| soundray | ronzilla: yes, that sounds like a well-supported setup | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| soundray | Sylphid|work: okay, makes sense | 00:00 |
| Sylphid|work | soundray, since its working fine guess i was right.... looking back it prolly wasnt the safest choice | 00:00 |
| ronzilla | soundray, will the dual video work you think? | 00:00 |
| coeus | csilk, well both gstreamer extra plugins and ubuntu restricted extras both say "mp3 support" .. I'll reinstall both | 00:00 |
| MrD1 | hi doess any one know any thing here about aircrack and driver problems with the new ubuntu | 00:00 |
| Stargazer | is there a way to quit gnome-panel temporarily ? | 00:00 |
| Sylphid|work | soundray, thanks again for the help | 00:00 |
| csilk | djungelkraem, yeah I know the feeling, if you can live with the problems you have right now you can always wait a week for intrepid to be released then you can upgrade and see how the latest drivers go. That's what I'll be doing | 00:01 |
| soundray | ronzilla: yes, I think it will | 00:01 |
| soundray | Sylphid|work: pleasure | 00:01 |
| DavidCanarias | jrib: my error. I redid it and up came lots of info about files being overwritten | 00:01 |
| csilk | coeus, yeah, there's no harm in re-installing both | 00:01 |
| ronzilla | thanks for your help | 00:01 |
| jrib | DavidCanarias: then you've probably already run it once before | 00:01 |
| DavidCanarias | jrib: shall I paste and copy you in a pm message | 00:01 |
| outbri | Stargazer: pkill or killall gnome-panel | 00:01 |
| DavidCanarias | jrib: How can I delete or clear it to start again | 00:01 |
| Stargazer | outbri: i was thinking something like how i quit from nautilus so it doesn't run till i open a folder. ( nautilus -q ) | 00:02 |
| sanado | Hey there everyone, I have a problem with one of my flash cards, it's a 512MB card that for some reason stopped working in windows well over a year and a half ago (formatting it failed), but after switching to Ubuntu, I thought I'd give partitioning it with Gparted or fdisk a shot. I tried Gparted first because I'm a sucker for GUIs. Gparted showed that the drive existed (/dev/sdc) and that it was indeed 512MB, it also showed that it was unfo | 00:02 |
| sanado | rmatted. I tried to create a new partition but then it sai it needed to create a new disklabel, which I said was ok. After a while an error dialog came up saying "Error while setting new disklabel." After Gparted failed I went into the terminal and did some fdisking. I first formatted the entire thing, but that failed saying "The partition table has been altered! | 00:02 |
| jrib | DavidCanarias: it should be fine, just let it finish | 00:02 |

| LjL | sanado, the floodbot was being serious | 00:05 |
| jrib | DavidCanarias: nope | 00:05 |

| csilk | yeah one sec | 00:06 |
| csilk | djungelkraem, http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/xorg-driver-fglrx | 00:06 |

| demontager | 1 US doll=2 Pounds | 00:08 |
| csilk | hmm, i'll have to see how it goes ;) | 00:08 |
| genii | sanado: So after exiting fdisk you ran some command like: sudo mkfs.ext2 /dev/sdc1 ? | 00:08 |
| droopsta915 | Why does my computer stop working and goes into a black screen? I have a pastebin, can anyone help, please. http://paste.ubuntu.com/60725/ | 00:08 |
| sanado | genii: Yes, and it says that that device does not exist. | 00:08 |
| demontager | <soundray> Did you understand what i mean? | 00:09 |
| djungelkraem | csilk: mine has been added if X1900 counts as x1900-series meaning X1950Pro for example | 00:09 |
| _786soul | How can I get grub to work on an SD card to boot Backtrack 3 or Ubuntu? Everytime I start it I get an error | 00:09 |
| sanado | I think that has to do with "Error closing file" | 00:09 |
| genii | sanado: Does: sudo fdisk -l show it? | 00:09 |
| csilk | djungelkraem, I'm contacting the package maintainer to tell him he missed some cards off, there's no way the updated drivers dont support the High Def range... | 00:09 |
| soundray | demontager: yes, I think so... searching | 00:10 |
| djungelkraem | csilk: yeah do so | 00:10 |
| djungelkraem | csilk: do you think X1900 means X1950pro for example? | 00:10 |
| sanado | genii: Sadly no, "Disk /dev/sdc doesn't contain a valid partition table | 00:10 |
| sanado | " | 00:10 |
| sanado | I have also tried running partprobe and that didn't doanythign either | 00:11 |
| _786soul | why do I get an error "fille missing" when using grub to boot off an SD card? | 00:11 |
| csilk | djungelkraem, I'm not really sure, sometimes specific model numbers aren't written properly | 00:11 |
| sanado | _786soul: have you gotten it to boot succesfully before? | 00:11 |
| genii | sanado: You ran fdisk with duso when you changed the table of it? | 00:11 |
| csilk | I should think you would be fine though | 00:11 |
| djungelkraem | csilk: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/hppa/xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd theres both mine and yours | 00:11 |
| genii | sanado: With sudo rather | 00:11 |
| sanado | genii: yes I did | 00:12 |
| csilk | if there are problems when you try the new drivers be sure to file a bug report | 00:12 |
| demontager | <soundray> I also searched in, but can't find, only found russian soft FOX Pro and for windows | 00:12 |
| LjL | sanado, chances are that the drive is faulty, which the fact it took several minutes before it gave you an error strongly hints to (as well as the fact that it stopped working in windows) | 00:12 |
| _786soul | sanado: Backtrack 3 booted by istelf but as soon as I insstalled Ubuntu on another partition things went wayward and I keep getting the error | 00:12 |
| demontager | sorry I mean this Pro (ExchRate) | 00:13 |
| soundray | demontager: there is a panel applet called Invest. You can set it up to display currency exchange rates -- for real/$ the symbol would be BRLUSD=X | 00:13 |
| genii | sanado: Probably it's just kaput. You can only rewrite to them so many times | 00:13 |
| sanado | LjL: and there'd probably be no way of getting around that then? | 00:13 |
| _786soul | But it's a new partition and a brand new SD card... | 00:13 |
| droopsta915 | Why does my computer stop working and goes into a black screen? I have a pastebin, can anyone help, please. http://paste.ubuntu.com/60725/ | 00:13 |

| natalisushka | Hi, does kubuntu have a compiz manager? | 00:14 |
| venger | droopsta915, are you saying on boot up your screen switches from the splash progress bar to the text based startup output and then hangs? | 00:14 |
| csilk | djungelkraem, I'm in London. The driver you jsut linked me too, will that be included in the intrepid repo? | 00:14 |
| genii | sanado: You could try something like to fill the drive with zeros or such | 00:14 |
| csilk | *just | 00:14 |
| LjL | sanado: is there currently any important data on it? | 00:14 |

| === L3PP3RS is now known as Leppers | ||
| soundray | demontager: you have to select the currencies and click Convert. Then it will show the symbol in the result table. | 00:15 |
| sanado | LjL: no, no important data, However, one interesting thing is that the manager for the GBA does boot up, leading me to believe that the "OS" of the card is on an entirely different physcal part. | 00:16 |

| demontager | ok, thanks thats what i need soundray! | 00:16 |
| djungelkraem | csilk: i really dont know | 00:16 |
| kr0n05931 | how can I fix this? | 00:16 |
| genii | sanado: sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sdc This will take a while. | 00:16 |
| droopsta915 | venger:this happens when i'm logged in. sometimes i try to close a window and it goes into the prompts you see in the pastebin. | 00:16 |
| LjL | sanado: that's possibly, i've really no idea how the GBA would manage its stuff... | 00:16 |
| _786soul | exit | 00:16 |
| LjL | sanado: if you do what genii said, though, you'll also lose that | 00:16 |
| venger | dropbear, ok so perhaps the X server is crashing? does the machine hard lock and you cannot open a VT (ctrl-alt-f1) | 00:17 |
| nick327 | alright, for some reason, the shutdown icon on the top right of the screen doesn't work for me | 00:17 |
| nick327 | it just freezes up gnome | 00:17 |
| eitreach | Something is completely maxing my cpus. how can I find out what it is? I've tried looking at the system monitor, but it isn't very useful. | 00:17 |
| nick327 | i usually hit ctrl alt f1 and use the cli to shutdown | 00:17 |
| LjL | eitreach: "top" | 00:17 |
| nick327 | any ideas why the icon doesn't work? is this a known issue? | 00:17 |
| csilk | djungelkraem, there is no way they would remove support for our cards. I'll assume everything will "just work". I guess the driver will be moved over into the repo before the release date. | 00:17 |
| venger | oops i meant droopsta915 not dropbear | 00:17 |
| === Ascorbic is now known as Ascorbic_Acid | ||
| sanado | LjL: That is assuming that the "OS" is on that same physical drive. My theory is that I can't even read the section that contains the OS, It's a rather simple OS. | 00:18 |
| droopsta915 | venger: lol, its ok. yes it goes into the screen and i cant get out unless i push the power button on my computer. | 00:18 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | May someone tell me what to type to install compiz, Thanks | 00:18 |
| LjL | sanado: the GBA OS itself is most likely in the internal ROM | 00:19 |
| soundray | Ascorbic_Acid: which version of Ubuntu do you have? | 00:19 |
| LjL | Ascorbic_Acid: Compiz is installed by default in Ubuntu 8.04 | 00:19 |
| cs_student | How do I install an ubuntu .deb? | 00:19 |
| venger | droopsta915, so you did try ctrl-alt-f1 at that point? | 00:19 |
| LjL | !gdebi | cs_student | 00:19 |
| ubottu | cs_student: deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click (in Ubuntu) or click (in Kubuntu) on them to start the GDebi utility. | 00:19 |

| Craihhgney | i dont mean the basics of networking | 01:02 |

| sonyagm | jrib, is that a terminal command? | 01:02 |
| kroisis | Craihhgney, i'd suggest looking up http://www.ugu.com | 01:03 |

| soundray | JoseBravo: oh dear, you're going down the compile-from-source route... Okay, you need to 'sudo apt-get install build-essential', then try again | 01:10 |
| JoseBravo | soundray, I only want the ssh compiled maybe I dont need to do the make install | 01:11 |
| smart | soundray ?? | 01:11 |
| soundray | smart: your graphics are perfectly capable. I don't know why Second Life won't run. I suggest you contact Linden Labs and ask them about the problem. | 01:11 |

| JoseBravo | dulak, because the one that comes with ubuntu dosnt work for me. | 01:12 |
| sonyagm | Ok jrib, I edited it so it was at 1280x1024, but there's screen scrolling, so it's not truly at that resolution | 01:12 |

| jrib | sonyagm: ok, but it's hard to help you if start doing your own stuff | 01:12 |

| izinucs | dexter, did you upgrade to your current system or fresh install? | 01:55 |
| bloodscore | how to i get out of the /etc/modules thing? | 01:55 |
| usser | dexter, its not firefox's fault its most likely flash player that crashes | 01:55 |
| Coded1 | I following the https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing guide and it looks really good, will I have to do this each time my computer reboots? | 01:55 |
| sa-evo | Looks the same to me: http://paste.ubuntu.com/60769/ | 01:56 |
| dexter | izinucs: its fresh install, hardy heron | 01:56 |
| izinucs | dexter, and did you install any additional plugins afterwards? | 01:56 |
| ronzilla | what do i need for dell d400 laptop video drivers | 01:57 |
| dexter | izinucs; ya i did... | 01:57 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, are you shure? look at both, i dont see the segmentation faulty tree error, and you? | 01:57 |
| Babam | Hey I need some help, I've been using OSS for my sound, and I had wine configured to use it as well, well I had to make wine force quit while trying to get WoW working and my sound was gone, I switched to Pulse Audio Sound Server, and I still don't have sound in FireFox. Help? | 01:57 |
| dexter | usser; how do i update my swiftweasel | 01:57 |
| sa-evo | Ah, I scanned over it to quickly, hahaha. My bad. | 01:57 |
| izinucs | dexter, that might be part of the problem.. you could rename ~/.mozilla to something else and try Ff again and see if it happens. | 01:57 |
| usser | dexter, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade also go to adobe.com and get latest flashplayer .deb im not sure if it was updated in hardy | 01:58 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, :) | 01:58 |
| dexter | izinucs; kkk | 01:58 |
| soundray | passbe: it's mentioned in this post on the em28xx mailing list: http://www.mail-archive.com/em28xx@mcentral.de/msg01332.html | 01:58 |
| d4t4min3r | question... i cant add any like event notices to the callender in the top right corner without setting up evolution ? | 01:58 |
| sa-evo | So now I can go check for updates and work in Synaptic? | 01:58 |
| d4t4min3r | is there a way i can.. without setting up evolution | 01:58 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, but tell me if you see the damn error or not | 01:58 |
| Babam | Any one? | 01:59 |
| csilk | d4t4min3r, I'm pretty sure that calendar is just an extension of evolution so no? | 01:59 |
| passbe | soundray: champion thank you very much for your help | 02:00 |
| soundray | d4t4min3r: if you skip the email config, there isn't much to set up | 02:00 |
| soundray | passbe: pleasure. I'd still buy Hauppauge ;) | 02:00 |
| sa-evo | Okay, it all ran through just fine. Didn't see any error. | 02:00 |
| dexter | izinucs; opera isnt in my repository | 02:00 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, ok, the it seems to be working again :) | 02:00 |
| sa-evo | Thank you very much for the help. Should I run that cache removal everynow and then? | 02:01 |
| === lipsinV1 is now known as lipsin | ||
| LinuxFan | you dont want the opera in the repos, its outdated, get the .deb from opera's download page instead | 02:01 |
| soundray | dexter: maybe your issue with firefox can be fixed? | 02:01 |
| izinucs | dexter, see LinuxFan post above | 02:01 |
| dexter | soundray; how?? | 02:01 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, no you dont have to, only if the case you see again that problem, but i dont think so | 02:02 |
| soundray | dexter: I don't know, since I don't know what the issue is yet... | 02:02 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, and it whas a pleasure :) | 02:02 |
| izinucs | dexter, did you install the flash-nonfree from the repos? | 02:02 |
| cygoku_ | How can I set my Ubuntu to always open a folder using PCMan File Manager instead of Nautilus ?!?!?! | 02:02 |
| dexter | izinucs; ya i did... | 02:02 |
| soundray | dexter: have you got gnash installed as well? | 02:03 |
| dexter | soundray; its that my firefox suddenly closes..... | 02:03 |
| izinucs | dexter, k. just checking.. works for me. oh yea.. what soundray says.. don't have more than 1 "flash" installed at a time | 02:03 |
| sa-evo | Sounds good. I've got another question though... I use Rhythmbox for my music and such, but lately the Jamendo store won't load. The Magnatude one will though. I checked the sites for both and didn't see any announcements or anything to indicate they are having issues. Is there something I can do? | 02:03 |
| Puppy | Well, so far so bad, The Install CD just loads Busy box, and the alt dc juts flashes a tab at me for 10 mins | 02:03 |
| dexter | soundray; ya i did | 02:03 |
| Puppy | Any ideas ? | 02:03 |
| soundray | dexter: remove gnash. That should stop it crashing. | 02:03 |
| Puppy | Pici you baout ? | 02:04 |
| dexter | soundray; kk i'll do it now | 02:04 |
| Kingerlight | Quick question -- I just received a Live CD of Ubuntu 8.04.1 Desktop, and it froze during installation, so I checked the integrity. Said it found an error in 1 file. Should I just request a new CD? | 02:04 |
| Babam | Yes | 02:04 |
| Kingerlight | Boo | 02:04 |
| izinucs | Kingerlight, or download a fresh copy so you don't have to wait | 02:04 |
| dexter | soundray; done....now will it work without any problems | 02:05 |
| Kingerlight | Only problem with that is I can't reboot and install it alongside Windows, I have to install it on top | 02:05 |
| dexter | soundray; is it that firefox is the best browser | 02:05 |
| Kingerlight | Since an ISO emulation doesn't work when the computer's off lol | 02:05 |
| izinucs | dexter, make sure you close FF and reload | 02:05 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, sorry, dident know much about rhythmbox, but normally programs trow errors if you run them on a terminal, so try that, maybe you find some more information about the problem | 02:05 |
| soundray | dexter: restart firefox when you're done. Then it should be okay | 02:05 |
| izinucs | Kingerlight, no.. but you can mount your drive.. save the iso there and burn it | 02:05 |
| Kingerlight | Hm | 02:06 |
| Kingerlight | So I can | 02:06 |
| Babam | Hey I need some help, I've been using OSS for my sound, and I had wine configured to use it as well, well I had to make wine force quit while trying to get WoW working and my sound was gone, I switched to Pulse Audio Sound Server, and I still don't have sound in FireFox. Help? | 02:06 |
| Kingerlight | Didn't think about that | 02:06 |
| soundray | dexter: if not, come back and ask again | 02:06 |
| dexter | izinucs; ya i'll do dat,,,,but can u explain y my swiftweasel is also crashing | 02:06 |
| Kingerlight | Thanks izi! | 02:06 |
| dexter | soundray; much thankful buddy | 02:06 |
| izinucs | dexter, sorry don't use swiftweasel.. | 02:06 |
| izinucs | Kingerlight, np | 02:06 |
| dexter | y so?? | 02:06 |
| Puppy | Anyone any idea why both of the installers would fail ? | 02:06 |
| dexter | izinucs: y so?? | 02:06 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, you have upgraded that package? (rythmbox) | 02:06 |
| cygoku_ | How can I set my Ubuntu to always open a folder using PCMan File Manager instead of Nautilus ?!?!?! | 02:07 |
| soundray | dexter: swiftweasel will have had just the same conflict between flashplugin-nonfree and gnash | 02:07 |
| misc-- | if I want to install ubuntu on a xeon, do I just use the standard i386 install? | 02:07 |
| izinucs | dexter, swiftweasel is FF rebranded.. I've never loaded it | 02:07 |
| sa-evo | I'll have to try that, once I figure out really how to run stuff in the Terminal. I just did what usually solves similar problems (at least in Windows XP), trying to do an uninstallation and re-installation (but got the issue with the package manager). | 02:07 |
| sa-evo | the_lost_one, nope, didn't upgrade it. | 02:07 |
| dexter | soundray, izinucs; now i understand the problem..... | 02:07 |
| aflack | Can someone help me with my sound... its all staticy and often lags and echos... | 02:08 |
| soundray | misc--: depends on your Xeon. Recent ones run more efficiently with the 64bit version (you may still prefer i386 for compatibility with closed-source packages) | 02:08 |
| aflack | this happens whenever any sound tries to go through them | 02:08 |
| feroxjb | New drivers perhaps? | 02:08 |
| aflack | where to get them and how do i know which sones\ | 02:08 |
| misc-- | soundray: ahh ok, this one is about 3 or 4 years old, so probably safe to stick with i386 | 02:08 |
| izinucs | aflack, what does it sound like when sound doesn't try to go through them? :) | 02:08 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, just type as normal user on a terminal rythmbox and make the program crash or something it will tell you why | 02:08 |
| Puppy | no one can help me with this install /. | 02:09 |
| aflack | nothing lol | 02:09 |
| dexter | soundray, izinucs; do u know any gud messengers...i used pidgin....but then it doesnt support voice chat...i login with yahoo and gtalk | 02:09 |
| soundray | misc--: is it dualcore? | 02:09 |
| sa-evo | I typed in: rhythmbox music player, but just got Segmentation fault. | 02:09 |
| aflack | izinucs: sounds like nothing | 02:10 |
| izinucs | dexter, nope.. other than Gizmo which is sorta like skype.. | 02:10 |
| misc-- | soundray: I'm pretty sure it's not, no | 02:10 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, just rythmbox :) | 02:10 |
| Puppy | well that sux, guess ill erm.. try and fix it on my own .. | 02:10 |
| izinucs | aflack, ah good.. if it was any different I'd wonder... | 02:10 |
| sa-evo | Tried that too, got the same thing. | 02:10 |
| aflack | izinucs: so how do i know which drivers to get and where to getem | 02:11 |
| JoseBravo | jrib, Im doing kill -9 pid but the process continue running with the same pid :S | 02:11 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, can you paste that? | 02:11 |
| soundray | misc--: you can't go wrong with i386 | 02:11 |
| dexter | izinucs; soundray; hey i used firefox now...it just closed by itself again...i just restarted the application and used it | 02:11 |
| izinucs | !sound | aflack | 02:11 |

| dexter | soundray; do i have 2 do that every time i open firefox | 02:12 |
| soundray | dexter: then see if you can make it crash again | 02:12 |
| LightTitan | Having problems with an applet in firefox. Can't get it to run. I try to select add the URL to whitelist but it just locks up my Firefox. I added the URL manually, but it still says it can't run it. Here is the error it gives me: http://pastebin.com/m264328b9 | 02:12 |

| soundray | dexter: can you provoke the crash? | 02:14 |
| michaelwilliamca | ok thanks sorry about that didnt mean to seem really impatient | 02:14 |
| dexter | soundray; in the sense | 02:15 |
| dexter | ?? | 02:15 |

| soundray | Puppy: have a look at the forums, e.g. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=234641 | 02:17 |
| sa-evo | the_lost_one, yes, it was. Now it isn't even starting up. | 02:17 |

| soundray | slayton: ask in #ubuntu+1 -- intrepid is offtopic here | 02:18 |
| bonhoffer | anyone know a good app to edit pdf files on ubuntu? | 02:19 |

| bonhoffer | PDFEdit is pretty lame | 02:19 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, try renaming your prefrences directory /home/sa/.rhythmbox and see if now starts | 02:19 |
| izinucs | bonhoffer, pdfedit is in the repos .. I haven't had much success with it.. one page at a time and you can use Inkscape.. also I heard that the new Openoffice 3.0 gives pdf edit capability | 02:20 |
| soundray | Puppy: it's impossible to predict without knowing why it's not booting | 02:20 |
| Ceiling_Cat | How do I recover a deleted svg (which foremost cannot undelete)? | 02:20 |
| dexter | soundray; kkk | 02:20 |
| LightTitan | what does "GNU Classpath's security implementation is not complete." mean when I am trying to use a logmein.com webpage in firefox? | 02:20 |
| Puppy | soundray - well its installed fine within windows, and i dont get any error messages, lookign for somewhere to head next on the forums now | 02:20 |
| soundray | bonhoffer: I've had best results (albeit with limitations) importing PDF into kword | 02:21 |
| bonhoffer | izinucs, yeah it is a very clunky program -- i guess i could try acrobat over wine -- i was hoping for a really good app, but i guess linux might not be ready for easy pdf sorting | 02:21 |
| bonhoffer | i have never installed wine -- does it really hurt performance? | 02:21 |
| izinucs | bonhoffer, pdf can be converted to ps and then loaded in other programs. | 02:21 |
| LightTitan | not of your Linux | 02:21 |
| === brown is now known as Guest28260 | ||
| soundray | dexter: exit firefox and start it normally. Open about:plugins as the URL, select the entire page and paste it on http://paste.ubuntu.com | 02:22 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | bonhoffer: I don't think it hurts anything. | 02:22 |
| LightTitan | In Firefox whenever I try to trust any applet it freezes Firefox, any suggestions? | 02:23 |
| bonhoffer | izinucs, so here is my problem -- we are paperless, all our bills, etc. when i scan in I get a large pdf -- i need to split out and sort all the files, this is really tedious with acrobat -- hoping for a better solution on linux -- but not sure if there is one | 02:23 |
| sa-evo | Okay, I'll try that, and be right back. | 02:23 |
| soundray | Puppy: the fact that wubi works indicates that the CD boot has trouble reading your CD-ROM drive | 02:23 |

| RyeBrye | If I want to use distcc on my amd64 ubuntu machine to help compile stuff off of a normal i686 machine - do I need to build a cross compiler to get it to work properly? | 02:23 |
| michaelwilliamca | from my experience it doesnt hurt nay thing... only thing is is when its running ( on my box anyway) it sucks up most of my ram.. i dont have all that much arm any way so i would say depends on your box's specs | 02:23 |
| soundray | bonhoffer: there is Ubuntu-specific help for wine | 02:24 |

| bonhoffer | thanks ubottu | 02:24 |

| PrymaL | I've upgraded to 8.10 beta this morning, anyone got any idea's why the session manager is not remembering the running programs? | 02:24 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | bonhoffer: Yes, Wine shouldn't hurt your performance.. but I never really got much to work with it.... But i heard it can run lots of things.. Even world of warcraft. =) | 02:24 |
| izinucs | PrymaL, because it's beta? you should be asking in #ubuntu+1 | 02:25 |

