[00:01] <|unjustice|> zero__: if you type lspci in terminal, your comp will tell you the audio device
[00:02] <|unjustice|> zero__: "standard" is not a type of audio card
[00:02] <pyrophelia> every once in awhile after my server (8.10) does a massive lan  transfer (100GB+), I lose all dns lookups on that box.  None of the other boxes on the network lose dns and I can still ping lan or ip address just fine.  Somehow dns blows up and I can't figure out why.  Static config with my ISPs dns configured in resolve.conf.  Any ideas?
[00:02] <zero__> i know, i mean the one you get with the comp :P
[00:02] <ldskf> could anyone tell me how to "render" a video file?
[00:02] <gogereaver> treats then sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

[00:03] <|unjustice|> that is the audio card
[00:03] <|unjustice|> okay
[00:03] <zero__> i know, i copied wrong
[00:03] <redvamp128> gogereaver:  I think doesn't he need to enable restricted in order to get the savage drivers?

[00:08] <poseidon> anyone here use thunderbird with lightening?  it doesn't allow me to add an event to the calender.  it seems to be very non-fuctional (the lightening extension that is)
[00:08] <|unjustice|> zero__: that might work, but it is for Edgy...not Hardy, which I assume you are running
[00:09] <gagica> it it the fiorst time for me in ubuntu
[00:09] <gagica> so hello:D
[00:09] <|unjustice|> welcome
[00:09] <zero__> well, i will try then say if it works or not
[00:09] <Flannel> TheComrade: This channel is for support only.  If you're looking to discuss, please take it elsewhere (perhas #ubuntu-offtopic)
[00:09] <TheComrade> 1) Randomly focus changes do not work, necessitating a ctrl-alt-backspace.  Apps still run and accept input.
[00:09] <Onidemo>  http://pastebin.com/f63385451
[00:09] <gagica> it's woks
[00:09] <|unjustice|> zero__: also read a variety of reports that say restarting works
[00:09] <TheComrade> 2) The shitty old version of Skype available does not function with Pulseaudio.
[00:09] <gagica> but i am lost :D:))
[00:09] <gogereaver> TheComrade killall appname :)

[00:10] <ldskf> thanks
[00:10] <TheComrade> It's not an app that is frozen; the whole desktop gets frozen.

[00:10] <gagica> :D
[00:10] <|unjustice|> gagica: what hardware?
[00:10] <gagica> can everybody help me:((
[00:10] <zero__> unjustice, do i put that file, into the folder that it says?
[00:10] <TheComrade> 3) I have to constantly 'metacity --replace' and 'compiz --replace' to get video to be watchable without retarded amounts of shearing.
[00:10] <gagica> ati 9250
[00:10] <|unjustice|> zero__: ya, /etc/whatever
[00:11] <TheComrade> 4) At every login, a notification that I need to restart firefox appears so that updates can be applied.

[00:11] <zero__> ok brb then
[00:11] <gogereaver> TheComrade sounds like pc limitations
[00:11] <gagica> no one cand help me?
[00:11] <gagica> relay?
[00:11] <TheComrade> It's lame OS limitations caused by nerds who have no appreciation of aestethics.
[00:11] <Onidemo> kitche has deducted my problem is "this is your issue /dev/dri/card0 is not on your system" , can anyone tell me how to fix this?
[00:11] <exodus_ms> TheComrade: ff 3, there is a known bug for that issue, I have a workaround
[00:12] <|unjustice|> gagica: patience
[00:12] <gagica> ok:)
[00:12] <gogereaver> TheComrade turn off effects
[00:12] <gogereaver> lol
[00:12] <TheComrade> Yes, that *is* the solution, right.  If something doesn't work well, just turn it off.
[00:12] <TheComrade> Although, virtually everyone has this shearing problem.  Whoops.
[00:12] <Flannel> TheComrade: You're welcome to ask for support here, but please, keep it on topic.
[00:13] <exodus_ms> TheComrade: for ff restart issue try this    sudo killall -9 -r firefox
[00:13] <zero__> Well, i got anorther problem, i cant past it in that folder :S
[00:13] <gogereaver> TheComrade you need a pretty beffy system and card to not get sheering
[00:13] <gogereaver> TheComrade i had it untill i upgraded my ram
[00:13] <exodus_ms> TheComrade: sudo apt-get purge firefox firefox-3.0 ubufox
[00:13] <TheComrade> exodus_ms: the notification appears every time, after reboots and all.

[00:13] <gagica> ok
[00:13] <TheComrade> Ok, I will try that.
[00:13] <exodus_ms> TheComrade: yes, I know, follow those steps
[00:13] <gagica> good night
[00:13] <gagica> bye
[00:15] <Dexi> can someone help me create an alias that will cd to a dir and run an exec?
[00:15] <gogereaver> wolter i think only intel fingerprint readers work under linux
[00:15] <redvamp128> and now if gaca had hung around -- he could have had his question answered
[00:15] <TheComrade> Yeah, just buy a supported fingerprint reader.
[00:15] <Heliodor> What do i type in the terminal to see if there is an mysql process running?
[00:16] <zero__> unjustice: i cant copy the file to that directory, and it says about putting the line MODULES="sb uart401 sound soundcore maestro cs4281 snd-cs46xx into a file, and i cant says something about permission
[00:16] <Onidemo> kitche has deducted my problem is "this is your issue /dev/dri/card0 is not on your system" , can anyone tell me how to fix this?
[00:16] <wolter> gogereaver, oh, my works, but my question is completely other... I wanted to ask kinja-sheep if he used it, and if he did, if he had to press enter after each swipe, or if he had to enter a password for the nm-applet on every login
[00:16] <rww> Heliodor: ps -ah | grep mysql
[00:17] <exodus_ms> TheComrade: dude, whats up with the attitude, no one forced you to install Ubuntu
[00:17] <gogereaver> wolter oh wanna set it up to log you in
[00:17] <gogereaver> wolter i beleve that can be done
[00:17] <PC-Ente> hm
[00:17] <PC-Ente> can sombody confirm that the ubuntu soruces repos ar down ?
[00:18] <Heliodor> rww: bad ps syntax?
[00:18] <|unjustice|> zero__: you have to be root
[00:18] <exodus_ms> TheComrade: btw, did you get the 'restart required' notification fixed?
[00:18] <rww> Heliodor: sorry, change that to -AH
[00:18] <Lucifer|VB> Spanky_ just reboot
[00:18] <zero__> hmmm darn then, brb changing user
[00:18] <Onidemo> Help! kitche has deducted my problem is "this is your issue /dev/dri/card0 is not on your system" , can anyone tell me how to fix this?
[00:18] <TheComrade> I'm not running Ubuntu right now; I'll fix it later.
[00:18] <|unjustice|> zero__: type sudo before the copy command
[00:18] <gogereaver> exodus_ms hehe have him install slackware
[00:18] <|unjustice|> zero__: do it in terminal
[00:18] <Heliodor> rww: Okay, thanks. I find the process but i cant kill it, says no process terminated
[00:18] <TheComrade> I used to run slackware 10 years ago. :P
[00:19] <Heliodor> ah, mysqld!
[00:19] <Heliodor> explains it
[00:19] <mishkins\> script in mirc under wine... how do I describe the file location /home/mishkin/torrents/ ?? Z:\home\... Z:/home/... or just /home/mishkin/...
[00:19] <Spanky_> yes man
[00:19] <zero__> so unjustice, how do you mean? sudo MODULES="sb uart401 sound soundcore maestro cs4281 snd-cs46xx" or what? :S
[00:19] <Spanky_> lucifer
[00:19] <Heliodor> rww: thanks for all the help!!
[00:19] <rww> Heliodor: got it killed?
[00:19] <Spanky_> no problem
[00:19] <rww> Heliodor: you're welcome :)
[00:19] <Dexi> rww: is it possible to make an alias that consists of doing a cd and running a file?
[00:19] <Heliodor> Yes, its stone dead :)
[00:19] <Spanky_> you know the reboot does it all
[00:19] <Spanky_> as i said
[00:19] <gogereaver>  /home/mishkin/torrents/
[00:20] <Spanky_> like i came here for the rebooting, then the bootlogs went rebooting
[00:20] <gogereaver> if you wahnt the torrent location
[00:20] <Onidemo> help! kitche has deducted my problem is "this is your issue /dev/dri/card0 is not on your system" , can anyone tell me how to fix this?
[00:20] <rww> Dexi: Dunno, I haven't set up aliases in a while. I think you could do something like "cd /path/to/file; commandname", though. If that doesn't work, making a bash script would.
[00:20] <|unjustice|> zero__: in terminal, type sudo...then the command to copy the source to the destination /etc/whateverthenameis
[00:20] <Dexi> rww thanks
[00:20] <Jason2gs> Hi guys. Lately, my Xorg has been sporadically restarting, leaving the following message in my syslog: Jan 20 19:13:09 mycomputer2 gdm[11648]: WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0
[00:20] <TheComrade> Is there something I'm missing or do I really have to specify "United States" in Skype each and every time I want to make a call?
[00:20] <mishkins\> gogereaver: before I was describing as C:\torrents when that was where it was stored... so wine will know it's Z drive and you don't need to mention it??? cause I think it looks at it from a windows perspective like windows is the os
[00:20] <Jason2gs> I was hoping someone could give me a hand with it.
[00:21] <gogereaver> mishkins oh with wine you do
[00:21] <zero__> hmm, whats root password? :S
[00:21] <mishkins\> gogereaver: Z:/ or Z:\ ?

[00:22] <Spanky_> reboot ur system
[00:22] <gogereaver> mishkins same as it looks in linux
[00:22] <Fred1448> Back... restarted the ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. didn't fix the problem :(
[00:22] <Spanky_> you will see the password hidden in the main screen
[00:22] <Heliodor> TheComrade: it enables me to run Photoshop with important plugin, something i cant do on OS X :-)
[00:22] <Onidemo> kitche has deducted my problem is "this is your issue /dev/dri/card0 is not on your system" , can anyone tell me how to fix this?
[00:23] <mishkins\> gogereaver: so forward slash then... I tryed backslash because someone told me it was that and it said can't create dirrectory... it was either the slash was wrong or the permission I tryed fixing both

[00:24] <usser> Heliodor: no. the owner doesnt change simply because someone else edited a file
[00:24] <Spanky_> np bro :)
[00:25] <Heliodor> usser: Ah, thanks!! :D
[00:25] <rww> Dexi: yeah, put the alias in .bashrc, then close your current terminal and reopen it.
[00:25] <cereal|work> so any suggestions for a decent im program?  pidgin crashes ALL the time for me :(
[00:25] <rww> Dexi: you can do something like "source ~/.bashrc" too, I think
[00:25] <Spanky_> any people interested in help ??
[00:25] <Onidemo>  /dev/dri/card0 is not on my system , can anyone tell me where to get it? Please? I don't want to go back to Windows >.>
[00:25] <Lucifer|VB> cereal|work: try clean install
[00:25] <Dexi> rww: oh hah thanks thats much better than doing a full reboot
[00:25] <Spanky_> im a unix specialist
[00:25] <Spanky_> ...
[00:25] <Spanky_> :D
[00:25] <Spanky_> shoot me :D
[00:25] <Heliodor> Umm... i changed the skin in ubuntu, but all apps that run with root are unskinned... how do i fix that?
[00:25] <FloodBot1> Spanky_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:25] <usser> Heliodor: no problem
[00:26] <usser> Heliodor: you have to set the same skin for the root

[00:26] <Spanky_> Jason2gs: try a reboot
[00:26] <zero__> right?
[00:26] <Spanky_> trust me that will work
[00:26] <Lucifer|VB> ic3fr0g: try clea ninstall
[00:26] <Heliodor> usser: aah, of course!

[00:28] <Heliodor> Umm, there is no windows irc here, only windows 7 with 4 users.
[00:28] <Flannel> Heliodor: ##windows
[00:28] <ratpoison> Heliodor: you need to install the the themes on /usr/share/themes. Copy the files there (you need root privileges for that) Choose the theme from appearance after that
[00:28] <ic3fr0g> hello,,, i am playing a game named WoP = World Of Padman, and i dont know why but game its kinda crashing some way, when i playing normally the window of the game  is unmaximized, and dont accept commands like ALT+F10 , ALT+F9 , ALT+F5, im using Ubuntu Gnome, its any command that i can do to terminate the process or to fix it or something that i dont need to make REBOOT.?

[00:29] <Heliodor> ratpoison: Ah, thanks for the tip!!
[00:29] <Onidemo> Sigh. Looks like back to winXP =(.
[00:30] <chris78v> i need help installing a game called civilization 4. the game is awesome but i can not run directx,
[00:30] <Heliodor> Onidemo: why?
[00:30] <mishkins\> its set to use default color depth
[00:30] <msutton> Whats the aptitude package called that has the 32bit headers so I can run 32 bit apps on x86 64 ubuntu?
[00:30] <Dr_willis> Onidemo,  Dri is a feature of the video card drivers that gets enabled. If they properly support the 3d stuff.
[00:30] <Onidemo> Heliodor: No one seems to have an answer for how i can download DRI or something. Im stuck in Console, can't get to GUI
[00:30] <Lucifer|VB> Spanky|Reboot: hows rebooting
[00:30] <Spanky|Reboot> good good
[00:30] <Heliodor> Onidemo: DRI??
[00:30] <chris78v> ﻿i need help installing a game called civilization 4. the game is awesome but i can not run directx,
[00:30] <Onidemo> Dr_willis: Computer was working, after hibernation every time i reboot im stuck in console
[00:30] <Dr_willis> Onidemo,  You need to proerly setup the video card drivers.. and with some cards  that can be an annoyance.
[00:31] <Lucifer|VB> anyone need a REBOOT ?
[00:31] <rww> chris78v: According to http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=8788 it should work in WINE if you have 3D acceleration working in Ubuntu. See that page for details
[00:31] <Spanky|Reboot> Onidemo: try rebooting again please
[00:31] <Fred1448> Sorry, not to sound impatient, but am I 'in-line' or do I need to restate my issue?
[00:31] <Dr_willis> Onidemo,   one of the many reasons i never use Hibernation any more.
[00:31] <chris78v> ﻿i need help installing a game called civilization 4. the game is awesome but i can not run directx,
[00:31] <Dr_willis> !appdb | chris78v
[00:31] <Spanky|Reboot> chris78v: try a clean install with drivers on it
[00:31] <rww> mishkins\: There's an option in Terminal Server Client to change the default color depth. Look in Display > Colors on the window that appears when you open it.
[00:32] <wolter> how do i know the version of pam?
[00:32] <Spanky|Reboot> wolter: do a clean install and check
[00:32] <TheComrade> chris78v, you are much better off running the game under Windows rather than spend time trying to get it to run (buggy) on Linux.
[00:32] <Lucifer|VB> die gasten zijn echt maf ouwe
[00:32] <msutton> Whats the aptitude package called that has the 32bit headers so I can run 32 bit apps on x86 64 ubuntu?
[00:32] <Lucifer|VB> Spanky|Reboot
[00:32] <Spanky|Reboot> echt he hahahah
[00:32] <al_capone> !listen
[00:32] <Lucifer|VB> roboot tha place
[00:32] <al_capone> !codecs
[00:32] <wolter> Spanky|Reboot, what do you mean? i just want to know the version of my pam, Is there no command to do it?
[00:32] <Dr_willis> chris78v  You may wan tto try out the 'FreeCiv' and 'FreeCol' Games :) they are similer to that kind of game.
[00:32] <Flannel> wolter: He's just trolling.  Ignore him.
[00:32] <exodus_ms> TheComrade: dude, just leave man,
[00:33] <Onidemo> Can someone tell me how to reinstall the video card drivers for an "ATI Raedon 9600 pro turbo" ?
[00:33] <Onidemo> from console
[00:33] <zero__> unjustic, i finded a topic or something while googling, can it be that skype and flash plugin makes this?
[00:33] <_Vi_> why would he leave? Those kinds of trolls are paid by M$, they have no intentions on going anywhere exodus_ms ... I'm half joking.
[00:34] <wolter> Flannel, do you know the real answer?
[00:34] <TheComrade> I am only attempting to save ubuntu users some frustration.  I do it out of charity.
[00:34] <exodus_ms> TheComrade: your frustrated because your system is not working the way you want, so your angry and want to vent here, well don't, take it somewhere else please
[00:34] <Flannel> TheComrade: Again, You're welcome to ask questions and get support, but please, keep it on topic.  This is not the place for complaints.
[00:34] <mike12> hey does anyone know a command for terminal that is somthing like sudo apt-get -configure - a
[00:34] <Dr_willis> Onidemo,  with ati cards. normally they use the 'ati' or 'fglrx' drivers - ati is the included/open source driver that does not fully support all features.. but it should work for most all cards.  I dont have any ati cards any more. So im not sure what the 9600 needs.
[00:34] <TheComrade> exodus_ms, I actually have attempted to run Civ 4 under Linux.  And it's not worth the effort.
[00:34] <mike12> i forgot what it was
[00:34] <rww> mike12: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a
[00:34] <rww> mike12: that?
[00:35] <exodus_ms> TheComrade: again 'ot' there arre plenty of other channels to discuss these issues
[00:35] <ic3fr0g> hello,,, i am playing a game named WoP = World Of Padman, and i dont know why but game its kinda crashing some way, when i playing normally the window of the game  is unmaximized, and dont accept commands like ALT+F10 , ALT+F9 , ALT+F5, im using Ubuntu Gnome, its any command that i can do to terminate the process or to fix it or something that i dont need to make REBOOT.? Thanks.
[00:35] <rww> wolter: from command line or in GNOME?
[00:35] <Onidemo> Dr_willis: ok thank you,  Can anyone else tell me how to reinstall the video card drivers for an"ATI Raedon 9600 pro turbo" ?
[00:35] <mike12> will that fix my update manager
[00:35] <mike12> rww
[00:35] <Jason2gs> Guys, can someone tell me what this means in my syslog? It happens after my Xorg sporadically restarts. Jan 20 19:13:09 mycomputer2 gdm[11648]: WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0
[00:35] <TheComrade> exodus_ms, it's not OT, it's 'support'.  Blow me.
[00:35] <rww> mike12: You haven't said what's wrong with it, so I don't know.
[00:36] <exodus_ms> TheComrade: take a break man, come back when you have cooled off abit
[00:36] <Heliodor> Wooo... this is an annoyance indeed
[00:36] <mike12> it says that the package i installed on update has un met dependencies rww
[00:36] <TheComrade> Patience.
[00:36] <Dr_willis> Onidemo,  for starters you may want to just 'move' your  /etc/X11/xorg.conf  to a backup file.. with a cimmand like..   'sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf  /etc/X11/xorg.conf.BACKUP'  then restart the X server (or reboot)
[00:36] <Gerinych> i tried to to a complete removal on all grub2 packages but it nearly cleared out my grub.conf and still boots grub2 for some reason even though i installed grub-gfxboot
[00:36] <Heliodor> gnome-look-panel randomly crashes when installing themes and then i cant re-install them
[00:37] <msutton> Whats the aptitude package called that has the 32bit headers so I can run 32 bit apps on x86 64 ubuntu?
[00:37] <mike12> mike12
[00:37] <zero__> ok, i cant make it to work :(
[00:37] <rww> mike12: Open up a terminal and do "sudo apt-get update", then do "sudo apt-get upgrade", then copy the entire output from both commands to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and tell me the link to the created paste.
[00:37] <w3wsrmn> msutton: ia32-libs
[00:37] <mike12> rww how do i copy it to a link is it in one of the menus
[00:37] <msutton> Thank you w3wsrmn
[00:38] <Onidemo> Dr_Willis: ok that much is done, now i just need someone to help me reinstall the video card lol
[00:38] <|unjustice|> zero__: try google searching for open source drivers for your audio card
[00:38] <zero__> what was the command for checking the device?
[00:38] <Dr_willis> Onidemo,  you are thinking in windows terms.. by moving that file.. X will 'redetect' the video card. and MIGHT set it up properly...
[00:39] <|unjustice|> zero__: lspci
[00:39] <rww> mike12: Run the two commands. You'll get a bunch of text on your screen. Do Edit > Select All, Edit > Copy. Open http://paste.ubuntu.com/ in your web browser. Click inside the "Content" box and do Edit > Paste.
[00:39] <|unjustice|> zero__: you can also type history and get all of the previous 100 commands
[00:39] <mike12> i cant open my web browser though
[00:39] <zero__> aha thanks
[00:39] <Gerinych> can someone help me reinstall grub bootloader
[00:39] <|unjustice|> zero__: also, the up arrow will automatically prompt the previous command if you want to run it

[00:47] <Flannel> Tetracomm: thinkfinger is what handles it.  I believe the package is libpam-thinkfinger
[00:47] <Tetracomm> Thank you.
[00:48] <Rencx> what can be the problem?
[00:48] <deadowl> chris78v, open up terminal under applications->accessories and type into the shell: sudo apt-get install wine
[00:48] <deadowl> anyone know where the visual system beep option is?
[00:48] <ortsvorsteher> Rencx: did you set the right language for your system?
[00:48] <Robbie_Crash> Is there a way to pause cron from running jobs?
[00:49] <Tetracomm> Flannel: I am seeing that Thinkfinger is for a particular scanner?
[00:49] <deadowl> Robbie_Crash, not being on that user, or setting cron not to be on. I don't know if killing cron might work... probably wouldn't be the best idea.
[00:49] <Heliodor> ooo... xampp have a backup feature now, nice
[00:49] <Rencx> ortsvorsteher: system i want use in English
[00:49] <sieken> no volume boost?
[00:49] <Flannel> Tetracomm: It's for a few different types, not just one.  But I'm not up-to-date on the specifics.
[00:50] <ortsvorsteher> Rencx: which language is the second you need to set?
[00:50] <Tetracomm> Ok.
[00:50] <Rencx> ortsvorsteher: can i chage like regional setings like on WIndows second is Latvian
[00:50] <Robbie_Crash> deadowl it's a root cron job, so it will automatically run, I just want all cron jobs that are supposed to run tonight to not run

[00:57] <Robbie_Crash> PC_Nerd what do you mean, unmount partitions higher than five when nothing is mounted?

[01:02] <Robbie_Crash> How can I make all cron jobs sleep for 24 hours?
[01:03] <Dr_willis> Robbie_Crash,  you could just stop the cron service  manually for a day :) and restart it later
[01:03] <jsurfer> ortsvorsteher, ubottu: I have installed ubuntu 8.10 64bits alternative cd and I can't get connected through the wireless
[01:03] <jsurfer> all previous versions have worked perfectly
[01:03] <Robbie_Crash> Dr_willis I'll forget :( and I can't set up a cron job to restart it... Woe is me... I guess that's the best option
[01:03] <ortsvorsteher> jsurfer: ubottu is a bot. just feel free to ask the channel :)
[01:03] <jsurfer> the wireless connection process starts
[01:04] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | jsurfer
[01:04] <jsurfer> sorry
[01:04] <Dr_willis> Robbie_Crash,  write a little script that will restart it in 24 hrs. :)
[01:04] <_Vi_> Robbie_Crash: there is a GUI for cron, not very many people know about, gnome-schedule
[01:04] <deadowl> redvamp128, it aint there
[01:04] <jsurfer> ortsvorsteher, I just can't get the wireless connection to finish the connection process
[01:04] <n8tuser> Robbie_Crash -> and you can disable cron via  /etc/init.d/cron stop
[01:04] <jsurfer> I have googled for similar problems with my wireless device
[01:04] <jsurfer> 02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection (rev 61)
[01:04] <ortsvorsteher> jsurfer: just feel free to talk to the channel. which interface you use fore wireless? did you searched the blacklist at first?

[01:05] <jsurfer> ortsvorsteher: i've seen a lot of people with problems with the same device
[01:05] <Flannel> KenBW2: #ubuntu+1 for Jaunty questions, thanks

[01:05] <_Vi_> that kinda of "thinking" is what forces me to not upgrade and to stick with LTS release's
hey the comand you had me do
[01:06] <ortsvorsteher> jsurfer: which device is it? does it have a name? ;)
[01:06] <_Vi_> new != always = better
[01:06] <_Vi_> uriel_: ?
 it screwed everything up
[01:06] <_Vi_> what did?
 i cant even use the add features function
[01:06] <ratpoison> Hello! anybody know what this http://pastebin.com/m69cc4e49 is? 8.10 amd64 user. Symptoms are: system doesn't shut down properly, nautilus crashes and won't launch and dvds won't mount
[01:06] <jsurfer> ortsvorsteher: it's a Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection (rev 61)
[01:06] <_Vi_> uriel_: are you using sudo before installing things?
[01:07] <jsurfer> I've googled and a lot of people has reported problems with this same version
[01:07] <uriel_> yes
 yes
[01:07] <_Vi_> uriel_: can you pastebin the errors?
[01:07] <Robbie_Crash> If I pipe a sudo command through sleep, and have just issued the sudo command, will it execute with sudo priviledges if the sudo timeout has expired?
 i just copied ur comands into the terminal
[01:07] <deadowl> it's in sound preferences, it's just more hidden than before
[01:07] <ortsvorsteher> !blacklist | jsurfer
 im prety new to linux so isk what that is
[01:07] <geeksquad> clear
[01:08] <_Vi_> uriel_: 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-drivers' would not screw everything up...dont use the quote marks
[01:08] <jsurfer> my wiereless problem is that it tries to connect to the wireless network I choose, I get the 2 green balls and it just fails to connect
[01:08] <geeksquad> can wine run the ms zune programs
 that much i do know
[01:08] <ortsvorsteher> jsurfer: i am not familiar with wireless devices. please take a look at the web, google the device or search in ubuntu forums, may there you find at first a solution for your problem
[01:08] <_Vi_> !winedb
[01:09] <_Vi_> oh gee
 i deleted them before i hit enter
[01:09] <MK13> how do you remove files from apt-get (the ones that let you re-install w/out having to re-download?
[01:09] <jsurfer> ortsvorsteher: I would add the wireless to the blacklist if that's the case?
[01:09] <jsurfer> i mean, the module?
[01:09] <_Vi_> !wine | geeksquad
[01:09] <geeksquad> !AppDB
[01:09] <_Vi_> well uriel_ I would need a pastebin of your errors, but saying everything is screwed up will not help you
[01:09] <ortsvorsteher> jsurfer: at first take a look, may it is in the blacklist. if not, look in whitelist for your device. after that search the web for a solution :)
 ok well ima restart see if that solves anythin
[01:10] <jsurfer> what's the whitelist?
[01:10] <_Vi_> uriel_: probably not necessary...thats a windows concept, but ok
[01:10] <jsurfer> ortsvorsteher:what's the whitelist? i hanve't heard about it
[01:10] <ortsvorsteher> jsurfer: in whitelist you find devices which will work in ubuntu
[01:10] <Xacarith> has any one had any luck setting up multi button laser mice in linux, in particular a logitech mx400?
[01:10] <jsurfer> I will try them both
[01:10] <ortsvorsteher> yes
[01:10] <jsurfer> ortsvorsteher: cool... thaks a lot
[01:11] <ratpoison> Hello! anybody know what this http://pastebin.com/m69cc4e49 is? 8.10 amd64 user.

[01:11] <KenBW2> anyone else having problems accessing ubuntu+1?
[01:11] <Gerinych> i tried reinstalling grub using super grub disk, but now i get error 21 when i try to boot grub
[01:11] <letalis> is there a way to find out the MAC address on an ethernet card in ubuntu?
[01:11] <serengeti> Hi, is it possible to disable apt-xapian-index? I have installed intrepid on an old PIII laptop with only 384 mb of ram... when the update manager gets a new package list, the indexer eats up about 60 megs and the system becomes almost unusable (LOTS of thrashing)
[01:12] <IndyGunFreak> Gerinych: why don't you just use a live cd to reinstlal grub?
[01:12] <jslootbeek> letalis: ifconfig ethX where X is the number of your ethernet card
[01:12] <Gerinych> indygunfreak: i don't know how
[01:12] <IndyGunFreak> Gerinych: hang on.
[01:12] <letalis> cool ty
[01:13] <Spawn> i cant get ubuntu to live boot into x in my other computer its using a ati card
[01:13] <jslootbeek> letalis: look for the HWaddr
[01:13] <Spawn> ?
[01:13] <DaveW> hey, i have a problem described here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1043754&highlight=gui%2Fdisplay but not getting any responses, can someone help me with it?
[01:13] <Absolute1> Will a fresh installation of 8.10 be any different than an upgrade from an 8.4 installation?
[01:13] <IndyGunFreak> Gerinych: follow the "quick start" instructions..  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows?action=show&redirect=RestoreGrub
[01:13] <cweigle> Does anyone know of a map editor for OpenArena that runs on linux?
[01:13] <letalis> yeah i thought there had to be a way to do it, ive even used that before but i havent done it in so long that i forgot about it LOL
[01:13] <jslootbeek> Absolute1: no, other than you losing your personal data
 hi can i save my data when i make new install?
[01:14] <Absolute1> jslootbeek: Why would personal data be lost?
[01:14] <PC_Nerd> how do I make sure that ALL devices are unmountedd, because gparted gives the error: "Please unmount any logical partitions having a number higher than 5"      I dont beleive I have any filesystems mounted, thanks.
[01:14] <IndyGunFreak> PC_Nerd: are you doing this from a live CD?
[01:14] <Gerinych> indygunfreak: if i boot ubuntu from a live cd, does the system recognize the cd as a hard drive?
[01:14] <jslootbeek> Absolute1: if you do a fresh install, it will generally format your harddrive, if you don't do that it's not really a "fresh" install, so it would be an upgrade
[01:14] <PC_Nerd> sort of - live USB
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> Gerinych: no, just follow the instructions
[01:15] <rdw200169> Absolute1: not really, though it generally makes for a cleaner system to do a fresh install.  one point, though.  either mount your /home on a separate partition, or back it up before you start fresh, if that's what you decidee
[01:15] <jslootbeek> Absolute1: unless your personal data is on external storage, ofcourse
[01:15] <Absolute1> jslootbeek: sorry didn't understand what you meant. :)
[01:15] <PC_Nerd> Im attempting to wipe everything except sda1 and sda7, move sda7 to sda2 and reallocate the remaining 60gb to ubuntu.
[01:15] <PC_Nerd> * on a fresh ubuntu install
[01:15] <jslootbeek> Absolute1: no worries
[01:15] <rdw200169> Absolute1: because your /home stores just about 99% of the wacky GUI configurations you've made, among other user-specific things
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> PC_Nerd: depending on the size of those partitions, that will take an enormous amount of time
[01:16] <rdw200169> Absolute1: i've had the same /home for 3 years without a problem, across every upgrade, or fresh install
[01:16] <PC_Nerd> IndyGunFreak: time isnt the issue, the "Please unmount any logical partitions having a number higher than 5" is the main issue.
[01:16] <Gerinych> indygunfreak: well then i'm getting stuck on the find /boot/grub/stage1 part, i got 2 results and i don't know which one to use
[01:16] <Absolute1> I just installed a 8.4 installation, i didnt have the 810
[01:16] <rdw200169> Absolute1: it always remembers my panel setup correctly for example
[01:16] <Absolute1> and now i am upgrading
[01:16] <IndyGunFreak> Gerinych: what are the results?
[01:16] <Absolute1> rdw200169: well all that is in your .gnome dir
[01:16] <jslootbeek> Absolute1: if you havn't really done anything, an upgrade shouldn't hurt.
[01:16] <Gerinych> indygunfreak: (hd1,0), (hd2,0)
[01:16] <wolter> samba is not finding some windows xp machines on my network... what should i do?
[01:16] <Absolute1> that will stay the same on any distro as well
[01:16] <PC_Nerd> I need to make sure that the data from sda1 and sda7 arent deleted, but i have backups in case.
[01:17] <rdw200169> Absolute1: yeah, but the other . directories do stuff too, like .gconf
[01:17] <IndyGunFreak> Gerinych: you have two hard drives, correct?
[01:17] <wolter> they can find each other, but i can't find them from my ubuntu machine
[01:17] <jslootbeek> Absolute1: chances are, if you've made lots of customizations, upgrades will probably break something
[01:17] <Absolute1> upgrade takse 40 minutes :(
[01:17] <Gerinych> indygunfreak: yes
[01:17] <Absolute1> install takes 10
[01:17] <Absolute1> :)
[01:17] <rdw200169> Absolute1: for example, .mozilla is a definite keeper ;)
[01:17] <kenalex> i need some advice on which system is best to use ubunut to run database server for development purpoese and virtualise windows OS (XP and windows 2003). 1) system with athlon x2 6400 ,4GB PC 5300 RAM ,Geforce 8600 GT or Intel Core2 7200 (2.53GHZ) 8GB PC6400 Ram ,radeon 3850
[01:17] <IndyGunFreak> Gerinych: which one is set to boot first?.. hd1 or 2?
[01:17] <rdw200169> Absolute1: I would not be happy if i didn't have my 3000 bookmarks ;)
[01:17] <Rudd-O> hello there, a GUI program to convert AVI MJPEG to AVI DIVX ?
[01:18] <KenBW2> rdw200169: Opera Link is your friend
[01:18] <MK13> how do you delete the files left after removing an application via apt-get (the ones that allow you to reinstall w/out re-downloading?)
[01:18] <Abed> guys i have a quick question, when i was using fedora and its terminal when i run a command for example ls -l and when i select a certain line , i could drag and drop it but not anymore on ubuntu's so can i anyone help
[01:18] <jslootbeek> kenalex: IMO Intel has better virtualization support if you're planning on using KVM. I havn't done much AMD work, though, so my opinion might be moot.
[01:18] <PC_Nerd> I just ran "sudo umount /dev/sda*" and all partitions are not mounted, however it still says that partitions higher than 5 are mounted.
[01:18] <Rudd-O> MK13: aptitude clean I think
[01:18] <rdw200169> KenBW2: ah, but i don't like Opera
[01:18] <MK13> kk, thnx
[01:19] <Gerinych> indygunfreak: not even sure, when i got the error, i used "setup (hd0)" command
[01:19] <KenBW2> rdw200169: terrible
[01:19] <rdw200169> KenBW2: i've tried it, so don't hate!
[01:19] <rdw200169> KenBW2: i like firefox more
[01:19] <IndyGunFreak> Gerinych: which obviously isn't right.. i'd try hd1
[01:19] <KenBW2> rdw200169: what's to not like?
[01:19] <_Vi_> operas nice just not enough extensions like firefox :)
[01:19] <cweigle> Does anyone know of a map editor for OpenArena that runs on linux?
[01:20] <KenBW2> rdw200169: although i dont like its closed source-ness
[01:20] <PC_Nerd> *** It appears that swap space was "mounted" so i had to remove it to remove "lower" partitions
[01:20] <rdw200169> KenBW2: this is a debate that has no end, so let's stop
[01:20] <KenBW2> rdw200169: good plan
[01:20] <linux> hey this is the ubuntu irc chat right?
[01:20] <Flannel> linux: This is the Ubuntu support channel, yes.  Chat is in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:20] <_Vi_> !welcome | linux
[01:21] <linux> thank you
[01:21] <linux> hey i got a few questions
[01:21] <KenBW2> linux: speak and they shall be answered (maybe)
[01:21] <linux> ok
[01:21] <cweigle> I guess not
[01:22] <linux> well first what can i program in ubuntu and with what programs can i do it with
[01:22] <linux> i know c++ and lua programing for the psp
[01:22] <rdw200169> linux, you mean what programming languages are available?
[01:22] <THE_THUNDER_LORD> woah o.O
[01:22] <linux> yes
[01:22] <Flannel> linux: Of course you can.  There's a few IDEs available, and you can also use regular text editors, etc.
[01:22] <Gerinych> indygunfreak: so where would i get the source for installing grub?
[01:22] <rdw200169> linux, pretty much everything, from assembly to python, to qt, to c, to mono
[01:22] <ratpoison> Hello! anybody know what this http://pastebin.com/m69cc4e49 is? 8.10 amd64 user. Symptoms are: system doesn't shut down properly, nautilus crashes and won't launch and dvds won't mount (the pastebin is the output of dmesg | tail) also, on launchpad https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/276088
[01:22] <linux> ok explain IDE more info about them
[01:23] <IndyGunFreak> Gerinych: you don't need the source, you need to follow the instructions on the link i gave you
[01:23] <rdw200169> linux, you really gotta dig to find one that *isn't* supported
[01:23] <_Vi_> VI :) with plugins :)
[01:23] <rdw200169> linux, heck you can even do java
[01:23] <jslootbeek> ratpoison: initial glance looks like a harddisk problem
[01:23] <THE_THUNDER_LORD> hey does anyone use Gnucleus here???
[01:23] <linux> ok well can i use Kdevelop to make psp games?
[01:23] <linux> java FTW lol
[01:23] <jslootbeek> ratpoison: or even your IDE link
[01:23] <DaveW> anyone know a solution to this problem? eek> Absolute1: if you do a fresh install, it will generally format your harddrive, if you don't do that it's not really a "fresh" install, so it would be an upgrade
[01:23] <rdw200169> linux, well, i don't know anything about lua, but a quick google search should solve your problem
[01:24] <THE_THUNDER_LORD> hey does anyone use Gnucleus here???
[01:24] <ratpoison> jslootbeek: IDE? but... it's SATA
[01:24] <jslootbeek> ratpoison: that's what i meant
[01:24] <jslootbeek> ratpoison: sorry it's late...i should learn to read..:)
[01:24] <rdw200169> linux, keep in mind that linux, and unix, have some of the best *free* programming IDE's on earth
[01:24] <jslootbeek> ratpoison: have you tried a different CD/DVD drive?
[01:24] <Gerinych> indygunfreak: yeah, but when you use the root command, you set the source of stage1 file and everything else related to that, right?
[01:25] <linux> ok well what about psptoolchain thats the hardest thing to install without getting hella errors
[01:25] <ratpoison> jslootbeek: I don't have one available. But it seems unlikely that both DVD drives will fail, no?
[01:25] <MK13> who here was asking about openarena?
[01:25] <rdw200169> linux, sorry, i know *nothing* about that!
[01:25] <IndyGunFreak> Gerinych: i really have no idea what you're talking about needign the source code for grub, i've used the live cd to reinstall grub many times w/ those instructions w/ no problem.. thats all i can tell you'
[01:25] <jslootbeek> ratpoison: yeah, if it's both do you have motherboard diagnostics available?
[01:26] <linux> rdw200169 its cool
[01:26] <Gerinych> indygunfreak: no, not the source code, the source of files used to boot grub
[01:26] <_Vi_> anyone seen Onetinsoldier? he hasnt been around in like a month
[01:26] <IndyGunFreak> Gerinych: if you're not gonna follow the instructions, then i can't help you
[01:26] <_Vi_> sorry that was OT
[01:26] <jslootbeek> ratpoison: when did you start noticing the problem? after a kernel update, or just out of the blue?
[01:26] <rdw200169> linux forgive me, but that is one darn *obscure* request, not many people out there programming for the PSP out there in the open source community ;)
[01:27] <cappicard> anyone else getting "unable to enumerate usb device" in 2.6.28 with no keyboard response? I'm at my wit's end
[01:27] <ratpoison> jslootbeek: I think it was right there from the start I just reproduced it and pinpointed it only recently
[01:27] <rdw200169> linux, that I know of anyway, now if you want to know about Python, or C, or something more mainstream, much more help can be found!
[01:27] <linux> rdw200169 yea but what all could i do with IDE's
[01:27] <ctlabs> linux:  google psptoolchain & ubuntu -- tons of help, like   http://forums.maxconsole.net/archive/index.php/t-69699.html
[01:27] <ratpoison> jslootbeek: the start = fresh install
[01:27] <Abed>  guys i have a quick question, when i was using fedora and its terminal when i run a command for example ls -l and when i select a certain line , i could drag and drop it but not anymore on ubuntu's so can i anyone help
[01:27] <Gerinych> indygunfreak: i'm kind of trying to follow the instructions, but the "find" command returns 2 results and i dont know which one to use
[01:28] <jslootbeek> ratpoison: hmm, tough to troubleshoot over IRC, i unfortunately don't have SATA optical drives myself
[01:28] <rdw200169> linux, that's a pandora's box, there are more options than I can care to list, but the biggest ones off the top of my head are eclipse, emacs, and the venerable Vim
[01:28] <IndyGunFreak> Gerinych: and i told you, try hd1, and if that doesnt work, try the other one
[01:28] <linux> ctlabs man im not gonna try psptoolcain theres like a 80% chance of getting an error and a 20% cance of success
[01:28] <GoneWestCoast> Abed: I don't believe Ubuntu's implemented that version of terminal yet.
[01:28] <linux> *chance
[01:28] <Gerinych> indygunfreak: oh, i thought you said try hd1 in the "setup" command
[01:28] <_Vi_> drag and drop text? O.o new one on me sounds cool though
[01:29] <Abed> GoneWestCoast mmm damn it thnx though
[01:29] <Abed> :D
[01:29] <ratpoison> jslootbeek: ok, thnx for the effort, though
[01:29] <ari_stress> what, GoneWestCoast is here? :)
[01:29] <jslootbeek> ratpoison: have you tried installing 2.6.27-9-generic fromm intrepid-updates?
[01:29] <rdw200169> linux I use Vim, then again, i like the dark utilitarian nature of a good text editor with all the features you could possibly want available from the keyboard as opposed to drop down menus and the like
[01:29] <GoneWestCoast> ari_stress: Oh, I'm lots of places. :-p
[01:29] <ratpoison> jslootbeek:  updates / backports are enabled
[01:30] <ctlabs> linux: besides kdevelop you can use Eclipse, which supports java, python, c/c++ etc
[01:30] <linux> rdw200169 ok what language do you program in?
[01:30] <ratpoison> 2.6.27-11-generic is my uname -r output
[01:30] <rdw200169> linux I prefer Python
[01:30] <jslootbeek> ratpoison: ok, i would take it to the #ubuntu-kernel channel
[01:30] <ratpoison> ok, thnx
[01:30] <rdw200169> linux then again, i don't do a lot of programming, mostly a lot of high-level scripting which Python is best suited for
[01:30] <jslootbeek> ratpoison: better chance at catching an expert than this channel
[01:30] <bombshelter13> Does anyone know how I can check the expiry date of a GPG key? I have it both imported and in a file.
[01:31] <linux> rdw200169 nice nice well im a hacker(good side hacker) and a programmer
[01:31] <DefunctProcess> is it essential to have a swap partition?  can I remove my swap and resize my main partition into the free space safely?
[01:31] <linux> rdw200169 ok well when ur done codding what do u do with the files its not like Visual basic on windows
[01:31] <Shayle> guys plz i have a problem, i cant join a channel cuz of a "é", how can i do??
[01:31] <ratpoison> I also tried the #hal channel, since it looks like a hal problem, but it's been dead for a while
[01:31] <temppy> DefunctProcess: do you have more than 1g ram?
[01:31] <xubuser> Hello People.
[01:31] <GoneWestCoast> Shayle: Ask in #freenode
[01:31] <rdw200169> linux Python is also used to create many of the applications used on the Ubuntu Desktop; it's a powerful language with many libraries and compatibility across the board, i.e. windows, mac, and linux, when done right
[01:31] <cdsboy> is this a good place to get help with the fglrx driver under ubuntu?
[01:31] <DefunctProcess> temppy, 2GB...
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> DefunctProcess: the installer tends to piss and moan if you don't have a swap, but most modern systems don't really need it.
[01:32] <kdub> is there a network manager like the system tray applet that doesnt require a system tray to run?
[01:32] <xubuser> how to determine what drive my wifi card is using.
[01:32] <temppy> DefunctProcess: I run on 2g without swap, never had a problem.  In fact, when I did have swap, linux _never_ _ever_ used it
[01:32] <linux> rdw200169 well i prefer c++ very useful and can code alot in it
[01:32] <MK13> xubuser: iwlist
[01:32] <DefunctProcess> temppy, thank you.
[01:32] <xubuser> MK13: ok iwlist shows what driver is used?
[01:33] <MK13> xubuser: iwconfig, mb
[01:33] <rdw200169> linux, you just run them, Python creates binaries, but they're more for quicker code execution; for example, Civilization IV uses Python for a lot of the UI and AI elements to allow users more MOD capabilities since the files don't get compiled and turned into binary garbage
[01:33] <vax_> Hey everyone :)
[01:33] <MK13> one sec.
[01:33] <IndyGunFreak> xubuser: what wifi device are you trying to get working?
[01:33] <kdub> anyway you cut it, C is faster than python though
[01:33] <linux> rdw200169 i thought ubuntu cant execute files like that .exe ect ect
[01:33] <Shayle> they dont answer GoneWestCoast  :<
[01:34] <xubuser> IndyGunFreak: I have a wifi card that is working. I want to see what drive it uses. Then when I boot in slax, I'd like to try to modprobe the same driver and see if wifi works.
[01:34] <cdsboy> linux: you can with wine
[01:34] <VaxNam> Hey everyone, Wondering how to remove something from the startup menu. Everytime I start Ubuntu the Install menu shows up, but I allready have the OS Installed. I installed Easy Peasy distro for ubuntu. Anyone have Ideas?
[01:34] <Onidemo> 2nd time lucky maybe, can anyone tell me how to reinstall an ATI card from the Console?
[01:34] <linux> cdsboy i dont really preffer wine
[01:34] <IndyGunFreak> linux: well i can, but its success varies, .. wine is a free try
[01:34] <xubuser> MK13: I don't see the driver by iwconfig. Just the different interfaces....
[01:34] <IndyGunFreak> xubuser: i see
[01:34] <kdub> linux has so many native apps you rarely need wine
[01:34] <linux> true
[01:35] <kdub> ive only used wine for some EE CAD and a game here or there
[01:35] <xubuser> IndyGunFreak: so any idea how to determine which one is being used?
[01:35] <Onidemo> Need someone to tell me what console command can reinstall a graphics card!
[01:35] <VaxNam> Hmm, any help?
[01:35] <IndyGunFreak> xubuser: not that i know of, what wifi device is it?
[01:35] <jslootbeek> Onidemo: what do you mean "reinstall"?
[01:36] <vigo> VaxNam: Startup stuff?
[01:36] <cdsboy> is there a way to force a resolution using the fglrx driver? I need 1366x768 or 1280x720 resolution for the external monitor on my laptop but those options aren't showing up
[01:36] <MK13> xubuser: have you tried 'lshw -C network' ?
[01:36] <marcello> ortsvorsteher: I just reinstalled wpa_supplicant package and it all worked
[01:36] <Onidemo> jslootbeek: I was told in order to get back intot he GUI , i need to reinstall my ATI Radeon card
[01:36] <BCampbell> farf, hey the reinstall work?
[01:36] <xubuser> IndyGunFreak: 03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8185 IEEE 802.1
[01:36] <VaxNam> Vigo: Indeed, but I tried going to session and I did not see a "Install" application there.
[01:36] <jslootbeek> Onidemo: i assume you mean the kernel module is not loaded, if you do 'lsmod' do you see a line that starts with "radeon"?
[01:36] <linux> rdw200169 the IDE is called eclipse right?
[01:36] <rdw200169> linux, well i was only giving an example, Python is OS independent, so you can use it in windows or linux
[01:37] <IndyGunFreak> xubuser: why not just google instructions to get that device working w/ slax?
[01:37] <linux> rdw200169 ok hey thanks for the help :)
[01:37] <xubuser> IndyGunFreak: well, it started with being a quick copy driver thing. But now the google approach might be better. :)
[01:37] <MK13> anyone know of working dialup modems for ubuntu?
[01:37] <VaxNam> vigo: Any Ideas?
[01:37] <vigo> VaxNam: There is a GUI in System> Admin that is a clicky to stop or start programs on boot
[01:37] <VaxNam> Or anyone for that matter
[01:37] <_Vi_> !dialup
[01:37] <Flannel> !bum | vigo
[01:38] <rdw200169> linux on a side note, with the 1.0 wine release, it's dang near *fantastic*
[01:38] <rdw200169> linux, sure eclipse, if you like the classic form of an IDE
[01:38] <VaxNam> Vigo: Ok Hold on let me try that. Thanks
[01:38] <vigo> Thank you
[01:38] <linux> rdw200169 ok thanks
[01:38] <rdw200169> linux, but take a shot and try VIM for programming, it's a steep learning curve but many swear it's the best out there
[01:39] <_Vi_> it is
[01:39] <vigo> VaxNam: it worked for me and was easy.
[01:39] <VaxNam> vigo: I'm using a Easy Peasy
[01:39] <linux> rdw200169 ok um do were do i find this out
[01:39] <rdw200169> linux, vim.org of course
[01:39] <grkblood13> is there anyways to install itunes?
[01:39] <grkblood13> other than wine
[01:39] <THE_THUNDER_LORD> ><
[01:39] <linux> rdw200169 of course lol brb

[01:39] <linux> rdw200169 thanks again
[01:39] <kdub> grkblood13: you dont need it. try amarok. or banshee
[01:39] <xubuser> one other thing is the update acpi-support fails to install.... should one just remove it?
[01:39] <samuel> linux: you could also try emacs ;)
[01:39] <grkblood13> is there a program that can access the itunes store?
[01:40] <VaxNam> vigo: I don't have an option like that, but I tried Session > Startup and it wasn't there.
[01:40] <grkblood13> can banshee access the store?
[01:40] <IndyGunFreak> grkblood13: not that i know of.....
[01:40] <vigo> VaxNam: whoops,, look at what Flannel popped on
[01:40] <linux> samuel well for now im going to try eclipse and vim but thanks anyways
[01:40] <kdub> i dont think so. boycott drm though grkblood13
[01:40] <kdub> :D
[01:40] <rdw200169> grkblood13: i Think Songbird is working on it.  I'm not sure.
[01:40] <grkblood13> well, i dont wanna buy anything i want the free podcasts
[01:40] <VaxNam> Vigo: What?
[01:40] <vigo> !bum | VaxNam
[01:40] <samuel> linux: no problem
[01:41] <grkblood13> a linux user and drm dont really seem to mess rdw200169
[01:41] <grkblood13> mesh*
[01:41] <xubuser> any idea?
[01:41] <rdw200169> grkblood13: yeah, doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me
[01:42] <MK13> too much trouble to get dialup working, and it's not worth it
[01:42] <uatec> Greetings
[01:42] <grkblood13> does any1 know if songbird has access to the podcasts?
[01:42] <xubuser> now works.
[01:42] <rdw200169> grkblood13: you're gonna have to check their website on that one!
[01:42] <grkblood13> will do
[01:43] <uatec> I just installed 8.10 on my laptop. The sound card work, but for some reason the headphones socket doesn't.
[01:44] <MK13> uatec: what brand laptop?
[01:44] <uatec> it's an MSI, the soundcard is realtek, i'm looking for the exact model, but i haven't found it yet
[01:44] <kdub> uatec: make sure that the headphone switch is not muted. check alsamixer or the volume control
[01:44] <VaxNam> Vigo: Thanks, I'm installing bum now to see if it works
[01:44] <grkblood13> i foudn a prog with access to itunes! or so the article says
[01:45] <grkblood13> PyMusique
[01:45] <grkblood13> im about to grad it
[01:45] <tinnid> Anyone know why my volume control settings keep reverting back as soon as I close the window or change audio source?
[01:45] <vigo> VaxNam: okee dokee,,was Flannel that suggested it, but that is a fix that I have seen work
[01:45] <MK13> uatec: have you updated completely, or is it a fresh install?
[01:45] <uatec> kdub, the headphone socket is not muted. I also have music coming out of the onboard speakers while the headphones are plugged in
[01:45] <uatec> it's fully updated
[01:45] <linux> rdw200169 hey whats up with the make install like what is all that about?
[01:46] <MK13> my RealTek has done that b4, but i don't remember how i got it to work
[01:47] <uatec> rubbish
[01:48] <throwt> evolution sucks
[01:48] <sellyoursoul> how do a copy a file from my desktop and paste it to my external drive?  i can't believe i'm having to as this...
[01:48] <AceBlade258> is there any way to make ubuntu have drivers integrated in install?
[01:48] <MK13> does the grub get updated after every kernel update? Because mine does but it leaves the old entries on the menu.
[01:48] <linux> rdw200169 i love you
[01:49] <linux> rdw200169 lmfao jk
[01:49] <scunizi> AceBlade258, ubuntu has tons of integrated drivers already there during install.. what other drivers are you thinking of?
[01:49] <rdw200169> linux i'm off to bed!
[01:49] <AceBlade258> specifically SB X-Fi and nVidia Ge Force
[01:49] <linux> rdw200169 lol kk man peace
[01:49] <VaxNam> Vigo: I do not see anything there, even in advanced, that says anything about a startup item 'Install' or 'System Install'
[01:49] <redvamp128> MK13:  that is normal-- would not want you update to new one and be left unbootable
[01:49] <BCampbell> AceBlade258, those are not open source drivers..so no
[01:49] <sellyoursoul> i can't seem to write a file to my external usb ntfs drive.  any ideas?
[01:49] <scunizi> AceBlade258, nvidia gforce are there.. which version?  as for X-Fi at some point maybe..
[01:49] <_Vi_> sellyoursoul: sudo cp /home/sellyoursoul/file /media/disk/   shoudl do it (Assuming /media/disk/ is your external)
[01:49] <kdub> uatec: find help in #alsa
[01:49] <\kira> sellyoursoul: what does it do?
[01:50] <AceBlade258> then is there any way to make it use closed source
[01:50] <sellyoursoul> thanks _vi_
[01:50] <\kira> sellyoursoul: errors? Does it have the desktop icon?
[01:50] <BCampbell> sellyoursoul, insttall ntfs-config it should allow you to set write permissions very easily
[01:50] <vigo> VaxNam: what version?
[01:50] <MK13> redvamp128: but i can still choose the old entries and boot just fine
[01:50] <sellyoursoul> let me try vi's tip
[01:50] <_Vi_> sellyoursoul: oh wait its NTFS?
[01:50] <redvamp128> That is the point
[01:50] <AceBlade258> scunzi: when i boot mine it says "Ubuntu is rinning in low graphics mode"
[01:50] <sellyoursoul> yes, ntfs
[01:50] <redvamp128> MK13:  that is the point of why--
[01:50] <BCampbell> AceBlade258, you just install the drivers after install...same as Windows
[01:51] <poseidon> anyone know what apt-get is written in?
[01:51] <VaxNam> Vigo: Of ubuntu? How would I find out, Easy Peasy really didn't tell me what version I had.
[01:51] <MK13> redvamp128: is it safe to remove the old entries after you know the update is correct?
[01:51] <redvamp128> sellyoursoul:  have you installed-- in synaptic ntfs-3g?
[01:51] <redvamp128> MK13:  for me I remove all but the last 2
[01:51] <sellyoursoul> redvamp128, yes i have
[01:52] <amadeobellotti> hello
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> VaxNam: lsb_release -a in a terminal will tell you the version of ubuntu you have
[01:52] <\kira> !hi | amadeobellotti
[01:52] <AceBlade258> BCampbell: there is the problem, when i boot it gives me the low graphics mode message, then when i tell it to continure anyway it restarts the graphics adapter and crashes
[01:52] <amadeobellotti> i was wondering if i could get some help
[01:52] <_Vi_> sellyoursoul: have you tried samba?
[01:52] <redvamp128> MK13:  Though you have to sudo gedit and then open the file to edit it
[01:52] <\kira> !ask | amadeobellotti
[01:52] <AceBlade258> (i got it working once before)
[01:52] <vigo> VaxNam: uhm ok,,let me look up easy peasy
[01:52] <sellyoursoul> no, but i'll make a note of samba
[01:52] <BCampbell> AceBlade258, which nvidia card and which driver?
[01:53] <VaxNam> Vigo: 8.10
[01:53] <amadeobellotti> ok cool so my laptop battery isnt charging all the way the last charge was only 3.8 Wh where the designed was for 88 wh
[01:53] <VaxNam> Vigo: its a netbook remix distro
[01:53] <sellyoursoul> bahhh!  do i need to use an underscore in files names where there are spaces in the file name?
[01:53] <AceBlade258> GeForce 8800GTS, and any that works, the last time i got it working took me two hours and the driver version was 177
[01:53] <redvamp128> sellyoursoul:  it does not let you write to it but does the system see it
[01:53] <AceBlade258> i would like to use 180
[01:53] <IndyGunFreak> VaxNam: that command should still work in a terminal, but i believe ubuntu nbr is based on 8.04 Hardy
[01:53] <BCampbell> AceBlade258, what stopped it from working?
[01:53] <Jpdota> hi, i have several users of debian and/or ubuntu on my LAN, and i would like to set up an apt-cacher to conserve bandwidth.  is there any way to set one up on a non-debian-based computer?  my router is the only computer constantly on and it runs openbsd, so i'd like to set it up on that
[01:54] <_Vi_> sellyoursoul: ok, theres a few GUI for samba that you can use too, just look in synaptic for samba, i think one is called swat,
[01:54] <jams44> How do I view my Hardware Specs? Is there an easy way to view info like mobo, RAM, chipset and what not?
[01:54] <sellyoursoul> redvamp:  yes.  i can copy files from the drive also.  just not write to it, it seems
[01:54] <scunizi> AceBlade258, the 177 driver is not the best.. the 180.xx direct from nvidia works much better.
[01:54] <redvamp128> sellyoursoul:  and which version of Ubuntu 8.04 or 8.10
[01:54] <sellyoursoul> xubuntu 8.04
[01:54] <_Vi_> that's what i have
[01:54] <redvamp128> you could try opening it up as sudo natilus
[01:54] <BCampbell> scunizi, 180.22 crashed my system..but it may just be me
[01:54] <linux> does anyone here use ubuntu IDE eclipse?
[01:54] <sellyoursoul> i like it, i just don't know how to do much yet
[01:54] <redvamp128> Though to note-- DO NOT WRITE TO YOUR OWN SYSTEM
[01:54] <AceBlade258> scunzi: i think you told me that last time, never got the chance to try
[01:54] <_Vi_> redvamp128: gksudo
[01:55] <BCampbell> sellyoursoul, "sudo apt-get install ntfs-config"  should fix your problem
[01:55] <sellyoursoul> what is gk in gksudo?
[01:55] <Jpdota> linux: yes
[01:55] <AceBlade258> my brother took the liberty of reformatting my linux partition through windows
[01:55] <_Vi_> sellyoursoul: dont use sudo with graphical stuff
[01:55] <VaxNam> IndyGunFreak: It did work, I found the distro. It's 8.10. I'm just trying to remove the start up "Install" application from boot.
[01:55] <_Vi_> !gksu
[01:55] <VaxNam> Also for Vigo
[01:55] <redvamp128> ubottu:  gksudo
[01:55] <vigo> VaxNam: Okay, is at sourceforge, is not an official Ubuntu package, but heck, back-up, re-install
[01:55] <tbrock> hey guys, i'm trying to burn a iso to a usb drive in ubuntu
[01:55] <linux> jpdota: hey did u use instal it in terminal?
[01:55] <tbrock> can someone help me figure this out
[01:55] <redvamp128> ubottu: gksudo
[01:55] <_Vi_> its !gksu
[01:56] <Jpdota> linux: yes, i installed it in terminal, it's just sudo apt-get install eclipse
[01:56] <VaxNam> There is no way I can remove the startup Item of install, Vigo? I'd have to reinstall the whole thing?
[01:56] <bling> how do i edit the properties of a launcher?
[01:56] <linux> jpdota: ok well um how do i use it?
[01:56] <linux> jpdota: maybe even as a desktop app?
[01:56] <IndyGunFreak> VaxNam: try this.. open a terminal type "gnome-session-properties" no quotes, hit enter, and then find what you don't want to load at startup, and uncheck it.
[01:56] <Jpdota> linux: Applications --> Programming --> Eclipse or type eclipse in the command line
[01:57] <BCampbell> AceBlade258, when restarting..can you choose the option to use default graphic setting as apposed to low graphics mode
[01:57] <amadeobellotti> ok cool so my laptop battery isnt charging all the way the last charge was only 3.8 Wh where the designed was for 88 wh. what would cause this, and how do i fix it
[01:57] <sellyoursoul> sudo is for non gui stuff, gksudo for gui stuff?
[01:57] <linux> jpdota: kk thanks
[01:57] <prince_jammys> sellyoursoul: correct
[01:57] <Jpdota> linux: no problem, happy coding
[01:57] <vigo> VaxNam: Ubuntu does have some PPC and other distros that may work,,if you go Terrminal, yes, they might could be removed,,but without proper documentation it is a tough call.
[01:57] <sellyoursoul> prince:  thanks
[01:57] <joljam> i cannot download anythung t ubuntu ibex
[01:57] <linux> jpdota: you to
[01:57] <joljam> someone please help me
[01:57] <AceBlade258> yes, when i do it tells me to restart and i do, it just brings me back to the same thing
[01:57] <AceBlade258> it's odd
[01:57] <bling> nm
[01:58] <joljam> this is using firefox
[01:58] <BCampbell> AceBlade258, sounds like maybe your x conf is fouled
[01:58] <linux> jpdota: you ever code anything?
[01:58] <VaxNam> IndyGunFreak: I tried that already, the Application "Install" or anything along those lines is not in there.
[01:58] <Jpdota> linux: yes
[01:58] <VaxNam> vigo: I see
[01:58] <linux> jpdota: like?
[01:58] <IndyGunFreak> VaxNam: hmm,

[01:59] <VaxNam> IndyGunFreak: What shoud I be looking for?
[01:59] <Jpdota> linux: java applications, php scripts, etc
[01:59] <throwt> how to i disable the prompt to run in terminal/edit/run when i double click on a shell script?
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> VaxNam: honestly, i don't know.
[01:59] <sellyoursoul> did sudo apt-get install ntfs-config but no luck
[01:59] <VaxNam> IndyGunFreak: Haha, I've never seen this before.
[01:59] <sellyoursoul> maybe i need to restart x?
[01:59] <linux> jpdota: ice hey you have a psp? because i code in lua and c++  coding game/app ect ect
[02:00] <MK13> redvamp: is there a way to remove the old kernels?
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> VaxNam: what is the name of the program that you're not wanting to start at startup, cuz it has to be in that list..
[02:00] <BCampbell> sellyoursoul, did you look in the menu?  applications -> system tools?
[02:00] <Jpdota> linux: no i don't
[02:00] <VaxNam> IndyGunFreak: I'll take a screenshot
[02:00] <_Vi_> sellyoursoul: try sudo apt-get install ntfs<HIT TAB A FEW TIMES>
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> ok
[02:00] <linux> jpdota: ok well thanks peace

[02:03] <BCampbell> sellyoursoul, are you dragging the file, cut and paste or how?
[02:03] <IndyGunFreak> VaxNam: are you running the "live" version, or are you installed.
[02:03] <quiksilver> or at least a reccomendation
[02:03] <VaxNam> IndyGunFreak: It's like I'm still on a live CD

[02:04] <sellyoursoul> BCampbell:  i tried both ways
[02:04] <joljam> BCampbell...nothing
[02:04] <VaxNam> I used the "USB" method of installing it though.
[02:04] <linux> joljam you try reseting your computer?
[02:04] <VaxNam> IndyGunFreak: So I'm Installed, I installed using a USB
[02:04] <IndyGunFreak> VaxNam: that really shouldn't matter, i did the same thing on my AAO, but i installed normal ubuntu.
[02:04] <joljam> BCampbell.. I hit Ctrl+Y and nothing is seen in the window
[02:04] <sellyoursoul> BCampbell:  i'm going to restart and see if anything changes.
[02:05] <VaxNam> IndyGunFreak: This is so wierd, I'm running Aspire One
[02:05] <joljam> how can I reset my computer from commandline
[02:05] <Stargazer> I'm trying to install ubuntu but none of my partitions are showing up when the partition editor loads. any ideas ?
[02:05] <IndyGunFreak> VaxNam: go through your sessions/startup list.. and see if you see a program called "ubiquity" set to start on startup
[02:05] <joljam> linux:---how can I reset my computer from commandline
[02:05] <VaxNam> ok
[02:05] <Onidemo>  Can someone help me to | Switch my radeon_drv to radeon driver | ?
[02:05] <quiksilver> is there an open source pdf reader
[02:05] <linux> joljam just reset it from ubuntu
[02:05] <quiksilver> or should i just install adobe acrobat?
[02:05] <joljam> linux.. how do I do that
[02:05] <vigo> IndyGunFreek: good call..I forgot about that
[02:05] <Cpudan80> quicksilver_: evince
[02:05] <joljam> linux.... I am a newbie
[02:05] <Stargazer> quiksilver: there should be evince.
[02:05] <Cpudan80> quiksilver: ^
[02:06] <IndyGunFreak> vigo: took me a minute.. :)
[02:06] <tbrock> joljam, reboot
[02:06] <linux> joljam what version of ubuntu you have?
[02:06] <Cpudan80> I think evince is better than acrobat actually
[02:06] <Cpudan80> its much lighter weight
[02:06] <BCampbell> joljam, as root shutdown -r 0
[02:06] <quiksilver> hmmm
[02:06] <KNY> is there a way to install kubuntu-desktop (on top of Ubuntu) without having all the KDE apps clutter up my application menus?
[02:06] <joljam> linux:- 8.10 Intrepid
[02:06] <quiksilver> says its installed, but i get an error when i open a pdf
[02:06] <sellyoursoul> BCampbel:  nothing changed after a restart
[02:06] <VaxNam> IndyGunFreak: I removed Ubiquity
[02:06] <Stargazer> Cpudan80: i prefer KPDF even though i'm on gnome. i find Evince to be rather heavy.
[02:06] <IndyGunFreak> VaxNam: i'm guessing you won't have that problem anymore.. :)
[02:06] <IndyGunFreak> !info ubiquity | VaxNam
[02:06] <Cpudan80> KNY: no - youd have to remove them from the menu after the fact
[02:07] <KNY> Cpudan80, dang.
[02:07] <redvamp128> KNY:  should you decide to install -- KDE dekstop remember this
[02:07] <IndyGunFreak> VaxNam: if it was set to load up on startup, then it makes sense why it kept loading.
[02:07] <linux> joljam ok in the bottom right hand corner there will be your username just click that and click restart
[02:07] <BCampbell> sellyoursoul, very strange lemme look some
[02:07] <KNY> redvamp128, er, remember what?
[02:07] <MK131> redvamp: yea I know how to take them off the grub boot list, and I have already removed all the old entries from it (making a backup first)
[02:07] <redvamp128> KNY:  write this one down-- will help you get back to gnome configure (sudo dpkg reconfigure gdm)
[02:07] <Decepticon> what do i do if i want my script to launch when theres a new dir in /home/decepticon/newstuff/*
[02:07] <joljam> linux:- in fact I have been restarting several times
[02:07] <Stargazer> I'm trying to install Ubuntu but the partition editor during install isn't showing any partitions.
[02:07] <KNY> redvamp128, ah, will do
[02:07] <KNY> thanks
[02:07] <VaxNam> vigo: and IndyGunFreak: Thank You so much for the help. I'm very greatful for the help!
[02:08] <Cpudan80> redvamp128: what?
[02:08] <redvamp128> I think there is supposed to be dash in there
[02:08] <Cpudan80> redvamp128: He should have to do that at all
[02:08] <redvamp128> The KDE display manager takes over
[02:08] <Cpudan80> KNY: Dont use KDM
[02:08] <KNY> redvamp128, yeah, there is.
[02:08] <IndyGunFreak> VaxNam: lol, i'm more curious if it worked..lol, but your appreciation is noted.
[02:08] <KNY> Cpudan80, eh?
[02:08] <Decepticon> help in the help channel please? what do i do if i want my script to launch when theres a new dir in /home/decepticon/newstuff/*
[02:08] <linux> joljam hmm did you install ubuntu using wubi?
[02:08] <VaxNam> IndyGunFreak: I thought It would be called Install or something liket hat.
[02:08] <Cpudan80> redvamp128: no - you get to pick - stick with GDM
[02:08] <VaxNam> that*
[02:08] <redvamp128> If you install Kubuntu desktop it does
[02:08] <Stargazer> I'm trying to install Ubuntu but the partition editor during install isn't showing any partitions. I need help. :<
[02:08] <Cpudan80> KNY: towards the end it will ask whether to use KDM or GDM, use GDM
[02:08] <joljam> linux:- I installed ubuntu from usb
[02:08] <redvamp128> Didn't the last time I installed Kubuntu desktop
[02:08] <VaxNam> I'll be back
[02:09] <KNY> Cpudan80, towards the end of the kubuntu-desktop install?
[02:09] <vigo> VaxNam: it works, so all good
[02:09] <linux> joljam is ubuntu on the hardd rive?
[02:09] <VaxNam> IndyGunFreak: I'm goingto test
[02:09] <VaxNam> Brbr vigo and IndyGunFreak
[02:09] <Cpudan80> KNY: You can then select which desktop to use from the bottom of the gdm menu
[02:09] <IndyGunFreak> VaxNam: ok.. i'm guesssing that did it.
[02:09] <Cpudan80> KNY: yes
[02:09] <BCampbell> sellyoursoul, i forgot...which version are you using? intrepid?
[02:09] <node357> Decepticon, I don't think there's any way to do that
[02:09] <redvamp128> not always on 8.10 -- did ask me on 8.04
[02:09] <joljam> linux:- yes it is on hard drive
[02:09] <Decepticon> node357 lies
[02:09] <KNY> how about I just install it in a VM and just use it there? ;)
[02:09] <tbrock> can someone help me make a bootable windows disk from ubuntu
[02:09] <_Vi_> Stargazer: does sudo cfdisk show them?
[02:09] <linux> joljam ok is the download your only problem?
[02:09] <vigo> VaxNam: Make a backup first!
[02:09] <joljam> linux:- yes
[02:09] <VaxNam> I will!
[02:09] <VaxNam> Thanks
[02:09] <VaxNam> Brb
[02:09] <vigo> ok
[02:10] <IndyGunFreak> vigo: what does he need to bacup?
[02:10] <linux> joljam ok well hmm give me 10 sec to thinl
[02:10] <Stargazer> yes, _Vi_
[02:10] <tbrock> i've got an iso i need to write to a usb drive
[02:10] <_Vi_> :)
[02:10] <tbrock> i could do this in mac os x
[02:10] <_Vi_> Stargazer: you using gparted earlier?
[02:10] <tbrock> so i don't see why i couldn't do this in ubuntu
[02:10] <vigo> IndyGunFreak: the stable repaired system....
[02:10] <IndyGunFreak> vigo: oh ok.
[02:10] <quiksilver> is evince EPDF viewer?
[02:10] <sellyoursoul> BCampbell:  xubuntu 8.04
[02:11] <_Vi_> quiksilver: i think its a creator too
[02:11] <_Vi_> could be wrong though
[02:11] <redvamp128> Cpudan80:  for some reason the past 2 times I installed Kubuntu desktop on 8.10 it asked but then after I signed into the kde desktop KDM took over
[02:11] <vigo> IndyGunFreak: Backups are a good routine to get into , especially when making system changes or even typing "Hello World" .
[02:11] <Stargazer> _Vi_: any ideas as to why the partition editor in the install isn't showing my partitions ?
[02:11] <Cpudan80> redvamp128: hrm...
[02:11] <redvamp128> Cpudan80:  but once I ran that command it never took over again (and yes I chose GDM)
[02:11] <linux> joljam on your control panel go to System - Administration - Software Sources
[02:11] <Cpudan80> redvamp128: maybe you have to do it from apt-get on the command line?
[02:12] <linux> joljam tell me when you got that
[02:12] <Cpudan80> redvamp128: When I did it the reconfigure thing came up close to the end
[02:12] <redvamp128> Cpudan80:  that is why I told him to remember that
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> vigo: i'm pretty religous about backups, i can be backup, almost completely, in around an hour or so.
[02:12] <joljam> linux:- I am there
[02:12] <redvamp128> Cpudan80:  The file configured for GDM just fine-- but when from the login screen -- I choose KDE and booted to that desktop KDM took over ...
[02:12] <vigo> IndyGunFreak: You have learned,,,many still stumble along and wonder WHY!?!
[02:13] <Cpudan80> redvamp128: well if you set KDE as the default that might happen
[02:13] <robd> Hey guys
[02:13] <_Vi_> Stargazer: not off hand, maybe it was just a fluke? at any rate there is a gparted Live CD or ther's is also Parted Magic live CD you could try those to partition the drives
[02:13] <IndyGunFreak> vigo: only took me screwing up my windows with a screwed up pclinus OS install to learn the importance...(it wasn't PCLOS's fault, it was me being a newb moron)
[02:13] <redvamp128> Cpudan80:  I think it is because 1strun for KDE desktop sets that up as default
[02:13] <linux> joljam ok now see were it says updates click that and look down towards the bottom it should say large term suport only make it were it says normal releases
[02:13] <robd> I'm only getting about 8000 concurrent connections on my Ubuntu server
[02:14] <linux> joljam then close
[02:14] <robd> Is there anything I can tweak in sysctl to support more connections? (i.e. raise the file handle limit)
[02:14] <joljam> linux:- yes it says normal releases
[02:14] <vigo> IndyGunFreak: Learning is FUNda-mental
[02:14] <linux> joljam have you updated?
[02:14] <IndyGunFreak> ;)
[02:14] <_Vi_> linux: 'long' term support not 'large' :)
[02:15] <joljam> linux it was already Normal releases
[02:15] <linux> _Vi_ thank you vi my mistake
[02:15] <joljam> I did not have to change anything
[02:15] <_Vi_> :)
[02:15] <linux> joljam ok hm go in firefox and go to your addons
[02:15] <linux> and make sure every addon/plugin is enabled

[02:24] <Luke9> internal
[02:24] <Tech-Mike> ?? \kira where u get that?
[02:24] <MK131> Luke9: madwifi or ndiswrapper would be good
[02:25] <dayo_> http://www.wimp.com/badinfo/
[02:25] <IndyGunFreak> Luke9: ok.. if he's on ubuntu, tell him to open a terminal and type "lspci" no quotes, hit enter, and see the what atheros chipset it is.
[02:25] <dayo_> ndiswrapper is a nightmare
[02:25] <this_mat> Anyone know if it's possible to use ubuntu as the file server for an xbox? Streaming music n such to it?
[02:25] <\kira> Tech-Mike: well, I was talking about msn, so I assumed you were "defending" it in a way
[02:25] <IndyGunFreak> MK131: actually, there's a couple atheros chipsets that madwifi doesn't work w/
[02:26] <Tech-Mike> no - i said peeps use it probably because: it comes on pretty much everybodys comp
[02:26] <MK131> Dayo: yea, but thankfully i have Broadcom so i use b43-fwcutter
[02:26] <dayo_> this_mat: i saw something like that about a ps3

[02:27] <koshari> this_mat i guess it comes down to the 360s support of shares and the codecs it supports, prolly a q for #360***
[02:27] <churl> ubuntu just decided to logout seeming out of nowhere.  popped up something about "anacron" on a black screen, then went to the login screen.  is there a file i can look in and see what error that was? (let me know if im leaving something important out)
[02:27] <this_mat> koshari: thanks for the tip, I'll check into that channel.
[02:28] <MindVirus> I'm running gnome-terminal --command x.
[02:28] <MindVirus> How do I make it stay open after x is done?
[02:28] <jcapinc> anacron sounds like a scheduler
[02:28] <dayo_> churl: /var/log/syslog
[02:28] <jcapinc> churl Anacron is a scheduling program, it is used for scheduling shut downs among other things
[02:28] <__jaschon__> does anyone know what directs the audio that is played through the headphone jack?
[02:28] <churl> jcapinc: weird thanks guys
[02:29] <tsuna27> i have a problem with ubuntu it turns gray a lot it just freezes up, with windows this meant a virus of some kind but I have no idea what it means in ubuntu
[02:29] <MindVirus> Anyone know?
[02:29] <jcapinc> tsuna27 what do you mean it turns grey?
[02:29] <MindVirus> tsuna27, no, it's not a virus.
[02:29] <MindVirus> It means your computer is slow.
[02:30] <vax_> I got a virus on my ubintu
[02:30] <MindVirus> When a window is gray, it's not responding.
[02:30] <vax_> I got a virus on my ubuntu

[02:30] <jcapinc> vax_ what does it do? :P
[02:30] <Luke9> Hmm that's interesting
[02:30] <Batshua> Um, my xorg.conf could use some help.  More like a LOT of help.  I have three ways to connect the mythbox to the TV: DVI, Composite, and S-Video.  So far none of them work right.
[02:30] <MK131> just on a side note, how many viruses for ubuntu are there now?
[02:30] <IndyGunFreak> Luke9: ?
[02:30] <MindVirus> I'm running gnome-terminal --command x.
[02:30] <Batshua> By "work right", I mean "has proper resolution, is centered, and is the right color".  Could anyone assist me with the configuration?  I would really appreciate it.

[02:30] <MindVirus> How do I make it stay open after x is done?
[02:30] <Luke9> And it's just a gray screen
[02:31] <jcapinc> MK131 are you using a nvidia card?
[02:31] <vax_> IndyGunFreak: It worked!
[02:31] <IndyGunFreak> Luke9: did you ever figure out what chipset your friend has?
[02:31] <IndyGunFreak> vax_: i thought i might.. ;)
[02:31] <MK131> Yea
[02:31] <churl> jcapinc: it looks like vbox segfaulted
[02:31] <Luke9> He's working on it
[02:31] <Luke9> Any idea how I can get on here through my Linux machine?
[02:31] <IndyGunFreak> Luke9: does he have internet access at all?
[02:31] <vax_> IndyGunFreak: Thanks again. Thank you too, Vigo.
[02:32] <jcapinc> Luke9 XChat, thats what im using
[02:32] <Batshua> (I'm hanging out on the Recovery Mode screen right now.)

