| nbeebo | wj32, nop, the sound that comes out of my speakers, aka speaker output goes into my microphone aka microphone input | 00:00 |
| laderius | Jack_Sparrow Negitive, did not work | 00:00 |
| rww | !screen | exodus_ms: still not sure what you mean, but maybe you want something like screen? | 00:00 |
| Paddy_EIRE | exodus_ms, wind the neck in we are just trying to help.. and you misunderstand | 00:00 |
| ubottu | exodus_ms: still not sure what you mean, but maybe you want something like screen?: screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen | 00:00 |
| exodus_ms | Paddy_EIRE: yes, I read the 'fine' manual | 00:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laderius, nvidia settings wont run | 00:01 |
| exodus_ms | rww: yes, I haven't been clear about what i mean. i will try to explain | 00:01 |
| Paddy_EIRE | exodus_ms, well it certainly does not seem like it.. | 00:01 |
| gogereaver | jack im calling it as a bad driver install | 00:01 |
| laderius | jack_sparrow: i typed sudo nvidia-settings as the second command | 00:01 |
| gogereaver | if thats not there | 00:01 |
| wj32 | nbeebo: ok then. so do you want to record whatever's going out of your speakers? | 00:01 |
| wj32 | nbeebo: try audacity - that should do it | 00:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laderius, I use the older driver on my systems -77 didnt work for me | 00:02 |
| laderius | jac_sparrow: and it says command not found, im using 8.04 | 00:02 |
| Kalisto | ok im going the apt-get install ubuntu desktop way. btw dont remove libx11-6 ;) when you try to downgrade to an older version. it will take the system with it :D | 00:02 |
| nbeebo | wj32, many games got "voice in-game" and etc that gets the voice from the microphone, instead of the voice i want the microphone to record/get the sound from the desktop, for example me playing music files | 00:02 |
| laderius | Jack_Sparrow: It all worked fine alittle while ago :P then i rebooted, how would i get new drivers? | 00:02 |
| gogereaver | nbeebo oh thats easy jst record your pcm | 00:03 |
| michelecs | Hi. When I insert a bluetooth dongle in my computer, Skype stops connecting and needed to be killed. Anyone has the same problem? | 00:03 |
| gogereaver | nbeebo no mic nedded | 00:03 |
| wj32 | nbeebo: that should be an option in the game | 00:03 |
| nbeebo | wj32, no there isnt.. | 00:03 |
| wj32 | nbeebo: if the game doesn't have the option, then... | 00:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laderius, system admin hardware drivers or restricted drivers isnt there | 00:03 |
| wj32 | nbeebo: you'll have to search for some audio routing program | 00:03 |
| nbeebo | gogereaver, wooot, where??? been looking for this for 1 week atleast | 00:03 |
| laderius | jack_sparrow: they are now gone, says im using no propierty drivers | 00:04 |
| gogereaver | nbeebo for recording device just slect wave or pcm | 00:04 |
| nbeebo | wj32, ive searched but havent tried routing | 00:04 |
| wj32 | nbeebo: i doubt you'll find one | 00:04 |
| mib_70r1ae | what is the repositary extension for mandriva like .deb or .repo | 00:04 |
| nbeebo | wj32, think so too .. thanks | 00:04 |
| exodus_ms | rww: I guess I was curious if there were a way to enhance the terminal without a GUI program. We are talking about shell emulators here which has nothing really to do with making the terminal useful rather replacing it with a program of choice | 00:04 |
| nbeebo | gogereaver, ok ill try | 00:04 |
| kitche | mib_70r1ae: ask mandriva | 00:04 |
| aprilhare | when I play dvds I prefer to use xine, however I want to configure it to play by default and my problem is that when it starts a DVD, the volume by default is mute. I don't know why; it should be 100% by default and it really is annoying. Can anyone suggest how to force it to default to 100%? I tried the command line option and it didn't do the trick. | 00:04 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laderius, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 00:05 |

| Jack_Sparrow | mib_70r1ae, THat is not a ubuntu suport question | 00:05 |
| rww | mib_70r1ae: non-Ubuntu questions don't belong in here, but... I believe Mandriva uses RPM, so the equivalent to .deb should be .rpm | 00:05 |
| laderius | jack_sparrow: Use kernal framebuffer device interface? yes or no | 00:06 |
| nbeebo | gogereaver, in the gnome volume control there is 2 options to change input source, line, mic (default), cd and front mic, what does line do? and how does cd work? | 00:06 |
| Vigo | No Seamonkey....ratso | 00:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laderius, no | 00:06 |
| rww | mib_70r1ae: you may want to ask in channel #mandriva on this server, though | 00:06 |
| gogereaver | nbeebo cd would capture any cd you played | 00:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laderius, are you running lcd or crt monitor | 00:06 |
| mib_70r1ae | rww, sorry i am just looking on how to install a program to let me load up my ubuntu cd from a USB drive | 00:06 |

| rww | exodus_ms: again, have you looked at "screen"? | 00:09 |
| jrib | mrwes: just ask a more specific question rather than a poll | 00:09 |
| bartel | how can i manually run the cron.daily?? | 00:09 |
| rww | exodus_ms: it supports split windows, detaching and reattaching, etc... | 00:09 |
| Paddy_EIRE | exodus_ms, hmm.. I dunno about that.. but I mean you could try a different WM like awesome or something... not exactly what you are looking for but not far away either | 00:09 |
| nbeebo | gogereaver, no options to change the soundcard thing.. someone gave me a screenshot of it i didnt have that option... dammit | 00:09 |
| laderius | jack_sparrow LCD, and i did that command its completed, the propierty drivers are still not listed | 00:09 |
| gogereaver | nbeebo change the sound capture from your mic to the soundcard itsself | 00:09 |
| yosuke | hi ! | 00:09 |
| gogereaver | nbeebo in the system menu | 00:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laderius, what did you select for driver | 00:10 |
| Vigo | The Seamonkey from Synaptic is 1.1.2 and last time I loaded it I could not figure out how to update it,,,should I try to find a mozilla chat or any here have a direction that I can take. | 00:10 |
| mrwes | Ok....how do I install jwm in ubuntu? and will any programs already installed work with it? | 00:10 |
| jrib | mrwes: use apt if it is in the repositories | 00:10 |
| laderius | jack_sparrow it did not ask let me retry | 00:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | mrwes, You just said it was in our repositories | 00:10 |
| sweetgum | Jack_sparrow: can you tell me how to set $DISPLAY to a new value? | 00:10 |
| Evil_Overlord | The update manager seems to have trouble. It kept refusing to install updates (16). One security update was "libgnutls26_2.4.1-1ubuntu0.1_i386.deb" I didn't find that, but I did find "...0.2_i386.deb", so I manually installed that, even though the web page advised using the older version available via software channels [which?]. Anyway, now update manager tells me I suddenly need 131 updates. Should I download and install them, | 00:10 |
| mrwes | wow... | 00:11 |
| nbeebo | gogereaver, oh the sound stuff there isnt the volume mixer.. let me see what i can do... | 00:11 |
| Paddy_EIRE | exodus_ms, You should clarify a little what you mean by "enhance" too.. as it is not specific to anything.. kinda vague | 00:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sweetgum, Please dont ask a specific person, just ask your question and wait. | 00:11 |
| yosuke | quit | 00:11 |
| sweetgum | can someone tell me how i can change the value of $DISPLAY? | 00:11 |
| rww | yosuke: try /quit | 00:11 |
| jrib | sweetgum: export DISPLAY=newvalue | 00:11 |
| Paddy_EIRE | !repeat | sweetgum | 00:11 |

| laderius | jack_sparrow are you talking about when i reconfigure xserver? | 00:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laderius, yes | 00:12 |
| Vigo | Evil_Overlord: I would think yes, since it was a system change, updated stuff may be wise. | 00:12 |
| Evil_Overlord | Vigo - yes to do all the updates, or try for the older file? | 00:12 |
| laderius | jack_sparrow it just gives me options for my keyboard | 00:12 |

| mas2_ | I just installed Ubuntu and used Synaptic to install VLC. But when I open file it plays for 1 second then closes itself. Why? | 00:13 |
| wj32 | nbeebo: get pulseaudio | 00:13 |
| Evil_Overlord | Any idea why update manager so frequently has trouble? What channels should I enable [?] | 00:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laderius, I need a break... ask in channel again.. sorry | 00:13 |
| exodus_ms | Paddy_EIRE: understood, basically I wanted the terminal to behave similar to irssi, (using split windows but without the need for a separate GUI app), Terminator and Screen both seem to provide what I'm looking for. | 00:13 |
| wj32 | nbeebo: pulseaudio control tray icon thingy | 00:13 |
| Vigo | Evil_Overlord: I would do the updates then use Synaptic to find the working one with the new settings | 00:13 |
| laderius | jack_sparrow np | 00:13 |
| nbeebo | wj32, how? | 00:13 |

| Flannel | NewtownGuy: To do what with apache? | 00:57 |
| IndyGunFreak | hmm. | 00:57 |
| NewtownGuy | flannel -- change it to port 8000 instead of 80 | 00:58 |

| Jack_Sparrow | MariachiAC, If you must experiment with other repos.. install a second ubuntu to do it | 01:00 |
| Flannel | ltl: No, apache2.conf isn't the place for changing that | 01:01 |
| laderius | can i copy from outside the terminal and paste into it? | 01:01 |
| NewtownGuy | flannel: it's in ports.conf, which is different than in fedora | 01:01 |
| ltl | NewtownGuy: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/httpd.html [this probably applies to intrepid] | 01:01 |
| rww | laderius: you should be able to. You'll have to use Shift-Ctrl-V instead of Ctrl-V, though. | 01:01 |
| laderius | rww thx | 01:02 |
| Flannel | NewtownGuy: Indeed. Ubuntu, being debian based, uses the debian methodology for config files; generally this means lots of smaller files that are specialized (and get included into the others). It tends to work out nicer for package management, if nothing else. | 01:02 |
| ltl | Flannel: yeah, i know. its a start. | 01:02 |

| Surkow | Hello | 01:04 |
| Flannel | NewtownGuy: Um, Well debian might have something like that, but apart from that, I think all of the howtos are program specific. help.ubuntu.com (and moreso help.ubuntu.com/community/) are good resources. As are the README.debian files (and actually, the config files themselves have copious comments) | 01:04 |
| Surkow | I have issues with an intel wireless card. It won't connect to my home network (WEP max 128bit encryption). The live cd version from 8.10 can easily connects to the network. Version 8.04.1 doesn't connect at all because it uses an older driver (e1000 instead of e1000e). Ten days ago was the last time I connected to the network and the hardware/wires/configuration is still the same. It might have been that I installed update | 01:04 |
| Vigo | BlackDalek: Try Add/Remove ? | 01:04 |

| Surkow | A backup from how it was before I installed those updates? | 01:06 |
| Flannel | NewtownGuy: the /etc/apache2/ part? | 01:06 |

| BlackDalek | rww, Vigo googleearth doesn't show up in add/remove... Is there a method by which I can locate all parts of the program and remove them manually? | 01:08 |

However whenever I try to install this package via 'sudo apt-get install libnfnetlink1' nothing happens. Am I giving the wrong command? Here is the link I got from the ubuntu page: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/libnfnetlink1 | 01:18 |
| Ward1983 | does anyone know if theres an option for gcc to NOT need seperate includes for headers allready included in other headers that are included? | 01:18 |
| Trenter | Sorry for re-post | 01:19 |
| jrib | Trenter: what do you mean "nothing happens"? Pastebin your terminal session | 01:19 |
| iShock | Can anyone help me set up a GE MiniCam Pro? It's a Microdia, and I can't find ANYTHING about it. | 01:19 |
| Trenter | It couldn't find the package | 01:20 |
| jrib | Trenter: Pastebin your terminal session | 01:20 |
| rww | Trenter: what version of Ubuntu are you using? | 01:20 |
| Trenter | 8.10 | 01:20 |
| Ward1983 | Trenter, sudo apt-get install libnflink0 is probably what you need | 01:21 |
| adam_ | hi | 01:21 |
| iShock | Can anyone help me set up a GE MiniCam Pro? I get the following problems from dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/100702/ | 01:21 |
| Ward1983 | Trenter, its probably a typo lol | 01:21 |
| rww | Trenter: Intrepid doesn't have that package. It has libnfnetlink0 and libnfnetlink-dev, but I'm not sure if they're compatible. | 01:21 |
| laderius | jrib im trying the upgrade to see if my devices will be native | 01:21 |
| jrib | Trenter: you probably want to search for intrepid packages then. Why are you using packages.ubuntu.com to search anyway? | 01:21 |
| Ward1983 | 0 / 1 are close together | 01:21 |
| jrib | laderius: ok | 01:21 |
| adam_ | i need help aneyone want to try to help? | 01:21 |
| rww | Trenter: libnfnetlink1 was only in Feisty. | 01:21 |
| rww | !anyone | adam_ | 01:21 |
| ubottu | adam_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 01:21 |
| xun_ | hello, I cannot get my scanner to work(brother DCP-7020 laser printer/scanner), I've donwnloaded sane, sane-utils, xsane & libsane-extras. can anyone help? | 01:21 |
| xun_ | i'm running ubuntu 8. | 01:22 |
| xun_ | 10 by the way | 01:22 |
| iShock | Can anyone help me set up a GE MiniCam Pro? I get the following problems from dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/100702/ | 01:22 |
| adam_ | Does aneyone know what to do when you cant change your sources.list for 5.04 i need to upgrade but it stops me it says im not owner | 01:23 |
| jrib | adam_: how are you trying? | 01:23 |
| zmax_ | Hi all. What's the default way to configure services in Ubuntu? | 01:23 |
| adam_ | im trying to edit it and add what it says | 01:23 |
| IndyGunFreak | adam_: you'r egonna have a very hard time upgrading 5.04.. i imagine a lot of repos are probably closed... i'd suggest backing up and clean installing. | 01:23 |
| iShock | Can anyone help me set up a GE MiniCam Pro? I get the following problems from dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/100702/ | 01:23 |
| adam_ | i have a 5.04 CD but i just installed this 4 days ago | 01:24 |
| IndyGunFreak | adam_: then cut your losses and download a version that is supported... | 01:24 |
| Flannel | adam_: If you were going to upgrade to a current version, you'd have to upgrade to 5.04 to 5.10, then from 5.10 to 6.06, then from 6.06 to 8.04 | 01:24 |
| jrib | adam_: then install a supported version. That will be much easier | 01:24 |

| ubottu | adam_ read that link and you'll see what i'm saying: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates for an Ubuntu release stop. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases | 01:24 |
| iShock | Woops .. Sorry. | 01:24 |
| FloodBot2 | iShock: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:24 |
| rww | IndyGunFreak: Support for Ubuntu 5.04 ended in October 2006. | 01:24 |
| rww | IndyGunFreak: sorry, wrong user. | 01:25 |
| jrib | iShock: please wait at least 10 minutes... | 01:25 |
| IndyGunFreak | rww: oh ok.lol, that was my point, it was well past eol | 01:25 |
| adam_ | Ok i think i aredy read this | 01:25 |
| iShock | jrib, 10 minutes? 10 minutes it won't exist any more .. | 01:25 |
| rww | adam_: Support for Ubuntu 5.04 ended in October 2006. The packages for it aren't even in the Ubuntu archives any more. You really, really, really want to consider getting an Intrepid or Hardy CD and reinstalling. | 01:25 |
| jrib | iShock: what won't exist anymore? | 01:25 |
| IndyGunFreak | adam_: well, we can't resurrect a distribution from the dead... you'll be far better off downloading a current version an dinstalling it. | 01:25 |
| Surkow|laptop | solved my wireless issue without a proper explanation | 01:25 |
| adam_ | Does it cost to download it? | 01:26 |
| Surkow|laptop | anyways, thanks for the suggestions | 01:26 |
| iShock | jrib, the question, too active in here .. | 01:26 |
| IndyGunFreak | adam_: only need a blank cd. | 01:26 |
| Flannel | adam_: Only your bandwidth | 01:26 |
| adam_ | where do i download it :D | 01:26 |
| rww | !download | adam_ | 01:26 |
| ubottu | adam_: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors - PLEASE use the !torrents to download Intrepid, and help keeping the servers' load low! | 01:26 |
| jrib | iShock: ok, well spamming your question just makes it more likely people ignore you and you get kicked. Wait a reasonable amount of time before repeating | 01:26 |
| xun_ | so anyone knows how to get the scanner to work under 8.10?? mine is brothers 7020 printer/scanner | 01:26 |
| iShock | jrib, I wait for it to leave the window. | 01:26 |
| Trenter | adam_: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download | 01:27 |
| adam_ | The onley reson im using ubuntu is my outher computer crashed and i had this cd for a few years | 01:27 |
| jrib | iShock: yes, I saw that. Thus why I am asking you to wait at least 10 minutes. | 01:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | how in the world did someone install a 5.04 cd 4 days ago?..lol | 01:27 |
| iShock | jrib, you don't want me to get an answer, that's your problem. | 01:27 |
| * IndyGunFreak bets it was some ubuntu book thats been on the shelf for 2yrs at a book store | 01:27 | |
| * jrib sighs | 01:27 | |
| adam_ | ive had it for ALONG time but i installed it 4 days ago | 01:27 |
| Ward1983 | does anyone know if theres an option for gcc to NOT need seperate includes for headers allready included in other headers that are included? | 01:27 |
| linxeh | heh | 01:27 |
| McShane | adam_, you're probably better off getting Damn Small Linux or something, if you want a quick-and-dirty temporary distro | 01:27 |
| rww | iShock: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/280657/comments/27 | 01:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | adam_: well, you'll thank us for teling you to go w/ a supported version. | 01:27 |
| adam_ | Yha thanks i was abought to go wack if i dident get adobe in | 01:28 |
| linxeh | adam_: you should try and download a new version, or you could go through the pain (and learning process) of upgrading it release by release :) | 01:28 |
| IndyGunFreak | linxeh: i'm not really sure if that woudl do much good, i have a feeling going from 5.04 to 5.10, would be ultimate phail | 01:28 |
| IndyGunFreak | to many closed repos, etc | 01:28 |
| linxeh | hmm, there is old-releases.ubuntu.com though | 01:29 |
| rww | Ward1983: ask in the GCC help channel; #gcc on irc.oftc.net. | 01:29 |
| exodus_ms | I have a large number of html files I converted to .txt files using html2text. When using 'cat index.txt | more' I can view the txt file perfectly, but when trying to view the txt with vi, the text is garbled and unreadable. Any suggestions? | 01:29 |
| linxeh | that works quite well | 01:29 |
| jrib | exodus_ms: weird. Try #vim? | 01:29 |
| linxeh | goes back to 4.10 anyway | 01:29 |
| Ward1983 | rww, aaaah i asked in #gcc here on freenode but no replonse, ill try that one thanx | 01:29 |
| adam_ | so all i do is download it put it on a CD shut down my computer and insert the cd while the computer comes on? | 01:29 |
| IndyGunFreak | hmm | 01:29 |
| qcjn | i'm having problems with my grilfriend's sansa e200 mp3 player. I put song in it, an it doesn't see it ? | 01:29 |
| exodus_ms | jrib: cool, thank you | 01:29 |
| mlLK | anyone have a quick tutorial for configuring mouse buttons for firefox | 01:30 |
| IndyGunFreak | adam_: pretty much | 01:30 |
| rww | Ward1983: yeah, oftc is the official network, it seems: http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GCConIRC | 01:30 |
| qcjn | i wen't and look with easytag to be sure the tag was ok, and they look ok to me | 01:30 |
| adam_ | ok | 01:30 |
| Paddy_EIRE | IndyGunFreak, long time no see.. you been hiding :) | 01:30 |
| mlLK | or am i stuck w/ editing my xorg.conf ? | 01:30 |
| adam_ | would a DVD + R 4.7 GB cd do? | 01:30 |
| Ward1983 | rww, sure i dodnt mean it like that, i meant more like thanx | 01:30 |
| joeb3_ | qcjn, look under recently added. | 01:30 |
| IndyGunFreak | Paddy_EIRE: workin like a hebrew slave.. i'm here.. but i donm't talk much.. im in #club-ubuntu mostly | 01:30 |
| Paddy_EIRE | IndyGunFreak, ah I see | 01:30 |
| thansom | hi all, I have a question about screen resolutions for an nvidia geforce 6150 LE card. On older ubuntu with the restricted driver it worked fine... | 01:31 |
| qcjn | joeb3_: ok | 01:31 |
| rww | Ward1983: Yeah, I know, was just mentioning why I said to go to OFTC. You're welcome (and good luck!) :) | 01:31 |
| Paddy_EIRE | IndyGunFreak, good to see you again anyhow :) | 01:31 |
| Ward1983 | rww, thanx | 01:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | Paddy_EIRE: :) likewise | 01:31 |
| thansom | with the latest version of ubuntu, the biggest res I can get is 1024x768 | 01:31 |
| omarco | hello, is there a way to mount PTP cameras as removable storage automatically? | 01:31 |
| mlLK | anyone using imwheel? | 01:31 |
| thansom | is there anyway i can fix the Xorg resoltion to be correct? | 01:31 |
| jrib | mlLK: how would that help? If the buttons are recognized, just use xbindkeys or imwheel to bind them | 01:31 |
| Paddy_EIRE | thansom, have you tried installing your gfx card perhaps :) | 01:32 |
| qcjn | joeb3_: recently added in Ubuntu, not in Sansa | 01:32 |
| mlLK | jrib, which one is easier? | 01:32 |
| joeb3_ | qcjn, recently added on the Sansa. | 01:32 |
| Paddy_EIRE | thansom, "System > Administration > Hardware Drivers" and tell me what you see. | 01:32 |
| mlLK | firefox acts gay when i hit my middle-mouse button | 01:32 |
| thansom | Paddy_EIRE, I dont need to do anything with it... I just installed the restricted drivers like normal | 01:32 |
| jrib | mlLK: xbindkeys is sort of universal, imwheel allows you to specify different binding for different programs. Equal difficulty imo | 01:32 |
| Paddy_EIRE | thansom, oh I see | 01:33 |
| qcjn | joeb3_: i didn't know there was a recently added on the Sansa | 01:33 |
| Flannel | mlLK: Please don't use that term pejoratively. | 01:33 |
| thansom | Paddy_EIRE, eh, okay... but I know it's nvidia-glx-177 or somerthing | 01:33 |
| thansom | let me look | 01:33 |
| mlLK | jrib, i'll give imwheel a shot | 01:33 |
| jrib | mlLK: what does firefox do exactly when you hit middle click? | 01:33 |
| mlLK | Flannel, my apologizes | 01:33 |
| mlLK | 3 | 01:33 |
| mlLK | acts the same no matter the mouse | 01:33 |
| adam_ | Ok im downloading a new version | 01:33 |
| thansom | yep, it's activated | 01:34 |
| adam_ | 738MB O_O | 01:34 |
| mlLK | jrib, sometimes it'll take me back a page other times it'll redirect to a link somewhere in the page | 01:34 |
| adam_ | so how good is 8.10 compareing to 5.04 | 01:34 |
| rww | adam_: much, much better. And supported! | 01:34 |
| IndyGunFreak | adam_: ok, all you need to do then, is burn the image to a CD.. do you know how to burn an iso? | 01:34 |
| thansom | why won't the resolution settings allow me to select higher than 1024x768? the card supports 1600xsomething | 01:34 |
| DiiPhantom | hows ubuntu security compared to windows? and i apologize for the question | 01:34 |
| Paddy_EIRE | thansom, ok if this trigger I am about to fire fails you get back to me and we will try something else | 01:34 |
| Paddy_EIRE | !fixres | 01:34 |

| adam_ | no | 01:34 |
| adam_ | i know how to burn a cd tho | 01:34 |
| donny | thansen: paste your xorg.conf? | 01:34 |
| mlLK | jrib, while all i want is my auto-scroll feature | 01:34 |
| IndyGunFreak | adam_: well, burning an ISO is a bit different | 01:35 |
| jrib | mlLK: run 'xev' and see what button number middle click is generating. What mouse? | 01:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | adam_: are you on ubuntu now?.. or on windows? | 01:35 |
| mlLK | jrib, is there perhaps an app i'm missing for this feature? | 01:35 |
| Paddy_EIRE | donny, that method is depreciated and not recommended | 01:35 |
| thansom | Paddy_EIRE, oh, already been there | 01:35 |
| mlLK | k | 01:35 |
| adam_ | ubuntu | 01:35 |
| mker | is there some kind of application loader where I just start writing the name and get a list? a bit like autocomplete in terminal, something that I can use keyboard only for. | 01:35 |
| donny | Paddy_EIRE: xorg.conf? | 01:35 |
| thansom | already restarted X and everything | 01:35 |
| marcrosoft | Anyone elses pulseaudio just close randomly after a few hours of running? | 01:35 |
| Paddy_EIRE | thansom, ok.. have you tried envyng? | 01:35 |
| Paddy_EIRE | donny, yes | 01:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | adam_: look and see if you have a program in sound/video called either gnomebaker or k3b | 01:35 |
| thansom | envying? | 01:35 |
| donny | Paddy_EIRE: can you point me to some docs about the deprecation? | 01:35 |

| rww | mker: I use Alt-F2 "Run Application" in GNOME for that. It autocompletes after a few letters. Gnome-do might do the same sort of thing. | 01:35 |

| joeb3_ | qcjn, copy the file to the sansa. Right click the icon on the desktop and select unmount. Then see if it is there. | 01:37 |

I don't know if this has anything to do with it but in archive manager it says the file name and Read Only after the title. | 01:51 |

| masque7 | jrgp: i would like to reformat it. fdisk -l shows it as NTFS - would this be a decent filesystem to use for my purposes? | 02:04 |
| jrib | mas2_: experience I guess. You'll want to add the command to ~/.xprofile or use system -> preferences -> sessions -> startup | 02:04 |
| mas2_ | jrib: or else I have to do it every time? | 02:05 |

| alexb92 | and yeah i even checked the cd for defects befor the install | 02:07 |
| Flannel | adam_: They're people from around your area, they may be able to get you a CD (much faster than shipit) either in person, or via USPS or whatever | 02:07 |
| rww | adam_: join #ubuntu-us-sc (assuming you're in South Carolina) and ask if they can send an Ubuntu CD to you. | 02:07 |

| Bogaurd | is there an issue with feisty repo's atm? I don't seem to able able to do and apt-get update no matter what sources I use... | 02:18 |
| IrishDavid | hello, is there anyway to launch rythmbox into a local session on a machine (I want to be able to launch it from an ssh session so that it shares the music) | 02:18 |
| jrib | !feisty | Bogaurd | 02:18 |
| ubottu | Bogaurd: Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) was the sixth release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: October 19th, 2008. See !eol for more details. | 02:18 |
| jrib | Bogaurd: upgrade to a supported release | 02:18 |
| omarco_pizza | is there a way to mount PTP cameras as removable storage automatically? | 02:18 |
| rww | Bogaurd: Feisty became unsupported in October 2008, and its apt archives were moved to old-releases.ubuntu.com | 02:19 |
| Bogaurd | jrib: oh.. I didn't realise that the apt-archives got moved. I'll give that a go. | 02:19 |
| Flannel | Bogaurd: You should strongly consider upgrading. Feisty isn't receiving security updates anymore. | 02:19 |
| rww | !upgrade | Bogaurd | 02:19 |
| ubottu | Bogaurd: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 02:19 |
| Bogaurd | I will do an upgrade, it's just a question of preparing a replacement machine, can't really have any downtime on the machine running feisty currently, it's a router :) | 02:20 |
| omarco_pizza | Bogaurd: for such applications, distros like Ubuntu Server LTS or Debian stable seem more apropriate | 02:21 |

| Flannel | Bogaurd: You may want to consider LTS releases in the future (8.04 is the current one), they're supported for 5 years on servers (and you can upgrade from LTS to LTS, so 6.06 to 8.04 to 10.04) | 02:21 |

| IndyGunFreak | rymetyme: my PC runs dual monitors, not sure on the driver version (not sitting at it) | 02:22 |
| rymetyme | hey indy you helped me earlier | 02:22 |
| Bogaurd | omarco_pizza, Flannel, I usually use LTS on most of the machines i manage, but from memory i used feisty on this box because of a requirement I had which the LTS at the time didnt meet :) | 02:23 |
| mker | petafile, what do you mean? a little popup thingy in the corner that shows what's playing? | 02:23 |

| petafile | mker: yes | 02:26 |

| === joaboaconstrctr is now known as joaboaconstrctr_ | ||
| adam_ | Does Ubuntu have aneything to run like CHKDSK Incase something breaks from a hard shutdown | 02:27 |
| Flannel | alexb92: the same way as regular dual booting | 02:27 |
| Pici | !fsck | adam_ | 02:27 |
| ubottu | adam_: 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 | 02:27 |
| mker | petafile, right click it in tray and you'll see that option | 02:27 |
| Fractured | is there a program that lets you install multiple OSs to a USB flash drive, with say GRUB included? | 02:27 |

| adam_ | k | 02:28 |
| adam_ | thanks | 02:28 |
| adam_ | windows version starts alittle to late after your computer crashes | 02:28 |
| omarco | Fractured: Some operating systems allow you to use external usb flash drives as fixed hard disks seamlessly | 02:28 |
| ubuntuboy | u can put the fractured i thing u can make more than one partition in usb | 02:28 |
| alexb92 | flannel : i installed ubuntu onto the second hdd and i restarted and it only went back into windows and didnt boot ubuntu | 02:28 |
| ubuntuboy | and then uses only the usb disk without any hard drive | 02:28 |
| ubuntuboy | and instal many gnu/linux | 02:29 |
| Flannel | alexb92: You'll want to specify that grub should be instlaled on the first harddrive (or, change your boot sequence in your BIOS to boot the second one) | 02:29 |
| omarco | Fractured:Try just firing up the installer and try to point the usb drive as the installation device | 02:29 |
| nbeebo | many games got "voice in-game" and etc that gets the voice from the microphone, instead of the voice i want the microphone to record/get the sound from the desktop to be played instead.. example, me playing music | 02:29 |
| ubuntuboy | alexb92 | 02:29 |
| Fractured | ubuntuboy: then how do you select between them? if you have more than one on a flash drive | 02:29 |
| ubuntuboy | u need to put the grub installed in your partition of hard drive | 02:29 |
| ubuntuboy | or in that hard drive | 02:29 |
| IndyGunFreak | rymetyme: did it work? | 02:30 |

| omarco | ubuntuboy: A kodak, presumably using PTP. I can only download photos from it from F-Spot, but I wanted to mount it as a mass storage device so that I can run a script to copy the files from it | 02:38 |
| ubuntuboy | can u setup u'r usb device on the camera maybe can be change the mode of usb connection | 02:39 |
| rww | FAJALOU: see http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/2749 . Looks like you've done something similar. | 02:39 |

| rymetyme | man this is frustrating | 02:40 |

| osaka | anyone? | 02:40 |
| Eggbertx | um can someone help me with a problem dual booting ubuntu? | 02:41 |
| unavailable | what's the prob? | 02:41 |
| FAJALOU | rwww thankee very much | 02:41 |
| omny_devi | depends on what the problem is | 02:41 |
| unavailable | cant boot to windows? | 02:41 |
| Eggbertx | no | 02:41 |
| Eggbertx | installer | 02:41 |
| unavailable | wubi? | 02:41 |
| Eggbertx | i got as far as the partition resizing | 02:41 |

| Eggbertx | ok | 02:42 |
| rww | osaka: Is it the Windows bootscreen? black and white with the option to boot windows? | 02:42 |
| unavailable | restart in windows, run a chkdsk then scandisk, then defrag | 02:42 |
| omny_devi | Egg - you are not sure how you want to partition it? | 02:42 |
| unavailable | wait. | 02:42 |
| ubuntuboy | omarco maybe u can see what kind of partition mounts that camera | 02:42 |
| unavailable | forget the scandisk | 02:42 |
| osaka | yeah rww | 02:42 |
| Eggbertx | I know how I want to partition it. it isn't partitioning | 02:42 |
| Eggbertx | there is an error | 02:42 |
| rww | osaka: what version of Windows are you using? XP, Vista, etc... | 02:42 |
| omny_devi | ahh, what is the error? | 02:42 |
| unavailable | Eggbertx: just in windows run chkdsk then defrag | 02:42 |
| Eggbertx | xp | 02:42 |
| osaka | it has the options to boot to vista or ubuntu | 02:43 |
| osaka | see above | 02:43 |
| omny_devi | yeah, do what unavailable said :) | 02:43 |
| Eggbertx | i ran chkdsk | 02:43 |
| omarco | ubuntuboy: tried that. It doesn't mount like a mass storage device (e.g. in /media) | 02:43 |
| unavailable | Eggbertx: defrag | 02:43 |
| Shakedown | how do I know if I have the necessary packages to write Java 2D code? | 02:43 |
| the_squircle | Hi. My splash screen isn't working at startup, but it is at shutdown. any suggestions? | 02:43 |
| unavailable | Eggbertx: there might be data where you are trying to set the boundry at | 02:43 |
| Eggbertx | and my firend on mozilla server said defrag wont help | 02:43 |
| Kyprioth | Hello again. The partition installer is asking about "swap space." How do I set up a partition for swap space? | 02:43 |
| rww | osaka: restart into Windows, Click Start > Run..., and type in msconfig. One of the tabs in there lets you edit boot options; you should be able to remove the Ubuntu option from there. | 02:43 |
| Ward1983 | how can i check what gcc i use at the moment? | 02:43 |
| unavailable | Eggbertx: your friend doesnt know what he's talking about | 02:43 |
| Eggbertx | no | 02:43 |
| Eggbertx | it didnt even install | 02:43 |
| unavailable | Eggbertx: do a defrag | 02:44 |
| osaka | ahh, thanks rww, i'll stay on here as i do it | 02:44 |
| osaka | :D | 02:44 |
| Ward1983 | how can i check what gcc i use to compile stuff at the moment (i need to make sure i use gcc4.x) | 02:44 |
| Eggbertx | can i do that from ubuntu cuz im usin livecd and if i restart i lose everything | 02:44 |
| donavan__ | anyone know way x is crashing everytime I play a movie and start firefox ... this problem just started today | 02:44 |
| rww | Ward1983: gcc -v | 02:44 |
| unavailable | Eggbertx: think of this, if there is data where you want to have another drive begin, the data must be moved. the best way to move it, is to do a defrag | 02:44 |
| Ward1983 | rww, thanx | 02:44 |
| rww | Ward1983: if you're using 8.10, it defaults to GCC 4.3.2. | 02:45 |
| osaka | rww: Vista is the only one that shows up | 02:45 |
| Eggbertx | yes but couldnt there still be data where i want it to be moved? | 02:45 |
| Kyprioth | The partition installer is asking about "swap space." How do I set up a partition for swap space? | 02:45 |
| sjovan | does any one know is jinzora requiers flash? i wonder if iywould work with my nintendo wii | 02:45 |
| unavailable | Eggbertx: well then you would have a case of not having enough space free on the drive to make the second one | 02:45 |
| Ward1983 | rww, correcT gcc version 4.3.2 | 02:45 |
| Eggbertx | no theres plenty | 02:45 |
| RealKillaz | I have problem watching DVD on my ubuntu installation.. | 02:45 |
| Eggbertx | should i try moving the entry point around a little? | 02:45 |
| rww | osaka: Okay. Search for "EasyBCD" online and download it. It should be able to remove it. | 02:46 |
| comhack | Hello all, I installed Ubuntu 8.10 for my cousin which lives a 1000 miles from me. Anyway he loves it but he recently got a logitech quickcam chat webcam for Xmas and he is having problems getting it to work. I googled and found a few thousand links for ubuntu and this webcam but nothing useful. So now I am asking does anyone have a straight forward way of doing this. BTW I have used linux for 8 years, so I could probably fix it | 02:46 |
| Eggbertx | cuz it was set to gb | 02:46 |
| omarco | How can I mount my camera as a mass storage device? | 02:46 |
| unavailable | Eggbertx: ok... if you have data ANYWHERE that occupies where the new drive will be... you need to defrag | 02:46 |
| pbn | Hi there. I've got X at 98% most of the time, I think this means my video card drivers aren't properly set up. It's an Intel 82845G/GL . I have installed xserver-xorg-intel. However, /etc/X11/xorg.conf does not have any line saying "INtel". How do I "enable" the Intel driver ? | 02:46 |
| osaka | alright rww | 02:46 |
| comhack | I have managed to walk him through everything so far using virtualbox (archlinux user) from here | 02:46 |
| Eggbertx | is there an ubuntu defragger in intrepid | 02:47 |
| unavailable | Eggbertx: does it say to use it for windows?? | 02:47 |
| comhack | Eggbertx: why would u need a defrager on liux? | 02:47 |
| comhack | linux? | 02:47 |
| unavailable | Eggbertx: because people don't listen | 02:47 |
| Eggbertx | so i could defrag without restarting | 02:47 |
| nickrud | unavailable, it should be used 'automagically'; you can check by looking at /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 02:47 |
| rww | comhack: what exact type of Logitech Quickcam is it? | 02:47 |
| comhack | logitech quickcam chat | 02:47 |
| Eggbertx | i dont want to restart cuz id hav to get cZ and do everything else again | 02:47 |
| comhack | i know not very descriptive but thats all they gave mew | 02:48 |
| Shakedown | how do I update to the latest versions of java? I need the development environment and runtime environment | 02:48 |
| nbeebo | omarco, mass storage device is the same as storage right? | 02:48 |
| comhack | tried to get a serial number but no luck | 02:48 |
| comhack | not very techy | 02:48 |
| unavailable | nickrud: i am trying to relay the fact that Eggbertx's best plan of action before installing ubuntu is to run a defrag on his disk in windows, that way it will minimize errors and prevent data loss | 02:48 |
| McShane | Eggbertx, the ext3 file system isn't really affected by fragmentation | 02:48 |
| nickrud | unavailable, absolutely | 02:48 |
| McShane | nor ext2, for that matter | 02:48 |
| omarco | nbeebo: I use "mass storage" because it's what most people recognise as "can be used like a pendrive" | 02:48 |
| Eggbertx | so its because of the windows partition that it needs to be defragged if that makes sense? | 02:49 |
| nickrud | unavailable, in fact, if he has vista I'd suggest using the resizer in vista on the ntfs partition | 02:49 |
| UK-PK | which linux version support asterisk software ? | 02:49 |
| Eggbertx | I DONT HAV VISTA | 02:49 |
| unavailable | even better | 02:49 |
| rww | comhack: tell him to do "lsusb" at a terminal, look for the line that says Logitech, and give you the two groups of four characters after ID on that line. There are several different types of QC Chat. | 02:49 |
| comhack | yeah I figured | 02:49 |
| nickrud | Eggbertx, that's why I said if ;) | 02:49 |
| comhack | thanks | 02:49 |
| ubuntuboy | omarco maybe u can find the name of the device that uses that camera | 02:49 |
| Eggbertx | oh | 02:49 |
| McShane | Eggbertx, I don't know of any NTFS defraggers that work within Linux | 02:49 |
| Ward1983 | rww, do you know if i can use a lower version of gcc just for this program only? | 02:49 |
| ubuntuboy | then u can use the comand mount and auto | 02:49 |
| Eggbertx | ok ill just defrag and try it again | 02:49 |
| Ward1983 | rww, it has compatibillity issues with the latest gcc | 02:49 |
| Dexi | does anyone know of a good CPU monitoring/controlling app? | 02:50 |
| ubuntuboy | for mount that in a previus directory | 02:50 |
| ubuntuboy | created | 02:50 |
| comhack | I even tried getting them to run easycam2 but it hung up fgor them | 02:50 |
| UK-PK | Dexi, use task manager | 02:50 |
| omarco | ubuntuboy: hmmm, how could I do that? | 02:50 |
| rww | Ward1983: Would GCC 3.4 work? | 02:50 |
| comhack | Its always something little to snag the beginners | 02:50 |
| Ward1983 | rww, probably (they seem to have trouble from 4.x onwards) | 02:50 |
| osaka | gonna restart, brb | 02:50 |