| sa-evo | Back, the_lost_one. Okay, how do I rename the preferences folder without the program starting up? I went to my /home/sa directory but there isn't a folder like that. | 02:29 |
| izinucs | bonhoffer, I hate switching keyboard or having to turn around to use a different machine.. so VM works for me. | 02:29 |
| kpuljek | so, if i upgraded the nvidia driver to 177 and have noticed that i have glitches with it, and restored the old driver, and restored the old xorg.conf, why does ubuntu keep telling me that it's unable to start the nvidia kernel, and keeps running in low graphics mode? where else does ubuntu store graphic information? | 02:29 |
| bonhoffer | vbox should work great | 02:29 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, you enabled "see hidden files" on nautilus? | 02:29 |
| bonhoffer | is that in the ubuntu repositority | 02:29 |

| kandjar | bye | 02:30 |
| sa-evo | Oh, nope. I was wondering how to do that too. | 02:30 |
| izinucs | bonhoffer, it does if you get it from vbox.. w/usb support.. vmware I use the beta version which allows me access to the vm from any machine through FF | 02:30 |

| fsufitch | i was wondering if anyone else is having issues with the nvidia restricted drivers for hardy. ever since i installed hardy a few days ago, and i installed the restricted drivers, my computer no longer seems to have shader support for programs. the ones i have tested it with are (yes, games) toribash and sauerbraten, both native to linux. anyone else encountered this? | 02:38 |
| Tigion | Nah, I've got 8.04 | 02:39 |
| xuan | izinucs,i done those,but the software said not find ligGl.so.1,look like it find liggl.so.1 in /usr/lib32 | 02:39 |

| izinucs | xuan, this is beyond me.. sorry .. maybe someone else can help | 02:39 |

| Tigion | I dual boot vista 64 bit home premium | 02:40 |
| Tigion | Is this common? | 02:40 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, so you renamed the .rhythmbox and tryed to start it ? | 02:40 |
| fsufitch | Tigion, is your ubuntu 64 bit too? | 02:40 |
| sa-evo | There isn't a .rhythmbox in that directory at all. | 02:40 |

| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 02:41 |
| fsufitch | Tigion, i've *personally* had issues with ubuntu 64-bit, 8.04 and 8.10b both | 02:41 |
| brand0con | ronzilla you might want to try editing your xorg.conf file | 02:41 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, then ok, go ahead with reinstalling/upgrading rhythmbox | 02:41 |
| Tigion | Yeah, I figured 64 bit would cause some problems | 02:41 |
| pure | i am newbe, i have problem with my ubuntu 8.04. my desktop usually trouble when startup. always appear UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY ; RUN fsck MANUALLY | 02:41 |
| fsufitch | Tigion, i think there are some issues with gtk or xulrunner on 64 bit or some other weirdness | 02:41 |
| Tigion | you got any advice or the whatnot? | 02:41 |
| brand0con | but be cautious and back up the file before doing anything | 02:41 |
| Tigion | Mm. | 02:41 |
| fsufitch | i never got to the bottom of it, but just found workarounds in forums, lp bugs, etc | 02:42 |
| Tigion | Alright | 02:42 |
| fsufitch | Tigion, my honest recommendation is to install 32 bit ubuntu :-P for me it works fine on my 64 bit machine | 02:42 |
| Tigion | I'll look at the forums | 02:42 |
| sa-evo | the_lost_one, okay, will do. Thanks for your help (even though I'm probably really slow at this). | 02:42 |
| ronzilla | brandoc0n: can you point me in a direction, not sure how to do that | 02:42 |
| the_lost_one | sa-evo, np, that your time for this :) | 02:42 |
| pure | How to run FSCK manually | 02:43 |
| sa-evo | Oh great... Now the package manager is doing the exact same thing again. | 02:43 |
| Vantrax | there are too many problems with the 64bit linux destros still | 02:43 |
| brand0con | ronzilla: /etc/X11/xorg.conf is the file youre going to want to backup and maybe manually edit. have you installed envy? | 02:43 |
| Vantrax | aside from the fact that flash doesnt work in x64 | 02:43 |
| jrib | Vantrax: flash works fine | 02:44 |
| Vantrax | oohh they fixed that did they? | 02:44 |
| ronzilla | nope, im pretty new to this.... | 02:44 |

| Vantrax | he he he bout time, i gave up on it and used 32bit after fussing over it for a month or two | 02:45 |
| the_lost_one | pure, just type fsck and hit enter key, every question it ask's you, hit enter, when it has finished type exit, and reboot | 02:45 |
| brand0con | ronzilla: sudo apt-get install envy-ng i believe | 02:45 |
| fsufitch | i'm asking again, but has anyone but me had problems with shaders with the nvidia restricted drivers? | 02:45 |
| Vantrax | probably:P have you checked the ubuntuforums? | 02:45 |
| sa-evo | Okay, sorry to bug you about it again, but what was the Terminal code that clears the cache for Synaptic (since that worked for this issue)? | 02:45 |

| bonhoffer | dsmith_, thanks | 03:22 |
| College_trained | aflack: go to system > administration > software sources and enable it there | 03:24 |
| genii | aflack: Open up Synaptic Package Manager. Go to "Settings" then choose "Repositories" make sure all the ones in there are checked off | 03:24 |
| aflack | they are | 03:24 |
| genii | aflack: Alternately follow College_trained's advice | 03:24 |

| m1dn1ght | Hey guys - I installed Flash 10 but it's acting quite buggy for me and I wan't to revert back. I installed it via a .deb file so I'm not sure how to uninstall. | 03:25 |
| jrib | m1dn1ght: synaptic | 03:25 |
| m1dn1ght | jrib: don't know why that didn't occur to me :) Cheers. | 03:25 |
| genii | aflack: What Ubuntu are you running? | 03:26 |

| jrib | for 64bit | 03:27 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | Anyone wouldn't happen to have any ideas to make the scroll wheel on the mouse go slower? Mine is extremly fast and the "mouse" options on ubuntu doesn't have it. | 03:27 |
| aflack | why does it work in vista | 03:27 |
| jrib | aflack: what does that have to do with anything? | 03:27 |
| aflack | well its vista 64bit | 03:27 |
| Kiraffe | Hi, I just updated my sound with a new amarok update i just had like yesterday, and now my sound is all fsck'd up. I can not hear a thing. When i turn up the sound all the way its fuzzy and very low sound. I have tried messing with the sound preferences already and no results. Can someone help me? | 03:27 |
| jrib | aflack: sun does not provide a 64bit java plugin for linux. Either use an open java like gcjwebplugin or install 32bit firefox (see !java64) | 03:28 |
| genii | aflack: In Terminal: echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy multiverse" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list | 03:28 |
| jorg1 | thanks dsmith | 03:28 |
| genii | aflack: Then: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin | 03:28 |
| jrib | genii: that does not exist on 64bit | 03:28 |

| prometheanfire | I seem to be having an issue with the nvidia driver in my ubuntu install | 03:33 |
| ezzieyguywuf | if i want to try out kubuntu as opposed to the gnome ubuntu i'm running now, would just installing KDE and re-logging in do it for me, or would a fresh install give me a smoother and more accurate experience of what the new KDE environment is like 'properly' integrated. | 03:33 |
| === pipegeek is now known as Guest8241 | ||
| GourdCaptain | I can't get the .deb package of unetbootin to install. I enter my password and the installer shows back up, refreshes its state, and quits. | 03:34 |
| prometheanfire | just installing kde will be fine | 03:34 |
| jken146 | ezzieyguywuf: Just install kubuntu-desktop and log out and in again. | 03:34 |
| === pipegeek_ is now known as pipegeek | ||
| ezzieyguywuf | jken: and that will be completely identical to a fresh install of a kubuntu image? | 03:34 |
| jken146 | GourdCaptain: go to unetbootin.sourceforge.net and get it from there. Make executable and run the file. easy | 03:35 |
| ezzieyguywuf | is kubuntu the best integration of KDE or would somethin like mandrake be smoother? | 03:35 |
| kriel | Okay; so. I'm on a laptop with a synaptics touchpad. Using Xubuntu, earlier today; i copied my xorg.conf out. I had the touchpad set up using the synaptics driver to not listen to scrolling or tapping events. Now; using the same xorg.conf, it won't shut off. Is there a way to tell what devices the current X screen is using? | 03:35 |
| genii | ezzieyguywuf: Or the kubuntu-kde4-desktop | 03:35 |
| GourdCaptain | I'm having this problem with every .deb also. Gpodder 0.13, usb-creator, also. | 03:35 |
| ezzieyguywuf | genii: whats the difference? | 03:35 |
| jken146 | ezzieyguywuf: It's ther same thing | 03:35 |
| kriel | (Oh; I installed ubuntu; and copied the xorg.conf from old xubuntu -> new ubuntu) | 03:35 |
| genii | ezzieyguywuf: kubuntu-dekstop is kde3.5 kubuntu-kde4-desktop is kde4 | 03:36 |
| ezzieyguywuf | genii: oh ok. | 03:36 |
| ezzieyguywuf | finally, i've done this once before and had all the KDE apps show up in my gnome session. is there a way to avoid this? | 03:36 |
| prometheanfire | whenever I try to use the nvidia driver it gives me a blank screen at login | 03:37 |
| Lilinallte | ezieyguywuf: I've had both installed (kubuntu and the 'normal' gnome ubuntu). Main difference for me was, oddly, that the kubuntu install didn't recognize all my hardware correctly, and the gnome one did... | 03:37 |
| Lilinallte | so it's more than 'just' a different desktop:) | 03:37 |
| ezzieyguywuf | lilinalte: i find that very interesting. | 03:37 |
| Lilinallte | believe me, so did I:) | 03:38 |
| ezzieyguywuf | well then, is there a way to change the focus characteristics in gnome like there is in kde? as in, instead of having to click to focus a wndow, i can just hover the mouse? | 03:38 |
| GourdCaptain | Hello? How can I fix Gdeb? | 03:38 |
| kpoman | hi to all ! guys, how do we know all the files that compose a package ? is there a database or some file listing the package contents after installed ? | 03:38 |
| ezzieyguywuf | eh, nvm found it in system>preferences>windows | 03:39 |
| ezzieyguywuf | but its not as robust as what i saw in kde.... | 03:39 |
| Enissay | i've a problem of cutting characters from a terminal: http://pastebin.com/d5b38e157, what i want is to cut sparately the two temperatures | 03:39 |
| joeb3_ | kpoman, dpkg -L packagename. Get the name of the package with dpkg -l. | 03:39 |
| kpoman | joeb3_: where are all the package descriptions in the filesystem ? | 03:40 |
| ezzieyguywuf | is there a package that extends the options of the focus windows options in gnome-metacity? | 03:40 |
| kpoman | joeb3_: say for example in gentoo you got /var/db/pkg and there you have all | 03:40 |
| joeb3_ | kpoman, don't know if they are in the filesystem | 03:40 |
| GourdCaptain | Can I just not install too recent of packages? | 03:40 |
| Sammy | Dear all, Please help me my acer aspire 4520 the sound card not working. help me pls?? | 03:41 |
| Pici | GourdCaptain: Whats wrong with the packages in the repositories? | 03:41 |
| ezzieyguywuf | eff it, i'm goin to check out kde | 03:41 |
| GourdCaptain | Pici: Some aren't availible in the repositories, others I just want new features. | 03:42 |
| GourdCaptain | The packages are listed on the app's websites as being for Ubuntu/Debian, so... | 03:42 |
| tarelerul1 | I have wireless card I use ndiswrapper for it. Just sudo modprobe ndiswrapper does not make it so I can use my wireless card. remember running b43 then ndiswrapper . Then removed b43 and re-load ndiswrapper and my card worked ,but it don't any more. How should I load it ? | 03:42 |
| genii | Enissay: sudo hddtemp /dev/sda /dev/sdb | cut -d' ' -f3 might work | 03:42 |
| Lilinallte | Sammy: I remember finding something through Google on that, involving changing from Alsa to one of the others... maybe check on Google? | 03:42 |
| Lilinallte | running on an acer 9920 myself:) | 03:43 |

| bullgard4 | What is the function of the file /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-21-generic? | 03:44 |

| MindVirus | http://pastebin.com/d1174a7fa | 03:44 |
| MindVirus | I don't know what to do. | 03:45 |
| MindVirus | I ran quodlibet and I can't start it. | 03:45 |
| MindVirus | I tried reinstalling a bunch of shit. | 03:45 |
| Pici | GourdCaptain: How are you running it? | 03:45 |
| dulak | bullgard4: that's an initial ram disk used to boot | 03:45 |
| Enissay | genii: nope | 03:45 |
| GourdCaptain | Double clicking on the downloaded package, hitting install, entering password. | 03:45 |
| MindVirus | Any suggestions? | 03:45 |
| GourdCaptain | Synaptic works, though. | 03:45 |
| GourdCaptain | (As in, synaptic still installs things. It doesn't have what I want to install.) | 03:46 |
| aijam | I installed vncserver and config xstartup. Then install vncviewer in client with windows xp. When I connect with vncserver, only gray background and a terminal display, no desktop appear. | 03:46 |
| aijam | I execute some program like firefox. It open and work normally. | 03:46 |
| aijam | I run startx and system show me " X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting.". | 03:46 |
| Pici | GourdCaptain: does dpkg -l packagename say that its installed? | 03:46 |
| ShiftyPowers | anyone running intrepid ibex and can't get the gnome panel to change when you change a theme? | 03:46 |
| ignacio | Hola a todos | 03:47 |
| Pici | !ibex | ShiftyPowers | 03:47 |
| ubottu | ShiftyPowers: Intrepid Ibex is the code name for Ubuntu 8.10, due October 30th, 2008 - Warning lots of broken software between now and October 30th! - Use #ubuntu+1 for support, *NOT* #ubuntu | 03:47 |
| ShiftyPowers | sorry | 03:47 |
| GourdCaptain | Pici: No, it does not. | 03:47 |
| dulak | aijam: by default vnc runs the crappiest window manager, you can edit the file it uses and tell it to start gnome, I just don't remember the name of the file to edit | 03:47 |
| genii | Enissay: Strange. It worked here when I did it on my 6 hd all which have varying name lengths | 03:47 |
| MindVirus | Anyone? | 03:47 |
| GourdCaptain | Pici: Should I try using Synaptic to reinstall Gdebi? | 03:47 |
| dubsided | Which OSX like launcher do you all recommend? | 03:48 |
| dubsided | I mean like Application Dock | 03:48 |
| Pici | GourdCaptain: You can try | 03:48 |
| joeb3_ | dulak, xstartup in .vnc | 03:48 |
| dulak | aijam: there you go, xstartup file in .vnc directory | 03:48 |
| aijam | dulak: I have edit it and add a line to execute a windows manager "lxde". But It don't work . | 03:49 |
| dulak | aijam: did you put & at the end? | 03:49 |
| dulak | aijam: also can you run lxde from a normal X outside of vnc? | 03:50 |
| chetnick | Guys, i am about to change motherboard, am i gonna have to install clean ubuntu or i can use the old one? | 03:50 |
| GourdCaptain | Pici: Still doesn't work. *sigh* | 03:51 |
| College_trained | can anyone describe to me the difference between GNOME and KDE? | 03:52 |
| shiloh7_ | chetnick, when i swaped mine everything was fine, although, i bought a mother board by the same manufacturer, asus, not the same board though, everything was fine | 03:52 |
| aijam | dulak: Yes. I add & at the end of line. And Lxde work good in server. | 03:52 |
| mmcji | need some help | 03:52 |
| dulak | aijam: not sure what's wrong then | 03:53 |
| shiloh7_ | College_trained, thats a matter of taste and opinion, Gnome is more simplistic and user friendly than KDE | 03:53 |
| ziroday | College_trained: they are nearly impossible to explain, its the best to just try both yourself :) | 03:53 |
| chetnick | shiloh7_: ok thanks, mine is also the same manufacturer (gigabyte) with newer chipsets. | 03:53 |
| mmcji | I am trying to use recordmydesktop with the 64 bit version of xubuntu 8.04 | 03:53 |
| mmcji | sound works on the laptop, but I am not getting any sound on ogg video recordings | 03:53 |
| joeb3_ | aijam, gnome uses /usr/bin/gnome-session. is there a lxde-session? | 03:53 |
| mmcji | anyone worked through this before or have a direction i can look in | 03:54 |
| Lilinallte | College_trained: main diff to me, apart from the totally diff desktop, was that KDE had issues with my sound, build-in webcam and wireless, and gnome didn't have any issues... | 03:54 |
| shiloh7_ | College_trained, imo, when i migrated from windoze, KDE was a nightmare, Gnome was allot friendlier for me | 03:54 |
| College_trained | thanks shiloh7_ and ziroday | 03:54 |
| GourdCaptain | The command line version works. | 03:54 |
| genii | Enissay:Since your hard drive names have spaces in them maybe: sudo hddtemp /dev/sda /dev/sdb | cut -d':' -f3 instead | 03:54 |
| GourdCaptain | Running the GTK version with gksudo also works. | 03:56 |
| aijam | joeb3_: I found lxsession under /usr/bin/, and it seems this file has same function with gnome-session. | 03:56 |
| ronzilla | having a tough time getting my laptop video drivers working. its a dell d400 about 3-4 years old | 03:56 |
| ronzilla | it works as a clone screen, but i cant expand it | 03:56 |
| ronzilla | last thing i need to be able to do | 03:57 |
| joeb3_ | aijam, so try /usr/bin/lxsession & | 03:57 |
| ronzilla | :x | 03:57 |
| Q_Continuum | Gnome hangs every once in awhile, as do all apps I try to launch after that. I can interact with the desktop and any open apps, but the Gnome bars (top and bottom) lock up. Is this a Compiz bug, or something else? | 03:57 |
| wishie | anyone know where i can get a backported 2.6.27 kernel for hardy heron ? i want to test the hp-wmi stuff.. | 03:57 |
| bullgard4 | dulak: I have got informed what a RAM disk is. I think that the function of the file /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-21-generic is more than just being a RAM disk. | 03:58 |
| aijam | joeb3_: ** ERROR **: LXSession is already running | 03:58 |
| Enissay | genii: that works when i changed f3 to f4 : sudo hddtemp /dev/sda /dev/sdb | cut -d' ' -f4, but i still want to axtract the tempearatures separately not all off them at once | 03:58 |
| kc8pxy | why does ubuntu require a system reboot when i enable restricted drivers? | 03:58 |
| aijam | joeb3_: lxde is runing in server side. | 03:58 |
| dulak | bullgard4: it's the intial ram disk the kernel uses to boot, it contains a minimal filesystem with drivers for things like filesystems and what not that the kernel needs to boot | 03:58 |
| Pollywog | does anyone know whether the OSE version of Virtualbox has USB enabled? | 03:59 |

| bullgard4 | dulak: Thank you for explaining. | 04:00 |
| the_trapper | Pollywog, the OSE version of VirtualBox doesn't have USB...you have to use the "freeware" binary version to get that | 04:00 |

| tarelerul1 | Is there portable movie play like the ipod that is well supported in linux. I lost my ipod nano black 8gb . | 04:06 |
| fufinache | formode > google runs linux | 04:06 |
| ziroday | formode: you mean one already setup for you, or the actual software? | 04:06 |

| fufinache | haha | 04:06 |
| formode | ziroday, No I desire something like a @(Linux related word here).com email | 04:07 |
| kc8pxy | ziroday: there is software out there to do that.. gnu even, i believe :) | 04:07 |
| unavailable | is it possible to replace gnome | 04:07 |
| ziroday | kc8pxy: thanks :) | 04:07 |
| fufinache | unavailable > with which desktop environment? | 04:07 |
| ziroday | unavailable: yes | 04:07 |
| ganet | okay, under *-cpu:0 it says "width: 64 bits" | 04:07 |
| unavailable | well i scrapped ubuntu went to kubuntu | 04:07 |
| unavailable | now i got konquerer | 04:08 |
| ganet | but before that, it says "width: 32 bits" in the very beginning which is confusing | 04:08 |
| unavailable | and want to replace gnome-bar and anything else that can help make things faster | 04:08 |
| unavailable | but | 04:08 |
| unavailable | i do want to fully scrap nautilus first | 04:08 |
| mmcji | fufinache: cool, i had looked at auditor a few years ago when i was looking at forensics computing as a possible direction to go in. I have not see backtrack before. neat | 04:09 |
| kc8pxy | unavailable: is it simple to convert to kubuntu from within a ubuntu install? | 04:09 |
| unavailable | not sure | 04:09 |
| ziroday | unavailable: you could take a look at fluxbox or openbox as a window manager | 04:09 |
| unavailable | not fully there yet | 04:09 |
| mmcji | so you want to install it to had fixed disk? | 04:09 |
| fufinache | mmcji: the live CD /flash drive is cool, it's hard to install on the hard drive though | 04:10 |
| wishie | anyone know of a 2.6.27 kernel backport for hardy heron ? i need to test the HP-WMI stuff (which i believe it only in 2.6.27) | 04:10 |
| ziroday | wishie: the kernel will not be backported | 04:10 |
| === chris____ is now known as appellation | ||
| ziroday | wishie: you can use the intrepid livecd if you want to test it | 04:10 |
| wishie | ziroday: and if i find i need hp-wmi to make my laptop behave properly ? im forced to use intrepid ? | 04:11 |
| kc8pxy | ziroday: is the intrepid livecd pretty much set now? | 04:11 |
| ziroday | wishie: yes | 04:11 |
| wishie | well that is a very bad policy | 04:11 |
| ziroday | kc8pxy: more or less, ask for more info in #ubuntu+1 | 04:11 |
| ziroday | wishie: intrepid goes stable in 9 days, you can use it then and it (should) be as solid as hardy | 04:12 |
| fufinache | mmcji: makes cracking wep easier than install easier than using microsoft office | 04:12 |
| wishie | ziroday: and kde3.x ? | 04:12 |
| wishie | ziroday: i dont want to have to use kde4.x | 04:12 |
| mmcji | wep, i used to use kismet for that | 04:12 |
| ziroday | wishie: am not sure about kde, ask in #kubuntu, #kubuntu-kde4 or #kubuntu+1 | 04:12 |
| mmcji | but haven't messed with that sort of thing in a few years now | 04:13 |
| kc8pxy | wishie: IIRC intrepid has kde4 as standard. | 04:13 |
| fufinache | mmcji: kismet doesn't inject packets does it? | 04:13 |
| mmcji | sorry im of no use, | 04:13 |
| mmcji | i can't remember, i used it for some wireless audits at user conventions for my work | 04:13 |
| kc8pxy | wishie: but I'm no expert. | 04:14 |
| mmcji | like i said it has been a few years. | 04:14 |
| aflack | just curious, is there nay video editing software available for ubuntu 8.04?? | 04:14 |
| mmcji | kino | 04:14 |
| mmcji | there are several | 04:14 |
| mmcji | i personally like kino | 04:14 |
| aflack | whats a good noe | 04:14 |
| aflack | o | 04:14 |
| aflack | let me check it out one second | 04:14 |
| winferno | aflack: I'm using Blender at the moment, just learning it, but you can use it to do video editing / compositing, with audio. | 04:15 |
| aflack | winferno: check that out also | 04:15 |
| basti | and dvd authoring software? | 04:15 |
| ronzilla | anyone know the name of the video driver i need for a dell d400 laptop to run an external monitor | 04:15 |
| winferno | aflack: I have it all set up to render out x264 video, using ffmpeg. It's pretty cool, imo. | 04:16 |
| wishie | ziroday: oh joy.. kubuntu (intrepid) has kde4, and no kde3.. so i can upgrade to have 2.6.27, and no kde3, or stay on hardy (with kde3) and have no 2.6.27 kernel. | 04:16 |
| wishie | lovely. | 04:16 |
| ziroday | wishie: have you asked in #kubuntu about using kde 3.x in intrepid? | 04:16 |
| aflack | how do i make a .ogg from recordmydesktop to a .avi? | 04:16 |
| winferno | wishie: well, if you were on Windows, you'd be asking 'should I stick with windows XP or go to Vista'. =) | 04:17 |
| wishie | ziroday: i asked in #kubuntu+1 and my answer was "if you want to use kde3, dont upgrade to intrepid) | 04:17 |
| ziroday | wishie: well there's nothing more we can do for you, sorry | 04:17 |
| wishie | winferno: but this isnt the way with any other distro ive used (and ive used linux for around 10 years now). | 04:17 |
| winferno | aflack: are these audio files? | 04:17 |
| wishie | if i can get the patches applied to hardy kernels, ill apply them by hand to 2.6.27 | 04:17 |
| aflack | winferno: no its a screenrecorded video from recordmydesktop | 04:18 |
| winferno | wishie: I'm a relatively new convert from FreeBSD myself, so a lot of the Debian ways are new to me. | 04:18 |
| Gun_Smoke | what a jump | 04:18 |
| aflack | winferno:so do you know how to make a video .ogg to a .avi | 04:19 |
| winferno | aflack: well, you could give ffmpeg or mencoder a look. | 04:19 |
| gaintsura | d | 04:19 |
| formode | Anyone know any linux/open source related email providers? | 04:19 |
| mmcji | wishie: There is certainly nothing wrong with trying to do something your own way with linux, it just is not going to be easy or supportable. With FreeBSD, if you self compile from source you break other parts of the system, with ubuntu, if you install something outside of the rep's that's fine, but most of the time, it causes more trouble than it is work...imo | 04:20 |
| Gun_Smoke | formode, sdf | 04:20 |
| formode | gunsmoke, sdf? | 04:20 |
| jpur | formode, thunderbird? | 04:20 |
| winferno | aflack: ogg is a 'container' format, so maybe it's ogg/theora that you've got for the incoming video file? | 04:20 |
| frenchy_ | does anyone know if there is a way to add a file extension to multiple files where an extensions doesn't already exist | 04:20 |
| formode | jpur, Providers. People who host your email. | 04:20 |
| Gun_Smoke | formode, sdf.lonestar.org | 04:20 |
| formode | gun_smoke, Thank you | 04:21 |
| ziroday | aflack: there are many ways to do it, command line programs such as ffmpeg and mencoder can. You can use avidemux if you prefer a gui | 04:21 |