[02:33] <Nautilus__> whats a good GUI FTP/SFTP app, perferably with XCRC support?
[02:34] <jcapinc> Nautilus__ Filezilla is a wonderful FTP program, but I dont know what XCRC is, though I suspect that Filezilla would support it
[02:34] <MindVirus> Nautilus__, nautilus.
[02:34] <mcpancakes> Nautilus__: I really like the FireFTP firefox addon. I don't use any standalone programs.
[02:34] <Luke9> jcap, sorry I'm such a newb but when I click download it says "index of /files/binary/rpm" what do I do now?
[02:34] <MindVirus> I'm running gnome-terminal --command x.
[02:34] <MindVirus> How do I make it stay open after x is done?
[02:35] <whydoesithurt> Hello. What would people recommend as the best option for automatic backups?
[02:35] <Killeroid> can anyone tell me where the default java classes are installed to?
[02:35] <caboosification> has anyone been able to install ubuntu(not live usb) onto an ipod ?
[02:35] <mindrape> !backup
[02:35] <ned> how do i repair apt, i accidently deleted my sources.list file
[02:35] <IndyGunFreak> whydoesithurt: i use externaldrive 1.0
[02:35] <whydoesithurt> mindrape, thanks much
[02:35] <Nautilus__> jcapinc: XCRC does a CRC check after the transfer, id i understand it correctly
[02:35] <mindrape> ned: I can provide you a new one... if you'd like.
[02:35] <Nautilus__> is-if
[02:35] <Nautilus__> bah, cant type
[02:35] <jedi06> anyone know of a statistical analysis like minitab for ubuntu?
[02:35] <ned> mindrape, please
[02:35] <caboosification> has anyone been able to install ubuntu(not live usb) onto an ipod ?
[02:35] <IndyGunFreak> ned: ?... how can you accidentally delete your source list?
[02:36] <jrib> jedi06: R
[02:36] <n8tuser> MindVirus -> remove the --command x
[02:36] <tritium> caboosification: please don't repeat
[02:36] <ned> IndyGunFreak, pretty easily
[02:36] <jcapinc> Nautilus__ yea, Im a web guy and I use ftp all the time, but I dont know what that is.  I still recommend filezilla
[02:36] <MindVirus> n8tuser, no, I need to have the output open.
[02:36] <Nautilus__> MindVirus: Heh, as you may guess my nick is not about the file manager ;)
[02:36] <dayo_> whydoesithurt: http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_backuppc
[02:36] <IndyGunFreak> ned: in your opinon, what were you doing as root that allowed you to do it.
[02:36] <MindVirus> Nautilus__, nautilus has FTP/SFTP support, AFAIK.
[02:36] <sellyoursoul> still haven't figured out why i can't write to my usb ntfs drive.  should there be an entry in fstab for the drive?
[02:36] <MindVirus> sellyoursoul, yes.
[02:36] <sellyoursoul> MindVirus:  it's missing
[02:37] <MindVirus> Then make it.
[02:37] <Nautilus__> jcapinc: thanks, that I'm familiar with
[02:37] <tritium> sellyoursoul: USB drives don't need fstab entries
[02:37] <Decepticon> which call is better for incron if i want to launch a script when a dir is created inside /my/watch/dir ... the process creating the dir is creating the dir, writing files inside the dir for about 4 minutes, then exiting. should i use : IN_CLOSE_WRITE File opened for writing was closed ........ or should i use IN_CREATE File/directory created in watched directory ?
[02:37] <quiksilver> can anyone reccomend a great music player for ubuntu?
[02:37] <n8tuser> sellyoursoul -> nope, no need to have an entry in your /etc/fstab for temporarily mounts
[02:37] <MindVirus> quiksilver, Rhythmbox.
[02:37] <Tech-Mike> quicksilver audacious
[02:37] <MindVirus> Audacious is not a music player.
[02:37] <jcapinc> quicksilver: either Banshee or Amorok
[02:37] <MindVirus> It's a sequencer.
[02:37] <sellyoursoul> well damn.  i'm really lost, ha, ha.
[02:37] <mrwes> quiksilver: Rhythmbox?
[02:37] <Tech-Mike> yes it is
[02:37] <IndyGunFreak> quicksilver: depends on what you mean by great, audacious, rhythmbox, songbird, helix-player, amarok, there's several good ones
[02:37] <churl> quicksilver_: do you want simple or winamp style, or itunes style?
[02:38] <jcapinc> mrwes quiksilver: Rythmbox is meh
[02:38] <quiksilver> itunes style
[02:38] <atom^x> quicksilver_: gmusicbrowser
[02:38] <caboosification> has anyone been able to install ubuntu(not live usb) onto an ipod ?
[02:38] <tritium> caboosification: I told you not to repeat
[02:38] <jcapinc> caboosification: no lol that wont work
[02:38] <n8tuser> caboosification -> can you try to google for it?
[02:38] <caboosification> i have tried googling it
[02:38] <atom^x> quicksilver_: gmusicbrowser can be configured to look like itunes
[02:38] <caboosification> cant find anything
[02:39] <caboosification> i want to put a partition and boot from that partition
[02:39] <caboosification> on the ipod
[02:39] <mindrape> caboosification: /msg caboosificationhttp://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=ubuntu+install+on+ipod&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&oq=
[02:39] <n8tuser> caboosification -> then it doesnt magically become available here
[02:39] <IndyGunFreak> Luke9: did he ever figure it out?
[02:39] <Onidemo> How do i Navigate to a folder in Terminal so i can execute a command?
[02:39] <Tech-Mike> cd
[02:39] <lstarnes> Onidemo: cd
[02:39] <caboosification> nvm i guess
[02:39] <tsuna27> what can I do to make ubuntu run faster
[02:39] <churl> quicksilver_: audacious :)
[02:39] <Onidemo> thanks
[02:40] <MindVirus> tsuna27, get better hardware.
[02:40] <churl> quicksilver_: or if you have the kde libraries, amarok
[02:40] <MindVirus> tsuna27, Ubuntu is remarkably optimized.
[02:40] <whydoesithurt> !sbackup
[02:40] <MindVirus> Close running processes or tabs, tsuna27.
[02:40] <Tech-Mike> metacity instead of compiz, or withouth X
[02:41] <Nautilus__> tx guys
[02:41] <jcapinc> tsuna27 what type of machine are you running?
[02:41] <liquid> Is there any way to limit cpu/memory consumption on a process basis, rather than a user (which I would use ulimit for) ?
[02:41] <quiksilver> audacious doesnt store my music
[02:42] <quiksilver> and its tiny
[02:42] <Onidemo> I'm trying to reinstall my ATI card's drivers , i downloaded a file from www.ati.com  that ends with .run  , how do i execute it?
[02:42] <Tech-Mike> ya its winamp style
[02:42] <tsuna27> jcapinc: a toshiba laptop
[02:42] <quiksilver> tiniest little window ive ever seen
[02:42] <Tech-Mike> uses playlists
[02:42] <mindrape> Onidemo - ./thefile.run
[02:42] <Tech-Mike> use rythmbox then
[02:42] <quiksilver> i want to have a library
[02:42] <mindrape> Onidemo or you can type      bash thefile.run
[02:42] <Tech-Mike> rhythmbox
[02:42] <mindrape> Onidemo: you may have to chmod +x thefile.run
[02:42] <jcapinc> tsuna27: what type of processor
[02:42] <Onidemo> mindrape: ok, so i type this in Terminal ?
[02:43] <mindrape> yes
[02:43] <tsuna27> jcapinc: no clue centrino
[02:43] <mindrape> tsuna27 - to tell people your computer stats type          sudo lshw -short
[02:43] <mindrape> then copy and pastebin the results.
[02:43] <avantcore> quick question: I can get dual displays working properly using the ATI Catalyst control center (in 8.10) but when I restart my setting get reverted back to one display mirroring the other.  How can I fix this?
[02:43] <oholiab> quiksilver: what Tech-Mike said, rhythmox
[02:43] <luke_> Woot I'm in
[02:43] <jcapinc> tsuna27 the thing I dont get is th grey screen, I mean it sounds like a hardware problem and not ubuntu, as if there is something wrong with your screen
[02:43] <quiksilver> thanks guysj
[02:44] <atom^x> quicksilver_: gmusicbrowser
[02:44] <liquid> avantcore I have the same issue, I would love to know the answer
[02:44] <MindVirus> Forget gmusicbrowser.
[02:44] <luke_> thanks jcap
[02:44] <MindVirus> Don't install excess.
[02:44] <MindVirus> Rhythmbox is built-in and is excellent.
[02:44] <tsuna27> jcapinc: no it only happens when it freezs up
[02:44] <atom^x> bloat
[02:44] <tsuna27> !pastebin
[02:44] <atom^x> rythmbox = bloat
[02:45] <sellyoursoul> when i try to change directory via 'cd /home/myname' nothing happens.
[02:45] <mindrape> sellyoursoul: you are probably already there... type pwd
[02:45] <tsuna27> jcapinc:http://paste.ubuntu.com/107570/
[02:45] <Tech-Mike> atom^x  exactly, screw music librarys...just use playlists like winamp/audacious does (winamp can but that windows, bleh)
[02:46] <mindrape> sellyoursoul: you can just type cd ~
[02:46] <jedi06> jrib what is the package name?
[02:46] <quiksilver> Tech-Mike: where do i add the songs from
[02:46] <quiksilver> if i have alibrary anyways wats the difference?
[02:46] <Tech-Mike> for which, rhythmbox or audacious
[02:46] <quiksilver> audacious
[02:47] <Tech-Mike> first right click and do view- playlist editor
[02:47] <Tech-Mike> then use the ADD button
[02:48] <ValentineX> any link please to create usb live ubuntu drive from xp?
[02:48] <sellyoursoul> my drive is named 'green box'.  i'm entering 'cd /media/green box'.  terminal says directory doesn't exist
[02:48] <mindrape> when you have spaces you need a \
[02:48] <mindrape> cd /media/green\ box
[02:48] <marine> nightrid3r, what's u[ dog
[02:48] <sellyoursoul> ah ha thanks
[02:49] <jedi06> what is the package for R on ubuntu
[02:49] <nightrid3r> marine: yow
[02:49] <mindrape> sudo apt-cache search R
[02:50] <raldi> I'm trying to download bittorrent for feisty, but every single link is broken at http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/all/bittorrent/download
[02:50] <tsuna27> jcapinc: hows it goin
[02:50] <oholiab> mindrape: I didn't know taht, nice one :)
[02:50] <mindrape> sudo apt-cache search R | less
[02:50] <raldi> am i doing something wrong?
[02:50] <oholiab> mindrape: I usually just google it
[02:51] <oholiab> raldi: sudo apt-get install bittorrent
[02:51] <jcapinc> tsuna27 I just finished looking up your processor..... its OLD, I think tha machine is too old to run ubuntu
[02:51] <marine> nightrid3r,  finally figured out what i was doing wrong with the boot up in cd mode
[02:51] <nightrid3r> raldi: read the top frame on that page
[02:51] <jemerson> alguem ai?
[02:51] <raldi> oholiab: it doesn't work -- probably for the same reason that all those links are broken
[02:51] <tsuna27> jcapinc: what upgrades would you recommend
[02:51] <nightrid3r> marine: so you learned something new :)
[02:51] <jemerson> alguem do brasil online?
[02:51] <lstarnes> !br | jemerson
[02:51] <marine> nightrid3r,  yeah you can say that
[02:51] <mib_yp7344> tsuna27: have you tried xubuntu?
[02:51] <exodus_ms> !br
[02:51] <jemerson> opa
[02:51] <thomc> Is there a way to tell Ubuntu to automatically spin down my hard drives after a certain period of inactivity?
[02:51] <jemerson> br!
[02:52] <mindrape> raldi -              sudo apt-get update                        sudo apt-cache search torrent                    sudo apt-get install <pick one from prior list>
[02:52] <marine> nightrid3r, what option in the live cd
[02:52] <tsuna27> mib_yp7344: can I run compiz and make it look like a mac
[02:52] <jemerson> alguem do brasil a fim de tc?
[02:52] <mindrape> !hdparm
[02:52] <mindrape> thomc - man hdparm
[02:52] <exodus_ms> jemerson: #ubuntu-br
[02:52] <oholiab> raldi: hmm, strange, I just simulated the install and it was fine
[02:52] <nightrid3r> marine: ??
[02:52] <marine> nightrid3r,  do i chose to import the rest of the unallocated partition into this onee
[02:53] <raldi> oholiab: what site did it download it from? i can't find any site that actually has the .deb
[02:53] <nightrid3r> marine: what you want to do?
[02:53] <raldi> oholiab: are you sure your simulation really downloaded anything?
[02:53] <oholiab> raldi: I did the apt-get
[02:53] <marine> night what option do i chose in livecd to import/move the unallocated partition into this one
[02:53] <jcapinc> tsuna27 wll the memory is fine, but you might need a little more space for ubuntu and a better processor.  which for  a laptop is difficult to replace, so I recomend a new laptop.  Windows XP must be tough to run on that laptop
[02:53] <tritium> oholiab: the -s (simulate) switch doesn't actually do any downloading
[02:54] <oholiab> tritium: yes, ut it must check that the package is actually there mustn't it?
[02:54] <nightrid3r> marine: manual ?
[02:54] <tritium> oholiab: nope
[02:54] <tsuna27> mib_yp7344: whats the difference btw ubuntu an xubuntu
[02:54] <Tidus> ubuntu = gnome, xubuntu = xfce
[02:54] <oholiab> tritium: fair enough, learn something new every day :)
[02:54] <marine> nightrid3r,  it gives you several options one do explore without adding anything to your pc the other is check memory one is the actual install and the other is i forget LOL
[02:55] <tritium> oholiab: it's useful for showing you what additional packages will be installed due to dependencies, but it doesn't check anything over the network
[02:55] <nightrid3r> Marfi: do you want to install
[02:55] <tsuna27> Tidus: what does the mean for the end user
[02:55] <oholiab> tritium: yeah, I've done it for dependencies efore ut never to check whether the package will actually download
[02:56] <nightrid3r> marine: do you want to install
[02:56] <Tidus> tsuna27: they're both easy enough to use and configure. just depends on how much resources you wish to have used by the system, as xubuntu has slightly lower system requirements
[02:56] <bluelightningvid> is there a video compression program for ubuntu?
[02:57] <luke_> Need more help with my friends wireless network
[02:57] <tsuna27> Tidus then why would any1 use ubuntu if xubuntu can run better on older systems
[02:57] <exodus_ms> !mencoder
[02:57] <marine> no i have ubuntu installed already i want to use the unallocated partition i made with gparted the other day i couldn't do it because i'm in the system now
[02:57] <liquid> bluelightningvid check out mencoder
[02:57] <mindrape> luke_ what is wrong?
[02:57] <mindrape> !wireless
[02:57] <Tidus> tsuna27: that's almost like using why use linux when windows is already installed...
[02:57] <tritium> tsuna27: not everyone has older systems, for one thing.  Some people prefer gnome to xfce, for another, and *many* other reasons.
[02:57] <nightrid3r> marine: use try out
[02:57] <Tidus> tsuna27: some people prefer the feature set of gnome, some want more minimal
[02:58] <Tidus> linux is all about choice
[02:58] <luke_> Well he went into Terminal like the other guy said, and came up with this
[02:58] <luke_> 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)
[02:58] <marine> nightrid3r, no i have ubuntu installed already i want to use the unallocated partition i made with gparted the other day i couldn't do it because i'm in the system now
[02:58] <exodus_ms> bluelightningvid: ffmpeg
[02:58] <luke_> So what does he do to get his wireless internet connected?
[02:58] <nightrid3r> marine: use the first option
[02:58] <mindrape> luke_ sudo lshw -C network          which driver is it using (look near the bottom last 3 lines of the output)
[02:59] <marine> nightrid3r,  ut that isn't adding or hanging anything the my system in other words it's a demo version
[02:59] <mindrape> luke_         sudo iwconfig        make sure a device has wireless extentions.              sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid YOURAPNAME                  sudo dhclient wlan0                      (if you have WEP or WPA you need to also use iwconfig to set those parameters)
[02:59] <mindrape> after you iwconfig and set the essid you can issue              sudo iwconfig             again and if the access point on the 2nd line shows a MAC address then you are good.
[02:59] <nightrid3r> marine: yes so you kan use gparted to work on your disks
[02:59] <mindrape> that means you are associated.  if not then likely your driver is bunk and you will need to get a new one...
[03:00] <mindrape> 2 good links for wireless:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5693578   and    http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Download#DownloadlatestLinuxwirelessdrivers (2nd one is preferred choice if you use ath9k driver)
[03:00] <nblracer> I'm having a problem with switching users, i get a black screen sometimes
[03:00] <marine> nightrid3r, that's fine but when i made the unallocated part i had 60 gigs empty when  i used the demo version for some reason 1.37 gigs had been used up
[03:00] <mindrape> nblracer - CTRL ALT BCKSPC
[03:01] <nblracer> The monitor ios on and not in stanby
[03:01] <bluelightningvid> liquid: is mencoder in the applications menu? or the package manager for you
[03:01] <tsuna27> so can xubuntu do everything ubuntu can
[03:01] <nblracer> X is running
[03:01] <nblracer> mindrape:  i tried
[03:01] <IndyGunFreak> tsuna27: yes
[03:01] <Dr_willis> marine,  5% of a ext3/2 is reserved by default on any filesystem.. that is changeable with  the 'tune2fs' command
[03:01] <marine> nightrid3r, is that what it added when temparirly installing itself unto my desktop
[03:01] <mindrape> tsuna27: they are the same except for the window manager/window environment.
[03:01] <nightrid3r> marine: some programs use 1000M for a GB instead of 1024
[03:01] <nblracer> did not work, i can her the signle noise of X restarting but still a black screen
[03:01] <mindrape> tsuna27 - if you install ubuntu then install xfce you basically are running xfce... they pull from the same repositories...
[03:02] <mindrape> nblracer - CTRL ALT F2 and login then  cd /etc/init.d    then      sudo service gdm restart         then ALT F7 to get back to X
[03:02] <Luigi> Is there a way to check what all recent file cut/paste operations have been? I think I just accidentally screwed something up and would like to at least know what I did...
[03:02] <tsuna27> mindrape: so I have no need 2 uninstall ubuntu
[03:03] <mindrape> tsuna27 - if you have xubuntu you are running ubuntu w XFCE...
[03:03] <sirderigo> #join #ubuntu-co
[03:03] <tsuna27> mindrape: okay okay
[03:03] <exodus_ms> bluelightningvid: --> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MEncoder
[03:03] <nblracer> mindrape:  that does not sound like fix, but a work around
[03:03] <dal_work> hey all, having some problems with hibernate on my laptop running ubuntu. It was working but then freezing a few minutes after resuming. I thought the problem might have been the fact that the swap partition was smaller than the amount of memory in the machine, so I increased its size, but now it appears to hibernate (lots of disk activity after hitting hibernate before it turns itself off) but when turning it back on it will only do a norm
[03:03] <dal_work> al boot. The UUID of the swap partition appears to have changed when I increased its size, not sure if that's relevant.
[03:03] <marine> nightrid3r, i understand that but when i check  it now the full go gigs are avaiable when i used the demo version it had used 1.37 gigs of space
[03:03] <mindrape> nblracer - well perhaps this is a one time occurence where gdm got jacked up.  You can always check your X logs...
[03:04] <jcapinc> no, pres f2 type gnome-terminal press enter type sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop press enter type in your password press enter tsuna27
[03:04] <exodus_ms> bluelightningvid: and also take a look at ffmpeg --> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ffmpeg
[03:04] <mindrape> nblracer cd /var/log      look at all the Xorg logs... more/less them.
[03:04] <n8tuser2> dal_work -> then go ahead and change it to the new UUID in /etc/fstab
[03:04] <mindrape> nblracer - also /var/log/messages may have some helpful info
[03:04] <nightrid3r> marine: i have no idea what has happend then
[03:04] <bluelightningvid> exodus_ms: thanks
[03:05] <dal_work> n8tuser, thats done, it wasn't using the swap partition immediately after I resized it but it is now, it still appears to write the hibernate image then doesn't look for it when I turn the machine back on
[03:05] <exodus_ms> bluelightningvid: that last ffmpeg link will help with the install here is more info --> http://ffmpeg.org/
[03:06] <tien> hello there
[03:06] <marine> nightrid3r,  i don't want to make this difficult but i just checked with partition editor and it's smaller than i first made it
[03:06] <dal_work> n8tuser, I seem to remember some text being displayed when it resumed from hibernate (when hibernate was sort of working) along the lines of "using resume image" or "looking for resume image, can't find it, doing normal init" - there's nothing like that now
[03:06] <tien> Can I run "picasa" in Ubuntu
[03:06] <nightrid3r> marine: has to do with the blocksize
[03:06] <mindrape> !picasa
[03:07] <tien> yes
[03:07] <tien> thanks
[03:07] <mindrape> tien - when you get it      dpkg -i thefile.deb        (that installs deb files that you get NOT via apt-get)
[03:07] <marine> nightrid3r, ok so like you said just use the first option and then format to
[03:07] <daniequy> in: "root	(hd0,1)" what does it means the ",1"?
[03:07] <n8tuser2> dal_work -> honestly i dont trust the hibernate mode yet in linux, not quite stable yet i believe
[03:07] <nightrid3r> marine: yes
[03:08] <tsuna27> Jcapinc: if i do that my laptop will run faster?
[03:08] <marine> nightrid3r,  and point to the ext 3 which is my linux side
[03:08] <nightrid3r> marine: yes
[03:08] <jcapinc> tsuna27 yes, XFCE is a different window manager that is lighter AKA needs less power to run smoothly
[03:08] <luke_> mindrape
[03:09] <mindrape> luke_:
[03:09] <luke_> What exactly is my friend supposed to be looking for when he types that in
[03:09] <luke_> Cant cut/paste since hes not online on it ye.t....
[03:09] <mindrape> daniequy: read up here... http://www.linuxmigration.com/quickref/kernel/grub.html
[03:09] <marine> nightrid3r,  ok thsnks let me ask you a question i noticed that linux uses a lot more memory ideiling tha windows
[03:10] <emma> Perhaps someone here could tell me, how does one bring up a list of the wifi signals found?
[03:10] <nightrid3r> marine: can't comment on that, my last windows version was win98
[03:10] <mrwes> marine: it does?
[03:10] <mindrape> emma - sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[03:10] <luke_> mindrape?
[03:10] <marine> nightrid3r,  on windows with nothing runing in the backgrund i was using aout 178mb with linux it's aout 378mb it there something i'm missing
[03:10] <mindrape> luke_  - - check /msg
[03:11] <daniequy> mindrape: reading..
[03:11] <zelrikriando> how to make screenshots of dropdown menus
[03:11] <emma> Nothing like that in the gui part of ubuntu?
[03:11] <elashish> marine, commonly used programs are loaded into RAM, even if they're not being used
[03:11] <mindrape> emma - gksudo network-manager    I believe
[03:11] <exodus_ms> Print Screen
[03:11] <emma> mindrape: that isn't on the new desktop without starting it from the commandline?
[03:11] <jrib> emma: click on the network icon in the tray
[03:11] <mrwes> zelrikriando: click on the menu to drop down and then hit the print screen key
[03:11] <liquid> Does anyone know of a _good_ way to convert or edit AVCHD hidef video?
[03:11] <mindrape> emma - ALT F2
[03:11] <elashish> in the case that the memory becomes necessary, those programs are unloaded from RAM
[03:11] <tritium> emma: the network-manager applet should be running in your panel
 <what about it>?
[03:11] <zopiac> how do i add a printer that is directly connected to the computer with a d-printer port? (never used this sort of port; always network or USB :P )
[03:12] <emma> jrib, tritium, yes there's something there but it does not say anything.
[03:12] <marine> nightrid3r, the other thing i noticed is with windows i had aout 22 programs running in the background via windows manager and here i have about 40 programs
[03:12] <nightrid3r> marine: linux uses ram for buffering stuff but will clear it as needed
[03:12] <tritium> zopiac: d-printer?  Do you mean a parallel port?
[03:12] <mindrape> what command is he typing that you want to know how to interpret the output for?
[03:12] <vbabiy> Hey does any one else have this problem http://dpaste.com/111285/
[03:12] <zelrikriando> mrwes, i am asking because that method doesnt work
[03:12] <scunizi> zopiac, D port?  parallel centronics..?
[03:12] <mindrape> !cups | zopiac
[03:12] <zopiac> tritium ya, couldnt remember any other name for it other than d-sub :P
[03:12] <vbabiy> These two process start and just keep running till I kill them
[03:12] <emma> says: enable networking (checked), enable wireless (checked), connetion information, edit connections, about.
[03:12] <exodus_ms> luke_: it will show you what mindrape has previously typed to you all
[03:12] <emma> tritium, jrib ^
[03:12] <vbabiy> no idea what starts them
[03:13] <tritium> zopiac: the printer dialog should walk you through it, and detect your printer
[03:13] <nightrid3r> marine: linux uses small chunks of programs, in windows allot is one big program
[03:13] <marine> elashish, right now with just x-caht and awn loaded it's using 435md
[03:13] <Uplink> hello :D
[03:13] <unop> zelrikriando,  open up a terminal and run this.   sleep 5 && gnome-screenshot  # that gives you 5 seconds to setup your screenshot
[03:14] <jrib> emma: does the command line given to you before return more information?
[03:14] <jeeves_Moss> what would cause my Wireless connection so be REALLY slow?
[03:14] <disappearedng> Hey everyone I am doing an internal SCP transfer over lan, normally it goes about 11mb/s but now only 2 mb/s any idea how I can find out the cause of this ?
[03:14] <emma> let's see
[03:14] <brunner> When I play Flash audio on the web, it causes Miro to no longer be able to play audio.  Does anyone know why that might be happening?
[03:14] <marine> nightrid3r,  right now with just x-caht and awn loaded it's using 435md
[03:14] <tien> Can I use "mozilla thunderbird mail client in Ubuntu
[03:14] <jrib> brunner: what ubuntu version?
[03:14] <tien> 8.10
[03:15] <unop> tien, sure
[03:15] <scunizi> tien, yes.. sudo apt-get install thunderbird
[03:15] <nightrid3r> marine: as i said before i cant realy comment on memory usage
[03:15] <emma> jrib, mindrape, says: wlan0 interface does not support scanning.
[03:15] <tien> unop, where ca i download it ?
[03:15] <mindrape> tien - pull up Synaptic package manager...
[03:15] <brunner> jrib: 8.04
[03:15] <mindrape> emma - sudo iwconfig... what is the name of your wireless interface?
[03:15] <scunizi> tien, system>Admin>synaptic package managerr
[03:15] <unop> tien, it's available from ubuntu's repositories
[03:16] <exodus_ms> tien: sudo aptitude install mozilla-thunderbird
[03:16] <emma> mindrape: is that 'wifi0' ?
[03:16] <brunner> I just upgraded to 64-bit Flash from Adobe's website, and that's when the audio issues started.  Flash and Miro won't work at the same time.  Once one starts playing, it disables the other.
[03:16] <plytheman> so I'm trying to update my ATI drivers, is this a good guide? http://news.softpedia.com/news/Install-Nvidia-and-ATI-video-drivers-on-Ubuntu-Edgy-44388.shtml
[03:16] <exodus_ms> tien: or sudo apt-get install mozilla-thunderbird
[03:16] <unop> !thunderbird > unop
[03:16] <jrib> brunner: it will probably "just work" in 8.10
[03:16] <marine> nightrid3r, ok brother ut let me point something out i just checked and there is 41 programs loaded in my system monotor's screen
[03:17] <brunner> jrib: why's that?
[03:17] <plytheman> I made it as far as "sudo aticonfig -initial" and it told me there's no config file
[03:17] <mindrape> emma - most likely... sudo iwlist wifi0 scan
[03:17] <jrib> brunner: there were issues with flash and pulse in 8.04
[03:17] <marine> elashish, and most of them are sleeping ut still using ny ram
[03:17] <emma> mindrape, jrib doing sudo iwconfig actually is showing the ESSID I expected to see in a list of potential ESSIDs
[03:17] <brunner> jrib: I see.  How do I force a distro upgrade without using the command line?
[03:17] <jrib> !upgrade | brunner
[03:17] <nightrid3r> marine: every peace of functionality is a program in linux
[03:18] <elashish> marine, if your system is out of RAM, then the machine will start using swap - as long as swap is empty, you have enough memory available
[03:18] <marine> nightrid3r,  i have 4 gigs so it's not a big deal
[03:18] <emma> mindrape: that did it. You are quite good.
[03:18] <spaw1> how do i reset my password or see it?
[03:18] <Nomexous> marine, unused memory is wasted memory. Linux caches lots of stuff in unused memory to make things go faster
[03:18] <mindrape> emma-  thats what all the girls say...
[03:18] <plytheman> what's the easiest way to update my ati video drivers? I'm trying this: http://news.softpedia.com/news/Install-Nvidia-and-ATI-video-drivers-on-Ubuntu-Edgy-44388.shtml but its not working
[03:18] <emma> mindrape: :P
[03:18] <plytheman> please and thanks =D
[03:18] <[biabia]> the ubuntu disk has a nice feature to install  or run live on a computer thatwont let you boot from cd, but the library has deepfreeze or something preventing it. is there a way around that
[03:18] <jeeves_Moss> what would cause an almost 1second ping?
[03:18] <jeeves_Moss> what would cause an almost 1second ping?
[03:18] <[biabia]> lag
[03:18] <emma> mindrape: I'm surprised that there is no gui app by default on the desktop for doing that though.
[03:19] <mindrape> spaw1 - crack your /etc/shadow file            or login to single user mode (root) and        passwd YOURUSER
[03:19] <liquid> jeeves_Moss about 500ms of latency both ways
[03:19] <unop> spaw1, you can't view your password.
[03:19] <tonsofpcs> [biabia]: ask the system administrator
[03:19] <mindrape> emma - there should be... network-manager pops up on my laptop install (I turned it off on my desktop though)
[03:19] <emma> seems like there should be a way to see what 'hotspots' are available, if you are walking around with your laptop.
[03:19] <tonsofpcs> we will not help you break security systems
[03:19] <marine> Nomexous, i was just comparing windows memory usage to linux
[03:19] <emma> mindrape: network-manager does have an icon in my system tray but it seems to have no content in it.
[03:19] <mindrape> emma - System -> Preferences -> Sessions -> add network-manager to your startup list
[03:20] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, thanks professor.  I know that.  I've been having issues since the last update about a week ago.  even local on my LAN @ home, we're not doing much better than 200K/sec
[03:20] <n8tuser2> emma -> sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[03:20] <mindrape> maybe its not network-manager... lemme see if I can find it.
[03:20] <emma> mindrape: everything is greyed out except for VPN Connections >
[03:20] <marine> nightrid3r, i know windows need swap as linux does not and hasn't used any on my linux side yet
[03:20] <Nomexous> marine: Determining memory usage in Linux is kinda tricky. You might want to google it to see for yourself.
[03:20] <mindrape> emma - if you right-click on it you may have to choose Enable networking
[03:20] <jrib> mindrape, emma: nmapplet shows it for me, but it should be displaying them by default if the card works
[03:20] <mindrape> nmapplet... that is it!!!!!
[03:20] <bravo7> I have ubuntu x64
[03:20] <Nomexous> marine: I wouldn't worry about the fact that it seems like Linux is using a lot more memory than Windows.
[03:21] <liquid> jeeves_Moss What module does your nic use?
[03:21] <Its_me> USB Keyboard and Mouse not working on my "Ubuntu 8.10 - the Intrepid Ibex"?
[03:21] <bravo7> I have ubuntu x64 and i can't view youtube or any thing
[03:21] <Nomexous> marine: I hardly doubut it's the case.
[03:21] <elashish> jeeves_Moss can you test from another machine (possibly running windows)?
[03:21] <IndyGunFreak> bravo7: you need to install flash
[03:21] <plytheman> bravo7, flash plugins installed for FF/Opera?
[03:21] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, it's an Intel card.
[03:21] <cactus__> so i booted a laptop running vista with the ubuntu CD and installed ubuntu onto a flashdrive, now that's where GRUB is installed and the flash drive is required to boot
[03:22] <marine> Nomexous, that's fine cause right now it says it's using 11.4% of 3.7 gigs and no swap
[03:22] <mindrape> !grub | cactus__
[03:22] <jeeves_Moss> elashish, everyone else on the network seems to have normal speed, and last time I checked, the wired Intel NIC is fine as well
[03:22] <liquid> jeeves_Moss How long has it done this?
[03:22] <plytheman> ﻿what's the easiest way to update my ati video drivers? I'm trying this: http://news.softpedia.com/news/Install-Nvidia-and-ATI-video-drivers-on-Ubuntu-Edgy-44388.shtml but its not working.  Please and thanks =D
[03:22] <Its_me> USB Keyboard and Mouse not working on my "Ubuntu 8.10 - the Intrepid Ibex", please help.
[03:22] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, about a week (it started shortly after an update)
[03:22] <bravo7> plytheman for ff
[03:22] <mindrape> Its_me: plug them in and using your ps2 keyboard (you have one, right?)  type lsusb
[03:22] <emma> i have the nmapplet showing up in the gnome panel at the top. And networking and wireless are both enabled - indeed, the laptop is on the internet right now -- but what is funny to me is that there is no list of 'available networks' in this gui.
[03:22] <spaw1> i need some one on one help with make && install
[03:22] <elashish> jeeves_Moss can you revert to the state before the update
[03:23] <emma> without a list of available networks it might be hard, when roaming with the laptop to know what to get on to.
[03:23] <jrib> emma: what ubuntu version?
 Yes
[03:23] <mindrape> emma - it shows them for me... if you walk around, based on the beacon timing of each router, it will update.
[03:23] <bravo7> plytheman ff
[03:23] <emma> jrib: 8.10
[03:23] <scunizi> mindrape, might also be a bios setting for Its_me
[03:23] <liquid> jeeves_Moss Do you know what update(s) you installed?
[03:23] <marine> nightrid3r, windows is not even close to comparisom that's why i swtich
[03:23] <emma> mindrape: What do you click on to get the list of avaliable networks?
[03:23] <cactus__> so i should tell grub that I want it to be on my HD?
[03:23] <jeeves_Moss> elashish, I think I tired that.  This has been a longer standing install and has had 2 dist-upgrades, so I think I should blow it away and start fresh.  This is my road warrier laptop
[03:23] <n8tuser2> emma -> sudo iwlist wlan0 scan <-- is this overly difficult to type in your terminal to see hotspots around you?
 Its working correctly on my another OS, even in OS choice menu.
[03:24] <mindrape> emma - ask jrib... I dont use that except on my laptop which I barely bootup anymore.
[03:24] <jrib> mindrape: ditto
[03:24] <elashish> jeeves_Moss i would test from a boot disc first
[03:24] <marine> nightrid3r,  just want my machine to be in perfect health
[03:24] <plytheman> bravo7: check http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-newbie/110894-how-install-flash-player-firefox-ubuntu.html
[03:24] <exodus_ms> Its_me: did you upgrade from 8.04
[03:24] <IndyGunFreak> emma: you can left clcik on nm-applet, and it should show networks you wireless device can see
[03:24] <mindrape> Its_me - check dmesg for errors... ?
[03:24] <emma> n8tuser2: well i did that earlier and it says it does not support that, however, doing: "sudo iwlist wifi0 scan" does give me a list of available networks in the command line.
[03:24] <bravo7> plytheman for 64?
 No fresh install
[03:25] <jeeves_Moss> elashish, yea, I'll do that when I get home.  I think I've still got the orignal disks I ordered somewhere around the house.
[03:25] <jeeves_Moss> elashish, all I know is that the network install of Ubuntu (the mini disk) is a life saver on old/odd ball systems
[03:25] <bravo7> plytheman sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree?
[03:25] <plytheman> bravo7: not sure, I'm still pretty new to buntu myself, but that should work
[03:25] <n8tuser2> emma -> replace wlan0 with your wireless nic name perhaps ath0
[03:25] <marine> nightrid3r, still with us
[03:25] <elashish> jeeves_Moss agreed, and if the latest version doesn't work, i would revert back to LTS
[03:25] <Its_me> mindrape: but I am using same Keyboard in PS/2 mode.
[03:25] <bravo7> plytheman i think i got it
[03:25] <emma> n8tuser2: Huh?
[03:26] <plytheman> sweet deal
[03:26] <mindrape> emma - I think I might know the problem... if you got your wireless device working via        sudo iwconfig you may need to sudo ifconfig wifi0 down     then re-enable it via nm-applet so it "has control"
[03:26] <jeeves_Moss> elashish, is 9.0 out yet?
[03:26] <elashish> jeeves_Moss it's in alpha, you can try it but it's not recommended - it won't be out until april
[03:26] <jeeves_Moss> elashish, I'm wondering if it'll fix my nVidia GO issue and actully let me run 3D stuff without locking up my system every 3 mins
[03:26] <scunizi> What does pci=nomsi mean in the kernel line?  what does it do?
[03:26] <elashish> jeeves_Moss i doubt it, nVidia is nVidia :-(
[03:27] <n8tuser2> emma -> wireless nic names varies, it could have been wllan0, ath0, anyname0, eth1
[03:27] <emma> mindrape: my guess is that the same reason "sudo iwlist wifi0 scan" works and "sudo iwlist wlan0 scan" does not, is the same reason that there is no list of available networks showing up in the nm-applet. Maybe there is some way to tell nm-applet to scan using wifi0 too.
[03:27] <EagleScreen> what is ubuntu hug day?
[03:27] <mindrape> emma - maybe so... perhaps you can pass it parameters when you launch it?  man nm-applet ?
[03:27] <exodus_ms> Its_me: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE
[03:27] <Its_me> mindrape: I mean shall I connect my USB mouse first and then check for errors? because I am using same keyboard and I need it to type commands.
[03:27] <plytheman> Can someone help me with updating my ati drivers?
[03:28] <mindrape> yes Its_me  :)
[03:28] <jrib> EagleScreen: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/ everyone works on bugs together and hugs each other :)
[03:28] <jeeves_Moss> elashish, well, I installed the restricted drivers, and as the system runs, the "freezing" gets worse and worse.  I blame it on nVidia and Toshiba.  This "bastard child" they created has keept me close to going insane!
[03:28] <mindrape> !ati
[03:28] <cactus__> !grub
[03:28] <plytheman> ubottu: thanks, checking now
[03:28] <EagleScreen> jrib I said Hug day
[03:28] <liquid> jeeves_Moss can you run 'lspci -k' and tell me what module your nic uses?
[03:28] <Its_me> exodus_ms: Thanks, I will be back in a while.
[03:28] <emma> n8tuser2: Where does one make that replacement?
[03:28] <jrib> EagleScreen: yes, I read that.  You didn't read my link though :)
[03:29] <n8tuser2> emma -> can be done via udev rules
[03:29] <Its_me> mindrape: Thanks, I will be back in a while.
[03:29] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, one sec please.  I'm setting up a hosting account for a client
[03:29] <EagleScreen> then bith are the same?
[03:29] <elashish> jeeves_Moss what to do, maybe replace the video card with something cheap?
[03:29] <liquid> k
[03:29] <elashish> and guaranteed to work...
[03:29] <liquid> have fun with that, we use cPanel where I work and I loathe it
[03:29] <exodus_ms> Its_me: that will just spit out a bunch of stuff look for is EE
[03:29] <jeeves_Moss> elashish, I'd love to, but this laptop has it "on board"
[03:29] <elashish> shame...
[03:30] <jrib> EagleScreen: from the wiki: "The term HugDay is a spin on BugDay but every time someone triages a bug, then someone else should hug him/her"
[03:30] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, lspci -k dosen't work.  invalid switch
[03:30] <liquid> ??
[03:30] <mindrape> jeeves_Moss: you are using ubuntu, right?!?
[03:30] <EagleScreen> thnaks
[03:30] <jeeves_Moss> mindrape, yes
[03:30] <liquid> mindrape That;s what I first thought...
[03:30] <workingchair> Can I get MS silverlight and photosynth to work on ubuntu?
[03:30] <mindrape> -k is a valid switch...
[03:31] <n8tuser2> workingchair -> stay in windows if you want to use those tools
[03:31] <mindrape> workingchair: possibly w wine... www.winehq.org and check compatability level in the appdb
[03:31] <tritium> workingchair: silverlight for sure.  I don't know what photosynth is
[03:31] <jeeves_Moss> mindrape, I'm getting an error that's telling me it's invalid
[03:31] <redvamp128> workingchair:  the linux one for silverlight is moonlight
[03:31] <exodus_ms> make sure he type lspci correctly
[03:31] <liquid> workingchair Silverlight 1 is implemeted via mono, Silverlight 2 (like netflix uses) mono doesn't support yet
[03:31] <mindrape> well it'd probably say command not found if he did that.
[03:31] <redvamp128> workingchair:  though it can only do with the stable Silverlight 1.1
[03:31] <tritium> workingchair: I used moonlight today
[03:32] <Fezzler> anyone ever sync a Palm with Ubuntu?
[03:32] <Fezzler> I can sync everything but Evolution
[03:32] <mindrape> personally, if I want to use windows tools I rev up WinXP via VMWare... like n8tuser2 said, if you wanna use Windows tools then use Windows...
[03:32] <mindrape> !palm
[03:32] <jeeves_Moss> Fezzler, good luck!  it works a lot better than syncing to a windows mobile device
[03:32] <workingchair> Well I'm mainly just wanting to see the CNN 3D Photosynth of the inauguration.  I'll just check it out on my windows box...
[03:32] <redvamp128> workingchair:  this is the moonlight page- http://www.mono-project.com/Moonlight
[03:32] <workingchair> thanks
[03:32] <liquid> jeeves_Moss What shell are you using?
[03:33] <redvamp128> working unless it is in 2.0 standards
[03:33] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, I think it's the default.  I know I haven't changed it
[03:33] <liquid> k
[03:33] <redvamp128> workingchair:  Though there is a beta of 2 out there and you may have to compile that can view Silverlight 2.0 content
[03:33] <cactus__> um i installed ubuntu onto a flash drive, but it installed grub there, now i think I want to install grub onto my main HD partition, but I'm confused about how to do that
[03:33] <liquid> jeeves_Moss Sorry man, I think you may have some deeper options. lspci has had the k switch since... well... like forever :)
[03:34] <spaw1> i need help with making and installing some drivers
[03:34] <PC_Nerd> Hi,  using gparted, how can I move a ntfs partition out of an extended partion?
[03:34] <liquid> jeeves_Moss options => problems
[03:34] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, ok, one sec, I'll try it on my Ubuntu server
[03:34] <liquid> jeeves_Moss ok
[03:34] <redvamp128> !moonlight
[03:35] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, http://pastebin.ca/1314246
[03:35] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, there ya go!
[03:35] <brunner> Why does my updater want me to remove Miro?
[03:35] <mindrape> spaw1 - sudo modprobe drivername
[03:35] <spaw1> i have to make it and the read me file is really confusing
[03:36] <mindrape> spaw1 - did you sudo apt-get install build-essential  ?
[03:36] <liquid> jeeves_Moss Yeah, that's what it says
[03:36] <spaw1> nope this is a fresh install
[03:36] <Fezzler> jeeves_Moss: Have you ever sync'd a Palm?
[03:36] <mindrape> if so then                        ./configure        sudo make             sudo make install                    from the path where the files were extracted to.
[03:36] <jeeves_Moss> Fezzler, nope, sorry
[03:36] <mindrape> drop the sudo actually from the makes...
[03:36] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, see, I'm not lying!
[03:36] <liquid> jeeves_Moss You know this is a stretch, but is it possible your machine has been rootkit'd ?
[03:36] <mindrape> or add it to sudo ./configure.  :P
[03:37] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, both systems?
[03:37] <liquid> jeeves_Moss I know for a fact your system binaries have been modified or redirected, but I can't tell you why
[03:37] <mindrape> spaw1 - usually if its a driver you need to sudo though... and in the event it fails and you wanna get rid of it then             sudo make uninstall them remove the directories...
[03:37] <liquid> jeeves_Moss Ask anyone else in this chat to run 'lspci -k'
[03:37] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, that dosen't make any sense though.  BOTH systems?  my laptop AND the server?
[03:37] <liquid> jeeves_Moss I'm not just jacking with you - that is a valid switch
[03:37] <exodus_ms> I did, it worked
[03:38] <mindrape> jeeves_Moss: lspci --version
[03:38] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, I'm not saying you're lying, I'm just saying it's strange that I've got 2 differen't systems on each side of the country, and they're both pulling the same crap
[03:38] <mindrape> jeeves_Moss:   man lspci
[03:38] <liquid> jeeves_Moss Sorry man, you might want to play wack-a-mole with you staff, you might uncover some espionage
[03:38] <jeeves_Moss> mindrape, 2.2.4
[03:38] <mindrape> lol
[03:38] <mindrape> well mine is 3.0.0
[03:38] <mindrape> maybe 2.2.4 is ancient and -k is something else?
[03:38] <protocol1> my system said gave me a message saying the defaults for my power manager might have not been installed correctly........there a way to fix this?
[03:39] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, lol, if I play that, then the lead shot filled bomb bat is coming in from the Jag, and it's not going to look good
[03:39] <protocol1> there a way I can get this fixed?  http://paste.ubuntu.com/107414/
[03:39] <liquid> mindrape I have been using -k since at least fc5...
[03:39] <mindrape> fc5... I just barfed a bit in my mouth.
[03:39] <jeeves_Moss> mindrape, it's the same version on the laptop and the server
[03:39] <liquid> jeeves_Moss lol.
[03:39] <Its-me> mindrape: I typed dmesg command after connecting USB Mouse and it displayed a very long message, how shall I show you the message?
[03:39] <mindrape> Its-me - pastebin.com
[03:39] <liquid> jeeves_Moss Well, you def. aren't using the standard binaries that come with any contemporary release of Ubuntu.
[03:40] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, my staff are like cockroaches when I'm in a bad mood
[03:40] <mindrape> jeeves_Moss: lsb_release -a
[03:40] <jeeves_Moss> ??
[03:40] <mindrape> type that
[03:40] <jeeves_Moss> mindrape, 8.04.2
[03:41] <joejc> does it do anything if i install direct x
[03:41] <spaw1> mindrape : this is what i got i dont think it made it right http://pastebin.com/m3fa703dc
[03:41] <exodus_ms> I'm new to this but I didn't see a -k option --> https://www.cs.drexel.edu/cgi-bin/manServer.pl/lspci.8
[03:41] <Its-me> mindrape: Here is the link of my message "http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=d68b45f62"
[03:41] <PC_Nerd> Any ideas on moving an ntfs partition from inside an extended partition to "next to" the extended partition?
[03:41] <jedi06> is there something like disk defrag for linux?
[03:42] <redvamp128> joejc:  that is a question-- you should ask in #winehq -- should be able to tell you more in that room
[03:42] <mindrape> !defrag | jedi06
[03:42] <mindrape> !gparted | pc_nerd
[03:42] <redvamp128> joejc:  if you want to install direct x-- you should need wine and probably winetricks as well as a valid MS liscence
[03:42] <_Vi_> jedi06: usually defragging in linux isnt necessary,
[03:43] <redvamp128> joejc:  I would probably ask that kind of info about direct x in room #winehq
[03:43] <PC_Nerd> im using gparted, but I cant seem to find any way to actuall move the partition outside of its extended "parent"....  it seems it only creates resizes and moves within the current position (ie move it around inside the extended, but not move it out of) ?
[03:43] <liquid> jedi06 You really don't want to - you have to mount your disk in ext2 and run tools in single mode - I wouldn't even think about doing that unless you are certain your disk is really fragmented
[03:43] <mindrape> spaw1 - sudo apt-get install autoconf
[03:43] <jeeves_Moss> mindrape, any ideas on how to force an upgrade of lspci?
[03:44] <mindrape> jeeves_Moss - you can download a .deb of it and dpkg -i it
[03:44] <jeeves_Moss> mindrape, touche
[03:44] <mindrape> or update your repos in /etc/apt/sources.list and sudo apt-get update
[03:44] <Its-me> exodus_ms: Here is the link of my message "http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=d68b45f62" after connecting USB Mouse.
[03:44] <mindrape> or maybe yell at your cockroach staff to figure it out?
[03:44] <edwardnihil> Hi all.
[03:44] <liquid> mindrape I want to know what else has been done to the machine - I wold said if basic binaries are different, than the networking issue is the tip of the iceberg
[03:45] <Mike_92> For some reason I can't open Firefox, I get the error that says: "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." I know this usually happens right after you close Firefox and try to reopen it, however I did not have Firefox open before this happened. I'm using Intrepid.
[03:45] <Kungfujoe_> Hey guys, I'm having a B of a time getting ubuntu to embed the terminal into the desktop, would somebody please help me?
[03:45] <Its-me> mindrape: Here is the link of my message "http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=d68b45f62"
[03:45] <redvamp128> Mike_92:  try opening -- system then system manager
[03:45] <mindrape> Its-me: see this link... http://www.mepis.org/node/5860
[03:46] <redvamp128> Mike_92:  I mean System- then Administration then System Monitor and look for firefox there and kill the process
[03:46] <cactus__> Mike_92:  i'd do ps -A then kill [firefox psid]
[03:46] <arnaldocapo> I there, hmm someone know what Experienced Non Manager means, when job hunting?
[03:46] <mindrape> Its-me - I imagine the echo N > /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/old_scheme_first would fix it for you...
[03:46] <spaw1> mindrape : installed the auto config and still got the same error
[03:46] <mindrape> spaw1 - lemme look again... hold.
[03:46] <jeeves_Moss> arnaldocapo, it means you'll be someone's bitch!
[03:46] <exodus_ms> mindrape: I was just curious, I searched for a man page for lspci 2.2.4 and found one. The -k option is not listed in the man page or is this irrelevant?
[03:47] <liquid> jeeves_Moss LOL, I would agree
[03:47] <redvamp128> Mike_92:  I would look for it in the System Monitor under the process tab
[03:47] <arnaldocapo> jeeves_Moss: Lol, no but what does it really means
[03:47] <jeeves_Moss> arnaldocapo, they want someone who knows what's going on and COULD do the managment position, but the current manager is being a bastard
[03:47] <mindrape> exodus_ms: thats what I found too ... :)
[03:47] <Mike_92> redvamp128: It worked as killing it under processes, thanks.
[03:47] <mindrape> spaw1 - okay, I think it wants you to    sudo apt-get install linux-kernel-headers as well. cause its looking for 'em just before the error occurs
[03:47] <Its-me> mindrape: "N > /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/old_scheme" is this the command that I have to type in terminal
[03:47] <arnaldocapo> jeeves_Moss: ahh k
[03:48] <liquid> arnaldocapo Or, you have a seriously inept manager that wants someone to make them look good, and the ad is just the beginning of the thumbing you receive and closet treatment and non-recognition
[03:48] <exodus_ms> ok, so that was it then, just needs to upgrade lspci via .deb
[03:48] <redvamp128> Mike_92:  for me I have to do it at least once a night as to sometimes the clear private data hangs
[03:48] <mindrape> Its-me - sure as the day you were born.
[03:48] <Starhero> Man, once you custimize ub to what you want, it looks really niiiiiiiiiice
[03:48] <redvamp128> Mike_92:  though I do know why-- Minefield -- testing
[03:48] <mindrape> exodus_ms: yeah... he is on 8.04.2
[03:48] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, and a lack of a "reach around"
[03:48] <Starhero> inside a cube and all 4 desktops...shit....i love this
[03:48] <Mike_92> redvamp128: It's happened to me once before, but I forgot how I fixed it that time. At least I know now in case it happens again.
[03:49] <exodus_ms> mindrape: thanks, just following along and trying to learan a thing or two :)
[03:49] <liquid> jeeves_Moss Def. no reach around, I could vouch for that.
[03:49] <mindrape> :)
[03:49] <arnaldocapo> jajajaj
[03:49] <Kungfujoe_> Hey guys, I'm having a B of a time getting ubuntu to embed the terminal into the desktop, would somebody please help me?
[03:49] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, I had a job like that once.  I underminded my manager for MONTHS.  it quickly esculated once her started taking pot shots @ my Jaguar.  So I just mono calking foamed his car to the road.
[03:50] <spaw1> mindrape : which one do i want to install it said i should says you should explicitly select one to install
[03:50] <mindrape> Kungfujoe explain embed the terminal into the desktop
[03:50] <mindrape> spaw1 - uname -ar
[03:50] <tritium> jeeves_Moss: please stay on topic
[03:50] <mindrape> !ot
[03:50] <edwardnihil> I've been googling for over a week now to no avail, but when I set my resolution to 1280x720 it is larger than my screen both vertically and horizontally. I've been using 8.1 for a little while and loving it all I just want my widescreen sorted. I have a GeForce 7950gx2 running on a 26" BEKO HDTV (BEKO-VJAZ1) using the recommended nvidia accellerated 177 driver. If I set it to 1360x768 then...
[03:50] <Kungfujoe_> @mindrape, you know when you have the terminal in front of your wallpaper, but behind apps, and it's transparent
[03:50] <edwardnihil> ...it fits vertically but is far too wide, even if I reduce the clock on my monitor as low as it'll go. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
[03:51] <CShadowRun> Can anyone help me? I'm trying to use garted to increase the size of a partition, it has unallocated space right next to it, and i still can't increase it's size :(
[03:51] <jeeves_Moss> tritium, thanks man, I'm sure you've NEVER gone off topic before
[03:51] <mindrape> Kungfujoe_ I think thats probably a gdesklet...
[03:51] <tritium> jeeves_Moss: it's a *very* busy channel
[03:51] <mindrape> Kungfujoe_: answer appears to be here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202249&highlight=terminal+desktop
[03:52] <jeeves_Moss> tritium, this is true.  and with a name like that, I'm suprized you didn't go necular on someone.
[03:52] <spaw1> mindrape : im not installing anything im getting this http://pastebin.com/m7f3cad13
[03:53] <cactus__> !grub
[03:53] <mindrape> spaw1 - uname -ar on its own... that will tell you the version to get.
[03:53] <mindrape> ie; kernel-headers-1.2.3-4
[03:54] <Its-me> mindrape: I am getting "Permission Denied" output even after adding sudo to the command.
[03:54] <exodus_ms> Kungfujoe_: there is an eaier way   sudo apt-get install tilda
[03:54] <Kungfujoe> tilda? sounds good, i'll try that, brb
[03:54] <liquid> So, when dmesg Tells me "Dazed and confused, but try to continue..." is this cause for concern?
[03:55] <liquid> Sorry, I meant 'Dazed and confused, but trying to continue'
[03:56] <Jerome_> lol
[03:56] <mindrape> liquid - as long as its trying dont rush it... the Dazed and Confused 60's drug reference is ... merely for your amusement.
[03:56] <Starhero> Something is really wrong with my sound tho, I can't capture on any devices, and I am getting wierd shit in the messages log
[03:56] <liquid> I think it's related to this (which happens right before it) 'Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason 00 on CPU 5'
[03:56] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, has anyone made a bulletproof "howto" on setting up a web hosting box from bare metal yet that's GOOD and works?
[03:56] <mindrape> liquid - good those errors.
[03:56] <mindrape> jeeves_Moss - you want to do LAMP development or what?
[03:56] <liquid> jeeves_Moss Well, I would just install LAMPS from Ubuntu server and be done with it
[03:57] <cactus__> so for grub, does the command setup (hd0) create a copy of Grub on that drive?
[03:57] <liquid> mindrape What do you mean 'good those errors' ?
[03:57] <mindrape> google
[03:57] <Starhero> When I do a test of the sound in gnome, it records for 2 sends then starts to break up and then ...just stops...sometimes the test windows then freezes!.
[03:57] <nightrid3r> jeeves_Moss: the perfect setup on howtoforge
[03:57] <liquid> mindrape I did
[03:57] <Starhero> I don't know how to fix it.
[03:57] <mindrape> google is good... so I get 'em confused.  nuk nuk
[03:57] <liquid> mindrape I ALWAYS google first
[03:57] <nisink> does anyone know how to enable paravitrulization for a ubuntu host
[03:57] <jeeves_Moss> mindrape, no, a good howto for setting up a Ubuntu baised web hosting server to start a company.  I'm sure that if someone made SOMETHING like that, then it could spur some more people to join us
[03:58] <jeeves_Moss> nightrid3r, you mean that mess? I followed it and it didn't work right!
[03:58] <mindrape> jeeves_Moss: I can write you one...

[03:58] <Gobby> days*

[04:00] <redvamp128> Starhero:  if you have an issue please ask and someone should help you
[04:00] <liquid> jeeves_Moss No no, it's good in this case. I'm a software engineer. I get to go tell the support dept. it's not our problem for oncem it;s the hardware :)
[04:01] <Starhero> When I do a test of the sound in gnome, it records for 2 sends then starts to break up and then ...just stops...sometimes the test windows then freezes!.
[04:01] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, lol, and if it was me, I'd be telling you that it must be a code issue!  LOL
[04:01] <Starhero> *2 secounds
[04:01] <CShadowRun> Can anyone help me? http://i39.tinypic.com/143418o.png Why can't i resize the ntfs partition into the unallocated space?
[04:01] <cactus__> so i accidentally Grub onto a flash drive and i can't find a good tutorial for like copying grub onto my main partition
[04:01] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, then we'd get a good laugh, order some new hardware, and hit the pub for a few pints
[04:01] <tritium> jeeves_Moss: I recall asking you to stay on topic
[04:02] <Starhero> I do have some wierd msgs in the message log
[04:02] <redvamp128> Starhero: what is that message --
[04:02] <Starhero> something about operation not permitted
[04:02] <Starhero> let me get the acutaul thing
[04:02] <liquid> jeeves_Moss That's sounds good to me. OTOH, I had almost forgot what a NMI was until I got that message... I love the linux kernel errors, they are so informal
[04:03] <Starhero> hold on...cuz seems i have to maunally type it
[04:04] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, give me one sec, I could use a hand figuring out WTF AWStats is telling me for an error since Tritium is acting like a catholic nun at a boarding school here

[04:04] <Mattsnakes> can someone walk me through burning the Ubuntu .iso onto a DVD? I am looking through the winrar archive that I torrented and I can't find a .iso file.

[04:04] <Its-me> USB Keyboard and Mouse not working on my "Ubuntu 8.10 - the Intrepid Ibex", please help.
[04:05] <redvamp128> Starhero does this look like your issue -- Bug #290052 in linux (Ubuntu): “STAC9872AK failed to get sound input” <https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/290052>
[04:05] <Starhero> that is one of them...let me actually open this file with something other then the log viewer
[04:05] <CShadowRun> Matthew|Laptop winrar opens .iso's like they are archives :P
[04:05] <Mattsnakes> so, when I burn it to a DVD it won't burn a winrar file onto my DVD?
[04:05] <CShadowRun> Mattsnakes shouldn't do.
[04:06] <CShadowRun> check it to make sure, it should be a .iso file
[04:06] <Starhero> If I kno correctly I don't have intel, I'll lspci tho
[04:06] <liquid> I don't mean to sound like a broken record, but does anyone know of a way to set limits on a process, that isn't based on user?
[04:06] <Starhero> I am possitive I have real tech
[04:06] <Hilikus> hey guys, some time ago i don't know what happened but it seems openGL is not working anymore, is there some way to test if it is currently supported?? i used to use opengl to render mythtv but now it doesnt start and shows this error
[04:06] <Hilikus> QGLContext::makeCurrent(): Cannot make invalid context current
[04:06] <Starhero> *tek
[04:07] <Hilikus> i can start mythtv if i used qt but i want to fix opengl in my system

[04:07] <nisink> has anyone had any success running the Xen enabled kernel with ubuntu especially with it acessing an encrypted disk
[04:08] <edwardnihil> No-one knows why 1280x720 goes off my screen? The only answer I could find was to try 915resolution but when I tried to get that it said it was outdated by something I already have.
[04:08] <liquid> well, ask him to let you stay
[04:08] <liquid> he is an op, it's his channel
[04:08] <edwardnihil> Where'd be the best place to get help, if not here?
[04:08] <liquid> Also, check you suexec logs
[04:08] <redvamp128> Starhero:  check out this one from-- Andres Mujica--              Andres Mujica          wrote     on 2008-10-19:                   (permalink)                                 Also, it seems the workaround could be a simple one. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/277532/comments/2 no need to kill PA, just change in audio preferences the sound capture item to Pulse Audio Server, and it would work OK.
[04:08] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, I have no idea what/where that is
[04:08] <tritium> jeeves_Moss: of course I did.  You were out of line with that comment.
[04:08] <liquid> locate suxec | grep log ?
[04:08] <CoJaBo-Eee> Does anyone know how to configure software RAID on Ubuntu Server installer?
[04:09] <mindrape> !raid
[04:09] <jeeves_Moss> liquid, dosen't find it!
[04:09] <liquid> jeeves_Moss Have you used locate? If not, make sure you sudo updatedb first
[04:09] <Mattsnakes> I figured it out, thanks.
[04:09] <liquid> jeeves_Moss Try running 'sudo updatedb' first
[04:09] <CoJaBo-Eee> mindrape: The guide I found is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID , but I can't figure out what is wrong.
[04:10] <liquid> jeeves_Moss It works from an index, yours might be stale
[04:10] <Starhero> I have changed the sound cap to other things, but alas it seems to do it on ALL things I could change it to, looking at the workaround tho 1 moment
[04:11] <liquid> jeeves_Moss 'It' being 'locate', fyi
[04:11]  * Guest_708[A] is now away - Reason : Work
[04:11] <redvamp128> Starhero:  after that that is all I could find about recording issues--
[04:11] <Starhero> I may be about to give more insight tho, since that was only ONE log line in the message file
[04:12] <CoJaBo-Eee> I get to the step where it says "create MD device", then it says there aren't any partitions. Anyone know how to fix that?
[04:12] <Starhero> pulseaudio[5898]: ltdl-bind-now.c: Failed to find original dlopen loader.
[04:12] <nisink> you have to make raid partitions on the disk
[04:13] <nisink> and then when you make the MD device you add them together
[04:13] <Starhero> killing PA and trying again
[04:13] <nisink> making the RAID Array
[04:13] <CoJaBo-Eee> nisink: They show up as "K raid" in the partitioner, is that right?
[04:15] <digitalj> Anyone use Ubuntu for their desktop and Debian as a server?
[04:15] <jeeves__> liquid, ok, sorry, connection issues.  where did you say that file is?
[04:15] <Starhero> gg that was it
[04:15] <Its_me> My USB keyboard and mouse not working, please help.
[04:16] <liquid> jeeves__ Run 'sudo updatedb'. then run 'locate suexec | grep log '
[04:16] <mindrape> I use Ubuntu for my desktop and laptop and for my server I have a zSeries tower running zOS 1.8 and zLinux in a zVM.
[04:16] <tonyyarusso> digitalj: I've used Ubuntu for both so far, but if I ever have an architecture that Ubuntu doesn't support Debian would be used for that for sure.
[04:16] <Starhero> sound works in the test thing now, tho it is using onboard mic (webcam) i am sure I can change that and will...then test again...if all is well...I will be aptemping ventrilo on linux yet again

[04:17] <liquid> jeeves__ Ok, I figured
[04:17] <tonyyarusso> Its_me: Have you confirmed that they work at all yet?  (another computer, dual-booting with Windows, etc.)
[04:17] <jeeves__> liquid, one sec.
[04:17] <cody> Ok, I'm still having problems with that desktop terminal embed. I'm going to be picky, I want the terminal to be BELOW my shortcuts, not above them, kind of defeats the purpose
[04:17] <jeeves__> liquid, the DB update worked, it found it.  one sec
[04:17] <Its_me> tonyyarusso: its working on my another OS and even in OS choice menu.
[04:17] <liquid> jeeves__ Cool.
[04:18] <jeeves__> liquid, one sec, I'll get the output
[04:18] <liquid> jeeves__ K. Are you in the UK?
[04:18] <cody> Could somebody who can bend the linux with their mind help me for a sec, I just need a clarification on some instructions
[04:19] <tien> does anyone know that whether VPN client (cisco) can be run in Ubunto 8.10 ?
[04:19] <Its_me> tonyyarusso: Here is the link which is the output of dmesg after connecting my USB mouse "http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=d68b45f62"
[04:19] <liquid> cody Bend the linux with their mind? As in there is no spoon?

[04:20] <redvamp128> Alinon try this one
[04:20] <jeeves__> liquid, ok, it's looking like the thing that it's trying to run isn't in the document root.
[04:20] <Alinon> redvamp128: didn't get an answer there heh
[04:20] <jeeves__> liquid, now to track down WTF that means
[04:20] <redvamp128> Alinon: pm
[04:20] <liquid> jeeves__ The document root is the root relative to whatever it is trying to open, or ' . ' to the document
[04:21] <tonyyarusso> Its_me: hmm - I'm afraid I don't know what to do with that.
[04:21] <liquid> jeeves__ Can you upload the log?
[04:21] <jeeves__> well, I copied it from a knowen working install
[04:21] <jeeves__> liquid, I'm chewing on pastebin right now.

[04:22] <liquid> jeeves__ OK. Also, whatever it's trying to open might be there, but it lacks permissions because the perms or ownership of the file don't jive with the UID:GID of the process atempting to open them
[04:22] <Its_me> My USB keyboard and mouse not working on ubuntu, please help.
[04:22] <digitalj> or find Ubuntu to allow any less configuration and customization?

[04:22] <jeeves__> liquid, hummm.
[04:23] <jeeves__> liquid, as far as I know, it's a .htaccess file to another section of the server.  it's just the stats program.
[04:23] <liquid> jeeves__ Is the file 'awstats.pl' where it's supposed to be?
[04:23] <jeeves__> liquid, as far as I know
[04:23] <disappearedng> hey how do I chown of a file so that my webserver can access it ?
[04:23] <liquid> jeeves__ What do you mean a '.htaccess to another section' ?
[04:23] <mindrape> sudo chown user.group thefile
[04:23] <jeeves__> liquid, yes.
[04:23] <mindrape> replace user and group with your new stuff

[04:24] <Wicked> whats a good network monitor?
[04:24] <mindrape> Wicked - describe what you wanna do.
[04:24] <Its_me> My USB keyboard and mouse not working on ubuntu, please help.
[04:24] <usser> Wicked: wireshark?
[04:24] <cody> what filename should I use for a configuration file?
[04:24] <mindrape> myconfig.conf
[04:24] <Wicked> mindrape, i want a app that will show me ingoing/outgoing speed.
[04:24] <scunizi> Wicked, wireshark if you can understand everything it wants to tell you.
[04:24] <tonyyarusso> digitalj: Not really.  When you're dealing with server stuff they're very similar anyway.  My main reason is pragmatic rather than technical anyway - I simply prefer the Ubuntu community.  Debian is at leas AS stable and fast; I just don't see a compelling enough reason to use it instead.  Would be comfortable doing so of course though.
[04:24] <cody> does it usually make a difference?
[04:24] <Wicked> usser, well like a monitor...not a packet sniffer.
[04:25] <ziggles1> Hi Guys, if i want to setup a client to be something like host.domain.com.... What do i need to do?  I'm not sure what to google.  thanks
[04:25] <cody> or just where it's located?
[04:25] <mindrape> Wicket - nm-applet doesn't suffice?
[04:25] <liquid> jeeves__ I'll be honest, I may not be able to help you further, I haven't ever personally configured awstats, it comes pre-installed on cPanel
[04:25] <mindrape> lol, I just called you an ewok, for this I apologize...
[04:25] <Wicked> mindrape, umm. im not sure. where do i install it?
[04:26] <Wicked> says no package named nm-applet
[04:26] <mindrape> ALT F2         gksudo nm-applet
[04:26] <disappearedng> hey how do I chown of a file so that my webserver can access it ?
[04:26] <jeeves__> liquid, well, I'd like to get my hands on cPanel, but I don't have the $$ right now
[04:26] <PC_Nerd> Any ideas on the new partition table?
[04:26] <Its_me> My USB keyboard and mouse not working on ubuntu, please help.
[04:26] <mindrape> oh... Wicked - sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
[04:27] <mindrape> Wicked - to find what package provides a program type              sudo dpkg -S nm-applet         as an example....
[04:27] <jeeves__> liquid, I wonder if the users I created arn't in the www access group
[04:27] <liquid> jeeves__ I wouldn't recommend it. Well, I would - sort of.
[04:27] <liquid> jeeves__ That's a possibility
[04:27] <jeeves__> liquid, oh?  what do you have in mind?
[04:27] <rebel_gui> can i kill tty1?
[04:27] <mindrape> rebel_gui - it will probably revive itself... from PID 1
[04:27] <Wicked> hmm ok. i started it..but i dont see anything? is nm-applet the little computer looking thing in the taskbar? if so that thing has been useless since i installed ubuntu.
[04:28] <mindrape> rebel_gui - why do you wanna kill it?
[04:28] <liquid> jeeves__ Well, if I had time and total control over the machine, I would probably just use webmin and write some scripts to add/disable/remove customers...
[04:28] <Wicked> because i manually set up my interface....due to having to bridge a connection for virtualbox
[04:28] <jeeves__> liquid, that's what I'm doing right now, but I need a "dummy proof" way of doing it
[04:28] <usser> Wicked: as of version 2.1 you dont have to do it anymore
[04:28] <Its_me> My USB keyboard and mouse not working on ubuntu, please help.
[04:29] <ziggles1> where do i start to learn how to configure a host as host.something.com so i dont have to use an IP address?
[04:29] <Wicked> usser, even if i want the virtual machine to get its own ip from a dhcp server?
[04:29] <liquid> jeeves__ Well, I guess the easiest is cPanel, but don't count on them to help you in an emergency, and be prepared to find yourself stuck trying to troubleshoot a 'cPanel assimilated' machine
[04:29] <mindrape> !bind | ziggles1
[04:29] <usser> ziggles1: dyndns.com would be a good start, then u can actually buy a domain
[04:29] <liquid> !setrlimit
[04:29] <fizzbane> Hello. I am trying to enable emerald but every time i do "emerald --replace" and close the terminal window the bar/window thing disappears. How do i fix this?
[04:29] <Wicked> because i am using the newest version of vb and dont see how that is possible....but thats another issue
[04:29] <mindrape> ziggles1: go google                     BIND dns A record
[04:29] <usser> Wicked: yep they made host networking really simple
[04:30] <Wicked> i just want a nice little app like xfce has.
[04:30] <ziggles1> mindrape: thanks.
[04:30] <jeeves__> liquid, the other option I've been "handed" is webmin
[04:30] <Wicked> usser, hmm ok ill have to look into it then...im still manuall making a bridge....but it works perfect for me....
[04:30] <liquid> jeeves__ I like webmin, personally.
[04:30] <jeeves__> liquid, and virtualmin I think is the one I was looking @
[04:31] <usser> Wicked: in 2.1 you just select Host networking in the vb settings and it works through magic
[04:31] <liquid> jeeves__ Yeah, virtualmin is the package for multi-site hosting
[04:31] <liquid> jeeves__ I couldn't remember the name off the top of my head
[04:31] <ziggles1> liquid webmin is opensource, correct?
[04:31] <liquid> jeeves__ Correct.
[04:31] <rebel_gui> mindrape, because it is unresponsive, once in a blue moon it locks up entirely, i can kill the processes running on it and its still stuck there, i would like to reload it
[04:31] <Wicked> usser, as nice as that sounds....it sounds flakey.....
[04:31] <mindrape> yes it is ziggles1
[04:31] <ziggles1> liquid, what do you like about it?
[04:31] <jeeves__> liquid, well, that's the general idea.  I have one sever in Toronto, and I'll put one up here in Vancouver
[04:31] <liquid> jeeves__ Ubuntu server manages it in the packages, so it's easy to get started
[04:32] <jeeves__> liquid, true.
[04:32] <Wicked> !applets
[04:32] <Its_me> My USB keyboard and mouse not working on ubuntu, please help.
[04:32] <Heavy-D> hey guys, i'm looking to install the msttcorefonts package but it says it doesn't exist anymore, how can I install it?
[04:32] <fizzbane> Hello. I am trying to enable emerald but every time i do "emerald --replace" and close the terminal window the bar/window thing disappears. How do i fix this?
[04:32] <liquid> ziggles1 I like it because it's MUCH easier than administering the system by hand, but it doesn't store meta information anywhere, it works off the files just like you would
[04:33] <liquid> ziggles1 You do have to somewhat know what you are doing, it won't hold your hand. It will just make your life much easier.
[04:33] <Wicked> bah. this network app that gnome comes with sucks...doesnt even display current speeds...just the networkload...in some god awful graph like monstrosity
[04:33] <ziggles1> liquid, cool... good to know
[04:33] <koshari> Heavy-D the package is just an installer afair
[04:33] <mindrape> fizzbane: emerald --replace &
[04:33] <liquid> ziggles1 For example, it *almost* completely manages backups for you ... if you want it to. Otherwise, it statys out of the way.
[04:33] <Its_me> Any one please, My USB keyboard and mouse not working on ubuntu.
[04:34] <fizzbane> mindrape, pardon?
[04:34] <mindrape> fizzbane: or you can ALT F2 and type it..       the trailing & disconnects from the term
[04:34] <Heavy-D> koshari: Any idea where to get it from?
[04:34] <koshari> medibuntu?
[04:34] <mindrape> !medibuntu
[04:34] <fizzbane> mindrape: i just type & at the end of the line?
[04:34] <mindrape> yes... emerald --replace &
[04:35] <mindrape> then you should be able to close the term.
[04:35] <jeeves__> liquid, ok, I reran the master update scripts, and it looks like it's a premission error!
[04:35] <mindrape> if not then ALT F2 and type emerald --replace
[04:35] <Tweaker420> anyone know how to implement voice recognition software
[04:35] <liquid> jeeves__ Ok, well great! So you solved it then?
[04:35] <fizzbane> Mindrape: how do i get back to my stuff when i type alt F2?
[04:35] <jeeves__> liquid, not really, I have to find out WTF isn't set properlt
[04:36] <jeeves__> *properly
[04:36] <mindrape> back to your stuff?
[04:36] <liquid> fizzbane Alt-F7
[04:36] <fizzbane> Mindrape: emerald --replace & didnt work.
[04:36] <spawn> mindrape : i got the drivers installed and i think working its showing under resrctied drivers as in use i think i need a wireless manager what should i install
[04:36] <mindrape> ALT F2 just pulls up a utility to run commands...
[04:36] <mindrape> CTRL ALT F2 will drop you to tty2... ALT F7 to get back to X
[04:36] <fizzbane> mindrape: ok. thanks. im a bit new to linux so yeah...
[04:36] <liquid> mindrape Ah, yes, I meant ctrl... thanks for correcting me
[04:38] <liquid> jeeves__ Try launching the awstats daemon from the console if possible, except put 'strace' in front.
[04:38] <liquid> jeeves__ You will get a ton of information, and it will reveal unsuccessful file system calls
[04:38] <fizzbane> mindrape: alt f2 is doing nothing....
[04:38] <mindrape> fizzbane - you in gnome?
[04:38] <jeeves__> liquid, one is a conflict with GeoIP and GeoIPFree, so I'll fix that one first
[04:38] <liquid> jeeves__ You will prolly have to weed through several screens of text, but it will be there
[04:38] <fizzbane> mindrape: yes
[04:38] <jams44> Hey whats the best way to find out my what my hardware specs are on my ubuntu laptop?
[04:39] <jeeves__> liquid, yep, I know where it is.
[04:39] <Tweaker420> anyone know what software to use for voice recognition?
[04:39] <liquid> jeeves__ Ok, cool
[04:39] <digitalj> jams44: lspci
[04:39] <werdnum> Is there a guide to troubleshooting webcam installation on Ubuntu?
[04:39] <digitalj> and google
[04:39] <mindrape> !webcam
[04:39] <liquid> digitalj You beat me to it :)
[04:39] <jeeves__> liquid, I usally get hung up on the premissions thing.  I'm a windows admin, so this is a learning curve
[04:39] <werdnum> mindrape: <3
[04:39] <fizzbane> mindrape: yes i am in gnome
[04:40] <jams44> digitalj: thanks bruh
[04:40] <liquid> jams44 And try 'cat /proc/cpuinfo'
[04:40] <digitalj> liquid: indispensable tool for kernel configs
[04:40] <liquid> digitalj OH yes!
[04:40] <jams44> liquid: thanks
[04:40] <liquid> jams44 Sure thing.
[04:40] <digitalj> nothing like a custom kernel tailored to your specific system
[04:41] <digitalj> without the extra bloat
[04:41] <mindrape> jeeves__ permissions are easy... read, write, execute... 4, 2, 1         add them together to get perms you want... 6 for rw  7 for rwx   etc....    in order from left to right its User, Group, Other permissions.... ls -alh...              touch TEST      then tinker w chmod 751 TEST     etc til you get it.  Also you can chmod u+x    for adding execute to User.  (ugo) (rwx)  + to add - to remove
[04:41] <un_dave> help! how do i uninstall something i've installed from source ?
[04:41] <liquid> jeeves__ We have a tech at work that comes from windows (which is where I started) I basically just told him everyone always remembers perms, but don't forget about ownership (basically, those are the only 2 things in *nix)
[04:41] <jeeves__> mindrape, thanks.  I'll have to do some reading on it
[04:41] <Tweaker420> anyone know what software to use for voice recognition?
[04:42] <liquid> digitalj Pfft, you sound like a Slackware hacker talking like that :)
[04:42] <jeeves__> liquid, true
[04:42] <christian> hello people
[04:42] <rootrot> Does this channel offer support for virtualbox?
[04:42] <digitalj> haha fuck slackware
[04:42] <Odd-rationale> rootrot: try #vbox
[04:42] <digitalj> what a pain to use
[04:43] <tonyyarusso> !ohmy | digitalj
[04:43] <tritium> digitalj: watch the language, please
[04:43] <rwparris2> how do I get rights to move a file into /usr/ ?
[04:43] <digitalj> i'd rather use gentoo and wait for long compile times
[04:43] <mindrape> Tweaker420: http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=install+"universal+access"+ubuntu
[04:43] <tonyyarusso> !sudo | rwparris2
[04:43] <digitalj> debian is a better hacker distro
[04:43] <rwparris2> mv is move?
[04:43] <alan187> Hello
[04:44] <mindrape> yes rwparris2
[04:44] <digitalj> rwparris2: and rename
[04:44] <miranda_psi> digitalj: and what about Gentoo?
[04:44] <rwparris2> so sudo mv startpath destpath ?
[04:44] <mindrape> yes.
[04:44] <rwparris2> ty
[04:44] <liquid> digitalj I actually started with slack... call me a masochist :)
[04:44] <igogo> liquid: slackware ?
[04:44] <digitalj> miranda_psi: Gentoo is good for learning the inner workings of linux and learning how to customize everything
[04:45] <digitalj> you have to compile a kernel yourself in the install
[04:45] <liquid> igogo Yeah... ubuntu/debian is far better (IMO)
[04:45] <miranda_psi> digitalj: thats what I meant - the ideal system to hack it into what you want... :)
[04:45] <miranda_psi> but as painful as hell
[04:45] <digitalj> yeah it takes a loooong time to finish an install
[04:46] <digitalj> but its soooooo fast when you do get it up and running
[04:46] <un_dave> could anyone explain how i uninstall something i've installed from source, using make install ?
[04:46] <liquid> digitalj Until you start trying to emerge things in life because you have to type it so often ;)
[04:46] <mindrape> if you want to get into the nitty gritty of linux then go for linux from scratch (LFS) , gentoo, or slackware... they will force you to manually configure things.     /offtopic
[04:46] <redvamp128> un_dave:  you could go back to that folder and choose sudo make unistall
[04:46] <mindrape> un_dave           ./configure             make                 make install                    you need to apt-get install build-essentials and kernel-headers and libc-dev I believe.
[04:47] <un_dave> redvamp128: i think i'll try that
[04:47] <mindrape> un_dave err.. didn't read what you wrote... yeah.. make uninstall  :)
[04:47] <igogo> gentoo provides genkernel to compile kernel
[04:47] <redvamp128> mindrape:  he said it was already installed-- so the same folder where he compiled should have the unistall info
[04:47] <digitalj> yeah thats true
[04:48] <digitalj> genkernel is nice
[04:48] <un_dave> redvamp128, mindrape: cool. it seems to have uninstalled. now to install the proper way with apt-get :)
[04:48] <redvamp128> what is the program un_dave ?
[04:48] <mindrape> sudo apt-cache search WHATYOUWANT            sudo apt-get install WHATYOUWANT
[04:48] <igogo> the manage strategies, apt-get and emerge, are both excellent
[04:48] <mindrape> if apt-cache doesnt find it then try          dpkg -S WHATYOUWANT
[04:49] <igogo> here is a really busy channel XD
[04:49] <un_dave> redvamp128: pidgin. it's installing as we speak. it needed some ssl stuff, and i realised i makde it from source, not apt
[04:49] <digitalj> you know what really bothers me about Debian
[04:49] <liquid> Or, just run 'apt-get  moo' for all the answers.
[04:49] <digitalj> iceweasel
[04:49] <digitalj> instead of firefox
[04:50] <igogo> I can't read all messages clearly.
[04:50] <redvamp128> un_dave you could have looked in synaptic in your system under synaptic package manager
[04:51] <mindrape> liquid - have you tried                     sudo apt-get install cowsay                              cowsay YAY!
[04:51] <walter1> hello people i just lost my whole harddrive right now i am using the live cd on my system and have ordered a new harddrive to reinstall ubuntu, my question is , is there a way to safely move my data off the old damaged harddrive?, it seems grub and the partition tables are damaged so mounting the harddrive in the live cd or booting into it didn't work
[04:51] <redvamp128> !cowsay
[04:51] <liquid> mindrape No, I'm totally going to do that now :)
[04:51] <un_dave> redvamp128: to install it ? or uninstall it? it wasnt there, because i didnt install it from a package, it was made from the source.
[04:51] <mindrape> redvamp128 - it just draws a cow w a dialog box above it and it will say YAY!  :P
[04:51] <mindrape> you can tell it to say whatever you want and it takes some parameters to configure how the cow looks.
[04:52] <redvamp128> that sounds about like Hotbabe on mediabuntu
[04:52] <mindrape> lol
[04:52] <liquid> LOL niiiiiice
[04:52] <liquid> I love it!
[04:52] <mindrape> you can get cowfiles or various pics... tux, women, etc
[04:52] <jeeves__> liquid, hummmm, this is strange, there's only one domain that's being a pain (the other new one didn't have the config file made yet, hence why it was erroring
[04:52] <redvamp128> mindrape:  though that one as your cpu gets under load her clothes disapear
[04:52] <mindrape> oh my.
[04:53] <redvamp128> Medibuntu -- Medibuntu packages <http://packages.medibuntu.org/>
[04:53] <mindrape> my gf might get jealous (assuming I ever let her touch my holy computer w her unholy hands)
[04:53] <kupesoft> Will Ubuntu prevent me from balding?
[04:53] <mindrape> no
[04:53] <kupesoft> :<
[04:54] <puff> Anyone familiar with using rsync between two machines?
[04:54] <redvamp128> Though you can google Hair Club For Men
[04:54] <Fezzler> how do I use grep to find a file?  .coldsyncrc
[04:54] <mindrape> grep is to search within files
[04:54] <mindrape> Fezzler - use locate or find
[04:54] <mindrape> locate .coldsyncrc
[04:54] <liquid> k, the gf is dragging me off, g2g
[04:54] <mindrape> for locate you need to periodically sudo updatedb
[04:54] <jeeves__> liquid, don't say it that way!
[04:54] <walter1> hello people i just lost my whole harddrive right now i am using the live cd on my system and have ordered a new harddrive to reinstall ubuntu, my question is , is there a way to safely move my data off the old damaged harddrive?, it seems grub and the partition tables are damaged so mounting the harddrive in the live cd or booting into it didn't work
[04:54] <liquid> Good luck, jeeves__ !
[04:55] <redvamp128> kupesoft:  ubottu google hair club for men
[04:55] <jeeves__> liquid, thanks.  TTL
[04:55] <liquid> I'll prolly be back to tomorrow, later
[04:55] <digitalj> walter1: you would have to take it to a place that specializes in that sort of thing
[04:55] <kupesoft> redvamp128: And googling will work faster than on Windows 3.1?
[04:55] <mindrape> walter1 - mount it               mkdir /media/OHMY && mount /dev/sda1 /media/OHMY
[04:55] <redvamp128> kupesoft:  I actually have NT4 Sp6a installed in a virtual Box
[04:56] <mindrape> kupesoft - well I run Windows 3.1 in my virtual machine and its pretty blindingly fast...
[04:56] <mindrape> I have Win3.1, Win98, and WinXP along w OpenBSD 4.3 in VM.
[04:56] <redvamp128> mindrape add one more-- puppy linux
[04:56] <mindrape> :P
[04:56] <kupesoft> mindrape: I run a VM with Vista running a VM with XP, running a VM with Windows 2000, running a VM with Windows 95, running a VM with Windows 3.1
[04:56] <redvamp128> 94mb iso
[04:56] <kupesoft> Okay enough fun, back to work :(
[04:57] <walter1> mindrape i tried that
[04:57] <mindrape> kupesoft: I just dropped my bible...
[04:57] <mindrape> walter1 - got errors?
[04:57] <ziggles1> does anyone know what kind of disk image vmbuilder generates by default?
[04:57] <miranda_psi> kupesoft: where's windows 98?
[04:57] <mindrape> walter1 - you may need to fsck it.... fsck /dev/sda1
[04:59] <kupesoft> miranda_psi: You win
[05:00] <walter1> mindrape this is what i get in fdisk -l
[05:00]  * mindrape ducks and covers in anticipation of the flood
[05:00] <walter1> dev/sda5  20809  91968   571578402   a1  Unknown
[05:00] <mindrape> so use sda5 instead of sda1
[05:01] <mindrape> walter1 - what does sudo lshw -C storage say?
[05:01] <walter1> thats supposed to be the home partition mindrape
[05:01] <rootrot> hi vbox shuts down after XP loads can anyone help? #vbox is dead ATM:http://pastebin.com/m66af93c9
[05:01] <jeeves__> mindrape, how/were do you set the access for the .htaccess?
[05:01] <walter1> dev/sda1   *        7682       38572   248124181    5  Extended
[05:01] <walter1> boot partition

