[00:00] <Ko12upt3d> thanks kitche
[00:00] <fccf> !info ld
[00:00] <yaris1234567891> hey guys im doing dual boot. how do i access ubuntu files on vista ? where is it ?
[00:00] <greg__> sudo modprobe -r rt2860sta says it's in use
[00:00] <DasEi> !usb | orudie
[00:00] <Oven1> FCCF I run the nvidia-settings.  The display resolution that I want is not available.  It is not detecting the monitor properly
[00:01] <brummbaer> yaris, you've gotta install an app to make ext3 (or whatever format you used) accessible from windows, as typically windows doesn't support anything but itself.
[00:01] <fccf> Oven1: are you running nvidia-settings as root?
[00:01] <greg__> dasei - should i add it to my blacklist and reboot and see what happens?
[00:01] <DasEi> greg__: nice , so use that to blacklist
[00:01] <onyx> maxbaldwin: thx man that looks like something I was searching, does it compile C++
[00:01] <greg__> ok
[00:01] <Oven1> I ran Sudo
[00:01] <greg__> right done that so away to go restart
[00:01] <DasEi> greg__: yup
[00:01] <brummbaer> explore2fs has always worked well for me.
[00:01] <fccf> Oven1: there is a custom binary being used by xrandr ... I am not sure how this is working ....
[00:01] <maxbaldwin> onyx, compiles anything you want. :)
[00:01] <Gustavo> Mouse and keyboard don't work in GDM. Any suggestions?
[00:02] <onyx> ok thx
[00:02] <lstarnes> onyx: g++ actually does the compiling, but many IDEs use g++ for compiling c++ code
[00:02] <Oven1> Where do you see that?
[00:02] <Crybaby> is dropbox in the ubuntu repos?
[00:02] <Crybaby> !dropbox
[00:02] <fccf> Oven1: sorry. that is commented .. line 30
[00:02] <yaris1234567891> brummbaer: thx
[00:03] <Oven1> Oh yeah.. That was me.  I was trying something
[00:03] <Crybaby> is install dropbox from here safe?  http://www.getdropbox.com/downloading?os=lnx
[00:03] <Oven1> I manually changed my EDID file with a hex editor.  It did not work
[00:03] <fccf> Crybaby: that should work ... just get the right version
[00:04] <Crybaby> fccf: thanks
[00:04] <Oven1> It is all coming down to my monitor being detected incorrectly.  If I could tell it the correct monitor or pass it the correct settings then I would be OK.  The EDID stuff I changed is documented here:  http://blog.freshnewpage.com/2008/04/26/nvidia-geforce4-420-go-on-ubuntu-804-hardy-heron/#comment-406
[00:04] <brummbaer> yaris, anytime. classic windows behaviour. bet you've got no prob accessing the win partition from Ubuntu though right?
[00:04] <robuntu> ﻿hey whats the command (ether to append to fstab or chmod,etc) to change the ownership of a ext3 partition?
[00:04] <fccf> Oven1: reccommend installing nvidia-glx-new & ubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:05] <yaris1234567891> brummbaer: correct.
[00:05] <yaris1234567891> brummbaer: i want to give ubuntu more hd space. i tried gparted. however, i cannt resize any partition
[00:05] <Oven1> I will give that a try.  I need to run.  Thanks for the help FCCF.  I will let you know how it goes.
[00:05] <sonne> how can I add a user to the system that only have terminal access (no graphical session) and some limitations on home folder?
[00:05] <fccf> Oven1: then re-running sudo nvidia-settings
[00:05] <onyx> lstarnes: yeah tried g++ in terminal but I need the app in few hours so don't have the time to look around how it works xD
[00:05] <fccf> Oven1: later - btw - I am here alot
[00:06] <brummbaer> yaris, gparted doesn't currently support resizing LVM, this'll probably have to be done by hand.
[00:06] <brummbaer> there's some great tutorials online.
[00:06] <sonne> how can I add a user to the system that only have terminal access (no graphical session) and some limitations on home folder?
[00:07] <brummbaer> yaris, you should be able to resize the win partition using gparted, but expanding the ubuntu partition won't go through gparted.
[00:07] <hh666> Vista rocks my box
[00:07] <fccf> hh666: thats totally offtopic
[00:07] <schnauzer_> hh666, shame on you
[00:08] <onyx> yeah geany helped
[00:08] <fccf> !repeat | sonne
[00:09] <sonne> fccf: ok! I didn't know the rules here :D
[00:09] <fccf> !guidelines > sonne
[00:10] <yaris1234567891> brummbaer: ah ok
[00:11] <sonne> :D funny bots!
[00:11] <dacorr> sonne: your not going to be able to have all but one user running xserver as it starts automatically, unless you want other users to have to login in terminal and startx manually.
[00:11] <fccf> sonne: we love our bots
[00:12] <sonne> fccf: I'm starting to love them
[00:12] <mdg> anyone here us OpenOffice Writer -I have off-topic question
[00:12] <mdg> us/use
[00:12] <kazagistar> !ask | mdg
[00:13] <mdg> kazagistar: Its off-topic about Writer
[00:13] <emmy> mdg: i use it but im no expert. I use it casually.
[00:13] <mdg> emmy: Can we go private?
[00:13] <RORgasm> hey guys
[00:13] <emmy> sure
[00:14] <sonne> dacorr: I'm a developer (Java) with limited Unix knowledge. I must provide a library for connecting to a samba server. Unfortunately I have to do the whole Unix management thing.
[00:14] <RORgasm> i plugged in my creative zen...it says its docked...and it pops up on gnautilus...when i clcik open rhythimbox music player for my creative zen it opens rhythmbox but how do i play the songs on my zen form rhythmbox?
[00:14] <ecryptVictim> fucking ubuntu!!!!
[00:14] <iceroot> how to stop gnome-terminal aksing if i want to exit the terminal if a process is still running (like top)
[00:15] <sonne> dacorr: As I learned samba, I realised that I can share each user's home folder. But I don't think I need all this fancy home folders with all folders and scripts
[00:15] <mneptok> sonne: wrong channel. try #samba
[00:15] <sonne> mneptok: Thanks!
[00:16] <RORgasm> anyone know how to play music from an mtp device (ie creative zen) from rhythmbox?
[00:16] <AakashPatel> hey...anyone know what package includes /usr/include/glew.h?
[00:16] <RORgasm> my device is being recognized by ubuntu immidialetly as i plug in and it tells me i can open it with rhythbox...but when i click on rhythmbox there is nothing
[00:17] <divXjunk> RORgasm: you should check the rhythmbox site for a plugin for your device
[00:17] <iceroot> AakashPatel: use apt-file
[00:17] <dapimp53> I just recently noticed that my email server is not working correctly. I tracked it down to Amavis not starting properly. When I try to start it I get this error Starting amavisd: Can't read /dev/null  [Permission denied] at /usr/share/perl5/Net/Server.pm line 284.
[00:17] <RORgasm> divXjunk, k
[00:17] <fccf> RORgasm: what is on your device ... is it ipod?
[00:17] <iceroot> AakashPatel: sudo apt-file search glew.h
[00:17] <divXjunk> he has a zen
[00:18] <dapimp53> line 284 is  open(STDIN,  '</dev/null') || die "Can't read /dev/null  [$!]";
[00:18] <RORgasm> fccf, no its a creative zen vision m
[00:18] <AakashPatel> iceroot: apt-file isnt found as a command... :/
[00:19] <iceroot> AakashPatel: then you have to install apt-file with sudo apt-get install apt-file and then you have to create the list for apt-file with sudo apt-file update
[00:19] <kazagistar> RORgasm: check out this bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/rhythmbox/+bug/348287
[00:19] <greg__> desti - still same
[00:19] <AakashPatel> oh okay
[00:19] <iceroot> AakashPatel: apt-file is a useful tool so i think its a good idea to have it installed
[00:19] <greg__> WARNING: /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist line 1: ignoring bad line starting with 'rt2860sta'
[00:19] <greg__> why would it ignore?
[00:21] <fccf> RORgasm: look in Places ... it might show up there
[00:21] <AssociateX> Hello all
[00:21] <greg__> desti - any ideas?
[00:21] <RORgasm> fccf, it is in places i see it there
[00:21] <dapimp53> I just recently noticed that my email server is not working correctly. I tracked it down to Amavis not starting properly. When I try to start it I get this error Starting amavisd: Can't read /dev/null  [Permission denied] at /usr/share/perl5/Net/Server.pm line 284.
[00:21] <RORgasm> fccf, i just want to be able rhythmbox to detect but i think i know how to now
[00:22] <fccf> RORgasm:  I found this http://www.ehow.com/how_5012085_sync-creative-zen-using-ubuntu.html
[00:22] <AssociateX> is ext4 well supported and bug free at this point? I'm installing right now and didn't even know it was available
[00:22] <iceroot> dapimp53: try #postfix  its maybe a better place for such a specific program
[00:22] <iceroot> AssociateX: nothing is bug-free
[00:22] <boss_mc> greg__: is there a new line after the last line of the file?
[00:22] <RORgasm> fccf, yeah thats using gnomad2... i want to use rhythmbox though...but i think i found a solution...thanx
[00:23] <AssociateX> iceroot: is it still beta?
[00:23] <robuntu> ﻿hey whats the command (ether to append to fstab or chmod,etc) to change the ownership of a ext3 partition?
[00:23] <AssociateX> is ext4 out of it's beta stage yet?
[00:23] <iceroot> AssociateX: no but not testet a long time
[00:23] <greg__> nope
[00:23] <AssociateX> iceroot: what?
[00:23] <Gourlis> Can I have Ubuntu 9.04 NEW THEMES on Ubuntu 8.10 please ?
[00:24] <onyx> timed shutdown like shutdown -s -t 360 -c on win
[00:24] <fccf> Gourlis: check out gnome-look.org .. they are compatible with the version of gnome - not necessairly ubuntu
[00:24] <AakashPatel> thanks iceroot i found it :D
[00:24] <iceroot> AakashPatel: :)
[00:25] <iceroot> AssociateX: ext4 is not beta anymore, but ext3 is working for a long time and so its more stable then ext4 (imo)
[00:25] <sam555> when upgrading from 8.04 to 9.04, are there any major changes that would affect mysql?
[00:26] <sam555> would I need to reinstall mysql and our databases?
[00:26] <iceroot> sam555: no but of course you have to make a backup
[00:26] <sam555> iceroot: indeed!
[00:26] <hh666> Using backups is advisable
[00:26] <fccf> onyx: see man shutdown
[00:26] <hh666> Without that God is how do you know
[00:27] <onyx> fccf: man sorry for wasting your time I didn't notice that I was writing in here
[00:27] <Gourlis> fccf, thanks bro
[00:27] <robuntu> ﻿hey whats the command (ether to append to fstab or chmod,etc) to change the ownership of a ext3 partition?
[00:28] <hh666> QQQQQ
[00:28] <fccf> Gourlis: np
[00:29] <fccf> onyx: oh great terminally confused

[00:30] <bones> what does !ubuntu | bones do?
[00:31] <LjL> !bot | bones
[00:31] <bones> lol
[00:31] <fccf> bones: tells ubottu the bot to tell you about ubuntu

[00:34] <LjL> Piet: your abilities cause me awe, holmes.
[00:34] <Piet> LjL: my pleasure
[00:35] <sam555> can one upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 using a 9.04 live cd?
[00:35] <bones_> lol - the .ddos_flood thing was a joke lol
[00:35] <bones_> as if i would be  a scriptkiddie
[00:35] <darlek> !lol
[00:35] <bones_> :_)
[00:35] <``y7> in order to enable jumbo frames in ubuntu, all i have to do is add in the line "mtu 9000" under the nic i want to allow it on under /etc/network/interfaces and it'll enable it?
[00:36] <Paddy_EIRE> sam555: no.. you can only do that using the "alternate" cd
[00:36] <Paddy_EIRE> !upgrade | sam555
[00:36] <bones_> !kick me
[00:36] <sam555> Paddy_EIRE: thanks
[00:37] <Paddy_EIRE> sam555: no probs
[00:37] <LjL> !botabuse | bones_
[00:37] <Flannel> sam555: You can also upgrade through the internet, of course.  But the only CD method is the alternate/server CD (or DVD, although that seems like overkill)
[00:38] <sam555> Flannel: I'm currently upgrading via the internet, but it was taking a it bit and I have another computer to upgrade
[00:38] <Paddy_EIRE> Flannel: true.. I was wondering if there was a mixed architecture installation dvd yet.. with both x86 and x86_64?
[00:40] <Flannel> Paddy_EIRE: Not that I'm aware of no.
[00:40] <Paddy_EIRE> Okay.. Must have a google about
[00:41] <Flannel> sam555: with a few computers on a home network, you might be better off (if one's always on, especially) setting up a cache of packages.  So you only download them from the internet once, then the other computers grab them from that computer.
[00:41] <Piet> Paddy_EIRE: don't think so. i think this exists for debian so far..
[00:41] <sam555> Flannel: is it possible to do that right now if I've already started the process with one?
[00:41] <Piet> ^only
[00:42] <Paddy_EIRE> Piet: ah I see.. thanks
[00:42] <Flannel> sam555: You could stop the process.  If it's just downloading packgaes, it won't hurt anything.
[00:43] <Piet> Paddy_EIRE: but it basically comes down to the same thing in terms of data to download. you download all packages twice.
[00:43] <sam555> Flannel: or should i download the alt cd for 8.10 and 9.04?
[00:43] <sam555> Flannel: currently I'm in the processes of upgrading from 8.04 to 8.10 and it's going from 1 to 10 hours as far as when it will be completed
[00:43] <Flannel> sam555: Actually, this howto says we can copy them to the cache after the fact.  So, I suppose you don't have to stop it at all.
[00:43] <sam555> Flannel: oooh, show me the link!
[00:44] <Paddy_EIRE> Flannel: that sounds interesting.. can I see that howto?
[00:44] <Flannel> sam555: http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-set-up-a-repository-cache-with-apt-cacher
[00:44] <Paddy_EIRE> cool
[00:44] <Flannel> Apparently apt-cacher has a migration tool
[00:45] <Piet> yes, use apt-cache or squid, the other proxies are not recommandable
[00:45] <sam555> i'm wondering if I should then download the alt iso for 9.04 after this process
[00:45] <Piet> apt-cacheR
[00:45] <Ketreva> hi.
[00:45] <Flannel> sam555: It won't save you any bandwidth (it'll actually use a bit more)
[00:46] <sam555> Flannel: aww
[00:46] <fccf> !hi |Ketreva
[00:46] <Flannel> sam555: the only benefit is if you go around to multiple computers with it, and if you set up the cacher, that's moot.
[00:46] <Ketreva> I need help with wicd?
[00:46] <sam555> Flannel: indeed
[00:46] <Flannel> sam555: the issue with the alternate CD (well, not an issue, just the way it works) is that it's the packages that were released with 9.04.  So all the updates afterwards still have to be downloaded.  When upgrading from the internet, you're already downloading those updates.
[00:46] <Gustavo> My mouse and keyboard are not working in GDM. Any suggestions?
[00:47] <fccf> Ketreva: please explain whats going on ... all on one line .. so we can think about your problem
[00:47] <Piet> Ketreva: are you asking us whether you need help with wicd?
[00:47] <linxeh> Flannel: so do a network install
[00:47] <sam555> Flannel: i see
[00:47] <wildguy> #trois-rivieres
[00:47] <Flannel> sam555: Also, the alternate CD has lots of packages in its repository you may not use.  Your upgrade only may use 400MB or packages (or whatever), but it may have 100MB of stuff that isn't on the Alt CD.
[00:47] <Ketreva> i cant connect to wifi, well i can steal my neighbors open wifi connection but i cant connect to my secured connection.
[00:47] <Flannel> linxeh: Not installing, upgrading.
[00:48] <linxeh> oh my bad
[00:48] <sam555> Flannel: gotcha
[00:48] <linxeh> I should learn to read properly
[00:48] <fccf> Ketreva: what type of encryption are you using on your router?
[00:48] <Flannel> sam555: So you'd still be downloading 700 + 100, instead of 300+100 (I really don't know what the numbers are)
[00:48] <Ketreva> wpa
[00:49] <kartawirya> @Gustavo: If mouse does not work on GDM, that indicate X server did not detect the mouse...
[00:49] <ralmar> Hey guys can I use ddr2 1066 ram on a  motherboard that supports up to ddr2 800? will it work fine,  just that at 800 speeds? Thanks
[00:49] <fccf> Ketreva: wpa is in it's infancy on ubuntu -- you might try using a WEP key
[00:50] <kartawirya> @ralmar: you will get your PC hang up...
[00:50] <Gustavo> kartawirya, I tried messing with the xorg.conf file ... If I do a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg , it removes any reference to a mouse input device (supposedly, HAL is supposed to take care of this?)
[00:50] <orudie> hi. which program do i use to burn .img file in vista 64 ?
[00:50] <blind|melon|chit> fccf: wpa isn't well supported? WEP is almost totally insecure, that would kind of defeat the purpose :>
[00:51] <blind|melon|chit> I didn't realize that wireless in Ubuntu was still -that- far behind, I was hoping to use it on my laptop
[00:51] <jimcooncat> orudie: what does that have to do with ubuntu, please?
[00:51] <orudie> jimcooncat, ubuntu-9.04-netbook-remix-i386.img
[00:51] <sam555> Flannel: but i understand
[00:51] <sam555> Flannel: i'm gonna set up the repository
[00:52] <kartawirya> @Gustavo: restart you Linux, go to single user mode and choose the option like "try to fix X server"
[00:52] <Gustavo> I booted the kernel in "recovery mode" and tried that to no avail.
[00:53] <kartawirya> @orudie: You should get "Nero" CD burner version 6 or later...
[00:53] <Jutman> Anyone have any idea why ubuntu hangs whenever an "Open File..." dialog comes up?
[00:53] <orudie> nero isnt free
[00:53] <fccf> orudie: see this page ... gives link to working vista alt
[00:54] <fccf> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromImgFiles
[00:54] <kartawirya> @Jutman: sorry if this is just o
[00:54] <Jutman> @ kartawirya what?
[00:54] <jimcooncat> orudie: the Win32 Disk imager doesn't do it under win64?
[00:54] <kartawirya> @Jutman: sorry if this is just a possibility that your root partition may contain error...
[00:55] <linxeh> orudie: http://www.imgburn.com/ ?
[00:55] <Ketreva> and on an unrelated note can someone help me with kmouth? i type stuff in, but it doesnt say them.
[00:55] <Jutman> @ kartawirya -- possibly. but it doesn't do it until about an hour after a reboot.
[00:56] <orudie> just started disk imager 32 using vista 64, it gives error at start but it seems to work
[00:56] <orudie> burning to flash drive right now
[00:56] <orudie> 5.5 mb/ s
[00:56] <zorzar> hey i'm on a lenovo x61t with ubuntu 9.04 is there a way to really shut bluetooth off except doing it in the bios=
[00:56] <orudie> i hope i can install from flash drive on my old computer
[00:57] <philsf> I installed the netbook remix meta package for testing in my laptop, and now every application I open starts maximized, even on a new test account. How can I revert this?
[00:57] <kartawirya> @Jutman: that is... error on EXT2/3/4 linux often raise with such indication...
[00:57] <buttons840> can someone help me configure a static ip address on ubuntu server, I have edited the interface config file, but I don't know what values to put in for "gateway" and "network," also, i see talk of name servers, but i don't know how to determin the ip address of my name server.
[00:57] <orudie> In bios i see an option 'Bootable Add-in Cards" is does that reffer to USB flash drive or no ?
[00:58] <Jutman> kartawirya-- ok. I'm running ext3, I'll have to do an fsck. I had an idea it might be that, but I was not sure.
[00:58] <fccf> orudie: probably... you will need to safely remove and see if it boots
[00:59] <jimcooncat> orudie: if that doesn't work, maybe you can netboot it. That takes a good amount of setup, but if you're doing 3 or 4 computers it's worth it. Don't know particulars about netbooks, but I hope it works as I'll be getting one soon.
[00:59] <kartawirya> @Jutman: do am I Jutman, just try and good luck...
[00:59] <Piet> buttons840: run 'sudo ifconfig', it will tell you about the gateway, and that can be used to determine the network.
[00:59] <orudie> here it comes ....
[00:59] <Jutman> thanks kartawirya , I'm gonna check that right now. I'll be back :P
[00:59] <orudie> yes !!!!
[00:59] <Piet> buttons840: to determine the nameserver, run: cat /etc/resolve.conf
[01:00] <fccf> orudie: success?
[01:00] <orudie> yup installing netbook remix on a desktop computer :P
[01:00] <brianski> why is totem's performance so much worse than mplayer? am i the only one?
[01:00] <orudie> from flash drive :)
[01:00] <fccf> orudie: with no cdrom - cool
[01:01] <brianski> orudie: why are you doing that?
[01:01] <jimcooncat> congrats orudie
[01:01] <fccf> brianski: they use different drivers ... he doesn't have a cdrom in the desktop
[01:01] <norman_> hello
[01:01] <buttons840> Piet, ifconfig says nothing about gateway
[01:01] <kartawirya> @bianski: Totem do seem uses to many system resources until sometime that is hang up...
[01:01] <zorzar> i tried netbook remix the other day on my girlfriends eepc but the mouse wouldn't work
[01:01] <fccf> !hi | norman
[01:01] <orudie> i do have a cd rom
[01:01] <Gustavo> I fear I may have done something to mess up the HAL or X server in Ubuntu. Is there a relatively painless way to restore everything to a "default " ?
[01:01] <brianski> fccf: yeah but you can convert a standard ubuntu iso into a bootable usb stick just fine
[01:02] <tag> I have an 8 core machine, but ubuntu only seems to be using 4 of them.
[01:02] <CleanLaundry> is there an easy way to add an external second monitor to my laptop?
[01:02] <brianski> which is handy because it installs ubuntu-desktop instead of the ubuntu netbook remix gui (which i detest, i have ubuntu-desktop on a lpia netbook)
[01:02] <fccf> tag: are you running 64 bit
[01:02] <ha1331_> any idea why my <> and §½ have changed places?
[01:02] <tonsofpcs> tag: cat /proc/cpuinfo ?
[01:02] <ha1331_> on keyboard I mean
[01:02] <brianski> CleanLaundry: do you have video out?
[01:02] <tag> fccf: no
[01:03] <Piet> buttons840: you'Re right, do this: sudo route -n
[01:03] <tonsofpcs> or what fccf is about to say :)
[01:03] <CleanLaundry> no no, sorry, ACTUALLY I want to use my laptop screen AS the second monitor for my desktop. brianski
[01:03] <tag> fccf: do I need to run 64 bit for an 8 core machine?
[01:03] <Piet> buttons840: the entry which follows the 0.0.0.0 is your gateway
[01:03] <orudie> nice, i wish i had a static ip
[01:03] <brianski> CleanLaundry: ah! i think there is some proprietary software that does that
[01:03] <fccf> tag: run 64bit to allow you to use the power of your 8 processors together
[01:04] <tag> Crap
[01:04] <brianski> it also works on linux/mac/ubuntu. just can't remember the name or if it's free as in beer or not
[01:04] <tag> but not everything works on 64 bit :-/
[01:04] <CleanLaundry> brianski, hmm, really? I was hoping there would be some open source alternatives
[01:04] <buttons840> Piet, it is the address of my router, is a router a gateway i suppose?
[01:04] <jimcooncat> tag, you'll want it if you run more than 3 Gib memory anyway
[01:04] <brianski> tag: what doesn't wqork on 64 bit?
[01:04] <fccf> tag: true .. you might consider using the 8.04 version .. a little more mature
[01:04] <Piet> buttons840: yup
[01:04] <buttons840> Piet, what value will i put in "network"
[01:04] <Gustavo> I fear I may have done something to mess up the HAL or X server in Ubuntu in order to try to fix my mouse and keyboard in GDM. Is there a relatively painless way to restore everything to a "default " ?
[01:05] <``y7> guys, when i try to set mtu 9000 in /etc/network/interfaces and bring down eth1 and start back up eth1, i get this error msg: "SIOCSIFMTU: Invalid argument" and then on the next line: "failed to bring up eth1." any ideas on what's going wrong and where?
[01:05] <Ko12upt3d> please help me set up my nvidia geforce 8m graphics card my repo is telling me there isnt a kernel that supports the driver. maybe they are diffrent repos i can add to my system
[01:05] <Piet> buttons840: i think it's optional. i'd normally prefer to put a netmask instead.
[01:05] <Ko12upt3d> !repo
[01:05] <buttons840> ic
[01:05] <buttons840> Piet, thank you, let me see what i can do
[01:06] <brianski> ``y7: can you pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces? you might have goten the syntax wrong. alternately your driver doesn't like the mtu you have set
[01:06] <orudie> i think installing from a flash drive is much faster than installing from a cd
[01:06] <Piet> buttons840: if this is your home LAN, you can put the first three octetcs of your ip address, followed by .255 for 'network'
[01:06] <tag> Suck, I'll have to reinstall it seems
[01:06] <orudie> its at 50 % already
[01:06] <Piet> buttons840: normally, when you are supposed to use static ip addresses, your ISP would tell you the values you need to put there.  so make sure this is actually what you want/are supposed to do.
[01:06] <fccf> orudie: took 15min total the other day on a dell mini 9