| smokeymirror | but i am able to connect my ipod and use gstreamer to play music | 04:38 |
| smokeymirror | i dont know if zune will be able to do the same thing | 04:38 |
| smokeymirror | i have close to the 120gb limit and i am having a tough time choosing, so i use ubuntu after i ditched vista | 04:39 |
| smokeymirror | so what im getting at is, is zune worth it, or just deal with the ipod? | 04:39 |
| Zappp | i cant get my wireless connection to work on ubuntu what should i do? also it wont let me type in the terminal when it asks for my password | 04:39 |
| smokeymirror | zappp when it ask for your password it still types | 04:40 |
| smokeymirror | just put your password and hit enter | 04:40 |
| Reaverbot | Zappp: ¿You can enter from another pc? | 04:40 |

| n8tuser | Zappp-> wrong command to bring up an interface..its ifup wlan0 | 04:42 |
| Reaverbot | Zappp: If you put your pass, what happens? | 04:42 |
| musikgoat | and you cannot type anything, hitting enter doesn't return you with an invalid password? | 04:42 |
| Vantrax | err that command will still work | 04:42 |

| Zappp | but musikgoat how can i down the drivers on there if i have no internet connection? | 04:58 |
| musikgoat | you can access the ipod and throw stuff in it in ubuntu | 04:58 |

| halberd | it says that the ABI version is wrong (1) when it should be 2 | 05:21 |
| Tristam | I'm pretty sure I could do that with pf on my pfsense box, but I have no idea how to do it in linux | 05:21 |

| Vantrax | your trying to run compiz window manager? | 05:22 |
| Vantrax | or emerald or beryl or? | 05:22 |
| halberd | no actually I was trying to run the enlightenment window manager, not that I have a special preference, but I'm having a problem just getting the X server set up | 05:23 |
| Vantrax | hrm, sorry, never used that one | 05:23 |
| halberd | I did apt-get install xserver-xorg | 05:23 |
| halberd | also apt-get install xdm | 05:23 |
| halberd | then I tried to run Xorg -configure | 05:23 |
| Deadboys | does anyone know how to go about setting up an ipv6 broker? | 05:23 |
| chaddy | halberd: why not just aptitude install enlightenment and let it grab it's own dependencies? | 05:24 |
| SeaHorse | 41 | 05:24 |
| SeaHorse | et toi | 05:24 |
| halberd | I did apt-get install enlightenment but it couldn't run because there was no x server | 05:24 |
| halberd | I'm not 100% clear on the process for installing an x server and window manager from scratch | 05:25 |
| chaddy | hmm, seems flawed | 05:25 |
| isilion | problem with fglrx. launchin compiz or 3d games makes computer completely to hang up. in the desktop, or 2d games is ok. | 05:25 |
| chaddy | halberd: usually I'd just install ubuntu-desktop or similar and let it grab the lot | 05:26 |
| RHorse | halberd, i'd a thot enlightenment would have brought in the X server as a dependency, no? | 05:26 |
| ret | macd: hmm, i'm using gnome-term; but the fonts available are pretty shit. | 05:26 |
| ret | i guess i can make do. | 05:26 |

| halberd | well I don't know | 05:27 |
| eternalswd | I just installed a LiteOn dvd drive into my machine. It has vendor ATAPI, model iHAS120 6, revision 7L08. It is supposed to support burning dvd+rw and dvd-rw, but when I run cd-info, it lists both as not being able to write. Is there something that I need to do to enable this? Could cd-info be getting bad info? | 05:27 |
| halberd | when I try to run enlightenment it says it could not connect to the display named in $DISPLAY | 05:27 |
| halberd | which is :0 | 05:27 |
| RHorse | halberd, google installing x server ubuntu enlightenment or similar | 05:27 |
| halberd | and it suggests further that the problem is that I have no X server running | 05:27 |
| chaddy | halberd: you don't run window managers directly | 05:28 |
| chaddy | halberd: try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 05:28 |
| halberd | when I run xdm it exits with no error, but then when I run enlightenment again it gives me the same error | 05:28 |

| halberd | also I tried running xinit but it exited with an error that it can't find /etc/X11/X which I guess should point to a server | 05:29 |

| Marupa | Squichie, Packets of information are sent and decoded by clients. | 05:39 |
| aaron_sERVer6 | okay. I have a friend who has BSoD on win XP HomeEdition and I want to thrill them with Ubuntu. They hired me to fix said machine, but I don't support Windows or other MS products in the least. So, I wanted to provide my client with Ubuntu and I don't know if I should give a liveCD or install to HD. The clients hard drive is NOT broken and I was able to access all parts from my ubuntu box. What should I do? | 05:39 |
| Squichie | oh, thanks | 05:39 |
| Squichie | thats what I was going for | 05:39 |

| aaron_sERVer6 | They are no longer interested in using windows(a little help from me...LOL) and want to use another.. more reliable sys to access Limewire and such... still give liveCD. PLUS, I cannot provide support for windows or MS products as they are totally against my end desire for my clients. | 05:42 |

| chaddy | ;) | 05:50 |
| Vantrax | lol | 05:50 |
| Tyrath | - ok is there anyway I can rebind alt-f1? | 05:50 |
| Vantrax | that allows bindings | 05:50 |
| Tyrath | or do I need ccsm? | 05:50 |
| Vantrax | for desktop actions and launching apps | 05:50 |
| Tyrath | ah k | 05:51 |
| Tyrath | will install it now | 05:51 |
| nir0 | do you use compiz? | 05:51 |
| Vantrax | some good info in ubuntu forums for compiz | 05:51 |
| nir0 | 1st question :) | 05:51 |
| eternalswd | Tyrath, go to System->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts | 05:51 |
| Tyrath | um its telling me it cant find package ccsm | 05:51 |
| Tyrath | eternalswd: I tried that the other day. only works for window shuffling and key binds | 05:52 |

| Tyrath | nope | 05:52 |

| a1len | chaddy: thanks man | 05:53 |
| chaddy | a1len: handy to keep any drivers about | 05:53 |
| eternalswd | Tyrath, what are you wanting alt-f1 to do? | 05:53 |
| a1len | chaddy: Where does the system default-store all the ones in the package manager? | 05:53 |
| nir0 | Tyrath: ok you should learn more about compiz-fusion, emerald, avant-window-navigator... use wikipedia.org for start | 05:54 |
| Joe_ | hi | 05:54 |
| Tyrath | - so that's going to help me bind | 05:54 |
| chaddy | a1len: /var/cache/apt, I think | 05:54 |
| Vantrax | those three make my linux box look nicer than OSX | 05:54 |
| cwraig | im looking for some kind of ubuntu benchmark app that i can use (i have a netbook with ubuntu installed on internal SSD and an external HDD and i want to compare overall performance) | 05:54 |
| Tyrath | - because i just installed it | 05:54 |
| Vantrax | lol | 05:54 |
| a1len | chaddy: Thank you very much. | 05:54 |
| Vantrax | there are settings in compiz to allow you to bind key combos to effects and programs | 05:55 |
| chaddy | a1len: /var/cache/apt/archives, even | 05:55 |
| Vantrax | so you can have one set to open the menu when you hit a combo | 05:55 |
| chaddy | a1len: you're welcome ;) | 05:55 |
| Vantrax | it does other nice things too | 05:55 |
| Tyrath | um... | 05:55 |
| Tyrath | compiz just changed my whole interface | 05:55 |
| nir0 | Tyrath: maybe yes... but binding keys is in gnome-keyboard-properties\ | 05:55 |
| Tyrath | like its made it like a mac | 05:55 |
| formode | <cwraig>, I beleive Compiz has a benchmarking tool. If not try to use synaptic. :) | 05:55 |
| Vantrax | lol:P | 05:56 |

| Tyrath | compiz seems to be heavy GUI | 05:56 |
| Vantrax | you can disable those | 05:56 |
| Vantrax | you dont need to run all of it | 05:56 |
| Vantrax | thats what options are for | 05:56 |
| nir0 | Tyrath: smthng like Alt-F* | 05:56 |
| Vantrax | i run none of the extras | 05:56 |

| cwraig | formode, thanks ill have a look | 05:57 |
| Tyrath | i like a chill interface that does the job when i cbf using console :P | 05:57 |
| Tyrath | i get that with ubuntu alone | 05:57 |

| Squichie1 | I have a wireless connection which connects me to the Internet, and a Ethernet connection which connects me to a file server. I can be connected at both times, however, when I have the Ethernet, my Internet stops working, presumably because it is trying to receive it from the file server, and not the wireless. how can I fix this in intrepid? | 06:14 |

| Deadboys | how can i change the port i ssh into | 06:18 |
| Vantrax | not till the next version | 06:18 |
| Tyrath | I'm trying to Ctrl, Alt, Super and Shift | 06:19 |
| Tyrath | according to this tutorial | 06:19 |
| Vantrax | 3.0 should be in 8.10 but it wont be added to the repos for 8.04 | 06:19 |
| Vantrax | Tyrath: you need a non special key as well, not just modifier keys | 06:19 |
| Tyrath | why do i get the feeling this key binding thing is just going to be for window modifications and stuff, like I want to bind combinations of keys to open files and the like... | 06:19 |
| Vantrax | you can do that too:P | 06:20 |
| Tyrath | lol | 06:20 |
| chaddy | Deadboys: sshd -p <port> | 06:20 |
| Tyrath | not i my current state, I can't even work out how to open the bind keys thing :P | 06:20 |
| Vantrax | but the primary purpose for it is to bind things to open menus, and run apps | 06:20 |
| Flannel | Deadboys: As far as the server is concerned? or from clientside? | 06:20 |
| Vantrax | for example i have ctrl alt delete set to open the system monitor | 06:20 |

| nir0 | Tyrath: ok wait i'll say you wht to do | 06:21 |

| Tyrath | markylicious: there's a ubuntu plugin for firefox | 06:32 |
| Tyrath | i would give you the address if I new it | 06:32 |
| Tyrath | -use the plugin to install ubuntu | 06:33 |
| markylicious | Im trying to run the disc that I have but it always give me a black screen with bunch of errors | 06:33 |
| Tyrath | i have XP also and it worked for me | 06:33 |
| Tyrath | markylicious: oh. can't help you there | 06:33 |
| markylicious | I would love to install it but I dont have it installed yet | 06:33 |
| Flannel | Deadboys: edit /etc/apt/sources.list and add in universe (more likely uncomment it), but on... all of the non-dapper versions, its enabled by default. Have you updated your package cache since installing? | 06:33 |

| StevenX | Flannel: thanks. I'll try to find it. | 06:35 |
| Flannel | murlidhar: five minutes before that. | 06:35 |
| murlidhar | Flannel: what is the interval time i should repeat my question ? | 06:35 |
| Flannel | murlidhar: 20-30 minutes is generally a reasonable timeframe. | 06:36 |

| riegersn | Ascorbic_Acid, and show me a pc that is sold without a cd/dvd drive, and if he built it himself he most likely would not need this help ;) | 06:40 |
| riegersn | i stand corrected | 06:40 |
| riegersn | ;) | 06:40 |
| jon_high9000 | sorry to intrude but i have been tried to load gdeskets and it won't load for some apparent reason. | 06:40 |
| jim_p | does this package >> b43-fwcutter include some exotic or modified b43 module other than the kernel one? | 06:41 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | riegersn: Didn't mean it did not have a cd drive..... All im saying is I got C: and D: hard drive split into two and E:\ for my cd/dvd drive.... other then that i don't know what he talking about not paying attention. LoL | 06:41 |
| Deadboys | how do i remove python2.4 | 06:41 |
| markylicious | Once you have the CD, insert it into your CD-ROM drive and reboot your PC. | 06:41 |
| markylicious | If the computer does not boot from the CD (eg. Windows starts again instead), check your BIOS settings and fix as appropriate. | 06:41 |
| markylicious | If successfully booted from CD, the Ubuntu logo will be displayed on the screen. Press Enter to continue. | 06:41 |
| bullgard4 | What is a 'kernel image'? | 06:41 |
| Deadboys | i have python2.5 already and i didnt know | 06:41 |
| markylicious | i tried it.. I didnt work | 06:42 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | Who asked about running Ubuntu as an application? | 06:42 |
| Flannel | jim_p: that grabs the firmware from the card | 06:42 |
| |sonic| | Hi ! Is it ok to install Ubuntu inside windows and on external HDD ? (alongside the warning that it will slow down the disk transfer that way) | 06:42 |
| |sonic| | it's me | 06:42 |
| |sonic| | Ascorbic_Acid i asked | 06:42 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | well | 06:43 |
| Pooky | when I do a file list, some files show up with their permissions and other information displayed as ?'s, how do I remove them? | 06:43 |
| afinck86 | On average, how long does it take the normal person migrating from Windows to learn Linux, especially Ubuntu ? | 06:43 |
| isilion_ | afinck86, between a week and a month | 06:43 |
| afinck86 | thanks | 06:43 |
| Flannel | afinck86: Depends on what you want to do with it, of course. | 06:43 |
| whileimhere | Hi I am using XFCE as my desktop right now and when I add the volume manager to my taskbar (top or bottom) it doesnt show up. Any idea why? | 06:44 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | It does not hurt your windows install... I am running Ubuntu as an application now.. I don't know anything about an external drive as I have never used one.... As for performance on Ubuntu It is plenty fast for me, I don't think its much diff | 06:44 |
| jim_p | Flannel: and why is it different from the one in the kernel? | 06:44 |
| isilion_ | afinck86, just dont forget that most errors and issues are solved and can be viewed googling :) | 06:44 |
| |sonic| | Ascorbic_Acid, ty | 06:44 |
| |sonic| | do you tried video manipulations , editing ? | 06:44 |
| Kr0ntab | Ascorbic_Acid: heya. You referring to having installed Ubuntu using WUBI? | 06:45 |
| isilion_ | any idea what is AIGLX: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x23 to 0x72 in xorg.0.log? | 06:45 |
| |sonic| | more complex processes ? | 06:45 |
| Flannel | jim_p: The firmware is closed source, etc. I'm no expert. But even on windows, the "drivers" just know how to download and interface with the firmware on the hardware | 06:45 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | Kr0ntab: I am talking about installing ubuntu as an application inside windows | 06:45 |
| |sonic| | Ascorbic_Acid , i'm installing it now will tell u my opinion | 06:45 |
| Kr0ntab | yeah WUBI... cool. | 06:46 |
| jim_p | Flannel: i see, thank you | 06:46 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | Kr0ntab: what does WUBI mean? | 06:46 |
| Kr0ntab | http://wubi-installer.org/ | 06:46 |
| ryuho | ク | 06:46 |
| Kr0ntab | ubuntu installer for windows.... | 06:47 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | ok | 06:47 |
| |sonic| | kr0ntab what is your opinion abiut this method ? | 06:47 |
| |sonic| | ABOUT* | 06:47 |
| |sonic| | sorry for caps | 06:47 |
| Kr0ntab | |sonic|: no sweat. I think it's a wonderfully exciting way of installing Linux.... | 06:48 |
| |sonic| | yeah but the performance ? | 06:48 |
| |sonic| | i want to work video compositing | 06:48 |
| Kr0ntab | |sonic|: anythign that makes it easier for someone to experience Linux as easily as possible is a good thing... | 06:48 |
| |sonic| | so performance is very important | 06:48 |
| halberd2 | is it possible to test installing an aptitude package, but making it possible to clean-up everything afterwards if it doesn't quite work? | 06:48 |
| halberd2 | including cleaning up all installed dependencies | 06:49 |
| Vantrax | yep, the same way you installed it | 06:49 |
| Kr0ntab | |sonic|: almost no major performance hit... minor disk performance decrease... but other than that... you're using all of your hardware the way it was supposed to be... | 06:49 |
| |sonic| | cool | 06:49 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | |sonic|: I think it's very close to the same... but I have never used Ubuntu directly. You can always just delete it | 06:49 |
| halberd2 | well I can do apt-get remove <...> but that only removes the single package not its dependencies | 06:49 |
| |sonic| | kr0ntab , tyvm | 06:49 |
| |sonic| | Ascorbic_Acid , tnx | 06:50 |
| halberd2 | and then I can do apt-get autoremove to clean up SOME things | 06:50 |
| Raynes | I need to get a new modem before I can use ubuntu :( | 06:50 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | Who can tell me the shortcut for Force Quit please? | 06:51 |
| Vantrax | use the synaptic package manager | 06:51 |
| jim_p | Ascorbic_Acid: ctrl+c ??? | 06:51 |
| Vantrax | for both install and removal | 06:51 |
| Vantrax | then you know exactly what you added | 06:51 |
| Kr0ntab | |sonic|, Ascorbic_Acid: its a fully native installation.. with the exception of the disk. Instead of formatting or partitioning the hard drive.. you create a virtual disk that is merely a file located on your ntfs file system. it's mounted as a disk and you don't even know the difference.... | 06:51 |
| halberd2 | I don't have a window manager | 06:51 |
| halberd2 | I am working on the command line | 06:51 |
| Vantrax | ahh | 06:51 |
| halberd2 | I am TRYING to get a window manager | 06:51 |
| a1len | Is Madwifi-Tools the MadWifi patch that everyone always talks about? | 06:52 |
| yugo | hello,guys,how to modify read-only keys in gconf-editor? | 06:52 |
| xTheGoat121x | So, I've got an odd problem... I dual boot my laptop, and I notice that 100% volume in Ubuntu is significantly softer than 100% volume in Windows. | 06:52 |
| a1len | I mean, not patch. | 06:52 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | |sonic|: Did you read that somewhere? | 06:52 |
| Vantrax | then you can do it with apt-get install and remove but make sure you note what dependancies it installs, not the ones it needs | 06:52 |
| Kr0ntab | whats cool about that is uninstalling is simply removing the extra boot option... and removing the parent ubuntu folder from your ntfs file system. :-) | 06:52 |
| Vantrax | else you might remove too much | 06:52 |
| halberd2 | what you just mean manually | 06:52 |
| halberd2 | that's the worst way to do it | 06:52 |
| Vantrax | its the cleanest way | 06:53 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | |sonic|: I have installed and removed Ubuntu as an application before... it's very simple to get rid off if thats what your saying | 06:53 |
| |sonic| | Ascorbic_Acid , i read it now , tnx | 06:53 |
| rakesh_ | hello swati | 06:53 |
| Vantrax | you can just remove then use the auto commands to clean it up, but it wont be as clean as doing it manually | 06:53 |
| |sonic| | yeah that one i saw | 06:53 |
| halberd2 | why won't it be? | 06:53 |
| Raynes | I have ubuntu installed as an application, it's awesome. | 06:53 |
| rakesh_ | yeah .. | 06:53 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | As do I | 06:53 |
| rakesh_ | wubi ..is kool | 06:53 |
| Vantrax | auto tools are never as good as someone doing it manually that knows what to do | 06:54 |
| rakesh_ | but there are some performance issues with it | 06:54 |
| halberd2 | what would autoclean do wrong? | 06:54 |
| |sonic| | installing done , need to reboot and try 64bit Ubuntu | 06:54 |
| |sonic| | w00t | 06:54 |
| |sonic| | :) | 06:54 |
| |sonic| | c ya later | 06:54 |
| Kr0ntab | have fun | 06:54 |
| FloodBot3 | |sonic|: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:54 |
| Kr0ntab | ? | 06:54 |
| avgjoe | I recently installed ubuntu after purchasing a computer with vista installed. I upgraded the graphics card to an ATI Radeon 3650, but the drivers I installed are not compatible with linux. I googled 'ati linux drivers', and was sent to the ati website. I selected all the appropriate options (os, card, etc.) and downloaded the installer...but I don't know what to run it with. Can anybody help me? Googling (so far) hasn't shed any light, b | 06:54 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | |sonic|: it will have to install more, lol | 06:54 |
| Raynes | I can't even use my installation until I get a new modem -_- | 06:54 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | |sonic|: but have fun | 06:54 |
| Raynes | Lucky you. | 06:54 |
| |sonic| | thanks :) | 06:54 |
| |sonic| | c ya | 06:54 |
| Vantrax | avgjoe: your talking abotu the restricted package manager? | 06:55 |
| halberd2 | wait a minute autoclean doesn't actually uninstall anything | 06:55 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | rakesh_: What kinda performance issues are their with it? | 06:55 |
| Vantrax | autoclean can remove unused packages:P | 06:55 |
| avgjoe | I'm not sure, total noob | 06:55 |
| Kr0ntab | Vantrax: he may not know what that is | 06:55 |
| avgjoe | but when trying to run the driver installation, it requires I select a program to run it with, would that be it? | 06:56 |
| Vantrax | whats the file called? | 06:56 |
| halberd2 | according to man aptitude, autoclean merely cleans up the cache | 06:56 |
| bullgard4 | What is the 'kernel image'? | 06:56 |
| avgjoe | atri-driver-installer-8-10-x86_64.run | 06:56 |
| Kr0ntab | Vantrax: you may want to walk him through restricted driver install... via front end tool. | 06:56 |
| avgjoe | ati* | 06:57 |
| halberd2 | the thing is that I don't want to install more junk than I need | 06:57 |

| avgjoe | thank you | 06:57 |
| karab44_ | each time i turn on my computer is compiz.real generated a problem and its going to close | 06:58 |
| Kr0ntab | avgjoe: yeah... you probably dont even need to run anything. Ubuntu includes the option to run open source and proprietary drivers... your choice, but will work without having to download anything special... | 06:58 |
| rakesh_ | samething is happening with me .. | 06:58 |
| rakesh_ | I am using 8.10 beta | 06:59 |

| === rahal_ is now known as rahal | ||
| rakesh_ | compiz.real crashes every time | 06:59 |
| Vantrax | avgjoe: only run the fglrx (ATI) driver if it needs to do something the default wont | 06:59 |
| karab44_ | rakesh_: yes | 06:59 |
| feng14 | check the system logs | 06:59 |
| karab44_ | but indeed nothing happens | 06:59 |
| halberd2 | I have no manual page for X | 06:59 |

| halberd2 | how can I get the manual for X? | 07:00 |
| Ascorbic_Acid | Where do I go to delete stuff from my menus... LIke my applications menu and games and stuff? | 07:00 |
| karab44_ | where i find compiz.real or system log? | 07:00 |
| mwc | I updated to 8.10, everything went smoothly. On reboot, GDM is unable to start any gnome sessions (login stuff fades away, left with only orange background and pointer.) I can start a failsafe X term, but not a failsafe gnome | 07:01 |

| kai696 | Does anyone know DivX well? (Web player) | 07:04 |
| deftone | How do i get 32bit drivers installed on a 64bit version of ubuntu? | 07:08 |
| bullgard4 | kai696: DivX is a brand name of products created by DivX, Inc. Please specify your product. | 07:08 |
| kai696 | defttone, onl x64 will work on x64 systems, What specifically are you trying to install? | 07:08 |
| dmg2008 | Hey everyone: does anyone know if using a windows formatted ipod 80Gb can be stuffed up if it plugged into a linux machine and accessed through amarok... my friend who put all hismusic on his ipod using vista attached his ipod to my machine so we could listen to some music from it and afterwards the ipod acts asthough there is no music there when he uses it and when he connects it to his vista machine...? | 07:09 |
| deftone | i'm using ndiswrapper to install my wireless drivers | 07:09 |
| kai696 | bullgard4: I am not sure, DivX Web Player is what the Bundle came with and that seems to be hosting the issues. It's giving me an error saying to check my connection, however my connection is fine | 07:09 |
| deftone | i have a marvell topdog wireless card | 07:09 |
| === Kwitschibo_ is now known as Kwitschibo | ||
| kai696 | dmg2008, you are referring to set to discmode? | 07:10 |
| kai696 | deftone: Unfortionatelly I am not familiar with ndiswrapper. I apologise | 07:10 |
| frame06 | #bandung | 07:11 |
| dmg2008 | kai696: Not exactly. It may have been set to discmode prior by him... he's a bit clueless. When i tried to use the ipod with vista it made out as though the DB was unreadable. | 07:11 |
| deftone | i thought there was a package that enabled you to install 32bit apps in 64bit os? | 07:12 |
| |sonic| | ok i have installed 64bit Ubuntu as application into windows , i have core 2 duo CPU ....... After the installation finished i got message to eject the CD and to reboot , then i got the option on startup to choose OS , choosed Ubuntu and got command prompt , GRUB /> | 07:12 |
| |sonic| | what should i do ? | 07:12 |
| Flannel | !chroot | deftone | 07:12 |
| ubottu | deftone: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box | 07:12 |
| dmg2008 | kai696 so I wonder if amarok wrote to it for some reason even though there was no music transferred to it | 07:12 |

