[00:00] <kpuljek> Wildburn: in windows it doesn't restart :S
[00:00] <cremmora> speed
[00:00] <sebsebseb> Wildburn: and you can try stuff from Live CD's
[00:00] <Wildburn> kpuljek:really tahts random
[00:00] <Guest53881> n8tuserf: i tried configuring grub myself and I didn't have any luck.  i got to some initramfs command prompt thing and typed in reboot to get back here
[00:00] <Wildburn> seb:true but just not sure what else Id want to run, been on ubuntu a long time now on the desktop
[00:00] <arbitrary> wildburn: Laptop graphics card then? My laptop has a geforce FX go 5200, which I think is earlier than that one, and it works fine with Ibex.
[00:00] <kpuljek> Wildburn: well, maybe it's due some configuration, or torrents, i really can't locate the problem
[00:00] <drewby> n8tuserf: i tried configuring grub myself and I didn't have any luck.  i got to some initramfs command prompt thing and typed in reboot to get back here
[00:00] <Dr_willis> ellanceo,  on some laptops you hit the whatever function-fkeys to enable the video out..   not all work that way. but many do.
[00:00] <sebsebseb> Wildburn: ok so something Ubuntu based maybe?
[00:00] <ellanceo> Tried that, no workie.
[00:00] <mezy_> did doesn't even save!!
[00:01] <ellanceo> I get a root prompt, but just don't know where to start
[00:01] <drewby> Does anyone know how to configure grub if I copy the files from inside the ubuntu install iso to an ext 2 partition and want to boot that partition?
[00:01] <Wildburn> seb: yeah, tbh last time I ran anything non Ubuntu was probably redhat 7, or Suse 2, or slackware 4, and that was years and years ago
[00:01] <arbitrary> Wildburn: I am using the
[00:01] <sebsebseb> drewby: hummmmmmmm
[00:01] <sebsebseb> !grub
[00:01] <arbitrary> NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver version 96
[00:01] <areay> how can i setup centralized logins for my network, so that home folders and usernames/passwords are kept on a server?
[00:01] <Wildburn> arbitrary: on geforce2 go?
[00:02] <drewby> sebsebseb: ?
[00:02]  * cremmora slaps Dr_willis around a bit with a large trout
[00:02] <sebsebseb> drewby: look above  I did a Grub one a while ago
[00:02] <sebsebseb> ,but not that long ago
[00:02] <arbitrary> Wildburn: on a geforce go 5200, which is an earler model I think.
[00:02]  * cremmora slaps arbitrary around a bit with a large trout
[00:02] <drewby> sebsebseb: i must not have been in here
[00:02] <Wildburn> arbitrary: technically thats the upgrade to the geforce2 go, which is the geforce 4 chipset, but close enough
[00:02]  * cremmora slaps sebsebseb around a bit with a large trout
[00:02] <kpuljek> any ideas why my router restarts every half an hour in linux, and in windows it works okay (up to 8 hours, didn't test more)?
[00:03] <Wildburn> arbitrary: what versions/kernel?
[00:03] <drewby> sebsebseb: it's not in my scrollback
[00:03] <Madpilot> cremmora, troutslapping can move to -offtopic, please
[00:03]  * cremmora slaps drewby around a bit with a large trout
[00:03] <ellanceo> So is there any way at all to display my fsck errors on an external? At all? I've already made 3 posts about this on the forums, but everyone there ignores me every time I make a post, so I've given up on that
[00:03] <Wildburn> arbitrary:the restricted drivers? or the whole glx/kernel/driver package from synaptic?
[00:03]  * drewby frowns.
[00:03] <cremmora> sorry
[00:03] <sebsebseb> Wildburn: yeah  Fedora Core 2 and 4,  then Ubuntu since second relse for me.    I just installed FC2,  no Live CD testing first or virtualization,  that came later for other distros.   anyway not used it myself, but Crunchbang is meant to be a very good  Ubuntu based distro
[00:03] <cremmora> lol
[00:03] <drewby> this is harrrrrrd.
[00:03] <Thirtysixway> How long can I extend a usb cable?
[00:03] <cremmora> 15 feet
[00:03] <Thirtysixway> I want to mount a webcam upstairs but my computer is downstairs.
[00:03] <cremmora> max
[00:03] <sebsebseb> !grub
[00:03] <Wildburn> seb: the only concern is is any other ubuntu based distro going to be able to load video drivers
[00:03] <sebsebseb> ok now the bot does it
[00:03] <cremmora> acording to the specs
[00:04] <drewby> alright guys i fond a link http://bayanijuan.blogspot.com/2007/07/howto-boot-ubuntu-fiesty-fawn-livecd.html
[00:04] <sebsebseb> Wildburn: yeah it's ashame that Nivida don't have opensource Linux drivers
[00:04] <arbitrary> Wildburn: Ibex, kernel: 2.6.27-11-generic
[00:04] <drewby> found*   There's so much documentation on this, but so much of it is crap or applies to slightly different situations that its hard to figure out.
[00:04] <Wildburn> arbitrary: restricted drivers?
[00:05] <arbitrary> Wildburn: Yes, restricted, version 96
[00:05] <drewby> alright guys i'm going to reboot
[00:05] <cremmora> you dont have to use grub if you dont wanto you can allwayd use win xp boot ini and add thye line witch it will get you into grub after the win boot screen
[00:05] <sebsebseb> yeah or you could even use lilo
[00:05] <sebsebseb> !lilo
[00:05] <Wildburn> seb: you sound like you know quite alot about linux? probably more about cli then I do at least, perhaps you could tell me where I would need to go to find possible errors on boot besides Xorg.0.log?
[00:05] <cremmora> you can use anithing you whant
[00:06] <Wildburn> really Arbitrary? well I am redling 8.10 cuz I dont care for 8.04 anymore since Ive got 8.10 on desktop, so after I reinstall ill give the restricted drivers a whack again
[00:06] <sebsebseb> Wildburn: no, but you could get an offical driver from Nivida for your card, and try that
[00:06] <cremmora> get you r self a spare machine load linux and screwwaround with it
[00:06] <Wildburn> seb:yeah think the problem there was everytime it needed to build kernel module it failed
[00:07] <cremmora> dont be afraid of the software
[00:07] <sebsebseb> Wildburn: yes the ones in the repo can be  rubbishey
[00:07] <sebsebseb> Wildburn: well  next Ubuntu end of April, and maybe you get more luck there :)
[00:07] <ellanceo> Does anyone know how to display the output before GDM is started to an external? My monitor on my laptop is broken, and I can't read fsck errors to get it to boot.
[00:07] <Wildburn> Seb: what I was getting at is do you know how to manually build the kernel module from the restricted drivers?
[00:07] <cremmora> seb wahts your real name?
[00:07] <sebsebseb> Wildburn: I will upgrade when the beta is out
[00:07] <cremmora> sebastian ?
[00:08] <sebsebseb> for anyone else reading this, never upgrade Ubuntu early,  unless  it's beta,  or your a developer
[00:08] <sebsebseb> lerant my lesson with Gutsy Gibbon
[00:08] <uncategorized> hi, i'm trying:  aptitude reinstall libgtk2.0-0
[00:08] <uncategorized> and i get:   I wasn't able to locate file for the libgtk2.0-0 package
[00:08] <arbitrary> Wildburn: Good luck with 8.10, it worked for me :)
[00:08] <Wildburn> Ellanceo: change the monitor in xorg.conf and see if that gets it across
[00:08] <uncategorized> why is that?
[00:08] <cremmora> damm to geekey for me  bye
[00:08] <ellanceo> My laptop monitor is broken
[00:08] <cremmora> !exit
[00:08] <sebsebseb> ,because I ended up with problems, untill Gutsy was  on the beta
[00:08] <Wildburn> thanks Arbitrary: ill be here during since irc is on the desktop, makes rebooting a million times easier when getting assistance lol
[00:08] <ellanceo> I can't see anything I am editing to the Xorg file
[00:09] <ellanceo> All I have is a root prompt, I'm looking for more of a commant I can just enter to switch it.
[00:09] <Wildburn> ellanceo: in terminal sudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf make sure the x is capitalized in X11
[00:09] <Wildburn> er and put an editor in there
[00:09] <Dr_willis> ellanceo,  you can seee the grub menu and the console?
[00:09] <sebsebseb> cremmora: what does it matter what my real name is?
[00:09] <sebsebseb> why do you want to know?
[00:09] <techsupport> how can i archive a directory and it's contents with tar ?
[00:09] <Wildburn> ellanceo: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[00:09] <sebsebseb> !tar
[00:10] <ellanceo> Like I said, my LAPTOP MONITOR IS BROKEN, I can barely see anything on the screen at all. Yes I see the very top left corner but that is it.
[00:10] <Zykotic> techsupport, "tar cvf file.tar path/"
[00:10] <ellanceo> I can see GRUB start, and then I get some fsck errors. Exactly what I don't know.
[00:10] <Wildburn> ellanceo:does it have an external monitor port?
[00:10] <sebsebseb> ellanceo: ah right yes that issue
[00:10] <ellanceo> Yes.
[00:10] <ellanceo> But the external doesn't kick on until GDM starts.
[00:10] <uncategorized> so how can i reinstall libgtk?
[00:10] <ellanceo> Which won't because of the fsck errors.
[00:10] <sebsebseb> ellanceo: ok graphics card drivers gone bad?
[00:10] <ellanceo> So I'm in quite the pickle here.
[00:10] <Wildburn> ellanceo:plug in a monitor to external port, then run recovery boot instead of graphical boot
[00:11] <ellanceo> Doubt it, it's never kicked on before GDM
[00:11] <Wildburn> ellanceo:recovery boot should output to both screens
[00:11] <cremmora> i couldent stay out
[00:11] <ellanceo> Ah!
[00:11]  * cremmora slaps ellanceo around a bit with a large trout
[00:11] <ellanceo> Will try right now, will be afk so please hold your responses. THANKS FOR THE HELP!
[00:11]  * cremmora slaps Wildburn around a bit with a large trout
[00:11] <Wildburn> np
[00:11] <cremmora> lol
[00:11] <crdlb> uncategorized: uh, you upgraded part of your system to jaunty?
[00:11] <uncategorized> yeah
[00:11] <Wildburn> hey crdlb
[00:11] <crdlb> that's bad
[00:12] <Wildburn> lol
[00:12] <sebsebseb> uncategorized: beta is uhmmmmm soonish
[00:12] <uncategorized> i'd like to avoid that
[00:12] <sebsebseb> uncategorized: alpha 6 probably be ok,  but  bound to be bugs here and there hummmmm
[00:12] <uncategorized> is there no way to reinstall  libgtk
[00:12] <sebsebseb> uncategorized: upgrading to the beta should be alright
[00:12] <Wildburn> uncategorized, cant you just reinstall it with synaptic? change your sources list to the intrepid ones first
[00:12] <ellanceo> Haha, Ok so I can't see which entry in GRUB is recovery...how many down is it?
[00:12] <mezy_> how save changes on a usb after using unetbootin to install ubuntu?
[00:12] <Wildburn> one
[00:12] <uncategorized> Wildburn: there are no more jaunty servers in sources.list
[00:13] <uncategorized> but typing aptitude reinstall libgtk2.0-0 gives an error
[00:13] <uncategorized> that it can't find the libgtk2.0-0 package
[00:13] <uncategorized> and that it might need to be manually fixed
[00:13] <Wildburn> Ellanceo: grub on 8.10 only has 3 options normal boot, recovery boot memtest
[00:13] <sebsebseb> uncategorized: ok  I get what you done :d   you thought you could get a later program by using the janty version?
[00:13] <Dr_willis> mezy_,  unetbootin dosent support 'persistant' save's last i looked with ubuntu. ONCE you install ubuntu via the unetbootin-thumbdrive. you boot the system normally...
[00:13] <uncategorized> yup
[00:13] <mezy_> darn!!
[00:13] <uncategorized> sebsebseb: i wrongly hoped only a few non-system important packages would be upgraded
[00:13] <Gartral1> why can't i save anything as an SVG??
[00:13] <crdlb> uncategorized: you probably don't have the intrepid repos in your sources.list either now ...
[00:13] <sebsebseb> uncategorized: it's not as simple as that,  things  have to be ported to the previous Ubuntu release.  for example take  Banshee,  Hardy Heron has a rubbish version, but using  ppa   can  run the Intrepid Ibex version there
[00:13] <Wildburn> uncategorized: try recovery console and fix broken packages
[00:14] <crdlb> uncategorized: it doesn't work like that
[00:14] <sebsebseb> uncategorized: find out about the ppa's
[00:14] <sebsebseb> !ppa
[00:14] <ellanceo> For some reason I have what looks like 9 entries in Grub, I selected the second one and now i just get a bunch text I can't read, and nothing on the external
[00:14] <uncategorized> crdlb: i manually edit my sources.list, so intrepid is definitely in there and jaunty definitely not
[00:14] <sebsebseb> ellanceo: ok yeah loads of kernels?
[00:14] <Wildburn> ellanceo:what version are you on?
[00:15] <Dr_willis> ellanceo,  if the laptop has a svideo out - try hooking that up also?
[00:15] <Gartral1> i can't find the package needed to allow gimp to create a SVG file
[00:15] <ellanceo> I'm on intrepid
[00:15] <uncategorized> Wildburn: can i initiate a fix broken packages without a recovery console?  just from the tty1
[00:15] <ellanceo> Looks like it's just doing another fsck
[00:15] <crdlb> uncategorized: did you sudo apt-get update?
[00:15] <Dr_willis> I dident think gimp could save svg.. since gimp is a BITMAP editor type program.. not a vector type editor program
[00:15] <Wildburn> uncategorized: believe so, but one of the more experienced CLIers will have to tell you the command
[00:15] <Dr_willis> but i may be wrong
[00:15] <ellanceo> Yeah, it's just fsck'ing again
[00:15] <crdlb> uncategorized: you need to figure out a way to find all packages upgraded to the jaunty version and downgrade them
[00:15] <ellanceo> more like fsck'ing up to me
[00:15] <Wildburn> ellanceo:sounds like you need to reinstall from scratch
[00:16] <uncategorized> crdlb: yes, apt-get update and also reinstalled the packages....i have reinstall all the explicit dependencies except libgtk2.0-0
[00:16] <crdlb> uncategorized: but note that doing that is completely unsupported, and may very well break your system
[00:16] <ellanceo> Mother--
[00:16] <drewbert> n8tuser, sebsebseb, i managed to finally boot it, thanks
[00:16] <uncategorized> and i can't seem to get libgtk to reinstall
[00:16] <drewbert> You guys don't know how many things i tried or how long i googled.
[00:16] <drewbert> Go team irc.
[00:16] <crdlb> in particular, an upgrade to glibc is a big deal ...
[00:16] <ellanceo> I've had this fsck problem before, but I just can't remember what I did to take care of it.
[00:16] <uncategorized> E: I wasn't able to locate file for the libgtk2.0-0 package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.
[00:16] <Wildburn> uncategorized:why cant you reboot to recovery?
[00:16] <sebsebseb> drewbert: yeah  IRC is good
[00:16] <sebsebseb> for this kind of stuff
[00:17] <ellanceo> And reinstalling from scratch isn't exactly a good idea right now
[00:17] <ellanceo> Hey, it beeped
[00:17] <Gartral1> i can't find the package needed to allow gimp to create a SVG file
[00:17] <uncategorized> Wildburn: don't have a CD and would rather not create one...seems unneccessary...i should be able to do it from any command line
[00:17] <sebsebseb> ellanceo: why not?
[00:17] <drewbert> alright well I'm taking off! thanks!
[00:17] <sebsebseb> !cd
[00:17] <sebsebseb> !iso
[00:17] <sebsebseb> !install
[00:17] <Wildburn> uncategorized: you dont need a cd for recovery, reboot hit esc when grub is up
[00:17] <ellanceo> I have school stuff that I NEED tomorrow, or else I basically fail my class completely
[00:18] <ellanceo> Yup, back to root prompt
[00:18] <DarkKnight> i have installed XP in virtualbox....why is it that i can't move my mouse outside the window? can anyone tell me how i can get over this problem
[00:18] <Dr_willis> ellanceo,  so you can see the terminal/login prompt?
[00:18] <ellanceo> Well yeah
[00:18] <crdlb> Wildburn: what is going to the recover console going to accomplish?
[00:18] <arbitrary> Gartral1: why do you need to make an SVG in gimp? Can you use inkscape instead?
[00:18] <crdlb> recovery*
[00:18] <Wildburn> ellanceo:install and use the partitioner to shrink your existing install, then just mount that drive in the new install
[00:18] <sebsebseb> DarkKnight: it's right ctrl by default
[00:18] <ellanceo> Not login propt
[00:18] <ellanceo> just root
[00:18] <Zykotic> DarkKnight, right CTRL key will release mouse grab in VirtualBox
[00:18] <Gartral1> i don't have inkscape
[00:18] <ellanceo> root@TheThingGreyBox#
[00:18] <Dr_willis> ellanceo,  you can transfer files to somthing else with that.
[00:19] <uncategorized> so maybe one of you can *almost* do what i did
[00:19] <mezy_> is there a way to install ubunfu onto a usb and have it save changes
[00:19] <DarkKnight> thank you
[00:19] <ellanceo> Well crap.
[00:19] <arbitrary> Gartral1: Yeah, but its freely available in package manager, etc.
[00:19] <vbabiy> Should I use threads or process for this: I will have a process that will need to go out on the network pull some data and send an email. This will not take more then 10seconds, It will need to process about 10,000 results every minute. I also need the works to be disturbed across machines
[00:19] <uncategorized> if you are on intrepid, can you add the jaunty sources and then do apt-get update
[00:19] <uncategorized> and then simulate an install of libgpod4
[00:19] <Wildburn> crdlb:thought perhaps fix broken packages might reinstall glib from cd
[00:19] <uncategorized> and tell me what packages it is trying to update?
[00:19] <sebsebseb> DarkKnight: I beat him to it, but I didn't really explain hummm
[00:19] <ellanceo> Could I load a live CD and try and do some work on it there?
[00:19] <sebsebseb> yes
[00:19] <ellanceo> I'd really want to avoid a full reinstall.
[00:19] <Wildburn> ellanceo:sure just mount the drive afterwords
[00:19] <sebsebseb> you can access your  installed Ubuntu partition from Live CD
[00:19] <Tonglebeak> hi everyone. i have a question. I have 8gb of ram, but for now I only want to use 3gb (due to a wine bug on 64-bit systems). I read that passing the "mem=3G" arg through the kernel boot line in grub would solve this, but my system is still using the full 8gb. what could be wrong? I'm using kernel /boot/kernel/bzImage root=/dev/sda2 mem=3G video=uvesafb:1680x1050-32,mtrr:3,ywrap splash=silent,fadein,theme:livecd-2007.0 quiet CONSOLE=/dev/tty1
[00:19] <crdlb> uncategorized: what does 'sudo apt-get --reinstall install libgtk2.0-0' say?
[00:20] <ellanceo> I've done it at LEAST 10 times since Dapper, and it's getting really unnerving.
[00:20] <vbabiy> sorry wrong room
[00:20] <Dr_willis> mezy_,  pendrivelinux.com may have the info/tweaks.. or that ubuntu usb-drive tool can do that.
[00:20] <uncategorized> crdlb: Reinstallation of libgtk2.0-0 is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
[00:20] <Wildburn> uncategorized: do you have your install media?
[00:20] <crdlb> uncategorized: how about without the --reinstall?
[00:20] <art_> hello i had a question... my computer has been doing this almost daily the screen randomly turns black and the only way to get it back is to restart the computer anyone got any idea how i can fix that
[00:21] <sebsebseb> art_:  yes I think so
[00:21] <uncategorized> crdlb: claims it is already the newest version...but i don't know if that means it is a "version newer than what interpid expects"
[00:21] <Wildburn> art:disable screensaver and fade to black
[00:21] <sebsebseb> art_:  have you got  screensavers on?
[00:21] <uncategorized> Wildburn: no i am going from feisty
[00:21] <sebsebseb> if so what wild burn said
[00:21] <arbitrary> Gartral1: You can save as a postscript in Gimp, this is pretty close to an SVG. But as mentioned earlier, since gimp is a raster editor, the resulting image will not really be a true vector image.
[00:21] <sebsebseb> or  put random screensaver
[00:21] <uncategorized> Wildburn: errr...i originally installed from edgy
[00:21] <crdlb> uncategorized: sudo apt-get intall libgtk2.0-0=2.14.4-0ubuntu1
[00:21] <art_> i dont think so i can check tho.. where do i check
[00:21] <uncategorized> and have done upgrades since thatn
[00:21] <Wildburn> uncategorized: does your sources list contain the backports link?
[00:22] <uncategorized> crdlb: that seems to work
[00:22] <arbitrary> Gartral1: Inkscape can take a raster image and convert it to a true vector image by tracing...
[00:22] <ellanceo> Alright, I guess a live cd repair is in order, I've had to do it before, I just figured i wouildn't have to go there. THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP IRC TEAM! You guys helped me more than the forums EVER would! Mucho props!
[00:22] <uncategorized> crdlb: 1 is going to be downgraded!
[00:22] <sebsebseb> uncategorized: yeah for slightly later stuff have backports enabled
[00:22] <Wildburn> good luck ellanceo
[00:22] <kcowolf> My friend's Windows install got corrupted somehow (constant bluescreen on bootup).  He has two hard drives in a RAID configuration; any chance he'd be able to read the drives from the Ubuntu LiveCD?
[00:22] <sebsebseb> ellanceo: wait
[00:22] <EC2-Adam> anyone know if i can have more than one ip address associated with one EC2 instance
[00:22] <ellanceo> Yeah?
[00:22] <ellanceo> I
[00:22] <sebsebseb> ellanceo: it kind of makes sense to do  a reinstall when it's next version, because then you can have Ext4 instead of Ext3
[00:23] <ellanceo> I've waited for responses for weeks on the forums, it's pathetic the false idea of community on there
[00:23] <ellanceo> Next version?
[00:23] <ellanceo> Ext4?
[00:23] <sebsebseb> yes
[00:23] <sebsebseb> Ext4 as an option Ext3 by default
[00:23] <ellanceo> Well yeah, but I didn't even know there was Ext4
[00:23] <ellanceo> Faster I would assume?
[00:23] <sebsebseb> yeah it's a lot faster than Ext3
[00:23] <Mike94287> I just installed Ubuntu on my other computer and now the sound doesn't work on it, how can I fix it?
[00:24] <sebsebseb> I haven't tried yet    not sure if I am clean instalilng this computer for it or not
[00:24] <sebsebseb> anytime soon
[00:24] <ellanceo> Sweet, ext3 was really irritating me with how slow it is.
[00:24] <uncategorized> crdlb: neat...downgrading libgtk2.0-0 from 2.15.4-0ubuntu4 to 2.14.4-0ubuntu1.
[00:24] <art_> ok i turned the the screen saver off... what should i do if it happends again tho
[00:24] <sebsebseb> ellanceo: ,but I can try on someone elses' computer anyway so :D  ,but only try through remote connect
[00:24] <uncategorized> ok...about to restart and give this a try
[00:24] <ellanceo> I got tired of waiting 4 hours to transfer 50GB to my reiserfs external
[00:24] <crdlb> uncategorized: you don't need to restart
[00:24] <uncategorized> crdlb: just restart gdm?
[00:25] <art_> ?
[00:25] <sebsebseb> ellanceo: using a Live CD untill  next release  maybe a bit sucky, but   once the stuff is in RAM  things will be ok
[00:25] <crdlb> uncategorized: sure
[00:25] <ellanceo> So is ext4 going to be an included option with 9.04/9.10?
[00:25] <sebsebseb> ellanceo: or  put Ibex on temporily a clean install. and  then do another clean install of next one or  something
[00:25] <ellanceo> Or is it some really long drawn out process that sucks terribly, like most things with linux that are better
[00:26] <sebsebseb> ellanceo: yes it's an option with next Ubuntu
[00:26] <sebsebseb> later Gparted that has suppourt for it
[00:26] <sebsebseb> ellanceo: there was a speed comparision test and  that, that I saw
[00:26] <sebsebseb> ellanceo: Ext4 really did kick Ext3's arse
[00:26] <ellanceo> Good!
[00:27] <art_> also this happends sometime... the volume in firefox doesnt work on occasion... well actually it doesnt work for some websites and it works for others... i didnt really see a patern
[00:27] <XFCEntral> #xubuntu
[00:27] <ellanceo> I formatted my external to reiserfs because it was faster than ext3 but windows has absolutely NO support for it.
[00:27] <ellanceo> Really a pain
[00:27] <sebsebseb> ellanceo: http://gmrpgsql.tumblr.com/post/73798984/initial-ext3-vs-ext4-results
[00:27] <sebsebseb> I woudn't use  reisterfs  since that guy murdered his wife
[00:27] <sebsebseb> murderfs
[00:27] <Wildburn> lol
[00:27] <ellanceo> WHAAA?!
[00:27] <crdlb> let's not go there
[00:28] <Zykotic> lol, murderfs - that's funny
[00:28] <sebsebseb> however the file system itself  according  to someone I have contact with from IRC,    apparantly that file system is  better
[00:28] <sebsebseb> Zykotic: yeah, but not my joke,  I got it off some  linuxtoday.com comment or something  for some article about it
[00:28] <ellanceo> I haven't had problems with it other than with Windows
[00:28] <art_> also this happends sometime... the volume in firefox doesnt work on occasion... well actually it doesnt work for some websites and it works for others... i didnt really see a patern
[00:29] <uncategorized> crdlb: that worked perfectly!
[00:29] <ellanceo> They tested EXT4 on a 128GB RAM system? What the hell is that super-power nonsense?
[00:29] <sebsebseb> then something about if   reisterfs  source code is on a reiserfs  partition, that things can really bugger up
[00:29] <ellanceo> Is that theoritical RAM or what
[00:29] <Wildburn> yeah, cuz we all have one of those
[00:29] <Wildburn> art: try updating your sound card drivers?
[00:29] <sebsebseb> and most distros use Ext3 by default, and there must be a valid reason for that
[00:30] <art_> how do i do that
[00:30] <Zykotic> art_, if volume works for some sites and not others in Firefox it has to be site specific and not too much can be done if you don't know what sites are affected
[00:30] <uncategorized> crdlb: now it wants to upgrade to 2.14.4-0ubuntu2 Ubuntu:8.10/intrepid-proposed....that should be okay i presume
[00:30] <crdlb> uncategorized: that's fine
[00:30] <crdlb> uncategorized: intrepid-proposed contains updates meant for an intrepid system
[00:30] <ellanceo> Ooooohhh. it's a raid, my bad
[00:30] <art_> oh damn
[00:30] <ellanceo> Thought this was a desktop benchmark
[00:30] <uncategorized> crdlb: for information purposes, why was it that i couldn't use do:  aptitude reinstall libgtk2.0-0?
[00:31] <crdlb> uncategorized: because it was trying to reinstall the package that was installed (2.15.4 from jaunty)
[00:31] <crdlb> it was being very literal
[00:31] <Thirtysixway> Is there any form of Ubuntu that will work on an old toshiba laptop with a pentium processor?
[00:31] <uncategorized> crdlb: i see...yeah i interpreted that command to mean:  reinstall from the current sources.list
[00:31] <Wildburn> unliteral linux, that would be a nightmare
[00:31] <crdlb> uncategorized: if it had been something less important than gtk, you could have just uninstalled it and installed it again
[00:31] <ellanceo> Anyways, thanks again for all the help, I'm gonna poke around and try and get this damn fscking problem to stop :) Take care all!
[00:31] <Wildburn> Thirtysix:how old
[00:31] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: ok how much RAM does it have for a start?
[00:32] <buzzomatic> Hey
[00:32] <OzFalcon> anyone using moblock?
[00:32] <sebsebseb> hi
[00:32] <Thirtysixway> I'm not sure, I'm guessing not a lot.  It could barely start up windows 98
[00:32] <Dr_willis> ANyone noticed how in the gnome file manager to remove that 'these files are on a Picture cd - Open with Whatever" type  comment/notification at the top of the file listing? its WRONG for one thing.. and its just useless info for another.
[00:32] <DarkKnight> how can i move my files from my ubuntu desktop to my XP in vbox
[00:32] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: I'm not sure, I'm guessing not a lot.  It could barely start up windows 98
[00:32] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: ok  this is important
[00:32] <jeeves> is there a program that anyone can reccomend to scan the ID3 tags of MP3s for duplicates?
[00:32] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway:   I know a trick to get later versions of Ubuntu  to work with  128MB RAM
[00:33] <Dr_willis> DarkKnight,  the 2 machines could use samba/shares to transfer files.. same as with 2 real machines.. or virtualbox guest addations allow the mounting of a 'shared  location directory' from the  host OS/
[00:33] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: and without that trick,  the Live CD won't even boot up on that
[00:33] <kcowolf> Anyone know if the LiveCD can read NTFS drives in a RAID configuration?
[00:33] <Wildburn> Seb:he might be better off with tinyme or something along those lines
[00:33] <nellmathew> hey guys is there anything like "orbit downloader" for ubuntu?.. specifically the grab++ stuff (puts a download link under ANY flv video), or a similar way to do this (without using a network analyzer/packet sniffer)
[00:33] <sebsebseb> Wildburn: tinyme?
[00:33] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: yeah I tried livecd of 6.06 and it wouldn't load
[00:33] <Wildburn> http://tinyme.mypclinuxos.com/
[00:33] <buzzomatic> I'm using Xephyr to login to a remote machine, after I login I can no longer use the keyboard because none of the keys generate the correct output, for example when I press 'g' I get '4'///
[00:33] <Wildburn> apparently itll run on a toaster
[00:33] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: which one is that? dapper?  fesity?
[00:33] <DVA59121> Ok i think ive waited long enough, 3 hours//    Here it is again
[00:33] <_VIM_> jeeves: maybe Winamp + Wine
[00:34] <DVA59121> I guess im going to have to type a long report to get any feed back. I have reltek sound card on my pc, built into the mb. I have all the volume controls up but my speakers are only producing a faint sound when they are all up. This has never happened before, and has only happened since after i put in an obsolinte USB sound device, which has hence been rem.oved. I can plug head phones into the front ports and get audio just fine but when tr
[00:34] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: dapper I believe
[00:34] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: ok if you put a 512MB or so swap partition on the hard disk with the Gparted Live CD.   and then try a later version of Ubuntu,  and assuming the computer has 128MB RAM.  the Live CD should boot up properly.    I am not sure if this trick works with computers that have less than 128MB RAM
[00:34] <jeeves> _VIM_, I have Winamp running, but I need a way of sorting through 16,000+ MP3s, and deleting the duplicates
[00:34] <_VIM_> winamp can do that
[00:34] <buzzomatic> Can anyone tell me wtf is going on?
[00:34] <jeeves> _VIM_, how?
[00:34] <Wildburn> Thirtysix are you in windows on that system right now?>
[00:35] <OzFalcon> DVA59121, Checked all the audio volumems by double click volume icon???
[00:35] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: if your in Windows,  it can tell us how much RAM you got easilley
[00:35] <kenny__> is there anyway to fix troubles arising from Gfx card: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS aside from replacing it?
[00:35] <jeeves> buzzomatic, the government is watching you.  speak in hushed tones and face away from me when talking
[00:35] <Wildburn> seb: yeah thats where I was going with it
[00:35] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: okay I can try it.  I may need to go with Xubuntu or something.  But first I'll have to get RAM specs.  The laptops are donated and at a shelter, they're not tech savvy enough to tell me how much ram is on it
[00:35] <_VIM_> jeeves: I'd have to check, give me a few mins
[00:35] <buzzomatic> hoho
[00:35] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: no if you got 128MB RAM,  Ubuntu will work
[00:35] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: I don't have one with me right now so I can't check
[00:35] <arbitrary> kenny__: depends on the problem :) that is an onboard card...
[00:35] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: later versions, with the trick I just told you about
[00:36] <buzzomatic> I mean with my keyboard input getting garbled
[00:36] <jeeves> _VIM_, thanks.  all I know is that there are a few in there, and I don't feel like hacking through them one by one
[00:36] <Wildburn> seb:yeah but xubuntu would run faster with that low of ram
[00:36] <UncleD> Does the ubuntu php package come with PHP compiled with GD2 support
[00:36] <sebsebseb> Wildburn: maybe  depends on computer I guess
[00:36] <Wildburn> seb: my concern is if its win 98 your probably lucky if it has 32 megs of ram
[00:36] <kenny__> arbitrary: taht's what i figured, basically i'm playing wow, or trying, and i got it up and running, just an extremely low framerate.  worked fine with Vista or XP
[00:36] <art_> DVA59121, https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2008-November/166057.html
[00:36] <jeeves> buzzomatic, well, that depends.  are you using the right keyboard set?
[00:36] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: yeah it's a very old machine, pentium processor
[00:36] <sebsebseb> Wildburn: well Puppy Linux and such  for old hardware
[00:36] <sebsebseb> as well as new hardware
[00:37] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: I could try puppy linux on it, but I have no experience with it
[00:37] <nellmathew> hey guys is there anything that puts download links under flv videos? or allows me to download using just the url? (ANY site).. or a SIMPLE/fast network analyzer (not wireshark)..
[00:37] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: DSL  Damn Small Linux as well, that will run on  like anything
[00:37] <buzzomatic> jeeves: where do I change that? I'm just using a generic US layout keyboard
[00:37] <filthpig> hi all. I installed an Ubuntu derivative called easypeasy, which is built upon Intrepid, on a netbook (Acer Aspire One 110) and while in the live environment the wlan card worked, but after install it just didn't. I don't know if this is an issue with Ubuntu 8.10, can somebody confirm if it is?
[00:38] <jeeves> buzzomatic, sorry man, I've never had it.  if you have the GUI installed, check "system --> Pref --> keyboard"
[00:38] <sebsebseb> filthpig: ok your using easypeasy right now?
[00:38] <buzzomatic> jeeves: yep, that is correct
[00:38] <Wildburn> filthpig: your probably going to need to install the firmware and go ndiswrapper with the windows drivers
[00:38] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: as long as it doesn't say Damn on it I could use it.  It's a shelter place for abused women so it's probably not going to like seeing the word "damn" on anything
[00:39] <Dr_willis> filthpig,  wirless on my AAO worked great with Ubuntu.
[00:39] <jeeves> buzzomatic, then check to see if you have the right keyboard in there
[00:39] <unop> nellmathew, does the VideoDownloader firefox plugin not do?  https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2390
[00:39] <degrit> but know that damn small linux is teh uglie D:
[00:39] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: lol
[00:39] <Zykotic> nellmathew, FYI flash videos are samed in /tmp/FlashXXXXX you could copy them from there, or check for a Browser plugin, they exist
[00:39] <nellmathew> unop, haven't tried it - i'll give it a go
[00:39] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: they will be using it as well?
[00:39] <Thirtysixway> I've tried DSL but for some reason I found it difficult to use. maybe I'm used to gnome
[00:39] <buzzomatic> jeeves: that's what I meant, it is correct :) It's odd because when I'm at the login prompt everything is fine, but as soon as gnome starts...
[00:39] <filthpig> sebsebseb: no not right now. I'm on my normal laptop now.
[00:40] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: well women find the name  Puppy Linux cute it seems LOL
[00:40] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: yes, the goal is to get the laptops running and then give it out to the families (women) to use even for just wordprocessing
[00:40] <jeeves> buzzomatic, check the /etc/x11/x11.conf file.  see if it's listing another keyboard set
[00:40] <buzzomatic> ok
[00:40] <Thirtysixway> puppy might work
[00:40] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: ok nice idea
[00:40] <filthpig> Can someone with experience with the AAO/Ubuntu/easypeasy pm me? I'd like to fix this problem :/
[00:40] <_VIM_> jeeves: This might work, it's supposed to remove duplicates and id3 stuff, but I'd backup up those mp3s before running it http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1045181.html
[00:40] <sebsebseb> filthpig: PM me and I can probably help
[00:41] <Zykotic> filthpig, isn't EasyPeasy intended to be run on the EEEs???
[00:41] <nellmathew> Zykotic, thanks for the info, i'll just get it from there then if videodownloader doesn't do the job..
[00:41] <Wildburn> filthpig can you go to terminal and run sudo lspci | grep network
[00:41] <jerknextdoor> i have a program that i can only execute with 'sudo ./' any idea why my user cannot use it?
[00:41] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: so all of the lap tops are old or?
[00:41] <unop> jerknextdoor, what are the permissions on the file?   ls -ld ./filename
[00:41] <arbitrary> jerknextdoor, what are the permissions for the file/script?
[00:42] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: yeah they're pretty ancient. I'm not sure if they have ethernet even...
[00:42] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: loads of OS's you can try
[00:42] <buzzomatic> jeeves: it says: model = pc105, layout = us both are correct
[00:42] <jeeves> _VIM_, thanks.  my problem is that my one sever gets used as a "dump" for all of the computers that come accross our bench here @ work, so the MP3 collection is growing.  I just would like to find a way of tagging, sorting, etc all of the MP3s.  Winamp does a wonderful job of tagging, just not worthing (oe. by artis, then sub directories of album, etc), and I need to make sure the new files that are merged arn't dupes
[00:42] <Wildburn> *shudder* dial up
[00:42] <filthpig> Zykotic: it's meant to run on all netbooks
[00:42] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: not just Linux, but I mean like PC BSD I wonder if that will run
[00:42] <jerknextdoor> unop: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3947 2009-02-27 06:01 ./celtx
[00:42] <jeeves> buzzomatic, then I'm outta ideas.  if it runs fine in CLI, then try removing and reinstalling Gnome
[00:43] <buzzomatic> hum
[00:43] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: hm maybe. I'll add that to my list of systems to look into
[00:43] <buzzomatic> well, thanks
[00:43] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: I haven't tried PC BSD yet, but  there are good reviews
[00:43] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: and I have more obsecure OS's like  nextraOS that I want to try, but haven't yet.  that uses the opensolaris kernel.  and is meant to be pretty user friendly as well
[00:43] <unop> jerknextdoor, hmm, that seems fine .. so what really happens when a user issues ./celtx ?
[00:44] <arbitrary> Anyone know of a half-decent replacement for OneNote? Needs .pdf annotation, and would like to be able to copy/paste text and images into a document...
[00:44] <ActionParsnip1> !info pdfedit
[00:44] <_VIM_> Basket, not sure bout the .pdf part
[00:44] <jerknextdoor> unop:  absolutely nothing.  just returns a prompt.
[00:45] <lenios_> hi everyone :D
[00:45] <arbitrary> basket is a nice program, can't annotate .pdfs. I'll check out .pdfedit.
[00:45] <cprmpt> can i import user accounts/settings from XP after the install?
[00:45] <jerknextdoor> unop: a friend of mine has no problem on his comp with the exact same distro and the exact same program.
[00:45] <cprmpt> if I forgot to during
[00:45] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: alright. thainks
[00:46] <unop> jerknextdoor, maybe this script/program is designed to do nothing if the user is not root?  what type of script is it?  file -x ./celtx
[00:46] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: I wonder about stuff like Mandriva and PCLinuxOS if they will run
[00:46] <ActionParsnip1> arbitrary: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=93742
[00:46] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: maybe
[00:46] <unop> jerknextdoor, sorry, make that. file -s ./celtx
[00:46] <ActionParsnip1> !info tomboy
[00:46] <unop> !info zim
[00:46] <Wildburn> seb:TinyMe is a version of PClinuxOS supposed to be fairly user friendly
[00:46] <ActionParsnip1> sebsebseb: its good to try multiple distros
[00:47] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: I guess you got to get hold of one of those lap tops, and go distro trying.  also do you know how to partiton properly?   1GB swap or 512MB   seperate home partition that is most of the hard disk.  about 10 to 20GB for /
[00:47] <jerknextdoor> unop:  ./celtx: POSIX shell script text executable
[00:47] <arbitrary> yeah, desktop wikis don't do it for me in this case - I have a tablet PC and want to be able to draw stuff on the document as well :)
[00:47] <arbitrary> Xournal is good, but i cant insert images...
[00:47] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: I have a gparted cd, never done it with console
[00:47] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: yeah Gparted
[00:47] <unop> jerknextdoor, hmm ok, strange .. if you can, put the contents of the script up on a pastebin and I can have a look at it for you.
[00:48] <jerknextdoor> unop:  thanks man.  give me a second.
[00:48] <_VIM_> besides BasKet, nothing else comes close to the look and feel of OneNote
[00:48] <Thirtysixway> wow lots of people leaving o.o
[00:48] <unop> jerknextdoor, i'll be back in a min.
[00:48] <sebsebseb> Thirtysixway: heh  I don't think I done with commands yet either no  need with Ubuntu,  just use Gparted and do a manual install
[00:48] <cprmpt> no importing documents and settings after the install eh?
[00:48] <arbitrary> _VIM_, yeah, thats what I thought. Oh well.
[00:48] <Wildburn> Thirtysixway:irc split
[00:49] <_VIM_> whats with all the "connection timed out" partings?
[00:49] <Thirtysixway> sebsebseb: oh. never been thru one haha. do they reconnect?
[00:49] <armence> So, I have the following problem: I am running Ubuntu 8.1 from the Live CD on my Satellite M40 to decide whether I want to install it on my system or not. I am having the following problem: One of my external USB FAT hard drives is not being recognized by ubuntu. When I fdisk, it does not appear at all.

[00:49] <ActionParsnip1> Thirtysixway: just ride the wave
[00:49] <Wildburn> IRC Split, they all just jumped to another server, then their connection here times out, then itll rejoin everyone in a bit
[00:49] <DarkKnight> sebsebseb; hey can you tell me how to access my files of host OS in guest OS
[00:49] <Shizuo> Ubuntu is the most racist distrib of all
[00:49] <sebsebseb> DarkKnight: uhmmmmmm Wubi?
[00:50] <ActionParsnip1> Shizuo: how so?
[00:50] <jerknextdoor> unop: http://pastebin.com/m20fb439d
[00:50] <sebsebseb> Shizuo: lol
[00:50] <DarkKnight> sebsebseb; Wubi??
[00:50] <sebsebseb> DarkKnight: or virtual machine?
[00:50] <Shizuo> ActionParsnip1: It abuses the african heritage for some kind of cheap marketing emotional effect
[00:50] <ActionParsnip1> Shizuo: its just a word that means togetherness, thats not racist at all
[00:51] <DarkKnight> sebsebseb; anything..
[00:51] <_VIM_> oh lawd Shizuo, put down the pipe dude
[00:51] <sebsebseb> DarkKnight: how did you install Ubuntu?
[00:51] <DarkKnight> sebsebseb; i ahve XP in vbox...somehow i need to access my ubuntu files
[00:51] <DarkKnight> sebsebseb; ubuntu is my host
[00:51] <Zykotic> DarkKnight, two options really: 1) setup Samba 2) use a USB drive
[00:51] <ActionParsnip1> Shizuo: Nike is the greek godess of victory, is that racist against greeks too?
[00:51] <hackel> How can I find the most recently modified file in a directory (recursively)?
[00:51] <Shizuo> ActionParsnip1: It's different
[00:51] <DarkKnight> sebsebseb; i am not able to access usb in XP
[00:52] <sebsebseb> DarkKnight: ok you got the open source editon from the repo?
[00:52] <Shizuo> ActionParsnip1: Because Ubuntu games on the public perception of blacks being in a bad position
[00:52] <DarkKnight> sebsebseb; yep
[00:52] <LjL> hackel: uhm, you can get "find" to print modification dates, then pipe "sort -n" to that
[00:52] <unop> jerknextdoor, ok, can you put the output of this up on a pastebin too?   sh -x ./celtx
[00:52] <Zykotic> DarkKnight, do you have USB turned on in the VirtualBox preferences for WinXP (it's not on by default)
[00:52] <Shizuo> ActionParsnip1: They would never choose a roman word, or a russian word
[00:52] <ActionParsnip1> Shizuo: how does it if the word used is "together" which is a positive word.
[00:52] <DarkKnight> zykotic; how do i do this?
[00:53] <Shizuo> ActionParsnip1: They needed something "cutsy" such as a word borrowed from primitive tribes
[00:53] <sebsebseb> DarkKnight: ok that right there is your problem, you need the other one from their site
[00:53] <Wildburn> yeah cuz Fedora is english
[00:53] <DeleTe2> hiya. I'm kinda noobish with ubuntu. How do I change a "regular" fileformat to a .cc?
[00:53] <DarkKnight> sebsebseb; ohhh the PUES edition
[00:53] <jerknextdoor> unop: http://pastebin.com/m51a47692
[00:53] <ActionParsnip1> Shizuo: it just fit what they wanted to say, like when people look at the meaning of children names
[00:53] <sebsebseb> DarkKnight: OSE lacks suppourt for USB and that so go to http://www.virtualbox.org
[00:53] <Shizuo> ActionParsnip1: They wanted something weak and cute
[00:54] <DarkKnight> Zykotic; how do i do this?
[00:54] <Shizuo> ActionParsnip1: A word connected to a minority
[00:54] <sebsebseb> DarkKnight: and the virtualbox manual that you can get from that site, is very good
[00:54] <LjL> hackel: find ./ -printf '%A@ %p\n' | sort -n | tail
[00:54] <Shizuo> ActionParsnip1: To make their distrib look like a social project
[00:54] <Zykotic> DarkKnight, shutdown the VM, open VirtualBox, highlight your XP VM then click Settings, USB is on the left side - put a check in "enable USB Controller"
[00:54] <ActionParsnip1> Shizuo: why would they want to name a product after something weak?
[00:54] <Shizuo> ActionParsnip1: It's emotional blackmail
[00:54] <sebsebseb> Shizuo: no he has the OSE, so won't have that
[00:54] <DarkKnight> sebsebseb; i am using it...but finding difficulty in making out...
[00:54] <ActionParsnip1> Shizuo: emotional blackmail to force people to use linux?
[00:54] <Shizuo> ActionParsnip1: Yes
[00:54] <Wildburn> lol thats what I was going to say Actionparsnip
[00:55] <Wildburn> Shizuo: are you of African decent?
[00:55] <ActionParsnip1> Shizuo: i can tell you've not used linux long. linux is a choice
[00:55] <Shizuo> ActionParsnip1: Like cutsy-fluffy black-people-loving cutsy OS
[00:55] <ActionParsnip1> Shizuo: there are many distributions
[00:55] <hackel> LjL, thanks, just what I wanted.  Didn't realize the power of find's -printf.
[00:55] <armence> OK, so, I now have evidence that that problem can only be fixed by changing some files that the OS uses which obviously cannot be done on the Live CD... On to my next problem...
[00:55] <unop> jerknextdoor, right. it might be that some files are missing?  what does this give you?  ls -ld ./run-mozilla.sh ./celtx-bin
[00:55] <arbitrary> dudes. don't feed the troll.
[00:55] <Wildburn> Shizuo:Ive used ubuntu for years, didnt even think to look up the meaning till you just said something
[00:55] <Shizuo> Wildburn: Ok
[00:56] <ActionParsnip1> Shizuo: take it up with canonical. I think yuo are misinterpretting the word 'racist'. Just like the people who want to not celebrate christmas so loudly as to not offend non-christians
[00:56] <DarkKnight> sebsebseb; the manual has specified running a command...
[00:56] <LjL> !offtopic
[00:56] <GladiatusHelper> #ubuntu-ru это канал для поддержки пользователей Ubuntu. Пожалуйста пройдите на #ubuntu-ru-offtopic для разговоров на другие темы. Спасибо.
[00:56] <LjL> please stay on topic
[00:56] <unop> ActionParsnip1, Wildburn, Shizuo is a known troll - just let him be
[00:56] <armence> I am going to install Ubuntu within the next 24 hours. As of yet, in order to run from the Live CD without freezing completly, I need to use the acpi=off option...
[00:56] <ActionParsnip1> unop: well i closed politely :)
[00:56] <Shizuo> Oh, the Beatles, Let It Be
[00:56] <jerknextdoor> unop: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 10366184 2009-02-27 06:01 ./celtx-bin
[00:56] <Wildburn> unop: sorry just killing time while intrepid reinstalls
[00:56] <jerknextdoor> unop: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root    11410 2009-02-27 06:01 ./run-mozilla.sh
[00:57] <sebsebseb> DarkKnight: ok  I am not really Virtualbox suppourt :D   and  the manual covers most stuff,  and you can go to virtualbox suppourt #vbox
[00:57] <armence> I am going to install Ubuntu within the next 24 hours. As of yet, in order to run from the Live CD without freezing completly, I need to use the acpi=off option... Will I be able to do so easily if I install ubuntu on my system?
[00:57] <sebsebseb> yes I expect so
[00:57] <DarkKnight> Zykotic; there's no usb in that option
[00:57] <Wildburn> armence: is it a laptop?
[00:57] <armence> Wildburn: Yes
[00:57] <Titan8990> armence, typically if you install via acpi=off, it will automatically add acpi=off to your new install
[00:57] <ActionParsnip1> Shizuo: if you have an issue with the name of ubuntu, we cannot change that and you should take it up with canonical directly. I'm sure they will inform yiou the same. This is also the ubuntu support channel for the OS itself, not qualms about its name
[00:58] <Shizuo> Stop spamming, please
[00:58] <unop> jerknextdoor, that's nice - they're both there.  ok, let's see how this runs.   sh -x ./run-mozilla.sh ./celtx-bin
[00:58] <Zykotic> DarkKnight, you installed the Open Source Edition?  cause i don't think it's in that version.
[00:58] <Titan8990> armence, if it does not, you need to edit it in /boot/grub/menu.lst in order for it to be permanent
[00:58] <armence> Thanks Titan8990
[00:58] <sebsebseb> DarkKnight: no USB since your on OSE as I said you want PUEL
[00:58]  * ActionParsnip1 strikes one more bogey
[00:58] <DarkKnight> okkk
[00:58] <armence> Wildburn: Is that a frequent problem with laptops?
[00:58] <djbjrca> g'day all, ima throw a question out and see what happens: i have 8.10 running on a Gateway MD 2614u, and it runs awesomely (as ubuntu always had on any computer i've tried it n) but the computer has these touch-sensitive media controls built-in tha Vista (><) could use but I cant find the device/diver to use them with Ubuntu...anyne have any thoughts?
[00:58] <DarkKnight> sebsebseb; now how do i setup samba
[00:59] <Wildburn> armence: no and in fact its a bit worrying that you would have to enable that
[00:59] <sebsebseb> !samba
[00:59] <GladiatusHelper> Инфо по Samba тут: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently и http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html
[00:59] <armence> Wildburn: Oh...
[00:59] <Titan8990> armence, no, but acpi is more important to laptops
[00:59] <Wildburn> armence: since a laptop is where you really want acpi to manage battery life

[00:59] <enduser0001> hey can anyone help me with a graphics problem?
[00:59] <Titan8990> why do we have bots for two languages? Can an op please remove the non-english bot?
[00:59] <ActionParsnip1> djbjrca: if they generate events in xev you can assign that code to a command or whatever
[00:59] <armence> Wildburn: Well, I'll have to find a fix I guess...
[00:59] <LjL> Titan8990: uh, sure. somehow i didn't notice
[00:59] <LjL> !test
[00:59] <GladiatusHelper> failed!
[01:00] <djbjrca> ActionParsnip1: ooh, good call...probably should have tried that.  They seem to.  Thanks!
[01:00] <Titan8990> LjL, Thank you
[01:01] <unop> jerknextdoor, sounds like the culprit is ./celtx-bin.  what does this do?   ./celtx-bin
[01:01] <jerknextdoor> unop:  ./celtx-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libjemalloc.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[01:02] <ActionParsnip1> jerknextdoor: apt-file search libjemalloc.so
[01:02] <unop> jerknextdoor, sounds like you are missing the xulrunner-1.9 package.
[01:02] <unop> jerknextdoor, sudo aptitude install xulrunner-1.9
[01:03] <ActionParsnip1> jerknextdoor: libjemalloc.so is provided by the xulrunner package
[01:03] <ActionParsnip1> snap
[01:04] <biouser> anyone know how to get on the bios of EEEPC?
[01:04] <LjL> biouser: F2
[01:04] <unop> get on the bios? ha ha .. that's funny.
[01:05] <biouser> thanks a lot LjL !
[01:05] <ActionParsnip1> biouser: bit offtopic dude
[01:05] <jerknextdoor> unop:  thank you.  i'm working on getting it to see if it fixes the problem
[01:06] <Laurenceb> hello
[01:06] <ActionParsnip1> !hi Lauren
[01:06] <unop> jerknextdoor, if it doesn't fix it. let me know what ./celtx-bin does
[01:06] <biouser> ActionParsnip1 not really, do you have a question?
[01:06] <Laurenceb> I have a ubuntu machine I'm using as a server, I plan to have a site with php and pcharts
[01:07] <jerknextdoor> unop:  looks like i already have the latest version
[01:07] <LjL> biouser: actually yes, it's pretty much offtopic as it's got nothing to do with Ubuntu... i answered it anyway, but that doesn't make it ontopic
[01:07] <Laurenceb> unfortunately php doesnt support pCharts atm
[01:07] <jerknextdoor> unop: of xulrunner
[01:07] <ActionParsnip1> biouser: wel it is because ubuntu has nothing to do with accessing the bios of an eee pc
[01:07] <Laurenceb> so I'm following the instructions here http://www.softwareprojects.com/resources/programming/t-how-to-recompile-php-with-gd-support-on-a-live-serv-1572.html
[01:07] <Laurenceb> and its going very badly :(
[01:07] <Laurenceb> can anyone help me along?
[01:07] <unop> jerknextdoor, ok, try reinstalling the package. sudo aptitude reinstall xulrunner xulrunner-1.9
[01:07] <DIFH-iceroot> Laurenceb: you only need gd-support?
[01:07] <Laurenceb> oh ok
[01:07] <Laurenceb> yeah
[01:08] <Laurenceb> I tried editing the init file
[01:08] <Laurenceb> for php
[01:08] <biouser> ActionParsnip1 for the purpose of booting to ubuntu and getting rid of windows... tangential to topic I will admit... but the topic of how off-topic it is IS MORE OFF TOPIC :P!
[01:08] <DIFH-iceroot> Laurenceb: sudo apt-get install php5-gd
[01:08] <Laurenceb> oh crap
[01:08] <Laurenceb> sorry
[01:08]  * Laurenceb facepalm
[01:08] <Laurenceb> ok thanks for that
[01:08] <DIFH-iceroot> Laurenceb: np
[01:08] <ActionParsnip1> biouser: you could swing anything like that, accessing bioses isnt an ubuntu issue
[01:08] <Laurenceb> I've been at this for like 2 hours :(
[01:08] <filthpig> Dr_willis: you said your AAO wlan worked out of the box with Ubuntu? Was that intrepid?
[01:09] <DIFH-iceroot> Laurenceb: other php-modules you can search with "apt-cache search php"
[01:09] <DIFH-iceroot> Laurenceb: and install with sudo apt-get install paketname
[01:09] <KenBW2> i cant create multiple profiles in CCSM Preferences, any ideas why?
[01:09] <Laurenceb> will I need to restart apache after installing that?
[01:09] <DIFH-iceroot> Laurenceb: yes
[01:09] <Titan8990> biouser, for the future, #linux is quite a bit more understanding of OT discussion and support such as that. This channel is ubuntu support only.
[01:09] <Laurenceb> sure I'm not that big a noob :P
[01:09] <Laurenceb> thanks anyway
[01:10] <DIFH-iceroot> Laurenceb: i didnt called you noob, just wanted to help :)
[01:10] <biouser> Titan8990 ActionParsnip1 LjL can you help me get ubuntu running on my EeePC? :P
[01:10] <DIFH-iceroot> !eeepc | biouser
[01:10] <biouser> I need to access the bios
[01:10] <LjL> biouser: maybe, what sort of help do you think you need?
[01:10] <DIFH-iceroot> biouser: f2 for entering bios
[01:10] <biouser> I think I'm fine, thanks
[01:10] <biouser> just that one question
[01:11] <learner> Can anyone suggest a hardware monitor that displays GPU usage and temperature?
[01:11] <DIFH-iceroot> biouser: on eeepc 701 g4 its f2 at bootscreen for entering bios
[01:11] <Dillizar> how can i give my cd-rom permission for auto run??
[01:11] <me> i can't change the time on my system! i'm using 8.10
[01:11] <biouser> maybe we should take this to #what-constitutes-off-topic-in-#ubuntu
[01:11] <Guest78026> every time i change it it goes right back after a few minutes
[01:11] <biouser> and thanks again\
[01:12] <Titan8990> learner, gnome system monitor for CPU usage and lm-sensors for temperature
[01:12] <koshari> ﻿ learner lm-sensor
[01:12] <ActionParsnip1> !info gputils
[01:12] <LjL> biouser, no one said THIS one was offtopic
[01:12] <jerknextdoor> unop:  reinstalled it and i still get the same error from ./celtx-bin about libjemalloc.so
[01:12] <learner> that's fine for CPU, but doesn't help with graphics processor unit.
[01:12] <Zykotic> learner, gkrellm can use the temp monitors on Nvidia, there is also a screenlet for Nvidia - but if your using some other gfx card i have no idea
[01:12] <Dillizar> learner, or try x sensors but they dont work for me :(
[01:12] <ActionParsnip1> learner: not sure if that fits your needs, give it  a go
[01:12] <koshari> learner mine does
[01:12] <biouser> DIFH-iceroot thanks, nice simple answers without commentary keep my screen uncluttered from off-topic BS
[01:12] <MidasManchu> hey mates, anyone know of ways to speed up the window redraws when you switch workspaces?  I'm running 8.10 with metacity
[01:13] <Titan8990> learner, for GPU the best you can do is the proprietary software provided by the manufacturer of your GPU
[01:13] <Dillizar> how can i give my cd-rom permission for auto run??
[01:13] <learner> Zykotic, that ought to help.
[01:13] <usser> MidasManchu, run compiz, make sure you have graphics drivers installed
[01:13] <ActionParsnip1> biouser: keep ontopic and its avoided altogether
[01:13] <MidasManchu> usser, it screws with my fullscreen applications or I would
[01:13] <Guest48813> oooo
[01:13] <sunexplodes> So, has something changed in the way ubuntu deals with mouse buttons and keyboard shortcuts? I was away using arch for a while, and upon my return to ubuntu, none of my old methods of getting my mouse's thumb button or my keyboard's multimedia keys work at ALL.
[01:14] <ActionParsnip1> !mouse
[01:14] <ActionParsnip1> !keyboard
[01:14] <ActionParsnip1> !shortcuts
[01:14] <unop> jerknextdoor, does this file exist?  ls -l /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9/libjemalloc.so
[01:15] <sunexplodes> Yes, I am aware of the many methods of doing these things. Fact is, while they once worked on my computer, they no longer have any effect. Keytouch doesn't work. I'm not using gnome as my main DE, so the gnome shortcuts don't work. Xbindkeys doesn't work for my mouse anymore.
[01:15] <biouser> has #ubuntu become a fascist wasteland or is meta-discussion of #ubuntu off-topic?
[01:15] <jerknextdoor> unop: no such file
[01:15] <MidasManchu> any other thoughts mates?
[01:15] <_Xenu> How come /proc/config.gz is disabled now for stock kernels?
[01:16] <evantandersen> i need some help with shell scripts
[01:16] <Titan8990> biouser, ubuntu discussion belongs in #ubuntu-chagt

[01:17] <ActionParsnip1> evantandersen: do you want the modprobe stuff in a script?
[01:17] <thinkpadx61> evantandersen: well, i use it for ncmpcpp (a mpd client)
[01:17] <evantandersen> ActionParsnip1 yes
[01:17] <endial> Anyone up for helping a newb to Linux?
[01:17] <evantandersen> endial sure
[01:17] <jerknextdoor> unop: nope.
[01:17] <sunexplodes> What's the problem, Endial?
[01:17] <Titan8990> !ask | endial
[01:18] <unop> jerknextdoor, something's not right.  are you on intrepid?
[01:18] <Titan8990> endial, plenty of people, always willing to help
[01:18] <ActionParsnip1> evantandersen: wel thats easy, copy the 2 lines to an empty file, put: #!/bin/bash as the first line and save
[01:18] <Shizuo> I love ubuntu
[01:18] <ActionParsnip1> evantandersen: then chmod +x the file you made, you now have a script
[01:18] <jerknextdoor> unop:  yes, i am.
[01:18] <endial> Well simply put I jumped off Windows bus and picked up ubuntu 8.1 and loaded it and thats what im using now and i feel pretty lost
[01:19] <jerknextdoor> unop:  all the updates as of a couple hours ago.  never had a problem like this before
[01:19] <evantandersen> ActionParsnip1 that is what i did, except i wrote #!/bin/sh
[01:19] <cmdbbq> there is a text file with extension .sh that contains a list of commands executed when i instruct my laptop to "suspend" where is it located/what is it called?
[01:19] <ActionParsnip1> evantandersen: thats fine too
[01:19] <sebsebseb> endial: ok hi
[01:19] <evantandersen> cmdbbq /etc/pm/sleep.d
[01:19] <ActionParsnip1> evantandersen: did you chmod +x the file?
[01:19] <sebsebseb> endial:  what are you lost with?
[01:19] <evantandersen> ActionParsnip1 yes
[01:19] <cmdbbq> evantandersen: thanks
[01:19] <sunexplodes> Endial: Well, what specifically are you lost about?
[01:19] <sofakng> how can I find out which kernel module my networking card is using?
[01:19] <Titan8990> endial, most of us where there once, what would you like to know?
[01:20] <ActionParsnip1> evantandersen: then as long as you wn the file, you can run it, otherwise you will need chmod a+x
[01:20] <endial> Well this is my first day on linux the first thing I tried to do was load an old game i had laying around called dungeon lords
[01:20] <ActionParsnip1> evantandersen: to run it use: sudo <script name>
[01:20] <Titan8990> sofakng, lshw -vv
[01:20] <endial> @ first I had problems then found something called wine
[01:20] <Shizuo> endial: Yes...?
[01:20] <sofakng> Titan8990: thanks!
[01:20] <endial> used it and game loads but very laggy (Im on a decent system)
[01:21] <endial> So I guess for starters I would just like to get this game up and running smoothly
[01:21] <unop> jerknextdoor,  very strange. lets see if this file was installed somewhere else.   dpkg -L xulrunner xulrunner-1.9 2>/dev/null | grep -i jemalloc
[01:21] <Titan8990> endial, first, off you need to change your mindset a little bit. for the most part if you want to run windows programs, you should use windows
[01:21] <filthpig> endial, check out #winehq and appdb.winehq.org
[01:21] <usser> endial, do you have your graphics drivers installed?
[01:21] <ActionParsnip1> evantandersen: if you copy the script to /usr/bin you can execute it from any pwd
[01:21] <sebsebseb> endial: ok  you can't just run Windows software on Ubuntu
[01:21] <unop> jerknextdoor, also, can you include the output of   ldd ./celtx-bin
[01:21] <DarkKnight> how can i get virtualbox PUES in my repos??
[01:21] <shifty5> endial, make sure you have the restricted graphics driver installed
[01:21] <sebsebseb> endial: ,but it is possible to get a lot of stuff working, also you can run Windows inside Ubuntu
[01:21] <evantandersen> ActionParsnip1 i want it to run when i resume from suspend
[01:21] <Titan8990> endial, some things work in wine, some don't, its hit or miss but luckily there is a databse of compatible programs
[01:21] <evantandersen> endial google wine
[01:21] <Titan8990> !appdb | endial
[01:21] <endial> How can i make sure I have the drivers?
[01:21] <jerknextdoor> unop:  /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.6/libjemalloc.so
[01:21] <Zykotic> DarkKnight, you can't download it directly from Sun
[01:21] <Titan8990> !ati | endial
[01:22] <endial> in windows I know I would use DXdiag but here ...
[01:22] <sebsebseb> endial: system administration hardware drivers
[01:22] <usser> endial, open terminal type glxinfo | grep direct
[01:22] <ActionParsnip1> evantandersen: i dont know about suspend stuff, its a massive pain in the ass
[01:22] <shifty5> there is a manager in gnome
[01:22] <usser> endial, what does it say?
[01:22] <shifty5> called "hardware drivers"
[01:22] <unop> jerknextdoor, ok, that's good
[01:22] <evantandersen> ActionParsnip1 not if u use laptop
[01:22] <Shizuo> ActionParsnip1: You should say butt
[01:22] <DarkKnight> Zykotic; i wanted to add it my repos...so that i can get any updations
[01:22] <ActionParsnip1> evantandersen: i do use a laptop or two, i just shutdown
[01:22] <bpat1434> Anyone know of a guide for sun java6 update 12 on 8.10?
[01:22] <sebsebseb> endial:  pm me if you want some more 1 to 1 help with things
[01:22] <bpat1434> how to install it that is?
[01:22] <jerknextdoor> unop: http://pastebin.com/d8ab8db5
[01:22] <ActionParsnip1> !java | bpat1434
[01:23] <Zykotic> DarkKnight, sorry the directions to adding suns repos are at http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
[01:23] <evantandersen> ActionParsnip1 k so i figured it out. If, when i excute my shell script if i hit "Run" it does not work however if i hit "Run in Terminal" it works
[01:23] <Laurenceb> hi, another problem, I have a php file in /var/www that writes a png thats used in my webpage, but the php doesnt have permission to write
[01:24] <bpat1434> ActionParsnip1, that's not update12.  I can't use update10 becuase there's no x64 plugin, but update 12 has it....
[01:24] <Laurenceb> how do I give it permission?
[01:24] <Titan8990> evantandersen, scripts should always be executed from the terminal
[01:24] <Titan8990> Laurenceb, change the ownership to apache
[01:24] <ActionParsnip1> bpat1434: you can use icedtea as its 64bit
[01:24] <Laurenceb> Titan8990: how?
[01:24] <bpat1434> ActionParsnip1, no I can't.  I need sun java's plugin
[01:24] <sofakng> Titan8990:  lshw -vv doesn't work to display my network module... it just displays a help screen
[01:24] <Titan8990> Laurenceb, depending on the distro (i forget which for ubuntu) it will be either apache:apache or www-data:www-data
[01:24] <DarkKnight> Zykotic; thank you
[01:25] <bsdbandit> anyone running ubuntu on the macbook
[01:25] <bsdbandit> ?
[01:25] <ActionParsnip1> bpat1434: you may be able to run it with nspluginwrapper
[01:25] <evantandersen> Titan8990 i know, but when it is executed when i come out of sleep it does not run it in terminal
[01:25] <Titan8990> sofakng, try without -vv, you would normally get the help screen from improper usage of the command
[01:25] <shifty5> does anyone elses pulseaudio module-x11-xsmp fail to load?
[01:25] <bpat1434> ActionParsnip1, that's a hack, and u12 is out... just wondering if anyone else has put update 12 in use and how they did it.
[01:25] <Gosujii-sama> is anyone here good at iptables?
[01:25] <evantandersen> bsdbandit what revision of macbook r u using?
[01:25] <Dillizar> how can i mount my cd?
[01:25] <Titan8990> evantandersen, everything that runs in the background can be considered to be running in a terminal
[01:26] <evantandersen> Gosujii-sama like the internet kind
[01:26] <usser> Dillizar, sudo mount /dev/cdrom
[01:26] <Gosujii-sama> yah internet iptables
[01:26] <Gosujii-sama> dont post the site
[01:26] <unop> jerknextdoor,  ok.  run this.   for target in /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.6/*.so; do sudo ln -sv "$target" /usr/lib/; done
[01:26] <Gosujii-sama> ive read it
[01:26] <ActionParsnip1> evantandersen: all i can suggest is copy it to /usr/bin and then it will be executable lik firefox or thunderbird or any other app
[01:26] <Gosujii-sama> still cant get it
[01:26] <bsdbandit> 4.1
[01:26] <ActionParsnip1> Gosujii-sama: have you tried using firestarter
[01:26] <Gosujii-sama> yes
[01:26] <sofakng> Titan8990: ok, lshw worked and I see my network device but how do I know which module it's using?
[01:26] <Gosujii-sama> it still seems to be blocking the port/ports in question