| unavailable | grendal_prime: what kind of laptop?? | 02:52 |
| rww | Ward1983: install package gcc-3.4, then use "gcc-3.4" at the command line instead of gcc. | 02:52 |
| UK-PK | Dexi , press ctrl+alt + dell butten then select task manager . it will show your system process and you can see performance of CPU too | 02:52 |
| nbeebo | omarco, you can format it if that would help..? | 02:52 |
| ubuntuboy | omarco do you readme | 02:52 |
| unavailable | UK-PK: dell button? | 02:52 |
| omny_devi | erm, anyone know the place to install the java for 64 bit ubuntu installations? | 02:52 |
| Ward1983 | rww, im just using ./configure with some params, make and make install | 02:52 |
| Dexi | UK-PK: dell button? | 02:52 |
| omarco | ubuntu: I read you, ten-four ;-) | 02:52 |
| Ward1983 | rww, so i dunno how to force 3.4 | 02:52 |
| Eggbertx | omny_devy: it should be on their site | 02:52 |
| funkapus | anyone able to get vpnc working recently? i had it working successfully a few weeks ago, but it's badly broken now (since i moved off networkmanager to /etc/network/interfaces; tried going back to networkmanager too, with no joy). | 02:52 |
| UK-PK | unavialbe dell = delete button | 02:52 |
| grendal_prime | dell 1420n inspiron with ubuntu preinstall | 02:52 |
| omny_devi | egg- thanks | 02:52 |
| Dexi | UK-PK: we are talking linux here, not windows, right? | 02:53 |
| Eggbertx | thats just a guess tho | 02:53 |
| Eggbertx | they should have it | 02:53 |

| osaka | and just a quick question, i plan on booting ubuntu off of my thumb drive, and I wanna make it a media center PC | 02:58 |
| Dexi | rww: this ones a bit bad... did apt-get on the lm-sensors package... now i cant find it | 02:58 |

| aprilhare | i don't know what went wrong, and i want run some old mac os stuff soon :) | 02:59 |
| brut- | quick question: does anyone have any idea if there is a utility that'll help me identify what filesystem a particular image was created with? | 02:59 |
| Dexi | rww: maybe i missed some stuff. i kinda skimmed it. ill go back | 02:59 |

| Guest70994 | hello | 02:59 |
| aprilhare | helo Guest70994 | 02:59 |

| Guest70994 | I updated my system to ubuntu 8.10 and lost cups completely, despite it is installed ... | 03:00 |
| Guest70994 | any suggestions to get back my printers? | 03:00 |
| rww | Dexi: basically, you want to do "sudo sensors-detect" and answer yes to every question (even the last one), then do "sudo sensors" to test lm-sensors. If that works, install sensors-applet and add it to your panel. | 03:00 |
| Dexi | rww: thanks. I got it now :p | 03:01 |
| Guest70994 | hello aprilhare | 03:01 |
| remu | raylu, Hey, I think I was talking to you last night about my server...right? | 03:01 |
| donavan__ | anyone know why x is crashing every time I play a movie and start firefox at the same time... this problem just started today | 03:01 |
| Guest70994 | updated to Ubuntu 8.10, XCUPS run away | 03:02 |
| jwjones1706 | ok iv done almost all of what was said | 03:02 |
| Dexi | rww, put the info at the bottom of /etc/modules? | 03:02 |
| jwjones1706 | but i havent found anything stating wether or not i can install ubuntu onto the ps3 from a thumb drive | 03:03 |
| rww | Dexi: yeah. But sensors-detect should do it itself (it asks you whether you want it to on the last question) | 03:03 |
| Dexi | rww: oh haha i didnt get that far, i just saw "#--cut here-- and did it. lol | 03:03 |
| omarco | does anyone here already used something called gphotofs? | 03:04 |
| rww | Dexi: either way works ;) | 03:04 |
| Dexi | rww: ok so i did that, do i need to restart, sudo sensors didnt work | 03:04 |
| ubuntuboy | someone can tell where is the file to change that vlc player open always video .. | 03:05 |
| ubuntuboy | and no more totem | 03:05 |
| jmartini | can the ubuntu installer partitioning tool resize an ntfs filesystem? | 03:05 |
| rww | Dexi: oh, duh, I forgot a step. If you have the list of stuff it told you to put in /etc/modules, for each line, do "sudo modprobe modulename". That should get it working. | 03:05 |
| rww | jmartini: yes | 03:05 |
| ubuntuboy | yes it can .,.. use de gparted or qtparted | 03:05 |
| jmartini | excellent, thanks | 03:05 |
| Guest70994 | Is there anyone that could help? | 03:06 |
| Dexi | rww: ok. there are a few other things on the site... for etc/init.d/...... ignore that for now? | 03:06 |

| p4_ | hey is anyone able to direct me to a decent page where i could learn how to use iptables to setup a port whitelist pls? | 03:06 |

| remu | Hey everyone, I was on here last night trying to get help with my home server issues, but it was late and I had to run, so I'll ask here again. The issue that I am having is that my server can no longer get an IP address from my Linksys router (which is loaded with the dd-wrt firmware). The router used to give out, and still should, a static IP address based on the MAC address of the network device asking for one. The other 4 compu | 03:08 |
| remu | ters in the house, can all get an IP address just fine wirelessly, and the one other computer and VOIP device hooked up using ethernet (like the server box is) can also get their IP addresses just fine. No other system is having an issue other than this server box. I have tried the following things 1) Tried 3 different cables (that all work with my other machine) 2) Two separate Ethernet NICs (I have tested them both in another mac | 03:08 |
| remu | hine, and they work). 3) I have formatted and reinstalled Ubuntu 8.04.1 Server addition again. Doing these things has not helped fix my issue. I was hoping if someone could help me troubleshoot this. It was all working fine untill last night when I physically moved the server about 10 feet into a new spot in the same room. I really don't know what to do anymore so any help would be greatly appreciated! | 03:08 |
| zelda | CaptainMorgan: It doesnt work. Already tried it. | 03:08 |

| Guest70994 | no cups under ubuntu 8.10? Any help? | 03:09 |
| Guest70994 | please | 03:09 |
| remu | rww yeah..thats what my english teacher always said to me, haha. | 03:09 |
| nomead | remu: use pasteplace.net faster loading and more legible fonts | 03:10 |
| phlux | aptitude install cups? | 03:10 |
| vorian | remu: do NOT use that site | 03:10 |
| ubuntuboy | u can add the hardy repository and install.. but maybe.. problems.. will came | 03:10 |
| phlux | what's wrong with that site | 03:10 |
| dr_willis | Guest70994, you may want to address the channel and be more verbose as to what your error specically and what you have done to trouble shoot the problem so far. | 03:10 |
| Dexi | rww: ok. now for access to this? | 03:10 |
| phlux | ah.. | 03:11 |
| phlux | lol | 03:11 |
| rww | Dexi: Okay. You installed sensors-applet, right? | 03:11 |
| remu | vorian, nomead Don't worry, I don't need to paste right now since my story got through, lol. Now I'm just hoping for help, lol. | 03:11 |
| Dexi | rww: yes. | 03:11 |
| rww | Dexi: right-click your GNOME panel, click Add to Panel..., click "Hardware Sensors Monitor", click "Add", right-click the new applet that comes up and click Preferences, and configure it to your liking. | 03:11 |
| === OrbJinzo is now known as OrbJinzo|AFK | ||
| Dexi | oh wow | 03:12 |
| Guest70994 | dr_willis I am trying to be syntethic as english is not my first language and I think no need to be writing a lot | 03:12 |
| Dexi | my GPU is hot | 03:12 |
| rww | Dexi: how hot is "hot"? | 03:12 |
| Dexi | 56c | 03:12 |
| ubuntuboy | that's cold | 03:12 |
| Guest70994 | in fact i upgraded UBUNTU 8.10 from 8.04 | 03:12 |
| rww | Dexi: that's actually normal or cold ;) | 03:12 |
| Dexi | hot compared to everything else tho | 03:12 |
| Guest70994 | and realized no printers and no printer service at all | 03:12 |
| Dexi | and the large red bar makes it look hotter | 03:12 |
| ubuntuboy | name of gpu ? | 03:13 |
| Guest70994 | came to administration services and no cups serveice is listed | 03:13 |
| rww | Dexi: hehe. By default, sensors-applet displays the wrong sensor for me, and says my CPU is 127*C... now /that's/ hot ;) | 03:13 |
| Guest70994 | tryed to install ups but it was alredy installed | 03:13 |
| lacita_ | mrjohnsen: re you running the eeepc version? | 03:13 |
| Dexi | I have three things labeled only "temp 1, temp 2, temp 3" and they're in the negs....... wtf? | 03:13 |
| rww | Dexi: pastebin the output of the "sensors" command? | 03:14 |
| Guest70994 | came to help on internet and saw a lot of people has same problem , but no useful solution was seen so far | 03:14 |
| Dexi | ok | 03:14 |
| mrjohnsen | lacita_: no, ubuntu 8.10 with array custom kernel | 03:14 |
| ohmygod | hello,who knows how to use the git-diff, I want to see the diff in some gui tool, like meld | 03:14 |
| mrjohnsen | lacita_: I have seen that other people run games like openarena just fine with eee but mine is just showing wierd distortion | 03:15 |
| Dexi | rww: http://paste.ubuntu.com/100763/ | 03:15 |
| Guest70994 | dr_willis is it enough as info? or some more is needed? | 03:15 |
| eseven73 | ohmygod: kdiff3 is pretty nice | 03:16 |
| ubuntuboy | mrjohnsen ati video card ? | 03:16 |
| mrjohnsen | ubuntuboy: no it's a intel. | 03:17 |
| rww | Dexi: okay. Take a look at that output real quick. Everything before the first blank line (lines 2-19) are from your motherboard sensors. Many motherboard sensors suck, and it looks like yours is an example of that :P. Your Core 0 and Core 1 sensors look alright, though, so you may want to monitor them instead. | 03:17 |
| rww | Dexi: there should be an option in Sensors-Applet's Preferences to choose which sensors you want. | 03:18 |
| ubuntuboy | disable filters of the video card in the game | 03:18 |
| Dexi | Rww: thanks thats all im really lookin for :p | 03:18 |
| eeee6 | will this bluetooth adapter work in ubuntu?: http://www.microbarn.com/details.aspx?rid=102267&source=froogle | 03:18 |
| ohmygod | eseven73, thanx, I mean watch the git-diff 's data in that gui tool | 03:18 |
| Dexi | rww: holy crap i have like 19 other sensors apparently | 03:18 |
| ohmygod | eseven73, can kdiff3 used like " git-diff | kdiff3 " ? | 03:19 |
| Dexi | in0 through in8, and 3 fan sensors :p | 03:19 |
| eseven73 | oh im not sure ohmygod | 03:19 |
| eseven73 | ohmygod: i thought you meant just for regular files | 03:19 |
| eseven73 | sorry | 03:19 |

| rymetyme | ok I have looked at about 10 forums and about 30 threads but I can't seem to find an answer about seperate x screens on nvidia version 173 x server | 03:19 |
| the_squircle | !hello | restu | 03:20 |
| ubottu | restu: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 03:20 |
| rww | Dexi: yup. in0 through in8 are the voltages going in to your motherboard (if you look inside your computer, there's probably a fat cable from your power supply unit to your motherboard; different wires in that cable have different voltages). You probably can ignore those ;) | 03:20 |
| the_squircle | rymetyme: just plug in the external monitor, go to the NVIDIA settings, click "detect displays" and you'll be good to go. | 03:20 |
| eseven73 | hehe theres a trick with forum searching on google rymetyme add '[SOLVED]' at the end of the search :) | 03:20 |
| restu | i have probleme with ati x1100 | 03:20 |
| crayvec | Is there a video converter for Ubuntu 8 Intrepid that will convert MPEG 4 video to MPEG 2? | 03:21 |
| the_squircle | restu: what's your problem? | 03:21 |
| Dexi | rww: yeah ignoring... :p lol and its not THAT fat of a cable... my systems weird tho... when building it, i had to wrap the power cord to my CPU fan around the fans cage | 03:21 |
| the_squircle | crayvec: ffmpeg | 03:21 |
| ubuntuboy | yes ffmpeg | 03:21 |
| rymetyme | done that already but they don't cover my specific problem which is that twinview works but seperate x screens do not | 03:21 |

| GringoChapin | Hi all. Dumb newbie question. I have a Windows PC with a Samsung ml1740 printer connected. The printer is shared. I'm setting up my wife's laptop with Ubuntu because windows runs too slow for her. Will I need to find a driver for that printer that works under Ubuntu, or do clients accessing networked printers not require a driver? | 03:21 |
| orik | anyone here? | 03:21 |
| eseven73 | the_squircle: 'what's your problem' kinda seems harsh i'd use 'what is the problem' myself :) | 03:21 |
| rww | Dexi: I had to do that too, actually. The wire was way, way longer than the half-inch distance to the power port. | 03:22 |
| ubuntuboy | qtube i thing i can't remember | 03:22 |
| Guest70994 | Anyone here got a problem with CUPS when updated to ubuntu 8.10, and can help me please ? | 03:22 |

| the_squircle | eseven73: thanks for pointing that out. you're right :P i'm not the emacs psychotherapist | 03:22 |
| rymetyme | squircle it detects both monitors but i can't get seperate x screens to work | 03:22 |
| the_squircle | Guest70994: nope. | 03:22 |
| Dexi | rww: yeah. I briefly considered trimming the length, but quickly decided that was more than i was ready to f* up | 03:23 |
| the_squircle | rymetyme: i don't know how to troubleshoot that beyond this point... try getting someone else to help. sorry! | 03:23 |
| the_squircle | GringoChapin: Ubuntu should have all the drivers you need | 03:23 |
| the_squircle | GringoChapin: I can look up your specific printer if you give me a second | 03:23 |
| Guest70994 | Thx the_squircle. Unfortunately it is a problem that a lot of user are facing .... | 03:23 |

| the_squircle | Guest70994: what's the problem? maybe I can try to help... | 03:24 |
| rymetyme | np squircle who has nvidia x server working in seperate x screens at 1280 x 1024 | 03:24 |
| donavan__ | gringochapin ... if the printer is installed to a windows machine you will most likely need a driver or at least convince windows that you have a driver ... never tried printing in linux but you might want to look into whether or not the printer is a windows only printer ... I got screwed on that one a few times trying to use windows 98 ... if thats the case you can always try setting it as a laserjet 3 more often than not you ca | 03:24 |
| donavan__ | n lie to printers | 03:24 |
| Noxz_ | it says I have the latest of libgconf2-dev ...but still gconf/gconf-client.h: No such file or directory | 03:24 |
| rww | Dexi: anyway, if you have everything set up right, I'm going to go away for a while and untangle that lm-sensors wiki page some more... | 03:24 |
| orik | anyone have any idea what to do? | 03:24 |
| Dexi | rww: haha i think im good, but you said by default the reading could be wrong? | 03:25 |
| crayvec | Does FFmpeg have a gui? Sorry to ask a dumb question | 03:25 |
| orik | I also increased my MTU to 1500, that seemed to help for a bit but it's slow again | 03:25 |
| usser | !ffmpeg | 03:26 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ffmpeg | 03:26 |
| Guest70994 | the_squircle Thanks for trying ! I updated to 8.10. Trying to print do not see any printer . Checked for CUPS printing it can be opened by loclhost and it is not listed on my system services. Tryed to intsll it , but it is installed! | 03:26 |
| rww | Dexi: I meant that some of the sensors that sensors-applet shows you by default might be incorrect, so you should configure it to use working ones (i.e., Core 0 and 1 in your case). | 03:26 |
| the_squircle | Guest70994: Sorry... I have to clue to even begin to troubleshoot that :p | 03:26 |
| Dexi | rww: oh i get it. ok. :p wont keep you any longer. have fun editing | 03:26 |
| CaptainMorgan | ubuntuboy, p4_ that's incredible stuff! major thank you! | 03:27 |
| p4_ | np mate, enjoy | 03:27 |
| Guest70994 | Thx again the_squircle ... a lot of users are reporting same problems on forum | 03:27 |
| donavan__ | anyone know why X is crashing every time I play a dvd and then start firefox... this problem just started today | 03:27 |

| ubuntuboy | no it does not have and gui ffmeg | 03:27 |

| rymetyme | Please help! Im 2 days into my linux life and I read for about a month before i installed and this problem with nvidia x server is making me lose faith | 03:28 |
| orik | use duct tape | 03:28 |
| eeee6 | haha funny | 03:28 |
| crayvec | I had problem with Nvida untill i stopped using the restricted drivers | 03:28 |
| Noxz_ | it says I have the latest of libgconf2-dev ...but still gconf/gconf-client.h: No such file or directory, I have purged the files and installed them again, but no luck | 03:29 |
| the_squircle | rymetyme: if you can't get an answer here, you can almost definately get an answer on the forums... there are tons of smart people there. | 03:29 |
| Noxz_ | so, is there a problem iwth libgconf2-dev ? | 03:29 |
| orik | why is my internet so much slower after upgrading to 8.10? | 03:29 |
| rymetyme | like I started with I have been to 10 forums and about 30 post using solved in my search but nothing that mentions my issue | 03:30 |
| donavan__ | rymetyme: what are you trying to do ? | 03:30 |
| techsupport | i am looking for a dedicated ubuntu server service, can someone recommend a provider ? | 03:31 |
| orik | well, i guess I'll go back to hardy...not looking forward to that | 03:31 |
| crayvec | No wonder I've been getting goofy results from google when searching for info , just noticed im on ubunto 10 not 8 | 03:31 |
| rymetyme | enable seperate x screens with 1 dvi attached moniter and 1 vga attached monitor (twinview works but opens apps in middle) | 03:31 |
| phlux | Anyone have any experience with Ubuntu and a USB printer? (Lexmark z2300 to be exact) | 03:32 |
| unavailable | good luck | 03:32 |
| phlux | I'm considering making Ubuntu my desktop OS, but I need printer function. | 03:32 |
| IndyGunFreak | phlux: i set up a z11.. should be pretty easy i would think | 03:32 |
| the_squircle | phlux: i have experience with lexmark and ubuntu in general... what's the problem? | 03:32 |
| Rolle | Hey ladies and gents =) | 03:32 |
| the_squircle | !hello | Rolle | 03:32 |
| ubottu | Rolle: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 03:32 |
| phlux | the_squircle: None as of now.. just want to know if anyone has done it with success. | 03:32 |
| the_squircle | phlux: well I have :) | 03:33 |
| the_squircle | phlux: you should always check openprinting.org first, though | 03:33 |
| phlux | I want to make Ubuntu my Desktop OS, but I need printer functionality and I need to share it with Windows laptops wirelessly. Think I can do all of that? | 03:33 |
| Dante123 | hi all, trying to get dell mini 9's in classroom to work with schools wifi network. I have been told by IT guy that the encryption is WEP 128 bit and shared key. He gave me a key (not sure if it is passphrase or ascii) but it doesn't work. Any suggestions? The mini 9's have 8.04 and network manager on them. Maybe I am entering something wrong. I don't think the wifi uses hex since the # symbol is part of the key. | 03:33 |
| Rolle | anyone know why video flickers when viewing? | 03:33 |
| Rolle | is it a video card problem? | 03:33 |
| Rolle | or driver? | 03:33 |
| the_squircle | phlux: definately | 03:33 |
| phlux | Rolle, I get the problem in Debian | 03:33 |
| marabout_ | hello | 03:33 |
| phlux | Mainly mpeg videos | 03:33 |
| donavan__ | rymetyme: google split screen nvidia in linux and then look under the video results there was a howto on that I saw a while back ... but my nvidia card died before I ever got it to work ... I know its not really an answer but it might get you to where you need | 03:34 |
| phlux | Flash videos run fine (such as youtube) | 03:34 |
| Rolle | i even get some flash videos flickering | 03:34 |
| mdg | Dante123: How do you like the mini 9's | 03:34 |
| orik | Can anyone help me with slow internet since upgrading to 8.10 please? | 03:34 |
| Rolle | but those are in between | 03:34 |
| the_squircle | Dante123: if it's 128 bits, it should be 4, 8, or 16 characters long in hex (0-9, A-F) | 03:34 |
| Rolle | mpeg mostly always | 03:34 |
| Dante123 | Any suggestions? Should I try upgrading to 8.10 (fear doing this because on my home computer upgrading 8.04 to 8.10 caused some errors with network mangler) | 03:34 |
| rymetyme | cool | 03:34 |
| rymetyme | donovan: thanks | 03:34 |
| Rolle | dante | 03:34 |
| Rolle | you could download the iso and just make a cd | 03:34 |
| joaboaconstrctr | anyone know how to configure xchat with sound? | 03:35 |
| marabout_ | can anyone help me to speed up Hardy I read somewhere that some non-essentials can be removed to gain speed | 03:35 |
| Rolle | prob a lil safer that way | 03:35 |
| mdg | Dante123: Do you know what kind of chip the wifi in the mini 9 is using? | 03:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | mdg: i think its an atheros.. not 100% sure though | 03:35 |
| marabout_ | Jack_Sparrow: are you here? | 03:35 |
| Dante123 | the_squircle network mangler gives three options (WEP Passphrase, WEP ascii, WEP Hex) The number symbol # is part of the key or passphrase....so it cant be the hex key. | 03:35 |
| Dante123 | The key or passphrase is 13 characters long | 03:36 |
| the_squircle | Dante123: I know on some operating systems it will often prefix a hex key with a dollar sign or number sign... or are there random letters and punctuation as part of the key? | 03:36 |
| Rolle | marabout_ not sure exactly but you could do apt-get autoremove | 03:36 |
| Rolle | but that wouldn't speed it up any | 03:36 |
| the_squircle | Dante123: 13 will work as well, sorry! | 03:36 |
| Rolle | just clear out some diskspace | 03:36 |
| Dante123 | mdg not sure on the chip...but the system came preinstalled with ubuntu 8.04 from dell and the wifi works unencrypted at home | 03:37 |
| Rolle | IndyGunFreak: you having wifi probs? | 03:37 |
| omny_devi | sounds like a key issue more than anything | 03:37 |
| GringoChapin | dante123: Does the # come at the beginning of the key? | 03:37 |
| mdg | Dante123: Sometimes wifi setup in Gnome can be flaky, perhaps it will work better from command line. | 03:37 |
| Dante123 | the_squircle I cannot enter the 13 character key/passphrase as hex because it will only let me enter numbers | 03:37 |
| IndyGunFreak | Rolle: not at all, someone w/ a mini 9 did | 03:37 |
| marabout_ | Rolle: ok thanks I'll try that - ok to open Terminal while gui running or do i need to do something special | 03:38 |
| Rolle | ahh gotcha :D | 03:38 |
| the_squircle | Dante123: if the # is at the beginning, omit it | 03:38 |
| Dante123 | if I selecte hex, only selecting shared passphrase or ascii allows me to enter # symbol | 03:38 |
| LightTitan_ | quick question, how do I get a list of all internet connections I currently have? Such as I am connected to skype and google talk and want to see what those IP's or domains are. | 03:38 |
| ubuntuboy | netstat -a | 03:38 |
| the_squircle | Dante123: a passphrase can be any letters or punctuation or numbers | 03:38 |
| orik | nobody can help me? | 03:38 |
| the_squircle | LightTitan_: netstat -a | 03:38 |
| the_squircle | orik: what do you need? | 03:38 |
| LightTitan_ | Thanks ubuntuboy and the_squircle | 03:38 |
| Dante123 | the_squircle the IT guy told me that Shift 3 is the first part of the key/passphrase so how I can I omit it?? | 03:38 |
| krista | how does this work? | 03:38 |
| the_squircle | :) | 03:38 |
| Rolle | marabout_: all it does is get rid of uncessary files. It won't speed up your system really, but yeah open in terminal sudo apt-get autoremove | 03:39 |
| IndyGunFreak | mdg: what is your wireless device | 03:39 |
| the_squircle | Dante123: just leave it out. | 03:39 |
| Rolle | just a cleansing thing | 03:39 |

| the_squircle | Sorry! | 03:39 |
| orik | sorry, didn't see the private messages | 03:39 |
| Dante123 | the_squircle if indeed it is using 128bit WEP with HEX.....how many characters will the key be? (A lot more than 13 I think) | 03:39 |
| Guest70994 | bye | 03:39 |
| marabout_ | Rolle: i was surfing and a person wrote about removing some sort of built-in survey mechanism . You ever heard of that? | 03:40 |
| ubuntuboy | only 15 | 03:40 |
| orik | I upgraded to 8.10 and now my internet is much slower | 03:40 |
| ubuntuboy | 0-9 a-f | 03:40 |
| mikeifying | guys was wondering me and my father are running a debian install of linux and from what i see it is extremely close ( desktop wise) to ubuntu any big difference between the two ? | 03:40 |
| GringoChapin | dante123: sometimes the # character is just placed at the beginning of the key to mark the beginning, but you don't usually type it as part of the key. Other than the #, does the key have any letters besides a b c d e and f? | 03:40 |
| ubuntuboy | are the same | 03:41 |
| the_squircle | Dante123: i know that my school's 128 bit wep key is waves... just those five letters. it turns out to be E666ADACBEF7F782AFD512RE | 03:41 |
| Dante123 | the_squircle what I am saying is that I dont think he gave me the HEX key....I think he gave me the passphrase or ascii. But I can try omitting the # key if you think it will make a difference. | 03:41 |
| GringoChapin | Dante123: in other words, letters greater than f? | 03:41 |
| hellhound_ | is there a way to set mouse buttons to move back, up and forward in nautilus? | 03:41 |
| Rolle | i'm just barely efficient in ubuntu---i have to google most of the technical stuff i need to do---so know | 03:41 |
| the_squircle | Dante123: you could give it a try | 03:41 |
| Rolle | but if you have a decent even somewhat decent computer it should work fine | 03:41 |
| IndyGunFreak | mikeifying: well, big difference, is debian is a lot *lighter* than Ubuntu.. but ubuntu has better hardware recognition, and a wider support range | 03:42 |
| Dante123 | GringoChapin the key is basically something LIKE this: #EDC4rfv5tgbn | 03:42 |
| orik | the_squircle: I upgraded to 8.10 and now my internet is much slower | 03:42 |
| Dante123 | But that is not the key- just similar | 03:42 |
| the_squircle | Dante123: just leave out the # | 03:42 |
| Rolle | and if your computer is lagging its most likely a ram issue i would assume | 03:42 |
| Dante123 | the first four digits are capitals | 03:42 |
| Rolle | a lot of processes open or such | 03:42 |
| bobbie4 | bye | 03:42 |
| GringoChapin | dante123: well, if you have r's and t's in there, then you are right. It's definitly not hex. | 03:43 |
| the_squircle | orik: I had that too for a few days... but then I just figured out it was for the software mirrors. I picked one closer to me (at a university) then it was all fine | 03:43 |
| arionadouble | should be | 03:43 |
| mikeifying | indygunfreak: ive helped install and get it running before i like the restricted hardware support in ubuntu so im thinking i may uninstall and reinstall with ubuntu wouldnt be much of a stretch lol besides im having huge ammounts of trouble getting flash and java to work on debian | 03:43 |
| mker | mikearr, I think there's a page on the ubuntu site that explains the difference. they're very alike though imo, different theme, some different versions of programs, ubuntu has a little bit more user friendlyness polish. that's about it. | 03:43 |
| arionadouble | #hackers | 03:43 |
| orik | the_squircle: no, i updated fine. now browsing and downloading torrents is slow | 03:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | mikeifying: are you using 64bit Debian? | 03:43 |
| Dante123 | GringoChapin I have many letters past f. Personally I dont think the key is hex....therefore leaving the # sign out is pointless | 03:44 |
| the_squircle | orik: sorry... i'm not sure. try the forums. | 03:44 |
| arionadouble | how do you go to a channel without using the menu | 03:44 |
| ubuntuboy | someone know how to activate autocomplete in opera ? | 03:44 |
| Dante123 | He wouldnt have told me to include it if it was HEX | 03:44 |
| Rolle | /join #channel | 03:44 |
| IndyGunFreak | arionadouble: "/join #channel" no quotes | 03:44 |
| mikeifying | indygunfreak: no its just that its seems that iceweasle doesnt wanna see the plugins | 03:44 |
| GringoChapin | It could still be ascii, and leaving the number out might still work. | 03:44 |
| orik | the_squircle: thanks | 03:44 |
| GringoChapin | It's worth a try at least. | 03:44 |
| IndyGunFreak | mikeifying: well, thats possible, have you tried FF? | 03:44 |
| AmpedAl | anyone know why I can't remote access my SQL DB using navicat? | 03:44 |

| lacita_ | Why can't I get sound unless I put my comp to sleep, and rewake it? My comp is an Lenovo 3000 Y410 running ubuntu 8.04. | 03:45 |
| IndyGunFreak | mikeifying: in my opinion, use ubuntu, cut your teeth, learn the ropes,etc, then move on to Debian | 03:46 |
| mikeifying | indygunfreak: i figured i went from knoppix to ubuntu to windows to debian haha windows blew and knoppix was hard to install lol | 03:46 |
| Fractured | Linux Mint FTW | 03:46 |
| IndyGunFreak | mikeifying: well, ubuntu sounds like it would be for you... | 03:46 |
| the_squircle | IndyGunFreak: i went from opensuse to ubuntu to opensuse to gentoo to debian to opensuse to ubuntu to OS X/ubuntu to windows/OS X/ubuntu... and I think all three made me happy | 03:46 |

| GringoChapin | dante123: That is possible. The only other guess I would have is a transcription error. Also, now that I think about it more, I doubt it is an ascii key, as for 128 bits, I think it should be 22 characters long. | 04:05 |
| hellhound_ | jrib: that is what i thought but i could not think of anything else. i know the shortcuts for firefox and nautilus are the same but trust me for some reason i have it working in firefox but not in nautilus | 04:05 |
| techsupport | not sure how its called, but i heard you can get a virtual ubuntu server box provider | 04:05 |
| techsupport | can anyone recommend a service ? | 04:05 |
| dr_willis | jscinoz, i thought using ip-masqerading was using iptables masq rules... | 04:05 |
| dr_willis | jscinoz, or do you mean a ipmasq command? i dont recall ever seeing that specific command befor | 04:06 |
| Dexi | techsupport: you mean like virtualbox | 04:06 |
| Dexi | ? | 04:06 |
| techsupport | Dexi, not sure | 04:06 |
| Dante123 | GringoChapin I think it is a passphrase | 04:06 |
| jscinoz | dr_willis, one sec i will link you the guide i found | 04:06 |

| jrib | hellhound_: what is your pointer line doing?\ | 04:12 |
| rww | FernandoF: CUPS works fine in Ubuntu 8.10. You're just having problems with it. Unfortunately, nobody seems to know what those problems are, hence nobody replying to you yet. | 04:12 |

| hellhound_ | jrib: "pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 8 9 6 7" i remember now that I used this line for the back and forward to work with my tilt action on the wheel and it works like a charm.... but not for nautilus | 04:13 |
| jscinoz | dr_willis, tested it, it just creates the iptables rule for you and restricts it to subnet for more security | 04:14 |
| FernandoF | urww, nfortunately a lot of other people have same problems ! so it seems I am not alone and it is a 8.10 problem what could mean it does not work fine! | 04:14 |
| jrib | hellhound_: did you make sure you still need it after upgrading to 8.10? | 04:14 |

| Nick_Meister_Lap | my main computer broke all of a sudden | 04:15 |
| hellhound_ | jrib: yes in fact i had to change it for 8.10... my mouse will work without it but not the tilt function and after a long time searching i found that as a resolution | 04:15 |
| Nick_Meister_Lap | it froze during startup | 04:15 |
| jrib | Melik: apt-cache search tiling window manager | 04:15 |
| Nick_Meister_Lap | now when i try to restart | 04:15 |
| FernandoF | uww I could post some addresses of pages with people having same related problems but it would be not fair for all people that are here trying to find a solution | 04:15 |
| kayt | Nick_Meister_Lap: Hey, I think I know how to fix it | 04:15 |
| jrib | hellhound_: k, then just setup xbindkeys or imwheel now | 04:15 |
| Nick_Meister_Lap | i am greeted with GRUB4DOS prompt | 04:15 |

