[00:00] <sdasdas> Flare183, no problem
[00:00] <crdlb> andre1: ok, it is working, what you can do is go to System > Preferences > Appearance > Visual Effects, and make sure that's set to None
[00:00] <crdlb> andre1: then you can use alt+left mouse button to move the window around so you can see all of it
[00:00] <BrandonB> I just want to say thanks to all who have helped me get Ubuntu up and running, so Thank you!
[00:01] <|kush> sup guys
[00:01] <|kush> i'm here on ubuntu :D
[00:01] <silentContender> genii, reinstalling libc6 does nothing
[00:01] <|kush> I downloaded irssi, but i cannot get it running
[00:01] <|kush> lol
[00:01] <zash> |kush: you downloaded irssi?
[00:01] <PoetOfShadows> |kush: what's the error given?
[00:01] <redhawk> anyone know how to launch Anim 2000 after install
[00:02] <zash> |kush: tarball or with package manager?
[00:03] <Huufarted> Anybody know what I need to remove from /etc/resolv.conf to force Ubuntu to use dhcp for them?
[00:04] <BrandonB> :\
[00:04] <BrandonB> Why wont my wireless workj ;(
[00:04] <andre1> crdlb  I can't change the resolution.
[00:04] <BrandonB> I got the wep key , but it keeps asking for the authentication
[00:04] <genii> silentContender: Looks like something similar on this here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/59758
[00:04] <PoetOfShadows> BrandonB: what kind of WEP do you have?
[00:04] <sprinkmeier_> Huufarted, unrelated. DHCP can tell you which DNS servers to use, which ends up in /etc/resolv.conf, but editing resolf.conf won't affect DHCP
[00:04] <BrandonB> It recognises my card (thank god)
[00:04] <BrandonB> 64 bit
[00:04] <skooz> can i use my printer that is connected to a windows computer
[00:05] <nightrid3r> skooz yes
[00:05] <PoetOfShadows> BrandonB: are you sure that you are using the correct type of WEP password? If I recall, there are like 3 different types of WEP
[00:05] <skooz> good
[00:05] <andre1> crdlb I have a 19" flat panel lcd screen.. the max resolution for this monitor + video card is like 1340x900
[00:05] <Huufarted> sprinkmeier_, dhcp can be used to populate DNS servers as well.  I'm trying to figure out how to make Ubuntu grab the DNS entries from the DHCP server again
[00:05] <BrandonB> I am pretty sure :\
[00:06] <crdlb> andre1: do you see the X Server Display Configuration page?
[00:06] <Huufarted> sprinkmeier_, I overwrote the default /etc/resolv.conf but like a fool didn't back it up first
[00:06] <sprinkmeier_> Huufarted, drop your interfaces and raise them again? or slightly faster: "sudo killall -9 dhclient ; sudo dhclient eth0"
[00:07] <andre1> crdlb  yes, this is where I'm in, tryin to change the resolution
[00:07] <crdlb> andre1: so what are the choices for Resolution?
[00:07] <BrandonB> Anyone here like Lifehacker?
[00:07] <BrandonB> >.>
[00:07] <usser> Huufarted, /etc/resolv.conf gets overwritten anyway with stuff your computer gets from dhcp server
[00:07] <sprinkmeier_> Huufarted, or, look at /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.leases (it lists everything the DHCP server gave you) and un-munge the resolv.conf
[00:08] <andre1> 640x480 & 320x240
[00:08] <Huufarted> sprinkmeier_, thanks.  That will come in handy
[00:08] <andre1> crdlb  ^
[00:08] <crdlb> andre1: :/
[00:08] <crdlb> andre1: did you try pressing Detect Displays?
[00:08] <sprinkmeier_> andre1, 640 pixels should be enough for anyone...
[00:08] <andre1> I believe the nvidia-glx driver is wrong.
[00:09] <andre1> lol 640 is too large... i can't settle for 640 when it should be 1340
[00:09] <AZP> hola a todos
[00:09] <crdlb> andre1: you are using the proprietary nvidia driver, the only choice other than the 2d-only nv driver
[00:09] <LjL> !es | AZP
[00:09] <AZP> ok gracias
[00:10] <andre1> damn... that's too bad. I'll stick to windows XP until there's drivers that can handle this I guess.
[00:10] <LjL> !fixres | andre1
[00:11] <unko> hey guys with song bird when i plug in my ipod touch it dosnt come up?
[00:11] <[T]ank> anyone here familiar with gbtsco? I have installed it and attempted to pair with my bluetooth headset but it will not see the device.
[00:11] <phuzion> Anyone here write PHP in Ubuntu and use SVN regularly?  I'm just moving from Windows, and I'm looking for a client that will interface with SVN nicely, anyone know of anything?
[00:11] <AZP> hola no econtre el servidor en español
[00:11] <[T]ank> following this tutorial: http://redmonk.com/sogrady/?p=1780&akst_action=share-this
[00:11] <LjL> AZP: escribe /join #ubuntu-es
[00:11] <crdlb> andre1: I assume you have already looked in System > Preferences > Screen Resolution, right?
[00:11] <LjL> phuzion: not sure where PHP fits in there...?
[00:11] <Flare183> !away | joss-away
[00:12] <phuzion> LjL: I write PHP code, and need a client that supports it, but also interfaces with SVN nicely
[00:12] <andre1> crdlb , yes

[00:12] <brunner> sorry, I didn't mean to paste that here
[00:13] <brunner> but now that I did, does anyone know what might cause that?
[00:13] <tw1tch> andre1: are you using the Nvidia X server settings package?
[00:13] <LjL> phuzion: a "client"? i don't get you really. i understand what an SVN client is, but i have no idea what a PHP "client" would be. perhaps you mean a PHP-oriented IDE, with integrated SVN upload/download support?
[00:13] <dean> cosmic rays
[00:13] <dean> emacs
[00:13] <phuzion> LjL, sorry, I need an editor
[00:13] <andre1> tw1tch, yes
[00:14] <sizzlefire> For some reason I keep getting SQUASHFS errors, can anyone tell me how to fix that?
[00:14] <genii> silentContender: Do you have in /etc/event.d   director, files with names tty1 tty2    and so on?
[00:14] <sizzlefire> that is during install by the way
[00:14] <tw1tch> abdre1: and it will not let you change the resolution with it?
[00:14] <Flare183> sizzlefire: Its the CD or your CD reader
[00:15] <sizzlefire> ok, im pretty sure its not the CD, as I have used it in other computers
[00:15] <sizzlefire> Buffer I/O error also
[00:15] <andre1> tw1tch it will.. but the resolution is too low.
[00:15] <brunner> can anyone tell me what might cause apt-get to seg fault while setting up module-init-tools?
[00:15] <LjL> phuzion: uhm, off hands i can't find anything that's both a code editor and acts as an svn client. let me look better
[00:15] <andre1> I should be able to have 1340x900 max
[00:15] <dean> LjL: emacs works
[00:15] <LjL> dean: err, yeah well i guess it does
[00:15] <sprinkmeier_> phuzion, emacs. it's the last editor you'll ever need :-)
[00:17] <tw1tch> andre1: what video card do you have and what video card does ubuntu say you have? using lspci
[00:17] <unmonkey> it does a great job at cooking toast or changing tires
[00:17] <LjL> phuzion: kdevelop depends on libsvn, so should probably have built-in svn capabilities (it's KDE though)
[00:17] <unmonkey> but i think vi is the better editor
[00:17] <LjL> editor wars in #ubuntu-bots or #ubuntu-offtopic please ;)
[00:18] <andre1> tw1tch 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation nForce2 AGP (rev a2)
[00:18] <Nick_Meister> hello guys
[00:18] <Nick_Meister> i tried to install LUK
[00:18] <Nick_Meister> and it broke my computer please help me
[00:18] <LjL> phuzion: anjuta depends on libsvn too, but i think it's pretty centered on C(++) development
[00:18] <Juan> hey
[00:19] <andre1> tw1tch VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX - nForce GPU] (rev a3)
[00:19] <Juan> hey gurls
[00:19] <sprinkmeier_> Nick_Meister,  symptoms?
[00:19] <tw1tch> andre1: this is as you expect? which driver does ubuntu hardware drivers give you?
[00:19] <phuzion> LjL, I use a program called TortiseSVN on Windows, which is essentially a shell extension for SVN.  Is there anything like that for Ubuntu?
[00:19] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, i get an error with grub as follows Error 11: Unrecognized device string
[00:19] <andre1> nvidia-glx
[00:20] <andre1> brb, i uninstalled the driver and i need to restart.
[00:20] <LjL> phuzion: yes there is (though you asked for someone that also worked as an editor, so i didn't consider that)
[00:20] <Nick_Meister> i booted the pc up with a live cd
[00:20] <phuzion> Well, I don't mind separating SVN and editing
[00:20] <sprinkmeier_> Nick_Meister, can you still boot into 'recovery mode' from GRUB? BTW, what's LUK?
[00:20] <Nick_Meister> but i am clueless how to fix this
[00:20] <phuzion> So, if there's stuff that works easily like that, then that rules
[00:20] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, only into live cd all the options give me that error
[00:20] <LjL> phuzion: on KDE, it's in kdesdk-kio-plugins. on GNOME let me look
[00:21] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, Linux Unified Kernel
[00:21] <phuzion> ok
[00:21] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Unified_Kernel
[00:21] <LjL> phuzion: actually on GNOME i can't find one.
[00:21] <zcat[1]> anyone else use partimage? It segfaults here every time; usually I end up booting to the insert live CD to use it but that's a pain. I should be able to use in under ubuntu
[00:21] <phuzion> Damn
[00:21] <bruce89> phuzion: not really
[00:22] <LjL> phuzion: of course there's a few frontends (that don't act as a "shell extension")
[00:22] <Nick_Meister> i guess thats what i get for messing around with chinese software :S\
[00:22] <m3gaman> When my machine boots now I have like 4 different ubuntu options....just wondering how come...http://paste.ubuntu.com/128536/
[00:22] <trino> hiredgoon: how can i manually change something linke "system - preferences - keyboard: layout options - third level choosers"?
[00:22] <phuzion> Hmm, what would a couple of those be, LjL ?
[00:22] <divXjunk> hi ppl
[00:22] <Nick_Meister> any ideas?
[00:22] <trino> sry, its for all of you not only hiredgoon ;)
[00:22] <sprinkmeier_> Nick_Meister, AFAICT LUK isn't a ubuntu thing, this might not be the best forum to get help.
[00:23] <LjL> phuzion: just "apt-cache search svn client" and "apt-cache search subversion client", you'll find a lot (possibly also "subversion frontend" or "subversion gui", haven't tried those yet)
[00:23] <ubersoldat> m3gaman, those are different kernel versions... don't worry, just boot with the latest
[00:23] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, yes i understand but its so fresh that there isnt an english community it just got released in english this past month
[00:23] <bruce89> haven't seen any
[00:23] <sprinkmeier_> Nick_Meister, [b]leading edge stuff :-)
[00:23] <bruce89> subversion frontends that is
[00:24] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, this is the last place i can look
[00:24] <LjL> phuzion: rapidsvn, esvn, subcommander, svn-workbench...
[00:24] <divXjunk> i changed my pc's hostname in /etc/hostname... now everytime i  use 'sudo commands' it says: 'unable to resolve host <new host name>'??
[00:24] <SuperMoops> Does anyone know anything to copy DVDs to AVI?
[00:24] <divXjunk> any thoughts
[00:24] <phuzion> I'm gonna check out rapidsvn, just to see what its like
[00:24] <LjL> phuzion: and then kdesvn but that's kde again.
[00:24] <SuperMoops> I can't figure out how to work dvd::rip
[00:24] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, i ve been googling for a very long time on this, this is literraly my last resort
[00:24] <m3gaman> ubersoldat: ok, so...I guess my next question would be is there a way to get rid of the older version? or is this something that happens when you upgrade?? because I only did the install like 2 days ago so...just trying to understand why there are 2 different kernel version now...thanks
[00:24] <phuzion> LjL, right, I'd prefer to stick with Gnome, if at all possible
[00:24] <sprinkmeier_> SuperMoops, thoggen does DVD->ogg
[00:24] <ubersoldat> SuPeRhAm, AcidRips
[00:25] <bruce89> phuzion: there is no GNOME frontend
[00:25] <zcat[1]> SuperMoops: try k9copy it's a lot more simple
[00:25] <LjL> phuzion: none of those i listed seems to be *strictly* GNOME. a couple should be GTK though.
[00:25] <SuperMoops> zcat[1], k9copy runs slower than I don't know what
[00:25] <bruce89> I've written my own copy script
[00:25] <ubersoldat> m3gaman, sure, probably they will dissapear eventually by aptitude's magic
[00:25] <sprinkmeier_> Nick_Meister, never heard of LUK before today, without sitting in front of it and potentially breaking it even more I wouldn't even know where to begin. Sorry.
[00:25] <SuperMoops> sprinkmeier_, Yes, but it doesn't make it in to ONE file
[00:25] <phuzion> LjL, all I really care about is that it works, lol
[00:25] <zcat[1]> SuperMoops: weird. it's lightening fast on my 1.6ghz lappy..
[00:26] <ubersoldat> m3gaman, anyway, those kernels won't bother you and they just use like 25MB of disk
[00:26] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, well can we begin with fixing the grub?
[00:26] <SuperMoops> Hm, I'm on a p4 1.8 dual core
[00:26] <m3gaman> ubersoldat: ok I won't worry about it...thanks for the help
[00:26] <sprinkmeier_> SuperMoops, Fair enough. It does what I need, just thought I'd mention it in case it might help.
[00:26] <failers_> does gnome have some widget app, somewhat like the kde 4 so i can add weather , cpu usage etc on the desktop
[00:26] <bruce89> not really
[00:26] <ubersoldat> failers, gdesklets
[00:26] <failers_> ubersoldat: ok
[00:26] <bruce89> !tab | ubersoldat
[00:27] <ubersoldat> failers, also checkout AWN
[00:27] <ubersoldat> failers, pretty cool
[00:27] <phuzion> LjL, rapidsvn seems to do what I want.  Thanks a bunch!
[00:27] <sprinkmeier_> Nick_Meister, pastebin grub config file?If LUK do3esn't even get past GRUB then maybe it isn't ripe enough to try.
[00:27] <ubersoldat> failers, and has simple widgets
[00:27] <failers_> ubersoldat: oki
[00:27] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, unfortunately i cant even load the old kernel
[00:27] <bruce89> gadgets
[00:28] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, it busted everything
[00:28] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, well first where do i find it and whats the pastebin command cause all i have is live distro
[00:28] <sprinkmeier_> !grub | Nick_Meister
[00:28] <sprinkmeier_> ~paste |  Nick_Meister
[00:29] <bruce89> !paste | Nick_Meister
[00:29] <zcat[1]> ok, any alternatives to partimage. NOT g4u or dd if=/dev/hda or crap ike that though, stuff that's actually filesystem-aware
[00:29] <sprinkmeier_> Nick_Meister, on ubuntu is lives in /boot/grub/menu.lst. Other distros hide it in other places, YMMV
[00:29]  * bruce89 wonders what's wrong with dd
[00:30] <genii> bruce89: Absolutely nothing
[00:30] <bruce89> zcat[1]: tar
[00:30] <zcat[1]> bruce89: I don't want a 40G image, I only want the 3G of files on there
[00:30] <Makuseru> Do i need a special package to edit m4a files?
[00:30] <SuperMoops> gah,
[00:30] <bruce89> !m4a
[00:30] <SuperMoops> connection went out
[00:30] <zcat[1]> bruce89: and it's a windows partition, tar doesn't preserve any of th ownership etc
[00:30] <SuperMoops> anyway, k9copy doesn't run good for me
[00:31] <bruce89> zcat[1]: dd and gzip
[00:31] <sprinkmeier_> zcat[1], gzip it. If the disk was formerly empty it'ss compress _really_ well
[00:31] <LjL> phuzion: you might also want to keep an eye (perhaps in the form of an RSS feed from http://packages.ubuntu.com) in case this http://naughtysvn.tigris.org/ or this http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php/GnubVersion get some time included into Ubuntu
[00:31] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/128544/
[00:31] <zcat[1]> the disk wasn't formerly empty
[00:31] <phuzion> LjL, Thanks, I'll do that
[00:32] <LjL> phuzion: both are what you were looking for - i.e. similarly to Tortoise, they integrate into Nautilus
[00:32] <SuperMoops> and I can't figure out how to work DVD::RIP or to make thoggen/acidrip make ONE file
[00:32] <bruce89> phuzion: nothing too difficult about compiling it if you wanted to
[00:32] <brunner> Intrepid should work fine with 2.6.18, right?
[00:32] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, did you get it?
[00:32] <zcat[1]> OK, any clues why partimage consistently segfaults in recent ubuntus, it worked on older ones and it still works off a recent insert
[00:32] <brunner> What's the earliest kernel that Intrepid will work with?
[00:32] <rconan> any way to install something with apt-get but have autoremove think it's unecesarry?
[00:32] <sprinkmeier_> Nick_Meister, "root=UUID=d2fc1bf6-7916-45cc-b0fe-7e81c06b1bc9" means it's trying to find partition by UUID. Could this have changed? boot off lice CD and run 'sudo blkid /dev/sd[ab]*'
[00:32] <phuzion> bruce89, my biggest concern with compiling my own software is compatibility issues down the road.  Suppose Nautilus gets an update and it messes with the interfacing between naughtsvn and itself, then I have go in and troubleshoot it and such.
[00:33] <sprinkmeier_> s/lice/live/ debugging tool. freudian slip?
[00:33] <silentContender> genii, sorry had to go.  Just look at the link you gave me.  It's similar to my case.
[00:33] <shally87> ﻿hi i want to ask..is it possible to built a dns server when i have a dynamic ip?
[00:33] <bruce89> phuzion: that's also a problem with packages
[00:33] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, ran it nothing happened
[00:33] <failers_> hmm anyone else using irssi
[00:34] <LjL> shally87: not one that the rest of the internet will really be able to use
[00:34] <jrib> failers_: best to just ask your question
[00:34] <phuzion> bruce89, true, but the things that are in the repositories generally stay maintained and up to date with other Ubuntu packages.
[00:34] <failers_> well i got graphical bugs in it
[00:34] <sprinkmeier_> Nick_Meister, OK... /dev/sd[ab]* assumes SATA disks. try /dev/hd* for IDE?
[00:34] <failers_> sometimes it gets 1 line behind
[00:34] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, its a SATA
[00:34] <failers_> and i have to move the window to get it "updated"
[00:34] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, its a laptop
[00:35] <GB1> Where to downloads Ubuntu 9.4 beta
[00:35] <sprinkmeier_> Nick_Meister, pastebin 'sudo fdisk -l'
[00:35] <shally87> LjL i dont get it
[00:35] <silentContender> Does someone know how to fix getty?
[00:35] <SuperMoops> I have about 77 Tracks to this one DVD, small tracks
[00:35] <genii> silentContender: There seems from here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1058964   a guy who solved it due to no .bashrc in the users dir, he copied a template one over and chowned it. Your mileage may vary
[00:35] <bruce89> phuzion: not unless upstream stops maintaining it
[00:35] <SuperMoops> and each one wants to make a separate AVI for each track.
[00:35] <LjL> shally87: what don't you get? i'm simply saying that nobody except you would be able to connect to your DNS server, if its very IP changes over time.
[00:35] <SuperMoops> (or ogv)
[00:36] <SuperMoops> Also, Acidrip wont let me do but 1 track at a time.
[00:36] <shally87> LjL: owh..si i just can use a dynamic dns that aleady built out side is it? is there other way to use the dns sever =?
[00:36] <Stinky> SuperMoops: try dvd::rip
[00:36] <bruce89> heh
[00:36] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/128546
[00:36] <LjL> shally87: now *i* don't get you.
[00:36] <SuperMoops> Stinky, How do you work it ?
[00:37] <Stinky> About the same as the others.  Configure, point, wait.  It's in the repos
[00:37] <ubersoldat> SuperMoops, I think you should get an idea of codecs and containers
[00:38] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, seems it does have sda
[00:38] <SuperMoops> I create a "project" , choose the DVD image, then what?
[00:38] <ubersoldat> there's nothing wrong with the software
[00:38] <SuperMoops> ubersoldat, ?
[00:38] <shally87> LjL: ﻿i just can use a dynamic dns that already built out side is it(dyndns,everydns,no-ip)? is there other way to use my own dns sever with a dynamic ip?
[00:38] <silentContender> genii, no mileage
[00:38] <failers_> my irssi keeps failing and be 1 line behind when i compare it to my windows irc next to me on the other comp and i have to move the console window to get it "updated" or just wait until someone else writes a new line and the line that didnt exist appears
[00:39] <SuperMoops> Stinky, after the DVD is loaded, what do I do ?
[00:39] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, so what do you think?
[00:39] <sprinkmeier_> Nick_, 'sudo blkid /dev/sda*' should have worked then. argh... [ab] is a bach-ism...
[00:39] <SuperMoops> I see, there is a RIP button in the DVD table of contents
[00:39] <ubersoldat> http://www.ehow.com/how_2046915_rip-dvds-linux-acidrip.html
[00:39] <sprinkmeier_> Nick_Meister, 'sudo blkid /dev/sda*' should have worked then. argh... [ab] is a bash-ism, might not work on your shell.
[00:40] <bruce89> dash is the default /bin/sh
[00:40] <Stinky> SuperMoops: Edit preferences, install anything that's missing, start project, point at dvd
[00:40] <LjL> shally87: if what you do to do is to have your site listed on DNS, then just use dyndns & friends. if you want to set up your own public DNS server, there is no way on a dynamic IP
[00:41] <sprinkmeier_> Nick_Meister, anyway... try 'sudo blkid /dev/sda*' and verify that the UUID matches
[00:41] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, http://paste.ubuntu.com/128550/
[00:41] <emma> How do you send the audio that's going to your speakers directly to the microphone, even if you have no actual microphone.
[00:41] <emma> what im asking is, how do you accomplish the same thing, internally, as if you put a physical microphone next to your speakers.
[00:41] <shally87> LjL: ok..thanks
[00:42] <SuperMoops> xine is the only thing missing
[00:42] <ubersoldat> emma, your mic should be on a dev
[00:42] <silentContender> How do I repair getty?  I can't log in
[00:42] <sprinkmeier_> Nick_, /dev/sda1 matches... sorry, I'm out of ideas at this stage.
[00:43] <emma> ubersoldat: huh?
[00:43] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, :*(
[00:43] <ubersoldat> emma, your speakers are at /dev/dsp
[00:43] <ubersoldat> emma, sort of
[00:44] <ubersoldat> emma, and your mic is probable at /dev/audio
[00:44] <SuperMoops> Warning: diskspace is low. This task needs about 418669 MB, but only 65246 MB are available.Do you want to continue anyway?
[00:44] <SuperMoops> what in the world ?
[00:44] <emma> yeah im not sure how to use that fact to further the goal in my question.
[00:44] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, well i cant just reinstall the whole thing
[00:44] <SuperMoops> That's what I get when I try to rip the selected titles
[00:44] <SuperMoops> (and chapters)
[00:44] <Nick_Meister> sprinkmeier_, any way to just reinstall grub and make it reconfig itself automatically?
[00:44] <emma> ubersoldat: so do you cat /dev/dsp | /dev/audio
[00:44] <emma> ?
[00:45] <bruce89> SuperMoops: why do you have to have one file per disk?
[00:46] <bruce89> disc even
[00:46] <ubersoldat> emma, I would use > instead of |
[00:46] <sprinkmeier_> !grub | Nick_Meister
[00:46] <emma> i'll see what that does at least.
[00:46] <ubersoldat> emma, that could work
[00:46] <SuperMoops> bruce89, I want to rip it in to one avi.  not a whole package of them, and why in the world would it be trying to use that much space?
[00:46] <bruce89> something's misconfigured, but that's a complex program anyway
[00:47] <emma> it said that /dev/audio is busy
[00:47] <ubersoldat> SuperMoops, maybe you could use mencoder directly
[00:47] <bruce89> or gst-launch
[00:47] <SuperMoops> Would I be able to use Avidemux for this ?
[00:47] <silentContender> genii, when I run "login" in the recovery console and enter user/pass, I get "Segmentation fault"
[00:47] <bruce89> nope
[00:47] <ubersoldat> emma, then I'm out ideas
[00:48] <emma> what i want to do is direct the audio that's coming out of my speakers (say when im listening to music) directly back into the mic, so that i could have friends with voip hear it too
[00:48] <genii> silentContender: Yeah, thats serious. Maybe the partition containing /home is bad
[00:48] <emma> I'm not sure how to search for this on google or the forums
[00:48] <emma> what is it called what I'm trying to do?
[00:48] <genii> silentContender: (if it's on a  separate drive/partition)
[00:49] <silentContender> genii, I only have one partition
[00:49] <emma> (insanity?)
[00:49] <ubersoldat> probably
[00:49] <genii> silentContender: Have you fsck the drive recently?
[00:49] <silentContender> genii, Yes
[00:49] <ubersoldat> because the device is being used
[00:49] <bruce89> Supermoopies: http://paste.ubuntu.com/128551/
[00:49] <emma> i don't need the device to be used.
[00:49] <bruce89> thought that only does one title too
[00:50] <genii> silentContender: Have you run memtest recently on your ram?
[00:50] <emma> i want to direct the audio that's going to my speakers into the mic
[00:50] <emma> ideally so i can still hear it in my speakers too.
[00:50] <aihua> hi, can anybody tell me how to use XChat to log into a different IRC chat area, this is my first time using Xchat, and it automatically brought me here, but I want to go to the Gnome-shell chat area.
[00:50] <bruce89> aihua: connect to gimpnet
[00:50] <emma> aihua: /join #channel
[00:50] <DIFH-iceroot> aihua: /join channelname
[00:51] <emma> aihua: you need to put a # before the channel name
[00:51] <ubersoldat> gnome-shell?
[00:51] <bruce89> please, the gnome irc channels are not on Freenode
[00:51] <emma> but there is no channel on Freenode called #gnome-shell
[00:51] <Cige> how do you empty the trash on a USB drive without unmounting it?
[00:51] <Flannel> emma: you're looking for audio loopback.
[00:51] <silentContender> genii, tried reinstalling login without success
[00:52] <emma> Flannel: okay this sounds promising.
[00:52] <ubersoldat> aihua, your question is going to be about Bash, so...
[00:52] <shally87> maybe a help in #vmware
[00:52] <shally87> soy
[00:52] <shally87> sorry
[00:52] <aihua> I am really new to this.  I have the server name and the password (beginning with the #) but don't know where to enter them to change chat rooms.  this is my first time using IRC
[00:52] <silentContender> genii, I have not ran a memtest
[00:52] <lstarnes> aihua: /join #other-channel
[00:52] <genii> silentContender: Have you tried making a new user and logging in that name?
[00:53] <Supermoopies> I tried k9copy , put a check in the first checkbox, clicked "make MP4" and bye bye baby after that (crashed?)
[00:53] <silentContender> genii, I have tried a new user too
[00:53] <bruce89> aihua: irc://irc.gnome.org/#gnome-shell
[00:53] <failers_> does compiz have any known graphical bugs with newest nvidia driver?
[00:54] <bruce89> Supermoopies: there's a bug making k9copy useless
[00:54] <genii> silentContender: I have nothing more to suggest at this time then, other than perhaps memtest on offchance your ram is possibly to blame
[00:55] <aihua> bruce89, thanks.  that is what I have, I just don't know how to use it to get into a new room.  In Xchat, what menu should I enter to input what you just listed?
[00:55] <silentContender> genii, running it now
[00:55] <Supermoopies> Is there any alternatives to that besides DVDShrink ?
[00:55] <bruce89> aihua: AFAIK you just click it
[00:55] <emma> aihua: go to networks, scroll down the list till you find gnome
[00:55] <aihua> Bruce89 & emma: thanks, i will try now
[00:55] <emma> aihua: then click on connect and once on the gnome irc network type /join #your-channel
[00:56] <bruce89> #gnome-shell to be precise
[00:56] <rutski> libgtk2.0-0-dbg; how the heck am I supposed to use that package?
[00:56] <bruce89> aihua: be aware there are very few people there
[00:56] <rutski> when I install libc6-dbg it puts a libc.so.6 into /usr/lib/debug
[00:56] <rutski> so that I can just point my LD_LIBARARY_PATH to /usr/lib/debug and I'm all set
[00:57] <rutski> but libgtk2.0-0-dbg does no such thing
[00:57] <rutski> so what the heck am I supposed to do?
[00:57] <lstarnes> rutski: try running the program in gdb
[00:57] <ubersoldat> yeah, good luck with that
[00:57] <rutski> lstarnes: I do, it just loads the non-dbg version of libgtk; as I can see when I ask gdb to do an "info sharedlibraries"
[00:57] <sauce> hello
[00:57] <ubersoldat> "dude, learn to use a debugger, it's easy!"
[00:58] <Dreamglider> i resized my swap partition a day ago. i have rebooted a couple of times no problem, but when i want to hibernate it does not work, the system comes back on as if i just locked the screen
[00:58] <sauce> does anyone know how to get a broadcom 802.11g/b working on xubuntu?
[00:58] <crdlb> rutski: afaik, gdb automatically looks in /usr/lib/debug for debugging symbols; you are not supposed to use LD_LIBRARY_PATH
[00:58] <phuzion> sauce, its usually a matter of finding the Windows driver, and installing it using ndisgtk
[00:58] <rutski> crdlb: ah, interesting
[00:58] <spill> anyone know how to set a laptop display to start up at full brightness, in Hardy my laptop boots with the screen on the dimmest setting.
[00:58] <Nick_Meister> guys please help me solve GRUB error 11
[00:58] <rutski> crdlb: either way though, the debug lib isn't there! even though I installed the package
[00:58] <sauce> which windows driver? im a noob with linux really
[00:58] <bruce89> Dreamglider: what's the new size?
[00:59] <sauce> i have some windows drivers
[00:59] <verma_ii> hello, everyone, I cannot get my mp3s to work in rhythmbox, I have installed the package: ubuntu-restricted-extras .. but still whenever I add a new folder it says MIME type no recognized
[00:59] <Dreamglider> bruce89: it's 3Gb
[00:59] <Out_Cold> is there a way to have fsck not "resolve=UUID**"?  I have an encrypted drive which fsck doesn't recognize and it pretty much halts my start-up
[00:59] <crdlb> !ddebs | rutski
[00:59] <crdlb> you could try those
[00:59] <bruce89> Dreamglider: sorry, misunderstood the problem
[00:59] <TheManInDboX> NooB here, MCSE, gone linux... hate windows vista+ so i thought id go here anyone know how to do the Ubuntu wii setup... im having issues with blue tooth.. could use some help
[00:59] <sauce> what is the correct way to use ndisgtk?
[01:00] <rutski> oh, heh
[01:00] <bruce89> !wii
[01:00] <kitche> sauce: umm ndisgtk brings up a gui
[01:00] <spill> anyone know how to set a laptop display to start up at full brightness, in Hardy my laptop boots with the screen on the dimmest setting.
[01:00] <rutski> crdlb: it still bothers me that the ubuntu devs would put such a broken unusable dbg package in the repo
[01:01] <sauce> how do i log into root on terminal? when i try to apt get ndisgtk it says permission denied
[01:01] <bigrigger> Out_Cold: in /etc/fstab put 0  0  at the end of that drive's line instead of 0 1
[01:01] <jrib> !sudo | sauce
[01:01] <ubersoldat> spill, maybe it's an energy setting configuration
[01:01] <jrib> !wireless > sauce
[01:01] <failers_> can some one highlight me and failers just testing
[01:01] <jrib> failers_: no, do that somewhere else
[01:01] <trino> how can i manually change something linke "system - preferences - keyboard: layout options - third level choosers"? (without xmodmap)
[01:01] <failers_> jrib: you just did it thx
[01:01] <rconan> anyone got any experience compiling something autotools based with "-m32" to get a 32-bit library?
[01:02] <bruce89> rutski: looks fine to me - http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/i386/libgtk2.0-0-dbg/filelist
[01:02] <TheManInDboX> ..i use WMIGui and can use the command line to get the mac of the wii mote.. but i cant seem to get the wii mote to be seen in the gui... any thoughts?
[01:02] <spill> ubersoldat: dosent seemed to make a difference no matter what I change in the settings
[01:02] <Out_Cold> bigrigger, thanks! is there any way for fsck to check the drive without unencrypting it you think?
[01:02] <TheManInDboX> i heard that i might need a laser pointer ... anyone know
[01:02] <bigrigger> Out_Cold: no idea
[01:02] <Hayloe> =/ can someone help? I didnt press eject before removing my External Hard Drive and now it wont mount again >.<
[01:02] <kitche> Hayloe: umount the device
[01:03] <Out_Cold> well thanks for the help mate
[01:03] <rutski> bruce89: where do you see the /usr/lib/debug/libgtk* files? because I don't
[01:03] <Hayloe> how would I do that through terminal?
[01:03] <kitche> Hayloe: if that does not work then you could have did some odd stuff to that drive
[01:03] <kitche> Hayloe: umount <place it mounted to>
[01:04] <corey> how do I use an external monitor on my laptop? I do have it connected through vga.
[01:04] <bruce89> rutski: /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.1400.4
[01:04] <rutski> bruce89: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/i386/libc6-dbg/filelist note how the libc6-dbg package installs /usr/lib/debug/libc6.so.6
[01:04] <rutski> bruce89: nope, that's no good; the linker doesn't see that
[01:04] <bruce89> oh, there's an extra /usr
[01:04] <corey> how do I use an external monitor on my laptop? I do have it connected through vga.
[01:04] <rutski> just try to get ld.so to load that debug lib into a program that links against libgtk; you won't be able to do it
[01:05] <TheManInDboX> Ok OK better one, how to use the Root account and set it so i dont have to sudo anything?
[01:05] <rconan> anyone got any experience compiling something autotools based with "-m32" to get a 32-bit library on a 64-bit system?
[01:05] <Hayloe> how can I tell where my HDD is mounted to?
[01:05] <ubersoldat> corey, how about pressing "Fn+F5" or something like that?
[01:05] <jrib> !sudo > TheManInDboX
[01:05] <ubersoldat> Hayloe, df
[01:06] <bruce89> rutski: I see (sort of)
[01:06] <corey> ubersoldat: No luck. There is a blue icon on the F5 that looks like it should work
[01:06] <bruce89> !debug
[01:06] <rutski> bruce89: yea :(
[01:06] <Dreamglider> corey: try system > pref > Screen res
[01:06] <ubersoldat> corey, try rebooting with the monitor connected
[01:06] <rutski> it's supposed to create symlinks like libgtk-x11-2.0-2.0.so.0
[01:06] <rutski> because that's the name that gets embedded into executables linking against libgtk
[01:07] <rutski> the libc6-dbg package makes such symlinks
[01:07] <Hayloe> =/ its not mounted right now, I get an error "cannot mount volume" it is NTFS and it was mounting before I unplugged it without pressing eject
[01:07] <rutski> libgtk2.0-0-dbg does not :(
[01:07] <TheManInDboX> Ok last one, anyone know of a program that i can use to run Viso documents?
[01:07] <Brad777> Hello I am having some troubel with my sound applications (ie. rhythmbox, amarok, gtkpod) when i plug in my ipod it makes them crash... with a Bus error and I don't know what that means can anyone help me?
[01:07] <corey> ubersoldat: ctrl alt backspace?
[01:07] <TheManInDboX> Visio*
[01:07] <DIFH-iceroot> TheManInDboX: visio, inkscape (*.svg)
[01:08] <Dreamglider> Hayloe: mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/sda1/ -o force
[01:08] <jiggles> Hi all, does anyone know what should i use to expand a VM that's operating from 2 .qcow2 images?
[01:08] <failers_> how do i force performance level 5 in powermizer?
[01:08] <Hayloe> thank you very much Dreamglider
[01:08] <bohemian_> hello everyone
[01:08] <Dreamglider> Hayloe: np
[01:09] <Dreamglider> Hayloe: it worked ?
[01:09] <bruce89> rutski: no bugs in either Debian or Ubuntu bug tracker
[01:09] <rutski> bruce89: :(
[01:09] <bohemian_> if I have the stock installation of Ubuntu 8.10, what driver version do I need from this version?
[01:09] <bohemian_> http://www.touchkit.com/LinuxDriver.htm
[01:09] <rutski> I'm not surprised; I still suspect that there might be something I'm missing here
[01:09] <Brad777> Hello I am having some troubel with my sound applications (ie. rhythmbox, amarok, gtkpod) when i plug in my ipod it makes them crash... with a Bus error and I don't know what that means can anyone help me?
[01:09] <rutski> I'm looking into how other distros do this
[01:10] <corey> soldat: i didnt work
[01:10] <corey> soldat: it
[01:10] <TheManInDboX> DIFH what is *.svg
[01:11] <bohemian_> X server says I'm using X
[01:11] <kindofabuzz> any one know that site that is kind of like a digg for command line snippets? i can't remember what it was
[01:11] <bruce89> rutski: The libraries are installed in /usr/lib/debug and can be used by placing that directory in LD_LIBRARY_PATH is what the description says
[01:11] <rutski> bruce89: hmm... well the fact is that the libraries are _not_ installed there :-/
[01:11] <rutski> sounds like I should file a bug
[01:11] <bruce89> TheManInDboX: Scalable Vector Graphics
[01:12] <TheManInDboX> Bruce, how would i change a visio file into that format to run in on linux
[01:12] <kindofabuzz> nvm, found it: http://www.commandlinefu.com
[01:12] <DIFH-iceroot> TheManInDboX: you can save files with visio to svg-format
[01:13] <bohemian_> X server says I'm using X org 1.5.0
[01:14] <TheManInDboX> DiFH but if a file is emailed to me in a visio format how would i open it? I really dont want to use wine and office but it is looking that way... I know i can modify the dll's in IE and run it on Ubuntu to run the Visio files...
[01:14] <TheManInDboX> but i really dont want to go back to windows
[01:14] <natnayr> hell no one wants to
[01:14] <natnayr> lol
[01:14] <natnayr> but windows 7 seems kinda cool
[01:15] <natnayr> linux like
[01:15] <TheManInDboX> 7 sucks
[01:15] <natnayr> how bad issit?
[01:15] <bruce89> !stop
[01:15] <natnayr> improved from vista?
[01:15] <natnayr> yes bot
[01:15] <TheManInDboX> 7 is server 2k8 minus the server services
[01:15] <Nick_Meister> I need help with broken grub
[01:15] <Brad777> Hello I am having some troubel with my sound applications (ie. rhythmbox, amarok, gtkpod) when i plug in my ipod it makes them crash... with a Bus error and I don't know what that means can anyone help me?
[01:16] <Rodrigo_Lopes> Brad777, please post the error message.
[01:16] <TheManInDboX> Its better then vista... Or the word i cant say, but it still has issues... I would recomend Linux based OS's over that any day..
[01:16] <unperson> Hi.  I just moved my ubuntu install to a new HD (same computer).  I've gone through the instructions on "Backup, Repairing and Reinstalling GRUB" here:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto#GUI    and I've updated my /etc/fstab.  Have I forgotten anything I need to do before I boot from my new HD?
[01:16]  * sdasdas se ausenta un rato
[01:16] <bruce89> TheManInDboX: I'm afraid if you're stuck with MS formats, you need to use MS programs
[01:17] <TheManInDboX> installing windows vista or 7, your better off tossing your machine off a bridge
[01:17] <bruce89> !ot
[01:17] <bruce89> or perhaps go to #rant
[01:17] <TheManInDboX> take it easy all thanks for the help with root and visio
[01:18] <bruce89> I suppose, I just don't want to see a flamewar
[01:18] <aihua> Emma or Bruce 89, when I click on irc.gnome.org and then press "connect," nothing happens.  I just get a "none" (in my language) where the server list is to the left.  doesn't seem to give me a chance to enter any #chat room
[01:19] <unperson> Seems like fixing grub and fstab is all I'd need to do.
[01:19] <Rodrigo_Lopes> Bruce, flamewars is need any times...
[01:19] <bruce89> only in #rant
[01:20] <unperson> I'm hoping those instructions are everything I'd need to do to fix grub appropriately.  I haven't messed much with grub in my time.
[01:20] <bruce89> aihua: there should be a network list somewhere
[01:20] <bruce89> aihua: select GIMPNet
[01:20] <Bruce> i am having hell of a time with the keyboard shortcuts
[01:21] <Bruce> i have set in preferences, keyboard short cuts..
[01:21] <Bruce> but when i press next-track for vlc player, it wont do it
[01:21] <Brad777> Rodrigo_Lopes: Bus error
[01:21] <pl> how do i enable wireless / auto eth0?
[01:21] <Bruce> any help on this?
[01:21] <aihua> @bruce: there is an irc.gnome.org on the network list, and when I click on in and press connect, nothing happens.  I will try GIMPnet now
[01:21] <bohemian_> what kernel and X version is an stock Ubuntu 8.10 uses?

[01:23] <Brad777> Rodrigo_Lopes: that is all it says "Bus error"
[01:24] <ricardo1> help i changed vipw by mistake
[01:24] <bruce89> bohemian_: ^
[01:25] <bohemian_> thanks bruce89
[01:25] <aihua> Bruce89: it worked! but how am I able to see a chatroom for irc.gnome.org's server via GIMPnet?
[01:25] <nanex> Guys I need some help with Apache2. Just installed a fresh copy of Ubuntu 8.10 to test this. With nothing in .htaccess, if I type localhost/index.php or localhost/index (without the .php extension) I'm taken to the same page. I'm not doing any rewriting yet. Anyone know why this is?
[01:26] <ricardo1> i changed vipw by mistake what can i do?
[01:26] <bruce89> aihua: same network
[01:26] <akgraner> #ubuntu-women
[01:26] <akgraner> oops
[01:26] <LjL> ricardo1: changed like what?
[01:26] <LjL> akgraner: they'll hate you for that.
[01:26] <r6h4k3r> moi
[01:26] <aihua> Bruce89: that's great.  i don't know how this vudoo works, but it does so thanks!
[01:26] <ricardo1> LjL: i deleted some entries
[01:26] <LjL> ricardo1: like your user?
[01:27] <ricardo1> maybe
[01:27] <ricardo1> i dont know what i deleted
[01:27] <ricardo1> how can i restore it
[01:28] <ricardo1> LjL: can you help me please?
[01:28] <ricardo1> what should i do?
[01:28] <DIFH-iceroot> ricardo1: what is vipw?
[01:29] <LjL> ricardo1: i can't help you restore it if i don't know what changed, since i don't believe vipw makes a backup. can you currently log in?
[01:29] <ricardo1> DIFH-iceroot: an administrator for the passwd and shadow password files
[01:30] <LjL> also known as "something you really shouldn't be using unless you know what you're doing extremely well"
[01:30] <ricardo1> LjL i am logged in
[01:30] <ricardo1> yes LjL i did a mistake
[01:30] <ricardo1> I still logged off
[01:30] <LjL> ricardo1: ok, but can you *still* login? (DON'T log out, just see if you can make a further login)
[01:30] <Iceman_B^Ltop> ?
[01:30] <unmonkey> Ubuntu install today
[01:30] <ricardo1> LjL how can i do that?
[01:30] <unmonkey> box is freezing, likewise capslock and scroll lock light are blinking
[01:31] <ricardo1> how can i know if i can make a further login?
[01:31] <LjL> ricardo1: just ctrl+alt+f2 and login, then ctrl+alt+f7 to go back to X
[01:32] <DIFH-iceroot> ext3 = ext2 + journal? or are there any other differences too?
[01:32] <fireun> why would firefox/flash randomly break, and only play video for a few seconds, then loop audio?
[01:32] <bruce89> DIFH-iceroot: htrees too
[01:33] <DIFH-iceroot> bruce89: ok, thanks
[01:33] <matt_keys> I'm still having iptables/route problems and not sure which it is. Can someone take a look? :http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-networking-3/routingiptables-problem-710040/#post3468919
[01:33] <raylu> unmonkey: that's a kernel panic. congrats
[01:34] <unmonkey> yay?
[01:34] <unmonkey> soo, how do I figure out what's causing it? Cause its happening fairly regularly
[01:34] <ricardo1> LjL: i could do that
[01:34] <LjL> unmonkey: could be a lot of things, you should check the logs in /var/log. start by typing "dmesg".
[01:34] <cHiOs> boot from ubuntu cd and look for log files
[01:35] <Rodrigo_Lopes> fireun, do you now a your flash version???
[01:35] <LjL> ricardo1: ok, so can you pastebin your current /etc/passwd? (it doesn't really contain passwords as i think you know)
[01:35] <unmonkey> I've been mounting devices by hand
[01:35] <LjL> ricardo1: it does give out to us the usernames on your system, though
[01:35] <ricardo1> ok
[01:36] <fireun> Rodrigo_Lopes: uh, no - 10 something
[01:36] <LjL> unmonkey: that shouldn't cause issues normally.
[01:37] <unmonkey> k, i'll reload it and see what's going on; be back with logs. thx
[01:37] <gabriel> Hello everyone
[01:37] <bruce89> !hi > gabriel
[01:38] <LjL> bruce89: that's a bit, err... superfluous? =)
[01:38] <gabriel> I have a question, how can you protect the file system in ubuntu? I mean, so nobody can modify it or delete files
[01:38] <bruce89> just wondered
[01:38] <dioms> chmod?
[01:38] <bruce89> gabriel: why would you?
[01:39] <LjL> gabriel: nobody can modify or delete files in the root hierarchy (of course they *can* if they have physical access to the machine - just use a boot CD or anything).
[01:39] <Rodrigo_Lopes> gabriel, How??
[01:39] <gabriel> I have seen that in windows you can protect the hard drive so nobody can delete files from it
[01:39] <LjL> gabriel: as for the home directories, that depends on how they're setup, i'm not sure whether current ubuntu versions set them for no access by others
[01:39] <raylu> gabriel: like bitlocker? there's cryptfs
[01:39] <LjL> anyone can always delete your files if they have physical access to your machine.
[01:39] <ricardo1> LjL can i send you it by private?
[01:39] <bruce89> gabriel: that will break upgrades
[01:40] <gabriel> ok, something like that raylu
[01:40] <raylu> gabriel: but that doesn't prevent people from deleting - what LjL said
[01:40] <bruce89> !paste | ricardo1
[01:40] <gabriel> how can i secure my system then?
[01:40] <LjL> gabriel: you can't. no system is "secure".
[01:40] <Rodrigo_Lopes> gabriel,  the /home/user the "user" can change.. but /usr  /bin  and anothers directoryes only with administrator password...
[01:40] <tsuna27> where does ubuntu keep the firefox temp videos
[01:40] <bruce89> gabriel: for which purpose?
[01:40] <LjL> gabriel: ask exactly what you want to achieve, and we'll tell you whether it's possible.
[01:40] <LjL> or if not, why.
[01:41] <bruce89> tsuna27: ~/.mozilla likely
[01:41] <gabriel> for network purposes
[01:41] <fireun> tsuna27: there are tools to do that for you
[01:41] <LjL> gabriel: ubuntu is relatively secure without doing anything special, with regard to network attacks.
[01:41] <ricardo1> ok thank you
[01:41] <raylu> gabriel: unless you install new, insecure services or compromise your existing ones, no one without your password  will be able to delete files over the network
[01:42] <ricardo1> http://paste.ubuntu.com/128560/
[01:42] <LjL> gabriel: you could always set up a firewall if you're not behind a router, or if you're paran - i mean concerned about security.
[01:42] <LjL> !firewall > gabriel    (gabriel, see the private message from ubottu)
[01:42] <gabriel> ok, thank you for your answer raylu
[01:42] <Siegfried> Does anybody have a workaround for the flashplugin-nonfree license (apt & wget) problem in jaunty?
[01:42] <bruce89> ricardo1: surely just remove those 'A's and 'B's
[01:42] <jrib> !jaunty | Siegfried
[01:43] <ricardo1> yes thank you bruce89 what else can i do?
[01:43] <Siegfried> thanks jrib and sorry
[01:43] <swegner> Siegfried: http://is.gd/msg4
[01:43] <bruce89> ricardo1: AFAIK, that's all that is wrong there
[01:43] <LjL> ricardo1: if you'd given me time to answer, i'd have told you that pasting long stuff over IRC would result in you being disconnected... anyway.
[01:43] <ricardo1> bruce89 but I deleted some entries
[01:44] <ricardo1> LjL its ok no problem
[01:44] <ricardo1> it was my fault
[01:44] <unmonkey> ok, so I'm looking at the dmesg logs, they're pretty foreboding...
[01:44] <unmonkey> what am I looking for to figure out what caused my kernel panic
[01:45] <pl> hello.  Can someone tell me how to enable wireless? It disabled itself after i installed rndis for phone tethering.
[01:45] <Siegfried> swegner, thanks a lot, that did it! :) (the rm -rf )
[01:45] <gabriel> good night everyone, thanks for the help
[01:45] <LjL> ricardo1: "aysql" on the last line should be "mysql", and of course you should remove the random letters in the previous lines.
[01:45] <LjL> ricardo1: as for the rest, you might have lost some usernames, but there's no way for me to know
[01:45] <swegner> Siegfried: good to hear.  I was having that problem earlier as well
[01:45] <bruce89> !danger
[01:46] <ricardo1> LjL: can this help: You have modified /etc/passwd. You may need to modify /etc/shadow for consistency. Please use the command `vipw -s' to do so.
[01:46] <LjL> ricardo1: well yes, it does actually. but you shouldn't show us your /etc/shadow, because that contains the password. just check it yourself, and see if there are any users listed in shadow which are not there in passwd
[01:46] <n2diy> ! bugs
[01:47] <ricardo1> ok LjL i will tell you
[01:49] <Royall> what is a good C++ IDE for ubuntu?
[01:49] <raylu> Royall: ides? psh.vim
[01:49] <bruce89> !ide
[01:49] <DIFH-iceroot> Royall: kdevelop, eclipse, vi
[01:49] <raylu> Royall: but kdevelop seems ok
[01:49] <swegner> Royall: Eclipse has a C++ plugin which is pretty usable
[01:50] <Flannel> Royall: eclipse or anjuta are the big ones
[01:50] <raylu> and since when did vim and gedit count as ides?
[01:50] <swegner> raylu: it's surprising how much you can do with a properly-configured vim setup  :)
[01:50] <bruce89> that's why it says editors/suites
[01:50] <raylu> bruce89: oh
[01:51] <raylu> swegner: i'm only surprised at how not annoying and fast it is. want to say the same thing about gedit? :P
[01:51] <bruce89> Eclipse or Netbeans are not GNOME
[01:51] <LjL> raylu: also, they do offer syntax highlighting and stuff.
[01:51] <DIFH-iceroot> raylu: vi is so powerfull, much more then any other editors
[01:51] <bruce89> !war

[01:54] <milosevic> hi, i was wondering, how do i turn "core dumps" on? I mean, i have a simple application that when executed yields a segmentation fault. I would really appreciate taking a look at the core dump
[01:54] <milosevic> but there ain't one
[01:55] <crdlb> milosevic: ulimit -c unlimited
[01:56] <crdlb> milosevic: if it works, you'll see Segmentation Fault (core dumped)
[01:56] <milosevic> man page says ulimit is obsolete
[01:56] <milosevic> but yeah, i got a core dump
[01:57] <ricardo1> LjL: I deleted lp mail gnunet and postgres what should i do?
[01:57] <matt_keys> I'm still having iptables/route problems and not sure which it is. Can someone take a look? :http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-networking-3/routingiptables-problem-710040/#post3468919
[01:58] <Nick_Meister> guys i am having a grub problem Error 11:  Unrecognized device string
[01:58] <Wald1> How do I change the background in Nautilus? I seem to have forgotten...
[01:58] <crdlb> milosevic: which man page says that?
[01:58] <milosevic> ulimit's man page
[01:59] <crdlb> milosevic: man 3 ulimit is for the function, not the command
[01:59] <crdlb> ulimit is a bash builtin, so it's in man bash
[01:59] <milosevic> hm
[01:59] <milosevic> that sounds about right
[01:59] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> Wald1, go in Edit > Background and events...
[01:59] <milosevic> thank you
[02:00] <pope> Is there a way to configure thec NBR's launcher to show Place's folder contents within the launcher itself, as the application categories show their contents in the main frame of the launcher?
[02:00] <ricardo1> I found that i deleted lp, mail, gnunet and postgres from vipw what lines should i insert?
[02:00] <Wald1> Rodrigotr_LOPes: Thanks, found it
[02:00] <Wald1> Doh, tab complete malfunction
[02:00] <LjL> ricardo1: http://paste.ubuntu.com/128568/ these are my entries for them (and there's no gnunet here), but i can't really guarantee the numbers are right. you should probably "sudo apt-get --reinstall install" postgres and gnunet (i've no idea what you'd need to reinstall for mail and lp, just hope mine work)
[02:00] <Zeldarock> I have a quetion, will 5 gigs be enough for a virtual HDD?
[02:01] <skel> Zeldarock: thats like asking if 100 pages of paper is enough for a novel ;)
[02:01] <swegner> Zeldarock: it depends on what you plan on putting on it.
[02:01] <ricardo1> thank you very much LjL
[02:01] <M1TM> skel that depends,is it dirty?
[02:02] <Nanner-Puss> Hey everyone
[02:02] <skel> M1TM: that depends on what dirty is to you? It's a romance novel about a guy who keeps extra memory laying around, not in anti-static bags
[02:03]  * M1TM giggles
[02:03] <Zeldarock> I only have 6 gigs left on my real HDD after setting aside 5 gigs for the virtual HDD
[02:03] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> Zeldarock, but.. you want emulate what???? in virtual hdd???
[02:03] <Zeldarock> ubuntu
[02:04] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> using what program??? virtualbox???
[02:04] <Zeldarock> yes
[02:04] <skel> Zeldarock: I think you'll be fine with 5gb if its just the default install
[02:04] <Royall> man, even getting a Hello World program to run in C++ on Ubuntu is difficult
[02:05] <skel> Royall: whats different about ubuntu thats causing you issues with c++?
[02:05] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> Zeldarock, 5gb is much for simple ubuntu...
[02:05] <Royall> skel: Whatever IDE I try, it's giving me errors
[02:05] <Royall> Eclipse, Kdevelop, Geany
[02:05] <skel> Royall: what happens if you compile manually?
[02:05] <kitche> Royall: did you install build-essentials?
[02:05] <Royall> all this deal about Makefiles and such
[02:06] <Royall> I don't know how to compile manually
[02:06] <skel> Royall: probably what kitche said
[02:06] <Royall> build-essentials as in sudo apt-get install build-essentials?
[02:06] <skel> Royall: I'd learn how to compile and link something manually before I went into using IDE's but obviously thats just my ho.
[02:06] <skel> Royall: yes
[02:07] <LjL> ricardo1: next time, use the users preferences in your GNOME to change users and groups. if you need to use the CLI, "adduser", "deluser" and in certain cases "usermod" work fine. don't touch passwd.
[02:08] <maxagaz> how to reinstall a package using aptitude
[02:08] <maxagaz> ?
[02:08] <linxeh_> LjL: why shouldnt you use "passwd" ?
[02:08] <swegner> maxagaz: sudo aptitude reinstall 'package'
[02:08] <LjL> linxeh_: i mean the *file* /etc/passwd.
[02:08] <DIFH-iceroot> linxeh_: to disbale login for example
[02:09] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> Zeldarock, xp runing wich 196 of ram and only 2gb of hdd http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/9444/screenshot1d.jpg