[05:01] <walter1> swap
[05:02] <mindrape> jeeves__ you just create an .htaccess file in the directory you want the access to be uniquely enforced in.
[05:02] <miranda_psi> !paste | walter1
[05:02] <mindrape> then you go to #apache and ask or google as that isn't related to #ubuntu.  :)
[05:02] <jeeves__> mindrape, I was wondering how you add users, etc
[05:02] <biru> irc://irc.freenode.net/cakephp
[05:02] <mindrape> man useradd
[05:02] <mindrape> oh, in htaccess?
[05:03] <jeeves__> mindrape, yes.  I have the directory allready protected,  I just need to see if this is a premissions error
[05:03] <phanbt> hi guys how do you downgrade kernel 2.6.24-7?
[05:04] <phanbt> I have a kernel patch for 2.6.24-7 but I don't know how to downgrade
[05:05] <phanbt> so that can't patch it
[05:05] <biru> cakephp
[05:05] <phanbt> I'm sorry.. Let me say this again. I have a kernel patch for 2.6.24-7. But I don't know how to downgrade to that version it's not in synaptic
[05:06] <RegressLess1> Evening all!
[05:06] <miranda_psi> phanbt: it should be an option in the boot menu to boot to that kernel
[05:06] <RegressLess1> How does one get his webcam working on Ubuntu 8.10?
[05:06] <werdnum> !webcam
[05:07] <phanbt> miranda_psi:  there is ?
[05:08] <OmegaWarrior> Hello, I need help with installing Adobe's flash 9 debug plugin.
[05:08] <miranda_psi> phanbt: should be - should be 2 options for each of the -7 and -9 kernels (1 for normal boot and 1 for single user mode) you can check by looking in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:14] <brand0con> data recovery question: tried to erase an NTFS partition and expand a FAT partition on the same drive in order to make the entire drive FAT.  gparted couldn't finish the operation after 7+ hrs and i cannot access the drive or data
[05:14] <brand0con> any advice?
[05:14] <werdnum> I'm still having trouble with a webcam.
[05:14] <werdnum> It's made by Microsoft :P
[05:15] <werdnum> It *seems* as though it *should* work in luvcview, but I just get a black screen.
[05:15] <werdnum> It picks up the res and framerate and all that.
[05:15] <brand0con> partition table seems to still be in place with /dev/sdb1 and sdb2 showing up but gparted tells me the type is unrecognizable
[05:16] <kevinle> It says, update_modules is deprecated
[05:16] <brand0con> werdnum: try a different program
[05:16] <kevinle> what do i use instead?
[05:16] <werdnum> brand0con: using Skype doesn't work either.
[05:16] <werdnum> I click 'test' and the test screen stays white.
[05:17] <nashmack> Hi everyone
[05:17] <brand0con> werdnum: lspci to see if the device is recognized in the terminal
[05:17] <nashmack> Can anyone help a newbie?
[05:17] <miranda_psi> !ask
[05:18] <un_dave> could someone tell me how to disable my vpn connection as the default route ?
[05:18] <werdnum> brand0con: Doesn't appear in lspci, but it does appear in lsusb

[05:18] <nashmack> K, i'm having an issue in Xubuntu, it seems I've lost my panels and don't know where to find them :(
[05:19] <werdnum> nashmack: I don't think Xubuntu has panels.
[05:19] <werdnum> right click on the desktop.
[05:20] <brand0con> im positive it has panels actually
[05:20] <nashmack> When I right click on the desktop it gives me the applications menu
[05:20] <freshhawk> werdnum, uh...what? XFCE has panels
[05:20] <brand0con> havent run it in a while but i thinnnk it has a menu entry
[05:20] <werdnum> freshhawk: I didn't think so, oh well :)

[05:23] <bluedragon> I have a quick question
[05:23] <bluedragon> need some help
[05:23] <werdnum> I'm suspecting it's kernel incompatibility, or some dodgy headers or something
[05:23] <miranda_psi> !ask | bluedragon
[05:23] <brand0con> werdnum: i'd be stuck at the same point to be honest.  sorry

[05:24] <vduck> Hey, I'm trying to get a program (Never Winter Nights Linux Client) to use an i386 version of SDL
[05:24] <nickrud> ubottu tell gerob about cairo-dock
[05:24] <bluedragon> Well My question is I am planing to buy a new computer and I don't wont to loose all my settings and everything is there a way to back up the whole ubuntu os and like restore it on my new computer
[05:24] <brand0con> maybe another will do the trick. even vlc has capture devices supported now
[05:25] <vduck> I think (?) it's going for the x86_64
[05:25] <vduck> of the SDL
[05:25] <vduck> Help?
[05:25] <h00k> I have two gnome panels, both are NOT set to expand, but where would I look to make the caps (yes, I have show 'hide buttons' unchecked) (see http://drop.io/n8qxpqj)
[05:25] <nickrud> bluedragon, if you have never manually edited /etc/* , making sure you have a backup of your home should transfer all your personal settings
[05:25] <h00k> caps transparent*
[05:25] <tweak66> has anyone use gnome-voice-control
[05:25] <Cymblot> o
[05:25] <freshhawk> bluedragon, you should be able to just copy your home folder over and be good to go
[05:26] <bluedragon> nickrud even software
[05:26] <miranda_psi> bluedragon: most program settings for the user are kept in their home directory, so you can copy those and be set
[05:26] <nickrud> bluedragon, and   sudo dpkg --get-selections > mypackages.txt , moving that file to the new machine after install, then sudo dpkg --get-selections < mypackages.txt && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade will restore the software
[05:26] <vduck> bluedragon: when you set if up, have /home mount to a separate partition. You can reinstall / without touching it. which doesn't help if you've already set it up....
[05:26] <nickrud> bluedragon, that's sudo dpkg --set-selections < mypackages.txt as the second command
[05:27] <gerob> What is the shortcut for switching workspaces please?
[05:27] <bluedragon> Nickrud you lost me
[05:27] <nickrud> gerob, ctl-alt-> left/right arrow
[05:27] <miranda_psi> gerob: ctrl+alt+(left or right arrow)
[05:27] <bluedragon> ok lets say i installed ubuntu on my new computer what do i do next
[05:27] <gerob> Any reason why it wouldn'
[05:27] <gerob> t be working?
[05:27] <nickrud> bluedragon,   sudo dpkg --get-selections > mypackages.txt will get a list of all installed software, and save it in a file
[05:27] <tweak66> gerob: if you have graphics magicx all the way on you can use the mouse scroll
[05:28] <vduck> gerob, thanks for asking that; I've wanted to know that for a whiile
[05:28] <h00k> I have two gnome panels, both are NOT set to expand, but where would I look to make the caps transparent? (yes, I have show 'hide buttons' unchecked) (see http://drop.io/n8qxpqj for screenshot)
[05:28] <mattgyver83> Are Ad-Hoc networks automatically detected in hardy?
[05:28] <h00k> mattgyver83, yep
[05:28] <miranda_psi> gerob: you could override or disable that feature from compiz
[05:28] <gerob> Ahh might be what i did
[05:28] <bluedragon> nickrud ok got you
[05:28] <nickrud> bluedragon, then   sudo dpkg --set-selections < mypackages.txt will read that list, on the new machine, and set them up for installation.  sudo apt-get deselect-upgrade  will perform the actual download and install
[05:28] <pizzledizzle> did u know that jack bauer spent 2 years in chinese captivity where he was tortured?
[05:28] <tweak66> has anyoned use gnome-voice-control?
[05:29] <rww> !ot | pizzledizzle
[05:29] <nickrud> pizzledizzle, tv talk in #ubuntu-offtopic please :)
[05:29] <quibbler> h00k, right chick on panel ..then properties the background
[05:30] <h00k> quibbler, transparent, yes, they are set to that already
[05:30] <RegressLess1> sorry, I still need help with my webcam issue. Ubuntu Community Documentation did not help
[05:30] <bluedragon> oh ok
[05:30] <nickrud> !webcam | RegressLess1 (about all I know, except mine Works for Me™)
[05:30] <bluedragon> thanks nickrud
[05:31] <vduck> My program is wanting 386 versions of the SDL libraries, I'm running i686. Can anybody help?
[05:31] <h00k> quibbler, regardless of transparency, when it's not expanded, those little side-dealio's are still there
[05:31] <quibbler> h00k, do you want to expand..unexpand
[05:31] <RegressLess1> nickrud: Yes, Obottu told me that earlier (yes I know it's not a real person). It was not helpful. I wish I was that lucky.
[05:32] <h00k> quibbler, please see screenshot, I like their placement as is
[05:32] <h00k> quibbler, unexpanded
[05:32] <RegressLess1> the commands don't even work in my terminal
[05:32] <RegressLess1> and EasyCam2 errors out
[05:32] <gerob> miranda_psi: I cant switch workspaces for some reason what setting in Compiz affects this?
[05:32] <myke> how do i remove programs that came preinstalled with ubuntu .. for instance firefox.. i tried sudo apt-get remove firefox .. and it seemed to remove but its still there
[05:33] <RegressLess1> myke: synaptic
[05:33] <vduck> Anybody? How about: how do I apt-get the i386 SDL libs? What would they be called?
[05:33] <Enissay> Hi all, i've just installed Audacious audio player and i can't find how to activate the icon in the notification area?
[05:33] <PUNISHER> Hi everyone!
[05:33] <Brack10> in the guide for integrating samba with kerberos I'm supposed to check what version of MIT Kerberos libraries are installed on m y computer by entering "rpm -q krb5" which of course doesn't work.  so I tried sudo apt-cache showpkg krb5 and that also didn't work.  Anyone know how to check this on Ubuntu?
[05:33] <PUNISHER> How are you?
[05:33] <myke> thanks regress ill give it a shot
[05:33] <PC_Nerd> How can i move a logical partition out of an extended partition?  Im using gparted at the moment.
[05:34] <RegressLess1> System/Administration/Synaptic Package Manager
[05:34] <nickrud> RegressLess1, maybe http://linuxwebcam.org/ can point you in the right direction.
[05:34] <Brack10> RegressLess1: are you directing that at me?
[05:34] <bling4mm> Hello all, I have three questions. 1. How do I play rmvb and rm files (and all the other video files that VLC cannot not play) 2. What is the ubuntu quivalent of HJ Split? 3. How do I extract compressed files like rar and zip?
[05:35] <vduck> PC_nerd: I think you'd have to copy into an extended partition. I don't believe there's a way to change it. Gpart has tools for copying partitions
[05:35] <PC_Nerd> Ok thanks
[05:35] <PUNISHER> bling4mm: for rar archives I recommend install unrar package
[05:35] <nickrud> RegressLess1, and http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/tutorials/6463/3/ has some good links
[05:35] <PC_Nerd> Gpart as in the "Manage Partitions" under sts->admin ? or how do i get/use it?
[05:36] <h00k> bling4mm, file roller will also support splitting archives
[05:36] <myke> ok odd in synaptics firefox is uninstalled ,... i assume its asking me to mark it for installation ... but it still shows up under the internet tab .. and works
[05:36] <PC_Nerd> *System->Administration->Partition Editor ?
[05:36] <bluedragon> has any one ever used simple backup from the add/remove programs list
[05:37] <vduck> PC_Nerd: I'm working from memory, but there's a GUI tool: it shows the whole disk. You can highlight a partition, and there's probably a "copy" button somewhere
[05:37] <vduck> You've got to have an extended part to copy it too
[05:37] <PC_Nerd> yeah I found it - thanks :)
[05:37] <vduck> You can only have.. what 4 of those
[05:37] <bling4mm> Thanks
[05:37] <bling4mm> Does unrar extract zip files as well?
[05:38] <vduck> 4 extended, and in one of those you can have 4 logical... I think
[05:38] <PC_Nerd> im attempting to move it outside of the extended partition.  its currently inside sda3 and im trying to make it so that i only have sda1 (win) and sda2 (ntfs data)  sda2 is currently inside an extedned partition.
[05:38] <h00k> bling4mm, file roller supports zip files already
[05:38] <jdsbluedevl> hi, I'm having issues installing the update for Moblock.  As in, it doesn't want to upgrade.  Neither does it want to be removed
[05:38] <RegressLess1> myke: Sorry, I've not actually tried to remove Firefox. What is the reason you want to be rid of it?
[05:38] <jdsbluedevl> what can I do?
[05:39] <PUNISHER> bling4mm: for zip there is archives manager.
[05:39] <PUNISHER> in ubuntu
[05:39] <myke> i just want a clean system and i dont want it in my menus, opera seems to be a much better browser oddly on ubuntu
[05:40] <bling4mm> So file roller extracts both zip and rar, AND functions as HJ split?
[05:40] <vduck> PC_Nerd: what partitions do you have currently, and what type (logical/extend) are they?
[05:40] <jdsbluedevl> I put my error info for the moblock update on pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu.com/107603/
[05:41] <vduck> Anybody: running a 32 bit program on a 64 bit machine?
[05:41] <vduck> specifically, SDL?
[05:41] <vduck> help?
[05:41] <jdsbluedevl> it's very quiet in here, I put out my question and no one is biting either
[05:41] <PC_Nerd> vduck:  sda1 (ntfs windoze), sda3 (extended)-> sda5(ntfs data)     im currently in the proccess of removing partitions which is why sda2 and others are missing atm.   Im attempting to make:  sda1(windoze), sda2(ntfs data), so that ntfs3 can be extended with ubuntu in it.
[05:41] <vduck> Yah
[05:42] <RegressLess> wow Pidgin crashed
[05:42] <CostaRicanQuaker> Amarok won't play
[05:42] <Flannel> !doesntwork | CostaRicanQuaker
[05:42] <CostaRicanQuaker> can someone help me fix this, i  just clicked on an mp3 and it doesnt...do anyhting it gets stuck
[05:42] <h00k> I have two gnome panels, both are NOT set to expand (which is what I'd like), but where would I look to make the caps transparent? (yes, I have show 'hide buttons' unchecked) (see http://drop.io/n8qxpqj for screenshot)
[05:42] <PC_Nerd> vduck, I currently have a 30gb unallocated section outside of the extended partition, so im copying sda5 to there, so that I have 2 partitions outside of extended which is how I want it... waiting for it to copy  (all 29 GB of it ) - so itll be a while
[05:43] <RegressLess> myke: does Opera work across most OS's? I'm mainly looking for as little limitation as possible.
[05:43] <sp0tteh> "fdisk -l" shows /dev/sdc1, but there is no sdc1 showing up in "/dev" (only "sdc") .. any ideas?
[05:43] <jdsbluedevl> can anyone help with my issue with Moblock?  Again, my error info is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/107603/
[05:43] <CostaRicanQuaker> ok, i have a folder, within the folder, i have mp3 files, i click on one, then amarok pops up, and nothing happens no travel from the wee progress abr and no sound either
[05:43] <myke> opera works perfect on every os ive tried it on .. it really has grown as a browser..
[05:43] <CostaRicanQuaker> which is odd as youtube is playing and it has sound
[05:43] <RegressLess> cool
[05:44] <vduck> PC_Nerd: so you've got it to do what you want? The copying will take a while...
[05:44] <myke> yup .. biggest reason i switched is for some reason firefox wouldnt show all the tabs on my schools homework server, but opera will
[05:44] <Ketrel> Is there any tutorial for setting up *ubuntu so I can SSH into it? (Assume I know fully how to take care of everything on the router's side)
[05:44] <vduck> jds
[05:44] <rafase282> hello
[05:44] <CostaRicanQuaker> that being said i don't know what it might be
[05:44] <RegressLess> myke: I haven't had any problems with Firefox yet
[05:44] <rafase282> i need help with vnc
[05:44] <jdsbluedevl> vduck: yah
[05:45] <CostaRicanQuaker> but i know this to be true: it should work, and it doesn't
[05:45] <vduck> sorry, what's the "auto complete a chatter's handle" . .   how do you do that?
[05:45] <RegressLess> myke: Sorry I couldn't help
[05:45] <courpse__> Ketrel, sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[05:45] <jdsbluedevl> dunno
[05:45] <courpse__> then: ssh -l <login> <IP>
[05:45] <CostaRicanQuaker> ok i tried with vlc, there is travel on the progress bar but htere's no sound
[05:46] <vduck> jdsbluedevl, sorry dude. I don't even know what a moblock is.... what is it?
[05:46] <Ketrel> CoUrPsE|DeAd: what about starting and stopping it?
[05:46] <CostaRicanQuaker> everything seems to be fine on the sound control part of things
[05:46] <jdsbluedevl> moblock is the Linux equivalent of PeerGuardian
[05:46] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Ketrel, sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop
[05:46] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Ketrel, sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
[05:47] <CostaRicanQuaker> so i can't see why i can't play sound files on the media players
[05:47] <tien> Hello Ubuntu expert:  I want to use VPN client (cisco)...does Ubuntu bundled this pkg or I have to serach from internet ? Your help is great appreciated.
[05:47] <quibbler> vduck, letter or two + tab
[05:47] <bling> tien: install vpnc
[05:47] <bling> tien: and network-manager-vpnc
[05:48] <tien> bling, where should i install vpnc ? I am new Ubuntu user....
[05:48] <CostaRicanQuaker> clicked on a different soundfile
[05:48] <CostaRicanQuaker> same result
[05:48] <myke> regress its ok
[05:48] <Ketrel> CoUrPsE|DeAd: one more, how would I configure what port to listen on
[05:48] <vduck> quibbler: got it, it was offering multiple choices, I wasn't typing in enough letters. Pay attention, yah?
[05:48] <myke> this is my first time really using linux im a avid osx user
[05:48] <vduck> See you all later...
[05:48] <tien> bling, could you give a hint how to
[05:48] <quibbler> vduck, ;-)
[05:49] <bling> tien: that is the cisco vpn client.  you can install programs by going to Applications > Add/Remove (look at the bottom of the menu) OR System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager
[05:49] <rafase282> can someoen help me with vnc server?
[05:49] <PC_Nerd> vduck, well I dont know if its what I want as a final product - but copying out of the extended, will be a sure start.  Ill then have to check the data went across safely, then Ill remove the extended, merge the unallocated space, and install ubuntu ( I kind of screwed up my previous install )     so yeah Thanks!
[05:49] <Flannel> CostaRicanQuaker: Try a different format (not mp3)
[05:49] <tien> bling, thanks...I'll look for it.
[05:50] <CostaRicanQuaker> Flannel:  how do you mean? they should play mp3s
[05:50] <Flannel> CostaRicanQuaker: Right.  But try another format to see if its an issue with the player itself, or something having to do with codecs.
[05:50] <un_dave> could someone assist me setup a vpn in 8.10. it wont connect.
[05:50] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Ketrel, nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config and change port 22 to port <whatever>
[05:51] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Ketrel, Then restart the ssh server using: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[05:51] <CostaRicanQuaker> just clicked on a wma and it won't play either...
[05:51] <CostaRicanQuaker> audacious that is won't play it
[05:52] <EdgeX-[V]> !skype
[05:52] <Flannel> CostaRicanQuaker: Try something with a free format.  Try an ogg Vorbis (.oga)
[05:52] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, Does the progress bar move in the mp3 player?
[05:52] <CostaRicanQuaker> nope
[05:52] <CostaRicanQuaker> mp4?
[05:52] <un_dave> is there a log for the vpn connections?
[05:53] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, Try shutting down any applications that use sound, eg skype and stuff liek that.
[05:53] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Then playing ya song again.
[05:53] <CostaRicanQuaker> i have youtube going
[05:53]  * CostaRicanQuaker closes firefox
[05:53] <CostaRicanQuaker> ok well now the wma i clicked on before
[05:54] <CostaRicanQuaker> is playing
[05:54]  * CoUrPsE|DeAd nods.
[05:54] <CostaRicanQuaker> but that sucks
[05:54] <CostaRicanQuaker> because
[05:54] <CostaRicanQuaker> that means i can't have firefox
[05:54] <Flannel> !enter | CostaRicanQuaker
[05:54] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> yes, but now u can pause your music playre.
[05:54] <CostaRicanQuaker> and music playing
[05:54] <CostaRicanQuaker> at the same time
[05:54] <FloodBot2> CostaRicanQuaker: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:54] <tien> bling, I updated most of the applciations 1 hr ago, but could not find the vpnc....could you help
[05:54] <Flannel> CostaRicanQuaker: You can have firefox, you can't have flash (or maybe just youtube)
[05:54] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, as long as your music player is open first, you can pause your music player, use sound device or other things, and then unpause when ready.
[05:54] <Ketrel> CoUrPsE|DeAd: does it have to be nano, or will emacs do
[05:55] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Ketrel, Any text editer will be fine.
[05:55] <CostaRicanQuaker> can i have youtube playing a comedian
[05:55] <CostaRicanQuaker> standup
[05:55] <Ketrel> CoUrPsE|DeAd: thanks (I was worried it was like having to use visudo)
[05:55] <CostaRicanQuaker> and then have as background music something from the player?
[05:55] <vince> Does anyone have any idea on how to recover passwords on an UBUNTU install if you have forgotten them?  I have attempted to load a root console to reset the pass.  It says its successfull but when I restart the user still will not accept the password I set
[05:55] <tien> bling, are you still online ?
[05:55] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, open your player first, then gotto the website.
[05:55] <bling> tien: yes
[05:55] <Flannel> vince: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword  that's the correct method
[05:55] <bling> tien: patience, i type slow.  ;-)
[05:56] <vince> Flannel : Thanks! I'll check it out
[05:56] <tien> bling, how should I find vpnc
[05:56] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> The oss sound driver is surpose to be bette for multiple devices using sound at same time.
[05:56] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, the player got stuck
[05:56] <CostaRicanQuaker> right after i opened firefox
[05:56] <bling> tien: one sec, im looking for the repository to enable...brb
[05:56] <kbrosnan> CostaRicanQuaker: it is a conflict between pulse audio and adobe's flash player see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio
[05:57] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, What driver is it set to in your sound prefences?
[05:57] <tien> bling....take your time....awaiting
[05:57] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> using oss.
[05:57] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, how do i check that?
[05:57] <vince> Flannel : I have already attempted both of those methods, Using the recovery method shows a "Password Change Successfull Message" but whenever I login and try to SUDO anything it still shows invalid Password.  When I attempt to use the second method the system simply reboots and does not drop to Root Access
[05:57] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> System/Prefemnces/sound.
[05:58] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> EG: my settings, but may not be good for you, all except default mixter trascks ar set to 'OSS - open Sound System'
[05:58] <tv7497> good morning guys guys whats the name of the program that make ubuntu desktop similar to mac (the downpart)
[05:58] <bling> tien: okay, so go to System > Administration > Software Sources, on the tab on the left, there should be check boxes for repositories.  make sure the check box for "Universe" is ticked.  Then hit the reload button (next to close).
[05:58] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, ALSA?
[05:59] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Set them to OSS.
[05:59] <Flannel> vince: Oh, so you can login fine, but you can't use sudo?  Are you logged in right now?
[05:59] <CostaRicanQuaker> intel ich5?
[05:59] <_Vi_> tv7497: the dock thingy?
[05:59] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> OSS ?
[05:59] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, who me?
[05:59] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> yes. Just set them all to oss,
[05:59] <CostaRicanQuaker> how?
[05:59] <CostaRicanQuaker> i don't see an oss option
[05:59] <tv7497> _Vi_: is it called dock i have no idea the bottom flashy part like in many of those screen shots

[06:00] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, There is no option under Sound Playback for OSS - IOpen Sound System
[06:00] <Flannel> vince: Alright, try hitting ctrl-alt-f2 (you'll get a console) and try to log in there.  (ctrl-alt-f7 will get you back to the GUI)
[06:00] <_Vi_> tv7497: theres another called Cairo
[06:00] <bling> tien: no prob
[06:00] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, so what do i do now? i changed all of those to oss

[06:01] <_Vi_> tv7497: avant is in the repos
[06:01] <phpstar> I m using ubuntu 8.10 and everything is fine except there is no sound in Flash video  ??
[06:01] <phpstar> anyone know y
[06:01] <vince> Flannel : Ok once I am there what do I do?  I have no issues getting to concole the problum is when I change the password it SAYS its successfull but does not appear to work.  IE I cannot get SUDO access in order to run Synaptic or other programs requiring the permissions
[06:02] <mood> you sure it's a flash issue?
[06:02] <phpstar> yes mood
[06:02] <phpstar> coz VLC is fine
[06:02] <phpstar> sound is fine
[06:02] <mood> what browser are you using?
[06:02] <Flannel> vince: Can you log in to the terminal?
[06:02] <phpstar> Mozilla Firefox
[06:02] <vince> using ROOT yes.  I have no tried it from console under my User Name
[06:02] <mood> and you downloaded the latest flash/shockwave plugins?
[06:02] <phpstar> yes
[06:02] <phpstar> Flash 10
[06:02] <tv7497> phpstar: as far as i know they have fixed that thing when other program is running which uses your alsa flash sound didnt work for me in hardy its fine with ibex
[06:03] <Flannel> vince: I don't care about root.  I want you to hit ctrl-alt-f2 and see if you can log in to your user there.
[06:03] <phpstar> hmmmm it was fine for me in Hardy but not in ebix
[06:03] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, now youtube has no sound
[06:03] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, Does the music player?
[06:03] <vince> Flannel : Yes I can
[06:04] <CostaRicanQuaker> yes since i opened it first as yout old me
[06:04] <CostaRicanQuaker> but when i opened firefox afterwards
[06:04] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, Pause your music player, and play something on utube.
[06:04] <CostaRicanQuaker> youtube had no sound
[06:04] <tien> bling, I do see the "Software restricted by copyright or legal issues (mutilverse) is checked, but not seeing "repositories"....
[06:04] <mood> phpstar: can you try a standalone flash player?
[06:04] <Flannel> vince: alright, then the problem has nothing to do with your password.  Type "groups" (you can go back to your GUI now), what is the output of that command?
[06:04] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, doesn't work, i even switched video
[06:04] <phpstar> how mood ??
[06:05] <bling> tien: you want to make sure that the "universe" is checked, is it?
[06:05] <vince> Flannel :
[06:05] <vince> err lets try that agian
[06:05] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> okies, thats weird, Set back to also then, and live with it.
[06:05] <mood> phpstar: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FlashPlayerStandalone
[06:05] <CostaRicanQuaker> what?
[06:05] <phpstar> i tried downloading from Flash site but its onli available in x86 and not in 64 bit
[06:05] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> lol.
[06:05] <vince> Flannel : vince adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev fuse lpadmin admin
[06:05] <CostaRicanQuaker> so you can't have both youtube and the music player at once?
[06:05] <CostaRicanQuaker> wait, what about the browser?
[06:05] <kbrosnan> CostaRicanQuaker: it is a conflict between pulse audio and adobe's flash player see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio
[06:06] <CostaRicanQuaker> now the music player got stuck when i tried to unpause it
[06:06] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> I've never tried. let me look now.
[06:06] <CostaRicanQuaker> kbrosnan, so what do i do about it?
[06:06] <tien> bling, I am in the main menu of "software SOurces" and under "Third Party Software...." Am I in the right path ?
[06:06] <kbrosnan> CostaRicanQuaker: read the page for suggestions
[06:06] <tv7497> phpstar: no idea mate maybe this would be helpful have a look http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=944742
[06:06] <Flannel> vince: Interesting.  You are a part of admin.  Ok, I'm unfortunately going to need you to go back to the root console.  Once there, do this: cp /etc/sudoers /home/username/Desktop/sudoers && chmod a+r /home/username/Desktop/sudoers
[06:06] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> kbrosnan, He's now using OSS.
[06:06] <phpstar> thx tv
[06:07] <Flannel> vince: (where username is your username, obviously).  We need to take a look at your sudoers file to see whats going on.
[06:07] <tv7497> phpstar: np
[06:07] <vince> Flannel : Ok One moment please.
[06:07] <CostaRicanQuaker> kbrosnan, under known issues?
[06:07] <kbrosnan> yese
[06:08] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, Youtube is working fine for me, im using OSS for everything except for default mixer. I am listening to music at the same time.
[06:08] <bling> tien: you dont want third party software.  you want the tab to the left.  i would tell you what its called, but im on windows, and i cant remember it.  its something like "main repositories" or something
[06:08] <CostaRicanQuaker> If you experience problems with audio synchronization after installation, you may need to edit the file /etc/firefox/firefoxrc
[06:08] <tv7497> Flannel: hello sir was finally able to run enlightenment but i prefer gnome rather than that
[06:08] <CostaRicanQuaker> ^where is that?
[06:08] <kbrosnan> CoUrPsE|DeAd: well what costa is experiencing is textbook for the the issue described in that pulse audio page
[06:08] <mood> any vsftpd users know how to check for version#?
[06:09] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> kbrosnan, Okies, Does OSS use pulseaudio ?
[06:09] <CostaRicanQuaker> In previous Ubuntu releases, Flash support can be enabled in two ways: by downloading and installing a .deb from logicalnetworking.net or by building a patched version of the Flash plugin from source. (See detailed instructions below.If you experience problems with audio synchronization after installation, you may need to edit the file /etc/firefox/firefoxrc. The line referencing FIREFOX_DSP should read FIREFOX_DSP="padsp"
[06:09] <CostaRicanQuaker> ^how do i do that?
[06:09] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Yes it does, nm.
[06:09] <phpstar> mood just edit vsftpd.conf file
[06:10] <tien> bling, on the tab left, there is "Ubuntu Software" is that right ? Then I don't see repositories at all
[06:10] <myke> ughh kde or gnome i cant decide
[06:10] <mood> eh? edit it? i just want to check version#
[06:10] <kbrosnan> CoUrPsE|DeAd: thought pulse audio was sort of an uber wrapper that tryed to put all the different sound devices under its control
[06:10] <tien> bling, or may be Ubuntu 8.10 is different than your version ?
[06:10] <CostaRicanQuaker> ^kbrosnan,  how do i do that?
[06:11] <phpstar> i think its conf file also have version info
[06:11] <mood> grep -i version doesn't turn up anything
[06:11] <CostaRicanQuaker> do i sudo apt-get install libflashsupport first?
[06:11] <bling> tien: yes, thats the right tab.  its possible that it got moved around between version, though unlikely.  let me see if i can get a guide to it.  i assume you are on intrepid ibex?
[06:11] <kbrosnan> CostaRicanQuaker: i don't know, i don't experience the issue
[06:11] <_Vi_> myke: you can have both (just not running at the same time of course) 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop'
[06:11] <vince> Flannel : Ok I have the file now do you want the output for the uncommented lines?
[06:12] <mood> unless of course "vsftpd.conf.5" means verison 5. duh. thx phpstar
[06:12] <Flannel> vince: Just patse the entire thing
[06:12] <Flannel> !paste | vince
[06:12] <CostaRicanQuaker> i mean, you're pointing out that that page has suggestions for it kbrosnan so i'm assuming that there's something to be done in it
[06:12] <CostaRicanQuaker> but i don't know how to do what htat page says
[06:12] <myke> vi .. yeah but why have both .. im trying to have a clean efficient . good looking system .. gnome is kind of blah
[06:12] <_Vi_> well then :P
[06:12] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> kbrosnan, Yeah, seems so.
[06:12] <_Vi_> myke: I like IceWM have you tried it?
[06:13] <mood> oh wait,  vsftpd is only at 2.0.7...
[06:13] <vince> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu.com/107608/
[06:13] <Frijolie> ok, Ive came across an annoying problem with my window sizes
[06:13] <myke> icewm is nice but way to simple.. and boxy lol
[06:13] <Frijolie> often times I'll get a window which is too large to fit on my desktop
[06:13] <_Vi_> well there's themes ya know
[06:13] <tien> bling, then here are the box list under it: 1) Canonical-supported....2) Community maintained open source (univers)...3) Proprietary drivers .....4) Software restrcited ....(multiverse).....
[06:13] <phpstar> mood dude u can open sysnaptic manager and search for vsftpd :)
[06:13] <CostaRicanQuaker> !pastebin
[06:13] <Frijolie> so the top of the window will "bump" up against my top taskbar but will then extend below the bottom taskbar
[06:14] <mood> phpstar: yeah, vsftpd is just so streamlined that i don't think it even self documents what version it is :-p
[06:14] <_Vi_> myke: just like fluxbox has like 20 themes (built in) so does Icewm :)
[06:14] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, Check /etc/X11/xorg.conf for virtual resolutions on your screen device.
[06:14] <Frijolie> and therefore I cannot resize the window by draggin on the bottom right corner
[06:14] <myke> is there a dock for icewm?
[06:14] <Flannel> vince: Alright, everything looks... in order there.  Ok, um, open up a terminal, and do `sudo echo "foo"`  enter your password, does it give you an error?
[06:14] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, kbrosnan : here http://paste.ubuntu.com/107609/
[06:14] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, Is it only just out of reach ?
[06:14] <phpstar> yo mood
[06:14] <Frijolie> I've heard of some workarounds CTRL + Left-clicking, and CTRL + Middle mouse
[06:14] <phpstar> did u searched in synaptic manager ??
[06:15] <phpstar> 2.0.7 is latest version
[06:15] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, Whats the problem?
[06:15] <_Vi_> myke: that I'm not sure of. I bet they do have something like it as a seperate download
[06:15] <Frijolie> CoUrPsE|DeAd: man that's hard to type...yes it's just beyond reach
[06:15] <mood> phpstar: yes, i know 2.0.7 is latest and greatest. the problem is i don't know what version i have installed and running
[06:15] <Frijolie> I dont know if it's a Compiz, VirtualBox, Ubuntu, or Xorg problem
[06:15] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, Type Co<Press Tab>.
[06:15] <bling> tien: make sure the "community maintained open source (universe)" is ticked and hit reload.  or, if you prefer the shotgun approach ( :-) ), make sure all 5 are ticked and hit reload.
[06:15] <vince> Flannel : Sorry, Please Try agian
[06:15] <CostaRicanQuaker> sorry about that
[06:15] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, How far out of reach is it?
[06:15] <phpstar> then FTP with filezilla
[06:15] <Frijolie> CoUrPse: huh?
[06:15] <phpstar> and u will know ;)
[06:15] <mood> phpstar: i don't think you can :-(
[06:16] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, what do i do?
[06:16] <CostaRicanQuaker> i'm sorry, i accidentally closed the window
[06:16] <CostaRicanQuaker> i'm trying to follow the directions on that page
[06:16] <Frijolie> CoUrPse: well it's usually about an inch below my bottom taskbar
[06:16] <CostaRicanQuaker> what do i have to do though...i typed that into the konsole
[06:16] <myke> wow .. that downloaded quick .. i just installed and downloaded icewm in about 20 seconds lol
[06:16] <CostaRicanQuaker> now what am i suposed to do
[06:16] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, If you move your taskbar to the side, then move it from the bottom?
[06:16] <Flannel> vince: Erm.   And you're sure youre typing the same password that you used to log in to the console a few minutes ago?
[06:16] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, its installed.
[06:16] <ganesh> ﻿where can i get pcap.h in ubuntu
[06:17] <Frijolie> CoUrpse: nope, tried that it's below enough where I can't get it by doing that
[06:17] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, You dont do anything else with that bit.
[06:17] <vince> Flannel : Positive
[06:17] <Frijolie> CoUrPse: sometimes the CTRL + Left-clicking works
[06:17] <Flannel> vince: Alright... for yucks... what does "groups username" (where username is you) return?
[06:17] <Frijolie> CoUrPse: and sometimes the CTRL + Middle Mouse works
[06:17] <jdsbluedevl> can someone help me with Moblock?  It won't upgrade, and when I try to remove it, it won't uninstall.  My error message is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/107603/
[06:17] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, so next is changing the /etc/firefox/firefoxrc. and changing the line to FIREFOX_DSP="padsp" how do i do that?
[06:17] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, Okies, Look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf for virtual resolutions for your screen device.
[06:18] <Frijolie> CoUrPse: but neither are working now and it's extremely annoying!
[06:18] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, nano /etc/firefox/firefoxrc.
[06:18] <kbrosnan> sudo nano
[06:18] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, then look for the line and change it.
[06:18] <vince> Flannel : vince@Pong:~$ groups vince
[06:18] <vince> vince adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev fuse lpadmin admin
[06:18] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> yes sorry, sudo nano.
[06:18] <Hilikus> how do i install packages deemed "backports" ??
[06:19] <Hilikus> im looking at http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy-backports/bacula
[06:19] <tien> bling, the "community maintained open source universe" was checked initially. Therefore I don't see the "reload" button ....Am i following your instruction correctly....Then where should I finf vpnc and launch it ?
[06:19] <_Vi_> !backports
[06:19] <Hilikus> and i don't have that version, i have the version in http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/bacula
[06:19] <zetheroo> hey, I got an Ipod that says its a read-only filesystem  ... how do i get into it and full rights to it?
[06:19] <Frijolie> CoUrPsE: whoa! I have the most simple xorg file I've ever seen
[06:19] <CostaRicanQuaker> er...is there a different notepad or somethign i can open that file with CoUrPsE|DeAd ?
[06:19] <CostaRicanQuaker> it seemed odd so i just closed it i didn't want mess anyhting up
[06:19] <gonewestcoast> zetheroo: Mount read write.  But I'm reasonably sure you can't on modern iPods.
[06:19] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> ?
[06:19] <Frijolie> CoUrPsE: only simple entries and only about three of them, but nothing about virtual resolutions..or any resolutions at all
[06:20] <bling> tien: did you manage to install it?
[06:20] <binMonkey> how do i add a public key so i can download a program?  i've add the ppa info to my sources.list already.
[06:20] <jdsbluedevl> can someone help me with Moblock?  My error message is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/107603/
[06:20] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, sudo gedit /etc/firefox/firefoxrc.
[06:20] <tien> bling, okey, when I closed it, then the reload button appears, then I clicked on it.
[06:20] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, Humm... Im afraid im not sure then.
[06:20] <tien> bing, how do i manage to install it ?
[06:20] <Frijolie> CoUrPsE: http://paste.ubuntu.com/107612/
[06:21] <CostaRicanQuaker> um.... CoUrPsE|DeAd it opens an empty file
[06:21] <zetheroo> anyone?
[06:21] <CostaRicanQuaker> should i take that final . out of the name? sudo gedit /etc/firefox/firefoxrc
[06:21] <_Vi_> !tab | Frijolie
[06:21] <jdsbluedevl> can someone please help me with Moblock?!!!!
[06:21] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, Okies, i must of typod fiule, do sudo gedit /path/to/file
[06:21] <bling> tien: it will appear in the network-manager applet.  so click the applet (should be in the upper right and list networks to connect to), go to "VPN Connections" and "Configure VPN"
[06:21] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, sudo gedit /etc/firefox/firefoxrc
[06:21] <Flannel> vince: well, I don't know what to tell you.  Everything looks normal.
[06:21] <zetheroo> ipod with read-only filesystem here ... need to delete files ...
[06:21] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> could be it.
[06:21] <Frijolie> _Vi_: well thanks for the tip(s), I was underware of the tab completion for IRC
[06:22] <_Vi_> :)
[06:22] <werdnum> You were underwear of it or unaware? :P
[06:22] <Frijolie> _Vi_, and now I understand what he was trying to say "type Co<TAB>"
[06:22] <vince> Flannel : alrighty,  I think at this point im just gona have to burn another CD.  I have no idea what else to do either
[06:22] <Frijolie> *lightbulb*
[06:22] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, still empty? what am i doing wrong
[06:22] <tien> bling, is it under "system" or application ?
[06:22] <CostaRicanQuaker> it looks like the name on that page
[06:23] <_Vi_> that factoid doesnt help, but Frijolie basically just type Cou<TAB> yep yep you got it :)
[06:23] <jdsbluedevl> thanks guys, you were much help.  VOMIT!!!!!!!
[06:23] <vince> I can login to the accounts but whenever I try to access anything with SUDO rights it acts like the password is wrong
[06:23] <ganesh> how to install pcap.h in ubuntu?
[06:23] <_Vi_> I tried to update the !Tab factoid but the ops wont/didnt approve it yet :(((
[06:24] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, Is the how-to you got for 8.10 ?
[06:24] <bling> tien: neither.  in the toolbar (called a panel) that has Applications, Places, and System, on the right side of the _panel_ there are a few buttons/icons/applets.  thats what you want.
[06:24] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, i pasted waht you told me...but i still can't seem to get anything btu the empty file
[06:24] <phpstar> heheheehehhe
[06:24] <mood> there just ain't pleasing anyone, even with free, altruistic help :-p
[06:24] <Frijolie> CoUrPsE|DeAd, any idea what could be causing it other than Xorg? Compiz, VirtualBox..?
[06:24] <Rudd-O> http://rudd-o.com/new-projects/linuxvideoconverter
[06:24] <phpstar> mood did u find version number yet ??
[06:25] <homeskillet> how do you install postgres 8.3 in ubuntu? is it just apt-get install postgres-8.3 or do i need other things?
[06:25] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio
[06:25] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, Sorry, i dont, :( I'm having a google.
[06:25] <_Vi_> dont forget 'sudo' homeskillet
[06:25] <mood> nope. i figure it's just rule of thumb to use synaptic to update to the latest and greatest. god forbid i have to downgrade
[06:25] <Hilikus> thanks
[06:25] <phpstar> if u open synaptic maanger and click on installed menu then it will show
[06:25] <Frijolie> sudo apt-get purge Gee Dubya; sudo apt-get install Barack Obama
[06:26] <Frijolie> is this an Easter Egg?
[06:26] <phpstar> it is showing mine vsftpd version as well ;)
[06:26] <mood> phpstar: schitte.... why didn't i think of that?
[06:26] <phpstar> hehehehe
[06:26] <Flannel> Frijolie: No.  Please take offtopic comments elsewhere.

[06:27] <liquid> nething special i should keep in mind when upgrading ubuntu 8.04 kernel?
[06:27] <mood> phpstar: it works, it shows the installed version. kind of clunky for *nix though...
[06:27] <CostaRicanQuaker> How do i check what version of ubuntu i'm on?
[06:28] <_Vi_> liquid: do you use Vbox ? if you do you'll likely have to recompile it after that
[06:28] <phpstar> kool
[06:28] <liquid> yes i do...good info
[06:29] <_Vi_> CostaRicanQuaker: lsb_release -a
[06:29] <bling> tien: how are you doing?  did you find it?
[06:30] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, Dual heads or single?
[06:30] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, Description:    Ubuntu 8.04.1
[06:30] <tien> bling, I found VPN under "preferences"/Network Connections" but the "VPN" tab is grayed out of the "add, edit,etc..button"
[06:30] <_Vi_> 8.04 FTW! :)
[06:30] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> lol.
[06:31] <Frijolie> CoUrPsE|DeAd, for what?
[06:31] <Steelflint> I'm trying to use Cron to execute Audacious on a timer, I have it set up in Gnome schedule, and when I "Execute" the command in the scheduler, it works, but when the actually time comes for Cron to run the command itself, it does not work.
[06:31] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, do: sudo updatedb
[06:31] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, do: sudo locate firefoxrc.
[06:31] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, Your computer, has it got 2 monitors or one?
[06:31] <bling> tien: i ran into that too, and im not sure why.  this is the place to ask that question though.
[06:31] <Ketrel> CoUrPsE|DeAd: thanks, I got SSH up and running
[06:31] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Ketrel, np.
[06:32] <Ketrel> CoUrPsE|DeAd: of course the purpose was so I could use Finch while in class without anyone suspecting an IM program XD
[06:32] <Frijolie> CoUrPsE|DeAd, sorry, I shoulda known what you meant. Only one monitor, I'm on a lappy
[06:32] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, okies.

[06:33] <bling> tien: i dont know.  ive run into the same problem, but i havent had the time to figure out why yet.
[06:34] <Ketrel> (Pidgin being the multi protocall IM program)
[06:34] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Ketrel, Ahh k, well have to install it, pidgin minest well be tui anyway.
[06:34] <bling> tien: if there is, i dont know it.  i would recommend the applet plugin though, its actually quite good.
[06:34] <CostaRicanQuaker> sebastian@sebastian:~$ sudo locate firefoxrc. sebastian@sebastian:~
[06:34] <tien> bling, you ran into the problem before....so you could not run vpnc on your ubuntu, right...
[06:34] <CostaRicanQuaker> ^ CoUrPsE|DeAd
[06:35] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CostaRicanQuaker, okies, then ya not going to be able to edit what dnt exist,
[06:35] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, so what do i do next?
[06:35] <CostaRicanQuaker> to play both at once
[06:35] <McDoogle> does anybody have a Belkin N1 router?
[06:35] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> You give me time, I am not here 100% of the time to reply back to just you.
[06:35] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> :)
[06:36] <McDoogle> buffoon
[06:36] <CostaRicanQuaker> CoUrPsE|DeAd, me?
[06:36] <Frijolie> CostaRicanQuaker, that the new Rick Roll?
[06:36] <CostaRicanQuaker> rick roll?
[06:36] <bling> tien: yes, but i have used it on a different machine where it worked absolutely flawlessly.  to me at least, it would be more worth my while to find a way to get it working through the GUI, but you may wish to do otherwise.
[06:37] <Bogaurd> i've got tightvncserver installed, as well as gnome-core and gdm. how can I have tightvnc open to a GDM login prompt? I dont want to attach to an existing screen, i want to spawn a new one..
[06:37] <bling> tien: since im interested in the answer to the GUI question, ill ask it.
[06:38] <Frijolie> CostaRicanQuaker, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yu_moia-oVI
[06:38] <tien> bling, thanks for your time....I might find the way to download vpnc from outside of Ubuntu, then confiugre it from there....
[06:38] <biouser> do you think that we could roll-back the ekiga version in the repos... wouldn't want to get too bleeding edge there
[06:38] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Bogaurd, Well thats not possible,
[06:38] <CostaRicanQuaker> frijolia that video is not vailable in my country
[06:38] <Bogaurd> CoUrPsE|DeAd - why not?
[06:38] <bling> anybody know whats wrong if all of the buttons in the VPN connections manager (with vpnc installed) are grayed out?
[06:38] <biouser> anyone have ekiga + pulse audio working and liking the behavior?
[06:38] <CostaRicanQuaker> Frijolie *
[06:38] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> coz VNC veiws what the computer is viewing at the time.
[06:38] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> its not a seperate login.
[06:39] <Frijolie> CostaRicanQuaker, hehe
[06:39] <Frijolie> biouser, I dumped PA a while back
[06:39] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> VNC simplys passes information back and forth with whats happening.
[06:39] <biouser> Frijolie pulse audio will be breaking new ground, now just broken
[06:39] <Grayvon> In windows you can put .log at the beginning of a notepad or word document and then anytime you open it the date and time are automatically written before you cursor.  Is there a similar command in ubuntu?
[06:39] <Frijolie> biouser, some day we'll get skype
[06:39] <tien> so how do we figure out to ungray the VPN tab ?
[06:39] <Bogaurd> CoUrPsE|DeAd: you can setup VNC to do whatever you like, it's only a protocol. I'm not talking about installing the default package and using the default settings.
[06:40] <Frijolie> biouser, and I don't see a shovel in their hand(s) anytime soon
[06:40]  * regeya isn't liking pulseaudio, period, biouser
[06:40] <Bogaurd> CoUrPsE|DeAd: I already have it spawning new sessions, but with the X session manager, not GDM
[06:40] <biouser> Frijolie I would much prefer to go open-source of course
[06:40] <regeya> then again, I don't have any hardware that DOESN'T have Intel HDA
[06:40] <josephnexus> hello everyone
[06:40] <josephnexus> i'm running ubuntu 8.10 and installed the lamp packages...
[06:40] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> I thought you were simply running vnc server, then connecting and expected mircles.
[06:41] <yme> Hi is anybody there?
[06:41] <regeya> turn the switch and the light will turn on, josephnexus
[06:41] <biouser> 8.10 is way better for pulse audio than 8.04 at least
[06:41] <regeya> if not, replace the bulb!
[06:41] <Frijolie> biouser, yeah *prefer*
[06:41] <regeya> goodnight
[06:41] <josephnexus> i can connect to my db server using phpmyadmin.. and I can create dbs and so on, but I can't connect to the db using any other method
[06:41] <yme> I've got a problems with my mounted drivers
[06:41] <josephnexus> for example... mysql from the terminal doesn't le tme connect... and my php app can't connect... i've made a new user in phpmyadmin and ensure it has the permissions that I need... anyone have any ideas?
[06:42] <jrgp> any way to get nvidia drivers on jaunty yet?
[06:42] <biouser> josephnexus sounds like #php perhaps, you should look into a python framewerk :P
[06:42] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-89455.html
[06:42] <bling> tien: good luck
[06:42] <biouser> josephnexus you could stop firestarter if it is running and sudo iptables -F and that might work
[06:42] <josephnexus> it's not a php issue though, since I can't connect anywhere... i've set this up before on 8.04 and such, but this was my first time with 8.10... and the first time i've seen this issue
[06:42] <josephnexus> i'm not running firestarter
[06:42] <josephnexus> but I'll ensure that iptables isn't doing anything
[06:43] <yme> I specified two different entries for two different drivers in /etc/fstab, however Ubuntu exchange the entries
[06:43] <biouser> josephnexus what does iptables -L return?
[06:43] <Shital> hi all

[06:43] <josephnexus> sry... my bad floodbot2... my apologies
[06:43] <biouser> right josephnexus then I don't know, sounds like users and permissions maybe?
[06:43] <Shital> in Ubuntu-8.10 how can i add an user to sudoers file?
[06:43] <jrgp> any way to get nvidia drivers on jaunty yet?
[06:44] <bling> tien: if you want, i can email you a solution once i find one.  it will make configuring vpnc easier in the future.
[06:44] <biouser> does jaunty have the new ekiga in the repos?
[06:44] <yme> can anyone help with mount?
[06:44] <biouser> yme perhaps

[06:45] <liquid> has neone had random wireless disconnects with ubuntu 8.10?  It's the reason I do not use it.
[06:45] <yme> biouser, however randomly Ubuntu will exchange the destinations
[06:46] <tien> bling, yes.....please....BTW: I just find the way of running vpnc manual (cmd)...I am figuring it out....But I hope you  plscould send me the email. would you

[06:47] <yme> biouser, yes.
[06:47] <scunizi> Whats a good gui front end for managing mysql?
[06:47] <biouser> scunizi the one that synaptic tell you about when you search MySQL in synaptic
[06:47] <Dunaz> somebody can help...i need to know, how to install my ATI Xpress 200 m
[06:48] <bebe> oooooooooiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[06:48] <yme> scunizi, look for MySQL Administration tools on MySQL website
[06:48] <adamzyg> Mysql query Browser
[06:48] <Frijolie> CoUrPsE|DeAd, what qualifies as the <super> key? the "window's key"?
[06:48] <Dunaz> eae bebe
[06:48] <scunizi> biouser, kmysqladmin.. but I thought there was another that was more recommended....
[06:48] <biouser> mysql-admin package
[06:49] <tien> kinja sheep, what do you mean to spam my email
[06:49] <Dunaz> ai bebe você é da onde?
[06:49] <biouser> scunizi with mysql-query-browser I think or some helper program so that you can actually edit the tables
[06:49] <syockit> Is phpmyadmin considered a gui? But to me it's a gui
[06:49] <Flannel> !br | Dunaz
[06:49] <biouser> yme you can just mount without fstab, right?