[01:07] <Sylphid> hey all, got a problem on a new jaunty install.... nautilus is seg faulting.. any ideas what would cause this?
[01:07] <orudie> 70%
[01:07] <kartawirya> @Gustavo: if HAL was brooken, the first think I do is abaout reinstall it...
[01:07] <tag> I suppose for now I could live with the 4 core setup, it's not exactly slow. ;-)
[01:07] <tag> seems really lame though
[01:07] <CleanLaundry> brianski, also, I have a Mini KVM Switch
[01:07] <jimcooncat> hate it when people don't stick around for an answer
[01:07] <brianski> ``y7: yeah it sounds like your driver doesn't like that mtu
[01:07] <orudie> tag, how did you get 8 cores?
[01:07] <Piet> buttons840: using a static networking setup can be problematic if the ISP changes things out of the sudden, and you can't access the internet to learn what has been  changed.
[01:07] <brianski> not all gigE cards support jumbo frames
[01:08] <Gustavo> kartawirya, any pointers as to how I would do that?
[01:08] <``y7> brianski: how do i figure out which mtu my driver would like?
[01:08] <brianski> ``y7: any dmesg output?
[01:08] <tag> orudie: I think it's 2 4 core CPUs
[01:08] <brianski> dmesg | tail ?
[01:08] <hh666> Real action is not acquired for many reasons this includes many people factory
[01:08] <``y7> brianski: i don't know what dmesg output is
[01:08] <fccf> tag: I bought a core2duo for a reason ... well 2 reasons.. 1 everything works (even my 4gig ram) 2 it is really fast
[01:08] <tag> I have a core2duo laptop as well (also running 32 bit)
[01:08] <``y7> brianski: do i need to do that when the mtu is set to 9000 or anytime is good? i had to delete that mtu out so i could reconnect to the internet.
[01:08] <brianski> ``y7: just run dmesg | tail and look if there is anything about eth0 in there
[01:09] <tag> It's nice
[01:09] <brianski> ``y7: also not all switches support jumbo frames
[01:09] <buttons840> Piet, it appears to be working, you have been talking about the gateway?  you say the gateway should be the same as my external ip address with a .255 at the end? currently i have 255.255.255.0 as gateway and it's working
[01:09] <orudie> it would be nice if ubuntu installation did not require a restart
[01:10] <orudie> install and ready to go lol
[01:10] <Siesta> Hi, I want to use VMware to run Ubuntu, How would I get the latest ubuntu iso running?
[01:10] <brianski> orudie: then you'd need to use the same installed kernel as the one you use to boot with
[01:10] <brianski> and add some kernel support as well
[01:10] <jimcooncat> buttons840: that would be one weird system. you don't mean 255.255.255.0 is your netmask, and your gateway is something else?
[01:10] <``y7> brianski: http://www.grabup.com/uploads/26000922061520093720E710D812.png?direct
[01:10] <fccf> Siesta: those apps are avalilabe from the application marketplace on vmware.com
[01:10] <brianski> orudie: but you're right, it would be neat
[01:10] <brianski> a microkernel could probably do it easier
[01:10] <Piet> buttons840: no, i was talking about the 'network' setting when i said it is _probably_ the same as your _internal_ ip address with a .255 at the end. and this was referring to configuring a server placed in a LAN behind NAT.
[01:10] <TroN-0074> can somebody please help me for some reason my computer is not playing videos. I have ubuntu
[01:11] <sebsebseb> Siesta: Virtualbox is better
[01:11] <Siesta> yes i know fccf but I would like to run the latest version and I really don't want to take another hour to download ubuntu
[01:11] <Siesta> virtualbox is better?
[01:11] <brianski> TroN-0074: what happens when you try to play videos?
[01:11] <Siesta> does it play iso?
[01:11] <sebsebseb> Siesta: of course
[01:11] <Sylphid> hey all, got a problem on a new jaunty install.... nautilus is seg faulting.. any ideas what would cause this?
[01:11] <kartawirya> @Gustavo: something that easies is about apt-get install hall, but it may only done under the single user mode incase that HAL or X still malfunction...
[01:11] <TroN-0074> VLC just pop up then dessapears
[01:11] <fccf> Siesta: I use virtualbox on my xp machine .. I have no trouble with it
[01:11] <Piet> buttons840: what is the server you are configuring going to do? where in your network setup will it be situated?
[01:11] <Siesta> does it run iso without all this junk about .vmx files?
[01:12] <TroN-0074> same with does the movie player
[01:12] <tag> fccf: are you running 64 bit on the core2?
[01:12] <sebsebseb> Siesta: indeed
[01:12] <Piet> TroN-0074: run vlc from a terminal window and check its messages when it crashes
[01:12] <sebsebseb> Siesta: and it could even use VMDK files without needing a .vmx file
[01:12] <fccf> tag: no 32bit --- i needed a stable flumotion server .. I knew Hardy 32bit is the best bet
[01:12] <TroN-0074> how does the terminal command look like?
[01:12] <brianski>  ``y7: hmm that's not a good sign. try dmesg | grep eth and pastebin the whole thing
[01:13] <jimcooncat> Siesta: you will have to set up storage within virtualbox, so that is another file. you mount the ISO as a cdrom IIRC
[01:13] <jimcooncat> Siesta: but it's easy and guided
[01:13] <tanner> can anyone direct me to a tutorial/howto/otherwise on how to safely setup a previous software raid (openfiler) with ubuntu
[01:13] <buttons840> Piet, i have it working, it's just a headless server (which i had to attach a head to when i fubbed up ;) attaching to a generic user friendly not setup required linksys router
[01:13] <TroN-0074> can you please tell me the command to type on terminal to run VLC?
[01:13] <dsdeiz> hi, any xmonad users here?
[01:13] <brianski_afk> TroN-0074: vlc
[01:13] <brianski_afk> all lower case. that's it
[01:13] <dsdeiz> TroN-0074: vlc?
[01:14] <orudie> wow its so slow and it did not connect me to the internet :(
[01:14] <jstoneburner> Hello everyone
[01:14] <``y7> brianski_afk: my terminal wouldn't show me the entire thing, but here is all that it showed me: http://pastebin.com/d61c1516
[01:14] <fccf> !hi | jstoneburner
[01:15] <kartawirya> @Sylpid: if use Live CD, make sure the CD is not defect.
[01:15] <TroN-0074> a bunch of letters came out when I type vlc and there is the media player now on the screen
[01:15] <TroN-0074> should I try to open a avi file?
[01:16] <brianski_afk> ``y7: try dmesg | grep eth | head -20
[01:16] <jstoneburner> I took the first step in getting FOSS into the local public schools today.  I sent an email to the IT director asking for a sitdown meeting to discuss what kind of role FOSS can play in the schools.  Its going to be a long "walk" from here.
[01:16] <jimcooncat> TroN-0074: why not?
[01:16] <brianski_afk> TroN-0074: yeap
[01:16] <Sylphid> kartawirya, its post install and upgrade... even tried reinstalling nautilus did not help
[01:16] <brianski_afk> orudie: seriously i think you will have better luck by downloading a standard x86 iso, and then converting it to a usb image
[01:16] <TroN-0074> one sec
[01:16] <fccf> jstoneburner: this is the ubuntu support channel - - that might be a better topic for #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:16] <jstoneburner> Ah, 10-4, sorry about that.
[01:16] <Guest1488> hi all. im on 9.04 and at reboot i got an error "Internal error, failed to initialize HAL!". anyone knows whats up with it?
[01:16] <orudie> brianski_afk, its already instlaled, its just working relaly slow for some reason
[01:16] <dsdeiz> any xmonad users here? :D
[01:17] <tag> how well does the 32bit translation layer work in linux?
[01:17] <tag> in 64bit linux
[01:17] <tag> I run a fair amount of proprietary software...
[01:17] <brianski_afk> tag: just fine
[01:17] <kseise> Tag: just fine for me also
[01:17] <brianski_afk> i've been running 64 bit for 2 years or so
[01:17] <``y7> brianski_afk: http://pastebin.com/d6526e2be
[01:17] <brianski_afk> there are 32-bit compatibility libs in the default install now, so you don't even have to think about it most times
[01:18] <Guest1488> !HAL
[01:18] <kartawirya> Sylphid: that looks like the GTK library incompatibility problem with current nutilus version...
[01:18] <tag> I'll give it a shot
[01:18] <brianski_afk> ``y7: sorry i don't know what to tell you, maybe try that again after a reboot. i have no idea what all those messages are and they are obscuring the info we want to get at, which is namely what the driver is complaining about when you try to set the mtu to 9000
[01:18] <tag> later though
[01:18] <kseise> Tag: What sorts of programs
[01:19] <tag> kseise: oracle-xe
[01:19] <jimcooncat> dsdeiz: no, but it looks nice
[01:19] <orudie> so you think its slow because i instlalled the netbook version instead of desktop ?
[01:19] <kseise> Tag: I haven't tried it, but it should work.
[01:19] <``y7> brianski_afk: reboot the networking or the entire system?
[01:20] <brianski_afk> ``y7: the entire system, its the only way i know of to clear dmesg
[01:20] <brianski_afk> orudie: are you using the one program at a time UNR interface or gnome ?
[01:20] <brianski_afk> if you had an lpia optimized image, it would run very slowly on for example an amd chip, so its possible
[01:21] <orudie> yeah amd
[01:21] <owen1> how to open the mixer for my logitech mic?
[01:22] <``y7> roger that brianski_afk, thx for the help. i've got somebody trying to help me in another channel. once i'm done with that, i'll reboot it.
[01:22] <TroN-0074> it might not be a problem with the media player
[01:22] <Sylphid> kartawirya, any work around?
[01:22] <TroN-0074> do you think it can be a problem with the video card?
[01:22] <jimcooncat> dsdeiz: can you use gnome-panel or xfce-panel with it?
[01:22] <TroN-0074> I mean configuration problem
[01:22] <brianski_afk> orudie: you also probably have different drivers installed than if you had done a straight up desktop install. which might mean you are noticing things like poor video performance
[01:22] <TroN-0074> is there a  way that you can look to it
[01:22] <brianski_afk> ``y7: good luck!
[01:23] <Jutman> hey kartawirya , thats seemed to work (but we'll find out in a bit :P) thanks!
[01:23] <orudie> ok going to install regular desktop
[01:23] <brianski_afk> orudie: you can convert any iso to a usb image with system -> administration -> usb startup disk creator
[01:23]  * brianski_afk now really afk. 
[01:23] <kartawirya> Hi Jutman, nice, nice...
[01:24] <Jutman> If you're from MD, I'll buy you a beer :P
[01:24] <TroN-0074> is there a way I can reset ubuntu?
[01:24] <kseise> brianski_afk: I have tried repeatedly but get dropped into a busybox shell from the new USB image.  Any tips?
[01:25] <TroN-0074> because it is not playing videos since that one day my friends was messing around with the ubuntu configuration
[01:25] <TroN-0074> I think he changed something of the video card configuration
[01:26] <Paddy_EIRE> TroN-0074: do you remember anything that he did?
[01:26] <DasEi> TroN-0074: yusing vlc ?
[01:26] <TroN-0074> I cant remember anything he did because he was typing fast
[01:26] <TroN-0074> yes I have vlc
[01:26] <kartawirya> Sylphid: my short thinking about mismatch GNOME version, because I deal with seg fault with gschem 1.4 - that should work with ubuntu 8.04 but fail on ubuntu 9.04
[01:27] <TroN-0074> and movie player also is not openning files
[01:27] <Um_cara_qualquer> any C programer in the house today? pvt me plz, i wish some little help here
[01:27] <DasEi> TroN-0074: try to run it from cmd-lineto see errors, like vlc anyfilm.avi
[01:28] <fccf> Um_cara_qualquer: you might ask in #gcc
[01:28] <TroN-0074> how can I do that?
[01:28] <Um_cara_qualquer> thx dude
[01:28] <TroN-0074> can you walk me through?
[01:28] <XCP> Is the 8.04.2 version somehow "less" maintained (security/bug/fix-wise) than newer versions? or is 8.04 equally maintained and therefore equally secure?
[01:28] <DasEi> !who | TroN-0074
[01:28] <mobi-sheep> !lts | XCP
[01:28] <XCP> mobi-sheep: I know that, but that does not even touch the question I asked.
[01:28] <TroN-0074> sorry I was talking to whoever would like to help
[01:29] <mobi-sheep> XCP: You're likely to experience less problem with LTS version than Jaunty.  I don't mind Jaunty because I like to live on bleeding edge. :)
[01:29] <XCP> mobi-sheep: okay :)
[01:29] <fccf> XCP: the LTS version is more mature as operating systems goes... If you want something stable it is the way to go
[01:29] <mbostwick> hello. I am in kde 4.2 ubuntu and was wondering if theres a way to enter symbols with keyboard shortcuts
[01:30] <XCP> fccf: stable... and also more secure?
[01:30] <XCP> (in average)
[01:30] <rainwalker> if I install ubuntu on one of two un-raided hard drives in my computer, vista already installed on the other one, will GRUB allow me to choose between the two at boot?
[01:30] <kseise> XCP: More stable as in "less likely to destroy your data"
[01:30] <mobi-sheep> XCP: More stable, yes.  More secure?  I don't know.  Nothing is ever safe in life. :)
[01:31] <fccf> XCP: unplug you network connection if you want SECURE
[01:31] <mobi-sheep> !security | XCP
[01:31] <kseise> rainwalker: yes, just remember to install Ubuntu last
[01:31] <brianski_afk> i would guess LTS is less prone to security problems in general
[01:31] <rainwalker> kseise: sweet, so I don't have to do anything special? as long as I install it to the right hard drive?
[01:31] <brianski_afk> but as it gets very old, that's less likely to hold true
[01:31] <kartawirya> @rainwalker, it should appear the boot option to let you switch one of OS'es
[01:32] <mobi-sheep> XCP: I was gunning for http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/security earlier.  Something worth reading. :)
[01:32] <rainwalker> kartawirya: sorry, could you explain that?
[01:32] <mudassar> hello experts solve my problem
[01:32] <DasEi> rainwalker: it should, but you could try to install grub on the other, non vista hd to not the bootloader
[01:32] <kseise> rainwalker: correct.  Just watch the drive numbers and naming.  Don't write over Vista.  As always, make a backup of hte important data first.
[01:32] <orudie> ok gonna try to install desktop from cd
[01:32] <DasEi> rainwalker: it should, but you could try to install grub on the other, non vista hd to not destroy* the bootloader
[01:33] <rainwalker> kseise, DasEi, I'm installing vista on one of the hard drives as we speak, where do you recommend I go from here?
[01:33] <XCP> mobi-sheep, fccf: yes, I get your point. I was just trying to say... if you use an OS that is continuously worked on for a long time, the number of found & fixed security exploits increases, while the chance of new ones being created is minimized (because you don't install cutting edge, new code). is my assumption not valid?
[01:33] <mudassar> Hello experts, I want to create a bash file which will open 6 terminals in tabs with root user and specific working directory. How to accomplish that ?
[01:33] <fccf> XCP: yes .. I'd go with 8.04 LTS
[01:34] <mobi-sheep> XCP: Security patches will be included in the updates.
[01:34] <kartawirya> rainwalker, of course that GRUB should in Linux Ext2/3/4 partition and not on NTFS
[01:34] <DasEi> rainwalker: change the hd to boot from in bios, (maybe use a live cd to backup vistas mbr, too), install buntu and install grub to the mbr of the free, then buntu disk
[01:34] <kseise> rainwalker: when you finish Vista on C:\ try rebooting from the live CD and follow the install prompts.  At the end, you will be prompted to install grub to the master boot record.  Others here have said no.  I would say yes.  It is your choice
[01:35] <mobi-sheep> XCP: Just because you're using LTS does not mean you'll be more security... just more stable.  The exploited packages on Jaunty could affect Hardy in the same manner.
[01:35] <mudassar> Hello experts, I want to create a bash file which will open 6 terminals in tabs with root user and specific working directory. How to accomplish that ?
[01:35] <rainwalker> DasEi: this is my first time setting up a dual boot, do you know of any more detailed instructions?
[01:36] <fccf> !dualboot
[01:36] <DasEi> !dual
[01:36] <rainwalker> kseise: what difference does it make where I install it? I'm unfamiliar with dual-booting
[01:36] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: You might want terminator.
[01:36] <mobi-sheep> !info terminator | mudassar
[01:37] <DasEi> rainwalker: mostly (:P) grub integrates an existing windows install, but you're always safe to backup the mbr before
[01:37] <kseise> rainwalker: if you install on the Vista drive master boot record, there is no going back.  You are stuck with GRUB and Ubuntu.  There is a way to recover the MBR for Vista, but it is a pain.
[01:38] <kartawirya> dual could be two but could be more of two where it give two choices to boot one...
[01:38] <fccf> rainwalker: having done MBR recovery on vista - i can tell you you should install grub to the partition that ubuntu is on, and make it bootable .. the grub bootloader will then load vista on demand
[01:38] <mudassar> how to use terminator to accomplish that ?
[01:38] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: You should look into "man terminator" and "terminator --help" for command parameters you can use.  Also, look into Profile.  This would be easier than create a script, I suppose. ;)
[01:39] <DasEi> rainwalker: so best bet will be to have grub on the other hd, and -if not autodetected at install - add vista to it later
[01:39] <rainwalker> ahh two people are telling me exactly the opposite things haha
[01:39] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: I think there are a bug for starting terminal with tabs since it actually does not do the said parameter.
[01:39] <hellochina> hello ,all guys
[01:39] <Gustavo> My PS/2 mouse is not working in GDM, but a USB mouse I've connected does. Any suggestions? I need to use the PS/2 interface.
[01:39] <kseise> rainwalker: DasEi means edit the GRUB menu later.  It should be automatic if you install Vista first.
[01:40] <kartawirya> hellochina, hello too...
[01:40] <DasEi> rainwalker: nope,same as kseise and fccf
[01:40] <rainwalker> kseise: so, at the end of installing ubuntu, it will ask where to install grub to, correct? that's when I pick the hard drive I'm installing ubuntu on?
[01:40] <fccf> rainwalker: yes
[01:41] <kseise> rainwalker: yes ... just watch the drive letters.
[01:41] <rainwalker> kseise: "drive letters"?
[01:41] <DasEi> rainwalker: as said above, after vista installed, change bios to boot from other hd first
[01:41] <mudassar> mobi-sheep: I can't see any difference in the parameters of terminator from the parameters of gnome-terminal
[01:41] <kseise> rainwalker: c: drive is usually /dev/sda and d: drive is /dev/sdb  and so on.
[01:41] <rainwalker> DasEi: ohh, so change the boot order BEFORE I install ubuntu?
[01:42] <kartawirya> Hi Gustavo, shutdown you Linux, plug the PS/2 mouse and restart Linux again...
[01:42] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: Go fullscreen, Right-click and split horizontally.
[01:42] <fccf> rainwalker: /dev/sda1 or /dev/hda1 will be vista ... /dev/sdb1 or /dev/hdb1 will be ubuntu providing vista is on first or zero drive
[01:42] <DasEi> rainwalker: yes, so you boot into grub and then can also choose (intact  vista-mbr) win
[01:42] <kseise> rainwalker" following DasEi, that takes the drive letter problem out of the equation.  Yes, switch the bios boot order between installs
[01:42] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: Customize to your liking and create a new group of that?
[01:43] <Gustavo> kartawirya, I've restarted it many times before with the PS/2 plugged in and it didn't work.
[01:43] <Oven1> How do I change the monitor that Ubuntu 9.04 detects?  It is not detecting my monitor correctly and giving me the proper resolution for the computer that I have hooked up to it.  The monitor does a resolution of 1280x720 and ubuntu only gives me the option of 1920x1080 or 1440x480 which is just not right
[01:43] <Viper550> Is there any sort of easy GUI md5 checker for Windows?
[01:43] <mudassar> mobi-sheep: actually I want to open about 6 terminals at once with root user and in a specific directory ..
[01:43] <sebsebseb> Viper550: of course
[01:43] <rainwalker> wow, now that I think about it, that makes a whole lot of sense
[01:43] <sebsebseb> !md5sum | Viper550
[01:43] <DasEi> Oven1: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:43] <rainwalker> thank you very much kseise, DasEi, and fccf :)
[01:43] <kartawirya> Try to fix X server again maybe...
[01:43] <DasEi> np
[01:43] <fccf> np
[01:44] <Oven1> I have tried modifying that and using xrandr and neither will give me the proper display
[01:44] <mudassar> mobi-sheep: actually I have to run a distributed system so I need many terminals at once ready for command... otherwise I have to manually do the process again and again :(
[01:44] <Oven1> The video card is an nvidia
[01:44] <sam555> so i have this delimma
[01:44] <sam555> i want to install apt cacher http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-set-up-a-repository-cache-with-apt-cacher
[01:44] <kseise> rainwalker: Good luck, and come back when you are done.  Don't give up on Ubuntu, it is just different from Vista if you are not familiar with Linux, it can be overwhelming at first
[01:44] <DasEi> Oven1: system> hardwaredrivers, correct driver installed ?
[01:44] <sam555> but it won't let me while i'm upgrading and I need it to work to catch the repository
[01:45] <DasEi> !nvidia
[01:45] <Oven1> Yup the nvidia 180.44 driver is installed
[01:45] <mbostwick> anyone know how to do dead kets in kubuntu
[01:45] <sam555> i'm assuming "cleaning up" during the upgrade means deleting all the repositories
[01:45] <sam555> any ideas?
[01:45] <DasEi> !resolution | Oven1
[01:45] <rainwalker> kseise: I've been using ubuntu since dapper :P
[01:45] <fccf> Oven1: see my private conversation now
[01:45] <XCP> is there a way to install software with newer versions from 9.04 repositories on a 8.04 system?
[01:45] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: You might want to try #bash
[01:45] <jrib> !backports | XCP
[01:45] <kseise> rainwalker: then good luck and good night.  I have to run.
[01:45] <XCP> jrib: thanks
[01:46] <rainwalker> kseise: I got a new laptop (thinkpad w700) with two hard drives, so I un-raided them and am installing an OS on each. thank you, again
[01:46] <mudassar> mobi-sheep: but how will I open the terminal from bash with root user ?
[01:46] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: #bash is the channel that often work with bash scripts.
[01:47] <mudassar> mobi-sheep: yes I know that but there is no way to write a script command that will open a terminal in root user mode
[01:47] <``y7> how do i figure out the max MTU my nic can handle in ubuntu?
[01:47] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: No.  I don't know about that, but you can use sudo -- to borrow root's power.
[01:47] <sam555> Flannel: you there?
[01:47] <robuntu> hey whats the command (ether to append to fstab or chmod,etc) to change the ownership of a ext3 partition?
[01:47] <mudassar> mobi-sheep: it asks for the password but opens the terminal in normal mode :(
[01:48] <mobi-sheep> !chown | robuntu
[01:48] <mobi-sheep> robuntu: Is that what you're looking for?  chown -- I believe.
[01:48] <DasEi> robuntu: fstab > user   or sudo chown  >user<   file
[01:48] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: Why do you need root?
[01:49] <DasEi> robuntu: use -R option for subdirs
[01:49] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: If you're doing a update/upgrade on machines, you can use "sudo aptitude full-upgrade"
[01:49] <TroN-0074> can somebody please help me to figure out how to play avi files and DVDs in my computer? I am using ubuntu in a pention 4 computer
[01:49] <mudassar> mobi-sheep: actually my distributed system needs to have some nodes (each node runs in one terminal) and it require roots privileges
[01:49] <DasEi> TroN-0074: did you try vlc from cmd-line?
[01:50] <mudassar> mobi-sheep: my ubuntu 9.04 is up to date
[01:50] <TroN-0074> thank you DasEi I dont know how
[01:50] <nymphonix> why would my wireless connection be named as eth1? kind of makes conky configuring ... different.
[01:50] <mobi-sheep> TroN-0074: "sudo aptitude install vlc"
[01:50] <DasEi> TroN-0074: got an avi or similar video file handy ?
[01:50] <mobi-sheep> TroN-0074: In the terminal -- Can be found under Accessories.
[01:50] <kartawirya> TroN-0074, what desktop you use, GNOME ?? KDE ??
[01:50] <DasEi> !terminal | TroN-0074
[01:50] <TroN-0074> Oh I already have vlc
[01:51] <DasEi> TroN-0074: got an avi or similar video file handy ?
[01:51] <mobi-sheep> nymphonix: We don't know.  I heard about this before.  Some people have eth0 and some people have eth1 for no reason. :)
[01:51] <mobi-sheep> nymphonix: Although they only have a single instance of interface card.
[01:51] <TroN-0074> yes I did already try to open it with vlc and movie player and nothing happened
[01:51] <TroN-0074> so I would like some help trying to figure it out
[01:52] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: If you're working with servers and such, you might want to try #ubuntu-server
[01:52] <DasEi> mobi-sheep: it's because there was another iface before (mac)
[01:52] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: As they regulated working with servers (and nodes, perhaps).
[01:52] <DarkRavin> someone plz help me i cant get online with ubuntu some how i tried to set up a adsl and messed it all up and now it wont go on line
[01:52] <mudassar> mobi-sheep: this has nothing to do with servers
[01:52] <TroN-0074> I have GNOME
[01:52] <nymphonix> it just seems odd. i wonder if it has anything to do with using a proprietary driver.
[01:52] <DasEi> TroN-0074: got an avi or similar video file handy ?
[01:52] <mobi-sheep> DasEi: Really?  We should ask. :)
[01:52] <kartawirya> TroN-0074, if you use KDE then try to install ffmpeg for xine...
[01:53] <TroN-0074> yes I have one right here DasEi
[01:53] <mudassar> mobi-sheep: I am only interested in opening multiple terminals in root at once
[01:53] <DasEi> TroN-0074: located in which dirrectory ?
[01:53] <togetic> !ctl-alt-backspace
[01:53] <Pici> !dontzap | togetic
[01:53] <TroN-0074> I have all my media files in a internal hard drive
[01:54] <owen1> how to change audio device without using the 'volume applet' (terminal-based ubuntu)?
[01:54] <DasEi> TroN-0074: path ?
[01:54] <DarkRavin> how can i reset ubuntu to defaults
[01:54] <Randabis> !audio
[01:54] <Randabis> !default
[01:55] <DasEi> TroN-0074: mind if I pm you ?
[01:55] <Randabis> heh, that didn't really do what I thought...
[01:55] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: Did you see this?  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[01:55] <Randabis> !reset
[01:55] <DarkRavin> how do i manage my devices
[01:55] <Pici> Randabis: What are you looking for?
[01:55] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: Well, you can write a script that will start in a regular terminal and command to be in a root setup.
[01:55] <Randabis> Pici: nothing in particular
[01:55] <DasEi> DarkRavin: what to achieve ?
[01:56] <ewsubach> if I modify the permissions on /lib/security/pam_umask.so, will that only allow root to use the umask command?
[01:56] <antoranz> so, guys... what do we people with i865 do to test the new driver?
[01:56] <WhiteScar> k
[01:56] <Pici> Randabis: Then please /msg ubottu something    instead of using ubottu in the channel
[01:56] <antoranz> cause I see no updated driver lately with apt-get update
[01:56] <mudassar> mobi-sheep: but for every terminal I will have to put password separately :)
[01:56] <DarkRavin> DasEi my ubuntu does not see my ethrnet anymore
[01:56] <TroN-0074> media/DRV2_VOL1/Boiling Point/Beyond Boiling Point/Beyond Boiling Point - Episode 1 [digitaldistractions].avi
[01:57] <mobi-sheep> mudassar: Did you try "sudo -i" though?
[01:57] <TroN-0074> that is the path of the video I was trying
[01:57] <DasEi> DarkRavin: lspci finds the card ?
[01:57] <DasEi> !who | TroN-0074
[01:58] <ewsubach> if I modify the permissions for root access on /lib/security/pam_umask.so, will that only allow root to use the umask command? or is the command located elsewhere?
[01:58] <Randabis> Pici: I was actually trying to find something related to the questions about reseting ubuntu to default, and the audio question posted earlier...I posted in channel hoping it would bring up something relevant to those people's problems
[01:58] <DarkRavin> DesEi and i type that in termal
[01:58] <TroN-0074> sorry DasEi I was talking to you
[01:58] <DasEi> DarkRavin: yes
[01:58] <DasEi> TroN-0074: mind if I pm you ?
[01:58] <limpc> im having trouble with flash on ubuntu
[01:58] <TroN-0074> please do
[01:58] <limpc> cant seem to type anything in pages that use flash
[01:59] <DarkRavin> DesEi what if its built in
[01:59] <limpc> ive reinstalled flash but it didnt appear to help. also tried installing directly from adobe's site instead of through the package manager. same result..
[01:59] <dyess002> i have no prompt anymore in my terminal
[01:59] <ibmman> how come you cant use windows drivers in ubuntu?
[01:59] <limpc> ibmman: you cant
[01:59] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Running amd64?
[01:59] <limpc> mobi-sheep: yeah
[01:59] <limpc> athlon x2 64
[02:00] <DasEi> DarkRavin: [DasEi] nomatter, is it found ?
[02:00] <limpc> i have 32bit ubuntu though
[02:00] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Did you try this --> Place a certain file in ~/.mozilla/plugins ?
[02:00] <Hyperbuddha> I have a strange question. I have a home server that doesn't have a cd drive so i am running the ubuntu install in virtualbox on my mac and trying to install onto an ide drive in an external inclosure however ubuntu doesnt find the drive
[02:00] <mobi-sheep> limpc: I think it's in the factorid.
[02:00] <mobi-sheep> !flash | limpc
[02:00] <limpc> mobi-sheep: no? i installed flash through the package manager
[02:00] <Hyperbuddha> can anyone help
[02:00] <limpc> i hate bots :P
[02:01] <DasEi> TroN-0074: saw message window ?
[02:01] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Okay.  Uninstall what you did.
[02:01] <limpc> mobi-sheep: k.. update manager is currently running so will have to wait for it to finish
[02:01] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Download this --> http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0.22.87.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz
[02:02] <mobi-sheep> limpc: And untar it.  Tell me what the file is.   I'll wait for you. :)
[02:02] <simplyc> flash works through package management
[02:03] <Hyperbuddha> I have a strange question. I have a home server that doesn't have a cd drive so i am running the ubuntu install in virtualbox on my mac and trying to install onto an ide drive in an external inclosure however ubuntu doesnt find the drive
[02:03] <mobi-sheep> simplyc: You're running 32bit, aren't you? :O
[02:03] <simplyc> 64
[02:04] <limpc> mobi-sheep: libflashplayer.so
[02:04] <mobi-sheep> simplyc: Ah.  Well what worked for you does not always work for others. :|
[02:04] <limpc> so i just put that in ~/.mozilla/plugins/?
[02:04] <mobi-sheep> limpc: To ensure you don't have anything else, run the command "sudo apt-get purge flashplugin-nonfree gnash gnash-common mozilla-plugin-gnash nspluginwrapper swfdec-mozilla"
[02:04] <rance_> anybody got vmware2 running on a 9.04 box? Im having trouble, I cant add a vm
[02:04] <conan> hey guys, how can i get my logitech quick cam to be recognized by ubuntu?
[02:04] <Pici> Hyperbuddha: The best bet would either to ask in #vbox or find a better way to install Ubuntu
[02:05] <limpc> mobi-sheep: ran it, nothing was removed
[02:05] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Yes.  Make a new directory if you need to.
[02:05] <Hyperbuddha> ok thanks
[02:05] <limpc> hmm weird
[02:05] <Hyperbuddha> can ubuntu be installed on a flash drive
[02:05] <fccf> Hyperbuddha: I might have a solution for you
[02:05] <conan> hey guys, how can i get my logitech quick cam to be recognized by ubuntu?
[02:05] <Hyperbuddha> oh what
[02:05] <limpc> mobi-sheep: when i go to that folder theres already a libflashplayer.so in there
[02:06] <mobi-sheep> Hyperbuddha: Yes.
[02:06] <fccf> Hyperbuddha: that would be my solution
[02:06] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Try and replace it.
[02:06] <fccf> !usb
[02:06] <Hyperbuddha> how do i do it
[02:06] <mobi-sheep> Hyperbuddha: Look at persistent live USB install.
[02:06] <Hyperbuddha> will this install a full ubuntu install
[02:06] <ryanc`> Is there any way to install to an existing encrypted LVM setup under 9.04?
[02:07] <robuntu> !lol
[02:07] <mobi-sheep> Hyperbuddha: Yes.  There are two different kind.  An USB that install Ubuntu onto a machine, and an USB to run Ubuntu off on it.
[02:07] <simplyc> actually, using the package management, it goes and downloads, then installs flash from adobe
[02:07] <mobi-sheep> simplyc: There were some Flash issues in the past.
[02:07] <limpc> mobi-sheep: that didnt work. i replaced it and restarted firefox. but now im getting a 'missing plugin' error when i go to a page requiring flash.
[02:07] <Hyperbuddha> oh and can i format one partition ext3 and another fat32
[02:07] <DasEi> Hyperbuddha: yes, full install, if you got a running jaunty, usb-creator is a very handy tool
[02:08] <robuntu> hey whats the command (ether to append to fstab or chmod,etc) to change the ownership of a ext3 partition?
[02:08] <ryanc`> ATM I am attemping to use debootstrap to install it and then manually install the kernel and initrd for grub.
[02:08] <DasEi> Hyperbuddha: can,manuall partioning
[02:08] <usser_> robuntu, there's none, simply chown the mount point
[02:08] <Hyperbuddha> how would i go about doing that
[02:08] <mobi-sheep> limpc: That's strange.  That *would* work by now.  That's my way of getting Flash to work for me.
[02:08] <usser_> robuntu, uid=user,gid=user is only for partitions that dont know about unix permissions, like fat or ntfs
[02:09] <mobi-sheep> limpc: However, the install-flash command did not work for you too. Hmm.
[02:09] <limpc> well the flash installer worked fine
[02:09] <limpc> just couldnt TYPE in any flash apps
[02:09] <usser_> robuntu, the exact command would be something like sudo chown -R username:group /mountpoint
[02:09] <mobi-sheep> limpc: What flash apps?
[02:09] <limpc> i get a prompt in textboxes but when i type nothing shows up.
[02:09] <CleanLaundry> any idea on how to access a external hard drive that is connected to a desktop computer that I am connecting to with FTP?
[02:09] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Could it have been your theme that cause conflict in colors? (visible)?
[02:09] <limpc> like http://bubbl.us for sample. when you start the mindmap app and click on a box it gives a textbox for you to alter the name
[02:10] <limpc> but basically, any flash app
[02:10] <usser_> CleanLaundry, if the external harddrive is not shared through ftp then you cant
[02:10] <limpc> no..
[02:10] <Gustavo> I always forget this... I'll write it down this time! I'm inside GDM. How can I get to the bash? Ctrl-2 doesn't work.
[02:10] <limpc> mobi-sheep: cursor wasnt moving.
[02:10] <CleanLaundry> usser_, ahh shoot, nm :) thanks
[02:10] <usser_> Gustavo, ctrl+alt+f2
[02:10] <pulaski> Hello,  Can someone take a look and suggest other dependencies I may need? I'm trying to build the source package rbmake-1.2.tar.gz.  ./configure seemed to work ok.  The ./configure output is posted here: http://paste.ubuntu.com:80/192073/ However make gave me errors.  The output is posted here: http://paste.ubuntu.com:80/192073/.
[02:10] <robuntu> usser_, i did , i changed the permissions on /mnt recursively, but still /mnt/sdc1 is still owned by root, and no matter what i do i can't change it.
[02:10] <limpc> mobi-sheep: the strange thing was, if i copied text from a text editor (e.g. scite) and ctrl + v'd in the flash app, it'd paste
[02:10] <[Crussd2]> !ksetup
[02:10] <Gustavo> usser_ , much appreciated!
[02:10] <[Crussd2]> !cruss
[02:10] <limpc> just cant type
[02:11] <usser_> robuntu, did you mount the partition before chowning?
[02:11] <Pici> !msgthebot
[02:11] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Try install it again and use a different theme this time.  (Just in case). :)
[02:11] <limpc> theme?
[02:11] <mobi-sheep> limpc: System --> Preferences --> Appearances.
[02:11] <robuntu> usser_, i did it after
[02:12] <lstarnes> pulaski: the second link there is the same as the first
[02:12] <limpc> im using the same theme ive always used. it (flash) worked before in ubuntu 8.04
[02:12] <limpc> when i dist-upgraded to 9 it stopped working
[02:12] <pulaski> thanks let me check
[02:12] <limpc> er.. 8.10
[02:12] <usser_> robuntu, hm, there's no way chown wouldn't work
[02:13] <usser_> robuntu, can you mount the partition do sudo chown and pastebin the results of ls -al /mountpoint command
[02:13] <ghindo> How do I get Firefox to forget the tabs that I was last using?  That is, how do I get Firefox to launch a "clean slate" every time?
[02:13] <simplyc> limpc:  do you have all the necessary software sources checked? ...software restricted by copyright or legal issues (multiverse)
[02:13] <_2eXtreme> hey guys, can anyone give me a complete list of tools and applications i'll need in order to develop actionscript applications in ubuntu?

[02:14] <ibmman> did bill gates really copy macintosh operating system?
[02:14] <usser_> ibmman, no
[02:14] <Hyperbuddha> yes
[02:14] <simplyc> limpc:  did you search flash in synaptic and try flashplugin-nonfree and flashplugin-installer?
[02:14] <limpc> simplyc: which one should i be installing - adobe-flashplayer or flashplugin-nonfree?
[02:15] <limpc> well i was using adobe-flashplayer previously
[02:15] <Pici> !ot | ibmman
[02:15] <simplyc> limpc:  those are the two that do it from adobe...
[02:16] <ibmman> bill gates only copied a portion of the operating system
[02:16] <limpc> the flashplugin-nonfree?
[02:16] <simplyc> limpc:  yes
[02:16] <limpc> ok let me try those hd
[02:17] <Pici> ibmman: please stop
[02:17] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Did you saw this already?  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AMD64/FirefoxAndPlugins?action=show&redirect=FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[02:17] <ckw> Did Ubuntu change the implementation of mt_rand() in php?
[02:17] <kotsu> Funkyhat, you there?
[02:17] <jrib> !source > ckw
[02:17] <jrib> ckw: you'll probably have to check for yourself
[02:17] <ckw> seeding the PRNG with mt_rand(99999) does not produce the same sequence of random numbers
[02:18] <pulaski> lstarnes: Here's the correct second link.  Its the output from make that returned the errors: http://paste.ubuntu.com/192077/
[02:19] <kartawirya> php on Ubuntu also has little strange in -r option
[02:19] <limpc> simplyc: that didnt work sorry. same result as before. cant type.
[02:19] <limpc> mobi-sheep: reading..
[02:19] <grekkos_> In order to get higher resolution non-x terminal I have to compile a new kernel right? or is there an option I can use with the default one to switch the resolution
[02:20] <ewsubach> can anyone tell me where is the umask command is located?
[02:20] <jrib> !tty | grekkos_, you do not need to recompile anything...
[02:20] <lstarnes> ewsubach: use the commmand "which umask"
[02:20] <Pici> ewsubach: its a shell builtin
[02:20] <kartawirya> @grekkos_ , edit your xorg.conf...
[02:20] <lstarnes> *command
[02:20] <ibmman> i have a question if there is so many viruses for windows how come there is no viruses for mac os x yet how come people waste there time making them for windows but they do not waste there time making them for macintosh?
[02:20] <simplyc> strange, I upgraded this machine too
[02:20] <limpc> mobi-sheep: im not using 64 bit ubuntu
[02:20] <grekkos_> thanks jrib
[02:20] <jrib> !ot | ibmman
[02:20] <ewsubach> Pici: how do I only let root use this command?
[02:20] <mobi-sheep> limpc: You say you were?
[02:20] <lstarnes> ewsubach: why?
[02:21] <limpc> no, you asked if i had an amd64
[02:21] <dathku1> ewsubach: you can set it in your .bashrc
[02:21] <limpc> i have an amd x2 64 but im running ubuntu 32 bit
[02:21] <lstarnes> grekkos_: have you enabled the framebuffer?
[02:21] <ewsubach> dathku1: that wasn't the question
[02:21] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Ahh.  You could have opt for Ubuntu 64amd. :)
[02:21] <limpc> i really should upgrade to 64 bit.. sigh
[02:21] <grekkos_> lstarnes: I haven't done anything to my default install except install a few extra packages
[02:21] <limpc> mobi-sheep: yeah i tried but the installer wouldnt launch
[02:21] <lstarnes> grekkos_: if it's enabled, you can specify in the kernel options /boot/grub/menu.lst which framebuffer resolution you want
[02:22] <mobi-sheep> limpc: amd64*.  Hmm. Generally, installing an flash-nonfree *should* work right out of the box for most Ubuntu 32bit.
[02:22] <grekkos_> lstarnes: yeah I see that on the wiki i'm reading now, but thank you
[02:22] <DarkRavin> DesEi it shows it but still no go -- i tried to set up a adsl and think it messed up
[02:22] <ewsubach> Pici: is there a way to only let root run this command?
[02:22] <limpc> mobi-sheep: yeah its weird. it worked fine when i was on fiesty. when i upgraded to jaunty it stopped working
[02:22] <grekkos_> I'm guessing 1600x1200 is the highest it goes?
[02:22] <[Crussd2]> !i386
[02:22] <dathku1> ewsubach: did you try a locate

[02:23] <mib_hvopbro8> if i install kde on ubuntu will it looks exactly like kubuntu does on install and have all of the apps?
[02:23] <lstarnes> ghindo: are you trying to have it clear out the history completely?
[02:23] <kbrosnan> ghindo: edit > prefs > main > when firefox starts
[02:23] <mobi-sheep> limpc: You installed flash again, right?
[02:23] <mobi-sheep> limpc: The old one -- the same one you went with.
[02:23] <grekkos_> is 1600x1200 the highest resolution available for tty?
[02:23] <DarkRavin> !tab ok
[02:23] <jrib> mobi-sheep: if you install kubuntu-desktop, sure
[02:23] <jrib> mib_hvopbro8: if you install kubuntu-desktop, sure
[02:23] <limpc> mobi-sheep: i installed flashplugin-nonfree
[02:23] <dathku1> ewsubach: so your question has been answered
[02:23] <DarkRavin> !tab
[02:24] <DasEi> DarkRavin: output of ifconfig ?
[02:24] <CleanLaundry> usser_, i have shared the drive and other internal drive on my desktop to a shared folder in my ftp server, but still only connects to my default C director
[02:24] <DasEi> !paste | DarkRavin
[02:24] <ghindo> kbrosnan: I have it set to show my homepage, but for some reason it keeps remember the tabs I had open when I last launched Firefox.
[02:24] <mobi-sheep> limpc: You got your flash back, right?  Try a different color / theme.
[02:24] <fikst> hey
[02:24] <gil> hi, im new to ssh. how can i setup an ssh host on my ubuntu machine so that I can share files from another computer (vbix client)
[02:24] <mib_hvopbro8> jrib: itll have all of the apps also like amarok and kopete and everything?
[02:24] <ewsubach> dathku1: not my second question. i want to restrict this command to being used only by root
[02:24] <jrib> mib_hvopbro8: yes
[02:24] <limpc> lol. mobi text shows up as black in the textboxes
[02:24] <fikst> is it possible to burn a .cdr image in ubuntu?
[02:24] <lstarnes> ghindo: install openssh-server
[02:24] <fikst> will brasero support it?
[02:24] <limpc> when i type the cursor doesnt move.
[02:24] <ghindo> !ssh | gil
[02:24] <jrib> !iso | fikst
[02:24] <DasEi> !samba | gil
[02:24] <kbrosnan> ghindo: is firefox crashing on close?
[02:24] <limpc> even if it was white on white the cursor would still move
[02:24] <usser_> CleanLaundry, thats a ftp-server specific, is it running on windows?
[02:25] <usser_> CleanLaundry, i wouldn't know much about windows ftp servers
[02:25] <ghindo> kbrosnan: Nope.
[02:25] <CleanLaundry> usser_, yes, but its Filezilla
[02:25] <Gustavo> I'm running Ubuntu 8.10 and I was trying to get my mouse and keyboard working. Everything is fine now, but the highest screen resolution available is 800x600. I also changed this image from a different machine with a different graphics card. Any suggestions as to how I can achieve higher resolutions?
[02:25] <dathku1> ewsubach: ahh ok, sounds neat ive never done that before
[02:25] <mib_hvopbro8> jrib: nice I'm gonna give it a try, one more thing, when u install and application, it downloads a package or w.e., does that package still remain on your computer even though you uninstall the app?
[02:25] <mobi-sheep> !who | limpc  :)
[02:25] <usser_> CleanLaundry, never used it
[02:25] <usser_> CleanLaundry, sorry
[02:25] <DarkRavin> sorry i dont know how to !tab
[02:25] <Pici> ewsubach: I'm not aware of a way to set it so that only root can use it.  You can set it systemwide though... or perhaps the trimmed down version of bash (I cannot for the life of me remember the name) will restrict it
[02:25] <CleanLaundry> usser_, k
[02:26] <limpc> mobi-sheep: sorry, did you say something? :P
[02:26] <jrib> mib_hvopbro8: yeah. Check out « man apt-get » and read about « apt-get clean »
[02:26] <mobi-sheep> limpc: No.  I was trying to catch on on your lines.  What site was this?
[02:26] <ewsubach> Pici: yeah, I know how to change it, I just want to enforce strict file permission policy for users, but since it's builtin I'll have to search some more
[02:26] <kbrosnan> ghindo: while firefox is closed clear sessionstore.js and .bak from your profile, ~/.mozilla/firefox...
[02:27] <limpc> mobi-sheep: bubbl.us
[02:27] <DarkRavin> DesEi: i will have to logout of windows then login to linux
[02:27] <Fragsworth> Whenever I select text in Firefox, and click&drag it, my entire screen flashes... Anyone know how to fix this problem?
[02:27] <ghindo> kbrosnan: I was hoping there was just a setting in about:config or the preferences I could change... :/  Oh well, thanks!
[02:27] <mib_hvopbro8> jrib: ok cool exactly what i needed, one more question would apt-get clean be any different then computer janitor?
[02:27] <mobi-sheep> limpc: I was able to type in something.  The cursor doesn't freeze for me.  Same as you?
[02:28] <kbrosnan> ghindo: that is assuming that you don't have an extension messing with it
[02:28] <limpc> mobi-sheep: when i type on the keyboard in flash, backspace and return work fine. a-z, 0-9 and space do nothing
[02:28] <DasEi> DarkRavin: second letter of my nick is an 'a' please mention, else can't follow your converstation
[02:28] <limpc> mobi-sheep: yeah nothing freezes. just nothing shows up
[02:28] <jrib> mib_hvopbro8: I don't know what that is
[02:28] <Pici> ewsubach: Ah, 'restricted' bash was what I was thinking of, that *may* be of use.
[02:28] <limpc> mobi-sheep: wonder if its not one of my firefox plugins?
[02:28] <ghindo> kbrosnan: Nope, just the default "ubuntu modifications" extension
[02:28] <mib_hvopbro8> jrib: im pretty sure you're using ubuntu right it's in system-administration-computer janitor
[02:29] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Could be.  Do you have several fireforx plugins? >_>
[02:29] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Err... addons.
[02:29] <ewsubach> Pici: i just googled it...unfortunately it's *too* restrictive :p thanks anyway
[02:29] <DarkRavin> DasEi sorry about that
[02:29] <DarkRavin> DasEi i will be back
[02:29] <DasEi> DarkRavin: I see, you can use a live cd (to keep connected)
[02:29] <usser_> ewsubach, what restricted bash? why are you even locking it down. just dont give your users admin permissions
[02:29] <jrib> mib_hvopbro8: i'm not...
[02:30] <grekkos_> is it possible to set the resolution to 1900x1080 for the tty?
[02:30] <DasEi> DarkRavin: AND FROM THE LIVE YOU CAN ALSO REPAIR YOUR HD-SYSTEM
[02:30] <mib_hvopbro8> jrib: ohh ok, thank for the help :D
[02:30] <DarkRavin> DasEi live cd of linux
[02:30] <limpc> mobi-sheep: just standard stuff.. firebug.. xmarks.. molbydenum.. lastpass.. foxyproxy.. foxtab.. firephp. ive just disabled the rest