[02:10] <anku> got a quick question im using my tv as a monitor and the problem is that i can't see start menu and im just wondering how i can see everything\
[02:10] <Zeldarock> where'd you get that ubuntu theme?
[02:11] <skel> anku: do you know what resolution your tv is?
[02:11] <anku> 1080p
[02:11] <LjL> anku: start menu...?
[02:11] <skel> anku: I would drop out of X and go to a terminal while hooked up to the tv and try X -configure
[02:11] <Zeldarock> rodrigotr: where'd you get you ubuntu theme?
[02:11] <maxagaz> I did a "killall firefox", but still when I run firefox, i get this error message : "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."
[02:12] <skel> anku: see what it puts in the x.org file it creates for you
[02:12] <LjL> maxagaz: so try killall -9 firefox
[02:12] <Jufis> LjL, what does that -9 do?
[02:12] <LjL> Jufis: kill forcibly. it's SIGKILL.
[02:12] <LjL> Jufis: man kill has a list
[02:12] <Jufis> LjL, okay. thanks :)
[02:13] <skel> Jufis: man signal will get you a good one too
[02:13] <Jufis> skel, thanks
[02:14] <skel> anku: just make sure you backup your current x.org file if you go with the one you generated
[02:14] <maxagaz> LjL, i didn't work, i still have the same message
[02:14] <LjL> maxagaz: does "ps aux | grep firefox" show anything?
[02:15] <maxagaz> LjL, it only returned this line: "gilles    6613  0.0  0.0   3004   768 pts/0    S+   10:14   0:00 grep firefox"
[02:15] <skel> maxagaz: there might be state files laying around in your .mozilla dir, you could try mv ~/.mozilla ~/.mozaill-bak
[02:15] <LjL> maxagaz: then it's not running, it only thinks it's running...
[02:15] <mattgyver83> How can i find out what style of wifi card and drivers my machine is using?
[02:15] <maxagaz> LjL, skel : ok, it works now
[02:15] <skel> mattgyver83: ethtool may tell you
[02:16] <mattgyver83> Thank you, I will look into that.
[02:16] <LjL> maxagaz: but you've lost (well, moved) your settings and cache and stuff
[02:16] <maxagaz> LjL, skel : do you know from which file does it come from ?
[02:16] <LjL> maxagaz: no i don't know which file precisely signals that an instance of firefox is running
[02:16] <Vovk> Hey guys, I'm having some trouble setting up gtk-recordmydesktop to record internal audio. I'm following the guide that mocha wrote here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=986966 but I keep running into a snag on step 2. When i open pavucontrol it doesn't give me an option to move my music's output stream to the Jack sink, I only get the default alsa stuff
[02:16] <BrandonB> :s
[02:16] <skel> maxagaz: I'm not sure, what I'd do is move it back, then from command line, run strace firefox
[02:16] <BrandonB> How can I reduce the Memory consumption of utorrent?
[02:17] <skel> maxagaz: you should be able to see what file its reading to determine its running
[02:17] <BrandonB> I mean not utoorent
[02:17] <skel> maxagaz: and remove that
[02:17] <BrandonB> Ubuntu
[02:17] <Vovk> BrandonB, lol, that's a big distinction.
[02:17] <LjL> maxagaz: ok, it's ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile directory>/lock
[02:17] <LjL> maxagaz: remove that file, and you'll be fine
[02:17] <Vovk> BrandonB, have you looked into different window managers, using lighter programs?
[02:17] <BrandonB> Nope :\
[02:18] <Vovk> BrandonB, i.e. Xfce instead of gnome or kde, exaile or audacious instead of banshee or Amarok
[02:18] <BrandonB> I killed compiz and beryl
[02:18] <musikgoat|main> BrandonB: as with any OS, reduce the number of services (daemons), choose a low power window manager (fluxbox or xfce), and watch what programs you use
[02:18] <Vovk> BrandonB, it's a start :D
[02:18] <BrandonB> :D
[02:18] <skel> BrandonB: is memory an issue currently, and how did you determine that if so?
[02:18] <Vovk> BrandonB, i personally love using fluxbox, but there's a learning curve to it...
[02:18] <skel> <3 fluxbox
[02:18] <BrandonB> It may be :S See Im getting a cheap PC to run as a home server
[02:18] <BrandonB> and I would like to reduce it to just waht I need
[02:19] <musikgoat|main> BrandonB: avoid a gui then!!
[02:19] <BrandonB> :s
[02:19] <Marco> BrandonB, don't install X at all
[02:19] <BrandonB> I want a gui
[02:19] <musikgoat|main> boo
[02:19] <Vovk> BrandonB, lol, no
[02:19] <musikgoat|main> :-P
[02:19] <BrandonB> :S I dont like the terminal
[02:19] <BrandonB> It scares me
[02:19] <Vovk> BrandonB, links is the shiz :)
[02:19] <fuffalo> if i want a good dualboot setup, should i install windows then ubuntu, or ubuntu then windows? (ie: what order)
[02:19] <musikgoat|main> learn to love it :-P
[02:19] <skel> BrandonB: you can export X based applications to your linux desktop without running a gui on the server
[02:19] <Vovk> BrandonB, I have just the solution!
[02:19] <Marco> BrandonB, the majority of the time, you're not using the server interactively, a GUI is a complete waste
[02:19] <anku> Is it x-configure without spaces
[02:19] <anku> ?
[02:19] <Vovk> @ BrandonB, http://linuxcommand.org/learning_the_shell.php
[02:19] <skel> anku: no, X -configure
[02:19] <BrandonB> Marco: I plan on VNCing
[02:19] <skel> anku: just like that
[02:19] <quaal> why does every program i use to try to play a dvd fail
[02:19] <anku> ic
[02:20] <Marco> BrandonB, what do you plan to do in the GUI?
[02:20] <LjL> !dvd > quaal    (quaal, see the private message from ubottu)
[02:20] <skel> anku: it will probe your system and create a x.org file for you
[02:20] <BrandonB> Nothing, I just need to be able to mange two or three programs
[02:20] <skel> anku: you can try with that one, but backup your /etc/X11/xorg.conf somewhere safe
[02:20] <bigrigger> fuffalo: windows then ubuntu
[02:20] <Marco> BrandonB, most server setup is done on the cli or through web interfaces
[02:20] <BrandonB> Well, I could do it htat way, but is it possible to boot the gui?
[02:20] <BrandonB> When I need it
[02:20] <BrandonB> then kill it when Im done
[02:20] <Vovk> anyway, I'mma repost my sound question now :) I'm making a video of ubuntu to show to my friends, and I'd like to run some music in the background
[02:20] <skel> anku: then copy the one it made in your homedir into /etc/X11 and /etc/init.d/gdm restart (or whatever your wm is)
[02:20] <Marco> BrandonB, yes, tightvncserver
[02:21] <Marco> but I still don't see the point :/
[02:21] <Vovk>  I'm having some trouble setting up gtk-recordmydesktop to record internal audio. I'm following the guide that mocha wrote here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=986966 but I keep running into a snag on step 2. When i open pavucontrol it doesn't give me an option to move my music's output stream to the Jack sink, I only get the default alsa stuff
[02:21] <BrandonB> :\
[02:21] <Marco> BrandonB, there's little to zero server administration that can be done from the GUI
[02:21] <Vovk> BrandonB, trust me. running in the CLI can be fun
[02:21] <BrandonB> :|
[02:21] <musikgoat|main> heh
[02:21] <Vovk> BrandonB, there's even games!
[02:21] <Vovk> BrandonB, nethack, bastet ;)
[02:21] <BrandonB> I will explain as simply as possible
[02:21] <bruce89> aptitude
[02:21] <skel> Vovk: have you tried using Jing? it's pretty decent (made from the techsmith guys) its not opensource but its free for personal use
[02:21] <Marco> BrandonB, tightvncserver will use Xvnc to create an X instance that is only accessible through VNC
[02:21] <skel> Vovk: good for demos
[02:21] <Vovk> skel, I'll look into it, thanks :)
[02:22] <skel> Vovk: np :)
[02:22] <BrandonB> I am going to run about three programs, one is controllable via web, the other is just to make networking easier, the last has be accesible via other mean (vnc)
[02:22] <Vovk> skel, but i do tend to try use an open source solution when possible. it would be nice to tell my friends that the video is 100% FOSS
[02:22] <musikgoat|main> BrandonB: Marco's suggestion is probly the best,  start the tightvncserver when you need a gui, but otherwise you have a cli server
[02:22] <BrandonB> So i will get tight VNC
[02:22] <BrandonB> Ok thanks ;)
[02:22] <LjL> !vnc > BrandonB    (BrandonB, see the private message from ubottu)
[02:22] <BrandonB> and I will try to learn some of the terminal
[02:23] <bruce89> !ssh > BrandonB
[02:23] <BrandonB> Can you stop that :\
[02:23] <Vovk> BrandonB, you don't know how much you will love it once you learn :)
[02:23] <BrandonB> :)
[02:23] <LjL> BrandonB: it's useful instructions revelant to what you've asked.
[02:23] <skel> Vovk: I understand :)
[02:24] <BrandonB> !terminal
[02:24] <anku> It says fatal  server error server is already active for display 0
[02:24] <bruce89> BrandonB: what do you need a server for?
[02:24] <BrandonB> Its a home file server
[02:24] <Vovk>  skel, so I'm on their website. does Jing automatically record sound going through the standard output? (speakers)
[02:25] <BrandonB> that will ease our *legal* downloads
[02:25] <Vovk> skel, it's hard to tell from what they've written
[02:25] <BrandonB> so our computers wont run as slow :\
[02:25] <mrgxter> Is there a problem with ubuntu 8.10 and sharing folders?  When I share a folder I get accessed denied errors for sub-folders of the shared folder.
[02:25] <Vovk> BrandonB, which is why you get utorrent and ubuntu mixed up, lawl
[02:25] <BrandonB> lawl exactly ;)
[02:25] <BrandonB> I was downloading the installer
[02:25] <LjL> BrandonB: but out of curiosity, what is this application that needs to be run with X?
[02:25] <BrandonB> :D
[02:26] <anku> skel-- It says fatal  server error server is already active for display 0
[02:26] <BrandonB> SOmething to capture live streams from the internet
[02:26] <musikgoat|main> BrandonB: if you plan to run utorrent on that file server, i would suggest looking into deluge as an alternative (if that was a freudian slip earlier :-P )  it can run as a daemon with a web gui
[02:26] <Vovk> aye
[02:26] <fuffalo> in the ubuntu documenation it seems to tell me to install the 64bit version, if i have a processor that supports it... however i've heard that the 64bit version is a big hassle with a lot of applications compraed to the 32bit - is there any truth to that/
[02:26] <BrandonB> So can Utorrent, but I will look into that
[02:26] <bruce89> !transmission-cli > BrandonB
[02:26] <bruce89> !info transmission-cli > BrandonB
[02:26] <LjL> BrandonB: uhm, i'm sure there's a good few stream capturing possibilities without using a GUI... actually it's the last thing i'd think of using a GUI for.
[02:26] <Vovk> BrandonB: that way you could run it on your ubuntu box, but then manage it in your GUI on another machine
[02:27] <musikgoat|main> fuffalo: 64-bit has gotten much better in terms of program compatibility
[02:27] <quaal> LjL, just did what it says to do for 8.04: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs#Ubuntu 8.04.1 (i386)
[02:27] <quaal> it did nothing.
[02:27] <maxagaz> LjL, skel : I still don't know where the problem came from, about firefox, but removing ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile directory>/lock didn't help
[02:27] <BrandonB> Oh :\ can you suggest one?
[02:27] <skel> Vovk: I think it'll just grab it through the Mic, I haven't tried the latest version which may get through stdout
[02:27] <bruce89> fuffalo: depends how much non-free stuff you want
[02:27] <Vovk> the only problem i've had in 64 bit is getting boxee to work... other than that... everything has been smoothe
[02:27] <LjL> maxagaz: of course you removed it from the old directory - after moving it back to .mozilla?
[02:27] <skel> anku: thats why I said logout of X :)
[02:27] <LjL> quaal: and i suppose you are on 8.04?
[02:27] <skel> anku: do this, ctrl-alt-F2
[02:28] <skel> anku: then login
[02:28] <anku> k
[02:28] <LjL> BrandonB: VLC?
[02:28] <skel> anku: then do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[02:28] <LjL> BrandonB: live streams you mean video, right?
[02:28] <skel> anku: then run the X -configure
[02:28] <Vovk> skel, aah... that's the thing. I've no issue with gtk-recordmydesktop through the mic. I can narrate just fine. But in order to capture internal audio, i have to follow mocha's guide
[02:28] <BrandonB> yes
[02:28] <BrandonB> I mean tv shows and such
[02:28] <Vovk> skel, the only problem is that what he says should be coming up is not coming up
[02:28] <fuffalo> Bruce89, what do you mean?
[02:28] <LjL> BrandonB: well VLC should be fine, no?
[02:28] <anku> same thing
[02:29] <skel> Vovk: ahh =/
[02:29] <BrandonB> VLC
[02:29] <anku> same message
[02:29] <BrandonB> :s
[02:29] <quaal> LjL, yes. i am using 8.04, therefore i followed the steps detailed for 8.04.
[02:29] <Vovk> mocha, at first i thought it was a 64 bit issue, but he also uses 64 bit intrepid
[02:29] <bruce89> fuffalo: tends to be less support for non-free things in 64 bit
[02:29] <BrandonB> I only got ubuntu today :\
[02:29] <skel> anku: then sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf ~/xorg.conf.good
[02:29] <BrandonB> Hence me being a noob
[02:29] <bruce89> !info vlc-nox
[02:29] <LjL> quaal: right, well you never know
[02:29] <maxagaz> LjL, i've removed .mozilla, moved .mozilla-bak to .mozilla and then removed the lock file
[02:29] <Vovk> BrandonB, hehe... learn the basics before you go starting servers and whatnot :) you will benefit if you learn to walk before you run
[02:29] <skel> anku: and sudo cp xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:29] <BrandonB> :)
[02:29] <BrandonB> hehe
[02:29] <LjL> maxagaz: yes, that's what i meant
[02:29] <wistol> Hi, would anyone be able to assist me with a problem
[02:29] <musikgoat|main> bruce89, fuffalo: however, the 32-bit versions of those non-free things still work
[02:30] <skel> anku: then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[02:30] <BrandonB> Its the only reason I got it :)
[02:30] <maxagaz> LjL, what did i do that was wrong ?
[02:30] <bruce89> !ask | wistol
[02:30] <BrandonB> But I have two weeks to play around with it first
[02:30] <LjL> maxagaz: nothing i guess. "lock" is the only file i can see that comes and go depending on whether firefox is running.
[02:30] <Vovk> BrandonB, heh... try to learn as much as you can. good luck and welcome to the community :D
[02:30] <BrandonB> :) Glad to be here
[02:30] <hunt577> Hi everyone!  Does anyone know how to fix a distorted sound issue in ubuntu
[02:30] <LjL> maxagaz: perhaps try firefox -safe-mode, i dunno
[02:30] <anku> i have to do that when clt alt f2?
[02:30] <anku> in
[02:30] <Vovk> hunt577, how exactly?
[02:31] <BrandonB> I have a tendency to rush into things headfirst :)
[02:31] <Vovk> hunt577, how is it distorted? is it a certain program?
[02:31] <maxagaz> LjL, doesn't work too
[02:31] <hunt577> Vovk : The sound starts, then it vibrates...i notice on youtube it does this as well but also freezes the video
[02:31] <LjL> hunt577: distorted, like clipping? check your mixer, ensure all sliders are enabled in the preferences, and see if you have some strange "VIA" sliders. turn them down a bit.
[02:31] <BrandonB> how can I kill the gui?
[02:31] <LjL> maxagaz: i don't know really
[02:31] <BrandonB> I know there is a command
[02:31] <LjL> BrandonB: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop
[02:32] <LjL> BrandonB: (if you're using gdm as your login manager)
[02:32] <hunt577> LjL :  Thanks I will try that
[02:32] <BrandonB> ^-^
[02:32] <Vovk> BrandonB, it doesn't kill it, but you can hit alt+control+Function keys (F1,F2) to get virtual terminals
[02:32] <Vovk> LjL, aah, nice
[02:32] <musikgoat|main> BrandonB: hit ctrl+alt+f2  then login  then type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[02:32] <skel> anku: to get to a terminal outside of X11
[02:32] <BrandonB> Whats with the Sudo in front of it all?
[02:32] <LjL> !sudo > BrandonB    (BrandonB, see the private message from ubottu)
[02:32] <Vovk> BrandonB, admin powers
[02:32] <BrandonB> :D
[02:33] <BrandonB> One more thing that makes it better than vista
[02:33] <LjL> which doesn't take a lot, uhm
[02:33] <Vovk> BrandonB, hehe... so you won't frag your system with 1 click... more importantly, so other people won't either
[02:33] <maxagaz> LjL, i found the problem : .mozilla/firefox/<profile directory>/.parentlock
[02:33] <BrandonB> :D
[02:33] <wistol> I just installed ubuntu 8.1 on my secondary HD, it's an IDE. I have windows XP installed on my SATA drive. When i set the primary HDD to the IDE with ubuntu, it doesn't allow me to select the OS, it just boots to ubuntu. When i select the SATA with XP on it, it will say DISK BOOT FAILURE.
[02:33] <bruce89> unless you stick sudo on the front
[02:33] <maxagaz> LjL, thansk a lot for your help
[02:33] <LjL> maxagaz: oh.
[02:33] <LjL> maxagaz: i guess i missed that one
[02:34] <Vovk> BrandonB, use it sparingly... there is no need to always have all admin rights on all the time... it's just unsafe
[02:34] <BrandonB> So far Ive only typed in one command :p
[02:34] <bruce89> wistol: XP has to be on the primary drive
[02:34] <BrandonB> so I think Im ok
[02:35] <ScottG489> Whats the difference between these two programs that come with ubuntu: "Remote Desktop Viewer" and "Terminal Server Client" ?
[02:35] <wistol> bruce, i thought my SATA was the primary drive
[02:35]  * bruce89 wonders why tsclient is even installed anymore
[02:35] <Vovk> BrandonB, to learn to navigate, go to the guide I showed you :) you know... very basic things, cd, ls, mkdir, cp... etc
[02:35] <musikgoat|main> ScottG489: the first is for vnc and the second is windows remote desktop viewer
[02:35] <bruce89> wistol: I had to set it that way in the BIOS here
[02:35] <bruce89> or in my case, the other way
[02:35] <MiraiWarren0_0> Hi, anyone know an app for opening windows .bkf backup files?
[02:36] <ScottG489> musikgoat|main: ahh ok thanks
[02:36] <bruce89> wistol: and anyway, it appears grub isn't installed
[02:36] <BrandonB> cd  mkdir
[02:36] <BrandonB> is in Dos
[02:36] <musikgoat|main> ScottG489: it'd be nice if the windows remote desktop viewing could be built into the first, but that hasn't been done yet, hence the second program
[02:36] <wistol> it is
[02:36] <BrandonB> I know that much :\
[02:36] <hunt577> Vovk : I checked the settings but it doesn't seem to be changing.  The sound vibrates like someone shouting down a tunnel at you or something and vibrates
[02:36] <wistol> when i boot from the ubuntu drive, i can access Grub, but windows doesnt appear on the list
[02:36] <ScottG489> musikgoat|main: yea that would remove a lot of confusion too
[02:37] <Vovk> So, i'm having an issue. I'm following a guide and the first step is to start a JACK server. I've done that (default settings). the second step is to open up pavucontrol and set the control from the program making the sound to the Jack Sink... but that is not an option
[02:37] <LjL> BrandonB: actually, DOS has "md", not "mkdir"
[02:37] <Vovk> hunt577: which version of ubuntu are you using? how long have you had it?
[02:37] <bruce89> wistol: evidently it didn't detect windows at install time
[02:37] <Vovk> hunt577: also... do you know which sound card you're using
[02:38] <BrandonB> :\
[02:38] <detrix> need help getting widnows to see a printer on my ubuntu machine.  Samba is setup, but how do I get windows to see the printer?
[02:38] <BrandonB> Im pretty sure you can use mkdir
[02:38] <wistol> bruce, do you think it may be because i have ubuntu on the IDE drive?
[02:38] <Vovk> BrandonB, not the point :) just do some reading
[02:38] <BrandonB> :D
[02:39] <bruce89> wistol: shouldn't make any difference, the other machine has XP on IDE and Ubuntu on SATA, both are fine
[02:39] <quaal> why does every program i use to try to play a dvd fail
[02:39] <hunt577> Vovk: I am using ubuntu 8.10 and I just got put the disk in to use it.  This is also a brand new laptop I just got at best buy.  I believe my sound card is Altec Lansing
[02:39] <quaal> did what it says to do for 8.04: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs#Ubuntu 8.04.1 (i386) and it does nothing
[02:39] <wistol> but when i set the SATA drive with XP on it to the first in boot, it says DISK BOOT FAILURE
[02:40] <BrandonB> I have a serious question I hope you can answer,how can I se the live cd with the commands "SUDO APT-GET REMOVE Compiz Compiz-Core" allready invoked
[02:40] <detrix> quaal: I had similar problem.  trying to remember how I fixed it.
[02:40] <bruce89> wistol: you need to install grub to the SATA MBR
[02:40] <BrandonB> I need to be able to use it on slower hard ware
[02:41] <anku> im lost eeh
[02:41] <wistol> how do i do that
[02:41] <bruce89> !grub
[02:41] <anku> im an idot
[02:41] <anku> idiot
[02:41] <skel> anku: whats wrong?
[02:42] <y0loek> i just downloaded a possibly corrupted file, that could not be verified with the apt key. does this mean it could contain a threat?
[02:42] <anku> i  don't know where to do it in
[02:42] <anku> i know u said it
[02:42] <merther> When using k9copy to create an iso the iso is created perfectly fine in regular ubuntu but the iso is not created at all in xubuntu.  The log files state I/O errors, Medium Error.  Why would it work fine in ubuntu but not xubuntu?
[02:42] <BrandonB> I cant wait for crome on Ubuntu, then it will be perfect
[02:42] <anku> but im not use to doing this
[02:42] <detrix> quaal: did you run the css install script. I believe it is in /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3...checking
[02:42] <bruce89> BrandonB: it's on the way
[02:42] <anku> sorry im so furstrated
[02:42] <BrandonB> :) I know, thats why I cant wait
[02:43] <bruce89> heh
[02:43] <BrandonB> It will super fast browsing
[02:43] <oranye8> lkkjl
[02:43] <Vovk> hunt577, hmm. I don't know. LiveCD environments can be tricky. I would suggest downloading and compiling the latest ALSA drivers, but that requires a reboot and cds aren't persistent
[02:43] <BrandonB> I have a serious question I hope you can answer,how can I se the live cd with the commands "SUDO APT-GET REMOVE Compiz Compiz-Core" allready invoked
[02:43] <y0loek> i just downloaded a possibly corrupted file, that could not be verified with the apt key. does this mean it could contain a threat?
[02:43] <y0loek> program rather
[02:44] <Vovk> y0loek. what did you download?
[02:44] <lacqui> hello world
[02:44] <bruce89> BrandonB: we will already have a WebKit browser in about 6 months' time
[02:44] <lacqui> what's the command for editing startup services?
[02:44] <y0loek> its an obscure program
[02:44] <hunt577> Thanks vovk I appreciate it.
[02:44] <detrix> quaal: you still there
[02:44] <Vovk> hunt577, i'm sorry i couldn't help more :(
[02:45] <bruce89> y0loek: you need to add the repository key to apt
[02:45] <Vovk> y0loek, yes, the writer of the program will usually provide you with one
[02:45] <y0loek> bruce89, i did
[02:45] <bruce89> y0loek: where is this from
[02:45] <BrandonB> how can I use the live cd with the commands "SUDO APT-GET REMOVE Compiz Compiz-Core" allready invoked
[02:45] <merther> Also, is there a known issue with ubuntu  8.10 and not being able to create static ip addresses?
[02:45] <Vovk> y0loek, did you download it with apt? or did you download a .deb file
[02:45] <bruce89> BrandonB: you can't
[02:45] <lacqui> never mind, found it
[02:46] <y0loek> the output wasnt what the website said it was supposed to be
[02:46] <BrandonB> :\
[02:46] <BrandonB> that sucks
[02:46] <Vovk> BrandonB, not with a liveCD anyway... you need to install
[02:46] <detrix> quaal: did you run the css install script. I believe it is in /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3.
[02:46] <y0loek> .deb Vovk
[02:46] <BrandonB> that text one O.o
[02:46] <Vovk> y0loek, what program is it? perhaps we have heard of it?
[02:46] <BrandonB> can I use an older version?
[02:46] <_VIM_> BrandonB: also putting SUDO APT-GET INSTALL <PACKAGE> IN CAPS Is really a bad habit, the terminal will throw one error after another if you do that
[02:46] <BrandonB> since its an older pc the hardware should still be supported
[02:47] <y0loek> why would the program matter? ive downloaded it in the past with no problems.
[02:47] <BrandonB> (I have a tendency to capitalize those while speaking)
[02:47] <detrix> need help getting widnows to see a printer on my ubuntu machine.  Samba is setup, but how do I get windows to see the printer?
[02:47] <Vovk> y0loek, you're not giving us very much information
[02:47] <Vovk> y0loek, the best we can do is say that if you don't trust what you're doing, then don't do it :P
[02:47] <Or1on> anyone knows of a USB phone that works on ubuntu?
[02:48] <y0loek> what do i do now that this questionable program is on my system?
[02:48] <_VIM_> magicjack maybe
[02:48] <oranye8> makanan
[02:48] <BrandonB> Kill it
[02:48] <alhope> hello anyone can help me to use blender?
[02:48] <Vovk> y0loek, you just told us that you have a random package that you can't verify and that could be corrupt. I suggest rm :P
[02:48] <_VIM_> alhope: that's not on topic for here :)
[02:48] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> Orlon... look for kernel.org..
[02:49] <alhope> ^O^
[02:49] <Or1on> Rodrigotr_LOPes, thanks
[02:49] <TheFunkbomb> hey, I have that stupid Orca screen magnifier up on the top panel in Gnome.  How do I get rid of it?
[02:49] <BrandonB> hmmmm I can uninstall alot of thingsO.o
[02:49] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> alhope.... what you need make in blender???
[02:49] <y0loek> Vovk what if there are system files it installed that i dont know about
[02:49] <Vovk> BrandonB, it's linux. you can uninstall everything
[02:49] <ScottG489> So when i install drivers on my PC downstairs it doesnt output video on reboot. Same for XP and ubuntu. I used grub to boot into recovery mode. How do I disable the proprietary video drivers now from the command line so they will be deactivated next boot?
[02:50] <BrandonB> :D I love this OS
[02:50] <Vovk> y0loek, did you run it's installer? what output did you get
[02:50]  * BrandonB uninstalls Windows
[02:50] <Vovk> BrandonB, that's not an invitation to go removing EVERYTHING without understanding what it does
[02:50] <BrandonB> :D
[02:50] <BrandonB> I know
[02:50] <BrandonB> But I can get rid of the stuff included and custoomize it beyond my wildest dreams
[02:50] <Vovk> BrandonB, that's the idea!
[02:50] <TheFunkbomb> Anyone know how to remove the Orca button from the top panel in Gnome?
[02:51] <y0loek> i got an output that was contradictory to what the website said it was supposed to be
[02:51] <oranye8> jhk
[02:51] <oranye8> kkk
[02:51] <BrandonB> :D
[02:51] <Vovk> System>Preferences>Main menu TheFunkbomb
[02:51] <TheFunkbomb> Thanks Vovk
[02:51] <Jufis> BrandonB, you just discovered ubuntu?
[02:52] <BrandonB> Yes
[02:52] <BrandonB> Today like
[02:52] <BrandonB> ^-^
[02:52] <BrandonB> I tried for about a week to get it running
[02:52] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> TheFunkbomb, click the right button in icon and chose "remove of the panel"
[02:52] <Jufis> heh, I discovered it about a week ago :D
[02:52] <BrandonB> But today it finnaly worked
[02:52] <Vovk> meh... I don't think my JACK problem will every get solved
[02:52] <alhope> I'm a newer ,and study Civil Engineering,i want to know how to dew in UNBUNTU
[02:52] <TheFunkbomb> Rodrigotr_LOPes, right clicking does nothing
[02:52] <Jufis> awesome OS, will not get back to vista, never!
[02:52] <Vovk> ever*
[02:52] <BrandonB> and Im 14 ^-^ so im proud of even installing it
[02:52] <bruce89> 4.5 years ago for me
[02:52] <Jufis> haha
[02:52] <Vovk> my first was feisty... i got it the day it came out :D
[02:53] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> left click make what... and double click make what..???
[02:53] <Vovk> anyway, newbs. You may want to keep a windows partition around for programs that you absolutely need
[02:53] <BrandonB> I am ;)
[02:53] <Vovk> I know my calc class uses a windows only (wine is not an option) viewer for online sessions
[02:53] <BrandonB> Cause WINE would kill me
[02:53] <Jufis> Vovk, yea I have windows partition but havent really used it since installing ubuntu
[02:53] <Vovk> why they do, i'll never know
[02:53] <Jufis> I've found alternatives for everything I need
[02:53] <vin> any latest news from ubuntu
[02:53] <Vovk> BrandonB, wine is pretty simple
[02:53] <Vovk> Jufis, isn't it awesome when that happens :D
[02:54] <BrandonB> :s its its own worst enemy
[02:54] <y0loek> i got an output that was contradictory to what the website said it was supposed to be, Vovk
[02:54] <BrandonB> According to everyone ive taled to
[02:54] <Jufis> Vovk, you mean finding free alternatives for commercial windows apps?
[02:54] <Vovk> y0loek, so. you downloaded this deb file, you ran it with dpkg or whatever and it failed installing? or did you get the program running and it gave you bad output
[02:55] <Vovk> Jufis, yah :)
[02:55] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> TheFunkbomb,  try to System > preferences >sessions.. and look for "orca"... and disable the program...
[02:55] <Jufis> it's like free beer
[02:55] <Vovk> and speech at the same time!
[02:55] <Jufis> yeah!
[02:55] <Vovk> unfortunately
[02:55] <Vovk> i still can't get this damn JACK server running... we need someone who knows audio routing to log in!
[02:56] <unmonkey> Neato, so here's the output that I think is causing the kernel panic that i'm getting
[02:56] <Jufis> I hope someone will help you :) I'm off to sleep now, gnight guys ->
[02:57] <unmonkey> http://paste.ubuntu.com/128579/
[02:58] <unmonkey> sounds like its a problem with the driver for my ethernet port?
[02:58] <y0loek> Vovk, all im asking is this: is there a chance the system files in Ubuntu can get corrupted by programs from unreputible  repositories?
[02:58] <Dexi> Is there a way to temporarily disable emerald?
[02:58] <bruce89> y0loek: a link to this package would be useful
[02:58] <vin> hi
[02:59] <y0loek> methinks the mods are dodging my question
[02:59] <anku> skel- can u message me
[02:59] <kitche> y0loek: if your asking that question the anwser is pretty obvious which is Yes
[03:00] <tritium> y0loek: we have channel operators, not "mods".  But, this channel has many volunteers to answer questions.  The vast majority of answers do not come from ops, but from these volunteers.
[03:00] <lucax> hey guys, how can i stop pulseaudio from start on my session? ive delete it from sessions and /etc/x11/xsession.d and /etc/xdg/autostart but it stils loads on login
[03:00] <y0loek> the majority?
[03:01] <lstarnes> y0loek: most packages are safe, but occasionally a broken package can cause problems
[03:01] <gddbf> 大家好呀
[03:01] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> Hi lucax
[03:01] <ZykoticK9> lucax, did you check System / Preferences / Sessions?  PulseAudio Session Manager is in there???
[03:02] <gddbf> ？
[03:02] <gddbf> 这是个什么 聊天室呀
[03:02] <lucax> yeah but it isnt at all... and i also delete those entries but it still loads...
[03:02] <alhope> 这里不是中文频道
[03:02] <lucax> i dont know if it could be some where else
[03:02] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> lucax,  go to system > preferences > sessions and try to disable pseudoaudio
[03:02] <gddbf> 晕，那个是中文的呀，我不会弄
[03:02] <gddbf> 刚装的LINUX
[03:02] <scunizi> !cn | gddbf alhope
[03:02] <lucax> note there is nothing there...
[03:03] <alhope> 我也不知道，这里是讨论UBUNTU安装这类基础问题的
[03:03] <gddbf> 好的，哈哈，谢谢呀
[03:03] <lucax> theres is no pulseaudio entrie in session
[03:03] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> I hate pseudoaudio.. dont serve for nothing....
[03:03] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> its very useless
[03:04] <bohemian_> how do I copy a file to /usr/bin/  ? I tried cp file /usr/bin in terminal but i get "text file busy".  In nautilus there's no lock also... help please...
[03:05] <ScottG489> So when i install drivers on my PC downstairs it doesnt output video on reboot. Same for XP and ubuntu. I used grub to boot into recovery mode. How do I disable the proprietary video drivers now from the command line so they will be deactivated next boot?
[03:05] <y0loek> so should i have to reinstall my system
[03:05] <khaije1> bohemian_: firstly, are you certain you want to copy something into a system folder? if it's a program that only you will use then it's really not necessary...
[03:06] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> bohemian_, what you want make in /usr/bin???????
[03:06] <scunizi> ScottG489: edit doing.. "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf" and replace the driver mentioned (nvidia, ati, intel) with either vesa or nv
[03:06] <bohemian_> khaije1: i'm following a guide to manually install a driver that is only supported in windows and linux rpm
[03:06] <deedubb83> Hello
[03:07] <khaije1> bohemian_: that didn't make sense to me, can you paste the link to the guide?
[03:07] <bohemian_> but following a manual guide to install in ubuntu but will need to copy in that folder
[03:07] <bohemian_> http://www.touchkit.com/Manuals.htm
[03:07] <deedubb83> I am wondering if someone familiar with dmraid is here to help me? I accidently started my computer with one of my RAID0 stripe members disconnected and now my RAID controller isn't happy even tho the data is fine.
[03:07] <bohemian_> khaije1: ^
[03:08] <deedubb83> dmraid now shows the status as health but dmesg has errors  about "attempt to access beyond end of device"  "sdb: rw=0, want=1172142072, limit=586072368"
[03:08] <deedubb83> healthy rather
[03:08] <bohemian_> khaije1: i'm on page 9
[03:08] <denstark> Is there any way to mount a software raid in linux? dmraid shows no raid volumes and i'm not sure how to proceed from here
[03:09] <ScottG489> scunizi: ok ill give it a try brb
[03:09] <deedubb83> Anyone know where I might go for specific dmraid help?
[03:09] <khaije1> bohemian_: is this the only driver available for your hw?
[03:10] <ScottG489> scunizi: Which do i Use, vesa or nv? I have an ATI card
[03:10] <deedubb83> when I try to do a fdisk (to print the partiton table) I get "Unable to open /dev/mapper/nvidia_jbffieci"
[03:10] <deedubb83> I use nv
[03:10] <crdlb> ScottG489: ati
[03:11] <Brad450> my terminal is GONE help MEEE!!!
[03:11] <crdlb> or vesa if that doesn't work
[03:11] <bohemian_> khaije1: yes it's the only avaialable in cdrom all RPM, there's one from this link but I'm having lots of trouble compiling it... http://www.touchkit.com/LinuxDriver.htm
[03:11] <scunizi> ScottG489: vesa is generic.. , there is a generic for ati which I think is aiglx or something
[03:11] <Brad450> my TERMINAL IS GONE GUYS HELP ME
[03:11] <ILoveXp> Brad450: sudo aptitude install terminal
[03:11] <anku> skel ehh
[03:11] <tensei> I just formated a 2GB USB card to ext3 to use in linux.. I tried copying a file to it but it said permission denied.  I didn't have the permission problem when it was a windows format... will I have to use sudo nautilus to add and remove files from this?  or is there a way to fix it.  Ubuntu 8.04
[03:11] <kitche> scunizi: generic for ati is ati
[03:11] <BrandonB> IS there a super small version of linux?
[03:11] <BrandonB> :\
[03:11] <ScottG489> crdlb: oh just type "ati" in there?
[03:11] <Brad450> i dont have a terminal where do i enter it lol
[03:11] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> Brad450, ... speak.. better
[03:12] <Brad450> SOORY
[03:12] <kitche> BrandonB: yes DSL damn small linux not sure if it's still active or not
[03:12] <crdlb> ScottG489: that's a wrapper which will load radeon, yeah
[03:12] <scunizi> kitche: k..
[03:12] <BrandonB> would DSL be appropriate for what I wanted?
[03:12] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> Brad450, ... what you realy looking for??
[03:12] <scunizi> tensei: permissions on fat32 don't really exist.. what's the mount point for the usb stick?
[03:12] <Brad450> my terminal is gone
[03:12] <khaije1> bohemian_: what step, I opened the pdf which may have pages numbered differently
[03:12] <ILoveXp> Brad450: just open a new one then
[03:12] <tensei> scunizi: no clue
[03:13] <Brad450> like its not in the menus lol
[03:13] <tensei> scunizi: used gpart to format it
[03:13] <Vovk> if anyone remembers, problem solved :D
[03:13] <Brad450> how can i open it lol
[03:13] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> Brad450, try Alt+F2 and type xtem
[03:13] <Gartral> how do i tell what users are logged into my machine?
[03:13] <DIFH-iceroot> Gartral: w
[03:13] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> sorryt ....Brad450, try Alt+F2 and type xterm
[03:13] <Brad450> nothing lol
[03:13] <scunizi> tensei: type sudo fdisk -l in terminal and it should tell you
[03:13] <BrandonB> :s Why is ubuntu so slow :\
[03:14] <bohemian_> khaije1: "Manual Installation"  section
[03:14] <BrandonB> It takes like almost as long as Windows to boot firefox
[03:14] <ILoveXp> Brad450: Alt+F2 gnome-terminal
[03:14] <tensei> scunizi: gpart says the mountpoint is /media/disk
[03:14] <tmurder> anyone know what package the kernel manpages are in?
[03:14] <Brad450> wheni hit alt+f2 nothing happens
[03:14] <khaije1> bohemian_: ah i see ::reading::
[03:14] <scunizi> tensei: ok.. chmod 777 /media/disk
[03:14]  * BrandonB searches for speed up Ubuntu
[03:14] <scunizi> tensei: or .. sudo chmod 777 /media/disk
[03:15] <ILoveXp> Brad450: minimize everything first, then hit it. maybe it is behind the other windows
[03:15] <skel> Brad450: are you just in a console screen and not the gui?
[03:15] <bohemian_> khaije1: i've done # 2.2 and now in # 3
[03:15] <tensei> scunizi: ok what does that do?
[03:15] <khaije1> bohemian_: this is for a resistive touchscreen? did you install this yourself?
[03:15] <bohemian_> khaije1: no it's pre installed
[03:15] <scunizi> tensei: it will change the permissions to "anyone can read and write"
[03:15] <bohemian_> migrating from windows
[03:16] <khaije1> bohemian_: what device?
[03:16] <khaije1> im just curious
[03:16] <BrandonB> I cant believe Im searching on how to speed up Ubuntu
[03:16] <tensei> scunizi: is that just for this session, or anytime I plug it up it will remember that setting...
[03:16] <BrandonB> Its supposed to be super fast :\
[03:16] <scunizi> tensei: should be perminent unless you change it again later..
[03:17] <tensei> scunizi: thank you sir
[03:17] <trino> BrandonB: what did you do already?
[03:17] <BrandonB> Nothing
[03:17] <BrandonB> Just installed it
[03:17] <BrandonB> and booted it up
[03:17] <BrandonB> and opened Firefox
[03:17] <trino> BrandonB: compile your own kernel
[03:17] <BrandonB> O.o
[03:17] <BrandonB> That would kill me
[03:17] <scunizi> tensei: no problem. permissions are hard to grasp sometimes but once you get it, it's like a lightbulb comes on.
[03:17] <bohemian_> khaije1: pos hardware with lcd touchscreen
[03:17] <skel> BrandonB: what hardware are you running on?
[03:18] <stealth-> how can I forcefully lower the volume of a user from the command line?
[03:18] <BrandonB> Dell Optiplex GX260
[03:18] <tensei> scunizi: I'm a windows native so I've never really had these issues.  I like the permissions in linux.  keeps crazy things from happening
[03:19] <khaije1> bohemian_: ok, first thing, you don't install the driver until step 11, this is isntalling the service... i should be able to walk you through it
[03:19] <scunizi> tensei: once you change the permission, put a file on the usb stick and then in terminal type "ls -l /media/disk" .. you'll see the permissions on the left of the display as -rwxrwxrwx
[03:19] <khaije1> bohemian_: you said you were on step #3 ?
[03:19] <trino> stealth- soundvolume? try aumix
[03:19] <masu3701> hello...i just installed Xchat...how do i register?
[03:19] <kholerabbi> whats the cmd line for symlinking contents of a foldeer to another folder without renaming it
[03:19] <bohemian_> khaije1: yes, thanks you for helping, yes i'm in step 3
[03:20] <Karlos> hello, can someone can teach me to use compiz please
[03:20] <trino> kholerabbi man ln
[03:20] <kholerabbi> trino: cheers I'll check it out
[03:20] <scunizi> tensei: if you want an explaination of what you see I'll do it
[03:20] <tensei> scunizi: very cool... no explanation needed I think I get it
[03:21] <khaije1> kholerabbi: ln -s target link (be mindful of relative paths)
[03:21] <Mallen_> Hello all
[03:21] <tensei> scunizi: now figuring out how to right a shell script to backup my files and put it on the USB card will be fun
[03:21] <scunizi> tensei: when you see -rwxrwxrwx do you know how that breaks down?
[03:21] <kholerabbi> khaije1: OK thanks
[03:21] <khaije1> bohemian_: you'll need to 'sudo' to root, do you know how?
[03:21] <BrandonB> :s
[03:22] <scunizi> tensei: use rsync
[03:22] <tensei> scunizi: nope.. but it said the file and who had access "IE: root" or home user
[03:22] <BrandonB> !rollyourown
[03:22] <tensei> scunizi: whats rsync?
[03:22] <BrianTheCoder> any guys running ruby w/postgres on ubuntu? the gem is failing to build for me
[03:22] <BrandonB> !kernel
[03:22] <bohemian_> khaije1: yes learned some basic by contanly trying to make it work, i actually used "su" but will follow you...
[03:22] <ZykoticK9> scunizi, -rwxrwxrwx three groups of Read / Write / eXecute for for User, second for Group, thrid for Other
[03:23] <deedubb83> Pardon the repeat - I wont do it again --  Hello. Can someone help me with dmraid? I have an nv based hardware raid, I accidently started the computer with one member disconnected. The status is healthy now but it's not allowing access and dmesg has " attempt to access beyond end of device" & "sdb: rw=0, want=1172142080, limit=586072368" entries. Anyone got ideas?
[03:23] <khaije1> bohemian_: ok as your regular user, open a terminal and type: sudo bash
[03:23] <scunizi> tensei: rsync is a terminal utility to move files from point a to point b and makes sure their are up to date.. that way the next sync only syncs the stuff that has changed
[03:23] <khaije1> you'll need to key your credentials
[03:23] <scunizi> tensei: there's also grsync for a limited gui version
[03:23] <tensei> scunizi: i looked it up in add and remove programs and it gave me grsync.. is that what you were talking about or is there a lightweight version?
[03:23] <masu3701> can someone tell me how to register my user name? i just installed xchat and this is the first time i use it
[03:23] <bohemian_> khaije1: done
[03:24] <scunizi> !register | masu
[03:24] <Karlos> hello, can someone can teach me to use compiz please
[03:24] <khaije1> bohemian_: so you should be in the dir you were just working in, are all the expanded files you were working with there?
[03:24] <bohemian_> yup
[03:24] <CompuHacker> How goes?
[03:24] <trino> Karlos where is your exakt problem?
[03:25] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> Karlos, its installed in your system???
[03:25] <khaije1> bohemian_: k, you should be able to follow the guides instructions more directly now, let me know if you have questions or when you progress from different steps
[03:25] <masu3701> ubottu: so i just type /freenode?
[03:26] <tensei> scunizi: where does it stash it, what menu.. i can't seem to find it?
[03:26] <masu3701> #userregistration
[03:26] <Karlos> i want to do several effects like minimize windows and take the figure of a plane
[03:26] <bohemian_> khaije1: ok i'll try step 3
[03:27] <khaije1> bohemian_: mkay good, i'll be around for another 1/2 hour or so, just let me know if there is anything you don't understand of would like an assist with
[03:27] <BrandonB> Compiz is useless
[03:27] <Frijolie> I have a laptop which I leave on overnight (plugged in directly to the outlet), when I wake up my screensaver is going however once I head for the desktop, I'm missing my panels and the computer is unresponsive and I have to hard reboot. Any ideas how to fix this?
[03:27] <BrandonB> :\
[03:27] <Guest11705> karlos can you go to system-control center ?
[03:27] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> Karlos, ok...you using gnome??
[03:27] <bohemian_> khaije1: thanks
[03:27] <BrianTheCoder> any guys running ruby w/postgres on ubuntu? the gem is failing to build for me
[03:27] <BrandonB> O.o
[03:27] <scunizi> tensei: rsync or grsync?  rsync is terminal only .. grsync will show up under "Internet" but if it's not showing then it will on the next gdb restart. you can also right mouse click "Applications" and edit menus.. uncheck and check the menu listing to get it to show.
[03:27] <bigrigger> masu3701: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration
[03:28] <BrandonB> Can someone tell me how to do this:http://just-another.net/2008/07/29/installing-wubi-virtual-disk-permanently-its-own-partition/
[03:28] <Frijolie> Power Management Preferences, "sleep with inactive for" > Never
[03:28] <BrandonB> It looks like it would be easier to keep clean
[03:28]  * rww does
[03:28] <Frijolie> "put display to sleep when inactive for" > Never
[03:28] <Karlos> yes, im using gnome Rodrigotr_Lopez if u want lets go to a chat only both to speak in spanish
[03:28] <tensei> scunizi: Internet?  what an odd place to stow it
[03:28] <bruce89> !es | Karlos
[03:28] <bohemian_> khaije1: keep getting this error: "cp: cannot create regular file `/usr/bin/tpaneld': Text file busy"
[03:28] <bohemian_> step 3
[03:29] <scunizi> tensei: not really if you think of internet as "network".. rsync can move files locally or off to a server someplace.
[03:29] <Frijolie> any ideas?
[03:29] <bruce89> internet is short for internetwork
[03:29] <khaije1> bohemian_: show me the command you are typing in?
[03:31] <ScottG489> crdlb: hey thanks "ati" worked
[03:31] <tensei> scunizi: true enoough
[03:32] <anku> thanks skel for the attampt tho
[03:33] <Karlos> hello, can someone can teach me to use compiz please
[03:33] <tensei> scunizi: grsync automatically doesn't copy files that are the same/older on the current destination right?
[03:33] <fearful> Karlos, why don't you read a tutorial on google.
[03:33] <khaije1> bohemian_: this error usually means you are trying to overwrite a binary that is in use
[03:33] <bohemian_> khaije1: root@user:~/Desktop/TouchKit# sudo cp tpaneld /usr/bin
[03:34] <BrandonB> Huh, how safe is LVPM
[03:34] <Karlos> cause i read it but i cannot to an airplane when y minimize
[03:34] <clayg> what is a good terminal for connecting to bbs's? something with a black background that makes the ansi's look better?
[03:34] <bohemian_> khaije1: the file is not open nor the folder that contains it
[03:34] <Alex_21> Hi, how do you find out the partition table from the Command-Line durring the install of Ubuntu?
[03:34] <Alex_21> Please
[03:34] <DIFH-iceroot> clayg: gnome-terminal
[03:34] <BrandonB> Huh, how safe is LVPM
[03:34] <bruce89> gnome-terminal with a black background
[03:34] <bruce89> !lvpm
[03:35] <BrandonB> :\
[03:35] <clayg> DIFH-iceroot,  I'm looking for an alternative
[03:35] <scunizi> clayg: bbs's?  geez. I haven't heard of them in years.. dialup? or online?
[03:35] <DIFH-iceroot> clayg: why?
[03:35] <clayg> scunizi, online
[03:35] <trino> Alex_21 cfdisk, fdisk, parted
[03:35] <khaije1> bohemian_: that doesn't mean it isn't in use in some way, type: lsof | grep -i tpaneld
[03:35] <gegemaw> Needing some quick help on piping a terminal command am entering into a file.. something like "echo hello world! | >~/test.txt"
[03:35] <khaije1> any results?
[03:35] <Alex_21> Ok
[03:35] <Alex_21> Thanks
[03:36] <scunizi> clayg: are they still text based?
[03:36] <BrandonB> Its for transferring Wubi to its own partition and making it a "real" install. Unfortunatly, I cant intall Ubuntu on this PC any other way than Wubi (so far)
[03:36] <crdlb> gegemaw: drop the |
[03:36] <trino> gegemaw echo "some stuff" >> path/file
[03:36] <RussM_> gegemaw, try "echo hello world | tee test.txt"
[03:36] <gegemaw> Thanks all :)
[03:36] <masu3701> #ubuntu
[03:36] <scunizi> clayg: well... elinks is a terminal browser..
[03:37] <rww> BrandonB: It should be pretty safe, but you should backup data on your computer before using it, as always.
[03:37] <scunizi> *terminal based browser
[03:37] <BrandonB> As always >.>
[03:37] <BrandonB> <.<
[03:37] <khaije1> gegemaw: also i think 'echo "hello world" | cat >> ~/somefile' works as well, no?
[03:37] <bohemian_> khaije1: http://pastebin.com/m1e54c02c
[03:37] <clayg> scunizi, trying
[03:38] <Frijolie> hmm..
[03:38] <Frijolie> guess everyone is afraid
[03:38] <khaije1> bohemian_: right, the process is already running, type: stat /usr/bin/tpaneld
[03:38] <trino> clayg lynx, links, links2 as well
[03:38] <khaije1> sounds like it's already there
[03:38] <khaije1> brb
[03:38] <clayg> trino, for telnet?
[03:39] <ScottG489> do I need to install some kind of vnc server to be able to use vnc to connect to the computer from another?
[03:39] <bruce89> !vnc
[03:39] <bohemian_> khaije1: http://pastebin.com/d636d
[03:39] <Billy> im having a prob changing the ownership on a partion
[03:40] <scunizi> clayg: do you need a telnet program?
[03:40] <ScottG489> bruce89: ok cool thanks. So at home vnc would be best and if im at work or school FreeNX would be better?
[03:40] <fearful> Billy, need more specific to help :p
[03:40] <bruce89> ScottG489: never heard of FreeNX actually
[03:40] <gegemaw> khaije1: nah...the cat command after the piper gives a "Broken Piper" error.... but the others have wroked... special echo "text" >> file... as it appends a new line
[03:40] <RussM_> ScottG489, I use VNC all the time - tightvnc actually.
[03:40] <ScottG489> bruce89: yea neither have I thats why i asked
[03:41] <ScottG489> RussM_: How is that different?
[03:41] <scunizi> clayg: qterm is a bbs client for x windows & supports telnet and ssh1
[03:41] <scunizi> according to synaptic.
[03:41] <ZyktoicK9> clayg, have you tried pcmanx-gtk2 which according it the repo description is "user-friendly telnet client mainly targets BBS users", i've never tried it myself.  I did play with some telnet bbs a while back, think it was under FreeBSD and remember the problem with installing the actual DOS Ansi font into X before things started to really render properly (I mean the ANSI)
[03:41] <clayg> scunizi, ZyktoicK9 trying both! thanks
[03:41] <RussM_> ScottG489, tightvnc just adds some compression for use on slower connections - I think some of the other VNC servers have that now, too.
[03:42] <Billy> the partion is in ownership of the root when i try to run sudo chown -R william:william /media/disk
[03:42] <Billy>  it tells me not permitted
[03:42] <bruce89> ScottG489: anyway, System>Preferences>Remote Desktop or something like that
[03:42] <ScottG489> RussM_: Ah ok. seems like that would be more of some kind of setting instead of a whole different program
[03:42] <bohemian_> khaije1: does that mean i'm done in step 3?
[03:42] <RussM_> ScottG489, tightvnc's server also sets up a mini http server and serves out a java applet viewer, in case you are connecting in from somewhere that doesn't have a vnc client handy.
[03:43] <ScottG489> bruce89: ooh oh yea. ill give that a shot
[03:43] <fearful> Billy, whats it say?
[03:43] <clayg> scunizi, qterm is looking pretty sweet
[03:43] <jepp> does gimp have arial?
[03:43] <fearful> jepp, install msfonts?
[03:43] <ScottG489> RussM_: Huh thats pretty cool. I think I might give that a shot since I don't really use my PC downstairs as much
[03:43] <scunizi> clayg: cool.. never used it myself.. where do you find bbs listings? and what are they used for these days
[03:43] <bruce89> !info msttcorefonts
[03:44] <jepp> fearful
[03:44] <jepp> no
[03:44] <jepp> where do i get this
[03:44] <fearful> !msttcorefonts | jepp
[03:44] <lunat1que> somehow i am controling my mouse with my numpad soeone knows how to stop this
[03:44] <fearful> jepp, well read ubottu a line up :p
[03:44] <clayg> scunizi, just got bored and searched "telnet bbs list" got a text file i can send to you if you want, sposed to be current as of this month,
[03:44] <RussM_> ScottG489, There are some other differences, too. Some of the VNC servers serve out your main desktop (the one you can see when you're sitting at the console). TightVNC serves out a separate X session. I like that, but your preferences may be different.
[03:45] <scunizi> clayg: thanks.. I'll search.. dcc doesn't work behind my firewall.

[03:45] <eclipse__> I have ubuntu installed and I want to extend a second monitor. Currently, the second monitor is being extended as the primary desktop. Is there any way to force my laptop screen to be the primary desktop and have the attached moitor become an extention of that? or can I simply run two desktops, one for each monitor?
[03:45] <clayg> scunizi, that is where i found it
[03:45] <clayg> ZyktoicK9, pcman x frooze on em
[03:45] <scunizi> clayg: got it.listing of 400+
[03:46] <clayg> scunizi yeah some of those are decent, or decent looking
[03:46] <trino> clayg and which terminal will it be now?
[03:46] <Billy> it runs though all the files and on ever one of the files it says"chown: changing ownership of `/home/william/BACKUP/Music  song files': Operation not permitted
[03:46] <Billy> chown: changing ownership of `/home/william/BACKUP': Operation not permitted
[03:46] <Billy> "
[03:46] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> eclipse__, what is your video drive???sis ati, nvidia???
[03:46] <ZyktoicK9> clayg, as i said, i've never used it before, i did just install both it and qterm - looks like qterm might be a big more polished
[03:46] <Billy> sny ideas
[03:46] <ScottG489> RussM_: What are the benefits and disadvantages of it serving out a separate X session?
[03:46] <eclipse__> Rodrigotr_LOPes : Intel
[03:47] <bruce89> !sudi | Billy
[03:47] <bruce89> !sudo | Billy
[03:47] <eclipse__> Billy: sudo chown
[03:47] <Frijolie> all y'all some busters!
[03:47] <coreyman> why would gnome lock up with my xorg settings and kde doesnt
[03:47] <ScottG489> !ubottu
[03:47] <sanjud> ScottG489-> Freenx requires a secure link, so it is pretty secure to use assuming you trust ssh, and Freenx is fast
[03:48] <Billy> i did use sudo chown
[03:48] <clayg> ZyktoicK9, it does but try going to do a diff bbs , it messed up on a diff one :(
[03:48] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> sorry.. dont now intel graphic card...btw.. many times.. you need to edit /etc/
[03:48] <clayg> ZyktoicK9, maybe i need to set my modem to 8n1
[03:48] <clayg> :)
[03:48] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> eclipse__, many time you need edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:48] <ZyktoicK9> clayg, 8bit no partity that oldschool :)
[03:49] <ScottG489> RussM_: When I go to Applications > Internet > Terminal Server Client and try to select VNC as the protocol its greyed out. Whats up with this?
[03:49] <eclipse__> Rodrigotr_LOPes I've tried editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf .. you happen to have any good documentation for xorg.conf?
[03:49] <RussM_> ScottG489, Well, for one, I can set it to whatever size makes sense for the client end, rather than scrolling around (my home desktop is 2880x900, at work I'm lucky if I have 1280x1024!)
[03:49] <dindadrian> hey
[03:49] <coreyman> !xorg
[03:49] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> yes..
[03:50] <bruce89> RussM_: yikes, that's a bit too widescreen
[03:50] <Billy> sudo chown -R william:william /home/william/BACKUP thats the cmand right
[03:50] <ScottG489> RussM_: Wow thats a really fucking weird widescreen
[03:50] <gegemaw> a while ago on Dapper, I used Jinzora to stream music from my Linux box over the web to access my collection from work...are there other "better"alternatives someone can recommend?
[03:50] <bruce89> !ohwy
[03:50] <tritium> ScottG489: language, please
[03:50] <bruce89> !ohmy
[03:50] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> eclipse__,  in console type "man Xorg"
[03:50] <ScottG489> sorry :/
[03:50] <RussM_> bruce89, Dual 1440 by 900 monitors.
[03:50] <Brando753> hey guys why is it ever time i run a program that uses a little cpu or run a game ubuntu just closes it?
[03:50] <bruce89> ah
[03:50] <fearful> Billy, yes thats correct
[03:51] <RussM_> ScottG489, But really, the main reason is that I tend to leave stuff running on the desktops that are relevant to what I am doing at the time.
[03:51] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> Brando753, what game???
[03:51] <clayg> got to be a way to get rid of that chinese text, looking like line noise on the screen
[03:51]  * bruce89 reminds people that here in Scotland, the culture is swearing
[03:51] <Brando753> any, wheneve ri run a program that uses a lot of cpu the screen just closes on me
[03:51] <Brando753> I
[03:52] <tritium> bruce89: the culture in this channel is not
[03:52] <ScottG489> RussM_: Yea so do I, which is why i really wish hibernate would work on my laptop
[03:52] <Xpistos> what folder can I find the firefox program itself
[03:52] <coreyman> tritium i think he knows that.. .he is the one that did !ohmy
[03:52] <khaije1> bohemian_: probably... there isa file there with that name that was being run
[03:52] <Brando753> i wish suspend would work on my laptop
[03:52] <bruce89> way to suck out the fun of my pathetic joke
[03:52] <khaije1> bohemian_: type: ps aux | grep -i tpaneld
[03:53] <Rodrigotr_LOPes> Brando753, do you can display your computar specifications and games you want run???
[03:53] <RussM_> ScottG489, I haven't really tried hibernate - the one laptop I have running Ubuntu (Xubuntu, really) just stays running 24x7.
[03:53] <bruce89> tch
[03:53] <ScottG489> RussM_: But wait, how is that different from any other vnc program? Don't they all just connect to your computer and let you do w/e and then just cut the connection and your computer just sits there as you left it?
[03:53] <bohemian_> khaije1: http://pastebin.com/d7e9272fb
[03:54] <billybigrigger> when is it going to be a good idea to purchase ATI gfx cards? are they going to release decent or fix their current drivers any time soon?
[03:54] <ScottG489> RussM_: I mostly had experience with LogMeIn (its not that fast but its useable almost anywhere)
[03:54] <khaije1> bohemian_: ya so you can see it there more clearly, it's already running as root
[03:54] <Brando753> its a hp pavilion dv5 laptop, dualboots vista/ububtu and has 4 gig memory 250 gb hard drive standard video card, and just games and programs (things in wine, Planeshift, ALIEN ARENA, etc...)
[03:54] <bohemian_> khaije1: i tried to skip that part assuming it's installed  i'm now in step 5 and trying  /dev/usb/tkpanel0  but i get No such file or directory
[03:54] <bombshelter13_> Hey all... I'm trying to set up a Ubuntu PC to authenticate against an LDAP server, but after following a tutorial explaining how to do this, it does not appear to work. What log file can I look in, or what commend can I run, to check whether it is in fact binding against the LDAP server?
[03:55] <maxagaz> On Ubuntu, Thunderbird doesn't take into account a config of Thunderbird made on CentOS
[03:55] <ZyktoicK9> billybigrigger, even Cannonical has asked ATI for better driver - I wouldn't hold my breath...
[03:55] <maxagaz> why ?
[03:55] <billybigrigger> bah
[03:55] <khaije1> bohemian_: have you done the chmod step in 3 ?
[03:55] <billybigrigger> ati cards are so cheap $$$
[03:55] <Brando753> simple programs work fine things that take a lot of cpu just close
[03:55] <bohemian_> khaije1: yes
[03:55] <billybigrigger> i need something better than this onboard geforce 7025 but bah nvidia is $$$$$$$ expensive!
[03:55] <bohemian_> command is accepted but no confirmation message
[03:56] <Flannel> bohemian_: In linux, no news is good news.  You'll get error/warning messages, but if something just does what you tell it to without saying anything, thats a success.
[03:56] <RussM_> ScottG489, w/ TightVNC, you just run the server, give it a display number, optionally some geometry, and it starts up another X session. You can't see it, since it doesn't really exist on any real display anywhere. Then from outside, you connect in with a viewer, and it sends you the display.
[03:56] <ZyktoicK9> billybigrigger, 7025 can't be too bad.  what are you trying to run that slow?  compiz or games?
[03:56] <khaije1> bohemian_: mkay, and for step 4 you should have only done 4.2, not 4.1, right?
[03:57] <scunizi> billybigrigger: nothing really wrong with the 7025 unless you're having driver issues.
[03:57] <billybigrigger> ZyktoicK9, i want a new 22" widescreen lcd and this doesnt have onboard dvi
[03:57] <Brando753> !bored
[03:57] <bohemian_> khaije1: lol, good to know that.  yes 4.2
[03:57] <billybigrigger> zykes-, any games are pretty gay with this card
[03:57] <eclipse__> bombshelter13_  netstat -l -p
[03:57] <khaije1> Flannel: ignorance may be bliss, but in unix $? is result
[03:57] <kriscolt> does anyone know a way to dim the desktop?
[03:57] <ZyktoicK9> billybigrigger, ahhh that explains it - kinda surprised gaming is so poor...
[03:57] <Flannel> khaije1: Hmm?
[03:57] <billybigrigger> ZyktoicK9, im buying another monitor, and i need dual dvi
[03:57] <Xpistos> kriskiolt: fn + down
[03:57] <kriscolt> no function key..
[03:58] <RussM_> ScottG489, With some of the other VNC servers, they just serve out your main display - so when you connect in from outside, you see exactly what is visible on your monitor.
[03:58] <kriscolt> not a laptop
[03:58] <khaije1> '$?' contains the exit code of the previously run command so you can tell if it exited cleanly without any stdout
[03:58] <Flannel> khaije1: If you're referring to the prompt, that's the shell, not the program.
[03:58] <eclipse__> kriscolt do you have compiz?
[03:58] <billybigrigger> ZyktoicK9, well, railroad tycoon 3 runs...red alert 3, supreme comander dont, they new tom clancy hawx demo doesnt...i have amd x2 5000 oc'd to 2.9ghz with 2gb ram so i shouid be ok there...onboard gfx = no good for gaming, no matter what onboard chip you have
[03:59] <kriscolt> nope
[03:59] <kriscolt> can't run it
[03:59] <kriscolt> old machine
[03:59] <ScottG489> RussM_: Oh so it kinda creates a new window session for just the remote connection?
[03:59] <Brando753> how can you create a virtual server on ubuntu?
[03:59] <khaije1> bohemian_: so you skipped 4.1? because if not you should go back and undo it by removing the xf86touchKit.so
[03:59] <pl> is there an easy   way to reinstall ubuntu?
[03:59] <billybigrigger> Brando753, what kind of virtual server?
[04:00] <ScottG489> RussM_: I kinda think I would want the same session to be for when im at it physically and remotely so that I can pick up where i left off when I get home
[04:00] <bohemian_> khaije1: yes i skipped 4.1
[04:00] <billybigrigger> pl, put your cd in and reboot
[04:00] <RussM_> ScottG489, Yup. For comparison between some of the various remote desktop options: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_remote_desktop_software
[04:00] <ZyktoicK9> billybigrigger, ya i got a 8800 GT which drives dual monitors - it's pretty sweet.  i can pretty run most games flat out.  gaming and multimonitor is a pain though :(  <NOT A GAME I PLAY>Savage 2 has a native 64bit linux version and even played perfectly with the dual monitors</NOT A GAME I PLAY>
[04:00] <RussM_> ScottG489, Well, there's no reason you can run the viewer pointing locally.
[04:00] <bruce89> khaije1: nice
[04:01] <khaije1> bohemian_: k, sorry, what step you on now?
[04:01] <ScottG489> RussM_: What do you mean?
[04:01] <bombshelter13_> eclipse__: that looks like this, on both machines... http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m2be2cd56 Any particular ports I am looking for? I see slapd, I'm not sure what else is relevant.
[04:01] <ScottG489> RussM_: oh did you mean "cant" ?
[04:01] <billybigrigger> ZyktoicK9, some guy on craigslist here in calgary has an 8800 gts for sale, $140 canadian i think
[04:01] <eclipse__> kriscolt LCD monitor?
[04:01] <RussM_> ScottG489, Yeah, sorry.
[04:02] <ScottG489> RussM_: Np. yea thats true. and it wouldnt be any slower?
[04:02] <jepp> thank you fearful, you hint helped me
[04:02] <billybigrigger> ZyktoicK9, i think im gonna go with a 9600 or 9800 depends how much i feel like spending that day, im cheap and havent weighed out the options of going with a 9800
[04:02]  * khaije1 is making soup
[04:02] <Brando753> a local web server (intranet) to test my sites out \
[04:02] <bruce89> !ot
[04:02] <khaije1> !soup
[04:02] <ZyktoicK9> billybigrigger, bet you could be an ATI for a lot less -- joking of course
[04:02] <fearful> jepp, your welcome
[04:02] <ScottG489> RussM_: I really cant see a reason why I would be doing anything different on my computer if I was at home or away. I'd mostly be doing the same thing
[04:02] <khaije1> heheh
[04:02] <RussM_> ScottG489, well, yeah, it would be slower (and there's no 3D graphics acceleration or anything.
[04:03] <ScottG489> RussM_: Oh, ehh. Well I'll look in to it. Im installing a ton of packages on my PC downstairs including ssh and the vnc 4 server
[04:03] <kriscolt> eclipse__: it's an old iMac g4, the kind that has that swivel monitor on top of the half-dome base
[04:03] <billybigrigger> ZyktoicK9, i havent owned an ati card for years...last one came in my old laptop x600 i think
[04:03] <jepp> do someone know how to invert colours in gimp? i don't mean black/white into white/black but for example orange/yellow in yellow/orrange...
[04:04] <bruce89> jepp: that's not inverting
[04:04] <jepp> bruce89, what is that
[04:04] <ScottG489> RussM_: One question before I leave. If I have 2 computers on my network in which I have an ssh server for, how do I designate which one I want to connect to when im connecting externally?
[04:04] <bruce89> jepp: but there's something called colour rotate in the colour menu
[04:04] <Flannel> jepp: Filters > colors >  Map > Color Exchange
[04:04] <billybigrigger> zykes-, and before that it was years before, i dont like ati, but for windows platforms, they're cheap and the way to go i think
[04:04] <RussM_> ScottG489, You have a router / firewall?
[04:04] <mezy> hey, my firefox wont start up because of error saying that its already running but not responding. i tried restarting but it just keeps popping up. i want to know how to kill its process to be able to use it again.
[04:05] <fearful> mezy, sudo killall firefox
[04:05] <kriscolt> i'm looking for a software solution, other than compiz in order to dim the display
[04:05] <billybigrigger> ZyktoicK9, so if you dont play savage2 on your 8800 what do you play? and native or in wine?
[04:05] <kitche> ScottG489: port forward the correct computer on your router
[04:05] <coreyman> how can i get my time to go ahead an hour
[04:05] <ScottG489> RussM_: Yes I have a router and I think it forwards ssh to my server right now
[04:05] <bruce89> mezy: sudo killall -9 firefox
[04:05] <jepp> bruce89, can you tell me exactly the menu?
[04:05] <RussM_> ScottG489, You can forward one port to one computer, and a different port to another computer, if you want.
[04:05] <ScottG489> kitche: There isnt 1 correct computer. Theres 2. My server and my desktop PC
[04:05] <Flannel> coreyman: Is your timezone set up properly?
[04:05] <billybigrigger> mezy, open a terminal then type sudo killall firefox
[04:05] <Xpistos> kriscolt: right click on one of your panels and add to panel brightness applet
[04:05] <coreyman> flannel yes, gmt-6, but time has moved forward an hour this morning at 2 am
[04:05] <ScottG489> RussM_: Well I thought there were certain ports for certain protocols and 22 is for ssh
[04:06] <bruce89> jepp: Colours>Map>various things there
[04:06] <jepp> Flannel, there is no color exchange filter
[04:06] <Flannel> coreyman: Right, but Linux handles DST just fine.
[04:06] <masu3701> a
[04:06] <billybigrigger> mezy, or what bruce89 said
[04:06] <RussM_> ScottG489, That's the default, but you can use practically any port you want (as long as your ISP doesn't block it)
[04:06] <coreyman> well it hasnt
[04:06] <Flannel> coreyman: Are you sure you're set up in the right country/etc?
[04:06] <mezy> fearful: it didn't work
[04:06] <coreyman> flannel im not a retard.
[04:06] <bruce89> !ohmy
[04:06] <ScottG489> RussM_: Hm, ok. well im heading out so ill ttyl. Thanks a ton
[04:06] <bohemian_> khaije1: i'm now in step 5 and trying  /dev/usb/tkpanel0  but i get "No such file or directory"
[04:06] <ulamSpiral> hey everyone
[04:06] <kriscolt> eclips: that only works with laptop monitors
[04:06] <Flannel> coreyman: I never said you were.  But GMT-6 could be a few places.
[04:06] <kitche> ScottG489: and your point? like I said port forward the correct IP in your router you can always ssh in on one computer then ssh in to your other computer using the one connection
[04:06] <RussM_> ScottG489, I tend to connect to one computer... then set the tunnels to point to the others.
[04:07] <bruce89> mezy: which GIMP version is this?
[04:07] <coreyman> flannel i tried the closest one on the map, and then i tried "use local timezone"
[04:07] <masu3701> hello
[04:07] <ZyktoicK9> billybigrigger, i'm pretty much exclusivly a FPS guy: Quake 4, Doom 3, UT2004, i did have a cool MedalofHonour(i think) game running under wine that required DX10, that was fun to get running.
[04:07] <ScottG489> kitche: oh yea thats true i can do that...might kinda get confusing but yea. ok thanks
[04:07] <Flannel> coreyman: Is this computer only Linux? or do you dual boot with windows?
[04:07] <ScottG489> RussM_: yea i think thats what ill do. ttyl
[04:07] <eclipse__> bombshelter13_ that looks normal
[04:07] <jepp> bruce89, are you sure? tried everything but no color exchange...
[04:07] <coreyman> only linux
[04:07] <masu3701> aa.
[04:07] <masu3701> .
[04:08] <masu3701> .
[04:08] <bruce89> jepp: that's where it is in GIMP 2.6.x
[04:08] <mezy> bruce89: isn't GIMP an image editor?
[04:08] <billybigrigger> ZyktoicK9, so you run all games in wine? good i was thinking my gaming performace was due to wine, was thinking of going with cedega or transgaming or whatever but ill stick with wine
[04:08] <bruce89> yes
[04:08] <ZyktoicK9> billybigrigger, no wine at all
[04:08] <ulamSpiral> quick question, whats the purpose of the gnome-core-devel package, i installed it for working with gtk but I also want to know what else it installed
[04:08] <jepp> bruce89, I have 2.6.4. what filter are you using exactly?
[04:08] <coreyman> flannel i found a timzone that works i guess.
[04:08] <billybigrigger> ZyktoicK9, native only?
[04:08] <coreyman> flannel ... lol
[04:08] <jepp> filter>map>?
[04:09] <ZyktoicK9> billybigrigger, all the games i mentioned have native linux - run servers too
[04:09] <masu3701> .
[04:09] <bruce89> jepp: Colour>Map>Colour Exchange
[04:09] <billybigrigger> ZyktoicK9, ahh
[04:09] <coreyman> flannel it still says it's CST and it moved it ahead an hour
[04:09] <mezy> bruce89: im talking about firefox. im not sure what GIMP has to do with it.
[04:09] <bruce89> eh?
[04:10] <khaije1> bohemian_: so the config file in 5 is all set? you may need to restart tpaneld or rescan you hw... is the touchpanel installed via usb?
[04:10] <scunizi> coreyman: if last week you were -6 . then this week you might be -7 or -5 depending on the recent time change
[04:10] <eclipse__> kriscolt look in /proc/acpi/video/   for a brightness file
[04:10] <jepp> bruce89, ok found it. let's see if i can use it...
[04:10] <redvamp128> billybigrigger:  both of those actually use wine (they are just configurations that install fixes) for the games  Cedega - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cedega>
[04:10] <eclipse__> kriscolt echo -n 100 > /proc/acpi/video/......./brightness
[04:10] <bruce89> ulamSpiral: a load of stuff you don't need
[04:10] <coreyman> scunizi i think you may be right, but i never remember being anything different than -6, doesn't everyones time change.
[04:10] <ZyktoicK9> I'd like to configure Nvidia TwinView Dual Monitor setup, so both monitors act as one single screen.  Example: the Menu bar would reach across both screens from side-to-side. Why: would like compiz's cube to be a single cube instead of 2 individual cubes.  I did see this on my desktop once, but it was due to a miss configuration - so it can be done.
[04:11] <bruce89> ulamSpiral: apt-cache depends gnome-core-devel
[04:11] <redvamp128> billybigrigger:  even crossover installs a version of wine that it works well with.
[04:11] <scunizi> coreyman: around the world? no..
[04:11] <bohemian_> khaije1: i'm not sure if this is usb as it's preconfigured. i try restarting if it will help
[04:11] <coreyman> scunizi oh.
[04:11] <coreyman> scunizi why not.
[04:11] <scunizi> coreyman: even in the US there are places with no time chage
[04:11] <scunizi> *change
[04:11] <ArielMT> ubuntu 8.10, kde 4.2.00 -- where the bloody hell did kcontrol go?
[04:11] <coreyman> scunizi we all revolve around the same sun
[04:11] <bruce89> ulamSpiral: all you need is libgtk2.0-dev
[04:11] <ulamSpiral> brune89: what is the command to check for dependencies from the shell
[04:11] <bohemian_> khaije1: will take a break from here, hopefully i can still catch
[04:11] <bohemian_> you
[04:11] <ulamSpiral> brunec89: really apt-cahce depends on it, are you sure...?
[04:12] <baxtor> Hey guys, i have a query with mdadm, i created a software raid0 on my old install of ubuntu, now i have reinstalled ubuntu but cant figure out how to mount the software raid using mdadm without deleting everything and starting from scratch, the HDD's in question are /dev/sdd , /dev/sdc anyone able to help?
[04:12] <khaije1> bohemian_: okeedoke
[04:12] <bruce89> ulamSpiral: that's the command
[04:12] <ulamSpiral> brunce89: ok yeah duh lol
[04:12] <khaije1> r u there?
[04:12] <khaije1> sry ww
[04:12] <scunizi> coreyman: time change was first thought of by Benjamine Franklin .. later put into place to assist farmers and others with getting crops in
[04:13] <{bosco}> i need a good app that i can talk to my yahoo aol gmail msn some others on im program

[04:14] <{bosco}> bruce89, thanks
[04:14] <coreyman> good night all....

