| lianimator | NEWK: try the forums. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Infamous_Cow | the ubuntu forums | 00:00 |
| lianimator | NEWK: I didn't catch your problem, I just got here | 00:00 |
| Tyrath | zsquareplusc: you should be able to set any /dev files using udev - atleast I was of that pretense | 00:00 |
| JigmeDatse | kasutaja, That's possible. | 00:00 |
| NEWK | Well, I'm trying to set up the visual effects | 00:00 |
| nintendork32 | im wanting to repartion my disk so /home will be its own partition but it seems i have to unmount root (/) that doesnt seem safe | 00:00 |
| tyso1 | ubuntuarmnetbook: the section remove--purge is an invalid operation | 00:00 |
| damian__ | UbuntuARMNetbook: my laptops doesnt detect wireless signal, i just installed ubuntu, ms vista was to slow. | 00:00 |
| NEWK | but it said it can't do it on this system | 00:00 |
| NEWK | I mean | 00:00 |
| NEWK | it didn't say that | 00:00 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - I am not sure if you install the wine driver will fix the issue. The wine driver even if the installation is successful, might only work out for the wine apps mate. | 00:01 |
| NEWK | but it said that it could't do it | 00:01 |
| NEWK | so someone told me to check the drivers | 00:01 |
| NEWK | and it said that there's no proprietary drivers on this system | 00:01 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Tyso: sudo apt-get remove --purge | 00:01 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Tyso: please give good space between the commands | 00:01 |
| NEWK | I just want to know if this PC is incapable of doing the visual effects or if I can do somethign about it | 00:01 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | see if that works | 00:01 |
| zsquareplusc | Tyrath: hm i dont have no framebuffer devices. are you running the desktop edition or what did you do to get them? | 00:01 |
| PriceChild | JigmeDatse: it might be that it just its available elsewhere *searches* | 00:02 |
| nintendork32 | im wanting to repartion my disk so /home will be its own partition but it seems i have to unmount root (/) that doesnt seem safe | 00:02 |
| Tyrath | has no-one never had to reset the /dev/ permissions? I don't understand how no-one has reached this problem. as dev/fb0 is used a lot! | 00:02 |
| JigmeDatse | Thank you kasutaja that looks like what I'm looking for. | 00:02 |
| Tyrath | zsquareplusc: yep. i'm using the desktop edition | 00:02 |
| cali_ | Help. how do i trouble shoot why my wpn111 not working on 8.10 | 00:02 |
| kasutaja | JigmeDatse, apt-cache search whatever | 00:02 |
| Tyrath | zsquareplusc: I installed off the CD | 00:02 |
| zsquareplusc | nintendork32: if you want to repartition the drive you boot from.. use a live cd (such as the ubuntu desktop cd) | 00:02 |
| JigmeDatse | PriceChild, kasutaja answered my question. Thank you everyone. | 00:03 |
| damian__ | how can i get my wireless to work? | 00:03 |
| eumario | damian__: What wireless card do you have? | 00:03 |
| PriceChild | !gimp-gutenprint | JigmeDatse | 00:03 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about gimp-gutenprint | 00:03 |
| nintendork32 | zsquareplusc: i dont have any blank CD's and from my understanding its possible to do it from a partition tool | 00:04 |
| unop | info ... | 00:04 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - I am finding that people are having issues with understanding how to configure the wireless rather than the driver issue. | 00:04 |
| PriceChild | JigmeDatse: bah, they got there first, I was almost there :) | 00:04 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - do you think you know how to set the wireless network settings? | 00:04 |
| lazukars | On Ubuntu Install, what keyboard layout should I choose. The keyboard is a standard keyboard from Dell. | 00:04 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | lazukars - use North American generic mate. | 00:04 |
| JigmeDatse | PriceChild, doesn't matter to me who answers, or sometimes even if I get an *answer* but finding something that will let me figure it out is great. | 00:05 |
| zsquareplusc | nintendork32: ypu probably mean gparted. you can also create USB boot drives if cdroms are a problem ;-) | 00:05 |
| damian__ | eumario: I have a 802.11bga wireless | 00:05 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - eumario is asking you about the make of the card | 00:05 |
| PriceChild | JigmeDatse: meh, but its always nice to accomplish something. | 00:05 |
| icqnumber | is there any way to stop nm-applet from keyring prompting the password (wpa wlan) every time i start my laptop? on intrepid | 00:05 |
| kasutaja | JigmeDatse, PriceChild, thats why gentoo :) | 00:05 |
| JigmeDatse | PriceChild you did. | 00:06 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Tyso: were you able to get rid of the firefox mate? | 00:06 |
| nintendork32 | zsquareplusc yeah i mean GParted shouldnt it be possible to do it from that? | 00:06 |
| PriceChild | JigmeDatse: for future reference, even if you've not got ubuntu, you can search our packages on packages.ubuntu.com/<insert something here> | 00:06 |
| javagamer | Is the latest version of hedgewars in the repository? | 00:06 |
| zsquareplusc | Tyrath: hm i searched again i dont have these devices. did you do something to get them? like loading a module or running mknod? | 00:06 |
| JigmeDatse | PriceChild, yeah, I'm just not sure what to search for. | 00:06 |
| JigmeDatse | Let me tag that. | 00:06 |
| javagamer | How do I apt-get an unstable package? | 00:07 |
| PriceChild | JigmeDatse: i just did 'gimp', then used firefox to search for 'gimp-print' in the page, and found the renaming. | 00:07 |
| PriceChild | !debian | javagamer | 00:07 |
| ubottu | javagamer: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! | 00:07 |
| damian__ | UbuntuARMNetbook: i set up a laptop with wireless before, this one i dont know what the problem is | 00:07 |
| JigmeDatse | Ah, cool. | 00:07 |
| damian__ | eumario: I have a atheros 802.11bga wireless | 00:08 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - Great! so you know the things! Are you using 2.6.24-19-generic? | 00:08 |
| Tyrath | zsquareplusc: apparently you can set the permissions using chmod. I'm going to do that | 00:08 |
| javagamer | Does Ubuntu not have an unstable repository? | 00:08 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - for some strange reasons, the 2.6.24-19-rt works great for me on all the laptops | 00:08 |
| NEWK | so.... | 00:08 |
| otacon967 | Problem. My wireless card is not responding in 8.04. I have followed the instructions in the help. Installed the ndiswrapper GUI front end (forget what its called) and used the driver that my windows vista partition uses for the wireless card. The "Use Windows Driver" window says that the driver is installed, but the wireless still is not functioning. I also went into the terminal and... | 00:08 |
| otacon967 | ...checked that ndiswrapper had the driver installed and had done the modprobe. I'm out of ideas. My wireless card is a Broadcom BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 02). | 00:08 |
| kasutaja | javagamer, the next version is the unstable rep | 00:08 |
| lazukars | Installing Ubuntu -- For partitioning, which option should you choose. Guided Resize or Guide use entire disk. | 00:09 |
| NEWK | how can I get my visual effects to work? How can I find out whether they will work or not on my PC? | 00:09 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | lazukars - guided resize | 00:09 |
| zsquareplusc | Tyrath: yey you can. but this is probably lost when rebooting (as /dev/ isnt anymore a simple folder but a dynamically generated file system) | 00:09 |
| javagamer | katsutaja:? The next version of Ubuntu? | 00:09 |
| kasutaja | yes | 00:09 |
| javagamer | ah | 00:09 |
| cali_ | Wireless usb not working. Help. How do I trouble shoot why my wpn111 not working on 8.10. And windows wireless drivers not showing under preferences or administration | 00:09 |
| lazukars | UbuntuARMNetbook: is there a reason for that? | 00:09 |
| kasutaja | javagamer, whatever intrepid+1 becomes | 00:09 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | lazukars: I am assuming that you would want to save the windows partition existing in your pc ;) | 00:10 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Lazukars: if not - use the entire disk option. ... whole disk will be used :) | 00:10 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian: Try loading this package - http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/base/linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-19-rt | 00:10 |
| lazukars | Thanks! | 00:10 |
| lazukars | I am going to run a Ubuntu only machine. | 00:10 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - tell me if that works .. Most of your issues will be gone. After the install, while booting you will be presented with the option of kernel-version-rt | 00:11 |
| otacon967 | kasutaja, I think I heard from somewhere that it's going to be Jaunty Jackaloupe | 00:11 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - boot the -rt version. This might be the shortest way out of all your pains | 00:11 |
| nintendork32 | zsquareplusc yeah i mean GParted shouldnt it be possible to do it from that? | 00:11 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Lazukars - go ahead mate. free your pc from microsoft :) | 00:11 |
| PeskyJ | sometimes, a window goes all white and the app doesn't think it needs to redraw itself, is there a way to get gnome to tell the app to redraw itself? | 00:11 |
| kasutaja | otacon967, cool | 00:11 |
| damian__ | UbuntuARMNetbook: 2.6.24-21 | 00:11 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - this will take time. But lets see if that works. | 00:11 |
| ari_stress | PeskyJ i think it's a sign of hang | 00:11 |
| paul678 | rdw200169_: are your still here? | 00:11 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - 2.6.24-21-generic or 2.6.24-21-rt? | 00:11 |
| kasutaja | PeskyJ, minimize? | 00:12 |
| damian__ | UbuntuARMNetbook: generic | 00:12 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - there is a difference between the both | 00:12 |
| hacked_kernel | I have 3 USB ports, one of them is USB 2, how can I know which one if them is the version 2 ? | 00:12 |
| zsquareplusc | nintendork32: i dont know. i wouldn't do it. but if your brave and have your data backed up, try it. you find gparted in system->admin->patitions | 00:12 |
| kasutaja | PeskyJ, change size? | 00:12 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - there you are. Kindly get the -rt one :) | 00:12 |
| PeskyJ | kasutaja: yeah, resize normally works, this is a fullscreen window though | 00:12 |
| damian__ | UbuntuARMNetbook: thanks be back in a bit | 00:12 |
| nintendork32 | zsquareplusc im just worried about what will happen if i unmount it | 00:12 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - I shall be waiting for you to get some sleep once you tell me the result :) | 00:13 |
| paul678 | can someome kick my nick paul68 thanks | 00:13 |
| === poon is now known as l3r1k | ||
| zsquareplusc | nintendork32: you can not unmount / anymway :-) | 00:13 |
| SiDi | Hey people | 00:13 |
| DocUSN-USMC | anyone know the command for updating OOo | 00:13 |
| mortal1 | does anyone here know if ubuntu now supports exsisting encrypted partitions out of the box? | 00:13 |
| nintendork32 | zsquareplus what if i boot into the ubuntu live cd and use gparted from there? | 00:13 |
| PeskyJ | kasutaja: ahh, alt+space minimise and reopen seemed to do it. | 00:14 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | mortal1 - yes. it is supported out of box | 00:14 |
| SiDi | DocUSN-USMC, there is a launchpad repository to add to your sources.list then it's automated (you might have to manually reinstall your dictionnary too) | 00:14 |
| nintendork32 | would that work zsquareplus? | 00:14 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | mortal1 - you will need to use configuration commands | 00:14 |
| mortal1 | I know before, you basically had to let it have it's way with the partition setup in order to use encrypted partitions | 00:14 |
| zsquareplusc | nintendork32: that would be a good way. (still make backups :-) | 00:14 |
| DocUSN-USMC | SiDi what is it? | 00:14 |
| SiDi | DocUSN-USMC, deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main and same for the deb-src | 00:14 |
| nintendork32 | zsquareplusc backups would be impossible for me xD | 00:14 |
| nintendork32 | well cya | 00:14 |
| rOoNy911 | How much usage is it to update to 8.10 ubuntu? | 00:14 |
| Tyrath | zsquareplusc: well chmod did enable me to view it, but if what you say is true for reboot, how can i reset the permissions? | 00:14 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | mortal1 - use: 1) sudo apt-get install ecryptfs-utils | 00:14 |
| DocUSN-USMC | i have the new distro i just need to do the auto update cause it was a pain to go from old to new | 00:14 |
| zsquareplusc | mortal1: yes, with the alternate-cd you can select to instal on encrypted partitions | 00:14 |
| SiDi | Does anyone know if Ubuntu stickers are still available (esp. for europe/france :p) ? | 00:15 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | mortal1 - 2) ecryptfs-setup-private | 00:15 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Mortal1 - you will be done | 00:15 |
| kasutaja | rOoNy911, pretty much :) | 00:15 |
| esbatium | hi, i dont have bash but i have it in /bin/bash, can anyone help me? | 00:15 |
| irpapabear | hello all | 00:15 |
| devslashnull | whats the easiest way to share a folder in ubuntu so i can access it from my macbook ? | 00:15 |
| mortal1 | interesting | 00:15 |
| SiDi | DocUSN-USMC, you need to add "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main" and "deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main" to the file : /etc/apt/sources.list to get OOo 3 | 00:15 |
| DaveDixonII | Can someone help me? | 00:15 |
| SiDi | DocUSN-USMC, then it'll pop-up in automatic updates | 00:15 |
| rOoNy911 | kasutaja: how many MB is it? | 00:15 |
| jrib | DaveDixonII: only if you ask a question | 00:15 |
| DaveDixonII | http://pastebin.com/d6dbb6ede | 00:15 |
| kasutaja | esbatium, /bin not in path? | 00:16 |
| jrib | devslashnull: right click -> sharing options | 00:16 |
| devslashnull | jrib where | 00:16 |
| esbatium | kasutaja: yes it is | 00:16 |
| jrib | devslashnull: on the folder | 00:16 |
| zsquareplusc | Tyrath: well if you knew who crates the devices you could tweak that. as a workaround you could put the chmods in /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh (there is already a file like that you'd edit) | 00:16 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - try the -rt option. I will catch you later. Dont break your head with it if it doesnt work. Try tomorrow with a fresh mind and you might the solution :) | 00:16 |
| DaveDixonII | jrib: I have no clue what i am supposed to do on this message: http://pastebin.com/d6dbb6ede | 00:16 |
| UbuntuARMNetbook | Damian - And I shall catch you tomorrow. Cant control my sleep now :) :P lol | 00:16 |
| devslashnull | um ok | 00:16 |
| kasutaja | rOoNy911, most likely half a Gib | 00:16 |
| SiDi | rOoNy911, not much afaik. If you're very limited you might find an exact answer looking for the alternate CD or by asking EEEPC owners on the forums | 00:16 |
| * UbuntuARMNetbook Good Night and have a nice time here guys | 00:16 | |
| rOoNy911 | kasutaja: o_O Damnit | 00:17 |
| Anacranom | otacon967, do you have both the .inf and the .sys files for the card? | 00:17 |
| TJ-42 | ubuntu intrepid is using a later version of a software program than ubuntu hardy, which I am currently using. I don't want to upgrade yet, and so I was thinking of manually installing the newer version. *But*, if I do this, will I screw up the upgrade to 8.10? | 00:17 |
| jrib | DaveDixonII: -ENOCONTEXT | 00:17 |
| Tyrath | zsquareplusc: apparently /udev/rules.d/ handles dev permissions | 00:17 |
| nibsa1242b | Firefox issue... when I print pages with graphics, only some of the graphics end up on my printout (example, mapquest has small icons for each turn, only some of the icons show up) | 00:17 |
| Stargazer | How can i change what shows up in the terminal ? @PR-DE-UK-JP-CA:~$ | 00:17 |
| jrib | Stargazer: google "custom bash prompt" | 00:17 |
| dr_willis | Stargazer, if you mean the bash prompt? theres howtos on it. :) | 00:17 |
| esbatium | can anyone help me? | 00:17 |
| DaveDixonII | jrib: im afraid i dont understand. | 00:17 |
| DocUSN-USMC | oh ok SiDi i get it, and add them as third party yes | 00:18 |
| kasutaja | esbatium, no bash means you cannot run it typing bash or it is not default shell? | 00:18 |
| SiDi | Stargazer, the file you need to edit is ".bashrc" located in your home. No idea about the how though. | 00:18 |
| Tyrath | zsquareplusc: but when I looked in that folder I couldn't see anything that said partitions partitions :/ | 00:18 |
| jrib | DocUSN-USMC: you need to give more context | 00:18 |
| otacon967 | Anacranoun, yes. I have the .sys and the .inf files straight from my vista partition driver store | 00:18 |
| SiDi | DocUSN-USMC, yes, but note it might warn you about the origin of the files when you make an update | 00:18 |
| esbatium | kasutaja: is not the default shell | 00:18 |
| DocUSN-USMC | yeah i get that | 00:18 |
| kasutaja | rOoNy911, but as someone said, it depens on your installed packages | 00:18 |
| SiDi | DocUSN-USMC, as long as your sources only contain stuff from ubuntu.com and launchpad.net there is nothing to worry about, though | 00:18 |
| esbatium | kasutaja: my prompt is only "$" | 00:18 |
| jrib | DaveDixonII: you need to give more context | 00:18 |
| dr_willis | willis@black:~/Desktop(0 Mb)$ | 00:19 |
| Anacranom | otacon967, can you copy them to your /home/username directory? | 00:19 |
| Update_Manager | Hey, I got backports repo enabled, and the kernel is being held back. I got 2.6.27.7, and it's "proposing" i install the newest version. I am fully up to date besides that. It's okay to install those then, right? | 00:19 |
| DaveDixonII | jRib: Im trying to install InspIRCd 1.1.21 | 00:19 |
| rOoNy911 | kasutaja: Installed packages? I have 8.04 right now | 00:19 |
| esbatium | kasutaja: $ /bin/bash | 00:19 |
| esbatium | $ | 00:19 |
| keystr0k | is there an IM client that can make use of my webcam? Pidgin plugin maybe? | 00:19 |
| devslashnull | jrib i shared the folder but i dont see it shared on my mac | 00:19 |
| DocUSN-USMC | yeah SiDi i used to have compiz fusion on it, but that takes to much resources it looks cool but blah | 00:19 |
| Melik | i just cleaned my mouse, holy shit it was sooooo dusty inside | 00:19 |
| jrib | DaveDixonII: install it from the repositories using APT | 00:19 |
| nibsa1242b | Update_Manager: what version of Ubuntu are you running? | 00:19 |
| SiDi | keystr0k, AMSN but i find their interface ugly (in terms of ergonomy/graphical integration) | 00:20 |
| Update_Manager | keystr0k, not yet... I *think* Epiphany will soon. Sadly! (BTW is it MSN? If so I THINK aMSN does it) | 00:20 |
| DaveDixonII | jrib: I have no clue what you just said dude. :( Sorry | 00:20 |
| Update_Manager | nibsa1242b, It's Intrepid | 00:20 |
| jrib | DaveDixonII: you don't know what APT or Synaptic are? | 00:20 |
| kasutaja | esbatium, chsh does the change | 00:20 |
| SiDi | DocUSN-USMC, it's sexy and on my home PC it's just like no difference. Just a bit slow when it has to load the 5 wallpapers (each of them being about 2MB :p) | 00:20 |
| Peddy | I want to make a rather complex batch processing script, can anyone help me with it? | 00:20 |
| keystr0k | yeah. I cannot believe there isn't a Pidgin plugin for video chat. | 00:20 |
| DaveDixonII | jrib: If i install InspIRCd threw Synatic, i get an error saying a file is missing.............. :/ | 00:20 |
| jrib | devslashnull: connect to your ubuntu in finder (connect to server or something similar) | 00:20 |
| keystr0k | gmail just added video chat within gmail | 00:21 |
| SiDi | keystr0k, there might, i didn't really look at it | 00:21 |
| marc__ | i was trying to install LAMP for testing purposes on Ibex. tasksel froze on me, and now when i try to install something i get an error saying failed, run dpkg --configure -a. When i do that i get an error about dependtry <= 4 failed aborted. I can no longer install anything. | 00:21 |
| SiDi | keystr0k, if you want webcam with your msn friends, amsn is the one with best MSN protocol support | 00:21 |
| DocUSN-USMC | lol SiDi but on a laptop its resource using | 00:21 |
| jrib | DaveDixonII: tell us *that* error | 00:21 |
| nibsa1242b | Update_Manager: I would manually update to the most recent kernel package, I think its 2.6.27-7-generic. When I installed I still had a previous version and it screwed some stuff up | 00:21 |
| SiDi | DocUSN-USMC, on my laptop i'll use either awesome or lxde :D | 00:21 |
| kasutaja | rOoNy911, the installed packages is like many program you have installed, it can be either full desktop with hundres of progs or barebone server with no UI at all | 00:21 |
| esbatium | kasutaja: i type chsh, now i need to logout and login? | 00:21 |
| otacon967 | Anacranoun, yes. I can. Does the driver have to be on the ubu partition to use it? | 00:21 |
| SiDi | DocUSN-USMC, no gnome/kde for better autonomy :P | 00:21 |
| kasutaja | esbatium, don't know | 00:21 |
| nibsa1242b | keystr0k: amsn does work alright... I've used it between an XP & Ubuntu machine before and it went smoothly | 00:22 |
| DocUSN-USMC | SiDi gnome has its purpose in life | 00:22 |
| Update_Manager | Ooooh. Maybe I'll turn off "proposed updates" so that I don't end up messing up Ubuntu. Thank you! :) | 00:22 |
| keystr0k | mmkay | 00:22 |
| Anacranom | otacon967, is easier to do ndiswrapper that way | 00:22 |

| kasutaja | this takes a lot | 00:27 |

| devslashnull | jrib any ideas | 00:27 |

| YmS | SiDi are you realy really sure? | 00:39 |
| SiDi | YmS, yes. | 00:39 |
| dr_willis | Tyrath, i notifed the other day - i had to run mplayer as root to get it to play videos on fb0. I dont know of the perment fix.. | 00:39 |
| DocUSN-USMC | SiDi you dont operate in Root:P | 00:39 |
| SiDi | FireballFlame, see about configuring gdm's screen resolution. | 00:39 |
| dr_willis | Tyrath, a nasty work around.. i guess ya chould chmod them in rc.local :() | 00:39 |

| DocUSN-USMC | oh ok | 00:42 |
| Sinani201 | Does anyone know why Frets on Fire isn't working on my computer? | 00:42 |
| csilk | Sinani201, not unless you provide more info | 00:43 |
| Sinani201 | Well | 00:43 |
| Led-Hed_ | Sinani201: why would we know why a piece of software isnt working on your computer? | 00:43 |
| tripitakit | Sinani201: pls do not repeat yourself so often | 00:43 |
| DocUSN-USMC | well SiDi luckily also im using an IP Mirror | 00:43 |
| dynavox | tripitakit, which package should i install to get Qt? | 00:43 |
| Sinani201 | I use normal Ubuntu | 00:43 |
| zsquareplusc | Tyrath: each of the numers stands for user, group and world permissions. each digit is an octal number (0..7) that represents 3 bits (rwx). you can also use a=rw instead of 666 for example | 00:43 |
| devslashnull | 7.4 | 00:43 |
| Led-Hed_ | Sinani201: good for U | 00:43 |
| jrib | devslashnull: you need to upgrade. That isn;t supported anymore | 00:43 |
| Sinani201 | If I run the game, the screen goes black for a split-second, then exits | 00:43 |
| bre4kbeat | does ubuntu studio come with any worth wild audio app's? | 00:43 |
| donald | Is normal ubuntu version 7.04, 8.10 what | 00:44 |
| csilk | Sinani201, I'd google that | 00:44 |
| tripitakit | dynavox: u'r looking for a DVD burning app, i suggestd k3b, that is for kde so it usses Qt libs, | 00:44 |
| DocUSN-USMC | donald normal ubuntu? | 00:44 |
| thiebaude | Sinani201: have much ram do you have? | 00:44 |
| jrib | donald: what? | 00:44 |
| Tyrath | zsquareplusc: ah k | 00:44 |
| Led-Hed_ | Sinani201: why dont you give us a few more details, so that we can understand the problem. We arent mind readers | 00:44 |
| SiDi | dynavox, you can try "apt-cache search qt" to find the good one. or even "aptitude search qt" that will show only packages with "qt" in the name. seek for libqt4 or something similar. | 00:44 |
| JonathanEllis | Further to my previous post about volume labels, there is a helpful article here http://wikis.sun.com/display/BigAdmin/Using+Disk+Labels+on+Linux+File+Systems | 00:44 |
| Sinani201 | Well, it worked before | 00:44 |
| devslashnull | jrib i do not want to upgrade | 00:44 |

| Led-Hed_ | Sinani201: before what? | 00:44 |
| jrib | devslashnull: 7.04 is no longer supported | 00:44 |
| tripitakit | dynavox: if u apt-get install k3b the qt libs dependencies will be added | 00:44 |
| donald | Someone said they used normal ubuntu. I was just curious what that means. | 00:44 |
| devslashnull | jrib its 7.1 | 00:44 |
| JonathanEllis | !ubuntustudio > bre4kbeat | 00:45 |
| Sinani201 | Well, it worked fine until I changed the settings with the screen resolution. But I've tried running the game in every resolution, and it still wont work | 00:45 |

| Led-Hed_ | when I boot from the 8.10 LiveCD there is no /etc/asound.conf where else might I find those settings? ~/.asoundrc doesn't exist either | 00:45 |
| phirestalker | is there a different channel if I want to ask questions about compiling a program? | 00:46 |
| dynavox | tripitakit, which gtk app would you recommend? SiDi, thanks for your info. | 00:46 |
| JonathanEllis | bre4kbeat: Yes Ubuntu studio has a lot of good audio apps. I have been using it on my laptop for a few weeks now and I think it's really good | 00:46 |
| Sinani201 | Ummm... | 00:46 |

| Led-Hed_ | phirestalker: you can try the #linux channel | 00:46 |
| cali_ | Wireless usb not working. Help. How do I trouble shoot why my wpn111 not working on 8.10. on version 2.24.1 | 00:46 |
| tripitakit | dynavox: if Brasero isnt owrking you can try gnomebaker | 00:47 |
| bre4kbeat | An application is preventing the volume 'HL2_1' from being unmounted. | 00:47 |
| donald | cali: Have you looked at the compatibility list for your hardward? | 00:47 |

| tripitakit | damian__: it means in repositories | 00:49 |
| thiebaude | damian__: what are you trying to install? | 00:49 |
| Sinani201 | Umm | 00:49 |
| donald | Do you have Samba configured? | 00:49 |
| Sinani201 | Does anyone know why my Frets on Fire wont run? | 00:49 |
| Sinani201 | Here's some info: | 00:49 |
| Sinani201 | When I run it, the screen flickers black for a split second, then it closes. | 00:49 |
| Sinani201 | It has worked before, but when I changed the screen resolution, it stopped working. I have tried running it in every screen resolution, but none have worked so far. | 00:49 |
| damian__ | ndiswrapper | 00:49 |
| FloodBot2 | Sinani201: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:49 |
| Sinani201 | Running it in the terminal gives me the same result, but returns this error: | 00:49 |

| brianherman | hi | 00:49 |
| rohm | I just installed Samba, but cant find it | 00:49 |
| thiebaude | damian__: it should be in synaptic | 00:50 |
| lianimator | how can I get circular scrolling for synaptics? | 00:50 |

| bullgard4 | What is the name of the list of the installed program packages on my Ubuntu computer? | 00:50 |
| Sinani201 | brianherman: I think it's scrolling sideways with the mouse | 00:50 |

| zsquareplusc | bullgard4: synaptics? or "dpkg -l" | 00:51 |
| brianherman | tripitakit: u beat me :-( | 00:51 |

| danbhfive | bullgard4: dpkg --get-selections something like that. see !clone if that doesnt work | 00:51 |

| bre4kbeat | how can i unmount or eject my cd drive when i get an error on an install? | 00:51 |
| devslashnull | im not sharing with windows. | 00:52 |
| bre4kbeat | ive tried sudo unmount /media/cdrom0 | 00:52 |
| donald | rohm: Do you have a local network and any Windows shares on that network? | 00:52 |
| jrib | devslashnull: it doesn't matter | 00:52 |
| bre4kbeat | sudo umount -f /media/cdrom0 | 00:52 |
| pymike | huzzah it worked. ubuntu ftw | 00:52 |
| bre4kbeat | nothing works | 00:52 |
| dr_willis | bre4kbeat, you mean with WINE game Installs? | 00:52 |
| zsquareplusc | johannes_: maybe you need -p1. check the path that are in the patch and if your files can be found with them (the -p settings stripps off the path from the beginning) | 00:52 |
| tripitakit | brianherman: anyway it's better use gksu for x applications rather than sudo | 00:52 |
| bre4kbeat | yea | 00:52 |
| donald | rohm: If you have a local network, do you see it when you select Places | Network? | 00:52 |
| lianimator | what does set-int-prop for xinput do? does the config stick or reverts after X restarts? | 00:52 |
| dr_willis | bre4kbeat, then ya should say so.. :) in the past ive copied ALL the data files from the game cd's to a single directory and ran the game insatller from that directory.. no need to swap cds at all then | 00:53 |
| ogre | okay guys. I have a ipw3945 wireless card and its not working. iwconfig sees the device. any suggestions on what it could be? | 00:53 |

| bre4kbeat | good idea | 00:53 |

| binarymutant | tripitakit, why is it better to use gksu? I've read about it but never really go it | 00:53 |
| asenine | Hey guys, I have downloaded nvidia-glx-new using apt-get, now how do i set it up? | 00:54 |
| jrib | devslashnull: in particular: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/internet/C/networking-shares.html | 00:54 |
| dr_willis | bre4kbeat, anotehr method is to run the installer from a terminal, but not from the 'cdrom' driectory.. ie: from your home dir.. wine /media/cdrom/whatever.exe that sometimes works | 00:54 |
| devslashnull | jrib do i need to manually run samba after choosing share folder in ubuntu | 00:54 |

| tripitakit | dr_willis: ty, wa devede := | 00:55 |
| zsquareplusc | binarydigit: because with sudo, the environment is still set for the current user. so if the application you run writes files, these belong to root but are in your folder. that often so issue until you do that with a file that is required to login. then you might run into problems... | 00:55 |
| obvictor | does anyone know how to get a webcam to work with the live video effect on Cinelerra? | 00:55 |
| devslashnull | jrib ok thanks i fixed it. i had to do smbpasswd in terminal | 00:55 |
| dr_willis | I like DeVeDe.. it just has a few quirks i dont like... | 00:55 |
| zsquareplusc | s/so/no | 00:56 |
| johannes_ | zsquarepluc maybe its a problem, because it says 8.04 and im using 8.10? | 00:56 |
| tripitakit | dr_willis: it is really slowww or I dont remember well ? | 00:56 |
| zsquareplusc | dr_willis: lice cacualting file sizes wrong by a factor of 2? ;-) | 00:56 |
| dynavox | dr_willis, as long as it works to make a DVD for my parents to use, i like it. Brasero wouldn't | 00:56 |
| dr_willis | tripitakit, its using mencoder/ffmpeg as the main work.. so i dont see why it would be any slower then other apps... | 00:56 |
| tripitakit | dynavox: brasero is not intende for that use | 00:56 |
| binarymutant | zsquareplusc, it's in your ~/ but in a distro like ubuntu why have it in /root? | 00:57 |
| asenine | Hey guys, does apt-get install actually install the app as well as download it? If so, I am utterly confused by nvidia-glx-new | 00:57 |
| tripitakit | dr_willis: so it was just a bad reminding | 00:57 |
| thiebaude | asenine: downlaods and then installs | 00:57 |
| dr_willis | dynavox, devede is designed for that task ie: converting videos .. brasero is designed toburn data disks.. : You are thinking everything should be like nero and does EVERYTHING.. :) | 00:57 |
| tripitakit | dr_willis: ty for the explanations | 00:57 |
| dynavox | tripitakit, it calims to be. it allows DVD projects where you add files and then supposedly burn a DVD, no? | 00:58 |
| marcosroriz | Hi I'm currently running the linux 2.6.22.8-generic kernel in Ubuntu Intrepid and does anyone knows if there is a way to display both the verbose and the usplash in the booting?

| bullgard4 | zsquareplusc: Synaptics is unrelated to the question which I have put. | 00:58 |
| paul678 | rdw200169_: are you still alive my friend? | 00:58 |
| asenine | thiebaude: I thought so, but shouldn't there be an nVidia settings panel then? Also, I can't get my res to go up beyond 800x600 for the life of me | 00:58 |
| dr_willis | I supposed i could do some test to see if nero does it faster then devede.. but theres so many options to the video-reencoding.. its hard to justify the effort. :) | 00:58 |
| tripitakit | dynavox: a DVD is just an optical support | 00:58 |
| kri | hi i noticed when i installed ubuntu 8.10 the different installation guide. So i missed to install with fully encryption. If im not wrong the full encryption is still avaible right? | 00:58 |
| bullgard4 | danbh | 00:58 |
| dynavox | dr_willis, i misunderstood Brasero's terminology, then. | 00:58 |
| === timburke|desktop is now known as timburke | ||
| dr_willis | Devede lets you take various video files and create a playable dvd with dvd menus. Ive not noticed brasero having that feature.. but i do tend touse k3b. | 00:59 |
| tripitakit | dynavox: if u want a tv playable dvd with a movie on it it's a different job i guess (but i can be wrong) | 00:59 |
| dynavox | thanks tripitakit, i realize it may be for filesystem-based burns. | 00:59 |
| dr_willis | making the 'dvd'is the easy part.. converting the videos to the proper format is the hard part.. :) | 00:59 |
| thiebaude | asenine: im not sure | 00:59 |
| dr_willis | generating a decent dvd menu - is the annoying part. ;P | 00:59 |
| dynavox | dr_willis, perhaps that's the problem | 00:59 |

| johannes_ | zsquarepluc ah ok I need to change the paths got it | 01:00 |
| dynavox | dr_willis, Brasero seemd to be hinting that it could, just showing thumbnails of the included video files | 01:00 |
| tripitakit | marcosroriz: removing only quiet should give a usplash verbose boot | 01:01 |
| dr_willis | or wasit the gnome file manager showing the thumbnails.. | 01:01 |
| thiebaude | asenine: do you mean nvidia-settings? | 01:01 |
| tripitakit | marcosroriz: the intrepid kernel you're using sounds old to me | 01:02 |
| JonathanEllis | Hi. I am editing my grub menu. I use volume labels to identify my partitions. Can I use groot=LABEL=<label> rather than groot=(hdx,y)? | 01:03 |
| tripitakit | marcosroriz: how did you get that kernel in intrepid? | 01:03 |
| marcosroriz | tripitakit, update :D | 01:03 |
| obvictor | does anyone know how to get a webcam to work with the live video effect on Cinelerra? | 01:03 |
| marcosroriz | I wanted something like that...http://img232.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ubuntucu4.png | 01:03 |
| dr_willis | dynavox, brassero does seem to say it can do that.. nifty.. must be new. | 01:04 |
| tripitakit | marcosroriz: oh i see :) | 01:04 |
| marcosroriz | tripitakit, I remove the quiet but It only shows the verbose | 01:04 |
| tripitakit | marcosroriz: not any usplah? | 01:04 |
| asenine | thiebaude: yes, is that a separate pkg | 01:04 |
| thiebaude | Dr_willis:what do i search for in synaptic if i want the latest kernel, im using 8.04 | 01:04 |
| asenine | thiebaude: Downloading nvidia-settings, thanks | 01:05 |
| thiebaude | asenine: ok | 01:05 |
| dynavox | dr_willis, yeah, but after creating a project and clicking Burn, the next dialog has a grayed burn button and it won't go past that no matter what changes are made to the attributes. | 01:05 |
| dr_willis | thiebaude, if you update/upgrade it should get it all. | 01:05 |
| tripitakit | marcosroriz: i did it, removin quiet, and I have a verbose usplash in Intrepid (and Jaunty too) | 01:05 |
| dr_willis | dynavox, bummer :) | 01:05 |
| thiebaude | dr | 01:05 |
| dynavox | dr_wilis, tell me about it! ;) | 01:05 |
| dr_willis | dynavox, nero has everyone trained that a 'burning app' also needs to convet and do all this other work. :P | 01:05 |
| raboof | hmm. linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-19-rt contained fglrx, linux-restricted-modules-2.6.27-3-rt doesn't. | 01:05 |

| dr_willis | shaya, for 32bit onmy laptop with 4gb.. i lose like 100mb of ram.. | 01:08 |
| shaya | edr_willis: in this case, it's a 780G motherboard | 01:08 |
| raboof | binarymutant: something related to my radeon video card | 01:08 |
| shaya | dr_willis: due to video card? | 01:09 |
| binarymutant | raboof, http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=fglrx&searchon=names&suite=intrepid§ion=all | 01:09 |
| freddy_engels | ville__: It depends on the computers and network you're using | 01:09 |
| shaya | in this case, the video card's ram is out of memory | 01:09 |
| dr_willis | shaya, the exact amoung depends on video card and other hardware | 01:09 |
| shaya | due to onboard | 01:09 |
| johannes_ | what can this mean: http://pastebin.com/m3f4a04d6 ? | 01:09 |
| shaya | so I lose 256mb | 01:09 |
| high-freq | anyone know how to fix this problem? Could not load the Host USB Proxy Service (VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND). The service might be not installed on the host computer. | 01:09 |
| shaya | so its really 4GB-256 | 01:09 |
| tripitakit | marcosroriz: when you say verbose you mean a text verbose boot, am I right? | 01:09 |
| marcosroriz | tripitakit, yep | 01:09 |
| dr_willis | shaya, that would also take away from it all.. but even with a serpate video card.. you still would not get ALL of the 4gb | 01:09 |
| high-freq | i have already edited the /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh and the udev rules | 01:09 |
| shaya | leaning towards 32bit | 01:09 |
| paul678 | can someone help me out with the following problem I have this setup isp dlink router 192.168.0.1 eth1 192.168.0.10 server eth1 192.168.1.22 linksys ap. I can ping from my laptop which is attached to my dlink towards eth1 but not able to go futher. I cannot ping from my server my laptop which has ip 192.168.0.1 the server is not able to access the internet either what can I do to solve this | 01:09 |
| ville__ | freddy_engels: Well This laptop has only an 11mb wireless card and the other computer is wired with 100mb | 01:10 |
| shaya | dr_willis: I meant with separate video card its memory is mapped in | 01:10 |
| tripitakit | marcosroriz: so the issue is where the usplash is gone? | 01:10 |
| dr_willis | shaya, so do whatever ya want. with 4gb of ram - a few mb iseng going to matter.. | 01:10 |
| shaya | so if you have a 512MB card, that has to be mapped | 01:10 |
| phirestalker | ok now that I installed the new libtool 2.2.4 I can't compile some programs, what are some things I can do to get them working | 01:10 |
| shaya | which is part of the 4GB | 01:10 |

| asenine | Hey guys, I have just installed nvidia-settings, which then proceeded to request nvidia-xconfig, which I noticed uninstalled my nvidia-glx-new, but anyway... basically it says that there is a validation error and that it cannot continue due to the absence of driver line in 'configured video device'. I have always sucked at editing my xorg, do I just need to add a line below in the same... | 01:11 |

| xim_ | does ubuntu have an equivalent command to netstat in windows that lists all current tcpip connections? | 01:13 |
| shaya | dr_willis: the main problem w/ 64bit as I understand it is "plugins" | 01:13 |
| shaya | though it also uses more memory due to 64bit pointers | 01:13 |
| marcosroriz | tripitakit, nope | 01:13 |
| tripitakit | xim_: netstat | 01:13 |
| nxmehta | running ubuntu server and just installed ivman to automount cds,usb keys, etc. nothing happens when i insert a cd. am i missing something? | 01:13 |

| pino | Hello. I have a problem with my firefox on my ASUS EEE 900. The CPU Load is very high and is not possible to close ff complete. Only with killall. What can I do? | 01:31 |
| tripitakit | UBUSAE: you wiped out your ubuntu i guess | 01:31 |
| zsquareplusc | devslashnull: with a virtual screen you have a separate desktop. so even multiple users can work at the same machine. for that you run tighgvnc-server for example | 01:31 |
| csilk | UBUSAE, that's what I just said | 01:32 |
| UBUSAE | no | 01:32 |
| UBUSAE | I don' | 01:32 |
| UBUSAE | there 2 drive | 01:32 |
| zsquareplusc | devslashnull: tightvnc that is | 01:32 |
| llffrrwcc | U-b-u-n-t-u, i won't play too much with services if you are not familiar with process administration.. but seems ok. | 01:32 |

| AlanBShepard70 | My BIOS does not support booting from USB so I was wondering if GRUB can load a USB stick with Linux installed on it. Is this possible? If not is there something else that can give me this functionality? | 01:32 |

| carter | yes | 01:34 |
| ivantis | i did something weird, and now my screen is zoomed in | 01:34 |

| ubottu | carter: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help | 01:34 |
| llffrrwcc | carter, you will need wine. aptitude install wine. | 01:34 |

| carter | so is there a place wherfe i casn download itunes that works with kubuntu | 01:35 |
| tripitakit | carter: you can virtualize win with virtualbox then run seamlessly itunes... | 01:35 |
| csilk | !caps | 01:35 |
| ubottu | PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 01:35 |
| llffrrwcc | carter, no. itunes is for mac. | 01:35 |
| llffrrwcc | carter, try: amarok, songbird, etc | 01:35 |
| csilk | UBUSAE, It looks like you need to install GRUB | 01:35 |
| f3ng14 | llffrrwcc, I'm poor in english and i'm so tired to read the manpages | 01:35 |
| csilk | !grub | UBUSAE | 01:35 |

| carter | but i want to work my ipod | 01:35 |

| carter | the playlist wont work if i add it directly | 01:35 |
| llffrrwcc | carter, most linux music player support ipods | 01:35 |
| UBUSAE | but I can I reinstall grub ???? | 01:35 |
| tripitakit | carter: gtkpod | 01:36 |
| f3ng14 | llffrrwcc, i have spent a whole night to work with this | 01:36 |
| jordanv | llffrrwcc: i cant find the 188 beta driver, and if i do find it how do i install it | 01:36 |
| pino | "I have a problem with my firefox on my ASUS EEE 900. The CPU Load is very high and is not possible to close ff complete. Only with killall. What can I do?" No ideaß | 01:36 |
| UBUSAE | use live cd ? | 01:36 |
| csilk | UBUSAE, I will once more link you to the tutorial | 01:36 |
| PeskyJ | llffrrwcc: do you know anything about how I can tell if it's using foo2zjs? I don't know where to tell it which driver to use | 01:36 |
| csilk | !grub | UBUSAE | 01:36 |

| llffrrwcc | jordanv, again, if you are not able to do that, you will have to wait for anyone who tells you howto do it in ubuntu way | 01:36 |
| jordanv | alright | 01:36 |
| llffrrwcc | PeskyJ, usually it recognises your printer, | 01:36 |

| UBUSAE | Grub but how ??? | 01:37 |
| PeskyJ | llffrrwcc: it's a network one (plugs straight in) - th eIP is 192.168.1.250 - I have no idea of the port number | 01:37 |
| csilk | UBUSAE, follow the tutorial word for word | 01:37 |
| Gnea | UBUSAE: by reading the website. | 01:37 |
| PeskyJ | llffrrwcc: I will try 631 though :) | 01:37 |
| llffrrwcc | PeskyJ, what i told you is the cups manager :) | 01:37 |
| tripitakit | UBUSAE you need a live cd and reading the tutorial | 01:37 |
| csilk | I gave him the luink twice | 01:37 |
| UBUSAE | oh ok | 01:38 |
| csilk | *link | 01:38 |
| Eight-ten | Who knows of a program that fetches album covers and saves them to my disk, that's not dificult to use | 01:38 |
| UBUSAE | can it alternate CD ? | 01:38 |
| csilk | YES | 01:38 |
| Gnea | UBUSAE: you just need to read the website and follow directions. | 01:38 |
| llffrrwcc | f3ng14, its too hard to do: telnet smtpserver 25 and write? :) | 01:38 |
| PeskyJ | llffrrwcc: oh right, I see | 01:38 |
| UBUSAE | but in alternate CD there no gui interface | 01:38 |
| UBUSAE | and the website showing tut for gui interface | 01:38 |
| tripitakit | UBUSAE: you dont need the gui for that task | 01:38 |
| llffrrwcc | PeskyJ, that will help you manage your printers and stuff. | 01:39 |
| csilk | UBUSAE, You dont need one, now go follow the tutorial | 01:39 |
| Gnea | UBUSAE: if you can't handle a commandline interface, then perhaps linux isn't for you. | 01:39 |
| llffrrwcc | its the same concept as swat for samba | 01:39 |
| UBUSAE | I will try my best | 01:39 |
| llffrrwcc | Gnea, what? you are saying that and you use buntu? :) | 01:39 |
| tripitakit | Gnea, give him an opportunity | 01:39 |
| Gnea | tripitakit: oh, I am | 01:39 |
| PeskyJ | llffrrwcc: ok... seems to have the same info as the printer config tool | 01:39 |
| csilk | pfft like he deserves it | 01:39 |
| tripitakit | UBUSAE: if u dont understan some steps come back here | 01:39 |

| === lolitsgriff] is now known as lolitsgriff | ||
| csilk | meh | 01:40 |
| Gnea | exactly. | 01:40 |
| lolitsgriff | Yeah. So still having problems no one is willing to fix/is knowledgable enough to fix. | 01:40 |
| tripitakit | cslik he's just afraid | 01:40 |
| llffrrwcc | PeskyJ, look at what printer driver says | 01:40 |
| lolitsgriff | Can't put discs in my CD drive or 8.10 will crash upon attempting to mount. | 01:41 |
| lolitsgriff | How do I fix it. | 01:41 |
| csilk | tripitakit, Sounds like you're sugar coating his want to be spoon fed | 01:41 |
| llffrrwcc | PeskyJ, you can : modify printer or set printer options | 01:41 |
| tripitakit | cslik no i'm not... | 01:41 |
| Gnea | tripitakit: give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day, show a man how to fish and he'll be set. | 01:41 |
| f3ng14 | llffrrwcc, i think i need to read more doc about this | 01:41 |
| csilk | some people don't want to fish | 01:42 |
| tripitakit | Gnea: i agree 100% | 01:42 |
| PeskyJ | llffrrwcc: it seems to have some good help on network printers, how to test the connection which I think is the issue :) | 01:42 |
| tripitakit | cslik they'll dye of hunger | 01:42 |
| lolitsgriff | 1359 users don't know how to fix this problem? Genius community we have here. | 01:42 |
| csilk | tripitakit, That's hardly a bad thing | 01:42 |
| llffrrwcc | PeskyJ, just print a test page if its print its not connection issue | 01:42 |
| llffrrwcc | if its print bad its driver issue | 01:42 |
| llffrrwcc | this all is seteable from there. | 01:42 |
| ardchoille | lolitsgriff: and how many of those users are looking at their irc client right now? | 01:42 |
| tripitakit | cslik my point is just no need to be rude :) | 01:42 |
| llffrrwcc | try some google in order to find what driver works well with your printer | 01:43 |
| linuxjoe | hi all, new ubuntu and linux user here | 01:43 |
| cali_ | donald | 01:43 |
| lolitsgriff | ardchoille: not the point- the point is I haven't gotten an answer, even after googling, being on the forum, and being here for days. | 01:43 |

| Gnea | tripitakit: mind if I PM you? | 01:43 |
| Eight-ten | llffrrwcc, I know, but banshee isnt doing it, songbird isnt doing it... | 01:43 |
| csilk | tripitakit, Yeah I see your point I just find it annoying that you show someone the way, point to very basic easy to follow steps, then instead of reading those steps he insists on asking question that the tutorial answers ion the first line, at least make an effort to just look at the resources provided before getting caps lock crazy on us | 01:43 |