| GringoChapin | dante123: Found a page that talks about how to add wicd to ubuntu. Visit http://wicd.sourceforge.net/download.php and see the section titled "Installing Wicd in Ubuntu" | 04:17 |
| iggykoopa | tulga you can use the livecd to install grub | 04:17 |
| Dante123 | kayt yes | 04:17 |
| Nick_Meister_Lap | but i seriously need help here | 04:17 |
| Tulga | iggykoopa: yes I tried. but not good result :( | 04:17 |
| Nick_Meister_Lap | there is a lot of data on the omputer | 04:17 |
| Nick_Meister_Lap | that i need | 04:17 |
| Madpilot | Just to remind everyone: do NOT give out hazardous commands to people! Ever. | 04:17 |
| Tulga | impossible to install grub while installing ubuntu? | 04:17 |
| Nick_Meister_Lap | :( what do i do? | 04:18 |
| eseven73 | Madpilot: those kinda people are hired by M$ im affraid its not that easy to get rid of them :/ | 04:18 |
| rww | FernandoF: okay. But nevertheless, I and plenty of other people have Cups working perfectly. So hyperbole like "no vailability of cups under this version of UBUNTU had not yet been issued" is unwarrented. | 04:18 |

| cvd-pr | any software to know how manny watss my power supply has? | 04:18 |
| eseven73 | hehe | 04:18 |
| iggykoopa | it should do it automatically but maybe it is having a problem finding your boot partition on the raid array | 04:18 |
| Nick_Meister_Lap | got a grup> promt | 04:18 |
| iggykoopa | you could try the supergrub disk | 04:18 |
| Nick_Meister_Lap | and nothing else | 04:18 |
| Nick_Meister_Lap | grub> i mean | 04:18 |
| Nick_Meister_Lap | 04:19 | |
| rik_ | is possible to boot in to runtime level 3 in ubuntu Im used to just editing the inittab file but I can not seem to find it... | 04:19 |
| jrib | rik_: why? runlevels 2-5 are identical by default | 04:19 |
| aprilhare | cvd-pr, not sure what you're asking; however software generally doesn't care what the power output of your power supply is - however you can with later machines find out what the voltage on your motherboard lines are | 04:19 |
| Tulga | lvm and raid are different? | 04:19 |
| stroyan | dude7064: The normal ubuntu install provides a lot of POSIX standards features. You can get manpages for subset of posix standard commands and libraries from the manpages-posix and manpages-posix-dev packages. | 04:19 |
| iggykoopa | lvm is soft raid, usually when people say raid they mean a hardware raid controller | 04:20 |
| rik_ | jrib: aslong as it ubunutu doesnt boot any xserver utilities it should be fine | 04:20 |
| DiiPhantom | how can i update to new openoffice? | 04:20 |
| rik_ | just dont know how to change the runtime level at all | 04:20 |
| Madpilot | iggykoopa, there's software RAID too, and LVM isn't quite the same | 04:20 |
| cvd-pr | aprilhare, to know i i have a 400wats or 300wats etc.. | 04:20 |
| jrib | rik_: well since 2-5 are identical, runlevel 3 will still load X. Why don't you want it to load X? | 04:21 |
| Nick_Meister_Lap | so nobody knows anything about my problem? | 04:21 |
| cvd-pr | aprilhare, with out opening the pc | 04:21 |
| Nick_Meister_Lap | so many people in this channel :( | 04:21 |
| jrib | !helpme | Nick_Meister_Lap | 04:21 |

| essial | whats wrong with mewshi? borked package tree? | 04:39 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: have you tried medibuntu | 04:39 |
| mewshi | it says " files list file for package `alacarte' contains empty filename | 04:40 |
| mewshi | " | 04:40 |
| * aprilhare throws things at sheepshaver | 04:40 | |
| kgodwin | jp_sf: What specifically on medibuntu? | 04:40 |
| bman | mewshi, what version of ubuintu | 04:40 |
| alexb92 | hey guys, this is the 3rd time ive done the install for ubuntu and i still cant boot up into it | 04:40 |
| essial | alexb: whats the problem | 04:40 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: evil people use medibuntu to solve evil problems, your problems looks evil | 04:40 |
| mewshi | Uh... 8.10, with a *very* select few from 9.04, like firefox -_- | 04:40 |
| mewshi | Oh o.o | 04:40 |
| mewshi | wait >.> | 04:40 |
| kgodwin | jp_sf: That tells me nothing useful unfortunately. | 04:40 |
| bman | thats your problem | 04:41 |
| nickrud | ohhhhh mixed mewshi ? | 04:41 |
| mewshi | maybe if it disable the jaunty repos, it'll be fixed! :D | 04:41 |
| bman | reenable jaunty sources then install gnome-session-canberra | 04:41 |
| aprilhare | joeb3_, if libreadline is already installed, why does it whinge it isn't installed? | 04:41 |
| bman | it is only available on jaunty | 04:41 |
| mewshi | They *are* enabled -_- | 04:41 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: ok redy to follow to the path of the evil people that produce evil things ? | 04:41 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: | 04:41 |
| LSG | Where can i get the latest DivX codec? Totem and VLC seem to be missing something. | 04:41 |
| aprilhare | jp_sf, never felt like moving to Seattle myself | 04:41 |
| Eggbertx | it shoud automatically find it | 04:41 |
| bman | apt-get install gnome-session-canberra | 04:42 |
| Eggbertx | i think | 04:42 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: sudo apt-get purge w32codecs libdvdcss2 | 04:42 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: sudo apt-get clean | 04:42 |
| essial | I don't know if totem uses the auto codec search | 04:42 |
| Eggbertx | totem? | 04:42 |
| mewshi | that doesn't fix it, bman. | 04:42 |
| Eggbertx | is that a code name for a version | 04:42 |
| alexb92 | well ive installed ubuntu 8.10 onto a second hard drisk and it goes through the install fine, when i start the computer it boots into windows and doesnt give me an option for ubuntu | 04:42 |
| essial | I think I remember an issue of it not working on a previous version | 04:42 |
| hobo | 8.04 installed fresh last week, things are going ok so far...my sound card is a realtek ac97 though and apparently they might be detected and not work? this could be because i do not have any sound and im pretty sure its detected or is it not installed? | 04:42 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: are you on 8.10 ? | 04:42 |
| essial | alexb92: do you have two hard drives? | 04:42 |
| bman | mewshi, download it manually from here then : http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/all/gnome-session-canberra/download | 04:42 |
| essial | alexb, PM me | 04:42 |
| kgodwin | jp_sf: 8.04 | 04:43 |
| kgodwin | jp_sf: done btw. | 04:43 |
| mewshi | bman, that isn't the problem! -_- | 04:43 |
| bman | then dpkg -i gnome-session-canberra_0.10-1ubuntu3_all.deb | 04:43 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: then sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/hardy.list --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list | 04:43 |
| bman | the error you posted was a missing package | 04:43 |
| bman | post the right fkn error then | 04:43 |
| kgodwin | jp_sf: did that awhile ago ;) | 04:43 |
| kgodwin | jp_sf: got the 'key' too ;) | 04:43 |
| * Eggbertx prays that the installer will work this time | 04:43 | |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: then sudo apt-get install w32codecs libdvdcss2 | 04:43 |
| mewshi | No, the error posted is a missing entry in the file list -_- | 04:43 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: did you purge already ? | 04:44 |
| kgodwin | yes | 04:44 |

| bman | fdisk /mbr cvd-pr | 04:44 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: so you purged you cleaned then added the medibuntu source ? | 04:44 |
| alexb92 | vistas boot loader is the default loader though and GRUB doesnt appear when i boot | 04:44 |
| kgodwin | jp_sf: w32codecs is not available, but is refered to by another package | 04:44 |
| essial | alexb92: Thats the issue, you installed ubuntu on a non-boot device, so it put the boot loader on that hard drive | 04:44 |
| alexb92 | oh right | 04:45 |
| kgodwin | jp_sf: I said awhile ago I did that when you suggested it. | 04:45 |
| essial | alexb92: when your computer starts up, press F8, or whatever the boot menu hotkey is (at bios) and select the hard drive ubuntu is installed on | 04:45 |
| alexb92 | how do i fix that? | 04:45 |
| essial | it should get you right in :) | 04:45 |
| essial | honestly? Thats how I personally do it | 04:45 |
| essial | I don't like mix-matching my boot loaders | 04:45 |
| alexb92 | oh right | 04:45 |
| cvd-pr | bman, thats for grub in ubuntu? | 04:45 |
| essial | that way I can unplug a drive | 04:45 |
| essial | and it still works fine | 04:45 |
| alexb92 | well i got some software called easybcd | 04:45 |
| hobo | how come i have no sound | 04:45 |
| alexb92 | and i was thinking that might work? | 04:45 |
| mewshi | it's a problem with the alacart package | 04:45 |
| mewshi | how do I fix it? | 04:45 |
| essial | never heard of easybcd | 04:45 |
| essial | but you don't need any helpers | 04:45 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: and vlc is not playing it ? | 04:45 |
| hobo | i got xchat running, but no sound : ( | 04:46 |
| kgodwin | correct | 04:46 |
| alexb92 | ohk | 04:46 |
| tritium | !enter | mewshi, essial | 04:46 |
| ubottu | mewshi, essial: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 04:46 |
| kgodwin | neither is ogle, etc. | 04:46 |
| alexb92 | so theres no way i can add it to the vista bootloader? | 04:46 |
| cvd-pr | bman, Unable to open /mbr | 04:46 |
| marabout_ | help with fixing screen resolution in Hardy please.... | 04:46 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: did you add the w32codecs ? | 04:46 |
| kgodwin | jp_sf: VLC just crashes ;) | 04:46 |
| essial | You can, but you will have to mess with the grub configuration script, as well as change the boot order of your hard drives | 04:46 |
| mewshi | well, what would you recommend I do? | 04:46 |
| kgodwin | jp_sf: Yes...I think I'm just going to give up and use windows for watching this DVD | 04:46 |
| bman | cvd-pr, you just want to erase it? | 04:47 |
| zer0o | is there a chan for web-developing support? | 04:47 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: you don't have a 64x no ? | 04:47 |
| essial | as I said, its easy enough jsut to hit F8 when your pc first starts up, and select the hard drive with the OS you want to boot from | 04:47 |
| mewshi | Anyone? What should I do? | 04:47 |
| cvd-pr | When i see videos in ubuntu the videos look chupy/show , i dont know why | 04:47 |
| cvd-pr | like slow framerate | 04:47 |
| bman | cvd-pr, that has nothing to do ewiht hthe mbr | 04:48 |
| kgodwin | jp_sf: I assume you meant w64codecs heh | 04:48 |
| alexb92 | ohk | 04:48 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: depends of your processor | 04:48 |
| alexb92 | thank you very much | 04:48 |
| cvd-pr | bman, that was another question | 04:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | cvd-pr, HAve you tried turning off effects | 04:48 |
| alexb92 | i will give it a shot now:) | 04:48 |
| essial | see you in ubuntu ;) | 04:48 |
| kgodwin | jp_sf: Yes it is 64bit processor, yes I did 64 codecs | 04:48 |
| LSG | How can i get DivX MPEG-4 Version 5 codecs? | 04:48 |
| \kira | whats the command to install the fusion icon? | 04:48 |
| cvd-pr | Jack_Sparrow, so i have to turn effects everytime i want to view videos? | 04:48 |
| hobo | can anyone tell me how i'd know if my sound was installed correctly? other than that it would play sounds when i try... ? | 04:48 |
| jp_sf | kgodwin: hum no never had such problems sorry | 04:48 |
| mewshi | Anyone have any clue what I should do? | 04:48 |
| essial | hobo: do you have an audigy card? | 04:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | cvd-pr, I am asking if they clear up if you do so | 04:49 |
| marabout_ | Jack_sparrow: hey wanted to thank you for earlier. Finally go the via chrome9 hc igp working. The sudo apt-get update seemed to do the trick THANKS! | 04:49 |
| kgodwin | jp_sf: No one has apparently ;) | 04:49 |
| hobo | essial: no a realtek ac97 | 04:49 |
| marabout_ | **got | 04:49 |
| kgodwin | jp_sf: Well time for Windowsland | 04:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marabout_, Glad you got it going | 04:49 |
| essial | hobo: I know on my card personally, I had to go to the "switches" and uncheck the digital out option to get sound... but generally, if you have a mixer, its detecting your soundcard | 04:49 |
| marabout_ | Jack_Sparrow: what does the 'startx' command do exactly? | 04:50 |
| hobo | essial: i get no sound, apparently, i thought though, it was detected and set up automatically during install of ubuntu, | 04:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marabout_, starts...X | 04:50 |
| essial | hobo: is there a mixer near the clock? | 04:50 |
| \kira | marabout_: it starts the X window manager. It controls stuff like gnome and kde | 04:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marabout_, Not trying to be flip | 04:50 |
| bman | mewshi, get the archive and build it yourself from here : https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alacarte | 04:50 |
| hobo | essial: yes there is | 04:50 |
| mewshi | How do I build it? | 04:50 |
| marabout_ | Jack_Sparrow: duh. thanks | 04:50 |
| essial | hobo: double-click it, and tell me if it shows anything | 04:50 |
| zer0o | is there a chan for web-developing support? | 04:50 |
| cvd-pr | Jack_Sparrow, apparently thats the problem | 04:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | cvd-pr, You can try asking in compiz for the best tweaks for your hardware... | 04:51 |
| essial | hobo: note if it has your soundcard listed, and if there is a dropdown list of multiple sound cards or not | 04:51 |
| marabout_ | Jack-Sparrow: no offense taken. I'm here to learn so I ask q's hope thats allright with everyone. | 04:51 |
| hobo | essial: yes. it shows PCM-2 on the right side, and on the left side it shows speaker both i have maxed with no avail | 04:51 |
| mewshi | bman, how do I build this? | 04:51 |
| LSG | \kira: Try sudo apt-get install fusion-icon | 04:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | marabout_, Not a problem.. | 04:51 |
| asea168 | hello | 04:51 |
| essial | hobo: is there a switches tab? And if so, go there and tell me if theres an option related to "Analog/Digital Output Jack" or the like | 04:51 |
| bman | mewshi, dpkg-buildpackage -S | 04:52 |
| \kira | LSG: nope, tried it. Thanks though. I guess im trying to find the package name | 04:52 |
| marabout_ | !hello | aseal68 | 04:52 |

| LSG | \kira: Does it not work for you if you try it that way? | 04:54 |
| mewshi | Ugh | 04:54 |
| \kira | LSG: try it what way? | 04:54 |
| mewshi | What file do I download, bman? | 04:54 |

| essial | hrm | 04:54 |
| tritium | mewshi: please stay on topic ("ugh" comments are channel spam) | 04:54 |
| LSG | \kira: With sudo apt-get etc... It worked for me. | 04:54 |
| bman | the one for your version either intrepid or jainty | 04:54 |
| asea168 | i run double OS | 04:54 |
| bman | jaunty | 04:54 |

| hobo | essial: there | 04:55 |
| essial | hobo: and select your sound card on each, try selecting ones with ALSA instead of OSS if possible | 04:55 |
| bman | the diff would be upgrading the source from a previous version | 04:56 |
| tritium | bman: what are you having him install? Is it not available in the repos? | 04:56 |

| cvd-pr | any has used supergrubdisk? | 04:57 |
| bman | mewshi, if thats the filename you saved it as yes | 04:57 |
| mewshi | I didn't work | 04:57 |
| hobo | essial: so which one would i choose to test? theres via 8237 twice, then alsa mixer, oss mixer, and pulse sound | 04:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | cvd-pr, Hit or miss with sgr | 04:57 |

| hobo | whatever ones i try seem to not test properly no sound... | 04:58 |
| mewshi | it didn't work, even. What do you recommend now? | 04:58 |
| essial | hobo: you can select each one and press test, it should emit a rather annoying tone :) | 04:58 |
| bman | mewshi, go do a man dkpg and learn how to use it first aka rtfm | 04:58 |
| mewshi | it just brings up a help file | 04:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | cvd-pr, Livecd is the better choice | 04:58 |
| cvd-pr | Jack_Sparrow, sgr? | 04:58 |

| Eggbertx | apex? | 04:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | cvd-pr, Super Grub Repair CD | 04:58 |

| mewshi | Ugh. Well, if he gave me a command that didn't bring up a help dialogue, I wouldn't have sworn. So, if anyone can tell me how to ACTUALLY this to work, feel free to share. | 05:00 |
| bman | i told you long ago mewshi you just want someone to do it for you | 05:00 |
| mewshi | No, I have no problem doing it, just give me the proper command | 05:00 |
| mewshi | you gave me the WRONG command, obviously | 05:01 |
| cvd-pr | bman, i dont see anything to fix grub | 05:01 |
| essial | hobo: typically if it doesn't work it will give you an error. If it says its playing but you hear nothing do this: Go back to the mixer, click "Preferences", and mark anything categorized as "switches" or "options", as well as anything with "PCM" or "Wave" in it | 05:01 |

| johninlex | how do you disable a atheros driver in a tty anyone know | 05:14 |
| * bman nods | 05:14 | |
| niriven | compsman, thats because something is locking our stream. everything has to go through your sound proxy or alsa directly. | 05:14 |
| Eggbertx | unmount? | 05:14 |
| niriven | compsman, What are you trying to run? | 05:15 |
| epoxy | johninlex, what do you mean "disable" | 05:15 |
| epoxy | johninlex, make the interface go down? | 05:15 |

| compsman | niriven: teamspeak and wine (WoW) | 05:15 |

| cvd-pr | how to pastebin using terminal | 05:15 |
| tritium | johninlex: blacklist the module | 05:15 |
| Eggbertx | how? | 05:15 |

| dr_willis | cvd-pr, install/use the 'pastebinit' command | 05:15 |
| epoxy | cvd-pr, lynx? :) | 05:15 |
| Eggbertx | mker: how do i use alternet install cd | 05:15 |
| johninlex | well I am trying to use ndiswrapper to fix my wireless problem, | 05:15 |
| niriven | compsman, make sure wine is set to use ALSA, not OSS. | 05:15 |
| bazhang | cvd-pr, then command pastebinit | 05:15 |
| Fudge | install along side windows i found to be a great option since im blind and the system was setup for me and then I just logged in and had speech as specified | 05:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Eggbertx, Or grab the gparted livecd | 05:16 |
| corey | i need to insert this string :: AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","telstra.bigpond" :: and it says to do it like this ::: configure the modem with AT commands, such as AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","telstra.bigpond" and store the changes with AT&W ::: | 05:16 |
| mker | Eggbertx, google ubuntu alternate install and you'll find it :) | 05:16 |
| johninlex | and there seams nothing is going to work | 05:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Night all... gotta run | 05:16 |
| Eggbertx | ok | 05:16 |
| Eggbertx | whats the difference? | 05:16 |
| compsman | niriven: will double check.. but is /dev/dps oss? | 05:16 |
| epoxy | johninlex, ok. well to think a question is "over peoples" heads.. when no one understands wtf you are trying to ask.. is retarded. | 05:16 |
| bazhang | Eggbertx, the alternate uses a text-based installer, no live cd environment | 05:16 |
| Eggbertx | oh | 05:16 |
| Eggbertx | like command line? | 05:17 |
| niriven | compsman, no thats your sound device. Just startup wineconf or whatever it is and check the sound driver. | 05:17 |
| mker | Eggbertx, but still very easy! not command line, you just press arrow buttons and stuff. menus | 05:17 |
| bazhang | Eggbertx, not that , but ncurses based | 05:17 |
| epoxy | johninlex, unload the ath_5k or what ever kernel module you are using.. maybe. | 05:17 |
| compsman | niriven: alsa is the onlyone checked. | 05:17 |
| LSG | Can anyone help me get some video codecs please? | 05:17 |
| Eggbertx | would i still be able to talk on irc so u can walk me through? | 05:17 |
| niriven | compsman, ok make sure teamspeak is using alsa or esd. | 05:17 |
| bazhang | LSG, what have you installed already | 05:17 |
| johninlex | ok i will try again to unload but it wont work | 05:18 |
| roger_ | LSG, do you have the restricted extras installed | 05:18 |
| compsman | niriven: teamspeak wants a cmd line no a check box.. my sound card is huge on controls | 05:18 |
| bman | Eggbertx, sudo apt-get install irssi ; irssi irc.freenode.org | 05:18 |
| Eggbertx | ? | 05:18 |
| Eggbertx | whats that | 05:18 |
| bman | irc from tty | 05:18 |
| bazhang | Eggbertx, that is a chat client | 05:18 |
| Eggbertx | that can work with text based installer? | 05:19 |
| Eggbertx | or while its running? | 05:19 |
| LSG | bazhang, roger_: I have installed restricted extras but i still seem to be missing DivX MPEG-4 Version 5 (since i can't play a video file encoded with that one | 05:19 |
| bazhang | LSG, w32codecs? | 05:19 |
| niriven | compsman, well look around. You have a software mixing card, which means, it can only have one channel gonig through it, it wont mix on hardware. If one thing is piping directly to the card, it will lock it for everything else. Tahts what a sound proxy (ubuntu has puluse audio, and alsa has dix for direct alsa calls). | 05:19 |
| LSG | bazhang: I don't think i have those installed. How do i get them? | 05:19 |
| valros | Whats better for compatability between windows and linux, FAT32 or NTFS? or does it just not matter | 05:19 |
| bazhang | medibuntu LSG | 05:20 |
| bazhang | valros, the latter | 05:20 |
| sloopy | valros, ntfs | 05:20 |
| roger_ | LSG, i think the mplayer homepage has win32 codecs there for download | 05:20 |
| valros | k | 05:20 |
| compsman | niriven: is there a way i can solve it? and thanks for explaining. | 05:20 |
| bazhang | !medibuntu | 05:20 |
| ubottu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 05:20 |
| bman | Eggbertx, yes just hit alt-f1 or alt-f2 and log in again and run that | 05:20 |
| bazhang | LSG, just need to install the package no need for the repos | 05:20 |
| Eggbertx | ok | 05:21 |
| niriven | compsman, Well find out whats locking dsp :) | 05:21 |
| techsupport | how can i set my ip manually ? | 05:21 |
| bazhang | roger_, we recommend they get them from medibuntu | 05:21 |
| niriven | compsman, are you running flash in the background too or just teamspeak and wine? | 05:21 |
| compsman | niriven: can u tell me how to find out | 05:21 |
| valros | what packages is needed for gparted to format in ntfs? | 05:21 |
| valros | are* | 05:21 |
| compsman | niriven: firefox with flash sometimes | 05:21 |
| corey | plz help with my problem anyone who is free | 05:22 |
| LSG | bazhang, roger_: I'll try medibuntu. I'm getting w32codecs right now. | 05:22 |
| mker | valros, go with ntfs if yu're planning on having files as large as 4gb. actually I think ntfs is pretty darn well supported by ubuntu, so unless someone tells you different go with it :) | 05:22 |
| bazhang | corey, ask the channel | 05:22 |
| niriven | compsman, no i mean when it doesnt work, your just running wine and teamspeak? | 05:22 |
| nathanhelp | corey: just ask. :) someone who is available will answer if they can/have enough knowledge of the subject. | 05:22 |
| roger_ | LSG, you will have to put them in the folder /etc/win32 i believe for the movie players to use them, unless you change the path in the players prefs | 05:22 |
| corey | i did | 05:23 |
| roger_ | LSG, i think realplayer needs them in /etc/codecs folder | 05:23 |
| compsman | niriven: if i start wine first sound is there then ts will not get sound same as otherway arround | 05:23 |
| nathanhelp | ah. Ok. Can you please repeat it? I missed it. | 05:23 |
| valros | Ive had this before, gparted doesnt have ntfs support, i think all i did last time was install a package from the repositories | 05:23 |

| dr_willis | valros, ya may wan tto check the wiki pages on how hard drives work. :) basicially its rounding up to a physical aspect of the hard drive. which can vary from one hd to another. | 05:27 |
| bazhang | Sifre, check in synaptic or apt-cache search znc | 05:27 |
| niriven | compsman, close out of everything but pidgin. try to im someone, (yourself), and get sound. Let me know when you do that. | 05:28 |
| woody86_ | bazhang- thanks :) | 05:28 |
| dr_willis | valros, proberly best to round up. | 05:28 |
| === izibi_ is now known as izibi | ||
| compsman | niriven: firefox refusing to close | 05:28 |
| niriven | compsman, killall firefox | 05:28 |
| bman | killall firefox | 05:29 |
| bman | laggg | 05:29 |
| mondayrocks | Don't kill things. | 05:29 |
| terryx | some of my programs are crashing in ubuntu, anybody knows why....? | 05:29 |
| compsman | niriven: bman thank you:P | 05:29 |
| lacita | thou shall not kill. | 05:29 |
| valros | were just keeping the foxes from overpopulating :) | 05:29 |
| Kyprioth1 | Are they .exe programs? | 05:29 |
| bazhang | Sifre, sudo apt-get install znc | 05:29 |
| mker | terryx, probably not based on the information you've given so far. more info! | 05:29 |
| compsman | niriven: i have sound to my own im self | 05:30 |
| terryx | mker, like firefox, virtualbox, epiphany are crashing itself in random time | 05:30 |
| LSG | nickrud: Was it /etc/lib/w32 or /usr/lib/w32? | 05:30 |
| Kyprioth1 | Man, it is so cool how so many of you guys do this for free. | 05:30 |
| nickrud | LSG, /usr/lib/win32 | 05:30 |
| lacita | that's the idea | 05:30 |
| Kyprioth1 | Thank all of you. | 05:30 |
| niriven | compsman, ok, start firefox, try mixing flash (youtube) and pidgin sounds. | 05:30 |
| compsman | kk | 05:30 |
| roger_ | realplayer will need /usr/lib/codecs if you use realplayer | 05:31 |
| lacita | !cookie | kyprioth1 | 05:31 |
| ubottu | kyprioth1: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 05:31 |
| Quagmire | I'm running into a small problem getting the correct codecs installed for my 8.10 install. I have only loaded the two gstreamer plugins that were suggested when I tried to play an mp3, but then again ...I did run all those updates that ubuntu wanted run when I got it up and running, so that is the problem. When I tried to install "Ubuntu restricted extras" it gave me an error that said I had a conflict. | 05:31 |
| mker | terryx, have you always had this problem? when did it start? did you do anything before it started? | 05:31 |
| Kyprioth1 | lol | 05:31 |
| Kyprioth1 | I like cookies | 05:31 |
| ttmrichter | OK, let's try again: http://paste.ubuntu.com/100755/ contains some lines from dmesg that I can't quite figure out. I grok that a USB device disconnected and then reconnected, but I don't see any information other than a cryptic "EMI?" to tell me why this would be happening. Can anybody point me to some clues? | 05:31 |
| Kyprioth1 | Not the virus kind. | 05:31 |
| Kyprioth1 | lol | 05:31 |
| compsman | niriven: i have both sounds mixing | 05:31 |
| lacita | just not the IE kind | 05:31 |
| lacita | ;) | 05:31 |
| LSG | nickrud: Well they seem to have been installed properly, maybe these weren't the codecs i needed? | 05:31 |
| niriven | compsman, ok start wine, see if you can mix all three | 05:31 |
| bazhang | Quagmire, how did you install the first codecs and from where | 05:31 |
| compsman | niriven: will do | 05:32 |
| nickrud | LSG, what are you trying to play? That's the most complete package of codecs available | 05:32 |
| terryx | no...just clean install (no dual), and problem occur from start from mozilla, when i start mozilla from terminal its closes after sometime and error in terminal is segmentation fault... | 05:32 |
| nathanhelp | corey: what is an APN? | 05:32 |
| jinja-sheep | kinja-sheep: Testing you out. | 05:32 |
| LSG | nickrud: A movie in divx format. | 05:32 |
| Quagmire | bazhang I tried to play a mp3 and it suggested the 2 gstreamers and I installed them and the mp3 played just fine | 05:32 |
| nickrud | LSG, did you try playing it in mplayer? | 05:33 |
| jinja-sheep | kinja-sheep: Do you read me? | 05:33 |
| bazhang | Quagmire, please paste.ubuntu.com with the command and errors you are getting to install the extras package | 05:33 |
| corey | nathanhelp: im not completely sure i believe it is an secure address for telstra communications | 05:33 |
| nickrud | jinja-sheep, that' wouldn't be a bot you're talking to would it | 05:33 |
| LSG | nickrud: Isn't that Totem? | 05:33 |
| Ryan_Delaney | I love ubuntu =) don't we all love ubuntu? | 05:33 |
| bazhang | !give me a test | 05:34 |
| * DeadJones gives me some unlocked Grenades *BOOM* | 05:34 | |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about give me a test | 05:34 |
| lacita | yea | 05:34 |
| Quagmire | bazhang but when I first got ubuntu up it wanted to install a bunch of updates 216 to be precise | 05:34 |
| mker | LSG, mplayer is another program | 05:34 |
| nickrud | LSG, no, it's a different player. | 05:34 |
| compsman | niriven: all three mixing:P | 05:34 |
| nathanhelp | corey: do you know if its similar to VPN? | 05:34 |
| terryx | mker, no...just clean install (no dual), and problem occur from start from mozilla, when i start mozilla from terminal its closes after sometime and error in terminal is segmentation fault... | 05:34 |
| niriven | compsman, Ok, start teamspeak, see if you can get all 4 to mix. I bet teamspeak is locking dsp. | 05:34 |
| Dwade09 | hi all | 05:34 |
| corey | nathanhelp: no sorry | 05:34 |
| compsman | kk | 05:34 |
| Quagmire | bazhang the errors on on another machine, so I will have to type it out by hand | 05:34 |
| jinja-sheep | nickrud: Hmm. No. I'm trying to figure out if XChat have the ability to display all messages that are particularly for me on the separate tab rather than in this channel or any other channel. | 05:34 |
| bazhang | Quagmire, could you summarize then | 05:35 |
| compsman | niriven: no ssound on TS(Teaamssspeaak):( | 05:35 |
| corey | um look at this webpage http://quozl.linux.org.au/bp3-usb/ and search for APN it is the second result | 05:35 |
| nickrud | LSG, I think you need to install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse to get totem to use the codecs you just downloaded | 05:35 |
| LSG | nickrud, mker: Then no | 05:35 |
| roger_ | teamspeak has bad habit of using more than what it needs | 05:35 |
| nathanhelp | Corey: I assume you are trying to get a wireless network running over 3g network? | 05:35 |
| Dwade09 | i have a problem i went to see how much my comp has in memory and it shows me two sticks of mem via 2X 256mb ram, i open it up and there is really only one stick of ram 1X256mb how is this? | 05:35 |
| LSG | nickrud: I'll try that | 05:35 |
| corey | modem is not properly configured, such as incorrect APN in the AT+CGDCONT profile | 05:35 |
| niriven | compsman, ok, its locking dsp. are you using the native linux client? | 05:35 |
| corey | yes | 05:35 |
| compsman | roger_: what a great solving? | 05:35 |
| cplab2-58 | hey can anyone tell me how to fix broken packages | 05:35 |
| keith112123 | how do i bring up the run app thing | 05:36 |
| corey | what is the AT+CGDCONT profile and how to i edit it | 05:36 |
| compsman | niriven: i'm using the one that ubuntu builded | 05:36 |
| terryx | mker...?????? | 05:36 |
| nathanhelp | corey: do you know what modem you have? and how do you know it's not correctly configured? | 05:36 |
| Quagmire | Cannot install Ubuntu restricted extras ....This App conflicts with other installed software. To install Ubuntu restricted extras the conflicting software must be rtemoved. Switch to the Synaptic package manager to resolve this conflict. | 05:36 |
| niriven | compsman, look for configuration, see fi you can set it up to use ALSA instead of oss, or ESD, whatever. | 05:36 |
| keith112123 | cplab2-58 uninstall and re-install the package, that should work | 05:36 |
| cplab2-58 | hey can anyone tell me how to fix broken packages | 05:36 |
| mker | terryx, sorry I don't know. Try the forums maybe. | 05:36 |
| bazhang | Quagmire, then best remove them via synaptic and try again | 05:36 |
| Quagmire | sorry I forgot your nick at the start | 05:36 |
| LSG | nickrud: Eh...no change. I'll try to find Mplayer before i give up | 05:37 |
| Quagmire | but which ones? | 05:37 |
| corey | it should have a average speed of 1mb or higher instead it is 50kb or lower | 05:37 |
| cplab2-58 | keith112123; i have no idea which packages are broken... how will i know that | 05:37 |
| Sifre | bazhang no program:) | 05:37 |
| Bangers | How do I add a user with a specific password at the command line, via a script | 05:37 |
| joeb3_ | jinja-sheep, look at preferences-sounds. You can Highlight a message for your nick and assign a sound to it. | 05:37 |
| Bangers | i dont want to type the password | 05:37 |
| nathanhelp | corey: so its actually working correct? | 05:37 |
| Sifre | znc user del/and | 05:37 |
| Sifre | ok | 05:37 |
| bazhang | Quagmire, synaptic will give more info | 05:37 |
| nathanhelp | corey: just slowly? | 05:37 |
| compsman | niriven: /Dev/dsp (oss) | 05:37 |
| niriven | compsman, yup thats the problem :) | 05:37 |
| bazhang | Sifre, sudo apt-get install znc (from the terminal not add/remove) | 05:37 |
| jinja-sheep | joeb3_: I see it. It wouldn't be useful if I'm away for n time. | 05:37 |
| compsman | wat should i do:P | 05:37 |
| corey | yep it connects and work it is just the speed to alot lower then it should be | 05:38 |
| nickrud | LSG, one last issue: if the divx is protected by DRM, linux won't play it | 05:38 |
| niriven | Comet, I dont nkow how teamspeak works, do you see any alsa or esd options | 05:38 |
| compsman | i can type anything in the custom ssound boxx:P | 05:38 |
| Quagmire | bazhang I have it open now what? | 05:38 |
| nathanhelp | corey: where abouts are you and where are the websites you are trying to connect to? | 05:38 |
| corey | yea very | 05:38 |
| keith112123 | how do i bring up the run app box | 05:38 |
| bazhang | Quagmire, mark ubuntu-restricted-extras for installation and apply | 05:38 |
| niriven | compsman, i dont know how teamspeak works, do you see any alsa or esd options | 05:38 |
| bazhang | keith112123, alt f2 | 05:38 |
| lacita | keith112123: the terminal? | 05:38 |
| |c0mmissar| | been popping in & out w/this question. I'm trying to s-video twin screen ubuntu. I have an NVIDIA 6200 OC card. my tty1 cl works fine. x-server shows no signal on my tv, but is fine on the monitor. gui nvidia-settings doesn't work either | 05:39 |
| corey | ok i used this on a windows computer and from an USA site i got a download speed of 200 put it onto linux and it has a top download speed of 50kb to 3b from the same site | 05:39 |
| lacita | corey: are you using a restricted driver? | 05:40 |
| Quagmire | bazhang ah HA | 05:40 |
| niriven | compsman, looks like teamspeak uses oss, cant configure, you have two options. apt-get alsa-oss and start with aoss teamspeak or, use teamspeak in wine. | 05:40 |
| compsman | niriven: i can use the the defualt (/Dev/dsp(oss) Defualt Network (8780:L) or other i type the ssound device loc.. | 05:40 |
| nathanhelp | corey: once or constantly (over the space of a few months) | 05:40 |
| ChrisDavaz | Does anyone know if ATI cards can do TwinView the same as NVidia? I had an NVidia card and there was a really awesome GUI Configuration for it. Is there any such for ATI? | 05:40 |
| Quagmire | bazhang Thats just WAY too simple BLUSH | 05:40 |
| bazhang | Quagmire, you fixed it? | 05:40 |
| LSG | nickrud, mker: I don't think it has any kind of protection. However, Mplayer DOES work! It's a mystery why Totem or VLC wouldn't play it correctly, but at least i can watch it now. | 05:41 |
| maxsiya | Depends: libxml2-dev but it is not going to be installed | 05:41 |
| maxsiya | who can help me ? | 05:41 |
| compsman | niriven: so /Dev/dsp (ordsp1 i think my front panel plugs)? | 05:41 |
| bazhang | maxsiya, do what | 05:41 |
| maxsiya | libxml2-dev but it is not going to be installed | 05:41 |
| corey | no there is no linux driver for this device but it has had a driver added to the linux kernel itself, read this to find out more::: http://quozl.linux.org.au/bp3-usb/ | 05:41 |
| Quagmire | bazhang I think I'm well on teh way ...it will take a little bit for everything to finish | 05:41 |
| maxsiya | who can help me ? | 05:41 |
| LSG | nickrud, mker: Thank you both for all your help, i greatly appreciate it | 05:41 |
| corey | constantly | 05:42 |
| nickrud | LSG, one last player: xine-ui is the packagename, xine is the executable. You sometimes need to try all 4 :) | 05:42 |
| cplab2-58 | keith112123; i have no idea which packages are broken... how will i know that | 05:42 |
| niriven | compsman, ? Nothing to do with mixing, dont chang ethat configuration. Either apt-get install alsa-oss and start teamspeak with aoss teamspeak or, run windows teamspeak in wine to get the mixing there. | 05:42 |
| cplab2-58 | keith112123; i have no idea which packages are broken... how will i know that and fix the packages | 05:42 |
| compsman | niriven: i will try " sudo apt-get alsa-oss " | 05:42 |
| mker | LSG, yeah, I keep all three around for those weird files. great that you solved it! | 05:42 |
| niriven | compsman, ok. | 05:42 |
| LSG | nickrud: Haha, i'll get that one too just in case! | 05:42 |
| niriven | compsman, let me know what happens | 05:42 |
| LSG | nickrud, mker: Thanks again, i'm off to finally watch it now. Good night! | 05:43 |
| nathanhelp | corey: what version of linux are you using? | 05:43 |
| cjs | What is the wrapper program used to run things like synaptic that asks for your password to perform administrative tasks? | 05:43 |
| corey | ubuntu 8.10 | 05:43 |
| techsupport | how can i prevent ubuntu server from turning the monitor off ? | 05:43 |
| roger_ | |c0mmissar|, type nvidia-settings in a console and see if that pops up the gui | 05:43 |
| compsman | sudo apt-get alsa-oss invaalided command | 05:43 |
| bazhang | compsman, need an install | 05:44 |
| compsman | install!! | 05:44 |
| compsman | lol | 05:44 |
| compsman | i figured | 05:44 |
| compsman | :P | 05:44 |
| cjs | Or, failing that, where I can I find the menu files so that I can look this up? (I.e., figure out what System / Administration / Synaptic Package Manager really runs.) | 05:44 |
| FloodBot2 | compsman: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:44 |
| terryx | some of my programs are crashing in ubuntu, anybody knows why....? | 05:44 |
| bazhang | cjs, dpkg? | 05:44 |
| compsman | oops sorry everyone*shame on me:(* | 05:45 |
| bazhang | terryx, how much ram, which apps | 05:45 |
| Quagmire | bazhang helping others can be a very satisfying feeling. I'm a mod at another irc spot that has nothing to do with Ubuntu, but it is a very good feeling when I know I've helped people, but the thing that always feels good is when someone says Thank You. and so now I'll say Thanks to you! | 05:45 |
| cjs | bazhang: Ah, that should be able to tell me where a menu file was added or changed? | 05:45 |
| bazhang | Quagmire, glad you fixed it | 05:45 |
| compsman | niriven: i installed it | 05:45 |