| dmg2008 | kai696 i don't think we did... because the music was no longer accessible from his machine I used my machine to transfer all the music to an external hard drive (which requires 2 usb ports) then plugged it into his laptop on the side with 2 ports and the ipod to the other side (where there is only 1 port) in the attempt to put the music back on the newly formatted ipod... unfortunately vista claimed to have installed the driver for the ext hd but would not s | 07:19 |

| kai696 | dmg2008: does it detect any music in Itunes? If not, Can you verify that the songs are on the Ipod? | 07:20 |
| karab44 | erpo: why advanced tools like pulseaudio are installed by default? Does ubuntu using them? | 07:20 |

| genius_ | The only difference from selection that i can make in setup (Use whole disk and use encrypted LVM) that i had to glue two physical volumes with LVM, created volume group and encrypted volume, then on top of it- LVM with my new volumes. | 07:21 |
| genius_ | In my case LVM envolved before and after authentication process, so ubuntu installer forgot to add PAM like it did before. How to fix? | 07:21 |
| xjkx | I have an extended partition with 2 logicals inside it. I am trying to resize partition sda5 to install Ubuntu. But gparted says a crazy message like this: "the filesystem is already x bytes long. Nothing to do !" instead of x, it says a big number i won't tell here. what the hell is that ? I run control+r and its still not resized. | 07:22 |
| Kartagis | Package webmin has no installation candidate <--- i get this but webmin exists and all my repos are enables | 07:22 |
| Kartagis | enabled | 07:23 |
| kai696 | xjkx, check filetype of logical partition. Unmount before resize and format the new partition | 07:23 |
| dmg2008 | kai696 no itunes thinks the ipod is empty of songs but does register that it was at 40% capacity. Amarok confirms the music is there. I assume this means the DB is forked but amarok can still read it... That's why I was able to get the music off it. So yes the music was still there but itunes and the ipod didn't register it. | 07:23 |
| Flannel | !webmin | Kartagis | 07:23 |
| ubottu | Kartagis: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 07:23 |
| kai696 | Run a diagonistics mode on your Ipod, Hopefully this can fix it, if not, the ipod might have to be forced out of any updates and reinstalled. | 07:23 |
| xjkx | kai696: its not mounted. its ext3. i tried formating the new one and not formating and had the same result | 07:23 |
| kai696 | xjkx, Size of partition and size after split? | 07:24 |
| dmg2008 | kai696 I tried using amarok to repopulate the freshly formatted and updated ipod... this went well until we disconnected the ipod and found that it didn't think there was any music on there | 07:24 |
| kai696 | dmg2008: For Diagnostics mode, if it's a fifth gen, just do a hard reset and hold the left button and the center button at the same time | 07:24 |
| Kartagis | !ebox | 07:24 |
| ubottu | ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox | 07:24 |

| halberd | so I got enlightenment running on my macbook! but I have a few questions, first off is it possible to run a window manager and ALSO switch between TTYs? | 07:31 |
| Flannel | halberd: ctrl-alt-f1 through ctrl-alt-f6 are TTYs, ctrl-alt-f7 is X again | 07:31 |
| Overand | Flannel: that may behave differently on a mac | 07:32 |
| Flannel | indeed it may. | 07:32 |
| Overand | I believe they lack a standard console, but I *think* that would work | 07:32 |

| jedimind | i have dual monitors ... how do i get an app from one monitor to the next one? | 07:39 |
| jedimind | clicking and dragging only rotates the view port on the current display | 07:39 |
| kai696 | jedimind, what graphics card? | 07:39 |
| Lokian | has anyone seen that Mac app that lets you type words and it creates a large text bubble displayed on your screen? and do they have a ubuntu counter part? | 07:39 |
| StevenX | Is there a command or something that I can run to make sure that all windows move to desktop 1? I want this because sometimes I have windows on all different desktops and I can tell what I have open. | 07:39 |
| kai696 | I am dual-screening right now actually, Video on one side and this on the other :) | 07:39 |
| jedimind | kai696: nvidia chipset | 07:39 |
| halberd | a large text bubble? | 07:39 |
| halberd | do you mean stickies? | 07:40 |
| kai696 | Do you have the control panel installed, Jedimind? and How are you using to connect? HDMI? | 07:40 |
| Lokian | it's sort of like how amarok displays the song title | 07:40 |
| === jason_ is now known as hex0 | ||
| jedimind | kai696: not sure how those questions are relevant.. i just want to drag one window from one monitor to the other | 07:40 |
| jedimind | what control panel are you talking about ? | 07:40 |
| dmg2008 | kai696: I was trying to go through the diagnostics and got stuck .... I did a search for the step I' | 07:40 |
| kai696 | Jedimind, Once the Nvidia control panel is setup, It runs you through a setup of dual-screens | 07:40 |
| Lokian | it's sort of like a giant notify in the middle of your string but you can type words to be that notify on the spot | 07:40 |

| dmsuperman | Anybody have a clue if there is a fix for this yet: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420207 | 07:41 |
| dmsuperman | It's almost a year and a half old :( | 07:41 |
| kai696 | Then it was just as easy as connecting, choosing whether or not I wanted to duplicate my screen or extend to a second desktop | 07:41 |
| jedimind | kai696: my monitors are setup and working just fine | 07:42 |
| dmg2008 | kai696 ...I'm at and found a page where someone has the same problem. The answer is that sometimes files become corrupted (I guess the DB) and the only solution is to format it and resync. I can only assume that amarok is corrupting the DB somehow. | 07:42 |

| ubuntu_todd | Flannel: In my system monitor there shows CPU1 and CPU2 in my CPU history. So that means there are two CPUs, but my friend says "you just have one Cpu with two cores." | 07:47 |

| Flannel | mib_eyb1dm: you can't resize partitions that are mounted, so you'll need to use some sort of live system. But yeah, you should be able to shrink your current partition and then install to another one. | 08:24 |
| mib_eyb1dm | Flannel: is shrinking fault free for ext3? | 08:24 |
| mib_eyb1dm | Flannel: also i didnt get it working from the direct method in the live cd.. so would like to try it on the debian itself.. | 08:25 |
| mib_eyb1dm | oh ok its not possible:) | 08:25 |
| Flannel | mib_eyb1dm: You won't be able to shrink the partition while its mounted, but shrinking isn't a high risk move, no. | 08:25 |
| Kr0ntab | cTn: mplayer and I believe VLC | 08:26 |
| mib_eyb1dm | Flannel: shrinking releases free space right? ok checking.. | 08:26 |
| cTn | Kr0ntab: thank u verry much, i didnt had much luck wth vlc in windows lets hope it could be better in linux ( i had problems when i was resizing 1080p, because i have only 1680x1050 monitor | 08:27 |

| ubottu | cajun2k66: 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. :-) | 08:31 |
| Kr0ntab | Hi cajun2k66, by te way. | 08:31 |
| Kr0ntab | :-) | 08:31 |
| Sylent | I'm restoring an Everex VA1500V to it's original gOS using gBook_recovery.iso from their site. However, the file is 765MB whereas a CD is 700MB. I currently have Ubuntu installed on the laptop. Anyone know what I can do here? O_O | 08:33 |
| cajun2k66 | lol k | 08:33 |
| Kr0ntab | Sylent: you can write it to a DVD? | 08:33 |
| Kr0ntab | hehe no sweat cajun2k66 :-) | 08:34 |
| Sylent | Kr0ntab: It does not let me | 08:34 |
| Kr0ntab | Sylent: what doesnt let you? | 08:34 |
| cajun2k66 | it took me a while to install ubuntu because of tha default depth , but now i've got my s3virge workin , only i can't play video's , very sloppy playback... | 08:34 |
| Sylent | Kr0ntab: Nero burning rom | 08:34 |
| African | :) Greetings | 08:35 |
| Danskmand | Did you see my question ? | 08:35 |
| user__ | when i do sudo fdisk -l i get this /dev/sda2 1276 9728 67898691 17 Hidden HPFS/NTFS | 08:36 |
| user__ | how do i make it unhidden ? | 08:36 |
| Kr0ntab | cajun2k66: I'm not familiar with the card or it's supported features... what resolution are you capable of running for for the desktop... and what depth? | 08:37 |
| jokeusa | If i add a specific forwarding rule with IPTables, where/how can i later see that rule? i | 08:38 |
| r2s1 | does the wireless mouse of A4TECH G6-20D working on ubuntu or any linux distro? | 08:38 |
| Kr0ntab | Sylent: an ISO should be able to burn to a DVD without any issue... you may want to try reinstalling Nero or use another burning app... | 08:38 |
| cajun2k66 | umm its a fairly old card , i'm running 1024x768 , 24 depth | 08:39 |
| Sylent | Kr0ntab: here is what i found when googling http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=194750 | 08:39 |
| Kr0ntab | cajun2k66: ok... nothing crazy... how is the performance of desktop functions... e.g. moving windows around... bowsing the web... | 08:40 |
| Kr0ntab | browsing even. :-) | 08:40 |
| uca | whats the problem | 08:41 |
| Kr0ntab | Sylent: did you download an ISO or a zip file that has just contents in it? | 08:41 |
| Sylent | the ISO | 08:41 |
| cajun2k66 | its aight , tha machine isn't that great either .... although i can run xp and watch video's .. | 08:41 |
| Kr0ntab | Sylent: are you familiar with burning ISO's? because there should be no difference with this one.... | 08:41 |
| F-3000 | Slart: you there? | 08:42 |
| r2s1 | does any wireless mouse works with ubuntu or linux ? | 08:42 |
| r2s1 | is there a listing for compatiblity? | 08:42 |
| Kr0ntab | cajun2k66: I'm just asking about basic desktoip functions... because those should at least be functioning somewhat decent... | 08:42 |
| Sylent | Kr0ntab: i've done many iso in the past, it simply rejects my DVD as a viable target for the CD iso burning | 08:42 |
| Kr0ntab | oh oh... then perhaps the media is bunk? do you have other clean blank DVD's? | 08:42 |
| cajun2k66 | well ya sorry ... everything else is fine .. moving windows around etc .. | 08:43 |
| Kr0ntab | sorry if I'm asking basic questions... just need to ask... | 08:43 |
| Kr0ntab | cajun2k66: cool... what video are you playing? DVD? MPG? | 08:43 |
| Sylent | Kr0ntab: no worries, i totally understand that. I'll try another blank DVD from the case | 08:43 |
| Kr0ntab | Sylent: cool.. yeah give that a shot... | 08:43 |
| F-3000 | Sylent, there's situations when RWs are well worth their value. :) | 08:44 |
| cajun2k66 | umm well actually i've noticed that mpgs run smoother than any other format ... but when i stream a video online it plays like 1frame/sec | 08:44 |
| Kr0ntab | cajun2k66: see it depends on the media player and potentially the format. for instalce... if you are using mplayer or xine.. they each can use different video output libraries... like xv, x11, or something else.. | 08:45 |
| Kr0ntab | if the libarry isnt optimal for the card.. then you get crap performance... | 08:45 |
| Kr0ntab | so what videos are bad? | 08:46 |
| Kr0ntab | in flash? | 08:46 |
| Kr0ntab | or something else? | 08:46 |
| cajun2k66 | well the thing is , only mpg are decent enuff to attempt to watch , but its still slow playback ... but how come when i watch a youtube video or anything else its soo slow ? | 08:46 |
| Sylent | Kr0ntab: AHA, turns out i just overlooked something. It automatically detected the iso was a CD so picked CD burning as an option. It was just a pull down menu and I picked DVD this time LOL | 08:47 |
| Kr0ntab | Sylent: coool! thats good mate. | 08:47 |
| Sylent | Kr0ntab: one of the reasons I always comply with even the basic questions. You never know what you missed. | 08:47 |
| Sylent | ^_^ | 08:48 |
| metaperl | how would I check to see if a new kernel has been installed | 08:48 |
| jokeusa | Anyone here that knows iptables pretty well? | 08:49 |
| Kr0ntab | Sylent: excellent outlook. :-) | 08:49 |
| Kr0ntab | metaperl: to view current kernel version... | 08:49 |
| Kr0ntab | metaperl: run the following command... uname -r | 08:49 |
| metaperl | oh ok | 08:50 |
| Sylent | thanks again, see you around | 08:50 |
| * Sylent gives Kr0ntab a metal | 08:50 | |
| Kr0ntab | Sylent: u 2. hehe | 08:50 |
| cajun2k66 | can i change depth without editing xorg? | 08:50 |
| metaperl | yes, but cant I go to some directory and do an ls and see the various kernels | 08:50 |
| Kr0ntab | cajun2k66: yes... System... Preferences... screen resolution... | 08:51 |
| Kr0ntab | editing your xorg manually should always be a last resort... | 08:51 |
| cajun2k66 | well i have ubuntu lite ... | 08:52 |
| cajun2k66 | i dont know where anything is in this one | 08:52 |
| Kr0ntab | metaperl: you can have multiple kernels installed... but you only run one at a time... | 08:52 |
| metaperl | yes, but I once tripped up on a directory and saw two kernel directories there | 08:53 |
| Kr0ntab | cajun2k66: ubuntu lite? can you expand on that? you mean xubuntu? | 08:53 |
| metaperl | I think maybe I was in /etc | 08:53 |
| cajun2k66 | yeah thats it , sorry me = noob to this stuff | 08:54 |
| Kr0ntab | cajun2k66: no sweat... I'm not real familiar with the x controls built into xfce... the default window manager installed in xubuntu... | 08:55 |
| FD_F | hello i have law monitor refresh rate (51Hz ) and i cant use more in system -> screen resolution- how can i fix it ? thanks | 08:55 |
| Kr0ntab | perhaps the folks in #xubuntu can help? | 08:55 |
| Kr0ntab | metaperl: you have your kernel images in /boot | 08:56 |
| cajun2k66 | well i wanna install reg ubuntu but when i try it has tha "default depth" problem so it doesn't start xserver or x or watver , so installation is impossible ?!? | 08:56 |
| Kr0ntab | thats where the actual static images are... | 08:56 |
| metaperl | ok thanks | 08:56 |
| Kr0ntab | you also have kernel modules... which are in /lib/modules | 08:56 |
| jeeves_Moss | does anyone know what "[2008/10/22 00:40:12, 2] smbd/service.c:make_connection(1137) [homes] share not available for this user because it was not found or created at session setup time" would cause? | 08:56 |
| Kr0ntab | cajun2k66: try alternate install disc | 08:57 |
| Kr0ntab | !alternate | cajun2k66 | 08:57 |
| ubottu | cajun2k66: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the alternate checkbox on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal - Torrent at http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04.1/ubuntu-8.04.1-alternate-i386.iso.torrent | 08:57 |
| cajun2k66 | i've got about 4 diff copies , i'll give it a try ... | 08:58 |

| mib_627oez | Flannel: am the guy who asked you about shrinking ext3..:) i had to be extra cautious! it initially went to install on the whole hdd.. i just made it sure by going backward and checking the partition and there i went for manual and assigned the free space with / | 09:36 |
| e-frame | cajun2k66: even on live cd i can see windows network | 09:36 |
| Vesperon | gia se olous | 09:36 |

| cajun2k66 | well your lucky ... | 09:37 |
| jim_p | AdvoWork: sorry i was on the phone. i think fstab can handle the ip | 09:37 |

| AdvoWork | ahh ok, jim, it works on 192... but not the name, dns messing up? | 09:39 |

| bullgard4 | ... main restricted universe multiverse'. Why does the 2nd computer not offer automatically the kernel 2.6.24-21-generic for downlad? | 09:40 |
| Raylz | jim_p: hm tut looks like i can do it in my gentoo, thx for the tipp | 09:41 |
| nachi_ | hey. i got a offline website project and i want over the network to work with my workers, so once they made a change it will be applied but i will able to return to pervious versions etc... i know there is Subversion server i can install on my ubuntu but i understood that i need everytime to push the project into my hd and work it locally then apply it and then copy it manually into /var/www server... is there a method to do it without | 09:42 |
| jim_p | Raylz: you are welcome | 09:42 |
| e-frame | bullgard4: where is thekernel 2.6.24-21-generic ? is it on universe / multiverse ? u don't have em on 2nd computer's sources.list | 09:42 |
| === marko_ is now known as marko-_- | ||
| jim_p | nachi_: correct me if i am wrong, but subversion is one-way-view and manipulation of the files. eg you check the svn, download the files locally and do your job like compile etc. the finished job cant go back to the server | 09:43 |
| e-frame | bullgard4: try to copy the sources.list of 1st comp to the 2nd one. update and try again to install the package. ( make backup first of current sources.list) | 09:44 |
| nachi_ | yeah | 09:44 |
| nachi_ | im looking for working on web project | 09:44 |
| nachi_ | in this way | 09:44 |

