[00:00] <_dbd_l12> KyMc1985: for PPC there used to be Yellow-Dog linux too iirc
[00:00] <Flamittor_> why is hlm aways login is it a bot or human?
[00:00] <_dbd_l12> KyMc1985: which off course is not ubuntu ;-)
[00:00] <notwist> !ask | jdmnynja
[00:00] <Jufis> Is there way to configure specific applications to have specific effects? I'd like to my text editor to roll down from the top, but all other applications to appear normally
[00:00] <hlm> Flamittor_, I am human
[00:00] <Flamittor_> ubuntu
[00:01] <nightrid3r> jdmnynja tell more about your problem, then someone might be able to help
[00:01] <kingsley> How easy or hard is it to reduce the desktop's resolution from 1600 by 1200 with version 8.04?
[00:01] <devon>  has anyone seen a problem where the mouse ceases to register clicks in 8.10? cursor still moves when I move the mouse, just does not pass clicks through to the window below the mouse cursor.
[00:01] <bpat1434> I installed inkscape via apt-get and when I go to run it, it errors out complaining about libMagick++.so.10.  Anyone had this issue in 8.10?
[00:01] <hlm> !pm>Flamittor_
[00:01] <kingsley> devon: If I were you, I might try a different mouse.
[00:01] <Flamittor_> what linux distro do you guys think is the best?
[00:01] <jdmnynja> I am trying to install Ubuntu as my stand alone operating system, but everytime that I get to step 4 out of 7 at the partioning phase, it doesn't show up any harddrives to partition or work with. I want to completely destroy windows and run ubuntu.
[00:02] <_dbd_l12> Flamittor_: what do you think ? In an ubuntu channel ?
[00:02] <devon> kingsley: I have a mouse and a touchpad, clicks cease to register on either one, so I don't think it's hardware
[00:02] <fde> Flamittor_: you don't suppose the answer will be rather biased perhaps in this channel?
[00:02] <bpat1434> _dbd_l12, I was gonna suggest windoze... ;)
[00:02] <nightrid3r> Flamittor_ being an ubuntu channel i guess everyone will go for fedora :p
[00:02] <notwist> jdmnynja: the problem might be a sata controller driver or something. i had that problem once
[00:02] <redvamp128> kingsley:  either system- preferences- screen resolution if using xorg- or for nvidia = sudo nvidia-settings - and if ati you would have to ask someone with an ati card
[00:02] <kingsley> devon: I agree.
[00:02] <devon> kingsley: it's probably this damn macbook hardware
[00:02] <Flamittor_> why are you always on hlm
[00:02] <notwist> jdmnynja: is it a laptop?
[00:03] <jdmnynja> no, it is a desktop.
[00:03] <hlm> Flamittor_, to support Ubuntu!
[00:03] <petllama> Flamittor_, are you a troll?
[00:03] <kingsley> devon: Perhaps X's log file holds a useful diagnostic message.
[00:03] <notwist> petllama: im pretty sure he is
[00:03] <notwist> jdmnynja: the HDD works otherwise but ubuntu install cant find it?
[00:03] <neurobuntu> does anybody here have experience setting up Raid 1 in 8.04?
[00:03] <devon> kingsley: good idea, thanks.  Not sure why I didn't look at that before
[00:04] <jdmnynja> notwist, correct, the HDD works but Ubuntu installer cannot seem to detect it.
[00:04] <nightrid3r> jdmnynja sata HD
[00:04] <notwist> jdmnynja: can you see the hdd in the bios? have you checked with a live cd and looked in the /dev/ folder+
[00:05] <jdmnynja> I'm not sure about these things, let me check.
[00:05] <neurobuntu> I've been trying to setup Raid 1 in 8.04 and all the instructions on line say to select RAID instead of EXT3 during the Partitioning step of the installation but I can't find anywhere to select RAID, it isn't on the options of way so use the disk.... Does anybody know what I could be doing wrong?
[00:05] <stealth_tty1> is ubuntu native with .deb or .rpm files? I think its deb
[00:05] <prince_jammys> stealth_tty1: deb
[00:05] <kingsley> redvamp128: The computer is using nVidia's driver. Is my understanding correct then, that I must use "sudo nvidia-settings" to reduced the desktop's resolution, and that system-> preferences-> screen resolution will not work?
[00:05] <TheLastDodo> It's deb, yeah.
[00:05] <stealth_tty1> prince_jammys: thanks :)
[00:05] <nightrid3r> stealth_tty1 deb
[00:05] <notwist> stealth_tty1: deb
[00:05] <stealth_tty1> lol, thanks guys
[00:05] <neurobuntu> stealth_tty1, .deb (deb is for debian, rpm is red hat package manager)
[00:05] <jdmnynja> Okay, notwist and nightrid3r, my HDD is IDE and yes I can see it in my boot window.
[00:05] <prince_jammys> i disagree. it's deb
[00:06] <redvamp128> kingsley:  With nvidia you have to use sudo nvidia-settings to make the changes permenant.
[00:06] <notwist> jdmnynja: can you see it in the /dev/ folder when you boot with a live cd?
[00:06] <petllama> im thinking about moving from ubuntu 8.10 to debian to try it out
[00:06] <notwist> jdmnynja: /dev/ holds all devices so you should look for a "hda" or something
[00:06] <jdmnynja> yea, i have three hda's.
[00:07] <spirited> Hi I am having problems playing DVD on both VLC media player and Movie Player are there drivers I need to download and install for that?
[00:07] <notwist> jdmnynja: then thats probably three partitions on your harddisk, correct?
[00:07] <neurobuntu> spirited, do you have libdvdcss?
[00:07] <bastid_raZor> !dvd > spirited
[00:07] <jdmnynja> notwist: correct, i have a C: E: and F: drive.
[00:07] <redvamp128> kingsley:  the other one is only if you are using the default xorg- but for nvidia =   sudo nvidia-settings should bring up a window to then choose screen resolution.
[00:07] <alpha7> Is there a wait to turn off a fan inside the motherboard in ubuntu? or control?? with commands/program
[00:07] <notwist> jdmnynja: so if you have nothing on those that you care about, i suggest you start up gparted and delete the partitions
[00:07] <kingsley> redvamp128: Do you happen to know how reliable "sudo nvidia-settings" is for reducing screen resolution?
[00:08] <Dai_> jeez, I thought I'd never get back on...
[00:08] <jdmnynja> notwist: I tried loading gparted through the liveboot but it didn't do anything. only option it gave me was unmount.
[00:08] <bpat1434> I installed inkscape via apt-get and when I go to run it, it errors out complaining about libMagick++.so.10.  Anyone had this issue in 8.10?
[00:08] <nightrid3r> alpha7 its not recommended to turn off fans, your system might overheat
[00:08] <notwist> jdmnynja: you can unmount them, or rather, you have to probably, if youre gonna delete them
[00:09] <Dai_> So how can I access the windows file system under wubi install of Ubuntu
[00:09] <notwist> Dai_: /host/
[00:09] <spirited> neurobuntu: not sure how to tell if I have libdvdcss, this problems happens with new release dvds I buy.
[00:09] <jdmnynja> notwist: wouldn't unmounting them just make the liveboot CD not recognize them?
[00:09] <notwist> jdmnynja: no, you mount them because you want to use them, write/read to/from them
[00:09] <notwist> jdmnynja: if you unmount them they're still there
[00:10] <jdmnynja> notwist: but will that enable the installer to format them and install ubuntu?
[00:10] <notwist> jdmnynja: so unmount them, go into gparted and delete everything so you get a "clean" drive, and then try to install
[00:10] <notwist> jdmnynja: thats my bet
[00:10] <jdmnynja> notwist: all right, I am going to load it up and test it out. if I don't return soon it worked! thanks.
[00:10] <redvamp128> kingsley:  it is very reliable -- I have used it to change mine from time to time. It is what is used when you install nvidia-glx-XXX --(xxx=whatever version you have)
[00:10] <notwist> jdmnynja: im going to bed so good luck :)
[00:11] <Dai_> notwist you're freakin' awesome. :D I'd hug you if I could.
[00:11] <jdmnynja> notwist: thanks
[00:11] <spirited> I used the Synaptic Package Manager to install VLC: I assumed it would install eerything I needed.
[00:11] <Dai_> redvamp128, it's brandon_ and I got the thing working
[00:11] <Dai_> thanks for the help
[00:11] <notwist> Dai_: haha, no problem
[00:11] <nightrid3r> !mp3 | spirited
[00:12] <prince_jammys> spirited: you need to add the medibuntu repository to get libdvdcss
[00:12] <redvamp128> bpat1434:  Here is the link to your Libmajic Ubuntu -- Package Search Results -- libMagick++ <http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=+libMagick%2B%2B&amp;searchon=names&amp;suite=all&amp;section=all>
[00:12] <Dai_> Now if someone would like to help by telling me how to install a sound card...
[00:12] <spirited> ubottu: ok very well... let me read.
[00:12] <Dai_> particularly a creative x-fi xtremegamer.
[00:12] <prince_jammys> spirited: you have a problem playing mp3s or dvds?
[00:13] <spirited> prince: just dvds
[00:13] <bpat1434> redvamp128, I already have the libs installed (well, so aptitude says)
[00:13] <redvamp128> Dai_:  you left in a hurry but Vista uses that BCD and it is a pain sometimes.
[00:14] <spirited> prince: reading about libcss
[00:14] <Dai_> redvamp128: Yeah I know...I used BCD and went through lengths to reinstall ubuntu under wubi.
[00:14] <prince_jammys> spirited: you need to install libdvdcss2 , which you can do by adding the medibuntu repository
[00:14] <prince_jammys> !medibuntu > spirited
[00:15] <redvamp128> bpat1434:  so theoretically it should run -- but you said it was missing that particular package so I found it
[00:15] <dean> how do I use the intel framebuffer intelfb
[00:15] <spirited> thank you I am getting all this and reading.
[00:15] <dean> I tried adding video=intelfb to the grub options
[00:15] <Dai_> redvamp128: would you know how to install a creative sound card to the system?
[00:15] <awkfu> I just installed streamtuner. When I tune in to a shoutcast channel it pulls up audacious-->then nothing happens. Youtube works fine. Any ideas?
[00:16] <dean> but i get "video mode must be programmed at boot time"
[00:16] <alpha7> nightrid3r i mean other kind of fans
[00:16] <redvamp128> Dai_:  hold on I think I still have the link to the page on troubleshooting
[00:16] <bpat1434> redvamp128, well, that's what inkscape is complaining about... just wondering where it is, because locate can't find it either. but aptitude says it's installed
[00:16] <alpha7> nightrid3r i have at least 4 fans
[00:16] <kingsley> Which keys let the user step through the various desktop resolutions specified in Xwindows' configuration file?
[00:16] <redvamp128> Dai_:  lspci and let me know what card it says
[00:16] <redvamp128> bpat1434:  you could try installing from the deb file it is possible you have a lower version installed
[00:17] <bpat1434> redvamp128, I have a newer version...
[00:17] <Dai_> Creative Labs SB X-Fi redvamp128
[00:17] <bpat1434> redvamp128, 7:6.3.7.9.dfsg1-2ubuntu3
[00:18] <redvamp128> bpat1434:  it expects the earlier version-- If this were windows I could get a version lie to fix that
[00:18] <KemrinH> Okay, this may be the wrong room, but I'm in Ubuntu wanting to link my Supybot I just installed to my Pidgin. What shoud I do?
[00:18] <redvamp128> !sound | Dai_:
[00:19] <redvamp128> Dai_: if none of that works I know a few other things to try
[00:19] <Dai_> There's a linux driver available on the creative support website redvamp128
[00:20] <bpat1434> redvamp128, now it's complaining about libWand... I'm thinking this is a lost cause....
[00:20] <rsty> how do i format an external hard drive?
[00:20] <bpat1434> rsty mkfs ?
[00:21] <rsty> how?
[00:21] <rsty> if my drive is @ /media/disk
[00:21] <bpat1434> sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/sd?
[00:21] <rsty> how would i format it in mkfs
[00:21] <bpat1434> first unmount it
[00:21] <redvamp128> bpat1434:  Here is packages site -- it has a good search function -- Ubuntu -- Ubuntu Packages Search <http://packages.ubuntu.com/>  Though I can't see how apt-get didn't give you errors installing

[00:24] <nickrud_> plazia, which restarts X, by the way
[00:24] <plazia> I guess that's what I'm gonna have to do as a last resort...
[00:25] <nickrud_> plazia, you can navigate through your apps and save as needed. I've never seen a way to reset the mouse
[00:25] <plazia> nickrud, x-restart it is then :) thanks matey

[00:43] <rww> H4z3: Hardy only has 5.8, and won't be getting an official upgrade because stable releases don't get major version upgrades.

[01:04] <CaneToad> My intrepid X server works but is fairly frequently dying with a segmentation fault, and yet the stack backtrace is useless.....what's the best way to get an X server with debug symbols?
[01:04] <Crayboff> jrib, i'm not really sure what you mean. this is what was the output when I put it in terminal: http://paste.ubuntu.com/119466/
[01:04] <randommm> MindVirus: I use handbrake
[01:04] <MindVirus> randommm, handbrake?
[01:04] <Anacranom> spirited,  its in the repos so its easy to get, i think, sudo apt-get install mythtv
[01:04] <rww> CaneToad: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash
[01:05] <randommm> yes
[01:05] <MindVirus> randommm, it's not in the repos.

[01:08] <genii> spirited: The lshw is most detailed results
[01:08] <randommm> if I use the 'guided, use entire disk' option with the gui installer, how come grub is installed on a different disk? and how do I stop this?
[01:08] <spirited> redvamp128, and rww: not the command line way but is there something with a GUI that lists it all?
[01:08] <yns88> is there a way for me to have both the grub menu and the windows 7 bootloader functional?
[01:09] <spirited> Night thanks Anacranom
[01:09] <semanticpc> yns88:  why would you need two bootloaders ???
[01:09] <wolter> does ubuntu have a native file sharing service?
[01:09] <wolter> or even linux has to use samba?
[01:09] <yns88> because windows 7 won't load without its bootloader
[01:09] <yns88> and ubuntu won't load without grub
[01:09] <nightrid3r> wolter nfs
[01:09] <redvamp128> spirited:  not really none that I have found- I personally like dmesg but the lshw needs to be ran as sudo though.
[01:10] <Crayboff> anyone else know how to stop amarok from auto starting?
[01:10] <wolter> nightrid3r, oh.. could you help me with samba? my sister can't get into my server/laptop
[01:10] <yns88> Crayboff: go into system->prefs->sessions
[01:10] <yns88> it might be in there
[01:10] <nightrid3r> wolter can she see your share
[01:11] <rww> redvamp128: it doesn't /need/ to be run with sudo. it just gives you more information that way.
[01:11] <semanticpc> yns88:  does grub list windows 7 ??
[01:11] <wolter> nightrid3r, if you mean my computer, yes, but when she double-clicks my computer on her network browser, she gets an error saying that she cannot access my computer?
[01:11] <wolter> i mean .

[01:13] <ExAstris> I have a question... for some time now, and I understand this is not an uncommon problem, I have been unable to play sound through more then one application on Ubuntu at a time. It seems like whenever an app 'grabs' the sound card by playing a sound, it will not relinguish it to other apps that need it, so for example if Pidgin wants sound, Firefox can't have it, and WINE can't have it. This is quite annoying, since it's r
[01:13] <ExAstris> eally hard to find the app to close to get back sound. Any suggestions?

[01:21] <redvamp128> evon:  it appears to be that the livecd can't boot with your video (though only found that answer from a fedora forum) but if you are trying to install there is a command line option to install.
[01:21] <Dillizar> yns88, there was a window i can find all the graphic cards drivers just i want to check smt

[01:23] <hajmola> velko, no... do I need to?
[01:24] <redvamp128> evon:  Though they say download the alternate cd - burn it then boot with that and type cli - just make sure you are connected to the internet (it downloads the ubuntu files from the web) but will bypass the error you are getting.
 it did not give me an option to use command line. that same message
[01:24] <velko> hajmola, boot your guest os and don't maximize it's window. in the menu you'll find an entry "install guest additions
[01:24] <hajmola> ah, ok
[01:24] <Crayboff> jrib: i checked them, the only things i found in /usr/share/autostart/ was kab2kabc, Tracker, Wicd Network Manager Tray
[01:24] <Crayboff> jrib: there is nothing about sessions which I could find
[01:24] <redvamp128> evon:  In 2 of the fedora forums -- they say that error is that the live cd can't configure your video card to boot itself.
[01:25] <hajmola> velko, after I install guest additions, any other tricks?
[01:25] <evon> redvamp128: so when it gives me that message then type CLI?
[01:25] <meshuggah> any speech recognition software for ubuntu/debian?
[01:25] <velko> hajmola, none that i know of :-)

[01:35] <wolter> nightrid3r, yeah but, i don't know what could i have changed in mine... if i deleted the smb.conf, would samba create another one?
[01:35] <nightrid3r> wolter no it wont

[01:36] <Sw3RvE> can anyone help me install wifi radar on Xubuntu
[01:36] <jrib> Crayboff: then start renaming folders (start with ~/.gnome) and see what happens

[01:37] <daifunai> ugh, I keep getting dc'd..-.-;
[01:37] <jrib> Crayboff: we don't know where the setting is.  So rename a folder that might contain the setting and log out and back in.  If amarok doesn't start up, then you've narrowed down your search to that folder.  Understand?
[01:37] <Crayboff> jrib: yes, but wouldn't doing this potentially screw something up?
[01:38] <jrib> Crayboff: no, you'd rename it back after you test...

[01:39] <Crayboff> jrib, ah, so I should just choose random folders and rename them?

[01:46] <Crayboff> jrib: i thought i did, apparently not
[01:46] <jrib> Crayboff: ok.  Do you understand what ~ is?
[01:46] <syockit> Crayboff: in terminal it would be like " cd ~; mv .gnome .gnomeold " you know
[01:46] <Crayboff> ah
[01:46] <Crayboff> i think i get it
[01:46] <syockit> Crayboff: try going to terminal, type " cd ~ " and press tab. you'll see what jrib meant
[01:47] <sanjud> scream -> yes you may
[01:47] <SmackPotat> part ii how would i find a file anyfile if i knew it had the string *paypal.com*
[01:47] <Scunizi> scream: sure.. after boot go to synaptic and search for kernel you'll see the ones that have a lower number are the one(s) that you want to uninstall.. tag them and hit apply.. the listings in grub will automatically be removed.
[01:47] <scream> ok
[01:47] <syockit> SmackPotat: is that in the filename?
[01:47] <sanjud> SmackPotat -> judicious use of grep
[01:48] <SmackPotat> no im just guessing i have a nasty file on my system
[01:48] <SmackPotat> ok thanks
[01:48] <syockit> SmackPotat: may you can ' ps aux | less ' and look for weird processes
[01:48] <jrib> Crayboff: by the way, I probably meant ~/.gnome2
[01:49] <SmackPotat> i wouldnt know a weird process
[01:49] <Crayboff> alright, now i feel retarded. what does the results from cd ~ mean, syockit, jrib
[01:49] <SmackPotat> but ill try

[01:55] <duxbarak> hi, i installed 2 new OS's on a new second sata hard drive, but when i added them to the grub list running off ubuntu on the first hard drive, it says 'disk does not exist' when i select the new OS's on the second hard drive
[01:56] <syockit> Crayboff: err, what was the problem? I came in at ~ discussion
[01:56] <syockit> colin_s: pastebin!!!
[01:57] <kikokos> hi
[01:58] <noon> how do I tell which version my libgpod is at?
[01:58] <noon> sudo apt-get install ligbpod just says "up to date"
[01:58] <kikokos> i have a simple question :P i've just installed samba...and i really dont know how to browse catalogs on second machine by amarok
[01:58] <Crayboff> syockit: alright, i can't figure out why amarok keeps starting at boot. it only happens in this user account. there is nothing in sessions saying it should start up. so jrib suggested that I rename things ~/.gnome, which now I understand to be "/usr/boff/SOMEFILENAME.gnome", and restart my computer to see what's causing it by process of elimination i think that's everything
[01:58] <n8tuserf> duxbarak-> you may have to add them to device.map
[01:58] <syockit> noon: dpkg -l libgpod
[01:58] <dekushrub> when I use the 173 nvidia driver my computer tends to get really hot and run a bit slower, however when I us the 177 driver my computer has excessive fan noise, any suggestions?
[01:59] <duxbarak> n8tuserf-> how do i do that?
[01:59] <kikokos> i've set up smb.conf but i cannot find way for browse something
[01:59] <syockit> Crayboff: so what have you tried so far? although i really don't recommend renaming gnome for that
[01:59] <n8tuserf> duxbarak-> post your /etc/boot/menu.lst and /etc/boot/device.map
[01:59] <Crayboff> syockit, i haven't tried anything yet
[02:00] <duxbarak> n8tuserf-> here? or in pastebin?
[02:00] <n8tuserf> duxbarak-> in pastebin
[02:00] <noon> syockit: thanks :)
[02:00] <rww> Crayboff: ~/.gnome = /home/boff/.gnome/
[02:00] <Crayboff> ah ok
[02:00] <rww> assuming boff is your username
[02:00] <Crayboff> ya
[02:01] <syockit> Crayboff: do you have session save enabled?
[02:01] <rww> and you should be able to just log out and log back in; would be quicker than restarting =/
[02:01] <Crayboff> so I should be naming files such as "core.971, core.4011", etc. as ".gnome"?
[02:01] <Crayboff> syockit, no plus i always quit the app

[02:03] <mustangg> does apt provide a mechanism for reporting version of a specified package?
[02:03] <n8tuserf> duxbarak-> oops, i have to leave for now, maybe someone else can assist you
[02:03] <yuriks> Crayboff: I imagined so too, but there's nothin compiz related there (except Appearance, where I can select the three pre-defined configuration schemes)
[02:03] <Crayboff> yuriks, umm are you sure it's installed?
[02:04] <yuriks> Crayboff: yeah, I have all the effects and stuff =P (like the stupid wobbly windows I want to turn off ;)

[02:06] <kleanchap> How do you do system updates in Ubuntu?

[02:08] <assmonger> hi guys. how do make syslog start with -r when i /etc/init.d/syslog it?
[02:08] <daedra_> syockit: what did you say?
[02:08] <syockit> daedra_: sudo invoke-rc.d wicd start
[02:09] <Crayboff> syockit: umm is it a hidden file or something, cause I can't find any .gnome and I don't know how to view hidden files or do i have to be root to see it?
[02:09] <adrenalyn> How do you install Java JRE on ubuntu?
[02:09] <syockit> daedra_: then start wicd-client or something
[02:09] <assmonger> i guess /etc/default/syslogd should do it
[02:09] <syockit> Crayboff: yes it's hidden
[02:09] <duxbarak> n8tuserf-> yeah, there is no file named that
[02:09] <daedra_> syockit: what is invoke?
[02:10] <syockit> Crayboff: in terminal, you use ' ls -a ' to view hidden files as well. in file browser, pressing ctrl-h should toggle it
[02:10] <daedra_> syockit: I don't seem to have it
[02:10] <syockit> daedra_: invoke-rc.d runs the script inside /etc/init.d/
[02:10] <Crayboff> ah

[02:21] <Crayboff> jrib: didn't work, it just created another .gnome2 which doesn't have as manythings as the original .gnome2 which i renamed to .bnome2
[02:21] <duxbarak> madagascar27 : redo MBR with windows install cd, then format the partition with ubuntu
[02:21] <jspMyth> Scunizi: i have a list of all my old paritions, cant i just write them back exactly using fdisk ?
[02:22] <Crayboff> jrib: should I delete the new .gnome2 and change.bnome2 back to .gnome2?
[02:22] <Spanky> DCC SEND %*^%*&%*&^*&^*&^*&^*&
[02:22] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, well as long as you didn't hit ok, or forward to next page and it didnt write it you should be ok
[02:22] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, you might be able to reset your computer and start over...
[02:22] <jspMyth> billybigrigger: i did write it ( using the w key)
[02:22] <billybigrigger> someone correct me if im wrong ^^^^^
[02:22] <madagascar27> duxbarak: whats MBR
[02:22] <duxbarak> master boot record
[02:22] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, sorry, i didn't see your in fdisk, i assumed graphical installer
[02:22] <Peroxyde> ?DCC SEND "ff???f??????????????" 0 0 0
[02:22] <madagascar27> duxbarak: also ubuntu does not work
[02:23] <jspMyth> billybigrigger: no i was doing fdisk because gparted wont work for some reason
[02:23] <madagascar27> duxbarak: I want to delelte its name from coming up on the multiboot screen
[02:23] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, livecd installer didnt work for you?
[02:23] <jspMyth> billybigrigger: basically my hd has an empty table but all the data should still be there right ?
[02:23] <yoyoned2> jspMyth: use the gparted livecd
[02:23] <oobe> the angle on my printer is a bit off tilt does anyone know what that is called or how to fix it
[02:23] <KemrinH> Does anyone know how to get Supybot to function as a Pidgin addon? The people in Pidgin sent me to supybot, and the people in supybot ignored me
[02:24] <jspMyth> okay guys basically i have a HD with no partition table but all my data, is there any way i can get it back
[02:24] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, well, yes...data should still be there as long as the table wasnt saved/written
[02:24] <jspMyth> billybigrigger: i accidentally deleted the table and it saved too
[02:24] <Crayboff> jrib: should I? syockit? should I?
[02:24] <jrib> jspMyth: testdisk (but I must go now)
[02:24] <kleanchap> If someone answered, then I missed it.  So I will ask again, How do you do system updates in Ubuntu?
[02:24] <jspMyth> billybigrigger: i am in fdisk right now and it shows 0 partitions on the device
[02:24] <duxbarak> madagascar27: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/919529
[02:25] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, well if you deleted the table, then restart your computer, you have nothing to loose now...if on restart your data is there well then you got back more than you hoped :P
[02:25] <kleanchap> on command-line
[02:25] <jrib> Crayboff: yes, and proceed to ~/.gconf/ maybe?
[02:25] <yoyoned2> jspMyth:  if you can recreate the partition table exacty like it was, it  will work
[02:25] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, i would restart, but someone else here might have a solution
[02:25] <jrib> kleanchap: click on the red triangle in the notification area
[02:25] <KemrinH> kleanchap sudo apt-get update
[02:25] <oobe> kleanchap, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[02:25] <jspMyth> yoyoned2: what about the MFT wouldnt that be all messed up ?
[02:25] <jrib> !apt > kleanchap
[02:25] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, hard to say...im not at your computer to see how far you went so...either restart or keep asking for advice here
[02:25] <Crayboff> jrib, alright, so what I should do is 1) rename the .bnome2 to .gnome2 2) do the thing with .gnome 3) do it with .gconf   ??
[02:25] <yoyoned2> MFT?
[02:25] <exodus_ms> hmm, what is   /usr/X11R6/bin/X :0 -br -audit 0 -auth /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth -nolisten tcp vt7   it seems to eat up a lot of my cpu running at 50% sometimes
[02:26] <oobe> kleanchap, my answer was best ignore the others :P
[02:26] <jrib> Crayboff: sure.  Or do more.  We're kind of shooting in the dark here
[02:26] <jspMyth> billybigrigger: yeah i think i will try restart and see whats the deal, i have the old table information saved
[02:26] <jrib> Crayboff: maybe grep -R amarok ~/.*   is smarter
[02:26] <Crayboff> jrib: do that in the terminal?
[02:26] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, you on 2 computers? or you irc'ing on the computer that you fubar'd?
[02:27] <jspMyth> billybigrigger: only one laptop, i am IRCing off ubuntu live cd
[02:27] <jrib> Crayboff: sure, I have to go now though
[02:27] <billybigrigger> ahh
[02:27] <Crayboff> jrib: what do i do if i find the file?
[02:27] <syockit> Crayboff: if you want to do that you must not be logged in or else your old .gnome will be overwritten
[02:28] <jrib> Crayboff: depends on file
[02:28] <Crayboff> jrib: should I be doing the grep thing with sudo?
[02:28] <jrib> Crayboff: shouldn't be needed
[02:28] <Crayboff> jrib: and how long would it take?
[02:28] <luckyone> is there a way I can skip the gdm login screen and automatically login as me?
[02:28] <redvamp128> jspMyth:  Not sure how good the tools are-- but www.ultimatebootcd.com has some tools for data recovery on the cd.
[02:29] <Pricey> luckyone: system > administration > login window
[02:29] <Pricey> lycidas: look at the security tab
[02:29] <luckyone> Pricey: if I can't get there, how do I do it from the shell?
[02:29] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, well come back and let us know :P
[02:30] <exodus_ms> how can I find information on a process running in htop
[02:30] <KemrinH> Does anyone know how to get Supybot to function as a Pidgin addon? The people in Pidgin sent me to supybot, and the people in supybot ignored me
[02:31] <Crayboff> jrib: before you leave, what would grep -R amarok ~/.* tell me?
[02:31] <Pricey> KemrinH: pidgin doesn't have addons. supybot connects directly to irc, not through another program.
[02:32] <irhax4u> ?DCC SEND "ff???f?" 0 0 0
[02:32] <jspMyth> billybigrigger: it cant boot anymore, says no bootable devices found
[02:33] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, hmmm fdisk might be able to fix the mbr
[02:33] <MoTec> nuke it from orbit.. it's you're only hope.
[02:33] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, fdisk /mbr
[02:33] <MoTec> your*
[02:33] <Taylor> Hello everyone! Can anyone help me with something?
[02:33] <syockit> if not specific to ubuntu, you can try asking
[02:33] <syockit> no guarantees
[02:33] <KemrinH> Pricey Right, but I was hoping there was a way to have it connect to Pidgin and interact with anyone who messages. If that's not possible, do you know of any Pidgin based bots?
[02:34] <jspMyth> billybigrigger: it says unable to open /mbr
[02:34] <KemrinH> Taylor, please do not ask to ask a question ^_^
[02:34] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, fixmbr?
[02:34] <Pricey> KemrinH: you want a bot to connect to a network like aim?
[02:34] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, sorry havent had to do this in a few years, cant remember the command
[02:34] <jspMyth> billy that wont work
[02:35] <Taylor> Okay. thanks. Well I have an _OLD_ PC that had windows 98 on it. I wiped that. So now I just have a PC lying around. I would like to install ubuntu, howerver; I cant put from CD(no cd BIOS support) Is there some type of 'boot disk' I can use?
[02:35] <jspMyth> you need to specify a partition where u fix the boot record
[02:35] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, your positive fdisk /mbr doesnt work?
[02:35] <jspMyth> yeah
[02:35] <jspMyth> i think ill just write a new table with the old settings
[02:35] <KemrinH> Pricey Basically I want a bot that doesn't connect to any network, but just deals with the messages Pidgin gets, independent of network
[02:36] <billybigrigger> jspMyth,
[02:36] <Crayboff> jrib: ok it finished, what do i do with this?
[02:36] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, http://www.arsgeek.com/2008/01/15/how-to-fix-your-windows-mbr-with-an-ubuntu-livecd/
[02:36] <Pricey> KemrinH: probably against their ToS. I'd check that out first.
[02:36] <ellarea> I did ls -l on a directory and found some files were having this permission: -rw-------@
[02:36] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, fix your mbr with your live cd
[02:36] <Aquina> I stated a question in #xubuntu but didn't receive much input so I repeat it in here. Hopefully some experts in here can help me with it...
[02:36] <ellarea> I did ls -l on a directory and found some files were having this permission: -rw-------@, why is there a @ in the end, how do I remove it?
[02:36] <Aquina> "A general question about "sysv-rc-conf". It's more or less for usage with Red Hat systems but also widely used on Debian/Ubuntu. What do you think about it (also in comparison with BUM and the default XFCE service control)?"
[02:36] <KemrinH> Pricey But one that works on AIM and YAHOO would do if oyu know of one... Against who's terms of service?
[02:36] <KemrinH> Pricey Pidgins?
[02:36] <elementz> my system starts to act really strange. it suddenly freezes, and won't accept any user input anymore! only thing i can do is hit the powerswitch.
[02:36] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, its a short simple tutorial by the looks of it, 3 or 4 commands maybe
[02:36] <Pricey> KemrinH: I'd guess connecting automated bot things could easily be against yahoo or aim's ToS.
[02:37] <syockit> Aquina: umm can you bring those to offtopic
[02:37] <jspMyth> billybigrigger: that wont work unless i create partition
[02:38] <KemrinH> Pricey Maybe... not sure. I don't really care though considering the volume of bots they already have swarming their networks harassing people. I just want something to respond when people message me but I'm away, in a way slightly more in depth than an Autoreply
[02:38] <elementz> now, which logs should i check? under /var/log/messages ? or which will be the one that could help me? and what should i grep for? already grepped for 'error' but nothing really found under any logfile
[02:38] <jspMyth> billybigrigger: currently the disk has no partition table, it looks as if it has 100gb of free space
[02:38] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, ahh
[02:38] <kholerabbi> I've had this problem for a version of ubuntu or two but I've just sort of ignored it. So it's not so important but any help would be aprreciated.. Basically my volume/sound bar only goes on full and completely unfull and just wavers back and forth as you drag it until you let it go whence it goes straight to full..??
[02:38] <KemrinH> Something I could just program to send X message when Y message is received
[02:38] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, well create a new table with the same settings as your old one? maybe data's there?
[02:38] <Crayboff> jrib: i'm going to try more of the renaming stuff
[02:38] <billybigrigger> jspMyth, i dont know what to tell you anymore
[02:39] <Aquina> syockit, I don't know "where" offtopic is, but I have a general Problem with administrating my services on my Ubuntu server and Xubuntu clients. This is a support request.

[02:49] <KemrinH> Sorry
[02:49] <meshuggah> ask dammit
[02:49] <jspMyth> PhillipA: no accidentally deleted whole table :(
[02:49] <KemrinH> I was twinking the config and I guess I didn't twink hard enough
[02:50] <jspMyth> PhillipA: i think i got something to, its called TESTDISK
[02:50] <syockit> KemrinH: *tweak
[02:50] <KemrinH> syockit Yes.
[02:50] <shoterboyx> ok......when i m using VM to try ubuntu....i press try ubuntu and when it when to a black screen, lots of sentence came out and the last line end like this end trace 4eaa2a86a8e2da22
[02:50] <KemrinH> I thought it might end up here so I came back in case it did.
[02:50] <PhillipA> mmm... a rescue disk and, say, fdisk if you are really awesome or maybe even DOS "fdisk /mbr" should do
[02:50] <meshuggah> shoterboyx, dont try ubuntu this way
[02:50] <KemrinH> But it wasn't supposed to, if it'd worked like I hoped
[02:50] <_VIM_> twinking? you must play Anarchy Online
[02:50] <Scunizi> shoterboyx: which vm?
[02:50] <shoterboyx> then how should i try?
[02:51] <meshuggah> shoterboyx, partition your hd give it 10 gig
[02:51] <shoterboyx> window virtual pc 2007
[02:51] <char00les> hello
[02:51] <meshuggah> shoterboyx, and install ubuntu this way
[02:51] <fearful> shorterboyx: Run it on the LiveCD and just click test
[02:51] <meshuggah> shoterboyx, it is the better
[02:51] <shoterboyx> will i still get the end trace error?
[02:51] <Scunizi> shoterboyx: arg.. you could probably do it easy in virtual box or vmware server .. but not win virt pc
[02:51] <syockit> meshuggah: he wantsto try first
[02:51] <redvamp128> shoterboyx:  If you want to try is as a vm you should probably use the alternate cd for the install (I have heard success with that using MSVPC) you just let it boot type cli and ubuntu should install.
[02:52] <jspMyth> PhillipA: testdisk recognized all my deleted partitions and i wrote them back, time to try a boot :)
[02:52] <KemrinH> Cross your fingers, it might be about to appear again...
[02:52] <PhillipA> jspMyth: ok, glad it apparently worked :D
[02:52] <redvamp128> shoterboyx:  and also give it 256mb and 6gig drive
[02:52] <Scunizi> shoterboyx: just boot to the live cd.. it won't effect your HD.. little slow that way but it works.
[02:52] <meshuggah> syockit, it is this way i tried ubuntu
[02:52] <KemrinH> Fucl
[02:52] <shoterboyx> redvamp123: i not very sure what u are talking about can u say more clearly pls??
[02:52] <_VIM_> !u | shoterboyx

[02:53] <dbansal> hello, does anyone here have experience with wmii or xmonad?

[02:55] <syockit> meshuggah: well, that's how I got to ubuntu, but musn't assume everyone's daredevil
[02:55] <Guest27139> Wow, it's packed in here.
[02:55] <Guest27139> Anyway, one of my moniters is cracked...
[02:56] <jspMyth> PhillipA: So ubuntu is recognizing all my partitions now all the data is there too, but i cant boot windows, it says BOOTMGR is missing
[02:56] <Guest27139> I can only see part of the top, so it was hard getting here.
[02:56] <cyberjorge> hi there, any recommendation for good image backup for ubuntu?
[02:56] <hlm> how do I remove a startup script from init.d?
[02:56] <meshuggah> anyone know a speech recognition software for linux or an old viavoice somewhere
[02:56] <jspMyth> PhillipA: bad part is that i dont have a windows CD ( and also i was using windows 7)
[02:56] <cyberjorge> i am thinking, acronis true image
[02:56] <soreau> Guest27139: Which video driver are you using?
[02:56] <eltopo> Hello
[02:56] <_VIM_> cyberjorge: try clonezilla
[02:56] <Guest27139> ??
[02:56] <PhillipA> jspMyth: stand by
[02:56] <Guest27139> Wait...
[02:57] <meshuggah> 372 on debian channel / 1326 on ubuntu
[02:57] <somebodywhoneeds> Okay...
[02:57] <_VIM_> cyberjorge: or maybe fog. although i have not tried that one yet...
[02:57] <somebodywhoneeds> I don't know what video drivers have to do with this but....
[02:57] <cyberjorge> thanks _VIM_ is this something that you install and boot with ubuntu with option to sechdule?
[02:57] <somebodywhoneeds> Okay...
[02:58] <PhillipA> jspMyth: try to get your hands on a dos boot floppy, i can't seem to find an image online
[02:58] <Jax24> Hey everyone... just got a Dell netbook running Heron... and I can't get the switch users function to work, if I try to switch users it just goes to a black screen and then a password prompt for the last person using the computer?
[02:58] <redvamp128> PhillipA:  www.bootdisk.com
[02:58] <somebodywhoneeds> I've got two moniters, one that's cracked and one that's working ine
[02:58] <cyberjorge> _VIM_: which works best? i'm kinda out of time to test which works
[02:58] <somebodywhoneeds> *fine
[02:58] <PhillipA> jspMyth: then try to get a modern version of MS fdisk
[02:58] <dbansal> hello, does anyone here have experience with wmii or xmonad?
[02:58] <PhillipA> jspMyth: someone told me bootdisk.com
[02:58] <_VIM_> cyberjorge clonzilla is a live CD if im not mistaking
[02:58] <somebodywhoneeds> My computer doesn't support the one that's working fine... but I can plug that moniter in the one that's broken.
[02:59] <_VIM_> or it's own distro
[02:59] <hlm> how do I remove something I added with update-rc.d?
[02:59] <_VIM_> it's not part of ubuntu
[02:59] <somebodywhoneeds> So I just need to switch moniters...
[02:59] <cyberjorge> i understand, just asking how it works..
[02:59] <somebodywhoneeds> How do I do that?
[02:59] <PhillipA> hlm: update-rc.d -f [name] remove
[02:59] <somebodywhoneeds> Anybody?
[02:59] <_VIM_> cyberjorge: well like i said, i have have not tried fog yet,,, so you get to be the test rat ;)
[02:59] <hlm> thankyou PhillipA
[02:59] <_VIM_> let me know how it goes lol
[03:00] <cyberjorge> hmmm... ok
[03:00] <PhillipA> so, anybody have blender installed on their ubuntu system?
[03:00] <soreau> somebodywhoneeds: You're rambling. You've already stated your problem. Depending on which graphics driver you use there are different ways to switch monitors. Now again, which graphics driver are you using?
[03:00] <cyberjorge> but i don't wanna risk my backup, i'll probably go for a more used one
[03:00] <Crayboff> *sigh* jrib, syockit, changing those three didn't work
[03:00] <jspMyth> PhillipA: someone on #windows suggested i install ubuntu and hope that grub will pick up the win7 loader
[03:00] <Xeo> how do i change the menu bar color for the active window?
[03:00] <syockit> Crayboff: changing what? let me check logs
[03:01] <PhillipA> jspMyth: "pick up?"
[03:01] <_2> jspMyth you use linux ?
[03:01] <fearful> I wanted to remove xubuntu-desktop I did sudo apt-get purge xubuntu-desktop but there is still some apps that where installed that stayed in my GNOME menus how can I remove them?
[03:01] <jspMyth> PhillipA: normally if u install windows 7 and install grub it will let you load the windows 7 boot loader from grub
[03:01] <somebodywhoneeds> ???
[03:01] <jspMyth> _2:  i am using ubuntu live cd, trying to recover my win7 installation
[03:01] <cyberjorge> _VIM_: with clonezilla, are you able to migrate a complete image to different with minimal hardware changes, say harddisk and some components but same board?
[03:02] <PhillipA> jspMyth: but that's assuming it's on the windows partition in the first place
[03:02] <PhillipA> if it *can't find* it you might need to restore it
[03:02] <_2> jspMyth you don't have to install linux to use grub.  you should look into the "super_grub_cd"
[03:02] <_VIM_> cyberjorge: yeah, Clonezilla can be dangerous..as I'm sure the others can be too, if not handled with care... Now if you just want a backup of stuff without an image, try sbackup
[03:02] <syockit> Crayboff: umm what did you do? you renamed your .gnome, huh?
[03:02] <_2> jspMyth just web search those three words.
[03:03] <fearful> How can I remove the xubuntu apps that were installed, like 'xfce4 app finder'
[03:03] <cyberjorge> no _VIM_ i need a full image backup of os and settings so i won't have to reinstall over and over again
[03:03] <komo> hi, how can i get in a greek chat?
[03:03] <_VIM_> yeah Clonezilla then

[03:04] <nightrid3r> !gr | komo
[03:04] <_2> jspMyth you can use that to install grub,   just select a safe place for the stage# files  and install grub normally
[03:04] <Crayboff> syockit: i renamed .gnome, .gnome2, .gconf
[03:04] <fearful> _2: How about for xfce4 thats KDE
[03:05] <syockit> Crayboff: that was outside gnome when you did it?
[03:05] <_2> fearful not sure.  is there not a link on the page ?   i thought it had a link for other flavours
[03:05] <_VIM_> cyberjorge: sorry to just throw websites at you from ubottu but, at least that way you'll actually accomplish the task... :)
[03:05] <Crayboff> syockit: what do you mean by that?
[03:05] <komo> #ubuntu-gr
[03:05] <syockit> Crayboff: were you logged in?
[03:05] <Crayboff> syockit: yes

[03:06] <nightrid3r> komo /join #ubuntu-gr
[03:06] <syockit> Crayboff: if you do from desktop, rename .gnome, log out, it will create new .gnome automatically
[03:06] <syockit> Crayboff: that's why I didn't recommend renaming gnome
[03:06] <PhillipA> jspMyth: it's "fdisk /mbr" it will erase grub but will restore the win boot image
[03:06] <komo> ths
[03:06] <logan34234> does anyone know of any music handling programs for mp3 players? Like it will let me manage my collection, decide what gets put on my mp3 player, automatically get album covers/correct tag data?
[03:06] <chupy> i have a simple question de envyng nvidia drivers are the privative drivers??? and the best or latest?
[03:06] <Crayboff> syockit: ya figured that out, well oops. i deleted the new .gnome and replaced it with the original
[03:06] <syockit> Crayboff: try adding a user, log in as that user and see if it affects the new user or not
[03:06] <chupy> * i have a simple question the envyng nvidia drivers are the privative drivers??? and the best or latest?
[03:06] <cyberjorge> _VIM_: no problem at all, i'm learning from, i don't know actually there's a command to make a complete image untill you threw me there.. LOL :D

[03:06] <fearful> _2: Nothing for xfce4.
[03:07] <Crayboff> syockit: why would that do anything differently?
[03:07] <syockit> Crayboff: or if you know how to start/stop gdm, you can try that rename thing again
[03:07] <_VIM_> cyberjorge: haha well let me know how it goes :)
[03:07] <bartek> Hi there, I have a bash script I want to install and the install instructions say "source into .bashrc under line [...]" what does it mean to source something into .bashrc ? Never heard this phrase before. Something tells me it means COPY AND PASTE though :)
[03:07] <_2> fearful you can wildcard apt   something like  "sudo apt-get remove 'xfce*'"  but that wont really get everything.  it will generate a nice list though.
[03:07] <josh__> Hey Gang. I need a wireless guru. Got an AR242x card in this laptop that just refuses to play well with others. Who should I 'ping' for help?
[03:07] <syockit> Crayboff: no, it's just to confirm whether amarok only affects you or other users as well
[03:07] <Crayboff> syockit: amarok doesn't auto start in a new user, if that's what your asking and i don't know what start/stop gdm is
[03:07] <logan34234> Does anyone know any linux programs for managing my music collection and moving files to an mp3 player?
[03:07] <_2> fearful or even "xf*"
[03:07] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: what have you done to get the device working?
[03:08] <syockit> Crayboff: okay, so it only affects you...
[03:08] <cyberjorge> _VIM_: sure buddy! anyway have an idea for a software to make an ubuntu machine act as a wifi server where you can generate accounts for a user then expire at a given time or at logout
[03:08] <jspMyth> anyone know a linux program that can write the VISTA MBR ?
[03:08] <josh__> IndyGunFreak, installed, booted, updated, iwlist s & iwconfig    no devices other then eth0 are showing att  (8.04)
[03:09] <kitche> jspMyth: no linux program can
[03:09] <fearful> _2: Nice thanks, didn't know you can wildcard apt-get :p
[03:09] <syockit> Crayboff: this is amarok 1/2? does amarok have its own "Launch at start up" option in its preference?
[03:09] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: 32 or 64bit?
[03:09] <nightrid3r> cyberjorge wifidog ?
[03:09] <josh__> IndyGunFreak, 32bit
[03:09] <jspMyth> kitche: are you sure, i found a couple that can write the winXP MBR, but not vista
[03:09] <_VIM_> cyberjorge: hmm no sorry
[03:09] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: are you on it now?. like does it have non-wireless internet access?
[03:09] <logan34234> does anyone know of any programs for managing my music collection on linux?
[03:09] <_2> fearful you should really look into deborphan  and debfoster too.   they really help with things like that.
[03:10] <cyberjorge> hmmm.. nightrid3r let me try that
[03:10] <cyberjorge> thanks guys for the help
[03:10] <nightrid3r> logan34234 amarok

[03:10] <Crayboff> syockit, i looked through it's preferences and can't find anything of the sort. i looked a couple times. is it possible i missed it, ya i guess. it's v1.4.1
[03:10] <josh__> IndyGunFreak, yes sir. running via wired eth now. IndyGunFreak and you can talk at almost any level with me. i've been playing with comps and *nix for a bit now.

[03:12] <logan34234> A Sandisk Sansa Fuze
[03:12] <IndyGunFreak> audacious
[03:12] <logan34234> it claims to be linux compatible, on the box
[03:12] <carbine> Anyone here good with intel graphics in Ubuntu?
[03:12] <logan34234> also research showed it to be the most linux compatible
[03:12] <syockit> Crayboff: this is a wild guess but: does .kde exist?
[03:12] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: are you using 8.10?..
[03:12] <Scunizi> logan34234: I have a Sansa 2 or something like that and amorak and rhythmbox work
[03:12] <josh__> IndyGunFreak, negative. 8.04

[03:13] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: you can... its just kind of a pain
[03:13] <syockit> Crayboff: wow thats curious. check .kde/Autostart (if I remember correctly)
[03:13] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: i do no, ndiswrapper won't work,
[03:13] <IndyGunFreak> *know
[03:14] <josh__> IndyGunFreak, fire the links over, please.
[03:14] <jbuncher> Is anyone in here with intel wireless having trouble accessing hidden SSID networks with hardy kernel 2.6.24-23?
[03:14] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: problem is, most of the links are dead, it requires a patched version of madwifi, for 8.04.. lemme see if i still have the files saved
[03:14] <Crayboff> syockit: you're talking about ~/.kde/ right?
[03:14] <ladiesman264> s
[03:14] <syockit> Crayboff: yes
[03:15] <ladiesman264> so where are all the chicks
[03:15] <Crayboff> syockit: the only files in it are cache-boff-laptop, share, socket-boff-laptop, and tmp-boff-laptop
[03:15] <josh__> IndyGunFreak, no. no ndiswrapper. if that is the case, i'll get xubuntu (8.10) and use it.  The only reason I'm not on 8.10 now is the KDE kha-kha.

[03:15] <josh__> IndyGunFreak, cool. tanx, dawg. I'm gonna step out and take a puff. Back in three.
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: ok, i'll try to find these files and see if i can help you wiht it.

[03:16] <josh__> IndyGunFreak, we will NOT have that conversation. (imo:  the only place for any Gnome is on the front lawn of a rich dudes house).

[03:18] <PhillipA> adrenalyn: sun-java6-plugin
[03:18] <josh__> IndyGunFreak, change of direction for a bit....    Is there anyway to update to 8.10 and KEEP KDE3.x ?
[03:18] <adrenalyn> can i get that thru Add/Remove?
[03:18] <Scunizi> adrenalyn: give it a little time.. if they know the answer they'll get back to you..
[03:18] <adrenalyn> or should i install thru terminal or something?
[03:18] <PhillipA> no, go to Synaptic Package Manager
[03:18] <Crayboff> ^syockit
[03:18] <josh__> IndyGunFreak, I don't mind updating, if I can keep a WORKING copy of KDE on here.
[03:18] <adrenalyn> how do i get to that?
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> josh__: honestly, i dont' know... but i have the files you need for 8.04.. if you want to join me in #indygunfreak  i';ll rapidshare them to you and tell you how to do it.
[03:18] <PhillipA> or just type sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[03:19] <adrenalyn> kk
[03:19] <syockit> Crayboff: hold on I'm trying to recall...
[03:21] <megaJuice> anyone know anything about graphic drivers?
[03:21] <syockit> Crayboff: wow, it's already almost 2 hours you're on this. btw what was the result of that find thing?
[03:21] <fearful> _2: debophran had a lot of list that I didn't know whether to keep or remove so I just stuck with the xfce* wildcard I don't think it removed all but it helped thanks again.
[03:21] <Crayboff> syockit, what find thing?
[03:21] <grkblood13> hey, any1 know of a web browser based remote hosting site?
[03:21] <grkblood13> so some1 can see what im doing to their computer reomotely
[03:21] <spideyman> megaJuice im dealing with mine allday ATI
[03:21] <PhillipA> !vnc | grkblood13
[03:22] <Crayboff> oh the grep? syockit, didn't pastebin it o_O
[03:22] <grkblood13> PhillipA, i want to use something web broswer based
[03:22] <grkblood13> im going to be connecting to a windows box from ubuntu
[03:23] <genii> grkblood13: So if I understand: They are not near their computer but wish to visit a website whre they can see their desktop and what you are currently doing to it as you are remotely logged in from some third location?
[03:23] <Scunizi> grkblood13: vnc works fine.. and the other will be able to watch.. windows typically had RDP installed already and you just hook to it.
[03:23] <Crayboff> syockit: would you like me to do it again?
[03:23] <megaJuice> spideyman: I tried to install an ATI card, but gave up and am trying to go back to my original "Generic Driver". But I didn't back it up, and now I think I'm screwed.
[03:23] <jbuncher> anyone know what the sudo update is about in hardy?
[03:24] <syockit> Crayboff: yes i do, but I'd like the grep to be case-insensitive
[03:24] <grkblood13> i want to log in to their box remotely but i still want them to be able to see what im doign to their pc
[03:24] <spideyman> megaJuice give me a sec ill get you a link
[03:24] <grkblood13> so i would log in through a web browser
[03:24] <syockit> Crayboff: add -i flag to grep when you do it
[03:24] <Crayboff> ya just figured that
[03:24] <grkblood13> and they would see that mouse move
[03:24] <megaJuice> spideyman: awesome, thank you
[03:24] <Crayboff> i installed the pastebinit command, how do i use that again?
[03:25] <crh0872> grkblood13 are you talking about VNC?
[03:25] <PhillipA> try http://danielwebb.us/software/vnc/
[03:25] <grkblood13> im not toalkign about anythign specific
[03:25] <crh0872> sounds like you want VNC though
[03:25] <sebsebseb> grkblood13: I just joined,  you want someone to remote connect your computer?
[03:26] <syockit> Crayboff: pastebinit <filename>
[03:26] <spideyman> megajuice http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Intrepid_Installation_Guide#Installation_Guide_for_Ubuntu_Intrepid_.28v_8.10.29
[03:26] <grkblood13> no
[03:26] <Crayboff> well that doesn't help here, does it, syockit
[03:26] <Crayboff> ?
[03:26] <grkblood13> i want to remote connect to theirs
[03:26] <syockit> Crayboff: if it's something that outputs to standard output, <process> | pastebinit
[03:26] <grkblood13> through a web browser
[03:26] <grkblood13> i know hteres a prog that does it
[03:27] <Crayboff> syockit: i did that, but it got pissy at me
[03:27] <grkblood13> i jsut cant remember it
[03:27] <megaJuice> spideyman: I'm looking at it now
[03:27] <sebsebseb> PhillipA: Java VNC's yeah.  I tunnel  VNC properly over SSH :)
[03:27] <Crayboff> syockit: so i just ran grep -R amarok ~/.* -i and will copy paste it in if i can
[03:27] <genii> grkblood13: If they are in front of their computer when you use a program like VNC or FreeNX or RDP or whatever, they will see you moving the mouse. You won't need some intermediate webpage thing
[03:27] <syockit> Crayboff: no, output to file
[03:27] <grkblood13> do they need to install anything?
[03:27] <spideyman> megajuice im finally tripple booting on a 32" lcd sweet
[03:27] <syockit> Crayboff: grep -R amarok ~/.* -i > result.file
[03:28] <sebsebseb> grkblood13: you want someone to remote connect your computer?
[03:28] <PhillipA> grkblood13: just the vnc client, which is trivial to install, there are even java applets for it
[03:28] <syockit> Crayboff: that'll give you the file, and also pastebinit result.file afterwards
[03:28] <sebsebseb> PhillipA: VNC on it's own is not secure
[03:28] <genii> grkblood13: VNC does have a java based interface on the hosting machine, it's likely what you are thinking of
[03:28] <Crayboff> syockit: is that the exact command? and where will it be saved to? do i have to specify it?
[03:28] <PhillipA> sebsebseb: i don't think he's worried about security
[03:28] <jspMyth> PhillipA: if i run bootsect.exe -fixmbr in wine do you think that will work ?
[03:29] <sebsebseb> PhillipA: well  now days if I vnc someone,  I will make sure I do it securely
[03:29] <sebsebseb> and that's been a while
[03:29] <jspMyth> or does wine does wine do everything virtually ?
[03:29] <PhillipA> jspMyth: ooh, wine, wouldn't try that... linux will restrict you from accessing the mbr
[03:29] <PhillipA> otherwise linux would be vulnerable to the simplest mbr worm
[03:29] <sebsebseb> jspMyth: yeah  that won't work
[03:29] <jspMyth> PhillipA: thought so, i guess i am gonna go try and find a vista bootable dvd
[03:30] <jspMyth> PhillipA: thanks for the help
[03:30] <jbuncher> jspMyth:  what is the issue?
[03:30] <PhillipA> jspMyth: no problem
[03:30] <sebsebseb> jspMyth: you can probably fix without the DVD
[03:30] <jspMyth> jbuncher: need to fix the vista bootloader without a DVD
[03:30] <jspMyth> jbuncher: all i have is ubuntu on flash drive
[03:30] <sebsebseb> jspMyth: you can fix wtih out DVD I am pretty sure
[03:30] <sebsebseb> what was the  program called hummmmm
[03:31] <jspMyth> sebsebseb: has to be a linux program, i know easyBCD does it but thats for windows only
[03:31] <megaJuice> spideyman: yeah i've looked at that probably 100 times. I need to get the driver for my generic card that I have.
[03:31] <jbuncher> jspMyth:  what is wrong with the vista bootloader?
[03:31] <syockit> Crayboff: grep -iR amarok ~/.* > result.file ; pastebinit result.file
[03:31] <grkblood13> ok, i think im looking for something similiar to gotomypc.com
[03:32] <sebsebseb> jspMyth: yep  easyBCD I was thinking of
[03:32] <spideyman> megajuice worked for my onboard ati
[03:32] <jspMyth> jbuncher: i think it was overwritten when i recovered my deleted partitions with testdisk
[03:32] <sebsebseb> grkblood13: showmypc.com
[03:32] <grkblood13> thats it!
[03:32] <grkblood13> thank you
[03:32] <sebsebseb> grkblood13: fine if your remote connecting someone on Windows,  once they have the program for it,  but  Linux  I don't know about that
[03:32] <Crayboff> alright, its put in the terminal and going, syockit
[03:32] <jspMyth> sebsebseb: yeah what i need is a linux version of easyBCD
[03:32] <sebsebseb> grkblood13: I think maybe Linux can only view other computers with that
[03:32] <megaJuice> spideyman: yeah I tried to install it, it didn't work, I got pissed off, and I put my old card back in.
[03:33] <jbuncher> jspMyth: ah ok.  Sorry, I don't think I can help.  Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions though.
[03:33] <redvamp128> PhillipA:  do you think this will work for him? Windows Vista Recovery Disc Download — The NeoSmart Files <http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/>
[03:33] <spideyman> megajuice I know the feeling
[03:33] <sebsebseb> grkblood13: what do you want to do with remote connecting software?
[03:33] <grkblood13> :( maybe that wasnt it
[03:33] <jspMyth> jbuncher: no problem, well off to find a vista dvd :)
[03:33] <PhillipA> redvamp128: if it is genuine microsoft, it should work for him
[03:33] <grkblood13> the service i was thinking of is free
[03:33] <megaJuice> spideyman: what card do you have?
[03:33] <spideyman> megajuice it took me all day to get my 32" lcd working
[03:33] <sebsebseb> grkblood13: that one is free
[03:34] <spideyman> megajuice onboard radeon express 200 nothing fancy
[03:34] <sebsebseb> grkblood13: setting up your own VNC server that is  encrypted, becasue it uses SSH, is not that hard really
[03:34] <sebsebseb> grkblood13: then  people can securely remote connect you, or you securely remote connect them
[03:34] <idris> hi do any of u know what i can use as a msn on ubuntu
[03:34] <megaJuice> spideyman: I've been trying for 3 days. I have a Radeon 9550
[03:34] <sebsebseb> idris: of course you got a few options
[03:35] <tom243> so what programs aren't taken over by Big brother?
[03:35] <sebsebseb> idris: Pidgin  is  the default for instant messaging networks and IRC, but that lacks features for MSN,  and so you will want to get these
[03:35] <ubuntu_> help, my hard disk suddenly thinks its full
[03:35] <ubuntu_> but its not
[03:35] <sebsebseb> idris: AMSN and Kmess
[03:35] <tom243> and how do I remove programs that are?
[03:35] <spideyman> megajuice its not easy brother but i think i seen something about your card on that site
[03:35] <idris> thank u all
[03:35] <sebsebseb> idris: also there's a  program called Mercury Messenger that uses Java,  and  can be good depends,  that you might want to try out later on
[03:36] <megaJuice> spideyman: probably, I'm gonna keep looking
[03:36] <sebsebseb> idris: ,but  AMSN or Kmess should be fine
[03:36] <idris> can i download amsn from mozilla firefox
[03:36] <spideyman> megajuice ATI is a bitch in IBEX
[03:36] <sebsebseb> idris:  yes, but  you  can install programs like that much easier in Ubuntu
[03:36] <idris> how
[03:37] <O__o> hi how come i have invalid hostname message when bootup ubuntu ?
[03:37] <spideyman> megajuice are you 32 or 64 bit
[03:37] <sebsebseb> idris: either use the  Synaptic package manager,  or open the terminal and run:   sudo apt-get install amsn kmess
[03:37] <megaJuice> spideyman: 32
[03:37] <redvamp128> idris:  why not use apt-get or synaptic package manger?
[03:37] <idris> how can i open it from run where do i click
[03:37] <spideyman> megajuice im 64 I had to install the 32 first
[03:37] <red__> happy days
[03:37] <this_justy_guy> O__o: Is this when you get to Gnome?  (The Graphical part)
[03:38] <sebsebseb> idris: the terminal is the quickest option
[03:38] <genii> O__o: Probably you tried to set a name with some illegal character in it like a space, or !@#$%^&*()   or so on
[03:38] <idris> how do i do it
[03:38] <O__o> i use O_o as hostname
[03:38] <sebsebseb> idris: applications assessories terminal
[03:38] <Scunizi> O__o: your /etc/hosts might not have 127.0.0.1   localhost .. listed
[03:38] <O__o> maybe "_" not valid?
[03:38] <Troy1> hello
[03:38] <genii> O__o: That would be my first guess
[03:38] <this_justy_guy> That's it.  The _ is invalid
[03:38] <idris> then what
[03:39] <O__o> so is there any damage?
[03:39] <underdog7> can someone tell me why i cannot install KPDF in ubuntu?  it doesn't appear in the repositories anywhere.
[03:39] <O__o> if i use O_o?
[03:39] <sebsebseb> idris:  run this command:  sudo apt-get install amsn kmess
[03:39] <genii> O__o: Use a dash instead of an underbar
[03:39] <Scunizi> underdog7: do you want a pdf reader? or editor?
[03:39] <this_justy_guy> O__o: You hostname has to be a valid hostname (ie in the sense of domain names.)
[03:40] <underdog7> Scunizi, i would like a good reader -- it seems the consensus is KPDF.  do you disagree?
[03:40] <Adman65> Hey
[03:40] <ma> hi
[03:40] <idris> i cant how plz help
[03:40] <Adman65> anyway to use podcast links that link to the itunes store?
[03:40] <O__o> so _ = invalid, what else?
[03:40] <fearful> underdog7: Why don't you use adobe's reader
[03:40] <Scunizi> underdog7: I use evince all the time. and for editing pdfedit.. I'm not really sure what consitiutes a "good" reader
[03:40] <sebsebseb> idris: ok hang on
[03:41] <idris> k
[03:41] <sebsebseb> idris:  i'll private message you
[03:41] <idris> ok

[03:41] <O__o> this_justy_guy, thx :)
[03:41] <inertial> anyone use vinagre much? is there any way to make it not disconnect other people when you connect?
[03:41] <sebsebseb> hlm:  by closing it or  killall programname or xkill and then click on that program
[03:41] <fearful> Scunizi: If you can hold it it does the job pretty well :p
[03:41] <ma> what kind of name is that?
[03:41] <sebsebseb> ma: what kind of name is ma?
[03:41] <underdog7> Scunizi, i definitely don't want evince -- kpdf is better.  can you tell me how to install kpdf on ubuntu?
[03:41] <ma> sebsebseb
[03:41] <ma> is what language?
[03:42] <sebsebseb> ma:  could have had a better name, but  I have used that one for  years
[03:42] <sebsebseb> ma:  my name is Sebastian and so Seb is the knickname
[03:42] <Scunizi> underdog7: if it's available sudo apt-get install kpdf.. but I"m curious.. what makes kpdf better?
[03:42] <hlm> sebsebseb, I dont think you understand, its a WUI client
[03:42] <Crayboff> syockit: status update: grep seems to have stalled at "grep: /home/boff/./.dbus: Permission denied"
[03:42] <O__o> so to modify hostname where do i do that i forgot
[03:42] <sebsebseb> hlm: a what client?
[03:42] <hlm> web user interface
[03:42] <spideyman> megajuice this is probably stupid but have you tried that envy program
[03:42] <O__o> i have to modify 2 files right?
[03:43] <sebsebseb> hlm: didn't know that? got a link??
[03:43] <rww> !hostname | O__o
[03:43] <redvamp128> kpdf I think he has to enable multiverse before it will show up in synaptic
[03:43] <jbuncher> underdog7:  I can't say I use kpdf that much, but I like the font rendering in evince a lot better (though I think it's not as nice for loading ebooks and such)
[03:43] <syockit> Crayboff: i don't think it stalled
[03:43] <hlm> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_user_interface
[03:43] <ma> seb means - humankind
[03:43] <syockit> Crayboff: it's just telling you one of the files failed to be grepped
[03:43] <hlm> sebsebseb, its metasploit im trying to end
[03:43] <Scunizi> jbuncher: underdog7 how 'bout xpdf?
[03:43] <sebsebseb> hlm: what?
[03:44] <chupy> can anyone help me to search for 32 bit original nvidia driver for GeForce 7150M / nForce 630M for linux in the official we page aren provided
[03:44] <syockit> Crayboff: until you get the prompt again, stay tuned
[03:44] <redvamp128> underdog7:  I think before it will show up- you have to goto software sources and enable the multiverse.
[03:44] <sebsebseb> idris: see my pm.    there should be another tab in your irc program that opended up with my name, click on it
[03:44] <hlm> sebsebseb, im trying to end msfweb (metasploit framework WUI)
[03:44] <Scunizi> chupy: you want to download the latest for that card?
[03:44] <NFischer> HI evrbdy.. how do i record the wav audio out?
[03:44] <chupy> yes the official to compile it
[03:44] <O__o> hostname orz doesnt change it
[03:44] <O__o> why's that?
[03:45] <Scunizi> chupy: hang on..
[03:45] <hlm> how do I end a program that was opened in a terminal, that has no GUI?
[03:45] <Crayboff> alright, syockit
[03:45] <chupy> Scunizi: ok thanks---
[03:45] <O__o> is it because my original hostname isnt valid therefore hostname command doesnt work?
[03:45] <redvamp128> hlm:  goto system- administration- system monitor- then process tab and find it in the list-- then right click choose kill task
[03:45] <NFischer> hlm ctrl+c
[03:45] <Crayboff> syockit: just that it's been staying there for quite some time now, is why i bring it up
[03:45] <hlm> redvamp128, its not in the list
[03:46] <hlm> NFischer, I closed the window on accident :-(
[03:46] <redvamp128> what application? hlm
[03:46] <fserve> does that radio work on audacious or xmms? http://mauro.yi.org:8000/listen.pls