[02:33] <jrib> nellmathew: what are you trying to install?
[02:33] <nellmathew> thanks lstarnes.. @jrib, it's a plugin for banshee to add shoutcast stations and browse them
[02:33] <grekkos_> jrib: can I set the resolution of my tty to 1900x1080? or for that matter any custom arbitrary resolution that's not listed in this selection on the wiki?
[02:33] <rtnar> ...i gotta upload personal paste, how do i do it?
[02:33] <mib_hvopbro8> anyone care to tell the difference between apt-get clean and apt-get autoclean im reading the manual but it's not too clear
[02:34] <mobi-sheep> rtnar: http://rtnar.pastebin.com/ ?
[02:34] <jrib> grekkos_: let me know if you figure out how...
[02:34] <lstarnes> purdyk: You're missing pcre.h.  Make sure you have libpcre3-dev installed. sorry for the late reply.
[02:34] <Hyperbuddha> will
[02:35] <rtnar> anyone got something better than www.pastebin.ca ?
[02:35] <grekkos_> jrib: I was reading about framebuffers elsewhere where it mentioned that it is possible and not recommnded, but that was from a sun website, probably on the topic of solaris
[02:35] <mobi-sheep> rtnar: Look at the link I gave you?
[02:35] <rtnar> did u?
[02:35] <Hyperbuddha> can i build a usb install stick of another os using the usb install stick builder
[02:35] <nellmathew> @rtnar, check http://webdevel.blogspot.com/2008/04/pastebin-sites.html
[02:35] <rtnar> o wow u did :P
[02:35] <rtnar> thanks bros
[02:35] <limpc> mobi-sheep: yep same issue with epiphany
[02:35] <Hyperbuddha> oh and can i access a ext3 drive via ftp on a mac
[02:35] <mobi-sheep> rtnar: Welcome/
[02:35] <rtnar> oh wow, 'support' channel that actually works
[02:36] <rtnar> all my life on the interbutts and its the first time i see that kind of magic
[02:36] <[Crussd2]> how do i installing a gfxboot??
[02:36] <rtnar> makes me want to install ubanto, too.
[02:36] <nellmathew> rtnar, this is the best channel ever - for the best OS ever, lol.
[02:36] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Well you're experiencing odd issues.  Even I don't know what to do.  Generally it would work right away, but... heh. :|
[02:36] <[Crussd2]> !ubanto
[02:36] <rtnar> nellmathew noticed.
[02:36] <limpc> mobi-sheep: tell me about it :/
[02:36] <Hyperbuddha> can i build a usb install stick of another os using the usb install stick builder oh and can i access a ext3 drive via ftp on a mac
[02:36] <usser_> Hyperbuddha, ftp doesnt care about filesystems, as long as you have a server application for your platform it will happily share whatever you tell it
[02:37] <rtnar> so.. guys...
[02:37] <Hyperbuddha> perfect thanks
[02:37] <rtnar> can one make ubuntu look like win xp ?
[02:37] <usser_> rtnar, yes
[02:37] <rtnar> its not my comp
[02:37] <lstarnes> rtnar: possibly, but there's usually no reason to
[02:37] <usser_> rtnar, google win4lin
[02:37] <rtnar> and i need to make the guy whom i borrowed it from happy :P
[02:37] <PhotoJim> Hyperbuddha: check out scp though, much better than ftp.  more secure.  terminal client built into OS-X, surely graphical front-ends around too.
[02:37] <rtnar> i mean
[02:37] <rtnar> 'i promise i won't change anything!'
[02:37] <grekkos_> rtnar: my grandmother is using ubuntu
[02:37] <rtnar> you know the drill, guise
[02:38] <usser_> rtnar, wait no, i think im confusing win4lin with something else
[02:38] <grekkos_> usser_: mac4lin
[02:38] <KavanS> anyone have intel HDA ich7 sound on ubuntu?
[02:38] <KavanS> I have very low mic volume, and do not have a micboost option in sound preferences
[02:38] <rtnar> is ubuntu a resource-hog ?
[02:38] <nellmathew> rtnar, check out http://ubuntu.online02.com/files/XpGnome.zip too if you like
[02:38] <Hyperbuddha> cool thanks
[02:38] <nellmathew> has screenshots
[02:38] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Did you install recently?
[02:38] <grekkos_> rtnar: compared to other linux distros, yes
[02:39] <grekkos_> rtnar: runs fine on most modern machines
[02:39] <limpc> mobi-sheep: i installed adobe air sdk and flex
[02:39] <rtnar> keyword: modern
[02:39] <grekkos_> rtnar: ran fine on my old 1.6ghz machine
[02:39] <DarkRavin> !paste
[02:39] <rtnar> my thing is like from 2002
[02:39] <usser_> grekkos_, yea
[02:39] <limpc> mobi-sheep: they're sdk's though and dont install anything in the system folders
[02:39] <grekkos_> rtnar: but at the same time, the shitty laptop i have at work runs ubuntu w/flux worse than KDE runs on slackware
[02:39] <rtnar> so i guess
[02:40] <rtnar> screw it
[02:40] <rtnar> untill i get my comp done
[02:40] <grekkos_> rtnar: it's worth a try
[02:40] <rtnar> then ill promise ill be back ;p
[02:40] <rtnar> with 4 gb ram and such.
[02:40] <mobi-sheep> limpc: You installed Jaunty or went with dist-upgrades few times?
[02:40] <grekkos_> rtnar: This laptop is the only machine i've had problems with
[02:40] <rtnar> Q: will it FLY LIKE A BIRD or just run ?
[02:40] <thugnasty> can someone help me out
[02:40] <limpc> mobi-sheep: oh.  i started with feisty and upgraded to jaunty
[02:41] <grekkos_> rtnar: without crazy compositing it ran perfectly fine on my old machine 1.67ghz with 1GB ram
[02:41] <DarkRavin> DasEi here is the ifconfig paste ----  http://paste.ubuntu.com/192098/
[02:41] <thugnasty> ??
[02:42] <mtnd3w> Hello, if someone needs to upgrade Ubuntu from Intrepid to Jaunty, would they need the Alternate CD/DVD or either Desktop or Alternate CD/DVD will work?
[02:42] <mobi-sheep> limpc: I'd do this.... Back up everything I got... into another hard drive.  Start with a fresh Jaunty install, perhaps amd64 this time? :)  Things can be a little distorted if you came from Feisty.
[02:43] <Hyperbuddha> wfor a home server which do you recomend open filer or ubuntu
[02:43] <limpc> :/ thats a bit of work lol. id have to try that sometime later.
[02:43] <PhotoJim> mtnd3w: you need the alternate CD.  or do a network upgrade.
[02:43] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Then you won't experience odd issues... :)
[02:43] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Yes that can be a little of a work.   Just my thought.
[02:43] <thugnasty> how do i install my winxp drivers on ubuntu?
[02:44] <mtnd3w> PhotoJim: Thank you!
[02:44] <lstarnes> thugnasty: drivers for what?
[02:44] <Hyperbuddha> can i build a usb install stick of another os using the usb install stick builder
[02:44] <limpc> mobi-sheep: yeah. just have a few projects on the line i gotta finish. wanted to use bubbl.us to mindmap a prototype but guess ill have to find another way for now
[02:44] <mobi-sheep> limpc: Considering your issue... that was weird.  Good luck though! :)
[02:44] <thugnasty> wifi card
[02:44] <mobi-sheep> limpc: I understand completely. :)
[02:44] <Dethroned> Windows Vista 64 bit vs Ubuntu 9.04.  Should I dual boot or say "screw you windows?"
[02:44] <limpc> mobi-sheep: thanks for your help!
[02:44] <mobi-sheep> limpc: For time being, use different website / computer.
[02:44] <lstarnes> thugnasty: you could try ndiswrapper
[02:45] <PhotoJim> Dethroned: that depends.  suggest dual booting until you know you don't need Windows anymore.
[02:45] <kartawirya> thuhnasty, windows driver only for windows, not for Linux variant
[02:45] <lstarnes> thugnasty: it is possible that there may be a native linux driver for it that works better on linux
[02:45] <JackB21> I have windows on my laptop, can I install linux in another partition, install virtualbox on it, and run on virtualbox my installed windows( in the other partition)?
[02:45] <Hyperbuddha> screw windows
[02:45] <DarkRavin> !tab
[02:45] <mobi-sheep> Dethroned: Install Ubuntu.  Use Windows in VirtualBox (for Office and such). ;)
[02:45] <limpc> mobi-sheep: yeah i have freemind, can make do with that
[02:45] <mobi-sheep> Dethroned: If you use Windows for gaming... you want dual-boot.
[02:45] <thugnasty> where can i go to see if there is a linux drive then?
[02:46] <mobi-sheep> thugnasty: There are no "drivers" in linux.  Everything is in kernel. ;)
[02:46] <lstarnes> thugnasty: what mdoel is the card
[02:46] <lstarnes> mobi-sheep: there are drivers
[02:46] <limpc> mobi-sheep: oohh forgot i had XP installed under virtualbox.  suppose I can use that for flash lol.
[02:46] <lstarnes> mobi-sheep: what do you think the kernel modules are?
[02:47] <thugnasty> shows how much im new to linux lol
[02:47] <thugnasty> its a bradcom
[02:47] <DarkRavin> DasEi are you there
[02:47] <mobi-sheep> lstarnes: Other way of drivers?
[02:47] <lstarnes> mobi-sheep: essentially, many of them are drivers
[02:47] <kartawirya> Dethroned: or just install virtualbox, install Windows on virtualbox then you can game from there
[02:47] <DasEi> DarkRavin: yes
[02:47] <rtnar> thanks guys
[02:47] <Gustavo> Is there anyway I can have Ubuntu automatically detect my monitor and figure out which resolutions to put in the xorg.conf file?
[02:47] <rtnar> i luv u <3
[02:48] <Dethroned> kartawirya: it might be a hassle for multiplayer gaming because it might be detected as a hack
[02:48] <DarkRavin> DasEi did you see the ifconfig
[02:48] <paijo_keren> we
[02:49] <DasEi> DarkRavin: yes, so hardware is in order; paste the out from : sudo fdisk -l

[03:05] <Joker_-_> I'm trying to install w32codecs but I get a weird error telling me that it requires libstdc++ but for some reasons the package would be broken or something like that... I read somewhere that it has to do with a newer version installed but I just cannot find any solution.

[03:07] <marqueed> if i have, say, six monitors, four of which are in a square, do you think i can make compiz treat the four monitors as one side of a cube and leave the other two as permanent desktops??
[03:07] <sebsebseb> Hyperbuddha: what's  iscsi?
[03:07] <Joker_-_> woody79: thats where the problem risen from

[03:09] <tree_> is there a command to reinstall xorg or have ubuntu refind my video card ?
[03:09] <Joker_-_> I htink something is wrong with the repositories... I can't find tilda nor pastebin... thats wako

[03:11] <[Crussd2]> how to change ubuntu to kde??
[03:11] <jackstraw> I am trying to play open arena and my sound is all messed up what can I do to fix this
[03:11] <kartawirya> Gustavo: if you use ubuntu and try looking from panel, that should on System > Preferences > Dislplay
[03:11] <boss_mc> !kde | [Crussd2]
[03:11] <stealth-> how can I tell what programs are using a mount point?
[03:11] <Gustavo> boss_mc  I need to have my video card "refound" too. But when I run the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, it goes directly to some kernel frame buffer screen, and doesn't ask anything relevant to my video card afterwards
[03:12] <jeffrey_> [Crussd2], sudo apt-get install kde-desktop
[03:12] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: http://pastebin.com/m51307eb6
[03:12] <sebsebseb> or
[03:12] <sebsebseb> kubuntu-desktop
[03:12] <PhotoJim> stealth-: lsofs
[03:12] <sebsebseb> in fact it's kubuntu-desktop
[03:12] <jeffrey_> [Crussd2], then log out and log back in and change session
[03:12] <stealth-> PhotoJim: thanks
[03:12] <[Crussd2]> thnks ;)
[03:12] <[Crussd2]> i will do it ;)
[03:12] <jeffrey_> [Crussd2], sebsebseb is right its kubuntu-desktop, install from synaptic or command line then restart and change session
[03:13] <sebsebseb> also  probably better to do aptitude instead of apt-get for that one, but it probably won't matter that much
[03:13] <DasEi> DarkRavin:    got it ?
[03:13] <[Crussd2]> ;)
[03:13] <stealth-> PhotoJim: command not found :( do I have to install it?
[03:13] <boss_mc> Joker_-_: it sounds like your repositories are set up wrong, 1:3.3.6 is the in the standard ones
[03:13] <[Crussd2]> thanks jeffrey_
[03:13] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: Im on it...
[03:13] <shamas> anybody?
[03:14] <sebsebseb> !anybody |  shamas
  Use kernel framebuffer device interface?       is what it says , should I ?
[03:14] <PhotoJim> stealth-: lsof, sorry.  :)
[03:14] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: to me, sourcelist looks just fine
[03:14] <stealth-> PhotoJim: k, thx.
[03:14] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: its a fresh install btw
[03:14] <boss_mc> Joker_-_: jaunty?
[03:14] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: yup
[03:14] <shamas> I've installed adesklets from synaptic package manager
[03:14] <CrAzYc0d3r>  /server irc.mildnet.org
[03:14] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: xubunu jaunty
[03:15] <shamas> I've downloaded some desklets from gnome-look.org
[03:15] <_2eXtreme> tree_, eh, i cant actually remember sorry...lemme check the docs
[03:15] <shamas> but when I try and run the .py file
[03:15] <boss_mc> Joker_-_: try sudo aptitude show libstdc++5
[03:15] <shamas> I keep getting the same bunch of errors...
[03:15] <boss_mc> Joker_-_: see which version it gives
[03:15] <DarkRavin> DasEi ok now what
[03:16] <voss> !really | sebsebseb
[03:16] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: says theres no version
[03:16] <jackstraw> i am trying to play open arena and my sound is all messed up and the graphics slows down at certain points of the game is there anything that I can do to fix this problom
[03:16] <Joker_-_> says its not found and not a real package
[03:16] <boss_mc> Joker_-_: I assume you've done a successful apt-get/aptitude update?
[03:16] <_2eXtreme> tree_, try yes for now
[03:16] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: yup
[03:16] <DasEi> DarkRavin: inserted,saved closed ?
[03:17] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: it tickles me that I cannot find many packages tho... might be my repository?
[03:17] <Revelation> I am new to ubuntu and linux can someone help me install compiz.
[03:17] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: maybe theres a problem with the default canadian repository
[03:17] <boss_mc> Joker_-_: which repository are you using?
[03:17] <DarkRavin> DasEi yes its saved and closed
[03:17] <Mike_lifeguard> Revelation: sure -- you probably want to /join #compiz for that
[03:17] <Revelation> ok
[03:17] <cowgarden> Revelation, just enable desktop effects in the settings, it's allready installed
[03:17] <boss_mc> Joker_-_: switch to standard ubuntu repo, just to try it out
[03:17] <Joker_-_> yup. 2 sec
[03:17] <Revelation> where cowgarden?
[03:18] <DasEi> DarkRavin: (paper) write down : sudo ifup eth0 dhcp
[03:18] <Sylphid> im having some problems with my wifes new jaunty install... nautilus is seg faulting.... it does this on the live cd as well as the final install however my machine with near identical specs works fine .... any ideas?
[03:18] <Mike_lifeguard> Revelation: System>Preferences>Appearance IIRC
[03:18] <Revelation> thanks
[03:18] <Mike_lifeguard> Revelation: on the last tab
[03:18] <DasEi> DarkRavin: http://www.wikihow.com/Set-up-a-Network-in-Ubuntu
[03:18] <DarkRavin> DasEi yes i did
[03:18] <zcat[1]> Sylphid: ram test?
[03:18] <Mike_lifeguard> Revelation: but I'd recommend setting up ccsm
[03:18] <Revelation> how do I install compiz plugins?
[03:18] <cowgarden> Revelation, somwhere in the appereance settings, a tab quite far to the right If I remember it right
[03:18] <DasEi> DarkRavin: call that link, save from browser to desktop
[03:19] <cowgarden> no more zattoo for linux :(
[03:19] <Gustavo> I cannot find "Screen and Graphics" in 8.10
[03:19] <Sylphid> zcat[1], running now ... at 65% with no failures so far
[03:19] <jamiejackson> i'm trying to mount a mystery ide drive via usb, but i don't know the filesystem, etc. how can i get it mounted?
[03:19] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: wow... a bad repository. Default canadian repos is broken.
[03:20] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: switching to default ubuntu repos, w32codecs installed like a charm
[03:20] <DasEi> DarkRavin: now reboot into native ubuntu(hd), if networks isn't working, try command, also failure > read wiki on your desktop
[03:20] <boss_mc> Joker_-_: leave it for a while, see if it works tomorrow, the repos do die sometimes
[03:20] <jeffrey_> hey does anyone know a good small biz crm for ubuntu?  native is favored but web-based is fine
[03:20] <Mike_lifeguard> Revelation: using Synaptic, install compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-plugins (and any dependencies)
[03:20] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: wow, never tought something set as "default" would be unreliable :/
[03:20] <DasEi> DarkRavin: sudo reboot (and take cd out when beep comes) ;-)
[03:21] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: at least now I do have pastebinit :)
[03:21] <boss_mc> Joker_-_: well, that's the nature of the beast... sometimes a mirror won't be correct
[03:21] <boss_mc> Joker_-_: awesome
[03:21] <zcat[1]> NZ repos sometimes get screwed up too.. I just switch to the au ones until they unbork it..
[03:21] <Joker_-_> Damn Murphy's law...
[03:21] <zcat[1]> bloody community os, nobody's accountable dammin! ;)
[03:21] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: thanks for opening my eyes :)
[03:22] <DasEi> DarkRavin: I'll leave soon, and I wish you good luck
[03:22] <zcat[1]> broken mirror! seven years bad luck?
[03:24] <click170> Does the 'Connect To Server' thing in the Places menu not handle NFS?  I can't get it to do an NFS mount.  I know how to do it from cli, but.... wtf?

[03:25] <MachinTrucChose> Hi. I'm currently running Kubuntu, but my CDROM drive is damaged. How can I install Ubuntu on this computer (replacing Kubuntu) from the ISO, without having to burn it to a CD?
[03:25] <DarkRavin> DasEi TKS 4 the help
[03:25] <sebsebseb> chris__: hi wasup
[03:25] <chris__> from usb
[03:25] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: as we're at it, any idea why the sound would not work on a thinkpad? I gotta look at the bios, apparently disabling the modem might cause that. Any other toughts?
[03:25] <DasEi> DarkRavin: rave brighter 8-)
[03:26] <ultmate> Hello there...
[03:26] <sebsebseb> !install |  MachinTrucChose
[03:26] <zcat[1]> MachinTrucChose: convert the iso to a bootable USB stick
[03:26] <ultmate> I have a problem with my Flash Player...
[03:26] <sebsebseb> !details |  ultmate
[03:26] <boss_mc> !sound | Joker_-_ I assume you've read this...
[03:26] <MachinTrucChose> zcat: damn, how did that not show up in my google searches. Thanks!
[03:27] <ultmate> ok... ok... let's see...
[03:27] <debrisrat> all people have any problems on flash player, what  happend :S
[03:27] <jmk6f4> Whenever I try to insert a CD, it always says "Cannot Mount volume" and the details state that the mount point /media/cdrom0 does not exist.  I have tried to rename /media/cdrom to cdrom0, but it does something else and still don't work.
[03:27] <zcat[1]> System > Admin > USB Startup disk creator
[03:27] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: the problem is deeper than that, clicking on the sound icon would tell me there is no soundcard foud :)
[03:27] <sebsebseb> debrisrat: yeah seems a lot of people are having issues with installing it,  any other issues are Adobe's fault though, since closed source
[03:27] <zcat[1]> at least on KK, I think JJ had it too
[03:27] <debrisrat> :S :(
[03:27] <boss_mc> Joker_-_: ah...
[03:28] <Gustavo> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg goes directly into some "frame buffer" option, and doesn't automatically detect my video card. Any suggestions?
[03:28] <debrisrat> have you any problems on flash player ?
[03:28] <debrisrat> sebsebseb:   have you any problems on flash player ?
[03:28] <boss_mc> Joker_-_: model?
[03:28] <sebsebseb> debrisrat: I had problems with it before on former installs of Ubuntu, and with the Firefox there, but  otherwise nah
[03:28] <Sylphid> zcat[1], memtest ran through a full pass with no errors... anything else i should try?
[03:29] <debrisrat> has it bug ? or problems =?
[03:29] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: ill check the bios as a first step and we'll see after that. I wont see that screen for the next minutes so if you have an idea, tell it in PV. Model is said to be (on the back of the laptop): 7650-eef
[03:29] <Joker_-_> brb
[03:29] <debrisrat> sebsebseb:  has it bug ? or problems =?
[03:29] <boss_mc> Joker_-_: good luck
[03:30] <sebsebseb> debrisrat: no one can fix Flash bugs, except for Adobe, and yes  Flash can be rather buggy
[03:30] <paduka> helo al
[03:30] <sebsebseb> debrisrat: and it can have security issues and such
[03:30] <zcat[1]> Sylphid: exorcisim? Umm.. I presume it doesn't do the same from the live CD. New install though. weird.
[03:30] <paduka> helo alll
[03:30] <debrisrat>  sebsebseb  is it reported ??
[03:30] <sebsebseb> debrisrat: there have been  articles before about security issues in  the  Flash player
[03:31] <debrisrat> hımmm
[03:31] <_2eXtreme> hey guys, in my sound preferences for the alsa mixer, how can i ensure the iec958 switch is always ticked? i have to tick it every time i boot
[03:31] <debrisrat> sebsebseb:  i hope, pass it :S :(
[03:31] <jmk6f4> Whenever I try to insert a CD, it always says "Cannot Mount volume" and the details state that the mount point /media/cdrom0 does not exist.  I have tried to rename /media/cdrom to cdrom0, but it does something else and still don't work.  Any ideas?
[03:31] <sebsebseb> debrisrat: closed source software tend to be slow at getting  bugs fixed, well depends on the vender,  opensource/freesoftware are usually  much quicker at fixing security issues and such,  depends on the project as well though
[03:32] <Sylphid> zcat[1], both HD fresh install and live cd fail on one box but not the other .... only hardware differences are 768 vs 512 and a different wireless card
[03:32] <zcat[1]> jmk6f4: I think /media/cdrom0 is supposed to be an empty directory and /mdeia/cdrom is a simlink to /mdeia/cdrom0
[03:32] <debrisrat> i hope, sebsebseb  :|
[03:32] <Gustavo> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg goes directly into some "frame buffer" option, and doesn't automatically detect my video card. Any suggestions?
[03:32] <elite_prodigy> Can anyone help me, or point me to a *really* good tutorial on networking my Vista and Ubuntu 9 machines?
[03:32] <Joeseph> I'm following this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently to mount a Win Share drive.  Should I use cifs or smbfs if I am sharing from a vista computer? It just says "cifs if Windows Server 2003 or later".
[03:32] <Sylphid> zcat[1], s/512/512MB ram/
[03:32] <voss> I tried installing mint 7, it was so much more confusing than Ubuntu
[03:33] <elite_prodigy> I can't seem to find anything for the latest Ubuntu release.
[03:33] <sebsebseb> elite_prodigy: no, but if you want to share files between them, I can get the bot to link  to something
[03:33] <jmk6f4> zcat[1]: You would be correct, as /media/cdrom is a syslink to cdrom0, but there actually is no /media/cdrom0, should I create it and how should I go about it?
[03:33] <zcat[1]> Sylphid: well, I'd start by swapping the wireless cards perhaps.
[03:33] <jeffrey_> hey does anyone know a good small biz crm for ubuntu?  native is favored but web-based is fine
[03:33] <zcat[1]> jmk6f4: sudo mkdir /media/cdrom0 ; sudo chmod a+rwx /dev/media/cdrom
[03:33] <debrisrat> hoı
[03:34] <elite_prodigy> sebsebseb: What do you mean?
[03:34] <Sylphid> zcat[1], can try but i dont know why that would cause nautilus to seg  fault
[03:34] <debrisrat> how can i connect my pda to ubuntu ?
[03:34] <zcat[1]> Gnagh .. not /dev/media/cdrom ;)
[03:34] <sebsebseb> jeffrey_: you  have been asking that here and there for awhile now and so, well you have been paitent, but  I am doing it for the links
[03:34] <sebsebseb> !patience | jeffrey_
[03:34] <zcat[1]> I meant /media/cdrom0 again..
[03:34] <_2eXtreme> in my sound preferences for the alsa mixer, how can i ensure the iec958 switch is always ticked? i have to tick it every time i boot
[03:34] <jmk6f4> zcat[1]: I figured just as much.  :)
[03:34] <ultmate> I did a clean installation of Ubuntu 9.04, run all the updates and stuff... The thing is that whenever I try to play Restaurant City now, the game doesn't load, it does nothing. I used to play it perfectly but since I installed the new version, I just can't. I don't understand what the problem is. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling flashplugin-nonfree, going to Abode.com to download again the player for what I've read but still nothing.
[03:34] <debrisrat> :))
[03:35] <thatguy> how do you set up dual monitors
[03:35] <thatguy> i use intel 965 chipset
[03:35] <debrisrat> ultmate:  thats all ??
[03:36] <hkm_> ls
[03:36] <zcat[1]> jmk6f4: actually ignore that last one, just a+rx (I as looking at the flags on the simlink)
[03:36] <niuby> how can i send parameters in a ANSI C program ? my program is test.c and im using gcc compiler..
[03:36] <jmk6f4> zcat[1]: What part should I ignore?  The writable chmod?
[03:36] <zcat[1]> jmk6f4: sudo mkdir /media/cdrom0 ; sudo chmod a+rx /media/cdrom0  (no w)
[03:37] <ibmman> sup bigjoker playing a game of cards today?
[03:37] <uskrewed> Are there any other browsers that use less CPU than firefox?
[03:37] <hkm_> quit
[03:37] <jmk6f4> zcat[1]: Yes sir.  Well it worked with the writable, but I will change that now.  Thank you tremendously for your help!
[03:37] <zcat[1]> not sure what the default flags are but mine here is +rwxr-xr-x
[03:37] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: of course, but what is your actsual issue?
[03:37] <boss_mc> niuby: what do you mean by 'send parameters'?
[03:37] <hkm_> exit
[03:37] <uskrewed> my CPU usage seems to jump fairly high and my computer/firefox lag
[03:38] <uskrewed> I have an AMD 4000 and 3gb ram
[03:38] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: yep I have had that,  it happens when you got a lot of tabs open, and some Flash open in them
[03:38] <sebsebseb> ?
[03:38] <uskrewed> yes
[03:38] <zcat[1]> uskrewed: dillo !
[03:38] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: well I just told you why
[03:38] <DebrisRat> ::D
[03:38] <boss_mc> uskrewed: lynx !
[03:38] <niuby> boss_mc , i need send parameters ... for example in bash i can send parameters with ./bashprogram param1 param2 etc.... and can i identify with $1 $2 etc.. but here ?
[03:38] <uskrewed> so firefox just leaks memory from flash?
[03:38] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: Flash is probably what is mainly causing it
[03:38] <uskrewed> wouldn't that problem be apparent with any browser using flash?
[03:38] <devi1> I need help changing the default display mode for ubuntu... it won't work with my default monitor
[03:39] <boss_mc> niuby: this is well OT (it's not an ubuntu support issue), take it to #ubuntu-offtopic?
[03:39] <zcat[1]> firefox3 fixed most of the memory leaks, not sure about flash.. probably leaks like a sieve...
[03:39] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: nope other browsers work great with Flash it seems
[03:39] <niuby> boss_mc do u know an ansi c unix channel? :p
[03:39] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: it's to to do with how  the version of FIrefox Ubuntu has deals with Flash
[03:39] <drone> could anyone assist me with some peculiar sound issues in ubuntu 9.04?
[03:39] <boss_mc> niuby: #c ?
[03:39] <crdlb> niuby: ##c, but don't try asking a question like that in there
[03:39] <devi1> can anybody give me a helping hand?
[03:40] <Blz> !ask|drone
[03:40] <crdlb> niuby: you need to learn the basics from a good C book first
[03:40] <uskrewed> boss and zcat recommended lynx. what would you suggest, sebsebseb?
[03:40] <zcat[1]> no, I recomended dillo ;)
[03:40] <uskrewed> right, sorry :P
[03:40] <Blz> drone:  sound is tricky on ubuntu -- have you checked if your card is supported?
[03:40] <sebsebseb> drone: maybe, but I like this  bot trigger and so
[03:40] <sebsebseb> !anybody | drone
[03:40] <devi1> xorg.conf is pretty well blank and i'm not familiar with ubuntu
[03:40] <ibmman> sup phillips
[03:41] <Joker_-_> boss_mc: no options in that bios... its a leenovo r61e
[03:41] <sebsebseb> drone: oh  nevermind I didn't read it all you already put about sound
[03:41] <Joker_-_> imma google that
[03:41] <phillipsm> ibmman: you talking to me?
[03:41] <uskrewed> so sebsebseb which browser do you suggest?
[03:41] <phillipsm> lol
[03:41] <zcat[1]> using ff3.5b4 here but I suspect there are better browsers.. I have a gig of ram or more in all my machines now ;)
[03:41] <ibmman> yes how r u?
[03:41] <phillipsm> ibmman: good...do i know you?
[03:41] <Sylphid> zcat[1], not the wireless card
[03:41] <humberto> alguien aqui habla español
[03:41] <Blz> uskrewed:  you could try chromium, but I think it's still in alpha or something like that
[03:41] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: yep you could  get a version directly from Mozilla and try that,  even  the development versions of Firefox are pretty stable, and so   Firefox  3.5  Beta 4 would be ok
[03:41] <ibmman> good my name is bab
[03:42] <sebsebseb> !es |  humberto
[03:42] <drone> I'm running ubuntu 9.04 64 bit with a tv as a monitor by way of dvi-to-hdmi and audio via mini-to-stereo rca Y cable. I have video but no sound. Weird thing is, I booted an 8.10 live cd and also a couple others such as fedora 9 and slax and they all had sound.
[03:42] <uskrewed> okay so uninstall firefox and then grab it directly from mozilla, sebsebseb?
[03:42] <zcat[1]> Sylphid: so nothing weird in dmesg or /var/log/messages
[03:42] <uskrewed> or just install it on top of
[03:42] <drone> whats worse is I can plug in speakers to the computer and unplug the tv and I get sound out of them
[03:42] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: it's worth a try,  but  you might still get those issues
[03:42] <uskrewed> blz google chrome? or is there another browser that goes by that name
[03:42] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: and I think you can have both versions installed, it's just they might fight over  .mozilla in home
[03:42] <elite_prodigy> Anyone know how to network Vista and Ubuntu together so Printers can be shared?
[03:43] <Blz> uskrewed:  chromium is the linux port of chrome
[03:43] <Gustavo> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg goes directly into some "frame buffer" option, and doesn't automatically detect my video card. Any suggestions?
[03:43] <devi1> I just need to get it to default display at 1024x768 for all users plus log in...
[03:43] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: there is a Google Chrome alpha for Linux now,  one guy said it's good
[03:43] <Sylphid> zcat[1], checking
[03:43] <zcat[1]> I have both ff3.0 and 3.5 installed, evry time I switch it checks all my plugins for updates..
[03:43] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: ,but for market share reasons, it's probably best to stay with Firefox if you can
[03:43] <Blz> drone:  how is your sound card connected to the computer?
[03:43] <Blz> oh sorry
[03:43] <zcat[1]> other than that it works fine.
[03:43] <Blz> nvm
[03:43] <drone> its on the mobo
[03:43] <uskrewed> to help FF's numbers, sebsebseb?
[03:43] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: yep
[03:43] <zcat[1]> so I mostly just stick with 3.5
[03:43] <uskrewed> hehe
[03:44] <drone> Blz: Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)
[03:44] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: it is the most used browser after the worst of all Internet Explorer
[03:44] <Blz> drone:  I'm afraid I don't have a lot to offer, but have you checked for proprietary drivers?
[03:44] <uskrewed> I was shocked to hera that IE has 60%
[03:44] <uskrewed> people are utterly retarded
[03:44] <zcat[1]> I still haven't even looked at chrome. perhaps I should
[03:44] <drone> Blz: no, not yet, but only because it works fine in 8.10 and also works fine if I just plug in speakers
[03:44] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: heh heh
[03:45] <ibmman> su bindumin frank sa fina de a hina simawanaki
[03:45] <zcat[1]> people are lazy.. MSIE comes preinstalled on >>60% of machines
[03:45] <Blz> drone:  I'd try that first.  beyond that, I really don't know.  Sorry!
[03:45] <uskrewed> I haven't used IE since I discovered navigator way back when
[03:45] <Blz> drone:  any reason you can't use 8.10?
[03:45] <uskrewed> shit, it was bundled with windows back in the day
[03:45] <Blz> drone:  or 8.04 LTS?
[03:45] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: then again  on the other hand webkit could be better to make websites for than Gecko now days really
[03:45] <ultmate> Is there anything I could do? It seems to me that the FLASH Plugin isn't recognized by Mozilla no matter what I do...
[03:45] <uskrewed> zcat my problem with chrome is the lack of addon support
[03:45] <Blz> ultmate:  how are you trying to install the flash plugin?
[03:45] <drone> Blz: I really like the performance with 9.04
[03:45] <Blz> ultmate:  are you just using the browser?
[03:45] <uskrewed> I don't think I'd manage without adblock and noscript
[03:45] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: Mozilla  and Netscape use  Gecko  to display pages,  Safari and Chrome use  Webkit
[03:46] <Blz> drone:  yeah, I hear you... sucks sometiems =)
[03:46] <drone> Blz: plus I'd rather figure this out. It's a strange situation indeed ;)
[03:46] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: Epiphany and Galeon are nice little Gnome browsers,  use Gecko by default, but  one of them or both could use webkit even
[03:46] <zcat[1]> uskrewed: mine too, but then 3.5 isn't supporting many of the plugins I like.. chrome has adblockplus, etc.. I think I could live with it.
[03:46] <Blz> drone:  lol yeah... those seem to happen a lot under *nix.  good luck!
[03:46] <devi1> Can anybody help me change the display defaults to 1024x768?
[03:46] <Blz> ultmate:  did you get that?
[03:47] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: and  Webkit is based on KHTML what Konqueror uses
[03:47] <Blz> devi1:  have you tried the display manager?
[03:47] <sebsebseb> !browsers >  uskrewed
[03:47] <uskrewed> I recently discovered that, sebsebseb, when I accidentally loaded it up and my addons were installed on them
[03:47] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: discovered what?
[03:47] <ultmate> yes, the regular way
[03:47] <uskrewed> that they use gecko as a base
[03:47] <Gustavo> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg goes directly into some "frame buffer" option, and doesn't automatically detect my video card. Any suggestions?
[03:47] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: ah yes I forgot about Seamonkey that's good as well,   Mozilla Suite didn't hit off marketshare wise,  so  along comes Firefox,  but  the suites code lives on as Seamonkey
[03:48] <uskrewed> seamonkey looks and feels like netscape to me, so it was kinda nice using it
[03:48] <devi1> Blz: I'm not familiar with ubuntu, but I need to change it for all users even log in. the problem is the old dell monitor we have here will not show any other display modes... when i used display preferences as soon as i rebooted it went back to a different mode out of range for the monitor.
[03:48] <uskrewed> I haven't given it a chance yet
[03:48] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: Opera  must be the 3rd most popular browser, but that's closed source,   and it has it's own rendering engine  Presto
[03:49] <tad1073> and no gnome support
[03:49] <Sylphid> zcat[1], thanks!! that was the nudge i needed..... it was segfaulting on libbrasero-media ... purged it and it worked... gonna try to reinstall it and see if it works
[03:49] <Blz> devi1:  are you using proprietary drivers?
[03:49] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: loads of  good browsers out there,  but  probably better to browse more mainstream sites using Firefox really,  because of market share reasons
[03:49] <devi1> Blz: None
[03:50] <uskrewed> isn't Opera by mozilla?
[03:50] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: no
[03:50] <Joeseph> Hi. I'm trying to mount my Windows share with fstab.  I've got it all working, except that It can't resolve the name of the windows share.  Could I provide the Workgroup that it is in so it can find the Name?
[03:50] <Blz> devi1:  try going through system>display
[03:50] <devi1> Blz: I was going to edit xorg.conf but it's strangely and alien bare...
[03:50] <Blz> it's something like that
[03:50] <zcat[1]> Sylphid: ahhhh.. so try a different optical drive perhaps?
[03:50] <Blz> devi1:  try it graphically first
[03:50] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: Opera is made by the Norweigan  Opera Software
[03:50] <devi1> Blz: that's the one where settings did not hold...
[03:50] <uskrewed> okay, thank you sebsebseb
[03:51] <uskrewed> I'm going to give seamonkey a try and see how it handles
[03:51] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: I prefer Galeon and Epiphany when it comes to alternatives
[03:51] <BrokenMinds> Hey whats the best application to handle your Ipod on ubuntu 9.4
[03:51] <Blz> devi1:   oooh. right. sorry
[03:51] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: ,but Seamonkey has addons and themes and such
[03:51] <tad1073> seamonky is just like netscape
[03:51] <Sylphid> zcat[1], possibly.... gonna try to reseat 1st just to see
[03:51] <mib_kr7uboje> What sound and video card should I use in this junk parts build? http://pastebin.com/m2bff56b3
[03:51] <sebsebseb> tad1073: that's right
[03:51] <Blz> devi1:  sanity check:  are you an admin on the machine?
[03:51] <uskrewed> the addons and the netscape thing are whats making me want to try seamonkey
[03:51] <devi1> Blz: No worries, any place I can find a text file in ubuntu to edit it there. Indeed I am, good question.
[03:52] <BeatlesFan> hey all
[03:52] <sebsebseb> tad1073: Netscape Navigatour lives on as Seamonkey, since it failed  living on as Mozilla Suite
[03:52] <uskrewed> I'll take a look at epiphany as well, thank you
[03:52] <Joeseph> Do I need to install samba in order to resolve windows host names?
[03:52] <tad1073> I used to like netscape, but now I think the UI is crap
[03:52] <sebsebseb> uskrewed: sudo apt-get install epiphany-browser or you end up installing some game
[03:52] <Blz> devi1:  hmm... can you pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[03:52] <devi1> yeah one min
[03:53] <uskrewed> I already had it installed, as well as a few other browsers, I just haven't had the time/want to test it out
[03:53] <sebsebseb> tad1073: what most web users don't reolize is that  it dosan't really matter that much  what end user features a browser can do as long as it can open webpages,  under the hood though now that's important
[03:53] <uskrewed> thank you though
[03:53] <zcat[1]> can't they just accept nobody actually wants one huge program that tries to do everything, we already have emacs! ;)
[03:53] <sebsebseb> tad1073: what webstandards coding a browser suppourts or dosan't support
[03:53] <BeatlesFan> sebsebseb, and do so securely
[03:53] <sebsebseb> BeatlesFan: security yeah, but  I would argue  that web standards support is more important when it comes to browsers
[03:54] <tad1073> yeah, but it has to be aesthetically pleasing too
[03:54] <thatguy> i use intel 965 chipset and i'm trying to set up dual monitors, but my second monitor won't turn on even when i set it up my comp for dual monitors any help?
[03:54] <Blz> ooh my... do I smell OT?  Will I get to unleash ubuttu's rage on everyone??? =)
[03:54] <devi1> Blz: http://pastebin.com/mb1b9c52
[03:54] <Joeseph> How do I get Ubuntu to resolve Windows host names?
[03:54] <sebsebseb> Blz: I guess it's off topic, but it's also useful off topic
[03:55] <Blz> sebsebseb:  haha I don't really care. I go OT all the time...
[03:55] <tad1073> edit samba
[03:55] <Blz> but it is fun to !offtopic

[03:56] <thatguy> hello?