[06:51] <tv7497> _Vi_: sir i just avant worked cool here is the screen shot http://122.167.88.158  sir how do i make this little tool bar go away in back of the avant toolbar
[06:51] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, okies, /me looks again.
[06:51] <Frijolie> CoUrPsE|DeAd, I'm thinking it's a VirtualBox issue
[06:51] <biouser> yme well I mount my nfs with $sudo mount 192.168.2.2:/from/where /to/this/mount/location
[06:51] <biouser> I think that I had to have portmap and a few other things from
[06:51] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, I've never used VB before.
[06:52] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Frijolie, so i dont think i can help ya.
[06:52] <biouser> one of the top hits for NFS ubuntu that I followed
[06:52] <Frijolie> CoUrPsE|DeAd, those keyboard shortcuts on that forum posting and others on Google will resize any window but my guest OS
[06:52] <yme> biouser, yes, but then I'd have to do it everytime I reboot right?
[06:52] <biouser> yme that is correct...
[06:52] <Shital> adamzyg: in that file where i have to include user name to access all the privilages??
[06:52] <Frijolie> CoUrPsE|DeAd, and the boneheads in the VBox IRC chat room aren't responding
[06:52] <bling> tv7497: you should be able to right click on the panel and click "delete this panel"
[06:52] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> lol.
[06:52] <Frijolie> CoUrPsE|DeAd, thanks for trying
[06:52] <yme> biouser, I'd like this to be done automatically
[06:52] <biouser> yme is there some hidden file in like the gnome settings or something that can interfere with /etc/fstab/ ? I don't know
[06:52] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> np.
[06:53] <biouser> yme so it always mounts it just changes location?
[06:53] <tv7497> bling: thank you sir :)
[06:53] <yme> biouser, the worse thing is that it doesn't happen always. For instance I declared two entries: /dev/sdc1 <mount point a> and /dev/sdd1 <mount point b>
[06:54] <yme> biouser, sometimes <mount point a> points to /dev/sdd1 sometimes to /dev/sdc1 and viceversa
[06:54] <adamzyg> Shital, not always
[06:54] <lyte> what's the volume control called in gnome?
[06:55] <tv7497> bling: how can i make avant start up as soon as the desktop starts is there any option ?
[06:55] <biouser> yme these are usb drives?
[06:55] <yme> biouser, yes
[06:56] <Shital> adamzyg: i just want to include my user name to sudoers file, but which line?
[06:56] <bling> tv7497: yes, i think theres an option in avant to do it, but i cant remember where.  if there isnt an option, you can add it to your session by going to System > Preferences > Sessions and clicking add and then asking in this channel what to add (I dont know that either).
[06:56] <adamzyg> Shital, satisfy yours needs
[06:56] <biouser> yme so maybe you are changing the order in which they are plugged in, to which usb inlet, I don't know I am out of my league here, how does ubuntu know which is to be sdc1 and which is to be sdc2?
[06:56] <Ahmuck_Jr> !ubuntu-ce
[06:56] <Ahmuck_Jr> does anyone know if ubuntu-ce has a irc channel?
[06:57] <jrgp> guys
[06:57] <jrgp> is there a jaunty nvidia driver or not?
[06:57] <yme> biouser, the drives have been assigned a name during partitioning. So /dev/sdc1 always refers to one disk, /dev/sdd1 always refers to another disk. The difference is in the mount points
[06:57] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Ubuntu will search the usb root hubs and then put them in /dev as they go.
[06:58] <adamzyg> root    ALL=(ALL)   ALL
[06:58] <adamzyg> Shital ALL=(ALL)   ALL
[06:58] <yme> biouser, it's like somehow Ubuntu looses the mount points for the drives
[06:58] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> yme, The /dev/sd* change.
[06:58] <biouser> yme the entries in fsatb actually change??
[06:59] <yme> CoUrPsE|DeAd, what do you mean?
[06:59] <adamzyg> Shital, this is the easiest way.
[06:59] <Shital> which one?
[06:59] <adamzyg> Shital, after the line of "root ALL=(ALL) ALL"
[06:59] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> yme, if one is plugged in before the other, or is first in line at the usb root devices, then it will be made sdc, if the other drive is first in line, it well be sdc otherwise sdd.
[07:00] <Shital> adamzyg: k after this line, i should add "user_name ALL=(ALL) ALL"???
[07:01] <adamzyg> yeah ^_^
[07:01] <Flannel> Shital: Why do you want to add your user to the sudoers file?
[07:01] <yme> CoUrPsE|DeAd, are you saying that also the internal name can change? I thought I assigned the names during partitioning. So how am I going to solve this problem?
[07:01] <tv7497> bling: thanks found this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=555781 will restart and let you know
[07:01] <Flannel> Shital: You just need to grant access to the user?
[07:02] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> yme, Keep them in the same place, or plug em back in the same place every time you use em.
[07:02] <yme> CoUrPsE|DeAd, the devices are always plugged to the box
[07:02] <Shital> i want the user also to have all the access rights as root
[07:02] <afroken> hi, is there a way to install nvidia drivers from terminal?
[07:02] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> yme, the mount point isnt changing at all, its doing what you told it to do in fstab, its just the order of devices have changed.
[07:02] <yme> CoUrPsE|DeAd, I never change the location
[07:02] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Hummm.
[07:03] <ganesh> how to log in as root in ubuntu?
[07:03] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> ganesh, su root
[07:03] <Flannel> ganesh: Use sudo instead.
[07:03] <Flannel> Shital: Just add the user to the "admin" group
[07:03] <biouser> how unrecommended would it be to update-manager -d to jaunty right now?
[07:03] <ganesh> CoUrPsE|DeAd: i tried but it is not accepting the password
[07:03]  * CoUrPsE|DeAd nods with Flannel, There should be no need to login as root. sudo is fine.
[07:03] <Flannel> Shital: You don't need to edit sudoers at all.
[07:04] <Flannel> biouser: Jaunty is alpha software.
[07:04] <yme> CoUrPsE|DeAd, do you think it would be worthwhile trying to exchange the entries and see what happens?
[07:04] <Shital> Flannel: how to do that?
[07:04] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> ganesh, root passwd is different to your normal password, you entered your root password when installed ubuntu.
[07:04] <Flannel> Shital: sudo adduser username admin
[07:04] <ganesh> Flannel:i tried using sudo with cp command it showes some error
[07:04] <TTilus> if i conf  sys -> settings -> proxy, will updates obey it too?
[07:04] <werdnum> child what?
[07:04] <Flannel> CoUrPsE|DeAd, ganesh: No, the root password doesn't exist.
[07:04] <Flannel> ganesh: what error?
[07:05] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Flannel?
[07:05] <Flannel> CoUrPsE|DeAd: You don't set a root password during the install.
[07:05] <ganesh> Flannel: omitting the directory from where i was copying
[07:05] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Well then mine must be diff.
[07:05] <Flannel> ganesh: That's not a sudo issue then, thats a cp issue.
[07:05] <a_l_e> is there a good way to install oo.org 3.0 for 8.04?
[07:05] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> yme, Are they wrong every time?
[07:05] <Rishab> hi all
[07:06] <syockit> ganesh: you're copying a directory?
[07:06] <biouser> In software testing terminology alpha testing is done by the client in the presence of the tester or developers and the test environment is not open for the end user.
[07:06] <syockit> ganesh: you'd need the -r parameter
[07:06] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Flannel, Im pretty sure i did, and i can su root, and stick in a diff passwd to my sudo passwd, and it logs in.
[07:06] <Rishab> while trying to restart my network service i am getting error msg "Reconfiguring network interfaces...SIOCADDRT: File existsFailed to bring up eth0.done."
[07:06] <ganesh> syockit: let me try yes i was copying a directory
[07:06] <yme> CoUrPsE|DeAd, from what I can see this happens randomly
[07:06] <biouser> 8.04-8.10 helped my audio so much but not enough... it is tempting to try jaunty
[07:07] <Flannel> biouser: Right, Jaunty is not fit for normal users.  Alpha software generally is day to day.  Today's upgrades may break something that was working just fine  yesterday.
[07:07] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> yme, Then im just as confused as you.
[07:07] <Flannel> CoUrPsE|DeAd: Then you're not using Ubuntu
[07:07] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> lol.
[07:07] <syockit> ganesh: So it'd be like: sudo cp -r <directory> <target>
[07:07] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Pretty sure i am..
[07:07] <ganesh> syockit: hey thanks it works
[07:07] <Flannel> CoUrPsE|DeAd: Are you sure you're not using some third party remix of Ubuntu?
[07:08] <Flannel> CoUrPsE|DeAd: What site did you get your ISO from, etc?
[07:08] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Hummm.
[07:08] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Now im wondering...
[07:08] <ganesh> syockit: hey  can u help me with pcap networking!!
[07:08] <syockit> I thought it's okay to 'su', as long as you know the 'exit' strategy
[07:08] <ganesh> pcap header file configuring
[07:08] <kalvin_> hi, can somone help, i have winxp installed on virtual box, but when i click settings it says theres a usb error, could not load usb proxy service
[07:09] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Flannel, I got Ubuntu from a PC shop locally, NZ has crap bw caps, so i just paid $5 bucks for a copy, Maybe its not orginal... which could explain alot of other things that just dont seem to fit...
[07:09] <zhanglei> where is "sysconfig" directory?
[07:09] <Flannel> syockit: Ubuntu doesn't use the root account, it's locked.  So "su" won't work.
[07:09] <Rishab> while trying to restart my network service i am getting error msg "Reconfiguring network interfaces...SIOCADDRT: File existsFailed to bring up eth0.done." can any one help me ??
[07:09] <adamzyg> $ whereis sysconfig
[07:09] <biouser> jaunty here I come!
[07:09] <ganesh> Flannel: can you help me with configuring pcap.h header file??
[07:10] <zhanglei> thanks,i will try it
[07:10] <yme> CoUrPsE|DeAd I exchanged the usb plugged sockets now, I'm going to reboot to see if it's happening again
[07:10] <Flannel> ganesh: Likely not.
[07:10] <syockit> Flannel: oh, I mistook it with 'sudo -i'
[07:10] <Flannel> CoUrPsE|DeAd: Fair enough.  You could try to contact your LoCo team about getting a real copy.
[07:11] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Flannel, Sounds like a idea to me. /me growls.
[07:11] <tv7497> bling: sir is it possible to secure my wi-fi router with some sort of pass phrase so that only guys i know can use it
[07:11] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> All this time i've had nothing in my hardware driver sections and stuff, cant enable any desktop effects, that could be it...
[07:12] <bling> tv7497: probably, but that depends on the router.  i would consult any paper or online documentation, as every router does things differently.
[07:12] <Flannel> CoUrPsE|DeAd: Sounds extremely likely :)
[07:12] <syockit> tv7497: should be in the router's manual
[07:12] <tv7497> bling: syockit thanks sir will look into it
[07:13] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Lol, and i've been helping people with ther ubuntu with some 3rd party install... No wonder why some things we diff.
[07:13] <biouser> so where do I search/discuss/publish bug reports for 9.04?
[07:13] <Flannel> CoUrPsE|DeAd: #ubuntu-nz (and they have a ML, etc): https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NZTeam
[07:13] <Flannel> !launchpad | biouser
[07:13] <syockit> The first time I read that it seemed like "sir, do you know how to bling the router...". My eyes are getting weak
[07:13] <Flannel> biouser: Also, Jaunty questions/support/etc is in #ubuntu+1
[07:13] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Flannel, nice...
[07:14] <yme> CoUrPsE|DeAd it looks now they booted normally, after having exchanged the USB entry sockets
[07:14] <bling> syockit: or you are just way cooler and have more bling than the rest of us here.  ;-)
[07:14] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> yme, Still weird, but coo coo.
[07:14] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Yay, 16 users in NZ have ubuntu+IRC~
[07:16] <vince> Hey Flannel are you still in here?
[07:16] <biouser> I should have read the topic in ubuntu+1 before starting the upgrade haha, oh well, it's time for me to give a bit back :P
[07:17] <zhanglei> why does not the directory "/etc/sysconfig" exist?
[07:17] <Flannel> vince: Yep
[07:18] <syockit> zhanglei: why do you want it exist?
[07:18] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> zhanglei, Are you looking for /etc/sysctl.d/ ?
[07:18] <vince> Flannel : I figured it out although I have no idea why the heck this worked nor why it wasn't working.  I logged in via a straight console and went into root.  I then disabled the autologin on GDM.  Once I did that I was able to reset the password and now it's taking it.
[07:18] <Flannel> vince: Odd indeed.
[07:19] <vince> Flannel : But it seems to have had something to do with the autologin
[07:19] <norgay> hi.....how do I share a folder to another computer on a windows network through samba
[07:19] <zhanglei> cuz it contain a lot of configs by the book
[07:20] <syockit> let's try !samba
[07:20] <syockit> !samba
[07:20] <zhanglei> but i can't find it
[07:21] <syockit> zhanglei: What book?
[07:21] <nyaa> I'm trying to speed up my boot time, if I remove 3 tty's, what exactly am I getting rid of?  What do tty's do?
[07:21] <syockit> zhanglei: More importantly, what year is that book?
[07:21] <IchiFish> nyaa: ttys are the things which listen for logins when you press ctrl-alt-F*
[07:21] <zhanglei> haha
[07:21] <syockit> nyaa: You don't get to increase that much time with that
[07:21] <IchiFish> nyaa: although, to be honest, they're small enough that stopping them booting will only decrease your boot time minimally
[07:21] <lstarnes> nyaa: they are consoles or terminals
[07:22] <nyaa> so if I push control-alt-f2, then another users session comes up?  all I got was a black screen
[07:22] <syockit> Maybe you'll increase more productivity if you learn how to live in ttys. No more X!!
[07:22] <syockit> nyaa: ? No login prompt?
[07:23] <IchiFish> I get some garbage on X startup relating to old contents of the framebuffer. this includes stuff from other operating systems. I suspect a way around this would be to clear the framebuffer before X start. how would I go about this?
[07:23] <nyaa> sycokit I'm trying with f1 next so I guess I may dissapear, but there was no login prompt.  this is a 1 user machine hehe
[07:23] <nyaa> here goes
[07:25] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Um, Anyone tell him how to get back to X?
[07:25]  * CoUrPsE|DeAd chuckles a little.
[07:25] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> lol. Guess he didnt figure it out.
[07:25] <ActionParsnip> startx or gmd start
[07:26] <IchiFish> ...or just ctrl-alt-f7
[07:26]  * CoUrPsE|DeAd nods.
[07:26] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> But peeps told him to press cltr+alt+F1 and didnt tell him how to get back to X.
[07:27] <IchiFish> I would hope that he could figure it out himself, even if through trial and error
[07:27] <tv7497> bling: for network authentication what should i go to wep , wpa ,wpa2 wpa2-psk mixed wpa2/wpa-psk
[07:27] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Well he just disconnecged eith connection reset so im guessing he didnt, if he was willing to try a few combinations he would of figured it out, doesnt take a genious...
[07:28] <tv7497> guys anyone ?
[07:29] <nyaa> why would you use tty instead of a terminal?
[07:29] <tv7497> nyaa: hi !!!!!!!!!
[07:29] <IchiFish> nyaa: they were used in the pre-X days
[07:29] <nyaa> hey tv =)
[07:29] <IchiFish> nyaa: also if X dies for some reason
[07:29] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> tty pwnz.
[07:29] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> tty is good for dedicated servers.
[07:29] <IchiFish> nyaa: also if you don't want to use X in the first place because you're all hardcore teminally
[07:29] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> and repair jobs.
[07:30] <nyaa> I kinda like tty now that I've figured it out a little, but I don't think I need 6 of them for a laptop with no server purpose =)
[07:30] <tv7497> nyaa: could you help me with what should i go with my Network Authentication wep , wpa ,wpa2 wpa2-psk mixed wpa2/wpa-psk
[07:30] <nyaa> still, is there a better way to speed up boot times?
[07:30] <IchiFish> nyaa: even so, disabling them will do little
[07:30] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> if a tty is sitting there with going, then it aint gunna use jack ****.
[07:30] <IchiFish> tv7497: I'd recommend you go with wpa, it's a good compromise of security and compatibility
[07:31] <IchiFish> nyaa: I'd recommend you take a look at http://lwn.net/Articles/299483/
[07:31] <tv7497> IchiFish: thank you sir
[07:31] <IchiFish> nyaa: bootchart in particular is fun
[07:31] <IchiFish> nyaa: depending on how much experience you have with linux compiling a kernel without modules can speed up kernel boot a fair bit
[07:32] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> You could get a better pc, :P
[07:32] <IchiFish> nyaa: and disabling any unneeded services in /etc/rc*.d (see update-rc.d)
[07:32] <alprix> hi can some one tell me how to have efnet start on connet
[07:32] <alprix> connect
[07:32] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> alprix, Xchat ?
[07:32] <alprix> yes
[07:33] <nyaa> ichifish I'll check it out, thanks =)
[07:33] <mood> alprix: your client usually has a gui that enables you to auto connect upon startup
[07:33] <homeskillet> do programs run faster on 64bit ubuntu?
[07:33] <mood> alprix: check your preferences
[07:33] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> alprix, Xchat/Network list/ select efnet, click edit, enable "auto connect to this network on startup" For further information ask in #xchat
[07:33] <IchiFish> homeskillet: depends what you're doing as far as I know
[07:34] <IchiFish> homeskillet: for most things, not significantly
[07:34] <homeskillet> like will firefox load faster
[07:34] <alprix> ok thanks
[07:34] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Um, firefox itself doesnt take much to load anyway.
[07:34] <Kunalagon> Hello, I just want to check if it is possible to browse Windows shares using Nuatilus in Ubuntu 8.10 ? I tried yesterday, but no share are displayed. Maybe, something is wrong setup in Windows. But when I share folder in Ubuntu, Windows is able to see it. So, if somebody can tell me if there is some bug about that or it is MY mistake somehow?
[07:34] <IchiFish> courpse|dead: depends what sort of a system you're on :P
[07:34] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Kunalagon, Windows Vista ?
[07:35] <IchiFish> if you want to make firefox load lightning quick, set up a ramdisk and dump firefox and its libs in that
[07:35] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> IchiFish, Meaning a hos?
[07:35] <Kunalagon> CoUrPsE|DeAd: no, Windows XP Professional
[07:35] <IchiFish> courspe|dead: hos?
[07:36]  * CoUrPsE|DeAd shurgs firefox opens from my 'sessions' and gets sent to virtual desktop 2, second head, using devilspie, and doesnt get closed when my pc is on.
[07:36] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> IchiFish, /noticed what i meant.
[07:36] <IchiFish> courpse|dead: even so, compared to, say, opera, firefox is slow
[07:37] <IchiFish> course|dead: and not all of us can afford system upgrades every few years
[07:37] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Guess so, fixfox pwnz thou. :)
[07:37] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> oh neither can i, i aint even got a GB of ram, or a 64bit cpu.
[07:37]  * CoUrPsE|DeAd is old school.
[07:37] <IchiFish> courpse|dead: yeah, same here, firefox still kills my system whenever it's in a bad mood
[07:37] <syockit> homeskillet: 64-bit is not significantly faster
[07:38] <werdnum> nonsense.
[07:38] <werdnum> It depends on your use case.
[07:38] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> IchiFish, Humm, I've never bothered bout tweaking to get it to run fase.
[07:39] <howl> something really weird is going on with my user's groups
[07:39] <Shital> which command i should use in 8.10 to install kde4, what all the repositories i have to add?
[07:40] <syockit> nyaa: also, check if your system's running those server that you don't really need as a normal user, like apache, mysql, etc...
[07:40] <syockit> Shital: You mean you're on Ubuntu?
[07:40] <syockit> Shital: and not Kubuntu?
[07:41] <syockit> Shital: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[07:41] <Shital> yess i installed ubuntu with live CD, now with internet i want to install kde4
[07:41] <syockit> werdnum: I refer to his case of starting firefox
[07:42] <werdnum> Firefox loading is disk-bound, I think.
[07:42] <werdnum> so the fastest processor in the world won't help.
[07:43] <syockit> shiman__: refer http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/kde . But if you still want to use GNOME, don't change to kdm
[07:43] <howl> a little while ago I could type groups and www-data would show up but I couldn't write or modify files despite belonging to the group.  I opened up the group manager in ubuntu and www-data didn't even exist.  So I created it.  Now when I type "groups" I get an error "id: cannot find name for group ID 33".  I look in /etc/groups and there is no group 33 ... any ideas/ways to solve this?
[07:44] <CrownAmbassador> Internet connection via ADSL (LAN, wired connection) with 8.10 on some computers seems to be a problem. Looks like a lot of people has this problem but no one has a work around. Anyone here having this problem?
[07:45] <IchiFish> crownambassador: any specifics?
[07:45] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> You havent stated a problem...
[07:45] <syockit> CrownAmbassador: it's too generic to say ADSL. It might be problem with the network card/interface
[07:46] <CrownAmbassador> This is what I posted in the Ubuntu Forum: Hi guys.
[07:46] <CrownAmbassador> I might have asked this question here before, but nobody could help me, so as this is about 2 and a half months later I figured I'd try again. Was actually hoping this would be sorted out via a update by now.
[07:46] <CrownAmbassador> Since doing a fresh install to 8.10, my ADSL (wired, lan or whatever you wanna call it) does not work. When I plug the modem in, the network manager starts working and then connects to a connection it creates on its own called Auto eth0. Only problem is this is all it does. I can't open websites, ping Google, or even ping the router. My work computer running Windows XP is connected to the same router, so the router is fine.
[07:46] <CrownAmbassador> The machine is question is my personal laptop and it has a built-in 3G card which works perfectly with the network manager.
[07:46] <FloodBot2> CrownAmbassador: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:46] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> ...
[07:46] <werdnum> hehe
[07:46] <Caim____br> i need help with atheros ar5007eg on amd 64 please!
[07:46] <tien> hi there....does anyone know where the "vpnc" profile located in Ubuntu 8.10 ?
[07:46] <syockit> Could've just posted the link to the forum
[07:46] <CrownAmbassador> oops
[07:47] <IchiFish> crownambassador: in a terminal, do ifconfig eth0 after network-manager has done its thing, and send a link to the output
[07:47] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CrownAmbassador, when using wget in terminal, does it tll you resolving address to 10.0.0.1 ?
[07:47] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Often the case you need to enter your nameservers manually.
[07:49] <Caim____br> i did everything that the ppl says on forums and dont work
[07:50] <IchiFish> caim____br: what have you tried thus far?
[07:50] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: http://linuxoutputs.blogspot.com
[07:51] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: alright, you're not even receiving an IP address from the router, how odd...
[07:52] <IchiFish> try: sudo dhclient eth0, and paste a link to the output of that
[07:52] <CrownAmbassador> CoUrPsEDeAd: what must i wget?
[07:52] <tv7497> guys whats the best linux game ?
[07:52] <syockit> CrownAmbassador: also, try some non-conventional  solutions like restarting the router, and replugging the cable
[07:52] <Kunalagon> hello, Is there any GUI for configuring PPPOE connectuion, wireless for example ?
[07:52] <IchiFish> tv7497: UT2004, in my opinion
[07:52] <syockit> tv7497: many will say Tux Racer!!!
[07:52] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Follow what IchiFish is saying.
[07:53] <IchiFish> syockit: that's true too :P
[07:53] <tv7497> IchiFish: what kinda game is it sir
[07:53] <IchiFish> tv7497: it's a commercial game, an FPS
[07:53] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: will do as soon as its doen running that command
[07:53] <syockit> tv7497: mindless killing and fragging
[07:53] <IchiFish> tv7497: yeah, what syockit said
[07:54] <CrownAmbassador> syockit: i've tried that a million times. that router is connected to this computer i'm using at work now running windows.
[07:54] <tv7497> syockit: similar to crysis
[07:54] <tv7497> ?
[07:54] <CrownAmbassador> it worked perfectly with hardy
[07:54] <syockit> Oh sorry, UT2004's got assault! Now that's not mindless...
[07:54] <IchiFish> tv7497: the original unreal tournament is already very good if you don't mind the outdated graphics
[07:54] <Alfarin> I took over a friend's laptop (legally, he no longer wants it), but I messed up when I tried to remove his user and adding myself... now when I try to start System > Admin > User & Groups or whateve, it wont let me edit anything... if I try to unlock it, it'll say it encountered an unknown error w/o asking me for password... any idea where that applet is so I can manually su before launching it?
[07:54]  * syockit doesn't know crysis. He's been off from gaming scene for years
[07:55] <IchiFish> tv7497: roughly the same genre but completely different feel
[07:55] <dinesh372> which is the latest version of the book ubuntu unleashed
[07:55] <luxarie> would any1 be interested in helpin a noob?
[07:55] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: posted
[07:55] <IchiFish> luxarie: depends what your question is
[07:55] <syockit> Alfarin: nice, you accidentally added yourself as a non-admin user
[07:56] <syockit> But I think that can be solved through a live cd hacking....
[07:56] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: that's rather peculiar, it looks like it might be a driver issue or something
[07:56] <tv7497> syockit: crysis is the most awesome game  played for a while you play as an invincible super agent discovering what Koreans are up-to
[07:56] <Alfarin> I have root account access, but gnome wont let me login using that account :p
[07:56] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassdor: do you know the model/chipset of your NIC?
[07:56] <_2> is this the internet ?
[07:57] <eatThisAndDie> _2: no this is IRC
[07:57] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: Driver for my network card?
[07:57] <Alfarin> so if I can get access to the panel thing using command line, it shouldnt need live cd
[07:57] <syockit> tv7497: But they're only up to conquer asian countries with their korean drama influence!
[07:57] <tv7497> IchiFish: what about fifa sir could it be played n ibex ?
[07:57] <_2> eatThisAndDie heh.  irc==internet relay chat   :)
[07:57] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: *feels like a newbie* what is a NIC?
[07:57] <IchiFish> tv7497: maybe, check the wine application database
[07:57] <tv7497> syockit: eh ?
[07:57] <luxarie> well i have a laptop for my home rec. studio and it wasnt fast enuff so i got a dt and now the mill$ task at hand now is ftp so i guess i just needa host name etc
[07:57] <syockit> CrownAmbassador: like, do a lmesg and look for the network interface name
[07:58] <IchiFish> tv7497: UT and UT2004 run natively though, without a compatibility layer
[07:58] <Alfarin> no, irc = i repeat classes
[07:58] <syockit> CrownAmbassador: sorry, dmesg
[07:58] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: a NIC is just a network interface :)
[07:58] <Tidus> NIC = Network Interface Card
[07:59]  * _2 wonders where the acronymn command is...
[07:59] <IchiFish> luxarie: can you rephrase that a bit? what do you mean by "mill$ task at hand now is ftp"?
[07:59] <luxarie> did that make sence ichifish?
[07:59] <syockit> CrownAmbassador: try something along the lines of 'dmesg | grep Ethernet'
[07:59] <CrownAmbassador> CrownAmbassador: What is the difference between dmesg and lspci?
[07:59] <IchiFish> _2: wtf is fun
[07:59] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: dmesg prints the kernel's log output, lspci prints a readout of what's connected to the PCI bus
[07:59] <CrownAmbassador> syockit: This has got me for a long time: how do I get that little stripe? hehe
[07:59] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: lspci might be easier to look through
[08:00] <luxarie> a lil sarcasm ive been trying to do it for 5hrs or so just take files from computer 1 and send to computer 2
[08:00] <IchiFish> _2: it's in bsdgames or something like that I think
[08:00] <IchiFish> ah ok
[08:00] <_2> CrownAmbassador   lshw -C network
[08:00] <IchiFish> luxarie: I take it both of your computers are running linux of some description?
[08:00] <syockit> CrownAmbassador: it's called the pipe. You don't have it on your keyboard? mine's a japanese, I forgot the regular ones...
[08:01] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: syockit: I'll post all the outputs on the blog again.
[08:01] <_2> luxarie ssh ?
[08:01] <luxarie> xp on 1 and vista on 2
[08:01] <_2> heh.
[08:01] <IchiFish> luxarie: why are you posting on an ubuntu irc then? :P
[08:01] <syockit> _2: cool, learnt something new!
[08:01] <_2> luxarie ##windows is for you
[08:02] <luxarie> doh didnt know srru
[08:02] <IchiFish> luxarie: set up a shared folder on one, probably easier to do it on the xp one (right click -> properties, sharing tab)
[08:02] <_2> syockit full list is   lshw | less
[08:02] <CrownAmbassador> Mmm... anymody have an idea of how to get the pipe a "normal" keyboard?
[08:03] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: on US keyboard's I think it's near the enter key
[08:03] <_2> syockit pretty handy command   imo
[08:03] <njoseph> hellp
[08:03] <Alfarin> hazzah, hacked myself as admin now :)
[08:03] <rww> CrownAmbassador: US keyboards usually have the pipe symbol as shift-\. \ is just above the enter key
[08:03] <njoseph> hello
[08:03] <njoseph> is anybody there
[08:03] <njoseph> yeah
[08:03] <syockit> Alfarin: congrats! now a hacker, eh
[08:03] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: on my UK one it's just to the right of the right shift key
[08:03] <Alfarin> njoseph> no, we're just figments of your imagination :)
[08:04] <njoseph> u?
[08:04] <njoseph> u are a hacker?
[08:04] <shauno> IchiFish: other left
[08:04] <IchiFish> njoseph: just ask the question
[08:04] <syockit> CrownAmbassador: don't forget to give the link to the blog or anything you said
[08:04] <rww> !ot | njoseph
[08:04] <Alfarin> syockit> not yet :p
[08:04] <IchiFish> shauno: whoops :P I haven't slept for a while
[08:04] <_2> njoseph i'm just a hacker wannabeee
[08:04] <njoseph> hehe
[08:04] <syockit> Alfarin: In where I came from (Malaysia), anyone who's computer literate is called a hacker
[08:04] <tv7497> syockit: sir did you say something before i leave unusual power cut here
[08:05] <Alfarin> lol
[08:05] <IchiFish> pah. use computers because they're fun and to learn. don't label yourself a hacker unless you actually hack in the proper sense of the term, you modify programs and hardware to do what you want
[08:05] <tv7497> syockit: lol
[08:05] <njoseph> how happy it is
[08:05] <syockit> Apparently, you can't easily mend cultural differences
[08:05] <tv7497> njoseph: dude are you an indian ?
[08:06] <syockit> tv7497: nothing much, just that since you said you'd be pasting the result on a blog, you should give the link to it
[08:06] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: found the | looks broken on the keyboard! dmesg cuts off. It doesn't show everything on the screen. Kinda like it is too long...
[08:06] <syockit> tv7497: ayyyy wrong person!
[08:06] <syockit> s0orry
[08:06] <tv7497> syockit: never mind :)
[08:07] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: try lspci | grep -i network
[08:07] <afroken> hi - is there a way to install nvidia drivers thru the comand line ?
[08:07] <luke_> Hey, little trouble with compiz here
[08:07] <IchiFish> afroken: I would guess something like sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180
[08:07] <_2> CrownAmbassador are you in "less" if so use the dirrectional keys to move
[08:08] <tv7497> afroken: the series sir ?
[08:08] <afroken> IchiFish, i guessed the same - but i couldn't google any precise info , i dont want to mess my system up
[08:08] <luke_> *waves his hand in the air* Hey, hey, over here people
[08:08] <afroken> tv7497, erm?
[08:08] <Flannel> !ask | luke_
[08:08] <luke_> I'm trying to get the cube on my desktop again, but for some reason it's not working
[08:09] <tv7497> afroken: i meant he series of the card mine is geforce 9400gt
[08:09] <afroken> tv7497, you mean : nVidia Corporation GeForce 8600 GT (rev a1)
[08:09] <rww> How do I change the theme of Gnome applications run as root?
[08:09] <wjc> hello !
[08:09] <Guest77453> Hello All, I just installed Ubuntu 8.10 and updated all latest software application, then reboot....the display is coming back with a large font....how/where to reset the better Display ?
[08:10] <syockit> rww: you'd probably have to run the theme settings as root.
[08:10] <tv7497> afroken: well nvidia 177' driver would support that
[08:10] <tv7497> well*
[08:10] <Guest77453> how to get nvidia ?
[08:10] <syockit> rww: sorry, I don't know the commands for that though
[08:11] <_2> gksudo gnome-theme-manager   @ rww
[08:11] <PC-Ente> what time is it  ?
[08:11] <IchiFish> afroken: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-177 should do it
[08:11] <PC-Ente> oh yes 9/11...
[08:11] <CrownAmbassador> _2: What do yo mean?
[08:11] <syockit> 17:11 in Japan
[08:11] <tv7497> afroken: is it okie for you to install it graphically using add/remove
[08:11] <afroken> tv7497, dont have add/remove
[08:11] <syockit> !less
[08:11] <syockit> damn it!
[08:11] <_2> CrownAmbassador i didn't raddle your cage,  did i  ?
[08:12] <tv7497> afroken: sir in application>add remove whats the version of ubuntu you are using
[08:12] <syockit> CrownAmbassador: less is a tool for viewing contents of a file, but can also read from standard output (the hell that means anyway)
[08:12] <shauno> rww: I believe if you're using gnome's sudo thing, the theme settings should propogate via gnome-settings-daemon.  You just have to make sure the theme you're using is in /usr/local/themes rather than ~/.themes/ else the root apps don't see it
[08:12] <afroken> tv7497, SERVER
[08:12] <CrownAmbassador> _2: I'm trying to multi task so I'm loosing the plot! Hehe! Customers! Even if I scoll up in terminal I can't see the whole output.
[08:13] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: try pressing q, do you get back to a regular prompt?
[08:13] <_2> syockit less is a pager
[08:13] <shauno> less is more, more or less.
[08:13] <afroken> tv7497, sorry for the caps, server+xfce
[08:13] <nbah_> Guest77453: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst whiothin naon or whatever
[08:13] <_2> shauno no.  "more is less than less, because less is more than more"
[08:14] <less> hehe, shauno.. dont hl me :P
[08:14] <tv7497> afroken: :) lol sorry sir i cant help you i have no idea how to in server version well '177 will support your card sir are you using irssi now to talk in this channel ?
[08:14] <rww> shauno: You mean it'll propogate my (non-root) theme to root apps? I actually want it to /not/ do that. I'd like my root apps to be bright-red or something similarly dangerous-looking ;)
[08:15] <_2> gksudo gnome-theme-manager   @ rww  < again.
[08:15] <rww> _2: tried that, isn't working
[08:15] <_2> rww define ?
[08:15] <afroken> tv7497, i have a GUi but very simple
[08:16] <tv7497> afroken: does synaptic work in server sir ?
[08:16] <Out_Cold> well i don't know what i did to screw up my web flash player as it was working until recently. anyone give me an idea of what to look for or where to start?
[08:16] <rww> _2: after changing appearance settings using gksudo gnome-theme-manager, gksudo'd applications continue to use my user's theme settings, rather than root's
[08:16] <shauno> rww: it used to be that symlinking /root/.gtkrc straight to a themes's gtkrc would do the trick.  no idea if that was ever a sensible idea, or if it still works with settings-daemon
[08:16] <_2> hmmm ///
[08:17] <IchiFish> Out_Cold: could try sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-nonfree && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[08:17] <Out_Cold> will do thanks IchiFish
[08:17] <afroken> tv7497, it does! i didnt think of that,,,, what should i look for in synaptic ? nvidia?
[08:18] <IchiFish> Out_Cold: (that reinstalls the flash plugin, by the way; the && does the second command after the first, providing the first one is successful)
[08:18] <tv7497> afroken: yes sir nvidia 177' driver
[08:18] <_2> rww sorry. i haven't done that sense dapper,  don't know what may have changed.
[08:18] <afroken> tv7497, thank you so much
[08:18] <IchiFish> afroken: *buries face in hands*
[08:19] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: how's it coming?
[08:19] <syockit> ....
[08:19] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: It comes back to the regualr promt without pressing q.
[08:19] <Out_Cold> IchiFish, the purge was successful yet i still don't have any flash.... anyone with more ideas?
[08:19] <syockit> Out_Cold: restart browser?
[08:20] <tv7497> IchiFish: sir well along with 177 driver we need to install many more application  to make nvidia card work the add/remove program took care for me sir you know what are required ?
[08:20] <Elipsis> hiya
[08:20] <CrownAmbassador> I posted everything exept for dmesg on http://linuxoutputs.blogspot.com
[08:20] <Out_Cold> did also syockit
[08:20] <Elipsis> What's the GNOME version of this?: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/Smb4K
[08:20] <Elipsis> A Samba (SMB) share advanced browser for KDE
[08:20] <syockit> CrownAmbassador: also, next time, let's use pastebin :)
[08:21] <IchiFish> tv7497: the package's post install script should take care of that, and apt should handle any dependencies
[08:21] <syockit> CrownAmbassador: so it's NetXtreme BCM5755M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express
[08:21] <tv7497> IchiFish: oh!
[08:21] <syockit> CrownAmbassador: strange. it should've worked. Did it work when using live CD?
[08:23]  * tv7497 wine says fifa09 works in wine 
[08:23] <CrownAmbassador> syockit: how does pastemin work? The live CD also didn't work. But I'm just thinking... A while back I had the live cd on the desktop here at work and it also didn't work. Runs threw the same router...
[08:24]  * syockit suspects something wrong on the router...
[08:24] <_2> !pastebinit | CrownAmbassador
[08:24] <syockit> !pastebin
[08:24] <mib_rj5tfo> I set the "shopt -s histappend" and exported HISTFILE=~/.bash_history but there is no such file created!
[08:24] <_2> syockit no the python script
[08:24] <syockit> I forgot the
[08:24] <mib_rj5tfo> and I get different bash histories for different terminals I open
[08:24] <_2> !info pastebinit | CrownAmbassador
[08:24] <mib_rj5tfo> so where is the history saved then??
[08:24] <syockit> pipe. oh, there's a python script for it?
[08:25] <_2> that
[08:25] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: post the output of dmesg | grep -i bcm to your blog
[08:25] <_2> !info pastebinit > syockit
[08:25] <syockit> _2: ahah, that doesn't work if you don't got no net!
[08:26] <_2> if he didn't have any net he wouldn't be here
[08:26] <_2> what am i missing ?
[08:26] <IchiFish> _2: he could be on on another computer
[08:26] <syockit> _2 ... true indeed
[08:26] <IchiFish> _2: although I wonder how he's pasting output...
[08:26] <syockit> _2 but thanks for another new idea!
[08:26] <_2> IchiFish yep
[08:27] <syockit> _2: Copy output message to a file. Copy file to a disk. Copy from disk to the net computer
[08:27] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: posted it on my blog and pastebin. What do I do after pasting it in pastebin?
[08:27] <paul68> is there a way to automaticly change the network connection from home (connection without proxy) and work (connection with proxy) without having to adapt this manually each time
[08:27] <mib_rj5tfo> I set the "shopt -s histappend" and exported HISTFILE=~/.bash_history but there is no such file created! And I get different bash histories for different terminals I open. So where is the history saved then??
[08:27] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: hmm, ok, so there are no obvious errors the kernel's reporting...
[08:28] <syockit> CrownAmbassador: on pastebin, after clicking send, you can select the url and paste it here
[08:28] <_2> syockit that's still a network connection...    granted pastebinit.py probably wouldn't help there tho
[08:28] <exsanet> kuntum ndi?
[08:28] <syockit> _2: I think his net pc is a windows anyways....
[08:28] <CrownAmbassador> syockit: oh... hehe. Aduh! http://paste.ubuntu.com/107638
[08:28] <_2> python works in windos to
[08:29] <exsanet> heh
[08:29] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: do you happen to know the details of your network, so you can set an IP address manually?
[08:29] <afroken> hi, need help with compiz- installed nvidia drivers but running compiz-replace i get "Checking for Xgl: not present.
[08:29] <afroken> No whitelisted driver found"
[08:30] <CrownAmbassador> IschFish: I know the username, password and router IP. What else do I need to know and can I get that via this windows pc?
[08:30] <syockit> _2: but need to install python etc. A, see it was a windows!
[08:30] <exsanet> taeek semua
[08:30] <_2> CrownAmbassador you did look at   ifconfig -a    to make sure that eth0 is recognized there didn't you?
[08:31] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: that should be enough. paste your internal IP address to somewhere so I can give you the commands to type
[08:31] <xxploit__> afroken: try #compiz
[08:31] <afroken> xxploit__, ok, thanks
[08:31] <IchiFish> _2: he tried ifconfig eth0 a while ago, was found there, but with no IP address
[08:31] <exsanet> ow...i now
[08:32] <CrownAmbassador> _2: Well I don't know what to look for there http://paste.ubuntu.com/107640
[08:32] <_2> IchiFish ok.    ifdown eth0 ;ifup eth0     did he ?
[08:32] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: You mean the router ip?
[08:32] <paul68> is there a way to automaticly change the network connection from home (connection without proxy) and work (connection with proxy) without having to adapt this manually each time
[08:32] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: sorry, yeah
[08:33] <Tidus> wow... kline time...
[08:33] <IchiFish> _2: network-manager didn't seem to work. dhclient also didn't do much
[08:33] <syockit> Now I wonder if dhcp is even enabled or not on his router
[08:33] <IchiFish> _2: he seems to have tried rebooting and the like so I don't think it was anything weird caused by a temporary thing
[08:33] <IchiFish> syockit: yeah, that's why we're trying setting it manually
[08:33] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: hang on a second
[08:33] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: can you clarify your setup to us?
[08:34] <Mayank> WHAT IS NSIS ERROR
[08:34] <_2> IchiFish right.   he's online via the wifi card ?
[08:34] <Flannel> JamesMowery: Please turn that off.
[08:34] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: ip on http://paste.ubuntu.com/107641/
[08:34] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: the ppp0 entry from ifconfig -a, is that a separate modem to the router we're trying to get working?
[08:34] <tarelerulz> I have the hardest time sharing files .   I want to share the home directories of my desktop and laptop.  I looked in the smb.conf and everything seems fine .  I keep getting permission problems anyone else try to do this ?
[08:35] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: The ppp0 might be my 3G connection.
[08:35] <Mayank> when is try to install wubi with my xp..its says nsis_error...why?
[08:35] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: ah, alright, fair enough
[08:35] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.88 up; route add default gw 10.0.0.2; echo 'nameserver 10.0.0.2 > /etc/resolv.conf'
[08:36] <Mayank> when is try to install wubi with my xp..its says nsis_error...why?
[08:36] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: that may well knock out whatever connection you have on there at the moment though (only temporarily though, nothing a reboot or just network manager won't fix)
[08:36] <_2> IchiFish bad quoteing on the echo
[08:36] <IchiFish> whoops
[08:36] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: Do I just paste that in terminal or do i manually paste it in resolv.conf?
[08:36] <IchiFish> *echo 'nameserver 10.0.0.2' > /etc/resolv.conf
[08:36] <tarelerulz> :/join  #samba
[08:36] <IchiFish> just paste that in a terminal
[08:36] <tarelerulz>  /ion  #samba
[08:36] <afroken> where is xorg.conf in intrepid?
[08:37] <rww> afroken: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:37] <tarelerulz>                              /join  #samba
[08:37] <tarelerulz>  /join #samba
[08:37] <_2> afroken hardly used anymore
[08:37] <lartz> hi everyone i have a question. how good is wubi ubuntu? i wanna try the new ubuntu becouse i havent used ubuntu for over a year now.
[08:38] <rww> lartz: If you're okay with partitioning, do that instead of Wubi. Wubi can be problematic.
[08:38] <_2> lartz still has bumps and twists
[08:38] <IchiFish> lartz: I can't speak from personal experience but I would suspect that the disk performance from a wubi install would be significantly worse than a proper install
[08:38] <paul68> is there a way to automaticly change the network connection from home (connection without proxy) and work (connection with proxy) without having to adapt this manually each time
[08:38] <afroken> rww: afro@server:~$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:38] <afroken> afro@server:~$
[08:38] <Helloeoo> hi
[08:38] <afroken> it doesnt exist
[08:38] <IchiFish> afroken: find / -name 'xorg.conf'
[08:38] <nbah_> lartz: bun a live-cd
[08:38] <IchiFish> afroken: might want a sudo with that
[08:38] <rww> afroken: Well, that's where it should be.
[08:39] <shauno> afroken: I believe that's the correct location.  It's obeyed if it exists, but Xorg will try it's best to do the right thing without it these days
[08:39] <_2> IchiFish nah, just chuck the stderr in /dev/null
[08:39] <jeeves_Moss> how do I track down a zombie process and figure out why it's lost it's min?
[08:39] <lartz> ichifish> ok thanks. <rww> thanks.
[08:39] <IchiFish> _2: hmm true, it always scares me a bit when I get lots of permission denied errors with things like that
[08:39] <_2> no good reason to use sudo with find, unless you are wanting to search places you don't have a right too
[08:39] <IchiFish> _2: not that it means anything...nice little quirks to keep me sane
[08:40] <Rachid_> Can someone tell me why i dont get ownership of a partition I just created in Gparted?
[08:40] <IchiFish> Rachid_: define ownership
[08:40] <syockit> IchiFish: by the way, is /etc/resolv.conf owned by user?
[08:40] <IchiFish> dammit!
[08:40] <lartz> how is the game support in ubuntu now? is it alot of twisting to get some games to work?
[08:40] <IchiFish> sorry, it's been a while since I woke up
[08:40] <afroken> rww, it is there except its an empty file!
[08:41] <paul68> Rachid_: is that partition still active? if so unmount and try again
[08:41] <jeeves_Moss> lartz, what are you looking to run?
[08:41] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador, all of those commands should have been done after sudo -s
[08:41] <syockit> afroken: newer Xorg doesn't use xorg.conf
[08:41] <syockit> afroken: any particular reason why you needing this?
[08:41] <rww> afroken: Intrepid's Xorg can autodetect most settings. The default xorg.conf file, in fact, is mostly empty.
[08:41] <syockit> of, the compiz matters. I forgot
[08:41] <rww> afroken: If you're not having problems with Xorg, /etc/X11/xorg.conf being empty shouldn't be a problem.
[08:41] <syockit> well you can create a xorg
[08:41] <lartz> jeeves_moss> well for starters w.o.w and maybe some other games
[08:42] <Rachid_> IchiFish: i go to the folder propreties and its says im cannot change permissions since im not owner
[08:42] <_2> Rachid_ as a general rule only the superuser should ever own a partition.    i don't think we are talking about the same thing though.
[08:42] <syockit> I forgot the lines...
[08:42] <_2> Rachid_ what "folder" ?
[08:42] <IchiFish> Rachid_: the raw device files for disks and partitions are usually ever (and should ever only be) owned by root
[08:42] <jeeves_Moss> lartz, good luck!  I'd just like to play some steam games.  Go check on the Wine pages
[08:42] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: Oh! Just restarting quick. Gave me some weird error.
[08:42] <IchiFish> Rachid_: if you're referring to the mounted folder, I'm not sure
[08:43] <rww> Rachid_: gparted runs as root. Newly-created partitions are owned by root by default.
[08:43] <lartz> is wine still the only game emulator for ubuntu?
[08:43] <syockit> afroken: You need to create a xorg.conf first.
[08:43] <_2> owner of a partition is totally irrelivant
[08:43] <IchiFish> lartz: wine is not an emulator
[08:43] <Rachid_> how can i ever use(copy stuff into itfor eg.) a partition I created then
[08:43] <shauno> all partitions should be owned by root.  ownership is a role of the filesystem within the partition
[08:43] <syockit> afroken: and that involves some Xserver killing.
[08:44] <_2> Rachid_ what filesystem ?
[08:44] <rww> syockit, afroken: Default xorg.conf that comes with Intrepid: http://pastebin.com/f6e4bf50d
[08:44] <IchiFish> Rachid_: sudo cp -R source /mnt/whereitsmounted
[08:44] <paul68> is there a way to automaticly change the network connection from home (connection without proxy) and work (connection with proxy) without having to adapt this manually each time
[08:44] <IchiFish> afroken: as far as I know you should just be able to put a <device> section in the blank file and put what you need in there and it'll autodetect the rest
[08:44] <_2> IchiFish heh.  why not just have him login/run as root   heh...
[08:44] <lartz> then what is wine? (converter?)
[08:44] <IchiFish> paul68: adapt what manually each time?
[08:44] <Rachid_> IchiFish: everytime i want to copy??
[08:44] <_2> Rachid_ what filesystem ?
[08:45] <afroken> IchiFish, should i just copy rww's file into mine?
[08:45] <Kunalagon> so, nobody can confirm if it is possible to browse windows shares using Ubuntu 8.10 ?
[08:45] <IchiFish> lartz: sorry, I was just being weird :P wine is an acronym for wine is not an emulator, technically speaking it's a compatibility layer
[08:45] <_2> Rachid_ i'm willing to help you,  if you will answer my questions
[08:45] <rww> lartz: http://www.winehq.org/about/
[08:45] <IchiFish> kunalagon: sorry, yes, it is
[08:45] <Rachid_> _2: reisFS
[08:45] <IchiFish> kunalagon: if you can't see it under places -> network, then try putting the info in manually in places -> connect to server
[08:45] <_2> Rachid_ and mounted where ?
[08:45] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: so the right command is http://pastebin.ubuntu/107645 ?
[08:45] <rww> lartz: Anyway. Wine's compatibility has gotten better over the years, but it still has problems with some games. You can use the Wine AppDB ( http://appdb.winehq.org/ ) to look up details.
[08:46] <Kunalagon> IchiFish: I share some folder in WIndows, and I see my Windows machine, but when I double clikck, there is no folder there (using nauitlus)
[08:47] <EF_Codd> Sorry if this is OT, but is there any truth to a "Obuntu" release for the inauguration?
[08:47] <IchiFish> kunalagon: that's odd, you're sure you've got things set up correctly? can other windows machines see them?
[08:47] <Flannel> EF_Codd: No
[08:47] <lartz> ichifish> ok ;) rww> ok thanks i will check it out becouse i wanna know befor i jump in and starts to install and cant get my wow to work that would be the end of the world for me :-P
[08:47] <RemsSs> hi everybdy
[08:47] <EF_Codd> Flannel ah ok
[08:47] <Kunalagon> IchiFish: I have to try that...
[08:47] <Rachid_> _2: I first tried in an existing extended partition where there was unallocated space because I had already created many partition this week and it was always possible for me to use it right away
[08:47] <EF_Codd> Flannel guess they are playing games in #debian again
[08:47] <_2> Rachid_ and mounted where ?
[08:47] <huwenfeng> ﻿one server run rsync as daemon, i use ps aux | grep rsync | grep -v grep to get the number of rsync. how can i caculate the real rsync number from this number?
[08:47] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: sudo -s; ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.88 up; route add default gw 10.0.0.2; echo 'nameserver 10.0.0.2' > /etc/resolv.conf
[08:47] <_2> Rachid_ and mounted where ?      i mean where are you mounting the filesystem you just created ?
[08:47] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador:  notice the semi colon after the sudo -s
[08:47] <Rachid_> well its automatically mounted as /media/data3
[08:48] <rww> lartz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft may be of help for WoW :)
[08:48] <Rudd-O> oh yeah for those who may be interested: http://rudd-o.com/new-projects/linuxvideoconverter
[08:48] <_2> Rachid_ ok, run this command,   sudo chown $USER /media/data3
[08:48] <EF_Codd> Flannel so I guess the rumours of "Bushuntu" are also false?
[08:48] <Flannel> EF_Codd: Indeed.  I suggest future inquiries like this should be in #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:48] <_2> Rachid_ you now "own the partition"  in your terminology
[08:48] <EF_Codd> Flannel of course. Thank you for your patience.
[08:49] <lartz> rww> thanks :)
[08:49] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: Okay. That finished without any output. Usually a good thing right?
[08:49] <Rachid_> _2: it says chown: cannot access `/media/data3': No such file or directory
[08:49] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: yup. now try pinging your router, see what happens
[08:49] <IchiFish> Rachid_: adapt the command to where it's mounted
[08:49] <_2> Rachid_ then it's not mounted there.
[08:49] <joiello> ciao
[08:49] <avantcore> does anybody in here have any experience getting dual monitors working?
[08:49] <_2> Rachid_ you can use    df -h   to see where it is mounted
[08:50] <_2> Rachid_ or    mount
[08:50] <Rachid_> oops, right... i changed it so many times
[08:50] <Rachid_> ill try again
[08:50] <lartz> btw is a AMD1.8ghz 512mb-RAM 128mbGeforce to low to run the new ubuntu on?
[08:50] <IchiFish> lartz: plenty
[08:50] <rww> !requirements | lartz
[08:50] <talntid> avantcore: if you have a specific question, ask it
[08:50] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> avantcore, What exactly the problem?
[08:51] <avantcore> eh I don't really have a good question to ask, I've just got this situation I'm dealing with
[08:51] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: response is "connect: Nework is unreachable". Isn't that command I entered suppose to be in the resolv file now?
[08:51] <avantcore> I can get both monitors to work if I'm not using fglrx
[08:51] <_2> lartz i would certainly hope not.    i run old ubuntu on a p1 100mhz 64mb ram
[08:51] <Rachid_> _2: root is still the owner and i cant even create a folder in this mounted partition
[08:51] <avantcore> but I get flickering around the mouse which is really annoying
[08:51] <avantcore> so I'm trying to use fglrx
[08:51] <avantcore> and it works properly when gdm comes up
[08:51] <luke_> I'm trying to enable 3d cube on my desktop with compizconfig like I had last time but for some reason it's not working
[08:52] <IchiFish> CrownAmbasador: no, the resolv.conf thing was just to set the dns server information
[08:52] <avantcore> but then when I log on it just starts mirroring
[08:52] <_2> Rachid_ what is the mountpoint ?
[08:52] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: paste the output of ifconfig eth0 again somewhere
[08:52] <bobslaede> is there a channel for complaining about vista? :)
[08:52] <talntid> bobslaede: yes, #2,000
[08:52] <rww> bobslaede: ##windows
[08:52] <luke_> bob, google Vista Forums :p
[08:52] <bobslaede> nice!
[08:52] <Rachid_> _2: /media/sdfs
[08:52] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> avantcore, System/Prefences/Screen resolution/disable mirror, and click on the monitor it shows, and drag it, sometimes second head hides behind the first.
[08:52] <luke_> So can I get help with my probllem?
[08:52] <bobslaede> luke_: no forums, instant complains! :)
[08:53] <rww> avantcore: have you tried changing the stuff in System > Preferences > Screen Resolution (it has a "mirror screens" setting)?
[08:53] <syockit> Rachid_: should've mounted with different permissions
[08:53] <_2> Rachid_ and   sudo chown $USER /media/sdfs
[08:53] <Rachid_> _2: and i typped : sudo chown $USER /media/sdfs
[08:53] <Spawn> hay when i updated ubuntu from 8.4 to 8.10 x no longer works
[08:53] <eatThisAndDie> guys, anyone know how to configure Intel GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller so that my PC doesn't hang whenever i need 3D?
[08:53] <luke_> Ahh my mistake, try vista chatrooms
[08:53] <_2> Rachid_  and you aren't doing that from a root terminal ?
[08:53] <IchiFish> Spawn: will almost certainly be easier to just backup and reinstall
[08:53] <avantcore> yes I've messed around with The screen Resolution preferences pane; only one monitor shows up there
[08:53] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: My 3G connectin was running when I ran that command. Would this have caused a problem?
[08:53] <syockit> Rachid_: never mind, after sudo chown, what did it say?
[08:53] <luke_> So is anyone going to help with my 3d cube problem?
[08:53] <lartz> Thanks guys you have been a great help i will start to test the new ubuntu on my old pc insted :)
[08:53] <bobslaede> luke_: alright. they made me switch to vista at work :( im going crazy
[08:54] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: hmm...it shouldn't have, but come to think of it, network manager might have
[08:54] <kraut> moin
[08:54] <paul68> IchiFish: well now I have to adapt each time the proxy settings and want to have this done automaticly
[08:54] <luke_> bob, what for
[08:54] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: hang on a sec
[08:54] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> avantcore, click on the one you see, and drag to the right, one often hides behind the other.
[08:54] <Spawn> it does the same thing when i put in a live cd of ubuntu 8.10
[08:54] <_2> Rachid_ show me the output of   mount | grep sdfs
[08:54] <Rachid_> syockit: nothing, just as if it was working
[08:54] <bobslaede> luke_: no idea, active directory stuff i guess
[08:54] <Spawn> or anything with the new kernel
[08:54] <luke_> bobslaede: can you help me with compiz?
[08:54] <bobslaede> luke_: i have a load of 100% most of the time, because of the about 20 apps i have installed, so its useable :P
[08:55] <avantcore> dragging to the right does nothing.  I think I've experienced the hiding monitor box when I wasn't using fglrx so I don't think that's the issue
[08:55] <bobslaede> luke_: depends on your problem?
[08:55] <CrownAmbassador> Ichifish: Hanking ;-)
[08:55] <CrownAmbassador> I meant hanging!
[08:55] <_2> Rachid_ and the output of    ls -l /media/sdfs
[08:55] <talntid> Spawn: what error does it give?
[08:55] <luke_> Trying to enable 3d cube, for some reason it's still flat
[08:55] <syockit> bobslaede: tell them that with samba4, you don't have to worry about active dir compatibility
[08:55] <IchiFish> paul68: I don't know how to do this off the top of my head, search for ubuntu network profile setups
[08:55] <bobslaede> syockit: i told them... didnt work
[08:55] <Rachid_> _2: /dev/sda1 on /media/sdfs type reiserfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=hal)
[08:55] <Spawn> with live cd it gives some pci error
[08:55] <syockit> Damn corporates!
[08:55] <bobslaede> luke_: sometimes you need to restart compiz for it to take effects, log out, and log back in
[08:56] <_2> Rachid_ and the output of    ls -l /media/sdfs
[08:56] <bobslaede> luke_: do you have the compiz settings manager installed?
[08:56] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: OK, I don't have network manager installed at the moment and I can't find anything obvious on google, try setting the information for eth0 manually to a static ip address
[08:56]  * syockit suspects uber business deals going around the top management
[08:56] <Rachid_> _2: ls -l /media/sdfs
[08:56] <Rachid_> ops
[08:56] <talntid> Spawn: "some pci error" -- that's not going to get you much help here. go find the error, write it down, come back, and tell us.
[08:56] <bobslaede> syockit: i agree
[08:56] <Rachid_> _2: total 0
[08:56] <Spawn> but with the update from 8.4 to 8.10 it gives aperture pointing to e820 ram. ignoring
[08:56] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: the relevant info will be ip address: 10.0.0.88; default gateway (or something similar): 10.0.0.2; dns servers (if it needs them) 10.0.0.2
[08:57] <Spawn> your bios doesnt leave a aperture memory hole
[08:57] <luke_> I have tried restarting.  I have compizconfig settings manager running right now so yes
[08:57] <_2> Rachid_ try with + before you paste     so we can see it.
[08:57] <bobslaede> syockit: also, ironicly enough, we have php develpment servers running only thru ssh, so i need an app for that, and it takes like 80% of my cpu :)
[08:57] <Spawn> please enable the iommu option in the bios setup this will costs you 64mb of ram
[08:57] <bobslaede> luke_: then i don't think i can help, i'm sorry
[08:57] <_2> Rachid_ sorry the output of    ls -dl /media/sdfs
[08:58] <bobslaede> luke_: im sure there is a #compiz channel around? have you tried there
[08:58] <_2> Rachid_ the -d is important there.  my mistake.
[08:58] <Spawn> thats it
[08:58] <Rachid_> _2: gives "Total 0"
[08:58] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> avantcore,  i have 'multiple screens' installed on mine that i use, But i cant remember where to get it.
[08:58] <_2> Rachid_ i don't think so.
[08:58] <luke_> How would I access that, I'm a newb :p
[08:58] <talntid> Spawn: did you look for that option in bios?
[08:58] <syockit> Rachid_: you didn't create the directory before mounting?
[08:59] <Spawn> idk where i would look
[08:59] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: So I just add a wired connection? It is asking for a Mac address, if it must use 802.1X security and the method of the ipv4 setting
[08:59] <luke_> So can anyone else help me with comizconfig?
[08:59] <syockit> _2: do you need to mkdir for mount?
[08:59] <bobslaede> luke_: /join #compiz
[08:59] <avantcore> courpse: is that a separate program?
[08:59] <_2> no
[08:59] <talntid> Spawn: when you reboot the computer, go into bios, usually the "del" key
[08:59] <Spawn> and i also have vista installed and i dont want to mess that up talntid
[08:59] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: eek, I think you might be on the wrong screen
[08:59] <_2> syockit if there is not dir   mount will just fail with "mountpoint does not exist"
[08:59] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> avantcore, Yes, im trying to find itnow.
[08:59] <Rachid_> _2: mount | grep sdfs  gives "drwxr-xr-x 4 jean-francois root 80 2009-01-21 03:30 /media/sdfs"
[08:59] <IchiFish> hang on a second, I'll install network-manager to see how it works
[08:59] <talntid> it won't, and if it does, you can just disable it
[08:59] <avantcore> I just found it in apt
[08:59] <avantcore> I'll take a look at it
[09:00] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: oops! I'm being so humbled today!
[09:00] <luke_> Thanks :)
[09:00] <_2> Rachid_ "jean-francois"  owns that dir(filesystem mounted there) now.
[09:00] <Rachid_> syockit: I create a partition and then after I see it  in "computer" so then I double click on it and it opens
[09:00] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: ok, brb, apt needs to kill networking
[09:01] <_2> Rachid_ so if you are user "jean-francois"   do something like   touch /media/sdfs/boo
[09:01] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CrownAmbassador, Does your 'ifconfig' give you a ip?
[09:01] <xcode> hi i have a small problem overe here
[09:01] <xcode> please
[09:01] <_2> Rachid_ if no errors then we are done.
[09:02] <xcode> i wanted ti change my splash screen but i didnt find it on my prefrenceses
[09:02] <ziroday> xcode: splash screen?
[09:02] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CrownAmbassador, type in Xchat: /exec -o ifconfig eth0 | grep inet
[09:02] <xcode> the splash screen
[09:03] <Rachid_> _2: typing this just created a file named boo (im logged as Jean-Francois) but I still cant drag and drop a file in this place
[09:03] <aeosynth> what's the command to give my group folder access - create and delete files, file access - read and write?
[09:03] <ziroday> xcode: ubuntu has no splash screen. What are you referring to?
[09:03] <bullgard4> What means '61c61' in  http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/393818/? (man diff stinks.)
[09:03] <_2> Rachid_ correct.  which means you own the filesystem
[09:03] <CrownAmbassador> CoUrPsE|DeAd: The only thing it gives me is a hardware address. I'm not running Xchat on my linux laptop. Its on the works windows machine.
[09:03] <IchiFish> right, back
[09:03] <_2> Rachid_ need anything else ?
[09:03] <ziroday> aeosynth: chmod g+rw <folder>
[09:03] <xcode> the one that comesin the beginnong
[09:04] <aeosynth> xcode: you mean the ubuntu logo and progress bar?
[09:04] <Rachid_> _2: oh sorry, actualy i just drrag and drop and it has worked
[09:04] <xcode> yeah
[09:04] <xcode> i thinkg
[09:04] <ziroday> xcode: before you logon?
[09:04] <rww> !usplash | xcode
[09:04] <Rachid_> _2: but i still cant create any folder in this reisFS partiotion
[09:04] <rww> !who
[09:04] <CrownAmbassador> IcheFish: I'm just wondering. When we ran all those commands that I pasted, I was connected on 3G. Would this have made a difference?
[09:05] <aeosynth> xcode: check out startupmanager (sum)
[09:05] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> CrownAmbassador, okies, System/Prefences/Network configuration
[09:05] <_2> Rachid_ yes you can.   mkdir -p /media/sdfs/testing/dir/creation
[09:05] <aeosynth> !startupmanager | xcode
[09:05] <aeosynth> aw
[09:05] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: on the network manager main pane, on the 'wired' tab, click edit when auto eth0 or whatever is selected, then navigate to the ipv4 settings tab, change the method to manual, click add, fill the address as 10.0.0.8, the netmask as 10.0.0.255, the gateway as 10.0.0.2, then click ok
[09:05] <CrownAmbassador> CoUrPsE|DeAd: That is the same screen when I just click on the network manager.
[09:05] <rww> !info startupmanager | aeosynth, xcode
[09:06] <_2> Rachid_ if your file manager is defuncted  close it, (maybe logout and back in) then reopen it and try the gui way.
[09:06] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> okies, IchiFish is back, i'll stop else u'l;l get confused.
[09:06] <Rachid_> _2: this works, but why can't I just create with the File Browser menu or right click in the window...as usual
[09:06] <Rachid_> _2: ?
[09:06] <adac> I have installed the ubuntu server edition. Now can anyone tell me how to force the server to get an ip address on startup? I always must start dhclient by hand at the moment...
[09:07] <Rachid_> _2: Could it be corrupted? if yes can I reinstall it?
[09:07] <Slart> adac: edit the interfaces file and set it to use dhcp.. afaik that should be enough
[09:07] <rww> adac: are you using wired ethernet or wifi?
[09:07] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: on the network manager main pane, on the 'wired' tab, click edit when auto eth0 or whatever is selected, then navigate to the ipv4 settings tab, change the method to manual, click add, fill the address as 10.0.0.8, the netmask as 10.0.0.255, the gateway as 10.0.0.2, then click ok
[09:07] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: Done
[09:07] <adac> rww, ethernet. Slart: where are they located?
[09:07] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: ah, ok, sorry, not sure if my message had got through
[09:07] <rww> adac: then read "man interfaces" and edit /etc/network/interfaces appropriately
[09:08] <_2> Rachid_ short answer is "because everyone keeps crying 'why wont it just work'(automatic) and the developer keep trying to make things more and more like windows, for the sake of all the 'why wont it just work' crap"
[09:08] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: now try pinging router
[09:08] <adac> ok rww
[09:08] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: Same thing. Should I not restart first?
[09:09] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Try ifconfig
[09:09] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> see if it gives you ip./
[09:09] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: hmm, you shouldn't have to. what does ifconfig eth0 say now?
[09:09] <rww> adac: You'll probably end up adding two lines: "auto eth0" and "iface eth0 inet dhcp", but it's probably a good idea to read that man page anyway.
[09:09] <Rachid_> _2: I see...
[09:10] <Jonathan_R> i need the developers site for metapackages
[09:10] <Rachid_> thanks il try rebooting now
[09:10] <_2> Rachid_ traditionally a linux user would expect to manually mount and dismount file systems   so the developers didn't worry much about gui apps that worked with file needing to keep track of changes,  but with the attempts of automating everything it kindof throughs a wrench in some of the "take for granted's"
[09:10] <Rachid_> one more time...
[09:10] <xcode> i still didnt get anywhere could someone tell me how can i change the ubuntu progress bar at the beginning please
[09:11] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: CoUrPsE|DeAd: Still not getting an ip. http://paste.ubuntu.com/107656
[09:11] <xcode> like tell me a a program name or anaything
[09:11] <Jonathan_R> xcode, you mean when your booting?
[09:11] <rww> !info startupmanager | xcode
[09:11] <xcode> yeah
[09:11] <rww> xcode: install startupmanager
[09:11] <dalila> hello guys,  i've just installed ubuntu  8.10,  but i have no sound. i tried to test  my sound in Applications --> sound . test  it all but nothing is functioning. plz help
[09:11] <Jonathan_R> thats a boot theme
[09:11] <Rachid_> _2: Yes I dont really matter typping commands and thats how I was able to use this partition before going here, but I would be loosing time always doign that for a lot of multiple copying all day
[09:12] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> man, your nic's borked...
[09:12] <rww> Jonathan_R, xcode: "usplash theme", specifically.
[09:12] <Jonathan_R> yeah
[09:12] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: yeah, I think I'm going to concur with courpse on this one
[09:12] <Jonathan_R> i need the developers site for metapackages
[09:12] <Rachid_> _2: I was supprised it suddenly stopped working as usual
[09:12] <rww> Jonathan_R: what do you mean by "developers site for metapackages"?
[09:12] <gagica> hello every body
[09:12] <CrownAmbassador> Borked?
[09:12] <_2> Rachid_ yes.  well the change of ownership we made is permanant.  so restarting your gui should fix all your woes
[09:12] <dalila> this is the ifrst time i try ubuntu;  btw. please help me.  i'm not familiar  with linux systems.
[09:12] <gagica> is anyone here?:d
[09:12] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: if it's not even managing to bring itself up it sounds like a hardware problem
[09:13] <Rachid_> ok thanks
[09:13] <Rachid_> good night
[09:13] <Jonathan_R> there has to be documentation for metapackages, not geared for users
[09:13] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: paste the output of dmesg | tail somewhere
[09:13] <Slart> gagica: lots of people here.. if you have a questions about ubuntu just ask
[09:13] <gagica> start - hello
[09:13] <Jonathan_R> i'm working on a project, and i need specific info
[09:13] <gagica> i am new in ubuntu
[09:13] <gagica> and i am lost:((
[09:13] <rww> Jonathan_R: What do you want? A list of metapackages in Ubuntu, information on creating metapackages, etc...
[09:13] <miranda_psi> anyone know what skb buffers are?
[09:13] <Slart> gagica: well, we've all been new to ubuntu.. what is your problem?
[09:14] <Jonathan_R> not creating metapackages
[09:14] <dalila> nobody seems to help me. bye  guys.
[09:14] <sl00> Hi. How can I remove Places and System menu? Or even just remove entries from those menus? Right click does not work (which suck IMO). I have tried the menu editor but it only allow me to add/remove programs from the menu and not all entries.
[09:14] <Jonathan_R> i'm trying to generate a channel list, or a repo list
[09:14] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: google says it's a socket buffer
[09:14] <gagica> start - a have a lot of wuestion. my pc is gone crazy :((
[09:14] <Jonathan_R> so that all a user would need to do is just click which repos they want
[09:14] <gagica> can any one help me
[09:15] <IchiFish> gagica: be specific with what you want help with
[09:15] <SuPeRhAm> lol, 1k people in here and people want to be answered straight away.
[09:15] <Jonathan_R> i'm sure their is an xml file of something like this somewhere, but i need to know where the server is, and how ubuntu does it
[09:15] <gagica> i don't find my drive to ati radeon 9250
[09:15] <adac> rww: I think there is a command which writes those two lines: auto eth0 AND iface eth0 inet dhcp automatically in the /etc/network/interfaces file. But I added them by hand and it works now. thx rww and Slart
[09:15] <gagica> and a lot of programs
[09:15] <_2> sl00 you could right click the panel and add the gnome menu then remove the existing menu
[09:15] <rww> Jonathan_R: 1) What does that have to do with metapackages? 2) You mean something like System > Administration > Software Sources?
[09:15] <IchiFish> gagica: can you rephrase that? your drive?
[09:15] <Slart> adac: great =)
[09:15] <gagica> who want help me ?
[09:15] <IchiFish> gagica: do you mean your driver?
[09:16] <rww> adac: There might be; I don't use Ubuntu Server ;)
[09:16] <Jonathan_R> yes
[09:16] <gagica> yes
[09:16] <gagica> driver
[09:16] <gagica> ati driver
[09:16] <FloodBot2> gagica: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:16] <gagica> is not compatible or what?
[09:16] <gagica> oo
[09:16] <gagica> sory
[09:16] <IchiFish> gagica: with ubuntu the video drivers tend to be installed automatically so you shouldn't have to worry about it
[09:16] <gagica> i didn't know
[09:16] <gagica> sory about that
[09:16] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: do you know why virtualbox (I'm assuming that this caused the problem) would cause Iwlagn to give an error about them?
[09:16] <Rencx> hi, is anyone using gnomesword?
[09:17] <AdvoWork> hi there,is it possible to tell if a cronjob is currently running?
[09:17] <IchiFish> gagica: especially with a legacy card like the 9250 the drivers will be pretty stable by now so it all ought to come working out of the box
[09:17] <Jonathan_R> rww, i can show you an example from another distro
[09:17] <gagica> if u are sweet to help me my id id is blue_eyes8389@yahoo.com
[09:17] <_2> AdvoWork pstree
[09:17] <Jonathan_R> but thats all i have at this point
[09:17] <oCean_> AdvoWork: you can find running processes by using command "ps axuww | grep commandname"
[09:17] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: lwlagn?
[09:17] <adac> rww, well there is not much a difference to normal ubuntu I would say. Only on installation...because my grafic card is half broken I could'nt see the option to set for the automatic dhclient activation, so i skipped that point on installation and now I had to set it by myself ;)
[09:18] <AdvoWork> oCean_,  so ps axuww | grep crontab ?
[09:18] <_2> oCean_ that's ugly.    pidof command-name
[09:18] <rww> Jonathan_R: I'm honestly not sure what you're looking for. You ask about metapackages, which are packages whose function is to depend on a collection of other packages (like ubuntu-desktop depends on desktop-y things), then instead ask about repositories...
[09:18] <miranda_psi> IciFish: thats what I saw coming out on the shell - [timecode] iwlagn: some error about skb buffer
[09:18] <oCean_> AdvoWork: thought you wanted to see a job that you scheduled in the cron
[09:18] <sl00> _2: Where do I find the gnome-menu? I have two menu options when I choose "add to panel" and it is the single button one with Programsd, places and system under it and the other one which shows the icon and the program, places and system text in the panel.
[09:19] <Rencx> is anyone using gnomesword?
[09:19] <oCean_> AdvoWork: use /etc/init.d/cron status to see if cron is running
[09:19] <Slart> !anyone | Rencx
[09:19] <Jonathan_R> yes rww, but the info of metapackages are stored on servers
[09:19] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: hmm, I'm really not sure then, I can't see any reason virtualbox would be using the network drivers unless it was trying to bridge
[09:19] <_2> sl00 that maybe version specific, sorry.
[09:19] <Jonathan_R> what i'm actually looking for is the information that lets the user pick which repos they want
[09:19] <rww> Jonathan_R: That has nothing to do with metapackages.
[09:20] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: could be that virtualbox is incompatible with your specific network card/driver
[09:20] <oCean_> _2: that pidinfo gives *me* too little info. I always use ps
[09:20] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: its set up to NAT
[09:20] <adac> AdvoWork, if you want to see if a command is started by a cron job you could set a log file on the crontab file
[09:20] <Rencx> Does anyone use GnomeSword?
[09:20] <rww> !anyone | Rencx
[09:20] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> lol.
[09:20] <Jonathan_R> from what i've seen it does, but maybe its different in ubuntu
[09:20] <CoUrPsE|DeAd> Slow learner...
[09:20] <AdvoWork> adac, just trying to work out why my systems running slow
[09:20] <rww> Jonathan_R: Which other distribution have you seen this in?
[09:20] <AdvoWork> i think its doing a backup, but cant tell
[09:21] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: paste the specific error you get to a pastebin somewhere
[09:21] <_2> oCean_ yeah but all he seemed to want was to know what was cron doing   pstree might be a good bet for that
[09:21] <sellyoursoul> weird.  my wireless works for irc but not for web
[09:21] <Jonathan_R> rww, http://download.opensuse.org/YaST/Repos/openSUSE_111_Servers.xml
[09:21] <_2> Rencx what about it ?
[09:21] <rww> Jonathan_R: OpenSUSE uses RPM, which is completely different from Debian/Ubuntu's APT.
[09:21] <AdvoWork> oCean_, i did /etc/init.d/cron status and it says:  * Usage: /etc/init.d/cron start|stop|restart|reload|force-reload
[09:21] <Jonathan_R> i want something like that for ubuntu
[09:21] <sl00> All I want is two icons in the panel for Firefox and Ekiga and a logout/shutdown icon. I am trying to make a lock-down-kiosk thingy.
[09:21] <rww> Jonathan_R: hence the terminology confusion, I'd guess ;)
[09:21] <Jonathan_R> this isnt about rpm
[09:21] <Jonathan_R> or anything else
[09:21] <adac> AdvoWork, you could install htop which gives you more options and overview then top
[09:21] <Jonathan_R> i need info like that
[09:22] <_2> Rencx or was that just a poll ?
[09:22]  * aceat64 is away: sleep
[09:22] <Rudd-O> sl00: your best bet is to throw some quick crap around with pygtk and glade
 shows letters wrong mâjvietu viòâ need to show mājvietu viņā.
[09:22] <sl00> Rudd-O: What?!
[09:22] <AdvoWork> adac, a cron should run: /opt/zimbra/bin/zmbackup -f   -a all   thats what I want to check if its running
[09:22] <Jonathan_R> rww, i'm working on a project for smart package manager
[09:22] <rww> Jonathan_R: APT doesn't use .xml files, so I doubt there's a file like that on the Ubuntu repository servers.
[09:23] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: wish I could do that (and would have from the start), but my laptop was lagging badly by the time the errors came and then caused complete freeze (just a black screen)
[09:23] <liangyie02> SDF
[09:23] <Jonathan_R> this has nothing to do with rpm;s
[09:23] <Rudd-O> Jonathan_R: what sort of project?
[09:23] <oCean_> AdvoWork: than your cron (startup) script does not know the option 'status' - you are probably on a different version? Not 8.10?
[09:23] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: my network controller is:  Attansic Technology Corp. L1 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter
[09:23] <Jonathan_R> think of it as a channel list generator
[09:23] <_2> Rencx ah sorry i know nothing about the i18 on that. i set LC_ALL=C  so can't help there.
[09:23] <rww> Jonathan_R: You just said you're looking for a .xml file with (as far as I can tell) a list of Ubuntu repositories on it. There is, to my knowledge, no such file.
[09:23] <Slart> Rencx: you might want to talk to the developers about that.. look here http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnomesword/
[09:24] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: that's weird, according to google iwlagn is a wireless interface. I can't think what it would be. are you using recent kernels/userland/virtualbox versions?
[09:24] <Jonathan_R> well, if ubuntu doesnt use xml, then i need to know what it does use so i can do that
[09:24] <Rencx> Slart, _2: ok
[09:25] <Rudd-O> Jonathan_R: what is it you¿re trying to do?
[09:25] <adac> AdvoWork, set up your crontab with a log file and you see if the command did run or not. See some examples here http://www.adminschoice.com/docs/crontab.htm#Generate%20log%20file or even better here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto
[09:26] <Jonathan_R> do a distro agnostic channel list generator for smart package manager Rudd-O
[09:26] <rww> Jonathan_R: When Ubuntu's installed, the file /etc/apt/sources.list is created with a list of all official Ubuntu repositories for that release in it. Some are commented out by default. The user can change which repositories she wants to be active either manually or with the System > Administration > Software Sources tool.
[09:26] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: my system has all updates installed (kernel 2.6.24-9, VBox OSE 2.04 (2.1 is out but not in the repositories))
[09:26] <Rudd-O> Jonathan_R: channel list generator?
[09:26] <Jonathan_R> yeah
[09:26] <Rudd-O> you mean like in debian and ubuntu the channels are picked up from the apt conf?
[09:27] <Rudd-O> (that's been my experience)
[09:27] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: and the error is reproduceable? your laptop dies everytime you try to launch virtualbox?
[09:27] <rww> Jonathan_R: Unlike RPM-based distributions (as far as I remember), Ubuntu doesn't download a list of repositories from the web.
[09:27] <Jonathan_R> yeah rww i remember that, but thats because apt comes packaged like that
[09:27] <Rudd-O> ok, point of order: NO distribution downloads a list of repositories.  They come PRECONFIGURED with the repos, and download THAT.
[09:27] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: its not when i load virtual box - its when Im trying to install an OS with it
[09:27] <Rudd-O> that is true for ubuntu, fedora, rh, suse, etcetera
[09:28] <rww> Rudd-O: I'll defer to you on non-Debian-based distributions. I haven't used Fedora or SuSE in a while.
[09:28] <Rudd-O> rww: I use fedora
[09:28] <Jonathan_R> i only know of one distro that currently downloads their channels, and thats opensuse, but fedora seems to be moving that way
[09:28] <EF_Codd> rww oh, I find those distros to be most distasteful
[09:28] <Flannel> !offtopic
[09:28] <Rudd-O> Jonathan_R:  your best bet is simply to defer to the system¿s package manager channel list.  i fedora is yum, in ubuntu apt, etcetera
[09:28] <rww> Jonathan_R: okay, and Ubuntu doesn't, so we don't have an equivalent to that SuSE .xml file you linked me to. Does that answer your overall questions?
[09:29] <EF_Codd> Rudd-O oh, so true. So, so true.
[09:29] <Rudd-O> Flannel: it's ontopic, he is trying to develop an app for ubuntu and he is asking for help.  toob bad the answer isn't all we've been hoping for
[09:29] <Jonathan_R> Rudd-O, that'd be kinda hard since i work for smart
[09:29] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: oh I see, what linux (I'm assuming linux?) are you trying to install with it?
[09:29] <Jonathan_R> and it'd also be pointless
[09:29]  * _2 wonders where the !start-a-distro-war infonode wnet
[09:29] <_2> went even
[09:29] <EF_Codd> Jonathan_R ah, good point.
[09:29] <Jonathan_R> yes rww
[09:29] <rww> Jonathan_R: I'd recommend talking to the people involved with Smart that have more experience with Ubuntu, and possibly also the creators of https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/smartpm
[09:30] <Rudd-O> Jonathan_R: you work for the guys at smart?  awesome.
[09:30] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: I'm actually trying to install Windows 7 beta (want to see what its like, but i dont want to ruin my system by installing it properly...)
[09:30] <Jonathan_R> lol i do
[09:30] <Jonathan_R> yes Rudd-O i do the documentation
[09:30] <EF_Codd> what's the best way to describe to a newbie how to open a console window in Gnome. I'm not using Gnome so don't know.
[09:30] <Jonathan_R> and a few other things
[09:30] <rww> EF_Codd: Applications > Accessories > Terminal
[09:30] <EF_Codd> rww thanks
[09:30] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: I have o intention of ever actually using it as my main OS, but one has to know the competition...
[09:31] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: that's really bizarre, I can't think what virtualbox would want to access kernel drivers for cards you don't have installed for...
[09:31] <_2> EF_Codd or  alt+f2 type in: x-terminal-emulator
[09:31] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: are you using virtualbox for ethical (open source yay) reasons? vmware server might fair better with windows enviroments
[09:31] <EF_Codd> _2 no, I want him to stay 'windowed'
[09:32] <_2> EF_Codd that will
[09:32] <rww> IchiFish, miranda_psi: Windows 7 should work fine in VirtualBox. I installed it a month or so ago.
[09:32] <_2> EF_Codd alt+f2 brings up the "run" input box
[09:32] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: I would need the VMWare Workstation to do what I need...
[09:33] <tv7497> IchiFish: well sir i use vbox for open source reasons :D is vmware good ?
[09:33] <EF_Codd> _2 yeah thanks, he's got the command line happening now. Explaining it's not a 'notepad' atm
[09:33] <IchiFish> tv7497: if you can stick with open source it's probably better :) but yeah, I've found vmware fairly good
[09:33] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: have you tried a complete purge and reinstall of virtualbox?
[09:34] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: Sorry, I got swamped with customers! What I don't understand is that I'm not the only one with this problem and it works fine with Hardy. I will find out what card the others are useing. Output: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/107622
[09:34] <_2> EF_Codd heh.  yeah i hate that default "white" background
[09:34] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: by access kernel drivers for cards i dont have do you mean wireless? I do have a wireless card and its just a basic intel one: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection, but im not using it to connect to anything
[09:34] <EF_Codd> _2 ah, I'd forgotten that. I usually just use 'screen' and ssh into my boxes. That explains things heh
[09:34] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: ok, I suppose that's slightly less weird, at least it's something to do with something that's actually installed in your system
[09:35] <tv7497> IchiFish: the main question thats haunting me sir why dont vbox or vmware provide graphics support so that games can be easily played is it to though sir ?
[09:35] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: try sudo rmmod iwlang before starting up virtualbox
[09:35] <Slart> tv7497: virtualbox supports accelerated opengl in their latest version
[09:35] <IchiFish> tv7497: because direct3d is complicated enough as it is without proving it in another operating system
[09:36] <tv7497> Slart: does that mean i can play fifa sir ?
[09:36] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: done a complete re-installation of everything (though i stuffed the system up with my messing around, but it turns out its a bug in wubi where it messed with UUIDs by having my firewire hdd plugged in but i had a fresh system by then...)
[09:36] <Slart> tv7497: I have no idea.. you'll have to try.. it's still pretty new so there might be some bugs
[09:37] <tv7497> Slart: will try sir installation of fifa is going on in my vbox i will be really really happy if it works
[09:37] <stephan> does anyone know how i can get my wireless network card working whit ubuntu?????
[09:37] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: hmm ok, well try with the iwlagn module removed and see how it fairs then
[09:37] <tv7497> stephan: which one sir >
[09:38] <EF_Codd> hmm, this is getting ridiculous. What is the best way for me to remotely help a newbie with a default ubuntu install? I was going to ssh in, but he can't use the console
[09:38] <syockit> tv7497: You probably can play fifa, but under virtualbox, it'd be very sluggish
[09:38] <stephan> how can i see what the name is of the wireless network card in ubuntu,,,, can't find it in here
[09:38] <pejay> EF_Codd: Surely he can just install the ssh package, then you can ssh in
[09:39] <stephan> and i don't have the box here
[09:39] <pejay> Or just have him install VNC
[09:39] <EF_Codd> is there a remote vnc install with Gnome?
[09:39] <oCean_> !wireless | stephan
[09:39] <syockit> pejay: how to make him install?
[09:39] <EF_Codd> pejay the installing part is the part giving him problems
[09:39] <Overand> There *is* a GUI for that.
[09:39] <Overand> Two of them, in fact.
[09:39] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: module removed...
[09:39]  * miranda_psi crosses fingers
[09:39] <gavi> folks, i have a javascript autocomplete field which i would like to post the value which was selected from the autocomplete.. echo $_POST['myFieldname'] doesnt post anything... any ideas
[09:39] <rww> EF_Codd: yup. System > Preferences > Remote Desktop
[09:39] <pejay> Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal then 'sudo apt-get install ssh'
[09:39] <tv7497> stephan: try lspci sir
[09:39] <Flannel> gavi: Try ##javascript
[09:39] <pejay> SURELY he can manage that
[09:40] <Overand> the tricky part is getting them to forward a port
[09:40] <EF_Codd> pejay ok, you tell him. gagica, ask pejay :)
[09:40] <EF_Codd> gagica ask pejay
[09:40] <rww> lol
[09:40] <pejay> lol
[09:40] <sandhya> Hi! Could somebody help me to play FLV files on my system? When I try opening it with VLC, I get "No suitable decoder module: VLC does not support the audio or video format "undf". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this."
[09:40] <EF_Codd> get ready to be amazed :-)
[09:41] <suji> hai anyone know how to unzip a zip file
[09:41] <aprilhare> sandhya, try another player
[09:41] <IchiFish> sandhya: try install mplayer
[09:41] <IchiFish> suji: in CLI, unzip zipfile.zip, in GUI, right click, extract here
[09:41] <igogo> sandhya: mplayer
[09:41] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: I take it i'm out of luck here?
[09:41] <rww> !zip | suji
[09:41] <EF_Codd> gagica no more PMs. pejay is your connection to the high life
[09:42] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: whoops, sorry, I'd forgotten to check
[09:42] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: Okay... No problem, I can see you're multi-tasking...
[09:42] <EF_Codd> gagica just ask him what you asked me. Please.
[09:42] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: can you post it again? the old one seems to have been overwritten
[09:42] <sandhya> aprilhare: IchiFish: igogo: I'm getting an error in mplayer "Cannot find codec for audio format 0xA"
[09:42] <IchiFish> EF_Codd: it's ok, I'm talking to gagica
[09:42] <sandhya> I don't see any video either :(
[09:42]  * miranda_psi leaps with joy
[09:43] <pejay> EF_Codd: it's ok, I'm ALSO talking to gagica
[09:43] <pejay> :S
[09:43] <EF_Codd> IchiFish ok. I lack the patience
[09:43] <miranda_psi> ichiFish: thanks - that seems to work :D
[09:43] <IchiFish> sandhya: how bizarre, are you sure the video isn't corrupt or something?
[09:43] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: wonderful :)
[09:43] <EF_Codd> ah, I told him I'd get him help :)
[09:43] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/107665
[09:43] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: how do I reload the module if i ever need it?
[09:43] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: modprobe iwlagn. if you don't want it loading on boot add it to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[09:43] <sandhya> IchiFish: it plays fine on windows
[09:44] <IchiFish> sandhya: hmm, not sure then, if neither vlc nor mplayer can play it, that's extremely unusual
[09:44] <sandhya> but they both support FLVs on linux, right?
[09:44] <IchiFish> sandhya: yeah, they should do
[09:44] <IchiFish> I've played FLVs before in Linux
[09:44] <IchiFish> might just be an unusual format
[09:45] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: ok, we'll give it one more shot before I declare it definitively a hardware problem
[09:45] <rww> sandhya: Try installing ubuntu-restricted-extras. I have that installed and FLV works fine.
[09:45] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: ok, hang on, I'll just look up the module for your NIC
[09:45] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: Don't you mean a hardware compatibility problem?
[09:45] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: thanks for the help :)
[09:46] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: Okay. How do you do that? (for future reference)
[09:46] <IchiFish> miranda_psi: hey, it's what nice people on the internet are for :) good luck with windows 7
[09:46] <xxCody> Does ubuntu come with a 3D option?
[09:46] <sandhya> rww: I already appear to have it installed
[09:46] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: well, could be either. anyway...
[09:46] <rww> sandhya: hmm. Do you have a link to the FLV file you're trying to play?
[09:47] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: do lsmod | grep -i bcm and paste the output somewhere
[09:47] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: I just find a hardware issue difficult to believe as it works perfectly with other operating systems and hardy.
[09:47] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: have you tried it recently with other OSes/hardy? could it have died recently?
[09:48] <miranda_psi> IchiFish: yeah - usually I'm on the other side of the fence though (its the great thing about communities such as this one :))
[09:48] <xxCody> Does Ubuntu come with a 3D desktop option?
[09:48] <miranda_psi> xxCody: 3D as in what? 3d desktop cube?
[09:48] <xxCody> Yes.
[09:49] <pejay> Yes it does, by deafault
[09:49] <Rudd-O> xxCody: enable desktop efffects
[09:49] <miranda_psi> xxCody: install the compiz settings from synaptic and you can set it up from there
[09:49] <IchiFish> xxCody: yes it does: system->preferences->appearance, visual effects, extra
[09:49] <pejay> System -> Preferences -> Appearance
[09:49] <sandhya> rww: I've messaged you the link
[09:49] <CrownAmbassador> IchiFish: that command doesnt return anything. Hardy live CD works perfectly in it and I has windows installed last week (just for a day don't worry hehe) and it worked. It stopped the moment I changed to ibex
[09:49] <dayo_> .
[09:50] <IchiFish> CrownAmbassador: ah, I see
[09:50] <xxCody> Rudd-O , how do i enable desktop afects.
[09:50] <dayo_> can anyone one recommend a good external harddisk that works well with ubuntu?
[09:50] <kj4> hello all.
[09:50] <xxCody> miranda_psi how do i do it through synaptic.
[09:50] <rww> sandhya: hmm. Does it work in your browser or is it broken there too?
[09:50] <Rudd-O> xxCody: in one of the preferences menu
[09:50] <Rudd-O> I think appearance
[09:50] <kj4> dayo_ any one I've had always works well
[09:50] <xxCody> Im in appearance.
[09:50] <dayo_> kj4: USB?
[09:50] <xxCody> The only thing for visualis Non Normal and Extra.
[09:51] <xxCody> I have Extra ticked.
[09:51] <kj4> yes, and a firewire one I have
[09:51] <xxCody> But it does not give me an option.
[09:51] <dayo_> kj4: ok, thanks!
[09:51] <xxCody> For Cube.
[09:51] <nandu> Hi every one
[09:51] <rww> !ccsm | xxCody: to enable the compiz cube, use ccsm
[09:52] <``dacium> Hi, can someone pls help. I am trying to set a varible in a .sh shell script, for example i do:   MYVAR=FOO  , but when the .sh file finishes and i type echo $MYVAR it gives nothing?
[09:52] <sandhya> rww: It's fine in firefox.. broken in Opera (the player works fine, but no video)
[09:52] <nandu> I am not able  to ssh & https access to my one server, then I have restart that server
[09:52] <xxCody> rww , thanks
[09:52] <sandhya> rww: I can't get full screen in either browser though
[09:52] <miranda_psi> xxCody: search for compiz in synaptic and install the settings manager - it will allow you to add and remove various effects and configure how they work
[09:52] <rww> ``dacium: that's intended behavior, I think. Try asking in #bash.
[09:53] <pejay> ``dacium: You need to export the variable for it to be accessable outside a script
[09:53] <pejay> export MYVAR=foo;
[09:53] <sandhya> rww: actually, I can get full screen in FF.. but it's laggy
[09:53] <pejay> or, when you run the script do:
[09:53] <pejay> source ./script.sh
[09:53] <IchiFish> pejay: dammit, it's embarressing that I've been linux that long and didn't know that that's how it worked
[09:53] <pejay> np :)
[09:54] <nandu> then swa follwing error " ata: translatted ata start error 0xd0/00 to SCSI SK/ASC/ASCQ 0xb/47/00" can any one tell me what this error stands for & what is the solution.
[09:54] <IchiFish> pejay: thanks, anyway :)
[09:54] <rww> sandhya: try opening the flv in Totem Movie Player. Does it work there?
[09:54] <kj4> ls
[09:54] <kj4> ls
[09:54] <kj4> ls
[09:55] <FloodBot2> kj4: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:56] <stephan> does ennyone know how to use 'adept manager' ?????
[09:56] <rww> !anyone | stephan
[09:56] <sandhya> rww: this is KDE - I have kaffeine and dragon player. Doesn't work on either
[09:56] <stephan> how does adept manager work???
[09:57] <nandu> If restart my server then I got this error " ata: translatted ata start error 0xd0/00 to SCSI SK/ASC/ASCQ 0xb/47/00" can any one tell me what this error stands for & what is the solution.
[09:57] <stephan> can annyone tell me how adept manager works???
[09:57] <bazhang> stephan, sure
[09:57] <rww> sandhya: ah. I don't use KDE, so I'm not sure how to configure those programs. If nobody else here knows, try asking in #kubuntu; more people there use KDE.
[09:57] <bazhang> stephan, its a front end for apt
[09:57] <sandhya> stephan: I believe adept is for Kubuntu and Synaptic for Ubuntu... I might be wrong
[09:57] <sellyoursoul> i can't write to my external drive (ntfs).  it auto mounts fine, ntfs-3g is installed, ntfs-config is installed and write support has been enabled.  any ideas?
[09:57] <nandu> can any one help me.
[09:58] <IchiFish> !anyone | nandu
[09:58] <sandhya> rww: will do - thanks.
[09:58] <bazhang> stephan, so you can sudo apt-get install packagename for example from the terminal (cli)
[09:58] <stephan> and how do i do that?
[09:58] <rww> sellyoursoul: Take a look in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions , specifically https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions#%3Coption%3E%20example
[09:58] <stephan> um new whit ubuntu
[09:58] <stephan> ore enny linux platform
[09:59] <sellyoursoul> rww:  i'll check it out
[09:59] <bazhang> stephan, you can also manually change your repos at /etc/apt/sources.list though synaptic / adept make it much easier
[09:59] <bazhang> stephan, lenny?
[09:59] <stephan> oke ill try that
[09:59] <stephan> thanks
[09:59] <rww> bazhang: I think he meant "any"
[09:59] <bazhang> stephan, you are using ubuntu or debian
[10:00] <stephan> ubuntu
[10:00] <DJJeff> hurray.... finally can join up
[10:00] <DJJeff> without getting booted
[10:00] <bazhang> stephan, just open a terminal and apt-cache search packagename/related term
[10:00] <stephan> oke i'll try that
[10:01] <stephan> thanks
[10:01] <sandhya> stephan: look for guides on the net
[10:01] <``dacium> Thx guys. Seems there are many answers, EXPORT, . file.sh instead of ./file.sh etc. etc.
[10:01] <sandhya> stuff like http://www.pseudorant.com/how-to-install-programs-in-kubuntu-linux/
[10:01] <brunner> hmm
[10:01] <brunner> Could not install 'linux-image-2.6.27-9-generic'
[10:01] <DJJeff> whats a great package to show what hardware I have... IE (Sound, Video NIC) etc
[10:01] <brunner> subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
[10:01] <brunner> what's that about?
[10:01] <sandhya> stephan: you shouldn't need to use the terminal ever :)
[10:01] <rww> DJJeff: lshw, lspci, lsusb
[10:01] <DJJeff> UBUNTU 8.10
[10:01] <Rudd-O> DJJeff: kde control center (systemsettings), information panels
[10:01] <Rudd-O> also
[10:01] <sandhya> stephan: there are a number of guides like that around the place
[10:02] <Rudd-O> hal-device-manager
[10:02] <DJJeff> for gnome?
[10:02] <Rudd-O> yea hdm is for gnome
[10:02]  * sandhya thanks rww and everybody else for their help! ciao!

[10:03] <DJJeff> wine is still beta pretty much
[10:03] <rww> brunner: issue "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get upgrade" in a terminal. If you get errors, paste the /entire/ output of those two commands to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and say the newly-created paste link here.
[10:03] <rebel_gui> my tty's lock up once in a while, its extremely irritating because i have to kill all the processes in it to get it back and i lose anything i was working on, is there a way to fix this little bug
[10:03] <bazhang> stephan, check out the ubuntu wiki
[10:03] <bazhang> stephan, and one other set of links