In kern.log i see this error message: device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table. This seems to be a bug in device-mapper but i don;t see any solution. But in debian, with a similar kernel it works without problems. Any solutions here? | 01:54 |

| linuxjoe | vox, exactly why would they, unless the offical ones are coded totally differently m8, so try both versions and see which version works best | 02:15 |
| Flannel | Shoopuf1: delete the files | 02:16 |
| johannes_ | tiberium wars or RA3 for example | 02:16 |
| Flannel | Shoopuf1: try make uninstall, it might have one. | 02:16 |
| zmjjmz | Has anyone had any luck getting the bcm4306 working on Intrepid? | 02:16 |
| linuxjoe | vox, i use alternative radeon drivers on my bindoze machine and they work much better than offical drivers m8 | 02:16 |
| vox | linuxjoe: ...seriously, you have no idea what you're talking about | 02:16 |
| Dr_willis | <johannes_> checked the wine app database yet? | 02:16 |
| johannes_ | yes | 02:16 |
| zsquareplusc | johannes_: so you dont have to reboot and can still run single applications. that way you can have an old ubuntu or a 32 bit on a 64 bit machine, for those cases you need | 02:16 |
| philippe_ | Hello. Since the lasts Ubuntu 8.10 update, my desktop don't start at the good resolution. Usually it start at 1280x1024 but now it start at 1024x768. I have add H/Vsync to my xorg.conf file and more res are available now, but I need to set them at every start. Is it possible to set a resolution for start? | 02:16 |
| Dr_willis | johannes_, also the latest wine from the winehq repos may have the needed updates/patches.. but i dotn play the latest games much.. so thats about all i can suggest | 02:17 |
| linuxjoe | johannes, if they run on windows, it should run in wine, tho go to their web site and check out the applications page, will tell you which apps they know about | 02:17 |
| linuxjoe | vox | 02:17 |
| Asathoor | somehow gdm won't display alternative sessions, how can I enable that? | 02:17 |
| johannes_ | no I already got the latest beta but it wont support the cursors | 02:17 |
| linuxjoe | u said earlier that both drivers are the same, i attested they werent m8, end of | 02:17 |
| zsquareplusc | philippe_: if you select the resolution through system->prefs->display, it doesnt store it | 02:18 |
| linuxjoe | ah sorry johannes, check out the wine support pages m8, maybe someone there has a fix | 02:18 |
| pyrohotdog | Does anyone know why Rhythmbox would ask me for a blank CD when there is already one inserted? | 02:18 |
| CoJaBo | I can't get mdadm to report when a disk in a RAID array fails, any idea why? | 02:18 |
| vox | linuxjoe: ...the nvidia drivers you get from the nvidia site, and the nvidia-glx-* packages you get are the same thing. EOL. | 02:18 |
| philippe_ | zsquareplusc, I select it in the Nvidia settings panel. but it don't store it etheir | 02:18 |
| Dr_willis | johannes_ makes me wonder whats so fancy about those games cursors.... | 02:18 |
| PakoTM | hi | 02:18 |
| linuxjoe | vox, ubuntu develop their own drivers m8 | 02:18 |
| johannes_ | Dr_willis what would be needed to force the pc to use the 32bit deb | 02:18 |
| Jordan_U | slope: Try the exact same setup without XGL, it will probably work | 02:19 |
| PakoTM | help oper an #ubuntu-es | 02:19 |
| zsquareplusc | pyrohotdog: you dont seem to be the 1st one asking. did you check for bug reports on launchpad.net? | 02:19 |
| PakoTM | please | 02:19 |
| johannes_ | Dr_willis thats the worst, they aint even fancy at all | 02:19 |
| Randomly | Could use some help here with 8.04 - can't get on network anymore. Has been working fine all year. "Connection Information" shows I got an IP address in the 192.168 range. I can ping the router. I cannot surf to the router, or anywhere else. | 02:19 |
| philippe_ | zsquareplusc, is there any way to store it? | 02:19 |
| pyrohotdog | I have not, I will now. | 02:19 |
| Dr_willis | johannes_, no idea.. im using 64bit here.. but i dont use wine much except for some utilities. | 02:19 |
| PakoTM | help oper an #ubuntu-es | 02:19 |
| PakoTM | please | 02:19 |
| vox | linuxjoe: so you're saying that the nvidia-glx-177 package is entirely developed by ubuntu? | 02:19 |
| supravat | hi | 02:19 |
| zmjjmz | oper= ? | 02:19 |
| PakoTM | yes | 02:19 |
| zmjjmz | PakoTM, ^ | 02:19 |
| zsquareplusc | philippe_: if the nvidia-settings application should write the xorg.conf, you need to run it with gksudo. though many settings are possible without that | 02:20 |
| PakoTM | #ubuntu-es | 02:20 |
| zmjjmz | Do you mean.... you want an op/ | 02:20 |
| pyrohotdog | Blanks do show up on the desktop. | 02:20 |
| lakitu | is there any log of keystrokes i've made, that i can recover? i just lost a post in IRC, & i'd like to get it back | 02:20 |
| PakoTM | please | 02:20 |
| philippe_ | zsquareplusc, ok! i'll give it a try, thank you | 02:20 |
| supravat | I have found a bug in Ubuntu | 02:20 |
| linuxjoe | i am saying the ones installed by the ubuntu o/s are developed by ubuntu, drivers found on nvidias web site are developed by nvidia m8 | 02:20 |
| supravat | when I type $sudo su | 02:20 |
| supravat | it prompts for password | 02:20 |
| Flannel | !enter | supravat | 02:20 |
| zsquareplusc | lakitu: some channels are logged. does that help? | 02:20 |
| ubottu | supravat: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 02:20 |
| lakitu | zsquareplusc, nah, it was my buffer/editbox | 02:20 |
| pillow | wow Ubuntu xchat loads right into freenode, thats why every ones here | 02:21 |
| Dr_willis | supravat, dont use 'su' its basicially disabled by default inubuntu,. if you want a root shell use 'sudo -s' | 02:21 |
| PakoTM | no hay oper y estan jodiendo el canal | 02:21 |
| lakitu | not buffer -- editbox | 02:21 |
| lakitu | zsquareplusc, not buffer -- editbox | 02:21 |
| Flannel | linuxjoe: that's wrong. | 02:21 |
| zsquareplusc | lakitu: if you sent the text, arrow-up scrolls though the history in many clients. if you did not send it, its probably lost | 02:21 |
| abortd | how do i search on apt-get through terminal i cant remember for some reason :/ | 02:22 |
| Dr_willis | supravat, http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/05/09/a-root-shell-on-ubuntu-the-right-way/ | 02:22 |
| lakitu | zsquareplusc, ok, dang. no big deal. i think i'm going to enable a keylogger on my system for that reason. i am a writer... | 02:22 |
| Flannel | abortd: apt-cache search | 02:22 |
| vox | linuxjoe: dude, seriously, learn about what the hell you're talking about. the ONLY difference between the ones on the nvidia site, and the ones available on ubuntu, is that the nvidia-glx package maintainers have already downloaded the binary from nvidia and stuck it in a .deb for you. Please, for the love of God, do NOT tell people things you know nothing about. | 02:22 |
| zsquareplusc | abortd: apt-cache search | 02:22 |
| zmjjmz | Guys, #ubuntu-es has been trolled over. | 02:22 |
| pyrohotdog | abortd: apt-cache search string | 02:22 |
| Flannel | Dr_willis: He hasnt fully stated his problem, how do you know what he's asking? | 02:22 |
| abortd | nice thanks | 02:22 |
| Xang | Can anyone op up in ubuntu-es? There is a flooder in the channel. | 02:23 |
| zsquareplusc | lakitu: cut instead of delete instead and have glipper or an other clipboard manager :-) | 02:23 |
| linuxjoe | is it flannel, soz was private there fer a mo | 02:23 |
| Flannel | Xang: #ubuntu-irc is the place to go for that | 02:23 |
| pillow | Hey guys i just dual booted vista/Ubuntu and Ubuntu is in 800X600 with no option for a bigger screen rez any ideas? | 02:23 |
| linuxjoe | theni f its wrong, I stand corrected m8 | 02:23 |
| supravat | I tried but, for the second time when I type the same command it does not prompt for the password | 02:23 |
| rendero | hello, anybody knows how to make krfb running at startup, i get a "cannot connect to X server" message when i try my script | 02:23 |
| uhsf | my xinetd fails to start | 02:23 |
| vox | linuxjoe: you are so amazingly wrong i dont know where to start. | 02:23 |
| uhsf | bind failed (Permission denied (errno = 13)). service = auth | 02:23 |
| Xpistos | Can someone help me mount a folder on a different system to a folder in my home directory on my laptop? | 02:24 |
| uhsf | bad service attribute: logonfailure [file=/etc/xinetd.d/auth] [line=9] | 02:24 |
| Xang | Flannel: Thanks. | 02:24 |
| Dr_willis | supravat, Huh when you use sudo it 'caches' the password for a few min. so you dont have to reenter the sudo users password. Unless you are having some deeper issue.. | 02:24 |
| lakitu | zsquareplusc, i already had a cut, so i re-cut, losing the first words. yeah, clipboard manager =) thanks, i'll look up glipper | 02:24 |
| Johnny_5 | when i scp from another computer is it ok 2 stop it then start again on a later date or later time? or does it have to be done in one sitting? | 02:25 |
| linuxjoe | supravat, type CTRL and F2 to get into superuser mode, then type gksu and terminal and optionally folder to go straight to chosen folder, it will ask u for password then m8 | 02:25 |
| zsquareplusc | Johnny_5: you might want to try rsync | 02:26 |
| Johnny_5 | k | 02:26 |
| linuxjoe | oops that gksu terminal /etc/whateverfolders | 02:26 |
| supravat | linuxjoe: thanks | 02:26 |
| linuxjoe | did it work m8? | 02:26 |
| Johnny_5 | zsquareplusc: how does that work? | 02:27 |
| linuxjoe | damn i missed irc :)) | 02:27 |
| linuxjoe | supravat, did it work m8? | 02:27 |
| supravat | yup | 02:28 |
| linuxjoe | cool m8 | 02:28 |
| zsquareplusc | Johnny_5: rsync synchronizes folders/files and only copies the differences. it can also work with ssh so that your data is encrypted in the network | 02:28 |
| hatemtmtm | hi every body i have ati x1100 and i need it's driver | 02:28 |
| linuxjoe | amazing wot u can learn in a few days on a new O/S eh :)) | 02:28 |
| Dr_willis | supravat be VERY carefull when running the filemanager as the root user.. You can easially mess up things.. | 02:28 |
| manzur | hello | 02:28 |
| Johnny_5 | zsquareplusc: sweet | 02:29 |
| linuxjoe | hatemtmtm doesnt ubuntu install a driver that u can use? | 02:29 |
| CoJaBo | I can't get mdadm to report when a disk in a RAID array fails, any idea why? | 02:29 |
| hatemtmtm | no | 02:29 |
| Johnny_5 | zsquareplusc: so how does it work? what's the comand? | 02:29 |
| supravat | Dr_wills: yup when I'm superuser it becomes a resposibility | 02:29 |
| zsquareplusc | Johnny_5: just be careful that you don't sync into the wrong direction with the mirror/delete option ;-) | 02:29 |
| hatemtmtm | when i use it ubuntu doesn't work | 02:30 |
| linuxjoe | other than that go to system menu > admin > hardware testing | 02:30 |
| zsquareplusc | Johnny_5: i dont use it often. check the man page "man rsync" it has examples | 02:30 |
| linuxjoe | it might say that there is an official driver that u can download and use m8 | 02:30 |
| rendero | hello, anybody knows how to make krfb running at startup, i get a "cannot connect to X server" message when i try my script | 02:30 |
| Johnny_5 | k | 02:30 |
| dig | hi, is there any way to restore files association? | 02:30 |
| Dr_willis | supravat - ive seen peoople set up their root user themes to be very diffefrent colors. (bright reds) so they can tell what file manager is a root one.. Not sure if that still works these days.. | 02:30 |
| pillow | how do you update ubuntu drivers? | 02:30 |
| zsquareplusc | rendero: start it when the x session starts, not when the computer boots (i.e. not /etc/init.d) | 02:31 |
| linuxjoe | pillow what drivers u want to update exactly m8 | 02:31 |
| Flannel | Dr_willis: Of course it works | 02:31 |
| LLMP | is it possible for me to listen to my music from my home computer that uses windows media center from my laptop | 02:31 |

| supravat | Dr_wills: Till now I din't try this | 02:31 |
| zsquareplusc | Dig: click on a file of that type, open properties and go to the open with tab to select application | 02:32 |
| rendero | zsquareplusc, ok, i know what to do not, but i do not know what to do | 02:32 |
| michalski-bj | how do i disable compiz...? | 02:32 |
| linuxjoe | PILLOW, go to system menu > admin > hardware testing, it might tell u that there are officla drivers available for u to install m8 | 02:32 |
| Dr_willis | supravat, its one of those things thats proberly best to not be doing. :) | 02:32 |
| supravat | Dr_wills: I will try it later | 02:32 |
| pillow | thanks | 02:32 |

| LLMP | come on | 02:33 |
| linuxjoe | i dont think that linux as advertised by ubuntu is cooked enough for wholesale use at the moment, too many bugs in it | 02:33 |
| Xpistos | Can someone help me mount a folder on a different system to a folder in my home directory on my laptop? | 02:33 |
| dig | zsquareplusc: is it possible to reset all files association at once | 02:33 |
| michalski-bj | pyrohotdog: ok thanks, and how would I re-enable it later? | 02:33 |
| pyrohotdog | compiz --replace & | 02:33 |
| michalski-bj | ahhhhh ok thanks | 02:33 |
| zsquareplusc | rendero: well there is .Xsession or a similar file that is executed when x starts. but KDE (krfb, is from KDE right) might have an option to share the screen too. well the gnome eddition has that in the user preferences | 02:33 |
| bullgard4 | What line do I have to add in rsnapshot.conf in order to backup also the list of currently installed packages? Is "backup dpkg -l localhost/" the correct syntax? | 02:33 |

| Randomly | Ralph, go ahead | 02:34 |
| JarG0n | how do I determine what format a device is? | 02:34 |
| tripitakit | ralph: what is the problem | 02:34 |
| linuxjoe | how do u mean format? | 02:35 |
| pyrohotdog | michalski-bj: run: I wrote aliases in my .bashrc, bling and nobling. ;) | 02:35 |
| ralph | i just installed 8.10,i got too the login window and signed in fine.after that the screen went black and the cursor stayed on. | 02:35 |
| JarG0n | linuxjoe> file format | 02:35 |
| pyrohotdog | oops, no run. | 02:35 |
| LLMP | hello anyone could help | 02:35 |
| linuxjoe | most file formats usually have an extension, if it doesn't, i think its either a text file, or a config file m8 | 02:35 |
| tripitakit | !any | LLMP | 02:35 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about any | 02:35 |
| tripitakit | LLMP ask you question | 02:36 |

| LLMP | 8.04 | 02:37 |
| LLMP | hardy | 02:37 |
| zsquareplusc | LLMP: no, it can also play files from your disk | 02:37 |
| linuxjoe | if u have mp3 files on another hard drive and that hard drive is on a windows workgroup (usually MSHOME) just click on NETWORK in PLACES and u should be able to sssee your music files and play em too ;) | 02:38 |
| linuxjoe | does that help any LLMP? | 02:38 |

| Tetracomm | jrib: We didn't fix it, you didn't reply to my second post. | 02:46 |
| zsquareplusc | Johnny_5: yes. just repeat the same command later. | 02:46 |
| tommck | EJ - it's GDM by default, but I've tried startx too | 02:46 |

| EJ | tommck: have you been able to get X to start at all with any gui ? | 02:46 |
| Tetracomm | But I can't install nor remove any packages, because of that. | 02:47 |
| bullgard4 | zsquareplusc: Your answer is false. '~$ sudo rsnapshot hourly' now obtains: "Errors were found in /etc/rsnapshot.conf, rsnapshot cannot continue. If you think an entry looks right, make sure you don't have spaces." But I checked that tabs and spaces are all right in the line that I added. | 02:47 |
| jrib | Tetracomm: right. Why are you installing things manually with dpkg? | 02:47 |
| tommck | EJ - when it gives me the error, it's graphical, and the login is graphical, but I can't get a window manager in any way | 02:47 |
| Tetracomm | jrib: I'm not. | 02:47 |
| jrib | Tetracomm: you were before. Why? | 02:47 |
| tommck | EJ - I have a .xsession-errors file, but it's not too informative | 02:47 |

| zsquareplusc | bullgard4: ah. that one. well dpkg --get-selections prints to stdout you have to redirect the output like dpkg --get-selections > packages.txt later you could then use --get-selections to import the list again | 02:49 |

| pyrohotdog | Blanks show up on my desktop, but rhythmbox still asks for a blank. http://pastebin.com/d3cda9084 | 02:50 |
| Qebafhzn | a little question: At the partition screen in part 4/7 in the live cd installer, and the "after" bar says "100% Ubuntu" or something (I forget,) does that mean it's going to blank the entire disk to make its partition? | 02:50 |
| Tetracomm | jrib: http://pastebin.com/d6360c78e | 02:51 |
| bullgard4 | zsquareplusc: What do you mean by "later"? It is a config file. There is no "later". | 02:51 |
| linuxjoe | pyrohotdog, I think there is a problem in the latest ubuntu with regard to mounting and using cd's/dvd's | 02:51 |
| jrib | Tetracomm: as well as: apt-cache policy libsigc++-1.2 | 02:51 |
| pyrohotdog | linuxjoe: Anyone known solutions? I've been losing hair over this issue. | 02:51 |
| zsquareplusc | bullgard4: you backup, i mena later when you're going to use the backed up data to restore your machine in case of problems | 02:52 |

| Tetracomm | jrib: W: Unable to locate package libsigc++-1.2 | 02:52 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: yes 100% is wiping the disk to make it all for ubuntu | 02:52 |
| jrib | Tetracomm: sorry, libsigc++-1.2-5c2 | 02:52 |
| danbhfive | pyrohotdog: are you trying to burn a disk? try k3b, see if it gives the same errors. | 02:52 |
| Tetracomm | jrib: http://pastebin.com/d4cd49e7f | 02:53 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: How do I set it so that I can have both NTFS and XFS3 on the computer without blanking the entire disc> | 02:53 |
| Qebafhzn | ? | 02:53 |
| bullgard4 | zsquareplusc: The procedure which you suggest is a procedure of hand-work. rsnapshot is there to do backup automatically. This is a difference. I'd like to backup this one file too but automaticall, not as an additional hand-work. | 02:53 |
| bullgard4 | automatically | 02:53 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: use manual partition not automatic one | 02:53 |
| jrib | Tetracomm: k, so now where does libsigc++ come from? It's not in intrepid's repositories. Is this an upgrade or fresh install? | 02:54 |
| Tetracomm | :( | 02:54 |
| Tetracomm | I think I installed it from a .deb package. | 02:54 |
| Tetracomm | jrib | 02:54 |
| jrib | Tetracomm: remove it using dpkg | 02:54 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: I clocked on the "Manual" radio button, but I don't think it did anything. I exited the installer; this is the computer I want to run linux on. | 02:54 |
| Tetracomm | How? | 02:54 |
| Qebafhzn | click* | 02:54 |
| jrib | Tetracomm: dpkg -r PACKAGE | 02:54 |
| [g2] | is there a way to disable SMP via the command line in Grub on Ibex ? | 02:54 |
| zsquareplusc | bullgard4: it will get the list of packages automatically. backing up is usually not the problem. restoring is (if its not just a 1:1 copy..) | 02:54 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: nothing has been done already, u'd follow manual partitioning | 02:55 |
| linuxjoe | pyrohotdog, I doint know anyone who has found a solution to this problem yet m8 | 02:55 |
| Tetracomm | jrib: Not installed. | 02:55 |
| linuxjoe | I came here myself to see if I could find some answers | 02:55 |
| [g2] | that would be on -generic and the kernel command line :) | 02:55 |
| jrib | Tetracomm: what did you type? | 02:55 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: is there alrready a ntfs partition with windows intsalled on? | 02:55 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: Yes. | 02:55 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: and you want to keep it, right? | 02:56 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: This is mostly an expirimental install. | 02:56 |
| Qebafhzn | Yes. | 02:56 |
| bullgard4 | zsquareplusc: What do you mean by "it"? rsnapshot will not get the list of packages automatically. It throws an error message. | 02:56 |

| Tetracomm | jrib: nicholas@nicholas-desktop:~$ sudo dpkg -r libsigc++-1.2-5c2 | 02:56 |
| linuxjoe | k all, I have to go now, btu will hopefully see u all on tuesday if all goes well, cya all and have fun ;) | 02:56 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: so go with manual partitioning | 02:56 |
| jrib | Tetracomm: no, you want to get rid of the deb you installed: libsigc++ | 02:56 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: Do I just click on the manual radio button and the next page will have partitioning options? | 02:56 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: then resize the Ntfs one | 02:56 |
| Qebafhzn | In the live installer? | 02:57 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: yes, net page will come a partitiong program (gparted) | 02:57 |

| ubottu | 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).

| raven_ | i am bout to reinstall ubuntu on my laptop | 03:03 |
| raven_ | and i was thinking about trying the 64bit | 03:03 |
| raven_ | is there any reason to, or not to, consider that | 03:03 |
| tripitakit | bneitsch: so u'll have no problems | 03:03 |
| raven_ | is anything incompat with 64bit? | 03:03 |
| luddite | zsquareplusc : thank god - is there even a #windows? | 03:03 |
| raven_ | yes, there is | 03:03 |
| raven_ | ##windows | 03:04 |
| zsquareplusc | raven_: its easier to get support for 32 bits and there a re a few applications that are easier to get for 32 bits. appart from that 64 bits run fine here. | 03:04 |
| raven_ | u can compile a 32bit app on 64bit lin | 03:04 |
| raven_ | right | 03:04 |
| raven_ | without issue | 03:04 |
| raven_ | ? | 03:04 |
| tripitakit | raven_: 64 runs fine on my amd too, but i agree, less support and less apps | 03:04 |
| FloodBot2 | raven_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:04 |
| raven_ | so ubuntu 64 has no 32bit compat? | 03:04 |
| raven_ | if that's the case then #%@$ it :p | 03:05 |
| zsquareplusc | raven_: hm. that already counts as cross compiling i think | 03:05 |
| quagga | in my experience, the only things missed on 64-bit is the proprietary flash player | 03:05 |
| Axlbeta | please site in spanish.. ? which is | 03:05 |
| Xang | Axlbeta: ubuntu-es | 03:05 |
| tripitakit | quagga: i got some java issues too | 03:05 |
| Axlbeta | thanks.. Xang | 03:05 |
| raven_ | ive been using OSX for the past week | 03:05 |
| raven_ | has been a very positive experience, but i gained a new appreciation for linux | 03:05 |
| Xang | Axlbeta: No problem. :) | 03:05 |
| raven_ | i had no idea how much better it was at wine and X | 03:06 |
| zsquareplusc | raven_: yes, ubuntu has several 32 compatibulity libs for the 64 bit system. it is possible to install 32 bit apps. its just not as easy as directly running a 32 bit system | 03:06 |
| tripitakit | raven_: i'm gettin deadmoo to try it in a vbox :P | 03:06 |
| raven_ | deadmoo is the 64bit edition, yes? | 03:06 |
| raven_ | tell me how that goes | 03:06 |
| tripitakit | raven_: well no | 03:06 |
| juancarlospaco | ubuntu: linux for smart beings | 03:06 |

| jlaroche | I am having trouble getting my 7.1 speakers to work in Ubuntu. I am running version 8.10 64bit and I have a Soundblaster Audigy 4. I've tried Rythmbox, Songbird and Listen Music Player.

| Dr_willis | jlaroche, what are you playing that has 7.1 surround sound? In the past when listing to stero mp3's i could mess with the alsa-mixer controlls and mirror the front to the rear.. or some players had extensions/plugins that would convert stero to 4.1 or higher output | 03:08 |

| tripitakit | raven_: sorry for that (deadmoo is Os86X a patched leopard :P) | 03:08 |
| tripitakit | raven_: u'd try intrepid amd64 if you look for 64bit | 03:08 |
| zsquareplusc | jlaroche: i have no clue, but i saw seveal ALSA devices on my system, one called 7.1 one 6.1 etc. maybe you need to set the player to use one of these | 03:08 |
| raven_ | is there a way (other than rolling your own script, which i imagine ill have to do) to make it so that when u click on a disk image (*.img, *.iso, etc) it will mount it automatically and create a desktop icon for it | 03:08 |
| raven_ | ala OSX | 03:08 |
| EJ | tommck: well i dont see the process running | 03:09 |

| zsquareplusc | ok :-) | 03:09 |
| MasterShrek | writing your own script would not be hard... | 03:09 |

| EJ | tell me what happens if anything | 03:10 |
| * raven_ gets his ubuntu jump drive | 03:10 | |
| raven_ | tripitakit, looks like that's just a GUI app for mount | 03:11 |
| tommck | ok.. just a sec... | 03:11 |
| jlaroche | dr_willis: I am playing mp3 files, flac files, etc. They all play fine in 7.1 under windows... I don't understand why this has to be such an issue in Ubuntu... | 03:11 |
| PeskyJ | raven_: you could make a bootable USB memory stick, that's fun | 03:11 |
| tripitakit | raven_: yes it is a gui for a loopback mount | 03:11 |
| raven_ | already made 5 or so, peskyj | 03:11 |
| ReleaseX | how can i see which version of a package is installed through the terminal | 03:11 |
| raven_ | i am booting one now | 03:11 |
| juancarlospaco | jlaroche, windows out of the box dont play that formats | 03:11 |
| Dr_willis | jlaroche, windows drivers are fakeing the 7.1 extra channels.. while by default ubuntu is not.. is the 'core' of the issue. | 03:11 |
| zsquareplusc | ah the usb boot thingy.. if it would only work here too... | 03:11 |
| ardchoille | ReleaseX: apt-cache policy PACKAGE | 03:12 |

| tommck | got a basic X desktop w/ nothing on it | 03:12 |
| tommck | EJ - so, basic X works | 03:12 |
| bullgard4 | What line do I have to add in rsnapshot.conf in order to backup also the list of currently installed packages? "backup dpkg -l localhost/" is not the correct syntax. | 03:13 |
| zsquareplusc | tripitakit: i saw a bug in launchpad i'm not the only one. and i used the same stick with a image of the mobile edition (written with dd) that boots well (same stick, same pc) | 03:13 |
| jlaroche | juancalospaco - sure... but CCCP does the job with minimum fuss... That is why I am in here asking how to do this in Ubuntu. I have already scoured google, but no luck... | 03:13 |
| tripitakit | zsquareplusc: i see. | 03:14 |
| EJ | tommck: ok .... that is most likley your xfce4 desktop ... (not totally sure) but i think it is ... are you familiar with xfce4 and wahat it looks like | 03:14 |
| jlaroche | What codecs do I need to get | 03:14 |
| shl-x | hello,guys | 03:14 |
| tommck | EJ - uhh.. not really sure.. | 03:14 |
| EJ | tommck: its been a looooooong time since i used xfce4 gui | 03:14 |
| tommck | EJ - frankly, I don't care which desktop I use, I just want to be able to run mythtv on this :) | 03:15 |

| merlin | Hi, i would like to know if pingflood without Dos tentation is illegal (i'am a student, just want to try on a private server over web) | 03:19 |
| Gnea | oops | 03:19 |
| MiladKhajavi | bullgard4: now what should I do? | 03:19 |
| Gnea | damaltor: sorry, wrong person | 03:19 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: i dont understand what are you doin and where, pls explane | 03:19 |
| juancarlospaco | ping is very illegal | 03:19 |
| jlaroche | Dr_willis - I ran the test and it plays everything in my front left, front right and front center speakers (including rear left and rear right) | 03:19 |
| juancarlospaco | no im just kidding | 03:19 |
| Kanster | tripitakit: In Mozilla Firefox, the program like java or something isn't working. I think it's javascript but I'm allowing it to run and still nothing. What do I do? It worked before. | 03:20 |
| merlin | i know :p | 03:20 |

| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: I'm on an IRC client on Windows, and I want to install Ubuntu alongside Windows without deleting it | 03:20 |
| juancarlospaco | i think not | 03:20 |
| pyrohotdog | Can anyone make sense of this: http://pastebin.com/d3cda9084 | 03:20 |
| tripitakit | Kanster: have installed java? | 03:20 |
| merlin | juancarlospaco: if i ping 1000 times google in 1 min, is illegal ? | 03:20 |
| bullgard4 | MiladKhajavi: First determine your processor type. Then Google for 'IDE', 'Ubuntu', <your processor type> | 03:20 |
| Kanster | tripitakit: yes | 03:20 |
| zsquareplusc | Kanster: java and javascript are not the same thing. for java you need to install the java plugin separately in synaptics | 03:20 |
| juancarlospaco | anyone can disable ICMP packets on the server, and ping go, but dont back again | 03:21 |
| Gnea | pyrohotdog: your hard drive has problems | 03:21 |
| zsquareplusc | merlin: that sounds like the admins there would see it as attack.. | 03:21 |
| Kanster | zsquareplusc: Then how do I get javascript? | 03:21 |
| PeskyJ | zsquareplusc: no, it's a network printer. | 03:21 |
| Arcticfox | hey I'm trying to download limewire but when i hit install package it says only one software management tool can be run at a time but I;'m not running any others | 03:21 |
| juancarlospaco | i think ping is not illegal, a lot of apps ping servers all time is running | 03:21 |
| Gnea | juancarlospaco: who are you talking to? | 03:22 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: u have to run the live cd | 03:22 |
| zsquareplusc | Kanster: that is already built into the browser. if you enabled that in the options (under security) it should work ( unless you installed an extension like noscript) | 03:22 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: the go with install | 03:22 |
| ReleaseX | how can i see a listing of packages ready to be upgraded through terminal | 03:22 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: I have. I used the live CD, but I quit the installer midway and ordered a restart | 03:22 |
| merlin | zsquareplusc: ok | 03:23 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: when it comes to the resizing the ntfs partition have to be unmounted | 03:23 |
| damian__ | my totem movie player wont play dvds. whats the problem? | 03:23 |
| juancarlospaco | hay people, here in usa or rest of the planet, you have working "Ares" with conected status??? | 03:23 |
| juancarlospaco | here dont work | 03:23 |
| Kanster | zsquareplusc: Wait. I think I just figured out the problem. I have a firewall security. | 03:23 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: Huh> Can I see a graphical guide for this? | 03:23 |
| Qebafhzn | Huh?* | 03:23 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: probably it was mounted and u cannot resize it | 03:23 |
| PeskyJ | ReleaseX: man apt-get - then do apt-get upgrade adding the option to just list stuff and not actually do work | 03:23 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: Mounted? | 03:23 |
| zsquareplusc | PeskyJ: "network printer" is generic. as you found out there are several protocols in use like smb, lpr and socket. i have to use socket for the HP laser printer (i think they call it jet direct) | 03:23 |
| juancarlospaco | no one use Ares ? | 03:24 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: the live cd mounts your ntfs partitions | 03:24 |
| juancarlospaco | :( | 03:24 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: So I can't resize them? | 03:24 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: so when u go with install, in the gparted, u have to unmount it | 03:24 |
| brujo | hey anybody know good tutorial for ioctl? | 03:24 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: So, I unmount it, then I resize it? | 03:24 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: after having unmounted u can resize | 03:25 |
| PeskyJ | zsquareplusc: yeah.. I don't know the exact protocol, I just know that foo2zjs is the driver that implements the protocol for my printer... I just can't figure out how CUPS decides which foo* driver to use, must be based on the socket:// or lpd:// prefix but I don't know what to set it to to make it use foo2zjs | 03:25 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: What does mounting do? | 03:25 |
| Dr_willis | jlaroche, i was doing all these tests to get my 5.1 going.. and realized that this machine dosent have the 5.1 sound card.. :) doh! ;) | 03:25 |
| Dr_willis | well night all... | 03:25 |
| tommck_ | EJ - I've been thinking about trying to kill all of X and try to reinstall it or something | 03:25 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: in linux a partition have to be mounted to be accesible | 03:25 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: okay then... | 03:26 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: so does the live cd with you ntfs when it boot up | 03:26 |
| brujo | any ioctl to send keystrokes? | 03:26 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: ? | 03:26 |
| Pelo | !launchpad | 03:26 |
| ubottu | Launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/ | 03:26 |
| EJ | tommck: that may work ... if you do that try running x with the default vid card drivers and see if it will at least start up for you | 03:26 |
| EJ | tommck: if it does then you can go about installing the drivers for your vid card at that point | 03:26 |
| tommck_ | EJ - yeah, I think the next step is a braindead "vesa" video mode X setup, I guess | 03:26 |
| brujo | ioctl(console,TIOCSTI,key) ???? | 03:26 |
| brujo | is correct? | 03:27 |
| tommck_ | EJ - maybe I'll do something low-tech like a fluxbox wm | 03:27 |
| CoJaBo | I can't get mdadm to report when a disk in a RAID array fails, what do I need to get it to work? | 03:27 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: What did you say? | 03:27 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: I mean that when you run the installer and the partitioning you have to unmount the partition yu want to resize, within the partitionin program, with a menu entry or a right click | 03:27 |
| EJ | tommck: last time i had to deal with this was about 8 years ago ... and it seems that commands have changed a bit | 03:27 |
| tommck_ | EJ - yeah.. no big deal.. I'm going to have to get drastic on myself, I think.. | 03:28 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: Okay, so if I want 35 GB for Ubuntu, I just remove 35 GB from NTFS and partition the empty space to Ubuntu? | 03:28 |
| tommck_ | EJ - might even contemplate a complete reinstall | 03:28 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: but if u are just trying ubuntu you can also run wubi from the cd using windoes | 03:28 |
| EJ | tommck: it dosent set up propely on a fresh install ? | 03:28 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: Real Linux >>> Wubi Linux | 03:28 |
| tommck_ | EJ - haven't tried that yet - this is my mythtv backend.. didn't want to take it out for too long | 03:28 |
| EJ | tommck: did you install server and then add X ? | 03:28 |
| zsquareplusc | PeskyJ: hm, the file name sounds like it is a filter. doesn't it come with an install or readme? one would thing you are not the 1st user :-) | 03:28 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: correct, you free those 35 GB form the ntfs | 03:28 |
| lp59 | Salut | 03:28 |
| tommck_ | EJ - no, started with Desktop install | 03:29 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: ok | 03:29 |
| owen1 | my right+alt is not working. | 03:29 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: I'll try again | 03:29 |
| owen1 | any clue? | 03:29 |

| tripitakit | seyfarth: with server edition | 03:30 |
| Pelo | seyfarth, selling support | 03:30 |
| PeskyJ | zsquareplusc: I followed the instructions on foo2zjs.rkkda.com - I think you're right, it's a filter/converter but I don't know how CUPS selects it to be used, it doesn't seem to have a "which driver?" option anywhere | 03:30 |
| appserver | how to set ubuntu..to start in init 3? | 03:30 |

| lenswipe | anyone at all? | 03:31 |
| lenswipe | i just need to download the original apache file | 03:31 |
| tommck_ | EJ - yeah... we'll see :) Thanks a lot for the quick attention/help | 03:31 |

| lenswipe | nvm, | 03:32 |
| Out_Cold | i don't believe the usb hard drive is in my fdisk... | 03:32 |

| bluk | Hi, I have a dual screen setup and in nvidia settings i have it configured so i have 2 seperate x screens. It seems to be working fine, but i can't move my moue to the second screen. | 03:42 |
| bluk | Oddly enough if I vnc into the machine from a remote host I can move the mouse to the second screen and see it moving around! | 03:42 |
| bluk | any ideas? | 03:42 |
| EJ | lakitu; then find the process and kill the # associated with it ... kill <pid#> | 03:42 |
| lakitu | EJ, ok | 03:42 |
| uhsf | i installed everything for my webcam but why is there no /dev/video0? | 03:42 |
| bluk | also if i move the mouse to the second screen via vnc it gets locked on that second screen! | 03:42 |
| EJ | lakitu: or sudo kill <pid#> | 03:42 |
| Qebafhzn | tripitakit: yes, i think | 03:42 |
| bluk | until i move it to the main screen via vnc | 03:42 |
| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: the unmount command is there... | 03:42 |

| tripitakit | Qebafhzn: but it is there | 03:43 |

| samacs | can anybody help me? How can I unflag a windows damaged partition? | 03:47 |
| tripitakit | samacs: what you mean with unflag? | 03:48 |
| samacs | here's the thing... | 03:48 |
| tripitakit | samacs: anyway try ntfsfix | 03:48 |
| bluk | bluk: the monitors are side by side and sharing an edge. And the vnc thing and 2 vnc cnonection is irrelevant... i'm saying physically at the computer not over vnc i can't move the mouse to the second screen it just stops at the edge. But if i remote in to the comp via vnc i can move the mouse to the second montior from the remote host, just never from the actual comp | 03:48 |
| Daejeo | tripitakit: can i di something like : if i see subject "callme" i want to run some script callme,pl | 03:48 |
| om3 | miesco | 03:48 |
| lakitu | thanks, EJ, that worked | 03:49 |

| Daejeo | cool | 03:49 |
| samacs | I'm trying to install ubuntu from a LiveCD but got this error telling me that the live cd cannot resize anypartition, I googled it and found that when a partition is damaged MBR protects partitions from being changed, is that right? so partitions cannot be made by live cd | 03:49 |
| CarlFK | how do I turn on my fan full speed? | 03:49 |
| zsquareplusc | bluk: hm. well x2x allows you to move the mouse/keyboard from one to the other x server. but that shouldn't be needed for your setup. | 03:50 |
| tripitakit | samacs: u have to run ntfsfix on it | 03:50 |
| CarlFK | samacs: or just blow away all the win stuff and create new partitions | 03:50 |
| tripitakit | samacs: sorry for my english: use ntfsfix /dev/sda? (your partition dev) to fi it | 03:51 |
| tripitakit | *fix it | 03:51 |
| EJ | samacs: you could wipe out the partitions so the drive has no partitions and then do an install ... i have seen some disrto's lock up the partitions so Ubuntu cant install be, i simply wiped out all partitions and the let Ubuntu create on a clean drive | 03:51 |
| samacs | cannot lose that data | 03:52 |
| samacs | :S | 03:52 |

| tripitakit | samacs: no it is not right | 03:54 |
| Kopfsturm | People, plz, question: I set up "Background transparent" to true in xchat-gnome and now he not running! :( | 03:54 |
| samacs | how can I do it? | 03:54 |
| mhall119 | newer live cds should have the ntfs3g driver, letting you mount read/write | 03:54 |
| tripitakit | samacs: open a terminal pls | 03:54 |
| samacs | ntfsfix told that the partition is damaged and have to run chkdsk | 03:54 |
| samacs | ok | 03:54 |
| samacs | I have a terminal open | 03:54 |
| mhall119 | samacs: you should just be able to double-click the drive in Places->Computer | 03:55 |
| tripitakit | samacs: sudo fdisk -l | 03:55 |
| tripitakit | samacs: and note down then /dev/sda?of the pertition u want | 03:55 |
| samacs | got it | 03:55 |
| uhsf | l | 03:55 |

| threeseas | how do I print a man page? | 03:56 |
| tripitakit | samacs: sudo mkdir /media/win | 03:56 |
| ironfroggy_ | any thoughts on why -k to tar would still give me lots of "Cannot open: File Exists" errors? | 03:56 |
| uhsf | sony vaio integrated webcam anyone? | 03:56 |
| ironfroggy_ | when unpacking? | 03:56 |
| mhall119 | you know, I never even considered printing a man page before | 03:56 |
| samacs | got it tripitakit | 03:56 |
| jlumy | Vsn you get the man page on kde konqueror? | 03:56 |
| ironfroggy_ | threeseas: if you can pipe to your printer device, just man command > printer | 03:57 |
| csilk | threeseas, man ls | col -b | lp | 03:57 |
| tripitakit | samacs: sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda? /media/win (/dev/sda? is the actual sda with the right number) | 03:57 |
| samacs | got it | 03:57 |
| uhsf | linux got so loud about better webcam support in latest kernels but it's really all so much bs. it's even more broken than it was | 03:58 |
| tripitakit | samacs: then go to /media/win | 03:58 |
| samacs | now I can see windows files :D | 03:58 |
| Kopfsturm | People, plz, question: I set up "Background transparent" to true in xchat-gnome and now he not running! :( | 03:58 |

| tripitakit | samacs: partition have to be unmounted to be resized | 03:59 |
| samacs | yah | 03:59 |
| tripitakit | samacs: ok fine.. :) | 03:59 |

| samacs | gonna try to... | 03:59 |
| samacs | brb | 03:59 |
| mhall119 | uhsf: also, VAIO hardware sucks on standards | 03:59 |

| mewshi_ | mew! :D | 04:00 |
| mewshi_ | 8.10 is amazing! :D | 04:00 |
| samacs | thanks pal | 04:01 |
| thiebaude | i cant say what's the best | 04:01 |
| mhall119 | om3: depends on what your needs are | 04:01 |
| tripitakit | ur welcome | 04:01 |
| thiebaude | yup | 04:01 |
| om3 | mp3 | 04:01 |
| mhall119 | no, I meant do you want something to just play a file, manage a library, integrate with your iPod, etc | 04:01 |
| Kopfsturm | <moyote>, now i sit in simply xchat, but i want xchat-gnome, but after my setups he not running... | 04:01 |
| tripitakit | good evening/night/moring to all .. time to rest for me | 04:01 |
| om3 | ipod yea | 04:01 |
| moyote | Kopfsturm, have you tried closing it and restarting it? | 04:02 |
| mhall119 | default rhythmbox should work with you ipod | 04:02 |
| mhall119 | amarok too, I think | 04:02 |
| mhall119 | or songbird | 04:02 |
| mewshi_ | I have a question | 04:02 |
| mewshi_ | I have a dual-core processor | 04:02 |
| mewshi_ | are there any programs I would find useful? | 04:02 |
| mhall119 | try Rhythmbox if you're using gnome, and Amarok if KDE | 04:03 |
| Kopfsturm | <moyote>, yes, and restart and reinstal and fully delete and reinstal again... | 04:03 |
| Kopfsturm | >_< | 04:03 |
| thiebaude | newshi:what kind of programs? | 04:03 |
| moyote | Kopfsturm, why don't you use just xchat instead of xchat-gnome? | 04:03 |
| mewshi_ | Things to deal with dual-core procs | 04:03 |
| thiebaude | mewshi | 04:03 |
| thiebaude | amarok works with gnome | 04:04 |
| Kopfsturm | <moyote>, Hmm... I like xchat-gnome:) | 04:04 |
| mhall119 | yes, but amarok uses the KDE libraries, doesn't it? | 04:04 |
| mhall119 | or QT at least | 04:04 |
| mewshi_ | mhall119, the problem is...? | 04:04 |
| mewshi_ | I like amarok | 04:04 |
| mewshi_ | *almost* as much as songbird :) | 04:04 |
| thiebaude | kde and gnome are inter-changable | 04:04 |
| Kopfsturm | <moyote>, maybe U know, how delete settings-file? | 04:04 |
| mewshi_ | songbird is made of win :) | 04:04 |
| PeskyJ | xchat is great... my only complaints with it so far are that ctrl+tab doesn't switch between tabs/channels (and you can't configure it to do that, or I haven't figured out how to yet) and that /leave isn't smart enough to know you mean the current channel tab | 04:05 |
| crakrjak | Hi all, i just upgraded my machine to 6 GB of ram, 32 bit 8.04 install, i believe i needed to recompile my kernel with PAE enabled which i did and no go, now i suspect i need to enable HIGHMEM64 also, does that sound right? | 04:05 |
| mhall119 | thiebaude: yes, I just don't see a need to import all of kdelib if Rhythmbox works for someone | 04:05 |
| Stargazer | Is there a way to make gnome-panel's windows... bars... without icon ? | 04:05 |
| mewshi_ | so, are there any programs I would find useful for handling a dual-core system? :) | 04:05 |
| thiebaude | i agree, mhall119 | 04:05 |
| ardchoille | PeskyJ: what about alt+1, alt+2, etc ? | 04:05 |
| threeseas | whats wrong with teh following: cat fileattribs.txt | grep 2008-11-15 | ./ I don't want the second pipe but instead the alternative grep pattern | 04:05 |
| _raven_ | could someone take a look at a script and answer me a question? | 04:06 |
| gavagai | mewshi_, the gnome pan applet for frequency scaling lets you change how the cores behave | 04:06 |
| mhall119 | Stargazer: you want to do what now? | 04:06 |
| PeskyJ | ardchoille: yeah, that works... but the keys aren't configurable | 04:06 |
| moyote | Kopfsturm, installing xchat-gnome to see. | 04:06 |
| mewshi_ | Well, I already have that going :) | 04:06 |
| _raven_ | i want to take chunks of this eee gnome customizer script and run it on a non-eee system, which is fine for fonts and things | 04:06 |
| ardchoille | PeskyJ: true | 04:06 |
| kiopes | raven: show the script | 04:06 |
| crakrjak | three: whats the ./ for? | 04:06 |
| _raven_ | but i want to add OSD notifications for my wifi | 04:06 |
| _raven_ | and i need to know if they will work :p | 04:06 |
| mewshi_ | is there something I can use to do *both* with the same button? | 04:06 |
| threeseas | crakrjak: to output directory line in the file (the file is an ls -l output) | 04:07 |
| Stargazer | Mhall119, say like Transmission has it's little lever... it's icon is right next to it's name in gnome-panel (for a window), and nautilus has it's little filing system icon next to it's name... i want to remove that icon. | 04:07 |
| === nintendork32 is now known as nintendork87 | ||
| Kopfsturm | <moyote>, simply set checkbox to true in Background Transparent. After this xc-g exit and now not running... | 04:08 |
| crakrjak | three: ./ is a directory and you are trying to run it, maybe im missing something | 04:08 |
| mewshi_ | so, any ideas? | 04:08 |
| mhall119 | Stargazer: oh, I have no idea, it may be a theme option, or something you can access in gconf | 04:08 |
| PeskyJ | ardchoille: I'm too used to windows apps, heh :) actually there's one other thing that's a bit annoying, it doesn't nick-match unless your nick is a whole word, for example followed by a - or something and it doesn't match | 04:08 |
| threeseas | crakrjak: to output directory lines in the file (the file is an ls -l output to file upon which is given to grep ) | 04:09 |
| arquebus | anyone know how to enable global menu in gnome?\ | 04:09 |
| Stargazer | Ardchoille... same one from tip.it ..? | 04:09 |
| moyote | Kopfsturm: well, i haven't any idea, I'm using xchat-gnome and I set the transparency but it works here. | 04:09 |
| ardchoille | Stargazer: ? | 04:09 |
| PeskyJ | ardchoille: other than that it's fantastic.. way better than anything I ever used in windows | 04:09 |
| Kopfsturm | <moyote>, >_< | 04:09 |
| ardchoille | PeskyJ: Preferences > Input box > Automatice nick completiion | 04:09 |
| Kopfsturm | <moyote>, wtf... | 04:09 |
| Stargazer | Ardchoille: are you the same one from tip.it ? | 04:09 |
| ardchoille | Stargazer: no | 04:10 |
| PeskyJ | ardchoille--> some people do this | 04:10 |
| Kopfsturm | <moyote>, maybe my video card?... | 04:10 |
| Stargazer | Oh | 04:10 |
| Kopfsturm | But other apps working normally... | 04:10 |
| Kopfsturm | and compiz working norm... | 04:10 |
| Kudi | how do i make a straigt line conky without messing with the offsets the whole time | 04:10 |
| moyote | Kopfsturm: I don't know. Can you unset the transparency? This is why I use xchat, it's more powerful with more options. | 04:10 |
| texta | hey guy's. | 04:10 |
| PeskyJ | ardchoille: did you see how it wasn't highlighted? | 04:11 |
| ardchoille | PeskyJ: yep | 04:11 |