[01:30] <Laurenceb> works thanks
[01:30] <jerknextdoor> unop:  it's a screenwriting program that is open source and cross platform.  they just updated to 2.0 yesterday.  they had problems with the linux version for 1.0 too.
[01:31] <Titan8990> Laurenceb, good to hear, just so you know, that command changed the owner and group of all files and directories under the /var/www to the user that is the apache web server
[01:31] <jerknextdoor> unop:  but this time the errors seem specific to me.  no one else has reported them and my friend got it running with no problems.
[01:31] <Laurenceb> yeah I understand
[01:33] <Antioch> How can I get mouse-wheel scrolling to work in Nautilus on Intrepid? I know my mousewheel works - I can use it in many other applications..
[01:33] <Antioch> Thank you for your help
[01:33] <BadHorsie> Hi, i have a question, I'm installing ubuntu on a SATA2 HDD, it all goes fine except when I reboot It says "No bootable disk found, insert disk and hit enter", I load the CD and hit "boot from first disk" and it works...
[01:33] <luddite> Shizuo has deep issues
[01:33] <unop> jerknextdoor, very strange - for some reason it's not finding the shared libraries (which are obviously already installed).  and it seems to depend on these additional packages too.  thunderbird/sunbird and libsqlite3-dev.  so try.   sudo aptitude install thunderbird libsqlite3-dev
[01:33] <luddite> :-(
[01:33] <Titan8990> !grub | BadHorsie
[01:33] <sonny1`2> need help with internet connection sharing not sticking after reboot
[01:34] <Titan8990> BadHorsie, that means the bootloader was not installed correctly, follow the instructions there to manually install grub
[01:34] <BadHorsie> Titan8990: the grub-installer goes fine... It doesn't even loads grub, should I try a grub-installer by hand?
[01:34] <BadHorsie> Titan8990: thanks a lot
[01:34] <Titan8990> BadHorsie, no, I didn't think you meant that was a grub error, sorry
[01:34] <bpat1434> Anyone have a guide outlining how to install sun java 6 update 12 on 8.10 ?  I've got the bin, just wondering if there's anything else to do other than run it.
[01:34] <Titan8990> BadHorsie, grub gives you a disc not found error?
[01:35] <Brando753> hey can you dual boot ubuntu server?
[01:35] <wodKja> Anyone know if IE7 works ok in wine?
[01:35] <Titan8990> Brando753, yes
[01:35] <RoastedTiresX> Is anybody really good with network printing via CUPS with Ubuntu 8.10 (host) to an XP Pro laptop?
[01:35] <Titan8990> Brando753, you can dual boot anything that works with grub (basically everything)
[01:35] <sonny1`2> does anyone have any info on imaking internet connection sharing stick after a restart
[01:36] <Wildburn> Out of curiousity, Synaptic installs patches that it downloads right?
[01:36] <Zykotic> wodKja, IE7 is far too slow in IEs4Linux???  probably the same with straight wine too...
[01:36] <Brando753> now will i risk my bios jamming if i tri-boot (ubuntu, windows, ubunti server?
[01:36] <BadHorsie> Titan8990: grub doesn't even load, it juts says "No bootable device found, enter disk and press enter"
[01:36] <unop> why in the world would you want to run IE on linux?
[01:36] <Wildburn> im with unop on that
[01:36] <wodKja> for my outlook web client :\
[01:36] <Titan8990> BadHorsie, then yes, try the manual installation of grub, not the "grub-install" method
[01:37] <ActionParsnip1> BadHorsie: reinstal grub to the boot sector of the disk your bios is pointing to
[01:37] <Wildburn> be free from M$
[01:37] <Titan8990> unop, important to many web developers
[01:37] <adante> hi guys, am i right in thinking it's straightforward to resize both ext3 and ntfs partitions nowadays? i'm setting up a dual boot system and not giving too much thought to the partition layout, but hoping it will be easy to resize in the future
[01:37] <Wildburn> wodkja, you want to run IE to run outlook express?>
[01:37] <ActionParsnip1> unop: IE is good for site devs to make sure it renders ok
[01:37] <brandon_> how do i get ssh>
[01:37] <brandon_> ?**
[01:37] <unop> wodKja, does OWA not like firefox then? maybe you can fool OWA into thinking firefox is actually IE by changing the user agent string.
[01:37] <Brando753> now will i risk my bios jamming if i tri-boot (ubuntu, windows, ubunti server?)
[01:37] <Wildburn> Action, I am a site dev, but I just run windows on VMware for testing IE
[01:38] <ActionParsnip1> brandon_: in terminal type: ssh <username>@<server name or ip>
[01:38] <Titan8990> Brando753, grub boots after the BIOS has loaded
[01:38] <RoastedTiresX> Is anybody really good with network printing via CUPS with Ubuntu 8.10 (host) to an XP Pro laptop?
[01:38] <LjL> adante: i do believe gparted can manage both things... of course a backup would always be a good idea before doing such things
[01:38] <Titan8990> Brando753, so no
[01:38] <unop> ActionParsnip1, and you'd trust IE on linux to render it well ? :) I'll tell you it doesn't - atleast not when I am developing sites
[01:38] <wodKja> You can run OWA in firefox but only the light version which has awful functionality :[
[01:38] <Brando753> relly so now jam possiablity :D SWEET
[01:38] <AETE_KRAOUD> wodKja, : yes download tamper data and test the user agent string unitll it works with firefox too :-);)
[01:38] <LjL> Brando753: what does your BIOS have to do with that?
[01:38] <ActionParsnip1> unop: its the only reason i can thin of, i dont think itd be right either
[01:38] <brandon_> can i run IRC in terminal
[01:38] <wodKja> AETE_KRAOUD: thanks :D
[01:38] <Zykotic> RoastedTiresX, i'd recommend you just ask your question...
[01:38] <LjL> brandon_: sure, you can use irssi
[01:38] <AETE_KRAOUD> wodKja,  : tamper data it is a firefox extension :-) no problem :-)
[01:38] <BadHorsie> hum, I tried export TERM to linux,vt100 even xterm, it starts with bterm, whatever I choose when i do execute grub to find /boot/grub/stage1 It's all deleted/formatted/corrupted from grub :S
[01:38] <Brando753> what if you dont have grub?
[01:39] <Titan8990> brandon_, irssi is actually very popular too
[01:39] <LjL> Brando753: well, you have *some* means of dual booting don't you...?
[01:39] <brandon_> well my friend is going to help me with my server and he sayed something about ssh
[01:39] <Titan8990> Brando753, then you can use lilo but I am not sure how it works with dual and tri booting
[01:39] <Wildburn> Actionparsnip: Im with unop on this, better to run dual boot or virtualize for windows if you want to test across browsers
[01:39] <BadHorsie> I know it works with dual booting
[01:39] <RoastedTiresX> It's simple. I'm getting access denied on my printer and I have no clue why. UbuntuForums yield nothing.
[01:39] <BadHorsie> but grub looks so nice *sinff*
[01:40] <Brando753> maby? i have grub on my laptop, but, i want to dual boot my desktop with windows and ubuntu server
[01:40] <Wildburn> Brando, you can use grub to boot windows
[01:40] <AETE_KRAOUD> BadHorsie, : there is nothing yet in the world better than GRUB ;)
[01:40] <Titan8990> Brando753, use grub....
[01:40] <fearful> how can I completely remove OpenOffice 3.0, my update won't show up even when adding the sources.list for hardy. I installed a bad one and I can't get the correct one to install now any ideas?
[01:40] <ActionParsnip1> brandon_: sure, run irssi
[01:40] <unop> jerknextdoor, I'm going AFK now - let me know how that turns out.
[01:40] <ActionParsnip1> !info irssi
[01:40] <AETE_KRAOUD> Brando753, : may be the Grub be with you ;):-)
[01:40] <Titan8990> Brando753, grub more or less boots everything
[01:41] <brandon_> i heard IRSSI is a crappy ubuntu program
[01:41] <sonny1`2> anyone on this ics issue
[01:41] <jerknextdoor> unop:  thanks for your help.  i've gotta take off for a few also.
[01:41] <Titan8990> !best | brandon_
[01:41] <sonny1`2> ?
[01:41] <jerknextdoor> unop:  i'll be back later i'm sure.  haha
[01:41] <_VIM_> brandon_: that is not true at all
[01:41] <Brando753> my laptop already installed with grub when i installed ubuntu how do i have it do that for ubuntu server on my desktop
[01:41] <Titan8990> brandon_, they were stating an opinion
[01:41] <Brando753> my laptop already installed with grub when i installed ubuntu how do i have it do that for ubuntu server on my desktop
[01:41] <ActionParsnip1> brandon_: its a terminal based irc client, lots of users use it
[01:41] <brandon_> i think i will stick with ChatZilla
[01:41] <brandon_> for now
[01:41] <Titan8990> Brando753, the same way.... do you realize that linux servers don't have GUIs?
[01:41] <RoastedTiresX> Can anybody help me figure out why I cant use CUPS networking printing from 8.10 to XP Pro?
[01:42] <ActionParsnip1> brandon_: use what you feel comfortable with
[01:42] <Titan8990> !grub | Brando753
[01:42] <Dr_Willis> I am using IRSSI right now.
[01:42] <AETE_KRAOUD> GRUB =  Grant unified Boot loader
[01:42] <Dr_Willis> its very well done irc client. :)
[01:42] <Zykotic> RoastedTiresX, are you sharing the printer to Linux or Windows clients?
[01:42] <Titan8990> AETE_KRAOUD, I believe its "grand" :)
[01:42] <LjL> brandon_: you asked for a client to run in a terminal. i don't believe chatzilla can run in a terminal. can it?
[01:42] <_VIM_> brandon_: at the end of the day, you're the one who has to make that decision, not others opinions :)
[01:42] <RoastedTiresX> TO Windows. It's connected locally (USB) to my Ubuntu 8.10 desktop.
[01:42] <unop> jerknextdoor, your last pastebin showed a couple files missing that should be installed once you get thunderbird and sqlite3-dev installed - if that doesn't work, you'll need to link the missing libraries in to /usr/lib/
[01:42] <Titan8990> LjL, no, chatzilla is firefox plugin
[01:42] <AETE_KRAOUD> Titan8990, : whatever it is just the best of the best :-)
[01:42] <ActionParsnip1> RoastedTiresX: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-641010.html
[01:42] <Dr_Willis> terminal based irc clients, irssi, ircII, bitchx, and a few others.
[01:42] <Brando753> i am aware server has no out of box
[01:42] <Zykotic> RoastedTiresX, do you have Samba installed on your linux box?
[01:43] <brandon_> okay whats the irssi's website
[01:43] <Titan8990> Brando753, and should not have one at any time
[01:43] <Brando753> gui srry :P
[01:43] <rww> Brando753: sudo apt-get install irssi
[01:43] <RoastedTiresX> zykotic - I do have samba installed,  however I was trying to avoid using Samba cause several people suggested CUPS over Samba in terms of printing.
[01:43] <LjL> !irssi | brandon
[01:43] <Dr_Willis> irssi.org perhaps? or use google...
[01:43] <_VIM_> Brando753: irssi is in the repos
[01:43] <ActionParsnip1> RoastedTiresX: then use samba to share it
[01:43] <usser> Dr_Willis, bitchx is no longer in the repos
[01:43] <RoastedTiresX> actionparsnipl - I don't know how. Every guide I found kind of sucks at explaining it.
[01:43] <AETE_KRAOUD> why not samba instead of CUPS ?????
[01:43] <Brando753> if i install ubuntu server on my desktop will it automatically install grub?
[01:43] <Zykotic> RoastedTiresX, to my knowledge (which could be wrong) you'll need samba to share the printer to Windows clients???
[01:44] <ActionParsnip1> RoastedTiresX: if the printer is installed on ubuntu and you want to access it from the xp system
[01:44] <AETE_KRAOUD> isn't samba good enough ???
[01:44] <SJr|Work> Hmmmmm not getting an answer in #kubuntu, where does X decide to use dual monitors or not in 8.10? xorg.conf no longer seems to be the source.
[01:44] <sonny1`2> ok i have internet connection sharing working through iptables but this does not stick after i reboot all computers loose internet including the one doing the sharing resulting in deleting and reinstalling iptables can anyone help me out with why this wont stick or does this please?
[01:44] <Wildburn> yes Brando
[01:44] <RoastedTiresX> AETE - I use samba faithfully. I was just suggested to try CUPS before Samba, so here I am.
[01:44] <ActionParsnip1> brandon_: yes, the bootloaderr will be intalled
[01:44] <LjL> AETE_KRAOUD: there is no reason to use samba unless you're dealing with Windows clients.
[01:44] <RoastedTiresX> CUPS can't share to Windows??
[01:44] <AETE_KRAOUD> LjL, ; hmmm it sounds reasonable
[01:44] <Titan8990> RoastedTiresX, no, it can't
[01:44] <LjL> AETE_KRAOUD: besides, what do you think Samba uses for actually printing? that's right, CUPS
[01:45] <Titan8990> RoastedTiresX, windows uses SMB/CIFS and only that
[01:45] <RoastedTiresX> Titan - Oh, damnit. I didn't know that. Everyone was using CUPS and speaking about Windows... I would have never guessed.
[01:45] <AETE_KRAOUD> LjL : so CUPS is only for Unix-like e?
[01:45] <ActionParsnip1> RoastedTiresX: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP
[01:45] <LjL> AETE_KRAOUD: yes, at least as far as i know
[01:45] <brandon_> damn
[01:45] <AETE_KRAOUD> LjL: hmmm thanks ;)
[01:45] <brandon_> i need perl
[01:45] <LjL> brandon_: you have perl
[01:45] <Titan8990> AETE_KRAOUD, it stands for "common unix printing system"
[01:46] <brandon_> ?
[01:46] <AETE_KRAOUD> Titan8990, : nice it' s a typoical acronym nice thanks for the info :-)
[01:46] <brandon_> idk i never downloaded perl
[01:46] <ActionParsnip1> Titan8990: read the link ;)
[01:46] <LjL> brandon_: perl is a dependency of a ton of compulsory stuff in ubuntu - so you have it
[01:46] <LjL> brandon_: "downloaded"?
[01:46] <brandon_> yes
[01:47] <LjL> brandon_, do you know how software is installed in ubuntu? i'm starting to doubt that somehow
[01:47] <brandon_> i thought i needed to download it from perl website
[01:47] <brandon_> okay okay
[01:47] <Titan8990> brandon_, you shouldn't have to download anything from a website
[01:47] <LjL> brandon_: how about you just type "sudo apt-get install irssi" in your terminal (or alternatively, go to Synaptic and select irssi)
[01:47] <Titan8990> brandon_, everything should be in the repos
[01:47] <LjL> !software > brandon_    (brandon_, see the private message from ubottu)
[01:47] <ActionParsnip1> brandon_: in ubuntu its rare to need to go to a site to download stuff, try stick to repos
[01:47] <AETE_KRAOUD> brandon: repos repos only repos (they are tested)
[01:48] <brandon_> remimber im a noob at ubuntu
[01:48] <brandon_> i have only been using it for a few days now
[01:48] <Titan8990> brandon_, and we are helping/teaching you :)
[01:48] <AETE_KRAOUD> brandon: cool keep on dude :-)
[01:48] <ActionParsnip1> brandon_: i would install the desktop and get used to the system rather than installing server
[01:48] <brandon_> ?
[01:49] <Dillizar> there was a program for installing windows programs but not WINE, does any body knows other programs
[01:49] <AETE_KRAOUD> brandon:  find your self a nice tutorial about linux
[01:49] <Titan8990> ActionParsnip1, It was brando that installing the server, not brandon
[01:49] <ActionParsnip1> brandon_: you are talking about instaling ubuntu server when you are an ubuntu newuser
[01:49] <adante> LjL: cheers
[01:49] <ActionParsnip1> Titan8990: gah
[01:49] <Titan8990> ActionParsnip1, hehe, happens
[01:49] <brandon_> no
[01:49] <_Xenu> Dillizar, if it's a .msi try msiexec .. otherwise not sure what you mean
[01:50] <brandon_> crap man i just dont grt it
[01:50] <brandon_> get**
[01:50] <redvamp128> Dillizar:  I think you are thinking of Winedoors or boardeux (but both depend on a wine to be installed)
[01:50] <Zykotic> Dillizar, "Crossover" is a commercial version of wine for installing MS Apps
[01:50] <Titan8990> brandon_, still trying to understand how to install perl or the terminal based IRC client?
[01:50] <AETE_KRAOUD> brandon : ask somebody here to give a link with a comprehensive tutorial on ubuntu server if you can't find one you own
[01:51] <ActionParsnip1> brandon_: as a new user to linux, use the desktop. the server can do all the same functionality and will give you a desktop and sound etc by default
[01:51] <AETE_KRAOUD> brandon: DO not afraid to ask
[01:51] <Brando753> i use ubuntu desktop on all my computer but my desktop, which is a file and printer share between all the other computers , why i am installing ubuntu server :d
[01:51] <redvamp128> Dillizar:  unless you are thinking of Dos-box
[01:51] <linny1> Dillizar: theres also cedga thats a commercial version of wine for games playonlinux is free frontend for games in wine
[01:51] <Brando753> And as a local intranet
[01:51] <Dillizar> linny1, is it better than wine??
[01:51] <brandon_> okay how do i se the desktop
[01:52] <brandon_> and also what is DDOS
[01:52] <linny1> Dillizar: it is wine just with a gui frontend
[01:52] <ActionParsnip1> brandon_: the server doesnt come with a gui by default
[01:52] <Titan8990> brandon_, denial of service maybe
[01:52] <linny1> brandon_: denial of service attack
[01:52] <ActionParsnip1> !info ddos
[01:53] <brandon_> my friend was talking on his server and someone was threting him with DDOS
[01:53] <AETE_KRAOUD> brandon_, :  You can use ubuntu as a server exactly as ubuntu server
[01:53] <Dr_Willis> Distributed Denial of Service
[01:53] <Titan8990> linny1, if you were talking about playonlinux, all it really is a GUI with a collection of configuration/installation scripts
[01:53] <linny1> Dr_Willis: i stand corrected :)
[01:53] <Dr_Willis> one of the many task window-infected-zombie machines are used for
[01:53] <AETE_KRAOUD> brandon :a server just ... have some extra programms
[01:54] <Titan8990> AETE_KRAOUD, often times a linux server kernel is configured differently than the desktop kernel
[01:54] <AETE_KRAOUD> brandon: but a server is can be only 4 lines of a python script
[01:54] <Titan8990> AETE_KRAOUD, one expample is the ubuntu-server kernel comes with PAE enabled by default
[01:54] <brandon_> okay terminal is like windows dos mode
[01:54] <AETE_KRAOUD> Titan: yes that is true
[01:54] <Dillizar> linny1, i this playonlinux its the program i was looking for that i was using it year a go
[01:54] <brandon_> kindo of
[01:54] <brandon_> kind of**
[01:54] <linny1> Titan8990: yes all these derivatives are wine really just makes it easyer to do what you need wioth them
[01:54] <fearful> how can I fully remove openoffice for a reinstall I checked synaptic and all
[01:55] <Titan8990> brandon_, yes, it is similar but BASH is worlds beyond DOS
[01:55] <AETE_KRAOUD> Titan89***: yes of course
[01:55] <Titan8990> brandon_, in power and ease of use
[01:55] <AETE_KRAOUD> brandon : also bash has great autocompletion since many many years now :-)
[01:55] <Titan8990> fearful, sudo apt-get remove --purge openoffice.org && sudo apt-get install openoffice.org
[01:56] <Titan8990> fearful, thats the command, but the package name might be incorrect
[01:56] <brandon_> i use to use CygWin Bash Shell on my windows but you can deal with ./conf files
[01:56] <Brando753> whats a minimal vitrual machine install
[01:56] <Brando753> whats a minimal vitrual machine install
[01:56] <brandon_> so i switched to Ubuntu
[01:56] <Brando753> sorry i double hit that :P
[01:56] <fearful> Titan8990, yea I know I've done purge, but when I check for updates the oo3 don't come up anymore they did before after the bad install = gone
[01:56] <AETE_KRAOUD> brandon : it is a minimal virtual macine install
[01:57] <AETE_KRAOUD> brandon753 : it is a minimal virtual macine install
[01:57] <Brando753> yes, but what is the diffrence between a non vitual install?
[01:57] <brandon_> you know what i will switch my nick so we dont get confues
[01:57] <AETE_KRAOUD> brandon753 : minimal is minimal
[01:57] <brandon_> you know what i will switch my nick so we dont get confued
[01:57] <Titan8990> fearful, you have to add the openoffice repositories to your sources.list would be my guess
[01:57] <nubcake> need some help ;x  I had ubuntu installed, and then with some extra disc space I installed windows 7 in a new partition.  Well obviously that wrote over the mbr, I have ubuntu live runnin, chroot into my drive, im in grub, what do i need to do to have grub reinstall onto mbr?
[01:57] <AnODa> When I log out of a tty, the getty doesn't restart - is this a common problem?
[01:57] <fearful> Titan8990, they are there
[01:57] <AETE_KRAOUD> brandon : nothing is NOTHING at all...
[01:57] <nubcake> and have it scan for the windows 7 partition.
[01:58] <Titan8990> fearful, sudo apt-get update
[01:58] <fearful> Titan8990, dione
[01:58] <redvamp128> !grub | nubcake
[01:58] <Brando753> im more confused now, then i was before
[01:58] <Blast> where can i find sudo
[01:58] <fearful> Titan8990, if I install through the deb packages, openoffice opens but crashes automatically
[01:58] <Blast> !info sudo
[01:58] <nubcake> redvamp128: thanks
[01:59] <fearful> Titan8990, any ideas with that?
[01:59] <AETE_KRAOUD> Brando753: why ? you don't understand  english ? there is also google translate etc if you want to
[01:59] <exodus_ms> If i want to use   show interface eth0 && hostname   without installing 'nmh' how can I print just the eth0 ipaddr and hostname
[01:59] <LjL> Blast: it's a command. you type it.
[01:59] <Brando753> ;(
[01:59] <Titan8990> fearful, no, sorry
[01:59] <LjL> !sudo > Blast    (Blast, see the private message from ubottu)
[01:59] <Brando753> >:(
[01:59] <fearful> Titan8990, ok thanks
[01:59] <Brando753> will ubuntu server work with a wifi card?
[01:59] <AnODa> 5mo3nitw
[02:00] <AETE_KRAOUD> Brand753 : yes it will , why not ?
[02:00] <Titan8990> Brando753, depends on the wifi card
[02:00] <Blast> i just want to know where it is
[02:00] <Titan8990> Brando753, it uses a linux kernel just like every other ubuntu distro
[02:00] <_Xenu> Blast, which sudo
[02:00] <Blast> h/o
[02:00] <Blast> apps install
[02:00] <Brando753> one that fives me much trouble, (as in didnt work) with ubuntu 7.something in wubi :D
[02:00] <x-f> hello
[02:00] <Titan8990> Blast, sorry?
[02:00] <Brando753> gives
[02:01] <linny1> Blast: type which sudo it will tell you where it is in your $PATH
[02:01] <eseven73> Does Unison not work with a passwordless SSH setup? it cannot connect, but im able to connect to ssh no problem without using unison...
[02:01] <Titan8990> Brando753, that doesn't really help me to determine if its linux compatible
[02:01] <Brando753> :P
[02:01] <Blast> idk
[02:01] <Brando753> 1 sec
[02:01] <mib_90awkb8l> Hi everyone
[02:01] <x-f> i have a littel problem ;) since the last update from kate. All files open in a new window
[02:01] <mib_90awkb8l> I'm a new ubuntu user
[02:01] <mib_90awkb8l> I'm having a problem
[02:02] <mib_90awkb8l> with synaptic package manager
[02:02] <Titan8990> !ask | mib_90awkb8l
[02:02] <linny1> mib_90awkb8l: welcome just ask your question
[02:02] <AETE_KRAOUD> Brando753:  go to a site like linux hardware and check if your wi-fi is supported
[02:02] <UncleD> Does the ubuntu php package come with PHP compiled with GD2 support
[02:02] <mib_90awkb8l> Ok, so the package manager was working fine a few minutes ago
[02:02] <mib_90awkb8l> and now
[02:02] <mib_90awkb8l> when i click on it
[02:02] <mib_90awkb8l> it doesnt maximize
[02:03] <Brando753> hey what can ubuntu server do that ubuntu desktop cant?
[02:03] <AETE_KRAOUD> UncleD, : i think no but you can easily check this out with php info function
[02:03] <mib_90awkb8l> it just stays minized
[02:03] <x-f> php -> php5-gd ;)
[02:03] <mib_90awkb8l> it does this even after i restarted my comp
[02:03] <Blast> okay
[02:03] <mib_90awkb8l> any ideas?
[02:03] <Titan8990> Brando753, support more than 4GB or RAM
[02:03] <linny1> mib_90awkb8l: you tried switching it off and on again
[02:03] <linny1> lol sorry
[02:03] <RoastedTiresX> I followed the directions for installing a network printer to share from my Ubuntu machine to XP Pro clients and the install isn't working the way the guide says it should.
[02:03] <Brando753> anything else?
[02:03] <Titan8990> Brando753, and support more clients because ALL of its resources will be devouted to server applications
[02:04] <mib_90awkb8l> ya i restarted it... its really strange how it does this even after a restart...
[02:04] <Titan8990> Brando753, other than that, nothing really
[02:04] <usser> Brando753, the question is what it cant do, it doesnt have all the bloat of ubuntu-desktop like networkmanager, pulseaudio, gnome
[02:04] <mib_90awkb8l> it was working fine a few minutes ago...
[02:04] <mib_90awkb8l> i was trying to install samba
[02:04] <mib_90awkb8l> i clicked install
[02:04] <x-f> Anyone have a idear kate start always in a new window
[02:04] <mib_90awkb8l> and it just never maximized after the isntall completed
[02:04] <Brando753> can i run virtual servers on ubuuntu desktop
[02:04] <Blast> well i cant remimber
[02:04] <mib_90awkb8l> is there a way to do like system recovory like in windows?
[02:05] <Titan8990> Brando753, if your hardware supports virtualization
[02:05] <Blast> its on my windows in my mirc log file
[02:05] <Blast> somewhere
[02:05] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, :  i found you one solution maybe
[02:05] <sebsebseb> mib_90awkb8l: you don't need to do system recovery in Linux
[02:05] <bonhoffer> i want to zip a directory
[02:05] <Brando753> how would i run a virtual servers on ubuntu desktop
[02:05] <bonhoffer> websearch is not helping
[02:05] <sebsebseb> !virtualbox
[02:05] <sebsebseb> !vmware
[02:05] <usser> Brando753, even if there's no virtualization specific features in your hardware you can still run virtual machine
[02:06] <mib_90awkb8l> whats the solution?
[02:06] <Titan8990> usser, CAN, but I personally wouldn't want to....
[02:06] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : So back up your /home/YOURNAME/.synaptic/synaptic.conf file
[02:06] <x-f> !kate
[02:06] <_Xenu> bonhoffer, zip -r
[02:06] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : and then delete the original log of
[02:06] <Blast> okay i am reading this irssi
[02:06] <linny1> mib_90awkb8l: will your pc still update ?
[02:06] <Brando753> and can you get rid of ubuntu if you wanted to and no probloms on boot up?
[02:06] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : and log in again
[02:06] <bonhoffer> _Xenu, thanks
[02:06] <Blast> but idk how
[02:06] <disappearedng> hey everyone, my azureus frooze, and I tried to kill it under system monitor, however, after 'killing it' it still persists: any idea on how I could eradicate this proccess?
[02:07] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : try it but be sure to back up that file
[02:07] <Blast> to compile the irssi
[02:07] <usser> disappearedng, killall -9
[02:07] <Titan8990> Brando753, I think that you don't quite understand how virtualization works
[02:07] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, :  ok ???
[02:07] <bonhoffer> to be mac compatible gzip or zip the directory?
[02:07] <Brando753> not refering to virtulization anymore :D
[02:07] <heatmzzr> to install a dual boot with winblows and ubuntu, which gets installed first????
[02:07] <linny1> disappearedng: ps -A find the proc then kill it with the pid
[02:07] <sebsebseb> heatmzzr: best to put Windows on first
[02:07] <linny1>  heatmzzr: windows cos its fussy
[02:07] <Titan8990> Brando753, no, you will have to restore the windows MBR
[02:07] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  : ???
[02:07] <RoastedTiresX> I followed the directions for installing a network printer to share from my Ubuntu machine to XP Pro clients and the install isn't working the way the guide says it should.
[02:07] <Titan8990> !grub | Brando753
[02:08] <Blast> hell idk how to compile the .conf file
[02:08] <mib_90awkb8l> hmm
[02:08] <sebsebseb> heatmzzr: ,because Windows does not play nice with other OS's and so would overwrite Grub.  Grub could be re installed, but it's a  bit of a pain
[02:08] <mib_90awkb8l> i dont see a dir called .synaptic...
[02:08] <bonhoffer> _Xenu, i get "zip error: Nothing to do! (outliers_2.zip)"
[02:08] <Brando753> so i cant just get rid of ubuntu partition?
[02:08] <heatmzzr> windows sucks, been running ubuntu only for awhile but having issues witha few of the computers at work all running winblows
[02:08] <Titan8990> mib_90awkb8l, ctrl+h to see hidden files
[02:08] <_Xenu> bonhoffer, show your whole command
[02:08] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : press Ctrl + h to see it in nautilus  , it is hidden
[02:09] <heatmzzr> are any of you familiar with omniform???
[02:09] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : or type ls -la in bash
[02:09] <Brando753> windows does suck but i need 1 windows computer for some programs
[02:09] <Titan8990> bonhoffer, I suggest reading:  man zip
[02:09] <bonhoffer> zip -r outliers_2/
[02:09] <mib_90awkb8l> ok ill try it
[02:09] <disappearedng> thx uuser
[02:09] <bonhoffer> sure
[02:09] <_Xenu> bonhoffer, what Titan8990 says
[02:09] <AETE_KRAOUD> Brando753, : so what's the problem , just dual boot or use a VM ;)
[02:10] <Blast> any tips about IRSSI that can help me out
[02:10] <bonhoffer> _Xenu, simple enough
[02:10] <disappearedng> linny1 the azureus dead proccess still persists:
[02:10] <disappearedng> usser: actually killall -9 java didn't kill it it's still here
[02:10] <Blast> oh and also, how do i stop myself from pinging out?
[02:10] <Dr_Willis> the IRSSI homepage has some very well done docs.
[02:11] <Wildburn> man im beginning to hate Ubuntu on this laptop
[02:11] <chelz> trying to play a DVD with any media player, not even mplayer works. here is mplayers output: http://pastebin.com/m6f4638ad   does anyone see any errors?
[02:11] <mib_90awkb8l> strange, with hidden files shown i see a bunch of other dirs starting with "." but no .synaptic...
[02:11] <linny1> disappearedng: well if its still running there will be a process there on the list
[02:11] <mib_90awkb8l> i check in bash
[02:11] <mib_90awkb8l> i mean
[02:11] <mib_90awkb8l> termina
[02:11] <mib_90awkb8l> and the actual folder
[02:11] <Titan8990> Wildburn, soon you will learn like many of us to by hardware based on linux compatibility :)
[02:11] <bertolo> hi how can i download latest man pages ?
[02:11] <mib_90awkb8l> but i dont see it
[02:11] <FloodBot1> mib_90awkb8l: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:11] <chelz> mib_90awkb8l: ls -lah | grep ".syn"
[02:12] <disappearedng> linny1: ps aux | grep 'java' gives 1000      7287 19.0  0.0      0     0 ?        Zl   Feb28 730:48 [java] <defunct> and 1000     32667  0.0  0.0   3240   804 pts/0    S+   10:12   0:00 grep java
[02:12] <bertolo> hi how can i download latest man pages ? plz
[02:12] <mib_90awkb8l> tryed that command
[02:12] <mib_90awkb8l> nothing
[02:13] <nickrud> bertolo, man pages come with the apps; do you mean the development man pages?
[02:13] <bertolo> yes
[02:13] <bertolo> nickrud my man pages are incomplete...
[02:13] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : so it is not a problem of synaptic hmm that's a another app problem hhm i am wandering why
[02:13] <Blast> how much memory dose Ubuntu hold?
[02:14] <Wildburn> Titan8990: according to everything I read this should be compatible, its just completely unhelpful as far as troubleshooting the problems im running into
[02:14] <linny1> disappearedng: i dunno if it was me i would just reboot
[02:14] <Titan8990> Wildburn, what laptop and what problems?
[02:14] <chelz> Wildburn: what sort
[02:14] <disappearedng> yeah I was thinking of that, but that's so windows
[02:14] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : did you backed up then deleted and then log off and log in again ???
[02:14] <nickrud> bertolo, install manpages-dev , maybe also manpages-posix-dev
[02:14] <mib_90awkb8l> backed up what?
[02:15] <mib_90awkb8l> the synaptic log?
[02:15] <mib_90awkb8l> i cant find it
[02:15] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : yes
[02:15] <Wildburn> Titan8990:Compaq Tc1000, no matter how I install nvidia drivers, nothing but black screen after Ubuntu loader runs. Happens the second I put Driver "nvidia" in xorg.conf, thing is Xorg.0.log shows no errors whatsoever
[02:15] <mib_90awkb8l> like i said, the folder doesnt show up...
[02:15] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : try press ctrl + h
[02:15] <mib_90awkb8l> i did
[02:15] <ohzie> Wildburn, I've always had the sketchiest luck with HP/compaq stuff
[02:15] <mib_90awkb8l> it didnt work
[02:15] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : and ?
[02:15] <mib_90awkb8l> like
[02:16] <mib_90awkb8l> i saw the hidden directories
[02:16] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  : go to the console
[02:16] <ohzie> Wildburn, I don't buy laptops now, until after I've checked out their compatibility in great detail
[02:16] <mib_90awkb8l> but none of them was synaptic
[02:16] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : type  cd ~
[02:16] <Wildburn> ohzie: thing is this laptop is 7 years old, just wanted to get off winxp
[02:16] <mib_90awkb8l> ls -lah | grep ".syn"
[02:16] <Titan8990> Wildburn, hehe HP and Compaq from my experience have been the worst in terms of lInux compatibility
[02:16] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : then ls -la | grep '.syn'
[02:16] <mib_90awkb8l> thats the command i typed
[02:16] <adante> hey folks when i try to boot ubuntu it says ACPI: aborted because crc error - what is this?
[02:16] <ohzie> Wildburn, Oh
[02:16] <mib_90awkb8l> i still didnt see it
[02:16] <ohzie> That's pretty amazing
[02:16] <ohzie> Maybe it's the wrong driver
[02:16] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  :and the output ? stiil nothing ???
[02:16] <chelz> Wildburn: what about System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers tool?
[02:16] <ohzie> and you're using something too new?
[02:17] <Wildburn> Titan8990: amazingly enough everything works fine, including tablet pen and buttons, but the video card always gives me a black screen
[02:17] <mib_90awkb8l> the output was nthing
[02:17] <maxagaz> what's the name of the command to configure all packages ?
[02:17] <shifty5> does anyone know how to fix the pulseadio error, modules-x11-xsmp will not load?
[02:17] <mib_90awkb8l> i dont know if this will help but i think i clicked something like move to another workspace before it got messed up
[02:17] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : OK here is another solution
[02:17] <Wildburn> chelz: to be honest I think its a xorg.conf issue
[02:17] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : install adebt manager
[02:17] <bertolo> nickrud:  thks  :D
[02:17] <maxagaz> ap-get configure -a or something like that
[02:17] <Titan8990> Wildburn, are you sure that card is supported by the proprietary nvidia drivers? I was fairly certain they were only for the geforce series cards
[02:17] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : then unistall synaptic and reinstall it from adept manager
[02:18] <Wildburn> chelz:Ive tried download drivers with hardware drivers applet, tried going through synaptic, tried download direct from Nvidia and installing
[02:18] <chelz> Wildburn: the automatic tools has always worked for me. i'd backup your xorg.conf and try it if you haven't
[02:18] <mib_90awkb8l> ok ill try it
[02:18] <cjae> Hi I installed today like this "/=sda1 10 gigs, swap= sda2 1gig, /home =sda3 rest of 160gig drive " grub = (hd0)
[02:18] <Wildburn> Titan, its a gefroce2 go
[02:18] <chelz> Wildburn: the Hardware Drivers tool? have you treid?
[02:18] <Titan8990> Wildburn, nvm, it is geforce, checking compatibility for you
[02:18] <cjae> what sector will /boot be on?
[02:18] <Wildburn> Titan8990 there is a big bug thing on it, but now I cant find it again of course
[02:18] <Blast> how do i log into a server VIA ssh?
[02:18] <chelz> Wildburn: same black screen ah.. hmm
[02:19] <linny1> Blast: ssh username@serverip
[02:19] <Wildburn> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-71/+bug/251107
[02:19] <usser> cjae, /boot will go into sda1
[02:19] <Blast> whats this serverip
[02:19] <Blast> ?
[02:19] <Blast> i want to try it
[02:19] <linny1> Blast: your a troll man
[02:19] <Wildburn> according to that link it should work, but I never get anything but a blank screen after the ubuntu loader
[02:19] <cplx__> hi guys - i have checked my dmesg and it says the following 'sendmail: config error; mail loops back to me (MX Problem?)' where can I check the server it is trying to relay to/from?
[02:20] <chuckh1958> Is there a way to get nautilus to use the openssh ssh-agent? I have my key cached but when I enter a URL like sftp:// in nautilus it still prompts for the passphrase
[02:20] <Titan8990> Wildburn, that is for quadro card
[02:20] <Wildburn> search that page for geforce2 go
[02:20] <cjae> usser: right but what sector because I am getting grub error 18 which is boot boundry limit (8 gigs - new disk in old machine)
[02:20] <mib_90awkb8l> AETE_KRAOUD	wait, apt-get configure -a isnt the right command is it? sorry, im new with linux so i need the exact command...
[02:20] <Wildburn> third time you search guy installs them with directions on that page
[02:20] <cjae> usser: what I can't figure out is why /boot gets installed beyond sector 1023
[02:20] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, :  do do what ?
[02:21] <mib_90awkb8l> to install an application
[02:21] <usser> cjae, its not that fine tuned, once you allocated spaced, filesystem decides where to put stuff
[02:21] <cjae> usser: by default
[02:21] <mib_90awkb8l> adebt manager
[02:21] <Wildburn> thing is the second I add anything to xorg.conf even things not relating to the Driver "nvidia" I get a black screen
[02:21] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : no is apt -get install MYAPP
[02:21] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : exactly --> apt-get install MYAPP
[02:21] <Titan8990> Wildburn, have you considered just using the open source nvidia drivers?
[02:21] <Daremo> hello
[02:22] <Wildburn> Titan, no 3d accel on the nv drivers
[02:22] <usser> cjae, and its usually not /boot that matters, /boot can be anywhere on the harddrive really, its the bootloader that spits that error, and bootloader is a small portion of code residing in the mbr or first 1023 sectors of a partition
[02:22] <C-S-B> don't configure nvidia yourself, get envy
[02:22] <Titan8990> Wildburn, I actually can't find any information about that card in the nvidia website, other than the fact that it was there first mobile graphics chip
[02:22] <Daremo> looking for a little help with ati 9200/9250 and compiz
[02:22] <usser> cjae, but yea its really weird that it did manage to install itself way off limits
[02:22] <Daremo> running intrepid
[02:22] <Wildburn> Titan, youd have to look in the supported devices list to find that its supported by the 96.43.xx series drivers
[02:22] <adante> hi guys i am trying to boot the 8.10 livecd - it gives me a "ACPI: Aborted because crc error" and then kernel panic and the system freezes - i tried booting the livecd with noacpi but it still does this
[02:23] <adante> how can i install ubuntu?
[02:23] <cjae> usser: grub looks for /boot so is important
[02:23] <Titan8990> adante, you should use acpi=off
[02:23] <TuX_> hey
[02:23] <_VIM_> !install | adante
[02:23] <Titan8990> adante, noacpi is not a kernel option
[02:24] <vadi2> How can I run a script that uses sudo at gnome session start automatically, without asking for password the second time?
[02:24] <usser> cjae, well did you try the suggested fix, ie create a separate boot partition in the beginning of the drive
[02:24] <Titan8990> adante, you may have been thinking of noapic
[02:24] <naddix> how can i make ics stick after restart
[02:24] <usser> vadi2, sudo visudo
[02:25] <usser> vadi2, add the command that you dont want to prompted the password for
[02:25] <Daremo> anyone good with the open source video drivers for ATI rv280 chipset?
[02:25] <mib_90awkb8l> ok its installing. so when its done, i uninstall synaptic and reinstall it?
[02:25] <Daremo> and compiz?
[02:25] <vadi2> usser: oh? ok, going to try it
[02:25] <cjae> usser: can you tell what sector your /boot was installed too
[02:25] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : yes what else ?
[02:25] <usser> vadi2, something like ALL ALL = NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown
[02:25] <mib_90awkb8l> just checking
[02:25] <vadi2> usser: how do they work together
[02:26] <usser> cjae, i just don't know, the only thing i know is my /boot is not on a separate partition and my grub is in mbr
[02:26] <vadi2> if lets say I just need to run script.sh at start to fix my webcam
[02:26] <vadi2> sudo visudo script.sh ?
[02:26] <cjae> usser: so I can see if a reinstall is necessary cause I would like to know if this is going to happen on all machines I want to install on
[02:26] <usser> vadi2, ALL ALL = NOPASSWD: /blah/path/script.sh
[02:26] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : it should be ok after that because your synaptic didn't have some conf file so now it will might have one as normal
[02:26] <vadi2> usser: alright
[02:26] <usser> vadi2, visudo just a safe way to edit /etc/sudoers file which is responsible for granting permissions
[02:26] <Titan8990> vadi2, its more appropriate to not include sudo in the script and require sudo to be used to execute it
[02:27] <Titan8990> vadi2, sudo /path/to/my/script
[02:27] <vadi2> oh, so I add that line to the file?
[02:27] <vadi2> and then do sudo script.sh?
[02:27] <Titan8990> vadi2, no....
[02:27] <vadi2> I need to run this script auto without asking for password
[02:27] <usser> cjae, your setup is pretty normal, most common in fact, im not sure what went wrong, maybe the bios IS involved somehow, i did hundreds installations with pretty much the same settings
[02:27] <Daremo> should i be in a different channel for video card questions?
[02:27] <usser> cjae, are you using RAID?
[02:27] <cjae> usser: the ubuntu installer should not install /boot beyond 1023 though right, I wish to not a /boot first if it is just a installer
[02:28] <cjae> usser: problem
[02:28] <cjae> usser: no
[02:28] <Titan8990> vadi2, auto, as in cron?
[02:28] <vadi2> Titan8990: as in gnome session
[02:28] <Blast> linny1; you dont need to be a dick man
[02:28] <vadi2> Titan8990: or when webcam is plugged in really.
[02:28] <Nom-> Howdy all.  Should be a quick question.  Is there a simple command line option which can suppress the ubuntu debchange behaviour of adding -ubuntuX to the end of changelog versions?
[02:28] <Titan8990> vadi2, does the script load a module?
[02:29] <AETE_KRAOUD> vadi2, : so you need it's time you plagg the webcam e?
[02:29] <vadi2> Titan8990: no, it just does something like "sudo mv /dev/video0 /dev/video1"
[02:29] <usser> cjae, i wouldn't know why it did it. But really try a separate /boot partition. its a good practice anyway. too bad ubuntu thinks otherwise
[02:29] <Gosujii-sama> quick question about router linksys i need to know someone that knows how to configure it for iroffer n such since i thought i had it right still didnt work
[02:29] <vadi2> to make some gtsfakevideo work which in turn makes skype video work (sorry, ekiga isnt an option)
[02:29] <cjae> ANYONE else in the channel tell me what sector /boot is one on their system, normal setup, appologize for caps, just trying to call attention in busy channel
[02:30] <cjae> usser: thats probably what I m going to have to do
[02:30] <AETE_KRAOUD> vadi2, : have you tried to search skype forums etc ?
[02:30] <AETE_KRAOUD> vadi2, : just asking
[02:31] <vadi2> AETE_KRAOUD: yes, and I have it working... I just need to run this script as root now
[02:31] <Daremo> need some help trying to run compiz
[02:31] <vadi2> AETE_KRAOUD: and it all works fine. But I'm unable to run it as root
[02:31] <Gosujii-sama> cjae, alot of people use like 8 different partitions for it /boot /usr/bin and such including /home
[02:31] <vadi2> without being root
[02:31] <ljt1> 有中国人么
[02:31] <AETE_KRAOUD> vadi2, : hmmm i ithink i know why
[02:31] <Titan8990> vadi2, what you would want to do is add mv to nopassword to /etc/sudoers, but I honestly don't recommend it
[02:31] <Titan8990> vadi2, it sounds to me like you are working around a problem instead of solving it
[02:31] <usser> vadi2, try modifying sudoers file. thats exactly what you're asking for
[02:31] <AETE_KRAOUD> vadi2, : i think you need to log in to a shell as a root
[02:32] <usser> Titan8990, yep
[02:32] <mikeshollen> does anyone know what program allows you to install usplash screens with a gui window instead of terminal commands?
[02:32] <cjae> Gosujii-sama: right, I lots partition for /var due to the size of logs
[02:32] <vadi2> Titan8990: yes, I am... what else to do
[02:32] <usser> mikeshollen, startupmanager
[02:32] <AETE_KRAOUD> vadi2, : not sudo command but su root and then type your root password
[02:32] <vadi2> I just need it to work
[02:32] <Gosujii-sama> cjae, yep alot of people do that
[02:32] <ronin_> ubuntu is sticking while doing a routine check of drives.. it gets stuck at the same % each time
[02:32] <mikeshollen> usser: that's exactly what I was trying to remember, thank you so much
[02:32] <Zykotic> Daremo I'm no expert with ATI, only use Nvidia myself, do you have Direct Rendering right now?  "glxinfo | grep direct"
[02:32] <Daremo> hello?
[02:32] <vadi2> ok I'll give that a try :) bbl
[02:32] <Daremo> yes
[02:32] <Gosujii-sama> cjae, so partitioning your root is nothing new most do it
[02:32] <usser> AETE_KRAOUD, thats not what he wants, he wants root priviliges for a script without typing his password
[02:32] <AETE_KRAOUD> vadi2, : and then you will be the real root user not fake sudoer one
[02:33] <vadi2> AETE_KRAOUD: what do you mean
[02:33] <Daremo> yes i do Zykotic
[02:33] <vadi2> I need to run this script without asking for a password
[02:33] <Gosujii-sama> cjae, i saw a doc somewhere where someone had 10 partitions for a windows/linux split
[02:33] <AETE_KRAOUD> usser, : hmmm ok know i know
[02:33] <Zykotic> mikeshollen, are you using Intrepid?  if so there are almost no available usplash themes...  I don't know of a GUI
[02:33] <cjae> Gosujii-sama: I am wondering why a default ubuntu install would think it is good idea that it put /boot beyond sector 1023 of sda1
[02:33] <usser> mikeshollen, no problem
[02:33] <Zykotic> Daremo, and what happens if you enable compiz?
[02:33] <Gosujii-sama> cjae, i couldnt answer that i would have though it would be sector 1
[02:33] <Daremo> i tried to look up if the 9250 is blacklisted, and i dont think so, but man finding info is so hard sometimes.
[02:33] <Gosujii-sama> cjae, actually i can
[02:34] <Gosujii-sama> cjae, it does that from what i understand because of filesystems
[02:34] <AETE_KRAOUD> vadi2, : so you need to make a link of the executable you use in the script to the usr/local/bin folder where there is not needed any root priveleges
[02:34] <vadi2> AETE_KRAOUD: oh? thanks
[02:34] <Daremo> i enable compiz by going to appearance/visual effects tab and select Extra right?
[02:34] <AETE_KRAOUD> vadi2, : but this is sometimes not recomended for security reasons :-)
[02:34] <vadi2> AETE_KRAOUD: Yeah understandable
[02:34] <Zykotic> Daremo, that works
[02:34] <tiyowan> Daremo, correct.
[02:34] <AETE_KRAOUD> vadi2, : so keep in mind that :-)
[02:34] <Gosujii-sama> cjae, the first section is your filesystem
[02:35]  * usser sighs
[02:35] <vadi2> AETE_KRAOUD: I don't care though, need to make this thing just work, until I buy a decent camera that Ubuntu supports (it half-supports this one)
[02:35] <cjae> Gosujii-sama: this happens with xubuntu too which is extremely stupid (since lots of ppl install xubuntu on machines with a 8gig bios boundry) unless there is a reason for it
[02:36] <cjae> Gosujii-sama: ext 3
[02:36] <usser> vadi2, what are you trying to run exactly? there are places to add system-wide boot up scripts besides gnome-sessions
[02:36] <adante> ok
[02:36] <cjae> Gosujii-sama: for /
[02:36] <Gosujii-sama> cjae, i understand it cuzz i was looking into installing ubuntu on a 8gig thumb
[02:36] <Daremo> sorry had some video problems suddenly
[02:36] <vadi2> usser: "sudo mv /dev/video0 /dev/video1"
[02:36] <Daremo> when i try to enble it
[02:36] <ronin_> How do I make the settings in ATI catayst control center stick after reboot? they always reset again
[02:36] <adante> i am now booting the 8.10 livecd with acpi=off pnpbios=off, and the message [ 17.410437] crc error comes up followed by a kernel panic
[02:36] <vadi2> usser: which is only created when the cam is plugged in, I think
[02:36] <AETE_KRAOUD> vadi2, : that's great if it does not work FINALLY COPY THE HALL FILE THERE AS A ROOT and give it the name you want and lastly make it chown yourname
[02:36] <Daremo> i get a desktop effects cant be enabled message
[02:36] <Titan8990> !alternate | adante
[02:36] <Gosujii-sama> cjae, i thought it would be a better setup than it was for the system but thats how they wanted to do it for better running of the system
[02:36] <adante> i am pretty sure this cd is ok because i used it to install on another computer
[02:37] <usser> vadi2, put this in your /etc/rc.local: ln -s /dev/video0 /dev/video1
[02:37] <Delvien> C/leave
[02:37] <usser> vadi2, thats all
[02:37] <Gosujii-sama> anyone know anything about linksys routers that i can bug real quick?
[02:37] <AETE_KRAOUD> vadi2, : good luck :-)
[02:37] <usser> vadi2, before exit 0 line
[02:37] <Titan8990> adante, it sounds like your computer is not very linux compatible but you can give the alternate a shot
[02:37] <Zykotic> Daremo, and your sure that "glxinfo | grep direct" says YES
[02:37] <vadi2> usser: ok, thank you very much, hope that works :)
[02:38] <adante> Titan8990: bizarre thing is i had 8.04 on here
[02:38] <Daremo> rob@rob2:~$ glxinfo | grep direct
[02:38] <Daremo> direct rendering: Yes
[02:38] <Daremo> rob@rob2:~$
[02:39] <Zykotic> Daremo, i take it that's it's never worked?
[02:39] <Daremo> im ready to take this card out of the pc and hit it with a hammer
[02:39] <Daremo> new install, and new to intrepid
[02:39] <AETE_KRAOUD> usser, : that's sounds more reasonable nice idea ;)
[02:39] <Daremo> and to linux
[02:39] <usser> AETE_KRAOUD, yea ;)
[02:39] <Titan8990> Gosujii-sama, its OT so PM me
[02:39] <Daremo> are you familiar with xorg.conf?
[02:39] <mib_90awkb8l> AETE_KRAOUD: i uninstalled it and i reinstalled it, but now i have more problems... i think some other packages were uninstalled with synaptic, idk... but now i cant type anything into the address bar on my browser..
[02:40] <Daremo> cause mine is extremely small
[02:40] <Daremo> ie default it seems
[02:40] <mib_90awkb8l> i have the error message
[02:40] <mib_90awkb8l> i cant really paste it here...
[02:40] <Zykotic> Daremo, what happens if you open a terminal and type "compiz", we're looking for error output of some sort...
[02:40] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : Can you now use synaptic ????
[02:40] <mib_90awkb8l> yes i can
[02:40] <Titan8990> Zykotic, should be compiz-manager  or  compiz --replace
[02:41] <Titan8990> Zykotic, just compiz will error because it is likely he already has a window manager running
[02:41] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : so see the log history and find which apps got  unistalled and install them again ;)
[02:41] <mxiao> totem media player can't play .avi files
[02:41] <ronin_> How do I make the settings in ATI catayst control center stick after reboot? they always reset again
[02:42] <Zykotic> Daremo, did you see that message from Titan8990? about trying "compiz --replace"???
[02:42] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : Adept manager should give you all the history of what has been unistalled ;) Good luck
[02:42] <fnordperfect> g'day, I'm just about to set up my filesystems with ext4. I read that it supports now file creation timestamps and I wanted to ask whether I have to do anything specifically to enable this
[02:43] <fnordperfect> or is it just there by default and just waiting for the whole system software  to catch up and actually use it?
[02:43] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : You should be fine after installing them
[02:43] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : i wait for news
[02:43] <fnordperfect> I'm using kernel 2.6.28, by the way
[02:44] <mxiao> vlc player doesn't have video, any help?
[02:44] <mib_90awkb8l> well, i can use synaptic now, but i cant see a .synaptic folder and i cant find the log for adept
[02:44] <ronin_> and the pixel format changes to 4:2:2 every time i change anything so my tv gets a purple tinge to everything
[02:45] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : I mean you can find the history of adept through the it's Gui
[02:45] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : open adept manager an search  it there must be some history option
[02:46] <mib_90awkb8l> ok ill look for it
[02:48] <melik> im experiencing lots of DPKG problems, i tried sudo dpkg --configure -a and its not able to fix it, what can i do? my log file > http://omploader.org/vMWJqcA
[02:48] <mib_90awkb8l> i checked every tab of adept, nothing lets me see history
[02:48] <AETE_KRAOUD> hmm
[02:49] <Shininggg> i hear Nvidia has put out a new driver how long before it gets in the repository of Ubuntu?
[02:49] <melik> Shininggg, are u talking about 180.35?
[02:49] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : try sudo apt-get install  ubuntu-core --install-recommends
[02:50] <mib_90awkb8l> k
[02:50] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : this type of command attempts to install all  typical and recomended packages
[02:51] <mib_90awkb8l> i get
[02:51] <mib_90awkb8l> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-core --install-recommends
[02:51] <mib_90awkb8l> sorry
[02:51] <mib_90awkb8l> wrong thing
[02:51] <FloodBot1> mib_90awkb8l: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:51] <mib_90awkb8l> E: Couldn't find package ubuntu-core
[02:52] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, :  ok one minute i have to see the exact name of it
[02:54] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : it should be ubuntu-standard
[02:54] <Daremo> sorry
[02:54] <Daremo> something is definately screwed up with my video
[02:54] <Dembroski13> Hello
[02:54] <shavin> when we install ubuntu 8.10 on a pendrive, how much large size should we keep  the partition?(keeping in mind that we plan to install updates and applications in future)
[02:54] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : type  sudo apt-get install  ubuntu
[02:54] <roy_hobbs> Hey, if I'm commenting on a bug in launchpad, how do I reference a bug properly so that it shows up as a link to that bug?
[02:54] <Daremo> when i try to run compiz from terminal i lose most of my screen
[02:54] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : and hit the tab key twice
[02:54] <Daremo> but when i run compiz here is what i get
[02:55] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  : then you will see a list of many similar packages
[02:55] <Dembroski13> 
[02:55] <Dembroski13> sjs
[02:55] <Daremo> you guys ready?
[02:55] <Dembroski13> 
[02:55] <Dembroski13> for what?
[02:55] <Daremo> heheh
[02:55] <mib_90awkb8l> ok
[02:55] <Titan8990> Daremo, wait
[02:55] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : select some of them like ubuntu-standard
[02:55] <Zykotic> Daremo, use paste.ubuntu.com - if your going to paste something big
[02:55] <Daremo> i was working on compiz not working right with ATI 9250
[02:55] <Daremo> its about 10 lines
[02:56] <Titan8990> !pastebin | Daremo
[02:56] <Daremo> not huge
[02:56] <Titan8990> Daremo, anything larger than 3 lines must be sent to pastebin
[02:56] <Daremo> how big is your flood?
[02:56] <Daremo> ok
[02:56] <Titan8990> Daremo, usually 3-5 lines
[02:56] <fearful> Titan8990, I can't get this crap to work openoffice, its really frustrating it has worked so smoothly before :(
[02:56] <Daremo> sent
[02:57] <Titan8990> Daremo, we don't get a link :)?
[02:57] <mib_90awkb8l> so basically sudo apt-get install ubuntu-standard
[02:57] <Daremo> lol
[02:57] <mib_4qsspn> hey has anyone tried  running ubuntu with sun xvm win xp on eeepc 1000h?? how is it?
[02:57] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : yes
[02:57] <Daremo> oops
[02:57] <Titan8990> fearful, understandable
[02:57] <mib_90awkb8l> that command gives me: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[02:57] <mib_90awkb8l> so nothing happened
[02:57] <Daremo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/125568/
[02:57] <fearful> Titan8990, the update problem that won't show up and closing problem if installing through deb
[02:58] <Daremo> i am beginning to REALLY hate this video card
[02:58] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : i wouldn't say just try all the other ubutu-XXXX  but youi have to find the apps that were unistalled
[02:58] <Daremo> and i want to kick ATI in the dingding for not supporting a product still for retail sale in stores
[02:59] <Titan8990> Daremo, is 2560x1024 really your resolution?
[02:59] <Daremo> dual screen
[02:59] <Titan8990> Daremo, oh....
[02:59] <Zykotic> Daremo, FYI Nvidia is MUCH easier to get working then ATI for 3D games/compiz stuff - YMMV
[02:59] <Daremo> heheh that wouldbe one HUGE single monitor otherwise
[02:59] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l, : There must be a workaround with the apt-get command it' self
[02:59] <Daremo> yea
[02:59] <aSt3raL> anyone know of a good getting started howto for ajax on ubuntu?
[02:59] <Titan8990> Daremo, well, I am fairly certain that is the line that is causing it to fail
[02:59] <Daremo> cept that means i gotta go buy one
[02:59] <Daremo> grumble
[02:59] <ronin_> I really wish linux didn't hate me
[02:59] <Daremo> so i gotta reduce my virtual desktop?
[03:00] <Titan8990> Daremo, my laptop (which aslo has ATI) gets more errors than that but still runs
[03:00] <Titan8990> Daremo, however, the resolution error is the only one that it does not get
[03:00] <Titan8990> Daremo, I couldn't say for sure but it may be worth looking in to
[03:00] <Shininggg> melik: yeah, sorry it was long
[03:00] <Daremo> i had found a troubleshooting tool for compiz a little while ago
[03:00] <Daremo> and it did say something about the resolution being too big
[03:01] <Daremo> for the card
[03:01] <bittyx> hello! i have a problem with my sound. i have an integrated sound card, and a creative soundcard in one of the slots. i don't use the integrated one. i've installed audacious and when i select the OSS driver in the preferences, i can hear the sound, but i cannot control the volume. however, if i select the pulseaudio or alsa drivers, i don't hear anything. i'd be happy to provide more info if someone is willing to help me.
[03:01] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  : my final idea to find the unistalled file
[03:01] <Daremo> so does that mean if i want to run compiz, i would either have to switch to low resolutions on the screens? or run one monitor?
[03:01] <wodKja> is there a simple way to get ubuntu to pick up the hostnames of intranet web servers? so if i have a server called 'server' i can type http://server into firefox and itll load
[03:01] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  :  files
[03:01] <Titan8990> Daremo, not sure, pull a monitor and check
[03:01] <usser> wodKja, windows servers?
[03:01] <wodKja> usser: yes, actually
[03:01] <Zykotic> bittin, is disabling the onboard sound in BIOS an option?
[03:01] <mib_90awkb8l> ok, so i guess i need to find the log...
[03:02] <Daremo> heh
[03:02] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  : so open a console
[03:02] <Zykotic> bittyx, is disabling the onboard sound in BIOS an option?
[03:02] <usser> wodKja, use winbind, sudo apt-get install winbind
[03:02] <cjae> what is overkill for the size of /boot?
[03:02] <wodKja> usser: ty :)
[03:02] <mib_90awkb8l> ok
[03:02] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  : and type
[03:02] <Titan8990> Daremo, and IMO this is a lot of work for a couple useful features and bragging rights :\
[03:02] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  : cd  /var/cache/apt/archives/
[03:02] <Daremo> lol
[03:02] <Daremo> its not for bragging rights!
[03:02] <bittyx> Zykotic: haven't tried it - i'll check and be back in a minute
[03:02] <usser> wodKja, and change your /etc/nsswitch.conf to use wins for hosts and networks resolution
[03:02] <Daremo> i love having dual screen
[03:02] <Daremo> hate not having it hehe
[03:02] <mib_90awkb8l> k
[03:02] <storbeck> cjae: I use +32M
[03:02] <melik> im experiencing lots of DPKG problems, i tried sudo dpkg --configure -a and its not able to fix it, what can i do? my log file > http://omploader.org/vMWJqcA
[03:02] <Daremo> i need alot of space at times ;)
[03:02] <Daremo> ie i hate switching windows
[03:02] <Daremo> hehe
[03:02] <usser> wodKja, something like hosts:          files wins mdns4_minimal dns mdns4
[03:03] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  : then do ls -lacrt
[03:03] <usser> wodKja, notice wins after files
[03:03] <cjae> storbeck: so 500 MB is nice?
[03:03] <Zykotic> Daremo, i've got dual monitors going with compiz right now...  but not ati.
[03:03] <Daremo> so to pull a monitor, can i just pullthe power or do i need to disconnect the video conn?
[03:03] <storbeck> Heh, don't know why you'd need that much, but sure.
[03:03] <mib_90awkb8l> ok
[03:03] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  : to see which names are the older and which are newer
[03:03] <Titan8990> Daremo, honestly, backup your xorg.conf first
[03:03] <Daremo> well stor, when your reading emails, checking a forum and chatting on irc/yahoo :)
[03:03] <Daremo> lol
[03:03] <Titan8990> Daremo, so atleast you know you have a working dual screen xorg
[03:04] <Daremo> wait
[03:04] <Daremo> let me show you my xorg.conf
[03:04] <storbeck> Daremo: I was talking to cjae
[03:04] <Zykotic> Daremo, try just turning it off then restarting X to see if it disables the second monitor without any xorg changes
[03:04] <Daremo> its like tiny
[03:04] <yoop> hi
[03:04] <Daremo> as in like 6 lines
[03:04] <Daremo> hang on
[03:04] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  : Because when you unistalled some files they haven't been unistalled completely and the deb files are still on your system
[03:04] <mib_90awkb8l> oh...
[03:04] <yoop> do you thinl DRI2 will be done for Jaunty ?
[03:04] <storbeck> Daremo: Try this: xrandr --output VGA --preferred --right-of LVDS
[03:05] <Daremo_01> that was weird
[03:05] <storbeck> Or whatever your monitors are
[03:05] <mib_90awkb8l> so i basically have to install all of the files i see on there that have todays date?
[03:05] <Titan8990> Daremo, ehh, I am really unfamilar with the whole "automagic xserver" thing and I have to say, I nearly despise it, I write my xorg.conf from hand using a xorg.conf.example
[03:05] <usser> yoop, not a chance
[03:05] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  : and there they should be  around
[03:05] <wodKja> usser: do i need to relog after editting the conf
[03:05] <Daremo_01> stor ill cut paste my xrandr -q and my xorg.conf in pastebin
[03:05] <usser> wodKja, no you need to restart winbind sudo /etc/init.d/winbind restart
[03:06] <mib_90awkb8l> ok, at the moment i have to go, thanks for all your help. i appreciate it.
[03:06] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  : no you should install ONLY the FILES with a date similar to the date you installed ubuntu
[03:06] <disappearedng> hey is there a device manager in ubuntu?
[03:06] <mib_90awkb8l> ok i got it
[03:06] <usser> disappearedng, lshw
[03:06] <AETE_KRAOUD> mib_90awkb8l,  : etc etc i have to go now GOOD LUCK
[03:06] <usser> disappearedng, as good as it gets
[03:06] <opera> who can tell me hot to connect a remote computer with ssh?
[03:06] <mib_90awkb8l> thank you
[03:06] <opera> how
[03:06] <wodKja> usser: anything else? :f it still doesn't want to find it
[03:07] <yoop> shit, i want to be able to use compiz + opengl on my intel chipset...
[03:07] <AETE_KRAOUD> bye!
[03:07] <usser> wodKja, can you pastebin your nsswitch.conf? can you ping your ubuntu machine from a windows machine?
[03:07] <Zykotic> yoop, compiz can run on some intel chipsets, works on my EEE
[03:07] <wodKja> usser: nevermind, thank you :) waited a minute and restarted firefox as well and its working :)
[03:07] <Daremo> ok here is my xorg and xrandr -q
[03:08] <Daremo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/125570/
[03:08] <yoop> yeah, but there's a bug when launching OPENGL stuff
[03:08] <usser> wodKja, cool
[03:08] <opera> who can help me connect a remote computer
[03:08] <_VIM_> opera: it's usually ssh <user><host>
[03:08] <ronin_> if the main drive is failing a routine check at boot (it stops at 23% and I have to reboot) what should I do?
[03:08] <MrSiebel> Can anybody help me with a grub error?
[03:09] <opera> _vim, can you tell me a user host?
[03:09] <Titan8990> opera, he meant YOUR user and YOUR host
[03:09] <aj76er> is google down?
[03:09] <_VIM_> opera so like opera@192.168.0.196 if its in your network
[03:09] <bittyx> Zykotic: hey, i've disabled the on-board sound in bios and it's cool now. thanks a million!
[03:09] <Daremo> you guys check that out?
[03:10] <Zykotic> aj76er, not for me
[03:10] <disappearedng> how do I check how much ram do I have?
[03:10] <Zykotic> bittyx, np
[03:10] <opera> OK, I will test
[03:10] <usser> disappearedng, cat /proc/meminfo
[03:10] <max_> disappearedng: $free -m
[03:10] <Zykotic> disappearedng, or "free"
[03:11] <disappearedng> thx
[03:11] <Titan8990> Daremo, see, I would say that your not even using proprietary drivers, I really need to get familar with the automatic X and how it works
[03:11] <max_> np
[03:11] <Daremo> yep
[03:11] <Daremo> i would agree
[03:11] <MrSiebel> !grub
[03:11] <ronin_> fuckit I'm going to blow away this install and try again... I'm never going to do a upgrade again!
[03:11] <max_> Daremo, do you have nvidia? I got dual monitors to work very well with it
[03:11] <Daremo> however finding out how to install them has been a hair pulling exercise :P
[03:11] <_VIM_> !language | ronin_
[03:11] <Daremo> i have an ATI 9250 pro card
[03:12] <Daremo> which i am seriously considering using for a wheel chock on my car
[03:12] <Titan8990> ronin_, clean installs are recommended
[03:12] <nickrud> Daremo, careful there, it may give you a flat
[03:12] <MrSiebel> I got a grub 21 error, does anyone know what that is?
[03:12] <max_> haha
[03:12] <usser> Daremo, with a card that old you're better off with opensource drivers, ati is known for dropping support for older cards, no new drivers no thing
[03:12] <opera> -wim, why it time out?
[03:12] <ASUSBlue> what dock should i install
[03:12] <ASUSBlue> thinking about cairo dock
[03:12] <Daremo> yea i know i cant run the flgrx driver
[03:12] <melik> im experiencing lots of DPKG problems, i tried sudo dpkg --configure -a and its not able to fix it, what can i do? my log file > http://omploader.org/vMWJqcA
[03:12] <Daremo> i have to run xrander 1.2 or something else?
[03:12] <_VIM_> opera you have to configure the ssh server's config file on the remote server
[03:13] <_VIM_> opera which is /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[03:13] <Daremo> nick i already am running on a donut spare right now.. need to get a tire tomorrow.. lol
[03:13] <max_> I got everything to work swimmingly by using nvidia-settings, there might be an equivalent for ati
[03:13] <Daremo> max what do you mean?
[03:13] <opera> _vim, i see ,thank you
[03:13] <_VIM_> :)
[03:14] <Daremo> how would i load nviadia drivers?
[03:14] <max_> Daremo, you wouldn't, I'm just wondering if ati has a similar program for achieving that
[03:14] <Daremo> also why the hell is my xorg like 12 lines?
[03:14] <max_> mine is around 100
[03:14] <Daremo> default?
[03:14] <max_> with dual monitors
[03:14] <Daremo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/125570/
[03:14] <Daremo> take a look max
[03:14] <melik> Daremo, go to system > admin > hardware drivers
[03:14] <melik> and activate them there
[03:14] <Daremo> nothing there melik
[03:14] <Alog_W> who know that dose the Komodo could format the code?
[03:14] <usser> Daremo, its all done on the fly now, you wont need xorg.conf at all in the near future
[03:14] <Daremo> already looked there
[03:14] <ronin_> So long as I'm only writing bash scripts I love linux it wasn't until I started trying to use it as a desktop that a deep hatred has set in... but now i'm stuck with it because I used software raid and don't have enough diskdrives to move back to windows
[03:14] <melik> what type of drivers do u have?
[03:14] <melik> Nvidai?
[03:15] <Daremo> usser thats what i thought i read
[03:15] <melik> do u have nvidia drivers?
[03:15] <Daremo> whats SOOO damn annoying is old info that pops up in every google search
[03:15] <max_> I'll post my xorg.conf
[03:15] <Daremo> so you have no idea whats valid and whats not
[03:15] <_VIM_> Daremo: add 2009 to the end of the search
[03:15] <melik> Daremo, do u have nvidia drivers?
[03:15] <Daremo> i got nothing for propriatary drivers
[03:16] <Daremo> just xrander/xorg
[03:16] <fearful> can anyone tell me how I can completely remove openoffice configs and all, purge is not working
[03:16] <melik> no.. what type of gfx card do u have lol
[03:16] <_VIM_> sometimes adding [SOLVED] to a google search works well too :)
[03:16] <Daremo> OOH good idea vim
[03:16] <Daremo> ill remember that
[03:16] <_VIM_> :)
[03:16] <Titan8990> fearful, if purge is not doing it, manually will be your only option
[03:16] <Zykotic> melik, Daremo has an ATI card
[03:16] <usser> Daremo, your xorg.conf is fine, and xrandr is also fine, what exactly is the problem?
[03:16] <max_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/125574/ that's my xorg.conf -- nvidia with dual monitors
[03:16] <Titan8990> fearful, also, purge will not touch your home folder
[03:16] <Daremo> well
[03:16] <Titan8990> fearful, so be sure to check for hidden files in your home folder
[03:16] <max_> I also have wacom stuff in there...
[03:17] <fearful> Titan8990, ok just delete everything with openoffice in name
[03:17] <the_sleeping_ox> hi, i installed UBUNTU in the same drive as my windows. now when i boot into ubuntu, it won't let me .. it says i have to force something... how should i go about this?
[03:17] <Daremo> when i try to enable compiz via appearance, it says desktop effects not enabled
[03:17] <fearful> Titan8990, or ooo
[03:17] <usser> Daremo, what happens if you run compiz --replace on the terminal can you pastebin the output of that
[03:17] <Daremo> heh ok
[03:17] <PuTrA_caem> inel_cute
[03:17] <Daremo> if i vanish, ill be back once i reboot
[03:17]  * usser installs compiz
[03:18] <Titan8990> fearful, yes, but I am parnoid about that kind of thing so I would back it up first
[03:18] <aliase> hi, is there anyway to put the ubuntu live cd on to a sd card and boot from it?
[03:18] <Titan8990> fearful, I back up everything before i change it
[03:18] <Titan8990> fearful, but then again, I don't use a distro that is quite as easy as ubuntu
[03:18] <max_> Daremo, ctrl+alt+backspace will redo the graphics -- no need to reboot
[03:19] <the_sleeping_ox> hi, i installed UBUNTU in the same drive as my windows. now when i boot into ubuntu, it won't let me .. it says i have to force something... how should i go about this?
[03:19] <fearful> Titan8990, this is getting really annoying seriously im clueless to what to do
[03:19] <max_> the_sleeping_ox: I think you'll have to give us more details...
[03:19] <fearful> Titan8990, terminate called after throwing an instance of 'com::sun::star::uno::RuntimeException'
[03:20] <fearful> Titan8990, only error
[03:20] <Titan8990> fearful, hehe but an unhandled exception is quite a big error
[03:20] <the_sleeping_ox> max_ : XP & ubuntu is in the same drive. when i choose to boot into ubuntu .. it won't let me... it gives me several options but I can't read them because it scrolls the whole screen up soo fast
[03:20] <Wildburn> hm, is there a way to use linux to force agp apterture if the bios doesnt support it?
[03:20] <fearful> Titan8990, heh, yea but what can cause it I have no idea >< not that experienced
[03:21] <max_> the_sleeping_ox: can you boot in the recovery mode
[03:21] <llllll> can anyone tell me how to clone my screen to my tv
[03:21] <the_sleeping_ox> hmm havn't tried that
[03:21] <the_sleeping_ox> let me do it. thankx
[03:21] <Zykotic> llllll, are you using Nvidia, ATI or other?
[03:22] <llllll> nvidia
[03:22] <llllll> 8600gt
[03:22] <melik> Daremo, sudo /usr/X11R6/bin/X --configure
[03:22] <Titan8990> fearful, what version of java jre do you have?
[03:22] <Zykotic> llllll, do you have nvidia-settings installed?
[03:22] <fearful> 1.6
[03:22] <llllll> yes
[03:23] <shavin> Guys i read this line on forums: could you explain how to do what it is telling(instaliing intrepid on pen drive)? " I recommend formating the flash drive to ResierFS (mounted with 'noatime,nodiratime,notail' options) and mount tmpfs to /tmp, /var/tmp and /var/log (like EeePC does) to increase speed and minimise writes"
[03:23] <kingtut> i am running ubuntuand windows vista on the same hard drive the
[03:23] <tony403> damn, i spent 15 minutes ranting on #quake-live about how it's for ubuntu chat when i realized #ubuntu tab wasn't highlighted. doh!
[03:23] <shavin> i want to know about the tmps
[03:23] <shavin> tmlfs*
[03:23] <Daremo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/125576/
[03:23] <Daremo> melik hang on
[03:24] <Daremo> video very slow now, disconnected 1 display to get compiz to work
[03:24] <Wildburn> Tony403: thats funny
[03:24] <max_> shavin: does /tmp have it's own partition?
[03:24] <melik> anyone able to help out with my problem? im experiencing lots of DPKG problems, i tried sudo dpkg --configure -a and its not able to fix it, what can i do? my log file > http://omploader.org/vMWJqcA
[03:25] <kingtut> the very first one the list highlight the firest one to load ubunt the last on the list is windows
[03:25] <usser> Daremo, it looks like compiz starts, no?
[03:25] <Daremo> sort of?
[03:25] <Daremo> how do i know if its running?
[03:26] <usser> Daremo, try alt+tab should give you a switch windows effect
[03:26] <llllll> ???
[03:27] <fantomas> Hi
[03:27] <Daremo> yep its running
[03:27] <fantomas> How to set CLASSPATH?
[03:27] <Daremo> goddamn system is bogged down
[03:27] <fantomas> and where
[03:27] <aliase> hi, is there anyway to put the ubuntu live cd on to a sd card and boot from it?
[03:27] <Daremo> something isnt configured right
[03:27] <Daremo> or that card just doesnt support compiz?
[03:27] <usser> Daremo, yea it uses indirect rendering
[03:27] <fantomas> so How and Where should I set classpath for a java program?
[03:27] <max_> aliase: there might be if you can find a program that writes .iso images to SD cards.
[03:27] <usser> Daremo, i ran compiz on radeon 7800 just fine
[03:28] <max_> aliase: why would you want to accomplish this?
[03:28] <usser> Daremo, beryl even not compiz
[03:28] <usser> Daremo, try lsmod | grep ati
[03:28] <Daremo> why is this so hard to do?
[03:28] <usser> Daremo, lsmod | grep fglrx
[03:28] <usser> Daremo, are you sure you're not using fglrx
[03:28] <aliase> max_: because i want to install ubuntu but have no cd rom drive or a usb stick
[03:28] <Zykotic> llllll, sorry couldn't find how to do it with Nvidia Settings?  manual xorg conf needs the 4 following lines http://paste.ubuntu.com/125578/, good luck :)
[03:28] <Daremo> i have been pulling my hair out for about 2 weeks now..  yes.. i can check if you like.. and ill run that command now
[03:29] <llllll> thank you
[03:29] <Daremo> cpufreq_conservative    16392  0
[03:29] <mchelen> are there any open source programs to do full searches of files like google desktop?
[03:29] <tvon> beagle
[03:29] <tvon> or whatever it's called now
[03:29] <max_> aliase: well the first thing I would do would be to boot in my BIOS to see if booting from the SD slot is possible. It's also possible that that falls under "removeable device."
[03:29] <aeonsablaze> or tracker
[03:29] <Daremo> and nothing when i run for fglrx
[03:30] <invasion> !fr
[03:30] <tvon> meh
[03:30] <Wildburn> hm can you put regular linux on the eeepc?
[03:30] <Daremo> so if xorg.conf is going bye bye, whats going to be the config for video?
[03:30] <usser> Daremo, how about lsmod | grep radeon
[03:31] <Daremo> radeon                159136  2
[03:31] <Daremo> drm                   110304  3 radeon
[03:31] <Daremo> rob@rob2:~$
[03:31] <Wildburn> Daremo, apparently its moving to nvidia and ati specific files
[03:31] <Zykotic> Wildburn, i'd recommend eeebuntu - it's excellent, they offer 3 different versions, including one with Netbook Remix - which is very cool...
[03:31] <aliase> max_: i think sd card are treated as ide devices, so i assume it possible to boot it. i just need a way to get the image onto the card and make it bootable
[03:31] <Daremo> so they are building drivers for the cards that arent supported by ati and nvidia?
[03:31] <mib_602r0u> hi everybody, who can I ask for a little help with networking in ubuntu... I am a new user... thank you in advance
[03:31] <usser> Daremo, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/262529
[03:31] <invasion> i going to undernet
[03:31] <usser> Daremo, looks like its you
[03:32] <Wildburn> Zykotic: yeah just looking at these eeepcs and thinking of picking up one because its a damn clever idea, just wondered if it could run real linux instead of that stupified version it comes with
[03:32] <Zykotic> mib_602r0u, just ask your question or stat your problem
[03:32] <Zykotic> Wildburn, I love my EEE, it's the 8GB model of the origional, they have much cooler models now.  but it's awsome.
[03:32] <Wildburn> Daremo: I dont believe anything not made by Nvidia or ATI will be able to run new versions of ubuntu
[03:32] <max_> aliase: if you've googled for a program for doing this and found nothing, then the next and last thing I would try would be to mount the .iso file and drag all the files over to the SD card, erasing the SD card beforehand.
[03:32] <Daremo> huh how is that me?
[03:33] <mib_602r0u> I was playing around with the Package Manager and removed network-manager and network-manager-gnome... now I cannot connect to the network and therefore cannot download them and install them back...
[03:33] <storbeck> Wildburn: What makes you think that?
[03:33] <Wildburn> Zykotic: yeah they look neat and im about to see if this tc1000 makes a good frisbee after all this video trouble
[03:33] <usser> Daremo, same exact error
[03:33] <aliase> max_: ok, ill try that thanks
[03:33] <bananagun> cd ..
[03:33] <bananagun> oops
[03:33] <usser> Daremo, the root of the problem is the same
[03:33] <max_> aliase: alright, good luck
[03:33] <Daremo> from ld2randr?
[03:33] <Daremo> 1/9/09
[03:33] <royzhu> Zykotic: awsome? mean awesome or other
[03:34] <Daremo> oops
[03:34] <Zykotic> Wildburn, LOL i use to work supporting the tc1000 when it first came out
[03:34] <usser> Daremo, try removing Virtual 2880 1024 from your xorg.conf restart xorg and run compiz again
[03:34] <Daremo> 9/15/20078
[03:34] <Zykotic> royzhu, awsome YMMV
[03:34] <Daremo> but but but i want to run dual screen hehe
[03:34] <Daremo> also how does one re-start xorg without rebooting
[03:34] <royzhu> Zykotic: O_O! Oh.
[03:34] <storbeck> Daremo: ctrl alt backspace
[03:34] <ibuclaw> Daremo: ctrl+alt+backspace
[03:35] <Daremo> thanks
[03:35] <usser> Daremo, ctrl+alt+backspace, tough luck dual screen+compiz doesnt seem to be supported by your card
[03:35] <ibuclaw> or `sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart`
[03:35] <tech0007> Daremo: ctrl-alt-f1 then login, sudo /etc/init/gdm stop
[03:35] <usser> Daremo, not by your card, by oss driver, its not card's fault really
[03:35] <Daremo> alright, so if i was going to put together a new system, what video card would people recommedn?
[03:36]  * Daremo grumbles
[03:36] <usser> Daremo, nvidia
[03:36] <max_> nvidia
[03:36] <Wildburn> storbeck:yeah I guess the Matrox still makes cards but most of the older cards pre ATI/Nvidia you wouldnt have in a system that has the requirements to run 9.04
[03:36] <Daremo> nvidia what?
[03:36] <ibuclaw> but not the Nvidia 8000 series :)
[03:36] <usser> Daremo, nvidia any
[03:36] <Daremo> also how do i turn off compiz
[03:36] <Wildburn> lol
[03:36] <usser> ibuclaw, why not
[03:36] <usser> Daremo, metacity --replace
[03:36] <Daremo> apperance?
[03:36] <ibuclaw> 84xx has bad bumps
[03:36] <Wildburn> sudo apt-get remove compiz-core
[03:36] <ibuclaw> overheats
[03:36] <max_> turn settings in appearance to none
[03:36] <Daremo> id like to beat someone at ATI
[03:37] <Daremo> i just got this card about 12 months ago
[03:37] <storbeck> !ot
[03:37] <Wildburn> Daremo, Ive spent the last week trying to get an old nvidia card going, so its not just one company
[03:37] <usser> Daremo, please do
[03:37] <Daremo> jerks for selling something without support
[03:37] <Daremo> if you dont want to support it, then pull the GD thing
[03:37] <storbeck> Daremo: join #ubuntu-offtopic for non-support related questions.
[03:38] <bananagun> Kind souls: I'm having a problem with GRUB. I have 2 hd's in a RAID as sda and sdb, and a main hd as hdc. XP is installed in sdc1, and I created a linux primary and swap as sdc2 and sdc5, respectively. GRUB did not install correctly the first time, it just booted into XP. I booted from the livecd and installed GRUB from a script (http://www.tux.org/pub/people/kent-robotti/looplinux/)...
[03:38] <ibuclaw> usser: though, I can vouch that the 8500GT is a pretty awesome card for desktops, for high-end business use, at least (the GS series overheats like hell)
[03:38] <usser> Daremo, they dont want to support their top-of-the-line cards too
[03:38] <storbeck> ibuclaw and usser: join #ubuntu-offtopic for non-support related questions.