[10:04] <tsairox> hi all, i just installed ubuntu 8.10.  My lcd hdtv is a Samsung 40" ln40a5503p3fxza with an nvidia GeForce 5500.  My resolution doesn't go above 640 x 480. Here is my xorg.conf file pastebin.com/m624c79b5.  Can anyone help me?
[10:04] <Rudd-O> rebel_gui: maybe they lock up when they try to make a sound.  that happens to me when knotify4 is AWOL and I backspace too much in konsole.
[10:05] <d-b-a> hi i'm confused
[10:05] <rebel_gui> Rudd-O, that would explain it, any suggestions (i dont need sound in that tty)
[10:05] <d-b-a> in debian there is non-free in ubuntu i can't tell if the fglrx xorg drive is free or not
[10:05] <d-b-a> could some one tell me ?
[10:05] <Myrtti> d-b-a: what do you mean with "free"
[10:06] <brunner> how do I figure out what version I'm running?
[10:06] <d-b-a> um open source
[10:06] <Myrtti> brunner: of ubuntu?
[10:06] <Flannel> d-b-a: packages in main and universe are "free", from multiverse and restricted "non-free"
[10:06] <rww> d-b-a: fglrx, and all other packages in the restricted repository are non-free. Same with the multiverse repository.
[10:06] <Myrtti> brunner: lsb_release -a
[10:06] <friedtofu> isnt fglrx the proprietary drivers?
[10:06] <friedtofu> *arent
[10:06] <rww> friedtofu: fglrx is the non-free ATI driver, yes
[10:06] <Rudd-O> rebel_gui: not sure, honestly not sure, sometimes apps playing sound against pulseaudio fail
[10:06] <brunner> Myrtti: thanks
[10:07] <d-b-a> um you realise the description of the package does not say it is non-free
[10:07] <rebel_gui> Rudd-O, i got rid of pulse a long time ago
[10:07] <Rudd-O> rebel_gui: oy then I'm out of ideas
[10:07] <Rudd-O> gotta go
[10:07] <d-b-a> i'm calling this a bug
[10:09] <rww> Heh. Are packages in restricted and multiverse supposed to say in their description that they're non-free? I've never heard that before =/
[10:09] <nandu> ubottu; u know the solution of my question?
[10:10] <aprilhare> ubotto, quit
[10:11] <rww> aprilhare, quit
[10:14] <gidna> why Do I receive this error: http://rafb.net/p/s9EX2M38.html ?
[10:15] <rww> gidna: try "sudo apt-get -f install" and see if that helps the apache problem. The perl message is because perl is already installed.
[10:17] <WiiW> my ubuntu sending "ssdp:discover" data to 239.255.255.250.1900 erery 3 seconds
[10:17] <BlackDalek> If I have a music CD with all tracks saved as a single mp3 file, what program should I use to split the file back into tracks or separate mp3 files?
[10:18] <rprettyman> audacity
[10:18] <WiiW> how to config the services whitch case my ubuntu sending "ssdp:discover" data to 239.255.255.250.1900 erery 3 seconds
[10:19] <bonhoffer> i want to grep an entire directory, e.g. grep -R "foo" *, but i want to exclude the log directory --  is there an easy switch for this
[10:19] <bonhoffer> the log subdirectory . . .
[10:20] <lesshaste> hi
[10:21] <rww> !hi | lesshaste
[10:21] <rprettyman> bonhoffer: --exclude, read man grep
[10:21] <BlackDalek> Is there some function in audacity which will automatically locate the silence gaps between each track in the mp3 and allow me to save out tracks to separate files?
[10:21] <bonhoffer> rprettyman, got it
[10:21] <lesshaste> thanks rww
[10:21] <milligan_> Connecting an iPhone to my machine, ubuntu grabs the device and recognizes it as a camera before vmware gets the chance to capture it. How can I make ubuntu ignore the device, so that vmware can get it ?
[10:21] <lesshaste> BlackDalek, a good question :)
[10:21] <lesshaste> milligan_, is this via usb?
[10:21] <rprettyman> BlackDalek: Their should be
[10:22] <milligan_> lesshaste, yes
[10:22] <lesshaste> milligan_, I vaguely remember there is just an option for this in the vmware config
[10:22] <WiiW> milligan_: vbox is better
[10:22] <bonhoffer> rprettyman, i am trying grep -R  --exclude-dir=[log|.svn] "foo" *
[10:22] <rprettyman> BlackDalek: Quick google got this might help ? http://audacity.sourceforge.net/manual-1.2/tutorial_ed_beginner3.html
[10:22] <rprettyman> bonhoffer: what i sthe naming convention on the logs
[10:22] <bonhoffer> but getting an error -- how do i exclude all log and .svn directories
[10:22] <BlackDalek> I am looking at it now... I haven't used it much. It is doing "silence finder" now...
[10:23] <milligan_> lesshaste, there is an option to mount usb .. but the device isn't found, because ubuntu "takes" it.
[10:23] <bonhoffer> log/ directory
[10:23] <milligan_> WiiW, irrelevant to my problem :)
[10:23] <lesshaste> milligan_, I understand.. i had the same problem before
[10:23] <lesshaste> milligan_, go to #vmware and ask
[10:23] <rprettyman> bonhoffer: --exclude-dir=LOGDLL
[10:23] <lesshaste> milligan_, someone there will have a better memory :)
[10:23] <rprettyman> bonhoffer:*DIR
[10:24] <bobslaede> anybody with info on samba4 and active directory support?
[10:24] <bonhoffer> rprettyman, thanks
[10:24] <rprettyman> bobslaede: yes, client or server
[10:24] <bobslaede> rprettyman: client, for windows server 2008
[10:24] <Deany> with vmware tools installed and your having your vm in focus should be enough
[10:24] <rprettyman> bobslaede: Likewise, google it, or synaptic or apt-cache search likewise
[10:25] <bobslaede> rprettyman: synaptic is out of the question, they made me switch to vista :(
[10:25] <rprettyman> bobslaede: works great even supports NFS or AFS home directories, i'm using it at work in an Andrew/Windows enviroment
[10:25] <bobslaede> i need linux back
[10:26] <bobslaede> rprettyman: i'll read up on it, if it can work, they have to excuse to make me use vista
[10:26] <rprettyman> rprettyman: are you trying to get a linux box in a AD enviroment or a Windows box in a SambaAD enviroment
[10:26] <bobslaede> rprettyman: linux box in AD
[10:26] <bobslaede> rprettyman: they run vista only here at work, and i used to use ubuntu, now they've put vista on my box
[10:26] <rprettyman> bobslaede: yes google open likewise, works great, I had the same problem with deleteing vista at work
[10:27] <bobslaede> rprettyman: because of windows 2008 and AD
[10:27] <rprettyman> bobslaede: make sure you authenticate against the full dns name and not the winbind name and you shouldn't have any problems
[10:28] <bobslaede> rprettyman: i will bring my laptop from home and try it out :)
[10:28] <Deany> there was a guide on libernix some time ago
[10:28] <suji> how to save in vim command
[10:29] <Deany> go search
[10:29] <WiiW> help, whitch service can I config to fix this http://pastie.org/366545
[10:29] <oCean_> suji: :w
[10:30] <quibbler> suij,
[10:30] <Deany> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-integrate-windows-active-directory-and-samba-in-ubuntu.html    and  http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-add-ubuntu-804-to-win-server-2003-active-directory-domain.html
[10:30] <suji> i open a file using vim command, edit somthing then how i save it
[10:30] <quibbler> suij, http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/vimcheat.html
[10:30] <bobslaede> Deany: thank you
[10:30] <dnyy> Anyone here build their own packages? I need help with the dependencies part. :x
[10:31] <bobslaede> Deany: they changed kerberos and AD from 2003 to 2008
[10:31] <WiiW> suji: type :w
[10:31] <werdnum> bobslaede: what about CE?
[10:31] <bobslaede> werdnum: CE?
[10:31] <werdnum> Well, you talked about AD 2003
[10:32] <oCean_> suji: vim knows 2 modes. Editing mode (which lets you insert text) and command mode (in editing mode, hit <esc> and use commands, like :w to save and :x to save and quit)
[10:32] <werdnum> so I'm assuming you do CE as well.
[10:32] <werdnum> .. bad pun.
[10:32] <bobslaede> werdnum: i dont think i got that pun :P
[10:32] <werdnum> AD/BC, CE/BCE
[10:33] <bobslaede> werdnum: ah! ha :P
[10:33] <the6step> I have a question.... trying to do apt-get install build-essentials
[10:33] <the6step> except I want to download it, not get it from cdrom
[10:33] <the6step> but shell can't get it through it's thick head
[10:33] <wet> Do I need any special codec in order to play .mid format in hardy?
[10:33] <SlimeyPete> the6step: you need to edit the repositories
[10:33] <the6step> how do I download this?
[10:34] <the6step> SlimeyPete: ??
[10:34] <rconan> anyone know why I no longer get a console after pressing Ctrl-Alt-F1?
[10:34] <SlimeyPete> the6step: which you do either in Synaptic -> "Manage Repositories" or by editing /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:34] <SlimeyPete> the6step: you need to remove/disable the CDROM repositories and enable/add some internet repositories
[10:35] <SlimeyPete> then tell synaptic/apt-get to refresh the package lists
[10:36] <the6step> SlimeyPete: looks like it's doing the trick, thank you
[10:36] <the6step> that was extremely aggravating
[10:37] <sellyoursoul> i shouldn't have an entry in fstab for my external hdd (ntfs), right?  where is write permission set for external drives then?
[10:38] <Deany> mtab
[10:38] <Deany> its an automatic thing.
[10:38] <Deany> you can set in fstab to override tho
[10:39] <sellyoursoul> will setting write permission in fstab have any negative effect?
[10:39] <sellyoursoul> i'm scurd
[10:40] <Deany> if you remove some files and folders yes
[10:41] <sellyoursoul> that's what i want to do.  move files and folders back and forth between drives.
[10:41] <Deany> paste the line (not the whole fstab) just the line for your ntfs
[10:41] <sellyoursoul> there's no entry for it in fstab
[10:41] <s0undt3ch> hello ppl
[10:41] <Deany> install ntfs-3g then
[10:41] <sellyoursoul> it is installed
[10:42] <Deany> its external?  should be automatically set to rw
[10:42] <s0undt3ch> can anyone tell me why the hell installing libapache2-mod-wsgi requires libmysqlclient15off and mysql-common?
[10:42] <sellyoursoul> automatically set in mtab?
[10:42] <Deany> ubuntu uses ntfs-3g to mount externals
[10:42] <Deany> least it does on mine, with rw
[10:43] <rww> !midi | wet
[10:43] <Deany> /dev/sda2 /mnt/WindowsNTFS ntfs-3g quiet,defaults,rw 0 0      or similar
[10:43] <sellyoursoul> it mounts and i can read and copy files from it
[10:43] <sellyoursoul> i just can't copy fes to it.
[10:43] <Deany> dev and mountpoint of your choice
[10:43] <sellyoursoul> files
[10:43] <quibbler> sellyoursoul, install ntfs-config and you can set or reset write permissions
[10:44] <BenB_> Does anybody here have an account on an Exchange server? maybe even 2007? I'll be working on a TB feature and need to test with it.
[10:44] <sellyoursoul> quibbler:  i have
[10:44] <rww> s0undt3ch: Which version of Ubuntu are you using?
[10:44] <sellyoursoul> xubuntu 8.04
[10:44] <sellyoursoul> sorry
[10:45] <BenB_> where TB = Thunderbird
[10:45] <suji> how to uninstall a program using command
[10:45] <rww> suji: sudo apt-get purge packagename
[10:45] <SlimeyPete> suji: apt-get remove packagename
[10:45] <rprettyman> suji: apt-get remove package
[10:46] <SlimeyPete> e.g. "apt-get remove kopete" to remove the package called "kopete"
[10:46] <SlimeyPete> oh, and you'll need to use sudo. "sudo apt-get remove kopete"
[10:46] <suji> kk i use sudo only do that thank u
[10:47] <rww> s0undt3ch: because as far as I can see, neither libapache2-mod-wsgi nor any of the packages it depends on depend on mysql-common or libmysqlclient15off
[10:49] <imagodei> aloha, people
[10:50] <ubuuser> Hello together
[10:50] <imagodei> i've a question about installing packages
[10:50] <imagodei> in fact, how do I know which package to choose
[10:50] <ubuuser> do you speak german or english here ?
[10:50] <rww> ubuuser: English only in this channel, German only in #ubuntu-de
[10:50] <rww> imagodei: Well, what are you trying to install?
[10:51] <imagodei> i'm trying to install XEN enabled kernel on ubuntu 8.04 server
[10:51] <ubuuser> i have an problem with my installation from LTSP
[10:51] <imagodei> and with apt-cahce search xen I get dozens of results
[10:51] <imagodei> and i'm lost
[10:51] <rprettyman> apt-cache search xen | grep image |grep `uname -r`
[10:52] <ubuuser> pxe boot does not work
[10:52] <rww> imagodei: linux-image-xen, probably, but I don't use xen so I'm not sure
[10:52] <imagodei> yeah, but there's ubuntu-xen-server, too
[10:53] <imagodei> rprettyman, I'm newb so bare with me... What does that do?
[10:53] <imagodei> I mean
[10:53] <imagodei> I know
[10:53] <imagodei> but as a result
[10:54] <ubuuser> Can somebody help me to find the error ?
[10:54] <rww> imagodei: oh, wait, l-i-xen isn't available in 8.04.
[10:55] <hm1> i am looking for a theme like "human" but with colors (maybe just gray) for inactive window title bars - the standard theme makes inactive windows look "flat", because it draws the title bars in the same color as the window color. i have been looking for a while now and cant find any. i would be very happy about a link or a hint, where i can get such a theme.
[10:55] <rww> imagodei: looks like, since you're using hardy, you should install ubuntu-xen-server. You can read the package description at http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/ubuntu-xen-server
[10:56] <Arney> Hey, I wish to receive Email notification when ever a word appears on a website
[10:56] <Arney> I mean on a specific page
[10:56] <imagodei> rww, oh cool
[10:56] <rprettyman> imagodei: apt-cache search xen (search for xen) | (pipe out to ) grep image (only show result that include the frace or word image) | (pipe to ) grep `uname -r` (ticks tell it to execute uname -r give the kernel version you currently have with tell it to only show results with the current kernel version)
[10:56] <Arney> does anyone know of a way I could I achieve this?
[10:56] <pejay> Arney: Setup a cron job with a little bash script
[10:56] <pejay> Something like:
[10:56] <hm1> Arney: you'd need a bot, that scans the page over and over again
[10:57] <Arney> arg, no I don't want to run a program
[10:57] <AdvoWork> is there a way i can mount an external HD thats on UFS in ubuntu?
[10:57] <pejay> if [ $(curl http://www.bbc.co.uk | grep -i obama) ]; then
[10:57] <hm1> Arney: if the page doesnt offer such a function, you need the bot
[10:57] <pejay> sendmail me@me.com <<<
[10:57] <pejay> To: blah@blah.com
[10:57] <pejay> Subject: EMAIL ME!
[10:57] <Arney> I want a web service that does that, or better yet a php script that searches a site for a word and returns an RSS feed
[10:57] <pejay> etc etc etc
[10:58] <hm1> Arney: can you write php?
[10:58] <Arney> ya
[10:58] <pejay> Should be very easy with PHP
[10:58] <pejay> just file_get_contents($website_url)
[10:58] <pejay> and use string matching functions to check
[10:58] <pejay> eg stristr()
[10:59] <Arney> hum... that's not a bad idea
[10:59] <cheper> there is a French IRc for ubuntu
[10:59] <imagodei> rww, rprettyman, ubuntu-xen-server seems fine. But as a concept, how do I tell which one is correct and/or why are there several other packages. Like packages with kernel names
[10:59] <hm1> Arney:  http://li.php.net/manual/de/function.fopen.php
[10:59] <pejay> file_get_contents would be easier, it reads the contents of a file or URL straight into a variable
[10:59] <jandro> hi
[10:59] <Arney> I was thinking more of making it return results to an rss file with the text sorrounding it as an entry
[11:00] <Arney> hard to decide on which would be better
[11:00] <Arney> well I have a weexend prokect in my hands...
[11:00] <hm1> Arney: pejay's method looks quite cool. i had problems with some web servers, that didnt allow me to access external pages. this is the only diffulty
[11:01] <Arney> my webserver is cool with that
[11:01] <imagodei> rww, rprettyman, Or, for instance, could I install kernel, hypervisor and tools separately and perhaps mess up things?
[11:01] <Arney> I actually made a script to call a page 10K times to fool a download counter
[11:02] <Arney> the host dint complain after running it 20 times
[11:02] <rprettyman> imagodei: depending on what you want, each one is a different package or kernel, you can only run one kernel at a time and ubuntu automaticly updates your bootloader so in theory you can install several kernel with out much hard, its just a hasle and posibily dangerous to your system and to bounce between them depending on what modules your using and how you installed them
[11:02] <hm1> Arney: what i meant is, either you can read in http stuff or not. if it works, then you just get the html and search it for the string you are looking for.
[11:03] <pejay> preg_match_all
[11:03] <pejay> :)
[11:03] <Arney> what I mean is, I can read http stuff...
[11:03] <hm1> Arney: then go for it. 10 lines of code.
[11:03] <Arney> I gotto go to school...
[11:03] <Arney> in 50 mins
[11:03] <pejay> That's 5mins per line of code
[11:03] <Arney> wth ill do it
[11:03] <pejay> You'll be fine
[11:03] <pejay> :)
[11:03] <pejay> :P
[11:03] <FloodBot2> pejay: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:03] <oCean_> !who
[11:04] <hm1> how can i make inactive window bars darker than the window color with the "human" theme?
[11:04] <imagodei> rprettyman, hmmm, I find package descriptions lacking clarity. Or perhaps it's just me being newbie
[11:04] <Arney> php has no built in rss facilities...
[11:05] <Arney> ima snach a scirpt from.. http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=32265
[11:05] <imagodei> rprettyman, for instance, how do I know which kernel gets installed if I install ubuntu-xen-server package?
[11:05] <rprettyman> imagodei: you can get a better description here http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[11:06] <hm1> Arney: rss is easy to create. you just have to write to a file with the correct tags. http://www.w3schools.com/rss/rss_channel.asp
[11:06] <hipitihop> I have a laptop with fresh up to date intrepid that worked perfectly. After xserver restart it now won't respond to built in keyboard or mouse pad, external usb mouse or an external usb keyboard. someone have any pointers ?
[11:06] <Arney> hm1 the thing is a need a php script to generate that file
[11:07] <hm1> arney: thats trivial
[11:07] <lanoxx-> hi there, does anyone know how good syncing a windows mobile device with ubuntu works?
[11:07] <rprettyman> imagodei:on intrepid it looks like linux-image-server 	 (= 2.6.27.9.13)
[11:07] <lamba> what would be the correct way to apt-pin a repository which is local (given as deb file:/dir/path in sources file), i want any debs in that dir to override any other source
[11:07] <imagodei> rprettyman, thanks.
[11:08] <hipitihop> I can boot from desktop livecd and everything is fine. what setting should I go looking at ?
[11:08] <rprettyman> imageodei: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/ubuntu-xen-server ubuntu-xen-server just installs several packages listed here
[11:08] <Koordin> hi, how can i know the packages that are never used in order to free some space ?
[11:09] <AdvoWork> ive managed to mount a UFS external HD in ubuntu, but am i right in thinking you cant stop it being read only? as im getting: mv: cannot remove `links.txt': Read-only file system
[11:09] <veloc1ty> Koordin, tried sudo apt-get autoremove ?
[11:09] <imagodei> rprettyman, oh I see.. The ones with red circle get installed? (Depends)
[11:09] <veloc1ty> that will remove unused packages and their dependencies
[11:09] <rprettyman> imagodei: yes
[11:09] <Putra_cute_abs> hai
[11:09] <imagodei> rprettyman, thanks a bunch
[11:09] <ickis> Do I need to install bind9 to set up the hosting of my domain or just point the dns-server to my own static ip?
[11:10] <rprettyman> imageodei: if you look at the list of files that package actualy is empty is just installs those other packages as dependencies
[11:10] <rprettyman> ickis: you don't need bind, just point
[11:10] <imagodei> rprettyman, where do I see that list?
[11:11] <hipitihop> where do I look to see why a previously working install no longer responds to keyboard or mouse ?
[11:11] <ickis> and what if I also need to set up the mailserver
[11:11] <ickis> ?
[11:11] <rprettyman> ickis: your server hostname is overruled by the ip that the dns resolves to it, and bind would do nothing in your case
[11:11] <imagodei> rprettyman, found it... On the bottom
[11:11] <rprettyman> ickis: that would be handled by the dns server as a mail name
[11:12] <ickis> so when should I use bind?
[11:12] <rprettyman> ickis: when you get your own isp or when you have multiple servers being resolved by dns records in a large domain
[11:12] <vette> hi all.. i have a cdma pcmcia card that I want to install in my laptop running intrepid - need help
[11:13] <imagodei> rprettyman, so as a concept, whenever installing any package, it may take some researching...
[11:13] <hm1> i use bind as a local dns-cache. without bind (dhcp telling my clients the address of the ISP's DNS server), every resolving takes much longer
[11:13] <ickis> ok, thanks a lot
[11:13] <Koordin> yes veloc1ty i know ; but there are packages that are considered as used by apt-get but that i don't use
[11:13] <ickis> now I'll see how to configure Apache to serve different applications
[11:13] <Donfuria> umm....why is it that I just downloaded the ubuntu ISO but it doesn't fit on a 700 MB disc?
[11:14] <rprettyman> imagodei: at first but your figure it out more as you go along their are some conventions what did you need the xen kernel for, have you considered using a normal virtualization server like vmware or virtualbox instead of xen
[11:14] <hm1> Donfuria: how large is the iso file?
[11:14] <Donfuria> It's 698 MB
[11:14] <hm1> Donfuria: maybe you already wrote data to the disc before? (multisession thingy)
[11:14] <Donfuria> but Nero (shame on me for using it) tells me it needs more
[11:15] <vette> any help with setting up pcmcia intrepid installation?
[11:15] <Donfuria> hm1 just unwrapped my cd
[11:15] <imagodei> rprettyman, I am an admin in a firm, working primarily with Microsoft platform, but I'm trying out linux and I want to learn about XEN :)
[11:16] <hm1> Donfuria: sounds strange. maybe your nero doesnt feel well today. try another software, you can get a portable burning software on www.portableapps.com
[11:16] <pejay> imagodei: welcome to the dark side!
[11:16] <imagodei> pejay, so far so good. I like ubuntu
[11:16] <shauno> Donfuria: you may need to look around for an overburn option.  if CDs use the same 1,000,000 logic that harddrives do, 698Mb is going to be too big
[11:16] <IndyGunFreak> Donfuria: nero sucks, google "How to burn an ISO", and the first link that comes up, has instructions on how to do it w/ several freeware apps.
[11:16] <pejay> imagodei: Our manager has specifically asked us to stop showing the windows admins stuff
[11:16] <Donfuria> hm1; just saw the back of my cd and it looks like something actually IS written on it
[11:16] <pejay> imagodei: because they end up not wanting to do windows admin anymore :)
[11:16] <Donfuria> so I'm trying again with another disc
[11:17] <imagodei> pejay, except at home, I can't get WiFi NIC to work. It's broadcom chipset, bcm4306 and I just can't figure it out
[11:17] <Donfuria> looks like its working, thanks anyway
[11:17] <imagodei> pejay, hehe
[11:17] <hm1> Donfuria: yw
[11:18] <Donfuria> it's burning already
[11:18] <Kartagis> hello
[11:18] <Kartagis> is it true that vmware server 1.6 takes less RAM than 2.0?
[11:18] <vette> pl.. any help here?
[11:18] <IndyGunFreak> imagodei: have you read the wiki?.. the broadcom devices are apparently much easier w/ 8.10 (thats just m understanding)
[11:19] <Donfuria> now while I'm here, I've got feisty fawn installed on my other partition but somethings terribly wrong with it so that's why I'm going to make a clean install... How would you guys advise me to do it?
[11:19] <rprettyman> imagodei: oh, it seems to be getting fairly popular
[11:19] <Deany> Kartagis, vbox takes less :)
[11:19] <Koordin> why does apt-get keep the packages linux-generic of the later versions ?
[11:19] <imagodei> IndyGunFreak, hmmm. I think I have 8.10 at home.
[11:19] <hm1> Donfuria: i would simply reformat the partition
[11:19] <hm1> Donfuria: from within the boot cd
[11:19] <imagodei> rprettyman: what is? Linux?
[11:19] <IndyGunFreak> imagodei: well, its hard to help when you're not in front of the machine
[11:19] <Donfuria> hm1: That's an option on the livecd right?
[11:19] <Donfuria> oh rite
[11:19] <robin0800> imagodei: if theres no linux driver you can always use a windows one with a wrapper
[11:20] <Donfuria> robin0800 stop cursing
[11:20] <Kartagis> Deany, vbox doesn't work properly for me
[11:20] <hm1> Donfuria: i dont know the wizards... i always do the partitioning manually. if you know, what partitioning means, its an easy task
[11:20] <ubuuser> Somebody some experience with LTSP pxe-boot ?
[11:20] <IndyGunFreak> robin0800: i dn't believe that works so well w/ the broadcom devices, because of the firmware upgrade required, not sure though
[11:20] <imagodei> robin0800: ?
[11:20] <Deany> Kartagis, shame.  maybe i can help.
[11:20] <vette> any help with pcmcia and intrepid????
[11:20] <imagodei> i feel like a little girl, when it comes to linux
[11:21] <rprettyman> imagodei: XEN, it seems to be gaining popularity, were still using vmware here
[11:21] <robin0800> imagodei: have you tried?
[11:21] <imagodei> I now know how our secretary feels like, when I try to explain some Windows stuff to her, hehe
[11:21] <Donfuria> hm1: There's a partition of about 10gb but they do contain some old kernels.. Ur saying I can format the partition with the livecd rite?
[11:21] <Arney> h1m I got the rss working
[11:21] <hm1> vette: if nobody answers here, it probably means, they dont know how to do it. did you try the ubuntu forums already? i assume, there would be a tutorial for pcmcia
[11:21] <Arney> http://oldarney.com/Makerss.php
[11:21] <imagodei> rprettyman, yeah. I like oss
[11:21] <hm1> Donfuria: yes
[11:22] <Arney> now to get the searching on..
[11:22] <Arney> I might just make a full webservice by the end of the week
[11:22] <oCean_> !who > Arney
[11:22] <Arney> none other exist...
[11:23] <imagodei> rprettyman, plus I tried out ESXi server, and it just won't recognise the network. No console, if I understand correctly, so there's nothing to configure. I deleted it and installed ubuntu server, now trying to install XEN
[11:23] <Donfuria> ok it's done...should the livecd boot automatically?
[11:23] <IndyGunFreak> Arney: also not hitting enter every 3 words is helpful, it causes unecessary scrolling in an already busy channel.
[11:23] <vette> yes. looked every where - hoped to find some help here :( thnx tho'
[11:23] <IndyGunFreak> Donfuria: if its done right, have you never installed ubuntu before?
[11:23] <Kartagis> Deany, for starters, vbox didn't recognize my laptop numeric keys when installing windows in it
[11:23] <szer0> hey i this problem Ubuntu 8.10 every now and again X crashes and all that shows in the log is this http://pastebin.ca/1314554 Does anyone know what might be wrong?
[11:23] <Donfuria> yes I have but it's been 2 years ago IndyGunFreak
[11:23] <imagodei> robin0800, tried what? Wrapper for win driver?
[11:24] <IndyGunFreak> oh... like riding a bike.
[11:24] <hm1> Arney: you will want to have a RSS icon in the address bar of the browser, too. this is done with a tag in the <head> section, like <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="the cybernaut" href="http://harald.ist.org/weblog/weblog.xml">
[11:24] <Donfuria> ok, I'm gonna try it, I'll report if it worked afterwards
[11:24] <rprettyman> imagodei: yes ESXi has limited hardware support, probably because of their size constrant goals, but xen seems to have some trouble with windows vm's, but i'd imagine if you were strickly using it for unix/linux vm's it would be fairly solid
[11:24] <Arney> ok, I almost forgot what it was to be in a a channel with under 5000 people, jk. cool, thanks hm1
[11:24] <dayo_> does anyone have any experience with this ext hdd on ubuntu: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2334493,00.asp
[11:25] <hagrch> thank you.
[11:25] <phimic> hi all
[11:25] <pejay> HI!
[11:25] <IndyGunFreak> dayo_: i have 3, they all work fine... but whats your question?
[11:25] <phimic> can someone help me with the networkmanager
[11:25] <rprettyman> phimic: ?
[11:26] <phimic> i get device is not managed
[11:26] <hagrch> phimic: maybe.
[11:26] <monzie> sabdfl
[11:26] <phimic> i have ubuntu 8.10 fresh install
[11:26] <rprettyman> phimic: open up console type ifconfig
[11:26] <rprettyman> phimic: wireless or wired
[11:26] <robin0800> imagodei: ndiswrapper
[11:26] <phimic> rprettyman: wired
[11:26] <powner> is ratpoison supposed to default to x-terminal-emulator?
[11:26] <pejay> phimic: Paste output of: cat /etc/network/interfaces  | grep auto
[11:26] <dayo_> IndyGunFreak: i'm about to order for one, but my colleague said "Seagate's been doing some funny stuff with Ubuntu."
[11:27] <rprettyman> phimic: yeah go ahead and try "ifconfig | grep eth0"
[11:27] <mick02> Alright folks, anyone know how to pass logon username and password credentials to a telnet session?
[11:27] <phimic> auto lo
[11:27] <phimic> auto eth0
[11:27] <imagodei> robin0800, yeah, I feel like a little lost girl, right :D
[11:27] <powner> mick02, when it's asked, supply it
[11:27] <rprettyman> phimic: sudo dhclient
[11:27] <mick02> Alright folks, anyone know how to pass logon username and password credentials to a telnet session through a script???
[11:27] <IndyGunFreak> dayo_: well i don't knoww hat he means by that, i have a 500gig seagate in my main pc, and my external drives, are 500gig each, 1 Seagate, 2 WD, all work fine
[11:27] <Bogaurd> if I'm running a headless server, do I need consolekit and dbus installed?
[11:27] <phimic> rprettyman: i use static ip
[11:28] <mick02> powner I'm trying to automate the login through a script
[11:28] <rprettyman> phimic: ping -c3 google.com
[11:28] <dayo_> IndyGunFreak: ok cool. i'll go with it, then
[11:28] <dayo_> thank u
[11:28] <powner> telnet doesn't pass credentials on connect
[11:28] <tv7497> guys guys i just downloaded tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run how should i make this run ?
[11:28] <IndyGunFreak> dayo_: the internal seagate, and the external seagate are both sata, while the WDs' are IDE.. don't know i that would make a difference, don't think so though
[11:28] <shauno> mick02: probably with 'expect'.  it's not 'done' to pass them as arguements, as it'll result in the password showing up in the list of running processes
[11:28] <powner> you have to parse their output and send input
[11:28] <rprettyman> phimic: oh "sudo vim /etc/network/interfaces
[11:28] <rprettyman> "
[11:28] <phimic> ok and then
[11:28] <tv7497> guys anyone ?
[11:28] <rprettyman> phimic: scratch that "sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces"
[11:29] <mick02> So there's no way to log on to a telnet session and pass the logon credentials using a script then? Thanks shauno
[11:29] <IndyGunFreak> dayo_: have you looked at tigerdirect or newegg, i bet you can get a better price than that
[11:29] <powner> there is
[11:29] <Donfuria> umm hi, I restarted but just Grub came up and it just booted in ubuntu..
[11:29] <powner> you just have to recognise the last part of the string when it asks for it
[11:30] <mick02> shauno, what about something like this ... sleep 3; echo username; sleep 3; echo password; sleep 5; echo "ls -l"; sleep 3; echo "exit") | telnet hostname
[11:30] <Donfuria> no cd option whatsoever..
[11:30] <rprettyman> phimic: if your using static and no wireless, disable network manager, in gnome, System>Preferences>Session
[11:30] <tv7497> bazhang: sir i just downloaded tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run how should i make this run ?
[11:30] <oCean_> tv7497: use package mgr to install
[11:30] <IndyGunFreak> Donfuria: is your Optical drive set as first in your boot sequence?
[11:30] <imagodei> ok, folks, thanx. bbl
[11:30] <rprettyman> phimic: does the interfaces file have the settings for your adapter?
[11:31] <Donfuria> IndyGunFreak: how do I get into my bios again?
[11:31] <IndyGunFreak> Donfuria: well that i really don't know, most of the time, its either DEL or F1 while the PC is booting
[11:31] <Donfuria> ok, let's try that
[11:31] <oCean_> tv7497: (sudo apt-get install package) is the preferred way. If you really need to run the script you downloaded, make it executbable (chmod +x blah.run) then execute the script ./blah.run
[11:31] <rprettyman> donfuria: restart your computer, del esc f12 f2, hit them all or read the screen for a setup or bios key
[11:31] <hm1> tv7497: the execute bit may not be set. look at the "chmod" command. if youre in a terminal window. you can only call programs, that are in the path. if not in the path, but in you working directory, you need to prepend ./ before the name of the program like me@mypc/~ $ ./PROGNAME
[11:32] <powner> is there another lightweight wm that only uses keybinds other than ratpoison?
[11:35] <ackbahr> Hi! I'm about to reinstall Ubuntu (messed up everything....). What filsystem do you suggest I use?
[11:35] <koshari>  ackbahr ext3
[11:35] <powner> depends on the media and the version imo
[11:35] <erUSUL> powner: there are a few just make a google search and you will find them look http://tuxtraining.com/2008/10/20/an-introduction-to-tiling-window-managers
[11:35] <ackbahr> koshari: What are the advantages over reiserFS?
[11:36] <tv7497> hm1: , oCean_ sir i ran chmod a+x on it and ran it from terminal i get this sir http://122.167.74.216
[11:36] <powner> rofl
[11:36] <koshari> ackbahr its still supported for one.
[11:36] <Guest67219>      /msg nickserv register <jopr3236> <jpr95@ymail.com>
[11:36] <ackbahr> koshari: Good point :)
[11:36] <SlimeyPete> it's also better with small files IIRC
[11:37] <cerberus12345> hello all, is there a virtualbox room on this server?
[11:37] <ackbahr> ok, thanks.... Going to backup all my stuff and reinstall, bye!
[11:37] <hm1> tv7497: i see "[[: not found" - i am not certain, but it looks like there was a if command using [[ instead of [ (which is a link to the "test" program)
[11:38] <tv7497> hm1: it worked sir but how do i join to a server sir ? or how do i play the game ?
[11:38] <hm1> tv7497: sorry, i have no idea
[11:39] <oCean_> tv7497: did you use aptitude to install?
[11:39] <powner> of those tiling window managers, do you have an opinion on which is supported best by ubuntu?  sry new to the distro
[11:40] <tv7497> oCean_: no sir i downloaded it from their website sir any idea how to connect to a server or how to start the game
[11:40] <oCean_> tv7497: No, but i would suggest using apt for installation. (sudo apt-get install package)
[11:40] <Deany> cerberus12345, what do you need to know
[11:40] <yezariael> is it possible to update from 6.04 to 8.04 via a cd? seems like the mirrors are broken and i am unable to update the normal way. every time i want to apt-get install something it says 404 not found
[11:40] <tv7497> oCean_: okie sir
[11:42] <hm1> i would like to get rid of the /home/MYNAME/Documents folder. can i safely delete it?
[11:42] <koshari> yezariael: it may be possable but i wouldnt think your chances off success would be very good.
[11:42] <perlsyntax> Does anyone know hoq to get a sierra wireless air card  881 to work with ubuntu8.10?
[11:42] <koshari> perlsyntax what chipset does it have
[11:42] <perlsyntax> i show you the link
[11:43] <shauno> yezariael: I haven't tried it myself, but have you read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades#Upgrade%20from%206.06%20LTS%20to%208.04%20LTS
[11:43] <X-Seti> hello, just uninstalled wine-doors by error however i have noticed that wine has stopped working also, even after a reinstall?
[11:44] <perlsyntax> http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-phone-service/cell-phone-details/?device=Sierra+Wireless+AirCard+881&q_sku=sku1070083 this is the card i got
[11:44] <perlsyntax> i not sure what the chip is
[11:44] <shauno> yezariael: it does have a 'upgrade using the alternate cd/dvd' section with it, I'm not just trying to be annoying :)
[11:44] <powner> check the pci id on lspci
[11:44] <perlsyntax> koshari,what you think?
[11:44] <wxl> how can i put weather information in conky of ubuntu?
[11:45] <wxl> anybody can help me ?
[11:45] <perlsyntax> ?
[11:45] <yezariael> shauno: wonderful, that should solve my problem. thx a ton.
[11:45] <powner> god might
[11:45] <powner> he can read minds
[11:45] <yezariael> doubt that.
[11:45] <powner> i heard
[11:46] <perlsyntax> koshari, you there?
[11:46] <vette> exit
[11:47] <Ward1983> i do iwlist wlan0 scanning and nothing is found allthought im 100% sure there are networks within range
[11:47] <Ward1983> what do i do next? i dont want to use network-manager
[11:47] <powner> are you in managed mode?
[11:47] <Ward1983> im not sure how to check
[11:47] <perlsyntax> hello
[11:47] <powner> iwconfig says
[11:47] <Ward1983> it allways worked before
[11:47] <Ward1983> powerball,           Mode:Manage
[11:47] <Ward1983> d
[11:48] <perlsyntax> koshari, i not sure where the sim card slot is.
[11:48] <Ward1983> powner, Mode:Managed
[11:48] <perlsyntax> on this one
[11:48] <Ward1983> powerball, sorry wrong highlight
[11:48] <powner> well u got me, i usually just try an rmmod/modprobe after that
[11:48] <Ward1983> powner, will try thanx
[11:48] <perlsyntax> does anyone know is this card will work?
[11:49] <powner> check the dmesg when you do - for any weirdness that may require reboot
[11:49] <white-sheep> Anybody here experienced with LVM?
[11:50] <white-sheep> I'm trying to rename few VG + LV
[11:50] <Ward1983> powner, still nothing :s
[11:51] <Ward1983> powner, its just a RTL8187, allways worked
[11:51] <Commie_Cary> is there a verison of ubuntu for the N810
[11:52] <powner> i do see a related driver issue still marked as new
[11:52] <powner> #286681, scanning fails after first association
[11:52] <oCean_> white-sheep: well, there's vgrename I think
[11:53] <emma> Say you have openoffice running on the windows side of your laptop. Say you have saved openoffice documents on the windows partition. If while booted into Ubuntu you mount the windows partition, can you copy those openoffice documents over to the home directory without compromising them?
[11:54] <powner> do you get "Operation not supported" anywhere
[11:54] <powner> ward1983
[11:54] <achadwick> Commie_Cary: No (IIRC, no ARM ports of any kind). But you have Debian and Android as alternatives. Personally I think OS2008 is fine.
[11:54] <Ward1983> powner, nope
[11:55] <powner> which driver are you using?
[11:55] <Ward1983> achadwick, you can run ubuntu on ARM devices aswell
[11:55] <oCean_> powner: why not using nicks before typing message?
[11:55] <powner> cos i'm a newb
[11:55] <powner> oCean_: =P
[11:56] <powner> oCean_: seems so quiet in here, never figured i'd need it
[11:56] <oCean_> powner: ah well, you seem to get the hang of it :) It makes the channel more readable
[11:57] <pwuertz> any idea why I can't run ssh forwarded X11 applications on a particular machine? I'm getting "Error: Can't open display: localhost:10.0"... I already copied the sshd_config from another working ubuntu machine to the not-working machine but it's still not working...
[11:57] <Ward1983> Commie_Cary, http://leapster.org/linux/armbuntu/
[11:57] <Ward1983> Commie_Cary, dont try it if you are new to linux
[11:57] <achadwick> Commie_Cary, Ward1983: quite so. Ignore me.
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[11:57] <Ward1983> achadwick, no problem its just not widely known
[11:57] <oCean_> pwuertz: type "xhost +" before you start your ssh session
[11:57] <tsairox> anybody here got an hdmi graphics card working?
[11:58] <pwuertz> the DISPLAY string localhost:10.0 seems to be fine, thats what I'm getting an any other remote system
[11:58] <Ward1983> Commie_Cary, debian's ARM port is a better choice though imo, i had that myself on my PDA and it worked very nicely
[11:58] <quibbler> ActionParsnip, ahhh the getto santa, hi
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> guys, if a window of an app is minimised, does the x server still draw it so it is ready for maximisation or is it only drawn when it is maximised?
[11:58] <pwuertz> oCean_: does not fix :/
[11:58] <shams_> hi there
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> hi shams_
[11:59] <shams_> i have some problems with my usb tv tuner Avertv volar ax. My distr is ubuntu 8.10 with kernel 2.6.27-9 on notebook. i can't my tv tuner work it out. Having googled for a week i have no option
[11:59] <shams_> can you help me with this plz
[11:59] <oCean_> oCean_: so you are on DISPLAY 10.0 ?
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> shams_: run lsusb, one line will identify the dvice, websearch for the identifier
[11:59] <onats> how can i burn onto a disc files from a network drive? is that possible?
[11:59] <seravitae> anyone here use bind/named
[11:59] <onats> any program suggestions?
[11:59] <hm1> which program lets me create the entries in /etc/fstab to always mount ntfs drives on boot?
[11:59] <oCean_> pwuertz: i typo'd "you are on display 10.0" ?
[12:00] <oCean_> pwuertz: locally you can start x applications? "e.g. xclock" ?
[12:00] <shams_> AVerMedia Technologies, Inc.
[12:00] <shams_>  no option in google
[12:00] <pwuertz> oCean_: no.. I think thats just the way sshd handles X11 forwards nowdays
[12:00] <pwuertz> sure ^^
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> onats: if you mount the network folder, yes sure
[12:00] <oCean_> pwuertz: no
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> onats: mount it with smbmount then you can access it like any other data on your system
[12:00] <powner> i'm interested in setting a framebuffer background and setting an offset to the text on my console, anyone?
[12:00] <pwuertz> oCean_: locally: DISPLAY=:0.0
[12:00] <prodigel> hi all. I'm searching for a magnification tool that can help me see flash movies in full screen mode. When using flash player maximize functionality it's slow, unwatchable.
[12:01] <oCean_> pwuertz: those are different things. You need to give the (remote) application 'access' to the xclient @your display
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> onats: i'd burn it as slow as you physically can as the data coming over the lan will be hugely slower than the burn so you need to give the data chance to come down the line
[12:01] <onats> ActionParsnip, somethings wrong though.. whenever i navigate into the mounted network drive, brasero/k3b closes/crashes...
[12:01] <powner> i remember seeing a nice gentoo one years ago - something like that - edges of my screen are a bit fuzzy sometimes
[12:01] <oCean_> pwuertz: so that is also your $DISPLAY?
[12:01] <_0x404> how enter to polish channel ??
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> onats: is it mounted with smbmount or do you mean smb://<servername>/<share>

[12:01] <ActionParsnip> _0x404: /join #ubuntu-pl
[12:02] <_0x404> thanks
[12:02] <onats> ActionParsnip, via FTP
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> onats: then its not mounted
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> onats: you need to mount the ftp as a local folder
[12:02] <onats> ActionParsnip, can you point me to the right direction?
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> !mount | onats
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> onats: you could also wesearch: ubuntu mount ftp
[12:03] <jav> I'm trying to connect a SATA disk to my hardy machine ('hotswappping'). It is not popping up as a new /dev/sd* . does any one have any debugging tips?
[12:03] <oCean_> pwuertz: set your $DISPLAY to localhost:0.0, then use "ssh -X" into client machine
[12:03] <Ryan_Delaney> When playing music with foobar2000 in wine, the output sometimes crashes, locking up foobar and leaving behind a repetitive choppy sound that I can't make go away without restarting X. How can I find out what is making this annoying noise so I can make it stop without logging out?
[12:03] <onats> ok thanks.
[12:03] <onats> googling too
[12:03] <ickis> When delegating a domain to my own Ubuntu server, should I repeat the static ip in both dns name and ip?
[12:03] <jav> Ryan_Delaney: have you checked the sampling rate in winecfg?
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> Ryan_Delaney: check the appdb for compatibility, I'd ask in #wine for wine support
[12:04] <jav> Ryan_Delaney: that gave me a similar problem in spotify
[12:04] <harald1> why does it show harald1, when /whois haraldw shows, that it is me?
[12:04] <onats> ActionParsnip, is there a choice on the protocol on how i mount it? i believe SMB is slow?
[12:04] <Ryan_Delaney> jav: No. If that were the problem would it cause it to work 99% of the time with only occasional crashes?
[12:04] <Ryan_Delaney> Jav: Also, in the short term, how can I make this choppy noise go away?
[12:04] <lamba> what would be the correct way to apt-pin a repository which is local (given as deb file:/dir/path in sources file), i want any debs in that dir to override any other source
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> onats: its fine
[12:04] <jav> Ryan_Delaney: Dont know, havn't thorough about it carefully. That's the only tip that hits me.

[12:05] <Ryan_Delaney> jav: It seems to be related to pulse audio since I now can't get sound from any application
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> Ryan_Delaney: restart pulse
[12:05] <powner> kill pulse?
[12:05] <jav> Ryan_Delaney: Maybe experiment with  pasuspend and/or padsp
[12:05] <Ryan_Delaney> How?
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> Ryan_Delaney: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=13412
[12:05] <jrib> lamba: it's probably easier to just list them first in your sources.list and use sane versioning

[12:09] <powner> should return a PID if it is
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> Is mythbuntu an official release??
[12:10] <Ryan_Delaney> The program 'selinuxenabled' is currently not installed.
[12:10] <powner> yea it's not on
[12:10] <powner> exist status 1 means it's off
[12:11] <powner> well you could add yourself to rt-pulse
[12:11] <oCean_> powner: dude..
[12:11] <powner> oCean_: sry XD
[12:11] <jrib> lamba: I don't understand.  What exactly is all scripted?
[12:12] <Ryan_Delaney> What?
[12:12] <jrib> !pinning > lamba, in any case here is the documentation

[12:13] <pozic> ezerhoden: oh, it does work, exactly like I said.
[12:13] <pozic> _Andrew: yes, I just noticed.
[12:13] <powner> do you know the versin of pulseaudio package you are using?
[12:13] <Ryan_Delaney> It would be whichever one is from the ubuntu repos. how can I check?
[12:14] <Ryan_Delaney> manpage says 0.9.5
[12:14] <powner> sounds old to me
[12:14] <powner> fixed in 9.8 in 2007
[12:14] <Ryan_Delaney> sorry?
[12:15] <Ryan_Delaney> maybe that's just the manpage then
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> Ryan_Delaney: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:15] <powner> i fail at debian, i'm a redhat guy XD  here for something else
[12:15] <Ryan_Delaney> okay, $ pulseaudio --version says 0.9.10
[12:15] <Ryan_Delaney> Actionparsnip: thanks, I do that daily
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> Ryan_Delaney: make sure you are fully updated
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> Ryan_Delaney: good, many dont
[12:16] <rmt> Hi, Does Wubi have problems with kernel upgrades from within Ubuntu (& generating a working initrd, I guess) ?
[12:16] <ickis> When delegating a domain to my own Ubuntu server, should I repeat the static ip in both dns name and ip?
[12:17] <hmw> i forgot the name of a very simple tool, that allows ntfs partitions to be automatically mounted on boot. what program could that have been?
[12:17] <hipitihop> what config setting/file would effect all keyboard and mouse input being ignored ?
[12:17] <ezerhoden> i see in xorg.conf that many things have been configured automagically. i am used to setting up this file myself. is there a way i can find out what values are associated with "Configured Monitor" and "Configured Video Device"?
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> rmt: as far as I know its ok, I dont use wubi though
[12:17] <hmw> ezerhoden: you could look into the xorg.log
[12:18] <jrib> ezerhoden: please read wiki.ubuntu.com/X
[12:19] <ezerhoden> hmw jrib, thanks. i will read both
[12:19] <powner> Ryan_Delaney: you good now or what?
[12:19] <Ryan_Delaney> powner: Nope. no progress.
[12:20] <Nik_Gr> hello, inrelevant, but can someone here cand send me an invitation please for torrentleech.org?
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> rmt: if you reinstall the kernel after booting to an older kernel is it ok?
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> rmt: you could log a bug

[12:20] <powner> Ryan_Delaney: mind checking "groups username" to check that your are in pulse-rt?
[12:21] <zamba> has anyone set up gdm with ldap? i'm experiencing a problem saying "cannot set your user group" and then something that it's unable to log in
[12:21] <TecR0c> how do you upload a folder to a ftp server ?
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> powner: if you just run groups, it assumes the current working user
[12:21] <zamba> TecR0c: use a ftp client
[12:21] <s0undt3ch> maxb
[12:21] <Ryan_Delaney> powner: http://www.fopedush.com/upload/malathion/pulse.png
[12:21] <TecR0c> I AM USING A FTP CLIENT
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> !ftp | TecR0c
[12:22] <zamba> TecR0c: then what's the problem? and stop shouting please
[12:22] <TecR0c> and i am trying to use mput
[12:22] <seravitae> anyone here use bind/named
[12:22] <TecR0c> but i don't know how to do folders?
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> TecR0c: just drag the folder over to the server in your client app
[12:22] <_anu> i install eclipse but the disk space is up , how can i uninstall it ?
[12:22] <TecR0c> sorry about the caps didn't mean it
[12:22] <zamba> TecR0c: typically -R
[12:22] <zamba> TecR0c: like put -R
[12:22] <TecR0c> im using terminal
[12:22] <ActionParsnip> _anu: sudo apt-get --purge remove <applcation name>
[12:22] <zamba> TecR0c: which ftp client are you using?
[12:23] <_anu> ActionParhship : thank you a lot , i must try ^^
[12:23] <TecR0c> the server is proftpd
[12:23] <TecR0c> and i am using the standard ubuntu one
[12:23] <zamba> TecR0c: the server has to comply with RFCs, so the server you're using is irrelevant
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> TecR0c: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=395385
[12:23] <ickis>  When delegating a domain to my own Ubuntu server, should I repeat the static ip in both dns name and ip?
[12:24] <ActionParsnip> zamba: it doesnt have to, its just advised if the software is to get anywhere
[12:24] <zamba> ActionParsnip: sure, but said in practical terms :)
[12:24] <csteel> TecROc: you say you are using terminal? tried scp?
[12:24] <ActionParsnip> zamba: true but its not enforced in any way
[12:25] <Dexi> is there anyone here familiar with coding tcl on eggdrops that could maybe help me with a short script?
[12:25] <zamba> ActionParsnip: nono, of course not.. i can write my own ftp server using my own set of standards, but the problem would be that practically noone would use it :)
[12:25] <_anu> ActionParsnip: I typed " sudo apt-get --purge remove eclipse", it said dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. cry
[12:26] <zamba> ActionParsnip: so in practical terms, and all TecR0c really needs to concern himself about, is that proftpd acts the way it's supposed to and thus is not part of the problem
[12:26] <cjae> !gnash
[12:26] <TecR0c> im not sure what you mean zamba
[12:26] <powner> Ryan_Delaney: might be network related then, also you don't need to be in the pulse group
[12:26] <TecR0c> sorry
[12:26] <TecR0c> ;/
[12:26] <powner> Ryan_Delaney: do you use a firewall?
[12:27] <syockit> I'm sure gnash doesn't work on nicovideo.jp
[12:28] <jrib> Dexi: try the eggdrop channel
[12:28] <Dexi> jrib: i did, nobody there on here or on efnet
[12:28] <jrib> Dexi: there are 30 people in #egghelp
[12:28] <cjae> I am using kubuntu and need flash but would like an open source solution, is gnash at a desktop alternative solution level (I know its beta)? plus isn't it for gnome, being that its (g)nash
[12:29] <cjae> !flash
[12:29] <powner> how do i disable join/part messages in irssi?
[12:29] <csteel> TecROc: are you logged into the ftp server? then you are trying to use the put command?
[12:29] <Dexi> oh egghelp
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> TecR0c: you could create the folder on the server then mput * to copy all the files
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> TecR0c: not massively graceful but should do the job
[12:29] <jrib> powner: http://irssi.org/documentation/tips
[12:29] <powner> jrib: ty
[12:29] <TecR0c> i guess that would work
[12:30] <cjae> there is another one too but I cannot remember name
[12:30] <powner> now to go into the other console and lynx that bad boy..
[12:30] <csteel> just a general question, does scp work on ftp servers?
[12:30] <ActionParsnip> TecR0c: you could try mput -R foldername
[12:31] <powner> csteel: i'm guessing no
[12:31] <Dexi> jrib: 30 people who arent responding :(
[12:31] <TecR0c> mput -R does not work
[12:32] <TecR0c> because it picks the -R as the folder
[12:32] <hmw> csteel: no. scp talks via ssh to the server
[12:32] <TecR0c> when i do mput -R filename
[12:32] <TecR0c> when i do mput -R folder
[12:32] <Bomber87> hello all!
[12:33] <boingOo> No manual entry for mput
[12:33] <hmw> what is a simple gui tool to make a ntfs partition automount on boot?
[12:33] <csteel> thanks hmw, I never use ftp, only ssh so I hadn't tried, but I figured as much
[12:33] <majnoon> !ot
[12:33] <csteel> TecROc: does the put command work?
[12:34] <cjae> anyone using gnash
[12:34] <ActionParsnip> TecR0c: when you are in the ftp prompt
[12:35] <boingOo> No manual entry for gnash
[12:35] <ActionParsnip> hmw: you can add a line to /etc/fstab to make the partition mount at boot
[12:35] <onats> !hdmi
[12:35] <TecR0c> ActionParsnip, that is when i tried it
[12:35] <ActionParsnip> hmw: or create a script to run the mount command when you log in
[12:35] <hmw> ActionParsnip - thanks, but i am looking for a SIMPLE tool, i already had, and forgot the package name
[12:35] <onats> anyone here been able to play audio via hdmi? I am on ati 3870 video card...
[12:35] <ActionParsnip> !info ntfstools
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> hmw: apt-cache search ntfs
[12:36] <powner> which is bets supported by ubuntu, dwm, wmii, xmonad, awesome or ion? (these are window managers)
[12:36] <powner> bets=best
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> hmw: i'd just use fstab, it will then be mounted even if you dro pto osafe mode root console
[12:36] <TecR0c> csteel, put ?
[12:36] <hmw> ActionParsnip - already doing this... for over 40 minutes now, also google of course. that package had some cryptic name - i lost my ubuntu-notes.txt file due to my stupidity
[12:36] <hmw> ActionParsnip - i had problems making it manually
[12:37] <Dr_willis> powner,  with alternative window managers like that - you just gotta use them and see. depends on how you define 'supported' also.  - i perfer jwm as an alterantvie
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> powner: all are supported well, just use the one you like
[12:37] <rohil> Hi , how do I change the brightness level of my Sony Vaio laptop screen ? The Power management tab does nothing in this regard .. thanks
[12:37] <Dr_willis> 'supported' means they work? :)
[12:37] <hmw> ActionParsnip - the tool writes all the stuff to fstab
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> powner: i use fluxbox on all my systems
[12:37] <powner> ratpoison wake broke for me so i don't want to try 10 wm's just to find one
[12:37] <mkf1> hello :)
[12:38] <white-sheep> rohil: Use your keyboard.  It's standard.
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> hmw: ive not come across it but you can use apt-search to see whats on the repos if you search intelligently, you can even grep the output
[12:38] <Dr_willis> powner,  you could always go compile the source.   with those wm's its a matter of taste as to what featres you want.
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> hmw: try: apt-cache search disk | grep -i tool
[12:38] <TecR0c> is there much speed difference between doing it through ftp or dragging and dropping folders through a network share?
[12:38] <hmw> ActionParsnip - thanks for your attention. i give up and will try tweaking fstab manually. it is a new computer, maybe it will work here...
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: could use apt-build if there is a source deb ;)
[12:38] <powner> it' snot a matter of taste for me, it's necessity
[12:38] <ActionParsnip> !fstab | hmw
[12:38] <white-sheep> TecR0c: I doubt it -- but you get better user feedback using FTP / Filezilla -- Progress.
[12:39] <ActionParsnip> hmw: backup the original first so you can easily roll back
[12:39] <hmw> ActionParsnip - okok... luckily, i am just lazy and not a total newbie
[12:39] <powner> so i want to find the best userbase i can to help me along
[12:40] <ActionParsnip> hmw: i assume nothing in here, no offence meant
[12:40] <cjae> ok I just installed gnash and would like to revert it and all it dependencies how do I do this?
[12:40] <hmw> ActionParsnip - misunderstanding! i just would like the easy-click-and-go version
[12:40] <Dr_willis> powner,  best user base would be on the more common window managers.. I guess you could check out the specific WM you are insterested in and see how good of a forum/web site/homepage they got.
[12:40] <cjae> it installed way to much stuff I would like to keep my system gnome free as possible
[12:41] <ActionParsnip> hmw: i dont know of such an app, i always manually update fstab
[12:41] <powner> guess i'm better sticking to console framebuffer anyway
[12:41] <ActionParsnip> hmw: if you know the command to mount it at command line, the fstab entry is very little different
[12:41] <dub_stylee> !w32codecs
[12:42] <uzer> hello who know how to optimize eclipse , it is work too slow
[12:42] <CrownAmbassador> This is a wild shot, but can anyone using a eth0 connection paste the contents of /etc/network/interfaces and post the link please please please?
[12:43] <powner> uzer: never heard of that - besides "don't use eclipse"
[12:43] <Dr_willis> powner,  ratposion works here..  of course for terminal work i tend to use the 'terminator' gnome-terminal variant
[12:43] <powner> seriously, vi is optimal in every why, why use eclipse at all?
[12:43] <CrownAmbassador> Anyone using ibex that is.
[12:44] <ActionParsnip> CrownAmbassador: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/
[12:44] <ActionParsnip> CrownAmbassador: pretty decent guide there
[12:44] <powner> Dr_willis: !  how do i change the default term in rat?  mine defaulted to x-terminal-emulator
[12:45] <CrownAmbassador> ActionParsnip: Thanks. Thats what I wanted!
[12:45] <powner> Dr_willis: when C-t c nothing happens besides the exec notice
[12:45] <uzer> powner what you advise instead eclipse?  i don know other Java IDE ?
[12:45] <ActionParsnip> CrownAmbassador: np man, its a sweet file
[12:45] <ActionParsnip> !ide
[12:45] <powner> uzer: vi?
[12:46] <ActionParsnip> uzer: apt-cache search ide
[12:46] <Dr_willis> powner,  no idea.. read its docs..  x-terminal-emulator is   part of the  system ubuntu has to set system wide defaults for common tasks
[12:46] <powner> Dr_willis: so you just installed it an it worked?  version?
[12:46] <uzer> ActionParsnip i use synaptic manager, i will try this way
[12:47] <darksifer> hi everyone
[12:47] <Dr_willis> powner,  whatever was in the 8.10 repos
[12:47] <Dr_willis>  ratposion 1.4.3
[12:48] <powner> Dr_willis: guess my install is broke, i'll try a resinstall
[12:48] <ActionParsnip> uzer: same kinda back but if you use command line you can grep the output to filter it better
 thank for advise
[12:48] <darksifer> i download a bin file to my desktop but i cant get it install. i tried sudo chmod a+x RealPlayer11GOLD.bin /sudo bash ./RealPlayer11GOLD.bin/ chmod 755 RealPlayer11GOLD.bin but in vain
[12:48] <darksifer> plz help me out
[12:48] <rohil> I still can't change the brightness of my Vaio laptop ..any help would be very appreciated.
[12:49] <onats> rohil, squint your eyes a bit... jk
[12:49] <ActionParsnip> uzer: as you use linux you will tend to find command line offers way more power than gui apps (as you can see in that example) but they are great for novices
 no it is not problem for me, i mean  command line, i learn it fast... but i thought that command line gives less the GUI
[12:51] <Morclye> Hi. I'm newbie with Ubuntu as also with linux in general. I have problem that opening a page in firefox takes nearly half a minute. It says it's "looking up". Synaptic has same problem.
[12:51] <Uatec> w00t
[12:51] <Uatec> it let me in
[12:51] <Uatec> Hi there
[12:51] <onats> !kill
[12:51] <ActionParsnip> uzer: in some situations (cd burning, web browsing) I'd use gui but for copy, rename, open files, install apps etc etc, command line for me please
[12:51] <Uatec> Morclye: it sounds like a DNS issue to me. Are you familiar enough with DNS to run some checks  on that?
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> Uatec: welcome
[12:52] <Dr_willis> !realplayer
[12:52] <onats> how do i force kill an application (which i dont know the PID of) on my desktop?
[12:52] <Morclye> I have tried disabling ipv6 in firefox and made put ipv6 in off mode in alias
[12:52] <jav> !sata
[12:52] <Dr_willis> onats,  the 'xkill' command then click on the apps window.  works for most .
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> onats: try kill -15 <pid>
[12:52] <jxander> how do i grant root access to another user? i tried editing /etc/sudoers, by adding "jxander ALL= /usr/bin/moblock-control" but it didn't work.
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> onats: if its no good, try kill -9 <pid>
[12:52] <darksifer> thanks
[12:53] <Dr_willis> jxander,  thats how ya go about doing it.. if thats the right syntax. but the user must be in the proper group also.
[12:53] <Morclye> Uatec, I'm not familiar with working of DNS servers but I did manually enter my ISP DNS address in network configuration, didn't help though. In XP I have it set automatic
[12:53] <onats> Dr_willis, that worked, thanks!
[12:53] <onats> ActionParsnip, didn't know what the PID was
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> onats: kill -15 is a graceful kill and makes theprogram end, kill -9 just stops it dead
[12:53] <jxander> Dr_willis: in the same group as root?
[12:53] <Uatec> Morclye: in XP on the same network i assume you don't have the same issue?
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> onats: ps -ef | grep <app name>
[12:53] <Morclye> Uatec, Correct
[12:57] <Dr_willis> jxander,  i forget the details but thers some group thats allowed to use sudo..

[12:57] <T2loc> j'ai un probleme avec apt-get
[12:58] <jrib> !fr | T2loc
[12:58] <ActionParsnip> !fr | T2loc
[12:58] <T2loc> sorry
[12:58] <Dr_willis> jxander,  looking at the groups file it may be the 'adm' group
[12:58] <SmokeyD1> hey people. To get the latest stable clamav installed, which repositories do I need?
[12:58] <SmokeyD1> The standard repository packages seem to be a little behind ClamAV
[12:59] <SmokeyD1> 0.92 vs 0.94
[12:59] <jrib> SmokeyD1: 0.94 is what I see in intrepid's repositories.  What ubuntu version are you using?
[12:59] <jxander> Dr_willis: line adm:x:4:jxander is already there
[12:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Out of Date? !latest: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit.
[12:59] <jxander> Dr_willis: there is a sudo:x:27 . should i add :jxander?
[13:00] <Dr_willis> jxander,  i would ahve to say go google/read up on sudo configuration  and ussage.. its somtnhing you do not want to mess up
[13:00] <Jack_Sparrow> Morning jrib .. I made it home safely
[13:00] <jrib> Jack_Sparrow: good to hear
[13:00] <jxander> Dr_willis: lol... you're right! :)... thanks :D
[13:01] <rmt> Does wubi's initrd require losetup?
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> rmt: do you mean the interface lo ?
 vi it is text editor and it is not convenient for programming on java
[13:01] <Jack_Sparrow> rmt, Please read and understand the differences between a Wubi install and a regular hard drive install.
[13:02] <SmokeyD1> jrib: sorry I meant hardy
[13:02] <SmokeyD1> :)
[13:02] <rmt> Jack_Sparrow, I'm quite familiar with partition installs .. installed via Wubi, did an apt-get update, including a new kernel, and now it won't boot.
[13:02] <rmt> ActionParsnip, No, I mean /dev/loop0 etc.
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> rmt: boot to the older kernel and read the logs
[13:03] <rmt> Would be nice, but the default upgrade seems to have replaced the old kernel completely. Annoying.
[13:04] <Jack_Sparrow> rmt, NO problem but since I dont recommend, nor use wubi I cant really help
[13:04] <rmt> So now I'm trying to figure out what I need to do to create a new initrd, which I presume is the key..
[13:05] <jrib> SmokeyD1: usually security patches are cherrypicked, so the version you are using probably already has the security patches from 0.94 (check the changelog).  See: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/clamav/+bug/296704
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> rmt: if you can find out the kernel version of the new malfunctioning kernel you could use: sudo apt-get install initrd.img-<kernel version>-generic
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> rmt: boot to the old kernel and run: dpk -l | grep -i kernel
[13:05] <SmokeyD1> jrib: yeah but I remember from previous experiences that clamav always complains if you don't update it
[13:05] <SmokeyD1> or has that been changed?
[13:06] <ActionParsnip> rmt: make a note of the newest kernel, then run the initrd installation as I said
[13:07] <rmt> ActionParsnip, Yes, I think that I can probably copy the appropriate kernel & initrd to the C:\ubuntu\host\boot (or whatever) directory and recover this way..
[13:07] <jrib> SmokeyD1: I don't use clamav.  Is it complaining?
[13:08] <SmokeyD1> jrib: I didn't install yet. I assumed it would be since I experienced that before. I'll see first before wasting time :)
[13:08] <ActionParsnip> rmt: could be an option, wubi is okay to try ubuntu but as a full OS its pretty nasty, some love it though but swings and roundabouts eh
[13:08] <SmokeyD1> jrib: I know debian has a volatile repository with clamav because of the clamav complaints when it 's not the newest version
[13:09] <rainbowinfinity> to install adobe acrobat in order to file my taxes, but every time i try to download/install, it fails because the helper applicatio is not present...can anyone help???
[13:09] <jxander> Dr_willis: i found a solution, adding jxander ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL to sudoers... do i need to logout for the changes to take effect?
[13:09] <rmt> ActionParsnip - annoyed that they pitch it as such a wonderful problem free solution, though.
[13:09] <ActionParsnip> SmokeyD1: i found the clamav on the repos refused to update definitoins and had to compile the source for the latest from the clamav site
[13:09] <jrib> SmokeyD1: the bug mentions some ppa, but I would try with the default repositories first
[13:09] <SmokeyD1> Yep, clamav is complaining it is outdated
[13:09] <ActionParsnip> rmt: ubuntu and linux as a whole are great, no OS is problem free
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> SmokeyD1: try: sudo freshclam
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> SmokeyD1: if it doesnt update you may have to compile it
[13:10] <Dr_willis> jxander,  not for  sudoers i think.. but thats not really a 'good' fix. :) you just disabled a big psr tof the secuity behind sudoers
[13:10] <Deany> i use avast.. has a gui too
[13:10] <SmokeyD1> ActionParsnip: freshclam only updates the virus definitions, not the program itself
[13:10] <SmokeyD1> that works fine
[13:10] <SmokeyD1> definitions are up to date
[13:11] <SmokeyD1> but the program is not
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> SmokeyD1: apt-get upgrade upgrades the app
[13:11] <SmokeyD1> ActionParsnip: 0.94 isn't available for hardy
[13:11] <jrib> SmokeyD1: apt-cache policy clamav   shows what version?
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> SmokeyD1: but you are relying on the repo maintainers to update them
[13:11] <ActionParsnip> SmokeyD1: then compile it
[13:11] <SmokeyD1> jrib:  Installed: 0.92.1~dfsg2-1.1ubuntu0.4
[13:11] <SmokeyD1>   Candidate: 0.92.1~dfsg2-1.1ubuntu0.4
[13:12] <coky> hi all
[13:12] <rmt> ActionParsnip, Oh, I know. Been using Linux since 95, and (almost) exclusively since ~2003. ;)
[13:12] <coky> any1 using LX 800 epson?
[13:12] <PhilTar> People are up at this time..?
[13:12] <coky> how to get the driver?
[13:12] <San> massa
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> coky: let me see what i can find
[13:13] <Pnux> hey, i have a file in the trash:/// that i cant delete because i dont have enough permission.. already tried chmoding trash:/// and sudo nautilus trash:///
[13:13] <SmokeyD1> ActionParsnip: so there is no other ubuntu repository that provides 0.94.1?
[13:13] <Pnux> any ideas?
[13:13] <coky> ok thanks
[13:13] <SmokeyD1> similary to the debian volatile repos
[13:13] <robocop> hello.
[13:13] <jxander> Dr_willis: i'm the only one using this lappy... is it that bad? could someone through internet gain access my comp because of this?
[13:13] <coky> ubuntu doesnt support it as default
[13:13] <SmokeyD1> It is quite useless to have a virusscanner without it's program (apart from the virus definitions) being up to date
[13:14] <Bormy> Hello
[13:14] <jrib> SmokeyD1: why is that useless?
[13:14] <robocop> It is normal if, next install apache2, the file /etc/apache2/httpd.conf is empty ?
[13:14] <Bormy> anybody could help?
[13:14] <jrib> SmokeyD1: did you see if the changelog mentions the 0.94 changes?
[13:14] <jhonnyboy> hey guys what does it mean to be identified to join a channel??
[13:14] <PhilTar> Bormy: You need to say what your problem is, first.
[13:14] <cousteau> what are ~/.fr-* folders?
[13:15] <SmokeyD1> jrib: since new virusses get released all the time that first try to disable the virusscanner so it can't be detected, even if the scanner knows about it.
[13:15] <rainbowinfinity> can anyone help me install adobe acrobat??
[13:15] <jrib> cousteau: folders that start with ".fr" in your home directory...  Why?
[13:15] <SmokeyD1> that is why the program itself is updated so often
[13:15] <Dr_willis> jxander,  proberly not too bad.   theres a lot of features sudo has -  for a varity of situations.. You could proerly set it where just that one command dosent need a password. if you wanted to
[13:15] <Bormy> the text of some of my applications' menu are not well displayed (ubuntu 8.10) .
[13:15] <Pnux> hey, i have a file in the trash:/// that i cant delete because i dont have enough permission.. already tried chmoding trash:/// and sudo nautilus trash:///. Any ideas?
[13:16] <jrib> SmokeyD1: I really doubt that happens on linux, but like I said, security fixes are cherrypicked into -updates.  That's why I am asking you to check the changelog of the version you have now to see if it mentions the bug I linked you to
[13:16] <cousteau> jrib: I mean, what's their purpose
[13:16] <jxander> Dr_willis: will any rule like that i set for sudo work for gksu too?
[13:16] <jrib> cousteau: your question is to general
[13:16] <jrib> too
[13:16] <PhilTar> Bormy: Did you mess with any of the theme settings? Metacity/Emerald
[13:16] <Deany> wish avast had a repo then i could update the program, but grabbin a deb now n then is fine, its always updated and has a nice gui
[13:16] <Dr_willis> jxander,  not sure.. but i think so
[13:16] <meican> hola
[13:17] <ezerhoden> jrib: that wiki.ubuntu.com/X link was exactly what i was looking for. Thanks again.
[13:17] <jrib> ezerhoden: no problem
[13:17] <cousteau> jrib: they seem to be temporary folders to unzip files
[13:18] <Bormy> philTar
[13:18] <Bormy> PhilTar: how to set it as default?
[13:18] <cousteau> but shouldn't them be automatically deleted when I'm not using the archive any more?
[13:18] <jrib> SmokeyD1: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-motu/2008-December/005068.html mail mentioning the ppa in the bug report
[13:19] <PhilTar> If you want to use Metacity, then press Alt+F2. Then type:    metacity --replace
[13:19] <SmokeyD1> jrib: thanks for the info
[13:19] <coky> ok iam loading the pages
[13:19] <meican> i have update my ubuntu (8.04) package,  but suddenly my all file type changed to plain text
[13:19] <meican> what's wrong ?
[13:20] <SmokeyD1> Indeed that security fix of clamav from 0.94.0 to 0.94.1 has been included in 0.92 of the ubuntu repos
[13:20] <rainbowinfinity> anybody have any ideas about installing adobe??
[13:20] <unomi> hi, any ideas on how i can speed up copying files over smb?
[13:20] <ActionParsnip> meican: is that in nautilus etc/
[13:21] <hmw> rainbowinfinity: acrobat reader? try foxit reader instead
[13:21] <unomi> between to ubuntu intrepids i get about 5.3 MB/s
[13:21] <unomi> s/to/2/
[13:21] <meican> ActionParsnip, no
[13:21] <Dr_willis> unomi,  the smb.conf file has some suggested  tweaks - but smb can be sluggish.. nfs i hear is faster
[13:21] <meican> *.jpg, *.sxw, etc
[13:21] <meican> except system file configuration
[13:21] <Dr_willis> unomi,  and for linux to linux - i think the tweaks/comments suggest may help a lot.
[13:21] <rainbowinfinity> hmw..i tried, but the site i need to file my taxes ONLYuses adobe reader...i tried to install, but it said helper papps were missing
[13:21] <Dr_willis> unomi,  but for Ubnut to ubuntu - you may really want to use nfs
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> unomi: try using: socket options = TCP_NODELAY in /etc/samba/smb.conf
[13:22] <unomi> ill have a look, thanks
[13:22] <sipior> unomi: what speeds are you expecting?
[13:22] <zamba> how can i set the language used for the whole of ubuntu for one user?
[13:22] <unomi> for 100mbps net?
[13:22] <zamba> what file is that defined in?
[13:23] <unomi> sipior: lets just say higher than 5mb/s
[13:23] <jrib> zamba: enable the language in system -> administration -> language support.  Then at the login screen, click "options" and select your language
[13:23] <sipior> unomi: well, 5.3 MB/sec is over 40Mbit/sec, which is quite reasonable for switched 100BaseT
[13:23] <Dr_willis> I always get the MB/sec and Mbit/Sec stuff confused...
[13:24] <Dr_willis> and how it relates to 100/1000/whatever network speed #;s
[13:24] <sipior> unomi: rare to get more than 40-50% of max throughput as packet collisions become an issue
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> unomi: gksudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf and find the socket options, add that option and it goes a lot faster
[13:24] <unomi> trying to apply that now
[13:26] <Elmnas> hi guys can someone a easy program I can merge partitions in without lost the data on em?
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> Elmnas: gparted in livecd might be able to
[13:26] <Elmnas> ok
[13:26] <PhilTar> If I deleted all the settins in my home folder, will a reboot revert everything back to the default settings?
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> Elmnas: i'd run your backup before undertaking anything like that
[13:26] <Dr_willis> I dont think gparted can merge 2 partitions with data.. and KEEP the data on both
[13:26] <Dr_willis> that would be a neat trick
[13:26] <Elmnas> I cant have no space :(
[13:26] <PhilTar> Elmnas: google system rescue cd
[13:27] <Elmnas> but can you please remote me action please master
[13:27] <unomi> do i need to restart smbd ?"
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> PhilTar: yes, the folders for each app will be recreated as you run them
[13:27] <Dr_willis> Elmnas,  lets just say  i learned over the weekend.. if you cant afford to back stuff up.. expect it to get LOST at any time.. Had a 500gb hd die on me
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> Elmnas: so what if your drive fails, where is your data then?
[13:27] <Elmnas> ok..
[13:28] <PhilTar> What's the story with those 1TB seagate drives?
[13:28] <Dr_willis> Elmnas,  500gb hd..  did a click click.. and dead ;) on me thios weekend
[13:28] <PhilTar> Is it just a faulty batch or is the firmware on all them bad?
[13:28] <rainbowinfinity> can anyone help with adobe??
[13:28] <dinesh372> how to install vlc player in ubuntu i have alread downloaded .bz2 file and want to know how to proceed further
[13:28] <Elmnas> ok
[13:29] <Dr_willis> dinesh372,  remove the bz2 an install it from the repositories.
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: adobe what, they make about 30 apps i can pull of the top of my head
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: can you be more specific
[13:29] <Dr_willis> dinesh372,  theres no need to mess with the source - unless you have a need. :)
[13:29] <PhilTar> 10 bucks says acrobat
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> Elmnas: if your data is important, get a backup
[13:29] <Elmnas> ok
[13:29] <unomi> thanks for that, its up to 8.6 MB/s now
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> Elmnas: if its not, stay backupless
[13:29] <rainbowinfinity> Action Parsnip...i need reader inorder to file my taxes.. I tried to install, but it said helper apps were missing
[13:29] <sipior> PhilTar: my understanding was that the problem extended to a number of the Barracuda 7200.11 line, including the 500GB models...
[13:29] <jhonnyboy> how can i identify myself to join other servers?
[13:30] <dinesh372> Dr_wills: how to go in epositories
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> !info acroread
[13:30] <ezerhoden> jhonnyboy: /msg nickerv help identify
[13:30] <Dr_willis> dinesh372,  its in the normal package manager/repositories.. fire up synaptic and look for it..  learn how the package manager system works on Ubuntu
[13:30] <Dr_willis> !info vlc
[13:30] <Dr_willis> dinesh372,  you will need to be sure to enable the 'multiverse' repository
[13:30] <rainbowinfinity> ActionParsnip...i tried the installation instructions on the adobe site, but it got me nowhere
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: sudo apt-get install acroread
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: you can also use the open source one: xpdf
[13:31] <cousteau> so what are all those folders begining with ".fr-" that appear in ~?
[13:31] <jhonnyboy> how can i register a nickname?
[13:31] <ezerhoden> jhonnyboy: and /msg nickserv help register
[13:31] <jhonnyboy> ah thanks
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: its on the repos, you dont need any websites at all
[13:31] <rainbowinfinity> ActionParsnip...the doc reader will NOT work...tried already
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: if you want to CREATE pdfs, you can print through the pdf printer you have which is standard
[13:32] <PhilTar> off topic: is there a general computer chat channel on freenode?
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: acrobat reader doesnt create pdfs
[13:32] <Jack_Sparrow> PhilTar, many, depending on hardware software or your interests
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> !ot | PhilTar
[13:32] <Jack_Sparrow> !irc
[13:32] <Dr_willis> If you print a pdf from acrobat reader to the PDF printer...  what does it really do? :)
[13:33] <PhilTar> Thanks
[13:33] <kompi07> fsgfsfgsdfgdfg
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: so you want to print a pdf to a pdf/ seems like a cp command to me :)
[13:34] <kid_kaito> azkum....
[13:34] <Dr_willis> ActionParsnip,  wonder if the 2 files would be identical ? :)
[13:34] <rainbowinfinity> ActionParsnip...apt-get did not work...says package is missing or only availible from another source
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: could use compare ;)
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: do you want to create a pdf, or simply look at one?
[13:35] <rainbowinfinity> ActionParsnip...I need to open a pdf on my state's tax site to file my taxes...the forms are inpdf
[13:35] <ScottG> How do I increase my swap space?
[13:35] <jrib> !swap > ScottG
[13:36] <PhilTar> rainbowinfinity: just get foxit PDF reader
[13:36] <IndyGunFreak> rainbowinfinity: just use evince, its part of the default ubuntu install
[13:36] <rainbowinfinity> ActionParsnip...I already tried all of the linux doc readers...they won't work...need adobe
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> rainbowinfinity: then xpdf will let you view the file, thered pdfedit if you wish to edit the file itself
[13:37] <Dr_willis> I forget which repo i found acrobat reader in.. was it the Medibuntu ones?
[13:37] <rainbowinfinity> sorry...nevermind
[13:37] <IndyGunFreak> rainbowinfinity: if you must have adobe (which i doubt), medibuntu has acroread in its repository
[13:37] <ScottG> jrib: Thanks. I'm just having trouble hibernating when I have firefox open which usually has a lot of tabs.
[13:37] <shauno> I've not found any pdf readers that handle pdf forms properly.  I stick to acrobat reader too
[13:37] <jdangerous> 1337 userss
[13:37] <kenalex> hello
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: not sure myself, I use the open one
[13:38] <unomi> strange, pdfs open 'out of the box' for me
[13:38] <Dr_willis> dosent ockular also open them?
[13:38] <IndyGunFreak> unomi: they do for all of us.. for some reason, he claims he can't use evince (the program that works out of the box)
[13:38] <ScottG> jrib: Is this a good way to find out if I will be able to hibernate. I type "free" in terminal and if memory used + swap used > total swap, then I won't be able to hibernate?
[13:38] <co_naNO_MIx> hi
[13:38] <sipior> unomi: IndyGunFreak : the problem is form editing, i believe.
[13:38] <unomi> it could be some pdf 'inline forms' kind of thing
[13:39] <IndyGunFreak> sipior: i was under the impression the problem as reading
[13:39] <jrib> ScottG: I don't know
[13:39] <unomi> whats the point of having a proprietary format if you don't leverage it
[13:39] <asdfasdfasdf> anyone tried installing latest opera in Ibex ?
[13:39] <co_naNO_MIx> hjgd
[13:39] <IndyGunFreak> asdfasdfasdf: i've got it.
[13:40] <PhilTar> asdfasdfasdf: Me too
[13:40] <asdfasdfasdf> well, when i install it.. and i have on two different pc's.. two seperate installs,
[13:40] <asdfasdfasdf> the menu text doesn't show up
[13:40] <asdfasdfasdf> it's all underscores
[13:40] <ScottG> jrib: I was told that I didnt really need that much swap when I was installing but this is telling me i need double my RAM. odd
[13:40] <asdfasdfasdf> you guys have that issue?
[13:41] <sipior> IndyGunFreak: 2:35pm rainbowinfinity I need to open a pdf on my state's tax site to file my taxes...the forms are inpdf
[13:41] <PhilTar> Works fine with me
[13:41] <Dr_willis> asdfasdfasdf, its working here - i just used opera
[13:41] <sipior> moot point, he seems to have left :-)
[13:41] <asdfasdfasdf> fuck sakes
[13:41] <asdfasdfasdf> wtf
[13:41] <jrib> ScottG: just equal to your ram
[13:41] <PhilTar> I'm using custom fonts for everything though, that might be playing a role
[13:41] <cousteau> ~/.fr-* seem to be file-roller temporary files, shouldn't them be automatically deleted?
[13:41] <co_naNO_MIx> hgj
[13:41] <asdfasdfasdf> ibex is a POS
[13:41] <IndyGunFreak> sipior: then adobe reader isnm't gonna work either.
[13:41] <jrib> asdfasdfasdf: that doesn't get you help faster.  Stop with the language
[13:41] <elmnas> hi guys can someone a good program for see chasi fan controller like a panel, on desktop I downloaded im sensors but I can just see the temp on my mainpanel
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: its not for everyone
[13:41] <Dr_willis> asdfasdfasdf -    it just hates you
[13:42] <IndyGunFreak> asdfasdfasdf: what menu text?
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: when do you see the underscores?
[13:42] <asdfasdfasdf> in any menu text
[13:42] <asdfasdfasdf> hold on i'll get a screenshot
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: does it happen for all users? (you could create a test user to test)
[13:43] <backkom> Wenas
[13:43] <jdangerous> can anyone help me, iam trying to install videop drivers for my ati firemv 2250 pcie card.. i tried to install the FirePro_8.543_Linux_71557.zip driver but when i restart i get no video and have to bootin recovery mode to get it back
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: if its ok for the test user, rename ALL ~/.gnome* folders and reboot
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: if it happens in the test user, its te app thats broken
[13:44] <Dr_willis> I recall there being some font/compiz issues with some apps.. but i dont recall hearing Opera Mentioned inthe list
[13:44] <sipior> IndyGunFreak: actually, it does work, but doesn't save to pdf. if you're planning on printing out the forms and mailing them in, it works fine.
[13:45] <elmnas> can someone help, me I want have my im-sensors like a styled window on my desktop so I can see the temps how do I do
[13:46] <JePeaL> np
[13:46] <zamba> jrib: but what if i want to set the system-wide language using flat configuration files?
[13:46] <paul68> what are the benefits of a vpn connection over a ssh connection?
[13:46] <zamba> jrib: i'm maintaining a bunch of computers over ssh
[13:46] <jrib> zamba: for a single user or?
[13:46] <zamba> jrib: for all users
[13:47] <jrib> zamba: setting LANG in /etc/environment is probably enough
[13:47] <bn43> hi has anyone come across a situation where shutdown and reboot just don't execute?
[13:47] <bn43> via command line
[13:47] <asdfasdfasdf> http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/1450/screenshotmg6.png
[13:48] <sipior> bn43: any error messages?
[13:48] <bn43> no
[13:49] <zamba> jrib: ok.. cool :)
[13:49] <asdfasdfasdf> IndyGunFreak, ActionParsnip - check that out ;o
[13:49] <burkmat> Any easy way to read keys out of my keyring? I'm very well aware of the keyring password but apparently it doesn't memorize my SMTP-key, so I need to take my POP one and stick it in there...
[13:49] <gidna> Hi
[13:49] <bn43> system says its going down for reboot but then nothing happens
[13:49] <gidna> http://rafb.net/p/jbRsh030.html  why can't I install perl 5.10?
[13:49] <elmnas> asdfasdfasdf what is it for program you have to see the system , info etc?
[13:50] <sipior> bn43: might check /var/log/messages and dmesg for unusual entries. may i ask what command you used to start the reboot?
[13:50] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: is that in compiz?
[13:50] <ScottG> Why does the SwapFaq on the ubuntu site say that swappinness os 10 is recommended but then its set at 60 by default.
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> ScottG: never worked that one out myself
[13:51] <bn43> sudo reboot
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> ScottG: I always change it myself
[13:51] <elmnas> actionparsnip do you know what is it for program asdfa...  he use to show the system info?
[13:51] <asdfasdfasdf> elmnas, it's called: conky
[13:51] <elmnas> okej thanks :)
[13:51] <asdfasdfasdf> ActionParsnip, is what in compiz?
[13:51] <asdfasdfasdf> yes i have it installed..
[13:51] <asdfasdfasdf> it comes installed by default ;p
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: are you running compiz when you get the underscores?
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: compiz is optional.
[13:52] <bn43> sipior: nothing in there
[13:52] <n8tuser> bn43 -> after you issued that command, ctrl+alt+f1 to see if any syslog displayed there
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> asdfasdfasdf: if you switch back to metacity, is it ok?
[13:53] <elmnas> asdfasdfasdf how can I modify it?
[13:53] <bn43> I'm ssh into the box
[13:53] <bn43> is there a way to see that otherwise?
[13:53] <ScottG> ActionParsnip: If I use a vm frequently that takes up 2 gb of my 4 gb of ram, should i leave my swappiness at 60 or would 10 still be best?
[13:55] <asdfasdfasdf> ahh shit
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> ScottG: i'd try both settings for a week or so, see which makes your system perform best
[13:55] <asdfasdfasdf> yeah when i switch to MC the menus are there
[13:55] <asdfasdfasdf> wtf
[13:55] <asdfasdfasdf> that is, metacity
[13:55] <Pici> asdfasdfasdf, Please watch your language in this channel, thank you.
[13:55] <asdfasdfasdf> stfu
[13:55] <sipior> oh dear...
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> ScottG: it all varies on how and what you use your system for. I set it to 10 on my 1Gb ram system but i rarely exceed it
[13:56] <uriol> hi
[13:56] <sipior> asdfasdfasdf: could you try communicating in words instead of grunts? if you just want to vent, try #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:57] <uriol> do you know a way to see the size of the folder in file navigator ? without doing du commands ?
[13:57] <asdfasdfasdf> lol losers
[13:57] <asdfasdfasdf> OMG NO SWEARING

[13:58] <ActionParsnip> !dualhead | jwiddwii
[13:58] <jwiddwii> !Xinerama
[13:58] <jwiddwii> Cheers

[13:59] <dundel> ActionParsnip: in xev? how do i see that?
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> dundel: its a terminal command
[14:00] <homy> Hi! How can I stream music (mp3) from my ubuntu box to the wii using the lan? (and the wii web browser channel)?
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> dundel: it shows the outputs of all inputs to the system
[14:00] <centoasa> Hi everybody
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> dundel: if you are running compiz, there is a bug with it where certain settings kill mouse clicks
[14:01] <centoasa> my network manager don't accept static IP
[14:01] <centoasa> it's normal?
[14:01] <xiaojianjun> Good evening!
[14:01] <Heliodor> Hey
[14:01] <centoasa> I'm chatting form Italy
[14:01] <Heliodor> Im trying to install Eclipse PDT 2.0 but nothing happens when i run the executable file.
[14:01] <sipior> centoasa: afraid so. i understand the latest version allows for static IPs (long overdue...)
[14:01] <Heliodor> Any ideas why?
[14:02] <centoasa> in fact I've 8.10
[14:02] <Deany> homy, bit OTT maybe but try apache and musicindex module
[14:02] <dundel> ActionParsnip: yes i'm using compiz, and yes i get events in xev
[14:02] <Deany> v nice
[14:02] <tr3nd> How do i make sure my graphic drivers are installed?
[14:02] <sipior> centoasa: yes, but 8.10 doesn't have the latest network manager
[14:02] <centoasa> wht's the latest network manager?
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> dundel: bad compiz crippling the click, head into #compiz I'm sure they get this a lot, if you default all the compiz settings it should return
[14:02] <xiaojianjun> Can someone tell me how to install flash player in power pc
[14:02] <jwiddwii> hrm, I've asl decided that it is not worth it
[14:02] <sipior> centoasa: http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/
[14:03] <Heliodor> None?
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> xiaojianjun: you have gnash or swfplayer
[14:03] <skoef> act
[14:03] <dundel> ActionParsnip: Thanks, i'm going to try it there
[14:03] <jwiddwii> I'll wait a while, don't want to bugger asl it up guys
[14:03] <centoasa> can I upgrade network manager from within Ubuntu?
[14:03] <matteo1990> hi all, i am having problems with connecting my laptop to my full HD with VGA cable. I tried with windows and with fn+f4 all worked good. I have Gutsy gibbon. Any tips?
[14:03] <homy> Deany: what do you mean with OTT?
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> homy: ott == over the top
[14:04] <sipior> centoasa: is it so important? you can use the network configuration dialogue to set up a static network. i agree it's not ideal. of course, you could always build a new network manager, but building gnome apps is a special form of pain...
[14:04] <homy> and how can over the top help me with streaming music to my wii?
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> homy: can wii access windows shared folders?
[14:05] <centoasa> sipior: you say it's better dhcp instead static IP?
[14:05] <n8tuser> matteo1990 -> thats unique, whats a vga cable? video cable?
[14:05] <remoteLAP> hi all
[14:05] <Deany> homy,  heres a very old guide i knocked up...  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202837
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> centoasa: its not a case of better, if dhcp suits your needs, use it
[14:05] <sipior> centoasa: no, i said you can configure a static ip from within the networking dialogue
[14:05] <homy> ActionParsnip: no. There only is the web browser channel with a opera web browser. But accessing a mp3 or even flv file doesn't work. But flash works on the wii.
[14:06] <matteo1990> n8tuser->RGB/VGA, the cable for screens.
[14:06] <Deany> if you can follow that, using the latest musicindex (1.2.2 i believe) then you`ll be grand
[14:06] <Deany> still have one setup myself
[14:06] <remoteLAP> ActionParsnip: hey dude, all straight?
[14:06] <homy> Deany: does it stream with flash? Because otherwise the wii can't play it
[14:06] <sipior> centoasa: or just modify /etc/network/interfaces by hand. the syntax is pretty easy to follow, and is documented in "man interfaces"
[14:06] <n8tuser> matteo1990 -> HD is hard disk?
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> remoteLAP: yeh pretty much
[14:07] <Deany> homy, ahh.. not flash no..
[14:07] <ActionParsnip> homy: if you install vlc, you can catch the stream like a webcast
[14:07] <matteo1990> matteo1990->High definition.
[14:07] <homy> Deany: but doesn it work with the wii?
[14:07] <remoteLAP> ActionParsnip: nice:) well then let suppot a little
[14:07] <Deany> homy,  make a vidiscript server
[14:07] <centoasa> siprior, can you help me step by step to configure static ip?
[14:07] <remoteLAP> homy: should not be platform dependent
[14:08] <homy> ActionParsnip: but there isn't a "stream receive programm" on the wii, only a web browser with flash (not even java!) support.
[14:08] <Deany> (your own flash site)
[14:08] <sipior> centoasa: sure, although, if you've already got dhcp working...
[14:08] <mr_bmh> anyone tell me what the software I can use to convert the .mov to .wmv in Ubuntu
[14:09] <mr_bmh> Need the program in Gnome
[14:09] <matteo1990> hi all, i am having problems with connecting my laptop to my full HD with VGA cable. I tried with windows and with fn+f4 all worked good. I have Gutsy gibbon. Any tips?
[14:09] <centoasa> I'm click right: modify connection
[14:09] <Deany> homy, i dont know if it will work with the wii no.. (musicindex) it just displays your music nicely as a webpage where you click on and it streams it to your assigned music player.
[14:09] <ActionParsnip> homy: I think you can access it via http, I'd look into it
[14:09] <remoteLAP> !video | remoteLAP
[14:09] <homy> Deany: wait a moment, I'll try the vidiscript live demo with the wii...
[14:09] <homy> ActionParsnip: thanks
[14:10] <sipior> centoasa: actually, have a look here: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-set-a-static-ip-address-in-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex.html
[14:10] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: have a look at this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaApplications
[14:10] <Deany> is the web browser the only thing it has?
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> remoteLAP: dude check Penumbra out, its a sweet first person game
[14:11] <remoteLAP> matteo1990: what laptop is it?
[14:11] <remoteLAP> ActionParsnip: well do, sec
[14:11] <centoasa> sipior: great! I'm trying it
[14:11] <uriol> how can i record dvb tv signal in divx format ?
[14:11] <matteo1990> remoteLAP: Fujiitsu amilo Pi 1505
[14:11] <uriol> the kaffeine it records in mpeg-2 format
[14:11] <uriol> it make very big files
[14:12] <uriol> 1gb for 10 minutes video
[14:12] <mr_bmh> I am using ubuntu, I want to convert the .mov file to wmv for my gigabeat. I have read that site
[14:12] <remoteLAP> matteo1990: happen to know what graphics card you got?
[14:12] <mr_bmh> did not found the video converter
[14:13] <remoteLAP> ActionParsnip: looks nice on first sight
[14:13] <new_on_linux> hi, i wonder if kaspersky av can be installed on wine?
[14:13] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: wahts the problem there?
[14:13] <xiaojianjun> I downloaded the swfplayer and installed it.but i  still don't know how to use for firefox
[14:13] <Fuzzy> hey guys how to install icons?
[14:13] <homy> Deany: yes, it only has the opera browser. (And the game channel, mii channel, shop channel, weather channel and news channel).
[14:14] <remoteLAP> xiaojianjun: it does it automagically when you open a website with flash content nothing more to do
[14:14] <mr_bmh> I need the software convert the .mov to .wmv in my hardy Sir
[14:14] <Deany> homy, guess vidiscript is the best/only way then...  got my own setup of that too :)
[14:14] <remoteLAP> new_on_linux: to what purpose?
[14:14] <elmnas> Hi use conky now, and I have modifed the .conkeyrc but how do I remove the border, ? http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/1598/screenshotnu6.png
[14:14] <homy> Deany: can it also stream mp3 files? Do you have it working with the wii
[14:14] <JackWinter> anyone managed to get vmware to output sounds under 8.04 ?
[14:14] <matteo1990> remoteLAP: yea i got the basic intel one :  "Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express" thats the xorg row.
[14:14] <Deany> erm... yes
[14:15] <Deany> and pics
[14:15] <dsdeiz> hi, may i ask what the effect in compiz that is similar to the widgets in vista? :-/
[14:15] <pzy> hi
[14:15] <Deany> it acts like youtube... basically but you can upload mp3 and pics
[14:15] <Fuzzy> pls i have to hurry tell me how to install icons
[14:15] <Deany> takes some installing tho
[14:15] <remoteLAP> matteo1990: you might haver to attach the3 cable and the reboot in order for that to give an output to the hd
[14:16] <Deany> unless you are proficient with linux.
[14:16] <homy> Deany: does that mean I have to upload every mp3 file manually? Can I just point it to a directory on the server on which it is installed that contains all the music?
[14:16] <Deany> afraid so...
[14:16] <Deany> you upload like youtube..
[14:16] <Deany> lemme just check something, brb
[14:16] <mr_bmh> anyone tell me how to convert .mov to .wmv in Ubuntu?
[14:17] <remoteLAP> dsdeiz: you might wand to install desklets for that
[14:17] <pzy> today i installed ubuntu intrepid with kde4 and it all works fine, besides that global shortcuts that should start an application won't work, i've googled a bit there i found 1-2 solutions, but none works for me, also i'm not sure if it is an ubuntu or a kde4 issue, can somebody help me?
[14:17] <matteo1990> remoteLAP: i tried also rebooting, the resolution of my screen changes like he detected the other. But the tv gets no signal. I tried with a Projector and it worked instead...
[14:17] <error404notfound> anyone ever used smbspool?
[14:17] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: well buddy i cant help you if you dont answer my questions
[14:17] <homy> Deany: ok, so that doesn't make any sense. I mean, I'd have to upload hundreds of songs manually.
[14:17] <remoteLAP> matteo1990: in that case the problem is obviously homet at your tv
[14:17] <mick02> Alright folks, myself and a few friends were hoping to set up a VPN between a few different boxes (all with different ISP's) so we could share files. I was wondering if OpenVPN would be the best way to go or can someone suggest a different alernative
[14:17] <Starhero> Ok does anyone know of any like voice chat rooms for ppl that wanna learn linux or have isssues, I don't mean a service...i mean something like this but for fucks sake with voice!
[14:18] <paul68> asdfasdfasdf: 2 questions concerning your screenshot how do you get your icons like that at the bottom of your screen and the side bar with your system statistics?
[14:18] <Jack_Sparrow> !ohmy > Starhero
[14:18] <toddoon> how does it called the meta package for installing meta package such as lamp
[14:18] <asdfasdf> hi everybody, does anyone know how to run the migration assistant after installing ubuntu?
[14:18] <matteo1990> remoteLAP: it works great with the same computer and windows...
[14:18] <mr_bmh> remoteLap: Could you please give me the question again
[14:18] <Deany> so you need it to use flash to stream mp3?
[14:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Starhero, See also offtopic
[14:19] <Starhero> Who here has Teamspeak?
[14:20] <homy> Deany: yes. I also tried openening a playlist, mp3 or flv via the web browser but it said unsupported format. And java isn't supported either, only flash.
[14:20] <paul68> how do you get conky on your desktop?
[14:20] <Deany> so it has to be encoded then as flash
[14:20] <Uatec> so some of you might have heard last night, me talking about getting no audio out of my headphones, it's not quite that simple. i WAS getting audio out of the headphones, but it was being drowned out by the onboard speakers
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> paul68: sudo apt-get install conky
[14:21] <Uatec> the strange thing is now that my realtek sound card plays out of the headphones AND speakers at the same time, i haven't found any control to allow me to change the volume of the two outputs independently (i want to turn off the PC speakers if the headphones are plugged in)
[14:21] <ActionParsnip> paul68: then you will need to manually create ~/.conkyrc from the example one, or use one from online
[14:21] <mr_bmh> remoteLap: in the site has not the information for video converter
[14:21] <Uatec> has anybody had this behaviour using a realtek sound card and 8.10?
[14:21] <homy> Deany: there are some windows programs that stream to the wii (somehow encoding-on-the fly), but, well, they're not for linux/ubuntu.
[14:21] <mr_bmh> remoteLap: can you give me the name of software?
[14:21] <paul68> ActionParsnip: already done that where do I find these examples online?
[14:22] <candra> wawaxs
[14:22] <Deany> let me check this vidi with mp3
[14:22] <Uatec> homy, deany, have you thought about VLC? that transcodes on the fly to and from a million different things, you might find a way to configure that to do your thing...
[14:22] <ActionParsnip> paul68: websearch for conkyrc
[14:22] <paul68> ActionParsnip: ok
[14:22] <ahes_> hello ubuntu
[14:22] <Jack_Sparrow> candra, Hello, did you have a ubuntu support question for us
[14:22] <Mickmeister> I have a small issue here. Since modifying my Advanced Desktop Effects settings my machine has been reduced to an absolute crawl. It's on it's knees. Simply loading my IRC client took about 10 minutes.When I modified a couple of settings, the GUI vanished and displayed a black screen with random parts of colour. I rebooted and as soon as I logged in I'd be logged out again straight away. After 3 reboots I manage to g
[14:22] <Mickmeister> et in but the output on my display is all over the place, a 4th reboot gets the display working but leaves my system virtually at a standstill. I have since tried undoing the settings I have modified, but that hasn't worked. Does anybody have the vaguest idea why this is happening? Or what I can do to correct this issue?
[14:22] <homy> Uatec: can it transmit audio via flash so I can play it on the Nintendo Wii?
[14:23] <wawaxs> alo
[14:23] <Jack_Sparrow> !hi
[14:23] <ahes_> I got ubuntu-specific problem with mysql
[14:23] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: umm please dont write to me encryptet that causes problems here
[14:23] <ahes_> mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/my.cnf --print-defaults
[14:23] <ahes_> it  works fine
[14:23] <homy> !wii
[14:23] <ahes_> after copying file to another e.g.: cp /etc/mysql/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my2.cnf
[14:23] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: have you installed video drivers?
[14:23] <ahes_> I get
[14:24] <ahes_> # mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/my2.cnf --print-defaults
[14:24] <tritium> !enter | ahes_
[14:24] <ahes_> Could not open required defaults file: /etc/mysql/my2.cnf
[14:24] <ahes_> Fatal error in defaults handling. Program aborted
[14:24] <Jack_Sparrow> ahes_, Please keep your questions on one line,
[14:24] <mr_bmh> remoteLap: What the exactly software I need to install in my Ubuntu?
[14:24] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, no. It appeared to be modifying my Advanced Desktop Effects that caused this issue.
[14:24] <ahes_> ehh
[14:24] <ahes_> all right
[14:24] <ahes_> wait
[14:24] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: gimme a sec
[14:24] <Jack_Sparrow> ahes_, Please stop that
[14:25] <sevenseeker> if anyone uses sox, do you know if it links to the wavpack lib(s)?
[14:25] <matteo1990> hi all, i am having problems with connecting my laptop to my full HD with VGA cable. I tried with windows and with fn+f4 all worked good. I have Gutsy gibbon. Any tips?
[14:25] <feelshift> matteo1990: try inteprid ibex
[14:25] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, the system is literally crawling. Just loading the drop down menu for applications takes about 10 seconds.
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: then default what settings you have and add the settings one by one and testing, then build up until you have what you want. One setting will tip it over
[14:26] <shubbar> is there an open source program like Skype?
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> ekiga
[14:26] <shubbar> does Ekiga support video calls?
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: if you enable the prettys without installing your video card drivers it will perform badly
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> shubbar, not sure of the spelling
[14:26] <mr_bmh> Anyone can tell me how I can install the Gmencoder in Ubuntu 8.04
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> !info ekiga
[14:26] <ahes_> Command "mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/my.cnf --print-defaults" works fine. After changing file name by copying it from my.cnf to my2.cnf I get error "Could not open required defaults file: /etc/mysql/my2.cnf" after running mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/my2.cnf --print-defaults. File are the same, same permissions, same acls, same owner - exactly the same. Strace says "open("/etc/mysql/my2.cnf", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1
[14:27] <tritium> shubbar: absolutely
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> !info gmencoder
[14:27] <mr_bmh> I got the sourse but there need some independence
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: apt-cache search mencoder
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: compile the source, make sure you have te deps installed
[14:27] <shubbar> can i use Ekiga to call Skype users?
[14:27] <Jack_Sparrow> ahes_, check permissions on the new location
[14:27] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: theres this perl module: http://search.cpan.org/~allenday/FFmpeg-6036/FFmpeg.pm
[14:28] <ahes_> Jack_Sparrow: checked, ecatly the same
[14:28] <Jack_Sparrow> shubbar, Dont think so
[14:28] <aar> Hi, I'm running dosemu in Ubuntu 8.04. I want to upload a file from my desktop to the virtual c: directory. I have tried cp-ing to /etc/dosemu/drives/c , but nothing comes up in the DOS console. Where am I going wrong?
[14:28] <ahes_> Jack_Sparrow: could you try this in your ubuntu?
[14:28] <Jeruvy> ahes_: what was the cp command you used?  Likely didn't move permissions.
[14:28] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, I have enabled my video card and ran the most fancy desktop effects with no difference in performance for a long time.
[14:28] <shubbar> i installed Skype but the video isn't working in it, in Ekiga it works, but havn't used it yet
[14:28] <linuxman410> shubbar there is one like skype called gizmo
[14:28] <olifox> hi all - i've got some csv files whose mimetype is somehow set to "audio/mpeg". if i open the file in text editor and write it to a new file, its type shows up correctly as ascii/plain text - is there a command line way of doing that?
[14:28] <mr_bmh> remoteLAP: okie thanks. Once more question, I have try to compile the Gmencoder source
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: ok thats a good sign
[14:29] <ahes_> Jeruvy: just cp my.cnf my2.cnf