[04:14] <ulamSpiral>  ZyktoicK9: I remember your the "screen" expret lol, is there a way for verticle split windows instead of just horizontal
[04:15] <ZyktoicK9> ulamSpiral, not that I am aware of... never looked into it.
[04:15] <bruce89> !empathy | {bosco}
[04:15] <ulamSpiral>  ZyktoicK9: pk I could fig around but figured Id just throw it out there
[04:15] <ulamSpiral> dig*
[04:15] <masu3701> .
[04:16] <scunizi> ulamSpiral: I read that the next version might have that feature.. take a look at "terminator".. you can't use it with screen but will split a terminal horizontal & verticle. personally I like screen better
[04:16] <pwnedulongtime> how do i remove left hand keys in gconf-editor?
[04:16] <masu3701> how do i join a channel permanally?

[04:17] <_VIM_> masu3701: depends on your irc client, its usually called autojoin
[04:17] <bruce89> masu3701: the GNOME IM client
[04:18] <masu3701> so how do i check the client?
[04:18] <khaije1> bruce89: it's a goodway forward imho, pidgin's rate of progress has been slowing lately (otherwise it's still excellent)
[04:19] <ulamSpiral> solaria: are you at shippensburg?

[04:22] <sisto> hi, any macbook users? I can't change my screen brightness and my battery status doesn't show. I have macbook version 5,2. I followed these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook5-1/Intrepid ...Note I have to boot the machine with acpi=off or else it doesn't boot.
[04:22] <jepp> color exchange doesn't work as similiar as inverting tool on gimp. i can't really change two colors. can someone help?
[04:22] <bruce89> jepp: you want to change yellow to orange?
[04:22] <jepp> and orange to yellow
[04:23] <bruce89> ah
[04:25] <mercutio22_> I got a problem with gdebi installer. It crashes my pc beyond repair. I have to restart it
[04:25] <RPS> Hello Guys, I found out that the only way my new Asus laptop is going to dual boot Vista (ugh) and Ubuntu is if I change the bios settings from 'enhanced' to 'compatible' with my CD/DVD drive. Every time I tried it in its 'enhanced' mode the drive would lock up as soon as I tried to run anything from it, so the reason for me to change is documented and there's no need to dwell on that point. The question I have is, will I lose very much
[04:25] <RPS> productivity with the drive when I switch to the compatible mode? I will need to make the setting change and then reinstall Vista, so I'd rather ask questions before I make so many changes. I don;t think it will make that much difference, but I'd like to get some opinions.
[04:25] <Merther> What does indexing actually do?
[04:25] <mercutio22_> I think there might be a problem with authentication since that always happen after I enter my user password
[04:27] <bruce89> jepp: try rotate colours, but I can't think how to swap both directions
[04:29] <jepp> bruce89, but i can't choose the exact colour
[04:29] <jepp> I can't type in any hex/rgb color codes
[04:30] <masu3701> .
[04:30] <bruce89> you could try changing yellow to some other colour, then orange to yellow, then the other colour to orange
[04:31] <bruce89> use the colour select tool
[04:31] <ZyktoicK9> RPS, i've never heard of "enhanced" and "compatible" mode for an optical drive before, I don't even know what it could be referring too, but how often to you actually use your CD/DVD drive anyways?  I don't think performance will be a big issue.  Good luck with Ubuntu :)
[04:36] <RPS> ZyktoicK9, let me dig up the link about it ...it's from a thread I had on the forums and when I talked with an Asus tech he said ..."Yep, that set up will not work unless you set it to compatible."
[04:36] <bobbi> Where are Tomboy Notes stored?
[04:37] <bombshelter13_> is it possible for tcpdump to misreport hostnames in it's output? specifically, all machines in this domain are in 'malsheem.org' but all the tcpdump output contains 'malshemm.org' instead.
[04:37] <FarrisG> Is there anyway to interrupt an automatic fsck, short of poking the box in the eye?
[04:37] <RPS> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1012009.html ...it's the last post in the thread ...I had given up and bought another laptop ....what can I say, I wanted to run Ubuntu. .LOL
[04:38] <heftycat_> is there a linux pros out there that can help me recognize a variant or theme?
[04:38] <Jeryx> hi. I installed the restricted extras pack to enable mp3s but now they squelch and stutter on me
[04:38] <FarrisG> heftycat_: ?
[04:39] <shadowh511> heftycat_: screenie plz
[04:39] <heftycat_> 1 sec actually i forgot that i am in virtual box and it doesnt cut and paste over
[04:39] <moxisi> who can tell me how to install .tar.gz
[04:39] <moxisi> thanks
[04:40] <heftycat_> http://armstrong-clan.net/dump/g1-linux-integration.png
[04:40] <lstarnes> moxisi: extract it then look for instructions.  They're usually in a file called README or INSTALL
[04:40] <moxisi> no
[04:40] <moxisi> it have no
[04:41] <paragonc> so ive installed a vnc server - and im connected on the same network - but it's super laggy - any ideas to improve performance?
[04:42] <heftycat_> farris or shadow did ya catch the screenie?
[04:42] <heftycat_> http://armstrong-clan.net/dump/g1-linux-integration.png
[04:42] <Zeroyez> i used the ubuntu installer to resize my ntfs partition, but it only resized the partition and not the file system
[04:42] <ZyktoicK9> RPS, ok so what they're really talking about is the SATA controller.  This seems like a lot of work, change BIOS reinstall Vista then reinstall Ubuntu, are you sure your having the same problem???
[04:42] <Zeroyez> how can i fix my other partition now?
[04:43] <draeday> how do i fix the usb in virtual box
[04:43] <bonez45> I am trying to boot up two SATA drives and one IDE drive.. . or rather.. I want to select among them all to be able to choose which drive to boot up.. how do I do this?
[04:43] <scunizi> draeday: fix? you mean make it work?
[04:43] <draeday> yea
[04:43] <bonez45> I ran 'sudo update-grub' already,  to no avail
[04:43] <bobbi> Where are Tomboy Notes stored?  Anyone  know?
[04:43] <RPS> ZyktoicK9, yes after I talked with the Asus tech ...he knew exactly about this issue
[04:43] <shadowh511> heftycat_:that is a custom theme, idk :(
[04:44] <scunizi> draeday: if you installed virtualbox-ose from the repos that's you're problem.. you need to download the version direclty from vbox.
[04:44] <bruce89> bobbi: ~/.gnome2/tomboy or ~/.tomboy likely
[04:44] <RPS> ZyktoicK9, I was shocked when he almost finished my statement for me.
[04:44] <ZyktoicK9> RPS I'm sure
[04:44] <ZyktoicK9> draeday, which version of VirtualBox did you install?  the version in the Repos doesn't have USB support.
[04:45] <bobbi> Thanks Bruce89
[04:45] <adamg> can anyone advise the 'correct' method of running ntop on a dual nic gateway (LAN on one NIC, internet on other NIC) when I want to see who (LAN IP) is accessing what (Internet IP + port) ?
[04:45] <draeday> i have version 2.02
[04:45] <ZyktoicK9> draeday, be sure you've added Sun's VirtualBox repos as explained here: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
[04:46] <BrandonB> How bad is Wubi compared to a real install?
[04:46] <ZyktoicK9> draeday, it's if you have OSE version or PUEL that makes the USB difference
[04:46] <RPS> ZyktoicK9,  I'd like to get everything on to the new computer ...it's a nice machine. This is another issue, but what is involved with installing multiple OS's? I mean more than 2.
[04:46] <paragonc> how do i get S-Video Out on my nVidia GeForce 8400???
[04:46] <bohemian_> khaije1: i might need to remove .so file in step 4.1, i overlooked the extension, what the command to remove it?
[04:46] <paragonc> it doesnt seem to give me any options for it
[04:47] <ZyktoicK9> RPS, with GRUB which will be installed with Ubuntu you can pretty much boot as many OSs as you'd like :)
[04:47] <draeday> how can i tell which version i have im not sure
[04:47] <paragonc> im running the nVideo 1.8 series driver
[04:47] <khaije1> bohemian_: 'rm' is the remove command, use with care especially when root
[04:47] <sisto> hi, any macbook users? I can't change my screen brightness and my battery status doesn't show. I have macbook version 5,2. I followed these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook5-1/Intrepid ...Note I have to boot the machine with acpi=off or else it doesn't boot.
[04:47] <jhesketh_> Hi. I have a friend with a dell xps 1220 who is complaining about a hissing sound with his audio. He explains it as working but it sounds like when you turn the speakers up all the way even though they aren't. The problem persists with alsa and pulseaudio.. Any ideas?
[04:48] <ZyktoicK9> draeday, did you install it from the Ubuntu Synaptic? or from the website like I gave you?
[04:48] <RPS> ZyktoicK9, I'm on an Ubuntu machine as we speak. It's in here already then?
[04:48] <bohemian_> khaije1: ok so "rm driver.so" will do?
[04:48] <bohemian_> oh i need to include directory
[04:48] <draeday> from ubuntu
[04:48] <ZyktoicK9> RPS, but once you reinstall Vista grub will be gone and need to be reinstalled (thus the reinstall of ubuntu i'd imagine)
[04:49] <BrandonB> how can I speed up Ubuntu?
[04:49] <shadowh511> Zeroyez:whadda you mean (double check)?
[04:49] <bruce89> !grub
[04:49] <Flannel> !grub | ZyktoicK9, RPS, first link
[04:49] <ZyktoicK9> RPS, Grub and boot Any OS out there, and as many versions as you have partitions - it's extremely powerful
[04:49] <Zeroyez> the ubuntu installer, i used resize partition on my windows partition to make room for ubuntu
[04:49] <Zeroyez> and it resized the partition, but not the file system
[04:50] <shadowh511> Zeroyez, like data overflows and kills ubuntu/Winfows?
[04:50] <Zeroyez> no...
[04:50] <Patrick_O> I have script that runs correctly if I run it myself directly from the terminal. However, if I use another script to call it, it fails looking for a file in a non-existent directory. Anybody know what gives?
[04:50] <shadowh511> Zero..., then what is the problem? I am kinda lost ???
[04:50] <ZyktoicK9> Patrick_O, use complete paths in your script
[04:50] <Zeroyez> windows now boots and says that the file system is 500 GB, but the partition the file system is on is 195 GB
[04:51] <Patrick_O> I did
[04:51] <Zeroyez> i need to get onto windows to play WoW :(
[04:51] <Patrick_O>  /./home/username/.....
[04:51] <shadowh511> Zeroyez, can you afford to try and reinstall ubuntu?
[04:51] <sanjud> Patrick_O-> exported the correct environments?
[04:51] <ZyktoicK9> Patrick_O, /./home/username is invalid
[04:51] <Patrick_O> Sanjud, no. I do I do that or where can I find info?
[04:51] <eclipse__> Patrick_O ~/...
[04:52] <Zeroyez> sigh, is there a general support channel on this network?
[04:52] <sanjud> Patrick_O-> well, everytime a script is run, it spawns a shell
[04:52] <billybigrigger> Zeroyez, for what?
[04:52] <sanjud> eclipse__-> its better to use $HOME than ~/
[04:52] <shadowh511> Zeroyez: sorry, Its just that a partitoning error like that needs to have a resintall
[04:53] <BrandonB> how can I speed up Ubuntu?
[04:53] <BrandonB> How bad is Wubi compared to a real install?
[04:53] <Zeroyez> billybigrigger: i need a way to fix an ntfs file system from within ubuntu/linux
[04:53] <armanox> disable uneeded services
[04:53] <BrandonB> :\
[04:53] <BrandonB> As in programs?
[04:53] <armanox> well
[04:53] <billybigrigger> Zeroyez, oh, so why are you looking for general support?
[04:53] <Zeroyez> because the ubuntu installer forgot to resize the file system when it changed the partition size
[04:53] <armanox> in /etc/init.d
[04:53] <Patrick_O> how do I export the correct enviornments?
[04:53] <billybigrigger> Zeroyez, ask in here
[04:54] <Zeroyez> because this channel doesn't have answers
[04:54] <armanox> is the list of start up services
[04:54] <BrandonB> !wubi
[04:54] <armanox> just like windows has start up programs and services
[04:54] <armanox> most of them
[04:54] <BrandonB> yeah
[04:54] <armanox> most people don't really neec
[04:54] <armanox> like
[04:54] <sanjud> Zeroyez-> umm how did you verify that the resizing did not resize the file system? what command you used?
[04:54] <armanox> i don't need bluetooth
[04:54] <armanox> so i can disable it
[04:54] <sanjud> !who
[04:54] <shadowh511> Zeroyez: we do have answers, its just that linux can be reinstalled WITHOUT LOSING DATA
[04:54] <BrandonB> but how do I check them on Ubuntu
[04:54] <armanox> well
[04:55] <Zeroyez> shadowh511: you have no idea what you're talking about
[04:55] <armanox> one sec
[04:55] <Zeroyez> sanjud: parted tells me the filesystem says it's 500 GB
[04:55] <armanox> i think there's an easier way them what i'm about to say..
[04:55] <BrandonB> Torrents FTW!
[04:55] <BrandonB> 159 kb/s for the download
[04:55] <Zeroyez> i used the installer on ubuntu amd64 server install disc
[04:55] <Zeroyez> to resize it
[04:56] <masu3701> how do i edit the menue list file?
[04:56] <masu3701> where is it located?
[04:56] <shadowh511> masu3701: for grub?
[04:56] <sanjud> Zeroyez-> when using parted you get 500gb?  if you used df -h ?
[04:56] <BrandonB> :s
[04:57] <quibbler> masu3701: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.list
[04:57] <eclipse__> masu3701 System>prefrences>prefered applications
[04:57] <Zeroyez> it's an ntfs partition, it won't be listed under df
[04:57] <Zeroyez> it's supposed to be a 195 GB partition
[04:57] <eclipse__> masu3701 ignore what I said, I didnt read all of what you were asking
[04:57] <BrandonB> these torrents rock
[04:57] <H3l1c0pt3r> is there a way to have awn just be a launcher and not run current windows? i dont want to have to add 20 single launchers to awn (it glitches a lot)
[04:57] <redvamp128> quibbler:  don't you mean menu.lst ?
[04:57] <sanjud> Zeroyez-> if you use fdisk -l ?
[04:58] <quibbler> redvamp128: yes
[04:58] <Zeroyez> ./dev/sda1 * 1 23720 190529876 7 HPFS/NTFS
[04:58] <quibbler> masu3701: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:59] <masu3701> quibbler: thanks
[05:00] <Zeroyez> the partition is correct, and mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /mnt works
[05:00] <sanjud> !who | Zeroyez
[05:00] <masu3701> quibbler: what is the gk before sudo?
[05:00] <bohemian_> khaije1: hi, based on the last sentence in step 5, i get... "bash: /dev/usb/tkpanel0: No such file or directory"  same with  /dev/usb/tkpanel1  does it mean there are still problems on other steps i have made?
[05:00] <some1normal> any 1 can help please
[05:01] <quibbler> masu3701: you use gksudo for gui programs
[05:01] <sanjud> !ask | some1normal
[05:01] <chuxxsss> Anyone know much about dragon speak and getting it woking in ubuntu
[05:01] <quibbler> !sudo
[05:01] <masu3701> ok
[05:01] <Zeroyez> sanjud: all i need is the name of something from the repositories that can fix file systems
[05:01] <sanjud> Zeroyez-> you can mount and read/write to it okay?
[05:02] <Zeroyez> yes
[05:03] <some1normal> thanks ubuntu i'm having a swap probleme i got to activit the swap every time
[05:05] <ShipwreckZombies> I'm quite new, and attempting my first install on a laptop with Vista64. I'm just shrinking the hd now, and i'm wondering how to go about it? 305243 before shrink - i'm wondering how much I should shrink it by to accomodate Linux?
[05:06] <khaije1> bohemian_: not necesarily, the way i read 5 it sounds like it will only show if the touchscreen is connected via usb
[05:07] <khaije1> and even then it may still require a reboot once it's all configured right
[05:07] <khaije1> lets continue with the other steps then test at the end if possible
[05:07] <bohemian_> ok got it
[05:08] <bastid_raZor> some1normal; is your swap partition in fstab?
[05:09] <some1normal>  bastid_raZor:   don't think so what should i do
[05:10] <some1normal> bastid_raZor: that's what i ve got UUID=a6f60431-1807-956f-1f6f-d50746a3fac7 none swap sw
[05:11] <khaije1> gotta do some work :) bbl
[05:11] <bastid_raZor> some1normal; you should have  0 0 after that too
[05:12] <xybre> How can I get a list of packages that depend on a given package?
[05:12] <Patrick_O> sanjud: if I use complete paths in the script do I still need to export evironments?
[05:12] <quibbler> some1normal: look at /etc/fstab
[05:12] <Flannel> xybre: directly? or all of the things that depend on the things that depend on that package as well?
[05:12] <sanjud> Patrick_O-> yes, to make sure the environment is what you expect it to be
[05:13] <xybre> Flannel: justif I say "pkg-depends libfoo" it will give me all the packages that require libfoo to be installed
[05:13] <Patrick_O> sanjud: thx, I'll start reading up
[05:13] <Flannel> xybre: apt-cache rdepends package
[05:13] <some1normal>  bastid_raZor  quibbler like that UUID=a6f60431-1807-956f-1f6f-d50746a3fac7 none swap sw 0 0
[05:13] <xybre> danke Flannel
[05:14] <sanjud> Patrick_O-> you can also ask people at #bash channel to make sure am not giving you bad info
[05:14] <PastorBones> how would I ruin a .net program with my ubuntu?
[05:14] <PastorBones> run* not ruin
[05:14] <bastid_raZor> some1normal; are you sure the UUID is correct? if so that looks correct
[05:14] <xybre> Ah okay. Cool. Now I gotta figure out why Ubuntu thinks installing OpenOffice base on a headless server is a good idea.
[05:14] <quibbler> some1normal: similar yes...do you have a line with swap in it?
[05:15] <p1oooop> hey
[05:16] <p1oooop> anyone know how to open a file with root permissions?
[05:16] <some1normal> bastid_raZor:  yes thanks quibbler no other swap thanks
[05:16] <bastid_raZor> p1oooop; use sudo or gksudo for graphical
[05:16] <homeskill> what's the 'srv' directory for?
[05:16] <p1oooop> bastid_raZor: thanks
[05:16] <p1oooop> I'll try
[05:17] <p1oooop> thanks
[05:19] <Zeroyez> looking for fix to "ERROR: Current NTFS volume size is bigger than the device size!"
[05:22] <p1oooop> anyone know how I can edit a file with root permissions
[05:23] <p1oooop> a configuration file
[05:23] <p1oooop> ok
[05:23] <p1oooop> ok
[05:23] <p1oooop> ok
[05:23] <bastid_raZor> p1oooop; what type of editor are you trying to use?
[05:24] <p1oooop> bastid_raZor: umm, text deitor
[05:24] <p1oooop> *editor
[05:25] <bastid_raZor> p1oooop; which one?
[05:25] <p1oooop> the generic one...
[05:25] <p1oooop> on ubuntu
[05:25] <lstarnes> p1oooop: gedit?
[05:25] <p1oooop> yup
[05:26] <p1oooop> also, I may use Screem, the HTML/XML editor
[05:26] <some1normal> p1oooop: sudo gedit location of the file
[05:26] <p1oooop> IC
[05:26] <p1oooop> thank you
[05:26] <p1oooop> can I use sudo Screem (location)
[05:26] <rww> xybre: aptitude why openoffice.org-base
[05:27] <p1oooop> or add files to the location?
[05:27] <lstarnes> p1oooop: graphical programs should be run witk gksudo or kdesudo, not regular sudo
[05:27] <p1oooop> IC
[05:27] <p1oooop> so gksudo screem?
[05:28] <oh_noes> If I install Ubuntu with LVM, a 2 disk RAID1 Mirror.  If I pull a disk, will the the computer still boot from the 2nd?
[05:28] <oh_noes> Or, is the mirror just for data consistency in a RUNNING OS?
[05:28] <xybre> rww, thanks, now I understand hwy it installed it, but its still retarded that it does >.<
[05:28] <p1oooop> how do I add file to a location? do I use gksudo filebrowser?
[05:29] <Zeroyez> omg
[05:29] <Patrick_O> sanjud: Thank you! got it working
[05:29] <quibbler> p1oooop: gksudo screem
[05:29] <Zeroyez> some tool called testdisk just miraculously told me my ntfs sectors were wrong and said "ok, i fix that" and now everything works
[05:29] <p1oooop> IC, but what about the file browser?
[05:30] <failers> anyone know how to force powermizer to be on level 3 all the time?
[05:30] <quibbler> ;  p1oooop: in the termina    gksudo screem /to/the/file
[05:30] <cj_sze> :)
[05:30] <cj_sze> good pm to all
[05:31] <quibbler> terminal
[05:31] <p1oooop> quibbler: I know that, but what about plain adding files to the directory using the file browser?
[05:31] <xybre> 553 GTK packages installed
[05:31] <YuLiansu> Hello. Any idea why I got this?

[05:32] <quibbler> p1oooop: start nautilus from the terminal  with gksudo nautilus
[05:32] <p1oooop> quibbler: thanks
[05:33] <Flannel> p1oooop: Because we use sudo, for a variety of reasons.  You can read about why on the following page.  Also, please stop using the enter key as punctuation.
[05:33] <YuLiansu> anyone.. knows .. about nfs4? All other PC connects fine (FreeBSD, Gentoo Linux)
[05:33] <Flannel> !sudo | p1oooop
[05:33] <p1oooop> ubottu: thanks
[05:33] <xybre> Okay, so, is there an easy way to remove all th eGUI apps that ubuntu has automatically installed on a headless VPS?
[05:34] <wolter> hi
[05:34] <YuLiansu> why not you guys just allow plooooop to be root? if he prefers. you can be root by "sudo passwd" and login as root as in any other system.
[05:34] <wolter> i downloaded driconf to get rid of screen tearing
[05:34] <wolter> but i can't run it because "libGL is too old"
[05:34] <Flannel> !noroot | YuLiansu
[05:34] <YuLiansu> However often or always being root itself isn't good idea.
[05:35] <YuLiansu> ubottu: was there really a problem? I used that way for a year or two until I got used to sudo this year.
[05:35] <vladc> How can I freeze a process that doesn't run in a terminal (ie. I can't use ctrl-z)?
[05:36] <Flannel> YuLiansu: There's no real need for a root account, and enabling it does have some drawbacks (security mostly, see that wiki page).  If you absolutely have to have a root terminal, you can use `sudo -i`
[05:36] <p1oooop> Flannel: wow, smart bot
[05:37] <YuLiansu> Flannel: which wiki page? I didn't google it out.
[05:37] <Flannel> YuLiansu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[05:38] <vladc> Found it: kill -STOP
[05:40] <YuLiansu> vladc: you must know kill -CONT before using kill -STOP. Oh you quit too soon.
[05:40] <bohemian_> khaije1: found out i'm not using usb model as said by the distro, one thing though, total noob thing question, how do i accomplish step 6? i keep getting no such file or directory
[05:42] <p1oooop> anyone know the difference between ubuntu desktop and ubuntu server?
[05:43] <wolter> how can i get my xorg version?
[05:43] <fung_laptop> hey guys, ubuntu absolutely refuses to detect my monitor resolution. running latest update of ubuntu, using nvidia driver 177.82. tried modifing xorg and din't work. help please?
[05:43] <p1oooop> naw really...
[05:43] <usser> p1oooop, server doesn't have xorg and all the bloat of the desktop
[05:44] <Flannel> p1oooop: server has no GUI by default, and asks which servers you want to install during the install process.
[05:44] <WordMoo> When Jaunty (whatever it is) releases , will it be possible to go Hardy -> Jaunty ?
[05:44] <dli> how to connect to dsl (pppoeconf) for new install?
[05:44] <p1oooop> Flannel: sounds hard :(
[05:44] <WordMoo> or is that not known at this time ?
[05:44] <bohemian_> wolter: sudo X -version
[05:44] <Flannel> WordMoo: You'll have to go through Intrepid.
[05:44] <Flannel> WordMoo: 8.04 -> 8.10 -> 9.04
[05:44] <dli> I tried pppoeconf, and rebooted, but eth0 still not configured
[05:44] <WordMoo> Flannel, 8.10 uh.. lets see how I can put it..
[05:45] <WordMoo> Flannel, Is worthless to me
[05:45] <WordMoo> On this computer anyway
[05:45] <WordMoo> it magically works for the others
[05:45] <Flannel> WordMoo: If you want to upgrade to 9.04, you'll have to upgrade through it, even if its only for a few minutes.
[05:45] <khaije1> bohemian_: it sounds like these are binary calibration and testing utilities, not clear if they require root....
[05:46] <wolter> how do i know if my xorg version is newer than 6.8 ?
[05:46] <WordMoo> OK, but will the issues be there?  My NIC doesn't ever get an IP , and some other stuff
[05:46] <wolter> i have version 1.5.2...
[05:46] <WordMoo> When I arrive at 9.04
[05:46] <p1oooop> Flannel: can you use it VIA remote control?
[05:46] <WordMoo> that is
[05:46] <Flannel> WordMoo: You can upgrade with a CD (the alternate CD)
[05:46] <Flannel> p1oooop: Can you use what?
[05:46] <WordMoo> Flannel, I mean , will the issues of Intrepid be there in Jaunty , or will they be fixed?
[05:46] <p1oooop> Flannel: ubuntu server edition
[05:46] <Flannel> WordMoo: #ubuntu+1 is the place to go to ask Jaunty questions right now.  I have no idea.
[05:46] <khaije1> bohemian_: these files should be buried in the directories of the file you extracted, you can try running them as a regular user first, if they say they require root you can copy them to /usr/bin/ as root
[05:47] <bohemian_> khaije1: ok i'll try that
[05:47] <Flannel> p1oooop: You can use it remotely, yes.  Over ssh is the most popular configuration
[05:47] <WordMoo> Hrm, Perhaps staying on LTS' are a good idea.
[05:47] <Flannel> WordMoo: Certainly nothing wrong with that.  Especially if nothing in the newer versions strikes you as must-have
[05:48] <p1oooop> Flannel: so, do I have to modify anything to use it over ssh?
[05:48] <Flannel> p1oooop: you'll have to install openssh-server, but apart from that, no.
[05:48] <WordMoo> Flannel, Any idea on a LTS release ?  Perhaps after Jaunty ?
[05:48] <bobbie4> I love the ubuntu!
[05:48] <p1oooop> Flannel: thank you
[05:48] <p1oooop> I also love ubintu
[05:49] <p1oooop> *ubuntu
[05:49] <Flannel> WordMoo: 10.04 is the next LTS
[05:50] <WordMoo> "A date has already been fixed: the next LTS (Long Term Support ) Version will be released April 2010."
[05:50] <bohemian_> khaije1: ok copied all 3 files to usr/bin/  proceeding to step 9
[05:51] <Flannel> WordMoo: Not only that, but in all likelyhood it'll be the 22nd
[05:51] <WordMoo> Flannel, April 22nd ?
[05:51] <p1oooop> you think I can install apache and mysql in Xubuntu?
[05:51] <quibbler> WordMoo: at 02:17
[05:51] <Flannel> p1oooop: You definately can.
[05:51] <Flannel> !lamp | p1oooop
[05:51] <macvr> hi all... i have a problem while watching streaming videos, in firefox... the screensaver doesnt recognize that the video is playing in fullscreen mode and gets activated every few minutes... how do i prevent this?
[05:51] <p1oooop> Flannel: awesome!
[05:52] <Lartza_> nobody has been able to tell me does fglrx work?
[05:52] <Lartza_> Does it?
[05:52] <quibbler> macvr: turn off the screensaver
[05:52] <Flannel> WordMoo: I believe its (as a rule of thumb, not a rule, mind you) the penultimate Thursday of the month.
[05:52] <Lartza_> I'm having toruble with Fedora and fglrx
[05:52] <Lartza_> *trouble
[05:52] <WordMoo> Like Thanksgiving ?
[05:52] <Flannel> Lartza_: Try #fedora
[05:52] <WordMoo> lol
[05:52] <macvr> quibbler: othere than that could nothing be done?
[05:52] <quibbler> marve: adjust the time
[05:53] <Ademan> are ubuntu's *.deb files signed? or just each repository's package *list* ?
[05:53] <Lartza_> I want to know if fglrx works in ubuntu
[05:53] <WordMoo> Anyway, since I'm going to keep this version of Ubuntu .  Is it possible for me to readjust the sizes of my partitions without having to do a new install ?
[05:53] <wolter> could it be dangerous to install xlibmesa3-gl?
[05:53] <Lartza_> since thats the next option, i dont want to try anything new, fedora is what i call new to me now
[05:53] <WordMoo> IE: I kept windows at 300 GBs
[05:53] <billa> hi, I require some assistance setting up my trendnet router to an adsl modem . which would be appropiate channel/server to get help ?
[05:53] <bohemian_> khaije1: ok i got a bunch of rc.d from rc0.d to rc6.d, shall i edit everything or just 0 or 6? this is step 9
[05:53] <WordMoo> And I'm about out of space
[05:53] <Lartza_> Dlannel: I won't ask Will fglrx work in ubuntu in #fedora...
[05:54] <macvr> quibbler: i know that those are the workarounds.... but is there anyway so that the gnome recongizes this?
[05:54] <Flannel> Lartza_: An easy way to find out if it works on your hardware is to burn a liveCD and try it.
[05:54] <khaije1> bohemian_: i don't remember where rc.local is (not in front of a unix box) ask the channel, im sure someone knows
[05:54] <Flannel> WordMoo: You can.  You'll need to boot to the liveCD and resize/move stuff with gparted
[05:54] <Lartza_> Can I install fglrx with livecd to try it?
[05:54] <Flannel> Lartza_: yes
[05:55] <Lartza_> hmm then maybe
[05:55] <quibbler> macvr: i'don't know..i've never had that problem
[05:55] <WordMoo> Flannel, Just go to the installer and click "manual" and resize it up how I want it, then quit the install ?
[05:55] <Lartza_> but there even is fglrx? :P
[05:55] <WordMoo> Flannel, Before I actually go to install anything ?
[05:55] <Flannel> WordMoo: no, no.  Don't start the installer at all.  Go to System > Administration > Gnome PArtition MAnager
[05:55] <bohemian_> anyone knows where directory to find "rc.local" in ubuntu 8.10?
[05:55] <macvr> quibbler: how come? dont u use videos from the net? or are ur settings delayed?
[05:55] <khaije1> bohemian_: if you can't find it rc.5 is a close substitue
[05:56] <Lartza_> does DVD have LIVE?
[05:56] <bohemian_> ok thanks
[05:56] <WordMoo> Oh.
[05:56] <Flannel> Lartza_: It does.  But that's 4.some odd GB vs a 700MB CD if you just want to try it out.
[05:56] <Lartza_> the cd wont fit
[05:56] <Lartza_> I want reburnable
[05:56] <NayMyo> hi
[05:56] <Lartza_> my reburnable is 650mb :S
[05:57] <Flannel> Lartza_: You should actually be able to burn the CD to DVD media without any issues.
[05:57] <NayMyo> i wanna to create CD and DVD with DRM
[05:57] <WordMoo> Flannel,  I don't see that in the installed version I have , would it be possible for me just to do it now?  IE: get gparted
[05:57] <Lartza_> Flannel: I have tried it once, didn't boot from it
[05:57] <quibbler> macvr: i look at youtube etc ...i have a blank screen after 20mins but that doesn't worry me
[05:57] <NayMyo> no duplication allowed. no copying from it allowed
[05:57] <Lartza_> burn was fine though
[05:57] <Flannel> Lartza_: yes, the DVD has a live version.
[05:57] <rww> bohemian_: rc.local is in /etc/.
[05:57] <macvr> quibbler: oh ok...
[05:57] <RalphSpencer> Hello. I need help please. There is one partition (60 GB) on my hard drive of 80 GB  and some empty space (20 GB). When I create a partition on this empty 20 GB, XP Becomes unbootable and Ubuntu sees them as a whole (71.xx GB)...
[05:58] <Flannel> WordMoo: You can't modify the partitions you're using.  So while you would be able to shrink the windows partition, you would still have to use a liveCD to expand the others.
[05:58] <WordMoo> OK.
[05:58] <NayMyo> use paste.ubuntu.com
[05:58] <Lartza_> Flannel: I found you could burn cd image to dvd, in windows jsut nero and some others wont do it, but some programs convert the cd image to dvd image
[05:59] <Flannel> WordMoo: I was under the impression that they had it installed by default, but if not, you'll simply have to install gparted on the liveCD
[05:59] <Lartza_> Flannel: But not sure will they make it bootable in the conversion...
[05:59] <bohemian_> rww: why i didn't saw that?? thanks
[05:59] <WordMoo> Flannel, Perhaps it's not on the installed version by default ?
[06:00] <rww> WordMoo, Flannel: Gparted is on the LiveCD by default, but not on installed desktop systems.
[06:00] <WordMoo> Copy.
[06:00] <Lartza_> Flannel: Is there option to install grub from ubuntu cd/dvd?
[06:00] <Flannel> !grub | Lartza_, first link
[06:00] <lifi> hey, i have a problem shutting down my pc... its always restarting the pc, e.g. if i do "shutdown -h now" or via gnome-menu. any ideas?
[06:00] <RalphSpencer> Hello. I need help please. There is one partition (60 GB) on my hard drive of 80 GB  and some empty space (20 GB). When I create a partition on this empty 20 GB, XP Becomes unbootable and Ubuntu sees them as a whole (71.xx GB)...
[06:00] <Lartza_> thanks ill remember those
[06:00] <Lartza_> well that
[06:00] <bohemian_> khaije1: moment will reboot now
[06:01] <rww> RalphSpencer: Do you have Ubuntu running right now?
[06:01] <wolter> which is the password for a user that has no password?
[06:01] <RalphSpencer> Yep
[06:01] <Lartza_> Wait a sec! I have 8.04 live cd!
[06:01] <Lartza_> Aww... but....
[06:01] <bohemian_> khaije1: moment of truth will reboot now, if this works, i should treat you for a cup of coffee :)
[06:01] <Lartza_> Is it using the newest xorg?
[06:01] <RalphSpencer> I dont care for windows...
[06:01] <rww> wolter: There isn't one. The account is locked and you can't log into it. (root on Ubuntu, by default, is an example)
[06:02] <RalphSpencer> Just need ubuntu to be detecting the other partitions..
[06:02] <Lartza_> Someone can check their xorg version in 8.04, but wait livecd wont have updates...
[06:02] <RalphSpencer> I cant even resize the 60 GB one
[06:02] <Flannel> !info xorg hardy | Lartza_
[06:02] <rww> RalphSpencer: can you copy the output of "sudo fdisk -l" to http://paste.ubuntu.com/, then link the page it creates here?
[06:02] <RalphSpencer> Ok thanks
[06:02] <Lartza_> aww then i need 8.10 cd
[06:03] <Lartza_> since ati problems are with XOrg 7.4
[06:03] <wolter> rww, so, If i samba with a user without a password, then nobody will be able to enter?
[06:03] <WordMoo> That reminds me, What are the options for the ACPI work arounds you use to start up ? --acpi=off , and what are the other 2?
[06:03] <WordMoo> (it's the only way I could get 8.04.2 (or 8.04) to boot.
[06:04] <rww> wolter: By "without a password", do you mean with a blank password, or with a disabled account (i.e., one that has a password hash in /etc/shadow of * or !)?
[06:04] <wolter> rww, without a set password. I just created the account on users and groups and it had no password.
[06:04] <IntuitiveNipple> WordMoo: For Intrepid?
[06:04] <RalphSpencer> rww: The result of sudo fdisk -l is pasted here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/128620/
[06:05] <WordMoo> IntuitiveNipple, no
[06:05] <rww> wolter: Users and Groups makes you put in a password when you create the user :/
[06:05] <WordMoo> Intrepid would boot, install, and everything.  However, it (I guess) wouldn't work with my NIC
[06:05] <wolter> hm..
[06:05] <wolter> i must've forgoten it.
[06:05] <IntuitiveNipple> WordMoo: So which release do you want the options for?
[06:05] <wolter> thats bad.
[06:05] <wolter> it means it wont fix my samba/ftp sharing.
[06:06] <WordMoo> 8.04.2 (Hardy)
[06:06] <IntuitiveNipple> WordMoo: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-hardy.git;a=blob;f=Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt;h=e862271ae3becfab2d7cf678b85d3a75e9ca01bc;hb=HEAD
[06:07] <WordMoo> IntuitiveNipple, I just need the options that where given in Wubi
[06:07] <WordMoo> I know there was 3
[06:07] <matabele> !samba
[06:07] <p1oooop> hey, does anyone know anything about samba
[06:07] <RalphSpencer> Sir rww?
[06:08] <p1oooop> can someone help me with the group my computer is im
[06:08] <p1oooop> *in
[06:08] <p1oooop> I want it in mshome but it is in workgroup
[06:08] <dli> any pppoe (dsl)howto?
[06:08] <IntuitiveNipple> WordMoo: There are *many* ACPI kernel options, so you'd need to check the Wubi docs to recall the ones you are referring to
[06:08] <rww> RalphSpencer: Okay. Linux is seeing you as having two NTFS partitions. One is 72GB, and the other is 8GB. I'm guessing you also have a 2GB USB drive plugged in or something.
[06:08] <RalphSpencer> Yep
[06:09] <RalphSpencer> Yeah, its my flash drive
[06:09] <matabele> ﻿p1oooop: edit your smb.conf
[06:09] <rww> RalphSpencer: Can you also pastebin the output of mount, please?
[06:09] <matabele> your will see >> workgroup = WORKGROUP, then change it
[06:09] <RalphSpencer> Could you give me the exact command?
[06:09] <p1oooop> matabele: where's  that?
[06:09] <rww> RalphSpencer: just "mount"
[06:10] <RalphSpencer> Oh thanks
[06:10] <RalphSpencer> sure
[06:10] <p1oooop> matabele: remember, I am a newb
[06:10] <matabele> gksudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf
[06:10] <p1oooop> thanks
[06:11] <quibbler> dli: look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=239815
[06:11] <RalphSpencer> Sir: The output of 'mount' is pasted here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/128622/
[06:11] <matabele> ﻿p1oooop: then you will have to restart samba
[06:11] <WordMoo> IntuitiveNipple, acpi=off noapic nolapic
[06:11] <matabele> sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[06:11] <p1oooop> ic
[06:11] <p1oooop> thanks
[06:12] <IntuitiveNipple> WordMoo: noapic and nolapic *are not* ACPI options, they are interrupt controller options
[06:12] <WordMoo> IntuitiveNipple, I think I had to use --acpi=off --noapic --nolapic , instead of just the acpi=off noapic nolapic
[06:12] <IHalak> Hello
[06:12] <IntuitiveNipple> WordMoo: hence the confusion :)
[06:12]  * WordMoo shrugs
[06:12] <WordMoo> IntuitiveNipple, Perhaps the Wubi team should be spanked
[06:13] <ovide> Anyone know why xchat gives me a "null chan list" for so many servers?
[06:13] <matabele> ﻿p1oooop: if you get your computer connected to the network can you send me your smb.conf, mine seems to have something really wrong with it
[06:13] <IntuitiveNipple> maybe your eyes re-ordered the letters... that gets many people (apic and acpi look very alike)
[06:14] <rww> RalphSpencer: Okay. So you're running off the LiveCD right now?
[06:14] <RalphSpencer> Yes, sir.
[06:15] <blufade> i dont have sound while playing through media players .....but sound works well within the browser(youtube)
[06:15] <RalphSpencer> Because the install of Ubuntu doesn't have Partition Editor.
[06:15] <rww> RalphSpencer: Okay. And the first partition (the large one) is the one with your Windows data on it. The second one is blank?
[06:15] <blufade> no system sounds aswell
[06:15] <RalphSpencer> Yes, sir.
[06:16] <blufade> how do i restart sound modules alone ?
[06:17] <ce_manizzzz> hdweyrduwey

[06:17] <ce_manizzzz> h
[06:17] <bohemian_> :(
[06:17] <p1oooop> matabele: umm, I think you were mistaken on that last one, restart is not a command
[06:17] <matabele> heh, I just used it
[06:18] <rww> RalphSpencer: Okay. Open up the Partition Editor (System > Administration > Partition Editor), make sure it says /dev/sda in the top-right, then right click on /dev/sda2 (the small partition) and click Delete. That'll get rid of the extraneous blank partition. To resize the other one, right-click on it, click "Unmount", then right-click again and choose Resize.
[06:18] <RalphSpencer> Please give me some time to do that, sir.
[06:18] <quibbler> blufade: sudo alsa force-reload
[06:18] <IntuitiveNipple> rww: Would it be a good idea to confirm sda2 doesn't actually contain anything before deleting it?
[06:19] <rww> IntuitiveNipple: He said it doesn't...
[06:19] <khaije1> bohemian_: if this effort doesn't work you may want to try a new version if there is one available... btw can you pastebin the output to lspci pls?
[06:19] <RalphSpencer> What size should I set, sir?
[06:19] <matabele> ﻿p1oooop: are you sure that samba is even running?
[06:19] <IntuitiveNipple> rww: I know :)
[06:20] <blufade> ﻿﻿quibbler: sudo: alsa: command not found
[06:20] <dli> quibbler, not helpful, couldn't download anything without DSL first
[06:20] <rww> RalphSpencer: Whatever size you'd like, as long as there's at least 5-10GB of free space left for Ubuntu.
[06:20] <RalphSpencer> Oh, okay..
[06:21] <rww> RalphSpencer: Anyway. Once that's resized, you should be able to install Ubuntu normally. There should be an option during install, in the partitioning step, to use free space for Ubuntu.
[06:21] <bohemian_> khaije1: http://pastebin.com/m43c3bebd

[06:23] <Meneertje> anyone has experienced installing from USB the remix?
[06:23] <keith_> Is there a way to make Ubuntu treat an internal drive like it does a USB drive. ie, automount it without me having to add lines to fstab, etc?
[06:23] <rww> mattias: There's a #web channel for general web development questions...
[06:23] <mattias> plooop, it seems that i have a serverside problem with either my code or my code
[06:24] <mattias> rww, asked there already
[06:24] <p1oooop> look in the error file
[06:24] <blufade> no
[06:24] <mattias> rww, no answer tought i rather ask here.
[06:24] <p1oooop> it usually has the place of the error
[06:24] <Meneertje> anyone has installed thet netbook remix?