[03:39] <ibuclaw> cornballer: try asking your question
[03:39] <Wildburn> lol usser thats exactly what I was thinking
[03:39] <dreamof3d> emachine?
[03:39] <usser> hehe
[03:39] <mib_602r0u> I was playing around with the Package Manager and removed network-manager and network-manager-gnome... now I cannot connect to the network and therefore cannot download them and install them back... could anyone point me on how to fix this please?
[03:39] <ibuclaw> EeePC?
[03:39] <cornballer> that is the problem!
[03:39] <Bakefy> I am using gparted having some trouble creating a partition larger than 750 GB
[03:40] <Titan8990> cornballer, you must have patience to really learn
[03:40] <ibuclaw> cornballer: what is the problem?
[03:40] <usser> mib_602r0u, set your interface manually and apt-get install network-manager network-manager-gnome
[03:40] <aeonsablaze> you should reinstall them from your cd
[03:40] <Bakefy> I would like to make a (close to) 3 TB partition
[03:40] <max_> mib_602r0u: find the .deb on the internet and install it using that. You'll need another computer to get them, but I assume you have that since you're on this channel
[03:40] <storbeck> mib_602r0u: What kind of interface do you have?
[03:40] <usser> mib_602r0u, something like this http://pastebin.com/f4fc3b4ca
[03:40] <_VIM_> max_: has a point
[03:40] <Titan8990> cornballer, we will try to help but linux is not what I would consider to be a "instant-gratification" OS
[03:40] <mib_602r0u> gnome
[03:41] <dreamof3d> anyone out there using ZEVENOS(Ubuntu)?
[03:41] <storbeck> mib_602r0u: I mean, what kind of network interface. eth0, eth1, ath0, wifi0, etc
[03:41] <ibuclaw> mib_602r0u: you can try adding your Ubuntu CD as a repository
[03:41] <Titan8990> cornballer, you spend more time setting up and configuring, but have a better end-user experience in the end
[03:41] <Titan8990> cornballer, so what is the issue?
[03:41] <ibuclaw> sudo apt-cdrom add
[03:41] <Bakefy> Is there any reason I can't create a partition larger than 750 GB with gparted?
[03:41] <aheckler> hey all, i need some help getting Vista's fonts to display correctly on my system, as it is now, they look all wonky
[03:42] <mib_602r0u> storbeck I have no idea, but I will try the CD and the link you guys gave me. thanks for all the help you all. appreciate it
[03:42] <storbeck> !fonts | aheckler
[03:42] <max_> Bakefy: wow, that's interesting. You might try fdisk, didn't hear of that having a limit
[03:42] <bananagun> Kind souls, please help... my full question is too long to write out in IRC so I wrote it in a pastebin at http://pastebin.com/m681eb9b0
[03:43] <Titan8990> Bakefy, not sure, gparted is just a front-end for parted, as suggested, I would use fdisk
[03:43] <Bakefy> thanks max_
[03:43] <Bakefy> Thanks Titan8990
[03:43] <leftyfb> where can I go to find the changes in the latest kernel/headers/restricted modules ?
[03:43] <usser> bananagun, first off you cant mount entire hdd, it has to be a partition /dev/sdc1 for example
[03:43] <aheckler> storbeck: i saw that earlier, but i dont think it has special instructions for vista fonts
[03:44] <Titan8990> Bakefy, but fdisk only creates partitions, does not format like gparted, to format you will want to do:   mke2fs -j /dev/sdxx
[03:44] <storbeck> Bakefy: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/fdisk-unable-to-create-partition-greater-2tb.html
[03:44] <Titan8990> Bakefy, for ext3
[03:44] <bananagun> usser: oh okay, I'll try that and get back to you
[03:44] <Bakefy> all of you rock, thanks for pointing me in the right direction
[03:45] <Titan8990> just curious, does anyone know why the floodbot adds exempt to all mibbit users?
[03:45] <storbeck> aheckler: Vista fonts are proprietary, so they are not going to be perfect.
[03:45] <ibuclaw> Titan8990: mibbit is an untrusted client ?
[03:45] <ibuclaw> idk
[03:46] <_VIM_> Titan8990: Ive been here 2 years (with various nicks) and I've never figured that one out yet
[03:46] <cremmora> ohh hell i couldent stay away  ... im back
[03:46]  * cremmora slaps sebsebseb around a bit with a large trout
[03:46] <usser> bananagun, also including the error message that grub gives can be a great help
[03:46] <Titan8990> _VIM_, I know all about the "various nicks" hehe
[03:46] <_VIM_> lmao!
[03:46] <eseven73> boo :P
[03:47] <kriscolt> !samba
[03:47] <ibuclaw> Titan8990: it's probably best to ask one of the developers who implemented that feature into Floodbot, or read the comments in the code. Your answer may be there ;)
[03:48] <kriscolt> irssi is this shit!
[03:48] <ibuclaw> !ohmy | kriscolt
[03:48] <kriscolt> sorry...
[03:48] <Titan8990> ibuclaw, I wouldn't mind looking at the code, do you know what application is typically impletmented my floodbots?
[03:48] <bananagun> usser: I made some changes from a forum. I'll be right back to let you know if it worked. Thanks for your help so far :)
[03:48] <ibuclaw> kriscolt: haha
[03:48] <kriscolt> just gettin a kick out of my toys
[03:49] <_VIM_> kriscolt: have you ever done /lastlog <search word goes here> ?
[03:49] <kriscolt> nope
[03:49] <_VIM_> neat stuff :)
[03:49] <kriscolt> what's it do
[03:49] <kriscolt> in the term or in here?
[03:49] <_VIM_> try it
[03:49] <_VIM_> here
[03:49] <ibuclaw> _VIM_: I'm guessing it greps the logs
[03:49] <cremmora> ubuntu sucks its for humans not pcs....lol
[03:50] <ibuclaw> cremmora: o.O
[03:50] <_VIM_> ibuclaw: correct
[03:50] <cremmora> lol
[03:50] <RoastedTiresX> I got a printing problem. I just "unpublished" a printer in the CUPS menu and now I can't get to it... it says failed to connect in my browser
[03:50] <kriscolt> nice
[03:50] <RoastedTiresX> any ideas??
[03:50] <Titan8990> _VIM_, don't you need the OTR plugin for that?
[03:50] <kriscolt> that'll come in handy
[03:50] <_VIM_> nope
[03:50] <kriscolt> as long as i don't get dropped from the server
[03:51] <_VIM_> kriscolt:  no one else can see it but you
[03:51] <kriscolt> i see that
[03:51] <_VIM_> oh you meant bad connection?
[03:51] <Titan8990> RoastedTiresX, fails to connect to cups?
[03:51] <kriscolt> exactly
[03:51] <_VIM_> ah
[03:51] <JosephLinkous> Anyone have any experience with BOOST? I've never used it before, but want to start
[03:51] <kriscolt> being that i'm not in a gui, how do i turn off the notification when people join and leave the chan?
[03:52] <RoastedTiresX> titan - yeah... I had CUPS (localhost:631) saved in my favorites. Now when I go to it, it fails.
[03:52] <max_> lol, kris is hardcore
[03:52] <_VIM_> kriscolt: type /help ignore
[03:52] <RoastedTiresX> I can get to the MAIN CUPS menu, but once I hti "printers" it says failed to connect
[03:52] <Titan8990> RoastedTiresX, sudo /etc/init.d/cupsd restart
[03:52] <_VIM_> I *think* it's /ignore -joins -parts -quits
[03:52] <_VIM_> or something like that
[03:52] <cremmora> i really like ccsm in ubuntu
[03:52] <RoastedTiresX> Titan - I owe ya a beer.
[03:52] <RoastedTiresX> Thanks sir!
[03:52] <ibuclaw> cremmora: you might like ubuntu-tweak
[03:53] <cremmora> really
[03:53] <Titan8990> RoastedTiresX, hehe, I am guessing it worked?
[03:53] <RoastedTiresX> Titan - I can at least access my CUPS menu now. I still can't get network printing to work. :( These guides are so simplea nd straightforward yet I still get access denied on my xP laptop.
[03:53] <kriscolt> grrr...
[03:53] <JosephLinkous> Also, does anyone have a preference with a SSH-capable compiler to use for C++ development? Standard VI's a pain, especially when I push up and down to traverse my code, then accidently put a whole bunch of A's and B's everywhere
[03:53] <cremmora> i 4 time boot my atom board and it boots well  windowsxp win vista 64 (for lerning)  ubuntu & osx
[03:54] <brunner> Is there a way I can monitor my CPU temperature?
[03:54] <kriscolt> i'm gonna have to actually go somewhere and read...
[03:54] <cremmora> i may try that
[03:54] <fearful> does anyone know that if upgrade from kubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 will it update kde?
[03:54] <cremmora> cpuid.com
[03:54] <cremmora> get hwmonitor
[03:54] <kriscolt> do i need to include the hyphen in front of join?
[03:54] <Titan8990> RoastedTiresX, honestly, instead of spending a lot of time getting windows and linux to work well together, I just put linux on all my PCs so what you are trying to do is a bit out of expertise
[03:54] <cremmora> ohh wait thats windows
[03:54] <cremmora> lol
[03:54] <Titan8990> cremmora, ....
[03:54] <cremmora> try runing it in wine
[03:55] <ibuclaw> cremmora: http://ubuntu-tweak.com/about
[03:55] <Titan8990> cremmora, don't suggest that....
[03:55] <Wildburn> NVIDIA is evil
[03:55] <Zykotic> JosephLinkous, to fix the vi A's B's simply "sudo apt-get install vim" learned that here yesterday, has been driving me nuts forever
[03:55] <cremmora> so is ati
[03:55] <RoastedTiresX> Titan - That's out of the question here. I work at a school district and sometimes I bring district laptops home to get caught up on work. If I do, I need a printer, so I was trying to just hook up to this one real quick... So I basically need Linux to host a printer to XP... somehow...........
[03:55] <Titan8990> Wildburn, no ATI is evil....
[03:55] <cremmora> lol
[03:55] <cremmora> ati = satan
[03:55] <cremmora> lol\
[03:55] <Wildburn> Titan8990: ok, NVIDIA's legacy linux drivers are evil
[03:55] <Titan8990> Wildburn, hehe
[03:56] <heffay> hey everyone, im trying to set up samba and i keep getting an error "homes cannot be mounted" when my client tries to login
[03:56] <Titan8990> RoastedTiresX, honestly, when I ran into the situation I always printed to a pdf to my thumb drive
[03:56] <JosephLinkous> Zykotic: Well crap, that's a 25MB program, lol. Is it really that feature rich?
[03:56] <redvamp128> Wildburn:  For me they are working like a charm (96 drivers) 8.04 with a GF4 MX4000
[03:56] <_VIM_> the Nvidia 173 works great for nvidia 5200 cards (in Ubuntu 8.10)
[03:56] <Zykotic> JosephLinkous, all I have to say is the arrow keys work, beyond that I have no idea how it's different???
[03:56] <cremmora> your luckey you get that far with smb
[03:56] <Wildburn> lucky you redvamp, Ive spent the last 4 days trying to get them running on this geforce2 go, and all I ever get is a black screen
[03:57] <heffay> i added the line valid users = user to [homes] and made it browsable
[03:57] <redvamp128> Wildburn:  that is the Mobile one?
[03:57] <[Tequila]> Can someone help please? install ing ubuntu 8.10 server edition on a PPC I am using an iso disc and I have to to the part where it detects your CDROM however it says it cannot detect it. Well Im installing through the cd so obviously its working
[03:57] <Wildburn> yeah redvamp
[03:58]  * cremmora slaps Titan8990 around a bit with a large trout
[03:58]  * cremmora slaps Wildburn around a bit with a large trout
[03:58]  * max_ wonders where that large trout came from
[03:58] <_VIM_> !ot
[03:58]  * Wildburn asks the trout, how do I make these damn video drivers work
[03:58] <Titan8990> lol
[03:59] <cremmora> hhaha
[03:59] <kriscolt> hmmm.
[03:59] <kriscolt> i think i got it
[03:59] <cremmora> damm funny
[03:59] <kriscolt> someone leave... lemme see if this works
[03:59] <heffay> could i install swat on my client box and configure samba on the server that way?
[03:59] <kriscolt> then come back in
[03:59] <heffay> anyone?
[03:59] <cremmora> throw it out and go all text mode
[03:59] <cremmora> lol
[03:59] <[Tequila]> Can someone help please? install ing ubuntu 8.10 server edition on a PPC I am using an iso disc and I have to to the part where it detects your CDROM however it says it cannot detect it.
[03:59] <_VIM_> kriscolt: did you just see noogie enter?
[03:59] <kriscolt> nope
[04:00] <kriscolt> SWEET!
[04:00] <_VIM_> must be working :)
[04:00] <kriscolt> now i just need to remember how i did it
[04:00] <redvamp128> Wildburn:  on the nvidia site they say for one style Go cards the 96 series and for the other style the 71drivers
[04:00] <_VIM_> isnt it like /ignore -QUITS -PARTS -JOINS?
[04:00] <kriscolt> i think it's /ignore #channel JOINS
[04:00] <Wildburn> yeah red, ive tried both, no dinero
[04:00] <kriscolt> u gotta put the #ubuntu in there
[04:00] <_VIM_> kris yeah i forgot the channel name
[04:00] <_VIM_> right
[04:00] <JosephLinkous> Alright, I have a slightly difficult question that might be more of a self-discipline thing than anything: in the future, I'm likely to have lots of programs installed on here that I'd never use again, both from repositories and from source. What's the easiest way of getting rid of them? There are two problems I can see: one is what can I do with source-built, since they won't be in Aptitude as uninstallable, and second is that si
[04:00] <_VIM_> it's been awhile since ive used irssi
[04:00] <Wildburn> hey anyone, how do you remove all the nvidia crap after you do the whole sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux bla bla bla
[04:00] <kriscolt> i'm diggin it
[04:01] <zombine> JosephLinkous: that si...?
[04:01] <kriscolt> i'm still in gnome though
[04:01] <kriscolt> i should try it in a vt
[04:01] <Wildburn> redvamp: the second I add Driver "nvidia" to xorg.conf I get a blank screen, no matter which one I use
[04:01] <usser> JosephLinkous, always keep the sources for the programs you installed, /usr/src is a good place
[04:01] <kriscolt> who was trying to go 8.10 on a PPC
[04:01] <cremmora> hey you guys are allright
[04:01] <Bakefy> thanks again everyone that helped.
[04:01] <usser> JosephLinkous, that way you can always do sudo make uninstall
[04:01] <kriscolt> i don't think it works
[04:01] <kriscolt> i'm running on a PPC
[04:01] <zombine> Anyone know how to rename a partition from the terminal?
[04:01] <kriscolt> i had to stick with hardy
[04:01] <Bakefy> I fixed my 3 TB partition
[04:02] <ibuclaw> JosephLinkous: for source-built applications, you can create deb packages out of them. or use the application 'checkinstall'
[04:02] <JosephLinkous> usser: I didn't even think about that being a possibility... although it's obvious now, lol.
[04:02] <Zykotic> zombine, e2label
[04:02] <Titan8990> JosephLinkous, source built applications will typically need to be manually uninstalled, which is why they are not recommended
[04:02] <max_> Bakefy: good job :)
[04:02] <kriscolt> haha! i can do that lastlog thing for ppc
[04:02] <Titan8990> JosephLinkous, unless you make a .deb out of the them like ibuclaw mentioned
[04:02] <kriscolt> it was Tequila
[04:02] <redvamp128> Wildburn:  though finding it was hard on the nvidia site -- it either was a link for go series7 or was also under 2mx and 2gts which listed the go 2
[04:03] <JosephLinkous> Titan8990: It seems like I'm always needing stuff which isn't in the repositories (as far as I can tell), and I'm always stuck with source-built
[04:03] <_VIM_> kriscolt: yeah that's one feature I miss
[04:03] <kriscolt> u no gotz?
[04:03] <_VIM_> I took it out, started using Konversation , i love it
[04:03] <kriscolt> meh... :) :)
[04:03] <Titan8990> JosephLinkous, example?
[04:03] <mediadragon> Where is my X Configuration File located?
[04:03] <kriscolt> is it X driven?
[04:04] <nomasteryoda> /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:04] <mediadragon> Thanks!
[04:04] <zombine> Zykotic: I guess I should have mentioned that it was FAT32
[04:04] <nomasteryoda> np
[04:04] <kriscolt> or shell?
[04:04] <JosephLinkous> Titan8990: For instance, I'm looking for the ability to compile code for embedded applications, and the .deb links are broken. The only things available are the source files
[04:04] <ibuclaw> JosephLinkous: what I tend to do is add the latest testing release to my sources list, and pin it at a very low number so no binary packages are upgraded. Then pull the sources and run 'dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot'
[04:04] <_VIM_> konversation is  X yeah.
[04:04] <Wildburn> redvamp: you mean the 71 drivers?
[04:04] <cremmora> damm
[04:04] <max_> JosephLinkous: if you still have the tarball for the source code, uninstalling is quite easy
[04:04] <JosephLinkous> ibuclaw: I have no idea what you just said.
[04:04] <cremmora> i havent used irc for years
[04:04] <kriscolt> will it work with gnome, or does it require the k dependencies?
[04:04] <moddey_dhoo> Hey, I've been having an extremely weird problem and I can't figure out how to solve it for the life of me.
[04:04] <setuid> How can I set my CONFIG_HZ to 1000 without rebuilding the kernel?
[04:05] <bananagun> usser: Ok I got "mount /dev/sdc2 /mnt" to work, and I edited my /boot/grub/menu.lst to successfully boot XP. however, when trying to boot linux I get the error "/dev/sdc2 does not exist"... my menu.lst is at http://pastebin.com/m7dc55264 ...can you take a look for me?
[04:05] <_VIM_> works with gnome kriscolt
[04:05] <setuid> It's 250 by default in Ubuntu kernels
[04:05] <kriscolt> i'll check it out
[04:05] <kriscolt> brb
[04:05] <Wildburn> is there a way to enable verbose output during boot time?
[04:05] <Titan8990> bananagun, it is bad practice to mount things to /mnt
[04:05] <heffay> can someone help me trouble shoot my samba config?
[04:05] <setuid> Wildburn, nosplash
[04:05] <RenatoSilva> does Ubuntu use lenny?
[04:05] <Wildburn> thanks Setuid
[04:05] <ibuclaw> JosephLinkous: ie: gnome-format is in the Jaunty repos ... I download the sourcecode in the ubuntu repository and compile it on Hardy
[04:05] <redvamp128> Wildburn:  depending on which go series I choose -- it either told me the glx-71 and also glx-91
[04:05] <_VIM_> kriscolt: oh im not sure if it requires dependencies though
[04:05] <JosephLinkous> I'm starting to think my questions are more common that I originally thought, haha
[04:05] <kriscolt> konversation... 9 additional libs...
[04:05] <_VIM_> ah
[04:06] <bananagun> Titan8990: what should I mount it to in this case? please explain :)
[04:06] <daparent> This is likely a dumb question but I'm fairly new to bzr.  If I want to backup the repository do I just back up from the top level directory?  Is revision history and what not stored in the dot files/folders?
[04:06] <heffay> RenatoSilva, lenny is debian
[04:06] <redvamp128> Wildburn:  correction 96 drivers
[04:06] <kriscolt> for a vim fan i figured u'd be all over irssi
[04:06] <_VIM_> i was
[04:06] <_VIM_> for a long time
[04:06] <RenatoSilva> heffay: I thought it was an apple
[04:06] <Titan8990> bananagun, /mnt/anotherdirectoryhere
[04:06] <bananagun> Titan8990: ah, okay, thanks!
[04:06] <Titan8990> bananagun, or /media/anotherdirectoryhere
[04:06] <Titan8990> bananagun, np
[04:06] <kriscolt> vim drove me nuts... i had to use it to set up my geexbox...
[04:06] <ibuclaw> JosephLinkous: 'dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot' is a debian command to build deb packages :)
[04:06] <max_> vim is amazing
[04:06] <kriscolt> i had no idea where my cursor was
[04:06] <kriscolt> ever
[04:06] <ibuclaw> max_++
[04:06] <kriscolt> actually it may have been vi
[04:06] <RenatoSilva> heffay: is Ubuntu based on lenny? better now?
[04:07] <aeonsablaze> i've always preferred nano to vim
[04:07] <redvamp128> Wildburn:  and from looking on the nvidia architecture chart-- I think that is determined by the amount of memory that the bios can use (some are 128 while others are 512) for the go series
[04:07] <bananagun> emacs...
[04:07] <RenatoSilva> is Ubuntu based on debian lenny?
[04:07] <max_> yes
[04:07] <kriscolt> what about joe?
[04:07] <_VIM_> vim is sweet , with all the extras,,, im not too crazy about straight vi...
[04:07] <heffay> RenatoSilva, ubuntu is based on debian and lenny is a version of debian
[04:07] <max_> right
[04:07] <usser> bananagun, you sure you have the right initrd file
[04:07] <Titan8990> RenatoSilva, ubuntu releases are always based on the debian release canditidate
[04:07] <JosephLinkous> ibuclaw: Oh nice. What's the difference between a .deb and make install? Everything in one convenient file instead of a whole folder of crap, or what?
[04:07] <RenatoSilva> heffay: really?
[04:07] <kriscolt> mother F'er! new mexico state lost!
[04:07] <Titan8990> RenatoSilva, not the current debian release
[04:07] <kriscolt> (sorry nonrelated)
[04:07] <usser> bananagun, line 22
[04:08] <redvamp128> Wildburn:  then according to the same one there were 2 oem version that had 64bit
[04:08] <ibuclaw> JosephLinkous: with a deb, you can uninstall it via aptitude/apt-get/synaptic
[04:08] <RenatoSilva> heffay: look at Titan8990 answering
[04:08] <_VIM_> you got a potty mouth kriscolt O.o :P
[04:08] <bananagun> usser: no, but I do see an initrd.img.. I'll change it to that. Is that the only thing you see wrong?
[04:08] <RenatoSilva> Titan8990: thanks!
[04:08] <heffay> RenatoSilva, youre the one asking the questions
[04:08] <kriscolt> too much coffee... not enough food
[04:08] <setuid> Anyone know?
[04:08] <usser> bananagun, you see something like that in /boot initrd.img-2.6.28-8-generic?
[04:09] <JosephLinkous> ibuclaw: Oh, so if you got it straight from the net and installed from .deb, it would register itself with aptitude in the installed apps section for easy removal, or what?
[04:09] <mediadragon> I screwed up and installed a new driver for my nvidia built in.
[04:09] <RenatoSilva> Titan8990: so now it's time for a new debian from which to be based....
[04:09] <heffay> sigh
[04:10] <mediadragon> How do I get it back to the correct driver?
[04:10] <usser> bananagun, but yea seems fine
[04:10] <RenatoSilva> Titan8990: do you think 9.04 will already be based on debian 6.0?
[04:10] <ibuclaw> JosephLinkous: yes, that is how the debian package management system works. it's there so you have full control and knowledge of what is on your machine :)
[04:10] <usser> bananagun, might also try root=UUID=UUID of your linux partition
[04:10] <kriscolt> there was a reason i came in here...
[04:10] <usser> bananagun, use blkid on the live cd to find out what it is
[04:10] <kriscolt> ...?
[04:10] <Wildburn> hm anyone know a command to get your screen data?
[04:11] <bananagun> usser: yes, it is initrd.img-2.6.27-7-generic my bad. I'll try blkid now
[04:11] <RenatoSilva> will 9.04 will be based on debian 6.0?
[04:11] <mediadragon> Couldn't set 800x600x0 video mode: Couldn't find matching GLX visual
[04:11] <mediadragon> I get that when trying to start Boswars.
[04:11] <kriscolt> !samba
[04:11] <max_> Wildburn: are you talking about the utility "screen"
[04:11] <usser> bananagun, also kernel vmlinuz-2.6.28-8-generic or something similar
[04:11] <JosephLinkous> ibuclaw: Freakin sweet. I'll have to paste that command to a file for future reference
[04:11] <bananagun> usser: blkid returns: /dev/sdc2: UUID="cd37fc3c-6802-4036-a139-cc4c1308cc63" TYPE="ext3"
[04:12] <Wildburn> max_: not sure, was getting black screen before so instead of booting 2.24.27-12 or whatever I booted the -7 kernel and then It gives me low res, no configuration, so I look at Xorg.0.log and it says no screens configured properly
[04:12] <usser> bananagun, yep so root=UUID=cd37fc3c-6802-4036-a139-cc4c1308cc63 in the kernel line
[04:12] <RenatoSilva> .
[04:12] <Titan8990> RenatoSilva, unsure
[04:13] <moddey_dhoo> So my question is this: Does anyone have any idea why my programs act funny after closing rhythmbox, firefox, ubuntu's default pdf reader, etc? I can't open Firefox now, I can't click the button to bring up restart/shutdown, I can't open gedit, so I'm pretty much stuck with whatever programs I have open.
[04:13] <Titan8990> RenatoSilva, if debian 6.0 is already in development, I would say maybe
[04:13] <max_> Wildburn: oh, I was talking about somethign else. What data do you want specifically?
[04:13] <Titan8990> RenatoSilva, although I doubt that it is since 5.0 was just released
[04:13] <thesleepingox> this happens when i tried sudo istall xserver-xgl
[04:13] <JosephLinkous> Anyone have a link to a 'best practices' page for Linux/Ubuntu?
[04:13] <thesleepingox> Package xserver-xgl is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[04:13] <thesleepingox> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[04:13] <thesleepingox> is only available from another source
[04:13] <Wildburn> max_:id assume things like refresh, pci location and so on
[04:14] <suma> hai
[04:14] <max_> Wildburn: sorry, I'm not following at all ><. Maybe I should let someone else take a stab
[04:14] <thesleepingox> how do i get the xerver-??
[04:14] <Wildburn> max_:basically the items related to screen that go in xorg.conf
[04:15] <bananagun> usser: just to make sure, the whole line would be "kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27-7-generic root=UUID=cd37fc3c-6802-4036-a139-cc4c1308cc63 ro vga=normal"?
[04:15] <max_> Wildburn: you want to see yours or you want the right ones to put in xorg.conf?
[04:15] <Wildburn> both
[04:15] <Wildburn> I need to see the data for my screen so I can put it in xorg.conf there isnt anything in there for screen right now
[04:15] <max_> well, xorg.conf is just a text file, so open it up with your favorite text editor to see that
[04:15] <usser> bananagun, yes as long as you're sure about those names and UUID
[04:16] <kriscolt> !mount
[04:16] <Wildburn> max_:yeah Ive got it open, nothing listed for screen but id="configured display device"
[04:16] <RenatoSilva> Titan8990: debian has three stages of development: stable, testing and unstable
[04:17] <victoria> hi, anyone using xubuntu? xfce?
[04:17] <RenatoSilva> Titan8990: debian 6 (Squeeze) came out from unstable to testing because 5.0 came out to stable
[04:17] <bananagun> usser: Ok I'll be back in a minute to let you know how it went :) thanks again for your help!
[04:17] <max_> Wildburn: yeah...there probably should be quite a bit more to that. Want to have a look at my whole xorg.conf and see the patterns?
[04:17] <FlynDice_> Could someone point me in the right direction.  My Standard Microsystems Corp. 9-in-2 Card Reader won't mount my sd cards anymore.  Other USB drives and devicesseem to work fine though.
[04:17] <Titan8990> RenatoSilva, then I would say, most likely, but could not say for sure
[04:18] <RenatoSilva> Titan8990: ok thanks
[04:18] <Wildburn> max_:actually running nvidia-xconfig has given me a few items, still seem to be missing the pci address though
[04:18] <JosephLinkous> Alright, one final question, though I'm sure you guys will gasp. I want to open my server to the public.
[04:18] <Titan8990> RenatoSilva, basically, if you want more bleeding edge, ubuntu is the choice, if you want more stability, get debian.....
[04:18] <RenatoSilva> Titan8990: I already use ubuntu
[04:18] <JosephLinkous> What kinds of things would I need to keep in mind to keep things secure?
[04:18] <max_> Wildburn: yeah, that's a great app. Why do you need that address?
[04:19] <Wildburn> max_:assume I do since Xorg.0.log says it cant find a display
[04:19] <max_> JosephLinkous: definitely learn how to use iptables
[04:19] <JosephLinkous> I have nothing mission critical on here, I just want to see people come on and fk around all they want, yet the server stays running normally
[04:20] <_VIM_> JosephLinkous: that's where Virtualization comes in
[04:20] <mediadragon> Couldn't set 800x600x0 video mode: Couldn't find matching GLX visual
[04:20] <victoria> hello.. i wonder how can i change my font color.. from black to pink..:)... IM USING XUBUNTU
[04:20] <JosephLinkous> Is my request odd?
[04:20] <max_> Wildburn: well, you might be able to find what you want with $lspci
[04:21] <Wildburn> yeah, ill give it a whack, didnt see it when I tried it earlier
[04:21] <_VIM_> JosephLinkous: donno about "odd" really, it sounded liked a decent question to me.
[04:21] <max_> Wildburn: I wouldn't run after that information for too long :P. I think you just need to tweak your xorg.conf to be what it should.
[04:21] <julio_> hi, do you know how to get the modifiable kernel variables?
[04:22] <nickrud> JosephLinkous, no, but you'd need to be aware of the possibility of bot attacks from there, or other malicious users. Your best security is knowing who's allowed in
[04:22] <joaquinz> hi!
[04:22] <JosephLinkous> _VIM_: I dont know, I just wanna see people connect to my server, and see what kinds of things people are up to
[04:22] <joaquinz> i've a lot of trouble with kubuntu and my sound card
[04:22] <joaquinz>  it simply doesnt work
[04:22] <joaquinz> i mean, everything seams to be fine, but when i play sound with amarok, mp3blaster or another, it just doesnt play any sound
[04:22] <joaquinz> any ideas what it could be?
[04:23] <nickrud> JosephLinkous, you might bring it up on #ubuntu-offtopic, you'll probably be able to get an earful
[04:23] <Nubbie> joaquinz: it would help if you gave more information... ie. what version of ubuntu, what hardware you're running... etc.
[04:23] <_VIM_> JosephLinkous: yeah thats why no ones answering, its kind of offtopic as nickrud pointed out :)
[04:23] <JosephLinkous> Hmm
[04:23] <JosephLinkous> Thanks
[04:23] <joaquinz> yeah, i was just waiting to someone answer me hehe.. im using sound blaster audigy (ca106)
[04:23] <joaquinz> and ubuntu 9.04 jaunty alpha 4
[04:24] <joaquinz> its getting me crazy, kmix and alsamixer are ok, and amarok seams to play the songs without any trouble, but in fact it doesnt because i cant hear anything
[04:24] <Nubbie> joaquinz: well... your audio may not be working because jaunty is still in testing
[04:24] <Titan8990> !jaunty | joaquinz
[04:25] <Titan8990> joaquinz, wrong channel
[04:25] <mezy_> ok
[04:25] <joaquinz> ouch
[04:25] <mezy_> what arre the limitations of persistence?
[04:25] <mezy_> on*
[04:25] <joaquinz> another questio then... is it possible to install an older version of the kernel ?
[04:25] <joaquinz> maybe installing 2.27 resolve the problem
[04:25] <max_> mezy_: brick walls
[04:25] <Titan8990> joaquinz, yes, install ubuntu 8.10
[04:26] <mezy_> Max, as in....?
[04:26] <nickrud> joaquinz, lol, Titan8990 is right if you want help here. #ubuntu+1 knows about jaunty,, we don't
[04:26] <kematzy> hallo  I'm trying to incorporate Ubuntu 8.10 on a Windows XP network, but no success. Anyone here got time to explain how it should work, and maybe help find out what's wrong?
[04:26] <kriscolt2> irssi does work in a vt...
[04:26] <max_> mezy_: I'm being metaphorical and offtopic :x *shuts up*
[04:26] <kriscolt2> but the vt doesn't work with synergy
[04:27] <mezy_> max: thanks anyway
[04:27] <redvamp128> !samba | kematzy
[04:27] <cyrus_mc> on 8.10 what groups does a user need to be part of to use the audio device? I would think audio but there is a default user on my system that doesn't have group audio and has no trouble playing sounds
[04:28] <nickrud> cyrus_mc,  adm dialout cdrom video plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare are the usual ones for an admin user. ubuntu is working on phasing out using groups as device permissions
[04:29] <nickrud> cyrus_mc, really broken grammar there, but I think you get the idea
[04:30] <cellofellow> when I plug in a particular hard drive it does not mount, it does show in lsusb, and I get this in dmesg: usb 2-1: can't set config #1, error -71
[04:30] <cellofellow> other thumbdrives work great.
[04:30] <kematzy> ubottu: is Samba not installed by default in 8.10 already ??  What does the "Windows Network" icon do then ?  Confused as hell.
[04:31] <ibuclaw> lol kematzy :)
[04:31] <usser> kematzy, samba client is installed, server is not
[04:32] <cellofellow> anyone?
[04:33] <kematzy> usser:  Forgive my stupidty here, but I have a fresh ubuntu 8.10 install and I would like to see the Win XP shares that exists on the network I'm currently on. Nothing shows up for me. That's all I want to do. Not sharing anything FROM my ubuntu.
[04:33] <usser> kematzy, do you see windows machines at all?
[04:33] <kematzy> nope
[04:33] <kematzy> f all
[04:34] <usser> kematzy, should be able to... can you connect to any by ip type smb://ipofthemachine/sharename in nautilus address bar
[04:34] <kematzy> usser:  which smb returns nothing as well
[04:37] <kematzy> usser:  done that, nothing but empty window shows up. At best i get a failed to access error dialog, with "...use another.. something " message in
[04:38] <usser> kematzy, hm thats weird, can you ping the windows machine by ip?
[04:38] <fouad> I installed a more recent version of a package and now apt-get/aptitude is complaining about broken dependencies specific to that packages ... but everything is working just fine. How can I make aptitude/apt-get ignore this error ?
[04:40] <puppypusher> Hey guys. Running 8,10, using native driver for BCM43.xx on a Lenovo 3000 c200. I can connect to networks for periods of time, and then randomly disconnects and tries to default to a different network. Any ideas?
[04:42] <b1n42y> puppypusher, nw manager is flakey with some wireless cards, try wicd
[04:42] <b1n42y> -manager
[04:42] <puppypusher> How do I use wicd? New to linux here, sorry
[04:43] <IndyGunFreak> puppypusher: google it... the homepage explains ho to install it.. its easy
[04:43] <kematzy> usser:  not sure why, but all PC's on network seem to have the same IP addresss (192.168.1.2).  Ping to it works. It's not my network, a friends old office network filled with crappy XP stuff, and I suggested they convert to Ubuntu instead.
[04:43] <puppypusher> Okay. Thanks.
[04:43] <puppypusher> Won't work in Gnome
[04:43] <kriscolt> clear
[04:43] <IndyGunFreak> puppypusher: yes it does.. i use it.
[04:44] <usser> kematzy, thats impossible, are you sure, what does ipconfig say when you run it on a windows machine?
[04:44] <puppypusher> Okay
[04:44] <kriscolt> !codec
[04:44] <IndyGunFreak> puppypusher: it doesn't have any gnome dependencies..
[04:45] <mezy_> hey max
[04:45] <bananagun> usser: I had to give up on GRUB for the moment... it was saying that sdc2 (hd2,1) was not a valid partition
[04:46] <bananagun> usser: I'm just installing using the entire sda
[04:46] <kematzy> usser: Mac user by nature, so only know basic Windoze stuff, and ipconfig in run returns nothing.
[04:46] <mezy_> oh
[04:46] <usser> kematzy, cmd then ipconfig
[04:46] <puppypusher> iwconfig=ipconfig
[04:46] <cremmora> ubuntu sucks its for humans not pcs....lol
[04:46] <usser> bananagun, you have to look at your map in boot/grub
[04:46] <mezy_> how does persistence work?
[04:47] <usser> bananagun, make sure sdc is indeed mapped as hd2
[04:47] <EtFb> My wife is new to KDE (and Linux), and doesn't like the way select/copy/paste works in X-Windows.  How do I switch off the select-to-copy, middle-click-to-paste functionality?
[04:47] <bananagun> usser: I could get it to do something by editing it to be (hd0,1), but then it went into kernel panic saying something about the root= line
[04:48] <cremmora> use gnom is better
[04:48] <bananagun> usser: I have four hard drives so this is a little confusing for me :)
[04:49] <mezy_> uh....
[04:49] <beachboy4231> How do I create a new FTP user? using vsftp installed on ubuntu desktop 8.10
[04:50] <fr500> puppypusher: why do you want wicd?
[04:50] <mezy_> what are the limitations on using a cd with persistence?
[04:50] <SJrX> wicd is the best!
[04:50] <puppypusher> Because my wireless disconnects randomly after periods of time and tries to connect to other networks.
[04:50] <puppypusher> For no reason.
[04:51] <crdlb> EtFb: I don't think it's possible to turn off the primary selection; is she accidentally triggering it a lot?
[04:51] <JulioNeto> I have dual-boot in my computer... Ubuntu and Vista... I'll need to replace Vista to XP... I believe the XP's installation will replace the GRUB, in this case how can I recover GRUB?
[04:52] <crdlb> !fixgrub | JulioNeto
[04:52] <kematzy> usser: OK, thanks. now i got different IP's (seems you cant trust the "Connection Status" window info in XP :( ),  then I can connect to the XP machine (via smb://192.168.1.9/ ) and access the folders. But the share does NOT show up by default when broswsing network, nor by the name of the share.
[04:52] <EtFb> crdlb: I don't know.  Just disabling the middle-click paste would probably do.
[04:53] <JulioNeto> crdlb, thank you very much :D
[04:53]  * aprilhare tries using VirtualBoxx OSE to try out Solaris and wonders why he can't seem to get audio working right
[04:53] <aprilhare> -x
[04:53] <puppypusher> Can I use a virtual machine to run games, instead of WINE?
[04:53] <aprilhare> puppypusher: depends on how slow you like your games
[04:54] <Brando753> what do you type in on the terminal that gives your ip address, in windows its ipconfig
[04:54] <ZykoticK9> puppypusher, short answer is no...
[04:54] <EtFb> puppypusher: I have experience with VMWare that suggests that the video drivers are not much good for high-powered stuff.
[04:54] <ZykoticK9> Brando753, ifconfig
[04:54] <Brando753> thanks
[04:54] <beachboy4231> puppypusher: yes and no, prolly slowly, i would reccommend using windows to run windows games
[04:54] <crdlb> EtFb: that's what I mean, she's accidentically pasting with it?
[04:54] <licensed> JulioNeto eu tb
[04:54] <EtFb> crdlb: Yes.
[04:55] <puppypusher> Blah. I'd rather run primarily Ubuntu, but...it's whatever. lol
[04:55] <aprilhare> you'd be better using crossover to wine actually
[04:56] <slimchef> hello all. i have resolution/display problems: was "messing around" with display settings and now only two options i have are 800x600 and 640x480, any one know how to fix?
[04:56] <beachboy4231> How do I create a new FTP user? using vsftp installed on ubuntu desktop 8.10
[04:56] <aprilhare> slimchef: messing about how
[04:56] <Vantrax|Work> slimchef, when you were messing around did you uninstall your driver?
[04:56] <beachboy4231> slimchef: when you were messing did you edit any txt files?
[04:56] <trenton> im really lost here
[04:57] <aprilhare> trenton: you're in #ubuntu on freenode if it helps
[04:57] <beachboy4231> tenton: with what?
[04:57] <tonsofpcs> is there a way I can tell what binary has a port open?
[04:57] <kriscolt> !codec
[04:57] <slimchef> april: trying to get dual displays working. vantrax: no, infact installed the driver. beachboy: no edit
[04:57] <ZykoticK9> beachboy4231, i don't know about vsftp, but usually you just create a regular user, same as a local (for security you can set their shell to none)
[04:57] <trenton> well iv been trying to get on irc.rizon.net cuz i havent been on there in a while and apparently i cant
[04:58] <beachboy4231> trenton: you need to read the documentation for your irc client
[04:59] <kriscolt> !apt
[04:59] <crdlb> EtFb: as I thought, there doesn't seem to be any way to do it without disabling button 2 entirely
[04:59] <beachboy4231> ZykoticK9: okay, how do i set the root directory to /var/www, would I just create a new user with that set as the home dir?
[05:00] <kriscolt> !repository
[05:00] <ZykoticK9> beachboy4231, that I'm not sure about, right idea for sure, perhaps someone else has guidance in that department
[05:00] <beachboy4231> ZykoticK9, I'll try it
[05:00] <EtFb> crdlb: Bother.  So much for "everything is configurable in Linux".  Ah well.
[05:00] <puppypusher> Crossover isn't free, either lol
[05:00] <kematzy> usser:  THANKS for your help. got to run.
[05:01] <crdlb> EtFb: it is, you just might need a good text editor and a compiler :)
[05:01] <ZykoticK9> beachboy4231, careful with the permissions though, if it's /var/www you still want you web server to work properly
[05:01] <beachboy4231> ZykoticK9: understood
[05:01] <slimchef> any ideas?
[05:01] <kriscolt> doh..
[05:02] <kriscolt> my sound still isn't working
[05:02] <beachboy4231> How do I define a new user group?
[05:02] <kriscolt> i've been messing with this for a while now
[05:02] <jerknextdoor> unop: any chance you're back?  it's still acting up and dont know what to do next.
[05:02] <jtee> Hi, I have been messing around with new/other distro's on a different partition, out of curiosity being a farely new linux user. And while installing one I have overwritten my Ubuntu grub. I'm on LiveCD atm, is there a way for me to restore my grub on my ubuntu partition?
[05:03] <kriscolt> jtee: was it a dual boot system?
[05:03] <jtee> kriscolt: yep
[05:03] <kriscolt> windows?
[05:03] <puppypusher> blah
[05:04] <jtee> kriscolt: No, ubuntu is my main OS.
[05:04] <kriscolt> nix and xp?
[05:04] <kriscolt> no windows at all right?
[05:04] <aperson> is there a way to forward x11 without having a terminal left open?
[05:04] <jtee> kriscolt: Correct.
[05:04] <kriscolt> !grub
[05:06] <kriscolt> does anyone know a keyboard shortcut to jump to another workspace?
[05:06] <beachboy4231> How do I define a new user group in ubuntu desktop?
[05:06] <bruenig> beachboy4231: groupadd
[05:06] <jerknextdoor> kriscolt: ctrl+alt+arrow
[05:06] <beachboy4231> bruenig: that's a command I'm assuming?
[05:06] <kriscolt> nice! thanks jerk
[05:06] <Titan8990> beachboy4231, yes
[05:06] <bruenig> beachboy4231: most definitely

[05:08] <silv3r_m00n> what do the maintenance releases of 8.04 contain ?
[05:08] <beachboy4231> bruenig, ZykoticK9: okay, thanks
[05:08] <lakotajames> is http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826606007 a good camera to buy?
[05:08] <lakotajames> I mean, is it supported?
[05:08] <earthsound> does the update manager keep a log of the packages/repositories that updated/failed to update?
[05:09] <Guest58224> I installed a program with "sh"  command, how do uninstall it?
[05:09] <lakotajames> Hercules Classic Silver webcam?
[05:09] <crdlb> Guest58224: what program?
[05:09] <ZykoticK9> Guest58224, we need more info
[05:10] <Lincid> kriscolt: Thanks. (I was jtee, didn't feel like identifying and all that jazz on pidgin, haha)
[05:10] <beachboy4231> Okay, So how do i create a user for FTP who's directory is /var/www

[05:11] <portablefarhan> I have a strange problem with ubuntu, and virtualbox-ose can someone assist me?
[05:11] <cyanide> I just installed 8.10 today, first time Ubuntu, and sound is not working. I enabled pulse per my user and group setting. I'm have an Audigy 2 and Realtek '97 audio onboard, either working would be great. Any suggestions or site I should visit first?
[05:11] <kriscolt> grr... none of my video files are playing anymore
[05:11] <ZykoticK9> portablefarhan, just say what your problem is
[05:11] <earthsound> for example, in the status column, I sit "Hit" & "Failed", but that dialog window closes too fast for me to see what is failing
[05:12] <portablefarhan> running virtualbox-ose with vboxgtk I installed windows xp in a machine and my arrow keys are all messed up
[05:12] <crdlb> Guest58224: well, all it did was copy files onto your system; so to undo it, you have to find an uninstall action in the script
[05:12] <portablefarhan> I can fix it in vmware server but I like virtualbox better
[05:12] <crdlb> Guest58224: possibly; whatever_you_ran --uninstall
[05:13] <kriscolt> can anyone help clean up my apt sources.list?
[05:13] <kriscolt> i'm not quite sure what i did to myself
[05:13] <portablefarhan> I think it has something to do with the x-erver and other things that I am not knowledgeable about
[05:14] <ZykoticK9> portablefarhan, so the keys in the VM are messed up or on your Host?
[05:14] <silv3r_m00n> will the repositories of say.. 8.04 be updated after the support period is over ?
[05:14] <portablefarhan> in the vm they are messed up
[05:14] <Guest58224> crdlb  : Like this "sh ioquake3-1.34-rc3.run --uninstall" ?
[05:14] <portablefarhan> like the down arrow key is the windows key
[05:14] <portablefarhan> it happened in vmware server too but I found a fix for that,
[05:15] <ZykoticK9> portablefarhan, ? i've used VirtualBox to install many copies of Windows, never had that problem.  But I'd guess it's something to do with Windows not having the right keyboard selected/installed...  sorry not more help.
[05:15] <portablefarhan> er
[05:15] <portablefarhan> actually, it happens in vmware server too
[05:16] <portablefarhan> the sixpack home, end, page up and page down keys are screwed s well
[05:16] <earthsound> kriscolt: you should be able to get that info from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[05:16] <crdlb> Guest58224: possibly
[05:16] <earthsound> if you're wanting to go back to the default list, for example
[05:16] <crdlb> Guest58224: it looks like there may be an 'uninstall.sh' somewhere
[05:17] <Family> hi all, i can see the wireless network using 8.10 but dont know the equivalent of wpa-psk in xp to ubuntu etc
[05:17] <kriscolt> ..ok
[05:17] <kriscolt> i'll try it
[05:17] <cabl3n3k3> Is there a reason why flash has horrible playback
[05:17] <Guest58224> crdlb: I don't even know where to look. Should I just format the HDD drive and reinstall Ubuntu?
[05:17] <cyanide> I just installed 8.10 today, first time Ubuntu, and sound is not working. I enabled pulse per my user and group setting. I'm have an Audigy 2 and Realtek '97 audio onboard, either working would be great. Any suggestions or site I should visit first?
[05:17] <Guest58224> Seems like it's the easiest thing to do.
[05:18] <portablefarhan> do you have all the pulse utils installed?
[05:18] <cyanide> how would I be able to check to be certain?
[05:18] <opera> what command can dispaly the ruing program's id code?
[05:19] <crdlb> Guest58224: I just downloaded it
[05:19] <bLue_giRly> yhipth
[05:19] <bLue_giRly> siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip man
[05:19] <Titan8990> opera, its known as a PID (proccess ID):   ps aux
[05:19] <bLue_giRly> hi cyanide?
[05:19] <opera> o .thank you TIAN8990
[05:20] <bLue_giRly> hi opera?
[05:20] <cyanide> Hello, sorry if I missed a question. Lagged out after asking it the last time :x
[05:20] <bazhang> bLue_giRly, do you have a support question
[05:20] <aperson> opera: I like to use: xprop | awk '/PID/ {print $3}' | xargs ps -p
[05:20] <bLue_giRly> yes yes i have
[05:20] <portablefarhan> to be completely serious I hate pulse, and disabled it two hours after installing ubuntu
[05:20] <Titan8990> opera, np, also useful is piping ps aux through grep:   ps aux | grep 'ps I am looking for'
[05:20] <aperson> opera: click on a window of a running program and it gives you the pid
[05:21] <Titan8990> opera, or you can use awk like suggested, but I personally run in fear of regex
[05:21] <sebsebseb> victoria_: same one here a few days or so ago?
[05:21] <bLue_giRly> (_)_)[05:21] <slimchef> Can anybody help with a resolution issue? installed ubuntu yesterday, trying to get dual monitor support, ended up changing my resolution to 800x600, and cant get it back to anything higher. any suggestions
[05:21] <sebsebseb> that was here then
[05:21] <bazhang> bLue_giRly, stop that
[05:21] <bLue_giRly> (_)_)[05:21] <bLue_giRly> (_)_)[05:21] <FloodBot1> bLue_giRly: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:22] <portablefarhan> wow that is handy
[05:22] <cyanide> portable> I'm new to ubuntu and only had past experience with RHEL which found my audio by itself. At this point I'm willing to use whatever app as long as sound will work lol
[05:23] <Guest58224> crdlb : Any luck?
[05:23] <slimchef> cyanide: can i pm for help?
[05:23] <bLue_giRly> hi
[05:23] <crdlb> Guest58224: did you run the installer with sudo?
[05:23] <cuddlefish> How do you share your internet connection over Bluetooth?
[05:24] <cyanide> Slim> Yes, please
[05:24] <Guest58224> crdlb : I used sudo -s
[05:24] <opera> THANK YOU all. and i use Ps aux |grep opera
[05:24] <bLue_giRly> hi opera
[05:24] <opera> hello. blue_girly
[05:24] <smo_PenguinStyle> Hey all.  Any thoughts on how to get dual monitors to work (using laptop hp dv9428nr)?
[05:24] <smpi> nax 96
[05:24] <dreamy> hi room
[05:24] <bLue_giRly> (_)_)[05:25] <dreamy> how can i install my opensource driver for my radeon ? ati ?
[05:25] <Daft_Punk> ok to get an HTTP file server running (its a windows file server program in wine) do i have to run it as SUDO wine hfs.exe because i want to use port 80 and it wont let me, do you have to run as sudo to get programs to run on ports below 1024?
[05:25] <Titan8990> bazhang, thank you, might be best not remove the ban this time
[05:25] <IndyGunFreak> you'd think if she wanted to try ascii art, she could just PM herself, or open her own channel.
[05:25] <crdlb> Guest58224: ok, you can run sudo /usr/local/games/ioquake3/uninstall
[05:26] <cuddlefish> How do you share your internet connection out from Wi-Fi (wlan0) to Bluetooth?
[05:26] <Titan8990> Daft_Punk, why on earth would you run a windows server app in wine?
[05:26] <Gun_Smoke> anyone know if this channel has a usage graph somewhere?
[05:26] <crdlb> Guest58224: the installation doesn't look too invasive though; why did you want to uninstall it anyway?
[05:26] <Titan8990> Daft_Punk, linux server applications are considerably better
[05:26] <smo_PenguinStyle> Hey all.  Any thoughts on how to get dual monitors to work (using laptop hp dv9428nr)?
[05:26] <cuddlefish> How do you share your internet connection out from Wi-Fi (wlan0) to Bluetooth (Broadcom adapter)?
[05:26] <Titan8990> Daft_Punk, and imo, if you want to run windows apps, you should run windows
[05:26] <Daft_Punk> Titan8990, it is a simple http file server, easy to use gui, the ones in linux are command line
[05:27] <Guest58224> crdlb: Couldn't get it to work - and the installation instructions on the site are only written for experienced Linux users
[05:27] <Titan8990> Daft_Punk, then use windows....
[05:27] <Daft_Punk> Titan8990, the app is flawless in wine, its just i can only use port 8080 not 80, so can i use port 80 if i run it as root
[05:27] <Guest58224> crdlb: Just another headache for just a simple task, I guess.
[05:27] <dreamy> how do i check witch graphics drivers is currently installed in my computer? .. :S ?
[05:27] <crdlb> Guest58224: so did you try the uninstall script?
[05:27] <dreamy> in my ubuntu i mean
[05:28] <Titan8990> dreamy, lswh -v
[05:28] <dreamy> ty
[05:28] <crdlb> dreamy: if you have an ATI card, the open source driver is used by default
[05:28] <Guest58224> crdlb: Didn't know there was one. Nothing told me one was available.
[05:28] <ZykoticK9> Daft_Punk, running a Windows Network Service as root is a bit insane in my opinion...
[05:28] <IndyGunFreak> Daft_Punk: root is not going to effect wine..
[05:28] <cuddlefish> How do you share your internet connection out from Wi-Fi (wlan0) to Bluetooth? Sorry for the semi-spam, this is really urgent...
[05:28] <Titan8990> Daft_Punk, they are CLI because linux servers don't have GUIs
[05:28] <Cheezewhizz> .
[05:28] <smo_PenguinStyle> Hello all.  Does anyone know how to get multi-mon to work?
[05:28] <crdlb> Guest58224: 00:25 < crdlb> Guest58224: ok, you can run sudo /usr/local/games/ioquake3/uninstall
[05:28] <dreamy> crdlb: but in xorg.conf ithere nothing loading "ati" meantioned
[05:28] <Titan8990> Daft_Punk, GUIs are a waste of time and resources
[05:29] <Guest58224> crdlb: I did, and got this message Could not find a usable uninstall program. Aborting.
[05:29] <Titan8990> Daft_Punk, I would recommend apache for a http file server in linux
[05:29] <kriscolt> --i can't get any of my multimedia files at all to play...
[05:29] <Brando753> hey how do i connect my laptop (ubuntu) to my desktop (ubuntu) to share a printer
[05:29] <crdlb> dreamy: it's automatic; if you want to verify, open /var/log/Xorg.0.log and search for radeon_drv.so
[05:29] <kriscolt> can't even get a system beep
[05:29] <cuddlefish> Daft_Punk:Use Apache.
[05:29] <cuddlefish> It has several GUI's
[05:29] <Gun_Smoke> !ask > smo_PenguinStyle
[05:29] <Daft_Punk> Titan8990, honestly, i dont appreciate you telling me to go use windows and not do this or that, because this is the way i want to get it to work, and also why would i use windows? i hate windows
[05:29] <dreamy> ok crdlb
[05:29] <IndyGunFreak> Daft_Punk: he has a point, if you want to use windows apps, use windows...
[05:29] <aprilhare> hate is such a strong word. what has computer code done to hurt you so?
[05:29] <Daft_Punk> well what is WINE for then? eye candy?
[05:29] <smo_PenguinStyle> @Gun_Smoke:  I'm not asking to ask a question.  I have asked a question mult times, to no avail.
[05:29] <Titan8990> Daft_Punk, I am only trying to help
[05:30] <dreamy> Titan8990: was it lshw instead ?  not lswh
[05:30] <neil_d> trying to get vmplayer to work, I started it ok :)   stoped it   and it wont start again :(   nothing is being put in the log file, there are no .lck files  what is going on?
[05:30] <Titan8990> dreamy, sorry, yes
[05:30] <Gun_Smoke> smo_PenguinStyle, then what do you think that mean?
[05:30] <IndyGunFreak> Titan8990: and considering how much you're paying for support in here, i think its pretty irrelevant what you don't appreciate, he's giving you the best answers
[05:30] <slimchef> crdlb: can i pm for help?
[05:30] <crdlb> Guest58224: there should only be /usr/local/games/ioquake3/ and /usr/local/bin/ioquake3
[05:30] <Daft_Punk> the app WORKS, i dont have an issue with the app, im asking about running stuff on linux under port 1024, do i have to have root permission to do so? because it says port 80 is being used but i checked netstat and its not
[05:30] <cuddlefish> How do you share your internet connection out from Wi-Fi (wlan0) to Bluetooth? Sorry for the semi-spam, this is really urgent...
[05:30] <Guest58224> crdld: I guess I can just manually delete them?
[05:30] <nickrud> Daft_Punk, the short answer is yes
[05:30] <smo_PenguinStyle> @gun_smoke:  scrw off...
[05:31] <holyguyver> If I turned off pulseaudio how can I turn it back on?
[05:31] <StR|Sangreal> please, i am using gnome in slovak and am not sure of proper translation, but i need to fully reset sth like =standard password bundle=
[05:31] <Guest58224> crdlb: there's no "registry" type linux thingies left behind or anything like that?
[05:31] <holyguyver> How can I restart pulseaudio?
[05:31] <ZykoticK9> holyguyver, "sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio start"
[05:31] <cyanide> port 80 is http information traffic
[05:31] <Family> hi all, i can see the wireless network using 8.10 but dont know the equivalent of wpa-psk in xp to ubuntu etc. plus xp just ask only for a network key but 8.10 ask for userid and pwd. Help
[05:31] <crdlb> Guest58224: yeah nothing from an offical ubuntu package will install into /usr/local; so nothing in there is critical
[05:32] <usser> Family, wpa2
[05:32] <IndyGunFreak> Family: is your network unsecured?
[05:32] <Daft_Punk> nickrud, ok thank you, i found a workaround, by using my IP:port as the target for the redirect on my DNS server and it will default the address to whatever port i choose, but i just wanted to know why it was saying port 80 was being used when it was not. so thx
[05:32] <lee> Hell Katie
[05:32] <portablefarhan1> cyanide
[05:32] <Titan8990> Family, userid is only required with RADIUS authentication
[05:32] <lee> Hello Katie
[05:32] <dreamy> crdlb: i did see alot of stuff metioning ati and radeon
[05:33] <nickrud> Guest58224, some packages will put placeholder dirs in /usr/local, like python.
[05:33] <Family> IndyGunFreak> yes its secured only by a network key when we access via XP
[05:33] <Guest58224> crdlb: How come the Linux community has the mentality that providing rudimentary information is a chore?
[05:33] <IndyGunFreak> Family: then you'll need the network key to get on the network
[05:33] <nickrud> Guest58224, usually no answer means that the people paying attention at the moment don't know.
[05:33] <holyguyver> Failed to load  module "module-alsa-sink" (argument: "device_id=0 sink_name=alsa_output.pci_10de_26c_sound_card_0_alsa_playback_0"): initialization failed.
[05:33] <Brando753> hey how do i connect my laptop (ubuntu) to my desktop (ubuntu) to share a printer
[05:33] <Vantrax|Work> Guest20336, sorry that you feel that way, i tend to think its because of the inherent ambiguity
[05:33] <Titan8990> Guest58224, because many of us learned through reading documentation and etc, we try to pass that skill on to others
[05:34] <Family> in XP it ask for 1 thing a network key but in 8.10 it ask for userid and password. i have only 1
[05:34] <Titan8990> Guest58224, we don't intentionally drive people away but sometimes we do try to get people to develop skills in reading documentation and doing their own research
[05:34] <earthsound> Daft_Punk: do you have something else already running on that port?
[05:35] <crdlb> dreamy: the most foolproof method is to search for radeon_drv.so, but a bunch of lines starting with RADEON: indicates it too
[05:35] <Family> im so near and access the network
[05:35] <Guest58224> Titan: The easiest way form someone to learn is by doing. And the easiest way to do something is to have someone tell you how to do it - not everyone learns in the same way.
[05:35] <Family> im so near and cant access the network
[05:35] <usser> Family, its wpa&wpa2 personal
[05:36] <allan> hello all
[05:36] <earthsound> Daft_Punk: you can try netstat -anp|grep 80
[05:36] <Titan8990> Guest58224, I have to agree that doing something is the best way to learn, but also disagree that being spoon fed information is the best way....
[05:36] <Family> i have that usser but if i leave the userid blank i cant connect cuz that button is greyed out
[05:37] <Guest58224> Titan: Well, the problem with that philosophy is this Show me ONE person WHO HASN'T been spoon fed?
[05:37] <dreamy> crdlb: ok.. i ve seen ati_drv.so
[05:37] <usser> Family, wpa2 personal should only ask for a passphrase
[05:37] <nickrud> Guest58224, me?
[05:37] <dreamy> i dig it now...
[05:37] <Titan8990> Guest58224, you could get a lot of "me" in here....
[05:37] <Brando753> hey how do i connect my laptop (ubuntu) to my desktop (ubuntu) to share a printer
[05:37] <crdlb> dreamy: ati will load radeon (it's a wrapper)
[05:37] <Family> its only showing WPA and WPA2 Enterprise
[05:37] <nickrud> Guest58224, which is one reason why I spend time here, trying to keep people from going down that painful and often dead ended search
[05:38] <nickrud> Guest58224, generally we encourage direct answers, along with pointers on how to find out more. Sometimes not achieved but far more often here than you might think
[05:38] <Titan8990> Guest58224, I personally do a lot of teaching, but I also do a lot of "pointing someone in the right direction"
[05:39] <Titan8990> Guest58224, I do what fits the scenerio the best and I use my best judgement
[05:39] <Titan8990> Guest58224, I am not a professional teacher.....
[05:39] <Guest58224> Meh, tell em  how it's done, then they know and have a point of reference for the future.
[05:39]  * nickrud wonders what issue wasn't approached well ;)
[05:40] <ZykoticK9> Brando753, this might help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=163882 good luck
[05:40] <Titan8990> Guest58224, when you get skilled enough and have the time to hang out in IRC, you can do that
[05:40] <sebsebseb> yeah  I just done a guy :)  remote connecting
[05:40] <sebsebseb> I do  setting up with Ubuntu basics remote connecting with some people now
[05:40] <Guest58224> I will, one day. If I don't kill my self from bashing my head on my keyboard.
[05:41] <Titan8990> Guest58224, well, we are getting OT, what was the problem you were having?

[05:43] <sebsebseb> altough that would be nice
[05:43] <nickrud> there was one, but he got a new job

[05:44] <williamchan_> hi - does anyone know of a distributed file system that is self aware? ie. if there are 500 nodes of 7200rpm drives and 500 nodes of 5400rpm drives, it knows how to smartly place/mirror files efficiently
[05:44] <nickrud> canonical. But we're way off topic now. (he was here when he had free time from his other support gig. Actually spend quite a bit here)
[05:44] <sebsebseb> nickrud: in fact that's something I am interested in, how can you get paid to suppourt Ubuntu?
[05:44] <Guest58224> What's the name of the file browser used by Ubuntu?