[03:56] <sebsebseb> Blz  and tad1073   I think  time to stop with stuff like that, even though I am not op
[03:56] <zcat[1]> Joeseph: not really. I try to avoid windows.. but if you have a windows domain the domain server is also a dns server and names like 'host.mydomain' should resolve to an ip address tehre
[03:56] <devi1> Blz: My issue? Yay command prompt... :-|
[03:56]  * devi1 is not enthusiastic...
[03:57] <tad1073> ok
[03:57] <Blz> devi1:  hmm... damned if I know...
[03:57] <coreyman> Are there any programs for ubuntu where I can create and compile flash and actionscript applications
[03:57] <sebsebseb> coreyman: doubt it since both are horrible
[03:57] <cryptide> sebsebseb++
[03:58] <sebsebseb> cryptide: :d :)
[03:58] <BeatlesFan> any volunteers to try and help me get this video card working?
[03:58] <jamiejackson> i'm trying to copy contents of home directories off an old drive onto a new one. how do i make the destination permissions appropriate for each user, or will i have to chown everything after the move?
[03:58] <coreyman> well i would use java if it didn't take so long for my client to download it.... but it takes forever... so im left with one other choice
[03:58] <zcat[1]> coreyman: flasm?
[03:58] <Joker_-_> well... Can't find a way to have sound working on that lenovo r61e
[03:59] <Joker_-_> anyone has an idea?
[03:59] <coreyman> zcat[1] checking
[03:59] <zcat[1]> coreyman: mtasc also
[03:59] <Joeseph> zcat[1]: When I view the pc with nautilus, I get "Location:     smb://Name_of_Pc/"    When I am mounting in fstab, It can't find  //Name_of_Pc/     Do I need to give it the Workgroup too or something?
[03:59] <zcat[1]> coreyman: apt-cache search actionscript ;)
[03:59] <thatguy> i really need to get this to work does anyone have any resources?
[04:00] <Joker_-_> aparently the sound card isnt detected on that lenovo r61e (laptop)
[04:00] <devi1> Blz: well thanks for trying
[04:00] <BeatlesFan> Joker_-_ , did you look in the forums?
[04:00] <Joker_-_> BeatlesFan: I googled for an hour or so...
[04:00] <Blz> devi1:  yeah sorry... I can fix obvious problems, but this doesn't appear to be one.
[04:01] <BeatlesFan> Joker_-_: right.. same here for my video card
[04:01] <mib_kr7uboje> Intel i740 AGP, ATI Rage II+ DVD PCI, Creative Labs CT7230 PCI, SIS 6326 AGP, S3 Virge w/ Stealth 3D 2000 PCI, S3 Savage4 GT AGP, what one will work best in Edubuntu? I don't remember anything aboiut these cads other then I know that the intel and ati cards have foss drivers but reviews for all seem to be non existant
[04:01] <sebsebseb> !intel |  mib_kr7uboje
[04:01] <zcat[1]> Joeseph: For a workgroup, no.. there's some funky thing you can do with resolvconf I think, make it use samba to resolve names... there's a pointer for you anyhow, now go google it ;)
[04:01] <coreyman> thanks zcat[1]
[04:01] <devi1> Blz: *nods* no worries I'm sure it's just a config problem somewhere that has to be over ridden with a display mode i can use...
[04:01] <sebsebseb> mib_kr7uboje: some intel stuff mentioned in the release notes as well
[04:02] <sebsebseb> !notes | mib_kr7uboje
[04:02] <Joeseph> zcat[1]: Thanks.... I'll keep on googling as I was.....   So is it googling or googleing?
[04:02] <mib_kr7uboje> JoesephThe goggles, they do nothing
[04:02] <thatguy> i use intel 965 chipset and i'm trying to set up dual monitors, but my second monitor won't turn on even when i set it up my comp for dual monitors any help?
[04:03] <zcat[1]> Joeseph: I guess you could google that too..
[04:03] <Joker_-_> anyone got time to try to fix my problem? Sound card isnt detected in that lenovo r61e laptop...
[04:03] <test34> Joeseph: its called searching
[04:03] <sebsebseb> thatguy: check above with the  bot links and such I just gave now that have stuff  to do with Intel,  just check  nothing applys to you
[04:04] <sebsebseb> thatguy: the stuff above just now
[04:04] <mib_kr7uboje> ubottu yeah I was reading about that on phoronix, I figure just install 8.10
[04:04] <Joeseph> test34: Oh.  My mistake
[04:04] <zcat[1]> test34: no it's googling. I like verbing my nouns!
[04:04] <sebsebseb> thatguy: and dual monitors can be a bit tricky to set up I think, even though I never done it
[04:04] <sebsebseb> thatguy: is there an xorg tutorial or something for it hum
[04:04] <Joker_-_> sebsebseb: works flawlessly with nvidia tho.
[04:04] <sebsebseb> !xorg > thatguy
[04:05] <sml1226> trying to compile and get error message No package 'gtk+-2.0' found , how can I fix this
[04:05] <devi1> I'll be back later going to try rebooting and changing a few things
[04:05] <thatguy> well it should just system->prefs->display
[04:05] <Joker_-_> anyone got time to try to fix my problem? Sound card isnt detected in that lenovo r61e laptop...

[04:06] <mib_032qwrtx> looking for help-- LOST PASSWORD
[04:06] <Joeseph> zcat[1]: Got it to work! Thanks....   As soon as this finishes loading anyway.... man it's taking forever.
[04:06] <Joker_-_> sebsebseb: yeah... that supposes yur sound card is detected...
[04:06] <sebsebseb> mib_032qwrtx: You want to reset your Ubuntu password?
[04:06] <Joker_-_> sebsebseb: my actual problem is probably more of a module
[04:06] <mib_032qwrtx> yeah. cant login
[04:06] <deph1> Hi there. Does anyone know how to install a SuSe screensaver (Substrate) in Ubuntu?
[04:06] <Joker_-_> sebsebseb: like snd-hda-intel
[04:06] <sebsebseb> mib_032qwrtx: ok that's easy
[04:07] <sebsebseb> mib_032qwrtx: go into recovery mode from the bootloader,   then  do the  root prompt and then
[04:07] <sebsebseb> mib_032qwrtx: passwd username
[04:07] <sebsebseb> mib_032qwrtx: your username that is, and put in your new password twice
[04:07] <Joker_-_> sebsebseb: altho if I try to modprobe hda-snd-intel, it gives me an error...
[04:07] <sebsebseb> mib_032qwrtx: and do something resaonably long thath as letters and numbers in it at least,  so  you don't have a really insecure password
[04:08] <mib_032qwrtx> thanks sebsebseb
[04:08] <sebsebseb> Joker_-_: sound isn't my area
[04:08] <sebsebseb> mib_032qwrtx: np
[04:08] <Joker_-_> all config files nees .conf in etc/modprobe... blah blah blah
[04:08] <test34> mib_kr7uboje: voodoo ?
[04:08] <Joeseph> Ha! Now I can ssh over to my ubuntu machine to get my music library on my vista pc!
[04:08] <here4thegear> I'm wondering if this is a vmware issue or an ubuntu server thing here, maybe someone can help. I have ubuntu server 8.10 in vmware, apache is serving via the ip address I get as inet addr from ifconfig. I would like to be able to use putty from my windows box to do everything though. ip in browser from win works fine, but not in putty.
[04:08] <sebsebseb> Joeseph: ok
[04:09] <Joker_-_> here4thegear: has to do with port redirect imo
[04:09] <mib_kr7uboje> test34 list of the parts I've got collecting dust from machines I've found dumpster diving http://pastebin.com/m2bff56b3
[04:09] <sirmdmonster> hello m8's
[04:09] <Joker_-_> heath|work: the virtual machine has a different IP and you must forward the port to that virtual machine
[04:09] <fccf> here4thegear: do you have openssh-server installed?
[04:10] <rob_p> here4thegear, Did you install openssh-server on the virtual machine?
[04:10] <Joker_-_> heath|work: I have a similar setup here and it works just fine. Of course, you need openssh installed as fccf said :)
[04:10] <test34> mib_kr7uboje: research each of them, there isnt many
[04:10] <here4thegear> fccf rob_p no I did not.... can I apt-get it or is there another prefered method?
[04:11] <rob_p> here4thegear, That would be the right method, yes.
[04:11] <fccf> here4thegear: sudo apt-get install openssh-server --- do that
[04:11] <test34> but Im thinking ATI Rage II+ DVD or Savage4 for some unknown reason
[04:11] <mib_kr7uboje> test34 tried before I posted, not much at all to go on as the pages have long since been taken off any review site
[04:11] <fccf> here4thegear: then you can use putty (with the secure component) to access the server
[04:12] <Joeseph> Out of curiosity, how 'unsafe' is it to ssh with a password (opposed to public/private keys)? It's just for my home pc.  Isn't it just brute force password guess attacks I'm viable to?
[04:12] <Ult_m4t3> What's wrong with the FLASH PLUGIN? Mozilla doesn't recognize the player
[04:12] <hoonteke> Joeseph: it's not necessarily, but it's just easier to avoid mistakes if you use keys
[04:12] <fccf> Joseph: yep and after 3 or 5 (not sure) bad attempts it won't let you in
[04:12] <delaman> i am having a trouble with modprobe fuse, this is my error http://pastebin.com/m3b8da3e2
[04:12] <hoonteke> not to mention, just plain easier.
[04:13] <hoonteke> '$ ssh machine' can take you directly there, immediately, without pausing for a password
[04:13] <hoonteke> if it *does* pause and ask for a password, you can be almost assured that you're being Man-In-the-Middle attacked
[04:14] <Joeseph> hoonteke: I suppose so....  I guess I'll do that.  The logic I had before Doesn't even really make sense to me now. Thanks.
[04:14] <fccf> Joeseph: but if you don't have the ssh port forwarded through your router it would be impossible to access from outside your network
[04:14] <Joeseph> fccf: Yeah, I've done that.
[04:14] <hoonteke> Joeseph: the one hiccup is if you haven't figured out the .ssh/config and how to separate different keys for different hosts automatically
[04:14] <hoonteke> then you have to manually specify '-i path/to/private/key' which gets annoying
[04:15] <Joeseph> hoonteke: I plan on just ssh-ing to one pc right now anyway... I'll figure out the config later If I add more.
[04:15] <hoonteke> sounds good
[04:15] <chris_lenz123> nice
[04:16] <deph1> nvm, figured out how to install xscreensavers on Ubuntu
[04:16] <here4thegear> fccf rob_p thanks to both of you It is installing now :)
[04:16] <Treyh> What ubuntu version would you recommend running on a virtualization setup, 64 bit server, 8 gigs of ram (desktop, server, 32 or 64 bit)
[04:16] <hoonteke> Joeseph: I don't know how anal you are, but I'm pretty anal.  I name my keys in my ssh folder as such "hostname-date".  So, for example, one key I have: '~/.ssh/lina-19May2008'
[04:16] <rob_p> here4thegear, welcome
[04:17] <fccf> Treyh: is this going into production - how stable do you need?
[04:17] <tad1073> what is considered streaming? Is it when I go to a share on another computer and play music, videos, etc from there?
[04:17] <Treyh> fccf, yes production, and the VM's will be 32 bit windows server 2003
[04:17] <Treyh> fccf, i have about 2 weeks to test

[04:17] <hoonteke> Joeseph: of course, if you're worried about security, make sure that you keep the machine with the private keys secure, or consider adding a passphrase
[04:17] <sebsebseb> tad1073: streaming web cams with sound
[04:18] <hoonteke> if someone gets a hold of those private keys, and knows which machines to try ...
[04:18] <here4thegear> Ooooh this is sweet, I have it all installed and running, you people freaking rule
[04:18] <Libra102> TX packets:2323050 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:18 / TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) ? what's problem?
[04:18] <fccf> Treyh: use Hardy 8.04 32bit and virtualbox... how many servers?
[04:18] <Treyh> fccf, currently using server 9.04 but seems to use a lot more memory than i expected. when I have 3 VM's running with 1.25gigs of memory each, the server uses 7 gigs of ram total
[04:18] <Treyh> fccf, i'm also using vbox
[04:19] <fccf> Treyh: How much swap do you have?
[04:19] <PushaT> Guys, I'm on a i7 2.6ghz 8GB system wanting to dualboot with ubuntu............. Should i go for the x64 or x86? I'm not too experienced, but have used linux before for basic tasks like chatting, irc, etc... Is X64 linux widely supported with software, etc or should i stick to 32bit and be in the majority crowd??
[04:19] <Joeseph> hoonteke: Eh.   I feel that the odds of someone A. Finding the pc I use. B. Knowing Ubuntu C. Able to guess my user password. and D. Know what machine to go to and E. Know how to ssh, and F. Wants my information that badly,   is fairly minimal.
[04:20] <Treyh> fccf, chose the defaults, top shows 5g
[04:20] <tad1073> PushaT: 64 bit all the way
[04:20] <fccf> Treyh: is any of it being used?
[04:20] <hoonteke> Joeseph: yep.  That's pretty much my situation as well.  But, it needs to be said, at the point I'm giving adice about how to use ssh keys
[04:20] <hoonteke> :-)
[04:20] <Treyh> fccf, no and when i tried using 4 VM's, it maxed out the memory and did use swap, but the server basically froze
[04:21] <PushaT> tad1073 is apt get etc all same and auto gets x64 packages?
[04:21] <BeatlesFan> PushaT: depends on your CPU
[04:21] <lstarnes> PushaT: yes
[04:21] <PushaT> ai cool
[04:21] <tad1073> he has an i7
[04:21] <Joeseph> hoonteke: Yeah.  Thanks for the advice by the way.
[04:21] <joetheodd> PushaT, if you're on 64bit linux, apt-get will automagically find the 64bit packages
[04:21] <sebsebseb> PushaT: 64bit with 8GB RAM nice
[04:21] <hoonteke> PushaT: it's not nearly as big an issue in this crowd as it might be in a closed-source crowd.  Def go 64.  Don't limit how you can use your hardware.
[04:21] <sebsebseb> PushaT: then you definatly get 64bit
[04:22] <hoonteke> the software packages are there
[04:22] <fccf> Treyh: I personally think you will have much better luck with 8.04 as it is meant for servers and is supported until 2013 for servers
[04:22] <BeatlesFan> i7 is dual core?
[04:22] <sebsebseb> PushaT: yep can't use all your 8GB RAM on 32bit
[04:22] <tad1073> quad core
[04:22] <BeatlesFan> ahh
[04:22] <BeatlesFan> nice
[04:22] <Treyh> fccf, thank you, i have two of these servers, will try 8.04 on the second one tomorrow. desktop or server edition?
[04:22] <tad1073> the new quad core
[04:23] <PushaT> =)
[04:23] <tad1073> must be nice
[04:23] <hoonteke> how do I change the default programs used to open different files?  I've apparently set thunderbird to view png's when I use gnome-open or double-click on them.  Not-so-helpful ...
[04:23] <fccf> Treyh: install the server version and then install ubuntu-desktop so you can use the GUI for setting up your servers ... but keep the server kernel
[04:23] <PushaT> I highly recommend anyone to get this speced computer
[04:23] <sebsebseb> !default |  hoonteke
[04:23] <Treyh> fccf, so sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ?
[04:23] <tad1073> I have a q6700 quad core on my machine
[04:23] <hoonteke> Treyh: I'd actually receommend the opposite.  do *not* install ubuntu-desktop on the server
[04:24] <fccf> Treyh: yep after apt-get update
[04:24] <hoonteke> because, among other things, that installs the X server
[04:24] <BeatlesFan> nice thing about Ubuntu.. you can have a newer set up and it will blaze but it will also run a lot faster on older computers
[04:24] <PushaT> Games are like notepad on this thing... I can minmize em and burn cd's chat, etc and pop game back up running on max specs and play while things are going in background
[04:24] <BeatlesFan> compared to M$ Winblows
[04:24] <hoonteke> you can still get graphical access, without the security risk of installing the X *server*.
[04:24] <sebsebseb> PushaT: sounds good
[04:24] <hoonteke> ssh -Y server_name from another machine, and that will let you run different graphical programs
[04:24] <Treyh> hoonteke, would you just gnome or something lighter?
[04:24] <w3rd_> hey guys im trying to copy files on to my usb drive and it says that im not allowed.. it looks like i dont have write access, so i tried for terminal as root and i still have issues.. how do i change the permissions of the drive/
[04:25] <hoonteke> Treyh: on a server environment, I would not use a desktop, period
[04:25] <Treyh> hoonteke, even with vbox?
[04:25] <sebsebseb> w3rd_: gksudo nautilus   right click drive  go to properites change permissions.   that should work
[04:25] <sebsebseb> w3rd_: drive in computer. and it might also be in /mnt or /media
[04:25] <hoonteke> Treyh: what people don't realize is that you can still get GUI programs without the X server
[04:25] <sebsebseb> w3rd_: also this
[04:25] <sebsebseb> !permissions |  w3rd_
[04:25] <hoonteke> X works kind of weirdly when you're used to Windows, e.g
[04:25] <w3rd_> is there a way to do that from command line
[04:25] <Treyh> hoonteke, how?
[04:25] <sebsebseb> w3rd_: and be careful when running nautilus as root
[04:25] <w3rd_> right..
[04:26] <sebsebseb> w3rd_: so you don't delete  some system file or something
[04:26] <hoonteke> well, X Server is what actually touches your hardware
[04:26] <w3rd_> im running nautilis as a user
[04:26] <hoonteke> so to use the monitor, you have X server running
[04:26] <hoonteke> but the X Clients are the programs
[04:26] <tad1073> chown
[04:26] <hoonteke> roughly, firefox, gedit, gnome-terminal
[04:26] <Treyh> hoonteke, you know of a link that might explain this?
[04:26] <hoonteke> Treyh: heh, that's probably a good suggestion for me.  I'll have to google
[04:27] <hoonteke> but, the gist of it is that you can ssh -Y from another box, say your laptop, and then execute the program, and it will automagically work
[04:27] <Joeseph> Just making sure I understand this correctly.... Groups are for allowing similair permissions to a 'group' of people, and any one user can be a part of multiple groups, yes?
[04:27] <sebsebseb> w3rd_: ok well try what I said :)
[04:27] <BeatlesFan> Joeseph, yup
[04:27] <sebsebseb> Joeseph: yes
[04:28] <Treyh> hoonteke, interesting will try that now, will it work if X is already running?
[04:28] <tad1073> same as with windows
[04:28] <hoonteke> yeah.  the ssh -Y sets up the environment as necessary
[04:28] <orchid> moci
[04:28] <hoonteke> mainly, just export the DISPLAY variable to sub programs
[04:28] <tad1073> just a little easier to find
[04:28] <hoonteke> but if you want to prove it to yourself, turn off the X server on the server machine
[04:28] <hoonteke> I believe gdm is the service?
[04:29] <hoonteke> Treyh: # /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[04:29] <hoonteke> should do the trick
[04:29] <hoonteke> then, from your client machine, ssh -Y ... and run your GUI program.
[04:30] <hoonteke> sebsebseb: thanks for the open with pointer.
[04:30] <sebsebseb> hoonteke: ok np
[04:30] <w3rd_> sebsebseb: i have tried to change the permission via nautilis and it doesnt give me the capability, says that it can determine the filesystem type... i have tried to recursivly change the permissions of the USB drive via the mount point, and i have tried to chown, chgrp and i get errors that say i cant
[04:30] <hoonteke> Treyh: the thinking is that because the XServer is run as the root user, and it's historically *not* been bug free, it's better not to run the X Server in mission critical settings
[04:31] <hoonteke> not to mention other issues, like taking up unneeded resources on a server environment
[04:31] <BeatlesFan> w3rd, you using sudo chmod?
[04:31] <w3rd_> naw, i su to root
[04:31] <sebsebseb> w3rd_: can't determine filesystem type hum
[04:31] <sebsebseb> w3rd_: what is the file system?
[04:31] <w3rd_> that is what it says when i right click the icon..
[04:31] <w3rd_> it maybe a journaled fs due to the fact i use / mount via a mac
[04:32] <w3rd_> and now trying to load via ubuntu..
[04:32] <w3rd_> it sees the files
[04:32] <TeenySHAD0W> is there somewhere i can post suggestions about ubuntu's install system?  there are some very important things that aren't being done right...
[04:32] <w3rd_> i just cant write as user or group
[04:32] <w3rd_> only root
[04:32] <w3rd_> but even su as root i cant cp or mv
[04:32] <w3rd_> dunno?
[04:32] <sebsebseb> !brainstorm | TeenySHAD0W
[04:32] <hoonteke> TeenySHAD0W: a blog?  wordpress? ubuntuforums?  I dunno ...
[04:32] <hoonteke> hehe, sebsebseb is on it!
[04:33] <TeenySHAD0W> for instance, the swap partition needs to be at least the size of ram in order for hibernation to work.
[04:33] <Joeseph> Out of curiosity, has anyone had problems with an ipod with linux (as in ipodlinux.org) and gtkpod? I'm considering managing my movies with that, since Rhythmbox does not support movies.
[04:33] <Treyh> hoonteke, I did ssh -Y localhost and logged in, typed sudo firefox and it said no display specified
[04:33] <dtchen> TeenySHAD0W: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/Ubuntu-installer
[04:33] <BeatlesFan> I personally know the CEO of Canonical.. I'll let him know TeenyShadow
[04:33] <sebsebseb> Joeseph: Banshee can sync an Ipod
[04:33] <mobi-sheep> Treyh: ssh -X ?
[04:33] <hoonteke> Treyh: I assume you're ssh -Y'
[04:33] <hoonteke> from another machine
[04:33] <sebsebseb> BeatlesFan: sure  and I am Donald Duck
[04:33] <hoonteke> with X running on /the other/ machine
[04:33] <Joeseph> sebsebseb: I had trouble with it reading my linux partition instead of my ipod partition....
[04:34] <hoonteke> mobi-sheep: no, I believe -Y.
[04:34] <Treyh> mobi-sheep, same t hing
[04:34] <tad1073> TeenySHADOW: if you set the partitions yourself you can allocate as much or as little space you want
[04:34] <BeatlesFan> sebsebseb: I thought you were Mickey Mouse.. not Donald!
[04:34] <Treyh> hoonteke, thats what I used yes
[04:34] <hoonteke> Treyh: to clarify, you're running from a normal desktop on the machine from which you're sshing, yes?
[04:34] <sebsebseb> BeatlesFan: yeah and I thought you were Goofey
[04:34] <hoonteke> but /on the server/ X is off
[04:34] <TeenySHAD0W> right...  but if linux is going to do the desktop in a big way, this stuff needs to be automated.
[04:35] <Treyh> hoonteke, I sshed using putty, onto the ubuntu desktop
[04:35] <sebsebseb> TeenySHAD0W: Guided install does SWAP for people
[04:35] <hoonteke> Treyh: ah, then we have other issues
[04:35] <hoonteke> putty is on windows
[04:35] <Treyh> hoonteke, just a sec i can test from the actual box
[04:35] <TeenySHAD0W> yes, but at least in my case, it wasn't big enough for hibernation.
[04:35] <hoonteke> and you'll need to isntall Cygwin/ X for that to work
[04:35] <TeenySHAD0W> so it wasn't determined properly.
[04:35] <tms__>  I have a problem with the evolution went a try to do the spelling, the evolution is close in that moment
[04:35] <Jeruvy> TeenySHAD0W: I would never let ANY OS partition my drives for me, desktop, server, UNR, etc.
[04:35] <sebsebseb> TeenySHAD0W: right, but did you have enough unallocated space on the hard disk for it to be big enough?
[04:35] <sagaci> what's the channel for discussing openoffice bugs
[04:36] <sebsebseb> Jeruvy: indeed more control if we do it ourself, but new users will use guided
[04:36] <hoonteke> Treyh: what's happening behind the scenes is that X is speaking a certain protocol.  That protocol is not understood by Windows graphics subsystem, so you'll need to install an X Server on the windows machine
[04:36] <hoonteke> the only one of which I know is Cygwin's
[04:36] <Jeruvy> sebsebseb: oh without even saying :)
[04:36] <dtchen> TeenySHAD0W: also, #ubuntu-installer on this irc net
[04:36] <TeenySHAD0W> Jeruvy, you should always be able to manually partition, but the automatic needs to be refined for people who have no klew.
[04:36] <sebsebseb> sagaci: don't know
[04:37] <elite_prodigy> Can anyone tell my why the fonts on my new Ubuntu install is all garbled?
[04:37] <TeenySHAD0W> blah.
[04:37] <TeenySHAD0W> later.
[04:37] <Jeruvy> TeenySHAD0W: the problem of course comes with dual-booting, otherwise sure it's ok to do.
[04:37] <TeenySHAD0W> thanks folks.
[04:37] <mobi-sheep> elite_prodigy: New Ubuntu fonts!
[04:37] <texincali> need help with my audio....i had it fixed a while back but i just logged in and now its not even seeing my sound card...and i have no idea what to do....(please dont expect me to know how to use linux as i am still very new)
[04:37] <rob_p> !fonts
[04:37] <w3rd_> it was issues with ownership... looks like i got it to work.. chown saves the day.. got lost for a moment.. ty for any help
[04:37] <elite_prodigy> mobi-sheep: How do I fix it/get the fonts?
[04:38] <Treyh> hoonteke, testing it now from another ubuntu desktop
[04:38] <elite_prodigy> So all I have to do is intall the fonts and I'll be set?
[04:38] <texincali> could somone help me with my audio please?
[04:39] <tad1073> which server ubuntu 9.04 or windows 2003?
[04:39] <rob_p> elite_prodigy, Probably.
[04:39] <tad1073> file and media sharing for now
[04:39] <hoonteke> one reason not to use a GUI system (like X) on the server: Back in 2003 era, there was a friendly horror story about the server running so slowly, but everytime someone checked it out, nothing was awry and it was right zippy.  Finally someone had the bright idea to remote in without disturbing the environment, and realized it was the OpenGL screensaver taking up all the power on the (Windows) server.
[04:39] <uskrewed> I've gotten Firefox 3.5b4.tar.bz2 how exactly do I install it over FF3? Or should I make it a separate install
[04:39] <Jeruvy> hoonteke: good advice
[04:40] <lstarnes> tad1073: I would definitely use something based on linux, but maybe debian instead of ubuntu for servers
[04:40] <Joeseph> hoonteke: And a good story.
[04:40] <hoonteke> uskrewed: just untar it into a directory, and I believe you can run it as ./firefox
[04:40] <hoonteke> that's been my experience with firefox tarbalss
[04:40] <hoonteke> tarballs.  But it's been awhile.
[04:40] <texincali> could somone please help me withmy audio issues on ubuntu latest version?
[04:40] <uskrewed> okay, I wasn't sure if that'd work. Anyone know the repercurrsions of unpacking it into my FF directory?
[04:40] <hoonteke> uskrewed: erm, don't
[04:40] <uskrewed> okieday. Thanks a ton
[04:41] <hoonteke> unpack it into a local directory or somewhere in your home directory
[04:41] <tad1073> it will over right everything
[04:41] <hoonteke> otherwise, you'll start messing with apt's sense of things
[04:41] <texincali> maby not...
[04:41] <texincali> :-\
[04:41] <hoonteke> texincali: it's an issue that's not the most understood
[04:41] <hoonteke> texincali: some things you can do
[04:41] <hoonteke> open a terminal, type 'lspci'
[04:41] <Scunizi> Is there any way to sort bookmarks A-Z with folders on top? As in "Sort by Type and A-Z"
[04:41] <Scunizi> in Firefox?
[04:41] <hoonteke> and see if you can see your hardware in the output
[04:41] <uskrewed> lastly, would you suggest I use wine for gameplay? namely left 4 dead. Or should I just boot over to windows?
[04:41] <sebsebseb> Scunizi: maybe
[04:41] <hoonteke> uskrewed: best I can offer you is try it and see
[04:42] <sebsebseb> Scunizi: Bookmarks > organize bookmarks
[04:42] <Jeruvy> uskrewed: I dont thing l4d works in wine atm, but I could be wrong.
[04:42] <sebsebseb> Scunizi: then have a look at what you can do
[04:42] <Scunizi> sebsebseb: problem is I don't see it as an option in the Organize bookmarks option
[04:42] <uskrewed> Well my concern was steam handling it. Because steam and l4d are separate applications and steam launches l4d
[04:42] <texincali> yes i can
[04:42] <sebsebseb> Scunizi: oh you already been there, well in that case  maybe with some add on of some kind
[04:42] <Gustavo> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg goes directly into some "frame buffer" option, and doesn't automatically detect my video card. Any suggestions?
[04:42] <hoo-hah> uskrewed: sorry, I'm a bit late to the conversation, but are you running steam with wine?
[04:42] <Scunizi> sebsebseb: k.. I'll look around.. should be easier then tis. :(
[04:42] <texincali> hoonteke i can see it just when i open up audio preferences i dot see it there
[04:42] <sebsebseb> Scunizi: indeed
[04:42] <uskrewed> no, it doesn't seem ti work.