[06:26] <quibbler> blufade: then ask your question again and maybe someone else can help you.
[06:26] <mattias> ploooop, Yes, her is the problem. Im developing a website, everything seems to be fine on any webbrowser except of IE, as you probably can imagine, but it's not a regular problem.... Except some css issues the website won't display any of the images inserted by *.php, the images is displayed properly from the css and everything looks nice from any other browser
[06:26] <blufade> actuallly sound will be back if i restart my computer.....
[06:26] <p1oooop> matabele: yes, now, LOL
[06:26] <blufade> ill try that
[06:27] <mattias> plooop, It will display (in some cases) the right size of the image, but just with a border and a red X on the right end corner
[06:27] <p1oooop> mattias: huh, I've had that problem
[06:28] <mattias> ploooop, any idéa how tow solve it ?
[06:28] <FrikkinLazer> mat: can you see that image if you browse to is with IE directly? (not rhough webserver)
[06:28] <p1oooop> mattias: nope
[06:28] <simion314> hi, if my root file system is mounted read only (because an error) can i mounted as writeble?
[06:28] <p1oooop> mattias: people complain about the same thing on my site
[06:28] <zhaozhou> simion314: mount -o remount,rw /
[06:29] <mattias> plooooop, so you think it's a clientside problem ?
[06:29] <matabele> ﻿p1oooop: please could you send your smb.conf?
[06:29] <FrikkinLazer> mattias: can you save the image on your desktop locally, and then open it in IE?
[06:29] <p1oooop> matabele: ok
[06:29] <mattias> ploooop, it's not a small problem though, my websites concept is to show pictures
[06:29] <p1oooop> LOL, IC
[06:29] <simion314> zhaozhou: thx
[06:30] <rww> mattias: do you happen to have the URL of a broken page for me to look at?
[06:30] <mattias> FrikkinLazer, Currently im not infront of a windows computer.
[06:30] <mattias> FrikkinLazer, Why do you ask ? I may be able to get my hands on one later on today
[06:31] <mattias> rww, ofcourse
[06:31] <FrikkinLazer> mattias: Im thinking that the IE cannot open those images at all, and then it might not be a webserver problem, or a problem with your site. If you save the image locally, and IE STILL cant open it, then you know its not your server.
[06:31] <sagredo> hi friends. I've created an alarm, but it is not going off at the set time.
[06:31] <sagredo> Any advice?
[06:32] <sagredo> I need it to wake up for work!
[06:32] <rww> sagredo: which program did you use to create it?
[06:32] <sagredo> rww: alarm-clock from the repos
[06:33] <sagredo> rww: it says it's scheduled and all but alas, my selected sound file (Stereo MCs - Connected) is not playing, I tried testing it twice with future (now past) times.
[06:34] <bohemian_> khaije1: i guess i would have to use an RPM based distro :(
[06:34] <Until_It_Sleeps> bai
[06:35] <mattias> FrikkinLazer, The strangest thing is that the images is in a jpg format, nothing "fancy" like png
[06:35] <mattias> It will display png thought.
[06:35] <mattias> FrikkinLazer, it will display png though.
[06:36] <khaije1> bohemian_: there is also the possibility to use 'alien' to install the rpm
[06:36] <FrikkinLazer> mattias: Okay, well, just try opening it locally. Maybe the image is using some obscure jpg feature that the library IE uses does not support or something.
[06:36] <quibbler> dli: look here: http://www.ubuntux.org/pppoe-client  & http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=82879 & http://ubuntuliving.blogspot.com/2007/02/pppoe-with-ubuntu.html
[06:36] <khaije1> playing with it on an rpm-based distro isn't a bad idea though, if you can get it working on suse or fedora you at least know the sw works
[06:37] <mattias> FrikkinLazer, will try that, thnx for everything.
[06:37] <rww> mattias: Hmm. It's sending content-type correctly, which was the issue when I had that problem> I'm not sure what's going on either.
[06:39] <mattias> rww, okej thnx for having a look... I'll let you know whenever / if i find a solution to the problem.... Hate IE, it has made the webdevelopment a pain in the ass, why do people use such a worthless software.
[06:39] <rww> sagredo: Well, you're having better luck than I am with it. I just tried making an alarm and it crashed on me twice in a row :/
[06:40] <Lartza_> Fresh 8.04 install: Error 15
[06:40] <Lartza_> I'm live now
[06:40] <sagredo> rww: lols
[06:41] <sagredo> rww: shucks, I have to figure this out before I can go to sleep!
[06:41] <FrikkinLazer> sagredo: I guess the answer is this: It doesnt work because its broken
[06:41] <sagredo> FrikkinLazer: nice
[06:41] <FrikkinLazer> sagredo: lol
[06:41] <p1oooop> back
[06:41] <rww> FrikkinLazer, sagredo: I think the crash I'm getting is probably a bug in GTK in Jaunty. It's been happening with GIMP too. I was just explaining why I couldn't be of more help :)
[06:41] <FrikkinLazer> sagredo: isnt there another alarm software you can use?
[06:41] <p1oooop> sorry for long     .
[06:41] <Lartza_> I have Ubuntu and hopefully WIndows XP in my GRUB
[06:41] <sagredo> FrikkinLazer: I'm sure there is
[06:42] <Lartza_> but wont get there because of Error 15
[06:42] <sagredo> FrikkinLazer: but I haven't found it yet :D
[06:42] <sagredo> FrikkinLazer: let's see what google has
[06:42] <FrikkinLazer> Does anyone have experience developing software in Linux?
[06:43] <Lartza_> GRUB won't start, Error 15
[06:44] <jrgp> FrikkinLazer, check the C wiki
[06:45] <Lartza_> I'll reboot quick
[06:46] <dli_> howto start pppoe manually? ifconfig eth0 up; pon dsl-provider
[06:46] <FrikkinLazer> jrgp: Im actually looking for advice on what technology to use. I need to write software that opens up LOTS of tcp sockets, read stuff, write stuff, etc. Windows could not handle it, now I have to go over to Linux. (In windows it was in C#).
[06:46] <jrgp> FrikkinLazer, C++ and sockets
[06:46] <jrgp> there are loads of appropriate tutorials around the net
[06:47] <keith_> Is there a way to automount a usb drive from the terminal? (If you have unmounted it)
[06:48] <bohemian_> anyone can comment on the result of the ff alien conversion:  http://pastebin.com/m443f2cdf
[06:48] <bohemian_> khaije1: ^
[06:49] <phuzion> Is there any way I can get a command-line box in the top toolbar that's always open?  Or even something like OSX's Spotlight, where you can click it, and it opens real small right next to the icon?
[06:49] <Lartza_> Gosh
[06:49] <Lartza_> Still
[06:49] <Lartza_> GRUB won't start
[06:50] <Lartza_> BIOS boot's, Boot from CD: then no cd found, starts booting hd, Error 15
[06:50] <paul68> Since the last update of firefox I have this weird behavior that from time to time the window of firefox is getting underneeth my menubar on top of the screen, I have this behaviour on 2 different pcs I have to hit F11 twice to solve this does anyone have a solution for this
[06:50] <Lartza_> I removed WInXP from GRUB
[06:50] <Lartza_> Wait a sec
[06:51] <Lartza_> Could I be booting from a wrong grub? Previous Fedora install?
[06:51] <quibbler> dli_: try   sudo pppoeconf  in a terminal
[06:52] <Lartza_> Or something like that
[06:52] <Lartza_> rebooting now
[06:53] <aisukarimu> the net has change alot
[06:54] <dli_> quibbler, from plog, the problem is illegal username/passwd, the provider uses encrypted username/passwd, so, you have to dialup in windows
[06:56] <quibbler> dli_: then i'm out of ideas ask further in the room
[06:56] <vieq> hello, guys I tried to update my system & I got this http://fpaste.org/paste/5475
[06:56] <Lartza_> Should I stick to 8.04?
[06:56] <vieq> any clues?
[06:57] <Lartza_> I'll check
[06:57] <Lartza_> NO clues sorry
[06:57] <Lartza_> *No
[06:57] <Lartza_> I first need ot install updates then pdate to 8.10? Aww...
[06:57] <Lartza_> *to *update
[06:58] <jrgp> Lartza_, yes
[06:58] <vieq> Lartza_, take it an advice LTS is hell
[06:58] <Lartza_> vieq: but ati is better in this than 8.10, that woudl be the only reason to stick yet
[06:58] <Lartza_> ill just update
[06:58] <vieq> so umm guys, this message says "no space" while I do have space
[06:58] <vieq> http://fpaste.org/paste/5476
[06:59] <vieq> this so strange
[06:59] <Lartza_> first i remove unneeded packages though, wont update them
[06:59] <Lartza_> what is the root password in ubuntu?
[06:59] <rww> vieq: Did you install using Wubi?
[06:59] <rww> Lartza_: there isn't one. Use sudo instead.
[06:59] <vieq> Lartza_, sudo passwd
[06:59] <Flannel> Lartza_: there is no root password, the root account is locked.  Use sudo instead.
[07:00] <vieq> and write your own
[07:00] <rww> !noroot | vieq
[07:00] <Flannel> vieq: No, please don't recommend that here.
[07:00] <vieq> k k
[07:00] <paul68> Since the last update of firefox I have this weird behavior that from time to time the window of firefox is getting underneeth my menubar on top of the screen, I have this behaviour on 2 different pcs I have to hit F11 twice to solve this does anyone have a solution for this
[07:01] <Lartza_> ok...
[07:01] <Lartza_> Fedora people hete sudo
[07:01] <Lartza_> *hate :)
[07:01] <rww> vieq: From the look of your df output, you installed Ubuntu onto a couple of loopback files. The one mounted at / was created with 1.4GB and is, indeed, full.
[07:06] <frevidar> Hi, I'm thinking of using Ubuntu. I used to use debian about five years ago or so. Does ubuntu include everything that Debian has?
[07:07] <Lartza_> frevidar: Propably, maybe not straight from isntall
[07:07] <Lartza_> *install
[07:07] <Lartza_> And remember, Debian *.debs don't work in Ubuntu
[07:07] <frevidar> I want to install Ubuntu  primarily on a desktop machine, but I'll be doing some software development and webserving (probably just to myself though)
[07:07] <Lartza_> Will do
[07:08] <Lartza_> Easily
[07:08] <likeafox> Yeah I wanted mine to do those things too
[07:08] <likeafox> it works fine
[07:08] <Flannel> frevidar: It doesn't include everything, no, but most things.
[07:08] <Lartza_> Like things for software developement you need to download after install.
[07:08] <lyy> i'm watching a movie with mplayer on my linux box..and would like to output the video to tv ..however, there's only the s video output and my tv is old .. is there a specific device/adapter to output video from computer to an old tv that uses the old tv connection type?
[07:09] <frevidar> lartza: thats no problem, its a similar thing with debian
[07:09] <Lartza_> Yes, just to remind you :)
[07:09] <Lartza_> Some distros can install them at install like Fedora
[07:09] <likeafox> on Ubuntu though you seem to be plagued with updates
[07:09] <likeafox> on Debian it's easy to keep up to date
[07:10] <frevidar> likeafox: what do you mean?
[07:10] <Flannel> Lartza_: You can install them at install time with Ubuntu too, if you really want to.  (I don't see a big issue with waiting though)
[07:10] <likeafox> I seem to get updates every other day
[07:10] <Lartza_> Flannel: Well if you just do the easy install you can't
[07:11] <dreamweb> hi. i am trying to give static ip to my laptop which is running ubuntu
[07:11] <Lartza_> Fedora asks do you want programs for: "Office, Program developing, Web server"
[07:11] <likeafox> on Debian stable though I hardly ever needed to update
[07:11] <dreamweb> it gets the ip but is unable to find any hosts.
[07:11] <Lartza_> likeafox: That's also the downside of debian
[07:11] <rww> likeafox: If you just want security updates, uncheck "Recommended updates" in the Updates tab of Software Sources (Sys > Admin > Software Sources)
[07:12] <Lartza_> What useful 3rd party repos were there?
[07:12] <likeafox> Heh I don't mind that much, just trying to illustrate a difference
[07:12] <Lartza_> Long time no see ubuntu
[07:12] <Lartza_> medibuntu is one
[07:12] <Lartza_> Then others?
[07:12] <quibbler> paul68: are you using compiz? if so maybe turn it off and see if you have the same problem.
[07:12] <Lartza_> Somewhere I coudl get newer or more programs
[07:13] <shear_clone> ok, why does the version of firefox in intrepid have MSIE 6.0 tacked onto the end of the user agent string?
[07:13] <Lartza_> WIneHQ repo is one too
[07:13] <shear_clone> that makes no sense
[07:13] <Lartza_> others?
[07:13] <Ga_Boi> how much of a performance hit does guild wars take in ubuntu?
[07:13] <Lartza_> Ga_Boi: More than Windows
[07:13] <Ga_Boi> X.x
[07:13] <rww> shear_clone: it doesn't for me :/
[07:13] <Lartza_> Ga_Boi: Check WIneHQ AppDB and search Guild Wars
[07:13] <Lartza_> Ga_Boi: I'm not sure will it take more
[07:14] <shear_clone> rww, interesting. i wonder if this is something one of my add ons changed
[07:14] <Lartza_> Ga_Boi: Or will it even work
[07:14] <Lartza_> Ga_Boi: I recon I have read it works
[07:14] <likeafox> I came here because I want to know how do I do administrator things that don't prompt for a password?  I just get an error saying I don't have permission :S
[07:15] <rww> shear_clone: you could check that by closing all open Firefox windows, then running "firefox -safe-mode" from the terminal
[07:15] <Lartza_> likeafox: sudo
[07:15] <frevidar> so is the "universe" component of ubuntu larger than debian?
[07:15] <Ga_Boi> hm says it runs platinum so hopefully
[07:15] <likeafox> from nautilus though
[07:15] <Ga_Boi> seeing as I can't get windows running atm.
[07:15] <likeafox> is that what the file browser is called?
[07:15] <Lartza_> Ga_Boi: Guild Wars is Platinum yes. It shuld work perfect
[07:16] <hateball> !sudo | likeafox
[07:16] <Ga_Boi> awesome
[07:16] <CentHOGG> hi, how do you update your sources list for apt, aptitude, tasksel from the command line? I would like to use the DVD as a source now that I've installed from the CD. Thanks in advance
[07:16] <likeafox> I want to use a file browser to work with files I need permission for
[07:16] <shear_clone> rww, it's the same
[07:16] <Lartza_> Ga_Boi: But if it doesn't tweak some setting of Wine
[07:16] <Flannel> c
[07:16] <Ga_Boi> i can put off installing windows at least until gw2 comes out lol
[07:16] <Flannel> CentHOGG: sudo apt-cdrom add
[07:16] <quibbler> likeafox: you can run root nautilus from a terminal with  gksudo nautilus
[07:16] <CentHOGG> Flannel: thanks alot :)
[07:16] <myron> what is stored in the /dev folder?
[07:16] <Dexi> hey guys im getting "The theme will not look as intended because the required GTK+ theme endinge is not installed"  how do i find out what/where that engine is?
[07:16] <Lartza_> Ga_Boi: And set Guild Wars graphics lower for example
[07:16] <shear_clone> rww, do you know the bog standard firefox 3 user agent? i can just override the one in there.
[07:17] <myron> I know that you use the folder to mount devices, but what is that folder?
[07:17] <likeafox> Okay I'll try that
[07:17] <quibbler> likeafox: be careful!
[07:17] <Lartza_> Dexi: Install GTK+?
[07:17] <Dexi> i thought i did have that lol
[07:17] <halycon> I have a hotkey set for the hamster time tracking applet(Super+H) that does not work and I also have a keyboard shortcut(shift+capslock) set in the keyboard preferences and they both stopped working all of a sudden
[07:17] <likeafox> Thanks for the warning
[07:17] <Lartza_> Dexi: Maybe you have GTK :)
[07:17] <Dexi> you may be right
[07:17] <Lartza_> Search GTK from Synaptic
[07:17] <Dexi> whats the package name for gtk_?
[07:17] <Dexi> gtk+*
[07:17] <likeafox> Oh also is there a shortcut to get a terminal?
[07:17] <Lartza_> Not sure, wait
[07:18] <Dexi> lol i can search, dont bother
[07:18] <Lartza_> Ok :)
[07:18] <revertTS> is there an easy way to do an encrypted server install?  the alt cd seems to only allow a full installation...
[07:18] <myron> like a fox: main menu > accessories > terminal
[07:18] <likeafox> myron: shorter!
[07:18] <Dexi> hmm
[07:19] <Lartza_> Dexi: What theme is it?
[07:19] <Dexi> Lartza_: i see GTK-chtheme and gtk-qt-engine
[07:19] <FearMoth> Hi, I know this is off-topic but maybe someone in here can help me. My SCSI cable has a connector that doesn't seem to work, is it ok to skip that connector and use the next one?
[07:19] <Dexi> Technix after five Lartza_
[07:19] <myron> likeafox: I don't know of one, but you can set up a hot key combination to open terminal fast
[07:19] <Flannel> revertTS: Choose the "command line system" from the alternate CD initial menu (I think they moved it to a f3/f4 additional option thing dueto confusion)
[07:19] <Flannel> FearMoth: #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:19] <Lartza_> Dexi: WHere did you get it?
[07:19] <Dexi> but also, many of my themes give me that error
[07:19] <Lartza_> *Where
[07:19] <revertTS> Flannel: thanks :)
[07:20] <Lartza_> Dexi: try sudo apt-get install gtk-engines gtk2-engines
[07:20] <Dexi> Lartza_: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Technix+Ater+Five?content=100217
[07:20] <myron> likeafox: main menu > system > preferences > keyboard shortcuts
[07:20] <Lartza_> Wait a sec
[07:20] <quibbler> likeafox: in configuration editor go to /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_terminal and give it a key
[07:20] <Lartza_> Dexi: Yea install gtk-engines and gtk2-engines
[07:20] <Dexi> couldnt find package gtk-engine
[07:20] <Dexi> s
[07:20] <Lartza_> That's waht I would do, but I'm not any pro
[07:21] <Dexi> and gtk2 is already newest
[07:21] <rww> shear_clone: sorry, I stepped out for a second. Mine is "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0.7) Gecko/2009030516 Ubuntu/8.10 (intrepid) Firefox/3.0.7"
[07:21] <CentHOGG> anybody here 3dfx?
[07:21] <myron> what is stored in the /dev folder? I know that you use the folder to mount devices, but what are the files that are stored in that folder?
[07:21] <quibbler> likeafox:  you can start the editor with  gconf-editor
[07:21] <Lartza_> Dexi: Did you install the theme correctly?
[07:21] <shear_clone> rww, tyvm
[07:21] <Dexi> Lartza_: it said i did
[07:22] <Lartza_> Dexi: Hmm...
[07:22] <myron> are they drivers?
[07:22] <likeafox> thanks
[07:23] <rww> myron: They're not normal files. They're called "character devices" and "block devices", and are kinda like pointers to or from different parts of your computer. For example, there's /dev/sda, a pointer to your hard drive, and /dev/random, a pointer to a random number generator.
[07:23] <rww> myron: They're not pointers in the same sense as Windows shortcuts or Linux symlinks, though... it's confusing to explain :/
[07:24] <Lartza_> Dexi: Are you using 8.10?
[07:24] <Dexi> yes
[07:24] <myron> I understand now. I was just curious (if they were links) why you could not access the devices through them without mounting them
[07:25] <myron> for example cd /dev/cdrom won't work until its mounted to another folder like /media/cdrom
[07:25] <CentHOGG> xfce is hard for noobs
[07:26] <myron> rww: is there a command to tell which device is using which link in the /dev folder?
[07:26] <wolf_> ok im having something really weird happen, everytime i do a find -name *.avi I get this find: paths must precede expression: Scrubs - My Big Bird.avi
[07:26] <Lartza_> Dexi: I doubt but it could need gtk-qt-engine or gtk2-sharp2
[07:26] <Lartza_> *gtk-sharp2
[07:26] <rww> myron: If you access the drive directly, you get the underlying data in the filesystem, which is a bunch of very complicated stuff that looks like gibberish. One of mount's jobs is to translate that gibberish into files and folders when you mount a partition.
[07:26] <Lartza_> After that I'm out of clues
[07:27] <rww> myron: It depends on what sort of device, and what sort of info you want. For partitions, "sudo fdisk -l" and "mount" (without options) have the basics.
[07:27] <likeafox> Guys, is this a problem?: when I did gksudo nautilus it told me this: ** (nautilus:25328): WARNING **: Unable to add monitor: Operation not supported
[07:27] <likeafox> SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
[07:27] <FloodBot1> likeafox: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:28] <hellmitre> I'm wondering how to write a script to copy any files matching *.avi or *.mov and so on in the entire filesystem to a specific place
[07:28] <Lartza_> CentHOGG: How?
[07:28] <doc``> how do i see which internetconnection is active, wired or wireless
[07:28] <myron> likeafox: that should be ok, that sounds like a normal output
[07:28] <hellmitre> anyone have any clues how to get cp to work with multiple filenames and wildcards?
[07:28] <doc``> i mean i have them both connected, but which one is doing the transmitting
[07:29] <likeafox> Well okay.
[07:29] <CentHOGG> Lartza_: hi, like how do you check your hardware or switch a soundcard?
[07:29] <maalicious> hullo all!!
[07:29] <rww> hellmitre: You're trying to copy multiple files to a directory?
[07:29] <revertTS> is it possible to use the encrypted installer with a different partition scheme?
[07:29] <hellmitre> yessir, rww
[07:29] <hellmitre> multiple files anywhere in the filetree
[07:29] <hellmitre> starting from root
[07:29] <Dexi> Lartza_: it wasnt gtk-qt but im checking sharp2 right now
[07:30] <blueeyez_> Does anybody know how to set up a external dvd burner in ubuntu?
[07:30] <simplexio> blueeyez_: in theory its easy, just plug it in
[07:30] <hellmitre> got any ideas, rww?
[07:30] <rww> hellmitre: cp /etc/example /home/rww/test* /foo/bar/baz /path/to/destination/directory/
[07:30] <Lartza_> CentHOGG: Sorry haven't used Xfce much, but how can you more easily do it in Gnome?
[07:30] <myron> rww: I have two cd/dvd drives, one is a cd-rw/dvd-rw and one is a cd-rw/dvd-r. I am trying to enable DMA on the dvd-rw. So I need to find out which drive is using which link in /dev
[07:30] <rww> hellmitre: if one of the sources is a directory, you'll need "cp -R" instead of cp.
[07:31] <Lartza_> CentHOGG: ANd by soundcard you mean hardware or software(ALSA etc.)
[07:31] <CentHOGG> Lartza_: well in gnome the controls are kinda like windows
[07:31] <blueeyez_> I have plugged it in, but nothing happens
[07:31] <hellmitre> thanks very much, rww; I'm trying it now
[07:31] <CentHOGG> Lartza_: in XFCE i can't find the same controls
[07:31] <simplexio> myron: ls /dev/disk/by-path/ -la
[07:31] <CentHOGG> noob
[07:31] <Dexi> Lartza_: neither of those :P lol i may just be doomed here...
[07:32] <CentHOGG> brb
[07:33] <hellmitre> rww: I'd like to achieve this essentially, if it worked: cp -r *.avi /destination/directory (and have it go through the entire filesystem copying those matching files to the destination directory)
[07:33] <Lartza_> Dexi: But your problem is easy, you should hear what I did yesterday... WIndows install, twice, Fedora install, kernelmod ati drivers then wait until evening to get help to recreate initrd and still not working :)
[07:33] <simplexio> myron: or ls -la /dev/disk/by-id/ may be more informative
[07:33] <rww> myron: How about "cat /proc/scsi/scsi"?
[07:33] <Dexi> haha Lartza_ ive had some pretty bad problems
[07:34] <Dexi> i installed ubuntu 6 times in 1 week before i got it right
[07:34] <Dexi> in the process, i killed windows
[07:34] <homeskill> how come when i click System > Administration > Users and Groups t doesnt let me create a new group (everything is dimmed)?
[07:34] <rww> myron: wait, never mind, maybe not :/
[07:34] <simplexio> Dexi: :), i mean how hard it can be
[07:34] <mmcr> Dexi: dpkg-reconfigure helps a lot.
[07:34] <Lartza_> Dexi: Lol? Ubuntu is easy to install :)
[07:34] <rww> homeskill: click the Unlock button.
[07:34] <rww> hellmitre: Oh, I see what you mean. You'll need the find command for that.
[07:34] <homeskill> thanks
[07:34] <Dexi> haha yes it is, but i messed stuff up post-install that was just a LOT easier to correct by reinstalling
[07:35] <hellmitre> how do I get the find command to pipe it to cp then, rww?
[07:35] <Dexi> mmcr whats that do?
[07:36] <mmcr> Dexi: man dpkg-reconfigure can explain with better details.
[07:36] <rww> hellmitre: find / -name "*.avi" | xargs -0 cp -t /path/to/target/
[07:36] <hellmitre> rww: you're a god
[07:36] <rww> hellmitre: not sure if that'll work, but you'll need something like that. http://dmiessler.com/study/find/ has more information.
[07:36] <hellmitre> :D
[07:36] <myron> perfect, that tells me what I need to know
[07:37] <DaveTM> i'm downloading a mass of updates for jaunty, and i'm about 1/2 way through. if i sleep my laptop, will the downloads resume when i wake it? or will it start them from scratch ?
[07:37] <mmcr> also if you want to keep a file. find / -name "*.avi" > myvids.txt
[07:37] <zgmf-x42s> hey all, any remote desktop gurus in here?  lol.  trying to figure out how to access my system over the net, not on the same network, can anyone help out please??
[07:37] <dudus> rww: find / -name "*.avi" -print0 | xargs -0 cp -t /path/to/target/
[07:37] <myron> I was following a guide to enable DMA for one of the drives that suggested using /dev/hdd. shouldn't hdd be a hard drive?
[07:37] <shear_clone> hellmitre, you can do " find / -name *.avi >> testfile ; for i in `cat testfile`; do cp $i /path/to/dest ; done "
[07:37] <shear_clone> that should work
[07:37] <shear_clone> oh, rww already got you one
[07:38] <frevidar> is there much difference when it comes to configuring hardware between debian and ubuntu? I haven't used linux for a good five years (as a my own desktop that is) for hardware that is maybe three years old, is it somewhat plug and play?
[07:38] <rww> DaveTM: It'll resume. Packages that are downloaded but not installed will be cached and don't need to be re-downloaded.
[07:38] <simplexio> myron: ls -la /dev/disk/by-id there you get link to what ever hd? file, or you can actually use device from there
[07:39] <DaveTM> rww: awesome, cheers! that makes me less reluctant to move the system :)
[07:39] <mmcr> zgmf-x42s: what tool are you using ?
[07:39] <frevidar> I'm kind tossing up between debian and ubuntu. I don't think I need the six month release cycle of ubuntu, because anything I really want bleeding edge six months is still too long anyway.
[07:39] <zgmf-x42s> mmcr: just normal remote desktop with ubuntu 8.10
[07:40] <internets> hi , where can i find the ubuntu picture - you know, people of different ethnicities holding hands, pictured from above
[07:40] <myron> actually the output told me that the cdroms were using scd0 and scd1
[07:40] <badserii> frevidar: there is a difference. Easyer is in Ubuntu (it has a easy-to-use tool).
[07:40] <mmcr> zgmf-x42s: give me one sec and I'll help you with that.
[07:40] <zgmf-x42s> mmcr: sweet, thank you!!
[07:40] <hellmitre> thanks very much shear_clone and rww
[07:40] <rww> frevidar: There are a couple of programs that I keep absolutely up to date using personal package archives. gnome-do, my torrent program, etc.
[07:41] <zgmf-x42s> mmcr: been dieing to get itt up and running, will halp SO much
[07:41] <frevidar> rww: personal package archives?
[07:41] <simplexio> myron: then you just replace hd?? with sdcd0 or 1
[07:41] <mmcr> zgmf-x42s: You might want to take a look at nxnode, nxserver and nxclient...
[07:41] <frevidar> rww: mainly, they'll be certain libraries and compilers I'd like to keep very up to date
[07:42] <rww> frevidar: They're basically mini-repositories hosted on launchpad.net with only a couple of packages in them. https://launchpad.net/~deluge-team/+archive/ppa , for example.
[07:42] <mmcr> At the same time you will be using vcnserver to create the :0 so you can connect.
[07:42] <myron> right, but what makes the devices get attached to those links?
[07:42] <mmcr> vncserver and nxserver work in certain way together but are different products.
[07:42] <lokoabreu> hi
[07:42] <rww> frevidar: You could also use one of Ubuntu's Long Term Support releases if you don't want to upgrade all the time. They're supported for three years, and there's a year or two between LTS releases.
[07:43] <lokoabreu> any tip of how to change the login screen?
[07:43] <zgmf-x42s> mmcr: yes thats what i have been reading, apparently it all comes with the ubu 8.10.  i read the tutorials, and if it was on the netowrk it works like a charm, but how to do it over the net, finding a how to isnt as easy :(
[07:43] <rww> lokoabreu: System > Administration > Login Window to change GDM preferences, themes, etc. Or did you mean something else?
[07:43] <capinvestia> hello
[07:43] <zgmf-x42s> mmcr: any tutorials that you know of by chance??
[07:44] <mmcr> Do you have a public IP in the PC you are trying to access. ?
[07:44] <capinvestia> i speak french only
[07:44] <rww> !fr | capinvestia
[07:44] <capinvestia> ok
[07:44] <lokoabreu> rww: no thats what i mean.. where can i download a nice GDM?
[07:44] <mmcr> GDM = Gnome Desktop Manager.
[07:44] <shear_clone> lokoabreu, gnome-look.org has themes
[07:44] <rww> lokoabreu: a nice theme for GDM? I use gnome-look: http://www.gnome-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=150
[07:45] <rww> lokoabreu: Once you get a theme, there's an "Add" button on the "Local"
[07:45] <rww> lokoabreu: ... tab of the Login Window program to use it.
[07:45] <num1fng> can anyone please tell me where I can find Themes and how to install them
[07:45] <zgmf-x42s> mmcr: ummm not sure, it is directly connected to my modem though, and never turns off.  well, rarely
[07:46] <lokoabreu> rww: thanks
[07:46] <rww> !pm | Tommy_nmw
[07:46] <mmcr> Send me a PM. I will try to explain a little bit more.
[07:47] <rww> num1fng: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy

[07:48] <lcng_bastl> sry
[07:48] <Dexi> what does the "Sticky" button on a toolbar do?
[07:48] <lcng_bastl> ubottu & rww i just installed oident and had to restart a few times
[07:49] <lcng_bastl> k :D
[07:52] <rww> Dexi: Sticks it to all workspaces. If it's unsticky, it's only on one workspace.

[07:58] <quibbler> paul68: try opening firefox from a terminal with  firefox -p  and create a new profile and see with that helps
[07:58] <myron> is there a way to reload /etc/hdparm.conf without rebooting?
[07:59] <mmcr> paul68: are you there ?
[08:00] <mmcr> Try: dpkg-reconfigure firefox or dpkg-reconfigure firefox-3.0 hope it helps.
[08:00] <MNZ> how do I give pulseaudio realtime priorities
[08:01] <paul68> mmcr:  yes I am here
[08:02] <mmcr> paul68: mmcr	Try: dpkg-reconfigure firefox or dpkg-reconfigure firefox-3.0 hope it helps.
[08:03] <paul68> mmcr: quibbler: thanks
[08:04] <simplexio> MNZ: edit /etc/pulse/daemon.conf , or wass it client.conf
[08:04] <blocky> if I was interested in developing an app that locked the mouse cursor within a certain area of the desktop, would that require interfacing with gnome, or xorg or compiz or all three?
[08:04] <simplexio> MNZ: but any way ther is conf file which has RT or realtime on it
[08:05] <MNZ> simplexio,  found it thanks
[08:05] <gypsymauro> there is a way to change the language of gnome on the fly? there is a widget to do that?
[08:06] <mmcr> it would be with xorg because that is the one who controls how the 'X's' behave. Gnome won't do because it's bases on xorg without Xorg there's no gnome, no kde, no compiz, etc etc etc...
[08:06] <mmcr> gypsymauro: language?
[08:06] <mmcr> it's based*

[08:08] <gypsymauro> mmcr: if I recall right kde can do that
[08:08] <CoolirisFox> Hi all
[08:08] <vin> helloo anybody pls help me
[08:08]  * mmcr checking.
[08:09] <CoolirisFox> I can't see window title bar :(
[08:09] <rww> vin: Have you read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup ?
[08:09] <magnetron> !helpersnack | rww
[08:10] <rww> CoolirisFox: Why? Is it off the edge of the screen, or do your windows not have title bars?
[08:10] <CoolirisFox> :-(
[08:10] <vin> let me read it
[08:10]  * rww munches
[08:10] <quibbler> CoolirisFox: do you have compiz enabled ...if so open compiz settings manager and check windows decorations
[08:10] <CoolirisFox> rww: mate! yesterday I just installed ubuntu-mobile pack :D
[08:10] <vin> what is the comand to c my blue tooth is der or not?
[08:10] <CoolirisFox> quibbler: ya that's true
[08:10] <mmcr> gypsymauro: This might help http://groups.google.com/group/linux.debian.user/browse_thread/thread/678993bcd28f5e69/bb67248868a48c88?lnk=raot
[08:11] <CoolirisFox> rww: off the edge of the screen
[08:11] <AxEl_F> hi all
[08:11] <rww> vin: There's instructions for that in the link I gave you.
[08:11] <CoolirisFox> quibbler: I disabled compiz but didn't work
[08:12] <rww> CoolirisFox: You can move windows by holding down the Alt key, clicking somewhere in the window, and dragging. I do that when my windows fall off the screen.
[08:12] <CoolirisFox> rww: oh! windows don't have any title bar at all!!
[08:13] <Frogzoo> after the last upgrade, ff scrolls the *cursor* not the *window* - any help?
[08:14] <rww> CoolirisFox: If you use Compiz, press Alt-F2 and type "compiz --replace", then press Run. If not, do the same, but replace "compiz" with "metacity".
[08:14] <Wapples> does anyone have a Good guide to FLASH a BIOS using ubuntu?
[08:14] <Wapples> or Tool
[08:14] <CoolirisFox> rww: ok
[08:15] <CoolirisFox> rww: I use it and did that but nothing!
[08:15] <CoolirisFox> rww: try meta?
[08:15] <rww> CoolirisFox: yeah
[08:15] <mmcr> metacity it's another window decorator.
[08:16] <CoolirisFox> rww: :(
[08:16] <rww> CoolirisFox: still not working?
[08:16] <homeskill> i have a group for apache in /etc/groups called 'www-data:x:33:' but it's not showing up in the System->Administration->Users and Groups. i even went into gconf-editor and enabled 'show all' for users. any ideas?
[08:16] <CoolirisFox> rww: is it related to installing ubuntu mobile? Default settings for Ubuntu Mobile desktops?
[08:17] <CoolirisFox> rww: and can it be a Xserver problem?
[08:18] <rww> CoolirisFox: I'm not sure if it's an Ubuntu Mobile thing, since I haven't used that (perhaps ask in #ubuntu-mobile?). Title bar rendering isn't an Xserver task, it's a window decorator (metacity or compiz) task, so probably not.
[08:19] <mmcr> CoolirisFox: What is the problem ?
[08:19] <mmcr> I missed that ne.
[08:19] <mmcr> one*
[08:19] <rww> mmcr: Window title bars aren't showing up for him.
[08:20] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: ya after installing ubuntu mobile
[08:20] <mmcr> What is he using ? Compiz, Metacity ?
[08:20] <CoolirisFox> mmrc: compiz
[08:20] <mmcr> Ok. One sec.
[08:20] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: :)
[08:21] <mmcr> What are you using gnome, kde ?
[08:21]  * mmcr waiting...
[08:21] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: Gnome
[08:21] <mmcr> try these two commands.
[08:22] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: when I open a folder it goes maximize!
[08:22] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: without title bar
[08:22] <mmcr> dpkg-reconfigure compiz && dpkg-reconfigure compiz-gnome
[08:23] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: I did
[08:23] <mmcr> You can go just by one dpkg-reconfigure compiz and then dpkg-reconfigure compiz-gnome or you can use '&&' to run both.
[08:24] <mmcr> Have you tried. aptitude update && aptitude upgrade?
[08:24] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: nope! I will
[08:24] <mmcr> Sometimes it happens because you have older versions of some libraries...
[08:24] <Frogzoo> no one knows how to make ff scroll sensibly? this cursor default is driving me crazy..
[08:24] <mmcr> CoolirisFox: Let me know.
[08:25] <devon> hey all
[08:25] <homeskill> what does chmod g+rws do?
[08:25] <mmcr> Well, let US know.
[08:25] <devon> i need some help
[08:25] <devon> how do i get a brach of a remote git repository?
[08:25] <devon> branch*
[08:25] <mmcr> homeskill: What are you doing ? Playing with a binary ? because of the 's' in you command is for Sticky bit.
[08:26] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: The following packages will be REMOVED:
[08:26] <homeskill> mmcr t is for sticky bit according to the manpage
[08:26] <mmcr> Nooo, use pastebin
[08:26] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: ok
[08:26] <mmcr> t ?
[08:26]  * mmcr checking.
[08:26] <AxEl_F> In gconf-editor I did something with my time and date and now in top panel I have correct date but time is -1h. When I press time and date on top panel I can see that time under calendar is correct. How can I change time in top panel please?
[08:26] <devon> can anyone help me please?
[08:27] <rww> homeskill, mmcr: t is sticky bit. g+s is setgid
[08:27] <rww> homeskill: for information on setgid, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Setgid
[08:27] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: http://pastebin.com/d55df6932
[08:27] <mmcr> rww: You are right, I was fooled by the 's'.
[08:28] <kelvie> what's the best way to save the "state" of a system so I can revert easily from upgrading packages from external repositories (such as PPAs)?
[08:28] <kelvie> dpkg --get-selections doesn't seem to track versions
[08:28] <mmcr> CoolirisFox: Run aptitude update like three times and then run aptitude safe-upgrade
[08:28] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: ok
[08:29] <devon> help please?

[08:30] <jiggles> god, i LOVE how fast file operations are on linux
[08:30] <mmcr> CoolirisFox: aptitude autoclean
[08:30] <jiggles> anyone have suggestions for a good place to find deals on Good computers less than $500 ?
[08:31] <mmcr> tigerdirect.com, newegg.com...
[08:31] <mmcr> craigslist.org <----  Used.
[08:31] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: http://pastebin.com/m255f6ce3
[08:31] <jiggles> mmc, thanks, but i have been all over those two over the past couple weeks... im looking for something along the lines of slickdeals.net ?
[08:31] <rww> AxEl_F: try right-clicking the clock, hitting Preferences, then under clock options, toggle between 12 hour and 24 hour (i.e., if 24 hr is selected, switch to 12 hr then back). That should reset the clock format.
[08:31] <jiggles> oh good call on craigslist
[08:31] <jiggles> lol duh!
[08:32] <devon> sorry guys.. but can you help me please?
[08:32] <mmcr> CoolirisFox: Try aptitude update && aptitude upgrade for the last time.
[08:32] <quibbler> CoolirisFox:  open compiz settings manager ( in a terminal type ccsm) and put a check on windows decorations
[08:32] <CoolirisFox> quibbler: it's checked!
[08:33] <rww> AxEl_F: okay. What's your custom format, then?
[08:33]  * mmcr that is why I don't like compiz. :D
[08:33] <rww> devon: 1) Don't follow your questions with a string of "help me!" messages, it just clutters things up for everyone. 2) Ask in #git if you don't get an answer here.
[08:33] <quibbler> mmcr: ;)
[08:34] <mmcr> quibbler: ?
[08:34] <AxEl_F> %d.%m.%Y.   %H:%M
[08:34] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: I think it is related to ubuntu mobile desktop setting :(
[08:34] <quibbler> mmcr: i agree with your assessment of compiz
[08:35] <mmcr> well then do dpkg-reconfigure to that ubuntu modile desktop package.
[08:35] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: I uninstalled it
[08:35] <mmcr> quibbler: Good. lol
[08:35] <mmcr> CoolirisFox: Uninstalled? What?
[08:35] <jiggles> mmc, killer deals on CL, thanks for reminding me of CL!
[08:35] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: remove ubuntu mobile desktop
[08:36] <mmcr> jiggles: You are welcome.
[08:36] <Lartza_> How would I be able to watch avi without use of synaptic?
[08:36] <Lartza_> Anything I could get from net that is not .deb?
[08:36] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: can I rest ubuntu desktop or gnome or something like this
[08:37] <mmcr> CoolirisFox: I don't understand your question.
[08:37] <Chiliblack> why not a .deb
[08:37] <Chiliblack> CoolirisFox, you coiuld compile vlc
[08:38] <CoolirisFox> :-/
[08:38] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: resting desktop!
[08:38] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: :(
[08:38] <Lartza_> VLC is deb/synaptic :/
[08:38] <Chiliblack> its open isn't it, compile it from source
[08:39] <mmcr> CoolirisFox: Well, it depends what you prefer. Having ubuntu mobile or having compiz <--- :S
[08:39] <Lartza_> But I don't have tools
[08:39] <Lartza_> I think
[08:39] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: I hate this ubuntu mobile :D
[08:39] <mmcr> Well if that is the case, go for it!
[08:39] <mmcr> remember, use aptitude 'purge' instead of aptitude 'remove'
[08:40] <mmcr> So you won't have junk in your computer from misc files of uninstalled apps.
[08:41] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: how can I be sure that ubuntu mobile desktop has been removed?
[08:41] <quibbler> Lartza_: are you in ubuntu?
[08:41] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: completely !
[08:41] <Lartza_> quibbler: Yes
[08:41] <quibbler> Lartza_: in a terminal do: sudo apt-get install vlc
[08:42] <Lartza_> quibbler: "﻿How would I be able to watch avi without use of synaptic?"
[08:42] <Lartza_> i meant apt and all
[08:42] <Lartza_> they are busy
[08:43] <mmcr> CoolirisFox: By using purge :D
[08:43] <CoolirisFox> mmcr: ok
[08:43] <Ububegin> Is ubuntu Fiesty still supported...
[08:43] <rww> Lartza_: It depends on the type of .avi. For some of them, you can just double-click. If they're using codecs that aren't in the default Ubuntu install, you have to get them from somewhere, and that somewhere is usually apt...
[08:43] <rww> Ububegin: no.
[08:43] <quibbler> Lartza_: synaptic is a package manager not a video player ...if you want to watch a video then you use a player like vlc
[08:43] <rww> Ububegin: well, not officially. If you need help with upgrading it or something, we can try to help.
[08:43] <quibbler> !players | Lartza_
[08:43] <Lartza_> quibbler: I want some video player without synaptic taht supports avi
[08:43] <tobago> what is an alternative to ultra edit?
[08:44] <Lartza_> But none videoplayer of those supports avi than VLC?
[08:44] <Lartza_> withuot codecs i mean
[08:44] <quibbler> Lartza_: thren install one such as vlc ....in a terminal do: sudo apt-get install vlc
[08:44] <Lartza_> quibbler: YOu don't get it synaptic is busy
[08:44] <hiedy> any idea install openvz on intrepid ?
[08:44] <quibbler> Lartza_: close synpatic
[08:45] <koshar1> Lartza or install the codecs, or better yet both

[08:45] <Ububegin> rww: Cos when I typed apt-get update... I just keep getting this kind of errors..  http://mirror.pacific.net.au feisty/multiverse Sources   404 Not Found
[08:45] <Lartza_> *sigh*
[08:45] <BrixSat> morning :D
[08:45] <Lartza_> forget it
[08:45] <Akiva1> Hello all, I just upgraded to 8.10 and it seems it wiped out some of the files in my home directory. At the moment, the most important file I've noticed was my keypassx database. Anyway know of a way I can try to recover the lost data?
[08:45] <Akiva1> It's extremely important and would be much appreciated
[08:45] <koshar1> Ububegin the 404 would suggest the repo is currently unavailable
[08:45] <BrixSat> i have a question! i use pidgin, a new version came out last leek, how can i update it? will it autoupdate?
[08:45] <rww> Ububegin: Feisty's apt repositories got moved off of the normal mirrors. They're on http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ now. You'll need to edit /etc/apt/sources.list to reflect that.
[08:46] <koshar1> Akiva1 use your backup set to retreaive the files.
[08:46] <quibbler> i have pidgin starting up when i login, however it do not start minimized but always with the buddy list open... is there a way to force it to start in a minimized state
[08:46] <Flannel> Ububegin: feisty is EOL, you need to upgrade to gutsy.  Feisty hasn't had any updates in a few months now.
[08:47] <BrixSat> quibbler:  try #pidgin ;)
[08:47] <Ububegin> Flannel: I have configured some software apps on this machine... and frankly speaking, I am bit apprensive to upgrade..
[08:48] <david_> i downloaded kiba-dock and when i got to applications and actually click the icon it does nothing any ideas?
[08:48] <dayo> Akiva1: i had some ssh and video issues after 8.04-->8.10. had to just reinstall cleanly.
[08:48] <dayo> Ububegin: go for 8.04 Hardy or 8.10 Ibex
[08:49] <koshar1> david_:  try starting it from term and see what messages go by
[08:50] <rww> Ububegin: When you decide to upgrade, take a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades . It has step by step information. That page also has the info I gave you earlier about old-releases.ubuntu.com. Since Feisty isn't getting any updates, including *security* updates, at this point, you should probably do it sooner, rather than later.

[09:14] <slimjimf1im> anybody know how to fix build-essential
[09:14] <slimjimf1im> err wait
[09:14] <slimjimf1im> not that, this
[09:14] <slimjimf1im> stdio.h: No such file or directory
[09:15] <Chiliblack> make sure you have a stdio.h
[09:15] <slimjimf1im> stdio.h is in /usr/include
[09:15] <Chiliblack> in your path
[09:15] <slimjimf1im> and i have build-essential included
[09:15] <slimjimf1im> er installed
[09:15] <slimjimf1im> ook
[09:15] <Chiliblack> where is it looking for stdio.h
[09:15] <slimjimf1im> idk
[09:15] <slimjimf1im> idk how to check
[09:16] <Chiliblack> look at the output trace it back
[09:17] <slimjimf1im> why would it need to be in my $PATH ...it's not a binary
[09:17] <quibbler> slimjimf1im: what are you trying to do
[09:17] <slimjimf1im> compile a c program
[09:19] <slimjimf1im> quibbler, Chiliblack?
[09:19] <koshar1> slimjimf1im your c proggie or one in a tarball?
[09:19] <quibbler> slimjimf1im: i can't help never compiled a c program
[09:19] <slimjimf1im> koshar1 what?
[09:20] <slimjimf1im> it's *.c
[09:20] <slimjimf1im> i ran `gcc myprog.c`
[09:20] <koshar1> slimjimf1im is it your code or did you get it in a tarball or elsewhere?
[09:20] <Chiliblack> slimjimf1im, you could try copying the file it can't find into the working directory
[09:20] <slimjimf1im> koshar1 it's my code
[09:21] <Chiliblack> I owuld think it would look there first
[09:21] <slimjimf1im> Chiliblack: that sounds horribly inefficient
[09:21] <mandar> bluetooth of my laptop is not getting detected.can anyone please help me?
[09:21] <rww> slimjimf1im: Can you copy the stdio.h #include line you're using in your program, please?
[09:21] <koshar1> slimjimf1im you may need to do some debugging
[09:22] <slimjimf1im> ohhh
[09:22] <slimjimf1im> #include < stdio.h>
[09:22] <rww> slimjimf1im: I'm guessing the extra space before the "s" is a problem ;)
[09:22] <slimjimf1im> yup that fied it

[09:29] <quibbler> haggisbasheruk: thank rww ..he pressed the big red button
[09:29] <haggisbasheruk> :)
[09:29] <wangjinqu_> hi  how can i use the "find" to find a file  in a known path
[09:29] <wangjinqu_> just give me an example
[09:30] <haggisbasheruk> xubuntu jaunty is running nice on the Aspire One :)
[09:30] <rww> wangjinqu_: There's a bunch of examples in http://linux.about.com/od/commands/a/blcmdl1_findx.htm
[09:31] <wangjinqu_> thanks
[09:31] <quibbler> wangjinqu_: Usage: find [path...] [expression]
[09:31] <haggisbasheruk> thanks for pressing that big red button rww :P
[09:33] <q0_0p> the __ is a simple set of instructions that enable a computer to initially recognize it's hardware;  A. CMOS B. BIOS ???
[09:34] <IntuitiveNipple> q0_0p: the "Getting Started" guide :)
[09:34] <rww> !ot | q0_0p: That's offtopic for this channel. By the way, (B).
[09:34] <wangjinqu_> what are the expressions in the "find  [path...] [expression]
[09:34] <IntuitiveNipple> wangjinqu_: See "man find" for all the options
[09:35] <wangjinqu_> ok
[09:35] <koshar1> wangjinqu you may want to use locate
[09:36] <q0_0p> thx
[09:36] <q0_0p> sorry for asking it here
[09:36] <quibbler> wangjinqu_: or find ---help
[09:37] <wangjinqu_> yes  i have used man find and find --help  but  it's too long
[09:37] <wangjinqu_> and ...   i just want to know it fast
[09:39] <aprendiz001> hi all
[09:42] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[09:42] <dayo> wangjinqu_: find <knowpath> -type f -name <filename> -print
[09:42] <dayo> wangjinqu_: u can see examples if u scroll to the bottom of the man page for find
[09:42] <dayo> ActionParsnip: hi
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> dayo: i've never put print on the end of my find commands
[09:43] <wangjinqu_> i will have a try  thx
[09:43] <dibblego> how do I figure out what I need to do /boot/grub/menu.lst to put my windows partition on the boot list?
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> wangjinqu_: if you also add 2>/dev/null
[09:43] <dayo> ActionParsnip: yeah, it prints by default, but it's by force of habit that i put it there. lol
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> wangjinqu_: it also gets rid of silly error messages that arent results
[09:43] <dayo> !grub | dibblego
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> wangjinqu_: find / -name "*.png" 2>/dev/null
[09:44] <dibblego> dayo, I restored grub after a windows install but that didn't allow me to boot my windows partition
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> wangjinqu_: if you put "s round them then it will handle spaces
[09:44] <ActionParsnip> wangjinqu_: or use sudo

[09:45] <aprendiz001> I have problems with realtek alc888
[09:45] <aprendiz001> the sound is too low

[09:45] <aprendiz001> I have read it was a bug
[09:46] <X4D> hello, I'm trying to setup SSH access from an external network. Locally it works fine, I've also successfully configured DynDNS, I've opened up the necessary ports on UFW, forwarded the ports in the router and made a port scan to verify the service is listening. But I still get a connection refused... what am I missing here? Is there a setting that is on that will only allow ssh connections from the local network ?
[09:46] <wangjinqu_> you know  when i want a program run in the back  i can use  NAME_PROCESS &   and i want to make it's output  > /dev/null    then i can use just an example  rhythmbox & > /dev/null  but  there's still some message put on the screen
[09:47] <dayo> X4D: probably ssh is not installed on the target system.   sudo aptitude install ssh
[09:47] <wangjinqu_> how can i solve this
[09:47] <ActionParsnip> X4D: does the dydns address resolve correctly?
[09:47] <X4D> ActionParsnip: yes it resolves
[09:47] <X4D> dayo: it's installed and working perfectly locally
[09:48] <KhaaL> hey guys, i'm installing a package but since i have a dozen repository its hard for me to know if its coming from official repo or a PPA - is there a switch to apt-get or aptitude to see from which repository the package will be installed?
[09:48] <StyleSheep> anyone can help me connection to a wpa2-psk secured wireless network on intrepid?
[09:48] <Mark_> x4d: what is the ip address, you can pm me if you want
[09:48] <Flannel> KhaaL: apt-cache policy package
[09:48] <ActionParsnip> X4D: what is the dydns name?
[09:48] <X4D> I know the SSH is listening because of the port scan, when ssh is running I receive a port open and when I stop the service the port is blocked
[09:48] <dayo> X4D: u are sure u have ssh on *both* sides of the connection attempt? how about your firewall. does it allow ssh? i use firehol on my server, and i need to explicitly allow ssh or any other service
[09:49] <ActionParsnip> X4D: i have your ip as 85.58.14.218
[09:49] <KhaaL> thanks Flannel
[09:50] <X4D> ActionParsnip: give it a go on port 10022
[09:50] <dalfz> is octave removed from universe repos? it doesn't show up on search
[09:51] <Mark_> i can get a login request just fine, are you doing public key encryption or just starting with basic password auth?
[09:51] <StyleSheep> halp, i cannot access an wpa2-psk secured network using intrepid ibex
[09:51] <ActionParsnip> X4D: what dydnsname are you using?
[09:51] <StyleSheep> i've tried the wpa_supplicant, but without any result
[09:51] <ActionParsnip> StyleSheep: did you install and configure wpa?
[09:51] <ActionParsnip> !wpa | StyleSheep
[09:52] <ActionParsnip> StyleSheep: you need to configure wpa before you can get a connection
[09:52] <KhaaL> Flannel: can i also control which source to install the package from with apt-cache?
[09:52] <Flannel> KhaaL: No, but you can specify it with apt-get (see the man page, the second paragraph for 'install')
[09:53] <aprendiz001> anyone know how to solve the sound low problem in realtek alc888 in ubuntu 8.10?
[09:53] <StyleSheep> ActionParsnip, i've tried accessing using the wpa_supplicant, but it didn't work out
[09:53] <KhaaL> Flannel: awesomeness! :-)
[09:53] <StyleSheep> on other networks i can access without any problem
[09:55] <dibblego> dayo, I managed to tweak menu.list thanks (no have to figure out how to change which partition is the default)
[09:55] <ActionParsnip> StyleSheep: then there is your problem
[09:55] <Mark_> dayo
[09:56] <Mark_> its just a line like
[09:56] <Mark_> default 0
[09:56] <Mark_> or default 1
[09:56] <FloodBot1> Mark_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:56] <Mark_> default 0 means the first entry is default
[09:56] <Mark_> default 1 means the second entry
[09:56] <Mark_> and so on
[09:56] <Mark_> in your grub.conf
[09:57] <chillex> hello
[09:57] <dayo> dibblego: it works now? cool :-)

[09:58] <chillex> sweet arse bash command :(){ :|:& };:
[09:59] <StyleSheep> ActionParsnip, the only usable message i get out the wpa_supplicant debug trace is "No suitable AP found"
[09:59] <BlueEagle> chillex: That is not funny
[10:00] <BlueEagle> !dont
[10:00] <ActionParsnip> StyleSheep: read the wap supplicant guides so you can configure that and then connecting is a snap
[10:00] <chillex> ;)
[10:00] <ubuntuNOR> Hi. what channel..or server can i get help/forum about database software --Rekall. ?????
[10:01] <BlueEagle> ubuntunor: In many cases use the name of the database software as a channel like #mysql or #postgre
[10:01] <StyleSheep> i've tried everything in these guides, but nothing worked so far
[10:01] <dalfz> do i need to add some repos for audacity?
[10:03] <ActionParsnip> StyleSheep: then remove the settings and stuff then setup from fresh

[10:22] <Lartza_> when expanding program with the middle button, or maybe bringing it back from taskbar crashes the program

[10:24] <Lartza_> Silkjc: Yup
[10:24] <Chiliblack> anyone using a 9400gt in ubuntu
[10:24] <Lartza_> Well there is #nvidia too i think
[10:25] <aprendiz001> anyone has problemas with realtek alc888?
[10:25] <Silkjc> When booting I get failed to load the Nvidia kernel module, and after doing modprobe nvidia is says it cannot find nvidia.ko. This seemed to happen after a reboot, system was working perfectly beforehand
[10:26] <ActionParsnip> !anyone | Chiliblack
[10:26] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: reinstall your nvidia driver so the kernel module can be rebuilt
[10:26] <aprendiz001> I have low sound problems with it
[10:26] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: What packages do I need to remove to fully remove it?
[10:26] <Chiliblack> ActionParsnip, I was hoping to get an idea of how it works, I am sure it will display a desktop
[10:27] <firsttimeinubunt> hello
[10:27] <firsttimeinubunt> i was here yesterday regarding BusyBox issue
[10:27] <Chiliblack> 9400gt how well does it work with compiz
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> Chiliblack: well its a graphcs card so i can imagine it can
[10:27] <firsttimeinubunt> i wanted to report the progress in that issue
[10:27] <Chiliblack> you would hope so :)
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: have you installed nvidia packages from the repos?
[10:28] <Supersaiyan_IV> Chiliblack, I have 8400M GS and it is rock stable
[10:28] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: I simply activated the 177 restricted driver, then when it failed tried to go to 173 but both fail in the same way
[10:28] <Supersaiyan_IV> Chiliblack, so 9400GT can't be any worse
[10:28] <firsttimeinubunt> all versions burnt from 4x to 16x speeds kept dumping me into BusyBox .. all were CD media ... the moment i put in a dvd, it worked
[10:28] <firsttimeinubunt> right now i am here in ubuntu live cd session for the first time
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: make sure you have kernel headers installed
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: what is the output of: lspci | grep -i vga
[10:28] <firsttimeinubunt> one problem is that every thing except SOUND is working. . audio i cant seem to start
[10:29] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G72M [GeForce Go 7400] (rev a1)
[10:29] <Silkjc> Which is correct
[10:30] <khirr> noip2 no autostart, what can i do?
[10:30] <ActionParsnip> !autostart

[10:48] <riwa> Does anyone know if the swedish repositories have been removed?
[10:49] <ActionParsnip> O__o: yes
[10:49] <skyhate> Hi everyone
[10:49] <ziroday> riwa: might be best to ask the swedish loco, they'll know
[10:49] <ActionParsnip> O__o: it will identify the package for you, you can then run: sudo apt-gte install <package name>
[10:49] <ActionParsnip> O__o: you can use apt-cache search to find any package you need

[10:52] <skyhate> the error when i compil is
[10:52] <ikonia> skyhate: wait
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: it can't, its a website. The app you installed interfaces with the site for you
[10:52] <firsttimeinubunt> whats wrong with this command ?   sudo modprobe snd- hda-intel.ko    :(
[10:52] <ikonia> skyhate: don't post in the chanel
[10:52] <skyhate> ...
[10:52] <skyhate> why?
[10:52] <ikonia> skyhate: what application do you want to build, what version of ubuntu
[10:52] <ikonia> skyhate: answer those questions
[10:52] <ziroday> firsttimeinubunt: its not an existing module?
[10:52] <firsttimeinubunt> it is there
[10:52] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: Thats what I mean, that it was setup for that :)
[10:52] <skyhate> it's no ubuntu it's an app
[10:53] <ziroday> firsttimeinubunt: the module won't end in .ko
[10:53] <skyhate> my version of ubuntu is 8.10
[10:53] <ikonia> skyhate: what application do you want to build, and what version of ubuntu are you using
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: ok we'll have a play: try: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:53] <skyhate> the name of app is
[10:53] <firsttimeinubunt> ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ find /lib/modules/`uname -r` | grep snd --->   /lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko
[10:53] <skyhate> WiiControllerTracking
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: read at the bottom you have Modes "nvidia-auto-select"
[10:53] <skyhate> that's all
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: change that to read: Modes "1024x768"
[10:54] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: Done
[10:54] <ikonia> skyhate: where did you get the application (so we can see what you're using)
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: and delete the line that says Option "NoLogo" "true"
[10:54] <skyhate> ok
[10:54] <firsttimeinubunt> see that module is there  right ?
[10:54] <skyhate> wait 2s
[10:54] <ziroday> firsttimeinubunt: try sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel
[10:54] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: Done
[10:54] <skyhate> http://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/Wiimote/LinkDownload.html
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: say the file and reboot
[10:54] <skyhate> here
[10:55] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: Alrighty, brb
[10:55] <skyhate> it's for using wiimote in computer
[10:55] <ikonia> skyhate: it's not
[10:55] <ActionParsnip> skyhate: can you pastebin your compile errors please
[10:55] <ActionParsnip> !paste
[10:55] <skyhate> ok
[10:55] <ikonia> skyhate: read the text of what it does, what it is used for and what you need to be able to use it
[10:55] <firsttimeinubunt> it started .. thank you
[10:56] <firsttimeinubunt> very much
[10:56] <skyhate> i have read the readme a lot of time =\
[10:56] <ziroday> firsttimeinubunt: no problem, remember modprobe doesn't need the .ko ending :)
[10:56] <ikonia> skyhate: it will create "thee barley useful test program"
[10:56] <ikonia> skyhate: that is the quote from the site
[10:56] <ActionParsnip> skyhate: Building the package as-is will create three barely useful test programs, but creating actual applications using the tracking algorithms will require modifying the sources. This requires a working knowledge of C++,
[10:56] <firsttimeinubunt> ya i was doing sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel.ko
[10:56] <firsttimeinubunt> because thats what that grape command listed
[10:57] <skyhate> oh k
[10:57] <skyhate> i paste the error ?
[10:57] <firsttimeinubunt> my first time in linux here on live cd
[10:57] <firsttimeinubunt> loving it yet
[10:57] <O__o> how do i get the round desktop cube in 8.04?
[10:57] <skyhate> or ...
[10:57] <ziroday> firsttimeinubunt: you could do sudo modprobe snd-hda-<tab> to see what the valid inputs are :)
[10:57] <firsttimeinubunt> cool thanks will try
[10:57] <ActionParsnip> skyhate: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CWiiD
[10:57] <O__o> or do i need to upgrade to 8.10 to get Cube Reflection and Deformation ?
[10:57] <ziroday> !ccsm | O__o install this
[10:57] <firsttimeinubunt> man, how is this not famous ? this can kill windows .. how old is this operating system ?
[10:57] <ActionParsnip> O__o: ctrl+alt+drag with mouse
[10:58] <skyhate> ok ...
[10:58] <ziroday> O__o: err sorry, you need to install compizconfig-settings-manager and then configure it to use the cube
[10:58] <ActionParsnip> O__o: as long as you installed the settings manager and have3d accelleration you are good to go
[10:58] <firsttimeinubunt> is it possible to install it right now on my hard drive permanently ?
[10:58] <O__o> i already installed ccsm since 7.10
[10:58] <firsttimeinubunt> without losing any financial data i have on hard drive ?
[10:58] <O__o> but i dont have the round desktop
[10:58] <ikonia> firsttimeinubunt: you should take backups
[10:59] <O__o> i only have the cube
[10:59] <ikonia> firsttimeinubunt: if it's important financial data
[10:59] <skyhate> thanks for help bye all
[10:59] <firsttimeinubunt> good idea ikonia
[10:59] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: Still getting the original error: Failed to load Nvidia kernel module; modprobe nvidia: nvidia.ko no such device
[10:59] <ActionParsnip> firsttimeinubunt: sure, the installer can resize partitions, i would backup any important data (you should have one anyway), and them you can dual boot if you wish
[10:59] <ziroday> ikonia: also defrag the ntfs partition if you are considering shrinking it
[10:59] <firsttimeinubunt> thank you all. .. btw do i have to do everytime snd-hda-intel ?  why cant it happen auto ?
[10:59] <ikonia> ziroday: exceptional advice yes
[10:59] <O__o> and i just installed 8.10 on a diff computer and i found that there are some new effect which i dont have in my other computer, how do i update compiz?
[11:00] <Gadu> how can i get my normal mouse pointer to show up in wine windows?
[11:00] <ziroday> firsttimeinubunt: it should do it automatically but you can add it to /etc/modules to have it done at startup
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: you could use the one from www.nvidia.com
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-79224.html
[11:00] <ziroday> ikonia: sorry I addressed that to the wrong person, firsttimeinubunt you should defrag your ntfs drive as well
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: can you provide the output of: dpkg -l | grep ^nvid
[11:01] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: I had the 173 driver working all weekend until reboot
[11:01] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: No output
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: then use the 173 driver
[11:02] <riwa> Hi. I'm trying to update an old ubuntu system (7.04) but I get: "Could not download all repository indexes". I guess they have moved. Could anyone point me in the right direction?
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: ok try without the ^ symbol
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> !7.04
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade | riwa
[11:02] <q0_0p> how do i turn off auto spell check on ubuntu
[11:02] <riwa> !upgrad
[11:02] <ziroday> riwa: you need to use the old-releases repo to upgrade. The factoid ActionParsnip should help
[11:02] <q0_0p> everytime i type something it tries to autospell check?

[11:06] <Antor> okay here is the problem : is there anyway to install ubuntu on a flash disk (i dont mean bootable live usb)
[11:06] <ActionParsnip> !usb | antor

[11:08] <Antor> i want to use a real os with no hdd
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> Antor: read what ubottu said carefully
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> Antor: the word persistant is key
[11:08] <firsttimeinubunt> ActionParsnip:  ya, i did that .. i unmuted all 3
[11:09] <failers> ActionParsnip well me myself found the usb disk in the installation partition manager so i could install it normally :P
[11:09] <firsttimeinubunt> problem is they automatically keep getting muted
[11:10] <firsttimeinubunt> how to stop these mics from getting automuted ?
[11:10] <kholerabbi> is there ana image mounter?
[11:11] <kholerabbi> .img files?
[11:11] <glymph> Whast kind of image, kholerabbi?
[11:11] <axelpaxel> why does it have to be so bloody difficult to install java in Ubuntu? It's a problem every time
[11:11] <axelpaxel> has anyone here gotten it to work?
[11:12] <firsttimeinubunt> ok i failed to do it .. i cant start mic in ubuntu :((
[11:12] <glymph> Java 1.6.0 works for me, axelpaxel
[11:12] <maxagaz> ziroday, thanks
[11:13] <axelpaxel> how did you install it, then? All I get from java.com, is .bin files which won't install, but just leaves me with a folder on my desktop, glymph
[11:13] <firsttimeinubunt> my mic keeps getting automatically muted
[11:13] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: Completed
[11:13] <glymph> add multiverse, and install from there axelpaxel - see http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-java-runtime-environment-jre-in-ubuntu.html
[11:15] <ziroday> !java | axelpaxel

[11:15] <CodeNameIceMan> Anyone a media player that supports the TSCC codec?
[11:15] <bz0b> anyone here using ubuntu jaunty?
[11:15] <riwa> ActionParsnip: Yeah. I found it.. Downloading is (almost) working flawlessly. It couldn't find two files but I'll update the rest and check for them later.
[11:16] <Antor> okay i got the unetbootin i read the instructions but i still dont get the point. Can do a complete install of linux to my flashdisk ? I dont need a simple bootable live cd on flashdisk
[11:16] <firsttimeinubunt> kindly help me with my microphone .. thank you
[11:16] <bz0b> actually kubuntu jaunty? with full updates? im not getting a background or taskbar just a black bacground and alt f2 works
[11:16] <axelpaxel> which one is the correct way? ubottu , ziroday  or glymph ?
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: ok restart x
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: if that doesnt work, reboot
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: did you see the kernel being compiled?
[11:16] <glymph> axelpaxel: trust ziroday i.e. ubottu
[11:16] <ziroday> axelpaxel: all are :)
[11:16] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: Do I need to nvidia-xconfig first?
[11:16] <glymph> heh
[11:17] <glymph> bz0b: there's a channel #ubuntu+1 for jaunty discussions, I gather.
[11:17] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: I think it recompiled
[11:18] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: you could run the command yes
[11:18] <axelpaxel> Hmm, I get this: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[11:19] <axelpaxel> And all I see on java pages, is this gray square - I remember seeing the same, but that was with flash in Opera about a year ago
[11:19] <oCean_> axelpaxel: have you enabled multiverse repo?
[11:21] <sangi> hi all
[11:21] <axelpaxel> oCean_: Yes. I even get what version I'm using with java -version
[11:21] <axelpaxel> Firefox also says java=enabled
[11:21] <Antor> flash is ready
[11:21] <sangi> could anyone tell me how to create ubuntu-archive-keyring.gpg
[11:21] <Antor> time to reboot
[11:22] <clarks> i want to ask about my wireless..its not working since 4 days ago..how to solve it?
[11:22] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: Still no luck, failed to load nvidia kernel module :(
[11:22] <glymph> axelpaxel: do you have sun-java6-jre installed as well?
[11:22] <oCean_> axelpaxel: first see if the sun java JRE is installed: "dpkg -l |grep java"
[11:22] <glymph> yeah, what oCean_ said
[11:22] <oCean_> axelpaxel: maybe another java package is installed
[11:23] <axelpaxel> I installed some IcedTea plugin some days ago, does that matter?
[11:23] <axelpaxel> oCean_
[11:23] <oCean_> axelpaxel: well, we know the sun-java6-jre works
[11:23] <clarks> anyone can help me how to solve my wireless?
[11:24] <oCean_> axelpaxel: if we do it the ubuntu way, it's definitely not bloody hard :p
[11:24] <glymph> clarks: we would need more information in order to help
[11:24] <clarks> glymph, i dont know how to explain..im using acer laptop..its not working when i shut down my computer improperly..
[11:24] <Silkjc> ActionParsnip: Could this be the cause? FATAL: Error inserting nvidia (/lib/modules/2.6.27-11-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia.ko): No such device
[11:24] <sixnonep> Hi guys, need some help with transmission and port forwarding
[11:24] <axelpaxel> oCean_: Frankly, I mostly don't find Ubuntu hard at ALL, but this java-crap is really a pain in the ass, and always has been, atleast for me :p
[11:25] <glymph> is it working when you shut down [and startup] normally, clarks?
[11:25] <ActionParsnip> Silkjc: i think you have some research to do, see whats going on
[11:25] <clarks> it is working before i shut down..when i open it again..my wireless not working..
[11:26] <oCean_> axelpaxel: let's try installing the sun thing ok?
[11:26] <glymph> clarks: you mean in general "before I shut down" or since a few days ago, clarks?
[11:26] <clarks> since a few days ago..its not working..
[11:27] <clarks> i dont know how to fixed it..
[11:27] <glymph> clarks: ok, do you see the wireless adapter if you click on the network icon near the top-right?
[11:27] <clarks> glymph, yeah i see..but it invisble to click..
[11:27] <clarks> i mean i cant click it...
[11:27] <axelpaxel> oCean_: I think I have installed the sun thing, but the IcedTea thing maybe is an issue? Conflict? I don't know, terminal says I have Sun installed: "java version "1.6.0_10"
[11:28] <clarks> glymph, i think it have to fixed in terminal..but i dont know how..
[11:28] <oCean_> axelpaxel: no conflicts, the various versions are handled through 'alternatives' method. Quite nice actually
[11:28] <Omar87> How do I list the current processes running in the system?
[11:28] <pejay> Omar87: ps aux
[11:28] <pejay> or install htop
[11:28] <oCean_> axelpaxel: install "galternatives" to see and/or (re)configure: "sudo apt-get install galternatives"
[11:29] <glymph> clarks: there are diagnostics you can do from the terminal, yes: try the command "iwlist scan", does it list your access point?
[11:29] <ActionParsnip> pejay: ef is the linux standard, aux is the bsd ;)
[11:29] <oCean_> axelpaxel: that way, you can choose which is default etc.
[11:29] <pejay> ActionParsnip: You know i've been using linux for about 10yrs and never known that!
[11:29] <clarks> glymph, no scan results.
[11:29] <glymph> and is the wireless router working for other computers, clarks?
[11:30] <ActionParsnip> pejay: man ps
[11:30] <ActionParsnip> pejay: its the 10th or so line down
[11:30] <pejay> ActionParsnip: Why would I need to man it now you've told me?
[11:30] <clarks> glymph, yeah...its working at other computers.
[11:30] <pejay> It's not like I don't believe you :P
[11:30] <ActionParsnip> pejay: theres more info there, thats all :D
[11:30] <axelpaxel> oCean_: Java6 Sun seems to be the default
[11:31] <Lartza_> Anyone help with java?
[11:31] <oCean_> axelpaxel: ok. When i restarted the browser (firefox in my case) it worked
[11:31] <Lartza_> i installed sun's and setted it to be used, no java in firefox
[11:31] <glymph> clarks: does "iwconfig" list an adapter which has "wireless extensions"?
[11:32] <clarks> glymph, yeah it have wireless extenstion
[11:33] <oCean_> Lartza_: is the sun plugin set to be default? Check alternatives "sudo update-alternatives --list java" for example
[11:33] <glymph> clarks: in that case, I can only suggest temporarily disabling WEP or WPA (i.e. security) on your wifi access point and testing the connection, assuming you're close enough to the router, other than that I don't know, sorry.
[11:33] <Gimax> salut
[11:33] <clarks> glymph, how?
[11:33] <glymph> clarks: that depends on your router
[11:33] <clarks> i dont know how to do that
[11:34] <clarks> glymph, you know the command of "rmmod" and "modprob"
[11:34] <glymph> clarks: it appears that Ubuntu correctly recognises your wifi adapter, since it's listed in "iwconfig"
[11:34] <Lartza_> oCean: It is also java --version shows me it
[11:35] <ActionParsnip> clarks: do you get anything intelligent from: sudo iwlist scan
[11:35] <clarks> glymph, i think it can be fixed in terminal..i just forget the command
[11:35] <clarks> wait ActionParsnip
[11:35] <oCean_> Lartza_: yeah, but diff (plugin) versions are handled through 'alternatives' method.
[11:35] <clarks> ActionParsnip, it say network is down.
[11:35] <oCean_> Lartza_: check the update-alternatives. That is the actual config for the link in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin.so
[11:36] <clarks> ActionParsnip, can i pm u?
[11:36] <oCean_> Lartza_: of course, you should check that link too
[11:36] <ActionParsnip> clarks: keep it here, you'll get more help
[11:36] <zizo> hi
[11:36] <zizo> any one there
[11:36] <Lartza_> maybe sun-java6-plugin...
[11:37] <ActionParsnip> clarks: what is the name of the network device (e.g. eth1, wlan0 etc)
[11:37] <sangi> could anyone tell me how to create ubuntu-archive-keyring.gpg
[11:37] <oCean_> Lartza_: ? have you run any of the commands i suggested?
[11:37] <clarks> ActionParsnip, wlan0
[11:37] <ActionParsnip> clarks: sudo ifup wlan0
[11:38] <clarks> ActionParsnip, : Ignoring unknown interface wlan0=wlan0.
[11:38] <Lartza_> oCean_: no
[11:38] <dalfz> ActionParsnip: would you have an idea why my external monitor isn't detected in the "screen resolution" tab?
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> clarks: have you installed a driver for the device?
[11:38] <clarks> ActionParsnip, yeah...
[11:38] <Lartza_> works now with the browser plugin installed
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> dalfz: have you installed video drivers?
[11:39] <clarks> i already said..its just not working a few day when i shut down my laptop..
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> clarks: try renaming /etc/network/interfaces and rebooting
[11:39] <dalfz> ActionParsnip: yes, nvidia driver is working great on my laptop
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> dalfz: is it ok in: gksudo nvidia-settings
[11:40] <clarks> ActionParsnip, just do that in terminal
[11:40] <ActionParsnip> clarks: no
[11:40] <clarks> ActionParsnip, i dont think so like that can work..
[11:40] <ActionParsnip> clarks: sudo mv /etc/network/interfaces /etc/network/interfaces_old
[11:40] <clarks> some helper here before..just ask me to do "rmmod" and "modprob"
[11:41] <clarks> i just forget how to use it
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> clarks: you will get a stock file when you reboot
[11:41] <dalfz> ActionParsnip: nope, that shows only screen 0.
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> clarks: sudo rmmod <thing>
[11:41] <clarks> ActionParsnip, i just copy paste ok?
[11:41] <clarks> yeah..
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> clarks: then sudo modprobe <ting>
[11:41] <clarks> but i dont know what the no
[11:41] <clarks> ActionParsnip, yeah like that
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> clarks: if you recently kernl upgraded you will need to get / compil the module for the new kernel
[11:42] <Antor> i used unetbootin and it created a bootable usb install disk again
[11:42] <Antor> i need to install ubuntu on flashdisk
[11:42] <clarks> ActionParsnip, so how i gonna solve it..?
[11:42] <Antor> can i make my self clear ?
[11:42] <Antor> my english is poor i'm sorry about that
[11:42] <jason_> ActionParsnip: I'm out of ideas, it seems the kernel isn't installing...I just tried another script (envyng) and installed 177 again..same error. #nvidia directs people here for kernel problems xD
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> Antor: the cd can now install to usb
[11:43] <Dr_willis> Antor,  you mean to say you want to do a 'normal' type install to a usb thumbdrive?
[11:43] <Antor> yup Dr_willis
[11:43] <sion> 2
[11:43] <dalfz> ActionParsnip: never mind, it was disabled there! works now, thanks
[11:43] <sion> ??????
[11:43] <Antor> i booted from the usb a minute ago
[11:43] <Antor> i tried to install
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> dalfz: you need to run nvidia-settings with gksudo
[11:43] <Dr_willis> I find the Ubuntu usb-drive installer tool for making a live-cd-persistant save - works much better.
[11:43] <sion> ??????????? -*-
[11:44] <sion> ???????????????????????????????????
[11:44] <Antor> i dont need a live-cd on flashdisk
[11:44] <oCean_> sion: don't
[11:44] <ActionParsnip> clarks: try running: history | grep modprobe
[11:44] <Antor> i need to install unix to flashdisk
[11:44] <oCean_> sion: this is ubuntu support channel
[11:44] <sion> --*-
[11:44] <ActionParsnip> clarks: it will show the last 1000 commands you typed with modprobe in
[11:44] <sion> How open program?
[11:45] <clarks> rmmod can also do that?
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> sion: type its name in terminal and press enter, or click it in the ubuntu menus
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> clarks: do what?
[11:46] <clarks> ActionParsnip, the fatal module not found..
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> clarks: run the command: history | grep modprobe
[11:46] <clarks> ActionParsnip, already..
[11:46] <mylisto> hey all...having a problem with flash...
[11:47] <mylisto> I can't get this site to work...www.hypnosummit.com
[11:47] <ActionParsnip> clarks: that will jog your memory, if you rerun the command and it isnt found you will need to recompile it for the new kernel, or simply drop to the older kernel
[11:47] <mylisto> just says loading...100%
[11:47] <clarks> ActionParsnip, yeah it isnt found...
[11:47] <clarks> i already rerun the command..
[11:47] <mylisto> think I need to go to an older version of flash...just not sure how
[11:47] <clarks> how to recompile?
[11:48] <ActionParsnip> clarks: well what is the module name?
[11:48] <clarks> ActionParsnip, what you mean?
[11:48] <jayjung> Hi
[11:49] <benedikt_> How do i export my package selcteion fro my ubuntu install, and preferrably make a install cd with my preferences? I konw something like this is posible, i think i have seen it in the wiki but I cant find it again.
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> clarks: well I have no idea what module you are trying to install so I dont know how to compile it, if you tell me the kernel name then I have a chance
[11:49] <clarks> ActionParsnip, i dont know how to check it..
[11:49] <oCean_> !clone | benedikt_
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> clarks: what command are you running to attempt a modprobe?
[11:49] <oCean_> benedikt_: is that what you were looking for?
[11:50] <clarks> sudo modprobe 3945 <--u mean this?
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> clarks: yes, 3945 is the module name
[11:50] <clarks> ok..
[11:50] <clarks> so how?
[11:50] <ActionParsnip> clarks: i had no idea it was that did I and I needed that name from you
[11:51] <mylisto> anyone can help me?  How can I revert to an older version of flash?
[11:51] <clarks> i only know that..maybe you know what the command to check for it
[11:51] <ActionParsnip> mylisto: are you on 64bit or 32bit ubuntu?
[11:51] <mylisto> 32
[11:51] <mylisto> I believe
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> mylisto: run: uname -a and paste the result in here
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> clarks: what is the output of: lsb_release -c
[11:52] <mylisto> Linux mylisto-laptop 2.6.27-11-generic #1 SMP Thu Jan 29 19:24:39 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> mylisto: i686 = 32bit
[11:53] <clarks> ActionParsnip, : Codename:	intrepid
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> mylisto: the site works ok on my 64bit intrepid, try downloading the latest flash player from www.adobe.com
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> mylisto: you need to put the .so in ~/.mozilla/plugins
[11:53] <mylisto> ?
[11:54] <ActionParsnip> mylisto: adobe do a zipped plugin, if you simply drop the file in that folder you will have the latest version
[11:54] <mylisto> ?
[11:55] <mylisto> into the firefox folder?
[11:55] <mylisto> can't I just do the .deb?
[11:55] <clarks> ActionParsnip, ?
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> mylisto: copy the .so file to ~/.mozilla/plugins  you will need to manually create the plugins folder, if you use hardy, you can use the deb
[11:56] <DaveCo> !ubuntu
[11:56] <DaveCo> !bot
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> clarks: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-2.6.27
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> clarks: are you using the 2.6.27 kernel?
[11:57] <clarks> ActionParsnip, i dont know what kernel im using..
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> clarks: whats the output of uname -a
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> ahhh, nm
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> its
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-intrepid
[11:58] <clarks> ActionParsnip, Linux  2.6.27
[11:58] <clarks> yeah thats
[11:58] <savvas> mylisto: why would you want to revert to an older version of flash?