[03:48] <syockit> Crayboff: hmm, probably grepping the whole thing was a bad idea? btw, can you open another terminal? and do: tail -F result.file
[03:48] <Troy1> Can someone give me aURL for instruction for dual boot xp & ubuntu,I have 2 separate HD , i noticed when you use the installing tool off live CD it wants to install Unbuntu on Hd that Windows is on, Is there a manual way of installing o second HD and if so i would info that may be posted somewheres already
[03:48] <Scunizi> !dual | Troy1
[03:48] <Crayboff> syockit: tail -F is the command?
[03:48] <L3Tum> I'm trying to get my mouse working in ubuntu. It quit working in Fedora right before I installed ubuntu. I've tried changing the mouse, didn't work. I checked the serial ports in BIOS, and they are enabled. I have no problem with the keyboard. It could possibly have something to do with an ethernet card I have installed, although it didn't happen immediately after I installed it, but the next day. Can anyone help me?
[03:48] <hlm> NFischer, if you think thats bad I would hate to see your reaction to thepiratebay.org
[03:49] <Scunizi> !dualboot | Troy1
[03:49] <syockit> Crayboff: ah sorry, tail -f
[03:49] <Borgir> Hi there! I'm having some issues with Busybox. Can you guys give me a help?
[03:49] <syockit> Crayboff: tail -f result.file
[03:49] <underdog7> redvamp128, i think i have the multiverse repository enabled, but it still shows that it can't be installed -- says there is no candidate
[03:49] <Crayboff> ya, got it, you want me to pastebin it?
[03:50] <NFischer> Borgir jsut state your Q
[03:50] <Troy1> those links are for dual boot on same HD
[03:50] <Pengu1> Troy, what are you trying to install Ubuntu on?
[03:50] <Pengu1> And external driver?
[03:50] <Pengu1> drive*
[03:50] <Troy1> i hve no problems installing a dual boot on same HD
[03:50] <spideyman> Troy1 boot from cd 1st and make the drive ext filesystem then the installer should see it
[03:50] <chupy> Scunizi: thanks
[03:50] <redvamp128> underdog7:  It seems as if it is not available for Ibex or Intrepid.. but if you want it I can link you to the .deb from packages for hardy (kpdf)
[03:51] <Troy1> iI just cant get it 2 install to my slave drive properly
[03:51] <Scunizi> chupy: np.. have you installed those before? do you know all the steps?
[03:51] <Pengu1> Is it an external drive?
[03:51] <Troy1> i have tried manualtoo, but i recieve a message that it missing a Root
[03:51] <underdog7> revdvamp128, thanks, much appreciated!
[03:51] <syockit> Crayboff: no, pastebin the result.file when grep's finished. I just want you to monitor what tail gives
[03:51] <ngurah> ole-ole-ole-ole-ole
[03:51] <L3Tum> Troy1, Is the second hd an external or internal?
[03:52] <redvamp128> underdog7:  Ubuntu -- Details of package kpdf in hardy <http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/kpdf>
[03:52] <Troy1> internal
[03:52] <adrock> Does anybody know any channels where people trae books?
[03:52] <redvamp128> underdog7:  the links to the download site are at the bottom.
[03:52] <Scunizi> Troy1: if you had issues with manually doing it and an error.. it's probably 'cause grub was put on the wrong drive.  simply reinstall grub correctly
[03:52] <chupy> mmm my drivers are the nforce drivers Scunizi
[03:52] <RussM> grkblood13, Sorry, just scrolling through my history, saw you asking about a free remote desktop solution that would work cross platform - I have bookmarked "wizhelp" (www.wizhelp.com) to try out, it's supposed to do that. Haven't gotten around to it myself, but it might be useful.
[03:52] <Troy1> i have windows on Master setting for Hd and Linux is setup as slave
[03:53] <Scunizi> chupy: which version card? U.S. number?
[03:53] <Troy1> i cannot get my HD to work as Cable select for some reason
[03:53] <Crayboff> syockit: alright, umm now the tail is completely spazzing out it keeps repeating somethingl like file:/home/boff../home/boff" over and over again as if it were having fun with Ctrl+V
[03:53] <underdog7> redvamp128, thanks.  much appreciated.  why do you think i can't install it though?  i've never had that problem before in previous versions of ubuntu
[03:53] <epaul> hello everyone..
[03:53] <Troy1> i get NTDLR message
[03:53] <epaul> I am trying to use IPMITOOl..
[03:53] <redvamp128> underdog7:  because there is no intrepid or ibex version (8.10) in that repository
[03:53] <epaul> but while executing, it gives some error
[03:54] <ubuntu_> i wiped out windows vista from other hard drive and it also erased my bootloader...now what do i do to recover?
[03:54] <syockit> Crayboff: yes, it will output anything new added to the file. I told you to do this just to assure you that grep is running
[03:54] <Scunizi> ubuntu_: reinstall
[03:54] <chupy> Scunizi how do i get that??
[03:54] <epaul> like get device ID command failed
[03:54] <chupy> GeForce 7150M / nForce 630M
[03:54] <ubuntu_> um no, i know there is a fix to this
[03:54] <L3Tum> Can anyone help me troubleshoot my mouse problem please? I've tried changing to a different mouse obviously, and I've checked BIOS, ports are enabled. I don't THINK it is a driver problem because it quit working before I installed ubuntu.
[03:54] <Troy1> I can boot Ubuntu by changing which Hd to boot from in Bios, but thats kinda a annoying process
[03:54] <Crayboff> syockit: luckily i don't have epilepsy, or this tail would set it off, can i stop it? it's making my cpu go up to 90
[03:54] <Scunizi> chupy: an.. gforce 7150.. use the 180.29 card
[03:55] <Scunizi> *driver
[03:55] <sebsebseb> ubuntu_: Grub can be re installed
[03:55] <sebsebseb> that's the Ubuntu boot loader
[03:55] <ubuntu_> how
[03:55] <sebsebseb> !grub
[03:55] <chupy> Scunizi ok well thanks...
[03:55] <idris> sebsebseb r u here
[03:55] <Pengu1> ubuntu_: which bootloader are you trying to install? Ubuntu or Windows?
[03:55] <sebsebseb> idris: yes
[03:55] <ubuntu_> ubuntu
[03:55] <Scunizi> chupy: that driver will work well.. I use it for my 8200 geforce
[03:56] <Pengu1> That can be done in the Live CD
[03:56] <akio> what is the package that monitors services and restarts/stops them if unresponsive?
[03:56] <Troy1>  rather not use grub if possible, because if windows becomes corrupt i am stuck redoing everything
[03:56] <ubuntu_> i am on livecd now
[03:56] <syockit> Crayboff: um okay. wait, it's spouting *that* much?
[03:56] <chupy> Scunizi thanks :) its for overclocking
[03:56] <Pengu1> Ubuntu, one moment let me get a link for you.
[03:56] <redvamp128> Troy1:  Wingrub WinGrub and Ubuntu <http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p9.html>
[03:56] <sebsebseb> idris: talk in PM
[03:56] <Pengu1> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351
[03:56] <Pengu1> follow those instructions, Ubuntu_
[03:56] <redvamp128> Troy1:  but you have to be in windows to use/configure it.
[03:57] <Pengu1> it should restore grub.
[03:57] <Borgir> I have win and ubuntu in my computer. Last week I deleted the win partition and I have also changed the hdd boot order (firstly I was booting with an IDE HDD and now with a SATA HDD). The problem is grub disappeared, and when I use the live cd, every option (except the mem test) leads to the busybox command line. How can I fix this situation?
[03:57] <underdog7> redvamp128, thanks.  i'll give this a try.
[03:57] <syockit> Crayboff: sadly no
[03:57] <redvamp128> Troy1:  It basically -- uses the boot.ini to point to the wingrub to then load linux -- keeping your mbr intact.
[03:57] <Troy1> ok lookng at page you sen redvamp
[03:57] <Scunizi> Borgir: do you have a new motherboard too?
[03:57] <Crayboff> syockit: ya. you know when you were younger and played on Word, you wanted to make the largest number you could so you copypasted a bunch of zeros after a 1? and kept pressing the ctrl+V cause it went by fast? well that's what tail -f is doing right now
[03:58] <Borgir> It's the same motherboard.
[03:58] <syockit> Crayboff: ctrl-c that tail
[03:59] <Crayboff> syockit: wait. joke? or do you want me to copy it?
[03:59] <Troy1> you see my freind has a dual boot and he chose which OS to boot from by F8 option, and 2 separate HD
[03:59] <Scunizi> Borgir: when you get to the first screen on the live cd hit F6 and remove quiet splash .. that way you can watch the load process and see what the error is.
[03:59] <sedaghatfar> hi i used wubi to make a partion but not i deleted it, but it says i still has 10gb used in the partion how can i get that space back
[03:59] <syockit> Crayboff: okay I've determined this method a failure, as it would produce a superbly large file
[03:59] <evon> can anyone tell me how to get ubuntu to mount partitions automatically? For example my windows partitions?
[03:59] <syockit> Crayboff: and impossible to pastebin
[03:59] <sebsebseb> !mount
[03:59]  * syockit sighs
[03:59] <G-Blunted> how do i figure out what sound device my OS is using?
[03:59] <Crayboff> syockit: didn't happen when i did it before
[04:00] <Crayboff> syockit: well i didn't do tail before
[04:00] <G-Blunted> cause my OS plays sounds but i can't configure amsn to output to my /dev/audio or /dev/dsp
[04:00] <spideyman> !fstab
[04:00] <syockit> Crayboff: wait, before-> means grep finished completely?
[04:00] <Crayboff> syockit: yes
[04:00] <evon> ubottu: you talkin to me?
[04:00] <syockit> Crayboff: what is grep doing now?
[04:00] <syockit> evon: it is a bot, automated
[04:01] <Troy1> ok loks like i have some reading to do
[04:01] <evon> ? what kind of bot is that?
[04:01] <Borgir> Scunizi.. Ok! I'm going to try it now.
[04:01] <Pengu1> evon, aren't partitions mounted automatically by default?
[04:01] <evon> it reads what we write and responds?
[04:01] <Pengu1> mine are.
[04:01] <Troy1> wil wubi work for installing to a second HD
[04:01] <Scunizi> Borgir: do you know how.. correctly?
[04:01] <Troy1> appears to be an easier method for newbie's like me
[04:01] <Crayboff> syockit: now it's hanging out at "grep: /home/boff/../boff/.mozilla/firefox/j4d3th5q.default/lock: no such directory" got one thing farther than it was before, i think
[04:01] <syockit> evon: it reads certain commands started with the exclamation mark, ! .
[04:02] <redvamp128> Troy1:  Using that wingrub will make the mbr still be windows based.
[04:02] <evon> Pengul: they are not mounted until i try to access it with nautilus but I want it to mount on boot
[04:02] <underdog7> can someone tell me where i set file associations?
[04:02] <redvamp128> underdog7:  find the file you want to set-- then right click choose properties then open with tab choose the program.
[04:02] <Troy1> my freind has a dual boot without Grub
[04:02] <Troy1> how did he do it
[04:02] <Crayboff> syockit: ya it's one thing after it paused at before
[04:03] <Pengu1> Troy1, he probably used Wubi
[04:03] <syockit> Crayboff: as you can see, grep tries to output any line in a file that contains the word we give. but for non-text files, one line could be veeeeeeery long
[04:03] <evon> can anyone tell me how to get ubuntu to mount partitions automatically? For example my windows partitions?
[04:03] <redvamp128> Troy either that or he used wingrub.
[04:03] <syockit> Crayboff: that's why I think this won't work
[04:03] <Xeo> how do i access shared files on my windows pc from ubuntu?  I've tried smb:///192.168.1.100
[04:03] <Crayboff> ah
[04:03] <Xeo> and it's not working
[04:03] <jrib> evon: install and run ntfs-config
[04:03] <NFischer> underdog7 you mean links?
[04:03] <underdog7> redvamp128, but i don't want to have to go through that process.  i want it automatic association.
[04:03] <Troy1> wingrub kinda sound like grub
[04:03] <Troy1> but it's ok
[04:03] <Crayboff> syockit: well it just did work before, so that's why i'm confused
[04:03] <NFischer> evon fstab
[04:03] <epaul> hello..
[04:03] <underdog7> NFischer, sorry, i'm sure i know what you mean
[04:03] <Troy1> thanks again redvamp your a helpful
[04:03] <redvamp128> Troy1:  basically it is but runs on windows parition--
[04:04] <epaul> I got some error while using ipmitool
[04:04] <NFischer> evon sudo gedit etc/fstab/
[04:04] <epaul> please help me
[04:04]  * Crayboff is starting to hate tail
[04:04] <syockit> Crayboff: probably the -i flag makes it run slower, or results in more results
[04:04] <NFischer> underdog what do you want to do?
[04:04] <hlm> how do I end an invisible process?
[04:04] <redvamp128> Troy1:  but unlike standard grub it does not overwrite the mbr-- basically it uses the boot.ini file to link to the windgrub to then boot your linux
[04:04] <Crayboff> ah, syockit would you like me to continue tail and grep?
[04:04] <syockit> Crayboff: then can you ctrl-c the grep and repeat without i. that is: grep -R instead of grep -iR
[04:04] <Borgir> Scunizi.. I will look for "quiet splash" in the line that appears when pressing F6. Then delete those 2 words?
[04:04] <evon> NFischer: i don't know how to edit fstab. that file is confusing to me
[04:04] <redvamp128> Troy1:  but you have to be in windows to configure it /edit the boot.ini
[04:05] <Scunizi> Borgir: yes
[04:05] <Borgir> Ok.. brb
[04:05] <NFischer> evon you have to do some work on your own... http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html
[04:05] <Troy1> honestly i am feel i will screw that wingrub process up
[04:05] <NFischer> evon please try gogole first
[04:05] <Troy1> playing with HD s scary for me
[04:05] <Troy1> i just speant all last night getting my windows all back to normal
[04:05] <underdog7> NFischer, i would like to associate a certain program with a certain type of file, such that i don't have to right click on the file and choose what program i want -- i want it automatic.
[04:06] <RussM> hlm, "invisible"?
[04:06] <Troy1> even though i do like linux
[04:06] <wolter> how do i get my computer (192.168.1.xxx) recognized as http://wolter-laptop on any network i connect to?
[04:06] <Crayboff> Troy1: it works for me, well i used wubi to install
[04:06] <evon> NFischer: i did otherwise I would not be here. I don't understand how to input lines into the fstab. I'm also trying to mount another linux partion as well. not just windows. I don't want to have to go through nautilus everytime i want something mounted
[04:06] <Pengu1> underdog, right click the file, hit properties, then hit 'open with' and hit close. it will associate with that program from then on.
[04:06] <hlm> RussM, it was started in a terminal, its no in sysmon and I closed the terminal and its still running
[04:06] <NFischer> underdog7 ah i see... right clock > properties > open with
[04:06] <Troy1> yeah wubi looks like an easier method for newbie like me
[04:07] <RussM> hlm, If you open another terminal, and type "ps -elf", do you see it there?
[04:07] <Troy1> all the chain load and map and Hd) stuff gets confusing for me
[04:07] <Crayboff> Troy1: it is,seeing how i'm a newbie myself, but it's caused some problems for me
[04:07] <underdog7> ahh, thanks NFischer.  that's actually what redvamp128 was telling me.  thanks to you both.  much appreciated.
[04:07] <Crayboff> aaa, syockit you said i can't close tail, right?
[04:08] <syockit> Crayboff: yes you can
[04:08] <Troy1> oh how did wubi fail for you
[04:08] <syockit> Crayboff: ctrl-c it
[04:08] <hlm> RussM, I cant decipher what that is saying
[04:08] <Pengu1> the only downside to Wubi is the inability to hibernate
[04:08] <Crayboff> syockit: umm i closed it before you said ctrl-c it
[04:08] <illumin8> Guys i borked my grub install on my ubuntu partion when i installed fedora 10 to another partion, is there a way to fix it from the live install?
[04:08] <syockit> Crayboff: okay then
[04:08] <RussM> hlm, What process is it? It's possible it started some other process, so it is showing up under a different name.
[04:08] <sebsebseb> wubi I woudn't recommend it
[04:08] <Pengu1> You want to restore grub, illumin8?
[04:08] <sebsebseb> wubit is for noobs that can't partition
[04:09] <sebsebseb> partitions are the best
[04:09] <Troy1> Hibernate, meaning just during installion process ?
[04:09] <illumin8> I want to have grub be my primary bootloader yes
[04:09] <danbhfive> illumin8: does fedora use grub? or lilo?
[04:09] <Troy1> not sure what they meant by that  ?
[04:09] <Pengu1> illumin8: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351
[04:09] <hlm> RussM, will you promise to continue to help me?
[04:09] <sebsebseb> danbhfive: hardly any distros use lilo
[04:09] <sebsebseb> danbhfive: by default
[04:09] <sebsebseb> so Grub
[04:09] <sebsebseb> yeah
[04:09] <Crayboff> syockit: i got back like 30% of my cpu by closing it :)
[04:09] <Pengu1> Troy1, hibernate is a feature that saves your ram to your hard drive, so when you reboot your desktop is exactly as you'd left it
[04:09] <danbhfive> sebsebseb: hehe, ok
[04:09] <hlm> RussM, its metasploit framework web UI
[04:10] <sebsebseb> and  Fedora Core 2 and 4 were my first Linux distros, and yes they used Grub
[04:10] <madagascar27> when you delete a partition where does the disk space go to
[04:10] <wolter> madagascar27, unallocated
[04:10] <madagascar27> wolter: ?
[04:10] <RussM> hlm, Well, I've never run metasploit, so unfortunately that doesn't give me any insight.
[04:10] <danbhfive> illumin8: is it that ubuntu is just not listed in the grub menu?
[04:10] <syockit> Crayboff: have you restarted the grep?
[04:10] <Scunizi> madagascar27: unassigned and unavailable until you reassign it
[04:10] <sebsebseb> madagascar27: if you just delete a partition it is really still there,  untill being overwritten, it's just not in the partition table
[04:10] <wolter> to wherever it was, but it has nothing, nor is it formatted.
[04:10] <Pengu1> The disk space is cleared, madagascar27, e.g., 'unallocated'
[04:10] <Troy1> not quite sre what you meant by that
[04:11] <Troy1>  hibernate is a feature that saves your ram to your hard drive, so when you reboot your desktop is exactly as you'd left it
[04:11] <madagascar27> how can i take that parition and add the space to an existing spot
[04:11] <wolter> NICEE
[04:11] <sebsebseb> wolter: oh it's you
[04:11] <Crayboff> syockit: didn't know you wanted me to restart it
[04:11] <Troy1> swap space ?
[04:11] <Pengu1> Troy1, if your were running a program or watching a video, you could reboot and the program would still be running.
[04:11] <Crayboff> syockit: i'll do it, you want it without the -i, right?
[04:11] <illumin8> Im sorry if im not responding to your messages, they appear bright yellow to me so very hard to read. What happend was i have 7 Oses installed on the machine, recently i put fedora 10 in and it failed to load the other Oses on boot, so I would prefer to use Ubuntu's since its most reliable
[04:11] <wolter> http://<computer name>.local
[04:11] <sebsebseb> wolter:  the one from my MSN?
[04:11] <wolter> hey sebsebseb
[04:11] <wolter> yeah..
[04:11] <wolter> haha
[04:11] <FloodBot2> wolter: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:11] <idris> how can i get amsn on ubuntu
[04:11] <sebsebseb> don't use wubi
[04:12] <illumin8> I did what that post said, so hopefully that will resolve it. Brb :)
[04:12] <idris> ?????
[04:12] <sebsebseb> idris: I already told you the command way
[04:12] <nishshanka_> hi all
[04:12] <wolter> sebsebseb,  i setup ftp server and everyone on network can access it by entering ftp://wolter-laptop.local/ =DD
[04:12] <Troy1> my windows does not have the option
[04:12] <Scunizi> illumin8: you need to learn how to use vmware or virtual box.. much easier to install and delete an OS for testing playing etc
[04:12] <wolter> shut up, FloodBot2
[04:12] <syockit> Crayboff: yes please
[04:12] <sebsebseb> idris:  you should read up about Ubuntu
[04:12] <madagascar27> how can i take that parition and add the space to an existing spot
[04:12] <RussM> hlm, I see from wiki that metasploit framework is a ruby app... you might try killing all ruby stuff...
[04:12] <Troy1> soeant appear like anything imprtant to me
[04:12] <Pengu1> Troy1, no, windows does not have that option.
[04:12] <Crayboff> alright, started it, syockit
[04:12] <wolter> sebsebseb, i had to do nothing =D that's the greatest thing..
[04:12] <sebsebseb> idris:  http://www.ubuntuguide.org
[04:12] <Troy1> i can live without that
[04:12] <nishshanka_> please response me any one who doing application with lighttpd
[04:13] <redvamp128> idris:  sudo apt-get install amsn
[04:13] <sebsebseb> wolter: yep Ubuntu is good for setting up servers
[04:13] <Pengu1> Madagascar27, you can resize partitions with gparted
[04:13] <hlm> RussM, what should I look for in system monitor?
[04:13] <sebsebseb> redvamp128: I already told him, but he can't seem to use the terminal even
[04:13] <RussM> hlm, try "ps -elf | grep ruby" and see if you get back anything.
[04:13] <wolter> sebsebseb, good? AWESOME
[04:13] <madagascar27> pengul: where do i find gparted
[04:13] <wolter> thats way better than samba, for file sharing..
[04:13] <wolter> samba is dead for me...
[04:13] <sebsebseb> redvamp128: even told him he has to press enter and put in his Ubuntu password after running the command
[04:13] <wolter> ftp should be the universal way of sharing
[04:14] <hlm> RussM, I found it now, thankyou
[04:14] <sebsebseb> wolter: oh you can help someone
[04:14] <Pengu1> madagascar27, system > administration > partition editor
[04:14] <hlm> and I now understand how to ready it
[04:14] <redvamp128> sebesebseb: I think I even told them to look in the synaptic package manger
[04:14] <wolter> the only bad thing is that you cannot limit whether its read-only or read-n-write
[04:14] <hlm> RussM, how do I kill one of these processes?
[04:14] <madagascar27> pengul: thanks
[04:14] <wolter> but i need to use read and write, so even better
[04:14] <wolter> !
[04:14] <Pengu1> Resizing partitions takes a long time.
[04:14] <hlm> !kill
[04:14] <illumin8> Whoever sent me the link to restore grub on my ubuntu partion thank you, i couldnt read your name from the live cd
[04:15] <RussM> hlm, the first number in the ps output line should be the pid, you can "kill -9 thatnumber"
[04:15] <RussM> hlm, or, if you don't have any other ruby stuff running, try pkill ruby
[04:15] <redvamp128> hlm:  I know the simple way to kill it-- just ctl-alt-backspace then log back in and the process should be stopped
[04:15] <Pengu1> illumin8, that was me. you're welcome.
[04:15] <hlm> redvamp128, no thanks, I dont want to restore all my running apps
[04:15] <illumin8> One final question, Since i installed other oses on the system after the install of ubuntu, how can i update ubuntus grub so it registers those new installs?
[04:15] <illumin8> Pengu1, Thank you very much :)
[04:15] <hlm> RussM, would it work if I did a pkill $app?
[04:16] <pek> quit
[04:16] <qcjn> hi, about "back in time", when the back up is made, after to retrive the file, do i just have to re-copy from where there saved ??
[04:16] <Pengu1> They aren't there automatically, illumin8? Listed under 'other os's'?
[04:16] <nishshanka_> hi again please connect with me some one who working with lighttpd web server
[04:16] <RussM> hlm, It should, pkill just runs a match against the process list. Be careful of unexpected matches, though.
[04:17] <illumin8> Pengu1, no, im missing an install of fedora and one other
[04:17] <hlm> RussM, its a pretty hard match, itll be 'msf'
[04:17] <hlm> RussM, I tried kill -9 PID and it didnt kill it
[04:17] <Pengu1> I'm not sure how to edit the file that detects them, I'm not much of an advanced user myself.
[04:18] <RussM> hlm, msf should be pretty unique, try pkill -9 msf
[04:18] <kyledr> what's win32codecs called? i can't find it in the package manager
[04:18] <world_citizen> how can I reinstall firefox?
[04:18] <hlm> RussM, I dont think that command is being found... its instantly returning me
[04:18] <madagascar27> im on the ubuntu alt installer and up to the partion part and it has been over 10 mins and the loadbar did not move past 0%
[04:19] <illumin8> Pengu1, Currently i have Ubuntu, crunchbang (8.10), fedora, debian 5.0, and one other i cant remember.. all installed on seperate partions but using the same swap. 2 of them were installed post ubuntu 8.04 install.
[04:19] <kyledr> nevermind i just found it...
[04:19] <harpreet> anyone ever used hylaFAX?
[04:19] <redvamp128> !codecs | kyledr
[04:19] <spideyman> kyledr try the perfectbuntu script
[04:19] <Pengu1> madagascar27, it takes a long time to rezise partitions. let it go for a while.
[04:19] <genii> nishshanka_: If you're certain your issue is with lighthttpd post your tech support question on their board at http://redmine.lighttpd.net/projects/lighttpd/boards
[04:19] <Quontrex_Ashimi> madagascar27: on a known good hard drive?
[04:19] <illumin8> Pengu1, so it doesnt have the new ones on ubuntus grub i assume
[04:19] <RussM> hlm, gotta take the dogs out. brb
[04:19] <NFischer> world_citizen, synaptic, mark for reinstall
[04:19] <madagascar27> pengul: how long
[04:19] <hlm> RussM, okay
[04:19] <world_citizen> NFisher: thanks
[04:19] <Pengu1> illumin8: I'm not sure how to fix that
[04:19] <Troy1> thanks everyone
[04:19] <kyledr> spideyman: not seeing that in the package manager
[04:20] <harpreet> Pengu1: fix what?
[04:20] <Troy1> to tried to attempt this tonight
[04:20] <madagascar27> Quontrex_Ashimi: yes a sony viao core 2 duo all that jazz
[04:20] <illumin8> Pengu1, would reinstalling grub do the trick?
[04:20] <Pengu1> madagascar27: it shouldn't take more than an hour. but more than 15 minutes.
[04:20] <spideyman> kyledr google it  its a script
[04:20] <madagascar27> pengul: okay thx
[04:20] <redvamp128> kyledr:  it won't be there-- it is part of mediabuntu -- and the pages that ubottu linked you to will tell you how to install it
[04:20] <Quontrex_Ashimi> madagascar27: doing a clean install or resize?
[04:20] <Pengu1> illumin8: I doubt it, since that's what you just did.
[04:20] <Angelus_Delapsus> Anyone in here familar with Kubuntu?
[04:20] <redvamp128> !codecs| kyledr:
[04:20] <madagascar27> Quontrex_Ashimi: i am making a partition?
[04:21] <harpreet> Angelus_Delapsus: Yes
[04:21] <Pengu1> madagascar27: I thought your were rezising? or adding to your existing partition?
[04:21] <Quontrex_Ashimi> madagascar27: and the hard disk drive in the machine has worked for you before?
[04:21] <Flannel> !anyone | Angelus_Delapsus
[04:21] <Flannel> Angelus_Delapsus: Also, You might have more luck in #kubuntu
[04:21] <Angelus_Delapsus> Then, Harp: I just logged in and all the sudden Plasma crashed (signal 11)
[04:21] <madagascar27> Quontrex_Ashimi: yep
[04:21] <looter> anyone else get a high pitch cackling sound  using intrepid ibex?
[04:21] <hlm> !pid
[04:21] <hlm> !processes
[04:21] <harpreet> Angelus_Delapsus: It is a bug, you may report that, what version are you running?
[04:22] <DVA5912> Whats a free alternative to Adobe Fireworks?
[04:22] <Pengu1> looter, that's probably a hardware problem
[04:22] <kc8pxy> i just helped a friend install 8.04.2 64-bit, and also trying to help him transition from windows.  a particular applet he runs often does not work right under ubuntu. how do i start helping him fix it?
[04:22] <Quontrex_Ashimi> madagascar27: I would strongly suggest getting the disk diagnostic for that model hard drive
[04:22] <harpreet> Angelus_Delapsus: unfortunately plama isn't highly reliable
[04:22] <Angelus_Delapsus> Honestly, on any other occassion I would be able to riddle that info off for you. But for some reason, I can't remember
[04:22] <madagascar27> Quontrex_Ashimi: how
[04:23] <Pengu1> kc8pxy, it'd help if we knew what app it was.
[04:23] <looter> you think?  what do you suggest I do?  I don't have any problems on my vista install...
[04:23] <Quontrex_Ashimi> madagascar27: know the brand and model of the disk?
[04:23] <Pengu1> looter, is it installed on a different hard drive?
[04:23] <redvamp128> kyledr:  also see this guide How to Install win32 codec - Ubuntu Forums <http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=60754>
[04:23] <harpreet> Angelus_Delapsus: when did you install it? Do you have anything else running on system?
[04:23] <looter> yep
[04:23] <Pengu1> is it an external drive?
[04:23] <Borgir> Scunizi.. it's hard to tell.. so much lines.. The hanlers are: ata_interrupt ... [libate] and disabling IRQ #21
[04:23] <madagascar27> Quontrex_Ashimi: total newb its a sony viao all i noe
[04:23] <Pengu1> looter, is it external?
[04:23] <Crayboff> craaaapp, syockit, my laptop froze, i had to force shut it down, i was just trying to open flock
[04:23] <looter> nope
[04:24] <syockit> Crayboff: aaawwwww
[04:24] <Quontrex_Ashimi> madagascar27: well you need to know the model and brand name of the hard drive INSIDE the sony box
[04:24] <Pengu1> well I suppose it's just the drive.
[04:24] <Angelus_Delapsus> Harp: Installed the latest version from kubuntu source... Litterally clicked the "Latest Version" download. :) And no, nothing else is on it. I uninstalled windows when I installed Linux (An action I took extreme pride in doing, btw)
[04:24] <Crayboff> syockit: i'll start grep again
[04:24] <IgnitedSun> g
[04:24] <kc8pxy> Pengu1:  it's a chat..  let me get the applet name.
[04:24] <Quontrex_Ashimi> Crayboff: sounds like its flocked
[04:24] <syockit> Crayboff: but really I don't think you can find the root cause with grep
[04:24] <Crayboff> :(
[04:24] <looter> hmm...well i just formatted this drivewhich previously had xp on it again with no issues
[04:24] <syockit> Crayboff: it's unfeasible, as it goes through binary (non-text) files as well
[04:25] <Pengu1> looter, I'm not sure why ubuntu would make a sound and xp wouldn't.
[04:25] <bullgard4> What does  "-- MARK --" mean as in http://rafb.net/p/cK16mD15.html?
[04:25] <harpreet> Angelus_Delapsus: you ever used ubuntu? you may consider using gnome and kde both at the same time, incase of a problem, your data will always be safe
[04:26] <Angelus_Delapsus> Harp: I read about that option, but I can't find it honestly. It was one of the main reasons I decided to switch to Kubuntu.
[04:26] <Quontrex_Ashimi> and ALWAYS put your /home on a seperate partition
[04:26] <Angelus_Delapsus> That and it just runs better.
[04:26] <Crayboff> Quontrex_Ashimi: my entire computer and any electronic thing i come in contact with finds a way to flock itself
[04:26] <syockit> Crayboff: why don't you just find files with filename containing amarok instead? do this: find ~ | grep -i amarok
[04:26] <Quontrex_Ashimi> Crayboff: I know the feeling
[04:26] <Crayboff> alright, i'll try, syockit
[04:26] <syockit> Crayboff: sorry, repeat that with " > result.file" added
[04:26] <jbuncher> syockit:  would running "locate amarok" be faster?
[04:26] <Angelus_Delapsus> Syo isn't that normally ~/ , or somewhere in ther?
[04:27] <RussM> hlm, back. any luck?
[04:27] <syockit> jbuncher: yeah forgot locate
[04:27] <syockit> Crayboff: use locate instead
[04:27] <hlm> RussM, no, the command kill isnt found and no luck with pkill
[04:27] <Quontrex_Ashimi> could use find / -name amarok
[04:27] <jbuncher> syockit:  just making sure my search habits aren't bad :)
[04:27] <spideyman> frostwire wont close after upgrade
[04:27] <harpreet> Angelus_Delapsus: if you installed kubuntu, the possiblity is you only have kde not gnome, but when you restart your system you will see option of starting kde or gnome, if not, you;'ll have to install gnome
[04:27] <RussM> hlm, can you pastebin the output of "ps -elf | grep ruby"?
[04:27] <Crayboff> make up your mind, syockit, "locate ~ | grep -i amarok > result.file "   ?
[04:28] <Angelus_Delapsus> Harpreet: Can I do that when my GUI isn't even starting?
[04:28] <syockit> Crayboff: locate amarok | pastebinit
[04:28] <Angelus_Delapsus> or do it through "sudo apt-get install"?
[04:28] <Crayboff> syockit: is it sudo?
[04:28] <kyledr> redvamp128: thanks, nice tip. i found something i thought was it, but it wasn't. i needed ubuntu-restricted-extras
[04:28] <hlm> RussM, its two lines... want me to send via pm?
[04:28] <syockit> Crayboff: no
[04:28] <redvamp128> spideyman:  you have to uninstall and reinstall the later version - I saw that one about a week ago-- from someone who upgraded from hardy to intrepid (that fixed her issue)
[04:28] <Crayboff> alright, i put it in, lets see what happens
[04:28] <Crayboff> syockit: http://pastebin.com/f62ea2c4b
[04:29] <syockit> jbuncher: it's just that I do not trust my system has up to date updatedb, that's why i keep forgetting locate
[04:29] <madagascar27> 1/2 an hr and no progress on the partition what can i do to stop it, alt instaler ubuntu 8.10
[04:29] <spideyman> redvamp128 thanx
[04:29] <redvamp128> kyledr:  here is another guide to installing w32 How to Install win32 codec - Ubuntu Forums <http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=60754>
[04:29] <hlm> RussM, http://paste.ubuntu.com/119511/
[04:29] <harpreet> Angelus_Delapsus: you may try package manager, oh its called apt package manager and search for gnome there
[04:29] <Quontrex_Ashimi> madagascar27: turn it off
[04:29] <Crayboff> when i go off to college next year, my roommate better be an ubuntu expert
[04:29] <redvamp128> spideyman:  now you have to unistall current version then install the version that is for the upgraded one
[04:29] <kyledr> redvamp128: thanks.. my current trouble is that apt-get instlal w32codecs won't work, says it's referenced by another package but no installation candidate is avail
[04:29] <lavren> I have this smoothwall box, no cdrom drive. It has ftp access to the rest of my network -- what is the most straight forward way to get ubuntu onto it --
[04:29] <Quontrex_Ashimi> madagascar27: open the box, get make and model of the hard disk drive and come back with that info
[04:29] <jbuncher> syockit, I think there's a cron job that runs it pretty often, but sometimes I just run it manually after I move a ton of stuff around
[04:30] <redvamp128> kyledr:  Intrepid or Juanty?
[04:30] <kyledr> redvamp128: intrepid
[04:30] <RussM> hlm, OK, I think the problem is that you're running the pkill as you, and the process is owned by root.
[04:30] <kyledr> redvamp128: isn't that second link the same as the first?
[04:30] <hlm> so I should 'sudo pkill -9 4' ?
[04:30] <RussM> hlm, "sudo pkill -9 msf" should do it.
[04:31] <redvamp128> kyledr:  or just download the .deb from mediabuntu Medibuntu -- Details of release intrepid <http://packages.medibuntu.org/intrepid/index.html>
[04:31] <syockit> Crayboff: let's try this: uninstall amarok (do not purge/completely remove), log out, log in again, install amarok again, and then try relogin
[04:31] <hlm> RussM, no, that didnt work
[04:31] <Crayboff> alright, syockit
[04:31] <Crayboff> apt-get remove, right?
[04:31] <redvamp128> kyledr:  look at the bottom of that page
[04:32] <Pengu1> anyone know of any progress on Zune in Ubuntu?
[04:32] <jaxx2kde> How do I mount partition automatically on start up, using a script?
[04:32] <syockit> Crayboff: yes
[04:32] <jaxx2kde> or otherwise
[04:32] <Borgir> Is it possible to edit grub file using the busybox command line?
[04:33] <hlm> RussM, woops, I fixed it ;-)
[04:33] <kc8pxy> Pengu1: www.addonchat.com hosts the applet.
[04:33] <Crayboff> syockit: alright, brb
[04:33] <NFischer> jaxx2kde, sudo gedit etc/fstab
[04:33] <RussM> hlm, What happened?
[04:33] <redvamp128> kyledr:  did you get my last link to this Medibuntu -- Details of package w32codecs in hardy <http://packages.medibuntu.org/hardy/w32codecs.html>
[04:33] <illumin8> whats the commaned to edit the grub.conf?
[04:33] <kyledr> redvamp128: yes. so i can't get it straight from ubuntu?
[04:33] <harpreet> jaxx2kde: you have to modify the file that contains information about paritions and set automatic mounting there to mount the file system each time the system starts
[04:33] <hlm> RussM, I accidentally forgot to put msf
[04:33] <redvamp128> kyledr:  I think you have to add mediabuntu to the repos like in the guide
[04:33] <harpreet> jaxx2kde: use gedit to modfiy it
[04:34] <world_citizen> how can I install firefox with apget?
[04:34] <Pengu1> kc8pxy: and you're saying it doesn't work in Ubuntu?
[04:34] <redvamp128> kyledr:  or you can find it here Medibuntu -- Details of package w32codecs in intrepid <http://packages.medibuntu.org/intrepid/w32codecs.html>
[04:34] <hlm> RussM, what was that command to get the list again?
[04:34] <NFischer> world_citizen, sudo apt-get install firefox ?
[04:34] <jbuncher> illumin8:  jsut edit /boot/grub/menu.lst with your editor of choice
[04:34] <RussM> hlm, the process list?
[04:34] <world_citizen> NFischer: thanks again
[04:34] <hlm> RussM, yes, with search
[04:35] <redvamp128> kyledr:  I think once you add mediabuntu (like in the guide that ubottu gave) it will then show up in apt and in synaptic
[04:35] <RussM> "ps -elf" gets you the full list. Adding " | grep searchstring" filters it down.
[04:35] <kyledr> redvamp128: deb: command not found
[04:35] <spideyman> kyledr use this script make it executible and run from terminal lots of options all the goodies
[04:35] <kc8pxy> Pengu1:  it doesn't work on my friends 64-bit ubuntu. i have not yet confirmed with ym own 64-bit ubuntu box. works fine on my 32-bit gentoo box.
[04:35] <jaxx2kde> harpreet, NFischer: i have /etc/fstab open.. what lines should i add
[04:35] <redvamp128> kyledr:  Pm?
[04:35] <bullgard4> What does  "-- MARK --" mean as in http://rafb.net/p/cK16mD15.html?
[04:35] <NFischer> jaxx2kde, http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html
[04:35] <kc8pxy> Pengu1:  it starts the loading part,  but get stuck there.
[04:36] <illumin8> jbuncher, thank you
[04:36] <Pengu1> Did he have a 64 bit windows install before using Ubuntu?
[04:36] <RussM> hlm, See the man pages for ps and grep for more info. ("man ps" and "man grep" respectively)
[04:36] <madagascar27> Quontrex_Ashimi:http://paste.ubuntu.com/119513/
[04:36] <jaxx2kde> NFischer, thanks :)
[04:36] <hlm> RussM, I lied, its still running
[04:36] <jhonnyboy> Hello everyone. Sound Problems here. I can hear sound on ubuntu, but i can't hear my system sound. Any ideas?
[04:36] <kc8pxy> Pengu1:  nope..  32-bit vista
[04:36] <Pengu1> I suppose you should test it on your 64 bit. It may just not be compatible with 64 bit.
[04:36] <madagascar27> quontrex_Ashimi: did it work
[04:36] <bullgard4> jhonnyboy: Yes. Consult help.ubuntu.com
[04:36] <kc8pxy> Pengu1: he's currently on the ubuntu side of a ubuntu/vista dual
[04:37] <jhonnyboy> bullgard4: Thank you
[04:37] <ramy> #zeitgeistmovement
[04:37] <kc8pxy> Pengu1: could he use a 32-bit java?
[04:37] <tritium> ramy: stay on topic, please
[04:37] <RussM> hlm, Hmmm. Can you run that "ps -elf | grep ruby" again? I want to see if it has changed.
[04:37] <hlm> RussM, the process fails to end, im not even getting any errors :-(
[04:38] <Pengu1> I don't know how to do that in Ubuntu, but I'm sure it's possible. I would bet on that to work, though.
[04:38] <hlm> RussM, I can assure you it is exactly the same
[04:38] <jhonnyboy> I have the logitech x530 speakers and a Creative Audigy SE soundcard. I'm not getting surround sound and i only have 2 + the subwoofer out of 6 speakers working. Do you guys know of anything i can do to solve this issue?
[04:38] <madagascar27> http://paste.ubuntu.com/119513/
[04:38] <ramy> what? o dont get it. i wanan get to a irc room called zeitgeistmovement
[04:38] <RussM> hlm, OK, then the last thing I can suggest is "sudo kill -9 6451"
[04:38] <tritium> ramy: you forgot the /join in front of the channel name, in that case
[04:38] <RussM> hlm, If that doesn't do it, I'm out of suggestions.
[04:39] <ramy> ohhh ty
[04:39] <Crayboff> syockit: that did nothing
[04:39] <AlexD73> hello
[04:40] <hlm> RussM, thankyou, that worked!
[04:40] <xx> hello
[04:40] <lavren> so is a netboot possible without a dhcp server? It would seem unlikely for it not to be

[04:43] <G-Blunted> Hey my system is bogged down...how can i see what is taking up all my cpu/ram??
[04:43] <sebsebseb> Pengu1: bad driver maybe or bad graphics card
[04:43] <Crayboff> pengul, u have ATI too?
[04:43] <sebsebseb> G-Blunted: easy
[04:43] <Pengu1> Yes, Crayboff
[04:43] <Rainium_Isotope_> i was able to install the graphics card
[04:43]  * G-Blunted waits for it..
[04:43] <wubrgamer> ubottu: hi
[04:43] <Crayboff> pengul: are you using compiz?
[04:43] <spideyman> G-Blunted type top in terminal
[04:43] <Rainium_Isotope_> o nvm
[04:43] <ndfsck> G-Blunted: system>administration>system monitor (or 'top' in console)
[04:43] <Rainium_Isotope_> ha
[04:43] <sebsebseb> G-Blunted: right click on the panel and  add the thing to it
[04:43] <G-Blunted> ok i will try
[04:43] <Pengu1> Crayboff, yeah, is that the problem?
[04:43] <sebsebseb> G-Blunted: or do what  ndfsck said
[04:44] <ndf> =)
[04:44] <Crayboff> pengul: i have the exact same problem. if you turn off all your effects it works. I have looked for an answer and haven't found anything. apparently they're going to come out with a fix a couple months from now, but that's what they said last september
[04:45] <Pengu1> Maybe Jaunty will fix it?
[04:45] <Pengu1> I was planning on getting a new card, anyway. Does this happen with all ATI's?
[04:45] <Crayboff> No clue, i just use what dell gave me in
[04:46] <Pengu1> What card do you have?
[04:46] <sebsebseb> Pengu1: no idea I use Nividia
[04:46] <L3Tum> Can someone please help me get my mouse working? It quit working, I installed ubuntu, still didn't work, tried another mouse, didn't work, checked BIOS, still doesn't work
[04:46] <Pengu1> I have a Radeon x600. I think it's like a laptop card or something.
[04:46] <Crayboff> Pengu1: also have no clue, whatever came in inspiron 1521, a model of laptop which they discontinued a month or so after i got it
[04:47] <G-Blunted> when i login...i get this error: "User's $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored.  This prevents the default session and language from being saved.

[04:49] <Y-Town> anyone here experiencing firefox and seamonkey crashing while surfing the web?  only started this week for me
[04:49] <bullgard4> What does  "-- MARK --" mean as in http://rafb.net/p/cK16mD15.html?
[04:49] <Crayboff> thanks, Pengu1
[04:49] <jbuncher> Y-Town, did you install any plugins this week?
[04:49] <Dracie> Y-Town, try removing .mozilla from your home folder (back it up before you do) and try again
[04:49] <w7> o
[04:49] <Y-Town> jbuncher: none
[04:50] <Y-Town> Dracie: does it with seamonkey too
[04:50] <jbuncher> G-Blunted, "chmod 644 ~/.dmrc"
[04:50] <G-Blunted> thats it?
[04:51] <donavan> I need to make a connection between my PC and a NAS box I am building I am using WIFI right now for my internet but I want to hardwire the NAS to the PC ... I havent messed around with this ... does anyone know of a good howto on this one ... PC should be able to access the NAS and the internet but the NAS should only see the PC
[04:51] <G-Blunted> how do i list files in a directory and see what permissions everything has?
[04:51] <Dracie> Y-Town, i dunno where seamonkey puts configs
[04:52] <jrib> G-Blunted: ls -l
[04:52] <jbuncher> G-Blunted:  that command will change the permissions of the .dmrc file.  To list files in a directory and see what permissions everything has, run ls -l in the directory you're curious about
[04:52] <Crayboff> DANG IT!!! now my firefox is screwed over
[04:52] <Crayboff> i hate my life
[04:52] <tritium> Crayboff: relax
[04:53] <Crayboff> tritium, if you had my computer, you'd be getting pissed off too
[04:53] <jbuncher> Can anyone in here help confirm (or deny) that intel wireless has trouble connecting to hidden ssid networks on hardy 2.6.24-23?
[04:53] <Y-Town> I just disables java and flash and now seems to work.... something tells me there is a bug in the most recent update since I never had an issue before
[04:54] <Crayboff> anyone know how to get the bookmarks toolbar working again? it says its there but there is nothign on it and i cant move things onto it
[04:54] <Crayboff> also my homepage turned blank
[04:54] <L3Tum> Anyone willing to help me fix my mouse please?
[04:54] <Pengu1> you've tried restarting firefox, I assume?
[04:56] <Crayboff> it's going very slowly and there is no message of it doing anything in that bottom bar, nothing shows up when you click a link
[04:56] <Crayboff> and, yes, Pengul, I closed firefox and opened it like 3 times so far
[04:57] <Dracie> hey guys run firefox in a terminal
[04:57] <Dracie> see what sort of warning/errors it gives
[04:57] <FearMoth> Hi, is there any way to check if my computer has an agp port without having physical access to it? I could shut it down and open it up, but I would rather not
[04:58] <Crayboff> Dracie: how would i go about doing that?
[04:59] <Dracie> Crayboff, Applications -> Accessorys -> Terminal
[04:59] <Dracie> type in firefox
[04:59] <Dracie> return
[04:59] <Crayboff> dracie, alright, ya, it didn't return any feedback
[04:59] <kc8pxy> Pengu1:  looks like i can confirm it on 64-bit ubuntu. 8.04
[04:59] <Dracie> I think firefox has a built in debug thingy
[04:59] <genii> FearMoth: Look up your computers model online?
[05:00] <Pengu1> kc8pxy, it works on 64-bit ubuntu?
[05:01] <Crayboff> aa, alright, is there any linux application which can handle ipods, ipod apps, and movies, and of course songs??
[05:01] <kc8pxy> Pengu1:  goes to lunch on 64-bit ubuntu.    neet to try 64-bit gentoo to confirm it to 64 though.    32-gentoo works.   i don't have ubuntu on this lappy
[05:01] <pHreaksYcle> Crayboff, Banshee
[05:02] <Crayboff> pHreaksYcle: it can do everything?
[05:02] <pHreaksYcle> not sure about the apps
[05:02] <pHreaksYcle> what do you mean by apps
[05:02] <Crayboff> pHreaksYcle: for ipod touches
[05:03] <pHreaksYcle> hmm.
[05:03] <Y-Town> So I have figured out that its shockwave flash thats creating firefox and seamonkey to crashes.   Anyone know what the possible conflicts could be with?
[05:03] <lvlefisto> i can't enable my mic with pulseaudio
[05:03] <Crayboff> syockit: did you figure anything out, can't recall or see if you said anything
 amorok does all that well except the movies i suggest vlc for that
 or mplayer
[05:04] <Pengu1> kc8pxy: Well if you confirm that it works on 64-bit, I wouldn't know what to tell you. If you don't, then he'll probably have to run it in 32 bit, if possible.
[05:04] <Pengu1> either way he'd probably have to do that, I suppose.
[05:04] <Crayboff> spidey, i'll look into it, thanks
[05:05] <Crayboff> well i'm using amarok right now but i'm having all sorts of problems with it
[05:05] <kc8pxy> anyone here versed in setting up 32-bit java on 64-bit ubuntu?
 like what?
[05:05] <pHreaksYcle> Crayboff, my buddy had the same deal, he said banshee was like heaven lol
[05:05] <pHreaksYcle> Crayboff, Banshee def. doesn't do apps
[05:05] <Pengu1> Crayboff, are you on KDE or Gnome?
[05:06] <ashok_> hey all i'm trying to play a video in totem, fullscreen, and it looks like the totem UI is flashing through from behind the fullscreen video every now and then
[05:06] <Crayboff> pengul, gnome
[05:06] <Pengu1> Well I'd recommend Banshee or Exaile for Gnome.
[05:06] <pHreaksYcle> word
[05:06] <pHreaksYcle> never heard of Exaile tho, need to check that out
[05:06] <Pengu1> Amorok is good, if you're running KDE.
 I use amorok in gnome with no probs yet even got a 3g ipod nano workin
[05:07] <fixmypod> hey guys i have a completely bricked ipod, cant get any operating system to detect it, do u guys have any idea how to fix it
[05:07] <ashok_> anyone, weird video flashing issues running in fullscreen?
[05:07] <Pengu1> Exaile is a clone of Amorok, more or less. Written in GTK
[05:07] <Crayboff> spideyman: i mean i have other problems, like it keeps starting up at boot and i can't stop it
[05:07] <pHreaksYcle> lol
 set it in start up options
[05:07] <Crayboff> CRAP, my firefox is worse off than i though, the back and forward buttons are broken
[05:07] <ashok_> @fixmypod I think you're in the wrong IRC for ipod support
[05:08] <Crayboff> spideyman: i already tried sessions
 reinstall firmware from itunes
[05:08] <Crayboff> spideyman: it's not in there
[05:08] <Pengu1> But yeah, Banshee is good if you like the iTunes or WMP style of music sorting, Exaile is better if you're into running music from active playlists constantly.
[05:08] <Crayboff> Pengu1: what about songbird?
[05:08] <fixmypod> spideyman: ubuntu doesnt even recognize the ipod, neither does any other operating system
[05:08] <Pengu1> I haven't tried it.
[05:08] <maxime> whats the difference between the splash screen and the USPLASH
[05:08] <pHreaksYcle> Crayboff, Banshee is also good if you just shuffle all of your shit all the time
[05:08] <fixmypod> spideyman: is there a way i could look in the /dev folder to manually flash the device ?
[05:09] <Pengu1> I've tried Exaile, Amorok, Banshee, Rythmbox, a few others. Banshee is my favorite.
[05:09] <Crayboff> Pengu1: you try songbird, though?
[05:09] <pHreaksYcle> @Pengu1 same, it has a pretty icon too
[05:09] <Pengu1> Crayboff, No, I haven't.
[05:09] <kyledr> anyone know what i have to install to get /usr/lib/win32/avisynth.dll? It's a codec for mplayer
 youd still have to gey the firmware from apple
[05:09] <spideyman> get
[05:09] <Crayboff> you know what, I'm starting to get really pissed with my computer right now. how could firefox fail me like this?
[05:09] <pHreaksYcle> lol
[05:09] <Pengu1> Yeah the Exaile icon is too close to Pidgin's. I keep thinking I have IM windows open.
[05:09] <pHreaksYcle> what in the world do you mean
[05:10] <Elijah2> I have a live cd in a Mac Pro with wireless mouse, the mouse does not work. How do I use the keyboard to get to the top bar?
[05:10] <shey> Can someone please assist me? rmmod ath9k and sudo modprobe -r ath9k causes my system to lockup and crash. I have tried it with both the module in use, and with networking disabled completely. Can someone please tell me how to go about removing this module so I can use my linksys WiFi adapter??

[05:11] <Pengu1> um, can't you just sudo remove firefox, then sudo apt-get install firefox?
[05:11] <Crayboff> pHreaksYcle: will that get rid of my addons?

[05:11] <Pengu1> or am I retarded.
[05:11] <tyler_d> whats the maximum mtu size?
[05:11] <pHreaksYcle> @Pengu1 will it wipe his addons??
[05:12] <pHreaksYcle> @Pengu1 I forgot how that works
[05:12] <Pengu1> I'm actually not sure.
[05:12] <pHreaksYcle> @Pengu1 same. . .
 what is the filesystem mac or pc
[05:12] <Pengu1> You know it could be your addons that are messing with it
[05:12] <Pengu1> try disabling all of them, crayboff.
[05:12] <Crayboff> we'll find out if apt-get removes the addons too
[05:12] <L3Tum> There's like 10000 people in here and nobody can help...
[05:12] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff hang on
[05:12] <Crayboff> oops too late
[05:12] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff lol
[05:13] <fixmypod> spideyman: i am on ubuntu right now

[05:13] <spideyman> !xorg
[05:13] <shey> after I alter the blacklist, I need to reboot?
[05:13] <Crayboff> pHreaksYcle: well that's assuming i didn't just pass the point of not caring about my computer
 the ipod filesystem?
[05:13] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff 10-4 haha
[05:14] <fixmypod> spideyman: its HFS something
[05:14] <Quontrex_Ashimi> Crayboff: you wouldnt be here if you had
[05:14] <Crayboff> alright, just doing apt-get remove than the apt-get install did nothing at all
 thats mac you need a macbook to see it
[05:14] <shey> Ubuntu on a macbook rocks.
[05:14] <Crayboff> FML
[05:14] <tsrk> I noticed my machines getting sudo updates today... what was that fixing?
[05:14] <Pengu1> Do you still have your addons, Crayboff?
[05:14] <shey> thats what I am using now.
[05:14] <fixmypod> spideyman: i tried a mac it doesnt read the ipod as a device
[05:15] <Crayboff> yes, pengul
[05:15] <shey> GREAT support.
[05:15] <Pengu1> Try disabling all of them
[05:15] <Crayboff> i've had these addons for a long time and nothing went wrong before
[05:15] <Pengu1> Hm.
[05:15] <tritium> Crayboff: of course not.  Your settings are in your home directory, and removing/reinstalling the package won't touch those.
 hang on
[05:15] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff addon updates may have changed things
[05:15] <shey> After I alter the modules blacklist.. do I need to reboot??
[05:15] <tritium> shey: no
[05:16] <kyledr> how can i get avisynth.dll for mplayer in /usr/lib/win32/? I tried installing all the non-free codecs i could find in medibuntu and all
[05:16] <pHreaksYcle> lol
[05:16] <shey> tritium: then what do I do to stop that module now?
[05:16] <tritium> shey: sudo modprobe -r <module name>
 use this link http://people.csail.mit.edu/adonovan/hacks/ipod.html
[05:16] <Crayboff> pHreaksYcle: well that did nothing
[05:16] <shey> tritium: cant, that causes my system to lockup and crash.
[05:16] <Pengu1> Hey crayboff, does VLC, totem and mplayer blink for you? or just 3d apps?
[05:17] <tritium> shey: which module?
[05:17] <Crayboff> Pengu1: umm i can check for you, if i had any videos to play on them
[05:17] <shey> tritium:  ath9k
[05:17] <Crayboff> Pengu1: i think it's a yes, though
[05:17] <tritium> shey: that's peculiar.
[05:17] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff /home/urname/Examples
[05:17] <L3Tum> OK I have determined my mouse problem definately has something to do with the serial port. It works just fine with usb. Anyone please?
[05:17] <Pengu1> Hm. My videos don't blink, but when I run something like xScreensaver or Google Earth it flickers contantly
[05:17] <pHreaksYcle> check there for a movie to play
[05:18] <fixmypod> spideyman: actually i have a fat32 probably, i used it with windows, sry for the confusion
[05:18] <tritium> L3Tum: what's the problem
[05:18] <tritium> ?
 its still a good read
[05:18] <shey> tritium: Im on a macbook 2,1; and according to forums and such, I had to compile the module myself, and now when I rmmod ath9k, the system just hangs. Theres a kernel bug with the ath9k module, it keeps dropping the connection.
[05:18] <Crayboff> yes, Pengu1 it does
[05:19] <fixmypod> spideyman: it shows using a firewire port tho, i dont know if my usb will work
[05:19] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff, you found a video in there?
[05:19] <Pengu1> Damn.
[05:19] <Crayboff> yes
[05:19] <tritium> shey: I see
[05:19] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff good i was guessing :P
[05:19] <Crayboff> lol
[05:19] <L3Tum> tritium, I can't get the mouse to work on my second machine running ubuntu. It quit working when I had Fedora, I installed ubuntu still doesn't work. I checked BIOS, as far as I can tell everything is right there. I tried changing to another mouse and neither work with the serial port, but when I use the usb mouse it does work
[05:19] <shey> tritium: so to get the blacklisted module to unload, I need to reboot no?
[05:19] <Pengu1> I wonder why my videos don't blink and yours do.
[05:20] <Pengu1> stupid compiz bugs.
[05:20] <tritium> L3Tum: is the "sermouse" module loaded?
[05:20] <pHreaksYcle> @Pengu1 in my experience, it's always Compiz' fault
[05:20] <pHreaksYcle> lol
 there all the same
[05:20] <tritium> shey: sounds like it, given what you described
[05:20] <Pengu1> do you know if it's a particular compiz feature?
[05:20] <L3Tum> tritium, I don't know, how do I check that?
[05:20] <Pengu1> because I'd sacrifice wobbly windows for a fix to this crap.
[05:20] <tritium> L3Tum: lsmod | grep sermouse
 the 3g nanos you have to manually set the firewire id
[05:20] <shey> L3Tum: you may wanna see if the serial port is connected INSIDE the machine. most people now disconnect it to save resources & ports.
[05:20] <pHreaksYcle> @Pengu1 its not the features, just the load on the chip
[05:20] <nanotube> Pengu1: well... why not just kill compiz and use metacity? it's stable as a rock.
[05:20] <shey> tritium: thanks for your help.
[05:21] <tritium> shey: sure.  Good luck.
[05:21] <shey> I will try to reboot. brb.
[05:21] <pHreaksYcle> @Pengu1 depending on how close it is, you can sometimes kill some features and be better off
[05:21] <Dracie> If I was to uprade to 9.04 alpha would I expect my nvidia drivers to stop working upon rebooting into the new kernel?
[05:21] <pHreaksYcle> @Pengu1 other times, it's a lost cause
[05:21] <fixmypod> spideyman: i went to /proc/bus/usb, the folder is empty
[05:21] <Pengu1> nanotube: much work to get that installed?
[05:21] <tritium> Dracie: yes, quite possibly
[05:21] <pHreaksYcle> @Dracie if you upgrade to 9.04, expect nothing to work
[05:21] <pHreaksYcle> @Dracie at least not yet
[05:21] <pHreaksYcle> @Dracie rule of thumb
[05:22] <Dracie> btw has anyone recompiled a kernel and recompiled nvidia nonfree to work with it?
[05:22] <Dracie> I couldn't get it to work following the wiki
[05:22] <fixmypod> spideyman: it says that /proc/bus/ieee394 should have "APPLE IPOD..." but my usb folder is just empty
[05:22] <tritium> Dracie: if you really have further questions about 9.04, /j #ubuntu+1
[05:22] <nanotube> Pengu1: not at all, it comes installed by default. if you just disable all desktop effects, metacity will be used instead of compiz.
[05:22] <bullgard4> What is a cgroup [= control group] as in http://pastebin.com/f6033690a?
[05:22] <Dracie> tritium, ok thx
[05:22] <Crayboff> hopefully rebooting my computer will fix all my problems? oh and I have a problem during startup/shutdown
[05:22] <Pengu1> Does anyone know offhand, all the compiz features that are enabled when running 'Normal' visual effects?
 linux is fickle with ipods it may look mounted or even transfer files but wont work
[05:23] <Dracie> Pengu1, get compiz config manager
 what model ipod is it?
[05:23] <Pengu1> I have that.
[05:23] <fixmypod> spideyman: its an ipod classic
[05:23] <pHreaksYcle> okay, i'm an IRC noob, can someone explain to me a few things
[05:23] <L3Tum> tritium, when I type lsmod | grep sermouse it says nothing. Also, the mouse did work until started trying to configure my network card, then it quit, so I know it is connected inside
[05:23] <fixmypod> spideyman: i cant get it to show as a device in windows either
[05:23] <pHreaksYcle> such as are there sub channels in this channel
[05:24] <pHreaksYcle> and how do i know what they are
 try gtkpod it worked well with my shuffle
[05:24] <tritium> L3Tum: ok, that means it's not connected.  Try "sudo modprobe sermouse" to load it.
[05:24] <b1n42y> pHreaksYcle: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FAQ
[05:24] <Crayboff> dracie, compiz config manager still requires too much from the video driver and still flashes
[05:24] <fixmypod> spideyman: k ill try that later
[05:24] <pHreaksYcle> @B1n43y muchas gracias
[05:24] <fixmypod> spideyman: tks for the help
[05:24] <Dracie> Crayboff, flashes?
[05:24] <spideyman> np
[05:25] <Crayboff> trying to fix the flashes is a hopeless cause until the gods make a brandnew driver
[05:25] <Sw3RvE> can someone please help me install wifi radar on xubuntu?
[05:25] <L3Tum> tritium, still nothing. Nothing printed, and no mouse control
[05:25] <Dracie> tritium, replug in your mouse and then try it
[05:25] <tritium> L3Tum: are you in X right now?  Try restarting gdm after you've loaded the module.
[05:26] <tritium> L3Tum: i.e., "sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart"
[05:26] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff get another gfx card?
[05:26] <Dracie> lol looks like i have been doing that wrong
[05:26] <borgista> hi, I am getting this error @ boot "can't find /init in /etc/fstab"
[05:26] <Dracie> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[05:26] <pHreaksYcle> @borgista that sucks
[05:26] <Pengu1> Dracie: ATI cards make OpenGL flicker like crazy with compiz on.
[05:26] <Crayboff> yes, dracie, flashes. the ATI driver sucks balls and 3d graphics and video flashes. ironically, it doesn't happen on youtube, so flash video still works
[05:26] <borgista> yup Pengu1
[05:26] <Dracie> I don't know what you guys are talking about
[05:26] <tritium> Dracie: that's another way to do it.
[05:27] <borgista> pHreaksYcle: any advice?
[05:27] <Dracie> 3300 HD works fine
[05:27] <tritium> Crayboff: watch the language, please
[05:27] <Pengu1> I've been trying to fix it too, borgista
[05:27] <Crayboff> sorry, tritium, i'm pissed off right now
[05:27] <pHreaksYcle> @borgista wait for someone more experienced
[05:27] <Dracie> Crayboff, youtube isn't opengl accel
[05:27] <borgista> Pengu1: so is it a  known bug?
[05:27] <L3Tum> tritium,  my screen went black and I have blinking cursor but cannot type anything, it didn't restart
[05:27] <Crayboff> i'm rebooting right now, brb
[05:27] <tritium> Crayboff: never mind that.  This channel needs to be kept family-friendly.
[05:27] <Crayboff> i know
[05:27] <Pengu1> It's known  but not widely reported
[05:27] <Dracie> borgista, you have a seperate boot partition?
[05:27] <Sw3RvE> can someone please help me???
[05:27] <Pengu1> I'm guessing not all Radeon cards are affected by it
[05:27] <borgista> Dracie: yes?
[05:28] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium i thought it was 13+
[05:28] <Pengu1> I have one too, Dracie
[05:28] <tritium> L3Tum: Ctrl-Alt-F7 doesn't take you back to X?
[05:28] <Pengu1> Same problem.
[05:28] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: no
[05:28] <qi> pppp
[05:28] <Dracie> borgista,  it seems it thinks your root file system is the same partition
[05:28] <borgista> damnit
[05:28] <Dracie> borgista, don't worry its an easy fix
[05:28] <borgista> Dracie: yay!!!
[05:29] <Dracie> borgista, do you know what the device name is of your root filesystem?
[05:29] <Pengu1> Dracie, what problem of his in particular are you trying to fix?
[05:29] <L3Tum> tritium,  no, I can go to terminal with alt+F1 but alt+f7 or alt+ctrl+f7 just goes to blank screen
[05:29] <borgista> root is /dev/sda7
[05:29] <Dracie> Pengu1, grub told his kernel to boot and root is his boot partition
[05:29] <tritium> L3Tum: can you try to load it again?  "sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start"
[05:29] <Pengu1> Oh, I thought you were talking about the flickering. Damn.
[05:29] <pHreaksYcle> i love linux
[05:29] <Dracie> borgista, ok you need to mount your boot partition somewhere and then edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file
[05:30] <borgista> it's mounted
[05:30] <mheath> I'm trying to connect to a Wireless network. In Windows, the required security settings involve configuring it to use TKIP and MSChapV2. In Ubuntu's NetworkManager, I see MSChapV2 related options but no TKIP. What am I missing?
[05:30] <borgista> i can access it Dracie
[05:30] <Dracie> borgista, open that file
[05:30] <L3Tum> tritium,  got it back, still no mouse
[05:30] <borgista> Dracie: I've got it open.
[05:31] <Dracie> borgista, do you know how to use pastebin?
[05:31] <tritium> L3Tum: any errors noted in /var/log/Xorg.0.log, particularly related to this issue?
[05:31] <borgista> Yes, Dracie
[05:31] <Dracie> L3Tum, also run dmesg | tail
[05:31] <Sw3RvE> i need Wi-Fi help...
[05:31] <Dracie> borgista, I want to see that file real quick before i start making you edit stuff
[05:31] <Huufarted> Problem guys:  I installed a gnome theme and untarred it not realizing it would overwrite  my current settings.  Any way to roll that back?
[05:31] <L3Tum> tritium, gedit /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[05:32] <tritium> L3Tum: you can, if you like
[05:32] <borgista> http://pastebin.com/d64366a5d Dracie
[05:32] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, whats the error on installtion?
[05:32] <Sw3RvE> i never got an error. i would like to install wifi radar. i read that i could use it on xubuntu.
[05:33] <borgista> Dracie: /boot is /dev/sda5
[05:33] <bullgard4> What is a cgroup [= control group] as in http://pastebin.com/f6033690a?
[05:33] <Huufarted> How do I restore the default gnome theme?
[05:33] <Dracie> hey borgista so the part of the line starting with kernel needs to be changed at the root=UUID=c92201a0-dc8d-4fac-9cbc-ffa60c5129ca
[05:33] <borgista> What does it need to be Dracie?
[05:34] <pHreaksYcle> @Huufarted on ubuntu? or just Gnome
[05:34] <Dracie> change it to root=/dev/sda8 (or whatever your root partition is)
[05:34] <borgista> ok
[05:34] <Huufarted> Ubuntu's default gnome theme.
[05:34] <billybigrigger> !flash
[05:34] <borgista> Dracie: Is that all?
[05:34] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, pastebin the error
[05:34] <Dracie> borgista, yes then it should work
[05:34] <billybigrigger> haha dapper!?!?!
[05:34] <Huufarted> I untarred a theme and did not realize it would take effect immediately.
[05:34] <billybigrigger> wow
[05:35] <borgista> Ok, Dracie....I'll reboot then come back. Thanks!
[05:35] <L3Tum> tritium,  I don't see anything that looks promising in either of those
[05:35] <Sw3RvE> Dracie, i never had an error. i just need help installing Wi-Fi Radar.
[05:35] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, isn't it in the repositories
[05:35] <tritium> L3Tum: normally, serial mouse support is provided via the sermouse module.
[05:35] <Sw3RvE> im using Xubuntu. i searched Add/Remove and nothing came up.
[05:35] <Crayboff> restarting my computer didn't work in fixing firefox
[05:36] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, go into a console
[05:36] <Crayboff> fml
[05:36] <pHreaksYcle> @Huufarted if you mean on ubuntu, System->Preferences->Appearance and click the Human theme
[05:36] <Pengu1> Crayboff, what media player did you end up picking
[05:36] <Sw3RvE> ok
[05:36] <b1n42y> Huufarted: system>preferences>appearance
[05:36] <Huufarted> pHreaksYcle, what about the default panels?  It modified the panels as well
[05:36] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, do apt-cache search wifi radar
[05:36] <Dracie> does a package that your looking for come up?
[05:36] <Crayboff> pengul, i haven't put that much thought into it yet. right now i'm trying to fix my firefox
[05:36] <pHreaksYcle> @Huufarted google is your friend, let me check that really quick, i had to do it once
[05:36] <Huufarted> pHreaksYcle: changing the appearance and theme doesn't modify the panel layouts
[05:37] <Dracie> Crayboff, whats wrong with it?
[05:37] <Crayboff> anyone know how to fix firefox?
[05:37] <Sw3RvE> sw3rve@sw3rve-laptop:~$ apt-cache search wifi radar
[05:37] <Sw3RvE> wifi-radar - graphical utility for managing Wi-Fi profiles
[05:37] <Pengu1> do you think it's something else doing it? or a problem with FF itself?
[05:37] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, sudo apt-get install wifi-radar
[05:37] <Huufarted> yeah I checked, phreaksycle, but haven't seen anything, yet.
[05:37] <pHreaksYcle> @Huufarted you have to delete that one settings folder for gnome
[05:37] <pHreaksYcle> @Huufarted gimme a sec
[05:37] <Dracie> I have never had an issue with firefox in linux except on rather slow machines
[05:37] <L3Tum> tritium, alright I'll try to do some more searching on sermouse. Thanks
[05:37] <pHreaksYcle> @Dracie cool lol
[05:37] <Pengu1> Dracie he said his back and front button stopped working
[05:37] <Sw3RvE> Thank you Dracie!
[05:37] <Pengu1> and his bookmarks were messed up.
[05:37] <Dracie> L3Tum, did you consult the ubuntu wiki?
[05:38] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, no problem
[05:38] <tritium> L3Tum: otherwise, check into your /etc/X11/xorg.conf InputDevice section.
[05:38] <Dracie> tritium, that won't work unless he changes settings in hal
[05:38] <pHreaksYcle> @Huufarted Word. http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/
[05:38] <Crayboff> dracie, alright, when I open up firefox it gives me a blank screen and nothing in the URL bar (no about:blank). my bookmarks bar is gone, it says its there, but there is nothing in it and I can't add anything to it
[05:38] <Sw3RvE> now will it be in Add/Remove?
[05:38] <tritium> L3Tum: if need be, you can "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[05:38] <L3Tum> trit I have done that before, and didn't see a mouse section
[05:38] <Huufarted> pHreaksYcle: oh snap
[05:39] <pHreaksYcle> @Huufarted Long story short: rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity
[05:39] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, i am totally not sure, you might want to look into using synaptic in System -> Administration -> Synpatic
[05:39] <Crayboff> dracie: also, I can't use the back/forward/refresh
[05:39] <L3Tum> tritium, I mean I have checked the /etc/X11/xorg.conf and no mouse section or inputdevice was in there
[05:39] <Dracie> Add/Remove only shows some packages
[05:39] <tritium> L3Tum: ok, never mind then
[05:39] <Huufarted> I see that, pHreaksYcle
[05:39] <Dracie> Crayboff, mv .firefox firefox.backup
[05:39] <Sw3RvE> where is that?
[05:39] <Dracie> then restart firefox
[05:39] <L3Tum> tritium, should there be one in there? I don't know how to add one
[05:40] <tritium> L3Tum: did you follow this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto ?
[05:40] <Sw3RvE> i have System...
[05:40] <pHreaksYcle> @Huufarted okay cool. didnt want to make you read haha
[05:40] <Crayboff> what do you want me to do with that?
[05:40] <Dracie> System -> Administration -> Synpatic
[05:40] <Sw3RvE> oh the package manager
[05:40] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, yup
[05:40] <Dracie> Crayboff, your config is probably meesing you up
[05:40] <tritium> Dracie: it should work
[05:40] <Crayboff> alright, so what do you want me to do with it?
[05:40] <Dracie> tritium, configs kill everything
[05:40] <Dracie> Crayboff, just move it from .mozilla
[05:40] <Dracie> back it up
[05:41] <Dracie> and restart firefox
[05:41] <APALAH_ARTINYA_N> cE_pLanEth
[05:41] <Dracie> anyone here use a custom kernel in ubuntu?
[05:41] <Sw3RvE> ok im in Synaptic. it looks like its already applied?
[05:41] <pHreaksYcle> @Huufarted, did it work??
[05:41] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, Sorry I meant to just show you that way of managing packages - its more advanced than add/remove
[05:42] <Crayboff> dracie, now i can't even find it, where is it?
[05:42] <tritium> Dracie: that's such a vague response, I don't know what you are referring to
[05:42] <Dracie> Crayboff, control + h if your in the file browser
[05:42] <L3Tum> tritium, I didn't see that before, I saw some similar and entered Section "InputDevice"   Identifier "Generic Mouse"  Driver "Mouse"   EndSection (on their own lines of course) but this did not help. I'll try to edit to exactly what this link says
[05:42] <Crayboff> no, no, what folder is it in?
[05:42] <Crayboff> /home/usrname/? dracie?
[05:42] <Sw3RvE> its cool. how do i use wi-fi radar now. it says Section: Networking Universe
[05:42] <Dracie> Crayboff, /home/username/
[05:42] <Dracie> yup
[05:43] <tritium> L3Tum: ok
[05:43] <Sw3RvE> so far the wifi thing is the only thing i dont like about xubuntu. overall i think its way better than ubuntu :)
[05:43] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, thats cool =]
[05:44] <pHreaksYcle> @Sw3RvE I miss certain things about GNOME when i leave
[05:44] <Dracie> Crayboff, do you see the .mozilla file
[05:44] <pHreaksYcle> @Sw3RvE it makes me sad
[05:44] <Dracie> you have to enable view hiddle files
[05:44] <Sw3RvE> so how do i run it now. i cant find it...
[05:44] <Crayboff> dracie, yes i am there
[05:44] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, wifi radar?
[05:44] <rob1336> i do like the gnome also
[05:44] <Sw3RvE> yes dracie. where in the world is it. lol
[05:44] <Dracie> Crayboff, ok then restart firefox once you moved .mozilla out of that name
[05:44] <pHreaksYcle> @rob1336 lol good to hear, ur in the right place
[05:44] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, not sure probably in the Applicatoins menu
[05:45] <Dracie> sorry guys but I am doing this all from memory, i am on Backtrack 3 lol
[05:45] <Crayboff> dracie, wait, do you want me to change the .mozilla name?
[05:45] <Sw3RvE> its not in there dracie. do i need to reboot or something?
[05:45] <Crayboff> ohh, nvm you want me to move it out of my /home/usr
[05:45] <Dracie> Crayboff, yes to something like say .mozilla-backup
[05:45] <Crayboff> username
[05:46] <Dracie> Crayboff, it doesn't matter just as long as if you keep it in home/username name it something else
[05:46] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, might be in System -> Admin
[05:46] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff just like drag it to the friggin desktop lol
[05:46] <Sw3RvE> There is no Admin tab in System.
[05:47] <tritium> Sw3RvE: Administration
[05:47] <Dracie> oh yeah Xubuntu's interface is different
[05:47] <Crayboff> alright, i did drag it to the desktop
[05:47] <Sw3RvE> they dont have that. im using Xubuntu.
[05:47] <Crayboff> uhoh
[05:47] <Dracie> Crayboff, does it work now
[05:48] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff lol, it's back to default right? supposed to be ur settings are not where they're supposed to be
[05:48] <Crayboff> yes
[05:48] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff it made a new set of config files, but you can set it back later if you want
[05:48] <Dracie> so it works?
[05:48] <Sw3RvE> grrr
[05:48] <azlon> my close, minimize and maximize buttons are on the left, how can i change them to the right?
[05:48] <Sw3RvE> i feel like elmer fudd. im never going to find this rabbit. lol
[05:48] <Dracie> lol
[05:48] <Crayboff> Dracie: do I have to redownload all of the addons and the themes?
[05:49] <Dracie> Crayboff, no you can recombine the addons i think
[05:49] <Crayboff> so like drag it over?
[05:49] <Dracie> -_- i wish i knew how
[05:49] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff indeed
[05:49] <Dracie> lolz
[05:49] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff just find the folder with the addons in it
[05:49] <pHreaksYcle> hang on, ill tell you
[05:50] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff probably the one that says extensions, huh?
[05:50] <Sw3RvE> i installed and upgraded open office 3.0. i didnt have this problem with that.
[05:50] <Crayboff> pHreaksYcle: well if you look in the other folder you'll find all of the info for the addons
[05:50] <Sw3RvE> i cant find wifi radar... :(
[05:50] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, it'll be somewhere in the menu
[05:50] <Dracie> what about networking
[05:51] <Sw3RvE> its not in there. thats the first place i looked.
[05:51] <pHreaksYcle> @Sw3RvE its not that we dont love you, but perhaps you'd be better off in the Xubuntu channel??
[05:51] <Sw3RvE> they have one?
[05:51] <tritium> Sw3RvE: #xubuntu
[05:51] <Sw3RvE> oh lol
[05:51] <pHreaksYcle> @Sw3RvE i guess this means i win :P
[05:52] <pHreaksYcle> @Sw3RvE good luck
[05:52] <Sw3RvE> ill try there. thanks for the help. at least its installed i think lol
[05:52] <pHreaksYcle> well that makes me feel better
[05:52] <quentusrex> Help. Ubuntu has broke after an update...
[05:52] <Sw3RvE> grrr its not on my Xchat list.
[05:52] <quentusrex> in particular it seems GDM broke.
[05:53] <tritium> quentusrex: please be more specific
[05:53] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex explain
[05:53] <tritium> Sw3RvE: /join #xubuntu
[05:53] <Sw3RvE> whats the command to join another chat. i used to know it.
[05:53] <pHreaksYcle> @Sw3RvE haha. . .
[05:53] <quentusrex> I boot up just fine. But when I log in, I get an error that I should contact a system admin because the Power Management Settings are not configured properly.
[05:53] <Sw3RvE> man this chat is a ghost town. no ones talking. lol
[05:54] <Sw3RvE> the xubuntu one...
[05:54] <quentusrex> Then the gdm panels don't appear, the two applications(pidgin and thunderbird) that I have setup to auto start, start. But there isn't the title bar(with the minimize, and close boxes)
[05:54] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex what laptop
[05:54] <quentusrex> None of the icons or desktop wall paper show up.
[05:54] <quentusrex> It's a desk top...
[05:55] <Sw3RvE> how do i add the xubuntu chat to my server list?
[05:55] <tritium> Sw3RvE: depends on your IRC client
[05:55] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex then ur hosed lol. BIOS and a reinstall sounds about right
[05:55] <Sw3RvE> Xchat
[05:55] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex at least, that's how i would fix it.
[05:55] <tritium> quentusrex: note that the panels are not part of gdm, actually.  gdm is simply the graphicla login manager
[05:55] <Aly> What do I do if Ubuntu won't allow me to download any plugins in order to get on the internet, and if practically nothing will work and it won't let me do anything because of no disk space apparently but it won't let me remove files or anything? It also won't allow me to create other accounts...I've tried recovery and everything, it won't do anything, and it's becoming so irritating.
[05:55] <tritium> !ur | pHreaksYcle
[05:55] <atom^x> Sw3RvE, if you want it in the menu look @ /usr/share/applications   - i think
[05:56] <pHreaksYcle> @ubottu I will fight you
[05:56] <azlon> my close, minimize and maximize buttons are on the left, how can i change them to the right?
[05:56] <quentusrex> tritium: Then it might not be GDM. Something is borked...  I can't afford to wipe and reinstall...
[05:56] <tritium> quentusrex: that is rarely necessary
[05:56] <pHreaksYcle> !kindness | ubottu
[05:57] <pHreaksYcle> @ubottu i know :P
[05:57] <quentusrex> tritium: Alright, it seems I can't type any letters(they don't show up) but ctrl+alt+backspace still restarts X.
[05:57] <pHreaksYcle> wired keyboard?
[05:57] <Sw3RvE> /usr/share/applications   <<<< put that in terminal?
[05:57] <quentusrex> yes, wired keyboard.
[05:57] <pHreaksYcle> after you get logged in
[05:57] <pHreaksYcle> unplug
[05:57] <pHreaksYcle> and replug
[05:57] <quentusrex> the keyboard works find to login.
[05:57] <Sw3RvE> or are you referring to Xchat?
[05:58] <tritium> !enter | pHreaksYcle
[05:58] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium i guess this means you are a vet.
[05:58] <tritium> quentusrex: this behavior started when?
[05:58] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: no, but I do love animals
[05:58] <quentusrex> tritium: I just rebooted an hour ago after an upgrade...
[05:59] <quentusrex> tritium: I can still type. just not into thunderbird... Pidgin works still...
[05:59] <quentusrex> it's really weird...
[05:59] <tritium> quentusrex: which release?  Which packages were upgraded?
[05:59] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium lol. i wasn't trying to be a d when i asked if it was 13+
[05:59] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium cut me a break
[05:59] <atom^x> Sw3RvE, look in that dir the menu items are files that end in .desktop
[05:59] <quentusrex> tritium: 8.10 and I don't remember which packages...
[05:59] <L3Tum> tritium, I have done everything on that page, and nothing has worked. Actually, the last thing on that page says to enter through until I get to the part with the mouse and it has no section for the mouse, like the mouse doesn't exist at all.
[06:00] <quentusrex> tritium: I have tried dpkg-reconfigure gdm and that didn't do anything...
[06:00] <tritium> quentusrex: I wouldn't expect that to.  Have you restarted gdm at all?  have you rebooted at all?
[06:00] <Sw3RvE> oh i see you meant in the directory
[06:00] <quentusrex> is there a different package I should reconfigure? I tried to boot into failsafe gnome, and it was still the same problem.
[06:01] <quentusrex> tritium: I've rebooted about 6 times...
[06:01] <atom^x> Sw3RvE, there may be one for the app you installed, just need to add it to the proper group
[06:01] <quentusrex> and ctrl+alt+backspace about a dozen times.
[06:01] <Sw3RvE> i found it.
[06:01] <tritium> L3Tum: hmm, puzzling
[06:01] <Sw3RvE> i right clicked and clicked execute and it didnt work. i got an error.
[06:01] <tritium> quentusrex: fair enough
[06:01] <ScottG489> Is there I way I can effectively write 2 separate commands on 1 line? Like say I want to "killall <process>" and then on the same line start it again. How would I split it up?
[06:01] <quentusrex> tritium: What controls the panels, and the 'frame' for the windows?
[06:02] <pHreaksYcle> gnome
[06:02] <ScottG489> nvm
[06:02] <tritium> ScottG489: with && in between
[06:02] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex gnome-panel or panels is the process i believe
[06:02] <jtaji> ScottG489: cmd1 && cmd2 will only execute cmd2 if cmd1 is successfull, you might want cmd1; cmd2, which will run cmd2 regardless
[06:02] <Sw3RvE> Failed to execute child process "su-to-root" (No such file or directory).
[06:02] <atom^x> Sw3RvE, you will need to edit the file, look at a similar .desktop file
[06:02] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex it's gnome-panel
[06:03] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium correct?
[06:03] <Aly> It won't let me do any of the updates.
[06:03] <Sw3RvE> atom^x such as??
[06:03] <quentusrex> I've sshed into the desktop from another machine...
[06:03] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: yes
[06:04] <Dracie> Sw3RvE, if you want to have something like root # just do sudo -i
[06:04] <atom^x> Sw3RvE, try reading up here ->http://wiki.xfce.org/faq
[06:04] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex if you end gnome-panel it should restart automagically
[06:04] <pHreaksYcle> kill or w/e
[06:04] <Sw3RvE> what section do i read?
[06:05] <tritium> quentusrex: sounds like this problem may be affecting others, from what I'm learning
[06:05] <quentusrex> pHreaksYcle: gnome-panels isn't running
[06:05] <Seraph787> hello
[06:05] <Seraph787> anybody know anything about USB sound cards?
[06:06] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex well, the obvious choice would be to start it with the command gnome-panel
[06:06] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex unless you have an objection to this for some reason?
[06:06] <tritium> quentusrex: no trailing "s"
[06:06] <Seraph787> mine is spitting out "not enough bandwidth" to dmesg
[06:06] <quentusrex> sure, I'll start it manually...
[06:06] <pHreaksYcle> @Seraph787 bandwidth of sound. . . ?
[06:06] <Seraph787> USB
[06:07] <Seraph787> I think it might have to do with thinking its a different device
[06:07] <Melik> my sound just randomly stopped working, how can i restart my sound services?
[06:07] <Seraph787> It says "Storm HP-USB500 5.1 Headset"
[06:07] <pHreaksYcle> @Seraph787 as i know nothing of the subject, I will entertain you with a question
[06:07] <Seraph787> but its actually a cm106 sound card
[06:07] <pHreaksYcle> @Seraph787 why would you use a USB sound card
[06:07] <Seraph787> Cause it has 5.1 sound
[06:07] <Seraph787> and my laptop does not
[06:07] <atom^x> Sw3RvE, dont remember right off, look for .desktop file references
[06:07] <pHreaksYcle> @Seraph787 o i c. thank you.
[06:07] <Dracie> anyone here rebuild their ubuntu kernel?
[06:08] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: you keep causing my morse code script to decode your ". . ." as "EE"
[06:08] <Melik> my sound just randomly stopped working, how can i get my sound working again without restarting my computer?
[06:08] <Seraph787> Melik: which sound services
[06:08] <Seraph787> you have alsa, pulse audio
[06:08] <Seraph787> esd
[06:08] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium it's correct english :P
[06:08] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: er, ". .", rather
[06:08] <Melik> Seraph787, honestly i dont know i did sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio stop and then start
[06:08] <Sw3RvE> "Setting up GDM" ???
[06:08] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium sorry ill try to remember this
[06:08] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: no, ellipses don't have spaces in-between
[06:08] <Melik> but it still wont work, i think its alsa
[06:09] <Seraph787> most likely
[06:09] <Seraph787> check the system messages
[06:09] <quentusrex> tritium: how do I open a terminal? is there a short cut key for that?
[06:09] <Seraph787> brb
[06:09] <Melik> how can i restart alsa service?
[06:09] <quentusrex> or open a terminal on a different display
[06:09] <tritium> quentusrex: Alt-F2, then type gnome-terminal
[06:09] <quentusrex> alt-f2 does not respond.
[06:10] <atom^x> Sw3RvE, look here ->http://wiki.xfce.org/tips   --under adding an application
[06:10] <chelz> how risky is it to use debian debs, say from debian experimental, in intrepid?
[06:10] <Sw3RvE> atom^x someone in the xubuntu is helping me. if it doesnt work i'll read that and try.
[06:10] <tritium> chelz: you should not.  Which packages do you need?
[06:10] <quentusrex> tritium: Is there a way to have it open a terminal on login?
[06:10] <Sw3RvE> im editing the text file.
[06:10] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium lol Most style guides call for a space between the dots. Typesetters and page designers use something called a thin space or a non-breaking space that prevents the ellipsis points from getting spread over two lines in a document
[06:11] <Angelus_Delapsus> How does one cd to a removeable drive in shell. Due to a crash I can't login, and i'm trying to copy all my files in my documents to my external
[06:11] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium all in good humor :P
[06:11] <savvas> chelz: try https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas first
[06:11] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: ok, but please keep it short, or on topic
[06:11] <chelz> tritium: virt-manager 0.6.1  i'm trying to get rid of some issues and i'm hoping using a later version would help
[06:11] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium what exactly does your "morse code" script do
[06:11] <chelz> savvas: https://launchpad.net/~saispo/+archive/ppa/+build/863791 i did see this, i'm not sure how to use it though
[06:12] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: encode and decode morse code (it's an irssi script)
[06:12] <Sw3RvE> thanks for that link. i bookmarked it.
[06:12] <tritium> chelz: you'd be better off pulling in the source package from jaunty, and building it on intrepid
[06:12] <Angelus_Delapsus> All: How does one cd to a removeable drive in shell. Due to a crash I can't login, and i'm trying to copy all my files in my documents to my external
[06:12] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium that's neat. is it like a secret thing you do with some people or something?
[06:12] <chelz> tritium: alright. thanks for the help. :)
[06:13] <tritium> !info virt-manager jaunty
[06:13] <tritium> chelz: ^^
[06:13] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: nope
[06:13] <savvas> chelz: https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=virt-manager - each ppa has its own page with a description and deb repository info
[06:13] <atom^x> Sw3RvE, no prob
[06:13] <chelz> savvas: ah, ty
[06:13] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium a novelty?
[06:14] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: just one of the scripts that comes with irssi-scripts
[06:14] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium never heard of this irssi. google time.
[06:14] <quentusrex> tritium: do you know of another way to open a terminal? alt+f2 doesn't respond...
[06:14] <Angelus_Delapsus> phreaks: ircii is the program used in terminal to use irc
[06:14] <latit> Angelus_Delapsus, mount it
[06:14] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: ssh + screen + irssi is a very convenient combination
[06:15] <Angelus_Delapsus> mount E:
[06:15] <Angelus_Delapsus> that sort of thing?
[06:15] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex there's a way you can drop into a fullscreen one with Fsomething and another modifier key
[06:15] <tritium> quentusrex: remind me.  You're in gnome?
[06:16] <quentusrex> tritium: yes.
[06:16] <quentusrex> how do I list all displays from the command line?
[06:16] <bnagy> dammit, apt is trying to hose my system again
[06:16] <tritium> quentusrex: if Alt-F2 doesn't open a dialog, something else is going on as well
[06:16] <bnagy> xulrunner1.9 wouldn
[06:16] <chelz> https://edge.launchpad.net/~saispo/+archive/ppa/+sourcepub/490669/+listing-archive-extra - why isn't the i386 link working..?
[06:16] <bnagy> 't install, removed it, that somehow removed sudo
[06:16] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium you know what im talking about??
[06:16] <chelz> #  virt-manager_0.6.1-1ubuntu1~ppa1_i386.deb i mean
[06:16] <bnagy> which is bad
[06:17] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: Ctrl-Alt-F#, to switch to virtual console #.  Is that what you're referring to?
[06:17] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium indeed.
[06:17] <quentusrex> tritium: any ideas?
[06:18] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex Ctrl-Alt-F2 will get you a command line, but it moves the whole screen to it
[06:18] <Crayboff> g'night all ya
[06:18] <Crayboff> thanks for all ya help
[06:18] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex so be sure you're set before you go
[06:18] <savvas> chelz: as I said, you should visit the ppa page, you would see the deb source http link: http://ppa.launchpad.net/saispo/ppa/ubuntu - http://ppa.launchpad.net/saispo/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/v/virt-manager/
[06:18] <pHreaksYcle> @Crayboff no problem, see ya
[06:18] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: nothing wrong with V.C. #1, you know
[06:19] <tritium> chelz, savvas: good to know.  I didn't realize there was a PPA for virt-manager
[06:19] <quentusrex> pHreaksYcle: I did that... but that is no more help than the ssh session...
[06:19] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium i do know haha. f2 is built into my muscle pattern better, therefore its my default
[06:19] <chelz> savvas: ahh. ty :D
[06:19] <tritium> The jaunty source package is sitll an option, as well, of course.
[06:19] <Dracie_> ugh BT3 totally froze up
[06:19] <savvas> tritium: it's not official, it's a personal package of someone there :P
[06:19] <chelz> tritium: yeah. hoping this works though
[06:19] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex what are you trying to do in the command line again? i missed that part
[06:19] <quentusrex> tritium: what is suppose to start after gdm?
[06:19] <bnagy> so.. anyone? how to get sudo back without sudo?
[06:19] <tritium> savvas: understood
[06:19] <quentusrex> pHreaksYcle: I'm trying to get a list of active displays
[06:20] <tritium> bnagy: how did you "lose" sudo?
[06:20] <bnagy> apt hates me
[06:20] <tritium> quentusrex: many things
[06:20] <tritium> bnagy: serious answer, please
[06:20] <bnagy> xulrunner 1.9 wouldn't install, removed it to try and reinstall
[06:20] <bnagy> somehow that killed sudo in the process
[06:20] <savvas> bnagy: how did you lose sudo in the first place?
[06:20] <quibbler> bnagy: i just recieved sudo as an update...try in terminal  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[06:20] <bnagy> which I didn't expect :(
[06:20] <Dexi> is there an easy way to recover a deleted file? like a tool i can download?
[06:20] <pHreaksYcle> @quibbler HE CAN'T SUDO
[06:21] <pHreaksYcle> @quibbler lmao
[06:21] <bnagy> quibbler: start at the start - no sudo ;)
[06:21] <pHreaksYcle> @all we rely on sudo too much haha
[06:21] <bnagy> my greater problem is that I have corrupted package files, like often
[06:21] <tritium> bnagy: you're suggesting you don't have "sudo" installed?  Please verify with "apt-cache policy sudo"
[06:21] <Myrtti> pHreaksYcle: I don't find this funny
[06:21] <bnagy> but anyway, that comes and goes
[06:21] <pHreaksYcle> @Myrtti sorry to hear that.
[06:21] <Dracie_> woops I fail i killed my dri
[06:21] <savvas> bnagy: boot using the live cd, mount your root "/" partition, edit the etc/sudoers file in there
[06:22] <bnagy> tritium: it says it's there
[06:22] <savvas> bnagy: or.. reboot your pc to the recovery option
[06:22] <tritium> bnagy: ok, now please describe what you observe, then, in trying to use sudo
[06:22] <tritium> bnagy: also, what version do you have?
[06:22] <B1OS> ahh
[06:22] <bnagy> The program 'sudo' can be found in the following packages: * sudo
[06:23] <pHreaksYcle> @bnagy sounds like failure to me.
[06:23] <bnagy> 1.6.9p17-1ubuntu2.1
[06:23] <chelz> tritium: is there a way to install only virt-manager and its dependencies from jaunty repos but not have it try to update all the packages i already have?
[06:23] <pHreaksYcle> @Dracie what do you mean
[06:23] <B1OS> i just pressed ctrl+alt+F2 in the terminal, how do i get out lol :D
[06:24] <Milkeh> how to I apply a .patch file
[06:24] <Dracie_> pHreaksYcle: I tried to build my own kernel for a couple reasons but somehwere inthe cycle I ruined my nvidia module stuff
[06:24] <savvas> B1OS: ctrl-alt-F7
[06:24] <bnagy> tritium: but there's no sudo in /etc/bin or /etc/sbin
[06:24] <Dracie_> lol
[06:24] <tritium> chelz: that depends on the dependencies.  that's why I advised you just build it from source package
[06:24] <tritium> bnagy: one moment, please
[06:24] <bnagy> np
[06:24] <B1OS> savvas: thanks :)
[06:24] <chelz> tritium: well it has a lot of dependencies. takes a while to grab all the debs myself
[06:24] <Dracie_> man there should be a distro just designed to install other distros
[06:25] <pHreaksYcle> @Dracie yeah that blows
[06:25] <tritium> chelz: build dependencies?
[06:25] <pHreaksYcle> @Dracie i try to stay out of that hardcore stuff.
[06:25] <Dracie_> pHreaksYcle: yeah I'll handle it but yeah lol, etqw fails without realtime kernel support
[06:25] <Milkeh> does anybody know how to apply a .patch file?
[06:25] <bnagy> Milkeh: man patch?
[06:25] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: If you haven't got it already, active screens and all their gory details can be had with: xdpyinfo
[06:25] <chelz> tritium: yeah. like the versions of the ones i already have installed through intrepid repos aren't late enough
[06:25] <savvas> bnagy: I already told you what to do, reboot your computer, in the boot options choose the "ubuntu ... (recovery mode)" - you will have root privileges and do whatever necessary.
[06:25] <tritium> !patch | Milkeh
[06:26] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: unable to run it, because it can't open display...
[06:26] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: Ahhh!
[06:26] <Milkeh> bnagy, I have a pidgin script that doesn't work with my version of banshee but somebody made a patch for it, I just don't know how to apply it.
[06:26] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium how do  you ever log off of this? its ADDICTING
[06:26] <tritium> chelz: I see what you mean, looking at the depends myself
[06:26] <|PiP|> would running background processes use less memory if they are triggered by a controller action when using passenger?
[06:26] <bnagy> savvas: hm, ok - I didn't see any boot options last time, will look again properly
[06:26] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: I don't log off (part of the advantage of screen + irssi).  I can connect from anywhere via ssh.
[06:27] <savvas> bnagy: pressing Esc while booting might help:)
[06:27] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium that's sickness. how long have you been running this show
[06:27] <obf213> firefox doesn't register pluging changes i want to use vlc plugin for wmv files and asf, so i select the pluging it but its like it doesn't register me selecting and it doesnt show up as an option
[06:27] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: I'm not the only op, but I've been one since 2005
[06:27] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium i figured you weren't god, but at least his friend
[06:28] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium good for you, hardened warrior. that's cool to help people