| Kopfsturm | <moyote>, What do U mean under A D? | 04:12 |
| threeseas | argh... bash see the alternative symbol fo rgrep as a pipe | 04:12 |
| arquebus | thiebaude- some guy told me to get new themes in gnome you have to enable the global menu, I dont know what it is | 04:13 |
| moyote | Kopfsturm: yes, compiz is an accerlerated desktop. I don't know is that makes a difference. It means you have visual effects turned on. | 04:13 |
| Kudi | how do i make a straigt line conky without messing with the offsets the whole time | 04:13 |
| devslashnull | i have 4 partitions on my 160GB hard drive 1. Linux main partition 2. empty NTFS partition 3. empty Fat32 partition 4. linux swap. is there a way to easily merge partitions 2 and 3 without messing up the boot loader | 04:13 |

| mhall119 | Kudi: I'm not sure what you're asking about | 04:13 |
| arquebus | thiebaude: ok, I'll look into that | 04:13 |
| moyote | Kopfsturm: it it working? | 04:14 |

| * moyote switches back to xchat | 04:14 | |
| arquebus | thiebaude: good idea | 04:14 |
| thiebaude | i got xchat and pidgin | 04:15 |
| sanjiro | I installed Ubuntu 8.10 from live cd, I setup my initial user ... now I'm running aptitude and its asking for root.. do I have to setup root seperately? This is odd. | 04:15 |
| sanjiro | ah.. sudo passwd root | 04:16 |
| PeskyJ | pidgin sucks for irc, but seems pretty good for IM... I don't really think IRC and IM are similar enough to use the same interface for both | 04:16 |
| lyken2 | does anyone dual boot with windows on this channel | 04:16 |
| Kopfsturm | sanjiro, no, why root? U have Ur pass for all. | 04:16 |
| thiebaude | PeskyJ: i tried irissi | 04:16 |
| Kopfsturm | Pidgin good for ICQ!:) | 04:16 |
| sanjiro | lyken2: i do | 04:16 |
| PeskyJ | thiebaude: I used to use irssi, didn't really get along with it though... it was good for leaving running in a screen session though :) | 04:17 |
| Kopfsturm | xchat for IRC, Pidgin for ICQ and all:) | 04:17 |
| moyote | lyken2, yes, I do, but I use separate hds for it. | 04:17 |
| lyken2 | sajira: do you use firefox on both operating systems | 04:17 |
| sanjiro | what's the quickest way to open new terminal? | 04:17 |
| joot | lyken2: Ido | 04:17 |
| thiebaude | PeskyJ: it was too much for me | 04:17 |
| PeskyJ | Kopfsturm: yeah! :) | 04:17 |
| moyote | Kopfsturm, are u transparent? :-)) | 04:18 |
| Kopfsturm | <moyote>, Nonono, I scared to set up this thg:) | 04:18 |
| tecnicodpc | I bought a acer ASPIRE ONE .... And it came with Win XP .... I installed UBUNTU 8.10 ... Everything seems to work ... but not my wireless device .... why ...????? Is there some kind of codes i need to download ...???? Can someone Plz. help me ...???? | 04:18 |
| thiebaude | xchat is easiler than pidgin | 04:18 |
| PeskyJ | sanjiro: don't set a password for root... instead use sudo all the time when you want to execute commands as root. If you want to execute lots in a row, you may want to do "sudo su" | 04:18 |
| moyote | Kopfsturm, ah, come on, don't be shy. :-)). Although I don't use it either. | 04:18 |
| lyken2 | ok, for those of you who of you who use mozilla try adding about:config to the url. I found doubleclick.net as a dnshost in mozilla | 04:18 |
| wizzer | ah all updated to 8.10 | 04:19 |
| Kopfsturm | <moyote>, But if xchat like xchat-gnome will broke?;) | 04:19 |
| lyken2 | I thought double click.net was for tracking. I is only in windows. | 04:19 |
| binskipy2u | hey guys i have a compiz question, if i get it set up exactly how i like it..and i goto appearance and disable all affects.. if i go back there to click on custom effects, will it be as i left it? | 04:19 |
| binskipy2u | or will i have to re-set it all up again | 04:19 |
| moyote | Kopfsturm, well, unlikely that xchat is broken, maybe something on your system, dependencies, who knows? | 04:19 |
| wizzer | isn't doubleclick adware or something | 04:20 |

| digifor | What is causing this? | 04:23 |
| uman | HI everyone. IM in really big trouble. I powered off my ubuntu 8.10 box without closing down vmware and now i cant open my xp virtual machine. I keep on getting the followin error. Please help. Thanks | 04:23 |

| Kopfsturm | <moyote>, sometimes terminal, sometimes instal\remove app. | 04:23 |
| uman | If this virtual machine is already in use, press the "Cancel" button to avoid damaging it. If this virtual machine is not in use, press the "Take Ownership" button to obtain ownership of it. | 04:23 |

| zcat[1] | deigel: adobe quite frequently change the download which breaks the package because the md5sum no longer matches.. I think there's instructions for installing it manually somewhere, basically download the tar.gz, extract libflash.so and copy it to the right directory | 04:25 |
| IdleOne | tensei: gksudo nautilus | 04:26 |
| cali_ | kopfsturm: i got the drivers and ndiswrapper installed but the "Windows wireless drivers" program dose not show up under admin or preferences | 04:26 |
| zcat[1] | !flash | 04:26 |
| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (a recent version for !Dapper is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 04:26 |
| moyote | Kopfsturm, try using synaptic to uninstall xchat-gnome and then reinstall it and see what happens | 04:26 |
| kbrosnan | lyken2: Mozilla does not track individual people, it does keep some overall stats. not sure if the ubuntu builds have that | 04:26 |
| Gr33n3gg | Anyone have a Demonoid.com account? | 04:26 |
| |ns|nR8 | devslashnull, google fix grub | 04:26 |
| Kopfsturm | <moyote>, Not need, now I like to use this xchat;) | 04:26 |
| lyken2 | kbrosnan: ok, I hope your right. | 04:26 |
| moyote | Kopfsturm, excellent. | 04:27 |
| Kopfsturm | <cali_>, she is installed? o_O | 04:27 |
| Clinteger | hey guys | 04:27 |
| Clinteger | im using vista, and i want to dualboot | 04:27 |
| threeseas | is it possible to get a directory listing that shows full path to each file? | 04:27 |
| tensei | IdleOne, Thank you | 04:27 |
| zcat[1] | btw gnash sucks majorly, swfdec works a whole lot better | 04:27 |
| joot | zcat[1]: where is there a post install link for ubuntu 8.10 | 04:27 |
| Clinteger | so is it okay to resize an ntfs partition or is it too much of a hassle? | 04:27 |
| IdleOne | devslashnull: use the Ubuntu live cd run gparted and merge the two partitions, if you plan on merging the ntfs with the linux format to the linux filesystem ( ext3 default for ubuntu ) | 04:27 |
| IdleOne | tensei: no problem | 04:27 |
| mhall119 | Clinteger: it will take a while if it's a big partition | 04:28 |
| theJKH | Hey guys all of a sudden my cam didnt work in ubuntu it did perfectly after i used easycam2, so i uninstalled esycam2 and im wandering where i can find a DEB for it out on the net to install eycam2 | 04:28 |
| lyken2 | Clinteger: ubuntu is the easiest linux to use. Mostly just click next. WARNING becareful with the partitions | 04:28 |
| theJKH | can anyone help me out? | 04:28 |
| Kopfsturm | My eyes and brain... so a lot of words... *trying fast reading and translating* | 04:28 |
| Clinteger | lyken2, i've used ubuntu before :P | 04:28 |
| PeskyJ | Clinteger: the ubuntu installer will resize it for you, you can choose how much spoace it leaves the partition with | 04:28 |
| abhishek | @Clinteger: Resizing partitions in the installer... not fun. | 04:28 |
| Clinteger | abhishek.. not fun? why is that | 04:28 |
| cali_ | ndiswrapper is installed under synaptic package manager but dose not show up under sys preferences or sys admin | 04:28 |
| uman | HI everyone. IM in really big trouble. I powered off my ubuntu 8.10 box without closing down vmware and now i cant open my xp virtual machine. I keep on getting the followin error. Please help. Thanks | 04:28 |
| abhishek | It takes long | 04:28 |
| uman | This virtual machine appears to be in use. | 04:28 |
| uman | If this virtual machine is already in use, press the "Cancel" button to avoid damaging it. If this virtual machine is not in use, press the "Take Ownership" button to obtain ownership of it. | 04:28 |
| zcat[1] | joot: halfway down the !flash page there's instructions for extracting and installing the plugin manually, that should work on anything from hardy to intrepid... | 04:28 |
| abhishek | I gave up after an hour and just formatted the drive... :\ | 04:29 |
| IdleOne | uman: take ownership | 04:29 |
| joot | zcat[1]: thanks | 04:29 |
| Spanglegluppet | hey guys, i'm trying to get lexulous (scrabulous) to work in ubuntu 8.10 using firefox 3.0.3...any help? | 04:29 |
| mhall119 | uman, does vmware create a lock file somewhere? | 04:29 |
| PeskyJ | uman: there's probably a lock file somewhere.. try in /var | 04:29 |
| abhishek | @Clinteger: You can resize the ntfs partition from within Vista I think | 04:29 |
| Clinteger | abhishek, will it f*** stuff up? | 04:29 |
| Kopfsturm | <cali_>, try to click right button on Programs (Or how it on Eng Gnome?) and setup. may Ur app not check to true to visible in list. | 04:29 |
| tritium | Clinteger: let the installer do it for you. | 04:29 |
| Clinteger | k | 04:30 |
| Genius314 | I have an iPod 3G nano, and it keeps disconnecting in Ubuntu 8.10. I managed to get it to work in 8.04 with the help of a guide, but now this isn't working. Has anyone gotten a 3G nano to work in 8.10? | 04:30 |
| Kopfsturm | <cali_>, or try run under terminal. | 04:30 |
| theJKH | Anyone know eher a DEB package for EASYCAM2 is? | 04:30 |
| abhishek | @Clinteger: You have a single HD with extra space? Installer is good enough. | 04:30 |
| theJKH | Im tring to find it but i cant | 04:30 |
| Clinteger | abhishek, ok | 04:30 |
| zcat[1] | just be aware that after you get flash working, things like "XP antivirus 2009" will start working, even though they can't do any damage they do still trap you in the page and nothing short of killing the browser seems to get rid of it | 04:30 |
| Clinteger | abhishek, its just my friend told me that its a hassle to resize ntfs partitions, and it can cause problems | 04:30 |
| abhishek | @Clinteger: Multiple HDs or multiple partitions... don't go in unprepared. | 04:30 |
| Clinteger | well this is just 1 partition :) | 04:30 |
| Clinteger | abhishek, wait, i do have 2 drives | 04:31 |
| abhishek | :| | 04:31 |
| zcat[1] | Clinteger: it can take hours, and you MUST NOT turn off the machine until it's finished... | 04:31 |
| Clinteger | abhishek, well im only installing on one of them | 04:31 |
| uman | mhall119 pesky yeah there are .lck files but if i delete them and try to open it it says that it cant start cuz the filesystem has been modified so i have to copy back the deleted lck files in the oflder where the virtual machine is. havent checked the var fodler though | 04:31 |
| Clinteger | not moving my home to second drive or anything hehe | 04:31 |
| PeskyJ | Clinteger: ubuntu installer is pretty good, can't figure out some complex stuff in guided mode, but for simply resizing a partition to make room it will be fine | 04:31 |
| Clinteger | zcat[1], yeah, i understand | 04:31 |
| Clinteger | PeskyJ, thanks a lot :D | 04:31 |
| brujo | fuck | 04:31 |
| Clinteger | gonna go do this | 04:31 |
| Clinteger | cya guys | 04:31 |
| FloodBot2 | Clinteger: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:31 |
| zcat[1] | Clinteger: mush safer to resize the partition in windows first and install to the free space | 04:31 |
| tritium | !language | brujo | 04:31 |
| ubottu | brujo: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 04:31 |
| abhishek | yeah, what zcat said. | 04:31 |
| cali_ | Kipfsturm how do i run ndiswrapper in terminal | 04:32 |
| brujo | i cant send ioctl chars to program running on X | 04:32 |
| brujo | :S | 04:32 |
| brujo | anyone know how? | 04:32 |
| gavagai | are virtual terminals turned on by default? i can't use mine. this is on a laptop. | 04:32 |
| abhishek | so, do we have any experts here on ATI drivers? | 04:32 |
| tritium | brujo: watch your language | 04:32 |
| zcat[1] | actually, much safer to just buy a second drive and not mess with resizing at all ;) | 04:32 |
| IdleOne | !ask | abhishek | 04:32 |
| PeskyJ | Clinteger: oh.. if you defragment your windows drive before resizing I think it might be much quicker | 04:32 |
| ubottu | abhishek: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 04:32 |
| Kopfsturm | <cali_>, run terminal and write ndiswrap and press tab. | 04:32 |
| lyken2 | anyone know what toys to use for making a desktop look cool | 04:32 |
| Clinteger | PeskyJ, yeah defrag finished like 20 minutes ago :0 | 04:33 |
| lukeekblad | Hey, wasup guys>? Hey I just downloaded the last.fm program thing but I need to build it, I dont know how though. I read the readme and it says to build it: ./configure && make what's that soposed to mean? Can someone please write me a code to put in the terminal that will build it or something? that would be awesome | 04:33 |
| mhall119 | abhishek: I don't think there is such a thing as an ATI driver expert | 04:33 |
| Kopfsturm | <cali_>, if Ur terminal automatical set "ndiswrapper" - U have this app. Press Enter. | 04:33 |
| mhall119 | lyken2: Compiz-fusion, avant-window-navigator | 04:33 |
| PeskyJ | lyken2: I like the scaler picker... alt+shift+up :) | 04:33 |
| DiiPhantom | how i know what version of java i have? | 04:33 |
| meoblast001 | how come netplay in my Gens is greyed out | 04:33 |
| brujo | is possible to use ioctl(fd, TIOCSTI,char) for a graphical program? | 04:34 |
| mhall119 | DiiPhantom: open a terminal and type: java --version | 04:34 |
| cali_ | Kopfsturm Ok done | 04:34 |
| IdleOne | lukeekblad: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware read this it should help you | 04:34 |
| abhishek | My screen looks like bad TV reception... I tried installing the restricted driver but that messes up--can't even login. I got the package from ATI website and that fixes nothing. My question is, what works and how can I get it? :( | 04:34 |
| lyken2 | mhall119: how does one get the side bar. | 04:34 |
| abhishek | I've got an ATI Radeon 2600m | 04:34 |
| mhall119 | side bar? | 04:34 |
| mhall119 | like the Vista side bar? | 04:34 |
| DiiPhantom | mhall119: ok i see alot of stuff there, 4.2? | 04:35 |
| Jordan_U | abhishek: I assume it works in another OS? | 04:35 |
| abhishek | it works in Vista. | 04:35 |
| mhall119 | DiiPhantom: paste it all | 04:35 |
| abhishek | :\ | 04:35 |
| abhishek | I had it working previously under a Wubi install of Ubuntu 8.04 | 04:35 |
| lyken2 | mhall119: something like that. I think damn small linux has one to. | 04:35 |
| abhishek | but it's no longer working. | 04:35 |
| abhishek | on my fresh install of 8.04 | 04:35 |
| Jordan_U | !pastebin | DiiPhantom | 04:35 |
| ubottu | DiiPhantom: 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) | 04:35 |
| mhall119 | lyken2: you can try gdesklets, you can put them all over the desktop, not just a side bar | 04:35 |
| theJKH | so does anyone know where i can download a Debian fie for Easycam2?? | 04:36 |
| brujo | is possible to use ioctl(fd, TIOCSTI,char) for a graphical program? | 04:36 |
| lyken2 | mhall119: thanks. Synaptic right. | 04:36 |
| tritium | !repeat | brujo | 04:36 |
| ubottu | brujo: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 04:36 |
| mhall119 | lyken2: yeah | 04:36 |
| brujo | jeje | 04:36 |
| lyken2 | mhall119: all good,your a great help | 04:37 |
| mhall119 | lyken2: personally I hardly ever see my desktop, always have too many apps running | 04:37 |
| brujo | !repeat | tritium | 04:37 |
| mhall119 | no problem | 04:37 |
| ubottu | tritium: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 04:37 |
| digifor | abhishek, did you have a gui with the livecd? | 04:37 |
| lyken2 | mhall119: yeah, but I got tired of seeing everyone else's nice desktops. I want to compete | 04:37 |
| abhishek | yeah... blurry there too. | 04:37 |
| mhall119 | lyken2: good luck with that | 04:38 |
| uman | Anyone here have an ipod touch ? (2nd or 1st gen?) | 04:38 |
| Kopfsturm | no | 04:39 |
| Spanglegluppet | uman: yes, 1st gen | 04:39 |
| abhishek | I'd try to install 8.10 and see if it fixes my problems but the installer for 8.10 doesn't even recognize my keyboard. | 04:39 |
| Batsmasher | I have no sound with Intrepid, I installed with wubi, any ideas? | 04:40 |
| digifor | abhishek, I was able to insert the livecd > hit F4 >Safe video mode> then booted... I got a good gui.. | 04:40 |
| abhishek | @batsmasher: laptop? asus/lenovo? | 04:40 |
| Batsmasher | no, it's on my desktop? | 04:40 |
| Batsmasher | :) | 04:40 |
| wastrel | any way to get this DVD to work? playback is garbled on my system | 04:40 |
| Genius314 | My iPod nano 3G keeps connecting and disconnecting. Has anyone gotten it to connect in 8.10? I need help with it. | 04:40 |
| abhishek | what sound card? | 04:40 |
| tecnicodpc | I bought a acer ASPIRE ONE .... And it came with Win XP .... I installed UBUNTU 8.10 ... Everything seems to work ... but not my wireless device .... why ...????? Is there some kind of codes i need to download ...???? Can someone Plz. help me ...???? | 04:41 |
| Batsmasher | yamaha... cant remember model | 04:41 |
| PeskyJ | Batsmasher: I noticed the sound in ubuntu is really quiet compared to windows... I think that's already logged as a bug | 04:41 |
| metal1 | ya | 04:41 |
| Gr33n3gg | tecniodpc: Google your problem, there is tons of threads about that | 04:41 |
| digifor | abhishek, ...then I mounted the Ubuntu disk > then in terminal> sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /media/disk/etc/X11/xorg.conf | 04:41 |
| pirate | very new to a linux based os need help installing a theme | 04:41 |
| PeskyJ | techman224: ahh it was you asking about the aspire... there's a forum post all about getting the wireless working on it | 04:42 |
| Batsmasher | @Peskyj lol, never thought of that | 04:42 |
| sebsebseb | pirate: gnome-look.org | 04:42 |
| digifor | abhishek, that worked for me. | 04:42 |
| tecnicodpc | ok Thanks Gr33n3gg | 04:42 |
| mhall119 | pirate: do you already have a theme? | 04:42 |
| sebsebseb | pirate: also blubuntu may be a nice one to get from synaptic | 04:42 |
| pirate | seb went there and no help to a newbie | 04:42 |
| abhishek | @digifor: to fix the ATI issue or the installer issue? I asked two questions, lol | 04:43 |
| PeskyJ | tecnicodpc: um that was meant for you, sorry techman224 | 04:43 |
| pirate | hal the one thats under ubunto | 04:43 |
| mhall119 | pirate: you download a theme from gnome-look.org, and then install it from the Appearance program | 04:43 |
| pirate | how | 04:43 |
| sebsebseb | I made a 1GB swap partition and I also have a 4mb or so swap partition, because of the way my partition set up is done, I thought may as well use that 4mb for something. I also think this computer is not using any swap, how to turn it on? | 04:43 |
| pirate | ok let me try once again ok | 04:43 |
| sebsebseb | swapon did nothing | 04:44 |
| sebsebseb | and | 04:44 |
| sebsebseb | well no errrors for swapon | 04:44 |
| digifor | abhishek, that gave me a workable gui | 04:44 |
| thiebaude | sebsebseb: did you check system rsources | 04:44 |
| sebsebseb | and nothing else in terminal | 04:44 |
| zcat[1] | 'no errors' usually means it worked | 04:44 |
| PeskyJ | how does the installer decide how much space to use for swap? it seems pretty made that it created 9GiB of swap when I have 3.5GiB of ram, and on another machine it made 1GiB swap when I only have 1GiB RAM | 04:44 |
| sebsebseb | dmesg | grep swap just came up with like a manual type thing | 04:45 |
| sebsebseb | thiebaude: where? | 04:45 |
| joeb3_ | sebsebseb, run top. does it show swap ? | 04:45 |
| === The_JoKeR is now known as SplinTer0616_ | ||
| thiebaude | sebsebseb: in system monitor | 04:45 |
| joot | sebsebseb: I think your swap is toooo small and should be around 512 mb | 04:45 |
| abhishek | @digifor: well, I'll try that then | 04:45 |
| sebsebseb | Pesky: indeed 9GB of swap is crazy, I would recommend about 1GB in your case | 04:45 |
| zcat[1] | general rule of thumb swap = 2* ram up to a gig or two, swap=ram once you go beyond that | 04:45 |
| thiebaude | sebsebseb: system.system monitor.memory and swap history | 04:46 |
| sebsebseb | joot: I have two now, a 1GB swap and the small 4mb or so | 04:46 |
| digifor | I just need sound. Something messed up with pulseaudio after upgrade to 8.10 | 04:46 |
| joljam | i need help connecting wireless | 04:46 |
| joljam | from command line | 04:46 |
| sebsebseb | digifor: ok try this killall pulseaudio | 04:46 |
| thiebaude | you have a swap file,sebseseb | 04:46 |
| joot | sebsebseb: not sure what the 4mb would do | 04:46 |
| thiebaude | !swap | 04:46 |
| ubottu | swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 04:46 |
| sebsebseb | joot: just space that it insists to have, because of how my partition set up is done | 04:46 |
| sebsebseb | the 4mb | 04:46 |
| sebsebseb | thought may as well use it for something, plus to do a 1GB swap | 04:47 |
| Gr33n3gg | joljam: GIYF | 04:47 |
| sebsebseb | so two swap partitions | 04:47 |
| zcat[1] | once you get past 4G you hardly need bother with swap except as somewhere to hibernate to | 04:47 |
| joljam | what does that mean... GIYF | 04:47 |
| thiebaude | i thought swap was when you run low on memory ram | 04:47 |
| Gr33n3gg | Google is your friend | 04:47 |
| pirate | whats the differnce in gtk and gdm themes | 04:47 |
| Gr33n3gg | Instead of wasting our time, google your problem. | 04:47 |
| cellfish | anyone know how to get gtkpod to play music? I can sync and all but whenever i try to play music, it doesn't do a thing | 04:47 |
| Baatti | for some reason, my shell script isn't running. I'm getting this message: bash: ./scriptone.sh: usr/bin/sh: bad interpreter: No such file or directory | 04:47 |
| joljam | I TRIED UNSUCCESSFULLY WITH IT | 04:48 |
| thiebaude | pirate: i think gdm is login-manager | 04:48 |
| cellfish | installed xmms2, replaced the xmms command in gtkpod with xmms2 and it no longer gives me an error ... it does nothing instead | 04:48 |
| Baatti | the first line in my script is: #!/bin/sh | 04:48 |
| joljam | I cam here for help | 04:48 |
| tritium | joljam: no need for all-caps, please | 04:48 |
| joljam | can anyone help me | 04:48 |
| digifor | sebsebseb, strange "pulseaudio: no process killed" | 04:48 |
| PeskyJ | 9GiB for swap seems pretty high.. I haven't even seen the RAM use go much above 1GiB | 04:48 |
| Baatti | caps is cruise control for cool | 04:48 |
| Gr33n3gg | joljaml: You didnt provide any details of your problem. | 04:48 |
| joljam | caps all was inadvertent | 04:48 |
| thiebaude | pirate: gtk is what you need | 04:48 |
| zcat[1] | 9g for swap is just silly... | 04:48 |
| joljam | I cannot connect to the wireless network | 04:49 |
| thiebaude | wow, and i just have 521mb of ram | 04:49 |
| joljam | how can i detect the networks in my range | 04:49 |
| Baatti | joljam what version of ubuntu you running? | 04:49 |
| Gr33n3gg | joljam: Well, what wireless card are you using? | 04:49 |
| Miesco | om3? | 04:49 |
| joljam | how can I do that from command line.. I am running 8/.04 | 04:49 |
| PeskyJ | zcat[1]: I thought that maybe the installer just uses a fixed percentage of the disc space or something. | 04:49 |
| Baatti | joljam what wireless card? | 04:49 |
| sebsebseb | joeb3: after running top: Swap: 0k total, 0k used, 0k free, 362916k cached | 04:50 |
| zcat[1] | PeskyJ: no idea. It's probably based on the phase of the moon or something... | 04:50 |
| joljam | is there any command from command line which gives me the type of wireless card | 04:50 |
| wiwin | a | 04:50 |
| tensei | is there any reason ALT+F2 shouldn't work in ubuntu 8.04 after i've removed the panels | 04:50 |
| Baatti | hrm | 04:50 |
| Gr33n3gg | omg... | 04:50 |
| zcat[1] | sebsebseb: 'swapon /dev/sda5' or whatever partition swap is on | 04:50 |
| Gr33n3gg | joljam: Do you know the brand/model of your wireless card? | 04:50 |
| tritium | joljam: is it a pci card? If so, use "lspci" | 04:51 |
| JamesJr | If anyone in here owns a forum or website and wants to earn money please send me a message | 04:51 |
| PeskyJ | zcat[1]: heh.. well that was a "use entire disc" option on a 300G drive, I've never seen it use any of the sqap yet | 04:51 |
| zcat[1] | sebsebseb: and to make it persistent put it in /etc/fstab | 04:51 |
| tritium | JamesJr: please don't advertise here | 04:51 |
| joljam | think its a lspci | 04:51 |
| Baatti | heh | 04:51 |
| Baatti | joljam type lspci in your terminal | 04:51 |
| tensei | is there a way to find out which command to use to run an application? | 04:51 |
| Daejeo | Starting VNC server: no displays configured [ OK ] | 04:51 |

| Baatti | tensei try ./<filename> | 04:52 |

| zcat[1] | sebsebseb: I wouldn't bother with the 4M. | 04:52 |
| DiiPhantom | mhall119: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/72704/ | 04:52 |
| tritium | joljam: good, that's easily supported with the ipw2200 kernel module | 04:52 |
| joljam | ok tritium | 04:52 |
| sebsebseb | zcat[1]: well I thought may as well use it for something, an actsaul partiton that is 4mb what's the point? a swap though why not | 04:52 |
| Baatti | joljam, you should upgrade to 8.10, intrepid has a ton of built in wireless help | 04:52 |
| mhall119 | DiiPhantom: looks like you don't have any version of Java installed | 04:52 |
| tritium | joljam: "lsmod | grep ipw2200 | 04:52 |

| DiiPhantom | how i install the newest one or whichever? | 04:53 |
| sebsebseb | zcat[1]: what you mean map out? | 04:53 |

| tensei | Baatti, in terminal? | 04:53 |
| joljam | tritium...http://paste.ubuntu.com/72709/ | 04:53 |
| Baatti | my shell script won't run: the first line in the script is #!/bin/sh I'm getting an error of: bash: ./scriptone.sh: usr/bin/sh: bad interpreter: No such file or directory | 04:53 |
| zcat[1] | sebsebseb: I don't really know how swap works, but I figure there's some sort of mapping saying where a page is, real ram or in swap... | 04:54 |
| Baatti | tensei what about terminal? | 04:54 |
| mhall119 | DiiPhantom: from the terminal: sudo apt-get install sun-java6 | 04:54 |
| Genius314 | My iPod nano 3G keeps diconnecting/reconnecting in 8.10. Is there anything extra I have to do to get it to work? | 04:54 |
| zcat[1] | ... 4M is so small it's a joke. I wouldn't even bother enabling it | 04:54 |
| mhall119 | DiiPhantom: from the terminal: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre | 04:54 |
| tensei | Baatti, I got ride of gnome panels and installed AWN, i'm trying to find a way to add programs to the launcher, but I don't know how to figure out the command to run them.. | 04:54 |
| unop | Baatti, your error message contradicts your shebang - the error message says usr/bin/sh is not found - you're missing the preceding / | 04:55 |
| Daejeo | Starting VNC server: no displays configured [ OK ] how can i configure the display? | 04:55 |
| tritium | joljam: excellent. The modele is loaded | 04:55 |
| joljam | tritium were u able to figure anything out | 04:55 |
| Baatti | unop should the first line of my script.sh be: #!usr/bin/sh ??? | 04:55 |
| meoblast001 | why wont netplay work in gens... it's greyed out | 04:55 |
| tritium | joljam: please type "iwconfig" and see if any of the interfaces list wireless extensions | 04:55 |
| wastrel | Baatti: ls -l /bin/sh | 04:56 |
| mhall119 | Baatti: no | 04:56 |
| SJr|Nbook | !version | 04:56 |
| ubottu | To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy <package> » | 04:56 |
| unop | Baatti, no, it should be #!/usr/bin/sh | 04:56 |
| Baatti | I tried that as well, and it didn't work either | 04:56 |
| wastrel | no it shouldn't since /usr/bin/sh doesn't exist | 04:56 |
| Gr33n3gg | joljam: Or type iwconfig <interface> scanning to see APs in the area | 04:56 |
| unop | Baatti, or #!/bin/sh rather | 04:56 |
| joljam | tritium...http://paste.ubuntu.com/72710/ | 04:57 |

| Baatti | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2008-11-12 21:19 /bin/sh -> dash | 04:57 |
| Baatti | << when I do ls -l /bin/sh | 04:57 |

| unop | Baatti, right, so your shebang has to call that then | 04:57 |
| tritium | joljam: ok, eth1 is your wireless interface, but it says the radio is off. Does it have a physical switch? | 04:57 |
| === nintendork32 is now known as ^sk8rboy^ | ||
| Baatti | so then, #!/bin/sh | 04:57 |
| joljam | nothing I know of | 04:58 |
| Anacranom | ok, that proves it,,, 8.10 is a train-wreck for n00bs trying to convert to linux! | 04:58 |
| wastrel | #!/bin/sh should work | 04:58 |
| joljam | tritium | 04:58 |
| Baatti | joljam you might have to update your blacklist | 04:58 |
| sebsebseb | zcat[1]: sda6 by the looks of it is my 1GB swap | 04:58 |
| mindrape | Anacranom: based on what? | 04:58 |
| sebsebseb | zcat[1]: so as for dev well let's find out | 04:59 |
| joot | tritium joljam ; there is a subtle switch on the front of acer laptops (some) | 04:59 |
| Anacranom | mindrape, just scroll up a while,,,,, | 04:59 |
| PeskyJ | Anacranom: I wouldn't say that... I'm a noob (well I've used debian a lot on servers but I've never used X before) and I found ubuntu great to switch to | 04:59 |
| Baatti | ah, thanks guys | 04:59 |
| Baatti | I got my script to run :D | 04:59 |
| joljam | this is a dell aptop.... so I tried Fn switch and F2 | 04:59 |
| nite_johnboy | Hi - I currently using AcidRip for backing up my movies - Are there other apps out there that would this easier or better ? ? | 05:00 |
| unop | Baatti, the error message is quite self explanatory | 05:00 |
| tritium | joljam: look again to see if that had any affect | 05:00 |
| Baatti | joljam I had trouble with my Atheros wireless drivers... I had to update the BLACKLIST file | 05:00 |
| joot | joljam: my last dell had a wireless switch | 05:00 |
| thiebaude | Anacranom: i dont have windows on my computer,:) | 05:00 |
| nite_johnboy | do this* | 05:00 |
| gaintsura | hey all, could someone help me configure sendmail and ldap for use as development of a website? I've got slapd installed and running and I've got sendmail installed, but I keep getting this (and I've never played with either of them beyond a preconfigured system with them installed) http://pastie.org/315909 | 05:00 |
| === ^sk8rboy^ is now known as nintendork32 | ||
| Baatti | unop I think what I did was I didn't save my .sh file after I updated it and tried it again :P | 05:00 |
| Anacranom | PeskyJ, mindrape i am a n00b too, and if i were faced with this crap,,, i would have turned away by now, tru, maybe just me but 8.10 is a mess | 05:01 |
| mindrape | Anacranom: well I scrolled up and didn't see your issue... | 05:02 |
| mindrape | In general I think if you switch to Linux you have to manage expectations... hardware vendors haven't all released open source drivers so there is a lot of hacking that goes on. | 05:02 |
| Baatti | Anacranom: I'm digging 8.10 quite a lot right now | 05:02 |
| Anacranom | mindrape, not mine,, you are not looking | 05:02 |
| mindrape | I'd say Ubuntu is the easiest of the linuces to use... | 05:02 |
| jeebster | 8.10 kind of made some files that didn't exist (namely some x264.h from May which I don't recall installing), which made some errors while building mplayer - otherwise it's just been a bit weird :/ | 05:03 |
| thiebaude | Anacranom: did you try 8.04LTS | 05:03 |
| Baatti | i'd completely agree with mindrape | 05:03 |
| mhall119 | Anacranom: the only people that come on here are experts or people having trouble, so it's not exactly representative of the general Ubuntu user population | 05:03 |
| Daejeo | i want to install gnome desktop from ssh?/ | 05:03 |
| jeebster | All in all - Ubuntu is an easy system to use :) | 05:03 |
| Daejeo | what should i type? | 05:03 |
| Baatti | hrm... not sure, but maybe sudo apt-get install gnome? | 05:03 |
| Genius314 | Okay... my iPod's working now. Is there a way in Amarok to sync my entire collection with my iPod without making an "All Collection" playlist on it? | 05:03 |
| Anacranom | mhall119, thats the 1 thing i agree with | 05:03 |
| mhall119 | Daejeo: is it an Ubuntu box? | 05:03 |
| Daejeo | yep | 05:03 |
| mindrape | I'd say in general Linux definitely has issues with hardware support for wireless cards. I probably help 4-5 people a night with just getting their wireless cards up and running. | 05:04 |
| PeskyJ | Anacranom: I've spent hours on end getting shit working in windows before now too... I think it's down to system setups and hardware combinations glitching each other... sure windows probably handles more varied setups better but I think ubuntu does a good job handling a fairly wide variety too - I've installed it on 4 different machines so far and not had any serious problems, except with this printer, but that was a nightmare in windows too | 05:04 |
| tritium | PeskyJ: easy on the language, please | 05:04 |
| mhall119 | Daejeo: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop will get you gnome plus some | 05:04 |
| jeebster | mindrape: Makes me think it's rather a driver issue, but my eeepc does get weird at times after coming out of hibernation | 05:05 |
| === sean is now known as Guest13342 | ||
| thiebaude | compare how long windows has been out compared to ubuntu | 05:05 |
| Baatti | mhall119: what about sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome ??would that work? | 05:05 |
| mhall119 | Baatti: I don't think so | 05:05 |
| Gr33n3gg | sudo apt-get install gdm | 05:05 |
| mindrape | I haven't used Windows for over 5 yrs now. Last install of Windows I had I got a Windows Update which completely obliterated my system. Couldn't boot. | 05:05 |
| gaintsura | Anacranom: I knew there was a reason I wasn't going to upgrade to 8.10 yet.. something told me | 05:05 |
| Baatti | and think of all the ubuntu distros! | 05:05 |
| Baatti | mhall ok | 05:05 |
| PeskyJ | tritium: oh yeah :P didn't notice that | 05:05 |
| mindrape | In the past 5 yrs I've only rebooted for kernel upgrades... | 05:05 |
| Anacranom | thiebaude, i have used ubuntu since 6.10,,, and yes 8.04 is the best, PeskyJ i have 8.04 on 6 boxes and love it,, | 05:05 |
| tritium | PeskyJ: no worries ;) | 05:06 |
| wastrel | i like intrepid it works fine except for DVD's | 05:06 |
| Baatti | well 8.10 just barely broke out...we gotta give it a chance to clean up some bugs | 05:06 |
| wastrel | actually i don't like intrepid it won't play dvd's - pointless | 05:06 |
| jeebster | Baatti: true | 05:06 |
| Baatti | although I haven't had any trouble with 8.10 yet | 05:06 |
| jeebster | wastrel: tried building mplayer yet? | 05:06 |
| Baatti | the only thing I've had trouble with is some apps through wine, but that'll happen anyway I'd expect | 05:07 |
| jeebster | apt-get build-dep mplayer | 05:07 |
| thiebaude | Anacranom: im only upgrading my 8.04LTs to the next LTS in 2010 | 05:07 |
| gaintsura | Anacranom: same here, I love 8.04, I only go into windows for hardcore gaming, which isn't often, I'm just waiting for luvc to become more accessible by cameras and then I"m going to convert my wife's system to 8.04 or so | 05:07 |
| mindrape | wastrel - I'm sure we could fix it w about an hour of troubleshooting. :) | 05:07 |
| Veinor | Is there any way for me to examine the memory of a currently-running process? | 05:07 |
| mindrape | wastrel - it was broken on my sisters laptop for about a month then she finally told me and I fixed it for her in 30 mins. | 05:07 |
| joot | Veiner: free -m | 05:07 |
| tritium | joljam: any update yet? | 05:08 |
| Anacranom | gaintsura, i play coh, starwars, and am working on splintercell | 05:08 |
| Baatti | veinor use your SYSTEM MONITOR | 05:08 |
| mindrape | joot - I believe he wants to examine the memory buffer itself. | 05:08 |
| mhall119 | Veinor: memdump | 05:08 |
| Anacranom | gaintsura, all on linux and better | 05:08 |
| gaintsura | Anacranom: my system is very picky... it could also be that I don't really have much time to game, maybe 1 hour a week | 05:08 |
| joot | mindrape: My bad :-) | 05:08 |
| mhall119 | Veinor: okay, what do you mean by "examine"? | 05:08 |
| Veinor | Like. | 05:08 |
| jeebster | wastrel: After getting the dependencies, just get the newest mplayer svn (multimedia apps tend to do no "stables" so it's a rule of thumb to get the newest svn) source and hit ./configure and make <3 | 05:08 |
| mindrape | ie; the equivalent of SoftIce for Windows.... | 05:08 |
| Veinor | I have a program that's using almost a gig of memory and I want to know what the heck it's loading in there | 05:08 |
| wastrel | jeebster: you've had success getting dvd playback working with that? apt-get build-dep mplayer and then pull the svn ? | 05:08 |
| Baatti | hrm | 05:09 |
| Baatti | veinor what program? | 05:09 |
| mhall119 | Veinor: memdump will give you everything, then you'll have to weed it out from there | 05:09 |
| jeebster | I actually haven't tested the css stuff yet, but from all theory I should say it should work. | 05:09 |
| gaintsura | Anacranom: I work more than I play, have to.. got a tight deadline to hit, but stupid crap like what I'm with right now is the set backs, can't seem to get sendmail/ldap going | 05:09 |
| PeskyJ | maybe the hep system in ubuntu could set up an IRC connection for the vast majority of people who don't know about IRC to come here for help - mind you probably most people trying linux do know about it | 05:09 |
| Veinor | VASSAL | 05:09 |
| Veinor | dunno how to explain it | 05:09 |
| Baatti | omg | 05:09 |
| Baatti | what does memdump do? | 05:09 |
| Baatti | that was scary | 05:10 |
| Veinor | it's basically an onlien game engine in java | 05:10 |
| mindrape | haha | 05:10 |
| mindrape | Baatti - it dumps kernel memory. | 05:10 |
| mindrape | its probably going to look "scary" | 05:10 |
| jeebster | Also wastrel - you'll need subversion too to get the source | 05:10 |
| mhall119 | Baatti: it dumps system memory contents to stdout | 05:10 |
| Baatti | mindrape so it just dumps all the kernal | 05:10 |
| Baatti | ok | 05:10 |
| thiebaude | Veinor: java games use alot of memory | 05:10 |
| Baatti | thats fine | 05:10 |
| Anacranom | gaintsura, u in 8.04 or 8.10? | 05:10 |
| Veinor | thiebaude: yes, but 1 GB? for Apples to Apples? | 05:10 |
| tritium | bezibaerch3n: punctuation is allowed in IRC. You don't have to hit "enter" after each sentence. | 05:10 |
| mhall119 | java uses a lot of memory | 05:10 |
| Veinor | When all of the card images combined are maybe 100 MB? | 05:10 |
| gaintsura | 8.04 | 05:10 |
| thiebaude | i gb is way too much | 05:10 |
| thiebaude | 1gb | 05:11 |
| Baatti | java has to intepret bytecode into machinelanguage, then perform a task | 05:11 |
| Baatti | tons of memory | 05:11 |
| jeebster | wastrel: So you practically install the dependencies, subversion and make yourself a folder like Builds | 05:11 |
| gaintsura | ldap and sendmail were not setup until now, ldap got setup and partially removed sometime ago (I THINK) | 05:11 |
| Veinor | Yeah, but none of the other games I've ran on VASSAL are using 1 GB | 05:11 |
| mhall119 | it's not the interpretation that takes up so much memory | 05:11 |
| mindrape | yeah, a single Java process can exceed that of an entire Oracle database... hehe. | 05:11 |
| jeebster | (where you'll store all of your built apps) | 05:11 |
| Anacranom | gaintsura, and in evolution? | 05:11 |
| Baatti | but java is pretty portable | 05:11 |
| mhall119 | Veinor: probably the game keeps loading the same thing, or not releasing things it doesn't need | 05:11 |
| om3 | how can i install quake 4 from the cd | 05:11 |
| Veinor | yeah, basically. | 05:12 |
| gaintsura | no | 05:12 |
| gaintsura | from php | 05:12 |
| PeskyJ | om3: install wine first, then just put th eCD in and it should autorun | 05:12 |
| Baatti | so yeah, I found this really sweet Administrator Book for linux.... it's free and online... | 05:12 |
| mindrape | oh? | 05:12 |
| jeebster | wastrel: and after making the folder for specially built apps, you do "svn co svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk mplayer" and it'll make a folder "mplayer" and take the newest source code there | 05:12 |
| Baatti | how can I get it put on the topic and the bot? | 05:12 |
| om3 | wine | 05:12 |
| om3 | wat version | 05:12 |
| gaintsura | Anacranom: I'm trying to send mail from a php site on my system. and heres the output.. http://pastie.org/315909 | 05:13 |
| om3 | ok thx | 05:13 |
| tritium | Baatti: that's not suitable for the channel topic | 05:13 |
| thiebaude | Baatti: you got a link? | 05:13 |
| jeebster | wastrel: After that, you go to the folder and write ./configure (it configures all kinds of stuff specifically for your system) | 05:13 |
| PeskyJ | om3: go to "Add/Remove" and search for "wine" then tick it and press apply changes | 05:13 |
| Baatti | http://rute.2038bug.com/index.html.gz | 05:13 |
| om3 | and steam | 05:13 |
| thiebaude | thanks | 05:13 |
| jeebster | wastrel: And after that you write "make" in the folder and a process of five to twenty minutes should begin | 05:13 |
| om3 | i got alot of game in steam | 05:13 |
| Veinor | hmm | 05:13 |
| om3 | ok thx | 05:14 |
| jeebster | wastrel: After that you can try playing back a DVD with your own pretty and new mplayer by hitting ./mplayer in the folder | 05:14 |
| jeebster | :) | 05:14 |