[04:43] <Treyh> hoonteke, explain more please?
[04:44] <tad1073> or the link to the forum dissucion
[04:44] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: no, but probably woudn't take much to get it to work, but  I could be entirely wrong, ask in #winehq
[04:44] <hoonteke> Treyh: X server is aware that it's doing an inherently risky thing, allowing graphics to be transmitted over TCP or wherever
[04:44] <hoonteke> so it's default is to reject requests to tell it what to do
[04:44] <Treyh> hoonteke, so what command would I type
[04:44] <Joeseph> Ha.... I just realized really funny things I could do with SSH, Rythmbox, and a text-to-speech program.... hahaha.....
[04:44] <hoonteke> 'xhost +' says, "Actually, I'm aware of the security risk, but let me do it anyway." roughly
[04:45] <Treyh> hoonteke, if I just type xhost + and hit enter, gives me the same error
[04:45] <hoo-hah> sebsebseb: oh right. thanks :)
[04:45] <hoonteke> Treyh: hmm.  The next step is to look into some X error logs

[04:47] <BeatlesFan> if lspci recognizes a device, does that mean it will work properly in Ubuntu?
[04:47] <hoonteke> let me know what you come up with, eh
[04:47] <hoonteke> ?
[04:47] <gp5st> sorry, i've been reading reviews and getting lost in all of it; esp since they are aimed at gamers and I just need it to play hidef video: which of these would suite that task? http://pastebin.com/d13b3000a
[04:47] <dtchen> BeatlesFan: not necessarily
[04:47] <vince> I suspect IPv6 is the issue, to make a long story short i've been having severe lag, intermittant connection issues ever since I upgraded.  I disabled IPV6 in firefox and it has helped some but not alot.  Ubuntu 8.10 does not exhibit this issue and neither does my wifes windows machine.
[04:47] <gp5st> thanks, i'm really bad at this part of things
[04:47] <hoonteke> texincali: are you having any success with the bot instructions?
[04:47] <texincali> no
[04:47] <texincali> the tutorials are confusing as hell

[04:48] <texincali> lol
[04:49] <BeatlesFan> and when I switch back to onboard video it will boot and I can see the new card in lspci
[04:49] <hoonteke> texincali:  alright, you say lspci *does* see it.  That means that kernel at least knows it's there.  That's probably the most important piece of the puzzle.
[04:49] <hoo-hah> sebsebseb: nah. i missed it ;)
[04:49] <kbrosnan> vince: an ipv6 issue would be a network wide issue. assuming you and your wife use the same dns servers, if you are unsure then you are using the same ones
[04:49] <texincali> can i send you a private message?
[04:49] <hoonteke> texincali: the rest is just making sure Ubuntu is set up properly
[04:49] <hoo-hah> sebsebseb: that's the thing, this machine is severely short on ram (1GB)
[04:49] <hoo-hah> it's pretty muched maxed out atm
[04:49] <hoonteke> texincali: erm, only if necessary.  having these conversations in this room lets others learn
[04:49] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: I only have 1GB
[04:49] <texincali> ah ok
[04:49] <RHorse> vince: have you checked if any processes are hogging the cpu when this occurs?
[04:49] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: that's plenty for virtual machines, well maybe Vista woudn't  work to well
[04:49] <hoo-hah> sebsebseb: are you running *buntu?
[04:50] <texincali> well im thinking that its seeing it....
[04:50] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: ,but XP will be good
[04:50] <texincali> 00:0a.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB0400 Audigy2 Value
[04:50] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: yeah Ubuntu
[04:50] <hoo-hah> sebsebseb: yeah, if i can get it to work in win2k, I'll use that
[04:50] <roxie> i have a dell mini 9 with ubuntu netbook remix. i have 2 gig ram installed... how do i check to see my ram is actually recognized by my netbook?
[04:50] <hoonteke> texincali: give me a pastebin of the lspci output
[04:50] <hoo-hah> sebsebseb: jaunty, by any chance?
[04:50] <texincali> yes im using audigy 4
[04:50] <hoonteke> you know how to pastebin?
[04:50] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: yep
[04:50] <texincali> yet*
[04:50] <texincali> i used it the other day but i cant remember how
[04:50] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: ,but last time I did XP in a VM I was running 8.04 or something
[04:51] <hoonteke> texincali: mouse-copy or otherwise copy the text of lspci, then paste it to one of the pastebin services: dpaste.com, rafb.net, pastebin.com, etc.
[04:51] <hoonteke> then show us the url
[04:51] <vince> RHorse : Not directly no.  I have checked the processor for other things.  There's nothing really unusual and the CPU itself dosen't lag, the program is snappy its just anything connection related starts to time out
[04:51] <hoonteke> that way we can look at it
[04:51] <hoo-hah> sebsebseb: sound and that working fine?
[04:51] <hoo-hah> sebsebseb: really that's all I'm concerned about, and maybe network splutters
[04:51] <Jeruvy> roxie: run memtest from the boot menu or disc.  If the BIOS sees it you should be confident that ubuntu see's it.
[04:51] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: XP  needs weird drivers on this computer,  but  in a vm inside Ubuntu no problem, since it can use the host for sound
[04:51] <Adam> For general java usage, which package do i install. it's been some time since i've reinstalled java.
[04:52] <owen1> i got a logitech usb mic. the sound is very week even though it's the max on mixer of the audio card.
[04:52] <tad1073> I need help with my optical audio out
[04:52] <owen1> any ideas?
[04:52] <fccf> !java
[04:52] <texincali> http://pastebin.com/m46e499d3
[04:52] <gp5st> anyone have any ideas on those chipsets?
[04:52] <vince> RHorse: if it matters it also seems to happen more when looking at things like UTube or streaming audio.  IRC for instance dosen't seem to be lagging any.  But then agian sometimes google times out too so............
[04:52] <roxie> Jeruvy: how do i run memtest? i am new to ubuntu
[04:52] <owen1> do i need usbaudio to use usb microphone?
[04:53] <hoonteke> texincali: yep, so line 8.  The kernel sees an audio controller "...Audigy2..."
[04:53] <fccf> Adam: you may also want sun-java6-plugin
[04:53] <hoonteke> texincali: so you're in business.  The next step is making ubuntu play nice
[04:53] <texincali> yet ive realy got an audigy 4
[04:53] <XCP2> any recommendations on non-ATI cards that can compare with an ATI HD 4850 and are *well* supported under Linux/Ubuntu?
[04:53] <Jeruvy> roxie: from the boot menu, stick your disc in the optical drive and there should be an option for you to run it.
[04:53] <hoonteke> texincali: that would be an issue of driver compatability
[04:53] <hoonteke> the kernel detects *something*
[04:53] <texincali> ok
[04:53] <hoonteke> which hopefully means you can at least use your card
[04:53] <owen1> any recommendations for good microphone using skype?
[04:53] <texincali> it worked about 4 days ago
[04:53] <texincali> last time i loaded linux
[04:53] <texincali> :-P
[04:53] <hoonteke> owen1: I'm a big fan of the logitech headset
[04:53] <hoonteke> texincali: heh
[04:54] <roxie> my netbook has no place for a disc... anything i could do?
[04:54] <owen1> hoonteke: i want only a mic.
[04:54] <fccf> !netbook
[04:54] <hoonteke> owen1: then youz on your own.  :-)
[04:54] <texincali> i use the devil's OS to play games....wine just doesnt cut it....
[04:54] <hoonteke> texincali: I hear you there
[04:54] <texincali> anyways
[04:54] <texincali> so now what do i do from here?
[04:54] <RHorse> vince if you have wireless you could make a comparison.
[04:55] <hoonteke> texincali: I'm not sure.  at this point I'm shooting in the dark.
[04:55] <texincali> :-\
[04:55] <hoonteke> texincali: from the commandline (here on in CLI)
[04:55] <texincali> cli?
[04:55] <hoonteke> type '$ ps waux | grep pulseaudio'
[04:55] <hoo-hah> sebsebseb: why did you choose virtualbox?
[04:55] <hoonteke> CLI = Command Line Interface
[04:55] <hoonteke> as opposed to GUI = Graphical User Interface
[04:55] <fccf> roxie: on the ubuntu netbook remix download page there is a way to setup the installer on a usb thumbdrive
[04:55] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: ,because it's the best free one
[04:55] <vince> RHorse : I am using wireless, Not much difference between that and CAT5 into the side of the case.
[04:55] <texincali> bash: $ ps waux | grep pulseaudio: command not found
[04:55] <ubunlife> ubuntu toolbar icons keeps moving around.. different locations everytime i login... infected with something?
[04:56] <hoonteke> texincali: sorry, the '$' symbol is just saying 'at the commandline'
[04:56] <texincali> oh
[04:56] <roxie> k ill be back
[04:56] <hoonteke> often, when viewing instructions, you'll see either '$' or '#'
[04:56] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: http://www.virtualbox.org and binary for linux hosts for USB support closed source one.   or  open source edition from Ubuntu repo and no USB
[04:56] <Treyh> hoonteke, seeing this a lot error in locking authority file
[04:56] <hoonteke> meaning as a normal user ($) or a the root user (#)
[04:56] <Treyh> hoonteke, .Xauthority

[04:56] <Jeruvy> roxie: ah that would be an issue.  just run 'sudo lshw' from a terminal, and look for memory
[04:57] <hoonteke> texincali: for future reference, for pastes 3lines or over, folks generally appreciate a pastebin
[04:57] <hoonteke> 2 or less you're good
[04:57] <hoonteke> Treyh: urm, sorry, not sure I follow
[04:57] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: I have used VMware player  and VMware server, and even  VirtualPC in Windows,  but Virtualbox :)   also it can  use VMDK  VMware disk files, without needing a vmx file :)
[04:57] <hoonteke> texincali: okay, so the sound server is running
[04:57] <fccf> !paste | texincali
[04:57] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: great app usually recommended in here as well
[04:57] <texincali> yes i know
[04:58] <texincali> ive got pastebin loaded sorry
[04:58] <texincali> :-\
[04:58] <hoonteke> texincali: no worries.  our arcane ways take some getting used to
[04:58] <hoonteke> they are all with purpose, but they take some getting used to.
[04:58] <owner> ok so hardy + no sound - verified working in windows
[04:58] <Treyh> hoonteke, when I ssh into the ubuntu desktop, gives me an error of: /usr/bin/X11/xauth: error in locking authority file /home/treyh/.Xauthority
[04:58] <owner> got an audigy 2 soundcard
[04:58] <RHorse> vince so both ethernet and wireless are slow?
[04:58] <hoo-hah> sebsebseb: okay, i'll ssh in and try to install both
[04:59] <hoonteke> Treyh: ah, okay.  That's a start.  stupid question, you've the checked the path heirarchy and associated permissions?
[04:59] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: well it's graphical
[04:59] <hoo-hah> sebsebseb: I wouldn't need a reboot of some sort to modprobe virtualbox modules, would I?
[04:59] <hoonteke> Treyh: some bit hasn't gotten flipped, has it?
[04:59] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: VNC on SSH?
[04:59] <hoo-hah> sebsebseb: yeah, just installing it for the time being
[04:59] <hoonteke> texincali: so, do you have a test audio file?
[04:59] <hoo-hah> sebsebseb: yep
[04:59] <texincali> yeah
[04:59] <vince> RHorse: Correct
[04:59] <Treyh> hoonteke, i know it's wrong but just for testing, set that file to chmod 777 and then also chowned it to treyh:treyh
[04:59] <texincali> no sound when i try to play it
[04:59] <texincali> and when i go to options
[04:59] <halberd> okay so I have a Macbook, with HFS+ and ext3 filesystems, and I want my home directory to be maintained the same across both
[05:00] <hoonteke> Treyh: erm, I don't know how finicky the X server is.  It may in fact not like that you have a file 777 and be refusing to do anything
[05:00] <hoonteke> I know that SSH does that
[05:00] <halberd> the catch is, OS X can't write to ext3, and linux can't write to HFS+
[05:00] <hoonteke> texincali: what program do you use?
[05:00] <BeatlesFan> texincali, I know this may sound condescending... see if your volume knob on your speaker is turned down or off
[05:00] <texincali> from system>preferences> my audigy isnt located in those menues
[05:00] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: don't think need to reboot after installing it,  but the kernel module hum
[05:00] <texincali> and they are turned up
[05:00] <texincali> :-P
[05:00] <roxie> i just used sudo lshw -C memory
[05:00] <Treyh> hoonteke, i moved the default back and tried also just doing a chown
[05:00] <hoonteke> Treyh: okay, and still no love?
[05:00] <roxie> it recognizes it so thanx
[05:00] <hoo-hah> sebsebseb: i think it'll be alright
[05:00] <RHorse> vince have you used a network monitor to get some hard numbers. Be interesting to see what the through put is. Could be a browser problem
[05:01] <BeatlesFan> ok, just checking because my wife has a bad habit of turning my down and then I don't think sound is working.. so it's the first thing I check
[05:01] <hoonteke> Treyh: try just removing them all together,  the .Xauthority file should just recreate itself.
[05:01] <sebsebseb> hoo-hah: ok
[05:01] <Treyh> hoonteke, none. also made sure x11 forwarding was enabled
[05:01] <hoonteke> Treyh: hmm, well that's what the -Y should do
[05:01] <hoonteke> oh, you mean on the server?
[05:01] <hoonteke> the sshd_config file?
[05:01] <texincali> yah i luckly am the only one using this computer and yah i keep my volume at a set level at all times and use the computer to change the volume...
[05:01] <Treyh> hoonteke, Yes
[05:01] <roxie> Any tips on how to make ubuntu netbook remix run fast on dell mini 9? i have 64gb runcore ssd and 2 gb kingston memory
[05:01] <hoonteke> Treyh: did you restart sshd on the server?
[05:02] <Treyh> hoonteke, I rebooted the server
[05:02] <hoonteke> Treyh: heh.  Alittle drastic, but hey, whatever works, right?
[05:02] <hoonteke> Treyh:  I mean "Hey!  This isn't windows, buddy!"
[05:02] <hoonteke> ;-)
[05:02] <ubunlife> icons on toolbar moves around to different locations randomly when i reboot.... infected?
[05:02] <Treyh> hoonteke, lol, i tried just restarting the service first, just wanted to double check
[05:02] <hoonteke> texincali: Are you talking System->Preferences->sound?
[05:03] <hoonteke> Treyh: hmm.  I don't think so because the error message is a little specific, but I'm wondering about the firewall settings?
[05:03] <Treyh> hoonteke, figured something out
[05:03] <hoonteke> Treyh: oh? do tell
[05:03] <Treyh> hoonteke, when i do the ssh -X localhost it works
[05:03] <hoonteke> oh ... huh?
[05:03] <texincali> hoonteke: yes
[05:03] <hoonteke> texincali: set all those to pulseaudio
[05:03] <Treyh> hoonteke, so went to the ubuntu desktop i've been sshing into
[05:04] <Treyh> hoonteke, and did ssh -X localhost and i can do it
[05:04] <hoonteke> Treyh: so .. client -> ssh -X localhost -> ssh -Y server ?
[05:04] <brennus> Ok, gaming question. I want to run windows & mac-only games on my Ubuntu(Jaunty)-only laptop. I've tried using WINE in the past to run microsoft programs, but failed miserably. I have yet to try VMware-style virtual machines. What's the best solution to running windows/mac games on my Ubuntu laptop? As many responses/opinions as possible wanted. Oh, and I've tried open-source alternative games. Most of the time they don't work right (
[05:04] <Treyh> hoonteke, no
[05:04] <texincali> ok when they are on pulse audio and i click test no sound comes out
[05:04] <hoonteke> texincali: but set the device under "Default Mixer Tracks" to your hardware.
[05:05] <Jeruvy> brennus: don't consider vmware for gaming...
[05:05] <brennus> jeruvy: not enough system resources?
[05:05] <texincali> only 2 things under default mixer traks
[05:05] <Treyh> hoonteke, just using one ubuntu desktop, opened a terminal and typed ssh -X localhost and was abe to locally run X over ssh
[05:05] <hoonteke> texincali: and they are?
[05:05] <Treyh> hoonteke, works for me though because I don't want to run full blown X, just need to run Vbox
[05:05] <vince> RHorse: Nope.  I did run a speed test.  My connection is 6MPS and I can normaly get around 5.1 to 5.8.  Also it jumps to that near immediatly.  Running the same test on my laptop under Jaunty it starts off in the 0 to .2 .5 MB range and may slowly go up to 1.5 or 2 megs.
[05:06] <hoonteke> Treyh: ah.  well then sweet!
[05:06] <Treyh> hoonteke, thank you for all your help, you're the man!
[05:06] <hoonteke> not the entire solution, but works well enough for now
[05:06] <hoonteke> :-)
[05:06] <hoonteke> do what I can
[05:06] <texincali> playback: null output (pulseaudio mixer) and capture: monitor of null output (pulseaudio mixer)
[05:06] <hoonteke> lord knows I've asked *my* fair share of questions.
[05:06] <Treyh> hoonteke, so you agree to run vbox and virtualization 8.04 server x64 is the way to go?
[05:06] <hoonteke> texincali: hmm, the null part is no good
[05:06] <sigger_> odd thing.  after I upgraded to 9.04, dopewars is acting a little funny.  really just funny re the math of how much the player can afford
[05:07] <Jeruvy> brennus: not much of anything for decent gaming. unless you play solitaire all day :)
[05:07] <hoonteke> Treyh: depends on your hardware
[05:07] <hoonteke> Treyh: but generally yes
[05:08] <hoonteke> although, if you're being security conscious, realize that security is a mindset, not a checkbox.
[05:08] <Treyh> hoonteke, new dell PE, 8 gigs of ram, 2x quad core cpu's
[05:08] <Treyh> hoonteke, designed for VMware
[05:08] <Jeruvy> brennus: I'd stick with either wine, or a real box meself.
[05:08] <hoonteke> oh yeah, virtualize the h*** out of that puppy.  :-)
[05:08] <hoonteke> can I have your machine?
[05:08] <hoonteke> texincali: the long and short of it is that I'm not sure
[05:08] <Treyh> hoonteke, sure have two of them lol. will 8.04 server 64 bit handle 8 gigs of ram
[05:08] <hoonteke> oh yeah
[05:09] <hoonteke> 64 bit is awesome that way.
[05:09] <fercho> hi
[05:09] <hoonteke> texincali: my suggestion now is to set up and ssh server and let your father remote in to help out
[05:09] <hoonteke> because frankly, this isn't my area of expertise.
[05:09] <uskrewed> I recently took ownership of a HD that has windows XP on it and now when I attempt to boot it tells me that there's no executable, also it uses GRUB loader for some reason... even when I took out the HD that has ubuntu on it
[05:09] <texincali> ok
[05:10] <Treyh> hoonteke, the problem I have with 9.04 server, seems like it has a memory leak or something. the vm's are set to have 1.25 gigs of memory each, after powering on, it ends up using around 1.4gigs each, but then slowly when just sitting idle the memory dwindles down to 0mb free
[05:10] <hoonteke> Treyh: hmm.  That would imply internally it's not slabs.  It may not be a leak, it may be just defragmentation, but either way, it's useless when you have 0
[05:10] <max_> Hi, ive got a HP G60 244dx and the sound is extremely quiet. I hear nothing untill 50% volume, and 100% volume is comfortable listening level. (this is the same with headphones and internal speakers) Anyone know what would cause this?
[05:11] <Treyh> hoonteke, agreed...download 8.04 now, thank you again
[05:11] <Treyh> goodnight all
[05:11] <hoonteke> Treyh: the 1.4G could also make sense in terms of VM overhead.  150 Megs does seem a bit excessive however
[05:11] <knoppix> hello
[05:12] <hoonteke> g'night, Treyh
[05:12] <hoonteke> max_: there are multiple levels of volume, unfortunately.
[05:12] <Treyh> hoonteke, I agree and honestly for about 20 minutes or so, the total memory usage for the system only floats back and forth around 5megs
[05:12] <Treyh> hoonteke, then every couple minutes 2-3 more megs get used until down to 0
[05:12] <oscarvillota> Hi, I need some help to see my partitions
[05:12] <max_> hoonteke: i have both master and pcm up.
[05:12] <uskrewed> After installing Ubuntu windows XP will not boot, even if I remove the HD that has ubuntu on it. the XP HD uses GRUB to load up and then gives me an error saying there's no executable, anyone know how to fix this?
[05:12] <knoppix> alguien que hable español???
[05:12] <hoonteke> max_: then I ain't sure.  soryr.
[05:13] <hoonteke> Treyh: that ... would seem wrong.
[05:13] <Treyh> hoonteke, I agree, and i think it's probably a 9.04 or xcfe bug
[05:13] <oscarvillota> knoppix: busca en los foros de argentina, chile o españa
[05:13] <Treyh> *xfce
[05:13] <knoppix> y vos?
[05:13] <hoonteke> oscarvillota: '$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda' where sda is whatever your harddrive device is
[05:13] <cabrey> !es | knoppix
[05:14] <knoppix> ok
[05:14] <oscarvillota> knoppix: apenas estoy aprendiendo. Entre a preguntar, pero aca no te ayudan si no puedes con el idioma
[05:14] <hoonteke> what's the standard image viewer in ubuntu?
[05:14] <cabrey> Eye of GNOME
[05:14] <uskrewed> I thought it was F-spot
[05:14] <oscarvillota> hoonteke: let me check
[05:14] <hoonteke> ah crap, I removed that.  blast
[05:14] <hoonteke> F-Spot is a manger
[05:14] <hoonteke> manager of phots
[05:14] <cabrey> uskrewed, that is the default photo manager
[05:15] <uskrewed> ah
[05:15] <hoonteke> I'm looking for a simple "double-click, let me see that photo."
[05:15] <uskrewed> anyway I'll just keep asking until someone who knows helps me
[05:15] <cabrey> hoonteke, Eye of GNOME
[05:15] <fccf> I think it is fspot -- I don't have EOG
[05:15] <uskrewed> After installing Ubuntu windows XP will not boot, even if I remove the HD that has ubuntu on it. the XP HD uses GRUB to load up and then gives me an error saying there's no executable
[05:15] <hoonteke> cabrey: great, thanks, installing now
[05:15] <hoonteke> apt-get, you're awesome
[05:15] <cabrey> hoonteke, it should already be installed
[05:15] <uskrewed> [23:14:49] <hoonteke> ah crap, I removed that.  blast
[05:15] <hoonteke> cabrey: it was, but I removed it thinking it was largely replaced by evince.
[05:15] <texincali> maby ill try reinstalling unbuntu
[05:16] <fccf> uskrewed - you will need the windows recovery environment to reinstall the bootloader ... then put grub back on the other drive
[05:16] <hoonteke> texincali: you might first try the sound via the livecd
[05:16] <uskrewed> so pop in the XP CD and let it work it's magic?
[05:16] <fccf> uskrewed: could be that simple... I doubt it
[05:17] <oscarvillota> hoonteke:  Im just starting so this command doesnt give me too much info
[05:17] <texincali> live cd sound allways works for me...
[05:17] <texincali> its when i put it on my hdd that it stops working for some reason
[05:17] <hoonteke> oscarvillota: do you know the name of the device as the kernel sees it?
[05:17] <oscarvillota> hoonteke:  I see this: /dev/sda1
[05:17] <dyess002> My terminal won't work anymore, I have no prompt no login name
[05:17] <oscarvillota> hoonteke: /dev/sda2
[05:18] <hoonteke> oscarvillota: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda (no number) should list all the partitions on the sda device
[05:18] <fccf> uskrewed: you will use the windows recovery environment ?F8? or other option gets you to WRE
[05:18] <oscarvillota> hoonteke: /dev/sda3
[05:18] <hoonteke> don't forget to use sudo
[05:18] <texincali> ill be back
[05:18] <oscarvillota> I did
[05:18] <hoonteke> hmm, well, try fdisk -l /dev/sda1 then, but that's weird
[05:18] <oscarvillota> hoonteke: I have to tell you, I installed wubi
[05:18] <hoonteke> oscarvillota: oh... that may make things different
[05:18] <hoonteke> I haven't messed with wubi installs mucj
[05:18] <Roasted> How can I tell exactly what hard drive/partition that Grub is installed on?
[05:19] <dyess002> Is this a good room for terminal help?
[05:19] <zetheroo> I am trying to follow this How-To : http://forum.avira.com/wbb/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=74872 .... but am stuck on this command : ./configure --disable-local-dpath --disable-chroot-support --enable-syscalls --mapfile=/boot/System.map-2.6.24-24 --kernelsrcdir=/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-24/make xconfig  ...... I get this error:    error: no kernel build source files found    (perhaps kernel source in /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-
[05:19] <hoonteke> dyess002: ask the question and find out.
[05:19] <Jeruvy> Roasted: is this a dual boot?
[05:19] <hoonteke> it often depends on the question
[05:19] <Roasted> jeruvy - yes.
[05:19] <hoonteke> oscarvillota: but the gist of how they work is they create a big file on the windows disk, and use that as the hard drive for ubuntu.
[05:19] <oscarvillota> hoonteke: OK. do you know about a channel for help on wubi?
[05:19] <Jeruvy> Roasted: it uses the same MBR as windows
[05:19] <rameshwo> ....  is /boot , /etc /dev  different partitions. ? if not what are the partitions in linux as (c: , d: , e: ) ?
[05:19] <hoonteke> !wuib
[05:19] <hoonteke> !wubi
[05:19] <dyess002> My terminal won't work anymore, I have no prompt no login name
[05:20] <Roasted> jeruvy - uh, what? I know theres a command to tell me which partition Grub is installed on... thats what I need to know...
[05:20] <zetheroo> what should I be doing to fix this?
[05:20] <hoonteke> oscarvillota: I don't, but you can start with that wubi-installer.org site
[05:20] <ctmjr> !oss>me
[05:20] <Roasted> jeruvy - I have 4 drives in my system. 3 backups, 1 main. Every 3-4 times I boot up, I get an error with grub. I think maybe Grub may exist on a backup drive on accident.
[05:20] <Jeruvy> Roasted: which version of grub?
[05:20] <hoonteke> ctmjr try the pipe (|)
[05:20] <Roasted> jeruvy - I have no idea... whatever comes with ubuntu 904
[05:20] <hoonteke> !oss | ctmjr
[05:20] <oscarvillota> hoonteke: ok thank you anyway
[05:20] <ctmjr> !oss|me
[05:21] <hoonteke> !fsf | ctmjr
[05:21] <Jeruvy> Roasted: hmm sorry I don't know which ver is with jaunty...maybe someone else can step in.
[05:21] <rameshwo>  is /boot , /etc /dev  different partitions. ? if not what are the partitions in linux as (c: , d: , e: ) ?
[05:21] <ctmjr> hoonteke, thank you
[05:21] <Roasted> How can I tell exactly what hard drive/partition that Grub is installed on?
[05:21] <Gustavo> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg goes directly into some "frame buffer" option, and doesn't automatically detect my video card. Any suggestions?
[05:21] <hoonteke> dyess002: that's a little vague.  Can you try Ctrl+Alt+F1 ?  does that give you a non-graphical terminal?
[05:23] <hoonteke> dyess002: erm, I hope I didn't lose you.  You can hit Ctrl+Alt+F7 or F8 or F9 to get back to the GUI screen.

[05:23] <rameshwo> how can i start ubuntu without the GUI .. ...just CLI..
[05:24] <Roasted> jeruvy - found it. IT's df /boot. It's on my root partition. I dont see why else Id be getting any errors....
[05:25] <Jeruvy> rameshwo: if you installed server, it does not include X by default
[05:25] <rameshwo> not server  .  ..  ..
[05:25] <rameshwo> Jeruvy  : not server..
[05:25] <rameshwo> i wanted all CLI so that i would learn CLI by compulsion..
[05:25] <hoonteke> rameshwo: start?  do you mean as in recovery mode ?
[05:26] <zoneheal> sasa
[05:26] <zoneheal> as
[05:26] <hoonteke> well, you can turn it off after you've booted with '$ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop'
[05:26] <Jeruvy> hoonteke: I think he means like a boot option...
[05:26] <rameshwo> hoonteke : no i just want ubuntu to start without gnome. ?
[05:26] <hoonteke> rameshwo: well, the gdm stop will get there for you
[05:27] <hoonteke> rameshwo: otherwise you have to add something to the grub/kernel boot line
[05:27] <zoneheal> saasa
[05:27] <suppi> i have to uninstall a program from the menu bar..

[05:27] <suppi> help pls ...new to ubuntu
[05:27] <hoonteke> suppi: Applications->Add/Remove Programs
[05:27] <hoonteke> should do the trick
[05:27] <rameshwo> and how to get back to GUI ? I WANT CLI  login prompt..
[05:27] <hoonteke> suppi: almost *all* programs are installable and removable through that menu item
[05:28] <suppi> ya i tried it...but my application name is not there ...
[05:28] <hoonteke> rameshwo: after you turn off the GUI, it won't be there.  but, Ctrl+Alt+F1 takes you to a 'tty' or CLI terminal.
[05:28] <nestor9> anyone running ubuntu on a macbook pro?
[05:28] <wart> Hi folks.  So here's a question: I use elinks quite often, but find myself launching firefox in order to watch tv shows on flash sites.  But since firefox flash player sometimes crashes or at least has been buggy, I find myself hitting pause, and then running mplayer -fs /tmp/Flash* to watch the flash show.
[05:28] <rameshwo> hoonteke : ok..
[05:28] <hoonteke> Ctrl+Alt+F7 or F8 or F9 takes you back to what *would* be the GUI
[05:28] <wart> The question is this: Isn't there a way to bypass firefox altogether here?
[05:28] <Jeruvy> suppi System -> Preferences -> Main Menu
[05:29] <Gnea> rameshwo: do you want it so that the GUI does not appear at every boot, but only at your command?
[05:29] <thatguy> hrm well my idea for laptop+monitor is still failing.  My monitor refuses to turn on
[05:29] <jhambo> how can I play a .wav sound from the command line?
[05:29] <dallas> Isn't there a command in Ubuntu that will add entries into your rc*.d directories?
[05:29] <sagaci> is there a command to remove all subfolders that are empty
[05:29] <hoonteke> jhambo: aplay file.wav
[05:29] <rameshwo> gnea :  EXACTLY.....
[05:29] <rameshwo> Gnea  : HOW to do it ?
[05:29] <Gnea> rameshwo: sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove
[05:30] <Gnea> rameshwo: it keeps it installed, but it now it won't start until you issue this:  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[05:30] <hoonteke> Gnea: ah, sweet
[05:30] <hoonteke> good call
[05:30] <Gnea> rameshwo, hoonteke: if you want to put it back into place, just:  sudo update-rc.d -f gdm defaults
[05:30] <ctmjr> jhambo, aplay /path/to/.wav
[05:30] <thatguy> has anyone experienced that problem before while using ubuntu?
[05:30] <dallas> @Gnea Thanks!
[05:30] <Gnea> cheers :)
[05:30] <rameshwo> thanks..guys...
[05:31] <rameshwo> same commands for xubuntu also ? or different ?
[05:31] <Gnea> I believe they are the same, yes
[05:31] <owen1> any recommendations for good mic? i have issues with logitech desktop mic.
[05:31] <thatguy> also even if i do system->prefs->display to setup dual screen, do i still have to edit xorg.conf?
[05:31] <Gnea> owen1: mfj
[05:32] <owen1> Gnea: i'll google for it. thanks
[05:32] <hoonteke> sagaci: yes, from the commandline
[05:32] <hoonteke> it's a little arcane, and doesn't do it recursively, but it does work
[05:32] <hoonteke> sagaci: '$ find . -type d -empty'
[05:32] <hoonteke> starts from the current directory, searching for directories (-type d) that are empty (-empty)
[05:32] <rameshwo> Gnea : ok..  how did you learn all these ?  i've been using ubuntu for about 2 months but seems i know very little thing...
[05:33] <nestor9> anyone using ubuntu on a macbook pro?
[05:33] <sagaci> thanks
[05:33] <hoonteke> sagaci: to delete them, '$ find . -type d -empty -delete'
[05:33] <zetheroo> ﻿whats the command for listing available modules? .. and whats the command for listing active modules?
[05:34] <sigger_> lsmod? I think?
[05:34] <sagaci> hoonteke: thanks a lot
[05:34] <hoonteke> zetheroo: kernel wise? or package wise?
[05:34] <zetheroo> ﻿hoonteke: kernel
[05:34] <hoonteke> zetheroo: lsmod shows you what's loaded in the kernel
[05:35] <hoonteke> what's available ... I don't know
[05:35] <hoonteke> ask in #linux for that info
[05:35] <Gnea> rameshwo: I've been using linux for a little over a decade :) it uses the same method that debian uses
[05:35] <hoonteke> although most things I believe will get loaded automatically
[05:35] <zetheroo> ﻿hoonteke: ok thanks
[05:36] <suppi> how to uninstall a program which is not shown in the add/remove programs
[05:36] <suppi> ???
[05:37] <sagaci> hoonteke: how can i find how many subdirectories are in a certain directory
[05:37] <hoonteke> suppi: Try the more powerful, but potentially more dangerous program synaptic: System->Adminisration->Synaptic Package Manager
[05:37] <DigitalFlux> suppi: sudo aptitude remove <package name>
[05:37] <zetheroo> error: capabilities are built-in to the kernel:

[05:46] <hoonteke> ColdSun: ooh, were that it were so simple.  It's often app specific.  look in your home directory under the hidden directories.  so ~/.gnome is a good place to start.  try '$ ls -A ~/' and see what that brings up for you.
[05:47] <whatvn> ColdSun, every app usually store its setting in user's home directory, in a dot (.) file
[05:47] <hoonteke> alright, I'm really leaving now.

[05:48] <rameshwo> ( newbie ) are there different softwares for different distros > or one will work in others also ??

[05:49] <rameshwo>  are there different softwares for different distros > or one will work in others also ??
[05:49] <zetheroo> ﻿cabrey: yeah I saw that ... made me go green - ha
[05:49] <lightbricko> I've downloaded a Linux-specific firmware update file with a .BIN extension for my HP all-in-one printer from hp.com. How do I run it? Giving it permissions to run and then run it results in the error "bash: ./fw.bin: cannot execute binary file".
[05:49] <cabrey> zetheroo, wiat are you running jaunty?
[05:49] <Jeruvy> rameshwo: most will move around, but beware of packaging, that can play havoc
[05:50] <whatvn> rameshwo, deb packages for ubuntu, rpm for rhel based, and different for others. you can build your own from source code, usually come with .tar.gz extension
[05:50] <zetheroo> ﻿cabrey: HH
[05:50] <L3dPlatedLinux> I am trying to see if I can use winff in ubuntu to make one dvd vid file from 9 .flv files? if there is a better way yo make em  in to one file let me know then I can covert them after
[05:50] <rameshwo> if i have source code then i can do it for all distros ??
[05:51] <rameshwo> or  deb packages only for debian-based ??
[05:51] <whatvn> rameshwo, I think yes
[05:51] <whatvn> rameshwo, yes
[05:51] <cabrey> zetheroo, oh :( im of no further use, i only have jaunty and everything ive come across references that how to
[05:51] <Jeruvy> rameshwo: then you need to 'configure && make && sudo make install' typically
[05:51] <cyros> rameswho yes but the locations and configs might differ from each distro
[05:51] <dyess002>  My terminal won't work anymore, I have no prompt no login name
[05:51] <cabrey> rameshwo, use checkinstall
[05:51] <cabrey> !checkinstall
[05:52] <L3dPlatedLinux>  when I used cat name.flv name1.flv > file.flv worked fine but after the first two files (there is 8) the ones after the first two didnt add?
[05:52] <bullgard4> Synaptic: "LibMagick supports loading and saving a very large set of image formats. It allows a lot of image manipulation as well." Where comes the 'k' from in LibMagick?

[05:53] <cabrey> zetheroo, noooo idea :/
[05:53] <zetheroo> ﻿cabrey: cheers ..
[05:53] <rameshwo> can we do all the things with CLI ?  can we run linux to the fullest without GUI ?
[05:53] <dyess002> Someone help dyess002  please
[05:54] <phillipsm> hey guys is there a wubi irc channel?
[05:54] <cabrey> rameshwo, well a web browser for the most part needs a gui
[05:54] <cabrey> phillipsm, not that i know of
[05:54] <cabrey> phillipsm, there is no #wubi
[05:54] <whatvn> bullgard4, you can use cat *.flv > newfile.flv
[05:54] <Jeruvy> phillipsm: you can ask here
[05:54] <losher> rameshwo: on a debian system you can make a deb package but there's no guarantee that the package will work on other releases of the same distro, and it's unlikely to work on a different distro. To be absolutely certain, you'd need to recompile & build your code over again for every distro/release
[05:55] <bullgard4> whatvn: Me?
[05:55] <phillipsm> ok thanks...jw if there was something other than the wubi site to look on... Jeruvy: ok
[05:55] <whatvn> bullgard4, I call your name
[05:55] <rameshwo> cabrey  o ya..but i can start the browser  with CLI   ?
[05:55] <rameshwo> losher : THANKS..
[05:55] <cabrey> rameshwo, elinks has a limited graphics mode, but it is not a full browser
[05:55] <bullgard4> whatvn: You are mistaken.
[05:56] <dyess002> where is a good room for teminal help?
[05:56] <phillipsm> does anyone have any exp with wubi? my vista partition is giving me problems trying to shrink so I was wondering if wubi would be better than installing in a vm?
[05:56] <whatvn> bullgard4, sorry :-p
[05:56] <phillipsm> I know that in the vm i would still be able to get at the vista apps without rebooting but that's not really my concern
[05:56] <cabrey> phillipsm, wubi runs off the vista partition, so as long as their is enough space
[05:56] <losher> rameshwo: most guis actually call cli programs to do the actual work, but I can think of one or two guis that have no cli equivalent, and plenty of cli commands that have no gui equivalent
[05:57] <phillipsm> cabrey: yeah i know
[05:57] <cabrey> phillipsm, native > wubi > vm
[05:57] <cabrey> phillipsm, speed wise
[05:57] <Jeruvy> phillipsm: sounds like wubi may have the same issue.  Make sure you've got a nicely defragmented disk to work with and decent space
[05:57] <phillipsm> ok thats kindof what i figured...i have a 9gb ubuntu partion on here right now and when i tried wubi in the past it would only allow a 40gb partition on my 250...
[05:58] <Jeruvy> phillipsm: 8 or 12 GB is decent enough for testing, but serious work will need more.

[06:01] <phillipsm> yeah i would like to do that but I don't want to have to wipe everything and repartition...plus my computer has hardware recovery that doesn't work so I can't go back to factory settings without buying a new vista cd and blah blah blah microsoft sucks

[06:02] <cabrey> phillipsm, they don't even ship recovery cds anymore?
[06:02] <rameshwo> exactly .. microsoft sucks...  you can shrink or do it with partiton magic ?
[06:02] <the_warlock> cabrey: i already have the font.but i want to use it in aterm. so i need the 14 field X version of it to add to the .Xdefaults file
[06:02] <rameshwo> repartition doesn't wipe out everything...
[06:02] <c_nick> thanks

[06:03] <phillipsm> and that doesn't work either...something about a master file table?