| gluonman | For whatever reason, my external hard drive no longer mounts at the same point it used to. How can I make it automatically mount at /media/disk as it always did instead of /media/disk-1 as it does now? | 09:45 |
| ikonia | gluonman what is the label of the volume | 09:45 |
| gluonman | ikonia, it is 500.1 GB Media | 09:45 |
| bullgard4 | e-frame: I do not understand why you want to associate a kernel to universe / multiverse. I think that a kernel shluld be independent of unvierse or multiverse. | 09:45 |
| extor | All my apps that were on the bottom panel vanished and now the panel is empty even though I have xchat and firefox open. Is there any way to bring back the apps without restarting X? | 09:45 |
| ikonia | gluonman thats teh disk label | 09:45 |
| ikonia | bullgard4 kernel is not in multiverse or universe but the core repos | 09:46 |
| jim_p | extor: killall gnome-panel | 09:46 |
| gluonman | ikonia, then FreeAgentPro | 09:46 |
| ikonia | gluonman sorry, that was a question, "thats the volume label ?" | 09:46 |
| ikonia | gluonman: I'm asking because the mount point of hot plug disks is normally determained by the disks "name" | 09:46 |
| gluonman | ikonia, Oh. Sorry. I guess. | 09:46 |
| extor | jim_p, it is still blank | 09:46 |
| berry__ | hi. It seems my VMWare install doesn't work anymore under Ubuntu, my collegue seems to have the same issue. Any thoughts? | 09:46 |
| ikonia | the only reason a disk would be re-named to disk-1 is if "disk" was already in use | 09:46 |
| ikonia | (assuming both where labled disk" | 09:47 |
| ikonia | ) | 09:47 |
| gluonman | ikonia, it is not in use. | 09:47 |
| jim_p | extor: the panel is there but it does not have open windows listed? | 09:47 |
| Raylz | btw, does the beta iso, you can download from ubuntu.com still contain the broken e1000 driver? | 09:47 |
| ikonia | gluonman the system may thaink it's still in use depending on how it was unplugged (of course if you've rebooted this should be void) | 09:47 |
| ActionParsnip | yo yo yo | 09:47 |
| jim_p | berry__: remake the modules? | 09:47 |
| extor | jim_p, correct | 09:47 |
| gluonman | ikonia, the only thing I can think of is that I used my laptop to create to fix a friend's external because she disconnected it unsafely. I created a mount point for it, and when I opened my own on that laptop, it mounted to that point. Now it's mounting at disk-1 on this desktop instead of the former disk. | 09:48 |
| extor | and neithere does it have that thing at the bottom left, the all-windows minimizer | 09:48 |
| berry__ | jim_p: I could. Just wondering if anyone had seen this issue yet. | 09:48 |
| berry__ | jim_p: I'll do that. Thanks. | 09:48 |
| bullgard4 | ikonia: /etc/apt/sources.list does not include a 'core' string. Where can I find "core repos"? | 09:48 |
| gluonman | ikonia, but I can't think of anything I did on this desktop that would cause this behaviour. | 09:49 |
| gluonman | ikonia, I just want to find out how to get it to mount at the original point it was mounting at. | 09:49 |
| jim_p | extor: right click on an empty panel area and "add to panel" > "window selection" maybe (i am in greek and i dont know if its correct translation) | 09:49 |
| ActionParsnip | bullgard4: my sources.list doesnt contain the string "core" or any case combination | 09:49 |
| ubuntu_todd | When I use firefox to play music, there is no sound in vlc or mplayer or other audio player. | 09:49 |
| ubuntu_todd | And firefox even makes the system do not work. | 09:50 |
| ActionParsnip | !sound | ubuntu_todd | 09:50 |
| ubottu | ubuntu_todd: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 09:50 |
| MltShift | HELP I ARE SOMEPEOPLER HAS | 09:50 |
| extor | jim_p, I have a window selectOR not selection...I tried it but it just added an x-chat icon to the bottom panel which is otherwise blank | 09:50 |
| ActionParsnip | !caps | MltShift | 09:51 |
| ubottu | MltShift: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 09:51 |
| jim_p | extor: let me make a new panel to find what it is | 09:51 |
| ubuntu_todd | ActionParsnip: I choose that choice. | 09:51 |
| _2 | i have an sshd that i can't seem to start. it answers /etc/init.d/sshd start as [ok] but checking for the pid it's not running, anyone have dias ? | 09:51 |
| jim_p | extor: window list ?? | 09:51 |
| donkeyboy | is there a place where I can find out what software packages (and their versions) ship with each version of ubuntu? | 09:51 |
| ActionParsnip | _2: ps -ef | grep -i ssh | 09:52 |
| bullgard4 | ActionParsnip: This is what I said too. But ikonia seemed to imply that it should. | 09:52 |
| _2 | ActionParsnip as i said it's not running. | 09:52 |
| ActionParsnip | bullgard4: my system is working 100% | 09:52 |
| extor | jim_p, that did it. They look a bit odd but yeah they are back | 09:52 |
| jim_p | extor: right click > add to panel > window list ?? | 09:52 |
| jim_p | :) | 09:52 |
| ActionParsnip | _2: try ssh <username>@localhost | 09:52 |
| gluonman | ikonia, still there? | 09:52 |
| bullgard4 | ActionParsnip: My 1st computer does too, but the 2nd doesn't. | 09:52 |
| _2 | ActionParsnip it's not running. | 09:52 |
| extor | jim_p, yeah that worked | 09:52 |
| jim_p | well done extor | 09:53 |
| ActionParsnip | _2: then purge uninstall it then reinstall | 09:53 |
| Raylz | for a ssd i dont create a swap right? | 09:53 |
| ActionParsnip | bullgard4: are the sources.list files identical? | 09:53 |
| _2 | so anyone have a clue how i can get sshd to start ? | 09:53 |
| jim_p | Raylz: swap existance and size depends on the jobs you do on the pc | 09:53 |
| ActionParsnip | _2: are you allowing traffic to the ssh port in your firewall (if you have it configured) | 09:53 |
| bullgard4 | ActionParsnip: As I said above, the are not. | 09:53 |
| Raylz | jim_p: its an acer aspire one 110L originally with linpus linux | 09:54 |
| e-frame | bullgard4: try to copy the sources.list of 1st comp to the 2nd one. update and try again to install the package. ( make backup first of current sources.list perhaps you want to revert back) | 09:54 |
| Raylz | jim_p: 8gb ssd and 512 mb ram | 09:54 |
| _2 | ActionParsnip and that will affect whether or not it starts, how just exactly ? | 09:54 |
| ActionParsnip | bullgard4: then copy the working one to the system that is having issues, back up the bad sources.list then instate the new one | 09:54 |
| Raylz | jim_p: im going to format with ext2 and no swap | 09:54 |
| ActionParsnip | _2: it'll reinstall the binarys | 09:54 |
| jim_p | Raylz: and you want to install ubuntu there? | 09:54 |
| jim_p | Raylz: ext3!!!! | 09:54 |
| ActionParsnip | _2: maybe you have a bad binary | 09:54 |
| _2 | ActionParsnip the firewall will ? j pfft | 09:55 |
| Raylz | jim_p: ext2 reduces i/o operations on the ssd | 09:55 |
| ActionParsnip | _2: you could apt-get clean to remove the old .debs so you download a fresh version from the server | 09:55 |
| * _2 rolls eyes | 09:55 | |
| jim_p | Raylz: i see | 09:55 |
| Raylz | jim_p: and swap is generally bad for ssd | 09:55 |
| cajun2k66 | so when i'm installing ubuntu i need to edit tha xorg.conf for depth , but can't write to it using "ubuntu@ubuntu$" how can i change to root so i can install ???? | 09:55 |
| jim_p | Raylz: really?! | 09:55 |
| e-frame | cajun2k66: use sudo | 09:55 |
| AdvoWork | jim_p no didnt place the relationship in etc hosts, shall i? | 09:56 |
| Raylz | jim_p: yes, cause ssds are limited to i/o ops and swap wrights a lot | 09:56 |
| cajun2k66 | and it will let me write to the xorg.conf | 09:56 |
| e-frame | !sudo > cajun2k66 | 09:56 |
| ubottu | cajun2k66, please see my private message | 09:56 |
| jim_p | AdvoWork: yes! no wonder it is still searching! | 09:56 |
| ActionParsnip | cajun2k66: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 09:56 |
| cajun2k66 | will that edit in root mode ? | 09:56 |
| ActionParsnip | cajun2k66: indeed | 09:56 |
| AdvoWork | jim_p but its worked fine for about 2 weeks like it was before? | 09:57 |
| Raylz | jim_p: i consider purging ubuntu-desktop and putting xubuntu-desktop on it afterwards | 09:57 |
| e-frame | cajun2k66: see the permission of Xorg.conf? | 09:57 |
| cajun2k66 | because i can't install unless i edit xorg cuz i need 16 depth | 09:57 |
| ActionParsnip | cajun2k66: gksudo for gui apps (like gedit) sudo for command line apps (like, cp, rm, apt-get) | 09:57 |
| e-frame | !gksudo > cajun2k66 | 09:57 |
| ubottu | cajun2k66, please see my private message | 09:57 |
| ActionParsnip | cajun2k66: under kde, kdesudo == gksudo | 09:58 |
| jim_p | AdvoWork: you dont lose something to do like i said. and it will work forever because this is the "formal" way of doing it | 09:58 |
| bullgard4 | e-frame, ActionParsnip Thank you for your advice. | 09:58 |
| Raylz | jim_p: do you own a nettop? | 09:58 |
| ActionParsnip | bullgard4: np bro, backup the bad one first just in case | 09:58 |
| jim_p | Raylz: do you have enough gentoo experience? | 09:58 |
| bullgard4 | yes I will. | 09:58 |
| e-frame | bullgard4 :) | 09:58 |
| jim_p | Raylz: no i only have a desktop | 09:58 |
| ActionParsnip | bullgard4: good lad | 09:58 |
| Raylz | jim_p: yes, but im putting ubuntu onto it | 09:58 |
| cajun2k66 | so if i type gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and save it will write ? | 09:59 |
| ActionParsnip | cajun2k66: affirmative | 09:59 |
| e-frame | cajun2k66: yup | 09:59 |
| Raylz | jim_p: gentoo live cd comes with kernel 24 and the eth driver is in 27 kernel | 09:59 |
| jim_p | Raylz: then install ubuntu server edition and isntall xfce on top of it plus any packages you need | 09:59 |
| cajun2k66 | does the cd copy files to tha harddrive before it installs ? | 09:59 |
| gluonman | Can anyone help me reassign my external HDD to a mount point? | 09:59 |
| ActionParsnip | cajun2k66: gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf runs the app as you. You only have read access, you need root to edit | 09:59 |
| gluonman | I was being helped, but suddenly got ignored. | 09:59 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: is it in /etc/fstab? | 09:59 |
| Raylz | jim_p: i take the normal live cd ;) already downloaded it (i have 46kbyte/s conn) | 10:00 |
| jim_p | cajun2k66: it copies some to ram, not on the drive, unless you have a little amount of ram | 10:00 |
| roselgan | i was wondering if i could get some help with phpmyadmin plz....i am new to linux and having problems | 10:00 |
| Raylz | roselgan: what problems you got | 10:00 |
| jim_p | Raylz: ok | 10:00 |
| cajun2k66 | so gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf wont work ? i will have to change to root ? | 10:00 |
| gluonman | ActionParsnip, it's not specifically listed in fstab, but it has always mounted at /media/disk. Now it's mounting at /media/disk-1 | 10:00 |
| Raylz | jim_p: plus i dont want to compile on an intel atom proc :D | 10:00 |
| ActionParsnip | cajun2k66: gksudo gives you the same access rights as root, just like sudo does | 10:00 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: how are you mounting it? | 10:01 |
| jim_p | Raylz: i didnt tell you to install gentoo there!!! | 10:01 |
| cajun2k66 | lol ok ... | 10:01 |
| gluonman | ActionParsnip, it mounts automatically. | 10:01 |
| cajun2k66 | thanks peace.. | 10:01 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: i think the automount thing reads the label of the drive | 10:01 |
| gluonman | ActionParsnip, how do I determine the label of the drive? | 10:01 |
| ActionParsnip | !label | 10:02 |
| ubottu | To rename the labels of your partitions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RenameUSBDrive. | 10:02 |
| gluonman | ActionParsnip, thank you. | 10:02 |
| roselgan | raylz i have pm'd you | 10:02 |
| ActionParsnip | np bro | 10:02 |
| * ActionParsnip hates automount | 10:02 | |
| AdvoWork | jim_p so what kind of entry do i need in hostss? | 10:02 |
| AdvoWork | -s | 10:03 |
| jim_p | AdvoWork: one like this 192.168.1. | 10:03 |
| jim_p | damn | 10:03 |
| jim_p | AdvoWork: one like this 192.168.1.1 jim | 10:03 |
| jim_p | AdvoWork: on a blank line | 10:03 |
| jim_p | get me? | 10:04 |
| donkeyboy | http://packages.ubuntu.com/ | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | well that was fruitless | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | hahaha | 10:05 |
| ikonia | gluonman: apologies I wason the phone | 10:07 |
| gluonman | ikonia, no problem, man. :) | 10:07 |
| ikonia | gluonman how you getting along | 10:07 |
| gluonman | ikonia, I'm using ntfslabel to restore the label of my device to what it was before. Somehow it got changed. | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: all green now? | 10:09 |
| jokeusa | Anyone familiar with IPTables and wouldnt mind helping me with redirecting traffic? | 10:09 |
| ikonia | gluonman ahh it's an ntfs drive too, how annoying | 10:10 |
| ActionParsnip | jokeusa: id use firestarter, its easier | 10:10 |
| ikonia | jokeusa: #netfilter and #iptables have specialist guys | 10:10 |
| gluonman | ActionParsnip, ikonia, I did figure out the re-labeling process. The actual reason it mattered to me is because my external is my movie collection, and I had all of the folder images set to the movie covers and filmmakers. When I mounted it and it mounted to disk-1 they were all just regular folders. I didn't want to have to go through the whole process of changing the pictures, but now that I've renamed it disk, the pictures are still n | 10:12 |
| gluonman | ot there. | 10:12 |
| Wavesonics | hi all | 10:12 |
| Wavesonics | does anyone know if Ubuntu 8.10 will have ext4 enabled? | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: unmount it and mount it manually, you'll probably have more joy | 10:13 |
| ikonia | gluonman I'm not sure how the mount point related to the pictures, could you expand on that | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | !intrepid | Wavesonics | 10:13 |
| ubottu | Wavesonics: Intrepid Ibex is the code name for Ubuntu 8.10, due October 30th, 2008 - Warning lots of broken software between now and October 30th! - Use #ubuntu+1 for support, *NOT* #ubuntu | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: you could add a line for it in /etc/fstab so its mounted at boot | 10:14 |
| gluonman | ikonia, I'm not too sure. All I know is that I have a folder with all of the images located on it saved on the external. Whenever I mounted the external before (and it has been almost a year) it always showed the folders in my movie collection with the pictures of the movie covers, etc. Suddenly, it mounts disk-1 and the pictures are not showing on the folders anymore. | 10:14 |
| gluonman | ikonia, that's why I connected the two. | 10:14 |
| ikonia | gluonman ok, now I understand | 10:15 |
| Serafeim | Hallo i want to mount a usb flash driver | 10:15 |
| ikonia | gluonman where is the disk currently mounted ? | 10:15 |
| gluonman | ActionParsnip, I'm not sure what mounting it manually has to do with it. Can you explain more? | 10:15 |
| Serafeim | it's not plug n play | 10:15 |
| gluonman | ikonia, it is now mounted at /media/disk since I used sudo ntfslabel /dev/sdb1 disk | 10:15 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: do any files show? What is shown rather than the images? | 10:15 |
| ikonia | gluonman are you %100 certain it's mounted on /media/disk ? | 10:16 |
| ActionParsnip | !mount | Serafeim | 10:16 |
| ubottu | Serafeim: For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/switching/installing-partitioning.html - For partitioning programs see !GParted or !QTParted - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap | 10:16 |
| gluonman | ActionParsnip, all the files are still there. My movies are fine (otherwise I'd be crying). But the folders are just the normal theme folders. | 10:16 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: can you expand on "normal theme folders" | 10:16 |
| gluonman | ikonia, you know what? I just checked the /media/ folder and found that it's mounted at /media/disk_ | 10:17 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: if you rn mount on its own it will show you where everything is mouonted | 10:17 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: thats why i hate automount | 10:17 |
| ikonia | gluonman: ok so lets manually mount it on /media/disk to see if that solves the prolem first | 10:17 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: if i mount it, I know for a fact where it is | 10:17 |
| gluonman | ActionParsnip, you know how you can have different themes like human or flux, etc? They have folder images. You can manually change a folder's image to whatever picture you want if you go to its properties. All the work I did manually changing the folders of movies to the DVD covers is no longer present. They are just the normal theme folders images. | 10:17 |
| gluonman | ikonia, alright. I'm assuming I umount it and then type something like mount /media/disk right? | 10:18 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: no idea dude, i use cli for file management, gui is too slow | 10:18 |
| gluonman | ActionParsnip, I don't think you're getting what I meant. | 10:18 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: i dont use file managers so no I wont | 10:19 |
| Serafeim | i don't have any partitions. I have only one. My problem is that when I plug-in a usb, it can be recognised | 10:19 |
| gluonman | ActionParsnip, Alright. I don't think it really matters. | 10:19 |
| ikonia | gluonman unmount it, great, then you need "sudo mount /dev/$disk_address /media/disk" | 10:19 |
| ikonia | gluonman: replace $disk_adress with your device file for that disk | 10:19 |
| erki | Serafeim: Would it be correct to assume that you mean it *can't* be recognized? | 10:19 |
| gluonman | ikonia, alright. | 10:20 |
| Serafeim | erki: can't, sorry!! | 10:20 |
| erki | Serafeim: Any error messages? | 10:20 |
| Serafeim | erki: nothing | 10:20 |
| gluonman | ikonia, :-* that fixed it. | 10:20 |
| erki | Serafeim: Hmm, I'm only useful when there are clear and informative error messages :) | 10:21 |
| gluonman | ikonia, thank you very much. | 10:21 |
| gluonman | ActionParsnip, and thank you for your insights as well. | 10:22 |
| ikonia | gluonman: ok, so thats interesting, the mount point is right, | 10:22 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: if you add a line to your fstab it will always mount there | 10:22 |
| Flynsarmy | I have a cbp file. when i double click on it a dialogue pops up asking if i want to run in terminal, display, cancel or run. if i select open with - codeblocks, the next time i run it it still shows the dialogue. if i right click - properties it already has codeblocks selected in 'open with'. ideas? | 10:22 |
| gluonman | ActionParsnip, alright. | 10:22 |
| Serafeim | erki: i have just installed gparted and recognize the usd (dev/sdb1) but with unknown filesystem | 10:22 |
| gluonman | ikonia, I had a hunch the picture thing was related to the mount point. Because both those things changed at the same time. | 10:22 |
| Serafeim | erki: maby I have to format the usd, right?? | 10:23 |
| Serafeim | erki: *maybe | 10:23 |
| erki | Flynsarmy: I'm guessing you copied that file from a FAT (or similar) file system, and it is set to be executable (which it probably shouldn't be), try removing the executable flag via chmom. | 10:23 |
| ikonia | gluonman be itnerested in where the disk auto mounts on a reboot | 10:23 |
| erki | *chmod*, I was channeling Freud again... | 10:23 |
| === Ohmu is now known as Ohmu_away | ||
| gluonman | ikonia, yes. I'll find that out later. | 10:24 |
| ActionParsnip | ikonia: i bet automount borks it | 10:24 |
| erki | Serafeim: That seems a bit strong... Unless you are sure that you have nothing important on the USB, in which case it can't hurt to try :) | 10:24 |
| ikonia | ActionParsnip possibly | 10:24 |
| gluonman | ActionParsnip, autmount has never done this before. | 10:24 |
| Serafeim | erki: The usb is new! Which filesystem i have to try in order to be compatible with windows and unix-os?? | 10:25 |
| ActionParsnip | gluonman: maybe its learned from the mounting you just did | 10:25 |
| Flynsarmy | erki, that got it, thanks | 10:25 |
| hateball | Serafeim» FAT/FAT32 | 10:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Serafeim: sudo fdisk -l will show you | 10:26 |
| gluonman | ActionParsnip, yes. I think something changed when I fixed my friend's external after she unsafely removed it from her comuter | 10:26 |
| gluonman | computer* | 10:26 |
| erki | Serafeim: FAT/FAT32 if you want maximum compatibility. NTFS if you don't mind booting up windows to mount/unmount every once in a while ) | 10:27 |
| ActionParsnip | erki: fat32 can corrupt data if its not treated right. ntfs is more robust | 10:28 |
| Trashlord | and it also can't hold single files larger than 4GB | 10:28 |
| Serafeim | i can' format it to ntfs, only on fat/fat32 | 10:29 |

| guyzmo | there's a plugin where you can mirror screen, adapting the size of one to the other | 10:38 |

| guyzmo | you hit a key stroke, and drag and drop one screen to the other | 10:38 |

| guyzmo | snowj - and for that you need to configure outputs so you have two displays side by side | 10:39 |
| snowj | guyzmo: hmm, dont really understnd that part.>:( | 10:40 |

| WIGGMPk | ActionParsnip: but its not a program per say | 10:44 |
| ActionParsnip | WIGGMPk: you could manually run the script when you wake the system up. I am unsure of the mechanics of waking up but you'll need to throw it into that mix | 10:45 |

| darren__ | hi does any one know how i can boot into the new ubuntu or hardy i can not seem to see hardy in linux headers or image to i have to add a link or some thing thank you | 10:46 |
| WIGGMPk | ActionParsnip: i see.. the location /etc/pm/sleep.d/ im not very familiar with and not really comfortable with just calling it at login without knowing the dynamics behind it... I guess what im trying to say is, is that the best location to place the script? | 10:46 |
| ActionParsnip | darren__: have you compiled a new kernel and want it adding to your grub list? | 10:46 |
| ActionParsnip | WIGGMPk: id have a look at what that folder actually does and how it works and what the files inside it mean | 10:48 |
| unitedpotsmokers | hello guys, i want ask you, what is a different between playonlinux and wine application. can some one help me? | 10:48 |
| WIGGMPk | ActionParsnip: Ive checked out /etc/pm im gonna guess pm = power management? I notice a sleep.d, power.d, and config.d... does this make sense? | 10:48 |
| darren__ | ActionParsnip, ok im new to ubuntu ill try and explain i have to download drivers from aircrack to work for packet injection on my wifi i had hardy version 24-19 i think and i reinstalled my pc with ubuntu 8.10 now i would like to be able to boot into the older version as well, because the drivers were fine on that, does this make any sence | 10:49 |
| ActionParsnip | WIGGMPk: looks like you can just copy stuff to the folder | 10:49 |
| WIGGMPk | ActionParsnip: thanks for the insight.. appreciate you quick response, I got disconnected before. | 10:50 |
| ActionParsnip | WIGGMPk: ive never used sleep / hibernate as i deem it worthless to myself | 10:50 |
| WIGGMPk | ActionParsnip: eh, it has its faults but comes in handy when it works | 10:50 |
| ActionParsnip | WIGGMPk: id look at the files and folder in the sleep.d folder to see whats what | 10:51 |
| erki | unitedpotsmokers: "PlayOnLinux is an application to ease the installation of Windows games using Wine. It uses an online database of scripts to apply to different games that need special configurations" courtesy of Wikipedia | 10:51 |
| darren__ | ActionParsnip, so i would like to be able to have the both hardy and ubuntu 8.10 and pick one to boot into but the older version does not appear in synaptic any more to be able to install | 10:51 |
| WIGGMPk | ActionParsnip: there's nothing in any of them (config.d, sleep.d, power.d) | 10:51 |

| darren__ | ActionParsnip, true i just carnt remember what i did befor because i had 24-19 which updated to kernal 24-20 and i was still able to boot into the bothç | 11:02 |
| bullgard4 | ikonia: Why is it necessary to differentiate between hardy-updates and hardy proper in packages.ubuntu.com? | 11:02 |
| _2 | so i'm assuming a device is missing ? | 11:02 |
| ikonia | bullgard4 so there is a base hardy - and updates made to that base hardy I assume | 11:02 |
| ActionParsnip | darren__: yes as they are both hardy kernels | 11:02 |

| darren__ | ActionParsnip, ok last question sorry to be a pain do you think there is any way of adding the hardy repositrys to the new ubuntu synaptic to be able to download the older kernal as well | 11:03 |
| ActionParsnip | gnychis: maybe reinstall that kernel? | 11:03 |
| erUSUL | gnychis: reinstall linux-image-2.6.24-21-generic | 11:03 |

| sabwab | Ikonia, had a problem using some mpeg2 files in qdvdauthor | 11:06 |
| ubottu | Package latex does not exist in hardy | 11:06 |
| erki | jim_p: I would probably describe it as an environment. It has binary stuff, lots of scripts and I seem to remember that it differs from TeX language-wise. | 11:06 |
| sabwab | so probably there are other packages that are not so critic about files | 11:07 |
| magnetron | ActionParsnip→ you install the tetex distribution of LaTeX, see the page ubottu linked to | 11:07 |
| jim_p | thanks erki | 11:07 |
| sabwab | but qdvdauthor has the most interesting options yet | 11:07 |
| _2 | ActionParsnip ah bingo. it's the old "/dev/null is a file" bug rearing it's ugly head again.. thanks. | 11:07 |
| ActionParsnip | magnetron: its for jim_p not me | 11:07 |

| jim_p | 56!!!! | 11:09 |
| magnetron | jim_p→ TeX Live seems to be better | 11:09 |
| erki | jim_p: Hmm, I'm not sure texlive includes an editor. But you can definately compile latex using texlive. | 11:09 |
| === qfrzopwj is now known as etag | ||
| erki | jim_p: Personally I use Eclipse + TeXlipse for LaTeX editing, but I think some might find that to be excessive :P | 11:10 |

| jim_p | cads: is that partition in ext3 filesystem? | 11:34 |
| cads | correct | 11:34 |
| jim_p | cads: i suppose you can install it there then if you tell the installer not to format it. keep a backup just in case though | 11:35 |

| _luser | ikonia - are the {k,x,}ubuntu releases all the same kernel? | 11:43 |
| ikonia | _luser I believe so | 11:43 |
| ActionParsnip | omg, next ubuntu is Jaunty Jackalope | 11:43 |
| _luser | jim_p - it's not my machine, can't install, can only use | 11:43 |
| jim_p | nyvhax: are you there? this is a proprietary codel. it forces you to pay money for it | 11:44 |

| _luser | ActionParsnip - that link does not list kernel versions | 11:45 |
| anezch | ActionParnsip JAunty Jackalope? are you serious | 11:45 |
| jim_p | _luser: use debians. debian supports 12 architectures! | 11:45 |
| xinux | any body now how to use Xchat anti band, Kick on ubuntu | 11:45 |
| ActionParsnip | _luser: not sure about shipped kernels but you can update to any kernel you wish from repos | 11:45 |

| _luser | jim_p - I'm 100% debian on my own machines, but it doesn't have a live CD | 11:46 |
| xinux | any body now how to use Xchat anti band, Kick on ubuntu | 11:46 |
| xinux | or what more software for IRC | 11:46 |
| ikonia | xinux what ? | 11:46 |
| jim_p | _luser: well... this year debian decided to follow the trend. debian lenny beta 2 is a live cd! | 11:46 |
| _luser | ActionParsnip - since when have you been able to change kernels while running. | 11:47 |
| ActionParsnip | anezch: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases | 11:47 |
| jim_p | _luser: you mean upgrade to a newer one? | 11:47 |
| ActionParsnip | anezch: you tell me | 11:47 |
| anezch | tell what? | 11:47 |
| nachi_ | hello all! hey. im looking for a way to install subversion on my development apache server, so i will able to change the files in /var/www and then can have subversions of it... is that possible? or i need everytime to re-sync between my local hd and the webserver path? ... thanks! | 11:47 |
| ActionParsnip | anezch: its a horned jack rabbit | 11:47 |
| jim_p | ActionParsnip: yea. i dint like that animal either. its like a pokemon | 11:48 |
| _luser | jim_p - he said I could grab a new kernel from the repos. as I boot from CD, in order for his advice to be useful I'd have to be able to switch kernels on the fly. | 11:48 |
| xinux | some one always band me if I in room IRC | 11:48 |
| anezch | ActionParsnip the name is like a joke to me... | 11:48 |
| jim_p | _luser: why dont you use a live cd that has 2.6.26 kernel and do your job? or you want 2.6.17 in particular? | 11:49 |
| xinux | some one always kick me if i on room | 11:49 |
| erki | xinux: I hope there is no way to get around bans in Xchat. Banning is there fore a reason. | 11:49 |
| ActionParsnip | _luser: debian can be live | 11:49 |
| A[D]minS^Work | how i can download everything inside directory using wget ? | 11:49 |
| _luser | jim_p I want something which has case fan control. that needs >=2.6.17 | 11:49 |
| xinux | yes.. | 11:50 |
| darren__ | ActionParsnip, sorry to be a pain and hi again dont spose you know how to compleaty remove a wifi driver from ubuntu | 11:50 |
| jim_p | _luser: ubuntu 8.04 = 2.6.24. debian live 2.6.26. sidux 2.6.26! what else do you want? | 11:50 |
| ActionParsnip | _luser: http://live.debian.net/ | 11:50 |
| nachi_ | ideas?\ | 11:50 |
| NeMeSiS_ | when i do not safe remove my extenal harddrive from my windows i can not mount it on my linux how do i mount it | 11:51 |
| erki | A[D]minS^Work: Something like wget -r -l 0 [Address] | 11:51 |
| xinux | so i want to software for anti kick or anti bans | 11:51 |
| xinux | :D | 11:51 |
| ActionParsnip | _luser: i heard someone say you can quite recently | 11:51 |
| erki | A[D]minS^Work: But there are definately tons of examples to be websearched for. | 11:51 |
| NeMeSiS_ | :d | 11:51 |
| ActionParsnip | jim_p: its still ubuntu, were you happy with a gibbon? | 11:51 |
| NeMeSiS_ | when i do not safe remove my extenal harddrive from my windows i can not mount it on my linux how do i mount it | 11:51 |
| erki | NeMeSiS_: Mount it again in windows and do a safe removal | 11:51 |
| xinux | any body help me | 11:52 |
| jim_p | ActionParsnip: i am happy with existant animals, not fictious ones | 11:52 |
| _luser | jim_p - all I need is a shell and a compiler. that's why I'd rather Xubuntu rather than kubuntu or ubuntu | 11:52 |
| nachi_ | ideas? | 11:52 |
| jim_p | _luser: or an xfce one? | 11:52 |
| ActionParsnip | _luser: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/10069/ | 11:52 |
| erki | xinux: Teaching people how to circumvent IRC bans is probably not a main goal of this channel... | 11:52 |
| darren__ | Hi every body does any one know how to compleatly remove a wifi driver from ubuntu | 11:52 |
| jim_p | darren__: what driver? | 11:52 |
| A[D]minS^Work | erki, thx :D | 11:53 |
| erki | nachi_: Why subversion? Do you need file history? | 11:53 |
| NeMeSiS_ | but is it always to be so | 11:53 |
| darren__ | jim_p, i think itsa beta driver with the new ubuntu rtl8187 | 11:53 |
| bimberi | apt-get install dont-be-a-prat-on-irc ? | 11:53 |
| erki | NeMeSiS_: Until the linux-ntfs devs decide that they can safely handle unsafely removed NTFS-disks, I gues yes | 11:53 |
| jim_p | _luser: well., 2.6.17 kernel is as old as dapper or edgy. try a live cd of these | 11:54 |
| _luser | Erm - this really doesn't look like supporting 12 architectures: http://live.debian.net/cdimage/etch-builds/current/ | 11:54 |
| paducahguy1 | hello ? | 11:54 |
| _luser | jim_p 7.10 fails to boot | 11:54 |
| jim_p | darren__: how did you install it? | 11:54 |
| xinux | o I see | 11:54 |
| xinux | thanks erki | 11:54 |
| jim_p | _luser: use 8.04 or sidux or debian | 11:54 |
| NeMeSiS_ | but i guess it will not be so wit fat | 11:54 |
| ikonia | xinux: that doesn't exist, just behave yourself and you won't get kicked | 11:54 |
| === paducahguy1 is now known as Ximal | ||
| darren__ | jim_p, i belive its installed with the new ubuntu because my wifi worked with just pluging in | 11:55 |
| erki | NeMeSiS_: Correct, FAT doesn't have [as much / any] journalling, so there are no unsafe dismounts (wild guess) | 11:55 |
| jim_p | darren__: ok, so what is the problem? | 11:55 |
| ikonia | darren__: please take this discusion tio #ubuntu+1 only instead of discussing all your problems in both channels | 11:55 |
| xinux | but I don't now why I always kicked bay OPS | 11:56 |
| _luser | jim_p 8.04 looks like epic fail: "Note to PowerPC (PPC) and SPARC users: These types of computers are not supported by the newest versions of Ubuntu. " | 11:56 |
| Ximal | ? | 11:56 |
| jim_p | _luser: use debian then. debian does not do these | 11:56 |
| ikonia | xinux: that is not for discussion here | 11:56 |
| nachi_ | erki: i working with my brother on a project and i need to able to go back everytime or work on the same file and see the changes | 11:56 |
| _luser | "However Ubuntu 6.06 is still supported and available for your machine." - but 6.06 turns the case fans into helicopter mode. | 11:56 |
| jim_p | _luser: hahahahahahahahahaha | 11:56 |
| anezch | _luser: what do you mean? | 11:57 |
| xinux | ok sorry ikonia.. | 11:57 |
| _luser | jim_p I'm yet to find a debian live CD for PPC64, but still clicking away | 11:57 |
| abe3k | hello , I have a serial/usb converter connected to a device but ubuntu fails to detect the device, is there any drivers for serial/usb converter that I should know of ? | 11:57 |
| NeMeSiS_ | thank erki | 11:58 |
| jim_p | _luser: let me look | 11:58 |
| erki | nachi_: Ah, so what you want is to have the web server serve files DIRECTLY from the subversion server storage? | 11:58 |
| jim_p | _luser: is it different than ppc? | 11:58 |
| erki | NeMeSiS_: yw | 11:58 |
| Raylz | _luser: just use the normal ppc cd of debian | 11:59 |
| nachi_ | yeah | 11:59 |
| _luser | jim_p ppc and ppc64 are unified now | 11:59 |
| nachi_ | so once i do change its shown on www server but i will able to go back | 11:59 |
| abe3k | hello , I have a serial/usb converter connected to a device but ubuntu fails to detect the device, is there any drivers for serial/usb converter that I should know of ? | 11:59 |
| jim_p | _luser: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/lenny_di_beta2/powerpc/iso-cd/ this? | 11:59 |
| NeMeSiS_ | do i have to worry about linux | 12:00 |
| Raylz | if you ask me, installing from livecd is harder than from the alternate | 12:00 |
| erki | nachi_: Why not just have a cron job do an SVN update to the /var and /www directorys? I'm not entirely sure that subversion storages are suited for direct reading from apache. | 12:00 |
| ActionParsnip1 | NeMeSiS_: in what way? | 12:00 |
| _luser | jim_p - which one's the live CD? | 12:00 |
| jim_p | _luser: the cd1 | 12:00 |
| ActionParsnip1 | abe3k: does anything show in lsusb? | 12:00 |
| jim_p | _luser: or no? | 12:01 |
| NeMeSiS_ | like attack | 12:01 |
| jim_p | _luser: gentoo also supports a bunch of architectures | 12:01 |
| _luser | jim_p is is possible to see a list of packages that are available if I boot from that CD? I need a compiler. | 12:01 |
| nachi_ | so is there a better solution? | 12:01 |
| abe3k | <ActionParsnip1> : this is what I get Bus 005 Device 002: ID 1058:0702 Western Digital Technologies, Inc. Bus 005 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 | 12:02 |