| jeebster | wastrel: if it in the end of building (make'ing) gives you an error about x264, just do "whereis x264" and you could find a x264.h file somewhere in /etc/includes. You go there and rename the file "x264.h.old" and ./configure and make again - should work :) | 05:16 |
| gaintsura | Anacranom: by the looks of it, it seems like either I didn't configure something right in the sendmail (which I don't know), or in the ldap config (which I also, don't know) | 05:17 |
| jeebster | (That is an error I got on 8.10 and a quick way of "repairing" it without even knowing what caused that old x264.h to come there D:) | 05:17 |
| bazhang | hacker__, what problems with upgrade to ppc intrepid? is it hanging at 55%? | 05:19 |
| Anacranom | gaintsura, well, it is within your local settings,,, without having access to that, which is not advisable, i am not sure how to help other than telling you to look it over, the local config | 05:20 |
| e\ectro_ | why does it seem like the sound in intrepid isnt as loud anymore | 05:20 |
| Anacranom | gaintsura, what mailserver are you usig? | 05:21 |
| e\ectro_ | my speakers are about 50% less than they were in Hardy | 05:21 |
| hubar_ | Does WIFI work on thinkpad t61 with intrepid? | 05:21 |
| Anacranom | *using | 05:21 |
| e\ectro_ | at max volume | 05:21 |
| bazhang | hubar_, what chipset | 05:21 |
| gaintsura | Anacranom: I've got access, don't worry about that, if you can help me fix it, I'll do it. What mailserver am I sending it to? is that what you mean? | 05:21 |
| mattgyver83 | anybody know of a good virtual keyboard app? | 05:21 |
| hubar_ | bazhang: hmm, I amnot sure,how do I find that out? | 05:22 |
| PeskyJ | e\ectro_: I noticed that to get the same percieved volume, in windows it is set to about 15% and in ubuntu at 85% | 05:22 |
| bazhang | hubar_, open a terminal and type lspci and look for it, or paste.ubuntu.com with it and give us the url | 05:22 |
| Anacranom | no gaintsura i was asking what sendmail you are trying to use | 05:23 |
| mhall119 | mattgyver83: like an on screen keyboard? | 05:23 |
| wastrel | 3945abg <3 | 05:23 |
| mattgyver83 | sorry, wrong channel. | 05:23 |
| TeslaTony | What do I need to change in xorg.conf to make it so I can use quotation marks without the system trying to give me umlauts instead? Oh, and get my right alt key working | 05:23 |
| CuriosTiger | draft-n @ 5 GHz <3 | 05:23 |
| e\ectro_ | PeskyJ: I have it cranked to the MAX, and its not nearly as loud as it use to be. I have to have it cranked just to hear it. and alsamixer is showing 100% | 05:23 |
| scunizi | TeslaTony, maybe change the keyboard layout instead? | 05:24 |
| PeskyJ | e\ectro_: yeah, very odd | 05:24 |
| slide | Is the upgrade from gutsy to hardy a major upgrade? Earlier I tried upgrading my system from gutsy to hardy and then to intrepid but it failed horribly and I'm wondering if it was most likely the upgrade to intrepid that did it or hardy | 05:24 |
| JonathanElli1 | Is there any point in keeping all the old kernels? I have about 9 in my boot menu. I guess the kernel has been upgraded many times but I am wondering why. The most recent one works so I guess I should delete the others? | 05:24 |
| bazhang | slide, was the gutsy to hardy upgrade hanging at configuring locales? | 05:24 |
| TeslaTony | scunizi: I am trying to get the keyboar to work properly across multiple accounts with three desktop environments | 05:24 |
| slide | bazhang, no, technically the upgrade all went fine, no errors or anything. but all my mail system stopped working | 05:25 |
| hubar_ | bazhang: http://paste.ubuntu.com/72719/ | 05:25 |
| gaintsura | Anacranom: when I did sudo apt-get install sendmail, it downloaded these: http://pastie.org/315920 | 05:25 |
| e\ectro_ | PeskyJ: just fixed it | 05:25 |
| mhall119 | JonathanElli1: I think they're going to start putting a cap on that | 05:25 |
| e\ectro_ | raised PCM volume | 05:25 |
| P_Kable | Hello, anyone with dual nic on intrepid ??? | 05:25 |
| LF|Irssi | TeslaTony: have you tried Synergy? | 05:25 |
| bazhang | JonathanElli1, may want to keep a couple older ones around just in case something like wireless stops working with a newer kernel, the rest you can delete | 05:25 |

| slide | you mean /etc? well, that may be the problem, the dovecot stopped working after the upgrade so i dont really want to upgrade again :( | 05:29 |

| JonathanElli1 | slide: I just realised of course the upgrade has broken it. Can you go back to gutsy if that worked to your satisfaction | 05:30 |
| TeslaTony | LF|Irssi: No worries. Multiple desktop environments. Multiple accounts. One computer. | 05:30 |
| slide | JonathanElli1, yes i restored from a backup so im back to gutsy | 05:30 |
| mhall119 | slide: is that what's in gutsy? | 05:30 |
| slide | yes | 05:30 |
| mhall119 | did you try enabling backports repository? | 05:30 |
| slide | i think it is, let me double | 05:31 |
| JonathanElli1 | slide: I am struggling to see the reason to upgrade my system every six months. I haven't bothered with intrepid and I dont see the point. If someone can educate me I would be grateful | 05:31 |
| hubar_ | bazhang: one more question. :) How do I know what module the "hardware drivers" is enabling? | 05:31 |
| mhall119 | JonathanElli1: if the upgrade has nothing you want, don't upgrade | 05:31 |
| bazhang | hubar_, did you blacklist the driver like in that post? | 05:32 |
| slide | mhall119, yea, its not in backports apparently either | 05:32 |
| tritium | JonathanElli1: sounds like you're a good candidate to stick with LTS releases. | 05:32 |
| ^Cheeky | hello iam trying to follow this tutorial, and when i downloaded tsMuxer and tired to extract it says its not a tar file ? | 05:32 |
| hubar_ | bazhang: not yet, I am just curious of how to know that. | 05:32 |
| mhall119 | slide, you can see if you can find a .deb for that version | 05:32 |
| ^Cheeky | i used archive manager and i got that error | 05:32 |
| scunizi | JonathanD, if you're running LTS and it's working fine you're good to go for some time.. I upgraded this time because intrepid works with my motherboard and hardy didn't.. otherwise I'd still be on hardy. | 05:32 |
| Spanglegluppet | hey, my Firefox in Ubuntu 8.10 is playing up, can anyone help me fix it? | 05:32 |
| joot | JonathanEllil: I think you dont need to upgrade unless you want to be up with the latest version Hardy is a lts so it has support for ages yet | 05:33 |
| bazhang | hubar_, it will enable the one you need | 05:33 |
| hubar_ | bazhang: I am using ndipwrapper for my wireless connection. | 05:33 |
| bazhang | hubar_, but need to blacklist the other one | 05:33 |
| JonathanElli1 | bazhang: Is there any reason why things should suddenly stop working with the most recent kernel? Just asking so I can clarify whether I need to keep the old kernels | 05:33 |
| tritium | Spanglegluppet: "playing up"? | 05:33 |
| hubar_ | bazhang: Do you know how I can know what module that is? | 05:33 |
| fryguy | JonathanElli1: what things | 05:33 |
| slipdipper | ok, so im pretty positive that these wireless broadcom drivers are the cause of my intermitten latency issues.. how can i test this, i see the latency in icmp response times, and via the sniffer, but is there a way i can put the driver into a debug mode or something that will help me identify if its freaking out? (im next to positive its not related to wireless interference, etc..) | 05:33 |
| om3 | why i can install punkbuster | 05:33 |
| om3 | from quake 4 | 05:33 |
| bazhang | JonathanElli1, just as a precaution; no known problems here (though best to play it safe and keep a couple) | 05:34 |
| === NeO_Painwithin is now known as Neo_Painwithin | ||
| Spanglegluppet | tritium: yeah, it's acting strange. for example, the url bar doesn't show any text, all of my bookmarks have disappeared, and the loading bar won't appear on the status bar | 05:34 |

| JonathanElli1 | fryguy: nothing has stopped working - hypothetical question in response to bazhang's previous answer | 05:34 |

| NeO_Painwithin | im on Ubuntu riow so its alittle different | 05:34 |
| almostdvs | is there a way i can make the "scale" compiz plugin work on a toggle, and so i don't have to hold down the alt key? | 05:34 |
| om3 | why | 05:35 |
| Spanglegluppet | tritium: that's fine. any idea what's going on? | 05:35 |
| tritium | Spanglegluppet: no, not sure. Sorry. | 05:35 |
| bazhang | om3 because this is a busy channel and it makes it hard to read | 05:35 |
| fryguy | almostdvs: what is in the configuration options is what is available for the plugin, there's no hidden features. The answer to your question is yes, it's right in the configuration | 05:35 |
| NeO_Painwithin | hmmm | 05:35 |
| bazhang | almostdvs, that would best be answered in #compiz-fusion | 05:35 |

| ubottu | Spanglegluppet, please see my private message | 05:35 |
| mhall119 | almostdvs: I have scale mapped to a screen corner, that works | 05:36 |
| JonathanElli1 | joot: Thanks. What does lts mean by the way? | 05:36 |
| fryguy | JonathanElli1: long term support | 05:36 |
| joot | JonathanEllil: Log term | 05:36 |
| joot | long | 05:36 |
| almostdvs | fryguy: then maybe the terminology is what is tripping me up, what is that option? | 05:37 |
| JonathanElli1 | So Hardy was marked as LTS but Gutsy wasnt? Gutsy was my first linux distro so I am a bit of a newbie | 05:37 |
| mhall119 | fryguy: the initiate keyboard combo only keeps scale active as long as you hold the combo | 05:37 |
| fryguy | almostdvs: no idea, and i don't have a compiz install in front of me to check | 05:37 |
| fryguy | mhall119: there's more ways to enable the plugin than a keyboard combo | 05:37 |
| mhall119 | fryguy: yes, I already suggested one | 05:38 |
| fryguy | mhall119: so why are you informing me of this? | 05:38 |
| mhall119 | but the exact solution he was looking for is not one of them | 05:38 |
| mhall119 | fryguy: because your answer to almostdvs was inaccurate | 05:38 |
| JonathanElli1 | joot: So Hardy was marked as LTS but Gutsy wasnt? Gutsy was my first linux distro so I am a bit of a newbie | 05:38 |
| fryguy | mhall119: the solution he was looking for was "a way for scale to work on a toggle, so he doesn't have to hold down a key" | 05:38 |
| tritium | JonathanElli1: yes, Hardy is LTS. Gutsy was not. | 05:39 |
| Baatti | should I get heirloom-mailx or mailutils? | 05:39 |
| LF|Irssi | JonathanElli1: i believe its every other upgrade is LTS | 05:39 |
| joot | JonathanEllil: yes you are correct there will be another lts distro but I cannot recall when | 05:39 |
| mhall119 | fryguy: maybe I misunderstood him, but it sounded like he still wanted to use the keyboard | 05:39 |
| slipdipper | AAAA | 05:39 |
| joot | JonathanEllil: there the distro beginning with J will be lts | 05:40 |
| JonathanElli1 | joot and tritium: Thanks. So are the other distros interim bugfixes then or what? | 05:40 |
| almostdvs | joot: jaunty jackalope? | 05:40 |
| bazhang | joot, thats not right | 05:40 |
| cowo- | pemalu | 05:40 |
| Baatti | which is better: mailutil or heirloom-mailx? | 05:40 |
| Spanglegluppet | !firefox | 05:40 |

| joot | bahzang is that not every alternate | 05:41 |
| fryguy | JonathanElli1: and updates to programs, new versions and such | 05:41 |
| tritium | JonathanElli1: the "distro" is Ubuntu. That does not change. The releases are the changing element. | 05:41 |
| bazhang | joot, no | 05:41 |
| almostdvs | i'm pretty sure jaunty jackalope is not lts | 05:41 |
| bazhang | its not | 05:41 |
| JonathanElli1 | tritium: Sorry. I knew about the distro/release difference, just typed the wrong thing! My poor tired brain | 05:42 |

| fryguy | LF|Irssi: well, not interative, but the adjective starts with the same letter | 05:43 |
| fryguy | gah *alliterative" | 05:43 |
| jeebster | wastrel: Maybe, but really... The file shouldn't even be there, I had only updated to 8.10 and hadn't installed any x264 package D: | 05:43 |
| tritium | babilonia: wrong channel for that | 05:43 |

| wos | !tv >me | 05:44 |
| ubottu | wos, please see my private message | 05:44 |
| JonathanElli1 | fryguy: Does that imply that intrepid is less stable than hardy? It would be helpful to point that out on the get ubuntu page. I just gave a frustrated vista user an intrepid livecd to play with to see if she liked it. Should I recommend she installs hardy instead? | 05:44 |
| fryguy | JonathanElli1: no | 05:44 |
| wastrel | i have x264 packages installed | 05:45 |
| scunizi | Which restricted nvidia driver works best with the 8000 series cards? the 177 (latest in ubuntu) or 171? Or am I better off getting the beta of 180 direct from nvidia? I'm using 177 with very poor performance. | 05:45 |
| werdnum | Is it possible to suspend/resume with proprietary nvidia drivers? | 05:45 |
| tritium | scunizi: we never recommend non ubuntu-packaged drivers | 05:45 |
| gavagai | werdnum, yes | 05:45 |
| JonathanElli1 | fryguy: So I am still not clear on the difference between the lts RELEASES (I thank you!) and the non-lts ones | 05:45 |
| bazhang | scunizi, did you check hardware drivers? they say which is recommended | 05:45 |
| fryguy | JonathanElli1: LTS releases get security updates for a longer period than non-lts releases | 05:45 |
| === bruenig_ is now known as bruenig | ||
| scunizi | bazhang, hardware drivers listed two.. 177 was recommended.. but screen draws are s.l.o.w. | 05:46 |
| fryguy | JonathanElli1: during the period that both are getting security updates (a couple of years), there is no difference between something labeled LTS and something not | 05:46 |
| werdnum | gavagai: sudo hibernate-disk doesn't seem to work properly, I get the error "Some modules failed to unload: nvidia / hibernate-disk: Aborting suspend due to errors in ModulesUnloadBlacklist (use --force to override)." | 05:46 |
| === DCPom is now known as DCPorn | ||
| frybye | JonathanElli1: the main difference is that cannonical supports the long term support releases for a longer period or... (more of interest to corperations and firms I guess...) | 05:46 |
| === DCPorn is now known as DCPom | ||
| joot | JonathanEllil: I have had some problems installing 8.10 on older computers with shared memory video cards and gone back to hardy for those but I think on a later macine it is installing ok | 05:46 |
| slipdipper | so no one has any idea about debugging those broadcom sta drivers? | 05:46 |
| bazhang | scunizi, what were the other choices? the 173? did you try any of the others? | 05:46 |
| JonathanElli1 | fryguy: How is it decided which releases are lts? Sounds like someone installing intrepid would need to upgrade earlier thatn someone on hardy then | 05:46 |
| joot | machine | 05:47 |
| fryguy | JonathanElli1: it's determined in advance, on the roadmap of releases. releases are planned out several in advance, with a schedule | 05:47 |
| JonathanElli1 | fryguy: So for a newbie it is best to go for an lts release then? | 05:47 |
| scunizi | bazhang, 173 I think was the other one.. I'm on a different computer now so I can't check.. I've got a new motherboard with an 8200 card and chipset in it. (amd64 am2+) | 05:47 |
| fryguy | JonathanElli1: no | 05:48 |
| venz | anyone know how to fix this : | 05:48 |
| venz | Received disconnect from 67.223.235.29: 2: Too many authentication failures for jason | 05:48 |

| bazhang | JonathanElli1, newer kernel has more features and support | 05:48 |

| droopsta915 | why do my proprietary drivers keep disabling ? | 05:53 |
| JonathanElli1 | How would I know if a kernel upgrade caused problems? I have generic kernels 2.6.24-16 through 20 and realtime kernel 21 on this machine. Its a home office PC on a seven year old Dell. I tried the rt kernel to try and get an audio analyzer to work properly (it didnt help) so then I installed Ubuntustudio on my laptop to use the analyzer on and that works a treat. So I guess I could remove the rt kernel from this desktop machine and delete kernels 16 | 05:54 |
| bazhang | JonathanElli1, if things like wireless stopped working (one indication) | 05:54 |
| hacker__ | !enter | 05:55 |
| ubottu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 05:55 |
| wastrel | JonathanElli1: it doesn't much matter if the kernel sits around on disk. the one that you boot into is the only one that matters. | 05:55 |
| JonathanElli1 | bazhang: This machine doesnt run wireless | 05:55 |
| bazhang | JonathanElli1, then likely not a concern, you can delete the older ones (though I would keep one or two around) | 05:55 |
| scunizi | bazhang, ah.. yes.. the newer drivers are used for SSE systems. I've got a new board so I assume (dangerous) that it's sse enabled but I'll have to check the bios.. thanks for the pointer. | 05:55 |
| JonathanElli1 | Is there any advantage or disadvantage of the rt kernel compared to the generic one for a desktop machine? | 05:56 |
| tritium | JonathanElli1: no | 05:56 |
| bazhang | JonathanElli1, depends what you are trying to do; audio recording for example benefits from the rt kernel | 05:56 |
| fryguy | rt kernel is designed to guarantee real time scheduling to programs. It should result in a noticable degradation of program response and general "snappiness" when doing a lot of multitasking, because the rt scheduler will context switch more frequently | 05:56 |
| JonathanElli1 | bazhang: I gathered that about audio recording. I dont use this machine for that. So it sounds like this desktop machine would benefit from going back to the generic kernel - specially as its fairly old hardware | 05:57 |
| bazhang | JonathanElli1, yup | 05:58 |

| jordan | I'm trying to use a theme but Ubuntu is warning me that the GTK+ Theme Engine isn't installed yet I can't find it in Apt and its not giving me any options to install it | 06:05 |
| Spanglegluppet | hang on, that didn't do anything | 06:05 |
| Spanglegluppet | firefox is still there | 06:05 |
| jordan | how do I fix this? | 06:05 |
| hubar_ | Does intrepid support Intel GMA 4500 MHD yet? | 06:05 |
| fryguy | jordan: which theme engine | 06:06 |
| \Kira | Could someone help me with my ubuntu server? Im trying to access the CUPS configuration web site. Here is my pastbin of the part I believe to be important: http://paste.ubuntu.com/72729/. | 06:06 |
| ardchoille | jordan: I get the same notifications on a few themes even though I do have the proper engine installed, it may be a bug. Is your theme working correctly? | 06:06 |
| ^Cheeky | ardchoille, welll ok ..you have to give a file .. but .. the link that iam following says all the programs has the links has to be installed .. does that mean the app is already installed? | 06:06 |
| jordan | fryguy, I just said ubuntu says GTK+ Theme Engine not installed | 06:06 |
| jordan | it never did this in 8.04 | 06:06 |
| jordan | ardchoille, no hense why I'm trying to fix it | 06:06 |
| fryguy | jordan: sounds like something else is wrong, but anyways apt-cache search engine and find the right engine and install that | 06:06 |

| hubar_ | I searched ubuntu forum, but http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=907936 at 2008/9/20, it has not been resolved yet. | 06:06 |
| Baatti | ok, I have a question .... | 06:06 |
| jordan | well I've noticed they removed stuff from apt for 8.10 like emerald | 06:07 |
| Baatti | everything I'm reading about Linux talks about how Admins have their home folder as ROOT... yet, nothing is on my ROOT folder in Ubuntu 8.10, please explain | 06:07 |
| tritium | jordan: emerald is still in the repos | 06:07 |
| tritium | !info emerald | 06:07 |
| ubottu | emerald (source: emerald): Decorator for compiz-fusion. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.7.2-0ubuntu2 (intrepid), package size 255 kB, installed size 1380 kB | 06:07 |
| ^Cheeky | is there any other way to convert MKV to .m2ts format ? | 06:07 |
| jordan | tritium, I tried searching for it a few mins ago 0 results | 06:08 |
| fryguy | Baatti: that's not really clear. can you elaborate? the home directory for the root user is in /root/ | 06:08 |
| ardchoille | jordan: This might be better for searching: apt-cache search engine | grep gtk | 06:08 |
| tritium | jordan: see above | 06:08 |
| Gnea | Baatti: there's a difference between the root account's home directory (/root) and the root directory of the system (/) | 06:08 |
| ssmy | I'm running my server on 7.10. I am trying to install finch (command-line equivalent of pidgin), but it keeps trying to install X. How can I avoid installing x? | 06:08 |
| jordan | ardchoille, yea it gives me like 200 packages | 06:08 |
| ardchoille | jordan: yeah, noticed that | 06:08 |
| fryguy | ssmy: you don't | 06:08 |
| jordan | tritium, that really doesn't help me if apt-cache and apt-get can't find it | 06:08 |
| Baatti | gnea so, my home directory has access to root, cause I'm the admin, whereas another user (not admin) can't access /root? is that correct? | 06:08 |
| tritium | Baatti: you're reading a generic book, not specific to ubuntu. Ubuntu disables the root account, and uses sudo for security. See !sudo for more info. | 06:08 |
| Baatti | ah | 06:09 |
| jordan | I'll try switching mirrors | 06:09 |
| Baatti | I gotcha | 06:09 |
| ssmy | fryguy: let's assume I actually want to install finch. | 06:09 |
| tritium | jordan: it does help you by pointing out that you need to enable the universe repo | 06:09 |
| Baatti | so, any user can run as admin then? | 06:09 |
| fryguy | ssmy: so then you install it, apt-get install finch | 06:09 |
| jordan | tritium, you mean the third party sources? | 06:09 |
| Gnea | Baatti: only if they're set to in sudoers | 06:09 |
| tritium | Baatti: no, only those in the admin group | 06:09 |
| fryguy | tritium: the root account isn't disabled, you just aren't provided with the password | 06:09 |
| Gnea | !sudo | 06:09 |
| tritium | jordan: no, the universe repo | 06:09 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE) | 06:09 |
| jordan | and how do I enable that? | 06:09 |
| tritium | fryguy: no, it's disabled | 06:09 |
| Baatti | ah, so sudoers gives admin privs, and they need the admin password | 06:10 |
| tritium | Baatti: you grant users sudo access by adding them to the admin group. | 06:10 |
| Gnea | Baatti: you should just read the url given by ubottu to truely understand | 06:10 |
| fryguy | tritium: that's not true. It's possible to log in as root on a stock ubuntu install without changing anything, therefore the account isn't "disabled" | 06:10 |
| ssmy | I'll just install from source, see if that works... | 06:10 |
| Gnea | Baatti: then ask questions - it's easier that way :) | 06:10 |
| Baatti | gnea and tritium thank you both | 06:10 |
| tritium | fryguy: no. "man passwd" and look for the -l (lock) switch. | 06:10 |
| wizzer | does update manager slow down anyone elses system | 06:10 |
| Baatti | i completely understand | 06:11 |

| Gnea | ^Cheeky: ffmpeg and avidemux are usually pretty good with it | 06:12 |
| fryguy | tritium: "sudo su -" provides you with a login shell on a default ubuntu install. is it recommended? no? does it prove that the account isn't "disabled"? yes | 06:12 |
| tritium | !sudo | fryguy | 06:12 |
| ubottu | fryguy: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE) | 06:12 |
| Gnea | fryguy: sudo -i would be a better approach | 06:13 |
| ^Cheeky | Gnea, ok i gues ill try | 06:13 |
| fryguy | Gnea: that it would. I'm emphasizing that a previous statement was incorrect | 06:13 |
| Gnea | ^Cheeky: they're not easy, but tinker with them enough and you can get it done | 06:13 |
| Gnea | fryguy: :) | 06:13 |
| tritium | fryguy: read the wiki page. The term "disabled" is appropriate. | 06:14 |
| bazhang | fryguy, its disabled | 06:14 |

| JonathanElli1 | Upgrade manager is failing to upgrade properly because it says it cant authenticate a load of packages related to gnucash and libaqbanking.

| Gnea | mankash: http://www.faqs.org/docs/linux_scratch/chapter07/hosts.html | 06:15 |
| fryguy | tritium: where on that page does it explain "disabled" the word disabled occurs once in the page in a header explaining why it's good. It doesn't specify how the user is disabled | 06:15 |
| === pc06 is now known as ce_imoet | ||
| bazhang | JonathanElli1, let us see your sources.list | 06:15 |
| mindrape | when people say the root account is disabled they mean from logging in... obviously the root account exists and is "usable" | 06:15 |
| fryguy | mindrape: and it's possible to obtain a login shell | 06:15 |
| mindrape | fryguy - obviously... | 06:15 |
| mindrape | but not w the root password. | 06:15 |
| mindrape | as its a "faceless" id in Ubuntu | 06:15 |
| Gnea | ^Cheeky: avidemux is probably the easiest - and ffmpeg is extendible if it doesn't support what you need out of the box | 06:15 |
| JonathanElli1 | bazhang: can you remind me how to output the source list in the terminal | 06:16 |
| tritium | fryguy: read the passwd manpage, if you prefer. The account is "locked". No sense arguing over semantics. | 06:16 |
| bazhang | JonathanElli1, /etc/apt/sources.list you can cat that then paste.ubuntu.com with it | 06:16 |
| Born2Learn | Hey, I've seen a bunch of desktop screenshots on the internet with a widget showing your hostname, ip, cpu usage, and ram usage. Could anyone give me a link for a good one or help me set one up? | 06:16 |
| bazhang | JonathanElli1, or install pastebinit and cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit and give us the url | 06:17 |
| linxuz3r | what is new in ubuntu 8.10? | 06:17 |
| scunizi | JonathanD, or install pastebinit and then just "pastebinit /etc/apt/sources.list" in a termial and it will return a url | 06:17 |
| fryguy | tritium: so then why does sudo su - work? and why does logging in as root while having a public key in /root/.ssh/authorized_keys work? And why do entries in utmp and wtmp appear when these actions occur (which display a list of logged in users). | 06:17 |
| cyphase | when is eog going to get good svg support? | 06:17 |

| Gnea | Born2Learn: right-click on your top desktop bar, "add to panel" and select the system monitor - you can customize it to add monitors for all of those things at the same time | 06:17 |

| Originooo | hey, i've installed virtualbox on 8.04 but i can't capture the mouse. it looks like virtual box can't find this device. Im using a standard usb one....does anyone know the problem? | 06:36 |
| Gnea | I suggest audacity | 06:36 |
| joot | telco, are you using a shared memory card? | 06:36 |
| Flannel | fryguy: That's because its not given a default value in sudoers, but you can specify it. | 06:37 |
| Zurah | LOL How funny. | 06:37 |
| fryguy | Flannel: how do i specify it | 06:37 |
| ^Cheeky | Gnea, i tired using ffmpeg with this line ffmpeg -i file.mkv -vcodec mpeg2video -acodec ac3 file.avi; mv file.avi file.m2ts but it gave me an error : http://pastebin.com/d5bcee5f1 | 06:37 |
| telco | @joot I don't think so. Why? | 06:37 |
| Zurah | I was wiggling my foot under my desk, bumping the cord on my mic, when suddenly I heard it through my speakers. | 06:37 |
| Zurah | It's working now, though I've no idea why. | 06:37 |
| Flannel | fryguy: man sudoers, timestamp_timeout | 06:37 |
| joot | telco, I had the same prob and decided that was the cause I have gone back to hardy now | 06:38 |
| adouba | hi | 06:38 |
| fryguy | Flannel: what is the syntax to use? I tried appending it but visudo is telling me that the syntax is wrong | 06:38 |
| Zurah | Wait, no! It won't record, but the sound is coming through the speakers. | 06:38 |
| telco | @joot I honestly don't know. It's an ATI onboard for my laptop. | 06:38 |
| faryshta | Have someone give a try to the beta release of XFCE 4.6? | 06:38 |
| Gnea | ^Cheeky: try #ffmpeg | 06:39 |
| telco | I am in the process of getting hardy ISO right now. That's my plan too. | 06:39 |
| telco | Unless I can figure something out. | 06:39 |
| ssmy | Zurah: generally the easiest way in my experience to get microphones to work is just to keep messing with it until it works | 06:39 |
| ^Cheeky | Gnea, seems dead .. :/ | 06:39 |
| joot | telco, I really think that may be your problem but I an not a geek so try your question again in a few minutes | 06:39 |
| Gnea | ^Cheeky: just be patient | 06:39 |
| ^Cheeky | Gnea, ok | 06:40 |
| Flannel | fryguy: It it anywhere an option is valid. Defaults would be a good line to append it to. | 06:40 |
| Zurah | ssmy, I've been messing for a while. Whatever goes into my mic comes out my speakers, but when I try to record from the mic, it doesn't work. | 06:40 |
| telco | @joot It seems to be quite a common problem. Not just my card. Actually I have a desktop machine that I'm using as a server that had the same problem. Or at least it seems the same. But when I boot with the old kernel that one works fine. But this one doesn't work with the old kernel even. | 06:41 |
| sanjiro | my sound card is detected, ive checked alsamixer and nothing is muted, regular volume settings nothing muted... what's missing that i need to do to enable sound? | 06:41 |
| alex_mayorga | is this already packaged for Intrepid http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php ? | 06:42 |
| fryguy | Flannel: I added another Defaults line underneath the first one: Defaults timestamp_timeout=0 and it's giving me a syntax error still | 06:42 |
| towlie | if i want to modify a non boot partition, can i use gparted to do it ? | 06:42 |
| Flannel | fryguy: Append it to the other line. Don't have two Default lines. | 06:42 |
| wastrel | man sudoers is my favorite manpage | 06:42 |
| joot | telco, It is a bit odd installed 8.10 on two old machines one just failed and the other just worked both similar spec micro atx sharedmem boards so I really am a bit clueless | 06:43 |
| fryguy | Flannel: Defaults env_reset timestamp_timeout=0 still getting a syntax error | 06:43 |
| fr500 | hi | 06:43 |
| fr500 | i set hddparm to enter standby after one hour of non activity | 06:44 |
| Flannel | fryguy: that shouldn't be your sudoers file, unless you've modified it before. Care to pastebin what you've got? (By default, contains no unique information) | 06:44 |
| fr500 | but it never goes to standby | 06:44 |
| alex_mayorga | !sta | 06:44 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about sta | 06:44 |
| fr500 | do I need to enable laptop mode? | 06:44 |
| towlie | when i run gparted it says scanning all devices but never seems to finish scanning. has anyone else had this problem ? | 06:44 |
| fryguy | Flannel: i've never modified my sudoers file before, this is a stock install in a vm that i'm working with right now | 06:44 |
| wastrel | fryguy: you're using visudo yes? | 06:44 |
| fryguy | Flannel: i don't feel comfortable making changes to this file on a real install until i'm comfortable with what exactly it's doing | 06:44 |
| fryguy | wastrel: yes | 06:44 |
| towlie | can anyone help me ? | 06:45 |
| Flannel | fryguy: You put commas in between the options. | 06:45 |
| ImJesusChrist | Towlie, do you remember your password | 06:45 |
| towlie | of course | 06:45 |
| ImJesusChrist | maybe if u get hi | 06:45 |
| ImJesusChrist | high | 06:45 |
| ImJesusChrist | u can remember | 06:45 |
| towlie | :p | 06:45 |
| towlie | not funny | 06:45 |
| telco | @joot That is strange. I totally should have checked the forums BEFORE I tried to upgrade. Although I probably would have said "Meh, it won't happen to me" anyway. Lol. | 06:45 |
| towlie | ImJesusChrist, | 06:46 |
| towlie | can you help me out | 06:46 |
| ImJesusChrist | yes | 06:46 |
| towlie | ok | 06:46 |
| joot | telco, Me too lol 20/20 hindsight | 06:46 |
| ImJesusChrist | HaHAHaHa My visions 5 | 06:46 |
| fryguy | Flannel: here is my sudoers file. if this Defaults line isn't supposed to be there, why is it there on this stock install? http://pastebin.com/f342a21ed what does it do and can i get rid of it | 06:47 |
| telco | @joot Hehehe yeah. | 06:47 |
| abby | hey folks | 06:47 |
| towlie | i have 3 partition 1. is linux 2 is empty ntfs 3 is empty fat32 partition and 4 is swap. i want to merge partitions 2 and 3 | 06:47 |
| kindofabuzz | OT, but could a apache guru PM me? I'm banned from #apache =) | 06:47 |
| towlie | oops 4 partitions | 06:47 |
| Flannel | fryguy: env_reset,foobar=0 | 06:47 |
| abby | a friend of mine has Intrepid, and they are trying to play WoW with the fglrx driver | 06:47 |
| abby | However, the graphics get all garbled when it starts up | 06:47 |
| fryguy | Flannel: if env_reset isn't supposed to be there according to you, what should I do? It was put there as part of the installation. | 06:47 |
| abby | Can anyone point me to the right place? | 06:47 |
| telco | So I guess now I need to know how to roll back without losing my configuration. I spent a lot of time in 8.04 and it was working flawlessly. I'd hate to have to start fresh. | 06:48 |
| abby | I don't know crap about Ubuntu since I got Gentoo | 06:48 |
| Flannel | fryguy: Leave it. If it was there, it's there. That's just a spartan sudoers from what I'm used to. Perhaps thats just newer versions. | 06:48 |
| abby | anyone? | 06:48 |
| qbmaniac | no | 06:48 |
| fryguy | Flannel: so I shouldn't get rid of this? | 06:48 |
| joot | telco, not sure that rolling back is an option :-((( | 06:49 |
| jordan_ | every time I try to plug in my 500gig external drive I get a Cannot mount volume error | 06:49 |
| tekirai | hello all I was needing some with the madwifi install inst | 06:49 |
| qbmaniac | abby: run windows virtualized would be my best option | 06:49 |
| qbmaniac | and run it on windows in virtualbo | 06:49 |
| === co_eMo is now known as kieky^ce_FYB | ||
| qbmaniac | virtualbox* | 06:49 |
| ssmy | jordan_: was it last mounted on windows? | 06:49 |
| Flannel | fryguy: No. I just said not two Defaults | 06:49 |
| abby | qbmaniac, I can run 3D apps virtualized? You sure? | 06:50 |
| jordan_ | ssmy, its a NTFS drive and yes last mounted on windows but we always make sure to eject the volume before shutting it off | 06:50 |
| LF|Irssi | virtualbox doesn do 3d acceleration though does it? | 06:50 |
| qbmaniac | abby as far as I know it does | 06:50 |
| qbmaniac | doesnt it? | 06:50 |
| qbmaniac | I've not tried gaming so far | 06:50 |
| fryguy | Flannel: you also said that env_reset shouldn't be there. I want to make sure i'm not compromising system security any further | 06:50 |
| cyphase | does anyone know of a program the smoothly lets you zoom in and out of an svg image? | 06:50 |
| Flannel | fryguy: No. | 06:50 |
| abby | I'm not so sure Vbox can do 3D | 06:50 |
| LF|Irssi | the new Vmware Workstation does 3d | 06:50 |
| abby | Really? | 06:50 |
| qbmaniac | vmware costs doeesnt it? | 06:50 |
| LF|Irssi | aye | 06:50 |
| abby | We have money lol | 06:50 |
| qbmaniac | nice | 06:50 |
| tekirai | can someone help me with madwifi install | 06:50 |
| ardchoille | I thought vmware was all free now | 06:50 |
| joot | telco, not sure that rolling back is an option :-(((cyphase, inkscape | 06:51 |
| abby | If VMware can do 3D then I'm sure we will buy it | 06:51 |
| telco | I sure hope it is. | 06:51 |
| LF|Irssi | Worksstation is not free | 06:51 |
| ardchoille | ah | 06:51 |
| qbmaniac | abby: check it out on internet first | 06:51 |
| fryguy | Flannel: the fact that sudo defaults to not prompting for password for a period of time worries me about other default settings I'm not aware of. Seeing this Defaults line that is claimed shouldn't be there worries me is all | 06:51 |
| joot | cyphase, inkscape | 06:51 |
| cyphase | joot: i've tried inkscape. not as smooth as i'd like | 06:51 |
| qbmaniac | to see what others have said about 3d acceleration under it. | 06:51 |
| abby | LF, so vmware does 3d eh | 06:51 |
| LF|Irssi | Vm workstation does yes | 06:51 |
| telco | Meh, it won't be the end of the world. As long as I can save my data. Which I'm sure I can. | 06:51 |
| abby | LF, freakin sweet | 06:51 |
| joot | cyphase, ok I do not know then | 06:51 |
| cyphase | joot: thanks anyway | 06:52 |
| Flannel | fryguy: I said "shouldn't be there" because I've never seen it. If its the default, it's the default. If you want to know exactly what it does (and what else you may want), check the man page. | 06:52 |

| guestguestnew | Bsims, but samba is designed to connect to windows networks? shouldn't linux have its on networking? | 07:00 |

| jujuthecow | how do i uninstall ubuntu? | 07:00 |
| ssmy | ]NFS | 07:00 |
| tdawgedogg | hey im installing ubuntu 8.04...should i make it a primary or logical partition? | 07:00 |
| Bsims | It does but samba is usually less hassle and works with the others | 07:00 |

| tdawgedogg | no existing partitions on that drive | 07:01 |
| fryguy | guestguestnew: install nfs, add entries to /etc/exports, put those mounts in /etc/ftsab if you want to make them easier to mount, and that's it | 07:01 |
| tdawgedogg | but i have a shit load of other drives | 07:01 |
| lolo2 | does anyone know how to fix the Unknown encoder 'mpeg4' error in ffmpeg? | 07:01 |

| towlie | hey guys i need help. i have 4 partitions 1. is linux 2. is an empty ntfs partition 3. is empty fat partition and 4 is swap. i want to merge partitions 2 and 3 in gparted. do i need to reinstall the boot loader after i do this ? | 07:02 |
| * Bsims nods true enough fryguy... its mostly that I've used samba before and not nfs | 07:02 | |
| tdawgedogg | so i use primary if i dont have any other partitions on the drive? | 07:02 |
| ssmy | towlie: maybe? i don't know. if you need to just search the internet for 'reinstall grub' | 07:03 |
| ssmy | tdawgedogg: generally, yes. | 07:03 |
| jujuthecow | is there a way to play maplestory on ubuntu? | 07:03 |

| jim_p | phillipbeynon: this is no error | 07:04 |
| jim_p | phillipbeynon: i get more or less the same every single time. does the pc boot normally after that?? | 07:05 |

| Zurah | Any idea why my mic is routed through my speakers, but not able to record onto the computer? | 07:05 |

| jim_p | Zurah: improper module configuration | 07:06 |
| ssmy | tdawgedogg: not really... you need a bootloader. | 07:06 |

| jujuthecow | how do use launch .exe files? Every time i try to it says i need another program to launch a launchable program... | 07:07 |
| Bsims | FluxD: /home/abc/1234/name/exe | 07:07 |
| mkquist | FluxD: just give the full pathname when you try to run it | 07:07 |
| mkquist | FluxD: llike that above.. lol | 07:07 |
| FluxD | Bsims, mkquist thanks let me try that | 07:07 |
| jim_p | phillipbeynon: does it boot normally ? then there is no need to worry. at that point the most worrying circumstance to happen is a kernel panic. | 07:07 |
| phillipbeynon | jim_p, no the machine doesn't boot past it. It attepts to load xwindows but then drops to the terminal. | 07:07 |
| alex_mayorga | my AltGr key is non functional, any ideas? | 07:08 |

| bjordan | during install, can ubuntu resize NTFS partitions without loss of data? | 07:13 |
| Zurah | Thanks, I'll look that up. | 07:13 |
| phillipbeynon | jim_p: correct, it attempts to load. the UBUNTU screen comes up and the progress bar goes half way across before pausing for a while then moving again for a bit, then the creen fills with "/etc/init.d/rc: 317: Permission Denied" | 07:13 |
| jim_p | bjordan: before install, yes. open gparted and shrink the partition | 07:13 |
| alex_mayorga | ohdamnllnics, clarify "g3", please | 07:13 |
| ohdamnallnics | bjordan, you are going to be fine, you can resize NTFS without loss of daddy | 07:13 |
| tekirai | my unbunt install uses the restricted driver for an ahteros wifi card in my toshiba laptop but when I go under the network manager it does not work and this is the last piece of hardware that is keeping me from using unbuntu full time need some help getting it to work | 07:13 |
| jujuthecow | i installed ubuntu a couple hours ago and now i cant install windows xp pro back on my comp no partitions any idea? | 07:13 |
| ohdamnallnics | alex_mayorga, mac g3 | 07:13 |
| jim_p | has anyone ever used wifiradar? i cant wait to ditch wicd as well :P | 07:14 |
| alex_mayorga | ohdamnallnics, does it have USB boot? | 07:14 |
| bjordan | ohdamnallnics, jim_p: thanks (this was for a friend, making the switch) | 07:14 |
| FluxD | Bsims, mkquist not working, here is what I am doing /home/fluxd/pisg/pisg (name of exe) is that right? | 07:14 |
| jim_p | ohdamnallnics: well you will need a ppc based cd to make the installation there. | 07:14 |
| phillipbeynon | jim_p: "What VGA" I'm unsure what your trying to get at here. it is a laptop, so I'm using the LCD. | 07:15 |
| mkquist | FluxD: did you set permissions for it? | 07:15 |
| ohdamnallnics | alex_mayorga, yeah, the problem is im using a PC, and i want to install ubuntu on the thumbdrive and boot the g3 with it, i already ahve the ppc install cd | 07:15 |
| joot | bjordan, it is recommended the you defrag win before doing the resize | 07:15 |
| FluxD | mkquist, yup ./pisg works fine | 07:15 |
| ohdamnallnics | jim_p, read above lol | 07:15 |
| jim_p | phillipbeynon: paste here the output of this lspci | grep VGA | 07:15 |
| cube | looks like only way for voice to text in ubuntu is wine with dragon natural speeking | 07:15 |
| tekirai | cane someone help with with an atheros wificard | 07:15 |
| alex_mayorga | is this already packaged http://www.broadcom.com/docs/linux_sta/README.txt I'm still stuck with a non working Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01) | 07:16 |
| bjordan | joot: is it worth restarting to do that, in your opinion? | 07:16 |
| mkquist | FluxD: hmm should work... | 07:16 |
| ohdamnallnics | can anyone give me an idea of how to copy the ppc iso onto a thumbdrive? | 07:16 |
| ssmy | bjordan: look around you can defrag the win partition form linux. google | 07:16 |
| joot | bjordan, I truly do not know just quoting conventional wisdom | 07:16 |

| ohdamnallnics | jim_p, i found an 8.04 port on the ubuntu site | 07:17 |
| alex_mayorga | ohdamnallnics, use an intrepid wubi install and create a USB startup disk from the iso | 07:17 |
| ssmy | ohdamnallnics: look for any old tutorial on making an ubuntu flash drive. also, i thought ubuntu hasn't had a ppc port since like 6.10 | 07:17 |

| Baatti | alex_mayorga ok, just a sec, I forget the exact command... something like sudo chmod somethingorother blacklist somethingelse | 07:20 |
| ssmy | ohdamnallnics: maybe. | 07:20 |

| jim_p | werdnum: use another gdm theme, or edit the .xml file that coresponds to that theme you use | 07:25 |

| RUMMY | now I run test of sound and | 08:26 |
| RUMMY | problem is in it | 08:26 |
| Surlent777 | courtjesterg_, it came with ubuntu, most likely | 08:26 |
| mrpockets | hey guys, how do I make the different partitions on my HDDs NOT show up as icons on the desktop? | 08:26 |
| courtjesterg_ | i use kubuntu | 08:26 |
| RUMMY | sound is such es drrrrrr | 08:26 |
| Gnea | RUMMY: i don't know, but the preferences->sound tab allows you to adjust things | 08:27 |
| courtjesterg_ | and have kubuntu konversation | 08:27 |
| Surlent777 | courtjesterg_, beats me then. I just upgraded last week and had all sorts of weird stuff happen | 08:27 |
| RUMMY | yes. and when I click test I hear sound | 08:27 |
| Flashtek | mrpockets: which desktop ? | 08:27 |
| matthew_ | courtjesterg_, sudo apt-get install xchat maybe | 08:27 |
| Surlent777 | courtjesterg_: including having new programs for some reason, while others disappeared | 08:27 |
| RUMMY | but then that sound don't stops | 08:27 |
| mrpockets | Flashtek, brand new 8.07 install | 08:27 |
| Gnea | even when you turn the volume down? | 08:27 |
| AbortD | haha damnit my comp keeps beeping | 08:27 |
| Flashtek | mrpockets: Gnome of KDE or what ? | 08:27 |
| mrpockets | Gnome | 08:27 |
| AbortD | ever since i replaced the power suppliest i hear beeps | 08:28 |
| AbortD | supply | 08:29 |
| Flashtek | AbortD: get a replacement PSU | 08:29 |
| Gnea | AbortD: did you build the system yourself or was it prefab? | 08:29 |
| eydaimon | anyway to start up gnome-terminal without borders? | 08:29 |
| AbortD | prefab | 08:30 |
| Surlent777 | Before I upgraded from 8.04.1 to 8.10, I had both KDE 3, and KDE 4. Then, I had neither, and most of the applications from KDE disappeared. (I use GNOME primarily, but keep other DE's around for kicks) Annoyed, I redownloaded the KDE stuff via Synaptic, and now in KDE the System Settings bit in the menu doesn't work, and neither does Konqueror. What can I do to fix these things? | 08:30 |
| AbortD | this is the second power supply i replaced | 08:30 |
| AbortD | too | 08:30 |
| Flashtek | mrpockets: I don't know the Gnome way of turning off the icons.. but in Kde there is a desktop options box.. | 08:30 |
| Gnea | AbortD: did you replace the PSU according to their standards? | 08:30 |
| tisch_ | just terminal no x environment? change the innitab file to run at 3, not 5. | 08:30 |
| AbortD | haha whats PSU? | 08:30 |
| AbortD | power supply unit? | 08:30 |
| Gnea | Power Supply Unit | 08:30 |
| AbortD | and prolly not :P | 08:30 |
| Gnea | therein lies the problem | 08:31 |
| AbortD | i said oh look my brothers computer he never uses | 08:31 |
| AbortD | could it cause bad things to happen? | 08:31 |
| Flashtek | AbortD: yup | 08:31 |
| AbortD | like? | 08:31 |
| Flashtek | AbortD: smoke... | 08:31 |
| AbortD | oh thats it? | 08:31 |
| Gnea | AbortD: ask yourself this: does sticking a fork into a power socket cause bad things to happen? | 08:31 |
| Flashtek | AbortD: no smoke without fire mate.. | 08:31 |
| AbortD | well i mean shit if the power supply catches fire i dont mind | 08:32 |
| AbortD | just buy another haha | 08:32 |
| chuckmoney | AbortD: basically, if you try to run too much off a PSU it will either underpower certain components or fry them entirely. You could lose anything except basically the case. | 08:32 |
| Gnea | there's no need for such language. | 08:32 |
| Flashtek | but if that fire toasts yor PC, then the rest of the house ? | 08:32 |
| tisch_ | psu's are cheap, only 25$ for shit one. 100$ for good one. | 08:32 |
| AbortD | then we get a new house and pc | 08:32 |
| Jordan_U | Flashtek: It IS a buyer's market | 08:32 |
| AbortD | but | 08:32 |
| Surlent777 | Look on newegg. I got a killer deal there once from some little company | 08:32 |
| bazhang | !language | 08:32 |
| AbortD | here is the thing | 08:32 |
| ubottu | Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 08:32 |
| AbortD | my comp only beeps when i perform certain actions though | 08:33 |
| Flashtek | AbortD: is the PSU 'special' ? | 08:33 |
| Gnea | such as? | 08:33 |
| chuckmoney | I just want to say I had no idea this channel was this much more...lively...at 2AM. | 08:33 |
| Flashtek | Sun Nov 16 08:33:48 GMT 2008 | 08:33 |
| Flashtek | it's not 2am thats why | 08:33 |
| AbortD | when i loaded irc and the the status window loaded stuff in it | 08:33 |
| Gnea | chuckmoney: we're international. | 08:33 |
| AbortD | or when i hold a key down and there is nothing to enter in | 08:34 |
| kindofabuzz | WTB apache guru =) | 08:34 |
| Gnea | kindofabuzz: didn't you get banned from #apache? | 08:34 |
| chuckmoney | It's 2:34AM central...and yeah, I figured that. After the last 8 years we Americans have had most of us don't have any sense of humor any more. | 08:34 |
| kindofabuzz | Gnea, lol yeah | 08:34 |
| Flashtek | AbortD: so, these beeps might acutally be right.. | 08:34 |
| AbortD | what do you mean right? | 08:35 |
| AbortD | it never made beeps before | 08:35 |
| AbortD | when i loaded irc | 08:35 |
| AbortD | only when i held keys | 08:35 |
| Flashtek | AbortD: well, system beeps will occour if you try to type in data when there is nowhere to type in to.. | 08:35 |
| chuckmoney | AbortD: X-Chat beeps when someone puts your name in a message, so maybe that's it. | 08:35 |
| Gnea | kindofabuzz: k... so you say you're willing to pay for help? | 08:35 |
| Flashtek | AbortD: they will also occour if things such as irc have been configured to beep at specific events.. | 08:35 |
| AbortD | nah im on mIRC booted into a windows partition | 08:35 |
| kindofabuzz | Gnea, no, that was just a ploy for help. i can give you a ber if you're local =) | 08:36 |
| Flashtek | !language | 08:36 |
| Surlent777 | anyone have any suggestions on my (admitedly somewhat trivial) KDE issues? | 08:36 |
| ubottu | Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 08:36 |
| kindofabuzz | beer* | 08:36 |
| chuckmoney | AbortD: well...no clue then. IIRC, mIRC simply highlights the message, and doesn't make sound. | 08:36 |
| Flashtek | Surlent777: problem ? | 08:36 |
| AbortD | why do people keep saying language | 08:36 |
| matthew_ | lol @ ploy for help | 08:36 |
| Surlent777 | Before I upgraded from 8.04.1 to 8.10, I had both KDE 3, and KDE 4. Then, I had neither, and most of the applications from KDE disappeared.