[06:28] <B10S> wheres a good place to read up on securing my ubuntu web server?
[06:28] <Zlogger> hi
[06:28] <quentusrex> tritium: do you know where I can go for help figuring out what broke? and how to fix it?
[06:29] <tritium> quentusrex: a couple of us are looking into it now.
[06:29] <pHreaksYcle> @B10S digg. google. search for securing ubuntu server. either site should help
[06:29] <quentusrex> tritium: thanks.
[06:29] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: Are you stuck without Xorg then?
[06:29] <Dracie_> heh I messed so much stuff its almost worth to reinstall
[06:29] <Milkeh> tritium, I have a pidgin script that doesn't work with my version of banshee but somebody made a patch for it, I just don't know how to apply it.
[06:29] <B1OS> okies
[06:29] <pHreaksYcle> @Dracie I love reinstalling
[06:29] <Maged> Hi, I have a question about connecting to my site using FTP
[06:29] <pHreaksYcle> @Milkeh what script
[06:29] <tritium> Milkeh: patches are applied to source.  Are you recompiling it?
[06:29] <Dracie_> pHreaksYcle: its pretty nice and simple in ubuntu lolz, gentoo isn't too hard to me after awhile
[06:30] <Dracie_> btw gentoo fails - their ops banned me because my router is exploitable - losers
[06:30] <Maged> Failed to retrieve directory listing --->>>>>>>>What this error is about?
[06:30] <axscode> what to install to make ubuntu support squashfs mounting?

[06:31] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: Have you tried creating a new, fresh, user profile and logging in with that? If that works, at least you know the issue is a per-profile configuration issue, not system-wide
[06:31] <pHreaksYcle> @Milkeh it DOES work with banshee
[06:31] <Dracie_> Maged: what are you writing?
[06:31] <Milkeh> pHreaksYcle, I have the newest version of the plugin, I just need to apply the patch
[06:31] <pHreaksYcle> @Dracie i'm using it right now on banshee

[06:33] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: what client are you using, that puts the @ in front of each nick?
[06:33] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: And, try logging in as "testuser"

[06:35] <Milkeh> pHreaksYcle, oh I'm using banshee 1.2.1, could this be why?
[06:35] <Dracie_> savvas: I don't htink so
[06:35] <pHreaksYcle> @Milkeh maybe. worth a shot.

[06:36] <Dracie_> savvas: yes I don't use java much at all either

[06:36] <roy_hobbs> I'm having trouble getting gedit's open location feature to work.  I can do this over ssh right?  What's the syntax?
[06:36] <quentusrex> oops.
[06:36] <quentusrex> rebooted the wrong computer...
[06:37] <bnagy> ifup eth0 didn't seem to work...
[06:37] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex lol
[06:37] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: lol doh! :D
[06:37] <Dracie_> roy_hobbs: did you do ssh -X host ?
[06:37] <savvas> bnagy: which release are you using?
[06:37] <atom^x> !ccsm
[06:37] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: I added the user, and restarted gdm same problem for both users.
[06:37] <sastha> pHreaksYcle: actually in Virtual box,Windows XP is the host and Ubuntu runs as Guest.I tried to get the Shared folders from XP to Ubuntu.
[06:37] <savvas> bnagy: have you tried "sudo /etc/init.d/networking start" ?
[06:37] <roy_hobbs> Dracie_: no, i mean from within gedit
[06:37] <pHreaksYcle> @sastha do you have samba installed on ubuntu
[06:37] <bnagy> savvas: nope, never heard of that command :)
[06:37] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: That's good... now you know it is a system-wide issue. What Ubuntu release, machine architecture, and kernel version is it?
[06:37] <bnagy> I came from gentoo
[06:37] <sastha> pHreaksYcle: no
[06:38] <roy_hobbs> I think you can do things like sftp://user@host
[06:38] <bnagy> :)
[06:38] <savvas> bnagy: ok, which release are you using now?
[06:38] <pHreaksYcle> @sastha oops

[06:38] <sastha> pHreaksYcle: i used the command 'sudo mount -t vboxsf sharedfolder locationtosavefolder'
[06:38] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: What video chipset does the PC have? What driver are you using - is it a proprietary driver?

[06:39] <atom^x> !ccsm > mandar
[06:39] <sastha> pHreaksYcle: k :)
[06:39] <tritium> bnagy: that would have been useful info before.  You're not running official ubuntu?
[06:39] <pHreaksYcle> @sastha http://www.ubuntu1501.com/2008/01/quick-dirty-samba-guide.html
[06:39] <savvas> bnagy: 32-bit or 64-bit?
[06:39] <bnagy> savvas: I'd give you a link, but xulrunner is dead so firefox is dead etc etc
[06:39] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: Great... are you (trying) to use a proprietary fglx driver ?
[06:39] <bnagy> 32
[06:39] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: I'm using the open source driver I'm pretty sure. Because the closed source ati driver doesn't support my card any more.
[06:40] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: okay, that might help :)
[06:40] <bnagy> tritium: I don't know about official - it's just ubuntu
[06:40] <atom^x> !squashfs-tools
[06:40] <savvas> bnagy: download this to someplace handy: wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/s/sudo/sudo_1.6.9p17-1ubuntu2.1_i386.deb
[06:40] <bnagy> AFAIR it's run by the ubuntu peeps
[06:40] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: but I do remember seeing a fglx-modaliases package when I was upgrading...
[06:40] <pHreaksYcle> @atom^x lol how many times are ya gona try that
[06:40] <sastha> pHreaksYcle: Thanks.But do you know how to resolve this "Protocol error"?
[06:40] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: so that might have broke something...
[06:41] <bnagy>  wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/s/sudo/sudo_1.6.9p17-1ubuntu2.1_i386.deb
[06:41] <U-b-u-n-t-u> pidgin is overlapping with another desktop and when I try to Maximize it it just shifts back and forth .... how do I get it to fit the screen?
[06:41] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: Have you reviewed the log-files when GDM starts? /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /var/log/gdm/:0.log and /var/log/gdm/failsafe.log
[06:41] <pHreaksYcle> @sastha how can i explain this, the protocal is SMB
[06:41] <vf1j> Anyone work with the cups website?
[06:41] <pHreaksYcle> samba
[06:41] <vf1j> To configure the printer?
[06:41] <pHreaksYcle> if you dont have samba, the protocol will throw an error
[06:41] <atom^x> pHreaksYcle, 1 for squashfs and 1 for squashfs-tools
[06:41] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: You might be onto something with that reference to fglx - keep it in mind
[06:41] <Scunizi> vf1

[06:42] <vf1j> Scunizi: I do not understand
[06:42] <extreme_> why does it only see 3 gigs
[06:42] <spree> I have an issue. I have an OOOOOLD Automatix installation. I installed Swiftweasel with it. I want to remove swiftweasel and install the new version properly. I am running Intrepid. I also need to uninstall Automatix and have no clue how to go about doing it
[06:42] <extreme_> when i have 4 in it?
[06:42] <savvas> bnagy: ah wait, no sudo.. heh
[06:42] <bnagy> savvas: yeah, sry the paste was terminal fart
[06:42] <pHreaksYcle> @extreme_ 32BIT
[06:42] <Scunizi> vf1j: open firefox and use that as the address to get to Cups
[06:42] <savvas> bnagy: I trust that you know the directory it is in now, right?
[06:42] <extreme_> x86_64 is 32 bit?!
[06:42] <bnagy> can I install it in my home dir and run it?
[06:42] <bnagy> yep
[06:42] <vf1j> Scunizi: Yes, sorry--that is the site I am on!
[06:43] <pHreaksYcle> @extreme_ lol
[06:43] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: the only interesting thing, and it was the last thing in the logs: AUDIT: Tue Feb 17 22:36:45 2009: 8581 X: client 4 rejected from local host ( uid=0 gid=0 pid=8635 )
[06:43] <vf1j> Scunizi: There is a drop file and the HP1020 is not there
[06:43] <extreme_> wait i'm so fucking confused
[06:43] <extreme_> please explain
[06:43] <vf1j> Scunizi: So it says alternately provide a ppd file
[06:43] <extreme_> errr freaking
[06:43] <extreme_> sorry
[06:43] <tritium> !language | extreme_
[06:43] <FloodBot2> extreme_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:43] <pHreaksYcle> @extreme_ are you using 64 bit? if not, that's why
[06:43] <savvas> bnagy: ok, reboot back in recovery mode and install sudo: dpkg -i /path/to/sudo_1.6.9p17-1ubuntu2.1_i386.deb
[06:43] <bnagy> savvas: yeah that was what I was about to say :P
[06:43] <sastha> i installed 'irssi' IRC chat client.Using 'sudo aptitude install irssi'.Where the installed application will reside?
[06:43] <bnagy> ok l8s
[06:43] <vf1j> Scunizi: HP Provides drivers, but not for the 1020, which is odd as it is a common printer
[06:44] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: RADEON(0): is on all the logs, so I think the driver is the open source RADEON driver...
[06:44] <extreme_> oops lol, but no pHreaksYcle as it says i'm using 64bit
[06:44] <vf1j> Anyone know how to configure a 1020 on CUPS?
[06:44] <Scunizi> vf1j: try HP1000 or HP1010.. something that is close to 1020.
[06:44] <letalis> sastha: irssi is a cli program
[06:44] <vf1j> Scunizi: Believe me, there is nothing close
[06:44] <pHreaksYcle> @extreme_ okay, so you are using 64 bit? because there's really no confusion about it haha. you KNOW if you're using 64
[06:45] <letalis> just type irssi at any terminal prompt
[06:45] <vf1j> Scunizi: It is bizarre
[06:45] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: is there a way to list all packages that are installed ?
[06:45] <quentusrex> and grep for any with fglx in the title?
[06:45] <extreme_> yes i'm running 64bit
[06:45] <vf1j> Maybe I need a linux tutor
[06:45] <tritium> quentusrex: dpkg -l
[06:45] <savvas> vf1j: execute in terminal: sudo apt-get install python-qt3; sudo hplip-setup
[06:45] <world_citizen> pHreaksYcle: I'm stuck at this?? http://xs136.xs.to/xs136/09083/screenshot713.png - I can only scroll, can't click Ok or enter, space, anything
[06:45] <n2diy> ok, I've setup a test box, virgin Hardy install, it is sterile. How do I install chrootkit, and rootkit hunter, without exposing the box to the internet?
[06:46] <sastha> letalis: YEs.i can understand.But i cant see all the messages.but in windows it will run as a separate application.Isnt it
[06:46] <vf1j> So you are saying don't go through cups?
[06:46] <extreme_> and umm
[06:46] <pHreaksYcle> @world_citizen you need to hit left arrow or down arrow until you highlight the OK with red
[06:46] <extreme_> vf1j, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-125545.html
[06:46] <rogermudd> world_citizen: Can you tab to "<OK>" and hit enter?
[06:46] <pHreaksYcle> @world_citizen confused the hell out of me the first time too
[06:46] <world_citizen> ah yes, works! thanks
[06:46] <world_citizen> just had to tab lol
[06:47] <pHreaksYcle> @world_citizen glad to hear this.
[06:47] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: yes... dpkg-query -l | grep '^i'
[06:47] <pHreaksYcle> @world_citizen as a reward for my pretty site, tell me what you're using with java
[06:47] <extreme_> ok now, why dont my system see all 4 gigs, and why is xvid play back blue?
[06:47] <savvas> vf1j: I'm saying to set up your printer driver properly first :)
[06:48] <world_citizen> firefox, it's a pill to install java
[06:48] <pHreaksYcle> @extreme_ 64 if for extreme people, you should know this. perhaps the 64 bit subchannel would be more appropriate?
[06:48] <pHreaksYcle> im sure this exists
[06:48] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: I had the ati driver installed, but not using it. I've removed the driver....
[06:49] <vf1j> Savvas: Okay, thanks you and Extreme--thanks for the link
[06:49] <Milkeh> pHreaksYcle, what version of MusicTracker are you using?
[06:49] <L3Tum> I think maybe my ethernet card and mouse are conflicting, since neither of them are working. I have tried everything else I can possibly find on google about getting the mouse to work, and since the ethernet car doesn't seem to work either, it must be this. Now if someone could just tell me how to find out if they are trying to use the same i/o address or however it is I see if they are conflicting
[06:49] <vf1j> My goals is to get the printer working end-of-week
[06:49] <extreme_> pHreaksYcle, this was a question asked, no reason to become super dickhead
[06:49] <vf1j> Aim high
[06:49] <tritium> extreme_: I've already warned you about foul language
[06:49] <extreme_> if the question was placed in the wrong channel my fault
[06:50] <pHreaksYcle> @extreme_ all in good humor my man. super dickhead i am not, and i commend you for using 64 its hard
[06:50] <U-b-u-n-t-u> any idea on how to get Pidgin to fix on one screen without overlap
[06:50] <bullgard4> Why does Gajim produce no sounds any longer? Does '~$ lsof | grep snd' show that sound output is blocked by gconf-help or mixer_app ?: http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/394173
[06:50] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: no change.....
[06:50] <vf1j> If I get the printer working I will then try to learn MUTT
[06:50] <pHreaksYcle> @Milkeh 0.4.8
[06:50] <IntuitiveNipple> extreme_: The memory address space from 3GB to 4GB is reserved for PCI I/O Memory mapping, so unless the chipset can remap the RAM that would usually appear there, it is effectively out of bounds.
[06:50] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: don't repeat it!
[06:50] <n2diy> ok, I've setup a test box, virgin Hardy install, it is sterile. How do I install chrootkit, and rootkit hunter, without exposing the box to the internet?
[06:50] <mrkissinger> m,b,mnb
[06:50] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium d h i am not :P
[06:50] <mrkissinger> ,mn,mn
[06:50] <mrkissinger> mn,m.n
[06:50] <Milkeh> pHreaksYcle, where did you get 0.4.8 from
[06:51] <vf1j> Thanks again Extreme and good night!
[06:51] <pHreaksYcle> @Milkeh only the best. GetDeb.net
[06:51] <vf1j> I love you all!
[06:51] <pHreaksYcle> cute
[06:51] <Milkeh> pHreaksYcle, alright thank you
[06:51] <tritium> n2diy: if they're not on the install CD, you either have to connect to the internet to install from the repos, or grab the .deb packages from another machine, and transfer them via USB stick, or the like
[06:51] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: The log-files should be giving you some strong clues as to what is happening. I addition to the log-files I mentioned earlier, you should look at ~/.xsession-errors
[06:52] <pHreaksYcle> @Milkeh http://www.getdeb.net/download/3187/0
[06:52] <savvas> n2diy: 1) a local apt mirror cache? 2) look for the package and its dependencies from http://packages.ubuntu.com - save them somewhere and transfer the files to the machine without internet?
[06:52] <L3Tum> How can I find out if a network card and and mouse are conflicting?
[06:52] <world_citizen> pHreaksYcle: it all works! thanks so much phreaksycle I've been having troubles with java on firefox for ages on ubuntu
[06:52] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: please be cautious recommending non-ubuntu packages
[06:52] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: ** (Do:7241): CRITICAL **: gnome_desktop_item_get_localestring: assertion `item != NULL' failed
[06:52] <n2diy> tritium: ok, the debs. are known to be sterile?
[06:53] <pHreaksYcle> @world_citizen no problem man, just remember the site, has all sorts of cool stuff haha
[06:53] <tritium> n2diy: if you grab them from the repositories, yes
[06:53] <lstarnes> n2diy: they are in the official repos and are practically guaranteed to be clean
[06:53] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium I am, getdeb is pretty trusted
[06:53] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: That looks to be worth researching
[06:53] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: we don't recommend them here
[06:54] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: what can you find about it?
[06:54] <SasL> Did anybody resolved "Protocol error" in Virtual Box?
[06:54] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: You have Gnome-do installed?
[06:54] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium does this mean i'm not allowed to?
[06:54] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: yes I do
[06:54] <pHreaksYcle> @tritium or you wouldn't recommend that i recommend them
[06:54] <n2diy> tritium: lstarnes, ok, thanks.
[06:54] <tritium> pHreaksYcle: you can, but be prepared to help if they have trouble ;)

[06:54] <bnagy> arggghhhh
[06:54] <SasL> pHreaksYcle: excuse.My Samba intallation is under progress.
[06:55] <pHreaksYcle> @SasL sure.
[06:55] <bnagy> savvas: OK, sudo online, now working on apt-get -f install
[06:55] <extreme_> brb smoke
[06:55] <GOD2> here
[06:55] <pHreaksYcle> @extreme_ tobacco?
[06:55] <savvas> bnagy: great :)
[06:55] <bnagy> libxul-common failing to install
[06:55] <extreme_> maybe
[06:55] <EMPulse> hey guys
[06:55] <pHreaksYcle> @extreme_ sinner.
[06:55] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: I've uninstalled gnome-do, that wasn't it...
[06:55] <pHreaksYcle> @extreme_ :P
[06:55] <MartianW> My keyboard has a second \ key. I want to use it as a third level chooser. After poking around in the xkb folder I managed to work out it is 94 and <LSGT>. But how do I set it to be a third level chooser?
[06:55] <bnagy> /var/lib/dpkg/info/xulrunner-1.9.postinst: 5: /usr/bin/xulrunner-1.9: not found
[06:55] <EMPulse> Can anyone recommend a video converter that can convert videos for my Palm Centro
[06:56] <pHreaksYcle> @EMPulse Windows haha
[06:56] <GOD2> i need an aircard to work on linux
[06:56] <bnagy> can I DL just that binary from somewhere?
[06:56]  * extreme_ hands the peace pipe to pHreaksYcle 
[06:56] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: No, I didn't think it could be that simple. That error you reported is to do with bad plugins though, so you may want to deal with that later
[06:56] <n2diy> tritium: lstarnes, apt-get filename is the same as getting it's .deb right?
[06:56] <EMPulse> pHreaksYcle, Lol, I mean a program on Ubuntu
[06:56] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: :(
[06:56] <L3Tum> can somebody tell me how I can find out if both my mouse and my network card are trying to use the same i/o address, and if so, how to fix it?
[06:56] <pHreaksYcle> @extreme thank you
[06:56] <savvas> bnagy: you have a lot of problems, the netbook remix release of ubuntu is for advanced users, not stable and not recommended - why not use intrepid 8.10 directly?
[06:56] <tritium> n2diy: sudo apt-get install <packagename>
[06:56] <quentusrex> tritium: had mentioned that it sounded like others are having a similiar problem...
[06:56] <Milkeh> pHreaksYcle, thank you it's working now, I'll be sure to keep this site bookmarked
[06:57] <pHreaksYcle> @Extreme I have asthma though, so ill just have one of those brownies
[06:57] <pHreaksYcle> @Milkeh thanks man, that means a lot
[06:57] <bnagy> savvas: tried that, and the system died horribly somehow
[06:57] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: Do you have an account on the Ubuntu bug-tracker at https://bugs.launchpad.net ?
[06:57] <desilou_fernande> my word! where am i?
[06:57] <tritium> quentusrex: yes, but I don't have much to report as of yet
[06:57] <pHreaksYcle> @forgeign name lol
[06:57] <bnagy> plus wifi camera etc hard to get working
[06:57] <n2diy> tritium: no install, I'm going to put the package on a tthumb drive, and install from there, I hope.
[06:57] <quentusrex> tritium: neither do I .... :(
[06:57] <Myrtti> pHreaksYcle, extreme_: lets keep the offtopic somewhere else and keep this channel for support questions :-)
[06:57] <atom^x> bnagy, xubuntu wiith kernel from array.org
[06:58] <pHreaksYcle> @Myrtti I was waiting for that
[06:58] <Myrtti> pHreaksYcle: then you should know better ;-)
[06:58] <Sergeant_Pony> is it possible to installl compiz fusion from a console?
[06:58] <savvas> bnagy: try this: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -f install and post the output at www.pastebin.com
[06:58] <tritium> n2diy: from a thumb drive, you'll have to use either "sudo dpkg -i <file.deb>", or you can double-click it, and it should open gdebi, which will install it
[06:58] <SasL> pHreaksYcle: i dont find any 'shared folders' in System->Administration.I repeat i m using Virtual Box.Windows XP is my Host and Ubuntu is my Guest.Plz help me
[06:58] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: yes, i have an account...
[06:58] <EMPulse> Can anyone recommend a video converter that can convert videos for my Palm Centro?
[06:58] <bnagy> savvas: OK, but the first error is the one I pasted above
[06:58] <bnagy> but gimme a sec
[06:58] <quentusrex> EMPulse: VLC player...
[06:58] <GOD2> no help?
[06:58] <n2diy> tritium: 10-4
[06:58] <desilou_fernande> wow what a busy chat ... i should leave
[06:58] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: Can you create a bug-report on Launchpad and attach to it a tar-gzip archive containing some log-files?
[06:59] <extreme_> Myrtti, my fault, i do that some times
[06:59] <savvas> bnagy: I'd like the full output if it's not a problem :)
[06:59] <Myrtti> hello desilou_fernande
[06:59] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: if you give me the command that will tar-gzip all the required files, I'll upload it...
[06:59] <bnagy> savvas: ugh, actually...lemme check if I have lynx
[06:59] <pHreaksYcle> @quentusrex i see people recommend VLC for converting ETC but i never learned how to do anything like that. VLC just seems like a simple player to me
[06:59] <Myrtti> desilou_fernande: do you need help with Ubuntu?
[06:59] <bnagy> firefox currently borked
[06:59] <quentusrex> pHreaksYcle: dig deeper
[06:59] <desilou_fernande> no its working fine
[06:59] <n2diy> desilou_fernande: busy, a couple of hours ago there were over 1500 users here!

[07:00] <EMPulse> quentusrex, Can VLC shrink the screen? i.e. change the resolution to make it smaller?
[07:00] <savvas> bnagy: ok ignore that, give me a second to think then :)
[07:00] <bnagy> savvas: mind if I just /msg you?
[07:00] <quentusrex> EMPulse: yes, ask on the vlc channel...
[07:00] <EMPulse> quentusrex, thanks
[07:00] <quentusrex> EMPulse:  #videolan I think
[07:00] <savvas> bnagy: no, send it!
[07:00] <spree> I have an issue. I have an OOOOOLD Automatix installation. I installed Swiftweasel with it. I want to remove swiftweasel and install the new version properly. I am running Intrepid. I also need to uninstall Automatix and have no clue how to go about doing it
[07:00] <savvas> bnagy: i mean privately :)
[07:01] <Myrtti> desilou_fernande: excellent then :-)
[07:01] <bullgard4> Why does Gajim produce no sounds any longer? Does '~$ lsof | grep snd' show that sound output is blocked by gconf-help or mixer_app ?: http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/394173
[07:01] <spree> remember Automatix? from 7.10? I still have it and i want rid of it
[07:01] <Tom47> is vbox running xp vm a cpu hog known to anyone else?
[07:01] <Milkeh> why does my java and banshee music player not want to play sounds at the same time?
[07:01] <Sergeant_Pony> anyone know if there is a way to activate restricted drivers thru a console?
[07:01] <Luvis> crakerjacks yo
[07:01] <pHreaksYcle> @Milkeh uh oh. sounds like one of those ubuntu sound issues
[07:01] <spree> Tom47, all the windows above 2000 will do that
[07:01] <crackerjackz> Milkeh: because one of them is locking your soundcard for some reason
[07:02] <tritium> spree: yes, we *never* supported automatix
[07:02] <spree> Tom47, XP is better than Vista
[07:02] <spree> Tom47, resource wise anyway
[07:02] <Milkeh> crackerjackz, they lock each other out, any idea how to fix?
[07:02] <Tom47> spree oh .... did not notice it until todays 2.1.4 update
[07:02] <spree> tripps, well what do you want me to do
[07:02] <SunnyDP> @extreme-sudoer :D
[07:02] <spree> tritium, what do you want me to do
[07:02] <Flannel> spree: There's no way to remove Automatix, you have to reinstall.
[07:02] <tritium> spree: anything you like
[07:02] <spree> well that's just super
[07:03] <tritium> spree: we've always strongly advised against it
[07:03] <tritium> !automatix | spree
[07:03] <Flannel> spree: that's just one of the many reasons we recommend against it.
[07:03] <spree> Tristam, yeah it would have been nice to know that before i did it, i'd never been here before
[07:03] <quentusrex> IntuitiveNipple: what should it be filed under?
[07:03] <Luvis> i'm using automatix... can't get aircard to work
[07:03] <Sergeant_Pony> anyone know if there is a way to activate restricted drivers thru a console?
[07:03] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: Hmmm... gdm ?
[07:03] <crackerjackz> Milkeh: i'm not familuar with banshee music player, is it java that is locking your soundcard or is it banshee locking your sound card, are you sure its not firefox locking your sound card?
[07:04] <spree> Tristam, you doing the !automatix was completely pointless, i already know, okay?
[07:04] <Flannel> spree: The Ubuntu community has been crusading against Automatix for a long time now (well, while it was still active).  But, we can't raise awareness everywhere, obviously.
[07:04] <pHreaksYcle> @spree what kind of spree?
[07:04] <pHreaksYcle> @spree candy or killing?
[07:04] <Flannel> pHreaksYcle: Please stay on topic
[07:04] <spree> Flannel, show me where I am advocating the use of automatix
[07:04] <Luvis> so why the ubuntu team so against it?
[07:05] <spree> pHreaksYcle, why not both?
[07:05] <Flannel> spree: I never said you were.  I just said we've tried to raise awareness as much as we could.
[07:05] <pHreaksYcle> @spree because that's too funny for me to handle.
[07:05] <joey_> any idea why i would get horizontal refresh lines when watching movies?
[07:05] <joey_> but i get nothing when playing games or anything else
[07:06] <Flannel> Luvis: Because it's a bad piece of software.  The actual issues are outlined in that blog article (well, some of them).  If you'd like to discuss it further, we can take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:06] <crackerjackz> Luvis: why is the ubuntu team so against what?
[07:06] <tritium> Luvis: read above
[07:06] <Milkeh> crackerjackz, I'm sure, it's just that banshee (and every other music player) is kind of.. clashing with java. If I run a java game.. the song sits at 0:00 and java sounds play fine
[07:06] <Milkeh> crackerjackz, and if I play a song and open a java game.. no sounds come out of the java game
[07:06] <spree> Flannel, you're like the guy who tells a guy who just got hit by a truck that he should avoid being hit by trucks
[07:06] <crackerjackz> Milkeh: you are using firefox right?
[07:06] <pHreaksYcle> @spree LMAO
[07:06] <Luvis> Crackerjackz ,automatix
[07:06] <tritium> spree: the point was to provide you the background on the reasons why
[07:07] <Milkeh> crackerjackz, yes
[07:07] <SasL> pHreaksYcle: i dont find any 'shared folders' in System->Administration.I repeat i m using Virtual Box.Windows XP is my Host and Ubuntu is my Guest.Plz help me
[07:07] <crackerjackz> Milkeh: go to youtube.com and see if flash does the same thing to you
[07:07] <spree> tritium, i was looking forward to finding out something i don't already know. So far, i'm disappointed.
[07:07] <crackerjackz> Milkeh: i think its firefox locking your soundcard not java
[07:08] <spree> tritium, i do know this whole "impossible to remove it" thing has got to be bunk and a cop-out
[07:08] <crackerjackz> Milkeh: you only have onboard sound right?
[07:08] <Milkeh> crackerjackz, Nope I'm positive, it's java. Just double checked, doesn't do it with firefox. and youtube videos are working fine
[07:08] <Luvis> i see no blog article
[07:08] <tritium> spree: if it were official ubuntu software in the repositories, you might have reason to complain to us
[07:08] <Milkeh> crackerjackz, Not quite sure, I know I have a realtek HD soundcard
[07:09] <Flannel> spree: If you want to manually delete lots of files, go right ahead.  There's no easy way for us to explain to you how to restore your system to a state before it was installed.
[07:09] <spree> tritium, Show me where I complained
[07:09] <crackerjackz> Milkeh: you only have one soundcard right? and the one you do have is intergrated with the motherboard right/
[07:09] <tritium> spree: it's unfortunate you chose to install unofficial software, and now want to blame us, as if it was in some way something we did
[07:10] <tritium> Luvis: /msg ubottu automatix, and you'll see the blog post
[07:10] <tritium> spree: your previous two comments
[07:11] <spree> tritium, so far you've had the supposition that I am both some kind of Automatix adovcate that needs talking out of using it after the damage is done, and that I am here to whine about it. I came here for some sort of recommendation beyond what somebody at Dell tech support in India would say with Windows "Okay, we'll just reinstall your entire operating system that will fix it"
[07:11] <n2diy> what is the apt-get syntax to DL filename to my USB drive, with is listed as /dev/sdb1?
[07:11] <L3Tum> how can I find out which i/o address my mouse and network card are using?
[07:11] <n2diy> with/ which
[07:11] <tritium> spree: I've had no such supposition, there's just nothing we can recommend for you
[07:11] <Luvis> thanks tritium
[07:11] <spree> That is a sufficient and respectable response.
[07:12] <Milkeh> crackerjackz, I would say it, I used to run both java and windows media player on windows
[07:12] <Luvis> i might have to transfer to opensuse
[07:12] <Flannel> spree: Ok, fine:  Get a vanilla install of Ubuntu, get a list of files on it (ls -lR /) install Automatix (the same version), install all of the software you installed with automatix.  Get another file listing.  Delete the differences.
[07:12] <spree> Flannel thank you, that's a good idea
[07:13] <Flannel> spree: Other than that, we have no idea, since we don't deal with it.  You wouldn't call up Dell and ask them how to remove some random third party program.
[07:13] <crackerjackz> Milkeh: you only have one soundcard right?
[07:13] <bullgard4> Why does Gajim produce no sounds any longer? Does '~$ lsof | grep snd' show that sound output is blocked by gconf-help or mixer_app ?: http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/394173
[07:13] <spree> Flannel, actually yeah i would because if i were into the whole Dell thing i would pimp that warranty support out as much as possible and they would do it. :)
[07:14] <tritium> spree: nonsense
[07:14] <n2diy> what is the apt-get syntax to DL filename to my USB drive, which is listed as /dev/sdb1?
[07:14] <pHreaksYcle> @bullgard4 do you mean Gaim?
[07:14] <quentusrex23> IntuitiveNipple: tritium Alright. I installed kubuntu-desktop... and now I'm in the desktop...
[07:14] <Milkeh> crackerjackz, I would say so, I haven't added any extra hardware.
[07:14] <bullgard4> pHreaksYcle: No.
[07:14] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: Does gdm still fail?
[07:14] <spree> tritium, actually you'd be amazed at what you can accomplish over the phone
[07:15] <Flannel> spree: It's extremely likely that it won't actually work.  Because the automatix repositories and such have been taken offline, and I'm sure URLs of other things have changed as well.  But sure, if you're willing to actually do that, byall means, knock yourself out.  It'll be faster, and cleaner (and you'll have fewer problems) to just reinstall (since automatix not only added files, but *modified* files)
[07:15] <quentusrex23> IntuitiveNipple: yes, it still fails...
[07:15] <Luvis> brb
[07:15] <Flannel> !away > Luvis
[07:15] <tritium> spree: it's not reasonable to demand support for random, third-party, unofficial software
[07:15] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: narrowing things down then
[07:15] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: Have you posted those logs?
[07:15] <spree> tritium, show me where i said i'm responsible.
[07:15] <spree> or reasonable
[07:16] <n2diy> Flannel: is Automatix supported now?
[07:16] <Flannel> n2diy: Never.
[07:16] <quentusrex23> IntuitiveNipple: yup. they're posted...
[07:16] <tritium> spree: drop it.
[07:16] <Luvis> does anyone know of anyway to get a novatel ovation broadband airmodem working on linux?
[07:16] <fool_> how should i reopen a bug ?
[07:16] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: Have you tried doing a reinstall of gdm? (sudo apt-get --reinstall gdm)
[07:16] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: Give me the bug URL
[07:17] <crackerjackz> i tried helping Luvis earlier but google only yielded two search results
[07:17] <spree> i'm irritated at the lack of enthusiasm
[07:17] <n2diy> Flannel: ok, I was off line for four monthes, so I have been suprized to see it discussed here, recently.
[07:17] <fool_> bug ?
[07:17] <L3Tum> spree,  You can't demand support for a free product anyway...if you don't like it you don't have to use it
[07:17] <Flannel> n2diy: Its been dead for a while.  I have no idea what spurred this horrible ressurection.
[07:17] <spree> i bet i can fix it i fixed everything else that wasn't working with the past 4 upgrades
[07:17] <tritium> spree: spare us, and stay on topic, please
[07:17] <fool_> !bug
[07:17] <n2diy> Flannel: :)
[07:17] <spree> tritium, show me where i'm not on topic
[07:18] <elpargo> hi, how can I turn off X and make it not reload gdm?
[07:18] <elpargo> ^^^ temporally
[07:18] <lvty> elpargo: /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[07:18] <fool_> if a bug is mark "fixed released" how can i reopen ?
[07:18] <tritium> elpargo: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop
[07:18] <crackerjackz> tritium: do you know how to get a novatel ovation mc727 usb air modem working with ubuntu?
[07:18] <L3Tum> Is there any way to find out if my mouse and network card are conflicting? And how can I fix this if they are?
[07:18] <tritium> crackerjackz: no, sorry
[07:19] <crackerjackz> tritium: have you ever played around with cellular modems before?
[07:19] <tritium> crackerjackz: nope
[07:19] <elpargo> right thanks lvty, totally forgot about it :)
[07:19] <Luvis> damn box says it supports linux..
[07:19] <crackerjackz> tritium: you know any one that might know?
[07:19] <n2diy> what is the apt-get syntax to DL filename to my USB drive, which is listed as /dev/sdb1?
[07:19] <elpargo> tritium: intersting I didn't knew about that one.
[07:19] <Daft_Punk> I recently upgraded my system from hardy to intrepid, now my wireless cuts out frequently and reconnects, I am using WPA/WPA2 Personal encryption, but if I change it to WEP 128 bit encryption, it seems to be working more stable, is there a workaround or known issue with WPA/WPA2 and intrepid?
[07:19] <Flannel> spree: Again, please stay on topic.  That topic is: Ubuntu support, not badgering people doing the support.
[07:20] <crackerjackz> its actually for my friend luvis i tried helping him earlier but google only yielded two search results so i suggested that we come in here
[07:21] <Daft_Punk> is it quiet or did i get disconnected
[07:21] <Daft_Punk> lol

[07:25] <Daft_Punk> bullgard4, what do you mean, any longer? since when?

[07:25] <Flannel> Luvis: Please stay on topic.
[07:26] <Luvis> sorry. i get distracted
[07:26] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: What's this command report: ls -l /dev/random && ls -l /dev/urandom
[07:26] <Daft_Punk> !offtopic | Luvis
[07:28] <Daft_Punk> it seems fairly dead in here right now, ill come back later to ask my support question, if someone reads it and can help please PM me :)
[07:28] <vigo> Actually, what Luvis stated, was sorta on my topic. PyTube or what to download and save for replay YouTube stuff?
[07:30] <tritium> vigo: "apt-cache search youtube" should give you a few ideas
[07:30] <vigo> Thank you
[07:30] <delly> how to install lamp-server
[07:31] <savvas> !lamp | delly
[07:31] <vigo> tritium: in Terminal?
[07:31] <lvty> Daft_Punk: I'd downgrade
[07:31] <Luvis> brb guz
[07:31] <Flannel> delly: The easiest way is to use tasksel (which is explained from that wiki page)
[07:31] <delly> ok dear i ;ll try
[07:31] <Daft_Punk> lvty, I do not know if that is your attempt at humor, or just plain bad advice, but I do not appreciate it. Thanks.
[07:32] <spree> Daft_Punk, you'll get a lot of that around here, caveat emptor
[07:33] <lvty> Well, I had issues with audio and wireless cards in Intrepid, it's not user error when the previous version worked (i.e. a regression)
[07:34] <tritium> vigo: yes
[07:34] <Daft_Punk> lvty, yeah but this is support for intrepid not hardy, also, i had issues with audio too but it turns out its just a package that needed to be upgraded that wasn't...
[07:34] <tritium> spree: drop the attitude
[07:34] <spree> tritium, I don't know what you mean. Please stay on topic.
[07:34] <Flannel> spree: Actually, being unhelpful is against the channel rules, so no, you won't.
[07:35] <vigo> tritium: Sweet! Thank you
[07:35] <tritium> vigo: no problem :)
[07:35] <Daft_Punk> :) justice
[07:35] <nanotube> any webcam gurus on here?
[07:35] <SasL> what is a .wine?
[07:35] <IntuitiveNipple> quentusrex: I've posted a response to your bug report
[07:36] <Daft_Punk> tritium, i just noticed a PM spree had sent me just now, should I share it with you in private or just ignore it?
[07:36] <lvty> nanotube: usb?
[07:36] <tritium> Daft_Punk: you may PM me
[07:36] <nanotube> lvty: yes
[07:36] <IntuitiveNipple> Daft_Punk: This is support for Hardy and Intrepid. Hardy is a Long Term Support release.
[07:37] <Daft_Punk> IntuitiveNipple, i was under the impression that since it was released that this was only intrepid support and hardy would have it's own channel, sorry.
[07:37] <lvty> ubuntu+1 is jaunty
[07:37] <IntuitiveNipple> Daft_Punk: It gets confusing :)
[07:38] <tritium> Daft_Punk: thanks, buddy
[07:38] <IntuitiveNipple> Maybe we need an #ubuntu-1 :p
[07:38] <Flannel> Daft_Punk: #ubuntu supports all supported (and sometimes EOL stuff, particularly upgrading to non-EOL) Ubuntu versions.
[07:38] <lvty> nanotube: it's probably not in the kernel, someone else correct me if I'm wrong: http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/
[07:39] <Daft_Punk> Flannel, ok i understand now thanks
[07:41] <nanotube> lvty: well, the problem is more complex (hence request for gurus) :) webcam works just fine in cheese, but ekiga fails to see it.
[07:42] <SasL> what are the fundamental topics to be learnt by a beginner to Ubuntu?
[07:42] <n2diy> I need to apt-get a package, and send it to /dev/sdb1, what is the syntax to do that?
[07:42] <lvty> nanotube: do you have libpt*plugins-v4l ?
[07:42] <Daft_Punk> SasL, probably basic terminal commands as you might need to know them sometimes, as well as how to use ROOT and why you shouldnt always be root
[07:42] <nanotube> lvty: yes
[07:43] <Flannel> SasL: Depends on where they're coming from.  The biggest is probably package management (which usually means add/remove or synaptic package manager).  And then the permissions (sudo stuff, etc)
[07:43] <lvty> nanotube: might want to run it in higher debugging level and paste that
[07:43] <nanotube> lvty: done that... here let me post my ubuntuforums thread (no replies ... :( )

[07:44] <Brack101> Hi
[07:44]  * Daft_Punk waves excitedly at Brack101 
[07:45] <Brack101> I'm trying to create a cron job that runs mplayer for an alarm clock.  When it triggers the mplayer process, I only get .5 seconds of sound.  anyone know what's up?
[07:45] <Brack101> 44 23 * * * mplayer /home/travis/Music/alarm.mp3
[07:45] <Brack101> after crontab -e
[07:45] <lvty> nanotube: can you paste the entire thing in pastie or somewhere?
[07:46] <toshi> use alarm clock why make a cron...
[07:46] <nanotube> lvty: by entire thing you mean the whole ekiga -d 6 debug output?
[07:47] <sastha> Daft_Punk: Thank.Any reference links available?
[07:47] <Brack101> toshi: so I can practice my linux, and be all nerdy and have to use pskill to kill my alarm clock in the morning
[07:47] <marathon> hello i have 2 pc with UBUNTU how to connect a pc to the other
[07:47] <Brack101> toshi: besides, there's no good built in alarm clock as far as I can tell
[07:47] <sastha> Flannel: Thanks.Is package management that important?
[07:47] <boshhead> Random tip: sudo !!   <-- This will run the last command you wrote with 'sudo' in front of it.
[07:47] <Daft_Punk> sastha, sorry, references for?
[07:47] <toshi> apt-get install alarm-clock
[07:48] <Flannel> boshhead: A better method is to hit up, then hit home, then type sudo.  Otherwise you can get confused, and do the wrong command with sudo
[07:48] <marathon> i want to see the folders of the other pc but samba ask for password and when i set the right password it tells that the password is wrong
[07:48] <toshi> lol
[07:48] <lvty> nanotube: yes
[07:48] <boshhead> Flannel: No, that's much less effecient :P
[07:48] <sastha> Daft_Punk: Terminal commands? and its interesting,the sentence u said.'Y u shouldn't be ROOT all the time'. :)
[07:48] <Flannel> sastha: Package management (you don't need to know all about it, just how to use the package managers to find stuff) is how you install new software (and find new software to install)
[07:49] <Flannel> sastha: https://help.ubuntu.com/ actually covers all of the basics
[07:49] <sastha> Flannel: Thanks
[07:49] <Flannel> boshhead: No, its not actually.  And its much safer.
[07:49] <nanotube> lvty: ok, let me generate it...
[07:50] <boshhead> Flannel: I bet you wear a helmet when going outside :)
[07:51] <blinko> I wear a helmet when i go outside.  It's DANGEROUS out there.  On account of the plate in my head.
[07:51] <Viking667> hey. What package provides gtk-config ?
[07:51] <nanotube> lvty: here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/119555/
[07:52] <nanotube> lvty: thanks for taking a look at this btw :)
[07:53] <lvty> nanotube: yw, I wish I was actually skilled at this (only had something similar with a builtin usb cam)
[07:53] <empiric> hi i want ha document/content managment system on debain machine
[07:53] <empiric> any good one any one knows?
[07:54] <luminerd> A friend has a issue with Pidgin not launching on a default install of Ubuntu. He clicks it, but it does not launch, and the icon does not appear on the bar. What should I tell him?
[07:54] <n2diy> empiric: Openoffice?
[07:55] <empiric> no no
[07:55] <empiric> Enterprise
[07:55] <empiric> contetct managemnt
[07:55] <rww> luminerd: open a terminal, type pidgin in it, and see what error he gets
[07:56] <n2diy> empiric: make up your mind, do you want to manage documents, or contacts, or what???
[07:56] <luminerd> I got rid of the shortcut to terminal on these machines :/ is there a key combo that will let you run terminal or something
[07:56] <empiric> contents
[07:56] <lvty> nanotube: the only thing I can think of is that it's not finding the plugins. that would probably take a debugger or at least strace
[07:56] <empiric> well primarily documents
[07:56] <rww> luminerd: alt-f2 and type gnome-terminal
[07:56] <luminerd> thanks
[07:57] <n2diy> empiric: nobody can answer you question, until you know what you want to do.
[07:57] <lvty> nanotube: that video0 symlink isn't pointing at a /dev/ node is it?
[07:58] <wojtek> jest ktos z polski ?
[07:58] <n2diy> ! pl
[07:58] <empiric> n2diy i want document managemnt system any good you know?
[07:58] <luminerd> Ok I'll have him do that thank you :D
[07:58] <n2diy> empiric: what is wrong with Openoffice?
[07:58] <wojtek> jak przejsc na ten serwer ? -pl
[07:59] <nanotube> lvty: you mean the one in /sys/class/video4linux ?
[07:59] <tritium> wojtek: /j #ubuntu-pl
[07:59] <quibbler> wojtek, type  /join #ubuntu-pl
[07:59] <katia> hola
[08:00] <empiric> open office is where i write docs if i want to pcae dosumnets on a web based system where users can have only read access to these files and admin has write access
[08:00] <lvty> nanotube: yeah, and it's not supposed to. looks like it's detecting the audio and assuming that's all there is
[08:00] <empiric> should have version managment of docs as well
[08:01] <rww> empiric: oh, so you mean a web-based CMS? something like drupal maybe?
[08:01] <n2diy> empiric: I "think" OO can do all that, but you would need help specific to OO for that. Try and find an OO channel?
[08:02] <nanotube> lvty: well, it's not pointing to /dev/video0... it's pointing at /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb1/1-1/video4linux/video0
[08:02] <lvty> nanotube: the bug looks like it's in pvl2plugin's handling of that metadata
[08:02] <Daft_Punk> * Cannot join #ubuntu-offtopic (You are banned). Why was I banned?
[08:03] <Flannel> Daft_Punk: #ubuntu-ops is the place to discuss those things
[08:03] <nanotube> lvty: hrm... so what do you suggest? where does that plugin live, that is - if i upgrade to the latest ekiga (it's up to v3.x now), might that help?
[08:03] <Daft_Punk> Flannel, thank you
[08:04] <travis_> ex-chat
[08:04] <Scix> how can i automount a share into a folder inside a users homedir, using autofs-ldap?
[08:05] <lvty> nanotube: it's pretty unlikely, and building ekiga from sources is very painful
[08:05] <nanotube> lvty: hrm... so what can i do? possible to upgrade just the pvl2plugin?
[08:06] <nanotube> lvty: pv4lplugin, that is
[08:06] <lvty> nanotube: may have to use another SIP client
[08:07] <lvty> nanotube: since hardware issues and lack of support in kernel are already ruled out
[08:07] <nanotube> lvty: can you suggest a good one i could use? one that is foss?
[08:08] <nanotube> lvty: and supports videochat
[08:09] <lvty> nanotube: might try sip communicator
[08:09] <lvty> nanotube: of course FOSS... kind of, you need a JRE
[08:11] <lvty> nanotube: the main problem is nothing can drill through firewalls like Ekiga (and skype, which uses dirty tricks supposedly)
[08:12] <nanotube> lvty: hmm... well, maybe out of curiosity i might try the jaunty alpha livecd and see if ekiga3 works on it. :)
[08:12] <lvty> nanotube: there's also wengo, so you have a few applications to fall back on
[08:13] <nanotube> lvty: well, thanks for your help. i'll try these other guys and see if they can do the magic. :)
[08:14] <lvty> nanotube: yw, wish I could've done more
[08:14] <nanotube> lvty: good night :)
[08:15] <IntuitiveNipple> nanotube: Ekiga 3 seems to handle USB V4L2 video okay on Jaunty
[08:15] <lvty> night, or morning :)
[08:16] <nanotube> IntuitiveNipple: cool... thanks for the info.
[08:16] <nanotube> lvty: yea... more like morning indeed. :)
[08:18] <lvty> the problem I have with ekiga is there only seems to be an alsa audio plugin
[08:19] <mtretin> Emacs Question: I can't tell emacs to use ttf-inconsolata with my .Xresources file but I can tell it to you Monospace? Any ideas why?
[08:20] <Scix> could anyone help me with a channel where someone know autofs? I realy need help
[08:21] <n2diy> How do I DL a .deb, and put it on sdb1?
[08:21] <world_citizen> hi, how can I access SSH from terminal? I need to enter the password for my login, but I think it's asking for the server password or something? xxxxx@xxxxx:~$ ssh -l -D www.host.com 8080 usernamehere

[08:22] <n2diy> tritium: chrootkit isn't in the repos.
[08:22] <tritium> n2diy: yes, I saw it earlier
[08:22] <Flannel> n2diy: I believe synaptic can generate a download script too, if you need to do more than a few.
[08:22] <tritium> n2diy: package name is chkrootkit
[08:23] <n2diy> tritium: chkrooket, ok, let me try that, thanks.
[08:24] <xnevermore> Hey. I've installed a new kernel version. Running update-grub detects the new kernel ("Found kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27-12-generic"), but doesn't update menu.1st to include it. Whats going on here?

[08:33] <sebsebseb> Guest33167: most of them very beautiful
[08:33] <Guest33167> what screen savers??

[08:35] <Kohvihoor> is it possible to direct one sound card to one user and other soundcard for other user?
[08:35] <klikklak> my mouse stops working after sdlmame or (probably) other opengl apps.  I can still move around the cursor, but it doesn't move focus and clicks don't register, what's causing this?
[08:39] <poke006> hello
[08:39] <klikklak> ah, BTS <3 I found the bug
[08:40] <poke006> oo
[08:40] <bnagy> savvas: you still up?
[08:41] <bnagy> hm. I'm trying to apt-get -f install and xulrunner1.9 is not installing
[08:41] <Shay26> Hello , can anyone recommend me on tool to convert video files (wmv format) to other formats such avi etc.. ?
[08:41] <bnagy> /var/lib/dpkg/info/xulrunner-1.9.postinst: 5: /usr/bin/xulrunner-1.9: not found
[08:41] <bnagy> dpkg: error processing xulrunner-1.9 (--configure):
[08:42] <Rainium_Isotope_> go to cnet.com and search for converters
[08:42] <Rainium_Isotope_> youll find more than enough
[08:42] <Rainium_Isotope_> and theyre all free
[08:42] <petski> Shay26: ffmpeg
[08:42] <Rainium_Isotope_> o wait im thinking windows.. heh
[08:42] <Rainium_Isotope_> sry
[08:42] <nikolaz> anyone using thunar?
[08:43] <zubeen> bnagy: try updating the repositories..  you may need to check whether your repositories are compatible at the same time
[08:43] <bnagy> zubeen: yeah just did an update, using the main repo
[08:44] <rww> !anyone | nikolaz
[08:44] <petski> Shay26: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ffmpeg (please also take notice of medibuntu, that you might find interesting)
[08:44] <bnagy> also did dpkg reconfigure all thing
[08:44] <Rainium_Isotope_> hey i have a built-in cam on my laptop and tried to install the driver with easycam2 and everything worked out but when i tried to run it the video was not working properly, is it possible that the cam just isnt compatible?
[08:44] <zubeen> bnagy: you are on which version?
[08:45] <nikolaz> rww: ok
[08:45] <shams> can you introduce me a good tools for backing up of my file system and mysql?
[08:45] <bnagy> 8.1 but it's the easy-peasy netbook ISO
[08:45] <nikolaz> im using thunar fila manager and i cannot copy any document to desktop.. why
[08:45] <bnagy> what I _think_ I want to do is get an x86 binary of that file and just copy it into usr/bin
[08:46] <bnagy> can I extract that from the package file somehow?
[08:46] <zubeen> bnagy: eh.. it aint that simple..
[08:46] <bnagy> might be :)
[08:47] <bnagy> or, alternatively, how do I look at the postinstall script and see what it's trying to do?
[08:47] <IntuitiveNipple> bnagy: Have you tried purging the package and trying again?
[08:47] <bnagy> IntuitiveNipple: yes, and it broke sudo
[08:47] <bnagy> which was an hour gone
[08:47] <Rainium_Isotope_> hey is it possible to copy desktop files into the filesystem using gnome?
[08:48] <Rainium_Isotope_> ..anyone
[08:48] <IntuitiveNipple> bnagy: lol... yes, I recall seeing you mention something about that earlier
[08:48] <bnagy> :)
[08:48] <IntuitiveNipple> Rainium_Isotope_: Yes - start nautilus as root using Alt+F2 then "gksudo nautilus"
[08:49] <bnagy> so savvas had me do a dpkg --configure --all or somesuch, which finally completed
[08:49] <bnagy> and now I am kind of back at the start
[08:49] <IntuitiveNipple> bnagy: Hmmm, it sounds as if there's something gone wrong than just a few isolated package configuration issues.
[08:49] <Rainium_Isotope_> what exactly will that do?
[08:50] <shams> can you introduce me a good tools for backing up of my file system and mysql?
[08:50] <IntuitiveNipple> bnagy: Can you give us a quick outline of what happened leading up to this?
[08:50] <bnagy> nothing, really, tried to run an update, firefox was in the list
[08:50] <Shay26> I need help please , when i playing video files (avi ,wmv) the video flickering (i replaced the player to vlc but still the same problem) i using Ubuntu intrepid 8.10
[08:50] <IntuitiveNipple> Rainium_Isotope_: Run nautilus with root privileges so you have write permissions into the / file-sytem
[08:50] <bnagy> firefix wants xulrunner
[08:50] <quibbler> !backup
[08:50] <Rainium_Isotope_> ahh ok thank you.
[08:51] <bnagy> so I got the error I already pasted, and the first thing I tried was remove and reinstall :P
[08:51] <IntuitiveNipple> bnagy: It sounds as if the original update was upgrading sudo - that would explain the sudo break... I think :)
[08:51] <pvh_sa|wrk> hi, i recently upgraded a machine from 8.04 to 8.10 and now when i do "sudo" it says : "sudo: pam_authenticate: Module is unknown" - any ideas?
[08:51] <shams> quibbler: thank you
[08:52] <bnagy> IntuitiveNipple: hm.. maybe.. when I removed xulrunner it removed a lot of stuff, and xul seems to be a dependency of sudo for some reason
[08:52] <bnagy> so i figured that was what happened
[08:52] <IntuitiveNipple> bnagy: Is it Intrepid?
[08:52] <bnagy> but anyway, sudo is fixed now, so bygones and all
[08:52] <bnagy> yes
[08:52] <rww> bnagy: pretty sure xulrunner isn't a dependency of sudo =/
[08:52] <savvas> bnagy: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -f install
[08:53] <JackWinter__> how do i see what path g++ looks for headers in ?
[08:53] <bnagy> savvas: yep, done that, same error :)
[08:53] <savvas> darn
[08:53] <IntuitiveNipple> bnagy: So the update is 1.9.0.6+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.10.1 ?
[08:53] <n2diy> How do I protect a virgin install of Hardy from internet attacks?
[08:53] <bnagy> but the reconfigure finished :P
[08:53] <bnagy> IntuitiveNipple: yes, that's right
[08:53] <IntuitiveNipple> n2diy: It's protected by default
[08:54] <bn43> does anyone know how to reset the bios password using linux?
[08:54] <savvas> bnagy: there's another way to do this, but it's a bit extreme, that is to "sudo aptitude purge ubuntu-standard ubuntu-desktop" and install it all over again: "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop" but I can't guarantee it won't bork your system even more :\
[08:54] <bnagy> yeek
[08:55] <bnagy> I think I'll try just putting the binary there manually first
[08:55] <IntuitiveNipple> bnagy: My inclination would that the package has somehow been corrupted in apt's archive, but because the previous version's postinst script is still available, it has removed the old version but got stuck installing the new... that would explain the missing /usr/bin/xulrunner but
[08:55] <chu_> is songbird coming to the repositories?
[08:55] <savvas> bnagy: it keeps the ubuntu-minimal, which could be the console (ctrl+alt+f1), but I can't make any promises, sorry - at least we tried :)
[08:55] <IntuitiveNipple> bnagy: The way I'd do it, I'd tell dpkg/apt that xulrunner is no longer installed, then install from the .deb package
[08:55] <rww> bn43: Turn your computer off, unplug it, remove the CMOS battery and leave it for a few minutes.
[08:55] <Flannel> bn43: Use Linux to turn off the computer.  Open the computer case, pull out the BIOS battery.
[08:56] <DavidTangye> Does anyone else think that the single biggest thing outstanding that needs to work better is sound (recording, palyback over USB, speakers,mic port, whatever)?
[08:56] <bn43> its a laptop - can't get to the battery
[08:56] <bn43> rww: thats why I wanted to know if there is a tool in linux to do that
[08:56] <kapipi> Where can I find the version of aptitude that has "Super Cow Powers"?
[08:57] <bnagy> IntuitiveNipple: OK, sounds good - how do I do that?
[08:57] <rww> bn43: BIOS passwords aren't generally resettable from Linux (or Windows or other operating systems).
[08:57] <rww> kapipi: There isn't one. The super cow powers thing is an inside joke.
[08:57] <IntuitiveNipple> bnagy: give me a mo... Jaunty is updating and it's just stopped the bluetooth service so lost the mouse :)
[08:57] <hateball> bn43: of course you can get to the battery in a laptop. usually under they keyboard
[08:57] <kapipi> rww: awwww
[08:58] <n2diy> IntuitiveNipple: yes, and no, take a look at http://www.itsecurity.com/features/ubuntu-secure-install-resource/, I've gotten as far as installing chkrootkit, but can't figure out how to install it without exsposisg the box to the internenet?
[08:58] <kapipi> rww: maybe the debian version has them then
[08:58] <bn43> hateball: thats a good tip - I'll have a look
[08:59] <bnagy> n2diy: if you have your box behind any box that  does NAT (stock adsl router) nobody can attack you directly
[08:59] <n2diy> bnagy: that is what I'm trying to protect myself, and network, from.
[09:00] <bnagy> ?
[09:01] <savvas> n2diy: what's with the super secrecy?
[09:01] <bnagy> n2diy: what I mean is that even an insecure box will be OK if it's behind a NAt router
[09:01] <mudit> i m trying to install ejabberd on my lan
[09:01] <bnagy> OK enough to DL updates anyway, just don't use a browser or any client program until you're updated
[09:02] <n2diy> savvas: security, not secercy.
[09:02] <mudit> the jabber client would connect to the server on the same machine, but not on lan !
[09:02] <daughtree> hi
[09:02] <daughtree> how do i know if this ubuntu im using now is LTS or desktop ubuntu?
[09:03] <daughtree> lsb_release -a wont give me the exact detail
[09:03] <n2diy> bnagy: roger that, how do I determine if I'm behind a NAT?
[09:03] <DJones> daughtree: which version does it say you're using
[09:03] <Uplink> im having issues with my firefox, please help
[09:03] <petski> n2diy, download the .deb for chkrootkit and all of it's dependencies, and copy them on a USB-stick for instance
[09:03] <bnagy> n2diy: uh.. you don't know? I mean, how are you connected to the internet? Do you own the box that does the magic?
[09:04] <mudit> anyone ?
[09:04] <DJones> daughtree: If its version 8.04, thats an LTS version, although if you've installed from the standard desktop cd, you'll have a desktop version
[09:04] <n2diy> bnagy: stupid question on my part. I want to protect the box before it goes live online,  I'm connected via adsl.
[09:04] <petski> bnagy: I don't agree with your "you're safe behind NAT" theory
[09:05] <bnagy> petski: that's your right
[09:05] <savvas> n2diy: as I previously said, http://packages.ubuntu.com and you search for the packages you want. Otherwise, head to http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=155034&package_id=172567&release_id=650418 and compile the source :)
[09:05] <kaka> bababalu
[09:05] <savvas> n2diy: you probably have a cd-rw or a usb flash drive handy
[09:06] <savvas> n2diy: or any means to transfer .deb or .tar.gz files to the machine without internet
[09:06] <kaka> savvas: ubuntu no deb:)
[09:06] <kaka> bababalu
[09:06] <savvas> kaka: english
[09:06] <daughtree> DJones: somebody installed it and i dont know what installer he is using
[09:06] <daughtree> # lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID:	Ubuntu Description:	Ubuntu 8.04.2 Release:	8.04 Codename:	hardy
[09:06] <mudit> i m trying to install ejabberd for my lan
[09:06] <daughtree> DJones: that is what i saw now
[09:07] <rww> daughtree: Hardy/8.04 is LTS, yes
[09:07] <mudit> the jabber client would connect to the server on the same machine, but not on lan !
[09:07] <daughtree> ok thanks
[09:07] <gradin> so installed ubuntu using wubi and now it takes 20 minutes to boot up my laptop
[09:07] <gradin> anybody got any ideas?