| nickrud | jinja-sheep, please do that in another channel, maybe create one of your own | 05:47 |
| bazhang | terryx, what is inside vbox; how many ff addons and which ones | 05:47 |
| Paddy_EIRE | faileas, happy for you ^_^ | 05:47 |
| faileas | Paddy_EIRE: kinda, it works over NAS, and presumably a local drive. i need to test it further though | 05:47 |
| corey | hang on i will contact telstra and see wat they say | 05:47 |
| jinja-sheep | nickrud: I'm not flooding. This is something I say occasionally. I'm done with the setup tho. ;) | 05:47 |
| corey | thanks for your help | 05:47 |

| Paddy_EIRE | faileas, yes it seems like a very powerful application any way | 05:47 |
| niriven | compsman, sorry, i disabled my network by accident, any update? | 05:47 |
| niriven | compsman, aoss teamspeak, yeah | 05:48 |
| cjs | bazhang: I want to set up my fvwm menu to run synaptic, but give me that darn prompt, instead of just coming up with "you cannot perform admin tasks." | 05:48 |
| nathanhelp | telstra might no be able to answer your questions adequatly | 05:48 |
| nickrud | jinja-sheep, glad you're done, but I do class it as offtopic :) | 05:48 |
| compsman | niriven: i tryed aoss teamspeak no sound coming to me but maybe output? | 05:48 |
| faileas | Paddy_EIRE: lol. precisely why i have been trying to make it work for two years. and when i do, i'll probably need to do a howto for it ;) | 05:48 |
| terryx | bazhang, when i open mozilla in terminal, after sometime mozilla closes itself and terminal says segmentatio fault... | 05:48 |
| bazhang | jinja-sheep, take it elsewhere (NOT here) | 05:48 |
| roger_ | |c0mmissar|, i have a 6200 card as well and had problems with 177.x drivers and i fell back to the 173.x drivers and all is well, other than that, sorry | 05:48 |
| ziroday | cjs: tried doing gksudo synaptic? | 05:48 |
| Paddy_EIRE | faileas, hehe.. hopefully you have been taking notes? | 05:48 |
| cjs | bazhang: Anyway, thanks you gave me exactly what I needed. /usr/share/menu/synaptic contains 'command="/usr/bin/gksu /usr/sbin/synaptic"'. | 05:48 |
| niriven | compsman, ? | 05:48 |
| compsman | niriven: if u like i can pm u my servers ip? | 05:48 |
| bazhang | terryx, why are using it in terminal; and please answer all my other questions first | 05:49 |
| faileas | Paddy_EIRE: yes. the very first thing is, the ubuntu official repo version of mondo is borked. the repo one MAY be borked. thats not very promising ;p | 05:49 |
| niriven | compsman, i dont have teamspeak :( | 05:49 |
| Quagmire | bazhang I'm not so sure I'm done just yet ..I tried to open the dvd and it started to play, but hung up on the FBI screen ...I'm assuming that I still need more in the way of codecs? | 05:49 |
| Paddy_EIRE | faileas, I look forward to reading a good mondo howto.. fit for human consumption.. | 05:49 |
| niriven | compsman, and im not running ubuntu | 05:49 |
| faileas | Paddy_EIRE: will do. | 05:49 |
| cjs | ziroday: Thanks. Though I like knowing where these menu files are, now.... | 05:49 |
| bazhang | Quagmire, libdvdcss2 from medibuntu.org (just the package not the repo) | 05:49 |
| compsman | niriven: wat u on? ts is crossplatformed | 05:49 |
| terryx | before virtualbox, i thought the problem is only with mozilla, after installing virtualbox, it also closes itself after sometime, and i don;t open mozilla in terminal all time, somebody says that it shows me the error thats why/... | 05:50 |
| niriven | compsman, gentoo | 05:50 |
| terryx | bazhang | 05:50 |
| ziroday | cjs: don't know anything about that wm. Sorry | 05:50 |
| niriven | compsman, so its still blocking? | 05:50 |
| |c0mmissar| | roger_ thanks I never tried that one, did u use it from the repository or the website? | 05:50 |
| Quagmire | from either synaptic or the other place? | 05:50 |
| cjs | BTW, while everybody here is so helpful, anybody familiar with the new way of dealing with session management in 8.10, as opposed to 8.04? I'm running fvwm under a gnome session (instead of metacity), and it's been a world of pain.... | 05:51 |
| compsman | niriven: well my ts not disabling my mic anor sound.. | 05:51 |
| ziroday | bazhang: is that still the way you're meant to do it? The wiki says to download libdvdread3 and run a script from that | 05:51 |
| bazhang | terryx, you need to answer my questions precisely: what is the host/guest in vbox, what exact addons for firefox, why running ff from terminal and paste.ubuntu.com with the error message | 05:51 |
| exmachina | anyone here familiar with kexec? | 05:51 |
| compsman | niriven: used to mute all my devices befor aoss | 05:51 |
| bazhang | ziroday, good point | 05:51 |
| niriven | compsman, ah, its probably working then :) | 05:51 |

| niriven | compsman, run both of those commands | 05:53 |
| techsupport | how can i prevent ubuntu server from turning the monitor off ? | 05:53 |
| bobbie4 | how do I prevent the 'cd-rom' of my USB GSM modem from auto-mounting. Every time I plug it in the 'cd-rom' mounts automatically and then I have to 'eject' it before the computer can see the modem. Any ideas? | 05:54 |
| terryx | bazhang, first day, first start on my ubuntu, i open firefox..goto youtube.com, the video was not opening its says to download/install flash play. and take me to website and then i download/install flash player.. | 05:54 |
| compsman | nothing hqappens | 05:54 |
| compsman | niriven: nothing happens | 05:54 |
| Quagmire | bazhang my computer appears to have hung ...remember that I have 2 pcs, the one I'm on here and the ubuntu pc | 05:54 |
| jinja-sheep | What's the correct command for pastebinit ? | 05:54 |
| niriven | compsman, did you run both of those? | 05:55 |
| bazhang | jinja-sheep, command pastebinit | 05:55 |
| Quagmire | I believe there is a command that can force programs to quit | 05:55 |
| bazhang | jinja-sheep, or cat some file | pastebinit | 05:55 |
| compsman | -bash: /proc/asound/card0/pcm0c/oss: Permission denied root@compsman-desktop:~# | 05:55 |
| jinja-sheep | bazhang: I tried the second one (pipe). It was taking too long. | 05:56 |
| bazhang | compsman, why are you root | 05:56 |
| ziroday | Quagmire: you can do pkill <program> or killall <program> or if you know the PID then kill -9 <pid> | 05:56 |
| compsman | niriven: i even used sudo -i | 05:56 |
| compsman | niriven: i used sudo -i | 05:56 |
| niriven | bazhang, We are trying to fix the fact that teamspeak uses oss and locks his dsp device for everythign else... | 05:56 |
| nomingzi | starting from what version of ubuntu that it come with AppArmor/SELinux ? | 05:56 |
| Quagmire | I found the problem guys | 05:56 |
| bazhang | !apparmor | 05:57 |
| ubottu | For information about the AppArmor security framework employed in Ubuntu (since Gutsy Gibbon), see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppArmor | 05:57 |
| bazhang | nomingzi, gutsy | 05:57 |
| terryx | hazhang...u still with me????? | 05:58 |
| Quagmire | ziroday an you tell me more about the pkill? | 05:58 |
| grayhane | On a machine with one sata and one ied drive how can I choose which drive is the master ? | 05:58 |
| bazhang | terryx, that is not the way to install flash | 05:58 |
| Noxz_ | gnome-sound-recorder tells me my preferences are incorrect, go to the auio from system->preferences and correct them, but they are correct, using OSS | 05:58 |
| cjs | grayhane: Usually it's a BIOS setting. | 05:58 |
| terryx | so...what i do | 05:58 |
| niriven | compsman, echo 'teamspeak 0 0 direct' > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss | 05:58 |
| niriven | compsman, anything? | 05:58 |
| bazhang | terryx, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 05:58 |
| cjs | grayhane: If you can do it at all. | 05:58 |
| terryx | should i do it now...?bazhang | 05:58 |
| bazhang | terryx, also install flashblock | 05:59 |
| ziroday | Quagmire: erm its pretty much pkill <commandname> but if it can't find a direct match it won't kill anything. The best way (but longest) is to do ps aux | grep <programname> get the pid and then do kill -9 <pid> | 05:59 |
| terryx | bazhang, now? | 05:59 |
| grayhane | cjae, Thanks, I looked in BIOS first but no entry for that, perhaps it will be when I put the drive in. | 05:59 |
| bazhang | terryx, try flashblock first | 05:59 |
| compsman | niriven: -bash: /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss: Permission denied | 05:59 |

| niriven | compsman, ok lets stick with aoss then, it should work with that.. | 06:00 |
| bazhang | keith112123, the latest version? you need to get the wine repos for that | 06:00 |
| CoUrPsE|DeAd | Bangers, passwd account-name | 06:00 |
| keith112123 | how do i do that | 06:00 |
| keith112123 | whats the command | 06:00 |
| Bangers | CoUrPsE|DeAd: errr but then it'll prompt for the password | 06:00 |
| bazhang | terryx, its a ff addon gotten from mozilla and installed from within ff | 06:00 |
| CoUrPsE|DeAd | yes. | 06:01 |
| CoUrPsE|DeAd | u want to do it on one line? | 06:01 |
| bazhang | keith112123, add the repo then update and install | 06:01 |
| terryx | bazhang, sudo apt-get install flashblock...i do it now? | 06:01 |
| bazhang | terryx, no | 06:01 |

| ubottu | Quagmire, please see my private message | 06:01 |
| terryx | bazhang..now what i do right now? | 06:01 |
| bazhang | terryx, please pay attention; its a ff addon from mozilla site | 06:01 |
| terryx | ok | 06:01 |
| compsman | niriven: i confirm my mic working but no incoming:( | 06:01 |
| niriven | compsman, can you start with aoss teamspeak again and just see fi you can hear streaming sound from someone who is talking | 06:02 |
| CoUrPsE|DeAd | Bangers, useradd --password password-here account-name | 06:02 |
| terryx | i understand..its a firefox addon from mozilla site | 06:02 |
| terryx | bazhang | 06:02 |
| bazhang | terryx, google flashblock and it will give you link to go to | 06:02 |
| terryx | bazhang. ok | 06:02 |
| niriven | compsman, well might be some setting issues then, look around in teamspeak and turn up volumnes, etc. | 06:02 |
| bazhang | terryx, then you install from within ff and restart ff | 06:02 |
| compsman | niriven: noone is on my ts atm | 06:02 |
| compsman | niriven: my wine sound just disappeared:s | 06:03 |
| bazhang | terryx, if that does not do it, then you need to uninstall the flash you installed and get the plugin from repos | 06:03 |
| niriven | compsman, :( | 06:03 |
| Bangers | thanks | 06:03 |
| terryx | bazhang, is this fine?.. http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/flashblock | 06:03 |
| CoUrPsE|DeAd | np. | 06:03 |
| niriven | compsman, why not just run teamspeak in wine :) I bet your playing WoW? :) | 06:04 |
| CoUrPsE|DeAd | Bangers, Type useradd to see more options. | 06:04 |
| compsman | niriven: pidgin still mixing | 06:04 |
| bazhang | terryx, yep that will do it | 06:04 |
| compsman | niriven: and firefox youtube | 06:04 |
| Noxz_ | I have constant input of my microphone to output, what is a real fix for this, not a common one like alsamixer(even though I use oss) | 06:04 |
| niriven | compsman, yeah not sure what to do then, sorry :( | 06:04 |
| terryx | bazhang...which one of 3 http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/flashblock | 06:04 |
| CoUrPsE|DeAd | Noxz_, You mean u can constantly hear your mic? | 06:05 |
| compsman | wine ts off my win xp be onk? | 06:05 |
| Noxz_ | Yes | 06:05 |
| terryx | bazhang, hardy, intrepid, jaunty? | 06:05 |
| bazhang | terryx, whatever sudo apt-get install flashblock installs for you; are you on intrepid? | 06:05 |
| niriven | compsman, should be ok | 06:05 |
| terryx | bazhang, i don't know... | 06:05 |
| CoUrPsE|DeAd | Noxz_, Mute your mic, a mic never stops reciving data, it just streams it with apps accessing it. | 06:05 |
| bazhang | terryx, just run that command | 06:05 |
| Noxz_ | hrrrm | 06:05 |
| CoUrPsE|DeAd | Muting your mic will stop all output of your mic to your own speakers. | 06:05 |
| compsman | Unable to read extra attributes: "Cache\Survey.mpq" | 06:05 |
| compsman | deom wine | 06:05 |
| bazhang | terryx, lsb_release -a for version | 06:06 |
| Noxz_ | well, second, gnome-sound-recorder tells me my preferences are incorrect, go to system->prefs->sund and they work fine | 06:06 |
| CoUrPsE|DeAd | It doesnt mute your mic to other applications thou. just stops you hearing yourself. | 06:06 |
| Noxz_ | obv since my mic works | 06:06 |
| Subdolus | Is it possible to add TOO MUCH RAM to a computer? Even if it's the same type (DDR2 for eg.)? | 06:06 |
| Noxz_ | using what app? | 06:06 |
| compsman | niriven: i am thinking a bug cus i just reloaded it:P | 06:06 |
| Noxz_ | volume-control? | 06:06 |
| ziroday | Subdolus: how much ram are you considering here? Is it 32bit or 64bit? | 06:07 |
| niriven | compsman, related what? | 06:07 |
| terryx | bazhang, installing complete from terminal but i have not download anything from that site... | 06:07 |
| Subdolus | ziroday: 32bit | 06:07 |
| CoUrPsE|DeAd | Noxz_, dunno sorry. | 06:07 |
| compsman | niriven: Unable to read extra attributes: "Cache\Survey.mpq" | 06:07 |
| Subdolus | ziroday: Currently 1 stick of 512MB | 06:07 |
| bazhang | terryx, now restart ff | 06:07 |
| Subdolus | ziroday: I want to sling 2Gb in it | 06:07 |
| terryx | ok | 06:07 |
| compsman | niriven: that was a new message right befor dead sound:P | 06:07 |
| CoUrPsE|DeAd | 2GB of ram is fine, anything over 3.2GB you need 64bit to read. | 06:07 |
| niriven | Subdolus, Not possible to have too much ram, but keep in mind, 32-bit supptos only 4 gigs without PAE and 64-supports more :) | 06:07 |
| lust` | hello i just updated ubuntu and after that when i open firefox it expands to the whole screen and i am unable to view application , places , system bar or any other bar to be precise can you tell me what to do? | 06:07 |
| ziroday | Subdolus: that would be fine, however it is usually best to have the ram slots around even. For a stock 32bit kernel you can't go over 3.5GB | 06:08 |
| daxelrod | Subdolus: It's possible that your motherboard might not support all 2GB, but unlikely | 06:08 |
| Subdolus | Ok excellent | 06:08 |
| ziroday | lust`: press F11 twice | 06:08 |
| bazhang | lust`, hit f11 | 06:08 |
| terryx | bazhang, i have start ff and it says add-ons, flashblock' | 06:08 |
| Swish | erm | 06:08 |
| edwardchuajh | hi guys | 06:08 |
| Swish | stock ubuntu kernel supports 4GB just fine | 06:08 |
| roger_ | i have 2gb ram and i show 0% of swap being used, could i disable the swap partition, i've never seen it used | 06:09 |
| bazhang | terryx, go to a flash site now | 06:09 |
| CoUrPsE|DeAd | 32bit kernel? | 06:09 |
| Swish | it uses some trick to map around the ram so that you can use all 4GB. yes 32bit. | 06:09 |
| Swish | it's just a little more inefficient | 06:09 |
| niriven | roger_, Yes but if you ever go over 2 gigs of physical ram usage, i wouldnt want to see what happens :) | 06:09 |
| terryx | BAZHANG WHICH ONE? | 06:09 |
| Swish | 5-15% iirc, but i'm just guessing | 06:09 |
| CoUrPsE|DeAd | Ahh cool.. | 06:09 |
| ziroday | roger_: you could remove the swap partition, sure but unless you're very low on memory its a bad idea | 06:09 |
| dr_willis | roger_, its best to always have some swap partition - just in case... | 06:09 |
| bazhang | terryx, caps; youtube | 06:09 |
| ziroday | roger_: sorry not memory, hard drive space | 06:09 |
| Swish | imho I'd stick with 32bit ubuntu if I had 4GB RAM. | 06:09 |
| daxelrod | niriven: malloc returns zero. | 06:09 |
| compsman | niriven: my windows version wont open a error stream write error | 06:09 |
| edwardchuajh | i need some help in starting GIMPShop in my Ubuntu Studio 8.10, i installed it but nothing happens | 06:09 |
| Swish | 64bit drivers/software still isn't quite ready for prime time | 06:09 |
| niriven | daxelrod, Ah ;) | 06:10 |
| roger_ | i think ubuntu on the install only put like 528 swap partition lol | 06:10 |
| ziroday | Swish: are you talking about the desktop or server version? | 06:10 |
| lust` | thanks ziroday and bazhang | 06:10 |
| ziroday | roger_: Well then I would leave it alone | 06:10 |
| niriven | compsman, not sure than, sorry :( | 06:10 |
| Swish | ziroday, I was thinking of the server version, but doesn't the desktop kernel also have that 32bit 4GB+ kernel? | 06:10 |
| ziroday | roger_: you can't add it back to your normal hard drive space easily anyway | 06:10 |
| Khisanth | Swish: no | 06:10 |
| Swish | hmph. that sucks :) | 06:10 |
| ziroday | Swish: nope, only server version has the high-mem option compiled with it | 06:10 |
| compsman | niriven: ohhh no no THANK YOU!:) Your were BIG HEAP of HELP!:) | 06:10 |
| Khisanth | which is why I am only able to use 3/4GB right now | 06:11 |
| Swish | in that case you can just install the server version then later install the desktop :) | 06:11 |
| === Kwitschibo_ is now known as Kwitschibo | ||
| Swish | (i forget the exact apt-gets to do, but it's easily googleable) | 06:11 |
| bazhang | ubuntu-desktop | 06:11 |
| Khisanth | that had it's own problem, in that I couldn't use the nvidia drivers anymore | 06:11 |
| ziroday | Swish: the desktop kernel is optimized for the desktop, the server kernel is optimized for servers. They are different, | 06:11 |
| Swish | bazhang, there you go :) | 06:11 |
| terryx | bazhang, i don't understand i have selected the video but its black screen no video, no buttons..?? | 06:11 |
| niriven | compsman, if teamspeak supported alsa or esd, you whouldnt have this problem :) | 06:11 |
| mker | Swish, I disagree, I use 64bit with no problems at all, it depends on your needs, if you need something that is only available in 32bit then sure, otherwise 64bit is perfect. | 06:11 |
| ziroday | Swish: futhermore 64bit is faster | 06:11 |
| niriven | ziroday, For desktop use, no its not | 06:12 |
| compsman | niriven: u sure alsa uses /Dev/dsp ? | 06:12 |
| bazhang | terryx, what does about:plugins show in browser for flash | 06:12 |
| niriven | compsman, it does but it also have an interface, and uses dmix to software mix your incoming streams. | 06:12 |
| ziroday | niriven: it depends on which desktop use it is, but yes it is. | 06:12 |
| Swish | ziroday, like you said, it depends on your needs. My friend could only do h.264 decoding without dropping frames if he used a 64bit kernel/software. But his flash/pdf/whatever 64 bit plugins for FF have been giving him hell over the past year | 06:12 |
| niriven | ziroday, I'd like to see a benchmark that proves that :) | 06:12 |
| compsman | niriven: wwwould /Dev/dmix wwork? | 06:12 |
| mker | niriven, I think I've seen some benchmarks where it *was* faster when doing some desktop stuff. Don't have any link ready though. | 06:12 |
| Swish | Maybe it's all working "Relatively well" these days, but .... :) | 06:12 |
| niriven | compsman, i doubt it, not sure though. | 06:13 |
| ziroday | niriven: certaintly, give me a sec | 06:13 |
| ziroday | Swish: there are 64bit versions of flash and pdf readers | 06:13 |
| terryx | bazhang, i goto tools and add-ons, plugins, all are enabled | 06:13 |
| Swish | ziroday, like I said, he wasted a bit of time fiddling with 64bit software during the past year | 06:13 |
| bazhang | terryx, type about:plugins in address bar | 06:13 |
| compsman | niriven: i am gonna google teamspeak alsa | 06:13 |
| mker | niriven, http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=998&num=3 | 06:14 |
| terryx | bazhang, aal are enabled to yes but not one.. | 06:14 |
| ziroday | Swish: I think you will find most, if not all 64bit issues have been ironed out | 06:14 |
| pranavmarathe | hi there | 06:14 |
| Khisanth | Swish: you can still use the 32bit apps in a 64 bit system | 06:14 |
| Swish | ziroday, that's good to hear :) | 06:14 |
| essial | ubuntu really needs to update exaile in its repo | 06:14 |

| Swish | Khisanth, the issue is when you have plugins for apps that aren't compiled to the same 32/64 bitness | 06:15 |
| Swish | it... gets messy. | 06:15 |
| pranavmarathe | i've installed ubuntu inside windows but not able to boot from it. please help anyone | 06:15 |
| terryx | bazhang, i have ubuntu 8.10 with full updates.. | 06:15 |
| niriven | mker, Thats so minimal though, 5 fps, that cant be associated with 64-bit, that could be variable for the video drivers involved. As for things like gzip, yes its faster, but thats not everyday desktop use imo :) | 06:15 |
| Swish | but I'm not expert in this area of PITA. I've stuck with 32bit :) | 06:15 |
| bazhang | terryx, then install flashplugin-nonfree from repos | 06:15 |
| ziroday | niriven: sorry these were the best I could find on short notice http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_810_vs_fedora_10&num=2 not necessarily discussing 32 vs 64 bit but the graphs speak for themselves | 06:16 |
| terryx | bazhang, from where/ | 06:16 |
| mker | essial, that's not how it works with ubuntu, you get a stable distro and only security and bug updates for 6 months, then you can update to the next version of ubuntu. you *can* update it manually but it has its drawbacks | 06:16 |
| bazhang | terryx, sudo apt-get install | 06:16 |

| terryx | bazhang, should i close ff or not? | 06:16 |
| mker | niriven, I wasn't thinking about the game, it was lame and gzip that in my opinion were everyday desktop stuff :) | 06:16 |
| bazhang | terryx, yes | 06:16 |
| essial | mker: I know, I have to use the source version -- i'm just a little iffy about mixing source installs with binary packaging systems | 06:17 |

| niriven | mker, Ah ok. I'd agree th at 64-bit is better for some encryption, gzip, encoding, and database work :) | 06:17 |
| mker | essial, same here, I just don't read about new versions to avoid the temptation | 06:17 |
| essial | the repo version's shoutcast support doesn't work | 06:17 |
| essial | the source version does, so I have to. I've used linux from scratch so I know what I'm doing :p | 06:17 |

| terryx | bazhang, ok listen video is not running in ff but it is playing on epiphany web browser... | 06:23 |
| jinja-sheep | Should I be concerned about the said dependencies? What's the best way to remove packages without breaking the dependencies? http://pastebin.com/f76cbfb36 | 06:23 |
| essial | Linux may have more applications/support if companies/individuals could concentrate on writing applications, and not dealing with the gritty GNU autotools and the like -- as well as "newer" things like IDEs with code completion, debugging, etc all built in -- thats what I mean by "visual studio like" | 06:23 |
| gaintsura | in /etc/fstab how do I set the permissions on the device by umask? | 06:23 |
| spasticteapot | Dexi: I'll give it a shot - does it do FLAC? | 06:23 |
| Fractured | lost: it should be formatted FAT32 out of the box... plug it in, it should automount it and pop on the desktop | 06:23 |
| terryx | bazhang, i think the problem because of segmentation fault, what u think? | 06:23 |
| Dexi | spasticteapot: yes. and anything else you throw at it, as far as i could find. | 06:24 |
| bazhang | terryx, no idea as there is so little info so far | 06:24 |
| lost` | Fractured : thanks | 06:24 |
| Dexi | spasticteapot: when you try to play the file, it will prompt you for a codec, just click "get" and the song will work | 06:24 |
| terryx | bazhang, what else you want..tell me? | 06:24 |
| Fractured | lost: all the data from windows should still be on there and perfectly readable | 06:24 |
| spasticteapot | Dexi: Will it transfer playlists to a rockbox'd ipod? | 06:24 |
| some1normal | hi all i'm having a problem with a extern hd i tried testdisk it detected no partition | 06:24 |
| terryx | bazhang, do you know what is segmentation fault? | 06:25 |
| bazhang | spasticteapot, a regular ipod for sure, not sure about rockbox'd one | 06:25 |
| Dexi | spasticteapot: im not sure what a rockbox'd ipod is, i despise apple and dont use their products. | 06:25 |
| some1normal | can some one help me please | 06:25 |
| Dexi | !ask | some1normal | 06:25 |
| ubottu | some1normal: 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. :-) | 06:25 |
| bazhang | terryx, are you running compiz and a ton of other apps at the same time | 06:25 |
| spasticteapot | Dexi: Say what you will, you'll have a hard time finding an mp3 player with a better DAC. | 06:26 |
| terryx | bazhang, not at all | 06:26 |
| nite_johnboy | Hi - Anyone know of an app that would convert an .wma music filoe to a .mp3 or .ogg or .flac ? ? | 06:26 |
| bazhang | terryx, type top in terminal and see what is eating your ram | 06:26 |
| Dexi | spasticteapot: i like my MP3 player as I dont have to convert every song i put on it, and its easilly transferrable. I plug it in, and copy the files i want, no crappy software. | 06:26 |
| spasticteapot | Besides, I intend on replacing every part of the analog circuitry, replacing the 20gb hard drive with a 32gb compactflash card, and giving it 250% of the original battery capacity to power the whole mess. | 06:26 |
| Dexi | spasticteapot: its touch screen as well. | 06:26 |
| spasticteapot | Dexi: Rocbox replaces the default ipod OS. | 06:26 |
| spasticteapot | Also, I don't like touchscreens. :) | 06:27 |
| terryx | bazhang, just utorrent and it is stopped | 06:27 |
| onats1 | hi, how can i remotely connect to my currently active desktop session? | 06:27 |
| Dexi | :p well to each his own | 06:27 |
| spasticteapot | Dexi: It's mostly a case of the ipod being cheap ($30 shipped!), easy to modify (there's loads of information), and having unusually good sound quality. | 06:28 |
| some1normal | Dexi: i'm having a hd 80g with 2 partition that i'm tring to fix but nothing woked for me | 06:28 |
| essial | quick Gtk question if anyone knows: it seems the "details" style "treeview" doesn't have a border on any theme I use -- is this expected? | 06:28 |
| bazhang | !give me a test | 06:28 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about give me a test | 06:28 |
| some1normal | Dexi: extern hd | 06:28 |
| Dexi | some1normal: what are you trying to do? | 06:29 |
| Dexi | spasticteapot: what format does it use for playlists? | 06:29 |
| Dexi | mwu? | 06:29 |
| Dexi | m3u*? | 06:29 |
| spasticteapot | I don't know. | 06:29 |

| spasticteapot | Dexi: Yah, it uses .m3us. | 06:30 |
| Dexi | spasticteapot: then im sure youre fine. | 06:31 |
| terryx | bazhang, max is 5.0 it is xorg, then xchat, compiz, utorrent... | 06:31 |
| bazhang | terryx, you said no compiz | 06:31 |
| silv3r_m00n | hi there | 06:31 |
| Dexi | some1normal: are you trying to preserve any information on it? if not, just format it. | 06:31 |
| silv3r_m00n | i installed php and want to enable curl but in php.ini there is no such setting | 06:31 |

| bazhang | terryx, set to none | 06:32 |
| terryx | bazhang, done... | 06:33 |
| spasticteapot | It sounds like a sound configuration problem - try fiddling around with your sound settings. | 06:33 |
| bazhang | alt f2 metacity --replace terryx | 06:33 |
| Dexi | spasticteapot: should be | 06:33 |
| bazhang | terryx, also consider not using utorrent, but a native linux torrent client | 06:33 |
| bazhang | !torrent | 06:33 |
| ubottu | Torrent clients: Transmission (GTK and terminal-based), Deluge-Torrent, Freeloader, BitStormLite, BitTornado-GUI (GTK), KTorrent (KDE), QTorrent (Qt), Azureus (Java), TorrentFlux (web-based), bittornado, rTorrent, cTorrent, bittorrent, aria2 (terminal-based) - FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html - See also !P2P | 06:33 |

| terryx | bazhang, and why not to use utorrent? | 06:34 |
| Dexi | some1normal: have you tried formatting? | 06:34 |
| spasticteapot | Dexi: Odd. I can't find it. | 06:34 |
| Dexi | spasticteapot: spell it right? lol | 06:34 |
| terryx | bazhang...what?? | 06:34 |
| Dexi | rhythmbox | 06:34 |

| Dexi | its a format... of course its dangerous. its purpose is to destroy information | 06:42 |
| daxelrod | Why not format from a livecd? | 06:42 |
| tyler_d | Dexi: to format a drive... I would use the generic os install method | 06:42 |

| kodifletcher | whats that? | 07:08 |
| Flannel | roger_: Don't suggest xampp, we have a proper lamp stack. That's the suggested method. | 07:08 |
| niriven | kodifletcher, Did you install on another partition or hardrive, other then the windows, or did you overwrite it | 07:08 |
| Flannel | !lamp | mrmac_ | 07:09 |
| ubottu | mrmac_: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 07:09 |
| roger_ | lamp, lampp, either which way he'll have to fix the socket path to connect with the repo admin tools | 07:09 |
| Flannel | mrmac_: That page will get you all set up with the webserver proper. | 07:09 |
| kodifletcher | idk, i just installed it, and now in my boot menu theres no windows | 07:09 |
| niriven | kodifletcher, Well thats kinda not good that you dont know :). How many hardrives do you have? | 07:10 |

| b1gbawx | ever since i selected x windows to not load on startup my usb external harddrive wont load while in x. is there a way to fix this it worked before | 07:10 |

| kodifletcher | 1 | 07:10 |
| mrmac_ | so, this should be fun | 07:10 |
| mrmac_ | =] | 07:10 |
| niriven | kodifletcher, When you were in windows, did you see a C:\ and a D:\, D:\ being another drive, or was D:\ a cdrom | 07:11 |
| b1gbawx | i think my x doesnt load usb drivers anymore or something | 07:11 |
| Flannel | kodifletcher: Please go to a terminal (programs > accessories > terminal) and type in the following command: sudo fdisk -l then paste the output to paste.ubuntu.com, hit paste, and give us the URL of the page. | 07:11 |

| roger_ | are you needing scripts or something, send a pm, i might be able to help ya | 07:26 |
| niriven | kodifletcher, Get a windows install disc and start a fresh installation, or try to recover some data with recovery software | 07:26 |
| Dexi | yowshi2: make sure to set your output to the right hardware. right click the sound icon and go to prefs | 07:26 |
| tyler_d | kodifletcher: restart with windows in, go f8 enter then r for repair | 07:27 |
| kodifletcher | ok | 07:27 |
| tyler_d | kodifletcher: if it picks it up your ok, as well prior to this maybe check ntfs support from within your distro | 07:27 |
| yowshi2 | dex is was working about 30 minutes ago then it crapped out a reboot failed to fix the issue and i couldnt find anything jamming the sound stuff using lsof | 07:28 |
| kodifletcher | whats ntfs and distro? | 07:28 |
| kodifletcher | i really appricate this guys | 07:28 |
| essial | ntfs - Windows NT's standard filesystem | 07:28 |
| Dexi | yowshi2: that happened to me once. sound just... came back... after like 10 minutes. | 07:28 |
| yowshi2 | Dexi: is was working about 30 minutes ago then it crapped out a reboot failed to fix the issue and i couldnt find anything jamming the sound stuff using lsof | 07:28 |
| tyler_d | kodifletcher: ntfs is the file format typically used for windwos | 07:28 |
| yowshi2 | Dexi: well it's been 30 and a reboot | 07:29 |
| tyler_d | kodifletcher: distro - lingo for the version of linux you are running | 07:29 |
| Dexi | hmm | 07:29 |
| bazyl | hi everybody! | 07:29 |
| Dexi | !sound | yowshi2 | 07:29 |
| ubottu | yowshi2: 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 | 07:29 |
| Dexi | maybe | 07:29 |