What can I do to fix these things? | 08:36 |
| AbortD | brb reboot | 08:36 |
| Surlent777 | I should mention that systemsettings in the Alt-F2 box works fine | 08:37 |
| Gnea | kindofabuzz: i suggest you get yourself unbanned :) | 08:37 |
| Jordan_U | Surlent777: Do you want the entire kubuntu desktop? | 08:37 |
| chuckmoney | Flashtek: please, please tell me I missed something and you didn't call language just because of the misspelled word "beer" ? | 08:37 |
| Flashtek | Surlent777: does konqueror work via the run command | 08:37 |
| Surlent777 | Jordan_U, no | 08:37 |
| kindofabuzz | Gnea, oh i doubth that will happen. i think i cussed an Op. | 08:37 |
| Surlent777 | Jordan_U, it doesn't | 08:37 |
| Flashtek | chuckmoney: the !language was for the use of the word "Windows" | 08:37 |
| webPragmatist | hi, I have an 8800 GTS and for whatever reason I can't boot using nvidia 177 drivers | 08:37 |
| Surlent777 | hahaha | 08:37 |
| Gnea | kindofabuzz: well, you're not going to find any help on apache in here | 08:38 |
| chuckmoney | Flashtek: then I agree :) | 08:38 |
| Jordan_U | Surlent777: What doesn't do what? | 08:38 |
| kindofabuzz | Gnea, so you were going to help if i payed? that's just wrong man | 08:38 |
| Flashtek | webPragmatist: use a different driver then ? | 08:38 |
| Gnea | kindofabuzz: you should've been more respectful. | 08:38 |
| Surlent777 | Jordan_U, Konqueror doesn't work via Run, or via the K Menu | 08:38 |
| webPragmatist | Flashtek: I have tried 173 too... | 08:38 |
| Gnea | kindofabuzz: it is? | 08:38 |
| Flashtek | webPragmatist: does that work ? | 08:38 |
| webPragmatist | no | 08:38 |
| Jordan_U | Surlent777: Wrong nick :) | 08:38 |
| kindofabuzz | Gnea, Thumbs shoud have been more respectful | 08:38 |
| Surlent777 | ? | 08:38 |
| Surlent777 | oh | 08:38 |
| Surlent777 | whoops | 08:39 |
| Flashtek | brb.. need a shirt on.. | 08:39 |
| Flashtek | webPragmatist: are you getting errors ? | 08:39 |
| webPragmatist | ya let me post the report | 08:39 |
| Gnea | kindofabuzz: clearly, you were wrong. now, you will have to wait. we support ubuntu in here, we are not #apache. | 08:39 |
| kindofabuzz | Gnea, i know that, so quit talking about it. | 08:39 |

| webPragmatist | Flashtek: I have this failsafeX-backup tar | 08:41 |
| webPragmatist | http://pastebin.ca/1257503 | 08:42 |
| webPragmatist | those are the pastes of the three files | 08:42 |
| webPragmatist | i'll brb I guess I am trying 93 too | 08:43 |
| Flashtek | looks like a borked config to me.. | 08:43 |
| Che1 | 绝对新手提问：UNUNTU8.04 不能自动挂载U盘了 | 08:44 |
| Surlent777 | Flashtek, to answer the (far) above question, Konqueror doesn't work via Run, or via the K Menu. It's just dead in the water, and System Settings in the K Menu doesn't work, even though it does via the Run box. | 08:45 |
| Surlent777 | just minor annoyances, really, but I'm on a fixing spree and these are needing to be fixed | 08:45 |
| Surlent777 | I've already tackled the five minute shutdown deal, restoring most of KDE, and getting Flash functionality back | 08:46 |
| devslashnull | i have an hfs+ formatted usb drive when i plug it into ubuntu and right click a folder and choose properties i get an error some content unreadable. i can read everything just fine on my mac. any idea what causes this ? | 08:46 |
| Flashtek | Surlent777: does sound a little borked.. when you reloaded KDE did it fully reconfigure its self ? | 08:46 |
| red_ | hello everyone | 08:46 |
| red_ | i seriously need help for my ubuntu gutsy | 08:47 |
| Flashtek | red_: 'ello | 08:47 |
| Flashtek | devslashnull: the hfs+ ? | 08:47 |
| red_ | hello Flashtek | 08:47 |
| devslashnull | yes | 08:47 |
| chuckmoney | devslashnull: You may need to install an automount daemon. Otherwise, you may need to try mounting it in a terminal manually using sudo. | 08:47 |
| Surlent777 | Flashtek: Not really sure. Some config files must have been leftover after the upgrade mass-murdered KDE 3 and 4... | 08:47 |
| devslashnull | chuckmoney, i did mount it manually | 08:47 |
| chuckmoney | devslashnull: as root? | 08:47 |
| red_ | ok, i need serious help about my mouse icon | 08:47 |
| red_ | or about my mouse HOVER | 08:47 |
| UnknownUser56 | I think I downloaded the wrong iso | 08:47 |
| devslashnull | chuckmoney, no using sudo mount .... | 08:47 |
| jim_p | has anyone ever used wifiradar? i cant wait to ditch wicd as well :P | 08:48 |
| AbortD | its about UO time :D | 08:48 |
| chuckmoney | devslashnull: same thing. ok...well...did you manually provide a filesystem type, i.e. sudo mount -t hfs /dev/sd... | 08:48 |
| devslashnull | no | 08:48 |
| devslashnull | it autodetects so theres no need | 08:48 |
| devslashnull | it mounts fine | 08:48 |
| red_ | everytime i HOVER into things in ubuntu using my mouse pointer, it displays only a black box | 08:48 |
| red_ | no text is displayed | 08:48 |
| chuckmoney | devslashnull: note that Ubuntu doesn't understand hfs+ (not linux at all) but only hfs. the only difference is journaling and that can be ignored. | 08:49 |
| red_ | does anyone know how to fix this? | 08:49 |
| devslashnull | chuckmoney, i know that | 08:49 |
| red_ | everytime i HOVER into things in ubuntu using my mouse pointer, it displays only a black box | 08:49 |
| red_ | no text is displayed | 08:49 |
| Surlent777 | red_: Are you using a custom theme? | 08:49 |
| UnknownUser56 | http://i412.photobucket.com/albums/pp205/None_0x04/scr.jpg is what the extracted files are ,I assume I downloaded the wrong iso because there's an exe file | 08:50 |
| chuckmoney | devslashnull: well...if you give it the filesystem type along with the mount command, see if you can open it then. if that fails, you may want to install...hmm...maybe hfsprogs or such | 08:50 |
| red_ | yes, i think | 08:50 |
| red_ | yes Surlent777 | 08:50 |
| devslashnull | chuckmoney, again i can access the file system just fine | 08:50 |
| red_ | with compiz enabled. or desktop effects enabled Surlent777 | 08:50 |
| webPragmatist | Flashtek: any ideas why the nvidia drivers aren't working? | 08:50 |
| Flashtek | webPragmatist: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 08:50 |
| chuckmoney | devslashnull: so what's your issue? you can open the drive but just can't get the properties dialog to work? | 08:50 |
| Surlent777 | red_: I don't remember if themes can affect the colors of the hintbox, but look in Appearance, and look at the colors of your theme | 08:51 |
| devslashnull | chuckmoney, no | 08:51 |
| webPragmatist | Flashtek: ok | 08:51 |
| red_ | @ Surlent777 oh, wait. i'll check it out. | 08:51 |
| webPragmatist | Flashtek: and then? | 08:51 |
| devslashnull | chuckmoney, i already know the size of the folders on my drive which i wrote down in osx. in ubuntu when i choose properties, the file size of each folder is smaller and it says "some contents unreadable" | 08:51 |
| Flashtek | webPragmatist: restart X.. | 08:51 |
| rivig | hi.. i've got tv out working and can move my mouse to the tv.. but when i try to move a window to the tv it only switches the virtual screen to the one on the right.. am i missing something? | 08:51 |
| red_ | @ Surlent777 its working definitely fine now! | 08:52 |
| webPragmatist | Flashtek: is that using 177 or should i have activated that again somehow | 08:52 |
| red_ | thanks alot Surlent777! | 08:52 |
| Gnea | rivig: are you trying to drag it or send it via right-click? | 08:52 |
| Surlent777 | red_ no problem, heh | 08:52 |
| rivig | drag | 08:52 |
| AbortD | Gnea my comp beaps when system messages show up | 08:52 |
| red_ | @ Surlent777 you call it hintbox right? I had no idea custom colors affected the hintbox | 08:52 |
| Gnea | rivig: that only seems to work right in enlightenment... try right-clicking and then send to desktop # | 08:52 |
| webPragmatist | Flashtek: sorry i have never configured x before... only a shell gui | 08:53 |
| red_ | if i can't change the colors, how am i suppose to get my own colors? | 08:53 |
| Surlent777 | AbortD: Isn't that supposed to happen? The system beep event or something? | 08:53 |
| chuckmoney | devslashnull: well that's a far cry from what you said earlier. either way, it sounds like maybe you need to drop to a terminal and run a chown on those files, but that may make them unreadable under OSX. Did multiple users on your mac system save the files? also, did you maybe pull out the drive without waiting on the ejectprocess on the OSX box to finish? | 08:53 |
| Gnea | AbortD: weird. what happens if you type this in a terminal: xset b off | 08:53 |
| Surlent777 | red_: I guess try experimenting. Just be careful of whichever box affected that hintbox thing... | 08:53 |
| red_ | alright. thanks again! i owe you that much! | 08:54 |
| === Saroset_ is now known as Saroset | ||
| AbortD | im on windows Gnea :P | 08:54 |
| Flashtek | webPragmatist: it reconfigures the xorg config file.. the nvidia drivers are called from there.. | 08:54 |
| Surlent777 | red_ There are a ton of custom themes done, so it's possible. Look around on gnome-look.org for ideas, I guess. | 08:54 |
| devslashnull | chuckmoney, ive been saying the same thing the entire time. i dont want to chown cause the os is mounted as read only. i only have one user in os x. i didnt eject it early. i always safely eject | 08:54 |
| Gnea | AbortD: that doesn't really help the situation now does it :P | 08:54 |
| AbortD | haha no | 08:54 |
| Gnea | :) | 08:55 |
| AbortD | i dont really get beeps when im on ubuntu | 08:55 |
| rivig | gnea: the menu only shows 4 entries for the tft | 08:55 |
| Gnea | rivig: what about if you try and show it on all desktops? does it display on the tv then? | 08:55 |
| chuckmoney | devslashnull: well this is easy to fix. go to a terminal and unmount it. then, when you run the mount command, do this: mount -t hfs -o uid=1000,gid=1000 /dev/sd... | 08:55 |
| devslashnull | chuckmoney, i did that when i mounted it | 08:56 |
| devslashnull | chuckmoney, but when i mount, it is read only since hfs+ is only supported as read only | 08:56 |
| rivig | gnea: no.. only on the tft.. strange | 08:56 |
| chuckmoney | devslashnull: 1 sec, let me see what I can find on this. we have a Mac Mini here at the office so I'll see if I can duplicate this. (I live upstairs so the office is always available :) ) | 08:57 |
| Gnea | rivig: what video card is it? nvidia or ati? | 08:57 |
| UnknownUser56 | does you installation disk for ubunto 8.10 i386 identical to this | 08:57 |
| UnknownUser56 | http://s412.photobucket.com/albums/pp205/None_0x04/?action=view¤t=scr.jpg | 08:57 |
| rivig | gnea: nvidia closed source | 08:57 |
| Gnea | rivig: okay... are you trying to do the twinview thing with xinerama? | 08:58 |
| UnknownUser56 | On a public pc ,try forgetting the link before the one I just posted | 08:58 |
| Gnea | UnknownUser56: everything in here is logged. permanently. | 08:58 |
| rivig | gnea: no.. i configured everything in xorg.conf and wanted to move a vlc window to the tv screen | 08:58 |
| UnknownUser56 | yea I know,I deleted that image nyways :) | 08:59 |
| Gnea | rivig: should be able to... | 08:59 |
| UnknownUser56 | I'm just curious as I think I downloaded the wrong iso | 08:59 |
| faryshta | two questions. Have someone try the beta of XFCE 4.6 and someone could install frostwire with OpenJDK? | 08:59 |
| Gnea | !wubi | UnknownUser56 | 08:59 |
| ubottu | UnknownUser56: Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. | 09:00 |
| Surlent777 | meh, Wubi has given me nothing but trouble | 09:00 |
| Gnea | UnknownUser56: wubi is a new addition to the 8.10 disks, it's perfectly normal | 09:00 |
| Gnea | Surlent777: you're the first i've heard of any complaints. | 09:00 |
| MegaJim | UnknownUser56 check the iso file against its md5 from the release page | 09:00 |
| Surlent777 | Gnea: Really? I've tried using it twice now, and both times were really messy and it didn't install properly | 09:00 |
| Gnea | Surlent777: works fine here, each and everytime. | 09:01 |
| UnknownUser56 | will do | 09:01 |
| Surlent777 | Gnea: Madness. I tried it when it first came out; maybe it's better now | 09:02 |
| Gnea | Surlent777: last time i installed it was less than 1 month ago. | 09:02 |
| overlord_tm | can someone help me with vpn? Im trying to connect to network in my job via pptp vpn. I have set up everything and it connects without errors, but then internet stop working and i cant ping anything in remote network. DNS also stop working. Is important to have different networks (eg. 192.168.1.* and 192.168.2.*) even if im connecting client-network? | 09:02 |
| Surlent777 | Also, I am fairly certain that Synatpic's "reinstall package" option is entirely useless, as it doesn't seem to fix my Konqueror issues... | 09:04 |

| texta | anyone played around with dmraid? | 09:06 |
| Surlent777 | ......ok what. What is this madness? Running "konqueror" in a command line or the box opens up konqueror, but clicking the Konqueror icon in the Run box gives me a message saying KDEInit could not launch /usr/lib/kde4/bin/kfmclient | 09:06 |
| chuckmoney | devslashnull: ok, try installing these packages: hfsplus hfsutils hfsprogs and then mount the drive again. At this point, short of chowning the files, there is no other answer to fix this. According to both the man page and my own test here, HFS support is read-write but is just like ntfs, i.e. unless you give the "rw" option at mount, it will mount read only by default | 09:07 |
| Surlent777 | Do I have two different versions floating around? | 09:07 |
| chuckmoney | devslashnull: if that fails, then...good luck. maybe someone else who has spent a lot more time on a Mac can help you. | 09:07 |
| webPragmatist | Flashtek: ok so .... that pretty much put me back at defaults? | 09:08 |

| relik | Hello, i installed Ubuntu today, and installed truecrypt. When creating or mounting an encrypted drive i get this error message: device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument. In kern.log i see this error message: device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table. This seems to be a bug in device-mapper but i don;t see any solution. But in debian, with a similar kernel it works without problems. Any solutions here? | 09:11 |
| chuckmoney | Iron_Blood: you also may want to be sure you have poirt 25 for outgoing forwarded. Else, other users outside your network won't be able to send OR recieve mail. | 09:11 |
| ntndo | simple question, I keep forgetting where the fonts folder is. | 09:11 |
| chuckmoney | ntndo: maybe /usr/share/fonts ? | 09:13 |
| ntndo | thank you | 09:13 |
| chuckmoney | ntndo: as a general rule any kind of shared resource - icons, wallpaper, fonts, etc - is somewhere under /usr/share | 09:13 |

| mnemoc | hi, how can one resume a do-release-upgrade if got networkless with the crash? | 09:14 |
| luddite | hey - i cant "sudo modprobe p4_clockmod" it returns this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/71675/ | 09:14 |
| ntndo | also, does Ubuntu support .otf fonts? | 09:14 |
| bcarm17 | hello | 09:15 |
| Surlent777 | hi | 09:16 |
| bcarm17 | does anyone noe a good linux distro for a PIII 733 | 09:16 |
| chuckmoney | ntndo: not sure. Font support is usually per-program. I.e. OpenOffice might but GIMP may not. As for the window manager, GNOME, I don't know if it does or not, but if you go to System > Preferences > Appearance you can attempt to set it to a .otf font there. | 09:16 |
| chuckmoney | bcarm17: nothing personal, but you're asking us to reccomend a distro...in #ubuntu. Kinda a biased crowd here. ;) | 09:17 |
| bcarm17 | i noe | 09:17 |
| bcarm17 | a ubuntu distro | 09:17 |
| chuckmoney | bcarm17: that said, I have an ASUS EEE 701 and it runs fine with stock Ubuntu 8.04 (aside from wireless driver issues) and it's a 651MHz Celeron | 09:17 |
| Iron_Blood | I want port 143 and... (Can`t remember) | 09:18 |
| luddite | for a p3 id actually put on a tiny xp sp3 | 09:18 |
| luddite | old hardware would be supported completely | 09:18 |
| Iron_Blood | what ports are the right ones for SMTP | 09:18 |
| bcarm17 | that said also i only have 256MB of 133MHz ram | 09:18 |

| chuckmoney | If you want it to run a little faster, try XUbuntu. Generally, XUbuntu runs faster on slower systems. KUbuntu runs about the same as Ubuntu. For obvious reasons, MYthUbuntu will run slower but works better for a media center. | 09:18 |
| bcarm17 | the eee pc run ddr | 09:18 |
| mrpockets | so i just installed 8.04 on a Dell | 09:19 |
| Iron_Blood | port 25? | 09:19 |
| chuckmoney | Iron_Blood: 25 is for SMTP, 110 for POP3, 143 for IMAP, all assuming you're not using SSL | 09:19 |
| mrpockets | and I don't seem to fidn any packages in the package manager that i can in othe rUbuntu package managors | 09:19 |
| luddite | Xubuntu is just the kde isnt it. | 09:19 |
| mrpockets | like Avant window manager, or Compizconfig settings manager | 09:19 |
| Surlent777 | pockets: did you hit the Refresh button? DId you go into the options and turn on all the repositories? | 09:20 |
| chuckmoney | bcarm17: it's your choice, but as I said, try XUbuntu, it will be slightly faster. Any should run fine so long as you're not trying to run 50 things at once. | 09:20 |
| Iron_Blood | chuckmoney: ty. I forgot to forward them. *feels stupid* | 09:20 |

| alexander | I need help with SWIG, which works under ubuntu 7.04, and partially doesn't work with ubuntu 8.10. | 09:30 |
| alexander | For example, wrapping an interface including "#include <climits>" give the error "test.h:3:22: error: climits: No such file or directory" in 8.10, while in 7.04 climits is found in the standard header directories. | 09:30 |
| alexander | Of course I can fix this with a -I flag to SWIG, but there are more subtle problems indicating that SWIG uses different compiler settings than g++ in 8.10, although it worked in 7.04 without changes. | 09:30 |
| alexander | last sentence should have been: | 09:31 |
| chuckmoney | matitaccia: I believe Ubuntu actually commissioned an artist to do the Heron wallpaper...though maybe the artist just donated the art. The big draw about linux has always been that anyone can contribute their time and effort to make it better. The wallpaper shows you don't have to be able to code to contribute :) | 09:31 |
| alexander | Of course I can fix this with a -I flag to SWIG, but there are more subtle problems indicating that SWIG uses different compiler settings than g++ in 8.10, although it worked in 7.04 without changes. | 09:31 |
| matitaccia | chuckmoney, yeah! That's good... what should I do now: I wanted to see if there could be any compatibility problems. I have seen that there is this "Hardware testing" feat, should I try that? | 09:33 |
| chuckmoney | matitaccia: sure. The main thing you'll find with linux is that Linux can open almost any file windows can, but almost always using a different program to do it. | 09:33 |
| |Qvist| | Hello. When ubuntu has started I have to enter a "Key ring" passowrd. Where is the settings for automatic login, so I don't havce to enter the password every time I start ubuntu? | 09:33 |
| chuckmoney | matitaccia: for example, you can open microsoft word documents (and save them) but you'll have to use OpenOffice to do it. | 09:34 |
| chuckmoney | |Qvist|: maybe it's under System>Administration>Authorizations | 09:34 |

| ubottu | Nick2: envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) we suggest you use envyng if every other (official/supported) method fails! it can have various results from works, to fails!!! if you want the very latest drivers from the manufacturer you use them at your own risk | 09:44 |

| JOeSaVy | should i install ati catalyst drivers a virtual mounted ubuntu? | 09:48 |

| histo | JOeSaVy: what doyou mean by virtual mounted? | 09:50 |
| Axz | Hi all | 09:50 |
| Axz | where to find tutorial to install Flash on my 64bit Ubuntu 8.10 | 09:50 |
| JOeSaVy | i mean virtual drive, sorry | 09:50 |
| JaphMalik | Azureus: in Firefox: Edit > Preferences then click on the Content tab | 09:51 |
| fosco_ | Axz: no tutorial needed, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 09:51 |
| JOeSaVy | my core OS i Vista Home Premium, and i installed ubuntu using virtual box | 09:51 |
| JOeSaVy | wanted to learn more about it | 09:51 |
| chuckmoney | Azureus: there's actually a way to change that in Firefox Preferences. As for the choice of font, pick whichever looks good to you. That's just a matter of personal preference. Numbus Sans is a good choice for the "Times New Roman" look. | 09:51 |

| Axz | anyhow thanks fosco_ | 09:53 |
| histo | JOeSaVy: the virtual box ubuntu machine is not using your native hardware like that. Its a "virtual" machine | 09:53 |
| mojo | maybe the philosophy of humanity to others tends to lead toward a newbie friendlyness, also the popularity though i think the community makes it welcoming and therefore popular | 09:53 |
| chuckmoney | mojo: Deja Vu is nice, looks more like Arial though. I use the default...whatever that is...at 2880x900 resolution with soom set to "smaller" because I'm young and have good eyes :) | 09:54 |

| CorpseFeeder | ok.. I worked out that my problem is not with power management, but with the screensaver itself. every time the screen tries to fade to black before starting the screen saver, the screen suddenly lights up again before the screen saver can start. All the screen savers seem to work if I click preview but none seem to start if the computer is left idle for the specified time. What gives? | 10:24 |

| lorenzosu | I upgraded to 8.10, which screwed up my ubuntu-studio stuff. Finally got it back to work by uninstalling (purge) all the ubuntu-studio stuff and re-installing.

| nedwell | What is the proper way to use Skype, Adobe Reader, Google Earth, etc. under Ubuntu 8.10 amd64 while still allowing other 64 bit apps to work as expected? Do I just install ia32-libs or is it trickier than that? Thanks! | 11:04 |
| kanhiya78 | DIFH-iceroot: what to select there to configure your display resolution | 11:04 |
| mysticfrost123_ | any ideas on the sudden logout after upgrading to 8.10 | 11:04 |
| Compu_Chip | Maybe in the mean time someone has come in who can answer this question: I have an Acer laptop with Realtek wireless card. I tried to get it to work on v 8.04 through ndiswrapper, but although it now recognizes the card, it does not connect. | 11:04 |
| Myrtti | neo644: enable medibuntu and you can get atleast skype working without hassle | 11:05 |
| DIFH-iceroot | kanhiya78: edit xorg.cnf or the properties on your desktop/system-settings | 11:05 |
| kanhiya78 | DIFH-iceroot: i mean to say my display resolution | 11:05 |
| Myrtti | !medibuntu | nedwell | 11:05 |
| ubottu | nedwell: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 11:05 |

| v4vijayakumar | hersto, thanks it works.. | 11:11 |
| lorenzosu | I upgraded to 8.10, which screwed up my ubuntu-studio stuff. Finally got it back to work by uninstalling (purge) all the ubuntu-studio stuff and re-installing. Trouble is that if I boot the linux-rt my WPA wireless network doesn't work :(. I works perfectly with the generic kernel. | 11:11 |
| Compu_Chip | It worked perfectly in 6.06 but the upgrade to 8.x has screwed it up badly | 11:11 |
| sephonicus | looking for info on supplying a fresh ubuntu install with all current security updates from a pre-downloaded source (perhaps a burned cd). anyone know of any sources of info? | 11:12 |

| st3ph | if i want reinstall system-tools it says E: system-tools-backends: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 | 11:12 |

| TehEnergy | think^ | 11:12 |
| sephonicus | yeah, I'm having trouble finding anything about it | 11:13 |
| TehEnergy | You will have to download the core operating system first | 11:13 |
| mysticfrost123_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/72818/ | 11:13 |

| regebro | I'm trying to get my MacBook to boot *something* without waiting for 20 seconds first. | 11:16 |
| st3ph | Myrtti, i am back in dualboot and used wubi to install ubuntu, what that the mistake? | 11:17 |

| roxan | DarkKnight, it reconfiugres your x. your resolutrion might be then fixed | 11:21 |
| roxan | Compu_Chip, you are having apipa | 11:21 |
| DarkKnight | roxan; my screen reolution is not right...on windows its 1024x768....but here i dont get this screen resolution..i get max abt 830 or somewhere | 11:21 |

| rien-ne-va-plus | magnetron: well, since i can print via the CUPS server from other windows applications but not from office 2007, i dont have an idea what the problem could be. when i print from office using a postscript pdf creator it works as well | 11:21 |
| st3ph | Myrtti, http://paste.ubuntu.com/72823/ | 11:22 |

| Compu_Chip | magnetron I think the problem is more basic: in my 6.06 Dapper version wlan auto-configured without problems. But in 8.x which I'm running now I have to use ndiswrapper to get the card to be recognized in the first place, and strange things happen | 11:23 |
| rien-ne-va-plus | hm i've got a students version, ill see how to contact them | 11:23 |

| bas | I have Intel GMA 950 | 11:30 |
| roxan | DarkKnight, use commonsense too | 11:30 |
| fenix1189 | my linux wont install | 11:30 |
| roxan | wos, whats the problem after plugging the cable | 11:30 |
| TehEnergy | Ubuntu Linux? | 11:30 |
| liye | Hello everybody. I have 2 Ethernet cards, now i want to use one of them to share a NFS to a ARM development board, so that i can access internet and also connect to embedded board at the same time. Could you guys give me some recommendations? I find myself lost direction~ | 11:30 |
| fenix1189 | ya | 11:30 |
| GFree | Intel GMA 965 for me, same issue | 11:30 |
| Compu_Chip | roxan yes, problems with wireless :) the AP is correctly setup though, my Vista computer can connect without problems, and so could Ubuntu 6.06 before the upgrade. | 11:30 |
| TehEnergy | How are you trying to install it? | 11:30 |
| TehEnergy | Via CD? | 11:30 |
| wos | roxan well where the heck do i go after that? | 11:30 |
| fenix1189 | it says i/o error sr0 | 11:30 |
| GFree | bas: have you tried disabling compiz before running any games? | 11:30 |
| bas | yes | 11:30 |
| roxan | wos, what do you want to do | 11:30 |
| DarkKnight | roxan; i have no problm wid keyboard...i have problem with my screen resolution.... | 11:31 |
| TehEnergy | How much ram does the system you are trying to install it have? | 11:31 |
| GFree | how long can you run a game before it freezes? | 11:31 |
| fenix1189 | 1 gb | 11:31 |
| wos | roxan i want to share files between 2 computers | 11:31 |
| roxan | DarkKnight, its just asking for the layout. | 11:31 |
| matitaccia | ... ubuntu installation is taking looong time! it's almost one hour that it tells me "installing system"... and I don't think that my system is so old. It's a laptop, centrino chipset, 1.8ghz, 512mb of ram.... | 11:31 |
| roxan | wos, then that should have been your question/ | 11:31 |
| wos | ok | 11:31 |
| bas | I will try to download newer drivers | 11:31 |
| roxan | matitaccia, may be cd problem | 11:31 |
| wos | how do i share files between 2 computers on a network on ubuntu anyone? | 11:31 |
| Myrtti | !ics | wos | 11:32 |
| ubottu | wos: If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php | 11:32 |
| st3ph | Myrtti, what can i do with the systemtools why it wont let me install the things i need | 11:32 |
| matitaccia | roxan, yeah... I think too. It wouldn't be the first time that this crappy cd player fails. | 11:32 |
| fosco_ | fenix1189: sr0 error means bad CD, download ISO and burn it again | 11:32 |
| wos | Myrtti: that has nothing to do with what i asked | 11:32 |
| skeeel | hello hello | 11:32 |
| DarkKnight | roxan; XKB rule set to use....watdo i enter here | 11:32 |
| Myrtti | wos: oh, sorry, files | 11:32 |
| Myrtti | wos: both linux? | 11:32 |
| fenix1189 | and if fails again? | 11:32 |
| wos | Myrtti: yes | 11:32 |
| matitaccia | roxan, probably it keeps failing and retrying. 54% right now. | 11:32 |
| roxan | DarkKnight, what are the options | 11:33 |
| fosco_ | fenix1189: then it could mean bad CD-ROM drive | 11:33 |
| GFree | this is certainly one of the more busy IRC channels I've visited | 11:33 |
| Myrtti | wos: secure network (lan) or Internet in between? | 11:33 |
| wos | lan | 11:33 |
| roxan | matitaccia, why dont you check cd for defects | 11:33 |
| fenix1189 | well my cd-rom works fine | 11:33 |
| matitaccia | roxan, is there a way to install linux from and usb stick? | 11:33 |
| skeeel | all time i try to restart X (by the menu or ctrl+alt+tab) i just get a black screen , i need to reboot to regain access to X any idea ? | 11:33 |
| Myrtti | wos: nfs has been used for decades. | 11:33 |
| fenix1189 | almsot all my cds works | 11:33 |
| roxan | wos, http://www.simplehelp.net/2007/05/19/how-to-share-files-and-folders-in-ubuntu/ | 11:33 |
| DarkKnight | no options...just a textbox with a default value xorg | 11:33 |
| Compu_Chip | roxan it also says "Access point: Not associated" in iwconfig, while I have set the ESSID to my AP | 11:33 |
| wos | !nfs | 11:33 |
| ubottu | nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. | 11:33 |
| matitaccia | roxan, I don't think the problem is the cd itself. it's the cd player which isn't working properly. | 11:33 |
| roxan | Commie_Cary, maybe key problem | 11:34 |
| bmm | Hi. I'm trying to set up rsnapshot and want to have a user who is not root to be able to access all files. The user is already in the root group, but that does not seem to solve it. What is the best solution for this? | 11:34 |
| roxan | matitaccia, hmm you can boot live cd from usb too | 11:34 |
| Myrtti | wos: it may not be as secure as sftp or samba or others, but it's fast | 11:34 |
| Edward123 | matitaccia, laptop cdrom? | 11:34 |
| mikele | Someone use Mercury Messenger on Ubuntu 8.10? | 11:34 |
| matitaccia | Edward123, yeah. | 11:34 |
| dreixel | I set up ubuntu on a normal monitor, and after having it installed moved it to my tv. The tv has vga input, so it uses exactly the same output as when i used the monitor. But now I get no image (past the startup phase, so when X starts). Any idea on how I can fix this? Thanks. | 11:34 |
| roxan | !ask | mikearr | 11:35 |
| ubottu | mikearr: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 11:35 |
| roxan | !ask | mikele | 11:35 |
| ubottu | mikele: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 11:35 |
| matitaccia | Edward123, ... I would have already changed it, if it wasn't a notebook. | 11:35 |
| Edward123 | matitaccia, yeah those are weak. did you burn the disc yourself? | 11:35 |
| lorenzosu | I upgraded to 8.10, which screwed up my ubuntu-studio stuff. Finally got it back to work by uninstalling (purge) all the ubuntu-studio stuff and re-installing. Trouble is that if I boot the linux-rt my WPA wireless network doesn't work :(. I works perfectly with the generic kernel. | 11:35 |
| matitaccia | A friend of mine did... but happened also with the ones that I burn. Or with normal dvd (films). | 11:35 |
| fenix1189 | what version of ubuntu should i use | 11:35 |
| fenix1189 | 8.10? | 11:36 |
| matitaccia | A friend of mine did... but happened also with the ones that I burn. Or with normal dvd (films). Edward123 | 11:36 |
| fosco_ | fenix1189: what you want | 11:36 |
| DarkKnight | roxan; wat now?? | 11:36 |
| wos | sftp! | 11:36 |
| mikele | I have problem with Tray Icon of Mercury Messenger on Ubuntu 8.10 (64 bit) [sun-java6 installed] | 11:36 |
| skeeel | dreixel, not a tv pro for X , but as far i understand you setup X for you monitor resolution wich is not the same as your tv resolution | 11:36 |
| roxan | DarkKnight, where are you stuck? | 11:36 |
| matitaccia | Damn, is this channel crowded. | 11:36 |
| wos | !sftp | 11:36 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about sftp | 11:36 |
| fenix1189 | i need know good burner and what ver i should use | 11:36 |
| DarkKnight | roxan; XKB rule set to use | 11:36 |
| Edward123 | matitaccia, hrm, well i was going to suggest burning the disc again at as low a write speed as possible. i've done that to get around problems with the crappy cd-rom drives they put on rack mountable servers | 11:36 |
| fenix1189 | like witch works the best | 11:36 |
| wos | Myrtti: whats sftp | 11:36 |
| dreixel | skeeel: yes, could be. how do i reconfigure? | 11:36 |
| roxan | DarkKnight, what are the options | 11:36 |
| Freku | just try 8.10 | 11:36 |
| Edward123 | matitaccia, but yeah if you didn't burn it yourself check out usb installation - i haven't done it myself but i'm sure it's possible | 11:36 |
| dreixel | skeeel? dpkg-reconfigure didn't help | 11:37 |
| wos | !samba | 11:37 |
| ubottu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. Also see https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/212098 | 11:37 |
| skeeel | dreixel, oh ... don't know then sorry | 11:37 |
| DarkKnight | roxan; no options...only text box | 11:37 |
| Myrtti | wos: secured way, with encryption. Can be used over the Internet. Might be a hassle though | 11:37 |
| fenix1189 | what burning software should i use? | 11:37 |
| roxan | DarkKnight, can you just skip or use default value? | 11:37 |
| roxan | fenix1189, brasero, nero | 11:38 |
| wos | Myrtti: why would i do that when i have an encrypted wireless network? | 11:38 |
| matitaccia | Edward123, yeah.... I think that those are the options that I have. Now It's still running so I will leave it until he finishes... if it finish. If not... then I'll have to try to slower speed or usb. | 11:38 |
| roxan | wos you cry for the keyk | 11:38 |
| === taglag is now known as passwdtab | ||
| DarkKnight | roxan;;kk its askin me keyboard variant... | 11:38 |
| wos | dont use racial slurs pls | 11:38 |
| matitaccia | Edward123, ... I could also use an external hdd via usb.... | 11:38 |
| roxan | DarkKnight, didnt you auto detect it? | 11:39 |
| Myrtti | wos: I've got nfs. sftp encrypts everything and transferring files is really slow (about 1/10 of the speed of nfs) with it | 11:39 |
| Edward123 | now... i don't suppose anyone knows of a repo that has all the stuff in it i need for ushare? i can't seem to find a repo that contains for example libgsml | 11:39 |

| Pirate_Hunter | anyone knows how i can turn one of my machines into a game station, Im not looking for anything impressive just want to be able to log in from another system and play the emulator games on my system, is that possible (that is what i think means by game station)? | 11:40 |

| gentlemen | Hello World, I have an issue with my wireless connection in Ubuntu 8.10. My wireless card is working but I cannot see my own wireless router to connect to, but I can see my neighbours routers. The weird thing is that if I log into the Windows Partition on the laptop that Ubuntu is running on I can see my network. Any suggestions to help me out? | 11:45 |
| Myrtti | kanhiya78: which drivers are you trying to install? | 11:45 |
| matitaccia | are codecs installed already installed with ubuntu? | 11:45 |
| LucasVieites | Edward123: there's only that one and libmysqlclient15-dev in my repositories | 11:45 |
| Myrtti | gentlemen: do you have atheros as your chip? | 11:45 |
| fosco_ | matitaccia: some of them, but not all | 11:45 |

| kanhiya78 | Myrtti: sis vga 072008 | 11:46 |
| gentlemen | Myrtti: don't know what it is to be quite honest. | 11:46 |
| Myrtti | kanhiya78: and what's wrong with the drivers supplied by default= | 11:46 |
| Edward123 | LucasVieites, do you have the normal repositories setup in your ubuntu config? | 11:46 |
| DarkKnight | lazyfire; how do i edit it | 11:46 |

| Dr_willis | Azureus, proberly dont really ned to. :) but ive had very few hassles with 64bit.. so im using it now | 12:50 |

| noiz | in sound preferences its selected... | 12:54 |
| Dr_willis | noiz, so you mean to say you are using usb-headphones instead of a normal sound card? | 12:54 |
| eightyeight | janno: grub is just a boot loader. it can boot linux, unix, windows, and other oses | 12:54 |
| noiz | yes | 12:54 |
| eightyeight | janno: just select the windows item entry | 12:54 |
| noiz | well dunno in sound preferences i havce selected c-media.. | 12:54 |
| janno | i selected you genius | 12:54 |
| janno | and it loaded grub | 12:55 |
| ewproctor | Hello | 12:55 |
| eightyeight | janno: then your menu.lst isn't correct genius | 12:55 |
| ewproctor | Just put 8.10 on my laptop, and it is telling me I can install nvidia and I have legacy. | 12:55 |
| UnknownUser56 | I'm going to repeat just incase someone didn't catch it- http://i412.photobucket.com/albums/pp205/None_0x04/error.jpg is what I see when trying the live cd for ubuntu 8.10 desktop | 12:55 |
| luinux | hello | 12:56 |
| janno | What ever you say genius | 12:56 |
| Dr_willis | noiz, you would still be using 'alsa' as the sound system. Unless theres somthing really weird on your setup. | 12:56 |
| ewproctor | Will that work? Has it been fixed maybe? | 12:56 |
| Brauckzilla | dr_willis : i have a similar prob to noiz...though I am using 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01) | 12:56 |
| Brauckzilla | No sound at all | 12:56 |

| ubottu | Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as TOR due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 13:16 |
| Dr_willis | Theres several tor related extensions for firefox. i recall | 13:17 |
| wobblywu | Dr_willis, if only it was that simple all the time ;( | 13:17 |
| nootrope | kane77, get that computer's IP address | 13:17 |
| outbackwifi | datta: did you install the software that page suggests? | 13:17 |

| Roland123 | how is it possible, that nvidia drivers are no more in the system, when one hour ago, before i shut down the system, it was working perfectly? | 13:17 |
| Ohmu_ | Is there a more suitable forum for this problem? : I'm getting no sound on my AVI. Image is ok but no sound. How to go about fixing? Can I find the codec the AVI uses, & find if I have that codec? can anyone help me to do this? | 13:17 |
| ura | i'd like to know why torbutton doesen't work | 13:17 |
| kane77 | nootrope, but then I must go to that computer and see what IP it has assigned or try different IP addresses.. | 13:17 |
| Dr_willis | Roland123, kernel update/upgrade.. You may need to reinsatll them | 13:17 |
| wobblywu | Dr_willis, did this work on 8.04 as well? | 13:18 |

| radoen | I'm looking a script to convert a lot of 7z archiuve to zip | 13:33 |
| radoen | someone can help me? | 13:34 |
| noiz | dr_willis: the error in et is "could not open dev/dsp | 13:34 |
| noiz | what it means? | 13:34 |
| jrib | radoen: figure out how to do it for one and then write a for loop | 13:34 |
| Dr_willis | noiz, its using the old methind of accessing the sound card. with the new change to the sound system /dev/dsp is no longer around. thats what that patch/tool did i belive. was reroute the access to /dev/dsp to the proper audio device | 13:34 |
| radoen | ehheeh i don't know how to comnvert one file..... | 13:35 |
| paul68 | outbackwifi: any idea? | 13:35 |
| bullgard4 | The partition /dev/sdb4 of my USB disk has the file system ext3 and the mount point /media/MDBackup. It works all right. How can I rename the mount point to '/media/BckupT42'? | 13:35 |

| noiz | dr_willis: whith the same thing? | 13:35 |
| noiz | dr_willis: eh lets talk private much easyer to ceep track what we say -.- | 13:35 |
| villain | radoen, you could extract every archive first | 13:35 |
| outbackwifi | paul68: that remove failed with an error saying that the init script was not found. you could fool apt by creating an empty file called dhcp3-server inside /etc/init.d | 13:35 |
| radoen | noooo | 13:36 |
| villain | then zip them | 13:36 |
| radoen | really? | 13:36 |
| noiz | dr_willis: what sould i do? :O | 13:36 |
| villain | by scripts ;P | 13:36 |

| kanhiya78 | is there any channel for game useers | 13:36 |
| villain | not by hand :D | 13:36 |
| Dr_willis | noiz, the only fix i have seen is that 'patch/script' at the url i gave earlier.. You have no 'normal speakers. sio yoy dont know if You are having problems due to your use of usb-headphones, OR if its some other issue.. thats why i suggested trying normal speakers first. | 13:36 |
| kanhiya78 | anybody knows | 13:36 |

| mysteryc | freeRag: As far as I know, Ubuntu would be a great deal. But as I said, Cedega costs. | 13:50 |
| kri | if im correct 'apt-get autoremove' + 'apt-get autoclean' removes important libaries that is needed? | 13:51 |

| soreau | jock: You can try Sys>Prefs>Visual Effects set to Extra to see if that works | 13:52 |
| mysteryc | freeRag: Yes, it was me but I mean any Desktop distro. | 13:52 |
| outbackwifi | ay^: how did you know that it was a kernel panic? | 13:52 |

| jrib | kri: it tells you exactly what it removes before it does it and you accept. What isn't working? | 14:02 |
| nootrope | sidewalk, i see... you need to run a streaming video server of somesort, like shoutcast is to audio... let's see... | 14:03 |
| jrib | freeRag: why? | 14:03 |
| outbackwifi | bullgard4: sudo rm /media/BackupMD | 14:03 |
| outbackwifi | bullgard4: after *unmounting* | 14:03 |
| LjL | sidewalk: the problem with those card is that they *usually* simply ask for a screen overlay on your video card - basically, a "picture in picture" system, where the OS isn't really handling the TV display, it doesn't even know what pixels are being shown (and if you take a screenshot, the TV window comes out blank - try that) | 14:03 |

| sidewalk | LjL: oh, but i can start ktv locally, i have vnc access to the machine | 14:04 |
| jrib | freeRag: yes. Just disable graphical login in system -> admin -> services | 14:04 |

| Frogging101 | Whenever I run something in wine, and that INCLUDES wine configuration, there is no text whatsoever except for text in greyed out buttons. But as soon as a button isn't greyed out, there is no text except for a tiny little line, that is usually under the first letter of the text. I have tried reinstalling completely, deleting the .wine directory, but nothing works. look at http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/8599/stupidwinebq6.png | 14:06 |
| freeRag | should i disable some deamons ? | 14:06 |
| NotADJ | :( | 14:06 |
| LjL | sidewalk: i don't recommend anything, i actually think you'll be lucky if you get *anything* to work for streaming. but i'd try mplayer (possibly with the KMplayer interface) | 14:06 |
| adam7 | NotADJ: at any rate, back up your data now :) | 14:06 |
| sidewalk | LjL: great, thanks! | 14:06 |
| Dr_willis | freeRag, if you want a lighter desktop.. install one and use it.. I like jwm+rox-filer... | 14:06 |
| outbackwifi | Frogging101: that probably means that font rendering in wine is not ok | 14:07 |
| freeRag | is gnome the better supported WM in ubuntu ? | 14:07 |

| Ohmu_ | My multimedia is a total disaster. mplayer breaks on everything and i have to kill it by processid. totem plays at about one frame per 10 seconds slowing to a halt. now vlc has gone wonky and is not playing mp3s. the bar moves but nothing comes out. is this a normal ubuntu experience? | 14:08 |

| LjL | !offtopic | freeRag , enough | 14:08 |
| ubottu | freeRag , enough: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 14:08 |
| outbackwifi | Frogging101: generally "which wine" would tell you | 14:08 |
| magnetron | Ohmu_→ it might help if you tell us what you are trying to play | 14:09 |
| LjL | freeRag: if you have a *support question*, ask, otherwise head to #ubuntu-offtopic - we don't care what you like better, we don't take polls, we just answer (when we can) support questions here. | 14:09 |