[09:08] <rww> kaka: Do you have an Ubuntu support question?
[09:08] <gradin> i didn't see anything blarrinly obvious in the syslog or dmesg
[09:08] <DJones> daughtree: As mudit confirmed, 8.04/hardy is a LTS version
[09:08] <savvas> n2diy: ok, no problem, try http://packages.ubuntu.com/yourpackagename e.g. http://packages.ubuntu.com/rkhunter then click on your release, then look at the dependencies (clickable) or download the arch you want (click on i386 or amd64) and choose a download mirror
[09:08] <kaka> rww: oasi friendchup just friendy
[09:08] <gradin> but taking 3o mintues to boot into ubuntu is ridiculace

[09:09] <n2diy> savvas: roger, waiting for it to open up now.
[09:09] <IntuitiveNipple> gradin: Look in /var/log/kern.log and examine the log-message timestamps to see if there is a point where there is a large delay between messages... That'll usually give a clue as to the reason.
[09:09] <ikonia> kaka: you just said, please try to keep your chat to support only

[09:25] <Sarkie> hi guys, i'm trying to make my ubuntu a server but its failing on this error message when no monitor is plugged in
[09:25] <Sarkie> http://www.x.org/wiki/FAQErrorMessages#head-83b2f9b8c18db15e641ed9e0be8f9a8364001e5b
[09:25] <Sarkie> is there a line in the xorg.conf I can edit to tell it, not to try?
[09:26] <ikonia> Sarkie: 1.) what version of ubuntu 2.) destkop or server install 3.) what arch 32/64bit 4.) what video card
[09:27] <bnagy> hm...
[09:27] <xnevermore> hey. I've just updated my kernel, and although update-grub detects the new kernel, it won't add it to menu.1st. what could be going wrong?
[09:27] <bnagy> how do I un-fullscreen a terminal? My cat just decided to make my terminal fullscreen :P
[09:27] <Sarkie> ikonia: 8.10, desktop, 32 bit, intel based.. let me find out
[09:27] <ikonia> xnevermore: how did you update your kernel and to what version ?
[09:27] <bnagy> I think she stepped on one of the f keys :/
[09:28] <bnagy> ahha, nm, f11
[09:28] <bnagy> bad kitty!
[09:28] <xnevermore> ikonia: update-manager. to 2.6.27-12-generic
[09:28] <gradin> anybody no why ubuntu is taking 20 minutes to load?
[09:28] <ikonia> gradin: your using wubi - could be many reasons
[09:29] <p1oooop> hey alll
[09:29] <p1oooop> AP's not here?
[09:30] <xnevermore> update-grub reports "Found kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27-12-generic", then later "Updating /boot/grub/menu.lst ... done", yet the new kernel is nowhere to be found in menu.1st and doesn't appear in the menu during boot
[09:30] <p1oooop> strange
[09:30] <ikonia> p1oooop: what's up ?
[09:30] <b4chip> hi there
[09:30] <ikonia> xnevermore: have you only got one version of linux/ubuntu installed on this box ?
[09:30] <p1oooop> nothing, just decided to drop by while the USBpendrive s being written
[09:30] <b4chip> I'm I;m a user on a linux server and I have access throght it using ssh , how can I change mysql password?
[09:31] <p1oooop> you know, the live USB creator
[09:31] <smTdust> question: I got wireless working (ath0 192.168.2.1) on an embedded box, my eth0 192.168.99.101 is working as well. I can use my laptop (to which I assign a static ip of 192.168.2.2) to ssh into the embedded box. ssh works fine. however when i pull up terminal, and try to ping the eth0 port on the box from my laptop (eg ping 192.168.99.100), I get an Network Unreachable error. I have enabled ipv4 forwarding. how to i link 192.168.99.x 
[09:31] <ikonia> b4chip: mysqladmin or grant on the mysql command line
[09:31] <ewj1976> If I dual boot two linux distros and one of the installation's kernels gets updated, do I have to manually edit grub or will the distro still boot? And if so, how do I edit it (not the file, I know that, but what would change?)
[09:31] <smTdust> also..i dont care about security since the box wont be on the internet
[09:31] <p1oooop> lol
[09:32] <p1oooop> you can have a guest acount
[09:32] <ewj1976> I mean, I know which file to edit, just not how to if I must.
[09:32] <ikonia> ewj1976: depends which distro has a controlling interest in menu.lst
[09:32] <ikonia> ewj1976: or if your using a shared boot partition
[09:32] <p1oooop> smTdust:
[09:32] <xnevermore> ikonia: well there's only one install of ubuntu, if thats what you mean. but there are a few old kernels still hanging around
[09:32] <ewj1976> I installed crunchbang then linuxmint. It's mint.
[09:33] <ikonia> xnevermore: no other linux'es installed ?
[09:33] <xnevermore> ikonia: nope
[09:33] <ikonia> ewj1976: ok - so nothing to do with ubuntu so not supported here
[09:33] <ikonia> xnevermore: try removing some of the old kernels, there may be a bug in that if grub has more than $X kernels it cant update with update-grub
[09:33] <ewj1976> Okay, just curious, since crunchbang IS ubuntu with a few extra things installed.
[09:33] <ikonia> ewj1976: ok - so nothing to do with ubuntu so not supported here
[09:34] <xnevermore> ikonia: just remove them through synaptic?
[09:34] <ikonia> xnevermore: yeah
[09:34] <p1oooop> ikonia: say, do you know how to use persistent mode on the live CD?
[09:34] <p1oooop> ikonia: really...
[09:34] <ikonia> p1oooop: just a matter of making /home on a persistant disk
[09:35] <spidla> hi there .. I have got a problem .. I will probably not like me cause I am a OpenSUSE user :-) but I used to have Ubuntu 8.10 ... I have got a problem with Xorg / KDE 4 randomly freezing session. The error is relater to Xorg (according to a bug i have googled) ... the log says something about EQ overflowing ... the bug is in early state of resolving so I want to ask if there is any workaround
[09:35] <spidla> *You will
[09:35] <p1oooop> ikonia: does it save EVERYTHING that way?
[09:36] <ikonia> p1oooop: no - just your user settings/preferences
[09:36] <p1oooop> ikonia: awww... well... good enough
[09:36] <corinth> Is anyone here using harbour-launcher?
[09:36] <Sarkie> ikonia: 82865G Intel Integrated
[09:37] <spidla> any suggestions ?
[09:38] <Uplink> whats the command to cp dirs?
[09:38] <p1oooop> I am so jealous of some of you guys... actual domain names... :'(

[09:40] <cr4z3d> yes dyndns cand be used

[09:41] <bnagy> ohh kay -  still can't resolve this xulrunner issue
[09:42] <bnagy> I removed it and firefox etc and I now have a clean apt-get -f install
[09:42] <p1oooop> frizen again?
[09:43] <ActionParsnip1> bnagy: you may have to use force to uninstall at some point, I had that same issue.
[09:44] <bnagy> in the post-install for xulrunner-1.9 it looks for /usr/bin/xulrunner-$XUL-VERSION, I checked another box and that's just a symlink to ../lib/xulblahblah/xulrunner
[09:45] <bnagy> AP: hm, I tried purge already
[09:45] <rww> !netsplit
[09:45] <nananuu> Hi I have Ubuntu 8.04 LTS I dont have any support any more yes?
[09:46] <bnagy> I tried just creating the symlink but it then dies on some missing library
[09:46] <rww> nananuu: LTS releases are supported for three years on the desktop and five on the server, so you do still have support. Desktop support ends in April, 2011
[09:47] <nananuu> oo thanks rww  :) that means I don`t need to reinstal :)
[09:48] <rww> nananuu: If I remember correctly, the next LTS comes out in 2010, and you'll be able to upgrade directly to it from 8.04. You don't need to worry about anything until then :)
[09:48] <bnagy> ActionParsnip1: is there any command to force uninstall more than apt-get remove ; apt-get purge?
[09:49] <nananuu> That`s good rww
[09:54] <georgeaf> hey guys, how can i start pulseaudio after i killed it on ubuntu 8.10 ?
[09:56] <rww> !netsplit
[09:57] <Stueh> QuadroFX Go700 (revision 1)
[09:57] <SiDi> yeh probably
[09:57] <malakhi> dayo: for any of a dozen reasons, the link between freenode's servers dropped out.
[09:57] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: awesome nvidia is massively supported :D
[09:57] <artistx> can i configure wubi to install artistx
[09:57] <jasonchin> i can have access to the internet but i got problem connecting to computers in a windows workgroup
[09:57] <SiDi> a pretty scary one yeh
[09:57] <smTdust> smtd
[09:57] <artistx> can i configure wubi to install artistx
[09:57] <histo> dayo__: there are multiple nodes and when one drops it splits the network in to 2 pieces.
[09:57] <ActionParsnip1> jasonchin: can you ping them by name  and ip?
[09:57] <YAA1> histo: yep.. I need the User-Lockout feature (with samba on LDAP) if a user failed XX logon attempts. It seems that this problem is fixed only in 3.3.x+  . I tested Samba 3.0.x and 3.2.x on Debian etch+lenny with NO LUCK. will test samba 3.3.x on debian soon. but asking for 3.3. on ubuntu too, because ubuntu may be our next server OS maybe.
[09:57] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-173

[09:58] <georgeaf> i want to start pulseaudio again after i killed it, it's giving me 'device or resource busy' how can i start it ?
[09:58] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: not working

[09:58] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: after thats installed run: gksudo nvidia-settings
[09:58] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: helps to close other package managers
[09:58] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: kk cheers
[09:58] <Spike1506> !netsplit
[09:59] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: yep, you can only have 1 package app accessing the packages at one time
[09:59] <p1oooop> ActionParsnip1: ? I want to open a config file that "belongs" to root
[09:59] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: can't find package, do I need to add a URL?
[09:59] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: I'm on a fresh install of 8.04
[09:59] <Cruster> dayo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[10:00] <p1oooop> 8.10 is the latest
[10:00] <p1oooop> :D
[10:00] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: ahhh thats why, sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[10:00] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: Righto thank's mate
[10:00] <ActionParsnip1> p1oooop: 8.04 is LTS, 8.10 isnt

[10:01] <ActionParsnip1> jasonchin: and the name?
[10:01] <georgeaf> people, i think this is an easy question, i want to start pulseaudio again after i killed it, it's giving me 'device or resource busy' how can i start it ?
[10:01] <Hemebond> Argh. My volume buttons keep changing what mixer/volume control they control.
[10:01] <jasonchin> ActionParsnip1: how and where can i ping the name of network computers?
[10:01] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: nvidia-glx has no installation candidate
[10:01] <Hemebond> Right now the buttons are changing 4 different playback controls.
[10:01] <emine> salut
[10:02] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: apt-cache search nvidia
[10:02] <Stueh> says the package is not available but is reffered to by another package

[10:03] <randu> Hello ppl, I have a problem with Ubuntu server. I rebooted and now the interfaces are being ignored (or so ubuntu claims). Thus, no network. When I try to ping, the following message comes up: WARNING: Interface is ignored: Operation not permitted \n connect: Network is unreachable. The file /etc/networking/interfaces is correctly configured (since it worked until now), static ip. Any ideas, anyone? Please? :)
[10:03] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: can I pm?
[10:03] <p1oooop> jasonchin: usually 192.168.1.XXX
[10:03] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: use the pastebin and put the link in here
[10:03] <jasonchin> ActionParsnip1: i got the ip address...
[10:04] <ActionParsnip1> jasonchin: ok then if you can ping you have a logical connection. Try: smb://x.y.z.a/<share foldername>  in your file browser (replace the relevat ip address and share name)
[10:04] <YAA1> randu: had something similar. what interface-name do you use in your interfaces file ? and what available interfaces dies it shot when you do a "ifconfig -a" ??
[10:04] <savvas> Stueh: what's the output of: lspci | grep VGA
[10:04] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: if you paste to pastebin and then give the address your browser goes to we can read it all
[10:04] <YAA1> randu: ... interfaces does it show ...
[10:04] <jasonchin> ActionParsnip1: but i do the ping from the network tools under System-->administration tools...Is there any other way to ping?
[10:04] <ActionParsnip1> savvas: geforce go 700 quattro
[10:05] <randu> YAA1: it shows eth0 and lo. I only have them in interfaces.
[10:05] <ActionParsnip1> jasonchin: its a command line command. ping
[10:05] <creative83> Where did the feisty repos go?
[10:05] <ActionParsnip1> do they seriously have a gui app for ping?
[10:05] <ActionParsnip1> !feisty
[10:05] <ActionParsnip1> creative83: feisty is dead
[10:06] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: Sorry, I'm a bit slow, not used to this, and I'm still in 800x600 reso =P Anyhoo - http://paste.ubuntu.com/119611/
[10:06] <savvas> ActionParsnip1: the gui ping i think it's System > Administration > Network tools
[10:06] <moby> hello. how can I one and all the time set volume on 100%? allways when I turn on ubuntu volume is 0%.
[10:06] <creative83> ActionParsnip1: Uups.. I thought I installed LTS. So I was wrong on this I guess ;)
[10:06] <ActionParsnip1> creative83: even LTS releases die
[10:06] <ActionParsnip1> !hardy
[10:07] <YAA1> randu: dies "ifconfig -a" show you a eth0 ?? and does it have a IP Adress bound ?
[10:07] <YAA1> randu: does
[10:07] <bnagy> ok, so if I can't install xulrunner-1.9, is there a way I can force install an older firefox that doesn't need it?
[10:07] <sastha> How to find whether the ubuntu installed by system is 32-bit version or 64-bit version?
[10:07] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: Do I want xserver-xorg-video-nv and nvidia-config packages ?
[10:07] <savvas> Stueh: what does this command return: lsb_release -d
[10:07] <randu> YAA1: i tried "ifconfig" and it shows: eth0 and lo. I can go back to the server room and try "ifconfig -a" if you want to. eth0 has an ip address bound.
[10:08] <hateball> sastha: uname -a
[10:08] <savvas> sastha: uname -m
[10:08] <Stueh> Ubuntu 8.04.2
[10:08] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: you need to enable the restricted driver repo
[10:09] <savvas> Stueh: enable the universe multiverse and restricted repositories from System > Administration > Software sources
[10:09] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: maybe a stupid question ... but how do I do that? =S
[10:09] <Stueh> Ah cheers savvas
[10:09] <p1oooop> anyone know what the multiverse enable/disable is for?
[10:09] <savvas> np:)
[10:09] <YAA1> randu: hmm strange.. recheck physical network link to the switch and make sure you are root when trying ping. ping yourself first (127.0.0.1), then your local ip, gateway a.s.o.
[10:09] <ikonia> p1oooop: enable/disable the repo
[10:09] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:09] <rww> !multiverse | p1oooop
[10:10] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: find the word restricted and uncomment the lines (delete the # at the start of the line). Here is a guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/CommandLine
[10:10] <randu> YAA1: allright, I will put the network cable in another computer and I will try to ping as root. I will be back to tell the results.
[10:10] <savvas> ActionParsnip1: already told him, sorry I jumped in :)
[10:10] <p1oooop> ikonia: ok, I was wondering cause I needed to enable that in order to install adobe falsh
[10:10] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: done =)
[10:10] <p1oooop> *flash
[10:10] <ActionParsnip1> savvas: np man, its all good
[10:10] <randu> YAA1: will try to ping when cable is connected to server lol :)
[10:11] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: ok save, close gedit
[10:11] <Stueh> righto
[10:11] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: sudo apt-get update

[10:14] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: Hrm, I'm an idiot, I pasted the update as well >.>
[10:14] <Stueh> Sorry!

[10:17] <B10S> nice, thanks

[10:19] <bnagy> this xulrunner this is driving me nuts
[10:19] <Stueh> Ooh unpacking!
[10:19] <ActionParsnip1> bnagy: can you pastebin the command you are executing as well as the resulting output
[10:19] <Stueh> Ooh done!
[10:19] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: all done?
[10:19] <bnagy> the postinst scripts refers to /usr/bin/xulrunner-1.9, but that file doesn't exist and it's not listed in the .list for the package
[10:20] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: Now, in JWM I would restart Xorg ... what do I need to do here? O=)
[10:20] <bnagy> ActionParsnip1: not really, no firefox, which is the whole thing :)
[10:20] <ActionParsnip1> bnagy: create it manually with: sudo touch /usr/bin/xulrunner-1.9
[10:20] <ActionParsnip1> bnagy: paste the text to a text file
[10:21] <bnagy> ActionParsnip1: I did better - it's just a symlink to a file in the xulrunner lib dir, so I created it
[10:21] <ActionParsnip1> bnagy: siudo apt-get install pastebinit; pastebinit /path/to/fileyoucreated
[10:21] <bnagy> but then it barfs on a missing library

[10:22] <bnagy> ahh.. ok I think I can do that, just command >& file?
[10:22] <degrit> does all the audio stuff get restarted/reset if I restart X ?
[10:22] <ActionParsnip1> bnagy: can you install pastebinit?
[10:22] <simple|eeepc> this might be an odd question, but why does the alternate cd ask me to insert the alternate cd whilst installing
[10:22] <Stueh> Says I need to run nvidia-xconfig first, so I run that, but then it came up with the same error ...
[10:22] <simple|eeepc> ?
[10:22] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: Says I need to run nvidia-xconfig first, so I run that, but then it came up with the same error ...
[10:23] <simple|eeepc> In the install base system step
[10:23] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: ok, close that lot down then run:sudo nvidia-config    then hit ctrl+alt+backspace
[10:23] <simple|eeepc> it asks for me to insert the alternate cd in the cd drive, however it locks the cd tray and the disk itself is infact the 8.10 alternate cd

[10:34] <ActionParsnip1> simple|eeepc: ok, well all I can suggest is check ram but you may need different boot options, Check around the place. You could also try disabling hardware in your bios like sound cards and the like justuntil you get installed

[10:35] <simple|eeepc> ActionParsnip1, memtest came up clean

[10:39] <ubersoft> Hi there, anyone here to help me some stuff,
[10:39] <aniiena> So changes are persistant, like I could use a different desktop environment from say Ubuntu/Xubuntu
[10:39] <ubersoft> i need to install "SQUID with DELAY POOLS"
[10:39] <aniiena> but differences in hardware wouldn't be an issue?
[10:39] <ActionParsnip1> aniiena: they will be on the usb stick
[10:39] <ubersoft> so any one who have some hands on this stuff !!!
[10:40] <Extend> please anyone check and help me http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/119625/
[10:40] <ActionParsnip1> aniiena: there are a lot of drivers on the install to support most
[10:40] <aniiena> would it make sense to have a bunch of different xorg.conf's premade for different LCDs/resolution?
[10:40] <ActionParsnip1> !nvidia | Stueh
[10:40] <ActionParsnip1> Stueh: try that
[10:40] <ubersoft> ActionParsnip1 are you helping others ? please help me in this stuff of installing "SQUID with DELAY POOLS"
[10:40] <Stueh> ActionParsnip1: Righto, cheers mate
[10:40] <ActionParsnip1> aniiena: thats where you will have issues but you could make a few xorg.confs and switch manually between
[10:41] <Favorit> hola
[10:41] <ubersoft> ! ubottu
[10:41] <ActionParsnip1> ubersoft: i have never used squid, thats why i didnt reply,
[10:41] <aniiena> So let's say my computer that I want to run ClamAV has a nvidia driver and my friend's has an ATI card.
[10:41] <ActionParsnip1> ubersoft: there are 68 users in #squid
[10:41] <ubersoft> Ok, anyone here who can tell me what to do to install squid with DELAY POOLS.
[10:41] <aniiena> Will it autodetect that settings have changed and change drivers (or prompt me to) as appropriate?
[10:42] <Favorit> ubersoft: install quid, configure delay pools?
[10:42] <Favorit> squid that is
[10:42] <ActionParsnip1> aniiena: then you will need both ati and nvidia drivers installed, ten 2 xorg.conf files which you will have to manually switch then restart x to get a good display
[10:42] <ubersoft> Yes Favorit
[10:42] <ActionParsnip1> Favorit: no efb today :D
[10:42] <aniiena> ahh ok, thanks
[10:42] <ubersoft> Actually,, when we use apt-get to install squid, they just install it defauly.
[10:42] <Favorit> ActionParsnip1: efb?
[10:42] <ubersoft> default* and no configuration takes place.
[10:42] <bnagy> ubersoft: you just need to configure it
[10:43] <Favorit> ubersoft: http://quark.humbug.org.au/publications/squid/aclsquid.html
[10:43] <aniiena> So if I just want a mountable Linux to run ClamAV on
[10:43] <ActionParsnip1> Favorit: the guy yesterday on about --purge
[10:43] <bnagy> google 'configure squid delay pools' :P
[10:43] <aniiena> would it make more sense to go with PuppyLinux over say Ubuntu on a livecd?
[10:43] <Favorit> ActionParsnip1: fde he was or so
[10:43] <aniiena> err liveusb
[10:43] <ActionParsnip1> aniiena: yeah, the video switching in puppy is awesome imho
[10:43] <ubersoft> bnagy i have tried something else for it, i wget the file and dowloaded it in /var/tmp and then tar it...
[10:43] <ActionParsnip1> Favorit: that too ;)
[10:43] <B1OS> ActionParsnip1: worked, thanks :)
[10:43] <ubersoft> then by doing some CD. i used ./configure.
[10:43] <Favorit> ActionParsnip1: well, he still didn't convince me ;)
[10:43] <ubersoft> but it gives error...
[10:44] <ActionParsnip1> B1OS: its windowsy, but reboots can fix a lot
[10:44] <ActionParsnip1> Favorit: me neither
[10:44] <trancefat> Hi All, I m trying to access the internet using my mobile phone with Bluetooth but I m stuck at a point where i must open bt-applet
[10:44] <Favorit> ubersoft: don't compile squid, apt-get it
[10:44] <bnagy> ubersoft: you can install it however you want, but it won't enable delay pools until you conifgure them
[10:44] <trancefat> I cant find bt-applet
[10:44] <ubersoft> configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH
[10:44] <Favorit> exactly
[10:44] <trancefat> ALT+F2 doesnt open it
[10:44] <ubersoft> ok and then...
[10:44] <int256> any screen capturing software ?.
[10:44] <Favorit> don't compile stuff which you can install from the repo
[10:44] <Favorit> ubersoft: apt-get install squid, read http://quark.humbug.org.au/publications/squid/aclsquid.html
[10:44] <ubersoft> ok after getting apt-get then.
[10:45] <ubersoft> Oke let me c.

[11:07] <ActionParsnip1> int256: wow impressive
[11:07] <ActionParsnip1> int256: have you installed guest additions?
[11:07] <int256> ActionParsnip1: wait i will send you screenchot
[11:07] <int256> ActionParsnip1: ya
[11:07] <Shwaiil> Hi ppl!
[11:08] <ActionParsnip1> int256: use tinypi / imageshack
[11:08] <leneko> i have some ssh relative question
[11:08] <int256> ActionParsnip1: ok
[11:09] <macrobad> Hi, guys! Could someone tell me why Ubuntu doesn't include OpenOffice.Org 3?
[11:09] <bazhang> !imagebin
[11:09] <Shwaiil> Q: I'm not a ubuntu user, I want to start with it, pretty soon. I would like to know, if its possible to change driver letters (from partitions), easily in Ubuntu? also, is it possible to create virtual drivers from folders, like is done in win ? Please let me know, thanks for your atention! ;D
[11:09] <licantrup> thanks ActionParsnip1
[11:10] <rww> macrobad: It was released too close to the Intrepid release date to be properly tested, and Ubuntu releases aren't updated with major package changes after they come out. The next version, Jaunty, will have OO.org 3
[11:10] <Ciantic> I used sshfs, can I make the desktop unmount to work? Or do I have to manually always "fusermount -u dir"
[11:11] <roy_> Ciao
[11:11] <macrobad> Shwaiil: You might be surprised to know there are no drives letters in Linux at all. :) Just try it, and ask questions afterwards. If you've never had any experience with Linux you would not be able to guess how it looks like.
[11:11] <macrobad> rww: Thanks!
[11:12] <creative83> How do I upgrade 7.04 to 7.10? do-release-pgrade  doesn't work because it can't fetch the Package lists...
[11:12] <creative83> It's a server so I have to do it with CLI
[11:12] <int256> ActionParsnip1: http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/4597/702423nf2.png
[11:13] <Shwaiil> macrobad, thanks! Unfortunately, I use a remote power computer center, that uses win directory/folder structure. There's no way I could emulate that, right?

[11:13] <ActionParsnip1> int256: good ol xp
[11:14] <ActionParsnip1> int256: why do you need a virtual xp?
[11:14] <int256> ActionParsnip1: to play games
[11:14] <ActionParsnip1> int256: only 2d games will work
[11:15] <NIT[L]> hello, i was wondering if someone can help me with my problem
[11:15] <macrobad> Shwaiil: I am not sure what you call a "win directory/folder structure". There is a filesystem in Linux, which helps you to avoid all the hassle with drive letters. I cannot see why you should not be able to create an arbitary directory tree in Linux.
[11:15] <chu_> I bought a 500gb external, it says it only works with windows and mac os x, just plugged it in and it was detected fine :)
[11:15] <s-toned> How do I change the "mouse-resize-button" from middle button  to right button?
[11:15] <ActionParsnip1> !ask | NIT[L]
[11:15] <int256> ActionParsnip1: is it. but i enable 3d acceleration
[11:15] <ActionParsnip1> int256: its not gonna happen
[11:15] <ActionParsnip1> int256: try it
[11:15] <int256> ActionParsnip1: ok
[11:16] <NIT[L]> ok well, i can't get ubuntu to display in 1440x900 resolution. I have 180.29 nvidia drivers.

[11:16] <temoto> How to express   127.0.0.1 *.something in   /etc/hosts?
[11:17] <ActionParsnip1> !appdb | int256
[11:17] <macrobad> Shwaiil: You can think of it, as if there was a "root" drive, which included all other drives as its folders, and allowed to arbitarily create and delete those folders, as well, as rename and assign drives to them in any way you like it.
[11:18] <int256> ubottu: i tried to run it in wine. but failed
[11:18] <ActionParsnip1> int256: looks like its in the new 2.1 but its an experiment implementatio of opengl

[11:20] <ActionParsnip1> int256: you could try installing in the vbox, i'm not sure its gonna fly
[11:21] <int256> ActionParsnip1: does the wine 2,1 released ?
[11:21] <wallunit> When I start my system alsa does not work untill i have started alsamixer the first time. How can that be?
[11:22] <ActionParsnip1> int256: i meant vbox 2.1
[11:22] <NIT[L]> Anybody know how to get ubuntu to display in 1440x900. It doesnt show that resolution in the display settings.
[11:22] <ActionParsnip1> wallunit: read through: dmesg | less
[11:22] <Sarkie> edit the xorg.conf?
[11:22] <int256> ActionParsnip1: i am using vbox 2.1.2
[11:22] <NIT[L]> I am new to linux so could you help please
[11:22] <wallunit> ActionParsnip1: After boot or after starting alsamixer?
[11:22] <ActionParsnip1> int256: then it may work with 3d, i have my reservations but thre no harm in having a go
[11:23] <int256> ActionParsnip1: ok
[11:23] <ActionParsnip1> wallunit: whenever, just read through, its gonna be a long read but should tell you whats going on
[11:24] <NIT[L]> Sarkie: could you help  me edit "xorg.conf" , new linux user here
[11:25] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: can you pastebin your current file pleasae
[11:26] <ActionParsnip1> !paste | NIT[L]
[11:26] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: ah ok, 2 ticks
[11:27] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: or you can: sudo apt-get install pastebinit; pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:27] <creative83> Any way to upgrade 7.04 now? It seems that do-release-upgrade don't work because it relies on non-existent repos
[11:27] <NIT[L]> http://paste.ubuntu.com/119635/
[11:27] <ActionParsnip1> !upgrade | creative83
[11:27] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: whats the output of lspci | grep -i vga
[11:27] <creative83> ActionParsnip1: Did check that pages. They suggest using do-release-upgrade which fails.
[11:27] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: you havent configured any video drivers
[11:28] <chu_> Can we add new "knowledge" to ubottu? I mean, for instance:
[11:28] <chu_> !acpi
[11:28] <ActionParsnip1> creative83: did you run it with gksudo
[11:28] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 8400M GS (rev a1)
[11:29] <Leissi> so uh
[11:29] <Leissi> hey again
[11:29] <ActionParsnip1> creative83: sudo aptitude install update-manager-core; sudo do-release-upgrade
[11:29] <creative83> ActionParsnip1: Nope. Its CLI (Server). But I now found https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades which describes the solution for my problem.
[11:29] <Sarkie> Hi guys, still having this problem http://www.x.org/wiki/FAQErrorMessages#head-83b2f9b8c18db15e641ed9e0be8f9a8364001e5b. Running ubuntu 8.10, desktop, intel 5xxxx series graphics on board. When I unplug my monitor, since i want to run it as a server with VNC access?
[11:30] <creative83> ActionParsnip1: That won't work as described in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[11:30] <ActionParsnip1> creative83: and what is the output of lsb_release -c
[11:30] <creative83> ActionParsnip1: But they have a solution there
[11:30] <rww> creative83: Thanks for that EOLUpgrades link. I've been looking everywhere for it (we get a bunch of people with your problem).
[11:30] <Leissi> there's a linux client of a game I want to play (Dwarf Fortress, to be specific). I got a .tar.bz2 archive of it, but it wants to run in wine, even though it should run without
[11:30] <coz_> guys I noticed on intrepid recently , if for example i open search for files, go to other and the search opens it is slow as heck  any fix for this?
[11:30] <creative83> ActionParsnip1: I'm using feisty.
[11:30] <Leissi> how can I change it to run in linux instead?
[11:30] <creative83> rww: np. Was at the bottom of the UpgradeNotes Page ;)
[11:31] <rww> creative83: ah. I must have missed that :)
[11:31] <moritzge> I have a server running ubuntu server. I mounted the second hd to "/home/moritz". the user "moritz" can see the files in "/home/moritz", but all the others can't.... I tried "chmod -R 777 /home/moritz", didn't work. Do I have to change the fstab options?
[11:31] <ActionParsnip1> Leissi: http://www.dwarffortresswiki.net/index.php/System_requirements
[11:32] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: what's the output of lsb_release -c
[11:32] <wallunit> ActionParsnip1: There is nothing related to alsa or my soundcard in dmesg
[11:32] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: Codename:	intrepid
[11:32] <ActionParsnip1> wallunit: o but does the soundcard come up ok?
[11:33] <wallunit> What does come up means? do you refer to lspci?
[11:33] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-177
[11:33] <ActionParsnip1> wallunit: no, in the dmesg, does the card get an irq and get setup correctly?
[11:33] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: I am using 180.29 drivers by the way
[11:34] <wallunit> ActionParsnip1: I don't think so, what should i grep for?
[11:34] <ActionParsnip1> wallunit: nothing, just read it down
[11:34] <ActionParsnip1> wallunit: dmesg | less
[11:34] <InDaLivingRoom> hi ActionParsnip1:)
[11:34] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: ok then run: gksudo nvidia-settings
[11:34] <ActionParsnip1> hi InDaLivingRoom
[11:35] <InDaLivingRoom> i have attached my multimedia pc to the hd tv and everything works just fine so far, exept movies flicker
[11:35] <InDaLivingRoom>  how can i fix this?
[11:35] <InDaLivingRoom> ActionParsnip1: ah opps its me, remote:D
[11:35] <simple|eeepc> InDaLivingRoom, did you install all drivers?
[11:35] <InDaLivingRoom> simple|eeepc: yes
[11:36] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: does it say to run a command as root?
[11:36] <InDaLivingRoom> simple|eeepc: its an ati 4670
[11:36] <simple|eeepc> InDaLivingRoom, installed the latest ATI drivers?
[11:36] <ActionParsnip1> looks like he worked it out
[11:36] <moritzge> what options do i have to set in /etc/fstab for a ext3-device so that every user can read it?
[11:36] <InDaLivingRoom> simple|eeepc: intrepid did an update of the driver and the control center
[11:37] <simple|eeepc> moritzge, why would you want that?
[11:37] <simple|eeepc> k
[11:37] <InDaLivingRoom> simple|eeepc: i cannot find anything newer on amd hp as 46xx series doenst seem to exist there in the driver section...
[11:37] <ActionParsnip1> moritzge: here's mine:http://pastebin.com/f5ab4f22d
[11:38] <wallunit> ActionParsnip1: I have read it, but i wasn't able to find something related to the soundcard. But there is a lot of cryptic pci stuff, maybe there it is.
[11:38] <n2diy> How do I setup a sterile box with Ubuntu?
[11:38] <moritzge> simple|eeepc: it is my music harddrive, and all users shall have access to it
[11:38] <ActionParsnip1> moritzge: try defaults,realtime
[11:38] <ActionParsnip1> wallunit: maybe alsa isnt loading right
[11:38] <moritzge> ActionParsnip1: k
[11:39] <ActionParsnip1> moritzge: failing that try some websearching or man fstab is quite useful too
[11:39] <ActionParsnip1> moritzge: remember to create an empty folder to mount to
[11:40] <wallunit> ActionParsnip1: However after running alsamixer, it works, even though there are no new entries in dmesg.
[11:40] <ActionParsnip1> moritzge: http://www.hafenscher.net/wiki/index.php?page=Mount_USB_stick_read_and_writable_for_users may help with options too
[11:40] <moritzge> ActionParsnip1: already various options in fstab... also chmod -R 777. the owner can read it, but all other users can't ... any idea?
[11:40] <ActionParsnip1> wallunit: weird, bit of a hack but you could autorun alsa mixer to get you sorted
[11:40] <InDaLivingRoom> simple|eeepc: err... suddenly i am not so sure anymore if i have all of the driver files installed, could you have a look at this please?  http://www.nopaste.org/p/a9hpr15v9
[11:40] <moritzge> ActionParsnip1: thx for the link
[11:41] <ActionParsnip1> wallunit: try uid=1000
[11:41] <wallunit> ActionParsnip1: I now, that i could do it. but this is ugly.
[11:41] <ActionParsnip1> wallunit: i'd use it for now until you can work it out
[11:41] <ActionParsnip1> wallunit: you could try reinstalling alsa, or compile it
[11:42] <n2diy> How do I setup a sterile box with Ubuntu?
[11:42] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: whats a sterile box?
[11:43] <n2diy> ActionParsnip1: one that has never been exsposed to the internet, worms, vinuses, etc...
[11:43] <Firio> Hi all. I'm not using ubuntu now,but can u answer me one thing.. Wich channel on this server can I get help to set up my real infobot with mysql and all the other things that r needed for the infobot to get the infobot to work?
[11:43] <wallunit> ActionParsnip1: I have already done apt-get --reinstall install alsa-base alsa-utils; dpkg-reconfigure alsa-base alsa-utils
[11:43] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: very few of those for linux (none are wild)
[11:44] <InDaLivingRoom> can someone pls tell me if this is all that i need to properly operate an ati card?  http://www.nopaste.org/p/a9hpr15v9
[11:45] <Firio> ?
[11:46] <n2diy> ActionParsnip1: true, but rootkits and such are out there, but to use chkrootkit, I have to DL it from the internet, exsposing my sterile box to all the nasties that chkrootkit should guard against., or detect.
[11:46] <oskar-> hi, when my laptop goes into suspend, the display isn't turned off, while it works, when closing the lid. any hints for a solution?
[11:46] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: then download it and burn to a cd
[11:46] <moritzge> i mounted a hd to /home/moritz. then i did "chown -R moritz /home/moritz" and "chmod -R 777 /home/moritz". now the user moritz can read it, but all the others can't.... any idea?
[11:46] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: you can scan the file for nastys et al on the downloading system
[11:47] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: if you arent downloading from the web why have protection
[11:47] <Firio> second time askedI'm not using ubuntu now,but can u answer me one thing.. Wich channel on this server can I get help to set up my real infobot with mysql and all the other things that r needed for the infobot to get the infobot to work?
[11:48] <Geek`N`Proud> Firio, try #mysql for mysql help?
[11:48] <ActionParsnip1> Firio: if you wait to ask stdin, i think h owns the ubottu bot. he may be able to advise
[11:49] <n2diy> ActionParsnip1: I can't download it without exposing the box to the internet. How do I know the system doing the DL isn't compromised? I plan to download from the interenet, that is why I want a secure box to start with.
[11:49] <Geek`N`Proud> Firio, also:  http://www.missprint.org/infobot/
[11:49] <redspike> anyone know howto get adobe to display .pdf files right, if the font is helvetica adobe reader cant display them can i download the helvetica font in some package?
[11:49] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: ow can you be sure of anything online
[11:49] <oskar-> moritzge, do all containing directories have correct permissions? have you looked at: ls -l /home/moritz
[11:49] <Geek`N`Proud> they have a mailing list =]
[11:49] <Geek`N`Proud> they may be able to help too
[11:49] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: the data traverses a multitude of interconnection devices
[11:49] <mhiku> how can i install php6 in apt-get?
[11:49] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: you gotta draw the line somewhere
[11:49] <Geek`N`Proud> redspike, mstcorefonts
[11:49] <Geek`N`Proud> something like that
[11:50] <Geek`N`Proud> it's in the ubuntu-restricted-extras metapackage
[11:50] <mhiku> what do i type
[11:50] <redspike> Geek`N`Proud: i have installed them :( but it dosen help
[11:50] <Geek`N`Proud> redspike, what about KPDF or evince?
[11:50] <n2diy> ActionParsnip1: No I can't, is it too hard to put chkrootkit on the install CD, so as to avoid this issue?
[11:50] <Geek`N`Proud> they should work better than Adobe's stuff
[11:51] <redspike> Geek`N`Proud: dosent work in evince ether :(
[11:51] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: ive not done it
[11:51] <Geek`N`Proud> ah damn :(
[11:51] <mhiku> can someone know how to install php6 in apt-get or aptitude?
[11:51] <ActionParsnip1> mhiku: apt-cache search php6
[11:51] <ActionParsnip1> !php
[11:51] <Geek`N`Proud> mhiku, there is no PHP6 in the standard repos
[11:51] <msingh_> is there a way to install a specific version of a package. i want gstreamer 1.0.20 and 1.0.18 is installed.
[11:52] <InDaLivingRoom> flickering movies on hdtv with ati 4670, any help appreciated:)
[11:52] <Geek`N`Proud> msingh_, you need to make a package for that
[11:52] <ezerhoden> msingh_: apt-pinning
[11:52] <Geek`N`Proud> Ubuntu is not bleeding edge
[11:52] <msingh_> ezerhoden, i dont understand.
[11:52] <n2diy> ActionParsnip1: So, I'm supposed to tell my customers I "think" Ubuntu is more secure than Windows? That sells!
[11:53] <Geek`N`Proud> msingh_, apt-pinning allows you to pin specific packages from a repo to be installed
[11:53] <mhiku> whats the default ./configure apt-get uses so i can install php 6 in make
[11:53] <msingh_> how do i install it?
[11:53] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: its only as secure as its config
[11:53] <bazhang> !pinning
[11:53] <Geek`N`Proud> mhiku, ./configure --prefix=/usr should roundabout help you
[11:53] <mhiku> and i can intall php 6 successfully?
[11:53] <remoteCTRL> bazhang: good to see ya, may i adress you with a graphics problem,pls?
[11:53] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy, Windows is secure if you configure it right
[11:53] <mhiku> thank you
[11:54] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: so you can only really say that, I could lock down a windows box loads then leave a linux box fully uncontrolled,which is more secure now?
[11:54] <n2diy> ActionParsnip1: Exactly, and I can't config Ubuntu, without exsposing it to the internet, it's a Catch-22
[11:54] <bazhang> remoteCTRL, please ask the channel :)
[11:54] <remoteCTRL> bazhang: been doing so:-/
[11:54] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: well then you must draw your security line lower as it is currently unfeasibly high
[11:54] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy, it's secure-by-default when it comes to network services
[11:55] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy, only open service is avahi-daemon which ignores internet packets
[11:55] <Geek`N`Proud> and that service won't show on port scans
[11:55] <bazhang> remoteCTRL, as indalivingroom? is that you?
[11:55] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: your security solution is hugely unrealistic. Do you have a tinfoil hat too?
[11:55] <Firio> I tried to ask in #mysql , but they don't support infobot
[11:55] <Firio> Where shall i then try?
[11:56] <MindSpark> hi, is there any way to prevent the update manager to upgrade a package ?
[11:56] <Geek`N`Proud> Firio, http://www.missprint.org/infobot/
[11:56] <Geek`N`Proud> they will know for sure
[11:56] <Geek`N`Proud> =]

[11:57] <bazhang> remoteCTRL, also which apps? totem, mplayer vlc?
[11:57] <n2diy> ActionParsnip1: no, the tin foil hat was ruined in the washing machine. A Google search of Ubunty Security reveals numerous vulnerablities, I'm just trying to lock down a virgin install of Hardy, and I can't do it securely.
[11:57] <remoteCTRL> bazhang: all of them
[11:57] <creative83> Upgrade information from 7.04 to 7.10 on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades doesn't work
[11:57] <reanimation> #ubuntu-in
[11:57] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy, what vulnerabilities?
[11:58] <bazhang> n2diy, then remaster with it in
[11:58] <bazhang> !remaster > n2diy
[11:58] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: there are vulnerabilities in all OSes, look at the windows list. Its massive as well
[11:58] <Enissay> Is there any apps that take care of HDD: Defragmentation, cleaning, repairing errors.....?
[11:58] <MindSpark> ActionParsnip1, and Geek`N`Proud thanks ! checking'em out
[11:58] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: and MacOS is too
[11:58] <creative83> It still looks for  http://us.archive.ubuntu.com feisty-backports which doesn't exist anymore
[11:58] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy, most "vulnerabilities" aren't directly exploitable on a default install
[11:58] <Favorit> n2diy: googling for Ubuntu Security is about as useful as googling for "glimpses in time space continuum"
[11:58] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: remember the awesome song. Every OS sucks by 2 dead trolls in a baggie
[11:58] <Geek`N`Proud> heck.. with exception to IGMP.. most of Windows 98 isn't directly exploitable till you yourself do something
[11:59] <bazhang> remoteCTRL, you may wish to check fusion-icon, unless you need to do 3d cube while watching movie; one click and disabled, and vice versa
[11:59] <Firio> that site didn't help me much,Geek.. but thanks anyway

[12:01] <p1oooop> you have to use home-rw
[12:01] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy:  you can update after install without the Internet you know
[12:01] <Geek`N`Proud> just as a thought
[12:01] <n2diy> ActionParsnip1: no, I never heard it, was B. Gates on lead vocals?
[12:01] <bazhang> creative83, and you updated the sources.list?
[12:01] <Favorit> what's the point of having a server without net connection? :P
[12:01] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: nope 2 guys, its a slate at allOSes cos they all crash and all have issues, its a chuckle
[12:01] <p1oooop> now I can't mount usb drive which is a good sign that its working
[12:01] <Geek`N`Proud> you can specify directories as repos in sources.list
[12:01] <creative83> bazhang: yes. I'm starting with a completely new sources.list now.
[12:02] <giaco_> how can I synchronize a local directory with an ftp folder?
[12:02] <ActionParsnip1> giaco_: i'd look into rsync
[12:02] <remoteCTRL> bazhang: i was thinking in direction refreshrate so i never thought about compiz...
[12:02] <giaco_> Acidic31, I've heard that rsync is needed on both ends
[12:03] <giaco_> aups
[12:03] <bazhang> remoteCTRL, glad its working now
[12:03] <MindSpark> is there a way to list all the held packages ?
[12:03] <giaco_> ActionParsnip1, *
[12:03] <ActionParsnip1> n2diy: so you get the system upgraded to the latest stuff. How does it sell a secure system. "look this system hasnt been on the web and its not been intruded. Isnt it secure"
[12:03] <n2diy> Favorit: my plan is to rescue/salvage old hardware, and put it back online. I'm paranoid about selling stuff as secure, when I'm not confident it is. But I guess I could give out free tin foil hats with each system?
[12:03] <Cherepok> hello
[12:03] <creative83> bazhang: It fails because it can't fetch Err http://us.archive.ubuntu.com feisty-backports/main/debian-installer But I don't have such a line in sources.list
[12:03] <bazhang> n2diy, remaster with it in.
[12:03] <Favorit> n2diy: define secure
[12:03] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy, set it up with a basic IPTables setup
[12:03] <ActionParsnip1> MindSpark: try dpkg -l | grep <package you just held>   to see what its installed state is (left most colomn)
[12:04] <remoteCTRL> bazhang: yeah thanks once more, you made me a very happy man:D
[12:04] <Cherepok> wtf?
[12:04] <creative83> bazhang: So it must takes this information from somewhere else
[12:04] <Favorit> n2diy: security of a system is 99.9% dependant on the applications/services running on it and on the user behind the keyboard
[12:04] <MindSpark> ActionParsnip1, yes, but I meant listing ALL packages that are held
[12:04] <Cherepok> talk with me)
[12:04] <ActionParsnip1> MindSpark: well oncewe know what that ONE looks like we can find the rest can't we
[12:04] <ActionParsnip1> !ask | Cherepok
[12:04] <n2diy> Favorit: with chkrootkit, and rkhunter installed, from a local source, with a good sig.
[12:04] <quibbler> !ask|Cherepok:
[12:05] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy, do "netstat -anp" as root - it won't get p0wned right from the get-go
[12:05] <Geek`N`Proud> you update it
[12:05] <ActionParsnip1> MindSpark: so if the 2 first chars are 'hh' (for example) we can run: dpkg -l | grep ^ll
[12:05] <Geek`N`Proud> then add a firewall if you're paranoid
[12:05] <ActionParsnip1> MindSpark: and all the rest will be listed
[12:05] <p1oooop> ActionParsnip1: guess what
[12:05] <Favorit> n2diy: having tools that allow you detect that you already were comprimised is not security :)
[12:05] <Geek`N`Proud> (there's one built-in with the GNU/Linux kernel called IPTables)
[12:05] <ActionParsnip1> p1oooop: snot?
[12:05] <p1oooop> ActionParsnip1: I got persistent to work
[12:05] <Favorit> n2diy: and local source of packages is no guarantee of security, since the packages are developed by other people and can contain holes of a size of london bridge
[12:05] <ActionParsnip1> p1oooop: persistant what?
[12:05] <MindSpark> ActionParsnip1, got it ! thanks again :)
[12:06] <ActionParsnip1> MindSpark: np man
[12:06] <p1oooop> ActionParsnip1: turns out I needed to have the drive as home-rw
[12:06] <Geek`N`Proud> you can install SELinux with reference policy and prevent certain uses of mprotect() (stack as write+execute)
[12:06] <Favorit> n2diy: I think your solution would be to find you peace with your level of security, and don't exaggerate on it too much :)
[12:06] <ActionParsnip1> p1oooop: funky stuff
[12:06] <p1oooop> ActionParsnip1: presistent mode
[12:06] <n2diy> Geek'N' Proud, I'll have to check that out.
[12:06] <GenDh_is> alo
[12:06] <ActionParsnip1> p1oooop: oh like usb you mean?
[12:06] <p1oooop> ActionParsnip1: yes, it is funky...
[12:06] <Favorit> n2diy: then again, you have grsec, selinux, rbac, whatnot if you wanna tie it up more
[12:06] <p1oooop> ActionParsnip1: yup..
[12:06] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy, also, you can make policies for AppArmor with ease.. that is included with Ubuntu
[12:06] <Geek`N`Proud> CUPS is protected by default
[12:07] <n2diy> Favorit: Yes, that is why the new box is isolateted, I know it is still sterile.
[12:07] <p1oooop> ActionParsnip1: I can;t mount the drive but it blinks whileI work...
[12:07] <p1oooop> ActionParsnip1: which is a good sign its working
[12:07] <Favorit> n2diy: that's paranoia :)  which is easily fixable while having box on the net
[12:07] <ActionParsnip1> p1oooop: haha thats gotta get annoying. I hope you used ext2
[12:07] <Favorit> n2diy: allow outgoing connections, block ALL incoming
[12:07] <Favorit> n2diy: problem solved :)
[12:07] <p1oooop> ActionParsnip1: I believe I did
[12:07] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy, /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon stop <- you are now 100% immune to any inbound :P
[12:07] <ActionParsnip1> p1oooop: good as the journal gets hammered
[12:08] <Geek`N`Proud> unless the kernel has a flaw.. but then.. well
[12:08] <ActionParsnip1> p1oooop: compared to the rest of the data
[12:08] <p1oooop> ActionParsnip1: Imma check
[12:08] <Favorit> although, what I always say - if you don't have paranoia it doesn't mean you're not being followed.
[12:09] <p1oooop> ActionParsnip1: yup... ex2
[12:09] <ActionParsnip1> p1oooop: good lad
[12:09] <p1oooop> it's mounted but not mounted at the same time
[12:09] <p1oooop> ActionParsnip1: what a paradox :)
[12:09] <D_likescookies> gmorning.
[12:09] <p1oooop> hey
[12:10] <ActionParsnip1> afternoon D_likescookies
[12:10] <Favorit> grrr, advanced networking diagram in visia without loadbalancer stencil... rrraaargh
[12:10] <n2diy> Favorit:  Geek 'N' Proud, ok, let me rephrase the question? If I wanted to setup a Ubuntu honeypot, how would I do it?
[12:10] <Favorit> who knows a good diagramming application for ubuntu? :)
[12:10] <grobda24> My panels will not show after nautilus locked up and I had to forcibly exit. Will reinstalling panel restore them with my settings ?
[12:10] <ActionParsnip1> !info dia
[12:10] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy, install one of many apps designed for honeypotting
[12:11]  * grobda24 has searched the wiki and google.
[12:11] <Favorit> yeah, dia...
[12:11] <ActionParsnip1> Favorit: kolourpaint :D
[12:11] <p1oooop> anyone know a good AVR programming app for ubuntu?
[12:11] <Favorit> ActionParsnip1: euh ;) wanna draw my diagram for me? 300+ servers to depict :P
[12:11] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy, it's not that great of an idea though... Ubuntu when installed by default has only one service which can be contacted by the outside world... Avahi-Daemon
[12:11] <Anakin> I installed NVIDIA drivers in kubuntu 9.04 alfa 4 using the adept manager and after I restarted nothing happened.... if I edit xorg.conf manually the whole PC crashes when starting...
[12:11] <Geek`N`Proud> and that ignores outside packets
[12:11] <p1oooop> that uses the kanda interface
[12:11] <ActionParsnip1> Favorit: just use clouds dude
[12:12] <Favorit> ActionParsnip1: I wish i could, i wish i could :P
[12:12] <p1oooop> Favorit: use open office draw
[12:12] <ActionParsnip1> Favorit: or use clouds then define each further in a seperate document
[12:12] <Geek`N`Proud> Anakin, try using the NVIDIA Installer.. plus it's Alpha.. what would you expect
[12:12] <p1oooop> Favorit: it's an OK piece for diagrams
[12:12] <Favorit> ploom: for network diagrams?
[12:12] <Anakin> Geek`N`Proud: I also installed Debian Lenny this morning and I got the same problem :)
[12:13] <p1oooop> Favorit: oh... LOL
[12:13] <DeannaT2> grobda24, i go with strg+alt+backspack back to the start, wehn my panel is away, but there is an other way to get it back
[12:13] <p1oooop> Favorit: BTW, it's a 1
[12:13] <n2diy> Geek 'N' Proud what about shared memory, root ssh logins, and unrestricted su access? I've locked those down. Can't say I know what they are, but they are locked down now.
[12:13] <Geek`N`Proud> Anakin, use NVIDIA's latest drivers
[12:13] <Geek`N`Proud> LOL
[12:13] <n2diy> ++
[12:13] <Geek`N`Proud> SSH doesn't run by default
[12:13] <Anakin> Geek`N`Proud: will do that 10x
[12:14] <Geek`N`Proud> unrestricted su access?
[12:14] <p1oooop> busy today
[12:14] <Geek`N`Proud> nope.. root is disabled by default
[12:14] <ActionParsnip1> !root
[12:14] <D_likescookies> yea. quite a bit.
[12:14] <Geek`N`Proud> sudo allows you to elevate to root if you need to
[12:14] <p1oooop> not as busy as AC chat but likewise
[12:14] <D_likescookies> AC?
[12:14] <miguel> Hi
[12:14] <grobda24> DeannaT2, strg ?
[12:14] <p1oooop> a website
[12:15] <DeannaT2> ctrl. sry
[12:15] <D_likescookies> linky?
[12:15] <ActionParsnip1> AC are an awesome band
[12:15] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy, you are probably looking at ancient stuff there... Ubuntu doesn't run server processes (with exception to CUPS) on a desktop install
[12:15] <Guest28598> Is there anyway to force xrandr to use 1280x800 on LVDS and VGA displays? It used to work on ubuntu 8.04 but it is not working on 8.10
[12:15] <p1oooop> aquariacentral.com
[12:15] <ikonia> m1dn1ght: what about it ?
[12:15] <p1oooop> not a tech website... it's for fish... LOL
[12:15] <ActionParsnip1> Guest28598: add the resolution to xorg.conf
[12:15] <ikonia> p1oooop: why are you posting that here ?
[12:15] <D_likescookies> lol
[12:16] <p1oooop> ikonia: I was asked to
[12:16] <ActionParsnip1> oh boy
[12:16] <D_likescookies> I asked.
[12:16] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy, finally shared memory... shared memory is limited to the user the apps are running as
[12:16] <ActionParsnip1> ask him to format his pc
[12:16] <ActionParsnip1> ;)
[12:16] <ikonia> gents please take the offtopic stuff to #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:16] <D_likescookies> wasn't expecting a fish site tho.
[12:16] <p1oooop> lol
[12:16] <p1oooop> sure action sure
[12:16] <Geek`N`Proud> n2diy, normal user cannot write to other user's shared memory
[12:16]  * Netcowboy is away: [ Probably not there , leave your messages ]
[12:16] <ikonia> !away > Netcowboy
[12:16] <p1oooop> I don't even have a hdd
[12:16] <ikonia> !give ikonia a test
[12:16]  * cosmo__ gives ikonia :ikonia!n=mattd@unaffiliated/ikonia PRIVMSG #ubuntu :+!give ikonia a test.
[12:16] <D_likescookies> smart move.
[12:17] <mblanch> I tried to force 1280x800 on x.org conf but it didn't obbey it
[12:17] <p1oooop> how the hack am I suppose to format it?
[12:17] <illumin8> Hello, in ubuntu 8.10 i can use gparted to set labels for partitions on a drive, is there a way to do that in 8.04?
[12:17] <Geek`N`Proud> and the only corner-cases are NVIDIA drivers and VMWare Workstation which use SYSVSHM
[12:17] <p1oooop> LOL
[12:17] <ikonia> p1oooop: please stop
[12:17] <p1oooop> ikonia: K...
[12:17] <Geek`N`Proud> but those are only exploitable once you've already been owned anyway :P
[12:17] <ActionParsnip1> !label |illumin8
[12:17] <Geek`N`Proud> so you're secure-by-default from all remote exploitation pretty much
[12:18] <illumin8> ActionParsnip1, Thanks yet again :)
[12:18] <rww> !enter > Geek`N`Proud
[12:18] <rww> !who > Geek`N`Proud
[12:18] <giaco_> how can I synchronize a local directory  and a remote ftp folder? (without ssh)
[12:18] <Geek`N`Proud> sorry rww: it's been a while >.>
[12:18] <creative83> Why is apt looking for feisty-backports/main/debian-installer even it's not in the sources.list? This causes do-release-upgrade to fail...
[12:18] <ActionParsnip1> giaco_: you could mount the ftp location as a local folder
[12:18] <Geek`N`Proud> (since breezy badger.. a while!)
[12:18] <homebrewcider> hey there, I'm running Xubuntu, I have a Canon MP610 printer/scanner, printer working okay, scanner not being recognized, sane is installed, don't know what to do next
[12:18] <ActionParsnip1> creative83: run: sudo apt-get update
[12:19] <p1oooop> giaco_: you can use the old copy and paste :D
[12:19] <ActionParsnip1> homebrewcider: canon have drivers for it on their website
[12:19] <giaco_> p1oooop, funny :-D
[12:19] <creative83> ActionParsnip1: Did that. It's looking for feisty-backports/main/debian-installer while updateing
[12:19] <rww> creative83: if apt-get update doesn't help, check that you don't have anything in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[12:19] <p1oooop> giaco_: thanks...
[12:19] <homebrewcider> they're installed but don't do sh**
[12:19] <ikonia> homebrewcider: if you can't use language without stars - don't use it
[12:19] <creative83> rww: There we go ;) Thx
[12:20] <p1oooop> giaco_: I think there may be a piece of software for that
[12:20] <simple|eeepc> sigh
[12:20] <ikonia> giaco_: would something like rsync work ?
[12:20] <xh> hi
[12:20] <simple|eeepc> i hate these really really really stupidly wierd errors
[12:20] <homebrewcider> the drivers are installed but don't seem to do anything
[12:21] <solexious> Ive installed delugefrom a .deb, but now the new version only comes as source. I have installed from source before but not sure what if any thing different to do when upgrading from a .deb install to a source install
[12:21] <ActionParsnip1> homebrewcider: then read the guide on how to istall, and please direct your speech so names highlight
[12:21] <simple|eeepc> i'm getting squashFS errors and drive io errors and random hangups
[12:21] <simple|eeepc> its deciding to just randomly fail
[12:21] <ikonia> solexious: the whole process is totally different
[12:21] <mblanch> Is there anyway to force xrandr to use 1280x800 on LVDS and VGA displays? It is displaying 1024x768 on both displays. It used to work on ubuntu 8.04 but it is not working on 8.10
[12:21] <giaco_> ikonia, as far as I've read rsync handles local to ssh or local to rsync synchronization, and I have just ftp
[12:21] <homebrewcider> "and please direct your speech so names highlight" what does that mean?
[12:22] <p1oooop> simple|eeepc: hmm...
[12:22] <Geek`N`Proud> homebrewcider: to type the nickname before the message :)
[12:22] <rww> solexious: there will probably be a deb on the PPA at https://launchpad.net/~deluge-team/+archive/ppa in a few days
[12:22] <ikonia> giaco_: cron job then
[12:22] <Geek`N`Proud> homebrewcider, like this :D
[12:22] <quibbler> !nick
[12:22] <solexious> rww, yes, just hoping toinstall sooner
[12:23] <grobda24> Hello again. I tried reinstalling gnome-panel ... but I still have no panels ! HELP ! How do I restore the panels ?
[12:24] <ActionParsnip1> homebrewcider: see how i write your name at the start of each line
[12:24] <illumin8> When installing Linux on a system which is better to use for speed, ext2 or ext3?
[12:24] <quibbler> grobda24:  after reinstall did you logout and in?
[12:24] <rww> solexious: 1.1.3 only came out 2 or 3 days ago. If you wait a couple of days for the PPA, you'll save yourself the hassle of having to install it from source, and the potential problems and conflicts.
[12:24] <p1oooop> giaco_: coarse you can map a it as a network drive on a windows machine
[12:24] <ActionParsnip1> homebrewcider: and see how my name highlights in your client, thats not anaccident
[12:24] <bdenning> illumin8: ext2 is faster but less robust
[12:24] <rww> illumin8: they'll both be about the same speed. only difference between ext2 and ext3 is that ext3 is journaled.
[12:24] <creative83> rww: Arrgh. do-release update always uncomments the line I'm commenting in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/prerequists-sources.list
[12:24] <bdenning> illumin8: I would advise ext3 if you care about your data
[12:24] <p1oooop> giaco_: then maybe rsync would work
[12:24] <solexious> rww, was yesterday, just a bit impatient
[12:24] <illumin8> ext3 it is :)
[12:25] <illumin8> bdenning, Thanks :)
[12:25] <DeannaT2> grobda24, gnome or xfce?
[12:25] <illumin8> rww, thanks
[12:25] <rww> solexious: apparently. Anyway, if you decide to waste your time compiling from source, remove the deluge package completely first.
[12:25] <giaco_> p1oooop, after that, I should find a program that traces the differences between files, like rsync. Yes, that could work... let me see
[12:25] <solexious> rww, thank you
[12:26] <p1oooop> giaco_: maybe
[12:26] <p1oooop> giaco_: I'm not entirely positive
[12:26] <rww> creative83: that's odd. To be honest, I'd recommend just removing any lines that aren't for official Ubuntu repositories (or copy-paste them to a file somewhere and move them back later). The upgrader gets unhappy if it sees them, even if they're commented.
[12:26] <grobda24> DeannaT2, gnome
[12:27] <creative83> rww: I'll try this...
[12:27] <DeannaT2> grobda24, you can try in terminal gnome-panel, then you get a new one, then log out, with luck you have it with next start
[12:27] <illumin8> Earlier i had a problem with fedora 10 overwriting my default grub menu, some of the people online at that time didnt know how to get grub to boot it. This line will allow Fedoras boot loader to boot if placed in grub. configfile (hd0,7)/boot/grub/grub.conf
[12:28] <creative83> rww: No chance. It's rewriting the file...
[12:28] <n2diy> Sorry, Firefox and X-chat-Gnome bailed on me. So is this page full of BS? This is what I'm trying to do: http://www.itsecurity.com/features/ubuntu-secure-install-resource/
[12:28] <p1oooop> giaco_: you have to go to add network place wizard on windows in order to do that
[12:28] <illumin8> Where (hdx,x) are determined by the user.
[12:28] <giaco_> p1oooop, but I've never talked about windows
[12:29] <p1oooop> LOL, really?
[12:29] <p1oooop> giaco_: ok.... windows DOES kindasuck alot
[12:29] <D_likescookies> kinda?
[12:29] <D_likescookies> haaaa.
[12:29] <giaco_> p1oooop, really, why should I ask in #ubuntu then?
[12:29] <D_likescookies> better. lol
[12:29] <CK-TECH> how to start/stop/restart ssh server
[12:29] <creative83> rww: Trying to hack it. Theres a file in the temporary directory of do-release-upgrade which contains the wrong repo...
[12:29] <ActionParsnip1> p1oooop: its got advantages, like awesome driver support
[12:29] <Geek`N`Proud> Windows is going backwards >.>
[12:29] <p1oooop> giaco_: LOL...
[12:30] <ActionParsnip1> CK-TECH: sudo /etc/init.d/sshd restart
[12:30] <Geek`N`Proud> CK-TECH, /etc/init.d/sshd restart
[12:30] <p1oooop> ActionParsnip1: I know... great driver support
[12:30] <grobda24> DeannaT2, YES ! <hugs> ... now I log out ?
[12:30] <Andre_H> Hi, is it possible to get jaunty-kernel running in intrepid?
[12:30] <giaco_> ok ok, but we're not talking about why my grandfather should use windows or not, we're talking about remote ftp
[12:30] <DeannaT2> yes,
[12:30] <p1oooop> giaco_: LOL
[12:30] <Geek`N`Proud> Andre_H, yes it is: get jaunty's kernel-source package
[12:30] <creative83> rww: Yeah. It's working now. Just had to edit that file and run ./gutsy instead of do-release-upgrade
[12:30] <Geek`N`Proud> you can use apt-pinning to keep it up to date
[12:30] <DeannaT2> grobda24, otherwise i think paneel is away when you close terminal
[12:31] <Weeltin> Hello.. Q: anyone here using cacti??
[12:31] <ActionParsnip1> !jaunty | Andre_H
[12:31] <p1oooop> giaco_: you can try connecting VIA connect to server
[12:31] <ActionParsnip1> !info cacti
[12:31] <Andre_H> Geek`N`Proud: then just compile source-pack?
[12:31] <Andre_H> ActionParsnip1: thx
[12:31] <p1oooop> giaco_: IDK how to sync from there
[12:32] <Mozillero> hi all
[12:33] <Geek`N`Proud> Andre_H, yush! :)
[12:33] <grobda24> DeannaT2, ok, trying restart ... at least I know I can start in terminal now.
[12:33] <DeannaT2> grobda24, ok good luck
[12:34] <illumin8> ActionParsnip1, Being rather new to linux i find myself lost alot in the linux versions of commands that im accustomed to in Windows. I just wanted to inform you that I really appreciate your help over the past few days.
[12:34] <Weeltin> im in need of help.. need to update rrdtool v1.2.19) to atleast v1.2.30
[12:35] <dukey> I have some problem with the adobe flashplayer 10 under ubuntu 8.10 64bit, the fullscreen mode doesn't work
[12:35] <Geek`N`Proud> Weeltin, you can either make your own package or nab one from +1 if there is one available
[12:35] <CK-TECH> why i cant open file over SSH but i can view ?
[12:36] <Geek`N`Proud> dukey, are you using 32-bit flashplayer or the 64-bit alpha flashplayer?
[12:36] <ActionParsnip1> illumin8: np man, who knows you could help me one day, it's what makes the world go round
[12:36] <Geek`N`Proud> (32-bit is the one Ubuntu uses by default)
[12:36] <dukey> Geek`N`Proud: I tried both.
[12:36] <Geek`N`Proud> ah hmmm
[12:36] <ActionParsnip1> illumin8: you can make aliases of commands if you really want but moving to a system without will blow yourr mind
[12:36] <n2diy> OK-TEO, no write permission?
[12:36] <Geek`N`Proud> dukey, that's something Adobe will need to answer I suspect
[12:37] <dukey> hm
[12:37] <dukey> yea.
[12:37] <Geek`N`Proud> welcome to the hell of proprietary software
[12:37] <CK-TECH> n2diy, u talk to me ? u mean chmod ?
[12:37] <syscall> wowo
[12:37] <dukey> I also tried gnash and swfdec, but they dont work either
[12:37] <Weeltin> Geek`N`Proud > problem.. i a total n00b, and have no idear how to make my own package and install it over the old
[12:37] <p1oooop> Geek`N`Proud: LOL
[12:37] <dukey> gnash dont play and swfdec freezes
[12:37] <n2diy> OK-TEO, yes, maybe chmod too?
[12:37] <Geek`N`Proud> dukey, yeah the free alternatives blow at the moment too
[12:38] <CK-TECH> n2diy, i dotn know how to chmod command
[12:38] <p1oooop> Geek`N`Proud: agreeable
[12:38] <Geek`N`Proud> CK-TECH, chmod 666 <-- everyone gets write permissions but not execute permissions
[12:39] <n2diy> CK-TECH: sorry, thought the C was an O. Sounds like a permission, or, as you suggest, ownership issue.
[12:39] <Geek`N`Proud> Weeltin, in that case you could manually install a newer version  (./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install)
[12:39] <Weeltin> Geek`N`Proud, thanks.. will try..
[12:40] <grobda24> DeannaT2, yeah, thanks ... panel started :)
[12:40] <Geek`N`Proud> Weeltin, and you're not a n00b if you can compile software ;-p
[12:40] <DeannaT2> grobda24, fine :-)
[12:40] <ttyX> can someone tall me which gstreamer plugin set do i need to play wma files in exaile?
[12:41] <Geek`N`Proud> ttyX, you need Win32 Codecs I think
[12:41] <ttyX> I have it already and mplayer plays fine
[12:41] <kikokos> hi
[12:41] <illumin8> ttyX, i think wma files play in VLC player too
[12:41] <mhiku> how can i know the existing ./configure parameters of a certain package
[12:41] <ttyX> but i want exaile to play it
[12:41] <Geek`N`Proud> ttyX, I don't think there's a gstreamer wrapper for WMA
[12:41] <hbekel> mhiku: ./configure --help
[12:41] <mhiku> that installed by apt-get?
[12:41] <mhiku> i mean
[12:42] <Geek`N`Proud> since the use of Win32 Codecs by wrapper is questionable in terms of legality
[12:42] <Weeltin> Geek`N`Proud, i know.. "only" the second time im using linux (ubuntu) and this time it is to build a NOC
[12:42] <ttyX> ok what pack is needed or mp3 then

[12:43] <mhiku> how do i know the ./configure parameters apt-get did to install a software?
[12:43] <ttyX> I wish I could install them on debian :P
[12:43] <ActionParsnip1> maxagaz: http://pastebin.com/d5f259301

[12:43] <n2diy> hiku, look at the config file?
[12:44] <mhiku> what is the config file
[12:44] <maxagaz> ActionParsnip1, sync350 : thanks a lot :)
[12:44] <mhiku> where can i find it
[12:45] <n2diy> hiku, probably "programname.config, or .configrc, or something similiar.
[12:45] <tich> i just installed vlc but it doesn't seem to blend with the rest of my desktop.  is there something i need to do to get it to use the desktop theme?
[12:46] <mhiku> where can i find that programname.config your telling, what folder, for example i installed php using apt-get, where can i find the config file to read it
[12:46] <Sarkie> Hi guys, I have this issue, do i need a patch as well or has it been applied? https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14611
[12:46] <n2diy> hiku, locate php.config?
[12:47] <p1oooop> isn't it php.ini?
[12:47] <mhiku> nothing happens
[12:47] <ikonia> n2diy: php.ini
[12:47] <hay_ig2000> hi all, i want a visual keyboard program
[12:47] <kikokos> so :) anybody can look at this http://wklej.org/id/54315/ please
[12:47] <mhiku> no its not php.ini
[12:47] <p1oooop> hay_ig2000: did you try accessibility
[12:47] <mhiku> i need to know the parameters apt-get is using to install programs
[12:48] <ikonia> Sarkie: if you have that exact problem, then clearly the patch has not been applied or you would not have that problem
[12:48] <p1oooop> hay_ig2000: nvmd
[12:48] <ikonia> sphenxes: I suspect you don't have that actual problem, rather a miss-configuration on xorg
[12:48] <CK-TECH> i cant copy network file ? anyone help?
[12:48] <ikonia> CK-TECH: can you explain in more detail please
[12:49] <CK-TECH> ikonia, i using SSH but i can connect to the pc and view but i cant copy the file
[12:49] <mhiku> where can i find php.config
[12:49] <ttyX> can someone name the gui frontend that ubuntu uses for network configuration
[12:49] <hbekel> mhiku: look at debain/rules in the source pkg, it contains the configure options
[12:49] <ikonia> CK-TECH: what is the exact command your using
[12:49] <ikonia> mhiku: /etc/php.ini
[12:49] <p1oooop> laters guys
[12:49] <ikonia> Miouge: /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
[12:49] <p1oooop> I need to go to sleep
[12:49] <ikonia> mhiku: /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
[12:50] <hay_ig2000> p1oooop, how to get nvmd?
[12:50] <CK-TECH> ikonia, at menu  , places > connect to server > then i choose ssh and director
[12:50] <CK-TECH> directory
[12:50] <ikonia> CK-TECH: so your trying to map a network directory over ssh
[12:50] <p1oooop> hay_ig2000: NVMD? never mind
[12:50] <ActionParsnip1> CK-TECH: could use filezilla
[12:50] <Miouge> ikonia, waahoo how did you get that i was working on this file ? :p
[12:50] <mhiku> i dont need php.ini, i was telling how did apt-get do the parameters of compiling
[12:50] <p1oooop> hay_ig2000: LOL, I forgot this is the ubuntu chatroom... LOL
[12:50] <ikonia> CK-TECH: I suspect you don't have permissions to connect to that server / permissions to access the directory
[12:50] <ikonia> Miouge: sorry
[12:50] <mhiku> i need to know those parameters
[12:50] <hay_ig2000> i thought it is a program :)
[12:51] <ikonia> mhiku: don't compile your own
[12:51] <ikonia> mhiku: use the version in the repos
[12:51] <p1oooop> hay_ig2000: maybe a program, not very likely tho
[12:51] <mhiku> i need to install php 6
[12:51] <CK-TECH> ikonia, how to set the permission ?
[12:51] <mhiku> and i need to know the parameters
[12:51] <ikonia> mhiku: then you don't have the parmaeters for php5
[12:51] <p1oooop> hay_ig2000: if it was, it would be a very hard to find program
[12:51] <ikonia> mhiku: you want php6 - and no-one "needs" php6 yet I'm not aware of an application that requires it
[12:51] <p1oooop> hay_ig2000: if you know what I mean
[12:51] <mhiku> il experiment on it
[12:52] <ikonia> !offtopic
[12:52] <hay_ig2000> i heard a program named viki..
[12:52] <mhiku> will i go there?
[12:52] <p1oooop> lemme try that
[12:52] <ikonia> mhiku: pardon ?
[12:52] <mhiku> i just want to know how apt-get config parameters are
[12:52] <marciorl> someone has knowledge of cluster?
[12:52] <mhiku> then i shut up
[12:52] <ikonia> mhiku: that's not how it works
[12:52] <ActionParsnip1> mhiku: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=758512

[12:53] <p1oooop> ubottu: hi

[12:53] <mhiku> i will compile using make

[12:54] <ikonia> mhiku: there is no php6 stable package
[12:54] <ActionParsnip1> mhiku: you can download a deb and extract it to see its files
[12:54] <mhiku> i dont care, i just want to learn
[12:54] <ikonia> mhiku: you can only use that if the package is pre-built for y ou

[13:06] <abz> owh
[13:07] <Dr_willis> int256,  and keep the data?
[13:07] <int256> Dr_willis: ya
[13:07] <D_likescookies> Dr_Willis no amd64 version of httptrack but ty anyway.
[13:07] <ActionParsnip1> int256: format it AFTER you copy all the data to another partition
[13:07] <benjaminweber> server.errorlog            = "/var/log/lighttpd/error.log", the thing is that I'm working with server.chroot but that should not affect my problem?
[13:07] <ActionParsnip1> int256: you'll need something like ntfstools
[13:07] <ActionParsnip1> !info ntfstools
[13:07] <engemec> hi! Good morning!
[13:08] <int256> ActionParsnip1: no way to format without data loss
[13:08] <ActionParsnip1> int256: no as formatting will wipe the data as the structure will change
[13:08] <Dr_willis> int256,  good luck with that. I dont think its possible. partition magic MIGHT be able to do that..  but even then.. I would backup the data befor trying it.
[13:09] <int256> does a linux version of partition magic is available
[13:09] <engemec> Well...., i using 8.04 and i would like to update to 8.10. is it recommended?
[13:09] <Dr_willis> D_likescookies,  I just installed the 64bit version here....

[13:10] <int256> ActionParsnip1: ok
[13:11] <tux> the error is : file_.asx could not be opened because there is no associated helper application etc..
[13:11] <Fiftyone> will the next ubuntu release use the newly released lenny debian? Also what are the advantages of ubuntu over debian if i wanted to try it out
[13:11] <ActionParsnip1> tux: open it with vlc
[13:11] <Fiftyone> Of debian ovwr ubuntu i mean
[13:12] <ActionParsnip1> !debian
[13:12] <int256> ActionParsnip1: how to install gparted
[13:12] <ActionParsnip1> int256: guess
[13:12] <n2diy> Fiftyone: the big advantage of Ubuntu over Debian is the 1400 user here, in this support channel.
[13:12] <elvirolo> the same problem would apply to intrepid : how do i install ubuntu from an external hd ?
[13:12] <Fiftyone> I know what debian is
[13:12] <tux> ActionParsnip1, i did if you read my first sentence above
[13:12] <illumin8> int256, sudo apt-get install gparted

[13:12] <Pici> Fiftyone: Please read the entire factoid from ubottu

[13:12] <D_likescookies> Dr_Willis didn't see it. O-o ty again.
[13:13] <steven> Most of my directories in '/' have a "Stale NFS file handle", though I don't use NFS, is there any way to fix this?
[13:13] <illumin8> fair enough :)
[13:13] <ActionParsnip1> Fiftyone: if you read the factoid there is a link on the differences
[13:13] <Lutfi> hi all
[13:13] <int256> ActionParsnip1: but it does to support formating to NTFS
[13:13] <ActionParsnip1> int256: if you install a few packages it does
[13:14] <int256> ActionParsnip1: which
[13:14] <ActionParsnip1> int256: sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs
[13:14] <Fiftyone> ok i know the differencea there are many places to read about it, i want to know from people who have used both
[13:14] <n2diy> engemec: sorry, no I can't agree, I only use the LTS versions of Ubuntu, so I haven't explorered 8.10, or gnome 2.24.
[13:14] <illumin8> that was so tempting ActionParsnip1
[13:14] <Fiftyone> Thats why i asked
[13:14] <int256> ActionParsnip1: ok
[13:14] <the_holstar_> how do i set root password?