[05:48] <sood> hey is it possible to change my nick name on IRC ?
[05:48] <IntoxicKat> Yeah!
[05:48] <williamchan_> sood: /nick yournick
[05:48] <Titan8990> suzao, most likely it is not due to your lack of resolutions in xorg, but the graphics driver that you are using
[05:48] <cuddlefish> sood: /nick
[05:48] <Vantrax|Work> sood do a /nick <name>
[05:48] <earthsound> is there a way to pause the repository/package update window (or view a log) to see what is failing and what is updating properly?
[05:48] <Titan8990> suzao, there are limitations to the vesa driver which is the fallback driver
[05:49] <Vantrax|Work> earthsound, easiest way is to use the terminal to install by typing sudo apt-get install <package name>
[05:49] <Titan8990> earthsound, in order to do that, you should run the updater from the command line
[05:49] <Titan8990> earthsound, sudo aptitude full-upgrade
[05:49] <sood> thx williamcham
[05:49] <sood> but when i use this command
[05:49] <sood> say "/nick gaurav
[05:50] <cuddlefish> sood: #irc
[05:50] <sood> it says already in use and this was the name i used earlier
[05:50] <williamchan_> nickrud: any pointers where i can get info for self-aware distributed file systems? or do they even exist?
[05:50] <earthsound> when i do sudo apt-get update, it shows either Hit or Ign for each line
[05:50] <nickrud> williamchan_, nope, I sure don't
[05:50] <sood> ok
[05:50] <sood> #irc
[05:50] <sood> nothing happened with #irc
[05:50] <Vantrax|Work> earthsound that means its not finding your repository
[05:50] <KilasImbang> lol
[05:51] <Titan8990> sood, also, this should help: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml
[05:51] <Vantrax|Work> earthsound are you downloading from the ubuntu main repository? and if so what version of ubuntu
[05:51] <earthsound> but in the GUI update manager, when I click the check button, that window shows some fail and hit in the status. does Hit in the GUI == Ign on command line?
[05:51] <SuperDefenderX> !kernel
[05:51] <nickrud> sood, if you used a password with it you could do   /nickserv ghost <nick> <password>
[05:51] <suzao> Titan8990: it seems that I am using a newer version of nvidia driver.
[05:51] <sood> ok lemme try
[05:51] <cuddlefish> sood: /join #irc

[05:53] <gajop> hey, any idea what software (libraries) i should use to capture photos from camera and represent images in C/C++ so I can process them?
[05:53] <dreamy> crdlb: another issue. if i install the package ubuntu studio will it be the same has having ubuntu stuido original ? u know?
[05:54] <dreamy> i mean will it be the same has installing the ubuntu studio cd ....
[05:54] <crdlb> dreamy: I believe so; you may need to switch kernels though (I think ubuntustudio uses linux-rt by default)
[05:54] <dreamy> :S ok...:(
[05:55] <archerseven> dreamy:  it's similar, i've actually heard that installing studio through the package is better, it updates better.
[05:55] <dreamy> cool..then..
[05:55] <Titan8990> suzao, here is a xorg.conf.example, everything you need to know: http://pastebin.com/d6b3892f2
[05:56] <suzao> Titan8990: http://pastebin.com/m27d4c8c0
[05:56] <earthsound> Vantrax|Work: is there a way to see which of those are failing and which are updating ok?
[05:56] <dreamy> just one simple question.. why do i realy need to install "U studio" cant i run any application at my choice with normal ubuntu?
[05:56] <^law^> guys how 2 get list of services from terminal?
[05:57] <Flannel> dreamy: Yep.
[05:57] <Titan8990> ^law^, "services" per say, is a windows thing
[05:57] <dreamy> hmm...
[05:57] <^law^> daemons
[05:57] <Titan8990> ^law^, ps aux
[05:58] <archerseven> dreamy: yes, studio just makes them easier, i ran studio before i switched to mint, i liked it having everything... kinda nice, but i do a lot of audio work.
[05:58] <Titan8990> ^law^, the closest thing linux has to services:  ls -l /etc/init.d
[05:58] <suzao> Titan8990: I just want the correct resolution & prefer to be able to use 3D hardware also.
[05:58] <ZykoticK9> ^law^, "ps aux" shows you everything that's running, not just daemons
[05:58] <^law^> i want to know whic services that started automatically
[05:58] <dreamy> okey archerseven
[05:58] <Titan8990> ^law^, then ls -l /etc/init.d
[05:58] <^law^> from terminal wat command should i invoke?
[05:59] <Titan8990> ^law^, as long as you haven't removed any via update-rc
[05:59] <^law^> i just fresh installed
[05:59] <Titan8990> suzao, did you install proprietary graphics driver via the restricted hardware manager?
[06:00] <Titan8990> ^law^, then the command I gave should be fine
[06:00] <lachybus> hello world
[06:00] <^law^> ok thx :)
[06:01] <^law^> r all services in init.d is started during OS start up?
[06:02] <Titan8990> ^law^, yes, by default
[06:02] <^law^> then how i know if a service is running or not?
[06:02] <Titan8990> ^law^, then System -> Preferences -> Sessions   are executed on start up
[06:03] <Titan8990> ^law^, ps aux | grep 'service'
[06:03] <Titan8990> ^law^, sorry meant that sessions are executed on LOG IN....
[06:04] <^law^> Titan8990, ps aux | grep 'service doesn't list up any services
[06:05] <Titan8990> ^law^, replace 'service' with the process that you are looking for
[06:05] <ZykoticK9> ^law^, the 'service' is a variable, input what your looking for
[06:05] <^law^> i knw tat i have samba tat running now
[06:05] <Titan8990> ^law^, then:   ps aux | grep 'samba'
[06:06] <Titan8990> ^law^, for more info:   man grep   and    man grep
[06:06] <ZykoticK9> Titan8990, ^law^ i think samba is actually smbd isn't it?
[06:06] <Titan8990> ^law^, ehh sorry one of those should have read   man ps
[06:06] <^law^> but i wanna list all services tat g currently running
[06:06] <^law^> but i wanna list all services that  currently running
[06:07] <^law^> ZykoticK9, ya
[06:07] <Titan8990> ^law^, and ZykoticK9 is correct, the samba daemon is smbd
[06:07] <cactusfrog> hi
[06:07] <ZykoticK9> ^law^, what are you trying to do?
[06:07] <cactusfrog> i have a question
[06:07] <cactusfrog> i have a hp
[06:07] <dreamy> gnite sll
[06:07] <Vantrax|Work> earthsound if you run a sudo aptitude update it should give you errors on what is not working
[06:07] <Titan8990> ^law^, in linux, there is no real difference from a services and process
[06:07] <Lincid> !ask | cactusfrog
[06:07] <dreamy> gnite all
[06:07] <cactusfrog> and i want to dule boot
[06:07] <cactusfrog> with windows
[06:07] <cactusfrog> and ubatu
[06:08] <cactusfrog> i pirited windows xp
[06:08] <^law^> i wanna know how 2 list all the services that currently running from terminal
[06:08] <cactusfrog> and i cant find how to install it
[06:08] <suzao> Titan8990: yes, i installed it via the restricted hardware manager
[06:08] <Titan8990> !dualboot | cactusfrog
[06:08] <cactusfrog> well
[06:08] <cactusfrog> i have two hardrives
[06:08] <DigitalKiwi> oh this is lawl
[06:08] <Titan8990> suzao, then have a look at the xorg.conf.example I posted
[06:08] <cactusfrog> and i want to put xp on teh newer one
[06:08] <cactusfrog> because i can only wipe the hardrive with ubatu
[06:08] <Titan8990> ^law^, ps aux
[06:08] <cactusfrog> and i want to install xp on to a bootable disk
[06:09] <cactusfrog> but i cant do it
[06:09] <Scunizi> cactusfrog: pirited windows help can not be had here.. maybe ##windows
[06:09] <Titan8990> ^law^, server = proccess
[06:09] <Flannel> cactusfrog: Please stop using the enter key as punctuation.
[06:09] <DigitalKiwi> are we allowed to give advice to pirates? D:
[06:09] <Vantrax|Work> no
[06:09] <DigitalKiwi> phew
[06:09] <Scunizi> DigitalKiwi: nopoe
[06:09] <suzao> Titan 8990: im not sure what I would be looking for.
[06:09] <Titan8990> ^law^, err service, not sure I can have more typos while helping the same person....
[06:09] <cactusfrog> but its not egegal
[06:09] <^law^> ps is 4 process rite?
[06:09] <cactusfrog> illegal
[06:09] <cactusfrog> i mean for me to download it on to a disk it is
[06:09] <cactusfrog> btu for me to have it on my harddrive it isn't
[06:10] <Titan8990> ^law^, yes, but in linux a deamon/service is synomous with a proccess
[06:10] <earthsound> Vantrax|Work: it gives the same thing apt-get update does: a bunch of lines with either Ign or Hit at the beginning of each. I cannot find an authoritative explanation as to what those Hit and Ign mean
[06:10] <Lincid> !dualboot | cactusfrog
[06:10] <Flannel> cactusfrog: Everything you need to know is available on that wiki page.
[06:10] <^law^> ok then i got it know thx so much
[06:10] <suzao> Titan8990: could you give me the parameters to get the extra resolution working? im not sure where to edit them
[06:11] <Titan8990> ^law^, np
[06:11] <cactusfrog> ok another completely unrealted question
[06:11] <cactusfrog> anyone good with q3 like servers
[06:11] <cactusfrog> cuz i cant find how to change the path that tremed looks for the qvm
[06:11] <w3rd__> n e body installed oracle on ubuntu server?
[06:11] <Titan8990> suzao, http://pastebin.com/d11fee38c
[06:12] <Titan8990> suzao, if a section does exist that looks similar to that, create one
[06:12] <Titan8990> suzao, always backup your xorg first though:   sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
[06:12] <earthsound> is there no way to keep the "download package information" window open?
[06:12] <oh_noes> Any ideas about my problem? > http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6828672#post6828672
[06:13] <Titan8990> oh_noes, what does the readme.txt say?
[06:15] <oh_noes> Titan8990: doesnt say anything abotu the Linux one.
[06:15] <Titan8990> oh_noes, then what is it for?
[06:15] <oh_noes> Huh?
[06:15] <Titan8990> oh_noes, pastebin the readme.txt
[06:16] <Titan8990> oh_noes, also, are you running ubuntu on a vanilla kernel??
[06:17] <paulSterio> does anyone know of this gcc issue that reportlabs has with ubuntu 8.10?
[06:18] <ZykoticK9> oh_noes, Titan8990 the readme might be the same as http://download3.vmware.com/software/vi/VMware-OvfTool-README.txt which doesn't mention much about linux
[06:19] <oh_noes> Titan8990: yep 100% vanilla Out of the box kernel.    And yep, thats the README.txt
[06:19] <Titan8990> ZykoticK9, oh_noes the first thing it says is sytem requirements: windows.....
[06:19] <Titan8990> oh_noes, vanilla kernels are not supported in ubuntu, it breaks a lot of things
[06:21] <Flannel> Titan8990: "vanilla" could just as easily mean 'default ubuntu' kernel
[06:21] <cactusfrog> OK QUICK EASY QUESTION
[06:21] <cactusfrog> how do i burn a windows xp disk
[06:21] <illumin8> Ask microsoft
[06:21]  * cactusfrog slams his head agenst his desk
[06:21] <cactusfrog> uhg
[06:21] <cyril0411hu> hey, anyone know why ubuntu failed on man strcpy?
[06:22] <ZykoticK9> cactusfrog, pretty sure they all say "do not make copies of this disk"
[06:22] <Scunizi> cactusfrog: see.. now you're getting closer to installing that pirated copy of xp.. no help here.
[06:22] <cactusfrog> i know
[06:22] <cactusfrog> but guess what
[06:22] <Johnny3> hello
[06:22] <_Xenu> cyril0411hu, install the manpages-dev package
[06:22] <Johnny3> i have a problem
[06:22] <Johnny3> the Gdebi packiage installer doesnt work
[06:22] <cactusfrog> nomater what i do i can not figure it out my self
[06:22] <CppIsWeird> how can i know if ubuntu is using usb 1.1 or usb 2.0?
[06:22] <Johnny3> im using ubuntu 8.04
[06:22] <cactusfrog> i am that fucking stupid
[06:22] <cactusfrog> its unfair
[06:22] <cactusfrog> that people are smarter then me
[06:23] <Titan8990> Flannel, sorry, to me vanilla = downloaded from kernel.org
[06:23] <Flannel> Titan8990: right, but when he said "Yes, out of the box" he obviously understands vanilla as default U kernel
[06:23] <crdlb> that is what it means, but I could see how somebody would misinterpret it :)
[06:24] <Titan8990> Flannel, good catch, I didn't understand its meaning
[06:24] <werdnum> /usr/lib/policykit/polkit-read-auth-helper: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/policykit/polkit-read-auth-helper: undefined symbol: kit_getpwnam
[06:24] <werdnum> eee
[06:27] <paulSterio> what is gcc?
[06:27] <nickrud> gnu c compiler iirc
[06:27] <Antioch> gnu c compiler
[06:27] <paulSterio> how do I update it?
[06:27] <paulSterio> or remove it
[06:27] <paulSterio> I've tried apt-get install gcc
[06:27] <Antioch> sudo aptitude install build-essential
[06:28] <nickrud> paulSterio, why? to upgrade from ubuntu's version, you'd need to compile or backport from jaunty
[06:28] <Antioch> should give you everything you need to compiler basic things
[06:28] <Antioch> compile*
[06:28] <Titan8990> paulSterio, what is your problem exactly?
[06:28] <DigitalKiwi> people compile stuff on ubuntu?
[06:28] <Titan8990> DigitalKiwi, they do, but its not recommended
[06:28] <nilson> Lol, people compile stuff on every distro
[06:28] <nickrud> DigitalKiwi, nah, all the dev's do their development on fedora
[06:28] <Titan8990> DigitalKiwi, also, people write their own code
[06:28] <nilson> Why would it not be recommended?
[06:28] <DigitalKiwi> I knew it!
[06:28] <nilson> That doesn't make sense.
[06:29] <DigitalKiwi> if I was an ubuntu dev I'd use fedora
[06:29] <DigitalKiwi> *nod8
[06:29] <DigitalKiwi> *
[06:29] <Antioch> lol why?
[06:29] <nickrud> nilson, more a matter of encouraging people to use the packager
[06:29] <ZykoticK9> nilson, if you manually compile install there is no package management, so it's hard to uninstall/update/etc...
[06:29] <nilson> I understand that, but I thgouth you meant against compiling in general
[06:29] <Antioch> I compile things on Ubuntu all the time. C, C++, C#, Java (if you consider the last two "compiled")
[06:29] <homecable> whats the most used webserver ?
[06:29] <homecable> apache22
[06:29] <nilson> I have to compile obscure research software at work all day :)
[06:29] <Titan8990> nilson, becuase A) its harder to uninstall programs that have been compiled from source B) it can cause conflicts with people who try to compile programs from source prior to removing versions they have got from the repos
[06:30] <Titan8990> homecable, netcraft.com
[06:30] <Neverb> how is utility, forces readline input named?
[06:30] <nilson> Yeah I always try to use the package manager on my distro
[06:30] <nilson> I don't work with software that exists in software repos though :P
[06:31] <Antioch> you could compile & build your own package before installing it
[06:31] <Antioch> then you'd be able to remove it and upgrade it safely
[06:31] <Antioch> ;)
[06:31] <crdlb> a better idea is to use /opt/somedir for the prefix
[06:31] <Titan8990> nilson, then maybe ubuntu is not the best choice?
[06:31] <paulSterio> Antioch,  ok took your advice to build-essential. I'm still getting this gcc issue when I try and easy_install reportlab
[06:31] <paulSterio> http://dpaste.com/5050/
[06:31] <nickrud> Titan8990, there's nothing wrong with using ubuntu as a developement platform
[06:31] <oh_noes> Titan8990: no, theres two versions, linux and windows.  ANd by vanilla kernel, I meant whatever Ubuntu 8.10 Server installed off the CD
[06:32] <nilson> That's true, I need to look into building RPMs. Titan8990, no it's a RHEL system at work. I thought originally that you were against using Ubuntu for compiling in general; not neccesarily to install software in this manager
[06:32] <paulSterio> why is it doing this on ubuntu 8.10?
[06:32] <Ademan> does anyone know how I could run a process after a given amount of idle time? (as root) is that something i could do via upstart?
[06:32] <Antioch> Not loading, but I'll bet there's some package xyz-dev youre missing
[06:32] <crdlb> paulSterio: heh, because you don't have python-dev :)
[06:32] <Antioch> or some lib-dev
[06:33] <Antioch> There ya go!
[06:33] <Titan8990> oh_noes, and both versions only contain documentation for windows?
[06:33] <Antioch> Too bad dpaste isnt loading for me or I woulda beat you to it!
[06:33] <crdlb> the first line "error: Python.h: No such file or directory" is your clue
[06:33] <Flannel> paulSterio: Looks like you're missing a dev fil for python
[06:33] <ZykoticK9> Ademan, look into the "sleep" command
[06:33] <paulSterio> are you serious
[06:33] <nickrud> paulSterio, I think you need python-dev
[06:34] <paulSterio> yea I've already started the process
[06:34] <ZykoticK9> Ademan, sorry think i misinterpreted the question
[06:34] <Ademan> ZykoticK9: i was about to say :-p but thanks for the response
[06:34]  * nilson is upgrading to Jaunty A5 at this point...
[06:34] <rww> !jaunty | nilson
[06:34] <Titan8990> nickrud, as for development its fine, but if you plan on installing lots of programs from source in order to use them, ubuntu would not be my recommendation
[06:34] <rww> nilson: enjoy your lots of breakage!
[06:34] <nilson> I like it
[06:34] <nilson> lol
[06:34] <Antioch> paulSterio, That's the first thing to check when building something new. Make sure you've got the right libraries and dev pacakges :)
[06:35] <nilson> I've been using Jaunty for a while now
[06:35] <oh_noes> Titan8990:  I guess so.  The Windows versions comes with ovftools.exe
[06:35] <oh_noes> so the version i have is right
[06:35] <nickrud> Titan8990, not a problem; I would myself. nice tools for packaging up whatever I compile, or fooling the packaging system into using my versions if needed
[06:35] <paulSterio> yea but where did it tell you that you needed python-dev?
[06:35] <paulSterio> nope
[06:36] <paulSterio> still got the same error
[06:36] <Titan8990> oh_noes, my only suggestion would be to try adding that directory to your path
[06:36] <Antioch> Well it said it was missing python.h - which is a piece of source code (a header file for a library)
[06:36] <nickrud> paulSterio, it asked for Python.h ; try python2.5-dev
[06:36] <crdlb> paulSterio: python-dev is what provides the python development headers
[06:36] <Titan8990> oh_noes, but only temporarily
[06:37] <nickrud> paulSterio, what I did was apt-file search Python.h . the apt-file package helps find what package a file is in

[06:37] <aprilhare> i'm having a problem with virtualbox ose: i installed solaris on vbox and i can't get the audio working. 1) is it a ubuntu problem or a solaris problem? 2) what do i do? :)
[06:38] <rww> aprilhare: it's a solaris or #vbox problem
[06:38] <Seper> Sounds like a vb problem
[06:38] <[saat_koneksi_le> #semarang
[06:39] <Seper> aprilhare: If the audio in Ubuntu is working, then I think you can eliminate Ubuntu as the problem
[06:39] <[saat_koneksi_le> join/#semarang
[06:39] <rww> [saat_koneksi_le: /join #semarang
[06:39] <aprilhare> Seper: well it does give me a choice for host driver between oss, alsa and pulseaudio - which should i persevere with?
[06:40] <aprilhare> oh and null. but i assumed null bad.
[06:40] <Seper> aprilhare: I believe the default for Intrepid is now pulse
[06:41] <aprilhare> Seper: thanks that's what i last set thou :)
[06:41] <Seper> aprilhare: I would try each of them in turn and simply reboot the vbox, since here are only 3 choices.
[06:41] <Chaorain> I use vista and Wubi on my laptop with bluetooth built in and I would like to use my bt mouse with both Ubuntu and Vista but I can only use it with one at a time as I have to re-pair it each time. Any Help?
[06:42] <homeskill> how come i cant ctrl+pgup eve one page? i'm using screen(1) in the default ubuntu terminal
[06:42] <aprilhare> actually i think i've chosen all three by now
[06:42] <Seper> aprilhare: If it makes no sound on any of the choices, then I would reset it to pulse or alsa, and look to see if I could find a prob with solaris.
[06:42] <Chaorain> Also which  is best for full screen games? Gnome, KDE, or XFCE?
[06:42] <aprilhare> Seper: oh there are plenty of problems with solaris but i must learn :) thanks anyway
[06:43] <Seper> aprilhare: Setting my programs to Alsa seems to often work as good or better than setting to pulse. fyi
[06:43] <Seper> aprilhare: That's just my personal experience
[06:44] <Seper> Chaorain: The only real difference is the amount of RAM they consume while loaded.
[06:45] <Seper> Chaorain: If you want a real noticeable improvement, you might have to use something like fluxbox
[06:46] <Chaorain> Seper, So how much ram do they use? about. like KDE > Gnome > XFCE
[06:46] <Seper> I can't say for sure, but that looks like it's about right.
[06:46] <homeskill> why doesnt alt or ctrl pgup scroll up in a gnome terminal?
[06:47] <Chaorain> k thanks
[06:47] <crdlb> homeskill: shift-pgup does
[06:47] <aprilhare> Seper: thanks for that
[06:48] <homeskill> crdlb it must be because im using screen(1) because its not working
[06:48] <Seper> welcome
[06:48] <Seper> homeskill: Use: ctrl-a + [
[06:48] <oh_noes> Will ubuntu 64bit run a 32 bit ubuntu program?

[06:50] <Starcraftmazter> hey guys. Is there a reason why Ubuntu doesnt pick up wireless connections on certain channels?
[06:50] <Myrtti> oh_noes: which 32-bit program
[06:50] <basanta> while i try to install package I get score ,what does this score mean?
[06:50] <paulSterio> how long does apt-file update take?
[06:50] <oh_noes> it's a vmware program called ovftool.  Theyve released a '32bit linux binary'.  But Im running 8.10 64bit
[06:50] <Seper> Starcraftmazter: Channels 11+ are illegal in some countries. That might have something to do with it. i dunno
[06:51] <Starcraftmazter> Seper: is there any way to change this behaviour?
[06:51] <Seper> Starcraftmazter: I'm not sure. I can only recommend you to google
[06:51] <Starcraftmazter> ok
[06:52] <homecable> how do i install tcl85 no threads
[06:53] <Seper> basanta: How are you installing? Using Synaptic?
[06:54] <Seper> homecable: I think it may install that way by default?
[06:55] <Seper> homecable: sudo apt-get install tcl8.5
[06:56] <nayten_> hey all-- looking for some makefile help with a cisco vpn client.  I can share the Makefile they had... I think its not getting something  the parameters are asking for.
[06:56] <CppIsWeird> my system just keeps randomly dieing completely. no shutdown, just power off period. How do i go about figuring out what is the cause?
[06:57] <nayten_> or if there's a specific support chat/forum I should head to let me know... figured someone here might have more exp with tarballs to give a quick look.
[06:58] <Witepa> I'm trying to write a command to replace an IP address in a file. I got sed to recognize what to replace, but I don't know how to tell it what to replace it with. The new IP address is defined in another stream/text file, how would I get sed to replace the old IP with the new IP using the substitute command?
[06:58] <Seper> CppIsWeird: That happened to me when my CPU was overheating
[06:58] <CppIsWeird> nvm, i disc
[06:59] <CppIsWeird> yeah seper, i JUST discovered that
[06:59] <CppIsWeird> looked in my clear case and a cable is blocking it
[06:59] <nayten_> I'm an idiot... google is my friend
[06:59] <basanta> Seper, no using aptitude
[06:59] <basanta> Seper, command
[07:00] <CppIsWeird> hope i didnt dammage the CPU, ubuntu keep a record anywhere by chance of cpu temps or max cpu temps?
[07:00] <Seper> basanta: Use pastebin.com to show us your output
[07:01] <Seper> Witepa: I've done that before, but it sounds like you're gonna need more than just sed
[07:01] <Seper> Witepa: cat echo and variables

[07:03] <Seper> Witepa: You will need to feed the output of the file/stream into a variable. Then give that variable to sed.
[07:03] <Witepa> Seper: this is what I have: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/
[07:04] <Witepa> Seper: how would I use cat, echo's, and variables with that?
[07:04] <Seper> SkyNetMaster: Does this only happen when the system is suspend/hibernated, or also from cold boot?
[07:04] <nayten_> SkynetMaster just reminded me of an issue I've been having-- on my Dell Inspiron 600m laptop, when I change the brightness with function keys, the system changes the brightness but wont accept anymore keyboard input for the rest of the session. anyone familiar with this?
[07:04] <quibbler> Witepa: link is empty
[07:05] <Seper> Witepa: Your link is bad
[07:05] <paul68> Witepa: you have the enter your data at pastebin
[07:05] <Witepa> oh, sorry

[07:05] <ZachFlem> hi folks, I have installed with 'cli' option and then installed xfce4 and some other apps from cmd line and am trying to get my wifi working, the network connects, but no internet access.
[07:06] <SkyNetMaster> nayten_, no, it works fine, I just need manually adjust brightness each time after logoff, which is annoying :)
[07:07] <Seper> Witepa: You need a command prior to that which puts the IP into a variable. Like so: $ cat IP.txt | read $var
[07:07] <nayten_> SkynetMaster: I was just pointing out my own issue as well, I realized I never found a solution.
[07:07] <SkyNetMaster> oh, that not good :S
[07:08] <Witepa> Seper: I want $var to come from a stream, how do I do that?
[07:08] <Witepa> oh
[07:08] <Witepa> nevermind
[07:09] <Witepa> Seper: I'm an idiot, haha
[07:09] <FloodBot1> Witepa: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:11] <Seper> Witepa: You will need to use " instead of ' for sed. $ sed -e "s/$regex/$var/"
[07:11] <HentaiXP> whats a good iso mounter gui tool
[07:11] <Seper> SkyNetMaster: You should try to find which/where scripts are run when your pc comes back on. I would find the location, and throw in my own script that turns up the brightness.
[07:11] <HentaiXP> like magicdisc for windows
[07:12] <maxagaz> how to get the list of groups of my lvm partitions
[07:12] <maxagaz> ?
[07:13] <SkyNetMaster> Seper, thank you. where do I start looking?
[07:13] <quibbler> HentaiXP: acetoneiso2
[07:14] <HentaiXP> quibbler: ok
[07:14] <Prophetus> hello .. what means this : uic: File generated with too old version of Qt Designer
[07:14] <Seper> SkyNetMaster: Perhaps google "linux OR ubuntu suspend scripts"..  I'm not really sure :\
[07:14] <ubuntu_> et.org
[07:15] <SkyNetMaster> Seper, thank you
[07:15] <jmadero> hi all, any time I edit my .asound file I get this error from alsa
[07:15] <jmadero> audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Could not open audio device for playback.
[07:15] <nayten> Seper: any suggestions for my situation? keyboard input gets deactivated when changing brightness from the function keys
[07:16] <Hancious> whoami
[07:16] <ZachFlem> is there anyone that might be able to shed some light on my problem? being wired is cramping my lifestyle)
[07:16] <Seper> nayten: Honestly, I would put a script on my desktop that I could click to turn up the brightness for me. Then just click it. :)
[07:17] <D00NGi4> Has anyone else had video tearing problems with an HDMI connection on an ATI on-board video chip?
[07:18] <Seper> nayten: Your problem sounds like it would require some kind of keyboard remapping or something complicated to fix. So personally I would stick to work arounds.
[07:19] <NemaSmisal> og
[07:19] <rww> Doonz: which driver are you using? fglrx or one of the free ones?
[07:19] <rww> D00NGi4: see above
[07:19] <rww> Doonz: sorry, mis-typed
[07:19] <D00NGi4> rww: Using fglrx, don't think free ati driver supports this chip
[07:19] <Seper> ZachFlem: Tough call.
[07:20] <Seper> ZachFlem: I would suggest trying to run from the LiveCD and test if it works ok with a regular setup.
[07:20] <rww> D00NGi4: disable compiz/desktop effects if you're using them, and set Option "TexturedVideo" "off" in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf's Device section. That worked for me (though I don't use HDMI).
[07:21] <tibrox> If I use 64bit ubuntu will there be packages which won't work on my new system?
[07:21] <D00NGi4> rww: compiz is disabled. When I put texturedvideo off in my xorg.conf, the X server crashes upon start
[07:22] <rww> D00NGi4: Well, that's problematic. No idea, then.
[07:22] <crdlb> D00NGi4: are you sure you got the configuration syntax right? Xorg is not tolerant of syntax errors
[07:22] <nayten> Seper: good call, I'll look into that for now. thats the only trouble Ive had with my 8.10 install
[07:23] <D00NGi4> crdlib: #ubuntu Option"TexturedVideo" "off"
[07:23] <silv3r_m00n> hi there
[07:23] <silv3r_m00n> I attached an lcd monitor to my laptop and configured as separate x view in nvidia settings
[07:24] <D00NGi4> crdlib: #ubuntu-># and tab between Option and "
[07:24] <silv3r_m00n> on laptop there are 4 desktops and 2 on lcd...how do I drag a window from laptop to lcd ?
[07:25] <pw-toxic> hi, i'm looking for a good latex editor to create a bachelor thesis in informatics.
[07:25] <Prophetus> Seper : do you have a suggestion for my problem ?
[07:25] <D00NGi4> crdlb: # Option "TexturedVideo" "off"   < from my xorg.conf
[07:26] <crdlb> D00NGi4: yeah, that's right :/
[07:26] <Seper> Prophetus: You probably need to upgrade your "QT designer"-dev package
[07:26] <pw-toxic> I have the following requirements to this program: must support custom hotkeys or at least very default hotkeys for anything (sections etc); a nice gnome-looking interface (like gedit); supports math syntax etc
[07:26] <pw-toxic> no wysiwyg
[07:26] <Blou_Aap> does someone know how to change font colour for GnoMenu ?
[07:26] <pw-toxic> any suggestions?
[07:26] <Blou_Aap> white is quite annoying
[07:26] <Prophetus> Seper : and how i do that ? .. i try with apt-get install qt
[07:26] <D00NGi4> crdlb: I'll try it again now, maybe compiz was still enabled when it was crashing?
[07:26] <Seper> Prophetus: Ubuntu might not have the latest development package for it in the repositories though.
[07:27] <Prophetus> seper : so i need to compile it ?
[07:27] <Seper> Prophetus: I'm not sure if upgrading with apt-get is possible or not. Obviously I would try that first though
[07:28] <Prophetus> Seper : ok :)
[07:28] <Witepa> Seper: when I echo $var, nothing comes out in that situation
[07:28] <SuperDefenderX> !foo
[07:29] <Seper> Witepa: Try to cat the file on to the console and see if it looks right
[07:29] <Witepa> here is what happens
[07:29] <Witepa> cat ~/Sites/temp.txt | read $var; echo $var
[07:29] <Witepa> and it just echos a blank line
[07:29] <tyler_d> do cat -e
[07:30] <Witepa> Seper: $cat ~/Sites/temp.txt | read $var; echo $var
[07:30] <Witepa> just outputs a blank line
[07:30] <tyler_d> as well do `. ~/.bash_rc`

[07:30] <cjae> what is the equivalent of sudo nvidia-settings with an ati card
[07:30] <tyler_d> |HSO|SadiQ: you have to modify your profile -- local
[07:31] <Seper> Witepa: What's the output of: $ cat ~/Sites/temp.txt
[07:31] <Seper> Witepa: Also tyler_d's suggestion might help. He said try "cat -e"
[07:31] <Witepa> Seper:
[07:31] <Witepa> $ cat ~/Sites/temp.txt

[07:31] <|HSO|SadiQ> tyler_d, where is that?
[07:32] <Witepa> Seper: cat -e did no difference
[07:32] <Seper> Witepa: Ya, I looked up -e. It doesn't appear to help
[07:32] <bobbie4_> I like the Ubuntu, Ubuntu is good on me
[07:32] <Seper> Witepa: hold on, let me test a bit on my system

[07:33] <balrog__> how do i get intrepid to recognize a bluetooth mouse beyond the current session?
[07:34] <Seper> Witepa: read var
[07:34] <Seper> Witepa: not read $var
[07:34] <tyler_d> Seper: as well he may need to reload his ~/.bash_rc or ~/.bash_profile by doing . ~/blah
[07:34] <Witepa> Seper: No difference
[07:34] <tyler_d> Witepa: `which var`
[07:34] <Witepa> Seper: cat ~/Sites/temp.txt | read var; echo $var             outputs nothing

[07:35] <pyrak> what filesystem should i use for a thumb drive?
[07:35] <tyler_d> pyrak: fat16 or 32 for win compatability and quick removal
[07:35] <tyler_d> pyrak: ntfs for compatability and increased storage
[07:35] <rww> pyrak: ext2 if you're only going to use it on linux, fat32 if you're going to use it on linux and windows, ntfs if you're going to use it on linux and windows and need support for files > 4GB
[07:36] <tyler_d> pyrak: ext3 for only windows
[07:36] <tyler_d> linux rathere ^
[07:36] <Prophetus> Seper : i solve the problem in this way :  sudo apt-get install qt3-dev-tools
[07:36] <silv3r_m00n> hi thre
[07:36] <Seper> Prophetus: congrats
[07:37] <tyler_d> Witepa: you aren't reading anything into var, so its not going to output anything
[07:37] <tyler_d> Witepa: sorry just read the syntax of your command
[07:37] <Witepa> tyler_d: how do I read something into var?
[07:37] <tyler_d> type `var=foo`
[07:38] <D00NGi4> rww: Textured video definitely crashes system, hangs on boot
[07:38] <tyler_d> alternately type `echo var=foo >> ~/test.sh && chmod +x ~/test.sh`
[07:38] <tyler_d> Witepa: then `./test.sh`
[07:38] <Witepa> tyler_d: okay, how do I pipe a stream into a var though?
[07:39] <tyler_d> Witepa: sorry, define pipe a stream?
[07:39] <Seper> Witepa: This is how I originally used it in my previous trials, this works: $ cat txt | while read var; do echo $var; done
[07:40] <tyler_d> Witepa: that will work, as long as their is input for var it will echo it... as soon as there isn't it will quit
[07:40] <Witepa> tyler_d: why do I have to put it in a while loop though?
[07:40] <tyler_d> Witepa: because you are using that as your test condition
[07:40] <tyler_d> Witepa: what exactly are you trying to accomplish if I might inquire
[07:40] <Seper> Witepa: I'm trying to see if it can be done without a while loop
[07:40] <tyler_d> ??
[07:41] <Seper> tyler_d: He wants to put a file with one line into a variable.
[07:42] <Witepa> tyler_d: I want to put a file or stream with one line into a variable and then substitute that into another stream using sed

[07:43] <tyler_d> sorry maxagaz df -h

[07:44] <Seper> Witepa: Yes, _Xenu solution will work

[07:45] <Witepa> tyler_d, _Xenu, Seper: okay, that works. Now, how do I use that variable in sed? For example, sed 's/<replacethis>/$var'
[07:45] <tyler_d> you would simply do.....
[07:45] <[saat_koneksi_le> jfdjrdi
[07:45] <paulSterio> http://dpaste.com/5064/
[07:45] <_Xenu> use double quotes

[07:55] <operationhavok1> hi does anyone use MUTT ?
[07:55] <Flannel> TML: see "escape" in man screen (put that in your screenrc, or ... uh, whatever it is that you can type screen commands in at runtime)
[07:55] <Flannel> !anyone | operationhavok1
[07:56] <Seper> TML: I would search google. A brief look through the manpage didn't seem to make it obvious.
[07:56] <Flannel> TML: You can hit ^a ^a to send a ^a to the interior program
[07:56] <operationhavok1> I need help with MUTT, I can't seem to get the IMAP set up :|
[07:56] <Flannel> operationhavok1: You might be better off asking in #mutt

[07:57] <TML> Flannel: Thanks...I'll try that. I know how to map them in .screenrc, it's just 'while connected' that is giving me fits, when I can't seem to send meta to it to get ":escape ..."
[07:57] <TML> Seper: Nice. Thank you.
[07:57] <paulSterio> _Xenu, I don't know what to do.
[07:57] <Flannel> TML: ^a ^a should send ^a to the program

[08:05] <lolhate> I need some helpp
[08:05] <lolhate> *help
[08:05] <paulSterio> tyler_d,  and I've installed the python-dev kit
[08:05] <Seper> ok
[08:05] <paulSterio> lolhate just ask your question
[08:05] <lolhate> when I try to install the graphics driver
[08:06] <lolhate> it says something about lock?
[08:06] <Madkiss_> hi folks.
[08:06] <lolhate> ah wait
[08:06] <lolhate> uhhh
[08:06] <lolhate> shit
[08:06] <FloodBot1> lolhate: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:06] <lolhate> sorry about that
[08:06] <Madkiss_> I am experiencing massive problems with latest nvidia-drivers in intrepid, basically, i can not start KDE because I see all different kinds of KDE applications crash with SIGSEV11
[08:06] <Madkiss_> is this a known problem and is a fix available for it?
[08:07] <dotblank> are you trying to install the nvidia driver using their installer while x is running?
[08:07] <Madkiss_> no, it's all packages stuff.
[08:07] <dotblank> just a guess
[08:07] <bobbie4_> I like the Ubuntu, Ubuntu is good on me
[08:07] <paulSterio> tyler_d, u got any idea how to fix that
[08:07] <Flannel> lolhate: You can only have one package manager open at a time.  So if you're say, doing upgrades, you can't be installing other stuff (which includes graphic drivers, etc)
[08:07] <tyler_d> paulSterio: apt-get install libc6-dev
[08:08] <crdlb> paulSterio: gcc is the compiler; just because it's failing does not mean it's failing for the same reason
[08:08] <balrog__> how do i setup intrepid to always connect to my bluetooth mouse upon bootup?  I can connect it using the wizard, but that doesn't stick after a reboot.
[08:08] <paulSterio> crdlb I am a total noob - so I have no idea why it's failing
[08:08] <lolhate> shit
[08:08] <tyler_d> paulSterio: do apt-get install libc6-dev and let me know after you try again
[08:08] <Flannel> lolhate: Also, please watch your language.
[08:08] <lolhate> I think I changed something from the system resolution
[08:08] <rww> Madkiss_: https://launchpad.net/+search?field.text=SIGSEV+kde+nvidia&field.actions.search=Search might be a good place to start. Looks like other people are having issues.
[08:08] <lolhate> and uh sorry

[08:08] <lolhate> and now when I click system
[08:08] <crdlb> paulSterio: dumb question, why don't you install python-reportlab from the repos?
[08:08] <lolhate> it opens up evolution

[08:09] <Madkiss_> rww: thanks for the link
[08:09] <paulSterio> tyler_d,  system already has that installed
[08:09] <lolhate> And, um, I cant change my resolution now
[08:09] <lolhate> help?
[08:09] <paulSterio> crdlb tried that as well

[08:10] <crdlb> paulSterio: no it didn't; installing python-reportlab doesn't require you to compile it
[08:10] <robd> Hey guys
[08:11] <tyler_d> paulSterio: cd to the source and tell me if there is a configure file in there
[08:11] <robd> Just wondering, is there an easy way to insert a new iptables rule in between existing rules w/o flushing and reloading everything?
[08:11] <tyler_d> paulSterio: your output would indicate something "non-standard" is going on
[08:11] <quibbler> balrog__: maybe this can help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=594624
[08:12] <crdlb> paulSterio: what exactly is the error you get from sudo apt-get install python-reportlab ?
[08:12] <robd> ahh, never mind
[08:12] <robd> this actually looks easy
[08:14] <balrog__> quibbler: thanks.  i didnt think hidd was available in intrepid, but bash tells me its at least installable.
[08:14] <paulSterio> yup I'm a fucking moron. crdlb - you rock the party.... why does easy_install crash though?
[08:14] <tyler_d> paulSterio: because easy_install is good for breaking stuff
[08:14] <Flannel> paulSterio: Please mind the language.  Thanks.
[08:14] <lolhate> umm
[08:15] <paulSterio> tyler_d I wasted 2 days trying to break this and all I needed to do was grab it from the repo
[08:15] <lolhate> that link kinda screwed me up
[08:15] <paulSterio> that was RETARDED!
[08:15] <lolhate> I had to restart my computer
[08:15] <tyler_d> paulSterio: be happy it works then ;) rejoice and enjoy beer
[08:15] <paulSterio> tyler_d, Yea!

[08:24] <lolhate> How do I make things look prettier? I remember I read somewhere how to, but I have forgotten.
[08:24] <Gnea> 'prettier'?
[08:24] <Pontif_La_Rouge> that's craptastic, konversation is an irc app?

[08:26] <lolhate> Where do I access that, tyler_d
[08:26] <Gnea> lolhate: and please, try to type everything out on one line, instead of pressing enter a lot - it makes the channel scroll a lot
[08:26] <tyler_d> lolhate: google
[08:26] <lolhate> Oh, I am sorry, Gnea
[08:26] <Pontif_La_Rouge> also, I'm having problems getting my harddrive working
[08:26] <Gnea> !compiz | lolhate
[08:26] <Pepelargo> Suddenly Firefox, LourpPaint , and other applications started to work by default in full screen mode, and I have to switch them manually to normal view..this is very anoying, anybode know anything about this???
[08:27] <tyler_d> Gnea:  just goes behind handing out the links ;)
[08:27] <fatih> hp1020 laserjet yazıcı yardımı kimden alabilirm
[08:27] <Gnea> tyler_d: ? :)
[08:27] <tyler_d> Pepelargo: attempt bouncing... do a force-shutdown of the offending app and try starting it again
[08:28] <suzao> HI, could anyone help me with changing my graphics resolution? Im using nvidia 7600gs (if not misteaken) on ubuntu 8.10 with nvidia drivers installed.
[08:29] <Seper> dotblank: none
[08:29] <Pepelargo> tyler_d, well I restarted the session a couple of times so far (this started last week), but for exampel Firefox just sticks on starting on full wsize mode, and I have to manually ckick on F11 twice to get the normal view...The only thing I do is to follow the Ubuntu frequently updates
[08:29] <tyler_d> suzao: sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings
[08:29] <suzao> Currently graphics are running at 1024x768, need to change to 1280x1024 but there is no option for that in resolution.
[08:29] <tyler_d> suzao: then sudo nvidia-settings and see whats up
[08:30] <tyler_d> Pepelargo: from term do a ps -ef | grep -i compiz
[08:30] <suzao> tyler_d: I see nvidia setings it gives me modes to choose from but not the one i need
[08:30] <Pontifex> could someone help me get me harddrive working?
[08:30] <Pepelargo> tyler_d, done
[08:30] <tyler_d> Pepelargo: I haven't heard of this before, however I think if you have compiz it may be the offending app
[08:30] <suzao> pontifex: whats wrong with your hd?
[08:30] <suzao> pontifex: symptoms?
[08:31] <Pontifex> my external won't connect correctly
[08:31] <tyler_d> Pepelargo: is compiz running?
[08:31] <Pontifex> one moment suzao
[08:31] <Pepelargo> tyler_d, yes it is, but it since I installed intrepid months ago, and this jus tstarted last week
[08:31] <Pepelargo> tyler_d, *it was
[08:32] <tyler_d> Pepelargo: do you have kde-desktop installed?
[08:32] <treboko> "problem - cant get the caps showing pictures. Tried by desktop cube and cube reflections. When picked picture from /usr/share/compiz everything is ok. When picked picture (png), from other place, no matter if only name or full path, it shows only default colour, no picture. Help?" tried on#compiz but only hints i got was 'resave with gimp' so im trying my luck here. Anyone supposed to know?
[08:33] <ikonia> treboko: the compiz guys understand the caps better than anyone
[08:33] <suzao> tyler_d: is there a line in xorg.conf i can edit.. specifically.. i need some help with it as it doesnt seem to be changing
[08:33] <tyler_d> Pepelargo: ahh, so you need to modify the compiz settings, I don't have it installed, however this may help.... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1049107
[08:33] <ikonia> treboko: I'd suggest trying to put your problem images in /usr/share/compiz to see if they are picked up, that way you know if there is a problem with compiz or the actual image
[08:34] <suzao> tyler_d: im using AvidAV 19 inch 4:3 monitor.
[08:34] <Pepelargo> tyler_d, ha ha ha you got it!
[08:34] <Pepelargo> tyler_d, but I still wonder why this just starts to happen suddenly"
[08:34] <tyler_d> suzao:  sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.bak && gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:35] <tyler_d> Pepelargo: I love my answer for this one... things usually work until they break ;)
[08:35] <suzao> tyler_d: when trying to save config for higher res from nvidia settings it says something like "failed to parse to xorg.conf"
[08:35] <Pepelargo> tyler_d, in fact I am not very happy with ubuntu about this matter, things just changes alone, the other day I just wanted to uninstall Evoulution, and the system uninstalled also ubuntu-desktop, and I lost all my desktop, so I had to reinstall eveything again...
[08:35] <ikonia> treboko: does that make sense to you ?
[08:35] <suzao> tyler_d: ok, i see my xorg.conf file in gedit.
[08:35] <treboko> yeah, im trying right now
[08:36] <suzao> tyler_d: pastebin?
[08:36] <tyler_d> suzao: so you need to find the screen section and modify it acordingly... admitidly this isn't my forte however its relatively simple
[08:36] <tyler_d> suzao: find the screen, copy an existing resolution and add it in there
[08:36] <suzao> tyler_d:http://pastebin.com/m48a18dc5
[08:37] <treboko> oh, it doesnt show it anyway
[08:37] <suzao> ikonia: i already added extra resolution parameters in xorg.conf on 8.10 but it makes no new option in res menu on gnome?
[08:37] <treboko> even from /usr/share/compiz
[08:37] <ikonia> suzao: ?
[08:37] <Gideon> morning
[08:38] <ikonia> treboko: ok - so your image is the problem
[08:38] <Gideon> i need a little advice on EULA's and LAW :)
[08:38] <ikonia> treboko: I suggest you talk to the compiz/gimp people
[08:38] <ikonia> Gideon: this is ubuntu support only plese

[08:38] <anr78> anyone running Ubuntu on the latest MacBook Pro?
[08:38] <suzao> ikonia: im trying to get higher res on 8.10
[08:38] <ikonia> Gideon: don't know
[08:38] <tyler_d> suzao: dpkg -reconfigure xserver-xorg

[08:39] <suzao> tyler_d: dpkg-reconfigure gives me options but not for gfx only keyboard
[08:39] <Gideon> and the interwebs has come up dry
[08:39] <egycoder90> hello , i need help plz

[08:41] <egycoder90> sorry 4 my english :(
[08:41] <suzao> ikonia: i remember a simple solution.. adding the extra resolutions in conf.. but now that doesnt seem to work any more.
[08:41] <ikonia> tyler_d: how does she get graphics without xorg ?
[08:42] <ikonia> error404notfound: thats all you need
[08:42] <tyler_d> ikonia: messed mine up at the office, thats how I reconfigured it... renamed it and bounced

[08:45] <egycoder90> can any body tell me about this problem appearing while trying to boot from ubuntu cd [ Bios Bug #81 ]

[08:46] <ikonia> egycoder90: then as it appears to be a bug with this notebooks bios - contact your bios vendor

[08:48] <vulinhpc> hihi
[08:49] <vulinhpc> how are you everybody ?
[08:49] <suzao> ikonia: is there any easy way to add 1280x1024? I dont really know how with 8.10 ... diddnt see any guides
[08:49] <ikonia> suzao: I've not been looking at your problem, check the nvidia drivers are enabled and that your xorg.conf is set to use them
[08:49] <egycoder90> ikonia : thanks 4 u rtime
[08:50] <timothy> I think I may have found a problem with network manager on jaunty
[08:50] <ikonia> timothy: then discuss in #ubuntu+1 and log a bug
[08:50] <timothy> thanks
[08:51] <timothy> didn't know where to ask about it
[08:52] <suzao> ikonia: the nvidia drivers are enabled.. but it says.. "a different version of this driver is in use" (presumably when i installed through the hardware manager it installed a newer driver from nvidia than it could detect."
[08:52] <Malacius> hi
[08:52] <ikonia> suzao: right so you've broke your install by installing nvidia drivers from nvidia.com
[08:52] <ikonia> suzao: why did you install kernel modules from nvidia.com ?
[08:53] <Malacius> hi ;-/
[08:53] <suzao> ikonia: i did not.. i just assume thats where ubuntu gets them from.
[08:53] <quibbler> !welcome | Malacius
[08:53] <Malacius> i know
[08:53] <suzao> ikonia: i used the hardware driver install feature on 8.10.. it isntalled the driver.. then my screen got upgraded from 800x600 to 1024x768 but i still dont see any option for 1280x1024
[08:54] <ikonia> suzao: I find it hard to accept that hardware manager has enabled 2 versions of the hardware drivers
[08:54] <ikonia> suzao: the only way two could be available is if you installed a package outside of the hardware drivers interface
[08:54] <Sake> Hey, anyone updated their linux kernel and got an error that required a rollback?
[08:54] <suzao> ikonia: I installed this 24 hours ago.. first time i thought it was hanging.. then.. it installed a second time.. it showed that it was installing.
[08:54] <ikonia> Sake: from what version to what version, and what error
[08:54] <suzao> ikonia: how can i make it right?
[08:55] <Sake> i went from v12 to 13 i386
[08:55] <ikonia> suzao: I'd remove all the nvidia drivers from the package mnger - reboot using the vesa driver
[08:55] <Sake> and had to use a youtube vid to fix ut
[08:55] <ikonia> suzao: exactly what versions please
[08:55] <ikonia> suzao: sorr - not you
[08:55] <ikonia> Sake: exactly which versions please
[08:55] <suzao> ikonia: where do i check versions?
[08:55] <Sake> 1 sec
[08:55] <suzao> ikonia: i clicked on activate. . now it says i need to reboot.
[08:55] <suzao> ikonia: download time was zero
[08:55] <ikonia> suzao: because they are already downloaded
[08:56] <suzao> ikonia: it seems to think it has the right drivers..
[08:56] <Sake> I forgot what the command was to show the lates one
[08:56] <Sake> how do I talk at someone?
[08:56] <suzao> how do i enable or revert to default after uninstalling nvidia?
[08:56] <ikonia> suzao: just show me "uname -a" please
[08:56] <Sake> ok
[08:56] <ikonia> suzao: it will fall back to safe mode if you remove all the nvidia drivers

[09:01] <h_torque> hellas! after playing around with plymouth vesafb (built-in) stopped working (black screen during boot, black screen when switching to terminals). any idea where I should look to get this fixed?
[09:02] <ikonia> HentaiXP: plymouth vesafb ?
[09:02] <ikonia> HentaiXP: sorry
[09:02] <ikonia> h_torque:  plymouth vesafb ?
[09:02] <ikonia> h_torque: what is plymouth vesafb ?
[09:02] <Sake> ikona what did you want?
[09:02] <prince_jammys> after playing with plymouth, comma, vesafb broke
[09:03] <ikonia> prince_jammys: what's plmouth ?
[09:03] <ikonia> plymouth
[09:03] <h_torque> http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Plymouth
[09:03] <ikonia> Sake: nothing more from you
[09:03] <prince_jammys> no idea, but i assume that's what he meant
[09:04] <h_torque> yes, sorry, my punctuation sucks
[09:04] <ikonia> h_torque: guess it depends what you've done - as to how to fix it
[09:05] <fatih> hplaserjet1020 isn't printing solve?
[09:05] <h_torque> i just compiled the sources and installed it (i first installed it via the dev's PPA and it worked fine)
[09:05] <gate> ikonia: I could figure that output out myself
[09:05] <gate> thank you
[09:05] <gate> :-)
[09:06] <h_torque> thing is, vesafb is broken now and i have no idea what have been changed by installing plymouth manually
[09:06] <prince_jammys> h_torque: this Plymouth thing looks scary :)
[09:06] <prince_jammys> from the page you pasted
[09:06] <fatih> hplip3.9.2run was installed but not print
[09:07] <gate> ikonia: what does the uname -m mean? Is it what the kernel is compiled for?
[09:07] <ikonia> h_torque: at what point do you try to start plymouth, and how
[09:07] <h_torque> just another try to be more bling bling :D
[09:07] <ikonia> gate: it shows the arch
[09:07] <gate> i686
[09:07] <gate> 32 bit
[09:08] <h_torque> ikonia: right now i don't want to start plymouth, i totally removed all installed files, recreated the ramdisk and now only want my vesafb back
[09:09] <ikonia> h_torque: how you start/set it up can maybe help determain what you've done and how to undo it
[09:09] <ikonia> h_torque: that's why I'm asking
[09:10] <h_torque> i just did the usual ./configure, make, make install - the settings in the makefile looked fine
[09:10] <armedking> is there any way i can make an archive or some bogus file and fill it with useless data?
[09:10] <max82fr> hi there
[09:10] <max82fr> I need help for using my ipod with ubuntu please
[09:10] <ikonia> h_torque: that's just installing it, not how you configured it
[09:10] <krishnan> I have got a new broadband connection just now. I connected it to my netgear wireless router, to which my laptop, server and desktops are connected. the LAN ip addr are 10.0.0.2 instead of 192.168.1.2. This was nt so with my old ISP. please help me out. however the internet is working fine
[09:10] <leonardo> hello guys
[09:11] <gate> ikonia: how do I see the ubuntu version?
[09:11] <max82fr> it s an ipod touch
[09:11] <ikonia> gate: lsb_release -a
[09:11] <leonardo> I need to test my page from outside of my net
[09:11] <ZachFlem> is "/dev/firmware" where my bcm43xx firmware should live?
[09:11] <prince_jammys> !usplash | h_torque : maybe something here for you
[09:11] <leonardo> opensim.servehttp.com (serve ..no server)
[09:11] <ikonia> leonardo: please don't post that sort of thing here
[09:12] <max82fr> I m very new to ubuntu and i need help please
[09:12] <krishnan> ikonia: I have got a new broadband connection just now. I connected it to my netgear wireless router, to which my laptop, server and desktops are connected. the LAN ip addr are 10.0.0.2 instead of 192.168.1.2.

[09:12] <h_torque> ubottu: thanks, but usplash works fine
[09:12] <tku> moin
[09:12] <ikonia> krishnan: not sure wht your asking
[09:12] <leonardo> ikonia,sorry about that, but  I nee to know if somebody can see it ;)
[09:13] <ikonia> krishnan: it looks like your getting dhcp from a new device on a new private address range, it's not a problem
[09:13] <max82fr> Can anyone help me with my ipod touch please?
[09:13] <prince_jammys> h_torque: i'd still try that
[09:13] <ikonia> krishnan: 10. and 192 re just common private address ranges
[09:13] <leonardo> ikonia, can you see this page?
[09:13] <ikonia> leonardo: I'm not looking
[09:14] <krishnan> ikonia: but the server on which i hosted the website is not viewable
[09:14] <leonardo> may I send you the page in private, just to test it please
[09:14] <ikonia> krishnan: probably because your port forwarding is no setup on your new router
[09:14] <ikonia> leonardo: no thanks
[09:14] <max82fr> Can anyone help me please?
[09:15] <h_torque> ikonia: i didn't manually configure it so i guess it used the standard configuration. it's my own fault i know... the wiki page clearly states that plymouth is highly integrated in the distribution and nothing you just compile and install. anyways, it's just a testing machine.
[09:15] <ikonia> h_torque: crash and burn it then
[09:15] <krishnan> ikonia: it is setup
[09:15] <ZachFlem> how can i find out what version of the kernel i have installed?
[09:15] <ikonia> krishnan: well it must be setup to point to the old 192 address
[09:15] <ikonia> ZachFlem: uname -a

[09:17] <ikonia> krishnan: ok - so you've got conflicting ip ranges

[09:17] <CppIsWeird> when trying to copy files to an ntfs hard disk i get "Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character" From what I have been able to gather from my research is that this is a result of ntfs having some issue with supporting locales properly or something. This data came from a windows drive, so I know ntfs can support these files names. How can i get linux to copy these files properly?
[09:18] <krishnan> ikonia: yes
[09:18] <max82fr> why is no one helping me?
[09:18] <rww> !patience | max82fr
[09:18] <ikonia> Kitar|st: well you need to get the IP info from 1 source, either the router or the modem, OR set them both to use the same network
[09:18] <krishnan> ikonia: what can be done now?
[09:18] <ikonia> krishnan: well you need to get the IP info from 1 source, either the router or the modem, OR set them both to use the same network
[09:18] <xrand> hi there,I'm looking for a simple good tutorial for kermit or is there any other alternative for kermit ?
[09:19] <ikonia> krishnan: my advice would be to disable dhcp on one device and only get dhcp info from the modem
[09:19] <krishnan> ikonia i will try that
[09:20]  * ZachFlem is frustrated!
[09:20] <ikonia> ZachFlem: then ask a question

[09:24] <ikonia> Frantic: it's fake
[09:24] <ikonia> Frantic: your LSI pci card may not be though
[09:25] <ziroday> djdarkman: see http://sourceforge.net/projects/mac4lin and http://www.howtoforge.com/mac4lin_make_linux_look_like_a_mac

[09:25] <ZachFlem> my wifi connects to the network, but i don't have any internet connection. Firmware is in the dir (/lib/firmware). Can anyone offer anymore suggestions?
[09:25] <Frantic> ikonia: I don't have the pci card, I want a sata raid, and the mobo manual actually says that the PCI card is only for SAS raid and that the mobo should be used for SATA raid
[09:25] <ikonia> ZachFlem: is it getting an IP address vid dhcp
[09:26] <Frantic> ikonia: still sure it's fake raid?
[09:26] <ZachFlem> yes it is.
[09:26] <Prima_zz> h
[09:26] <Prima_zz> áëÿ.. íå òî
[09:26] <ikonia> Frantic: yup
[09:27] <ziroday> Prima_zz: is there something we can help you with?

[09:27] <ikonia> Frantic: because it's not listing a supported raid controller
[09:27] <djdarkman> the correct answere was epidermis(got it on another channel), but thanks for trying :)

[09:28] <ikonia> Prima_zz: stop please
[09:28] <ziroday> mejobloggs: you need to add your cd as a repo in /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:28] <Frantic> ikonia: linux not supported means they dont offer tech support I guess :)
[09:28] <ikonia> Frantic: no - you guessed wrong
[09:29] <sdf2> are there any guide how to make it work? Cause i'M having weird things in it...
[09:29] <ikonia> Frantic: it's a fake raid board, which is why it's not supported on linux

[09:41] <ikonia> Prima_zz: nokia phone resets are not ubuntu operating system
[09:41] <ikonia> Prima_zz: therefore please don't ask here
[09:41] <Prima_zz> omg
[09:41] <optiks> "no devices detected" sorry

[09:53] <KazaLite> hi all....im new to ubuntu and migrating from windows.....i needed wireshark in ubuntu so i run apt-get install wireshark....everything went fine and wireshark is installed. now when i launch wireshark, it does not show any network intrerface on my computer ..... :(
[09:53] <rww> KazaLite: try gksudo wireshark
[09:54] <exon> hello got a mail question  my freind try to mail with evolution ....he can recieve  mails but not send his pc is a dual boot system and under windows everything works fine .....i used his identity and password login etc exactly same  as he did and here no problems .......if he tries to send mail  it says host not found ...could there be a port locked and how can i check it  and open it .....i did a standard  ubuntu install on his pc
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> exon: get him to check smtp settings
[09:55] <exon> i did
[09:55] <KazaLite> i see .... so i need to be root to run and use all features of wireshark
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> exon: what email provider does s/he use?
[09:55] <exon> skynet
[09:55] <rww> KazaLite: yeah. It needs administrative privilages to attach to interfaces
[09:56] <exon> relay.skynet.be
[09:56] <KazaLite> cool
[09:56] <KazaLite> but gksudo sucks.......simply using sudo wireshark makes it work
[09:57] <exon> i also have a skynet provider  and i checked it and its ok
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> exon: is his outgooing server: relay.skynet.be
[09:57] <rww> !gksudo | KazaLite
[09:57] <exon> yes
[09:58] <KazaLite> oh i see
[09:59] <ActionParsnip> exon: can he run: telnet relay.skynet.be 25
[09:59] <ActionParsnip> exon: if he gets connected tell him to type HELO and hit enter (NOT HELLO)
[10:00] <ActionParsnip> exon: http://www.sky.net.uk/support/helpyourself.php?id=4
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> exon: smtp.skynet.co.uk (outgoing)
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> try that
[10:01] <KazaLite> onething.....gksudo sucks if i run wireshark......but kdesu makes wireshark run nicely
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> KazaLite: are you running kde or gnome?
[10:02] <error404notfound> for a backup partition which filesystem is better? xfs or reiserfs? backup contains a mix of large files such as iso, .tar.gz and small files like oo.o or even plain text files..
[10:02] <exon> but i have also a skynet connection   and on my other  pc i filled in his  login password etc  and here it works fine
[10:02] <KazaLite> but did not know earlier that we need to be careful when running graphical applications
[10:02] <KazaLite> do not know:( i just installed ubuntu....do not know whether it is kde or gnome
[10:02] <ActionParsnip> KazaLite: well yeah, you need to be careful with any app running with sudo /kdesudo
[10:02] <Myrtti> KazaLite: is your ubuntu "brown" or "blue"?
[10:03] <travian_geek> Is there an iptable command to list all chain names??????
[10:03] <KazaLite> hehehe.........brown:P
[10:03] <ActionParsnip> exon: you could export your account setting to a file to have him import it, then  simply mofify the username and password
[10:03]  * KazaLite felt embarrased:P
[10:03] <Myrtti> KazaLite: then you're on gnome :-)
[10:04] <neil_d> how can I find out what module was loaded to access eth0?
[10:04] <ActionParsnip> exon: if he can connect to the mail server with telnet then you security shouldnt be an issue
[10:04] <KazaLite> but why for wireshark gksudo sucks and kdesu works for me
[10:04] <sprinkmeier_> error404notfound, disk is cheap. I'd go xfs (mostly because I've used it a little and am comfortable with it). ext4?
[10:04] <ActionParsnip> neil_d: sudo lshw -C network
[10:04] <rww> KazaLite: elaborate on "sucks"?
[10:04] <max82fr> any help with an ipod touch please??
[10:05] <ActionParsnip> KazaLite: if it works, don't knock it
[10:05] <ActionParsnip> max82fr: in what sense, does it not turn on? has it turned into a penguin?
[10:05] <KazaLite> if i select the interface on which i need to capture traffic......application gets stuck << this is the case if i launch wireshark from shell using gksudo
[10:06] <max82fr> it wouldn t mount
[10:06] <Vigo> Hello. what is the package that is like WYSIWG editor, o what is suggested for a for forgetful user?
[10:06] <KazaLite> and i do not experience such thing when i use kdesu instead of gksudo
[10:06] <ActionParsnip> !ipod | max82fr
[10:06] <max82fr> i have read the docs but doesn t work
[10:06] <ActionParsnip> Vigo: nano is very wysiwyg
[10:06] <neil_d> ActionParsnip: thanks
[10:07] <ActionParsnip> max82fr: does the device show up in: sudo fdisk -l
[10:07] <rww> KazaLite: Does https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wireshark/+bug/321943 sound like your problemAAAAAA?
[10:07] <Vigo> Thank you
[10:07] <max82fr> im really new
[10:07] <max82fr> wat?
[10:07] <rww> KazaLite: I know there's no fix there, I'm just wondering.
[10:08] <max82fr> no it doesn t
[10:09] <ActionParsnip> max82fr: its a terminal command
[10:09] <max82fr> done that
[10:09] <max82fr> it s not in the list
[10:09] <KazaLite> yeah...this is what im experiencing post
[10:09] <ActionParsnip> max82fr: ok, unplug the thing, wait 10 seconds, plug it back in, wait 10 seconds.
[10:10] <ActionParsnip> max82fr: if it doesnt detect then run: dmesg | tail
[10:10] <KazaLite> post a reply that run wireshark using kdesu and there will be not problem;)
[10:10] <suzao> hi, still struggling with GFX
[10:10] <max82fr> are u happy to go through with me to help me fix it?
[10:11] <max82fr> still not in the list
[10:11] <exon> i first tried the telnet function myself  is this what need to be seen
[10:11] <ActionParsnip> max82fr: that will pretty much tell you whats what, does ipod touch have a setting for disk mode?
[10:11] <exon> Connected to relay.skynet.be.
[10:11] <exon> Escape character is '^]'.
[10:11] <exon> 220 relay.skynet.be ESMTP

[10:11] <FloodBot1> exon: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:11] <ActionParsnip> max82fr: ok run the dmesg command
[10:11] <max82fr> hang on , how?
[10:11] <ActionParsnip> exon: ok so we know the server is ok

[10:22] <cooldduuudde> sdf2: then go to applications>add/remove search for compiz, select it and click apply
[10:22] <fosco_> optiks: that panel has nothing special, what do you exactly want?

[10:24] <ikonia> Sivam: just open the package manager, search for kerberos and install the packages you need
[10:24] <optiks> just the panel, fosco
[10:24] <ActionParsnip> Milkeh: sudo apt-get remove <package>
[10:24] <optiks> do i need to install anything?
[10:24] <ActionParsnip> Milkeh: to remove the settings add --purge after the word install
[10:25] <cooldduuudde> sdf2: you should select Advanced Desktop Effects Settings (ccsm)
[10:25] <quibbler> optiks: do you mean the panel at the bottom with all the icons?
[10:25] <fosco_> optiks: the upper or bottom panel?
[10:25] <optiks> the bottom, sorry

[10:26] <optiks> thanks
[10:26] <sdf2> cooldduuudde: it says compiz setup tool for kde
[10:26] <sdf2> i use gnome
[10:26] <cooldduuudde> sdf2: don't install that one
[10:26] <ActionParsnip> max82fr: are you a member of the fuse group?
[10:26] <mib_semslie> I seem to have lost my gconf2 configuration which is preventing gnome from starting. The error messages have flashed by, but essentially said that gnome-sanity-check failed. When I drop to a terminal and run gnome-sanity-check myself the error it produces is that /etc/gconf/2/path is missing.
[10:26] <cooldduuudde> sdf2: select the one i told you
[10:27] <max82fr> u didn t respond to my question?
[10:27] <mib_semslie> Any idea how I can regenerate that config file?
[10:27] <sdf2> cooldduuudde: i typed in compiz into the search
[10:27] <cooldduuudde> !info ccsm
[10:27] <cooldduuudde> sdf2: did you get 6 results?
[10:27] <Frantic> ActionParsnip: I have seen those but didn't help, my problem is that grub doesn't recognize my boot partition which is a ext3 fs on a raid1 volume
[10:27] <sdf2> cooldduuudde: i only get 1 result
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> !info compizconfig-settings-manager
[10:28] <sim-value_> omg is ubuntuforums cone ?
[10:28] <Frantic> ActionParsnip: for example, find /grub/menu.lst returns file not found :(
[10:28] <sonium> I just did "mv somefile ~/. " where is it now?
[10:28] <mib_semslie> I was thinking I could either purge whichever package owns that config file and install it, or just upgrade to jaunty :)
[10:28] <sdf2> cooldduuudde: desktop effect manager: kde ... and i only see this result
[10:28] <exon> sorry i did get phone call
[10:28] <mib_semslie> but some advice would be appreciated
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> Frantic: im unsure, i always use harware raid
[10:28] <cooldduuudde> sdf2: did you update the package list?
[10:28] <Abracadabra> hello
[10:29] <Abracadabra> is there a commad similar to apt-get or apt-cache that would list all currently installed applications ?
[10:29] <Frantic> can someone who knows some stuff about software raid please help me install grub under software raid?
[10:29] <Abracadabra> *command
[10:29] <exon> @ ActionParsnip : he filled in telnet relay.skynet.be 25 but nothing happens
[10:29] <cooldduuudde> sdf2: at the top there is 'show:'. select All available applications from there
[10:29] <rww> sonium: Your home directory, /home/yourusername/
[10:29] <sdf2> cooldduuudde: i don't think

[10:29] <sonium> sry I meant mv ~./

[10:30] <rww> sonium: how about you double-check that command and let us know.
[10:31] <quibbler> max82fr: no

[10:32] <cooldduuudde> sdf2: yeah now you can go to system>preferences>Compiz Setting manager
[10:32] <mib_semslie> Is there a way to purge a package and reinstall it without removing packaged that depend on it?
[10:32] <fosco_> mib_semslie: sudo aptitude reinstall package
[10:32] <quibbler> max82fr: do not pm me
[10:32] <sonium> mkdir test
[10:32] <sonium> mv test ~./
[10:32] <rww> sonium: it's renamed to ~. in the current directory
[10:32] <max82fr> well here then?
[10:33] <sonium> oh. thx
[10:33] <sonium> here it is
[10:33] <ish2> rww, someone should put that in the topic, i had no idea that channel existed
[10:33] <max82fr> can u help me??
[10:33] <mib_semslie> fosco_: that doesn't seem to regenerate the config files though - is there an option for that?
[10:33] <Gjangir> hi
[10:33] <Gjangir> i am arjun
[10:33] <fosco_> mib_semslie: maybe sudo dpkg-reconfigure package
[10:33] <rww> ish2: That might help. You could suggest it in #ubuntu-ops, maybe
[10:33] <quibbler> max82fr: did you do: sudo ipod-touch-mount
[10:34] <max82fr> yep all of it
[10:34] <max82fr> nothing worked
[10:34] <max82fr> quibbler will u help me starting again cause im loosing it
[10:35] <mib_semslie> fosco_: that tells me it is "not replacing deleted config file /etc/gconf/2/path" :P
[10:35] <quibbler> max82fr: then i can't help.....
[10:35] <max82fr> why?
[10:35] <mib_semslie> fosco_: thats why I think I need a purge and reinstall - but because its gconf I dont want to reinstall everything on my system!
[10:36] <max82fr> Oh my god. so many people bought ipods, surely someone here can help me setting it up
[10:36] <sdf2> cooldduuudde: actually how is this 3d cube working?
[10:36] <Frantic> can someone please help me install grub under software raid?
[10:36] <quibbler> max82fr: all what was told you by ActionParsnip should be enough...if it's not..i'm also out of ideas
[10:36] <cooldduuudde> sdf2: did you enable it?
[10:36] <sim-value> in compiz settings manager select desktop cube
[10:37] <max82fr> do u have an ipod touch?
[10:37] <sim-value> and Turn cube
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> max82fr: no im not trying to mount via wifi. are you trying to connect the device via bluetooth or somesuch?
[10:37] <sdf2> cooldduudde: yes
[10:37] <sim-value>  *Rotate Cube
[10:37] <quibbler> max82fr: maybe try in the ubuntu forums
[10:37] <max82fr> no no no
[10:37] <max82fr> ok let s do it actionparsnip
[10:37] <sdf2> cooldduuudde: i keep pressing, the combination, and nothing happens
[10:37] <quibbler> max82fr: no i don't

[10:37] <ActionParsnip> max82fr: are you connecting the device via usb or bluetooth?

[10:38] <max82fr> then?
[10:38] <sim-value> it should turn
[10:38] <sim-value> did you enable rotate cube ?
[10:38] <mib_semslie> seems like dpkg --force-depends might be the solution
[10:38] <ActionParsnip> max82fr: try turning it of and on whle the cable is connected maybe
[10:38] <sdf2> coolddduuudde: and how is like a 3d cube appearing on the svreen? :P

[10:49] <ActionParsnip> max82fr: like i already said, im not an apple sheep so i cant advise without the aid of the web
[10:50] <ikonia> ActionParsnip: if your installing to a different drive would it not be better to do a native install to that second drive ?
[10:50] <ikonia> ActionParsnip: sory
[10:50] <ikonia> sorry
[10:50] <ikonia> adantan_alex:  if your installing to a different drive would it not be better to do a native install to that second drive ?
[10:50] <max82fr> im lost
[10:50] <sdf2> should i always install every, update what is available for my linux?
[10:50] <sim-value> Did you the last time using it in windows unmount it properly ?
[10:50] <adantan_alex> no, i already got windows on it
[10:50] <sim-value> jep
[10:50] <max82fr> gonna get rid of ubuntu if i can t do anything with it
[10:50] <ActionParsnip> ikonia: ;)
[10:50] <Cirt> hiya, anyone here good with ffmpeg2theora ? or is there a more specific channel for that? :)
[10:51] <sdf2> i  managed to get everything working max82fr
[10:51] <BlaBlax> ciao
[10:51] <ikonia> max82fr: ok, you need to just delete teh partition and replace the boot loader with windows boot loader to remove
[10:51] <sim-value> max: lool
[10:51] <ikonia> max82fr: remember, if you remove the ubuntu partition and don't put the windows boot loader back on, your system won't boot
[10:51] <Milkeh> anybody know the command to view running processes?
[10:51] <Cirt> video and audio are out of sync after I converted from FLV :(
[10:51] <ikonia> Milkeh: ps -ef
[10:51] <Cirt> not sure what command to try and fix it
[10:51] <adantan_alex> im going to try installing ubuntu on my different drive on windows and inside windows
[10:52] <Milkeh> ikonia, thanks
[10:52] <sdf2> i don't recommend dual boot windows linux
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> max82fr: i dont own an ipod of any kinda as i think they are a huge ripoff, so literally the only way i can advise is to give you links
[10:52] <Cirt> thoughts? :(
[10:52] <rww> sdf2: a large number of people do. Over wubi, anyway.
[10:52] <cooldduuudde> sdf2: i don't agree
[10:52] <adantan_alex> i have windows vista and windows 7, if i install ubuntu inside windows will that add ubuntu to the boot loader?
[10:52] <max82fr> ActionParsnip i appreciate, it s just a real tantrum
[10:52] <rai> how to install flash player
[10:52] <max82fr> thanks for all ur help
[10:52] <rww> adantan_alex: what do you mean by "inside windows"?
[10:53] <rww> rai: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> rai: 64bit or 32bit linux?
[10:53] <BlaBlax> list!
[10:53] <adantan_alex> with the new versions of ubuntu you can install it inside windows
[10:53] <rai> 32 bit
[10:53] <adantan_alex> as a application
[10:53] <ikonia> adantan_alex: wubi I assume you mean
[10:53] <adantan_alex> not sure..
[10:53] <rww> adantan_alex: okay, so you mean wubi. Resize your Windows partition and make a Linux one. Wubi can be problematic.
[10:53] <adantan_alex> any ways.. im going to try
[10:53] <rai> ﻿ActionParsnip:32 bit
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> rai: rww's comand is what you need then

[10:57] <suzao> ikonia: could you help me edit the relevant sections of xorg.conf?
[10:57] <ikonia> suzao: sorry no

[10:58] <rai> ok. thank you
[10:58] <NativeAngels> can anyone tell me with a binddns server how to make a local domain public
[10:58] <ikonia> NativeAngels: you need multiple dns servers, or a static IP connection
[10:58] <Caesi> hi, can anyone help me with setting a mnt point for my ipod touch?
[10:58] <Caesi> thankx
[10:58] <lwizardl> hi
[10:58] <ikonia> NativeAngels: those servers need to be registered with the domain registrar, then setup to host dns records
[10:59] <lwizardl> anyone here know alot about U3 drives?
[10:59] <ActionParsnip> Caesi: sudo mkdir /media/ipod
[10:59] <erUSUL> !ipod | Caesi
[10:59] <error404notfound> at bootup I get: http://pastebin.com/m7df480d2 is this dangerous? what does it mean?
[10:59] <Caesi> ActionParsnip: have already done that
[10:59] <Caesi> erUSUL: k thanks
[10:59] <ActionParsnip> Caesi: then mount it there as you wish, you should find it automounts
[11:00] <NativeAngels> even if your running a binddns server locally ikonia
[11:00] <Caesi> ActionParsnip: should that be the path in Nautilus then?
[11:01] <loller> can u tell me powerful browser typically for linux except the firefox
[11:01] <erUSUL> error404notfound: seems harmless
[11:01] <cooldduuudde> loller apera
[11:01] <Sylis> Ok so I installed the third party ntfs driver for ubuntu but it still won't mount my drive
[11:01] <Sylis> it says it's in use
[11:01] <sim-value> epiphany
[11:01] <cooldduuudde> loller: opera i meant
[11:02] <suzao> add/remove shows compiz for kde.. is this correct for 8.10 .. i dont see anything else about compiz/ ? how do i install it?
[11:02] <bazhang> !ccsm
[11:02] <Caesi> ok got it: Ubuntu works very well with iPods, except the iPod Touch, iPhone, and any other future generation Apple portable devices that do not show up as a generic storage device. To sync with these new-generation devices, you must perform an unsupported Jailbreak operation to gain SSH access to the device (the iPhone) over wifi. :) thanks though
[11:02] <cooldduuudde> !ccsm
[11:02] <loller> cooldduuudde i get it except opera ?
[11:02] <cooldduuudde> loller go to the opera websit
[11:03] <oCean_> Sylis: it probably says "marked to be in use"
[11:03] <suzao> how to use compiz?
[11:03] <Sylis> yes that's what I mean oCean_
[11:03] <cooldduuudde> !browser
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> Caesi: if you mount it to that folder then you can browse to that folder, if it automounts you will need to sudo umount it
[11:03] <lwizardl> Sylis, that means that it wasn't safely removed from windows
[11:03] <cooldduuudde> loller: get it?
[11:03] <erUSUL> Sylis: unclean shutdown or umount in windows
[11:03] <defrysk> and midori
[11:03] <oCean_> Sylis: indicating that the filesystem was not cleanly shutdown, because of that it's marked 'bad'
[11:04] <ikonia> suzao: don't worry about compiz until you have your resolution sorted
[11:04] <Sylis> well I tried doing the force command and nothing really happens
[11:04] <loller> cooldduuudde whatever thanks for help anyway
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> Caesi: if you run mount with no arguments it will show you what is mounted where
[11:04] <cooldduuudde> loller: you're welcome
[11:04] <Caesi> ActionParsnip: ok I'll try that
[11:04] <oCean_> Sylis: the one real option is to boot windows and try to fix it there (what's it called checkdisk?)
[11:05] <Sylis> hmm....ok
[11:05] <Caesi> ActionParsnip: can't see it there, but according to that site, the iPod Touch generation is not yet supported?
[11:05] <connar> oCean_: i have a problem with totem
[11:06] <|HSO|SadiQ> !iptables
[11:06] <Caesi> ActionParsnip: rather, I would have to "jailbreak" it
[11:06] <connar> oCean_: it says Failed to connect to stream: invalid argument
[11:06] <Seper> !
[11:06] <mrglinux> my ubunu 8.10 doesn't boot. i go to live cd and i could not mount my root partion i got mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda7,missing codepage or helper program ... when i run dmesg i got http://pastebin.com/m25b9f7e8 my partion format is ext3 .. so what happend for my partion ?
[11:06] <oCean_> connar: have you shared details with the channel? Multimedia is not really my cup of tea
[11:06] <connar> oCean_: i have my audio workingwith vlc nicely
[11:07] <connar> okay
[11:07] <ActionParsnip> Caesi: i dont know. I dont use apples garbage
[11:07] <werdnum> Hi, I get this in my Xorg log -- (WW) NVIDIA(0): No valid modes for "800x600@50"; removing.

[11:07] <suzao> thanks for the info bazhang ;-)
[11:07] <Milkeh> don't worry I got it
[11:08] <fosco_> werdnum: don't worry, xserver discards that unsupported mode
[11:08] <connar> ActionParsnip: my totem is not working
[11:08] <Caesi> ActionParsnip: ok :) thanks though
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> connar: can you expand please
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> connar: you should address the room rather than just me
[11:08] <werdnum> fosco_: great, but I put that mode in there and I want it to use it :)
[11:09] <connar> ActionParsnip: actually i did asked it earlier
[11:09] <werdnum> My display doesn't support EDID, so I turned that off. I want it to use 800x600 or so, but it seems to insist on 640x640
[11:09] <connar> my totem player says : Failed to connect to stream: Invalid argument
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> connar: you were talking to oCean_ not me
[11:10] <Milkeh> does anybody know the force quit cmd?
[11:10] <Milkeh> say if I wanted to close conky
[11:10] <connar> ActionParsnip: okay ActionParsnip..
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> Milkeh: killall conky
[11:10] <Milkeh> thanks again
[11:10] <connar> ActionParsnip: i m sorry about that
[11:10] <Seper> mrglinux: What type of partition is hda7 listed as when you run: fdisk -l
[11:10] <connar> ActionParsnip: but please can u help me
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> connar: np, what is your totem doing not doing?
[11:11] <m1r> how to configure mobile broadband on ubuntu 8.10 in network manager ?
[11:11] <mrglinux> Seper: /dev/sda7           16324       19457    25173823+  83  Linux it is ext3
[11:11] <mrglinux>  
[11:11] <connar> ActionParsnip: i m able to see the player..but the moment i try to play any video or audio file it says ..Failed to connect to the stream ; Invalid argument
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> connar: do you have the medibntu codecs?
[11:12] <Seper> mrglinux: And cfdisk lists it as ext3 also?
[11:12] <mrglinux> seper : sda7                                      Logical          Linux ext3
[11:13] <connar> ActionParsnip: i dont..
[11:13] <connar> ActionParsnip: but i hv my vlc running fine
[11:13] <connar> ActionParsnip: i m using alsa-mixer
[11:14] <Seper> mrglinux: ok. First thing I would do is double/triple check all my other partitions and make sure they are correct.
[11:14] <spiros> hi
[11:14] <zach_> i am trying to compile a program, can someone look at this and tell me what i might need to do next? http://pastebin.com/d59a757b3
[11:14] <cooldduuudde> ActionParsnip: connar i play all my videos without medibuntu codecs in totem
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> !medibuntu | connar
[11:15] <ActionParsnip> cooldduuudde: can you advise any then, as a fellow totem user
[11:15] <connar> okay
[11:15] <mrglinux> Seper i could not mount /dev/sda7 isn't unusual ?
[11:15] <ikonia> mrglinux: depends on the error/problem
[11:16] <cooldduuudde> connar: wen you play a video file in totem, if the codec is not installed, it automatically detects and installs from repos. so most likely this isn't a codec related problem
[11:16] <Seper> mrglinux: If you want to force it, I can give you instructions. But I recommend making sure that it's 100% the right partition.
[11:17] <mrglinux> Seper: ikonia http://pastebin.com/m3d9cf79f
[11:17] <mrglinux> sudo mount /dev/sda7 /mnt -o force  also doesn't work
[11:18] <ikonia> mrglinux: what file system is on it ?
[11:18] <mrglinux> ikonia ext3
[11:18] <ikonia> mrglinux: mount -t ext3 blah/blh
[11:18] <oCean_> zach_: install libtool (sudo apt-get install libtool)
[11:18] <fosco_> mrglinux: specify the filesystem type
[11:19] <Guest45203> what is software use as visual basic in ubuntu
[11:19] <PoloNorte> ubuntu-br
[11:19] <ikonia> Guest45203: no
[11:19] <PoloNorte> !br
[11:19] <Sylis> Ok so I hooked up the harddrive and stopped it in windows and I've got it to come up in ubuntu, however I have a new error saying org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply I assume this is just a "the error didn't show an error" error?
[11:19] <Dougal> Okies, just found out that {Windows key}+R makes the screen zoom in, so I get a magnified view of everything. Brilliant....
[11:19] <ikonia> Guest45203: mono - which is the open source .net implementation is closest
[11:19] <mrglinux> i think my filesystem damaged i try sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda7 /mnt i got same error
[11:19] <Dougal> But... how do I make it stop?
[11:19] <Seper> mrglinux: To force a clean on it: fsck.ext3 /dev/sda7
[11:19] <ikonia> mrglinux: maybe you are mistaken that it's ext3
[11:19] <Guest45203> ikonia:why
[11:19] <ikonia> Guest45203: beause it's a microsoft product
[11:20] <connar> ActionParsnip: what shud i do now?
[11:20] <Seper> mrglinux: ikonia is right, that's why I said make sure you have the right partition
[11:20] <Guest45203> ikonia: it's ralated any software
[11:20] <ikonia> Guest45203: no it's not
[11:20] <ActionParsnip> Guest45203: apparently gambas is vb
[11:20] <ikonia> Guest45203: vistual basic is designed to run on microsoft platforms, hence why Linux doesn't have a version
[11:20] <ActionParsnip> connar: i dont use totem dude, let me websearch
[11:21] <connar> ActionParsnip: okay..