[14:29] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh:  wha is that?
[14:30] <Jeruvy> ahes_: ah ok, should use --preserve

[14:31] <ahes_> Jeruvy: the same problem after using --preserve
[14:31] <ahes_> Jeruvy: could you check in your system?
[14:31] <mr_bmh> remoteLAP: checking for libgnomeui-2.0... Package libgnomeui-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libgnomeui-2.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'libgnomeui-2.0' found
[14:31] <mr_bmh> configure: error: Library requirements (libgnomeui-2.0) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.
[14:31] <frostschutz> how to get a list of files of a package? (command line)
[14:32] <Pici> frostschutz: dpkg -S packagename
[14:32] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh:  what does dpkg -l libgnomeui-2.0 return?
[14:32] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, okay then now the toolbar at the top of my windows have vanished. So the minimize and the close X etc etc for every window.
[14:32] <mr_bmh> I donot know
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: ok then add a single effect and run it for 10 mins to test its ok, if its good, add another
[14:33] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: umm you need to enter that in a console
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: you on an nvidia gfx card?
[14:33] <mr_bmh> RemoteLAP: correct, I am do it in terminal
[14:33] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, I'm not entirely sure. I think so yeah, if I remember rightly.
[14:34] <mr_bmh> RemoteLAP: can you help me to build it in Ubuntu 8.04
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: lspci | grep -i vga
[14:34] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, it's a factory installed GFX card built into an Intel Inspiron 530.
[14:34] <unomi> hi, ive installed java-6-sun, does that automagically create a $JAVA_HOME for me?
[14:34] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: you need to enter the command dpkg -l libgnomeui-2.0 into a console
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: the command wil tell you
[14:34] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: thaqt tells you if you have that package installed
[14:34] <mr_bmh> remoteLAP: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=77186

[14:35] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: ok
[14:35] <Jeruvy> ahes_: what are the permissions for my.cnf or my2.cnf?
[14:35] <mr_bmh> remoteLAP: please wait, I check it
[14:35] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: your cpompile process tells you that you are missing prerequisites to compile
[14:35] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: sure
[14:35] <Jack_Sparrow> shubbar, Out of Date? !latest: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit.
[14:36] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: have a websearch for the card and see if there are any options you can set
[14:36] <homy> Deany: you still there?
[14:36] <shubbar> thanks Jack_Sparrow, sometimes i get lost searching for the latest
[14:36] <jdangerous> cann anyone tell me what package i shuld be installing for an ATI FireMV 2250 PCIe card, i used FirePro_8.543_Linux_71557.zip but it didnt work for me
[14:37] <Absolute0> I am thinking of getting a new laptop, which manufacturer is best for linux/ubuntu os?
[14:37] <mr_bmh> remoteLAP:  apt-get install libgnomeui-2.0
[14:37] <mr_bmh> Reading package lists... Done
[14:37] <mr_bmh> Building dependency tree
[14:37] <mr_bmh> Reading state information... Done
[14:37] <mr_bmh> E: Couldn't find package libgnomeui-2.0
[14:37] <FloodBot2> mr_bmh: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:37] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: exactly
[14:37] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: ah ok gimme a sec
[14:37] <ahes_> Jeruvy: the same, http://pastebin.com/m4b7de192
[14:37] <Deany> homy, yes but i dont have any idea other than VLC like he said
[14:37] <shubbar> jack_sparrow, even in Ubuntu, i went for the latest and upgraded to 8.10 and lost my graphic 3d acceleration
[14:37] <homy> Deany: how vlc?
[14:37] <Starhero> I have teamspeak server waiting for anyone that wants to get away from this text chat bull and use something alot more easier to help and get help to and from ppl.
[14:38] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, I have just reset the defaults and have my toolbars back. Performance appears to be 70% of what is originally was.
[14:38] <homy> Deany: does it supply a web interface?
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: sounds like you have a lot to do man
[14:38] <matteo1990> hi all, i am having problems with connecting my laptop to my full HD with VGA cable. I tried with windows and with fn+f4 all worked good. I have Gutsy gibbon. Any tips? I think the problem is simply with the (fn+f4 key that switch screen) in ubuntu i haven't it... DO u know how to emulate its effect or to replace it? thx
[14:38] <Jack_Sparrow> shubbar, LEarn to compile your own, learn to package for others but first of all please learn how to backup as learning the other two will mean you will need the last
[14:38] <Starhero> not only am i doing this for everyone else, i am doing this cuz  i am bored and i don't have a soul to TALK to about linux and am craving more info
[14:38] <coky> hi all
[14:38] <Deany> you stream with it, using HTTP
[14:38] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: have a look at this: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=libgnomeui&mode=filename&suite=intrepid&arch=any
[14:38] <coky> anyone use totem?
[14:38] <Deany> so you enter the url into your wii browser.
[14:39] <Deany> and it should play
[14:39] <coky> how ti enable ssa subtitle?
[14:39] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, yeah sure does. I don't know what went wrong, I enabled one setting and them BOOM! Graphical display gone in an instant. I didn't understand the logging me out as soon as I logged in either, I thought that was quite strange.
[14:39] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: i cant tell exactly what package it is but pick the nevest versions and maybe also install a.dev version
[14:39] <Jack_Sparrow> shubbar, If you installed the drivers manually and did a kernel update you will probably need to reinstall the drivers like you did before
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: you may need an extra package to stop windows decorations vanishing
[14:39] <mr_bmh> remoteLAP: What i need to do? There are many libs
[14:40] <Jeruvy> ahes_: and the result of the mysqld?
[14:40] <Derf_the_> Hi all
[14:40] <mr_bmh> RemoteLAP: could you please compile the Gmencoder in Ubuntu and give the link I download it? Thansk
[14:40] <Jeruvy> ahes_: the permissions do look fine
[14:40] <Jack_Sparrow> shubbar,  May I pm you for a sec
[14:41] <ahes_> Jeruvy: Could not open required defaults file: /etc/mysql/my2.cnf
[14:41] <homy> Well, too bad I can't play my music collection on the wii then. Well, anyways, thanks for your help.
[14:41] <remoteLAP> mr_bmh: well as said i dunno which exacly search through it an lokk for the newest versions
[14:42] <error404notfound> how can I change a ps file from portrait to landscaoe

[14:42] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, I'm seriously just considering a complete back-up and format.
[14:42] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: its an option
[14:43] <Mudf1apMike> I've installed postfix for the purposes of only sending outgoing mails via php scripts. Everything works great except for when I try to send an email to the same domain that postfix has set as the hostname.. I get a bounceback message saying that the mailbox doesn't exist (loopsback to myself). How can I convince postfix that it is not the real incoming mailserver?
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: you could make a new user to try with a blank set of settings maybe
[14:43] <mr_bmh> anyone has successfuly install Gmencoder in Hardy?
[14:43] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, a final option, the one I'd like to avoid most. I have major issues with installing Linux distro's on my machine you see because of a hardware compatibility issue. Took me ages to get the damn thing running.
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> Mickmeister: try the new user, then you can see hwat settings are good
[14:44] <Derf_the_> I have locked up everything on my U8.10 actual visible desktop; ie there are no icons showing on the desktop and the Right & Left buttons do nothing only when on actual desktop.
[14:44] <Mickmeister> ActionParsnip, I think Dell made their own Linux Ubuntu 7.04 release with a patch to fix the hardware issues. I have that on CD-R somewhere, I hope.
[14:45] <mr_bmh> Anyone done the synchronization between windows mobile with Ubuntu? What the driver need for to do it?
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: theres a debian deb but its not advised to install it
[14:45] <Derf_the_> Anyone have any ideas how I did that?
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: let me see if i can dig up an ubuntu deb

[14:46] <KenSentMe> I'm having trouble installing an Adobe Air program on Ubuntu 8.10 (tweetdeck). I tried the tips from Adobe, but air still says my AIR file is damaged. Anyone have a hint on what to do to solve this?
[14:46] <mr_bmh> ActionParsnip: Please help me
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: i wouldnt advise using it, the developer isnt supporting it anymore
[14:47] <Derf_the_> The icons all show in a file manager window and the permissions are all normal.
[14:47] <shubbar> jack_sparrow, ill be back in 15 min

[14:49] <mr_bmh> ActionParsnip: I aslo try to compile the Gmencoder after install the mencoder. It does not work
[14:49] <citoy3n> a few days ago my numerical keypad stopped working, is this a known problem? (8.10)

[14:50] <N-A> ActionParsnip: Yes, but I wan't it to do it in general

[14:50] <brotherhand> can anybody tell me how to access the restricted drivers manager?
[14:50] <N-A> ActionParsnip: so I want to replace the original wine executable with this script

[14:51] <N-A> sipior: Cool, how do I find the original location of wine?
[14:51] <ActionParsnip> N-A: you can alias the command
[14:51] <brotherhand> thanks
[14:51] <Jeruvy> ahes_: I tried it and it works fine.
[14:51] <sipior> N-A: "which wine"
[14:51] <ahes_> Jeruvy: mysql --version

I think the problem is simply with the (fn+f4 key that switch screen) in ubuntu i haven't it... DO u know how to emulate its effect or to replace it? thx
[14:51] <Jeruvy> !info mysql
[14:52] <unr3a1> dinesh372: sudo apt-get install vlc
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: compile the app using the source on sourceforge
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> mr_bmh: http://gmencoder.sourceforge.net/
[14:52] <ahes_> !info mysql-server-5.0

[14:52] <Jeruvy> ahes_: 5.0.51a
[14:53] <N-A> sipior: what right do I need to set on the script? 777?
[14:53] <akravets> When Ubuntu 8.10 was released I tried to install it on my Lenovo T61: install went fine but wireless would not work - the system would just halt after about 10 min of use. Has anybody with T61 tried to install updated 8.10 with wireless working?
[14:53] <ahes_> Jeruvy: not 5.0.67?
[14:53] <sipior> N-A: just chmod u+x should do fine
[14:53] <dsdeiz> lol, i don't know how to install a theme.. may i ask how? :D
[14:53] <N-A> sipior: Thx!
[14:53] <rootmentor> whats that traffic on "cat /proc/kcore ?
[14:53] <Derf_the__>  I have locked up everything on my U8.10 actual visible desktop; ie there are no icons showing on the desktop and the Right & Left buttons do nothing only when on actual desktop.  The permissions are fine and everything is there from a file manager; so how do I get back to normal?
[14:53] <localt> Hello, I want to use Ubuntu 8.04 desktop. I've done the install, noticed that the machine comes up already using ~ 500MB RAM, anyone got tips on how to decrease the memory usage?
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> Derf_the_does an x restart )ctrl + alt + backspace) make it ok?
[14:54] <ahes_> Jeruvy: I will report a bug in ubuntu launchpad.
[14:54] <sipior> guess it did :-)
[14:54] <ahes_> Jeruvy: and we will see whether it's ubuntu or mysql bug ;)
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> localt: mem usage will be high as its used as disk cache, as apps need it it will be decreased to make room for the app
[14:54] <Jeruvy> ahes_: good idea.  It doesn't look like a mysql bug
[14:54] <brotherhand> dsdeiz: go to system>preferences>appearance. any themes you have downloaded you can simply drag and drop into the window that displays what themes are available
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> localt: top will show you the ram usage and what apps are using it
[14:55] <dinesh372> UNr3al: i tried sudo apt-get install vlc but it says some package cannot be installed
[14:55] <dsdeiz> i don't know what the .emerald is about.. any ideas? :-/
[14:55] <unr3a1> dinesh372: what package?
[14:55] <easyfit> this might be a pretty particular question... but does anyone know how to pass arguments to sshfs when you're doing the mounting in fstab? I need to specify the port since I don't use 22 for SSH on the target machine... but I can't figure out how to specify that through fstabs syntax, if it is at all possible
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> dsdeiz: its an emerald theme
[14:56] <N-A> sipior: I get permission denied, -rwxr--r-- 1 root root 25 2009-01-21 15:54 wine

[14:56] <nbah> Hi all,  using fluxbox, I can't get to ttys. Pressing Ctrl-Alt-Fn doesn't work... ?
[14:57] <unr3a1> dinesh372: copy everything that you see and paste it here:  http://www.rafb.net/paste/
[14:57] <sipior> N-A: well, first, don't call the script "wine", because there is already an executable by that name. second, why is the file owned by root?
[14:57] <unr3a1> dinesh372: then provide the link to the paste
[14:57] <N-A> sipior: I renamed wine to wine.org
[14:57] <N-A> sipior: And the file is owned by root because I had to sudo nano wine to have permission to create the file
[14:57] <dinesh372> unr3al: which link
[14:57] <sipior> N-A: don't do that...
[14:58] <sipior> N-A: best to create the script with your username. really :-)
[14:58] <linuxman410> kensentme what app in adobe air
[14:58] <N-A> sipior: OK but then how do I get the wine command to run aoos wine
[14:58] <ActionParsnip> localt: if you read the screen it will sow you the apps using it, you'll find most of the 500mb is used for disk cache
[14:58] <KenSentMe> Linuturk, tweetdeck
[14:58] <ActionParsnip> localt: unused ram is wasted ram in linux
[14:58] <dinesh372> unr3al:  i am sending u the result on executing the command

[14:59] <mrjohnsen> I can't enable compiz after updating the xserver-xorg-intel package today. What to do?
[14:59] <N-A> sipior: Yes, but I need wine to run aoss wine, since whenever i install something in wine it creates a/several shortcut(s) and I want them to work, without having to change them all
[14:59] <sipior> N-A: what i typically do is keep scripts in /home/<username>/bin, and just add that directory to my path
[14:59] <dad_> Hi Don_Miguel, .dmrc was ignored on x restart, I'm just having a look at what that is now.
[14:59] <dsdeiz> uhm, i've already installed the theme but i'm not sure how to use it.. :-/
[15:00] <eikichi> Hello my newly installed ubuntu use 900Mo in RAM is it normal ?
[15:00] <N-A> sipior: Could I then get the files in /home/... to take precedence over /usr/bin?
[15:00] <dinesh372> unr3al: i had send you the output on runnu=ing the command sudo apt-get install vlc
[15:00] <hwilde> hey everybody :)    I have two monitors running separate xscreens.  why can't I open firefox on both xscreens?
[15:00] <N-A> sipior: For that user, that is
[15:00] <dsdeiz> it  isn't listed in Appearance > Themes :-/
[15:00] <Deany> localt, there is a lot of gunk (I personally) dont need in sessions and services... saved a lot disabling em

[15:00] <raven> hi
[15:01] <ActionParsnip> localt: server edition doesnt have a big fat x server
[15:01] <Uatec> has a small X server?
[15:01] <Linuturk> KenSentMe: :)
[15:01] <hwilde> !server | Uatec
[15:02] <raven> could anyone tell me how to "install" partimage with an 8.10 live cd session??
[15:02] <localt> yea, I guess you're right
[15:02] <N-A> sipior: how do I do that? And how do I know which has precedence? (So if there are two files with the same name in both folders the one in /home/... wil get executed and not the one in /usr/bin)
[15:02] <linuxman410> kensentme i just installed it worked fine
[15:02] <bridawson> hi everyone
[15:02] <KenSentMe> Linuturk, sorry :)
[15:02] <ActionParsnip> localt: if the system is running ok then the system is running the ram as disk cache to improve hdd speed
[15:02] <KenSentMe> linuxman410, hmm, i tried deleting all the air stuff in my home, but didnt help
[15:02] <dinesh372> how to install vlc player in ubuntu
[15:02] <bridawson> i just installed Ubuntu 8.10.  But i need help with the xorg.conf file so it can see both my monitors.
[15:03] <mrjohnsen> I can't enable compiz after updating the xserver-xorg-intel package today. What to do?
[15:03] <Uatec> hwilde, i was just being silly, picking up on the seize of the xserver rather than it's presence :P
[15:03] <raven> could anyone tell me how to "install" partimage with an 8.10 live cd session and to use it this way???
[15:03] <linuxman410> kensentme the only diffrence is i am running 9.04 instead of 8.10 ubuntu
[15:03] <sipior> N-A: well, just put this in your .bashrc: "export PATH=/home/N-A/bin:${PATH}", and everything in /home/N-A/bin will be run first. another option is to leave the /usr/bin/wine script in place, change the permissions with chmod o+x, and make sure it points to the real wine binary.
[15:03] <dinesh372> how to install vlc player in ubuntu
[15:04] <Deany> raven, what do you want to do
[15:04] <localt> thanks ActionPrasnip
[15:04] <unr3a1> dinesh372:  I am trying to help you, but you gotta help me get the errors that you are seeing.  paste what you are seeing to that link that I sent you
[15:04] <raven> dinesh: use synapics, it's in the list
[15:04] <N-A> sipior: Your solution with /home/... sounds cleaner, right?
[15:04] <unr3a1> dinesh372: http://www.rafb.net/paste/
[15:04] <sipior> N-A: either way.
[15:04] <raven> deany: backup my partition
[15:04] <DarkKnight> hey can anyone tell me a good editor for C and C++ where i can compile and execute comfortably
[15:04] <KenSentMe> linuxman410, shouldnt make a difference i think. Air installes fine
[15:05] <N-A> sipior: is .bashrc in my home dir?
[15:05] <sipior> N-A: yep
[15:05] <Deany> raven, well try out clonezilla then... uses partimage and other tools..
[15:05] <Deany> and is livecd
[15:05] <linuxman410> kensentme i just told it to install when i click on it and it did
[15:05] <Linuturk> KenSentMe: no problem. I just started using twitter too . . . lol
[15:05] <raven> isn't it possible to boot from the ubuntu 8.10 cd and "install" partimage?
[15:06] <raven> i mean like apt-get install partimage... something like that
[15:07] <step93> [ ][ ][ ] OlA CoMpAgNeRoS Di #ubuntu [ ][ ][ ]
[15:07] <N-A> sipior: Should that export line be added somewhere specific in .bashrc? or should I just append it at the bottom?
[15:07] <Deany> you need to unmount the partition you wanna backup tho
[15:07] <phanbt> hi guys what's the best way to downgrade to 2.6.24-7 kernel?
[15:07] <dinesh372> raven: synaptics asking for mark additional require changes
[15:07] <wers> i need to make a pie chart for my statistics class. is there a pie chart maker for ubuntu? :)
[15:07] <sipior> N-A: makes no difference. at the bottom is fine.
[15:07] <N-A> sipior: OK, thanks again :)
[15:08] <Deany> hence clonezilla
[15:08] <ezerhoden> phanbt: apt-pinning ?
[15:08] <raven> dinesh did you choose "every source"?
[15:08] <phanbt> ezerhoden: apt-get doesn't have it
[15:08] <albuntu> wers: sorry if i misunderstood but if you want to make charts you can try openoffice spreadsheet
[15:08] <kenalex> do any of you guys virtual windows on your ubuntu desktops ?
[15:08] <wcdl> does anyone knows how to get photoshop cs3 working under wine 1.1.13?
[15:08] <wers> oh nice. i'll try that albuntu :)
[15:09] <raven> deany the required partition is my boot partition. i read on http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/partimage that it is possible too boot up from live cd and then temporarily install partimage for that session
[15:09] <dinesh372> raven: Depends: vlc-nox but it is not going to be installed
[15:09] <raven> but how?
[15:09] <unr3a1> raven: dinesh is getting an error when he tries to install vlc that tells him that one of the apps required to install vlc cannot be installed
[15:09] <Deany> yes, and clonezilla does this, Live...
[15:09] <SlimeyPete> wcdl: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=6584
[15:09] <raven> sry
[15:09] <SlimeyPete> wcdl: short answer is "it doesn't work", I think
[15:09] <Deany> its made for this purpose
[15:10] <wcdl> according to this link it works
[15:10] <raven> ok thanks i'll try
[15:11] <SlimeyPete> ah, yeah, I msiread
[15:11] <SlimeyPete> anyway, try those instructions
[15:12] <wcdl> im trying but no luck
[15:12] <albuntu> wcdl what about using it with virtualbox ? its just an idea
[15:13] <linuxman410> kensentme i notice alot of things just run in9.04 that i could not get to run in 8.10 i know 9.04 is still  in alpha though that is why i dual boot 9.04 and 8.10
[15:13] <hwilde> ok so why can I only open firefox in one xserver at a time, when I can open almost any other program in both
[15:13] <wcdl> i already have it in virtualbox, but natively is better
[15:13] <wcdl> i think
[15:14] <laeg> has anyone had issues with bluetooth on ubuntu?
[15:14] <Deany> wcdl, is using an earlier version an option
[15:14] <hmw> when i type "gnome-terminal --geometry=120x35" from command line, it works. how can i make it work in the applications menu, too? (it is ignored there)
[15:14] <N-A> sipior: Hmm, it doesn't appear to work, it doesn't look like it is running the script, but just the /usr/bin/wine file directly
[15:14] <Deany> im still on version 7 :)  works tho
[15:14] <albuntu> wcdl: i dont know. if you really need photoshop you can try 7. i know for sure that it works
[15:14] <KenSentMe> linuxman410, hmm, i dont want to run 9.04 now and dont link dual boot, lets see if others have managed to run it on 8.10
[15:14] <sipior> N-A: you'll need to restart your terminal...
[15:14] <N-A> sipior: I did, and /home/user/bin is at the start of the PATH variable
[15:14] <linuxman410> kentsentme that is fine just a suggestion
[15:15] <sipior> N-A: you've replaced "user" with your own username, right?
[15:15] <wcdl> albuntu i have cs2 installed and working well, but i want the cs3 cause it haa somethings that cs2 hasn't
[15:15] <N-A> sipior: yes
[15:15] <ubuntuteen> i want help
[15:15] <sipior> N-A: what does "which wine" output?
[15:16] <N-A> if I go into ~/bin and run ./wine it runs the script
[15:16] <ubuntuteen> my intex tv tuner
[15:16] <N-A> /home/user/bin/wine
[15:16] <Mudf1apMike> Can someone point me in the right direction? I'm trying to configure postfix so that mail sent from itself does not get intercepted if it is to the same domain.. I'm getting a 'loops back to itself' undeliverable error because it thinks that it is the final destination when the mxrecord says otherwise
[15:16] <N-A> sipior: /home/user/bin/wine
[15:16] <albuntu> wcdl: ah ok. i never tried but whats the problem by the way ? because getting installed cs2 and cant install cs3 it seems strange to me. i didnt thought it might have problem
[15:16] <sipior> N-A: and the exact error you get is?
[15:16] <james296> can anyone here help me change the menu icon next to the Applications area?
[15:16] <N-A> sipior: I don't get any error, it just runs wine
[15:17] <N-A> sipior: without aoss
[15:17] <Irfan> please solve my problem
[15:17] <wcdl> cs2 is easy to install as in windows but cs3 is to hard to install

[15:18] <wcdl> i already done that
[15:18] <hmw> james296 thats a little tricky; you will have to tweak the theme, some files and scripts in a folder somewhere. google for making your own metacity theme
[15:18] <Guest90689> help ,e
[15:19] <wcdl> and the output has a lot of "fixme"
[15:19] <ubuntuteen> plz guys
[15:19] <james296> just for one icon?
[15:19] <albuntu> james296: i dont know if i remember it exactly but if i am not wrong the name of the icon is something like gnome-desktop-icon or something like that. i think you can find it in /usr/share/gnome/ try finding it and replace it
[15:19] <linuxman410> guest90689 what u need
[15:19] <ubuntuteen> help
[15:19] <james296> damn...
[15:19] <Boohbah> ubuntuteen: mythbuntu

[15:19] <sipior> N-A: ~/bin/wine (note the tilde...)
[15:19] <hwilde> I have two monitors running separate xscreens, why can I only open firefox in one at a time?
[15:20] <albuntu> james create your own and replace it with sudo cp by terminal
[15:20] <N-A> sipior: Yeah I did copy and paste :-S
[15:20] <sipior> N-A: yeah, typed it wrong, apologies
[15:20] <hmw> james296 maybe using a downloadable theme will do it - google for e.g. "art gnome" or "gnome desktop theme"
[15:20] <sky_> why i cant kill Opera ? :(
[15:20] <albuntu> hmw: no it is changeable even without the theme.
[15:20] <ubuntuteen> plz help any one i want to know how to watch tv in ubuntu . i am having intex tv tuner card

[15:21] <ubuntuteen> plz help any one i want to know how to watch tv in ubuntu . i am having intex tv tuner card
[15:21] <Boohbah> ubuntuteen: mythtv + ubuntu = mythbuntu
[15:21] <rww> !repeat | ubuntuteen
[15:21] <sipior> ubuntuteen: a piece of advice: asking every ten seconds just makes us despise you.
[15:21] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntuteen, Please dont repeat we see your question
[15:21] <sky_> Anyone know why i cant kill Opera process ? (is not responding :X
[15:21] <Jack_Sparrow> !mythtv
[15:21] <Boohbah> sky_: kill -9 $PID
[15:21] <albuntu> hmw: yes. but he already has the theme. if he has human theme he can change it directly there
[15:21] <Uatec> sky_, how are you trying to kill it?
[15:22] <ubuntuteen> hay jack_sparrow
[15:22] <Uatec> ooo sky_, cooles little tool in the world

[15:22] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntuteen, Then you should know I am a stickler for staying on topic..  :)
[15:22] <albuntu> james296: ok here is the way
[15:22] <hmw> albuntu - maybe you can tell me something: i want the inactive windows to have a colored title bar, too. (human theme) in its default, inactive windows look so "flat"... didnt find a theme, what would look like i wnat
[15:22] <ubuntuteen> well i dont much
[15:23] <ubuntuteen> what is that mean

[15:24] <james296> did that
[15:24] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntuteen, Please read the link we provided on mythtv
[15:24] <albuntu> james296: check the option "use custom icon" and select your icon
[15:24] <rww> DasEi: Is Tools > Preferences > Sounds set correctly?
[15:24] <ubuntuteen> i use intex tv tuner card jack_sparroe
[15:24] <albuntu> james296: you have to find menu-object there
[15:24] <james296> but theres nothing there...
[15:24] <rww> DasEi: (Pidgin preferences, that is)
[15:24] <DasEi> ubuntuteen: install tvtime
[15:25] <md22> hello
[15:25] <N-A> sipior: I added an echo command to the start of the script, just to be absolutely certain it isn't running the script. It isn't unless I explicitly specify the path. :-S
[15:25] <albuntu> james296: find menu-object and select the option "use custom icon" and select your own
[15:25] <ubuntuteen> will that do the job for me
[15:25] <tritium> ubuntuteen: if your card is supported on linux, it iwll
[15:25] <tritium> will*
[15:25] <hmw> albuntu i dont have "menu-object" there, neither. only "menu_path"
[15:25] <DasEi> rww: checked that before, (and had it working, then stopped for no reason), test doesn't sound, rest of soundsys is fine
[15:25] <sipior> N-A: well, call the script something else, i guess
[15:25] <james296> I found it under browser_launcher_screen0
[15:25] <ubuntuteen> thank u tritium and dasei
[15:25] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntuteen, there are several ways to   do it..  verify your card is supported
[15:26] <ubuntuteen> how
[15:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardware
[15:26] <james296> also menu_bar_screen0
[15:26] <hmw> albuntu but there is "use custom icon" and "custon_icon"!! james296
[15:26] <DasEi> !who | ubuntuteen
[15:26] <Loof> Anyone know how to get the 'Terminal Service Client' to stop retrying on disconnect or close?
[15:26] <tritium> ubuntuteen: linuxtv.org has an wiki page you can check
[15:26] <rww> DasEi: Hrm. Closing and reopening pidgin sometimes helps that, or playing with the Method setting on that page.
[15:26] <Jeruvy> !patience | ubuntuteen
[15:26] <albuntu> james296: let me check one minute
[15:26] <james296> yes
[15:27] <DasEi> rww: neither alsa or automatic fixed it, very bad not to get sound on a reply
[15:27] <alisson> alguem brazuca
[15:27] <albuntu> james296: ok do this in terminal : locate distributor-logo
[15:27] <ubuntuteen> ok thank you very much
[15:27] <DasEi> ubuntuteen: sudo apt-get install tvtime
[15:27] <ubuntuteen> i got it
[15:27] <rww> DasEi: yeah, it is somewhat annoying. I'm not on an Ubuntu system right now, so I can't check my settings for it.
[15:27] <PsynoKhi0> hi, I'm looking for anyone with some experience with Kino
[15:28] <alisson> brasileiros cade????
[15:28] <tritium> !br
[15:28] <james296> done
[15:28] <N-A> sipior: Yes, well, what I was hoping to achieve was to get the wine command to run: aoss wine $1 so just renaming it really doesn't achieve what I was going for. Maybe I'll have to rename the wine executable? I just find it strange that "which wine" returns the script file, yet it's not what gets run when I type "wine" in the console???
[15:28] <albuntu> james296: find the path to the logo of your theme. the one that you are using. and replace it there. you can use in terminal : sudo cp /path/to your logo.svg /path/to the logo in the theme.svg
[15:28] <sipior> N-A: what username are you currently running under?
[15:28] <Deany> think im gonna format my home to jfs, ext3 makes things  painful to use when extracting a dvd packed as rar, is it just a matter of booting livecd and copying my entire home folder to external, formatting, copying back and fixing fstab?
[15:29] <N-A> sipior: PM?
[15:29] <sipior> N-A: sure
[15:29] <james296> well Im only using Human-Clearlooks with the GNOME-Human iconset
[15:29] <ubuntuteen> thank u very much dasei.
[15:29] <DasEi> rww: also when I did a purge-remove, reinstalling pidgin came up with all my preseeds (chats, nicknames) too, so config wasn't erased
[15:29] <albuntu> james296: i found mine in /home/snake/.icons/hydroxygen/22x22/places/distributor-logo.png
[15:30] <tritium> DasEi: naturally.
[15:30] <james296> it needs to be 24x24
[15:30] <xujun> hello
[15:30] <DasEi> ubuntuteen: if you run tvtime, card found ?
[15:30] <albuntu> james296: so try checking yours in .icons folder. and look carefully to your size. i dont know what size ar you using
[15:30] <rww> DasEi: per-user configurations aren't removed by purging the package. To remove your per-user configuration for Pidgin, delete the .purple directory in your home directory.
[15:30] <dinesh372> how to play songs using terminal
[15:31] <albuntu> james296: if it has to be 24X24 than change that one
[15:31] <xujun> mplayer
[15:31] <james296> it still wont work I tried it and had the gnome panel refreshed
[15:31] <DasEi> rww: will try this later, thank you
[15:31] <oCean_> dinesh372: you're back! We told you yesterday :)
[15:31] <hmw> james296 i had to log out
[15:32] <albuntu> james296: it worked for me in this way. i had the gnome foot before and i have the ubuntu logo now
[15:32] <dinesh372> oCean: i am unable to solve the problem
[15:32] <|neon|> i am finding that is very hard to setup dual monitors under intrepid, i'm using nvidia-settings but the only i canget is twin view , can not get "separate x screens" to work
[15:32] <alisson> como instalar GTK+ ubuntu 8.10
[15:32] <james296> OH wait
[15:32] <oCean_> dinesh372: I don't understand. You told us sound works. I told you to install mpg123
[15:32] <alisson> os temas nao funcionam
[15:33] <Deany> whats that limewire clone for gnome? forgot
[15:33] <james296> should I remove the index.theme file in the gnome-human folder?
[15:33] <rww> !gnutella | Deany

[15:34] <dinesh372> OCean: i am new to linux so donot know how to install
[15:34] <tritium> ubuntuteen: go to the linuxtv.org wiki page I told you about, and verify that your card is supported
[15:34] <james296> ok Im gonna try it

[15:34] <ubuntuteen> yes i started the application
[15:34] <oCean_> dinesh372: we also told you how to do that. Use "sudo apt-get install mpg123"
[15:34] <albuntu> james296: dont do it. i know you have to do some command to update the icons but i dont remember it
[15:34] <james296> why not
[15:35] <ubuntuteen> dasei: i started application but i cant see the tv working
[15:35] <DasEi> ubuntuteen: what happens ?
[15:35] <ubuntuteen> daseii dont know

[15:38] <albuntu> james296: i am happy for you :)
[15:38] <ubuntuteen> dasei:dont mind plz help me naa
[15:38] <james296> now I dunno which should be better, the Gnome foot or the Ubuntu logo...lol
[15:39] <albuntu> james296: i use the ubuntu logo. :)
[15:39] <DasEi> ubuntuteen:right click on the screen, set the correct -TV norm, -input , start channel-search
[15:39] <james296> dont you think the Ubuntu logo is a lil right centered?
[15:40] <albuntu> james296: yes. it seems a little more near to the menu
[15:40] <Sh4mmah> Hello guys
[15:41] <ubuntuteen> dasei: in input configuration i didnt find channel seach
[15:41] <oCean__> dinesh372: sorry, had connection error. Did it work?
[15:41] <DasEi> ubuntuteen:sudo lspci | grep video                                    , which card ?
[15:41] <dinesh372> oCean: what happen

[15:41] <xakep_inc> Hey guys.. I was wondering if someone might be able to help me out with a postfix config problem
[15:41] <xakep_inc> I spent two days on it already with no results almost
[15:41] <nix_> sorry, disconnected
[15:41] <oCean__> dinesh372: sorry.. disconnected :( You should be able to use command "mpg123 song.mp3"
[15:41] <DasEi> ubuntuteen:tvtime's  menu is self-explaining, play around a little
[15:41] <nix_> repeat: hi all, do you know how to prevent network-manager to disconnect wlan when logging off?
[15:42] <jtaji> james296: it's an optical illusion because there's more weight on the right of the logo, it's centered, notice when you open the app menu all the icons are on the same center
[15:42] <wayne> can someone give me the link too setting up multimedia
[15:43] <james296> damn optical illusions...lmao
[15:43] <nix_> also: do you know what the "system settings" checkbox means, given that it's unresponsive
[15:44] <ubuntuteen> dasei:the above command which u gave seems not working
[15:44] <nix_> I'm talking about stock Ubuntu 8.10 Network Manager version 0.7.0
[15:45] <ubuntuteen> dasei:when agian i started the apllication it stated with blue screen then turned balck
[15:45] <oCean__> dinesh372: did it work
[15:45] <ackbahr> Hi folks! I'm about to flush my Ubuntu 8.04 and try 8.10 (I have the opportunity as I've messed everything up). I want to backup my personnal data, it's supposedly all in /home, right?
[15:45] <DasEi> ubuntuteen:then search for your card in the out from :  sudo lspci | less
[15:46] <DasEi> ubuntuteen:good sign, dig tvtimes menu
[15:46] <rww> ackbahr: yup, assuming you didn't make an effort to throw it all over the filesystem
[15:47] <ubuntuteen> dasei: i got output
[15:47] <xakep_inc> I have a problem configuring postfix.. I followed the tutorial on the ubuntu web page, but it didn't quite work. I have 4 different IP addresses configured on the same machine with 4 different domain names associated with it. I use ip virtual hosts and named hosts in apache and they all work like a charm. Now I tried to set up postfix.. But it is working only partially..
[15:47] <xakep_inc> It complains that "unable to use my hostname"
[15:47] <nix_> ackbahr: I suggest you to backup also /etc, it may contain useful, hard earned, system settings.
[15:47] <xakep_inc> And I can only send mail and not receive

[15:48] <dinesh372> oCean: now how to use the player i am able to install it
[15:48] <ubuntuteen> dasei:it is philips semiconductors SAA7130 video broadcast decoder
[15:48] <xakep_inc> nope.. didn't know it exists
[15:48] <xakep_inc> I'll try that
[15:48] <xakep_inc> thanx :)

[15:50] <rww> wayne: what do you mean by "multimedia support"?
[15:50] <oCean__> dinesh372: are you rockin' already!?
[15:51] <wayne> rww, playing dvds, mp3 and windows codexs and such
[15:51] <xakep_inc> oCean_: the postfix chan looks kinda empty
[15:51] <rochdi> Hi ALL
[15:51] <xakep_inc> Don't see many people talking there..
[15:51] <rww> !restricted | wayne: oh, restricted formats
[15:51] <wayne> ty sir. !
[15:51] <oCean__> xakep_inc: they're all asleep? Sorry, thought they might help out.
[15:51] <rochdi> I want to install Hylafax+Avantfax on Ubuntu HArdy
[15:51] <rochdi> can you help me
[15:51] <xakep_inc> I see
[15:51] <rww> xakep_inc: most other channels aren't as busy as this one; it might take a while for someone to answer ;)
[15:52] <flamoot> why won't any of the mirrors in the expert install for my ubuntu 5.10 cd work
[15:52] <xakep_inc> :P
[15:52] <nix__> wayne: open a terminal and type the command "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras" (without quotes)
[15:52] <flamoot> i can reach web.sf.net
[15:52] <xakep_inc> Yeah.. but I kinda used up all my resources on trying to solve this one
[15:52] <flamoot> w/ sftp
[15:52] <xakep_inc> So I guess I'll have to wait around
[15:52] <rww> flamoot: because Ubuntu 5.10 is no longer supported and its repositories have been removed from the mirrors.
[15:53] <Jeruvy> !eol | flamoot
[15:53] <mattia> salve ragazzi, posso chiedere anche qui informazioni su kde oppure dovrei spostarmi su un altro canale?
[15:53] <flamoot> hey so what url should i try instead jeruvy
[15:53] <flamoot> i mean, what hostname. is there a release file it will accept somewhere else?
[15:53] <albuntu> !it | mattia
[15:53] <Jeruvy> !eol | flamoot
[15:53] <rww> flamoot: you shouldn't. You should go get a CD of a newer version of Ubuntu, because the one you have is ridiculously out of date.
[15:53] <flamoot> no stop
[15:53] <flamoot> wow that's really hurtful and insulting rww
[15:53] <flamoot> it's ok
[15:53] <flamoot> i understand the concept of planned obsolescence
[15:54] <franki^> heh, how's that insulting?
[15:54]  * flamoot rages
[15:54] <franki^> the new version's are free, and better
[15:54] <franki^> versions*
[15:54] <flamoot> maybe i can burn a cd but then i'd be better off with knoppix
[15:54] <nix__> do you know how to prevent network-manager to disconnect wlan when logging off?
[15:54] <lieuwe> hi there, i need some help with my ubuntu usb-startup disk, first off all, my bios doesn't support booting from usb, i solved that using a bootloader an a cd, which loads the ubuntu boot loader, but because off this i can't give aditional startup parameters, which i need for it to work.
[15:55] <rww> flamoot: It is not feasible for Ubuntu to continue to support all previous versions perpetually. If you need long term support, get an LTS release (supported for 3 years on the desktop, 5 on the server).
[15:55] <dinesh372> oCean: thank you very much now i am able to play songs but just one more query is it necessary that there must be no space in the song name as when i tried with songs having space between words i am not able to play the songs
[15:55] <xakep_inc> anyways, #postfix looks dead
[15:55] <flamoot> hmm
[15:55] <flamoot> ok thanks bye for now
[15:55] <xakep_inc> is there any postfix ace here up for the task? :)
[15:55] <zanophol> can anyone help me with what I believe to be an easy dnsmasq issue?
[15:55] <xakep_inc> I'm kinda clueless on that
[15:55] <Broken|Arrow_> xakep_inc: ?
[15:56] <oCean__> dinesh372: ok. If you have spaces in your filename, you can use the <tab> key to complete your filename.
[15:56] <rochdi> ﻿I want to install Hylafax+Avantfax on Ubuntu HArdy
[15:56] <ackbahr> so long folks!
[15:56] <xakep_inc> Broken|Arrow_ - Basically I'm trying to set up postfix on a machine that has 4 IP addresses associated to it, and 4 domain names. And I can't receive any mail.. And it says "unable to use my own host" all the time
[15:57] <xakep_inc> I've been googling and RTFM'ing for the whole day
[15:57] <xakep_inc> Couldn't find anything that quite solved my problem
[15:57] <lieuwe> anyone hase expierience with a ubuntu-boot-usbstick, the 'buffer error on device sr0' error adn the pendrivelinux.com bootfromcd-cd?
[15:57] <zanophol> dnsmasq is handing out dhcp addresses and correctly resolves properly formed addresses fine (at least 99% of the time). If I ping madwifi.org from a client, I get the proper name resolution..if I ping svn.madwifi.org, it appends my domain name to the end of it...it will also do this for any other garbage name...like ping crap...crap.zanoware.org replies
[15:57] <oCean__> dinesh372: so type "mpg123" and the first two or three characters of the song. Then hit <tab>. It wil autocomplete the filename like "surfing\ usa.mp3"
[15:57] <Broken|Arrow_> xakep_inc: can you pastebin your main.cf somewhere ?
[15:58] <xakep_inc> Broken|Arrow_ - yeah.  1sec
[15:58] <KenSentMe> linuxman410, ok, then there is something wrong with my system, thanks

[16:02] <churl> Blatz: how much?
[16:02] <Jeruvy> Blatz: yes, especially with a slow cpu
[16:02] <nite_johnboy> Hi - Get following error when booting up - Has red asterisk to left of message < No suitable module for running kernel > Anyone know what this means ?
[16:03] <churl> where should i start with a WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0        in my /var/log/syslog?
[16:03] <hmw> what happened to synaptic, i dont find things anymore? did something change in the last 2 months?
[16:03] <Blatz> Well, I have the Q6600 core 2 quad, I just notice that the monitor uses alot of cpu, especially when maximized
[16:03] <tr3nd> How do i make sure my graphic drivers are installed?
[16:03] <ubuntuteen> dasei:fatal : module saa7130_alsa not found
[16:04] <[[thufir]]> what could distort aspect ratio?  only resolution settings, yes?
[16:04] <rww> churl: Are you using Nvidia drivers?
[16:04] <albuntu> tr3nd: check System - Administration - Hardware Drivers and see if are enabled
[16:04] <xakep_inc> [[thufir]] - Resolution and maybe your monitor size settings
[16:04] <ubuntuteen> dasei:fatal error it did not find the module when i typed the first command
[16:05] <churl> rww: probably, i did see people mentioning it in google searches, but i dotn know how to check my drivers
[16:05] <[[thufir]]> xakep_inc: monitor settings on the monitor itself?  physical buttons?
[16:05] <xakep_inc> [[thufir]] - yeah _^_^
[16:06] <[[thufir]]> heh, ok.  aargh, I think there's been some sort of hw failure.
[16:06] <Administrator_> is there a specific channel for ubuntu help?
[16:06] <rww> churl: From looking through launchpad, it seems that message might be a little too generic. You'd probably want to look in the Xorg logs in /var/log/ and see if there's something more specific in them.
[16:06] <hmw> churl rww in rare cases i had issues with the aspect ratio on flat screens combined with bad refresh frequencies
[16:06] <rww> Administrator_: you're in it.

[16:07] <Administrator_> not sure if I can describe the issue clearly, but here it goes:

[16:08] <Administrator_> I am running xp and a while back I messed around with getting dual booting xp and ubuntu 8.04, one thing that I did was install a startup script that asks me to select which os I want to boot

[16:08] <casper_> Hi. I f*cked up my networking because i followed a tutorial which told me to set up bridge networking.
[16:08] <Administrator_> but I have trouble running ubuntu and now I want to delete/remove the start up screen that asks me to select which os I want to boot
[16:08] <asad_rehman> hello*-)

[16:09] <Administrator_> correct

[16:09] <winterk> Hi - I am running Ubuntu 8.10 for the first time, and trying to make it work with dual monitors on an ATI HD 2600. How should I go about that?
[16:09] <xakep_inc> Administrator_: http://expertester.wordpress.com/2008/07/27/how-to-remove-ubuntu-boot-loader-xp-and-vista/
[16:09] <hmw> Administrator_ do you know, if you have gub installed to the MBR or the boot sector of a partition?
[16:09] <Blatz> ﻿churl: wow, that must consume alot of cpu
[16:09] <asad_rehman> i have just installed ubuntu and it is shoing me just only a silver screen
[16:09] <Jeruvy> Administrator_: fixmbr on windows should fix that.
[16:09] <Administrator_> not sure hmw,
[16:09] <rww> Administrator_: See the link xakep_inc posted. If you need help with it, ask in ##windows
[16:10] <Blatz> ﻿churl: It doesn't seem right that windows graphing is so much more efficient.
[16:10] <churl> Blatz: between 1% and 2%
[16:10] <bartocc> hi
[16:10] <Blatz> ﻿churl: what cpu do you have?
[16:10] <bartocc> I just created a new "deply" user
[16:10] <churl> celeron
[16:10] <bartocc> with adduser
[16:10] <Administrator_> I'll try that and get back to you all, thanks!
[16:10] <churl> Blatz: a year or two old
[16:10] <hmw> Administrator_ if your grub is in the MBR, Jeruvy's solution should help - fixmbr writes a new MBR boot program, thus removing the grub boot loader. try that, it should do no harm anyways
[16:10] <bartocc> I created its .ssh dir and copied my id_rsa.pub (from  my laptop) in authorised_keys
[16:11] <ocz> #ayuda_ubuntu
[16:11] <unr3a1> Administrator_: do you have a windows disc?  you could do a repair from a valid windows XP disc as well.  that will rewrite the MBR
[16:11] <bartocc> but ssh deploy@myserver still asks for my password
[16:11] <Jeruvy> hmw: I'd never get rid of grub mind you...
[16:11] <Blatz> ﻿churl:  There must be a problem with mine consuming so much cpu then.  But its mainly when I maximize the window, you might try it and see the effects
[16:11] <Administrator_> yes I have the disc
[16:11] <winterk> Can Ubuntu support dual monitors at all? I've been told its impossible, especially with ATI cards.
[16:11] <bartocc> and even if I type it, I cannot login
[16:11] <Administrator_> no problem there, thanks all

[16:11] <casper_> how can i remove the 'eth0' from the bridge br0???
[16:11] <hmw> Jeruvy i never intended to remove a linux anywhere, too. *g*
[16:11] <Blatz> ﻿churl: Also, are you using 8.04?
[16:11] <Jeruvy> casper_: remove the bridge
[16:11] <DasEi> ﻿ubuntuteen: your native language is english ? or german ?
[16:11] <churl> Blatz: im using xfce if that helps 8.10
[16:12] <casper_> i now can't reach the internet from my pc, and can't reach my pc from the internet

[16:12] <Drknezzz1> Hi
[16:12] <Jeruvy> casper_: ifdown br0
[16:12] <casper_> Jeruvy, (because if i remove it from the interfaces config file, and do a /etc/init.d/networking restart, i still end up with a br0 existing)
[16:12] <churl> Blatz: yeah, not the band :)
[16:12] <casper_> thanks Jeruvy  will try
[16:13] <Blatz> ﻿churl:  hehe cool
[16:13] <hmw> Jeruvy a dirty solution might be to set the delay of the boot menu to zero, though
[16:13] <rockenrola> bartocc: try to use verbose "ssh -v "
[16:13] <ubuntuteen> dasei:well i am english
[16:13] <Drknezzz1> casper_: ifup and ifdown can fail, read the man pages (man ifup)

[16:13] <Jeruvy> Blatz: its a very graphics heavy program, and it isn't terribly efficient so it can use a LOT of resources.  I just don't use it, doesn't tell you that much anyways that syslog doesn't know :)
[16:13] <Blatz> churl,  I'm not sure actually.  Anyway:  This guy here: http://blatzfest.org/images/gear-hat.jpg

[16:14] <churl> yep, my friend got it for me, we used to listen to the band together, and he knows i like beer :)
[16:14] <casper_> ok Jeruvy: ifdown command said "there is already a pid file ...dhclient.br0.pid..." but then i tried dhclient eth0, it gives the right ip address,
[16:14] <Drknezzz1> I love carrying ubuntu on my thumbdrive,  so useful
[16:14] <Jeruvy> casper_: can you delete the pid file?
[16:15] <Blatz> ﻿Jeruvy: Thanks I use "top" on my system with a less hearty cpu.  Good to know that its not a bug of some sort.
[16:15] <casper_> Jeruvy, but i still can't reach anything outside; i will delete the file i find it but i probably can't - the command said also that it deleted it. :S
[16:15] <Jeruvy> Blatz: well I didn't say that...but I know what you meant :

[16:16] <Blatz> ﻿Jeruvy: humm I didn't, but might now.
[16:16] <casper_> Jeruvy, there are only dhclient.eth0 files
[16:16] <Jeruvy> casper_; ok can you try and bring eth0 up?
[16:16] <Blatz> Thx, bye
[16:16] <hmw> alesan there is network tools in the graphical user interface, containing traceroute. i dont know how to "properly" do it in command line, i installed traceroute manually.
[16:16] <xakep_inc> alesan: use traceroute.. just install it: sudo nano apt-get install traceroute
[16:16] <casper_> Jeruvy, as in, ifdown and then ifup?
[16:17] <Jeruvy> casper_; sorry yes thats right
[16:17] <xakep_inc> sry
[16:17] <xakep_inc> lol
[16:17] <alesan> xakep_inc, hmw I see there is "tracepath" installed

[16:18] <casper_> i have no nfs mounts so thats no problem. but still can't reach anything; ping google.com just waits very long
[16:18] <xakep_inc> alesan: if you just do: sudo apt-get install traceroute
[16:18] <xakep_inc> you can then do:

[16:28] <Twinkletoes|W> I've almost completed installation of 8.04 server, and it's failed to write the GRUB loader.  I don't know whether it's because (a) the BIOS setting won't allow boot sector writing, (b) The DAC960 RAID is still rebuilding (it's at 40%) or something else.  If I just continue past this stage, can I still run grub without going through the entire installation again?
[16:28] <Jack_Sparrow> tr3nd, turn off desktop effects and try again.. and please dont type help me.. it would help you
[16:28] <justafish> hey guys, I just installed jabber on my ubuntu server (8.04). Does anyone know how I disable registration? I commented out the mod_register line but it still seems to allow them
[16:28] <kop> Jack_Sparrow, could be :-) I'm poking around in the cmd line looking for a flag now

[16:30] <alesan> hey how do I disable the network manager? want to temporarily setup my ip with ifconfig
[16:30] <sheena1> Hi all. I have a wireless card in my laptop (toshiba satellite u300) and it works well, but I can't figure out how to change the settings. I want to tell it to always try "default" or "university" first, rather than going through them all one by one. They're in alphabetical order, so the university server is always the last one tried, which takes time unless I manually override that... Is there a way to tell it to always look for Default, then look for Univers
[16:30] <Twinkletoes|W> hmw: Thanks ;)
[16:30] <alesan> but after a few minutes the systems keeps resetting eth0 to nothing
[16:30] <hmw> alesan you can just temporarily ifconfig your if
[16:30] <silvestre> esmtp or msmtp -- they seem to do pretty much the same. Can anybody recommend one over the other?
[16:30] <asad_rehman> albuntu it is showing some information before this Kinit: no Resume image doing normal boot.... Ubuntu 8.10 asad-desktop tty1
[16:31] <alesan> hmw, that's the point, network manager messes with my manual config
[16:31] <alesan> like just now
[16:31] <albuntu> asad_rehman: thats normal. there is nothing to worry about that. asad_rehman try doing this : CTRL + ALT + F8
[16:31] <hmw> asad_rehman sounds like it means "you tried to restard from hibernation mode, but i cant do that. i boot normally instead"
[16:31] <jacko2009> i installed ubuntu and ubuntu server and none of it works...can anyone PM me in order to explain?
[16:31] <alesan> damn, I have to re-ifconfig every 30 seconds
[16:31] <casper_> Jeruvy, thanks but i'm off
[16:31] <myk_robinson> quick question. How do you burn a playlist from Rhythmbox? I dont see this option

[16:31] <asad_rehman> albuntu now command prompt is shoing up
[16:31] <tr3nd> it doesn't to turn off the desktop effect, it's still flickering/lagging. How do I make sure the drivers are working?

[16:32] <casper_> can't stand it when i fucked something up myself and can't see how to turn back. :P
[16:32] <hmw> albuntu i just translated what i think, the message means
[16:32] <alesan> rockenrola, why should I neable it, then dhcp will be started
[16:32] <Jack_Sparrow> !ohmy > casper_
[16:32] <albuntu> asad_rehman: try this. enter your user and your password in the terminal in there and type : sudo startx
[16:32] <hmw> albuntu this message should be safe to be ignored. it should be repaired, though.
[16:33] <rockenrola> alesan: aren't you trying to disable the networkmanager?
[16:33] <casper_> sorry Jack_Sparrow ;) taking it all too seriously
[16:33] <casper_> bye

[16:34] <asad_rehman> brb
[16:34] <hekaldama> they would probably be able to help, np :)

[16:35] <MGdesigner> #tossug
[16:35] <hekaldama> BramP: what kind of router?
[16:35] <Jack_Sparrow> jacko2009, HOw far do you get when you boot the livecd
[16:35] <hekaldama> can you login to it?
[16:36] <albuntu> BramP: your router ip must be something like 192.168.1.0 or .192.168.0.0 most of the times
[16:36] <DarkKnight> hey can anyone tell me a good editor for C and C++ where i can compile and execute comfortably
[16:36] <IcyPolecat> BramP: route will give you the ip (or name if so available) route -n will give you the IP
[16:36] <hmw> BramP your router will probably have the IP address of the gateway, used in your pc (on the LAN side of the router) - the external (public) ip will not show up in your pc
[16:36] <jp_sf> Abed: you have to sudo
[16:36] <jp_sf> BramP: route -nee
[16:36] <Abed> jp_sf i will try it now
[16:36] <jp_sf> Abed: sudo tcp -i eth0 (example)
[16:37] <jp_sf> Abed: sudo tcpdump -i eth0 (example)
[16:37] <BramP> Thanks everybody, I'll try it all out and see if I can get what I need, if not I'll ask help again
[16:37] <jacko2009> well i tried  both downloadable versions...first it gets stuck on some bluetooth driver...loading foreva
[16:37] <Abed> jp_sf it works now thnx but with warning no IPv4 address assigened
[16:38] <Jeruvy> Abed: is that a problem?
[16:38] <jacko2009> and server gets stuck after loading and introducing the user and password
[16:38] <jp_sf> Abed: you have to know if it is eth0 or eth1 is it on wireless ...
[16:38] <veritos> I boot the 32-bit LiveCD on my 64-bit laptop, and everything works. I boot the 64-bit LiveCD and the touchpad and keyboard don't work, although an external USB keyboard/mouse set will work.

[16:38] <StR|Sangreal> hi all... pls i use centrino2 architecture and kubuntu intrepid... my preinstalled flashplugin-nonfree didnt work, and afaik there is no official flash support for architectures similar to amd64. which package from which repository should i install?
[16:39] <Jack_Sparrow> jacko2009, What kind of bluetooth devices are you using
[16:39] <jacko2009> it's just like expecting a dos command...but nothing works
[16:39] <albuntu> veritos: try googling for ubuntu 64bit and the name of your laptop. maybe something comes out
[16:39] <whoDat> in 8.10, why dont the volume keys on my keyboard register on XEV?? they did in 8.04......
[16:39] <carbon-neutral-c> what 64bit ubuntu issue is that?
[16:39] <jacko2009> i have a dell laptop...it's intel i believe
[16:39] <Abed> jp_sf but i can only catch things from my computer not the others in the network
[16:39] <whoDat> the volume keys still work, they just dont report key codes
[16:39] <sheena1> Hi all. I have wireless in a laptop (toshiba satellite u300) and it works. How do I change the default network? It just goes in alphabetical order, and takes time unless I manually override by clicking the right network. Is there a way to tell it to always look for Default, then look for University, then look for others if it doesn't find those two?
[16:39] <nbah> how do you like fluxbox?
[16:39] <Jack_Sparrow> jacko2009, Server does not have a gui.  have you given the login and password a?  and you are at the linuz equiv of a dos prompt.. Please people dont flame me for that comparison
[16:40] <albuntu> StR|Sangreal: have you tried the ubuntu-restricted-extras ?
[16:40] <BramP> another question how can I login to my router?
[16:40] <albuntu> BramP: type the ip of your router in firefox
[16:40] <jacko2009> yes i introduced both user and passw i myself introduced
[16:40] <xakep_inc> Anyways, can anyone help me with that problem I had (configuring postfix on a machine with 4 ip's and 4 domains, currently I can only send mail and not receive, and it always complains about "unable to use my own host" .. here's a pastebin of my main.rc:  http://pastebin.com/m5e18bff   and here's my error logs:      http://pastebin.com/m2260b0e
[16:40] <StR|Sangreal> albuntu> no i didnt i have no clue which package do i need
[16:41] <BramP> albuntu: it says server not found when I try that (I got the IP from the command)
[16:41] <Jack_Sparrow> jacko2009, type this.. sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop it will download a lot of stuff
[16:41] <hmw> BramP router admin is often available via http://192.168.0.1 (if that is the IP of your router) in your browser
[16:41] <albuntu> StR|Sangreal: try in terminal : sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[16:41] <jp_sf> Abed: depends how you are connected, on a wireless you might see only the traffic for your computer depends of the configuration of your lan
[16:41] <StR|Sangreal> aha, ill try
[16:42] <jacko2009> so i should google another version?sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop one?
[16:42] <Abed> aha jp_sf u have an idea how to fix this or u know a tut?
[16:42] <hmw> BramP you will probably find the answer, how to configure your router, by googeling the model name of the router
[16:42] <albuntu> BramP: do : ifconfig in terminal and find your connection there. find the part : inet addr in your connection. it should be your router ip
[16:42] <jacko2009> or just introduce that as a command?
[16:43] <Seveas> albuntu, no that will be his own ip. The route command will show the routers ip :)
[16:43] <albuntu> Seveas: yes. sorry BramP just change the last value of that ip in 0
[16:43] <jp_sf> albuntu: use route -nee
[16:44] <Seveas> albuntu, no that will be the network address ;)
[16:44] <winterk> Is it possible to split two virtual desktops on my dual monitor display with my ATI HD 2600 card? Everything I tried only ends up with stretching the desktop across two monitors instead.
[16:44] <jacko2009> jk_sp...command and google download?
[16:44] <albuntu> Seveas: lol. 1 then not 0. my fault again
[16:44] <sp00n> #list
[16:44] <StR|Sangreal> another problem... it offers me to install a thirdparty driver for my ati... any approach to accept it crashes Xserver
[16:44] <jacko2009> or...
[16:45] <Jack_Sparrow> jacko2009, type this..                                    sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[16:45] <Seveas> winterk, yes, with some trickery, have 2 xorg.confs that each look at a different card.
[16:45] <jacko2009> google command
[16:45] <BramP> albuntu: it's already 0
[16:45] <StR|Sangreal> and, the graphic performance is far from fine, i often see some stripes over my display
[16:45] <winterk> Seveas: Oho? Thats interesting. Got any resource that can help me with this? I've been googling for a long time now, no string to follow
[16:45] <jacko2009> k
[16:45] <albuntu> BramP: sorry. try 1
[16:45] <jacko2009> tnx
[16:45] <judas> i have a little problem with running spdif. it seems that it only outputs in stereo. does anyone know how to change the output setting?
[16:45] <Seveas> winterk, hmm, not really,
[16:46] <florin_> da
[16:46] <florin_> sall
[16:46] <Seveas> winterk, maybe google for multiseat xorg
[16:46] <Jack_Sparrow> jacko2009 You need to type complete questions or responses on one line, use the tab key to complete my nickname after typing a few letters so that your response is highlighted to my attention
[16:46] <BramP> albuntu: the same error, no connection
[16:47] <albuntu> BramP: try what jp_sf suggested. try : route and copy the one that says default. thats my router ip if i do that command
[16:48] <Jack_Sparrow> !ro > florin_
[16:48] <florin_> da
[16:48] <jacko2009> Jack_Sparrow: sorry it's the first time...the thing is i didn't understand if i should type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop as a command in the linux dos like command prompt or just google another version
[16:49] <BramP> albuntu: I got the ip from that command. BTW: it's a speedtouch router
[16:49] <clarks> anyone know how to get money from internet?alertpay?
[16:49] <Jack_Sparrow> jacko2009, At the DOS prompt  heaven help me for ever saying that
[16:49] <Jack_Sparrow> clarks, That sounds rather offtopic
[16:49]  * loki28 slaps clarks with a rainbow trout
[16:49] <StR|Sangreal> is there a simple way how to install OOo3 on kubuntu intrepid?
[16:50] <Seveas> clarks, this is an ubuntu support channel, not a money support channel :)
[16:50] <clarks> :p
[16:50] <mini-man> I'm going to attempt to transfer my wubi install to a dedicated partition with LVPM, seeing as wubi is insanely sluggish, but I have almost a full hard drive, only 40 GiB left, and I'm assuming it's fragmented (haven't checked) - is this safe?
[16:50] <jp_sf> BramP: you have the model number ?
[16:50] <jacko2009> Jack_Sparrow: ok thank's are u from ro as florin too?sorry for the dos blasphemy :D:P
[16:50] <mini-man> i.e., will partitioning it break anything? :p
[16:51] <Jack_Sparrow> jacko2009, No USA here.  Just trying to point him/her in the right direction
[16:51] <BramP> jp_sf no, it doesn't show it in that command
[16:51] <tsunami> Will these drivers work with 8.10:  http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=420&OSID=45&CatID=3220&SubCatID=158?
[16:51] <Jack_Sparrow> mini-man, Working at the partition level will always have risks
[16:51] <BadElvis> hi! i removed my user from all groups, accidentally. meanwhile i managed to get root access again by adding my user to /etc/sudoers. what are the default groups and how can i add my user to them?
[16:52] <Seveas> BadElvis, groups=4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),25(floppy),29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),107(fuse),109(lpadmin),115(admin)
[16:52] <oCean_> BramP: can't you browse to the router?
[16:52] <Seveas> to add a user to a group: sudo adduser username groupname
[16:52] <Jack_Sparrow> mini-man, Working at the partition level will always have risks.. the more fragmented your ntfs, the less free space you have before or after the resize will affect the outcome
[16:52] <loki28> i ssh into a ubuntu server with term type wyse50, TERM is set to wyse50 on ubuntu but if i then telnet to a sco box my term type isn't passed...any ideas?
[16:52] <ldlework> Ahhh, the blinking capslock of death!
[16:52] <jp_sf> BramP: no it might be hard to guess the version model from a remote computer nevertheless some members of my family have a speedtouch and they connect to http://192.168.1.254
[16:52] <BramP> oCean_: no firefox gives the server not found error when I try to
[16:52] <BadElvis> Seveas: how can i add my user to these groups?
[16:52] <Seveas> BadElvis, to add a user to a group: sudo adduser username groupname
[16:53] <mini-man> Jack_Sparrow: well I guess I'll have to purchase another disk for backup or just to put ubuntu on it... because I currently have no means of backing up anything, and my windows install is kaput
[16:53] <Seveas> loki28, please find a sco channel.
[16:53] <sproaty> What do you do when sudo kill [PID] won't actually err..kill the process?
[16:53] <sproaty> For some reason the X close button doesn't work.
[16:53] <loki28> seveas, it's ubuntu that's not passing the term type
[16:53] <oCean_> BramP: that's when you enter the found ip in the browser?
[16:53] <Jeruvy> mini-man: good plan, backup before you start modifying partitions.
[16:53] <BadElvis> Seveas: ok thank you!
[16:54] <Jack_Sparrow> mini-man, if your windows install is fried.. then use a livecd to recover your stuff .. good luck
[16:54] <Seveas> loki28, it's sco not accepting the variable :)
[16:54] <Seveas> sproaty, sudo kill -9 pid
[16:54] <Jeruvy> Seveas: do you know why fuse is part of the default permissions?
[16:54] <jacko20091> Jack_Sparrow: tnx 4 the tips m8ey...cya
[16:54] <BramP> jp_sf: that's it! I'm in many thanks for your help. Quite strange I didn't have to give an username/password
[16:54] <Jack_Sparrow> cya
[16:54] <Seveas> Jeruvy, because fuse is used by default (making gvfs available in the regular filesystem)
[16:54] <sproaty> Seveas: cheers :)
[16:55] <_Vi_> BramP: I think by default most routers dont have a pass , if they do they're usually something simple like 1234
[16:55] <sproaty> j/w, what exactly does the -9 flag do with kill?
[16:56] <Jeruvy> Seveas: I did not know, thanks.
[16:56] <Cpudan80> sproaty: kills it dead right there
[16:56] <Jack_Sparrow> BramP, try also admin   for router password
[16:56] <jp_sf> loki28: export TERM=vt100 and then telnet ?
[16:56] <ugliefrog> is there a way i can chk my ip in the terminal
[16:56] <Cpudan80> sproaty: kinda like pulling the plug from your computer while it's on
[16:56] <Seveas> sproaty, kill sends a SIGINT. An app can ignore/handle that. Jill -9 sends SIGKILL. Applications are terminated immediately
[16:56] <Cpudan80> ugliefrog: ifconfig
[16:56] <Cpudan80> ugliefrog: iwconfig if wireless
[16:56] <_Vi_> hehe 'Jill' Seveas ?
[16:57] <sproaty> Ah, excellent, I will have to keep that in mind
[16:57] <Seveas> _Vi_, ?
[16:57] <ugliefrog> ty you guys rock....ive learned much because of this channel
[16:57] <_Vi_> re-read your last sentence
[16:57] <Seveas> ah, typo :)
[16:57] <_Vi_> ;)
[16:57] <sproaty> So I guess doing kill -9 just kills..all processes?
[16:57] <Seveas> stupid small EEE keyboard
[16:57] <sproaty> (with no PID)
[16:57] <Seveas> sproaty,
[16:57] <Seveas> no
[16:57] <BramP> _vi_,Jack_Sparrow: no, I'm in, I only found it strange I didn't have to enter a pass
[16:57] <Seveas> kill -9 -1 does that :)
[16:57] <_Vi_> BramP: you can make one
[16:57] <sproaty> Badass :)
[16:57] <BramP> _vi_: in configuration?
[16:58] <Cpudan80> sproaty: the syntax is kill -9 processIDHere
[16:58] <judas> my SPDIF only outputs in stereo - is there a conf file somewhere i have to change in order to enable surround/dts? any help or point in direction will be very much appreciated. thanks a million guys :)
[16:58] <zamba> i have a lot of desktop computers running ubuntu with oversized hard drives.. is it possible to use these in some sort of distributed storage system?
[16:58] <Seveas> sproaty, if you run that as root, your machine won't be too happy
[16:58] <Cpudan80> sproaty: -1 would be ... all ...
[16:58] <_Vi_> BramP: just make sure you dont loose the pass you make! else you'll have no choice but to reset the router! yes in the config
[16:58] <BramP> _vi_: ok thanks
[16:58] <_Vi_> yep
[16:59] <sproaty> Seveas Cpudan80 - thanks, I closed the app now
[16:59] <sproaty> gotta shoot off anyway, I was going to shutdown my machine anyway haha...just may as well what to do for next time :)
[17:02] <mini-man> is resizing a fragmented windows partition a good idea? e.g., will it work, even if I have smaller amounts of space?
[17:03] <jp_sf> zamba: what have you tried so far ?
[17:03] <mini-man> I'm afraid fragmenting won't work as it stops at the wubi disk..
[17:03] <Cpudan80> mini-man: no - you must defrag it
[17:03] <vdette> Hi all, Q:If I want to run the urxvtd daemon just for one user, where should I start that? i.e. in which file should I put it, so that it doesn't get started after each instance of bash that gets started?
[17:03] <temppy> mini-man: I think it may just  take a _really_ long time
[17:03] <Cpudan80> mini-man: It should just skip over it
[17:03] <mini-man> Cpudan80: but it fails to move the wubi disk
[17:03] <mini-man> :<
[17:03] <mini-man> ok, thanks
[17:03] <Cpudan80> mini-man: you should have defragged before installing wubi :-(
[17:03] <mini-man> i know :(
[17:04] <mini-man> maybe i'll just save myself the trouble and buy another disk
[17:04] <zamba> jp_sf: nothing.. i'm just checking what's "out there"
[17:04] <temppy> mini-man: have you tried a different program, maybe defraggler?
[17:05] <mini-man> temppy: nope. Is it freeware?
[17:05] <jp_sf> zamba: have a look into GFS and GlusterFS
[17:05] <temppy> ya
[17:05] <zamba> jp_sf: considering the fact that this is desktop computers probably complicates stuff a bit, since they are turned off quite often
[17:05] <mini-man> also; I wouldn't even bother with messing with this if wubi wasn't so butt slow lol...
[17:05] <mini-man> after about a day of uptime, I have to reboot because everything takes minutes to restore from disk sleeps
[17:06] <Deany> whats the easiest way to reformat my home partition, its currently ext3 but its painful when using disk intensive stuff, so gonna go JFS route.  need my home backin up tho
[17:06] <asad_rehman> hello
[17:06] <mini-man> not to mention, a hard reboot because I don't have the patience to wait 10 minutes for the logoff screen to appear, then another 10 minutes for it to kill everything (and subsequently fail)
[17:07] <asad_rehman> albuntu ?
[17:07] <albuntu> asad_rehman: yes ?
[17:07] <asad_rehman> can u tell me what i should do
[17:07] <albuntu> asad_rehman: what did you do before ? did you do that command i told you in terminal ?
[17:07] <asad_rehman> bcoz i m now getting desprate to use linux:-(
[17:07] <vdette> No takers?
[17:08] <asad_rehman> i didn't worked
[17:09] <albuntu> asad_rehman: i am helping you as much as i can but you have to help me too. tell me what happened when you did that command. it didnt worked is not an answer. what do you mean by it didnt worked ?
[17:09] <asad_rehman> Could not start the x server due to some internal error
[17:09] <asad_rehman> this is what comes up whe i use startx
[17:10] <albuntu> asad_rehman: try doing in terminal this : sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[17:10] <orduek> can anyone help me with sound problem?
[17:10] <albuntu> asad_rehman: and restart your computer
[17:11] <albuntu> !ask | orduek
[17:12] <orduek> I have a mythbuntu 8.10 installation, after adding Nvidia 9400gt graphic card my sound is out. I can't find a way to briing the sound back, only option is to load the computer from the integrated graphic card and not the nvidia one.
[17:12] <Maestro123> друзья ссылочку не дадите на репозитарий где можно достать пиджин 254
[17:13] <albuntu> !ru | Maestro123
[17:13] <theczar> I'm using LAMPP, and I want to enable FTP for my system users.  How to I go about doing that?  Anyone know?
[17:13] <asad_rehman> albuntu now it is asking for using kernel framebuffer device interface
[17:13] <Maestro123> sorry =)
[17:13] <asad_rehman> yes or no?
[17:13] <albuntu> orduek: i am not sure but have you tried checking system - administration - hardware drivers to see if your graphic drivers are installed ?
[17:15] <hakumaligachibal> hi
[17:15] <asad_rehman> albuntu now it is asking for using kernel framebuffer device interface
[17:15] <fasta> What is a good asciiart viewer?
[17:15] <orduek> albuntu: graphic driver is installed properly. I'm afraid it runs over the integrated sound card.
[17:15] <albuntu> asad_rehman: use the default option.
[17:15] <epicgoo> :D
[17:16] <hakumaligachibal> i new to linux. i went to #linux but they funning me. i went to #gentoo but they tell me to tell you. so me asking in #ubuntu
[17:16] <hakumaligachibal> i am not seeing httpd.conf
[17:16] <albuntu> orduek: than sorry i cant help you anymore. maybe some other one here may help
[17:16] <Pici> hakumaligachibal: Are you running Ubuntu?
[17:16] <theczar> ah... welcome to my problem hakumaligachibal
[17:16] <hakumaligachibal> i change apache but no httpd.conf :-(
[17:16] <hakumaligachibal> Pici: yes ubuntu and apt-get
[17:16] <hakumaligachibal> i put ubuntu into my computer by putting cd into my computer
[17:16] <hmw> hakumaligachibal try "locate httpd.conf"
[17:16] <hakumaligachibal> and i put apache into ubuntu using apt-get
[17:16] <theczar> do you have the standard Apache installation or a LAMPP installation?
[17:16] <LjL> hakumaligachibal: i wonder what sort of reasoning makes you ask in #gentoo if you're using Ubuntu
[17:16] <hakumaligachibal> ok
[17:17] <Jack_Sparrow> !lamp
[17:17] <hmw> hakumaligachibal you might have to update the locate database: "updatedb" before
[17:17] <Deany> hakumaligachibal,   http.conf for other distros is apache.conf for ubuntu apache2
[17:17] <Deany> http.conf is for loading modules
[17:17] <hakumaligachibal> i don't know before now #ubuntu exists so I ask #gentoo
[17:17] <z0mbix> hakumaligachibal: look for /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[17:17] <LjL> hakumaligachibal: i don't have an httpd.conf either. are you sure you aren't looking for /etc/apache2/apache2.conf ?
[17:17] <hmw> Deany hakumaligachibal - oh.
[17:17] <Jack_Sparrow> hakumaligachibal, what exactly does lsb_release -a in a terminal tell you
[17:18] <hakumaligachibal> hmm. many many commands to help
[17:18] <orduek> anyone here knows about sound issues?
[17:18] <Pici> hakumaligachibal: Ubuntu uses /etc/apache2/apache2.conf not httpd.conf. They can accept the same syntax.
[17:18] <hakumaligachibal> apache2.conf change wil change apache ?
[17:18] <Pici> hakumaligachibal: yes
[17:18] <hakumaligachibal> i want change DocumentRoot
[17:18] <Pici> hakumaligachibal: You can do that there
[17:18] <hakumaligachibal> hurray. thanks you. :-)
[17:18] <orduek> anyone here knows about sound issues?
[17:18] <epicgoo> lol gentoo... their latest release is months old yet has lots of bugs
[17:18] <Deany> hakumaligachibal, try /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default then
[17:19] <hmw> orduek - yes. i have some here, too. we might exchange them. *g*

[17:24] <hakumaligachibal> Pici: no.  i try  now.
[17:25] <hmw> orduek all my different IRC clients make a sound, when my nickname is mentioned
[17:25] <frandieguez> put it on /etc/skel is the only way?
[17:25] <hmw> orduek so i can focus on something else, until the program tells me, that someone is talking to me
[17:26] <IkimashoZ> need some help.  I'm trying to install ubuntu onto a machine here at work.  It's an intel pentium 4, unknown graphics hardware.  The GNOME GUI will not load for either the live CD or if I install.  I get the login screen (usplash?), but after that there's just a the off-tan monochrome background and the mouse.  Can't tell if I'm getting sound or not.  No speakers.  Should I try Kubuntu??
[17:27] <Riotta> IkimashoZ: use alternate-cd image
[17:27] <IkimashoZ> ok
[17:27] <IkimashoZ> should I change any of the install settings?
[17:27] <IkimashoZ> the install went fine
[17:27] <_Vi_> IkimashoZ: i think there's a safe graphics  mode on all the CD's
[17:27] <Riotta> this machine can be too low for gfx installer
 or setup with safe grafik driver
[17:27] <IkimashoZ> kk
[17:27] <IkimashoZ> thanks!
[17:27] <StR|Sangreal> please

[17:29] <aatish_> ezerhoden: i got the same prob with all player
[17:29] <Jack_Sparrow> aatish_, What about with compiz effects turned off
[17:29] <ezerhoden> aatish_: you have to change the video output for all of  the players
[17:30] <StR|Sangreal> both packages do not exist
[17:30] <Jack_Sparrow> !flash
[17:30] <aatish_> i only get flickering just after i install nvidia drivers

[17:31] <Koordin> hi i have a problem when i type "xrandr --size 640x480" : my desktop does not scale
[17:31] <albuntu> aatish_: how did you install the drivers ?
[17:31] <StR|Sangreal> the article didnt help me cuz its for 32bit or x86 architecture
[17:31] <|neon|> xrandr is broke under intrepid
[17:31] <CEG> #ubunbtu em portugues
[17:31] <Riotta> they exist you must enable all the other repositories in synaptic or apt StR|Sangreal
[17:31] <|neon|> i am finding that is very hard to setup dual monitors under intrepid, i'm using nvidia-settings but the only i canget is twin view , can not get "separate x screens" to work
[17:31] <Jack_Sparrow> !pt
[17:32] <Deany> would of thought video and compiz would be fixed by now...
[17:32] <tr3nd> My Ubuntu is flickering/lagging, espescially when I watch movies, Im running Ubuntu 8.10 (x64). How do I make sure the drivers are working? Is there a benchmark tool or something for ubuntu?
[17:32] <CEG> #ubuntu-br
[17:32] <Jack_Sparrow> CEG, /join #Ubuntu-pt
[17:32] <|neon|> i been trying to configure dual monitors forever and no luck
[17:32] <aatish_> Jack_Sparrow: yes. but even the normal visual effects this can happen???
[17:32] <CEG> join #ubuntu-pt
[17:32] <Jack_Sparrow> aatish_, I cant continue if you refuse to try my suggestion
[17:32] <StR|Sangreal> Riota, which repositories please?
[17:32] <aatish_> i install by hardware drivers and i have also tried installing by my own
[17:33] <StR|Sangreal> there exists a plugin called flashplugin-nonfree but its a malfunction on centrino2
[17:33] <Jack_Sparrow> aatish_, What about with compiz effects turned off.. ALL the way off as in NONE
[17:33] <onelee> hello
[17:33] <aatish_> Jack_Sparrow: ok i will try
[17:33] <Koordin> hi i have a problem when i type "xrandr --size 640x480" : my desktop does not scale
[17:34] <Riotta> StR|Sangreal: restricted and maybe universe you may look also on the partner one if you are seeking other non-free material
[17:34] <aatish_> Jack_Sparrow: but is there a solution to have some effects with the video playing without flickering??
[17:34] <umz> does any 1 knows about gosa support for slapd 2.4.11 ?????
[17:34] <werner_> If anyone has an idea about the gbib problem please email me at werner_heigl@yahoo.com. I have to leave now. Thanks.
[17:35] <Jack_Sparrow> aatish_, Please address your question to the channel since you wont answer mine
[17:35] <StR|Sangreal> pls could you give me a direct order what to do?
[17:35] <Promille> why is it so late to update the reps?
[17:36] <Promille> nmap hasnt been updated since 6.42, its now 4.76
[17:36] <Promille> 4.42
[17:36] <aatish_> Jack_Sparrow: ok am going to set effects to NONE and will let u know. thanks for the time being
[17:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Promille, Out of Date? !latest: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit.
[17:36] <StR|Sangreal> except that, how can i get a thirdparty driver for my ati?
[17:36] <IkimashoZ> Thank you Vi, Riotta and aatish!  Safe gfx mode got it working.  It's strange... the installer GUI worked just fine.  But loading the whole operating system + gui crashed for some reason.  Thanks again!
[17:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Promille, Perhaps version 6 didnt play nice with ubuntu
[17:37] <Jack_Sparrow> !ati
[17:37] <Promille> Jack_Sparrow, but this is someway i can update it manually then without reinstalling?
[17:38] <Riotta> IkimashoZ: you can still try alternate-cd iso image
[17:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Promille, what version of ubuntu
[17:38] <Promille> Jack_Sparrow what version of ubuntu im running?
[17:38] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[17:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Promille, from a terminal type   lsb_release -a and tell us exactly what it shows
[17:39] <Promille> Jack_Sparrow: 8.10, and the latest
[17:39] <Promille> 8.10 intrepid Jack_Sparrow
[17:40] <tr3nd> My Ubuntu is flickering/lagging, espescially when I watch movies, Im running Ubuntu 8.10 (x64). How do I make sure the drivers are working? Is there a benchmark tool or something for ubuntu?
[17:40] <StR|Sangreal> and what about my flash for AMD64 Intrepid kubuntu?
[17:40] <IkimashoZ> Riotta: is the ubuntu installed from the alternate cd fundamentally different from that of the live cd?  I thought they were the same
[17:40] <Promille> Jack_Sparrow but what i meant is, how can i manually update it then without reinstalling, if it isnt updated in the reps?
[17:40] <Jack_Sparrow> tr3nd,         What about with compiz effects turned off.. ALL the way off as in NONE
[17:41] <Jack_Sparrow> !info nmap
[17:41] <tr3nd> Jack_Sparrow: doesnt work
[17:41] <tr3nd> still flickering
[17:42] <Promille> http://nmap.org/dist/?C=M&O=D Jack_Sparrow 4.76 is the latest:)
[17:42] <umz> does any 1 knows about gosa support for slapd 2.4.11 ?????
[17:43] <Jack_Sparrow> Promille, Yes, I am aware as I just brought up info nmap to show you..
[17:44] <Riotta> IkimashoZ: nope only installation process differs cause it's not loading live-cd it install in text mode system etc.
[17:44] <|neon|> is there a way to setup dual monitors as "separate x screens" not twinview for a nvidia card, using nvidia settings does not work properly trying randr does not work either any suggestions
[17:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Promille, Latest stable Nmap tarball: nmap-4.76.tar.bz2 (or gzip compressed)            per the nmap site     where are you seeing 6. soething
[17:48] <fluffybacon> anyone got any idea what  would cause this?
[17:48] <fluffybacon> BAD-TRAFFIC tcp port 0 traffic [**][Classification: Misc activity] [Priority: 3] 192.168.82.2:46660 -> 86.143.123.159:0
[17:48] <fluffybacon> netstat and fuser say they're nothing using that port
[17:48] <Lokiase> hello all, can someone help me  whats the best way to make kubuntu of ubuntu?
[17:49] <fluffybacon> *there's*
[17:50] <dayo_> Lokiase: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[17:50] <guantanamo> how do you convert wmv to 3gp? prefferably some gui-program
[17:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Lokiase, after dayo_  command se the link for pure kubuntu
[17:50] <aatish_> guantanamo: use winFF
[17:50] <IkimashoZ> Riotta: well, then that won't solve the problem.  the installer gui loads just fine.  it's the operating system+gui that won't load correctly, and that's post-install
[17:50] <Jack_Sparrow> !purekde
[17:51] <Riotta> how much rom that machine got IkimashoZ ?
[17:51] <Riotta> ram*
[17:51] <|neon|> is there a way to setup dual monitors as "separate x screens" not twinview for a nvidia card, using nvidia settings does not work properly trying randr does not work either any suggestions
[17:51] <Lokiase> Jack_Sparrow: what are the advantages off installing pureKDE?
[17:51] <guantanamo> aatish_:thanks
[17:51] <IkimashoZ> Riotta: 20GB
[17:51] <aatish_> guantanamo: ur welcome
[17:51] <IkimashoZ> you meant RAM, right?
[17:51] <Riotta> yep
[17:51] <Riotta> I meant ram
[17:51] <Riotta> :)
[17:52] <IkimashoZ> Riotta: then I'm not sure
[17:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Lokiase, You are not installing purekde, these instructions remove what is left of ubuntu-desktop gnome after you install kubuntu-desktop
[17:52] <IkimashoZ> just a sec
[17:52] <IkimashoZ> let me check
[17:52] <Lokiase> Jack_Sparrow: thats what I ment, but whats the advantage?
[17:52] <[TK]D-Fender> Hello all, looking for a bit of audio advise.  I've got a 1st Gen SB Audigy and I'm running JACK + QSYNTH nad get xruns which of course is a piss-off for live playing.  I've been looking at a budget card with good latency & support.  Any suggestions on specific models?
[17:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Lokiase, Saving drive space for one.
[17:52] <migaber> migaber
[17:53] <Jack_Sparrow> Lokiase, when you have both installed there are some subtle differences in the appearance
[17:53] <Riotta> you can always try the different flavours of ubuntu like xubuntu which is very easy and light (in gui terms) IkimashoZ
[17:53] <Lokiase> Jack_Sparrow: drive space isn't an issue, what differences?
[17:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Lokiase, JUst try it and you will see what I maen by subtle appearance differences
[17:54] <dayo_> Lokiase: there are certain apps which are particular to gnome and kde respectively
[17:54] <Lokiase> Jack_Sparrow: I installed it yesterday, but had probs with my language :)
[17:54] <superbuntu> Hi there, how can I install the sound drivers in ubuntu ulitmate edition 2.0?
[17:54] <IkimashoZ> Riotta: ....
[17:54] <dayo_> Lokiase: if u have both desktop environments installed side by side, u got access to both their apps
[17:54] <IkimashoZ> Riotta:  Looks like only 256MB
[17:54] <IkimashoZ> >_<
[17:55] <Jack_Sparrow> superbuntu, We dont support the ultimate edition,
[17:55] <Jack_Sparrow> !mint
[17:55] <dayo_> Lokiase: personally, i have a pure xubuntu install
[17:55] <superbuntu> Oh, where can I find the support for the ulitmate edition?
[17:55] <ramiro> hi. does anyone here know how to export files from an ubuntu box to a windows box (through network)?
[17:55] <Riotta> IkimashoZ: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements
[17:55] <IkimashoZ> yes, yes, I know
[17:55] <Lokiase> dayo_: I like kubuntu, but yesterday I installed the kubuntu-desktop and had issues with my language...
[17:55] <IkimashoZ> I'm going to go find some 512MB sticks
[17:55] <Riotta> in this case I would recommend Xubuntu
[17:56] <Jack_Sparrow> superbuntu, No idea.. it seems to be lacking in support but there are channels around that can help. You will need to look for them
[17:56] <dayo_> Lokiase: what kind of issues? maybe it just needs some configuring?
[17:57] <Jack_Sparrow> ramiro, samba.
[17:57] <Jack_Sparrow> !samba
[17:57] <Lokiase> dayo_: My KDE-enviroment was not in dutch, my Gnome was... and for no reason KDE always logged me out...
[17:57] <dayo_> Lokiase: i got to go, for a while. i'll see u guys later
[17:57] <ramiro> Jack_Sparrow, will try, thanks.
[17:57] <Lokiase> Jack_Sparrow: so the help is all up to you now :p
[17:58] <TheFunkbomb> I cannot get Audacity to play any sound
[17:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Lokiase, and I am swamped after being off yesterday
[17:59] <Lokiase> Jack_Sparrow: are you sure that sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop will install the good language packages also?
[17:59] <knut> where does it come from that i cant get reflections for my Cairo-Dock?
[17:59] <johnmane> Can someone help me i am trying to fix my iPod using linux
[17:59] <ramiro> Jack_Sparrow, hmm, what about the other way around? exporting from ubuntu and mounting as a windows drive?
[17:59] <TheFunkbomb> I gotta run
[18:00] <ezerhoden> johnmane: what is wrong. i have heard version 3 nanos get fubared unless you do some hack to the firmware
[18:00] <johnmane> ezerhoden: the ipod is not being recognized by itunes
[18:00] <johnmane> ezerhoden: it is recognized only as a usb drive
[18:01] <jomel> n
[18:01] <ezerhoden> i don
[18:01] <Jack_Sparrow> ramiro, sure you can export it to a usb stick and move the stick to another box
[18:02] <ezerhoden> i don't have an ipod myself. but i thought itunes can do some sort of reset to the device
[18:02] <Lokiase> Jack_Sparrow: are you sure that sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop will install the good language packages also?
[18:02] <johnmane> ezerhoden: itunes refusesss to recognize the ipod for some reason
[18:02] <edgimar> How does one post enhancement requests in launchpad?  It seems it can only handle bug reports.
[18:04] <tsunami> Will these drivers work with 8.10:  http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=420&OSID=45&CatID=3220&SubCatID=158?
[18:04] <judas> my SPDIF only outputs in stereo - is there a conf file somewhere i have to change in order to enable surround/dts? any help or point in direction will be very much appreciated. thanks a million guys :)
[18:05] <Elch2001> hallo
[18:05] <Silverwing> tsunami, I guess they will, but I strongly recommend to backup you full system or important files..
[18:06] <Lokiase> should I install all updates before of after sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop?
[18:06] <jlaeret> hello, I have a problem with my thinkpad x61 tablet after I upgraded from hardy to intrepid. My wireless doesn't work anymore. There is no icon or anything. Does anyone know anything I can try?
[18:07] <fosco__> Lokiase, keeping the system up to date is always a good idea
[18:07] <Doonz> ok say i created a user who i want to have ssh access. i want the user to be locked in the home directy. in all the subdirectories i want that user to be able to create files and directories and be able to read everything. don't want to give delete or execute access
[18:07] <Silverwing> jlaeret, try this: press Alt+F2 and run NetworkManager and see if any icon appears
[18:07] <darksifer> Jack_Sparrow: i just installed nvidia drivers by synaptic and i set the effects to NONE and i think the flickering stopped. does that mean that i have to disable effects everytime i hav to play videos on my pc???
[18:07] <hwilde> what is the deal with netowkr manager and static IPs ??
[18:08] <jhass840> I have a quick question, is it unusual for my /var/log directory to be 12.9 GB?
[18:08] <jlaeret> Silverwing, thank you, I tried it but no icon appeared. Nothing changed. :S
[18:08] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: very big
[18:08] <Silverwing> jlaeret, I don't know how to fix it either then, sorry
[18:08] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: I know, is this unusual?
[18:08] <jlaeret> kay, thanks though!