[13:16] <illumin8> Fiftyone,  I have debian 5.0 on a seperate partition, it allow you superb controll over the system and is customized based on your options installed. But ubuntu is far more user friendly and a good place to get your bearings
[13:16] <ActionParsnip1> int256: thats what we told you, you have to backup the data first, then convert, then write back
[13:16] <ActionParsnip1> Arjuna: can you ping names and ip addresses
[13:16] <int256> ok
[13:16] <Arjuna> yes
[13:17] <engemec> n2diy: Hum... this is my doubt. i like LTS versions and i had problems with releases versions, but.... i would like to test gnome 2.24 and not more. Thanks a lot. I'll continue using my 8.04 until 11.04.
[13:17] <presshere_> hi, i am searching a good network monitor, i need it to know who is communicating with my PC and their IP ... any suggestion?
[13:17] <Arjuna> dns works and routing but only for ping
[13:17] <Arjuna> i cant use apt or firefox
[13:17] <ActionParsnip1> Arjuna: can you telnet to: www.google.com 80
[13:17] <Arjuna> no
[13:17] <Arjuna> i tried allready
[13:17] <n2diy> engemec: fine business, that is my plan too.
[13:17] <illumin8> presshere, I believe wireshark would do that.
[13:17] <Arjuna> cant resolve www.google.com/80
[13:18] <ikonia> Arjuna: that's not a website
[13:18] <ActionParsnip1> Arjuna: have you configured a firewall?
[13:18] <engemec> n2diy: did you use remastersys?
[13:18] <presshere_> illumin8 thx, i will try
[13:18] <ikonia> Arjuna: www.google.com 80 - not www.google.com/80
[13:18] <ActionParsnip1> Arjuna: the port number needs a space not a /
[13:18] <n2diy> engemec: no, what is that?
[13:18] <Arjuna> i know
[13:18] <Arjuna> thats the output
[13:18] <MindSpark> did anyone get php5-ffmpeg to work from the repositories ?
[13:19] <engemec> With remastersys, you can create your recovery disk system automaticaly.
[13:19] <engemec> n2diy: With remastersys, you can create your recovery disk system automaticaly.
[13:19] <the_holstar_> $sudo passwd root would this command work?
[13:19] <ikonia> Arjuna: can you ping www.google.com
[13:19] <Arjuna> thats the output : could not resolve www.google.com
[13:19] <Arjuna> i can ping it
[13:19] <the_holstar_> to enable root`s password/
[13:19] <ActionParsnip1> Arjuna: ok so to clarify, you can ping IPs and Ping names which resolve successfully, but http traffic via firefox is no good and apt-getting is no good
[13:19] <ikonia> Arjuna: how can you ping a site you can't resolve
[13:19] <kikokos> do anybody know something about mounting samba files?
[13:19] <int256> when ever i install any software using apt-get command it says to download JDK documentation.
[13:20] <Arjuna> i can resolv only for ping
[13:20] <illumin8> the_holstar_, You should use sudo (command) instead of enableing root
[13:20] <lecta-fils> hi i've a question related NDOutils any exp here?
[13:20] <Arjuna> thats how it looks like here
[13:20] <ActionParsnip1> lecta-fils: ask away
[13:20] <the_holstar_> illumin8 can you type an example
[13:20] <lecta-fils> thanks
[13:20] <the_holstar_> i have no clue
[13:20] <ActionParsnip1> Arjuna: are you connected to a router?
[13:20] <Arjuna> yup
[13:20] <ActionParsnip1> Arjuna: can yo http to that ?
[13:20] <ActionParsnip1> *you
[13:20] <illumin8> the_holstar_, Sure, to install say Wireshark type "sudo apt-get install wireshark" in terminal minus the quotes
[13:20] <engemec> n2diy: you'll have many options. With your files, only system, system and programs..... very interesting..
[13:21] <Arjuna> ye
[13:21] <Pici> the_holstar_: Please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo it explains how to use sudo
[13:21] <kikokos> samba, do you like samba, do you want to learn more via thinking about my problem :P ?
[13:21] <ActionParsnip1> Arjuna: then your router is funny as http traffic can flow in and out of your system freely
[13:21] <illumin8> the_holstar_, Sudo means "super user do" (to the best of my knowledge) and is basicly root
[13:21] <n2diy> engemec: hmm, haven't heard of tha before. I played with mondo, that is advertised as a backup and recovery solution, but that was a couple of years ago, and it wasn't ready for prime time.. I'll have to look into remasteringsys. I just setup a test box, so Ican play with stuff like that now.
[13:21] <ActionParsnip1> illumin8: close enough
[13:22] <ActionParsnip1> the_holstar_: if you need power use sudo or for gui apps, use gksudo
[13:22] <ActionParsnip1> the_holstar_: keeping the root account disabled makes your system massively more secure
[13:22] <the_holstar_> ok
[13:22] <the_holstar_> thanks
[13:22] <the_holstar_> i am testing as a home use
[13:22] <the_holstar_> so i want to enable root
[13:22] <ActionParsnip1> the_holstar_: plus it limits the amout of apps that have root power which further protects you
[13:22] <FloodBot1> the_holstar_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:23] <the_holstar_> hmm
[13:23] <Arjuna> ActionParsnip1, funny is that on my debian box witch is connected to lan1 everything works great, on lan2 with ubuntu 8.04 i have this problem
[13:23] <DIFH-iceroot> ActionParsnip1: sorry for this but disable root with ssh is secure enough
[13:23] <the_holstar_> I think i am not flooding :S
[13:23] <hateball> the_holstar_: if you *need* to be root, you can use "sudo -i"
[13:23] <ActionParsnip1> the_holstar_: as a standard user you dont need root access to browse and chat, if the account is sat accessible it makes you more vulnerable
[13:23] <Arjuna> ActionParsnip1, router is firmwared with OpenWrt
[13:23] <Ubeginner> Hello  i have a serious problem concerning audio
[13:23] <the_holstar_> brb
[13:24] <ActionParsnip1> Arjuna: whatever your system's gateway is is not giving the ubuntu system its requested html conent but will allow pings
[13:24] <Ubeginner> My hardware ok tested o vista onboard
[13:24] <Ubeginner> Recnetly tried to fix it and now no sound comes...
[13:24] <ActionParsnip1> Arjuna: maybe if you use a public proxy (just to test) it may work
[13:24] <engemec> n2diy: remastersys = this is the correct name! One more time...... Thanks a lot. I'll follow your tip.
[13:24] <Arjuna> ActionParsnip1, will tru
[13:24] <Arjuna> ActionParsnip1, will try
[13:25] <n2diy> engemec: roger that, ty, gl.
[13:25] <ActionParsnip1> Arjuna: the fact you can http to an internal device means your browser is ok and traffic can get in and out of your system so is not an ubuntu issue
[13:25] <Ubeginner> anyone help me to manage this?
[13:25] <n2diy> ActionParsnip1: , Arjuna, a DHCP issue?
[13:26] <ErikWestrup> I can't use sudo: send-mail: fatal: open /etc/postfix/main.cf: No such file or directory
[13:26] <Arjuna> n2diy, i had some problems with avahi thing and so
[13:26] <Favorit> ErikWestrup: your postfix installation seems to be screwed
[13:26] <ErikWestrup> Whys is this? does sudo use postfix?
[13:26] <Arjuna> Arjuna, majbe if i turn off ipv6 , but dont know how to do it
[13:26] <Ubeginner> Anyone? :)
[13:26] <ErikWestrup> I can't fix it, since it won't let me sudo :S
[13:27] <illumin8> Ubeginner, Is your sound card intigrated or dedicated?
[13:27] <Ubeginner> illumin8: onboard
[13:27] <Ubeginner> integrated
[13:27] <illumin8> Ubeginner, And you say it worked fine in microsoft?
[13:27] <rrohde> Question: I am using LyX 1.6.1 on Jaunty right now, and recently the highlighting text in LyX stopped working. Each time I hightlight and let go the left mouse button the highlight goes away.. any ideas on what to do?
[13:27] <Ubeginner> illumin8: yes definetely
[13:28] <ActionParsnip1> Ubeginner: if you run lspci in terminal, what is the single line that identifies the card?
[13:28] <illumin8> !info lspci
[13:28] <illumin8> hmm?
[13:28] <Favorit> huh
[13:29] <ActionParsnip1> illumin8: its a terminal command, try it
[13:29] <Ubeginner> remind where to copy it for a look?
[13:29] <illumin8> got alot more than one line of feedback
[13:29] <Favorit> !pastebin
[13:29] <ActionParsnip1> illumin8: true but one line will identify your soundcard
[13:30] <ActionParsnip1> illumin8: you can grep it too
[13:30] <illumin8> Ah yes. i see that. good to know command :)
[13:30] <ActionParsnip1> illumin8: lspci | grep -i vga
[13:30] <Ubeginner> http://paste.ubuntu.com/119666/
[13:30] <ActionParsnip1> illumin8: its great when someones h/w doesnt work, tells you what it is
[13:30] <Favorit> actually, lspci -vvv is more effective in this case
[13:30] <illumin8> Ubeginner, use pastebin and post the link here so we can see what the terminal spit out.
[13:30] <Favorit> gives a bit mor einfo
[13:30] <Ubeginner> illumin8: i done that already :)
[13:31] <n2diy> ActionParsnip1: Ubeginner, lshw is handy too.
[13:31] <illumin8> AC 97 audo controller
[13:31] <Favorit> nvidia audio was supported iirc, but I think you need nvidia native drivers yet again
[13:31] <Ubeginner> illumin8: so whats next? :)
[13:31] <illumin8> Yep i had to install them on my system too
[13:32] <illumin8> They probably know a faster way but i believe the method is to enable nvidia support drivers by running your add remove software tool under applications
[13:32] <A4Tech> hi all!
[13:32] <WillSeeds> hi
[13:32] <A4Tech> people, i'm rum tasksel
[13:32] <illumin8> you would then get a popup that asks if you want to enable nvidia driver support (choose the recommended package)
[13:32] <Favorit> nvidia/ati stories suck. why don't they just package their drivers into some repo's... every 2nd person who comes in here has problems installing those drivers
[13:32] <Favorit> A4Tech: congratulations! :)
[13:32] <illumin8> They update so fast is probably why
[13:32] <A4Tech> hehe
[13:33] <Favorit> illumin8: well, not like you need to re-write packaging scripts or whatnot every time you update. just build those automagically and let people apt-get those ;)
[13:33] <Ubeginner> illumin8:it doesn give such
[13:33] <ActionParsnip1> Ubeginner: according to: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=961453  apt-get install --reinstall pulseaudio
[13:33] <A4Tech> Favorit: i can't install ... Audio creation and editing suite
[13:33] <jadams> anyone familiar with stunnel?
[13:33] <A4Tech> Favorit and  2D/3D creation and editing suite
[13:33] <illumin8> reinstalling pulseaudio installs nvidia?
[13:34] <ActionParsnip1> illumin8: it makes the sound work apparently
[13:34] <A4Tech> Favorit well conceived or what?
[13:34] <Favorit> jadams: pretty familiar, not an expert tho. what's the prob?
[13:34] <A4Tech> ))
[13:34] <illumin8> Huh
[13:34] <Ubeginner> ActionParsnip1: ok ill try
[13:34] <Favorit> A4Tech: no clue to be honest :) I almost never saw linux graphical ;) /me - console maestro
[13:34] <Favorit> A4Tech: hence never used any multimedia apps
[13:35] <Ubeginner> and after that i guess it need to be restarted?
[13:35] <illumin8> Just going to the login screen should fix it.
[13:35] <ActionParsnip1> Ubeginner: make sure you are fully updated with: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[13:35] <illumin8> After you run the sudo command that is
[13:35] <Favorit> Ubeginner: not necessarily, drivers are modular.
[13:35] <jadams> Favorit, when I run /etc/init.d/stunnel start, then do ps ax|grep stun it doesn't show up.  There's nothing in messages, or syslog, or the stunnel logs
[13:36] <Favorit> jadams: do you have any configuration for it to start with?
[13:36] <Favorit> jadams: check /etc/default/stunnel4 - by default it's in ENABLED=0
[13:36] <grobda24> Hello. Back again. I don't know what kind of damage nautilus locking up caused, but now I can no longer mount my USB ext3 drive .... when I do my USB mouse becomes almost unusable (slow) and the log has entries about USB errors and "IRQ 17 is disabled". Anyone ?
[13:36] <illumin8> ActionParsnip1, I notice some people use ; and some use && to seperate commands in terminal, whats the diffirence
[13:36] <Favorit> jadams: that's what you need to tweak to start with
[13:36] <ActionParsnip1> jadams: enable logging for the app and read the logs when it fails
[13:37] <ActionParsnip1> illumin8: ; means "do this, then that" && means "do this then ONLY do that if this passes successfully"
[13:37] <A4Tech> Favorit but rather how do I install these applications? I want to see that there are
[13:37] <Favorit> grobda24: detach and reattach USB drive, with a bit of luck it will get a new IRQ
[13:37] <Favorit> A4Tech: do you know the name of the packages?
[13:37] <illumin8> ActionParsnip1, good to know, so its a if then command (&&)
[13:37] <lucabecchetti> nfigurazione ora se lo reinstallo non mi ricrea la cartella i files di configurazione dentro etc
[13:37] <Favorit> A4Tech: if so, just sudo apt-get install <package>
[13:37] <delisac> a
[13:38] <ActionParsnip1> illumin8: yeah just makes sure all previos steps passed ok
[13:38] <grobda24> Favorit, hmmm ... I think I tried that, not sure ... trying again.
[13:38] <A4Tech> Favorit that time and again that I do not know:)
[13:38] <delisac> hi
[13:38] <delisac> hello
[13:38] <jadams> Favorit, ActionParsnip1: http://paste.ubuntu.com/119671/
[13:38] <zero_vienna> hi to all from cold austria :)
[13:38] <Favorit> A4Tech: dunno, man, i'm sorry :)
[13:38] <delisac> i'm italian
[13:39] <UBeginner> Sorry it didnt help
[13:39] <A4Tech> eh =(
[13:39] <Favorit> jadams: well, see the last line
[13:39] <zero_vienna> i have a huge problem with my audio since the last updates
[13:39] <Favorit> !it delisac
[13:39] <Favorit> euh
[13:39] <jadams> Favorit, I don't know what that line means is the point...
[13:39] <Favorit> !it
[13:39] <delisac> what?
[13:39] <delisac> byebye
[13:39] <A4Tech> =)
[13:40] <UBeginner> i tryed to reinstall pulseaudio and it didnt work
[13:40] <Favorit> jadams: it means that you want it to run as an inetd-slave, i.e. it will only be invoked for services defined in inetd, and for that you need to configure it in a different way
[13:40] <Favorit> jadams: how to configure it would depend on what you want to achieve with it
[13:40] <Arjuna> ActionParsnip1, why would router not forward ubuntu box dont understand, maybe is dhcp issue
[13:40] <jadams> Favorit, mysql master/slave replication
[13:41] <grobda24> Favorit, yeah, that did it. I rebooted and reattached numerous times ... but it does it now ? I've had this error before. Nautilus crashes and something gets out of sync until it is reset by some mysterious process. Is this a known problem ?
[13:41] <ActionParsnip1> Arjuna: possibly, check ifconfig on ubuntu and ipconfig on windows to check ips
[13:41] <UBeginner> ActionParsnip1: you mentioned before some apt-get commands to me...if its not hard for you could you remind me again?
[13:41] <ActionParsnip1> Arjuna: maybe you have a conflicting mac address
[13:41] <Favorit> grobda24: probably irq balancing isn't working that well on your hardware. I'm not sure what the reason is exactly
[13:41] <Favorit> Arjuna: what OS is your router?
[13:41] <Arjuna> OpenWrt
[13:41] <ActionParsnip1> sudo apt-get install --reinstall pulseaudio
[13:42] <Favorit> Arjuna: and it does route other machines?
[13:42] <UBeginner> ActionParsnip1:  it didnt work out for me
[13:42] <Arjuna> yup
[13:42] <ActionParsnip1> !sound | UBeginner
[13:42] <grobda24> Favorit, IRQ balancing ? I'll look it up. It only happens after a Nautilus crash though.
[13:42] <Arjuna> never had a problem
[13:42] <elpargo> hi, which was the command to switch between resolutions in X?
[13:42] <Favorit> grobda24: well, something forces your drive on the same irq as your mouse and your USB bus width isn't fast enough to process both
[13:43] <Favorit> grobda24: (from what I heard of your story, and I wasn't following from the beginning)
[13:43] <ActionParsnip1> !resolution | elpargo
[13:43] <grobda24> Favorit, yes, that sounds about right :)
[13:43] <Favorit> Arjuna: what do you mean not forwarding btw? you have no internet at all?
[13:44] <elpargo> thanks ActionParsnip1
[13:44] <Favorit> Arjuna: can you ping the default gateway? If you look at "route -n", is your default gateway set correct, i.e. it's IP of owrt?
[13:44] <n2diy> elpargo: ctrl+alt +, and ctrl+alt -
[13:44] <afeijo> how can I use wget to download just *.png files in any folders in a http?]
[13:45] <Arjuna> Favorit, yea on ubuntu box i dont have interenet at all
[13:45] <Arjuna> Favorit, but on this debian box it works ok for past 2 yers
[13:45] <Arjuna> Favorit, yes everything looks ok
[13:45] <Arjuna> dhcp.leases on router looks ok
[13:45] <FloodBot1> Arjuna: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:45] <elpargo> n2diy: ahhh yes those where the ones.
[13:45] <illumin8> n2diy isnt that only in kde environments?
[13:45] <elpargo> umm n2diy it ain't working for me.
[13:45] <Favorit> Arjuna: euh, that sounds weird. wireless or wired?
[13:45] <Arjuna> wired
[13:46] <n2diy> illumin8: no, it works in gnome, but not as well as it used to. Worked fine in Dapper, but Hardy is a crap shoot.
[13:46] <Favorit> even weirder :)
[13:46] <arvind_khadri> !enter | Arjuna
[13:46] <UBeginner> ok i guess my alsa is working couse mplayer is playing but i cant hear anything..?
[13:46] <serwou> hello the chan
[13:46] <arvind_khadri> Arjuna, broadband ? BSNL ?
[13:47] <Favorit> If I hear salsa, I have a working ALSA! (c) urban wisdom
[13:47] <Arjuna> cable, but this does not matter i think
[13:47] <UBeginner> Favorit: help me to hear my salsa :D
[13:47] <elpargo> I'm having such a small resolution I can't even read it... I should note that I'm not running gdm/ubuntu just plain X with a custom WM
[13:47] <arvind_khadri> Arjuna, maybe you need to setup the stuff manually
[13:48] <Favorit> Arjuna: indeed, cable or not it doesn't matter. and if you try to traceroute somewhere on the net, like my favorite test host 193.0.0.193, where does it stop? at your router?
[13:48] <n2diy> alpargo, It doesn't work well now, compared to Dapper. Some browsers support it better than otheers. Epiphany has a zoom tool on its task bar.
[13:48] <NIT[L]> hi, i am having problems getting ubuntu to display in 1440x900 resolution. I have the latest 180.29 Nvidia drivers.
[13:48] <Favorit> NIT[L]: what is exactly the problem?
[13:48] <Favorit> NIT[L]: X doesn't start, or you don't see the resolution in the list?
[13:48] <KemrinH> Hey, does anyone know where in Ubuntu the Eliza chatbot keeps its script?
[13:48] <Arjuna> Favorit, no traceroute gose through router
[13:49] <NIT[L]> Favorit: I cant see 1440x900 in the list in the Nivida x server settings
[13:49] <illumin8> elpargo, http://ubuntuswitch.blogspot.com/2008/01/create-shortcuts-to-change-desktop.html
[13:49] <UBeginner> Ok Guys thank you all it work right now but is mute bug fixed already?
[13:49] <Arjuna> Favorit, i tell u, its strangest problem ever, i can ping, nslookup the internet , but cant use firefox or apt-get
[13:50] <Favorit> Arjuna: ah, so traceroute goes further than the router....
[13:50] <erUSUL> Arjuna: maybe you have an invalid http proxy defined
[13:50] <Arjuna> Favorit, i changed /network/interfaces file so i dont have eth0 or eth1 in
[13:51] <Arjuna> erUSUL, i dont use proxy
[13:51] <n2diy> Arjuna: , Favorit, a DNS issue?
[13:51] <Arjuna> n2diy, i think it has something to do with avahi and network manager
[13:51] <NIT[L]> Favorit: any suggestions as to how to get 1440x900?
[13:51] <arvind_khadri> Arjuna, can you ping google?
[13:52] <erUSUL> Arjuna: but if by mistake it is defined somewhere apt-get and firefox can fail for that reason
[13:52] <Arjuna> arvind_khadri, yes i can ping all internet machines and even nslookup them
[13:52] <n2diy> Arjuna: ok, I'm just guessing, and not really following what you folks are doing.
[13:52] <illumin8> NIT[L], your monitor supports 1440x900?
[13:52] <NIT[L]> illumin8: yes
[13:52] <arvind_khadri> Arjuna, do sudo dhclient once...and then check
[13:52] <KemrinH> Hey, does anyone know where in Ubuntu the Eliza chatbot keeps its script?
[13:52] <illumin8> NIT[L], do you have the nvidia restricted drivers enabled?
[13:53] <illumin8> NIT[L], assuming your using nvidia card that is :)
[13:53] <Arjuna> arvind_khadri, renewd but things are the same
[13:53] <NIT[L]> illumin8: I have installed 180.29 (and yes its nvidia)
[13:53] <Digi1> Hi got a question about system disk and size :)
[13:53] <jadams> Favorit, I have stunnel working on the master now (enabled=1, had no idea), but now on the slave I get You should check that you have specified the pid= in you configuration file
[13:53] <illumin8> NIT[L], it should allow selection of the new screen resolution then, is it not?
[13:53] <arvind_khadri> Arjuna, a weird issue....
[13:54] <Arjuna> arvind_khadri, totaly
[13:54] <arvind_khadri> Arjuna, did you try googling?
[13:54] <glitsj16> NIT[L]: did you try "xrandr -s 1440x900" (or just xrandr to get a list of supported resolutions from your monitor) ?
[13:54] <Arjuna> arvind_khadri, yea
[13:54] <NIT[L]> illumin8: it allows some resolutions in the nvidia x server settings, but not 1440
[13:54] <arvind_khadri> Arjuna, something came up?
[13:54] <Arjuna> arvind_khadri, nope
[13:54] <Arjuna> :D
[13:54] <arvind_khadri> Arjuna, hmm... which ubuntu?
[13:55] <Arjuna> 8,04
[13:55] <Favorit> what the hell is with my network now...
[13:55] <NIT[L]> glitsj16: Size 1440x900 not found in available modes
[13:55] <NIT[L]> my monitor is 100% 1440 x 900
[13:55] <Favorit> Arjuna: hmm
[13:55] <illumin8> NIT[L], what type of monitor do you have?
[13:56] <Arjuna> Favorit, now after dhclient i got avahi:eth1 (wireless) interface up
[13:56] <illumin8> NIT[L], and grapics card if you dont mind
[13:56] <NIT[L]> illumin8: LG 19inch 16:9
[13:56] <arvind_khadri> Arjuna, working with other versions of Ubuntu?
[13:56] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: manually add it to xorg.conf
[13:56] <NIT[L]> illumin8: geforce 8400M (notebook)
[13:56] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: how would i do that, very new to linux
[13:56] <Favorit> Arjuna: and what does apt-get say for instance?
[13:56] <Arjuna> cant resolve
[13:56] <n2diy> Arjuna: eth1 is wireless?
[13:57] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:57] <Arjuna> n2diy, ye but isnt in use
[13:57] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: ok got it open, now how do i add my resolution?
[13:57] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: if you look for resolutions and add a new one to the list (make it appear as the leftmost value) it will be ok
[13:57] <Favorit> Arjuna:Ok, this is just screwed, I can't do anything. what the hell is my datacenter doing
[13:57] <Arjuna> n2diy, it must be some avahi, network manager, roaming issue
[13:57] <n2diy> Arjuna: I thought wireless was wlanX, or something like that?
[13:58] <Arjuna> n2diy, nope can be eth1 too, it is intels 2100 card
[13:58] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: this is what my xorg.conf looks like http://paste.ubuntu.com/119677/
[13:58] <n2diy> Arjuna: what does ifconfig think it is?
[13:58] <KemrinH> Hey, does anyone know where in Ubuntu the Eliza chatbot keeps its script?
[13:58] <Arjuna> n2diy, eth1 and avahi:eth1
[14:00] <jadams> Favorit, I have stunnel running on the master server.  Doing roughly the same thing on the slave didn't get it running, I get You should check that you have specified the pid= in you configuration file but I totally have it specified
[14:01] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: How would i add 1440x900 in my xorg.conf?
[14:01] <Arjuna> every configuration i configure in network manager internet works only for pinging
[14:01] <ActionParsnip1> yo yo yo
[14:01] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: How would i add 1440x900 in my xorg.conf?
[14:01] <jadams> Favorit, nevermind, it was writing to the logs finally, easy to fix
[14:02] <NIT[L]> http://paste.ubuntu.com/119677/ my xorg.conf
[14:02] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: you arent using any vido drivers
[14:02] <Arjuna> i configured nsswitch.conf  on line hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns
[14:02] <elpargo> illumin8: awesome xrandr -s worked!
[14:02] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: did you install the nvidia stuff earlier via apt-get?
[14:02] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: I am, i installed 180.29 ;)
[14:02] <illumin8> elpargo, great, glad i could help :)
[14:02] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: ok thats cool, now run: gksudo nvidia-settings
[14:03] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: if those arent compatible you may have to install the 177 ones
[14:03] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: are you being told to run a command as root?
[14:03] <Misterwho> Hello there
[14:04] <Next1> I got an update notification in Hardy for Sudo.   Is this legit.
[14:04] <ActionParsnip1> !hi | Misterwho
[14:04] <illumin8> Next1, Yes i got one also
[14:04] <ActionParsnip1> Next1: yep got it last night
[14:04] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: then back in terminal run: sudo nvidia-xconfig
[14:04] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: it asked for a password
[14:04] <Misterwho> I'm new at this channel - having trouble making my wifi card run on the latest version of Ubuntu. It has a Prism2 chipset. Anyone can direct me to some page, howto or tutorial that can help me? Thanks
[14:04] <ActionParsnip1> yes type in your login password
[14:04] <Next1> Thanks
[14:04] <odinsbane> Hello I have been upgrading/installing some programs via source, ie using config,make,make install because they are newer versions of the programs found in the repos.  Is there a way to have apt know about them?
[14:05] <s-toned> How do I change the "mouse-resize-button" from middle  to right button (if at all possible)?
[14:05] <ActionParsnip1> Next1: sudo is a program just like any other
[14:05] <illumin8> Misterwho, what version of ubuntu exaclty 8.04 or 8.10 and 32 bit or 64 bit?
[14:05] <ActionParsnip1> !mouse | s-toned
[14:05] <Favorit> grr
[14:05] <Misterwho> illumin8: 8.10 32bit
[14:05] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: http://paste.ubuntu.com/119680/
[14:05] <dsdeiz> hi, let's say i would like to do an 'ls' then echo the files in a text file.. any ideas?
[14:06] <Misterwho> illumin8: If it can be done only with the CD it would be great - the machine is nowhere near a switch
[14:06] <arvind_khadri> dsdeiz, ls > file.txt
[14:06] <Favorit> phew
[14:06] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: don't sweat it, ok hit ctrl+alt+backspace and you should see the nvidia logo
[14:06] <Redragon> I find it interesting to note that primo pdf supports windows 98 but has no version available for linux.
[14:06] <Favorit> they are finally done with screwing up their network
[14:06] <arvind_khadri> odinsbane, you cant...
[14:06] <arvind_khadri> !latest > odinsbane
[14:06] <ActionParsnip1> Redragon: theres acroread for linux from adobe, or xpdf for linux
[14:06] <dsdeiz> cool, tnx
[14:07] <Pici> !checkinstall > odinsbane
[14:07] <Redragon> Thank you
[14:07] <ActionParsnip1> Redragon: as well as the others like kpdf
[14:07] <ActionParsnip1> Redragon: the one from adobe isnt OSS
[14:07] <arvind_khadri> ActionParsnip1, OO too can read them right?
[14:07] <ActionParsnip1> arvind_khadri: not sure, i always use acroread
[14:07] <arvind_khadri> Pici, can we make apt look at packages which we have compiled
[14:08] <arvind_khadri> ActionParsnip1, i do use OO :) it does
[14:08] <fabio_> there is still no acroread 9 for linux...
[14:08] <ActionParsnip1> arvind_khadri: nice, I use OO but not to read pdf
[14:08] <Pici> arvind_khadri: We can sort of let dpkg know about them, but its not foolproof.
[14:08] <Pici> !checkinstall
[14:09] <ActionParsnip1> fabio_: i'm on 8.1.3
[14:09] <fabio_> but there is acroread 9 for windows
[14:09] <arvind_khadri> Pici, cool... is it new?
[14:09] <fabio_> try acrobat reader 9 under wine: it's faster than 8 for linux
[14:09] <lut4rp> mibbittester: hello
[14:09] <ActionParsnip1> fabio_: run it through wine, i doubt there are huge differences for a casual pdf viewer
[14:10] <fabio_> ActionParsnip1: acrobat reader 9 is a killer application
[14:10] <ActionParsnip1> fabio_: but how much ram does it use ;)
[14:10] <juDGEY> hey i got server os installed, i have 2 x 750 gig on my server, but its only picking one up, anyway of getting the other one working?
[14:10] <Pici> arvind_khadri: not at all
[14:10] <fabio_> disable all the plugins, little memory usage
[14:11] <ActionParsnip1> fabio_: not with wine bundled in as well
[14:11] <ActionParsnip1> juDGEY: do they show in sudo fdisk -l?
[14:11] <fabio_> ActionParsnip1: you have enough memory... ii suppose
[14:11] <ActionParsnip1> fabio_: i like small and punchy, if i dodnt mind bloat i'd use windows
[14:12] <juDGEY> ActionParsnip1 here is the output
[14:12] <juDGEY> http://pastebin.com/m6f9e22bd
[14:12] <ActionParsnip1> juDGEY: do the drives detect ok in bios?
[14:12] <arvind_khadri> Pici, cool...didnt know about it.
[14:12] <fabio_> ActionParsnip1: me too, but what about evince using hundreds of ram with some pdf ?
[14:12] <KemrinH> Hey, does anyone know where in Ubuntu the Eliza chatbot keeps its script?
[14:12] <shausam27> how do i get amule to download faster it tells me i have  a low id h
[14:12] <juDGEY> its an off site server
[14:12] <ActionParsnip1> juDGEY: looks like 2 drives to me, sda and sdb
[14:13] <ActionParsnip1> fabio_: i dont use that so i couldnt comment
[14:13] <fabio_> ActionParsnip1: no problem but Adobe sucks
[14:13] <tesseracter> hey, i just got an update notice for sudo, is it legit?
[14:13] <fabio_> think about the flash plugin...
[14:14] <ActionParsnip1> fabio_: they make flash plugins nice though ;)
[14:14] <lisir1977> 这个聊天都是能干什么阿？
[14:14] <fabio_> think about Photoshop running only for win and mac...
[14:15] <ActionParsnip1> fabio_: im not interested in that sort of thing
[14:15] <tesseracter> fabio_, yep, i have a virtualbox XP to develop in flash. sucks.
[14:18] <fabio_> we need cleatype for linux
[14:18] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: it has reverted my resolution to 640x480
[14:19] <shausam27> how do i get amule to download faster it telling me i have a low -id
[14:19] <fabio_> shausam27: no incoming connection so...
[14:19] <knightwise> hey everyone
[14:20] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: thats fine, run gksudo nvidia-settings
[14:20] <Redragon> Just curious...If a person wanted to learn how to do some basic progamming, where might they find a tutorial that would point them in the right direction?
[14:20] <shausam27> fabio  how do i fix it
[14:21] <fabio_> shausam27: check your ports, maybe there is a firewall rule
[14:21] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: ok
[14:22] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: it still doesnt show my res
[14:23] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: did you see the nvidia logo when you booted?
[14:23] <shausam27> fabio  i not sure how  to is there some where i can turn of fire wall
[14:23] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: I dont think so, brb lemme reboot the system. Needs a reboot for updates anyway
[14:25] <chinmay> Hello, I am using mint6 based on intrepid, on installing mysql-server i got error......... pastebin........http://pastebin.com/m44b45d83
[14:25] <s-toned> ActionParsnip1: No, remapping the mouse buttons isn't that good, because it would move the clipboard-pasting from middle to right button too, which I wouldn't like.
[14:26] <ActionParsnip1> s-toned: thats all i got
[14:27] <shausam27> how do i turn off firewall or ajust it to let me down faster on amule
[14:28] <tesseracter> hey, i just got an update notice for sudo, is it legit?
[14:28] <Favorit> tesseracter: yes
[14:28] <chinmay> shausam27: i use firestarter.....there is an option to stop firewall there
[14:29] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: no logo, but the drivers are enabled
[14:29] <test_> Hello World
[14:29] <s-toned> ActionParsnip1: A patch for metacity would do the job, but I'd rather stick with the repositories. Maybe I'll kick metacity, but I don't know (yet) what to use instead.
[14:29] <looter> there is al little circular icon in the top right hand portion of my panel, sometimes it is  green  others right now it is red  with  white lines inside it.  Whats up with that icon?
[14:29] <ActionParsnip1> s-toned: fluxbox ;)
[14:30] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: then nvidia-settings will allow you to configure stuff
[14:30] <chinmay> Hello, I am using mint6 based on intrepid, on installing mysql-server i got error......... pastebin........http://pastebin.com/m44b45d83
[14:31] <shausam27> the amule tells me i am useing buddy as a firewal but icsn not seem to find it
[14:31] <genii> !mint | chinmay
[14:31] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: i just get 2 resolutions, two very small ones
[14:31] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: i'd try the 177 driver instead
[14:31] <chinmay> ubottu: thanks
[14:31] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: make sure the kernel source is installed too (for the nvidia)
[14:32] <NIT[L]> ActionParsnip1: how do i do that
[14:32] <ActionParsnip1> NIT[L]: dpkg -l | grep nvidia | grep source
[14:32] <Ryder51> are the settings in compizconfig settings manager saved to a settings file?
[14:32] <NIT[L]> gonna try 177 driver
[14:33] <Seven_Six_Two> when I want to switch between using an rt kernel and a generic one, do the same modules get loaded each time? It seems every time I get a new kernel I have to reinstall my video driver.
[14:33] <glitsj16> Ryder51: if you have it set that way yes, i think the default is to use the gconf db
[14:33] <Silicium> where is the actually used Gnome Theme saved? in the gconf?
[14:33] <shausam27> is buddy a firewall
[14:33] <Silicium> gnome-theme as foo.theme not gtkrc
[14:33] <looter> there is al little circular icon in the top right hand portion of my panel, sometimes it is  green  others right now it is red  with  white lines inside it.  Whats up with that icon?
[14:33] <Dr_willis> Silicium,  .theme or .themes i think
[14:34] <Silicium> yea there is it saved
[14:34] <shams> hi, i enabled UserDir module and put one domain in sites-available and create a link in sites-enabled. but when i surf that domain apache direct me to apache2-default page. how can i fix it?
[14:34] <hwilde> hello - how can I permanently disable the system beep?  I do not ever want it to beep.  Ever.
[14:34] <Silicium> but where is defined wich one should be used?
[14:34] <macondo> How do I prevent a certain partition from being mounted?
[14:34] <Silicium> hwilde: xset b off
[14:34] <Silicium> hwilde: this in autorun
[14:34] <Jufis> hwilde, you have ubuntu?
[14:34] <Jufis> lol
[14:34] <hwilde> Silicium, i gotta do that every boot?
[14:34] <arvind_khadri> looter, its green where you are logged into pidgin...red when you are arent... used to shutdown the machine :D
[14:34] <Seven_Six_Two> looter, what's it do if you click on it?
[14:34] <Silicium> hwilde: yea, in xterm
[14:34] <Jufis> hwilde, I mean compiz fusion
[14:35] <Silicium> or automated in a xinitscript
[14:35] <hateball> hwilde: or blacklist the pcspkr module
[14:35] <odder> hello, does anybody know how to make gnome-panel display no icons?
[14:35] <hwilde> Silicium, no, across all programs, system wide
[14:35] <looter> thats really weird....
[14:35] <hwilde> hateball, ahh now we are talkin
[14:35] <diginux> hwilde: cut the speaker cord ;)
[14:35] <macondo> hwilde: no, you can do system>preferences>sound
[14:35] <Silicium> rm /dev/dsp
[14:35] <macondo> hwilde: >sounds
[14:35] <arvind_khadri> macondo, remove it from fstab
[14:35] <Silicium> argh
[14:35] <looter> thanks though.  I just noticed it today.  It would  make sense to as I use  pidgin alot
[14:35] <hwilde> macondo, I am in system pref sounds... what there ?
[14:35] <Jufis> hwilde, go to the general compiz options
[14:35] <Jufis> and uncheck "audible bell"
[14:35] <Silicium> The Currentyl User theme file, Where is this defined?
[14:35] <Seven_Six_Two> odder, you should be able to remove everything that's on it
[14:35] <macondo> arvind_khadri: it's not in /etc/fstab because it's an external hdd,
[14:35] <Silicium> in witch file?
[14:35] <Silicium> wich database
[14:35] <arvind_khadri> looter, welcome :)
[14:35] <Silicium> wich xml
[14:35] <compengi> what picture editing opensource applications are there other than gimp?
[14:36] <hwilde> Jufis, where?
[14:36] <macondo> hwilde: the sounds tab, then the checkboks
[14:36] <Favorit> echo $LANG
[14:36] <Favorit> oops
[14:36] <arvind_khadri> macondo, oh ok..it will be there when you insert the HDD...
[14:36] <Jufis> hwilde, do you have compiz settings manager installed?
[14:36] <hwilde> macondo, yeah I unchecked speaker and it still beeps.  like here in xchat if I hit delete with no txt
[14:36] <hateball> hwilde: you could do "sudo rmmod pcspkr"
[14:36] <hwilde> Jufis, I think you are off track.  thanks anyways
[14:37] <macondo> hwilde: did you uncheck the play alerts and play sound?
[14:37] <Jufis> hwilde, I disabled it from there and now more beeps when I hit delete in xchat with no text :)
[14:37] <arvind_khadri> hateball, ??? for what reason are you suggesting the at?
[14:37] <macondo> arvind_khadri: can I just comment them out?
[14:37] <odder> Seven_Six_Two: okay, I need to be more specific. I want the application-list applet display text only
[14:37] <hwilde> Jufis, I have no options on appearance... where do you get to this setting?
[14:37] <macondo> arvind_khadri: they are not in /etc/fstab
[14:37] <hateball> arvind_khadri: if there's no need for the pcspkr
[14:37] <arvind_khadri> macondo, you can do so only when they are inserted...fstab is realtime
[14:37] <Seven_Six_Two> compengi, xara extreme, blender, gnupaint, kpaint, krita
[14:37] <macondo> arvind_khadri: they are mounted, and fstab doesn't show them
[14:38] <hwilde> hateball, where is the blacklist ?
[14:38] <arvind_khadri> hateball, he just wants to remove the beep not the entire sound
[14:38] <Jufis> hwilde, http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/08/04/replace-the-system-beep-with-a-compiz-effect/
[14:38] <Ryder51> glitsj16 : is there a way to set that profile via termi9nal
[14:38] <arvind_khadri> macondo, just a sec.
[14:38] <Ryder51> *terminal
[14:38] <hwilde> my xchat beeps at me, thunderbird beeps, all kinds of stuff is beeping.  I want the pc speaker DEAD
[14:38] <hateball> arvind_khadri: what else do you use pcspkr for? most of us have soundcards anyhow...
[14:38] <hateball> hwilde: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[14:39] <arvind_khadri> hateball, ok
[14:39] <ActionParsnip1> hwilde: sudo rmmod pcspkr
[14:39] <hwilde> ActionParsnip1, already done :)  and blacklisted.   vnice
[14:39] <hwilde> hateball, thnx
[14:39] <hateball> hwilde: Hope it helps :)
[14:40] <glitsj16> ryder51: don't know that one, I've changed mine to flat files ages ago and never looked back, #compiz might know
[14:40] <Ryder51> ow ok thanks
[14:40] <ActionParsnip1> hwilde: good lad
[14:40] <hwilde> I just got tired of going through every app preferences and trying to disable.   and couldn't find it in xchat
[14:40] <Seven_Six_Two> odder, I don't know how you would do that. You can install a different menu applet, or a different panel app...
[14:40] <Dr_willis> hwilde,  theres also 'xset b 0 0 0 ' that will kill beeps in a lot of things. :)
[14:41] <hwilde> Dr_willis, not without pcspkr lol
[14:41] <Dr_willis> of couyrse it also depends on how/what is beeping
[14:41]  * hwilde stabs pcspkr with a screwdriver
[14:41] <hwilde> take that you beeper
[14:41]  * hwilde returns to idling before !ot 
[14:42] <Dr_willis>  Ive just noticed that ubuntu does a loud BEEP when i reset/shutdown.. and simce im wearing headphones most of the time.. i REALLY notice it. :)
[14:42] <odder> Seven_Six_Two: for example?
[14:44] <arvind_khadri> macondo, why dont you unmount it as soon as it mounts :)
[14:44] <brunner-mises> Does the server ISO have a GUI, or is it all CLI?
[14:45] <Seven_Six_Two> odder, xfce-panel with xfce4-xfapplet-plugin
[14:45] <brunner-mises> I'm sorry. I  got disconnected.
[14:45] <arvind_khadri> macondo, btw you can do it by doing sudo /etc/init.d/autofs stop
[14:45] <brunner-mises> Does the server ISO have a GUI, or is it all CLI?
[14:45] <quibbler> brunner-mises: default cli
[14:45] <Spanglegluppet> hi guys, I just upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10 and Transmission won't download any torrents, just saying "data not fully available". anyone know a solution?
[14:45] <brunner-mises> quibbler: but I can install X if I want to?
[14:46] <quibbler> brunner-mises: yes
[14:46] <macondo> arvind_khadri: does that prevent each one of the partitions from being mounted?
[14:46] <brunner-mises> I wouldn't normally, on a server, but I really need to allow someone to use a web app from the box
[14:46] <brunner-mises> quibbler: thanks so much
[14:46] <ActionParsnip1> brunner-mises: kinda makes the server install pintless though
[14:46] <arvind_khadri> macondo, it will prevent all the partitions from being mounted...
[14:46] <quibbler> brunner-mises: you are welcome
[14:46] <Seven_Six_Two> brunner-mises, you could install links2
[14:46] <macondo> arvind_khadri: that's not what I want, what about my main partition?
[14:47] <arvind_khadri> macondo, as in?
[14:47] <chinmay> when we  install mysql-server it gives following error.......http://pastebin.com/m44b45d83
[14:47] <macondo> arvind_khadri: where the OS is installed
[14:47] <arvind_khadri> macondo, is the OS on an external cd?
[14:47] <arvind_khadri> macondo, sorry HDD?
[14:47] <macondo> arvind_khadri: no
[14:47] <arvind_khadri> macondo, it will only be stopped for this session
[14:48] <macondo> arvind_khadri: I don't what that either :)
[14:49] <arvind_khadri> macondo, you can bring it up again... replace stop with start
[14:49] <macondo> I just want ubuntu not to mount the volumes of the external hdd upon connecting
[14:49] <macondo> Always
[14:49] <Sergeant_Pony> is there any way to activate restricited drivers thru a console?  I did upgrades last night and now my desktop is fubard.
[14:49] <chinmay> macondo: i think that option is available in ntfs-config
[14:50] <ActionParsnip1> macondo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=209418
[14:50] <macondo> chinmay: none of the partitions is ntfs, will it work anyway?
[14:51] <chinmay> macondo: i dont think so....
[14:51] <ActionParsnip1> macondo: that guide tells you how
[14:51] <Seven_Six_Two> Sergeant_Pony, what kind of video card do you have
[14:52] <chinmay> macondo: is it fat
[14:52] <arvind_khadri> Spanglegluppet, its the issue with ports being closed i guess
[14:52] <macondo> ActionParsnip1: thank you, but I have no such thing as "removable media" in the preferences menue
[14:53] <tea_ovedose> Hi, How do i fix the following problem "this file has been encumbered with DRM encryption it will not play in MPlayer"
[14:53] <Sergeant_Pony> Seven_Six_Two: it's using nvidia
[14:53] <Seven_Six_Two> Sergeant_Pony,   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[14:53] <Marcelo_AR_1974> hi
[14:53] <need_help23> hi
[14:53] <Seven_Six_Two> tea_ovedose, what kind of file is it?
[14:53] <Spanglegluppet> arvind_khadri: yeah, it's set to port 51413, which is closed. should i just change the port?
[14:54] <arvind_khadri> Spanglegluppet, same issue here... am just checking which ones are open
[14:54] <tea_ovedose> Seven_Six_Two: RMVB
[14:54] <Sergeant_Pony> Seven_Six_Two: it did upgrades last night and deactivaied restricted drivers. in turn turned off my special effects, in turn no AWN, taskbar or program bar.
[14:54] <need_help23> could some one help me with some performance problems?
[14:54] <Spanglegluppet> arvind_khadri: ah okay, so it's not just me
[14:55] <romme> is there anyone with gtk programming experience?
[14:55] <Seven_Six_Two> Sergeant_Pony, but you get a desktop and mouse?
[14:55] <quibbler> !someone|need_help23
[14:55] <ikonia> romme: load os guys in #gtk
[14:55] <hay_ig2000> what is universe and multiverse?
[14:55] <Sergeant_Pony> Seven_Six_Two: I have a desktop with 2 folders and the mouse
[14:55] <ActionParsnip1> need_help23: ask them one at a time
[14:55] <daughtree> can somebody suggest something to post the output of a command in a dialong in a live style?
[14:55] <ActionParsnip1> need_help23: start with the most pressing
[14:56] <daughtree> dailog i mean
[14:56] <Seven_Six_Two> Sergeant_Pony, can you alt+f2 and run the gnome panel app?
[14:56] <daughtree> dialog
[14:56] <genii> daughtree: PErhaps pastebinit
[14:56] <daughtree> dialog --title 'Message' --msgbox "`ls -la` " 20 60
[14:56] <need_help23> i get some problems entering 3d applications... freezes and things like that
[14:56] <Marcelo_AR_1974> Can anyone please help me with the following problem: I need to know if there is a way to start an application as a super user from the "Applications" menu. I need this cause I want an application to be able to modify configuration data... I tried running it from a Terminal with "sudo" but I would like to know if there is another way... Thanks!
[14:56] <daughtree> that isnt live style it waits for few seconds until it has done executing ls -la command :(
[14:57] <Seven_Six_Two> Sergeant_Pony, but all I did was that command I posted. I had the same issue
[14:57] <daughtree> genii: pastebinit?
[14:57] <ActionParsnip1> need_help23: have you installed video drivers?
[14:57] <Seven_Six_Two> but it was fine again in less than 5 minutes
[14:57] <Jampiter> Is there a plugin for Pidgin that will make it support webcam?
[14:57] <tea_ovedose> Seven_Six_Two:it's a media file in .rmvb format
[14:57] <need_help23> yes... i think so
[14:58] <Jampiter> Specifically on the MSN protocol
[14:58] <Sergeant_Pony> Seven_Six_Two: ok, giving it a try
[14:58] <Seven_Six_Two> tea_ovedose, sorry, I don't know that format. Although I would just avoid drm at all costs and complain to the source of the file.
[14:59] <admini_> Hello,Everyone
[14:59] <Marcelo_AR_1974> hi admini_
[14:59] <genii> daughtree: Ah, nvm. When reading your Q it seemed you wanted to post output of CLI commands. There is a command-line pastebin which does this (for when there is no gui useful to show others error output, etc)
[14:59] <need_help23> i installed the proprietary graphics drivers...
[14:59] <bullgard4> Why don't I have no directory /usr/lib/alsa-lib in Ubuntu 8.04.2? http://past.ubuntuusers.de/394179
[15:00] <Jampiter> Anyone?
[15:00] <tea_ovedose> Seven_Six_Two: ok, just curious what are DRM ?
[15:00] <Seven_Six_Two> Jampiter, I think you've got lofty goals. Microsoft frequently changes their protocol so that only msn will work.
[15:00] <Sergeant_Pony> Seven_Six_Two: "screen isn't composited. Please run compis (-fusion) or another compositing manager"
[15:00] <Seven_Six_Two> tea_ovedose, Digital Rights/Restrictions Management
[15:00] <Jampiter> Seven_Six_Two: Kopete works with it - at least on the other PC - so theoretically Pidgin should be able to too
[15:01] <need_help23> ActionParsnip1: i installed the proprietary graphics drivers...
[15:01] <g33k_gir1> !resolution
[15:01] <quibbler> bullgard4: the link is dead
[15:01] <tea_ovedose> Seven_Six_Two: alright thx... cya
[15:01] <Seven_Six_Two> Jampiter, video on msn? last I heard people couldn't even connect. I don't use msn anymore though
[15:01] <bullgard4> quibbler: Why do I have no directory /usr/lib/alsa-lib in Ubuntu 8.04.2? http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/394179
[15:02] <ActionParsnip1> hi g33k_gir1
[15:02] <Jampiter> Seven_Six_Two: MSN connects and works perfectly well
[15:02] <odder> Seven_Six_Two: you're sure it works? I've just checked it and there is no option of displaying window list without icons
[15:02] <ActionParsnip1> need_help23: so you have full video accelleration
[15:02] <Seven_Six_Two> Sergeant_Pony, can you open a terminal and run compiz or the gnome panel?
[15:02] <ActionParsnip1> need_help23: try installing the medibuntu codecs
[15:03] <odder> Seven_Six_Two: (I mean the xfce4-panel)
[15:03] <arvind_khadri> Spanglegluppet, are you behind a firewall?
[15:03] <need_help23> ActionParsnip1: k, i'll give it a try
[15:03] <lifestream> Does anyone know if Logitech MediaPlay mouse still uses the evdev driver?  (or do you know where I can check?) TY
[15:03] <Seven_Six_Two> odder, oh I'm not sure of anything, that was just an example. I've used different panels before, and from what I remember of xfce there were no icons in the menus. I could be wrong tho
[15:04] <jedi06> how do you upload a file to a server
[15:04] <aesfes> jvk
[15:04] <Dr_willis> !find wput
[15:04] <Dr_willis> !info wput
[15:04] <ActionParsnip1> jedi06: depends what protocol the server is using
[15:04] <Seven_Six_Two> odder, you said application list earlier not window list
[15:04] <Dragon64> use the force young jedi
[15:04] <bullgard4> quibbler: I corrected the URL.
[15:04] <Seven_Six_Two> did you not mean the application "main" menu?
[15:05] <apostle1> trying to install Chelsio drivers....how do I install linux kernel sources?
[15:05] <odder> Seven_Six_Two: yeah, but I've corrected myself
[15:05] <jedi06> ftp
[15:05] <Spanglegluppet> arvind_khadri: no, i'm not
[15:05] <flipstur> Ayn one have a sec to answer a simple quetion for a noob?
[15:05] <arvind_khadri> !ask | flipstur
[15:05] <ActionParsnip1> jedi06: filezilla, gftp, ftp on the command line
[15:05] <odder> Seven_Six_Two: no, I mean the app that shows you currently opened apps
[15:05] <flipstur> Where do I extract my graphics card drivers to?
[15:06] <ikonia> flipstur: you dont
[15:06] <ikonia> flipstur: you let xorg/ubuntu manage them for you
[15:06] <lifestream> So newest version of xorg doesn't use xorg.conf for the config? (the file is really short!) So where do I config my screen and my mouse?
[15:06] <flipstur> I have downloaded them to archive manager now what?
[15:06] <Seven_Six_Two> odder, ooh. I take it back. not sure
[15:06] <g33k_gir1> !color depth
[15:06] <ikonia> lifestream: you can insert any old parameters into the file
[15:06] <ikonia> flipstur: what video card do you have ?
[15:06] <g33k_gir1> ActionParsnip1: hey :D
[15:07] <flipstur> ATI radeon HD2400 PRO
[15:07] <lifestream> ikonia, Hm. Guess I'll give it another try :P *crosses fingers really hard* TY
[15:07] <ikonia> flipstur: have you tried the drivers provided by the driver manager in ubuntu
[15:07] <flipstur> yes
[15:07] <ikonia> flipstur: how did you enable them ?
[15:07] <quibbler> bullgard4: you maybe missing the file and not i think the directory  in a terminal type  cd /usr/lib/alsa-lib  then ls -a
[15:07] <kikokos> hi
[15:07] <jedi06> what is the command to get a file onto a server? put?
[15:08] <ikonia> jedi06: are you using ftp ?
[15:08] <kikokos> how to connect to next comp (via samba) from mc?
[15:08] <jedi06> yes ftp
[15:08] <Seven_Six_Two> lifestream, try   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[15:08] <ikonia> jedi06: then yes, put
[15:09] <flipstur> brb
[15:09] <Seven_Six_Two> lifestream, then restart xserver
[15:09] <legend2440> what version of xorg does intrepid use? 7.4?
[15:09] <kikokos> anybody know?
[15:09] <ikonia> kikokos: it has to be mounted
[15:09] <arvind_khadri> Spanglegluppet, strangely its working here now... btw i just visited my router page..thats it...
[15:10] <bullgard4> quibbler: '$ cd /usr/lib/alsa-lib; bash: cd: /usr/lib/alsa-lib: No such file or directory.'
[15:10] <Spanglegluppet> arvind_khadri: ah, it just started to work for me too. thanks anyway. D:
[15:10] <kikokos> ikonia, ahh it's not so good because i've tried to mount it, but it doesnt work :P
[15:10] <arvind_khadri> Spanglegluppet, the issue would be the delay in trackers
[15:10] <ikonia> kikokos: then that is nothing to do with mc
[15:11] <kikokos> ikonia, so just smbc will work?
[15:11] <ikonia> no
[15:11] <g33k_gir1> !defaultdepth
[15:12] <lifestream> Seven_Six_Two, Will try that, thank you
[15:12] <need_help23> ActionParsnip1: have to add medibuntu as package source
[15:12] <quibbler> bullgard4: why are you playing  the wave file with sudo?
[15:13] <jimcooncat> Your opinion please: apt-cacher, apt-cacher-ng, or something else?
[15:13] <odder> Seven_Six_Two: Is it impossible, then?
[15:13] <ActionParsnip1> need_help23: then follow the guide to install the codecs
[15:13] <bullgard4> quibbler: I will tell you after you have answered my question.
[15:15] <need_help23> ActionParsnip1: uhm... which codecs should i innstall?
[15:15] <quibbler> bullgard4: i don't know why you don't have the directory....i do ...not with the file you are looking for but a couple of other libraries
[15:15] <Seven_Six_Two> odder, well, with open source nothing is impossible. It's just a matter of scale
[15:15] <lifestream> Seven_Six_Two, something's impossible : re-creating patented software ;p
[15:15] <odder> Seven_Six_Two: geez, it shuld be simple, there's such an option on fluxbox e.g.
[15:16] <odder> lifestream: you sure? what about reverse-engineering like they did with ooo?
[15:16] <bullgard4> quibbler: Ok. Do you know what DEB program package will install this directory?
[15:16] <ZummiG777> Question: Can I create a directory interfaces.d under /etc/network and have individual network configuration files load from there "automagically"
[15:16] <Seven_Six_Two> lifestream, lol
[15:16] <quibbler> bullgard4: no
[15:17] <teddy_> does apt-get update...apt-get upgrade...update and upgrade all my packages to the latest version(s)?
[15:17] <BulBUlRed> ZummiG777: you can have different files with another name and then make a script that switches your networking config file
[15:17] <active9> hi all
[15:17] <BulBUlRed> i did this on my laptop with 2 profiles: static and dhcp
[15:17] <bullgard4> quibbler: I have taken the sudo prefix because I was navigating in the /usr hierarchy.
[15:17] <s-toned> ActionParsnip1: Can I run fluxbox as the wm for gnome?
[15:18] <active9> what is the ftp command that can get all folder in remote machine
[15:18] <need_help23> ActionParsnip1: i get an error message... no public key for medibuntu :/
[15:18] <ZummiG777> Hm.  OK.  I guess that will have to do!
[15:18] <ActionParsnip1> s-toned: you can run gnome apps in fluxbox, fluxbox is its own deal but you have gnome libs so you can run gnome apps
[15:18] <jimcooncat> bullgard4: apt-file will tell you what package a file on your system belongs to, if any
[15:18] <ActionParsnip1> need_help23: you havent gone all the way
[15:18] <Seven_Six_Two> odder, it should be. I think you should ask  Mark McLoughlin <mark@skynet.ie> to add that feature. I'd like to see it too.
[15:18] <need_help23> ActionParsnip1: so what shall i do?
[15:19] <ActionParsnip1> need_help23: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[15:20] <active9> anyone can help me?
[15:20] <smokeytheman> hi, can anyone help me?
[15:20] <odder> Seven_Six_Two: why Mark? window-list applet shows Alexander Larsson as the author
[15:20] <Favorit> smokeytheman: don't ask if you may ask, ask.
[15:21] <Favorit> same goes for active9
[15:21] <ActionParsnip1> !ask
[15:21] <active9> what is the ftp command that can get all folder in remote machine?
[15:21] <|FA|ratbox> Here's a question for you guys and gals.... running a live disk of 8.04 and need to install on NVIDIA fakeraid... can you help??
[15:21] <Favorit> active9: mget *
[15:21] <ActionParsnip1> active9: mget
[15:21] <ActionParsnip1> !raid | |FA|ratbox
[15:21]  * Favorit slaps a high5 with ActionParsnip1
[15:21] <active9> mget will ask me yes or no to get the files
[15:22]  * ActionParsnip1 HI5 ... I LIIKE
[15:22] <smokeytheman> wow, well first off i cant copy paste
[15:22] <Favorit> active9: type "prom" as a command before it
[15:22] <Favorit> active9: it's a shortcut for prompt, to toggle promting about multiple files
[15:22] <quibbler> bullgard4: try without sudo
[15:22] <|FA|ratbox> I'll start there, thanks alot... :)
[15:22] <smokeytheman> i think copy is working but paste doesnt do anything
[15:22] <active9> something like this : prom mget *
[15:22] <Favorit> smokeytheman: in X or in console?
[15:22] <active9> is it correct
[15:23] <Favorit> active9: no, prom<enter>mget *<enter>
[15:23] <smokeytheman> not in console
[15:23] <smokeytheman> on pastebin
[15:23] <bullgard4> quibbler: This will not do any better.
[15:23] <active9> oo ok
[15:23] <active9> Favorit> is there any other way to disbale this prompt
[15:23] <Favorit> smokeytheman: this could be connected to your keyboard shortcuts. Did you try pasting with your middle-mouse-button?
[15:23] <active9> disable
[15:24] <Favorit> active9: uhm, no? Not following the question though, what other way, why prom is not good?
[15:24] <rockyrock> hi guys, i just installed a new 500GB hard drive. I used GParted to make a MSDOS Partition Table to the new hard disk. Then i created a primary partition with the whole space. But i can't see the hard disk!!! I didn't mount it. Do i have to?
[15:24] <rockyrock> and how
[15:24] <rockyrock> ?
[15:24] <smokeytheman> im on a laptop in class, its an issue with dpkg initially so i cant download scite
[15:24] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  yes you must mount a FILEsystem to use it.
[15:24] <Favorit> rockyrock: yes, you have to create a filesystem and mount the partition with it somewhere
[15:24] <smokeytheman> i cant apt-get install anything, i get an error
[15:24] <active9> Favorit> ok I will put it in my script
[15:24] <Dr_willis> !mount | rockyrock
[15:25] <rockyrock> I formated the primary partition into ext3
[15:25] <Favorit> active9: if you want to download stuff using ftp from script, why not to wget it?
[15:25] <quibbler> bullgard4: i don't need sudo to play wav file in usr/lib/Skype/Sounds
[15:25] <arvind_khadri> Dr_willis, ahh i was typing the whole thing for him..
[15:25] <active9> Favorit> thanks for the info, I will revert back to you my ouput
[15:25] <smokeytheman> i try to right click and click on paste
[15:25] <rockyrock> !GParted
[15:25] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  you just said you made it MSDOS .. thats not ext3 :)
[15:25] <Seven_Six_Two> odder, I was looking at window selector applet
[15:25] <Favorit> smokeytheman: you can just select and then middle-paste, that should be the default
[15:25] <active9> Favorit> actually they only open port for sftp
[15:26] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  depending on what filesystem you used.. you must make the proper fstab entry, or mount command
[15:26] <Favorit> active9: sftp... then you can probably use "scp" as client
[15:26] <rockyrock> Dr_willis: yeah, that was the default option for the Partition Table. I don't know what's Partition Table!!
[15:26] <Favorit> active9: it falls back to sftp and then doesn't ask you anything but your password
[15:26] <rockyrock> I want something open soruce
[15:26] <active9> Favorit> that one also cannot because my target machine is windoz ftp server
[15:26] <Favorit> active9: uh :)
[15:27] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  time to read up and learn how drives are partitioned and how filesystems work.
[15:27] <active9> Favorit> ::)
[15:27] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  you aprtition the disk.. and set its 'type' to be what you want.. you then format it in the proper filesystem based on its type.
[15:27] <rodina> Hi, I have a problem with audio in Ubuntu, can someone help me?
[15:27] <ActionParsnip1> !sound | rodina
[15:27] <arvind_khadri> how do i completely remove kopete from my system....i dont even want the settings to be left behind... i did a purge now but didnt help
[15:27] <rockyrock> Dr_willis: what Partition Table should i choose for ext3?
[15:28] <ActionParsnip1> arvind_khadri: sudo apt-get --purge remove kopete; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove
[15:28] <smokeytheman> http://pastebin.com/m20a01592
[15:28] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  you set the aprtition TYPE   not partition table.. gparted has a menu to set its type.
[15:28] <Favorit> ActionParsnip1: do not purge!!! :D
[15:28] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  all of this can be done easially in gparted.
[15:28] <Dr_willis> !partition
[15:28] <g33k_gir1> i can't fix my screen resolution. I've followed the instructions at http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=129379&postcount=21 to add 1650x1050 to my xorg.conf, but there is no change
[15:28] <ActionParsnip1> Favorit: a tousand apologies, i will thras myself tonight
[15:28] <kke> can i create per user hosts-files?  (like /etc/hosts but for a single user)
[15:28] <Favorit> ActionParsnip1: hehehe ;)
[15:29] <ActionParsnip1> hahahahahahaa
[15:29] <ActionParsnip1> its still funny
[15:29] <bullgard4> quibbler: I overlooked a small letter 'a'. Now I found the associated DEB program package and installed it. Now there exists this directory. Now the error message has disappered also.
[15:29] <Favorit> kke: I'm afraid not
[15:29] <quibbler> bullgard4: what is the prog?
[15:29] <bullgard4> jimcooncat: Thank you very much for your help. It solved my problem at hand.
[15:29] <SkyLab> hi
[15:29] <arvind_khadri> ActionParsnip1, btw there is no -- in apt-get its for dpkg as in dpkg --purge and apt-get purge  :P
[15:30] <Jampiter> Hi SkyLab
[15:30] <need_help23> ActionParsnip1: so now i got it working :) which codec should i install now?
[15:30] <rockyrock> Dr_willis: when i installed my hard disk, i choose to make a new partition but GParted asked me to choose a Partition table for the new hard disk. Then i chose msdos. Then i created a primary ext3 partition!!!
[15:30] <jimcooncat> bullgard4: that's great! too bad the darn thing is so slow
[15:30] <sastha> SkyLab: hi
[15:30] <Spidergirl> im having a problem with a partition
[15:30] <rockyrock> Dr_willis: what confused me is when it asked me for the partition table.
[15:30] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,    sounds like you made a ext3 partition then..  a drive Must have a parittion table.. to hold the partition information.. you then make a partition.
[15:30] <bullgard4> quibbler: The program is a driver libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so
[15:31] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  you then have to format the partition.. then mount it.
[15:31] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  its made a 'dos compatiable partition table' i guess is the proper term for what it did..  that holds the infomation on what partitions exist.
[15:31] <need_help23> ActionParsnip1: w32codecs?
[15:31] <smokeytheman> hi, http://pastebin.com/m20a01592 anyone know how to fix this?
[15:32] <rockyrock> Dr_willis: GParted asked for the partition table first before making anything
[15:32] <hmw> i am trying to use my HSDPA modem (huwai) with 8.10, but the network manager wont let me log in. In Fedora i just got asked for the PIN code. I didnt find any useful hints on the web. Can anyone give me a hint, where to look next?
[15:32] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  Yes..  that makes sence..
[15:32] <Favorit> smokeytheman: try apt-get update
[15:32] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  since it was a totally new disk. with no partitions ever at all on it..
[15:33] <rockyrock> Dr_willis: so is it right to choose msdos for ext3?
[15:33] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  You are confusing the use of the term msdos.
[15:33] <smokeytheman> i get this error http://pastebin.com/m1b426aa8
[15:33] <lianimator> is there a command to close windows based on its title name?
[15:33] <Favorit> smokeytheman: make that sudo apt-get update
[15:33] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  it made a Partition TABLE thats compatiable with msdos.. You then make ext3 PARTITIONS
[15:33] <DiAbLe666> Hey, I'm running several ubuntu 8.10-server, on each one, when i connect with SSH, i need to wait 5-10 seconds between the login prompt and the password prompt, any idea ?
[15:34] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  you did not make a dos 'partition'
[15:34] <Favorit> DiAbLe666: your ip can't be back-resolved by target host
[15:34] <smokeytheman> favorit: i did update
[15:34] <Scunizi> DiAbLe666: are you using <server_name>@IPaddress ?
[15:34] <rockyrock> Dr_willis: yeah i understand that. I then created a ext3 partitions. but GParted didn't give me the option for the mount point!
[15:34] <Favorit> smokeytheman: it finished without errors?
[15:34] <Favorit> smokeytheman: now try that other command that failed before
[15:34] <smokeytheman> no, that was the error
[15:34] <grzegorz129> hi! my cd/dvd recorder has stop working
[15:34] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  tjhats because gparted dont do that part of the task
[15:34] <grzegorz129> in dmesg i see: http://pastebin.com/d87a8d09
[15:34] <rockyrock> OPS!
[15:35] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  you edit your fstab  to mount the parittion
[15:35] <linduxed> my usb-stick is working like crazy after i cancelled an operation
[15:35] <linduxed> now it doesnt want to be unmounted
[15:35] <rockyrock> Dr_willis: how to do that?
[15:35] <linduxed> any way to kill all activity?
[15:35] <DiAbLe666> Favorit: oh that's what I tought, I'm gonna ask the sshd not to resolve :)
[15:35] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  edit the /etc/fstab file  with a proper line in it..
[15:35] <Dr_willis> !fstab | rockyrock
[15:35] <active9> anyway thanks all for your help
[15:36] <__chris> Hi does ubuntu 8.04 do any autoupdating out of the box, I can't see any default cron entries for apt-get upgrade etc etc
[15:36] <Out_Cold> is there a way to perhaps 'tail' a dd if=dev/random?
[15:36] <DiAbLe666> Favorit: thanks
[15:36] <DiAbLe666> Scunizi: what do you mean ?
[15:36] <smokeytheman> favorit:http://pastebin.com/m54cf5c7e
[15:37] <sipior> linduxed: lsof will show which processes are holding files open on the volume you want to unmount.
[15:37] <smokeytheman> sry http://pastebin.com/m54cf5c7e
[15:37] <rockyrock> Dr_willis: i have another question plz. While i was installing ubuntu, in the partitioning phase i created a ext3 partition and specified the mount point for it to be in /media/Data. When i finished the installation, i can see the partition on the desktop but i can't put files in it. Ubuntu says that i don't have permissions
[15:37] <Scunizi> DiAbLe666: nevermind .. sounds like you got it resolved with Favorit
[15:37] <rodina> Hi, I am new to Linux world and I have few stupid questions ... Ubuntu on my notebook is mute and I need help
[15:38] <sastha> \exit
[15:38] <sastha> quuit
[15:38] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  thats because its correct :) Your user dosent have permissions.. if you want them to access it fully you  could make a directory on the filesystem and have that directory owned by the user you want to access it.
[15:38] <linduxed> sipior: how do i use it?
[15:38] <sipior> linduxed: "man lsof" :-)
[15:38] <Scunizi> !ask | rodina
[15:38] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  or chown the mountpoint  to be owned by the user after the filesystem is mounted.
[15:39] <sipior> linduxed: but something like "lsof /mnt/volumename" will do
[15:39] <linduxed> sipior: haha ok
[15:39] <fasta> Where can I configure that I want that USB media is displayed on the desktop?
[15:39] <Andry_WorkZ> can I enable anti-aliasing with Intel Graphic card?
[15:39] <hmw> fasta: they should appear by default!? did you change any regarding stuff, or is your setup untouched?
[15:40] <rodina> Problem: notebook Asus F3Q and it is mute (Ubuntu 8.10), how can I fix it?
[15:40] <Finnish_> How do I find out what motherboard is in my laptop`
[15:40] <rockyrock> Dr_willis: I know how to chown the mountpoint, buthow to do this "if you want them to access it fully you  could make a directory on the filesystem and have that directory owned by the user you want to access it." ?
[15:40] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  make a directory... chown the directory
[15:40] <fasta> hmw: I don't think I changed it. When I go to Computer it is listed, though.
[15:40] <farm> can anyone recommend a printing channel?
[15:40] <rockyrock> Dr_willis: in that mountpoint?
[15:40] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  'sudo mkdir /media/whatever'
[15:40] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  yes.. makes sence dont it. :)
[15:40] <fasta> hmw: I just like the "display it on desktop" feature.
[15:41] <Knez> This broadcom wifi is making me crazy... Anyone got any ideas on how to solve my problem? :)
[15:41] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  'sudo mkdir /media/whatever/usersdatadir'
[15:41] <rockyrock> Dr_willis: yeah :-D
[15:41] <farm> i have a brother hl-2030 & it prints faded. I want to know whether it's worth me buying new toner - can't get any brother support :(
[15:41] <__chris> Hi does ubuntu 8.04 do any autoupdating out of the box, I can't see any default cron entries for apt-get upgrade etc etc
[15:41] <Knez> Been reading threads on the forum for 2 days now, and i still don't get it to work.
[15:41] <rockyrock> Dr_willis: where to find LOTS of info about partitioning in Ubuntu?
[15:41] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  google..  its documented in 100000's of sites..
[15:42] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  its not ubuntu specific :)
[15:42] <rockyrock> :)
[15:42] <Dr_willis> rockyrock,  wiki pages are good basic info also
[15:42] <rockyrock> Dr_willis: thnx so much bro :)
[15:42] <Knez> Anyone? ;)
[15:42] <kennyyu> hi there, after restarting samba by ``sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart'' i still find that the process smbd hasn't been kicked off... may i know what's wrong with it? thanks@!
[15:43] <hmw> fasta - start "gconf-editor" (you can enable an icon for it under "Applications/System Tools", then go to apps/nautilus/desktop and check the setting "volumes_visible"
[15:43] <Knez> Link to my thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1073423
[15:43] <g33k_gir1> can anyone help? my gnome display manager does not offer me any resolution higher than 1280x1024, and all the howto's on the net I've found so far don't seem to work for Intrepid!
[15:43] <fasta> hmw: thanks
[15:43] <kennyyu> so i could just manually kicked off smbd by ''sudo smbd''... which is not a right way, right?
[15:44] <sipior> Knez: there's precious little information there. what steps have you taken to try to get the internal card working?
[15:44] <Dr_willis> kennyyu,  i think   'sudo /etc/init.d/samba start' is the better way
[15:44] <Knez> sipior: I have tried many ndiswrapper guides, b43-fwcutter etc
[15:44] <Knez> Still nothing
[15:45] <hmw> kennyyu - are you trying to kill a samba process?
[15:45] <kennyyu> Dr_willis: but such way does not start smbd...
[15:45] <Dr_willis> the b43fwcutter package worked for me here. :)
[15:45] <Knez> I have the wlan0 device, and Network Manager sees the card
[15:45] <kennyyu> hmw: i'm trying to start the samba process.
[15:45] <Knez> But it can't find any networks
[15:45] <Dr_willis> kennyyu,  i though ive seen where that way starts smbd and nmbd    if i rember right.. both parts are  needed.
[15:46] <kennyyu> Dr_willis: both parts?
[15:46] <mfdavid> hi all. I have two screens (my lcd monitor and my TV). Im using xinerama. If I open Totem, move it to my secondary screen, and then set it to fullscreen, it works fine. But all the other aplications (games, VLC, etc) always force to fullscreen in the my primary LCD monitor... how can I force then to start on my secondary screen as fullscreen?
[15:46] <kennyyu> Dr_willis: sorry. is it possible to detail the steps that i might need to follow....?
[15:46] <quibbler> __chris: system-administration-software sources-updates
[15:46] <sipior> Knez: does "iwlist <dev name> scanning" return anything?
[15:46] <Dr_willis> kennyyu,  i recall ages ago it showed starting both.. now it just zays ----->   * Starting Samba daemons      as in 2 of them :)
[15:46] <hmw> kennyyu - use a terminal to watch the system log for more info, why it wont start: "tail -f /var/log/syslog" - also check your smb.conf by typing "testparm" in a terminal
[15:46] <Dr_willis> kennyyu,  steps for what?
[15:47] <Knez> sipior: "wlan0     No scan results"
[15:47] <kennyyu> Dr_willis: ah.. i thought you mean apart from starting '/etc/init.d/samba' i should start something else....
[15:47] <sipior> Knez: does this device require that firmware be placed in a particular directory? have you tried googling the card name with ubuntu?
[15:48] <Dr_willis> kennyyu,  check the logs in     :/var/log/samba    i just start the samba service. and thats it. :) it starts both as far as i know. ive never need to start them seperately
[15:48] <lifestream> Does anybody know... how I install evdev? (searched with apt-get and synaptic, doesnt seem to be there)
[15:48] <Dr_willis> !info samba-doc | kennyyu
[15:48] <Knez> sipior: i have been googling and searching the ubuntu forum for 2 days
[15:48] <Knez> Still nothing
[15:48] <Knez> This is how far i have come
[15:48] <Knez> It finds the card
[15:48] <hmw> kennyyu - sudo /etc/init.d/samba start - should start the daemon. I'd expect a wrong conf, if it wont start
[15:48] <Knez> But it wont find my network
[15:49] <Knez> sipior: Any ideas? ;)
[15:50] <sipior> Knez: you didn't answer my question about the firmware. have you looked into whether it needs to be in place?
[15:50] <Andry_WorkZ> may I enable anti-aliasing with Intel Graphic card?
[15:50] <hegde> hi all
[15:50] <Knez> How doyou mean?
[15:50] <hegde> i just installed intrepid since i wanted to work on qt4....i have slected all packages from synaptic like libqt-4* and qt4-*.............
[15:50] <kennyyu> hmw: i tried those...
[15:50] <hegde> everything is installed but i m not able to see the designer running
[15:50] <Knez> The wiki states that the firmware needs to be in /lib/firmware, and it is.
[15:50] <hegde> i m not able to see the designer itself
[15:50] <kennyyu> the log file seems saying nothing related
[15:50] <kreino> help, how to change synaptic server.. i made the change to OSCC but its not be.. still download from main server
[15:50] <hegde> can anyone help me  out of this please
[15:51] <kreino> help, how to change synaptic server.. i made the change to OSCC but its not be.. still download from main server?
[15:51] <kennyyu> and testparm reports OK
[15:51] <Knez> lspci returns this: 00:0b.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4303 802.11b Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[15:51] <sipior> Knez: and where did you get that file? and is it readable? what are its permissions?
[15:51] <hmw> kennyyu - i assume, you alredy apt-get installed the samba package? if it wont come up, there should be info in the log files
[15:51] <kennyyu> hmw: yes. already installed it.
[15:51] <__chris> quibbler no window manager on there, seems I can do it from /etc/cron.daily/apt
[15:51] <tyler_d1> I am trying to add a route to /etc/network/interfaces and have up route add -net 0.0.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 0.0.0.0 dev eth0... this does not work
[15:51] <Knez> sipior: downloaded it from a link in a guide
[15:52] <Knez> sipior, how do i check the permissions?
[15:52] <kennyyu> i started it to no avail. but only when i try to start it by 'sudo smbd'... can the smbclient command work finally....
[15:52] <hmw> kennyyu - open several terminals and watch the different log files with "tail -f FILENAME", you should be able to find the problem there.
[15:52] <sipior> Knez: "ls -l /lib/firmware/<filename>"
[15:52] <kennyyu> hmw: hmm, alright
[15:52] <quibbler> __chris: OK
[15:53] <DAVID5> hi
[15:53] <rockyrock> !mount
[15:53] <kennyyu> hmw: you mean the files in /var/log/samba? O_o
[15:53]  * kennyyu sees there are quite a few of them
[15:53] <Knez> sipior: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16360 2008-11-18 16:41 /lib/firmware/b43legacy/ucode2.fw
[15:53] <rockyrock> !home
[15:53] <hmw> kennyyu - i am not fully sure, what you need to look at. Use the samba log files and /var/log/syslog as also /var/log/messages
[15:53] <rockyrock> !swap
[15:54] <Knez> brb, dinner
[15:54] <hmw> kennyyu - when the tails are running, try starting samba.
[15:54] <sipior> Knez: i'm off in a few minutes, i'm afraid
[15:55] <josesito> hello all, I'm having a problem: everytime gnome starts gnome-do and xbindkeys won't work properly (it seems they won't read their config). Starting them from the console however, works quite well. Someone knows who can i fix that?
[15:56] <sipior> Knez: should ucode2.fw be sitting one directory further up? try making a symbolic link pointing to it -> "sudo ln -s /lib/firmware/b43legacy/ucode2.fw /lib/firmware/ucode2.fw"
[15:57] <kennyyu> hmw: understood...
[15:58] <strk> is /var/mail group 'man' for anyone else here ?
[15:58] <strk> I just noticed (don't use local mail often) -- I'm on 8.10
[15:59] <profanephobia> after installing xbindkeys i can no longer use ctrl+f to find things in nautilus, instead it would open xterm, i checked for any bindings for ctrl+f there was none i also removed xterm and restarted, still no luck
[15:59] <kreino> help, how to change synaptic server.. i made the change to OSCC but its not be.. still download from main server?
[15:59] <kennyyu> hmw: it's odd... only /var/log/samba/log.nmbd was being appended with some text when i start the service...
[15:59] <sipior> strk: no, should be group mail.
[15:59] <SGaboR> hy
[16:00] <kennyyu> hmw: other files simply doesn't change at all
[16:00] <hmw> kennyyu - thats not too strange, i think. nmbd does some name resolution thing (i think it's netbios over ip, but i am not 100% sure)
[16:00] <strk> sipior: yes, I figured that, just asking if it's a known bug as I'm pretty sure I didn't change that group myself
[16:00] <hmw> kennyyu - the other logs dont change?? hmm... let me check, be back in some minutes.
[16:00] <sipior> strk: not a bug known to me, and not one that has cropped on my system, so... :-)
[16:01] <kennyyu> hmw: ya, that's really was i was meaning... thanks.
[16:01] <kennyyu> :)
[16:01] <lifestream> In xorg, it says "configured mouse". Well, WHERE is it configured?? :-P
[16:01] <hmw> kennyyu - uhm... i got some "broken packages"... will take a little longer.
[16:02] <differentreality> hi :) could someone tell me how I can extract audio from an .flv or .mp4 file ? I want to get the songs from youtube in .mp3 format.  I have found in forums ways with ffmpeg but the filetype created is NOT audio mp3 and as a result my mobile phone cannot play it (it does play normally all other mp3s I got) thanks
[16:02] <kennyyu> hmw:  no problem :)
[16:02] <kennyyu> ;) thanks anyway
[16:02] <moke23> hello
[16:02] <profanephobia> after installing xbindkeys i can no longer use ctrl+f to find things in nautilus, instead it would open xterm, i checked for any bindings for ctrl+f there was none i also removed xterm and restarted, still no luck
[16:02] <josesito> differentreality: kcoolonline.com
[16:02] <moke23> is there any body
[16:03] <n8tuserf> differentreality-> umm thats not really ubuntu support is it?
[16:03] <josesito> hello all, I'm having a problem: everytime gnome starts gnome-do and xbindkeys won't work properly (it seems they won't read their config). Starting them from the console however, works quite well. Someone knows who can i fix that?
[16:03] <lifestream> differentreality,  soundconverter? ive done it before
[16:03] <josesito> moke23: yup
[16:03] <sipior> moke23: that's very philosophical!
[16:03] <moke23> come on
[16:03] <differentreality> n8tuserf,  well...  I am using ubuntu 8.10, I think it kind of is.. anyway where do you think I should ask ?
[16:04] <JackWinter> what is the best way of installing a 2.6.28 kernel on 8.10.  compile it yourself, or are there backports somewhere ?
[16:04] <moke23> where are you from?
[16:04] <moke23> kennyyu
[16:04] <n8tuserf> differentreality-> i dont know, but perhaps mythtv channel or multimedia channel if there are any..
[16:04] <kennyyu> moke23: oh?
[16:05] <OsamaK> Hello, Could someone please help me recording videos using my laptop-included webcam?
[16:05] <lifestream> Hmmmm why does installing gsreameamer-ffmeg  conflicts with gstreamer-lame ?? :P
[16:05] <Jack_Sparrow> !kernel > JackWinter
[16:05] <lifestream> In xorg, it says "configured mouse". That's very nice, but where the bunny is it configured?? :-P
[16:06] <erUSUL> lifestream: both provide a mp3 encoder filter ?
[16:06] <kennyyu> moke23: you mean my geographic location? i'm in Hong Kong
[16:06] <erUSUL> lifestream: for gstreamer that's it
[16:06] <huyongbao> Hello, I have one problem, How to config exim4 for Ubuntu8.04 ? Who could tell me
[16:06] <lifestream> erUSUL, oh so its okay if I install the ffmeg one, I see. i thought I'd lose mp3 support if I uninstalled lame. Thanks :)
[16:06] <n8tuserf> lifestream-> you are reading the label, you can label that "my own mouse with no tail"
[16:06] <josesito> hello all, I'm having a problem: everytime gnome starts gnome-do and xbindkeys won't work properly (it seems they won't read their config). Starting them from the console however, works quite well. Someone knows who can i fix that?
[16:07] <lifestream> n8tuserf,  *tilts head* Sorry, what? ^_^;;;;
[16:07] <Slart> is the gnome mouse properties the only settings I can change for the mouse in ubuntu? or are the advanced mouse properties hidden somewhere? can you use a different mouse driver?
[16:07] <moke23> 你好
[16:07] <n8tuserf> lifestream-> you asked "configured mouse" and see my response

[16:10] <Dr_willis> Andry_WorkZ,  it was enabled here by default here on my intel based systems.  theres the fonts dialog/settings to tweak the thing some.