[06:05] <blubaustin> when trying to issues "apt-get update"
[06:05] <blubaustin> issue*
[06:05] <\\`oot> when I try to run the .deb file for 2.2.4 just says "Error conflicting packages"
[06:05] <whatvn> blubaustin, apt-get clean
[06:05] <\\`oot> let me try again, one sec
[06:05] <L3dPlatedLinux> whatvn   I have tried to cat name.flv name1.flv name2.flv all the way to 8 > movie.flv
[06:05] <phillipsm> yes i used perfect disk which is supposed to do that...also gparted...no luck and as far as a vm i don't like the responsiveness of a vm vs. native
[06:05] <CraZy675> super quick question how do I grab a parameter when setting an alias?
[06:05] <whatvn> L3dPlatedLinux, cat *.flv > newfile.flv , did you try it?
[06:06] <\\`oot> "Error: Conflicts with the installed package 'virtualbox-ose' "
[06:06] <blubaustin> oh and I was trying to change it to kernel.org as the mirror
[06:06] <L3dPlatedLinux> whatvn,  gimme a sec then
[06:06] <\\`oot> That's the error message from the Package Installer
[06:06] <cabrey> \\`oot, you installed vbox 2.1.4 via apt didnt you?
[06:06] <\\`oot> yes
[06:06] <\\`oot> earlier today on someone's suggestion from this chan (I was originally going to use VMWare)
[06:06] <cabrey> \\`oot, yea you installed the open source edition, you have to uninstall that first
[06:07] <cabrey> \\`oot, yea now i remember
[06:07] <\\`oot> is there a difference between the OSE and this version?
[06:07] <cabrey> \\`oot, i always install the proprietary one
[06:07] <\\`oot> Ahh..
[06:07] <cabrey> \\`oot, different license & features
[06:07] <\\`oot> so if I uninstall I don't lose anything, do I?
[06:07] <rameshwo> phillipsm: ok gather courage and install ubuntu ? you'll mostly dont loose windows but if you loose then also it's just for a days.. then you'll be thinking that you did the right thing...but just backup your datas-- not the OS
[06:07] <cabrey> \\`oot, nope
[06:07] <blubaustin> "Temporary failure "
[06:07] <blubaustin> when trying to fetch anything.
[06:08] <blubaustin> on apt-get
[06:08] <\\`oot> cabrey: Thank you, uninstalling now
[06:08] <whatvn> blubaustin, apt-get clean && apt-get update
[06:08] <cabrey> \\`oot, yea you get extra features like usb device emulation, remote desktop, etc
[06:09] <\\`oot> I could not get decent graphics ( I have an nVidia 8600GT) working for the life of me... nor could I get it to use my USB stick
[06:09] <rameshwo> any links for visual(audio-video)  linux trainings please.....
[06:09] <cabrey> \\`oot, you couldnt get graphics to work?
[06:09] <blubaustin> same thing...
[06:09] <blubaustin> *sighs*
[06:09] <cabrey> \\`oot, in the vm or in ubuntu?
[06:09] <phillipsm> rameshwo: lol ive had ubuntu for a couple of years now I'm not concerned about losing windows and i do agree that linux is superior i just have things for school that work better compatability wise to use windows so i don't want to throw it out at this point
[06:09] <\\`oot> no, graphics worked fine, but it was using the generic "vga driver" in Virtual
[06:10] <L3dPlatedLinux> whatvn,  how would I get the term to show what file extension its using
[06:10] <rameshwo>  any links for visual(audio-video)  linux tutorials please.....
[06:10] <cabrey> \\`oot, using the vga driver in virtual box?
[06:10] <blubaustin> should I paste bin what it says...
[06:10] <blubaustin> or what?
[06:10] <phillipsm> i just want to be able to use more of the horsepower of my new laptop under ubuntu without having to redo it all first
[06:10] <losher> blubaustin: time to get more serious. Please pastebin the output so we can see *exactly* what's going on...
[06:10] <blubaustin> ok give me a few losher k?
[06:10] <blubaustin> slow imag g3 here.
[06:10] <whatvn> L3dPlatedLinux, you mean ls -la :|
[06:10] <blubaustin> imac*
[06:10] <losher> blubaustin: take your time...
[06:10] <rameshwo> phillipsm : then you must be more expert than me  i just had it for 2-3 months..
[06:11] <\\`oot> WTF... it says it's "finished" but I didn't get an icon to launch it!
[06:11] <losher> phillipsm: vmware performs rather well these days. Not much slower than native...
[06:11] <cabrey> blubaustin, ahh powerpcs great times
[06:11] <cabrey> \\`oot, just wait let gnome refresh itself
[06:12] <cabrey> \\`oot, in the mean time run VirtualBox from alt-f2
[06:12] <phillipsm> and the server version of vmware or whatever the free one is will work for regular desktop use?
[06:12] <phillipsm> losher^^
[06:12] <blubaustin> ya imac g3 600mhz
[06:12] <blubaustin> 192mb ram, 40gb hd.
[06:12] <blubaustin> Can't find 512mb stick anywhere
[06:13] <cabrey> powerpcs were good chips
[06:13] <L3dPlatedLinux> whatvn,  ok in the gui  it just shows that they are flash video as the type  so what should i use with cat *.____?
[06:13] <\\`oot> GAH! SUn Microsystems license?  (Oracle) ...dammit
[06:13] <cabrey> \\`oot, who cares
[06:13] <phillipsm> the only vm experience i have is with virtualbox
[06:13] <cabrey> \\`oot, i always accept all that crap
[06:13] <losher> phillipsm: um, not sure. I use vmware workstation 6.0.5 myself. I can't testify for any other version, sorry...
[06:13] <blubaustin> I mean if someone had a PC133 512mb stick they were willing to donate it would be a god send.
[06:13] <whatvn> L3dPlatedLinux, cd /path/to/files && cat * > newfile.flv
[06:14] <\\`oot> cabrey: HAHA!  Is there a way to actually have the vM use my "real" video card, not the generic "VGA Adapter"?
[06:14] <cabrey> phillipsm, server version is free and will run on the desktop
[06:14] <L3dPlatedLinux> ok will try that
[06:14] <cabrey> \\`oot, yes it gained support for 3d acceleration in 2.2.2 or something
[06:14] <\\`oot> cabrey: Stupid question... since it never added a menu item... how do I do that manually?
[06:14] <rameshwo> blubaustin : you meant 512 mb  flash_drive like ??
[06:14] <blubaustin> no
[06:14] <blubaustin> RAM
[06:15] <cabrey> \\`oot, it will, trust me, gnome sometimes doesnt fully refresh until you logout, then back in
[06:15] <blubaustin> SDRAM PC133 512mb
[06:15] <rameshwo> oo...sorryy..
[06:15] <phillipsm> cabrey: ok well i will try that instead of wubi then
[06:15] <\\`oot> dang it... heh... OK
[06:15] <blubaustin> I know they're cheap and everywhere...
[06:15] <cabrey> blubaustin, have a powermac g4 right here
[06:15] <blubaustin> its just I can't find them
[06:15] <blubaustin> wow
[06:15] <sparr> just allocated a new 400MB file on my old /home, which has 70/250GB free...  4878 fragments.  awesome.
[06:15] <blubaustin> MDD or no?
[06:15] <\\`oot> thanks... now my absolute last reason to boot to <shudder> Vista is gone!  I can run MS Money from a VM... woohoo!
[06:15] <cabrey> no MDD :(
[06:15] <whatvn> lol
[06:15] <hoo-hah> what's the easiest way to get gnome-network manager to start wireless connection without requiring a user to log in?
[06:16] <hoo-hah> I'd like to establish an ssh connection to the machine
[06:16] <cabrey> hoo-hah, network-manager
[06:16] <cabrey> hoo-hah, cant do that
[06:16] <hoo-hah> and usual stanzas in interfaces file (per norm in debian) aren't recognised properly
[06:16] <hoo-hah> e.g. auto wlan0
[06:16] <\\`oot> sweet mother of crap - this is amazing!!
[06:17] <blubaustin> ah well if anyone had a old p3
[06:17] <\\`oot> call me impressed
[06:17] <\\`oot> big time
[06:17] <blubaustin> it would have pc133 in it
[06:17] <cabrey> blubaustin, yea this thing has been through quite a few upgrades
[06:17] <rameshwo> any links for visual linux/unix tutorials ????  anyone please..
[06:17] <losher> blubaustin: I think I see one on ebay for less than $10: http://cgi.ebay.com/512MB-PC133-PC-133-RAM-SDRAM-DESKTOP-MEM-RAM-168PIN-512_W0QQitemZ350159842757QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item5187272dc5&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12|66%3A2|39%3A1|72%3A1234|240%3A1309|301%3A1|293%3A1|294%3A50

[06:17] <cabrey> :)
[06:17] <rameshwo> blubaustin ; i have p3.. 256 ram . 735 Mhz processor. i'm in this irc from the same box..
[06:18] <cabrey> G3 > P3
[06:18] <hoo-hah> cabrey: is wicd the preferred alternative?
[06:18] <blubaustin> ah.
[06:18] <blubaustin> so no spare rams lol
[06:18] <blubaustin> 192mb is like..so slow
[06:18] <cabrey> hoo-hah, i think thats also userspace, but ask in #wicd
[06:19] <cabrey> blubaustin, 1.25gb of pc133 goodness here
[06:19] <cabrey> :P
[06:20] <blubaustin> http://pastebin.com/d4ff1a913
[06:20] <blubaustin> there
[06:20] <blubaustin> oh wow 1.25gb is to much
[06:20] <cabrey> network errors
[06:20] <sfire> I have a degraded raid array (software raid) and I need to know how to tell it to re-attempt to build itself.  I have 2 drives with 2 raid arrays running in RAID1
[06:20] <blubaustin> my imac g3 only takes up to 1gb
[06:20] <cabrey> it cant connect
[06:20] <blubaustin> ya I know...
[06:20] <cabrey> !raid
[06:20] <blubaustin> I've tried different mirrors
[06:20] <blubaustin> I can ping debian.org
[06:21] <\\`oot> cabrey: Do you share a "folder" or mount between your host and VMs?
[06:21] <blubaustin> and it comes back fine
[06:21] <cabrey> \\`oot, i think its share, i dont use vms
[06:21] <Tinated> Anyone here know php cuz i cant get into the channel ##php or #mysql
[06:21] <TimReichhart> I need some help on getting my 56k modem to work and I am using ubuntu 9.04 server with HSFi CX11252-11
[06:21] <Tinated> I just need help with 1 thing
[06:22] <\\`oot> ahh.... dammit, the option for USB Devices is grayed out now
[06:22] <\\`oot> vms = virtual machines
[06:22] <losher> blubaustin: looks like dns failure.  Can you ping security.debian.org ?
[06:22] <darlek> !ubuntu
[06:22] <blubaustin> one min
[06:22] <darlek> !ubottu | darlek
[06:22] <blubaustin> yes
[06:22] <blubaustin> I checked my resolv.conf
[06:22] <blubaustin> all that is there for the name server
[06:22] <blubaustin> is: 192.168.0.1
[06:23] <blubaustin> which to me is wierd.
[06:23] <cabrey> its your router probably
[06:23] <blubaustin> well it worked...
[06:23] <blubaustin> til I tried to upgrade to sid
[06:23] <blubaustin> then apt-get didn't work anymore
[06:23] <blubaustin> :(
[06:23] <phillipsm> Tinated: if you are using an irc proxy website they block you
[06:23] <cabrey> blubaustin, what distro are you on?
[06:23] <blubaustin> Debian Lenny
[06:24] <arvind_khadri> blubaustin, this is ubuntu support
[06:24] <cabrey> have you tried #debian?
[06:24] <blubaustin> ya but nobody else would talk
[06:24] <blubaustin> I've posted in the debian fourums
[06:24] <cabrey> what do you mean?
[06:24] <blubaustin> and #linux
[06:24] <blubaustin> #debian, #linuxhelp
[06:24] <blubaustin> etc
[06:24] <cabrey> what do they say?
[06:24] <blubaustin> either nobody knew or nobody would talk in the channel.
[06:25] <Madpilot> blubaustin, nobody at all in #debian? Rly? Try OFTC - although I thought there was a Freenode-OFTC bridge in #debian
[06:25] <cabrey> no way lots of ppl in #debian
[06:25] <blubaustin> they were talking about other stuff, and then silence
[06:25] <blubaustin> for a few hours.
[06:25] <Peter_Pan_Can_Sa> Type  /Server Update 1.13  To update the mIRC client. Failure to do so can cause you to dissconnect, and possibly not be able to connect again. Thanks, Admins..
[06:25] <Madpilot> go to #debian and ask an Ubuntu question - watch the channel erupt with "Ubuntu != Debian" <evil grin> (BTW, please don't actually do this...)
[06:25] <cabrey> just come back every now and then
[06:26] <blubaustin> I need this to work.. I need this pc for school.
[06:26] <cabrey> Madpilot, DO IT :D
[06:26] <losher> blubaustin: so how exactly are you connected to the internet ?
[06:26] <TimReichhart> I need some help on getting my 56k modem to work and I am using ubuntu 9.04 server with HSFi CX11252-11
[06:26] <cabrey> !modem
[06:27] <bullgard4> Synaptic: "LibMagick supports loading and saving a very large set of image formats. It allows a lot of image manipulation as well." Where comes the 'k' from in LibMagick?
[06:27] <TimReichhart> sorry ubottu that doesnt work
[06:27] <blubaustin> qwest
[06:27] <blubaustin> dsl modem 1.5mbps
[06:27] <TimReichhart> it seems the modem is not getting detected
[06:27] <insmod> anyone good with (input/post) for a webpage ? is is cgi etc -- where is a good start or does someone have one I can copy
[06:27] <blubaustin> "advanced modem"
[06:27] <rameshwo> will i be good in unix if i am familiar with linux ( ubuntu ) ?
[06:27] <blubaustin> through cat5e
[06:27] <Madpilot> bullgard4, programmer randomness, I think
[06:28] <darlek> and then a minute passed...
[06:28] <blubaustin> I am talking to u
[06:28] <losher> blubaustin: got your own router in there? Or are you directly connected? Using dhcp?
[06:28] <tabrisnet> rameshwo: try FreeBSD for something more similar to 'UNIX'. albeit it's still not the same as Solaris. and I've never used AIX
[06:28] <blubaustin> I can ping
[06:28] <Myrtti> !away > tabrisnet
[06:28] <blubaustin> its has a built in router
[06:29] <blubaustin> I can browse the net, ping , and etc fine.
[06:29] <bullgard4> Madpilot: I do not believe in randomness here.
[06:29] <losher> bullgard4: Magick is an old english spelling of magic, if that's what you mean...
[06:29] <tabrisnet> Myrtti: i'm not away and the whole '|away' was b/c of freenode telling me "oh you might lose your nick soon!"
[06:29] <bullgard4> losher: Yes. Thank you for explanation.
[06:29] <cabrey> TimReichhart, did you see this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto/Conexant
[06:29] <tabrisnet> Myrtti: aka have to use it, and it's a linked nick.
[06:30] <TimReichhart> yes but is only up to 8.10 but im using 9.04
[06:30] <blubaustin> so any ideas...
[06:30] <darlek> !tab
[06:30] <tabrisnet> blubaustin: I'm failing to see the problem if you're actually connected here... so maybe you need to explain what the problem is (for those who haven't been reading for the last half hour)
[06:31] <bullgard4> Where can I find a definition of 'packet-based networks'? "H.323 describes terminals and other entities that provide multimedia communications services over Packet Based Networks (PBN) which may not provide a guaranteed Quality of Service."
[06:31] <blubaustin> When I try running apt-get update
[06:31] <Myrtti> tabrisnet: the excistance of |away -nick suggests you've used it at one point, so wanted to remind ;-)
[06:31] <rameshwo> can i get(download) freebsd for free ? is it open source ?
[06:31] <cabrey> TimReichhart, im guessing you're talking about the dell drivers?
[06:31] <blubaustin> I get the message "temporary error"
[06:31] <TimReichhart> yes cabery
[06:31] <blubaustin> on all of the mirrors.
[06:31] <tabrisnet> rameshwo: FREE
[06:31] <Stupendoussteve> rameshwo: Yes it is
[06:31] <losher> blubaustin: can you browse to http://security.debian.org ?
[06:32] <blubaustin> I can ping it.
[06:32] <blubaustin> let me see if I can "browse it"
[06:32] <Myrtti> blubaustin: the big key on your keyboard isn't meant to be the primary way of punctuation ;-) it makes your stuff a bit more difficult to read
[06:32] <blubaustin> its a habbit
[06:32] <cabrey> TimReichhart, this is a Conexant modem, right?
[06:32] <TimReichhart> correct cabery
[06:33] <blubaustin> yes I can browse it
[06:33] <darlek> !ask
[06:33] <tabrisnet> blubaustin: is it more verbose than 'temporary error' ?
[06:33] <whatvn> lunch time!
[06:34] <blubaustin> http://pastebin.com/d4ff1a913
[06:34] <Jereme> wow!you much so hunger
[06:35] <blubaustin> tabrisnet does that give u a better idea?
[06:35] <cabrey> TimReichhart, run uname -r in the terminal for me
[06:35] <tabrisnet> blubaustin: sounds like a DNS problem more than a HTTP problem.
[06:35] <Myrtti> but hold on, that's debian!
[06:36] <blubaustin> I can browse the web, irc, IM, ping, just not apt-get update or anything with apt-get.
[06:36] <TimReichhart> its 2.6.28-11-server cabrey
[06:36] <tabrisnet> blubaustin: tbh this is sounding distressingly like you're behind a transparent proxy.
[06:36] <blubaustin> I'm not.
[06:36] <TimReichhart> I got the newest driver installed but i got error message
[06:36] <blubaustin> clean install.
[06:36] <cabrey> TimReichhart, from linuxant?
[06:36] <Guest73956> hello - i have tried to make my own custom ubuntu distro (just a few updates and extra installations ...) - i tried using the remastersys method but when the operating system boots up there is kernel error with linux header-generic pointing to nonexistent initrd.img in the boot directory . anyone know what could be going on ?
[06:36] <TimReichhart> yes cabery
[06:36] <tabrisnet> blubaustin: well, youy could be behind a _transparent_ proxy put up by your ISP... albeit i don't know if qwest does that.
[06:37] <cabrey> TimReichhart, hmm what was the error?
[06:37] <blubaustin> well like I Said after i tried to go to sid it all went to hell.
[06:37] <losher> blubaustin: please type: dig security.debian.org and paste the output
[06:37] <tabrisnet> blubaustin: `host security.debian.org`
[06:37] <darlek> Guest13513, check the grub menu and make sure it's pointing to your custom kernel not the stock kernel.
[06:37] <TimReichhart> cabrey dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of hsfmodem:
[06:37] <TimReichhart>  hsfmodem depends on alsa-driver-linuxant; however:
[06:37] <darlek> Guest13513, I had that once
[06:37] <Rerey_duank> alow
[06:38] <Rerey_duank> alow
[06:38] <tabrisnet> Rerey_duank: huhwhat?
[06:38] <blubaustin> http://pastebin.com/d469797ca
[06:39] <tabrisnet> blubaustin: doesn't look wrong
[06:39] <cabrey> TimReichhart, well you can purchase their $20 package, which you would need anyway to get the full speed and they will help you through the installation
[06:39] <blubaustin> so try the host thingy?
[06:39] <blubaustin> what does that do?
[06:39] <TimReichhart> im not going to pay dam 20 dollars
[06:39] <tabrisnet> blubaustin: nah... dig is as good as host
[06:39] <blubaustin> k
[06:39] <ColdSun> does anyone know where to get python imaging for arm?  example filename would be python-imaging_1.1.6-1ubuntu5_arm.rar
[06:39] <tabrisnet> blubaustin: dig is more verbose. i figured the short version was good enough
[06:39] <TimReichhart> I guess I will down grade to 8.04
[06:40] <blubaustin> do I need to add the DNS server to resolv.conf?
[06:40] <tabrisnet> blubaustin: no, b/c the server taht responded was the one in your resolv.conf
[06:40] <Myrtti> ok, blubaustin, tabrisnet: this discussion *IS* offtopic to this channel. Please take it elsewhere.
[06:40] <tabrisnet> ColdSun: why would it be rar?
[06:40] <tabrisnet> blubaustin: fwiw, I'm in #debian
[06:40] <blubaustin> well I guess me being in school, and me having to have this working by tommorow doesn't count.
[06:41] <blubaustin> fine...
[06:41] <losher> blubaustin: looks ok. Your router at 192.168.0.1 is proxying dns requests to your isp. I'm running out of ideas. Actually, I'd power cycle the router at this point....
[06:41] <Madpilot> blubaustin, this is #ubuntu, not #debian, remember?
[06:41] <ColdSun> not sure
[06:41] <blubaustin> tabrisnet and losher in ebian now
[06:42] <blubaustin> since admin is getting pissed.
[06:42] <blubaustin> and apparently did read my issue with me going all over IRC and forums.
[06:42] <blubaustin> and google.
[06:42] <losher> blubaustin: Madpilot: he knows, but to be honest, I haven't seen anything ubuntu-specific in his problem so far....
[06:42] <cabrey> wow some people...
[06:42] <blubaustin> ubuntu is debian based
[06:42] <Myrtti> losher: doesn't matter.
[06:42] <blubaustin> with out debian
[06:42] <blubaustin> no ubuntu
[06:42] <Myrtti> NEXT
[06:43] <losher> Sorry, blubaustin. What Myrtti says goes....
[06:43] <cabrey> doesnt matter looks like he is getting help in #debian
[06:44] <Myrtti> cabrey: that's weird, since tabrisnet said he's there as well
[06:44] <Myrtti> anyway
[06:44] <tabrisnet> Myrtti: i wasn't responding at the time, most likely... I do idle most of the time
[06:44] <losher> cabrey: good...
[06:44] <cabrey> same i observe
[06:45] <cabrey> anyways... i'm out g'night
[06:46] <mattalexx> Anyone know of a plugin or something that will allow me to shrink gedit icons or take the text out from underneath each or make them generally smaller?
[06:46] <mattalexx> ... generally smaller?
[06:47] <citizen42alpha> mattalex: download source, edit and recompile.
[06:48] <Madpilot> mattalexx, you mean the toolbar icons in gedit?
[06:48] <Myrtti> mattalexx: what are you trying to achieve?
[06:49] <mattalexx> Myrtti: They are a waste of space. The icons are big and there's text under each one.
[06:49] <Jomyoot> Does Google use Ubuntu for its server farm?
[06:50] <mattalexx> Myrtti: I've seen the option to put the text to the right or remove it in other apps.
[06:50] <mattalexx> Madpilot, yes.
[06:51] <Madpilot> mattalexx, that's a configurable option somewhere already
[06:51] <mattalexx> Madpilot, Hmm, I couldn't find it in Gedit
[06:52] <mattalexx> Is it hidden in some text config file somewhere maybe?
[06:52] <Slart> Jomyoot: I think they have a custom distro..I doubt they run vanilla ubuntu
[06:52] <hateball> mattalexx: probably tucked away in gconf-editor somewhere
[06:53] <Stupendoussteve> I am quite sure they don't run Ubuntu period
[06:53] <Stupendoussteve> or any Linux distro
[06:53] <Stupendoussteve> er
[06:53] <Stupendoussteve> released distro
[06:53] <FloodBot3> Stupendoussteve: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:53] <rameshwo> guys, i'm thinking to learn VI   will it be waste or i should learn it ??
[06:53] <Stupendoussteve> :P FloodBot3
[06:53] <Jomyoot> Slart: is it based on Ubuntu or Redhat?
[06:53] <Myrtti> it's offtopic ;-)
[06:53] <Myrtti> !offtopic
[06:54] <Myrtti> rameshwo: learning new skill is always a good thing
[06:54] <Stupendoussteve> Jomyoot: Suggest taking it to the offtopic :)
[06:55] <rameshwo> Myrtti : ya but if there's other nice than vi then i would learn it
[06:55] <rameshwo> myrtti : without wasting time in vi
[06:55] <mattalexx> Got it! Thanks, hateball
[06:56] <squiggie> hello all, I'm wondering if there is an application out there that is a uPnP media server and has the ability to connect to Hulu, CBS, netflix etc... for ubuntu? I'm looking for something like PlayOn but open source or GPL.
[06:56] <whois> first I wan tto apologize for being lazy.
[06:56] <hateball> squiggie: I know Ps3Mediaserver does at least Youtube... not sure what else it can do
[06:57] <whois> How do u set ubuntu to accept remote connections over the internet
[06:57] <davidb_csh> rameshwo, I'd recommend learning it. It's got a fairly steep learning curve but I think it's very useful to at least be familiar with
[06:57] <whois> ie remote desktop
[06:57] <davidb_csh> whois, I think system > preferences > Remote desktop
[06:57] <davidb_csh> and then check that box
[06:58] <davidb_csh> "allow other users to view your desktop"
[06:58] <whois> for some reason the configuration set local connection within my LAN
[06:59] <squiggie> hateball: thanks, I'll check into that. I hadn't heard of that one.
[06:59] <L4HB> hello eveyone
[06:59] <phillipsm> whois: that makes sense though doesn't it...why would the default for non-techie users allow outside connections?
[07:00] <whois> it does, but there are no preferences to set remote connection beyond the LAN
[07:00] <saujiro> helooo alll
[07:01] <saujiro> may i ask abaut kiba-dock
[07:01] <whois> I am going away, but I need to do some work using the desktop
[07:01] <davidb_csh> whois, I think you just need to set up port forwarding on your router and it will work
[07:01] <whois> I set up port 5900
[07:01] <phillipsm> whois: well i would think you would have to setup a port forward to the port on the computer with the remote desktop
[07:01] <Myrtti> whois: "beyond the LAN" is something that ubuntu has no control over - if the machine is behind a NATing router, then it's up to the router to be configured as davidb_csh said
[07:02] <saujiro> kipas _angin ! boleh minta bantuan g kk
[07:02] <whois> I opened port 5900 wc I believe ubuntu uses for RDC
[07:02] <squiggie> hateball: apparently it doesn't have Hulu or netflix support. Does anyone elseh ave any other suggestions?
[07:02] <Stupendoussteve> whois: 5900 is VNC
[07:03] <Stupendoussteve> whois: Which is what Ubuntu uses, yes
[07:03] <whois> should I use the default 3389
[07:04] <Stupendoussteve> Are you trying to connect to Windows or Linux?
[07:04] <jmk6f4> squiggie: I don't know if it has the uPnP capabilities, but have you checked Boxee?  I don't know how far they'v gotten though, it may not even have some of the things you need.
[07:04] <Stupendoussteve> Ubuntu does not use RDP for the remote capability, it uses VNC which is 5900 and up
[07:04] <whois> its an Ubutnu box I want to connect to
[07:04] <andruk> where do i go to upgrade the ubuntu kernel to 2.6.29 on jaunty?
[07:05] <Stupendoussteve> I would make sure you can connect to that port though, before leaving
[07:05] <booi> i don't think they've released an official jaunty 2.6.29 kernel
[07:05] <whois> Thank you
[07:05] <WIGGMPk> whois: 3389 is the default only for Windows Terminal Service (RDP)
[07:06] <L4HB> Hello. this is my first time using IRC. If you don't mind I have a couple of questions to ask.
[07:06] <Stupendoussteve> andruk: There isn't .29 for Jaunty yet, you would have to custom compile
[07:06] <Stupendoussteve> !ask | L4HB
[07:07] <Myrtti> andruk, Stupendoussteve or find a precompiled one from somewhere, I believe the x-swat team has one
[07:07] <L4HB> thanks ubottu
[07:08] <kuhzoo> how do I stop ubuntu from playing whatever the mic picks up?
[07:08] <forceflow> kuhzoo: turn the mic volume down : preferences -> sound
[07:08] <L3dPlatedLinux> I tried to join two flv files as you suggested but what i get is a
[07:08] <L3dPlatedLinux> third file with a size which is the sum of original one sizes but
[07:08] <L3dPlatedLinux> when I play this video just the first one is played. I tried this with cat c
[07:08] <anom01y> !mplayer
[07:08] <L3dPlatedLinux> oops
[07:08] <FloodBot3> L3dPlatedLinux: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:08] <anom01y> !codecs
[07:08] <sobersabre> hi. I have ubuntu studio and I've "reverted" back to ubuntu, replaced the kernel to the "generic", and removed all the packages with the name "ubuntustudio" in them.
[07:08] <forceflow> L3dPlatedLinux: try to join them with ffmpeg
[07:09] <sobersabre> What I cannot get rid of is the windows behaviour.
[07:09] <kuhzoo> forceflow: that makes recording in audacity really hard
[07:09] <sobersabre> currently maximization removes the title bar of the window.
[07:09] <andruk> Stupendoussteve, Myrtti thanks, i found a precompiled one.
[07:09] <sobersabre> this is annoying since I'm working with 2 displays, and I often need to move windows 1/2 the screen left.
[07:09] <sobersabre> or similar actions.
[07:10] <Stupendoussteve> andruk: Be aware, those kernels are unsupported by Ubuntu. Bug reports and such involving the kernel will probably be closed as invalid
[07:10] <L3dPlatedLinux> forceflow,  I have added them in  winff ( which I assume is the same thing and it coverts them as 8 septate files as they are when i load them in
[07:10] <sobersabre> does anybody know what I need to change to have the standard behaviour ?
[07:11] <sobersabre> maybe wipe out the .gnome* dirs ?
[07:11] <andruk> Stupendoussteve: oh yeah, i know, i just need the ps3eye driver support, amongst other things.
[07:11] <Stupendoussteve> Good deal :)
[07:15] <squiggie> jmk6f4: It appears that Boxee is a uPnP server but it cannot stream flash content like Hulu or Netflix which is primarily what I'm looking for. Any other ideas?
[07:15] <gangs20003> Hey now that i have ubuntu, i have no idea what to do with it......how am i supposed to attain unix mastery when i dont even know what that is.....any help, advice, support, guidance, cheese burgers?
[07:15] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: Lots of good books
[07:15] <gangs20003> like?
[07:15] <jmk6f4> squiggie: No, I'm sorry but I didn't see that suggested and thought I should.  For some reason I thought it was able to stream Hulu, but I think they shut it down.
[07:16] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: You could get the Ubuntu Pocket Guide, a PDF is available for free at www.ubuntupocketguide.com/download_main.html
[07:17] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: Depending on what you want, something like The Practical Guide to Ubuntu Linux may not be a bad idea, or a book on Linux in general, or another related subject you're interested in
[07:17] <Stupendoussteve> Or you can just use it for what you do normally
[07:17] <L4HB> Is there any difference between installing software directly from the repositories or using a *.deb file downloaded from the author's site.
[07:18] <squiggie> jmk6f4: Thanks for the suggestion. I believe it can steam Hulu content to itself, but as far as serving it out via upnp to other devices, that is what it cannot do and precicesly what I need.
[07:18] <Stupendoussteve> L4HB: Software from a repository will be automatically updated and is supported either by Canonical or the MOTU
[07:18] <jmk6f4> squiggie: Understandable.  Happy hunting and I hope that you find what you are looking for!
[07:18] <squiggie> jmk6f4: thanks! me too.
[07:18] <Stupendoussteve> L4HB: Also stuff in the repos is known to be clear of viruses and such things
[07:19] <L4HB> so it's the support which outweighs the newer version.
[07:19] <gangs20003> stupendoussteve: great that was welcome advise but can you atleast tell me why? you know.....why is unix better then microsoft for programming? how is the internet based on unix.....im just confused, is there anywhere where i can get these answers?
[07:19] <Stupendoussteve> L4HB: That's up to you
[07:19] <Stupendoussteve> L4HB: Chances are you wouldn't have problems, but if you did with that program the author would be where you go for support
[07:20] <L4HB> i c
[07:20] <L4HB> that makes sense
[07:20] <losher> L4HB: also, installing from a repository will generally install any needed dependencies automatically. Installing from a deb package will usually complain about dependencies if they aren't there, but you'd have to go and hunt them down and install them yourself, which is much more work
[07:20] <andruk> gangs20003: one of hte major ways linux is better for software development is that you can easily find and download the source code for nearly every piece of software you run on linux.
[07:21] <Stupendoussteve> losher: Untrue if you use gdebi, it will install dependencies from the repos unless they aren't available
[07:21] <andruk> gangs20003: including linux itself
[07:21] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: Not to mention you can program from any text editor out of the box, and then use a built in free compiler to put it together
[07:21] <andruk> gangs20003: but if you arent a programmer, it is still a viable alternative to windows if thats what youre looking for
[07:21] <losher> Stupendoussteve: I didn't know about gdebi. Thanks!
[07:22] <Stupendoussteve> losher: It's a very convenient program, makes installing from a deb almost as easy as the repos :)
[07:22] <gangs20003> being a programmer is what im aiming at but the shift from microsoft to unix is....difficult for me as of now
[07:22] <losher> Stupendoussteve: No kidding. Learn something new every day...
[07:23] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: It is a different environment, I find unix to be much more logical and easy to work with
[07:23] <losher> gangs20003: I would
[07:23] <losher> gangs20003: I would've thought there were more jobs for windows programmers than for linux....
[07:24] <gangs20003> im not looking for jobs
[07:24] <L4HB> all answers to my questions (with my nickname) are in red. is this coincidental or is it part of the why Xchat works
[07:24] <losher> gangs20003: that's nice. Independently wealthy?
[07:24] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: You might see if your library has a Linux book. Some of the specifics may be different but the general overview of what it is, what you can accomplish, and why you would use it will be the same
[07:24] <L4HB> all answers to my questions (with my nickname) are in red. is this coincidental or is it part of the how Xchat works
[07:25] <Stupendoussteve> if you don't want to buy a book :)
[07:25] <Myrtti> L4HB: that's how it works
[07:25] <Stupendoussteve> L4HB: It's by design, so you can see that someone is talking to you
[07:25] <gangs20003> ill do that and  losher im already joining the navy, pentesting will be more of a hobby
[07:25] <L4HB> neat
[07:25] <whatvn> gangs20003, read and practice will be your right way
[07:25] <Stupendoussteve> L4HB: Helps keep things organized, no? :)
[07:25] <gangs20003> whatvn: thats just it i dont know WHAT to practice lol
[07:26] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: Practice using it :) Learn by baby steps. Ubuntu has very good documentation
[07:26] <gangs20003> okay will do
[07:26] <whatvn> gangs20003, 1st question for yourself: what do you want?
[07:27] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: For a good start, other than the book link I sent you, consider https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/index.html
[07:27] <gangs20003> i want to learn python and use unix for pentesting
[07:27] <gangs20003> btw i have a problem in trying to dload xchat
[07:28] <L4HB> back to the repositories.  some packages (like flightgear) haven't been updated for over a year. is there a particular reason for that.
[07:28] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: Chances are you don't even need to
[07:28] <maxagaz> i've just installed virtualbox on hardy, how to run it now ? it's not in the menu
[07:28] <gangs20003> i cant do it it says something like im trying to dload an older version and i already have it
[07:28] <maxagaz> i mean the graphic interface
[07:28] <gangs20003> i cant find it though
[07:28] <whatvn> virtualbox
[07:28] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: Through the add/remove programs or package manager, or from a website?
[07:28] <whatvn> that's all
[07:28] <gangs20003> website
[07:29] <gangs20003> but i cant even dload it(in ubuntu)
[07:29] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: It's in the repositories, you don't have to (and it's not suggested you do so)
[07:29] <whatvn> dload means direct load?
[07:29] <Stupendoussteve> dload = download
[07:29] <gangs20003> download actually
[07:30] <gangs20003> how do i use it then?
[07:30] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: Open Applications > Add/Remove..., change the pull down to All Available Applications and search for Xchat
[07:30] <whatvn> sudo apt-get install xchat
[07:30] <Stupendoussteve> That's another way, yes
[07:30] <Stupendoussteve> Then check the box next to Xchat and hit Apply Changes
[07:30] <WIGGMPk> Can anyone take a look at this http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d5593ea32 I am trying to get a custom kernel installed and it fails when I am trying to install the debian package..
[07:31] <losher> gangs20003: if by pentesting you mean penetration testing, the majority of exploits are against windows systems
[07:31] <gangs20003> i tried sudo apt-get install xchat but it didnt work
[07:31] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: What did it say?
[07:32] <gangs20003> i gotta check again ill be back in a few seconds
[07:32] <Stupendoussteve> Ok
[07:33] <zod21> what up
[07:37] <dpreacher> hello
[07:37] <L4HB> back to the repositories.  some packages (like flightgear) haven't been updated for over a year. is there a particular reason for that.
[07:38] <Stupendoussteve> Oh yes I was just about to check
[07:41] <e0n`> hmmm, how can I convert my dell mini 9 to UNR instead of their own launcher and such
[07:41] <kenyon> L4HB: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/311859
[07:42] <dpreacher> I am trying to get to do something that I've seen possible with Ubuntu but am failing to get it working through other distro. I'd like to know how its possible to share the screen on the local desktop session with a remote user via VNC on ubuntu. I am using x11vnc+XVnc and as per http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-newbie/6024-problem-vnc-2.html (old thread) it was not possible but somehow it works on ubuntu. Anybody knows if there is some implementat
[07:42] <dpreacher> le to be performed on other distro? By design of gnu/linux distros, this looks hgihly unlikely
[07:43] <FloodBot3> dpreacher: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:43] <dpreacher> my irc software did that
[07:43] <Slart> dpreacher: you've tried x11vnc?
[07:43] <dpreacher> yes Slart
[07:43] <Slart> dpreacher: or that just hands over control completely to the guest?
[07:44] <dpreacher> no handover... guests have to connect via separate session. I need screen sharing to work. one local and one remote.
[07:44] <mattalexx> Hey, anyone know how to make every nautilus view open as a new tab in the same window?
[07:45] <Stupendoussteve> L4HB: Most Ubuntu packages come from a Debian upstream. At the moment they haven't released an updated package
[07:45] <dpreacher> if there's anything other than VNC i'll try that. but VNC is good enough solution as it works on ubuntu...so i need to understand what is specially configured
[07:45] <gangs20003> good news is i found xchat in add/remove, bad news is my nets not working in ubuntu anymore
[07:45] <dpreacher> thank you for your time
[07:45] <gangs20003> it worked fine yesterday
[07:45] <Stupendoussteve> L4HB: Somebody could decide to build a package and have it uploaded, but it would take someone being interested and doing so (volunteer work)
[07:45] <gangs20003> i used the sudo pppoeconf
[07:46] <gangs20003> but today...nada
[07:46] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: You use pppoe? Are you connected to a router or directly to the modem?
[07:46] <gangs20003> modem
[07:46] <gangs20003> through ethernet
[07:46] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: Have you tried configuring the connection using network manager? (the network icon in the top)
[07:46] <Slart> dpreacher: ok.. I just ran a test here with a laptop.. using x11vnc I'm able to use the laptop from the desktop.. and the laptop can be used locally at the same time..
[07:47] <Slart> dpreacher: is this what you want to achieve?
[07:47] <L4HB> so it's not a matter of simply reminding the Ubuntu developers of the newer version.
[07:47] <sfire> I just had one of the drives fail in my RAID array.. I might have done the dumbest thing and rebooted the server... does anyone know if this machine will boot back up?? its in a datacenter and I cannot physically touch it
[07:47] <sfire> using software raid 1
[07:47] <gangs20003> yeah well yesterday there were 2 connections there , one was there by default and the other that i created but today ..nothing
[07:47] <rikki_max> anyone know any bugs with gedit on intrepid?
[07:48] <dpreacher> you are on the same session Slart? like you can move your mouse on laptop or max or min windows and they'd happen so on the desktop?
[07:48] <dpreacher> hi sfire :)
[07:48] <Stupendoussteve> sfire: It should, as it's mirrored
[07:48] <Slart> rikki_max: check in launchpad..  I haven't run into any bugs in gedit
[07:48] <rikki_max> slart thnks
[07:48] <Slart> dpreacher: yes.. it's the same session..
[07:48] <Stupendoussteve> sfire: It could be that it takes some fiddling though
[07:48] <sfire> Stupendoussteve, will it boot on its own?
[07:48] <sfire> or is BIOS going to pick the wrong drive and it hangs?
[07:48] <Slart> dpreacher: I can move the mouse pointer either from my desktop, using vnc, or locally on the laptop.. end result is the same
[07:49] <gangs20003> stupendoussteve:  yeah well yesterday there were 2 connections there , one was there by default and the other that i created but today ..nothing
[07:49] <dpreacher> yes Slart, that is something I need to know why it works in the Ubuntu distro
[07:49] <dpreacher> i mean not why...how
[07:49] <dpreacher> :)
[07:49] <Slart> dpreacher: use x11vnc instead of regular vnc
[07:49] <Stupendoussteve> sfire: You said you rebooted it, did it come back up?
[07:49] <Slart> !info x11vnc | dpreacher
[07:49] <sfire> Stupendoussteve, I'm trying to figure out if its not responding to the pings because its fscking the drive on boot.. or if its really really down
[07:49] <sfire> Stupendoussteve, yea.. I told it to reboot about 20 min ago :(
[07:50] <Stupendoussteve> sfire: It's possible the bootloader was on the drive that failed, among others. I am not familiar with lvm enough to go into recovery steps
[07:50] <dpreacher> Slart when you connect from your vnc viewer, do you specify the port?
[07:50] <max_> Hi, I reccently got a laptop and put Ubuntu on it. The nvidia in it supports resolution up to 2500xsomething but the highest i can set it in the nvidia settings is 1366x768. Does anyone know how i can use a larger resolution?
[07:51] <dpreacher> i'll brb with the error i get
[07:51] <Slart> dpreacher: I can do that.. but if I use the default port there is no need
[07:52] <gangs20003> stupendoussteve??
[07:52] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: No way to configure a connection in there?
[07:53] <gangs20003>  yesterday there were 2 connections there , one was there by default and the other that i created but today ..nothing
[07:53] <Natanaiel> does ubuntu server have squid?
[07:53] <ziroday> Natanaiel: its in the repo's
[07:53] <dpreacher> Slart I assume you start vncserver without a port number. just type vncserver. or do you specify :0 or :1 ?
[07:54] <mattalexx> Hey, anyone know how to make every nautilus view open as a new tab in the same window?
[07:54] <Slart> dpreacher: I start it with "x11vnc -usepw".. remember.. I'm not using the regular vnc server.. that will create a new session which I don't want..
[07:54] <Stupendoussteve> !pppoe | gangs20003 (see if this helps)
[07:54] <dpreacher> Slart now you are talking interesting stuff
[07:54] <Slart> dpreacher: the -usepw thing is just so it gets the password from a configuration file
[07:54]  * WebDawg anyone here
[07:55] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: Actually, you should be able to do it with network manager
[07:55] <WebDawg> hey
[07:55] <WebDawg> this is the only channel alive
[07:55] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: This is a DSL connection?
[07:55] <gangs20003> yes
[07:55] <WebDawg> i need someone to go to http://208.43.54.176/~phybible/tiki and tell me if its working or not.
[07:55] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: Are you booted into Ubuntu on that machine?
[07:56] <Slart> !ot | WebDawg
[07:56] <WebDawg> this is the only channel alive i just said
[07:56] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: You should be able to right click the network icon, choose Edit Connections, and click DSL and click add
[07:56] <WebDawg> i figured that 3 seconds of someone clicking a good link wouldnt hurt
[07:56] <gangs20003> yeah i did that
[07:56] <Stupendoussteve> WebDawg: works fine
[07:57] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: And nothing?
[07:57] <WebDawg> dam
[07:57] <quibbler> WebDawg, it works
[07:57] <WebDawg> thanks
[07:57] <gangs20003> then i changed the name to my providers, put in my username and password(i dont know what service is) and clicked ok
[07:58] <gangs20003> then nothing still appears when i click on the icon in the upper right f the screen but i can see my connection in the connections editer
[07:58] <gangs20003> but i cant connect
[08:00] <gangs20003> im gonna try again to see if i got soething wrong