| erki | nachi_: Better than what? I rather liked my solution actually ;) | 12:02 |
| _luser | jim_p I'd rather stick pineapples up my arse than use gentoo. | 12:02 |
| ActionParsnip1 | abe3k: please use pastebin in future | 12:02 |
| abe3k | the device is a gsm 3.5g dialup modem | 12:02 |
| erki | _luser: Yeah, don't do that, it hurts. A lot. | 12:02 |
| jim_p | _luser: hahahahahhahaha | 12:02 |
| jim_p | _luser: well you only need a ppc live cd! | 12:03 |

| CWave | working | 12:39 |
| beznikiy | my system ignores this option :( | 12:39 |
| ActionParsnip1 | CWave: then your DNS is screwed | 12:39 |
| CWave | appach is fonctionaly normaly | 12:39 |
| ActionParsnip1 | CWave: the system changing website names to IPs is broken | 12:39 |
| === thunderstruck is now known as gnomefreak | ||
| CWave | i see | 12:39 |
| CWave | how can i resolve that | 12:39 |
| erki | CWave: so www.absba.org doesn't work when you browse it? Only by IP? | 12:39 |
| CWave | no it works | 12:40 |
| CWave | but google or yahoo msn ... not working | 12:40 |
| CWave | is worried | 12:40 |
| ActionParsnip1 | CWave: http://209.85.173.103 | 12:40 |
| ActionParsnip1 | CWave: does that work? | 12:40 |
| e-frame | DNS spoofing :D good >:) | 12:40 |
| CWave | yes | 12:40 |
| CWave | absba and c.la are working | 12:40 |
| CWave | but google and yahoo and others is not | 12:41 |
| ActionParsnip1 | CWave: you have no DNS to change names to ip addresses which is what the internet uses | 12:41 |
| CWave | only those websites | 12:41 |
| manish | hi guys , there is something wrong with my zimbra. Its not downloading the latest mails from yesterday. I think it is syncing the actions like deleting mails i deleted while offline but when it comes to downloading mails it is not doing so ... what do you think can be the reason and how can i correct it .... | 12:41 |
| ActionParsnip1 | CWave: what is in your /etc/resolv.conf ? | 12:41 |
| CWave | let me see | 12:41 |
| ActionParsnip1 | CWave: use pastebin if its multiple lines | 12:42 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !paste | CWave | 12:42 |
| ubottu | CWave: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 12:42 |
| CWave | ActionParsnip1 im new in ubuntu sorry if i ask much :) | 12:42 |

| e-frame | that's www.google.com's IP :) | 12:43 |

| manish | Start: there is a channel but no body's responding there | 12:43 |
| manish | thats why i turned in here | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip1 | CWave: well its not working | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip1 | CWave: try nslookup www.bmezine.com | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip1 | CWave: does give an ip | 12:44 |
| CWave | e-frame works fine the ping | 12:44 |
| jim_p | does anyone know a good alternative to putty? | 12:44 |
| e-frame | CWave: then open 216.239.61.104 on browser | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip1 | jim_p: for ssh from ubuntu? | 12:44 |
| CWave | but is 399 ms is | 12:44 |
| jim_p | ActionParsnip1: yes | 12:45 |
| ActionParsnip1 | jim_p: you can ssh from terminal | 12:45 |
| CWave | e-frame not working still :) | 12:45 |
| Slart | jim_p: I just use ssh from a terminal.. but I don't think you get profiles and stuff | 12:45 |
| ActionParsnip1 | CWave: you need to sort your dns server out dude | 12:45 |
| e-frame | your browser doesn't work with that IP ? | 12:46 |
| jim_p | ActionParsnip1: can you give me an example | 12:46 |
| e-frame | CWave: your browser doesn't work with that IP ? | 12:46 |
| ia | hello, everybody. if someone use intrepid beta, then could you check and try to reproduce this bug - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/287134. It's very strange bug and I think that only I have it. | 12:46 |
| jim_p | Slart: like ssh ip:port ? | 12:46 |
| ActionParsnip1 | CWave: add one of these to /etc/resolv.conf | 12:46 |
| Slart | ia: #ubuntu+1 | 12:46 |
| ActionParsnip1 | CWave: http://www.tech-faq.com/public-dns-servers.shtml | 12:46 |
| CWave | no e-frame | 12:46 |
| e-frame | ActionParsnip1: CWave cannot open google with the IP. so it's out of DNS problem :) | 12:46 |
| CWave | ActionParsnip1 have i to change my dns ? | 12:46 |
| Slart | jim_p: something like that.. check man ssh for the gory details | 12:46 |
| ActionParsnip1 | CWave: i thought you said you could connect to google via the ip ? | 12:47 |
| jim_p | !ssh | 12:47 |
| CWave | no is not | 12:47 |
| ubottu | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ | 12:47 |
| jim_p | even the bot suggests putty!!!! | 12:47 |
| erki | CWave: So browsing to http://216.239.61.104 doesn't work? | 12:47 |
| bastid_raZor | jim_p; for windows.. not ubuntu | 12:47 |
| erki | jim_p: I don't see why you wouldn't want to use putty :) | 12:47 |
| Slart | jim_p: for windows.. | 12:48 |
| CWave | my browser can only get to some websites not to all | 12:48 |
| CWave | cant get to google yahoo ..... | 12:48 |
| e-frame | well, CWave ask your ISP :) | 12:48 |
| pfifo_ | i tried to disable disk checking in fstab but my system still insists on doing the disk check, how do i disable the boot up disk checking? | 12:48 |
| Slart | jim_p: what is wrong with putty btw? | 12:48 |
| jim_p | bastid_raZor: ? i want a gui app for the job. and putty looks like !@#$ i cant even tell what is ticked and whats not | 12:48 |
| erki | CWave: Please test the link I sent so we can draw a conclusion | 12:48 |
| CWave | ok dude momento | 12:48 |
| Slart | jim_p: gnome-terminal + ssh would be gui... or gui-issh =) | 12:49 |
| Pici | manish: Floodbot2 will not respond to you, its a bot. | 12:49 |
| bastid_raZor | jim_p; for ssh using the terminal is by far the best way to go about it. | 12:49 |
| erki | If it works, it's a DNS issue. If it doesn't work, it might be a routing issue (which might be your ISP messing it up) | 12:49 |
| ktne | hello | 12:50 |
| pfifo_ | aside from deleting 'e2fsck' is there a way to disable disk checking? | 12:50 |
| skrofs | hi guys, i just installed my 3d card using envyNG. Looks like everything worked out perfectly:) ubuntu, yeey!!:) I used a tool called glxgears to check if 3d was working, but i dont relly understand the output, if its working or not.. at 1240x1024 i get 40-41 framerates pr sec.. is this ok for a old nvidia FX5500? 120Mb Ram | 12:50 |
| ktne | how can i change console size? | 12:50 |
| manish | Pici: Thanks for telling me , How do u know whether someone is a bot or not | 12:50 |
| CWave | ActionParsnip1 the dns u gave me is for us only i guess | 12:50 |
| Pici | manish: Usually because the have the word 'bot' in their name... | 12:50 |
| CWave | erki i didnt see the adress u gave dude can u paste me again pls :) | 12:50 |
| ktne | do i have to use vga=ask or is there another method that doesn't require a reboot? | 12:50 |
| erki | CWave: So browsing to http://216.239.61.104 doesn't work? | 12:50 |
| Slart | pfifo_: afaik doing the fstab config thingy should disable it.. sure you did it right? | 12:51 |
| jim_p | ok. thanks bastid_raZor and slackd00d and erki . can you give me an example? i want to ssh computer on ip 123.23.11.23 on port 22222. i provide username and pass | 12:51 |
| manish | that was so dump of me not to notice it | 12:51 |
| erki | jim_p: With putty? | 12:51 |
| CWave | erki with those symbles too ? | 12:51 |
| bastid_raZor | jim_p; ssh -p22222 iphere | 12:51 |
| pfifo_ | Slart, i think | 12:51 |
| erki | Symbols? Just copy-paste http://216.239.61.104 and paste it in your browser address bar | 12:51 |
| jim_p | erki: withe terminal or whatever | 12:51 |
| aing_tea | jhjkkj | 12:51 |
| CWave | well im here in windows and pc beside me with ubuntu | 12:52 |
| manish | Pici: thanks any ways ... do you have some info about zimbra... i have posted a query regarding a problem and no one has answered it yet... | 12:52 |
| pfifo_ | Slart, ohh i marked the wrong partition lol | 12:52 |
| CWave | so i trying to type it | 12:52 |
| erki | jim_p: Ok, then do what bastid_raZor suggested :) | 12:52 |
| jim_p | basti: cant i do ssh 123.23.11.23:22222 | 12:52 |
| Slart | jim_p: I would try "ssh username@123.23.11.23:22222" .. might be wrong though | 12:52 |
| Pici | manish: I know nothing about zimbra, sorry. Have you tried #zimbra ? | 12:52 |
| jim_p | because thats what i do :P | 12:52 |
| torgrim | jim_p: -p port | 12:52 |
| jim_p | :O | 12:52 |
| jim_p | i was doing it all wrong!!!!! | 12:53 |
| Slart | jim_p: bah.. sorry.. ssh username@123.23.11.23 -p 22222 | 12:53 |
| manish | ya nobodys responding ... the IRC is dead with no activity for half and hour now.... | 12:53 |
| jim_p | so its "ssh -p [number] ip ? | 12:53 |
| manish | Pici: | 12:53 |
| Pici | manish: Not every channel is nearly as active as #ubuntu | 12:53 |
| jim_p | so its "ssh -p [port] [ip] ? | 12:53 |
| erki | jim_p: Correct. | 12:53 |
| jim_p | great | 12:53 |
| jim_p | i will try it later on | 12:53 |
| erki | Even ssh -p port username@ip if you want | 12:54 |
| erki | Otherwise it will assume that it is the same usernname as you have on your own computer, which might or might not be correct | 12:54 |
| bastid_raZor | jim_p; if your username is different you'll need to specify the username like erki has just shown | 12:54 |
| jim_p | erki: i want to connect as normal user there, so i dont provide a username | 12:54 |
| manish | Pici; Ya i can see that now... | 12:55 |
| CWave | nth still erki | 12:55 |
| manish | i will post the problem once again here so that there can be some response from teh new entrants | 12:55 |
| manish | there is something woring with my zimbra. Its not downloading the latest mails from yesterday. I think it is syncing the actions like deleting mails i deleted while offline but when it comes to downloading mails it is not doing so ... what do you think can be the reason and how can i correct it .... has anybody faced a similar problem earlier.... Has it something to do with the mail download limits ... can i change them | 12:55 |
| CWave | wb ActionParsnip | 12:56 |
| erki | CWave: If browsing to the IP doesn't work, than I believe the problem might be out of your hands. | 12:56 |
| skrofs | hi guys, i just installed my 3d card using envyNG. Looks like everything worked out perfectly:) ubuntu, yeey!!:) | 12:56 |
| CWave | i beleive is in my rooter | 12:56 |
| CWave | but how i donnu | 12:56 |
| erki | skrofs: I don't know if 40fps is reasonable for FX5500 :) | 12:56 |
| skrofs | ok | 12:57 |
| erki | skrofs: I on | 12:57 |
| ActionParsnip | CWave: try: tracert 216.239.61.104 | 12:57 |
| weise | weise | 12:57 |
| erki | I don't even know how the benchmarking works. But I do own a Geforce FX5200 Go, and I can tell you that that card is preeeeetty slow | 12:57 |
| CWave | to connect to it ? | 12:57 |
| CaMason | is there a command like GREP that can show me the number of instances of a match in a file? | 12:57 |
| ActionParsnip | CWave: oops in linux its tracroute 216.239.61.104 | 12:57 |
| ActionParsnip | CWave: no, to see where the connection bails | 12:57 |
| sparkey | anyone here got some experience when it comes to HLDS (Half life dedicated server) ? | 12:58 |
| CWave | ok 1 min | 12:58 |
| ActionParsnip | CaMason: grep started in linux | 12:58 |
| jrib | CaMason: grep -c (see man grep) | 12:58 |
| skrofs | Yeah it sounds slow:) are there other ways of testing 3d and if card is working properly? | 12:58 |
| manish | ActionParsnip: can you help me out with Zimbra please.... | 12:58 |
| erki | CWave: Minor correction "traceroute 216.239.61.104". Minor spelling error | 12:58 |
| CaMason | jrib: I didn' think to check grep itself! Thanks, i'll try that | 12:58 |
| ActionParsnip | manish: dude it was so long ago and you havent said what is wrong with it | 12:58 |
| CaMason | works perfectly | 12:59 |
| manish | ActionParsnip: there is something wrong with my zimbra. Its not downloading the latest mails from yesterday. I think it is syncing the actions like deleting mails i deleted while offline but when it comes to downloading mails it is not doing so ... what do you think can be the reason and how can i correct it .... has anybody faced a similar problem earlier.... Has it something to do with the mail download limits ... can i change them | 12:59 |
| ActionParsnip | manish: all youu've said is "can you help" and without any other information, the answer is "no" | 12:59 |
| CWave | command introvable :/ | 12:59 |
| erki | Wut? Introvable? | 13:00 |
| manish | ActionParsnip1:so now this is the problem and I really have no idea of what could have gone wrong... | 13:00 |
| ActionParsnip | CWave: did you use traceroute | 13:00 |
| CWave | tracert is not installed | 13:00 |
| ActionParsnip | CWave: sudo apt-get install traceroute | 13:00 |
| CWave | where can i d/l it | 13:00 |
| CWave | ok | 13:00 |
| erki | Will be exciting to see if apt-get works when most of the internet is broken :) | 13:01 |
| ActionParsnip | manish: check username and password and pop settings | 13:01 |

| kakazza | "deb /path/to/ubuntu/ main"? | 13:20 |
| erki | ActionParsnip: Yeah, it's a tad confusing, actually | 13:20 |

| vlt | Hello. I created an audio cd image file using k3b's mode "clone copy". How can I create a copy on a CD-R now? | 13:20 |
| catrina | o | 13:20 |
| kakazza | "Download from:" Says "server for my_country" | 13:21 |
| ActionParsnip | vlt: open k3b again and then file -> open the iso | 13:21 |
| kakazza | I can't add them there, only in the third party tab | 13:21 |
| catrina | c e qualcuno? | 13:21 |
| IdleOne | !it > catrina | 13:21 |
| ubottu | catrina, please see my private message | 13:21 |
| catrina | ? | 13:21 |
| ActionParsnip | kakazza: the "tab" you refer to simply updates that file | 13:21 |
| IdleOne | !it | 13:21 |
| ubottu | Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) | 13:21 |
| vlt | ActionParsnip: The image file doesn't appear in the file open dialog. Which extension does k3b expect? | 13:22 |
| jrib | kakazza: In the "Ubuntu Software" tab (first one), click on the "Download from" drop down menu and select "other" | 13:22 |
| kakazza | E: The list of sources could not be rad. | 13:22 |
| ActionParsnip | vlt: iso | 13:22 |
| jrib | kakazza: hrmm, that doesn't seem to let you add a repo there. See if you university is already on the mirror list though | 13:22 |
| kakazza | ok, sec | 13:23 |
| ActionParsnip | vlt: or you can right click the iso and select open with k3b | 13:23 |
| qah | Hello. | 13:24 |
| vlt | ActionParsnip: It's not an ISO image. It's a clone copy of an audio cd. | 13:24 |
| qah | I have a question. How do you download files from the internet with ubuntu server edition? | 13:24 |
| qah | Since everything is command line | 13:25 |
| jrib | qah: wget or curl | 13:25 |
| kakazza | Can I manually add it to the sources.list? | 13:25 |
| vlt | ActionParsnip: When trying to open it, k3b says "unable to open file" after several minutes of reading (the 600 MB file) | 13:25 |
| jrib | kakazza: sure, you can do as ActionParsnip suggested | 13:25 |
| qah | jrib: So if I type wget and the path to the file, it will download it? | 13:25 |
| jrib | qah: yep | 13:25 |
| jrib | well, "url to the file" really | 13:25 |
| kakazza | The way ActionParsnip suggested only lets me add a new source to "Third Party Applications" | 13:26 |
| ActionParsnip | vlt: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/how-do-i-burn-iso-with-k3b-154361/ | 13:26 |

| qah | jrib: Okay. Thanks alot. I am typing to you right now with irssi in ubuntu server edition. I am using VMWare though. :P | 13:26 |
| ActionParsnip | kakazza: doesnt matter, as long as its IN that file it will work | 13:26 |
| jrib | kakazza: nah, that was *my* suggestion. ActionParsnip said you could do: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list that you can change the URL | 13:26 |
| qah | Bye | 13:26 |
| vlt | ActionParsnip: Yes, I know. But it is not an ISO file. | 13:27 |

| vlt | ActionParsnip: "data" | 13:30 |
| kakazza | How do I force apt-get to use MY server and not the first in the list? | 13:30 |
| ActionParsnip | vlt: useful, id delete it and create an iso of the cd, then you can burn that dead easy | 13:30 |

| erUSUL | !iso | scuser | 13:46 |
| ubottu | scuser: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 13:46 |
| ActionParsnip | caris_mere: id check the connector tpe then play from there | 13:46 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: is it an iso? | 13:47 |
| soneil | those instructions should work for any file that's formatted as a filesystem. iso is just the most common use-case | 13:47 |

| ActionParsnip | manir: ask away, laptop make and model means very little, its whats under the hood that counts | 13:49 |

| _luser | tarbar - if so, then just hold down 'c' after powerup, and it will boot from CD | 14:14 |
| [admin] | linkinxp, export will add / update the env. variable | 14:14 |

| TarBar | ok | 14:15 |
| TarBar | sweet | 14:15 |

| oliver_ | songbird | 14:16 |
| TarBar | To put the iso on a cd can i burn it using the windows xp thingy or does it require a seperate ap | 14:16 |
| willwork4foo | yok3r: amarok | 14:16 |
| jrib | linkinxp: bugs.ubuntu.com. As for you current problem, you probably need pidgin-dev installed | 14:16 |
| sirMajid | hi | 14:16 |
| oliver_ | no songbird | 14:16 |
| domi235 | yok3r: amarok | 14:16 |
| linkinxp | jrib, let me see | 14:16 |
| ActionParsnip | !best | yok3r | 14:16 |
| ubottu | yok3r: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 14:16 |
| oliver_ | u can download song on songbird | 14:16 |
| [admin] | yok3r, search for gtkpod | 14:16 |
| guyvdb_ | linkinxp you might need to install pidgin-dev -- sudo apt-get install pidgin-dev | 14:17 |
| willwork4foo | never heard of songbird, oliver_ - does it work nicely with iPods? | 14:17 |
| linkinxp | im on it! | 14:17 |
| linkinxp | will that fix the musictracker? | 14:17 |
| sparkey | domi235: ye but you can set the maxupdaterate and maxcmdrate in the server config, both mine is set to 101 which is good | 14:17 |
| [admin] | TarBar, nero / ashampoo any application on any platform to burn | 14:17 |

| sirMajid | I can't open my rar files...do you know any library for archieve manager that helps opening rar files? | 14:17 |
| ActionParsnip | !rar | sirMajid | 14:17 |
| ubottu | sirMajid: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 14:17 |
| [admin] | sirex`, sudo apt-get install unrar-free | 14:18 |
| jrib | linkinxp: no, installing pidgin-dev won't fix musictracker, but it will probably let you get farther in compiling pidgin-rhythmbox. To fix musictracker, you need to file bugs so developers are aware of the issue (or comment on the existing bug if it is already reported) | 14:18 |
| guyvdb_ | sirMajid: first -- sudo apt-get install unrar --- then --- unrar e rar-file-name | 14:18 |
| [admin] | sirex`, then unrar-free [rar_file] | 14:18 |
| oliver_ | how do i do highlighted text? | 14:18 |