[16:11] <kennyyu> hmw: ;) the problem is getting complex ?
[16:11] <hmw> kennyyu - looks like.
[16:11] <smokeytheman> when i try to apt-get install i get an error in dpkg
[16:11] <josesito> tempuser: maybe use wget?
[16:11] <hmw> Anyone else having "broken dependencies" when installing samba?
[16:11] <turkjeus> Jack_Sparrow, no I only have ubuntu running on that computer
[16:11] <Dimitar> Hi, can you help me updating ubuntu from 7.04 to 8.10 ?
[16:11] <Dr_willis> tempuser,  i tend to use 'wget' like josesito  suggests
[16:11] <hmw> kennyyu - my ubuntu is freshly installed. i shouldnt have deleted my fedora :(
[16:11] <kennyyu> hmw: i've got the problem in installing some other packages else
[16:11] <Andry_WorkZ> Dr_willis: im referring while using compiz, like the edges of the cube
[16:11] <Slart> !upgrade | Dimitar
[16:11] <kennyyu> ha
[16:12] <Jack_Sparrow> turkjeus Just wanted to make sure it was a real install we were working with
[16:12] <n8tuserf> Dimitar-> are you sure you want to update/upgrade? a fresh install of 8.10 would be easier..
[16:12] <kennyyu> hmw: what a pity
[16:12] <Dr_willis> Andry_WorkZ,  check the compiz 'ccsm' tool it has a bazillion options. :)
[16:12] <turkjeus> Jack_Sparrow, yes
[16:12] <moke23> ha
[16:12] <Andry_WorkZ> ok
[16:12] <moke23> i am back
[16:12] <Slart> Dimitar: check that link, see if that works... also consider reinstalling.. I can't remember if it was 7.04 that was a bit troublesome to update
[16:12] <turkjeus> Jack_Sparrow, The system was running fine
[16:12] <Dr_willis> hwm   when in doubt 'sudo apt-get update' 'sudo apt-get upgrade' and try to reinstall the package again
[16:13] <differentreality> soundconverter by the way works peeeeeeeeeeerfectly :)) thanks a lot!!!
[16:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Dimitar Fresh install would be worth the time
[16:13] <moke23> how can i connect my phone to my pc with Ubuntu
[16:13] <turkjeus> Jack_Sparrow, do you know a solution for this, I had been looking at google but can't find something usefull
[16:13] <Jack_Sparrow> turkjeus what was the grub error
[16:14] <tom17bombadil> When I receive mails via (evolution) witch inlude links to pdf-files, I see only the option to save them to disc. How can I open them directly?

[16:15] <jimcooncat> Your opinion please: apt-cacher, apt-cacher-ng, or something else?
[16:15] <lifestream> oops sorry
[16:15] <emm> test
[16:15] <n8tuserf> Dimitar-> if you have a livecd of the newer 8.10 you can install that freshly
[16:15] <kennyyu> moke23: had better google it perhaps? i didn't have tried it either ;)
[16:15] <smokeytheman> is there a way i can replace dpkg or something, reinstall it
[16:15] <Dimitar> Like I told, I recieve a busybox error
[16:16] <Dimitar> I don't recieve that kind of error with 7.04
[16:16] <Jack_Sparrow> turkjeus I am kinda busy but pastebin your fstab, the output from sudo fdisk -l and your grub/menu.lst
[16:16] <smokeytheman> or edit dpkg
[16:16] <n8tuserf> Dimitar-> even in the livecd? you get a busybox prompt?
[16:16] <Jack_Sparrow> !aptfix
[16:16] <erUSUL> smokeytheman: and you want to do that becouse...?
[16:16] <Dimitar> I got that error with 7.10, 8.04 and 8.10
[16:16] <Dimitar> yes in the live cd, it won't start
[16:16] <Dr_willis> lifestream,  i recall the gentoo-wiki pages often had some good detailed docs/config info on unusual mice and tweaking them ;) helped me with my 815mx
[16:16] <kennyyu> hmw: if you're not free, i can try to google it for a more while to see if i can find my answer... ;)
[16:17] <n8tuserf> smokeytheman-> i have not tried before, but try sudo apt-get reinstall dpkg
[16:17] <Computer> When I installed Ubuntu on my laptop and it recognized my Wireless card, asked me if I wanted to use non-free drivers, and installed them... Why did it ask me to reboot, instead of just restarting the network services?
[16:17] <blufade> how do i disable UTF-8 ?
[16:17] <lifestream> Dr_willis, I know... it's just I've been trying since *JULY* LOL. the things I find do not work. Archwiki, ubuntuwiki, debian wiki.. ugggh nothing works xD But I *know* that my mouse works, It has before, in Ubuntu
[16:17] <smokeytheman> erUSUL: i get an error on the first line of dpkg
[16:17] <n8tuserf> Dimitar-> that tells me your livecd burn is no good..
[16:17] <n8tuserf> !who | Dimitar
[16:17] <erUSUL> smokeytheman: the exact error would help diagnose the problem...
[16:18] <erUSUL> !details | smokeytheman
[16:18] <Dr_willis> lifestream,  arch  wiki pages also seem very good from what  read of them. :) but i dont have suich a mouse.. so no idea on  how to tweak them
[16:18] <hmw> kennyyu - good idea, i'll let you know, when i make progress
[16:18] <smokeytheman> n8tuserf: have you tried reinstall before? :p
[16:18] <kennyyu> hmw: :)
[16:18] <Dimitar> n8tuserf: Well, it was the official cd from ubuntu I recieved
[16:18] <smokeytheman> http://pastebin.com/m359f1cb8
[16:18] <n8tuserf> smokeytheman-> i told you i have not reinstalled a dpkg  package
[16:19] <n8tuserf> Dimitar-> still, it could have been a bad burn, they didnt have qA working that time :P
[16:19] <erUSUL> n8tuserf: smokeytheman apt uses dpkg to install if dpkg is broken apt does not work....
[16:19] <blufade> how can i disable UTF-8 ?
[16:19] <Viper62> Hello - would anyone know the best process for installing vmware server
[16:19] <n8tuserf> erUSUL-> thats what i figured.. dpkg is the baseline command
[16:19] <erUSUL> !vmware | Viper62
[16:20] <Joker_-_> Trying to setup a NO-MACHINE but it get stuck at "setting up the environment"
[16:20] <ZeroA4> blufade, why disable utf-8 ?
[16:20] <panko> how do i redirect bash stdout to gnome clipboard? thx
[16:21] <erUSUL> panko: i use xclip to redirect to Xserver clipboard (middle click to paste)
[16:21] <Dr_willis> panko,  i recall some console-cli-clipboard tool when i was browing the package manager the other day.. i forget its name.
[16:22] <blufade> ﻿ZeroA4, installed a program that gives me an error reporting that its incomapatible with UTF-8 and i need to disable it
[16:22] <Dr_willis> !info xclip
[16:22] <Dr_willis> !info xsel
[16:22] <ZeroA4> blufade, what program ?
[16:22] <blufade> pro engineer
[16:23] <smokeytheman> so is there any solution when dpkg is broken?
[16:23] <SlashLife> Morning. :)
[16:23] <SlashLife> How would I go to install packages from CLI on ubuntu?
[16:24] <smokeytheman> can i install using .deb packages?
[16:24] <Viper62> are !QEmu and !VitualBox comparable to vmware - was looking at the vmware as we are implementing that at our office
[16:24] <ZeroA4> blufade, does it helps ? http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-990227.html
[16:24] <Dr_willis> SlashLife,  sudo apt-get install whatever
[16:24] <Dr_willis> !apt-get | SlashLife
[16:24] <SlashLife> apt suffices, thanks. ;)
[16:24] <loki0347> Would anyone be willing to help with totem real quick?
[16:24] <Joker_-_> Viper62: virtual box is quite the same as vmware altho it doesnt support 64bits
[16:25] <erUSUL> smokeytheman: coulb be but you failde to give as the exact error message you are getting
[16:25] <smokeytheman> the error message is located in the pastebin http://pastebin.com/m359f1cb8
[16:25] <erUSUL> smokeytheman: i ask again what is the "exact" error msg use pastebin
[16:25] <Joker_-_> Viper62: I personally use vmware as virtual box was giving me errors but I used vbox for a few years
[16:26] <blufade> ﻿ZeroA4, tried te instructions in this page, http://humdi.net/tips/how-to-disable-utf-8-in-console ,  sadly didn't workout
[16:26] <NeoDragon> I am upgrading from a 160GB HD to a 500GB HD, is it possible to simply rsync my hardy /root partition from one HD to the other and have it still be able to boot from the new HD?
[16:26] <smokeytheman> i pasted it earlier but i forgot to highlight your name
[16:26] <ZeroA4> blufade, did you start the programa from the same terminal ?
[16:26] <loki0347> To anyone, Totem seems to be maximized and full screen at the same time check it out (http://php.uat.edu/~nicbernh/totem.png) Any ideas how to fix this?
[16:26] <smokeytheman> erUSL: http://pastebin.com/m359f1cb8
[16:26] <blufade> ya
[16:27] <blufade> ﻿ZeroA4, yes
[16:27] <erUSUL> smokeytheman: try « sudo cp -i /var/lib/dpkg/available-old  /var/lib/dpkg/available  »
[16:27] <ZeroA4> blufade, sorry then... i out of ideias
[16:27] <blufade> but isn't is supposed to a general thing  like changing language settings and stuff ?
[16:28] <blufade> ﻿ZeroA4UTF-8 is related to language setting , isn't it ?﻿﻿
[16:28] <linnuxxy> should i install the 64bit version of ubuntu for my core 2 duo laptop?
[16:28] <smokeytheman> erUSL: you fixed it, thanks
[16:28] <erUSUL> linnuxxy: yep
[16:29] <simplexio> Linuturk: if you have 4G ram
[16:29] <erUSUL> smokeytheman: no problem
[16:29] <_VIM_> does anyone know which vmware server version did *NOT* have the web intereface? I the new one to be very hard to use, the old one was easier
[16:29] <simplexio> linnuxxy: .. if you have 4G ram maybe if more then yes
[16:29] <_VIM_> find*
[16:29] <blufade> ﻿ZeroA4, how do i get root access other than through terminal ? maybe login via root account ?
[16:30] <linnuxxy> will the 64 bit give more performance?
[16:30] <Linuturk> bah
[16:31] <NeoDragon> I am upgrading from a 160GB HD to a 500GB HD, is it possible to simply rsync my hardy /root partition from one HD to the other and have it still be able to boot from the new HD?
[16:31] <simplexio> linnuxxy: not that much
[16:32] <_VIM_> NeoDragon: Clonezilla maybe... ?
[16:32] <cwillu> NeoDragon, almost
[16:32] <_VIM_> or Fog
[16:32] <cwillu> NeoBlaster, rsync, and then chroot to that drive, and run grub-install on the partition
[16:32] <madagascar27> hi I need MAJOR help i am in the alt installer in ubuntu and am trying to dual boot vista and ubuntu, I partitioned 50gb and want to put ubuntu on that space, but now during the installation, it says I need a swap space how do I create one during the installer???
[16:32] <_VIM_> haven't tried fog yet though, so you're on your own with that one...
[16:32] <bangalibabu> hello everyone
[16:33] <cwillu> madagascar27, leave a gb of the 50gb for the swap partition then
[16:33] <madagascar27> cwillu: how
[16:33] <simplexio> linnuxxy: before fact was that 64bit was annoying. nowdays 64bit is better but i dont know is it worth ot if you dont have 4G+ RAM
[16:33] <jbuncher> madagascar27:  just shrink your 50gb so you can have a gig or so of swap space
[16:33] <erUSUL> NeoDragon: if you then set up grub it should... (nmake sure you instruct rsync to skip "volatile" dirs like /dev/ /proc /sys...)
[16:33] <madagascar27> how
[16:33] <_VIM_> does anyone know which vmware server version did *NOT* have the web intereface? I find the new one to be very hard to use, the old one was easier
[16:34] <jbuncher> _VIM_:  what's the version of the "new" one you're using?
[16:34] <linnuxxy> simplexio: i have 2.5 GB... but i do alot of image processing
[16:34] <cwillu> madagascar27, any reason you can't use the desktop cd?  it has a point and click partitioner for this
[16:34] <arvind_khadri> madagascar27, you can resize the 50 gb partition...
[16:34] <NeoDragon> Thanks all that at least gives me some place to start.
[16:34] <cwillu> madagascar27, I know you can do it from the alt cd, but I don't know the exact instructions off-hand
[16:34] <linnuxxy> large maps and things like that
[16:35] <tuxflavrdwafls> hi! I am trying to get the Realtek ALC268 sound card to work.  all the levels appear to be up, and nothing is muted.  I found this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=878608 and seems to be helpful but this link deadends http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=24&PFid=24&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false#High%20Definition%20Audio%20Codecs.  any ideas?
[16:35] <cwillu> linnuxxy, there's a performance win, yes
[16:35] <madagascar27> okay I am in the installer for ubuntu right now it says partionin diska i have a pri/log 53.5 GB free space how can I make it have swap
[16:35] <_VIM_> jbuncher: it was 2.* i believe, it's been a few months since I last used it... Ran back to Vbox and never looked back, but lately having issues with vbox + Guest Tools , so I'm thinking bout trying Vmware again :/
[16:35] <NeoDragon> Thanks.
[16:35] <erUSUL> NeoDragon: may be easier using partimage from a livecd (but i've done what you describe 2-3 times using tar and worked)
[16:35] <cwillu> linnuxxy, not huge (depending on the workload), but its there
[16:35] <erUSUL> NeoDragon: allways from a livecd
[16:36] <jbuncher> _VIM_, you can always go back to vmware server 1.0.8, I use that without any sort of web interface
[16:36] <NeoDragon> I'll do that thanks.
[16:36] <_VIM_> jbuncher: is that for Ubuntu 8.04?
[16:36] <groundup> I am running ubuntu 10.08 and the speakers work but the front headphone jack does not. I am on a Gateway laptop. It worked in Hardy. Nothing is muted. Any suggestions?
[16:36] <simplexio> linnuxxy: answer is maybe.. image processing is one of those few areas where 64bit helps
[16:36] <loki0347> madagascar do you still need help?
[16:36] <cwillu> madagascar27, delete the partition, and make two partitions in the freed space.  Make one of them the 52.5 or whatever, and the other 1gb, and set the partition type of the 1gb to swap
[16:36] <jbuncher> madagascar27:  you need to split it into two partitions, one big one for you install, and one that's a few gigs for your swap
[16:36] <linnuxxy> thank you guys... it was very helpful
[16:36] <madagascar27> okay
[16:37] <jbuncher> _VIM_:  I don't know if it's in the repositories, I just started using the one dl'd from their site.  The ones in the repos were never up to date with the kernel modules, it became a big pain.
[16:37] <silentcrew> hello
[16:37] <loki0347> what's up silentcrew/
[16:37] <simplexio> linnuxxy: easiest way is install 64bit ans test it. if everything works then continue use it.
[16:37] <cwillu> jbuncher, kernel modules are handled by dkms now, which makes them far easier to deal with
[16:38] <_VIM_> jbuncher: i was under the impression Vmware wasnt in the repos anyways , but i'll check into 1.0.8 thanks :)
[16:38] <groundup> It also doesn't help that my internet connection is terrible because I am in a 3rd world country.
[16:38] <linnuxxy> simplexio... there is only amd64 version of ubuntu
[16:38] <linnuxxy> !!!
[16:38] <loki0347> @linnuxxy it'll work on 64bit intel
[16:38] <regeya> groundup, although I live in the united states, where I live has terrible internet access so I sympathize :-)
[16:38] <SlashLife> Argh! @ http://packages.debian.org/stable/web/php4-gd
[16:38] <simplexio> linnuxxy: amd64 is 64bit for all x86 processors.. its because amd was first
[16:38] <groundup> Yeah, I am from NJ but I am not home.
[16:38] <cwillu> linnuxxy, that's just distinguishing from a really old intel 64bit standard that nobody uses any more
[16:39] <linnuxxy> hmmm... i see... thanks again
[16:39] <cwillu> simplexio, uh, no, but theirs was the standard that caught on :p
[16:39] <loki0347> @cwillu CISC caught on too, it doesn't make it right.
[16:39] <jbuncher> _VIM_:  They had it in there for a while (feisty and a bit of gutsy I think, might have been in the "partner" or whatever repo).
[16:39] <simplexio> cwillu: far as i know it was first 32bit/64bit x86 processor
[16:40] <Sarkie> is there an xorg config util anywhere?
[16:40] <loki0347> @sarkie graphical or do you just want to reconfigure xorg?
[16:40] <erUSUL> Sarkie: try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg'
[16:40] <loki0347> @erUSUL what does the -phigh do?
[16:41] <cwillu> loki0347, sets the level of question you want to be bothered with
[16:41] <erUSUL> loki0347: make it automagical ;P i does not ask anything trys to guess
[16:41] <cwillu> loki0347, -plow on most packages will harass you with various inane questions, -phigh only checks the most critical questions and uses the defaults for everything else
[16:42] <cwillu> loki0347, for xserver-xorg, -phigh is appropriate for the majority of cases
[16:42] <loki0347> cwillu, ahh, I've seen it before. seen it before never looked at the man for the flag.
[16:42] <lifestream> Hey.... putting "evdev" as the mouse driver in xorg, makes my mouse not work at all. :-/   But the "mouse" driver does not make my media buttons work. What to do? :P
[16:42] <cwillu> loki0347, a dpkg-reconfigure -a -plow will have you answering questions for hours, literally
[16:43] <loki0347> cwillu, I'm tempted to try it now just to see how inane they are.
[16:43] <cwillu> loki0347, do it in a vm
[16:43] <profanephobia> whats that application called that pops up in nautilus when you press ctrl+f?
[16:43] <cwillu> loki0347, it's a good learning experience though
[16:43] <SlashLife> simplexio: Intel was first ... but AMDs 64 bit technilogy is compatible to i386
[16:44] <loki0347> cwillu, Current project is LFS
[16:44] <cwillu> loki0347, not in the bad sense, you'll gain an appreciation for how much stuff it can do
[16:44] <cwillu> lfs?
[16:44] <cwillu> lvm?
[16:44] <loki0347> cwillu, linux from scratch
[16:44] <Sarkie> I just want a gui config app, if not its fine :)
[16:44] <simplexio> SlashLife: that what i said
[16:44] <loki0347> @sarkie, when you config xorg it's usually command line. I don't know of any graphical versions.
[16:44] <cwillu> Sarkie, the ideal is that everything should be getting autoconfigured properly
[16:45] <Sarkie> np, its working now! :)
[16:45] <cwillu> Sarkie, there's supposed to be a more intricate graphical config utility coming for jaunty or jaunty+1, but most people never need that level of control
[16:45] <loki0347> cwillu, I've learned the beauty of vm's to play around with linux. I'm a terrible kernel killer.
[16:45] <erUSUL> SlashLife: AMD designed x86_64 ansd was the first to sen 64 x86_64 cpus. it deserves the credit of the architecture being named amd64
[16:45] <SlashLife> erUSUL: I never contradicted that.
[16:46] <cwillu> loki0347, kde has had a graphical xorg configurator for a while now
[16:46] <loki0347> cwillu, linux from scratch you literally compile all of linux from source starting with the kernel and building your own distro from the ground up.
[16:46] <erUSUL> cwillu: well hardy's displayconfig-gtk was very usefull it was zapped on intrepid becouse randr and newer xorg is "automatic" unfortunetly it fails for many people
[16:46] <loki0347> cwillu, I use gnome. kde seems heavy to me.=
[16:46] <cwillu> loki0347, I know what it is, I just didn't recognize the acronym
[16:46] <loki0347> cwillu, ahh sorry.
[16:47] <erUSUL> SlashLife: sorry the missunderstanding 17:44 < SlashLife> simplexio: Intel was first ...
[16:47] <cwillu> loki0347, just saying, now you know of one :p
[16:47] <SlashLife> erUSUL: Yet, IA64 has been around for quite some time.
[16:47] <Enjoy\Out> salve c'è qualcuno che mi puo' aiutare?
[16:47] <AdamDH> hi all, just put  ubuntu on a dell optiplex 740 desktop, seems the hdd is constantly clciking, sounds like the heads parking, tried using hdpram to stop power saving but does not work? rather annoying, any other ideas what would cause constant disk activity?nothing comes up in dmesg
[16:47] <erUSUL> !it | Enjoy\Out
[16:47] <SlashLife> Why did I write techn_i_logy btw?
[16:47] <loki0347> adamDH, drive failure?
[16:47] <SlashLife> Doesn't matter now, tho ... where do I get php4-gd from? *thinks*
[16:48] <AdamDH> brand new disk brand new system
[16:48] <loki0347> php4-gd?
[16:48] <hmw> AdamDH - looks like your drive is going to die. backup immediately and buy a new drive.
[16:48] <tuxflavrdwafls> Does anyone know where or how to get the driver for a HDA Intel sound card with a Realtek ALC268 chip?  I found this, http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/...Audio%20Codecs , but the link for linux is unavailable.
[16:48] <AdamDH> its a brand new 750 gig disk!
[16:48] <cwillu> AdamDH, how often?
[16:48] <loki0347> hmw, that's what I thought.
[16:48] <AdamDH> allmost every minuet
[16:48] <lifestream> Anyone know the name of the package I need to install to get the evdev driver?
[16:48] <cwillu> AdamDH, only once a minute or so?
[16:49] <erUSUL> AdamDH: if its new you can return it and ask for a new one...
[16:49] <AdamDH> yup when the system is idle not doing anything
[16:49] <cwillu> AdamDH, tracker maybe?
[16:49] <mefisto__> !intelhda | tuxflavrdwafls
[16:49] <AdamDH> tried the disk in a second ubuntu system no issues no clicking just in this dell desktop
[16:49] <hmw> AdamDH - in my 25 yrs expirience, i never had a HD with this symptom, that was NOT dieing
[16:49] <danbhfive_jaunty> lifestream: its an xserver package.  You can look it up at packages.ubuntu.com if you can't find it with tab completion
[16:50] <loki0347> Adamdh, if you used it in a different system doesn't that mean it's the mobo pulsing the drive for some reason?
[16:50] <AdamDH> I was planning to change out the disk but its suspect that its just that desktop fresh install thats causing it
[16:50] <hmw> AdamDH - thats really interesting.
[16:50] <cwillu> adamb_, one sec
[16:50] <cwillu> AdamDH, ^^^
[16:50] <AdamDH> I tried using hdpram to set power saving etc
[16:50] <lifestream> danbhfive_jaunty, Found it, sweet, thanks !
[16:51] <hmw> AdamDH - can you use another PC for testing the same OS with the same HD?
[16:51] <cwillu> AdamDH, install smartmontools, and then run smartctl -t short /dev/sda
[16:51] <AdamDH> all my systems are gentoo or intrepid, tried the hdd in two other desktops no issue, as that was my orginal guess, but for some reason it seems to just be these dell systems
[16:52] <cwillu> AdamDH, after 30 seconds or so, pastebin the output of smartctl --all /dev/sda
[16:52] <cwillu> AdamDH, substituting /dev/sda for the actual device name if applicable
[16:53] <cwillu> AdamDH, did you get all that?
[16:53] <AdamDH> yup just installing the package now and then will run smartctl -t short /dev/sda
[16:53] <cwillu> k
[16:54] <AdamDH> running that command it says please wait a min, then returned me back to the command prompt, never used smartmontools before
[16:54] <cwillu> AdamDH, yep
[16:55] <cwillu> AdamDH, in another few seconds, run the next line I gave you
[16:55] <cwillu> and pastebin the results
[16:55] <cwillu> AdamDH, we just told the drive itself to run a short selfcheck (which can be done concurrently with other access), and now we have to poll for its completion (although a short test should only take 30 seconds or so anyway)
[16:56] <AdamDH> there is the results http://www.pastebin.ca/1341173
[16:56] <cwillu> thanks
[16:57] <cwillu> AdamDH, okay, run the --all one one more time, the test wasn't quite done yet :p
[16:57] <cwillu> and repaste
[16:58] <cwillu> AdamDH, that drive has overheated before
[16:58] <AdamDH> http://www.pastebin.ca/1341176
[16:59] <AdamDH> where has it said that in the results I am trying to interpertiate it
[16:59] <cwillu> AdamDH, weird, it's still 90% done
[16:59] <cwillu> AdamDH, line 62 of the last pastebin
[17:00] <cwillu> AdamDH, value/worst/threshold, numbers below the threshold indicate a problem or a previous problem
[17:00] <oscar> hello?
[17:00] <cwillu> AdamDH, sorry, smartctl --all /dev/sda one more time, and pastebin, hopefully for the last time :p
[17:01] <AdamDH> says the disk has 7758 hours usage weird
[17:01] <cwillu> AdamDH, if I'm reading it right, the temperature got up to 71c at some point
[17:01] <AdamDH> yup just re ran it again will give it another go
[17:01] <jbuncher> cwillu:  How are you supposed to interpret value/worst/threshold?  Are higher numbers worse?
[17:01] <cwillu> AdamDH, 92 hours.  the raw value doesn't necesarily mean the obvious thing
[17:02] <need_help23> i still get freezes in 3d applications... who can help me?
[17:02] <cwillu> jbuncher, depends on the field, although you can presume if the worst is less than the value, then lower is worse
[17:02] <AdamDH> its possible this was a new disk I used to transfer data from a hdd failure in a server so the temp could have gotten high lots of rack gear about when I did that
[17:02] <tedb> Hi all -- I work at a midsize ISP and am thinking about how I can host an Ubuntu repo mirror for our customers.  Has anyone done that?
[17:02] <tedb> Hi all -- I work at a midsize ISP and am thinking about how I can host an Ubuntu repo mirror for our customers.  Has anyone done that?
[17:02] <jbuncher> cwillu:  so what about his Raw_Read_Error_Rate ?  Is that worse than it should be?
[17:02] <cwillu> jbuncher, AdamDH, the values are defined by the manufacturer, the only real standard is that the drive signals failure
[17:03] <cwillu> jbuncher, the threshold is a hint to that
[17:03] <jbuncher> cwillu:  just seems odd that the rate for errors has a low threshold, and a "worst" lower than the "value"
[17:03] <n8tuserf> tedb-> thats very nice of you, i dont know how to do it though, but i thank you anyways for hosting a repo
[17:03] <cwillu> jbuncher, it's not unusual to have some read errors, there's error correction and the like to make the remapping transpareent
[17:03] <tedb> thanks n8tuserf!
[17:04] <n8tuserf> tedb-> maybe try  #ubuntu-motu
[17:04] <AdamDH> seems to only get to 90%?
[17:04] <cwillu> jbuncher, man smartctl should give some insight to the madness :p
[17:04] <AdamDH> tedb> ask in ubuntu-motu
[17:04] <need_help23> i have graphics performance problems... plz help
[17:04] <tedb> thanks adam and n8r!
[17:04] <jbuncher> cwillu:  I'm just thinking that it's odd that the "error rate" has a "worst" that's lower than the "value".  You'd think that hte worst "error rate" would be the largest number (more errors/second or something)
[17:05] <odder> hm. Anybody know how to make that: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2005-June/038348.html ?
[17:05] <AdamDH> its only getting to 90%
[17:05] <AdamDH> ran it a fair few times now
[17:05] <AdamDH> going to wait a bit longer
[17:05] <cwillu> jbuncher, it's not an absolute number, it's normalized to be between 0 and 100, and it doesn't necessarily mean that a higher number == more errors
[17:06] <cwillu> AdamDH, you aren't rerunning -t short are you?
[17:06] <AdamDH> but still looking at that it does not explaon why my disk is constantly been accessed
[17:06] <AdamDH> yup
[17:06] <jbuncher> cwillu:  well that's just absurd then :P
[17:06] <cwillu> AdamDH, you are?
[17:06] <AdamDH> adamhorden@adam-desktop:~$ sudo smartctl -t short /dev/sda
[17:06] <AdamDH>  4  Short offline       Self-test routine in progress 90%      7758
[17:07] <cwillu> jbuncher, man smartctl, read the sections that talk about thresholds
[17:07] <odder> does anybody know how to make nautilus display icons only (without text/name/label/whatever) on your desktop?
[17:07] <cwillu> AdamDH, stop running that command
[17:07] <cwillu> AdamDH, run sudo smartctl --all /dev/sda
[17:07] <need_help23> someone help me please... i got graphics performance problems
[17:08] <cwillu> AdamDH, run smartctl --all /dev/sda as many times as you want :p
[17:08] <AdamDH> right re running that sudo smartctl --all /dev/sda gives the same output as I pasted before
[17:08] <cwillu> okay, that's odd, but interesting
[17:09] <hmw> cwillu AdamDH - might there be a problem in the controllers?
[17:09] <AdamDH> top shows the load is very low so I would expect the disk to do nothing
[17:09] <cwillu> AdamDH, give it ten minutes and check it one more time, might not be giving it enough time
[17:09] <joborociroboroqu> ddf
[17:10] <cwillu> hmw, I think I just didn't give it enough time so far
[17:10] <AdamDH> allmost sure it sounds like head parking tome now
[17:10] <AdamDH> *to me
[17:10] <blix_> Does anyone know why I can't get my Ubuntu resolution more than 800x600|?
[17:10] <blix_> I'm using Sun Virtual box as my host
[17:10] <hmw> cwillu - pls include my name in your next messages, i want to follow this
[17:11] <cwillu> k
[17:11] <AdamDH> with hdpram you can set the power saving, would that cause it? if its set to aggresavley
[17:11] <Dr_willis> AdamDH,  yes - it can cause it.
[17:12] <Dr_willis> AdamDH,  there was a big  'thing' about that issue a release or to ago - of ubuntu. :) some bugs in hard drives and bios's and  oepration systems can cause 'issues'
[17:12] <BleSS> hi! does anybody knows any good email provider (not free providers)?
[17:12] <cwillu> but only if there was activity on the drive since the last park (i.e, something gets written to the drive, then gets flushed out 5 seconds later, and then 15 seconds later the head gets parked, and then 15 seconds later, something _else_ gets written to the drive)
[17:13] <ktebit> I'm on Ubuntu 8.10 with Fluxbox.  Is there a docking application for suspend/hibernate for my laptop?  Running sudo pm-suspend in terminal is pain.
[17:13] <cwillu> ktebit, gnome-power-manager should run without dragging a whole lot in, although I can't guarentee that :p
[17:14] <cwillu> AdamDH, wanna give me another pastebin?  (apt-get install pastebinit might be useful to you) (hmw)
[17:14] <AdamDH> if I run sudo hdparm -B 254 /dev/sda I get HDIO_DRIVE_CMD failed: Input/output error that does not seem right
[17:15] <cwillu> AdamDH, (hmw) just implies that that value isn't in the supported range of the drive
[17:15] <jordan_> hello, may i ask a question?
[17:15] <AdamDH> still 90%?
[17:15] <cwillu> AdamDH, give me the pastebin anyway, I want to compare numbers
[17:16] <cwillu> a new pastebin that is
[17:16] <cwillu> (hmw) ^^^
[17:16] <cwillu> (you asked to be highlighted :p)
[17:16] <need_help23> is ActionParsnip1 somewhere?
[17:17] <cwillu> AdamDH, (hmw) there's been 3000 seek errors between two of those previous pastebins :(
[17:17] <jordan_> i have ubuntu 8.10 installed and i installed it at the default partition size(dualled with WinXP) is there a way i can make ubuntu bigger
[17:17] <AdamDH> http://www.pastebin.ca/1341187
[17:17] <hmw> cwillu AdamDH - doesnt that indicate a problem with the servos in the drive?
[17:18] <cwillu> hmw ( AdamDH ), yes, I think it might
[17:18] <madagascar27> i need help I installed ubuntu 8.10 using the alt installer everything went well until I loaded up ubuntu off grub it goes and makes the sound but then the screen turns black what do i do???
[17:19] <cwillu> hmw, new drive you said?  most of the drive failures you'd see in the first 2-3 years are actually in the first several hundred hours of use
[17:19] <cwillu> AdamDH, ^^^
[17:19] <need_help23> my system crashes when i enter 3D applications ... what shall i do ?
[17:19] <n8tuserf> madagascar27-> try to add  vga=971  on the grub to see if it makes a diff
[17:19] <hmw> cwillu - i think AdamDH said, the drive was quite new
[17:19] <madagascar27> n8tuserf: what
[17:19] <cwillu> AdamDH, I think you have a warranty claim/rma
[17:20] <Jack_Sparrow> cwillu unless it is seagate baracuda 7200, they are going out like crazy
[17:20] <hmw> cwillu AdamDH - the warranty claim would be my guess, too.
[17:20] <ifroog> Hi, Im new to gnome. have a couple of questions.
[17:20] <AdamDH> I will send the disk back then
[17:20] <n8tuserf> madagascar27-> at boot press esc and try to add  vga=971  on the grub to see if it makes a diff
[17:20] <ifroog> How do i see the user list in xchat?
[17:20] <AdamDH> I got it to get data off a server drive transfer it to a new array then the drive was surplus so will get it sent back
[17:20] <need_help23> is there someone who would help me?!
[17:20] <slashzul> is there a ubuntu package to record video from youtube and such?
[17:20] <hmw> cwillu AdamDH - only strange thing is, that the problems dont seem to occur in another pc / other os... thats really weird
[17:20] <cwillu> need_help23, nvidia?
[17:20] <jordan_> slash
[17:20] <jordan_> use vixy.net
[17:21] <jeeves> what programs do I need to install for Hugin?  I'm not getting the auto point generation
[17:21] <need_help23> cwillu: ati
[17:21] <AdamDH> I have to admit it was a couple a days ago when I did the test
[17:21] <jordan_> or u can install downloadhelper if u use FF 3 as an addon
[17:21] <cwillu> hmw, I'd bet the read errors would still be showing up in smartctl
[17:21] <cwillu> need_help23, sorry, don't know much about ati
[17:21] <Dr_willis> ifroog,  it may be 'resized' all the way to the right.. move the mouise to the right side and see it turns into  the resize arrows    <---> thing
[17:21] <madagascar27> n8tuserf: i see the grub screen I can choose ubuntu or vista where can I type it
[17:21] <AdamDH> thanks for all the help
[17:21] <Jack_Sparrow> slashzul there is  the youtube-dl script in the repos
[17:21] <Dr_willis> ifroog,  and theres a menu item to show/hide it.
[17:21] <need_help23> cwillu: maybe u have some general tips?
[17:21] <Jack_Sparrow> !find youtube
[17:21] <Sarkie> hi guys, I'm currently using this xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/d7cbcc2d9 with it actually working without a monitor cable plugged in. It started working with "vesa" driver, is it possible to improve the resolution?
[17:21] <cwillu> need_help23, does glxgears crash as well?
[17:22] <Jack_Sparrow> !info youtube-dl
[17:22] <n8tuserf> madagascar27-> select ubuntu, but you also have to press esc  i think once more to get the long kernel ...prompt
[17:22] <ifroog> Dr_willis: Yes, i do understand what you mean. I used to have it on the right when i was in kde3 with xchat installed.
[17:22] <need_help23> cwillu: sry... what? (i just installed ubuntu, so i'm noob)
[17:22] <cwillu> need_help23, if I had to guess, I'd think that you installed a driver from ati's website rather than through the repository, or something odd got mucked up in that vein
[17:22] <cwillu> need_help23, open a terminal and type glxgears
[17:23] <ifroog> Dr_willis: And there is no such option to show hide user list.
[17:23] <Dr_willis> ifroog,  ive seen where some times the settings get messed up. and its 'resized' all the way to the right where you just dont see it..  not sure what causes it
[17:23] <AdamDH> I am having no luck with drives lost about 4 in 2 weeks!
[17:23] <tuxflavrdwafls> is there a way to "upgrade" to opengeu 8.04 from ubuntu 8.04?
[17:23] <cwillu> jordan_, refrain from pm'ing people without asking them in-channel first
[17:23] <slashzul> thanks! youtube.dl and vixy.net work with both movies.yahoo and youtube!
[17:23] <cwillu> jordan_, I've gone days before noticing that somebody pm
[17:23] <Dr_willis> ifroog,  view -> user list   (Ctrl-F7)  it says here.. in xchat.. Not xchat-gnome
[17:23] <cwillu> ...pm'd me
[17:23] <need_help23> cwillu: glxgears doesn't crash
[17:23] <ifroog> when i do help about it says, xchat-gnome v0.24
[17:23] <jordan_> cwillu pm?
[17:23] <ifroog> Dr_willis:
[17:23] <ifroog> ^
[17:24] <Jack_Sparrow> !pm
[17:24] <cwillu> jordan_, you messaged me a question.  Don't do that :p
[17:24] <Dr_willis> ifroog,  that may be the issue then.. eeryone seems to HATE xchat-gnome.
[17:24] <cwillu> xchat-gnome isn't a great conversion of xchat.  Xchat itself already fits in quite nicely :p
[17:25] <jordan_> i have ubuntu 8.10 installed and i installed it at the default partition size(dualled with WinXP) is there a way i can make ubuntu bigger?
[17:25] <ifroog> Argg, ok ! yeah.. Let me get the orginal one and be right back. tx for solving my first issue. brb
[17:25] <ifroog> Dr_willis:
[17:25] <ktebit> I guess the quick question I had is: I see /lib/linux-sound-base/noALSA.modprobe.conf has my card listed with "blacklist" preceding it.  What is this blacklisting?
[17:25] <jordan_> youre a communist
[17:25] <cwillu> jordan_, I _think_ you can boot off the livecd and resize via the partition editor (system | administration | partition editor)
[17:25] <jordan_> and we're back in the 60's
[17:25] <ktebit> anyone?
[17:25] <n8tuserf> jordan_-> stop that please
[17:26] <regeya> !offtopic > jordan_
[17:26] <ktebit> I see /lib/linux-sound-base/noALSA.modprobe.conf has my card listed with "blacklist" preceding it.  What is this blacklisting?
[17:26] <lifestream> Hey for xmodmap I have pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 8 9 7 6 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 (But I only know what 1 2 3 do. How do I know which numbers I would use for the rest, and where? (man xmodmap is not very informative)
[17:26] <prodigel> hi all. HOw can I format a mmc memory card? I've seen the device created is named mmcblk0, fdisk knows it but mkdosfs doesn't accept it
[17:26] <cwillu> need_help23, what does crash, and does it crash immediately?
[17:26] <hmw> ktebit - afair blacklisting goes with udev and is used to exclude some modules from autoloading. needed in certain cases, where additional configuration is needed before udev activates stuff.
[17:27] <need_help231> cwillu: well... it does crash >.<
[17:27] <cwillu> prodigel, install gparted, and use that (it'll install into system | administration | partition editor)
[17:27] <cwillu> need_help23, glxgears?
[17:27] <need_help231> cwillu: yes
[17:27] <ktebit> what can that be?
[17:27] <prodigel> cwillu, gparted doesn't let me choose the memory card as a device
[17:27] <cwillu> oh, k
[17:28] <need_help231> cwillu: it crashes not immediately, but after several seconds
[17:28] <need_help231> cwillu: like the other 3d apps i tried
[17:28] <ktebit> what is that blacklist?
[17:29] <ktebit> I see /lib/linux-sound-base/noALSA.modprobe.conf has my card listed with "blacklist" preceding it.  What is this blacklisting?
[17:29] <cwillu> need_help23, sorry, I really have no idea then.  Try filing a bug on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/, giving a good title description.  It'll give you a list of possibly related bug after that, one of which may be the problem you're having, and may also include workarounds if its known
[17:30] <cwillu> need_help23, sorry I can't help more
[17:30] <need_help231> cwillu: k, but thanks anyway
[17:30] <cwillu> need_help23, at the very least, the 'good title description' will be useful here as well :)
[17:30] <need_help231> cwillu: :P
[17:30] <cwillu> need_help23, something like '3d apps crash after several seconds with an ati video card' :p
[17:30] <need_help231> cwillu: kk, thx

[17:33] <harel> Uninstalled openoffice2.4 in order to install openoffice3. installation is in /opt/openoffice3/programs/soffice which is not in the $PATH variable. What should be done?
[17:33] <[ifroog]> Now, My second question is how do i set two diff wallpapers on my dual screen. kde has that option right in desktop properties. How do i do the same in gnome?
[17:33] <mefisto__> lifestream: the man page does explain it
[17:33] <[ifroog]> Im on ubuntu 8.10.
[17:34] <Jack_Sparrow> dmgx Please ask in a programming channel.. not in ubuntu support
[17:34] <mfdavid> hi all. I have two screens (my lcd monitor and my TV). Im using xinerama. If I open Totem, move it to my secondary screen, and then set it to fullscreen, it works fine. But all the other aplications (games, VLC, etc) always force to fullscreen in the my primary LCD monitor... how can I force then to start on my secondary screen as fullscreen?
[17:34] <cwillu> [ifroog], an often requested feature, but there's nothing that does that in gnome yet :(
[17:34] <quentusrex> Does anyone know if a pci-e 16x v1 card will work in a pci-express 16x v2 motherboard?
[17:34] <lifestream> mefisto__,  really? All I found is that "the buttons numbers are in physical order" but I don't feel like busting my mouse open to figure out what pysical order they're in :P
[17:35] <cwillu> [ifroog], there's a bug/wishlist-item on launchpad though, and adding your voice may eventually get it fixed :p
[17:35] <dmgx> Jack_Sparrow, i didn't know about that chanel
[17:35] <Jack_Sparrow> ty
[17:35] <harel_>  Uninstalled openoffice2.4 in order to install openoffice3 (downloaded the .deb files in the ooffice package). installation is in /opt/openoffice3/programs/soffice which is not in the $PATH variable. What should be done?
[17:35] <suicidepills> can someone help me with a minor wireless issue, please?  I seem to lose my connection everyone once and awhile and I can't get it back until i restart my computer.
[17:35] <Jack_Sparrow> harel_ read the instructions for the unsupported software that you are trying to install
[17:36] <lifestream> suicidepills, what wifi card do you have? Do you know what driver? What security does the wifi have?
[17:36] <[ifroog]> cwillu, okies, ill wait for a month ! i guess i have to design twinview wallpapers before i use them.
[17:36] <funkyHat> harel_: add it to your path in .bashrc or don't worry that it's not in $PATH?
[17:36] <cwillu> [ifroog], yep :(
[17:36] <erUSUL> harel_: either add /opt/openoffice3/programs/soffice to your path or make a link to that file in /usr/local/bin/ for example (which it is in PATH by default)
[17:36] <diffra> harel_ it may not be the correct way, but i'd `sudo ln -s /opt/openoffice3/programs/soffice /usr/local/bin/soffice`

[17:37] <suicidepills> lifestream: i'm using an atheros built-in card (i have a Asus x59sl laptop) with whatever drivers ubuntu 8.10 installs by default.  the wifi has WEP encryption
[17:37] <mefisto__> lifestream: 1 is the left button, 2 is middle, 3 is right, 4 and 5 is up/down scroll etc. you can use xev (run it in terminal) to get details about other buttons your mouse may have
[17:37] <suicidepills> lifestream: it might also be worth noting that i can still see wireless networks when this happens.  i just can't seem to re-connect at that point

[17:41] <Jack_Sparrow> !mint
[17:41] <Pici> tuxflavrdwafls: Try asking in #opengeu
[17:42] <harel_> diffra, Yep, as expected. Any idea if there is a procedure to make those links?
[17:42] <lifestream> mefisto__,  thank god for scrollback :D  yes, the problem is I don't know what comes after the scroll buttons. is it volume up? down? next song?  :P
[17:42] <Jack_Sparrow> I need help from someone that has a dual boot system and a single hard drive..I know.. kinda specific..
[17:42] <hmw> Jack_Sparrow - ?? what do you need?
[17:42] <diffra> it's still the same command I gave originally.
[17:42] <lifestream> suicidepills, yes, I had that problem last week but with another card. there's lots of bug reports on launchpad, I'm just not sure if anyone is working on them :(
[17:43] <mefisto__> lifestream: you mean your mouse has extra buttons?
[17:43] <funkyHat> Jack_Sparrow: I used to have that setup... what's the problem?
[17:43] <diffra> `sudo ln -s /opt/openoffice3/programs/soffice /usr/local/bin/soffice`
[17:43] <Jack_Sparrow> hmw I have a script to create cd with /boot for when you want to reinstall windows..
[17:43] <harel_> diffra, Thanks.
[17:43] <diffra> harel_: np
[17:43] <lifestream> mefisto__,  oh, yes. Mouse works great, and I know media buttons work  because they have in the past (yes, in Ubuntu), Ubuntu autodetected everything ^___^ but now I've got to do it by hand, it's been moooonths and I'm sill trying to figure it out ;p
[17:44] <lifestream> I'm dumb
[17:44] <hmw> Jack_Sparrow - you want to use linux to restore the MBR and stuff, like only windows was installed?
[17:44] <suicidepills> lifestream: i'm pretty new to linux.  is there anything i can do to see if someone is working on them?  is there a place where i can report the bug to increase the chances of it being fixed?
[17:44] <Jack_Sparrow> hmw It saves a copy of your mbr and all important  system files
[17:44] <Raylz> how can i export my private pgp key in seahorse?
[17:44] <[ifroog]> My third question is, How when using qt/kde apps, can i use gtk them on it by default or how do i change kde apps theme from gnome for kde/qt apps eg:- konqueror, kopete etc.. ?
[17:44] <Jack_Sparrow> hwm please /join #Jack_Sparrow for a sec..
[17:44] <funkyHat> Raylz: just copy the key from ~/.gnupg
[17:45] <lifestream> suicidepills, here's one bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/295414 it's a LOT of information to take in LOL but sometimes people post a fix or a workaround! :
[17:45] <lifestream> :D
[17:45] <mefisto__> lifestream: so you're trying to remap keyboard buttons
[17:45] <Kubuser> Hi all, I'm running kubuntu 8.10 with the kde 4.2 packages from ppa experimental. Should I be able to move panel widgets around?
[17:45] <Raylz> funkyHat: ty
[17:45] <hmw> Jack_Sparrow - afaik you only need to restore the mbr (maybe the partition table's flags) and everything should be back to normal. i never tried to do this with linux, i always use the recovery shell from the win boot cd
[17:45] <hmw> Jack_Sparrow something like "fixmbr"
[17:45] <suicidepills> lifestream: alright, thanks man.  I really appreciate your help :)
[17:45] <Kubuser> sorry wrong channel really
[17:45] <Jack_Sparrow> hmw You are missing my point.  I have no current problem
[17:46] <mefisto__> lifestream: anyway, xev will tell you which buttons are which. start xev in a terminal, a small window will appear. use keys or mouse buttons/movements and details are reported in the terminal
[17:46] <hmw> Jack_Sparrow i think i understood that you dont have a current problem. you want to make something like your own distro/setup cd with the ability to restore the boot stuff, right?
[17:47] <KenBW22> i plan to install a fresh ubuntu on my dell mini - should i use the default canonical repo's or is there a reason to use Dell's?
[17:47] <suicidepills> lifestream: I don't have a problem with my wireless disconnecting nearly as often as the guy in the original bug report.  it only disconnects and stays disconnected until i restart my computer.  also, it happens randomly...sometimes not at all
[17:47] <harel> any idea what stalls the release of openoffice3?
[17:47] <suicidepills> lifestream: do you think my issue is related anyways?
[17:47] <vigo> Kubuser: I do not do KDE, but I think there is an unlock from panel to move around, but look at forums as it is experimental
[17:47] <Jack_Sparrow> hmw I have it completed yes. and it works fine.  I needed someone else to look it over and try it
[17:47] <lifestream> mefisto__,  thanks so much for the help, it's *really* apreciated lol. I've read wikis, etc etc, and I know about xev, I just dont know in what order the numbers would go in .xmodmap... sorry I'm .... a ... dummy x__X
[17:47] <diffra> harel: generally ubuntu waits until the next release to do major version upgrades.
[17:47] <mikeshollen> Can someone please help me setup my Mic in Hardy?
[17:48] <harel> diffra, Thanks.
[17:48] <Pici> harel: OOo3 was released way too late in the release cycle for it to be included in Intrepid.
[17:48] <hmw> Jack_Sparrow - aah! i might help, give me a download link. AFAIK, you only need to restore the MBR and maybe check the boot flag, win shoudl then boot up normally again. Seems almost trivial to me.
[17:48] <bartek_> hi
[17:48] <diffra> mikeshollen: maybe provide some more information?  What's working, what's not, what have you tried?
[17:48] <Jack_Sparrow> hmw http://pastebin.com/f1547267f
[17:49] <lifestream> suicidepills, yes I think so. You think you have to restard your computer, and I thought so too, but you dont. Did you say you knew what driver your card uses? If so, you'd go on a terminal, do sudo modprob YourDriverName   and your wifi *should* work again. That's what happened to me
[17:49] <harel> Pici, I was expecting it to enter as an upgrade once it is defined as stable enough (whatever that means).
[17:49] <Jack_Sparrow> hmw trivial.. agreed.  but to have a cd with the mbr already on it that lets you boot past the sda mbr and into your install bypassing the changes windows made during the install
[17:49] <lifestream> suicidepills, the 'modprob' will reload your wifi driver
[17:50] <suicidepills> lifestream: how can i find out which driver i'm using?
[17:50] <hmw> Jack_Sparrow - nice project! i have no idea, how booting from a cdrom works in detail. i suspect, a cdrom has its own MBR?
[17:50] <suicidepills> lifestream: i haven't messed with the drivers at all so it should be whatever comes default with ubuntu...
[17:50] <pogay> I use a usb-boot medium. my acer needs a particular monitor-frequency, which is not recognized automatically.  How can I "help" via start-up parameter to take the correct monitor, or xorg.conf?
[17:50] <rockyrock> hi guys, I want to mount a ext3 partition. Should i put "realtime" as an option in fstab?????
[17:51] <cwillu> rockyrock, relatime, not realtime
[17:51] <Jack_Sparrow> hmw that is what the eltorito  is
[17:51] <rockyrock> cwillu: typo!
[17:51] <mikeshollen> diffra: so far, I'm pretty lost.  I have an alienware laptop with an internal mic that worked when I used windows, but not since I've installed ubuntu.  I have gotten into the control panel to turn the mic on, and it's at full volume, but that's about it.  I'm not sure what else to do.
[17:51] <pogay> I' dont like to change the monitor option by hand, as sometimes I boot with another system.
[17:51] <rockyrock> cwillu: so should i put relatime??
[17:51] <diffra> mikeshollen: I'm assuming you've tried it and it doesn't work?
[17:51] <cwillu> rockyrock, it's sensible, yes
[17:52] <Jack_Sparrow> hmw run that script when you get a chance, burn the cd and reboot with the pc set to boot the cd drive and you should see blue grub menu to show you are running off the cd
[17:52] <hmw> Jack_Sparrow - may i PM you about this? i dont know enough to understand all of it and would like to ask some questions
[17:52] <lifestream> suicidepills,  it's ath-something ^^ I don't use the card so I'm not *sure*    What do you get when you type     lsmod | grep ath       in a terminal?
[17:52] <Jack_Sparrow> hmw /join #Jack_Sparrow
[17:52] <[ifroog]> My third question is, How when using qt/kde apps, can i use gtk them on it by default or how do i change kde apps theme from gnome for kde/qt apps eg:- konqueror, kopete etc.. ?
[17:52] <mikeshollen> diffra: I open up sound recorder, and it is set to "Record Input From: Master" and "Record as: Voice, Lossy (Speex Audio)" but it never seems to play back any sound
[17:52] <lifestream> suicidepills, BRB, I'm moving my laptop to another room
[17:52] <rockyrock> cwillu: but after i put the information about the new partitons in fstab sometimes the icons on the desktop disappear after a reboot
[17:53] <g33k_gir1> can anyone help me fix my screen? I need to add a higher resolution than whats available in the gnome display manager, and it seems that I can't see all the colours available to me, even though my xorg.conf is set to 24
[17:53] <rockyrock> cwillu: everything on the desktop disappears, except panels
[17:53] <foo> I addeded the gwibber sources, and I got this: W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net intrepid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY
[17:53] <diffra> input 'master' -- i think that's the master audio *output*
[17:53] <foo> tips?
[17:53] <diffra> could be wrong.
[17:53] <diffra> Maybe try installing audacity?  it has quite a few more options.
[17:54] <mikeshollen> diffra what is audacity
[17:54] <cwillu> rockyrock, next time, start with the actual problem you're having :p
[17:54] <cwillu> rockyrock, sounds like nautilus is crashing
[17:54] <rockyrock> cwillu: this is what i put in fstab: UUID=d355924a-4935-4325-81d4-e41c77521335 /media/Data           ext3    relatime        0       2
[17:54] <suicidepills> lifestream: alright cool
[17:54] <rockyrock> cwillu: this is only happened after i edited fstab
[17:54] <cwillu> rockyrock, you still need to include 'defaults'
[17:55] <thecookie> Hmm. I'm trying to install ubuntu 8.10. The cd boots up fine, I get to chose to install it. I gest stuck and thrown into BusyBox built-in shell (ash)
[17:55] <thecookie> What could be the problem?
[17:55] <KenBW22> i plan to install a fresh ubuntu on my dell mini - should i use the default canonical repo's or is there a reason to use Dell's?
[17:55] <diffra> it's another recording application, more aimed at musicians for recording music, but, the advantage is that it has more options and displays the waveform so you can see if it's actually recording anything.
[17:55] <rockyrock> cwillu: relatime,defaults???
[17:55] <pogay> thecookie: may be rootsystem not found
[17:55] <mikeshollen> diffra: cool, I'll give it a try
[17:56] <foo> how do I get a public key for a source?
[17:56] <cwillu> rockyrock, from my fstab:  UUID=(...) /media/alt ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro,user_xattr,relatime 0 1
[17:56] <thecookie> pogay: And how would I make the installer find it? :)
[17:56] <diffra> I don't think it'll magically make your mic work, but it'll at least give us something to work with :)
[17:56] <fde> KenBW22: Dell likely just mirrors the Ubuntu repos... then adds that DVD player amongst other things... it depends if you need the addons from them really
[17:56] <YlandeFaran> I was going to upgrade my BIOS, but: "motherboard_bios_ga-ep45-ud3r_f6.exe" .exe?
[17:56] <pogay> thecookie:  you can look with mount wether it is mountet under /root/yourroutsystem
[17:56] <fde> YlandeFaran: sure, hardware companies tend to assume Windoze
[17:56] <romain__> français?
[17:56] <cwillu> !fr
[17:57] <thecookie> pogay: rootfs on /
[17:57] <pogay> thecookie: one reason could be not the driver for the filesystem used
[17:57] <bouncing> With no CPU load and nothing going on, sometimes my box will seem to stop. If I'm typing, characters will lag for a split second, pulseaudio will stutter, etc... I don't have any indexing going on in the background or anything like that. Nothing unusual on top. Ideas?
[17:57] <rockyrock> cwillu: that line is for the filesystem
[17:57] <rockyrock> cwillu: i'm not sure if i should put all these options for the rest of the partitions
[17:57] <brunner> does the server ISO contain sound card drivers for the same cards as the desktop version?
[17:57] <thecookie> pogay: It's a empty new disk
[17:57] <cwillu> rockyrock, as I said, that's what I'm using for my /media/alt partition
[17:57] <KenBW22> fde: so it wont have software optimised for the dell mini?
[17:57] <cwillu> rockyrock, "man mount" documents them all
[17:58] <mikeshollen> diffra: audacity is installed
[17:58] <pogay> thecookie:  I had the case, when i started an existing installation
[17:58] <fde> KenBW22: it will, it just won't have the Dell add-ons - only one that comes to mind, as I said, was the DVD player + codecs
[17:59] <fde> KenBW22: everything dell provides there are alternatives to though, so its up to you.
[17:59] <cwillu> AdamDH, wanna give me another pastebin now (presuming you haven't rebooted)?  (hmw)
[17:59] <KenBW22> fde: no, i mean the dell repos will be a rehash of canonical's, as in they wont have any dell-specific builds of the apps?
[18:00] <fde> KenBW22: no, Dell contributes already to upstreams, so forking everything for their machines would be a pita
[18:00] <cooldduuudde> i found a major bug in ubuntu 8.10 related to data transfer rate to a usb flash drive
[18:00] <g33k_gir1> can anyone help me fix my screen? I need to add a higher resolution than what's available in the gnome display manager, and none of the FAQs and howtos I've found so far seem to work for Intrepid. Secondly,  it seems that I can't see all the colours available to me, even though my xorg.conf is set to 24
[18:00] <KenBW22> fde: oh, well thanks
[18:01] <cwillu> cooldduuudde, -> bugs.launchpad.nt
[18:01] <pogay> thecookie: usually you have an error-message, when you come to busybox
[18:01] <mikeshollen> diffra: it doesn't seem to be picking up any audio
[18:01] <cwillu> .net rather
[18:01] <brunner> does anyone here know if the server version of ubuntu includes sound card drivers?  I need to run asterisk, but I'd like to be able to use the local sound card for testing via alsa.
[18:01] <cooldduuudde> cwillu-> thanks
[18:01] <foo> I addeded the gwibber sources, and I got this: W: GPG error:  http://ppa.launchpad.net intrepid Release: The following signatures  couldn't be verified because the public key is not available:  NO_PUBKEY - any ideas on how to fix this?
[18:01] <fde> cooldduuudde: neat, check launchpad for the bug, and either add to an existing bug, or file a new one... also if you want to confirm the bug first... #ubuntu-bugs (I believe) might assist you
[18:01] <kyledr> how do i make it easy to play video to things like projectors or other monitors/tvs?
[18:01] <cwillu> brunner, yes it does I believe.  Worst case, the repositories are the same, so you could just install them
[18:02] <fde> kyledr: should be plug and play these days
[18:02] <beautifulsnow> suicidepills, hey I'm back
[18:02] <kyledr> fde: i'm not using gnome or anything fancy
[18:02] <brunner> cwillu: thanks. I was just afraid the kernel could have been compiled to disallow sound card modules
[18:02] <fde> kyledr: doesn't matter, its an xorg thing not gnome
[18:02] <kyledr> fde: so i doubt it is
[18:02] <kyledr> fde: oh ok. for my friend it didn't work and he also uses ubuntu, but i'll see
[18:02] <suicidepills> beautifulsnow: hey man
[18:02] <kyledr> fde: is restarting x necessary?
[18:03] <fde> kyledr: shouldn't be, no... what version of Ubuntu did your friend try?
[18:03] <beautifulsnow> suicidepills, oops was lifestream before hehe ^^
[18:03] <[ifroog]> My third question is, How when using qt/kde apps, can i use gtk them on it by default or how do i change kde apps theme from gnome for kde/qt apps eg:- konqueror, kopete etc.. ?
[18:03] <suicidepills> beautifulsnow: yeah i'm seeing ath9k and mac80211
[18:03] <suicidepills> i'm assuming it's ath9k?
[18:03] <thecookie> pogay: Yeah, No controller found.
[18:03] <kyledr> fde: probably intrepid, it's eeebuntu which is just ubuntu hacked to work better with the eee pc laptop by asus
[18:03] <fde> kyledr: I have done a lot of presentations for my local LUG using hardy and intrepid without issue via projectors
[18:04] <beautifulsnow> suicidepills, yup, when you get disconnected again, do  sudo modprobe ath9k     that;s just a workaround, but hey, better than nothing
[18:04] <Redragon> I noticed that msn messenger via pidgen does not connect. Is there a reason for that that I might not be aware of?
[18:04] <fde> kyledr: actually, its just Ubuntu will the netbook GUI afaik?
[18:04] <kyledr> fde: ok i'll check it out again. it could be a weirder issue cause we're using some goofy adapters to play to a TV
[18:04] <fde> kyledr: check /var/log/Xorg.0.log after pluging in the project if you have issues...
[18:05] <kyledr> fde: uh, i think it comes with non-free drivers standard so the wireless and other stuff works out of the box
[18:05] <kyledr> fde: ok i will,thanks
[18:05] <dkulchenko> Here's my story: I created 2 LVM PVs, put about 50GB of data on to them (this is all on a Live CD), then at some point Firefox froze, and I had to reboot. I boot back in, reinstall lvm2, it detects the volume group, but complains about not being able to find a physical volume by xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx UUID, which does not match any of the drives I have. It wasn't letting me mount anything, but was detecting the names of the LVs fine,
[18:05] <dkulchenko> so I used pvcreate to restore metadata with a forced UUID. Then, I get back my LVs, but they are reporting 0B free, and do not seem to have a filesystem on them! I don't have backup metadata, because I didn't know about it until I rebooted and lost it. What can I do to restore my data?
[18:05] <pogay> thecookie: you boot from a CD?  you can try options like failsafe
[18:05] <suicidepills> beautifulsnow: that works for me.  i was actually trying to do that before but i wasn't sure how to use modprobe to restart drivers...or what my driver was
[18:05] <fde> kyledr: Ubuntu comes with non-free drivers
[18:05] <KenBW22> why should gparted take ages to scan devices?
[18:05] <beautifulsnow> suicidepills, oh so you tried it right now?
[18:05] <kyledr> fde: well not some of the ones he needed. He would have had to use ndiswrapper and add other sources for packages
[18:06] <milkncat> Hi there
[18:06] <suicidepills> beautifulsnow: no, i haven't tried it yet 'cause my wireless is working currently
[18:07] <fde> dkulchenko: not a lot considering you didn't make back-ups... perhaps #ubuntu-server knows more? or check launchpad for known issues/work arounds?
[18:07] <suicidepills> beautifulsnow: i just needed to know how to fix it next time :)
[18:07] <thecookie> pogay: Yeah, I do. I'll try to see if there are any booting options
[18:07] <milkncat> here is a question, i've 3 disks, first 2 is raid, and third one is i bought today and will like to install ubuntu..will there be any problem with booting or mounting my raid ?
[18:07] <beautifulsnow> mefisto__,  so I guess I'll just do pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17  since my mouse has 17 buttons?  x-D
[18:07] <dkulchenko> fde: i'll do that, thanks
[18:07] <YlandeFaran> fde: Do I have to install windows to update my bios then?
[18:07] <beautifulsnow> suicidepills, hope it breaks soon so you can try it :P
[18:07] <davix> I am trying to install the latest ubuntu from the cd, but it recognises my IDE drives as SCSI and it doesnt let me partition them, it just gets stuck. i hope it didnt kill them also. how can I get passed this issue before installing?
[18:08] <fde> dkulchenko: LVM is kinda overkill for a desktop - not at all useful unless you plan on changing drives around a lot...
[18:08] <dkulchenko> fde: so i gathered. :)
[18:08] <suicidepills> beautifulsnow: lol yeah, it seems to happen really randomly so i have no idea when it'll happen again
[18:08] <paradoxgo> 1st time linux install here. Is there a fix for the touchpad delay?
[18:08] <fde> YlandeFaran: you can replace it with the Linux BIOS projects code... but I don't know of any way to install that stuff, no
[18:08] <paradoxgo> It looks like a pretty popular problem
[18:08] <suicidepills> beautifulsnow: but to be honest i kind of want it to break soon so i can make sure that it works
[18:08] <mikeshollen> What should my sound capture be set to in the sound control panel for my internal mic to work?
[18:08] <dkulchenko> fde: i just do quad and tri booting, and i'm installing different distros on different partitions often
[18:08] <yorky501> guys am having a problem with shutting down my system, when I hit shutdown the system restarts vice shutting down any ideas?
[18:09] <dkulchenko> yorky501: did you assemble the computer yourself?
[18:09] <foo> I addeded the gwibber sources, and I got this: W: GPG error:   http://ppa.launchpad.net intrepid Release: The following signatures   couldn't be verified because the public key is not available:   NO_PUBKEY - any ideas on how to fix this?
[18:09] <davix> I am trying to install the latest ubuntu from the cd, but it recognises my IDE drives as SCSI and it doesnt let me partition them, it just gets stuck. i hope it didnt kill them also. how can I get passed this issue before installing? (it shows as SD* instead of HD*) please halp.
[18:09] <thecookie> pogay: Safe graphics mode or use driver update cd?
[18:09] <beautifulsnow> suicidepills,  have you noticed that it likes to break when it's idle? mine did that. You could close everything to do with internet, and see if it breaks :p
[18:09] <fde> dkulchenko: LVM probably isn't really adding anything useful for you... using a regular FS would be much less error prone
[18:09] <ktebit> ?DCC SEND ff???f? 0 0 0
[18:09] <dkulchenko> fde: yes. i'm planning to recover data and returns to regular partitioning
[18:09] <yorky501> dkulchenko; no i didnt and its a laptop
[18:09] <krunk-|work> morning
[18:10] <benpicco> Hi, I got an Intel X3100 GPU in my laptop, after playing some fullscreen OpenGL games for a while, X freezes, even SysRQ or X-Zapping doesn't work, leaving the message '[mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop.
[18:10] <Redragon> Does anyone know why msn signin via pidgen does not work?
[18:10] <suicidepills> beautifulsnow: actually, yeah that does seem to have been the case
[18:10] <benpicco> ' in the xorg.0.log.olf
[18:10] <krunk-|work> I have exim4 installed on an unbuntu server, but I notice that the system does not have the 'mail' program. e.g. "mail -s 'foo' someone@bar.com < mail.txt"
[18:10] <krunk-|work> what package will provide this ability?
[18:10] <fde> Redragon: "signing" ?
[18:11] <cwillu> brunner, I use the -server kernel on my laptop on jaunty because it works around an accelerated graphics glitch.  I also used it briefly after the hardy release until some cfs patches landed, with the nvidia driver from -restricted :p
[18:11] <pogay> thecookie:  it it's a hw-recognition problem you may avoid some tests, for example with acpi, but I have no Idea what controler it misses...
[18:11] <yorky501> Redragon; it works for me
[18:11] <mefisto__> beautifulsnow: what?
[18:11] <cwillu> brunner, aka, don't worry :)
[18:11] <fde> Redragon: you mean signing in? cuz I'm on MSN via pidgin right now....
[18:11] <brunner> cwillu: thanks =] burning the ISO now.
[18:11] <Redragon> Odd, it won't sign in for me. Will continue to work with it and see what I can do.
[18:11] <mohan43u> krunk-|work: I think its mailx..
[18:11] <dkulchenko> yorky501: you're on ubuntu, right? go to System->Preferences->Power Management->General Tab and check the actions.
[18:11] <pogay> thecookie: may be the hard-disk controller, may be there is a module missing
[18:11] <krunk-|work> mohan43u: yes, that sounds right. thanks
[18:11] <thecookie> pogay: Yeah, I guessed. I tried searching google.. but I can't seem to find someone with the same problem + computer model. It's a shuttle sd37p2
[18:11] <suicidepills> beautifulsnow: i've also run into a more random crashing problem that occurs when my pc is idle
[18:12] <fde> Redragon: depending on the type of people you converse with on MSN, you may want to give aMSN a shot (voice and video chat etc etc)
[18:12] <yorky501> dkulchenko; i am on ubunutu, ill take a look now.
[18:12] <suicidepills> beautifulsnow: only happens like, 3 times a month, but when it locks up it's completely unresponsive
[18:12] <fde> Redragon: ugly interface, but all the annoying things MSN users insist on are supported
[18:12] <suicidepills> beautifulsnow: same sorta deal though.  only happens when it's idle
[18:12] <pogay> you can try for example puppy-linux or another bootable, to see wether it's a general problem
[18:13] <cwillu> suicidepills, older ibm?
[18:13] <beautifulsnow> mefisto__,  xmodmap mouse buttons.  So If I have 17  buttons it would just be pointer = 1 2 ...... etc.... 17   right? :P can't possibly have taken me that long to figure it out xD
[18:13] <milano> hello people, i need help with a little thing, bash_completion is not working with the sudo cmd it is without it though, any idea?
[18:13] <the_dark_warrio> Where are the firefox plugins located on Ubuntu?
[18:13] <doglino> why Linux uses / and windows uses \ ?
[18:13] <suicidepills> cwillu: nah, it's an asus laptop (x59sl)
[18:13] <cwillu> okay, nvm
[18:13] <yorky501> dkulchenko; everything looks good !
[18:13] <fde> the_dark_warrio: after installation, or the packaged plugins?
[18:13] <milano> any help please?
[18:13] <Redragon> I really like the single interface. I used trillian in windows. I was happy as a clam to find pidgen.
[18:13] <cumulus007> how can I force a kernel module to unload? rmmod says: module is in use, but I want to unload it
[18:13] <cwillu> doglino, windows made the break from tradition, I'm sure there's a good exposition of it on wikipedia
[18:13] <archman> guys, how do i connect to ad-hoc network but with cli?
[18:14] <yorky501> this problem seemed to appear from nowhere too
[18:14] <KenBW22> doglino: rephrase: why does Windows use \ when everyone else uses /
[18:14] <dkulchenko> yorky501: what laptop model do you have?
[18:14] <the_dark_warrio> fde: After installation. For example, where is libjavaplugin.so located
[18:14] <thecookie> pogay: I guess it can be. I did boot up gparted before at least. So there should be a driver for it
[18:14] <yorky501> sony vaio vgn n21m
[18:14] <doglino> hahaha good
[18:14] <fde> KenBW22: it has a lot to do with their SMB history...
[18:14] <HPIAddict> ok I have a question. I tried to change the mount point for a second hard drive. Now it sees the hard drive but cant mount it. And I can no longer change the mount location
[18:14] <pogay> thecookie:  ah gparted worked...
[18:15] <mikeshollen> Can anyone help me get my microphone working?
[18:15] <dkulchenko> yorky501: i've got no idea other than the power button might be hardwired to send the restart acpi signal, although that is very rare
[18:15] <beautifulsnow> suicidepills,  how far ago did you install ubuntu? do you have all the updates installed?
[18:15] <fde> the_dark_warrio: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras ... dpkg -L adobe-flashplugin
[18:15] <keystr0k> I seem to always get this wrong, so I am just going to ask... how can I:  recursively move contents of a folder into another folder overwriting any files that already exist (using terminal of course) ?
[18:15] <doglino> cwillu please send me a link to page that explains that
[18:15] <cwillu> doglino, sec
[18:15] <Nomeneiste> #elfnet
[18:15] <thecookie> pogay: I guess I have to do some sort of custon like usb installer to get stuff working?
[18:15] <looter> Isn't there a way to change the repeat rate of keys pressed?  My spacebar keeps like triple spacing even though I am not really holding it down, it just seems really sensitive
[18:15] <fde> the_dark_warrio: although your version may call it 'flashplugin-nonfree' ... they are not installed by default though, just install that meta package
[18:15] <the_dark_warrio> fde: Oh, found it
[18:15] <KenBW22> fde, doglino: "In CP/M and early MS-DOS the forward slash was used to introduce command-line options, unlike in Unix, where a space and hyphen ["-"] is used for this purpose. Unix paths were delimited with a forward slash; but when directories were introduced in MS-DOS 2 another character had to be chosen as a delimiter and the backslash was selected.[8]"
[18:15] <suicidepills> beautifulsnow: i installed 8.10 with Wubi (which could be the problem, yeah?) and i check and install updates religiously
[18:15] <yorky501> ok, cant be the problem it has been fine previously
[18:15] <milano> help please!, bash_completion is not working with sudo, it is without it though, what cuold be the problem?
[18:16] <pogay> thecookie:  you can install an ubuntu on a usb-Stick... and boot from there
[18:16] <hwilde> looter, system preference keyboard
[18:16] <yorky501> thanks anyway
[18:16] <cwillu> doglino, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backslash
[18:16] <beautifulsnow> suicidepills,  you say "when idle". Does that mean that Ubuntu hibernated or suspended?
[18:16] <doglino> cwillu hey, thanks
[18:16] <thecookie> pogay: Yeah, I meant.. I wold need the disk driver on it tho? Otherwise I would get the same problem
[18:16] <looter> thanks, i was looking more into like, like it was a config file or something.  Not used to all this graphical stuff in linux  ;0
[18:16] <doglino> KenBW22 thanks champ
[18:16] <fde> milano: what exactly do you want us to do about it? it simply doesn't work currently when using sudo  :/
[18:17] <cwillu> doglino, basically, early dos didn't have folders, and used / for parameters.  When the later versions added folders, they used \ instead of / to avoid ambiguous meanings
[18:17] <hwilde> looter, it gets written to a config file somewhere....
[18:17] <cwillu> ah yes, what he said :p
[18:17] <pogay> thecookie:  differnt drives have differnt drivers I guess,  but it's difficult to say
[18:17] <g33k_gir1> has anyone ever used xfix?
[18:17] <userneedinghelp_> hwilde? may we speak via private message?
[18:17] <looter> right, just not used to doing it graphically thanks again
[18:17] <milano> fde:  it was working sometime, now it is not, i need help o instructions
[18:17] <cwillu> doglino, http://blogs.msdn.com/larryosterman/archive/2005/06/24/432386.aspx is referenced by wikipedia, contains a bit more info
[18:17] <fde> milano: issue being that they are not sub commands of sudo... they are entirely new commands... so bash-completion gets confused... there is no work around.
[18:17] <pogay> g33k_gir1: yes yesterday, I creates a new xorg.config
[18:17] <hwilde> userneedinghelp_, what is your question please?
[18:18] <userneedinghelp_> I use ubuntu
[18:18] <Pici> milano: use a shell that supports completion properly, like zsh.
[18:18] <milano> fde: there is, you just dont know....
[18:18] <g33k_gir1> pogay: i get command not found :(
[18:18] <userneedinghelp_> and i dual vboot with Windows XP
[18:18] <hwilde> fde, my tab complete works with sudo.
[18:18] <fde> g33k_gir1: umm, everyone afaik...
[18:18] <userneedinghelp_> how can i increase the partition of ubuntu
[18:18] <thecookie> pogay: I remember an app that prepares the usb stick with a boot image.. somewhere on sourceforge.. you remember the name?
[18:18] <userneedinghelp_> even when its already installed
[18:18] <userneedinghelp_> i have 8.10
[18:18] <hwilde> userneedinghelp_, boot with the live cd, run the partition editor, resize the partition
[18:18] <pogay> g33k_gir1: o.k you can come to xfix, when starting the recovery line in grub
[18:18] <userneedinghelp_> i didnt use the live cd
[18:18] <fde> milano: sudo dpkg-reconfigure bash-completion ?
[18:18] <milano> sth with the bashrc file may be? i need somebody who knows some linux around here
[18:19] <userneedinghelp_> i used an image
[18:19] <milano> fde:  will try
[18:19] <Pici> !enter | userneedinghelp_
[18:19] <hwilde> milano, here is default .bashrc   http://pastebin.com/f3881d1fd
[18:19] <davix> *HELP* I am trying to install the latest ubuntu from the cd, but it recognises my IDE drives as SCSI and it doesnt let me partition them, it just gets stuck. i hope it didnt kill them also. how can I get passed this issue before installing? (it shows as SD* instead of HD*) please halp.
[18:19] <hwilde> userneedinghelp_, download the livecd then.
[18:20] <mikeshollen> I need some help setting up my Mic. I think the sound card is an nVidia CK804 but I can't figure out what the settings are to get it to record my voice.
[18:20] <cwillu> Daviey, sd* vs hd* is normal, for years now.  Your problems are unrelated to that snippet :p
[18:20] <hwilde> !mic > mikeshollen
[18:20] <pogay> davix:  i guess sda. today is not scsi anymore.
[18:20] <fde> davix: your self-diagnoses is wrong... it is supposed to show as SCSI, and is supposed to be sd?? now...
[18:20] <hwilde> mikeshollen, run alsamixer and make sure it's not muted (on capture)
[18:20] <mikeshollen> hwilde: it's not
[18:20] <fde> davix: based on your lack of further information, it is hard to assist you at this time.
[18:20] <cwillu> davix, (rather) sd* vs hd* is normal, for years now.  Your problems are unrelated to that snippet :p
[18:20] <hwilde> mikeshollen, sry that's as far as i know
[18:21] <davix> oh
[18:21] <cwillu> pogay, scsi still exists, but as far as sd/hd is concerned, that aspect is unified now
[18:21] <Jack_Sparrow> davix To get live cd to show your missing hard drive this often helps..At start or install press F6 and add all_generic_ide before the "--"
[18:21] <davix> ic fde and cwillu, thanks i'll try and install again, see if i can get some log of the error
[18:21] <davix> thanks!
[18:21] <fde> davix: kernel 2.6.16 made the switch to libata for all hard drives. only cdroms and the like are now defined as hd??
[18:21] <cumulus007> how can I force a kernel module to unload? rmmod says: module is in use, but I want to unload it
[18:21] <g33k_gir1> so, lets try this another way. i switched from Kubuntu to Ubuntu a while ago and some programmes are still using the KDE versions by default. Is it possible that something else is running my X, because changing xorg.conf does absolutely nothing to my screen resolution
[18:22] <Rencx> what i must do if Cinerrela somtimes stop working?
[18:22] <bdubnc> Hey guys, I am having a serious problem.  I am trying to configure a mainpine IQ express 8 port on Ubuntu 8.04.2 server.  For some reason the server will find the card, but not configure any com ports.  I have done everything that mainpine suggested, even called there tech support.  No Help.  Anyone who has worked with this please let me know!
[18:22] <cwillu> fde, most cd's are sd* now too
[18:22] <pogay> davix:  try gparted live-CD when you like to partition
[18:22] <Neostar2119> Need a bit of help here, I'm running Ubuntu on my Acer Extensa 4630Z and having some graphics issues. Anything 3D is very slow and choppy, and some 3D games will crash X. I gather my settings are not correct for my video card and need a helping hand to get things up to speed.
[18:22] <fde> davix: look on the other tty's, they should be telling you about the error (tty5 I believe is the major one?)
[18:22] <fde> cwillu: sr? actually... but sometimes they are still hd??
[18:22] <bdubnc> I am trying to find to see if I have to have this on a 64bit server or 32bit server
[18:22] <hbekel> cumulus007: you have to unload the module that uses your module first
[18:23] <hwilde> g33k_gir1, in terminal ps -ef | grep X     is it running gdm or kdm
[18:23] <Rencx> every time i make video in some moment Cinelerra freez, i cant even close windows, what can i do?
[18:23] <fde> cwillu: there is one other one that I forget, but yeah you're correct...
[18:23] <cwillu> fde, /dev/scd on mine actually :p
[18:23] <ph8> hi all, i've just bought a violet mir:ror and the provided 'alpha' software can't find the device - i don't suppose anyone by random chance here has come across the same issue?
[18:23] <cumulus007> hbekel: but when I try to unload that module, rmmod says that another module is using it
[18:23] <fde> cwillu: yeah, that's the other one! :)
[18:23] <cumulus007> how can I force a kernel module to unload? rmmod says: module is in use, but I want to unload it
[18:23] <cumulus007> woops
[18:23] <mikeshollen> when I run alsamixer, it only shows me the master volume, but it used to show a lot more, how can I see all my devices in alsamixer?
[18:23] <cumulus007> ERROR: Module saa7134 is in use by saa7134_alsa
[18:23] <g33k_gir1> hwilde: its gdm
[18:23] <cumulus007> ERROR: Module saa7134_alsa is in use
[18:24] <g33k_gir1> hwilde: so its not kde thats messign things up... hmmmm, back to the drawing board
[18:24] <fde> cumulus007: lsmod | grep <module> ... anything that depends on it has to be unloaded first
[18:24] <hbekel> cumulus007: you'll have to do it recursively
[18:24] <cumulus007> fde: already did that, I thik I need to unload v4l
[18:24] <fde> cumulus007: then do it?
[18:24] <cumulus007> fde: v4l2 is also in use
[18:24] <cumulus007> hbekel: how?
[18:24] <fde> cumulus007: v4l would be a dep of that module though (tv card right? )
[18:25] <Rencx> what i must do if Cinerrela somtimes stop working?
[18:25] <Rencx> every time i make video in some moment Cinelerra freez, i cant even close windows, what can i do?
[18:25] <hbekel> cumulus007: you've been told
[18:25] <hwilde> !fixres > g33k_gir1
[18:25] <fde> Rencx: Cinelerra isn't part of Ubuntu, so you're asking in the wrong place really
[18:25] <cumulus007> fde: it's a tv card, yes
[18:26] <Rencx> fde is there some video editing program what is made by ubuntu
[18:26] <cumulus007> no
[18:26] <bkw> When I try to boot ubuntu installation my external dvi screen shows a very strange color matrix when X starts, it's a nvidia card and maybe the support is missing by default when booting installation. Are there any option to boot the installation e.g. using another driver or in text mode?
[18:26] <cumulus007> bkw: try ctrl+alt+backspace when that happens
[18:26] <fde> Rencx: no, but pitivi and kino are both supported by Ubuntu (aka, they're in main)
[18:26] <Rencx> fde is there chanel cinelerra
[18:26] <fde> Rencx: out of those, I would recommend pitivi
[18:26] <fde> Rencx: no idea
[18:27] <Neostar2119> I'm running Ubuntu on my Acer Extensa 4630Z and having some graphics issues. Anything 3D is very slow and choppy, and some 3D games will crash X. I gather my settings are not correct for my video card and need a helping hand to get things up to speed.
[18:27] <Rencx> fde pitivi have lot of bugs?
[18:27] <paradoxgo> Touchpad delay when clicking =\ help?
[18:27] <fde> Rencx: not really... it isn't as powerful as cinelerra though
[18:28] <Rencx> fde can i edit sound apart form video
[18:28] <tsuna27> i tried installing ubuntu but it failed not I have Grub loading error 22 help please
[18:28] <cumulus007> hbekel: I don't understand this, lsmod says saa7134_alsa is not in use by another module, but I can't unload it because modprobe says it's in use
[18:28] <fde> bkw: on the first screen of the installer... you should see options along the bottom of the screen... there is a "safe video" option iir that is probably what you want... the installer does have nvidia support though
[18:28] <danbhfive_jaunty> tsuna27: did you install to your main harddrive?
[18:28] <cooldduuudde> i have realtek audio card but the sound bursts at high volumes
[18:28] <compguy1011> i have a hp mini netbook and installed ubuntu remix, it was fine for a week or so then now is so slow i have to keep restarting it, and sometimes it will boot correctly and others not. and waking from sleep it just sits with a blank screen, any ideas
[18:29] <fde> Rencx: not that I know of
[18:29] <compguy1011> or maybe a different ver/distro for the atom processor?
[18:29] <pogay> is it possible, to assigne the monitor frequenzy via boot option?
[18:29] <tsuna27> danbhfive_jaunty: no I made a partion
[18:29] <Raylz> when i install dosfstools on hardy i cant use dosfslabel
[18:29] <fde> compguy1011: does regular Ubuntu work? maybe the creator of Ubuntu Remix is dumb?
[18:30] <tsuna27> danbhfive_jaunty: no I made a partition**
[18:30] <limpc> hey.
[18:30] <limpc> anyone got filesystem tweaks?
[18:30] <limpc> trying to ls a dir with 1million+ inodes.. very slow
[18:30] <compguy1011> fde, haha maybe... no i havent but i thought with the reg install it would be too much for just a gig of ram and the atom processor no?
[18:30] <fde> !listkeys hdparm
[18:30]  * fde wishes he could remember how to search ubottu
[18:31] <danbhfive_jaunty> tsuna27: buts that partition is still on your main drive, right?
[18:31] <snak3> hi
[18:31] <tsuna27> danbhfive_jaunty: yes
[18:32] <fde> compguy1011: it would be fine... its not like Ubuntu Remix is a light weight alternative
[18:32] <jimcooncat> limpc: sure, move it to reiserfs. Of course, you'll never recover the time it takes to do the copy.
[18:32] <mikeshollen> whenever I run alsamixer, it only shows me the master volume.  How do I run it so I can see all my devices again?
[18:32] <snak3> maybe someone can help me. i want to install ubuntu 8.10 (x64) on a machine with 8gb of ram. how big should the swap partion be? (really 2*8gb as mentioned in the swapfaq?)
[18:32] <compguy1011> fde, ok, can i apt-get install it or neg?
[18:33] <extor> i have a problem with my keyboard where the shift key does not engage and neither does caps lock. however when i ssh to another box then shift starts working again..is there  a way to reset my terminal to normal values
[18:33] <fde> compguy1011: ahh, you're talking about the Ubuntu Netbook Remix? That would be lighter... but I don't know of any issues... there is a channel for netbook versions
[18:33] <fde> I think its just #ubuntu-netbook ?
[18:34] <compguy1011> nope
[18:35] <limpc> jimcooncat: hmm isnt that the binary-tree dir traversing algo?
[18:35] <tsuna27> does any1 here have ubuntu running on a sony vaio laptop?
[18:35] <limpc> well node traversing not dir
[18:35] <n8tuserf> tsuna27-> i have made it run, what is your issue?
[18:35] <teddy_> does apt-get update...apt-get upgrade...update and upgrade all my packages to the latest version(s)?
[18:36] <compguy1011> teddy_, yes it does
[18:36] <fde> compguy1011: seems its actually #ubuntu-mobile ...
[18:36] <n8tuserf> extor-> try tput sgr0  or tput reset
[18:36] <krunk-|work> hm, I can't find the feisty backports at http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ and I'm getting a 404 not found on the old backports repo
[18:36] <fde> !vaio
[18:36] <tsuna27> n8tuserf: I can not get ubuntu to run I tried wubi, then 8.10 cd and alt 8.04 and nothing works all I get is a black screen
[18:36] <fde> tsuna27: check the wiki, I think there is a page pertaining to vaio related issues.
[18:37] <Dillizar> !mobile
[18:37] <jimcooncat> limpc: if I understand you correctly, then no. IIRC it will spit out the filenames fast because it reads them from a single index.
[18:37] <n8tuserf> tsuna27-> if i recall i may have type  vga=791  on the grub ..try that