| ubottu | Other !Linux distributions besides !Ubuntu include: Debian, Mepis (using !APT); RedHat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva (using !RPM); Gentoo, Slackware (using other packaging systems) | 07:32 |
| Bangers | is it possible to see what version of a package (SUN Java in my case) is on the repos, compared to what I have installed | 07:32 |
| kodifletcher | ok, one more thing ubuntu has a screen resolution of 640x480. Everything is really big, how do i make it smaller like the windows i had on this comp before ubuntu? | 07:32 |
| Flannel | Bangers: apt-cache policy package | 07:33 |
| raylu | !resolution | kodifletcher | 07:33 |
| KJ4HZW | Dexi: it was a joke, sorry | 07:33 |

| rww | tokyoahead: actually, yeah. try "sudo apt-get install automake". I'm not sure what's going on, but it's either automake/autoconf's fault, or something's up with the kernel sources. | 07:53 |
| tdeath | Is there an easy way to get spdif out(optical) to work as default device, or work at all | 07:53 |
| hjerte | flanne: correct, it did not work. and yes i tried factory reset. i also grabbed the network configuration data from the network manager applet while connected directly to the modem and attempted to input that in the basic setup. | 07:54 |
| hjerte | flannel, sorry missed an l. | 07:54 |

| cogu2 | what you mean by check hard drive | 07:55 |
| tokyoahead | rww: nah, same thing... | 07:55 |
| rww | tokyoahead: what version of VirtualBox are you using? | 07:55 |
| dongbag | check it for errors? | 07:55 |
| Flannel | hjerte: Odd indeed. Can you connect to the admin interface (192.168.1.1?) Maybe its a firmware issue, do you have current linksys firmware? Does it work any better with DHCP in vista? | 07:55 |
| yowshi2 | tyler_d: fixed it | 07:55 |
| tokyoahead | rww: 1.6.0 | 07:55 |
| Flannel | hjerte: or XP, for that matter. It sounds like it could be just a router issue, not something OS specific | 07:55 |
| yowshi2 | tyler_d: it was vlc all along but i dont rightly know why | 07:55 |
| rww | tokyoahead: see http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?p=47963 . Looks like an upgrade to the latest version of VirtualBox will fix it. | 07:56 |
| tokyoahead | rww: maybe I should upgrade | 07:56 |
| tokyoahead | rww: will do that thanks!!\ | 07:56 |

| Dexi | rww: sorry im just too independent for you! | 07:57 |
| Dexi | rww: have you ever used SuSE? | 07:58 |
| Flannel | hjerte: Very odd. So it sounds like everythings works except DHCP. You can either ignore it, or upgrade the firmware to see if it fixes it. Definately contact linksys about it, since they may know about it and know a workaround or whatever. | 07:58 |
| rww | Dexi: Yeah, six years ago :-/ | 07:58 |
| miranda_psi | Dexi: have you actually removed pulse and put in a replacement? | 07:58 |

| mrh | well, thanks anyway fellows | 08:05 |
| mrh | bye | 08:05 |
| ziroday | Quagmire: there is no usual best, you can try xchat or pidgin for gui clients and irssi for cli clients | 08:05 |
| jinja-sheep | !best | Quagmire | 08:06 |
| ubottu | Quagmire: 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. | 08:06 |
| Quagmire | irssi for cli clients ..please excuse my confusion ziroday | 08:06 |
| rww | Quagmire: Pidgin is nice if you also want to sign into IM accounts. XChat (not xchat-gnome) is a good graphical IRC-only client. IRSSI is a good command-line client. | 08:06 |
| jinja-sheep | Quagmire: On the plus side, nearly all clients can log. | 08:06 |
| ziroday | Quagmire: irssi runs in the terminal :) | 08:07 |
| Quagmire | I see | 08:07 |
| mjheagle8 | hey anyone good with conky? | 08:08 |
| SPF | rww: irssi can also be used for IM in combination with bitlbee | 08:08 |
| mjheagle8 | i need some conky help. | 08:08 |
| Quagmire | is xchat customizable as far as colors go? ...ah heck I'll just install and goof around ...Thanks to all of you guys! | 08:08 |
| rww | SPF: Any IRC client can be used for IM with bitlbee. Pidgin was designed to focus on IM, though, making it more notable in that regard than, say irssi+bitlbee or xchat+bitlbee (which I'm currently using :P) | 08:09 |
| rww | SPF: but yes, good point :) | 08:09 |
| ziroday | Quagmire: yep | 08:09 |
| Quagmire | hmmm bitlbee | 08:09 |
| Quagmire | had not heard of that one | 08:10 |
| ziroday | mjheagle8: there is #conky :) | 08:10 |

| ndlovu | any ideas why characters sometimes display like this (a square with 4 numbers): http://imagebin.ca/view/31oAQH4Z.html | 08:12 |
| |ns|nR8 | its an action ndlovu | 08:12 |
| * |ns|nR8 says like this ? | 08:12 | |
| Dexi | LOL miranda_psi idk how i managed that, but i opened amarok and heard a faint music sound, so i turned volume up and realized it was coming out my headset | 08:12 |
| ndlovu | |ns|nR8, I don't understand? | 08:13 |
| rww | Quagmire: okays. When you want to start using bitlbee, open up a terminal and "sudo nano /etc/bitlbee/bitlbee.conf", then change RunMode to something other than Inetd (either of the two Daemon options will work). You might want to look through the rest of the file too; it's really well documented. | 08:13 |
| SPF | rww: configuration changes? | 08:13 |
| miranda_psi | Dexi: nice one :) | 08:13 |
| rww | SPF: see above. When I left it as Inetd, I had a really hard time getting it to work, for some reason. | 08:13 |
| Flannel | hjerte: Sorry, got sidetracked. Here's documentation on the 'right' (and manual) way, so you can be sure that some GUI took isn't just doing it wrong: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/network-configuration.html | 08:13 |
| |ns|nR8 | sorry never mind, thought you were talking about something else | 08:13 |
| rww | Quagmire: and then "sudo /etc/init.d/bitlbee restart" when you're done editing the configuration | 08:13 |
| * ndlovu understands now | 08:14 | |
| SPF | rww: ah, I have the same settings. But I installed bitlbee over 2 years ago or something :) | 08:15 |
| Dexi | miranda_psi: i cant fix it! :( | 08:15 |
| bazyl | anybody know how to change host name in proper way? | 08:15 |
| miranda_psi | Dexi: tried restarting everything and selecting alsa in sound preferences? | 08:15 |
| korek | I have the working Linux PLD server. There is already a apache instaled there do you know how to connect another web serwer with apache in way that it will be in subdomain eg: i have serwer: mydomain.com and i want to add another one witch subdomain.mydomain.com, can the secound server be in intranet? | 08:15 |
| Dexi | sound prefs set to CA0106 (Alsa mixer) my sound card | 08:16 |
| Dexi | sounds still coming out my earmuffs :p | 08:16 |
| miranda_psi | Dexi: try restarting, just to make sure that pulse isn't still in memory... | 08:17 |
| Dexi | miranda_psi: okay | 08:17 |
| bakarat | why does memory use of a vm never show up in general memory use? | 08:17 |
| ndlovu | do text files have character sets associated with them, or does it depend entirely on your system? | 08:18 |
| rww | ndlovu: They don't have character sets associated with them. Text editors autodetect. | 08:18 |
| voox | how can i get my volume buttons working on kde4 ? (sony vaio laptop) | 08:18 |
| SPF | korek: by adding a dns entry in your dns server with subdomain.mydomain.com, thus pointing to your second server | 08:18 |
| rww | ndlovu: if you're seeing squares, either 1) your editor autodetected wrong, or 2) the font you're using doesn't support that character | 08:19 |
| ndlovu | rww, any idea how to force a different character encoding? | 08:19 |
| korek | SPF: will it work for a server in local network? | 08:20 |
| Quagmire | guys my server is not in the list and I'm not exactly sure I place the actual irc.####.net line | 08:20 |
| rww | Quagmire: in X-Chat, right? | 08:20 |
| Quagmire | got it | 08:20 |
| SPF | korek: if the domain is accessed within the local network it will | 08:21 |
| rww | Quagmire: k. FYI, with Bitlbee, you're gonna want to add a new server with the address 127.0.0.1 | 08:21 |
| Quagmire | now where did the bitlbee thing get to and how to match it up with xchat? | 08:21 |
| Muhammad_Saad | Which is the best tool for making a custom Ubuntu based live CD? | 08:21 |
| Quagmire | I'm signed in xchat on my home server | 08:21 |
| Dexi | miranda_psi: thanks, sound works now, and this is definitely a step up from pulse, but java sound still doesnt work at the same time... i guess its an issue with the plugin | 08:22 |
| rww | Quagmire: connect to server 127.0.0.1. It'll put you into a channel named &bitlbee automatically, which should tell you how to set up your IM accounts. | 08:22 |
| korek | which file should I edit? i have read about DNS. Is it in named.conf? The domain is accesed over internet and i want to phisicaly connect another computer in localnetwork to expand a main server | 08:22 |
| korek | SPF: which file on main server should I edit? | 08:23 |
| jessie | hey ppl i need help transfering files over a network from one ubuntu machine to another; I can't get the permissions to do it :/ | 08:25 |
| miranda_psi | Dexi: Also make sure amarok is set to use alsa as well and you can try running some other program with sound to see where the problem is... | 08:25 |
| jessie | *tearing hair out at network problems...* | 08:26 |
| woli | which filesystem do you recommend me for a music partition that must be accesible from windows vista? | 08:26 |
| woli | but through ubuntu as well | 08:27 |
| |ns|nR8 | woli, i use ntfs | 08:27 |
| |ns|nR8 | fat is also fine | 08:27 |
| Dexi | miranda_psi: yeah... its the java plugin... not gonna mess with that, i'll just live. can i bug you about 5.1ss? | 08:27 |
| Dexi | woli: i found that my music on ntfs worked just fine in linux, i'd go with that | 08:28 |
| SPF | korek: if the second server would be accessed from outside the local network, well I know it's possible but I don't know how to do it | 08:28 |
| miranda_psi | Dexi: go ahead | 08:28 |
| woli | hm.. | 08:28 |
| woli | i think ill ntfs them | 08:28 |
| woli | then* | 08:28 |
| korek | SPF: ok thanks | 08:28 |
| woli | which are the disadvantages of ntfs in linux? | 08:28 |
| rww | !ntfs | woli: use ntfs. Here's the instructions for the Ubuntu side of things | 08:28 |
| ubottu | woli: use ntfs. Here's the instructions for the Ubuntu side of things: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE | 08:28 |
| Dexi | woli: just keep your music on your windows drive and access it from linux formatted in ext3 | 08:29 |
| rww | woli: not much. If you need to write to it, make sure to use NTFS-3g. Oh, and if you don't shut down Windows properly, you won't be able to access the drive on Linux without doing some magic. That's about it. | 08:29 |
| jessie | guys waht's the easiest way to file share over a network with two ubuntu pc's? | 08:29 |
| Dexi | miranda_psi: i have 5.1 speakers and amarok config'd to 5.1 (i think) but no 5.1 output, only 2.0 as far as i can tell... i think the sub might get a tiny bit of output | 08:29 |
| woli | Dexi, i want a separate partition... | 08:29 |
| miranda_psi | jessie: samba is probably the easiest | 08:29 |
| woli | and maybe for games as well | 08:29 |
| Dexi | woli: you want 3 partitions? 1 vista, 1 linux, 1 music? | 08:30 |
| woli | Yes | 08:30 |
| crytel | jessie: nfs I would think. but its not secure | 08:30 |
| jessie | nfs? | 08:30 |
| cwillu | jessie, ssh | 08:30 |
| miranda_psi | Dexi: just give me a sec and i'll look at the amarok settings and see if i can see anything... | 08:30 |
| Dexi | woli: why not just host all music on vista's partition (if you dont mind me bugging you to do so) | 08:30 |
| Dexi | miranda_psi: its not amarok | 08:31 |
| jessie | umm userfriendly... i don't want to bugger around with ssh | 08:31 |
| Dexi | miranda_psi: its everything | 08:31 |
| cwillu | jessie, install openssh-server on the far machine, and then you can access it via sftp://<machinename>.local/ | 08:31 |
| woli | because some day i may have to reinstall vista.. | 08:31 |
| jessie | cwillu re: previous comment./ | 08:31 |
| cwillu | jessie, it's secure, and fast enough for most connections assuming the machine is fairly recent | 08:31 |
| Dexi | woli: oh. ok well i see. yeah go with ntfs | 08:31 |

| jessie | cwillu I share a file on this computer... then go over to the other computer and look for this pc on the network ('jessie1') | 08:32 |

| Quagmire | ok, I've gotten into the irc client a little it and I want to deal with the bitlbee deal, but first I want to sign onto another server ... | 08:32 |
| cwillu | jessie, you have openssh-server installed on jessie1? | 08:32 |
| Quagmire | little bit | 08:32 |
| woli | i will leave 280gb as unallocated space to be able to extend my partitions on need | 08:32 |
| jessie | then I try to copy and paste onto the other computer and it doesn't work because of some permission problem... | 08:33 |
| cwillu | jessie, if so, then open nautilus, hit the edit-address-bar button (to the left), and then type sftp://user@jessie1.local/ (where 'user' is the username on that machine, probably 'jessie'?) | 08:33 |
| jessie | yeah | 08:33 |
| miranda_psi | Dexi: try "alsamixer -c 1" and see if it picks up the different channels | 08:33 |
| Dexi | miranda_psi: where? | 08:34 |
| cwillu | jessie, make sure you're using a login that can actually write to the location you want | 08:34 |
| Dexi | terminal? | 08:34 |
| terryx | i have only ubuntu installed on my 80gb hard disk, and if i insert usb 10gb and want to install xp on it, can i do it? | 08:34 |

| Dexi | miranda_psi: they are | 08:34 |
| miranda_psi | Dexi: yeah - is a command to run in a terminal | 08:34 |
| jessie | oh okay brb cwillu | 08:34 |
| cwillu | jessie, what location are you trying to write into? | 08:34 |
| miranda_psi | Dexi: is it correctly labeling them? | 08:34 |
| Dexi | miranda_psi: no... it says USB device (my headset im assuming) but sound isnt coming out that anymore | 08:35 |
| korek | I have another question, if i installed ubuntu on small disk and i want to migrate to larger one can I make harddrive image and put it in to bigger one? | 08:35 |
| korek | will it cause trubles? | 08:35 |
| miranda_psi | Dexi: sorry - should be alsamixer -c 0 | 08:35 |
| terryx | i have only ubuntu installed on my 80gb hard disk, and if i insert usb 10gb and want to install xp on it, can i do it? | 08:35 |
| cwillu | korek, will work, although you'd need to resize the partition afterwards | 08:36 |
| jessie | oh cool cwillu | 08:36 |
| cwillu | jessie, got it working? | 08:36 |
| jessie | yeah that works really well; | 08:36 |
| Flannel | korek: there are ways to do that, yes. | 08:36 |
| cwillu | jessie, great! | 08:36 |
| faileas | terryx: xp wont install on a USB disk | 08:36 |
| terryx | faileas, why..? | 08:37 |
| Dexi | showing 7 channels but the 3 im concerned with (analog C F and R) are all turned up to where i should hear them | 08:37 |
| Quagmire | yes how do I get on another network (2 at one time) in xchat | 08:37 |
| jessie | i'm just kinda used to the XP way of accessing fileshares with IP addresses i guess | 08:37 |
| cwillu | terryx, ##windows might be able to give more assistance, it's really a windows problem | 08:37 |
| terryx | ok | 08:37 |
| faileas | terryx: its designed that way. its ot for here, but the installer dosen't have the drivers it needs | 08:37 |

| cwillu | jessie, you can still use ip addresses, but there's a multicast dns service that's enabled on ubuntu by default which is nice for this kind of stuff (and works even if you don't have a dhcp server) | 08:37 |
| ZummiG777 | Question: I'm trying to bridge four different network cards, eth0 to eth1, eth2 to eth3. Is there a way so all traffic remains distinct for routing, so that traffic from eth3 only goes across eth2? | 08:38 |
| cwillu | ZummiG777, bridge, or route? | 08:38 |
| jessie | oh okay | 08:38 |
| cwillu | (different things) | 08:38 |
| miranda_psi | Dexi: try putting them all to zero and then putting one at a time to 100 while you play somthing in 5.1 and see what works | 08:39 |
| Flannel | korek: An easier (and faster) method would be not to take an image, but just transfer all the stuff (you wont end up copying all of the empty space on the drive). This will use find and cpio to do the copying. A *similar* methodology is http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome Except you'll be transferring '/' instead of '/home' | 08:39 |
| Dexi | miranda_psi: F (front 2) is the one that works, the others dont | 08:39 |
| ZummiG777 | I'm bridging the cards, but I'd like the traffic to route across the specific cards | 08:39 |
| Flannel | korek: After the transfer, you'll also have to set up grub to the MBR of the new drive, which is doable by following the first link at the factoid ubottu gives | 08:39 |
| Flannel | !grub | korek | 08:39 |
| ubottu | korek: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 08:39 |
| cwillu | ZummiG777, if you're using bridging, then if you make one bridge and add each real network device to that bridge, then you logically have one device | 08:39 |
| cwillu | ZummiG777, I suppose you could do something weird with firewall rules, but I wouldn't go that way | 08:39 |
| cwillu | ZummiG777, just make two bridges? | 08:40 |
| CaT_MaNZz | I have problem with my Headphone jack. It does not mute speakers when i plugged it. I use laptop Fujitsu-Siemens AMILO pi1536 | 08:40 |
| cwillu | brctl addbr br0; brctl addbr br1; brctl addif eth0 br0;... | 08:40 |
| ZummiG777 | Then the routing table, which might show two default routes, one for the eth0 and one for the eth2, would then handle them correctly, not just routing all the data oved the first encountered default rule? | 08:41 |
| cwillu | ZummiG777, it really sounds like you want to be using routing though | 08:41 |
| korek | It is 2 days old installation , it is worth to move everything or it is better and less time consumming to install it from the begining? | 08:41 |
| cwillu | ZummiG777, with bridging, you're no longer routing to particular cards | 08:41 |
| JaZ969 | is there a wine help channel? | 08:41 |
| JaZ969 | i get akick from #wine | 08:42 |
| JaZ969 | lol | 08:42 |
| cwillu | korek, if you don't have particular settings you're attached to, reinstalling is probably easier (although it can be handy to know how to do this while you don't have anythinng to lose :p) | 08:42 |
| Flannel | korek: It'll be faster (and certainly easier) to backup whatever you have and reinstall | 08:42 |
| Flannel | JaZ969: try #winehq | 08:42 |
| JaZ969 | thanks | 08:42 |
| cwillu | ZummiG777, lets back up a step: why do you need to use a bridge instead of routing? | 08:42 |
| korek | thank you for help | 08:42 |
| rww | Quagmire: sorry, was off doing other stuff. Do you still need help connecting to another server in XChat? | 08:43 |
| ZummiG777 | I have multiple machines behind a firewall, I'm using fwbuilder to create a set of iptables rules. I'm using 'real' IP addresses on both sides of the firewall and they need to transmit arp responses. | 08:43 |
| ZummiG777 | bridging seemed the best option. | 08:43 |
| RatPackSopra | rww I just made it in here | 08:43 |
| ZummiG777 | Users are going to be accessing the machines behind the firewall with their real-ip addresses | 08:44 |
| codecowboy | hi. i'm getting "dpkg: failed in buffer_read(fd): copy info file `/var/lib/dpkg/available': Is a directory" from update manager or command line apt-get in intrepid. anyone know how to resolve? | 08:44 |
| RatPackSopra | this is my nick on the ubuntu machine | 08:44 |
| Gary|tp | Anyone here good with iptables? | 08:44 |
| cwillu | ZummiG777, that sounds like fun, and also like something I don't want to have anything to do with :p | 08:44 |
| Jadewolf | Hey guys, how do I get dual monitors to work with Ubuntu, I have an nvida 8600 GTX with 2 monitors hooked up | 08:44 |
| toddoon | how do i do an alias for a command? | 08:44 |
| rww | RatPackSopra: oh, okay. So did you figure it out, then? | 08:44 |
| cwillu | ZummiG777, you're definately gonna need some firewall rules to make it work though | 08:44 |
| cwillu | Jadewolf, nvidia-config | 08:45 |
| ZummiG777 | Yeah, I know. My stick is that my provider is currently only allowing 5 MAC addresses across each port, so I have to split machines up, that is why I'm trying to figure out how they would route. | 08:45 |
| RatPackSopra | well I got connected to 2 networks, but now I want to get the bitlbee thing working | 08:45 |
| Gary|tp | I need to somehow get my notebook to forward ALL outgoing (aka, not to 127.0.0.1) TCP connections on all ports to 127.0.0.1:port | 08:46 |
| cwillu | Jadewolf, http://pastebin.com/f58031bc5 is my xorg.conf after everything is working | 08:46 |
| Gary|tp | I think iptables can do it | 08:46 |
| lucent | hi, is there a discussion channel for Release+1 ? | 08:46 |
| rww | lucent: #ubuntu+1 | 08:46 |
| lucent | rww: thanks | 08:46 |
| cwillu | ZummiG777, and you have two connections to your provider for redundancy? | 08:46 |
| rww | RatPackSopra: okay. Bitlbee works by pretending to be an IRC server, and sits on your local computer. You connect to it just like any other IRC server, except with the address 127.0.0.1. Go ahead and do that, and it'll push you into a channel called &bitlbee, and give you instructions on setting it up,. | 08:47 |
| miranda_psi | Dexi: have a look at this - don't know if it will help, but good luck :): http://ubuntulinuxhelp.com/the-simple-way-to-get-51-surround-sound-audio-working-in-ubuntu/ | 08:47 |
| cwillu | ZummiG777, (noting that under a bridging config, the routing table has no bearing on which network card is used; 4 cards bridged together will basically act exactly like a four port switch) | 08:47 |
| Jadewolf | thanks guys, gotta reboot X now it says | 08:47 |
| RatPackSopra | so set up another irc network with the 127 address? | 08:47 |
| rww | RatPackSopra: yep | 08:48 |
| cwillu | ZummiG777, (i.e., using arp broadcasts to determine which card should receive which traffic) | 08:48 |
| wartalker | how to delete more continuous blank lines to one blank line | 08:48 |
| ZummiG777 | No, they are just in the wall. | 08:48 |

| Gary|tp | I need to somehow get my notebook to forward ALL outgoing (aka, not to 127.0.0.1) TCP connections on all ports to 127.0.0.1:port | 08:50 |
| Quagmire | rww I'm not getting it to work ...I'm positive that I don;t have the correct info listed in the server list | 08:50 |
| miranda_psi | Gary|tp: have a look at iptables and good luck :) | 08:50 |
| cwillu | Gary|tp, I'm not even sure that makes sense | 08:51 |
| cwillu | Gary|tp, vpn of some description? | 08:51 |
| Dexi | miranda_psi: gonna go disable on-board sound in bios... | 08:51 |
| miranda_psi | Dexi: o | 08:51 |
| miranda_psi | ok* | 08:51 |
| Gary|tp | cwillu: Anytime the PC tries to connect, iptables needs to stop it and redirect it to localhost:4326, which is an SSH tunnel. | 08:51 |
| rww | Quagmire: in the window with the options for "Your Details" and "Connecting" and such? | 08:51 |
| Gary|tp | miranda_psi: I've been looking, both man and google are failing me :( | 08:52 |
| Quagmire | rww under the networks list I added one called 127.0.0.1 | 08:52 |
| cwillu | Gary|tp, use a tap device | 08:52 |
| Gary|tp | tap device ? | 08:52 |
| rww | Quagmire: right. Did you then hit "Edit" and set the server address? | 08:52 |
| cwillu | Gary|tp, basically, a fake network card that ssh would create, that you'd set to be your default gateway | 08:52 |
| Quagmire | what server address? | 08:52 |
| mTz | hi everybody | 08:53 |
| miranda_psi | Gary|tp: what part is it that you can't get? | 08:53 |
| Gary|tp | that sounds... like exactly what I need :). | 08:53 |
| codecowboy | hi. i'm getting "dpkg: failed in buffer_read(fd): copy info file `/var/lib/dpkg/available': Is a directory" from update manager or command line apt-get in intrepid. anyone know how to resolve? | 08:53 |
| mTz | ;) | 08:53 |
| rww | Quagmire: the name you put in the actual Network List window (the one with "User information" at the top) is just a name. The actual address (127.0.0.1 in this case) needs to be put in by clicking "Edit" and adding it. | 08:53 |
| mTz | can any one help me ! | 08:53 |
| rww | Quagmire: give me a sec and I'll put up a screenshot that might explain it better | 08:53 |
| cwillu | Gary|tp, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH_VPN , although if this needs to be reliable, consider using something like openvpn instead | 08:53 |
| mTz | where can i download vim 7.2.deb fo ubuntu ? | 08:54 |
| cwillu | Gary|tp, what you're trying to do is exactly a vpn | 08:54 |
| Gary|tp | cwillu: It's kinda tricky. It's being forwarded to a hardware device that ONLY supports SOCKS and SSH tunneling. | 08:54 |
| cwillu | Gary|tp, the ssh approach has the benefit of not needing much work to connect to an arbitrary endppoint | 08:55 |
| hechu | #join ubuntu-cn | 08:55 |
| cwillu | Gary|tp, hmm, you may still have some difficulties then, although I think there's packages that'll do a tap device to socks bridge | 08:55 |
| hechu | #join ubuntu-cn | 08:56 |
| Gary|tp | if it can redirect it to an SSH tunnel it's all good | 08:56 |
| codecowboy | copy info file `/var/lib/dpkg/available': Is a directory | 08:56 |
| codecowboy | hi. i'm getting "dpkg: failed in buffer_read(fd): copy info file `/var/lib/dpkg/available': Is a directory" from update manager or command line apt-get in intrepid. anyone know how to resolve? | 08:56 |
| cwillu | Gary|tp, an ssh port forward won't let you do arbitrary networking though, | 08:56 |

| floatboat | what is the keybinding on the keyboard to change between desktops in openbox? | 08:57 |
| miranda_psi | mTz: ask and wait to see if anyone can | 08:57 |
| rww | Quagmire, RatPackSopra: http://rww.name/ubuntu/bitlbee.png | 08:57 |
| Gary|tp | cwillu: Basically, I've got a program on Ubuntu that opens server, SOCKS or SSH tunnel, and all connections to it are forwarded to the hardware device. So I'm looking for a way to redirect all connections on the notebook to the SSH tunnel running on 127.0.0.1. | 08:57 |
| floatboat | what is the keybinding on the keyboard to change between desktops in openbox? | 08:58 |
| rww | Quagmire, RatPackSopra: make it look like that, except with a blank Server password (since you didn't make an account yet) | 08:58 |
| cwillu | Gary|tp, what program? | 08:58 |
| Gary|tp | So, if I were to try to connect to google.com, it'd be forwarded through the tunnel on 127.0.0.1, and then forwarded to the external device. | 08:58 |
| Gary|tp | Something you've likely never heard of :). | 08:58 |
| Dexi | miranda_psi: i couldnt find any settings to disable on-board sound :( oh well... another thing im gonna have to live with til my new drive comes and I get windows back | 08:58 |
| cwillu | Gary|tp, if it's working on a socket level, it won't work, as it won't have enough information to do any further routing, hence my asking :) | 08:58 |
| rww | Gary|tp: You'd generally do that on a per-application level (e.g. by setting the proxy server in firefox with Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Settings | 08:59 |
| Gary|tp | cwillu: Afraid I don't follow. | 08:59 |
| cwillu | Gary|tp, is it in the repos? | 08:59 |
| Gary|tp | cwillu: Yeah, I'm trying to avoid that, as it would be a pain. I don't see what's stopping iptables from redirecting it all through the local SSH tunnel to the device? | 09:00 |
| illmortal | Hey guys, what's a good fraps application? | 09:00 |
| Gary|tp | Andno, it's not in the repos. | 09:00 |
| cwillu | Gary|tp, without know what exactly you're trying to do, and what the program gives you..., but what you're asking doesn't make sense | 09:01 |

| instagaeta | Hey all. I'm a huge linux newb. Quick question: are xubuntu and kubuntu just different version of ubuntu? How are they different? | 09:25 |
| illmortal | Anyone know a good fraps program? | 09:26 |
| Slart | b1gbawx: doesn't usb work without X? I'm not so sure it is a X command | 09:26 |
| rww | instagaeta: yes. Xubuntu uses the XFCE desktop environment. Kubuntu uses KDE. Ubuntu uses GNOME. | 09:26 |
| Slart | !kubuntu | instagaeta | 09:26 |
| ubottu | instagaeta: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE | 09:26 |
| Flannel | instagaeta: Theyre all three (and a few others) flavors of Ubuntu (the distro) yes. They have different default GUIs: Ubuntu (the flavor) has Gnome, Kubuntu KDE, Xubuntu XFCE | 09:26 |
| instagaeta | So they just have different GUI's? | 09:26 |
| Slart | !xubuntu | instagaeta | 09:26 |
| ubottu | instagaeta: Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels | 09:26 |
| rww | instagaeta: correct | 09:26 |
| Flannel | instagaeta: By default (you can switch them all around, have all three installed, etc) | 09:27 |
| rww | instagaeta: and different applications installed by default as a result of that | 09:27 |
| instagaeta | I see. Thanks for the info. I appreciate it. | 09:27 |
| rww | xukun: hmm. I can't find it, but maybe it's somewhere off /usr/share/icons? | 09:27 |
| instagaeta | Oh, one more thing: I've downloaded the most recent Ubuntu ISO file and burned it with my Mac, but I keep getting verification errors. It doesn't work when I boot the disk in my PC. Is this a problem with the ISO file, or the burner, or perhaps the CD? | 09:29 |
| JaZ969 | how do you configure sound cards on ubuntu | 09:30 |
| JaZ969 | like since alsaconf doesnt work | 09:30 |
| rww | instagaeta: open up Terminal on your Mac, type "openssl md5 name-of-iso-file.iso", and compare the result to http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/intrepid/release/MD5SUMS | 09:30 |
| rww | instagaeta: that'll tell you whether the file you downloaded was correct | 09:30 |
| kristian42 | Where - in what file - is the approriate place to auto-start an application that uses X ? (I am using Xvfb) | 09:30 |
| Slart | !session | kristian42 | 09:31 |
| ubottu | kristian42: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot | 09:31 |
| kristian42 | Slart: I'm not logging on | 09:31 |
| xukun | rww, I will search it some more. Thanks | 09:31 |
| instagaeta | Wow. Thanks again. You're all geniuses. | 09:31 |
| kristian42 | !boot | kristian42 | 09:31 |
| ubottu | kristian42, please see my private message | 09:31 |
| Slart | kristian42: not sure if you can run X stuff without being logged in.. | 09:32 |
| rww | instagaeta: if the MD5 matches, then you have some other problem and we can work it out. If not, you need to download the file again... | 09:32 |
| bimmax | Hi, Is there a way one can recover a folder and file deleted? | 09:32 |
| Slart | kristian42: what is it you want to run? | 09:32 |
| rww | instagaeta: ... wait, damnit, that's the wrong MD5SUMS URL. I'll go find you the right one. | 09:32 |
| Slart | bimmax: depends on the file system you're using.. is it ext3? | 09:33 |
| kristian42 | Slart: selenium-rc, a java process that starts browsers | 09:33 |
| Slart | !md5 | 09:33 |

| peterrus | Hello, I am not sure about the following, but when I install update-notifier (the tray icon to notify about updates). It does not work by default, because it seems to need apt-watch, which isn't listed as a depency | 09:33 |
| Slart | I think there is a link somewhere in there | 09:33 |
| xoz | bimmax: magicrescue | 09:33 |
| kristian42 | Slart: I can actually use auto-logon so I'll go with the easy solution | 09:33 |

| Slart | kristian42: browser as in firefox and such? | 09:34 |
| kristian42 | lart: Yes | 09:34 |
| kristian42 | Slart: this worked on 8.04 but has stopped working on 8.10 | 09:34 |
| Slart | kristian42: but you can't run that without being logged in anyways.. so it wouldn't do you any good, or? | 09:34 |
| chilli0 | hi all | 09:35 |
| kristian42 | Slart: SeleniumRC is a browser robot that runs unattended | 09:35 |
| chilli0 | i installed acidrip and when i press start to start riping it just quits | 09:35 |
| chilli0 | anyone know why | 09:35 |
| Slart | kristian42: oh.. but it still uses X? | 09:35 |
| kristian42 | Slart: Yes. And it worked fine under 8.04 | 09:36 |
| instagaeta | Hmm. I'm typing this into the terminal: "openssl md5 ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386.iso". Is that wrong? | 09:37 |
| kristian42 | Slart: But I'll just setup autologon and autorun. Thanks | 09:37 |

| strangeseraph | I'm not saying that there isn't a need for a command line, but when you have a graphical interface designed for a function it should work :P | 09:47 |
| cwillu | mrmac_, what're you trying to do? | 09:47 |

| mrmac_ | cwillu, just tryin to see whats up =] | 09:47 |
| cwillu | mrmac_, running through a router or anything? | 09:47 |
| mrmac_ | nope. i believe i blocked incoming connections to my server | 09:48 |
| mrmac_ | so imma back track now | 09:48 |
| strangeseraph | yes, I do. | 09:48 |
| cwillu | indeed, blocking incoming connections will prevent me from making an incoming connection to your web server :p | 09:48 |

| mrmac_ | blast.. thanks again | 09:52 |
| tyler_d | cwillu: better then monday night football anytime though | 09:54 |
| mrmac_ | okay... one (or 2) more attempts should get this... | 09:54 |

| tyler_d | Dr_future: virtualbox | 09:57 |

| strangeseraph | yay, I think it worked! goody :) | 09:57 |
| strangeseraph | now to get rockbox on this thing | 09:57 |
| Dr_future | is virtualbox like vmware? | 09:57 |
| tyler_d | Dr_future: you got it | 09:58 |
| rww | Dr_future: yes. They do the same thing, except Virtualbox is free ;) | 09:58 |

| jinja-sheep | Mmm. Which backup method are best? I have removed all the excess packages from ubuntu-8.10-umpc (subnotebook). It's the way I like it... minimal. I'd like to make a backup archive so in the future, I'll be able to install it back on anytime... and it'll be brand new. Any suggestion? | 09:59 |

| strangeseraph | thanks rww :) I'm getting a new mp3 player I hope soon. Can't get my zune to work in linux (ubuntu to stay on target. Don't know about other OSs. | 09:59 |
| tyler_d | mrmac_: however I'm not sure why its only listening on 127.0.0.1.... if you want people from outside to hit it you should have it listening on teh public address... ie. 10. or 192. | 09:59 |

| mattycoze | hey umm; kind of a noobish question here but I want to know how to view a library. | 10:06 |
| cwillu | define library | 10:06 |
| strangeseraph | basically I have to choose a device supported by Rockbox already huh? Hm. | 10:06 |
| mattycoze | cwillu you know; the things that you download as a lib in synaptic | 10:07 |
| mattycoze | where does all that go? | 10:07 |
| pascal72 | would anyone know if there s a memory test utility that works without rebooting the server to start the memetest utility, also is there somethign to test if there s any issue with the swap files, i got memory corruptions that seems to lead to crashes | 10:07 |
| alexkuebo | hi! i got less directories in a (cifs-)mounted directory than with smbclient, what could that be? | 10:07 |
| cwillu | mattycoze, /usr/lib generally | 10:07 |
| SI{R}IUS | hi all | 10:07 |
| cwillu | mattycoze, synaptic can show you the installed files | 10:08 |