| sirMajid | tnx... let me try that | 14:18 |

| ikonia | Puppy what RAID CARD are you using | 15:44 |
| ikonia | Puppy: onboard | 15:44 |
| scientes | what do i do about DRDY errors? | 15:44 |
| scientes | on boot | 15:44 |
| ikonia | right - thats "Fakeraid" then - not real raid | 15:44 |
| Puppy | ikonia - ob sata | 15:44 |
| ikonia | Puppy: I need you to speak in english - what does "ob sata" mean - on board ? | 15:44 |
| ikonia | Puppy: and sata is not a chipset or "card" thats a technology, the card models i an X chipset, or a Y card | 15:45 |
| danbh_intrepid | Deathzorz: exactly. Gnome 2.24 is the core suite of programs in intrepid. | 15:45 |
| ikonia | Puppy: from the output your sending me it looks like your using an onboard intel chipset to drive a fake raid disk setup | 15:45 |
| der|kunstler | is there a way to take a screenshot and select the area of the screen that I want ? | 15:45 |
| garutachi | garutachi | 15:45 |
| Puppy | ikonia - im not sure what you mean by " card " | 15:46 |
| ikonia | Puppy: does that sound right / | 15:46 |
| Deathzorz | @danbh_intrepid: Okay cool, I can see why now. Thanks. Is there a version I can upgrade to that won't break and that will play MKV files a little better? Like how VLC does? | 15:46 |
| ikonia | Puppy: what raid hardware are your disks hangign off | 15:46 |
| ikonia | Puppy: you said you had real raid - that means it must be using a raid card as real raid devices don't come on motherboard | 15:46 |
| danbh_intrepid | Deathzorz: is that why you want to upgrade totem? | 15:47 |
| Puppy | ikonia - give me a min, let me look | 15:47 |
| the|Navigator | Our ubuntu 7.04 is stick in low-graphics mode... what can I do? | 15:47 |
| ikonia | Puppy are the disks plugged into the motherboard or a pci card ? | 15:47 |
| jon__ | Does radeon 9250 usualy works on ubuntu? | 15:47 |
| garutachi | tried and tried to get my ATI card working on my laptop. But X keeps failing to start, I have to go in and change fglrx to vesa | 15:47 |
| Deathzorz | @danbh_intrepid: Yeah. And I like the interface a bit better than VLC, and since Totem is the default, I figure it should perform better as the movie player. | 15:47 |
| Puppy | ikonia - board | 15:47 |
| ikonia | Puppy right, so it's not real raid, its a technology called £fake raid" | 15:48 |
| ikonia | Puppy: and that is most likley your problem | 15:48 |
| Puppy | ikonia - never heard of it, do we have a solution ? | 15:48 |
| ikonia | Puppy: fakeraid is a windows software raid setup, that is terrible, and has even worse linux support, your dropping to the busybox prompt because grub cannot see your fake raid disks at boot time | 15:48 |
| ikonia | !fakeraid | Puppy | 15:48 |
| ubottu | Puppy: raid is Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID wto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 15:48 |

| guyvdb_ | rebel_kid once sshd is configured do ssh user@server -p odd-port-no | 15:58 |
| rebel_kid | oh thank you | 15:58 |
| syuroff_ | oh yeah... if you move it, you have to tell the other side that it's not in the usual place anymore | 15:59 |
| punkrokk | Gun_Smoke: it is bridged, but Ubuntu used to see it, then I moved it to a different ESX server, and now it doesn't notice it | 15:59 |

| punkrokk | is there a way to force Ubuntu to detect new hardware via command line? | 16:01 |
| guyvdb_ | punkrokk: what have you plugged in? what new hardware? | 16:01 |
| mxdoom | !firewall | 16:01 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 16:01 |
| Gun_Smoke | punkrokk, so you moved your ubuntu VM to a different server? | 16:01 |
| Puppy | ikonia - i fall at the first jump, because the resolution asumes you are getting the initial installer screen which i am not. | 16:01 |
| punkrokk | an network interface, from VMWare host | 16:02 |
| Guest60412 | how can i access .rpm file on ubuntu? | 16:02 |

| Puppy | ikonia - and i have a complety seperate drive ready for ubuntu, so win / lin dont need to raid to the same drive | 16:02 |
| jrib | Guest60412: you don't use rpm in ubuntu. Did you do what I said to enable effects? | 16:02 |
| ikonia | Puppy wel you need to boot the machine with safe graphics mode | 16:02 |
| punkrokk | Gun_Smoke: and it won't see the NIC, and I also installed VMware tools, and it doesn't see the VMXnet interface | 16:02 |

| Puppy | ikonia - how ? | 16:03 |
| punkrokk | but I'm confused | 16:03 |
| punkrokk | just don't know ubuntu that well | 16:03 |
| ikonia | Puppy: is there not an option on the boot menu to boot into safe mode | 16:03 |
| punkrokk | from a hardware angle | 16:03 |
| Puppy | ikonia - for windows, yeah | 16:03 |
| ikonia | Puppy you've also got a really bad video card for linux support | 16:03 |
| Guest60412 | jrib: yes i have but the cube effect is not available on my current compiz version | 16:03 |

| IntangibleLiquid | has anyone tried XO Sugar on Hardy? | 16:25 |

| IntangibleLiquid | dr_willis: weird, after it loads, there's only a search box with two options on the right, which renders me clueless as to what to do next | 16:26 |

| ikonia | rebel_kid well yes and no, your errors conflict with line 70 | 16:30 |
| dexter | ikonia; my system goes 4 drive checking wen i start my system... then it asks me root password...after that..the system gives me few messages stating that some commands in bash shell are not found | 16:30 |
| garutachi | Ikonia: I have tried various ways of installing fglrx and every time I reboot X fails to start | 16:31 |
| rebel_kid | ikonia, im a bit confused by this, im not sure what your telling me | 16:31 |
| ikonia | dexter get the exact messsages | 16:31 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid: I'll go through it with you now, but the bottom line is your key "looks" corrupt | 16:31 |
| Ohmu_ | Sometimes my USB HDD gets detected automatically and an icon appears on the desktop. Sometimes not. Can anyone help me out? | 16:31 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid: got the pastebin | 16:31 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid: lets go through it | 16:31 |
| rebel_kid | ikonia, got it | 16:31 |
| knoppix | does anybody know jim_p? | 16:32 |
| ikonia | ok lines 09/12 seem to suggest that your key header is split onto multiple lines - even though visually it's not | 16:32 |
| rebel_kid | ikonia, ok | 16:32 |
| DasEi | modprobe -r ehci-hcd , re-plug afterwards , Ohmu_: | 16:32 |

| === lmr[away] is now known as lmr | ||
| ikonia | dexter: what is the warning before it asks you for the root passsword | 16:33 |
| rebel_kid | ikonia, alright | 16:33 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid: line 70 also shows a valid id_rsa key | 16:33 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid: followign so far ? | 16:33 |
| rebel_kid | ikonia, following | 16:34 |
| dexter | ikonia; it just says give root password for system maintanence | 16:34 |
| === desti_T2 is now known as desti | ||
| ikonia | rebel_kid then go down to 74 - it tries a non-existant key (.ssh/identify) fails on that and moes onto your key (.ssh/id_rsa) | 16:34 |
| IntangibleLiquid | dr_willis: some activities work, some don't, i'm looking for applications beyond games, can't seem to find them anywhere | 16:35 |
| indian_munnda | Ohmu_: when it is not detected automatically that time is it be mounted or you need to do that? | 16:35 |
| rebel_kid | ikonia, ok | 16:35 |
| kc8pxy_ | ok, i found out how to get lm-sensors to work, but all i can do is get it to show on CLI. where can i get a GUI monitor (a la Gkrellm) for my k8temp ? | 16:35 |
| Puppy | ikonia - do i need to go get a different card ? | 16:35 |
| dr_willis | IntangibleLiquid, you may need to install abiword seperately. I think that XO was supposed to use abiword as its word processor | 16:35 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid: 76 - it sends the key but something happens as it doesn't like the response/key and moves on to try id_dsa which you don't have and then tries a straight password | 16:35 |
| ikonia | Puppy: don't know - I don't use ati because they are bad | 16:35 |
| legend2440 | MarkRichman: open synaptic >settings>repositories>ubuntu software tab choose download from Other then Select Best Server it will do a speed test to choose best one | 16:35 |
| Puppy | ikonia - bad for Ubuntu mebby ... | 16:35 |
| rebel_kid | ikonia, yeah | 16:35 |
| ikonia | Puppy bad for anyl inux | 16:36 |
| dexter | ikonia; it just says give root password for system maintanence | 16:36 |
| MarkRichman | legend2440: i am just trying to download the installer .iso | 16:36 |
| Ohmu_ | DasEi: That doesn't seem to do anything | 16:36 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid that something is what can't be explained | 16:36 |
| ikonia | dexter: it needs to give a warning before that | 16:36 |
| Puppy | Anyone can help me to get my X1950 Pro running ? | 16:36 |
| legend2440 | MarkRichman: oh ok thought you already had it installed | 16:36 |
| DasEi | Ohmu_:does lsusb find the drive ? | 16:36 |
| DasEi | does* | 16:36 |
| dexter | okkk i'll check it out | 16:36 |
| rebel_kid | ikonia, ok, i understand now, but what do i do? | 16:36 |
| MarkRichman | legend2440: nope...cant find anything that goes faster than 80kbps | 16:36 |
| Ohmu_ | DasEi, indian_munnda: Maybe when I pull it out and plug it in again, it wont show til I restart... | 16:37 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid my personal feeling is deelte your key directorys stuff as you've got a few odd files in there, re-create the keys and re-set it up | 16:37 |
| Kr0ntab | MarkRichman: try http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu-releases/hardy/ | 16:37 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid: thats my personal feeling, it will only take 10 minutes | 16:37 |
| IntangibleLiquid | dr_willis: i was hoping XO works well on ubuntu, because that would mean a significant start for my project | 16:37 |
| DasEi | Ohmu_:when plugged in, does lsusb find the drive ? | 16:37 |
| rebel_kid | ikonia, your talking locally right? and just rm -rf the ~/.ssh directory? | 16:37 |
| Ohmu_ | DasEi: Yup! it got it | 16:37 |
| Kr0ntab | I get about 1.5MB/ps in firefox... | 16:37 |
| garutachi | damn ATI pisses me off!!!! | 16:37 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid not the whole directory no | 16:37 |
| rebel_kid | ikonia, just all the keys? | 16:38 |
| Kr0ntab | desktop iso in about 5 mins | 16:38 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid: you'll need to do this locally, but you'll need to get your new public key put on the target server | 16:38 |
| DasEi | Ohmu_:and can't find it in /media or /mnt ? | 16:38 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid: yeah, just the keys | 16:38 |
| Puppy | garutachi - not having problems with X1950 are you ? | 16:38 |
| rebel_kid | ikonia, id_rsa.pub is a key i sent over from the remote, delete that and resend? | 16:39 |
| scientes | can somone upload a default /etc/passwd | 16:39 |
| garutachi | puppy: nope. ATI 350M | 16:39 |
| scientes | mine got eaten | 16:39 |
| Puppy | garutachi - can you load the installer ? | 16:39 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid: delete *rsa* - recreate new private/public keys and re-send the .pub key | 16:39 |
| DasEi | Puppy: running hardy ? | 16:39 |
| garutachi | puppy: which installer? fglrx? | 16:39 |
| rebel_kid | ikonia, so i need to create new keys remote and local? | 16:40 |
| ecraven | hey | 16:40 |
| Puppy | DasEi - pardon ? | 16:40 |
| ecraven | after updating a few days ago, my firefox shows only underlines, no text, on google.com | 16:40 |
| Ohmu_ | DasEi: it has /mnt/OhmusHDD but that folder's empty | 16:40 |
| Ohmu_ | DasEi: I'm wondering if maybe it doesn't 'unmount' when I yank it out. So next time I plug it in, maybe it wont mount again as it thinks it's already mounted...(?) | 16:40 |
| ecraven | also most other pages | 16:40 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid no you need to create a public and a private key locally and put the public key you created locally on any host you wantt o access remotly in the authorized_keys file on the remote host in your home/.sh dir | 16:40 |
| DasEi | Ohmu_:if you type : mount usb found ? | 16:40 |
| Puppy | garutachi - ive try both install cd's | 16:40 |
| ecraven | i have msttcorefonts, i tried NO_PANGO, both don't help | 16:40 |
| ikonia | /home/$user.ssh dir rebel_kid | 16:40 |
| legend2440 | garutachi: open system>administration>hardware drivers is there a box to enable ati drivers? is it checked? | 16:41 |
| DasEi | Ohmu_:you always got to safely remove/unmount it before unplugging, else you will have to force (not good) it at remount | 16:41 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid: you may find this useful http://www.laubenheimer.net/ssh-keys.shtml | 16:41 |
| Kr0ntab | ecraven: have you tried determining if it's only a firefox font issue? close firefox... rename ~/.moxilla directory... reopen firefox. | 16:41 |
| DasEi | Puppy: running hardy heron or ibex ubuntu? | 16:41 |
| rebel_kid | ikonia, ty | 16:41 |
| ecraven | Kr0ntab: fonts work fine in openoffice and other applications | 16:41 |
| garutachi | well I can install it manual but X fails to start on reboot and I have to edit xorg.conf and put vesa inplace of fglrx | 16:41 |
| Ohmu_ | DasEi: Shouldn't udev detect it's removal and auto-unmount it? | 16:42 |
| Kr0ntab | ecraven: try that anyway... just to rule out the firefox configuration | 16:42 |
| ecraven | Kr0ntab: renaming .mozilla changes nothing | 16:42 |
| Puppy | DasEi - not sure, go tthese ISO's ubuntu-8.04.1-alternate-i386.iso and ubuntu-8.04.1-desktop-i386.iso | 16:42 |
| IntangibleLiquid | dr_willis: some hope these will be fixed by ubuntu 8.10 | 16:42 |
| venkat_partha | hello - wanted some help with respect to sound extracter | 16:42 |
| Naisenu | I have a new system built hardware-wise -- Live-CD (8.04) is not finding the SATA2 HD (only my EIDE 250GB data drive). Any idea why, how to fix? | 16:42 |

| DasEi | Puppy: hardy, so - I got a x 1600 running fine with the firmware-driver from ATI | 16:43 |
| ecraven | any suggestions? this leaves firefox unuseable.. it only happened since the update two days ago | 16:43 |
| venkat_partha | how to enable lame mp3 on sound juicer | 16:43 |
| Ohmu_ | DasEi: mount finds 9 entries. /dev/sda3, proc, /sys, varrun, varlock, udev, devshm, devpts, lrm, sercurityfs - it might be /dev/sda3 | 16:43 |
| dr_willis | IntangibleLiquid, i wouldent bet on it. I imagine the olpc/xo/sugar stuff is just some packages tossed in for people to play with.. start up a wiki page on making it useable under ubuntu, and check the forums I guess. :) | 16:43 |
| Kr0ntab | ecraven: have you looked in your appearance settings? for Gnome? | 16:43 |
| Puppy | DasEi - are you agp or agpx ? | 16:43 |

| venkat_partha | how to enable lame mp3 on sound juicer | 16:44 |
| DasEi | Ohmu_:so you will have to force-mount it and next times unmount it before unplugging | 16:45 |
| ecraven | Kr0ntab: yes, mostly Sans, once Sans Bold, once Monospace | 16:45 |
| venkat_partha | how to enable lame mp3 on sound juicer | 16:45 |
| Kr0ntab | ecraven: yeah that's normal... | 16:45 |

| Puppy | DasEi - coudl the problem me pci express ? | 16:45 |
| legend2440 | garutachi: do you have ubuntu installed or are you using the cd? | 16:45 |
| Puppy | be | 16:45 |

| venkat_partha | How do I enable lame mp3 on sound juicer ? | 16:46 |
| Kr0ntab | ecraven: hmm... okay... try this... create a brand new desktop user account... system ... administration... users and groups.... | 16:46 |
| Ohmu_ | DasEi: I don't think it's /dev/sda3 as I tried to umount it, but says 'cant -dev is busy' - but it's unplugged! So I think that must be some partition of my internal hdd. | 16:46 |
| DasEi | Ohmu_:no, whats the name of the device ? | 16:46 |
| legend2440 | garutachi: here are some instructions http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Hardy_Installation_Guide | 16:46 |
| Kr0ntab | ecraven: and log into that account. see if problem is user specific.... | 16:46 |
| DasEi | Ohmu_:plug it in, use sudo fdisk -l to get right device name | 16:47 |
| DasEi | *plug | 16:47 |
| Ohmu_ | DasEi: it's a Western Digital HDD. I don't know what it gets seen as, cos I can't see it right now. | 16:47 |
| Ohmu_ | DasEi: ok! | 16:47 |
| garutachi | Legend2440: I have tried that twice with no luck | 16:47 |
| DasEi | Puppy: tried the firmware from ATI ? | 16:48 |

| Kr0ntab | ecraven: hehe but guess you dont nmeed me to tell ya that | 16:49 |
| ikonia | rebel_kid: good man | 16:49 |

| mrwislr | can i install 32 bit ubuntu on 64 bit chip? | 16:51 |
| ecraven | mrwislr: yes | 16:51 |
| Naisenu | ecraven: I think it's cached or the system has a local copy stored | 16:51 |
| mrwislr | thought so | 16:51 |
| mrwislr | now even more | 16:51 |
| ecraven | mrwislr: though you can't if you have a 64bit itanium for example | 16:51 |
| dr_willis | mrwislr, i do it all the time.. :) i am testing 64bit now however.. so far its very good under 8.10 | 16:51 |
| mrwislr | i only have one ide port and a few sata spots | 16:51 |

| Naisenu | ecraven: It showed up on my system when i had my non-functional onboard NIC | 16:51 |
| mrwislr | the cdrom and harddrive are on the same ide slot can i still install as normal? | 16:52 |
| Puppyz | DasEi - so s it likly my card is causing th e problem ? | 16:52 |
| DasEi | Puppy: tried the firmware from ATI ? | 16:52 |
| ecraven | Naisenu: the problem is not the page content, but the fonts | 16:52 |
| DasEi | sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdc1 /mnt/OhmusHDD -o force ,Ohmu_ | 16:52 |
| mrwislr | if the cdrom and harddrive are using the same ide cable will a cd install still work | 16:53 |
| DasEi | mrwislr:yes | 16:53 |

So I ran it again. this time: 'fuse: failed to access mountpoint /mnt/SamHDD: Transport endpoint is not connected' and still no joy | 16:57 |

| reqqit | I'll try it. | 16:58 |
| DasEi | does | 16:58 |
| mrwislr | DasEi: what worried me was this was an I/O error locating drive and when i did finally found the drive it failed the format so i thought maybe they couldn't be on the same IDE cable | 16:58 |

| fredreichbier | Hi. I have a ZyXEL ZyAIR B-122 WLAN PCMCIA card. I read that ZyAIR B-120 is supported, does that mean that b-122 is supported, too? | 16:59 |
| DasEi | Ohmu_: what says mount now, mounted Hdd ? | 16:59 |
| dr_willis | fredreichbier, would totally depend on the chipset.. so theres no guarentee that it would be. | 17:00 |
| Kr0ntab | ecraven: I have found nothing .... only references to people upgading firefox... so likely this points to an isolated issue of your firefox installation getting messed up some how. You can try purging firefox and xulrunner related packages... and reinstalling. It's a little drastic, as it will remove a few other packages, but they are easiliy reinstalled. You can also try the reinstall function in Synaptic to see if that clears it up. | 17:00 |
| godhead | 67 | 17:01 |
| Ohmu_ | DasEi: No it hasn't appeared. mount returns the same readout as before. | 17:01 |
| fredreichbier | dr_willis: ok, thanks. I'll check the chipset. | 17:01 |

| SlimeyPete | if no graphics then it's probably the server version | 17:09 |
| Naisenu | DasEi: Yes but it doesn't contain a valid partition table. So why can't the installer find it? | 17:09 |

| kunwon1 | reqqit, I'm not familiar with amsn, but if I were you I'd try to fix the problem that crashes the system. If amsn is a gui app, you might be able to get more feedback (in the way of error messages) by running it from a terminal. Just a shot in the dark :) | 17:10 |

| Towny | anyone think I should have any problems installed ubuntu-server on a hp ze4300 laptop? | 17:46 |
| Kr0ntab | sfears: that would be my assumption. yeah... when you insert the disk... look at /var/log/syslog and /var/log/messages | 17:47 |
| Kr0ntab | sfears: it will give you info about read errors... or other useful info... | 17:47 |
| Flannel | Towny: It could be that the server kernel doesn't agree with your hardware. What are you looking to use the laptop for? (why the server version?) | 17:48 |

| Reformer81 | How would I go about downloading certain applications (and dependencies) so I can transfer them to a computer without internet connection? I've looked at AptOnCD, but it doesn't appear to do it. | 17:49 |
| Flannel | Reformer81: aptonCD will indeed do it. | 17:49 |
| Reformer81 | Flannel: From what I've seen with AptonCD, it only does it for SOME of the applications that I have installed on this computer. | 17:50 |
| B|ackPanther | how can i install inconsolata in ubuntu? Tried searching and nothing helpful is coming up. | 17:50 |
| mis1 | blip: sfear: thank you for you help.......... | 17:50 |
| Reformer81 | Flannel: If I want to include a package that isn't currently installed, it doesn't seem to let me. | 17:50 |
| * Kr0ntab needs to look into aptoncd some time. sounds like fun. | 17:51 | |
| Ad0 | my iec958 is always muted on boot in alsa mixer, why does it's settings get reset every boot ? | 17:51 |
| Flannel | Reformer81: It allows you to use whatever packags you have in your cache (the deb files you have, not the packages you have installed). However, you can always download extra packages (even if you don't install them) and then they'll be available. | 17:51 |
| Flannel | Reformer81: apt-get with -d is download only, | 17:51 |
| Reformer81 | Flannel: Okay... thank you. | 17:52 |
| levene | anyone got the info page for the paste command installed? i don't know where to get it. | 17:52 |
| sfears | Kr0ntab: is there something in particular i can grep.. i'm not sure what to do with all the information in that output | 17:52 |
| ninjafury | Google's not helping. If i open an external drive in Thunar as root on an HFSPLUS drive, they work and are editable. If I'm not root, its read only. How do I fix this? | 17:52 |
| sfears | mis1 your welcome | 17:52 |
| sfears | Ad0: iec958 should be muted.. that is used for S/P DIF digital audio cards | 17:53 |
| Kr0ntab | sfears: sorry mate. yeah... just do a tail -f /var/log/syslog and in another terminal... tail -f /var/log/messages | 17:53 |

| Kr0ntab | sfears: so when you load the DVD in the drive... you should see messages that might mean something... | 17:53 |
| Reformer81 | Flannel: So using aptoncd will make sure that I have all the dependencies required to install the package on the host machine, right? | 17:54 |
| Flannel | Reformer81: Yeah, it'll make sure the depends exist on the CD too. | 17:54 |

| Kr0ntab | you don't have to paste in here... | 17:58 |
| ninjafury | delineator: its faster if you use the 64bit version, but some software may only be available as 32bit | 17:58 |

| noodlesgc | alarm you can enable compiz in system->preferences->appearences then visual effects tab. If you want the configure it you need the settings manager | 18:42 |
| sfears | alarm.. compiz comes with a basic set of plugins.. extra plugins will give you additional effects.. emerald does the themes for the window border (maximize minimize etc..) the settings mangaer let's you configure all the installed plugins | 18:42 |

| === Guest52730 is now known as Slade92 | ||
| scampbell | Guest52730: that is because you either do not have the proper video driver or have an unsupported video card. What video card do you have? | 18:55 |
| sfears | tillux1 "sudo lshw -C disk" | 18:56 |

| scampbell | Slade92: I believe you need to install the nvidia driver, let me see if I can't get the exact name for you... | 18:57 |
| === marko_ is now known as marko-_- | ||
| scampbell | Slade92: install nvidia-glx and (optionally but recommend) nvidia-settings | 18:58 |
| Slade92 | scampbell, i think that the video card is not the problem... i instaled and every thing was Ok but today i wanted to make my ubuntu desktop into a Mac Os | 18:58 |
| scampbell | Slade92: BTW, nvidia-settings will show up as separate program in you Applications menu, it allows you to set other options. | 18:58 |
| scampbell | Slade92: to verify you can look in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and see what device driver you are loading, it must be nvidia. | 18:59 |
| dEagLE | hi i'm unable to mount my external hard drive. ..what shud i do.. | 18:59 |
| scampbell | Slade92: grep -i driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf will list all the drivers in the file, mouse, keyboard, video, the name should clue you. | 19:00 |
| dEagLE | hi i'm unable to mount my external hard drive. ..what shud i do.. | 19:00 |
| Slade92 | scampbell, i is nvidia... and sais that the driver i have is in use... | 19:00 |
| mpalatnik | i have a script in if-pre-up.d that works fine if run manually | 19:00 |
| scampbell | Slade92: interesting, does nvidia-settings run for you? | 19:00 |
| mpalatnik | but ubuntu wont run it when i bring the interface up | 19:00 |
| mpalatnik | why? | 19:00 |
| dEagLE | hi i'm unable to mount my external hard drive. ..what shud i do.. | 19:01 |
| Slade92 | scampbell, it does but that is the problem.. | 19:01 |
| MltShift | dEagLE: dEagLE dEagLE dEagLE | 19:01 |
| dEagLE | ii need some assistence | 19:01 |
| MltShift | dEagLE: ask in #linux motherfucker | 19:02 |
| scampbell | mpalatnik: be sure to use full path names in your script, your PATH is probably different during initialization then it is from the cli | 19:02 |
| scampbell | Slade92: I don't follow, nvidia-settings works but that is the problem? | 19:02 |
| mpalatnik | scampbell: dont follow | 19:03 |
| mpalatnik | scampbell: the system runs all files in that directory, why does the path matter | 19:03 |
| MltShift | i have never seen so much join/part spam as in this chan | 19:03 |
| mpalatnik | turn it off in your client MltShift | 19:04 |
| scampbell | mpalatnik: for example, if you use 'ls' you need to state /bin/ls' | 19:04 |
| bullgard4 | Finnish: sudo lshw -class disk | 19:04 |
| chickenfuego2 | lol | 19:04 |
| DawnLight | hey. does anyone know about a bug where my kded doesn't start automatically? | 19:05 |
| scampbell | mpalatnik: that's a bad example because /bin is always in the path but that's the idea, be sure to call out the exact pathname to commands you run in init scripts | 19:05 |
| zume | Hi everyone. I'm using xChatGnome and I'm not seeing a list of usernames on the left. IS that normal? | 19:05 |