[18:38] <n8tuserf> tsuna27-> yes, press esc at boot and when you see the kernel line, before the end --  insert vga=791
[18:38] <lantjie_> acpi has something to do with your screen
[18:38] <mutantspew> hello, I've got a problem with the network manager and maybe some one can help me out with it... its saving the "system setting" and "Auto connect" but it wont save my password for wireless internet and it wont start up on log on...

[18:42] <tsuna27> n8tuserf: is it & vga=791 at the end of that long list
[18:42] <n8tuserf> tsuna27-> before  the end  --    note the two dashes
[18:42] <MBC> Sorry I need a link to pastey
[18:42] <MBC> Sorry I need a link to pastey
[18:42] <MBC> Sorry I need a link to pastey
[18:42] <fde> tsuna27: no, you just type that at the end of the list... the space separates
[18:42] <FloodBot1> MBC: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:42] <n8tuserf> fde they have dashes usually at the end..
[18:42] <fde> n8tuserf: never seen that
[18:43] <g33k_gir1> so, now, for the second screen problem: i can't see all colours on my screen. specifically, I can't see the palest grey. as a web-mistress, this is quite distressing. I thought it was the monitor, but its not, so it must be an ubuntu thing I haven't set right
[18:43]  * fde has had to write menu.lst files from scratch too
[18:44] <Andelkrag> Estudiando.
[18:44] <Andelkrag> Rayos. xD
[18:44] <fde> g33k_gir1: see the nvidia link given... could be vesa just isn't doing 24bit color (which is actually what other OS's call 32bit color, cuz 8 bits is just info)
[18:45] <lifestream> Does this xev output (just a few lines) say what xmodmap keycode is doing the action?

[18:45] <lantjie_> hey guys acpi is advandce configuration power interface its for thingslike hadrives. it is intendesd for laptops/notebooks, becuase pwer saving is vital at these
[18:46] <Slart> lantjie_: was that a question?
[18:46] <SlashLife> Mhh ... to be able to send mails through sendmail ... which package should be installed? postfix?
[18:47] <fde> lantjie_: I think he's trying to correct me... except I'm pretty sure the p actually stands for Powermanagement
[18:47] <dkulchenko> could I get an LVM/disk recovery guru join me on #lvm-recovery?
[18:47] <SlashLife> (Only sending them, this machine does not need to recieve mails.)
[18:47] <fde> Of course it does do things like spinning down hard drives when they're not in use etc... because that is something that drains power and isn't necessary
[18:48] <krunk-|work> I need to upgrade my server, I'm following this tutorial

[18:48] <krunk-|work> update--manager-core is installed, but this file does not exist: /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades
[18:48] <Slart> acpi = Advanced Configuration and Power Interface according to the internets
[18:48] <krunk-|work> fde: thanks
[18:48] <fde> krunk-|work: np... this is mostly for desktop stuff
[18:49] <tsuna27> still nothing I am trying to install but I get to this dark page and I am stuck
[18:49] <lifestream> Why doesn't xmodmap not show Volume Up, Down, Audio Next/Previous, even though those keys DO work?
[18:49] <terminal0> #gcompris
[18:49] <Slart> SlashLife: I'm a bit out of my comfort zone with this but I since noone else seems to answer I'll give it a try.. I think sendmail is enough if you just need to send mail..
[18:49] <pogay> how can I find out the monitor data?   I like a special monitor section for my acer monitor, with a particular frequenzy
[18:50] <fde> Slart: uhh... postfix *
[18:50] <SlashLife> Ok, I'll start off with sendmail-bin, then. :)
[18:50] <Fjordside> Hi, Im on 9.04 / how do I disable IPv6?

[18:50] <bn43> hi does anyone use smstools here?  I'd like to know what rights need to be assigned to the script for the eventhandler
[18:50] <snak3> someone here with an active raid1 system (via the intel ICH10R onboard raid controller) ?
[18:50] <terminal0> hello , someone is having problems with nvidia card after update the system??
[18:50] <fde> Slart: no one really uses sendmail anymore due to the insane amounts of security holes etc... postfix and others do use /usr/bin/sendmail for compat reasons though
[18:51] <oCean_> Fjordside: join #ubuntu+1 for jaunty
[18:51] <serhildan> suna
[18:51] <serhildan> kîmse varmî ?
[18:51] <terminal0> I am using intrepid
[18:51] <Slart> fde: oh.. SlashLife.. read what fde said.. before you go and do something I told you =)
[18:51] <SlashLife> Slart: Too late. :D
[18:52] <serhildan> a.q
[18:52] <SlashLife> fde: So postfix would be the preferred choice?
[18:52] <odder> two things 1) how to make nautilus display text only in window title? 2) how to make nautilus display icons only on desktop?
[18:52] <fde> SlashLife: you want to use postfix over sendmail... there are others too... apt-cache search mail-transport-agent for a list
[18:53] <SlashLife> Ok, but that means that I need to install postfix first. :)
[18:53] <bn43> hi does anyone use smstools here?  I'd like to know what rights need to be assigned to the script for the eventhandler
[18:54] <MrNatas> Can someone please help. I am new to linux and trying to upgrade Lmms
[18:54] <fde> SlashLife: yup... sendmail is one of the most exploited daemons around though, so avoid it
[18:54] <MrNatas> There is a version 0.4.2
[18:54] <MrNatas> but
[18:54] <MrNatas> apt-get upgrade
[18:54] <SlashLife> Should I uninstall sendmail again first? Oo
[18:55] <MrNatas> says 0.3 is the newest
[18:55] <fde> SlashLife: well, installing postfix should conflict sendmail... so it'll do that for you
[18:55] <lifestream> !enter | MrNatas
[18:55] <MrNatas> ok sorry
[18:55] <fde> SlashLife: doesn't make sense to have 10 mta's all trying to send all your mail  :P
[18:56] <SlashLife> Mails are something I never really figured out. :)
[18:56] <PokerFacePenguin> Why would my / filesystem keep growing when my /HOME is seperated?  Both DF and the Panel app for GNOME show 13G out of 15G used up on / partition.   My /var/log isn't but a few mb, there are not that many programs installed.  Most of the junk on this machine is located in /HOME.   /tmp on this machine doesn't show using much space.  No stuff in trash.  What gives?
[18:56] <MrNatas> so can anybody help with lmms?
[18:56] <bn43> MrNatas: hi the repositories(where u get ur updates from) don't necessarily have the latest, cutting edge version of software
[18:56] <SlashLife> They are so simple, yet the system became so complex ...
[18:56] <MrNatas> oh ok, so how do i update that?
[18:57] <fde> SlashLife: if you intend to use the mta just for personal mail... I'd recommend something like ssmtp ... easy set up, and uses your isp or something like gmail to actually send the mail... it just throws the mail at those sites...
[18:57] <oCean_> PokerFacePenguin: check /var/cache ?
[18:57] <Slart> PokerFacePenguin:  try playing around with "du" or the gui tool.. disk usage analyzer and see what is using the space
[18:57] <bn43> MrNatas: if you really need it, then u have to either get the deb packages of the software, or compile it yourself
[18:57] <fde> SlashLife: You can't send mail if you don't have your own registered domain... no ISP and the like will allow it to go through due to spammers ruining it for everyone else
[18:58] <PokerFacePenguin> oCean_: yes, /var isn't holding much at all
[18:58] <Emma-opej19>  #opej19
[18:58] <MrNatas> ye I tried, but I need Qt4 or something to compile it, but cant install that..
[18:58] <SlashLife> As I said: I don't need to recieve mail on this machine ... this is an intranet server running a CRM which allows to send newsletters ... The senders mail address belongs to the organization domain, which does not point to this machine, though.
[18:58] <opej19> opej
[18:58] <oCean_> PokerFacePenguin: ah. And maybe /opt? Once I found several vm's in /opt each a couple of GB. Sorry.. just guessing
[18:58] <SlashLife> Yeah, that's a bit of a problem. :/
[18:59] <terminal0> Someone can help me with my nvidia card??
[18:59] <lifestream> Why doesn't xmodmap not show Volume Up, Down, Audio Next/Previous, even though those keys DO work?
[18:59] <SlashLife> 'cause it is a dialup domain ... static IP, though
[18:59] <opej19> #opej19
[18:59] <bn43> MrNatas: what version ubuntu r u running?
[18:59] <MrNatas> um,.. hardy
[19:00] <fde> SlashLife: yeah, it should work fine within a LAN...
[19:00] <dkulchenko> !testdisk
[19:00] <PokerFacePenguin> oCean_: i will look, but this machine is a basic one that is mainly used for internet and digital camera stuff.  It should not be using 13G for /.  My intrepid install (fresh) only is using 3.7G
[19:00] <SlashLife> Nah, the newsletter is supposed to go out to the "customers".
[19:00] <Slart> !info testdisk
[19:01] <tsuna27> i tried installing ubuntu but it failed not I have Grub loading error 22 help please
[19:01] <mjfcolas> bonjour tout le monde
[19:01] <bn43> MrNatas: on the lmms website, they have binaries for ibex(8.10)
[19:01] <odder> !fr | mjfcolas
[19:01] <Slart> bonjour mjfcolas, this channel is english only
[19:01] <SlashLife> I'll just try to get it to work and if I fsck up, they just have to get their administrator to stop eating pizza all day.
[19:01] <IndyGunFreak> tsuna27: how did you try and install?
[19:01] <SlashLife> <- poor little dev
[19:01] <fde> SlashLife: lol... well, #ubuntu-server will likely be able to help more than this channel though
[19:02] <tsuna27> INdygunfreak: I tried to install ubuntu it failed, I installed grub now nothing works
[19:02] <oCean_> PokerFacePenguin: yeah, that's annoying. It might be a ill-placed logfile (e.g. not in /var/log) but still.. 13G is *way* to much
[19:02] <mjfcolas> odder sorry, i thought i was on -fr
[19:02] <MrNatas> bn43: ye but im so new to this, and every time I download a file or try to install i need to get more files first
[19:02] <SlashLife> They installed Ubuntu 7.10 ... not Ubuntu Server. :/
[19:02] <SlashLife> But that's still better than the rest of the machines ... which run SuSE 9.1
[19:02] <MrNatas> bn43: but thanks, ill check..
[19:02] <fde> SlashLife: you should get them to upgrade to one of the LTS releases... I don't even think 7.10 is still supported, or if it is, it won't be for much longer
[19:02] <IndyGunFreak> tsuna27: how did you try to reinstall grub
[19:02] <bn43> MrNatas: heh yeah - dependancies dependancies!
[19:03] <fde> SlashLife: well, its really not better considering support life cycles
[19:03] <tsuna27> INdygunfreak: I never tried to reinstall grub
[19:03] <MrNatas> bn43: ye thats what I mean, lol but anyways, cheerz, thanks..
[19:03] <IndyGunFreak> tsuna27: are you on the live cd now?
[19:03] <SlashLife> I am not going to do that to a remote machine ... I know my way around Linux a bit, as it is similar to FreeBSD (which I use for my own network structure) ... but I'm not going to take the responsibility for crashing a remote customer server. :)
[19:04] <SlashLife> Especially one in another country.
[19:04] <fde> SlashLife: should inform the admin that he's a moron, and should start testing 8.04 for upgrading.
[19:04] <bn43> cool - keep plugging away - u'll grow to love linux
[19:04] <lifestream> People, why don't my Latitude D820 fans work? My laptop is breaking a sweat, and I don't hear those fans. How do I make them work? :P
[19:04] <mikeshollen> Can anyone help me figure out why my Mic isn't recording?
[19:04] <tsuna27> INdygunfreak: no I took Out the live CD
[19:04] <SlashLife> Yes. Yes, he is.
[19:04] <IndyGunFreak> tsuna27: so how are you here now?
[19:04] <lifestream> mikeshollen,  on Sound Recorder? Or in other applications?
[19:04] <tsuna27> INdygunfreak: I am on another laptop
[19:04] <Jampiter> Hi
[19:05] <nemo> hey folks. I'm updating a Hardy machine to Ibex - I just got a notification that this was a first time running lilo - that's quite correct. the machine was using grub.  I'm a little worried.  This machine is 3000km away.
[19:05] <fde> SlashLife: tell him that 7.10 support will only continue for max of like 2 months... and that 8.04 is supported for 4 years more
[19:05] <IndyGunFreak> tsuna27: boot the live CD on the pc that doesn't work,
[19:05] <MaT-dg> can I run kdenlive (KDE video editor) on gnome?
[19:05] <Jampiter> How do I make the option to rotate the screen 90 degrees appear in the screen resolution menu?
[19:05] <mikeshollen> lifestream: it doesn't seem to be working period. I really wanna get it working in ventrilo, but the first step is just to get it working in the linux environment
[19:05] <fbccccv> !hello
[19:05] <mikeshollen> lifestream: i'll try whatever you want
[19:05] <SlashLife> fde: Err ... all these boxes are running PHP 4 ...
[19:05] <fde> MaT-dg: sure
[19:05] <nemo> Is there any reason Ibex might use lilo instead of grub? I suppose if I check in synaptic before rebooting I should only see one of the two boot loaders installed, right?
[19:05] <Jampiter> All that's in the drop down menu at the moment is "normal"
[19:05] <SlashLife> Which support was discontinued with a last security release last August.
[19:05] <Jampiter> Should I add something to xorg?
[19:06] <tsuna27> Indygunfreak: then what
[19:06] <fde> SlashLife: should take that into account while testing the LTS (Ubuntu 8.04) ... unless he wants to risk being hacked though, he should not stay with 7.10
[19:06] <MaT-dg> fde: I installed and it closes immediately after GUI is opened
[19:07] <fde> MaT-dg: run it on the CLI and tell us the output
[19:07] <IndyGunFreak> tsuna27: first, try steps 1-6 here, see if that installs grub properlly...  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows?action=show&redirect=RestoreGrub
[19:07] <Jampiter> Anyone?
[19:07] <fde> !anyone
[19:07] <MaT-dg> fde: hmm on cli it stays open..
[19:07] <SlashLife> That's the bad thing: Those are all network internal boxes, so they don't consider service security an issue.
[19:07] <fde> !patience | Jampiter
[19:07] <Jampiter> ...
[19:07]  * SlashLife needs to find a new job.
[19:07] <Dillizar> !LCARS

[19:08] <Jampiter> !screenrotation#
[19:08] <Jampiter> !screenrotation
[19:08] <fde> MaT-dg: strange... well, if you throw a & after the command, it will detach from the terminal so you can close it
[19:08] <Jampiter> !screenresolution
[19:08] <tsuna27> Indygunfreak: I can even get into ubuntu
[19:08] <tsuna27> Indygunfreak: I cant even get into ubuntu**
[19:08] <lifestream> mikeshollen,  Ok 1: what kind of mic do you have? 2: What Ubuntu do you have (version) and how long ago did you install it? 3: Are you using Pulseaudio? (If you don't know, you most likely are)
[19:08] <fde> Jampiter: System > Preferences > Screen Resolution ...
[19:08] <IndyGunFreak> tsuna27: thats why i said do it from the live cd
[19:09] <ttuttle> Hey, I'm trying to set up emacspeak with voxin (Oralux's package with the ViaVoice TTS engine) on intrepid.
[19:09] <Redragon> okay, I am obviously lame. I am beaten by pidgin. I can get all accounts to work except msn.
[19:09] <MaT-dg> fde: okay thx :)
[19:09] <Jampiter> fde: I know, but the option I want is not there
[19:09] <tsuna27> Indygunfreak: Iive CD does not work on this laptop
[19:09] <ttuttle> When I run emacspeak, it says "Process speaker not running."
[19:09] <fde> Jampiter: what option do you want?
[19:09] <IndyGunFreak> tsuna27: then how did you install?
[19:09] <fde> Redragon: you try aMSN yet like I told you?
[19:09] <Redragon> I cannot get it to connect to the server?
[19:09] <mikeshollen> lifestream: i have an internal mic which I think is an nvidia ck804, ubuntu hardy installed about a week ago, and I am using Pulseaudio
[19:09] <fde> Redragon: probably its an old version of Ubuntu without msn protocol 15 support
[19:09] <Redragon> amsn?
[19:10] <Redragon> no. I haven't.
[19:10] <Jampiter> fde: I want to be able to rotate the screen 90 degrees. However, only "Normal" is showing in the screen rotation drop down menu. How can I fix this?
[19:10] <tea_ovedose> hi, is there any applications to recover deleted files in ubuntu ?
[19:10] <ravenx> greets
[19:10] <tsuna27> Indygunfreak: I tried to install ubuntu but it failed, not I reboot my comp and nothing shows up expet the grub error 22
[19:10] <IndyGunFreak> tsuna27: ok, i thought you said you got ubuntu installed.
[19:11] <MaT-dg> fde: apparently the & doesn't detach it from terminal -> close terminal, kdenlive closes
[19:11] <ravenx> can anybody see what i am typing?
[19:11] <IndyGunFreak> tsuna27: grub is typically the last thing to install..  so if you're getting a grub error,t hat would indicate it made it that far.
[19:11] <speckz> Hi! I hope someone can help me. I'm not sure what this is called so I could not search for it. I need to configure an Ubuntu server to accept and send email from local LAN (different subnets) without having to provide login. Is it possible to configure this based on IPs and/or IP ranges?
[19:11] <fde> ravenx: no, sorry
[19:11] <ravenx> funny lol
[19:11] <ttuttle> ravenx: yes
[19:11] <Jampiter> fde: Do you know how?
[19:11] <Redragon> <digs his heels in> If others can access msn chat with pidgin so should I.
[19:11] <ravenx> cool just making sure this irc works
[19:12] <Redragon> grrrrrr
[19:12] <SlashLife> fde: Who is ravenx? I never saw him typing.
[19:12] <tsuna27> Indygunfreak: it installed but when ever I tried to get into ubuntu it died, I got a black screen
[19:12] <fde> Jampiter: no, sorry... never had to do that, so not familiar with it
[19:12] <Jampiter> fde: Oh, ok. Thanks anyway
[19:12] <Jampiter> Does anyone else have any ideas?
[19:12] <IndyGunFreak> tsuna27: you'er gonna have to ask someone else for help, you';re talking all oer yourself, fist you didn't get it installed, then you got it installed, thne the live cd doesn't work, but thats what you installed from.. if you can't get a straight answer to a question, you cannot expect help'
[19:13] <marcelkoopman> hi
[19:13] <g33k_gir1> !ati

[19:20] <qbrix> I'm looking for a spanish version of Ubuntu, do I just download the standard ISO from ubuntu.com ?
[19:20] <fde> qbrix: yes
[19:20] <tea_ovedose> fde: nope haven't installed it but when I search the name you refered doesn't seem like it's a recovery application
[19:20] <marcelkoopman> Thomas82, i dont know how to solve it, maybe upgrade and boot into a newer kernel
[19:20] <qbrix> fde: thx
[19:20] <fde> !es > qbrix
[19:20] <qbrix> ok
[19:20] <Thomas82> ok, I'll try it, Thanks for interest marcelkoopman :)
[19:21] <Dillizar> fde, are you sure what is the works that can happen :D if install the splash screen
[19:21] <Thomas82> cU
[19:21] <Bugs_BunnyBR> fde..I already install my nvidia card thousands of times..but this time happened something different..so if you may help I will by glad
[19:21] <guntbert> qbrix: yes, you download the standard version and choose the language during install
[19:21] <fde> tea_ovedose: e2fsprogs provide several ext tools... one of which is an undelete tool... but ok
[19:21] <marcelkoopman> Thomas82, hope you can fix it, these things always happen when you dont have time
[19:21] <qbrix> guntbert: great, thx for the info
[19:21] <tea_ovedose> fde:ext tools ? doesnt it support both types of ext ?
[19:22] <fde> Dillizar: they are simply entirely different implementations... you can just grab the images I guess and replace one from another theme... but without some hackery it wouldn't work
[19:22] <felicia> hello, sorry to bother everyone, but i have some hardware issues using intrepid.  im trying get my backlight brightness controls working on a vaio laptop.
[19:22] <fde> tea_ovedose: all 4 versions of ext... yes
[19:22] <tea_ovedose> fde: ty I will install it now and see if there's any luck
[19:23] <fde> tea_ovedose: as I said, once installed, type 'dpkg -L e2fsprogs | grep undelete' ... I forget the exact binary name
[19:23] <marcelkoopman> felicia, when adjusting the controls, what do you see when typing 'dmesg' in the console?
[19:23] <fde> felicia: what kind of video card?
[19:23] <marcelkoopman> felicia, does it show anything
[19:24] <felicia> i've got it working on command line using nvclock.  i just cant bind them to the keys

[19:25] <helper> how i can make them forever i don't want to config it everytime
[19:25] <andresj> oops
[19:25] <suicidepills> lifestream: hey man
[19:25] <felicia> marcelkoopman, i've got it working on command line, just cant bind them to the keys
[19:25] <andresj> hello, i had apt-cacher setup but now that I uninstalled it, apt can't retrieve any files, since it can't connect to apt-cacher. how do i configure apt to stop using apt-cacher?
[19:25] <Dillizar> How can i make a splash screen?
[19:26] <marcelkoopman> felicia, did you install hotkey-setup?
[19:26] <lifestream> suicidepills, heya whats up?
[19:26] <marcelkoopman> felicia, hotkey-setup - auto-configures laptop hotkeys
[19:26] <fde> andresj: System > Administration > Software Sources... change the Server option at the bottom of the first tab

[19:28] <[tla]> Hi.  I "apt-get install net-snmp" and the AES cipher is not supported in the snmpget etc commands for SNMPv3.  Do I need to install something else too or is AES support disabled for some reason?  Thx.
[19:28] <marcelkoopman> felicia, do these keys work in kde? gnome?
[19:28] <andresj> fde, lol it worked!! thank you :D why did i need to do that, though? if i already errased the file i created /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01proxy
[19:28] <fde> fabio_: he wants to rotate his screen 90 degrees
[19:28] <helper> anyone can help ?
[19:28] <fde> andresj: it likely commented out things in /etc/apt/sources.list ... Software Sources repopulated it
[19:29] <dmz> howdy everyone, i thought the xserver servers were compiled w/out the default xcreensaver (the old MIT style one with the grey screen & X)? it appears that it is still there :(
[19:29] <felicia> marcelkoopman, im sorry, i forgot to say that im in gnome, and i used nvclock to get the backlight working.  its just that the fn+f5/f6 keys never worked
[19:29] <nilo_> Hello everybody
[19:29] <[tla]> helper: did you check /etc/network/interfaces?
[19:29] <fde> andresj: otherwise it would keep arguing over where to get files etc... and the idea of apt-cacher (and apt-proxy) is to have the network get it from a specific machine rather than over the internet
[19:29] <andresj> fde hahaha lol no idea, but it worked! :P
[19:29] <marcelkoopman> felicia, maybe there is a chance that it works in kde, because its more like the applications need to use the key events
[19:29] <fabio_> fde: just rotate yourself
[19:30] <nilo_> someone know or work with typolight??
[19:30] <fde> fabio_: I was thinking the same, actually... but I don't think that counts as support  :P
[19:30] <DizzyDoo> Hello, I just installed Ubuntu Server for the first time, rebooted and the computer seems to hang at "Verifying DMI Pool Data", any ideas what's going on here?
 it's not added there
[19:30] <fabio_> but there is a way to do this
[19:30] <fabio_> Gnome -> Display Manager.
  @ terminal i put : ifconfig eth1:1 192.168.0.25 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255
[19:30] <helper> but on the /etc/network/interfaces not there
[19:31] <suicidepills> lifestream: not much.  in regards to your question from before: when i say idle, i just mean that i wasn't using it.  it wasn't suspended or anything
[19:31] <felicia> marcelkoopman, i really prefer to use gnome, been using it for a while.  its just this laptop and key bindings
[19:31] <fde> helper: so populate /etc/network/interfaces with that info? why would ifconfig automatically populate that stuff?
[19:31] <suicidepills> lifestream: i can't suspend 'cause i used the Wubi installer
[19:31] <fabio_> Jampiter: Gnome -> Preferences _> Display Manager
[19:31] <[tla]> helper: ifconfig will not add it, either use the gui interface management tool or add it yourself
[19:31] <helper> fde i am new @ ubuntu :)
[19:31] <marcelkoopman> felicia, look for gnome applications that use these keys
[19:31] <burkmat> DizzyDoo, Did you change your hardware setup recently?
[19:32] <helper> ah ok
[19:32] <Jampiter> fabio_: No Display manager option :/
[19:32] <DizzyDoo> burkmat, I only just built my server box.
[19:32] <[tla]> helper: you are adding a sub-interface?  ie you really mean to config eth1:1 and not just eth1 ?
[19:32] <fde> helper: its not that difficult... mostly its the same as ifconfig but each option is on a different line... just check out man interfaces
[19:32] <helper> so i'll put : auto eth1:1 then iface eth1:1 inet static  then address 192.168.0.25 netmask 255.255.255. 0 ?
[19:32] <felicia> fde, i've got the backlight working via command line using nvclock.  i just cant get the fn+f5 and f6 working
[19:32] <marcelkoopman> felicia, In Gnome default values are put into hotkey preferences for keyboard-shortcuts which then does sensible things with them such as launch an e-mail client or change the volume and show an on screen display or play/pause music.
[19:32] <fabio_> Jampiter: gnome-display-properties
[19:32] <fde> felicia: you were told to use hotkey-setup... did you try that?
[19:33] <felicia> fde, already had them installed
[19:33] <regeya> rude
[19:33] <helper> [tla]> i want eth1 and config eth1:1 2 networks so @ /etc/network/interfaces  i'll put : auto eth1:1 then iface eth1:1 inet static  then address 192.168.0.25 netmask 255.255.255. 0 ?
[19:33] <burkmat> DizzyDoo, Well, if I'm not completely mistaken the issue would most likely be with BIOS. Have you got the latest drivers and BIOS upgrades?
[19:34] <maximus007> is there an selinux specific channel for ubuntu?
[19:34] <Jampiter> fabio_: In the rotation drop down menu, only "Normal" Appears
[19:34] <Vague> Is it possible to actually cause a program to wait a few seconds before startup, in essence, is there a delay command I can put under the session preferences for a program?
[19:34] <lifestream> suicidepills,  hmmmm... I'm not sure about the crash. Not even sure if it's specific to Wubi! :( Sorry!
[19:34] <burkmat> !gimp > burkmat
[19:34] <fde> maximus007: I believe so... but search google for 'ubuntu irc channel list' ... there is a wiki page with them all
[19:34] <felicia> fde, unless theres a way to run it, i dont know what to do :(
[19:34] <[tla]> helper: yes.  you may also want to add gateway <ip>
[19:35] <suicidepills> lifestream: no, it's cool.  i've been googling around and it seems to be a known problem.  no one has said anything about wubi being a suspect though...
[19:35] <lifestream> Vague,  you could put something like:     sleep 5  & YourProgram      where 5 is in seconds. Can be any number in seconds that you want
[19:35] <suicidepills> lifestream: i just remember hearing that ntfsg (or whatever it's called) was kind of unstable
[19:35] <DizzyDoo> burkmat: To be honest, I have to idea how to install the latest drivers or upgrade the BIOS, this is my first time with Linux. Google is telling me that the HD could be the component at fault here.
[19:35] <felicia> marcelkoopman, i've tried that... dont have options for brightness changing there.  how does one add they're own?
[19:36] <fde> suicidepills: ntfs-3g is pretty stable these days, it just lacks some features due to lack of specs etc
[19:36] <Vague> lifestream, so...under session preferences, if the command is sudo firestarter  --start-hidden I would put sleep where?
[19:36] <suicidepills> fde: ah, well maybe it's not that then...
[19:36] <fde> Vague: this is for Gnome or KDE? you can use the entire command you'd usually type within the Session config tool.
[19:37] <fabio_> Jampiter: man xrandr
[19:37] <lifestream> Vague,  sleep 5 & sudo firestarter --start-hidden    (replace 5 with the number of seconds you want)
[19:37] <suicidepills> lifestream: is there a log i could check for errors?
[19:37] <Vague> fde, gnome
[19:37] <Vague> lifestream, great, thanks
[19:37] <fde> suicidepills: there are a few... all in /var/log/
[19:38] <fabio_> Jampiter: xrandr --rotate .... try it
[19:38] <burkmat> DizzyDoo, It could be, but is this a completely new rig that's never been tested before?
[19:38] <suicidepills> fde: what should i be looking for?
[19:38] <fde> suicidepills: probably /var/log/messages
[19:38] <Jampiter> fabio_: Ok
[19:38] <lifestream> suicidepills,     maybe   dmesg            Type dmesg in a terminal
[19:38] <DizzyDoo> burkmat: Never been tested before
[19:38] <fde> suicidepills: dmesg | grep -i ntfs probably
[19:38] <chubby> hello
[19:38] <danopia> hai
[19:39] <Gumby> Does anyone here know what specifies which config files are placed in a packages .conffile locate in /var/lib/dpkg/info/  ?  I am trying to figure this out so a package I am creating does not have a specific file overwritten during a package version upgrade.
[19:39] <chubby> i have an problem with ubuntu 8.10 and network manager within umts
[19:39] <chubby> where i can specify the device file?
[19:39] <suicidepills> fde: nothing comes up...
[19:39] <suicidepills> lifestream: what else should i be looking for?
[19:40] <fde> suicidepills: try grep -i ee instead? that will return all errors
[19:40] <lifestream> Does anyone know how to force my fans to work? My PC is overheating because the fans will not come on
[19:40] <pop79> hi!
[19:40] <fde> Gumby: you probably want #ubuntu-motu - this is desktop support
[19:40] <Jampiter> lifestream: Are you sure they work?
[19:41] <suicidepills> fde: there's a few things...can i paste bin 'em to you?
[19:41] <burkmat> DizzyDoo, Hmm... Annoying issue, no doubt, not very much info on it. Could try poking about BIOS and clearing the CMOS (maybe the MB will reconfigure itself properly), but to be honest I have no idea how to properly fix it. Not really a Linux issue either... So I don't really know.
[19:41] <africaman> hi all
[19:41] <Jampiter> lifestream: They should come on if the computer is getting that hot
[19:41] <Gumby> fde, I'll give it a shot thx
[19:41]  * burkmat mumbles something about quit-shortcuts being evil.
[19:41] <fde> Gumby: been a while, but I'm fairly sure those files are in debian/control within the src.deb though
[19:41] <DizzyDoo> thanks anyway burkmat, I'll try... something
[19:41] <lifestream> Jampiter,  yes they work, I had Windows 7 Beta installed last week (just for giggles, but it made me gag so I came back to Linux), and the fans were working
[19:42] <pop79> My ati xpress graphics 200 graphics card *always* flickers with anything going on to do with 3d. What should i do?
[19:42] <burkmat> DizzyDoo, Good luck. :)
[19:42] <fde> Gumby: #ubuntu-motu concentrates on assisting new package maintainers and the like, so they should be helpful though
[19:42] <lifestream> Jampiter, I've never really paid much attention to it, because my house is always cool, but now I'm in a really hot room, so it's not helping ;p
[19:42] <lifestream> suicidepills,  i'm not really sure :/ I dont know much when it comes to log files :P
[19:42] <Jampiter> lifestream: I'm afraid I can't help you there then. My advice would be to remove the side of the computer if it is a desktop, and clean the heatsink if it is a laptop
[19:42] <allen> evening
[19:43] <shingouz> when preseeding an install, is there any way to tell the install to use a specific hostname? if there is, where should i put the value for the hostname?

[19:43] <fde> pop79: are you using fglrx or radeon driver?
[19:43] <africaman> take screen shot dialog box keep pop up on my desktop how can i spot this can any one help me pls
[19:43] <pop79> fglrx, i think
[19:43] <suicidepills> lifestream: it's cool, i'm sure i'll get it figured out eventually
[19:43] <jeeez> if I create a new profile in firefox and delete private data and stuff, will data from my old profile be wiped out too?
[19:44] <cliebow> anyone have ldap running in intrepid?
[19:44] <lifestream> Jampiter,  I just had the whole motherboard replaced a couple weeks ago (its a laptop, and I had DELL replace my vid card) so it should have new heatsink. But it's not the processor fan that I'm worried about ^^ It's the fans on the back of the desktop ^^
[19:44] <pop79> fde, fglrx i think :)
[19:44] <fde> pop79: don't guess... cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -i fglrx return anything? how about lsmod | grep -i fglrx ?
[19:44] <africaman> take screen shot dialog box keep pop up on my desktop how can i spot this can any one help me pls
[19:44] <pop79> huh? fde
[19:44] <lifestream> jeeez, no, it wont, just the new one
[19:45] <jeeez> lifestream: thanks
[19:45] <fde> pop79: in Applications > Accessories > Terminal ... copy and paste those commands...
[19:45] <Jampiter> lifestream: I'm afraid I can't help you there :(
[19:45] <pop79> which ones fde?
[19:45] <lifestream> Jampiter, that's alright, thank you for trying :)
[19:45] <africaman> take screen shot dialog box keep pop up on my desktop how can i spot this can any one help me pls
[19:45] <Jampiter> lifestream: No problem.
[19:45] <fde> pop79: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -i fglrx and lsmod | grep -i fglrx
[19:46] <n8tuserf> africaman-> am sorry, you are getting a pop up?

[19:46] <africaman> yes n8tuserf
[19:47] <africaman> yes n8tuserf
[19:47] <africaman> take screen shot dialog box keep pop up on my desktop how can i spot this can any one help me pls
[19:47] <lifestream> Does anyone know of a composer that can be used in Gnome? (Other than Compiz)
[19:48] <n8tuserf> africaman-> you can try   ps -aux   and look for the id of that popup on the list,  then kill -15 pidofpopup
[19:48] <pop79> fde: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/119794/
[19:48] <Slart> lifestream: there is a very simple composite manager you can run just to get transparency and such I think
[19:48] <Slart> lifestream: search in synaptic for composite manager
[19:48] <n8tuserf> africaman-> btw this ubuntu right and not windows?
[19:48] <fde> lifestream: compositor you mean? only full featured ones are kwin, xfwm4 and compiz
[19:48] <Brack10> how can I find out the name of my ALSA device for use in the config file of several audio players?
[19:48] <lifestream> Slart, Yeah, I want something really really basic, just enough to use AWN ^_^; .. cool idea, will search in synaptic
[19:49] <n8tuserf> Brack10-> try alsaconfig
[19:49] <lifestream> fde yeah, compositor. brain fart :p
[19:49] <Slart> !info xcompmgr | lifestream
[19:49] <Rencx> How i can stop program what not respond?
[19:49] <n8tuserf> Brack10-> oops sorry thats wrong command
[19:49] <Brack10> you mean alsaconf
[19:49] <lifestream> fde,  do you know if I can use xfwm4 on Gnome? I absolutely love that compositor, but I don't really care for xfce
[19:49] <Brack10> you're right that's not it
[19:49] <pop79> Rencx, on gnome bottom right click the app and select quit
[19:49] <Slart> Rencx: xkill might be useful.. or kill/pkill
[19:49] <fde> pop79: these are not the commands I told you... you forget the grep part of the xorg log
[19:50] <pop79> oops
[19:50] <pop79> ill do it again :)
[19:50] <allen> lol - i thought it was busy in here, left time zone set to usa instead of UK
[19:50] <Slart> Brack10: cat /proc/asound/cards might give you some info
[19:50] <fde> lifestream: you can use all window managers on all desktops... gnome insists you set the WINDOW_MANAGER= variable in ~/.xsession though
[19:50] <Brack10> slart: Ok once I'm done reconfiguring my ALSA ;)
[19:50] <Rencx> pop79: Slart: i use Ubuntu and cinelerra freeze after some use
[19:51] <pop79> ok
[19:51] <lifestream> fde, sounds good, *does a little dance* TY
[19:51] <pop79> you do use gnome...
[19:51] <romain__> fr
[19:51] <fde> lifestream: to temporarily test... you can just do window-manager --replace (for instance xfwm4 --replace)
[19:51] <pop79> ...Rencx
[19:51] <Slart> !fr | romain__
[19:52] <Rencx> pop79: i'm new to ubuntu so i dont now how to kill and why it freeze
[19:52] <fde> lifestream: they all adhere to http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/wm-spec though
[19:53] <Slart> Rencx: pop79's suggestion is easy and works most of the time.. just right click on the application "button" in the window list..usually at the bottom of the screen... you'll get a small menu, select "close"
[19:53] <lifestream> fde, oh so happy ^^
[19:53] <fde> lifestream: heh  :)
[19:53] <Rencx> Slart: dont work for me
[19:54] <fde> pop79: so.... you gonna give me those commands output any time soon?
[19:54] <lifestream> fde, I used xfce for atleast a year, just for the compositor LOL but I dont like xfce
[19:54] <Slart> !doesntwork | Rencx
[19:54] <pop79> ok, if you right-click the gnome panel at the top (which is the horizontal bar containing applications) and click add to panel. look for force quit and when it appears, click it and click the app you want to freeze. simple :)
[19:54] <pop79> ...for Rencx
[19:54] <fabio_> !gnome | fabio_
[19:54] <pop79> fde, one minute...
[19:55] <fde> pop79: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -i fglrx && lsmod | grep -i fglrx <--- copy and paste everything between the first c and the last x, paste this output to your fav pastebin

[19:58] <Rencx> pop79: sory it just stands i even kill cinelerra throught system monitor but it is still here and always when i open it keeps freeze
[19:58] <Slart> CarlFK: it's a command that installs software to your system.. it needs root permissions to do that
[19:58] <CarlFK> I found dpkg --no-triggers but not sure how to use that with apt-get
[19:58] <Slart> CarlFK: or you mean the admin pw for the database?
[19:58] <pop79> What, is cinelerra?
[19:58] <CarlFK> Slart: er.. sudo aptget... right.
[19:59] <MamboKurt> i get Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[19:59] <pop79> Ill look it up rencx...
[19:59] <MamboKurt> i searched the web
[19:59] <Seta_> what's the command to remove hardware?
[19:59] <MamboKurt> but nothing there
[19:59] <Seta_> Example, I need to remove the HDA Intel so all sound goes to my Creative X-Fi
[19:59] <fde> pop79: that looks like it should be fine... hmm... does 'glxinfo | grep direct' return yes?
[19:59] <MamboKurt> anyone knows the trick?
[19:59] <pop79> MamboKurt, please, try to keep any sentences that you can say in one, in one!
[19:59] <fde> Seta_: Creative X-Fi doesn't work with Linux
[20:00] <L3Tum> I think I have a conflict between my network card and mouse...can anyone help?
[20:00] <evilbug> i'm thinking of making an ubuntu server and wondering if having a 32gb or 64gb ssd as the system drive and then have a 10/15000rpm secondary hdd with more capacity.
[20:00] <Seta_> yes it does. I installed the driver for it. However, I want to uninstall the HDA Intel
[20:00] <pop79> ill have looky fde...
[20:00] <africaman> n8tuserf >i had this bash: kill: pidofpopup: arguments must be process or job
[20:00] <evilbug> is a good idea. *
[20:00] <fde> Seta_: you can add 'blacklist snd-hda-intel' to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist though
[20:00] <pop79> fde: it returns "Yes"
[20:01] <dx00> hi everyone, can someone help mount a remote windows share so its read/write using fstab
[20:01] <Seta_> fde: will that remove it from the hardware list?
[20:01] <Slart> !mount | dx00
[20:01] <fde> pop79: then I am not sure why you would get flickers... and there is nothing we can do considering its proprietary
[20:01] <n8tuserf> africaman-> you have to find out the correct pid of the popup, it is listed when you do a   ps -aux    look at second column
[20:01] <Slart> !ntfs | dx00
[20:01] <Bobber> evilbug it's a good idea, but have you seen how fast embedded linux is?
[20:01] <dx00> i'm using cifs
[20:01] <pop79> Oh, sad, i might have to move from ubuntu, and ive used it for over a year...
[20:01] <MamboKurt> ok. i installed the atifglrx driver. now my get "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"." when i run glxinfo. my card is ATI Technologies Inc RS690M [Radeon X1200 Series. if somebody knows how to get it working, please tell me
[20:01] <pop79> :)
[20:01] <pop79> :(
[20:01] <evilbug> Bobber- embedded linux?
[20:01] <Slart> dx00: I think there are some examples at those links.. you might want to check !samba too
[20:01] <dx00> and i can view but i can't edit files
[20:02] <fde> Seta_: that will ensure it stops loading at boot... then just reboot so the creative is set as default sound device (else it would still be pci1 rather than pci0 not that that means anything to you probably)
[20:02] <marathon> hello i lost the caption in the windows
[20:02] <marathon> how to restore it?
[20:02] <pop79> dx00: try https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-au/2008-May/003565.html
[20:02] <fde> marathon: care to elaborate or throw a pic to picpaste.com ?
[20:02] <marathon> when i open firefox i have the menus but not the caption to move the window
[20:03] <fde> marathon: what caption?
[20:03] <Rencx> Does anyone now how i can take snapshot from my laptop camera?
[20:03]  * Slart thinks marathon has lost his window-decorations
[20:03] <marathon> yes
[20:03] <Bobber> evilbug yeah, linux boots up in less than half a second
[20:03] <dx00> thx, ill check those out\
[20:03] <Seta_> fde: also, would you know why #ubuntu forwards me to ubuntu-topic or whatever it is..? like..another room? it claims I have connection troubles, but changing my nickname fixes it.
[20:03] <marathon> how to restore the decoration?
[20:03] <Slart> Rencx: tried "cheese"?
[20:03] <fabio_> metacity
[20:03] <fabio_> marathon: metacity
[20:03] <marathon> i have compiz
[20:03] <evilbug> Bobber- sounds great :)
[20:03] <shingouz> or marathon has some problems with his window manager
[20:03] <Slart> Seta_: which room were you forwarded too?
[20:03] <regeya> yippee
[20:03]  * pop79 kindly and patiently waits for any problems that he can fix to come up :)
[20:03] <marathon> ciao fabio
[20:04] <marathon> i think is window manager
[20:04] <Dillizar> where can i set the witch programs to be run on starting
[20:04]  * hlm thanks pop79
[20:04] <Seta_> fde: ubuntu-topic I think it was..let me check
[20:04] <MamboKurt> pop79: no ideas?
[20:04] <marathon> what to kill and restart?=
[20:04] <Slart> !boot | Dillizar
[20:04] <pop79> huh?
[20:04] <pop79> hlm, what do you mean?
[20:04] <MamboKurt> to my issue about the graphics cards
[20:04] <fde> Seta_: it is due to the room settings... means max users was triggered
[20:04] <pop79> oh...
[20:04] <bastid_raZor> !session > Dillizar .. here
[20:04] <marathon> ah no i haven't lost the decoration
[20:04] <pop79> MamboKurt, what is you're problem?
[20:05] <hlm> pop79, you said you were waiting for any problems to come up that you can help with
[20:05] <Seta_> fde: then why doesn't it just reject other users from entering?
[20:05] <marathon> the decoration is out of the window
[20:05] <Rencx> Slart: will try it now
[20:05] <pop79> oh...
[20:05] <fde> Seta_: some channels trigger that if you're not identified too, but this isn't one of those
[20:05] <marathon> when i move the cube i can see the decoration
[20:05] <MamboKurt> when i try glxinfo i get "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"."
[20:05] <fde> Seta_: due to the topic in that channel... it informs you of what happened... and who knows, you might still get help in there
[20:06] <pop79> MamboKurt, is your card Ati?
[20:06] <MamboKurt> yes
[20:06] <Rencx> Slard: can ubutu set 2 screens what is not miror but extend?
[20:06] <hlm> !themes
[20:06] <fabio_> MamboKurt, is your card Ati (sh*it)?

[20:06] <africaman> wat is the comman for fomating
[20:07] <bastid_raZor> Dillizar; glad i could help.
[20:07] <fde> marathon: hit alt-f7 and move it down?
[20:07] <Slart> Rencx: I think there are some other tools available too.. I cant remember what they are called though
[20:07] <hlm> ubottu, I will always know your a bot ;-)
[20:07] <Slart> africaman: mkfs normally
[20:07] <Dillizar> !cairo
[20:07] <pop79> MamboKurt: try going into Add/Remove, Search for ati, and there should be a control panel or something, click the tick, and download and install...
[20:07] <fde> Dillizar: /msg the bot
[20:07] <pop79> try that first MamboKurt, ill give you more steps after
[20:07] <Dillizar> ex. pls fde
[20:07] <evilbug> Bobber- what ssd brand(s) should i go with?
[20:08] <fde> Dillizar: just /msg ubottu cairo for instance...
[20:08] <MamboKurt> pop79: ok
[20:08] <Seta_> fde: ah...crap, how do I edit the blacklist file again?
[20:08] <pop79> MamboKurt, it's called, Catalyst Control center
[20:08] <fde> Dillizar: else you add too much noise to the channel, which can't be going on in a channel this large
[20:09] <Dillizar> k fde now i know what you were trying to say :)
[20:09] <fde> Seta_: echo "blacklist snd-hda-intel" | sudo tee -i /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[20:10] <lupine_85> question - will Bad Things happen if I delete certain .list files in /var/lib/dpkg/info ?
[20:10] <dx00> //Server/share /file cifs iocharset=utf8,uid=1000,noperm,file_mode=0666,dir_mode=0777 0 0
[20:10] <dx00> thats my fstab line
[20:10] <dx00> still cant write to it
[20:10] <dx00> but it mounts and i can read files
[20:10] <fde> Seta_: to make sure... cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and look at the last line  :)
[20:10] <brunner> I just installed Ubuntu server, and I tried installing X using apt, but when I type "startx" at the command line, it dies with the error, "No valid FontPath count be found"
[20:10] <lupine_85> I've had a spot of filesystem corruption leaving a bunch of them needing to be replaced, but dpkg won't work due to the files being the wrong format
[20:10] <fde> brunner: how did you install X?
[20:11] <vigo_> lupine_85: If they do, that is what backups are for.
[20:11] <hlm> fde, brunner did it through apt
[20:11] <Seta_> fde: would it be normal fo rit ot be the only line?
[20:11] <prince_jammys> Seta_: tee -a, or you will truncate the file
[20:11] <fde> hlm: I gathered that, I am more meaning the command
[20:11] <hlm> fde, sorry :(
[20:12] <Seta_> fde: truncate?
[20:12] <Ademan> can anyone tell me why I have fglrx-modaliases on an ati-less system?
[20:12] <lupine_85> vigo_: I don't have a backup of /var
[20:12] <MamboKurt> pop79: i installed it and tried to run it, but the pops up a window saying it has problems initalising and that there is no driver or it's not properly working.
[20:12] <fde> Seta_: replace entirely... in this case... did you already do the command?
[20:12] <lupine_85> bit of an oops on my part
[20:12] <brunner> fde: I manually used a long apt-get install command and included almost every package listed as a dependency of ubuntu-desktop
[20:12] <Seta_> yes..*twitch*
[20:12] <pop79> oohhhhhh, looks bad MamboKurt, but i will try my best to help, wait a sec...
[20:12] <Seta_> fde: Yeah...you said tee-i
[20:12] <vigo_> lupine_85: Make one before you goof with it.
[20:12] <Ademan> Seta_: you did back up the original file?... right? :-p
[20:13] <brunner> fde: including gnome-core, gdm, gnome-system-tools, gnome-tils, and xserver-xorg
[20:13] <Seta_> fde, ademan: uh...no...~_~
[20:13] <fde> Seta_: no problem, but my apologies... let me paste a default blacklist file, then I'll tell you how to put it back
[20:13] <MamboKurt> pop79: maybe should mention that i installed jaunty today :)
[20:13] <lupine_85> wedll, kind of goes without saying
[20:13] <Jampiter> Hi
[20:13] <vigo_> lupine_85: I do not see as anything could really go bad, there is the restore function
[20:13] <Jampiter> My xorg.conf has just wiped itself
[20:13] <pop79> Oh, i dont think you should have, it has actually been known to have a few ati problems
[20:13] <brunner> maybe I should just give in and install ubuntu-desktop
[20:14] <Seta_> it was a fresh install with only one other blacklist entry
[20:14] <Jampiter> What do I put back into it to make the screen resolution go back to normal? (1680x1050)
[20:14] <lupine_85> vigo_: I was just wondering if anyone actually knew before I tried it
[20:14] <pop79> MamboKurt, go to System, Administration, Update manager and search for updates
[20:14] <lupine_85> `file *list | grep HTML |wc -l` gives me 8 entries, "woo"
[20:15] <MamboKurt> pop79: i tried the newest by ubuntu and the one from the ati hompage
[20:15] <pop79> Jampitar: Get viruss scanner from add/remove
[20:15] <pop79> MamboKurt, try as i said, there might be certain updates needed.
[20:15] <brunner> fde: okay, I just gave in.  I'm not installing ubuntu-desktop... 434 more packages
[20:15] <Jampiter> pop79: It's not a virus, I was modifying it but it's just wiped itself
[20:15] <L3Tum> Does anybody know anything about hardware conflicts?
[20:16] <lupine_85> right, crunch time
[20:16] <pop79> oh, i thought it just "wiped itself without notification".
[20:16] <MamboKurt> pop79: brb
[20:16] <vigo_> lupine_85: But you never know, so back it up if you have data that you want saved, OSs crash, is normally user error, try this, copy the text from that command, save it, then edit the other, if goof ups happen, then replace the original configs
[20:16] <pop79> MamboKurt: In English please?
[20:16] <fde> Seta_: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/119804/  <-- throw that into any file in your home folder... then sudo rm /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist && sudo mv thisfile /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[20:16] <MamboKurt> pop79:be right back
[20:16] <fde> Seta_: again, my apologies, wasn't thinking
[20:16] <pop79> ok
[20:17] <Jampiter> Anyone? This is quite urgent!
[20:17] <fde> !urgent
[20:17] <lupine_85> vigo_: mmhm. ooh, it downgrades the problem from an error to a serious warning
[20:17] <lupine_85> win
[20:17] <fde> !patience
[20:17] <pop79> Jampitar, i might be able to help, just wait...
[20:17] <Seta_> fde: thanks. I'll take care of it
[20:17] <vigo_> lupine_85: That sounds better.
[20:17] <fde> Seta_: that already has the hda intel blacklist entry too, so then you should just be able to restart
[20:18] <pop79> Jampiter: i think i might be able to help...
[20:18] <fde> Jampiter: in intrepid, there is no /etc/X11/xorg.conf ...
[20:18] <vigo_> lupine_85: Gratzi!
[20:19] <Jampiter> fde: There was a few minutes ago!
[20:19] <Guest17074> hi folks. firefox refuses to start after an apt-get update. seems that it looks for libgnomeui which is not installed on my system.
[20:19] <Jampiter> pop79: Oh?
[20:19] <pop79> one minute, jampiter
[20:19] <marioz> help, I think my hard drive is failing
[20:19] <regeya> beg your pardon, fde?
[20:19] <marioz> it says "error reading block" when booting
[20:19] <fde> regeya: ?
[20:19] <pop79> Jampiter: what is your graphics card?
[20:20] <Jampiter> ATI Radeon 200M
[20:20] <pop79> ok...
[20:20] <regeya> I'm not within reach of an intrepid machine, but I just modified an xorg.conf on an intrepid machine last night...
[20:20] <smokeytheman> hi, is there a terminal command for changing the resolution? or better yet to launch the interface to change the resolution?
[20:20] <fde> regeya: in intrepid, Xorg handles those things automatically, so by default the file is unnecessary.
[20:20]  * regeya facepalm
[20:21] <fde> regeya: could be an additional tool added the file... but native drivers don't require it
[20:21] <L3Tum> fde, What does intrepid use? This might help me also... I can't get my mouse to work. I found an xorg.conf file in intrepid, and it had some devices in there, just not mouse. But when I added mouse it still did not work. What does intrepid use in place of xorg.conf?
[20:21]  * regeya facepalm again
[20:21] <MamboKurt> pop79: updated and restarted the xserver. same problems as before
[20:21] <fde> regeya: in this case, the ati packages likely modified it
[20:21] <mikeshollen> I'm trying to figure out which device my keyboard is
[20:21] <fde> regeya: ?
[20:21] <mikeshollen> when I run the command ls -l /dev/input/by-id/ it doesn't seem to work
[20:21] <lupine_85> OK, I can install stuff again now *phew*
[20:21] <hlm> need help with installing a metacity theme, after adding it through the appearances dialog it is not showing up
[20:21] <mikeshollen> it tells me there is no such directory
[20:22] <vigo_> lupine_85: Whew! neato work
[20:22] <pop79> MamboKurt: Very sorry, but I don't know any other possible solutions... sorry, but you'll have to look elsewhere
[20:22] <fde> L3Tum: automatic configuration... Adam Jackson has been working on it for like 3 years and it finally went into 7.3 ... regeya you might want to look into this too
[20:22] <MamboKurt> pop79: any idead where?
[20:22] <fde> mikeshollen: it should be handled via hal and evdev ...
[20:22] <mikeshollen> fde: what do you mean?
[20:22] <regeya> in most cases, it's not necessary to modify it, I'll agree.  I've installed intrepid on 3 machines so far, one using an ati card, another has an nvidia card, the third uses unichrome.  all 3 machines are exceptions to the rule, I guess, because all 3 of 'em have xorg.conf.  there's not much to the file, but it's there :-)
[20:23] <supervisor> oi
[20:23] <aluno> Tudo bem?
[20:23] <fde> mikeshollen: your keyboard... it should be handled via hal and evdev now... instead of -input-kbd
[20:23] <pop79> MamboKurt: try #ati #nvidia or #xorg
[20:23] <ikonia> MamboKurt: what is is the issue
[20:24] <ikonia> pop79: why are you directing people to #ati #nvidia without knowing what card he has ?
[20:24] <MamboKurt> ikonia: he knows
[20:24] <ikonia> MamboKurt: what card do you have ?
[20:24] <ikonia> you cant have an ati and an nvidia
[20:24] <mikeshollen> fde: what I'm trying to do is run ventrilo through wine, I want to be able to play a full screen game and use my push to talk key, but vent does not pick up that i'm pushing the control button if it's not in focus. so I downloaded ventriloctrl which is a program that will forward my key to vent, but it needs to know what value my keyboard is so i can give it the PPT key.
[20:24] <madafaker> witam
[20:24] <pop79> ikonia: I was only trying to help
[20:24] <MamboKurt> ikonia: i have a problem with my ATI Technologies Inc RS690M [Radeon X1200 Series]
[20:24] <ikonia> so why are you being directed to the wrong channels
[20:24] <madafaker> moglby mi ktos polecic jakis edytor do c++
[20:24] <ikonia> pop79: directing people to the wrong channels is not help
[20:24] <pop79> sorry
[20:24] <ikonia> MamboKurt: ok - what is the issue ?
[20:25] <lupine_85> just need to reinstall another 35 packages to get rid of the serious warnings
[20:25] <pop79> im leaving now :(
[20:25] <hlm> grrr
[20:25] <fde> regeya: well, if you're using the proprietary drivers... yes I would suspect they'll be more noisy... as unichrome needs settings for your tablet layout etc... so yes, makes sense it would be noisier... official drivers should now only require the layout at this point though, and entirely removing the file shouldn't effect anything
[20:25] <pjsturgeon> trying to get ethernet working on ubuntu server 8.10. not sure how to configure /etc/networking/interfaces as it says "Reconfiguring networking interfaces [OK] then does nothing
[20:25] <MamboKurt> glxinfo says: "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".". when i try to start ccc its says it has problems initialising and that there is no driver or not properly working.
[20:26] <fde> regeya: don't try it on the 3 machines you listed though, they will all require the things set up in the file
[20:26] <fde> mikeshollen: #winehq
[20:26] <ikonia> MamboKurt: what ati driver have you configured it to use, ati cards are famous for bad support and being driver fussy
[20:26] <Pici> !pl | madafaker
[20:26] <blizzle> MamboKurt, You might try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg
[20:26] <pjsturgeon> I am using onboard ethernet and running /etc/init.d/netowkring restart afterwards
[20:26] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: what is the problem with the networking ?
[20:26] <vigo_> I have a tail, see ya
[20:26] <lupine_85> dpkg-reconfigure -phigh would help more, possibly
[20:26] <pjsturgeon> not getting any signs of connectivity
[20:26] <lupine_85> depending on the problem, mind ;) - I missed the start
[20:27] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: can you expand on that, what are you treating as a sign of conectivity
[20:27] <africaman> any time i upgrade to 8.10 my laptop keep hanging or freezing any thing i can do
[20:27] <L3Tum> Can anybody help me with a possible conflict between mouse and network card?
[20:27] <MamboKurt> i reconfigures xserver-xorg more often as i have fingers.
[20:27] <Guest17074> who is the monkey who made firefox-3.0 depend on half of gnome ?
[20:27] <ikonia> MamboKurt: that's not what I asked

[20:27] <BULLE> Guest17074: welcome to the wonderfull world of gtk+
[20:28] <Guest17074> BULEE : :-(
[20:28] <pjsturgeon> ikonia: its not getting to network OR internet
[20:28] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: ok - does your card have an ip address ?
[20:28] <fde> Guest17074: mozilla... as they use gtk and several other mechanisms specific to gnome.... also, if you're using aptitude or installing suggests automatically, it will bring in firefox-gnome-support which will depend on more
[20:28] <MamboKurt> ikonia: i installed the one from ubuntu and system->administration->hardware drivers says im using "ATI Fire GL"
[20:28] <ikonia> MamboKurt: and that's marked as "in use" in that gui
[20:28] <pjsturgeon> ikonia: how would I find that out? It is an onboard ethernet controller and I have it configured to use dhcp
[20:29] <Guest17074> here is the list of what it brings with it