[18:10] <unused_bagels> I need help finding and installing my intel graphics card driver
[18:10] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: how long time does this machine run already?
[18:10] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: you think about what to log on your machine
[18:11] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: please post 'ls -la /var/log/'

[18:14] <KenBW2> i installed Ubuntu, then i Installed Fedora, so Grub is done on the Fedora partition. I now want to install Windows 7 on the Fedora partition. How do i restore Grub to Ubuntu?
[18:14] <unused_bagels> ichbinesderelch lol I have a generic that works fine.
[18:14] <ichbinesderelch> !grub | KenBW2
[18:14] <loki28> i'm having a problem telneting from ubuntu to sco where the term variable isn't passed, seveas suggested it's being passed and sco isn't accepting it.  my question now is what is ubuntu doing differently since every telnet client i use to access sco sends the term type fine (putty, tun, anzio, anita)
[18:15] <alx_> mmm
[18:16] <alx_> may anyone help me in configuring sldapd to work in tls ?
[18:16] <bthornton> Evolution (on Ubuntu/Intrepid/amd64) just started a new thing on me today where starting a new message or attempting to reply to one immediately hard-locks Evolution. Has anyone ever seen this before?
[18:16] <unused_bagels> bash: !graphic: event not found
[18:17] <KenBW2> ichbinesderelch: is there not a way from within Ubuntu?
[18:17] <redast> hey guys, im trying to analyze kernel source code, any suggestions on the helpful websites?
[18:17] <redast> or does anywhere provides line by line explanation or something like that?
[18:18] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: you have several 2 gig sized logfiles created in ca. 12 hours
[18:18] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: if you install windows7 will erase the mbr, so you gotta use the livecd to do that, you won't be able to boot into ubuntu anymore
[18:18] <unused_bagels> how can I install / find my intel 945G graphx driver?
[18:18] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: like usual this is not normal
[18:18] <KenBW2> ichbinesderelch: no, what im trying to do is give Ubuntu control of Grub so that I can safely delete the Fedora partition
[18:18] <Jack_Sparrow> !kernel
[18:20] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: why are these files so large?  I've been running Intrepid since October and I've never had any problems like this until recently.  It gets to the point where I have to restart my machine because the system can't write to my xauthorization file
[18:20] <dominique> Is it possible to reinstall ubuntu but keeping /home (which lies on a separate partition)?
[18:20] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: than just do "sudo grub" in terminal, specify your boot partition with root(x,x) and than setup (x,x), quit the grub program, for more detailed infos read the wiki page ^^
[18:20] <The_Rebel> does anyone know how to get songbird working in Intrepid?
[18:20] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: how long is the uptime?
[18:20] <jonaskoelker> Hi all.  Question: When I build my latex document, I'm told there's "no room for a new \dimen".  I use texlive.  AIUI, I should give texlive more memory.  How do I go about that?
[18:21] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: and don't forget that grub counting partition numbers from 0, not form 1
[18:21] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: You mean how long do keep my system running before each reboot?
[18:21] <interested> Hi,  I'd like to know if there are ways to run some sort of script or program on an ubuntu system which will list the security issues for whichever programs currently installed may have had a USN
[18:21] <StR|Sangreal> please, which is the proper firefox directory to copy the new proprietary flashplugin ---.so in?
[18:21] <The_Rebel> does anyone know how to get songbird working in Intrepid?
[18:21] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: yes
[18:21] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: tell me the last reboot time
[18:22] <M3TAPHYS1CS> anyone know is AMSN is a good client?
[18:22] <jonaskoelker> interested: the package description of debsecan sounds relevant; I don't know it personally, though.  Would that work for you?
[18:22] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: around 12:00 AM this morning
[18:22] <jonaskoelker> M3TAPHYS1CS: I've found it works fine with webcam sessions
 for me , yes
[18:22] <aatish_> it is
[18:22] <jonaskoelker> M3TAPHYS1CS: but the widgetry looks unGNOMEish
[18:22] <interested> jonaskoelker: ill have a look tnx
[18:23] <KenBW2> ichbinesderelch: find /boot/grub/stage1 gives me (hd0,0) and (hd0,4)
[18:23] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: and ubuntu is installed on sda1? or sda5?
[18:23] <KenBW2> ichbinesderelch: sda1
[18:23] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: than root(0,0)
[18:24] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: root(hd0,0)
[18:24] <ceatinge> Why is openoffice.org 3.0 not in the standard repos yet?

[18:24] <tommy_> hi, I want to install ubuntu on silicon raid. raid0 is setup, but when I select disks it gives me 2 separate disks
[18:24] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: can you please paste 'cat /etc/syslog.conf'
[18:25] <horstle> hi
[18:25] <KenBW2> ichbinesderelch: "root (hd0,0)" seems to have worked
[18:25] <Bomber87> hello all!
[18:25] <KenBW2> ichbinesderelch: thanks for the help, ill see if it works :)
[18:26] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: perfectly, than just do a setup(hd0) and this will be it
[18:26] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: you did setup(hd0)? this is for installing it in the mbr again
[18:26] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: http://pastebin.com/m78be841c
[18:26] <KenBW2> ichbinesderelch: well, i did  setup (hd0,0)
[18:27] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: Can I erase some of these log files?
[18:27] <KenBW2> ichbinesderelch: it seemed to have done something, is it right?
[18:27] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: Or is that a bad idea
[18:27] <laeg> has anyone here been able to use bluetooth on intrepid?
[18:27] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: hhhm, you installed grub on hd0,0, unsure if that was too good
[18:27] <M3TAPHYS1CS> hmm thanks jonaskoelke and aatish i checked it out and its a good replacement
[18:27] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: yes u can :)
[18:27] <M3TAPHYS1CS> much better than pigin
[18:27] <M3TAPHYS1CS> *pidgin
[18:28] <KenBW2> ichbinesderelch: i just did setup (hd0) and it seems to have worked better
[18:28] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: but not the active logfile
[18:28] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: Okay great, thanks
[18:28] <Koordin> hi, i can't have the resolution 640x480 ; the desktop does not scale
[18:28] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: all *.gz
[18:28] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: hopefully you didn't screw the sda1 partition with the first command
[18:28] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: right, thank you
[18:28] <KenBW2> ichbinesderelch: uhoh lol
[18:28] <dominique> I'd like to put two partitions together
[18:29] <dominique> how to do that?
[18:29] <KenBW2> ichbinesderelch: well im gonna install 8.10 as a clean install after ive messed with Windows 7 anyway so any screwups aren't detrimental
[18:29] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: okay, than its not such a big prolem
[18:29] <KenBW2> ichbinesderelch: thanks a lot :)
[18:29] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: but something is really strange with your machine, you should lock at this
[18:29] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: youre welcome ;)
[18:30] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: deleting will not solve the problem
[18:30] <Soulwarp> i would like to know if there are any open source programs that can edit Theora video files
[18:30] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: well no, because it will just regenerate all the logs right?
[18:30] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: i think your kernel logs too much
[18:31] <mib_j6bfcu> Hello, anybody use an old ati 9200 with 8.10. and if so what driver do you use? Can i use the ati-driver-installer-8.28.8.run from amd site? Its the last official driver from them for my card.
[18:31] <jhass840> that's odd, it's the 2.6.27-9-generic I don't know why it would log more than anyone else's kernel.  What do you recommend I do about this?
[18:32] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: not regenerate they will be newly created and when the system must log because of a system failure the logfiles grow really fast
[18:32] <Koordin> hi, i can't have the resolution 640x480 ; the desktop does not scale
[18:33] <KenBW2> ichbinesderelch: yup, it worked :)
[18:33] <thinkpaduser> does anyone know what CPU kernel option i should use for an Intel Core 2 CPU T5500  @ 1.66GHz?
[18:33] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: you should see it by your hdd-led, is it flashing very often?
[18:33] <laeg> has anyone here been able to use bluetooth in intrepid?
[18:33] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: okay, that's what I meant but I explained it poorly.  What do you recommend I do about this?  I'm using 2.6.27-9-generic I don't know why it would log more than anyone else's
[18:34] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: Not right now, but sometimes it seems like it's on all the time
[18:34] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: nice one ;)
[18:34] <Soulwarp> i found it, Diva is the editor that supports Theora
[18:34] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: yes that is the buffer, if it is full everything is written to your logs
[18:35] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: we should look into your kernel.log file
[18:35] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: can you please paste the last 500 lines?
[18:35] <jhass840> of kern.log?
[18:36] <jgfjkjh> yes
[18:36] <CyL> how do I watch an international dvd on ubuntu?
[18:36] <tr3nd> How do I check if i have the latest kernel installed
[18:36] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: oddly enough, it's empty
[18:36] <ConstantineXVI> Trying the Qt tutorial in Ubuntu, and "#include <QtApplication>" is returning "No such file or directory"  What am i doing wrong?
[18:37] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: but the file has a size of 2gb
[18:37] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: please wait a while, to open a 2gb file takes some time i think
[18:38] <caboosification> i am trying to install ubuntu on an external hd and i am getting an error about 4096 sector size
[18:38] <caboosification> anyone know what that is about

[18:38] <KenBW2> can anyone suggest a reason why gparted won't let me add an NTFS partition?
[18:38] <M3TAPHYS1CS> Cyl, have you tried regionset?
[18:39] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: Okay, kern.log.0 is 1.8 GB but kern.log is empty.  Do you want kern.log.0 instead?
[18:39] <CyL> M3TAPHYS1CS: but i can only change mu dvd region 5 times, right?
[18:39] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: yes please
[18:39] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: no option for formatting it as ntfs?
[18:39] <KenBW2> ichbinesderelch: it's there, but greyed out
[18:39] <Izinucs> Hi Jack_Sparrow .. I'm not sure if !lamp was meant for me or not.. isn't there a recommended substitute for phpmyadmin?
[18:39] <ichbinesderelch> KenBW2: maybe ntfs-utils are missing?

[18:51] <elad`> How do I search for a file?
[18:51] <Koordin> Slart:  i've installed them following this : http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_180.22.html
[18:51] <Pici> olethri0s: You can safely remove that file with sudo without any problems.
[18:51] <Pici> olethri0s: Just be careful in the future running sudo -s or similar and using nano.
[18:52] <olethri0s> Okay, thanks!
[18:52] <Pici> elad`: find, check its manpage
[18:52] <Koordin> elad`: find /yourdirectory/ -name yourfile
[18:52] <olethri0s> Pici, AJC_Z0: Thanks a lot!
[18:53] <AJC_Z0> elad`: See also locate(1)
[18:53] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: It's still reading the file, but it appears to be repeating this message over and over again one after another. http://pastebin.com/m23063e6d
[18:53] <Koordin> how can i uninstall these drivers ? http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_180.22.html
[18:54] <ThomasD> hi, I just installed a PCI sata controller and I think its recognised, lspci gives me
[18:54] <ThomasD>  SATA controller: Initio Corporation INI-1623 PCI SATA-II Controller
[18:54] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: you have acpi problems i think, try kernel parameter acpi=off
[18:54] <ThomasD> but I cant find the hd attached to it anywhere?
[18:55] <elad`> How do I search by a file's contents, not its filename?
[18:55] <Heliodor> ThomasD: Cool name.
[18:55] <Heliodor> Mine is the same.
[18:55] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: I do this at boot time?
[18:55] <ThomasD> hehe
[18:55] <Izinucs> ThomasD: try sudo fdisk -l and note the location .. after that you'll need to add it to fstab if you want access all the time.
[18:55] <Koordin> elad`: grep -r * yourpattern
[18:56] <Amerikaner> hey guys, i just tried to install 8.10 and it freezes before login everytime, any ideas?
[18:56] <ThomasD> Izinucs: its not listed
[18:56] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: you know, I just noticed today that my swap partition has been turned off for some time now.  I fixed that problem this morning, do you think it is related?
[18:56] <AJC_Z0> Koordin: Did you install following those instructions? If so, then you need to determine if the install process added packages or just put files in your filesystem
[18:56] <Koordin> elad`: grep -r /yourdirectory/ yourpattern
[18:57] <nbeebo> hi im getting this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/107898/ what can i do?
[18:57] <AJC_Z0> Koordin: Why are you not using the Ubuntu packaged nvidia driver?
[18:57] <Koordin> AJC_Z0: yes i've followed the instructions with sh nvidia[...].run
[18:57] <nbeebo> sorry, maybe should say its about deluge
[18:57] <Izinucs> ThomasD: can you pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l ?
[18:57] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: i do not think
[18:58] <Koordin> AJC_Z0: cause i wanted to try the new drivers to fix a bug (it did fix it) ; now i want to try older ones to fix another bug i'm having (the 640x480 resolution does not work and i need it for starcraft)
[18:58] <Koordin> (it does not scale)
[18:58] <nbeebo> hi im getting this error about deluge: http://paste.ubuntu.com/107898/ what can i do? im kinda in a hurry this will be my last paste in a while
[18:58] <AJC_Z0> Koordin: So you have to determine from the install process output, documentation, etc. what running that program did to your system and what you need to remove
[18:59] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: This problem must have occurred recently, it came to my attention last Thursday but I thought I had fixed it.  I wonder why I would have ACPI problems all of a sudden
[19:00] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: you should append it to your kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[19:00] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: then reboot
[19:00] <jhass840> okay
[19:01] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: And then I should delete those massive log files?
[19:01] <Koordin> AJC_Z0: i found it : sudo nvidia-installer --uninstall
[19:02] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: when you need more space you can
[19:03] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: What should I do about ACPI long term?
[19:03] <AJC_Z0> Koordin: Good. Next time be way of any kind of "installer" and if you run one then learn how you can use tools like "find -newer" to see changes
[19:03] <Koordin> AJC_Z0: ok thanks
[19:04] <emil_> i got a problem.. i cant find files on my desktop thrue my promt
[19:04] <Slart> emil_: cd ~/Desktop; ls
[19:04] <emil_> i get a message telling me there is np file called that..
[19:04] <Slart> emil_: that doesn't show them?
[19:04] <AJC_Z0> emil_: What do you see in ~/Desktop ?
[19:04] <judas> is there a way of listing alsa devices?
[19:05] <Slart> judas: cat /proc/asound/cards
[19:05] <Slart> judas: there are lots of stuff in the /proc/asound folder.. look around
[19:05] <emil_> i see some folders
[19:05] <judas> Slart: thanks a million bro :)
[19:05] <Slart> judas: you're welcome
[19:06] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: look at the logs when you booted with acpi=off
[19:06] <emil_> i've downloaded a theme.. then it says i shall copy some command into the promt.. but i cant find the file
[19:07] <nbah> how do I get back to TTYs from FluxBox?
[19:07] <circuitfire> hey all
[19:07] <jhass840> jgfjkjh: Alright, well I'll go ahead and do that now since I'm assuming it's no longer necessary to wait for kern.log.0 to finish displaying.
[19:07] <Deany> thoughts on replacing ext3 with xfs for my home.
[19:08] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: you can abort reading the file
[19:08] <jgfjkjh> jhass840: i don't need the informations anymore
[19:08] <circuitfire> does anyone know of a resolution to gcalctool failing to start due to a libcairopango error?
[19:08] <setuid_w00t> What are the input files to update-initramfs?  I'm part way through a hard drive migration that isn't going very well and I'm trying to figure out how to fix my problem.
[19:10] <temppy> Deany: why not use ext4?
[19:10] <|sundown|> who coded video using mencoder?
[19:10] <emil_> if i type ~/desktop; ls what am i supposted to see.. the files/folders showing is not on my desktop
[19:10] <Deany> its just as slow
[19:10] <temppy> emil_: its ~/Desktop
[19:11] <mibb> Ok.. another issue with my bash history.. I set the shopt -a histappend option and also the HISTFILE env variable but different terminals don't share histories and whats worse is that the file corresponding to HISTFILE is never created!
[19:11] <temppy> Deany: ok, well, I heard its faster....
[19:11] <rootrot> hi im looking to find a list of my copmuter specs ram/cpu/videocard etc is there a command to do that that isnt as detailed as lspcia?
[19:11] <Slart> emil_: they should be.. that's normally the place where your desktop files are stored
[19:11] <mibb> So where does it read the multiple histories from??
[19:11] <Deany> i dont like how extX drags my system down when making a HD for vbox,  when unrar`n a 4gig iso...
[19:12] <Deany> its journaling isnt it?  xfs i mean
[19:12] <temppy> rootrot: lshw but its just as detailed as lspcmcia
[19:12] <jgfjkjh> yes
[19:12] <Slart> emil_: Deany both ext3 and xfs  are journalling filesystems, afaik
[19:12] <emil_> so everything that is downloaded and i see on my desktop shall be seen in the promt when i type ~/Desktop; ls
[19:12] <Slart> emil_: yes
[19:12] <Deany> k.. think i`ll make it xfs
[19:12] <laeg> does anyone know of a fix to make bluetooth work in ibex like it did in hardy?
[19:13] <ThomasD> Izinucs: still there
[19:13] <Izinucs> ThomasD: yep
[19:13] <laeg> ubuntu should not put out half assed releases.
[19:13] <emil_> oh how silly..
[19:13] <mibb> I set the shopt -a histappend option and also the HISTFILE env variable but different terminals don't share histories and whats worse is that the file corresponding to HISTFILE is never created! Help me out someone..
[19:13] <emil_> thanks alot
[19:13] <temppy> emil_: well, its ls ~/Desktop
[19:13] <ryan__> guys how do i check out the equvilant of right clicking and viewing the properties of a hdd..ie size?
[19:13] <npope> laeg: it does not, it puts out an LTS and a Development release
[19:14] <emil_> thanks.. i saw what i did wrong
[19:14] <ThomasD> Izinucs: http://pastebin.ca/1315052 the kernel module for the sata controller gives an error at boot
[19:14] <judas> i tried configuring gxine to use passthrough - when i do that i get digital-like noises from my speakers. do you guys think that it is because i need to use a different device name in the config? or is there something else i need to do in order to fully enable passthrough?
[19:15] <mibb> god this sucks
[19:15] <ThomasD> Izinucs: you have any idea?
[19:15] <Izinucs> ThomasD: not sure but it looks like an ACPI issue.. you might need to add something to the kernel line about turning off ACPI but I'm not sure of the verbiage..
[19:19] <Enselic> Suddently this process has spawned and it's taking up 100% on one of my cores, and has done for like 15 minutes now: /bin/dd bs 1 if /proc/kmsg of /var/run/klogd/kmsg    Anyone have any pointers on what might be the cause?
[19:19] <jado> i have a big prolem : "the Nvidia kernel module has version 180.22, but this nvidia driver component has version 180.11" how can i uninstall the 180.22 kernel module ?
[19:19] <GrizzLyCRO> I am using Ubuntu(gnome) Nvidia Twinview, 1 display 1680x1050 normal and secondary 1280x1024(panning 2416x1050) when i start blender it runs maximzed on secondary,i cant rezize it, move it, or unmaximize it, iwant it to cover both screens
[19:20] <Izinucs> jado: with the install binary saved you can get in that directory and sudo <name of nvidia binary> --remove and that should get it done.. it's also listed on nvidia's site
[19:20] <Gaming4JC> Hey All, I am at the last line in a tutorial for making a deb, it tells me to enter "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot" the problem is I get this error: # Add here commands to clean up after the build process. make: *** [clean] Error 2.... anyone know how to fix/bypass this clean?
[19:21] <Slart> has the tracker/document indexer been removed from intrepid? or I have uninstalled it and forgot about it?
[19:21] <hwilde> hello I have a dualboot laptop ubuntu8.10 and winXP pro.  I would like to boot into ubuntu and run the xp partition as a vm.  is this possible?  it seems only possible to reinstall windows inside the vm :/
[19:21] <Izinucs> Slart: you must have done it..
[19:21] <Izinucs> Slart: or stopped it from starting in the first place..
[19:22] <hwilde> Slart, I have trackerd and tracker-applet running
[19:22] <Steelflint> Slart, Look in your System/Preferences menu for "Search and Indexing".
[19:22] <npope> hwilde: mount the partition in VMware as the disk you want to use to boot Windows
[19:22] <dmsuperman> I'm having some issues resuming from hibernate on my laptop. I come back, and I seem to have many video-related issues (things stop redrawing, occasionally GNOME completely locks up). I have an Acer Aspire 4530 laptop running AMD Athlon 64 X2 with a nvidia 9100M G and Atheros AR9280 wifi chipset.
[19:22] <laeg> npope: if there was a note saying "you can upgrade to 8.10 sure, but none of your bluetooth devices are going to work" i wouldn't have upgraded
[19:22] <Gaming4JC> hwilde: I don't believe it's possible to run an existing Windows Installtion inside a virtual machine, but you could try #qemu
[19:22] <Slart> ahh.. they've changed the name ... thanks Izinucs, hwilde, Steelflint
[19:22] <Izinucs> hwilde: there are some older tutorials on the web about doing that in vmware.. but the operative word is CAUTION.. you might seriously bork your windows install.
[19:22] <jado> Izinucs: "There is no NVIDIA driver currently installed"
[19:22] <npope> laeg: 8.10 is DEVELOPMENT
[19:22] <Gaming4JC> I run virtual machines often :)
[19:22] <npope> 8.04 is LTS
[19:23] <laeg> npope: i mean, if it's not going to work why is it even included as an option under preferences
[19:23] <quiksilver> whats the best software for burning audio cd's on ubuntu?
[19:23] <dmsuperman> npope: 8.10 is release...
[19:23] <hwilde> quiksilver, brazero
[19:23] <dmsuperman> npope: 9.04 is still in alpha/beta...
[19:23] <hwilde> npope, jaunty is dev.
[19:23] <quiksilver> hwilde: i just tried but it burnt a data cd...
[19:23] <npope> dmsuperman: yes it is but it is a development release which will get to the next LTS
[19:23] <Gaming4JC> so does anyone know how to correctly MAKE a DEB? I keep getting "Clean error 2" upon compile.
[19:23] <hwilde> quiksilver, when you insert the blank cd it should ask what type of project do you want, choose audio cd
[19:24] <temppy> Gaming4JC: try #ubuntu-motu
[19:24] <Steelflint> Slart: I haven't actually used that feature yet, is it actually useful? In windows I didn't use theirs much.
[19:24] <dmsuperman> npope: You make it sound like it's not a full version, which it is
[19:24] <hekaldama> Enselic: maybe this will help http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-274386.html, a little old but might help
[19:24] <dmsuperman> npope: The only difference between hardy and intrepid is that hardy will have a longer support period
[19:24] <Izinucs> jado: as for the kernel module.. I don't know.. that's a different command. If nobody has the answer then you might install the driver that you need to remove.. then actually remove it the right way and it should take the kernel portion as well.
[19:24] <Gaming4JC> temppy: k I'll check it out
[19:24] <soreau> What would you guys say for this? <zevs> ставь 175
[19:24] <npope> dmsuperman: theres a lot more diffrences than that
[19:24] <Slart> Steelflint: I'm not sure yet.. but I have 36 GB of pdf's I'd rather not grep everytime I want to search for something
[19:24] <ThomasD> Izinucs: how do you get the idea its ACPI issue?
[19:24] <jado> Izinucs: when that's what i was thinking of
[19:25] <Steelflint> Slart, Ahh, good point.
[19:25] <jado> -when +yes
[19:25] <Slart> Steelflint: I've never used it for just searching my home folder and such
[19:25] <calwig> Id like to know the startup information from the boot process in ubuntu... where does it reside?
[19:25] <_Vi_> 36GiB of .pdfs??!!? what did you do down load the entire Wikipedia?
[19:25] <Izinucs> ThomasD: in the pastebin in 2 of the lines it specifically mentions ACPI
[19:25] <dmsuperman> npope: There are normal differences between them just as there were between gutsy and hardy and feisty and gutsy
[19:25] <DeadFishMan> lol
[19:25] <Slart> _Vi_: it's a year worth of a local newspaper
[19:26] <_Vi_> dang thats almost my entire HDD Slart (40GiB)
[19:26] <VioletsPie> what is the equivalent of control alt delete to end programs in Ubuntu?  For example a game freezing in Wine
[19:26] <ThomasD> Izinucs: true :-)
[19:26] <Slart> _Vi_: the cheap <bad people> don't want to put up an archive of old newspapers.. but they make todays paper available on their website.. say hello to mr wget and mr cron =)
[19:26] <dmsuperman> I'm having some issues resuming from hibernate on my laptop. I come back, and I seem to have many video-related issues (things stop redrawing, occasionally GNOME completely locks up). I have an Acer Aspire 4530 laptop running AMD Athlon 64 X2 with a nvidia 9100M G and Atheros AR9280 wifi chipset.
[19:27] <Slart> _Vi_: hehe.. I've got the room to spare =)
[19:27] <_Vi_> Slart: yeah my newspaper is the same way, that's a good idea actually
[19:27]  * _illuminati says IRC is nothing but multiplayer notepad. :D
[19:27] <sysdoc> Evolution: is there is a way to export the contacts for import into Thunderbird? I have tried using KAddressBook in the middle from the forum, and that just didn't work well at all..
[19:28]  * Slart says _illuminati should stop reading irc quote databases
[19:28] <_Vi_> Slart: how exactly do you do wget to make it a .pdf though? could you PM me on how?

[19:28] <ickis> Hi, I want to host a domain in my Ubuntu server, should I need to use bind9?
[19:28] <CaptainMorgan> I've tried to install SWFDec and GNash and even the more default Adobe Non-free Flash plugin- *nothing* works, and now after trying each one separately, I've got them all installed and no matter what I can't get flash to play in my F3 browser... any ideas?
[19:28] <|sundown|> who coded video using mencoder?
[19:28] <Steelflint> _Vi_, They probably host it in PDF form.
[19:28] <Slart> _Vi_: they offer a pdf for download.. I just download them
[19:28] <CaptainMorgan> and I'm using X86_64
[19:28] <_Vi_> ah nicde
[19:28] <_Vi_> nice
[19:28] <biouser> what can I install that will remove my fglrx drivers?  I want to go with the open-source ...
[19:29] <Slart> _Vi_: but I guess you could use firefox and a pdf-printer .. it wouldn't be as pretty.. but it would work I guess
[19:29] <biouser> +fglrx is broken in jaunty for me right now
[19:29] <FireFox> just leave me alone Slart ;)
[19:29] <Enselic> |sundown|: I have

[19:30] <Betty_Lee> hi to all
[19:30] <GrizzLyCRO> if anyone finsds similar problem, solution is blender -p 40 40 800 600
[19:30] <Izinucs> jado: no problem.. I figured that would be the easiest way.. which driver do you actually use.. I'm thinking of upgrading from the 180.11 to the 180.22
[19:30] <|sundown|> Enselic: I need to recode uncompressed avi in compressed format for viewing on XP
[19:30] <Betty_Lee> ккому надо тот понял епте
[19:30] <setuid_w00t> If I boot with the ubuntu live CD and then I want to chroot to an existing installation on a hard drive, what do I have to do to get the devices in /dev showing up properly under the chroot?
[19:30] <judas> what package do i need to install to get ossinfo?
[19:30] <helloworld> i have acl working .. and it's doing it's job! but i was wondering if there was a way to set the acl permissions to always be recursive. for example, if i create a folder AFTER setting the acl permissions i have to reset the acl permissions on that new folder.. i dont want to have to do this!
[19:31] <Ward1983> thanx for packaging old kvm crap
[19:31] <Ward1983> :(
[19:31] <blueapples> hey guys i am running kontact under gnome and getting output on my shell even when i run it from an app launcher... any ideas why that might happen?
[19:31] <jado> Izinucs: i was using 180.22 but i had a bug with it (the resolution 640x480 did not scale on the screen)
[19:31] <frostschutz> is selinux usually included in ubuntu or did I mess up my install?
[19:31] <Izinucs> jado: and which nvidia card do you have?
[19:32] <edju> is it possible to install vista into a vm w/ just the "recovery" disks?
[19:32] <Betty_Lee> fucking radeon video cards....
[19:32] <jado> Izinucs: 7200
[19:32] <Slart> !language | Betty_Lee
[19:32] <gonewestcoast> edju: Not likely.
[19:32] <jado> Izinucs: but i've just tried, and the 640x480 resolution does not work either with the 180.11 drivers
[19:32] <AJC_Z0> jado: Are you sure you tried the right settings via nvidia-settings?
[19:32] <Betty_Lee> sorry
[19:32] <gonewestcoast> edju: You'd have to mess with nlite.
[19:33] <edju> gonewestcoast, nlite?
[19:33] <biouser> Betty_Lee yes, how do I go to the open-source video driver?
[19:33] <jado> AJC_Z0: no i haven't ; i've tried xrandr --size 640x480
[19:33] <gonewestcoast> edju: http://www.letmegooglethatforyou.com/?q=nlite
[19:33] <biouser> my Radeon is now broked in jaunty
[19:33] <|sundown|> I need to recode uncompressed avi in compressed format for viewing on XP - can any help me?
[19:33] <biouser> \it says I have not proprietary drivers install
[19:33] <AJC_Z0> jado: For configuring nvidia driven desktops, you need to run nvidia-settings as the user (and as root if you want system-wide changes)
[19:34] <biouser> which is what I want I suppose but I had to go into low resolution mode
[19:34] <Izinucs> jado: ah.. I have an onboard 8200 that was dog slow with the 173 and 177.. once I put the 180 in it was tolerable but nothing like my agp 6600GT .. remember that resolution is handled by xrandr and if your supported rez isn't in xrandr's list you have to add it.. nothing to do with xorg
[19:34] <one_2_one> hi all
[19:34] <Betty_Lee> biouser: hell if i now
[19:35] <Jado``> AJC_Z0: ok i'll tr
[19:35] <Jado``> try*
[19:35] <perlsyntax> if i going to setup my aircard for att i need to use the network manger?
[19:35] <perlsyntax> if  i am right
[19:35] <Jado``> Izinucs: xrandr handle 640x480 ; but the desktop that is displayed does not scale on the screen ; it is higher, so i can't see it all
[19:36] <one_2_one> in networkmanager how can i block an wireless network?
[19:36] <CaptainMorgan> Using a X86_64 system, I've tried to install SWFDec, GNash and even the more default Adobe Non-free Flash plugin, non of them works, and now after trying each one separately, I've got them all installed and no matter what I can't get flash to play in my F3 browser... any ideas?
[19:36] <calwig> can anyone help me on a nautilus seg fault?
[19:36] <DeadFishMan> |sundown|: Try mencoder -oac mp3lame -ovc xvid sourcevideo.avi -o targetvideo.avi
[19:37] <The_Rebel> does anyone know how to get songbird working in Intrepid?
[19:37] <ortsvorsteher> CaptainMorgan: just deinstall all flash instead of flash-plugin-nonfree
[19:37] <DeadFishMan> |sundown|: mencoder -ovc help and mencoder -oac help will give you a list of supported output codecs for video and audio respectively
[19:38] <ickis>  Do I need to install bind9 to set up the hosting of my domain or just point the dns-server to my own static ip?

[19:38] <CaptainMorgan> ortsvorsteher, what do you mean exactly? uninstall all *except* non-free? please note, that I'm reiterating that I've each separately ...
[19:38] <DeadFishMan> |sundown|: If you're not too fond of command line tools, try Avidemux or Thin Liquid Film
[19:38] <Izinucs> M3TAPHYS1CS: what's WinAVI?
[19:38] <Amerikaner> can anybody help me to boot into 8.10? it freezes before login
[19:38] <CaptainMorgan> ortsvorsteher, meaning, if one didn't work, then I uninstalled it and then tried the next one... repeating the process
[19:38] <M3TAPHYS1CS> conversion software for converting AVI/xvids to DVD
[19:39] <ickis> :ickis
[19:39] <Jado``> AJC_Z0: i've tried nvidia-settings with 640x480 ; but i have the same problem ; i'll try with nvidia-glx-177 and tell
[19:39] <DeadFishMan> M3TAPHYS1CS: If you're looking for DVD authoring software, try QDVDAuthor
[19:40] <ortsvorsteher> CaptainMorgan: ok. i have only the flashplugin nonfree installed. look in ff about:plugins to see which flash plugin is installed
[19:40] <|sundown|> DeadFishMan: must be in command line
[19:40] <|sundown|> DeadFishMan: after encoding mpeg4 codec is a file with a black screen and sound in order
[19:41] <DeadFishMan> Then try mencoder. The example that I gave is only the tip of the iceberg. There are several others options that let you do pretty much anything with a video
[19:41] <M3TAPHYS1CS> DeadFishMan, from the website it doesnt appear to convert XviD to DVD format
[19:41] <pyro2927> does anyone know of a good N64 emulator for ubuntu?
[19:41] <DeadFishMan> pyro2927: Have you tried mupen?
[19:41] <Amerikaner> can anybody help me boot into 8.10?  it freezes before login
[19:42] <shubbar> i need help on port forwarding for Ekiga on my router
[19:42] <pyro2927> DeadFishMan: no. is it good?
[19:42] <DeadFishMan> |sundown|: What is the command line flags that you're using with mencoder?
[19:42] <Izinucs> shubbar: you shouldn't the stun server built into ekiga usually transverses it pretty well.
[19:43] <agz> I want to emulate a user before the computer - so keyboard and mouse control, sequential screenshots to process.. any idea with which libraries I could build such a system? (please save the trivial jokes :))
[19:43] <|sundown|> mencoder "$file12" -o "$file2" -ofps 10  -of lavf -oac mp3lame -lameopts abr:br=56 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=flv:vpass=1:vbitrate=100:mbd=2:mv0:trell:v4mv:cbp:last_pred=3:subq=1 -srate 22050 -vf scale=320:240
[19:43] <DeadFishMan> |sundown|: I usually convert some animes encoded with Matroska to XviD so that I can watch in my set top DVD recorder and it works just fine (some might require to resize or crop the video, but that's all)....
[19:43] <TheFunkbomb> quick question... how do I know if I can trust a third party repository?
[19:43] <CaptainMorgan> ortsvorsteher, I'm not familiar with that command listing... under Totem, it lists basic plugins, one of which is flash: video/flv after removing nonfree, I don't even see the GNash or SWFdec plugins that I installed via browser... weird
[19:43] <DeadFishMan> pyro2927: I have a large collection of N64 roms but haven't played them for quite a while. But last time that I tried, most ran okay.
[19:44] <M3TAPHYS1CS> im looking for a reverse handbreak basically
[19:44] <Na-Fiann> Hi, pulseaudio keeps crashing on me, with the error: Hard CPU time limit exhausted, terminating forcibly
[19:44] <ortsvorsteher> CaptainMorgan: i just tiped in the address location about:plugins in FF.
[19:44] <Bokenrosie> I just installed Ubuntu on Dell Inspirion Laptop.  Is there some sort of module I need to tell laptop to relax?  It's fan is running, normally does not while in windows.
[19:45] <Na-Fiann> i'm on intrepid, audio driver is snd_hda_intel
[19:45] <tr3nd> My graphic drivers doesnt work! I have turned off compiz, but when I watch movies there are still flickering and the pictures is sometimes blurred. How to fix this?
[19:45] <DeadFishMan> M3TAPHYS1CS: I never used it to author DVDs myself, but my understanding is that it will take anything that mencoder (or ffmpeg?) accepts as input and will convert to MPEG2 to record on a video DVD
[19:45] <CaptainMorgan> ortsvorsteher, I'm familiar with *how to type it in* :) I'm saying I'm not familiar with its listing or what it represents... for example, do you have a Totem section as a result of the command?
[19:46] <olethri0s> Is it strange for Dolphin to just show up if you didn't install it?
[19:46] <N0xTrUm> hi
[19:46] <M3TAPHYS1CS> DeadFishMan, i see that but MPEG 2 isnt the output i need, it needs to be .VOB
[19:46] <TheFunkbomb> Is Launchpad.net a safe repository?
[19:46] <DeadFishMan> |sundown|: Your options seem OK to me. Have you tried choosing a different output codec?
[19:47] <Izinucs> olethri0s: in kubuntu? the latest? it has kde 4.1 and dolphin is the default
[19:47] <olethri0s> Izinucs: Ubuntu intrepid
[19:47] <Izinucs> olethri0s: and it has Dolphin installed?
[19:47] <Pici> TheFunkbomb: If you're referring to ppa.launchpad.net, then it depends on the packages that you're getting from it.
[19:47] <M3TAPHYS1CS> DeadFishMan, just letting you know i managed to find software to do this, DeVeDe
[19:48] <olethri0s> Izinucs: Yeah, it just showed up in access. -> sys tools
[19:48] <DeadFishMan> M3TAPHYS1CS: Then I dunno. I think that it might let you create the .VOB files and a k3b project so that you can burn the media later or something like that...
[19:48] <TheFunkbomb> Pici, I'm having trouble with audacity and found this: https://launchpad.net/~diwic/+archive
[19:48] <ortsvorsteher> CaptainMorgan: sry ;) yes, i have a totem section with the following: http://paste.ubuntu.com/107926/
[19:48] <shubbar> Izinucs, This is what Configuration Druid in Ekiga told me:
[19:48] <shubbar> "Ekiga detected Symmetric NAT. The most appropriate method, if your router does not natively support SIP or H.323, is to forward the required port to your internal machine in order to change your Symmetric NAT into Cone NAT. If you run this test again after the port forwarding has been done, it should report Cone NAT. This should allow Ekiga to be used with STUN support enabled. If it does not report Cone NAT, then it means that there is a problem in your f
[19:48] <shubbar> orwarding rules. "
[19:48] <DeadFishMan> M3TAPHYS1CS: Glad to hear that you found it! ^_^
[19:48] <M3TAPHYS1CS> me too =)
[19:48] <|sundown|> DeadFishMan: flv wmv1 tried the same result
[19:48] <rohil> Hi guys , I find Opera to be faster than Firefox in Ubuntu 8.10. Which one is faster in yours ?
[19:48] <CaptainMorgan> ortsvorsteher, ok... can you show me the section where you see it listing the nonfree plugin?
[19:49] <Izinucs> olethri0s: that either means that you installed it or some other kde program you installed pulled it in as a dependancy.. weird.
[19:49] <Pici> TheFunkbomb: Its up to you to decide whether its safe to install. Just like any other repository.
[19:49] <CaptainMorgan> ortsvorsteher, because I had it installed and when performing that command, I didn't see it listed...
[19:49] <Izinucs> shubbar: k.. does it mention which ports need to be forwarded?
[19:49] <TheFunkbomb> Pici, well, I guess I shouldn't then
[19:49] <olethri0s> Izinucs: Yeah, iuno. I don't even remember installing anything recently... Well, just as long as this isn't a vuln.
[19:50] <captap> when setting up a wired network connection, where do you put the subnet? is it the same as netmask?
[19:50] <DeadFishMan> |sundown|: Why are you trying the framerate and resizing the video? I had some problems in the past resizing some videos using mencoder.... Try without that and see if it works?
[19:50] <ortsvorsteher> CaptainMorgan: http://paste.ubuntu.com/107928/ look there. ist it like in your browser?
[19:50] <shubbar> from Ekiga site wiki, they mention it http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/Enable_port_forwarding_manually
[19:51] <CaptainMorgan> ortsvorsteher, yea.. that's how mine looks... I don't understand this...
[19:51] <DeadFishMan> |sundown| If that does not work, try asking in #mplayer. They helped me a lot when I was lost with mencoder flags ^^
[19:51] <olethri0s> Izinucs: OH! That's it by the way. Tor messed with konqueror, and kon. must've pulled it in according to synaptic.
[19:51] <ortsvorsteher> CaptainMorgan: after installing flash and deinstalling it, you quitted your browser?
[19:51] <|sundown|> DeadFishMan: thanks!!
[19:52] <Izinucs> shubbar: http://portforward.com/ has instructions on setting things up for your router.
[19:52] <shubbar> izinucs, but it does not mention Ekiga application
[19:53] <CaptainMorgan> ortsvorsteher, yep, cleared cache & cookies, the whole bit...
[19:53] <ghostlines> evolution keeps starting up after my laptop wakes up after suspend
[19:54] <Izinucs> shubbar: your first link showed two different lines that mention the ports that need to be forwarded.. you need to apply that to your specific router.. check the instruction on the link I gave you and the instructions for your router.
[19:54] <ortsvorsteher> CaptainMorgan: sorry , so i have no idea. did you searched the web for your problem? surely yes i think
[19:54] <ghostlines> does anyone else also have this prob?
[19:54] <ickis> Hi I'm trying to host a domain in my Ubuntu server. Shoul I need to set up bind9 ? Or just point the domain to my static ip address?
[19:54] <CaptainMorgan>  ortsvorsteher yep... I'll keep hunting I guess..
[19:54] <CaptainMorgan> ortsvorsteher, thank you for your time :)
[19:54] <Jado> i still can't have the 640x480 resolution :(
[19:55] <Mimi> Anyone want to pastebin their mouse xbindkeys file? I don't feel like doing it all by scratch :/

[19:55] <Xintruder> hey guys, im working on a dissertation project relating to wondows and ubuntu. I posted my question here: http://www.hackerthreads.org/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=39505 Appreciate your help
[19:55] <barduck> does anyone know if mdadm should automatically re-add a devide to RAID5 after it was removed and the raid degraded whem the device becomes availble again ?
[19:55] <detrate> quick question about mounting in fstab
[19:56] <detrate> I can just add a line as such >> /dev/sda1 /media/Avaritia ntfs-3g defaults 0 0
[19:56] <shubbar> izinucs, ok, these instruction are clearer http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/Ekiga_behind_a_NAT_router
[19:56] <detrate> and it will add on boot?
[19:56] <detrate> I need nothing else?
[19:56] <detrate> err, actually I want to mount that to /mnt/Avaritia -- would that make a difference?
[19:56] <Jado> hi i need help ; i can't have the 640x480 resolution : my desktop does not scale on the screen
[19:57] <Pici> detrate: the folder /mnt/Avaritia must exist first, thats all.
[19:57] <detrate> Pici: so mkdir /mnt/Avarita ?
[19:57] <Pici> detrate: Prefix it with sudo
[19:57] <Simonono> Quick question about graphiccards. Is it possible to allocate some of my standard RAM to graphics card? I have 2 gb RAM but only 128 mb on my nVidia 7300 GO graphics card.
[19:57] <detrate> yarr, thanks
[19:57] <detrate> yay, now I can index my RAID array :D
[19:58] <Pici> Jado: You may want to rephrase your question or add some additional information so that someone may be able to help you better.
[19:58] <DeadFishMan> |sundown|: np!
[19:59] <Jado> Pici: if i whoose the 640x480 resolution (with xrandr --size 640x480 or nvidia-settings), the desktop does not appear entirely on my screen and i can't see the bottom part of it. With other resolutoins, such as 800x600 or 1280x800, i can see all the desktop and not only a part
[19:59] <Jado> chose*
[19:59] <blacklemon67> Is it ok to keep my laptop on 24/7 with ubuntu?
[20:00] <jpds> blacklemon67: You'd waste a lot of power, but you could if you want.
[20:00] <Kiption> there's not really a problem with it, and it'll hurt your laptop just because it'll overheat due to being on
[20:00] <Mimi> blacklemon67, sure, as long as your laptop has got a good fan and cooling, and as long as your cat doesn't sit on your laptop.  Your hard drive might die MUCH faster too.
[20:00] <isiah> blackemon67: the problems computers get from being on are OS independent
[20:01] <blacklemon67> So I can use it as a server?
[20:01] <Techdeck> Hey guys, do you know a good mail client for X other than evolution that can connect to an exchange server? evolution is simply a piece of crap.
[20:01] <blacklemon67> and by die faster, what do you mean?
[20:01] <nbeebo> dont know if this is right channel but, how to watch my tv and use the tv as a monitor for my computer at the same time? kinda, if u understand but cant answer plz help me rephrase... lol .. yes i use ubuntu
[20:01] <Jado> Pici: any idea ?
[20:01] <blacklemon67> Techdeck: Thunder Bird?
[20:01] <Simonono> Techdeck: Mozilla Thunderbird is very good
[20:01] <laeg> !blueman
[20:02] <SiDi> blacklemon67: hardware in laptops is not meant to be used as server hardware.
[20:02] <Pici> Jado: I dont, but if you ask the channel, someone else may know.
[20:02] <Techdeck> thunder bird can connect to exchange?
[20:02] <Techdeck> since when?
[20:02] <SiDi> blacklemon67: HDDs are much stronger in servers, and cooling systems too
[20:02] <DeadFishMan> Gotta pack my stuff and go. See you guys later.
[20:02] <Techdeck> (not with POP3, I need it to use the exchange protocol)
[20:02] <Techdeck> like evolution
[20:02] <genii> blacklemon67: The longer any machine remains on the more prone to hardware faiure it becomes. Since laptops are not designed with the idea of being on 24/7 odds are it will fail sooner than a desktop.
[20:02] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | Techdeck
[20:02] <Mimi> blacklemon67, like SiDi  said, laptops are not meant to be on all the time. But laptop hard drives, regarless of OS, tend to die in a few years. So by having your laptop on 24/7, you're making your hard drive die even sooner
[20:03] <Jado> Dear channel, i need some help : if i choose the 640x480 resolution (xrandr --size 640x480 or nvidia-settings), the desktop does not appear entirely on my screen and i can't see the bottom part of it. With other resolutoins, such as 800x600 or 1280x800, i can see all the desktop and not only a part
[20:03] <jgfjkjh> Techdeck: evolution connect to exchange over owa
[20:03] <Techdeck> that's fine by me
[20:03] <Techdeck> as long as it works
[20:03] <Techdeck> I tried thunderbird and it didn't seem to work properly
[20:04] <laserdrill> Hi all. In installed ltsp5 on my Ubuntu 8.04 AMD64 terminal server
[20:04] <jgfjkjh> techdeck: with mails good but no automatic calender entries etc...
[20:04] <laserdrill> It worked fine then I updated the server recently and the terminal server stopped working. Anyone here uses Ubuntu terminal server?
[20:05] <keul> yop all
[20:05] <Mimi> So does anyone want to send / pastebin a mouse (mine is logitech media play, but it doesnt matter)  xbindkeys file?
[20:05] <Techdeck> evolution is not working properly for me jgfjkjh. I need an alternative.
[20:05] <jgfjkjh> Techdeck: Exchange=Server, Client=Outlook
[20:05] <Jado> Mimi: what's that ?
[20:05] <Mimi> Jado, it makes all your mouse buttons (next song, volume up, etc) work. But mine doesn't work anymore
[20:05] <jgfjkjh> Techdec: anything else make lot of problems
[20:06] <Simonono> Quick question about graphiccards. Is it possible to allocate some of my standard RAM to graphics card? I have 2 gb RAM but only 128 mb on my nVidia 7300 GO graphics card.

[20:09] <Mimi> giacomo_c, http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2735/ubuntu_place_trash_icon_on_desktop/
[20:09] <Simonono> giacomo_c: You can install screenlets from gnome-look.org. It has a themeable trashcan, that you can resize.
[20:09] <ubuntu> damn
[20:10] <ubuntu> is there a way to get the next release?
[20:10] <giacomo_c> i have gnome

[20:14] <ubuntu> most likly thats not so easy, is it?
[20:15] <CyberGabber> laeg: Maybe you have Synaptic open ?

[20:16] <Mimi> Anyone who's got Volume Up/Down and Next/Previous Song working on your mouse... can I have your config? :(
[20:17] <ickis> Do I need to install bind9 to set up the hosting of my domain or just point the dns-server to my own static ip?
[20:17] <sevenseeker> does anyone use sox from the ubuntu sox package?
[20:17] <slashzul> how do you change your canonical landscape to autoupdate ?
[20:17] <Mimi> M3TAPHYS1CS, grab a theme from gnome-look.org, drag the .tgz file to the Apearance window (right click desktop, click change desktoip background)
[20:17] <laeg> TwoD: are you using pulseaudio?
[20:18] <TwoD> laeg, yes
[20:18] <mike12>  Hi my memory is near full on my dell ispiron 9 mini iam running ubuntu 8.10 will the lack of memory stop me from opening fire fox
[20:18] <laeg> TwoD: 99% chance it's puleaudio
[20:18] <TwoD> laeg, restart it?
[20:18] <zenwryly> I use ratpoison as my WM under a gnome session so I'd like to do away with the panel.  Before intrepid, I could do this in gnome-session-properties.  How can I prevent gnome-panel starting up under intrepid?
[20:18] <_Vi_> mike12: you should see whats eating the memory by typing top in a terminal
[20:18] <mike12> ok thanks

[20:19] <Deany> these Eee pc`s,  someone has an asus one, it has what i think is a variation of xubuntu or gnome/ubuntu im not sure, the desktop she showed me was like a kiddies type of thing.. can you install ubuntu on these without much knowledge other than just installing it..
[20:19] <mike12> what is metacity
[20:19] <Deany> i mean, im thinkin about driver nightmare
[20:20] <_Vi_> mike12: that is the window manager for Gnome
[20:20] <earlak> Hi, I am using a Nvidia driver that Ubuntu downloaded for me and it is causing all the words to go away on the programs. If I deactivate it Wine works. Any suggestions?
[20:20] <laeg> TwoD: because it stopped my sound issues with vlc, flash etc
[20:20] <jscinoz> I'm trying to use compiz, however when ever i have more than 4 or 5 windows open all the windows are black instead of showing what they should, how can i fix this?
[20:20] <_Vi_> mike12: you might have to use a lighter window manager like fluxbox, Icebox, etc
[20:20] <mike12> how do i switch to that
[20:20] <_Vi_> 'sudo apt-get install fluxbox'  first of all
[20:20] <TwoD> laeg, ok, but not using it has been a much worse pain for me. Only one program at a time etc.
[20:21] <_Vi_> secondly you log out... mike12 , then you'll see a sessions menu pick fluxbox
[20:21] <Mimi> Soooo let me get this clear: In Intrepid, I don't use xorg.conf anymore, right? To get my mouse buttons to work? Online help is SO outdated and it's confusing me
[20:22] <ghostlines> doesn't anyone have a problem with evolution starting up after waking up after suspend?
[20:22] <_Vi_> mike12: mind you fluxbox is pretty stripped by default, but there ways to make menu's and icons and whatnot,
[20:22] <mike12> what is gnome panel
[20:22] <_Vi_> that's the bar above your screen with all the icons and stuff
[20:22] <slashzul> how do you change your canonical landscape to autoupdate ?
[20:23] <laeg> TwoD: you don't have to use one program at a time, use alsa
[20:23] <mike12> o ok is there any way to free up space taken up by cache and things like that
[20:24] <Pici> slashzul: It would probably be best to contact Canonical regarding that, since its a service that they provide.
[20:24] <Chewimal> I can see flash video, but can't hear the sound through firefox. I do have audio with banshee, am I missing something?
[20:24] <_Vi_> mike12: you might like icewm better than fluxbox, it's got a nice menu and kinda sorta mimics Gnome

[20:33] <tyler_d> looking to fix my drive -- when I run ntfslabel /dev/sdb1 it produces an error, wants windows, I don't want to do this?
[20:33] <elad`> How do I search by a file's contents, not its filename? But I need to find out the filename (and path) of the file that contains the pattern.
[20:34] <tyler_d> elad`: in term type grep -i "what im looking for" filename.name
[20:34] <Slart> tyler_d: I'm not sure if there is a checkdisk utility included in ntfs3g.. I don't think so
[20:34] <tyler_d> elad`: the -i gets rid of case sensetivity
[20:35] <tyler_d> Slart: so what are the options??
[20:35] <kattollikisd> Hi, I would like to do something in Gnome... but as I can see, the only one that do that is Xfce, And that is that if I do a right click con the desktop.... Of Xcfe Y can see the menu, There is someway that I can do that on Gnome ( with the right click?) can someone help me out? :S
[20:35] <elad`> "in term type"?!
[20:35] <tyler_d> elad`: press alt-f2 and type gnome-terminal
[20:35] <elad`> I only have the shell.
[20:35] <elad`> People suggested grep before.
[20:35] <tyler_d> elad`: thats the shell (term)
[20:35] <Slart> tyler_d: there might be a "stop being such a rear end and just do what I say"-switch.. or you can boot windows
[20:35] <tyler_d> terminal
[20:36] <elad`> grep -i ?
[20:36] <tyler_d> Slart: don't I wish
[20:36] <Slart> tyler_d: that first option is usually called -force
[20:36] <ldlework> Hi, I am researching the ATI issue with blinking OpenGL applications. I have read like every topic on the issue and I understand that it is a fault of the DRI and the DRI2 will address this issue. Can anyone simply tell me what DRI is so I can find out more about it?
[20:36] <tyler_d> elad`: in your shell - type grep -i "whatimlookingfor" filename.name
[20:36] <tyler_d> !man | elad
[20:36] <elad`> You misunderstand the question. I don't want to search in a file, I want to search FOR the file.
[20:37] <zero__> hello
[20:37] <tyler_d> elad`: sorry my bad
[20:37] <Slart> elad`: locate or find might be useful
[20:37] <tyler_d> elad`: type in shell --> find dir/to/search/from -name nameoffile -print
[20:37] <tyler_d> elad`: alternately as root type updatedb
[20:38] <tyler_d> elad`: then type locate "whatimlookingfor"
[20:38] <_Vi_> elad`: add a '|less' at the end of that locate "whatimlookingfor"
[20:38] <tyler_d> or more
[20:38] <tyler_d> ;)
[20:38] <_Vi_> more sucks

[20:39] <ortsvorsteher> !anyone | elcontador

[20:39] <tyler_d> shift and page up
[20:40] <ldlework> Hi, I am researching the ATI issue with blinking OpenGL applications. I have read like every topic on the issue and I understand that it is a fault of the DRI and the DRI2 will address this issue. Can anyone simply tell me what DRI is so I can find out more about it?
[20:40] <_Vi_> least that's what ive experienced :)
[20:40] <elcontador> I can't install my via hd sound driver on ubuntu 64-bit
[20:40] <tyler_d> _Vi_: shift page up
[20:40] <_Vi_> ah

[20:40] <tyler_d> _Vi_: ;)
[20:40] <Slart> _Vi_: "most" is kind of nice too
[20:40] <elcontador> it complains about something related to the kernel
[20:41] <elcontador> and I tried to  configure the latest
[20:41] <Slart> elcontador: then it's probably one of those.. errors... yup.. that's what it is
[20:41] <elcontador> it didn't work
[20:41] <persei> I got a HD failure, and I've just installed ubuntu on my new hD. but trying to configure it, now each time I type in a terminal "sudo nano a_text_to_edit", I get that message : sudo: unable to resolve host home2" home2 is my computer name). I know i have to make my /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts to match, but how can I do as I can't edit th efile ?
[20:42] <elcontador> anyone with a similar problem?
[20:42] <storrgie> question regarding powertop, when i restart my machine are all the settings that powertop executed gone? it seems like when i restart i have to set everything back up again.

[20:42] <Mimi> persei, pop in a livecd, edit from there. Have you tried that yet
[20:42] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | elcontador
[20:42] <persei> not yet

[20:43] <Slart> elcontador: please put it all on one line
[20:43] <elad`> ?
[20:43] <elcontador> just bought it
[20:43] <elcontador> sorry again
[20:43] <Slart> elad`: locate already searches the entire filesystem
[20:44] <elcontador> I'l try to put it all at once
[20:44] <elad`> How do I only search in the local directory?
[20:44] <Slart> elcontador: do that.. if you end up writing to much you can always use a pastebin
[20:44] <Slart> !paste | elcontador
[20:44] <zero__> Im back again, and still need help, i got bug with my sound bug... i get sound in both speakers and headset at the same moment

[20:48] <ickis> Hi I'm trying to host a domain in my Ubuntu server. Should I need to set up bind9 ? Or just point the domain to my static ip address?
[20:48] <Slart> frostburn: ah.. no.. he was asking when the next version was due
[20:48] <Slart> frostburn: at least that's what I think he was asking about
[20:48] <mcj> help
[20:49] <persei> Mimi: ok, but now, how can I "mount" my system ?
[20:49] <Slart> ickis: pointing the domain to your static ip is all you need afaik.. unless you plan on having subdomains and such
[20:49] <Slart> just ask, mcj. If someone knows the answer they most probably will answer
[20:49] <storrgie> ickis: you will want to know how to do virtual sites in apache
[20:49] <ickis> ok, and what should I put in the domain info
[20:50] <ickis> in the dns section: ns.mydomain.com ?
[20:50] <temppy> ickis: they are correct, if you only have that one server, just point the domain to its IP
[20:50] <Neku> zero__: routers configured right that i know
[20:50] <zero__> what? i dont need anyhelp with internet lol
[20:51] <zero__> i need help with my sound bug...

[20:51] <Slart> ickis: ehm.. I don't really remember.. have you asked your domain registrar?
[20:51] <ickis> ok, but in the domain info I have DNS and ip. What should I put in DNS section?
[20:51] <temppy> ickis: actually, what am I talking about.  I think you do need a dns server.  I use zoneedit.com
[20:51] <Slart> Neku: ok, just make sure your downloading from somewhere close.. so your internet connection is the bottle-neck..
[20:51] <persei> I need to change a file on my system. The only way to do it is to boot from the cd live and change it manually. How can I mount my system from a terminal opened as i run the live cd ?

[20:52] <rbdvalentine> does anyone have experience with ubuntu on a sony vaio lt15 desktop
[20:52] <giacomo_c> ﻿i've been trying to install some murrine themes, but when i go to select them, they just look plain and not like they're supposed to... i have the gtk-murrine engine installed under synaptic also, so i dont know why they won't work
[20:52] <Mimi> persei, don't the drives show on the desktop>

[20:52] <fliegenderfrosch> I know it’s not really Ubuntu-related, but maybe someone can help me anyway. I have this strange problem with the network sockets I’m trying to install. I have created a diagram:http://i40.tinypic.com/16pg77.jpg left is how it should be and right are the things I have tried for finding the error. can someone help me?
[20:52] <Slart> !mount | persei
[20:52] <Neku> Slart: what you mean the servers location cause its usually megaupload
[20:52] <ickis> so I should configure bind9 or use an external dns server right?
[20:52] <Slart> persei: sorry.. that factoid wasn't really useful for you
[20:53] <Mimi> Slart,  WOW that factoid has got nothing to do with "mount" xD
[20:53] <Mimi> Someone better change it
[20:53] <biouser> Connection failed: Connection terminated when playing sound in firefox
[20:53] <persei> I do not need to partition, just to mount my /etc partition
[20:53] <FireFox> I hate the feeling of sound, so yes I quit
[20:53] <biouser> it monitors the sound I should be getting for a while (visually)
[20:53] <Slart> Neku: I mean, if you're downloading a file from the other side of the world from a computer using a scratchy phone line for internet-connection you'll get a very low speed.. but that's because of who is sending the file, not your internet connection
[20:53] <mysteryc> Will ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope run the newest Linux Kernel?
[20:54] <Neku> Slart: ahhh
[20:54] <Slart> !jaunty | mysteryc
[20:54] <Slart> Neku: so you need to download a file from someone with a big big connection.. preferably placed pretty near you (network wise)
[20:55] <Mimi> persei, https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2006-September/094025.html
[20:55] <ickis> so in order to host my own domain I should configure bind9 within the server or use an external dns server, right?
[20:55] <Slart> Mimi: indeed.. there is a !no, <factoid> is bla bla bla bla bla  command you can use on the bot to change factoids.. or at least suggest a replacement

[21:15] <fliegenderfrosch> brandon__: it’s really hard to help you if you don’t give more information. so you want to connect your xbox to the internet. you have a network cable coming from the xbox. how do you connect to the internet with your computer? do you have a router? if you want to connect with several machines at the same time, you need a router
[21:16] <fozze> user___: lol
[21:16] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: maybe graphic is better if you use a xorg.conf and disalbe hotplugger
[21:16] <ik_> yes vlc is the only player that is working
[21:16] <user___> fozze: anyway could i help you with the irc question? :-)
[21:16] <inik> ik_ maybe mplayer can help

[21:16] <ik_> but even rhythmbox has no sound
[21:17] <seanj> hi, can't mute my microphone with sound blaster live card
[21:17] <fozze> user___: sure
[21:17] <ik_> probably touching something in synaptic could help?
[21:17] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: just use the nvidia-xconfig tool, run 'sudo nvidia-xconfig', than edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add     Option         "AutoAddDevices" "false"
[21:18] <zero__> Oh this sucks, need to reinstall ubuntu
[21:18] <ichbinesderelch_> under serverflags
[21:19] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, i got alot of errors. :X
[21:19] <oCean_> ik_: you're not being very clear. You don't have any sound at all?
[21:19] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: errors like?
[21:19] <balzac_> Hello, I'm trying to find the best wireless specialized channel for installing my 3945ABG wireless chip on intrepid
[21:19] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, wait
[21:19] <ik_> no not sound
[21:19] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: post them ina pastebin
[21:20] <ik_> it seems working but it has no sound
[21:20] <balzac_> Should I be looking into ndiswrapper, madwifi or what?
[21:20] <ik_> the only player that works is vlc
[21:21] <ik_> probably I've made some mess installing floola
[21:21] <oCean_> ik_: what do you mean. VLC has sound?
[21:21] <ik_> yes
[21:21] <oCean_> ik_: but nothing else has?
[21:21] <ik_> exactly
[21:22] <dewente> Greeting, fellow I am looking for an addons that help me improve my English skills,  if possible find some that help me out ?
[21:22] <ik_> It is very strange
[21:22] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, http://pastebin.com/d5bbd895b
[21:22] <oCean_> ik_: do you have volume control in panel?
[21:22] <dewente> I am trying to find something that when i put my cursor over a unknown word give me a synonym of it !
[21:22] <seanj> hi, can't mute my microphone with sound blaster live card
[21:22] <ik_> yes already checked
[21:22] <the6step> how do I search for something within unix?
[21:22] <oCean_> the6step: use "locate" command
[21:22] <tyler_d> the6step: define something?
[21:22] <ik_> volume is max
[21:23] <user___> dewente: how would the program know what is unknown to you?
[21:23] <dewente> user___, when i put the cursor over
[21:23] <dewente> user___, right click
[21:23] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: post your /etc/X11/xorg.conf pls
[21:23] <ik_> I think is something in the libraries
[21:24] <dewente> user___, or highlight it and right click
[21:24] <Creeture> Hey all. dvd+rw-mediainfo never tells me the "Media ID" of a disc. I suspect it's because it thinks the media is mounted, even though it's brand new clean DVD-R media. How do I get Ubuntu to leave my drive alone so I can get directly at the hardware?
[21:24] <seanj> hi, can't mute my microphone with sound blaster live card
[21:24] <ik_> but I'm not an expert, so... I don't know what to try
[21:24] <oCean_> ik_: you already toyed around in system > pref > sound ?
[21:25] <ik_> I'll try now
[21:25] <sluxor> I deleted an ext3 partition, is there a way i can recover it?
[21:25] <ik_> what do you suggest to change ocean?
[21:25] <brunner> I just upgraded to Intrepid, and it seemed like that solved all of my audio issues, but now Flash nor Miro have any audio.  The last thing I did was open and close Livestation, and then tried to play a youtube clip.
[21:26] <fearlessdawg> sluxor don't think so - how did u delete it without knowing though?
[21:26] <brunner> I'm running the 64-bit Flash from Adobe, no plugin wrapper
[21:26] <Creeture> sluxor: Have you done anything to the disk since you deleted it?
[21:26] <fozze> so can anyone reccomend an irc daemon?
[21:26] <brunner> Does anyone know what could be causing this, or how I might be able to diagnose it?
[21:26] <oCean_> ik_: try different options. But "Alsa" should work. Then hit test button
[21:26] <purvesh> oCean_: i want 2 know how 2 connect or set pppoe on ubuntu 8.10
[21:26] <seanj> back to windows i guess
[21:26] <user___> fozze: none of the ubuntu prepacked ones suits you?
[21:26] <fliegenderfrosch> brunner: these problems are probably due to pulseaudio, I don’t know the recommended solutions atm, so you might try to google for it
[21:27] <ik_> ok I'll try. for the moment very thanks ocean
[21:27] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, http://pastebin.com/d1d0f1ccd there
[21:27] <brunner> fliegenderfrosch: are these common issues?
[21:27] <oCean_> !pppoe | purvesh
[21:27] <brunner> that is, did something change recently?
[21:27] <frojnd> HEllo there when Im trying to run wine I get message: wine: '/tmp/.wine-1000/server-805-4bc31b' must not be accessible by other users What do I have to do so I can run wine ? Any commentary wellcome.
[21:28] <fliegenderfrosch> brunner: afaik they changed the audio subsystem to pulseaudio starting from intrepid, so there are quite a few problems because of this, mainly with flash and some games
[21:28] <brunner> well Miro doesn't work either, and it doesn't use flash at all
[21:28] <fozze> user___: i'm delving into new territory with ircd, if someone has good experience with a certain package i would like to know which one
[21:28] <fliegenderfrosch> brunner: some time ago the solution was to install libflashsupport, but I’ve read somewhere that this isn’t recommended anymore
[21:29] <zleap1> hi
[21:29] <oCean_> frojnd: I'm no wine expert, but it seems that it's a permission problem on mentioned file
[21:29] <GnomeKing> hi :) I've got Ubuntu 8.10 on my laptop and usbcore recognises when I plug my external mouse in... dmesg doesn't give any errors, yet I can't use the external USB mouse... any clues?
[21:29] <zleap1> can someone try sending an e-mail to zleap@zleap.net please i am not sure if its working
[21:29] <GnomeKing> the dmesg suggests it finds it as a USB HID v1.10 mouse with wheel
[21:29] <fliegenderfrosch> brunner: that’s possible, some applications aren’t configured to use pulseaudio (and some can’t even be configured to use it)
[21:29] <oCean_> GnomeKing: no errors in dmesg, but there are entries that it is found?
[21:29] <lorenzo> hi, when i try to open amule it either freezes opening or it opens very slowly, and in general everything i do within the program is really slow. anyone can help? thanks
[21:29] <frojnd> oCean_: I chmod 777 -R /tm/ but I'm not able to run it...
[21:29] <mneptok> brunner: quit any apps that use sound, then re-launch Miro by itself.
[21:29] <GnomeKing> oCean_, correct, yes - shall I paste the lines to a pastebin?
[21:30] <oCean_> frojnd: that's not a wise thing to do "chmod 777 /tmp"
[21:30] <user___> fozze: what works well most of the time is do a start, try and if things break ask a concrete question (error message)
[21:30] <frojnd> oCean_: 755 than ?
[21:30] <GnomeKing> oCean_: http://pastebin.com/m4871cd87
[21:30] <oCean_> GnomeKing: ok moment
[21:30] <mneptok> frojnd: "must not be accessible"
[21:31] <frojnd> mneptok: oh so too many permissions
[21:31] <oCean_> frojnd: no, you should not mess with general /tmp settings. They're kind of ... particular.
[21:31] <frojnd> mneptok: ok so can u pelase tell me who can and who can't access it :)
[21:32] <oCean_> frojnd: I think that you should do a chmod 700 on that file (or is it a socket?) you mentioned earlier
[21:32] <mneptok> frojnd: your first issue is your now massively-insecure /tmp
[21:32] <oCean_> GnomeKing: well, yes that's the output you want. But no response? :/
[21:33] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, you know what's wrong?
[21:33] <GnomeKing> not a sausage :/ the lil red LED lights up on the mouse... but I move it and nothing happens
[21:33] <fearlessdawg> actualy having a look a ubuntu 8.10 default permissions on /tmp they are in fact 777
[21:33] <brunner> mneptok: I just did that, and there's no audio.  It's playing without audio as I type this and all other audio applications are closed.
[21:33] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: sry overread it, one second
[21:33] <brunner> mneptok: including firefox
[21:33] <ubuntume_> why wont installer let me, ubuntume resize and remove older distro I have here..its wanting to maintain 5% of old one while installing ubuntu on new partition ??
[21:33] <GnomeKing> oCean_, No response from xev either ;) so none of the buttons actually send a message to X
[21:33] <oCean_> fearlessdawg: a chmod -R does a lot more than only the /tmp dir
[21:33] <frojnd> oCean_: I've changed it to chmod 700 -R /tmp/ and now I get: wine: chdir to /tmp/.wine-1000/server-805-4bc31b : Permission denied
[21:33] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, http://pastebin.com/d1d0f1ccd
[21:34] <fearlessdawg> yes i know recurses through sub dirs
[21:34] <frojnd> oCean_: how can I change permission to this file so my user can access it ?
[21:34] <oCean_> fearlessdawg: and than, there should be a sticky bit (t) on the dir.
[21:34] <fearlessdawg> oCean_ whats the 't' ?
[21:34] <oCean_> frojnd: i did not say so
[21:35] <loz> hello all, could anybody help me, i have installed a new wireless card:  Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8185 IEEE 802.11a/b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 20), and since i have installed the signal is so week that i need to put my router right next to it, has any one got a clue how to improve the reception?
[21:35] <lovlexir> Alguien habla español y me ayuda por favor... :(
[21:35] <frojnd> oCean_: u said just for /tmp/.wine-1000/server-805-4bc31b but how about for the rest of /tmp/
[21:35] <guntbert> !es | lovlexir
[21:35] <md22> i think i just found a new hobby
[21:35] <frojnd> oCean_: and still I can't acess wine
[21:35] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: mouse and keyboard may not be configured correctly, what mouse etc are you using?
[21:35] <lovlexir> GRAZIAZ ! ! !
[21:36]  * brunner is going to restart
[21:36] <guntbert> lovlexir: :)
[21:36] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: or the easier way, do a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg do build a xorg.conf
[21:36] <oCean_> fearlessdawg: when set, items inside the directory (with sticky bit) can be renamed or deleted by the owner *only*, even if others have rw access
[21:36] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: and then run sudo nvidia-xconfig again
[21:36] <droopsta915> why doesn't my brasero disc burning have an .iso image option? it has *.raw, *.cue, *.toc, but no .iso?
[21:36] <oCean_> frojnd: well, atm the error has changed from too much permissions to too little permissions right?
[21:36] <fearlessdawg> oCean_ cheers for that :D didn't have a clue what that was for
[21:37] <GnomeKing> oCean_, lsusb also shows the mouse as connected on bus 6, device 2... :) Any suggestions for how I can debug this further?
[21:37] <oCean_> fearlessdawg: the permission thing on unix (and by that on linux) is great! :)
[21:38] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, should i choose yes or no
[21:38] <tr3nd> ?
[21:38] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: what was the question?
[21:38] <fearlessdawg> yeah i understand the basics of permissions - but still to learn them fully
[21:38] <powertool08> I'm on my laptop connected to my desktop at home and running virtualbox, I clicked in the vm and it grabbed the mouse and when at my desktop a "right ctrl" releases it but its not working over vnc. Does anyone know how to send a "right ctrl" signal?
[21:38] <the6step> I just installed PIL via apt-get and I guess it didn't install right and I don't know how to find the package and maybe drag it around to the desired location I guess?
[21:39] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, "Use kernel framebuffer device interface"
[21:39] <oCean_> frojnd: ok. hold on
[21:39] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: yes
[21:40] <_Vi_> the6step: try 'dpkg -l *PIL*' in a terminal (no quote marks)
[21:40] <oCean_> GnomeKing: it's really strange, and atm have not really debug options. Other mouse works?
[21:40] <GnomeKing> oCean_, this usb mouse works on windows and the trackpad always works - but ok, thanks for your help :)
[21:41] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, what does "keyboard variant" means?
[21:41] <jimi_hendrix> hi...where do i get help for jaunty?
[21:41] <guntbert> !jaunty
[21:41] <ubuntume_> id like to suggest that ubuntu add a installer option like fedora has, where it asks you if you want to ' remove all linux partitions' , then it installs itself to whats left...cause my friend brought me this to install and I have no idea what to do now...thank you in case someone hears this  ;)
[21:41] <_Vi_> #ubuntu+1
[21:42] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: something like nodeadkeys, if i'm not completly wrong
[21:42] <mneptok> ubuntume_: IRC is not the place for that. create a blueprint on LP.
[21:42] <psicobra> hi all i am running ubuntu and have compiz-fusion installed and working fine just want to know if there is any additional plug ins available and where to get them
[21:42] <_Vi_> ubuntume_: "use entire disk" is the same thing as that i think anyways
[21:42] <_Vi_> dont quote me on that though
[21:43] <ppice> Good evening everybody, looking for assistance into removing and redoing Grub.  I've recently reinstall ubuntu and it screwed up my Windows BOOTMGR, I have fixed my Windows BOOTMGR but it has removed the Grub...  Thank you in advance...
[21:43] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: ah wrong, try pc105
[21:43] <fearlessdawg> powertool08: have you tried the enter key instead?
[21:43] <wng-> Is there any way to play Blu-Ray disks in ubuntu (including any virtual machines) without breaking the encryption on it?
[21:43] <ubuntume_> mneptok: what is a blueprint..im not a geek
[21:43] <guntbert> !grub | ppi
[21:43] <the6step> Ok I have a question... basically I use python, and I need to install specific things for it.... the easiest way by far is to just aptitude install or apt-get.... the only problem is that it doesn't look like it puts it on my Python Path, which is a problem and I don't know how to remedy it.
[21:43] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, i did
[21:43] <ubuntume_> mneptok: err im a windows user man
[21:43] <AJC_Z0> psicobra: Try installing simple-ccsm - Simple Compizconfig settings manager
[21:43] <mneptok> ubuntume_: it's how feature requests are sent
[21:43] <powertool08> fearlessdawg: No, I'll try it real quick
[21:43] <guntbert> !grub | ppice
[21:43] <ubuntume_> mneptok: ok..so where is this  at ?
[21:43] <psicobra> AJC_Z0, i have all that just want more toys to play with
[21:43] <_Vi_> ubuntume_: wait that would get rid of windows partiions too, you dont have windows on your disk do you?
[21:44] <ubuntume_> _Vi_: yes I have windows 7
[21:44] <LjL> !blueprints | ubuntume_, mneptok
[21:44] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_,  got this error http://pastebin.com/d4cecfd1c now
[21:44] <ubuntume_> ubottu: ok
[21:44] <AJC_Z0> psicobra: This adds a friendlier compiz config menu to the gnome Appearance window
[21:44] <oCean_> frojnd: still there? First of all we have to restore the permissions on /tmp
[21:44] <mneptok> LjL: you don't say ... :P
[21:44] <powertool08> fearlessdawg: No luck. Any other ideas?
[21:44] <oCean_> frojnd: they might be automatically after reboot, but I'm not sure.
[21:44] <_Vi_> ubuntume_: ok dont use "use entire disk" then...just use Gparted Live CD to get rid of the linux partitions
[21:44] <ubuntume_> _Vi_: I need to get rid of another one that was here and install ubuntu, but keep windows basically...thx for replying by the way
[21:44] <_Vi_> ubuntume_: or you could try Parted Magic Live CD
[21:44] <LjL> mneptok: no. in fact, i type.
[21:45] <ubuntume_> _Vi_: I have no , gparted anything
[21:45] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: post your xorg.conf again pls
[21:45] <_Vi_> Gparted has a LIVE CD :)
[21:45] <ubuntume_> _Vi_: im a dumb windows user sorry
[21:45] <ubuntume_> _Vi_: :)
[21:45] <_Vi_> google 'Gparted Live CD'
[21:45] <AJC_Z0> psicobra: More than everything in compiz-fusion-plugins-extra?
[21:45] <psicobra> AJC_Z0, i have it's fine just want more effects
[21:45] <ubuntume_> _Vi_: is it easy enough for a grandma ? ;
[21:45] <ubuntume_> :)
[21:45] <_Vi_> hmmm well its got a GUI :)
[21:46] <psicobra> i have seen a few vids with effects i don't have
[21:46] <Xunie> what the hell is wrong, /dev/js0 isn't there anymore!
[21:46] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, http://pastebin.com/d83f2be4
[21:46] <ubuntume_> _Vi_: ok , my friend sitting here with me says, gui is good.
[21:46] <spook__> hello
[21:46] <spook__> iam newby, lol
[21:46] <mneptok> !ccsm > psicobra
[21:46] <oCean_> frojnd: still there mate?
[21:46] <_Vi_> ubuntume_: the gparted willt ellyou which partition is linux
[21:46] <guntbert> !ask | spook__
[21:46] <fearlessdawg> powertool08: afraid not - have looked at google and nothing - only thing i can think of is that something is stealing the right-ctrl and not passing it to virtualbox. Would suggest changing the hotkey in virtual box to some other combination and see if that works instead to test that theory
[21:46] <_Vi_> it will say some4thing like ext2 ext3 or linux and what not
[21:47] <_Vi_> something*
[21:47] <ubuntume_> _Vi_: isnt there a version of ubunut that will just do this for me like fedora does ?
[21:47] <powertool08> fearlessdawg: Ok, thanks
[21:47] <spook__> ok  ubottu sorry
[21:47] <_Vi_> well yes, you could use Gparted, from that too ubuntume_
[21:47] <ppice> One more... how can I verify that I have installed the 64 version of ubuntu as I might of mixxed up the cd's and I would like to confirm...
[21:47] <SteveHill> Is there an easy way to list what system programs have been added to my system, after one OS, before the upgrade?
[21:47] <frostburn> ppice, from the command line:  uname -a
[21:47] <spook__> 1 line? this chat prog is total new for me...
[21:47] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: http://pastebin.com/m5e4978c4 copy that one into your xorg.conf, modified it a little, it should work :)
[21:48] <ubuntume_> _Vi_: ok..thank you for trying to help but I dunno this sounds too much for aging grandma, maybe another time when ubuntu has more installer options.BYE and thank you kind sirs
[21:48] <spook__> total differend from mirc or something
[21:48] <_Vi_> ubuntume_: and if not there's always the NON gui way of cfdisk or fdisk but you wont like it
[21:48] <_Vi_> you're welcome :)
[21:48] <ppice> Thank you

I can't figure out why I can't connect to my server through the external IP even though the ISP claims they have set up port forwarding. am I missing some key configuration file? I have reset iptables: `# iptables -F && iptables -t nat -F && iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT && iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT && iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT`, so that doesn't seem to be it, and I put sshd in debug mode but I get no log

[21:53] <brunner> my only internet connection is on my phone
[21:54] <toader> oCean_: right track
[21:54] <SteveHill> toader - when you run "route -a", what does your system tell you??
[21:54] <_Vi_> ichbinesderelch_: bout that stuck mouse :)
[21:54] <spook__> is there a dutch channel on this server?
[21:54] <_Vi_> of course
[21:54] <user___> toader: "route"
[21:55] <_Vi_> !english
[21:55] <cdecarlo> I added www-data to the ssl-cert group, do I need to reload www-data's profile for the change to take effect, if so, how do I do that?
[21:55] <ichbinesderelch_> _Vi_: ah taht thing ;) yeah not that much of a trick
[21:55] <guntbert> !nl
[21:55] <_Vi_> ichbinesderelch_: to you maybe :P
[21:55] <spook__> ohhh i see ubottu!
[21:55] <_Vi_> for me its a good 'tip' or 'trick' :)
[21:55] <Ward1983> someone in kvm says ubuntu delivers not-working kernel headers, even though the stock kernel has working ones
[21:55] <brunner> i tried adding network manager manually but the closest thing to it was network monitor, which doesn't display a list of networks
[21:55] <Ward1983> in #kvm i mean
[21:55] <oCean_> verse koffie :)
[21:55] <_Vi_> spook__: ubottu is a bot :)
[21:55] <brunner> someone please help
[21:55] <ichbinesderelch_> _Vi_: well glad to help you ;)
[21:56] <spook__> ok ok, i go try again to connect whit my favorite irc server, and read the f... manuel, lol
[21:56] <BrokenClockwork> hey, why get I thrown into the console (ubuntu@ubuntu) when I started the ubuntu installation on my notebook?
[21:56] <brunner> i don't even have a full irc client
[21:56] <SteveHill> toader - work with us ... we ARE trying to help u.
[21:56] <spook__> and if that not work, i go back to this room, lol
[21:56] <_Vi_> ichbinesderelch_: there's no better way to learn linux than sitting in here all day, it's like a live wikipedia 24/7 :)
[21:56] <nobu> #fpf
[21:56] <racerx> do I need a to use ubuntu 64 bit to make use of my 4 gig of ram?
[21:57] <spook__> i remember in past on unix u has x-bitch to chat
[21:57] <oCean_> brunner: I think "notification area" is what you need? Not sure what you are looking for..
[21:57] <spook__> this program xchat i dont know and i see not much to install a irc server to connect
[21:57] <mneptok> racerx: you need the x86_64 version or a PAE server kernel on i386
[21:57] <cdecarlo> racerx: I think so, I don't think that 4 gigs can be addressed with 32bits ...
[21:57] <oCean_> spook__: bitchx :)
[21:57] <ichbinesderelch_> _Vi_: that is kinda true ^^ but best learning is just using linux everday
[21:57] <_Vi_> irssi
[21:58] <user___> SteveHill: is "route -a" a valid command on your system?
[21:58] <spook__> yep oCean, but that was long time ago
[21:58] <_Vi_> that too of course ichbinesderelch_ :)
[21:58] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, how do i restart x :p
[21:58] <oCean_> spook__: you connected to this channel, so what's the problem connecting other channels?
[21:58] <brunner> ocean: i already have a notification area. network mintor is not showing up after i upgraded to the latest version of ubuntu
[21:58] <frostburn> cdavis, it can, that's what PAE is for
[21:58] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: ctrl+alt+backspace
[21:58] <mneptok> tr3nd: ctl-alt-backspace
[21:58] <brunner> and so now i'm stuck without a connection on my laptop
[21:59] <spook__> but ok, i shall try again if i can connct whit chaticity.irc.nl
[21:59] <racerx> I have installed x64 but was wondering about switching back to 32. I just wanted to know if 32 will make full use of all 4 gig of ram.
[21:59] <lorenzo> how come when i launch amule it tells me that there is an open instance running but killall wont kill any amule process? I am confused
[21:59] <oCean_> spook__: still not sure what your problem is??
[21:59] <frostburn> cdecarlo, you can, that's what PAE is for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension
[21:59] <mneptok> racerx: with a PAE capable kernel from the server branch, yes
[21:59] <brunner> racerx: you can't switch back without for.matting
[21:59] <user___> racerx: no
[21:59] <_Vi_> spook__: are you wanting to be on two servers at the same time? most irc clients can do that...
[22:00] <sandra> ups
[22:00] <racerx> I understand i would have to reformat everything.
[22:00] <spook__> hi ocean, the problem is, i cannot login at the irc servers i use in windows under mirc
[22:00] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, didnt work, my computer made a "beep"
[22:00] <racerx> thanks guys.
[22:00] <SteveHill> User__ and toader:  I apologize.  To many years working in other unices.  "route" by itself will show the table, and gateway, if you have one configured.
[22:00] <spook__> i dont know how i must install it under Xchat, i see not much possibilies
[22:00] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: uhm, than simply log your user out and in again
[22:00] <brunner> what's that command line tool for connecting to wpa networks?
[22:01] <brunner> suplicant or something
[22:01] <user___> SteveHill: dont worry, were almost expecting .. ;-)
[22:01] <mneptok> user___: i386 can use >4GB if PAE is enabled in the kernel
[22:01] <_Vi_> spook__: with xchat you can do /newserver <server one goes here>  then do it again /newserver <server 2 goes here>
[22:01] <FireFox> user___: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension
[22:01] <user___> mneptok: i know, but wouldnt that be something out of scope for a regular user?
[22:01] <gareth__> hey peeps
[22:01] <oCean_> spook__: connecting to a server is not "installing" is it?