[11:59] <ActionParsnip> mylisto: well its worth a check dont you think
[11:59] <mylisto> sure it is action
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> mylisto: if you get the plugin from the site today you know that the version is the latest one for today
[12:00] <clarks> ActionParsnip, how to killswitch?
[12:00] <media> hello all
[12:00] <mylisto> "don't have the rights to" copy the file over
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> clarks: its the switch to turn the wifi off and on
[12:00] <savvas> mylisto: do you already have flashplugin-nonfree installed?
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> mylisto: you should, its your mozilla profile
[12:01] <clarks> ActionParsnip, i already did that but its not working...what is "NM"?
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> mylisto: mkdir ~/.mozilla/plugins
[12:01] <mylisto> You don't have the right permissions to extract archives in the folder "file:///usr/lib/mozilla/plugins"
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> mylisto: cp <path to .so file> ~/.mozilla/plugins
[12:01] <mylisto> what?
[12:01] <savvas> ActionParsnip: can I take it from here? :)
[12:01] <Dr_willis> mylisto,  thats a system dir.. the users also have their own personal plugins directgory
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> mylisto: i never mentioned /usr/lib did i
[12:02] <mylisto> youtube is flash right?
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> savvas: which one
[12:02] <savvas> ActionParsnip: mylisto

[12:02] <savvas> mylisto: open Applications > Accessories > Terminal
[12:03] <mylisto> in there
[12:03] <media> can anyone tell how to fix this error message Unknown option "--enable-swscale".
[12:03] <media> thanks
[12:03] <savvas> mylisto: copy and paste this command: apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree | grep Installed
[12:03] <savvas> mylisto: paste the output back here
[12:03] <mylisto> Installed: 10.0.22.87ubuntu1~intrepid1
[12:04] <clarks> ActionParsnip, if i can know what is 'NM' mean they talking about in forum ( http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-844261.html)
[12:05] <savvas> mylisto: run this command: rm -rf $HOME/.macromedia
[12:05] <mylisto> real quick
[12:05] <savvas> mylisto: let me know when done
[12:05] <mylisto> savvas when you went to www.hypnosummit.com did it redirect you?
[12:05] <media> anyone???
[12:05] <clarks> anyone here can help again?
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> clarks: nm == network manager
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> media: what app is that with
[12:05] <mylisto> savas did it
[12:05] <clarks> ActionParsnip, so how i gonna solve it?
[12:06] <media> ubuntu
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> media: no, what app is moaning about the weird option?
[12:06] <media> ffmpeg
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> media: better :)
[12:06] <savvas> mylisto: redirect me to where? the flash site is working, I can click on things and everything
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> media: you are trying to use an option for ffmpeg that doesnt exist
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> media: man ffmpeg will show you the options it can use
[12:07] <media> I've tried it before and it worked
[12:07] <mylisto> savvas:
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> clarks: you are going to have to websearch roud to see what you can find. In the meantime if you reboot to the older kernel, I bet it works
[12:07] <mylisto> was it the global hypnosis site?
[12:07] <mylisto> someone just told me it redirected them to
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> media: well its not now and thats the important bit
[12:07] <mylisto> http://www.vbmse.com/vBMSEAug_8_2008/
[12:07] <media> yes I've tried ./configure --help
[12:08] <media> so what are my options leave and not use it or try something else on it's place?
[12:08] <mylisto> savvas: might not be flash...
[12:08] <mylisto> some guy  just told me that he went to the hypnosummit.com site
[12:08] <mylisto> and that it stayed at 100%...
[12:09] <clarks> ActionParsnip, how to reboot?
[12:09] <savvas> mylisto: give me a second, we'll check everything one by one
[12:09] <savvas> mylisto: I'm uploading a screenshot
[12:09] <media> what is or was swscale?
[12:09] <savvas> mylisto: this is what I see after a few clicks: http://imagebin.org/40664
[12:10] <mylisto> weird
[12:10] <mylisto> thats what it supposed to look like
[12:10] <media> ActionParsnip: and does the ffmpeg have it build in now?
[12:11] <mylisto> anyhow savvas:
[12:11] <mylisto> back to my problem
[12:11] <sapi_kren> hi
[12:11] <mylisto> I did  rm -rf $HOME/.macromedia
[12:11] <mylisto> and nothing happened
[12:11] <savvas> mylisto: ok, now close firefox and execute: killall -9 -r -I firefox
[12:12] <mylisto> whats that do?
[12:12] <mylisto> savvas you on a messenger program...using chatzilla...this wil lclose
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> clarks: sudo shutdown -r now
[12:12] <mylisto> will close
[12:12] <savvas> mylisto: it kills leftover running firefox processes, if any
[12:12] <savvas> mylisto: ah
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> clarks: as soon as you see grub, press esc and choose the older kerenel
[12:13] <savvas> mylisto: can you use pidgin or xchat? :)
[12:13] <q0_0p> y would u use killall -9?
[12:13] <DarthPidgin> Did I hear pidgin? :]
[12:13] <ActionParsnip> pidgin is groovy
[12:14] <q0_0p> pidgin is better than xchat?
[12:14] <Dr_willis> q0_0p,  not for irc...
[12:14] <q0_0p> oh
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> q0_0p: better is an opinion
[12:14] <q0_0p> aight
[12:14] <Dr_willis> q0_0p,  i much perfer xchat for irc
[12:14] <q0_0p> cool
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> q0_0p: i think its better, Dr_willis thinks not
[12:14] <media> ActionParsnip: thanks
[12:14] <Dr_willis> I cant stand pidgin for irc. :) for other im stuff its ok.
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> q0_0p: try it, see if you like it. there is no best of anything in life except when you are talking about your own taste
[12:15] <axelpaxel> who is raz0rx ? He gave me some warez link, just thought you should know
[12:15] <q0_0p> just want something simple
[12:15] <ilove19> hi all
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: it sends text and recieves text and does IM, thats all i need. I dont know what else anyon would ever want
[12:16] <q0_0p> i have a question abou killall -9 -r -I firefox
[12:16] <q0_0p> y can't u just use killall firefox?
[12:16] <Dr_willis> ActionParsnip,   you could telnet in then  if ya wanted to do irc that way also....
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> q0_0p: -9 means, kill it no matter what
[12:16] <q0_0p> oh
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: indeed
[12:16] <q0_0p> so u are better of using -9
[12:17] <q0_0p> killall might not kill it
[12:17] <q0_0p> i c
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: but the gui follows the style of the desktop so integrates better
[12:17] <Dr_willis>  -9 = kill with extremne prejudice :)
[12:17] <anon> can someone help me setting up this: xbox360 -ether-> PC -wifi-> internet?
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> q0_0p: no, kill -9 is to be used sparingly. kill -15 is a more graceful kill
[12:17] <meanne> hi
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> !ics | anon
[12:17] <Dr_willis> kill --die --die --die! :)
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> q0_0p: dont go bandying kill -9 around, you'll get weird system behavious
[12:18] <q0_0p> k
[12:18] <zxd> E: Could not open file /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_intrepid_main_source_Sources - open (2 No such file or directory)  ??
[12:18] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: so what is so offensive about pidgin for irc?
[12:18] <brucedougal> hi have a problem have tv screen set up as monitor works great appart form missing the edge of screen if i change res has no effect to the edge dvi to hdmi nvidia 8600 gts
[12:19] <Dr_willis> ActionParsnip,  last i used it - it was a pain. so i dont even try it any more.  i ssh -X to the linux box and got xchat on my windows machines :) via xming.. of course i dont DO any of the other IM networks either.. i just irc.
[12:19] <q0_0p> so u practicall have 31 kill options?
[12:19] <q0_0p> was looking at htop kill options
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> q0_0p: just stick to kill and you'll be fine, kill -9 if things get stuck
[12:19] <zxd> is this good deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu intrepid main multiverse universe reserved ?
[12:20] <zxd> i do aptitude update  afterwards and try to fetch source and get an error
[12:20] <q0_0p> k
[12:20] <q0_0p> gotcha
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> Dr_willis: fair point. I use nearly all the protocols pidgin uses so to install a seperate client is silly. plusI use it on my work laptop so my account settings are always on at least 3 systems :)
[12:21] <ilove19> i ask about ubuntu
[12:21] <ilove19> how to install it ?
[12:21] <brucedougal> hi have a problem have tv screen set up as monitor works great appart form missing the edge of screen if i change res has no effect to the edge dvi to hdmi nvidia 8600 gts
[12:21] <ActionParsnip> !install
[12:22] <bazhang> ilove19, did you download the iso?
[12:22] <ziroday> brucedougal: that sounds like TV overscan
[12:22] <ilove19> no
[12:22] <meanne> click this, http://afbtracking09.com/cgi-bin/afbin.cgi/12/17048:EM-jona_than
[12:22] <brucedougal> yep sounds right but no controls on tv to ajust overscan i checked
[12:22] <meanne> q
[12:23] <ilove19> i download zip files
[12:23] <bazhang> ilove19, then download the iso, get a blank cd, and after checking the md5 of the iso burn it at low speed
[12:23] <bazhang> ilove19, that wont do it
[12:23] <zxd> what's the restricted repository?
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> ilove19: download the desktop iso and the md5sum for your cpu architecture, check the iso, burn the iso to cd, boot to the cd, check the cd for defects, install the OS
[12:23] <meanne> click this, http://afbtracking09.com/cgi-bin/afbin.cgi/12/17048:EM-jona_than
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> !restricted
[12:23] <bazhang> ilove19, unless you mean you want to install software on an existing ubuntu installation
[12:23] <ilove19> what is the iso ?
[12:23] <ActionParsnip> ilove19: its a cd image file
[12:24] <ziroday> brucedougal: only way I know to fix it is to get a modeline that suits it, however its tricky business. If you are planning to use mythtv or xbmc I know they both have utilites to fix overscan
[12:24] <ilove19> so ?
[12:24] <ActionParsnip> ilove19: so what?
[12:24] <bazhang> ilove19, are you talking about installing software IN ubuntu, or just installing ubuntu for the first time
[12:25] <ilove19> i talking about installing ubuntu at firt time
[12:25] <brucedougal> right i want to use myth thats the whole point
[12:25] <bazhang> ilove19, then go to the ubuntu home page and download the iso file
[12:25] <brucedougal> so there is an option in mythtv
[12:25] <ActionParsnip> ilove19: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[12:25] <ilove19> ok thanks
[12:25] <bazhang> np
[12:26] <corigo3> Since the latest updates my Battery meter has disappeared. How can I get the battery meter to launch?
[12:26] <ilove19> but my regional is not available
[12:26] <twojastara> I have a problem with NX, I have added special configuration to xorg.conf (keyboard) I now I don't have volume control
[12:26] <bazhang> ilove19, what region is that

[12:27] <Silkjc> Hi, I am having trouble inserting the Nvidia kernel module: FATAL: Error inserting nvidia (/lib/modules/2.6.27-11-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia.ko): No such device
[12:27] <Silkjc> , seems to have popped up since a reboot and hence Nvidia driver won't load
[12:28] <meanne> click this, http://afbtracking09.com/cgi-bin/afbin.cgi/12/17048:EM-jona_than
[12:28] <ActionParsnip> ilove19: get it from the closest one, that will speed up the download thats all
[12:28] <ilove19> not available to download ubuntu from my country
[12:28] <BlueEagle> silkjc: Try re-installing the nvidia driver. It seems you have an upgraded kernel but not a driver that matches. That's my best guess.
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> ilove19: thats fine, get it from a neighbouring country
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> ilove19: the files are identical
[12:29] <ActionParsnip> ilove19: no matter where you get them from
[12:29] <ilove19> ok
[12:29] <Silkjc> BlueEagle: ActionParsnip went through with me and i've reinstalled the driver multiple times on versions 177 and 173. Also tried a manual install from the nvidia website but it fails for the same reason when it attempts to compile the kernel module
[12:29] <ilove19> can i request cd
[12:29] <Pici> !shipit | ilove19
[12:30] <ActionParsnip> ilove19: if you want to, sure. It takes a while but is great if you internet download speed is low
[12:30] <clarks> ActionParsnip, i cant find the solution..
[12:30] <mylisto> savvas:
[12:30] <ilove19> yes my internet download speed is low
[12:30] <mylisto> just found out what was wrong
[12:30] <savvas> what?
[12:30] <savvas> :)
[12:30] <ilove19> it takes long time
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> ilove19: then shippit is for you
[12:31] <savvas> mylisto: hahaha
[12:31] <remoteCTRL> how can i change the language for an existing user?
[12:31] <savvas> ActionParsnip: compare http://hypnosummit.com/ with http://www.hypnosummit.com/ :P
[12:31] <ActionParsnip> clarks: boot to the older kernel, as soon as your pc shows any life after the reboot, before ubuntu even thinks about loading, press esc lots
[12:32] <jrib> remoteCTRL: click "options" at the gdm login screen for that user
[12:32] <savvas> mylisto: do you want to go back to using the normal flashplugin-nonfree ? :)
[12:32] <clarks> i have to restart my laptop?
[12:32] <mylisto> dammit all
[12:32] <remoteCTRL> jrib: seriously?? thanks man, gonna check that:)
[12:32] <ActionParsnip> clarks: did you press esc to bring up the grub mnu?
[12:32] <clarks> no..
[12:32] <erictus> hell
[12:32] <erictus> hello
[12:33] <clarks> you mean have to restart it?
[12:33] <ActionParsnip> savvas: http://hypnosummit.com/ doesnt even complete on my win xp lappy
[12:33] <ActionParsnip> clarks: yes i said about  times now
[12:33] <savvas> ActionParsnip: exactly, hehehe
[12:33] <jerto> Hi, can anyone tell me how to send a ctrl+alt+del to a windows machine through Terminal Server ?
[12:34] <ActionParsnip> jerto: ctrl+alt+end
[12:34] <clarks> what i have to do if the grub up?
[12:34] <corigo3> Since the latest updates my Battery meter has disappeared. How can I get the battery meter to launch/display again?
[12:34] <ActionParsnip> jerto: ctrl+alt+home = win key
[12:34] <ActionParsnip> clarks: choose a kernel one older than you are using
[12:34] <erictus> exit
[12:34] <erictus> exirt
[12:34] <clarks> ok
[12:34] <erictus> exit
[12:34] <erictus> exit
[12:34] <FloodBot2> erictus: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:35] <jerto> Thank you ActionParsnip
[12:35] <zxd> what's Vcs-Bzr  in .dsc file
[12:35] <ilove19> thank you action parnship i start loading zip files
[12:36] <szymon_g> hi
[12:36] <ilove19>  :)
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> ilove19: np man
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> ilove19: ubuntu is a lot different to windows so you will have a lot to learn
[12:37] <ilove19> yes
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> ilove19: and you will no dout have initial issues
[12:37] <ilove19> ok
[12:38] <remoteCTRL> jrib: genious! i was allready doubting myself, cos i wanst able to find that:D
[12:39] <Mark_> ubuntu 8.10 is the first desktop distribution that has really impressed me
[12:40] <Mark_> as far as simplicity
[12:40] <Mark_> i mean i can walk an old lady through getting an iso and installing it over the phone in a few minutes
[12:40] <weir> try
[12:40] <weir> 中文
[12:41] <ActionParsnip> Mark_: try mandriva :)
[12:41] <ActionParsnip> Mark_: in fact try as many as you can, see which you like
[12:42] <clarks> ActionParsnip, i already use old kernel..
[12:42] <Mark_> oh i have for years
[12:42] <clarks> but my wireless still not working
[12:42] <BlueEagle> silkjc: When you re-install do you first uninstall (purge) the driver or are you just installing it again?
[12:42] <lorenzosu> I have a problem in Vinagre: When I connect to another machine I get an error that I can't scale asking me to disable visual effects
[12:42] <Mark_> ive got a mashup of all sorts of distros all over
[12:42] <Mark_> this is just the first time ive been impressed with a 'desktop for the masses'
[12:43] <weir> how to install the autodock in this system？
[12:43] <ActionParsnip> clarks: then something has borked it along the way, make sure the switch for the wifi is on and that its enabled in bios
[12:43] <clarks> ActionParsnip, how to check it..
[12:43] <ActionParsnip> weir: can you expand on "autodock"
[12:43] <clarks> i already switch it on and off
[12:44] <ActionParsnip> clarks: reboou and enter your systems setup. It varys wildly from system to system but its worth a check just to make sure its enabled
[12:44] <BlueEagle> mark_: It's good as long as it works. When stuff doesn't work then it's a hardship, but that's common for all distros and software at large. Also #ubuntu-offtopic might be a better place for this dialog.
[12:45] <ActionParsnip> weir: wb
[12:45] <weir> just a
[12:45] <weir> soft
[12:45] <sangi> could anyone tell me how to create ubuntu-archive-keyring.gpg
[12:45] <ActionParsnip> weir: please type in full sentances and explain what you are after and we can advise
[12:46] <rabbit_ubuntu> Hey guys
[12:46] <lorenzosu> I have a problem in Vinagre: When I connect to another machine I get an error that scale can't work with composite windows and asking me to disable visual effects
[12:46] <ActionParsnip> lorenzosu: looks like it doesnt like running with compiz / similar
[12:46] <macmoen> "can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon"  sombody can helpme
[12:47] <ActionParsnip> lorenzosu: or disable whatever 'scale' is
[12:47] <macmoen> can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon    sombody can helpme
[12:48] <macmoen> can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon    sombody can helpme ??????????????????????????????//

[12:48] <rabbit_ubuntu> Have a small question here. If my video card maxes at 512MB and I have 4GB of RAM(its not dedicated). In a virtual machine, can I allocate 512MB of Vid Mem to it? And if I do, will that reduce the Vid mem in Ubuntu or will it Keep both "machines" vid mem at 512, extracting from the sys RAM?
[12:49] <Mark_> rabbit_ubuntu, i dont know if it would let you, but thats not a good idea
[12:49] <lorenzosu> ActionParsnip: Disabling compiz did it but is this a bug?
[12:49] <ActionParsnip> rabbit_ubuntu: it will reduce what is available to the host
[12:49] <sopho> the ubuntu live cd worked well on my notebook computer (samsung q30), but after having installed it, when changing to graphics mode, the display remains black. what should i do?
[12:49] <ActionParsnip> lorenzosu: sounds like it, go see if you can wesearch something good and log a bug
[12:49] <rabbit_ubuntu> ActionParsnip: As in it will subtract from whats left of the 4GB?
[12:49] <rabbit_ubuntu> Mark_: How so?
[12:50] <Mark_> thats actual video memory
[12:50] <Mark_> change it below 12 and it will yell at you if its virtualbox
[12:50] <ActionParsnip> rabbit_ubuntu: i believe so. I dont know where  the system will take its video ram from though. I'd experiment with different settings
[12:50] <usser> rabbit_ubuntu, why do you need 512mb of video memory on a VM in the first place?
[12:50] <ActionParsnip> sopho: what video card?
[12:50] <Mark_> infact, read this
[12:50] <Mark_> VirtualBox technically supports guest resolutions of up to 64000 x 64000
[12:50] <Mark_> x 32bit which would require 16GB of VRAM. We chose the 128 MB because
[12:50] <Mark_> some other virtualization program has the same limit. If we allow more,
[12:50] <Mark_> some clever users would just increase it without understanding what it
[12:50] <Mark_> actually means ("the more the better").
[12:50] <FloodBot2> Mark_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:51] <Mark_> oops, i thought that would paste as one line
[12:51] <Mark_> my apologies
[12:51] <weir> i need to install a soft in the ubuntu system and the soft's name is autodock,a proffessor soft
[12:51] <Mark_> http://vbox.innotek.de/pipermail/vbox-users/2007-February/000812.html
[12:51] <ikonia> Mark_: no problem
[12:51] <rabbit_ubuntu> usser: lol, certain MMO's dont run native in Linux, OR with Wine
[12:51] <sopho> ActionParsnip, it's an "intel Extreme Graphics 2" chipset
[12:51] <Mark_> what mmo, wow? uo?
[12:52] <usser> rabbit_ubuntu, as Mark_ noted increasing the memory wont do you much good, because memory is not the bottleneck of a VM
[12:52] <clarks> Aanyone can help me in solving my wireless?
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> !info autodock
[12:52] <ActionParsnip> weir: ^
[12:52] <clarks>  Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)<--this is my nm...can anyonehelp me/
[12:53] <rabbit_ubuntu> Mark_: So is it that it WONT work? Or it just doesnt surpass 128?
[12:53] <clarks> my wireless seem cant on..
[12:53] <weir> ?
[12:53] <lorenzosu> Seems like xvnc4viewer works perfectly with compiz turned on
[12:53] <Mark_> thats the 64,000 question
[12:53] <burgua> hi all!
[12:53] <Mark_> its linux, so just about everything 'works' just never how you expect it
[12:53] <burgua> how to remove python2.5 and use only python 2.6?
[12:54] <Mark_> might make your host crawl, might crash with some out of vmem issue, but really, it wont give you any benefit
[12:54] <clarks> anyone can help me on my wirelss?
[12:54] <rabbit_ubuntu> usser: I see what you all are saying. But i'd like to know WHERE the vid mem of a vm takes that mem from. Is it the vid card? Or the Sys RAM?
[12:54] <Silkjc> BlueEagle: Missed earlier, purged
[12:54] <Mark_> i just looked in my virtualbox settings
[12:54] <Mark_> its capped at 128mb
[12:55] <sopho> so how do i configure X again?
[12:55] <sopho> not been to linux for years..
[12:55] <rabbit_ubuntu> Mark_: Yeah I noticed that myself as well. When typin to me. I'd appreciate if you put my user name. Its hard to notice certain things without it.
[12:56] <rabbit_ubuntu> usser: I see what you all are saying. But i'd like to know WHERE the vid mem of a vm takes that mem from. Is it the vid card? Or the Sys RAM?
[12:56] <king> .
[12:57] <clarks> anyone here pro in ubuntu?
[12:57] <usser> rabbit_ubuntu, its probably video ram, since virtualbox does 3d opengl stuff now it has to be
[12:57] <clarks> my wireless have problem here
[12:58] <Mark_> rabbit_ubuntu, sure. im trying to find the answer to that
[12:58] <bazhang> clarks, please open a terminal and type ifconfig
[12:58] <bullgard4> Is there available an OTR plugin for Gajim in Hardy?
[12:58] <clarks> bazhang, yeah there you are..
[12:58] <tony426> can someone tell me why when i close an app i can't use the data i copied from it? like copying from a text doc, but when i close it out, it's not in the clipboard anymore
[12:58] <bazhang> clarks, how many entries are there
[12:58] <clarks> two
[12:59] <clarks> eth0 and l0
[12:59] <ActionParsnip> weir: sudo apt-get install autodock
[12:59] <bazhang> eth and lo? clarks
[12:59] <rabbit_ubuntu> usser: Ahh...So in essence. id be left with 512 LESS 128 for my Linux box
[12:59] <clarks> eth0 and lo..yeah
[12:59] <ActionParsnip> rabbit_ubuntu: try it, you can always change it after you have set it (obv have to shutdown vm, change settings then boot)
[12:59] <bazhang> clarks, do you see anything in hardware drivers for that card
[12:59] <storrgie> what is the name of the remote desktop program so i can add it to my hosts.allow file?
[13:00] <ActionParsnip> storrgie: hosts.allow doesnt work like that
[13:00] <clarks> bazhang, you mean lspci?
[13:00] <ActionParsnip> storrgie: hosts.allow is for IP and names of systems allowed to connect to the system
[13:00] <Mark_> rabbit_ubuntu, im going through the source to find out where it allocates
[13:00] <stetho> Hi. I want to set up an Ubuntu server as a home router/firewall/fileserver/other things I haven't thought of yet server. Before I stumble blindly in to trying to get a Speedtouch USB ADSL modem working with Ubuntu Server and configuring DNS and so on, does anyone know if there's any useful sites I should be looking at for HowTos and FAQs?
[13:00] <storrgie> ActionParsnip: yes it does you can add httpd
[13:00] <storrgie> from all
[13:00] <stetho> I'm assuming I'm not the first person to do this
[13:00] <bazhang> clarks, in the system administration menu iirc
[13:00] <storrgie> ActionParsnip: i want to add vnc : all
[13:01] <bazhang> clarks, lets keep this in channel please
[13:01] <orly_owl> Does anyone know what license Arachnophilia is under? http://www.arachnoid.com/arachnophilia/index.php
[13:01] <rabbit_ubuntu> ActionParsnip: lol, I would have but I dont havethe laptop yet. But im just making mental preservations of what to do and not to. Its gonna be an hp tx2510us. Gonna clean off Vista IMMEDIATELY!!
[13:01] <clarks> bazhang, i dont know how to check the hardware..
[13:01] <rabbit_ubuntu> Mark_: Aight, thanks
[13:01] <ActionParsnip> storrgie: http://linux.die.net/man/5/hosts.allow
[13:01] <bazhang> clarks, additionally is this a dual boot, and/or does the wifi have a kill switch
[13:01] <clarks> bazhang, i think it can be fixed in terminal..but i forget the command..like modprobe and rmmod
[13:02] <clarks> bazhang, it have kill switch..
[13:02] <clarks> thats is the problem.
[13:02] <bazhang> clarks, make sure it is not set to off when you have booted
[13:02] <ActionParsnip> storrgie: that is the man page for the file, the is no mention of service names in there, it is for host ips and host names only
[13:02] <rabbit_ubuntu> ActionParsnip: Speaking of which, do you know if Linux has drivers for touchscreens/digitizers?
[13:02] <clarks> bazhang, thats why i dont know how to know if it is on or off
[13:02] <orly_owl> http://www.arachnoid.com/careware/
[13:02] <clarks> bazhang, i have to booted?
[13:02] <silv3r_m00n> hi there
[13:03] <bazhang> clarks, may take a bit of experimentation then :)
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> rabbit_ubuntu: ive seen some drivers somewhere, its not something im bothered about
[13:03] <silv3r_m00n> there are some files in trash which when I delete .. says permission denied
[13:03] <clarks> ok..
[13:03] <silv3r_m00n> how do I delete them
[13:03] <clarks> wait
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> silv3r_m00n: sudo rm <file>
[13:03] <bazhang> clarks, also the computer manual may have instructions as well
[13:03] <ActionParsnip> silv3r_m00n: or if its a folder: sudo rm -rf <folder to delete>
[13:03] <silv3r_m00n> ActionParsnip: how to remove a folder and all files and subfolders recursively
[13:03] <silv3r_m00n> oh fine
[13:03] <rabbit_ubuntu> ActionParsnip: Aight, just making sure. Im getting into digital painting/art. So it'd be a bit of a waste if that couldn't work effectively
[13:03] <sKeith> How can I display a list of all user i've added to my ubuntu? (bash or x)
[13:04] <ActionParsnip> silv3r_m00n: do *not* delete the trash folder itself, work from within the trash to empty it
[13:04] <jrib> sKeith: system -> administration -> users and groups
[13:04] <Iowahc> silv3r : rm -R <folder>
[13:04] <silv3r_m00n> ActionParsnip: using konqueror ?
[13:04] <silv3r_m00n> or konsole ?
[13:04] <ActionParsnip> rabbit_ubuntu: have a look around, you may find something
[13:04] <ActionParsnip> silv3r_m00n: konsole/terminal
[13:04] <Mark_> rabbit_ubuntu, i havent gone thoroughly through it, but it looks like its framebuffer memory
[13:04] <silv3r_m00n> ActionParsnip: inside .local/share/Trash there are two folders files and info
[13:04] <rabbit_ubuntu> ActionParsnip: Where exactly do I look for that? Or should I just google it?
[13:05] <rabbit_ubuntu> Mark_: AKA VRAM?
[13:05] <sKeith> how do I start x from a shell? I have xfce4 installed but only used it locally before.
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> rabbit_ubuntu: use whatever search engine you like. you could also check the !hcl
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> !hcl
[13:05] <Iowahc> silv3r_m00n within files should do the trick
[13:05] <Mark_> rabbit_ubuntu, i believe so
[13:05] <DaveCo> bye!
[13:06] <tempell> hi
[13:06] <rabbit_ubuntu> Mark_: Aight thanks much, I appreciate it
[13:06] <rabbit_ubuntu> ActionParsnip: Thanks alot. You helped
[13:06] <silv3r_m00n> Iowahc: but inside the info folder there are some more files
[13:06] <rabbit_ubuntu> usser: Thanks. helped alot
[13:07] <tempell> im getting strange messages when booting ubuntu hardy: update resolv.conf failed (seems the filesystem is still mounted ro at this point)
[13:07] <silv3r_m00n> related to files in the files folder
[13:07] <rabbit_ubuntu> Later guys
[13:07] <rabbit_ubuntu> Thanks again for the help
[13:07] <tempell> im getting strange messages when booting ubuntu hardy: update resolv.conf failed (seems the filesystem is still mounted ro at this point) - how to fix these messages?
[13:07] <Iowahc> silv3r_m00n looked in my Trashfolder. seems to be some reference, should be save to delete too
[13:07] <kraut> moin
[13:07] <silv3r_m00n> Iowahc: means I can simply clean the trash folder ?
[13:08] <ActionParsnip> tempell: check the file exists and that it has these permissions: andy@fileserver:~$ ls -l /etc/resolv.conf
[13:08] <ActionParsnip> -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 71 2009-02-23 23:11 /etc/resolv.conf
[13:08] <clarks> bazhang,
[13:08] <clarks> so how?
[13:08] <tempell> ActionParsnip: thx, i check
[13:08] <Iowahc> silv3r_m00n: yep, without deleting the files and infos foder
[13:08] <Iowahc> but it contents
[13:08] <silv3r_m00n> ok let me try
[13:08] <tempell> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Mar  9 12:19 /etc/resolv.conf -> /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf
[13:08] <clarks> huh..who can resovle my problem??
[13:09] <jerto> clarks, what's your problem exactly ?
[13:09] <bazhang> clarks, did you reboot with the kill switch set to -->wifi on?
[13:09] <clarks> my wireless not detech...
[13:09] <bullgard4> Is there available an OTR plugin for Gajim in Hardy?
[13:09] <jerto> clarks, did you type "sudo lspci " in your terminal ?
[13:09] <ActionParsnip> tempell: hmm, ok and what is the ls -l of /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf
[13:09] <clarks> Jerto wait
[13:09] <ActionParsnip> jerto: users can lspci, no need for sudo
[13:09] <jerto> I did not know that ActionParsnip
[13:09] <clarks> jerto, then?
[13:09] <clarks> i already lspci
[13:09] <jerto> Clarks, let's keep it in the channel please
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> jerto: not all commands need sudo
[13:10] <tempell> ActionParsnip: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 65 Mar  9 12:16 /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf
[13:10] <clarks> jerto, yeah im keep in channel..im not pm u
[13:10] <sKeith> jrib - the only thing in system is synaptic package manager.
[13:10] <jerto> Sorry I changed my color settings and get confused
[13:10] <bullgard4> In my file ~/.metacity/117f00010100~088520016.ms does '.ms'stand for  Metacity session?
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> tempell: ok that looks good, you could try copying the file over the link. I dont get why it is a link to another file, thats weird
[13:10] <clarks> jerto, after lspci what should i do?
[13:11] <jerto> Try rmmod iwl3945
[13:11] <jrib> sKeith: run « users-admin » in a terminal (inside X)
[13:11] <tempell> ActionParsnip: hmmm i might just copy it, but its a problem concerning all of our servers
[13:11] <natsukashi> Sometimes RythmBox, Spotify and foobar2k (the last 2 run through Wine.) just randomly crash / stop playing. Is this a common issue? :/
[13:11] <clarks> jerto already
[13:11] <clarks> then?
[13:11] <jerto> clarks, then modprobe iwl3945
[13:11] <jerto> clarks, can you see your wifi icon now ?
[13:11] <clarks> then?

[13:26] <Maarek> why is it when you uninstall apache2 and or delete the /etc/apache2 folder you cannot install back to that spot?
[13:26] <erictus> hi geena
[13:26] <jerto> clarks, did you try  ifup wlan0 ?
[13:26] <jerto> I doubt that would work but who knows ...
[13:27] <clarks> jerto what the command?
[13:27] <Sunil_> hi guys
[13:27] <oCean_> Maarek: details? What is the error you get (when reinstalling?)
[13:27] <KOUY> I need help. I installed Ubuntu 8.10 and i had problems with network. Is there something wrong with this version of Ubuntu?
[13:27] <Sunil_> anyone knows a good fix for XKB activating error?
[13:27] <jerto> clarks ifup wlan0
[13:27] <Maarek> oCean_: I accidentially uninstalled LAMP on my server, but after reinstalling it, php didn't work.
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> KOUY: did you install kubuntu-desktop on ubuntu or have yuo done a clean install?
[13:28] <clarks> ifup: failed to open statefile /var/run/network/ifstate: Permission denied<---maybe use sudo?
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> jerto: needs sudo for that duder
[13:28] <KOUY> clean install
[13:28] <Maarek> oCean_: I removed Postgrelsql and that removed LAMP
[13:28] <jerto> yes, sudo...
[13:28] <ActionParsnip> KOUY: did you md5 check the iso you downloaded as well as verify the cd was burned ok on the first boot screen?
[13:28] <KOUY> no
[13:29] <oCean_> Maarek: again, details are important. What did you do to reinstall, What are the errors you see, etc
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> KOUY: do so so that we know the cd is good and the image you downloaded isnt damaged
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> KOUY: md5 checking is ESSENTIAL so that you know the disk you have in your hand is not damaged
[13:29] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | kouy
[13:30] <Maarek> oCean_: i reinstalled LAMP, but that didn't configure php correctly.  so I thought I should remove /etc/apache2.  After that sudo apt-get apache2 didn't install and I was stuck w/out apache2.  is there a way to install apache2 back to /etc/apach2?
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> KOUY: if the iso checks out, boot the cd up and the first screen will have an option to check the cd, if those both pass then we have a bigger issue
[13:30] <oCean_> Maarek: apache is not installed in /etc/apache2. That is the directory for the configuration files for apache2
[13:30] <KOUY> ok, thanks a lot.
[13:31] <Svish> when does next version of ubuntu get released?
[13:31] <erictus> hi
[13:31] <bullgard4> Is there available an OTR plugin for Gajim in Hardy?
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> Svish: next month at some point, ask in #ubuntu+1
[13:31] <Svish> can't find anything about it on Ubuntu website... probably me who is blind though :p
[13:31] <Svish> ActionParsnip: ok, will do
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> !info Gajim
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> !info Gajim hardy
[13:32] <Maarek> oCean_: figures... I spent time reinstalling the OS and running any upgrade anyways.  I didnt' have much of a database anyways since it was already backed up.  BUT... is there a way to get the config files back if they are removed?
[13:32] <tobor> "Gajin" ?
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> bullgard4: you sure of the name?
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> tobor: thats what i thought
[13:32] <DIFH-iceroot> ActionParsnip: you mean gaim?
[13:32] <glymph> !info gajim
[13:32] <ActionParsnip> DIFH-iceroot: it's bullguard asking
[13:32] <glymph> case sensitive, it appears
[13:32] <DIFH-iceroot> ActionParsnip: ok
[13:33] <bullgard4> ActionParsnip: I am sure that I am using the Ubuntu program Gajim.
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> bullgard4: what is OTR?
[13:33] <oCean_> Maarek: when 'removed' - then there is no 'undelete' option. Reinstalling apache2 should do the trick
[13:33] <bullgard4> ActionParsnip: Off-the-Records
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> bullgard4: yeah it appears ubottu likes lower case only
[13:33] <cusco> hi there
[13:34] <tobor> heh, How UNIXy!
[13:34] <cusco> im trying to boot from usb
[13:34] <cusco> the installer says it is unable to mount cdrom
[13:34] <cusco> what is the workarround that
[13:34] <Maarek> oCean_: thanks, but after the Reinstall, php didn't work, it would download the files rather than display them.  There must have been something else and something missing from php.
[13:34] <bullgard4> ActionParsnip: Was this your answer to the question which I put at the outset?
[13:34] <oCean_> Maarek: I know
[13:34] <ActionParsnip> bullgard4: http://forums.miranda-im.org/showthread.php?t=5810&page=11
[13:35] <cusco> Maarek: were you re-instaloling php to make it work?
[13:35] <Maarek> oCean_: the reinstalls were tasksel and or apt-get
[13:35] <oCean_> Maarek: the enabling of modules (which php is) happens in /etc/apache2 (sub) directory
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> bullgard4: im just trying to find out what both parts of the question are. acronyms can be misleading so please clarify them
[13:35] <Maarek> oCean_: oh
[13:35] <oCean_> Maarek: ok. So at this point you can redo the entire lamp install, or we can try re-install apache2 only
[13:35] <oCean_> Maarek: and enabling php ofcourse
[13:36] <Maarek> oCean_: are there docs on the re-enabling of those mods?
[13:36] <zombie_monkey> has anyone ever upgraded ubuntu successfully form one version to the next? never worked for me
[13:36] <oCean_> Maarek: the command is "sudo a2enmod php"
[13:36] <zombie_monkey> I got a ton of "application already installed" errors and finally it just disappeared, then all aps stopped running, although a panel remained, so I went to the first virtual console and did a sudo reboot, and now GDM doesn't launch and trying to run the upgrade again manually throws a circular dependency error
[13:36] <cusco> oh gosh
[13:36] <jharkn> zombie_monkey: yes
[13:36] <oCean_> Maarek: hardly need a doc :)
[13:36] <zombie_monkey> that's after going half the way through
[13:37] <Maarek> oCean_: I thought there would be more... *cp's the command*.  Thanks, gotta get back to work
[13:37] <cusco> run apache2 -t -D DUMP_MODULES
[13:37] <cusco> it should list php
[13:37] <jharkn> root, lol
[13:37] <cusco> if not
[13:37] <cusco> if not run a2enmod

[13:39] <cusco> I can manually mount usb contents into /cdrom
[13:39] <zombie_monkey> I don't use ubuntu anymore anyway, it was just an install in a small partition that was still at 7.10 and I wanted to see if the upgrade tool will work, which of course it didn't, it never has :D
[13:39] <ActionParsnip> cusco: are you installing debian or ubuntu?
[13:39] <bullgard4> ActionParsnip: I am told that there is one. But so far I did not manage to enter it. So I concluded that it is closed for the past 14 days at least.
[13:40] <cusco> ActionParsnip: ubuntu, but I did not use usbcreator
[13:40] <cusco> ActionParsnip: also, im using the alternate version

[13:40] <cusco> it is not enoufh since I want to boot otherstuff from that usb drive

[13:43] <MattJ> bullgard4: Gajim only had OTR support temporarily, I believe
[13:43] <MattJ> bullgard4: They do already have end-to-end encryption support though
[13:44] <bullgard4> MattJ: Ah! Thank you for commenting. Which kind of end-to-end encryption is it which you refer to?
[13:44] <MattJ> bullgard4: It's Jabber-specific, and only Gajim implements it currently
[13:45] <bullgard4> MattJ: Ok. I will do some more snooping. --  Thank you.
[13:45] <MattJ> np
[13:45] <MattJ> bullgard4: Gajim has a room on Jabber at gajim@conference.gajim.org

[13:50] <Gaeel> nope, I'll apt-get and see if it does the job

[13:52] <acech> Hi Guys - Is there an easy way to change screen resolution between two settings?
[13:53] <ZykoticK9> I'd like to configure Nvidia TwinView Dual Monitor setup, so both monitors act as one single screen.  Example: the Menu bar would reach across both screens from side-to-side. Why: would like compiz's cube to be a single cube instead of 2 individual cubes.  I did see this on my desktop once, but it was due to a miss configuration - so it can be done.
[13:53] <acech> I have a widescreen laptop, which is docked with a non wide screen display and want to have something like an icon I can click on to toggle the resolutions?
[13:53] <Asad> amarok2 takes exclusive control of my audio ... any other app / media player that I run starts freezing or play with no audio .... any ideas?
[13:54] <Flynsarmy> How do you mount an NTFS drive with the owner being a specified user rather than root?
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> acech: you could have scripts liked to xrandr
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> Flynsarmy: you can use UID=1000 to allow all users to write
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> wel, uid=1000
[13:55] <Flynsarmy> ActionParsnip, writing isn't the problem, its sharing folders on NTFS drives
[13:55] <ZykoticK9> Asad, did you happen to remove pulseaudio from your system?  I find Alsa doesn't play nice with sharing the audio between multiple sources.  Don't know any specifics for you however, I don't use amarok?  Good luck.
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> Flynsarmy: so you have an ntfs partition in an ubuntu system which you want to share with samba? is that right?
[13:55] <Flynsarmy> ActionParsnip, yes
[13:56] <Asad> ZykoticK9: so you recommend that I use pulseaudio ?
[13:56] <acech> ActionParsnip - ah Ok that looks interesting. Can I put a script on the panel with an icon?
[13:56] <Asad> what's this "phonon" ?
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> Flynsarmy: then add an entry to /etc/samba/smb.conf
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> !phonon
[13:56] <ZykoticK9> Asad, not really, just wondering if you removed it.
[13:56] <Asad> no I didn't ..
[13:56] <ZykoticK9> Asad, so your probably using it right now then.
[13:57] <Flynsarmy> ActionParsnip, newbie here, i'd have no idea how to do that
[13:57] <Asad> no .. I have configured to use ALSA from sound settings
[13:57] <ActionParsnip> Flynsarmy: sudo apt-get install samba; gksudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf
[13:57] <Gaeel> I got this as a the result of a "file -k Markov.anydbm.db" command and I got "Markov.anydbm.db: Berkeley DB (Hash, version 9, native byte-order)\012- Berkeley DB\012-  (Hash, version 9, little-endian)"
[13:57] <ActionParsnip> Flynsarmy: http://pastebin.com/f1efaa27e
[13:57] <Gaeel> Should I use vi?
[13:57] <ActionParsnip> Flynsarmy: here's mine, the only bit you need is at the bottom of the file
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> Flynsarmy: te word in th e brackets is the share name, the rest is self explanatory
[13:58] <erUSUL> Gaeel: nope you should use some software that can manipulate berkley DB's
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> Flynsarmy: you will need to have the partition mounted to be able to share it
[13:59] <oCean_> Gaeel: what is it exactly that you want to do?
[13:59] <Gaeel> oCean_, I want to modify what's in that file, so I can feed text for my bot to read without having to spam my IRC channel
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> Flynsarmy: after you save the file, you will need to run: sudo smbpasswd -a $USER
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> Flynsarmy: then type your login password 3 times, this will set the password used to connect to the samba service for your username
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> Flynsarmy: last command is: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> Flynsarmy: job done
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> !samba
[14:02] <Flynsarmy> ActionParsnip, I installed samba using the 'mark packages by task' in synaptic package manager. would that mean i don't need to do the smbpasswd step?
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> ys you will still need that step
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> synaptic only installs the package
[14:02] <jerto> Gaeel, what is the application that uses the Berkley DB ?
[14:04] <Gaeel> jerto, the Markov responder plugin for supybot
[14:04] <clarks> my problem not yet fixed...can anyonehelp me how to fixed the wireles..?
[14:04] <oCean_> Gaeel: ok. Well, I'm not sure if there is an app to manipulate that specific file. Often a related file is edited, than the .db file is re-generated. Sorry, don't know the specifics.
[14:04] <Flynsarmy> ActionParsnip, it also set it all up. for instance i can right click on any folder - properties - sharing and enable sharing that way. It just doesn't work for NTFS drives because theyre mounted iwth root privileges because of ntfs-config
[14:05] <Gaeel> I found http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/berkeley-db/index.html so I'm reading and learning and downloading from there
[14:05] <plouffe> what's the best player for .rm, .ram files? I have realplayer 11 installed, but I just can't get it to stop flickering. In the other players I could fix the flickering by setting video output to X Window System (No Xv)
[14:05] <jerto> Gaeel, Maybe there is a way to change some settings in this plugin to modify your .db file
[14:05] <plouffe> but the other players don't play the .rm, .ram files
[14:05] <clarks> jerto?
[14:06] <Gaeel> Thanks for teachning me the "file" command and pointing me in the right direction
[14:06] <jerto> clarks ?
[14:06] <Gaeel> jerto, I'll try that next if I can't directly edit the database
[14:06] <clarks> jerto, my problem not yet fixed..

[14:12] <KDB9000> emhs, have you tried unplugging, waiting 10 seconds, and plugging it back in?
[14:12] <emhs> oCean_: Unlikely.  I configured the router myself, and upon inspection via hard-line, found the settings to be the same.
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> emhs: is it for all systems, or just one?
[14:13] <emhs> KDB9000: Not yet.  Probably a good idea.
[14:13] <emhs> ActionParsnip: All.
[14:13] <clarks> its still not fixed..
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> emhs: try turning the router off for 5 mins
[14:13] <oCean_> emhs: ok. So it's not that wireless is disabled on the router?
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> clarks: use ndiswrapper + windows driver

[14:13] <KDB9000> emhs, sometimes the Linksys wireless here at work freaks out and I have to do the unplug and plug back in thing to get it to work
[14:13] <clarks> ActionParsnip,  how to type it?
[14:13] <emhs> oCean_: Nope.  Definitely enabled.  I can see the SSID broadcast.