[11:22] <mrglinux> Seper what do you mean by right partition i sure /dev/sda7 was my root . i can mount all my partition but it partition i can not
[11:22] <gnuuer> Dougal: It's known bug.
[11:22] <ActionParsnip> connar: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=647434
[11:22] <mrglinux> also i try it http://pastebin.com/m190f4d2
[11:22] <gnuuer> Dougal: What's the version?
[11:22] <cooldduuudde> Dougal: its in compiz-config settings
[11:22] <ikonia> mrglinux: have you deleted any partitions ?
[11:23] <trebeca> !ot
[11:23] <Seper> mrglinux: Usually this error only occurs when trying to mount the wrong filesystem type "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda7"
[11:23] <ActionParsnip> cooldduuudde: x servers have magnify too, id check he's running compiz first
[11:23] <fosco_> mrglinux: are you sure sda7 is ext3? (sudo parted -l | grep sda7)
[11:24] <Dougal> gnuuer: I'm running Hardy Heron. Consider me a newb: compiz-config settings is something I can find under the 'sytem' menu?
[11:24] <Guest93178> tell me again the name of software like as visual basic
[11:24] <mrglinux> fosco_: no output
[11:24] <cooldduuudde> ActionParsnip: i told him the best i knew:)

[11:25] <ActionParsnip> oooh parted -l is much nier to read

[11:26] <Chousuke> optional perhaps
[11:26] <mrglinux> Seper fosco_ http://pastebin.com/m4e1ba9af
[11:26] <trebeca> optional crud
[11:26] <ikonia> sdf2: optional
[11:26] <Guest93178> ikonia:  but i have come to know that it is used
[11:26] <fosco_> sdf2: some optional apps
[11:26] <Dougal> gnuuer: No, i meant "consider me a newb... so i don't know where to find comiz-config settings. Could you help?"
[11:27] <ikonia> Guest93178: visual basic is not available on Linux, there is .net which has some VB components in, which is ported using the "mono" project
[11:27] <alexex> i think that could be the reason why my sound is stumbling when im using audio effects
[11:27] <mrglinux> Seper fosco_ when my system wants boot this was gonig to chek my system file but i skip last night i reser my system with my case today it doesn't boot

[11:29] <Dougal> ActionParsnip: thanks
[11:29] <ikonia> mrglinux: or your disk is having a hardware issue
[11:29] <fosco_> Milkeh: ~/.themes (user themes) or /usr/share/themes (system themes)
[11:29] <Seper> mrglinux: I'm pretty sure that short-reads were what I was getting when my previous harddrives died.
[11:30] <Milkeh> fosco_, no such file or directory?

[11:33] <moDumass> actually you can probably let that in
[11:33] <Milkeh> well say I'm downloading from them from gnome-look, should I be looking in GTK 2.x?
[11:33] <moDumass> if it could go in

Does anyone know a *quick* and simple way to fix this? just a button I can push. If there's no quick way i'll just restart the computer.
[11:40] <paulSterio> why do I keep getting that error
[11:41] <halfrican> Trying to install VMware converter.. is it in repositories?   ... if so, what's the package name?
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> rai: head to #compiz for compiz help
[11:41] <paulSterio> I ping the ip in the terminal and it seems fine
[11:41] <fosco_> Dougal: ccsm is the way to manage compiz options
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> !vmware | halfrican
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> paulSterio: can you put my name at the strt of sentances addressed to me so it ighlights just like im highlighting yours
[11:42] <age6racer> Ocean_: I get gateway 0.0.0.0
[11:42] <darthanubis> smaba is crashing or segfaulting
[11:42] <darthanubis> evolution crashes if you use copy in a reply email
[11:43] <paulSterio> ActionParsnip, ok
[11:43] <oCean_> age6racer: output is most likely couple of lines. Line starting with 0.0.0.0 is default route. Gateway address should be your router address. Check with the other ubuntu boxes?
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> paulSterio: better :), let me websearch
[11:43] <paulSterio> ActionParsnip, so I've placed the ip into the address bar - and it gives me an error message
[11:44] <darthanubis> when evolution crashes as well as samba no report is generated by apport
[11:44] <age6racer> output is 4 lines. I have 2 for wlan 0
[11:44] <age6racer> destination is 192.168.1.0 - Gateway is 0.0.0.0 netmask seems fine (255.255.255.0
[11:44] <shivain22> anyone there to help about serial ports
[11:45] <paulSterio> ActionParsnip, I have no idea - this window doesn't even try and process the ip
[11:45] <shivain22> whats the server port for vbox irc
[11:45] <shivain22> im not able to get it
[11:45] <oCean_> age6racer: it's all about the line STARTING with 0.0.0.0 (first field)
[11:45] <BlackDalek> Why do I have to reboot ubuntu if I want to plug a TV set into the TV out port of the computer? Why can't the TV-Out port always be "on" even with the s-video lead unplugged?
[11:45] <age6racer> I dont have a line starting with 0.0.0.0
[11:45] <oCean_> age6racer: then that is the problem
[11:45] <oCean_> age6racer: check with the other ubuntu boxes.
[11:46] <age6racer> yeah I see that I have one on this machine that I'm on now
[11:46] <shavin> guys i have done some research and plan to re-install ubuntu on my pen drive usng a regular install(not the usbcreator) The reason is that usbcreator does not go well with updates, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6304135 Now the problem is how do i tmpfs to /tmp, /var/tmp and /var/log as recommended in the same thread link. could anyone guide me please?
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> paulSterio: on the Mac, go to system preferences-> Sharing. click on Personal files sharing, then window's file sharing.
[11:46] <age6racer> how can I change the routing info on the problem machine?
[11:46] <oCean_> age6racer: if default gateway (e.g. the line starting 0.0.0.0) is missing, then the box has no way of knowing how to reach another network outsitde of the 192.168.1.0 network
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> paulSterio: just got that off a guide
[11:46] <Dougal> fosco_: Figured out the mistake. I ran ccsm in a text-only terminal, seemed easier to control than my crazy-desktop screen. I worked out that this  was the mistake. Still, for the record, i don't have a clue what 'compiz' is.
[11:46] <fosco_> !compiz | Dougal
[11:47] <altrortla> what program i had to use to shooth images with a web cam?
[11:47] <ActionParsnip> paulSterio: make sure the mac is set so it can share with windows clients, then it will use smb
[11:47] <fosco_> altrortla: you can use cheese
[11:47] <altrortla> Hi ActionParsnip
[11:47] <altrortla> hi fosco_
[11:47] <fosco_> !hi
[11:47] <oCean_> age6racer: something prevented *this* box from setting the default route. Check the /etc/network scripts

[11:49] <shivain22> any help on serial port is appreciated
[11:50] <ikonia> shivain22: what's the problem with the serial port ?
[11:50] <oCean_> age6racer: I think so. I'm not sure because you *do* get an ip. Only the default route is not set....
[11:50] <francis> e.net

[11:53] <adantan_alex> if i put ubuntu on a partition and choose to un install.. how can i get the windows boot loader back.. i dont wanna keep GRUB
[11:53] <ikonia> adantan_alex: use a windows recoery option on the windows install CD
[11:53] <ikonia> adantan_alex: the guys in ##windows will walk you through it
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> adantan_alex: you need a windows cd to rewrite ntldr to the boot sector
[11:53] <adantan_alex> ok
[11:54] <adantan_alex> thats all i needed to know..

[11:55] <elad`> My firefox has gone nuts, and now always displays the "Your browser has been updated and needs to be restarted" message, no matter how many times I restart it. Help?
[11:55] <age6racer> oCean_: I actually had it set to manual IP, I have changed it now to DHCP. I still get an IP (different one) and I have the route starting with 0.0.0.0 in the routing table but I still have no connection
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> elad`: sudo apt-get --reistall install firefox
[11:55] <ActionParsnip> *--reinstall
[11:56] <thedark> hello everyone
[11:56] <thedark> after a year I am trying to switch from Kubuntu to Ubuntu
[11:57] <thedark> but the step 4 of the installation (the partitioner) doesn't seem to work
[11:57] <thedark> the fields are all blank and the options are all faded so I can't click them
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> thedark: did you md5 check the iso you downloaded and verify the burned disk was ok once booted to
[11:58] <thedark> well I burned it in k3b and it did an automatic md5 check
[11:58] <thedark> and didn't give any errors
[11:58] <adantan_alex> i tried to install ubuntu inside windows on another hard drive but didn't show in the boot loader.. i also checked msconfig but it only showed windows vista and windows 7 why?
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> thedark: it automatically calculates the md5, it doesnt compare it
[11:58] <thedark> ah I see...
[11:58] <thedark> is there no way to check it now?
[11:58] <ikonia> adantan_alex: wubi is quite fussy, installing to another drive may not be supported
[11:59] <cliffbreaker> please help! try to start xawtv it gives me the following - WARNING: No DGA direct video mode for this display.Segmentation fault
[11:59] <duxas> free shell ? pm me
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> if you dont have the iso then not really, thecd has a checking function on it but its essential to check the md5 of the image too
[11:59] <duxas> free shell ? pm me
[11:59] <duxas> free shell ? pm me
[11:59] <adantan_alex> ah, so i would need to install is on the windows vista hard drive to have 3 options to boot from?
[11:59] <ikonia> adantan_alex: this was one of the reasons I suggested a native install
[11:59] <oCean_> age6racer: can you ping the gateway that is specified in the 0.0.0.0 line? It's most likely your router's address
[12:00] <breeze> hi
[12:00] <thedark> I have the iso file on a usb drive
[12:00] <age6racer> no I still cannot ping the router
[12:00] <adantan_alex> i dont wanna get rid of the windows boot loader though.. im only testing out ubuntu because of valves new update that wrecked team fortress 2 servers
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> thedark: fine, get it checked, then check the cd on the first boot screen that comes up
[12:01] <yingbo> hello
[12:01] <adantan_alex> hi
[12:01] <yingbo> who are you?
[12:01] <elad`> ActionParsnip, that hasn't helped.
[12:02] <adantan_alex> ikonia: i dont wanna get rid of the windows boot loader though.. im only testing out ubuntu because of valves new update that wrecked team fortress 2 servers
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> elad`: ok let me websearch
[12:02] <elad`> Thanks.

[12:03] <adantan_alex> !install
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> elad`: sudo killall -9 -r firefox
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> elad`: or simply reboot
[12:04] <elad`> ActionParsnip, I did. Didn't work.
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> elad`: basicall, you havent closed all firefoxes
[12:04] <elad`> ActionParsnip, I rebooted.
[12:05] <adantan_alex> ikonia: you there?
[12:05] <ikonia> adantan_alex: yes
[12:05] <yingbo> 这是在哪里呢？
[12:05] <ikonia> adantan_alex: `what do you want me to say ?
[12:05] <adantan_alex> oh, thought you were doing something else.. sorry
[12:06] <adantan_alex> is it even possible to have a third option to boot from?
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> elad`: then keep reading that bug report
[12:06] <age6racer> oCean_: I cannot ping the router
[12:07] <bazhang> !cn | yingbo
[12:07] <kalakouentin> hello, the removal of a programma that was originally install using a .gz through the standard procedure "/configure, make, make install " does it involves something else than the obvious rm of the file in /bin and in /home/username when the original .gz is deleted and "make uninstall" isn't a option?
[12:07] <kalakouentin> I thought of making a .deb through checkinstall, "re"-install it (thus overwriting the "current installation" and then use apt to remove it letting take care of the possible dependency issues. Any other ideas thought? :D
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> age6racer: if you set a static ip, can you ping it?
[12:08] <age6racer> nope
[12:08] <ikonia> adantan_alex: yes, but as I said, it's quite fussy so you may not be able to use a second drive
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> age6racer: is it wired or wireless?
[12:08] <age6racer> wireless, but the same problem happens with wired
[12:08] <adantan_alex> ok im going to try on the same drive
[12:09] <oCean_> age6racer: so you did get an ip from the router, but then you cannot ping the router itself? Are you sure the Gateway address in the 0.0.0.0 line == your router's address?
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> age6racer: are all interfaces marke as up in ifconfig?
[12:09] <saadibabar> what is the alternative of ISA server in ubuntu intrepid
[12:09] <age6racer> yes I am sure it is. the line is exactly the same as the line on my working machines
[12:09] <age6racer> and the router address is correct
[12:10] <saadibabar> what is the alternative of ISA server in ubuntu intrepid?
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> age6racer: try sudo ifup eth0; sudo ifup <wireless device name>
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> saadibabar: whats an isa server?
[12:10] <age6racer> yes. i now have wired connection too and both wired and wireless eth0 and wlan0 are up and have IP's via DHCP
[12:11] <saadibabar> Internet security and acceleration
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> age6racer: have you changed your hostname recently?
[12:11] <age6racer> for sude ifup eth0 I get "ignoring unknown interface eth0-eth0"
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> saadibabar: to share a connection, like a rouer?
[12:12] <age6racer> I dont think I have changed hostname
[12:12] <age6racer> how/where would I change my hostname?
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> age6racer: try powering off your router for a minute or so, then reboot ubuntu, then power on router
[12:13] <Rocket101> firefox crash  every time  i run java
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> !hostname
[12:13] <age6racer> ok BRB

[12:26] <Dvlpr> where can i disable selinux?
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> Rocket101: maybe it just likes it there
[12:26] <Dvlpr> i heard its somewhere in configs
[12:26] <ikonia> Dvlpr: selinux is not on in ubuntu
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> !info selinux
[12:26] <Rocket101> ActionParsnip ,ok   shall i try  now?
[12:26] <ActionParsnip> Rocket101: sure, make sure firefox isnt running
[12:26] <Dvlpr> ikonia, so it means that its not included in ubuntu by default?
[12:27] <ActionParsnip> Dvlpr: its optional in intrepid
[12:27] <ikonia> Dvlpr: correct
[12:27] <CrocoJet> how can I run one program .bin with double click in desktop area?
[12:27] <Dvlpr> mhm
[12:27] <ikonia> CrocoJet: depends on if it needs a shell to execute
[12:27] <Dvlpr> i got a problem with ircd... its getting closed by some unknown resoans...
[12:27] <ikonia> CrocoJet: what do you want to run
[12:27] <exon> what is selinux?
[12:27] <ActionParsnip> CrocoJet: chmod +x <bin file>
[12:28] <ikonia> exon: a security layer
[12:28] <Dvlpr> is there anything like trace in ubuntU?
[12:28] <ikonia> Dvlpr: stace is available
[12:28] <exon> a diffrent shell?
[12:28] <exon> a security shell?
[12:28] <CrocoJet> ikonia, is a program that I made download (tax program for linux), Iknow how to run via terminal, but is not possible run (install) via gnome?
[12:28] <ikonia> exon: no
[12:29] <ikonia> CrocoJet: does it need a terminal environment to run ?
[12:29] <CrocoJet> ActionParsnip, let me try
[12:29] <Rocket101> ActionParsnip ,crashed again :(
[12:29] <Dvlpr> hmhm
[12:29] <CrocoJet> ikonia, no, has graphical interface .. let me try chmod
[12:29] <Dvlpr> can ubuntu close the process without an error in code?
[12:30] <ActionParsnip> Rocket101: ok rm the file you made
[12:30] <Rocket101> ActionParsnip ,which one (plugins ?)
[12:31] <CrocoJet> ActionParsnip, after doubleclick show "There is no application installed for this file type"
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> Rocket101: rm ~/.mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin.so
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> CrocoJet: i think you hve to use CLI, or make a .desktop file to hit it
[12:32] <Rocket101> ActionParsnip ,done
[12:32] <CrocoJet> ActionParsnip, CLI? what is the meaning?
[12:32] <ActionParsnip> !cli
[12:33] <CrocoJet> ActionParsnip, via terminal with "./namefile.bin" ... run pretty nice
[12:33] <ActionParsnip> CrocoJet: yes, thats using CLI
[12:33] <CrocoJet> ok
[12:34] <CrocoJet> so not possible run via doubleclick at desktop area? (because is more simple and fast)
[12:34] <ActionParsnip> CrocoJet: you could make a desktop file on your desktop to run the file
[12:34] <CrocoJet> oh ok
[12:34] <CrocoJet> understand now
[12:34] <CrocoJet> thanks
[12:34] <thedark> how do I check the MD5sum of my burned Ubuntu cd?
[12:34] <ActionParsnip> something like: sh ./namefile.bin
[12:35] <ActionParsnip> !md5
[12:35] <exon> does anybody know somthing about remote desktop controle   ....controling  a desktop over the internet ?
[12:35] <CrocoJet> ok got it
[12:35] <altrortla> i can understand when i find this kind of path /home/user/.folder .... but if i look for this folder i can't find it
[12:35] <ActionParsnip> exon: you can do it with vnc (over ssh for security) or just ssh or rdesktop to used windows RDP
[12:36] <altrortla> i can't find in this case ./folder
[12:36] <agra> I'm trying to find the kernel source using synaptic but cannot, why?!
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> altrortla: try: cd /home/user; ls -a
[12:36] <exon> but the computer you want to remote need to forward a port in its router?
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> !kernel | agra
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> exon: yes, and then you would connect to the wan ip of the router
[12:36] <altrortla> ActionParsnip: "-a" stand for...?
[12:36] <exon> what port? 5900?
[12:36] <ActionParsnip> altrortla: all
[12:36] <agra> Thank you actionparsnip!
[12:36] <altrortla> azz
[12:37] <exon> and is this TCP or UDP protocol
[12:37] <travian_geek> can I use {}{}{}{} inside a function in bash? How???????????
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> exon: whichever you use, if you are connecting to a windows pc i suggest you try both one at a time to see which flys, or websearch to find out
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> exon: again, i'm unsure, ask in ##windows
[12:38] <Rocket101> ActionParsnip , stell crashed
[12:39] <ageviracer> oCean_: I have just looked at my router's config and the laptop shows up as connected under both wireless and wired clients lists. Everything seems to be fine now but I still cannot connect.
[12:39] <ageviracer> This machine wirks fine on most other wireless or wired networks
[12:39] <Rocket101> ActionParsnip , how can i read  ff logs?
[12:39] <ActionParsnip> Rocket101: try removing all java plugin packages and reinstalling it
[12:39] <ActionParsnip> Rocket101: not sure where they are

[12:56] <ageviracer> can someone help me with my DNS please...? I have a laptop that pretty much seems fine but cannot connect to the network or internet (it is assigned an IP by DHCP but cannot ping any other machine or web address)
[12:56] <ageviracer> I'm pretty sure it's DNS
[12:56] <ageviracer> my working machine shows different info when I run "sudo route"
[12:56] <scorpey> hi
[12:56] <ageviracer> I have deleted /etc/resolve.conf on the problem machine (the working machine does not have one)
[12:56] <bazhang> scorpey, watch the language
[12:57] <ActionParsnip> ageviracer: users can run route, no need for sudo to view the routing table
[12:57] <ageviracer> ok
[12:57] <ageviracer> thanks
[12:57] <ageviracer> on the working machine the default route lists the gateway as a name (the name of the router)
[12:57] <ageviracer> on the problem mahine it lists it as an IP (correct IP)

[12:59] <drurew> hi guys...im creating a apt mirror for use on an off line network...im doing this at work ...and would like that no one be able to fiddle with the box while im away. How can i log out while allowing apt-mirror to continue running .... perspectively where do i find such settings under gnome
[12:59] <bazhang> Riya, do you have a support question?
[12:59] <ActionParsnip> !vnc > exon
[13:00] <Pici> !screen | drurew
[13:00] <Acedip> Supersaiyan_IV, , well out of 3, 2 temperatures are always same and always a bit lower than the third..
[13:00] <ActionParsnip> ageviracer: heres mine off my fileserver: http://pastebin.com/f13a973de
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> ageviracer: if you use a different network address then change the ip accordingly
[13:01] <Pici> drurew: If you run your program within screen, it will continue running while you have logged out, when you log back in you can re-attach to the screen session
[13:01] <Riya> Ya may i know how to change MAC address
[13:01] <Supersaiyan_IV> Acedip, the 2 lower ones are the straight from the cores
[13:01] <Supersaiyan_IV> Acedip, the other one could be the motherboard's
[13:01] <bazhang> Riya, why do you need to do that
[13:02] <drurew> Pici...will i ruin my apt-mirror rep if i were to kill it ..log out and then log back in using tty1 or ctrl , alt, F1 ...then restart apt-mirror ?
[13:03] <Pici> drurew: I don't really know enough about apt-mirror to answer, sorry.
[13:03] <rohdef> does anyone know of a program that can be used to enter and store evaluation schemas (and print the results)?
[13:03] <Riya> becoz in my college i want to con wifi . that is not allow to student
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> Riya: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/change-your-network-card-mac-address-on-ubuntu/
[13:03] <Acedip> Supersaiyan_IV, thanks man..but on a frnds pc . there was only one temperature inspite it being a dual core..
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> Riya: google is your friend
[13:04] <ageviracer> ActionParsnip: Still no luck cannot ping router
[13:04] <Supersaiyan_IV> Acedip, the core temperature sensors module needs to be activate first

[13:08] <amigamia> i see there was an update for today. 1. tzdata. i wonder what was wrong with the time zones?
[13:08] <Myrtti> bazhang: I suspect it's shorthand for connecting
[13:08] <blackest_knight1> I have packages not upgraded any idea how i get them to upgrade ?
[13:09] <bazhang> Myrtti, thought it meant as in 'to con'
[13:09] <Myrtti> bazhang: *shrug*
[13:09] <amigamia> haha blackest_knight1 what a name :)
[13:09] <ActionParsnip> blackest_knight1: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[13:09] <amigamia> what command do you use to upgrade?
[13:10] <bazhang> !upgrade > amigamia
[13:10] <amigamia> there you gon actionparsnip beat me to the command
[13:10] <blackest_knight1> was using apt trying aptitude now
[13:10] <Pici> amigamia: See for yourself: https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tzdata
[13:10] <Riya> i have wifi connection but some restriction in college to download . so i have my one MAC and IP in my Sir . In that how can i connect net . I have the command ifconfig eth1 hw ether <MAC>
[13:10] <bazhang> Riya, so this is illegal? we dont support that here
[13:11] <amigamia> i removed my top for my 1u server. is it necessisary to keep that lid on the top of the thing?
[13:11] <piloten1975> I accidently removed my sources.list from version 7.04  how can I get a new one?
[13:11] <blackest_knight1> still stuck   kde-guidance-powermanager will not upgrade
[13:11] <ikonia> piloten1975: why did you do that
[13:12] <piloten1975> ikonia: does it matter?
[13:12] <amigamia> it sure doesnt matter
[13:12] <Riya> But i want to update linux .Linux is not supprting Dail up connection so how can i ?
[13:12] <piloten1975> ikonia: I did a misstake
[13:12] <amigamia> cant it be rebuilt from installed things?
[13:12] <ActionParsnip> blackest_knight1: sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get --reinstall install kde-guidance-powermanager
[13:13] <ikonia> piloten1975: trying to understand whay you wanted to do to offer the best solution
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> blackest_knight1: if that doesnt fly, rerun a normal upgrade and pastebin us the output
[13:13] <amigamia> isnt there a backup file?
[13:13] <piloten1975> amigamia: nope
[13:13] <blackest_knight1> aptitude has sorted things i think nothing being heldback now
[13:14] <Riya> what is aircrack ?

[13:14] <amigamia> you can get your answer in #remote-exploit
[13:14] <amigamia> or probalby not since they are all snobs
[13:14] <DeathNote> HELLO MY FRIENDS
[13:15] <Riya> how can i install aircrack ?
[13:15] <ikonia> Riya: please stop discussing this here
[13:15] <Chikkis> hi everyone
[13:15] <DeathNote> I NEED SOME BUCKS TO PAY MY INTERNET BILL And a copy of ubuntu plx plox
[13:15] <ikonia> Riya: you have made it clear you are not supposed to be using this wifi network - so please stop
[13:15] <amigamia> go ask in #security
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> !caps | DeathNote
[13:15] <ikonia> DeathNote: stop now
[13:15] <bazhang> DeathNote, lost the caps
[13:15] <DeathNote> sry mens
[13:15] <ikonia> DeathNote: this is a support channel only
[13:15] <DeathNote> ok i have problem setting up my wifi
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> !getubuntu | DeathNote
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> !download
[13:15] <DeathNote> getting hacked everydfays
[13:16] <DeathNote> getting annoying
[13:16] <Chikkis> i need help installing ubuntu on my machine
[13:16] <DeathNote> what is ipfilter ??
[13:16] <ikonia> DeathNote: a firewall basically
[13:16] <amigamia> heh Deathnote. sounds like it's some morbid legal note from microsoft
[13:16] <blackest_knight1> deathnote look at mac filter instead
[13:16] <ActionParsnip> Chikkis: did you md5 check the iso you downloaded as well as verify the cd you burned was ok?
[13:16] <Riya> is there any pkg for getting dailup connection
[13:16] <ActionParsnip> !dialup
[13:16] <ikonia> Riya: it's already installed
[13:16] <Chikkis> no i did not md5
[13:17] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | Chikkis
[13:17] <Chikkis> i have a dvd burner
[13:17] <Riya> but i cant connect dailup
[13:17] <ikonia> Riya: where are you trying to dial into ?
[13:17] <ActionParsnip> Chikkis: md5 checking is absolutely essentialwith disk images so you know what you have is the same as whats on the server and that it didnt get mangled in transit
[13:18] <ActionParsnip> Chikkis: if you have a bad im age, its going to give you issues and md5 checking can save you burning lots of cup mats
[13:18] <Chikkis> ok
[13:18] <blackest_knight1> Chikkis can you boot from the cd ?
[13:18] <amigamia> riya why do you need dialup?
[13:19] <ActionParsnip> Chikkis: if the iso checks ok, then boot to the cd and you can check it as burned ok, then you know its not the cd thats at fault
[13:19] <Riya> i am from india i don't have any pkg for connecting dilup . can u plz tel
[13:19] <ikonia> Riya: what are you trying to dial into
[13:19] <blackest_knight1> riya look at pppd
[13:19] <ActionParsnip> Riya: If ou want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto - Also try disabling/removing KNetworkManager if KDE applications cannot connect using dial-up
[13:20] <Chikkis> okay i have celron p3 677 mhz 256 mb ddr1 ram and 80 gig hdd with xp as an dual boot
[13:20] <amigamia> riya search in synaptic program manager
[13:20] <Chikkis> yeah i been able to boot  from the cd
[13:21] <Chikkis> but then i select install ubuntu
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> Chikkis: ok on the very first boot screen theres an option to check the cd
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> Chikkis: then reboot and read the screen
[13:21] <Chikkis> after some time it hangs
[13:21] <ActionParsnip> Chikkis: if that checks ok and the ISO you downloaded checks ok then your CD is perfect
[13:22] <Riya> how can i install pppd
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> Chikkis: if the cd is perfect we can start looking at bootoptions
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> !pppd
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> !ppp
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> hmm
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> pppoe
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> !pppoe
[13:22] <FloodBot3> ActionParsnip: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:22] <blackest_knight1> ok chikkas you may need the alt install cd its text based but you may find it works better for you with the small ram you have or perhaps xubuntu would be better initially then add the ubuntu desktop package once xubuntu is installed
[13:22] <Chikkis> okay
[13:22]  * ActionParsnip backhands FloodBot3
[13:23] <Riya> where the ubuntu passward is store
[13:23] <ActionParsnip> Riya: /etc/passwd
[13:23] <K> hi
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> Riya: they are encryptedadn you should NOT touch the file
[13:24] <Riya> how can i c ?
[13:24] <ikonia> Riya: you can't
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> Riya: cat /etc/passwd
[13:24] <Myrtti> Riya: what are you trying?
[13:24] <[biabia]> what do you need to do, that requires superuser access
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> Riya: you have no reason at all to be looking at, sniffing or even thinking about that file
[13:24] <Chikkis> does ubuntu  spupport celron processors
[13:24] <ikonia> Chikkis: yes
[13:24] <ActionParsnip> Chikkis: yes
[13:24] <Chikkis> ok
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> Chikkis: it supports all the way to 486s
[13:25] <Chikkis> ok
[13:25] <vanksi_> using 8.10, why is /etc/X11/xorg.conf empty? where can i find the real x config file?
[13:25] <Chikkis> i have p3 677 hmz
[13:25] <ikonia> vanksi_: that is the real config - it's dynamic now
[13:25] <ikonia> Chikkis: it's supported
[13:25] <ikonia> Chikkis: we've said 3 times
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> vanksi_: most of that stuff is managed by HAL
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> vanksi_: you can override it by adding the normal sections in there
[13:26] <bytecode> ActionParsnip: reading /etc/passwd is handy for determining users on a system.  Also most systems don't store the password in /etc/passwd - they store them in the shadow file... but you know that already ?
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> Chikkis: your cpu type / speed means nothing. why do you keep telling us?
[13:26] <Riya> how can i get all ip address that connected in wifi
[13:26] <Chikkis> oh ok
[13:26] <vanksi_> ActionParsnip, well how can i add the necessary options to get my middle button working on my tp X31
[13:27] <NOTEBOOK> HA....
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> bytecode: regular users shouldnt go poking around that file as it can really breeak stuff so i'm making sure that doesnt happen
[13:27] <Chikkis> casue i heard from a frnd he said he had issue installing also and he too haws celron
[13:27] <Chikkis> and other sutff
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> bytecode: you can store unencrypted passwords in plain text in/etc/passwd, if they are encrypted they are moved to /etc/shaow
[13:27] <ActionParsnip> bytecode: so yes i knew
[13:28] <ikonia> Chikkis: the processor is supported, however it is a poor slow processor, so don't expect good performance
[13:28] <Chikkis> do ihave to worry about motherboards???
[13:28] <bytecode> ActionParsnip: I figured that was your intention - but I think people have to be more "explanatory" than "don't go in there" - and I've appreciated it when you've helped me in an explanatory way in the past.
[13:28] <oj_> !pastebin
[13:29] <ikonia> Chikkis: it's quicker to try and install it than go through every component if you have no idea if it's supported
[13:29] <ikonia> !hcl > Chikkis
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> bytecode: true  enough
[13:29] <bytecode> ActionParsnip: anyone using plaintext in /etc/passwd should definitely be asked to give up and go home ;-)
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> vanksi_: http://www.marzocca.net/linux/ubuntux31.html#tpb
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> bytecode: true but it is possible, if not default
[13:30] <Chikkis> okay
[13:30] <Chikkis> i got the link
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> vanksi_: that site will help you set up the whole show
[13:30] <Riya> how can i fromat USB drive
[13:30] <Chikkis> thank youi
[13:30] <ikonia> Riya: open the gparted application
[13:30] <ikonia> Riya: that will work with any disk
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> Riya: use gksudo gparted
[13:31] <oj_> hi, can someone tell my how can i fix this compiling problem? http://paste.ubuntu.com/125768/
[13:32] <ikonia> oj_: it's because you don't have the Xorg header files installed, nothing to do with vbox
[13:33] <oj_> ikonia, so how do i fix that?
[13:33] <blackest_knight1> anybody remember the package for streaming mp3 from a server i was thinking slingbox but its not that
[13:33] <ikonia> oj_: install the xorg-devel package
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> oj_: sudo apt-get install libx11-dev x-dev
[13:33] <Riya> where gparated is it GUI or commend line ?
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> and what ikonia said too
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> Riya: gparted is gui
[13:34] <ikonia> Riya: it is a gui - it's quicker to launch it from the command line
[13:34] <ManateeLazyCat> Can someone help me check which "GHC" version in ubuntu, debian source is too old

[13:35] <ManateeLazyCat> ikonia: I want to know which "ghc" version that including in ubuntu source.
[13:35] <ikonia> ManateeLazyCat: are you not on ubuntu ?
[13:35] <ManateeLazyCat> ikonia: Debian,
[13:35] <Riya> i typed gksudo that time one window come and asking Run
[13:35] <ManateeLazyCat> ikonia: If ubuntu have new version that i need, i will switch to ubuntu
[13:35] <ikonia> ManateeLazyCat: what package in partcular
[13:35] <ikonia> !info ghc
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> Riya: type gparted in that little box

[13:36] <armedking> Can anyone give me some pointers in a Linux equivalent for Dreamweaver?
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> Riya: in the run box type: gparted
[13:36] <adante> hi how can i mount ext3/ntfs partitions with the permissions given to a particular user? do i HAVE to create an entry in the fstab? can't I do it purely from a sudo in the cmdline? i can't see any uid/gid option for ext3/ntfs
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> Riya: you should have typed: gksudo gparted
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> Riya: both words in the terminal
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> Riya: then you wouldnt see that box
[13:37] <shadowhand> hello, i am having an issue with subversion
[13:37] <shadowhand> svn: Repository moved permanently to 'http://myrepo.com/trunk/'; please relocate
[13:37] <ikonia> shadowhand: someone has moved the repo then
[13:37] <shadowhand> when trying to do a merge
[13:37] <shadowhand> no, the repo has not moved
[13:37] <ikonia> shadowhand: join #subversion for svn command help
[13:37] <ManateeLazyCat> ikonia: Search "ghc6" in ubuntu source
[13:38] <shadowhand> and i have tried "switch" and "switch --relocate"
[13:38] <ikonia> ManateeLazyCat what's the exact name of the package
[13:38] <ikonia> !info ghc6
[13:38] <shadowhand> no one in #svn is replying
[13:38] <Riya> how can i find my USB in gparted
[13:38] <ikonia> Riya: it will be listed as a disk in the menu
[13:38] <ManateeLazyCat> ikonia: ghc6
[13:38] <ikonia> shadowhand: wait it out
[13:38] <ikonia> !info ghc6 > ManateeLazyCat
[13:38] <ManateeLazyCat> ikonia: I see.
[13:38] <ikonia> ManateeLazyCat: cool
[13:38] <ManateeLazyCat> Still 6.8.2
[13:39] <shadowhand> the only thing i have found that may answer it is http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#301-error
[13:39] <shadowhand> however, this is a default install of the ubuntu svn server, and the location is /var/svn (for svn) and /var/www (for apache2)
[13:39] <shadowhand> so there is no way that the locations are overlapping to trigger the 301 error
[13:39] <ikonia> shadowhand: for repo commands, get the subversion guys to help
[13:39] <ManateeLazyCat> ikonia: ubottu output testing source?
[13:39] <ikonia> ManateeLazyCat: current stable
[13:39] <shadowhand> ... i don't need help with repo commands
[13:39] <shadowhand> i need help understanding why ubuntu's svn server does not work properly
[13:39] <shadowhand> hence, i am in #ubuntu
[13:40] <shadowhand> as well as #svn
[13:40] <Riya> i have more than 7 item two  is unallocated and ntfs and ext
[13:40] <ManateeLazyCat> ikonia: ubottu can do unstable source search?
[13:40] <ikonia> !info ghc6 jaunty
[13:40] <adante> hi, how do i mount a partition with permissions?
[13:40] <sky_> anyone know how i can download video from milw0rm.org ?
[13:41]  * shadowhand sighs
[13:41] <sky_> adante: using sudo ? xD
[13:41] <Pici> ManateeLazyCat: Ubuntu does not have a testing repository like Debian does.  We have a repo for each release.
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> adante: use -o <options> on the end of the command
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> adante: mount will need sudo as users cannot mount
[13:41] <ManateeLazyCat> Pici: So Ubuntu source is along with release?
[13:42] <ManateeLazyCat> Pici: But I think Ubuntu is base on Debian's unstable source.
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> adante: if its ntfs you will need ntfs-3g to get write access
[13:42] <raven> hi
[13:42] <Pici> ManateeLazyCat: Partially, but we do a lot of patches ourselves
[13:43] <ManateeLazyCat> Pici: Ubuntu contain all source that Debian have?
[13:43] <raven> i have a trust-drawpad - is it possible to use it in ubuntu?
[13:43] <ManateeLazyCat> s/source/package
[13:43] <ManateeLazyCat> Pici: Ubuntu contain all packages that Debian have?
[13:43] <Pici> ManateeLazyCat: No. But most
[13:43] <adante> ActionParsnip: but what options? i try uid=x and it just prints the output of mount -h
[13:43] <ManateeLazyCat> Pici: Why not including all?
[13:43] <adante> sky_: yes but how do i make the partition have the permissions of my user
[13:43] <ManateeLazyCat> Pici: Then i switch Ubuntu for try.
[13:44] <ubuntnoob>  http://fedoranews.org/tchung/storage/     helped me
[13:44] <ManateeLazyCat> Pici: I won't switch if Ubuntu lost something.

[13:49] <Pici> Mixt: You'd need a dock such as awn. Its the avant-window-navigator package in the repos.

[13:50] <ManateeLazyCat> Ok

[13:55] <hardisk> hi ppl
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> adante: then use: sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mount/point -o users,defaults
[13:56] <raven> i thought a drawpad would need no special driver because it works like a mouse in ubuntu but instead of tapping with the pencil i have to use the button - is there any software aviable for ubuntu like for joysticks to configure the standarts of the drawpad?
[13:56] <arvind_khadri> !hi | hardisk
[13:56] <hardisk> Do u know on what IRC Server is localized Ubuntu-FR?

[13:57] <hardisk> My mistake its on Freenode
[13:57] <hardisk> thx
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> adante: did that fly, you will need to: sudo umount /dev/sdc1
[13:59] <brutus> I cannot change my screen resolution more than 800*600. What's the problem?
[13:59] <arvind_khadri> brutus, using a graphics card?

[14:01] <guest> anyone have problems with ZendStudio 5.5.1 after last update? It hogs 100% of cpu, the second not updated pc works fine.
[14:01] <ikonia> guest: zend studio isn't an ubuntu package is it
[14:01] <brutus> arvind_khadri, yes- nvidia 8600GS
[14:01] <malibu> Has anyone here tried XenServer yet??
[14:01] <ikonia> guest:  you may want to contact zend about that
[14:01] <arvind_khadri> brutus, got the drivers for it?
[14:02] <brutus> arvind_khadri, I have the nvidia-glx driver installed too
[14:02] <arvind_khadri> brutus, ok just install nvidia-xconfig and then run sudo nvidia-xconfig
[14:02] <Dreamglider> i need some help with proxy settings. the proxy is set in Network Proxy but it wont work
[14:02] <guest> ikonia: ubuntu's updates break it :) so it's ubuntu's problem. it hink last java updates
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> adante: well, use sudo
[14:03] <Dreamglider> when i try to update i get ->  407 Proxy Authentication Required
[14:03] <brutus> arvind_khadri, it says: Backed up file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' as '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'
[14:03] <brutus> New X configuration file written to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: do you use a proxy for web browsing?
[14:04] <Gnea> raven: is that a physical or virtual thing?
[14:04] <Dreamglider> ActionParsnip: yes
[14:04] <brutus> arvind_khadri, I actually tried this before...and rebooted...no luck with that....
[14:04] <arvind_khadri> brutus, ya you will also need nvidia-settings....
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: does it require authentication?
[14:04] <on5sl> what is wrong with this line?: syntax error near unexpected token `datum=$(ls -lT "$dir"dump/"$liedje" | awk '{print $6" "$9}')'
[14:04] <Dreamglider> ActionParsnip: Yes
[14:04] <brutus> arvind_khadri, when I try to run nvidia xsettings it says: You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.
[14:04] <arvind_khadri> brutus, in nvidia-settings you can set the resolution to what you want
[14:04] <raven> gnea physical
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: then you will need to either connect and browse then update or give apt-get your credentials to allow the traffic
[14:05] <arvind_khadri> brutus, run it now
[14:05] <Dreamglider> ActionParsnip: How ?
[14:05] <brutus> arvind_khadri, nope...same error message..
[14:06] <arvind_khadri> brutus, just restart X and then run nvidia-settings
[14:06] <Gnea> raven: wacom makes a highly supported version
[14:06] <brutus> ok...i'll just do that

[14:07] <Dreamglider> ActionParsnip:  im on mibbit so im browsing, but i cannot use apt-get nor the update manager it says > The ISA Server requires authorization to fulfill the request. Access to the Web Proxy service is denied.. I have entered the proxy and user/pass in the network proxy

[14:07] <raven> i knew that there are no drivers for linux but i only need the main funktion but this only works 90 %
[14:07] <Dreamglider> ActionParsnip: and when i am on campus i dont need a proxy what do i do then ?
[14:07] <raven> for example i cannot tap on the pad but i have to use the button to klick
[14:07] <raven> is there any configuration tool like this for joysticks aviable?
[14:08] <Dreamglider> is there somthing like a proxy manager ? (Like the one i have in Firefox)
[14:08] <blakeshrt> ls -l nodes -rwxrwxrwx 1 comp root 15 Mar 3 21:06 nodes but as the user 'comp' i get ls: cannot access /var/spool/torque/server_priv/nodes: Permission denied whats the problem here?

[14:09] <blakeshrt> arvind_khadri: no
[14:09] <arvind_khadri> blakeshrt, no as in ??
[14:09] <oj_> ikonia, hey sorry again can u tell me what I need to install to get this working? I tried scrolling up in chat but I can't respond to your reply
[14:10] <brutus> arvind_khadri, I did that...it said on startup that its running Ubuntu on low graphics mode...i'm stuck on 800*600 now...cannot increase it further
[14:10] <oj_> ikonia, http://paste.ubuntu.com/125768/

[14:10] <brutus> ar
[14:10] <brutus> arvind_khadri,
[14:10] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: export the proxy as blank
[14:10] <blakeshrt> arvind_khadri: no as in that defeats the whole purpose of having a solution
[14:11] <Gnea> raven: it doesn't appear that the trust is well known or well supported http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=929617
[14:11] <blakeshrt> arvind_khadri: i don't want to change user to access it - i want to access it as the user 'comp'
[14:11] <arvind_khadri> brutus, hmmm you need to use the restricted drivers...
[14:12] <brutus> arvind_khadri, When I go to restricted managers it says the driver is enabled and already in use...
[14:13] <Oli```> I'm just doing a clean up in synaptic. Is it safe (read: will it not nuke my computer) if I do "Complete Removals" on all the packages in the "Not install (residual config)" status area?
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: you could make 2 scripts to set and unset it
[14:13] <arvind_khadri> brutus, you ran nvidia-xconfig as root?
[14:13] <kef> can i set different animations for a program window in compiz or does compiz set animations only based on window type?
[14:13] <brutus> arvind_khadri, Yes, so it did edit the xorg.conf file
[14:13] <Dreamglider> ok that fixed the apt-get, now how do i get synaptic package manager to work behind the proxy ?
[14:13] <raven> gnea i know but i only need the main funktion and this works but only one funktion does not work
[14:14] <arvind_khadri> brutus, ok then now try running sudo nvidia-settings
[14:14] <Gnea> raven: I was going to suggest ##hardware, but it looks like you've found it already
[14:14] <arvind_khadri> brutus, sorry gksu in place of sudo
[14:14] <ActionParsnip> Dreamglider: theres a setting in the gui, i'd use apt-get when you need the proxy and synaptic when you dont, it may make life easier if they use their own settings
[14:14] <Gnea> raven: they would know more about it than we would
[14:15] <raven> hm
[14:15] <raven> does not matter i can work with the pad and that's important
[14:15] <raven> tank you...

[14:18] <arvind_khadri> brutus, do one thing, just try this. in the section modes of screen add the resolution you want. and then restart X , it may work
[14:19] <brutus> arvind_khadri, but why don't i get the splash screen of nvidia in the start?

[14:20] <hey`> alright I'm gonna see VLC, thanks Gnea

[14:34] <TonyTheTiger> citezen42alpha i am learning unix in classes so would i be making a mistake to practice the commands on my ubuntu os?
[14:34] <citizen42alpha> TonyTheTiger: no.
[14:34] <TonyTheTiger> or is the command line different?
[14:34] <citizen42alpha> very similar.

[14:43] <Chris___> I am about to set up 10 new email and internet servers for small business. Is 8.10 a stable solution?
[14:43] <iulianpojar> yes
[14:44] <scunizi> Chris___: 8.04 is LTS.. long term support.. 8.10 is supported for 18 mths.. LTS for 3 years on the desktop and 5 on the server
[14:44] <scunizi> Chris___: if you use 8.10 you will be forced into an upgrade in 18 mths or less. Not so with 8.04
[14:46] <Chris___> I am ex fedora and found I had to upgrade every 12 months. I really like the package management on ubuntu.

[14:50] <mfdavid> is there a simple way to create a script that repeat my steps? Like this: move the mouse, click to open a software, wait x seconds, clicks on a button, etc, ... ?
[14:50] <Kottizen> scunizi: Ok :)
[14:53]  * scunizi thinks everyone is sleeping today.. must be the lul before the next release. 
[14:53] <HoNgOuRu> hi, I cannot open the cdrom drive after burning ,,,, this is the fstab line...        /dev/cdrom   /media/cdrom   auto   rw,noauto,user,exec    0 0
[14:53] <HoNgOuRu> someone knows what is happening here?
[14:53] <Seper> It's always interesting to have a new release around tax time.
[14:54] <scunizi> HoNgOuRu: what version of ubutnu are you using?
[14:54] <H__> question : parted/gparted does not recognize my UFS partitions, while the MAN pages claim UFS is supported. Any ideas ?
[14:54] <Seper> HoNgOuRu: You might want to try "users" instead of "user"
[14:54] <gldtn> hi alll..
[14:55] <gldtn> When you put something to start on Session should it start as the user or root?
[14:55] <scunizi> user
[14:55] <Seper> gldtn: user
[14:55] <oCean_> Seper: HoNgOuRu no not userS
[14:56] <H__> HoNgOuRu what does syslog mention ?
[14:56] <Droopsta> Where can I get the autoSuperGrub.exe? I keep going to websites that are down. I really need to get back intop Ubuntu and the live cd method isnt working for me. Help PLease.
[14:56] <Huufarted> question for you guys.  I have 2x '[cron] <defunct>' processes, but...  I have no crons set up.  Anybody else ever seen this?
[14:56] <adante> hi
[14:57] <H__> Huufarted I have not, but the system has cron jobs of itself too
[14:57] <gldtn> ok.. I put MPD to start on session.. and I use Sonata as the client.. but it seems no to read my music database because MPD is starting as root instead of the user.. so I have to kill MPD and start as user to get my music database to show.. how can I solve this?
[14:57] <Huufarted> H__, there are no crontabs in /var/spool/cron/crontabs
[14:57] <adante> i just mounted an ntfs drive of a former vista install, the "Documents and Settings" folder is empty?
[14:58] <Seper> Droopsta: http://www.google.com/search?q="autosupergrub.exe"
[14:58] <Huufarted> H__, so unless the system has it's crontabs under another location and doesn't actually use 'cron' then there are none.
[14:58] <H__> Huufarted those are user crontabs, look in /etc/cron*
[14:58] <oCean_> Huufarted: ls -ald /etc/cron*
[14:58] <Huufarted> H__, thanks, checking it
[14:58] <ANTRat> adante: vista uses /Users
[14:58] <Huufarted> oCean_, H__, thanks you guys.  You have shown me the light.  Any clue why they'd be defunct?
[14:58] <H__> track the PID's
[14:59] <H__> using syslog. cron states whcat it is starting there
[14:59] <Seper> Droopsta: That's about the best I can do, short of looking at every webpage for you
[14:59] <Huufarted> H__, don't need syslog.  Found the offending processes.
[14:59] <adante> ANTRat: ah yes, thanks! (windows support in #ubuntu, love this channel)
[14:59] <Huufarted> H__, just needed to ps -ef and grep for the PPID
[15:00] <H__> Huufarted what did you find ?
[15:00] <Huufarted> H__, I really appreciate the help.  It's a custom (as in non-official) fan control .sh acpi script to control fan settings in a eee
[15:00] <Droopsta> Seper:thanks, I'll look through the web sites and find something
[15:01] <H__> Huufarted you're welcome
[15:01] <Seper> I farted
[15:01]  * Seper blushes
[15:01] <mfdavid> is there a simple way to create a script that repeat my steps? Like this: move the mouse, click to open a software, wait x seconds, clicks on a button, etc, ... ? Like a BOT system or something like that... ?
[15:02] <Seper> mfdavid: xmacro
[15:02] <gotcha> Just installed und tried gfxboot for grub, but now i've got a huge problem :(
[15:02] <gotcha> sudo grub-install /dev/sda4
[15:02] <gotcha> The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly.
[15:02] <gotcha> someone can help?
[15:02] <FloodBot2> gotcha: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:02] <mfdavid> Seper: thanks!
[15:02] <Seper> mfdavid: apt-get install xmacro
[15:02] <Seper> mfdavid: Then search the net for how to use it
[15:02] <H__> gotcha grub-install says file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly ?
[15:03] <gotcha> yes
[15:03] <mfdavid> Seper:  :-) thanks
[15:03] <gotcha> and i meant sda and not sda4
[15:03] <gotcha> just mistyped
[15:03] <H__> gotcha then maybe your MBR is not changed yet
[15:03] <fasta> How can I make Java applets work in Firefox? Every applet I run gives some kind of exception. It could be that all the applets are wrong, but I think it's this system.
[15:03] <rconan> is it a known bug that the power applet always shows that my computer is running on battery power?
[15:03] <krishnan> hi i have a netgear wi-fi connected to 2 computers and i have bought a new hytech switch and connected it to the wi-fi router. but the connection in the switch is not working
[15:03] <gotcha> how can i change it then?
[15:03] <xocolate> could someone help me with samba+cups ???
[15:03] <krishnan> hi i have a netgear wi-fi connected to 2 computers and i have bought a new hytech switch and connected it to the wi-fi router. but the connection in the switch is not working, pls help me.
[15:04] <gotcha> H__ how can i change it then?
[15:04] <gotcha> should i just reboot?
[15:04] <H__> gotcha you can of course retry with sudo grub-install /dev/sda
[15:04] <gotcha> doesn't work
[15:04] <gotcha> same failure
[15:04] <Seper> fasta: I recommend trying different tutorials on the internet. Some skip necessary steps.
[15:05] <Huufarted> rconan, over over the battery icon.
[15:05] <H__> gotcha what does "update-grub" say ?
[15:05] <Huufarted> rconan, does it say anything about ac power?
[15:05] <gotcha> [: 25: ==: unexpected operator
[15:05] <gotcha> exec: 25: -a: not found
[15:05] <H__> gotcha eek !
[15:05] <gotcha> when i type update-grub
[15:05] <gotcha> eek?
[15:05] <gotcha> ^^
[15:06] <H__> gotcha you get typical errors 'that should not happen' :-P
[15:06] <gotcha> hm
[15:06] <gotcha> that sounds.... not so good.
[15:06] <gotcha> :(
[15:06] <Huufarted> gotcha, careful typing stuff on multiple lines like that.  The floodbots might interpret it as pasting a bunch of text.
[15:06] <H__> gotcha are you sure grub was installed correctly ? (debian package)
[15:06] <gotcha> oh, ye, I'm too used to it :(
[15:06] <Daft_Punk> I am looking for an xchat script that will tell me all the nicknames a certain IP has used (a seen script)
[15:06] <shavin> in this fstab entry does 'noatime' conflicts with 'relatime'?what do the two options mean?....... UUID=2e30bac8-06a7-4aec-a6f1-3047124fb273 /               reiserfs noatime,nodiratime,notail,relatime 0       1
[15:07] <gotcha> ye, i used http://kanotix.com/debian/pool/main/g/grub-gfxboot/grub-gfxboot_0.97-11_amd64.deb
[15:07] <H__> gotcha I have no idea if that's a supported one. I always use blunt 'apt-get install grub'
[15:08] <scunizi> gotcha: if you have multiple drives install grub on all of them.. most likely it's in the wrong place when compared to the boot order in bios
[15:08] <xocolate> REGISTER senhairc xocolate@bol.com.br
[15:08] <rconan> Huufarted: the icon has changed to the AC power one but it says "Computer is running on battery power" when I mouse over it
[15:08] <scunizi> !register | xocolate
[15:08] <gotcha> scunizi just got 1 hard drive with vista 64bit and ubuntu 64 bit on it
[15:08] <rconan> Huufarted: it has also changed to tell me the charge time instead of the discharge time
[15:08] <FloodBot2> !netsplit
[15:08] <gotcha> H__ hmmm I thought 64bit would be the right
[15:09] <gotcha> H__ should i try sudo apt-get install grub ?
[15:10] <H__> gotcha I think that's your safest bet now, yes
[15:10] <Huufarted> rconan, it sounds like you may not have the appropriate acpi drivers installed and set up.  Getting them set up would certainly not be my area of expertise, though.  :(
[15:10] <H__> gotcha do you have any indications that your MBR has already been updated ? If so you cannot boot at this time, so fix it first.
[15:10] <Huufarted> rconan, try this.  Search on google:  <computer model> acpi ubuntu
[15:11] <H__> gotcha If your MBR is untouched (and the rest of your bootloader is also still OK) then nothing bad has happened yet
[15:11] <Huufarted> rconan, see if any of the results show what you're experiencing now
[15:11] <gotcha> Hm, i dont know, im afraid of rebooting H__
[15:11] <gotcha> :)
[15:12] <beannieman> when someone has a minute can someone tell me what should happen when you type "startx"
[15:12] <H__> gotcha heh :) what boot loader did you use before your gfxboot install ?
[15:13] <gotcha> H__ grub :)
[15:13] <mattze> list
[15:13] <gotcha> http://rafb.net/p/EqJS9837.html
[15:13] <Seper> gotcha: See the first four steps on this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[15:13] <IdentifyTarget> I installed a program, lirc, which now starts everytime I boot. where can I edit the file that calls this during boot?
[15:13] <H__> gotcha that paste looks fine
[15:14] <gotcha> k, I'll try a reboot now
[15:14] <gotcha> wish me luck :)
[15:14] <H__> gotcha hope you have a recovery cd
[15:14] <Seper> ha
[15:14] <Seper> I hope you have a...  doh
[15:15] <Seper> !netsplit
[15:15] <rconan> Huufarted: I would have thought that if ACPI wasn't working then none of the other features would work
[15:15] <H__> Seper :)
[15:15] <Seper> Just testing :)
[15:15] <Huufarted> rconan, I didn't say it wasn't working, I said not sett up properly.  :)
[15:15] <Huufarted> sett=set
[15:16] <H__> question : parted/gparted does not recognize my UFS partitions, while the MAN pages claim UFS is supported. Any ideas ?
[15:16] <rconan> Huufarted: there's no discussion of my problem on google from what I can see
[15:16] <Huufarted> rconan, I'm sorry but beyond that there's nothing that I personally can do for you.  It's out of my reach at this point, sorry.  :(
[15:17] <KDB9000> Is there a way to set up ubuntu to check my e-mail in Evolution without having to have Evolution up?
[15:18] <H__> KDB9000 you use mbox ? imap ? pop3 ?
[15:18] <KDB9000> H__, Imap right now, their might be more to later on
[15:18] <vu> Q: I have P4 2.4 with 512 mem, the livecd boots goes through the entire process, the progress bar completes and then it gets stuck. Nothing shows up, neither a Login screen or GNOME? Whis is this happening?  Checked the CD, it is fine.
[15:19] <H__> KDB9000 maybe an xbiff descendant can do what you want
[15:19] <Seper> KDB9000: Perhaps running Evolution on another desktop might work for you?
[15:19] <rconan> Huufarted: no problem
[15:19] <Huufarted> KDB9000, are you just wanting it to display a notification if there is mail or do you want it to actually download it and store it without starting up?
[15:19] <H__> gotcha welcome back
[15:20] <KDB9000> Huufarted, notification, without evolution being up
[15:20] <gotcha> H__ thanks for the help, obviously it worked :-)
[15:21] <Huufarted> KDB9000, right on.  I'm not sure Evolution is going to need to be used at all.  I can only imagine there would be other apps that can simply check for email and display a notification.
[15:21] <gotcha> so another try to get a gfxboot.. :)
[15:21] <IdentifyTarget> where can I edit the file that starts daemons on boot?
[15:22] <n8tuser> KDB9000-> sort of basic idea, how one determines if there is mail in the mail server if one does not log on to the mail server? i dont think you can without logging on
[15:22] <KDB9000> Huufarted, there is, but it says you need to have Evolution up
[15:23] <anonymous1112> KDB, is it for gmail?
[15:23] <Huufarted> KDB9000, I found an answer for you I think.  sudo apt-get install mail-notification
[15:23] <Huufarted> KDB9000, if you just want to see the app, http://nongnu.org/mailnotify
[15:24] <KDB9000> Huufarted, that is the one that says you need evolution up to check it.
[15:24] <anonymous1112> KDB9000 IS IT FOR GMAIL
[15:24] <Larah>  /newserver irc.astroarchaeologie.de
[15:24] <Huufarted> KDB9000, I think it runs either independently or with Evolution
[15:25] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, no caps please. the Imap account is a gmail account yes, but I might be adding other accounts that aren't gmail.
[15:25] <anonymous1112> http://kcheckgmail.sourceforge.net/
[15:25] <anonymous1112> i only used caps because you ignored me
[15:25] <Huufarted> regardless, don't use caps
[15:25] <Huufarted> !caps | anonymous1112
[15:26] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, because i didn't see it. you need to have the person full username and it will highlight it for them on their screen
[15:26] <Huufarted> KDB9000, I think the mail-notification is the app that suits what you're looking for most
[15:26] <KDB9000> Huufarted, I was hoping there was an app that could be used without having evolution be up.
[15:26] <anonymous1112> my 0 key is sticky
[15:27] <Seper> KDB9000: There is a plugin for firefox "webmail notifier", that checks gmail, yahoo, and others at a given minute interval
[15:27] <anonymous1112> Seper is right also
[15:27] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, tab works, at least for my xchat in my Ubuntu system. type part of the name and hit tab and it might fill in the right name
[15:27] <anonymous1112> im not using xchat brother
[15:27] <Huufarted> KDB9000, I don't think Evolution needs to be up with this one.  There's nothing on the site that indicates this.
[15:28] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, it might work for other IRC clients as well.
[15:28] <anonymous1112> KDB9000:  awesome it does work, thanks,. is that KDE app of any use - http://kcheckgmail.sourceforge.net/
[15:28] <_VIM_> Tab completion works on most IRC clients these days
[15:28] <anonymous1112> _VIM_: thanks also
[15:28] <Daft_Punk> I am looking for an xchat script that will tell me all the nicknames a certain IP has used (a seen script)
[15:28] <sky_> anyone know how i can record my desktop ?
[15:28] <archman> Can I just comment out the entry of /boot/grub/menu.lst that I don't need and I don't want it to appear in my GRUB?
[15:28] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, I am not using KDE and if possible, don't want to add KDE apps.
[15:28] <PoloNorte> !ubuntu-br
[15:29] <anonymous1112> KDB9000: ok just trying to help
[15:29] <Huufarted> _VIM_, it works in MegaIRC, BitchX (It's the name, sorry for the language), and mIRC in Windows as well.
[15:29] <KDB9000> Huufarted, that link you sent, didn't work
[15:29] <mr_daniel> I also think that evolution does NOT to be on to make the mail notification work properly. But despite that I have open my evolution every time and put it on my 4th desktop because I use the calender and other features.
[15:29] <H__> archman yes
[15:29] <Flannel> archman: Which entries are they?
[15:29] <PoloNorte> ubuntu-br
[15:29] <dinesh372> can i access the the encryption algorithm which ubuntu uses for encryption
[15:29] <storbeck> Daft_Punk: /join #xchat
[15:29] <PoloNorte> #ubuntu-br
[15:29] <_VIM_> Huufarted: yep
[15:29] <Huufarted> KDB9000, sorry, I suck at typing sometimes:  Homepage: http://www.nongnu.org/mailnotify/
[15:29] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, thx for the help, worst comes to worst i will load up a KDE one.
[15:29] <sky_> anyone know how to use "recordMyDesktop" ?
[15:30] <sipior> dinesh372: gnupg is probably what you want
[15:30] <sky_> i am troll or i nvm
[15:30] <anonymous1112> KDB9000: what about cGmail.  http://cgmail.tuxfamily.org/
[15:30] <Seper> sky_: I've used it before
[15:30] <dinesh372> sipior: where can i find it
[15:30] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, last I knew, it didn't work with google apps (the gmail account is for school)
[15:30] <sky_> Seper: and how ? can you say me a correct command ?
[15:31] <sipior> dinesh372: "sudo apt-get install gnupg"
[15:31] <hwilde> help my monitor just keeps saying "cannot display this video mode - optimum 1440x900 @60"  I have tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and reverting xorg.conf, and hardcoding that resolution.  what do I do ??
[15:31] <KDB9000> Huufarted, do you know how to make Evolution start at login and open in a different desktop?
[15:31] <blakeshrt> anyoanyone here used torque/maui/pbs before?
[15:31] <Seper> sky_: install gtk-recordmydesktop