[22:03] <mneptok> AlabamaHit: do not paste to the channel again. thanks.
[22:03] <spook__> in mirc then i can connect

[22:04] <AlabamaHit> http://pastebin.com/m6b96ca45
[22:04] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, i think my keyboard is american now or something
[22:04] <oCean_> brunner: start "gnome-control-center" and there is your way to the "network configuration" (if that's what you're looking for)
[22:04] <gareth__> can anyone help with a wireless connection issue?
[22:04] <spook__> and i like linux verry much for newbie, lol,
[22:04] <droopsta915> gareth: whats the prob
[22:04] <spook__> dont wanna go back to win
[22:04] <SteveHill> oCean: Yep, it does.
[22:05] <gareth__> hey thx, I can't connect to my home wireless
[22:05] <oCean_> spook__: when you are talking to anyone in particular, please use there nick to start your line. Type the first 2 letters of the nick and hit <tab>
[22:05] <mneptok> gareth__: what type of encryption?
[22:05] <gareth__> it can't see my neighbors wifi but not mine
[22:05] <spook__> thanks for the tip ocean
[22:05] <gareth__> no encryption at the moment
[22:05] <mneptok> gareth__: is your AP broadcasting its SSID?
[22:06] <SteveHill> oCean_: Neat truck... 'cept I needed 3 for yours.
[22:06] <biouser> I can't start a terminal, my last one crashed
[22:06] <droopsta915> gareth: go to system/administrator/hardware drivers
[22:06] <gareth__> how do i find SSID
[22:06] <biouser> I have no reboot button in jaunty my desktop is screwy right now
[22:06] <biouser> I need to reboot
[22:06] <spook__> ah if i press tab, things repeat!!!
[22:06] <biouser> how can I reboot?
[22:06] <mneptok> gareth__: in the configuration of the AP
[22:06] <andrewfree> Whats the command to disable firewall>
[22:06] <Jado> hi, i need some help : if i choose the 640x480 resolution (xrandr --size 640x480 or nvidia-settings), the desktop does not appear entirely on my screen and i can't see the bottom part of it. With other resolutoins, such as 800x600 or 1280x800, i can see all the desktop and not only a part
[22:06] <_Vi_> spook__: tab works in terminal too :)
[22:06] <guntbert> !jaunty | biouser
[22:06] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, i think my keyboard is american now or something -- do you know how to fix this?
[22:06] <droopsta915> gareth: make sure your proprietary drivers are in use.
[22:06] <_Vi_> !tab
[22:06] <gareth__> sorry wots ap?:-)
[22:07] <Slart> andrewfree: ufw disable.. why do you want to disable it?
[22:07] <mneptok> gareth__: access point
[22:07] <gareth__> ok
[22:07] <brunner> ocean: unlike the hardy version, the network connections dialog goes not give me the option to connect to a specific wireless network
[22:07] <SteveHill> Is there a simple way to list all of the add-on packages that I've added after a release, so I know what I have to do after upgrading??
[22:07] <mneptok> gareth__: is the wireless access point configured to broadcast its SSID?
[22:07] <Slart> andrewfree: unless you've activated it it is probably already disabled
[22:07] <spook__> terminal, ohh that i must learn yet, last week i do some things in terminal under root, pfff
[22:07] <gareth__> hold on
[22:07] <_Vi_> !aptoncd
[22:07] <spook__> can install linux again, hehehe
[22:07] <_Vi_> SteveHill: read ubottu last factoid there, i meant that to go to you but i pressed enter too fast
[22:08] <spook__> iam carefull, under root
[22:08] <spook__> ;-)
[22:08] <spook__> and the terminal
[22:08] <BrokenClockwork> I cannot install ubuntu when I try the live-cd modus or the normal installation I end on the bash with ubuntu@ubuntu, having no idea what to do
[22:08] <oCean_> SteveHill: you might want to set "nick completion" in Settings > Prefences > Input box to "last-spoke-order". That makes life even easier
[22:08] <EagleScreen> BrokenClockwork try to fix x server or use alternate CD installation
[22:09] <CyberGabber> andrewfree: Isn't that: ufw enable ?
[22:09] <BrokenClockwork> fix x server?
[22:09] <spook__> i try to install ubunto on pc whit 256 mb memory, that also not work
[22:09] <CyberGabber> andrewfree: Isn't that: ufw disable ?
[22:09] <oCean_> spook__: or get a cup of coffee first and relax :)
[22:09] <andrewfree> CyberGabber: what about it?
[22:09] <EagleScreen> yes, in the command promt, run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg", and later "startx"
[22:09] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: is the flickering gone?
[22:09] <spook__> ok, but from coffe u dont get relax......
[22:10] <_Vi_> i was gonna say that same thing
[22:10] <_Vi_> lol
[22:10] <brunner> ocean_: i added my network setting there, but  there's no way to force it to connect and it's not connecting on its own.
[22:10] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, no, but i think my keyboard is american now
[22:10] <gareth__> mneptok_ i can't remember? i set up the wireless card a long time ago for my mac (which I'm using now) but I want to get wifi access on my ubuntu box
[22:10] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: if nothing turned better just remove the xorg.conf, that wans't the solution
[22:10] <EagleScreen> i dont know if now is possible to specify xorg to use a determinate graphic driver as like as "ati" "nv", "sis" etc..
[22:10] <spook__> i go read the ... manuel and see if i can go to my fav irc servers
[22:10] <brunner> ocean_: that's my whole problem
[22:10] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: and logout/login again, everything will be like before
[22:10] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, i must have backup of the xorg.conf_
[22:11] <tr3nd> ?
[22:11] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: you can keep it if you want to
[22:11] <oCean_> spook__: you see my pm? Probably started another tab on your left hand (of xchat window)
[22:11] <mneptok> gareth__: so what you are saying is "i have no idea how the device that provides wireless connectivity is configured. help me connect to it!"
[22:11] <mneptok> gareth__: impossible.
[22:11] <brunner> alright, i give yp
[22:11] <oCean_> brunner: sorry, i thought you where looking for this tool.
[22:11] <mneptok> gareth__: it's your access point. you configurted it. you set a password. you set the parameters. if you don;t know what they are, we can't help.
[22:11] <gareth__> i guess that's what I'm asking
[22:11] <droopsta915> i have a brasero-0.9.1 file. how do I install it?
[22:12] <brunner> ocean_: nah, i had already messed with it before i came here
[22:12] <guntbert> gareth__: AP usually have a web interface, you would need a wired connection
[22:12] <CyberGabber> andrewfree: You want to disable firewall?
[22:12] <FireFox> I have a Wacom Volito II, can I use this in GIMP and/or in ArtRage running onder Wine?
[22:12] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, what i meant was that if i delete the xorg.conf -- i must have a backup file? or will it automatically replace the old one?
[22:13] <andrewfree> CyberGabber: nvm it didnt fix the probe-lm
[22:13] <brunner> ocean_: it just doesn't have an option to force a wireless connection anymore
[22:13] <gareth__> yes I'm trying to remember the ip address to get to it from machine
[22:13] <Intelli> My wireless internet worked perfectly in Dapper Drake, now it barely works at all in Hardy Heron. What gives and how can I fix this problem?
[22:13] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: the trick is, there was no old one, the new xorg works without a xorg.conf
[22:13] <oCean_> brunner: I was pondering about that.. it seems that way
[22:13] <droopsta915> i have a brasero-0.9.1 file. how do I install it?
[22:13] <Slart> droopsta915: usually you install brasero from the repos.. but I suppose that didn't work out for you?
[22:13] <AlabamaHit> Getting this error when trying to Share a folder. http://pastebin.com/m6b96ca45
[22:13] <brunner> ocean_: so how can i connect?
[22:14] <Slart> droopsta915: where did you get the file?
[22:14] <luke_> What do I enter into Terminal to see what wireless adapter I have?
[22:14] <oCean_> brunner: what does "iwconfig" say?
[22:14] <brunner> luke lspci
[22:15] <brunner> ocean: the adaptor is still there as wlan0
[22:15] <gareth__> mneptok_ you've pointed me in the right direction for now - I'll try and get to the ap webpage - many thx!!!!!
[22:15] <brunner> luke unless its usb, then use lsusb
[22:15] <oCean_> brunner: and what does "ifup wlan0" do?
[22:15] <droopsta915> slart: I got it from icewalkers.com. Its a tar.gz. I already extracted it, but I dont know what to do?
[22:16] <droopsta915> slart: MY repos dont have the latest version
[22:16] <luis08> hi everyone! I've connected my ubuntu laptop to my windows vista desktop using a crossover network cable. In ubuntu, under "Network", I can see my windows computer, but inside it there's nothing... I'm not sure what's going on, and got no idea where to start. please, help! thanks in advance
[22:16] <luke_> So how do I download the drivers for my wireless network with my adapter?
[22:16] <Slart> droopsta915: before we continue with this.. is there some special reason you don't want to use the one in the repos?
[22:16] <luke_> If I can't connect to my internet?
[22:16] <brunner> ocean Ignoring unknown interface wlan0=wlan0.
[22:16] <guntbert> AlabamaHit: I'm not sure but I think you should pastebin your  /etc/samba/smb.conf  too
[22:16] <SteveHill> ubottu & oCean:  Thanks for the aptoncd tip!
[22:16] <_Vi_> !backports | droopsta915 you need backports for newer brasero...
[22:17] <luke_> brunner?
[22:17] <Jeffhare> hi
[22:17] <fuzzymonk> Is there a way to supress/skip the dpkg-reconfigure when running apt-get?  When I install "ldap-auth-client" it takes me through a wizard, but I just want to copy the files in place.
[22:17] <FireFox_> I have a Wacom Volito II, can I use this in GIMP and/or in ArtRage running onder Wine?
[22:17] <brunner> luke sorry, i'm on a mobile phone and your questions are scrolling too fast
[22:17] <alkamid> hello
[22:17] <luke_> Guys how do I coonnect to my wireless network
[22:17] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, I cannot enable desktop effects now :/
[22:17] <droopsta915> slart: I'm trying to make an iso image, but brasero only shows me .cue, .raw, and .toc
[22:18] <_Vi_> droopsta915: im telling you just today i enabled backports, and brasero, was like the #1 thing it wanted to update
[22:18] <brunner> luke: you'll likely have better luck reading online rather than asking here
[22:18] <AlabamaHit> http://pastebin.com/m4d539ad9
[22:18] <droopsta915> vi:just did it thanks
[22:18] <Intelli> My wireless internet worked perfectly in Dapper Drake, now it barely works at all in Hardy Heron. What gives and how can I fix this problem?
[22:18] <_Vi_> :)
[22:18] <Slart> droopsta915: you want to create an iso from an existing cd/dvd?
[22:19] <droopsta915> slart: yes
[22:19] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: except for the desktop effects, everything is workign correctly?
[22:19] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, yes, but there is still flickering in vlc player when i watch movies
[22:19] <mrwes> Vi: I didn't see a backport update for Barsero
[22:20] <_Vi_> mrwes: that's odd, it updated mine, of course mine was very old
[22:20] <Slart> droopsta915: are you using intrepid?
[22:20] <brunner> if anyone can help please email chris.brunner@gmail.com. i have to get off my irc client so i can use google since i'm stuck using a mobile device
[22:20] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: can't think of any solution right now sry, maybe someone else can help better
[22:20] <_Vi_> mrwes: so maybe you'rs was already fairly newish
[22:20] <mrwes> VI: what version of Barsero do you have?
[22:20] <droopsta915> slart: no, 8.04
[22:20] <Intelli> My wireless worked perfectly before I decided to update.
[22:20] <_Vi_> mrwes: backports will not update things to the very newest version
[22:20] <_Vi_> let me check
[22:20] <mrwes> k
[22:20] <FireFox_> I have a Wacom Volito II, can I use this in GIMP and/or in ArtRage running onder Wine?
[22:21] <_Vi_> mrwes: 0.7.1
[22:21] <droopsta915> what are backport updates for?
[22:21] <_Vi_> mrwes: keep in mind im on 8.04
[22:21] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, the hardware drivers are also deactivated
[22:21] <Slart> !backports | droopsta915
[22:21] <alkamid> I have a strange problem with Tomboy: if I set it up to start with Ubuntu (8.10), it opens in a new window and when I click "close" it closes instead of minimizing. When I start Tomboy normally from the menu, it works fine (minimize on close). I want it to start on startup IN TRAY. Is it possible? (it used to be, but I don't know what happened)
[22:21] <PovAddict> either compiz or my graphics driver has a bug with privacy implications
[22:21] <Berzerker> Got a MightyMouse connected with bluetooth, but I can't scroll
[22:22] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: what "hardeware drivers"?
[22:22] <Berzerker> everything else works fine
[22:22] <Slart> droopsta915: let me check how brasero looks in hardy.. I'll be back in a minute
[22:22] <PovAddict> when I use the Expo feature in compiz, with mipmapping on, sometimes its low-res textures get corrupted
[22:22] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, the propriety drivers ubuntu recommended
[22:22] <manu__> toc toc
[22:22] <PovAddict> with chunks of pictures *another user* was browsing on this machine
[22:22] <manu__> c'è nessuno
[22:22] <tr3nd> ichbinesderelch_, for my gfx card
[22:22] <_Vi_> !it
[22:22] <ichbinesderelch_> tr3nd: easiest thing, just remove and reinstall them, or maybe rebooting will solve it too
[22:22] <Jack_Sparrow> !it > manu__
[22:23] <FireFox_> I have a Wacom Volito II, can I use this in GIMP and/or in ArtRage running onder Wine?
[22:23] <mrwes> VI: ahh..ok, I'm running 0.8.2, but I'm on Intrepid
[22:23] <_Vi_> yeah that makes a huge difference :)
[22:23] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardware > FireFox_
[22:23] <droopsta915> from what i read, backports are recommended.
[22:23] <guntbert> AlabamaHit: ok, I only see: there must be something, where your smbd is told to get its config from "--parameter-name=usershare allow guests", but I don't know where that might be
[22:23] <Slart> droopsta915: do you still have brasero installed?
[22:23] <jeeves_Moss> does anyone know how to get AWStats to combine all of the HTTP log files from a server (many virtual hosts) into one report without disturbing all of the separated logs??
[22:23] <mrwes> VI: actually I'd like to use Brasero as my default burner, but I've had much better luck with K3b
[22:23] <droopsta915> slart: yes
[22:23] <_Vi_> ive never used brasero, i always use k3b
[22:23] <mrwes> yah
[22:24] <giacomo_c> some of the murrine themes i've installed don't work... i have the murrine engine installed and certain murrine themes work, but most don't... what am i doing wrong?
[22:24] <mrwes> VI: unfortunately you have to bring in all those extra KDE libs
[22:24] <savvas> jeeves_Moss: define "disturbing".. an example?
[22:24] <Slart> droopsta915: if you chose disk copy, and select to write to "file image".. click the properties button.. you can't select iso there?
[22:24] <_Vi_> yeah sacrifices mrwes :)
[22:25] <FireFox_> thx
[22:25] <bonkit> When I installed ubuntu via cdrom it was hardy version, is automatically upgraded to ibex via the update icon in the top panel (gnome)?
[22:25] <mucku> yay
[22:25] <Wolverin3> hi guys i have this problem: when im listen musick and hold mouse up from mp3 icon and this play the sound on my mp3player mute / and cant get sound again, any1 help me please?
[22:25] <mrwes> VI: 0.8.4 is the lastest stable
[22:25] <droopsta915> slart:I tried that, I guess I cant create .iso images out of audio cd. thank for the help.
[22:25] <jeeves_Moss> savvas, since each virtual server has the logs stored in the v-server's home directories, each v-server has it's own stats as well.  I just want to make sure that I can see ALL of the traffic going through the server on a master report
[22:25] <PovAddict> droopsta915: strange, you should be able to...
[22:26] <_Vi_> mrwes: lol then my brasero is antique :)
[22:26] <mrwes> VI: but 0.8.2 is the latest stable for GNOME
[22:26] <Berzerker> Why doesn't AWN obey the settings I put in the preferences?
[22:26] <Berzerker> such as "maximized windows don't go below AWN"
[22:26] <Berzerker> and the like
[22:26] <enovativ> i just tried to install pspvc via a install.sh file, and i got an error : Error 127
[22:27] <enovativ> -e \E[01;31mERROR during compilation or installation of X264
[22:27] <mrwes> VI: I only run Intrepid on my laptop, I get LTS versions on my desktop
[22:27] <enovativ> what does this error mean ?
[22:27] <_Vi_> dont get me going about intrepid :P
[22:27] <mrwes> that way I get to play round with the newest versions
[22:27] <Slart> droopsta915: nope.. I read that somewhere too.. you're welcome
[22:27] <brunoqc> when creating a package, what is the difference between ubuntu1 and ubuntu0 ?
[22:27] <mrwes> VI: I've had good luck with it
[22:27] <_Vi_> must be nice
[22:27] <_Vi_> :)
[22:27] <mrwes> heh
[22:27] <mucku> I have a question: Launchers in Ubuntu for JAVA programs for example ImageJ. Is there a simple way? All if found is making a script file etc.. which sounds a bit complicated...
[22:27] <mrwes> VI: OTB on everything on a Dell D600
[22:27] <enovativ> i also install ffmpeg using : http://wiki.ubuntu.com/ffmpeg
[22:28] <PovAddict> droopsta915: ah no you can't
[22:28] <PovAddict> droopsta915: "an ISO is created by copying an entire disc, from sector 0 to the end, into a file. Because the image file contains "cooked" 2048-byte sectors and nothing else, it isn't possible to store anything but a single data track in this fashion. Audio tracks, mixed-mode discs, CD+G, multisession, and other fancy formats can't be represented."
[22:28] <_Vi_> Dell 2400 here ..sorry for the OT guys, im shutting up now :)
[22:28] <[FRSK]KRS> anyone using Freeguide??   (tvprogram with time)
[22:28] <enovativ> has anyone ever used pspvc ?
[22:28] <streenz> whats a good GUI front end for rsync?
[22:28] <_Vi_> streenz: grsync
[22:28] <savvas> jeeves_Moss: I don't know how the structure of each log file is, but you can do it with either perl or bash (using a for i in * loop and cat command)
[22:28] <Slart> !anyone | [FRSK]KRS, enovativ
[22:29] <streenz> _Vi_, k thanks ill check it out
[22:29] <_Vi_> Ubuntu has a GUI for everything, fear not :)
[22:29] <mrwes> streenz: what file system are you using it with?
[22:29] <droopsta915> PovAddict: I Updated and now I only get, .raw file option
[22:29] <mrwes> streezn: cuz with FAT32, it doesn't do smart update/copy, it'll copy the entire directory everytime
[22:30] <savvas> jeeves_Moss: if you want to merge all the files together (one under the other), you can simply use the cat command to concatenate them
[22:30] <streenz> mrwes, everything is ext3
[22:30] <horstle> n8
[22:30] <mrwes> streenz: then it should work well
[22:30] <droopsta915> Can I pick certain mp3 files and create an iso?
[22:30] <Slart> droopsta915: yes.. take a look at the "create audio cd" option
[22:31] <jeeves_Moss> savvas, ok, thanks, I'll have a look
[22:31] <droopsta915> Slart:thanks i'll stop bothering u now, LoL
[22:31] <Slart> droopsta915: no worries.. if I didn't want to be bothered I wouldn't be here in this channel
[22:31] <gasto> ubuntu sucks
[22:32] <mucku> :D
[22:32] <Bodsda> bye
[22:32] <mucku> wrong channel dude
[22:32] <mrwes> heh
[22:32] <mrwes> sucks what?
[22:32] <Slart> gasto: yes, we all hate it.. do you have a question about it?
[22:32] <gasto> I can´t install driver for Nvidia graphics card
[22:32] <_Vi_> theres a million distros gasto , knock yourself out
[22:32] <mucku> how about envyNG?
[22:33] <gasto> OK
[22:33] <gasto> sorry
[22:33] <Slart> gasto: noone here is interested in playing 20 questions with you.. if you don't give us details you'll never get help
[22:33] <_Vi_> !away > burkZzZ
[22:33] <burkZzZ> Using /anick, so not exactly targeting ubuntu. ;)
[22:34] <Mimi> I use iwl3945 , is there a way i can go back to ipw one?
[22:34] <mar77i> hi... has somebody got the time explaining to me what my options are on installing gtk+ / glide-3 bindings for python2.6 (installed from source)?
[22:34] <mucku> How do i make a launcher in Ubunut for a *.jar???
[22:34] <corinth> I was installing VirtualBox 2.1 when my connection to my wireless network was lost for some reason. After that, and since rebooting, I can't see any wireless networks. Help?
[22:34] <purvesh> ubottu:do u know how 2 change grub 2 boot my windows os on ubuntu8.10
[22:34] <Slart> mucku: how do you start a jar file from the terminal?
[22:34] <gasto> Ubuntu includes Python and GIMP, so that more than compensates, :)
[22:34] <mrwes> mucku: jar /path/to/jar/file
[22:34] <Drknezzz> mucku: java /path/to/the/jar
[22:35] <Drknezzz> lol mrwes
[22:35] <mrwes> I think jar will do it too
[22:35] <mrwes> :)
[22:35] <mucku> i tried that but it didn't work but will try again
[22:35] <PovAddict> both wrong
[22:35] <Slart> purvesh: the word you're looking for is "to".. it's only one more letter.. and about +30 in percieved IQ.. try it =)
[22:35] <PovAddict> java -jar /path/to/the/jar
[22:35] <mrwes> ahh
[22:35] <mrwes> right java -jar
[22:35] <helpmeplease> My wireless is working at the moment, but it probably won't for long. It used to work perfectly in Dapper Drake, now it barely works at all in Hardy Heron. Can someone help me get it working good again?
[22:35] <mrwes> sits back down
[22:36]  * Bodsda is loving Slart's slightly dry humour tonight
[22:36] <mar77i> are there gtk+ and glide-3 bindings for python 2.6 on the repos?
[22:37] <mucku> so it should be "java -jar /home/mucku/ImageJ ij.jar" ?
[22:37] <Slart> Bodsda: slightly?  =)
[22:37] <Bodsda> :)
[22:37] <AndreasMadrid> hi!
[22:37] <PovAddict> yes mucku
[22:37] <The_Rebel> how do i get Ubuntu/gnome-volume-manager to mount my partitions automatically (on boot or otherwise)???
[22:37] <inteell> I am also having trouble with the X11 server. I am using an RCA big screen TV as a monitor, but I can't reconfigure the X11 server for some reason to get a better resolution, and I don't think my legacy drivers for my TNT2 card are working. I had this same problem with Hardy on my other computer.
[22:37] <mar77i> or javaws ?
[22:37] <PovAddict> mucku: wait, the .jar has a space on its name? then you need quotes around the path
[22:37] <mucku> doubleclicking on the launcher under applications doesn't do anything
[22:38] <mucku> webstart?
[22:38] <Slart> The_Rebel: if you add the drives to the file /etc/fstab they will be mounted on boot
[22:38] <Slart> !fstab | The_Rebel
[22:38] <The_Rebel> no
[22:38] <The_Rebel> without using fstab
[22:38] <Bodsda> huh?
[22:38] <The_Rebel> i want it to be dynamic
[22:38] <AndreasMadrid> can anybody tell me how to correctly install the correct drivers for my sound card? I can hear sounds but i can't use the microphone
[22:38] <The_Rebel> fstab is not dynamic
[22:38] <The_Rebel> i want a hal/gnome-volume-manager solution
[22:38] <Bodsda> !enter | The_Rebel
[22:39] <Slart> The_Rebel: oh.. I don't think gnome-volume-manager does that.. doesn't it just mount it when it's needed? never really played with it
[22:39] <topsub> Hey guys, I have 2 hard drives 74gb with windows 750gig w/ ubuntu, I have a 3rd hard drive that use to work with my windows but after i installed ubuntu when i plug it in and try to boot i get "error 17" after it says grub loading. Any ideas?
[22:39] <gasto> What is the easy way of reinstalling Ubuntu, or reestablishing it as it was initially, at the very beginning of installation
[22:39] <gasto> ?
[22:39] <Drknezzz> lol
[22:39] <alkamid> I have a strange problem with Tomboy: if I set it up to start with Ubuntu (8.10), it opens in a new window and when I click "close" it closes instead of minimizing. When I start Tomboy normally from the menu, it works fine (minimize on close). I want it to start on startup IN TRAY. Is it possible? (it used to be, but I don't know what happened)
[22:39] <Bodsda> gasto, backups
[22:39] <The_Rebel> */etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi may be of interest but i'm not sure what to edit
[22:39] <Slart> gasto: a reinstall is the only way afaik.. it's surely the easiest anyway
[22:40] <gonewestcoast> topsub: http://www.letmegooglethatforyou.com/?q=grub+error+17
[22:40] <gasto> OK, Slart, so you mean to install from CD
[22:40] <Slart> gasto: yes
[22:40] <gasto> or is there a reinstall option?
[22:40] <Slart> gasto: I've never seen a "reinstall from the harddrive" option anywhere
[22:40] <jthomas> nice idea tho... keep 700mb set aside for that
[22:41] <The_Rebel> my partitions are detected during bootup but i have to manually mount them through gnome when i want to use them
[22:41] <Slart> jthomas: yup.. perhaps something for brainstorm
[22:41] <mrwes> You you remaster a CD in Ubunut?
[22:41] <Dante123> hi all, upgraded 8.04 to 8.10 and all went fairly well, except when I use teamspeak other players complain that the audio cuts in and out or that there seem to be mic problems.  Any suggestions?
[22:41] <bead123> can someone help me with creating a symlink for my website to show up in home/bead2/public_html
[22:41] <mrwes> er Ubuntu even
[22:41] <The_Rebel> the problem is some apps need to access content on those partitions and i forgot to manually mount the partitions
[22:41] <enovativ> can anyone help me with pspvc
[22:41] <The_Rebel> so having it done automatically would be fantastic
[22:41] <Slart> The_Rebel: but.. cd's and dvd's are automounted as soon as they are inserted.. perhaps there is a setting somewhere..
[22:42] <Slart> The_Rebel: if not for gnome-volume-manager perhaps for HAL..
[22:42] <AndreasMadrid> can anybody tell me how to correctly install the correct drivers for my sound card? I can hear sounds but i can't use the microphone
[22:42] <mucku> is there a less crowded channel for ubuntu? Maybe german?
[22:42] <ortsvorsteher> !anyone | AndreasMadrid

[22:43] <Some_ux> how do i discover which machines were given dhcp leases on my network ?
[22:43] <Wicked> hmm ok...everyone once in a while out of no where my computer will beep at me..like the system beep...just one short beep and thats it...i dont see anything obvious causing this beep..nothing lit up in the systray....nothing goign terribly wrong in dmesg....what could be causing this? and should i worry?
[22:43] <gonewestcoast> Some_ux: Check the dhcp.leases file
[22:43] <SlimeyPete> look at your router's web interface, Some_ux
[22:43] <Slart> Some_ux: there is a file somewhere.. in a weird place.. /usr/lib/dhcpd/dhcp.leases or something like that
[22:43] <SlimeyPete> or if your ubuntu box is your dhcp server... yeah, do that ^^
[22:44] <Some_ux> SlimeyPete: The ubuntu box is the router :)
[22:44] <mrwes> Jack_Sparrow: can I remaster a CD in Ubuntu?
[22:44] <Slart> Some_ux: almost.. /var/lib/dhcp3/dhcp.leases     man dhcp.leases for more info
[22:45] <Jack_Sparrow> gasto, If you create a sep /home it makes reinstalls a breeze
[22:45] <Some_ux> Slart: I am using dnsmasq
[22:45] <Mimi> Hi can I use ipw instead of iwl (wifi driver) . ipw was perfect, iwl is just s***y
[22:45] <Jack_Sparrow> !home
[22:45] <Slart> Some_ux: I would be very surprised if it didn't create a similar file somewhere... but it has to be in the man pages
[22:46] <mrwes> !remaster
[22:46] <mrwes> der ya go!
[22:46] <Berzerker> Ubuntu mightymouse connected with bluetooth, but I can't scroll
[22:46] <bead123> can someone help me with creating a symlink for my website to show up in home/bead2/public_html
[22:46] <ensay> Mimi-> no one going to stop you, go ahead and use it, let us know how it went
[22:46] <Mimi> Hi can I use ipw instead of iwl (wifi driver) . ipw was perfect, iwl is just s***y (my wifi keeps dropiing, SEE!?!?) I can post but then I can read nothing
[22:46] <gasto> Jack_sparrow, I actually haven´t done anything significant in my Ubuntu installation, so there is no real tragedy after reinstalling Ubuntu
[22:47] <Jack_Sparrow> gasto, then I strongly suggest you add /home partition
[22:47] <Slart> Some_ux: apparently the file is still called dhcp.leases.. check /var/dhcp.leases
[22:47] <Berzerker> Ubuntu mightymouse connected with bluetooth, but I can't scroll
[22:47] <ortsvorsteher> bead123: from where to where?
[22:47] <mrwes> Jack_Sparrow: thanks
[22:47] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[22:47] <Some_ux> Slart: Thanks
[22:47] <ensay> Some_ux -> whats the issue?
[22:48] <Jack_Sparrow> mrwes, I am trying to remember the other-better tool
[22:48] <_Vi_> window 3
[22:48] <_Vi_> oops
[22:48] <Slart> Some_ux: you're welcome
[22:49] <bead123> ortsvorsteher: i need to make my website show up in /home/bosco/public_html
[22:49] <Some_ux> ensay: I wish to discover the network which dnsmasq provides (The ubuntu box is the router/NAT/Dhcp server/WinS server ... etc)
[22:49] <Berzerker> Ubuntu mightymouse connected with bluetooth, but I can't scroll
[22:50] <gasto> if I mention Windows 7, nobody gets mad?
[22:50] <ortsvorsteher> bead123: and you want to create a symbolic link? cd to your aim directory. type there ln -s <from_file> <aim>
[22:50] <AndreasMadrid> how can i correctly install the correct drivers for my sound card? I can hear sounds but i can't use the microphone
[22:50] <ensay> Some_ux -> what do you mean discover the network? dnsmasq  masquerade(nat) your existing ip's
[22:50] <PovAddict> gasto: Berzerker repeating himself every 2 minutes is making me more mad than Windows 7 could, so... go ahead
[22:50] <Shinzou> Has anyone on here used Pcsx2?
[22:50] <Slart> gasto: nope.. we'll just point to #ubuntu-offtopic and say "go there"
[22:50] <Vinceman> what's wrong if while transferring a webcam image you get a striped image slightly diagonal 13:1 ?
[22:50] <Some_ux> ensay: Discover which computers are using dnsmasq to get their ip's
[22:50] <Slart> gasto: unless you somehow turn it into an ubuntu question =)
[22:51] <ensay> Some_ux -> ah okay, dnsmasq runs a dhcp server? i forget about this part
[22:51] <Slart> Vinceman: wrong imagesize? ie you think it's 400 pixels wide when it really is 380 pixels wide?
[22:51] <bead123> ortsvorsteher: i need to be able to access /home/bead2/public_html/index.html file so i can put my site on the web and my site is www.boscoslife.com and www.boscoslife.info and i have a different user for each site\
[22:51] <Jack_Sparrow> Slart, Do you remember the the remastering program.. three letter. unk  ugh  something odd.. but a good tool

[22:52] <Jack_Sparrow> no..
[22:52] <ortsvorsteher> bead123: sorry, i didnt understand what exactly you need.
[22:53] <PovAddict> who was banned? o.o
[22:53] <Vinceman> Slart? how can you set the imagesize?
[22:53] <onthefence9281> i just upgraded fro 8.04 to 8.10 and now WoW is running REALLY slowly, unplayably slow actually, any idea what would cause this? (i did notice one CPU was maxed while the other was at 50%)
[22:54] <bead123> ortsvorsteher: `i have 2 websites and i need to be able to edit the /home/bead2/public_html/index.html  and have it show up on for example www.bead2.com and    then for the secound site  /home/bead1/public_html/index.html  and have it show up on for example www.bead1.com
[22:54] <rww> Jack_Sparrow: Ubuntu Customization Kit (UCK)?
[22:54] <PovAddict> bead123: repeating yourself doesn't make it clearer
[22:55] <Some_ux> here's another question. If I only get my IP from my ISP via ppp , how can i "firewall" my machine before i get my IP ?
[22:55] <ensay> bead123 -> perhaps a visit to #apache experts?
[22:55] <Slart> Vinceman: well.. it was the only thing I could think of that would make some kind of diagonal pattern
[22:55] <Slart> Vinceman: I don't think it's something you can set yourself..
[22:56] <bead123> PovAddict: i need to be able to edit www.boscoslife.com (the index.html) file on my server so i am editing the index.html file that is in my home/bead2/public_html folder
[22:56] <Jack_Sparrow> rww, ding  ding ding, give yourself a cigar..
[22:56] <Slart> Some_ux: you can make a hole for the dhcp traffic from your isp
[22:56] <CyberGabber> Is there an alternative for 'JLC's Internet TV' (win-prog) to watch (web)tv-channels without a TV-card?
[22:56] <ensay> Some_ux -> ppp has some firewalling features too, but you can always activate your iptables upon getting the ip from ppp
[22:56] <Mimi> Can I install ipw driver in a way that it will be automatically updated? I don't want to install from source every month ;p
[22:56] <ubuntu_> x1250 te llego me pateo

[22:56] <redvamp128> here is a quick question for you-- there is a command to get ubuntu to list all devices and to write that info to a file-- what is that?
[22:57] <Slart> Some_ux: but I don't know how the firewall works with ppp.. never done that
[22:57] <Slart> redvamp128: lshw
[22:57] <Some_ux> ensay: won't that leave me vulnerable for a split sec ?
[22:57] <PovAddict> !es > ubuntu_

[22:57] <dinho> what kind of chatroom is this
[22:58] <Gobby> Does anyone know a proper way of getting photoshop to work flawlessly? Its not working so hot.. thanks running it using wine, im in ubuntu studio
[22:58] <dinho> what s the topic
[22:58] <Travis-42> can I safely use the "upgrade distribution" option to upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10 or should I install fresh?  what could go wrong during a distribution upgrade?
[22:58] <xSlack> Does anyone know how i can get my title bars back on my windows (The minimize, maximize, close) buttons
[22:58] <Mimi> ensay, Hmmm... sorry, do you know why Ubuntu uses iwl now? It's horrible... ipw is not being worked on anymore, right?

[22:59] <dinho> UBUNTU RULEZZZ
[22:59] <xSlack> Slart: yes im using compiz
[22:59] <Slart> xSlack: the decorator is the program responsible for doing borders, title bars and such

[22:59] <Nicolas87> ciao
[22:59] <ensay> Some_ux -> are you that paranoid? anyhow you can always make the default policy drop, then activate your ppp
[22:59] <redvamp128> Slart:  thanks that worked
[22:59] <Some_ux> :P
[22:59] <Slart> xSlack: I think the easiest way is to install the gnome fusion icon.. from that you can restart compiz, restart the decorator and such
[23:00] <dinho> because it s the best OS i ever saw
[23:00] <Slart> redvamp128: you're welcome
[23:00] <_Vi_> !it > Nicolas87
[23:00] <xSlack> Slart: Theirs not an option for it
[23:00] <nach> Any way to undo an apt-get build-dep ?
[23:00] <Slart> xSlack: ah.. you're right.. have you tried restarting compiz?
[23:00] <quibbler> xSlack, in compiz configuration manager turn on winow decorations
[23:01] <dinho> bye people nice chating with you
[23:01] <corinth> I was installing VirtualBox 2.1 when my connection to my wireless network was lost for some reason. After that, and since rebooting, I can't see any wireless networks. Help?
[23:01] <Some_ux> So basically to protect my machine I have to setup a total iron curtain on the external interface (apart from PPP to the ISP) and only when PPP is raised open up more ?
[23:01] <xSlack> quibbler: Whats that under
[23:01] <nach> Any way to undo an apt-get build-dep ?
[23:01] <ensay> corinth -> sudo iwlist wlan0 scan   any output?
[23:02] <quibbler> xSlack, effects
[23:02] <Slart> quibbler: oh my.. why is that even possible to disable.. good catch there
[23:02] <slew> what's the best way to compile a program from source, or is there a source to deb package available?
[23:02] <Stinky> slew:  ./configure, make, make install
[23:03] <corinth> ensay: wlan0       Interface doesn't support scanning: Network is down
[23:03] <rww> slew: most programs have compilation instructions included with the source download. You'll need the "build-essential" package to compile many programs. You can use checkinstall to generate a .deb package (for your personal use; it's non-portable)
[23:03] <rww> !checkinstall | slew
[23:03] <ensay> corinth -> is that your wifi nic name? or is it ath0?   sudo lshw -C network
[23:03] <xSlack> quibbler: Thank you, got it
[23:03] <psicobra> hi all how do i identify my video card chipset?
[23:04] <quibbler> xSlack, you are welcome
[23:04] <ortsvorsteher> psicobra: lspci
[23:04] <psicobra> cheers
[23:04] <ortsvorsteher> psicobra: lspci | grep -i vga
[23:04] <ensay> psicobra -> try also  xdpyinfo
[23:04] <rww> psicobra: if it's a PCI card, run "lspci" in the terminal and look for the line with "VGA compatible controller" or something similar
[23:04] <slew> thanks rww, Stinky. the package i'm looking at is a new ps2 emulator that has no build instructions.
[23:05] <corinth> ensay: It looks like it might be called wmaster0
[23:05] <rww> slew: do you have a link to its download page?
[23:05] <ensay> corinth -> your drive is not loaded, reload it please
[23:05] <slew> rww, http://www.pcsx2.net/downloads.php
[23:05] <PC_Nerd> Hi, Attempting to play DVD's on ubuntu 8.10 with totem and whenever it gets to loading the titles/menus into the right hand panel it quits unexpectedly.  Ive installed ubuntu-restricted-extras and libdvdcss2
[23:06] <SkyLeach> hey all can anyone tell me what might cause bash to ignore .bashrc files?
[23:06] <Blitzz|Kubuntu> How to make xinput mouse acceleration settings permanent? 64-bit Hardy
[23:06] <kkathman> I used to have kubuntu on my system, but dont anymore, but when the system boots it still has that splash page for kubuntu...can I remove it?
[23:06] <SkyLeach> root will load the /root/.bashrc file, but none of the user accounts load .bashrc
[23:06] <ensay> SkyLeach -> did you try to login anew?
[23:06] <SkyLeach> ensay, lol yes this has been an issue for several weeks.
[23:06] <Slart> SkyLeach: running as a different user. ie sudo/gksudo
[23:06] <P4C0> hello, when I installed ubuntu server, it asked for the way to install updates, i choose automatic, however I can't see any cronttab or similar for that... how are automatic updates done in ubuntu server?
[23:06] <siefer132> Hey, can anyone tell me why my Movie Player crashes every time i try and play a video?
[23:07] <SkyLeach> I didn't set up or configure the server I inherited it from an ex admin.
[23:07] <ensay> SkyLeach -> i dont know if it was yesterday or last month..
[23:07] <corinth> ensay: Trying that.
[23:07] <SkyLeach> and when I say none of the users save root load their .bashrc files, I mean not one out of the 8 I tried.
[23:07] <user___> P4C0: also try #ubuntu-server
[23:07] <P4C0> user___: thanks
[23:07] <SkyLeach> I checked permissions on the files, /home dir and individual user home dirs.
[23:08] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | SkyLeach
[23:08] <ensay> SkyLeach -> look in your /etc/profile  line 16 & 17 ?
[23:08] <SkyLeach> I simply know of no way to configure bash to specifically ignore .bashrc.
[23:08] <PC_Nerd> Any suggestions on getting DVD's to play?  I have checked the region.
[23:08] <SkyLeach> ensay, checking...
[23:09] <quibbler> PC_Nerd, try vlc
[23:09] <ortsvorsteher> !dvd | PC_Nerd
[23:09] <PC_Nerd> hmmm - attempting to avoid VLC s i had issues with it in 8.04.   Thanks ill check out those (I prefer the free formats :P)
[23:09] <SkyLeach> ensay, line 16 is the else statement for setting up PS1 based on root vs. std user.
[23:10] <ensay> SkyLeach -> ex-admin may have modified it
[23:10] <SkyLeach> possibly, but I am not aware of any way to intentionally prevent the loading of user .bashrc files.
[23:11] <ensay> SkyLeach -> why not? he wanted to prevent users setting their own environment via .bashrc
[23:11] <bead123> 	ok here is my problem when i edit the /home/bead2/public_html/index.html it does not edit my site www.bead2.com that is not the real address why is that
[23:12] <corinth> ensay: I disabled it, rebooted, then enabled it, then rebooted. Still nothing.
[23:12] <nach> Any way to undo an apt-get build-dep ?
[23:13] <SkyLeach> ensay, I don't know if he attempted or achieved a way to do this, if it is possible to do it then I can serach for any scriptlets that could be doing this.  The point being I am unaware of a *way* to do it, thus I do not know what to look for.  I know enough about bash scripting to spot odities but I have seen nothing of particular interest in /etc/profile or /etc/bash.bashrc
[23:13] <ensay> corinth -> what did you disable?
[23:13] <vigo> SkyLeach: LONG read: but here> http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bashref.html
[23:13] <corinth> The driver for it in Hardware Drivers.
[23:13] <bead123> 	ok here is my problem when i edit the /home/bead2/public_html/index.html it does not edit my site www.bead2.com that is not the real address why is that
[23:13] <ensay> corinth -> how did you enable it?
[23:14] <corinth> Clicked *enable*.
[23:14] <corinth> Or activate, whatever
[23:14] <lstarnes> bead123: is the IP used by www.bead2.com your IP?
[23:15] <ensay> corinth -> when you do  lsmod |grep thatdrivername   any results ?    use modprobe perhaps?
[23:15] <nikitis> Anyone having problems with manual installing of 180.22 nvidia drivers?  When i reboot, i get a (EE) cannot find a kernel module error.  How can I remedy this?  I'm having to run in low graphics mode
[23:15] <SkyLeach> of course, one could do it by specifying the --rcfile command via an alias, but again I do not know how one would alias /bin/sh or /bin/bash as applied to the command executed by sshd other than by specifying it in the /etc/passwd file, and that I checked.
[23:15] <bead123> lstarnes: yes it is i own it on my server
[23:16] <tomcat_ha> uh
[23:16] <tomcat_ha> i installed ubuntu on my laptop
[23:16] <tomcat_ha> and now there is a fan spinning like crazy
[23:16] <Cpudan80> prob gfx card fan
[23:16] <tomcat_ha> it scares the shit out of me
[23:16] <lstarnes> bead123: and is your server configured to use /home/bead2/public_html as its DocumentRoot?
[23:16] <tomcat_ha> hm
[23:16] <xSlack> Can someone give me a hand setting up port forwarding for http
[23:16] <nikitis> Anyone?
[23:16] <tomcat_ha> i have a x1300 mobility
[23:16] <peterloorke> hi all, i have a simple question. should i use x-chat for cloaking my host? if not can you please help me how to do it cause i read faqs but i couldn't manage it
[23:16] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: what driver are you using?
[23:17] <tomcat_ha> atm
[23:17] <tomcat_ha> none
[23:17] <Cpudan80> peterloorke: you have to ask freenode staff to do that
[23:17] <tomcat_ha> for my gfx card
[23:17] <corinth> ensay: By the way, with the sudo lshw -C network command, next to the wireless section it says *=network DISABLED
[23:17] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: you have to use something ....
[23:17] <tomcat_ha> desktops can run without drivers installed :P
[23:17] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: it should be ati probably -- check /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[23:17] <SkyLeach> tomcat_ha, it sounds like you need to check your acip settings
[23:17] <corinth> *-network DISABLED   I mean
[23:17] <peterloorke> Cpudan80: oh, i see "stats p" stuff right? :P
[23:17] <bead123> lstarnes: no i am assuming it is /var/www/ but i have 2 websites
[23:17] <Cpudan80> peterloorke: yes - or just join #freenode
[23:17] <tomcat_ha> but granted i only have windows desktop experience
[23:17] <tomcat_ha> acip settings?
[23:17] <Cpudan80> peterloorke: ask for a staffer to help you get a cloak, might take a sec
[23:18] <mikebeecham1> hi guys...is there a decent remote desktop client for Linux?
[23:18] <ensay> corinth -> can you post the results in pastebin of sudo lshw -C network
[23:18] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: at a terminal - type gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[23:18] <corinth> ensay: Sure, gimmie a minute. Gotta copy/paste it between machines.
[23:18] <tomaw> peterloorke: set an email address (/msg nickserv help set email) and I will enable one for you
[23:18] <peterloorke> stats p command returns 0 stuff members Cpudan80
[23:18] <vigo> SkyLeach: my apologies, you obviously know that MAN, delete/purge the unknown users?
[23:18] <peterloorke> oh tomaw
[23:18] <peterloorke> i already set them (i mean that 7 rules)
[23:18] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: look for the driver line under the device section
[23:19] <tomaw> peterloorke: you did not. :)
[23:19] <Cpudan80> peterloorke: ignore that --- join #freenode and just ask, they sit in there
[23:19] <tomcat_ha> there s nothing
[23:19] <dergringo> Hi. Today I plugged in my new broadband modem (3g/hdspa) and it all worked fine out of the box. Now I'm at home and try to connect to my wireless network bur the NetworkManager doesn't do anything! It uses 70% of CPU and just hangs. Any hint?
[23:19] <peterloorke> ooopss :D
[23:19] <tomcat_ha> i typed exactly what you said
[23:19] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: there's nothing ?
[23:19] <nightrid3r> bead123: check your vhosts.conf file to see the documentroot
[23:19] <tomcat_ha> or should i type c:\ for etc?
[23:19] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: there must be something ...
[23:20] <tomcat_ha> im a total linux noob :P
[23:20] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: are you sure you typed /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[23:20] <uatec> hiya, i've got a DVD iso which is 8 gig, but when i mount it (sudo mount wow-wotlk-eu.iso /mnt -o loop) i only see two files, neither of which add up anywhere near what i am expecting to be the contents of the iso, what's up with that? what am i doing wrong?
[23:20] <bead123> nightrid3r:  ok stay with me well i check
[23:20] <Cpudan80> Exactly like that tomcat_ha
[23:20] <mrinehart93> hey guys
[23:20] <SkyLeach> vigo, I'm just going to drop debug lines into the top/bottom of /etc/profile and /etc/bash.bashrc and see if they are terminating early because of a bug.  If so then the issue is a bug rather than an intentional setting.
[23:20] <tomcat_ha> yep
[23:20] <tomcat_ha> its empty
[23:20] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: linux files/folders are case sensitive
[23:20] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: hrm... weird
[23:20] <PC_Nerd> Ok, installed gxine and followed instructions on the url you send me (gzone, libdvdcss2, and install-css.sh)  gzine runs, I hear the expected audio, no video (black) but it does resize the window.
[23:20] <peterloorke> tomaw: it' ok
[23:20] <peterloorke> i set an email adress
[23:21] <SkyLeach> source ~/.bashrc throws an error of: sh: `_debconf-show': not a valid identifier
[23:21] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: Do System --> Admin --> Hardware drivers
[23:21] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: see if it mentions anything about your gfx card
[23:21] <SkyLeach> so something is malconfigured somewhere for certain.
[23:21] <Jado> hi, i need some help : if i choose the 640x480 resolution (xrandr --size 640x480 or nvidia-settings), the desktop does not appear entirely on my screen and i can't see the bottom part of it. With other resolutoins, such as 800x600 or 1280x800, i can see all the desktop and not only a part
[23:21] <lstarnes> peterloorke: check /msg nickserv info
[23:21] <corinth> ensay: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/108047/
[23:21] <tomcat_ha> gfx card is not in use it says
[23:22] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: make it in use!
[23:22] <tomcat_ha> should i just download the ati linux driver for the x1300 then
[23:22] <vigo> SkyLeach: That makes good sense, or works on paper. It was just a suggestion to help.
[23:22] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: you could do that - but then you'd have to recompile the kernel
[23:22] <tomcat_ha> it says not found
[23:22] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: not found?
[23:22] <tomcat_ha> yeah
[23:22] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: you pushed the activate button?
[23:22] <tomcat_ha> it connects to the ubuntu server
[23:22] <ensay> corinth -> try to enable it? isnt there like a box you click with network manager?
[23:22] <tomcat_ha> yep after that
[23:22] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: oh you might not have the repo enabled
[23:22] <Cpudan80> !ati | tomcat_ha
[23:23] <peterloorke> lstarnes: yes i checked and confirmed my mail adress
[23:23] <SkyLeach> vigo, yes, and for that my thanks.  I had exhausted the obvious issues already and came here in the hopes of getting additional ideas, which I have recieved.  :-)
[23:23] <dreamy> Jack_Sparrow: hi there. hows it going?
[23:23] <corinth> ensay: nm-applet shows that wireless IS enabled
[23:23] <vigo> SkyLeach: That makes me happy.
[23:23] <PC_Nerd> Any suggestions on getting DVD's to play using gxine?
[23:23] <The_Rebel> how do i tell apt to stop updating a specific package?
[23:23] <The_Rebel> something about pinning
[23:23] <bead123> nightrid3r:  where is that file located vhost
[23:24] <bead123> conf
[23:24] <fosco_> The_Rebel: sudo aptitude hold package
[23:24] <ensay> corinth -> not from what you pasted..but try   sudo ifdown ath0  then sudo ifup ath0
[23:24] <peterloorke> tomaw: is there any other thing that i should do?
[23:24] <tomcat_ha> whatis repo?
[23:24] <tomaw> peterloorke: you're cloaked
[23:24] <iFree> skype: problem with no audio playback -- and find this: http://www.econowics.com/news-from-the-net/170/skype-problem-with-audio-playback-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex/
[23:24] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: Apparently that link doesnt tell you how to enable the repo...
[23:24] <iFree> any problem is i do as per above ?
[23:24] <iFree> if
[23:24] <nightrid3r> bead123: depends on what server you use /etc/apache2 or /etc/httpd most likely
[23:24] <peterloorke> tomaw: lstarnes both of you guys thanx to you
[23:24] <tomaw> :)
[23:24] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: Software repository -- it's trying to connect to the internet to dl the driver
[23:24] <SkyLeach> hmm, only /etc/profile is getting read on user auth
[23:24] <dreamy> does anyone knows a linux recent game (ligth weigth) for me to play ?
[23:25] <purvesh>  /msg NickServ identify
[23:25] <SkyLeach> not /etc/bash.bashrc at all
[23:25] <SkyLeach> and not ~/.bashrc
[23:25] <dreamy> recent and ligth weigth for the system
[23:25] <tomcat_ha> so what do i do then instead?
[23:25] <vigo> What /room can I go to and refresh my lost knowledge on this X-Chat thing? like message and stuff?
[23:25] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: the machine is connected to the internet right tomcat_ha ?
[23:25] <SkyLeach> which leads me to believe that somewhere a configuration setting has been manually altered.
[23:25] <corinth> ensay: ifdown: interface ath0 not configured
[23:25] <Titan8990> dreamy: what kind of game?
[23:25] <bead123> nightrid3r: there is a /etc/host.conf file there what was the file
[23:25] <tomcat_ha> no thats why i am here cpudan80 ;p
[23:25] <dreamy> why the hek .. enemy territory game had to run so slow on my lap
[23:26] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: lol well some people use a different computer
[23:26] <nightrid3r> bead123: no its vhosts.conf
[23:26] <dreamy> Titan8990: thinking game.. strategy .. maybe military  . dunno
[23:26] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: go to system --> admin --> software sources
[23:26] <ensay> corinth -> use the nic name assigned to it, it could have been wlan0, eth0
[23:26] <Brasil> #ubuntubr
[23:26] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: check the first 4 boxes
[23:26] <tomcat_ha> already checked
[23:26] <vigo> Brasil: add a -br
[23:26] <Brasil> hi
[23:26] <The_Rebel> how do i undo the changes that command makes fosco_
[23:26] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: then on the terminal do sudo apt-get update
[23:26] <bead123> nightrid3r: cant locate that file
[23:27] <The_Rebel> (because it didn't work)
[23:27] <fosco_> The_Rebel: sudo aptitude unhold package
[23:27] <bead123> using locate
[23:27] <dreamy> Titan8990: its ok.. im going to do some web search my self
[23:27] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: then rerun that driver thing and download it
[23:27] <corinth> ensay: Nope, didn't work still. :-(
[23:27] <Brasil> anyone can give o chanel of brasil?
[23:27] <Titan8990> dreamy: my favorite is openarena
[23:27] <marcel> how much memory i need for a full installation of kubuntu on hard disk ? (now i have 20GB) ... ?
[23:27] <nightrid3r> bead123: hmmm ok give me the url of the site rhat works
[23:27] <vigo> Brasil: Hello, br | Brazil
[23:27] <lstarnes> Brasil: #ubuntu-br
[23:27] <Cpudan80> marcel: about 5GB
[23:27] <Titan8990> dreamy: but really, none of them compare to windows games unless you are a "casual" gamer
[23:27] <The_Rebel> xserver-xorg-video-intel < the update manager is still reccomending it even though i did a "hold"
[23:28] <Cpudan80> marcel: 20GB is plenty
[23:28] <marcel> including source code (C && C++) ??
[23:28] <tomcat_ha> its done
[23:28] <Cpudan80> marcel: no
[23:28] <caktux> with a gigabit switch, are 190mbps/140mbps results with iperf normal?
[23:28] <marcel> ?
[23:28] <Cpudan80> marcel: default install does not come with the source code
[23:28] <marcel> i run adept
[23:28] <Brasil> thanks
[23:28] <Cpudan80> And you really dont need all of the source code
[23:28] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: now try and enable that driver
[23:28] <Cpudan80> system --> admin --> hardware ...
[23:28] <dreamy> Titan8990: okay.. but im relying on better perfomances . because of having linux
[23:28] <Pablisco> hello everybody
[23:29] <tomcat_ha> its downloading now
[23:29] <marcel> how much memory install adept (full) ??
[23:29] <dreamy> Titan8990: ive been wasting alot of time tryng for linux to take good advantege of my 3d
[23:29] <bead123> nightrid3r: right now when i type in the ip address on my server it uses the /var/www/index.html file that is how i edit the ip addresses site but how do i link my ipaddress to www.bead2.com for example
[23:29] <Pablisco> I wonder if somebody could help me with grub, cheers
[23:29] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: hooray!
[23:29] <bead123> nightrid3r: i have 2 sites and 2 seperate ip adresses to do that to
[23:29] <vigo> In synaptic, should I check that little box that says something about Binarys only?
[23:30] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: this should get you better 3D performance as well -- in case you wanted to do compiz (spinny cube)
[23:30] <tomcat_ha> now update manager is running
[23:30] <nightrid3r> bead123: virtual hosting
[23:30] <aytac> hi all.
[23:30] <tomcat_ha> i just want to use this laptop for internetting
[23:30] <Cpudan80> oh
[23:30] <bead123> nightrid3r: i am guessing i dont know how do to this or were to start
[23:30] <caktux> anyone? im sure most of you are already using gigabit lan networks..
[23:31] <Cpudan80> caktux: Ehhhh no
[23:31] <tomcat_ha> i hope soulseek runs on ubuntu >_>
[23:31] <Cpudan80> caktux: I'd be willing to bet that most networks out there are 100MB to the desktop
[23:31] <dreamy> why whould anyone use utah glx ?
[23:31] <vigo> tomcat-ha: Ubuntu is FUN! and easy'ish'
[23:31] <Cpudan80> caktux: The backend is most assuredly gigabit -- but not the drops to the desktops
[23:31] <nodealmsft> hey I need to install a 64-bit OS over my 32-bit install but somehow make a partition so i don't lose all my home folder information
[23:31] <nightrid3r> bead123: www.webmin.com this will help you setup apache virtual host, get the tar package, not the deb
[23:31] <jscinoz> I'm trying to use compiz, however when ever i have more than 4 or 5 windows open all the windows are black instead of showing what they should, how can i fix this?
[23:31] <Cpudan80> nodealmsft: cant do it
[23:31] <jscinoz> I'm using the 180.22 nvidia driver if this helps
[23:32] <caktux> Cpudan80: i thought I was getting in late on the gigabit wagon.. hehe
[23:32] <Jack_Sparrow> !webin
[23:32] <Cpudan80> nodealmsft: best thing you can do is partition it and move the stuff

[23:32] <netzel> hey guys i've never done this before
[23:32] <nightrid3r> bead123: but to use virtualhosts you need to have dns point to the ip of your box
[23:32] <ensay> corinth -> http://www.ubuntuaone.com/content/intrepid-update-breaks-ath5k
[23:32] <tomcat_ha> also hurray for fiber optic internet!
[23:32] <Pablisco> not sure if anybody could help me but I just bought an PATA hard drive (the computer is 7 years old) I mange to install ubuntu but when I restart grub gives me a ReadError, anybody has any idea of what can be causing it?
[23:32] <Cpudan80> nodealmsft: In which case - you would make a partition with gparted
[23:32] <s3a> is there a virtualbox-ose channel?
[23:32] <Steelflint> caktux, It's not just your router/switch, but you also need gigabit ethernet adapters in the computers on your network as well.
[23:33] <fusionxtc> does anyone know how to make a webcam work on adobe flash player 10?
[23:33] <nodealmsft> Cpudan80, right so just make a new partition and throw all data into the partition
[23:33] <SkyLeach> aha!
[23:33] <SkyLeach> this is an ubuntu/debian thing
[23:33] <ensay> SkyLeach -> you found ?
[23:33] <vigo> SkyLeach: Success?
[23:33] <SkyLeach> ubuntu doesn't use .bashrc by default, it's compiled to use .profile instead.
[23:33] <Cpudan80> nodealmsft: yes -- copy everything beneath the home folder over to the new partition
[23:33] <nikitis> Ok, i'm having a serious issue with installing 180.22 manually.  I need some help.  I think my package manager is screwing up the install.
[23:33] <Steelflint> caktux, For example, I have a gigabit switch, but all my network devices are still 10/100mbit.
[23:33] <caktux> Steelflint: got that as well, and cat6 cables..
[23:33] <SkyLeach> ln -sf .bashrc .profile = result.
[23:33] <ensay> SkyLeach -> good find
[23:34] <Cpudan80> nodealmsft: when you install 64 bit, mount the new partition as /home (do the advanced partitioner)
[23:34] <nodealmsft> Cpudan80, what do i do doing install to ensure my data doesn't get erased
[23:34] <fusionxtc> is there a server for webcam help?
[23:34] <nodealmsft> Cpudan80, lol ok anything i should know about a standard way to setup partition?
[23:34] <Pablisco> anybody has any idea why my hdd doesnt work?
[23:34] <caktux> Steelflint: so i have my 2 computers on the gigabit switch, connected to my router.. all gigabit"ed" ... just wondering about the speeds actually..
[23:34] <vigo> SkyLeach: Maybe that would be a good addition to the Forums
[23:35] <nikitis> Question: What do I do to install 180.22 nvidia drivers?  I tried installing them manually and they work, until i reboot, then it can no longer find a kernel module.
[23:35] <Cpudan80> nodealmsft: nothing special, just resize the existing ones so you can fit the /home one
[23:35] <nodealmsft> Cpudan80, during the install is what im talking about
[23:35] <Pablisco> I can see ubuntu is installed and all
[23:35] <caktux> Steelflint: the router/modem/wifi part is all 100mbps..
[23:35] <SkyLeach> perhaps :-)
[23:35] <Cpudan80> nodealmsft: well you have to go to the advanced section, select the HDD/partition with the home stuff on it -- then change the mount option to /home
[23:35] <nikitis> Please, anyone.
[23:35] <Cpudan80> nodealmsft: Its all in a nice gui -- I cant remember the exact way it goes though
[23:35] <PC_Nerd> Any suggestions on a no video output gxine, but hearing audio. ?
[23:35] <Berzerker> Ubuntu mightymouse connected with bluetooth, but I can't scroll. Any help?
[23:36] <vigo> SkyLeach: It is a solution to a problematic situation. all good data helps
[23:36] <Steelflint> caktux, it sounds like your router is still a bottleneck, but you're getting full duplex 100mbit out of it.
[23:36] <nodealmsft> Cpudan80, huh just research it i guess
[23:36] <mr_sukor> what is different of synaptic package manager between add remove program?
[23:36] <SkyLeach> vigo, I'm not even a memeber of the forums, I am generally a gentoo user.
[23:36] <fusionxtc> does anyone know how to make a webcam work on adobe flash player 10?
[23:36] <SkyLeach> but since the other sysadmin is now gone, I inherited the ubuntu/debian machiens.
[23:36] <SkyLeach> *machines.
[23:36] <Jack_Sparrow> mr_sukor, add remove is a subset of what is available from synaptic or apt-get
[23:36] <nikitis> Hello?  Question above ^^
[23:37] <SkyLeach> I'll join the forums and help out where I can.
[23:37] <Jack_Sparrow> great
[23:37] <caktux> Steelflint: i tried disconnecting the router, isolating the switch.. since the 2 computers still knew about each other they stayed connected.. speeds stayed the same.. so when they talk to each other the router doesn't seem to affect them..
[23:37] <ssz> heyyy
[23:37] <tomcat_ha> fan speed went up a notch again :|
[23:37] <tomcat_ha> go go update
[23:37] <Berzerker> Ubuntu mightymouse connected with bluetooth, but I can't scroll

[23:37] <vigo> SkyLeach: Just post it, please, or do a write up on the process used and then post it...is easy to join,,and fun
[23:37] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: you need to reboot after that thing finishes
[23:37] <tomcat_ha> yeah i know
[23:37] <nikitis> So nobody has had an issue with nvidia drivers 180.22?
[23:38] <Cpudan80> tomcat_ha: oh I thought it had finished and you didnt do it or something
[23:38] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[23:38] <Steelflint> caktux, Ahh, I know just enough about this to be dangerous, you might be getting interference from something else then.
[23:38] <Berzerker> Ubuntu mightymouse connected with bluetooth, but I can't scroll
[23:38] <tomcat_ha> i decided to update the rest

[23:38] <gordonjcp> hi
[23:38] <fusionxtc> does anyone know how to make a webcam work on adobe flash player 10?
[23:38] <caktux> Steelflint: I think so.. might just be the OSes and general network overhead... anyway, thanks :)
[23:38] <cjae> or must I use separate X server screens?

[23:45] <Cpudan80> Berzerker: Sorry to hear that
[23:46] <Berzerker> If someone will eventually help me, then I'll gladly wait, however, no one even acknowledges my problem.
[23:46] <fusionxtc> berzerker, i am the same way buddy
[23:47] <razaccour> how do i get my logitech webcam to work with skype?
[23:47] <fusionxtc> i havnt gotten a respounce yet
[23:47] <razaccour> do i have to install the software with wine?
[23:47] <SkyLeach> sachael,
[23:47] <razaccour> usually plugin devices work automatically
[23:47] <SkyLeach> from within vim, type help status-line
[23:47] <tomcat_ha> I would help if i had any knowledge of linux :P
[23:47] <nightrid3r> Berzerker: maybe nobody know a solution, repeat your question like very 10 minutes, maybe somone enters that can help you
[23:47] <SkyLeach> it says right there that you can set it with ':set statusline'
[23:48] <SkyLeach> for for vimbuddy, the command is ":set statusline=%{VimBuddy()}"
[23:48] <SkyLeach> however, you probably want to do this in your ~/.vimrc
[23:48] <fusionxtc> can anyone help me out with my problem?
[23:49] <topsub> what is the best way to un install ubuntu if i don't have my windows xp pro disk?
[23:49] <SkyLeach> fusionxtc, repeat the question
[23:49] <SkyLeach> I scrolled up and didn't see where you asked
[23:49] <jon__> You need to format to install another OS, do find your XP disd.
[23:49] <hekaldama> topsub: what do you mean
[23:49]  * SkyLeach needs to get back to work, so I will help a couple more people and then back to work.
[23:49] <hekaldama> you want to install windows
[23:49] <topsub> how can i just uninstall ubuntu?
[23:49] <fusionxtc> my webcam works with cheese and other programs but doesnt work with adobe flash player 10
[23:49] <topsub> i have windows already installed
[23:49] <fusionxtc> what can i do to fix that?
[23:49] <Mimi> Anyone here using ibex and ipl3945 ? (instead of the iwl) Can you tell me how well it works?
[23:49] <nightrid3r> fusionxtc: sometimes you just have to wait, it took me 3 years to get my wifi going
[23:49] <jon__> You can't just uninstall it.
[23:49] <fusionxtc> sorry man
[23:50] <topsub> whats the best way to remove ubuntu
[23:50] <SkyLeach> fusionxtc, good question.  I have a webcam and I use yahoo! live chat and it works with it.
[23:50] <hekaldama> topsub: can you read the partition from windows?
[23:50] <SkyLeach> I, however, do not run ubuntu so I will do my best to assist.
[23:50] <topsub> hekaldama what do you mean?
[23:50] <SkyLeach> give me a moment to refresh my memory on how I set mine up, and then I will ask pertinent questions :-)
[23:51] <razaccour> how do i get my logitech webcam to work with skype?
[23:51] <hekaldama> I would imagine you have Ubuntu on a diff partition then your windows partition
[23:51] <fusionxtc> stickam.com runs on flash 10 so flash doesnt recognize the webcam but programs like cheese and skype do.
[23:51] <topsub> i have ubuntu on a different hard drive
[23:51] <hekaldama> oh, so all you do is choose which hdd to boot on boot?
[23:52] <topsub> when my systems boots a grub menu comes up and i select what OS i want
[23:52] <SkyLeach> fusionxtc, first question: are you running x86 or amd64?
[23:52] <lollasd> hey guys I have a problem with the installation of Ubuntu, not sure this is the place to ask for support
[23:52] <hekaldama> hmm
[23:52] <fusionxtc> amd 64
[23:52] <topsub> i am having grub problems but i rather just uninstall ubuntu / remove ubuntu
[23:52] <nightrid3r> lollasd: yes it is
[23:52] <Jimi__Hendrix> hi...any insite on this:https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/308402
[23:52] <topsub> i have ubuntu on my laptop and thats enough
[23:52] <redvamp128> lollasd:  ask and people will help you
[23:53] <fusionxtc> amd64 meaning the processor?
[23:53] <SkyLeach> fusionxtc, ah! support for 64bit flash is very new, and as such undoubtedly buggy.
[23:53] <Desu> Exactly, Grub is installed to the MBR so if you just remove the partition Grub is going to give you shit.
[23:53] <fusionxtc> ohhhh!
[23:53] <hekaldama> are you on the box now?
[23:53] <fusionxtc> yes i have heard that flash 9 works well with webcams but flash 10 does not
[23:53] <topsub> i am on my laptop now, its on my desktop
[23:53] <hekaldama> if so can you pastie / gist me the output from df -h
[23:53] <fusionxtc> but you cant find flash 9 anywhere
[23:54] <Jimi__Hendrix> anyone?
[23:54] <xSlack> Can someone give me a hand setting up http port forwarding on my router?
[23:54] <SkyLeach> I have a 64bit system here but I just built it from source and have not yet even set up X on it, so I may have more information in a couple of days after getting it operational, but right now I have no way to be certain that my suggestions are accurate.
[23:54] <redvamp128> fusionxtc:  which is your main distro-- if 8.04 it is the default one in the synaptic
[23:54] <topsub> hekaldama, ya give me one second
[23:54] <hekaldama> k
[23:54] <lollasd> ok, here's the problem. I formatted my HD, installed XP on a 15gb partition. Now i'm installing ubuntu. when I want to add a partition everything looks normal. it asks if I want it to be primary or logical. then once I create the first partion (say swap) and I want to create another one, it doesn't ask me if I want it logical or primary, is this normal?
[23:54] <fusionxtc> im running 8.10 right now
[23:55]  * Jimi__Hendrix is desperate...
[23:55] <topsub> hekaldama,, i have to unplug the hard drive that isn't work and boot into ubuntu for some reason i get error 17 when trying to boot with all 3 hard drive si have plugged in
[23:55] <fusionxtc> skyleach: you do not run ubuntu?
[23:56] <SkyLeach> fusionxtc, not genreally, no, I run gentoo
[23:56] <ensay> lollasd -> once you are in the extended, it will not asked you anymore if you want primary or extended
[23:56] <redvamp128> fusionxtc:  are you sure you want to do this-- may or may not work-- but you have to first unistall your current version of flash
[23:56] <fusionxtc> gentoo? what is that
[23:56] <fusionxtc> using synaptic?
[23:56] <hekaldama> hmm
[23:56] <redvamp128> yes to remove it
[23:56] <SkyLeach> fusionxtc, I am learning the differences in ubuntu now because I have inherited a number of debian and ubuntu servers and am supposed to admin them.
[23:56] <redvamp128> fusion pm
[23:56] <lollasd> I see..so it'r normal. and which partition should I create first? doesn the order have any importance?
[23:57] <redvamp128> fusionxtc:  pm ok?
[23:57] <hekaldama> topsub: can you describe your setup a little more, 3 hdds, 1 windows, 1 ubuntu?
[23:57] <Mimi> Im using iwl3495 and I keep getting disconnected. Sometimes every minute, or 5, or every hour. It varies, but tonight its really bad. Is there a fix
[23:57] <fusionxtc> how do u do that i am a n00b with this xchat
[23:57] <SkyLeach> and to answer your question fusionxtc, gentoo is a source-based distribution or "meta distribution" that is arguably the most configurable and developer-friendly linux distribution.
[23:57] <fusionxtc> ohhh!
[23:57] <topsub> hekaldama, yes 750 ubuntu, 750 misc media / data, 74 gig windows. when i plug in my 750 media hard drive i get error 17... also... http://knowmad.pastebin.com/m6028dc63
[23:58] <fusionxtc> sounds like you got alot of schooling to me
[23:58] <Desu> Lol yea, that's Gentoo in a nutshell.
[23:58] <Infinito-> hello, may I ask, what are my options for running virtual windows over ubuntu ?
[23:58] <Jimi__Hendrix> so no input on why fglrx wont activate?
[23:58] <topsub> hekaldama, so in order to just boot my computer i have to unplug my 750 gig data hard drive otherwise i get that error
[23:58] <Infinito-> I heard of vmware
[23:59] <ensay> Mimi -> perhaps some power saving mechanism is at work? see if your driver support dis-abling them, what settings, that i dont know,  man iwpriv
[23:59]  * chull smiles
[23:59] <gordonjcp> Infinito-: vmware would work, qemu would work, it depends on what you're trying to do
[23:59] <hekaldama> error 17 in POST / Boot, or in the actual booting of the kernel
[23:59] <nightrid3r> Infinito-: virtualbox-ose
[23:59] <Brack101> I'm trying to use ntp to synchronize my time and the manpage is confusing me.  I added "server nw-time.nist.gov" to my /etc/ntp.conf and did /etc/init.d/ntpd restart, but my time still isn't synchronized....can someone help?
[23:59] <Infinito-> well
[23:59] <lollasd> I see..so it'r normal. and which partition should I create first? does the order have any importance?
[23:59] <topsub> hekaldama,  right after it says "grub loading..."