| Ohmu_ | magnetron, I'm trying to play an mp3 in vlc. It worked yesterday. Today not. | 14:09 |
| NotADJ | adam7: It runs OS X | 14:10 |
| LjL | kri: that's a silly way to install a package | 14:10 |
| Frogging101 | outbackwifi: Where is the wine binary path usually? | 14:10 |
| adam7 | NotADJ: and that works fine? the Ubuntu partition might just be corrupt then | 14:10 |
| faria_ | Good adam7 | 14:10 |
| LjL | kri: and it's not surprising that "apt-get autoremove" would break things, if you install things in unsupported ways that APT can't know about | 14:10 |
| adam7 | faria_: ? | 14:10 |
| NotADJ | adam7: Yeah, but it looks like a Sata error. | 14:10 |
| jrib | kri: by "explicitly install", I just mean install it using apt-get or synaptic | 14:10 |
| outbackwifi | Frogging101: just type "which wine" that will give you the path | 14:10 |
| LjL | kri: why didn't you just install mplayer using "sudo apt-get install mplayer" (or the equivalent in Synaptic)? | 14:10 |
| maureen | hey there, how can i connect to a public git repository? | 14:11 |
| adam7 | ay^: CPU0 attaching NULL sched-domain. <-- never seen that before. It might be your problem, but I'm not sure | 14:11 |
| ay^ | adam7: thanks a bunch I'll get right on googling around! | 14:11 |
| jrib | maureen: what do you mean by "connect"? You can do things like clone using 'git clone' | 14:11 |
| NotADJ | Brb | 14:12 |
| bullgard4 | outbackwifi: This worked. GParted shows now a label BckupT42 but no mountpoint. | 14:12 |

| maureen | yeah, i think that's what i want to do. http://intellinuxgraphics.org/download.html | 14:12 |

| maureen | it gives a git:// link but i'm not sure how to use it | 14:12 |
| atmosfer | installation of ubuntu 8.10 freezes on *Realoading system log daemon... whats wrong? | 14:12 |

| AzizLight | how can I disable the Alt+drag shortcut used to move windows please? | 14:12 |
| paul68 | adam7: how can I ping a destination to see what the ip of that mac is? | 14:12 |

| kri | LjL: cause many things seems to be undated so to say and i want to learn how to configure a linux desktop not every system has apitude. | 14:13 |
| outbackwifi | bullgard4: just inserting the disk should work | 14:13 |
| maureen | lovely, thanks | 14:13 |
| ay^ | outbackwifi: I haven't tried recovery mode actually.. I'll do that as well | 14:13 |
| jrib | AzizLight: system -> preferences -> windows can let you change it | 14:13 |
| adam7 | paul68: you have to know the IP of the other computer, and then you can do ping 10.0.99.99 | 14:13 |
| henning | Question - I have a Macbook, and I need to set the apple key as Alt Gr. How do I do that? | 14:13 |
| kri | jrib: i installed it with apt-get now so it installed the lost libaires | 14:13 |
| adam7 | paul68: (where 10.0.99.99 is the ip of the other computer) | 14:13 |

| paul68 | adam7: well I know the gateway but need to figure out the mac of that gateway | 14:14 |
| atmosfer | can any1 help me? | 14:14 |
| LjL | kri: you'll be hard pressed to find a current Linux system that doesn't have some form of package management (whether it be APT, or RPM-based, or pacman, or whatever). installing stuff "manually" like that is almost invariably a terrible idea, on any system, and in any case it's not supported here. | 14:14 |
| jrib | atmosfer: best to just ask the channel your question. If someone knows the answer, they will try to answer you | 14:14 |
| maureen | atmosfer, what's up? | 14:14 |
| LjL | kri: if you want to do things that way, well it's your computer, but you're on your own then. | 14:14 |
| Frogging101 | outbackwifi: wine what? It just says the syntax | 14:14 |
| atmosfer | installation of ubuntu 8.10 freezes on *Realoading system log daemon... whats wrong? | 14:14 |
| henning | jrib - yes, I can't find a button that says layout options | 14:14 |
| adam7 | paul68: oh, sorry. If you can (or have) nmap installed, then just do nmap ip_address | 14:14 |
| Frogging101 | outbackwifi: I mean usage | 14:14 |
| paul68 | ok | 14:14 |
| freeRag | please dont ever send me to ubuntu offtopic again | 14:14 |
| jrib | henning: it's in the "layouts" tab | 14:14 |

| Frogging101 | outbackwifi: I went to a folder on my desktop, and typed wine LimeWireWin.exe. LimeWire installer came up, but there was no text or anything at all. In the terminal there were no errors. | 14:17 |
| outbackwifi | atmosfer: did you do a media check | 14:17 |
| atmosfer | yes one file is corrupt | 14:17 |
| maureen | i have firefox-2 in my repo | 14:18 |
| bullgard4 | outbackwifi: Yes, this worked. Great! -- Can I summarize as follows: Ubuntu takes the Label which I have created as a name for the mountpoint in the /media directory? | 14:18 |
| jrib | henning: if that window doesn't do what you want, you might have to look into how to do it using xmodmap | 14:18 |

| thompa | I need seamonkey as kompozer doesnt work | 14:58 |
| NotADJ | Upon using Ubuntu I get these errors -> http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3174/3034935516_1fd3a41756_b.jpg | 14:58 |
| j3tt | mysteryc: maybe bios is set to use onboard before PCIE (i assume it's pcie) ... | 14:58 |
| NotADJ | :( | 14:58 |
| prodigel | hi all. I want to convert my windows partition to a vmware virtual machine. I know it can be done, but I don't know how. | 14:58 |
| outbackwifi | Mili: no but as per your Xorg log, you're using a Vesa driver instead of nvidia | 14:58 |
| mysteryc | j3tt: Yeah, if i remember correctly too it's PCIE. | 14:58 |
| mysteryc | j3tt: So, ok, I should go to BIOS now? | 14:58 |
| Delaya | need to set keyboard layout change keys in ubuntu 8.10 through terminal (need for fvwm). Any suggestions? | 14:58 |
| farciarz84 | oskar-: ETACS-P02 is the printer | 14:58 |
| DarkKnight | hii where can I get the right drivers for my hardware support... | 14:58 |
| sifr | i was wondering if somebody could answer a question i have regarding the installting the installation of doc packages? | 14:58 |
| oskar- | farciarz84: you already tried this, right? smb://192.168.1.51/ETACS-P02 | 14:59 |
| Mili | outbackwifi: I had to uninstall the restricted driver because it was causing so many problems | 14:59 |
| j3tt | mysteryc: check BIOS first if it's using pcie ... where's your monitor hooked up to? | 14:59 |
| mysteryc | j3tt: ? | 14:59 |
| outbackwifi | Mili: i dont think the vesa driver can support the resolution you are looking for | 14:59 |
| LjL | leachim6: 1400x1050, 8 point fonts. you have a solid 9 lines in less than 1 minute. this channel has 1400 people, think if all of them asked questions like that. anyway, i'm not sure why that error happens, but it can probably be fixed if you go to the grub console and type "root (hd0,0)" and then "setup (hd0)" (obviously, hd0 and hd0,0 might be different numbers on your system) | 15:00 |
| j3tt | mysteryc: sorry ... i meant check back of your pc where the monitor is hooked up to. | 15:00 |
| mysteryc | j3tt: Oh lol ok. Sec. | 15:00 |
| farciarz84 | oskar-: exactly and not working | 15:00 |
| j3tt | DarkKnight: what video card do you have? | 15:00 |
| outbackwifi | !ask | sifr | 15:01 |
| ubottu | sifr: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 15:01 |
| Mili | outbackwifi: So I have no choice but to use the restricted driver? | 15:01 |
| mysteryc | j3tt: Ok, checked but I dunno the name of the port. I think it's called the female vga or something? I might be wrong, I really have no idea about monitors and stuff like that :s | 15:01 |
| outbackwifi | Mili: you could also try envyng | 15:01 |
| outbackwifi | !envyng | Mili | 15:01 |
| ubottu | Mili: envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) we suggest you use envyng if every other (official/supported) method fails! it can have various results from works, to fails!!! if you want the very latest drivers from the manufacturer you use them at your own risk | 15:01 |
| sifr | cool thanks | 15:01 |
| j3tt | mysteryc: is the port it's connected to near the USB ports, keyboard, mouse ? | 15:01 |

| DarkKnight | j3tt; i dont have any video card.the problem is that i can't get the right screen resolution...i have tried with all the resolutions i have......for my windows..i use 1024x768.....but this isnt there in my screen resolution list and someone told me that i need to have my hardware drivers for it... | 15:02 |
| mysteryc | j3tt: Yes, but there are 2 ports. One exactly underneath the mouse/keyboard ports and one more underneath of the port. | 15:02 |
| bullgard4 | How can I label my USB drive FAT32 partition /dev/sdb3? Is this only possible in Windows? | 15:03 |

| ^Cheeky | anyone with ffmpeg experience? | 15:03 |

| jrib | !label | bullgard4 | 15:03 |
| ubottu | bullgard4: To rename the labels of your partitions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RenameUSBDrive. | 15:03 |
| mysteryc | j3tt: No, not that one. The one beneath that port. | 15:03 |
| j3tt | ah | 15:03 |
| Mili | outbackwifi: I installed it, now do I change the xorg.conf to say nvidia instead of vesa? | 15:03 |
| outbackwifi | Mili: yes | 15:04 |
| alexei_ | hi, I switched to Gnome on kubuntu 8.10 and get both gnome- and kdenetworkmanager startin on login. How do I disable the latter? | 15:04 |
| j3tt | mysteryc: is it blue? (with a female connection ... female = holes instead of pins) | 15:04 |
| farciarz84 | oskar-: this is a print-server (sth like switch) where the printer is connected to | 15:04 |
| Mili | outbackwifi: Ok just restarting X | 15:04 |
| j3tt | DarkKnight: you should have a video card otherwise you won't see anything on your screen. :) it must be an onboard videocard then | 15:05 |
| farciarz84 | oskar-: I think it has no Netbios name, only ip | 15:05 |
| outbackwifi | alexei_: in system-preferences-sessions | 15:05 |
| thompa | anybody using seamonkey then? | 15:05 |
| mysteryc | j3tt: Oh yes, it's the one with the holes :) | 15:05 |
| j3tt | DarkKnight: try changing the file ~/.config/monitors.xml ... there's a section there with the resolution | 15:05 |
| elvirolo | hi everyone | 15:06 |
| oskar- | farciarz84: ok... i do not know further, sorry. the connection seems possible, as the services can be requested from your computer... maybe you could try to disable a eventually active firewall (ufw?) | 15:06 |
| outbackwifi | !hi| elvirolo | 15:06 |
| ubottu | elvirolo: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 15:06 |
| elvirolo | i don't get any sound from exaile... why is that? | 15:06 |
| farciarz84 | oskar-: you mean iptable | 15:06 |
| j3tt | mysteryc: it's somewhat strange that you don't see ATI in lspci. can you check the file ~/.config/monitors.xml to see the resolution listed in there | 15:06 |
| DarkKnight | j3tt; how do i change it | 15:06 |
| maureen | elvirolo, does the file play with no sound? | 15:07 |
| maureen | or does it just not play? | 15:07 |
| mysteryc | j3tt: Sure, hang on a sec. | 15:07 |
| elvirolo | maureen: no, in fact it doesn't... codec problem. | 15:07 |
| elvirolo | ? | 15:07 |
| oskar- | farciarz84: yes, i think, ufw is a iptables firewall setting from newer ubuntu versions | 15:07 |
| maureen | elvirolo, is it an mp3 file? | 15:07 |
| j3tt | DarkKnight: in the command line type: gedit ~/.config/monitors.xml | 15:07 |
| mysteryc | j3tt: The resolution is the width and the height? | 15:08 |
| outbackwifi | !ufw | 15:08 |
| mysteryc | j3tt: <width>800</width> | 15:08 |
| mysteryc | <height>600</height> | 15:08 |

| paul68 | outbackwifi: the meaning is that i use the dlink as gateway and then the server as router/gateway on order to excersise with iptables since I need to have something attached to eth1 on the server side I add a switch AP there | 15:54 |

| j1mc | jamiejackson: great! | 15:54 |

| NicEXE | I found a weird graphics problem. When I launch Elisa Media Center the 3d menu comes up (this is normal) but after about 3 second I get a black screen. Also when I select some specific 3d screensavers (most of the 3d screensavers works) they appear for the first 2 seconds and then I get a black screen. How to fix this? (I am on Ubuntu 8.10 64 bit with intel integrated graphics) | 15:57 |
| kippetje | j3tt, then i can only put it to the strange 25..x800 setting | 15:57 |
| oskar- | dA_ShArP: then you seem to be mounting /dev/sdb3, and it seems already to be mounted | 15:57 |
| j1mc | jamiejackson: i have used that a bunch of times in the past myself, that's how i know it helps with that. :) | 15:57 |

| Cluber | Why doesn't pidgin let me send/receive files a lot of the time. | 16:38 |
| krish__ | ikonia done what next? | 16:38 |
| ikonia | krish__: /etc/init.d/mysql start | 16:38 |
| ikonia | krish__: sorry, sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start | 16:38 |
| Cluber | Why doesn't pidgin let me send/receive files a lot of the time. ( Version 2.5.2, ubuntu 8.10, protocol msn ) | 16:38 |
| InfectedWithDrew | Cluber, it seems to be a flaw of the software. It happens on the Windows version as well. | 16:38 |
| Cluber | That really sucks. lol | 16:39 |
| krish__ | ikonia done | 16:39 |
| rootrot | Cluber: do the peop[le your sending them too also have a IM client tht cdan send/recive files? | 16:39 |
| ikonia | krish__: now try media wiki | 16:39 |
| InfectedWithDrew | Yes, Cluber, it does, and if the Pidgin team would fix that, well, I'd probably send them money. Keep in mind that Pidgin-to-Pidgin works better than Pidgin-to-Messenger. | 16:39 |
| Cluber | InfectedWithDrew: Okay thanks. | 16:39 |
| krish__ | ikonia now it is asking me to check the db username and db password | 16:40 |
| ikonia | krish__: ok, do that | 16:40 |
| UnknownUser56 | Just a quick question,I always have a used the live cd for my uses for nix based jobs,but I want to boot from it all the time .but how do I choose so that it's installed in only one partition ? | 16:40 |
| krish__ | ikonia what should i do? | 16:40 |
| ikonia | krish__: check the usesrname and password as it suggests | 16:40 |
| krish__ | ikonia i dont know what user name i gave | 16:41 |
| ikonia | krish__: I can't help you with that then | 16:41 |
| krish__ | ikonia can i create a new username now? | 16:41 |
| ikonia | krish__: if you don't know what username/password you setup, I can't help you | 16:41 |
| UnknownUser56 | I tried manualy setting the disk space and backed up the files on it ,should I specify the use of the partition, | 16:41 |
| InfectedWithDrew | UnknownUser56: When you install, the graphical interface will allow you to see your partitions. Set up one partition of a comfortable size, say, 40+ GB, and format it to ext2 or ext3 (2 if a small partition). Then have that be the one that Ubuntu boots from. | 16:42 |
| UnknownUser56 | as in 'Use as' .. ? | 16:42 |
| henux | Hello, how to fix this problem? http://pastebin.com/d7fc273e0 I'm running Ubuntu in Qemu, and I accidentally closed the VM while update manager was running. Now its unable to complete the upgrade! | 16:42 |
| dkT | Hi, I have trouble get my vmware-workstation running again after upgrading to 8.10... Any one familiar with this problem too? | 16:42 |
| krish__ | ikonia is there any way around | 16:42 |
| ikonia | krish__: yes, but your too new to ubuntu to go through it, maybe best to remove it and re-install it and pay more attention to the username and password you enter | 16:42 |
| UnknownUser56 | anyone ? | 16:43 |
| krish__ | ikonia to remove it i should type remove instead of install right? | 16:43 |
| kapa | ikonia: any help for the ethernet card problem? | 16:43 |
| InfectedWithDrew | UnknownUser56: I have answered your question. Scroll up. | 16:43 |
| henux | anyone ? | 16:43 |
| mworth | I have a disk with a corrupt partition table; gparted sees it as totally empty while gpart picked up what looks like the correct partition table but even after writing this I can't mount any partition and gparted sees it as empty | 16:43 |
| ikonia | kapa: user synaptic package manager, you'll find it easier | 16:43 |
| ikonia | kapa: have you checked if it's supported under linux first | 16:43 |
| InfectedWithDrew | henux, I would suppose that you will have to reconfigure the VM from scratch. | 16:43 |
| UnknownUser56 | must pay more attention ,thanks infectedWithDrew <3 | 16:44 |
| InfectedWithDrew | You are welcome, UnknownUser56. | 16:44 |
| kapa | ikonia if the sis190/191 is supported you mean? | 16:44 |
| ikonia | kapa: correct | 16:44 |
| NicEXE | Those are the available drivers that intel gives for my motherboard http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=2068 which OS should I select? (Ubuntu is missing) | 16:44 |
| henux | InfectedWithDrew: i dont think so | 16:44 |
| kapa | yes it is | 16:44 |
| DarkKnight | bazhang; there was this line which isnt there in my file BusID "PCI:0:2:0" do i have 2 add it | 16:45 |
| [1]matitaccia | Hi guys. I'm using 8.04. Is there a big difference from .04 to .10? | 16:45 |
| henux | InfectedWithDrew: its just the package manager which is out of synch | 16:45 |
| ikonia | kapa: I can't see anything on the net that suggests it is (just googling) | 16:45 |
| henux | InfectedWithDrew: the same happens if you accidentally switch power off while upgrading | 16:45 |
| InfectedWithDrew | henux, that is what I would do, but I have little experience with VMware. Have you asked the forums too? | 16:45 |
| mysteryc | [1]matitaccia: Well, there's a tabbed nautilus :) | 16:45 |
| mysteryc | :p | 16:45 |
| retro_ | NicEXE: there is linux OS | 16:45 |
| kapa | ikonia the cd with the motherboard hat some drivers for linux, but for other distributions | 16:45 |
| henux | InfectedWithDrew: look, its not qemu related, its Ubuntu related | 16:45 |
| bazhang | DarkKnight, that is pcie? | 16:45 |
| UnknownUser56 | setting mount point to '/boot' yed ? | 16:45 |
| ikonia | kapa: that means it's a 3rd party drivers | 16:46 |
| henux | InfectedWithDrew: its the package manager repo | 16:46 |
| UnknownUser56 | *yes | 16:46 |
| ikonia | kapa: which means it's not supported without valid 3rd party drivers | 16:46 |
| mrg_ | can i map by mouse back button to simulate an "alt+back arrow" press of the keyboard (universally, regardless of application)? | 16:46 |
| DarkKnight | bazhang; no just PCI.. | 16:46 |
| InfectedWithDrew | I'm sorry, henux, I guess I can't help you. :( | 16:46 |
| jrib | mrg_: you can use xbindkeys and xvkbd | 16:46 |
| NicEXE | retro_: Linux option does not provide any drivers except bios update | 16:46 |
| jrib | mrg_: or imwheel | 16:46 |
| retro_ | NicEXE: So you can try Debian | 16:46 |
| bazhang | DarkKnight, and it is missing in your new xorg,conf file? | 16:46 |
| retro_ | NicEXE: Ubuntu is derived from Debian linux | 16:46 |
| bazhang | err xorg.conf | 16:46 |
| mrg_ | jrib: is on of those preferred/default on ubuntu? | 16:47 |
| [1]matitaccia | mysteryc, I now have a problem which is bigger than that: when I click on system --> administration --> hardware drivers it asks me for the password. after that... nothing happens. no windows nothing. | 16:47 |
| kapa | ikonia can you tell me what i need to do to get the ethernet card working | 16:47 |
| dkT | Hi, I have trouble get my vmware-workstation running again after upgrading to 8.10... Any one familiar with this problem too? | 16:47 |
| DarkKnight | bazhang; ya | 16:47 |
| bazhang | kapa, how many entries in ifconfig | 16:47 |
| jrib | mrg_: imwheel will let you do per app or global, xbindkeys just global | 16:47 |
| mysteryc | [1]matilaccia: you mean when u enter the password, nothing happens? | 16:47 |
| [1]matitaccia | mysteryc, yes exactly. | 16:48 |
| candive | Hi all, how do I import my bookmarks into Firefox. File Import says no bookmarks avail. they are in my docs. the file extension is .json. thank you | 16:48 |
| kapa | bazhang how do i see iconfig (sorry i am really new with linux) | 16:48 |
| mrg_ | jrib: is xmodmap also for something similar? | 16:48 |
| bazhang | kapa, open a terminal and type ifconfig | 16:48 |
| kapa | bazhang i will do it and return | 16:48 |
| [1]matitaccia | mysteryc, after I enter the password I press enter... nothing happens. keep in mind that I have installed ubuntu today. | 16:49 |
| [1]matitaccia | mysteryc, so it might be some configuration which is missing. | 16:49 |
| InfectedWithDrew | candive, Google backing up user profiles in Firefox. It's in the directory that is used for profiles. | 16:49 |
| NicEXE | retro_: I tried that before but installing the provided *.deb files was not possible and I got an error about i386 (or similar) because I am on 64 bit Ubuntu | 16:49 |
| [1]matitaccia | mysteryc, in general the system seems pretty unstable. | 16:49 |
| crispy| | Anywhere I can get my dirty hands on some Nvidia driver package with the new 180.xx driver? | 16:50 |
| candive | InfectedwithDrew, thanks will try | 16:50 |
| kapa | bazhang ifconfig returns eth0 and lo | 16:50 |
| mysteryc | [1]matitaccia: I don't know, all these configuration stuff on linux can get pretty annoying. Ive been trying to fix my resolution for a month and it's still not working properly. :/ | 16:50 |
| [1]matitaccia | mysteryc, eheh... | 16:50 |
| bazhang | kapa, is the ethernet cable attached to the machine? | 16:50 |
| Guest97589 | does anyone know if there's an easy way to set up LVM in Ubuntu server? | 16:50 |
| kapa | bazhang yes and organge light ok | 16:51 |
| p1und3r | hey i have an unbuntu question... i just came from fedora 8... | 16:51 |
| mysteryc | [1]matitaccia: That's the good thing with windows, that if you get something wrong you can take it to any computer shop to be fixed. With linux though, you can't :/ | 16:51 |
| NicEXE | how can I install a 32 bit *.deb file on my 64 bit system? | 16:51 |
| p1und3r | why is it that i cant access my own root lol | 16:51 |
| bazhang | kapa, then type in the terminal sudo dhclient eth0 and paste.ubuntu.com the output (or just tell me on one line here what happens) | 16:51 |
| Lancelot_ | What server information do I enter for evolution mail if I'm using gmail? | 16:51 |

| p1und3r | bazhang, whats sudo.. | 16:52 |
| bazhang | p1und3r, always use sudo ; /msg ubottu sudo for more | 16:52 |
| thiebaude | !sudo | 16:53 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE) | 16:53 |
| p1und3r | bazhang, thanks | 16:53 |
| Lancelot_ | anyone? | 16:53 |
| Lancelot_ | What server information do I enter for evolution mail if I'm using gmail? | 16:53 |
| NicEXE | how can I install a 32 bit *.deb file on my 64 bit system? | 16:53 |
| Guest97589 | try googling it | 16:53 |
| bazhang | Lancelot_, check the gmail faq for that | 16:53 |
| [1]matitaccia | Hello all! I have freshly installed ubuntu 8.04 on my Sony VGN-S5HP which is using an Nvidia GeForce 6400 graphic chip. It seems to work, at the same time the system seems unstable. I say this because: when I tried to change the mouse preferences the system was stuck. Now when I open "hardware drivers" to see if I can install something else or change some drivers, I can't open it. I type the password in, but after that nothing happen | 16:53 |
| Lancelot_ | bazhang: thank you | 16:53 |

| dvyjones | !sound | 16:54 |
| ubottu | 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 | 16:54 |
| bazhang | g33k, there is no beryl | 16:54 |
| thiebaude | !best | 16:54 |
| ubottu | 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. | 16:54 |

| stroyan | paul68: I suspect 'sudo route add default 192.168.1.1 would get the connection working. But I still don't understand how you connected eth1 and eth2. | 17:34 |
| kapa | bazhang: which means? | 17:34 |

| danbhfive | Gabriel_A: try packages.ubuntu.com | 17:40 |
| DiiPhantom | checking | 17:40 |
| Myrtti | !alternate | atmosfer | 17:40 |
| ubottu | atmosfer: 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 link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal - Torrent at http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.10/ubuntu-8.10-alternate-i386.iso.torrent | 17:40 |
| erUSUL | Gabriel_A: from the repos. 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)' | 17:40 |
| paul68 | atmosfer: sorry can't help you with that | 17:40 |
| riegersn | with nvidia, im trying to use twin view but i need each monitor at different resolutions... is this possible | 17:40 |
| tsrk | !minimal | 17:41 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 17:41 |
| InfectedWithDrew | atmosfer, do you mean the alternate install CD? | 17:41 |
| stroyan | paul68: Are you trying to reach the internet through both routers? Or only through the eth1-linksys connection? | 17:41 |

| SpriteSODA | ndiswrapper works with me, but buggy :( | 17:42 |
| Gabriel_A | brb | 17:42 |
| InfectedWithDrew | atmosfer, you mean through a FTP server? | 17:42 |
| Finnish | Can i install x86-OS to my AMD64-laptop? | 17:42 |
| damian__ | bazhang: what is it? | 17:42 |
| atmosfer | well ftp or http | 17:42 |
| paul68 | stroyan: ok the setup is ISP > dlink > eth0 server eth1 > linksys | 17:42 |
| DiiPhantom | wisey: did u try add/remove programs? | 17:42 |
| Shib12 | SpriteSODA, okey, i having the problems with Ubuntu not finding the card, not even when I installed the driver in ndiswrapper :/ | 17:43 |
| atmosfer | InfectedWithDrew well ftp or http | 17:43 |
| bazhang | damian__, that links shows how it can be done successfully, ie it works | 17:43 |

See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 17:43 |
| paul68 | stroyan: the purpose of this excercise is to install iptables on my server to act as router | 17:43 |
| InfectedWithDrew | atmosfer, it would probably be through FTP. Ask your question to the room again so they know better what you're talking about (because I have no experience installing that way). | 17:43 |
| SpriteSODA | Shib12, is it a USB device? | 17:43 |
| Shib12 | SpriteSODA, no, internal wifi, laptop | 17:43 |
| damian__ | bazhang: it works till a kernel is upgraded. | 17:43 |
| harlekin | Finnish: yes why not? | 17:44 |
| stroyan | paul68: Do those '>' marks mean that you expect packets to only arrive through the dlink and only depart through the linksys? That won't work. | 17:44 |
| scientes | can i turn off gdm power stuff without turning off xdmcp? | 17:44 |

| SpriteSODA | Shib12, thank you for that madwifi, maybe it will fix my problems XD | 17:45 |
| atmosfer | does anyone know how to install ubuntu threw console? | 17:45 |
| wisey | DiiPhantom, it says the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type. | 17:45 |
| stroyan | paul68: Do you want your server to be a router for clients on the eth0 or the eth1 network? | 17:45 |
| Myrtti | atmosfer: you were given few answers already | 17:45 |
| wisey | i386 | 17:45 |

| InfectedWithDrew | Testing ubotu right now... | 17:49 |
| stroyan | paul68: There are two very different configurations possible. One connects the linksys "WAN" side to your server's eth1. Then linksys will treat your eth1 like an ISP. The other is to turn of the linksys DHCP and make your eth1 offer IP and routing info to clients. | 17:49 |
| n8tuser | g33k-> ddcprobe | 17:49 |
| Myrtti | atmosfer: a-ha? | 17:50 |
| InfectedWithDrew | !fsck | towlie | 17:50 |
| ubottu | towlie: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 17:50 |
| n8tuser | g33k-> sudo lshal | 17:50 |
| atmosfer | Myrtti but graffic interface doesnt start on instalation | 17:50 |
| Myrtti | atmosfer: then you should download and burn either alternate or minimal isos and try with those | 17:50 |
| paul68 | stroyan: and then the server is still giving out the ips like it should right? | 17:51 |
| AdvoWork | if ive just built some new ubuntu machines, is there a way i can control all of them at the same time, ie perform terminal commands in all of them? | 17:51 |

| yoyoned | AdvoWork: http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/551 | 17:52 |
| stroyan | If you turn off the linksys DHCP and run a DHCP server daemon on your server then it could hand out IPs and routing information. | 17:52 |
| g33k | ty | 17:52 |
| n8tuser | prodigel-> you host is linux? | 17:52 |
| scientes | what should i do if the alternate install stagbeates | 17:52 |

| scientes | its scanning the mirror and i dont know how to interrupt it | 17:53 |

| Pelo | I need someone to run a little test for me | 17:57 |
| stroyan | paul68: The linksys router would be willing to get it's WAN side IP from a DHCP request. But running the linksys router that way would hide the details of it's clients from your server. You would only get outbound connections from them by default. | 17:57 |

| stroyan | paul68: If you really have /etc/dhcpd.conf configured correctly and answering DHCP requests on eth1, then you may just need to disable DHCP on the linksys. That could be answering requests from the laptop and giving it bad routing information. | 18:02 |
| paul68 | stroyan: ok | 18:02 |
| ActionParsnip | yo yo yo | 18:03 |
| Pelo | erUSUL, mine are - I wonder if that is the problem | 18:03 |

| paul68 | n8tuser: http://paste.ubuntu.com/72979/ current route on the server route on the laptop http://paste.ubuntu.com/72949/ | 18:03 |
| erUSUL | Pelo: dunno; maybe depends on the dvd burner too | 18:03 |

| barnacles | good morning, I have some frustrating issues can anyone assist me here? | 18:04 |
| n8tuser | paul68-> your default route for your linksys and laptop is then wrong, it should be 192.168.1.1 | 18:05 |
| Mynameispivo | lucifer u from? | 18:05 |
| ActionParsnip | !ask | barnacles | 18:05 |
| ubottu | barnacles: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 18:05 |
| Pelo | barnacles, just state your issues, one at a time, one line per issue | 18:05 |
| jardi | I have made a small modification ton the guest session script (so that it use the /etc/skel content to create the new home folder) and I wanted to submit it. | 18:05 |
| DarkestSoul | i deleted the taskbar from my panel ... any chance to readd them? im using ubuntu-eee | 18:05 |
| Koordin | hi it's important ; can i restore a file that i've deleted today several hours from now ? if yes how can i do so ? | 18:05 |
| KR-data | ActionParsnip, the problem is that grub doesn't recognize the ntfs and it seems that it can't boot from it then | 18:05 |
| paul68 | n8tuser: how to correct this? | 18:05 |
| ActionParsnip | KR-data: grub can boot anything at all | 18:05 |
| erUSUL | Pelo: i usually just use the places>Cd/dvd burner ... but now that you mention it i remember changing by hand brasero from double layer to single layer when burning dvd in hardy | 18:05 |
| Dominik1 | how can I remove all that came with xubuntu-desktop? autoremove xubuntu-desktop only clears 41kb | 18:06 |
| n8tuser | paul68 how is the laptop configured? and same with linksys? they should be dhcp | 18:06 |
| ActionParsnip | KR-data: you need to add a valid entry for the ntfs partition to chainload the system | 18:06 |
| barnacles | alright i installed ubuntu on my hpdv6oo0 laptop, after installing all the updates i was able to enable my broadcom wireless driver. It is being recognized correctly now, however when I connect to my LAN it connects but no internet. | 18:06 |
| KR-data | ActionParsnip, for some reason it won't boot the xp :( | 18:06 |
| ActionParsnip | KR-data: the !grub factoid will tell you how to add it | 18:06 |
| paul68 | n8tuser: everything is dhcp | 18:06 |
| n8tuser | Dominik1-> purge instead of remobe | 18:06 |
| thompa | does anyone know how to get flash working on 64? | 18:06 |
| Dominik1 | n8tuser: thanks | 18:06 |
| paul68 | n8tuser: server is giving out ips | 18:06 |
| Pelo | erUSUL, even when I "select" the corret media , it returns an error of "insuficient space" when I get to the burning part | 18:06 |
| erUSUL | thompa: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 18:06 |
| n8tuser | paul68-> then paste you dchpd server and lets see | 18:07 |
| erUSUL | Pelo: well i did not get that error | 18:07 |
| paul68 | n8tuser: dhcp config right? | 18:07 |
| jardi | Can anyone look at this bug report and tell me if this is the correct way to submit a patch ? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm-guest-session/+bug/296993 | 18:07 |
| n8tuser | paul68-> then paste you dchpd server and lets see <-- dhcpd "d" as daemon, meaning the server | 18:07 |
| danand | !grub | danand | 18:07 |

| thompa | erUSUL: ill try that thanks. i dont think all sites will work | 18:07 |
| Pelo | can someone else confirm or deny this bug for me , put in a blank dvd and open brasero, see if the dvd is recognised with the correct available space, in the data cd section | 18:07 |
| thompa | ActionParsnip: thansk | 18:08 |
| Pelo | erUSUL, thanks for trying anyway | 18:08 |
| Akkernight | Why won't the terminal let my type in my password? | 18:08 |
| erUSUL | thompa: never find one that didn't | 18:08 |
| Pelo | Akkernight, it does, it just doesn'T show | 18:08 |
| Dominik1 | n8tuser: no luck, same thing : ( | 18:08 |
| erUSUL | Pelo: no problem | 18:08 |
| towlie | guys. will fsck report any physical errors on a hard drive ? | 18:08 |
| amalgama | hello everybody....... | 18:08 |
| n8tuser | Dominik1-> what was your exact command? | 18:08 |
| thompa | erUSUL: you need wrapper on 64 | 18:08 |
| Pelo | !wifi | barnacles see if there is something in there for you on this | 18:09 |
| ubottu | barnacles see if there is something in there for you on this: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 18:09 |
| n8tuser | towlie-> it may tell you of badblocks, btw, look into the more dangerous command badblocks | 18:09 |
| Dominik1 | n8tuser: sudo apt-get purge xubuntu-desktop | 18:09 |
| amalgama | i have a small problem and i was wondering if i can get some help from you guys since google didnt help me.... | 18:09 |
| erUSUL | thompa: yes; and if flash crashes it does not crash firefox with it which is an advantage over 32 bits XXDD | 18:09 |
| stroyan | paul68: /etc/dhcpd.conf is the config file. (And dhcpd should be running.) | 18:09 |
| roadfish | /proc/scsi/scsi includes entries with disk-ID info like "WDC WD5000AAKS-0". How can I determine which "/dev/sdX" these entries correspond to? | 18:09 |
| bazhang | Dominik1, you want pure gnome? | 18:09 |
| paul68 | n8tuser: http://paste.ubuntu.com/73004/ | 18:09 |
| barnacles | alright ill check it out | 18:09 |
| Dominik1 | bazhang: no xfce | 18:10 |
| ActionParsnip | !purexfce | 18:10 |
| erUSUL | jardi: the correct way is to make a diff between the original file and the new one. "diff -u oldfile newone" and send that | 18:10 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !KDE and !Gnome packages and have a default !Xubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce » | 18:10 |
| n8tuser | Dominik1-> it has remove some earlier, now the last command should just have removed the remaining | 18:10 |
| Dominik1 | bazhang, wanna get rid of all that comes with xubuntu | 18:10 |
| bazhang | Dominik1, you want which de | 18:10 |
| Dominik1 | n8tuser: but I still have all the stuff that I got from installing xubuntu-desktop | 18:10 |
| n8tuser | Dominik1-> and then restart gdm after, or else it may still be active | 18:10 |
| Dominik1 | bazhang: I wanna keep gnome, and all default apps that came with ubuntu | 18:10 |
| Dominik1 | n8tuser: gdm? | 18:11 |
| bazhang | !puregnome | Dominik1 | 18:11 |
| ubottu | Dominik1: If you want to remove all !KDE packages and have a default !Ubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome » | 18:11 |
| ActionParsnip | !puregnome | Dominik1 | 18:11 |
| bazhang | Dominik1, read that | 18:11 |
| n8tuser | paul68-> your line 3 is wrong | 18:11 |
| thompa | erUSUL: well it still does not open comedy central or any other sites, just white or grey window | 18:11 |
| Dominik1 | bazhang: thanks | 18:11 |
| Akkernight | Why do I get message "Only root can do that" when I try "mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1/media/disk -o force" I'm the only user on the system... | 18:11 |
| Garnol9955 | i want to install ubuntu from the live CD, but when it comes to the partition manager it does not seem to load my existing partition. It does not even give me the possibility to select the whole partition. What can i do? | 18:11 |
| joaopinto | Akkernight, being the only user is not being root, you need to prefix your command with sudo | 18:11 |
| Koordin | can i restore a file that i've deleted today several hours from now ? if yes how can i do so ? | 18:11 |
| n8tuser | Akkernight-> use sudo in front of mount | 18:12 |
| thompa | erUSUL: the sites worked in older fireofox or flash maybe | 18:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Akkernight: mount needs sudo | 18:12 |
| paul68 | n8tuser: note that the first subnet is 192.168.0.0 the second is 192.168.1.0 | 18:12 |
| n8tuser | Koordin-> impossible, if you have rm | 18:12 |
| thompa | erUSUL: i guess i need firefox 32 also? | 18:12 |
| amalgama | hello guys....i have a problem and i was wondering if i can get some help from you guys since google wasnt a big help..... | 18:12 |
| Garnol9955 | i want to install ubuntu from the live CD, but when it comes to the partition manager it does not seem to load my existing partition. It does not even give me the possibility to select the whole partition. What can i do? | 18:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | amalgama Just ask your question | 18:13 |
| ActionParsnip | thompa: you can run firefox32 to get flash if you want, its easier to just run flash through nspluginwrapper | 18:13 |
| Koordin | n8tuser: i have rm ; rm write physically 0 at the place of the deleted file ? | 18:13 |
| thompa | ActionParsnip: you tube works but i dont want that | 18:13 |
| n8tuser | paul68-> try it first and see if it will work...restart dhcpd server after you make your mods | 18:13 |
| ActionParsnip | thompa: what do you want? | 18:13 |
| Chousuke | Koordin: rm doesn't write anything. | 18:13 |
| n8tuser | paul68-> also you have to re-acquire the ip for your laptop and linksys | 18:13 |
| thompa | ActionParsnip: comedy channel and other sites | 18:13 |
| Pelo | Garnol9955, use the gparted from the desktop before hand and manualy partitons the hdd before starting the installer , then use manual partitionning when you get to taht step, and select the partitons for / swap and /home | 18:14 |
| paul68 | n8tuser: ok with what do I replace it with? | 18:14 |
| ActionParsnip | thompa: can you give me a link? | 18:14 |
| Chousuke | Koordin: it just removes the reference to the file from the filesystem, so that it may be marked as free space if there are no more references. | 18:14 |
| stroyan | paul68, n8tuser: I suspect that line 3 doesn't matter. All the clients should be using the 192.168.1.* subnet and routing. The laptop routing data look like it is listening to the linksys DHCP instead of the eth1 server DHCP. | 18:14 |
| amalgama | i dual boot vista with ubuntu 8.10... it seems that when i turn off ubuntu (eg. restart computer or turn off computer), ubuntu also turns off my wifi card.. when i log in vista my wifi card doesnt work.. | 18:14 |
| rick_astley | my key repeat is too slow, how can i increase beyond the maximum? | 18:14 |
| Koordin | Chousuke: so it's possible to get back a file deleted with rm, if nothing has written above my file | 18:14 |
| amalgama | what can i do for that? | 18:14 |
| Chousuke | Koordin: possible, but difficult. | 18:14 |
| Dominik1 | thanks getting 680 megs back | 18:14 |
| n8tuser | paul68-> id replace with 192.168.1.1 and I dont know why you have a hard time using dhcp from your new router facing the ISP | 18:15 |
| joaopinto | amalgama, does the wifi card work when booting into linux ? | 18:15 |
| amalgama | yeah,perfectl | 18:15 |
| MinosDis | can anyone tell me what the command to check if a specific kernel module is installed is? | 18:15 |
| amalgama | perfectly | 18:15 |
| punzak | so I just did an apt-get update/upgrade and broke my install of mysql... what next? I don't really care about the data, I had only just started to populate it. | 18:15 |
| amalgama | ans it worked in vista.. | 18:15 |
| Nikyo | hi | 18:15 |
| thompa | ActionParsnip: thanks on 64 ibex http://www.colbertnation.com/home | 18:15 |
| danbhfive | MinosDis: modinfo maybe | 18:15 |
| tolgahan | jn | 18:15 |
| thompa | ActionParsnip: or the hulu site | 18:15 |
| n8tuser | stroyan-> the laptop is not on the lan side of linksys, so that will not make sense | 18:15 |
| thompa | ActionParsnip: only youtube works | 18:16 |
| wos | !tv tuner | 18:16 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about tv tuner | 18:16 |
| amalgama | actually, the only way i can get wifi to work in vista is with that thing they have that windows fix the problem on their own(sic), but that doesnt always work | 18:16 |
| n8tuser | paul68-> actually i would remove line 1 to 4 | 18:16 |
| wos | can anyone tell me where i can find a list of compatible tv-tuners for ubuntu? | 18:16 |
| Pelo | wos, I recommend you lookup your model in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org as well as tv tuner or other related keywords | 18:16 |
| joaopinto | amalgama, then you should ask on ##windows, both OSes are independent, the windows driver should turn on your wifi card, regardless of the status it was left by linux | 18:17 |
| Pelo | wos, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport maybe | 18:17 |
| paul68 | n8tuser: ok brb | 18:17 |
| thompa | ActionParsnip: I thin I need firefox 32 for some reason | 18:17 |
| amalgama | and ...how exactly can i do that?? :) | 18:17 |
| Pici | !tv | wos | 18:18 |
| ubottu | wos: http://www.linuxtv.org/ has extensive information about using TV cards under Linux. Available viewers for analog cards: Zapping, tvtime (GTK/GNOME), kdetv (KDE), xawtv, motv. For digital cards: Klear (KDE), dvb-utils. For both analog and digital cards, !MythTV is a powerful framework. Your card may work the !IVTV drivers. See also !TV-Out | 18:18 |