[15:32] <hwilde> Oli```, /etc/hosts    i mean
[15:32] <storbeck> hwilde: Are you sure your Monitor isn't hosed?
[15:32] <Huufarted> KDB9000, I apologize but I do not.
[15:32] <Oli```> hwilde: cheers
[15:32] <Seper> sky_: Do you have the gtk front end installed?
[15:32] <hwilde> storbeck, it displays the login screen appropriately and ctrl+alt+f1 tty appropriately
[15:32] <ravster> Hello all
[15:32] <sky_> ofc
[15:32] <KDB9000> anonymous1112, well, I did hear they were going to add google apps to it. I would like to keep it in Evolution (it is easier when i am at home on a slow connection)
[15:32] <Huufarted> KDB9000, I'm trying out that mail program myself.  stand by.
[15:32] <wh4vn> I have a problem with skype on Ubuntu, I cannot make call or receive calls from others, error is: problem with audio playback? any idea for help? Thank you
[15:33] <ravster> My gnome panel just disappeared, and I was hoping someone might be able to help me get it back.
[15:33] <Seper> Applications -> Sound & Video -> gtk-recordMyDesktop
[15:33] <storbeck> hwilde: pastebin your xorg
[15:33] <Seper> sky_: Applications -> Sound & Video -> gtk-recordMyDesktop
[15:33] <evantandersen> wh4vn go to skype options > Sound and change the input outputs making test calls inbetween
[15:33] <Flimm> ravster: log out and log in
[15:33] <sky_> Seper: ah....gtk fronted means gui appz ?
[15:33] <evantandersen>  could i run dual monitors off of two different graphics cards?
[15:33] <Seper> sky_: yes
[15:33] <ravster> Flimm: tried that. I had to do a ctrl-alt-backspace to get out, but it still didn't fix the problem.
[15:34] <KDB9000> Seper, do you know how to set up evolution to start up at login and open into a different desktop?
[15:34] <archman> H__ thanks, Flannel, I've got this: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d3d5a7721 ;;; I want to leave just 2.6.27-13 and 2.6.27-12. Do I also need to "sudo update-grub" after editing it in gedit?
[15:34] <DarkKnight> in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox#Sharing%20Folders%20Between%20Host%20and%20Guest  they mentioned about client XP and client linux systems...does client mean guest OS or host OS
[15:34] <sky_> seper: ok ill try....i like gui appz more than command line
[15:34] <dinesh372> sipior: i got what u want to say but i want to know how can i access the encryption algorithm
[15:34] <evantandersen>  could i run dual monitors off of two different graphics cards?,  i mean i would have a radeon 3200 HD and an MSI card. Both work with ubuntu, could i use them at the same time to drive dual monitors?
[15:35] <Flimm> I'm trying to install hotstuff (server) on my computer
[15:35] <Seper> KDB9000: Starting up at login is easy. Put it in Session. Putting it on another desktop probably has to be done manually.
[15:35] <Flimm> Any idea how I can get a cgi script to run? I'm new to servers.
[15:35] <sky_> seper: thank you
[15:35] <Flannel> archman: To remove older kernels, what you want to do is just remove the older linux-image-[version]-generic packages in your favorite package manager.
[15:35] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[15:35] <anonymous1112> what happened there
[15:35] <_VIM_> another netsplit
[15:36] <archman> Flannel, no, I just want to remove or comment out those entries to not see them in GRUB boot loader.
[15:36] <anonymous1112> netsplit... interesting
[15:36] <mib_sk8lmgg2> hi all, my laptop is not getting connected to my desktop using ethernet since last night, plz help
[15:36] <hwilde> storbeck, http://pastebin.com/f3bacb400
[15:36] <Flannel> archman: But you want the kernels to still be there?  Any particular reason?
[15:36] <archman> Flanner, I don't want to remove kernels (did that job before, btw...)
[15:36] <Huufarted> KDB9000, I just tried mail-notification and it works pretty well.  It does NOT require evolution, but it does support functionality with it.
[15:36] <maurice__> hello
[15:36] <KDB9000> Seper, there has to be a way to tell it what desktop to start up in.
[15:36] <Seper> Flimm: You have to make it executable. chmod 555 file
[15:36] <DarkKnight> anyone help me in this in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox#Sharing%20Folders%20Between%20Host%20and%20Guest  they mentioned about client XP and client linux systems...does client mean guest OS or host OS
[15:37] <archman> Flannel: apt-get autoremove does not want to remove them, there are still some hardware that uses them, so I heard...
[15:37] <mib_sk8lmgg2> it just doesnt detect the automatic or manual settings like it used to do earlier
[15:37] <KDB9000> Huufarted, I plan on trying it out. I thought I already added it but I guess not.
[15:37] <a3Dman> what's special on the ubuntu DVD ?
[15:37] <Seper> KDB9000: I'm sure there is a way it can be done, but I don't think it can be done easily. :\
[15:37] <a3Dman> got all packages or what ?
[15:37] <sky_> Seper: i got error
[15:37] <archman> a3Dman: not all but lots of 'em
[15:37] <Huufarted> KDB9000, it's under the Internet section of your Applications menu
[15:37] <Flimm> OK, I need to find it now!
[15:37] <a3Dman> thx archman
[15:37] <sky_> Seper: Error while parsing the arguments
[15:37] <archman> np
[15:38] <Seper> sky_: sudo apt-get install gtk-recordmydesktop
[15:38] <Flannel> archman: No... that doesn't make a whole lot of sense.  Whichever one you've booted to you're using, and the other ones are just sitting on disk.  Anyway, another way you can make it so GRUB only displays the most recent two is by setting howmany=2 (line 61 of that paste) and then sudo update-grub
[15:38] <Seper> sky_: You have that installed?
[15:38] <sky_> Seper: i have it :)
[15:38] <Seper> sky_: ok
[15:39] <hwilde> storbeck, anything?
[15:39] <sky_> but if i run it it says : eror while parsing the arguments
[15:39] <storbeck> hwilde: Do not use the @60
[15:39] <Seper> sky_: Use pastebin.com to paste us your error
[15:39] <archman> Flannel: tnx! But can I also comment 'em out?
[15:39] <_VIM_> paste.ubuntu.com Seper
[15:39] <sky_> no it say only this phrase
[15:40] <hwilde> storbeck, same thing.  displays the login prompt, then monitor says cannot display blahblahblah
[15:40] <Flannel> archman: You could, but that won't last past your next update-grub (your changes will be overwritten).  update-grub happens automatically whenever you install/update a new kernel, for instance.
[15:40] <KDB9000> Huufarted, well that isn't good. mail-noifty makes evolution crash
[15:40] <Seper> sky_: What phrase?
[15:40] <Huufarted> KDB9000, mail-notify or mail-notification?
[15:41] <Seper> sky_: Error while parsing the arguments?
[15:41] <sky_> Seper: Recording is finished. recordMyDesktop has exited with status 256. Description: Error while parsing the arguments
[15:41] <Extreme_b> Hi, can someone please advise me on this : in my office, it does'nt have an internet access therefore whenever i wanna installed eg. nfs-kernel-servers package, i do not know still which are the files that are needed in order to let nfs works. any link that i can go to reference?
[15:41] <KDB9000> Huufarted, mail-notification
[15:41] <Seper> sky_: Don't give it arguments?
[15:41] <Huufarted> KDB9000, sorry.  :(  I have no suggestions for you.
[15:41] <Flimm> found it at /usr/lib/cgi-bin/hotstuff-dxs and it is executable, Seper
[15:41] <sky_> Seper: no
[15:41] <archman> Flannel: OK, I'll try. What if I screw something up and cannot enter boot loader no longer? :D What's to be done? (Just to make sure ;))
[15:41] <Joker_-_> hey, how can I find out if a computer has SATA controller (I dont have physical acces to the computer)? I'd be looking for something like lspci...
[15:41] <Seper> sky_: Are you running it from the commandline?
[15:42] <sky_> seper:no ...gui
[15:42] <storbeck> hwilde: try adding ` vert-refresh 60 ` in your monitor section, and taking out the @60
[15:42] <perlsyntax> how do i print a pdf file on my printer in ubuntu 8.10?
[15:42] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, what was the question with VirtualBox?
[15:42] <Extreme_b> Hi, can someone please advise me on this : in my office, it does'nt have an internet access therefore whenever i wanna installed eg. nfs-kernel-servers package, i do not know still which are the files that are needed in order to let nfs works. any link that i can go to reference?
[15:42] <Seper> Flimm: I'm not really sure then. It could be an error in your script?
[15:42] <perlsyntax> i haveing prob doing it
[15:42] <hwilde> storbeck, http://pastebin.com/f1a0aeb07   look at the end of this log... I think maybe the monitor is fried.  why would it flicker edid
[15:42] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox#Sharing%20Folders%20Between%20Host%20and%20Guest  they mentioned about client XP and client linux systems...does client mean guest OS or host OS
[15:42] <Seper> sky_: Run it from the commandline and see what happens\
[15:42] <Flimm> Seper: I'm a total beginner, how do I even know if the script's running already?
[15:43] <Seper> sky_: gtk-recordMyDesktop
[15:43] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; i am on hardy...XP is on my virtual machine
[15:43] <perlsyntax> how do i print a pdf file off my print
[15:43] <Flannel> archman: After you modify stuff, it won't really affect anything until you boot next.  So... update-grub if relevant, and make sure stuff looks decent.  Also, if for some reason you screw stuff up you can recover by manually editing your grub entry from the grub menu itself.
[15:43] <hwilde> storbeck, lines 505-528 over and over EDID registerd / removed / registered / removed  :(
[15:43] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: lspci should dhow you sata controller if any
[15:43] <ganesh1> how to install vlc?
[15:43] <perlsyntax> anyone know about print pdf from the pc
[15:43] <Seper> Flimm: ps aux | less
[15:43] <archman> Flannel: Also, do I need to update-grub after commenting out?
[15:43] <sky_> Seper: it say "Capturing" but i dont know how to stop it..if i want stop iit
[15:43] <perlsyntax> i mean printer
[15:43]  * _VIM_ hides from all the netsplits
[15:43] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: humk, then it doesnt have one I guess
[15:44] <Seper> Flimm: That will show the script if it's currently running
[15:44] <Flannel> archman: If you update-grub after commenting out, your comments will be removed.
[15:44] <perlsyntax> hello
[15:44] <bobbob1016> Is it relatively safe to get and run code from google code, as in code.google.com?  Basically this http://code.google.com/p/mythtv-for-iphone/
[15:44] <anonymous1112> client os is just another way of saying desktop operating system
[15:44] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, well the first command it setting up the folder for share (on the host, hardy). the clients are referring to your guest OS (XP in this case)
[15:44] <ganesh1> how to install vlc?
[15:44] <Seper> sky_: Did you make sure to run the "gtk" one? gtk-recordMyDesktop
[15:44] <hwilde> !vlc
[15:44] <archman> Flannel, oh...:) Thanks for your help, I'll try it now. So just gedit...
[15:44] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: that's the line from my lspci -->> 00:16.1 SATA controller: ALi Corporation ULi M5288 SATA
[15:44] <bobbob1016> ganesh1, http://www.google.com/search?q=vlc+ubuntu&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:unofficial&client=firefox-a  First thing on google
[15:45] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: yeah I tryed that but since I couldnt find anything concerning sata I tought maybe it was listed some other way...
[15:45] <sky_> Seper: ah not gtk
[15:45] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: guess that p4 is too old
[15:45] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; i executed in my XP command prompt and i got that no network found
[15:45] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: paste your lspci and i'll take a look
[15:45] <Flimm> Seper: so cgi scripts are the same as normal processes?
[15:45] <anonymous1112> bobbob1016: not very kinda that ganesh
[15:45] <Seper> Flimm: yes
[15:45] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, did you make the share and tell VB that you want to use that share with XP (on your host system)?
[15:46] <sky_> Seper: this command open the gui appz...and same error if i run it
[15:46] <hwilde> storbeck, vert-refresh is not legit.  waht's  the syntax
[15:46] <bobbob1016> anonymous1112, ?  What do you mean that he left before I could !patience him?
[15:46] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; i executed the commands as in that link
[15:46] <anonymous1112> bobbob1016: i believe that is the case
[15:46] <Seper> sky_: Same commandline error? Complaining about arguments?
[15:46] <FloodBot3> !netsplit
[15:46] <FloodBot2> !netsplit
[15:46] <sky_> seper: no :)
[15:47] <Seper> sky_: Use pastebin.com to paste the output to us.
[15:47] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: nah theres defenitly no sata ports there... I see the ide controller but no sata controller
[15:47] <Flimm> OK, I get this error when running the script: http://paste.ubuntu.com/125846/
[15:47] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: that computer is simply too old. thanks tho
[15:47] <sky_> Seper: no output
[15:48] <Seper> Flimm: It may mean for you to check line 411 in your script
[15:48] <erUSUL> Joker_-_: no problem
[15:48] <vu> I have a P4 2.4 with 512 mem.  ubuntu livecd freezes just before it can show the login screen? Why is this? Checked the cd, no problems with it.
[15:49] <sky_> Seper: wait i make screenshot
[15:49] <Seper> Flimm: I'm not a cgi guy
[15:49] <gotcha> Hey, can someone tell me command in XCHAT for a button when i right-click a user? The button is called "poke!" and when i click it, it should make /me pokes %a but it doenst work :)
[15:49] <Joker_-_> erUSUL: do you have any idea why an AMD 2600+ gives less bogomips than a p4 1.8?
[15:49] <Ienorand> ... what's going on?
[15:49] <Seper> WTF is up with the servers today?
[15:49] <_VIM_> !ot | gotcha
[15:49] <anonymous1112> vu im running ubuntu on a 900mhz intel atom with 512mg ram and 4gig hdd, so it should be fast enough
[15:49] <sky_> Seper:http://obrazok.eu/files/wboa53pje8fjp7dyew3i.png
[15:50] <Flimm> Seper: bah, do you know a chatroom where I can get more server specific advice?
[15:50] <Seper> Flimm: #perl
[15:50] <dared> vu: maybe your graphics card?
[15:50] <Flimm> Thanks
[15:50] <anonymous1112> vu: its probably hardware conflict. try another machine
[15:51] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, sorry, had to take care of something. try adding the the share using the GUI
[15:51] <_VIM_> Flimm: theres #Ubuntu-server too
[15:51] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, on your host system
[15:51] <vu> anonymous1112: thats the thing I don't understand, it always gets stuck before the login screen. I can see the mouse pointer on the screen and can move it too.  But nothing else happens?
[15:51] <Flimm> thanks _vim_
[15:51] <vu> older version of knoppix works fine.
[15:51] <anonymous1112> vu: how long are you waiting
[15:51] <archman> Flannel: looking good? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d764fe4ac
[15:51] <thanhngoc> e
[15:51] <thanhngoc> co ai khong
[15:51] <thanhngoc> ?
[15:52] <vu> i have waited for as long as 5 mins before restarting the mac.
[15:52] <sky_> Seper: no idea ?
[15:52] <Seper> sky_: Can you take a screen shot of the terminal for me too
[15:52] <anonymous1112> ok... possibly a hardware conflict if its on an x86 mac
[15:53] <sky_> Seper: no errors in terminal or anything what can help you :>
[15:53] <Seper> hmmm
[15:53] <vu> I see the orange progress bar, then the orange screen then the small circular pointer and nothing happens.
[15:53] <sky_> Seper: btw which command show me which window manager i have ?
[15:53] <anonymous1112> vu: is it still spinning. maybe try Alt F1
[15:54] <Seper> sky_: ps aux | less
[15:54] <Seper> sky_: It looks like gnome to me
[15:54] <vu> anonymous1112: it stops spinning, but it is there, sometimes it changes to a normal pointer and then nothing happens.
[15:54] <sky_> Seper: its gnome...
[15:54] <jodas> Does anyone in here have a ath9k module for their card?
[15:55] <sky_> Seper: i think i have problems because i have a Compiz ?
[15:55] <anonymous1112> vu: try an alt f1 to manually bring up menu
[15:55] <jodas> Does anyone have an ath9k module?
[15:55] <ZitchDog> I am trying to change file permissions for only directories in a path using "find path -type d | chmod 755" but it messes up on directories with spaces in their names... how do i handle this?
[15:55] <Seper> sky_: Perhaps: apt-get update; apt-get install recordmydesktop
[15:55] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, did you just copy and past the code from the link or did you retype iy?
[15:55] <vu> anonymous1112: what do I do after the alt + F1?
[15:56] <sky_> Seper: no update...system was updated before 30 minutes :D....and i have recordmydesktop installed via apt ofc
[15:56] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; i copy pasted
[15:57] <Seper> sky_: Try running to see if it will upgrade: sudo apt-get install recordmydesktop
[15:58] <sky_> seper: its latest version :p
[15:58] <jodas> Does anyone have an ath9k module?
[15:58] <jodas> Does anyone have an ath9k module?
[15:58] <jodas> Does anyone have an ath9k module?
[15:58] <jodas> Oops.
[15:58] <sky_> jodas: dont spamm please....
[15:58] <jodas> My bad.
[15:58] <_VIM_> jodas: :/
[15:58] <sinnadyr> does anyone got repeat?
[15:58] <sky_> jodas: i dont have :)
[15:58] <anonymous1112> vu: If you cant bring up the main menu with an Alt F1. at the LiveCD initial boot screen: press Select F6 for more options then add the following option to the beginning of the options list: break=top Press enter to start booting Ubuntu will start booting, but kick you out to a command prompt; at the prompt type these two commands: first "modprobe piix" (dont use the "s), then type exit  the LiveCD should boot normally.
[15:58] <Seper> sky_: Well, that doesn't seem good then. :\
[15:58] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, ok, well I don't think your username is your and the shared is in you/folder. so you need to add your own stuff in. or use the GUI and edit the settings of XP. you can point it to your share from there. also make sure you have a network adapter set up and it works inside with XP
[15:58] <oCean_> !anyone | jodas
[15:58] <sky_> jodas: can you try a Ubuntu forums ?
[15:58] <sky_> Seper: and any other program for recording ?
[15:58] <Seper> sky_: Take a picture of terminal: recordMyDesktop
[15:59] <jodas> I checked those.
[15:59] <archman> erUSUL: You here? I need help about GRUB.
[15:59] <sky_> Seper: i pastebin it ok ?
[15:59] <Seper> ok
[15:59] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; that i copied it and changed them accordingly...later on in the code you see some commands to be executed in command prompt that doesn't work
[15:59] <jodas> I use opensuse but I can't go in there because they banned me.
[15:59] <sky_> lol :D
[15:59] <LjL> jodas: that's your problem, this channel is for *Ubuntu* support
[15:59] <Seper> sky_: recordmydesktop is the best recorder i know of
[15:59] <sky_> jodas: you must be polite
[16:00] <jodas> I am.
[16:00] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, you have the VB GUI right, or is this on a server?
[16:00] <sky_> Seper: http://fpaste.org/paste/4943
[16:00] <anonymous1112> vu: did u get that
[16:00] <sky_> jodas: i ask if the can unban you ok ? :)))
[16:00] <jodas> No.
[16:00] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; i have the GUI
[16:00] <jodas> Screw them.
[16:00] <LjL> !language | jodas
[16:00] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; one question..how do i get this XP a bigger screen that's full screen
[16:01] <archman> bazhang, you here maybe?
[16:01] <mustangg2> Is the "create usb startup disc" an installable option?
[16:01] <Seper> sky_: Run: recordMyDesktop --no-sound
[16:01] <sky_> Seper: i tried already run it with this - - no - sound and no wm...it say capturing but i dont know where he save video
[16:01] <sipior> archman: best just to address your question to the channel at large
[16:02] <Seper> sky_: oh
[16:02] <archman> Is this looking OK to reboot? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d764fe4ac
[16:02] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, ok, open the GUI and go into your XP's settings (the Virtual machine can't be running, Host+F, host is normal right ctrl) and go to "shared folders". add the shared folder that way
[16:02] <Seper> sky_: type: ls *ogg*
[16:02] <sky_> *ogg* ? :D :D
[16:02] <vu> thx anonymous1112 be back after I try your suggestions.
[16:02] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, did you install the addon tools?
[16:02] <Seper> sky_: It shout have a number after it
[16:03] <anonymous1112> vu: ill wait
[16:03] <Seper> sky_: should*
[16:03] <sky_> Seper: i dont understand
[16:03] <sythem> So I've got a question about spdif if anyone thinks they can help
[16:03] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; which addon??
[16:03] <wh4vn> I can make call in Skype, but noone can hear my voice, I also make some test calls. How can I config Skype to make call normally
[16:03] <anonymous1112> vu: dont take too long, wife is nagging me to go to bed
[16:03] <wh4vn> ?
[16:03] <Seper> sky_: type: ls ~/*ogg*
[16:03] <sky_> but what is *ogg* ? :-O
[16:03] <Seper> sky_: The recorded desktop file should be numbered
[16:03] <archman> sky_ music file format lol
[16:03] <Gnea> sky_: anything with 'ogg' in the name
[16:04] <sipior> archman: the file looks correct, but did you add the comments to the earlier kernel lines?
[16:04] <sky_> ahaaa
[16:04] <Seper> sky_: The file will have ogg in it's name
[16:04] <sky_> i never heard about ogg format sry guys :)
[16:04] <anonymous1112> wh4vn: have you unchecked the skype can control audio levels box
[16:04] <mustangg2> how can I add the make usb-startup option?
[16:04] <Gnea> archman: then it should be *.[Oo][Gg][Gg]
[16:04] <sythem> System: Inspiron e1505 with s-video adapter containg SPDIF audio output. Works in windows. Can't seem to get any signal to come out of it in Ubuntu.
[16:04] <wh4vn> anonymouse1112: not yet
[16:04] <anonymous1112> wh4vn: turn that off and give check your levels
[16:05] <sky_> ls: cannot access /root/*ogg*: No such file or directory
[16:05] <archman> sipior: I'm running 2.6.27-13 now, so I want that and ...-12 to be the entries in boot loader. I don't want to see others.
[16:05] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, the guest additionals. When you start the virtual machine, under device at the bottom is "Install additional". once Windows is up, click that and it will act like there is a CD in the drive. install execute the install and it will install drivers for your VGA, network, sound, etc... and make it seamless (meaning you can move your mouse in and out of the Virtual machine without using the host button)
[16:05] <archman> Gnea: oh, sorry...true.
[16:05] <Seper> sky_: type: ls ~/*ogg*
[16:05] <erUSUL> archman: what's the prblem?
[16:05] <sipior> archman: you can uninstall the older kernels via your package management interface of choice, and the old entries will be removed.
[16:06] <sky_> seper: same phrase
[16:06] <ZitchDog> hey... i need some help, I am trying to change file permissions for only directories in a path using "find path -type d | chmod 755" but it messes up on directories with spaces in their names... how do i handle directories with spaces in their names?
[16:06] <Gnea> sky_: you might prefer this one:  ls ~/*.ogg  or  find ~ -name "*.ogg"
[16:06] <wh4vn> anonymouse1112: no change
[16:06] <Seper> sky_: type: whoami
[16:06] <archman> Well, the new question here then...is it safe to completely remove all the kernels via synaptic that I do not use?
[16:06] <archman> erUSUL ^
[16:06] <archman> sorry
[16:06] <DarkKnight> KDB9000; i dont know anything about that... i am a little new in that
[16:06] <anonymous1112> wh4vn: damn... thats what stumped me...
[16:06] <wh4vn> anonymouse1112: maybe there is something'
[16:06] <sky_> Seper: i am root :-X
[16:07] <sipior> archman: sure, but be careful that you have at least one bootable kernel :-)
[16:07] <wh4vn> anonymouse1112: what? I cannt understand
[16:07] <storbeck> ZitchDog: for file in `find / -type d`; do chmod 755 "$file"; done
[16:07] <anonymous1112> wh4vn: well, my skype wasnt working until i unchecked that box and turned the levels up
[16:07] <anonymous1112> wh4vn: then it decided to work fine
[16:07] <Seper> sky_: root can't access /root/?
[16:07] <archman> sipior: why then autoremove did not suggested to remove 'em?
[16:07] <ZitchDog> thanks storbeck
[16:07] <erUSUL> archman: is safe you only need one installed (the last one) but is not a bad idea to keep one extra just in case you mess something installing third party drivers or whatever
[16:07] <storbeck> np
[16:07] <sky_> Seper: thats funny :D
[16:08] <Seper> sky_: type as regular user: ls ~/*ogg*
[16:08] <KDB9000> DarkKnight, ok, I am guessing that is the problem. You don't have the drivers for your virtual network card so it doesn't work. installing the additionals and restarting should make everything work. then do the windows command to add the share
[16:08] <sipior> archman: older kernels are retained by default. it's good practise to keep known good kernels around, in case a kernel update causes problems.
[16:08] <wh4vn> anonymouse1112: turn the levels up? What does it mean?
[16:08] <Seper> sky_: I assume your not running your desktop as root? or are you?
[16:08] <sky_> Seper: ls: cannot access /home/sky/*ogg*: No such file or directory
[16:08] <storbeck> sky_: What are you trying to find?
[16:08] <sky_> Seper: nooo .
[16:09] <anonymous1112> wh4vn: the volume on your microphone/speakers/ devices
[16:09] <Seper> ok
[16:09] <sky_> Seper: i am not troll as i look
[16:09] <wh4vn> anonymouse1112: I turn it to maximum it cans
[16:09] <storbeck> sky_: ls -al /home/sky/*.ogg
[16:09] <_VIM_> sky_: you're using the word troll incorrectly, you mean "noob"?
[16:09] <anonymous1112> wh4vn: damn, i dont know then boss
[16:09] <Seper> sky_: Run as sky: recordMyDesktop --no-sound
[16:10] <Seper> sky_: Then pastebin the output
[16:10] <anonymous1112> trolling is when you intentionally incite peoples anger
[16:10] <archman> Well, I'm not sure anymore now...cause I've spoken with some guy here, that is also an expert, don't remember his name, but he said that if the autoremove didn't offer them for removal, they might be used by hardware or some stuff...
[16:10] <archman> erUSUL, sorry again, forgot to address ;)
[16:10] <sky_> _VIM_: :o)
[16:11] <erUSUL> archman: well one kernel can not use other kernel's files
[16:11] <_VIM_> this is what a troll is...
[16:11] <_VIM_> !troll
[16:11] <wh4vn> anonymouse1112: ok, thank you1
[16:11] <Seper> I am not a noob as i troll
[16:11] <archman> erUSUL, so, when I'm in this kernel, the older cannot be used anyhow?
[16:11] <erUSUL> archman: nope
[16:12] <sky_> Seper: IT WORKS !
[16:12] <ludo2612> hello
[16:12] <sky_> Seper: tyvm !
[16:12] <Seper> sky_: yay. try the "gtk" version
[16:12] <Joker_-_> Any idea why an AMD 2600+ gives less bogomips than a p4 1.8?
[16:12] <archman> erUSUL, ok, so what do I remove in Synaptic? Do you know the package name (except the version, sure ;))?
[16:13] <sky_> Seper: i try but i think it will be not work
[16:13] <sipior> Joker_-_: bogomips is not an especially reliable indicator of performance :-)
[16:13] <anonymous1112> if anyone is seriously bored, try and watch this for more than one minute : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYvZh-Vcrb0
[16:13] <erUSUL> archman: linux-image-$VERSION
[16:13] <Joker_-_> sipior: humk, and what is?
[16:13] <hipzen> Joker: the AMD doesn't really run @ 2.6GHz
[16:13] <storbeck> !ot | anonymous1112
[16:13] <Seper> sky_: The reason it doesn't work for root, is because root doesn't have control of the GUI.
[16:13] <Joker_-_> hipzen: yeah I know, it's somewhere near 1600mhz
[16:13] <sipior> Joker_-_: that's a complicated question, which depends upon what you want to do with your machine.
[16:13] <sky_> Seper: i try it to run as root
[16:14] <Seper> sky_: I mean, it is sky's desktop, not root's desktop
[16:14] <Seper> sky_: Run as sky: gtk-recordMyDesktop --no-sound
[16:15] <sky_> Seper: no error :ň
[16:15] <anonymous1112> storbeck: only lurkers and idlers in offtopic brother
[16:15] <archman> erUSUL: thank you for your help, sipior, you too! But what if it all messes up? What am I gonna do to fix it? (if I cannot boot anymore? Also, what's the command for the current used kernel displaying in terminal?
[16:15] <storbeck> anonymous1112: I do not care. Do not spam this room or go off-topic.
[16:15] <Seper> sky_: Try running as sky: gtk-recordMyDesktop    # Without --no-sound
[16:15] <BulBulRed> what is a good alternative to sql developer in ubuntu ?
[16:16] <anonymous1112> storbeck: are you channel op
[16:16] <sky_> Seper: no error :D
[16:16] <storbeck> anonymous1112: Read the rules.
[16:16] <hardo-> archman: uname -a to display the kernel info
[16:16] <Seper> sky_: yay
[16:16] <anonymous1112> storbeck: would you kindly answer my question
[16:16] <archman> hardo- tnx ;)
[16:16] <Joker_-_> sipior: I'm swapping 3 machines for different reasons. I have a media center that is way too weak, my desktop is way too powerfull for what I do but the media center is still too weak for using as a desktop so Imma swap it with my NAS server. all in all, nas will become my desktop, media center will become NAS and my desktop will become the mediacenter.
[16:16] <erUSUL> archman: "uname -a" just make sure you have the package "linux-image" installed that is meta-package that depends on the last aviable kernel. that's the only you need
[16:16] <hwilde> anonymous1112, do you have a support question?
[16:16] <sky_> Seper: but thank you :)))
[16:16] <anonymous1112> hwilde: yes
[16:17] <archman> erUSUL: Linux archman-laptop 2.6.27-13-generic #1 SMP Thu Feb 26 07:26:43 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux   OK?
[16:17] <hwilde> anonymous1112, please restate your question on one line
[16:17] <bill> cw=Z]PP;5
[16:17] <sky_> Seper: i go offline bye bye
[16:17] <Seper> sky_: welcome
[16:17] <Pres-Gas> Hey, all.  I am trying to remember if the Ubus enable IPv6 and if they do, does it no longer need the sit0 pseudo-interface?
[16:18] <archman> erUSUL: "linux-image" pack is not installed. How come?
[16:18] <anonymous1112> hwilde: so, i have this computer, and its running xandros, and my wife changed the password. but she forgot what it was.. do i have to format
[16:18] <anoop> hi
[16:18] <Joker_-_> sipior: My choice of swapping boxes is based on "troughput" of the machines. I was testing some other of my servers and figured that the AMD Athlon XP 2600+ was weaker than a P4 1.8, so I was wondering why. I know it's clocked slower but it's supposed to be the equivalent of a 2600mhz from INTEL since it does more operations per cycles.
[16:18] <erUSUL> archman: install it then remove the kernel you do not use
[16:18] <hwilde> anonymous1112, that is not an ubuntu related question.
[16:18] <archman> erUSUL: ok, hope I'll be able to boot up the next time :D
[16:18] <evantandersen> hey does anyone know if this will work? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1085670
[16:19] <Joker_-_> sipior: so, got enough tinformations to understand what I wanna do with the boxes?
[16:19] <anonymous1112> well, you did ask me if I had a support question.
[16:19] <berkes> how do I associate filetypes in ubuntu (or more specific gedit)? I recently merged from kubuntu, in KDE there is  a sidewide configscreen for this.
[16:20] <hwilde> !ot > anonymous1112
[16:20] <Joker_-_> sipior: the lamp server will get 512mb, so will the nas, my desktop will have 1gb and the media center will get my actual desktop, a quadcore with 4gb
[16:20] <dings> Does anyone successfully use the python-pythonmagick pkg. in intrepid/hardy? Seems like it only makes Image and Blob available, and I don't see why.
[16:20] <tyler_d1> how do I su to another user without relying on /bin/bash please?
[16:20] <berkes> somehow gnome seems to find my .module files binary, rather then PHP ($ file command reports this correct as PHP)
[16:20] <Blou_Aap> how can i type a command in the terminal and without closing the command type another on the same terminal ?
[16:21] <evantandersen> berkes  System > Prefrences > Preferred Applications
[16:21] <archman> erUSUL: ok, removing linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic right? (Sorry to bother)
[16:21] <Joker_-_> hence the question, how can I find what machine gives the best troughput?
[16:21] <berkes> Blou_Aap: terminate the line with an & e.g. gedit &
[16:21] <hwilde> Blou_Aap, put a semicolon
[16:21] <tyler_d1> Blou_Aap: to place the command as a background process type &
[16:21] <hwilde> !pm
[16:21] <tyler_d1> Blou_Aap: 2 commands in-line are separated by &&
[16:21] <erUSUL> archman: yep if its 2.6.22 *22* ?
[16:21] <Joker_-_> I'm not talking hard-drive speed or anything, simply cpu + mem
[16:21] <Blou_Aap> ta i forgot
[16:22] <hwilde> Joker_-_, try in #hardware
[16:22] <archman> erUSUL: 2.6.22-14.46. I don't understand the question.
[16:22] <sipior> Joker_-_: apologies, i was away.
[16:22] <archman> erUSUL: It's the first kernel I had, back in the time...
[16:23] <erUSUL> archman: intrepid uses 2.6.27 *27* kernels not 22 those are ancient
[16:23] <berkes> evantandersen: thanks, but that is not the one I am looking for. That tool only allows a few base apps to be set.
[16:23] <berkes> I need gnome to recognise that a .module file is php evantandersen
[16:23] <unr3a1> hey all
[16:24] <archman> erUSUL: removal or complete removal? (I know the diffs, but dunno what to think here)
[16:24] <bruenig> hmm
[16:24] <erUSUL> archman: complete removal is fine
[16:24] <bruenig> FloodBot3: you are flooding, ban yourself
[16:24] <archman> ok ;)
[16:25] <sky_> bruenig: lol :D
[16:25] <unr3a1> I have a broadcom 4312 (rev 1) card in my netbook, but I am unable to enable monitoring mode.  I have done the b43-fwcutter install to install the necessary firmware, but it still is not working.  what can i do>
[16:25] <unr3a1> ?
[16:25] <sky_> Seper: no idea ? xD
[16:25] <Joker_-_> sipior: lol, no problems
[16:25] <ludo2612> nobody to help me ?
[16:26] <Joker_-_> sipior: read back or not, msg me if you have any clue, I'll go to #hardware as suggested by hwilde
[16:26] <archman> erUSUL: to be removed: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-generic and linux-ubuntu-modules... ok?
[16:26] <sipior> Joker_-_: try not to focus too much on processor speed. depending on what you want a machine to do, hard disk speed, memory and cache availability can be far more important. you'll get better advise in #hardware, i suspect :-)
[16:26] <erUSUL> archman: ok;
[16:26] <archman> erUSUL: they also appear in the local/obsolete ;)
[16:27] <Joker_-_> sipior: yeah but in this case thats ram & cpu I need / miss...
[16:27] <Joker_-_> sipior: all the hard drives are the same, or almost.
[16:27] <Joker_-_> sipior: everything is "hosted" on the nas
[16:28] <Joker_-_> sipior: and the nas has an external drive bay (sata)
[16:28] <unr3a1> so does anyone know what I can do?
[16:29] <shadeslayer> hey how do i change the sound theme??
[16:29] <shadeslayer> in GNOME
[16:29] <amigamia1> how do you setup php?
[16:30] <shadeslayer> i have sound prefrences open
[16:30] <amigamia1> when i run an install it just tries to download the file
[16:30] <storbeck> amigamia1: #php would be a better channel for that question
[16:30] <amigamia1> ok
[16:30] <ludo2612> my second screen is not recognized by kubuntu. what can i do?
[16:31] <shadeslayer> #kubuntu
[16:31] <shadeslayer> ><
[16:31] <_VIM_> amigamia1: one way to avoid that is getting Ubuntu Server edition, it correctly sets all that stuff up
[16:31] <anoop> i am using ubuntu 8.10 need to onnect net using bsnl huawei  ec325 wirless modem pls help me
[16:31] <_VIM_> and then you can just slap a lightweight window manager on it if needed amigamia1
[16:31] <Pew^_^> can I install ubuntu on my 1GB usb memory flash drive?
[16:31] <Seper> sky_: no idea about what?
[16:31] <hwilde> hi I have two monitors and i'm running two separate x screens.  when my mouse and keyboard focus are only on the right monitor for awhile, both monitors start to dim and go into sleep mode.  only activity in the left xscreen wakes it up.  how can I fix it so it recognized activity in both xscreens?
[16:32] <hwilde> !usb > Pew^_^
[16:32] <sky_> Seper: nothing now
[16:32] <shadeslayer> anoop: ah DHCP enabled??
[16:32] <Seper> Pew^_^: Yes, with great difficulty :)
[16:32] <storbeck> Pew^_^: You can put a livecd on it.
[16:32] <anoop> what it mean?
[16:32] <vu> is anonymous1112 still here
[16:32] <Seper> !usb
[16:32] <Pew^_^> my question was, how much size does ubuntu need after installation?
[16:33] <storbeck> vu: Why?
[16:33] <anoop> pls tell in detail
[16:33] <nooblyalmostid> could someone direct a noob where to go before asking simple questions?
[16:33] <vu> stobeck: i needed to thank him again.
[16:33] <hipzen> Pew^_^: depends on how much you install
[16:33] <anoop> heloooo help me
[16:33] <storbeck> He's here, but I think he's idling.
[16:33] <storbeck> You might want to PM him.
[16:33] <Pew^_^> hipzen: say a standard installation? I have the 600mb iso
[16:33] <b4cchus> nooblyalmostid: google
[16:33] <godowner> Anyone here like an expert in sound? I have a very noisy speaker problem, only on ubuntu, only sometimes
[16:33] <unr3a1> Pew^_^: a 1GB flashdrive would be enough to install Ubuntu onto it.
[16:34] <anoop> heloooo
[16:34] <amy__> hey guys

[16:34] <Seper> anoop: I have a  huawei
[16:34] <ludo2612> my second screen is not recognized by kubuntu. what can i do ?
[16:34] <unr3a1> Pew^_^: don't know how much space you would have left on the drive, but to setup a USB stick as a bootable OS, a 1GB would be fine.
[16:34] <ludo2612> #kubuntu doesn't work!
[16:34] <Seper> anoop: Mine is ec228
[16:34] <nooblyalmostid> Yes.. Ive been to google, and finally figured out how to get root internet access using a zte ac8700 usb modem.. but erm.. when I try following the advice in the same places to get the access for non-root.. something dosn't work.. thanks for the google idea.
[16:34] <hipzen> Pew^_^: not sure you will in a "standard" installation (what is a standard inst anyway?) - but you could fit it onto a 1GB USB stick
[16:35] <_VIM_> !doesntwork | ludo2612

[16:37] <max82fr> hi guys!!
[16:37] <dma> hi all
[16:37] <Ghoul> what was the program called to control multiple monitors?
[16:37] <ludo2612> ubottu: when i try to enter on the #kubuntu channel, i am redirecting to #ubuntu-proxy-users and a bot say me that I would connect me on #ubuntu

[16:38] <godowner> XP works fine
[16:38] <unr3a1> so does anyone know what I can do?
[16:38] <dings> godowner: find out what soundcard you have and what driver/module (play with lspci and lsmod). Check if the logs says anything (/var/log). And try to phrase a more spesific question.
[16:38] <dma> how can i make some traductions?
[16:38] <dma> i can translate english to spanish or catalan and viceversa
[16:38] <_VIM_> ludo2612: sounds like you were banned, try asking in #Ubuntu-ops

[16:38] <torsten_> hello. i have a problem with open certain pdfs in ubuntu. im new to linux, pls help
[16:39] <jpds> !rosetta | dma

[16:39] <max82fr> IPOD Touch set up anyone Please
[16:39] <nooblyalmostid> right now I am on irc because I entered the sudo sirc command if I had tried just sirc the internet isn't available.
[16:40] <torsten_> when i open the pdf it shows it for 1-2 seconds and then crashes
[16:40] <ludo2612> _VIM_: thank you
[16:40] <Laeborg> http://pastebin.com/m26048831 - how can I do that? :S
[16:40] <amigamia1> isnt there a simple installation procedure for php?
[16:40] <torsten_> i tried every pdf viewer there is
[16:40] <garrettt> i am  running 8.10 and for some reason it is not recognizing my built in web cam. I have installed skype and cheese and neither recognize my web cam.
[16:40] <unr3a1> torsten_: do you get any error messages?
[16:40] <amigamia1> i searched in the program manager and i chose the php5 but it still is tryingto download the install file
[16:40] <berkes> torsten_: what does the commandline command "file"  tell you about the PDF you are viewing?
[16:41] <torsten_> unr3al yes with okular but not with other programs
[16:41] <unr3a1> torsten_: what error do you get?
[16:41] <torsten_> "The application Okular (okular) crashed and caused the signal 8 (SIGFPE)."
[16:41] <berkes> torsten_: try "file ~/path/to/file.pdf"
[16:41] <torsten_> i googled it
[16:41] <amy__> max82fr: why don't you go to windows chatline, they will be more than welcome to help you on there
[16:41] <theholyduck> sooo.. i just installed ubuntu for the first time to do some testing. and it seems to lock up under high i-o, (like merging a video and audio stream into a video file or large copies) caps and scroll lock both start blinking and i cant do anything but hit reset. anyone got a clue WHY this would happen?
[16:42] <berkes> theholyduck: several
 or ubuntu?!?
[16:42] <_VIM_> max82fr:  try http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/itunes
[16:42] <theholyduck> berkes, well i've never seen it happen on any other distro :P
[16:42] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: can you check if your login is a member of the "dip" group? you can check with the command "groups"
[16:42] <brant> I have a system that had a hard drive issue after a power failure in our warehouse. I booted a rescue disc and ran fsck  it found lots of errors and fixed them but it got short reads and deleted a ton of files
[16:42] <theholyduck> it doesnt happen on my debian install. doesnt happen on my arch install. doesnt happen on my lunar install :P
[16:42] <max82fr> does anyone have an ipod touch here??!!
[16:42] <brant> including apt-get and such
[16:42] <theholyduck> all of wich run roughly the same kernel :P
[16:43] <nooblyalmostid> yes my login has dips listed in groups
[16:43] <brant> so now I need to fix the system but I can't via apt
[16:43] <brant> also it deleted python
[16:43] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: dip, not dips
[16:43] <berkes> theholyduck: still not very specific. Could be anything. Maybe try starting with disabling desktop effects?
[16:43] <amy__> max82fr: ubuntu won't be able to help you
[16:43] <brant> my fileservers files are all still intact
[16:43] <PoloNorte> ubuntu-br
[16:43] <theholyduck> berkes, allready disabled
[16:43] <nooblyalmostid> correct dip sorry I tried to type too fast.
[16:43] <berkes> kay. theholyduck, anything in the logs?
 Well im not running a windows, am I?!
[16:44] <PoloNorte> !br
[16:44] <_VIM_> !attitude | max82fr
[16:44] <theholyduck> berkes, what logs would i check? i get no messages about crashes after starting up again
[16:44] <PoloNorte> !ubuntu-br
[16:44] <brant> so is there any way to do a repair install from the original cd so that I can fix the system without reinstalling it and losing my config files and such? I could back them up and all but this is preferable.
[16:44] <pbeanbag> stupid question.  i just upgraded from hardy to intrepid.  my wireless strength/networking icon is gone from the systemtray area in the upper right.  how do i get it back?
[16:44] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: and if you head to "System -> Administration -> Users and Groups", do you have a check next to "Connect to internet via modem"?
[16:44] <PoloNorte> ajuda em portugues
[16:44] <_VIM_> PoloNorte:  type /join #ubuntu-br
 i know but why talking about windows
[16:44] <brant> pbeanbag, try alt F2 and typing nm-applet
[16:44] <amy__> max82fr: type this command:      /join #windows
[16:44] <torsten_> cant open it :(
[16:45] <_VIM_> Why are you guys redirecting him to #windows for an ipod question?
[16:45] <PoloNorte> thank you vim
[16:45] <berkes> theholyduck: nothing in /var/logs that gives a hint? e.g. something about a certain filesystem not being able to be mounted? anything?
[16:45] <_VIM_> PoloNorte:  :)
[16:45] <nooblyalmostid> sipior: yes
[16:45] <pbeanbag> brant: thats it thanks.  is this going to launch every time i restart now?
[16:45] <brant> if that fixes it pbeanbag then go system --> preferences --> session
[16:45] <unr3a1> torsten_: is there an error?
[16:45] <max82fr> is it only for windows users??
[16:45] <torsten_> no such file or directory
[16:45] <brant> and make sure to add it to startup items
[16:45] <theholyduck> berkes, i'll take a look around
[16:45] <torsten_> i used file ~/home/torsten/name.pdf
[16:45] <unr3a1> torsten_: sounds like a corrupt file
[16:46] <mikeman1> Hey guys have a Q: I am looking to automate a few browsers tasks, so I wanted to load up firefox and have it automatically fill out the needed data and submit form, I dont wanna post via php/perl/etc I'd like to have the actual browser do it. Anyone have an idea what language I could do that in?
[16:46] <torsten_> hm works on my windows though...
[16:46] <torsten_> maybe i should recopy it
[16:46] <torsten_> it opens for a second though
[16:46] <torsten_> and i can see the writing
[16:46] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: anything interesting show up in the log files /var/log/daemon.log and /var/log/messages when you attempt to connect?
[16:46] <pbeanbag> brant: its in there already, this is my first reboot since upgrading, for whatever reason it didnt load.  either way, fixed now.  thanks for the quick reply :)
[16:46] <brant> np :)
[16:46] <berkes> torsten_: ~/home/torsten is wrong.
[16:46] <theholyduck> berkes, but all my filesystems are working perfectly :P
[16:47] <theholyduck> the crashes just seems to happen on high io :P
[16:47] <berkes> should be /home/torsten/name.pdf
[16:47] <theholyduck> i am using lvm and xfs though. wich arent exactly standard ubuntu.
[16:47] <berkes> or ~/name.pdf, ~ is an alias for your hoedir torsten
[16:47] <nooblyalmostid> sipior: vaio-laptop pppd[7345]: must be root to run /usr/sbin/pppd, since it is not setuid-root
[16:47] <torsten_> still does say no such file or directory
[16:48] <berkes> theholyduck: continue the guessing game: memory? what does "free" tell you?
[16:48] <Padraig> guys, I want to use ubuntu, but what is the advandage over it than, say, fedora?
[16:48] <unr3a1> didnt see the ~ before, berkes.  nice catch
[16:48] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: what are the permissions of /usr/sbin/pppd?
[16:48] <brant> Padraig, it depends on your needs.  :) I'm sure each has its advantage and disadvantages
[16:48] <berkes> torsten_: try "ls" first. to see if the file is there?
[16:48] <theholyduck> berkes, well over 3gb free memory
[16:48] <Padraig> Brant: Just general desktop use/programming.
[16:49] <Padraig> also, is there C# support?
[16:49] <brant> Padraig, the difference is probably somewhat nominal. There is good C# support
[16:49] <berkes> theholyduck: I had some problems with swap not mounting correct in the past on ubuntu, hence the guess. Now I am out of ammo.
[16:49] <torsten_> it shows me the green path file
[16:49] <b4cchus> only via mono
[16:49] <brant> I prefer ubuntu because I prefer debs over rpms
[16:49] <Titan8990> Padraig, mono is available in all linux distros
[16:49] <Padraig> mono?
[16:49] <b4cchus> open source .net runtime
[16:49] <Titan8990> !info mono
[16:49] <b4cchus> but it's not 100%
[16:49] <brant> I feel that the package manager in ubuntu/debian is superior to the RPM systems but its an opinion.
[16:50] <theholyduck> brant, i prefer debian over ubuntu because ubuntu is packaged even worse than debian :P
[16:50] <theholyduck> but whatever :P
[16:50] <Padraig> thanks.
[16:50] <Padraig> :)
[16:50] <nooblyalmostid> ;sipior: for dip it is read only
[16:50] <theholyduck> berkes, nothing useful in messages though
[16:50] <theholyduck> as in var/log/messages
[16:50] <brant> ubottu, try installing monodevelop :) that should get you mono and all development packages
[16:50] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: you can set the setuid bit with "sudo chmod u+s /usr/sbin/pppd". understand however that that has some (probably minor) consequences for the security of your system.
[16:50] <torsten_> the file is not corrupt
[16:50] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: no execute for dip?
[16:50] <torsten_> it works on windows
[16:51] <brant> theholyduck, maybe, :) Ubuntu releases a bit more often though, and is more up to date unless I use the unstable repositories in debian
[16:51] <torsten_> berkes, now it shows me pdf file ver 1.4
[16:51] <theholyduck> brant, i always use unstable
[16:51] <berkes> okay. lets try again: how do I get gedit to recognise my .module files as PHP? Currently it puts the syntax highlight wrong on em, and the symbolviewer stays empty.
[16:51] <theholyduck> brant, the nice thing about unstable is that you have a free ticket to ignore packaging standards and everything
[16:52] <brant> lol
[16:52] <JEEBcz> lol
[16:52] <theholyduck> because by being good enough to use it. you also know how to break and fix anything at will
[16:52] <theholyduck> thus i can build static ffmpeg packages. and what not
[16:52] <nooblyalmostid> :sipior: I do not know how to tell if it has execute for dip?
[16:52] <Padraig> What about developing applications, like, is there an SDK, like Visual Studio
[16:52] <Padraig> ?
[16:52] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: by way of comparison, these are the default permissions: -rwsr-xr-- 1 root dip 313600 2007-10-04 22:48 /usr/sbin/pppd
[16:52] <berkes> torsten_: good. At least it /is/ pdf. However, I am not particular fan of okular on KDE4. IT crashed on me waaaayy too often. Did you try another pdf-viewer?
[16:52] <brant> berkes, view ---> highlight mode ---> scripts ---> php
[16:52] <brant> Padraig, there is monodevelop
[16:53] <brant> which has a graphical editor
[16:53] <torsten_> im now installing every pdf viewer there is in my menu
[16:53] <brant> very nice
[16:53] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: you're looking for an "x" in position 7 of the permission list
[16:53] <torsten_> maybe it works
[16:53] <berkes> brant: sure. But its annopying to do that 80 times per day :)
[16:53] <Titan8990> Padraig, monodevelop, EMACs, VIM, Geany, Eclipse    --- take your pick
[16:53] <berkes> brant: I'd like gedit to remember the filetypes somehow.
[16:53] <brant> for c# though monodevelop is the best
[16:53] <brant> berkes, that I don't know about :)
[16:53] <nooblyalmostid> ;sipior: how do you see that, I was checking the permissions by opening the properties of the file.
[16:54] <b4cchus> Padraig: are you using gnome or kde?
[16:54] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: "ls -l /usr/sbin/pppd"
[16:54] <berkes> brant: thanks anyway.
[16:54] <b4cchus> or something else?
[16:54] <nooblyalmostid> :sipior: it is now -rwsrwxr-x 1 almostid dip 277160 2008-11-20 22:58 /usr/sbin/pppd
[16:54] <brant> b4cchus, lxde is pretty nice :)
[16:55] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: why is it not owned by root?
[16:55] <nooblyalmostid> :sipior: after modification using chmod u+s ... as you described.
[16:55] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: try a "sudo chown root /usr/sbin/pppd"
[16:55] <nooblyalmostid> :sipior: because I have been erm.. playing? with it as described by my google searches :(
[16:55] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: ah :-)
[16:56] <torsten_> thanks berkes, it works with xpdf. thank you for your time
[16:56] <nooblyalmostid> :sipior: -rwxrwxr-x 1 root dip 277160 2008-11-20 22:58 /usr/sbin/pppd
[16:56] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: be sure to re-add the setuid bit, since the chown will automatically clear it.
[16:57] <jedi06> when there is an exception is it common to send it to a server so you can try to fix it?
[16:57] <nooblyalmostid> :sipior: ok
[16:57] <berkes> torsten_: no prob. If you are not on kde, try the gnome default one too. its called "Document Viewer"
[16:57] <berkes> torsten_: http://www.gnome.org/projects/evince
[16:57] <nooblyalmostid> :sipior: I will test that change, thank you very much for your help.
[16:58] <sipior> nooblyalmostid: no trouble
[16:58] <[DarkSun]> does anyone know offhand if the sunblade 2000 is supported with the sparc release? i did a google search got a bunch of forum threads that didnt answer my question....
[16:59] <del> Hey, I want to use my existing gnupg-keys (private and public) within nautilus, thus import them into seahorse
[16:59] <brant> Is there any way to do a repair installation of ubuntu using the original discs that doesn't erase the /etc and /boot directories? Or a way to use the files on the cd to run apt on the local system?
[16:59] <Titan8990> !offtopic | [DarkSun]
[16:59] <del> But while importing an ascii armored private key, seahorse says "imported key but then couldn't find it in keyring"
[17:00] <[DarkSun]> i belive thats on-topic as it is for support, but ill be a goodboy and head over that way...
[17:00] <brant> thats a bot
[17:00] <brant> I think said bot misinterpreted you
[17:00] <del> Tried ubuntu-tool -i with the same effect
[17:00] <Titan8990> [DarkSun], on topic? ubuntu doesn't have a sparc release, debian does
[17:00] <vadi2_> Hi, what does kacpid do? It is using more CPU than Xorg
[17:00] <Absolute0> I modified the settings of one of my windows permissions and now it won't start at all and there is no way to change it back.
[17:00] <del> Does anyone handled to import an existing private gnupg-key into seahorse in 8.10?
[17:00] <Absolute0> Is there any general partition mount manager in ubuntu?
[17:00] <brant> Absolute0, try gparted
[17:00] <MindSpark> how do I make apt rerun the postinstallation scripts ?
[17:01] <Absolute0> brant not partitioner
[17:01] <[DarkSun]> titan, i belive your wrong as i have found talk about ubuntu being installed on sparc boxes witha sparc distro... (havent looked for said distro yet)
[17:01] <Absolute0> i need to mount a drive
[17:01] <fosco_> MindSpark, sudo dpkg-reconfigure package
[17:01] <brant> nautilus should do it...
[17:01] <Absolute0> i changed the mount point in settings
[17:01] <Absolute0> and now it fails
[17:01] <brant> what "settings" ?
[17:01] <Ghoul> is there a GUI utility that deals with multiple monitors in ubuntu?
[17:01] <MindSpark> fosco_, thanks !
[17:02] <brant> Ghoul, used to be displayconfig-gtk
[17:02] <Absolute0> brant: right click->drive->settings->mount point
[17:02] <brant> I don't know if its still around
[17:02] <brant> ahh ok let me look at what that does Absolute0
[17:02] <berkes> Ghoul: yup. here the "System > Settings > display"  has dual head support.
[17:02] <berkes> its how I configured my dualhead, Ghoul.
[17:03] <noobalmostid> :sipior: you still here?
[17:03] <theholyduck> berkes, i found out why ubuntu kept crashing :P
[17:03] <sipior> noobalmostid: i am.
[17:03] <brant> Absolute0, I'd first try going to gconf-editor and going apps---> nautilus
[17:04] <brant> and look around to see if anything there has settings relating to your mount point
[17:04] <paulo39> hi, i have the 2,4-version of OpenOffice, i want to install the 3.0.1-version one. i went to OpenOffice's site and download the .deb package. when i install that version, the current version will automatically be uninstalled? and i'm doing everything right installing this way? because i search on Synaptic and i didn't find any OpenOffice package there
[17:04] <noobalmostid> :sipior: ok now I can open sirc through a terminal window without having to sudo it.. but things like firefos and pidgin still do not see the internet.
[17:04] <brant> Absolute0, and if it does, delete it
[17:04] <theholyduck> berkes, ffmpeg doesnt write to disc untill ram filesystem cache is full :P or atleast a delay simlar to that. where as me with my 4gb of ram forgot to enable my new lvm swap partition.
[17:05] <brant> paulo39, I would say to use the ppa repository
[17:05] <brant> instead of the .debs from openoffice.org
[17:05] <sipior> noobalmostid: check to see if the interface is up with "/sbin/ifconfig"
[17:05] <theholyduck> thus ffmpeg muxes untill it fills up my ram completely. then crashes the system :P
[17:05] <Grim76__> paulo39: This is the link that I used for what you are trying to do. http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-OpenOffice-org-3-0-in-Ubuntu-8-10-96449.shtml
[17:05] <brant> paullou, https://launchpad.net/~openoffice-pkgs/+archive/ppa is a link to the ppa
[17:05] <sipior> noobalmostid: it will probably be called something like "ppp0"
[17:05] <brant> if you're on hardy or intrepid
[17:05] <paulo39> ppa repository? i'm afraid i don't have it added to my repositories, i will investigate
[17:06] <noobalmostid> :sipior: ok looking now.
[17:06] <UncleD-> I'm on ubuntu and I want to install the latest php-gd, but when I install it, my system doesn't appear to use it, it uses my old non "gd" php. How can I fix that?
[17:06] <Killeroid> hi guys, i was messing with wget options and used the -b option to make wget download in background. i want to know how to invoke wget to the foreground so that I can see how much of the download is done
[17:06] <brant> paulo39, you don't have it added yet of course. Thats what the links for. If you add that you'll get new versions of openoffice through the update manager
[17:06] <brant> killbillkill, just use fg
[17:06] <brant>  so  fg PID   where PID is the process ID
[17:07] <brant> when you backgrounded it it should have gave the pid or job number
[17:07] <brant> usually just    fg 1
[17:07] <noobalmostid> :sipior: have  inet addr:92.49.209.224  P-t-P:77.109.0.148  Mask:255.255.255.255
[17:07] <paulo39> brant, ok, i'm going to follow that tuturial, thanks
[17:08] <sipior> noobalmostid: check to see if you have a default route set with "route -n"
[17:08] <Titan8990> Killeroid, when you have a need to do that, you should specify a log dir
[17:08] <Titan8990> Killeroid, and then tail the log to see the progress
[17:08] <sipior> noobalmostid: also, verify that you can ping the other end of that link
[17:09] <Killeroid> brant: fg doesnt work.
[17:09] <noobalmostid> :sipior: the only things w/ a non-0 ip are genmask and destination
[17:09] <Killeroid> Titan8990: the download is already in progress and i dont want to kill it and restart it
[17:09] <sipior> noobalmostid: could you pastebin the result of route -n?
[17:09] <Titan8990> Killeroid, out of luck, but you know of next time
[17:10] <sipior> noobalmostid: and ifconfig too, while you're at it.

[17:10] <sipior> hmm
[17:11] <linduxed> my ubuntu laptop has an incredibly slow shutdown. the "ubuntu bar" moves at a normal speed, but after the screen goes black it dwells for something like half a minute or more... How do i diagnose what the problem could be?
[17:11] <noyalmostid> :sipior: I guess not .. I got booted.
[17:11] <sipior> !paste > noyalmostid
[17:12] <noyalmostid> :sipior: lol ok paste coming lol
[17:13] <jcapinc> is this a good place for shell scripting questions?
[17:13] <Titan8990> jcapinc, try your luck
[17:13] <sipior> jcapinc: not really, more for ubuntu support proper. you can find a channel for your shell though
[17:14] <sipior> jcapinc: then again, it is slow at the moment :-)
[17:14] <Marfi> Why doesn't the developers of KDE and Gnome just merge?
[17:14] <jcapinc> how would I open a terminal and have that terminal run a command in a shell script?  just the reguler standard gterminal for ubuntu
[17:14] <markl_> it looks like "linux-igd" is marked as obsolete in ubuntu - what is the replacement?
[17:14] <erUSUL> Marfi: becouse they do not want to
[17:14] <Marfi> jcapinc: applications > accessories > terminal
[17:14] <jcapinc> Marfi, because thay have very different views on how a desktop should look and behave, and that is a good thing
[17:14] <noyalmostid> :sipior: unable to access http://paste.ubuntu.com.. aka I don't know how to call an browser as "root" yet..
[17:14] <Titan8990> jcapinc, sh /path/to/my/script
[17:15] <Titan8990> jcapinc, maybe I don't understand?
[17:15] <Marfi> jcapinc: They should. I love the stability of gnome, and the prettiness of KDE. erUSUL I think they shoud
[17:15] <jcapinc> Titan8990, I want a shell script to open a terminal window, and then in that window run a custom command
[17:15] <sipior> noyalmostid: you can just use the machine you're using irc from to enter the text.
[17:15] <fosco_> Marfi, 2 projects are always better than one
[17:15] <Titan8990> jcapinc, why not just open the terminal and run the script/command?
[17:16] <Marfi> fosco_:  I can see what you mean
[17:16] <jcapinc> because I am writting something for a neophyte and I want to make it easy
[17:16] <noyalmostid> :sipior: I opened irc via a terminal window.
[17:16] <shavin> I wish to get java on my pendrive ubuntu. i dont want to install full jdk. cant i just get a jre so that java apps can run?
[17:16] <noyalmostid> :sipior: sirc to be more correct.
[17:16] <sipior> jcapinc: if i understand you correctly, you want the "-e" option for gnome-terminal
[17:17] <markl_> anyone here familiar with upnp or igd
[17:17] <churl> the newest update may have messed up my sound.  I've never had a sound issue before right now.  I dont know where to start.
[17:17] <sipior> noyalmostid: so you have network access from the machine already? try installing the "pastebinit" package.
[17:17] <noyalmostid> :sipior: ok
[17:17] <sipior> noyalmostid: that will allow you to send the output without a web browser.
[17:18] <sipior> noyalmostid: but the fact that you apparently have network access means the data are probably not relevant :-)
[17:19] <sipior> noyalmostid: what happens when you start up a web browser? also, can you ping an external host?
[17:20] <marllus> #ubuntubr
[17:21] <adam> #xubuntu
[17:21] <noyalmostid> :sipior: http://pastebin.com/f1e494516
[17:21] <UncleD-> I did "sudo apt-get install php5-gd", restarted apache, and its still not enabled.
[17:21] <UncleD-> I think my server is using a non "gd" version of php5. how can i check?
[17:22] <noyalmostid> :sipior: I will try an external host.
[17:23] <noyalmostid> :sipior: when I use system -> network tools -> ping -> google.com I do get results.
[17:23] <sipior> noyalmostid: what happens when you launch a web browser?
[17:23] <Pretto> !package aptoncd
[17:24] <noyalmostid> :sipior: when I open firefox ant try to navigate to an non-local address it says that "currently in offline mode and cannot browse the web"
[17:24] <sipior> noyalmostid: oh :-) check the file menu, and turn that option off
[17:24]  * sipior wonders about the point of an "offline mode" for a web browser
[17:25] <noyalmostid> :sipior: I am very red-faced at the moment.
[17:25] <strick9> is anyone having a problem with firefox running slow in ubuntu?
[17:25] <sipior> noyalmostid: eh, it happens :-) i happen to think the existence of "Work Offline" should be cause for a bug report, but what can you do...
[17:26] <noyalmostid> :sipior: hmm but pidgin still says "waiting for network connection" that is what I had been using to judge wether or not I was connected to the net..
[17:26] <noyalmostid> ;sipior: guess I will read thru the pidgin man for a bit, thanks for all of your help.
[17:26] <sipior> noyalmostid: try restarting it. it may have cached dns resolver information
[17:26] <mr_daniel> strick9: you mean when you try to open a new firefox windows? Or when a site uses flash?
[17:26] <andresmh> i uninstalled by mistake the gnome network applet and now I cannot connect to my network. Since I cannot connect I cannot reinstall it via synaptic. I am now on my Vista partition . How can I reinstall the gnome network applet?
[17:26] <strick9> mr_daniel, sites that are heavy with javascript cause the problem, twiddla.com for instance
[17:27] <Droopsta915> I installed xp on my master harddrive and it wiped my bootloader. Two days later and a SuperGrubDisk, I'm back! If anyone needs help reloading the bootloader let me know, it's easier than it sounds:)
[17:28] <Othor> how do you save channels in Xchat-GNOME?
[17:29] <noyalmostid> heh I am getting better I figured out how to sign off of sirc aswell.
[17:29] <strick9> its a good exaple because its very javascript heavy but the site runs great in xp, vista, and Suse linux, barely runs in ubuntu
[17:30] <darthanubis> ALL of my menu bars for all apps except Firefox no long appear to show?!?
[17:30] <lyhana8> hi, does anyone can advice me some alternative to Skype ?
[17:30] <LjjjL> darthanubis: uh, have you attempted to install sometthing called gnome-globalmenu?
[17:31] <mr_daniel> strick9: there is a #firefox channel on FreeNode. Maybe they can help you with your JavaScript issue
[17:31] <strick9> this is specific to ubuntu
[17:31] <darthanubis> LjjjL, YES!
[17:32] <LjjjL> darthanubis: and that's just a detail isn't it... *sigh* ok, have you actually enabled the menubar applet in your panel?
[17:32] <darthanubis> yes
[17:32] <andresmh> i uninstalled by mistake the gnome network applet and now I cannot connect to my network. Since I cannot connect I cannot reinstall it via synaptic. I am now on my Vista partition . How can I reinstall the gnome network applet?
[17:32] <shadeslayer> anyone familiar with powertop??
[17:32] <darthanubis> so basically the global menu is like MAc and all menus run from that?
[17:32] <darthanubis> my bad
[17:32] <LjjjL> darthanubis: yes, what did you think it was?
[17:33] <shadeslayer> andresmh: how come you lost your network applet??
[17:33] <darthanubis> dude I forgot I installed it
[17:33] <darthanubis> sheesh
[17:33] <darthanubis> thx for the reminder
[17:34] <LjjjL> !ekiga | lyhana8
[17:34] <andresmh> shadeslayer: i installed something that uninstalled it i think.
[17:34] <LjjjL> lyhana8: err, ekiga anyway
[17:34] <shadeslayer> andresmh: restart gnome
[17:34] <LjjjL> lyhana8: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ekiga
[17:34] <shadeslayer> i.e remove your gnome folder
[17:34] <shadeslayer> it will reset everything
[17:35] <shadeslayer> andresmh: itll give you everything as default
[17:35] <lyhana8> yep seem to be the best one LjjjL
[17:35] <andresmh> shadeslayer: i don't think that would do it, the gnome network applet was uninstalled not removed from the bar
[17:36] <LjjjL> lyhana8: it's a SIP client, it's interoperable with any other SIP software or device, although it's not interoperable with Skype (which uses a prroprietary protocol)
[17:36] <shadeslayer> andresmh: no harm in trying right?? rm -rf ~/.gnome* && rm -rf .gconf*
[17:36] <shadeslayer> that *probably* will give you the applet back
[17:37] <lyhana8> LjjjL: yep but i've few contacts (most of them on *ubuntu) so it's okay
[17:37] <UncleD-> apt-get source php5 is giving me this error "E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list"
[17:37] <UncleD-> I have intrepid, any suggestions?
[17:37] <shadeslayer> :O
[17:37] <shadeslayer> you have no sources :O
[17:37] <LjjjL> shadeslayer: isn't that a bit extreme? if it's a panel problem, then !resetpanel should fix it without removing all of gnome's configuration
[17:37] <shadeslayer> ><
[17:37] <UncleD-> shadeslayer: i have a sources.list with stuff in it
[17:38] <shadeslayer> LjjjL: uh nope
[17:38] <shadeslayer> UncleD-: i was yanking your wand
[17:38] <shadeslayer> ><
[17:38] <LjjjL> shadeslayer: if it's just that gnome's network manager isn't in the session anymore, it can be readded from preferences/session, and if it's been uninstalled, well one just reinstalls it
[17:38] <shadeslayer> LjjjL: he said he lost his net cnnection too
[17:38] <shadeslayer> *connection
[17:38] <churl> Sound is no longer working after update.  Any help on where to start?
[17:38] <shadeslayer> which i cant understand how
[17:39] <shubbar> i m trying to start GIMP in a different language, but getting the error "(gimp:6282): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library."
[17:39] <shadeslayer> churl: HDA intel sound card??
[17:39] <LjjjL> shadeslayer: me neither, but i can't see how removing gnome's config would fix it. he might have removed network-manager entirely, in that case i'd configure the network manually from /etc/network/interfaces and then reinstall it
[17:39] <benxx> how do you update seamonkey
[17:40] <shadeslayer> LjjjL: well hopefully that will bring all applets back
[17:40] <shadeslayer> if not hell come back,duh
[17:40] <LjjjL> shadeslayer: yeah but it will also destroy all his gnome settings, won't it?
[17:40] <shadeslayer> LjjjL: hmm,well yes,but you can configure gnome in 15 min,unlike KDE
[17:41] <shadeslayer> i forgot my question ><
[17:41] <UncleD-> I have intrepid, any suggestions?
[17:41] <UncleD-> apt-get source php5 is giving me this error "E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list"
[17:42] <churl> shadeslayer: yes
[17:42] <LjjjL> UncleD-: your /etc/apt/sources.list should have some "deb-src" lines in it (NOT commented out). also, why do you want to get the source of php?
[17:42] <shadeslayer> !intelhda | churl
[17:43] <churl> neat
[17:43] <shadeslayer> :)
[17:43] <churl> :)
[17:44] <CosmiChaos> can you say "pwng"? :=)
[17:44] <shadeslayer> ?

[17:44] <profanephobia> where can i get mt-daapd support
[17:45] <shadeslayer> anyone using powertop???
[17:46] <CosmiChaos> shadeslayer: i mean can you speak it
[17:46] <CosmiChaos> :p
[17:46] <boot_loop> which is better for irc chat, weechat-curses or irssi?
[17:46] <shadeslayer> nope
[17:46] <LjjjL> !better
[17:47] <shadeslayer> i agree
[17:47] <shadeslayer> boot_loop: like CLI??
[17:47] <CosmiChaos> xchat pwned
[17:47] <shadeslayer> pawned??
[17:47] <shadeslayer> >_>
[17:47] <boot_loop> I don't know the differences in features between weechat and irssi
[17:47] <Doonz> boot_loop: irssi
[17:47] <UncleD-> E: Could not open file /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_intrepid_universe_source_Sources
[17:48] <UncleD-> how do i fix that?
[17:48] <shadeslayer> irssi--> CLI but more features
[17:48] <CosmiChaos> pwage, to pwn, pwned pwned" :D
[17:48] <CosmiChaos> pwnage
[17:48] <shadeslayer> weechat-->no idea
[17:48] <shadeslayer> lol
[17:48] <boot_loop> pardon my ignorance, but what is CLI?
[17:48] <shadeslayer> pawnage??
[17:48] <CosmiChaos> no pwnage
[17:48] <shadeslayer> boot_loop: like DOS
[17:48] <shadeslayer> command line interface
[17:48] <boot_loop> oh, gotcha... yeah both are command based
[17:49] <shadeslayer> ><
[17:49] <boot_loop> I am using weechat right now, must open in terminal
[17:49] <shadeslayer> then use either
[17:49] <boot_loop> ok cool
[17:49] <shadeslayer> irssi is more famous
[17:49] <boot_loop> ok cool
[17:50] <robert3353> How do I get the SPDIF optical port working on my sound card?  I have a C-media CMI8788 chipset
[17:50] <shadeslayer> SPDIF optical port
[17:50] <shadeslayer> never heard of one of those
[17:50] <shadeslayer> !SPDIF
[17:51] <robert3353> it is the digital vs analog input and output
[17:51] <LjL> !fishing
[17:51] <pipegeek> Hey, is there any way (other than writing a script and adding it to System/Preferences/Sessions) to get network filesystems to mount on login?
[17:52] <UncleD-> How do I fix this? E: Could not open file /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_intrepid_universe_source_Sources
[17:52] <shadeslayer> ok ok
[17:52] <shadeslayer> UncleD-: not to you :)
[17:53] <Hydrant2> anyone know how to get a source code package for ubuntu, and have it extracted with patches applied?
[17:53] <shadeslayer> can some one tell me something which reduces power consumption
[17:53] <kesi> Hi all, I can't play DVDs on my ubuntu desktop though I can play the same one on my Ubuntu laptop.
[17:53] <LjL> Hydrant2: "apt-get source packagename" will get it... it won't apply the patches AFAIK, that'll only happen when you tell it to build - there might be a separate command to perform that step but it escapes me
[17:54] <Hydrant2> yah, I thought there was some command to get it to actually apply patches / build
[17:54] <plic> has anyone ever tried compiling mesaGLUT package?
[17:54] <plic> i seem to have problem comiling it
[17:54] <LjL> Hydrant2: to apply patches *AND* build, yes there is, it's "apt-get --build source packagename"
[17:54] <Hydrant2> I'm trying to debug something in libgcc2.so, and I need to get source code that matches up with the symbols
[17:54] <plic> i tihnk i am missing dependencies
[17:54] <LjL> Hydrant2: to apply patches and *NOT* build, i don't know
[17:55] <plic> how can i know about dependencies to a particular package
[17:56] <vandal> i cant view one of my hard drives in Vista but in Ubuntu it is fine. Vista just sees it as a raw drive. Anyone have any ideas?
[17:56] <LjL> plic: i'm assuming you don't mean a .deb package?
[17:56] <mobodo> how does it work if I want to have a "shared" folder where every file created there is rw by the "shared" group when it is created?
[17:56] <whiskers-> vandal: ask microsoft?
[17:56] <craigbass1976> I can ssh -l different-user to another box, but can't seem to find the means to scp as another user.  Is it possible?  I just got a web host yesterday with shell access, and having a different username is going to be a pain, unless I can copy files up from my dev box (user on the box is craig) to the live box (where the user is something else)
[17:57] <shadeslayer> vandal: is ubuntu installed on it??
[17:57] <stdin> craigbass1976: scp use@hosrt
[17:57] <whiskers-> craigbass1976: user@host
[17:57] <shadeslayer> vandal: if so its probably ext3 formated
[17:57] <stdin> -r
[17:58] <whiskers-> craigbass1976: you have a dev box?
[17:58] <vandal> the drive is ntfs - it used to be visible in both Vista and Ubuntu. Now only Ubuntu. I copied 2 files to the drive last night in linux and that seems to of changed something
[17:58] <shadeslayer> vandal: wubi install ??
[17:58] <UncleD-> How do I fix this? E: Could not open file /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_intrepid_universe_source_Sources <-- i'm trying to get php5 source with apt-get

[17:59] <UncleD-> stdin: thanks :) it worked
[18:00] <UncleD-> stdin: i'm trying to do things the ubuntu/debian way
[18:00] <UncleD-> stdin: with packages and the whole 9 yards
[18:00] <b1shop> i have two 3ware raid cards.  one with 12 1TB disk, the other with 8 1TB disks.  how should i format them to get the largest possible single volume?
[18:00] <nescio_> nescio
[18:00] <stdin> UncleD-: after you add a software repository, you need to update the package cache, that's what the command does
[18:00] <b1shop> keep in mind that I already made them RAID5 with a hot spare for each unit
[18:00] <UncleD-> stdin: makes perfect sense
[18:01] <UncleD-> stdin: yesterday i went from fiesty 6.04 to intrepid 8.10 :)
[18:01] <UncleD-> stdin: i've been a bit out of date
[18:01] <LjL> i have a TV card with a remote control. the remove seems to be recognized, because an infrared-related module is loaded, and it shows up as /dev/input/event5 apparently. but if i "cat" that, or try to use lirc, nothing ever happens. ideas?
[18:02] <kesi> hi all, what do I need to install in order to play my DVD's on my ubuntu machine?  I did something awhile back to get them to play on my laptop and don't remember what
[18:02] <LjL> !dvd
[18:04] <craigbass1976> stdin, thanks
[18:05] <vandal> i use vlc to play dvds - not sure if it comes with all the necessary codecs etc

[18:06] <kopolee11> hello everyone. I am thinking about downgrading from 64-bit 8.10 ubuntu to 32-bit 8.10 ubuntu. The reason is to run apps like google gears and tweetdeck without the hassle. Does anyone know if there will be many hassles. (I have a seprate home partition)

[18:08] <mobodo> boot_loop: set the EDITOR variable in your bashrc
[18:08] <plic> @LjL no not a .deb package
[18:08] <kopolee11> ok, thanks defrysk. and just to make clear, i'm not downgrading to an older form of ubuntu, just the 32 bit version, because it runs more apps
[18:08] <mobodo> boot_loop: EDITOR=scite or whatever
[18:08] <LjL> mobodo: give the directory group permissions for everything, set the suid group bit on it
[18:08] <boot_loop> mobodo: thank you
[18:08] <LjL> plic: then all you can do is check the documentation for dependencies
[18:08] <defrysk> kopolee11, as long as its a fresh install it should be no serious issue

[18:22] <shadeslayer> ok guys gtg
[18:22] <npshmear> Thanks a lot for hte help 0/ cya all
[18:22] <rainium_mint> hey can anyone here answer a question about disk partitioning?
[18:22] <npshmear> the*
[18:23] <shadeslayer> bye all
[18:23] <Othor> I have a AMD Athlon X2 Dual Core 6400+ and when my system is under a lot high CPU load it only uses ~50% (100% of one core) at any given time. This is even with multipliable programs (threads). is there anyway i can test to see if it will use 100% of both CPUs at the same time? Ubuntu 8.10 64bit
[18:23] <shadeslayer> rainium_mint: use gparted
[18:23] <shadeslayer> ><
[18:23] <rainium_mint> its more complicated... i have a problem
[18:23] <oCean_> npshmear: JohnGrisham apt-cache search does not search through internet. It searches the metadata in local cache. Use apt-get update to resync those local package index files
[18:23] <geeksquad1> i am gonna reboot
[18:24] <brant> Is there any way to do a repair installation of ubuntu using the original discs that doesn't erase the /etc and /boot directories? Or a way to use the files on the cd to run apt on the local system?
[18:24] <mib_rug7yxm5> I just bought an Hp laptop modle tx2510us and im using virtualiztion to run a vmware image but my wireless card isnt being detected by aircrack-ng script i looked online I have a Broadcom 4322 I beleive I downloaded the source to compile the driver i get to the end but for some reason I cant get it working gives me error saying insmod: error inserting wl.ko -1: unknown symbol in module anyone?
[18:24] <mib_rug7yxm5> nobody wants to help me?
[18:24] <BOKALDO> nop
[18:25] <brant> well
[18:25] <rainium_mint> i tried partitioning my disk to install fedora along with ubuntu but the installation failed and now when i try to boot up it leaves me on a screen in which i am suppose to use commands.. the prompt is 'initramfs'
[18:25] <brant> no one knows how ;)
[18:25] <geeksquad1> mib_rug7yxm5: we do not know how to fix your question
[18:25] <adityab> I am getting error while running test suites on tcl8.5 for lfs system
[18:25] <mib_rug7yxm5> damn
[18:25] <LjL> brant: uhm no not really (to the first question, not sure about the latter), although you can move /etc and /boot to some backup names, and use the alternate cd to reinstall without reformatting - will have to do some fiddling in the alt+f2 console to achieve that
[18:25] <brant> mib_rug7yxm5, you might look for support from the driver maintainer?
[18:25] <sanjud> brant what are you trying to do?
[18:25] <Titan8990> mib_rug7yxm5, perhaps you should try #aircrack-ng
[18:25] <brant> LjL not a bad idea
[18:25] <LjL> brant: but what is the problem that makes you need to do a recovery install?
[18:26] <rainium_mint> did anyone catch that?
[18:26] <Titan8990> mib_rug7yxm5, although I don't think they are very welcoming of new linux users....
[18:26] <brant> sanity-, I had a power failure that caused some file damage
[18:26] <brant> so some files were gone after fsck
[18:26] <rainium_mint> i tried partitioning my disk to install fedora along with ubuntu but the installation failed and now when i try to boot up it leaves me on a screen in which i am suppose to use commands.. the prompt is 'initramfs'
[18:26] <brant> like apt-get
[18:26] <lyhana8> what's the matter with ekiga, he can detect my webcam despite cheese can
[18:26] <brant> and dpkg
[18:26] <brant> so the system boots and runs
[18:26] <LjL> brant: sounds awful. have you run smartmontools (and perhaps badblocks) to make sure your drive wasn't physically damaged?
[18:26] <brant> but samba won't work
[18:26] <danking> LjL: Bah!  I hate it when it's not my fault that something isn't working.  That always makes it harder to fix...
[18:26] <brant> a few other things won't because apt-get is gone as is dpkg and python
[18:27] <geeksquad1> my desktop STILL wont work
[18:27] <brant> LjL, well no but if I get it rolling I can just ghost it
[18:27] <brant> to a new drive afterwards
[18:27] <geeksquad1> it is a hp w2207
[18:27] <brant> fsck is clean now
[18:27] <defrysk> rainium_mint, sound like you have to do a grub rescue
[18:27] <rainium_mint> brant cant you just download a .deb package from ubuntu?
[18:27] <defrysk> rainium_mint, to get back into ubuntu
[18:27] <geeksquad1> and rebooting and trying to fix x wont work
[18:27] <LjL> brant: i'd still do the checks before reinstalling, or you might end up with another broken (possibly subtly broken) install
[18:27] <rainium_mint> how do i do that defrysk?
[18:28] <pbeanbag> is there something like kppp but better suited for gnome?
[18:28] <LjL> rainium_mint: he said dpkg is gone...
[18:28] <rainium_mint> ahh..

[18:29] <horstle> i just wanted to hear some mp3...
[18:29] <rainium_mint> defrysk, how do i do a grub rescue?
[18:29] <LjL> brant: uhm - it would seem that current Ubuntu CDs have a "rescue" option built-in (been long since i actually ran an Ubuntu CD...)
[18:29] <defrysk> rainium_mint, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[18:30] <rainium_mint> do  think id be better off just installing fedora and getting it over with?
[18:30] <geeksquad1> how do i change my screen resoulution to somthing not listed it the little app that lets you change it
[18:30] <defrysk> rainium_mint, in this case its after installing fedora, but its about the same procedure
[18:30] <n8tuserf> brant -> i coud be wrong, but doing a  debootstrap to a directory installs the basic ubuntu dir structure, very basic,
[18:30] <rainium_mint> ok
[18:31] <rainium_mint> thanks for the help

[18:36] <LegendaryDarkKni> Hello, people i need a little help. I run Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop and i want to set up an VPN connection, having ethernet connection working, and with admininstrator rights. Add button seems to be disabled. Thanks beforehand
[18:36] <brant> n8tuserf, how do I do that? I'm not familiar
[18:37] <n8tuserf> brant read this please https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot  to setup a new install basically
[18:37] <brant> ok thanks :D
[18:38] <Apolo> ubuntu-br
[18:38] <LegendaryDarkKni> hey... Help please...
[18:38] <Othor> Legendary
[18:38] <Othor> what add button?
[18:39] <LegendaryDarkKni> In the connections window... You know, accessible trough tray (or whatever is it called properly, i switched just yesterday)
[18:39] <Titan8990> LegendaryDarkKni, you have to click unlock
[18:40] <LegendaryDarkKni> Titan8990, uh, the problem is, i don't SEE the button. Could you please screenshot it?
[18:40] <oCean_> LegendaryDarkKni: first install the vpn plugin
[18:41] <oCean_> LegendaryDarkKni: "sudo apt-get install network-manager-openvpn"
[18:41] <Dreamglider> how do i set "no" poxy in terminal ?
[18:41] <Dreamglider> proxy
[18:41] <Titan8990> LegendaryDarkKni, I don't use GUIs
[18:41] <S7UMPY> anyone know how to get a webcam to work with ubuntu 8.10?
[18:41] <brant> n8tuserf I can't install debootstrap  .deb file
[18:41] <brant> dpkg is missing
[18:41] <Titan8990> LegendaryDarkKni, thus, I don't even have a GUI network app
[18:41] <oCean_> !webcam | S7UMPY
[18:41] <LegendaryDarkKni> Will try.... Apt-get is acting somewhat strange, though, it does not even install aplications listed in help file
[18:41] <Titan8990> LegendaryDarkKni, but I do know that 8.04 added "unlock" buttons to things such as that
[18:42] <Othor> Titan8990: there is not unlock oh the gui in 8.10... i just checked
[18:42] <Dreamglider> i set the network proxy to use Direct connection but apt and synergy still say that ISASRV(school proxy) could not be resolved
[18:42] <Titan8990> LegendaryDarkKni, try configuring in /etc/network/interfaces
[18:42] <LegendaryDarkKni> where is this /etc?
[18:42] <oCean_> Titan8990: Othor nm manager vpn plugin needs to be installed
[18:42] <oCean_> LegendaryDarkKni: after installing vpn plugin the button will be enabled
[18:43] <Titan8990> oCean_, wasn't aware, I wil back up from helping on this one
[18:43] <Titan8990> LegendaryDarkKni, / is the root directory a UNIX filesystem so /etc/ is a directory on the root of the filesystem
[18:44] <marqueed> how can i tile my windows to fit the screen size equally?
[18:44] <n8tuserf> brant -> i dont know then, i would think debootstrap is already installed on yours, its the diff version for newer ones that you have to download
[18:44] <LjL> LegendaryDarkKni: just try typing "sudo apt-get install openvpn", then your VPN-related button in the network config applet might get enabled
[18:44] <oCean_> Titan8990: np, vpn setup through cli / file editing might be hard for a 2nd-day-linux-user :)
[18:44] <UncleD-> Anyone understand this error with pcre when compiling php5? pcre keeps crashing my php5 compilation: http://pastie.org/406229 <---
[18:44] <LegendaryDarkKni> is openvpn included in system, just not installed? I wonder why do i must install stuff myself? I don't even know about it
[18:44] <Titan8990> UncleD-, mentioned something earlier, why aern't you using th package manager?
[18:44] <nivalis> marqueed, you can use a tiling wm?
[18:44] <nikkose> hello
[18:45] <nikkose> id like some help with firefox java plugin
[18:45] <marqueed> nivalis: by that, you mean?
[18:45] <Titan8990> UncleD-, I am fairly certain php is built with gd from the repositories, you just need to enable it in php.ini
[18:45] <oCean_> LegendaryDarkKni: on the install cd there is a default collection of software. So after installing, you can add tons of software you like/want/need etc
[18:45] <bakarat> do i need the "groovy" package to execute groovy scripts on the commandline?
[18:45] <LjL> oCean_: he's gone...
[18:45] <oCean_> LjL: a well.. :(
[18:45] <nikkose> which java firefox plugin should I install?
[18:46] <nivalis> marqueed, a window manager that tile the windows for you, if you want your windows to be tiled by default that is.
[18:46] <marqueed> nivalis: what would my options be?
[18:46] <oCean_> nikkose: "flashplugun-nonfree"
[18:46] <oCean_> nikkose: ow sorry.. java
[18:47] <nivalis> marqueed, dwm, wmii, ratpoison, stumpwm, awesome, to mention a few
[18:47] <Titan8990> marqueed, I believe that there is a compiz function that will do it, not 100%
[18:48] <default> audio just flaked out..   how do I start it again without rebooting?
[18:48] <marqueed> Titan8990: there's maximumize, similar
[18:49] <malakhi> nikkose: I personally use openjdk-6-jre, but the Sun JRE is sun-java6-jre
[18:49] <willa> is there any link to "how to join to fedora domain controller"?
[18:50] <UncleD-> Titan8990: i'm not using the package manager because gd is not properly working and i found a forum where people had the same problem.
[18:50] <Titan8990> willa, domain controller, as in, and LDAP server?
[18:50] <f0wl> hey there
[18:50] <willa> yes...like LDAP server
[18:50] <f0wl> short question
[18:50] <nivalis> marqueed, there is also grid, but that seems like a lot of bloat for making the windows tile?
[18:50] <f0wl> i just killed gnome/gdm and booted from live cd
[18:50] <Titan8990> willa, and what are you wanting to authenticate to the ldap server? users that log in?
[18:50] <f0wl> is there a way to reinstall these packets onto the harddisk from the cd ?
[18:51] <_VIM_> !enter | f0wl
[18:51] <willa> Titan8990 yes i want just login but i can't
[18:51] <marqueed> grid: another wm?
[18:51] <nivalis> marqueed, no its a plugin for compiz
[18:52] <marqueed> nivalis: there has to be a simpler way - i just want a keyboard shortcut that fits two windows side by side, three windows left top bottom, four to corners, etc
[18:52] <Titan8990> willa, I still feel I am short on information but I believe this will help: http://www.saas.nsw.edu.au/solutions/ldap-auth-pam.html
[18:52] <n8tuserf> default -> like a reboot not really,  sudo telinit 1  then when you're in single user, telinit 2
[18:52] <Othor> default: sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[18:53] <willa> Titan8990 thanks i will read it
[18:53] <f0wl> _VIM_: k, noted, but is there also another advice you can give me related to my question?
[18:53] <nikkose> malakhi, thanks :)

[18:56] <_VIM_> f0wl: I just re-read your question, but im not entirely sure what you mean, are you trying to install Ubuntu from a live CD or are you just trying to use it like to chat and stuff on?
[18:56] <nivalis> marqueed, what is your current window manager?
[18:57] <marqueed> compiz
[18:57] <LjL> !latest | IdentifyTarget
[18:57] <Sepero> shadewind: It would be risky, but you could try adding the next version of Ubuntu to your sources.list. Other than that, probably compiling is your only option.
[18:57] <marqueed> nivalis: the grid plugin isn't packaged?
[18:57] <Pici> Sepero, shadewind: Please do NOT add the development version of Ubuntu to your sources, it will break things.