[14:15] <KDB9000> hunter, I am not sure about the cover thing. the play button is what I see and I used flashblock. check to make sure it isn't installed in the package manager (and you keep spelling my name wrong)

[14:17] <clarks> ActionParsnip, i dont get it..
[14:17] <ActionParsnip> clarks: sudo apt-get install ndisgtk
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> clarks: ok what does lspci say your wifi is

[14:18] <clarks> wait

[14:19] <clarks> ActionParsnip, u want me to paste it in paste bin?
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> clarks: its just one line, paste it in here
[14:20] <clarks> which line?
[14:20] <dennda> Some more recent versions of openssh allow chrooting a user (or a group of users). Does that approach *easily* allow granting that user permission to use binaries like wget or others that I did not copy into his chroot? (I want to chroot a user, but don't want to restrict access to scp/sftp only and don't want to copy binaries)

[14:25] <_Skaarj_> does the ubuntu-server-edition use the same package-respositorys as the vanilla-edition or does it use a differen respository ?
[14:25] <Pici> Antor: Are you looking for a persistant USB install?
[14:25] <Pici> _Skaarj_: They all use the same repositories
[14:25] <clarks> Pici..i just follow what helper ask me to do
[14:25] <_Skaarj_> thanls
[14:25] <_Skaarj_> thanks
[14:25] <shyam> see in a proper install, /boot should have a file vmlinuz with some version number right? can we say otherwise its a failed install?
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> clarks: give me chance. remember i'm doing all this stuff that you should be doing so be patient
[14:25] <jerto> Pici he would do a modprobe after

[14:25] <riwa> I'm updating my system with the guide on ubuntu website (from 7.04 to 7.10) and most reposotories work fine. However 2 doesn't. These are: http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/multiverse/binary-i386/Packages.gz: 404 Not Found

[14:25] <Antor> Pici : i need to install ubunto on flashdisk and need to boot from it. I dont mean a simple startup disk or try it thingie
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> clarks: download that file and extract it, then use ndisgtk to install the driver (point it to the inf file)
[14:26] <SiebaZ> hey guys is there someone who knows how to apply ppscsi with the actual kernel?
[14:26] <riwa> Are they essential or should I continue updating?
[14:26] <Pici> Antor: See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent

[14:26] <bazhang> !upgrade | riwa see gutsyupgrades
[14:26] <arvind_khadri> Ranakah, using graphics card?
[14:26] <clarks> ActionParsnip, how the command to extract/
[14:26] <bazhang> riwa, feisty is no longer supported (ie end of life)
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> clarks: you'll need this link too https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> clarks: whats the file called?
[14:27] <clarks> 2009-03-09 22:26:26 (1.71 MB/s) - `redirect.htm?aspxerrorpath=%2Fconfirm.aspx' saved [58/58]<--this one?
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> clarks: ok intel dont like leeching
[14:28] <clarks> ActionParsnip, so what next?
[14:28] <riwa> bazhang: I am viewing that site but it doesn't show the error I get. I am using the old repositiries proided by that site and I have commented them out.
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> clarks: go to www.intel.com and get your driver there, you want the windows xp pro one (not 64bit)
[14:28] <bazhang> riwa, and you added the old-releases ones?
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> clarks: I cant give you the link as the intel site doesnt allow it so you'll have to get it yourself
[14:29] <riwa> bazhang: Yeah. the ones mentioned in the website.
[14:29] <Ranakah> arvind_khadri geforce 7600GS
[14:29] <clarks> its very hard to understand..
[14:29] <Flynsarmy> how do i find out my uuid?
[14:29] <bazhang> riwa, and after adding you updated sources.list?
[14:29] <Pici> clarks: If I may ask, what version of Ubuntu aer you using?
[14:29] <Pici> !uuid | Flynsarmy
[14:29] <clarks> 8.10
[14:29] <bazhang> !blkid
[14:29] <clarks> i think i dont need to d/l that much ActionParsnip
[14:29] <clarks> because before this my wireless are ok..
[14:30] <clarks> it just because i dont shut down my laptop properly..because i forget to charge my batery..
[14:30] <riwa> bazhang: No. Must have missed that. Unless you do it with the check button. I have used the GUI for updating.
[14:30] <clarks> Pici, can u help me
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> clarks: you have had 3 or 4 people help you now. ndiswrapper WILL work for sure, if you get the driver and extract it then throw it at ndisgtk you will have wifi
[14:31] <racquad_> hi guys. I'm having problems using Sabayon under 8.10. anyone else?
[14:31] <clarks> ActionParsnip, the problem it very hard to understand..
[14:31] <riwa> bazhang: I'm puzzled by the fact that both repos points to the same file: Packages.gz. Couldn't it be that I already have it?
[14:31] <jerto> clarks, what is your laptop ?
[14:31] <clarks> if you can make it step by step i think i will..
[14:31] <oCean_> riwa: after editing sources.list you need to run "sudo apt-get update" - I don't know what button it is in gui
[14:31] <clarks> jerto, acer
[14:31] <Pici> ActionParsnip: ndiswrapper shouldnt need to be used at all, the 3945 driver has been part of the kernel for a long time
[14:32] <ActionParsnip> Pici: well its not working now and a illion folks have helped with no joy
[14:32] <jerto> clark, on your acer laptop, you have an icon which indicates if your wifi is on or not, right ?
[14:32] <arvind_khadri> Ranakah, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=333135 does it help
[14:32] <riwa> oCean_: It's apparently the same as the check button. I get the same error msgs.
[14:33] <clarks> jerto, yeah..if the wifi on..the wifi light will on..
[14:33] <erUSUL> riwa: all apt repos have a Packages.gz file. that is by desing
[14:33] <riwa> erUSUL: So they're different?
[14:33] <Ranakah> arvind_khadri tnx :)
[14:33] <jerto> clark, the light is not lit in your case, right ?
[14:33] <Lartza_> Anybody can help? FUll screen programs mess up display
[14:33] <clarks> jerto, yeahhh
[14:33] <oCean_> riwa: and in the output of 'sudo apt-get update' can you see the old-releases repos mentioned?
[14:33] <erUSUL> riwa: if the contects of the repos are different its Packages.gz files will be different afaics
[14:33] <Lartza_> desktop effects off
[14:33] <clarks> its not on now..
[14:34] <Lartza_> and i have run metacity --replace
[14:34] <arvind_khadri> Ranakah, np , but do tell does it help you or not :)
[14:34] <clarks> some helper before can fixed it for me without d/l it..
[14:34] <clarks> it just command ..
[14:34] <clarks> fixed in terminal but i forget the command..
[14:34] <jerto> clarks, this means you did not activate your wifi, that's all
[14:34] <racquad_> hi guys. I'm having problems using Sabayon under 8.10. anyone else?
[14:34] <clarks> jerto, i already switch it on..
[14:34] <CoJaBo-Aztec> Is it possible to turn off pasting ranample ana
[14:35] <emhs> ActionParsnip, oCean_, KDB9000: It worked.
[14:35] <jerto> clarks, how did you do ?
[14:35] <riwa> oCean_: Yeah. They are mentioned alot.  But in the end, two repos says they cannot retrieve information. What also puzzles me is that these repos are not in my sources list.
[14:35] <racquad_> is there any other way to lock things up on gnome besides sabayon?
[14:35] <CoJaBo-Aztec> dom garbage when I bump the touchpad?
[14:35] <jtaji> clarks: are you using 8.10?
[14:35] <KDB9000> emhs, so the reset worked?
[14:35] <clarks> yeah jtaji
[14:35] <riwa> erUSUL: Ok. Which means I need them to update i guess
[14:35] <clarks> jerto, i just switch it..and restart the laptop..
[14:35] <emhs> KDB9000: It would appear to have.  I'm talking to you, and not wired in this time.  ;)
[14:35] <clarks> but now it cant be fixed
[14:36] <Flynsarmy> when mounting in fstab i can stick the argument uid=<integer> - thats my current users id value? how do i find that out? blkid only shows uids of drives
[14:36] <oCean_> riwa: ok. Do "grep multiverse /etc/apt/sources.list" To see if that one repo is still active
[14:36] <jerto> ok clarks, when you swith it, the light is on, right ?
[14:36] <jtaji> clarks: have you installed the linux-backports-modules-intrepid package?
[14:36] <divXjunk> hi ppl !!  i would like to ssh to: server.name.com port 702 . i tried 'ssh server.name.com 702'. it gives me an error saying it can't connect at port 22. How do i ssh to another port than 22?
[14:36] <clarks> jtaji, i dont think so..
[14:36] <KDB9000> emhs, well that is good.
[14:36] <oCean_> riwa: since it needs to be commented out.
[14:36] <clarks> jerto, if like that i dont need help here..
[14:36] <emhs> KDB9000: Both computers are happily surfing now.
[14:36] <Pici> divXjunk: ssh -p 702 hostname
[14:36] <clarks> just because the light is not on thats why im asking here..
[14:37] <storbeck> divXjunk: ssh server.name.com -p 702
[14:37] <jerto> clarks, i just want you to confirm the light is on before reinitializing the module
[14:37] <divXjunk> Pici thanx storbeck too!!
[14:37] <clarks> jerto, how to confirm it?
[14:37] <clarks> i also dont know how to confirm it..
[14:37] <jtaji> clarks: what problem are you having with it?
[14:37] <jerto> clarks, your wifi lght is on now ?
[14:37] <clarks> jtaji, my wireless is not working..
[14:37] <clarks> jerto, no..
[14:38] <riwa> oCean_: It is commented out: ---> http://rafb.net/p/JZjHCp42.html
[14:38] <Lartza_> Full screen programs not working, what do I do?
[14:38] <Lartza_> Desktop effect off
[14:38] <jtaji> clarks: install the package I mentioned, sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-intrepid
[14:38] <Lartza_> did metacity --replace
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> emhs: the power off and on?
[14:39] <emhs> ActionParsnip: Yep.
[14:39] <jtaji> clarks: then restart and it should work
[14:39] <ActionParsnip> emhs: fixes a lot dude, its about 40% of my job rebooting stuff
[14:39] <emhs> ActionParsnip: Powered off, played a game of atc, powered on, connected without security, turned security on, connected with, and w1n.
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> emhs: especially stupid VMs that dont reboot properly
[14:40] <clarks> ok jtaji
[14:40] <clarks> wait
[14:40] <oCean_> riwa: so they are... that's puzzling... :/
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> emhs: winner
[14:40] <webby> Hey guys... I've googled around. Is it possible to get photoshop cs3 with wine going?
[14:40] <riwa> oCean_: Yeah indeed. A restart wouldn't matter, would it?
[14:41] <bazhang> webby, did you check appdb
[14:41] <erUSUL> !appdb | webby
[14:41] <webby> ah thank you
[14:41] <oCean_> riwa: I don't think so. Maybe closing upgrade gui and then re-run the apt-get update (if not already done)
[14:42] <riwa> oCean_: Same result
[14:42] <ActionParsnip> webby: if push comes to shouve you can run virtualbox in seamless mode and run PSCS3 there
[14:43] <oCean_> riwa: and in /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory ?
[14:43] <BABER> hi
[14:43] <riwa> oCean_: What about it?
[14:43] <oCean_> riwa: well, specific repos could be mentioned there
[14:43] <LordFDisk> webby,  Or you could try CorssOver as well
[14:43] <oCean_> riwa: then those are included
[14:44] <BABER> how can i instal all video&audio codec ?
[14:44] <Pici> BABER: The easiest way is to install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[14:44] <oCean_> riwa: it's really my final guess - then I'm out of options :/
[14:44] <vladuz976> anybody know a good chanel to discuss hardware?
[14:44] <riwa> oCean_: feisty-multiverse.list
[14:44] <erUSUL> BABER: appart from what Pici said install w32codecs from medibuntu
[14:44] <Pici> vladuz976: ##hardware
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> webby: it'd be a MASSIVE bloat as youd be running windows and linux, wine i think can run it ok
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> webby: if with a little tweaking
[14:44] <erUSUL> !w32codecs | BABER
[14:44] <riwa> oCean_: Oh. You mean in that file
[14:45] <oCean_> riwa: yay! That's the one
[14:45] <vladuz976> Pici: you mean #hardware?
[14:45] <Pici> vladuz976: No, ##hardware
[14:45] <oCean_> riwa: the mulitverse is apparently still enabled through that file
[14:45] <webby> ActionParsnip: wine doesn't actually boot windows though right?
[14:45] <vladuz976> Pici: what network is that on?
[14:45] <riwa> oCean_: So I comment them out right?
[14:45] <oCean_> riwa: please try
[14:45] <Pici> vladuz976: This one. freenode.
[14:45] <vladuz976> Pici: thanks
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> webby: no, its an abstraction layer to translate windows called to linux calls
[14:46] <BABER> erUSUL: is your means i type apt-get install w32codecs ?
[14:46] <riwa> oCean_: You're a genius! Thanks a lot man!!!!!
[14:46] <webby> ActionParsnip: okay that's what i thought...
[14:46] <erUSUL> BABER: after you added medibuntu to you sources
[14:46] <erUSUL> BABER: see http://www.medibuntu.org
[14:46] <oCean_> riwa: yw! it was somewhat of a quest, though :)
[14:46] <erUSUL> BABER: and after installing ubuntu-restricted-extras
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> webby: vbox in seamless mode will put a start menu at the bottom of your screen
[14:47] <riwa> oCean_: Yeah.. Then I guess you're the knight with the golden keyboard
[14:47] <webby> ActionParsnip: which method would you suggest?
[14:48] <webby> vbox or wine
[14:48] <webby> I'll probably need illustrator too :\
[14:48] <ActionParsnip> webby: i'd suggest wine personally, if it doesnt run, vox WILL run it
[14:48] <oCean_> riwa: :) Upgrading all the way to intrepid (?) - then you still have a long journey ahead. Good luck
[14:48] <riwa> oCean_: Maybe we should notify someone about this.
[14:49] <riwa> oCean_: Yeah, I know. But I think it'll be easier once I get to 8.04
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> webby: could find native alternatives instead
[14:49] <oCean_> riwa: If you have an account on the forums, a post there would be a good idea.
[14:49] <Flynsarmy> If i wanted to mount a drive in fstab with full privs, would umask be 666 or 777?
[14:49] <jrib> Flynsarmy: what filesystem?
[14:49] <Lartza_> Is there newer fgrlx anywhere?
[14:49] <Flynsarmy> jrib, its an NTFS drive i'm trying to mount
[14:50] <jrib> !ntfs > Flynsarmy
[14:50] <riwa> I think I do. Used ubuntu a long time ago (as you notice). I'll write a small entry
[14:50] <jrib> Flynsarmy: you want 000 as your umask
[14:50] <gladiator> hi. is there any other battery management tool other than System->Preferences->Power Management?
[14:50] <ActionParsnip> Flynsarmy: in fstab its inverted, so a mask of 777 needs to be implemented with 000 (no idea why)
[14:51] <gladiator> Power management thing doesnt let me choose low and critical battery levels .. and the actions to take
[14:51] <riwa> oCean_: Should I let it re-write the repos file or should I just undo the changes (uncommenting/commenting)
[14:51] <kebomix> hello , any link to emesene 1.0 instead of new one 1.0.1 :S
[14:51] <ActionParsnip> !info emesene
[14:51] <oCean_> riwa: sorry? At what point?
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> kebomix: in what release of ubuntu?
[14:52] <kebomix> 8.04
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> !info emesene hardy
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> seems to be 1.0 in repo
[14:52] <riwa> oCean_: After the update is done.
[14:53] <oCean_> riwa: after update you'll have a sources.list specific to that distro/version. Actually that is why there is an /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory, in which one can add all custom repositories.
[14:53] <Ethos> anyone used partimage for taking an image of ubuntu server before (with the live cd)
[14:54] <kebomix> ActionParsnip: it is just going to gray as it crashed !!
[14:54] <oCean_> riwa: it's up to you which repo's you want enabled.
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> kebomix: use killall emesene
[14:55] <kebomix> ActionParsnip :okay i did before , but it dont work when i try to open it , i dont know wut is wrong with it !
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> kebomix: is the process dead now?
[14:56] <kebomix> ActionParsnip : yeah , every time to goes to be gray
[14:56] <riwa> oCean_: But it says that my repos mirror is old or internal. But it says right here to overwrite. Thanks again
[14:56] <ActionParsnip> kebomix: have you tried renaming its config folder, you will have to reconfigure but it may be damaged and make the app go wonky
[14:57] <kebomix> ActionParsnip : how to do that ?
[14:57] <blip-> hi all,  every time I boot the machine I usually issue the command "sudo hdparm -B 255 /dev/sda"... instead of doing this manually and entering the password everytime,  I added "hdparm -B 255 /dev/sda" to /etc/rc.local but it isn't running the command. any ideas ?   thanks
[14:57] <ActionParsnip> kebomix: cd ~/; ls -a
[14:57] <ActionParsnip> kebomix: do you see a folder name .emesene at all
[14:58] <Kartagis> why do I get 2 different versions when I type apt-cache show firefox ?
[14:58] <ActionParsnip> Kartagis: depends on your repos
[14:58] <jtaji> blip-: add it to /etc/hdparm.conf, you can either add options in it's format, or if you look at the very end of that file, you can just put the command line there
[14:58] <cthompson__> is there any way to force scp to stay open(ie. preventing "stalled")
[14:58] <cthompson__> ?
[14:58] <erUSUL> blip-: see /etc/hdparm.conf
[14:58] <kebomix> ActionParsnip : no
[14:59] <ActionParsnip> kebomix: you need to find out the folder or file name that emesene uses for config and rename it so that when you rerun it you get stock settings. This can fix things
[15:00] <tony426> anyone know the location of the fonts folder?
[15:00] <kebomix> okay
[15:00] <jrib> tony426: why?
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> !fonts | tony426
[15:00] <tony426> thanks
[15:01] <tony426> jrib, to change my mplayer fonts
[15:01] <jgjones> tony426, fonts in your own home folder ~/.fonts - system-wide fonts - /usr/share/fonts
[15:01] <clarks> its fixed already
[15:02] <jtaji> clarks: backports modules fixed it?
[15:02] <clarks> thanks jerto jtaji
[15:02] <clarks> i dont know..
[15:02] <clarks> i wrong switch..i use bluetoth switch lol
[15:02] <tony426> crap, i don't have a /usr/share directory
[15:03] <tony426> nvm, i goofed
[15:04] <jrib> tony426: iirc, mplayer fonts go to ~/.mplayer/font/
[15:04] <jerto> clarks if you switched the wrong button on, you owe all of us a huge pint of beer !
[15:04] <clarks> lol..
[15:04] <clarks> im sorry jerto
[15:04] <storbeck> !fonts | jgjones
[15:04] <jerto> no worries clarks, I'm thirsty ;-)
[15:05] <clarks> lol
[15:05] <[[n00b]]> one simple question ... are pipes in binary mode? (everything i will send trough will be left the way it is -- no modifications) ?
[15:05] <tony426> thanks, i got it
[15:05] <sinnadyr> someone please; have been trying to mount my NTFS-disk with a F'd up Vista, but even if I try to force it it wont work :S
[15:05] <[[n00b]]> i'm trying to do something like
[15:05] <[[n00b]]> dd if=/dev/sdc of=/dev/stdout | gzip -cf9 >> image.gz
[15:06] <djungelmums> how do i install nvidia drivers manually?
[15:07] <tony426> sinnadyr: install ntfsprogs, worked for me
[15:07] <tony426> make sure to do a force mount
[15:07] <sinnadyr> hmm, it is from a live cd :P
[15:07] <sinnadyr> tony426: does it work to install applications when in live?
[15:07] <tony426> djungelmums: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new or something like that
[15:07] <jrib> djungelmums: why not use System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers?
[15:08] <tony426> sinnadyr: not sure what you mean
[15:08] <tony426> sinnadyr: oh, idk
[15:08] <sinnadyr> idk?
[15:08] <jtaji> sinnadyr: you can install packages when using livecd
[15:08] <tony426> sinnadyr: i don't know. haven't tried it on a live cd
[15:09] <jerto> djungelmums, what version of the Nvidia drivers do you want to install ?
[15:09] <djungelmums> the newest beta
[15:09] <sinnadyr> jtaji: sweet, will try that
[15:09] <djungelmums> the ones in the repo didnt work too well with compiz for me
[15:09] <tony426> can someone tell me how to not show mounted drives on my desktop?
[15:09] <Lartza_> Any help? Screen gets messed up when program gets full-screen, but the same program works fine windowed
[15:10] <jerto> djungelmums, the version 96 works well for me with compiz
[15:10] <Lartza_> this with gridwars, teeworlds, propably any other too
[15:10] <Veinor> tony426: press alt-f2 and type in gconf-editor then hit enter
[15:10] <tony426> Lartza_: a temp workaround that i do is make a new text file and type: xrandr -s 1680x1050
[15:10] <Veinor> on the right, navigate to apps->nautilus->desktop
[15:10] <Veinor> and uncheck volumes_visible
[15:10] <tony426> except use your own resolution
[15:11] <Lartza_> tony426: I put it where and what?
[15:11] <djungelmums> jerto, i have a 9800GT and the 177 didnt work too well
[15:12] <Lartza_> tony426: Please explain more
[15:12] <tony426> Lartza_: sometimes my res. gets messed up and just click on that and it will revert to normal. make a text file, type in: xrandr -s (screen widthxscreen height)
[15:12] <tony426> also use the optional -r command for frequency, i think
[15:12] <Lartza_> no thats totally not it...
[15:12] <Lartza_> *sigh*
[15:13] <Lartza_> the screen is messed up in the game, then i return and its normal
[15:13] <Lartza_> and ts not resolution problem
[15:13] <tony426> oh, sorry. idk a fix
[15:14] <jerto> djungelmums, you can find the drivers on the nvidia website
[15:15] <djungelmums> jerto, yes but what dependencies etc do i need?
[15:15] <Lartza_> The games are totally layable, just the display is so messed its not playable
[15:16] <jerto> djungelmums, there is an utility taht assists you when you install the drivers
[15:16] <scientes> can someone paste their sources.list?
[15:17] <jerto> djungelmums, try and find the drivers page that corresponds to your graphic card on hte nvidia website
[15:17] <jerto> djungelmums, installation instructions should be displayed on the page
[15:18] <[[n00b]]> hum ... are pipes binary? (i'm trying to do something like: dd if=/dev/sdc | gzip -fc9 >> test.gz)
[15:18] <jerto> djungelmums, Otherwise, through Synaptic, you can install the v180
[15:19] <snek> scientes: http://paste.ubuntu.com/128793/
[15:19] <djungelmums> jerto, oh where can i find that?
[15:19] <jerto> djungelmums, just launch synaptic and type nvidia in the search field

[15:30] <snek> jcapinc: symlinks?
[15:30] <jerto> jcapinc you should create symlinks
[15:30] <jcapinc> thank you
[15:30] <snek> jcapinc: if symlinks don't work you can also mount them
[15:30] <d35i9n> in gnome is there another browser comparable to firefox?
[15:31] <jerto> jcapinc take a look at man symlink
[15:31] <snek> d35i9n: you don't want to just use firefox?
[15:32] <d35i9n> snek: right
[15:33] <jerto> d35i9n, Opera would be ok ?
[15:33] <m1r> d35i9n: Galeon web browser
[15:34] <snek> d35i9n: if your pc lacks the power to run firefox check out Kazehakase, although it lacks a few features you might be accustomed to from Firefox
[15:36] <d35i9n> snek: no thats not the case
[15:37] <webby> is it possible to install just pgsql mod for apache or do you have to install the entire db?

[15:39] <panesar_sandeep> shadoweaver, soundcard specs??
[15:39] <shadoweaver> Hold on while I look it up.
[15:39] <mostafa> how can i install this package from the shell gnash-0.8.5.tar.gz
[15:40] <__8472> hi, how can i find out if my network card is working in 1GB or 100MB mode?
[15:41] <DiJitalWench> i'm looking for a good windohs emulator for a few of the more modern games that require DirectX9+ & the .NET Framework. recommendations?
[15:42] <TommyT> one way to get info on your network connection is to open a terminal and type the command ifconfig
[15:42] <panesar_sandeep> dijitalwench, sory but u won't be able to run high end games on linux for now
[15:43] <panesar_sandeep> dijitalwench, an emulator for running windows apps and lower cap games is wine
[15:44] <m1r> DiJitalWench: http://www.transgaming.com/
[15:44] <mostafa> how can i install this package from the shell gnash-0.8.5.tar.gz
[15:44] <noobienoob> Hi, I am currently running ubuntu 8.10, is there any way that I can play an mp3 file from the terminal?
[15:45] <jrib> noobienoob: mplayer would be one way
[15:45] <shadoweaver> I am sorry it will take just another minute.  I am new to linux.  I have never had to look up what kind it is before.
[15:45] <noobienoob> jrib: so whats the command? mplayer /dir/file.mp3 ?
[15:45] <jrib> noobienoob: sure
[15:46] <noobienoob> jrib: cool, I'll try that
[15:46] <mostafa> hello every body
[15:46] <mostafa> how can i install this package from the shell gnash-0.8.5.tar.gz
[15:46] <panesar_sandeep> mlr, will this cedega be able to run games like nfs on a med-config pc
[15:47] <jrib> mostafa: gnash is in the repositories.  Install gnash using an APT front-end like Synaptic, Add/Remove Programs, or apt-get
[15:47] <snek> panesar_sandeep: performance is generally a bit lower using cedega/wine
[15:48] <shadoweaver> Ok I have it I think.  It is Crystal sound onboard sound.
[15:48] <shadoweaver> It is on the motherboard
[15:49] <m1r> shadoweaver: type in terminal : lspci
[15:49] <shadoweaver> ok one sec
[15:49] <Guest12197> hej
[15:50] <BayHakim> WOHOO thats a long userlist ;) hello all together...
[15:51] <Las1> how else besides CD can I install Ubuntu?
[15:51] <myeggo> hello, someone know where the networkmanager saves the wifi profiles?
[15:51] <BayHakim> howto: figure out the ubuntu version?
[15:51] <jrib> !version | BayHakim
[15:51] <shadoweaver> ok here it is.   Avance Logic Inc. ALS4000 Audio Chipset
[15:51] <BayHakim> jrib: ubottu thx
[15:51] <Las1> have downloaded both the normal and alternate disks, and burned at the lowest speed on several drives, and used several different install drives and it ALWAYS crashes on install
[15:51] <jrib> Las1: did you check the md5sum?
[15:51] <dayo> Las1: network installation
[15:52] <Las1> jrib: yes, and the cd-check on the boot image itself, and the memory test, all of those are fine
[15:52] <Las1> it crahes while trying to do the software installs
[15:52] <testi> when I run games such as ioquake3 or scummvm the mousepointer keeps displayed and that's annoying. How can make it go away? I have an EeePC
[15:53] <jrib> Las1: tried a different version?
[15:53] <mostafa> Configure with --with-plugindir= to set the directory that "make
[15:53] <mostafa> install" will install the plugin in. By default it will be installed
[15:53] <mostafa> in the user's .mozilla/plugins directory, even if you install using
[15:53] <mostafa> sudo.
[15:53] <FloodBot2> mostafa: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:53] <mostafa> what does that mean
[15:54] <jrib> mostafa: so I take it you just ignored what I told you?
[15:54] <Las1> jrib: no, I don;t consider an old version an acceptable solution
[15:54] <jrib> Las1: well it might give you some information as to what the cause is for one.  Also, you can then upgrade from the old version

Using the menu editor GUI, I set up the menus how I wanted them with one user, then copied the applications and desktop-directories folders out of that user's  ~/.local/share folder into everyone else's. But the launchers I made are all showing up under the Other menu and all the launchers I set to be hidden are still there. Does anyone here know anything about this?

[16:04] <cumulus007> panesar_sandeep: I don't know how to do that
[16:04] <ryty> anyone have any ideas?
[16:04] <panesar_sandeep> cumulus007, well this tells u about re-installing grub with the available linux and/or windows installations using ubuntu-live cd,
[16:05] <cumulus007> panesar_sandeep: hmm, but I want to keep the grub from ubuntu and mint synchronised

[16:31] <VaSy> hi
[16:31] <eseven73> the "1" key on my keyboard stopped working, even rebooting doesn't fix it, is there a way to fix without reinstalling?
[16:32] <Las1> eseven73: Are you sure it's not physically broken?
[16:32] <webby> How can i add invalid ssl exceptions to firefox?
[16:32] <webby> the button doesn't work
[16:32] <webby>  cert exception
[16:32] <eseven73> Las`1 well It's a fairly new keyboard, I guess i'd have to test using a live cd to see if it's physical or not
[16:33] <gypsymauro> I've installed ubuntu 8.10 but I can't c floppies why?

[16:34] <tanto_> i'm not a ubuntu or apt guy, how do i remove mirrors.cat.pdx.edu from apt and add in something else?
[16:34] <oCean_> gypsymauro: "sudo modprobe floppy" first. Then you'll probably have a /dev/fd0 device
[16:35] <espana> Hello all !
[16:36] <Lartza_> espana: Hi
[16:36] <gypsymauro> tanx oCean_ ..why disabled by default?

[16:49] <animenoyume> thnx
[16:49] <shambat> are there any syslog benchmarks available? I'm looking for an estimate of how much data can be stored per second..
[16:49] <travisthepirate> hey all i need some help with my ubuntu box
[16:49] <Lartza_> !ask > travisthepirate
[16:49] <n2diy> something horrible happened to one of my computers. The GDM user gdm does not exisist, sshd does not exsist,  dns does not exsist, ntp does not exsist, and on and on. I tried the grub recovery options to fix broken packages and the X server, with no luck. Then I tried to use the root shell, but that doesn't work, because now there is no passwd entry for root! Is there any hope for this box?
[16:50] <geofem> i'm asking directly : need i to remove thenvidea driver and what package i need to install to have a full working live ?
[16:50] <arvind_khadri> !root | n2diy
[16:50] <BayHakim> n2diy: liveDistri look ath partitons
[16:50] <travisthepirate> recently purchased dynex usb wireless adapter for my acer desktop with ubuntu 8.10, after running ndiswrapper, it installed the driver and detected the usb but would not connect to the internet, did some troubleshooting, restarted and now my computer hangs on starting bluetooth or stopping bluetooth, so i can neither start or shut down my computer
[16:51] <n2diy> arvind_khadri: so how do I use the root shell?
[16:51] <Lartza_> I have one concern about the root thing, what about recovery mode?
[16:51] <arvind_khadri> n2diy, use sudo ,
[16:51] <animenoyume> isn't C-MEDIA supported by alsa?
[16:51] <arvind_khadri> n2diy, sudo -i
[16:51] <BayHakim> howto: update nm-applet to 0.7.0?
[16:51] <Pici> Lartza_: What about it?
[16:51] <oCean_> n2diy: booting into recovery mode will give you a root shell
[16:52] <animenoyume> but this is too strange-why can I hear the after-boot sound
[16:52] <Lartza_> !alsa | animenoyume
[16:52] <Lartza_> :S
[16:52] <animenoyume> ............
[16:52] <n2diy> arvind_khadri: if you read my message you would know I can't, since root doesn't have a passwd entry.
[16:52] <BayHakim> animenoyume: alsaconf ...
[16:52] <Lartza_> Pici: YOu might need root to rescue system
[16:52] <oCean_> n2diy: the box seems really messed up. Any idea how come?
[16:52] <n2diy> oCean_: no it won't, I tried that already.
[16:52] <Lartza_> !sudo | n2diy
[16:52] <BayHakim> oCean_: hack?!
[16:53] <Pici> Lartza_: You don't need to provide any passwords to get to recovery mode
[16:53] <arvind_khadri> n2diy, there is nothing known as root, the first user who has the permissions to change stuffs, and ya when you login to recovery mode you are a super user
[16:53] <oCean_> Lartza_: constantly sending those factiods is *not* really helpful
[16:53] <n2diy> oCean_: old hard drive is probably going south on me?
[16:53] <Lartza_> Pici: And root priviligies?
[16:53] <Pici> Lartza_: You login as root.
[16:53] <Pici> Lartza_: You already have them
[16:53] <Lartza_> oCean_: Sorry I'm on lazy mood :) I'll volume it down
[16:53] <oCean_> n2diy: well, not by randomly removing accounts. Might be external causes (hacked?)
[16:54] <BayHakim> rude root :P
[16:54] <austin> I'm having some trouble in Wine, but no one is in there IRC! can some one help me here? my problem is both guild wars and halo won't show any game menus, but they launch/ install just fine
[16:54] <putri> pls help me i got error               /sn9c102_core.c:3302: error: ‘struct video_device’ has no member named ‘hardware’
[16:54] <geofem> any clue ?
[16:54] <arvind_khadri> austin, check the wine site for faq's, and i guess you need to have msttcorefonts
[16:55] <austin> arvind_khadri: msttcor efonts???
[16:55] <oCean_> n2diy: if those accounts really are missing, well.. then the solution can be far, far away
[16:55] <arvind_khadri> austin, ya, its a metapackage which has all the fonts present in MS
[16:55] <arvind_khadri> !info msttcorefonts > austin
[16:56] <travisthepirate> anyone have any ideas on what to do with my booting?
[16:56] <austin> arvind_khadri is there a command to install this?
[16:56] <BayHakim> culd it be that botfolk is attendant?
[16:56] <arvind_khadri> austin, ya, sudo aptitude install msttcorefonts
[16:56] <n2diy> oCean_: that is always possible. I have chkrootkit installed on it, but can't get to the logs to see them.  Can't I use an install disk to recover the root account?
[16:57] <austin> arvind_khadri: oh ok, how come sudo apt-get wont' work?
[16:57] <arvind_khadri> austin, it will :) aptitude is a front end for apt-get :)
[16:57] <austin> arvind_khadri, oh ok.  i jus installed the fonts, and it still won't show up
[16:57] <oCean_> n2diy: by default the root account is locked. If the root account itself is removed/lost - then its a huge problem
[16:57] <arvind_khadri> austin, just a sec
[16:58] <BayHakim> oCean_: edit disk from another OS
[16:58] <oCean_> BayHakim: n2diy yes, that is an option.
[16:59] <BayHakim> hope not crypted ;)
[16:59] <arvind_khadri> austin, do this sudo fc-cache -fv
[16:59] <lakitu> hey - got a problem:
[16:59] <n2diy> oCean_: yes, indeed. Everything is backed up on it, so I can use it as a test box now, if needed, but I would rather try and rescue it?
[16:59] <webby> is there something like Jing for linux?
[16:59] <webby> a screencap program
[16:59] <kervel> hi, since upgrading to jaunty my system is unusable during a copy / disk IO operation (20 seconds to start 'bash'). in intrepid everything was fine. anybody else having the same problem ?
[16:59] <oCean_> n2diy: however you might want to consider (trying to) recovering your precious data, and re-install anyway
[16:59] <slashzul> anyway to mount an nfs volume and have a non root user rwx at the mountpoint?
[16:59] <BayHakim> there is no social problem ever solved by tech!
[16:59] <arvind_khadri> austin, which version of wine are you using?
[17:00] <oCean_> n2diy: backups are nice :)
[17:00] <n2diy> oCean_: yes, indeed. Everything is backed up on it, so I can use it as a test box now, if needed, but I would rather try and rescue it?
[17:00] <travisthepirate> webby: application>accesories>take screenshot
[17:00] <austin> arvind_khadri lol halfway there, i can see my typing cursor, but where there should be text, its just orange
[17:00] <kervel> slashzul: see the "umask" mount option
[17:00] <BayHakim> oCean_: backups are or girls :P
[17:00] <lakitu> i was running Win, & i backedup using Cobian - now, i'm trying to revert to that old disk image (Cobian's), *in ubuntu*, but i CANNOT decompress the .7z.001 .7z.002 .7z.003 etc files... i tried changing their names to .7z, cat'ing them, etc - help?
[17:00] <webby> travisthepirate: a wee more fancy?
[17:00] <Wicked> !printer
[17:00] <arvind_khadri> austin, aah :) which version of wine?
[17:00] <lakitu> Ubuntu/archive manager says, Unable to recognize archive format, or something
[17:00] <austin> arvind_khadri, eh, just re ran it, no more orange.  and i dont' know, the one in the repositories?
[17:01] <oCean_> n2diy: well, a try cannot hurt. Boot live cd and mount the ubuntu installed disk, then try to recover from there. But no guarantees.
[17:01] <lakitu> also (i'm using a live cd), i can't get on the net, for some reason
[17:01] <austin> how do i look at my version
[17:01] <arvind_khadri> austin, wine --version
[17:01] <arvind_khadri> austin, so is it working fine now?
[17:01] <oCean_> BayHakim: backups might be. Restores are for real men though
[17:01] <austin> ah found it, arvind_khadri, 1.0.1
[17:01] <noobienoob> I just made a custom launcher that plays the sound of instantrimshot.com whenever clicked: "mplayer /dir/to/file.mp3" - is there a way that I can make this happen through the click of a button?
[17:01] <Fish-Face> Hello, all, it appears my fonts are not installed correctly - many of them appear identical
[17:01] <lakitu> can someone help? i've got no OS until i restore, like i said
[17:01] <Fish-Face> I tried updating the fontconfig cache, but there is no change
[17:01] <benzss> ok this flashy text near the bottom of the screen
[17:02] <austin> arvind_khadri, and no its not working fine, i stil don't see text but i can now see my blinking cursor
[17:02] <benzss> tha flashes when you get a message, or a webpage refreshes
[17:02] <arvind_khadri> austin, to be bit on a bleeding edge you can use the latest ones from their site...
[17:02] <benzss> how can i purge its existence from my life
[17:02] <Fish-Face> If anyone has any font-related ideas, I'd be grateful.
[17:02] <lakitu> i need to decompress .7z.00# files in ubuntu
[17:02] <austin> arvind_khadri but i thought it worked with wine 1.0
[17:03] <austin> arvind_khadri oh i see it, it requries 1.1.16...i only have 1.0.1
[17:03] <austin> >(
[17:03] <arvind_khadri> austin, just a sec
[17:03] <lakitu> how can you see it without eyes? =)
[17:04] <arvind_khadri> austin, http://winehq.org/download/deb here you go :)
[17:04] <lakitu> hewp! -- hewp!
[17:04]  * lakitu lays on the ground & moans, until a dog comes by
[17:05] <n2diy> oCean, the boot disk has a recuse broken system option, I'm trying that now.
[17:05] <shambat> are there any syslog-ng benchmarks available? I'm looking for an estimate of how much data can be stored per second..
[17:06] <lakitu> can anyone help me?  i just need to decompress some 7z files in ubuntu, made by Cobian Backup
[17:06] <austin> i can't find my software soruces

[17:15] <lakitu> files
[17:15] <anon> fosco__: thank you.
[17:15] <crdlb> anon: the package name is network-manager-gnome, the binary is nm-applet
[17:15] <plaszczyca_> isn't the archive splitted?
[17:15] <lakitu> plaszczyca_: yes
[17:15] <crdlb> which is just a frontend to network-manager, which runs as a system init script
[17:15] <arvind_khadri> Dillizar, sure :)
[17:16] <Dillizar> arvind_khadri, 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.
[17:16] <plaszczyca_> You should start with a file with *.7zip I think
[17:16] <lakitu> plaszczyca_: they're split - i could cat them, but that didn't work with Archive Manager - maybe with peazip...
[17:16] <lakitu> hmm
[17:16] <Fish-Face> hmm
[17:16] <arvind_khadri> Dillizar, in the terminal run gksu nvidia-xconfig
[17:16] <lakitu> plaszczyca_: i guess i could try that
[17:16] <plaszczyca_> I am not sure if it can open an archive from the middle of the splited archive
[17:16] <anon> crdlb: thank you.
[17:17] <lakitu> plaszczyca_: mm. ok, i will try catting & peaziping
[17:17] <Fish-Face> does anyone know why Ubuntu has all of these fonts for foreign scripts - I thought the default Sans fault had most common Unicode codepoints filled?
[17:17] <plaszczyca_> I have to run. Sorry. I am sure someone else can help.
[17:17] <Dillizar> arvind_khadri, i did
[17:17] <plaszczyca_> See you
[17:17] <lakitu> np, thanks plaszczyca_
[17:17] <lakitu> brb
[17:17] <arvind_khadri> Dillizar, ok then restart X and then check with settings

[17:21] <benzss> hello, what's this text notify thing at the bottom of the screen whenever a new message is received/webpage refreshes/program wants your attention ?
[17:21] <malikyoda> anyone here have an eeepc?
[17:21] <n2diy> ok, I'm running in rescue mode from the install cd, and now it wants to know which partition to use as /, of course, I can't find my install notes, so I don't know which partition to use? If I could look at them with gparted, I would be ok.
[17:21] <benzss> it's flashing on the taskbar anyway, but the program's name appears at the bottom too on top of everything
[17:21] <LynuxDevil> is there any way to make the Ubuntu 7.10 LiveCD "to ram"?
[17:21] <Dillizar> arvind_khadri, same status and same error from nvidia settings
[17:21] <LynuxDevil> I want it to load into RAM so that I can remove the disk
[17:21] <LynuxDevil> I have 2GB of RAM so it will be fine
[17:22] <arvind_khadri> Dillizar, you installed the restricted drivers right?
[17:22] <LynuxDevil> can't I just mount a tmpfs on, say, /new_toram_root and then copy all of the root filesystems files to it?
[17:22] <Dillizar> arvind_khadri, maybe lets try your way! the whole procedure
[17:22] <LynuxDevil> then go ahead and use pivot_root to go there?
[17:23] <benste> Hi folks, my sisters broke their ubuntu machine, they're not able to use APT without errors now, for me it seems a bit like a conflict between Xulrunner and FF, because lots of FF3 packages are listed as not configureable, could someone help me to solve this issue?, maybe it's similar to:
[17:23] <benste> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xulrunner-1.9/+bug/201938
[17:23] <LynuxDevil> or are you people not good enough to know what I mean?
[17:23] <arvind_khadri> Dillizar, which card are you using?
[17:23] <LynuxDevil> I would need to exec a new init...
[17:24] <n2diy> LynuxDevil:  just boot the CD!
[17:24] <Dillizar> arvind_khadri, nvidia fx 5200
[17:24] <travisthepirate> devil, seems like only a few are answering questions and tied up
[17:24] <LynuxDevil> n2diy: I have no other DVD drive
[17:24] <LynuxDevil> n2diy: I want to copy a DVD to the HDD
[17:24] <LynuxDevil> n2diy: I don't have the Ubuntu LiveCD burned onto a CD, unfortunatly
[17:24] <LynuxDevil> ...
[17:25]  * Dillizar shows LynuxDevil lynuxAngel
[17:25] <n2diy> LynuxDevil:  ok, sorry, not sure how you would do that.
[17:25] <Dreamglider> How can i mount a *.dd image i made with testdisk ?
[17:26] <arvind_khadri> Dillizar, use the Hardware Drivers to install the driver and restart the comp
[17:26] <Dillizar> ok arvind_khadri stand by
[17:28] <LynuxDevil> what is the CLI program to administer services under Ubuntu?
[17:29] <LynuxDevil> I mean to turn them off so that they don't start at boot
[17:30] <Dillizar> arvind_khadri, no change
[17:30] <arvind_khadri> Dillizar, just check if they are in use?
[17:30] <fuzeboxsoftware> what do I need in ubuntu to copy my dvd disc to another dvd disc?
[17:31] <benzss> hello, http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/8641/screenshotxco.png <- how can i get rid of this notification at the bottom? it comes up for all programs, not just kmess
[17:31] <Dillizar> arvind_khadri, yes it is
[17:31] <travisthepirate> fuzebox: dvdrip and then braser burner
[17:31] <travisthepirate> *brasero burner
[17:32] <arvind_khadri> Dillizar, hmm just a sec
[17:32] <LynuxDevil> travisthepirate: not if it's a data disc
[17:32] <LynuxDevil> travisthepirate: then you can just use brasero
[17:32] <Slart> fuzeboxsoftware: also check out k9copy
[17:33] <n8tuserf> LynuxDevil-> two things.. you have to create a new initrd to do what you need. 2nd, if you like you expand the livecd iso on a partition and and create an entry in your current menu.lst to boot the expanded iso as if it was a livecd freeing your cdrom i believe
[17:33] <fuzeboxsoftware> ty travisthepirate & Slart
[17:35] <Dillizar> arvind_khadri, are you still with me
[17:36] <lh_> hey guys

[17:40] <Brad777> Hello, I am currently moving all of my important files onto another hard drive and planning on reinstalling ubuntu... Is there any advantage to using the 64 bit version instead of the 32 bit version? I have a 64 bit processor.
[17:41] <Tronix87> i've got something that will make you laugh people
[17:41] <Tronix87> where the hell can i find a floppy disk these days ?

[17:43] <arvind_khadri> Dillizar, sudo xrandr
[17:43] <Tronix87> i'm gunna need one for create a booter or reinstall a new bios
[17:44] <hosk> php-config from the repos installs some like, php files in the share/php directory, do i have to compile php by hand to get phpize and/or php-config

[17:52] <benste> Hi folks, my sisters broke their ubuntu machine, they're not able to use APT without errors now, for me it seems a bit like a conflict between Xulrunner and FF, because lots of FF3 packages are listed as not configureable, could someone help me to solve this issue?
[17:52] <axisys> s/only/already/
[17:52] <arvind_khadri> axisys, what about build-essential?
[17:52] <axisys> arvind_khadri: did that too
[17:52] <n2diy> oCean, still around? Busy?
[17:53] <fosco__> benste, try sudo aptitude -f install and/or sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a
[17:53] <Dr_willis> benste,  i noticed a xlurunner update yesterday...
[17:53] <Lord_E> I've got a machine on my network running ubuntu with the hostname "munin", but since we reset our router, my windows XP machine won't seem to find the hostname "munin" on the network. I can ping both machines from each other using the IP addresses, and ping the windows machine with its hostname, but the hostname "munin" seems to have disappeared from the network. anyone know what's happened...
[17:53] <Lord_E> ...and how i might fix it?
[17:54] <fyrm> Dr_willis, it doesnt explain how to encrypt system drive.
[17:54] <n8tuser> Lord_E, you look in both your /etc/hosts file and does it have an entry on your dns?
[17:54] <Dr_willis> fyrm,  i would ahve to say check the  truecrypt homepage then.
[17:54] <Dr_willis> fyrm,  you may have to boot a live cd to some how do that.
[17:55] <jackd> hi guys. i have a little question. i have tons of files w\o extention (like .avi\.mp3). is there a tool which can identify the files and rename them with the correct extension? i know i can do it with a little script which uses "file". but maybe there is a ready-to-use solution :)
[17:55] <fyrm> Dr_willis, i did. i keep getting errors in Ubuntu
[17:55] <Lord_E> n8tuser: http://paste.ubuntu.com/128875/
[17:55] <n2diy> something horrible happened to one of my computers. The GDM user gdm does not exisist, sshd does not exsist,  dns does not exsist, ntp does not exsist, and on and on. I tried the grub recovery options to fix broken packages and the X server, with no luck. Then I tried to use the root shell, but that doesn't work, because now there is no passwd entry for root! Is there any hope for this box? Update, I'm now on the box using Busybox,
[17:55] <n2diy> so I have access to the file system.
[17:55] <H3l1c0pt3r> what is a website i can go to, to see custom ubuntu desktops (screenshots) and where i can post mine and get ideas and such for customization?
[17:55] <nagyv> how can I send a file via usb from windows mobile to my laptop? it finds my laptop in the list, but when I select it I always get "unsuccessful". on the other hand dmesg gives no information at all.
[17:56] <Lord_E> ~dns
[17:56] <fosco__> H3l1c0pt3r, gnome-look.org
[17:56] <benste> fosco__: aptitude got the same error like APT ;-) the 2nd is in progress
[17:57] <Dr_willis> n2diy,  boot live cd, chroot in.. or try.. sounds like some /etc/ files got messed up like /etc/passwd or /etc/groups
[17:58] <battlesquid> i have problems with configuring mailfilter - the application timed out while trying to query the configured mailserver. i run mx on my ubuntu 8.04 server. does anyone here know what i should put in the .mailfilterrc file SERVER directive?
[17:58] <n2diy> Dr_willis: that is exactly how I got to Busybox, but now I'm stumped, how do I re-create the root account?
[17:58] <Lord_E> n8tuser - how do i check dns entries?
[17:59] <Dr_willis> n2diy,  good question. Not sure.  if you booted a live cd, you shiould be in a full shell. not just busybox.  you could compare  your /etc/ files with the defaults on another system
[18:00] <n2diy> ok, sounds like a re-install would be simpler, but I'd love to rescue this box, just for the sake of doing it.
[18:01] <Dr_willis> n2diy,  i have to wonder how the stuff got messed up. filesystem check went bad? check lost+found?
[18:02] <n2diy> Dr_willis: yes, that is the goal. I suspect an old tired hard drive? I have chkrootkit installed, and that ran clean.
[18:03] <rasstamann> does any1 have a link to detailed commands for ubuntu terminal?
[18:03] <Dr_willis> rasstamann,  the 'shell'  is documented at dozens if not 1000's of web sites
[18:03] <jackd> rasstamann: http://www.ss64.com/bash/
[18:03] <jackd> one of the 1000 websites
[18:03] <Dr_willis> rasstamann,  tjheres always the man pages also :)
[18:04] <Dr_willis> !terminal
[18:04] <Dr_willis> another :)
[18:04] <rasstamann> well, I just installed it so I don;t know what to look for :) and thanx a lot :)
[18:04] <nagyv> how can I send a file via bluetooth from windows mobile to my laptop? it finds my laptop in the list, but when I select it I always get "unsuccessful". on the other hand dmesg gives no information at all.
[18:04] <Dr_willis> rasstamann,  google for bash tutorials
[18:04] <jackd> nagyv: have you paired your devices?
[18:05] <nagyv> jackd: probably not. How can I do that?
[18:05] <travisthepirate> After recently restarting my computer, on shutdown it hangs at "Stopping Bluetooth" I forced a shutdown, turned my box on, and it then hangs at "Starting Bluetooth"  I am now stuck in an infinite loop of shutting down and starting up.  any suggestions?
[18:05] <leohemanth> Hi unable to configure modem to work on ubuntu, in India, using bsnl dataone connection
[18:06] <jackd> nagyv: its very easy. but i cant tell you exactly how because i use kde. but basicly you should find somewhere in your taskbar on your BT icon a way to pair your devices.
[18:06] <Dillizar> arvind_khadri, any new ideas or can i ask my question again
[18:06] <travisthepirate> do i just need to reinstall ubuntu?

[18:07] <kyledr> anyone know how i can change the owner from one user to another user for all files owned by a certain user in a homedir and its subdirs (including dotfiles) but not for files owned by someone else (such as root)
[18:07] <Dr_willis> travisthepirate,  boot rescue mode and remove the bluetoothe service perhaps..
[18:07] <Dr_willis> kyledr,  with creative use of the 'find' command is one way
[18:07] <fuzeboxsoftware> how do i put the chatzilla in the firefox tabs, so i just have one window open?
[18:08] <nibsa1242b> I need help, I have no sound. I had sound until yesterday, everything seems like its configured properly. I can't restart right now (transcoding a dv video, will take ~4more hours). Please help.
[18:08] <Dr_willis> fuzeboxsoftware,  the chatzilla page suggests to NOT do that. it can cause problems
[18:08] <fuzeboxsoftware> :/
[18:08] <Dr_willis> fuzeboxsoftware,  read the chatzilla faq/docs - it mentions that
[18:09] <fuzeboxsoftware> Didn't know that it did, actually I have just started recently using it, have always used mirc
[18:09] <travisthepirate> you can get xchat, a gui program that is just like mirc
[18:09] <Dr_willis> fuzeboxsoftware,  take mirc.. and drag it to the trash.. and never look back :)
[18:09] <kyledr> Dr_willis: i tried "find . -user register|xargs chown regtest" but it tells me "getting attributes of 'Custum': no such file or directory", i think it has some relative path problem
[18:10] <fuzeboxsoftware> lol @ Dr_willis
[18:10] <Dr_willis> kyledr,  or could be spaces in filenames issue.
[18:10] <fuzeboxsoftware> Nothing wrong with mirc :P
[18:10] <nagyv> jackd: ok, I've paired them, I checked and can send files from the laptop to the phone, but not the other way. Do you have any ideas which logs might help me? I even added the phone as trusted.
[18:10] <nibsa1242b> I think a program crash may have killed my sound. How do I get it back without restarting.
[18:10] <fuzeboxsoftware> xchat is my alternative, at least before I found chatzilla :D
[18:10] <travisthepirate> chatzilla is nice but i don't see the point of slowing down firefox anymore than you have to if you have a standalone irc client...
[18:11] <Dr_willis> I perfer xchat to chatzilla
[18:11]  * smotchkkiss creates a petition to rename ubuntu to unbuntu
[18:11] <jackd> nagyv: hmm. maybe you have configured somewhere that your pc should deny incoming files. but basicly if the devices are paried it should be possible to send files easily in both ways. it works here also with windows mobile 6.
[18:11] <bigrigger> fuzeboxsoftware: open/use two instances of firefox, problem solved.
[18:11] <n2diy> Dr_willis: found a clue, /etc/group has changed, and the time jives with the problem. And the permissions changed frow 600, to 644.
[18:11]  * arvind_khadri thrashes the petition !!!!
[18:11] <Dr_willis> n2diy,  thats weird. :) but it does sound like a possible root cause.

[18:13] <smotchkkiss> arvind_khadri: nooooes
[18:13] <nagyv> jackd:  I see 4 accessible services, two of them are running: audio and input. the other two are stopped: network, serial. Could this be a problem?
[18:13] <smotchkkiss> arvind_khadri: what about unbuntun?
[18:13] <jackd> nagyv: yeah maybe. i am not sure about it because it works here out of the box. but you can try enabling them :)
[18:14] <SkyNetMaster> hi, it seems nuts but I cant find spell configuration option in Kile, where is it?

[18:24] <wistol> Hi, I just installed ubuntu 8.1 on my 2nd HDD (IDE), i had windows installed on the 1st HDD (SATA). I can boot fine into ubuntu but when I set the SATA drive with windows as the primary is says "DISK BOOT FAILURE"
[18:25] <bigrigger> root__: in root user and 'as' root user could be construed as two differents things..?
[18:25] <jestinjoy> I want to change it in the live cd .i mean customiation........I want to change the default.........
[18:25] <nibsa1242b> wistol: are you setting the windows drive as primary in the BIOS or in grub?
[18:25] <wistol> BIOS
[18:25] <nibsa1242b> wistol: you can try disconnecting the 2nd drive and seeing if it'll boot then
[18:25] <mefiX> does any1 know how to configure the behaviour of metacity as composite-manager? i'd like to disable some effects (alt+tab with previews)??
[18:25] <Dillizar> ive just  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart
[18:26] <nibsa1242b> wistol: also, during your Ubuntu install, where did you install Grub?
[18:26] <yakodzu> hello people. how can I call action from action not using redirect?
[18:26] <Dr_willis> Dillizar,  change ? to be k or g for kdm or gdm
[18:26] <Dr_willis> Dillizar,   using ? camn cause issues :)
[18:26] <wistol> i don't recall ever seeing it ask me where to install it
[18:26] <nibsa1242b> wistol: by default it likes to install on the primary (boot) hd; so that could be the source of your issues
[18:26] <yakodzu> actions are both inside one controller
[18:26] <malikyoda> I'm formatting an sdhc card for my home directory and swap space, should it be primary or logical?
[18:26] <Dr_willis> malakhi,  either.. i always use primary if i can
[18:26] <Pici> yakodzu: This is the Ubuntu support channel, are you in the right place?
[18:27] <wistol> when i boot from the HDD with ubuntu, i see the grub thing pop up
[18:27] <Dillizar> k Dr_willis nope not can nvidia i installed the drivers without the X and now i cant get it to work so i am trying to restart Xorg
[18:27] <yakodzu> oops ^) sorry
[18:27] <malikyoda> ok, both the swap and /home can be primary
[18:27] <malikyoda> ?
[18:27] <Dr_willis> Dillizar,  restarting gdm,  will cause X to quit/restart - correct..
[18:27] <nibsa1242b> wistol: ok, well maybe grub is installed on the 2nd drive... but normally it likes to install on the boot device unless you tell it differently.
[18:27] <wistol> i can also access the grub menu and i can select which ubuntu to boot, but windows isnt an option
[18:27] <Dr_willis> malikyoda,  yes.
[18:27] <Zero_Burn> Hi all, someone here knows how to fix skype on ubuntu, i got it installed, but i cant make it to work, it says that its a problem with audio playback, but the music players works and everything.
[18:28] <Dr_willis> malikyoda,  4 primaries per device is the normal limit
[18:28] <wistol> ok if i install it on the HDD with windows will i be able to dual boot windows/ubuntu?
[18:28] <nibsa1242b> wistol: easy way to fix is remove secondary ( ubuntu drive ), and use windows recovery console to do a " fix /mbr " that should get your windows booting
[18:28] <malikyoda> so I'd be ok to leave them all primary
[18:28] <malikyoda> ok
[18:28] <muita> how do I format an mp3 player with a vfat filesystem? help please
[18:29] <Dillizar> Dr_willis, is my xorg restarted now like it was from the beginning
[18:29] <arvind_khadri> muita, plug it in... rhythmbox will pick it up
[18:29] <nibsa1242b> wistol: I think the installer can take care of dual booting, but I'm not sure. I've never trusted it and always done everything by hand.
[18:29] <Dr_willis> wistol,  it should set it all up.
[18:29] <wistol> ok
[18:29] <arvind_khadri> wistol, did you install ubuntu after you installed windows?
[18:30] <wistol> yes i installed ubuntu after
[18:30] <muita> arvind_khadri: I want to format(delete) the contents, aparently they are refusing claiming that the file system is read-only
[18:30] <nibsa1242b> wistol: my preferred method of things is: install XP on HD1 with no other HDs connected. install ubuntu on HD2 with no other HDs connected. use BIOS to select which HD to boot from.

[18:36] <fuzeboxsoftware> doktoreas: I remember have probs with that on the windows version
[18:36] <jigspan> sudo poff cammand not working
[18:36] <muita> minche: to save you alot of trouble just uninstall it and reinstall it
[18:36] <nat2610> which file is the best to add folder in my $PATH ? .zshrc (I'm using zsh) ?
[18:37] <minche> i tried reinstalling it
[18:37] <BrandonB> Another question, My syst em wil only boot up if I start up recovery mode then press rsume...
[18:37] <shey> Is there an Ubuntu/Macbook specific channel?
[18:37] <arvind_khadri> muita, did you google?

[18:38] <shey> Viata: Intrepid won't boot after an install. No other OS's, just a flashing folder with a '?' in it.
[18:39] <jigspan> any answer for my quistion
[18:40] <shey> Viata: google doesn't come up with much, cept something about a bug in the Intrepid installer.
[18:40] <bigrigger> nat2610: use ~/.zshrc add 'export $PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:'  should work, adjust path as desired.
[18:40] <voix> alor?
[18:40] <muita> minche: try to type atleast the first letter of a user and press Tab key for the full user name to appear then type your message, this helps one to know that your are being addressed to, anyway just remove flash completely and delete .flash in your user folder then install afresh
[18:40] <fosco__> !flash | jiggles

[18:49] <BrandonB> but it will hang forcing me t hard reboot
[18:49] <muita> minche: there seems to be a bug within firefox, could just update it
[18:49] <shey> what system you got vs. which Distro?
[18:49] <BrandonB> If I go in through the recovry console and press Resume, it boots no problem
[18:49] <BrandonB> Ubuntu 8.10
[18:49] <BrandonB> Dell Optiplex GX260
[18:49] <shey> and your processor?
[18:49] <mikebeecham> is there any artwork available to view for Jaunty Jackalope?
[18:50] <quibbler> minche: what does  about:plugins in firefox say for shockware flash
[18:50] <mikebeecham> since it's being released next month
[18:50] <BrandonB> 1.8 ghz
[18:50] <minche> muita it isnt working with konqueror either
[18:50] <BrandonB> and 1.3 GB of Ram
[18:50] <Viata> shey: i'm still looking at the wiki for installing it on a macbook on the help.ubuntu site
[18:50] <shey> you did only get the 32b one right?
[18:50] <shey> Viata: ty so much
[18:50] <BrandonB> I gtg
[18:50] <shey> OK
[18:50] <minche> quibbler, it says it is enabled
[18:51] <Dillizar> can any body help me with my xorg?
[18:51] <Viata> shey: are you able to boot into the 8.10 live CD still (by holding the option key when booting, but I think you already know)
[18:51] <shey> Viata: yup, Im in it now.
[18:51] <quibbler> minche: where does it say the plugin is ..which folder
[18:51] <Viata> shey: and the installer, when it gets to the partition editor, doesn't see anything?
[18:52] <shey> Viata: Im also able to chroot to the install(ed) directory
[18:52] <shey> Viata: lemme check gParted.
[18:52] <shey> sec..
[18:52] <Dillizar> here is the http://paste.ubuntu.com/128892/ of my xorg if any body can help will be awesome
[18:52] <Viata> ok
[18:52] <minche> quibbler, ehh, it doesnt say anything about the folder
[18:52] <Viata> dillizar: what is your issue?
[18:52] <minche> there is only MIME type, sufixes and enabled field
[18:53] <Dillizar> Viata, nvidia drivers
[18:53] <shey> BTW: when its not so buggy, Ubuntu runs SO MUCH BETTER than OS X on a macbook. I highly recommend it.
[18:53] <danbhfive> Dillizar: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[18:53] <Dillizar> danbhfive, 8.04
[18:53] <quibbler> minche: look here: /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so  ....do you have this file?
[18:53] <Chubakur> 8.04 its very old :-)
[18:54] <Dillizar> Chubakur, there isnt other ubuntu that is new and not buggy :P
[18:54] <danbhfive> Dillizar: well, I know that you arent using nvidia drivers, but I don't really know how to fix the problem.  Did you use the restricted drivers manager to install your drivers?
[18:54] <Dillizar> danbhfive, yes they are in-use
[18:55] <minche> quibbler, yes
[18:55] <danbhfive> Dillizar: well, the manager screwed up, cause they arent according to that xorg.  You could try changing "nv" to "nvidia"   and see what happens.
[18:55] <shey> Dillizar: Intrepid is nice, and not 'so' buggy
[18:55] <Viata> dillizar: you said you're using the restricted drivers for nvidia.  can you go into terminal and type: nvidia-settings?
[18:56] <Las1> When I try to install I get this: "main-menu[3054]: WARNING **: Configuring 'pkgsel' failed with error code 1" and "main-menu[3054]: WARNING **: Menu item 'pkgsel' failed."
[18:56] <Las1> from both a CD install and a USB stick install
[18:56] <shey> Viata: yes, gParted sees the partitions.
[18:56] <cactusfrog> hi
[18:56] <shey> cactusfrog: wb
[18:56] <cactusfrog> i cant run pidgen
[18:56] <cactusfrog> it just crashes
[18:56] <shey> cactusfrog: kill the other instance thats running.
[18:56] <quibbler> minche: look here: /home/your_name/.mozilla/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so  ....is the same file here?
[18:56] <Dillizar> Viata, 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
[18:56] <zipper> hi . i installed kubuntu by wubi. kubuntu waiting at boot on swap file active  section
[18:57] <Dillizar> Viata, but i have tried that already
[18:57] <cactusfrog> ok
[18:57] <cactusfrog> so xchat and firefox
[18:57] <cactusfrog> just quit them
[18:57] <danbhfive> Dillizar: then try what I said please
[18:57] <cactusfrog> or end the prosses
[18:57] <LordFDisk> Dillizar,  I used envy-qt to find the right one for me.  but make sure that you remove the old ones first
[18:57] <Chubakur> cactusfrog, using qutim
[18:57] <FloodBot2> cactusfrog: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:57] <Chubakur> it nice
[18:57] <zipper> hi . i installed kubuntu by wubi. kubuntu waiting at boot on swap file active  section
[18:57] <Dillizar> LordFDisk, how can i remove them
[18:57] <Dillizar> !Intrepid
[18:57] <minche> quibbler, hmm there is no /plugins/ folder =/
[18:58] <flo_> hi, does anyone know why `expr 20 * 3` returns "expr: syntax error" ? all other operands (*,/,-,$) work perfectly ...
[18:58] <Dillizar> shey, lol 8.10 nope doesnt work for me tooooo much things not working on it dunno why camera, Gnomad2 you name it
[18:58] <cactusfrog> ok when i type ps aux | grep pidgin i get this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/128895/ why do i get this error and how can i fix it?
[18:59] <Viata> shey: I am not really sure then, but I'm searching around online a bit.  It sounds like the installer from the live CD, after seeing the partitions, should be able to repartition them itself
[18:59] <minche> quibbler, but it worked before the update =/
[18:59] <bigrigger> cactusfrog: type kill 10648
[18:59] <shey> Viata: its ok, Ill go back to hardy then
[18:59] <acu> I want to make the mouse pointer BIG - as big as possible for an older person - I use GNOME can anyone tell me how to do it
[18:59] <LordFDisk> you could look through synaptic and remove them that way
[19:00] <Viata> shey: ok.  But according to their site on help.ubuntu.com, 8.10 should work just fine with the macbooks.  Anyway, I'm sorry I couldn't help more.  Best of luck
[19:00] <cactusfrog> thank you its working
[19:00] <cactusfrog> but in the future what should i do to get it working how do i know what to kill?
[19:00] <Las1> When I try to install I get this: "main-menu[3054]: WARNING **: Configuring 'pkgsel' failed with error code 1" and "main-menu[3054]: WARNING **: Menu item 'pkgsel' failed." and it fails
[19:00] <tj83> Hi all... seeking a Grub multiboot expert for advice. Multi booting XP,Vista,Fedora10,Ubuntu8.04 Order of install the same as listed. Grub list XP and Vista as one entry loading windows bootloader then can choose xp or vista.... how can i manually add these two OS's and get rid of the windows bootloader?
[19:00] <shey> 8.04 LTS is Hardy Heron?
[19:00] <tj83> shey, yes
[19:00] <red-lichtie> How do I execute a script when a USB stick with a known UUID, after it is mounted (postmount?) and another one before it is unmounted (preunmount?) ?
[19:01] <quibbler> minche: make the folder and copy libflashplayer.so to that folder....also delete the file  localstore.rdf  it is in /home/your_name/.mozilla/firefox/your_profile.default
[19:01] <hitman_beginner> haw can i change the language in ubuntu?
[19:01] <red-lichtie> shey: Yes
[19:02] <tony426> i want to paste something but when it's closed out, it's not in the clipboard anymore. is there so setting in gnome to fix this?
[19:02] <cactusfrog> how did you know what to kill
[19:02] <hitman_beginner> plz help
[19:02] <Viata> cactusfrog: in terminal, the command "ps aux | grep pidgeon" will show you if it's running or not
[19:02] <red-lichtie> tony426: Some applications clear their entries in the clipboard before exiting
[19:02] <danbhfive> tj83: I suspect not.  Whats happening is that grub is just passing off to the windows bootloader.  Unless you have the windows bootloader installed twice, you can't have two entries.  And windows always installs a single bootloader, and to the mbr.  Windows is a bit unflexible about that
[19:03] <Viata> (check spelling of pidgeon, it may be "pidgin")
[19:03] <juannicolas> Hi, I've been googling but I can't find a good tutorial for how to enable or use my external monitor as primary monitor in ubuntu 8.10 with ATI FX5200

[19:03] <tw1tch> hitman_beginner: try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1091118
[19:03] <tony426> red-lichtie: is this some kind of security feature?
[19:04] <red-lichtie> tony426: I think it's just the way the clipboard works
[19:05] <red-lichtie> hitman_beginner: What language do you need ?
[19:05] <minche> quibbler, still not working
[19:05] <minche> anywho gotta go now
[19:05] <_VIM_> tony426: you can always install klipper, it remembers things you copy (if you get klipper go into the preferences and change it from 8 entries to 100 or up to 2000 if you want)
[19:05] <quibbler> minche: sorry man

[19:09] <DJones> !ultimate | Zeldarock
[19:09] <MrHeavy> it's ubuntu ricer edition basically
[19:10] <_VIM_> Zeldarock: no
[19:10] <bigrigger> Viata: thats probably a paid support thing
[19:10] <MrHeavy> if your computer has a case window with blue leds inside it you may benefit from ubuntu ultimate edition
[19:10] <Viata> bigrigger: you may be right, I've never heard of it though
[19:10] <sebsebseb> Zeldarock: maybe with the experimental OpenGL suppourt
[19:11] <Zeldarock> the 3d effcts will not enable under VitrualBox, I've tried. Is it supposed to?