| Ziber | wastrel: trying to install unreal, and it says there's not enough space on /tmp for some file that it needs to put there. | 18:30 |
| d00kiejones | i have the sound working on my bluetooh headset but the buttons dont work any ideas? | 18:30 |
| bazhang | ScottWegner, that is only one I am aware of sorry | 18:30 |
| n8tuser | stroyan-> why ? the linksys can take care of doing those things | 18:30 |
| Ziber | n8tuser: I dont know what any of it is. | 18:30 |
| ActionParsnip | joaopinto: its like that on many clients | 18:31 |
| Fishy | martin101, ubuntu is installed first | 18:31 |
| mophiax | When are the blueprints for 9.04 going to be released on launchpad? | 18:31 |
| ScottWegner | bazhang: ok, well thanks for your help. I suppose I can do a little poking around on my own :) | 18:31 |
| Axz | i did /Desktop/wine-1.1.8$ patch -p1 cursor-patches-1.1.8.patch | 18:31 |
| Axz | and nothing happends | 18:31 |
| Axz | that's normall? | 18:31 |
| n8tuser | Ziber-> i dont have my crystal ball with me, so you have to decide for your own which file you should remove, like cache, unknown files | 18:31 |
| wisey | how do i log in as root | 18:31 |
| Ziber | n8tuser: okay... | 18:31 |
| bazhang | wisey, dont | 18:32 |
| goat|lappy | mophiax: thats a question for #ubuntu+1, i'm not sure | 18:32 |
| mophiax | wisey --> sudo -i | 18:32 |
| bazhang | wisey, use sudo | 18:32 |
| mophiax | goat|lappy: thanks | 18:32 |
| martin101 | fishy! Partition your hard drive using a livecd, install windows onto the made partition, then boot ubuntu livecd again and setup grub! | 18:32 |
| riegersn | I can't get my laptop resolution down to 1440x900, it will only display 1680! please help! I'm using nvidia drivers and xinerama - here is my xorg.conf: http://pastebin.ca/1257865 | 18:32 |
| joaopinto | Axz, you dont't use patch like that, you you.. patch -p1 < file.patch | 18:32 |
| stroyan | n8tuser: If paul68 wants to connect inbound from the server to the linksys clients it will need to see real IPs and not be on the WAN side seeing only NAT outbound connections. It depends on what he really wants. | 18:32 |
| d00kiejones | bluetooth anyone? | 18:32 |
| Axz | sorry | 18:32 |
| dvyjones | Is there a program like "Rainmeter" for linux? | 18:32 |
| Axz | joaopinto, so cursor-patches-1.1.8.patch -p1 | 18:33 |
| Phill | I can't stay connected to a host with telnet, I'm running Ubuntu 8.04, the server is running the latest version of Unslung; it quits after logging in, log is http://pastebin.ca/1257857 I think it's a probably with Ubuntu's telnet program (some safety stuff perhaps?) | 18:33 |
| martin101 | fishy: checkout - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot | 18:33 |
| ActionParsnip | riegersn: check line 100 and 112 | 18:33 |
| joaopinto | Phill, why are you using telnet instead of ssh ? | 18:33 |
| ActionParsnip | riegersn: add the res you want to the left of the modes list | 18:33 |
| martin101 | look for Installing windows after ubuntu | 18:33 |
| n8tuser | stroyan right it depends on what he wants, but he is at a loss, anyways not sure your meaning of real IP's, 192.168.1.3 is a real ip | 18:33 |
| Ziber | Does anyone know what the kde-root folder is, in /tmp? | 18:34 |
| Ziber | Sounds somewhat important.. | 18:34 |
| ssmy | n8tuser: that ip is an intranet ip, not a public-facing IP. | 18:34 |
| Phill | @joaopinto: Slug doesn't have a ssh at default, I need to log in with telnet to install ssh; don't worry, that was my next step :) | 18:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: for your user its ~/.kde | 18:34 |
| joaopinto | Ziber, you need to recover space on your system install, /tmp is most likely to have just small files | 18:34 |
| n8tuser | ssmy-> it is still a real ip address | 18:34 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: So I can delete /tmp/kde-root? | 18:34 |
| joaopinto | Ziber, sudo apt-get autoremove ; sudo apt-get clean | 18:35 |
| Ziber | joaopinto: alright. | 18:35 |
| wisey | bazhang, n8tuser, neither worked. it says couldn't find package xchat | 18:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: you could rename it and reboot, run the system a while, if its ok, delete it | 18:35 |
| wastrel | a good way to get files out of /tmp is to reboot | 18:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: is it large? | 18:35 |
| fer | hola | 18:35 |
| joaopinto | Phill, erm, are we talking about an ubuntu system ? What is slug ? | 18:35 |
| Dundreary | hello all | 18:35 |
| joaopinto | !es | fer | 18:35 |
| mystery | Hi. | 18:35 |
| ubottu | fer: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 18:35 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: erm, one sec. | 18:35 |
| stroyan | n8tuser: I mean the same 'real IP' that the client think it has. If eth1 is connected to the WAN port then it will only see the linksys's single IP and the clients will be hidden behind that with Network Address Translation. (unless the router can have NAT disabled.) | 18:35 |
| n8tuser | wisey-> apt-cache search xchat and anything on the list? | 18:35 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: 804K ./kde-root | 18:35 |
| Fishy | martin101, that link helps thanks | 18:35 |
| Dundreary | does anyone know how to configure Wireless LAN for ubuntu? | 18:35 |
| wastrel | /tmp shouldn't be on it's own partition at least in a default install | 18:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: i wouldnt bother with it | 18:36 |
| Axz | guys i;m getting this error configure: error: FreeType development files not found. | 18:36 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: But, there's not enough space on /tmp for Unreal to write to it... | 18:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: its not doing much and will be deleted at reboot | 18:36 |
| joaopinto | Ax-Ax, you need the -dev package for freetype | 18:36 |
| joaopinto | Axz, apt-cache search freetype dev | 18:36 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: I'd prefer not to have to reboot. This is a server... | 18:36 |
| Phill | joaopinto: slug is a linux based firmware for Linksys's NSLU2, I don't think my problem is with the Slug atm, but with Ubuntu and having something different with it's default telnet, but I could always be wrong. | 18:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: i dont think an extra 800k is gonna give you any more joy | 18:36 |
| n8tuser | stroyan-> they are all real ip address, different subnets yeah, and yes the linksys nat should be activated | 18:36 |
| Clinteger | Hey | 18:37 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: How would you suggest I free up space then? | 18:37 |
| wisey | bazhang, n8tuser, how can i build it from the source from xchat.com | 18:37 |
| Clinteger | I don't have the System->Preferences->Font option menu | 18:37 |
| n8tuser | wisey-> did you see my last advise? what was the results? | 18:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: why dont you put the files someplace else | 18:37 |
| === dan_ is now known as BlueRay | ||
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: all of them? | 18:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: or symlink a folder in /tmp to a folder on a partition with space | 18:37 |
| wisey | it didn't print anything to the shell | 18:38 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: hmm, k | 18:38 |
| n8tuser | Ziber-> 1st thing cd /tmp; du -h and tell us the number near the very end of the listing | 18:38 |
| Dundreary | does anyone know how to configure Wireless LAN for ubuntu? | 18:38 |
| Phill | joaopinto: any ideas? | 18:38 |
| riegersn | ActionParsnip, no go, i updated the pastebin, please have a look: http://pastebin.ca/1257879 | 18:38 |
| joaopinto | Phill, ubuntu uses a standard telnet client, the server is just dropping your connection | 18:38 |
| Ziber | n8tuser: 848K . | 18:38 |
| n8tuser | Dundreary-> some of us do | 18:38 |
| Phill | joaopinto: Blah; ideas on why it's dropping? I can think of way to many. | 18:38 |
| n8tuser | Ziber-> thats puny amount of space to clear..look somewhere else to clean up | 18:38 |
| Dundreary | n8tuser: could you please tell me the procedure or the link which details about this.. | 18:38 |
| ActionParsnip | riegersn: what is your desired res? | 18:38 |
| n8tuser | Ziber places like /var/log | 18:39 |
| riegersn | ActionParsnip, when i launch nvidia-settings, it wont give me any other option but 1680 | 18:39 |
| Ziber | n8tuser: But, Unreal says that there's not enough room on /tmp to write to it. | 18:39 |
| joaopinto | Phill, no idea, you would need to check the logs for the server :P | 18:39 |
| n8tuser | !wireles | Dundreary-> | 18:39 |
| riegersn | ActionParsnip, left laptop monitor: 1440x900 - right external monitor 1680x1050 | 18:39 |
| wisey | n8tuser, it didn't print anything to the shell | 18:39 |
| n8tuser | !wireless | Dundreary-> | 18:39 |
| Phill | joaopinto: That's really hard when I can't log in ;-) | 18:39 |
| wastrel | Ziber: how much room is in /tmp | 18:39 |
| n8tuser | !wifi | Dundreary | 18:39 |
| ubottu | Dundreary: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 18:39 |

| m1ndctrl | hey folks - i'm having some serious issues getting my nvidia 9800 gt running on 8.10 - i've tried everything and the conlusion i'm coming to is that it isn't supported - can anyone shed some light please? 3 days now trying to get my new box up and running :( | 18:40 |
| wastrel | what's the total size of the partition Ziber | 18:40 |
| joaopinto | Ziber, pastebin "df -m" | 18:40 |
| joaopinto | Ziber, do you have /tmp on your regular system partition ? | 18:40 |
| Dominik1 | I just did sudo apt-get autoremove seamonkey but seamonkey is still on my computer, still runs just fine... ? | 18:40 |
| riegersn | m1ndctrl, your correct. 8.10 is using a newer version of xorg that isn't supported fully by nvidia | 18:40 |
| n8tuser | wisey-> you may not have the correct repositories in your resource.list | 18:40 |
| Ziber | joaopinto: http://rafb.net/p/k6Bja611.html | 18:40 |
| Ziber | joaopinto: not sure... | 18:40 |
| joaopinto | Dominik1, sudo apt-get remove seamonkey (not autremove) | 18:40 |
| goat|lappy | Dominik1: its remove, not autoremove | 18:41 |
| Dominik1 | I thought autoremove removes more.. | 18:41 |
| Knifa_ | How do I get aptitude to COMPLETELY remove and then COMPLETELY reinstall a package? I'm trying to reinstall mysql-server but it's refusing to recreate the stuff in /etc | 18:41 |
| riegersn | ActionParsnip, do you have any ideas for me? im beating myself up over hear | 18:41 |
| m1ndctrl | riegersn: i get shoved to initramfs when i try and install 8.04 - any work arounds for this? i've read that it is regarding sata support but i'm at a slight loss with how to get around it - basically i either end up in initramfs or i get to install but no drives found... | 18:41 |
| Dominik1 | but now I can't execute remove anymore either because it says seamonkey isn't installed | 18:41 |
| goat|lappy | Dominik1: purge removes and clears packages from machine | 18:41 |
| atmosfer | how to install ubuntu threw live session without burned cd threw internet? | 18:41 |
| wos | this is a simple question, ive looked at !tv and !mythbuntu and all that, where can i find a simple list of usb tv-tuner cards that work with ubuntu? | 18:42 |
| joaopinto | Ziber, you only have 156mbs on your system, I guess that will not be sufficient for unreal | 18:42 |
| riegersn | m1ndctrl, that i can't help you with buddy, sorry | 18:42 |
| amalgama | joaopinto, bazhang.... /j ##windows didnt work...actually, i booted back to windows and wifi worked, then i booted to ubuntu again so i can ask you and NOW wifi doesnt work in linux...... | 18:42 |
| m1ndctrl | riegersn: thanks anyways. | 18:42 |
| Ziber | joaopinto: ... Wait, what? | 18:42 |
| Phill | exit | 18:42 |
| Phill | whoops | 18:42 |
| wisey | n8tuser, its my first linux installation, all i've done is link it to the internet. using ubuntu 7.10 | 18:42 |
| wos | sorry didnt want to come across as rude! | 18:42 |
| error404notfound | is there a way to install ubuntu from internet ftp/http/local nfs server? | 18:42 |
| Ziber | joaopinto: But... how's that possible in my home dir is taking up 1.1g? | 18:42 |
| ActionParsnip | riegersn: all i know is have the single res you want and no other, it should force it | 18:42 |
| Ziber | *1.1gb | 18:42 |
| === [1]matitaccia is now known as matitaccia | ||
| Dominik1 | so how do I get rid of seamonkey now? I can't do remove or purge both say seamonkey isn't installed, but it is | 18:43 |
| wos | this is a simple question, ive looked at !tv and !mythbuntu and all that, where can i find a simple list of usb tv-tuner cards that work with ubuntu? | 18:43 |
| joaopinto | amalgama, have you considered that your wifi card may be experiencing hw failure ? Since you get random failures on both systems ? | 18:43 |
| m1ndctrl | does anyone else know how to get around the initramfs boot error when trying to install 8.04? | 18:43 |
| joaopinto | amalgama, or, that you have low signal ? | 18:43 |
| wisey | i don't know about repositories yet! | 18:43 |
| wos | any help would be kindly appreciated :) | 18:43 |
| n8tuser | wisey-> being your first linux install, i do not recommend compiling and installing from a source, a bit complicated for newbies, use synaptic to install | 18:43 |
| Ziber | joaopinto: I'm not good with dealing with disks, etc, on ubuntu yet. | 18:43 |
| n8tuser | wos-> you have been advised earlier of hardware compatibility list, now use it | 18:44 |
| joaopinto | Ziber, ops, sorry, you have 156GBs free | 18:44 |
| joaopinto | Ziber, there is something wrong with your /tmp | 18:44 |
| Ziber | joaopinto: Yes... that makes more sense. | 18:44 |
| wos | n8tuser: where is that ??? | 18:44 |
| Ziber | joaopinto: How to fix? | 18:44 |
| meoblast001 | how do i run usplash without restarting my system | 18:44 |
| meoblast001 | and how do i end it | 18:44 |
| n8tuser | Ziber-> may i suggest doing some tutorials on how linux works? it will greatly help a lot | 18:44 |
| adriaan | hi, i wonder how i can use iwl4965 driver instead of iwlagn, both versions are installed on my system? | 18:44 |
| Knifa_ | jesus aptitude is a pain in the ass | 18:44 |
| wisey | oh ye, synaptic says something about xchat not being compatible with my hardware! | 18:44 |
| joaopinto | Ziber, do you have any entry for /tmp on /etc/fstab ? | 18:44 |
| Ziber | n8tuser: Any paritcular tutorials on fixing /tmp? | 18:44 |
| Clonze | what's the best distribution for Multimedia applications, ( cd burning, Internet applications ..etc.. ) As well as a nice GUI with excellent hardware support? | 18:44 |
| atmosfer | how to install ubuntu threw live session without burned cd threw internet? | 18:44 |
| ssmy | meoblast001: i don't know if that is possible... | 18:45 |
| wos | n8tuser: where is that??? | 18:45 |
| meoblast001 | =( | 18:45 |
| joaopinto | you have a very unusual mount entry for /tmp, it was not supposed to be listed | 18:45 |
| n8tuser | wos-> you have to scroll back, someone already suggested hardware compatibility, or google for it | 18:45 |
| Ziber | joaopinto: You'll have to either explain what that means, or tell me how to find out. | 18:45 |
| joaopinto | Ziber, /etc/fstab is the file which defines the partitions to be used by the system | 18:45 |
| faria_- | Good joaopinto | 18:45 |
| n8tuser | Ziber-> worry about how linux work first before worrying about fixing, for better understanding | 18:45 |
| ssmy | wos: easiest way is to just find one that looks good you want, then search google to see if it works | 18:45 |
| joaopinto | Ziber, on a terminal, cat /etc/fstab | 18:45 |
| joaopinto | Ziber, and see if there is a line containing /tmp | 18:45 |
| amalgama | joaopinto, low signal not possible because there are more than 5 networks around me... hw failure i dont know, but it sounds difficult because it used to work and after the dual booting it does these strange things.. | 18:46 |
| hanna | I'm trying to apply compiz as my window mananger but all I get is an error telling me that it was not able to do it. I'm guessing it has to do with drivers so is there any smooth way of making sure that my drivers are active and working? | 18:46 |
| UnknownUser56 | A quick question,can I set the swap size after the install ? | 18:46 |
| Ziber | joaopinto: There's not. | 18:46 |
| n8tuser | UnknownUser56-> yes | 18:46 |
| ssmy | Clonze: i have had good experiences with ubuntu =) | 18:46 |
| ssmy | UnknownUser56: possible, but a pain,i believe | 18:46 |
| Clonze | unbunto or mandriva? | 18:46 |
| wisey | n8tuser, i'm getting into linux to learn how to program | 18:46 |
| ssmy | hanna: what is your graphics card | 18:46 |
| joaopinto | amalgama, like I said, OSes are independent, whatever you do on linux should not be relevant to the windows driver, or the way around | 18:46 |
| n8tuser | wisey-> get to know the linux system first, its very helpful | 18:47 |
| wos | ssmy thnx | 18:47 |
| joaopinto | Ziber, cab you reboot and pastebin the df -m ? | 18:47 |
| ssmy | np | 18:47 |
| hanna | ssmy, It is an nVidia 9600 I belive | 18:47 |
| Ziber | joaopinto: Like I said... I'd prefer to do this all without having to reboot... | 18:47 |
| wisey | n8tuser, where should i start | 18:47 |
| ssmy | hanna: go to system > administration > hardware drivers i believe, or something like that. | 18:47 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: is the server in use now? | 18:47 |
| UnknownUser56 | Oh ? A google search will probably clear things up | 18:47 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: Yes. | 18:47 |
| n8tuser | wisey-> google for ubuntu linux tutorial or get a book on ubuntu linux | 18:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: what function does it perform? | 18:48 |
| ssmy | hanna: it should show your driver, with a red light next to it. | 18:48 |
| hanna | Ahh thank you ssmy | 18:48 |
| joaopinto | Ziber, what is wrong with rebooting ? | 18:48 |
| paul5678 | n8tuser: this is the outcome of the route and resolv config from my laptop behind the linksys | 18:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: if its a server, why are you installing games on it?? | 18:48 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: Its running ... a few eggdrops, a few ircds, hosting 4 websites, etc. | 18:48 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: games? | 18:48 |
| paul5678 | n8tuser: http://paste.ubuntu.com/73014/ | 18:48 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: what games? | 18:48 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: UnrealIRCd :P | 18:48 |
| wisey | n8tuser, it would help if i had irc on my pc though. so that i don't have to use my powerbook g4 for xchat | 18:48 |
| amalgama | joaopinto, turning on and off wifi card isnt relevant?? i mean since both OSes do something like that at startup or when they turn off... and since my wifi switch doesnt work with ubuntu, what can i do to turn on my wifi card, or check if its enabled?? | 18:48 |
| hanna | ssmy, not with a red but a gray light wchich indicates that they are inactive. So It's fixing it now | 18:49 |
| joaopinto | Ziber, there is something terrible wrong with your /tmp, you should reboot | 18:49 |
| UnknownUser56 | strange error when creating system files - the ext3 file system creation in partition of SCS|1(0,0,0)(sda) failed ,know the cause ? | 18:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: then id look around to see what you can remove, you could try sudo apt-get clean | 18:49 |
| joaopinto | ActionParsnip, it's not a problem of lacking space, check his df -h | 18:49 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: apt-get clean didnt seem to do much. | 18:49 |
| joaopinto | the /tmp is strangely mounted as an overflow type partition | 18:49 |
| VastHappyDude | hello | 18:50 |
| Germanaz0 | hi everybody | 18:50 |
| Ziber | overflow 1.0M 848K 176K 83% /tmp | 18:50 |
| VastHappyDude | i have a small problem with getting my itunes shared library to open in ubuntu | 18:50 |
| n8tuser | paul68-> what the heck did you do, you have same subnet as the server eth1 and your linksys lan side? all in 192.168.1.X subnet? | 18:50 |
| Germanaz0 | hey | 18:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: it purges old debs from /var/apt/cache | 18:50 |
| n8tuser | wisey-> pc? which os? | 18:50 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: alright... | 18:50 |
| Germanaz0 | do you know what's funny ? | 18:50 |
| Dundreary | n8tuser: thanks | 18:51 |
| Germanaz0 | chmod 777 -r / | 18:51 |
| Germanaz0 | that's funny :X | 18:51 |
| wisey | ubuntu 7.10 | 18:51 |
| joaopinto | ActionParsnip, that will not free space on the current /tmp ! | 18:51 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: so if you've done a large install you will have lots of debs clutering the place | 18:51 |
| n8tuser | Dundreary-> once you read that, specific question we will assist some more | 18:51 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: do you have another drive you can put in the system | 18:51 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: ah. and, "tre-compile.c:2334: fatal error: error writing to /tmp/ccK5djgg.s: No space left on device" is the unreal error i get. | 18:51 |
| VastHappyDude | germanaz0: what does that do? | 18:51 |
| amalgama | joaopinto, and actually know that we talk here ubuntu says that its connected three times through my cable to a wired network.."auto eth0"..lol | 18:51 |
| Germanaz0 | VastHappyDude- try it | 18:51 |
| stroyan | paul5678: That is looking good, assuming you have eth1 connected to a LAN port as IP address 192.168.1.1. Is that the case? | 18:51 |
| Ziber | ActionParsnip: like i said, im not too good with filesystems and stuff on ubuntu... | 18:51 |
| Germanaz0 | is funny :X | 18:52 |
| Germanaz0 | do weird keymaps | 18:52 |
| VastHappyDude | oh | 18:52 |
| paul5678 | n8tuser: thats the purpose that everything before the server has 192.168.0. and everything on the lanside 192.168.1.0 | 18:52 |
| Germanaz0 | but as root | 18:52 |
| VastHappyDude | will it damage my install? | 18:52 |
| Germanaz0 | nah | 18:52 |
| segnini75 | hello | 18:52 |
| segnini75 | i have a big problem | 18:52 |
| lordc | so I hear | 18:52 |
| paul5678 | stroyan thats the case at this point | 18:52 |
| ActionParsnip | Ziber: you can mount an entire new driver to mount to /tmp | 18:52 |

| n8tuser | paul68-> i think you are missing a point here, your dsl to server subnetn 192.168.0.X -- server to linksy subnet 192.168.1.1 -- linksys lan side another subnet | 18:55 |

| susscorfa | i thought diff was for sorted files only | 18:56 |
| stroyan | paul5678: I don't see any nameserver entry in /etc/resolv.conf. Your dhcpd should be offering some nameserver. Perhaps it could point to itself and run bind9. Or it could point to your ISP. Or it could point to another server like opendns.com | 18:56 |
| VastHappyDude | !! | 18:56 |
| VastHappyDude | dang | 18:56 |
| paul5678 | n8tuser: so you are saying that I use 3 different submets | 18:56 |
| ssmy | susscorfa: grep then? just grep for the line in the files? | 18:56 |
| joaopinto | susscorfa, you will need to script for that | 18:56 |
| n8tuser | paul68-> yes yes yes | 18:56 |
| Germanaz0 | sudo cp /boot/grub default menu.lst | 18:56 |
| paul5678 | stroyan: my nameserver is the carrebeanpirates.homedns.org since bind is running on the server | 18:57 |
| susscorfa | ok thx ssmy joaopinto | 18:57 |

| vaurdan | Hello | 18:59 |
| n8tuser | mattgyver83-> use wget | 18:59 |

| joaopinto | Clonze, ubuntu 8.10 desktop, 32 bits | 19:00 |
| fosco_ | Clonze: it is ubuntu, not ubunto, 8.10 desktop 32bits will be OK | 19:00 |
| n8tuser | paul5678-> did you take my advise yet on doing a tutorial on networking? come on, its not that difficult | 19:00 |
| Clonze | k, thank you | 19:00 |

| gustavold | n8tuser: I don't know how to interpret lshal's output | 19:01 |
| joaopinto | mattgyver83, dyndns has a method which does not require scripting | 19:01 |
| n8tuser | stroyan-> you are giving incomplete info, he needs three subnets to make it work easier.. | 19:01 |
| n8tuser | gustavold-> look at it a page at a time, its pretty self explanatory.. | 19:02 |

| n8tuser | gustavold-> there you go, it gives you some hints on what your kernel detected from your system | 19:03 |

| stroyan | paul5678: Your earlier paste of /etc/dhcpd.conf had only domain-name and not domain-name-servers. | 19:04 |
| n8tuser | wisey-> not that complicated, but you are such a newbie and do not like to listen to my advise of doing a tutorial, it wil be difficult | 19:04 |

| n8tuser | tangZ-> we use bash or python or perl, your choice, please do a tutorial on any of those i mentioned to get familiarity | 19:06 |
| wisey | do i | 19:06 |
| Gnea | !shortcuts | tangZ | 19:07 |
| ubottu | tangZ: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts | 19:07 |
| stroyan | paul5678: Restart the dhcpd and then the client. And then see if the client can do a 'host' lookup of and address. | 19:07 |
| n8tuser | wisey-> we all need to learn stuff by reading, adn trying things out, sometime if the tutorials says install a piece of sw, then do to get a good experience | 19:07 |

| adac | n8tuser: I think disable the driver/module would do the trick....but I don't know which driver is responsable for the cam | 19:11 |

| n8tuser | adac and maybe a driver will be listed too | 19:12 |
| ssmy | rodolfo: works both ways | 19:12 |

| tangZ | how can i make ubuntu to load a ntfs partition automaticly? | 19:13 |
| c-murder | this is the help irc 4 ubuntu right? | 19:13 |

| joaopinto | Coggz, what is your problem ? | 19:13 |
| rodolfo | ssmy I can't see the controls unless I press 'H' key | 19:13 |

| Gnea | c-murder: yes. | 19:14 |
| ssmy | rodolfo: right click on the playing video, there should be a checkbox called 'show controls' | 19:14 |
| rodolfo | ssmy, either way the movie frame s still set to fullscreen... | 19:14 |
| UnknownUser56 | What am I doing wrong now | 19:14 |
| bk | hey | 19:14 |
| Coggz | joaopinto: i need some app specific help, not ubuntu just to let you know :) | 19:14 |
| UnknownUser56 | This is why I prefere live cds | 19:14 |
| joaopinto | Coggz, then you are on the wrong channel ;) | 19:14 |
| bk | I created a list of installed packages with dpkg --get-selections > installed-software | 19:14 |
| Coggz | joaopinto: how do i cut out a small slit in a face | 19:14 |
| Phill | Hey can I configure my DNS via command line? | 19:14 |
| rodolfo | ssmy, yea there is | 19:14 |
| Coggz | joaopinto: wings channel is empty | 19:14 |
| scientes | does each ubuntu release still start with a snapshot of sid? | 19:14 |
| rodolfo | ssmy, it is already checked | 19:14 |
| ssmy | rodolfo: is it checked? if not, check it | 19:14 |
| joaopinto | Coggz, asking on unrelated channels will not help either :) | 19:14 |
| ssmy | rodolfo: hmm. okay | 19:15 |
| bk | then I did dpkg --set-selections < installed-software | 19:15 |
| Gnea | Phill: yes. | 19:15 |
| bk | after that I did "dselect" and install | 19:15 |
| fosco_ | Phill: yes, sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf | 19:15 |
| bk | but it does not install anything | 19:15 |
| bk | why? | 19:15 |
| joaopinto | scientes, it does | 19:15 |
| bk | is there another way? | 19:15 |
| n8tuser | !clone | bk | 19:15 |
| ubottu | bk: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate | 19:15 |
| Phill | Awesome; and how would I check my DNS; ensuring it's working, via command line? | 19:15 |
| joaopinto | Phill, nslookup www.google.com | 19:15 |
| n8tuser | Phill-> your own dns server? | 19:15 |
| auro | could someone just tell me, how to avoid ubuntu starting rhythmbox when I plug my iPod? | 19:15 |
| nolimitsoya | join #gentoo | 19:15 |
| n8tuser | Phill-> there is also dig dig it! :P | 19:16 |
| ssmy | auro: system > preferences > preffered applications. go to media i believe | 19:16 |
| rodolfo | ssmy, the bad thing is that I don't even know whatever triggered this 'bug' | 19:16 |
| Phill | Crap; seems like slug doesn't even have nano, vim, or emacs. I'm screwed. | 19:16 |
| ssmy | rodolfo: yeah, i can't remember either. | 19:16 |
| bk | hm, n8tuser thanks for your help | 19:17 |
| bk | unfortunately it does not select anything | 19:17 |
| rodolfo | ssmy, Even if I call Totem using the Ubuntu menu it initializes in full screen mode =/ | 19:17 |
| bk | =/ | 19:17 |
| Ryno | I'm having troubles with my wireless PCI card | 19:17 |

| PriceChild | UnknownUser56: no do not mount random things there | 19:17 |

| SwirlBoy39 | I have a wireless card, I'm on ethernet now... How do I get ubuntu to recognize my wireless? | 19:18 |
| bk | n8tuser, yes, it does not upgrade or install anything | 19:19 |
| n8tuser | Ryno-> are you allowed by the owner of the AP ? | 19:19 |
| Ryno | yeah im the owner | 19:19 |
| Ryno | its wpa | 19:19 |
| tangZ | joaopinto la linea que tengo que agregarle ahi seria unicamente: /media/Programas | 19:19 |
| n8tuser | bk-> after you moved over the list to another host? | 19:19 |
| vaurdan | n8tuser, I can play sound, but I can't play any beeps... | 19:19 |
| bk | n8tuser, yes | 19:19 |
| tangZ | o tengo que poner algun otro comando adicional en esa lista? | 19:19 |
| bk | n8tuser, it does not give an error or something | 19:19 |
| joaopinto | !es | tangZ | 19:19 |
| ubottu | tangZ: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 19:19 |

| PriceChild | Ryno: try connecting to an open network first | 19:20 |
| n8tuser | bk oh well, i have not tried those myself, | 19:20 |
| joaopinto | Coggz, /list and search for it | 19:20 |
| Ryno | k, good call | 19:20 |
| PriceChild | Ryno: make sure there's not something silly like mac filtering on | 19:20 |
| Ryno | whats interesting is it says my wireless device is eth1? | 19:20 |

| rodolfo | ssmy, in Gconf-editor, what do I look for? | 19:20 |
| n8tuser | vaurdan-> in your bios, is it activated, isnt there like an option to enable/disable beep, or if you boot an get a keyboard error, do you get a beep? | 19:20 |
| auro | ssmy: there is no media in that window | 19:21 |
| n8tuser | Ryno-> nothing interesting about that, just a different name | 19:21 |
| UnknownUser56 | hmm .. If I choose anything other than '/' to mount ,it says :No root file system is defined. | 19:21 |

| wisey | n8tuser, i'm currently upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04 | 19:21 |
| === mystery is now known as mysteryc[brb] | ||
| paul68 | stroyan: this is the situation now http://paste.ubuntu.com/73040/ | 19:22 |
| Ryno | shouldnt it be wlan or ath? | 19:22 |
| n8tuser | wisey-> why even upgrade? install fresh, or else we are going to spend more time tutoring you again..do a tutorial please | 19:22 |
| wisey | n8tuser the packages are downloading at 200 kb/s | 19:22 |
| ssmy | rodolfo: totem is in there somewhere | 19:22 |
| PriceChild | UnknownUser56: oh sorry are you going through the install process? | 19:22 |
| minimec | SwirlBoy39: first step: try to google for your card in combination with ubuntu. you get the info about your device in 'lsusb' or 'lspci' in a console. 'iwconfig' gives you some info about your device (if recogniced) | 19:22 |
| n8tuser | Ryno-> why does it have to be wlan or ath? it can be bogey it can be barney, anyname it can be | 19:23 |
| rodolfo | ssmy, yea, apps>totem. but I don't know what should I change | 19:23 |
| cory1 | hi everyone | 19:23 |
| hkais | hello | 19:23 |
| cory1 | I'm on here for support | 19:23 |
| ssmy | n8tuser: Ryno: generally it is either eth1, wlan0/1, or ath in my experience | 19:23 |
| Ryno | because it describes the hardware being used, ive never seen a wireless device called eth1, thats usually reserved for an actual ethernet | 19:23 |
| rodolfo | ssmy, there is an option auto-resize.....it's checked | 19:23 |
| n8tuser | ssmy-> but it can be any names just an fyi | 19:24 |
| towlie | how reliable is the badblocks command at detecting hardware errors on a hard drive ? | 19:24 |
| ssmy | rodolfo: uncheck it maybe? | 19:24 |
| rodolfo | :P | 19:24 |
| Asad2005 | i have upgraded my hardy amd64 to 810 and now if i boot with default kernel option 2627 the system drop to built in shell with /dev/disk/by-uuid does not exists but other kernel 2.64 i think boots ok | 19:24 |
| adminuser | miki | 19:24 |
| wisey | n8tuser, what is the difference between upgrading and installing fresh, it produces the same result doesn't it? | 19:24 |
| SwirlBoy39 | minimec: Not recognized | 19:24 |
| joaopinto | towlie, just as reliable as your hardk disk can be, reporting read errors :) | 19:24 |
| ssmy | n8tuser: yes, but that gets confusing when only a few are normally used. for new users at least. | 19:24 |
| adminuser | zzdr | 19:24 |
| stroyan | paul68: Can a client on the linksys network reach the server now? And can it reach the nameserver? Have you set the server to ip forward yet? (sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1) | 19:24 |
| n8tuser | Ryno it is not a rule, it can be any names | 19:24 |
| cory1 | Does anyone know if ubuntu live cd is virus proof? | 19:24 |
| DaveG| | Ryno, i had that on my older laptop, the wireless was eth1, instead of wlan0. nothing to worry about | 19:24 |
| rodolfo | ssmy, done. it worked out =] | 19:24 |
| n8tuser | wisey-> upgrading causes lots of headaches.. | 19:24 |
| towlie | joaopinto, so i take it that you mean that it is reliable | 19:24 |
| DaveG| | Ryno, it'll still work perfectly fine... i know it's annoying but oh well =3 | 19:24 |
| Ryno | k well i can connect to me network when i turn wpa off | 19:24 |
| faria_- | Good DaveG| | 19:24 |
| minimec | SwirlBoy39: ok. try google. you may need to use some madwifi configuration with firmware. | 19:24 |
| rodolfo | ssmy, thank you man! | 19:25 |
| tangZ | so i just have to add the line /media/Programas on /etc/fstab so the partition ntfs starts automaticly with ubuntu? | 19:25 |
| joaopinto | cory1, the cd itself is virus proof, because it's read only :P | 19:25 |
| SwirlBoy39 | minimec: what? | 19:25 |
| joaopinto | towlie, yes | 19:25 |
| n8tuser | ssmy-> nope, you just have to tell them the name is not fixed, it can be anything | 19:25 |
| Ryno | with wpa on it cant connect | 19:25 |
| ssmy | rodolfo: excellent! perhaps the videos you were playing were higher than your screen resolution. i have seen that before cause problems. | 19:25 |
| hkais | sorry for bothering, i have an urgent problem. My upgrade 6.04lts to 8.04lts of the server failed with a system hung. I have started ubuntu-live and mounted my ubuntu and did a chroot on the mountpoint. How can I now resume the upgrade? | 19:25 |
| cory1 | okay, well, I just used the transmission bittorrent | 19:25 |
| DaveG| | Ryno, does your card support wpa? | 19:25 |
| paul68 | stroyan: not reaching anything on the server | 19:25 |
| cetelcom | hola | 19:25 |
| cory1 | and I just want to make sure the exe files are safe | 19:25 |
| joaopinto | hkais, : do-release-upgrade | 19:25 |
| Ryno | dave, yeah | 19:25 |
| minimec | SwirlBoy39: try to use the net to get some more info about your device in combination with ubuntu | 19:25 |
| n8tuser | Ryno-> actually does your driver support wpa ? | 19:25 |
| tangZ | there is no other command? | 19:26 |
| joaopinto | cory1, the are no .exe files on the ubuntu cd, .exe are for windows, not linux | 19:26 |
| pLk | http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=-R6BaDOtPfI | 19:26 |
| bk | how can I copy the home dir of another pc via ssh? | 19:26 |
| bk | i can login via ssh | 19:26 |
| Ryno | guessing not, i just used the generic driver ubuntu provided | 19:26 |
| edman007 | what is the quickest way to start sshd from a fresh install in 8.10? | 19:26 |
| bk | but how is the copy command? | 19:26 |
| joaopinto | tangZ, that's the proper command to upgrade from command line | 19:26 |
| hkais | joaopinto: i am getting no new release found | 19:26 |
| n8tuser | joaopinto-> there is one, i think the wubi.exe | 19:26 |
| fosco_ | bk: scp | 19:26 |
| cory1 | is there a way to do a m5a check? | 19:26 |
| DaveG| | Ryno, what card is it that you're using? and what card is it? | 19:26 |
| ssmy | bk: man scp | 19:26 |
| UnknownUser56 | Even when choosing 'guided' it gives an error which is : The ext3 file system creation in partition #1 of SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sda) failed | 19:26 |
| stroyan | paul68: Does the server see eth1 as 192.168.1.1 ? can a linksys client ping 192.168.1.1? | 19:26 |
| DaveG| | Ryno, i mean what driver and what card* lol | 19:26 |
| UnknownUser56 | suggestions please | 19:26 |
| tangZ | wubi.exe is for windows | 19:26 |
| rodolfo | ssmy, hmm I am going to report this 'manual fix' to lp but I thought the totem team (or gnome team) were aware of it already..or that was a workaround on this issue.. | 19:27 |
| n8tuser | edman007-> apt-get install open-sshd | 19:27 |
| ssmy | tangZ: good point. | 19:27 |
| joaopinto | hkais, sudp apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 19:27 |

| DaveG| | Ryno, hmm, i had problems with that, i couldn't get a card liek that to connect to my wireless network... but i didn't purse it... | 19:28 |
| n8tuser | Ryno-> sudo lshw -C network | 19:28 |
| cory1 | hkais | 19:28 |

| bre4kbeat | a bin file is locked with an emblem and it wont let me move it | 19:31 |
| ssmy | bk: just type quit | 19:31 |
| bre4kbeat | how can i move it someone? | 19:31 |
| DaveG| | Ryno, like with you, i just type ryn and press tab, and then it auto completes your name. so then when i talk to you it should "highlight" my message | 19:31 |
| hkais | cory1: there has your upgrade failed? | 19:31 |

| joaopinto | Q-Man, md5sum file | 19:31 |
| bre4kbeat | ive done it from terminal | 19:32 |

| Q-Man | joaopinto: and the package is called 'md5sum'? | 19:32 |
| joaopinto | bre4kbeat, please ask on the proper channel, it's #winehq | 19:32 |

| ncfi1013_ | would i have to use avidemux to convert .flac files to mp3 format? | 19:33 |
| joaopinto | Q-Man, the package is installed by default, it's coreutils | 19:33 |
| cory1 | hkais: i'm using the 8.10 live cd | 19:33 |
| stroyan | paul68: If you want the linksys network clients to route through 192.168.1.12 you will need to tell them about it. You could set the /etc/dhcpd.conf routers line to that address. Or you could possibly set the linksys to route through that address. I don't see any benefit to go through the linksys router address to get to the eth1 card. | 19:33 |
| bk | hm, I am somehow too stupid for scp... why does "sudo scp basil@192.168.1.33/~ /home/basil/" not work? | 19:33 |
| Q-Man | joaopinto: okay, thanks. | 19:33 |
| hkais | cory1: i haven't got your problem | 19:33 |
| bre4kbeat | joaopinto, oh yea lots of people in there to help me...thats why i came here | 19:34 |

| seronis_ | deardeath, have you burned an Intrepid cd and run it as a LiveCD to see if you actually do have a resolution problem ? | 20:29 |
| deardeath | x was a ranvom value | 20:29 |
| joaopinto | atmosfer, no, the problem is that you don't understand what you are doing, I already instructed you to chroot and then execute the dpkg command, knowing that you are doing something dangerous | 20:30 |

The volume control knob on the laptop cannot be touched, because if I touch it the volume moves all the way either to 0 or 100 and keeps on going, and the volume icon stays on the screen, interrupting all other keyboard inputs... I have to restart x because the nothing works... any ideas? | 20:30 |
| joaopinto | flacom, vmware | 20:31 |
| Lancelot_ | joaopinta: k, one sec, let me try | 20:31 |
| lneely | flacom, qemu or VirtualBox. | 20:31 |
| joaopinto | or virtualbox | 20:31 |

| pchong_ | I'm trying to install Intrepid off a LiveCD that I burned myself. When I select "Try ubuntu" (first option in the menu), after a while I get a login screen. What username and password am I supposed to use here? I've never seen this with any previous version of Ubuntu | 20:31 |
| Xtreme_Great | hot_fuzz: I googled and found some solutions at ubuntuforums.org, but they didn't work... I just can't find the build directory there... | 20:31 |
| seronis_ | deardeath, what do you have against Intrepid ? | 20:31 |
| deardeath | I don't know what Intrepid is. | 20:32 |
| joaopinto | pchong_, that means the graphical sessions couldn't be setup, have you tried to boot with the VESA mode option ? | 20:32 |
| seronis_ | 8.10 | 20:32 |
| hot_fuzz | Xtreme_Great, I don't remember what to do in that case, sorry :( | 20:32 |
| seronis_ | hardy == 8.04 | 20:32 |
| ssmy | deardeath: the new version of ubuntu, 8.10 | 20:32 |
| Xtreme_Great | :( | 20:32 |
| cousteau | flacom, definitively VirtualBox; but download it from the webpage, not from repositories | 20:32 |
| deardeath | oh great! Didn't know that. | 20:32 |
| pchong_ | joaopinto- no, I have not tried that. How do I do that please? | 20:32 |
| deardeath | So I'll install hardy then upgrade it, perhaps that'll fix the problem if someone added in display fixes. | 20:32 |
| seronis_ | deardeath, download the new iso and run it as a live cd. it fixes even more issues than Hardy fixed. working great for me | 20:32 |
| seronis_ | deardeath, just install Intrepid | 20:33 |

| joaopinto | arno-t, does that pentium IV have 2 cpus ? | 20:57 |
| break_free | ninjacat, in the terminal you can hit edit then profiles and you can edit your profile to use whatever font you wish | 20:57 |

| arno-t | joaopinto, how do I find out? | 20:58 |
| ninjacat | <break_free>, The font doesn't come with it, I have to get the code from somewhere. | 20:58 |
| hvgotcodes | hey if i have a core2duo i should have put 64-bit ubuntu on it right? | 20:58 |
| joaopinto | arno-t, why are you complaining that it just reports 1 cpu, when you don't know if it has more :) ? | 20:59 |
| samako93 | not necessarily | 20:59 |
| gaard | easynews.com | 20:59 |
| Finnish | I've got ath0 and eth0, but what is wifi? | 20:59 |
| joaopinto | Finnish, ath0 is your wifi device name | 20:59 |
| break_free | ninjacat, this is probably pretty google-able. Just find the font and put it in your fonts folder | 20:59 |

| arno-t | joaopinto, OK maybe I'm wrong, but I thought cpuinfo would report 2 cpus on a Pentium 4 - doesn't it have two cores? | 21:00 |
| passive | HI i'm trying to upgrade to Ubuntu 8.10 with offline upgrade, but it wants to install some none-gnome packages eg. kdelibs ? | 21:00 |
| ninjacat | Fonts folder? | 21:00 |
| joaopinto | arno-t, no, it's not dual core | 21:00 |
| ssmy | arno-t: no, it has hyperthreading. comnpletely different deal. | 21:00 |
| Baatti | towlie: chown <username> <directory> I believe | 21:00 |
| ninjacat | Where is the fonts folder? | 21:01 |
| towlie | Baatti, that does not work | 21:01 |

| towlie | Baatti, i figured it out. | 21:02 |
| joaopinto | Baatti, you can't chown a FAT32 mounted dir | 21:02 |
| joaopinto | towlie, what was the problem ? | 21:02 |
| DracNoc | ninjacat, you should find your fonts folder at /usr/share/fonts | 21:02 |
| arno-t | joaopinto, ssmy, okay thanks I guess cpuinfo will list two processors only if I have two physical chips then. Right? | 21:02 |
| Baatti | oh | 21:02 |
| Baatti | towlie sorry | 21:02 |
| towlie | joaopinto, this mount option worked: sudo mount -o rw,umask=000,uid=1000,gid=1000 /dev/hdb2 /mnt/2nd-backup/ | 21:03 |
| Baatti | what is a FAT32 mounted directory? | 21:03 |
| genii | ninjacat: Maybe look in /usr/share/fonts | 21:03 |
| joaopinto | arno-t, no, it will also report 2 cpus for dual core systems | 21:03 |
| Quark | Baatti: I believe it is a windows filesystem. | 21:03 |

| hvgotcodes | samako93: isn't it a compile option? | 21:10 |

| mker | joaopinto: thanks | 21:34 |
| zsquareplusc | mker: dpg -> debug. so it may come with special libraries that allow easier debugging for developers. and it may have more debug messages output | 21:34 |
| benanzo | I've already enabled ip forwarding on the server and my routing table is set appropriately | 21:34 |

| togo | e? | 21:38 |
| Slart | lgrinberg: hmm.. let me check with google.. see what it has to say | 21:38 |
| joaopinto | mcquaid, just add a dynamic conf file to /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ and run ldconfig | 21:39 |

| Bradj47 | is there some weird update i installed that messed this up? | 21:41 |
| zsquareplusc | define "stopped working" | 21:41 |
| wisey | hi, i'd like to know how i can get my TP-LINK network adapter working with ubuntu. I'm going to install 8.10 and don't know if it is supported natively! | 21:41 |
| Bradj47 | they stopped playing | 21:41 |
| zsquareplusc | Bradj47: so the player aborts playing. or is there just no sound and/or video? | 21:42 |
| Bradj47 | no | 21:42 |
| samako93 | wisey: check with the livecd before you install then :p | 21:42 |
| Bradj47 | zsquareplusc, i open the file with a player and it says the file is playing but the time marker isn't moving and theres no sound coming out of the headphones | 21:42 |
| wisey | i upgraded from 7.10 to 8.04, and 8.04 didn't recognise an adapter but its definately working because i'm using it under vista right now! | 21:42 |
| Slart | lgrinberg: I can't find anything about a Iomega Elite.. are you sure that's what it's called? | 21:43 |
| wisey | samako93, i know how to make the livecd but what do you mean by check? | 21:43 |
| zsquareplusc | Bradj47: the files are local on your disk or over network? | 21:44 |
| lgrinberg | Slart: Oh, damn, my deepest apologies. It's Iomega _Prestige_, not Elite. Sorry, silly marketing things... | 21:44 |
| Slart | lgrinberg: hehe.. no worries.. | 21:44 |
| samako93 | wisey: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/dvd/current/ | 21:44 |
| Bradj47 | zsquareplusc, local disk | 21:44 |
| samako93 | if you burn that to a dvd you can run linux from the dvd without installing it | 21:44 |
| Bradj47 | local SATA hard drive | 21:44 |
| samako93 | if your wireless works in the live environment then it should work when you upgrade to 8.10 | 21:44 |
| Melik | is there any software on linux that will "optimize" your system | 21:45 |
| zsquareplusc | Bradj47: hm. maybe the players can not open something like the video or audio device. i usually use vlc. there you can open a "messages" box. i'd check there for error messages | 21:45 |
| Melik | so it can perform better | 21:45 |
| Bradj47 | vlc wouldn't play them either | 21:45 |
| zsquareplusc | Bradj47: but you could look at the error messages. other players often have such a message window too. | 21:46 |
| Bradj47 | ok | 21:46 |
| wisey | samako93, does this mean i can load 8.10 without making the installation on my hard-drive. | 21:46 |
| samako93 | it means you load the operating system from the dvd only | 21:47 |
| Slart | lgrinberg: have you tried this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=605461 | 21:47 |
| samako93 | it boots from dvd | 21:47 |
| faryshta | Melik, if you want your system to run faster you might want to try XFCE desktop or any other with low requirements. | 21:48 |
| DavidCanarias | Can anyone help me with a URL problem? | 21:48 |
| UnknownUser56 | I'm stuck installing ubuntu 8.10 from my live cd ,I tried debugging as far as I can with no success,here are the exact steps I took and the errors that were shown,please help http://s412.photobucket.com/albums/pp205/None_0x04/?action=view¤t=error-2.png | 21:48 |
| wisey | samado93, ok i can test it and if 8.10 doesn't work, just re-install 7.10 because i know that one did! | 21:48 |
| XiXaQ | from the dvd, you can install ubuntu desktop in live or alternate mode, and server? | 21:48 |
| UnknownUser56 | I posed the issue many times,but it's as if no one can help me with the problem | 21:48 |

| uman | Hi everyone one, i have a programming question and dont know where to ask it so i would really appreciate it if you guys could help me out or tell me where to ask it. All i want to do is a simple little app (in visual c++ or visual basic 2008) where i have a list of words in the source code and when i run the app i can see the first word in like a form box or somthing, then there should be a button i can click that makes the first word that was in the form box | 21:50 |
| uman | be replaced by the second word. when that button is pressed again, the previous word is replaced by the next and so on. Im desperate, i really need this. Thanks in advance. (i guess it could also be in python if i use the text editor, and i need it to run in windows xp. Thanks | 21:50 |
| UnknownUser56 | I made a / mount of 200mb,a /home of 80gb & a swap of 4gb,but the error is persistent ,see http://s412.photobucket.com/albums/pp205/None_0x04/?action=view¤t=error-2.png | 21:50 |
| UnknownUser56 | Any help would be greatly appreciated | 21:50 |
| wisey | samado93, there must be a work-around though. To get the TP-LINK working on 8.10. How do you find out about such things. | 21:50 |
| lgrinberg | Slart: | 21:50 |
| lgrinberg | Slart: actually | 21:50 |
| lgrinberg | Slart: that worked | 21:50 |

| inkybutton | !info jmemory | 21:53 |
| ubottu | Package jmemory does not exist in intrepid | 21:53 |