[18:59] <Wessel> hello, small question: can u set in Ubuntu (gnome) on desktop 1 t there are two panels visible, and on desktop 2 just 1 panel?
[18:59] <f0wl> _VIM_: i am using ubuntu as workingstation, bad thing is, i just installed ISPConfig locally to try it out before installing it on a server. bad thing about is, that it deselected a lot of packages, that were essential to a nice GUI, like gnome and gdm, and in my stupidity i did not check the list of packets that will be autoremoved by apt-get, and now gdm & gnome are gone. my question is, how can i install particular packet
[18:59] <f0wl> s onto the harddisk from the live cd - without doing a complete reinstall of ubuntu from the live cd
[18:59] <S7UMPY> is there a way to burn a .dmg file on ubuntu?
[19:00] <LjL> IdentifyTarget: 0.8.4a appears to be in backports, according to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+source/lirc/0.8.4a-0ubuntu2~intrepid1
[19:00] <Titan8990> f0wl, you would have to set up a chroot envirnmnet
[19:00] <f0wl> how can i install particular packets from the live cd onto the harddisk without doing a complete reinstall of ubuntu
[19:00] <_VIM_> f0wl: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop should do it
[19:00] <LjL> IdentifyTarget: or at least slated for backports
[19:00] <Sepero> shadewind: getdeb.com
[19:00] <josh-l> hi all, should Opera be in the multiverse/universe repos?

[19:03] <LjL> IdentifyTarget: it actually is in backports, http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=lirc&searchon=names&suite=intrepid-backports&section=all confirms it, although it doesn't show up in my own Intrepid install. i don't know why.
[19:04] <monra> any ideas?? Should I maybe ask this in the #c channel?

[19:04] <IdentifyTarget> I'm using hardy :(
[19:04] <LjL> IdentifyTarget: you're out of luck then, unless you request a hardy backports and get it done

[19:05] <_VIM_> josh-l:  If i remember correctly Opera is in 8.04
[19:05] <IdentifyTarget> all I have to do is add it to my sources.list right?
[19:05] <LjL> IdentifyTarget: though honestly, you can't really complain that packages are not the latest version if you're not using the latest version of ubuntu ;)

[19:05] <Sepero> !opera
[19:05] <LjL> IdentifyTarget: no. adding an intrepid repository to hardy may, and generally will, have ill consequences.
[19:05] <IdentifyTarget> yea yea well the latest one has a bug that prevents my app from working
[19:05] <LegendaryDarkKni> i'll explain my problem again. I tried to setup a VPN connection and add button was disabled. I was told to "sudo app-get install network-manager-openvpn" but it did not find the package
[19:06] <mchelen> is it possible to use pulse audio with soudblaster live 5.1?
[19:06] <plsd> Does anyone here use Jaunty? I reported a bug in Ubuntu 8.10 and it received a comment from someone using Jaunty saying he apparently doesn't have that problem. I don't use Ubuntu anymore so I can't give it a try myself but if someone here wants to the bug is in Seahorse, and it's this one https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/seahorse/+bug/291268
[19:06] <LjL> IdentifyTarget: you *may* try to install the *single* package from intrepid-backports, *without* adding the whole repository. that's still not guaranteed to work, and you may end up with broken packages.
[19:06] <_VIM_> its not 'app' its 'apt' LegendaryDarkKni
[19:06] <IdentifyTarget> http://xbmc.org/forum/showthread.php?t=43075
[19:06] <mchelen> !jaunty
[19:06] <LjL> IdentifyTarget: if you still want to do it, download the file at http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid-backports/i386/lirc/download and run gdebi on it.
[19:06] <LegendaryDarkKni> woops. yeah apt-get... whatever, it just said that package was not found
[19:07] <_VIM_> LegendaryDarkKni: do 'apt-cache search vpn'
[19:07] <Ienorand> Is kpackagekit equivalent to add/rem + update-man from gnome+
[19:07] <Sepero> !netsplit
[19:08] <josh-l> anyone have opera installed via a repository? I cant seem to add it... using either ubuntu repos or deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/ stable nonfree
[19:08] <oCean_> LegendaryDarkKni: you just installed right? Might want to do "sudo apt-get update" first. Then search for the package: "apt-cache search openvpn"
[19:09] <_VIM_> LegendaryDarkKni: do you have all your sources enabled? http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/sources
[19:09] <LegendaryDarkKni> wait a second... do i need to have a install-cd in my drive?
[19:09] <Ienorand> Is kpackageKit supposed to ask for sudo pwd on start?
[19:09] <_VIM_> LegendaryDarkKni: not unless the box is not connected to the internet
[19:09] <oCean_> LegendaryDarkKni: no, it will try and fetch download locations (repositories) from internet

[19:10] <Othor> LegendaryDarkKni: try this    sudo apt-get install openvpn network-manager-openvpn
[19:11] <tonybaloney867> Question: Rhythmbox seems to scan any USB mass storage device I plug in while it's loaded and playing music. Is there any way of preventing this behavior?
[19:11] <LjL> i have a TV card with a remote control. the remove seems to be recognized, because an infrared-related module is loaded, and it shows up as /dev/input/event5 apparently. but if i "cat" that, or try to use lirc, nothing ever happens. ideas?
[19:11] <tonybaloney867> I'd rather it not scan my whole 80GB external hard drive every time I plug it in :)
[19:11] <oCean_> Othor: he has to do the apt-get update first, for the packages to be found
[19:12] <Othor> oCean: oh i must have missed something, thanks
[19:12] <plugin_> !fr
[19:12] <BorkisDrizzt> How do I get sound in .wmv files with mplayer?
[19:12] <LegendaryDarkKni> oCean_	simply update? or like "... update network-manager-openvpn"?
[19:12] <ActionParsnip> LjL: does xev react when you press the remote control buttons?
[19:12] <oCean_> LegendaryDarkKni: "sudo apt-get update"
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> !medibuntu | BorkisDrizzt
[19:13] <_VIM_> O.o italics show up in konversation
[19:13] <LegendaryDarkKni> oCean_ thanks... I'll try.
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> BorkisDrizzt: get the w32 or w64codecs from medibuntu
[19:14] <Joseph> Hello i was wondering how to do you make an Email server?
[19:14] <LjL> ActionParsnip: uhm, never used xev - should something show up in its window, or should i look in the console output? and do i just start it as "xev" with no options?
[19:14] <_VIM_> Joseph: try in ##networking
[19:14] <BorkisDrizzt> ActionParsnip: shouldn't things like that get installed with the Restricted-extras package?
[19:14] <oCean_> !mta | Joseph
[19:14] <Wicked> bah bluetooth is broken on intrepid :(
[19:14] <Joseph> is it a download
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> BorkisDrizzt: not sure, its worth a butchers
[19:15] <nightrid3r> !MailServer
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> LjL: run it in terminal and when you press the buttons, make a note of the codes
[19:15] <LjL> ActionParsnip: no, nothing happens
[19:15] <vtec> so, i installed samba but i don't know how i do now
[19:15] <Joseph> oh so you have to ask an host or can we host it on Unbuntu?
[19:16] <LjL> ActionParsnip: i am assuming it is recognized because "cat /proc/bus/input/devices" gives Name="saa7134 IR (Kworld/Tevion V-Str" Handlers=kbd event5
[19:16] <_VIM_> you can host it on your ubuntu Joseph
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> LjL: you can see what it does if you press keys on your keyboard and special media keys if you have some
[19:17] <LjL> ActionParsnip: it does stuff even when i just move my mouse. but nothing at all when i press buttons on the remote.
[19:17] <_VIM_> Joseph: i'd get ubuntu server edition for mail server personally, NOT the desktop one :)
[19:17] <Joseph> kool so i could  have like Joey@DOMAIN.co.uk?
[19:17] <Joseph> I should have a Server one
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> LjL: then the reciever isnt generating inputs for the system
[19:17] <Titan8990> Joseph, as long as you own the domain, you can do what you want with it
[19:18] <kristian1> sudo apt-get install xxxxx is very useful, but only if you know the name (xxxxx), how can i browse/search the content via cli?
[19:18] <Titan8990> Joseph, however, mail servers are rather difficult to set up, configure, and maintain
[19:18] <Joseph> do you have to purchase it?
[19:18] <LjL> ActionParsnip: i guess, but in that case i wonder why it's recognized as an input device in the first place...
[19:18] <_VIM_> Joseph: yep you could do that with dyndns.org's free DNS names
[19:18] <Titan8990> Joseph, no, this is linux :)
[19:18] <Dillizar> can i install ubuntu with wine, emulating that i am installing ubuntu in windows??
[19:18] <Dillizar> :)
[19:18] <Joseph> I mean the email DOmain
[19:19] <Titan8990> Joseph, only if you wanted what is know as "groupware" which includes functions like calender synchronization
[19:19] <Joseph> oh na
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> LjL: what remote control set is it?
[19:19] <Joseph> ill just keep the emial basic
[19:19] <Titan8990> Joseph, ah, typically, yes, but if you already own a domain, you will just need to configure the MX records
[19:19] <_VIM_> for the domain name you'll need a free DNS or buy one
[19:19] <Joseph> so i could prob host it on my PC and rent email domains?
[19:19] <LjL> ActionParsnip: oh, it's a quite totally unknown card, "Empire Premium TV". i know the chipset is SAA7134, and that's about all i know
[19:20] <Titan8990> Joseph, a domain is a domain, there is nothing that makes a domain an "email" domain
[19:20] <Joseph> i mean like
[19:20] <_VIM_> Joseph: doubtful anyone would purchase email though a home server
[19:20] <Joseph> Joe@yahoo.co.uk
[19:20] <_VIM_> email account*
[19:20] <Cyclist> Titan8990: thank you for the suggestion; I read that page but there was nothing that seemed applicable to my case; I will try installing other [mainly] audio players: if succeeds, I will remove and reinstall Rhythmbox [but this does not seem to be the cause of my problem: more of a misconfiguration kind, I believe...]
[19:20] <Joseph> can you have Joe@Zopicmate.com
[19:20] <Joseph> Zopicmate is my custom website doamin
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> LjL: what does lsusb identify it as?
[19:21] <Titan8990> Cyclist, I would recommend trying VLC, it works with everything
[19:21] <oCean_> kristian1: use "apt-cache search <string>" like "apt-cache search php"
[19:21] <Joseph> you can`t be so sure LOL
[19:21] <Dillizar> Cyclist what is your problem
[19:21] <_VIM_> Joseph: this is getting offtopic, try asking in ##networking :)
[19:21] <ewook> question - how does NetworkManager in 8.10 (ubu) make the 'call' when using a usb-3g-dongle, I thought it was pon and poff, but it never added a profile - so my question is then, how do I replicate the settings so I could use pon and poff?
[19:21] <Joseph> kk
[19:21] <ActionParsnip> LjL: i'm guessing the remote control thing is usb based
[19:21] <kristian1> oCean_ : ok, thanks! will give it a try. :-) do you by any chance know what the "-y" does here: "sudo apt-get -y install sauerbraten"?
[19:22] <dongch> dje
[19:22] <dongch> just a test
[19:22] <ewook> kristian1: -y = yes to all
[19:22] <MFen> anyone know how to make gnome-terminal --tab-with-profile=foo actually work? it's supposed to put a new tab in an existing window, and it's broken
[19:22] <MFen> i always get a new window instead
[19:22] <Cyclist> Titan8990: thank you, again
[19:22] <oCean_> kristian1: have you tried "man apt-get" ? The -y flag actually is a 'assume yes' on all questions asked during install
[19:22] <Titan8990> Cyclist, np
[19:22] <mchelen> how do i enable pulse audio to use with soudblaster live 5.1?
[19:22] <LjL> ActionParsnip: no, it's a PCI card, and the remote sensor plugs in by means of a headphones-like plug
[19:22] <kristian1> ewook : thanks.
[19:22] <kristian1> oCean_ : thanks.
[19:23] <mpenar> Witam
[19:23] <thecookie> How would I install grub on my disk? Some how during the installation it was "installed" on the usb drive I booted from.
[19:23] <joakimk> I'm syncing a C++ project between work (fedora 10) and home (ubuntu 8.10). At work, #include <libpq-fe.h> compiles, but at home I need to edit to #include <postgresql/libpq-fe.h>. People at #C++ recommended I'd just move the library here on my home laptop, to get equal paths. How do I do that?
[19:23] <LjL> ActionParsnip: (it was quite likely a terrible purchase - for starters, it seems it stops my computer from automatically turning off)
[19:23] <_VIM_> !sound | mchelen
[19:23] <LjL> ActionParsnip: the remote does work in Windows so it's not the hardware's fault in and of itself
[19:23] <Titan8990> joakimk, just use a symlink to point to the location you want
[19:23] <ActionParsnip> MFen: wrong sysntax, try --tab-with-profile-internal-id=PROFILEID
[19:23] <ActionParsnip> MFen: http://pwet.fr/man/linux/commandes/gnome_terminal
[19:24] <joakimk> Titan8990: Would you please explain? :)
[19:24] <zicho> anyone using pcsx?
[19:24] <ActionParsnip> LjL: ok cool so what does lspci say the card is?
[19:24] <kristian1> oCean_ : oh. i didn't realize that apt-get had a manpage. ;-) thanks.
[19:25] <MFen> ActionParsnip: ok, what should PROFILEID *be* then?
[19:25] <LjL> ActionParsnip: 00:09.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7133/SAA7135 Video Broadcast Decoder (rev d1)
[19:25] <Titan8990> joakimk, if your lib is in say, /usr/lib/mylib and you needed to be in /usr/lib/somethingelsehere/mylib you would do: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/mylib /usr/lib/somethingeslehere/mylib
[19:25] <ActionParsnip> MFen: the name of the profile of terminal, you may need to view the settings to get the profile name
[19:26] <LjL> kristian1: virtually every console command has a manpage
[19:26] <xSlack> Has anyone here ever used gnump3d,. if so message me
[19:26] <joakimk> Titan8990: so (just to be safe), sudo ln -s /usr/include/postgresql /usr/include
[19:26] <joakimk> Titan8990: is that correct?
[19:26] <MFen> ActionParsnip: i don't think that does what you think it does
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> LjL: does the tv card work ok?
[19:27] <Titan8990> joakimk, uhh no
[19:27] <Guus1982> ola
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> MFen: i dont use gnome-terminal but theres a man page for it and i couldnt see the option in there that you stated
[19:27] <MFen> ActionParsnip: --tab-with-profile is in fact an option, it just doesn't do what i thought it did (talking on ##gnome).  --tab-with-profile-internal-id is documented as being something the shell itself uses to do session management
[19:27] <_VIM_> !nl | Guus1982
[19:27] <Guus1982> ive got a question about laptop powermanagement
[19:27] <Titan8990> joakimk, you are symlinking to a location that postgresql is already at
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> MFen: i see
[19:27] <LjL> ActionParsnip: mostly, some trouble changing channels, and the audio doesn't work unless you pipe /dev/dsp1 into /dev/dsp, but it "works"
[19:28] <dongch> Akasha
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> LjL: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/saa7133saa7135-tv-tuner-help-513915/
[19:28] <_VIM_> dongch: language?
[19:28] <kristian1> LjL : true, but for some reason i must have made up my mind that apt-get was not a "real" command. :-P
[19:28] <ewook> I'll ask again - NetworkManager can handle 3g-usb-dongle and sets up the connection. How to call it from bash? I thought it was pon and poff, but njet luck there.
[19:28] <joakimk> Titan8990: It seems to me the difference between work and home is the postgresql dir. I want to move the lib to it's parent dir, on my laptop. But that appears to be /usr/include...? No?
[19:29] <ActionParsnip> LjL: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-411639.html
[19:29] <Titan8990> joakimk, well, that command would have symlinked the directory /usr/include/postgresql to /usr/include BUT its already in /usr/include
[19:30] <joakimk> Titan8990: yes, I see
[19:30] <dongch> - -!
[19:30] <ActionParsnip> LjL: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/234655
[19:30] <LjL> ActionParsnip: thanks, but those don't mention the remote... they mention the module options for the card itself, but i've set them already
[19:30] <joakimk> Titan8990: But, it being in /include, why do I have to #include <postgresql/libpq-fe.h>?
[19:30] <joakimk> Titan8990: how can I make it so I can do #include <libpq-fe.h>
[19:31] <_VIM_> dongch: do you have a question?
[19:31] <Guus1982> my laptop wont hibernate after closing the lid
[19:31] <ActionParsnip> LjL: have you installed lirc?
[19:32] <Titan8990> joakimk, try: sudo ln -s /usr/include/postgresql/libpq-fe.h /usr/include
[19:32] <ActionParsnip> !info lirc
[19:32] <zmay> how do i check cpu temp?

[19:32] <ActionParsnip> zmay: http://www.bradtrupp.com/ubuntu-cpu-temperature.html
[19:33] <LjL> ActionParsnip: yeah, i've tried that too. but it doesn't have my chip listed, so i just had to configure to use /dev/input/eventX as its source, which goes back to the problem that there's nothing there

[19:34] <blizzkid> lo all. I stumbled upon http://www.planetsurfer.net/2008/06/05/use-a-cheap-digital-picture-frame-as-a-secondary-display/ and happen to have such a device, so I downloaded the files, but... I'm clueless as to how to get the firmware on the device. Any help?
[19:34] <_VIM_> Jaguar13: english please :)

[19:36] <joakimk> Hehe, anyone else? I've got some .h files in /usr/include/postgresql/, and I want to symlink everything "out/up" to just /usr/include/. Just linking libpq-fe.h is good, but doesn't solve everything. How can I symlink everything, so to speak?
[19:36] <MFen> blizzkid: thanks, does terminator allow you to remotely attach a tab?
[19:36] <_VIM_> lol did Titan bail on you joakimk?
[19:36] <RatPackSopra-> Hello Guys, got a simple question ...I'm running 8.10 and I'm ashamed to admit that I've never used a virtual machine ...never really had a reason to, but after seeing that I "might" be able to run iTunes from a VR (I must use iTunes since I have a 2nd gen iPod Touch) I'd like to give it a try. I have Sun xVM VirtualBox installed, but I'm not sure if it's the best choice. I have a bunch of silly questions like; do I have to ins
[19:36] <RatPackSopra-> tall the OS (e.g. Win XP) and others. Is there a good channel or a better VM to use?
[19:36] <joakimk> _VIM_: yep ;)
[19:37] <blizzkid> MFen: well.. terminator isn't really tabbed, rather split, but you can zoom in to one terminal
[19:37] <blizzkid> attaching a tab... no
[19:37] <_VIM_> RatPackSopra-: ask in #vbox
[19:37] <MFen> blizzkid: boo then. i really need that
[19:38] <Scunizi> RatPackSopra-: Virtualbox works great and yes.. you have to install anything from win200 to vista in the vm to get accesss to itunes.
[19:38] <tonyyarusso> joakimk: you would do a for loop in bash to get a file listing and the create a link for each member of that.  (#bash for syntax details)
[19:38] <MFen> blizzkid: (this sure looks like tabs to me: http://software.jessies.org/terminator/ )
[19:38] <joakimk> tonyyarusso: so the solution is to make a bunch of symlinks, for all .h files in postgresql/ ?
[19:38] <Ian__> xchat hangs on too many channels?!
[19:38] <Scunizi> RatPackSopra-: also if you installed the version available directly from virtual box you're better off because the one in the repo's doesn't have usb support which you'll need of course for the ipod

[19:40] <joakimk> tonyyarusso: know what? After linking libpq-fe.h and the other file, postgres_ext.h, which -fe.h apparantly needs, my C++ project compiles with just #include <libpq-fe.h> :) That's what I want to do

[19:51] <TetrisPie> I installed Ubuntu on my friend's computer using Wubi, and when I try to boot into Ubuntu, I get a flashing underscore in the upper left-hand corner, and that's it.

[19:53] <TetrisPie> Ah.

[19:53] <Cool_Nick> I compiled my own kernel which also created an initrd.  When I reboot and set my vga option, it works.  But around the time it goes to the ubuntu spash screen(which is the initrd time), the resolution changes back.  Is there a way to fix this...or is there a console command to put the resolution how I want?
[19:53] <_VIM_> Musfuut: np, i know the feeling of frustration, just today infact my sounds decided to die, no warning, nothing. heh
[19:54] <Cool_Nick> I only care about console
[19:54] <iowershtfj> how do you force i386 architecture onto a 64 bit system?
[19:54] <spree> iowershtfj you build from source on the 64 bit system.
[19:55] <iowershtfj> spree no there's a faster way
[19:55] <ActionParsnip> iowershtfj: dpkg --force-all -i <deb file>
[19:55] <krisik28> some1 ?
[19:55] <spree> iowershtfj If you're sure, then you don't need to ask us
[19:55] <ActionParsnip> iowershtfj: you will need ia32libs

[19:59] <notmeeeeee> or find
[19:59] <bindaas> find . -iname file*

[20:01] <kesi> hi all, is wicd a good option if I'm having problems connecting to WPA networks?

[20:02] <ZykoticK9> iowershtfj, is it a deb your installing?
[20:02] <iowershtfj> yes ZykoticK9
[20:02] <notmeeeeee> marko-_-: first thing i tried. that kills X but gdm just restarts again
[20:02] <jeffjeffdejeff> can someone please try and connect to my pc? (remote desktop) let me know if you get a login prompt
[20:02] <ZykoticK9> iowershtfj, use the regular command line deb install but add "--force-architecture"
[20:03] <marko-_-> notmeeeeee, i'm not a pro, but you could kill x-session-manager
[20:03] <hwilde> hi I have two monitors and i'm running two separate x screens.  when my mouse and keyboard focus are only on the right monitor for awhile, both monitors start to dim and go into sleep mode.  only activity in the left xscreen wakes it up.  how can I fix it so it recognized activity in both xscreens?
[20:03] <marko-_-> or gdm ? i don't know, i guess it will always restart itself... i'm not 100% sure... just remove it if you don't want it
[20:03] <notmeeeeee> right back into X again

[20:06] <hmw> !sound
[20:06] <ZykoticK9> in the terminal use "dpkg -I --force-architecture <filename>.deb" should work
[20:07] <ZykoticK9> iowershtfj, did you see that last message, forgot to address it to you...  you'll also have to be in the directory with the deb for that to work.

[20:19] <Akuma> hello, I managed to connect to the openvpn I have access to, but I cannot navigate the net. Does anyone know how I could solve this problem?
[20:19] <n2diy> Rioting_Pacifist, so the new disk has to be installed as primary master, right?
[20:19] <NativeAngels> can anyone tell me how to make  local binddns server public
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> annoia: its gonna be messy for a bit getting the deps sorted
[20:20] <Akuma> btw, I want to use my boxe's internet connection and not the VPN's
[20:20] <Akuma> to surf the net
[20:20] <NotADJ> Heh, I can't join. That would make +20
[20:20] <Akuma> I just need to access the vpn to access the network that is behind it
[20:20] <annoia> ActionParsnip - Yes, I really don't want to mix 64bit and 32bit packages...
[20:20] <Rioting_Pacifist> n2diy: the actual disk order shouldnt matter aslong as its given 1st boot priority in bios
[20:20] <SineDeviance> the partitioner comes up in ubiquity but the window just stays white, it never shows my drives
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> Akuma: set your default gateway as your router and it should use that for www
[20:21] <homy> Help!!! per-recipient rules for php signing email in evolution - like in enigmail thunderbird!#
[20:21] <homy> How?
[20:21] <annoia> ActionParsnip - It would be nice, though, if the packages in the repository fit together - then I wouldn't have this problem. Wouldn't I still have the dependency problem in a chroot environment? Or could I make a clean 32bit env. there?
[20:21] <yoyit2> ActionParsnip: ok i did the install, but now how do you run the program?
[20:21] <Akuma> ActionParsnip: where could I find information on how to acheive that?
[20:21] <n2diy> Rioting_Pacifist, Bios only lets you select HD, CDROM, etc..., the boot order is determined by where the drive is connected to the IDE bus, so it must be as the primary master, IICR?
[20:22] <Rioting_Pacifist> if your bios wont let you switch then that is correct, but that may cause problems with windows
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> annoia: they do, just for the installed arch, you are forcing some package installs so deps arent met well
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> yoyit2: what program did you install?
[20:24] <n8tuserf> annoia -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot  am trying this out too now
[20:24] <yoyit2> ActionParsnip: the lightscrbe deb file

[20:25] <n8tuserf> whose got debootstrap installed? is it in your /usr/lib/debootstrap  or in /usr/share/debootstrap  ?

[20:27] <Sepero> pbeanbag: rmmod
[20:28] <pbeanbag> Sepero: thats it thanks
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> LjL: you may need to pickup a usb remote thats nice with linux and configure keys using xev
[20:28] <tonyyarusso> pbeanbag: modprobe -r
[20:28] <adi1> hi all
[20:28] <tonyyarusso> I guess either of those will work.
[20:28] <Sepero> hi
[20:29] <adi1> I have a crash on totem on every video format i try to upload on totem
[20:29] <Sepero> Sounds like a problem
[20:29] <adi1> im on interpid with last gnome version and totem
[20:29] <adi1> it also hapens on vlc
[20:29] <Sepero> tonyyarusso: You handle it
[20:30] <LjL> ActionParsnip: i have another usb tv card, it's just this one remote is, uh, nicer
[20:30] <ray_ray> ok i have a network manager problem. This problem is currently that nm refuses to work at home but works fine at university? I'm running with Intel Corporation PRO/100 VE Network Connection (rev 02) anyone have an idea?
[20:30] <adi1> i cant see any video format when in all ok with audio format
[20:30] <tonyyarusso> adi1: like a program closes type crash, or it just won't play?
[20:30] <adi1> what can I do?
[20:30] <adi1> thanks
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> LjL: looks like the remote you have sucks for linux
[20:30] <LjL> ActionParsnip: also, it gets on my nerves that it it *somehow* recognized. if it didn't recognize it at all, and google confirmed it's not supported, then ok
[20:30] <adi1> it crash and it closes itself
[20:30] <natschil> hi, does anyone know how I can mount a virtualbox harddrive? I have an instance of ubuntu running on virtualbox with a sample server on it, which has some files I would like to get (I am looking for a way that doesn't require me to actually run the image)
[20:31] <adi1> very fast just after i upload the viddeo
[20:31] <adi1> it happens in vlc too so i think is some decoder issue
[20:31] <ZykoticK9> natschil, non-trivial, you can use some tool out there to convert the image to a raw format, which can then be mounted, but your probably better off just starting the image...
[20:31] <Sepero> ray_ray: Is this on a laptop you take back and forth from uni?
[20:31] <dennda> What do I need to tell VLC player so that it opens the fullscreen movie playback on a specific monitor?
[20:32] <ray_ray> yeah
[20:32] <qpdb> hello, i have got a problem while mounting via sshfs, my mount options are 'uid=1000,gid=33,umask=0644,allow_other' (ids according to designated ids on target-system) .. creating something ends up with group=1000.. it seems 'gid=33' to be unconsidered. what's wrong with it?
[20:32] <ray_ray> i find network manager better to use at uni
[20:32] <LjL> ActionParsnip: i was even thinking - since the remote sensor uses a 3.5 plug as connection - i could try sticking it into the soundcard's line-in... and decode the waveforms somehow =) i'm just afraid to fry the transistor.
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> LjL: thatd be sweeeeet
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> LjL: not the frying bit
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> ljl: back up the transistor first LOL
[20:33] <adi1> I have installed all gstreamer good bad and ugly decoders
[20:33] <adi1> like i normally do after a fresh install
[20:33] <Sepero> ray_ray: What is the problem(s) you experience at home? And does this problem also happen with other pc's at home?
[20:33] <adi1> but in interpid wont work
[20:33] <LjL> ActionParsnip: lirc actually supports connecting stuff to the soundcard, although it's usually somewhat more involved circuits than just a bare light transistor
[20:33] <Akuma> ActionParsnip: I added my router as default gateway, however when I go on pages or ping the net it's slow
[20:33] <Akuma> is this normal?
[20:34] <ActionParsnip> Akuma: you may find its using the vpn
[20:34] <ray_ray> it does not connect to the lan it picks up that i've plugged it in but cannot establish a connection
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> Akuma: you may need to specify some routes
[20:35] <Sepero> ray_ray: Is your pc dual boot?
[20:35] <ubuntu__> can i just install kde or do i have to install kubuntu-desktop?
[20:35] <ray_ray> yeah
[20:35] <ray_ray> ?
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> Akuma: like anything destined for the vpn, use the vpn device, anything else use the local web
[20:35] <adi1> is anyone familiar with codecs problems and totem
[20:35] <ubuntu__> adi1: what problem?
[20:35] <ray_ray> windows and ubuntu
[20:35] <Sepero> ray_ray: So you boot into MS at home, and into Linux at uni, yes?
[20:35] <sebastienyoga> !fr | sebastienyoga
[20:35] <ray_ray> nope usually just linux
[20:36] <Akuma> ActionParsnip: I see
[20:36] <ray_ray> windowz if i REEAALY need to only
[20:36] <Akuma> so basically play around with the route command
[20:36] <adi1> ok I have an instant crash of totem and vlc on uploading any video file format on interpid
[20:36] <Sepero> ray_ray: But MS connect to the internet just fine from home, yes?
[20:36] <ray_ray> yeah that works fine
[20:36] <EagleScreen> :D
[20:36] <ray_ray> just network manager that doesn't want to work right now
[20:37] <LjL> ActionParsnip: uhm... it actually produces sound when connected to line-in (but not to mic-in, and line-in is far too faint)
[20:37] <adi1> what I can do?
[20:37] <ray_ray> lan works at uni just not at home if i use network manager
[20:37] <Sepero> ray_ray: Have went into the network manager settings to see if there is any difference from your MS settings?
[20:37] <arcsky> i cant stream .mp3 over samba with audacious player. does anyone got an idea why?

[20:38] <ActionParsnip> !vpn | Akuma
[20:38] <Sepero> ray_ray: welc
[20:38] <adi1> I disabled all plugins on totem but no succses
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> LjL: you could use the input maybe
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> LjL: its gonna be crazy
[20:38] <adi1> I still have the same problem
[20:38] <hmw> I seem to have a selective problem with Skype; I can call my other PC and the Test Service work fine, too. But when I call a certain friend, he can hear me for about 2 seconds, until my sound completly dies system wide. Ideas?
[20:38] <adi1> since two days
[20:39] <LjL> ActionParsnip: i do suspect it would need an amplifier to be of any use. the current actually produced by a bare light transistor is tiny
[20:39] <LjL> ActionParsnip: i can only hear a sound if i keep the remote practically stuck onto the sensor
[20:39] <Jowwww> i neeed some help installing ubuntu
[20:39] <Jowwww> anyone can help?
[20:39] <Kottizen> hmw: Have you tested with other microphones?
[20:39] <_VIM_> !install
[20:39] <Besogon> Akuma, what is happened?
[20:39] <hmw> Kottizen: I use an analogue one.
[20:39] <Kottizen> Jowwww: Exactly what?
[20:39] <Jowwww> resizing partition :(
[20:39] <Jowwww> its givin me an error
[20:40] <krabador> hi people, i recovered a reiserfs root from bad sector, i run reiserfsck /dev/sda1 --fix fixable and, after an error, with --rebuild-tree. This last was good {grub start, and not before} but i've many error of files missing. can i reinstall with synaptic/livecd some fondamental package to run my old installation, only for easy backup?
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> Jowwww: make sure you md5 check your iso for the love of god
[20:40] <krabador> please help me....
[20:40] <Kottizen> hmw: Ok... Them I do not know the problem :(
[20:40] <adi1> ok thanks guys
[20:40] <Jowwww> wats md5
[20:40] <c0p3rn1c> krabador: just ask your question
[20:40] <LjL> !md5
[20:40] <hmw> Kottizen: It just happens, when I call this friend. Restarting Skype "repairs" the sound.
[20:40] <hmw> Too weird.
[20:40] <danhs> tracker doesn't seem to index my home directory at all...
[20:40] <Jowwww> yeah i did the md5
[20:40] <Jowwww> and it went fine
[20:40] <danhs> I do a search, it finds nothing....
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> Jowwww: good, its really important
[20:40] <danhs> beagle works fine, tracker nothing....
[20:40] <Kottizen> hmw: Yes. You can try to download other versions or reinstall maybe.
[20:41] <danhs> is there a simple way to restart tracker config file or somethign?
[20:41] <Kottizen> I will sleep now, bye (Sweden)
[20:41] <TruthTaco> whats the best way for me to install XFCE so i can try it, right now im using gnome, and i dont want to replace gnome just yet
[20:41] <Sepero> hmw: Sound Devices -> Auto Adjust Mixer Levels
[20:41] <DIFH-iceroot> TruthTaco: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[20:41] <hmw> Kottizen: Oh. That might be a good idea. I'll give it a try. My sound is strange with Skype anyways (problems playing sounds in the backround, while VoIPing)
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> !resize
[20:41] <c0p3rn1c> hmw: skype is not the cheapest VOIP provider out there btw
[20:41] <DIFH-iceroot> TruthTaco: at the login-screen you can choose gnome oder xfce4
[20:41] <nickrud_> TruthTaco, install xubuntu-desktop, and choose it under options->sessions on the login screen
[20:41] <TruthTaco> thanks
[20:41] <TruthTaco> what version will that get?
[20:42] <DIFH-iceroot> TruthTaco: xfce4
[20:42] <ActionParsnip> Jowwww: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot
[20:42] <hmw> Sepero: I always turn the automatic adjustment OFF. It was turned ON today for an unknown reason.
[20:42] <nickrud_> !find xfce-desktop
[20:42] <nickrud_> !info xfce-desktop
[20:42] <Sepero> hmw: ok
[20:42] <hmw> c0p3rn1c: thx. I need Skype anyways :(
[20:42] <ZykoticK9> TruthTaco, you can just install XFCE then from GDM change your session, you can have multiple Windows Managers/Environments on one system...
[20:42] <nickrud_> !info xfce4-desktop
[20:42] <nickrud_> gack
[20:42] <ActionParsnip> Jowwww: that guide tells you how to resize, make sure you backup your important data as ubuntu comes with zero warranty
[20:42] <Jowwww> thx actionparsnip
[20:42] <zash> !info xubuntu-desktop
[20:42] <ActionParsnip> !find xfce
[20:42] <Jowwww> i'll look into that and let u know :D
[20:43] <DIFH-iceroot> TruthTaco: apt-cache policy xubuntu-desktop
[20:43] <TruthTaco> ok, i noticed they just released 4.6, how do i know if thats the version im installing?
[20:43] <DIFH-iceroot> TruthTaco: will give you the paket-version
[20:43] <nickrud_> TruthTaco, 4.4.2
[20:43] <ActionParsnip> !info xfce4
[20:43] <Sepero> TruthTaco: apt-cache show package
[20:43] <ActionParsnip> nickrud see above
[20:43] <TruthTaco> ah thanks
[20:43] <krabador> hi people, i recovered a reiserfs root from bad sector, i run reiserfsck /dev/sda1 --fix fixable and, after an error, with --rebuild-tree. This last was good {grub start, and not before} but i've many error of files missing. can i reinstall with synaptic/livecd some fondamental package to run my old installation, only for easy backup?
[20:43] <_LionKing_> Greetings Do you entertain friends?
[20:43] <_LionKing_> :)
[20:44] <nickrud_> ActionParsnip, yeah, couldn't remember an exact package name for the life of me
[20:44] <ActionParsnip> _LionKing_: its a purely support channel
[20:44] <Jahooty> are there .deb packages for open office 3?
[20:44] <ActionParsnip> nickrud_: apt-cache search xfce | less
[20:44] <Sepero> Jahooty: getdeb.net
[20:44] <_LionKing_> I dont now
[20:44] <DIFH-iceroot> Jahooty: yes but not in the official repos
[20:44] <Sepero> Jahooty: They might have it
[20:44] <ActionParsnip> Jahooty: http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-OpenOffice-org-3-0-in-Ubuntu-8-10-96449.shtml
[20:44] <hmw> Kottizen, Sepero: I did not yet reboot the machine, I suspect the problem to go away by rebooting, but that wouldn't be a real solution. Skype does strange things often here. I hope, I will find the true source of the error. Thanks for your attention!
[20:44] <nickrud_> ActionParsnip, did that, where'd you think I got 4.4.2 ;)
[20:44] <Jahooty> thanks
[20:44] <ActionParsnip> nickrud_: i assume nothing :)
[20:45] <Sepero> hmw: Reboot why?
[20:45] <Sepero> hmw: I thought your sound was fixed when you shut down skype?
[20:45] <sexcopter> hi, i have a drive (on another pc on lan) mounted with sshfs, but it says 0 bytes free (and it's not actually full), so i can move anything to it. it seems to be mounted rw according to mtab. any ideas?
[20:45] <sexcopter> s/can/can't
[20:45] <hmw> Sepero: My Ubuntus (got 4) often stop doing misc. errors after a reboot. I know, rebooting Linux would usually not help, but my expirience tells another story.
[20:46] <jimmygoon> So I'm getting slicehost, should I go with hardy or intrepid for my server?
[20:46] <Sepero> hmw: ok
[20:46] <nickrud_> jimmygoon, if it's going to be a long term stable server, I'd recommend hardy. Unless you need functionality it doesn't have
[20:46] <hmw> Sepero: Skype wont let me call this one friend. I can call my other PC and the test service, though. So I suspect there is confusion somwhere in RAM.
[20:47] <nickrud_> jimmygoon, but #ubuntu-server can help you refine your requirements, probably
[20:47] <BuilderBob> Hi! Im debugging a friends computer (Ubuntu 8.10) and all the window frames for resizing, moving wondows and so forth are gone... dont know how or why this happened, but can it be fixed?
[20:47] <Sepero> hmw: Try calling me- sepero111
[20:47] <FroMaster> I've got a lot of experience with Gentoo Linux and like the idea of never having to "upgrade" my OS as I just need to keep up to date with the latest builds. With Ubuntu is the upgrade process from one release to another just as easy? (or easier because everything doesn't need to compile)
[20:47] <jimmygoon> nickrud_, its mostly just personal tinkering but I'll ask around in there. Thanks!
[20:47] <nickrud_> BuilderBob, try alt-f2   gtk-window-decorator --replace (if you're using compiz)  metacity --replace otherwise
[20:47] <c0p3rn1c> BuilderBob: it's your window manager
[20:47] <sebsebseb>  
[20:47] <vega> i just did a daily update on intrepid, these were update: libcurl3 libcurl3-gnutls libnm-glib0 libnm-util0 network-manager network-manager-gnome, after this i'm being told to reboot, why??
[20:48] <c0p3rn1c> BuilderBob: are you using compiz-fusion?
[20:48] <sebsebseb> vega: only more important stuff needs an update  normalley, but I guess network manger is pretty important really
[20:48] <SineDeviance> vega: you're being told to reboot because those packages are used by gnome desktop environment all the time
[20:48] <nickrud_> vega, probably for the network manager
[20:48] <blue-frog> vega: because of network-manager. you can still work on your computer. ther's no rush to rebooot
[20:48] <_LionKing_> FloodBot3
[20:48] <SineDeviance> to use the new packages you have to reboot
[20:48] <c0p3rn1c> window decoration righ*
[20:48] <c0p3rn1c> t
[20:48] <dotblank> vega: network manager probably asks for the sessions to restart
[20:49] <krabador> hi people, i recovered a reiserfs root from bad sector, i run reiserfsck /dev/sda1 --fix fixable and, after an error, with --rebuild-tree. This last was good {grub start, and not before} but i've many error of files missing. can i reinstall with synaptic/livecd some fondamental package to run my old installation, only for easy backup?
[20:49] <_LionKing_> speak one's friends one by one I do not understand anything, please talk
[20:49] <_LionKing_> :)
[20:49] <ZykoticK9> FroMaster, keeping Ubuntu updated is SO much easier and smoother then Gentoo (I was a Gentoo fan for many years but got tired of updates braking my system), however updating from version to version it's still recommended that you fresh install (for the most part anyways)
[20:49] <vega> so why not do a network-manager restart or something like this? sounds kinda windowsish to me..
[20:49] <sebsebseb> krabador: oh murderfs
[20:49] <nickrud_> SineDeviance, not always, in fact not often.
[20:50] <vega> SineDeviance: why not then just logout and login?
[20:50] <krabador> sebsebseb: :)
[20:50] <dotblank> vega: try restarting the session. and maybe "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
[20:50] <nickrud_> vega, it's not a service. you could do as vega just said to get the latest network manager
[20:50] <BuilderBob> c0p3rn1c: yeah! disablong compiz makes the frames come back... can that be fixed?
[20:50] <nickrud_> BuilderBob, when you re enable compiz, do they still stay off?
[20:51] <c0p3rn1c> BuilderBob: if you're using compiz-fusion you could also install compiz-icon(compiz-icon)
[20:51] <BuilderBob> nickrud_: yep
[20:51] <FroMaster> ZykoticK9: (I'm working with VMware Virtual Machines) Do you mean fresh install as in boot from an ISO image and do an upgrade *OR* create a new Virtual Machine, install the new OS version and migrate over all my applications and data?
[20:51] <vega> well my ip is static, so i guess it doesn't really matter
[20:51] <nickrud_> BuilderBob, at that point, try alt-f2  gtk-window-manger --replace
[20:51] <BuilderBob> c0p3rn1c: its the "native" compiz that came with the installation
[20:51] <c0p3rn1c> BuilderBob: sorry thats sudo apt-get install fusion-icon
[20:51] <sebsebseb> FroMaster: which VMware product?
[20:51] <^Uccio^> ciao a tutti
[20:51] <nickrud_> BuilderBob, gtk-window-manager , don't misspell it ;)
[20:52] <BuilderBob> nickrud_ and c0p3rn1c whos advice to follow? :)
[20:52] <ZykoticK9> FroMaster, I was speaking "Generally", you can certainly update your VM instead of doing a fresh install (I was just suggesting that fresh installs tend to have fewer problems)
[20:52] <c0p3rn1c> BuilderBob: nickrud
[20:52] <nickrud_> BuilderBob, fusion-icon simply enables/disables compiz
[20:52] <FroMaster> sebastien: ESX
[20:52] <sebsebseb> FroMaster: VMware server?
[20:53] <monostone> is it possible to run an dist-upgrade to a chroot environment? how are linux-headers handled, if the chroot filesystem doesn't have any kernel images in /boot
[20:53] <c0p3rn1c> BuilderBob: I only know fusion-icon works if you installed compiz-fusion
[20:53] <FroMaster> sebsebseb: I'm talking about using Ubuntu as a Guest OS on ESX server
[20:53] <Jahooty> does anyone know why open office will slice of the top of a line when viewing a .doc file?
[20:53] <sebsebseb> FroMaster: Virtualbox can use  VMDK files,  then you don't need to bugger around with some stupid VMware VMX file.  which might be useful information for something.
[20:53] <sebsebseb> Jahooty: well maybe
[20:54] <c0p3rn1c> BuilderBob: compiz-fusion never hurts though, it's pretty cool
[20:54] <ActionParsnip> !vmware
[20:54] <ZykoticK9> sebsebseb, FroMaster mentioned he was using ESX so suggesting Virtualbox is probably not an option
[20:54] <sebsebseb> Jahooty: I guess it depends for a start what is in the document
[20:54] <ActionParsnip> c0p3rn1c: try just pretty, not cool
[20:54] <ActionParsnip> c0p3rn1c: ;)
[20:54] <c0p3rn1c> haha
[20:54] <sebsebseb> ZykoticK9: yeah I was thinking that to, it dosan't realy do servers?  ,but they got another product for that I guess
[20:54] <Jahooty> what do you mean?
[20:54] <FroMaster> sebsebseb: I'm familiar with virtualbox...
[20:54] <nickrud_> BuilderBob, any luck with the --replace ?
[20:55] <c0p3rn1c> ActionParsnip: ok what do you got on your pimped-out ubuntu linux ? :D
[20:55] <sebsebseb> Jahooty: well  .doc is a closed format, only Microsoft  know how to make a program that suppourts it 100% properly
[20:55] <BuilderBob> nickrud_: got an error message... checked somethin and trying again...
[20:55] <c0p3rn1c> anything cool lol ?
[20:55] <sebsebseb> Jahooty: every other program  that suppourts it has to reverse enginner suppourt,  which is a very clever programming technique
[20:55] <saptap> heyyy anyone
[20:55] <saptap> i eed some help
[20:55] <ActionParsnip> c0p3rn1c: fluxbox + bora_blue theme
[20:55] <saptap> need
[20:56] <Jahooty> do you don't know why?
[20:56] <sebsebseb> Jahooty: as a result,  Open Office won't be able to open every .doc  the  same as Word
[20:56] <FroMaster> ZykoticK9: If I wanted to setup a Ubuntu Server VM with an older version and then upgrade to the latest to test the process would I go from 8.04 to 8.10 or would i get something older like a 7.x release then go to 8.10?
[20:56] <sebsebseb> Jahooty: try Abiword with your document, you may find it opens better there, also you can try KOffice
[20:56] <_VIM_> sebsebseb: 'suppourt'? is that UK English?
[20:56] <ActionParsnip> c0p3rn1c: http://tenr.de/styles/preview/bora_blue.png
[20:56] <sebsebseb> I am from UK :)
[20:56] <_VIM_> ah :)
[20:56] <sebsebseb> screw USA English
[20:56] <_VIM_> hey now!
[20:56] <_VIM_> ;P
[20:56] <ActionParsnip> _VIM_: uk english is the original
[20:56]  * nickrud_ kicks sebsebseb, harshly
[20:56] <sebsebseb> since they don't have there  own real language,  they  take UK English and do some changes to it
[20:56] <c0p3rn1c> ActionParsnip: nice :)
[20:57] <saptap> hey guys im having problems with my wired internet connection
[20:57] <jeffjeffdejeff> anyone able to test my remote desktop please?
[20:57]  * _VIM_ hides (think i started a war)
[20:57] <BuilderBob> nickrud_:  got 'Couldnt open location/place "file:///home/mamma/gtk-window-manager%20--replace"    (translated from swedish)
[20:57] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: indeed :) and so UK  English is the more correct
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> c0p3rn1c: i dont care for gloss, gets in the way of what i'm actually doing
[20:57] <hmw> Sepero: Does this tell you anything: http://pastebin.com/m386d7b3e
[20:57] <sebsebseb> _VIM_: lol not quite plus this is off topic hum
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: its just different, as long as the language is understood correctly it has server its purpose
[20:57] <nickrud_> BuilderBob, sorry, I went by memory:   gtk-window-decorator
[20:58] <hmw> ping
[20:58] <krabador> hi people, i recovered a reiserfs root from bad sector, i run reiserfsck /dev/sda1 --fix fixable and, after an error, with --rebuild-tree. This last was good {grub start, and not before} but i've many error of files missing. can i reinstall with synaptic/livecd some fondamental package to run my old installation, only for easy backup?
[20:58] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: i'm from uk too
[20:58] <BuilderBob> by the way... when the autofill starts filling in the dialg from "alt-f2" does it autofill like the tab or only autofill commands entered previously?
[20:58] <yoyit2> how do i install a .rpm file?
[20:58] <HARDhouse> brasirc.org
[20:58] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: where abouts?
[20:58] <_VIM_> yoyit2: .RPM's are not for Ubuntu
[20:58] <ZykoticK9> FroMaster, that's really up to you???  I take it this is for testing purposes?
[20:58] <sebsebseb> yoyit2: ok  this is a Debian based distro
[20:58] <nickrud_> yoyit2, it you not
[20:58] <hmw> Sepero: does this tell you anything: http://pastebin.com/m386d7b3e ?
[20:58] <sebsebseb> yoyit2:  so you can't just install .rpm ,but you can convert them to deb using Alien
[20:58] <nickrud_> *don't. yoyit2 what is it you want to install?
[20:58] <nickrud_> !alien | sebsebseb
[20:58] <BuilderBob> nickrud_:  hmm.... didnt seem to do anything...
[20:59] <FroMaster> ZykoticK9: Yeah, to get a feel of what it would be like to migrate all my VMs from Gentoo to Ubuntu
[20:59] <sebsebseb> nickrud: yes I just told him
[20:59] <Sepero> hmw: I'm looking at it
[20:59] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: leeds, west yorks, you?
[20:59] <yoyit2> nickrud: its a program for lightscribe
[20:59] <nickrud_> BuilderBob, not sure what it is then. I'd suggest asking in #compiz if someone is available
[20:59] <_VIM_> sebsebseb: I wouldn't recommend Alien, it's not supported as nickrud_pointed out
[20:59] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: South West
[20:59] <nickrud_> yoyit2, you sure it's not in the repos?
[20:59] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: like cornwall?
[20:59] <sebsebseb> nah
[20:59] <yoyit2> nickrud: the what?? im new to linux
[20:59] <ZykoticK9> FroMaster, as far as updating between Ubuntu versions someone else here is a better person to ask, I've always done clean reinstalls???
[21:00] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: let's go PM I guess if you want, since we are off topic
[21:00] <ZykoticK9> FroMaster, you must also want to look into Ubuntu JEOS if your running them in virtual machines
[21:00] <nickrud_> yoyit2, system->admin->synaptic package manager. As a general rule, you get stuff there rather than downloading and installing like windows
[21:01] <nickrud_> yoyit2, 95% of what you want can be found there
[21:01] <Sepero> hmw: The only thing I can recommend is trying different settings for SoundIn & SoundOut under Options -> Sound Devices
[21:02] <hmw> Sepero: I already tried to switch over to ALSA. Skype wont work with anything except some certain out of 6 options. I will continue googleing. Thanks!
[21:02] <UncleD-> I'm all updated to intrepid ibex 8.10 - should i do anything else?
[21:02] <nickrud_> yoyit2, apparently it's not in .... oh, he left
[21:02] <Sepero> hmw: You might want to try searching google for the error output you have. Like "skype ltdl-bind-now.c: Failed"
[21:02] <sebsebseb> UncleD-: well  loads of good programs to install, if you haven't already
[21:02] <nickrud_> yoyit2, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LightScribe
[21:02] <ZykoticK9> UncleD-, <joking> bring peace to the world
[21:03] <seeurchinz> hi
[21:03] <sebsebseb> hi
[21:03] <Sepero> hmw: It looks like it might be a limitation on your hardware.
[21:03] <yoyit2> nickrud: yea i did all that but it gives you a REALLY basic labeler. only basic text. but theres another one that i tried to get (suggested on the wevsitd) but its an rpm file
[21:03] <unko> i need some help here... i just download a screenlet called fusion switch it disables gnome effects when i click the off button and back on when i turn it on... so i turned it off to play a game (to get better performance) but than when i tried to switch it back on nothing happend.. i tryed to go to apperance and switch them on that way but now it's saying cannot enable desktop effects....
[21:03] <notmeeee> i booted from a livecd. is kubuntu included as a session option?
[21:03] <unko> ^^^^^^^^^^help
[21:03] <sebsebseb> seeurchinz: you want help with something?
[21:03] <sebsebseb> !ask
[21:03] <hmw> Sepero: It just started today, in the middle of a longer conversation. Fedora does not have this problem.
[21:04] <Scunizi> notmeeee: only if it was the kubuntu live cd
[21:04] <notmeeee> so would i have to install kde from scratch?
[21:04] <sebsebseb> notmeeee: you can put on Ubuntu and then put on Kubuntu as well
[21:04] <sebsebseb> notmeeee: and Xubuntu and  so on
[21:04] <Sepero> hmw: Ah, in that case, I would delete my skype settings folder under /home and put the settings back in.
[21:04] <notmeeee> sebsebseb: sorry you lost me
[21:04] <seeurchinz> if i want about 10 to 15 computers to connect to a single server computer to do something like a remote desktop, how might i go about that?
[21:05] <notmeeee> can i add kubuntu to my current  setup?
[21:05] <sebsebseb> notmeeee: you  can  have Ubuntu and Kubuntu and Xubuntu in the same  install
[21:05] <sebsebseb> notmeeee: yes you can add it
[21:05] <notmeeee> sebsebseb:  there is no install yet
[21:05] <seeurchinz> i want that remote desktop session to be a replacement for an os on those connecting computers if that makes sense
[21:05] <Scunizi> notmeeee: if you're running from the live cd and you would like to look at kubuntu you would have to download the live cd for kubuntu and boot from that.. if you have Ubuntu installed and want to try kubuntu then sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and then change sessions on boot
[21:05] <notmeeee> oh
[21:05] <sebsebseb> notmeeee: ok so your like brand new to Ubuntu?
[21:05] <Sepero> hmw: I mean, manually put the settings back in.
[21:05] <notmeeee> no. not really
[21:06] <nOStahl> heyey all why is wpa not an option for wifi connecting?
[21:06] <Sepero> hmw: ok, i must go. good luck
[21:06] <glitsj16> unko: did compiz work before using this fusion switch ? not familiar with it, but fusion-icon has similar features, is in the regular repo's and works fine here ...
[21:07] <hmw> Sepero: thx
[21:07] <ZykoticK9> seeurchinz, if you're remoting linux you might want to look into XDMCP???
[21:07] <npshmear> Hey, I am new to ubuntu, and I would like to know 2 things, the first is how to set up 5.1 sound, or at least access the sound settings, and the second is why wont EVE-ONLINE run on my linux partition, it keeps flashing in and out and then crashing.
[21:07] <Stephen|Edibles> Hi there. I'm trying to build pidgin 2.5.4 from source since it appears ubuntu doesnt have it yet in the repositry. I can get the source dled and unpacked okay, but when following the faq on the pidgin site it says to run "sudo apt-get build-dep gaim", but I get an unable to find source package error. Anyone like to help?
[21:07] <nOStahl> anyone know why wpa is not a connection option in network manager??
[21:07] <unko> glitsj16, yes it worked fine until i hit the switch off button now i can't re enable compiz/ gnaome effects
[21:07] <unko> gnaome*
[21:07] <unko> gnome**
[21:08] <Stephen|Edibles> npshmear, : Assumedly you're running this under wine?
[21:09] <glitsj16> unko: hard to tell what's going i guess, not a clue where to start debugging that sorry .. perhaps #compiz-fusion has more input on your trouble
[21:09] <unko> glitsj16,  ok
[21:10] <npshmear> stephen: i have no idea..
[21:10] <npshmear> stephen: I've just been trying out linux on a 10gb partition
[21:11] <Caesi> hi all, anyone have any idea why scrolling down in Firefox is lagging? thanks
[21:11] <glitsj16> npshmear: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4451132 is for hardy, but the setup for 5.1 sound is the same in intrepid (using pulseaudio on that forum page)
[21:11] <yoyit2> nickrud: you said somthing about using the rpm with synaptic.. what do i do??
[21:11] <thiebaude> Caesi: firefox does that alot
[21:11] <sebsebseb> Caesi: no, but  Firefox can go wrong on Ubuntu
[21:11] <npshmear> Thank you glit
[21:11] <Caesi> sebsebseb & thiebaude: it didn't use to do it
[21:11] <thiebaude> oh, ok
[21:12] <sebsebseb> yoyit2: no  Synaptic is a Graphical User Interface  for apt-get or aptitude   which  installs  Deb's
[21:12] <Stephen|Edibles> npshmear, : well, how did you install EVE on your ubuntu partition?
[21:12] <thiebaude> Caesi: did you install any new plugins for it?
[21:12] <sebsebseb> Caesi: quite a few other good browsers for Linux :)
[21:12] <hmw> Casei: FF isnt't the fastest in scrolling. Gnome is quite slow on most machines, where I saw it, especially, if complex things have to be scrolled (Like Compitz Configuration).
[21:12] <thiebaude> Caesi: i use opera
[21:12] <yoyit2> sebsebseb: so how do i install this rpm??????????
[21:12] <sebsebseb> hmw: you do reolize that  Firefox is not part of  real Gnome?
[21:12] <glitsj16> Caesi: could have several causes, a lot of webpages define background-attachments as fixed, if you have stylish for example, addind a oneliner to change those into scroll might be worthwhile
[21:12] <npshmear> stephen: downloaded the .deb file from the eve site, then ran it, it downloaded and unpackaged...  I didn't konw of any other way =p
[21:13] <_LionKing_> Is that someone can answer me
[21:13] <sebsebseb> npshmear: by default terminal is in home and so if your Deb is:   sudo dpkg -i  namegoeshere.deb
[21:13] <sebsebseb> and it installs
[21:13] <Stephen|Edibles> npshmear, : Ah, in that case eve has obviously released a linux version (I dont play the game myself.)
[21:14] <hmw> sebsebseb: It looks like FF would be using some "smooth scrolling" feature, because on my Fedora, FF is MUCH faster in scrolling. I didn't know, you mean, FF does it's scrolling without the system? Anyhow, even the system monitor's process list is SLOW.
[21:14] <wandering1> what is the best browser that will allow a Ubuntu user to view Flash content?  I'm having issues with FF.
[21:14] <sebsebseb> yoyit2: ok what program do you want to run?  what is the RPM for
[21:14] <npshmear> stephen: yes it's on the downloads page, i wanted to check it out, see how it ran, in the case that i permanently switch to linux from windows.
[21:14] <sebsebseb> hmw: Ubuntu has a Ubuntu version of FIrefox,  which coes not always work that well
[21:14] <Caesi> thiebaude: not explicitely :) I used Opera too, but I think it doesn't show the fonts well enough; sebsebseb: true :) but Firefox is okay - apart from this (!) glitsj16 hmm Stylish?
[21:14] <thiebaude> Caesi: the fonts in opera can be changed
[21:15] <Caesi> thiebaude: I know I've done that.. but the menu fonts and all.. I find them too blurry etc.
[21:15] <wandering1> what is the best browser that will allow a Ubuntu user to view Flash content?  I'm having issues with FF.
[21:15] <Stephen|Edibles> npshmear, : I'm not entirely sure what could be the problem then - assuming it only happens with eve and you've checked that your graphics card is okay with eve and up to date on drivers..
[21:15] <yoyit2> sebsebseb: its for a lightscirbe program (DONT refer me back to the install guid, everyone else has)
[21:15] <hmw> sebsebseb: After many resetups, also with different hardware combinations, I have an Ubuntu, that is at least *useable*, but I'd still wish for all those slowly scrolling lists (Processes, ccsm) to be 4 times faster.
[21:15] <thiebaude> Caesi: what i do is change the system font in Appereance Menu
[21:15] <sebsebseb> Caesi: other browsers for you to try:  Konqueror,  Galeon,  Epiphany (when installing sudo apt-get install epiphany-browser or you will end up with a game.  It  also might not add itself to menu so in terminal to open just do: epiphany-browser),  Seamonkey
[21:16] <seeurchinz> what i'm looking for is a thin client system, i think. a way to allow multiple computers to access the same, castrated graphical interface, sort of like your local library might have
[21:16] <npshmear> stephen: i think it may be linked to the sound.. my front right speaker is still making some crackly/static noise...
[21:16] <glitsj16> Caesi: stylish is an add-on to let you define your own layout on pages, if you nknow CSS you can overrule any element on the page you like, and there's a few scroll related add-ons as well, like smooth-scrolling at the addons.mozilla.org website
[21:16] <sebsebseb> yoyit2: remind me what lightscribe is
[21:16] <thiebaude> Caesi: i use comic sans as my fonts
[21:16] <gerson> Olá a todos!
[21:16] <default> often the /dev designations for some of my drives are changing from boot to boot... so my automounting in fstab isn't working..  what's going on?  how do I keep this from happening?
[21:17] <profanephobia> I have a Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop running ubuntu 8.10 and i cannot resume from suspend, it just sets at a black screen
[21:17] <DeadWalking> Hi, I'm on the Live CD and tried to install it on a USB but it just crashes every time.
[21:17] <hmw> sebsebseb: I noticed, that Fedora is much better in scrolling, it seems to be Gnome using some "smooth scrolling" for all list objects; I found out about that, because I could turn it off in Fedora, and all the sudden, all lists were much better in scrolling. Is there a similar option in Ubuntu?
[21:17] <sebsebseb> !install
[21:17] <Caesi> thiebaude: I've done so too, but they're still not as good as in FF, at least on mine(?); sebsebseb: ta, I might check them out now; glitsj16: ahh thanks, I'm not really familiar with CSS, but I might also try and get into that.. thanks all!
[21:17] <yoyit2> sebsebseb: its a lazer etching thing on your disc burner, to lable discs
[21:17] <sebsebseb> hmw: you mean   scrolling web pages?
[21:18] <npshmear> stephen: lawl fixed the sound =p
[21:18] <Stephen|Edibles> npshmear, : Well, I have no idea >_<. Sorry, and good luck!
[21:18] <sebsebseb> yoyit2: and  it only has  a RPM?????
[21:18] <npshmear> thanks
[21:18] <Stephen|Edibles> npshmear, : Oh, awesome. Does it fix the flickering? XD
[21:18] <sebsebseb> yoyit2: or .exe for Windows?
[21:18] <Caesi> thiebaude: ah, that might explain it :)
[21:18] <yoyit2> sebsebseb: yup
[21:18] <yoyit2> sebsebseb: only rpm
[21:18] <npshmear> Stephen, not sure about the flickering, give a sec
[21:18] <profanephobia> I have a Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop running ubuntu 8.10 and i cannot resume from suspend, it just sets at a black screen
[21:18] <sebsebseb> yoyit2: no  tar.gz or something like that?
[21:18] <thiebaude> Caesi: changing your system font will change that in opera
[21:19] <Stephen|Edibles> I think the most interesting thing about my laptop and ubuntu is that when running banshee my next/last song keys (vostro lappie) work for approximately 15 minutes when banshee starts, then stop working XD.
[21:19] <sebsebseb> yoyit2: well  Alien, but whatever that guy was saying about it not being that good
[21:19] <hmw> sebsebseb: no. Seems to be Gnome's list objects, that are slow, due to a seemingly applied smooth scroll effect. I would like to turn off ANY animated: scrolls of lists/window content, all the bars in FF that try to animatedly display info bars and any blending effects. Would make my system much more usable.
[21:19] <Stephen|Edibles> Hi there. I'm trying to build pidgin 2.5.4 from source since it appears ubuntu doesnt have it yet in the repositry. I can get the source dled and unpacked okay, but when following the faq on the pidgin site it says to run "sudo apt-get build-dep gaim", but I get an unable to find source package error. Anyone like to help?
[21:19] <sebsebseb> yoyit2: you could  virtualmachine  Wndows  or a RPM  Linux distro, and use your program
[21:19] <Caesi> thiebaude: like I said, I've done that.. but they're still not as clear as in Mozilla
[21:19] <yoyit2> sebsebseb: http://www.lacie.com/support/drivers/driver.htm?id=10094
[21:20] <yoyit2> sebsebseb: plain engrish??
[21:20] <hmw> sebsebseb: I read about a FF option to turn off smooth scrolling in about:config. Forgot where I read that :(
[21:20] <Caesi> thiebaude: and I have all this subpixel smoothing enabled and all
[21:20] <thiebaude> Caesi: if you try opera, smooth scrolling can be changed, in opera
[21:21]  * hmw installs Opera *g*
[21:21] <thiebaude> lol
[21:21] <default> Stephen|Edibles: check getdeb.net    there might be a deb there for that
[21:21] <acfrazier1> How can I set up a VNC server so I can connect to my computer from work?
[21:21] <sebsebseb> yoyit2: there are a few differnet package management systems  when it comes to LInux distros
[21:21] <glitsj16> Stephen|Edibles: not wanting to turn you away from building yourself, but on getdeb.net there's installable versions of pidgin 2.5.5 even
[21:21] <sebsebseb> acfrazier1: I can help with that
[21:21] <dr3w> how do you upadate g++ headers
[21:21] <thiebaude> Caesi: i just got rid of XP for good,lol
[21:21] <yoyit2> sebsebseb: can you give ma a walkthrough?
[21:21] <Caesi> thiebaude: jap, I have it activated.. you're right Opera is better, I also use it on Windows.. but I find the font really annoying somehow :)
[21:22] <Stephen|Edibles> default, glitsj16 : Yeah, a friend just pointed me to them. I will struggle on against this source for a bit, but I'll probably end up just grabbing the deb XD
[21:22] <acfrazier1> sebsebseb: Alright, that would be nice
[21:22] <thiebaude> Caesi: i agree
[21:22] <Caesi> thiebaude: I can't unfortunately :/
[21:22] <sebsebseb> acfrazier1: ok in PM
[21:22] <thiebaude> Caesi: i understand that
[21:22] <acfrazier1> sebsebseb: ok
[21:22] <thiebaude> some ppl need it for work or school, xp
[21:22] <Caesi> thiebaude: but thanks for your help though :)
[21:22] <default> often the /dev designations for some of my drives are changing from boot to boot... so my automounting in fstab isn't working..  what's going on?  how do I keep this from happening?
[21:23] <sebsebseb> acfrazier1: you can't do  RPM  in  Ubuntu, unless...  but all of the unless's are not good
[21:23] <thiebaude> Caesi: yw
[21:23] <sebsebseb> acfrazier1: except the virtual machine idea of a RPM based distro
[21:23] <acfrazier1> hm

[21:26] <TuxMan> hi
[21:26] <sebsebseb> yoyit2: private message
[21:26] <glitsj16> Stephen|Edibles: can't confirm, never built pidgin myself, but there's pidgin-dev you'll need, besides that i'd check the pidgin wiki for dependencies (or websearch)
[21:26] <sebsebseb> TuxMan: hi
[21:26] <TuxMan> any suggestion for a good CHM reader?

[21:31] <hmw> Intelli: there seem to be problems with NetworkManager. I installed wicd, wich works fine.
[21:31] <Jufis> when I run the sound test, what kind of sound should I be hearing?
[21:31] <Caesi> hmw: that's done it indeed :) thanks
[21:31] <Intelli> So just install wicd and uninstall NetworkManager?
[21:31] <npshmear> Hello again, I just downloaded my nvidia drivers as a .run file.  I don't know how to install it on linux, can someone tell me how to do it?  the file is located on my desktop.
[21:32] <hmw> Intelli: you should look for a web page with instructions. I only got a german wiki entry at hand now. It wasn't too hard, and yes, NM was removed, i think.
[21:32] <quibbler> Jufis: a high pitched beep
[21:32] <Intelli> I don't see wicd in Synaptic.
[21:32] <Jufis> quibbler, ok

[21:33] <Jufis> quibbler, how about sound capture+
[21:33] <hmw> Intelli: Yes, it has to be removed. THe packet, I used, did that automatically.
[21:33] <Intelli> How?
[21:34] <hmw> Intelli: Automatically. apt-get something and it just did. *G+

Is there a way to fix this...or is there a console command to put the resolution how I want?
[21:45] <coreyman> Cool_Nick are you using xorg?
[21:46] <Cool_Nick> xorg?
[21:46] <Cool_Nick> just console
[21:46] <Cool_Nick> if your thinking x11

[21:46] <coreyman> I was going to tell you to go into xorg.conf

[21:47] <dstar> is there a way to re-initialize the userlevel sound stuff? I keep losing my sound after a day or two. I don't find anything in the logs or in dmesg, so I doubt it's the kernel stuff; I'm assuming something in the userlevel sound stuff is getting confused somewhere....