| Ileden | Hi! I finally switched my laptop to ubuntu, and my wireless connection is slow (1 Mb/s). I found out the problem is with my RaLink RT2500 card drivers (rt2500pci), and found out that alternative drivers are available at rt2x00.serialmonkey.com. Problem is, I don't know how to install these drivers, since I'm pretty much still a beginner with ubuntu. Can anyone help? | 10:08 |
| pbn | Hi there. I've got X at 98% most of the time, I think this means my video card drivers aren't properly set up. It's an Intel 82845G/GL . I have installed xserver-xorg-intel. However, /etc/X11/xorg.conf does not have any line saying "INtel". How do I "enable" the Intel driver ? | 10:08 |
| mrmac_ | oh well, time for bed... gnight folks. thnx for the help | 10:08 |
| alexkuebo | if i specify the directory for ls, its getting listed | 10:09 |
| cwillu | mattycoze, not a whole lot of interest though, the header files are usually the only thing with anything humanly readable in them, and they're typically only installed via the -dev packages | 10:09 |
| rww | Ileden: quick question before you get started. What type of encryption does the access point you're trying to connect to use? Possible answers: None, WEP, WPA, WPA2... | 10:09 |
| cwillu | pbn, the xorg.conf file should be pretty much empty, it'll pick the right driver | 10:09 |
| Ileden | rww: WPA/WPA2 | 10:09 |
| cwillu | pbn, you can verify by scanning through /var/log/xorg.0.log for the next INTEL | 10:09 |
| cwillu | pbn, text rather | 10:10 |
| mattycoze | cwillu so what's a library do? | 10:10 |
| pbn | cwillu: thank you, gonna grep -i intel /var/log/xorg.0.log | 10:10 |
| Ileden | rww: (WPA, if I remember correctly) | 10:10 |
| cwillu | mattycoze, everything? :p | 10:10 |
| cwillu | mattycoze, it's a way of sharing code between applications | 10:10 |
| xixnix | what does the following error mean?: /join | 10:10 |
| cwillu | mattycoze, i.e., the encryption algorithms are in a library of their own, so that each application doesn't have to have their own copy with their own unique bugs | 10:11 |
| xixnix | what does the following error mean?: DBus error org.gtk.Private.RemoteVolumeMonitor.NotFound: The given mount was not found | 10:11 |
| cwillu | mattycoze, (...for instance) | 10:11 |
| rww | Ileden: the legacy drivers downloadable from that site won't work for you, then. They don't support wpa_supplicant, which is needed for WPA. | 10:11 |
| cwillu | xixnix, whats the error from, what where you doing when it happened, etc? | 10:11 |
| Ileden | rww: aw. :( Thanks for the info though. | 10:11 |
| cwillu | xixnix, could try stuffing it into google and see what it spits back | 10:12 |
| rww | Ileden: open up a terminal and type "uname -r". That'll tell you what kernel version you have. I might have an alternative for you. | 10:12 |
| Ileden | rww: I could switch to WEP, but rather not since it's somewhat weak. | 10:12 |
| cwillu | xixnix, first hit on google for that error is bug #260766 | 10:12 |
| cwillu | might be relevant | 10:12 |
| Ileden | rww: 2.6.27-9-generic | 10:12 |
| mattycoze | oh.... so it's sort of like just a code reference right? | 10:12 |
| xixnix | k thanks | 10:13 |
| mattycoze | cwillu; like a program would just be refering to say a secion of that code int he library? | 10:13 |
| rww | Ileden: http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/wiki/index.php/Downloads says that anything higher than 2.6.24 should have drivers for rt2x00 in it already | 10:13 |
| cwillu | mattycoze, yep | 10:13 |
| mattycoze | ahh i see :) | 10:13 |
| strangeseraph | gee, rockbox options are limited aren't they? :/ | 10:14 |
| rww | Ileden: oh, wait, nvm, you had problems with that, I see. | 10:14 |
| mattycoze | but then to put together a program you'd have to know what's int he library right? | 10:14 |
| mattycoze | so; how do you do that? | 10:14 |
| rww | Ileden: well, the alternative won't work with WPA. Realtek drivers kinda suck (I have rtk8187 and it disconnects randomly). Sorry :( | 10:14 |

| terryx | actionparsnip1, and how close running animation...its not closing...if i want normal.. | 12:17 |
| ActionParsnip1 | NaPsTeR: make a directory in /media to mount to, like /media/disk or something | 12:17 |
| ActionParsnip1 | terryx: killall xwinwrap would make sense | 12:18 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !mount | NaPsTeR | 12:18 |

| NaPsTeR | ActionParsnip1: how? how do i make the directory and how do i mount? | 12:18 |
| ActionParsnip1 | NaPsTeR: if its formatted ntfs, i'd suggest | 12:18 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !ntfs-3g | NaPsTeR | 12:18 |
| ubottu | NaPsTeR: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 12:18 |

| adam_ | does ubuntu come with a firewall? or do we have to download one | 12:19 |
| slothish | yes it comes with a firewall | 12:19 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !firewall | adam_ | 12:19 |
| ubottu | adam_: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 12:19 |

| ActionParsnip1 | LuXor: you dont need to edit anything except/etc/network/interfaces | 12:25 |
| LuXor | ActionParsnip1 how about resolv.conf ? | 12:25 |
| knoxz | Hi guys!!! with what program can I extract r00 files? | 12:26 |
| ActionParsnip1 | LuXor: thats gonna get populated automatically but you could use web based dns, if iyou use dhcp your router will give you isps dns to your system. | 12:26 |
| Slart | knoxz: it's a rar archive.. type !rar for more info | 12:26 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !rar | knoxz | 12:26 |

| ActionParsnip1 | LuXor: you should use gksudo gedit as well, sudo gedit is incorrect | 12:27 |
| ActionParsnip1 | Area52: if they are pci, thats the bus speed of them | 12:27 |
| LuXor | ActionParsnip1 k i wil edit interfaces with gksudo gedit | 12:28 |
| knoxz | Slart: yeah well I have rar but it cant extract my r00 files | 12:28 |

| NaPsTeR | i can't find anything on how to mount an externa; drive without formatting in terminal...my gui is not working so i'm trying 2 backup 2 an external but need to mount it...any suggestions? | 12:28 |
| LuXor | ActionParsnip1 wait and what should i write there? | 12:29 |
| knoxz | ActionParsnip1: ok thx :) | 12:29 |
| Slart | knoxz: r00 is usually the second file in a set of several rar files where the first one is named blabla.rar, the second blabla.r00, the third one blabla.r01 etc etc.. try opening the .rar file instead | 12:29 |
| mcorp | is it possible in the grub shell to get a list of the available disks/partitions? | 12:29 |
| ActionParsnip1 | LuXor: just make sure you use an address in the netmask of your router and use the routers lan ip as gateway (something like 192.168.0.1 is usual) | 12:29 |
| ActionParsnip1 | mcorp: df -h | 12:29 |
| Slart | mcorp: fdisk -l perhaps? | 12:29 |
| LuXor | ActionParsnip1 where should i write broadcast ? | 12:30 |
| ActionParsnip1 | LuXor: interfaces file | 12:30 |
| knoxz | Slart: I tried to open it but i got this error could not oCould not open "nympho-gmtfm.cd1.rar" | 12:30 |
| mcorp | ActionParsnip1/Slart: in the Grub shell - I'm not booted | 12:30 |
| NaPsTeR | I have no gui, how do i mount an external drive in terminal? | 12:30 |
| ActionParsnip1 | LuXor: broadcast will be something like 192.16.0.255 | 12:30 |
| LuXor | ActionParsnip1 the command ? broadcast 1.1.1.1? | 12:30 |
| CaT_MaNZz | I have problem with my Headphone jack. It does not mute speakers when i plugged it. I use laptop Fujitsu-Siemens AMILO pi1536 | 12:30 |
| ActionParsnip1 | mcorp: yes they are shell commands | 12:30 |
| lvr | vlc doesn't know how to resize the playback window correctly (720x576) when playing dvd. suggestions? | 12:30 |
| Slart | knoxz: do you have that file? | 12:31 |
| Area52 | hmm PCI Express ... i thought they ran at something like 500+MHz | 12:31 |
| mcorp | ActionParsnip1: not the bash shell, inside grub | 12:31 |
| ActionParsnip1 | LuXor: network is 192.168.0.0 | 12:31 |
| knoxz | Slart:yes | 12:31 |
| mcorp | ActionParsnip1: e.g. not hda, sda etc, but in the form (hd0,3) or whatever | 12:31 |
| meho_ | Issue: after i plug my portable hdd in i get Cannot mount Volume error with unable to mount message | 12:31 |
| Slart | mcorp: oh.. I don't remember the grub commands by heart.. try writing !grub here for some grub links.. there must be a doc somewhere | 12:31 |
| ActionParsnip1 | mcorp: try the !grub factoid, it may help | 12:31 |
| LuXor | ActionParsnip1 what shouold i write in interfaces file to get broadcast working :| | 12:32 |
| mcorp | !grub | 12:32 |

| Shoopuf | Do I still get all the latest versions of stuff, like PHP, MySQL, or whatever else for a web server if I stick with old version 8.04 LTS? Or do only the newest Ubuntu versions get the updates? | 12:47 |
| rww | Area52: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip1 | meho_: sudo fdisk -l ill show you all partitions visible | 12:47 |

| cwillu | Shoopuf, you still get updates, but that doesn't mean 'latest released version', but instead 'security and bug fixes' | 12:48 |

| ActionParsnip1 | NaPsTeR: when you cd /media/ntfs-drive ? | 12:55 |
| Shoopuf | Where'd mib go, sounds like he accidently turned on some Compiz_Fuzion inverting special effect.. | 12:55 |
| Slart | mib_n0jyic: alt+m would be the default compiz shortcut for that | 12:55 |

| babo | how come inetd.conf is empty in ubuntu ? | 12:56 |
| ActionParsnip1 | NaPsTeR: this may help, you will need to sudo umount /media/ntfs-disk first before trying: http://www.debianadmin.com/mount-your-widows-partitions-and-make-it-readwritable-in-ubuntu.html | 12:56 |

| DasEi | where doo I find the config for cron (altering Clear_tmp_dir_at_boootup) ?? | 12:57 |
| danshtr|mibbit | Slart: it does not work | 12:57 |
| Slart | danshtr|mibbit: might be left windows key+m | 12:57 |
| danshtr|mibbit | thats it | 12:57 |
| danshtr|mibbit | thanks | 12:57 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !cron | DasEi | 12:57 |
| ubottu | DasEi: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto - There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm | 12:57 |
| danshtr|mibbit | :) | 12:57 |
| Slart | danshtr|mibbit: depends a bit on how you've setup meta keys and such.. =) | 12:57 |
| Shoopuf | DasEi: Oo, I know this one. :) Cron can be edited at /usr/bin... Type "crontab -e" then enter your cron lines into the file | 12:58 |
| Slart | danshtr|mibbit: it's a plugin for compiz, called Negative or something like that | 12:58 |
| mas2_ | I want to use Songbird as my mp3 player. But it's not listed in synaptic. Can I somehow add it there? Or should I visit there website and install it manually, If then where should i choose to install it and so on? used to synaptic do all that for me. | 12:58 |
| Slart | danshtr|mibbit: you can disable it using !ccsm | 12:58 |
| NaPsTeR | ActionParsnip1: Thnx so much...i got it done. | 12:58 |
| ActionParsnip1 | !songbird | mas2_ | 12:58 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about songbird | 12:58 |
| danshtr|mibbit | Slart: thanks, i did not knew the name so i couldn't find on google how to go back | 12:58 |
| ActionParsnip1 | NaPsTeR: cool | 12:58 |
| danshtr|mibbit | Slart: i actually using it on my macbook | 12:59 |
| ActionParsnip1 | mas2_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Songbird | 12:59 |
| golly-gee | mas2, i don't think it really installs. just cd to the directory you extracted it to and ./songbird | 12:59 |
| Slart | danshtr|mibbit: ok | 12:59 |
| golly-gee | that's if you download it from songbirdnest. | 12:59 |
| Shoopuf | Songbird was pretty unstable, even the 1.0 version, I don't recommend it. :| | 12:59 |
| mas2 | what shoud I use then? I want covers and so on | 12:59 |
| mas2 | a + if it works with iPod, like songbird did | 13:00 |
| Shoopuf | mas2: Amarok, Banshee? | 13:00 |
| cwillu | mas2, banshee does covers | 13:00 |
| cwillu | no idea about ipods | 13:00 |
| Bert_2 | Hi, how do I permanently set $JAVA_HOME to /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/ ? | 13:00 |
| ActionParsnip1 | ipods need burning, banshee / amarok do album covers | 13:00 |
| cwillu | mas2, has an ipod extension enabled by default, so I suppose it probably works | 13:00 |
| Area52 | I wonder if there is a app that has all the features that Winamp has ? | 13:00 |
| ActionParsnip1 | Bert_2: edit ~/.bashrc | 13:00 |
| mas2 | Ok thanks for the tips gonna check them out | 13:00 |
| ActionParsnip1 | Bert_2: and add an alias | 13:01 |
| babo | how come inetd.conf is empty in ubuntu ? | 13:01 |
| cwillu | !xmms | 13:01 |
| ubottu | xmms is no longer being developed, see http://bugs.debian.org/461309 for more details. Consider using audacious, bmpx, or xmms2 instead. | 13:01 |
| cwillu | Area52, see that | 13:01 |
| borMy-Ubuntu | anyone could help me on joining windows 2003 domain? | 13:01 |
| Bert_2 | ActionParsnip1: and what am I supposed to write into that file with an alias ? | 13:01 |
| cwillu | Area52, audacious I think is the successor of xmms, which was a winamp clone | 13:01 |
| Area52 | cool | 13:02 |

| michiwend | hey! need help: can i install package "build-essential" from desktop-cd (8.10), pc has no internet connection | 13:02 |
| jrib | michiwend: yes | 13:03 |
| cwillu | michiwend, synaptic has an option to generate a download script, which you can then use to download the packages and burn them to a cd to install by hand | 13:03 |
| michiwend | hhmm | 13:03 |
| cwillu | michiwend, or ya, if it's on the cd, then ya | 13:03 |

| michiwend | cwillu, the question is, is it on that cd | 13:03 |
| cwillu | michiwend, and what a question it is :p | 13:04 |
| babo | how come inetd.conf is empty in ubuntu ? | 13:04 |
| cwillu | michiwend, I think it might not be actually | 13:05 |
| babo | i'm trying to configure a program to run under inetd but it won't work ... | 13:05 |
| ActionParsnip1 | Bert_2: just add a line that says: exprt JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/ in ~/.bash_profile | 13:05 |

| DasEi | ActionParsnip1: hm, Suse it was /etc/sysconfig/cron to make linux cleanup /tmp at bootup, not sure if it's cron in ubuntu at all | 13:07 |
| Slart | !away | Mud|afk | 13:07 |
| ubottu | Mud|afk: You should avoid noisy away messages in a busy channel like #ubuntu, or other Ubuntu channels; it causes excessive scrolling which is unfair to new users. Use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently. See also «/msg ubottu Guidelines» | 13:07 |
| Slart | !away > Mud|afk | 13:07 |
| ubottu | Mud|afk, please see my private message | 13:07 |
| michiwend | cwillu: she could download the packages... but i need help to do this in a simple way | 13:07 |
| ActionParsnip1 | desti: afaik it cleared up at bootup, obv if you have masses of uptime its not gonna get cleared down | 13:08 |
| ActionParsnip1 | DasEi: read above and its, reboot | 13:08 |
| ActionParsnip1 | desti: sorry, wrong target | 13:08 |
| Bert_2 | ActionParsnip1: it seems to work, thank you | 13:09 |

| michiwend | cwillu: no | 13:10 |

| michiwend | she lives in a hostfamily and they havent anything, but wlan | 13:11 |
| michiwend | :-) | 13:11 |
| cwillu | michiwend, downloading the debs and burning them on a cd, and then telling synaptic to load them off the cd (which is an option on the menu) is probably the easiest option | 13:11 |
| Ean | Hi all! I just ried to compile wine32 on my 64-bit system, but it fails... http://pastebin.com/d1fa6542f Why? -.- | 13:11 |
| jrib | Ean: why are you compiling wine? Use the repositories | 13:11 |
| Ean | jrib: Thought that qould make a wine64 >.< | 13:12 |
| michiwend | cwillu: mmhh | 13:12 |
| michiwend | manually? | 13:12 |
| cwillu | michiwend, in theory synaptic will make a download script as well, but it won't include dependencies that are already installed | 13:12 |
| jrib | michiwend: build-essential should be on the cd if that's still your question | 13:13 |
| Eghie | hello | 13:13 |
| cwillu | jrib, is that a recent change? | 13:13 |
| michiwend | jrib: ok | 13:13 |
| jrib | cwillu: it's been on the cd as long as I can remember | 13:13 |

| quizme_ | how can i tell what version of ubuntu i have installed? i think it's 8.10 | 13:15 |

| ActionParsnip1 | quizme_: lsb_release -a | 13:15 |
| cwillu | Area52, as far as I know it can | 13:15 |
| cmv583 | i updated and everything is ####ed! Any help | 13:15 |
| quizme_ | actionparsnip1: thanks, it's 8.10 | 13:15 |
| Area52 | cwillu: I am not seeing any place to select them. maybe i have to get an addon or something that has a list of sites | 13:16 |
| cwillu | cmv583, yes: describing your problem in detail will help you get help far quicker than 'everything is broken' will :p | 13:16 |
| easotokr | hi, I looking for help copying ona user's config to another | 13:16 |
| Gnea | cmv583: for starters, we know what you just said, and it would be appreciated that you didn't. do you have a list of what broke, exactly? | 13:16 |
| cwillu | Area52, it may need a plugin, dunno | 13:17 |
| ActionParsnip1 | easotokr: sudo cp /home/username /home/newusersname | 13:17 |
| michiwend | cwillu: do i need to add the cd first to the sources? | 13:18 |
| ActionParsnip1 | easotokr: sudo chown -R newusername /home/newusername | 13:18 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: firefox, chatzilla, get error messages saying no space on device alot from vuze | 13:18 |
| cwillu | michiwend, probably, yes | 13:18 |
| cwillu | cmv583, sound like you're out of disk space | 13:18 |
| cwillu | cmv583, which will break all sorts of stuff | 13:19 |
| michiwend | cwillu: apt-cdrom add or so? | 13:19 |
| easotokr | ActionParsinpl: Thanks, but what happend If the only thing that I need is the configuration files and directories for gnome and xfce? | 13:20 |
| cwillu | cmv583, check your vuze downloads, consider deleting something big that you've recently downloaded if possible, should fix up most of your problems (you might need to run the update manager again to finish up if it failed partway through due to running out of space) | 13:20 |
| ActionParsnip1 | easotokr: same thing, just less data, you'll need sudo to cop them between the users directories, then sudo again for setting the owner to the new user | 13:20 |
| cwillu | michiwend, seems reasonable. Sorry, I do most of my package management through synaptic, which has an add cdrom button :p | 13:20 |
| ActionParsnip1 | easotokr: ive never done it but it makes sense | 13:21 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: that i believe, already deleted everything, any help reinstalling ubuntu onto ext. hard drive | 13:21 |
| cbobach | #ubuntu-dk | 13:21 |
| cwillu | cmv583, open a terminal, and tell me what "df -h /" says | 13:21 |
| tyson_ | What command would i use to troubleshoot my nvidia video card? like to see a log of what error'd out | 13:22 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on | 13:22 |
| cmv583 | /dev/sda5 8.7G 8.2G 0 100% / | 13:22 |

| === rabeb is now known as ran22 | ||
| cwillu | cmv583, do you have much installed that you care about, so that a simple reinstall onto a different drive would be fine, or do you have alot of stuff you don't want to have to do again? | 13:23 |
| cwillu | cmv583, how big is the drive in that machine? Is it partitioned right now, or does/did ubuntu have the whole drive to itself? | 13:23 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: i have ext. that is 750GB that all imp. stuff is on. i just have basics on int. HD. It is partitioned ubuntu with 90% | 13:24 |

| cwillu | cmv583, is vuze downloading to your home drive, or to the external? | 13:26 |
| heath|work | sounds like you need to mount home somewhere else | 13:26 |
| san009 | ns register s2nd33p | 13:26 |
| cwillu | heath|work, ya, but it's an external drive: mounting home off an external drive seems like a good way to punish a hated enemy :p | 13:26 |
| === rabeb is now known as ran | ||
| cmv583 | cwillu: i think ext. | 13:27 |
| DasEi | Shoopuf, ActionParsnip1 : /etc/default/rcS << tmptime=0 , just to feedback, thx anyway | 13:27 |
| san009 | anyone i need help with my screen resolution | 13:27 |
| smeevil | hello all | 13:27 |
| heath|work | san009, what's the issue | 13:27 |
| cwillu | cmv583, "du -hs ~/*" will give a breakdown of the top level folders in your home directory | 13:27 |
| san009 | my resolution is too low | 13:27 |
| cwillu | cmv583, run it, and see if there's anything you can move | 13:27 |
| heath|work | san009, what video card do you have | 13:28 |
| san009 | i am not being able to change it | 13:28 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: pastebin it? | 13:28 |
| cwillu | cmv583, if you want | 13:28 |
| san009 | i have intel x3100 | 13:28 |
| san009 | this is the integrated one | 13:28 |
| nblracer | got a problem, sometimes (most of time) when i switch users, i get a black screen. The monitor is on and not in stanby mode. | 13:28 |
| cwillu | cmv583, might also be that firefox has a bunch of downloads sitting on your desktop (that bites me all the time) | 13:28 |
| san009 | everything works fine except the resolution | 13:29 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: no nothing but 2 icons on desktop | 13:29 |
| axisys | can I add a group to the admin group instead of the members separately? | 13:29 |
| cwillu | cmv583, k, pastebin that last command | 13:29 |
| san009 | the maximum right now is 800 X 600. it can support upto 1280X 800 | 13:29 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: one moment | 13:29 |
| heath|work | san009, do you have xserver-xorg-video-intel installed? | 13:30 |
| cwillu | axisys, not really, although you can give a different group the ability to use sudo by editing /etc/sudoers | 13:30 |
| san009 | i have no idea | 13:30 |
| axisys | cwillu: i wanted systems group with same priv as admin group | 13:30 |
| san009 | how do i install that | 13:30 |
| heath|work | san009, open a term and type aptitude search xserver-xorg-video-intel | 13:30 |
| Achilleus | hello, my ubuntu kernel log daemon keeps restarting showing the console "stopping kernel log daemon .. starting kernel load daemon" | 13:30 |
| heath|work | if it has an i on the left it is installed | 13:30 |
| cwillu | axisys, editing that file can be a bit annoying though (permissions need to be exactly right, and you should make sure to have a root terminal open already so that if the file is bunged up by accident you can recover) | 13:30 |
| ActionParsnip1 | san009: can I have the output of: lspci | grep -i vga | 13:30 |
| tyson_ | Gnea: morning gnea.... im still having the random blank screen "No Input" Signal | 13:30 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: it's there but no link to show you? still says pastebin.com | 13:31 |
| axisys | cwillu: if i add %systems ALL=(ALL) ALL , will the systems group have same priv as admin group? | 13:31 |
| san009 | 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0 | 13:31 |
| cwillu | cmv583, submit it | 13:31 |
| Gnea | tyson_: the library line-up didn't have any effect? | 13:31 |
| cwillu | axisys, I believe so | 13:31 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: i did | 13:32 |
| cwillu | cmv583, and it didn't give you a new url? | 13:32 |
| cwillu | weird | 13:32 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: right | 13:32 |
| san009 | i xserver-xorg-video-intel - X.Org X server -- Intel i8xx, i9xx display | 13:32 |
| san009 | p xserver-xorg-video-intel-dbg - X.Org X server -- Intel i8xx, i9xx display | 13:32 |
| axisys | cwillu: does not make sense.. by default ubuntu will give admin group some group privilege that cannot be inherited to systems group | 13:32 |
| san009 | the aptitude search result | 13:32 |
| cwillu | cmv583, sorry, pastebin.com, and you hit 'send', and it didn't change the url | 13:32 |
| cwillu | axisys, eh? | 13:33 |
| tyson_ | Gnea: whatever you did fixed my first problem, WoW wouldn't even start untill whatever you did. | 13:33 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: right | 13:33 |
| san009 | does that mean it's installed | 13:33 |
| cwillu | try using the ubuntu pastebin | 13:33 |
| cwillu | !pastebin | 13:33 |
| ubottu | 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) | 13:33 |
| cwillu | cmv583, never mind | 13:33 |
| axisys | cwillu: unless systems group is part of admin group.. if i could make so | 13:33 |
| cwillu | cmv583, I found it | 13:33 |
| cwillu | axisys, you can't | 13:33 |
| axisys | cwillu: hmm | 13:33 |
| cwillu | but I don't think the admin group has anythign other than the ability to run sudo commands | 13:34 |
| axisys | cwillu: that is comforting.. i was hoping for that | 13:34 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: same thing? | 13:34 |

| error404notfound | is there a way by which can do a vnc session to a system on remote location which doesn't have a live IP and the firewall their blocks most ports? I tried the vncviewer tip at http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-10sysadtips/index.html but couldn't do much... | 13:55 |
| cwillu | so apt-get update; apt-get upgrade, or use update-manager from the admin menu | 13:55 |
| gabriel_ | heath|work] i tried that guide but it doesnt work | 13:55 |
| jim_p | ActionParsnip, if i edit it that .conf, will it be seen and NOT altered by network admin? | 13:55 |
| DasEi | !pm >> agro1986 | 13:55 |
| cwillu | error404notfound, run vncviewer -listen, and then run the vnc server with the -connect option, pointing back at your viewer | 13:55 |
| heath|work | gabriel_, what about the 1st one I pasted? | 13:56 |
| ActionParsnip | jim_p: i dont believe so. i dont use wpa for this reason. too much faffing round | 13:56 |
| jim_p | ActionParsnip, so you are on wep? | 13:56 |
| cwillu | error404notfound, not much you can do to log in remotely, you need somebody there to initiate it | 13:56 |
| frozenexplosion | how do i remove a package and all its dependencies (that are not used by other packages) | 13:56 |
| san009 | ActionParnsnip, thank you. i will look into that file and see if it works | 13:56 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: not sure what just happened i pastebinned it | 13:56 |
| gabriel_ | i downloaded the precompiled driver, it is a .so file, how do i use it? | 13:56 |
| ActionParsnip | jim_p: wep + screwed down netmask + no dhcp + mac filtering + obscure ip address range (not 192.168.0.1 etc) | 13:57 |

| cwillu | cmv583, all sorts of stuff are probably kicking back in :p | 13:57 |
| jim_p | ActionParsnip, at home, i use wep, hidden ssid and dhcp disabled! that means I have to be home for someone to get some of my net connection! | 13:57 |
| DJones | !version | agro1986 | 13:57 |
| ubottu | agro1986: 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> » | 13:57 |

| gabriel_ | heath|work> i downloaded the .so file, the precompiled but i dont know what to do with it | 13:58 |
| cwillu | cmv583, just go into system | admin | update manager, install anything it finds, and reboot | 13:58 |
| heath|work | frozenexplosion, you can run dpkg -p package | 13:58 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: ok brb | 13:58 |
| heath|work | then apt-get autoremove | 13:58 |
| jim_p | ActionParsnip, i wish i could change the ssid and the wep key from their defaults :( my memory fades, so i just use the default ones | 13:58 |
| error404notfound | cwillu: I am on the remote system with ssh... | 13:58 |
| frozenexplosion | heath|work: thanks | 13:58 |
| cwillu | cmv583, heh, gksudo update-manager | check | install, I meant that to mean click check, then click install :p | 13:59 |
| cwillu | cmv583, my bad | 13:59 |
| ActionParsnip | jim_p: my router also only has a netmask which allows 4 ips, 2 are for my wifi laptops, one is for my wired router which has its own network. | 13:59 |
| heath|work | gabriel_, you put the file in /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/ and then follow the rest of the instructions | 13:59 |
| cwillu | error404notfound, run vncviewer -listen on your local machine, install x11vnc on the remote machine, and then run x11vnc -nopasswd -connect <your local machine's address> | 14:00 |
| ActionParsnip | jim_p: you probably use 255.255.255.0 which allows 253 clients | 14:00 |
| gabriel_ | ok, thanks | 14:00 |
| jim_p | ActionParsnip, anyway, i cant enforce someone else to use wep and the like the way i do, because its his wireless network. he has wpa key, viewable ssid and dhcp on. that is really helpful for my bros laptop to connect there as long as he is at his home | 14:00 |
| heath|work | frozenexplosion, should be -P not -p sorry | 14:01 |
| ActionParsnip | jim_p: its all i acn suggest based on my experience. maybe someone else can help or you can find a nice guide | 14:01 |
| cwillu | error404notfound, hell, if you don't mind a slightly slower connection, ssh into it with the -XC option, and then run "vncviewer -listen &" followed by "DISPLAY=:0 x11vnc -connect 127.0.0.1 -nopasswd" | 14:01 |
| cwillu | error404notfound, then the whole thing will be encrypted | 14:01 |
| jim_p | ActionParsnip, thanks. i wish i could figure out how nm works :( | 14:01 |
| cwillu | (you'll need to have the vncviewer installed on the remote machine as well though) | 14:01 |
| ActionParsnip | jim_p: try wifi-radar | 14:02 |
| error404notfound | cwillu: but that's for that system, right? I want remotely... | 14:02 |

| ActionParsnip | lzantal: you are probably getting dhcp on both interfaces, giving you 2 default gateways | 14:03 |
| jim_p | ActionParsnip, it is sloooow! i press a drop down menu and by the time it opens i get mad! | 14:03 |
| error404notfound | heath|work: tried that, the firewall on that network block 5999 | 14:04 |
| heath|work | once in start a vnc session | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip | jim_p: be more patient | 14:04 |
| cwillu | error404notfound, that doesn't go through the firewall | 14:04 |
| heath|work | error404notfound, it should be piping through 22 | 14:04 |
| cwillu | error404notfound, if you can connect via ssh at all, an ssh port forward will also work | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip | lzantal: if you set one to static ip with no default gateway you should be ok | 14:04 |
| heath|work | the firewall should have no baring on 5900 | 14:04 |
| cwillu | error404notfound, (you'll be connecting vncviewer to 127.0.0.1, not the remote ip) | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip | lzantal: you can test my theory with ifconfig to see the config of both interfaces | 14:05 |
| jim_p | ActionParsnip, i cant! i cant even wait for dhcp to give me an ip at boot, not to mention a dropdown menu that must open in a blink of my eye! | 14:05 |
| ActionParsnip | wow thats really bad, you got issues dude | 14:05 |
| jim_p | ActionParsnip, lmao | 14:06 |
| lzantal | ActionParsnip: thank you. i will try it. So If I would want to switch which one to use how could I remove eth0 gateway and add eth1? | 14:06 |
| ActionParsnip | jim_p: im suprised you got an ubuntu box going | 14:06 |

| cwillu | cmv583, an external drive is basically the same in this situation | 14:10 |
| heath|work | Area52, you need to install ccsm | 14:11 |
| Area52 | the gears seem to be runing nicly | 14:11 |

| lesshaste | hi | 14:11 |

| heath|work | and enable the cube | 14:11 |

| cmv583 | cwillu:right ok. reboot into my small windows partition? | 14:12 |
| heath|work | Area52, you need to configure those in compiz settings manager | 14:12 |
| cwillu | Rex, md5sum * > md5sums, and then copy that file to the target, and md5sum -c md5sums | 14:12 |
| Area52 | k | 14:12 |
| cwillu | cmv583, eh? | 14:12 |

| MidnightDevil | sup | 14:13 |
| * heath|work love compiz | 14:13 | |
| cwillu | cmv583, re: installing on the external, that link ubottu gave you should get you started installing it onto the external drive | 14:13 |
| MidnightDevil | im trying to write a small script, how do i make the "echo" effect like DOS on linux? lol | 14:13 |
| cwillu | cmv583, the livecd might be able to install directly onto the external drive, I'm just not sure enough to suggest it :p | 14:13 |
| cwillu | MidnightDevil, 'echo'? | 14:14 |
| MidnightDevil | cwillu: to show something i've written ... without interpret it as a command | 14:14 |
| cwillu | MidnightDevil, or learn python, and then it's: print "hello world" :p | 14:14 |
| Slart | MidnightDevil: I'll tell you.. on one condition.. | 14:14 |
| cwillu | MidnightDevil, it's, um, echo :p | 14:14 |
| Area52 | oh boy ... this only gos up to 1024x768 resolution | 14:14 |
| Slart | MidnightDevil: aww.. and we could hade made MidnightDevil promise never to use lol in the channela gain =) | 14:14 |
| Rex | cwillu: I don't think I really understood :( | 14:15 |
| MidnightDevil | if i write "echo" on the terminal, i get what i want, but if i write it as a shell script, it doesnt | 14:15 |
| essial | How do you configure either makefile.am or configure.ac to install a file to a folder on install? I.E. if I have a text document I want in /usr/share/myapp/ (upon make install) | 14:15 |
| MidnightDevil | oh ok, sorry. | 14:15 |
| cwillu | Rex, '>' pipes the output of the command to the left into the file on the right | 14:15 |
| error404notfound | I am try trick 6 and I get "vncviewer: VNC server closed connection" on the last command... | 14:15 |
| Slart | MidnightDevil: then you're doing it wrong.. echo will indeed print out stuff | 14:15 |
| MidnightDevil | ok, i'll have a better look | 14:15 |
| cwillu | Rex, then you'd take that file over to where you wanted to verify it (copying it, whatever), and run md5sum again with that file in the same directory as where the other copy of the files are | 14:16 |
| MidnightDevil | got it... i have the echo... but i have a ; after it... with a few clicks away lol | 14:16 |
| cwillu | md5sum my_giant.iso > md5sums; cp md5sums /place/where/original/my_giant.iso/is; md5sum -c md5sums | 14:16 |
| MidnightDevil | doesnt ignore the ";" tho. | 14:17 |
| cwillu | echo "foo bar baz;" | 14:17 |
| MidnightDevil | also doesnt ignore the "|" .. is there anything better than echo? | 14:17 |
| lesshaste | grr | 14:17 |
| lesshaste | it did it again | 14:17 |
| lesshaste | X restarts itself regularly now | 14:17 |
| Slart | MidnightDevil: what are you trying to do? | 14:17 |
| Rex | cwillu: Why should I copy something? :S | 14:17 |
| ashvala | hello | 14:18 |
| cwillu | Rex, where are the two sets of files you want to compare? | 14:18 |

| ashvala | how does anyone go into single user mode? | 14:18 |
| MidnightDevil | Slart: print an ascii art on the terminal with a few commands below.. :) | 14:18 |
| ashvala | on ubuntu? | 14:18 |
| cmv583 | cwillu: won't run UNetbootin | 14:19 |
| DasEi | ashvala: at grub > esc > recovery mode | 14:19 |
| tuchha12 | when cryptload or jdownloader is gonna be availble for linux? | 14:19 |
| Slart | MidnightDevil: use "" around the weird text | 14:19 |
| MidnightDevil | allright | 14:19 |
| ashvala | DasEi: I want no partitions to be booted | 14:19 |
| Slart | MidnightDevil: echo "\/;|" will print just that | 14:19 |
| Rex | cwillu: Oh, sorry my fault. I want to compare a file that I downloaded with their checksum. | 14:20 |
| DasEi | ashvala: mounted, hm ? use a live cd | 14:20 |
| Slart | !checksum | Rex | 14:20 |
| cwillu | Rex, okay, then they probably have an md5sum file already? | 14:20 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about checksum | 14:20 |
| Rex | cwillu: Like if file.zip = or != 5af4ab68401aae34432a0b488505be88 | 14:20 |
| ashvala | I want to run e3fsck on my /var part | 14:20 |
| cwillu | Rex, use md5sum -c <that file> | 14:20 |
| DasEi | md5sum | Rex | 14:20 |
| MidnightDevil | Slart trust me dude, i can send u a screen lol | 14:20 |
| DasEi | !md5sum | Rex | 14:20 |
| ubottu | Rex: To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more | 14:20 |
| cwillu | error404notfound, what vncviewer is that? | 14:20 |
| Slart | MidnightDevil: mm.. ok | 14:20 |
| ashvala | I want to run e3fsck on my /var part, dasei, is live cd the solution? | 14:21 |
| ActionParsnip | ashvala: i'd do it from livecd or recovery root console | 14:21 |
| Slart | MidnightDevil: or a pastebin might be easier for both of us | 14:21 |
| Rex | DasEi & cwillu: Thanks for the link. | 14:21 |
| Slart | !paste | MidnightDevil | 14:21 |
| ubottu | MidnightDevil: 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) | 14:21 |
| DasEi | ashvala: e2fsck, yes via live | 14:21 |
| ActionParsnip | ashvala: you'll need to sudo umount the partition | 14:21 |
| Jickel | I'm tired of having Pidgin suddenly exit on me. I guess I could install some other version from a developer repo, but do you guys have a suggestion for some other IM client? Preferably GTK based | 14:21 |

| ashvala | ActionPars: Resource busy | 14:21 |
| ashvala | huh? | 14:22 |
| DasEi | ashvala: unless you specified a seperate /var at installation ( see sudo fdisk -l ) | 14:22 |
| cwillu | error404notfound, okay, you'll have to consult their documentation, but we're just looking to listen on the usual port (5500) | 14:22 |
| earthling | Slart: MidnightDevil: is there by any chance a line called "stty -echo" somewhere in your code .. though highly improbable or something like ">/dev/null" somewhere | 14:22 |
| error404notfound | cwillu: what vncviwer do you use? | 14:22 |
| ashvala | DaseI: found the var part | 14:22 |
| Rex | cwillu: Got: "md5sum: file.tar.gz: no properly formatted MD5 checksum lines found" Is it corrupt? :P | 14:23 |
| edwardchuajh | Hi everyione, i need some help desperately | 14:23 |
| edwardchuajh | I was trying to get GFXboot to work, and so installed it and removed GRUB | 14:23 |
| Rex | cwillu: nvm the laast lien I wrote >.< | 14:23 |
| edwardchuajh | now my booting is messed up | 14:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Rex: you run md5sum with the md5sum file, not the file you are checking | 14:24 |
| edwardchuajh | is there anbyway to restore GRUB? the usual way of doing grub > root (hd0,6) does not work | 14:24 |
| edwardchuajh | when i do grub > find /boot/grub/stage 1 nothing is found | 14:24 |
| DasEi | ashvala: is it listed in fstab ? if so, can do it from running system , else gotta use live | 14:24 |
| ActionParsnip | !grub | edwardchuajh | 14:24 |

| DasEi | ashvala: I see, and no way to acces fstab from mac, nor ? | 14:26 |
| Rex | ActionParsnip: What md5sum file, I got no special file from what I done... :( | 14:26 |
| Jickel | cospelero: Well, for starters, have you checked the sound settings under System > Preferences > Sound? | 14:27 |
| cospelero | yes, but I dont understand much... | 14:27 |
| cwillu | lzantal, turn off network manager? | 14:27 |
| Rex | ActionParsnip: I just got the file I want to check and the correct checksum (5af4ab68401aae34432a0b488505be88) | 14:27 |
| LuXor | shit i cannot connect to internet no way | 14:27 |
| DasEi | Rex: the location you downloaded provides md5sums, too very often | 14:27 |
| tuchha12 | actionparsnip but it has an executable file of windows .exe | 14:27 |
| Rex | DasEi: Yeah, but it's not a file.. | 14:27 |
| cwillu | Rex, okay, then just md5sum the file, and compare it | 14:27 |
| Jickel | cospelero: Do you have a built in soundcard or something like a creative audigy, ie a separate slot-in card? | 14:28 |
| Slart | Rex: what happens if you run md5sum <fileyouwanttocheck> | 14:28 |
| tuchha12 | i want it a s a deb file | 14:28 |
| cospelero | Jickel, it is all set to autodetect | 14:28 |

| cmv583 | cwillu: how do i run liveusb? it' downloaded and open in archive manager but don't see any setup executable or anything like that? | 14:28 |
| Slart | Rex: you don't get the md5sum printed out? | 14:28 |
| DasEi | Rex: it's a long string (hash) | 14:28 |
| lzantal | cwillu: some pointers on how to do it without removing it? | 14:28 |
| cospelero | Jickel, it is all set to autodetect | 14:28 |
| cwillu | cmv583, system | admin | create usb... | 14:28 |
| Rex | DasEi: Yeah I get a hash string outputed, but how do I compare it? | 14:28 |
| error404notfound | cwillu: okay I installed it, its now listening on 5500, it gives error on x11vnc, what's that? what package needs to be installed? | 14:28 |
| Rex | DasEi: hard to do with ur eyes | 14:29 |