[08:01] <jitu3485> hi I have a chinese pdf, how can I covert it to english?
[08:02] <FloodBot3> !netsplit
[08:02] <Slart> jitu3485: hand it to someone who knows both languages.. pay them money
[08:02] <Slart> jitu3485: I'm not sure if google translates chinese to english.. if it does you might be able to use that
[08:02] <jitu3485> Slart, :) I mean do ubuntu supports some software to do that
[08:03] <jitu3485> k
[08:03] <WIGGMPk> Can anyone take a look at this http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d5593ea32 I am trying to get a custom kernel installed and it fails when I am trying to install the debian package..
[08:04] <Slart> jitu3485: no.. ubuntu doesn't have any translation software, that I know of
[08:04] <simplexio> WIGGMPk: i have same problem, and i use --force-all option on dpkg -i
[08:04] <WIGGMPk> simplexio: are you installing the 2.6.29-4 kernel?
[08:04] <simplexio> WIGGMPk: that debian systems probasbly needs something more, like nvidia driver or something
[08:05] <Stupendoussteve> I would expect it to error on the driver, not installing the package
[08:05] <WIGGMPk> simplexio: it cant be that simple lol
[08:05] <Stupendoussteve> jitu3485: Try http://www.labnol.org/internet/tools/translate-pdf-word-documents-online-google-translate/3553/
[08:05] <Lucky^> anyone can help me
[08:05] <WIGGMPk> simplexio: are you using kernelcheck to compile yours?
[08:05] <simplexio> WIGGMPk: i tried 2.6.29, for somereason it didnt work so i still run 2.6.28.? something
[08:05] <Lucky^> i have some problem with graphic card
[08:05] <Slart> Lucky^: just ask your question.. give !details
[08:06] <simplexio> WIGGMPk: make oldconfig, make-kpkg ...
[08:06] <WIGGMPk> simplexio: but you had a problem installing 2.6.29?
[08:06] <t_sean_max> Hello~
[08:07] <Lucky^> i have computer with vga card Intel Corporation 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller
[08:07] <t_sean_max> I'm trying to copy file from ubuntu in vmware to windows
[08:07] <simplexio> WIGGMPk: i have had that problem sine 2..28.3
[08:07] <WIGGMPk> simplexio: AWESOME, the --force-all option worked.. its going thru the config..
[08:07] <Lucky^> but i don't know why it's not work at game
[08:07] <simplexio> WIGGMPk: it fails on some post-install process
[08:07] <t_sean_max> I'm using pscp
[08:07] <t_sean_max> and it's really slower than sftp
[08:07] <t_sean_max> why?
[08:07] <simplexio> WIGGMPk: and keep old kernel there too
[08:07] <WIGGMPk> simplexio: what "make oldconfig" is that were your problem was?
[08:08] <simplexio> WIGGMPk: what is kernelcheck
[08:08] <WIGGMPk> simplexio: kernelcheck is a piece of software that Master Kernel wrote to auto download and compile kernels (newbie friendly)
[08:09] <jitu3485> Stupendoussteve, great link , I am trying this , hope it works . thanks
[08:09] <WIGGMPk> simplexio: is it safe to get rid of everything in /usr/src even my current kernel headers?
[08:09] <simplexio> WIGGMPk: i make my kernels that old way, and then using make-kpkg to ubuntu .deb
[08:09] <dpreacher> does anyone know if smokeping is available on any ubuntu-compatible repositories close to Asia-Pacific http://oss.oetiker.ch/smokeping/
[08:09] <dpreacher> !smokeping
[08:09] <simplexio> WIGGMPk: make mrproper is safe to do after compile in linux source dir
[08:10] <dpreacher> its ok
[08:10] <WIGGMPk> simplexio: you should check out the forum post.. its just a scripted application.. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=311158
[08:10] <Lucky^> please tell me to install vga Intel Corporation 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller
[08:10] <simplexio> WIGGMPk: and probably you can remove all sources, exept those linux-headers dirs, you need headers if you need to compile more stuff that kernel
[08:11] <WIGGMPk> simplexio: im still getting an error
[08:12] <L3dPlatedLinux> ok for the love of god I am stuck and google isnt helping I have 8 different  .flv I would like to make as one and the cat *.flv > name.flv works as in the right size is there but when played its only 10 min long which is the same as the very first clip. size is there but where is the rest if the video file?
[08:12] <klem> hi
[08:13] <Lucky^> Slart :: please tell me to install vga Intel Corporation 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller
[08:13] <Slart> L3dPlatedLinux: can you open one of the files in avidemux?
[08:13] <JEssyb> Can anyone explain to me how to uninstall ubuntu and put windows back on? :\
[08:14] <L3dPlatedLinux> nope says something about there being no codec for the audio or something
[08:14] <simplexio> L3dPlatedLinux: cat stuff >> file.flv ?
[08:14] <Slart> Lucky^: look.. I can't help you .. I have no idea what to do with your intel card.. if I knew I would have told you already
[08:14] <Lucky^> hmm :(
[08:14] <simplexio> L3dPlatedLinux: >> appends, and im not sure does it work with flv files
[08:14] <Slart> L3dPlatedLinux: hmm.. can you play them in mplayer?
[08:15] <L3dPlatedLinux> i tried the two >> same as using one
[08:15] <L3dPlatedLinux> yes
[08:15] <L3dPlatedLinux> plays fine
[08:15] <simplexio> JEssyb: use fdisk to remove all partition, create new one with some windows flag, reboot and insert windows isntall cd
[08:15] <Slart> L3dPlatedLinux: one sec.. I'll go look up something
[08:15] <L3dPlatedLinux> ok
[08:16] <JEssyb> Ok,letme say the reason im uninstalling ubuntu is its way too advanced for me so can you repeat that in a sense a noob can understand? ^^
[08:17] <hateball> !windows | JEssyb
[08:17] <Slart> JEssyb: just install windows the regular way.. remove any linux partitions using the windows installer
[08:17] <JEssyb> the thing is when i put the disk in it doesnt do anything its like it wont even read it
[08:17] <Slart> JEssyb: you should really ask in a windows channel for help with installing windows
[08:17] <yaris123456789> how do i navigate between different screens instead of doing screen -r pid each time
[08:18] <hateball> yaris123456789: you should be able to bind that to a key I think...
[08:18] <JEssyb> Start..windows wont know anything about this seeings how you have to get ubuntu off before installing windows, I do know how to install windows normally but it wont on here
[08:18] <stupendousness> Is there a precompiled kernel for ubuntu 8.04 with the likes of 2.6.27, 2.6.28 or 2.6.29 and where can I get one?
[08:18] <kraut> moin
[08:19] <JEssyb> slart* sorry
[08:19] <Slart> JEssyb: ok.. if you say so
[08:20] <``y7> how do i delete a directory? rm doesn't seem to work
[08:20] <hateball> stupendousness: there might be a PPA... then again the whole point of 8.04 is to have a stable and tested kernel
[08:20] <hateball> ``y7: "rmdir <dir>" or "rm -r <dir>"
[08:20] <``y7> ty
[08:20] <hateball> ``y7: rmdir will remove empty dirs, rm -r will remove files AND dir
[08:21] <owner> nya ha~~ not bad
[08:21] <Slart> L3dPlatedLinux: hmm.. I just tried opening an flv-file from avidemux and it worked for me.. have you installed w32codecs?
[08:21] <owner> flash is still horribly tearing under nvidia drivers, but otherwise nice
[08:21] <simplexio> yaris123456789: why different screens.. screen ahs ability run many windows in ctrl+a c , ctrl+a n .. etc
[08:22] <L3dPlatedLinux> yes but as I might be noobish let doulbe check that
[08:22] <CapaH> Question, When the ubuntu splash screen is visible during boot up (the slider going from the left to right) - is there some hotkey I can push in order to see the technical details of what it is doing?
[08:22] <gigasoft> is necessary to have anti-virus on ubuntu  9.04
[08:22] <Stupendoussteve> CapaH: Alt F1
[08:22] <hateball> !virus | gigasoft
[08:22] <stupendousness> hateball: what is PPA and the newer kernel on 8.04 is for testing only and not a permanent solution.
[08:22] <CapaH> Ok next question...
[08:22] <hateball> !ppa | stupendousness
[08:22] <Slart> gigasoft: not unless you want to check windows files.. ie a mail server or storage server
 thanks
[08:23] <L3dPlatedLinux> Slart,  yes it is
[08:23] <JEssyb> you would think such an OS trying to pave their way into schools would have a little nicer community gonna have to buy a whole new computer just to get rid of this thing
[08:23] <Stupendoussteve> JEEBsv: What is wrong?
[08:23] <CapaH> I have Ubuntu 9.04 32bit installed, and I am TRYING to install 64 bit -- this is Intel 64 architecture - when I boot from the live disk, it gives me all sorts of nasty "Buffer I/O error" and never seems to load into a GUI -- any ideas?
[08:23] <CapaH> I *really* do not think my harddisk is bad in any way -- this is a new computer, and it has been working perfectly fine with Ubuntu 32 bit
[08:23] <Slart> CapaH: bad cd? have you tried the check cd option?
[08:23] <Stupendoussteve> CapaH: You sure the ISO you downloaded or disc wasn't corrupted?
[08:24] <gigasoft> thanks you all :)
[08:24] <CapaH> good idea I will check that
[08:24] <Slart> L3dPlatedLinux: hmm.. what kind of codec does the files use?
[08:24] <Stupendoussteve> JEEBsv: Please ignore, btw. Was meant for someone else :)
[08:24] <NKjoep> hi all :)
[08:24] <L3dPlatedLinux> Slart, this is what I get when i open one of the files in avidemux = Save (A+V) will generate bad AVI. Save audio will work.
[08:25] <L3dPlatedLinux> Slart,  and the video dosent play it just a green box
[08:25] <L3dPlatedLinux> flash
[08:25] <``y7> how do i kill a program running in wine?
[08:25] <ihmSeinerSelbst> hi
[08:26] <indus> ``y7: kill wine
[08:26] <indus> :)
[08:26] <Slart> L3dPlatedLinux: no way of seeing which codec it uses?
[08:26] <CapaH> What exactly is the difference between pkill and kill?
[08:26] <ihmSeinerSelbst> i want start up and get an error: "invalid compressed format (err=1) | Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount Root fs on unknown block(0,0)
[08:26] <L3dPlatedLinux> Flash video (video/x-flv) thats the type
[08:26] <indus> L3dPlatedLinux: well in totem sidebar it shows codec
[08:26] <hh666> Hello
[08:26] <``y7> indus: "bash: kill: wine: arguments must be process or job IDs"
[08:26] <Slart> CapaH: pkill uses a regex.. kill uses pID
[08:26] <hateball> ``y7: "wineserver -k" will kill *everything* running in Wine
[08:26] <Slart> CapaH: man pkill and man kill will tell you more
[08:27] <indus> ``y7: do it from system monitor :)
[08:27] <``y7> that did it, ty hateball
[08:27] <``y7> indus, too late, but thx for the help sir ;)
[08:27] <Stupendoussteve> CapaH: essentially, to use pkill you can use the process name
[08:27] <indus> too late?
[08:27] <Stupendoussteve> CapaH: And kill uses the pid
[08:27] <Lucky^> Slart ::: i wrote glxgear and the result 700-1200 frames in 5.0 second = 100 - 250 FPS, that good or bad?
[08:27] <indus> sir ! hihihihi
[08:27] <CapaH> (Yep sure enough, live disk was corrupt.. ugh)
[08:28] <infidel2s> does ubuntu's gnome run in 'x window' or something else?
[08:28] <Stupendoussteve> CapaH: It happens, make sure the ISO md5 hash matches before reburning it
[08:28] <Slart> Lucky^: glxgears isn't a benchmark.. I get a lot more than that using my nvidia card though
[08:28] <zetheroo> how do I install a .run package
[08:28] <Stupendoussteve> infidel2s: In the X server, yes
[08:28] <Slart> infidel2s: yes.. gnome uses X
[08:28] <indus> zetheroo: in terminal sh <filename> will install it
[08:28] <L3dPlatedLinux> m player wouldnt wor something with the audio codec
[08:29] <zetheroo> ﻿indus: ok thanks
[08:29] <Slart> L3dPlatedLinux: can you play it in vlc?
[08:29] <tjoco> does anyone use dd-wrt?
[08:29] <Stupendoussteve> !offtopic | tjoco
[08:29] <Lucky^> slart :: oh
[08:29] <brennus> hey so in GIMP, is there a way, once you already have a file open, to change the rulers from pixels to inches?
[08:29] <L3dPlatedLinux> idk dont have that installed but movie player works fine
[08:30] <Lucky^> slart :: last time i got more than that, about more 1k
[08:30] <CapaH> I am on the ubuntu download site, but I do not see anything regarding the md5 checksum of 9.04 64bit -- anyone here know where to find tht?
[08:30] <Slart> brennus: document settings? there is a setting somewhere
[08:30] <CapaH> *that
[08:30] <tjoco> its off topic if im using dd-wrt on ubuntu?
[08:30] <Slart> !checksum
[08:30] <Slart> !md5
[08:30] <CapaH> thank you
[08:30] <indus> tjoco: no it isnt someone jumped the gun
[08:30] <Stupendoussteve> tjoco: How are you using dd-wrt on ubuntu? dd-wrt runs on routers as the OS
[08:31] <indus> nvm
[08:31] <Slart> CapaH: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes
[08:31] <Slart> CapaH: it buried deep inside that verify iso link =)
[08:31] <tjoco> yes..the router is on a computer using ubuntu
[08:31] <CapaH> good deal - the checksum matches, so I guess the cd was bad
[08:32] <daglees> Hello, is there a command to refresh the main menus?
[08:32] <Stupendoussteve> tjoco: Dual boot?
[08:32] <daglees> I installed some apps that have entries but don't show
[08:32] <tjoco> dual boot?
[08:33] <tjoco> i have dd-wrt on my router, my router is on my ubuntu desktop
[08:33] <Stupendoussteve> tjoco: Connected to it?
[08:33] <tjoco> yeah
[08:34] <Stupendoussteve> tjoco: Then it is not on the Ubuntu box, except maybe physically on top of the case :P What is the issue?
[08:34] <joerg> test...
[08:34] <Stupendoussteve> joerg: Good day
[08:34] <joerg> for you, too, stupendoussteve. :-)
[08:34] <natschil> why does a usb startub disk need to be vfat?
[08:35] <Stupendoussteve> natschil: I would imagine the BIOS only reads vfat
[08:35] <losher> natschil: because windows got there first....
[08:35] <gangs20003> can anyone tell me how to go back to default ubuntu settings?
[08:37] <gangs20003> ??
[08:37] <gangs20003> anyone?
[08:37] <Slart> gangs20003: create a new user?
[08:38] <gangs20003> and what about the old one?
[08:38] <gangs20003> delete it?
[08:38] <Gustavo> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg goes directly into some "frame buffer" option, and doesn't automatically detect my video card. Any suggestions?
[08:38] <unitxt> Is there still an issue with Ubuntu 9.04 and the 'ATI Technologies Inc RC410 [Radeon Xpress 200M]' video adapter? The problem may be with the fglrx device driver, is that right?
[08:38] <Slart> gangs20003: if you want to, yes
[08:39] <gangs20003> okay ill try thanks,it will take ALL settings back to defaults??
[08:39] <Slart> gangs20003: I would wait a while in case you need something..ie bookmarks or such
[08:39] <gangs20003> naa
[08:39] <Slart> gangs20003: just the user settings.. system settings will still be the same..
[08:39] <losher> gangs20003: using gnome? http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/
[08:39] <gangs20003> yeah
[08:40] <losher> gangs20003: first hit in google. Lose 10 points....
[08:40] <Slart> L3dPlatedLinux: I can't seem to find a good tool to list what codecs a flv file uses.. =(.. there are tools for avi's, mkv's, mpg's etc.. but they don't work on flv's
[08:41] <sfire> Slart, I used avidmux
[08:41] <sfire> worked perfect
[08:41] <losher> Slart: that's because flv is closed & proprietary....
[08:41] <Slart> sfire: mm.. but it doesn't for the files L3dPlatedLinux want to work with
[08:41] <Gustavo> losher, how do third party encoders work, then?
[08:42] <Slart> losher: yes, I know.. spawn of the horned one and so on..
[08:42] <losher> Gustavo: they have licensed the technology from Adobe...
[08:42] <Slart> sfire: it works for the two files I tried too
[08:42] <dungit82> dfsd
[08:43] <sfire> dungit82, dfsd to you too
[08:43] <tjoco> well ill just throw this out there does anyone know how to clear the dhcp client list on dd-wrt?
[08:43] <Stupendoussteve> tjoco: rebooting the router will do it, I don't remember if there is another way (switched to tomato a long time ago)
[08:43] <sfire> tjoco, reset the unit ?
[08:44] <gangs20003> losher: could you explain this?-If you don’t have access to your graphical (GUI) desktop to delete these folders in Nautilus or you’re stuck at the login screen, drop to a terminal by hitting CTRL + ALT + F1, login to your account, and run this command:
[08:44] <gangs20003>     rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity
[08:44] <gangs20003> Get back to your GUI desktop by hitting CTRL + ALT + F7.
[08:44] <gangs20003> Login and VOILÀ! Just like the first time you ever logged into your Gnome desktop.-does this mean i do it from the login screen?
[08:44] <tjoco> well that would reset everything right? preferably just the client list
[08:44] <FloodBot2> gangs20003: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:45] <Slart> gangs20003: when you press ctrl+alt+f1 you get a tty.. a "native" terminal
[08:45] <Slart> gangs20003: and to get back you press alt+f7.. no need for the ctrl key that time
[08:45] <hh666> is there any effective way to use linux without being labeled as a geek?
[08:46] <gangs20003> how can i log in to my acc from the nattive terminal?
[08:46] <Slart> gangs20003: you'll get a text login prompt
[08:46] <gangs20003> okay great
[08:46] <unitxt> Slart: is that the same thing as 'screen'? I am just curious.
[08:46] <gangs20003> thanks
[08:46] <Slart> unitxt: nope.. screen is an app you run in a terminal
[08:46] <unitxt> k, gotcha. thanks.
[08:46] <crawler> hh666: sure you can use your live cd's as beer coasters
[08:47] <Slart> unitxt: it's.. well.. it's a tool.. you can run several programs at the same time and switch between the text output windows.. and much much more
[08:47] <Slart> unitxt: it's a very usefule program.. but very hard to explain
[08:48] <Slart> hh666: if you just use a shiny background.. preferably an animated one.. and lots of bling bling, people will go .. "ooh.. shiny".. and instantly forget that you are a geek..
[08:48] <sfire> so if anyone in here is a software raid wizard ... I had my server go down and it won't boot back up.  RAID1 using the array to boot off from.  I'm having the datacenter change the boot order... should that alone fix it?
[08:49] <sfire> the machine is booting directly off the array with no separate /boot partitions or anything
[08:49] <sigmab3ta> hi everyone, i decided to use 50GB of free space on my drive to install fedora 11. i left my 50GB ubuntu / partition and my 800GB ubuntu /home intact, and wanted to use the /home in fedora. but the fedora installation didnt set up the bootloader right and now i can't boot into ubuntu. can anyone help?
[08:49] <Slart> sfire: can you do that? I thought you needed a "normal" boot partition?
[08:49] <sigmab3ta> i just want to get ubuntu bootable again, i can sacrifice fedora if need be
[08:49] <sfire> Slart, yep.. that is how I had it setup and it worked perfect
[08:50] <gangs20003> hh666: or the beercoasters
[08:50] <Stupendoussteve> unitxt: Here is an example of screen running three programs in one console window http://tinyurl.com/mt9z2z
[08:50] <sfire> until this failure .. hehehe
[08:50] <sigmab3ta> i'd really like to not have to reinstlal ubuntu but since /home is separate that is an option
[08:50] <Slart> sigmab3ta: boot from a live cd and reinstall grub
[08:50] <sfire> Slart, I'm 1500 miles away from it
[08:50] <Stupendoussteve> unitxt: You don't have to have them split either, can be full screen for each one and you switch between them
[08:50] <Slart> sigmab3ta: no need to reinstall the whole thing.. just reinstalling grub will probably fix it
[08:50] <sigmab3ta> Slart: a little more description? also does it need to be an ubuntu livecd, i'm in a linux environment right now
[08:50] <Slart> !grub | sigmab3ta
[08:51] <sigmab3ta> Slart:  thank you
[08:51] <Slart> sigmab3ta: I'm not sure if it *has* to be an ubuntu live cd.. I don't think so
[08:51] <Slart> sigmab3ta: I would try the thing described in "Lost Grub after installing windows"
[08:51] <losher> sigmab3ta: fedora boots ok, though? Or nothing boots?
[08:52] <sigmab3ta> losher: im in fedora right now
[08:52] <Get_Sum> my mic doesn't work and I have no idea how to set it up
[08:52] <sigmab3ta> Slart: neither of those links have a section by that name
[08:52] <Slart> sfire: hmm.. well.. you learn something new every day.. I've only used software raid once.. on a toy server running debian at the time.. so I can't really help you
[08:52] <sfire> Get_Sum, un-mute it.. enable the mic inputs
[08:52] <Slart> sigmab3ta: " Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See
[08:52] <Get_Sum> where do i do that
[08:52] <Slart>                 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub"
[08:53] <sfire> Slart, the pings quit failing but I'm not getting them back.. I'm hoping that its busy checking the array or fsck
[08:53] <unitxt> Stupendoussteve: nice screenshot. :) I didn't realize you could split up the screen like that. I am reading 'man screen' atm.
[08:53] <losher> sigmab3ta: in theory then, all you need to do is add a clause to the fedora menu.lst which will allow you to choose to boot into ubuntu
[08:53] <unitxt> Slart: I agree, useful but tough to explain.
[08:53] <sigmab3ta> losher: i tried, but what i thought made sense resultd in errors like "error 15: file not found"
[08:54] <sigmab3ta> my ubuntu grub/menu.lst is still intact so i put the ubuntu entry from that into my fedora one. no dice
[08:54] <inertial> is there any good spectrum analysis software for ubuntu?
[08:54] <losher> sigmab3ta: I'm not at all sure if the fedora grub syntax is the same as the ubuntu syntax. You might wanna ask on the fedora channel
[08:54] <Slart> sfire: oh.. that's annoying.. I get nervous when my headless server doesn't come up instantly after a reboot.. do I wait 10 minutes to let it check the discs? or is it dead? .. I wish I could have two servers.. hooked up to each others keyboard inputs and screen outputs.. so you could see what they were up to..
[08:55] <sigmab3ta> losher: grub should be the same anywhere shouldnt it
[08:55] <Slart> inertial: there's scilab.. and the normal fft libraries for python and such
[08:56] <sfire> Slart, been over an hour.. the pings were coming back with an error.. all of a sudden that error stopped and now I get no replies
[08:56] <zebulon_> hmm, m disk access light is on all the time, but no disk activity is occurring
[08:56] <Jyxt> so i just installed xubuntu 9.04...how do i get it to show a splash image with loading bar during boot instead of the text its showing now
[08:56] <inertial> Slart: nice thanks, i'll look at scilab
[08:56] <Jyxt> ie like "checking filesystems" [OK] those kind of messages
[08:56] <losher> sigmab3ta: no guarantee of that. Might be different versions of grub, for example. Or (more likely) you got a parameter wrong. If you added/changed any disk partitions, the uuids and/or disk numbering may have changed...
[08:57] <Slart> Jyxt: I thought it did that by default.. hmm. let me check.. perhaps I installed something special
[08:57] <sigmab3ta> losher: i did add some extended partitions but they are sda5 and sda6, sda1-3 shouldstill be intact
[08:57] <Jyxt> slart i thought so too...does it on another xubuntu install...this one is the amd64 version might that have something to do with it?
[08:58] <Jyxt> but this one shows me a brief xubuntu splash image...then the text message during boot...then the xubuntu login screen
[08:58] <Slart> !info startupmanager | Jyxt, install this
[08:58] <Jyxt> slart ill try it thanks
[08:58] <losher> sigmab3ta: I would think so. But clearly something is wrong with our assumptions, or it would 'just work'....
[08:58] <Slart> Jyxt: there are checkboxes for different options..
[08:59] <crawler> inertial: have you tried audacity?
[08:59] <sigmab3ta> slart, losher, from running these instructions it seems to me that fedora wiped grub out entirely from my sda1 partition; the command setup (hd0) does nothing but complain that /boot/grub/stage1 and /grub/stage1 dont exist
[08:59] <Stupendoussteve> sigmab3ta: Did you set a root first?
[08:59] <Stupendoussteve> sigmab3ta: root (hd0,1) for example
[08:59] <sigmab3ta> root(hd0,0)
[09:00] <sigmab3ta> for sda1
[09:00] <Stupendoussteve> Not good
[09:00] <losher> sigmab3ta: ok, so fsck /dev/sda1 and them mount it to /mnt & lets look in /mnt/boot/grub....
[09:00] <sigmab3ta> Stupendoussteve: im gonna have to reinstall ubuntu aren't i
[09:01] <inertial> crawler: that is also an option, thanks
[09:01] <inertial> gtg
[09:01] <sigmab3ta> losher: what am i looking for in here
[09:01] <sigmab3ta> there is a stage1 actually
[09:01] <kholerabbi> is there an onscreen keyboard I can use (in jaunty)?
[09:01] <xtknight> anyone else have trouble with portions of windows turning black or not redrawing?
[09:02] <xtknight> sometimes black with red artifacts on the sides like corrupted vram.... i dont use compiz
[09:02] <zebulon_> very occasionally i have redraw issues
[09:02] <xtknight> my bro has the problem and a completely different video vendor
[09:02] <xtknight> he said it never used to happen on older Ubuntus and the same goes for me
[09:02] <sigmab3ta> as an aside, find /grub/stage1 reports only hd(0,4)... which should be sda5, which is /boot for fedora
[09:03] <losher> sigmab3ta: that's good. that means fedora didn't wipe it. What does find /boot/grub/stage1 say?
[09:03] <sigmab3ta> losher: nothing
[09:03] <xtknight> zebulon_, are they of the same nature that i'm talking about (black portions)?
[09:04] <sigmab3ta> losher: error 15 file not found
[09:04] <zebulon_> no, just corrupted garbled stuff, like colorful snowcrash
[09:04] <losher> sigmab3ta: what is in /boot/grub/device.map ?
[09:04] <xtknight> i get that during bootup sometimes but not otherwise
[09:04] <zebulon_> i'm using antique intel integrated graphics
[09:04] <zebulon_> gm 915
[09:05] <crawler> xtknight: i have similar issues you are describing using jaunty that i did not get using intrepid
[09:05] <xtknight> ya ive seen more problems with the intels than any other
[09:05] <xtknight> crawler, guess it might have to do with a new X server
[09:05] <sigmab3ta> (hd0)	/dev/sda  (hd1)	/dev/sdb
[09:06] <sigmab3ta> losher:  on two lines
[09:06] <xtknight> it's hard to reproduce
[09:06] <crawler> xtknight: possibly..i would test an 8.10 live cd.  and yes, i'm using intel too
[09:06] <xtknight> crawler, i'm on nvidia actually
[09:06] <losher> sigmab3ta: looks good, please wait
[09:07] <konza_> does anyone know how to install gtk......... pls help
[09:07] <xtknight> konza_, you have gtk installed.  do you mean the gtk development headers? are you compiling something?
[09:07] <gangs20003> thats it im reinstalling
[09:08] <zebulon_> same way you install anything, with synaptic package manager
[09:08] <hh666> Hello
[09:08] <hh666> Don't go that many of you are participating in discussion
 sudo apt-get install gtk*
[09:08] <dittykong> sudo aptitude install gnome-core-devel build-essential
[09:09] <worraps72> new install 9.04 server 64... 3ware Raid 5 on 4 - 1TB drives... Why does the install see 2 physical drives when the raid controller is set at single 2.7 TB drive.  For that matter during install the 2 drives show up as 2.2TB and 800GB respectively as available space which is more than the Raid controller reports (2.7 TB)??
[09:09] <konza_> does anyone know how to install gtk......... pls help
[09:09] <xtknight> konza_, follow dittykong's instructions
[09:09] <xtknight> worraps72, is the card listed as supported in linux?
was it once win?
[09:10] <worraps72> no... new machine out of box... ServersDirect machine... said it was supported
sounds like a hiden partition
[09:11] <sigmab3ta> is there a way to trick the ubuntu livecd installer into just installing the bootloader?
[09:11] <xtknight> worraps72, are you sure both partitions are being reported from the RAID controller?  a dmesg might be helpful
[09:11] <gangs20003> okay i googled reinstalling ubuntu but it only states help with the live cd, i have a bootable usb drive
[09:11] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, you can use the grub-install command
[09:11] <sigmab3ta> whats that
[09:12] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, so you just messed up grub and want to reinstall it i assume?
[09:12] <worraps72> seems hung on format of LVM... been 25 minutes of no movement?
[09:12] <ShazbotMcNasty> Hello - I gave a friend a ubuntu 8.10 install disk - he's using an old mac, but the computer isn't recognizing the disk ass bootable - any ideas?
[09:12] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: tried to intsall fedora next to ubuntu, now can't boot into ubuntu
[09:12] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: dont really care about fedora anymore, just need ubuntu back
[09:12] <gangs20003> do i just install it again the same way i did before?will it overwrite the ubuntu os currently installed??
[09:12] <zebulon_> shazbot, is he mac a powerpc?
[09:12] <konza_> dittykong,  couldn't find package
[09:12] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, ok.. you should have both use the same /boot partition next time but to get ubuntu back first boot into the livecd
[09:13] <konza_> xtknight,  couldn't find package
[09:13] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: does it have to be a livecd specifically, im in a fedora environment right now
[09:13] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, actually you dont need to
[09:13] <sigmab3ta> k
[09:13] <gangs20003> i have a bootable usb drive
[09:13] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, you should edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file.
[09:13] <losher> sigmab3ta: do you have a separate boot partition?
[09:13] <xtknight> gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst &
[09:13] <sigmab3ta> losher: as of now i do
[09:14] <sigmab3ta> sigmab3ta: i should edit my fedora /boot/grub/menu.lst?
[09:14] <sigmab3ta> err
[09:14] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, yes
[09:14] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: i should edit my fedora...yeah there ya go
[09:14] <losher> sigmab3ta: so you're saying the ubuntu install didn't have a separate boot partition, but the fedora one does?
[09:14] <dittykong> You can try this gtk link http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Aurora+Gtk+Engine?content=56438
[09:14] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, so fedora is on the mbr now?
[09:14] <WIGGMPk> when i open jockey-gtk, why does it just show "nvidia" and not the other NON-proprietary packages available?
[09:14] <xtknight> WIGGMPk, do you have any non-nvidia video cards?
[09:14] <bullgard4> Is there a program similar to knetload for GNOME?
[09:14] <sigmab3ta> losher: correct, ubuntu doesnt seem to care, fedora forces you to have an ext3 /boot
[09:14] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, fedora' grub and boot partition is associated with the mbr, rather
[09:14] <WIGGMPk> xtknight: no
[09:15] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: seems like it
[09:15] <dittykong> or sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
[09:15] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, it shows fedora what grub shows up?
[09:15] <xtknight> when grub*
[09:15] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: yeah. oddly enough my windows 7 partition was picked up and works fine
[09:15] <gangs20003> guys? should i just install ubuntu the way i did before? will it then overwrite the curretly installed ubuntu? i used a bootable usb drive!
[09:15] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, mount your ubuntu partition, and steal the entries from its /boot/menu.lst and stick them in fedora's menu.lst
[09:15] <WIGGMPk> xtknight: on a fresh install of Jaunty, it will show "nvidia-glx-180" and a few other versions.. but now it just shows the proprietary nvidia package
[09:15] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: i did that
[09:16] <xtknight>  sigmab3ta stick them before the AUTOMAGIC kernels list
[09:16] <sigmab3ta> a thought occured to me
[09:16] <konza_> dittykong,  please include my name when replying otherwise it is difficult to find out
[09:16] <sigmab3ta> fedora says very specifically that the boot partition can't be ext4
[09:16] <xtknight> WIGGMPk, hmm well you have to uninstall the nvidia 180 for others to show?
[09:16] <sigmab3ta> my / in ubuntu was ext4
[09:16] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, your boot is ext4?
[09:16] <sigmab3ta> could that have something to do with it
[09:16] <xtknight> i didnt think ubuntu supported ext4 boots either
[09:16] <gangs20003> guys? i need to reinstall ubuntu, should i just install ubuntu the way i did before? will it then overwrite the curretly installed ubuntu? i used a bootable usb drive!
[09:16] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: not right now, fedora doesn't allow you to go on
[09:16] <dittykong> @ Konza, sun in terminal sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
[09:17] <dittykong> *run in terminal
[09:17] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, in this case you will probably have to boot an ubuntu livecd and do an update-grub
[09:17] <gangs20003> ........
[09:17] <losher> sigmab3ta: ext4? No wonder fedora's grub can't find it.
[09:17] <ShazbotMcNasty> I gave a friend a ubuntu 8.10 install disk - he's using an old mac, but the computer isn't recognizing the disk ass bootable - any ideas?
[09:17] <sigmab3ta> losher: yeah that just occured to me
[09:17] <zebulon_> if the old mac is powerpc it won't work with ubuntu for intel
[09:17] <mikubuntu> just got a new (old) laptop toshiba p35 s605, and my friend gave me a dvd movie to play.  but, ubuntu says i am missing 'dvd source' plugin(s) to play this, and performs a search for suitable plugins, and finds NONE.  help! :)
[09:18] <konza_> dittykong,  thanks its working...
[09:18] <losher> sigmab3ta: yeah, no kidding....
[09:18] <erUSUL> !dvd | mikubuntu
[09:18] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: i will reboot into a liveusb, can you give me further intsructions when i do
[09:18] <gangs20003> ........guys? i need to reinstall ubuntu, should i just install ubuntu the way i did before? will it then overwrite the curretly installed ubuntu? i used a bootable usb drive!
[09:18] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, either that or install grub2 which is a pain!  i guess ubuntu has a grub patch
[09:18] <konza_> dittykong, after installing how to start coding......... i am new to this.
[09:18] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, you're sure the ubuntu worked before that?
[09:18] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: like clockwork
[09:19] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, ok yes i can give u further instructions after u are in an ubuntu environment
[09:19] <sigmab3ta> be back in a minute, time me
[09:19] <gangs20003> .............
[09:19] <gangs20003> please help, i need to reinstall ubuntu, should i just install ubuntu the way i did before? will it then overwrite the curretly installed ubuntu? i used a bootable usb drive!
[09:20] <zebulon_> why do you need to reinstall gangs?
[09:20] <gangs20003> nets screwed up
[09:20] <dittykong> at Konza, try this http://smalltalk.gnu.org/blog/joe/absolute-beginners-guide-part-i-gnu-smalltalk-gtk-toplevel-window
[09:20] <zebulon_> and it worked previously?
[09:20] <gangs20003> dont know how i managed that though
[09:20] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: You can code in any text editor
[09:20] <dittykong> at Konza, also try out a gtk launcher http://smalltalk.gnu.org/blog/mrgwen