| uman | linkybutton, can it run on windows? | 21:54 |
| samako93 | lolol SRS problem | 21:54 |
| faryshta | My recomendation for partition acording to your hard drive would be 10gb for the directory / | 21:55 |
| inkybutton | uman: oh you want it on windows? this is the ubuntu IRC btw :D | 21:55 |
| faryshta | the amount you have of ram for the swap file at the end of the disk | 21:55 |
| faryshta | and the rest for /home | 21:55 |
| Obama_Please | i just installed 8.10 for my architecture but it doesnt install drivers for my hardware: it ignores the activation of drivers from gnome, and my Pidgin messenger freezes after a couple of clicks (should be a VGA issue) | 21:55 |
| uman | linkybutton, sorry, heah i know.. didnt know another channel/server.. i usually get a lot of help here | 21:55 |
| UnknownUser56 | So 10gb for / ,4gb for swap usage and the rest for /home ? | 21:55 |
| samako93 | that is serious | 21:56 |
| faryshta | UnknownUser56, how much ram you have and will you install 32 bits or 64 bits system? | 21:56 |
| UnknownUser56 | Also, | 21:56 |
| Bradj47 | zsquareplusc, i can't find an audio player with an error log like you were talking abouut | 21:56 |
| faryshta | other stuff is you want to have many programs on your computer, a webserver or a database? | 21:56 |
| UnknownUser56 | 64 ,with 2gb of ram | 21:57 |
| inkybutton | uman:hm i cant find it atm - but i presume that you're trying to learn to spell the list of words - why cant you just do it in real life? :) | 21:57 |
| UnknownUser56 | Ext3 partition for the / ,10gb ..Ex2 would be better in that case ,yes ? | 21:57 |
| faryshta | UnknownUser56, then for swap chose 3gb, actually the swap is better not to be used but if you want to hibernate your computer you will need at least so much swap as ram. | 21:57 |
| faryshta | UnknownUser56, you can choose ext3 for both partitions. | 21:58 |
| zsquareplusc | Bradj47: vlc: extra->messages here it opens up a window with messages when i play a file. you may also try to run the application in a terminal window some print errors there | 21:58 |
| UnknownUser56 | faryshta:thanks for the help | 21:58 |
| Bradj47 | ok | 21:58 |
| faryshta | UnknownUser56, you will have many programs installed on your computer, a webserver or a database? | 21:58 |
| Obama_Please | i just installed 8.10 for my architecture but it doesnt install drivers for my hardware: it ignores the activation of drivers from gnome, and my Pidgin messenger freezes after a couple of clicks (should be a VGA issue) | 21:59 |
| Bradj47 | zsquareplusc, i don't see an 'extra' drop down menu on vlc. | 21:59 |
| Slart | Obama_Please: what hardware isn't it installing drivers for? | 21:59 |
| UnknownUser56 | faryshta:possibly a web server | 22:00 |
| zsquareplusc | Bradj47: you run 8.04 then? the version there has the messges entry in one of the other menus | 22:00 |
| C0p3rn1c | hi | 22:00 |
| bullgard4 | How can I change the mountpoint of my USB FAT32 partition /dev/sdb3 from /media/80Backup to /media/BckupMD8? | 22:00 |
| faryshta | UnknownUser56, then your / partition will need more space since all the server and database will be installed there. | 22:00 |
| Bradj47 | zsquareplusc, no according to the info im running a really old version, 0.806e. ill download a later version | 22:01 |
| C0p3rn1c | is it safe to install the freevo rpm on ubuntu | 22:01 |
| C0p3rn1c | ? | 22:01 |
| faryshta | well that is something you must choose, just remind that installed programs, database and webserver goes to / | 22:01 |
| faryshta | other stufff as music, photographies and videos go to /home | 22:01 |

| Obama_Please | my mainboard is ASUS | 22:02 |

| zsquareplusc | Bradj47: try pressing "ctrl-M" in vlc it should open it. | 22:02 |
| faryshta | UnknownUser56, is not so difficult | 22:03 |

| UnknownUser56 | I use live cds for my nix uses and thought of switching completely .. a bad idea it was | 22:05 |

| Dr_willis | bullgard4, i recall by default it uses the drive label or 'disk' if it has none | 22:16 |
| Slart | bullgard4: there are command line utilities to set the label for most file systems.. e2label for ext2/3 is one example | 22:17 |
| heret1c | mgjscdhl: ah. had that prob with an ext dvd writer in kub. | 22:17 |
| Zion123 | im not sure what you mean n8tuser ..could you explain please? | 22:17 |
| zsquareplusc | Zion123: you shoud not be ashamed that you dont eun windows ;-) but there is some desktop theme out there that mimics the XP look. i just dont rememeber its name :/ | 22:17 |
| zsquareplusc | s/eun/run | 22:17 |
| mgjscdhl | heret1c> oh? newest one or this sometime ago? | 22:18 |
| bullgard4 | Dr_willis, Slart There exists no label yet. If it does not exist, how can I change it? | 22:18 |
| Zion123 | the computer i have to use this on must boot from ta LiveCD..it has no harddrive | 22:18 |
| n8tuser | bullgard4-> you can use the udev rules | 22:18 |
| Dr_willis | Zion123, a live cd running a script every time it boots is not that good an idea.. there are live cd's that work as web-browser koisks they just run firefox.. if thats all they need. | 22:18 |
| jrib | bullgard4: the same way I told you this morning :) | 22:18 |
| n8tuser | bullgard4-> you can use the udev rules and create the symlink | 22:18 |
| heret1c | mgjscdhl: tried using the gnome ubuntu cd? | 22:18 |
| Slart | bullgard4: then use the utility to set the label | 22:19 |
| mgjscdhl | heret1c> nah, I assumed (prob incorrectly) they'd basically do the same thing | 22:19 |
| bullgard4 | jrib: My solution this morning was 'sudo tune2fs -L BackupMD9 /dev/sdb1'. But this applied to an ext3 partition. | 22:20 |

| Slart | zapconquest: I have *a* nvidia driver.. I don't know if it's *the* nvidia driver | 22:22 |
| Slart | seronis: then I have no idea.. get a paperclip to force it out | 22:22 |
| zapconquest | when the new distro came out the binary nvidia drivers didn't work with it -- how do I find out when the new ones that work will come out? | 22:23 |
| seronis | Slart: i can do that. just wasnt sure if there was some other 'right way' to do it | 22:23 |
| mgjscdhl | while I'm here, does anybody have a name of a small ubuntu project? are there some on mini cds (200mb) or in that range? | 22:23 |

| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 22:24 |
| Obama_Please | ok thanks | 22:24 |
| Slart | seronis: "eject" is the only other way I know of.. there might be someone else with a better idea out there though | 22:24 |
| bullgard4 | n8tuser: I consider udev rules a too big gun for such a small task. I am not much acquainted with udev rules. | 22:25 |
| zapconquest | how does one find out when the nvidia drivers are out? I don't have hardware acceleration yet | 22:25 |
| jrib | bullgard4: I don't know what is in ./set_msdos_label.sh and the error tells you what to do (and it's on the wiki) | 22:25 |
| _ykram | is midibuntu small? its for eepc with low mem | 22:25 |
| Slart | zapconquest: I didn't know about this.. the binary drivers worked nicely for me in both 8.04 and 8.10.. | 22:25 |
| mgjscdhl | _yram> midibuntu? | 22:26 |
| Slart | _ykram: check the download page.. but I think it would be small considering it's made for smaller internet connected machines | 22:26 |
| _ykram | and i think the xfce ubuntu is for low mem low cpu | 22:26 |
| zapconquest | slart: hmm the release notes talked about the binary drivers not being ready and they certainly don't work for me yet | 22:26 |
| seronis | Slart: strangely enough the icon changed to a disk (now its mounted) and its saying an application is preventing the disk from being unmounted. any command to check what process is interferring ? | 22:26 |
| n8tuser | bullgard4-> but the way you stated your requirements, there are no way to get it accomplished without the fstab | 22:26 |
| panfist | i was wondering if there was a way similar to tail -f to monitor files that have contents that change instead of appended | 22:27 |
| Slart | seronis: lsof lists open files | 22:27 |
| seronis | ty | 22:27 |
| n8tuser | panfist-> i have suggested much ealier about inotify, did you attempt to google for it yet? | 22:27 |
| panfist | n8tuser im sorry i didnt see that | 22:27 |
| Pici | panfist: You could use `watch` in combination with cat, or tail, or head, or similar. | 22:27 |
| jrib | zapconquest: find the appropriate bug on bugs.ubuntu.com and check its status | 22:28 |

| bullgard4 | n8tuser: I do not believe you: i.) People told me the same when I tried to rename my ext3 partitions. ii.) I did name this FAT32 partition a year ago without the use of /etc/fstab. But I forgot how I did it. | 22:28 |
| Slart | zapconquest: ahh.. you're talking about the legacy driver.. 71 and 96-series, correct? | 22:29 |

| ruperdupe | thanks jrib | 22:29 |
| zapconquest | Slart: actually I'm not sure what driver I need, but it stopped working after the upgrade. I have a geforce 7600 | 22:29 |
| ruperdupe | yep works. Awesome! | 22:29 |
| n8tuser | bullgard4-> its okay if you dont believe me, you have all these questions that is not common to a standard install, and when you are given a solution you dish it, so suffer! | 22:30 |
| Slart | blobX: there are several "governors" that handle this.. you can change them by using some kind of utility.. I use a gnome-panel thingy | 22:30 |

| seronis | buckbuntu11: different operating systems have different uses. if you have enough hard drive space to comfortably have both installed then there is no reason NOT to have both instlled. just boot into whichever one will be most useful for what you need to do at that instant | 22:34 |

| fus10nx | any other suggestions? | 22:42 |
| fus10nx | i feel like i'm very close to getting it to work | 22:42 |
| Dominik2 | smil3y: I know I just wanted it to be known why I belive not everybody is using linux exclusivly yet (especially with vista) | 22:42 |
| storrgie | ugarit: pm me, i could help you with raid | 22:42 |
| Slart | zapconquest: hmm.. most annoying.. you can check the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log to look for errors | 22:42 |
| m308 | does crontab keep a log of what it last run ? or is there a way to verify a crontab entry is valid ? | 22:42 |

| DavidCanarias | Does anybody know what UNKNOWN CMD means when you connect to a chat line? I am having problems.... | 22:43 |
| wos | can anyone tell me why i have to powercycle my system, router and cable modem every time i want to f#*%ing change my OS? | 22:43 |
| === Ademan__ is now known as Ademan | ||
| Slart | m308: I think you can make cron log what it does.. have you checked the man page? | 22:43 |
| zsquareplusc | fus10nx: run it in a separate shell, i mean without the script and test.. and you're not doing this across the internet? | 22:43 |
| LjL | m308: you can check /var/log/syslog, it includes cron events (grep for CRON) | 22:43 |
| storrgie | i want to mount my multidisk array, /dev/md0, i want to add it to my fstab so it will be there whenever I start up. How can I do this? And can i do it so it doesnt act like the device is removable? | 22:43 |
| smil3y | Dominik2, yeah i know not everyone should use it anyway to each his own | 22:43 |
| wos | sorry i have anger management issues :p | 22:43 |
| _ykram | wos cos you havent worked out you can run 2 os at the same time | 22:43 |
| Slart | wos: probably because your router hands out ip's according to MAC addresses.. and those can change when you change OS.. | 22:43 |
| wos | oh! | 22:44 |
| BoomShaka | honestly... can someone point me in the right direction in resolving the missing titlebar bug using compiz? it ONLY happens to firefox.. seriously pissing me off now | 22:44 |
| zsquareplusc | wos: dont change SO then use ubuntu all day long! ;-) | 22:44 |
| DIL | ugarit: http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/wiki/index.php/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch26_:_Linux_Software_RAID | 22:44 |
| wos | _ykram: how can you do that? | 22:44 |
| Slart | wos: could be something else too | 22:44 |
| n8tuser | storrgie-> are you running lvm with it? | 22:44 |
| _ykram | wos probably youtube for vmware will give you a easy way in | 22:45 |
| Slart | BoomShaka: I think the application responsible for drawing borders and such is called a decorator.. you can try restarting it | 22:45 |
| storrgie | n8tuser: no i am not, its just one big partition... actually i guess i dont understand what lvm is | 22:45 |
| _ykram | it really is easy | 22:45 |
| zsquareplusc | wos: are you getting the IP directly from the ISP or from your own router (NAT)? | 22:45 |
| Dominik2 | smil3y: just the economics of it: Linux = free, Windows = 100 bucks for licence, 300 for MS Office (with all the extras, not just word) = 400 bucks for office only | 22:45 |
| damian__ | is 8.10 as stable as 8.04? | 22:45 |
| wos | zsquareplusc: from my router | 22:45 |
| _ykram | and i must say i havent noticed any loss in cpu on a 2.8g pent running 3 os | 22:45 |
| ActionParsnip | damian__: it is here, some have had horror stories | 22:45 |
| BoomShaka | Slart: ye, i restarted X. (ctrl alt backspace) but had no luck. | 22:45 |
| blobX | Slart, still cant find that applet ..can you please be more specific ? | 22:45 |
| m308 | LjL: I am on shared hosting, turns out the system is centos | 22:46 |
| n8tuser | storrgie-> when you say multi-disk , what did you do to make it looks like a huge single partition? | 22:46 |
| ActionParsnip | _ykram: are the other OSes guest OSes running simultaneously? | 22:46 |
| zsquareplusc | wos: and you need to reset the cable modem too? hm.. ( some cable providers remeber the MACs that connect, but the MAC of your router hsould not change..) | 22:46 |
| LjL | m308: well, then we can't help you here... although it's pretty likely that what i said is valid for centos too | 22:46 |
| storrgie | n8tuser: i created an array with mdadm, used gparted to make the whole array into a ext3 partition | 22:46 |
| damian__ | actionparsnip: it's that bad? | 22:46 |
| _ykram | running simultaneously yes , you can run them full screen too | 22:46 |
| m308 | LjL: I tried, and got not found | 22:46 |
| Dominik2 | on another note: my swap partition turns off after every restart | 22:47 |
| Slart | blobX: sure, I right click on my gnome panel, select "+Add to panel", then I click on "CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor", click on the button "+Add" and then close.. | 22:47 |
| _ykram | or one os on one monitor the other os on the next monitor and so on | 22:47 |
| _ykram | all on the one cpu | 22:47 |
| wos | zsquareplusc: well it only happens every time i install a new operating system, but every computer on the network goes down | 22:47 |
| ActionParsnip | damian__: its really individual, I think its find but ALL my hardware is super linux friendly on purpose | 22:47 |
| ActionParsnip | _ykram: i see, nice | 22:47 |
| BoomShaka | Slart: F11 seems to have fixed it FYI | 22:47 |
| n8tuser | storrgie-> i have not used mdadm yet, so it will take me a few to figure how that thing works | 22:47 |
| Ferrous | hello there : ) | 22:48 |
| Slart | BoomShaka: ah.. full screen mode in firefox.. should have figured that one out | 22:48 |
| damian__ | well i got ubuntu running great on my sons laptop, but the wireless card is making me think twice. | 22:48 |

| blobX | Slart awesome, thanks..but this is only monitoring programs right ? | 22:50 |
| n8tuser | storrgie-> i can not pm nor receive a pm, besides being in the main channel, we all can learn together | 22:50 |

| mcquaid | i need the latest libmtp for my mp3 player. i grabbed a deb for deb experimental taht has the latest. installed it and fixed all the configs it now detects my player but seg faults | 22:50 |
| Ferrous | thank you, ActionParsnip | 22:50 |
| joaopinto | Ferrous, I believe some atheros models require the ath5k driver which is provided by the linux backports package | 22:50 |
| Commie_Cary | can ubuntu use ext4?\ | 22:50 |
| Ferrous | ah | 22:50 |

| joaopinto | mcquaid, you can't just mix debs from different systems | 22:51 |
| mcquaid | so i thought i better compile from soruce. | 22:51 |
| mcquaid | i know | 22:51 |
| ActionParsnip | mcquaid: what was the name of the deb you installed? | 22:51 |
| Ferrous | i'm just now starting to use ubuntu.. how do i get to the command line? heh. | 22:51 |
| Slart | blobX: when you've added that CPU frequencey scaling thingy you can right click on it to select which governor you want to use | 22:51 |
| Slart | !terminal | Ferrous | 22:51 |

| damian__ | im afraid i got the it dpends part of the deal, its a Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter , i tryed ndiswrapper, madwifi, but the drivers still remain -not - in use- | 22:52 |
| LjL | bb-X: the problem is that this channel is busy and confused enough when people restricted themselves to English, no need to add other languages to the mix. | 22:52 |
| mcquaid | i compiled libmtp and copied libmtp.o over to /usr/lib as libmtp.so.7.1.0 | 22:52 |
| blobX | Slart, I see..I'm looking in preferances on that one and I see nothing that can allows me to change | 22:52 |

| joaopinto | mcquaid, an .so file is not an .o | 22:52 |
| damian__ | shoulda checked before deleting the os, lol | 22:52 |
| mcquaid | so what i'm asking is did i compile the library wrong | 22:52 |
| _ykram | wos there is a windows channel | 22:52 |

| joaopinto | look into debian/rules, how the current package is compiled | 22:55 |
| mcquaid | ActionParsnip, i don't want ubuntu's one. I need libmtp0.3.3 | 22:55 |

| erUSUL | Ferrous: what editor ? nano? | 22:56 |
| jim_p | Ferrous: with vim or nano? | 22:56 |
| Ferrous | i'm good, sorry. | 22:56 |
| LjL | Ferrous, "terminal" is not an editor | 22:56 |

| Ferrous | good! haha. | 22:56 |
| Slart | blobX: well.. I'm not entirely convinced.. but I've been wrong before =) | 22:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Ferrous: what command did you use to edit the file | 22:56 |
| zsquareplusc | jim_p: you know some things about this topic? ive already set up dhcp and tftp and the client get the pxegrub. but pxegrub doesnt run correctly. i had to compile it myself, so it may be misconfigured | 22:56 |
| Ferrous | sudo vi /etc/modeprobe.d/blacklist | 22:56 |
| m1nds1llus1on | jim_p: Heres a problem for you to solve before bed.... Make bubble sort run in O( log n). MUAHAHAHA YOU'LL NEVER SLEEP! | 22:56 |

| dsmith_ | tell that to nano | 22:57 |

| dsmith_ | :P | 22:57 |
| blobX | Slart, not saying that you are, its just I cant adjust it..will take a photo and show ya | 22:57 |
| mcquaid | i see that at the end, but my player is only supported in 0.3.3. that guy probably got lucky cause he just need an entry for his player, and when he compiled latest source he got them, and then reverted to ubuntu's lib | 22:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Ferrous: ive not used vi, im good with nano | 22:57 |
| mcquaid | but that won't work here | 22:57 |
| Slart | zapconquest: try writing !nvidia in the channel and see if the bot has anything wise to say about it | 22:57 |
| zapconquest | I tried | 22:57 |
| Slart | blobX: I believe you.. no worries =) | 22:57 |

| LjL | dsmith_: nano is an editor *for* the terminal. so is vi, so are countless others. *the terminal* is not an editor, and you can't ask how to save or undo stuff in it, because there is no defined way to. | 22:57 |
| mcquaid | it makes me think i didn't pass something when compiling the lib | 22:57 |

| deardeath1 | Is there anybody around good with display matters on 8.10? I have Nvidia Geforce, though my current resolution is 600 * 480.. | 23:00 |
| digitalice | hello again! | 23:00 |
| m_tadeu | hi everyone....how can I know which app is taking my bandwidth? | 23:00 |
| jim_p | zsquareplusc: cant you boot from network though grub? | 23:00 |
| digitalice | still with problems to install ubuntu | 23:00 |
| digitalice | now | 23:00 |
| LjL | Ferrous: in vi, i don't know. in nano, you just use your arrow keys to move around, and hit keys, just like with any GUI editor (notepad, etc). at the bottom of the screen, you can see a list of commands (save, exit, etc) that you can use. ctrl+x saves and exits. | 23:00 |
| erUSUL | digitalice: try installing and using nvidia-settings | 23:00 |
| joaopinto | m_tadeu, install iptraf | 23:00 |
| digitalice | i tryed the alternative CD | 23:00 |

| NekroJakub | Is there any faster way to switch between Ubuntu and Windows in dualboot other than rebooting? | 23:01 |
| Ferrous | okay, thanks LjL | 23:01 |
| digitalice | i tryed usin alternative CD | 23:01 |
| digitalice | and it hangs | 23:01 |
| Milosz | NekroJakub, vmware? | 23:01 |
| Milosz | VirtualBox? | 23:01 |
| zapconquest | deardeath1: try renaming your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to something else, and restart X, to see if ubuntu can detect it correctly | 23:01 |
| erUSUL | NekroJakub: no | 23:01 |
| GodfatherofEire | Anybody know why OO.o 3 isnt in the repos yet? | 23:01 |
| digitalice | when install the software | 23:01 |
| djh816 | ActionParsnip, yea, i've gone there and the macbook pro one. they all list dual or tripple boot solutuions. i just want linux on it | 23:01 |
| joaopinto | NekroJakub, no, unless you move your windows install to a virtualization, which will not be good for gaming :P | 23:01 |
| Dominik2 | the file properties of my drive it claims to have 300 megs of stuff on it, but also claims that 700 megs are in use (this is a usb jump drive) | 23:01 |
| m1nds1llus1on | LjL For vi, you need to hit 'i' to enter insert (or edit) mode. Esc will then take out out of insert mode and :wq will write and quit | 23:01 |
| NekroJakub | joapinto, erUSUL, Milosz: Thanks for the response, too bad. | 23:01 |
| LjL | GodfatherofEire: there's no "yet". what's in the repos doesn't change, except for security patches and fixes to serious bugs. | 23:02 |
| scientes | how do i install catpages so i can actually search man pages | 23:02 |
| ActionParsnip | djh816: thats all i got, i think yu need mac to boot stuff. not sure | 23:02 |
| deardeath1 | ok brb | 23:02 |
| erUSUL | GodfatherofEire: it didn't make into the release and wont be aviable except perhaps in backports | 23:02 |
| NekroJakub | joapinto gets bonus points for guessing right off the bat what I meant. xD | 23:02 |
| zsquareplusc | jim_p: yes. i'm trying to set up network boot of the ubuntu live CD. appently it supports getting the files from NFS. then you need a DHCP where you can set boot options so that clients know where to get the bootloader. in this case it shoud be pxegrub | 23:02 |
| digitalice | erUSUL: ehh? nvidia? why? | 23:02 |
| erUSUL | |backports | GodfatherofEire | 23:02 |
| erUSUL | !backports | GodfatherofEire | 23:02 |
| ubottu | GodfatherofEire: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 23:02 |
| Ferrous | ergh | 23:02 |
| GodfatherofEire | Thanks erUSUL | 23:02 |
| m_tadeu | joaopinto: thanks | 23:02 |
| Ferrous | it wont start terminal | 23:02 |
| joaopinto | scientes, to search on manpages, use: apropos key | 23:02 |
| jim_p | zsquareplusc: let me think then | 23:02 |
| erUSUL | digitalice: sorry was not for you | 23:02 |
| digitalice | ok | 23:02 |
| zsquareplusc | jim_p: the sad thing is. i've dont that with knoppix a few years ago. i just need to solve that pxegrub problem :/ | 23:03 |
| scientes | whats that joaopinto apropos? | 23:03 |
| digitalice | hey | 23:03 |
| zsquareplusc | i have done that, i mean | 23:03 |
| joaopinto | scientes, man apropos | 23:03 |
| djh816 | ActionParsnip, the thing i don't get is that you can do windows only installs but it seems like mac's efi bootloader doesnt recognize linx as a bootable volume. and the refit bootloader needs to be installed on a readable file system | 23:03 |
| antoranz | Hi, guys! | 23:03 |
| digitalice | did someone had the same problems i had ... intallation hangs? | 23:03 |
| antoranz | Look.... I updated from hardy to intrepid... and it's perfect | 23:03 |
| antoranz | except for a small detail | 23:03 |
| digitalice | im usin 32bit version | 23:03 |
| Ferrous | Terminal will not start. It had trouble exiting the first time... | 23:03 |
| antoranz | when the box is booting, I have to press "alt" for a while | 23:03 |
| ActionParsnip | djh816: im gonna go with "mac garbage" ;) | 23:03 |
| jim_p | zsquareplusc: can i pm you a page? | 23:04 |
| antoranz | otherwise, it wouldn't boot | 23:04 |
| digitalice | but i got a AMD64 2X | 23:04 |
| antoranz | any idea wha?t I should do? a kernel option | 23:04 |
| gwennn | godfatheroEire:I have Ooo3 http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu | 23:04 |
| ActionParsnip | djh816: apparently gentoo likes mac but can be a long install | 23:04 |
| zsquareplusc | jim_p: sure | 23:04 |
| joaopinto | antoranz, remove the quite and splahs options from grub, to check for any relevant message | 23:04 |
| ActionParsnip | digitalice: thats fine, you can run 32bit os on 64bit cpu | 23:04 |
| djh816 | ActionParsnip, i wonder if theres a way that I can make a tiny fat32 partition with just grub on it to boot the ubuntu install. are there any tutorials that describe how to do that? | 23:05 |
| djh816 | ActionParsnip, or just the partition config? | 23:05 |
| ActionParsnip | djh816: yeah sounds like an idea | 23:05 |

| deardeath | back again, I did what that person suggested and renamed xorg.conf then restarted X | 23:06 |

| fus10nx | so I've got it working for the most part | 23:06 |
| dekkong | Hello guys! is there any program for ubuntu to check defragmented files? | 23:06 |
| fus10nx | when i go to send the command: echo pause | nc 192.168.2.101 44444 ; echo pause | nc 192.168.2.102 44444 | 23:06 |
| fus10nx | it only sends it to the first one then won't process the next one, any idea? | 23:06 |
| antoranz | joaopinto: actions with apt-get? | 23:06 |
| djh816 | ActionParsnip, thanks for the info. will take a look. | 23:06 |
| erUSUL | deardeath: try installing and using nvidia-settings | 23:06 |
| qbmaniac | you mean,, fragmented files | 23:06 |
| fus10nx | so it un-puases on 1 but not the other...but if i alternate IP address' then it does the first one and not the 2nd and vice versa if that makes sense | 23:06 |
| m_tadeu | anyway, iptraf doesn't give me the pid or the app name....how can I know that? | 23:07 |
| antoranz | cause I tried booting wiithout splash, and it made no difference.... I still had to press keys so that the box would boot | 23:07 |
| deardeath | erUSUL: apt-get would work for that? | 23:07 |
| Ferrous | restarting so terminal might work | 23:07 |

| zapconquest | how do I write a bug report for hardware drivers manager | 23:08 |

| joaopinto | antoranz, you remove the splahs and quite options from the kernel lines | 23:08 |

| antoranz | Buy! | 23:09 |
| deardeath | erUSUL: it already has Nvidia x server settings under System ->Administration | 23:09 |
| blobX | Slart nope ..just cant adjust ...no need if it stays at 2600Mhz | 23:10 |
| erUSUL | deardeath: and does not work? to change to higher resolution ? | 23:10 |
| blobX | Slart, but not sure if it will stay | 23:10 |
| m1nds1llus1on | I've got a random question.... does anyone in here have a System76 laptop? | 23:10 |
| deardeath | erUSUL: I just checked it and it says ; "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server." | 23:10 |

| NekroJakub | linxuz3r: I say yes, 8.10 has great hardware support right of the bat... Still, ActionParsnip has a damn good point. | 23:12 |
| Slart | dekkong: nothing that works.. defragmentation isn't really a problem with linux file system since it writes files differently than windows does.. just keep a healthy 10% of the drive free and you should be fine | 23:12 |
| NekroJakub | !hibernation | 23:12 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about hibernation | 23:12 |

| linxuz3r | what is new with 8.10? | 23:12 |
| Slart | dekkong: ah.. for ntfs.. nope.. I don't think there is a ntfs defragmentor for linux | 23:12 |

| dekkong | Slart: are you here? | 23:17 |
| ganymede | ActionParsnip, i tried to install vuze and it's pulling in a lot of gnome libs. previously, i had azureus installed with NO gnome libs | 23:17 |

| ActionParsnip | ganymede: i thought you were running kde and were not wanting gnome libs installed, then you talked about azureus which is java based etc etc | 23:18 |

| ganymede | joaopinto, i'm pretty sure i had a bunch of gconf2 apps previously, before vuze wanted to pull in gnome-keyring and stuff like that | 23:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Killer--Tux: you can also mount them with smbmount | 23:22 |

| ganymede | joaopinto, thanks | 23:25 |
| joaopinto | ganymede, np :) | 23:25 |
| blobX | erUSUL, frequency should be within 1000 MHz and 2.60 GHz. The governor "ondemand" may decide which spe ed to usewithin this range. | 23:26 |
| zapconquest | Slart: it updated 44 packages | 23:26 |
| ganymede | joaopinto, is there a conf file where i can disable it globally, in case i forget to pass the option to disable recommends? | 23:26 |
| IAMDANIAM | Ubuntu noob here.. any reason i cant watch a mp4 and listen to a mp3 at the same time?? | 23:26 |
| erUSUL | blobX: that0's the one i use and it works fine when there is a cpu intensive task the cpu scales up and in normal use it is at lowest freq | 23:26 |
| Ferrous | okay. you told me to not use vi, but something else in "sudo vi /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist" | 23:27 |
| Ferrous | It says to append blacklist ath_pci then it has another line that says blacklist ath_hal | 23:27 |
| Ferrous | does this mean i have to turn ath_pci to ath_hal? | 23:27 |
| erUSUL | blobX: no need for any applet or something it "Just Works (tm)" | 23:27 |
| blobX | erUSUL, so this is normal ? | 23:27 |
| ganymede | adac, wireshark maybe | 23:27 |
| seronis | ok. after a fullscreen program closes and your desktop resolution is unusably low, now do you restore it back to how it should look ? | 23:27 |
| SiLeNt_SiM | Have a problem --- X won't startup by itself, gives me some splash drawing error using XFCE. | 23:27 |
| erUSUL | blobX: if it is not the behavior you want you can chenge the governor | 23:27 |
| seronis | !resolution | 23:28 |
| ubottu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 23:28 |
| fosco_ | seronis: system - preferences - screen resolution | 23:28 |
| Slart | zapconquest: well.. I have no idea why that would happen, sorry | 23:28 |
| joaopinto | ganymede, create a file on /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ with: APT::Install-Recommends "false"; | 23:28 |
| erUSUL | blobX: there is one that keeps the cpu at max speed for example (performance) | 23:28 |
| zapconquest | Slart: alright. thanks for your help | 23:28 |
| blobX | erUSUL, since this is desktop machine I would like to use max power right ? | 23:28 |
| erUSUL | blobX: but i do not see th point of wasting power like that | 23:28 |
| seronis | fosco_ not what i wanted. i wanted to restore current settings, not manually rechoose. the faq i was referred to works though | 23:28 |
| adac | ganymede: Yeah I tried that...but I do not know what excatly tells me in wireshark if a package is encrpyted or not. Do you probably know? | 23:29 |
| superfly__ | anybody know of a good video editing program for ubuntu? | 23:29 |

| fosco_ | IAMDANIAM: make sure all your sound programs use the same audio daemon | 23:29 |
| fosco_ | usually alsa or pulseaudio | 23:29 |
| NekroJakub | When I hibernate my b0xx0rIMEAN my PC all I see is a black screen with a white command-line-like line and my box- PC doesn't shutdown. Wth? | 23:29 |
| joaopinto | ganymede, this settings are for apt-get only, I don't know if aptitude/synaptic will honor this setting | 23:29 |
| blobX | erUSUL, I just tried this with gimp and it relly does buff up CPU when GIMP is in use | 23:29 |
| blobX | erUSUL, awesome | 23:29 |
| dios_mio | SiLeNt_SiM, exactly my problem that drawing error splashing screen before xdm login screen.. I also head redrawing problems after logging in too, but I fixed that by setting a environment variable, as spoken in here: http://slackware.osuosl.org/slackware-current/CHANGES_AND_HINTS.TXT .. but ths spalsh screen before the xdm is still there | 23:29 |
| superfly__ | anybody know of a good video editing program for ubuntu? | 23:30 |
| erUSUL | blobX: XD | 23:30 |
| fosco_ | superfly__: there are many, kino, lives, cinelerra, avidemux... | 23:30 |
| chamenoel | Superfly, I too have been wondering that recently | 23:30 |
| david_ | Is anybody having problems with Hotmail like I am........ | 23:30 |
| IAMDANIAM | fosco_: i have em all set to pulseaudio.. i can get video but no sound when playing a mp3 in VLC or rythmbox | 23:30 |
| blobX | erUSUL, I didnt know that linux could do this..is this new ? | 23:31 |
| chamenoel | So which is the best in your opinion, fosco? | 23:31 |
| erUSUL | blobX: no; afaik it has been there for quite some time | 23:31 |

| ActionParsnip | superfly__: try it, see if yu like it, yu can always remove it | 23:32 |
| erUSUL | !best | kansascanuck | 23:32 |
| ubottu | kansascanuck: 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. | 23:32 |

| superfly__ | ok | 23:32 |
| Slart | kansascanuck: by all means.. try the alternatives too.. it's always best to make an educated choice | 23:32 |
| erUSUL | blobX: glad you like it XD | 23:32 |
| kansascanuck | joaopinto: what do you mean by "what is my problem"? | 23:32 |
| millertime_018 | joaopinto: can you help me? | 23:33 |

| idea4gud | i got eclipse 3.4 and it was untarred on the desktop | 23:33 |
| joaopinto | millertime_018, I am not experienced with sound troubleshooting, sorry | 23:33 |
| Ferrous | oh boy. Sorry, how do i edit with terminal or use something else to edit... you said to use something instead of sudo vi /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 23:33 |
| kansascanuck | Joaopinto: Has the 8.10 shutdown issue been taken care of? | 23:34 |
| samako93 | Whabo, using the fglrx driver? | 23:34 |
| erUSUL | !eclipse | idea4gud | 23:34 |
| joaopinto | idea4gud, eclipse is in the repositories, do you really need thar version ? | 23:34 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about eclipse | 23:34 |
| HeX_Vulture | anyone want to play odamex with me? | 23:34 |
| chamenoel | Anyone had problems with MIDI in Ubuntu? I got it working on mine last night | 23:34 |
| jrib | Ferrous: just do: gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 23:34 |
| Slart | Ferrous: try "nano" for editing in console.. it's a bit friendlier than vi | 23:34 |
| idea4gud | yes | 23:34 |
| HeX_Vulture | its a game that works on ubuntu! | 23:34 |
| IAMDANIAM | fosco_: i have em all set to pulseaudio.. i can get video but no sound when playing a mp3 in VLC or rythmbox | 23:34 |
| Ferrous | okay, jrib, i will try | 23:34 |
| idea4gud | because 3.2 doesnt have the all ther features | 23:34 |
| Ferrous | thanks | 23:34 |
| Catoptromancy | HeX_Vulture, odamex is awesome | 23:34 |
| joaopinto | kansan, what shutdown issue ? The only shutdown issue I am aware of was during beta | 23:34 |
| Whabo | Samako93 no whats that? i never downloaded any drivers for my card | 23:34 |
| fosco_ | IAMDANIAM: vlc uses its own config, make suere it is using pulse too | 23:34 |
| joaopinto | ops, was for kansascanuck | 23:34 |
| n8tuser2 | chamenoel--> what did you do to make your midi work? | 23:34 |
| Slart | IAMDANIAM: I think there's even a pulseaudio plugin for vlc you can install | 23:35 |
| idea4gud | #eclipse didnt get a resp that could help me | 23:35 |
| erUSUL | !midi | 23:35 |
| ubottu | Trouble playing MIDI files? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MidiSoftwareSynthesisHowTo | 23:35 |
| Catoptromancy | HeX_Vulture, even has that gpl iwad | 23:35 |
| joaopinto | idea4gud, and you need a specific feature that is not available on 3.2 ? | 23:35 |
| IAMDANIAM | fosco_: pulse audio is selected in vlc | 23:35 |
| erUSUL | Slart: IAMDANIAM indeed there is. it is a separate package | 23:35 |
| idea4gud | ok i had 3.2 from repo | 23:35 |
| chamenoel | n8tuser2, I have written up the steps here: http://www.no37.net/index.php?n=Know.Ubuntu-GettingSoftwareMIDIWorking | 23:35 |
| kansascanuck | joaopinto: I tried to install the 8.10 final release and it still won't shutdown on my machine. Let me take that back. It will but it just takes about 5 minutes or so. I had to move back to 8.04.1 | 23:35 |
| idea4gud | but that got screwed | 23:35 |
| david_ | Can anyone please tell me how to unzip a tar file so that I can update Mozilla Firefox..... Thanks..... | 23:35 |
| samako93 | hmm Whabo, nevermind lol, fglrx doesnt support that card | 23:36 |
| millertime_018 | alsa mixer isn't working! | 23:36 |
| Slart | david_: there is an untar command I think | 23:36 |
| joaopinto | kansascanuck, just grab a live cd and test it | 23:36 |
| idea4gud | i got 3.4 then and copied the .eclipse on uisr/bin | 23:36 |
| IAMDANIAM | so i need to install this package to enable audio in other programs while watching a movie?? | 23:36 |
| n8tuser2 | chamenoel--> cool, thanks for creating a tutorial | 23:36 |
| Slart | david_: and unzip is available too | 23:36 |
| erUSUL | david_: right click on it. Choose Extract here | 23:36 |
| Whabo | samoko oh thx anyway | 23:36 |
| jrib | david_: you don't unzip tar files. You also don't unzip tar files to update firefox. Update manager automatically gives you updates for your software including firefox | 23:36 |
| Slart | IAMDANIAM: yes | 23:36 |
| samako93 | i'll still take a quick look around | 23:36 |
| erUSUL | david_: no that hard; was it? | 23:36 |
| david_ | Slart I have the file in my downloads, but don't know what to do next.... | 23:36 |
| IAMDANIAM | sorry im a noob where do i find it?? | 23:36 |
| Whabo | help why is ubuntu slow on my compaq presario 2170US. i know its the graphics card, it uses ATI radeon 340m (i think). but the system is running choppy i had the same problem when i had ubuntu 7.10 on it, didnt bother to fix it and moved on to pclinuxos (which is still choppy but less). ANY one can help me with this? I LOVE UBUNTU, but i need it to work right | 23:36 |
| joaopinto | idea4gud, eclipse is a complex software, I don't think you will help get help here with a version which is not on the repositories, because most people will use the one from the repos | 23:36 |
| Slart | david_: do what erUSUL suggested.. | 23:37 |
| chamenoel | Not quite a tutorial yet, more a few notes to get myself going if my laptop dies, but it should help anyone with a similar setup, I think | 23:37 |
| kansascanuck | Joaopinto: If it works, would you suggest that I upgrade from the update manager or should I low level the drive and start fresh. | 23:37 |
| david_ | erUSUL ... THKS | 23:37 |
| dios_mio | joaopinto, joao pinto was a great player :P | 23:37 |
| erUSUL | Whabo: system>Admin>Hardware drivers | 23:37 |
| joaopinto | kansan, the recommended procedure is to upgrade | 23:37 |
| joaopinto | ops, was kansascanuck | 23:37 |
| idea4gud | ok thanks | 23:37 |
| erUSUL | david_: but jrib is right you should wait for the ubuntu upgrade | 23:37 |
| Ferrous | okay i've added what i want to the text | 23:37 |
| Ferrous | how do i save what i've added into terminal? >_< | 23:38 |
| jrib | !who | Ferrous, you need to provide context and | 23:38 |
| ubottu | Ferrous, you need to provide context and: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 23:38 |
| david_ | jrib Can you help me to update Firefox somehow as I have tried everthing and nothing works. If I use the update manager what do I need to do? | 23:38 |
| jrib | david_: what version of ubuntu? | 23:38 |
| Ferrous | i have the option to exit, the option to justify, the option to write out... | 23:38 |
| chamenoel | !tab test | 23:38 |
| Ferrous | grr. | 23:38 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about tab test | 23:38 |
| ganymede | is there a way i can make grep print all of its stdin and highlight matches (instead of only printing matching lines and hilighting matches), e.g. print non-matching lines also | 23:38 |
| david_ | Hardy | 23:38 |
| joaopinto | Ferrous, you dont "add" things to terminal, you execute tasks there | 23:38 |
| kansascanuck | Joaopinto: The other question I have with the upgrade was that when I did the upgrade it would not pick up the Nvidia card my Dell 1420 Inspiron was using. Any suggestions on how to make sure it does? | 23:38 |
| david_ | jrib I have Hardy | 23:38 |
| vae345 | hey guys, i'm using a different linux distro, is there somehow i can download ubuntu iso and install without burning or anything str8 from hard drive? | 23:38 |
| jrib | david_: pastebin the output of the command: apt-cache policy firefox | 23:39 |
| joaopinto | kansan, check the release notes, there are some notes regarding some models, but again, test with the livecd first | 23:39 |
| vae345 | motherbaord is old so doesnt support usb boot and no dvd/cd rom drive | 23:39 |

| Slart | !install | vae345, look here.. but I don't think you can | 23:39 |
| david_ | jrib do I copy the apt-cache policy firefox in terminal and enter | 23:39 |

| joaopinto | Wavesonics, better ask on the svn support channel (assuming there is one) | 23:41 |
| david_ | jrib done that and not quite sure what the answer was? | 23:41 |
| Wavesonics | ok, thanks | 23:41 |

| scientes1 | HELP | 23:42 |

| Slart | m1ndctrl: hmm.. sounds like linux doesn't really like your computer.. you've tried with noapci or noapic? | 23:43 |
| m1nds1llus1on | NekroJakub: My laptop does the exact same thing during hibernation. Sometimes it takes a couple minutes to finish hibernating. How long have you waited for? | 23:44 |
| NekroJakub | m1nds1llus1on: A minute or so... But damnit, shutdown is faster then >_> | 23:44 |
| m1ndctrl | Slart: yea - starting to think it might not be linux friendly as well... blows.. i just bought all new hardware :( | 23:44 |
| m1nds1llus1on | NekroJakub: Yup, honestly, shutdown and boot are sometimes faster in Ubuntu. | 23:44 |
| Prez00 | where should wallpapers be stored in Ubuntu? specific dir they come in? | 23:44 |

| yoursfaithfully | how do I enable extra compiz effects in Ubuntu? | 23:45 |
| m1nds1llus1on | NekroJakub: It all depends on if you're working on something and you don't want to close it. | 23:45 |
| Slart | !ccsm | yoursfaithfully | 23:45 |
| ubottu | yoursfaithfully: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion | 23:45 |
| NekroJakub | m1nds1llus1on: Guess I'll stick with shutdown then, programs start so fast it doesn't really make a difference, heh. | 23:45 |
| yoursfaithfully | Slart: Thanks! | 23:45 |

| L3Tum | Hi everyone. Is there a way to somehow run an xml file in the terminal or some other program with a printout so that I can find where it is having a problem? I've been staring at this screen for the last 3 hours | 23:46 |
| Anveo | Can anyone tell me why the NetworkManager says my wireless is disabled, even though I have an ath0/wifi0 device in ifconfig? | 23:46 |
| fosco_ | scientes: try metacity --replace | 23:46 |
| Ferrous | Okay, so i've entered the text i need to append the blacklist...list with in the terminal, i've pressed the control button and x to tell it to exit, it asked me if i wanted to save, i pressed 'y' it told me "File name to write: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist" then gave me a list of things. I want to use the option that says "M-A Append" I added "M-A" to the end of the little line "file name to write: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist" and pressed enter. I | 23:46 |
| erUSUL | GodfatherofEire: the kernel parameter line in menu.lst still has the "splash" option ?? | 23:46 |
| joaopinto | L3Tum, do you have a syntax error on a xml file ? | 23:46 |
| triggerhapp | Intel Drivers (Intrepid) are causing Runescape high detail to crash (Official Java/OpenGL/FireFox) Anyone else know about this? | 23:46 |
| erUSUL | L3Tum: xml is textual info you can not "run" it | 23:46 |
| L3Tum | yes, but I can't find it | 23:46 |
| ActionParsnip | scientes1: export XAUTHORITY=/home/<user>/.Xauthority | 23:46 |
| GodfatherofEire | Possibly, erUSUL, I'll check, you have the dir for the file? | 23:46 |
| erUSUL | L3Tum: there may be some command line syntax/scheme checker | 23:47 |
| joaopinto | L3Tum, there are online tools to check for that, or you can use xml copy editor, a nice app to edit xml files | 23:47 |
| erUSUL | GodfatherofEire: /boot/grub/menu.lst | 23:47 |
| Ferrous | >_< | 23:47 |
| L3Tum | joaopinto: thanks | 23:47 |
| GodfatherofEire | I'll admit though erUSUL, I installed splashy, then removed it as it wouldnt work on shutdown. | 23:48 |

| Dr_willis | scientes, you want for example to launch a xterm, on the currently running X session. from the consolke.. In the past.. ive logged into the console, exported the DISPLAY variable, then disabled the xhost security (not a good idea) with 'xhost +localhost' then ran the app. | 23:51 |

| Ganandorf | hi guys i see that gimp 2.6.2 is released but i still have 2.4 how do i update it | 23:52 |
| Anveo | LogicalDash: It was working just fine, then I installed a package(something dell specific) and it stopped | 23:52 |
| erUSUL | Ganandorf: wich version of ubuntu? | 23:52 |
| lakeoftea | is there a command line program that will tell me who the owner of a certain file is? | 23:53 |
| Dr_willis | Ganandorf, wait for updates in the repos/backports. or use source. or look on the PPA repos for newer versions (unofficial/not supported) | 23:53 |
| LogicalDash | lakeoftea: ls -l | 23:53 |
| thatguyisjames | aveno: .. i would like to know the same, it is geting anoying everytime i boot to have to manuly get on my wireless network | 23:53 |
| Anveo | LogicalDash: I can still connect to AP's manually, but can't get the network manage to 'enable wireless' | 23:53 |
| joaopinto | Ganandorf, you build from source, or get from a 3rd party | 23:53 |

| LogicalDash | Anveo: It would probably help if you could find out precisely what package caused the problem | 23:53 |
| Ganandorf | erUSUL: 8.04 is the version | 23:53 |
| Dr_willis | FuLio, you mean create an ICON to launch xmms? | 23:53 |
| ActionParsnip | idea4gud: http://pastebin.ca/1258450 | 23:53 |
| FuLio | Dr_willis, yes | 23:53 |
| erUSUL | Ganandorf: maybe it is in backports but i dunno | 23:53 |
| erUSUL | !backports | Ganandorf | 23:53 |

| fosco_ | Ganandorf: Versión: 2.6.1-1ubuntu3 <-- in intrepid | 23:54 |
| joaopinto | Ganandorf, if is not on the backports, it's available on getdeb | 23:54 |
| Dr_willis | FuLio, there is a 'create launcher' menu item on the desktop menus.. or just drag any icon to the panel and edit the properties to launch whatever you want. | 23:54 |
| st3ph | ActionParsnip, are you about? | 23:54 |

| thedoctor | hi, I just got an apple wireless mouse and the scollball doesn't play nicely | 23:54 |
| Dr_willis | FuLio, you can drag/drop icons from the gnome menu to the panel. :) and edit those properties of that newly made launcher I mean to say. | 23:54 |
| joaopinto | Ganandorf, if you know how to build from source, should be ok | 23:55 |
| thedoctor | evtest shows nothing for scrolling, but moving around and clicking works | 23:55 |