[20:29] <gejr_> how can i see what services are set to start on bootup ?
[20:29] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: please paste the output of a.) ifconfig -a and your networking file in a pastebin
[20:29] <prince_jammys> heh
[20:29] <gejr_> from console that is..
[20:29] <lupine_85> pjsturgeon: check layer2 (tcpdump -i ....) and layer3 (ip addr show)
[20:29]  * pop79 would like it if people appriciate that im helping them.
[20:29] <fde> Guest17074: why are you pasting this? we can read the depends ourselves  :/
[20:29] <ikonia> MamboKurt: ok so that means it's in use, I suspect that 3d support is not available for your card and that xorg driver version
[20:29] <lupine_85> well, assuming iproute2 is installed
[20:30] <ikonia> pop79: please stop with that, I'm sure people are gratful for any valuable support
[20:30] <pop79> ok
[20:30] <lupine_85> otherwise ifconfig ... (eth0, probably)
[20:30] <hlm> ERR: installing new themes is totally suckish, it does not work properly, it changes the main bars to something that reminds me of windows 95
[20:30] <pjsturgeon> ikonia: how to paste that much? my troubled pc is failing to get on the network and there is too much to type over :)
[20:30] <ikonia> !pastebin > pjsturgeon
[20:30] <MamboKurt> ikonia: thanks. i think i read that this xoorg version is not supported by now
[20:30] <ikonia> MamboKurt: xorg version in ubuntu is fully supported
[20:30] <Guest17074> 51 new packages that i don't need !!! I'm regretting my apt-get upgrade
[20:30] <ikonia> MamboKurt: what version of ubuntu are you using
[20:30] <pjsturgeon> ikonia: i understand pastebin, i just cant get the output from that machine to this
[20:31] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: ooh I see
[20:31] <regeya> and back on xorg, if support for xorg.conf ever goes completely away, I'm buying a mac :->
[20:31] <pjsturgeon> ikonia: i see settings for lo, wlan0 and wmaster0
[20:31] <fde> Guest17074: also, yes, those things are all from firefox-3.0-gnome-support
[20:31] <pjsturgeon> ikonia: but no ethernet
[20:31] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: ok - ok - so that means there is no ethernet device seen
[20:31] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: you don't seen eth0, eth1 anything like that
[20:31] <Guest17074> any way to remove these dependancies ?
[20:31] <lupine_85> pjsturgeon: ifconfig -a ?
[20:31] <torkel_> I'm having trouble with my wireless connection in ubuntu 8.10. It worked great with hardy and intrepid, but when upgrading to intrepid it all goes wrong. First of all the default Broadcom STA driver (i got a b4311) did not work as expected, it's unable to connect to the networks. Then I installed b43-fwcutter and correct firmware, it seems to load the drivers ok but no it's nagging about that the wlancard is turned off. I've turned it on...
[20:31] <ikonia> Guest17074: no
[20:31] <MamboKurt> ikonia: jaunty. i crashed my ibex and i thought it would be a good time to switch. thought so....
[20:31] <lupine_85> or is it actually not there?
[20:31] <ikonia> Guest17074: you'd have to rebuild the package
[20:31] <Guest17074> :-((((
[20:32] <L3Tum> My mouse and my network card do not work can somebody help me?
[20:32] <ikonia> MamboKurt: jaunty support is in #ubuntu+1 and not supported/in development, using development versions is not a good idea
[20:32]  * Guest17074 will drop firefox
[20:32] <Guest17074> thanks anyway
[20:32] <fde> Guest17074: they are not deps... just 'apt-get install firefox-3.0'  :/
[20:32] <lupine_85> yay for broken kernalage, I guess
[20:32] <ikonia> lupine_85: what kernel version is causing you problems
[20:32] <MamboKurt> ikonia: i just realized it
[20:32] <Guest17074> these 51 dependances appeared when removing and reinstalling firefox-3.0
[20:33] <Guest17074> ah I know what happened
[20:33] <pop79> Does KDE stand for Knoppix Desktop Enviornment?
[20:33]  * lupine_85 notes that mixing aptitude and apt-get is generally Bad
[20:33] <pjsturgeon> ikonia: no, you think onboard ethernet is the issue? i have ripped out a spare pci network card to try
[20:33] <lupine_85> ikonia: none, I'm just commenting generally
[20:33] <ikonia> pop79: no, Kommon Desktop envionment, and that is offtopic here
[20:33] <Guest17074> I did not install firefox from ubuntu but from their web site if i remember well
[20:33] <Guest17074> i'll try reinstalling it from there
[20:33] <xpot> Question: can anyone help me with a memory address issue? Running ubuntu 8.1 amd64 just added 8GB DDR only Addressing 7.3GB
[20:33] <ikonia> Guest17074: that would be unwise
[20:33] <regeya> no.  the K just stands for K now.  It used to be Kool Desktop Environment...and as I typed that, ikonia gave an answer I'd not heard before...thanks ikonia
[20:33] <ikonia> xpot: what makes you think that
[20:33] <torkel_> anyone has any idea on how i could get this broadcom 4311 working on my laptop? Tried the propretary default driver, tried b43-fwcutter (failed because it says my wlan card is turned off, which i'm unable to turn on)?
[20:33] <Veratyr9> !mount
[20:33] <fde> Guest17074: then why are you complaining to us?
[20:34] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: if you have no eth0/eth1 device from ifconfig -a then you have no network card detected
[20:34] <Guest17074> what would be unwise would be to clutter my system because a gmoron decided to add a dependancy on gnome-support-whatever
[20:34] <xpot> ikonia: resource monitor is showing that
[20:34] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: grep eth /var/log/syslog.log

[20:37] <L3Tum> I need help with mouse not working......somebody....I've been trying to fix this for 3 days straight....possibly a conflict with network card, can anybody help me?
[20:37] <marathon> the password is right
[20:37] <Drunkymonkey> Епта!
[20:37] <lupine_85> L3Tum: what happens when you remove the mouse? does the network card work?
[20:37] <xpot> ikonia: Total=7488 ??
[20:38] <BossaNestaAFK> hi guys.. is there a search function in apt-get?
[20:38] <ikonia> xpot: boot the "memcheck" option from good, you may have bad ram
[20:38] <ikonia> BossaNestaAFK: apt-cache
[20:38] <lupine_85> BossaNestaAFK: apt-cache search
[20:38] <BossaNestaAFK> thx guys..
[20:38] <pjsturgeon> ikonia: it has spotted my realtek but says "Driver 's'd' needs updating, please use bus_type methods
[20:38] <wes1> I would like my dyndns account to forward all connection attempts directly to a pc behind my router. How do I do this? Im using Hardy Heron
[20:38] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: ahhh, looks like there is a problem with your card/kernel module, hence why it's not being found
[20:38] <xpot> iknoia: ok, will do
[20:38] <L3Tum> lupine_85, no. Usb mouse will work, but not the PS/2 mouse. network card I installed a week ago and never got it to work. I've tried everything on google to fix the mouse and the card, so the only thing I can think of is maybe a conflict between these
[20:39] <pjsturgeon> ikonia: think i'll have more luck with another card?
[20:39] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: if it's supported, sure
[20:39] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: most main makes are
[20:39] <pjsturgeon> d-link, lets hope so
[20:39] <BossaNestaAFK> so, if i wanna install some driver and i need to recomplile my kernel, is kernel-package is what i need instead of "kernel-header"?
[20:39] <ikonia> BossaNestaAFK: nope
[20:39] <ikonia> BossaNestaAFK: only need to recompile the kernel if you want them built into the kernel, or the module requires a specific kernel version
[20:39] <BossaNestaAFK> ikonia, oh... so.. it should be kernel-headers?
[20:40] <wes1> I would like my dyndns account to forward all connection attempts directly to a pc behind my router. How do I do this? Im using Hardy Heron
[20:40] <lupine_85> L3Tum: quite possibly, yeah. Are the PCI slots set to be managed by the O/S in your BIOS?
[20:40] <BossaNestaAFK> ikonia, i'm running a special kernel,  2.6.24-21-eeepc .. i can't download the header.. @@
[20:40] <ikonia> BossaNestaAFK: why do you need the header
[20:41] <lupine_85> BossaNestaAFK: you can use the sources in place of the headers
[20:41] <ikonia> wes1: that's nothing to with ubuntu - that's a router config
[20:41] <pop79> ikonia: just to remind you that you forgot to take the away message "not at desk"
[20:41] <BossaNestaAFK> something wrong with my Virtual Box, it show warning.. in my Fedora i could fix it with the VBox command
[20:41] <L3Tum> lupine_85, I don't know. What do I look for? I have changed the BIOS setting for port 1 from auto to com1 back to auto, nothing happened. I don't know what to look for other than that
[20:41] <ikonia> pop79: done, thank you
[20:41] <BossaNestaAFK> lupine_85, oh.. yeah.. the source.. that's right!!
[20:41] <lupine_85> L3Tum: there should be a Plug 'n Play menu somewhere
[20:42] <wes1> ikonia; I said behind my router, so it have everything to do with ubuntu, its ubuntu software
[20:42] <lupine_85> BossaNestaAFK: it's a good bet, since they're required by GPL to make it available :)
[20:42] <ikonia> wes1: your router forwards to things behind your router - not your clients
[20:42] <wes1> ikonia; sure i could make it forward to my router, then id have to use port forwarding to the comp or i can forward it directly to the comp via software
[20:42] <sakyamuni> I added a file to /etc/init.d, how can I make it so it starts/stop like the other scripts?
[20:42] <TruthTaco> how do i format a USB drive
[20:42] <lupine_85> L3Tum: the other option, of course, would be to buy a USB mouse
[20:42] <L3Tum> lupine_85, yes, I'm there....PNP OS Installed=NO, Resources Controlled By=Auto....
[20:42] <BossaNestaAFK> lupine_85, hehe.. i forgot where can i download kernel source... can u tell me the name of the package?
[20:42]  * hlm is now here to help! :-)
[20:43] <wes1> ikonia no
[20:43] <BossaNestaAFK> lupine_85, oh.. sorry.. it's not a command kernel.. so i have to google it myself, right?
[20:43] <lupine_85> TruthTaco: mkfs.ext3 /dev/<whatever>
[20:43] <ikonia> wes1: what ?
[20:43] <ikonia> wes1: you want connections from the internet to forward to your PC ?
[20:43] <racecar-56> my floppy drive dosen't work, it isn't detected but in windows it seems to work, what's the prob?
[20:43] <lupine_85> BossaNestaAFK: it's BIOS-specific, yeah
[20:43] <ikonia> wes1: is that what your asking ?
[20:43] <TruthTaco> thanks
[20:43] <wes1> !inadyn | ikonia
[20:43] <lupine_85> whoops, getting my wires crossed
[20:43] <BossaNestaAFK> lupine_85, hehe. found it.. thx
[20:43] <wes1> !ddclient | ikonia
[20:43] <xpot> ikonia: is Total = 7992 Good?  I guess I just needed a reboot.
[20:43] <pjsturgeon> ikonia: ifconfig shows me eth1, set me networking file to http://pastebin.com/m7632a035
[20:43] <sakyamuni> anyone know something like chkconfig for ubuntu? sysv-rc-conf?
[20:43] <wes1> it doesnt know anything about either
[20:43] <ikonia> xpot: if your total is changing - that's worrrying
[20:43] <ikonia> xpot: check in memtest
[20:44] <xpot> ikonia: ok
[20:44] <wes1> ikonia; https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DynamicDNS
[20:44] <wes1> I just hoped some1 has done it
[20:44] <pjsturgeon> ikonia: saved, restarted, no networking still
[20:44] <lupine_85> do >4GB kernels steal a chunk for the kernel?
[20:44] <L3Tum> lupine_85, yes I could try that. I'll just use the usb mouse on that machine until I get another one
[20:44] <wes1> and can verify it works
[20:44] <lupine_85> (and would that show up in free?)
[20:44] <lintian> how do i make an index or database of all my harddisks ?
[20:44] <ikonia> xtm-lap: I'd expect to see 8192mb of ram
[20:44] <benilson> boa tarde!
[20:45] <lupine_85> lintian: not sure what you're after?
[20:45] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: look at ifconfig -a again please now with your new card in
[20:45] <tyler_d1> anyone know of an sql utility for linux?
[20:45] <ikonia> lintian: sudo updatedb
[20:45] <tyler_d1> query browser that is
[20:45] <benilson> alguem aqui é brasileiro?
[20:45] <ikonia> tyler_d1: for what database ?
[20:45] <wes1> It says Using your Computer to perform Dynamic DNS Notification
[20:45] <racecar-56> my floppy drive dosen't work, it isn't detected but in windows it seems to work, what's the prob? (if you know how to fix this please pm me)
[20:45] <L3Tum> lupine_85, Are these the correct BIOS settings for PnP though?
[20:45] <tyler_d1> ikonia: sql2005
[20:45] <wes1> so its software ikonia
[20:45] <pjsturgeon> ikonia it is there ok
[20:45] <guntbert> !br | benilson
[20:45] <lupine_85> tyler_d1: I tend to use sqlitebrowser... but I use sqlite for a lot of things ;)
[20:45] <lintian> lupine_85, i have several harddisks, not all connected at the same time, i want to search for files on all disks at once
[20:46] <lupine_85> L3Tum: they should be set to managed by the OS if at all possible
[20:46] <ikonia> wes1: that's just dns update - that's not the forwarding to behind the router
[20:46] <L3Tum> lupine_85, PNP OS Installed=NO, Resources Controlled By=Auto...
[20:46] <wes1> ikonia; so how could it possibly update? by giving it a 192 address
[20:46] <lintian> lupine_85, so i want to make an index for them first and search that
[20:46] <lupine_85> L3Tum: might be worth setting PNP OS Installed = Yes
[20:46] <sakyamuni> Package sysv-rc-conf is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[20:46] <tyler_d1> lupine_85: ty I will give them a shot
[20:46] <ikonia> wes1: your router nats
[20:46] <ikonia> wes1: or masqurades
[20:46] <lupine_85> lintian: well, dunno if slocate/etc would be any good for that
[20:47] <wes1> ikonia; or perhaps you want the DNS entry to follow your *computer* around, rather than stay with your DSL/Cable connection.
[20:47] <wes1> thats a paste from that document
[20:47] <lupine_85> I'd (topically) make a tiny sqlite database and import the ls output into it
[20:47] <ikonia> wes1: same thing
[20:47] <wes1> thats what I want to do
[20:47] <guntbert> wes1: that won't work, you must give the address you router has from your ISP
[20:47] <ikonia> wes1: your just doing dns updates - that's nothing to do with forwarding
[20:47] <lintian> lupine_85, i guess so, but i'm not sure how
[20:47] <lupine_85> (assumiong the hard drive content is static?)
[20:47] <guntbert> *your router
[20:47] <pjsturgeon> ikonia: eth1, has a few packets run a few packets with no errors, but still no ping or telnet gets anywhere
[20:48] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: thats a good start
[20:48] <klavs> Hi why can`t I install awn-core-applets-bzr It says there is no such package.
[20:48] <mikeshollen> can anyone tell me why I can't find this directory?
[20:48] <mikeshollen> michael@Alienware:~/ventriloctrl-0.5$ ls /dev/input/by-id
[20:48] <mikeshollen> ls: cannot access /dev/input/by-id: No such file or directory
[20:48] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: you have eth1 - that means your card is found
[20:48] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: now you just need to give it an IP address/set it to use dhcp
[20:48] <lupine_85> lintian: me neither off the top of my head. probably via a ruby script in my case. like I said, I don't know anything that does exactly what you want OOTB
[20:48] <lupine_85> dhclient eth1
[20:48] <ikonia> pjsturgeon: where do you get IP's from - your router/modem, or are you on a corperate LAN ?
[20:48] <wes1> ikonia; the problem is, i have DSL, and teh DSL modem works as a router, so when I hook up my router, i now have two routers on the network a 192.168.1.1 and a 192.168.2.1 so its making it a pain in the rear for me to set up this server
[20:48] <L3Tum> change lupine_85 yeah changed that to Yes, still doesn't work. Now, if they are conflicting, and I use a usb mouse, They will still conflict because the mouse and net card are still assigned to the same address, only the mouse won't be used right?
[20:49] <pjsturgeon> aha! thanks guys
[20:49] <lupine_85> wes1: the public IP should be the WAN IP on the router, which isn't 192.168/16, trust me
[20:49] <pjsturgeon> sudo dhclient eth1 got it
[20:49] <lintian> lupine_85, it is static as long as i don't add or remove stuff from it yes
[20:49] <ikonia> wes1: thats just a hardware issue with your setup
[20:49] <lupine_85> then you set up NAT on the router to forward requests from the WAN IP to the server IP
[20:49] <lupine_85> all beyond the scope of this channel
[20:50] <wes1> lupine_85; what channel should I go to then
[20:50] <pHreaksYcle> lupine_85 you just put me into a coma
[20:50] <guntbert> wes1: ##networking
[20:50] <lupine_85> pHreaksYcle: I have that effect on many people
[20:50] <lupine_85> in other news, Cap'n Crunch is dead
[20:51] <ezerhoden> lupine_85: how old was he?
[20:51] <ezerhoden> the original hacker
[20:51] <lupine_85> wes1: really, you shouldn't set up any server behind NAT. it's more hassle than it's worth
[20:51] <lupine_85> grab a VM and set up your application on that instead
[20:51] <linduxed> how do i check if ive got bluetooth installed into my laptop?
[20:51] <k9> how to made bin in lxde??
[20:51] <linduxed> hardware wise
[20:52] <ikonia> k9: pardon ?
[20:52] <k9> hello
[20:52] <linduxed> i wanna check if i should even bother with drivers
[20:52] <k9> ??
[20:52] <L3Tum> lupine_85, is there a way to check which address the mouse and network card are using, and if they are overlapping, change them?
[20:52] <ikonia> k9: what are you asking ?
[20:52] <mambo6> ls
[20:52] <k9> i wanna to make bin in LXDE
[20:52] <lupine_85> L3Tum: cat /proc/interrupts might be what you want
[20:52] <ikonia> k9: what is LXDE ?

[20:52] <prince_jammys> k9: you're talking about a trash can?
[20:52] <k9> it is new lightweight desktop
[20:53] <lupine_85> k9: try opening a terminal and running gcc/make/the usual
[20:53] <ikonia> k9: so what do you mean by a "bin"
[20:53] <klavs> Does some one know how to install avant-window-navigator manager?

[20:53] <jdmnynja> Hey all, I'm having an issue with rhythmbox on ubuntu 8.10 64bit. Everytime I load up anything to update such as flash player, etc. it gives me error or when i try to remove it and reinstall it says this E rhythmbox: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 2
[20:53] <k9> yes i'm thinking about trash sorry
[20:53]  * lupine_85 fails
[20:54] <notwist> jdmnynja: rythmbox is crap. use songbird or amarok :)
[20:54] <prince_jammys> k9: see if lxde has its own channel
[20:54] <racecar-56> lxde DOES have a channel
[20:54] <lupine_85> let's be fair, they're all a bit poor
[20:54] <racecar-56> do /join #lxde
[20:54] <ezerhoden> lupine_85: were you not refering to the phone phreaker ?
[20:54] <jdmnynja> notwist: good to see your in here! I got Ubuntu 8.10 64bit installed and running. I had to take our RAM and video card junk. Anyway, I'd love to do that, but whenever I update or try to install flash it pops up error. Is it because it is automatically recognizing rhythmbox?
[20:55]  * hlm is now going to restart, see ya soon!
[20:55] <lupine_85> ezerhoden: that was the general intent, yes
[20:55] <yao_ziyuan> how do i reinstall a package with apt-get?

[20:56] <MaxDread> the problem is that I can't do it as root
[20:56] <lupine_85> MaxDread: what do you hit when you try?
[20:56] <guntbert> MaxDread: what happened?
[20:57]  * lupine_85 always runs sudo passswd first on ubuntu systems
[20:57] <jdmnynja> notwist: i am downloading Amarok atm. Hopefully this fixes my rhythmbox errors.
[20:57] <MaxDread> Filesystem got corrupted, fixed it with e2fsck, and sudo itself got corrupted
[20:57] <notwist> jdmnynja: amarok is another media player entirely
[20:57] <joerack> can somebody please help me?  http://pastebin.com/m1ad6ee07   I don't know what to do
[20:57] <notwist> jdmnynja: and rythmbox does not have anything to do with flash in firefox
[20:57] <lupine_85> MaxDread: ah. well, reboot into a rescue shell, chroot in, fix however you can
[20:57] <jdmnynja> notwist: it gives me a rhythmbox error when i try to install flash.
[20:57] <christop1er> So. how would I install ubuntu oif the 8.10 live cd doesn't work (hangs with the error message, "No controller found" and throws me to busybox), and the 8.10 netinstaller is broken?
[20:58] <notwist> jdmnynja: weird
[20:58] <guntbert> lupine_85: why would you do that (sudo passwd)?
[20:58] <jdmnynja> notwist: very. i can't find anything about it on the launchpad.
[20:58] <christop1er> The 8.04 netinstaller seems to work. Would it be feasable to install 8.04 and "manually" update to 8.10?
[20:58] <lupine_85> guntbert: so I still have root if sudo dies
[20:58] <ikonia> christop1er: I'd make a quick guess that you where trying to use a raid disk system/controller
[20:58] <lupine_85> s/if/when
[20:58] <jdmnynja> notwist: or anything on the internet for that matter.
[20:58] <MaxDread> lupine: tried that... I need to be able to get a fresh "sudo" command from CD because even booting into recovery mode it wouldn't let me go out to the net
[20:59] <guntbert> lupine_85: sudo doesn't "die"
[20:59] <christop1er> ikonia: Not really. I guess my disk controller supports it or something. But no, just 1 disk
[20:59] <lupine_85> guntbert: it really really does
[20:59] <Appiah_> What do you do when ubuntu messed up the menu.lst? I got multiply entries for everything and it's all done by packages who wanted to add things,  got like 5x of everything
[20:59] <Appiah_> is there a way to make it autogenerate it again?
[20:59] <lupine_85> it dies when the system clock goes funny, when it loses setuid, when /etc/sudoers gets corrupted, etc
[20:59] <Appiah_> Ubuntu-Server 8.10 if that matters
[20:59] <christop1er> ikonia: I have one sata drive and one regular "old" one in. gparted finds them at least
[21:00] <jdmnynja> notwist: i just got to install amarok and I got this error message- E:rhythmbox: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
[21:00] <NiranjanR> Appiah_, cant u manually edit the file and remove/comment out repeating entries
[21:00] <lupine_85> MaxDread: you can ar -x the /deb then tar -xf the contained data.tar.gz to get the binary
[21:00] <lupine_85> erm, .deb
[21:00] <Appiah_> NiranjanR: I'd like it to manage itself
[21:00] <notwist> jdmnynja: try googling, sorry but i have no idea
[21:00] <lupine_85> might be easier to just dpkg -i it though
[21:00] <guntbert> lupine_85, MaxDread: sudo allows all accounts in the group 'adm'
[21:00] <jdmnynja> notwist: all right, I'll see what I can dig up.
[21:00] <MaxDread> lupine: dpkg isn't working... can't get root
[21:00] <lupine_85> guntbert: and su is a handy fallback for when it breaks
[21:01] <lupine_85> MaxDread: hence the suggestion to chroot in from a rescue environment
[21:01] <jdmnynja> Anyone here have any idea what error- E: rhythmbox: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2 - means?
[21:01] <MaxDread> lupine: I already tried it through recovery -- still no dice... thought that su was disabled, btw
[21:01] <lupine_85> jdmnynja: read up about 2 lines on the output you get and it'll tell you why
[21:01] <lupine_85> MaxDread: it is by default :/
[21:01] <Travis-42> is it possible to use /etc/hosts to point a single address at multiple ip addresses (e.g. if the first one doesnt work, try the second)?
[21:01] <lupine_85> setting a root password re-enables it
[21:02] <suicidepills> this is a total shot in the dark, but is there any way to run gnome-do on lxde?
[21:02] <ikonia> Travis-42: no
[21:02] <istvan> i ran a check on a program, and it returned the error it was missing: libCgGL.so -- how do i fix it?
[21:02] <ikonia> Travis-42: that would be round robin DNS
[21:02] <jdmnynja> lupine_85: the output details from the installation?
[21:02] <MaxDread> lupine: so it's not a permanent disabled, eh? Hmmm... ;-)
[21:02] <christop1er> Bleh. I'll just install 8.04 and do a dist-upgrade.
[21:02] <jscinoz-m1330> Travis-42, install a local dns servers (dnsmasq or bind) and have one host with multipl A records
[21:02] <lupine_85> MaxDread: what fails when you try recovery from an external environment?
[21:02] <NET||abuse> Hi guys. I have an old dapper web server box that just runs a couple of simple sites, i was trying to upgrade a php framework, and i wanted to update php on the server, problem is i'm getting errors on apt-get update  => Failed to fetch http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/mirrors/ubuntu/dists/dapper/Release.gpg  Error reading from server. Remote end closed connection [IP: 131.188.12.212 80]
[21:02] <Travis-42> hmm ok thanks ikonia and jscinoz-m1330
[21:02] <lupine_85> jdmnynja: yep
[21:02] <NET||abuse> can anyone help me soolve this issue?
[21:02] <lupine_85> MaxDread: no, you just can't log in as root by default
[21:02] <lupine_85> which is daft
[21:02] <jdmnynja> lupine_85: any way I can go back and review it? I already exited the details
[21:03] <ikonia> NET||abuse: sounds like the repo no longer has that key or that server is down
[21:03] <ikonia> NET||abuse: visit that url in a browser
[21:03] <lupine_85> jdmnynja: try to install it again
[21:03] <mun> hi
[21:03] <racecar-56> my floppy drive dosen't work, it isn't detected but in windows it seems to work, what's the prob? (if you know how to fix this please pm me)
[21:03] <MaxDread> lupine: from recovery environment, trying anything with dpkg like "dpkg --configure -a" failed to get out to the net
[21:03] <joerack> some1 pls help me  http://pastebin.com/m1ad6ee07   I really want to use windows
[21:03] <jdmnynja> lupine_85: well it actually installed it, the only problem is that the stupid error message pops up and I cannot remove rhythmbox from the add/remove programs
[21:03] <NET||abuse> ikonia, just did that, gpg file is there
[21:03] <lupine_85> MaxDread: if you have the .deb, that shouldn't be a problem
[21:03] <savvas> MaxDread: what seems to be the problem? no sudo?
[21:03] <lupine_85> and you can always enable the networking manually
[21:04] <amaurea> Hello. I am having some issues with 32-bit compatibility libraries on my 64-bit laptop in interpid. I am trying to compile a program in 32-bit mode, but libXext doesn't seem to have a 32 bit version. How can I get it? I am using the nvidia driver, btw
[21:04] <ikonia> NET||abuse: looks like the server is bouncing you
[21:04] <mun> when i use gnome-termial to set alias, the tab key doesn't seem to show path possiblities. for example, when i do alias java='/usr/<tab> it doesn't show possibilities. can this be fixed?
[21:04] <NET||abuse> ikonia, wow,, never happened before.
[21:04] <ab> hello all
[21:04] <MaxDread> savvas: yep.. no sudo... sudo corrupted after last e2fsck.. and as a result, no dpkg works either
[21:04] <runpain2> what program do i need to see my wireless connetion and the singnal streagth
[21:04] <ikonia> NET||abuse: interesting
[21:04] <ikonia> NET||abuse: file is not there
[21:04] <lifestream> Does anyone have a Logitech MediaPlay mouse? If so, could I have your config? (xorg.conf, Xmodmap)
[21:04] <ab> i am facing some problems in installing nvedia drivers in ubuntu8.10
[21:04] <ikonia> NET||abuse: try to download it manually
[21:04] <savvas> MaxDread: did you try running e2fsck again ?
[21:05] <lifestream> runpain2, network-manager or wicd
[21:05] <NET||abuse> ikonia, interesting indeed,, just ran aptitude clean; aptitude update; and it didn't throw any error, did apt-get clean; apt-get update; and it threw the error again?
[21:05] <guntbert> lupine_85: I still don't think you should tell people to enable the root-account, because all the things you mentioned don't "just happen" but are the result of some unintentional wrenching
[21:05] <MaxDread> lupine: I'll try that extract from the .deb on the CD... can you send that command string in a priv msg real quick?
[21:05] <amaurea> ab: what is happening?
[21:05] <ikonia> NET||abuse: the file is not there
[21:05] <ikonia> NET||abuse: that is why you are getting the error
[21:05] <Appiah_> ah i found update-grub
[21:05] <MaxDread> savvas: tried e2fsck several times. Was forced to do it because something hosed up with Tracker and locked up this machine...
[21:05] <ab> when i had installed the driver after logging in i just got blank screen.....
[21:06] <NET||abuse> ikonia, but I clicked the the link directly in the console and opened in firefox locally, i get a keyfile in my text editor
[21:06] <ab> amaurea : when i had installed the driver after logging in i just got blank screen.....
[21:06] <MaxDread> savvas: was trying to fix this without having to do a soft-install and then go through the hours of slow downloading updates
[21:06] <Titan8990> ab, edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf from recovery mode and change the line:   Driver "nvidia"    to:   Driver "nv"
[21:06] <ikonia> NET||abuse: I get intermittant failure
[21:06] <Titan8990> ab, that will temporarily solve your problem so you can log in to the GUI
[21:06] <ikonia> NET||abuse: I guess it's got a "max limit"
[21:06] <NET||abuse> ikonia, weird. :)
[21:06] <amaurea> ab: you didn't get any warnings when installing it?
[21:07] <ikonia> NET||abuse: too many people must be using it - or there is a problem with the server
[21:07] <antares> Hello everyone!
[21:07] <ab>  amaurea : no , i havent got any warning
[21:07] <savvas> MaxDread: which release, hardy? 32-bit or 64-bit?
[21:08] <Wunderbar> whats the command for undoing an auto connect to a room in irc?
[21:08] <ortsvorsteher> !hello | antares
[21:08] <MaxDread> savvas: 8.10 Intrepet 32-bit
[21:08] <guntbert> Wunderbar: /part <channel>
[21:08] <NET||abuse> ikonia, i see.. just seems very consistent, tried 4 times now, apt-get always fails, is aptitude not checking ?
[21:08] <runpain2> Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz
[21:09] <runpain2> is that no good
[21:09] <fearful> rupain2: What version are you running?
[21:09] <savvas> MaxDread: here's the package: http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/s/sudo/sudo_1.6.9p17-1ubuntu2.1_i386.deb
[21:09] <antares> I've got a question... Does anyone know where the ACPI thermal sensors are positioned inside a Compaq nx6110? when i do "acpi -t" i get 4 results, which one is which? Any ideas anyone?
[21:09] <runpain2> wait
[21:09] <fearful> rupain2: Of Ubuntu
[21:09] <Meshezabeel> Aly, can you please stop doing that in #edubuntu
[21:10] <guntbert> antares: that might be a question for #hardware
[21:10] <savvas> MaxDread: save it and remember the directory you saved it in. then you can boot in recovery mode and execute: dpkg -i /path/to/sudo_1.6.9p17-1ubuntu2.1_i386.deb
[21:10] <MiladKhajav1> how can I insert the output of 'youtube-dl -g [URL]' command into input of wget command?
[21:10] <Wunderbar> also, how would i change my network password?
[21:10] <antares> guntbert: tnx
[21:10] <runpain2> ubuntu 2.6.24
[21:10] <lifestream> I installed a module, but now when I try to modprobe it, it says Not Found. :/ What can I do?
[21:10] <MaxDread> savvas: got it... gonna try it now.. thanks big time!
[21:10] <savvas> np :) hope it works
[21:10] <amaurea> MiladKhajav1: perhaps wget `youtube-dl -g [url]`
[21:11] <amaurea> MiladKhajav1: depends on what youtube-dl outputs
[21:11] <fearful> rupain2: I'm guessing thats the kernel version, what Ubuntu version it can't be under 4.10.
[21:11] <runpain2> gnome 2.22.3
[21:11] <Titan8990> lifestream, try:   modprobe -l | grep POSSIBLEMODULENAME
[21:11] <amaurea> MiladKhajav1: note the form of the quotes used
[21:11] <fearful> rupain2: Yea thats the kernel, I need the actual ubuntu version
[21:11] <runpain2> 4.0
[21:11] <fearful> runpain2: Type in a terminal lsb_release -a
[21:11] <runpain2> Ubuntu 8.04 (hardy)
[21:11] <lifestream> Titan8990,  Yeah, it's not listed there
[21:11] <savvas> MaxDread: by the way, you might have to also do: dpkg-reconfigure sudo
[21:11] <antares> Does anyone know where the ACPI thermal sensors are positioned inside a Compaq nx6110? when i do "acpi -t" i get 4 results (T1, T2, T3, T4), which one is which? Any ideas?
[21:11] <runpain2> sorry
[21:12] <e3co> how to use pidgin on freenode anonymously?
[21:12] <MaxDread> savvas: duly noted
[21:12] <Titan8990> lifestream, how did you install the module?
[21:12] <MiladKhajav1> amaurea: thnks
[21:12] <fearful> runpain2: Ok, your running a Ubuntu 6.10 repository, you need one for your version.
[21:12] <Arch_NME> hello
[21:12] <runpain2> iam updating sudo
[21:12] <e3co> hi Arch_NME
[21:12] <Arch_NME> I need some assitance installing ubuntu8.10
[21:12] <SuperGuy_9000> Is there a place in Ubuntu where I can see information on all of my hardware, like the My Computer properties in Windows?
[21:13] <e3co> Arch_NME:  whats up?
[21:13] <runpain2> fearful dont know
[21:13] <Titan8990> SuperGuy_9000, lspci
[21:13] <Arch_NME> I want to dual boot with xp
[21:13] <guntbert> antares: your question is not on topic here
[21:13] <cherva> how to start X server with a specified resolution ?
[21:13] <lifestream> Titan8990,  I had the source, did make, make install, no errors. Though there was no output for make install O_o That's all it says to do
[21:13] <ortsvorsteher> !dualboot | Arch_NME
[21:13] <amaurea> Does libXext come with the nvidia driver? Can I install both the 32-bit and 64-bit version to get both versions of the library?
[21:13] <SuperGuy_9000> Totan8990, in the terminal?
[21:13] <Titan8990> SuperGuy_9000, or if you like GUIs.... (boo for GUIs)  system -> preferences -> hardware information
[21:13] <Arch_NME> and I don't know how to make it install to the partition I want
[21:13] <fearful> http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz instead
[21:13] <Titan8990> lifestream, that typically won't work in ubuntu
[21:13] <savvas> Arch_NME: boot using the ubuntu live cd, and install ubuntu, xp will be automatically detected
[21:13] <Titan8990> lifestream, because the way that it builds and install modules is different from most distros
[21:14] <Arch_NME> I am botted with the live cd now
[21:14] <lifestream> Titan8990,  how so? :/ Hmm... even different from Debian?
[21:14] <Arch_NME> when I go to install and it gets to the partition step
[21:14] <Arch_NME> it trys to put the part at the end
[21:14] <SuperGuy_9000> Thanks to Titan8990
[21:14] <Titan8990> lifestream, you will need the kernel source (headers MAY work) or your currently running config to /usr/src/linux
[21:14] <Arch_NME> it won't let me select where to install it
[21:14] <Titan8990> lifestream, not different then debian
[21:14] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | Arch_NME
[21:14] <Arch_NME> it wants to resize aprts
[21:14] <antares> guntbert: i'm pretty desperate here...i've been searching on the internet for hours with no result... there are alot of ppl here, maybe someone knows, i'm sorry
[21:14] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | Arch_NME
[21:14] <lifestream> Titan8990,  Uuuggghh so I have to recompile the whole kernel?
[21:14] <MaxDread> with me luck... thanks again savvas and lupine.. much appreciated
[21:14] <savvas> Arch_NME: go to System > Administration > Partition Editor, you can see your devices and find your "/dev/" device by comparing from File > Devices
[21:15] <Arch_NME> ubottu: sorry
[21:15] <Arch_NME> yeah I have gpart open
[21:15] <e3co> PM me Arch_NME
[21:15] <Titan8990> lifestream, no, but you need the headers/source of your currently running kernel
[21:15] <angeleye> any 1 into hacking in here
[21:15] <fearful> runpain2: Did you get that?
[21:15] <angeleye> any 1 into hacking in here pm me
[21:15] <angeleye> any 1 into hacking in here pm me
[21:15] <angeleye> any 1 into hacking in here pm me

[21:15] <FloodBot1> angeleye: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:15] <Titan8990> lifestream, in fact, recompiling the kernel in ubuntu, ofthen just breaks apt-get when installing modules
[21:15] <Titan8990> lifestream, and highly not recommended
[21:16] <runpain2> Fearfull is that deb
[21:16] <lifestream> Titan8990,  hmmm I have linux-headers-26etcetc installed. Hmmm I can't install the module from apt-get because its not available there
[21:16] <bartek> Hi
[21:16] <guntbert> antares: I understand, but in this busy channel - please keep to the topic
[21:16] <Titan8990> lifestream, what driver is it?
[21:16] <antares> and the topic is?
[21:16] <lifestream> Titan8990, lmpcm_usb
[21:16] <Titan8990> antares, ubuntu help and support
[21:16] <Jordan_U> antares, Ubuntu support
[21:16] <Titan8990> lifestream, which is?
[21:17] <antares> i'm using ubuntu, and don't understand the output of a command in terminal
[21:17] <The_Joe_> I had to forcefully stop an apt - how can I free the administration directory?
[21:17] <antares> isn't that the topic?
[21:17] <runpain2> Fearfull got it
[21:17] <lifestream> Titan8990,  Logitech MediaPlay mouse drivers
[21:17] <savvas> Arch_NME: as I said, find your hard drive's /dev/ name. Leave it unpartitioned, don't make partitions using gparted- then in the ubuntu installer, use manual partitioning, and choose that /dev/ for the root ("/") and swap.
[21:17] <ortsvorsteher> !topic | antares
[21:17] <antares> lol
[21:17] <antares> very helpful

[21:18] <Travis-42> On Ubuntu Server, I am stuck with a horribly small console.  I have tried adding vga=791 to #defoptions in /boot/grub/menu.lst but nothing changes.  Is there something else I have to do?
[21:18] <The_Joe_> savvas, k - trying
[21:18] <mibbx> hi, i want to replace windows completely with ubuntu on a computer with 2 drives and keep all my files... whats a good way to do this?
[21:18] <lifestream> Does *anyone* have Logitech MediaPlay mouse with all the buttons working?!    :----(
[21:18] <Titan8990> lifestream, when you did make install, what kernel source headers did it use?
[21:18] <LogicFan> mibbx, back up all your important files on external media or backup harddrive first
[21:18] <fearful> runpain2: Yes
[21:19] <muxomor> mibbx: standart installation
[21:19] <bastid_raZor> mibbx; put Ubuntu on the first drive and all your files on the 2nd. put
[21:19] <lifestream> Titan8990,  the one I'm running now
[21:19] <The_Joe_> savvas, Ok my connection dropped out and I had to forcefully stop that too >.<
[21:19] <The_Joe_> Now I'm screwed
[21:19] <runpain2> crap that did not work
[21:19] <guntbert> antares: I understood, you were asking for the location of the sensors on your motherboard, if I misinterpreted - sorry then, please restate you problem
[21:19] <mibbx> muxomor: during a standard install I can keep all my files?
[21:19] <savvas> The_Joe_: hm? I didn't understand, can you do once more: sudo apt-get update
[21:20] <savvas> The_Joe_: does it show any errors?
[21:20] <prince_jammys> guntbert: funny, that's how i interpreted the question too
[21:20] <pudland_> question: i didnt have an ethernet cord in when i installed ubuntu.  how do i auto configure the ethernet again?
[21:20] <The_Joe_> savvas, Yes " cannot lock administration directory..."
[21:20] <muxomor> mibbx: it will ask you to use free space for ubuntu, so that nothing will be deleted
[21:20] <muxomor> mibbx: but backuop rules anyway
[21:20] <The_Joe_> savvas, I know what causes it and there was a command to unlock the directory
[21:21] <Titan8990> lifestream, my only guess, is you need to full kernel source, and not just the headers
[21:21] <The_Joe_> But I forgot what it is
[21:21] <guntbert> prince_jammys: nice for me, but no help for antares :(

[21:21] <savvas> The_Joe_: sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/lock
[21:22] <savvas> The_Joe_: then: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade
[21:22] <fearful> Titan8990: I think they might be bad repos
[21:22] <pudland_> logicfan: it only says network proxy
[21:22] <The_Joe_> savvas, sudo apt-get update finishes but then gives me the same error "/
[21:22] <redvamp128> runpain2:  I get sometimes- when I do I just try it again in a few hours and then it will download-- I think it is either server maintenance or they are posting updates to the server.
[21:22] <LogicFan> pudland_, there should be two options
[21:22] <LogicFan> network configuration and network proxy
[21:23] <savvas> The_Joe_: what's the output of: cat /var/cache/apt/archives/lock
[21:23] <pudland_> logicfan: there are 2 under admin
[21:23] <The_Joe_> savvas, Doesn't exist
[21:23] <tiyowan> Hi all. I've been experiencing some problems getting the Alfa Wi-Fi USB adapter to work in Intrepid. Network Manager reports only a 16% signal. I'm using the native RTL8187 Realtek drivers. Could someone point me in the right direction? :)
[21:23] <cellofellow> anyone know how to decrease the font size in the Pidgin buddy list?
[21:23] <guntbert> antares: that is definitely a hardware-related question, as the answer depends largely on your motherboard, but if you google lm-sensors and the name of you MB/notebook you will find something useful
[21:23] <LogicFan> pudland_, network configuration is what you want
[21:24] <redvamp128> runpain2:  if it is a must have you can change the server using software sources -- download from -
[21:24] <savvas> The_Joe_: how about this: ps aux | grep -i apt

[21:24] <jdmnynja> Hey, anyone know how to get youtube videos running in 8.10 64bit firefox?
[21:24] <fearful> cellofellow: I'm almost sure that Pidgin uses your ubuntu theme to get its theme, so you would have to decrease the font from them Appearance menu for that
[21:24] <The_Joe_> savvas, ubottu seems to have given me something - I'll try that
[21:24] <cellofellow> fearful: awe, shucks. Ok
[21:25] <The_Joe_> k that works

[21:25] <jdmnynja> ortsvorsteher: how do I go about getting that done?
[21:26] <fearful> cellofellow: It would have to be the 'application' one
[21:26] <pudland_> logicfan: its set for dhcp. i dont see any dns servers
[21:26] <cellofellow> fearful: what I really needed was some kind of two-pane view to help manage my buddy list better.

[21:28] <tuxflavrdwafls> titan8990 nothing
[21:29] <antares> guntbert: i already tried...no success
[21:29] <marcin> hej
[21:29] <fearful> cellofellow: I think I have a solution
[21:29] <Titan8990> tuxflavrdwafls, alright just do:   lspci

[21:32] <Titan8990> tuxflavrdwafls, I am not certain if your chipset is based on that, but those are the intels that support opengl/compiz

[21:36] <helper> ok thx
[21:37] <Jordan_U> tuxflavrdwafls, You shouldn't need any additional software to get basic compiz running. It should be on by default though without any of the really flashy effects

[21:41] <gui_> i have a quick question about ubuntu and dual bootin with xp
[21:42] <gui_> i was on full blown ubuntu, i just cleared all my harddrives
[21:42] <adaptr> gui_: no you don't
[21:42] <gui_> installed xp performance
[21:42] <fearful> prince_jammys: That would work for lets say I wanna clean upgrade to 9.04 (when its out) and I don't wanna go through installing again
[21:42] <jdmnynja> titan8990: got the same error again..
[21:42] <prince_jammys> gui_: all on one line, please
[21:42] <ortsvorsteher> !enter | gui_
[21:42] <gui_> ok
[21:42] <gui_> sorry, this my first time here
[21:42] <gui_> ok so
[21:43] <jdmnynja> titan8990: it is almost as if rhythmbox is missing pieces, but is not allowing anything to be done around it.
[21:43] <Titan8990> jdmnynja, check out this forum topic:  http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-562594.html
[21:43] <prince_jammys> fearful: do you want to save the names of the packages or the packages themselves?
[21:43] <gui_> I installed xp performance, and it didnt come with any drivers on it. so i cannot use my ethernet adapter or my wireless card. How should i go about using ubuntu (which im on atm) to get drivers for the xp side?
[21:43] <Titan8990> jdmnynja, it looks like you can manually place in the missing parts
[21:43] <hay_ig2000> hi all, i have a wireless network with wpa encryption, every time i log into the system, it asks me to enter the keyring, is there a way to remember the keyring?
[21:44] <asdfqwer> what is the command in grub to boot w/o starting X?
[21:44] <jdmnynja> titan8990: thanks. i will read it through.
[21:44] <Titan8990> asdfqwer, the proper way to do it would be to remove gdm from starting on boot up
[21:44] <fearful> prince_jammys: Names would do just fine I'm reading how with debfoster
[21:45] <chi_> whereami
[21:45] <prince_jammys> fearful: dpkg --get-selections does that
[21:45] <fearful> prince_jammys: Thanks even easier:p
[21:45] <guntbert> chi_: this is the ubuntu support channel, welcome
[21:46] <chi_> hi! hi all
[21:46] <fearful> prince_jammys: Will that get me the ones I've uninstalled too?
[21:46] <gui_> anything guys?
[21:46] <fearful> prince_jammys: nevermind solved :p
[21:46] <prince_jammys> fearful: no
[21:46] <Titan8990> gui_, I don't understand the problem?
[21:46] <Titan8990> gui_, download the drivers and put them on your windows partition so they can be installed?
[21:47] <gui_> where should i look for them though, the laptop manufacturer's website?
[21:47] <Titan8990> gui_, yes
[21:47] <istvan_> I am installing nvidia gelato, and it says i need to set the envirnment variable GELATOHOME="/opt/nvidia/gelato"  -- but if i do sudo gedit /etc/ld.so.conf and add it i get the error: sudo ldconfig
[21:47] <istvan_> /sbin/ldconfig.real: "/opt/nvidia/gelato" is not a known library type  -- what am i doing wrong?
[21:47] <gui_> Ok tyvm :)
[21:47] <Titan8990> gui_, np
[21:47] <epictetus> istvan_: ld.so.conf is NOT where you put environment variables
[21:47] <Titan8990> istvan_, temporary env variable or permanent?
[21:47] <apparle> which is better from while installation if I want the drive to be accessible under windows > NTFS or FAT32
[21:48] <istvan_> perminant
[21:48] <prince_jammys> istvan_: why don't you just export the variable in your current shell, and then install?
[21:48] <epictetus> istvan_: for one user, or for all users on the machine?
[21:48] <Titan8990> istvan_, user specific or for all users?
[21:48] <Flamittor> qustion for ubuntu
[21:48] <Titan8990> !ask | Flamittor
[21:48] <istvan_> for all (i am the only one tho)
[21:48] <Titan8990> istvan_, I would recommend just putting it in your .bashrc then
[21:49] <epictetus> you can put something like:   export GELATOHOME="/opt/nvidia/gelato" in /etc/profile
[21:49] <Titan8990> istvan_, but to apply to everyone you need to edit /etc/profile
[21:49] <Flamittor> Does ubuntu come pre installed with a firewall
[21:49] <istvan_> where is the .bashrc?
[21:49] <epictetus> or in ~/.bashrc
[21:49] <epictetus> it is in your home directory
[21:49] <pilkarn> what is richard stallmans advice to single-player-game developers? because subscription fees arent an option and unless they want to pay to see me sing at concerts how the hell do I make people pay when they have the source code and can compile it themselves?
[21:49] <Titan8990> istvan_, is every users home folder
[21:49] <guntbert> !ot | pilkarn
[21:49] <epictetus> pilkarn: Stallman actually sees a huge difference between "tools" (i.e. OSes, Apps, etc) and "games"
[21:50] <Titan8990> pilkarn, unless you are copy and pasting GNU code, you don't have to make it open source.....
[21:50] <p3ngu1n> LOL Epictetus.  so true.
[21:50] <istvan_> in my .bashrc i have -- export GELATOHOME="/opt/nvidia/gelato" -- but it still errors out
[21:51] <Flamittor> does ubuntu come pre installed with a firewall?
[21:51] <Titan8990> istvan_, you have to relog after editing your .bashrc
[21:51] <mespejel> hello
[21:51] <fearful> prince_jammys: Do you know if I can just run one whole sudo apt-get install on Xubuntu if I do a clean system install with Xubuntu
[21:51] <prince_jammys> istvan_: just open a new terminal
[21:51] <jdmnynja> titan8990: it says to download the packages manually. I did so but the guy says the unpack them with file roller and copy the missing files in the directories. I have the stuff downloaded but I am having trouble copying the files over.
[21:51] <Titan8990> istvan_, or can just set the variable in the terminal

[21:52] <prince_jammys> fearful: i don't understand the question
[21:52] <mespejel> is there another way to configure my display? displayconfig.gtk is not working for me for some reason
[21:52] <jdmnynja> titan8990: i just don't know what to do after i've downloaded the package.
[21:52] <istvan_> to be more specific i am using Frappe in blender 3D and i get the error "GELATOHOME environment variable not set"
[21:52] <Titan8990> istvan_, if the following returns your varibale, the the problem is not with the variable:    echo $GELATOHOME
[21:52] <jmyers> hi
[21:52] <istvan_> oh, ok that works
[21:53] <istvan_> the echo that is

[21:53] <ryanakca> Are there any IPv6 firewalls available in Intrepid?
[21:53] <Titan8990> jdmnynja, I don't have any experience unpackaging .deb,   see:   man dpkg
[21:53] <prince_jammys> fearful: yeah, you can install another desktop environment with no problem
[21:53] <Titan8990> jdmnynja, looks like:    dpkg -x /path/to/.deb
[21:54] <felicia> for some reason, my backlight level adjustments dont work unless i restart acpi every time i reboot
[21:54] <prince_jammys> fearful: you can have both ubuntu and xubuntu desktop installed. if you later want to make it "pure xfce", you can
[21:55] <fearful> prince_jammys Yea I was thinking of doing that, what would I have to install to make it pure xfce?
[21:55] <redspire> Uh, I was messing with my pam module configuration and I seem to have hosed my system.

[21:55] <Huufarted> Question:  In a laptop, swapping HDDs.  Currently 160 GB, 80GB is Windows XP, 70GB is Ubuntu, 10GB is restore partition.  Moving all of this to a 500 GB Partition and allocating 340 GB as a third partition (if possible  as FAT32).  What's the best program to use for this?
[21:56] <felicia> can someone help me write a script so i can run sudo /etc/init.d/acpid restart every time i boot my computer?
[21:56] <amathis> does installing php5 and mysql with apt-get include mysqli?
[21:56] <Huufarted> correction to above:  Moving to a 500GB HDD, not 500GB Partition
[21:56] <attila> by accident i deleted knetwork manager on my interpid ibex
[21:56] <felicia> i dont even know where to start
[21:56] <attila> what can i do??
[21:56] <fearful> prince_jammys Thanks:p
[21:56] <redspire> I was able to reboot the system into a root prompt -- anyone know how to reconfigure pam.d to use the default set of modules?
[21:56] <imri303> felicia couldn't you run it from rc.local?
[21:57] <hlm> what program cam I use for viewing and compiling c++ sourcecode?
[21:58] <attila> by accident i deleted knetwork manager on my interpid ibex what can i do??
[21:58] <kingsley> felicia: At least the debian distribution of linux, and possibly also ubuntu, which is based on debian, automatically executes scripts in /etc/init.d when you boot.
[21:58] <glitsj16> amathis: php5-mysql contains the PHP mysqli interface yes
[21:58] <imri303> any GDM/Login wizards out there?
[21:58] <imri303> attila can't you reinstall it?
[21:58] <fearful> prince_jammys: Thanks so much works like a charm

[21:58] <amathis> glitsj16, ok, thanks
[21:58] <|Dreams|> does anyone know of a script to install alsa 1.0.19?
[21:58] <attila> no network connection any more
[21:58] <|Dreams|> the one i found doesnt work
[21:58] <bacaci|work> any chance that there is going to be an apt repository containing libapache2-mod-mono2 for use with mono-apache-server2 ?
[21:59] <genii> bacaci|work: PErhaps they'll have more knowledge on that in #ubuntu-server
[21:59] <kingsley> felicia: if you boot, and suspect that "/etc/init.d/acpid start" was not run, perhaps you could add at line toward the top of it, like "touch /tmp/a_file".

[22:38] <fde> Entirely too different to sysvinit for my liking
[22:38] <ikonia> lsb_release -a
[22:38] <kingsley> felicia: How do you normally adjust the brightness?
[22:39] <felicia> kingsley: if i dont run 'sudo /etc/init.d/acpid restart', i have to use the command line to do it
[22:39] <pr3d4t0r> Q. I am validating a business case for using Ubuntu server instead of Red Hat/CentOS for a production environment.  Can you please help me find some data points?  Thanks in advance.  I'm googling for information but any pointers are welcime.
[22:39] <pjsturgeon> i have set up samba shares on ubuntu server, writeable, guests ok = yes. i see them but when i enter a folder and try to make a new file/folder inside, it wont let me

[22:40] <felicia> kingsley: using 'sudo nvclock -S 10' or whatever i want the percentage to be
[22:40] <angeleye> i want to go into hacking  and programming i m very new to linux  can any one help me by being my mentor pm me
[22:40] <fde> pr3d4t0r: #ubuntu-server would likely be better for your questions... but if I wasn't in #ubuntu atm, I would seriously advise against that switch
[22:40] <felicia> kingsley: but if i restart it, i can use fn+f5/f6
[22:40] <guntbert> pr3d4t0r: that might be better in #ubuntu-server or #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:40] <DigitalKiwi> lolbuntu-server
[22:41] <burkmat> angeleye, Go to Wikipedia, find "computer". Then click every single link on the site, and read the articles. and click every link in every linked page. and so on. When you've read all of that, come back and see if you can't rephrase that (or apologize for your previous behavior). :)
[22:41] <pr3d4t0r> fde, guntbert: Cool - I'm heading to that channel.  Thanks for your help.
[22:41] <kingsley> felicia: Is my understanding correct that neither 'sudo nvclock -S 10' or fn+f5/f6 work until you do '/etc/init.d/acpid restart'?
[22:41] <fde> pr3d4t0r: strictly speaking about technical matters... CentOS will serve you far better than Ubuntu will...
[22:41] <tuxflavrdwafls> HI!  i finally got the cube figured out.  thanks for your help.  when I enable the raining effect all of my windows and desktops turn blank.  why is that?
[22:42] <DigitalKiwi> because the cube is fail ;)
[22:42] <_VIM_> burkmat: beat me to it. Was going to say something along those lines ;)
[22:42] <felicia> kingsley, no just fn+f5/f6
[22:42] <Flamittor> exit loging out
[22:42] <burkmat> ;)
[22:42] <tuxflavrdwafls> sorry, not following
[22:42] <fde> DigitalKiwi: you are starting to resemble a troll... stop
[22:42] <DigitalKiwi> uh oh
[22:42] <regeya> !polite
[22:43] <DigitalKiwi> it is known that compiz is buggy :(
[22:43] <DigitalKiwi> sorry, compiz-fusion
[22:43] <kingsley> felicia: Is my understanding correct that 'sudo nvclock -S 10' seems to work after booting, but fn+f5/f6 does not work until you do '/etc/init.d/acpid restart'?
[22:43] <felicia> kingsley: yes
[22:43] <_VIM_> DigitalKiwi: what ISNT buggy in the computer/tech world?
[22:44] <Uplink> i cant hear my audacity when it plays an imported mp3 file
[22:44] <Dilpickle1> hey yall
[22:44] <DigitalKiwi> well compiz-fusion is known for it XD
[22:44] <burkmat> _VIM_, "computer/tech" world? i'd just go for "world" :p
[22:44] <_VIM_> lmao!
[22:44] <DigitalKiwi> most of the life mass of the world is insects
[22:44] <marius_ilina> ppl, I have the resolution set to 1024 * 768, but all the things seem to be huge...esrlier today I connected an external monitor to my laptop and since I disconnected it, my resolution seems not no work propperly
[22:45] <noblestar> I'mtrying to connect to the server at synthetic geeks does anyone know how to do that?
[22:45] <Dilpickle1> why is my comp booting into low graphics mode?
[22:45] <Myrtti> DigitalKiwi: do you have support question?
[22:45] <Telekinesis> Compiz-Fusion is working perfectly for me, just had to tweak it to my liking. Old drivers play a big part. =P
[22:45] <marius_ilina> what should I do to get it back to normal?
[22:45] <szrhawaii> how do i install screenlets
[22:45] <noblestar> >>>I was wondering how to connect to a different server?
[22:45] <hlm> how do I change my sound I hear when Ilog in?
[22:46] <Doonz> how do i force a rescan of of hard disks?
[22:46] <noblestar> I was trying to jion a preestablished channel
[22:46] <DigitalKiwi> Doonz: man shutdown
[22:46] <kingsley> felicia: What is the '-S 10' option to nvclock supposed to do?
[22:46] <Myrtti> noblestar: in which network?
[22:46] <rww> noblestar: In most IRC clients /server irc.example.com
[22:46] <noblestar> synthetic geeks
[22:46] <szrhawaii> xkill in terminal is a force quit
[22:46] <fde> marius_ilina: if you go into System > Preferences > Screen Resolution and change it back, does it take the setting? If not, you might have to log out/back in to get additional resolutions
[22:46] <Doonz> DigitalKiwi: so what your saying is the only way to do it is to shutdown the system and reboot??
[22:47] <DigitalKiwi> well..it depends on which partition you want to fsck
[22:47] <Royall> I have a folder in my Trash and apparently I don't have the permissions to delete it. Is there a way to empty the trash for a specific user in ternimal under sudo?
[22:47] <noblestar> I tried to write in irc.syntheticgeeks.com doesn't seem to work
[22:47] <felicia> kingsley: it changes the brightness to 10 percent
[22:47] <Myrtti> Doonz: most of the filesystem types can't be scanned while they're mounted
[22:47] <DigitalKiwi> if it's home or root or any partition you can't unmount, then yeah
[22:47] <Doonz> ok Its not a mounted drive
[22:47] <fde> Doonz: you probably want fsck ... it will check on reboot though if something bad happened
[22:47] <rww> Royall: sudo rm -rf /home/username/.local/share/Trash
[22:47] <DigitalKiwi> man fsck
[22:47] <tharvey> what is contained in directories such as /home/$USER/.fr-* ?  some sort of cache files?  I've got about 15GB in those dirs and would like to clean it up if I can
[22:47] <_VIM_> noblestar: can you ping that server? maybe it's down
[22:48] <Royall> rww: thanks!
[22:48] <kansan__> if i want to enable third party folks to FTP into my box at port 21.... do i need to do anything other than ensure that the port is open on the firewall?  [ubuntu hardy]
[22:48] <Titan8990> tharvey, lots of things are stored in hidden folders in home directorys
[22:48] <Titan8990> tharvey, application settings and etcx
[22:48] <noblestar> I just don't know what to type into get into it
[22:48] <fde> tharvey: would you happen to be french? looks like it has something to do with internationalization settings?
[22:48] <noblestar> It's running on my other computer but my husband set it up
[22:48] <Titan8990> tharvey, best not to delete them unless you don't use the specified application anymore
[22:48] <tharvey> fde, no not french
[22:48] <noblestar> I don't know what he did
[22:48] <kingsley> felicia: Is fn+f5/f6 how your vaio normally lets you control the screen's brightness?
[22:48] <Doonz> ok ill give you guys more info. I have a port multiplier card. Its hotswap. I had to replaced a failed drive. im trying to figure out howto make the system see the new drive
[22:49] <fde> tharvey: can you pastebin an example file?
[22:49] <tharvey> Titan8990, well I'm trying to determine what app could have created them... seems strange to have 15GB of data in hidden dirs
[22:49] <felicia> kingsley, yes, but it doesnt work until i run 'sudo /etc/init.d/acpid restart'
[22:49] <hlm> how do I change my sound I hear when Ilog in?
[22:50] <jfanaian> Hi, I have a question regarding bandwidth on an Ubuntu server. I just had a really big overage on bandwidth in the past few days and I can't figure out why. I ran webalizer on all my vhosts but it doesn't add up to even 10% of the bandwidth used up. Where else could I look?
[22:50] <Titan8990> tharvey, well, wine for example, stores everything the .wine directory
[22:50] <jfanaian> I have ntop installed now, but that won't help me find out what happened.
[22:50] <kingsley> felicia: Hold on...
[22:50] <Titan8990> tharvey, so if you run wine, a major chuck is prolly set up there
[22:50] <_VIM_> noblestar: well it pings just fine for me, it should work,,, you typed /server irc.syntheticgeeks.com in a irc client correct?
[22:50] <Titan8990> tharvey, evolution sends POP mail to a hidden folder, etc
[22:50] <tharvey> Titan8990, I understand hidden dirs... just trying to understand what 'owns' these
[22:51] <tharvey> looks like in one of the dirs there is a tarball of perhaps my home dir... some automated backup software?
[22:51] <Titan8990> tharvey, havn't heard of it, but possible
[22:51] <fde> tharvey: are you using Mint? Kubuntu? afaik regular Ubuntu doesn't come with backup software
[22:51] <tharvey> ie, /home/tharvey/.fr-FFUIUA/tharvey (only file in that dir) according to hexdump is a ustar
[22:51] <tharvey> standard Ubuntu 8.04 with gnome desktop
[22:52] <Titan8990> tharvey, make a temporary backup and delete it
[22:52] <szrhawaii> how do I install a screenlet
[22:52] <Titan8990> tharvey, replace if it causes problems
[22:52] <tharvey> file was written to last like 6 mo's ago
[22:52] <Titan8990> szrhawaii, install the screenlets package in synaptic....
[22:52] <jessica_> a
[22:52] <szrhawaii> thanks titan
[22:52] <marius_ilina> fde: the resolution is fine, only the way things look is wrong. is sais it's 1024*768 but it looks like 800*600
[22:52] <Titan8990> tharvey, you don't have to make the backup but I make backups of everything before I make changes
[22:53] <kingsley> felicia: Thank you for your patience. I think I now understand the problem. (And I wanted to answer the phone.)
[22:53] <rrva> how do I force the use of a specific wifi network.. now network-manager just auto-selects one..
[22:53] <fde> marius_ilina: hmm... try changing the fonts settings? widgets are resizable based on font size
[22:53] <tharvey> there are three .fr-* dirs each with what looks like a tarball of my home dir - I didn't creat them myself
[22:53] <rrva> i tried wifi-radar, but it seems broken
[22:53] <Titan8990> tharvey, but then again ubuntu reinstall proccess is not days long like it is with my distro
[22:53] <Doonz> how do i force a rescan of of hard disks? I have a port multiplier card. Its hotswap. I had to replaced a failed drive. im trying to figure out howto make the system see the new drive
[22:53] <t3mp3st> hi all; I'm having some serious wifi issues. I'm running 8.04 on a dell m1330 with a broadcom wifi board. I can only connect (sometimes!) to unsecured networks, and speeds are beyond unacceptable. I'm not using the broadcom driver that appears in Hardware Settings. I was wondering if someone could point me to a fix for this issue (I've searched the forms, but I couldn't quite find "the" answer)
[22:53] <Titan8990> Doonz, if your board support hotswapping, it will show up immediatly on its own
[22:54] <kingsley> felicia: I'm aware that power managment software, like acpi, tends to be more problematic.
[22:54] <_VIM_> Titan8990: 'my distro'?
[22:54] <Titan8990> Doonz, if there is a problem, it will be listed in:    /var/log/messages
[22:54] <Doonz> thanx
[22:54] <fde> Doonz: dmesg should have picked it up... and fdisk should list it... just probably fstab doesn't know about it yet
[22:54] <Titan8990> _VIM_, the distro I use, not a "linux from scrath" if thats what your asking
[22:54] <rrva> t3mp3st: is wpasupplicant set up?
[22:54] <t3mp3st> rrva: how can I tell?
[22:54] <Doonz> sudo fdisk -l doesnt list it
[22:54] <fde> Doonz: dmesg is the command that just echo's /var/log/messages ... so either are relevant
[22:54] <imri303> anyone have any experience running X apps from the login screen via customcommand?
[22:54] <kingsley> felicia: Instead of re-inventing the wheel, how much time have you spent searching google's web, and usenet, indices to see if anyone else has already solved this problem?
[22:55] <kinja-sheep> !kernel
[22:55] <fde> Doonz: if it lacks a partition table, you'll have to create one first
[22:55] <felicia> kingsley: thats why i just want to write a script to restart it on every boot
[22:55] <redspire> Anyone know how to reinstall pam configuration files?
[22:55] <_VIM_> Titan8990: ah, what distro do you normally use? Just being nosy :D
[22:55] <rrva> t3mp3st: dpkg -s wpasupplicant
[22:56] <Doonz> fde ok how do i get the disk to show up
[22:56] <Titan8990> fde, not ture, dmesg echo's /var/log/dmesg
[22:56] <wubrgamer> hey guys
[22:56] <wubrgamer> i'm just curious
[22:56] <rrva> t3mp3st: and pgrep -l wpa_supplicant
[22:56] <Titan8990> _VIM_, gentoo
[22:56] <wubrgamer> could you help me with xmodmap
[22:56] <wubrgamer> i need some help figuring out how to remap my right super key into a control key
[22:56] <fde> felicia: upstart.org ... look into how to create 'events' ... or you can likely throw it onto the end of rc.local (before exit is called) as a dirty fix
[22:56] <wubrgamer> control_R key preferably
[22:56] <wubrgamer> !xmodmap
[22:56] <kinja-sheep> For some reason, Ubuntu doesn't enable the Wifi in the kernel, I want to enable it.  Is !kernel the correct path for me?  I would have to compile the kernel myself.  Right?
[22:56] <Titan8990> _VIM_, ultimate geek distro, but not a good choice if you want some that "just works" like ubuntu
[22:56] <adante> hi guys when i try to ssh into my box it disconnects me as soon as i connect, is there an obvious solution to this?
[22:56] <t3mp3st> rrva: pgrep yields nothing
[22:57] <t3mp3st> rrva: ah, wait
[22:57] <t3mp3st> rrva: dpkg seems to say that it is installed
[22:57] <PhoenixP3K> Am I the only one who hates the System Menu from Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex?
[22:57] <t3mp3st> "Status: install ok installed"
[22:57] <DigitalKiwi> Titan8990: ever tried arch?
[22:57] <_VIM_> Titan8990: cool, yeah, my old computer could never handle to load of compiling
[22:57] <fde> Titan8990: Gentoo fights with you too much... Arch is the true geek distro  :P
[22:57] <marius_ilina> fde: doesn't work...I changed the font size for everything and the font type. things are just too wide
[22:57] <DigitalKiwi> fde: troll
[22:58] <fde> DigitalKiwi: true... should have moved it to #ubuntu-offtopic at least
[22:58]  * DigitalKiwi by no means trolls
[22:58] <DigitalKiwi> no siree
[22:59] <marius_ilina> it's 1024*768 but things look so wrong. and there's no greater value than 10248768
[22:59] <_VIM_> !away > felix-da-catz_zz
[23:00] <fde> marius_ilina: as I said, log out and back in... monitors are supposed to be hot swappable, but it could be taking away some resolutions
[23:00] <mustangg1> hey the chan. Any users of keytouch (editor)  who might know how I can select my device event? I am currently unable to make a selection from detected items.
[23:00] <marius_ilina> I logged out twice, I rebooted and I shut it down once
[23:00] <marius_ilina> nothing happens
[23:00] <felicia> fde: should i be worried that 'sudo' is a requirement when i run it in terminal?
[23:00] <jfanaian> Does anyone know where I could look to find out why so much outgoing bandwidth was used in my Ubuntu server? Tried running webalizer on all vhosts but that doens't account for even 10% of the usage.
[23:01] <PhoenixP3K> anyone knows how to change the behavior of the system menu in Ubuntu?
[23:01] <KenBW22> am i right in thinking "Create new wireless network" is a way to create a wireless access point using an ethernet-connected PC?
[23:01] <fde> felicia: no, upstart will be running as root...
[23:02] <wubrgamer> how do I reload my .xmodmap config?
[23:02] <wubrgamer> anyone?
[23:02] <wubrgamer> HELP
[23:02] <aleax> Hello. I'm looking for an e-mail client can access an IMAP account in read-only mode. Any idea?
[23:02] <fde> wubrgamer: source it
[23:02] <Flare183> !patients | wubrgamer
[23:02] <felicia> fde: can you link me to some type of tutorial? im kinda inexperience with linux
[23:02] <fde> !patience
[23:02] <Flare183> !patient | wubrgamer
[23:02] <Flare183> ><
[23:02] <Flare183> crap
[23:03] <Commie_Cary> why is team fortress 2 randomly crashing
[23:03] <fde> !upstart | felicia
[23:03] <kingsley> felicia: It seems to me that the advantages of searching Google's web and usenet indices to see if anyone else solved the real problem, instead of simply restarting apcid, would be 1.) You might learn something interesting. 2.) You might solve the core problem, which would allow you to use fn+f5/f6, and 3.) the core problem wouldn't pop up some other way.
[23:03] <PhoenixP3K> aleax : if it's read only isn't that POP behavior then?
[23:03] <hlm> Commie_Cary, dont forget TF2 is for windows, unexpected results WILL occur
[23:04] <Commie_Cary> hlm, but it has a plat rating
[23:04] <Titan8990> sorry, if i was helping anyone, got d/ced
[23:04] <aleax> PhoenixP3K: I can't have folders with POP, can I?
[23:04] <adante> hi folks, i'm trying to ssh into my box, it keeps closing the connection as soon as i connect, i don't want it to do this, how can i stop it? i've tried setting usedns no but it still does this after restart of sshd
[23:04] <hlm> Commie_Cary, what do you mean?
[23:04] <Commie_Cary> hlm, winehq rates it as platimum
[23:04] <felicia> kingsley: the thing is, i tried already, and my fix for fn+f5/f6 involves editing a lot of files, so i doubt someone will have the same problem
[23:04] <imri303> most broadcom chips i have had experience with I have had to use the driver from broadcom
[23:05] <hlm> Commie_Cary, does your videocard properly support it?
[23:05] <detrix> I got a usb flash drive thats not automounting, trying to figure out why
[23:05] <PhoenixP3K> aleax ; depends on the client, but with filters you can have them moved from the regular inbox to folders you specify. Basicly you create similar filters then what you have on the server side (web email or else)
[23:05] <kingsley> felicia: What did you already try?
[23:05] <imri303> felicia have you just tried putting it in /etc/rc.local ?
[23:06] <PhoenixP3K> I'm looking for a way to change the Gnome menu in ubuntu, I want it like it was in Hardy
[23:06] <PhoenixP3K> the log in, shut down options I mean
[23:07] <aleax> PhoenixP3K: But I can't access the folders at all with POP. There's just The Inbox. I want to test the IMAP account but don't want any changes like flags on messages ...
[23:08] <detrix> How do I find the /dev/sd?? that my usb flash drive is in, I have it pluged into a 4 port hub.
[23:08] <imri303> detrix run dmesg
[23:09]  * kingsley needs to go soon...
[23:10] <PhoenixP3K> aleax : I see what you mean. I use Opera for IMAP access of my Gmail, I do disable all spam filters to make sure I don't loose email. But I think that by nature IMAP was made so that the client could act on the account as if it was the mail server itself
[23:11] <felicia> imri303: apparently, whatever makes it go wrong happens later, so it doesnt work
[23:11] <jove> Hello All, does anyone know how to convert .toast to ISO file ?

[23:16] <tyrosine2> why does Ubuntu install GNOME by default over KDE?

[23:17] <Sal__> also i know this is a ubuntu chan

[23:17] <mn> Does anyone know where I could get help with assembly?  #assembler fails
[23:17] <tyrosine2> DigitalKiwi: I'm serious.  I haven't used kubuntu - is GNOME superior in performance to KDE on Ubuntu?  If so, how

[23:17] <paradoxgo> How do I get rid of the delayed response when I click on my touchpad?
[23:17] <leafw> Sal__: try "vncserver :16" on server and then "vncviewer -via user@server-ip localhost:16"
[23:17] <DigitalKiwi> it is preference

[23:17] <DigitalKiwi> I prefer neither of them :/

[23:17] <detrix> gnome

[23:17] <IndyGunFreak> tyrosine2: its preference.... i personally don't like KDE, but a lot of folks love it.
[23:18]  * DigitalKiwi just uses the best app available
[23:18] <DigitalKiwi> not the one gnome or kde think is the best

[23:19] <detrix> imri303:  yes
[23:19] <imri303> detrix I think gnome-volume-manager is responsible for automount
[23:19] <felicia> kingsley: i think i found the problem
[23:19] <felicia> i jsut dont know how to fix it
[23:20] <Anvbis> I've been trying to get ubuntu fonts to look impressive, and I have the truetype fonts...but they don't look quite so hot - I was thinking of using clear type - does anybody know how to do that?
[23:21] <detrix> imri303:  I have not played with that yet.  do I just use the shell to access the gnome-volume-manager?
[23:21] <imri303> detrix I am checking on my system. One Sec :)
[23:21] <fde> Anvbis: you can't really... it is patented by microsoft ... you can do neat tricks though via System > Preferences > Appearence > Fonts under "Details"
[23:22] <fde> Anvbis: same basic outcome, just don't call it cleartype  ;)
[23:22] <Anvbis> fde: this sounds counter ubuntu but isn't - what settings are best to make it look like Windows Vista fonts?
[23:22] <Anvbis> ie what fonts for which categories?
[23:23] <fde> Anvbis: I use subpixel smoothing, and full hinting
[23:23] <Sarai> My laptop dual boots vista and ubuntu, which I installed using ubuntu. Vista has crashed and is unbootable- frankly I'm not too torn up about it since I was wanting to ditch it anyway. The only thing I had stored on there was my music. Any way of accessing that part of my hard drive from ubuntu?
[23:23] <Sarai> sorry, installed using WUBI
[23:23] <fde> I also use FreeSans and FreeMono (for fixed width)
[23:24] <Anvbis> ok, thanks fde

[23:25] <DigitalKiwi> Sarai: sure, mount it
[23:25] <fde> Not everyone likes them though, but that font looks best on my CRT monitor... but those details options should look good with most any font Anvbis
[23:25] <gescape> Sarai: have you tried to mount vista partition?
[23:25] <Sarai> gescape: I don't see any partitions to mount
[23:25] <imri303> detrix not finding gnome-volume-manager on my system :( I am not sure what automounts usb drives
[23:26] <DigitalKiwi> sudo fdisk -l
[23:26] <gescape> Sarai: parted
[23:26] <Anvbis> fde: I'm in vista now, and I notice a kind of shadowing but didn't see that option in ubuntu, do you know what I'm talking about? Is that the clear type?
[23:26] <hlm> is there a way to make the panels stay the system color scheme, but with opacity?
[23:26] <gescape> Sarai: man mount
[23:26] <Sarai> ">	sudo fdisk -l"

[23:38] <RichW> KenBW22, Thats never worked for me.
[23:38] <Titan8990> filosofixit, are you sure that the fakeRAID you have is supported?
[23:38] <Until_It_Sleeps> Help!!!! I installed Windows 7 onto an empty partition, and now Grub has vanished off my laptop!

[23:38] <Sarai> gescape: already installed
[23:38] <Titan8990> filosofixit, and lastly, are you aware that RAID0 is both slower and less fault tolerent that single disc set ups?
[23:38] <MEESO_THELIOMA> this is weird, i burned an ISO of 8.10 on both a DVD and a CD
[23:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Until_It_Sleeps There is the answer to that in detail..  just ask if you have questions about it
[23:38] <MEESO_THELIOMA> via iso from ubuntu website
[23:38] <gescape> Sarai: and try something like "mount -t ntfs /dev/sda2 /mnt/vista"
[23:38] <MEESO_THELIOMA> and the autoloader.............gets a glitched graphic

[23:39] <MEESO_THELIOMA> i get line/graphics on first window, and installer freezes
[23:39] <filosofixit> Titan8990  : I thought Raid0 should be faster, but unsecure
[23:39] <RichW> KenBW22, Well it never seems to appear on any other devices and then after a while it reverts to old settings.
[23:39] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter > MEESO_THELIOMA

[23:39] <fde> redspike: adobe reader is proprietary, so we can't help you with that...
[23:39] <KenBW22> RichW: yea thats what i get :(
[23:39] <Sarai> gescape:  if I create the folder won'
[23:39] <Titan8990> filosofixit, raid does not affect security.... but it does effect fault tolerence
[23:39] <Sarai> t ther be nothing in it? (sorry hit the enter by accident)
[23:39] <gescape> Sarai: create what you want :)
[23:39] <Titan8990> filosofixit, and no, it is not faster, look up benchmarks and see for yourself

[23:40] <Sarai> gescape: so first i create the folder, then i mount it as root
[23:40] <Coded__> but 'sudo ifconfig -a' shows the same device
[23:40] <Coded__> any ideas
[23:40] <Coded__> ?
[23:41] <filosofixit> Titan8990 : hmm.... Can I find info on fakeRaid  on ubuntu.com maybe? I will investigate Raid0 a bit more now I think :) Thank you