I have "server.local:/nfs_share" in fstab, but I believe it doesn't work because nfs shares are mounted when an interface is brought up, but at that time avahi isn't running so server.local can't be resolved. Does that make sense? Am I missing something? What are my options for getting this working? | 16:20 |

| DasEi | nxnn14:what are you connecting to ? modem ? router ? | 16:22 |
| _dennister | Trillian: ditto, other players work, but this 12-year-old gifted user may very well be dependent on totem, and I would like to find out how to solve the problem with totem | 16:22 |

| nxnn14 | dasei: sounds good hope this works | 16:26 |
| Jack_Sparrow | SmokeyD, Let me get you the old-repos.. | 16:27 |
| Area52 | Gnea: that is sudo apt-get remove 173name right | 16:27 |

| DasEi | nxnn14:save interfaces, then : sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 16:27 |
| _dennister | anyone available for totem help? not codec help? | 16:27 |
| nxnn14 | ok | 16:27 |
| vesayth | Gnea: I don't see anything particularly odd about dmesg, but I also admit I haven't read through this before. Just a few warnings about using legacy drivers but it's not for wireless stuff | 16:27 |

| ScottG489 | DasEi: yes, samba came with ubuntu. Just a few minutes ago my other XP computer was showing up. I think i might have unmounted something on the desktop that messed it up... | 16:51 |

| Area52 | Gnea: shut down or just plug it in | 16:58 |
| MOUD | It didn't work, It can't find essentials on the CD | 16:58 |
| vesayth | Gnea: The article you gave me was from an earlier version as well, I plugged in the new version where it needed to be plugged in | 16:58 |
| Gnea | Area52: you'll need to shut it down, plug it in, then turn it back on - the monitors require initialization from the get-go to work right | 16:58 |
| _dennister | heath|work: how do i do that? in gnome? i'm a kde-lover so i'm a bit out of depth without kde, using hardy and the non-detailed version of xorg | 16:59 |
| Area52 | Gnea: k | 16:59 |

| heath|work | jinja-sheep, That's the same CPU I have it is fine | 17:16 |
| heath|work | or great | 17:16 |

| hwilde | jinja-sheep, try the livecd and see if it works - it runs off the cd and doesn't make any modifications so you can preview | 17:16 |

| cameron_ | kubuntu is a keeper, i have been against ubuntu for some time, liked slamd64 and thought ubuntu was noobish (it *kind* of is, package repos and all) but i like how most everything works | 17:17 |
| hwilde | Area52, it should prompt you to setup twinview, or two separate xservers | 17:17 |
| cameron_ | i boot virtualbox, connect my windows mobile phone, and it will activesync and everything | 17:17 |
| Area52 | so plug my other card in now and see what happens ? | 17:17 |
| NoiseEee | cameron_: its the same but with a different gui | 17:17 |
| hwilde | Area52, I would make a backup first ... | 17:18 |
| cameron_ | where before with slamd64 i ran vbox and connected my phone and it would freeze my box entirely | 17:18 |
| Area52 | oh ya ... ya ... thats what i need to do right now lol | 17:18 |
| cameron_ | yeah i know kubuntu is just ubuntu with kde instead of gnome | 17:18 |
| justizin | cameron_: the result of installing kubuntu-desktop metapackage fyi ;) | 17:18 |
| cameron_ | i know that but i was just saying i was kind of against it until now | 17:18 |
| hwilde | cameron_, you should ask your support question now before someone !ot you | 17:18 |
| justizin | ubuntu has come a long way, and has brought much balance to debian | 17:19 |
| nibsa1242b | Is there a useful alternative to tracker? Tracker seems to work fine for new files, but older files never show up. | 17:19 |
| Area52 | hwilde: hmm how big of a partition you think i should use for back up | 17:19 |
| heath|work | JustinRyan, and tons of other packages | 17:19 |
| justizin | used to be you had to run debian unstable, or debian stable, getting years and years between, and the stable being almost not updated.. | 17:19 |
| hwilde | Area52, that's a personal issue | 17:19 |
| cameron_ | anyways, power control on my monitor does not work | 17:19 |
| hwilde | nibsa1242b, sudo updatedb | 17:19 |
| SmokeyD | Hey people. I am constantly getting segmentation faults when trying to install or remove packages | 17:19 |
| gnurph69 | I'm installing XP in a VM under Ubuntu 8.10 and having resource issues | 17:19 |
| justizin | but then, noone would accept bugs or answer email about unstable packages.. | 17:19 |
| cameron_ | power control on the monitor is essential to save power | 17:20 |
| justizin | the LTS cycle is quicker than RHEL and other releases are quicker than any other OS i know.. | 17:20 |
| heath|work | gnurph69, virtualbox uses less resources | 17:20 |
| hwilde | cameron_, system->preferences-> power management. turn off monitor blahblah | 17:20 |
| Area52 | ok to make this taz file ... i need to bood from live cd ... umm im not real sure what to do from there lol | 17:20 |
| heath|work | Area52, tar what | 17:20 |
| cameron_ | hwilde, i did, except under system settings -> display and on the power control tab | 17:21 |
| gnurph69 | heath|work: i haven't had this problem before; I seem to recall something about using SCSI rather than IDE as the drive type...? I can't find a google reference for it, though. | 17:21 |
| cameron_ | it just doesnt work, it turns my screen black | 17:21 |
| Area52 | heath|work: I wana make a back up of my whole drive exactly the way it is | 17:21 |
| hwilde | cameron_, laptop ? | 17:21 |
| cameron_ | i think the kernel does not have low level control | 17:21 |
| heath|work | Area52, download clonezilla | 17:21 |
| cameron_ | no, desktop | 17:21 |
| hwilde | cameron_, how do you expect your desktop to power off your monitor?? | 17:21 |
| cameron_ | it puts the monitor on standby | 17:21 |
| justizin | hwilde: it's been quite common since the 1980s ;) | 17:22 |
| cameron_ | as it has in the past say with slamd64 | 17:22 |
| nibsa1242b | hwilde what does update db do? | 17:22 |
| hwilde | nibsa1242b, it updates the db of files so you can locate hte new ones | 17:22 |
| ardchoille | nibsa1242b: that updates the slocate database, good for searching with: locate foo | 17:22 |
| RyanMc_ | Has anyone any links to information about making all traffic in and out of ubuntu anonymous? Not just say browsing, also irc, instant messaging, email etc? | 17:22 |
| hwilde | cameron_, justizin, I think the OS just tells the video card to stop outputting vga, and then the monitor knows if there is no input goto sleep? | 17:22 |
| vesayth | Gnea: No that didn't fix it. What I did though was I noticed when I click 'Configure Network' in Windows Wireless Network Drivers, I get a message that says 'Could not find a network configuration tool' | 17:22 |
| mkultras | hey do you guys know of a program that i can search for and download songs with like napster-like ? | 17:23 |

| cameron_ | hwilde, with low level controls probably, but currently its only turning the screen black and it isnt going on standby | 17:23 |
| cameron_ | how do i build the kernel? | 17:23 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !kernel | 17:23 |
| ubottu | The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 17:23 |
| vesayth | Gnea: I did a google on that, which led me to this (which didn't work): http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=943848. I started at step 10 as per suggestion by the thread that linked me there. | 17:23 |
| nibsa1242b | hwilde: While I'm fine with locate foo, other users are not comfortable with command line, which is why I need desktop search ( Tracker ) to work properly. | 17:23 |
| cameron_ | just dl the kernel and extract? | 17:23 |
| gnurph69 | Okay, how do I uninstall VMWare? | 17:23 |
| justizin | hwilde: if you essentially disconnect the monitor, it may sleep after a number of minutes, but the os can totally sleep the monitor, and the hard drive, and slow down the processor. | 17:23 |
| hwilde | !kernel > cameron_ | 17:23 |
| ubottu | cameron_, please see my private message | 17:23 |
| vesayth | Gnea: Also, I found this article: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ndisgtk/+bug/295892. I guess it's just simply not working at the moment? | 17:24 |
| Area52 | hearth|work: well i dont know ... i want to be able to trash my os and go exactly back to where im at | 17:24 |
| hwilde | justizin, I don't think the video card sends a command to the monitor to tell it sleep. | 17:24 |

| heath|work | cristi, most of the problems in eclipse are related to your java installation, is it only eclipse? | 17:26 |
| cristi | heath|work: i firstly installed eclipse for java, an after i installed the gcc/cpp version, because i wasn't interested in java | 17:27 |
| cristi | heath|work: however the java instalation still exists | 17:27 |
| churl | nibsa1242b: yes sir! | 17:27 |
| cristi | heath|work: what do you recomand? | 17:28 |
| heath|work | cristi, what I mean is the java runtime environment is required for eclipse | 17:28 |
| hwilde | cristi, try running the app from command line, and then you should hopefully see an error when it dies | 17:28 |

| hwilde | ax, I would do the normal install, then apt-get install xubuntu-desktop, then logout and in the sessions menu it asks which to load, and you can set it to default there | 18:04 |

| jim_p | woli, what hardware are you talking about? | 18:33 |

| ASULutzy | woli: Well, you need to not use the vesa drivers. And you need to use the Nvidia drivers, the easiest way I can think of is just to go to Nvidia's site and install them, but you can keep trying things like Envy etc | 18:35 |

| Dante123 | Hi all, trying to get 128 bit WEP encryption shared to work at my school with dell mini 9's we have in my class. IT guy didnt specify wether the code he gave me was ascii or passphrase or hex for that matter. I have replaced netmangler with WICD which gives more options, but still no go. I have tried the code as passphrase, hex, and ascii. Still no go. Any suggestions? | 18:54 |
| Jrossa | Fghj | 18:54 |
| ASULutzy | CMD_L1N3: It's offtopic, and I'm going to lunch, but I did for a while. I attended the Barrett Honors College at ASU, but I live in MN now. | 18:54 |

| ksbro | genii: ok thanks will give that a try also. | 18:54 |
| hwilde | woli, google that and find the specs | 18:54 |

| pdtpatri3k | dante123 the code your IT guy gave you ..is it all numbers? is it mixed with numbers and letters or just a word? | 18:56 |
| woli | googling up, hold on. | 18:56 |
| Dante123 | pdtpatri3k....it is something like this: #EDC4rfv7ujm, | 18:57 |
| pdtpatri3k | Dante123 thats hexadecimal .. so choose hex and type in the key and then its properly open authentication | 18:58 |
| woli | Jack_Sparrow, hwilde -- just for you to know, I always get to choose between 60Hz and 51Hz in the Screen Resolution Preference tool | 18:59 |

| genii | pdtpatri3k: "r" "v" "u" "j" and "m" aren't hexadecimal values | 18:59 |

| SiDi | lonumirus: you can install the "unrar" package | 19:01 |
| pdtpatri3k | well if its 128 WEP and its not paraphrase or hex then only one thing is left | 19:01 |
| jim_p | woli, add them in the Module section of xorg. here is mine http://7g.pri.ee/mine.conf | 19:01 |

| lonumirus | SiDi : thanks, will install and let you know | 19:01 |
| woli | lonumirus, search packages with "rar" | 19:01 |
| SiDi | lonumirus: then it should work with file-roller like for any tgz file, but i recommand you to tell your friends to send you zip instead ;P | 19:02 |
| woli | in the Add/Remove... | 19:02 |
| lonumirus | okz | 19:02 |
| SiDi | genii: no, i think its a passphrase (or the guy gave him the wrong code), but its not hex | 19:02 |

| rellis | Hi everyone. I have a fresh Ubntu 8.10 install where I can no longer click on windows after a few minutes under Xorg. i.e. I can still see the mouse moving around the screen but clicking on windows does nothing. If I ctrl+alt+backspc and crash X the mouse works when X comes back to life. Any ideas what may be causing this or where to look to debug? I already check the Xorg log and /var/log/messages, both are blank. | 19:03 |
| jim_p | rellis, vga? | 19:04 |
| jaapvisser | which kernel rellis? | 19:04 |
| Dante123 | pdtpatri3k i have tried it both ways...hex and passphrase....I think I might go with cli configuration | 19:04 |
| rellis | jim_p: No it's on an HDMI video connection. | 19:04 |
| woli | Jack_Sparrow, anything new? | 19:05 |
| pdtpatri3k | Dante123 i dont know if command line would make a difference because the GUI is doing the same .. but you can try it albeit | 19:05 |
| jthomas | where on ubuntu.com can i find md5sums for the ISOs that I've downloaded?? | 19:05 |
| jim_p | rellis, hdmi is drm inside out and it is not supported by the linux kernel at all. you will be lucky to see 1024*768 | 19:05 |
| pdtpatri3k | Dante123 and you say the guy never mentioned what to use? does others have their laptop setup for this ? | 19:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | woli, I am going to try and build a new xorg for you.. that one is a mes | 19:05 |
| jim_p | rellis, and what gpu is it on? | 19:05 |
| rellis | jim_p: Sorry it's not hdmi.. my brain is failing me and I can't remember the modern digital conenction for video cards.. | 19:06 |
| throwt | jthomas: that's very unopensource-like to care about security | 19:06 |
| rellis | It's an nvidia GPU using nvidia drivers. | 19:06 |
| jim_p | rellis, dvi? | 19:06 |
| jthomas | throwt yeah... no. | 19:06 |
| woli | Jack_Sparrow, wow.. don't delete the wacom stuff please | 19:06 |
| rellis | jim_p: Yes, dvi. | 19:06 |
| SiDi | rellis: the kernel is the "heart" of your OS, which implements most hardware stuff, and jaapvisser asked you the version of the kernel, which you can find with the command "uname -r" in a console | 19:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | woli, nope | 19:06 |

| jthomas | Pici thanks, but how would I have found this otherwise? | 19:07 |
| jim_p | rellis, then i am out of ideas why. you have the perfect setup for trouble free xorg nvidia + dvi connection + nvidia drivers | 19:07 |
| ichbinesderelch | woli: afaik, no they dont | 19:07 |
| rellis | jaapviser: just a second. | 19:07 |
| woli | ah ok thanks ichbinesderelch | 19:07 |
| jim_p | jthomas, yes. what resolution do you get | 19:07 |
| jim_p | ? | 19:07 |
| SiDi | edson: a lot of people does, but there are plenty of versions of this chipset. What's the issue exactly ? | 19:07 |
| rellis | jim_p: Again it's just mouse clicks that are failing, not all of X. | 19:07 |
| Pici | jthomas: Its mentioned here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM | 19:07 |
| rellis | jaapvisser: 2.6.27-9-generic | 19:08 |
| genii | edson: Please wait longer than a few seconds before reposting questions. A few minutes at the very least | 19:08 |
| SiDi | woli: tabs and space don't mind, its just to make it more readable | 19:08 |
| jthomas | No, I know how to do iut. I want to know what it is supposed to be. My 8.04 server install keeps failing. | 19:08 |
| hwilde | jthomas, check the cd for defaults ? | 19:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | woli, Link to your current xorg again please | 19:08 |
| SiDi | rellis: is it mouse clicks on any kind of stuff, or only with nautilus / metacity ? did you try under another environment, by the way ? | 19:08 |
| rellis | jaapvisser: Why do you ask about the kernel revision? | 19:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | which nvidia card? | 19:09 |
| jthomas | jim_p on a Debian Lenny setup with ATi drivers (currently) I get 1440x900; waiting until xorg 2.4 gets moved to Debian Testing and I'll move to that | 19:09 |
| jaapvisser | not sure if your fresh installation has another kernel but if you can try to boot with: 2.6.24 which is a bit more stable and saved me same trouble with the new ubuntu | 19:09 |

| Bear7809 | I managed to install it on my parents computer which as an NVidia card and i have an ATI card. Nothing, not a single solution works. Not even changing to the VESA video drivers. Any ideas guys? | 19:39 |
| ASULutzy | Jack_Sparrow: He said they were? Though I forget what happened that originally got him in the situation. I had him run a little script I saw someone post in the forums a while back that tells you what driver is currently in use... I think he used Envy to install them, and I haven't used that in a while, so not really up to date on that stuff | 19:39 |
| woli | Jack_Sparrow, somethings changing... the Hardware drivers started installing/uninstalled some stuff... | 19:39 |

| zetharx | using Keyboard Shortcuts, how do i make a shortcut with the modifier "Super L"? I want to use it as a modifier, not as its own command key. my Expo shortcut uses it and says "Mod4+E" | 19:42 |
| HReiser | ASULutzy what do you mean? | 19:42 |
| syamajala | Jack_Sparrow: it doesn't seem to boot the cd all the way | 19:42 |
| ASULutzy | HReiser: The proprietary drivers are available by just clicking System -> Administration -> Hardware drivers, 8.10 doesn't need ndiswrapper for Broadcom cards | 19:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | HReiser, the short answer is yes | 19:42 |
| ASULutzy | HReiser: Usually, though of course not every Broadcom card ;) | 19:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | syamajala, To get live cd to run this often helps..At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--" | 19:43 |
| Koordin | hi, why the linux headers are not upgraded to 2.6.28 ? and how can i delete all the previous version of the linux headers so as to clear my grub menu | 19:43 |
| ASULutzy | HReiser: But in my experience, 8.10 has been pretty kind to the Broadcom wireless cards, at least compared to 8.04 | 19:43 |
| HReiser | I do have BCM4312... it will work or not ? :) | 19:43 |
| diffred | how do I open an rm file? | 19:43 |
| bastid_raZor | Koordin; uninstall them through synaptic | 19:43 |
| syamajala | i probably need the noapic and acpi=off | 19:43 |
| diffred | ok I got it lol | 19:43 |
| syamajala | its an old system | 19:43 |
| SiDi | Koordin: about kernel they usually come a bit late under ubuntu, and about the grub menu, it's listed in /boot/grub/menu.lst but i think there are options for kernel listings in one of the system GUIs, just forgot which | 19:43 |
| syamajala | and its been a while since i've used linux | 19:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Koordin, What version of ubuntu are you running | 19:43 |
| syamajala | been playing with opensolaris a lot lately | 19:43 |

| tuchha12 | how can i add ccf files to jdownloader | 19:44 |
| subpar_ | Jack_Sparrow, yeah going into a guest session, killing effects and giving vlc a high priority fixes avi and makes mkv watchable. I'm sure if I set up a media account on this machine, it'd be fine.. thanks :) | 19:44 |
| tuchha12 | ? | 19:44 |
| ASULutzy | HReiser: I think that one is supported by the Broadcom STA driver | 19:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | subpar_, Well done... | 19:44 |
| NoiseEee | is kernel 2.6.28 available officially for ubuntu yet? | 19:44 |
| pdtpatri3k | koordin you can edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst to delete unnecessary stuff | 19:44 |
| Koordin | SiDi: yes i know about menu.lst but i will not just delete the entries if the associated headers are always on my computer | 19:44 |

| xenocampanoli | hwilde: No. | 19:49 |
| Pici | xenocampanoli: or just use: sudo -u, that should work just like it does in other sudo supported distros | 19:49 |

| xenocampanoli | hwilde: I am trying to execute something under someone's environment from another user that has sudo access. | 19:51 |
| woli | jrib, legacy | 19:51 |
| pdtpatri3k | ramiro cool .. port forwarding im guessing is what you talkin about that. Thats what i did and my servers at hom respond just fine. GL | 19:52 |
| xenocampanoli | hwilde: Nope. You only get it completely if you use su - user | 19:52 |
| hwilde | xenocampanoli, sudo -u somebody command | 19:52 |
| xenocampanoli | hwilde: Nope. That works on CentOS, but not on Ubuntu. | 19:52 |
| jrib | woli: why legacy? | 19:52 |
| hwilde | xenocampanoli, ssh somebody@localhost command & | 19:52 |

| xenocampanoli | The thing is, I can do sudo -u user on CentOS and get the entire "user"'s environment, but that doesn't happen on Ubuntu. I'm presuming I use a switch to get what I am getting on CentOS. I cannot find such a switch. | 19:54 |

But now i have a two ntfs formatted drives with data on i need to get back, and ubuntu is not letting me mount them (a live cd, downloaded last week).

| unperson | ichbinesderelch, I haven't changed anything in mathematica. It's just that in the past when I've done an OS version upgrade mathematica requires me to get a new password. Mathematica uses a copy protection scheme where is computes a "math ID" number based on some characteristics of your system. Then you need a password that corresponds to that math ID number (presumably they just put it through some hash function). | 20:20 |

| gnurph69 | I'm running Ubuntu 8.10 trying to access Windows server shares - do I need SAMBA, or is there a better way? I'm trying not to have to install the whole SAMBA package.... | 20:21 |
| hikenboot | hello all---anybody able to recommend an open source application that runs on windows as well as ubuntu for printing images on cdroms and for adding pictures to them | 20:21 |
| Slart | gnurph69: you really just need the samba client, not the server part | 20:22 |
| unperson | ichbinesderelch, So probably the upgrade to Ubuntu changes the math ID, but I'm wondering if other mathematica users have notices what changes specifically cause the math ID to change. | 20:22 |

| omarco | jrib: Photoshop's crop tool is way more refined and versatile, you can rotate the crop region on the fly, and you can state a target image size and make the crop region to constrain to its proportions | 20:24 |
| jrib | omarco: see if you can do that in gimp in #gimp? | 20:24 |
| unperson | ichbinesderelch, Really? Have you used the same version of Mathematica before and after updating to a new version of Ubuntu? | 20:25 |
| ichbinesderelch | unperson: yes | 20:25 |
| omarco | jrib: I'll ask around there, thanks. | 20:25 |
| gnurph69 | slart: I seem to be able to navigate the Windows servers, but it never prompts for authentication and I can't get to any network shares. is the whole client part installed by default and/or how do I authenticate? | 20:25 |
| ichbinesderelch | unperson: maybe just try reinstaling it and deleting/backuping the .mathematica folder n stuff | 20:25 |
| unperson | ichbinesderelch, Curiouser and curiouser. That would be really nice if it worked that way for me. Perhaps it's a peculiarity of my setup somehow. | 20:26 |
| unperson | ichbinesderelch, Well, I can just email Wolfram for a new password when this happens, so it's not worth drastic measures, but it's a definite annoyance. | 20:27 |
| Slart | gnurph69: I'm not really sure.. you can go to windows network locations in nautilus by using smb://bla bla bla in the address field I think.. but check the ubuntu samba docs for more info, type !samba here in the channel for some bot info | 20:28 |
| ichbinesderelch | unperson: and you are getting a new passwort without any complaints? | 20:28 |

| mas2 | jrib: yes I have created one <Super>E and then in keybinding i said that command 1 should be "run_command1" but how to execute it? | 20:29 |
| mas2 | jrib: I want to use it in screen action. So I can use the scale plugin from compiz. | 20:29 |
| jrib | mas2: <Super>E which I guess is <windows-key><shift>e | 20:29 |

| something132 | i have a sound error | 20:31 |
| something132 | anyone can help me? | 20:31 |
| mas2 | jrib: but now that I started with /apps/metacity.. would be cool to get it to work aswell | 20:31 |
| jrib | mas2: I don't understand what you mean. When you press that key combination it runs the command in run_command1. You don't need any of this to do what you want. Just run ccsm or simple-ccsm | 20:31 |
| ichbinesderelch | unperson: guess so too, lets free mathematica :P | 20:31 |

| Agent_AL | hello, could someone suggest image viewer that supports animated gif animations playback? Except for Firefox I couldn't find any | 20:47 |
| dr_willis | D3RGPS31, you mean playstation 1 game disks? | 20:47 |
| wiretapt | i've been trying to burn zenwalk iso in brasero in xubuntu and crunchbang but brasero locks up and won't spit out my cd | 20:47 |
| wiretapt | blank | 20:47 |
| D3RGPS31 | dr_willis yes | 20:47 |
| ASULutzy | Agent_AL: I think the GIMP can handle animated .gif's, can't it? | 20:48 |
| Agent_AL | ASULutzy: it's not so fast as typical image viewer | 20:48 |
| something132 | kk i know this may sound really obvious to you but how do i use paste bin | 20:48 |
| dr_willis | D3RGPS31, depending on the disk. You may need to use 'dd' or 'dd_rescue' perhaps to copy them to iso files if thats what you want to do.. the various PS emulator sites ahve lots of info on the topic i recall from a few yrs back. | 20:48 |
| pdtpatri3k | Agent_AL try picasa from google | 20:48 |
| vigo | Yes.GIMP can do animated .gifs | 20:48 |
| D3RGPS31 | dr_willis the discs can't be read | 20:49 |
| Agent_AL | ASULutzy: Firefox is much faster to preview gifs but it's not so functional as image viewer | 20:49 |
| Slart | bmhm: hmm.. I suppose you've tried reinstalling and so on.. also tried switching mirrors? | 20:49 |
| dr_willis | D3RGPS31, how are you reding them under windows? all ive done with linux in the past is use 'dd' | 20:49 |
| Agent_AL | pdtpatri3k: thanks i'll try | 20:49 |
| usr13 | something132: Dump in the info and then give the URL here. | 20:49 |
| dr_willis | D3RGPS31, how are you trying to read them under linux also. | 20:49 |
| something132 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/101283/ | 20:49 |
| pdtpatri3k | Agent_AL you welcome | 20:49 |
| bmhm | Slart: no, not yet. I compiled it myself, it worked. | 20:50 |
| D3RGPS31 | dr_willis i would just slide it in, the OS would mount it, and i'd browse to its folder | 20:50 |
| D3RGPS31 | dr_willis but it doesn't mount under ubuntu, it just spins... forever! | 20:50 |
| dr_willis | D3RGPS31, playstation 1 disks are not normally readable I though without some special tools.. perhaps read up at http://www.megagames.com/psx/psx_copy_patch_linux.shtml | 20:51 |
| vildent | Which driver is better for my ATI Mobility Radion X1400 (in a Thinkpad T60), the offizial ATI or the Ubuntu-packages ? | 20:51 |

| something132 | the problem is when i was using windows i had my sound working | 20:58 |

| ASULutzy | rito: I've had luck with that before | 21:00 |
| ASULutzy | something132: You should go to system -> preferences -> sound and try all the different options instead of just autodetect. | 21:00 |

| Slart | kabay4n: the usual stuff you can try is using some other graphics driver.. disabling compiz might help | 21:20 |
| ASULutzy | So if the drive was /dev/sdb, and the new ext3 partition was /dev/sdb1, you would want to do sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb1 (this will of course destroy all the data if there was any on /dev/sdb1) | 21:20 |

| shovi_ | im used to utorrent | 21:21 |
| shovi_ | somethin light like that | 21:21 |
| kBang | Kyprioth, wubi installs ubuntu in a folder, that folder could be on a different partition if you wanted it set that way, main disadvantage: your folder is now susceptible to windows virii and other threats | 21:21 |
| rito | i need file pipslite_1.2.0-0_i386.deb ? | 21:21 |
| Kyprioth | My problem with Ubuntu is that I can't get past the login screen. It locks up on a tan screen after the install. | 21:21 |
| Slart | shovi_: you can run utorrent in wine.. I think it's even compiled with some support for it | 21:21 |
| zopiac | adaptr: i already have a 500 or so mb one, is there any reason i should resize everything else to grow it? | 21:21 |
| rito | where do I download this pipslite_1.2.0-0_i386.deb? | 21:21 |
| Jack_Sparrow | zesss, so you are runing 4 meg onboard video ram only rihgt. | 21:22 |
| ASULutzy | jthomas: Was it the bug report that was linked earlier? The fixes I saw involved plugging in a different cd-rom drive and using that to install Ubuntu to the server | 21:22 |
| jthomas | KTorrent is great IMHO, but I liked Deluge when I used it a few times | 21:22 |
| adaptr | zopiac: do you ever USE 4GB ? | 21:22 |
| shovi_ | k | 21:22 |
| shovi_ | ill try ktorr | 21:22 |
| zesss | Jack_Sparrow ya thats all the laptop has | 21:22 |
| zopiac | lol ok :P | 21:22 |
| heath|work | Kyprioth, in wubi | 21:22 |
| zopiac | it should be fine then | 21:22 |
| jaapvisser | first click unlock estan | 21:22 |
| jthomas | ASULutzy yeah that was it :( The server is in a rack and no easy access, and I don't know if we have a PCI card or if it has an available slot. | 21:22 |
| estan | how can i specify that a user should be able to log in without providing his/her password? | 21:23 |
| ASULutzy | jthomas: If you don't have any sort of physical access that's not really any fun, you could maybe make a bootable USB pen drive and install from there | 21:23 |
| something132 | btw is vigo still herer | 21:23 |
| jthomas | i checked, it won't boot from a USB | 21:23 |
| ScottG489 | adaptr: yea i already have. i just figured it out, thanks though | 21:23 |
| something132 | he was helping me earlier with my sound problem | 21:23 |
| jthomas | ASULutzy do you know of a bootable CD that will pass the boot to the usb? | 21:23 |
| ASULutzy | jthomas: Here at $WORK we do some custom SNMP solutions, and we use customized Ubuntu USB sticks to image the appliances | 21:23 |
| estan | ah i think i found it. nm. | 21:24 |
| rito | can anyone help ? | 21:24 |
| Slart | estan: isn't there a setting somewhere in system, administration, login window? | 21:24 |
| psyferre | hey folks, i just installed ubuntu server 8.1 and it had an option to automatically install a "virtual machine host". I did so, but I can't find anything that looks like a virtual machine host :) Does anyone know what it installs and how you turn it on, so to speak? | 21:24 |
| heath|work | estan, System->administration | 21:24 |
| heath|work | login window | 21:24 |
| ASULutzy | jthomas: Hmmm, I don't know, that's a bit tricky... Maybe you could get some sort of a network boot going? It's a tricky problem... Have you tried joining #ubuntu-server ? | 21:24 |
| rito | Ubuntu picks up Epson Stylus SX 400....but NOTHING happens when I try to print | 21:24 |
| jthomas | ASULutzy I looked into that also but a network boot looks to be a headache and its not wired to our internal network currently... | 21:25 |
| jthomas | thanks I'll ask there | 21:25 |
| something132 | is vigo here??????????/ he was helping me earlier with my sound problem n now i am stuck | 21:25 |
| ASULutzy | jthomas: Sometimes the folks in there are better at helping with these sorts of problems, the really tricky ones here seemed to get drowned out by the constant barrage of wireless/video/audio/p2p questions ;) | 21:25 |

| jthomas | ASULutzy in that bug report someone mentioned it working with 'the mini iso' -- do you know what that is? | 21:25 |
| something132 | damn now can some one else help me with my sound problem? | 21:26 |
| === cmv583 is now known as altnick | ||
| ASULutzy | jthomas: You could use like, damn small linux, and try to get that booted. Then once you have that booted you could compile/install unetbootin and install Ubuntu via that | 21:26 |
| ASULutzy | jthomas: That sounds sufficiently tricky ;) | 21:26 |

| zesss | Jack_Sparrow no luck i was thinking maybee an older version of ubuntu | 21:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | zesss, see minimal or xuubntu | 21:31 |
| heath|work | eax, it sounds to me like you need the pulse audio manager so you can select the play source of those programs | 21:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !minimal | 21:31 |
| 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 | 21:31 |

| savvas | they ought to add http://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu there too | 21:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | DGMurdockIII, Wubi is not a real install and STOP demanding support, You are free to access Paid support. | 21:38 |
| ASULutzy | jinja-sheep: mp3 playing devices should generally have ok support considering they usually have disk mode, which basically makes them small hard drives... I'd suggest checking out Rockbox as an open source alternative to the proprietary stuff that comes installed on your mp3 player. The installation of it is non-destructive usually (you can pick between rockbox or the original firmware on boot) | 21:38 |

| rito | where should you download .deb files to??? | 21:39 |
| heath|work | something132, what does lspci | grep -i audio have | 21:39 |
| Slart | rito: I usually save them to the desktop.. or your home folder | 21:39 |
| jrib | rito: anywhere but downloading deb files manually should be a very rare thing | 21:39 |
| zesss | Jack_Sparrow thank you ive got a good idea now the install is still working just the video card isnt | 21:39 |
| ASULutzy | centr0: You ought to be able to just go to system -> preferences -> appearence and set desktop effects to none, I believe that should stop Ubuntu from trying to do compiz-y things | 21:39 |