[21:47] <Cool_Nick> coreyman, you extract it

[21:54] <szelek> Supersaiyan_IV: you're welcome
[21:55] <guntbert> !themes | coreyman
[21:55] <rrplay> coreyman, :: gnome loook

[21:55] <istvan_> how do i use wget to download files with an algorithm? ie. http://foo.com/#.jpg where # gets is every file between 1 and 300?
[21:55] <austin> anyone?
[21:55] <coreyman> Oh cool, you guys are the greatest.
[21:55] <sebsebseb> coreyman: hi
[21:56] <TknTknTkn> also how do I disable networkmanager?
[21:56] <coreyman> sebsebseb hi
[21:56] <sebsebseb> coreyman: if you search syanptic package manager for wallpaper you can get more
[21:56] <coreyman> oh ok
[21:56] <sebsebseb> coreyman: also  search for blubuntu and put on the gdm theme wallpaper and  splash screens
[21:56] <sebsebseb> coreyman: the theme itself  well  there's an issue,  so  bugger that, plus it's not that good
[21:56] <austin> does anyone know how to file transfer between two ubuntu machines?
[21:56] <frenchy> could someone tell me what this means when trying to rip a dvd in dvd::rip http://pastebin.com/m45a74a34
[21:56] <szelek> Does anyone know how acpi events works in ubuntu? I have thinkpad t40 and Archlinux running on it, and I can't manage gnome to show splash screen when changing volume or brightness
[21:56] <sebsebseb> coreyman: then  you need to change the log in screen to blubuntu
[21:56] <coreyman> sebsebseb i need something stable.
[21:56] <mcrawfor> anyone know of a link to instructions to make my system logins use a kerberos authority?
[21:57] <sebsebseb> coreyman: it is stable
[21:57] <Grim76__> austin: You can use sftp to transfer files over an ssh connection.
[21:57] <nivalis> !cookie | sebsebseb
[21:57] <mcrawfor> i'm googling but not finding anything as basic as I need
[21:57] <picca> acpid
[21:57] <guntbert> austin: over the network? you can use nfs, samba,
[21:57] <sebsebseb> nivalis: sarcasm?
[21:57] <nivalis> not at all
[21:57] <[Tequila]> just installed 8.10 server ... how do I mount my encrypted private dir
[21:57] <paulo39> hi guys, i was wondering which oficial repostory of ubuntu is apropriate to install Opera browser (because in my repositories there isn't any package with that name). I add the repository deb http://archive.canonical.com/ hardy partner which is given here -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser but there are no Opera package there :S
[21:57] <austin> gunthbert: i have samaba, but it won't let me trans files over the GUI
[21:57] <sebsebseb> coreyman: system administration log in screen
[21:57] <rrplay> TknTknTkn, :: look here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=527365
[21:58] <szelek> talking with a developer or smth like that would be nice ^^
[21:58] <quibbler> paulo39: download deb from http://www.opera.com/browser/download/
[21:59] <sebsebseb> paulo39:  or add the partners repo and put on  opera.   system administration sources list
[21:59] <guntbert> szelek: archlinux != ubuntu
[22:00] <paulo39> quibbler, i actually want to install by repository because then that makes the updates easier and automatic
[22:00] <quibbler> paulo39: OK
[22:00] <paulo39> sebsebseb, which partners repo? wherecan i find them?
[22:00] <szelek> guntbert: I know, but I want to know few things about how ubuntu developers get acpi to work on thinkpads
[22:00] <BlackDalek> Why do I always have to launch Googleearth from the command line with sudo? If I launch it from the application menu I just get a black screen...
[22:01] <sebsebseb> paulo39: pm me
[22:01] <guntbert> szelek: as this channel is for ubuntu support only you might get better answers in #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:02] <llllll> i can't seem to get my screen to clone, nvidia disabled my compiz now i can't use cube screen
[22:02] <_VIM_> !gksudo | BlackDalek
[22:02] <llllll> anyone have any ideas
[22:03] <dstar> Does anyone else have a problem with sound going away after a day or two?
[22:03] <szelek> guntbert: I'll try over there. thanks
[22:03] <guntbert> szelek: good luck :)
[22:03] <_VIM_> dstar: yep, just today in fact
[22:03] <profanephobia> i have a launcher that needs to run an application in terminal with sudo, how can i make it automagically input the password for me?
[22:04] <dstar> _VIM_: Is there a way to fix it short of rebooting?
[22:04] <joaopinto> profanephobia, set it's command to gksudo command ?
[22:04] <SuperDefenderX> Does anyone here have an LCD with speakers built into it? I'm having an issue with flash in UBUNTU where flash audios play through the USB montior connection and not through my onboard soundcard
[22:04] <profanephobia> joaopinto, its running in terminal though, no GUI
[22:05] <_VIM_> dstar: you could try sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart or stop or maybe sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[22:06] <BlackDalek> _VIM_, but... why do I have to run Googleearth as root to get it to work in the first place? It installs a menu item into the application menu - so logically I should be able to launch it from there too?
[22:06] <dstar> _VIM_: I know that _somethings_ still working, because I tried turning up the 'capture' devices under the theory that they were mislabeled and got hideous feedback....
[22:06] <joaopinto> profanephobia, use gksudo to launch a terminal executing the expected command...
[22:07] <guntbert> profanephobia: read man sudoers, there is the possibitlity to avoid needing a password, you can configure ti for just one app too
[22:07] <_VIM_> BlackDalek: could be a permissions issue
[22:07] <guntbert> *it
[22:07] <redzheb> anybody with help for skype. When I trying to call to somebody I receaved the messege problem with audio playback
[22:07] <joaopinto> profanephobia, example: gnome-terminal -x command
[22:07] <profanephobia> guntbert, thank you
[22:07] <sebsebseb> redzheb: ok   someone else had this issue
[22:07] <guntbert> profanephobia: the work will be yours :)
[22:07] <sebsebseb> redzheb: and someone helped us and we got his sound working
[22:07] <_VIM_> dstar: that's the only way i know without rebooting. Have you searched the forums? http://ubuntuforums.org
[22:08] <coreyman> So I went to Gnome Look, and downloaded spectrolet, drug it to the appearance window and i dont see it there.
[22:08] <coreyman> what did i do wrong
[22:08] <_VIM_> !sound | dstar (this might help)...
[22:08] <hmw> profanephobia: install pam_usb and use a usb thumbdrive as a key card. No more password typing!
[22:08] <redzheb> yes already we have sound
[22:08] <Blast> how do i set up a wireless Internet connection?
[22:08] <SuperDefenderX> redzheb: You might have to specify the audio device in the Skype options menu.
[22:08] <quibbler> _VIM_: dstar : try this  sudo killall pulseaudio; sleep 5; sudo alsa force-reload
[22:08] <sebsebseb> !wireless
[22:09] <glitsj16> SuperDefenderX: if you're using pulseaudio you could try to move the stream via the pavucontrol GUI (clicking the arrow next to the playing stream). It has a 'memory' feature, so if you are able to move it to your onboard sound card that should be used for that app each time
[22:09] <profanephobia> joaopinto, what im trying to do is make a launcher that runs "sudo hibernate" in a terminal but i need to to run without asking for my password
[22:09] <redzheb> SuperDefenderX: I use it but it not working
[22:10] <mushroomblue> anyone know if OpenChrome9 is supported in Intrepid?
[22:10] <Chousuke> profanephobia: you can edit sudoers file and add a NOPASSWD exception for that command
[22:10] <BlackDalek> How do I fix permissions for Googleearth so I don't have to run it as root?
[22:10] <_VIM_> quibbler: nothing
[22:10] <[Tequila]> I just installed ubuntu 8.10 server and created a encrypted private dir. How to I mount/unlock it
[22:11] <quibbler> ;-(
[22:11] <Chousuke> profanephobia: EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: always use "sudo visudo" to edit the sudoers file
[22:11] <SuperDefenderX> glistsj16: I don't know what you mean.
[22:11] <redzheb> SuperDefenderX: I have 3 options only to choice: default; hdmi; headphone. I tried all of them but not working
[22:11] <joaopinto> profanephobia, ah, for that you will need sudoers
[22:11] <Chousuke> profanephobia: if you do not, you might lock yourself out of root
[22:11] <glitsj16> SuperDefenderX: do you use pulseaudio ?
[22:11] <SuperDefenderX> glitsj16: Dunno. I thought Pulse Audio was the default for Ibex?
[22:12] <O__o> hi i keep getting "Warning: the RSA host key for 'p3' differs from the key for the IP address '192.168.1.100'" when i ssh into my server, how to remove that warning?
[22:12] <profanephobia> Chousuke, so sudo visudo nano /etc/sudoers ?
[22:12] <Chousuke> profanephobia: no
[22:12] <Chousuke> profanephobia: EDITOR=nano sudo visudo
[22:12] <kansan___> what happens when kill -9 doesnt kill a process?  anything else to do?
[22:12] <SuperDefenderX> glitsj16: It's a fresh install, about 10 minutes ago. :)
[22:12] <redzheb> SuperDefenderX: I have 3 options only to choice: default; hdmi; headphone. I tried all of them but not working
[22:12] <aSt3raL> how can i set up ajax for apache2?
[22:12] <Favorit> kansan___: it's probably a child process. kill its parent
[22:12] <_VIM_> offtopic aSt3raL, ask in #apache
[22:12] <aSt3raL> thanks
[22:12] <mushroomblue> anyone know if OpenChrome9 is supported in Intrepid?
[22:12] <_VIM_> :)
[22:13] <glitsj16> SuperDefenderX: well you can open a process monitor to check if you have pulseaudio running, if so you can use it .. check with gnome-system-monitor for instance if you have it running
[22:13] <Chousuke> profanephobia: then ADD a line: yourusername ALL = NOPASSWD: /full/path/to/the/hibernatecommand
[22:13] <mushroomblue> I mean, worst-case scenario, I wait until tomorrow when jaunty is downloaded
[22:13] <mushroomblue> but it'd sorta be nice to know, and there's no documentation on it.
[22:13] <[Tequila]> I just installed ubuntu 8.10 server and created a encrypted private dir. How to I mount/unlock it
[22:13] <profanephobia> Chousuke, ok thanks
[22:13] <SuperDefenderX> redzheb: One moment.
[22:13] <kansan___> how do i kill a gnome-applet application that i dont want to see any more
[22:14] <Chousuke> profanephobia: make sure not to touch the other lines :)
[22:14] <turtle_> whateva steva meva brevalampost
[22:14] <turtle_> thats the new code
[22:14] <glitsj16> kansan___: right-click the applet ijn question, there should be a remove option or similar
[22:14] <turtle_> its written in C++ A-
[22:15] <ikonia> turtle_: what are you talking about ?
[22:15] <profanephobia> Chousuke, quick newb question, writeout means save right?
[22:15] <turtle_> kick that jam outta here,   He's outta here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[22:15] <Chousuke> profanephobia: yes
[22:15] <ikonia> turtle_: what ?
[22:15] <profanephobia> Chousuke, ok thanks again
[22:15] <turtle_> ikonia,  don't question the questionnaire
[22:15] <Chousuke> profanephobia: visudo will complain if the sudoers format is wrong
[22:16] <Chousuke> profanephobia: that's why it's important to use visudo
[22:16] <badp> Hello. How can I set up a personal repository? I need to install on Intrepid a number of packages from Jaunty (namely, Amarok 2 and the 19 or so dependencies I don't have).
[22:16] <Chousuke> profanephobia: you can use a normal editor too, if you want, but that's dangerous :)
[22:16] <[Tequila]> I just installed ubuntu 8.10 server and created a encrypted private dir. How to I mount/unlock it
[22:16] <ikonia> badp: you don't install jaunty packages on 8.10
[22:16] <_dfox> badp you could go to the amarok neon page, and install the amarok-nightly package
[22:16] <turtle_> why?
[22:17]  * hipzen laughs as he sees O__o's quitmsg
[22:17] <ikonia> turtle_: this is a support channel only please - ubuntu support only
[22:17] <turtle_> oh ok
[22:17] <turtle_> im sorry
[22:17] <badp> _dfox, thanks.
[22:17] <turtle_> i thought i was at home for a second
[22:18] <Chousuke> a nick-based ban is not very effective :)
[22:18] <SuperDefenderX> glitsj16: Thanks. I installed "pavucontrol" and fixed everything.
[22:18] <badp> Depends on the lengths one's willing to go ;)
[22:18] <macrocosm> Has anyone here virtualized ubuntu 8.10 server with vmware server from a windoze main host os?  I cant seem to make any dns settings work in my ubuntu server.  I can attatch static ip's through my physical router but any dns I try to apply from within my ubuntu guest dont work.
[22:19] <glitsj16> SuperDefenderX: cool :)
[22:19] <profanephobia> Chousuke, now i just need to find where hibernate is installed lol
[22:19] <[Tequila]> I just installed ubuntu 8.10 server and created a encrypted private dir. How to I mount/unlock it
[22:19] <Ronald> Can rsync compare with some sort of hash?
[22:19] <SuperDefenderX> redzheb: You still here?
[22:20] <Chousuke> profanephobia: which hibernate
[22:20] <Chousuke> ;)
[22:20] <Chousuke> (I mean, that is a command)
[22:20] <Ronald> I just checked out a branch and I'd like to push it to my server but rsync wants to send everything because the files are new
[22:20] <profanephobia> Chousuke, from the repos i did sudo apt-get install hibernate
[22:20] <Chousuke> whereis hibernate apparently works too
[22:20] <redzheb> SuperDefenDerX: YES i 'M HERE
[22:20] <Chousuke> profanephobia: I mean, that command will tell you the path where the executable is
[22:21] <axisys> i am having md issue .. exactly like this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1034772
[22:21] <axisys> dont see a fix for this
[22:21] <profanephobia> Chousuke, its just sudo hibernate
[22:21] <redzheb> SuperDefenDerX: YES i 'M HERE
[22:21] <Chousuke> profanephobia: for the sudoers file you need the path to the hibernate executable
[22:22] <profanephobia> Chousuke, i know i just havent found it yet, i thought it would have been in /usr/bin but alas, its not
[22:22] <SuperDefenderX> redheb: Did you try  "System>> Preferences>> Sound" set everything to "autodetect" and "sound capture" to Pulse.
[22:22] <Chousuke> profanephobia: so if "which hibernate" outputs /usr/bin/hibernate, you put "username ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/hibernate" in your sudoers file
[22:22] <doc``> ok i hit some button that zoomed in in ubuntu, how do i zoom out?
[22:22] <Chousuke> profanephobia: so what does it say when you do "which hibernate"?
[22:23] <profanephobia> Chousuke, ah brilliant i didnt even know about that cmd its in /usr/sbin thanks for all your help
[22:23] <Chousuke> profanephobia: it's a handy command :)
[22:24] <Chousuke> profanephobia: if all goes well you should be able to run "sudo hibernate" without being asked for a password
[22:24] <macrocosm> Whats the best way to diagnose dns issues? Ubuntu server 8.10
[22:24] <Chousuke> because sudo is awesome like that.
[22:25] <Chousuke> many people seem to not appreciate its awesomeness though :/
[22:25] <Chousuke> instead resorting to old-fashioned "root logins"
[22:25] <Chousuke> but enough of that. problem solved, all is fine.
[22:25] <poseidon> how do I get a program to run on startup?
[22:26] <jae-na> hi there. i just installed the newest ubuntu x86_64 on my vaio. my dvd drive is useless unless i boot with a cd or dvd in the drive -- that's the only way i can mount a dvd or a cd. if i boot without media in the drive, and put a disk in after ubuntu has booted, nothing happens. i ran lsscsi and did not see my dvd drive listed. any pointers?
[22:28] <mushroomblue> so, anyone know if Via Chrome 9 HC3 is supported in intrepid? I'm not finding any resources on it.
[22:28] <jae-na> and i know that my dvd drive works because i used it to install ubuntu
[22:28] <macrocosm> Whats the best way to diagnose dns issues on Ubuntu server 8.10?  I think its cause its virtualized -vmware -and thats why its not working.  I have followed all instructions to the t for setting up dns bits.
[22:29] <Hasbro> Hey
[22:29] <Hasbro> Using grep how can I  search just for processes with the name ftp?
[22:30] <Hasbro> like, grep ps aux || ftp
[22:30] <Hasbro> I'm not sure the command
[22:30] <redzheb> SuperDefenDerX: YES i 'M HERE
[22:30] <redzheb> SuperDefenDerX: YES i 'M HERE
[22:30] <mikewu> Hasbro: ps aux | grep ftp
[22:30] <Hasbro> ah
[22:30] <Hasbro> had it backwards, lol
[22:30] <hipzen> goodnight all
[22:30] <Hasbro> May god bless your soul :)
[22:31] <Scunizi> I have a Citrix .ica file that works if I right click and say "open with Fire Fox".  I'm trying to create a shortcut so it works the same.  What do I use on the command line to "open the ics file" with Firefox? Simply putting "Firefox <filename.ics> doesn't work.
[22:31] <kesi> Hi all, I'm trying to follow some directions which involve editing the sudoers file.  However, when I type sudo visudo it doesn't take me into a vi type interface, it looks just like pico..
[22:32] <mikewu> kesi: set your EDITOR variable to vi "export EDITOR=vi"
[22:32] <glitsj16> Scunizi: the actual command to start Firefox is firefox, no capital F
[22:32] <Scunizi> glitsj16: ok.. any idea on the rest?
[22:32] <filthpig> Hi, how can I find out which gfx driver I am currently using? I know it's an open source AMD/ATI driver. It's an old R200-card, does those use the ati or radeonhd drivers?
[22:33] <crdlb> filthpig: it uses the radeon (aka ati) driver
[22:33] <crdlb> since that's the only driver which will ever support it
[22:33] <glitsj16> Scunizi: wht does 'firefox /path/to/your/file do ?
[22:33] <crdlb> other than vesa
[22:33] <kesi> mikewu, I typee "export EDITOR=vi" into the terminal, was that what you meant?  didn't seem to do anything.
[22:33] <mikewu> kesi: it just sets a variable, try running your previous command, it hopefully should open with vi now
[22:34] <kesi> mikewu, it doesn't.
[22:34] <filthpig> crdlb: okay thanks. How can I get that info out of my system though? It'd be nice to know on a general basis
[22:34] <kesi> mikewu, still GNU nano
[22:34] <crdlb> filthpig: look at your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[22:34] <Seveas> kesi, sudo EDITOR=vi visudo
[22:34] <Scunizi> glitsj16: nevermind.. I had the ics file in ~ and in the shortcut I was representing /home/<username> as ~ and it didn't like it.. after spelling it out it worked fine. :/
[22:35] <Seveas> kesi, alternatively, set the global default editor with sudo update-alternatives --config editor
[22:35] <glitsj16> Scunizi: one less thing, k :)
[22:35] <kesi> Seveas, I get sudo:export: command not found
[22:35] <Seveas> kesi, please read what I typed carefully. You'll see I didn't type export :)
[22:35] <Scunizi> glitsj16: yep.. just more typing.. go figure nautilus wouldn't understand ~ for current /home
[22:35] <filthpig> crdlb: okay. thought there was some command to pop it up, it'd be nice to have a way to list all hardware drivers in use linked up to what hardware they were running on
[22:36] <filthpig> oh well, I gotta scoot, kthxbye :)
[22:36] <kesi> Seveas, thanks!
[22:36] <glitsj16> Scunizi: i run xfce, never needed nautilus
[22:36] <Scunizi> :)
[22:39] <nivalis> glitsj16, one thing i miss in thunar is you have to play around a bit to mount remote disks
[22:40] <Blast> okay i still don't understand this wireless internet
[22:40] <Blast> !info wireless internet
[22:40] <mbreum> Any ALSA-experts here?
[22:40] <Blast> !info sudo
[22:41] <nickrud_> this has to be the quietest it's been in months
[22:41] <eseven73> yea i was just bout to say that too
[22:42] <eseven73> ubuntu is getting too good, no one needs help :)
[22:42] <hoonteke> Is there a reason why, for the daily development builds, canonical/ubuntu doesn't offer a bittorrent option?
[22:42] <david_> Hi, can someone help me troubleshoot a network problem please: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/336674
[22:42] <nickrud_> except sound. sound will be with us forever i think
[22:43] <Jufis> yea I always mess up my sounds
[22:43] <eseven73> sound and nvidia/ati issues
[22:43] <dstar> _VIM_: /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart doesn't work (I've been screwing around with it all this time). I ended up having to just run 'pulseaudio -D' in a terminal window... but hey, it worked.
[22:43] <oCean_> david_: for Jaunty issues, join #ubuntu+1
[22:44] <eseven73> dstar: ok well glad you got it working (im VIM) :)
[22:44] <david_> oCean_: Thanks.
[22:44] <hmw> david_ - I can't help you on resolving this issue, but wicd might work better than network manager.
[22:44] <hoonteke> dstar: yeah, I note that pulseaudio will randomly crash.  Often after 2nd or 3rd wake up from computer suspension
[22:44] <hoonteke> my fix/workaround is to make sure it's dead ( killall pulseaudio )
[22:45] <hoonteke> and then just have a terminal window open to hit ctrl+c and up+enter to run pulseaudio
[22:45] <hoonteke> not exactly user friendly, but it worksforme ...
[22:45] <eseven73> my fix is to uninstall pulseaudio
[22:45] <eseven73> easier
[22:45] <david_> hmw: Will take a look, thanks.
[22:45] <Jufis> but don't you get errors when you start ubuntu if you do that eseven73 ?
[22:46] <eseven73> nope
[22:46] <hoonteke> nah, I like pulseaudio.  With padevchooser, it's the only soundsystem that lets me switch between usb headphones and the normal output on-the-fly
[22:46] <Blast> why is the sound so
[22:46] <Blast> low
[22:46] <Blast> i have it up all the way and its still to quiet
[22:47] <macrocosm> @hmw is wicd a server networking tool? Im using ununtu server 8.10 with no gui ... I cant seem to make my dns work right on a vertualized ubuntu server
[22:47] <mbreum> I got speaker-test working with HDMI output like this 'speaker-test -d plughw:1,3' - and entering plughw:1,3 for mythtv audio device makes myth work fine with sound. But how do I set plughw:1,3 as the default device, so youtube on firefox also works with audio thru HDMI?
[22:47] <evantandersen> i have this file in my /etc/pm/sleep.d/ directory, and it does not work. When I execute the file manually, however, it does. I have added modprobe to my sudoers file, with my admin name. Here is the script file: http://paste.ubuntu.com/126044/
[22:47] <hoonteke> Blast: another annoyance wtih Ubuntu, probably.  There are many layers of sound.  I often find that the double-clicking on the gnome volume control lets me set the device level
[22:47] <GeorgeAScott> after upgrading to 8.10, my aiptek tablet doesn't work.  the xorg.conf lines are all commented out, saying that hal now covers this.  i found a howto on creating an fdi file in the /etc/hal/devices but no luck.  can i uncomment xorg.conf and continue using that setup?
[22:47] <hmw> macrocosm: I can't tell really, it simply replaced my Network Manager and I am using it for wifi with my notebook.
[22:48] <hoonteke> Blast: while using padevchooser->volume control I can set the channel level
[22:48] <ZykoticK9> macrocosm, you have checked that your DNS server is listed in /etc/resolve.conf???
[22:48] <aplus> I have a Dell laptop and it will not start up after it froze. The power source and battery work. When i try to start it up, the lights come on for a few seconds then turn back off again. Any thoughts?
[22:48] <hoonteke> annoying that there's not a 100% global option ...
[22:48] <hoonteke> aplus: did you just install new ram?
[22:48] <aplus> no i did not
[22:48] <Blast> hoonteke: how do i find gnome volume control
[22:48] <aplus> this just happened a few minutes ago
[22:48] <dstar> hoonteke: hmm... okay, I have my command-line beeps back, but not my flash sound in FF....
[22:48] <macrocosm> @hmw thanks I will check it out .. though I think its prolly not my issue .. Its something to do with ubuntu server being vertualized
[22:48] <hmw> macrosm: you can simply replace /etc/resolv.conf with a file containing a single line: nameserver IP-ADDRESS
[22:48] <mbreum> asoundconf doesn't include plughw devices as options?
[22:48] <dstar> hoonteke: Where do I get padevchooser?
[22:49] <myeggo> hello, what is the best torrent client for gnome?
[22:49] <hoonteke> Blast: err, I have it as a gnome-applet, added to my taskbar thingy upt op
[22:49] <aplus> Do you think the RAM is the reason it will not start up? Or were you thinking that maybe i installed new RAM recently and that was the problem?
[22:49] <myeggo> well, your opinion
[22:49] <hoonteke> dstar: apt-cache search padev | grep padev
[22:49] <mbreum> Blast: Right click on the task bar and 'add panel...' then select volume thingy and add it..
[22:49] <dstar> hoonteke: danke
[22:49] <hoonteke> then install the appropriate package
[22:49] <macrocosm> @hmw I have that there
[22:49] <hoonteke> aplus: I don't know.  I just had it happen to my girlfriends computer when we upgraded her to 4gigs
[22:50] <macrocosm> my ip works
[22:50] <hmw> macrosm: can you ping your DNS server?
[22:50] <hoonteke> that's when we actually checked that her mobo could support: it couldn't
[22:50] <aplus> well this laptop has not been modified for a year since i wiped xp and installed vista
[22:50] <hmw> macrosm: can you ping anything outside?
[22:50] <hoonteke> dstar: you said it beeps
[22:50] <rapha> What is the keyboard shortcut for previous/next tab in GEdit?
[22:50] <hoonteke> or sorry ,not dstart ... aplus
[22:50] <aplus> So outside of the power cord and the battery what could be the problem
[22:50] <macrocosm> yeah
[22:50] <hoonteke> aplus: does it beep before turning off?
[22:50] <macrocosm> yeah I have internet connectivity
[22:50] <aplus> negative
[22:51] <eTranquility> Hi, I'm running 8.10. Synaptic can't seem to connect to the internet, so I can't get updates or install through it. It shows download speed at unknown. It was recently working fine but I'm not sure what triggered this. Possibly related is Gnome Do's inability to post tweets, which also previously worked. I can use Firefox and Pidgin with no problems. How do I rectify the situation?
[22:51] <hoonteke> aplus: alright, I don't know then without being there first hand.  Have you tried booting off of a CD?
[22:51] <hoonteke> does it check the cd drives?
[22:51] <corey> I am looking for a high performance window manager
[22:51] <aplus> hoonteke: when we shut the laptop off it was because it froze, then there was a blinking cursor at the upper left corner of the screen
[22:51] <nivalis> corey, stacking, composite or tiling?
[22:51] <Blast> okay someone say my nick again
[22:52] <Blast> i want to see if its louder
[22:52] <hoonteke> Blast:
[22:52] <aplus> We cannot even get to a screen to use a bootup disk
[22:52] <hmw> macrosm: if youre uncertain about the currently used DNS server to function, try putting another (public) server into resolv.conf
[22:52] <corey> I am looking for a window manager that will give me better battery life
[22:52] <Blast> now it is completely quiet
[22:52] <hoonteke> aplus: hmm, without doing more diagnostics, it sounds like a hardware error then.  Can you even get to the bios screen?
[22:52] <aplus> hoonteke: the laptop doesn't even light up the screen whatsoever, only the capslock, power, and number lock icons. And only briefly
[22:52] <aplus> Then shuts off
[22:52] <hoonteke> Blast: are you sure it isn't a n instante messaging client issue?
[22:52] <hmw> corey: mayin power consumer regarding GPU is any 3D stuff. Turning off compiz should save a significant amount of battery.
[22:53] <aplus> Could it be the main board, hoonteke?
[22:53] <aplus> The computer  does stay on 24/7
[22:53] <mifritscher> hi
[22:53] <hoonteke> aplus: yeah, I don't know.  Laptops are harder to diagnose.  My first guess is yes, it's a mobo issue
[22:53] <ZykoticK9> corey, fluxbox / openbox are minimal style WMs with lots of customization as well
[22:53] <aplus> hmm, well ty for the help
[22:53] <nivalis> corey, dwm is less than 2000 lines of code :)
[22:53] <macrocosm> which ip should I use ... my gateway or the static I applied to the mac address
[22:53] <nickrud_> corey, http://www.suckless.org/dwm/ litest one out there I think, but you're barking up the wrong tree. turn off wireless and backlighting and disks
[22:53] <Blast> okay now its really loud
[22:53] <Blast> ty
[22:53] <lordgino> net
[22:53] <hoonteke> Blast: so it was the instant messenging client?
[22:54] <Blast> no
[22:54] <mifritscher> why are kde-apps so slow on drawing (e.g. krusador, it doesn't even scrol in realtime)? Its a c2d with 1,6 ghz and a x3100 gpu
[22:54] <Blast> now its the loudest its ever been
[22:54] <rapha> What is the keyboard shortcut for previous/next tab in GEdit?
[22:54] <hoonteke> aplus: for future reference, if it's a non-booting mobo, often mobo's will beep at you.  It's annoying, but if you have the specs for the mobo, or can look them up, it will tell you what the issue is.
[22:54] <Blast> i think it will blow out my speekers
[22:54] <macrocosm> @hmw ... I really appreciate your help ... I will do some more research on resolv.conf
[22:54] <hoonteke> rapha: Ctrl+Pgdn?
[22:54] <Blast> now lol
[22:54] <aplus> I do not at the moment or i'd try that for sure
[22:54] <Blast> ty
[22:55] <rapha> hoonteke: I wish :-(
[22:55] <rapha> The problem with GEdit is that is doesn't follow any keyboard shortcut conventions
[22:55] <hmw> rapha: ALT+1, ALT+2, ...
[22:55] <hoonteke> rapha: , looks like ctrl+alt+pgup to me
[22:55] <hoonteke> and pgdn
[22:55] <hoonteke> or, directly, with hmw's solution.
[22:55] <rapha> hoonteke: hmw: Thanks a million!
[22:55] <aplus> I have a tech question hoonteke
[22:55] <aplus> while i'm here
[22:55] <hoonteke> fire away
[22:56] <aplus> I can upload my spec to you
[22:56] <aplus> okay
[22:56] <aplus> I have a great desktop and when i play online games, the fps will lower despite my nice graphics card, 15meg interent (comcast) and 4gigs of RAM
[22:56] <hmw> hoonteke rapha - the ctrl-PgUp might work, but compiz might catch the shortcuts for something else. Alt+Number still works here.
[22:56] <Blast> i am installing gnome is that okay
[22:56] <Jufis> Uh oh... I managed to mess up with my sounds again. Seems like I'll never get the settings right without help. I have this laptop: http://www.fujitsu-siemens.com/home/products/notebooks/amilo_pa_2548.html. Anyone here knows what settings I should set in System->Preferences->Sound?
[22:56] <aplus> It will go from 40+fps to about 4 and the ground becomes see through
[22:56] <hoonteke> Blast: shouldn't be a problem.  gnome and kde play well with each other
[22:57] <Blast> i'm installing it from terminal
[22:57] <aplus> I can query you with my computer specs Hoonteke
[22:57] <Blast> it shouldn't mess up my Ubuntu
[22:57] <hoonteke> aplus: no, 4 gigs is enough, I assume you've got a decent cpu, gfx card, and hdd too?
[22:57] <hoonteke> Blast: nope.
[22:57] <aplus> yes
[22:57] <aplus> nvidia ge force 7500 and dual core
[22:57] <hoonteke> aplus: then it sounds like either a software issue, or a driver issue.
[22:58] <aplus> hmm i could upgrade my driver
[22:58] <Blast> dose kde come with Ubuntu?
[22:58] <giovani> Blast: with kubuntu it does
[22:58] <hoonteke> graphics card drivers are not linux's strongsuit, currently, thanks to only 2 for reals graphics cards companies, and closed specs for the graphics cards they make
[22:58] <hoonteke> Blast: no,  but Kubuntu does
[22:59] <giovani> redundant answers hooray!
[22:59] <hoonteke> Kubuntu = Linux + KDE
[22:59] <hoonteke> Ubuntu = Linux + Gnome
[22:59] <aplus> Hoonteke do you think it may be the comcast internet. Also the fans come on ALOT while in higher populated areas
[22:59] <hoonteke> roughly
[22:59] <aplus> I'm wondering if my graphics card is about to go out
[22:59] <Blast> can i install kubuntu?
[22:59] <hoonteke> Blast: yep: sudo apt-get install kubuntu
[22:59] <Blast> okay
[22:59] <hoonteke> then wait while it downloads a ton
[22:59] <giovani> Blast: yes, you can install it directly from a cd, from www.kubuntu.org
[22:59] <Flannel> Blast, hoonteke: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[22:59] <giovani> or you can apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[22:59] <hoonteke> Flannel: is on the mark
[23:00] <Blast> yeah it is taking forever for gnome to download
[23:00] <Jufis> Any sound experts here?
[23:00] <hoonteke> the difference between the methods is that unless you use separate partitions for your /home directory, you'll lose your work without a backup, Blast.
[23:00] <austin> Hey guys, i have a comptuer hooked onto a network, and some files on the machine..ultimatly i would like to put them online
[23:00] <hoonteke> aplus: dunno
[23:00] <Guest55622> and how to switch from gnome to kde?
[23:00] <giovani> sixhat: we just covered that
[23:00] <giovani> sixkiller: *
[23:00] <giovani> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[23:00] <sixkiller> just joined
[23:01] <hoonteke> aplus: the lots of extra fan noise roughly means "lots of extra heat" roughly means lots of extra computation.
[23:01] <giovani> will add kde to your ubuntu install
[23:01] <Blast> can i install  kubuntu on a different terminal?
[23:01] <giovani> Blast: kde isn't smaller than gnome -- so it won't be faster
[23:01] <jimmyb2187> net
[23:01] <Flannel> Blast: No, you can only have one package manager open at a time.
[23:01] <giovani> Blast: terminal? you can run two x sessions if you like
[23:01] <giovani> Flannel: package manager? wtf are you talking about?
[23:01] <hoonteke> aplus: there's no telling if the computation is just a lot of todo, a pisspoor algorithm internal to the game, or a bug in the driver.
[23:02] <Flannel> giovani: He was asking if he could open a second terminal, and install kubuntu at the same time he's installing ubuntu.
[23:02] <oCean_> giovani: mind the language
[23:02] <austin> anyone?
[23:02] <giovani> oCean_: it's an acronym, no need to get anxious
[23:02] <Flannel> avis: How would you like to put them online?
[23:02] <Flannel> giovani: It still counts.  Obfuscated swearing still is.
[23:02] <oCean_> giovani: we know what it means. Don't do it here
[23:02] <austin> does anyone know how to set up a server?
[23:02] <giovani> my goodness
[23:02] <hoonteke> giovani: Flannel means that apt-get acquires a lock.  Thus, only one instance can be run at the same time.  If it's through synaptic, or multiple shells, it doesn't matter.
[23:02] <giovani> everyone needs to chill out
[23:02] <Flannel> austin: What type of server?
[23:03] <ZykoticK9> austin, you need to ask a more specific question i think.  to put files online is vague - you could install apache or an ftp server?
[23:03] <austin> Flannel:  A web server
[23:03] <giovani> hoonteke: yeah, we covered that, I misunderstood what Blast wanted to know
[23:03] <Flannel> !lamp | austin
[23:03] <Blast> how do i set up gnome to my desktop
[23:03] <hoonteke> giovani: oh sorry, must've lost it
[23:03] <Flannel> austin: That wiki page will walk you through it (if you just want to serve files/pages, you just need the apache stuff, not anything else)
[23:03] <Blast> because its installing it but i don't know where it is at
[23:03] <sixkiller> how to disable quit massages,.example when somebody on this channel quits or joins
[23:03] <austin> I'm new to linux still, i have server ed. and apache, and the fiels in a folder in my server
[23:04] <Flannel> Blast: It should run automatically once its finished.
[23:04] <Blast> okay
[23:04] <giovani> Blast: gnome will be set up for you in a default install it doesn't need to be set up manually, it'll boot right into it when you boot into linux
[23:04] <hoonteke> sixkiller: what's your instantmessenging client?  If it's pidgin, it's a plugin.
[23:04] <ZykoticK9> sixkiller, that's an irc client specific question
[23:04] <Jufis> Could somebody here help me with my sound issues?
[23:04] <Blast> so i should restart ubuntu when its done installing?
[23:04] <mbreum> Jufis: Probably not, but what are you after?
[23:04] <giovani> Blast: it will prompt you to
[23:04] <sixkiller> ZykoticK9: i know,.but do you know?
[23:05] <Blast> okay its done but it hasnt
[23:05] <ZykoticK9> sixkiller, are you using xchat?
[23:05] <Blast> started yet
[23:05] <austin> I realy don't understand this wiki..
[23:05] <giovani> it's done but it hasn't started yet?
[23:05] <Blast> okay what do i type to install kubuntu?
[23:05] <austin> I don't know where to start off
[23:05] <giovani> Blast: wait until the system is fully installed
[23:05] <Blast> it is
[23:05] <giovani> Blast: do you want Gnome, KDE, or both?
[23:05] <Blast> gnome is done
[23:05] <Flannel> austin: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#Installing%20Apache%202
[23:05] <oCean_> austin: you say you have apache installed? If it is running (which after install most likely is, and you can see through command: "/etc/init.d/apache2 status") than you should be able to connect in browser: http://localhost
[23:05] <hoonteke> Blast: Generally, the only reason you'll need to restart your linux based computer is when you need to upgrade the core kernel.
[23:05] <Jufis> mbreum, I don't know what settings I should set in System-Preferences-Sound. I get my sounds to work in one application but then they do not work in another. And now I can't get them to work in firefox at all.
[23:06] <giovani> hoonteke: he's in the live installer, I believe
[23:06] <hoonteke> Blast: and that's very rare.
[23:06] <hoonteke> giovani: oh, my bad
[23:06] <giovani> hoonteke: so he'll need to reboot to get out of that
[23:06] <hoonteke> I'll stop following that conversastion
[23:06] <Blast> i want to intall kubuntu
[23:06] <hoonteke> since I'm clearly no help.  :-{
[23:06] <hoonteke> :-P
[23:06] <giovani> Blast: then you need to download a different install cd
[23:06] <Flannel> Blast: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start, then ctrl-alt-f7
[23:06] <hoonteke> there we go.  gotta get the face right
[23:06] <giovani> kubuntu has separate install cds from ubuntu
[23:06] <giovani> I already linked you to www.kubuntu.org
[23:06] <giovani> to get them
[23:06] <Flannel> giovani: No, he doesn't.
[23:06] <Flannel> giovani: Also, please stop using the enter key as punctuation.
[23:06] <giovani> Flannel: if he wants kubuntu without the gnome packages ... he really should
[23:07] <Blast> im installing kde right now
[23:07] <Flannel> giovani: He wants them both installed.  He's currently installing gnome.  Or, just finished.
[23:07] <Blast> should i keep installing kde?
[23:07] <giovani> Flannel: I just asked him if he wanted both, he said he wanted kde, that doesn't sound like both to me, let's not start a pissing contest
[23:07] <jondiced> hey everybody, i have a quick question: how do i type special character in Polish? i've got the keyboard layout, but i don't know the key combos.
[23:07] <hmw> Blast hoonteke: restarting linux - right not neccecary unless kernel upgrade. Gnome? A different story. I often need to restart X, usually logging out does the trick.
[23:07] <mbreum> Jufis: What apps does it work in? Where do you output sound?
[23:07] <dga> can anyone make sense of this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/126051/
[23:08] <Blast> i want both gnome and Kubuntu
[23:08] <Dr_willis> Blast,  install the kubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktop packages.
[23:08] <austin> oCean_: it says its running, but when i go to the URL it doesnt show anything
[23:08] <hoonteke> hmw: ah, right you are, but I was explaining  the "in general" concept.
[23:08] <Jufis> mbreum, I can get rhythmbox to work. But that's it. I got it to work in skype too but then rhythmbox didn't work.
[23:08] <Blast> how
[23:08] <Blast> ?
[23:08] <giovani> Blast: alright, I asked you just a minute ago, and you said you wanted kubuntu -- so, if you want both, then just sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop (like we've said about 10 times) from within the system
[23:09] <Flannel> Blast: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop kubuntu-desktop
[23:09] <oCean_> austin: nothing at all? Or is there an error message?
[23:09] <austin> oCean_: Not found....and it won't let me write anyting to /var/www
[23:09] <hoonteke> Blast: from the cmmandline:
[23:09] <hoonteke> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ubuntu-desktop
[23:09] <hoonteke> then sit and wait while it downloads
[23:09] <sofakng> how can I debug why my system won't reboot (eg. sudo reboot) once I resume from standby?
[23:09] <coreyman> I'm trying to install themes on gnome, but if I copy them to themes folder they aren't showing up in >prefrences>appearance
[23:09] <hmw> hoonteke: I thought, it's a good idea to add that information. The "in general"-extended version ;)
[23:09] <Blast> im installing kde right now
[23:09] <coreyman> I'm downloading the themes from gnome-look.org
[23:09] <Blast> it still has a wile back
[23:10] <Blast> until its done
[23:10] <Blast> **
[23:10] <Flannel> Blast: that's fine.  Just wait for it to finish.
[23:10] <Dr_willis> coreyman,  drag/drop them to the theme connfig window - and it 'should' install them propery
[23:10] <mbreum> Jufis: I'm really not an expert at all, but you should set your default sound card with asoundconf
[23:10] <austin> how can i give myself full access?
[23:10] <lakcaj> Can someone recommend a network discovery utility?  I want to see all the machines connected to the router that I'm connected to, and when ports/services they have open.
[23:10] <oCean_> austin: "host not found" That can be, because network is not completely setup. Try http://127.0.1.1 and/or http://127.0.0.1
[23:10] <coreyman> Dr_willis it says it isn't a valid theme file.
[23:10] <hoonteke> alright, I'm out.  ciao.
[23:10] <Blast> it has 35 mins
[23:10] <hmw> !sudo | austin
[23:10] <Dr_willis> coreyman,  it may be a bad file/download then..
[23:10] <coreyman> Well, every one of these is bad Dr_willis?
[23:11] <Jufis> mbreum, I'll try that.
[23:11] <austin> oCean_:  it said failed to connect....and i'm talking about in a GUI
[23:11] <Bonee> hi, i'm new to ubuntu and a freequent irc user, does anyone know the best irc client that supports multiple servers and scripts?
[23:11] <Dr_willis> coreyman,   possibally - I always use the gnomeartng tool  and let it scan/download/install themes for me. its handy
[23:11] <Flannel> Bonee: x-chat is popular among GUI clients (for gnome), Konversation for KDE, and irssi for CLI
[23:11] <giovani> Bonee: "best" is just a matter of opinion -- some like xchat, some like konversation
[23:12] <giovani> xchat has pretty wide usage, and so, if you're looking for a wide variety of scripts, it's probably your best bet
[23:12] <oCean_> austin: ok. First of all, did you see what hmw send you? (the ubottu link) - run commands using "sudo" to gain root privileges
[23:12] <ZykoticK9> Bonee, I'm a noob with irc, but xchat supports multiple servers, not sure about the scripting
[23:12] <Dr_willis> coreyman,  its also possible you are doing somthing wrong.  There are several themes in the repositories  you could install if you wanted a few more also.
[23:12] <Altreus> At the risk of repeating a known problem, I get failed in buffer_read(fd): md5hash: Input/output error from kdelibs-data (4:3.5.10-0ubuntu1~hardy1.1)
[23:12] <Bonee> ok, do you know if konversation supports scripts?
[23:12] <sofakng> how do I refresh grub after I've changed menu.lst?
[23:12] <Altreus> Nothing else seems to trigger this problem.
[23:12] <giovani> ZykoticK9: it most certainly does
[23:12] <LogicFan> anyone familiar with rubygems and installing rails on ubuntu?
[23:12] <coreyman> Dr_willis can you go step by step with me.
[23:12] <giovani> Bonee: yes, konversation support scripts
[23:12] <oCean_> austin: check the apache logfile: "sudo tail /var/log/apache2/error_log" <-- this is in a terminal
[23:12] <jondiced> alt, ctrl, and windows don't do it
[23:12] <Dr_willis> sofakng,  grub reads the menu.lst at boot up. You dont really have to worry about it.
[23:12] <Bonee> giovani: thx :]
[23:13] <LogicFan> i have installed rails via rubygems, yet my system still does not recognize the installation
[23:13] <ZykoticK9> Altreus, are you installing from a CD?  i/o typically means some problem with the disk/drive
[23:13] <austin> oCean_: yah i got the whoel sudo thing
[23:13] <sofakng> Dr_willis: excellent - thanks!
[23:13] <cae> hey ppl, is it really offensive if i ask a question probably already asked?
[23:13] <coreyman> I download theme file to Documents, named Desk Mod Red.tar.gz what do i do from there.
[23:13] <Altreus> ZykoticK9: neg, update.
[23:13] <LogicFan> rubygems 1.3.1, ruby 1.8.7, rails 2.2
[23:13] <oCean_> austin: to open terminal (to use commandline) Applications > Accessoires > Terminal
[23:13] <LogicFan> on ubuntu 8.10 64bit
[23:13] <Dr_willis> coreyman,  not really. Im not in gnome..  You may want to check out the gnomeartng tool. it can install themes/wallpaper/decorations and stuff from the gnome-look sites with a nice gui.
[23:13] <Altreus> ZykoticK9: could be a bad download i guess...
[23:13] <coreyman> Dr_willis that sounds like a good tool.
[23:13] <Flannel> cae: Nope.  Go right ahead.
[23:14] <ZykoticK9> Altreus, you could try deleting the file from /var/cache/apt/archives and let apt download the file again
[23:14] <oCean_> austin: ok. Mastering sudo is a good way to start :) .. Now see what "sudo tail /var/log/apache2/error_log" has to say - but *do not paste here*
[23:14] <coreyman> Dr_Willis what repository is that file in?
[23:14] <Altreus> ZykoticK9: yeah I was about to ask where they were ^_^
[23:14] <oCean_> austin: if you want to share any output with us, use pastebin service
[23:14] <oCean_> !pastebin > austin
[23:15] <austin> oCean_: nothing shows  up when i run the command
[23:15] <austin> aka ocean_, no such file or directory
[23:15] <eTranquility> Hi, Synaptic can't seem to connect to the internet, so I can't get updates or install through it. It shows download rate as unknown. It was recently working fine but I'm not sure what triggered this. Possibly related is Gnome Do's inability to post tweets, which also previously worked. I can use Firefox and Pidgin with no problems. How do I rectify the situation?
[23:16] <oCean_> austin: err... but apache2 is installed, right?
[23:16] <austin> oCean_: that is correct...
[23:16] <oCean_> eTranquility: are you directly connected or through proxy? Might want to check System > Pref > networkproxy anyway
[23:16] <Jufis> mbreum, I just use "asoundconf list" to find out my soundcard's name and then "asoundconf set-default-card" to set it as default?
[23:17] <Dr_willis> coreyman,  not sure its in any.. i get it from the programs homepage.
[23:17] <ZykoticK9> eTranquility, you should try changing your mirror, this might help www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-select-fastest-mirror-in-ubuntu.html
[23:17] <oCean_> austin: the installation, how did you do that?
[23:17] <Dr_willis> coreyman, http://developer.berlios.de/projects/gnomeartng/
[23:17] <mbreum> Jufis: yes, I would assume so
[23:18] <oCean_> austin: default install (e.g. through synaptic or aptitude) should create all necessary directories
[23:18] <austin> oCean_: i don't remember exactly, but it was ether a choice i selected when install server ed., or i did the Sudo apt-get
[23:18] <Jufis> mbreum, do I need to unset pulseaudio or oss? or do anything else?
[23:18] <hmw> austin: by reading this introduction, you will learn the most importan things about linux, for a normal user, the text goes quite deep into details.http://tldp.org/LDP/intro-linux/html/
[23:18] <eTranquility> oCean_: Network Proxy has "Direct internet connection" selected. I do not use a proxy with my current connection. I connect through a proxy when I'm at school, but I do it through Firefox. Doing so has never interfered with Synaptic.
[23:19] <Daremo> need some help figuring out how to install a patch for mesa
[23:19] <oCean_> eTranquility: indeed. Just something to check..
[23:19] <Altreus> ZykoticK9: It didn't seem to fix the issue because it's not trying to download it again. There are other files matching kdelibs-data in /var/lib/dpkg/info but I'm not sure how safe it would be to meddle with them
[23:19] <``ph8> hey yo! I'm trying to use 'Seatools' for linux (Seagate's disk diagnostic stuff) - but it comes up with a 'no such file or directory' error - this worked before I wiped my hard drives and reinstalled ubuntu - any guesses at what libraries it might rely on?
[23:20] <coreyman> Dr_willis : When I try to open gnomeartng it says it can't open cause the associated helper application does not exist.
[23:20] <ZykoticK9> Altreus, but you tried deleting the file kdelibs-data?
[23:20] <mbreum> Jufis: Heard someone say that you shouldn't use pulse and recommended uninstalling it. Why do you have oss - did you install that explicitly?
[23:20] <oCean_> austin: hm.. See what is in config: "cd /etc/apache2" and then "ls -al sites-enabled"
[23:20] <Altreus> ZykoticK9: I deleted the .deb in the cache
[23:20] <Daremo> i want to install this patch for mesa, but not quite sure how to start
[23:20] <Daremo> http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=954dfba12986f578f2d8461818f9e9ac1f8f2b41
[23:20] <Dr_willis> coreyman,  run it from the command line perhaps?
[23:20] <oCean_> austin: use sudo btw
[23:20] <Altreus> ZykoticK9: it didn't try to download it again
[23:20] <coreyman> k trying.
[23:21] <Dr_willis> !find gnomeart
[23:21] <Dr_willis> !find gnome-art
[23:21] <Dr_willis> !info gnome-art
[23:21] <mchelen> how can the default player for .avi be changed?
[23:22] <Daremo> hallllloooo? :)
[23:22] <ZykoticK9> Altreus, sorry man, I got nothing???
[23:22] <Jufis> mbreum, I don't know how did I got oss. Can I uninstall it?
[23:22] <gh0st3r> im having problems with booting... ive got an IDE harddrive in the system (main OS drive) and ive just installed a SATA drive (for data), worked fine until SATA drive was installed... now on bootup when loading the kernel im getting the error "Cant not find root device" and it boots into a Busybox Initramfs prompim having problems with booting... ive got an IDE harddrive in the system (main OS drive) and ive just installed a SATA d
[23:22] <Altreus> ZykoticK9: ok, thanks for trying :)
[23:22] <gh0st3r> rive (for data), worked fine until SATA drive was installed... now on bootup when loading the kernel im getting the error "Cant not find root device" and it boots into a Busybox Initramfs promp
[23:22] <gh0st3r> what do i do to fix?
[23:23] <corinth> Which should be larger, a partition for /var or for /etc ?
[23:23] <austin> oCean_: keeps tellign me invalid option/operation
[23:24] <father_marc> mchelen... did someone answer your question?
[23:24] <father_marc> mchelen: I'd be happy to if nobody has resolved it.
[23:24] <mbreum> Jufis: I guess you can... sudo apt-get remove [packagename] - packagenames can be found with sudo apt-cache search oss
[23:24] <khem> anybody seeing issues with T61/jaunty wireless it worked fine for me till yesterday
[23:24] <ZykoticK9> coreyman, my /var contails 2.2G, my /etc 15M you be the judge
[23:24] <Jufis> mbreum, okay. I'll uninstall oss. Should I uninstall pulse too?
[23:25] <eTranquility> oCean_: Is there anything I can type into the console that might shed light on my connection status? A lot of things are working fine. Maybe it's a port thing? (I have no idea.)
[23:25] <ZykoticK9> corinth, sorry see my post directed to coreyma n
[23:25] <Daremo> father_marc i got a question :)
[23:25] <oCean_> austin: "cd /etc/apache2" (no need to use the sudo there) does not work? See if the directory exists: "ls -al /etc/apa*"
[23:26] <austin> oCean_: cd /etc/apache2 works just fine
[23:26] <oCean_> austin: ok
[23:26] <oCean_> austin: and then: "ls -al sites-enabled"
[23:26] <oCean_> austin: that being a subdirectory of the /etc/apache2 dir
[23:27] <father_marc> mchelen: Right-click on an .avi file; click on the "Properties" option; click on the "Open With" tab; select the application you want to open all .avi with.
[23:27] <coreyman> Dr_willis: I got it installed somehow.... it's doing the first tiem download assistant now :D
[23:27] <Daremo> i wonder if im lagged....
[23:27] <oCean_> eTranquility: you *can* connect through firefox right, so that does not seem to be the problem. When you start synaptic from commandline, maybe you get output (error?)
[23:28] <coreyman> Dr_willis: I read this gets themes from gnome art and not gnome look?
[23:28] <GeorgeAScott> according to this help doc https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AiptekTablet , i create an fdi file.  does the fdi file refer to xorg.conf?  do i need to have aiptek info in xorg.conf to link to the fdi file in hal?
[23:28] <c0ca1n3> hello, I use both Ubuntu and Xubuntu. At the moment I am at Xubuntu OS. is there any way to get a file in my Ubuntu OS without rebooting my pc?
[23:28] <Jufis> mbreum, I also got ALSA. Should I leave it or uninstall it?
[23:28] <gjesvik> ACCEPT JESUS
[23:28] <Flannel> gjesvik: Please stay on topic
[23:28] <Daremo> heh
[23:28] <Flannel> c0ca1n3: You dualboot? or you just have them both installed?
[23:29] <c0ca1n3> Flannel : I have them both installed
[23:29] <Daremo> I am trying to install a patch for Mesa... here http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=954dfba12986f578f2d8461818f9e9ac1f8f2b41
[23:29] <ZykoticK9> c0ca1n3, you could mount the ubuntu drive???
[23:29] <Daremo> not sure how to start other than downloading it... which i have done...
[23:29] <mbreum> Jufis: ALSA is the default
[23:29] <puff> Hiyo... I'm installing ubuntu on a box that has no network.  Is there a way I can download a bunch of packages to a CD to use instead ofa repo?
[23:29] <Daremo> isnt there a way to apt-get something like that?
[23:29] <c0ca1n3> ZykoticK9  I donno what mount is, sorry
[23:29] <Jufis> mbreum, oh okay
[23:29] <Flannel> c0ca1n3: Dualboot? or on the same install?
[23:30] <eTranquility> oCean_: Synaptic works fine launched from terminal... no errors, just connection errors if I try to update or install.
[23:30] <ZykoticK9> puff, if another computer has ubuntu on it you could copy the contents of /var/cache/apt/archive to this computer?  just install/update everything you need on the ubuntu with network connection
[23:30] <c0ca1n3> Flannel : ummm.. I have them both installed on the same pc semarately.. (no idea what dualboot is :D)
[23:31] <Flannel> c0ca1n3: Separately?  Alright.  So you pick one or the other at your boot screen? (at GRUB? where you select a kernel?) not where you log in?
[23:31] <Jufis> mbreum, sorry to bother you so much, but seems like I have this linux-sound-base package installed. "base package for ALSA and OSS sound systems. This package allows the administrator to choose between the OSS and ALSA sound systems."
[23:31] <c0ca1n3> Flannel : on the boot screen
[23:31] <Jufis> mbreum, I think I got oss with that package
[23:31]  * Daremo wonders if anyone can see him.. or if hes lagged.. alot
[23:32] <Flannel> c0ca1n3: Alright.  That's dual booting.  You didn't need to dual boot, by the way.  Xubuntu and Ubuntu can exist on the same install (same partition/etc), with the same users, at that.
[23:32] <oCean_> eTranquility: sorry mate, I'm out of options. Was hoping some helpful messages might appear in terminal.
[23:32] <GeorgeAScott> i see you ***Daremo
[23:33] <c0ca1n3> Flannel : I'm kinda new at this so I didn't know all the details
[23:33] <Daremo> Thanks george
[23:33] <Flannel> c0ca1n3: But yes, you can read your other files on this install. you just have to mount your other partition.  (If this is a new install for one of them, you should strongly consider removing the new install, and just adding it to the other)
[23:33] <eTranquility> oCean_: Thanks anyway. = )
[23:33] <Flannel> c0ca1n3: So, this is a brand new install? (at least, one of them is?)
[23:33] <mbreum> Jufis: Hm.. I would think you could uninstall oss and leave the sound-base package in place
[23:33] <oCean_> austin: are you giving up? I have about 6 minutes of battery life left, and with the plug being at the office.. I'll be gone in 6 mins...
[23:33] <c0ca1n3> ummmm.. I guess so
[23:34] <oCean_> eTranquility: ok. Hope you find the fix :)
[23:34] <c0ca1n3> so I need to uninstall or something?
[23:34] <sofakng> Why would a killall -SEGV not terminate a frozen application?
[23:34] <Daremo> I am trying to install a patch for Mesa... here http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=954dfba12986f578f2d8461818f9e9ac1f8f2b41
[23:34] <Flannel> c0ca1n3: Did you just install Ubuntu? (and have been using Xubuntu for a bit?)
[23:34] <ZykoticK9> Daremo, for that patch you'd need to have the source code, then manually apply the patch, then compile the new version and install it -- not specifically an ubuntu question???  good luck
[23:34] <Daremo> yech
[23:34] <c0ca1n3> Flannel : I've been using both. Mostly I use Xubuntu
[23:34] <billybigrigger> love anyone here by chance have an antec earthwatts 380w PSU?
[23:35] <Daremo> grumble.. alright ill go post where i dug that thread up...
[23:35] <Daremo> thanks though
[23:35] <Daremo> btw
[23:35] <Daremo> that SHOULD be the solution to the dual screen compiz problem you were helping me with last night
[23:35] <c0ca1n3> Flannel : So what do I need to do to mount?
[23:35] <Flannel> c0ca1n3: Alright, well, the *best* (for future) thing to do would be to copy all of your files from your Ubuntu one over to your other home folder (to the Xubuntu one) and then remove the Ubuntu one, expand your Xubuntu one to take up the entire space, and then install `ubuntu-desktop`
[23:36] <silversurfer> My dual boot Ubuntu/Vista dual SATA system won't boot (error code 73) after installing Vista SP1.  Can someone please help me to the fastest way to backup the data on the Vista side and then to recover the system?
[23:36] <GeorgeAScott> what dual screen compiz problem? i just set up dual screen last night, working fine with compiz
[23:36] <c0ca1n3> hmmm.. for an example if I am in ubuntu OS I need to take that same step?
[23:36] <Daremo> i am running over 2048 x 1024 for resolution and compiz really doesnt like that
[23:37] <hmw> Daremo: ATI?
[23:37] <Jufis> mbreum, lol. When I select pulseaudio to be uninstalled from synaptic package manager, it says that I need to uninstall ubuntu-desktop too.
[23:37] <Daremo> uh huh...
[23:37] <Daremo> 9250
[23:37] <Flannel> c0ca1n3: If you plan on doing it right now, you're probably best off using a liveCD to do everything.  It (should) mount everything by default, so you can just copy stuff from one to the other.  Then shuffle partitions
[23:37] <jgood> who should i be talking to about the installing of ubuntu problems?
[23:37] <Flannel> Jufis: that's correct.  ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage, its safe to remove.
[23:38] <GeorgeAScott> mines 2304x1024
[23:38] <c0ca1n3> Flannel : okz
[23:38] <mbreum> Jufis: Is alsa installed? If not, you may install that and see if you can remove pulse then...
[23:38] <ZykoticK9> jgood, just ask your question and someone might answer
[23:38] <hmw> Daremo: maximum texture size of your GPU is 2024x2048, you gotta live with that. If you want both screens to have a higher resolution, you need to place them one above the other. Ugly, but works.
[23:38] <Daremo> blech
[23:38] <hmw> Daremo: 2048^2 of course.
[23:39] <jgood> well, i partitioned my hard drive to dual boot xp and ubuntu, and when i go to instal ubuntu i put the disk in, it comes up to the setup screen i click install ubuntu ... and then nothing
[23:39] <Schwag> anyone know anything about pppconfig?
[23:39] <Daremo> is that a fix for the next ubuntu release? or xrandr?
[23:39] <Daremo> hopeful fix i shoudl say
[23:40] <Daremo> and if i switch to a different video card that can support over 2024x1048 that would work also right?
[23:40] <hmw> Daremo: I suggest you study driver programming and do it for us *g*
[23:40] <coreyman> Why are these themes not complete themes.
[23:40] <Schwag> im trying to use pppconfig for a phone as a modem, using lsusb reads my iden motorola modem, but i cant select it to use with pppconfig
[23:40] <coreyman> What in the heck are they in peices for.
[23:40] <hmw> Daremo: I think, it might be a limitation of the GPU, not the drivers.
[23:40] <Daremo> lol man.. i have been doign ENOUGH learning just trying to set this up
[23:40] <Daremo> whats the GPU?
[23:40] <rww> Daremo: the stuff on the graphics card
[23:41] <coreyman> Daremo graphics processing unit
[23:41] <hmw> Daremo: Graphic Processing Unit, or "Graphics Card"
[23:41] <Phrozen_One> whats the easiest way of determining if a piece of hardware has had a device driver loaded for it?
[23:41] <rww> Daremo: i.e., a hardware limitation, not a software one. i.e., not something Ubuntu can fix.
[23:41] <SuspectZero> any way to check out the causes of a kernel panic?
[23:41] <Daremo> AHHH
[23:41] <Daremo> yep
[23:41] <ZykoticK9> jgood, have you tried using the option to "install ubuntu" rather then "try ubuntu without any change to your computer" when you first boot the cd?
[23:41] <austin> oCean_:ok i got it and go some stfff
[23:41] <GeorgeAScott> phrozen_one lsmod
[23:41] <Schwag> SupspectZero, the only time i had a kernel panic was with an overclock
[23:41] <corinth> I'm looking for advice on partitioning my 160GB hard drive. There's a good possibility that I'll reinstall fairly often, so I'm looking for what I should keep seperate from root besides /home
[23:41] <austin> oCean: sorry about that, had to go real quick
[23:41] <jgood> zykotick9, thats the only one i did try
[23:42] <Daremo> well whats interesting is in that bug description, they specifically mention that compiz is doing something wrong with the size
[23:42] <Jufis> Flannel, what does that "metapackage" mean?
[23:42] <Schwag> im trying to use pppconfig for a phone as a modem, using lsusb reads my iden motorola modem, but i cant select it to use with pppconfig
[23:42] <rww> corinth: just /home would be okay. If you want to keep your system configuration too, /etc would be useful.
[23:42] <Phrozen_One> GeorgeAScott, that lists loaded modules, how can I tell if all of the modules have loaded for the appropriate hardware?
[23:42] <sofakng> Why would a killall -SEGV not terminate a frozen application?
[23:42] <ZykoticK9> jgood, that screen doesn't support mouse, you need to press ENTER
[23:42] <Jufis> mbreum, yes, I have alsa installed
[23:42] <jgood> zykotick9, enter, click same thing XD... yea i know i did press enter
[23:42] <corinth> rww, I don't need a seperate /usr to preserve application stuffs?
[23:43] <ditto> for some reason wlan0, and wmaster0 come up on my ifconfig and i can no longer view wireless networks... How do I remove the wmaster0 network device?
[23:43] <syborg> corinth: if you have written any scripts in sbin, maybe that too
[23:43] <jgood> zykotick9, it revs up the disc drive like it is going to do something it just doesn't do anything
[23:43] <GeorgeAScott> phrozen_one look thru it or grep it for what your needing i guess
[23:43] <DIFH-iceroot> using / and /home on a SSD. should i use ext2 or ext3?
[23:43] <Daremo> alright thanks for the help
[23:43] <DIFH-iceroot> and /home are different SSDs
[23:43] <ZykoticK9> jgood, have you checked the MD5 of the cd image you downloaded?
[23:43] <rww> corinth: well, if you're going to keep /usr and everything between reinstalls, I don't see the point of reinstalling ;)
[23:43] <reacuna> corinth: maybe /var if your planning on using you comp. to serve stuff. On that same line, /srv , but I haven't seen anyone use it :)
[23:43] <Dr_willis> ditto,  from what i recaall reading of wirless docs.. you suold just ignore wmaster0 its used internally by the wirless drivers or somthing like that.
[23:44] <jgood> zykotick9, nope, how would i go about doing that?
[23:44] <hmw> Daremo: I know, Linux can be hard. Do not give up easily, if you get frustrated. Linux is still best for people, who like to learn/trial&error/reprogram the stuff. You might get to a point, where you want to give up. Don't, you will advance over time, and it pays off a lot, once you domesticated your PC.
[23:44] <ditto> Dr_willis, how do i ignore?
[23:44] <Dr_willis> ditto,  dont worry about it?
[23:44] <rww> DIFH-iceroot: ext2. ext3 uses journalling, which will increase writes to your SSD. You might also want to look at noatime and relatime (fstab options)
[23:44] <ditto> Dr_willis, well it wasnt there bfore and then it showed up. Now I cannot see wireless networks
[23:44] <Dr_willis> ditto,  i have it on my Netbook.. and wireless works fine. You use the slan0 device..
[23:44] <DIFH-iceroot> rww: and dont have a journal is ok?
[23:44] <Daremo> hmw oh im not quitting, im probably just going to go spend 50-75$ on a much more supported video card and not worry about it :)
[23:44] <Dr_willis> ditto,  that does not prove its the problem. :)
[23:45] <Schwag> im trying to use pppconfig for a phone as a modem, using lsusb reads my iden motorola modem, but i cant select it to use with pppconfig
[23:45] <ditto> Dr_willis, you mean slan0 = wlan0?
[23:45] <Dr_willis> yes
[23:45] <rww> DIFH-iceroot: yeah. It's a little less resistant to power failure, but it worked fine for years before ext3 came along ;)
[23:45] <glitsj16> Phrozen_One: sudo lshw -html > lshw.html produces a list of hardware present with all sorts of usefull info, the html file output is there for easy reading through a browser .. it has driver info as well if that is what you're looking for
[23:45] <corinth> What's a good size for / if I have seperate /etc, /usr, and /home partitions?
[23:45] <ZykoticK9> jgood, i take it you have a working Windows computer but not a linux one?  i only know how to check MD5s in linux - i know it's possible with windows just don't know what app you need (i'm sure someone here does though)
[23:45] <Daremo> have a good night im off to make dinner :)
[23:45] <Flannel> Jufis: a metapackage is a package that doesn't provide any files itself, but depends on files.  ubuntu-desktop depends on all the packages you need for a desktop install of Ubuntu (with gnome), but it doesn't provide any of those files itself.
[23:45] <Phrozen_One> glitsj16, I will look into that. Thank you :0
[23:45] <ditto> OK, ty.... anyway of diagnosing what is causing  wireless networks not to show?
[23:45] <DIFH-iceroot> rww: but if have power failure i can easily recover ext2?
[23:45] <hmw> Daremo: Sounds like a good idea. I hate my Radeon 9600.
[23:46] <jgood> zykotick9, yup, the windows partition works fine, i just can't get an install of linux on the other one, let me do a google search and see what i turn up
[23:46] <rww> DIFH-iceroot: fsck would run on reboot and do it for you, yes
[23:46] <hmw> Daremo: ATI-Dual + Voodoo Banshee. Horrible to configure.
[23:46] <DIFH-iceroot> rww: thank you, i will use ext2 for / and /home
[23:47] <Schwag> im trying to use pppconfig for a phone as a modem, using lsusb reads my iden motorola modem, but i cant select it to use with pppconfig
[23:47] <Jufis> Flannel, synaptic says that "It is also used to help ensure proper upgrades". If I delete pulseaudio and ubuntu-desktop uninstalls with it, what happens to the updates?
[23:47] <glitsj16> Phrozen_One: the resulting lshw.html file will be located in the dir you run that command from btw
[23:47] <rww> Jufis: it means upgrades as in Hardy>Intrepid, not normal updates.
[23:47] <Phrozen_One> glitsj16, I'm working cli atm, maybe I'll see how it looks with lynx
[23:47] <darthbobby> Why would my laptop be running extremely hot on a Ubuntu install.  This isn't the first time it's been installed, but it's the first time it's overheated.  Granted, normally I install standard Ubuntu Intrepid Desktop, and this time I installed the latest Ubuntu Ultimate Gamer Edition.
[23:48] <jgood> anybody here have a favorite MD5 checker or should i just find a generic one off of google?
[23:48] <Jufis> rww, ahh thank you
[23:48] <glitsj16> Phrozen_One: lshw isn't limited to html output, just run "sudo lshw | less" will give the same info
[23:48] <nightrid3r> jgood md5sum
[23:48] <jgood> zykotick9, which files should i be MD5 checking, or just the entire disk?
[23:48] <millertime_018> hey man, i got a bluetooth dongle and I can't send files to my cell from my computer. can anyone help?
[23:49] <Schwag> im trying to use pppconfig for a phone as a modem, using lsusb reads my iden motorola modem, but i cant select it to use with pppconfig
[23:49] <mezy> can someone point me to a place where i can make a custom ubuntu cd using a live cd?
[23:49] <ZykoticK9> jgood, you need the MD5 of the ISO file, then make sure it's EXACTLY the same as the MD5 shown on the download page
[23:49] <puff> Is there anything special I need to do with Brasero to make the ubuntu install CD that I'm burning a bootable CD?
[23:49] <jgood> ok
[23:49] <mbreum> Jufis: Signing off - hope you get it working. May the force be with you!
[23:49] <Blast> hey dose anyone know what i should do from here? --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/126059/
[23:49] <mchelen> puff, nope, just burn image
[23:50] <rww> puff: Use the "Burn image" option and point it to your .iso file.
[23:50] <puff> mchelen: Cooll, thanks.
[23:50] <ZykoticK9> jgood, this is basically just checking that the ISO file is fine, install not doing anything might suggest a problem with the disk you downloaded
[23:50] <puff> rww:  "Burn image"?
[23:50] <mezy> can someone point me to a place where i can make a custom ubuntu cd using a live cd?
[23:50] <Schwag> im trying to use pppconfig for a phone as a modem, using lsusb reads my iden motorola modem, but i cant select it to use with pppconfig
[23:50] <rww> puff: yes, as opposed to "Data project", "Audio project", etc. on the Brasero main window.
[23:51] <fbc> how do I dump the output of a command to a text file?
[23:51] <puff> Ah, under Project submenu.
[23:51] <andy_klaj_1985> hi guys my bootup is kind of slow, i got this from /var/log
[23:51] <andy_klaj_1985> [   13.602577] kjournald starting.  Commit interval 5 seconds
[23:51] <andy_klaj_1985> [   13.602585] EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.
[23:51] <andy_klaj_1985> [  142.613462] udevd version 124 started
[23:51] <andy_klaj_1985> [  143.102617] iTCO_vendor_support: vendor-support=0
[23:51] <FloodBot3> andy_klaj_1985: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:51] <andy_klaj_1985> it looks like udevd is taking up time. am i right? and can i do anything to fix it?
[23:51] <rww> fbc: commandname > filename. If you want to append to the file, instead of overwriting it, use >> instead of >
[23:51] <ZykoticK9> fbc, "... > test.txt"
[23:51] <puff> rww: It didn't come up with the main menu, oddly enough.
[23:51] <ActionParsnip> fbc: at the end of the command put > ~/output.txt
[23:51] <jgood> zykotick9, so i'm checking the iso i downloaded, not the disk itself correct
[23:52] <ZykoticK9> jgood, yup
[23:52] <Schwag> im trying to use pppconfig for a phone as a modem, using lsusb reads my iden motorola modem, but i cant select it to use with pppconfig
[23:52] <ZykoticK9> jgood, actually checking the disk might be even better
[23:52] <ActionParsnip> jgood: there is a disk chec you can do on the first menu screen when you boot the cd
[23:52] <jgood> ZykoticK9, it won't actually let me just do the disk, only files on the disk, which is why i asked which one
[23:52] <ActionParsnip> jgood: do both
[23:53] <jgood> ok
[23:53] <fbc> ActionParsnip, I tried "find -user postgres > postgresfiles.txt" but it did not work.
[23:53] <Royall> Is there any way to get a total list of all the packages installed on my system? Perhaps in  a text file?
[23:53] <ZykoticK9> jgood, in linux you could check the whole disk :p, then check the ISO and assume the burn went ok
[23:53] <slops> hey all
[23:53] <glitsj16> mezy: http://uck.sourceforge.net/ (ubuntu customization kit)
[23:53] <ActionParsnip> fbc: does find -user postgres output results to the screen?
[23:54] <fbc> ActionParsnip, yes
[23:54] <andy_klaj_1985> hi my boot up is kind of slow, i think it is udevd (i put the log file in paste.ubuntu.com) am i right- can it be fixed?
[23:54] <jgood> ZykoticK9, so here is the thing it gave me 24EA1163EA6C9F5DAE77DE8C49EE7C03 i have no clue what this really means or what i'm comparing it too, this is beyond me
[23:54] <slops> question how do i switch from gnome to kde in my install of ubuntu 8.10
[23:54] <ZykoticK9> Royall, yes - but i'm not sure what the command is???
[23:54] <Schwag> im trying to use pppconfig for a phone as a modem, using lsusb reads my iden motorola modem, but i cant select it to use with pppconfig
[23:54] <rww> Royall: aptitude search ~i > ~/filename.txt
[23:54] <ZykoticK9> jgood, what version of ubuntu did you download, i assume it wasn't a live cd
[23:55] <fbc> ActionParsnip, ok I think I found my mistake... I was running the command in home dir.. I needed to move out to root...
[23:55] <ActionParsnip> fbc: then try: find -user postgres > ~/postgresfiles.txt; gedit ~/postgresfiles.txt
[23:55] <rww> slops: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[23:55] <slops> ok thanks
[23:55] <slops> ill try it out
[23:55] <Schwag> im trying to use pppconfig for a phone as a modem, using lsusb reads my iden motorola modem, but i cant select it to use with pppconfig
[23:55] <jgood> ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386.iso  the one from the website when you click 'download ubuntu" so 8.10
[23:56] <fbc> ActionParsnip, I had some joker logged into my server as postgres running pscan2
[23:56] <andy_klaj_1985> hi my boot up is kind of slow, i think it is udevd (i put the log file in http://paste.ubuntu.com/126061/) am i right- can it be fixed
[23:56] <ActionParsnip> fbc: nice
[23:56] <fbc> ActionParsnip, I'm curious to know what he uploaded...before I cut him off.
[23:56] <ZykoticK9> jgood, then when you boot the CD you should get options to either install or run the live cd???  do you get a brown background, with a bird, when you clicked the "install now"
[23:57] <jgood> ZykoticK9, boot it within windows or put the CD in and reboot?
[23:57] <millertime_018> I can't send files from my computer to my phone
[23:57] <ZykoticK9> jgood, the MD5 of your ISO is fine.
[23:57] <jwaldo> Hello, I'm trying to dual-boot Ubuntu and XP on my EeePC 900HA. I have 60GB of free space on the drive, but it doesn't seem to notice that during the install, and wants to either resize the XP partition or use the whole drive. Any way around that?
[23:57] <ActionParsnip> fbc: depends when the system was accessed? you could find files editted in the last 1 day, then 2  days and last 3 days and so on then find their user ownerships etc
[23:57] <sweetgum1> can someone help me out with emerald, ive selected a them an i used emerald --replace to update it, but i get the following warningme/david/.themes/Mire v2_Blue/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:63: Murrine configuration option "hilight_ratio" will be deprecated in future releases.

[23:58] <Dr_willis> sweetgum1,  dont use the close button.. use the 'exit' command
[23:58] <coppro> I've been fiddling with drivers, and now KDE won't start up
[23:58] <fbc> ActionParsnip, I just found all the stuff he had under /usr/tmp
[23:58] <jgood> ZykoticK9, k, the machine i'm trying to install it on is a different machine then the one i'm taking to you on so let me load it up
[23:58] <nOStahl> hey all why is WPA not an option when i try to connecto a wireless network?
[23:58] <sweetgum1> Dr_willis: the terminal sticks on teh error message, how can i escape it without ctrl + c, t his also removes the title bar

[23:58] <austin> can anyone help me view my files online?
[23:59] <coppro> "radeon.o kernel module version is 8.54.3, but 1.17.0 is required"
[23:59] <Dr_willis> sweetgum1,  it 'reoves' the title bar becauyse you are forcing the program to quit.
[23:59] <dust_> i can see computer in bluetooth settings
[23:59] <coppro> so things go REALLY slow
[23:59] <coppro> (DRI is turned off)
[23:59] <ActionParsnip> fbc: makes sense
[23:59] <fbc> ActionParsnip, I meant /var/tmp
[23:59] <sweetgum1> Dr_willis: what do you mean by commandname &?
[23:59] <jgood> ZykoticK9, computer booted, boot from CD, copy right things, ubuntu logo, select language, english, install ubuntu, .... nothing
[23:59] <coppro> I just purged and reinstalled xserver-xorg, and nothing is changed