[19:19] <sentix> Hello, anyone else have weird Assert error messages with FireFox 3.x?  I just did a adept package update today and now FF3 is acting kind of odd
[19:19] <bigrigger> pisse: man cc or 'cc inputfile.c' no quotes
[19:19] <Wyall> I dont have AOL :P
[19:19] <zagibu> why are the ubuntu packagers too slow to update pidgin, before icq-support breaks? it happens at least twice every year!
[19:21] <gaurav__> hi
[19:21] <tritium> zagibu: they are updated every six months, with each release, unless there are interim security updates.
[19:22] <sentix> Whoa, going to start checking the ubuntu bug board, FF3 has become completely unstable/unusable since I updated today
[19:23] <bigrigger> pisse: name the source filename.c then cc filename.c then look for an 'a.out' file, thats the compiled program
[19:23] <Dillizar> http://paste.ubuntu.com/128902/ can any body look at my Xorg now and tell me why its not working the nvidia drivers
[19:23] <Neffi> Simple question: What's the max Ubuntu should take to boot?
[19:23] <Neffi> time*
[19:24] <tj83> Hi all... seeking a Grub multiboot expert for advice. Multi booting XP,Vista,Fedora10,Ubuntu8.04 Order of install the same as listed. Grub list XP and Vista as one entry loading windows bootloader then can choose xp or vista.... how can i manually add these two OS's and get rid of the windows bootloader?
[19:24] <bigrigger> Neffi: a few minutes tops
[19:24] <tritium> Neffi: depends on your hardware
[19:24] <pisse> bigrigger: "gmpxx.h: No such file or directory"
[19:24] <tj83> Dillizar, you have multiple devices for video card
[19:25] <Neffi> tritium: 30 min and still on the init screen. The comp is old, but I'm assuming it's a problem and abnormal. I don't know though.
[19:25] <Neffi> Old as in, from around 2002
[19:25] <DontTaseMeBro> lart
[19:25] <tritium> Neffi: yes, sounds like a problem.
[19:25] <Neffi> I try to verify the CD and it does the same thing. Just hangs on a screen that looks the same.
[19:25] <stickboy> for some reason Geany can compile a program but then cannot run it, because it fails to open up a terminal window. Anyone have any ideas why? It works fine if I use another IDE such as code::blocks to compile and run first.
[19:26] <Neffi> Burned the thing three times. Final time at only 4x speed.  :(
[19:26] <brandonban6> Neffi, check out Xubuntu, I run it on a Dell 8400, it has a light windows manager (XFCE) may have better luck :)
[19:26] <Dillizar> tj83, meaning what?
[19:26] <bigrigger> pisse: you'll have to find that, seems ubuntu doesn't have it. I would have to look
[19:27] <tj83> Dillizar, meaning your xorg.conf has been all chopped up my guess envy look for older backups and see if you can restore to it and then manually get your drivers up.
[19:27] <sentix> Neffi: What step is it hanging on in init?
[19:27] <pisse> bigrigger: ok, I've tried to download it and get a catalog with loads of files in it.. you know where I'm supposed to put that? just anywhere and then include and link to it?
[19:28] <Dillizar> tj83, can you help me :( pls i am on my edge of survival ! if i dont do this i will die pls help
[19:28] <crdlb> Dillizar: there's nothing really wrong with your xorg.conf
[19:28] <bigrigger> pisse: i'm looking, forget where those are
[19:28] <ElDLo> Hey I have a question about Ndiswrapper and I was hoping someone could help.
[19:28] <tw1tch> Dillizar: do you use the X server configurator tool in repos for nvidia cards?
[19:28] <pisse> bigrigger: ok
[19:29] <Dillizar> tw1tch, since i dont know what is that i will say NO! :)
[19:29] <Neffi> sentix: Unsure. I can't even remember what it said now. I'm gonna try booting with different parameters now and if it fails again I'll write it down.
[19:29] <tj83> Dillizar, tw1tch suggest a solution... but it likely got you where you are now... you need to look at old xorg.conf files see what you have and revert to maybe the original when you installed.
[19:29] <bigrigger> pisse: it would need to be in your path, in /usr/include/ usually
[19:30] <tj83> Dillizar, one other solution is to boot the live cd and then take a snipit from that xorg.conf and apply it to yours.
[19:30] <Dillizar> tj83, where can i find the old and GOOD xorg
[19:30] <javierfa> hi
[19:30] <bigrigger> pisse: forget the path, look in /usr/include/  your source code tells it that.
[19:30] <tj83> Dillizar, if present... it will be along with your current file. /etc/X11/
[19:31] <crdlb> Dillizar: how did you install the nvidia driver?
[19:31] <Dillizar> aham tj83 that is not bad but a lot of work but i can copy all the xorg
[19:31] <trask1> any recommendations on whats fun to mess around with, new and at the same time teach me a bit more ubuntu?
[19:31] <kallepersson> Hi! How would I make sure that my home server running Ubuntu keeps the same internal IP even during server/router reboots?
[19:31] <Dillizar> crdlb, by sudo sh
[19:31] <Petengy> hi to all
[19:31] <crdlb> Dillizar: the nvidia installer? :/
[19:31] <Dillizar> yes :D crdlb
[19:31] <Dillizar> no good??
[19:31] <tj83> Dillizar, yes... you can try the complete xord fromt he live cd... but backup your current file first :)!
[19:32]  * tj83 cant type today
[19:32] <Petengy> I looking for a way to open my old pst (outlook mail) archive in Ubuntu, is there an app to do it ?
[19:32] <crdlb> Dillizar: not a great idea imho, but now that you've done it, we can try to make it work
[19:32] <zagibu> tritium: well, no, they certainly update pidgin inbetween releases, because ICQ support broke last summer as well, and they updated it before 8.10
[19:32] <pisse> bigrigger: yeah there are loads of stuff in there.. no gmp though. So the whole catalog "gmp-4.2.4" goes there then?
[19:32] <zagibu> i'm just wondering why they can't update it BEFORE ICQ support breaks
[19:32] <Dillizar> crdlb, yeah pls before my girlfriend killed me :D
[19:33] <bigrigger> pisse: I can't guarentee it will, but most likely it will.
[19:33] <ElDLo> I believe I have succesfully installed Ndiswrapper. I also have seemingly installed my wireless card. When I do "ndiswrapper -l" the driver and the card both show up as installed and enabled, yet when I do "iwlist scan" it says no connection is found, and I can't seem to establish one. Any tips on what I might be doing wrong?
[19:33] <bigrigger> pisse: my boxes  don't have gmpxx.h either
[19:34] <proq> does anyone have a recent howto for booting OS X Leopard?  I added root=hd(0,0) makeactive chainloader +1 but OS X won't boot from my grub menu.lst file
[19:34] <pisse> bigrigger: but you can use the lib?
[19:34] <crdlb> Dillizar: pastebin the output of dmesg | grep -i nvidia
[19:35] <bigrigger> pisse: I haven't tried, i doubt it since it doesn't exist
[19:35] <Petengy> how to open pst mail archive in Ubuntu.... someone knows ?
[19:35] <shey> proq: you got Intrepid booting?
[19:35] <shey> O.o
[19:35] <pisse> bigrigger: I'll try to put the catalog in /usr/include and hope for the best?
[19:35] <tj83> Hi all... seeking a Grub multiboot expert for advice. Multi booting XP,Vista,Fedora10,Ubuntu8.04 Order of install the same as listed. Grub list XP and Vista as one entry loading windows bootloader then can choose xp or vista.... how can i manually add these two OS's and get rid of the windows bootloader?
[19:35] <proq> shey, yes, it boots on a brand new iMac
[19:35] <bigrigger> pisse: have you tried the compile?
[19:36] <Dillizar> crdlb, http://paste.ubuntu.com/128913/
[19:36] <pisse> bigrigger: the compile?
[19:36] <proq> shey: I just don't want to hold down option to boot into OS X
[19:36] <Daremonai> I have ventrilo server running on ubuntu 8.10, I can connect to it within my local IP thus from 192.168.1.x, but when people from outside try to login, they can't do so, however, telnetting to port 3784 (ventrilo, works fine) and ventrilo server shows that someone connected but it wasn't successful (telnet)
[19:36] <Dillizar> crdlb, i will be right back pls wait
[19:36] <benste> firefox woun't start with error "Could not find compatible GRE between version ... " even after dpkg-reconfigure -a
[19:36] <Dr_willis> tj83,   save the menu.lst that each linux os generates somewhere.. and pick ONE os to handle the grub loader.. manually edit that os's menu.lst and add the proper entries to the end of the menu.lst
[19:37] <bigrigger> pisse: just install the package which supplies gmpxx.h and you'll be fine. yes did it compile without error 1 ? doubtful
[19:37] <sled> r
[19:37] <Dr_willis> tj83,  sdaveing each os's menu.lst lets you look in them to see what they use for boot options and so forth. updating kernels on the other os's may have issues however.
[19:37] <proq> what does the savedefault option do in grub's menu.lst file?
[19:37] <tj83> Dr_willis, thanks for your reply... yes.. i understand this... I have already handled multi booting linux OS , My real issue lies in the stinkin windows bootloader and i have no idea how to get the info to import it into grub manually.
[19:37] <Dr_willis> proq,   you can make the default be 'saved default' and then it rembers what one ya last used.
[19:38] <Ibrahim> Hi,
[19:38] <Dr_willis> tj83,  theres exmaples in the menu.lst for windows on various hard drives..  shouldent be too hard to do. You just need to change the hd## info
[19:38] <Ibrahim> Can you help me on
[19:38] <pisse> bigrigger: I already installed it through synaptic. it doesn't compile at all because of the error "error: gmpxx.h: No such file or directory"
[19:39] <Dillizar> crdlb, i am back :)
[19:39] <Nanner-Puss> Hi everyone
[19:39] <tj83> Dr_willis, ok, i will dig deeper.... i can boot all the os's ok... it just bothers me to use one bootloader to load another bootloader and the fact that its MS bootloader makes it even worse :P
[19:39] <mikem562> Hey, can anyone tel me if there's any advantaged to having the /boot as its own partition or can I just do a swap/root layout?
[19:39] <Ibrahim> how to connect my Ubuntu to other PC that running Fedora, and to use it via: "Remote Desktop"???
[19:39] <bigrigger> Daremonai: you're on a subnet, configure your router to forward the port to that box
[19:39] <mattva01> I'm planning to setup a web kiosk, will be new gnome kiosk features be in in time for jaunty or should i use kubuntu?
[19:40] <Dr_willis> tj83,  in some ways thats safer.. :) but it all depends on what you do. You could uise the pc's bios menus to pick what HD to boot. if you have each os on its own hd.
[19:40] <bigrigger> pisse: hrm, google for that header file
[19:40] <Daremonai> bigrigger, I did, just like i did for port 80, 21, etc. they all work except 3784
[19:40] <Ibrahim> how to connect my Ubuntu to other PC that running Fedora, and to use it via: "Remote Desktop"???
[19:40] <tj83> Dr_willis, ya, all on same HDD
[19:40] <pisse> bigrigger: I downloaded the tarball so I have the file.. but not thanks to synaptic
[19:40] <crdlb> Dillizar: ok, what version of the nvidia driver did you install?
[19:40] <Dr_willis> mattva01,  ive seen several premade live-web-browser koisk cds out there. dependign on what you want done.. it may allready been done for you
[19:41] <Dillizar> crdlb, 173
[19:41] <bigrigger> Daremonai: any iptables blocking it? sudo tail -f /var/log/auth.log and watch for any errors
[19:41] <crdlb> Dillizar: on hardy or intrepid?
[19:41] <Ibrahim> how to connect my Ubuntu to other PC that running Fedora, and to use it via: "Remote Desktop"???
[19:41] <mikem562> Hey, can anyone tel me if there's any advantaged to having the /boot as its own partition or can I just do a swap/root layout?
[19:41] <Dillizar> crdlb, 8.04 :)
[19:41] <mattva01> i'd still like to know whether kde Kiosk is still the best way to go because i heard that gnome kiosk features may be implemented soon
[19:42] <bigrigger> pisse: untar the ./configure, make sudo make install
[19:42] <DPic_> is there a way to upgrade from 32-bit to 64-bit ubuntu without a fresh install?
[19:42] <bigrigger> pisse: s/the/then
[19:42] <Eber> guys, I'm really new to linux and I've installed lighttpd as a web server on my VPS using aptitude, but now I need to upgrade it to the latest release... how can I do that? any hints and tips?
[19:42] <lakitu> hey - i restored using Cobian Backup my Win XP to a new partition, now i can't boot to it - can someone help me configure GRUB?
[19:42] <bigrigger> DPic_: no
[19:42] <tw1tch> mikem562: Iv read somewhere that creating a boot partition can help prevent fragmentation...
[19:42] <DPic_> bigrigger: ok  thanks
[19:42] <Dillizar> crdlb, NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.12-pkg1 to be exact :P
[19:42] <mikem562> twltch: thanks = )
[19:42] <gunknown> pidgin announces "client version is too old" for icq. Are there any workarounds yet?
[19:42] <Dr_willis> tw1tch,  i dont see how. :) fragmentation isent much of an issue anyway
[19:43] <pisse> bigrigger: How do I untar? "s/the/then"?
[19:43] <Dr_willis> !info unp | pisse
[19:43] <bigrigger> pisse: tar -xvzf file.tar.gz  if thats the gzipped tarball
[19:43] <Pici> gunknown: The developers are working on it, please be patient.
[19:44] <gunknown> ok
[19:44] <tw1tch> Dr_willis: I know thats what i thought when i read it too.. but it does mount the boot partition read only dosent it that could help prevent corruption??
[19:44] <lakitu> brb, trying something
[19:44] <benste> so here who knows what to do if so aported install of updates during install of xulrunner?
[19:44] <benste> FF3 isn't running anymore
[19:45] <nastvik> привет
[19:45] <bigrigger> !ru > nastvik
[19:45] <_dan_> hello, pidgin doesnt let me connect to the icq servers anymore, complains about client being to old, is this already known?
[19:45] <pisse> bigrigger: Yeah I did that long ago and now I have a dir called "gmp-4.2.4" with 13 subdirs and lots of other files.
[19:45] <Dr_willis> tw1tch,  i doubt if its going to help much.. and then whenever ya get a kernel update. you have to rember to remount it readwrite.. makes it a hassle.
[19:45] <gunknown> is there a pidgin irc chan or where do i get infos from?
[19:46] <gunknown> _dan_ yes
[19:46] <bigrigger> pisse: cd into that dir and read the readme and install files
[19:47] <crdlb> Dillizar: ok, we need to get ubuntu to stop loading the normal nvidia modules, open /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common and set DISABLED_MODULES="nv nvidia_legacy nvidia nvidia_new"
[19:47] <crdlb> that's very redundant, but it won't hurt
[19:47] <Errietta> hey
[19:47] <mezy> how do i uninstall a program or package?
[19:47] <benste> someone here who can help me to get FF back?
[19:47] <pisse> bigrigger: You mean I should do this?: http://gmplib.org/manual/Installing-GMP.html#Installing-GMP
[19:47] <Errietta> what do i do with a printer i just changed the ink thingies
[19:48] <Errietta> i mean
[19:48] <Errietta> shouldnt i uh do something
[19:48] <Dr_willis> Print a test page?
[19:48] <tw1tch> _dan_:  icq bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/340075
[19:48] <erle64-> did pidgin stop working?
[19:48] <Errietta> Dr_willis, and if it gets fucked up?
[19:48] <Pici> Errietta: That language is not needed here.
[19:48] <Errietta> s0rry
[19:48] <Errietta> shouldnt i do something bout it
[19:48] <tamido> can somebody explain to me why so many  important technological breakthroughs came from a military?
[19:48] <zagibu> erle64-: yeah
[19:49] <bigrigger> pisse: yes, thats the typical installation process, it pays to read the README etc first, like this 'less README'
[19:49] <Pici> !ot | tamido
[19:49] <Dillizar> crdlb, done
[19:49] <Dillizar> now what
[19:49] <zagibu> it's because the ubuntu version of pidgin is too old
[19:49] <Dr_willis> Errietta,  you changed ink..  what are you expecging to need to do?
[19:49] <Errietta> uh
[19:49] <Errietta> idk
[19:49] <Crazyguy> tamido, they've got money
[19:49] <Errietta> dad said something
[19:49] <zagibu> 2.5.2, while there is already 2.5.5 out
[19:49] <Errietta> ok
[19:49] <Dr_willis> Errietta,  its not like its going to explode..  well  unless its a lexmark.. :P
[19:49] <Errietta> ill print test page
[19:49] <bigrigger> pisse: q to quit the 'less' program, spacebar advances pages
[19:49] <Errietta> if it explodes
[19:49] <crdlb> Dillizar: now reboot and we'll see what happens :)
[19:49] <Errietta> its YOUR fault
[19:49] <FloodBot2> Errietta: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:49] <Dr_willis> Errietta,  demand a refund.
[19:50] <crdlb> Dillizar: hopefully, we'll end up with the right nvidia kernel module
[19:50] <erle64-> zagibu, s..., i was online a few hours ago
[19:50]  * Errietta cancels the test page
[19:50] <Errietta> too scary
[19:50] <Dillizar> crdlb, stand by :D
[19:50] <Daremonai> bigrigger, I just checked if my server is 'up' from ventrilo.com, it says it's fine, but i still can't connect to it
[19:50] <tjingboem> where can i find the repo of the PPC (ibook g3)?
[19:50] <Errietta> i dont wanna die yet
[19:50] <Errietta> sids
[19:50] <Errietta> it didnt seem to print
[19:50] <gunknown> _dan_ : pidgin 2.5.5 should fix the icq error
[19:50] <benste> who can help me to get Firefox back ? it doesn't start after last updates which were aported by my sister ;-(
[19:50] <bigrigger> zagibu: upgrading programs beyond the repository version isn't wise unless you keep them separate due to depedancy issues.
[19:51] <Dr_willis> Errietta,  some 'printers' have some extra tuneing tools.. but ive not messed with them much.
[19:51] <Errietta> Shouldnt i "Clean Print headers"
[19:51] <zagibu> bigrigger: yeah, but broken software is not useful, so...
[19:51] <Dr_willis> Errietta,  are they dirty? i only do that if its sat for a long time
[19:51] <Errietta> how am i sposed to know
[19:51] <bigrigger> Daremonai: does netstat -tunap from terminal show that port as listening/open?
[19:52] <Dr_willis> Errietta,  how are we supposed to know. :) is the printing messed up = try clean heads...
[19:52] <Errietta> but it wont print at all
[19:52] <Errietta> and im scared itll explode
[19:52] <Dr_willis> Errietta,  check the cups logs. is the thing online? plugged in? on?
[19:52] <Errietta> and then ill die
[19:52] <Daremonai> bigrigger, yes
[19:52] <Errietta> do u want me to die?
[19:52] <Errietta> idk
[19:52] <Pici> Errietta: Stop
[19:52] <FloodBot2> Errietta: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:52] <Errietta> illl ask my dad when he's back
[19:52] <Errietta> O_o
[19:52] <Dr_willis> Errietta,   we dont know either. good luck
[19:53] <bigrigger> Daremonai: what error do they get?
[19:53] <Dr_willis> I imagine it went offline when you opend the lid.
[19:53] <Daremonai> bigrigger: "MSG: Contacting server." and stays there
[19:53] <benste> no one knows about how to fix an aborted update?
[19:54] <Daremonai> bigrigger, can we go to PM and I'll tell you the info, maybe you can understand better that way?
[19:54] <bigrigger> Daremonai: your logs should show the error, i'm not familiar with ventrilo
[19:54] <Daremonai> bigrigger, the tail -f etc. stuff you told me didn't show anything
[19:55] <Daremonai> bigrigger, what i don't understand is that, I can login to it locally, I can telnet to it from outside, even ventrilo.com can know the status of my server, yet for some weird reason, outside people can't get in
[19:56] <bigrigger> Daremonai: tail -f reads in real time, watch it as you invoke the error
[19:56] <Dillizar> crdlb, nope still 800*600 my girlfriend will really kill me HELP :)
[19:56] <Daremonai> bigrigger, the error is not being outputted on server side, it's like messages aren't even reaching it
[19:57] <tony426> can someone tell me why in Top, python is using 100% cpu but in gnome system monitor it's not?
[19:57] <crdlb> Dillizar: pastebin 'dmesg | grep -i nvidia' again
[19:57] <bigrigger> Daremonai: you don't seem to be getting an error, just no connection, is ventrilo configured right?
[19:57] <mezy1> how to uninstall a program or package?
[19:57] <Daremonai> bigrigger, it worked out of nowhere just now, i didn't even change anything
[19:57] <Pici> mezy1: apt-get remove packagename
[19:58] <mezy1> ok
[19:58] <bigrigger> Daremonai: well. sweet. probably a constipated port ;p
[19:58] <Dreamglider> how do i delete a dir full with files in terminal ?
[19:59] <Daremonai> bigrigger, hehe :)
[19:59] <bigrigger> Dreamglider: rm -rf dir/
[19:59] <Dillizar> crdlb, nothing happen !!!!!
[19:59] <Dr_willis> Dreamglider, with CAREFULL use of the wildcards command line rm command. :)
[19:59] <crdlb> Dillizar: no output?
[19:59] <Dillizar> nope crdlb
[20:00] <Superpig_> Hi folks. I've got a problem where my keyboard and mouse don't seem to be working at the XCFE login screen. I can switch to other TTYs and use the keyboard fine, so I'm thinking it's an X server problem. Anyone know how to start debugging it?
[20:00] <benste> Dr_willis can you help me with my FF woun't start problem on which I try to get an answer on this IRC for 2h now?
[20:00] <crdlb> Dillizar: ok, how about 'sudo modprobe nvidia', then try it again?
[20:00] <Dr_willis> benste,  ive no idea on the fix. other then to say check the forums.
[20:01] <bigrigger> Dreamglider: safer to mv dir/  ~/safe-place  before you whack the whole directory, just to be safe. make the safe-dir first
[20:01] <Dr_willis> benste,  and perhaps try opera till it gets fixed.
[20:01] <lampard_hut> hi
[20:01] <benste> Dr_willis
[20:01] <lampard_hut> fuck u
[20:01] <benste> nice idea
[20:01] <brandonban6> Superpig_, i've heard of having a keyboard entry in your xorg file, you may check that out. I don't know much more then that, you can also check with they people in #xubuntu for help.
[20:02] <Superpig_> brandonban6: yeah, I looked at the manpage for xorg.conf but it suggested that the system should be using 'reasonable defaults' if there's no entry for keyboard and mouse. cheers, I'll try #xubuntu then
[20:02] <bigrigger> tony426: GUI apps can lie, the terminal rarely does.
[20:03] <Dillizar> crdlb, FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia
[20:03] <red-lichtie> Superpig_: I think that xorg.conf values were moved to hal
[20:03] <tony426> bigrigger: top was lying. had to end my screenlet app. it didn't recognize all cores of my quad
[20:04] <Dillizar> crdlb, i really hate fatal error cuz it reminds me of windows :P
[20:04] <Superpig_> red-lichtie: ah, ok. how/where do I start exploring that?
[20:04] <mikevankuik> how can I login to a gnome session from ssh? (I need to login so I can use VNC)
[20:04] <bigrigger> benste: in a terminal try ps aux |grep fire*  any multiple instances running?
[20:05] <crdlb> Dillizar: well, it looks like something is broken with the driver you installed from nvidia.com
[20:05] <red-lichtie> Superpig_: /etc/hal/fdi/policy/
[20:05] <Dr_willis> mikevankuik,  you can install/run a stand alone vncserver. and  do the same thing basicailly.. only you will not be shareing the current/seen local desktop on the remote box.
[20:06] <crdlb> Dillizar: I'd suggest uninstalling it (sudo sh NVIDIA-whatever --uninstall)
[20:06] <Dillizar> crdlb, lets make it simple ok! how can i remove them
[20:06] <bigrigger> tony426: i've been wrong before, sorry.
[20:06] <crdlb> in the long run, it'll be easier to get the stock driver working
[20:06] <Dillizar> lol
[20:06] <Dillizar> k on my way
[20:06] <red-lichtie> Superpig_: I have a file called /etc/hal/fdi/policy/shmconfig.fdi in there to sort out my input.x11_options.SHMConfig option
[20:07] <mikevankuik> Dr_willis: I know :) but I like the way I got it setup right now :) all I need to do is login and I know its posible... did it once before but can't remember how
[20:07] <benste> bigrigger, thanks for taking the time to help me :-) trying your command I just get the search task back - there is no open FF when trying to start FF I get an errorCouldn't find compatible GRE I think it's realted to the case that my sister abborted updates during install - cause now apt woun't remove or install Xulrunner, FF ....
[20:07] <Dr_willis> mikevankuik,  i set up gnome to auto login via gdm. and set it to autostart that vncservice ... other then that.. no idea
[20:07] <shey> Would anyone know what the linux alternative to Microsoft Money would be?
[20:07] <bigrigger> mikevankuik: the easiest method is enable remote desktop on the remote. or ssh -l login hostname
[20:08] <tony426> bigrigger: maybe you were right. someone told me pushing 1 in Top to account for all my cores and it works
[20:08] <Dillizar> crdlb, its done they are removed now should i reboot :)
[20:08] <bigrigger> benste: and firefox won't start at all?
[20:08] <benste> yes

[20:08] <crdlb> Dillizar: first, undo the changes to /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
[20:09] <bigrigger> tony426: thanks for that tip!
[20:09] <crdlb> Dillizar: make the DISABLED_MODULES line say DISABLED_MODULES=""
[20:09] <benste> starting in a shell I get, "Could not find compatible GRE ..."
[20:09] <mikevankuik> Dr_willis: its the way I thought I'd had set it up but I guess it didn't restart vnc and/or loged in.
[20:09] <Dillizar> benste, go to system monitor and end all firefox processing
[20:09] <bigrigger> benste: you could try removing/installing it

[20:16] <shey> Katangawise: whats the issue?

[20:16] <lakitu> see above, re GRUB
[20:16] <red-lichtie> benste: try `sudo xulrunner-1.9 --register-global`
[20:17] <Katangawise> sayhellowhy, iwconfig wlan0 up - tuerns on wireless
[20:17] <djbender> this is bugging me to no end, i wish i could make the colors when i ssh other servers brighter, since I use a black background terminal
[20:17] <i> hm
[20:17] <Superpig_> hmm. Does anyone know where evdev would output log messages?
[20:17] <shey> Katangawise: did you try their support forums? Just because something is BASED on Ubuntu, doesn't mean its an Ubuntu issue. That would be like me asking about Debian in here because Ubuntu is based on it.
[20:17] <benste> red-lichtie:  sudo: xulrunner-1.9: command not found
[20:17] <Dillizar> crdlb, ok my card its still in-use but still not working :) should i remove legacy?

[20:19] <bigrigger> djbender: won't help much though on brightness
[20:19] <Dillizar> yes crdlb :) is this the problem :(
[20:19] <djbender> bigrigger, the problem is when I ssh into other non-ubuntu servers, this is more a general linux problem :-/
[20:19] <blip-> thanks erUSUL, thanks jtaji   (for your telling me about /etc/hdparm.conf about 5 hours ago)
[20:19]  * red-lichtie slaps forehead, benste's browser isn't working :(
[20:19] <Katangawise> sayhellowhy, write "iwconfig" - watch on output.. may be it's not wlan0, but ath0 or something else..
[20:19] <shey> Iceman_B^ssh: why not just grab your menu.list and save it, add it back after the upgrade. although I personally do not recommend it unless you have special repo entries.
[20:19] <djbender> bigrigger, their default colors are quite dark
[20:19] <lakitu> grub question: win xp is on sdb5... i set the menu.lst to hd(1,4) - it says device doesn't exist - what do i do? gparted says it's on sdb5
[20:19] <bigrigger> djbender: yes thats true, you can set it a any bash prompt also
[20:19] <erUSUL> blip-: no problem
[20:20] <benste> red-lichtie: I already looked up those bug reports, but didn't find anything interesting
[20:20] <lakitu> could it be a bios prob?

[20:21] <Iceman_B^ssh> shey: the probnlem is, if I reboot with a new and ossibly incorrect bootloader, I wont be able to ghet into my OS

[20:21] <Flare183> Myx0x3: That's offtopic
[20:21] <bigrigger> lakitu: it should be hd0,0 or something similiar depending on the drive/partition
[20:21] <Iceman_B^ssh> or can I ?
[20:22] <lakitu> bigrigger: but it's on sdb5
[20:22] <FMK> Flare183: you are not alone ;)

[20:22] <Dacvak> I have an Nvidia 8800GTS. I just installed Ubuntu 8.10 and it didn't automatically install any of the video drivers. I'm running in low-graphics mode. How can I configure my graphics card properly?
[20:22] <nahetss> I've been hearing some good things about Ubuntu Jaunty, looking forward to that release. Ext4 filesystem will be nice!
[20:22] <Iceman_B^ssh> I could paste my cirrent menu.lst

[20:22] <djbender> bigrigger, i can turn on colors on these centOS servers but the colors are still dark to where its hard to read :-/
[20:23] <crdlb> Dillizar: ok, 'dmesg | grep -i nvidia' again; I'm only really interested in the line that has the version
[20:23] <nahetss> how's the Jaunty gonna be?
[20:24] <bigrigger> lakitu: it might be hd1,5
[20:24] <FMK> Flare183: is there any solution for it?
[20:24] <nahetss> and EXT4
[20:24] <erUSUL> nahetss: ask in #ubuntu+1
[20:24] <lakitu> bigrigger: i tried that

[20:26] <Flare183> ?
[20:26] <crdlb> Dillizar: now we're going to edit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common again, but just put DISABLED_MODULES="nvidia_legacy nvidia"
[20:26] <lakitu> bigrigger: any ideas?
[20:26] <crdlb> Dillizar: the reason being that, by process of elimination, it'll be forced to use nvidia_new
[20:27] <bigrigger> lakitu: is the drive being mounted in /etc/fstab
[20:27] <rdz> hi all. how can i emulate right mouse click on a macbookpro with control click on the touchpad?
[20:28] <lakitu> bigrigger: i don't know - you know i'm talking about the grub bootloader screen, right?  THAT'S where it says cannot find device
[20:28] <Dillizar> crdlb, i dont have legacy
[20:28] <lakitu> when i select Win XP's entry
[20:28] <dennda> With ant: Is the error The <ftp> type doesn't support the "retriesallowed" attribute. related to only ant 1.6 being available? It works on 1.7 but on 1.6 I get that error. Is this simply a versioning thing?
[20:28] <DASPRiD> erUSUL, nevermind found it yet, waiting for next update
[20:28] <crdlb> Dillizar: yes, that's why you're putting it in DISABLED_MODULES; if you look the the dmesg output, you'll see that ubuntu is loading 71.84, which is the -legacy version
[20:29] <Dillizar> crdlb, why should i just install legacy :D or its not for my card
[20:29] <Dillizar> should i reboot now crdlb
[20:29] <bigrigger> lakitu: grub isn't finding the drive/partition, does it exist in /etc/fstab. I think grub needs re-configuring
[20:29] <crdlb> Dillizar: make sure your xorg.conf says Driver "nvidia", then yes
[20:31] <Dillizar> crdlb, pls tell me the path of  xorg.conf
[20:31] <warriorforgod> Dillizar: /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[20:33] <warriorforgod> Iceman_B^ssh: Looks like xp is on the first partition of your 1st hard drive.
[20:33] <IntuitiveNipple> djbender: You could use "dircolors -b FILE" (or -c, depending on shell) to set custom colours. Maybe have it conditionally executed in ~/.bashrc if the SSH_CONNECTION variable is set?
[20:33] <dretchswatter> bagualas it's prolly a compiz bug I have that sometimes too. If you get to the desktop, by making a shortcut in the compiz settings, you can right click the windows in your task bar and in advanced, it'll say fullscreena dnt here you go. just uncheck it

[20:40] <dretchswatter> bagualas: look up ^.^
[20:40] <crdlb> Dillizar: ok, first of all, run 'sudo nvidia-xconfig' and restart X (don't reboot)
[20:40] <reduz> skybound, awesome, thanks!
[20:40] <crdlb> Dillizar: just to make sure it's not that simple

[20:44] <Dacvak> Hey, I've been out of the Ubuntu scene for a while. What's the best way to install Beryl? (If that's still the top-tier pretty-GUI)
[20:44] <sebsebseb> Dacvak: you can find Beryl installation instructions on: http://www.ubuntuguide.org
[20:44] <crdlb> Dillizar: ok, it's very hard to get the actual error from a failed nvidia startup on ubuntu, so you'll have to manually start X with startx and copy the /var/log/Xorg.0.log to your home dir so that it doesn't get overwritten
[20:44] <tgreer> Hi al

[20:45] <mikem562> any help on replacing lilo with grub?? i've tired but for some reason when i reboot, lilostill comes up
[20:45] <benste> red -lichtie: but libxul is 1.8.1.16
[20:45] <tgreer> daft question, how do you hide interfaces with NetworkManager/nm-applet? I have a WWAN card with ttyACM[0-2] and i only want one of them to show.

[20:46] <Dillizar> crdlb, ok pls wait while i copy
[20:46] <swegner> Hi all.  I'm looking for a utility to take automatic incremental backups to a disk.  Should have GUI + CLI for setup and recovery, and have automatic and configurable scheduling.  Any ideas?  Is there a comparison somewhere of the options out there?
[20:47] <erUSUL> !beryl | Dacvak
[20:48] <_VIM_>  swegner sbackup is good for that (once installed you'll see the menu under  System> Administration > Configure backups or something like that)
[20:49] <O__o> how to play rmvb in ubuntu?
[20:49] <O__o> is it w32codecs?
[20:49] <red-lichtie> benste: Just for the hell of it, try creating a new user (testmoz) or something, logon to that user to split the difference between a user dependant error or a general firefox error
[20:50] <swegner> _VIM_: thanks, I'll try that
[20:50] <red-lichtie> Logon to that user and see if firefox starts
[20:50] <benste> nice idea :-)
[20:50] <methods> any reason running xinit would not have glx support ?
[20:50] <Dillizar> crdlb, i have copied the xorg.0.log now what
[20:50] <Nanner-Puss> Ok guys
[20:51] <red-lichtie> Ok Nanner-Puss :)
[20:51] <dretchswatter> okay red-lichtie
[20:51] <Nanner-Puss> I have a question
[20:51] <crdlb> Dillizar: err, you have to stop gdm, run startx, _then_ copy the log
[20:51] <O__o> where is w32codecs?
[20:51] <crdlb> Dillizar: the idea is to get a log of X failing to start with the nvidia driver; not just the VESA failsafe log
[20:51] <O__o> sudo apt-get install w32codecs doesnt work
[20:51] <Nanner-Puss> Will this adapter work with ubuntu?

[20:53] <Dillizar> crdlb, hmm i am going to that just i want to tell you that now i can run compiz
[20:53] <erUSUL> !ppc
[20:53] <tjingboem> thanks
[20:53] <crdlb> Dillizar: then it sounds like the nvidia driver is running
[20:54] <crdlb> Dillizar: pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log to verify
[20:54] <Dillizar> crdlb, yeah but 640*480
[20:54] <pieces> hi all, my firefox has no boarders around it so I cannot minimize it or resize, and it is on top of my panels so I cannot access other options without using alt tab, can someone please explain how to fix this?
[20:54] <crdlb> Dillizar: the nvidia driver seems to be bad at picking a good default resolution, especially on old chips
[20:55] <red-lichtie> pieces: Sounds like your window manager croaked
[20:55] <Dillizar> crdlb, http://paste.ubuntu.com/128940/
[20:55] <benste> red-lichtie - didn't work
[20:55] <pieces> red -lichtie everything else is fine thought...
[20:55] <h4x0r> somebody use partimage before
[20:56] <erUSUL> pieces: maybe is in full screen mode? press F11 (twice if needed)
[20:56] <Flare183> pieces: press alt+ f2 and type in metacity --replace
[20:56] <crdlb> Dillizar: ok, looks good (except for the 640x480 part :)
[20:56] <Flare183> h4x0r: I have
[20:56] <h4x0r> it work

[20:56] <mysticdarkhack> hello all
[20:56] <h4x0r> thanks
[20:56] <Dillizar> crdlb, is it possible to fix it
[20:56] <pieces> erUSUL: lol that was it, i couldn't find that option in view thought... thanks
[20:56] <crdlb> Dillizar: ... why do you have 640x480 modelines in your xorg.conf?
[20:56] <ahmed-araby> hi one of my friends got message saying failed to install grub , Is it enough to just install grub manually
[20:56] <erUSUL> pieces: no problem
[20:57] <Dillizar> crdlb, i dont know tell me what to do and i will do it :)
[20:57] <red-lichtie> benste: Your best bet might be Server: irc.mozilla.org Channel: #firefox then
[20:58] <mikem562> anyone here any good with grub? I've tried grub, root (hda0,0) setup(hda0,0), i add my entry to the menu.lst but when I reboot, it still loads stupid lilo??
[20:58] <crdlb> Dillizar: ok, remove the ModeLine line from Section "Monitor"; and remove the _entire_ SubSection "Display" in Section "Screen"
[20:58] <mysticdarkhack> I have a question if anyone answer this. In kde4, you have a folder directory display on the desktop, is there a way to have the kind of feature in gnome like in kde4?
[20:58] <Flare183> mikem562: Then remove lilo
[20:58] <Dr_willis> mikem562,  try setup hd0  not hd0,0 perhaps
[20:58] <crdlb> Dillizar: that means from SubSection "Display" to EndSubSection (four lines in total)
[20:58] <mikem562> Flare183, how can I remove the lilo? and i'll try the setup hd0 as well
[20:58] <erUSUL> mysticdarkhack: ~/Desktop/ directory is displayed on the Desktop
[20:59] <Dr_willis> mikem562,  or whatever it is called...  hdXXX,0 is the first Parittion omn the hd.. hd0 is the mbr OF the drive.
[20:59] <Flare183> mysticdarkhack: Yes, add a new widget called Folder View, and on the properties of it, put Desktop
[20:59] <benste> red-lichtie: I may do so later on, but I spended more than 6 h on this problem now, I'll reintall the machine tomorrow, thanks for you help
[20:59] <techII> 20 minutes now, firefox is frozen, constant drive activity, overall my machine is very sluggish (fsync issue?)
[20:59] <Dillizar> crdlb, PROGRESS i can open nvidia configuration can we do smt with that
[20:59] <Flare183> mikem562: Use synaptic to remove it
[20:59] <crdlb> Dillizar: just stick with fixing the xorg.conf for now
[20:59] <crdlb> Dillizar: if you don't get a good resolution with those lines removed, then you can play with nvidia-settings
[21:00] <mikem562> thanks guys, hopefully back soon with some good news
[21:00] <mysticdarkhack> erUSUL, what I meant is the plasma desktop type like kde4
[21:00] <red-lichtie> benste: OK, sorry I couldn't help you sort it

[21:00] <perlmonkey> hi, is it possible to have ubuntu installed twice on two separate hdd's on a system and have it so you can select which hdd to boot from?
[21:00] <h4x0r> yes
[21:00] <red-lichtie> perlmonkey: Yes
[21:00] <erUSUL> perlmonkey: just configure grub to boot them
[21:01] <perlmonkey> how would I do that? I installed on my 2nd hdd but i can't seem to boot from it, theres no option on the grub bootloader menu
[21:01] <perlmonkey> ah
[21:01] <erUSUL> perlmonkey: you have to manually configure grub to boot the second installation
[21:01] <perlmonkey> maybe thats where I went wrong, i do install grub on 2nd hdd but I think i need to do something to first hdd install?
[21:01] <perlmonkey> ok
[21:01] <divXjunk> I have ubuntu hardy installed IN winXP (second option from live cd) Can I 'copy' this in winXP install to a partition on my hd, converting to a 'real' instalation so to speak?

[21:03] <rww> divXjunk: Sure. You'll need to use LVPM. Its homepage is at http://lubi.sourceforge.net/lvpm.html . The instructions for transferring to a dedicated partition are about 2/3 of the way down the page.
[21:03] <Dillizar> can you crdlb :)??
[21:04] <perlmonkey> ok here's the problem... grub menu.lst requires the kernel path but I can't access or boot the 2nd hdd to get it, what to do?
[21:04] <divXjunk> rww thx i'm gonna check it out!!
[21:04] <Dr_willis> perlmonkey,  by 'get' you mean to discover it?
[21:04] <erUSUL> perlmonkey: mount the partition of the second hd and take a look
[21:04] <perlmonkey> Dr_willis: yes
[21:04] <jaw> My disks ar slow - I thin its due to libata http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1090841

I need to be able to login to a remote machine should it reboot but it doesn't bring up the eth0 interface until after login. I tried modifying /etc/network/interfaces and adding ifconfig commands to /etc/rc.local all fail.
[21:05] <crdlb> Dillizar: just run: sudo dexconf; sudo nvidia-xconfig
[21:06] <crdlb> Dillizar: the first will give you a default xorg.conf; the second should edit it for nvidia

[21:11] <Dillizar> crdlb, it was already nvidia :/
[21:12] <rww> erUSUL, alanbshepard70: Right, which is what "interface not managed" means...

[21:25] <Las1> is there any way to reinstall a package and all of it's dependencies?
[21:25] <Cronos> /j v#ubuntu+1
[21:25] <erUSUL> !bugs | atari
[21:25] <Tonitoni> erUSL: yes clean install
[21:25] <sinewaav> just apt-get it
[21:25] <crdlb> Las1: "all of its dependencies" would be half the system
[21:25] <erbish> maybeOff: do you have any suggestion for any service/application which can safely store my forum/blog/etc. accounts/passwords?
[21:26] <Las1> crdlb: yes, that's what I want
[21:26] <Las1> crdlb: I have a half-working install that failed and is now rather broken
[21:26] <erUSUL> Tonitoni: what graphic card? how you installed the graphic drivers?
[21:26] <crdlb> Las1: I'm no apt guru :/
[21:26] <Las1> k
[21:26] <Dillizar> lol @ crdlb
[21:27] <Tonitoni> erUSUL I think it's NVIDIA and they were working before. I can also see the Ubuntu symbol and the loading bar before it goes black
[21:27] <crdlb> Dillizar: I guess you should try a reboot :/ if that doesn't work, we have to use that manual startx test I mentioned earlier
[21:27] <PowerMOos> I am getting my ICQ client is too old to connect to ICQ, to upgrade pidgin.  However, I don't have a new pidgin version after sudo apt-get update , do I have to download and compile it myself ?
[21:27] <gladiator> so anyone? my internet is working considerably slower on ubnuntu then on windows. any clues pointers?
[21:28] <Dillizar> yeap crdlb lemme restart
[21:28] <erUSUL> Tonitoni: may you used envyng if that's the case you have to reinstall the drivers... but if you do not get even to safe graphics mode ....
[21:28] <PowerMOos> Eh, that didn't display right for me.  (Client error?)
[21:28] <PowerMOos> I am getting my ICQ client is too old to connect to ICQ, to upgrade pidgin.  However, I don't have a new pidgin version after sudo apt-get update , do I have to download and compile it myself ?
[21:28] <PowerMOos> There we are

[21:28] <Gengiscat> hello everybody
[21:28] <PowerMOos> :-|
[21:28] <rww> PowerMOos: It's a known bug. There's information and a PPA with a fix at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin/+bug/340075
[21:28] <qdii> hello. I would like to be able to open another session of X server but everytime I try (using "startx -- :1" for instance) , my computer freezes with black screen
[21:29] <erUSUL> PowerMOos: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/340075 <<<< enable backports
[21:29] <erUSUL> !backports | PowerMOos
[21:29] <Tonitoni> erUSUL: I haven;t tried a non-graphical reboot because I am lost when I get to command line
[21:29] <rww> erUSUL: Where on that bug does it say that backports fixes anything?
[21:30] <erUSUL> PowerMOos: or get it from wwww.getdeb.net
[21:30] <rickard> I just installed tidy,, but no shortcut was made.. how do I start it?
[21:30] <Danu> Hello I forgot my password in Seahorse (to decode a file, it's a pgp), is it anyway to change it or recovery it?
[21:30] <Master_Of_Insani> hey, i'm getting no volume from my mic. i've fixed skype's settings so it works ok, but i'm just getting no volume from it
[21:30] <erUSUL> rww: backports can contain a new version of pidgin with the isuue resolved
[21:30] <rww> erUSUL: In this case, it doesn't.
[21:31] <erUSUL> rww: yep just checked hence the pointer to getdeb
[21:31] <PowerMOos> erUSUL, isn't backports "hardy-backports" (Unsupported updates) ?
[21:31] <Dillizar> crdlb, ok lets do that
[21:31] <methods> help
[21:31] <Dillizar> what do i need to do crdlb
[21:31] <Master_Of_Insani> anyone know how to fix my mic so it actually picks up. i'm getting no volume from it at all
[21:32] <erUSUL> PowerMOos: get it from here http://www.getdeb.net/app/Pidgin
[21:32] <crdlb> Dillizar: you know, I should just make a little script to do it
[21:32] <Mark_> gladiator, some speedtests might seem slow because flash/java on linux can be quirky in certain situations, like 64 bit.. thats why i suggested a test with something like wget or just a fast download
[21:32] <PowerMOos> erUSUL, That seems to be the only option
[21:32] <nibsa1242b> Master_Of_Insani: check that is enabled in alsamixer (from the commandline)
[21:32] <nibsa1242b> Need help fixing sound. Worked until most recent update and restart.
[21:32] <Dillizar> crdlb, now i cant run "hardware drivers" its crushing
[21:33] <Tonitoni> erUSUL if I reloaded the OS using the desktop from the DVD do you think it might work? Last night it was fine until the restart
[21:33] <rww> PowerMOos: either that or from one of the PPAs from the bug report. 2.5.5 isn't in the main repositories yet.
[21:33] <Mark_> gladiator, theres nothing to really tune like there is on windows, like receive window, etc.
[21:33] <Master_Of_Insani> nibsa1242b, i only have two channels on there. master and capture. both are turned up high
[21:33] <PowerMOos> erUSUL, I would need all 4 debs ?
[21:33] <erUSUL> Tonitoni: you can not boot with a previous kernel (if the update brought a new one)?
[21:33] <JOKER> hello evryone
[21:33] <gladiator> Mark_: let me try and do a direct download..
[21:34] <Tonitoni> erUSUL oh. I'm new to this.
[21:34] <erUSUL> PowerMOos: so it seems   pidgin  (566.2 kB)  ,  pidgin-data  (7.2 MB)  ,  libpurple0  (1.5 MB)  ,  libpurple-bin  (100.2 kB)
[21:34] <nibsa1242b> Master_Of_Insani: move to the right with the arrow key, make sure one isn't hiding. and obvious dumb question --> check to make sure its plugged into correct port
[21:34] <erUSUL> PowerMOos: install first the libs then the others
[21:34] <savid> After replacing linux with Windows at my wife's request (she always griped about wanting Windows back),  she IM'd me w/ this:  http://pastebin.com/m62b708ab
[21:35] <Master_Of_Insani> nibsa1242b, checked both. that's all i seem to get :\
[21:35] <crdlb> Dillizar: don't worry about that now
[21:35] <tk8> what would happen if i installed ubuntu over fedora 10?  would my files get erased?
[21:35] <Danu> Hello I forgot my password in Seahorse (to decode a file, it's a pgp), is it anyway to change it or recovery it?
[21:35] <skyl> I want my terminal, when transparent to see the window right under it rather than clear through to the Desktop... what package do I need to have?
[21:35] <Master_Of_Insani> is there another command line mixer or anything :s
[21:35] <sofi1> Does anyone know to emulate
[21:35] <erUSUL> Tonitoni: well with the data i have i can not see what may be wrong. you can boot into recovery mode and run 'dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg'
[21:35] <crdlb> skyl: are you using a compositing manager?
[21:35] <Sake> Hey can anyone help me with grub?
[21:35] <nibsa1242b> Danu: nope, you just need to remember the password
[21:35] <skyl> crdlb not that I know of
[21:35] <erUSUL> sofi1: emulate what?
[21:35] <crdlb> skyl: using gnome?
[21:36] <skyl> crdlb yes
[21:36] <JOKER> i would attempt to create a virtual machine instead of emulate
[21:36] <crdlb> skyl: what is system > prefs > appearance > visual effects set to?
[21:36] <Sake> I'm currently setting it up to boot win 7 and ubuntu, but I don't know if I've done it right
[21:36] <gladiator> Mark_: a direct download of the kernel from kernel.org is downloading at 14kbps
[21:36] <Tonitoni> erUSUL: DO I do that by ctl/alt f1?
[21:36] <Danu> :( well I guess i lost the file, Thanks anyway nibsa1242b
[21:36] <gladiator> sorry 14 kBps
[21:36] <tuxforce> hi
[21:36] <nibsa1242b> Master_Of_Insani: you can check with the pulse daemon to see if mic is enagled
[21:36] <Sake> So can anyone help me?
[21:36] <erUSUL> Tonitoni: if you can get to a virtual console you can do it from there
[21:37] <Mark_> gladiator, type (at a terminal): ip addr
[21:37] <nibsa1242b> Danu: the point of encryption is that you have to have the password... next time if you are going to forget your password, don't encrypt/ use weaker encryption
[21:37] <erUSUL> Tonitoni: if not choose recovery mode from the grub menu (at boot)
[21:37] <Mark_> look for the number after the word 'mtu'
[21:37] <JOKER> sake have you attempted to try wine?
[21:37] <Sake> yea
[21:37] <Sake> I"m dual booting so i can run my games
[21:37] <Danu> OK
[21:37] <tgm4883_> on a ubuntu mini 9, should 'uname -m' return i686 or some lpia variant?
[21:37] <JOKER> ok... just what is it that you are attempting to do?
[21:37] <Sake> joker: I fixed the bootloader with a tool called super grub disk
[21:38] <Tonitoni> erUSUL What can I expect after I do that? I'm a GUI user unless someone walks me through commands
[21:38] <BrandonB> :s
[21:38] <Sake> JOKER: I'm trying to dual boot win 7 and ubuntu
[21:38] <nibsa1242b> savid lol, thats great... tell her to get Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware... it'll probably remove what ever she has ( tp://www.malwarebytes.org/ )
[21:38] <JOKER> ok... was wondering is all
[21:38] <Sake> JOKER: I can now boot ubuntu again, but there is no option for win 7
[21:38] <Mark_> gladiator, mtu should be 1500 for ethernet connections generally, some dsl that uses pppoe might be 1492
[21:38] <erUSUL> Tonitoni: that will regenerate the Xserver configuration. hopefully with a wroking one. once done reboot and cross your fingers
[21:38] <waylandbill> is there a known issue of mysql server not starting on 8.10 amd64? I rebooted and now it fails to start. I tried purging all databases and apt cache and reinstalling. No luck. /var/log files that have mysql in their name don't offer any indication as they are 0 byte.
[21:38] <rww> tgm4883_: if it's running Ubuntu Mobile, it should return lpia. If not, i686 or amd64.
[21:38] <nibsa1242b> why does Ubuntu constantly have issues with sound?
[21:38] <skyl> crdlb they were set to None then I got Desktop effects could not be enabled
[21:38] <JOKER> so you are on a dual boot?
[21:38] <Sake> joker: I know how to add it, I'm just not sure how to find the (hd0,0) thingy
[21:39] <nibsa1242b> I upgraded with the auto update last night, and now I have no sound.
[21:39] <crdlb> skyl: what video card?
[21:39] <tgm4883_> rww, hmm.  I reinstalled using the dell disk, and i
[21:39] <JOKER> ok...
[21:39] <ubuntiana>  #ubuntu.it
[21:39] <Sake> JOKER:  NRN, they are both there
[21:39] <Tonitoni> erUSUL thanks, I'll try and see what happens
[21:39] <Mark_> nibsa1242b, try restarting pulseaudio
[21:39] <tgm4883_> rww, im getting i686
[21:39] <JOKER> ok
[21:39] <Sake> JOKER: But I can only boot one of them
[21:39] <skyl> crdlb ATI Radeon, not sure which
[21:39] <nibsa1242b> Mark_: the only way I know how to do that is pulseaudio -
[21:39] <crdlb> skyl: lspci | grep -i vga
[21:39] <JOKER> yes... i see that... selection
[21:39] <PowerMOos> erUSUL, I'm guessing guifications and the other plugins will work in 2.5.5 or do I have to get those too ?
[21:39] <nibsa1242b> Mark_: the only way I know how to do that is pulseaudio -k , pulseaudio -D ... I've already done that
[21:39] <gladiator> Mark_: i am on wifi connected to a router. 4: wlan0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 576 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP qlen 1000
[21:40] <skyl> crdlb 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV370 [Sapphire X550 Silent]
[21:40] <b0ne1> hi i have a question. i plugged my usb mp3 player in and want to copy music into it. but i cant find my mp3 player anywhere on my ubuntu.
[21:40] <Sake> joker: :D I just need to add the link to the grub menu so I can boot it
[21:40] <Mark_> nibsa1242b, kill all the pulse audio crap in the terminal with kill, then start it as a regular user with the pulse-session command
[21:40] <erUSUL> PowerMOos: dunno really not a heavy pidgin user myself
[21:40] <PowerMOos> erUSUL, The version in the repos
[21:40] <rww> tgm4883_: I guess the dell installer doesn't use Ubuntu Mobile. It's not that much of a problem; lpia is just iX86 with some settings changed.
[21:40] <PowerMOos> erUSUL, oh
[21:40] <JOKER> yep
[21:40] <nibsa1242b> Mark_: all I get is "W: ltdl-bind-now.c: Failed to find original dlopen loader.
[21:40] <nibsa1242b> "
[21:40] <crdlb> skyl: on intrepid?
[21:40] <Sake> PowerMOos: I use pidgin
[21:40] <skyl> crdlb jaunty
[21:40] <Mark_> nibsa1242b, thats a normal error
[21:40] <crdlb> skyl: you should be asking in #ubuntu+1 then
[21:40] <skyl> doh!
[21:40] <Sake> PowerMOos: What do you need help with?
[21:40] <tgm4883_> rww, ok, thanks for the info
[21:41] <savid> nibsa1242b,  thanks I'll take a look at that one. Though, being a linux guy you know how I hate paying for things ;-)
[21:41] <Mark_> yea gladiator, your mtu is probably the problem
[21:41] <JOKER> i am not too familiar with windows 7.. i was an xp user switched to ubuntu
[21:41] <nibsa1242b> savid: its free as in beer, unless you want the constant monitoring feature
[21:41] <PowerMOos> Sake, erUSUL , I reinstalled them, they work OK with the new one.
[21:41] <erUSUL> gladiator:  mtu 576 <<<< that's a very low mtu value... it should be ~1500
[21:41] <Sake> JOKER: Yea i used vista but killed it
[21:41] <nibsa1242b> Mark_: ok, I tried killall pulseaudio , and then pulse-session ... nothing
[21:41] <rww> skyl: Jaunty doesn't have fglrx right now, so desktop effects won't work
[21:42] <savid> nibsa1242b,  ah
[21:42] <JOKER> i do know that ubuntu plays nicely with xp.. not sure about vista
[21:42] <Mark_> gladiator, wireless speed could be anything (a microwave, a cordless phone, etc) but that mtu is definately too low
[21:42] <b0ne1> if i type in tail -n0 -f /var/log/messages it says that it recognises the mp3 player
[21:42] <Sake> PowerMOos: yea, it should work though
[21:42] <Sake> soz
[21:42] <henryC> anybody know of a navicat-like (but free) tool that will run on Ubuntu?
[21:42] <Sake> JOKER: it should work
[21:42] <Sake> JOKER: Ive done it b4
[21:42] <PowerMOos> Yes, albums, guifications, etc are all working OK with 2.5.5
[21:42] <eseven73> speaking of mtu how do i raise it? The GUI networking tool that's in the top right corner of the panel doesnt seem to "Save" the MTU setting i choose, cause if i do sudo ifconfig it says MTU 1500, i put it at 3000 in the gui thingy :)
[21:42] <gladiator> Mark_, erUSUL: what is mtu a measure of? and why would it be low?
[21:42] <b0ne1> does anybody know where i can find the it?
[21:42] <nibsa1242b> savid: I use it on tech support calls... as long as its updated to the most recent version, it gets rid of almost everything.
[21:42] <Mark_> mtu is 'maximum transmission unit'.. i.e. a packet frame size
[21:42] <Sake> PowerMOos: then what's wrong?
[21:42] <gladiator> let me read up on mtu :)
[21:42] <erUSUL> gladiator: is the "packet" size
[21:42] <PowerMOos> Nothing anymore.
[21:43] <ortsvorsteher> !mtu
[21:43] <JOKER> ok if you can remember what it was that you did,i am certain it will work again
[21:43] <Mark_> gladiator, dialup mtu is default 576, ethernet is 1500
[21:43] <nibsa1242b> savid: only thing to watch out for is that some virus/ worms won't let it run, so you have to rename the executable
[21:43] <Sake> JOKER: lol I wish, my friend did it for me
[21:43] <JOKER> well time to have that friend tell ya what they did...
[21:43] <erUSUL> gladiator: try changing it "sudo ifconfig eth0 mtu 1412
[21:43] <b0ne1>  hi i have a question. i plugged my usb mp3 player in and want to copy music into it. but i cant find my mp3 player anywhere on my ubuntu. if i type in tail -n0 -f /var/log/messages it says that it recognises the mp3 player
[21:43] <Hans-Martin> henryC: have you tried phpmyadmin?
[21:43] <asteroid> hello
[21:43] <Mark_> gladiator, try the command: ip link set wlan0 mtu 1500
[21:43] <gladiator> Mark_, erUSUL: i didnt change anything. i just installed ubuntu a couple days ago. it is how it is
[21:44] <Mark_> gladiator, if that helps it, then we need to figure out how to make it permanent
[21:44] <erUSUL> gladiator: try changing it "sudo ifconfig wlan0 mtu 1500"
[21:44] <henryC> Hans-Martin sure I've used phpmyadmin but it's not as nice and as fast as Navicat...
[21:44] <Sake> JOKER: He's at school, and i'm not so i cant call him. also I know what he did just not how to do it
[21:44] <Sake> JOKER: I just need to know the position of my win 7 install
[21:44] <nibsa1242b> Mark_: ok killing pulseaudio and pulse-session didn't do anything... any other ideas?
[21:44] <Sake> JOKER: how do i find it?
[21:44] <Hans-Martin> henryC: I must admit I never used Navicat nor did I look at screenshots until now...
[21:44] <asteroid> I have installed apache and activated userdir module. File created by applications in ~/public_html are own by www-data:www-data, so I cannot manage them in nautilus. How fix that  ?
[21:45] <nibsa1242b> Sake: does it show up under sudo fdisk -l ?
[21:45] <JOKER> ok hold on...looking it up
[21:45] <gladiator> Mark_, erUSUL: i changed it. now run some test again?
[21:45] <b0ne1> does anyone of you guys could help me?
[21:45] <erUSUL> Mark_: wow you were able to untangle the mess that the "ip" manuals is XD impressed
[21:45] <henryC> I like Navicat because some db edits are as simple as editing a spreadsheet, and it's super fast.
[21:45] <Sake> nibsa1242b: I haven't treid that brb its on other pc
[21:46] <Hans-Martin> b0ne1: it's probably not so easy to diagnose this with so little info
[21:46] <Mark_> gladiator, yea, run a test again
[21:46] <asteroid> Hans-Martin, and with my info can you ? ;)
[21:46] <eseven73> Mark i tried 'sudo ip link set eth0 mtu 3000' but it said RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument,
[21:46] <Mark_> nibsa1242b, that always worked for me, pulseaudio is quite the headache
[21:46] <Sake> nibsa1242b:  Ok so its dev/sda1
[21:46] <b0ne1> wait i nopaste my console results
[21:46] <erUSUL> b0ne1: paste the output of  tail /var/log/messages after plug
[21:46] <Mark_> thats because you cant set it above 1500 unless your card supports jumbo frames
[21:46] <Mark_> and even then
[21:46] <Sake> nibsa1242b: and its ID is 7
[21:46] <junglist_> Ex-Chat
[21:46] <alanbshepard70> Is there a way to keep all commands I use stored in .bash_history? I tried editing .bashrc to include export HISTSIZE=1000000 but my history still gets wiped :(
[21:46] <eseven73> dang
[21:46] <junglist_> whoops sorry
[21:46] <Mark_> your switch needs jumbo frames, the other end needs jumbo frames, etc
[21:46] <erUSUL> eseven73: 3000 is too much
[21:47] <nibsa1242b> Mark_: I absolutely hate pulseaudio. It makes me want to switch distros. 3 out of 3 computer I have Ubuntu on have issues with it.
[21:47] <eseven73> Mark problem is, VNC is making my network disconnect every 2 seconds :(   SO i figured maybe mtu too low
[21:47] <Sake> nibsa1242b: So what do i enter into grub as the (hd0,0)?
[21:47] <b0ne1> http://nopaste.info/2be5231836.html <- there i dont know if this is enough info
[21:47] <needhelp> Hello, I have a screen problem. The case is that text and images copies itself halfway and overlaps the text under. That happens both with text and images, both in IRC and on the web. In FireFox a F5 often helps, but it happens on all sites. What can I do ?
[21:47] <Hans-Martin> asteroid: probably not, but it sounds like you should use some module which switches uid as well (there are ways to config apache so that php is run with the cgi mechanism, which enables that)
[21:48] <Sake> nibsa1242b: You there?
[21:48] <Bob_Dole> so, JWM is an Ubuntu package? does it add itself to the x sessions or not? I saw on the forums that at least at 1 point it didn't.
[21:48] <nibsa1242b> Sake: I don't know how windows 7 needs its grub options setup; normally you need to chainload and do something fancy to make windows think its disk is the primary disk
[21:48] <nibsa1242b> Sake: put your sudo fdisk -l into a pastebin so I can see it
[21:48] <eseven73> !info jwm
[21:48] <JOKER> all i am comming up with is the past versions of ubuntu 7 and xp...lol
[21:48] <Sake> nibsa1242b: ok but its on other pc
[21:49] <b0ne1> i think everything sounds alright, doesnt it?
[21:49] <nibsa1242b> Sake: you can pastebin it from another pc
[21:49] <Sake> nibsa1242b: Soz gtg be on lata
[21:49] <JOKER> try googling the situation
[21:49] <nibsa1242b> What distros don't use pulse audio? I'm so fed up with pulse that I'm going to change distros.
[21:50] <corey> is there a distro that is better than average for laptops
[21:50] <rww> nibsa1242b: That's offtopic for this channel.
[21:50] <Mark_> actually, i think kubuntu might not use it
[21:50] <Mark_> youd have to check first
[21:50] <Mark_> but thats kde
[21:50] <gladiator> Mark_, erUSUL: its slightly better. download speed is upto about 20kBps. Should be about 50kBps
[21:50] <b0ne1> erUSUL http://nopaste.info/2be5231836.html <- there i dont know if this is enough info
[21:50] <Dacvak> How can I set a keystroke to move the top window to a different workspace? (I'm using Compiz-Fusion)
[21:50] <rww> Mark_: Kubuntu uses pulseaudio.
[21:50] <Mark_> rww: ahh
[21:51] <Mark_> gladiator, well its progress
[21:51] <thewrath> /usr/bin/startx: line 166: xauth: command not found
[21:51] <eseven73> no no we cant keep changing distro just because something so trivial, sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio and be done with pulse, but dont switch distros :)
[21:51] <thewrath> can not start /etc/X11/X no such file or directory, aborting
[21:51] <Hans-Martin> b0ne1: see http://nopaste.info/4ec5bca8d3.html for a log of my stuff. looks like somehow your kernel does not recognize this as a mass storage device
[21:51] <thewrath> i type in startx
[21:51] <Mark_> gladiator, http://www.dslreports.com/tweak <- run that test
[21:51] <rww> thewrath: sudo apt-get install xorg
[21:51] <Tonitoni> erUSL I got it to work. I pressed ctl/alt/f1 and then escape and it said it something about starting the regular way and then the desktop came up. Thanks.
[21:51] <Mark_> gladiator, lets see what it says for results
[21:52] <thewrath> okay thnk you rww
[21:52] <Hans-Martin> b0ne1: are you sure it's not a MTP device (MP3 player with microsoft specific protocol?)
[21:52] <b0ne1> mhm no im not shure
[21:52] <JOKER> is there an auto modprobe line to enable floppy drives automatically on startup in Intrpid?
[21:52] <thewrath> why do i need xorg rww ?
[21:52] <nibsa1242b> rww: sry, all I really want to know is why updates constantly break pulse. when 8.10 came out, pulse worked on all 3 of my computers. The first update killed all sound on 2 of them. An update from yesterday made it non-functional on my third computer.
[21:52] <rww> JOKER: add floppy to /etc/modules
[21:53] <JOKER> ty rww
[21:53] <rww> thewrath: because you appear to be missing a bunch of files needed by startx.
[21:53] <gladiator> Mark_: ok. it might take some time though. plugin missing... :(
[21:53] <Mark_> ohh, no java? =[
[21:53] <wolter> how do I enable vsync in xorg.conf?
[21:53] <Bob_Dole> xorg is the graphics subsystem, unless I've mistaken it for a rather similar package
[21:53] <rww> thewrath: the xorg metapackage will install a basic working xorg distribution
[21:53] <b0ne1> Hans-Martin windows did recognised it as a mass storage and sometimes as a mtp device
[21:53] <Hans-Martin> b0ne1: if it's MTP you need to search the web for descriptions on how to access it - I have no experience with that
[21:53] <nibsa1242b> does pulse audio use a kernel module?
[21:53] <b0ne1> oh okay thanks
[21:54] <Zeroyez> the best way to copy an iso's contents to a usb drive would be to mount -o loop /path/to/cdimage.iso /mnt/iso then cp /mnt/iso/* /media/disk -- right?
[21:54] <eseven73> nibsa1242b: but switching distros over that is like throwing the baby out with the bath water, remove pulse if it's so problematic
[21:54] <erUSUL> b0ne1: the tail is not enough paste "dmesg | tail -n 25" output
[21:54] <b0ne1> ok wait a sec..
[21:54] <daftykins> Zeroyez, why not "dd if=/path/to/file.iso of=/usb/key/device"
[21:54] <Bob_Dole> I heard complaints about pulse audio, in that it tends to take a bunch of other stuff it shouldn't with it
[21:55] <Zeroyez> wouldn't dd copy the UDF file system to the USB stick?
[21:55] <Dacvak> How can I set a keystroke to move the top window to a different workspace? (I'm using Compiz-Fusion)
[21:55] <daftykins> not sure, read "man dd"
[21:55] <eseven73> Bob ive never had issues like that :)
[21:55] <rww> Zeroyez: yes, it would.
[21:55] <valuedcustomer> hello.  why won't ssh, apache2, or vsftpd start unless i login?  i'm using ubuntu 8.10.