| ASULutzy | jinja-sheep: Yes, but remember that the OSE edition of VBox doesn't support USB passthrough, the non open source one does however | 21:40 |

| heath|work | something132, I can't find any reason you have no sound... what are you trying to listen to | 21:45 |

| cmv583_ | ASULutzy: says no such file or directory | 21:46 |

| cmv583_ | ASULutzy: that worked but <7z not found. This is required for either install mode. Install the "p7zip-full" package or your distribution's equivalent>, tried sudo apt-get p7zip-full and says invalid operation? | 21:50 |

| sztomi | hi. is there a repo with fresh alsa builds? I don't need cvs version, just a relatively fresh one, that will work with my hp6730s notebook. I have problems with building from source. | 21:52 |
| jrib | Ward1983: and ffmpeg is in the repositories. This guide is doing dumb things | 21:53 |
| rito | yes but where is cups ? i cant find it | 21:53 |
| heath|work | something132, are you sure your speakers are hooked up right? | 21:53 |
| zesss | :O) | 21:53 |
| Ward1983 | jrib, lol yeah i wont compile ffmpeg :) | 21:53 |
| heath|work | rito, it is web based | 21:53 |
| ASULutzy | cmv583_: You forgot to type install is all, it's sudo apt-get install package, not just sudo apt-get package :) | 21:53 |
| Ward1983 | jrib, this guide is not for ubuntu specific ;) | 21:53 |
| something132 | health/work: yea properly connected because they are detected | 21:53 |

| Ward1983 | jrib, (oh and those dyne people really seem to like compiling more then package managers for some sick reason) | 21:54 |
| radicaljoe | how can you tell what version of ubuntu you have? | 21:54 |
| jrib | Ward1983: the pkgconfig from the repositories will look in /usr/lib/pkgconfig/ already | 21:54 |
| shovi_ | hey whats a good mac spoofer?? maybe with randoming | 21:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | radicaljoe, lsb_release -a | 21:54 |
| dimitars | jack_sparrow i oppened menu.lst but i dunno what to add there. | 21:54 |
| Ward1983 | jrib, but still that variable remains empty, so how can you be sure its not needed? im just trying to understand | 21:54 |
| heath|work | radicaljoe, lsb_release -a | 21:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | dimitars, there is an example of the windows command near the bottom | 21:54 |
| cmv583_ | ASULutzy: still learning, 1 month ago i had windoze ( since i started using computers! LOL) linux is a little different but very fun and interesting! | 21:55 |
| radicaljoe | thanks | 21:55 |
| jrib | Ward1983: because all those deps your are installing will put their .pc in /usr/lib/pkgconfig/ | 21:55 |
| heath|work | something132, under System->Preferences->Sound | 21:55 |
| something132 | health/work: here are some things other people told me to show them... not sure if it will help you http://paste.ubuntu.com/101317/ | 21:55 |

| something132 | i have done that | 21:55 |
| jrib | Ward1983: if you installed something to /usr/local/ and wanted /usr/bin/pkg-config to look there, then you could set it | 21:56 |

| FireFox|| | hateball: are the apps installed different from the 32 versions? | 22:03 |
| heath|work | mas2, it asked for you keyring password not system password | 22:03 |
| hateball | FireFox||: None I can think of... I run 64-bit myself | 22:03 |

| gogu | how to install usb tv tuner ( videomate u900 ) ? y m new in linux world :( | 22:22 |
| lorenzo | Slart, open a nautilus window on a certain folder | 22:22 |
| eax | user_: D'oh >_< Sorry, found the error.. I had written "keyocde 191 = Insert" instead of "keycode" .__. Sorry | 22:22 |
| eseven73 | freedomer: its actually called deluge-torrent | 22:22 |
| user_ | eax: keycode 118, does that make sense? | 22:22 |
| tag | FWIW, I have "Menu" mapped to the compose key on a windows keyboard, when I mapped it to right ctrl, right alt, or right-super(win) it doesn't work at all | 22:22 |
| throwt | gogu: google 'set up usb tv tuner' | 22:22 |
| Slart | lorenzo: I think it is just nautilus /usr/bin or whatever folder yuou like | 22:22 |
| throwt | gogu: on linux | 22:22 |
| lorenzo | Slart, thanks | 22:23 |
| gogu | y try its nothing there | 22:23 |
| mrbrdo | is there a way to see what you recently installed with apt-get? | 22:23 |

| dimitars | jack_sparrow using gparted i think i found in which partition my windows is (dev/sdb 5) now by the example i should add root (hdx,y). X and y should be ? | 22:23 |
| jinja-sheep | eseven73: He asked what's good way to download torrent file. <~~ Emphasis on the file :) | 22:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow | dimitars, sdb5 is hd1,4 | 22:24 |
| eseven73 | freedomer: also from what ive been told in here, its better to get the deluge-torrent from its website (normally its better to install stuff from repos) | 22:24 |
| dimitars | sdb4 is hd1,3? | 22:24 |
| Cadman21 | can anyone help me with barsero? whenever i start to add sounds to burn to a cd it closes or freezes. any ideas? | 22:24 |
| Slart | dimitars: yes | 22:24 |
| eseven73 | jinja-sheep: ok i thought he was asking whats a good torrent client | 22:24 |
| dimitars | ty | 22:24 |
| Slart | dimitars: grub start counting from 0 | 22:25 |
| DrZeus | hi all. THis is just a tecnical question not ubuntu-related; i can't find a reasonable explanation to what a raw partition is. Can someone explain me that please? | 22:25 |
| jinja-sheep | eseven73: He is. It's just how he put it -- I use Deluge too. (not from website tho). I'm satisfied with the one with repos tho. :) | 22:25 |
| eseven73 | jinja-sheep: ok at this point im very confused in what he wants lol | 22:26 |
| Slart | DrZeus: my guess... a partition that doesn't have a file system on it yet | 22:26 |
| heath|work | Cadman21, run barsero from cli and it will spit out errors | 22:26 |
| jinja-sheep | DrZeus: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raw_device | 22:26 |
| tux91 | freedomer: deluge for sure, cause you can specify a range of ports for it, so that then you can setup your firewall easily | 22:26 |
| DrZeus | Slart: but how is it accessed? without a file system, how the I/O gets managed? | 22:26 |
| Slart | DrZeus: ie, it's been created, it has an entry in the partition table but it's all zero's (or whatever was there before) | 22:26 |
| DrZeus | jinja-sheep: the wikipedia definition wasn't clear enough i felt | 22:27 |
| Cadman21 | heath|work: I'm new to linux and I don't know what cli is? | 22:27 |
| eseven73 | to me if someone says 'whats a good way to download torrent file' it sounds to me that they dont have a torrent client, | 22:27 |
| Slart | DrZeus: it isn't accessed afaik.. or.. what are you trying to do? | 22:27 |
| DrZeus | nothing with it actually...just for the sake of knowledge | 22:27 |
| jinja-sheep | Cadman21: CLI -- Command Line Interfere? | 22:27 |
| __MAV | Hello Everybody! | 22:27 |
| heath|work | Cadman21, in a gnome-terminal run brasero | 22:27 |
| jinja-sheep | I think. | 22:27 |
| heath|work | jinja-sheep, yes | 22:28 |
| tux91 | CLI = command line interface | 22:28 |
| DrZeus | ...and also i worked with Oracle before(as dba) and they put some data in "raw partitions" | 22:28 |
| Cadman21 | heath|work: ok | 22:28 |

| FireFox|| | How can I configure a dual boot system on a dual drive setup in RAID1 | 22:29 |
| DrZeus | i think im not making myself clear...are raw partitions usable? i mean, can data be save on raw partitions? | 22:29 |
| jinja-sheep | DrZeus: "A disk partition used in its native, raw state without having a file system imposed over it." | 22:29 |
| Slart | DrZeus: if you know what you're doing you can just put data on a partition without a file system.. If I remember correctly that was often done on the amiga because the file system takes up some space.. just using it all RAW you could squeeze a coupld of bytes more out of a floppy | 22:29 |
| user_ | ito: upstream or ubuntu? | 22:30 |

| alexandergaeta | Hey everyone. So I am a Linux newby and am trying to install 8.10 on my old PC. I've got it up and running from the disk, and I'm installing the full version on my hard drive. The problem is that when I get to the "Prepare Partitions" window of the installer, there are no drives displayed (no hard drive). When I click forward, it will not let me proceed. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. | 22:32 |
| __MAV | tux91: I have encountered a strange bug in GNOME and I just wanted to fix it myself :) | 22:32 |
| DrZeus | jinja-sheep: omG... | 22:33 |

| Slart | alexandergaeta: using some kind of weird hard drive setup? raid? | 22:33 |
| ronny | hi | 22:33 |
| blizzkid | is Dustin Kirkland here by any chance? | 22:33 |
| tux91 | __MAV: oh i see...try filing it in a bugtracker | 22:33 |
| DrZeus | jinja-sheep: hehehe | 22:33 |
| alexandergaeta | Nope, just one drive. It's fairly old, Fat32, only 20GB capacity. | 22:33 |
| heath|work | can you upgrade 7.10 straight to 8.10 ? | 22:33 |
| ronny | i uninstalled acrobat reader via apt, but for some reason firefox things its still there and tries to use it for pdf | 22:33 |
| Slart | !upgrade | heath|work | 22:34 |
| ubottu | heath|work: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 22:34 |
| ronny | anyone got an idea how to fix that? | 22:34 |
| surfingcat | hi.. I'm new. where should I go to get help with tvtime? I can't find a solution on the forums | 22:34 |
| Slart | heath|work: I think you might have to do it in steps.. not sure though.. check that link | 22:34 |
| heath|work | Slart, thanks... sure will | 22:34 |
| Dexi | whats considered hot for a GPU temp? | 22:34 |
| eseven73 | how to check for GPU temps anyways? | 22:35 |
| Slart | alexandergaeta: 20GB.. wow.. that's old.. =) have you tried the alternate install cd? sometimes when the normal installer doesn't work the alternate one will (it's text based though, so no pretty dialog windows) | 22:35 |
| Angie^ | hi im building grsec and i think ive made mistakes all over the place and the make-kpkg is taking a realllly long time so how do i revert back to the ubuntu kernel? i havent rebooted yet | 22:35 |
| Slart | Dexi: 80 C + or so | 22:35 |
| Dexi | Slart: thanks | 22:36 |
| tux91 | /ignore * join * * | 22:36 |
| alexandergaeta | Hmm. I might give it a try. Thanks Slart. Any other ideas? | 22:36 |
| Angie^ | my uname -a still says its sthe old oen | 22:36 |
| Slart | Dexi: I think nvidia at least has some temperature limits on their site.. | 22:36 |
| Cadman21 | heath|work: I ran brasero in the cli and I got the same result it froze? | 22:36 |
| Dexi | eseven73: if you have temp sensors, theres a website, one sec | 22:36 |
| nickrud_ | Angie^, even after a make-kpkg, you'd need to install the resulting deb. You're just fine | 22:36 |
| FireFox|| | How can I configure a dual boot system on an existing raid 0setup | 22:36 |
| cmv583 | i've got unetbootin working and can see ldlinux.sys on my pendrive. Changed bios and get message that it can't find kernel? tried using distribution and tried from Iso, same result? | 22:36 |
| Slart | alexandergaeta: not that I can think of now.. unless it's on board raid or something like that it's usually not a problem | 22:36 |
| sacamano | so heres a question, i read on a SSD drive if im installing ubuntu they recommend I use ext2 because it writes less than ext3 | 22:36 |
| Angie^ | nickrud: im at 'make-kpkg -initrd --revision=ck2 kernel_image' | 22:36 |
| heath|work | Cadman21, does the terminal have any info in it? | 22:36 |
| sacamano | if i have a 2nd partition just for data should it be ext2 as well? or does it not matter | 22:37 |
| frostburn | eseven73, lm-sensors | 22:37 |
| nickrud_ | Angie^, and what that will do is create a deb, with ck2 in the name. If you don't install that deb, you can't boot to it. | 22:37 |
| ronny | how can i figure what package a file belongs to ?! | 22:37 |
| Slart | Dexi: my nvidia card is 71 C right now.. just for comparison | 22:37 |
| Angie^ | kk | 22:37 |

| eseven73 | thanks though :) | 22:38 |
| Cadman21 | heath|works: no. nothing | 22:38 |
| user_ | ronny: dpkg -S $file | 22:38 |
| heath|work | that's weird | 22:38 |
| Slart | sacamano: I run ubuntu on a SSD.. I haven't done the math but I've seen some figures that make me think SSD's will last longer than hard drives anyway.. | 22:38 |
| heath|work | Cadman21, what are the file types you are buning? | 22:38 |
| Slart | sacamano: I use ext3 for my system | 22:38 |
| cmv583 | Anyone assist me in pendrive install? i've got unetbootin working and can see ldlinux.sys on my pendrive. Changed bios and get message that it can't find kernel? Anyone know why? | 22:38 |
| alexandergaeta | Oh, and also, I am not able to mount or unmount the hard drive from Linux. Is that a common problem? | 22:39 |
| sacamano | Slart, thanks. Do you know if setting noatime or relatime makes a real difference? | 22:39 |
| Slart | Dexi: makes sense.. I have an 8800 gtx so it's an older design I think | 22:39 |
| Dexi | possibly a bit | 22:39 |
| ronny | user_: thx | 22:39 |
| Cadman21 | heath|work: mp3 I believe and I'm using the setting in braserobraser | 22:39 |
| heath|work | espacious, what does ifconfig show | 22:39 |
| tux91 | sacamano: noatime will result in less data written on the disk so you might want to go with it | 22:40 |
| Slart | sacamano: perhaps.. I haven't done any testing.. I've only got a small ssd so when/if it dies I'll just get a new, faster, cooler one =) | 22:40 |

| mamma | a question, if a non admin user login, then, after close it, an admin open a new session, the update notify can be compromised for that day? | 22:52 |
| rito | Slart, imagmagik isnt on Add/Remove programs is it ?? | 22:52 |
| eseven73 | is there a way to permenatly set a process (like rsync) that if it uses more than like 75% CPU for X amount of minutes to 1, either kill the process ,2 tell it to only use like 50% cpu, 3 tell it to wait or delay until other more important proccess get done ? I know that's probably like 3 questions in one, but I dont know how else to word that. | 22:52 |
| mamma | sounds strange that only i have this prob :8 | 22:52 |

| Slart | rito: it's console based so it's all text.. no nice gui | 22:53 |
| keelow | if i want to host a domain on my ubuntu where do i get the nameservers to put in? | 22:53 |
| rito | no gui | 22:53 |
| raylu | Slart: nice gui? isn't that an oxymoron? | 22:53 |
| rito | oh | 22:53 |

| Slart | raylu: hehe | 22:54 |
| thruxton | eseven73: that would be very tricky, most you could hope for is probably to `nice' rsync | 22:54 |
| raylu | rito: don't think that way | 22:54 |
| raylu | rito: or it will be beyond you | 22:54 |
| Slart | raylu: oh.. is that the gui one? | 22:54 |
| raylu | Slart: no, just the cooler one | 22:54 |
| eseven73 | thruxton: yeah i knew it had something to do with 'nice'ing' it, but im not entirely sure how to do that :/ | 22:54 |
| TraceRoute87 | is there a way to view media through a ssh session on the remote side? | 22:54 |
| Slart | raylu: aww.. now I don't want to go to bed.. bah.. tomorrow my sweet command line.. tomorrow | 22:55 |
| raylu | TraceRoute87: is the remote linux? | 22:55 |
| raylu | !vnc | TraceRoute87 | 22:55 |
| ubottu | TraceRoute87: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 22:55 |
| thruxton | eseven73: google some turtorials, theres tons of easy ones out there | 22:55 |
| TraceRoute87 | raylu yes | 22:55 |
| rito | raylu, I guess your right i just have basically no experince with console / command though | 22:55 |
| estan | hm. is there a way to directly unpack a .rar archive to a certain location, without having to open it in File Roller first? i have a 56 GB RAR archive on a sftp:// location that i want to extract directly.. when it opens in File Roller it's so slow since it first have to read all the contents listing of the archive. | 22:55 |
| keelow | if i use road runner where would i find my nameservers if i want to host something on my ubuntu home | 22:55 |
| raylu | TraceRoute87: you can use x11 forwarding over ssh | 22:55 |
| rebel_kid | eseven73, man nice :) | 22:55 |
| raylu | TraceRoute87: google should have plenty to say about it | 22:55 |
| eseven73 | thruxton: ok ty and you too rebel_kid | 22:55 |
| raylu | rito: start now | 22:55 |

| Tenkawa | Anyone got any idea why if I use option NoDDC on a intel gma card gnome-settings-daemon segfaults | 22:56 |
| raylu | keelow: you are confused :p | 22:56 |
| mamma | sorry , someone can confirm me that the updates noify must works in my scenario? | 22:56 |
| raylu | keelow: do you own a domain? | 22:56 |
| keelow | raylu, i want to host a domain on my ubuntu machine | 22:56 |
| keelow | yah i do | 22:56 |
| keelow | i have all the software | 22:56 |
| angelo | anyone can help with and acer aspire one and netbook remix? | 22:56 |
| raylu | keelow: oh... you have a static WAN IP? | 22:57 |
| Alde_Baran | hey all | 22:57 |
| keelow | no | 22:57 |
| raylu | keelow: is it a second level domain? | 22:57 |
| dr_willis | angelo i got an AAO - but not tried the netbook remix yet. :() | 22:57 |
| keelow | how do i find that out | 22:57 |
| raylu | keelow: er, what's the domain? | 22:57 |
| keelow | its a .net | 22:57 |
| juro | hi, do you have a recommendation for a program that can make flow diagrams? | 22:57 |
| keelow | i just registered it today | 22:57 |
| raylu | keelow: then yes. .net is the first-level, so something like raylu.net would be second level | 22:57 |
| raylu | keelow: and that's not really going to work out | 22:57 |
| dr_willis | juro, i was thinking DIA is designed for that.. there may be others | 22:57 |
| dr_willis | !info dia | 22:57 |

| arionadouble | any idea why i cant see my hardrive in 8.10 | 22:57 |
| angelo | dr willis, just trying it now i did everything but i cn not get it as the screen shots show | 22:57 |
| Alde_Baran | man, I have been out of the linux world for a long time.. | 22:57 |
| Ward1983 | jrib, thanx for giving me plain wrong advice man | 22:57 |
| raylu | keelow: because updating dns entries for second-level domains takes 24-72 hours | 22:58 |
| jinja-sheep | Anybody use dvdbackup? "tool to rip DVD's from the command line" Is it excellent app? | 22:58 |
| raylu | keelow: so you need a static IP from your ISP | 22:58 |
| juro | dr_willis, thank you | 22:58 |
| jrib | Ward1983: care to be more specific? | 22:58 |
| eseven73 | sysdoc: i prefere Thunderbird :) if you havent already tried it.. it handles IMAP very well (only bad thing is it sets the wrong ports for gmail's imap which is 993 for incoming and 587 for outgoing, ) | 22:58 |
| keelow | well my ip barely ever changes | 22:58 |
| dr_willis | jinja-sheep, its worked for me in the past. | 22:58 |
| cmv583 | i've got unetbootin working and can see ldlinux.sys on my pendrive. Changed bios and get message that it can't find kernel? anyone help? | 22:58 |
| keelow | isnt there some dns servics out there that will update it anyway | 22:58 |
| raylu | keelow: then i'm not sure how to set that up. home users generally don't manage their own second-level domains, so good luck with that | 22:58 |
| jinja-sheep | dr_willis: Thanks. Will give it a try. | 22:58 |
| Ward1983 | jrib, well the right advice would have been: export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig | 22:58 |
| raylu | keelow: something like no-ip.com or dyndns should hold you over for now, though | 22:58 |
| Ward1983 | jrib, not the installationdir... | 22:58 |
| mas2 | Can anyone point me in the right direction. I got an external tft monitor connected through VGA. But when I go into screen resolution and choose detect displays all I get is unknown. | 22:59 |
| jrib | Ward1983: what installation directory? | 22:59 |
| dr_willis | cmv583, check the syslinux.cfg or whatever file the boot configs are in. and be sure its pointing to the right path to the kernel file.. Its possible unetbooin did the wrong path/filename | 22:59 |
| keelow | oh ok thanks raylu | 22:59 |
| cmv583 | dr_willis: how would i do that? | 22:59 |
| Ward1983 | jrib, dir of the sources i mean | 22:59 |
| raylu | Ward1983: no, that's not how you should do it | 22:59 |
| Tenkawa | backtrace blames it on xrandr | 22:59 |
| raylu | Ward1983: you should let the configure script detect the pkg config path. generally, if you have to set those yourself, something else will screw up later | 22:59 |
| eseven73 | !info backtrace | 22:59 |
| ubottu | Package backtrace does not exist in intrepid | 22:59 |
| jrib | Ward1983: ok... what "dir of the sources"? iirc, I just told you setting PKG_CONFIG_PATH was not necessary | 23:00 |
| Laderius | Hey where can i find a script for xchat on ubuntu to display system information over IRC? | 23:00 |
| dr_willis | cmv583, theres a file on the thumbdrive that defines the boot menu. check it out. Ive had to tweak them befor with Unetbootin. may be a good idea to read up on syslinux also. | 23:00 |
| dr_willis | Laderius, xchat homepage. has forums for stuff like that. | 23:00 |
| eseven73 | Laderius: its in the repos 'sysinfo' or something, search for xchat and you'll see it | 23:00 |
| cmv583 | dr_willis: thanx. can i get a hold of you if i have trouble? | 23:01 |
| georgeaf | hey guys, how to change regional settings in ubuntu 8.10 ? | 23:01 |
| dr_willis | cmv583, Ive used unetbootin with the 8.10 iso files befor - with no hassles.. So not sure why it would mess up for you. Some times ya just gotta dig in and read some docs and learn how the stuff boots. :) Im baby sitting so i may be in and ouit all day | 23:02 |
| Tenkawa | ok.. may have figured out a workaround | 23:02 |
| jp_sf | georgeaf: date and location ? use the date upper left and change by clicking edit | 23:02 |
| Ward1983 | jrib, damn never mind it was someone else lol | 23:02 |
| Ward1983 | jrib, i looked it up | 23:02 |
| dr_willis | georgeaf, you mean for comercial dvd playback? | 23:02 |
| cmv583 | dr_willis: what should i use to look at that file? | 23:02 |
| C0Y0T3 | hiz | 23:02 |
| Ward1983 | jrib, sorry about that, my mistake | 23:02 |
| georgeaf | no, i just want to change the location | 23:02 |
| dr_willis | cmv583, a good text editor like Geany :) | 23:02 |
| Ward1983 | raylu, well the configure script told me to set that variable | 23:02 |
| georgeaf | my location in the world | 23:02 |
| jp_sf | georgeaf: date and location ? use the date upper left and change by clicking edit | 23:03 |
| ryanCH | how does the package system work in ubuntu? | 23:03 |
| georgeaf | ok thanks | 23:03 |
| cmv583 | dr_willis: thanx | 23:03 |
| georgeaf | got it | 23:03 |
| ryanCH | is there an apt-get or aptitude? | 23:03 |
| dr_willis | !apt | ryanCH | 23:04 |
| ubottu | ryanCH: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE) | 23:04 |
| dr_willis | ryanCH, it uses apt.. yes. :) so it has those | 23:04 |
| Tenkawa | removed the xrandr plugin | 23:04 |
| georgeaf | ok anybody knows how to get a channel higher than 11 in the b43 drivers for broadcom wifi ? | 23:04 |
| w00b3 | can anyone tell me how to install encrypted ubuntu on a dual boot system? | 23:04 |
| grayhane | any suggestions for a good graphics card to use with flightgear ? | 23:04 |
| raylu | w00b3: the installer should walk you through that | 23:05 |
| Tenkawa | cheers all | 23:05 |
| xomp | Hello, I have been trying for 3 days to get my laptop on the internet with no luck. I can only get an ARPA address and ifconfig shows "eth0", "eth0avahi", "lo", "wifi0" & "wlan0". Can someone please help? | 23:05 |
| w00b3 | raylu it doesnt give me that option | 23:05 |
| raylu | w00b3: 8.10? | 23:05 |
| w00b3 | no | 23:05 |
| w00b3 | yess 8.10 | 23:05 |
| raylu | w00b3: oh, then i wouldn't know | 23:05 |
| jinja-sheep | raylu: Alternative. | 23:05 |
| jp_sf | xomp: how do you connect wire wireless ? | 23:05 |
| raylu | xomp: wired or wireless? | 23:06 |
| xomp | jp_sf, I'm trying via wired connection, but I've tried wifi too and no luck. | 23:06 |
| raylu | xomp: and it sounds like you have to wireless drivers | 23:06 |
| jp_sf | xomp: do you have a DHCP running on your LAN (loacl network) | 23:06 |
| jinja-sheep | w00b3: There is alternative installer you can use. It's text-based. However, as for the dual-boot, I wouldn't know. | 23:06 |
| xomp | it says wired connection connected but I don't get any ip address from my router, just an ARPA addy of 169.254.*.* | 23:06 |
| jinja-sheep | w00b3: You can manually set up a partition and maybe do the installation from there. | 23:07 |
| xomp | jp_sf, yes, it's setup as DHCP | 23:07 |
| keelow | raylu which of these would be best if i just want to irc from my domain dyndns or no-ip? | 23:07 |
| jp_sf | xomp: so you router provide you for an IP usually or it is just a modem ? | 23:07 |
| jinja-sheep | w00b3: I wouldn't know. I went for full-disk encryption. :o | 23:07 |
| xomp | jp_sf, the router provides the ip | 23:07 |
| raylu | keelow: what? | 23:07 |
| raylu | keelow: host an ircd, you mean? | 23:07 |
| keelow | nah | 23:07 |
| keelow | like have my ip show my domain | 23:08 |
| keelow | in irc | 23:08 |
| jp_sf | xomp: don't you mind to give the make and model of your router then after we troubleshoot your linux but I want to make sure it is a router | 23:08 |
| xomp | jp_sf, sure, it's a Belkin Wireless G +mimo router http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=203415 | 23:09 |
| === Wolowitz is now known as DrunkY | ||
| jp_sf | xomp: ok looks good and yes it surely can provide an IP through DHCP so now your linux when you connect the RJ45 (cable) network what happens on the upper right on the two networking computers ? | 23:10 |
| xomp | jp_sf, it's strange, the "eth0" has an inet6 addr, while the "eth0:avahi" has an inet addr: 169.254.*.* address | 23:10 |
| xomp | jp_sf, it shows them as connected with no error | 23:10 |
| xomp | when I highlight over it it says "Wired network connection" | 23:11 |
| georgeaf | is it possible to set a broadcom wifi card to a channel higher than 11 using the opensource drivers ? | 23:11 |
| jp_sf | xomp: default when the DHCP don't answer, ok now using the gui what is displayed when you click on System > Preference > Network configuration | 23:11 |
| genii | georgeaf: Not if it's a north american made card | 23:11 |
| mas2 | how to mount a external ntfs usb hard drive? | 23:11 |
| cmv583 | dr_willis: geany says "The file "/media/My Book/ldlinux.sys" could not be opened properly and has been truncated. This can occur if the file contains a NULL byte. Be aware that saving it can cause data loss. The file was set to read-only." what does that mean? | 23:11 |
| georgeaf | actually i can do that in windows | 23:11 |
| georgeaf | but cant in linux | 23:12 |
| jp_sf | xomp: you see something like Auto eth0 ? | 23:12 |
| xomp | jp_sf, I don't have that (I'm using Hardy) I have Network Settings is that the same? | 23:12 |
| syamajala | how do you start a terminal in gnome without a mouse? | 23:12 |
| valros | hello... | 23:12 |
| angelo_ | anyone that can help with acer aspire one and netbook remix? | 23:12 |
| jinja-sheep | angelo_: What's the issue? | 23:13 |
| Insanity420 | Ctl+Alt+1-6 @ syamajala | 23:13 |
| genii | georgeaf: You could try. something like: sudo iwconfig wlan0 channel 14 or so (wlan0 as example interface) | 23:13 |
| xomp | jp_sf, I have in Network Settings a "wifi0" a "wlan0", a "eth0" and "pp0" all of which have roaming enabled. | 23:13 |
| joejc | anyone know a good program to get videos off my tivo?? | 23:13 |
| jp_sf | xomp: and on eth0 you have DHCP enable ? | 23:14 |
| IceBall | Quick question, when i try to load the live cd, it goes through the loading bar, then it goes to a black screen that prints out I/O buffer error, and gives sector numbers over and over again? | 23:14 |
| valros | what do you mean off tivo? the box or recording them from the cable? | 23:14 |
| syamajala | Insanity420: i don't want to switch to console i need a term in gnome to run a program in x | 23:14 |
| georgeaf | genii: tried it, failed. Also tried iwlist and it only displays 11 channels | 23:14 |
| angelo_ | well i do every step, but at the end it wnt work, i dnt get the desktop i should get, duno if u have seen the screenshots of netbook remix? | 23:14 |
| xomp | jp_sf, it just says "Enable roaming mode" and it's selected. Should I tell it DHCP and try? | 23:14 |
| joejc | off the box | 23:14 |
| jp_sf | xomp: yes | 23:14 |
| vigo | Fixed the BIOS error, now , can I install a 7.04? or just wait for the shipit! stuff? | 23:14 |
| xomp | jp_sf, ok, doing that now | 23:14 |
| d0gmaz | hello everyone, i have a little problem with compiz i think.. when i turn on the visual effects in ubuntu. I get flickery screen if i use opengl screensavers or vlc with opengl rendering. This is ubuntu 8.1 with an ati x800 card | 23:15 |
| syamajala | Insanity420: actually i forgot about DISPLAY | 23:15 |
| jinja-sheep | angelo_: I have Aspire One and I used Ubuntu-8.10-UMPC for it. | 23:15 |
| syamajala | that should work | 23:15 |
| angelo_ | jinja sheep well i do every step, but at the end it wnt work, i dnt get the desktop i should get, duno if u have seen the screenshots of netbook remix? | 23:15 |
| ardchoille | vigo: 7.04 is no longer getting updates, you're better off with 8.04 | 23:15 |
| xomp | jp_sf, ok, done with that | 23:15 |
| jinja-sheep | angelo_: If you think that'll suit you. That's fine. I'm taking a look at it right now. Do you have a link for your guide? | 23:15 |
| IceBall | Quick question, when i try to load the live cd, it goes through the loading bar, then it goes to a black screen that prints out I/O buffer error, and gives sector numbers over and over again? | 23:15 |
| joejc | i want to get things iv recorded on my tivo to my ubuntu | 23:15 |
| angelo_ | i use ubuntu 8.10 | 23:15 |
| valros | I have no experience with tivo but i think it uses a standard sata/ide hard drive, it might be possible to mount and remove them, although removing the tivo hard drive would void any warranty, but idk theres probably a better way, USB or something | 23:15 |
| vigo | aedchoille: Thank you | 23:16 |
| jp_sf | xomp: ok now sudo /etc/ini.d/networking restart | 23:16 |

| jp_sf | xomp: got an IP ? | 23:17 |
| xomp | jp_sf, it says "No working leases in persisten database -sleeping." | 23:17 |
| angelo_ | jinja sheep: i did all of them but i cdnt figure out how to do the "set workspace to 1x1" | 23:17 |
| vigo | I am using the WUBI and it is kinda lameish ,,I guess I go with some LTS version | 23:17 |
| xomp | and above that "No DHCPOFFERS received | 23:17 |
| Cadman21 | is there a good program that I can manage my ipod with? | 23:17 |
| syamajala | how do i get a module a to load at boot? | 23:18 |
| genii | georgeaf: When in Managed Mode it cannot be set easily | 23:18 |
| jp_sf | xomp: it really looks like your DHCP is not replying, your cable is ok ? | 23:18 |
| georgeaf | genii: so what's the solution ? | 23:18 |
| xomp | jp_sf, yeah, I just plugged it into my macbook and it got an ip just fine :/ | 23:18 |
| jinja-sheep | angelo_: Try this. jinj<tab>. It'll autocomplete and I'll be able to see your message clearly. | 23:18 |
| jp_sf | xomp: ok ok hum ... could you sudo more /etc/network/interfaces | 23:19 |
| crazyb0y | hello, jaunty is the new developement ubuntu ? | 23:19 |
| jinja-sheep | angelo_, The workspace are at bottom right of your panel. | 23:19 |
| jp_sf | xomp: you should have auto eth0 | 23:19 |
| jinja-sheep | Right-click on it and change the preferences. | 23:19 |
| jp_sf | xomp: iface eth0 inet dhcp | 23:19 |
| ardchoille | crazyb0y: yes, support in #ubuntu+1 | 23:19 |
| xomp | jp_sf, I have "auto lo" "iface lo inet loopback", "iface eth0, inet dhcp", "auto eth0" lol | 23:20 |
| crazyb0y | no no need support, just wanted to update my laptop which is with interpid, and found that there's a new name "jaunty" =) | 23:20 |

| keelow | is bind the program i need to use if i want to use my domain for irc? | 23:20 |

| leoluz | 2.6.28 will only be released with jaunty? | 23:22 |
| jp_sf | xomp: I'm not sure but could you move auto eth0 and the iface eth0 inet dhcp on the first lines ? | 23:22 |
| crazyb0y | ardchoille: thanks for warning | 23:22 |
| puff | So here's a bit of a paradox... my laptop drive died, so I'm booting off an old, old live CD. The replacement drive finally arrived. I downloaded the latest installater ISO. | 23:22 |
| crazyb0y | leoluz: that's the reason i want to update to testing =0 | 23:22 |
| xomp | jp_sf, I have an National Semiconductor Corporation DP83815 (MacPhyter) Ethernet Controller if that helps | 23:22 |
| d0gmaz | nobody knows a tweak for the compiz problem i have? | 23:22 |
| === ZFrn is now known as Fraeon | ||
| puff | Now here's the paradox - how do I burn a new installer CD while running off the live CD? | 23:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | puff, you dont | 23:23 |
| xomp | jp_sf, I'm really not sure how I would move those heh | 23:23 |
| dude7064 | I'm trying to install apache with apt-get install apache2 but some of the files it's trying to do download are not found on the server !! any alternatives ?? | 23:23 |
| jp_sf | xomp: can you edit you /etc/network/interfaces to have the first line with auto eth0 followed on the second line by iface eth0 inet dhcp | 23:23 |
| sinbox | puff, go steal your neighbours external cd burner | 23:23 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !lamp | 23:23 |
| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 23:23 |
| sinbox | sorry I meant borrow puff | 23:23 |
| rww | puff: last time I found myself in that situation, I made a LiveUSB instead. | 23:23 |

| ubottu | jp_sf: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 23:24 |

| crazyb0y | leoluz: is there anything specific ? | 23:35 |
| ohzie | ryanakca, If it's being decrypted at all, it's happening after your home partition | 23:36 |
| ohzie | because that's where the key is | 23:36 |
| leoluz | crazyb0y: dont remember where.. but i was about add jaunty repository in intrepid and upgrade | 23:36 |
| jp_sf | xomp: you might want check you area to find a LUG (Linux User Group) they surely can help you out | 23:36 |

| m1dn1ght | Hi guys. I was installing windows on a separate partition and ran into some trouble. Despite not installing it seems it wiped out grub. I've been trying to restore grub following the directions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows however I'm not getting past the first step. Both commands "find /boot/grub/stage1" and "find /grub/stage1" and both return "Error 15: File Not Found". I've mounted my ubuntu | 23:50 |
| IceBall | Jack: it does not say, i run the cd check at boot and says bad file etc, no name | 23:51 |
| datta | jp_sf where is the alsa mixer there in nothing like that in the main window | 23:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | m1dn1ght, Id suggest fixmbr back to boot only windows and then reinstall | 23:51 |
| m1dn1ght | Jack_Sparrow: Actually - I'm sorry to be a nuisance. I figured it out. I'm an idiot (I did not run grub with sudo) | 23:51 |
| jp_sf | datta: open a terminal type alsamixer move with the arrow escape by pressing Esc touch | 23:51 |