| dulak | zume: on the bottom of the channel list on the right there is a user button, shows the number of users, if you hover over it, it will show the users | 19:05 |
| mpalatnik | its not an init script scampbell | 19:05 |

| Daremonai | I want to be able to remote control my downloads on my ubuntu server, how can I do that? - through the web? | 19:05 |
| dulak | zume: on the left even | 19:06 |
| scampbell | mpalatnik: my guess is it runs that script but the script fails, I suggest this is usually because of pathnames, if I'm wrong cool, just stating that's the number one reason for scripts to fail under cron, init, etc when they run fine from a shell | 19:06 |
| zume | Thank you 0dd and dulak! <3 | 19:06 |

| Daremonai | MltShift, I want a web interface, because I can't ssh from my uni to my server. | 19:07 |
| lubosz | what is like tail, but for a whole file? | 19:07 |
| tillux2 | Daremonai: like webmin? | 19:07 |
| DawnLight | tyk: read the docs about this | 19:07 |
| zume | If I may, is xChatGnome the recommended IRC Client? It looks a wee un-themed. Anything prettier? I also had to do a LOT of reading to get on here. The whole /join and such. Must it be that hard? | 19:07 |
| scampbell | mpalatnik: another trick that might be helpfull. Put exec > /tmp/rpt 2>&1 near the begining of your script, when it runs the output and errors will be directed to /tmp/rpt so you can see what happened. hopefully helpful. | 19:07 |
| tillux2 | lubosz: less | 19:07 |
| tyk | can u link me? | 19:07 |
| yme | Suddendly my apache wasn't responding anymore. I ran a ps -ef|grep apache and I found maaany apache2 processes running. Why could that be? | 19:07 |
| tyk | i just found the one to keep only linux | 19:07 |
| MltShift | zume: try irssi :P | 19:08 |
| scampbell | yme: it's normal for many apache2 servers to run | 19:08 |
| jim_p | i installed fluxbox, i decided i dont like it and i removed it. however an entry in gdm still says fluxbox! how do i remove it from there? | 19:08 |
| lubosz | tillux2: thx | 19:08 |
| dEagLE | no i'm using ubuntu u chut <MltShift> | 19:08 |
| tillux2 | zume: well, try pidgin ;) | 19:08 |
| Daremonai | tillux2: perhaps, but i remember webmin being very 'vulnerable' and it gives much more than what i want | 19:08 |
| scampbell | yme: check your /var/log/apache2 directory for logfiles that will give you clues. | 19:08 |
| mpalatnik | scampbell: thanks will try | 19:08 |

| zume | I've been running 8.10 for months now and it's pretty sweet, but I'm still wondering... Why wont it detect my freakin' wifi lol. Not a big problem for me, but still. Maybe a fesh install once it's officially released will work better. | 19:28 |
| LordMetroid | Okay, yes, when I refer to 8.10 I mean final build | 19:29 |

| trigpin | !alsa | prodigel | 19:36 |
| ubottu | prodigel: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 19:36 |

| scientus_ | how do i reinstall synaptic when ubuntu-desktop is dependant on it | 19:40 |
| tag | remove synaptic, and then install ubuntu-desktop again | 19:41 |
| tag | ubuntu-desktop is a meta-package, removing it doesn't actually remove anything | 19:41 |

| ubottu | ubuntu: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 20:07 |
| thiebaude | mongolai:i used aptitude and didn't like it | 20:08 |
| regeya | kakoonia: don't know about the viz but amarok will do it, party playlist and all. | 20:08 |
| x0mega24x | why don't you like aptitude? | 20:08 |
| mongolai | thiebaude: did it mess up your system, or did you just not like the interface? | 20:08 |
| fastkeys38 | MrMist: It's not one I'm familiar with. Perhaps the partition table has been blanked accidently when you installed the new OS? | 20:08 |
| Pici | ubuntu: escribe /j #ubuntu-br | 20:08 |
| fastkeys38 | MrMist: Something like gparted might be able to guess the partition table for you and restore it | 20:08 |
| thiebaude | mongolai:i could not add any packages | 20:09 |
| JakeMon | soundray: x0mega24x: i used my arrow keys to get on top of the svn package and when i clicked "g" i think it was to download and install then it started installing that and a whole bunch of crazy so called dependencies... apt-get didn't put even 2% of the things aptitude did... maybe i used it wrong? idk | 20:09 |
| TJ-42 | I just added a new drive solely to store pictures from my camera and was thinking of just mounting it as /home/myusername/Pictures | 20:09 |

| fastkeys38 | xOmega24x: It's not something dumb like your shift/ctrl/alt key being stuck? | 20:13 |
| zume | Mongolai: Orca is the stuff of nightmares! Its screeching impossible-to-understand voice, it's slow startup, its "Please log out and back in to use" complications. It's just aweful. I have to go through some crazy terminal thing to turn it on, then it takes an hour to turn it back off because it ignores some clicks. Its slow. It kills me inside. | 20:14 |

| mongolai | zume: are you familiar with TTS apps in general? | 20:15 |
| zume | Mongolai, thank you for asking. I absolutly love TTS and in Windows used to use many of them. My favorite was ReadPlease2003. I hope I might be able to emulate this program. | 20:15 |
| x0mega24x | what process handles drag and drop events? | 20:16 |
| fastkeys38 | xOmega24x: If you make a new user account and logon as that, does it revert to normal? | 20:16 |
| x0mega24x | i'll try that and get back to you | 20:16 |
| diskin | x0mega24x, maybe it copies when destination is on another filesystem? | 20:17 |
| mongolai | zume: TTS is one of those things where the proprietary folks seem to have the upper hand. I have experimented with TTS and TTS programming, but on windows 2000 (although recently). Lemme see if I can find some of the tools that I used... | 20:17 |
| MrMist | fastkeys38: hmm... seems like LVM has been used to make the partitions in it. Do you know anything about that ? | 20:17 |
| fastkeys38 | MrMist: Yeah - a bit. It should still have a partition table though when you fdisk -l on it. | 20:17 |
| zume | Mongolai: Thank you so much! I'm fairly comfortable with Ubuntu/Gnome, but I'm not technically oriented at all. So be easy on me. :) | 20:18 |
| pisse | My sound in Firefox doesn't work, eg youtube. I've tried a few tricks but no success.. anyone who can help? Is there a good how-to I've missed? | 20:18 |
| mongolai | zume: I'll try :) the programs might suggest a significant learning curve, though... | 20:18 |
| fastkeys38 | MrMist: Ubuntu should just pickup LVM and put it in /dev/something/somethingelse where the first is the volume group name and the second is the volume name | 20:19 |
| x0mega24x | Yes everything works fine in the other account | 20:19 |
| zume | Mongolai: Anything is possible. I too shall seek out ways to make TTS work. I love TTS, as with audiobooks, I can play in fast forward and really hear many hours of audio in a short amount of time. It's like speed-hearing, lol. | 20:19 |
| Administrateur | hello. i need help to configure my wifi, someone's expert? | 20:19 |
| fastkeys38 | xOmega24x: You're right it being gnome settings then. No idea which one though?! | 20:19 |
| mongolai | zume: how familliar are you with TTS technology? That is -- do you have a basis of understanding of how TTS works? | 20:19 |
| max|- | who have install wifi with RT73 or 28 ? | 20:20 |
| fastkeys38 | xOmega24x: Are you particularly attached to your gnome prefs? You could blow away your .gconf .gconf2 directories | 20:20 |
| zume | Mongolai: No, unfortinuatly, I'm not familiar with the underlying tech. I know there are 3 compartments: the voice, the engine, and the front-end graphics. | 20:20 |
| fastkeys38 | xOmega24x: or at least move them temporarily | 20:20 |
| x0mega24x | would they rebuild? | 20:20 |
| Administrateur | How can i change my name in this channel? | 20:21 |
| fastkeys38 | xOmega24x: If they don't autobuild, there must be a defaults set in /etc/skel as that's the only place they'll get copied from | 20:21 |

| RolfCoptr | Administrateur: "/nick NewName" | 20:21 |
| === Administrateur is now known as XFM | ||
| fastkeys38 | xOmega24x: Worst case is you move them, and they don't rebuild, so you log in as failsafe session and put them back | 20:21 |
| zume | Mongolai: If I remember right, M$ used to call the engine "SAPI". | 20:21 |
| XFM | RolfCoptr: tks | 20:21 |
| XFM | Is there an appropriate channel for wifi configuration? | 20:22 |
| mongolai | zume: that's basically correct. The voice is terribly important. This is the part where the proprietary software companies really have the upper hand. Things like AT&T's "Natural Voices", and even Microsoft's Voices (Like MS Sam!) are where the TTS chain really breaks down in other systems. And yes, MS calls TTS SAPI | 20:22 |

| MrMist | fastkeys38: Hmm... then i don't know | 20:23 |
| fastkeys38 | xOmega24x: I've never tried it. In theory I supose so - but you'll need to fix the permissions up | 20:24 |
| mongolai | zume: there's also the phoneme parser. This is the part that actually breaks down the written text into phonemes, or "sound particles" These phonemes are what the voice engine uses to decide what sounds to play. And this is why the voice modules are *so* omportant... | 20:24 |
| mongolai | zume: they might help.. | 20:24 |
| fastkeys38 | MrMist: Try booting a gparted live cd - see what it thinks the partition table is. If it sees LVM partitions then it could be an ubuntu specific issue | 20:25 |
| XFM | RolfCoptr: I have an ubuntu that is unable to connect to my wifi networks. the network works (windows can access) i think that there are perhap's several drivers installed for same card. Do you know how to uninstall everithinhg and reinstall properly one driver, aircrack for exemple? | 20:25 |
| zume | Mongolai: That is really good information on TTS. I wasn't aware of the PhonemeParser. | 20:25 |
| x0mega24x | nope no good | 20:25 |
| sfears | XFM what kind of wireless card do you have? | 20:25 |

| qah | LjL: Thx | 20:36 |
| x0mega24x | well see yah guys | 20:36 |
| LjL | TJ-42: normally, every time you access a file, the file's "last access time" information is updated on the disk | 20:36 |
| thiebaude | yes, puppy, lets try to get this thing working | 20:36 |
| mongolai | zume: I almost forgot!! For win32 there is PyTTS -- this is what I was using. It is a set of Python modules for windows that uses MS's SAPI to create an easy interface for the TTS API. If you are so inclined, it would probably work in WINE. | 20:36 |
| thiebaude | lets try one hd | 20:36 |
| Puppy | thiebaude - its on this machine, so ill need to drop off to get it on lol | 20:36 |
| LjL | TJ-42: that causes more disk writes than necessary, so the "noatime" option can be used to stop that behavior. but "noatime" fools some backup programs and other things | 20:36 |
| RolfCoptr | XFM: decide for yourself, what appears to be network/dhcp/wifi relevant | 20:36 |
| thiebaude | kewl, puppy | 20:36 |
| Puppy | thiebaude - ill go try it now :D *grabs his screw driver * | 20:36 |

| thiebaude | and i grab my heienken | 20:37 |
| zume | Mongolai: Thats really good news, I shall give it the old college try. :D | 20:37 |
| LjL | TJ-42: so "relatime" is a compromise that avoids writing that information *most* of the time (although i don't remember exactly when it does and when it does not), but enough of the times that those programs need | 20:37 |
| SchneeSchwarz | TJ-42: "man mount", then type "/relatime" | 20:37 |
| mongolai | zume: well, good luck. Perhaps KMouth will be just what you need :) | 20:37 |
| LjL | qah: i think i said "apt-cache search theora" | 20:37 |

| LjL | zume, mongolai: Festival is most definitely the widest used free speech synthesis engine (at least for English, although it supports a few other languages). you can see a list of programs, including graphical front-ends, that use it by typing "apt-cache rdepends festival" | 20:39 |
| fastkeys38 | TJ-42: I'd have thought it would make little difference on a single home PC. On a server with millions of files and hundreds of concurrent accesses it makes a huge difference | 20:39 |

| zume | LjL: Very cool. I will have to research Festival. I typed the command you gave into Terminal, and it brought up some weird text, but I suspect I'll eventually figure it out. :D | 20:42 |
| GleepGlop | mistform: yeah, it gparted should see your hard disks | 20:42 |
| _786soul | Would anyone be able to help me with a small problem? I've got ubuntu 8.04 booting off a SD card, but after typing in username and pass all I get is a blank screen with mouse but nothing to click. Desktop doesn't load at all. What should I do? | 20:42 |
| GleepGlop | strike *it | 20:42 |
| Puppy | thiebaude - didnt work, but i found sometign out | 20:43 |
| mistform | GleepGlop, I just installed gparted onto my drive. does the Ubuntu liveCD have Gparted on it? | 20:43 |
| Puppy | thiebaude - its tryign to read the floppy drive !!!! | 20:43 |
| mistform | i wasn't sure if it would be gparted or another | 20:43 |
| DrX | why would the dmesg file appear to contain garbage and then turn the command prompt into garbage characters after you tail or edit it? | 20:43 |
| thiebaude | hmm, puppy | 20:43 |
| GleepGlop | mistformed: yes, the ubuntu livecd has gparted | 20:43 |
| Puppy | thiebaude - indeed :D | 20:43 |
| mistform | kk then | 20:43 |
| mongolai | _786soul: did you create a username/password | 20:43 |
| Pici | DrX: How are you tailing or editing it? | 20:43 |
| mistform | GleepGlop, thanks for the reassurance :). | 20:43 |
| Puppy | thiebaude - its somethign new to point me in a new direction | 20:43 |
| thiebaude | puppy pm me | 20:43 |
| mistform | i'll be headed out now, Later #ubuntu | 20:43 |
| GleepGlop | mistformed: there is also a gparted livecd that has saved my ass many times | 20:43 |
| DrX | vi /bin/dmesg or tail /bin/dmesg | 20:44 |
| LjL | TJ-42, fastkeys38: even on a home computer, while the performance hit may in most case be almost negligible, it's not completely negligible. that's because, even in normal computer usage, several small files are often read in a row, and these files are often well scattered on the disk, so updating atime will involve a lot of drive head "seeks", which take time. they also move the head more than required, theoretically shortening the drive's lifespan | 20:44 |
| DrX | Pici: or gedit /bin/dmesg | 20:44 |
| _786soul | mongolai: I'm pretty sure I did. I typed ctrl+alt+f2 to bring up CLI and login worked there to get me to the root | 20:44 |

| KevinO | thiebaude, charles , I started firefox for the first time, it asked me to install something, cant remember what it was, but there were two of them and i got the "ugly" version as well.

| Scunizi | khgiuyg: the nvidia driver does support dual screens.. just don't have both hooked up when you install.. pick one.. if it doesn't work on dvi use the vga connected monitor. | 21:20 |
| khgiuyg | Where would I find taht program though | 21:20 |
| charles | it will detect any screens connected to your computer that are turned on | 21:20 |
| charles | khgiuyg, sudo nvidia-settings | 21:20 |
| Scunizi | khgiuyg: do you already have ubuntu installed? | 21:21 |
| charles | the beta for 8.10 supports dual screen even better but i dont suggest you use it untill the stable version is relased | 21:21 |
| hotmonkeyluv | has anyone here used any UML plugins for eclipse? If so, which ones can you recommend? | 21:21 |
| khgiuyg | Yes first all i saw were a bunch fo pixels then i did the updates and what not and now it just says there is no connection | 21:21 |
| khgiuyg | on the DVI side | 21:21 |
| charles | o.0 | 21:22 |
| Scunizi | khgiuyg: ah.. so both are hooked up and only one is working? | 21:22 |

| Skky | ActionParsnip: in the link you gave me they have you editing your fstab file but the type of mount in it is "cifs" - I thought cifs couldn't access windows? | 21:49 |
| DasEi | Stevex:does the installer suggest any drivers or gives it just a blank to type sth in ? | 21:49 |

| Puppy | DasEi - it didnt do anythign different | 22:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Azhi_Dahaka: jow do yuo mean? | 22:28 |
| Azhi_Dahaka | i added the proper lines to natd.conf, i restarted the daemon and i aliased the network interface | 22:29 |
| Azhi_Dahaka | and i just notice that i'm asking on the wrong channel... XD | 22:29 |
| LinuxFan | Fret18 you'll need to download compizconfig-settings-manager and then you'll see the options to set it up in SYstem>Preferences>Advanced Desktop Effect Settings | 22:29 |
| untermensch_ | ActionParsnip: ok i ran that.. | 22:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Azhi_Dahaka: great. what are you trying to achieve? | 22:29 |
| untermensch_ | ActionParsnip: now what? | 22:29 |
| ActionParsnip | untermensch_: sudo shutdown -r now | 22:29 |
| Puppy | ActionParsnip - was i ment so see somethign different by adding lspci ? | 22:29 |
| Fret18 | LinuxFan: I first have to download the 'program', right? | 22:29 |
| untermensch_ | ActionParsnip: -r? out of curiosity(sp) | 22:29 |
| Azhi_Dahaka | static address redirection | 22:29 |
| LinuxFan | no | 22:29 |
| LinuxFan | Fret18 compiz is already installed by default if you have 8.04 | 22:30 |
| untermensch_ | ActionParsnip: back to recovery? | 22:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Puppy: lspci shows you your hardware, you can then websearch to see if the SATA controllers are nice to Ubuntu and if you need to do anything to make them work | 22:30 |
| Fret18 | I think I don't have it. | 22:30 |
| ActionParsnip | untermensch_: no, regular | 22:30 |
| Fret18 | Where can I see the Ubuntu version? | 22:30 |
| untermensch_ | LinuxFan: wow really? I had no idea. | 22:30 |
| Puppy | ActionParsnip - but where can i put the command in lol | 22:30 |
| DasEi | Puppy: there are some more options: noacpi, and see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions | 22:30 |

| LinuxFan | Fret18 search synaptic package manager for Compiz | 22:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Puppy: so you boot up the cd and you cant get a simple prompt? | 22:31 |
| untermensch_ | ActionParsnip: didn't work. | 22:31 |
| Puppy | ActionParsnip - em.. no.... | 22:31 |
| DasEi | Puppy: if all experiments do not work, isn't there a suitable ata-driver suggested by the installer ? | 22:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Puppy: so what happens when you boot the cd? | 22:31 |
| Puppy | only 1 sata and that didnt work | 22:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Puppy: did you check the iso with md5sum? | 22:32 |
| Puppy | ActionParsnip - i go to install it goes through until it gets to the partition stage, and it cant find my drives | 22:32 |
| ActionParsnip | untermensch_: try dropping to root shell and renaming xorg.conf | 22:32 |
| untermensch_ | ActionParsnip: what do you mean? | 22:32 |
| Puppy | ActionParsnip - iso runs great on my other machine | 22:32 |
| pedrobroet | how can i detect the values of joystick buttons? | 22:32 |
| === recon_etc is now known as recon | ||

| coopster | I am trying to copy a /home directory from one machine to another. I'd like to preserve permissions and all (i.e. cp --archive), but the UIDs on one machine do not match the UIDs on another. Is there a tool or utility that will let me do this? | 22:33 |
| ActionParsnip | untermensch_: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf_old | 22:33 |
| Slart | pedrobroet: I think there's a utility in gnome for joysticks.. gnome-jstick or something like that | 22:33 |
| Fret18 | LinuxFan: Can I use "sudo apt-get install compiz compizconfig-settings-manager" in the Terminal? | 22:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Puppy: which cd are you using? | 22:33 |
| bambooforest | coopster, i think rsync it might help you out | 22:33 |
| Puppy | ill pm you the options i get | 22:33 |
| untermensch_ | ActionParsnip: and now what? | 22:33 |
| Puppy | ActionParsnip - ill pm you the options, and i have live and alt cd, curently usign alt | 22:33 |
| ActionParsnip | untermensch_: reboot | 22:34 |
| coopster | bambooforest: i'm familiar with rsync, but are there options to re-map UIDs on the fly? | 22:34 |
| Slart | pedrobroet: hmm.. I didn't find it when I searched in synaptic.. but there are lots of other joystick utils available | 22:34 |
| LinuxFan | Fret18 you can run lsb_release -d -s -c to see what version of ubuntu you have | 22:34 |
| DasEi | Puppy : pm the installers driver options, yes | 22:34 |

| pedrobroet | Slart: thanks, I'll check it | 22:34 |
| bambooforest | coopster, i thought you wanted to stick with the uids you had | 22:35 |
| LinuxFan | Fret18 assuming you dont already have compiz installed yep | 22:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Slart: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=68766 | 22:35 |
| coopster | bambooforest: nono, that's exactly the problem. i want the same usernames to have the same permissions, but username joe on machine A and username joe on machine B have different UIDs | 22:35 |
| Fret18 | Alright, I'll check my version. | 22:35 |
| Fret18 | Thanks LinuxFan. | 22:35 |
| LinuxFan | np | 22:35 |
| untermensch_ | ActionParsnip: nothing. | 22:35 |
| untermensch_ | ActionParsnip: still messed up. | 22:36 |
| ActionParsnip | untermensch_: whats it say when its stopped? | 22:36 |
| Azhi_Dahaka | I'm trying to map an internal ip into an external one | 22:36 |
| DasEi | Puppy : these are the bootoptions, you can give in with F6 | 22:36 |
| untermensch_ | ActionParsnip: `when it's stopped where? | 22:36 |
| Puppy | DasEi - they are the options that are in the bash line | 22:36 |

| Fret18 | LinuxFan: My version is 8.04.1 | 22:37 |
| DasEi | Puppy : BUT when the installer is running, it stops at certain point>the ata drivers... no choices possible there ? | 22:37 |
| Scunizi | Azhi_Dahaka: usually that's done in the router.. tell it to send traffic to a specific internal ip on a specific port | 22:37 |
| Puppy | yeah it stops with a drive list wth like 200 drivers in it | 22:37 |
| Puppy | one of them says sata in it, but it dont work | 22:37 |
| Azhi_Dahaka | nevermind... | 22:37 |
| LinuxFan | you should have it then Fret18 but you'll still need to install compizconfig-settings-manager | 22:37 |
| ActionParsnip | untermensch_: what do you have onscreen when you say its stil bad? are there errors? a picture of the Queen? | 22:38 |
| carpeliam | anybody have any JeOS advice? can't seem to install it from the Server Edition ISO like I've been reading | 22:38 |

Is there a tool or utility that will let me do this? | 22:38 |
| bambooforest | coopster, not sure if cfengine have some options to deal with the uid | 22:38 |

| LinuxFan | I dont either Scunizi :) | 22:40 |
| Puppy | DasEi - but im on wireless | 22:40 |
| bimberi | Mixed432: another option is "unison" | 22:41 |
| Puppy | DasEi - im gonna try this ActionParsnip • then add to the kernel: noacpi dma=off brb | 22:41 |

| ActionParsnip | untermensch_: did you modify the xorg.conf yourself? | 22:42 |

| untermensch_ | ActionParsnip: and no :( i was being lazy | 22:43 |
| Mixed432 | cooper and LinuxFan, thanks! I will try first unison and then rsync | 22:43 |
| untermensch_ | and cp didn't wor. | 22:43 |
| LjL | LightTitan: an .exe, if you mean a Windows executable program file, it a single file - it doesn't contain other files | 22:43 |
| LinuxFan | np good luck Mixed432 | 22:44 |
| LightTitan | LjL: I could have swore that I extracted files from a windows *exe file at one time. | 22:44 |
| LjL | LightTitan: then it was a self-extracting ZIP or RAR archive | 22:44 |
| ActionParsnip | untermensch_: yuo use md5 to check the iso and part of the cd boot is to check the cd. TCP is a very solid protocol but its not flawless and downloads can still have errors | 22:44 |
| justizin | hiya, i've got clients wanting features i plan to provide by upgrading to intrepid ibex, which i've been testing and am quite impressed with. just curious if the RC freeze is on schedule for tomorrow. | 22:45 |
| LjL | LightTitan: you need to know what it actually is first, anyway | 22:45 |
| ActionParsnip | LightTitan: you can use unzip on it | 22:45 |
| LjL | LightTitan: or, of course, you could just run it in WINE | 22:45 |
| ActionParsnip | LightTitan: or cabextract | 22:45 |

| LightTitan | Thanks guys | 22:45 |
| mirak | SchneeSchwarz: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/m/ms-sys/ | 22:45 |