[21:56] <Zeroyez> i just want the iso to have 100% of its files and attributes copied to a fat32 usb stick
[21:56] <rww> valuedcustomer: You're probably using NetworkManager to manage your internet, which doesn't connect until you log in.
[21:56] <nibsa1242b> eseven73: think of it like this... I have 3 computers at my house to maintain that are all used by 3 different people... and another 3-4 used by relatives with Ubuntu. Every time pulse breaks I have to spend a day or two fixing some / all of those computer. If I stay with Ubuntu, that means every six months, I'll waste a week of my time fixing pulse. Its not worth it.
[21:56] <valuedcustomer> rww:  i am.  what should i do?
[21:57] <eseven73> Bob_Dole: or maybe rather than removing pulse, set up a script or something that just disables it on boot
[21:57] <DaDa|Urka> Actually what's wrong with Pidgin?
[21:57] <rww> valuedcustomer: How do you connect to your network? Ethernet or wireless?
[21:57] <JOKER> rww thanks again for your asist
[21:57] <b0ne1> thx Hans-Martin this is exactly my problem. i have the samsung s3 and somebody written that its a mtp only device
[21:57] <erUSUL> b0ne1: it seems that there is a problem the device connects and disconnects againand again
[21:57] <Hans-Martin> erUSUL: the problem with b0ne1's player is that it's MTP (confirmed by the USB ID)

[21:59] <Hans-Martin> b0ne1: my son has an S3, too, and IIRC I've given up on supporting it under Ubuntu. My son uses windows, where the device is supported, so this is probably no help for you.

[22:01] <myron> I can't get compiz to use emerald instead of gtk-window-decorator. any thoughts?
[22:01] <Bob_Dole> Ok then, bad ethernet cable. crap.
[22:01] <Zeroyez> oh haha
[22:01] <valuedcustomer> rww:  thanks
[22:01] <Bob_Dole> Oh well, a bit of use of the wireless won't kill me
[22:01] <eseven73> nibsa1242b: yeah I hear you, but, if we switch distros everytime something went bad,,, well...we'd never get anything done, On the contrary, Linux gives us this flexablilty and freedome to switch when ever we feel it's needed :)  (i gotta take this to #ubuntu-offtopic before the ops strike the !OT hammer on me) hehe :D
[22:01]  * eseven73 hides
[22:01] <Hans-Martin> rww: thanks!
[22:01] <myron> grep -i emerald /usr/bin/compiz says that emerald is default if it is installed
[22:01] <b0ne1> cya guys. and thank you very much for the support
[22:02] <myron> in other words, the option there is yes.
[22:02] <crdlb> myron: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[22:02] <myron> hardy 8.04
[22:03] <Zeroyez> so as i was asking earlier, cp /mnt/iso/* /media/disk would copy every file and dir in /mnt/iso to the usb stick?
[22:03] <qbrix> Are there torrents available for the official CD of Ubuntu Server 8.10 ?
[22:03] <JOKER> i will be back later..
[22:03] <erUSUL> Zeroyez: add a "-a" to cp
[22:04] <erUSUL> qbrix: yep
[22:04] <crdlb> myron: that USE_EMERALD=yes doesn't do anything anymore
[22:04] <Zeroyez> thanks erUSUL
[22:04] <_VIM_> !away > felix-da-catz_zz
[22:04] <gladiator> Zeroyez: add a -r if u want all subdirectories to be copied as well
[22:04] <qbrix> where are the torrent lists?
[22:04] <crdlb> myron: look in ccsm: WIndow Decoration > Command; that's what controls it now
[22:04] <rww> qbrix: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt
[22:04] <Zeroyez> gladiator: -a includes -r does it now?
[22:04] <Zeroyez> not*
[22:05] <erUSUL> qbrix: on the same place you find the iso you find the torrent files and the jidgo ones
[22:05] <erUSUL> Zeroyez: yes it does
[22:05] <myron> crdlb: I tried to use the emerald command in there, but it still loaded gtk-window-decorator
[22:06] <Hans-Martin> rww: I don't know how I load packages from the PPA, is there a how-to somewhere?
[22:06] <crdlb> myron: do you have something in your startup apps running gtk-window-decorator then?
[22:06] <qbrix> erUSUL: thanks!
[22:06] <Drknezz> Hi
[22:06] <myron> crdlb: do I need to change it from "emerald" to "emerald --replace"
[22:06] <erUSUL> qbrix: no problem
[22:06] <crdlb> myron: note that it won't take effect immediately if there's already a decorator running
[22:06] <crdlb> myron: no, since it only runs if there is no decorator, it doesn't matter
[22:07] <myron> crdlb: screenlets wouldn't have an effect on it would it?
[22:07] <Dreamglider> How can i search for all types on images in ubuntu ?
[22:07] <crdlb> myron: no
[22:07] <deany> myron, try compiz fusion icon.. handy
[22:07] <Drknezz> fusion icon pwns

[22:08] <crdlb> does it?
[22:08] <trillex> Hate to just run in and ask for help but I'm in a bit of a pickle and would like to get this to run today. I'm very newbieish. I got a P5QL Pro and a 256 MB USB key with no burnable CDs close by. I can't seem to get it to detect a ethernet card and a bit of googling suggested I need third party ones but how do I best do that with minimal install?

[22:09] <trillex> ASUS Motherboard
[22:09] <koshar1> Dreamglider or use beagle

[22:09] <deany> myron, apt-get install it.
[22:09] <trillex> ATL1e, it seems

[22:11] <trillex> but I'm not positive that I got ahold of the intrepid mini
[22:11] <trillex> I will double check
[22:11] <Drknezz> trillex, did you do what i told you? "lspci"
[22:12] <Zeroyez> btw the network card for p5ql pro is Atheros AR8121/AR8113/AR8114 PCI-E Ethernet
[22:12] <erUSUL> trillex: well the -13 is from proposed... i will chck in packages.ubuntu.com
[22:12] <trillex> Oop, sorry, didn't see that
[22:13] <Drknezz> Zeroyez: , i think madwifi has drivers for that card
[22:13] <koshar1> Bob_Dole i dont think the themes would be the issue, you may just need to structure the menu for the exivlent itms to be where they may expect them to be.
[22:13] <myron> great, looks like the fusion icon fixed it.  I'm going to reboot and make sure that it keeps my setings

[22:15] <nat2610> Sorry for my question that isn't related to CentOS but strickly sysadmin. I don't know where to ask it... it's a best practice question: I have a 3ware raid controller with RAID1 cluster and 1 of the drive is degraded, I'd like to replace it and do it as fast as possible. My idea is to shutdown the machine swap the drive restart it and recreated the raid after the machine reboot and is running again (to limit the downtime).
[22:15] <nat2610>  Is it better to remove the drive from the unit (software) before shutding down the server or it doesn't matter. I'm hopping to have an automatic rebuilding after the boot
[22:15] <peppe> salve a tutti

[22:18] <myron> thanks guys
[22:18] <Drknezz> trillex, lol?
[22:18] <nat2610> Mark_, I'm going to ... I just don't know how to start ... if I can just turn it off or if there is any gain removing it from the unit
[22:19] <Mark_> gladiator, at the bottom of the results page there is a section that says "Still stuck? copy/paste this url:" and there is a link underneath, that will show us the results of the test
[22:19] <gladiator> Mark_:  http://www.dslreports.com/tweakr/block:4ff5dfd?service=wireless&speed=512&os=Linux&via=normal
[22:19] <Mark_> nat2610, it depends on your specific card (if it has enough slots etc to leave the degraded drive in there), leaving it in shouldnt hurt, but theres no need to leave it in
[22:20] <trillex> Just redownloaded 8.10 mini, put it on the drive and tossed it over
[22:20] <trillex> Nothing.
[22:20] <Mark_> gladiator, you have a very weird connectiong

[22:21] <dude7064> in other words, how to connect to the device from windows ?
[22:21] <NemsSs> Hi everybody
[22:21] <Mark_> because 1500 mtu is very strange
[22:21] <Mark_> 1500 mtu wont work for you
[22:21] <reynante> what does the circle icon on the upper left of any open windows do?
[22:22] <erUSUL> reynante: opens the window menu ¿
[22:22] <NemsSs> window is not windows
[22:22] <gladiator> Mark_: whats weird about it? and what should i set the mtu to then?
[22:23] <Mark_> gladiator, 1500 is the frame size for ethernet, wimax must use some sort of encapsulation, looking at your tweak test you might try something like 1420
[22:23] <erUSUL> dude7064: ask #vbox
[22:23] <Mark_> ip link wlan0 set mtu 1420
[22:24] <Hans-Martin> bye folks
[22:24] <erUSUL> gladiator: Mark_ maybe it is better to just check which mtu windows uses?
[22:25] <Mark_> the goal is to make mtu as large as possible without going over the hardware maximum.. its like 'the price is right'
[22:25] <gladiator> Mark_: shouldnt that more or less be link independent? for instance right now, my laptop is connected to wifi router which is connected via lan to the Wimax receiver which is then connected to wimax
[22:25] <AmirB> Hey, I'm trying to install Xubuntu, but when I boot into the cd, hitting "ENTER" on the option to install (or any of the options for that matter) doesn't do anything
[22:25] <Bob_Dole> well. This is surprisingly easy to configure..hopefully when I get back Xubuntu actually works with the overly-large DHCP packets our router puts out.
[22:25] <Mark_> in theory, it should be
[22:25] <Mark_> due to path mtu discovery
[22:25] <LSD200> MTU of 1470 is a standard for networking in windows with 1500 being the max for small networks

[22:28] <trillex> But yeah, it does say it's in everything yet isn't in this minimal iso.
[22:28] <trillex> Any way to somehow add it to it?
[22:28] <Bob_Dole> the bot banned the netsplitters?
[22:28] <Cream> !exploit
[22:28] <gladiator> Mark_: ok. thanks guys
[22:28] <Cream> Bob_Dole, actually, it's a exploit

[22:28] <AmirB> why doesn't the Xubuntu cd screen let me press the "Enter" key?
[22:28] <Cream> the bot banned them and force forwarded them users to another channel.

[22:31] <phoenixz> I need to help somebody who has his computer at home, behind a router he got from his ISP.. is there any way possible that I could connect to his machine using SSH to do something that costs me 20 seconds, instead of spending the 2 days I just did over a messenger?
[22:32] <style> thx
[22:32] <armence> I am looking for a certain package, how can I find it? What's the command line instruction to list packages with a certain name?
[22:32] <kane77> phoenixz, if he can set up the router then yes..
[22:32] <erUSUL> armence: aptitude search string
[22:32] <nightrid3r> phoenixz have him put his pc in DMZ
[22:33] <phoenixz> nightrid3r: hehehe, he can, but he can't.. as in, he is a computer noob..
[22:33] <armence> erUSUL: Thanks
[22:33] <phoenixz> nightrid3r: Im trying to get him to install java.. if he can't do that, he most definately won't be able to configure his router..
[22:33] <nightrid3r> phoenixz then you'll be out of luck
[22:34] <phoenixz> nightrid3r: mmmmm... might it be possible for me to access the router from this side of the internet? I could configure it..
[22:34] <Bob_Dole> I've been piddling around with CentOS trying to make it work for my needs, but it simply hasn't been cooperative, so I'm trying Xubuntu....and it seems much more cooperative.
[22:34] <nightrid3r> phoenixz if it's configured right, no you won't be able to
[22:34] <Anacranom> phoenixz, tried crossloop?
[22:34] <phoenixz> Anacranom: crossloop?
[22:34] <racecar56> glad it works for you :D
[22:35] <qdii> hello
[22:35] <racecar56> hi
[22:35] <Anacranom> its free and runs on windows and in wine, a remote desktop client
[22:35] <Anacranom> its free and runs on windows and in wine, a remote desktop client phoenixz
[22:35] <erUSUL> trillex: sorry can not think of a way to modify the iso to include a new kernel...
[22:35] <Anacranom> phoenixz, is your friend on windows?
[22:35] <qdii> My computer crashes when I try to run another X server (with any command ! for instance startx :1.0) . Can you explain me how to get it working ?
[22:36] <Stylee> hello, I was trying to install the newest nvidia driver, and something went wrong, and now it seems it doesn't want to work even with the driver provided with ubuntu, what could be wrong?
[22:36] <mrwes> Hey, I'm out of blank CD's for the installation iso -- can I burn it to a DVD ?
[22:36] <phoenixz> Anacranom: ubuntu, actually.. and its not my friend, its worse, its my dad.. :) worse as in that his tech level is like... below 0..
[22:36] <ubersoldat> trillex-> you can mount the ISO and insert the compiled kernel... but I can't guarantee it'll work
[22:36] <_Whipper__> mrwes_yup
[22:36] <mrwes> kewl
[22:36] <Anacranom> ok, i maybe can help you
[22:36] <mrwes> thanks
[22:36] <nibsa1242b> is there normally an alsa kernel mod loaded?
[22:37] <Bob_Dole> fresh installs have such lovely updates......
[22:37] <racecar56> yes
[22:37] <trillex> Could it be that it might be missing from x64 and it would be available in 32? I should be able to update afterwards.
[22:37] <_GRUB_> hey
[22:38] <armence> So... I have a second monitor, how can I enable it?
[22:38] <phoenixz> nightrid3r: to be able to access his computer over ssh, all I need to do is get his computer in the DMZ?
[22:38] <erUSUL> trillex: i still mantain that the driver should be there....
[22:38] <josesito> hi all, I'm trying to get my microphone to work, but i don't know anything of pulseaudio, can someone help me?
[22:38] <_Whipper__> armence:why not?
[22:38] <nightrid3r> phoenixz yes, and hope his isp doesn't block port
[22:38] <trillex> Most likely is. :) I might just not know how.
[22:39] <Wicked> any ideas on when/if bluetooth will be fixed? seems theres alot of complaints of it not working
[22:39] <_Whipper__> armen: sorry, didnt read the q right :P
[22:39] <nibsa1242b> joseito check alsamixer, and pavucontrol
[22:39] <nibsa1242b> josesito: check alsamixer and pavucontrol
[22:39] <josesito> and amarok won't play radio streams, it says it has no decoders, but i installed what's listed here: http://www.guia-ubuntu.org/index.php?title=Instalar_codecs_multimedia
[22:39] <armence> _Whipper__: Yeah, I was quite confused by your question...
[22:39] <phoenixz> nightrid3r: ssh port? nah, doubtfull.. I mean, windows and ssh port? wah..
[22:40] <ofosho> Does anyone here have a netbook that came with Ubuntu preinstalled, that they like enough to recommend to a complete beginner?
[22:40] <Wicked> !bluetooth
[22:40] <nightrid3r> phoenixz the ISP might do it, i know mine does :(
[22:40] <Wicked> !blackberry
[22:40] <welton>  someone knows how to install the rtl8187b in the kernel 2.6.27??
[22:40] <_Whipper__> armence: u can, if your hardware supports it..
[22:40] <nibsa1242b> Is there a way to see what packages have been updated / added recently?
[22:40] <phoenixz> nightrid3r: ISP's should keep their friggin hands off of the internet.. just pass through, thats what they get paid for
[22:41] <Anacranom> phoenixz, can he type 1 cmd in?  sudo apt-get install openssh-server    and then get his username and passwd and IP adddy?
[22:41] <nightrid3r> phoenixz if you want to talk to my isp i'll gladly give the adress :)
[22:41] <phoenixz> Anacranom: "adddy" ? what?
[22:41] <armence> _Whipper__: Well, my hardware can support it given that when I had windows, I used my second screen all the time... But I never had to configure anything so, I'm kind of at a loss as to how I can make the monitor work...
[22:41] <Anacranom> phoenixz, IP address
[22:41] <josesito> nibsa1242b: alsamixer only shows 1 control and it seems ok
[22:42] <rudi_> my xkeysymdb for my logitech g15 is mapped false
[22:42] <erUSUL> !boot
[22:42] <phoenixz> Anacranom: got his IP address.. openssh-server should be installed already.. trying to access that IP
[22:42] <Anacranom> phoenixz, http://www.ipchicken.com
[22:42] <rudi_> when i press stop button it recognise it as lowervolume
[22:42] <nibsa1242b> josesito: use tab, tab generally tabs you to capture
[22:42] <Slart> Hello, is there some kind of simple bandwidth shaper that just makes sure one computer on the LAN doesn't hog all the external bandwidth? I've tried looking at traffic shaping in the past but I've always come to the conclusion that it just isn't worth the time... any hints? tips?
[22:42] <josesito> nibsa1242b: i know, but it's also ok
[22:42] <_Whipper__> armence: cant help u there.. if u mean under Ubuntu..
[22:43] <nibsa1242b> josesito: ok, so what does pavucontrol say?
[22:43] <josesito> nibsa1242b: capture shows only 1 device and it's all up.
[22:43] <josesito> nibsa1242b: i don't have it installed
[22:43] <nibsa1242b> josesito: install it then
[22:43] <_Whipper__> dmn.. boot >
[22:43] <armence> _Whipper__: What I mean, is that I know my hardware supports a second screen from doing so under Windows. Now I am using Ubuntu and I want to know how to make it work there.
[22:44] <pjsturgeon> how to resize and create paritions using command line?
[22:44] <WantingVideoInEm> i'm looking to get a webcam working with empathy, does anyone know what packages i need to install. The webcam is already working
[22:44] <_Whipper__> armen: some-one else will assist u
[22:44] <Bob_Dole> Hmm, I wonder how well this thing will run BZ-FLag..
[22:44] <josesito> nibsa1242b: ok, also does that have something to do with amarok not working?
[22:44] <ubersoldat> armence-> which brand is our video card?
[22:44] <nibsa1242b> josesito: it gives you volume control; you can also check system->preferences->sound
[22:44] <ubersoldat> s/out/your
[22:45] <armence> ubersoldat: NVIDIA I believe
[22:45] <josesito> nibsa1242b: in pavucontrol everything looks fine
[22:45] <ubersoldat> you'd better be sure
[22:45] <armence> ubersoldat: I am
[22:45] <nibsa1242b> josesito: your mic isn't muted?
[22:46] <ubersoldat> if truly is an nvidia, check first (using google) if your card is supported on Ubuntu. If it's then you should only activate the propietary drivers
[22:46] <Gnea> !nvidia
[22:46] <Gnea> ubottu: all nvidia cards are supported in ubuntu
[22:46] <Gnea> oops
[22:47] <Gnea> ubersoldat: all nvidia cards are supported in ubuntu
[22:47] <armence> ubersoldat: I activated the recommended proprietary drivers already
[22:47] <josesito> nibsa1242b: nope not muted
[22:47] <nibsa1242b> hmmm
[22:47] <dotblank> Hello all, having a good day?
[22:47] <NemsSs> yai dotblank  thinks
[22:47] <nibsa1242b> josesito: dunno then, pulse audio boggles the mind
[22:47] <NemsSs> thanks
[22:48] <Jinxed-> Is there an easy way to clear temporary internet files from terminal for firefox?
[22:48] <ubersoldat> then, on System->Administration->Nvidia Settings. you can configure TiwnView
[22:48] <josesito> nibsa1242b: any way to change to alsa?
[22:48] <ubersoldat> s/TiwnView/TwinView
[22:48] <NemsSs> alsamixer
[22:49] <ghindo> Hi, I was wondering if somebody could help me with a quick question - is there a good program in the Ubuntu repos for installing/managing GTK themes?
[22:49] <nibsa1242b> josesito: I think there is a way to change, I've had bad luck doing so ( made everything sound staticty and flat like a 48kbps mp3 )
[22:49] <dotblank> Who here is good at GTK+ python development?
[22:50] <crdlb> dotblank: #pygtk on irc.gimp.net
[22:50] <LjL> !info gtk-theme-switch | ghindo, maybe...?
[22:51] <armence> Thanks
[22:51] <wolter> is i get a kernel panic should I get a new syslog file?
[22:51] <Las1> "1112 packages will be reinstalled"
[22:51] <ghindo>  LjL:  Thanks!
[22:52] <Guest30358> ciao, ho appena installato ubuntu, come installo i drivers ati? ho scaricato questi: ati-driver-installer-9.2-x86.x86_64.run
[22:52] <Guest30358> e adesso?
[22:52] <rainwalker> is there a way to continuously read from/write to an external drive? right now, ubuntu does it in bursts
[22:52] <nightrid3r> !it | Guest30358
[22:52] <LjL> rainwalker: bursts? that's weird
[22:53] <rainwalker> LjL: I read somewhere that it does it to preserve write cycles?
[22:53] <trillex> erUSUL: Sorry to bother you again but could you maybe link the optional ubuntu server 8.10 installation that could fit on a 256M usb?
[22:53] <ariqz> when I try to boot off the ubuntu cd on my laptop, I get to a promp that says busy box then ata2.00 revalidation failed. I tried the boot option of all-generic-ide which did nothing
[22:53] <x_> hello how do i find my gateway address in linux
[22:53] <LjL> rainwalker: err, not sure. i mean, it will certainly try and write several blocks at a time, but why would it stop between one and the other? (i guess that's what "bursts" means)
[22:53] <x_> ipconfig in windows?
[22:53] <Zeroyez> can cp show avg write speed?
[22:54] <LjL> x_: ifconfig is mostly equivalent to ipconfig
[22:54] <dotblank> x_: netstat -rn
[22:54] <LjL> Zeroyez: no, but you could time it with "time cp blah"
[22:54] <armence> How can I restart X server?
[22:54] <phoenixz> Any dutch ubuntu person here who could tell me where I can find "synaptics" in the menus? Im desperately trying to help somebody install java on his dutch ubuntu system but I cant find synaptics!
[22:54] <LjL> armence: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[22:54] <Rabbitbunny> armence: ctrl alt bkspace
[22:54] <Zeroyez> alright
[22:54] <rainwalker> LjL: that's what I'm wondering, too...but that's what it seems to be doing, at least when writing to this external hard drive I have. it doesn't seem to be as apparent with my USB drive, though
[22:54] <dotblank> armence: ctl+alt+backspace
[22:54] <LjL> phoenixz: try asking in #ubuntu-nl
[22:55] <phoenixz> no response..
[22:55] <nightrid3r> phoenixz systeem--beheer-synaptic
[22:55] <racecar56> gtg
[22:55] <phoenixz> nightrid3r: didn't figure you were dutch :) thanks!
[22:55] <nightrid3r> phoenixz Belg :)
[22:55] <phoenixz> nightrid3r: close enough :)
[22:56] <LjL> rainwalker: maybe it's just the *source* it's copying data *from* that's slower than the destination?
[22:56] <rainwalker> LjL, I don't think so. it happens whether I'm copying from my USB drive (like right now) or from my computer's hard drive
[22:57] <ariqz> when I try to boot off the ubuntu cd on my laptop, I get to a promp that says busy box then ata2.00 revalidation failed. I tried the boot option of all-generic-ide which did nothing
[22:57] <LjL> rainwalker: your internal HD might be slower than your external - especially if the files you're copying are fragmented all over the drive
[22:57] <dotblank> Is there a list of every single preseed option? And has anyone gotten ldap to work on ubuntu
[22:57] <LjL> rainwalker: try doing a test copy from, say, /dev/zero
[22:57] <Travis-42> In Ubuntu 8.10, is the hibernate pretty reliable/safe now?  Is there anything I can install to improve it's reliability?
[22:57] <LjL> rainwalker: see if that's done in bursts too
[22:57] <nibsa1242b> ariqz: have you verified that the cd was burned properly
[22:57] <tony426> do i need to uninstall the nvidia driver from the repos when installing the one from nvidia's site?
[22:57] <rainwalker> LjL: /dev/zero? I'm not sure what you mean
[22:57] <nibsa1242b> Travis-42: depends on your hardware, test and figure out if it works or not.
[22:57] <ariqz> nibsal: it's a pressed cd
[22:58] <nibsa1242b> ariqz: it could have a scratch
[22:58] <LjL> rainwalker: /dev/zero is a "virtual" device that just generates zeroes, as many as you want (until you stop it), and as quickly possible
[22:58] <ariqz> here, I'll try it on a diff machine
[22:58] <nibsa1242b> tony426: never install from the website; too many problems that way
[22:58] <rainwalker> LjL; alright, so how would I go about copying something to/from it?
[22:58] <nibsa1242b> tony426: trust the repo
[22:58] <LjL> rainwalker: if you cp /dev/zero to /mnt/whatever (perhaps use "time" to see how long it takes too), you should see just how the external drive is doing unrelated to the drive you're copying from
[22:59] <LjL> rainwalker: as normal - cp /dev/zero <destinationfile>. just ctrl+c it when you think you've had enough of it.
[22:59] <nibsa1242b> brb
[22:59] <dKingston> k question
[22:59] <dKingston> I hit install ubuntu
[22:59] <dKingston> and
[23:00] <dKingston> it freezes
[23:00] <dKingston> before it gets to the first install screen
[23:00] <LjL> !enter
[23:00] <dKingston> there is video etc
[23:00] <dKingston> sorry
[23:00] <tony426> yeah, but if it fixes some things with my wine games, i'd take that chance
[23:00] <FloodBot2> dKingston: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:00] <trillex> Sorry to bother again but could anyone maybe link the optional ubuntu server 8.10 installation that could fit on a 256M usb? It needs to support atl1e
[23:00] <Stylee> hello, I wanted to install nvidia drivers 180 with a script they provide, and I messed it up, now I can't even use the drivers that ubuntu gives, how could I fix it?
[23:00] <ubersoldat> Stylee-> reinstall, it'll faster
[23:01] <rainwalker> LjL; do you think I should wait for the files I'm currently copying to finish? things seem to slow down if I'm copying multiple things at once
[23:01] <LjL> Stylee: at least it's taught you that you should use the provided driver instead of installing stuff from external sites. anyway, have you tried "sudo apt-get --reinstall install nvidia-glx" (if nvidia-glx is the correct driver)?
[23:01] <LjL> rainwalker: you definitely should
[23:01] <LjL> rainwalker: do it when your computer is as idle as possible
[23:01] <rainwalker> ah
[23:01] <Stylee> LjL will try thanks
[23:02] <gidna> How can I remove a program from the menu
[23:02] <gidna> in applications?
[23:02] <LjL> gidna: well, if you want to remove the program completely, use synaptic (or "sudo apt-get remove programname"). if you just want to remove the menu entry, right click on the menu.
[23:02] <Zeroyez> Stylee: make sure you have build-essential and linux-headers-$(uname -r) before trying to install nvidia's driver package as well
[23:02] <Zeroyez> (from nvidia site)
[23:02] <gidna> with right click I don't receive nothing
[23:03] <ariqz> when I try to boot off the ubuntu cd on my laptop, I get to a promp that says busy box then ata2.00 revalidation failed. I tried the boot option of all-generic-ide which did nothing. I tested the cd in another computer and it worked fine.
[23:04] <gidna> I've disintalled wine but it is still there
[23:04] <gidna> How can I remove it from the menu=
[23:04] <LjL> gidna: yes you do. right click on the _menu_, not on the menu _entry_
[23:04] <LjL> gidna: how did you uninstall wine?
[23:04] <Las1> I installed 8.04 and something did not install right, how can I figure out what?
[23:05] <anom01y> is it possible to make a script that gets run when you switch users ?
[23:05] <LjL> Las1: err, how do you know that "something" did not install right for a start?
[23:05] <bazz> can i popup a message (like the 'you need to restart firefox' message after ff gets updated) from a script?
[23:06] <nickrud> bazz, zenity provides some nice dialog tools for scripting
[23:06] <josesito> what is needed for amarok to play radio streams? what codecs?
[23:06] <cactusfrog> hi
[23:06] <oCean_> bazz: if it's just for echo, use /usr/bin/xmessage
[23:06] <Las1> LjL: because when I went to update several things did not update right citing problems with dependencies
[23:07] <Las1> and because I got errors during install but all it said was "dpkg"
[23:07] <cactusfrog> what is the best way to install programs through terminal or through add and remove programs
[23:07] <bazz> nickrud: that's just gtk dialogs right.  i want the little thing in the systray
[23:07] <gidna> now I've remove all the application barr
[23:07] <gidna> How can I reput it?
[23:07] <bazz> oCean_: same thing, just an xdialog, i'd like it in the systray
[23:07] <nickrud> cactusfrog, preference, both do the same thing
[23:07] <LjL> Las1: ok, first pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list please
[23:08] <cactusfrog> what is the best way to install programs through terminal or through add/remove under aplications
[23:08] <nickrud> cactusfrog, although add/remove doesn't show everything; synaptic would
[23:08] <cactusfrog> so what is better
[23:08] <zeldarocks> question about Ubuntu mailing lists: How do you access your subscription? you konw to change settings and such?
[23:08] <nickrud> cactusfrog, neither is 'better' it's what you prefer to use
[23:08] <cactusfrog> if i know the aplication i want and its under add/remove
[23:08] <cactusfrog> ok
[23:08] <cactusfrog> ty
[23:08] <fearful> cactusfrog, sudo apt-get install
[23:08] <gidna> How can I add the application barr?
[23:08] <gidna> I removed it for error
[23:09] <ariqz> when I try to boot off the ubuntu cd on my laptop, I get to a promp that says busy box then ata2.00 revalidation failed. I tried the boot option of all-generic-ide which did nothing. I tested the cd in another computer and it worked fine.
[23:09] <fearful> cactusfrog, and you can check apt-cache search <name of package> (wildcards are avaliable '*') for package names
[23:09] <rww> zeldarocks: Go to https://lists.ubuntu.com/, pick the list you're subscribed to, then enter your email address in the bottom input box and click "Unsubscribe or edit options"
[23:09] <oCean_> bazz: hmm.. ok. Don't know about that.
[23:09] <ariqz> I guess no ubuntu on my laptop for me
[23:09] <nickrud> gidna right click the panel, select add to panel , main menu
[23:09] <timo> jounty room?
[23:10] <timo> jaunty
[23:10] <oCean_> !jaunty | timo
[23:10] <nickrud> ariqz, I'd try asking again in about 6 hours
[23:10] <b1n42y> ariqz, have you got any existing OSs on there?
[23:11] <gidna> How can I remove a menu?
[23:11] <ariqz> yeah, vista
[23:11] <riwa> !upgrade
[23:11] <trillex> Meh, seems like I won't get this to work.
[23:11] <cactusfrog> whats a wildcard?
[23:11] <nickrud> gidna, run the application   alacarte , that's the menu editor
[23:11] <b1n42y> *
[23:11] <brucedougal> any one any good with mythtv?????
[23:11] <wolter> hi
[23:11] <wolter> my mouse click is disabled
[23:11] <wolter> !
[23:11] <rudi_> where can i change ubunt keytable settings?
[23:12] <Slart> cactusfrog: for searching for patterns.. ie   fire* would match firefox as well as firestarter
[23:12] <wolter> i enabled compiz' desktop zoom and now I have to press control to click!
[23:12] <gidna> nickrud ok and delete an item?
[23:12] <Zeroyez> cactusfrog: a wildcard is a character that can represent a lot of other characters, ex. aaaaaaa = * = aaa?aaa = aaa* (in most wildcard situations)
[23:12] <Slart> cactusfrog: there's also regular expressions.. wildcards on steroids.. with flamethrowers and jetpacks...
[23:12] <nickrud> gidna, in alacarte, just uncheck the item
[23:12] <nickrud> gidna, it's still there, just doesn't show in the menu that way.
[23:13] <Iceman_B^ssh> how do I delete all my highlights from irssi EXCEPT those that match "iceman_b" with any suffix ?
[23:14] <nibsa1242b> I'm back now for those I was talking to before.
[23:14] <cactusfrog> how do i install tremulous with GUID
[23:14] <ariqz> nibsa1242b, it worked fine in another computer
[23:14] <nickrud> cactusfrog, install the program, then run   sudo chmod g+s /path/to/tremulous-binary
[23:14] <Bob_Dole> Replace the executable wit the GUID version, then chmod it to be executable.
[23:14] <cactusfrog> no
[23:15] <cactusfrog> if i do it that way i dont get guid
[23:15] <cactusfrog> nvm
[23:15] <nibsa1242b> ariqz: ok, so it doesn't like your laptop for some reason
[23:15] <Suikwan> Can anyone help me setup a DLink DWL-G520 wireless card under Ubuntu?
[23:15] <b1n42y> ariqz, what version of ubuntu you insatlling
[23:15] <ariqz> 8.04
[23:16] <Bob_Dole> Tremulous is a fun game, and I love playing it... but yeah, the normal version Ubuntu installs lacks GUID support, and there are no .debs with it, that I know of.
[23:16] <Zeroyez> is there a safely remove hardware equivalent windows equivalent for ubuntu?
[23:16] <rainwalker> LjL: I did what you said, but I'm not sure what to look for. the file appaears, but I have no way to guage the progress. normallly the "copying files" window pops up, and that's how I know it does things in bursts
[23:16] <Slart> Zeroyez: unmount it, if it's a usb memory.. that's about it, I think
[23:16] <Slart> Zeroyez: there's also an "eject" command you can try
[23:16] <b1n42y> ariqz, yeah seems to be a bug i did a gogole search for you and havent seen that problem on 8.10
[23:16] <Zeroyez> thanks
[23:17] <wolter> help! somebody!
[23:17] <wolter> i need to click!
[23:17] <LjL> rainwalker: i thought you could look at the HD icon. well, i guess you could always try navigating to /dev/ in Nautilus, and then copying "zero" from there. not sure whether that works.
[23:17] <wolter> and I can't!
[23:17] <rainwalker> LjL: on a related note, when I stopped copying from /dev/zero and chose to delete the file I had made, it took about 10 seconds for it to get around to deleting it...even though it was only about 142 MB, and then it deleted it in a flash
[23:17] <b1n42y> ariqz, if you have the bandwidth maybe download 8.10
[23:17] <wolter> something in compiz changed the binding!!
[23:17] <ariqz> b1n42y: I don't. I got 8.04 sent to me, and I was hoping to keep 8.04 for a while.. meh
[23:18] <nickrud> wolter, alt-f2 metacity --replace ; then  run ccsm and look in the zoom settings for the offending one
[23:18] <zeldarocks> what are the different ubuntu channels?
[23:19] <Slart> !irc | zeldarocks
[23:19] <wolter> nickrud, there is no binding that replaces button1!
[23:19] <b1n42y> ariqz, shame.. order 8.10 the only other thing i can suggest is find out your HD controller specs and hard drive and google that and 8.04 also
[23:19] <wolter> thats the problem!
[23:19] <adante> hi all, according to the memtest on the livecd i have corrupt ram, is there a way i can tell which sodimm it is from the results on the page?
[23:19] <dale1v> the web buttons in my firefox are ugly as sin (theyre all blocky) is there a fix for firefox 3 that i could use to change this; the other fixes are for firefox 2 and below
[23:19] <b1n42y> !hardware | ariqz
[23:20] <coreyman> where are applications stored
[23:20] <coreyman> trying to select a program to open a file with
[23:20] <b1n42y> adante, im not sure but you could test mem indivdually
[23:20] <nightrid3r> coreyman /bin /sbin /usr/bin /usr/sbin
[23:20] <Suikwan> Can anyone help me setup a DLink DWL-G520 wireless card under Ubuntu?
[23:20] <adante> b1n42y: i was afraid of that, the ram is pretty non trivial to remove in this laptop heh
[23:21] <b1n42y> adante, just earth yourself to the case or some other object before taking it out
[23:21] <trillex> Hate to just run in and ask for help but I'm in a bit of a pickle and would like to get this to run today. I'm very newbieish. I got a P5QL Pro and a 256 MB USB key with no burnable CDs close by. I can't seem to get it to detect a ethernet card and a bit of googling suggested I need third party ones but how do I best do that with minimal install?
[23:22] <wolter> nickrud, ah nvm. I put compiz back on and it works now.
[23:22] <wolter> weird.
[23:22] <nickrud> wolter, I'm glad, cuz I had no clue about what to do ;)_
[23:22] <wolter> nickrud, haha, me neither!
[23:23] <b1n42y> adante, http://shsc.info/Memtest86  half way down the page
[23:23] <trapline91> Can someone tell me why it everytime I try and burn an .iso with Brasero it corrupts my CD and I can't use it?
[23:23] <temoto_> Is it possible to uninstall ubuntu's kernel?
[23:23] <trapline91> I burn at the slowest possible speed.
[23:23] <wolter> how can i know which is my true refresh rate?
[23:24] <temoto_> i'm trying apt-get remove linux-image.* but it says like it's gonna install newest image and restricted modules
[23:24] <rainwalker> LjL: copying /dev/zero through Nautilus did indeed bring up the "Copying Files" window, and it went FAST
[23:24] <crdlb> wolter: on nvidia? nvidia-settings can tell you
[23:24] <temoto_> wolter: do you have CRT display or TV?
[23:24] <wolter> temoto_, lcd.
[23:25] <ariqz> who pays for the free ubuntu cds anyway?
[23:25] <swegner1> Isn't there a simple GNOME applet for sending files over a network?  I can't think of the name..
[23:25] <ariqz> I'd like to thank them
[23:25] <trapline91> Anyone else have this problem or what? I really want to burn the Ubuntu 9.04 .iso but it keeps corrupting my cd
[23:25] <fearful> trapline91, try #ubuntu+1
[23:25] <temoto_> wolter: because if you have LCD and you actually see something on it, then your refresh rate is 60Hz and it is perfetcly fine.
[23:26] <rww> ariqz: Canonical, I think.
[23:26] <wolter> crdlb, well, I have 60.01 Hz, but I still experience a little screen tearing when moving windows. Such tearing I don't see in windows vista.
[23:26] <nightrid3r> trapline91 i use k3b to burn
[23:26] <oCean_> trapline91: before burning, you checked the md5sum?
[23:26] <trapline91> nightrid3r, Do you think it will solve my problem?
[23:26] <wolter> temoto_, well, it was 50Hz before I think.
[23:26] <trapline91> oCean_, No
[23:26] <fearful> trapline91, what where you using before?
[23:26] <temoto_> wolter: install drivers. Refresh rate means near to nothing on LCD.
[23:26] <nightrid3r> trapline91 i've heard horror story's about brasero
[23:26] <trapline91> fearful, Brasero
[23:26] <oCean_> trapline91: well, the downloaded iso might be corrupt. Do the md5 check
[23:26] <ariqz> ah, I'l thank them by buying something! ;p
[23:26] <crdlb> wolter: 50Hz is how nvidia abusesX to communicate twinview information
[23:27] <trapline91> oCean_, alright thank you
[23:27] <wolter> temoto_, I think I have the latest for 8.10
[23:27] <fearful> trapline91, try k3b
[23:27] <trapline91> fearful, Will do, hope it solves the problem.
[23:27] <crdlb> wolter: the first monitor reports 50Hz, the second 51Hz, etc
[23:27] <trapline91> I would hate to have to redownload 9.04
[23:27] <fearful> trapline91, I doubt thats the problem, did you download it from ubuntu website?
[23:27] <C-117> how i format ubuntu 8.10
[23:28] <trapline91> fearful, yes
[23:28] <Royall> Wow, the SysInfo program really could have helped when I couldn't get my wireless working
[23:28] <rainwalker> LjL; I tried copying a 273.8 MB folder to the drive, and it paused at 76.0 MB tranferred, then 101.0 MB, then briefly at 148.8, then it finished...all in the amount of time that it took to copy an 846 MB "zero" file from /dev
[23:28] <nightrid3r> C-117 define "format"
[23:28] <fearful> trapline91, yea then its ok, try k3b if not there might be a problem
[23:28] <trapline91> fearful, But I have been reading a lot of bugs about Brasero not burnning iso correctly
[23:28] <Royall> C-117: define i
[23:28] <C-117> clear the hard drive to new installation
[23:28] <wolter> crdlb, do you have a little tearing when you move windows around?
[23:28] <fearful> trapline91, thats why try k3b
[23:28] <fearful> trapline91, sudo apt-get install k3b
[23:29] <trapline91> fearful, Don't it now :D
[23:29] <nightrid3r> C-117 gparted
[23:29] <crdlb> wolter: I don't use nvidia, but I've heard of it
[23:29] <temoto_> What is binutils-static for?
[23:29] <wolter> hm..
[23:29] <wolter> crdlb, what do you use?
[23:29] <C-117> nightride3r thanks
[23:29] <crdlb> wolter: a very old radeon
[23:29] <wolter> crdlb, does it support compiz?
[23:29] <crdlb> wolter: yes
[23:30] <wolter> crdlb, so, do you have tearing when you move windows around?
[23:30] <cr4> How do I modify "scp /path/to/file user@host:/path/to/put" because the SSH I'm transferring to isn't running on the default port
[23:30] <rww> cr4: scp -p PORTNUMBER
[23:30] <temoto_> -P
[23:31] <rww> oh, yeah, -P, not -p
[23:31] <trapline91> so whats the ubuntu 9.04 hash?
[23:31] <temoto_> Dirty bustards made ssh -p and scp -P
[23:31] <trapline91> this is what i got after running the md5sum: 073fdad444e56a42c4a18696f0129945
[23:31] <crdlb> wolter: a little bit, but that's expected with a terrible GPU running with indirect rendering
[23:32] <rww> trapline91: That's correct for Jaunty Alpha 5 Desktop i386.
[23:32] <brucedougal> hello
[23:32] <trapline91> cool
[23:32] <trapline91> so then the problem is the software
[23:32] <wolter> crdlb, i experience the worst screen tearing in metacity. Is that normal?
[23:32] <stealth-> "alias pyvent="python /home/stealth/Programming/Python/system/pyvent.py 2 49" doesnt work for me when I add it to my bashrc. When i run the command alias, I can see its found, but when I run pyvent, it tells me it cant find the file. I know its there, though :|
[23:32] <Bob_Dole> I was trying to move the firefox icon, then suddenly the top and bottom bar things vanished...what happened, and can I reset it? on XFCE, Xubuntu
[23:32] <Nalf> Hello. I have a question should anyone be available to answer it. I am running a live CD from a my external HD (booting via usb: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/live-ubuntu-810-usb-persistent-install-windows/) and the installer/running live cd seems to freeze up. How can I run the installer in text mode so I can see the error it is giving/where it is freezing up?
[23:32] <temoto_> wolter: i've actually had compiz performing way better than metacity.
[23:32] <crdlb> wolter: well, with non-compositing metacity, it has to constantly redraw
[23:33] <coreyman> wich wine program opens files
[23:33] <coreyman> .. scratch that
[23:33] <coreyman> wich wine program opens install.exe's
[23:33] <temoto_> wine
[23:33] <coreyman> ...
[23:33] <nightrid3r> coreyman wine
[23:33] <temoto_> wine itself
[23:33] <Bob_Dole> really, it is wine
[23:34] <coreyman> wine isn't opening it
[23:34] <wolter> crdlb, can i get compositing metacity?
[23:34] <temoto_> try setup.exe or setup.msi
[23:34] <Suikwan> Can anyone help me setup a DLink DWL-G520 wireless card?
[23:34] <tarfart> hi
[23:34] <trapline91> fearful, Do you think its necessary to do burn at 1x
[23:34] <sisto> Anyone installed ubuntu on a MacBook 5,2? It won't boot with acpi. I have to boot with acpi=off.
[23:34] <fearful> trapline91, why, is that the only option you have?
[23:34] <crdlb> wolter: gconf-editor /apps/metacity , there's a compositing_manager setting in there
[23:34] <tarfart> im running kubuntu intrepid.  i can't find docs on getting fglrx installed.  the only docs i find are ones for hardy and guytsy.  how am i suppposed to knwo they use the same kernel, xorg, etc.
[23:35] <trapline91> fearful, no I was just wondering since they say do burn at the lowest but I don't want to wait forever you know
[23:35] <crdlb> wolter: keep in mind that you must disable tht setting to use compiz (due to a metacity bug)
[23:35] <sisto> does anyone know a solution to that?
[23:35] <fearful> trapline91, na, I don't thinkso put it as automatic or something amongst those lines
[23:35] <trapline91> fearful, alright
[23:35] <trillex> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6867975#post6867975 if possible, please :)
[23:35] <nightrid3r> trapline91 never had problem with k3b and automatic speed
[23:36] <needhelp> Hi I have a problem with the screen. When i.e. I open any website and start to scroll, the text "hangs" and overlaps the old text, so I have to refresh again or mark the text with the mouse to be able to read it. Any fix ideas?
[23:36] <wolter> crdlb, which tht setting?
[23:36] <Bob_Dole> asdqwaf Really, though, I kinda killed XFCE in usefulness, by managing to make the taskbar thingy go away..and I don't know how I did it...I was right click-moving the firefox icon, then they just went away
[23:36] <trapline91> nightrid3r, cool hope I don't either because Brasero has been a living nightmare
[23:36] <crdlb> wolter: I meant 'that setting'
[23:36] <Bob_Dole> HOW DO I FIX THIS? ARGH
[23:36] <wolter> uh ok
[23:37] <coreyman> why will wine not open the file from firefox.
[23:37] <sexcopter> hi, i'm using this laptop (ubuntu) and have a pc with ubuntu on it along with all my music. i reckon i should be able to control the pc using this laptop and ssh to play my music, and have tried ssh -X <ip>. However when I run quodlibet (media player of my choice), it tries to associate with the filesystem on my laptop, not the filesystem on the host pc. Is there a way I can do this? ie dial into the pc and play with the files on *that* pc?
[23:37] <wolter> crdlb, i see.
[23:38] <wolter> crdlb, well, I used it and noted that now windows have a shadow, but tearing is almost the same.
[23:38] <wolter> though the redraw is so much better
[23:38] <Zeroyez> how can i set up eth0 to allow me to directly connect another computer to it, and allow the other computer to access the web server hosted on eth0's computer @ 127.0.0.1
[23:38] <Bob_Dole> I am displeased
[23:39] <wolter> crdlb, what happens if i change to compiz and that setting is on?
[23:39] <zash> sexcopter: the music needs to be accesible from where ql is running
[23:39] <zelrikriando> hello
[23:39] <zelrikriando> is there a repository to get the most recent version of pidgin?
[23:39] <crdlb> wolter: compiz fails to start because metacity doesn't correctly release the composite manager selection:)
[23:39] <wolter> oh
[23:40] <Zeroyez> i know on windows i can just directly connect them and open network connections and click status on network card and go to the 169.something ip and it works
[23:40] <wolter> crdlb, do you know if there are any plans to repair that? and, can i change that setting from the command line?
[23:40] <Bob_Dole> Screw it, wheres the install CD
[23:40] <nightrid3r> Zeroyez give both pc an ipadress in the same range and connect them on other pc use http://yourpc.ipadress
[23:40] <Bob_Dole> Reformatting the damn thing so I can actuall do something with the GUI
[23:40] <coreyman> !ohmy
[23:40] <zelrikriando> Bob_Dole: what is your problem?
[23:40] <anabolix> hey guys, anyone know how to find bluetooth devices through CLI?
[23:41] <nightrid3r> Zeroyez you have a router?
[23:41] <Bob_Dole> I was trying to move the firefox icon, then suddenly the top and bottom bar things vanished...what happened, and can I reset it? on XFCE, Xubuntu
[23:41] <needhelp> Hi I have a problem with the screen. When i.e. I open any website and start to scroll, the text "hangs" and overlaps the old text, so I have to refresh again or mark the text with the mouse to be able to read it. Any fix ideas?
[23:41] <sexcopter> zash: so if i run ql from an ssh shell i initiated on this laptop, and the host is the pc, where would you say ql is running?
[23:41] <Zeroyez> i'd rather not use the router, it is limited to 4 MB/s transfer speed - direct cable connection i can get up to 80 MB/s
[23:41] <hubertb> hey guys, is there a new connection-issue with pidgen and icq on 8.10? it says "client version is to old, please upgrade"
[23:41] <zelrikriando> I dont know about Xubuntu
[23:41] <coreyman> where does firefox store its downloads
[23:41] <sisto> Anyone installed ubuntu on a MacBook 5,2? It won't boot with acpi. I have to boot with acpi=off. That leads to me not being able to change LCD brightness or see battery status. this model was launched on january 2009, should I file a bug report?
[23:42] <Zeroyez> coreyman: mine stores on ~/Desktop by default
[23:42] <nightrid3r> Zeroyez it's going to be very hard to do
[23:42] <zash> sexcopter: if you ssh to another computer and run ql there, it runs on the other computre
[23:42] <Bob_Dole> well, time to format a good 4-5 hours worth of work
[23:42] <gidna> It is correct  ln -s Builder.exe /home/gidna/Desktop/
[23:42] <gidna>  ?
[23:42] <nibsa1242b> what would cause sound drivers to stop working properly? I've tried pulseaudio and ALSA, everything is configured correct. hardware is connected, but there is no sound. I think its a driver / module problem
[23:43] <gidna> It generates a broken link when I do that
[23:43] <Suikwan> Can anyone help me setup a DLink DWL-G520 wireless card?
[23:43] <sisto> anyone pls?
[23:43] <coreyman> zeroyez well thats odd, that means my ~/Desktop isn't being shown on my desktop
[23:44] <sexcopter> zash: that's what i thought, and it just forwards X to this laptop. so i can't understand why things like "file -> open" lead to the local filesystem on my laptop, and not the filesystem where it is running (on the pc)
[23:44] <trapline91> fearful, any idea what it means when k3b says Error: Cdrecord has no permission to open the device
[23:44] <zash> sexcopter: thats weird
[23:44] <sexcopter> zash: going to try anothe rprogram
[23:44] <oCean_> Bob_Dole: on xfce right, and removed panel?
[23:44] <Bob_Dole> Yeah
[23:45] <fearful> trapline91, um I'm guessing you need to change the permissions to /media/cdrom0 but I could be mistaken I don't use k3b
[23:45] <zash> sexcopter: i know that trying to ssh -X firefox redirects it somehow and runns firefox on your local system
[23:45] <zash> sexcopter: might be something similar
[23:45] <Bob_Dole> oCean_: Yeah
[23:45] <tarfart> how do i install fglrx on intrepid ?
[23:45] <oCean_> Bob_Dole: is xfce-panel running? "ps axuw | grep xfce4-panel"
[23:45] <coreyman>  /home/coreyman/.wine is not owned by you how do i become owner
[23:45] <Bob_Dole> I've already stuck the xubuntu install disk in and restarted it :x
[23:45] <sexcopter> zash: must be the case, because i'm trying vlc and browsing the fs on the pc... wow, that's odd!
[23:45] <fearful> trapline91, if so sudo chmod -R 755 /media/cdrom0
[23:45] <nightrid3r> coreyman man chown
[23:46] <wolter> people, my man crdlb is the best helper here.
[23:46] <jrib> coreyman: did you run wine with sudo or something?
[23:46] <Bob_Dole> Not installing yet, though
[23:46] <oCean_> Bob_Dole: one final try?
[23:46] <needhelp> Hi I have a problem with the screen. When i.e. I open any website and start to scroll, the text "hangs" and overlaps the old text, so I have to refresh again or mark the text with the mouse to be able to read it. Any fix ideas?
[23:46] <coreyman> jrib yea
[23:46] <mikewu> sexcopter: X forwarding does not forward sound.
[23:46] <jrib> trapline91: paste the output of the command « groups »
[23:46] <oCean_> Bob_Dole: remove ~/.config/xfce4/panel and restart xfce4-panel
[23:46] <jrib> coreyman: well, you shouldn't do that...
[23:46] <coreyman> jrib well, ok.
[23:46] <Zeroyez> well, i'll use my router - if i place something in apache2's www folder, it says that it doesn't exist when i try to download it
[23:46] <trapline91> jrib, coty adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare
[23:46] <zash> sexcopter: i know that should work, because i did exactly that a while ago
[23:46] <jrib> coreyman: sudo chown -R $USER: ~/.wine/
[23:46] <Bob_Dole> I'll try that, thanks.
[23:46] <sexcopter> mikewu: that's ok, i want the sound to play on the host pc. you have to understand, i'm being cripplingly lazy and using this laptop as a remote control :)
[23:46] <gidna> I need to create a symbolik link..
[23:47] <gidna> or an Icon of a program..
[23:47] <zash> sexcopter: but now i have my music on a external hdd, and just forward the audio to another computer with pulseaudio
[23:47] <coreyman> Warning: could not find DOS drive for current working directory '/home/coreyman/Desktop', starting in the Windows directory.
[23:47] <coreyman> wine: could not load L"C:\\windows\\system32\\npp.5.2.installer.exe": Module not found
[23:47] <filsuf> test
[23:47] <coreyman> wtf
[23:47] <gidna> ln -s target link_name
[23:47] <gidna>  I do this but the link is broken
[23:48] <sexcopter> zash: pulseaudio can do that? that's neat. doesn't quite fit my situation, but neat nonetheless
[23:48] <baz> i have a network attached storage device on my lan and when I play a movie from using samba it works nice but if I try to play the same movie through a CIFS mount, it hiccups every few seconds like its buffering - is it known that samba is better than cifs for a continuous stream of data?
[23:48] <zash> sexcopter: http://pix.zash.se/i/w7.png
[23:48] <m3gaman> could anyone recommend an ftp server for ubuntu?
[23:48] <coreyman> m3gaman filezilla?
[23:48] <m3gaman> just looking for something nice and basic
[23:48] <mikewu> sexcopter: if that doesn't work, you might consider mpd. There is one host computer, and then you can connect with clients to control the host
[23:48] <m3gaman> I thought that was just a client
[23:48] <m3gaman> it's a server as well?
[23:48] <nightrid3r> m3gaman vsftpd or proftpd
[23:48] <jrib> trapline91: and « ls -ld $(readlink -f /dev/cdrom) »?
[23:49] <coreyman> m3gaman filezilla has a server
[23:49] <zash> sexcopter: if you just ssh -X theothercomputer, and run quodlibet manualy from there
[23:49] <m3gaman> coreyman: awesome I will have to check that out...thanks
[23:49] <zash> sexcopter: what output do you get
[23:49] <m3gaman> nightrid3r: thanks as well, I will take a look at those 2 options as well
[23:49] <zash> sexcopter: also, check what processes are runnig on both computers after that
[23:49] <jrib> !ftpd | m3gaman
[23:50] <tarfart> where is the Restricted Drivers Manager ?
[23:50] <m3gaman> jrib: thanks...now I have lots of reading up to do..haha
[23:50] <jrib> tarfart: what version of ubuntu?
[23:50] <Zeroyez> does anyone know how to change your ident on pidgin? >.>
[23:50] <tarfart> jrib: intrepid
[23:50] <fosco_> tarfart: menu system -admin
[23:50] <jrib> m3gaman: help.ubuntu.com server guide walks you through one of them
[23:51] <m3gaman> jrib: even better...thanks for the hand...
[23:51] <Nalf> Ok, so I don't have any blank cds and I want to install Ubuntu to my desktop (dual boot with windows vista). I do have an external hard-drive I can boot from. I am also willing to do a net install, but all I have is a USB wireless adapter (I'm not sure if it's supported or not). What do you guys think would be the best course of action?
[23:51] <tarfart> thanx folks
[23:51] <jrib> !install > Nalf
[23:52] <nibsa1242b> how can I get pulse audio to list individual devices? when I change to ALSA audio it shows many devices including channels and IEC 958. With pulse, I get main (playback) and capture only.
[23:53] <jrib> nibsa1242b: I probably don't know but: list *where*?
[23:53] <nibsa1242b> jrib: sry, in alsamixer
[23:54] <Bob_Dole> oCean_: could, I uhh, perhaps get that location again?
[23:55] <Nalf> Jrib, I used UNetbootin, but when it came up with the bootmanager all the characters were illegible. Any idea on that?
[23:55] <jrib> Nalf: nope
[23:55] <jrib> Nalf: you checked the cd for defects?
[23:55] <oCean_> Bob_Dole: remove ~/.config/xfce4/panel
[23:55] <Nalf> It's a downloaded image, and yes, I checked.
[23:55] <Bob_Dole> thank you
[23:55] <oCean_> Bob_Dole: then killall xfce4-panel
[23:55] <Zeroyez> how do i give apache2 permissions to a file in the www directory (going to it using http gives 404)
[23:55] <nibsa1242b> how can I set something ( IEC 958 ) volume to a higher level if its not listed in ALSA mixer
[23:56] <jrib> nibsa1242b: « alsamixer -Dhw:0 » do anything for you?
[23:56] <taso>  hey guys, Ubuntu acts _extremely_ slow in VMWare as a guest, any clue on how to resolve this?  I gave it 2GB of memory and still nothing .... any clue on what to do in this situation? is this common?  Ubuntu 8.10, VMWare 6+
[23:57] <nibsa1242b> jrib: I dunno, I'd have to undo about 20min of things just to find out. I can use it now, but I'm using ALSA not pulse. I'm trying to suggest to someone else with same hardware that wants to try to keep pulse.
[23:57] <Dillizar> can anybody tell me how to install nvidia drivers i have just installed 8.04
[23:57] <nibsa1242b> taso: what is your host?
[23:57] <taso> Win XP
[23:57] <Shii> hey guys, when's 9.04 coming out?
[23:57] <jrib> nibsa1242b: see comments in https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/274884
[23:57] <Shii> a rough estimate is fine
[23:57] <fearful> !jaunty | shii
[23:57] <nibsa1242b> jrib: tnx
[23:58] <Shii> thanks
[23:58] <taso> nibsa1242b: I've been Google'ing around with not much luck
[23:58] <Nalf> Does anyone have experience using an external HD to install ubuntu to their machine?
[23:58] <nibsa1242b> tsao with regards to?
[23:59] <nibsa1242b> taso: with regards to
[23:59] <taso> nibsa1242b the slow performance?
[23:59] <nibsa1242b> taso: slow performance of what?
[23:59] <taso> the entire OS
[23:59] <taso> mostly GUI stuff
[23:59] <taso> but it seems everything really
[23:59] <nibsa1242b> Nalf: I've done a net install & a usb flash drive  and hd install