[09:20] <gangs20003> yes once, i just installed yesterday
[09:21] <dittykong> @ Konza or for programming http://wingtk.sourceforge.net/ishan/glade.html
[09:21] <zebulon_> ok, then reinstalling is probably a safe bet, unless it was a system update that broke it
[09:21] <gangs20003> no i doubt that
[09:21] <dittykong> @Konza, I don't program myself so this is far as my knowledge goes
[09:21] <konza_> Stupendoussteve,  in which extension shoul i save it
[09:21] <zebulon_> backup any files you care about =)
[09:21] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: What language are you coding in?
[09:22] <gangs20003> i dont have any yet so, should i just install ubuntu the way i did before? will it then overwrite the curretly installed ubuntu? i used a bootable usb drive!
[09:22] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: give me anothre few minutes, i messed up theliveusb setup lol
[09:22] <xtknight> ok
[09:22] <BlueFire> hey folks
[09:22] <zebulon_> if you wipe the partition it will definitely overwrite
[09:22] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: You can format your drive in the installer and install over it, yes
[09:22] <gangs20003> ????
[09:22] <mikubuntu> erUSUL: thanks, i don't know why, but earlier when i was just installing ubuntu on this machine, it wouldn't let me install restricted extras cause it said it intrfered or something with some other packages; but, now its installing from that page you gave me... hopefully will work for me, gracias
[09:22] <dsdeiz> openbox is a stacking wm right?
[09:23] <erUSUL> mikubuntu: de nada
[09:23] <BlueFire> I would need to upgrade the CGI perl module in Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, sidestepping the package manager. Is that a bad idea?
[09:23] <dittykong> @dsdeiz Yes it is
[09:23] <cypha> exit
[09:23] <Newbuntu> Does anyone know if Ubuntu has changed there packet transfer protocols with the new release?
[09:23] <gangs20003> how do i format my drive in the installer?i had chosen to install xp and ubuntu side by side, will formatting not delete my data in xp?
[09:23] <dsdeiz> great, thanks
[09:23] <xtknight> Newbuntu, what do you mean?
[09:23] <konza_> i would like to code in C
[09:23] <WIGGMPk1> (got disconnected) when I open jockey-gtk it only shows "nvidia" why doesnt it show the older versions
[09:23] <zebulon_> you have to make sure you choose the correct partition. if you don't you might wipe xp by accient
[09:24] <Stupendoussteve> gangs20003: You can choose the partitions you put Ubuntu on, put it on the old Ubuntu one and don't touch the Windows one
[09:24] <ShazbotMcNasty> I gave a friend a ubuntu 8.10 install disk - he's using an old mac, but the computer isn't recognizing the disk ass bootable - any ideas?
[09:24] <Newbuntu> My downloads seem significantly slower with the new release im wondering if its due too protocol changes
[09:24] <crawler> bullgard4: try the netspeed applet
[09:24] <gangs20003> ok,now im scared but ill do it anyhow
[09:24] <Stupendoussteve> ShazbotMcNasty: PowerPC uses different install media, can't use a normal install disc
[09:24] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: the more i think about it the more i realize fedora just isnt playing nice with my ext4 partition
[09:25] <losher> gangs20003: Make sure you know which device is your usb partition so you can tell it where to install...
[09:25] <Stupendoussteve> ShazbotMcNasty: See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCDownloads
[09:25] <konza_> Stupendoussteve, i would like to code in C
[09:25] <zebulon_> thank you steve, he might read yours, i've already answered him twice
[09:25] <gangs20003> i just sorta clicked yes to everything before, i didnt tought the dafault partitions so it should write over it this time aswell right?
[09:25] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: C code files end with the .c extension, generally
[09:25] <onexused> Ubuntu-9.04, gnome.  How do I get the volume keys on my laptop's keyboard to control PCM instead of Master?
[09:25] <konza_> Stupendoussteve,  in which all languages can i code?
[09:25] <gangs20003> *didnt touch
[09:26] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: Most languages
[09:26] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, right
[09:26] <gangs20003> i just sorta clicked yes to everything before, i didnt touch the default partitions so it should write over it this time aswell right?
[09:26] <losher> gangs20003: I wouldn;t rely on that. Find out the device name of your usb drive *before* you start installing. Also find out the names of your XP partitions. Write them on a piece of paper, to avoid an accident
[09:27] <ShazbotMcNasty> thank you Stupendoussteve
[09:27] <gangs20003> okay
[09:27] <xtknight> WIGGMPk, hmm well you have to uninstall the nvidia 180 for others to show?
[09:27] <zebulon_> gangs, if you want to be extra sure and if you have an external drive large enough, the safest thing to do is to back up your windows partition.  it's a good idea to do anyway
[09:27] <konza_> Stupendoussteve,    how to compile it
[09:27] <Newbuntu> xtknight, My downloads seem significantly slower with the new release I'm wondering if its due too protocol changes
[09:27] <xtknight> Newbuntu, hmmm i dont think so
[09:27] <xtknight> mine are as fast
[09:28] <gangs20003> i dont boot from the usb anymore btw i have installed ubuntu on my comp,you guys knew that right?
[09:28] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: Install the build-essential package, then a real easy way is to use make. If the file is, for example test.c, you can write "make test" in the terminal, and it will build it
[09:28] <xtknight> Stupendoussteve, really?  i thought you had to do gcc -o test test.c
[09:28] <Newbuntu> xtknight haha well i realy cant be bothered with the hassle of dual booting xp and to versions of Ubuntu
[09:28] <Stupendoussteve> No
[09:28] <Stupendoussteve> Make is smart enough for single files
[09:29] <Newbuntu> two*
[09:29] <xtknight> Newbuntu, so your downloads are faster in xp?
[09:29] <gangs20003> i dont boot from the usb anymore btw i have installed ubuntu on my comp,you guys DID know that right?
[09:29] <Stupendoussteve> xtknight: It pretty much runs that line though
[09:29] <xtknight> oh
[09:29] <losher> gangs20003: please run 'sudo fdisk -l' and pastebin the output
[09:29] <Newbuntu> xtknight no slightly slower but with the previous release of Ubuntu they were much faster
[09:30] <xtknight> Newbuntu, it does depend on the server ur downloading from
[09:30] <onexused> Ubuntu-9.04, gnome.  How do I get the volume keys on my laptop's keyboard to control PCM instead of Master?
[09:30] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: i am in an ubuntu liveusb now
[09:31] <losher> gangs20003: sudo fdisk -l will list all your disks & partitions
[09:31] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, ok chroot to your ubuntu
[09:31] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: i'm sorry, i dont know what that means
[09:31] <konza_> Stupendoussteve,  but i cant install build install package.. there is some error.... the command is sudo apt-get install gnome-core-devel build install rite?
[09:31] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, ok mount your ubuntu first.  do you know what /dev/sdx node it is?
[09:31] <gangs20003> oh ok but im talking to you from xp now so i gota go away and check
[09:31] <Newbuntu> xtknight ya but even update manager is only getting 15kbs when it used to get 500+
[09:31] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: No, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[09:31] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: /dev/sda is /
[09:32] <sigmab3ta> err
[09:32] <sigmab3ta> /dev/sda1
[09:32] <xtknight> Newbuntu, weird... well mine sometimes slows down as well during peak times
[09:32] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: It shouldn't pull in too much more than you already had, but a few things
[09:32] <civixier> How do I start a terminal from alt+F2?
[09:32] <grawity> civixier: gnome-terminal
[09:32] <xtknight> Newbuntu, check dmesg for any ethernet messages.  do you use wireless?
[09:32] <civixier> thanks :D
[09:32] <grawity> (if you use Gnome, of course)
[09:32] <iceroot> is gnome (xorg) using more cpu on 9.04 then on 8.04? my eeepc (intel vga) is using much more cpu-usage on xorg then before with 8.04. compiz is disabled
[09:32] <civixier> i do :)
[09:32] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, ok "sudo mkdir -p /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1"
[09:32] <xtknight> sorry
[09:32] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, ok "sudo mkdir -p /mnt/sda1"
[09:32] <Newbuntu> xtknight ah well if i have the time ill downgrade and see if there is a change thanks anyway
[09:32] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, then "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1"
[09:33] <xtknight> Newbuntu, yup
[09:33] <xtknight> Newbuntu, and u can just try an older livecd instead of downgrading
[09:33] <sigmab3ta> that's to mount my old / to /mnt/sda1 right?
[09:33] <Newbuntu> xtknight oh sorry ya missed your last question I am wireless
[09:33] <xtknight> Newbuntu, ohhh.. wireless drivers are fast paced in updates.  that's probably the problem
[09:34] <zebulon_> what wireless chipset do you use Newbuntu?
[09:34] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, right
[09:34] <CapaH> After three times in a row of burning the cd and finding errors on it when doing the integrity check.. I decided to take no chances (went to the store got new cds, used a different computer to burn it, downloaded from a different mirror) -- finally! it worked!
[09:34] <Stupendoussteve> Congrats :D
[09:34] <zebulon_> congrats Cap. i hate burning coasters
[09:34] <Stupendoussteve> Unfortunate it took so much work
[09:35] <CapaH> heh its 4:30 am I started at like 11 pm
[09:35] <Stupendoussteve> If I had known you were having such trouble I would have directed you to try the mini cd
[09:35] <Newbuntu> zebulon, Give me a second or two to just check that one =D
[09:35] <Stupendoussteve> It's like 17mb and then loads everything else from the net
[09:35] <CapaH> thats actually a great idea - I should have thought of that
[09:35] <xtknight> CapaH, Stupendoussteve , or bittorrent
[09:35] <xtknight> i think it does checksums on everything
[09:35] <Stupendoussteve> Or bittorrent, yeah
[09:35] <xtknight> if ur net is that unreliable i would check into it
[09:36] <CapaH> well the important thing is - it looks like it finally worked
[09:36] <xtknight> i had an ethernet driver that really messed up every one of my downloads
[09:36] <onexused> Ubuntu-9.04, gnome.  How do I get the volume keys on my laptop's keyboard to control PCM instead of Master?
[09:36] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, sudo chroot /mnt/sda1
[09:37] <xtknight> onexused, i think you right click on the volume control or do preferences->sound default mixer track
[09:37] <CapaH> Question, When I installed Ubuntu 32 bit on this machine (now upgrading to 64 bit) - I used the whole harddrive as my partition, I do not want to lose stuff in my home directory --- how can I do that? (I am in the live-cd gui now
[09:37] <Newbuntu> zebulon its the intel 855GM 802.11b
[09:37] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: done
[09:37] <zebulon_> got someplace to copy your home directory to?
[09:37] <Stupendoussteve> CapaH: I suggest backing up your home directory
[09:37] <xtknight> Newbuntu, do you know what wireless driver you use?  i think iwl is the one with problems i cant remember
[09:37] <CapaH> I already did - for the most part
[09:37] <xtknight> there's iwl3945 and then some other older one
[09:37] <xtknight> that actually worked better
[09:38] <CapaH> but ideally I do not want to lose all that - is there a way to resize the partition?
[09:38] <onexused> xtknight: preferences > sound's default mixer track worked for me.  Thanks
[09:38] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, sudo grub-install hd0
[09:38] <CapaH> (meaning, I do not want to be forced to restore from a backup :)
[09:38] <adraine> help! someone?
[09:38] <Stupendoussteve> CapaH: gparted can resize and move most partitions
[09:38] <Stupendoussteve> CapaH: If it's like ext3 then yes, it will take a while though
[09:38] <Newbuntu> xtknight how do i check the drivers in Ubuntu?
[09:38] <mikubuntu> erUSUL: do you know if i have to restart after installing restricted extras?  there's not an icon saying that i do.
[09:38] <sigmab3ta> sudo: unable to resolve host ubuntu // /dev/sda1: Not found or not a block device.
[09:38] <xtknight> Newbuntu, sudo lshw -class network
[09:38] <Stupendoussteve> mike126_: You shouldn't need to
[09:39] <xtknight> configuration.....driver =
[09:39] <erUSUL> mikubuntu: no you do not need to. for dvd you will need libdvdcss2 from medibuntu
[09:39] <iceroot> mikubuntu: you only have to reboot for a kernel-update
[09:39] <erUSUL> !medibuntu
[09:39] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, hmm well type "exit" to get out of chroot lets try this instead
[09:39] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, sudo grub-install --root-directory /mnt/sda1 hd0
[09:40] <dandre> hello
[09:40] <zebulon_> hi dandre
[09:40] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: doesn't seem like that's the proper form of that argument
[09:41] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, hmmm    sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/sda1 hd0
[09:41] <xtknight> directory=..
[09:41] <dandre> I am trying to setup apache2 to use userdir on my 9.04 but I have a permission denied when I access to http://localhost/~user
[09:41] <sigmab3ta> yeah that was it
[09:41] <Newbuntu> xtknight   git-1.2.2
[09:41] <xtknight> Newbuntu,  iwlwifi has issues but ipw is the one that works better i think...
[09:41] <xtknight> Newbuntu, it should say something other than this under driver=??
[09:41] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: no error reported.
[09:41] <zebulon_> dandre, you need to change permissions on the directoty
[09:41] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, okay you should be set
[09:41] <sigmab3ta> installation finished
[09:41] <zebulon_> using chmod
[09:42] <dandre> it is set to 777
[09:42] <sigmab3ta> xtknight: time to reboot and give it a shot then?
[09:42] <iceroot> dandre: you dont have to change permission
[09:42] <xtknight> dandre, /var/www/~user exists?
[09:42] <xtknight> sigger_, ya
[09:42] <xtknight> sigmab3ta, ya
[09:42] <sigmab3ta> lol
[09:42] <xtknight> :/
[09:42] <sigmab3ta> okay hopefully brb in a min
[09:42] <FloodBot2> xtknight: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:42] <iceroot> dandre: you are using mod_userdir and place your file in ~/public_html?
[09:42] <Newbuntu> xtknight ya im ipw2100
[09:42] <dandre> iceroot: yes
[09:42] <iceroot> dandre: you have restart apache after enabling mod_userdir?
[09:43] <zebulon_> ooh, good question
[09:43] <dandre> I have done it
[09:43] <mikubuntu> erUSUL: what's that shortcut to insert copied text into the terminal?
[09:43] <xtknight> Newbuntu, oh ok well you can find a list of changes between intrepid and jaunty for that driver if you would like...or you can check the dmesg for possible issues like reassociating with AP,etc...
[09:43] <iceroot> dandre: post the error from /var/log/apache2/error.log
[09:43] <erUSUL> mikubuntu: middle click or crtl + w
[09:43] <iceroot> !pastebin | dandre
[09:43] <CapaH> "Shrink /dev/sda1 from 587.51 GB to 66.97 GB. This may take a while" -- anyone know roughly how long a "while" ? :)
[09:44] <xtknight> CapaH, ~3 hours?
[09:44] <konza_> dandre, make a directoy in ur local host  and give the permission 755
[09:44] <konza_> dandre, to which drectory did u give the 777 permsn
[09:44] <xtknight> CapaH, depends on how much of your data is beyond the start cylinders..
[09:44] <mikubuntu> erUSUL: nope, those two don't work.  i seem to remember another one, but i can't spit it out
[09:44] <Newbuntu> xtknight cheers ill have a look at dmesg and if that dosen't come up with anything ill traul over driver notes =D
[09:44] <xtknight> Newbuntu, yeah
[09:44] <CapaH> 32 gigs used
[09:44] <xtknight> Newbuntu, and look for bug reports too
[09:44] <s1gmab3ta> xtknight: good show old man, that did the trick
[09:44] <erUSUL> mikubuntu: crtl + y
[09:45] <xtknight> s1gmab3ta,  glad to hear... stay off of ext4 boot partitions they're bad stuff ;)
[09:45] <mikubuntu> nope, i thought it was alt/something
[09:45] <s1gmab3ta> xtknight: i didn't really know it was customary to make separate /boot partitions
[09:45] <xtknight> s1gmab3ta, i do if my root is ext4 just to avoid problems with legacy grubs
[09:46] <s1gmab3ta> xtknight: OH WELL THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN GREAT TO KNOW 2 HOURS AGO
[09:46] <xtknight> and plus, that's the only way to get by when you use md raid
[09:46] <s1gmab3ta> xtknight: :)
[09:46] <xtknight> s1gmab3ta,  at least that's why i do it
[09:46] <dandre> I only have this error:
[09:46] <dandre> http://foswiki.org/System/CompleteDocumentation
[09:46] <s1gmab3ta> xtknight: well i learned a very valuable lesson today
[09:46] <dandre> oups sorry
[09:46] <xtknight> s1gmab3ta,  and i agree completely, i didnt discover it was a good idea till later.. but my bro always raised me on making separate /boot, /, swap...
[09:46] <s1gmab3ta> xtknight: stay the hell away from fedora. :)
[09:46] <ashmew2> hi
[09:47] <s1gmab3ta> well i dont even do swap anymore
[09:47] <xtknight> lol
[09:47] <s1gmab3ta> does any one?
[09:47] <xtknight> uh oh
[09:47] <dandre> [Wed Jun 10 10:45:47 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (13)Permission denied: access to /~daniel.andre denied
[09:47] <zebulon_> i do
[09:47] <xtknight> lesson #2 :P
[09:47] <Stupendoussteve> Anyone who wants to hibernate
[09:47] <s1gmab3ta> swap files are so.... 2007
[09:47] <zebulon_> yeah but i started using linux in 1995
[09:47] <xtknight> well when you have eight gigs of ram or however much, who cares
[09:47] <ashmew2> yeah
[09:47] <iceroot> dandre: you are not using mod_userdir correctly
[09:47] <s1gmab3ta> 4, although i run 32 bit so 3
[09:48] <Stupendoussteve> Again, anyone who wants to hibernate :)
[09:48] <Stupendoussteve> No reason to use swap for the ram anymore
[09:48] <xtknight> create a swapfile on your / then.. mkswap /swapfile ... or something
[09:48] <xtknight> swapon /swapfile
[09:48] <ashmew2> swapoff
[09:48] <s1gmab3ta> Stupendoussteve: 9.04 boots fast enough that hibernation seems kidna redundant
[09:48] <iceroot> dandre: it should say  access to /home/daniel.ande/public_html  also i dont know if i is a good idea to use "." in username
[09:48] <xtknight> oh man i dont even attempt suspend/hiber i have had way too many problems with them
[09:48] <ashmew2> Karmic's guna be awesome..something tells me
[09:48] <Stupendoussteve> If you don't want to close everything it makes sense
[09:49] <Stupendoussteve> or your system to kill all your work if the battery gets to low
[09:49] <iceroot> dandre: mod_userdir is redirecting domain/~user to /home/user/public_html
[09:49] <grawity> iceroot: Dots in usernames should not be bad.
[09:49] <s1gmab3ta> Stupendoussteve: i suppose
[09:49] <tell_000> hello?
[09:49] <nicks007> Hello, How can i mount hard drives automatically during startup ?
[09:49] <xtknight> i also just discovered Xfce is an amazingly fast replacement for gnome, noticeable even on the latest processors.. it's just so much snappier
[09:49] <Stupendoussteve> Yeah it is
[09:50] <xtknight> and multimonitor backgrounds
[09:50] <onexused> nicks007: You can add them in /etc/fstab
[09:50] <s1gmab3ta> xtknight: xfce is quite fast
[09:50] <s1gmab3ta> but you know what i noticed
[09:50] <s1gmab3ta> gnome is fast too if yo ushut off compiz
[09:50] <xtknight> i think xfce is gtk-based as well
[09:50] <zebulon_> xfce is nifty. a couple revs back it had some weird issues with too much ram. blazingly fast with 256mb but slower with 1.2gb. bizarre
[09:50] <onexused> !fstab | nicks007
[09:50] <xtknight> s1gmab3ta, well it's not compiz, for me it's the GTK drawing engines or nautilus or something...the menus seem snappier in xfce (altho i thought it used gtk as well)
[09:50] <iceroot> dandre: look in the mod_userdir conf is there is something like <Directory /home/*/public_html> in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/userdir.conf
[09:51] <Jyxt> slart i think, if your still here thanks that startupmanager worked...problem was the swap wasn't being mounted
[09:51] <dandre> yes there is
[09:51] <s1gmab3ta> my computer is by no means slow with compiz, but wihtout it its still noticably faster
[09:51] <Jyxt> mostly because i dual boot with gentoo and in gentoo swap was encrypted...ubuntu couldnt figure out how to mount it due to that so i set it up to encrypt swap in xubuntu also...problem fixed :)
[09:51] <s1gmab3ta> i think we linux cats are getting a little spoiled with speed
[09:51] <xtknight> selection rectangle on the desktop is fast and the file browser (Thunar) is faster than nautilus
[09:51] <Stupendoussteve> It also lacks some of the functionality
[09:51] <Stupendoussteve> like smb
[09:51] <zebulon_> s1gma, yeah my laptop gets faster with every release
[09:52] <Stupendoussteve> but if you never use it then it's nothing to miss
[09:52] <iceroot> dandre: hm
[09:52] <nicks007> ubottu : let me do it
[09:52] <zebulon_> at this point, who needs new hardware?
[09:52] <Stupendoussteve> or if you're comfortable with doing it manually
[09:52] <xtknight> oh, that sucks
[09:52] <tell_000> I know that tihs ist the ubuntu channel, but I cant fint any windoes channel. I have a problem with creating new adresses: Fatal error: Call to undefined function checkdnsrr() in C:\Programme\vtigercrm5\apache\htdocs\vtigerCRM\tellmatic\include\Functions.inc.php on line 865
[09:52] <dandre> http://paste.ubuntu.com/192343/
[09:52] <Stupendoussteve> tell_000: See ##window
[09:52] <Stupendoussteve> er
[09:52] <Stupendoussteve> ##windows :)
[09:52] <iceroot> teddy_: ##windows
[09:52] <s1gmab3ta> zebulon_: yeah the ironic thing is jaunty runs like crap on my netbook
[09:53] <xtknight> sounds more like #apache to me
[09:53] <zebulon_> really?
[09:53] <s1gmab3ta> horrible intel graphics regressions
[09:53] <zebulon_> ugh
[09:53] <s1gmab3ta> result of the new xorg
[09:53] <s1gmab3ta> eh
[09:53] <s1gmab3ta> its no big
[09:53] <zebulon_> must be new intel graphics, my old intel graphics works fine
[09:53] <xtknight> s1gmab3ta, like the new uxa mode?
[09:53] <iceroot> s1gmab3ta: is it a intel problem? also have much problems with performance here
[09:53] <s1gmab3ta> my netbook is taking a vacay right now anyway, university is over until sept :)
[09:53] <xtknight> i didnt get uxa to work with all two intel adapters i tried
[09:53] <s1gmab3ta> by then i figure karmic will be stable enough to take over
[09:53] <s1gmab3ta> iceroot: lemme give you a link
[09:54] <s1gmab3ta> xtknight: something like that
[09:54] <tell_000> what can I do t fix this problem?
[09:54] <nicks007> thanks i made it
[09:55] <s1gmab3ta> iceroot:
[09:55] <s1gmab3ta> iceroot: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=NzIxMQ
[09:55] <Stupendoussteve> tell_000: Ask about it in ##windows or #apache
[09:55] <iceroot> s1gmab3ta: thx, i will have a look
[09:55] <gangs20003> okay i used sudo fdisk -l and i got this
[09:55] <gangs20003> http://i552.photobucket.com/albums/jj332/gangs20003/strings.png
[09:55] <s1gmab3ta> iceroot:  wait look at this instead http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_904_intel&num=1
[09:56] <gangs20003> now can someone tell me which are the partitions i have to choose?
[09:56] <muse> I am abit confused as to how to get conky working with compiz.. any suggestions?
[09:57] <iceroot> s1gmab3ta: seems like waiting for better drivers is the only chance
[09:57] <s1gmab3ta> gangs20003: although i am not sure how to help your problem, you know you can just paste text into a pastebin right?
[09:57] <s1gmab3ta> iceroot: yeah that's all it is
[09:58] <s1gmab3ta> iceroot: karmic will be better
[09:58] <gangs20003> .....no
[09:58] <iceroot> s1gmab3ta: really really bad. my eeepc is so slow with jaunty.....
[09:58] <zebulon_> gangs, did you really use only a 1GB linux partition?
[09:58] <s1gmab3ta> gangs20003: paste text here http://pastebin.com/ then post the link to show people
[09:58] <gangs20003> is that really bad?
[09:58] <zebulon_> no, it just seems very small
[09:58] <zebulon_> for a modern install
[09:59] <gangs20003> okay then what should i do? you know what i wanted to do right?
[09:59] <zebulon_> you wanted to reinstall over your existing linux to fix the network
[09:59] <onexused> Where would I find the .config file used to build Ubuntu's default kernel?
[09:59] <gangs20003> ya
[09:59] <gangs20003> so now what?
[09:59] <s1gmab3ta> iceroot: just bear with it for a few months. probably by aug or sept they'll have alphas that are usable enough to put on your eeepc
[10:00] <zebulon_> if you're happy with the size, that png you posted says /dev/sda7 is your linux partition
[10:00] <s1gmab3ta> iceroot: the nice thing about netbooks is since they're generally not your main workstation you can afford to be a little risky with them
[10:00] <gangs20003> how large should i make it?
[10:00] <iceroot> s1gmab3ta: befor  wait so long, i will use 8.04. and the eeepc is my main-pc
[10:00] <s1gmab3ta> gangs20003: at the risk of being crass, that's what she said
[10:00] <gangs20003> and(how should i make it large)
[10:00] <onexused> Oh, look, it's /boot/config-whatever.  Never mind : )
[10:01] <pixelfairy> how do you get the keyring to stop asking for a password? id really like to disable it. turning it off in startup items didnt help
[10:01] <zebulon_> depends on how much stuff you want to install.  I feel constrained in 10gb but i installthe kitchen sink
[10:01] <rbo_> hi! i've connected second monitor. do i need to configure Xorg manually or there is any configuration tool for it?
[10:01] <Stupendoussteve> pixelfairy: Set the password to be the same as your login
[10:01] <Stupendoussteve> should do it
[10:01] <gangs20003> i wont have any dataloss will i?
[10:01] <s1gmab3ta> iceroot:  oh. nevermind what i said then, lol. but for what its worth i used jaunty since like late february... had little to no problems of consequence
[10:02] <Gustavo> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg goes directly into some "frame buffer" option, and doesn't automatically detect my video card. Any suggestions?
[10:02] <iceroot> s1gmab3ta: on eeepc?
[10:02] <onexused> rbo_: In gnome, at least, you could try Preferences > Display first
[10:02] <zebulon_> if you only wipe the /dev/sda7 partition you will only lose your linux data
[10:02] <iceroot> s1gmab3ta: or with a intel vga?
[10:02] <s1gmab3ta> iceroot: dell mini 9. they are similar hardware.
[10:02] <s1gmab3ta> iceroot: give moblin 2 a shot when that's released
[10:02] <iceroot> s1gmab3ta: hm, jaunty is much faster, booting and so on but xorg is slow like vista on a eeepc
[10:03] <Stupendoussteve> Jolicloud looks pretty nice too
[10:03] <s1gmab3ta> iceroot: it's in beta right now, and is very unstable from what ive tried
[10:03] <s1gmab3ta> like so unstable i dont even know how they justify calling it a beta
[10:03] <Gustavo> How can I automatically configure my video card?
[10:03] <s1gmab3ta> but oh man when it's stable it is going to be ridiculous
[10:03] <gangs20003> zebulon can i query you?
[10:03] <rbo_> onexused: will see
[10:04] <gangs20003> just help me through this please
[10:04] <s1gmab3ta> moblin 2 boots from bios screen to web browser in - i kid you not - 10 seconds on my mini
[10:04] <zebulon_> you just did gangs. did you have a second query?
[10:04] <iceroot> s1gmab3ta: yeah, i need a stable one like 8.04 but maybe there is a change, not to downgrade, so i can use 9.04
[10:04] <iceroot> s1gmab3ta: jaunty is booting in 16 seconds to x
[10:04] <gangs20003> lol i meant a pm sorry
[10:04] <s1gmab3ta> iceroot: you get a desktop screen almost instantaneously
[10:05] <zebulon_> heh, ok go ahead, and refresh my memory on the command
[10:06] <rbo_> onexused: can't see second display there
[10:06] <s1gmab3ta> well ladies and gents it is 5am here so ive overstayed my welcome
[10:06] <s1gmab3ta> thanks again xtknight
[10:07] <xtknight> s1gmab3ta, yup
[10:07] <onexused> rbo_: It may be that you'll need to configure xorg manually, then - which you'll have to ask someone else about for Ubuntu.  For my laptop, the second display showed up there as soon as I connected it.
[10:07] <CapaH> Is there any way to check on the progress of resize2fs ?
[10:10] <konza_> Stupendoussteve,  i can install build essential   '"couldnt find package"
[10:11] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: build-essential? With the hyphen?
[10:11] <cyberjorge> anyone used Xen and setup virtual servers successfully using ubuntu?
[10:12] <konza_> Stupendoussteve,  sorry i forgot to put the hyphen
[10:12] <anr78> I want to get Subversion 1.6.2 on Ubuntu. Any advice on how? Is there a repository I can add or something?
[10:12] <rbo_> onexused: i know how to do it manually - i have Gentoo at home
[10:12] <konza_> Stupendoussteve,  its already installed
[10:12] <rbo_> onexused: thanx
[10:12] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: Good deal, then you should be good to go
[10:12] <konza_> Stupendoussteve, is there any graphical user interface for gtk
[10:13] <krishmish> hi room
[10:13] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: gtk is the gui, it draws most of what you see
[10:13] <Stupendoussteve> well, it's the toolkit
[10:13] <krishmish> slart: hi
[10:13] <krishmish> slart: are u there?
[10:15] <krishmish> can someone tell me how i can login into a ubuntu machin as a user from a windows box?
[10:15] <juxta> krishmish: on the console? or using a GUI?
[10:15] <krishmish> juxta:  using gui
[10:15] <konza_> can we do drag and drop...... as in qt
[10:16] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: I think glade does that
[10:16] <krishmish> juxta: configured between 2 ubuntu machines
[10:16] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: Yes, look at the glade package, it is a gtk interface builder
[10:16] <juxta> krishmish: you'll need to look into install vnc or one of the similar programs on the ubuntu machine if you want remote desktop access
[10:16] <iceroot> !eeepc
[10:16] <Stupendoussteve> vnc is already on ubuntu
[10:17] <krishmish> juxta: vnc i know
[10:17] <iceroot> irc-chan for eeepc+ubuntu?
[10:17] <krishmish> juxta: but i dont want desktop sharing
[10:17] <Stupendoussteve> Just have to enable remote desktop in System > Preferences
[10:17] <juxta> krishmish: if you use the tightvnc package, you can setup multiple desktops
[10:18] <krishmish> juxta: i ubuntu machine should offer a user customised desktop...and the same for the same user at all times
[10:18] <konza_> Stupendoussteve, so i should install glade rite? when i searched i saw many packages  which one should i install
[10:18] <onexused> I have an integrated Intel graphics card.  When I try to enable visual effects in gnome's appearance preferences, it tells me "desktop effects could not be enabled".  Where could I find info about why?  Or, how do I enable them?
[10:18] <krishmish> juxta:  like as in between 2 ubuntu machines
[10:18] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: Just sudo apt-get install glade
[10:18] <Jonah_> ooh i had this problem .. need compiz
[10:18] <grawity> krishmish: how do you use it "between 2 ubuntu machines"?
[10:18] <krishmish> juxta: i go to system>administration>login window
[10:19] <konza_> Stupendoussteve,  thanks
[10:19] <krishmish> juxta: click the remote tab and set the style to "same as local"
[10:19] <juxta> krishmish: I don't have a whole lot of knowledge re vnc - I've only used it on server machines, so I probably can't offer too much help
[10:20] <juxta> but there's a tightvnc package which allows you to have multiple desktops
[10:20] <krishmish> juxta:  and from the guest machine at the login terminal i go to options and choose connect via XDMCP
[10:20] <cyberjorge> anyone used Xen and setup virtual servers successfully using ubuntu?
[10:20] <krishmish> juxta:  well thats okay
[10:20] <grawity> krishmish: ah, for XDMCP you could download Xming - it seems to allow connetcing to XDMCP servers from Windows.
[10:21] <krishmish> okay
[10:21] <krishmish> grawity: yeah
[10:21] <krishmish> grawity: i wanna try that
[10:21] <krishmish> grawity: but i s=dont seem to know how to start
[10:21] <krishmish> grawity: can u help me ?
[10:22] <cankoy> onexused: your GPU could be blacklisted in compiz
[10:22] <grawity> krishmish: XDMCP is working already, right? Go to http://www.straightrunning.com/XmingNotes/ and scroll down to "Releases" and download Xming 6.9.0.31
[10:22] <Gustavo> How can I force a screen resolution regardless of what Ubuntu thinks my monitor can handle? I am connected to the machine via a KVM, and it doesn't pass the correct monitor info.
[10:23] <konza_> Stupendoussteve,  is there any tutorial to learn gtk
[10:23] <Jonah_> No Python GTKGLExt support ... when i try 3d view in chess
[10:23] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: I don't know of any, but I'm sure they exist
[10:24] <Jonah_> any ideas folks ?
[10:24] <konza_> Stupendoussteve,  so from where will i start
[10:24] <krishmish> grawity: okay...
[10:24] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: Maybe look around http://www.gtk.org/documentation.html
[10:24] <onexused> cankoy: Where would I find out?
[10:24] <Jonah_> ok thanks .. i'll have a look see
[10:25] <Stupendoussteve> konza_: Or http://glade.gnome.org/
[10:25] <cankoy> onexused: http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/Hardware/Blacklist
[10:25] <onexused> cankoy: Thanks, I'll look.
[10:28] <cankoy> Gustavo: you need to edit Screen section in xorg.conf
[10:28] <Jonah_> agghhh - i'm no computer programmer ! why is there so much talk about compilers in general faqs for linux
[10:29] <krishmish> grawity: okay...well there is a remark there saying its superceded but none the less ...im downloading it
[10:29] <Madpilot> Jonah_, because too many people think that's the best way to get programs for Linux. It isn't, for general users.
[10:29] <grawity> krishmish: The "latest version" of Xming requires you to donate at least a few moneys, that's why I was suggesting the older v6
[10:30] <krishmish> grawity: okay...i got it
[10:30] <grawity> krishmish: Once you install Xming, look for "Xlaunch" shortcut.
[10:30] <Jonah_> you know i would warm to linux so much more if things worked 'out of box' :(
[10:30] <krishmish> grawity: what components do i additionally install?
[10:30] <krishmish> grawity: or shall i take the default settings?
[10:30] <grawity> krishmish: ...what components?
[10:31] <Roland123> Jonah_: most of the things work out of box
[10:31] <krishmish> grawity: during the installation
[10:31] <Madpilot> Jonah_, mostly they do... what's not working for you?
[10:31] <grawity> Hmm, I don't remember what they are
[10:31] <Jonah_> but.. i appreciate its a collection of alot of hard work from many people
[10:31] <Jonah_> well im running ubuntu remix (netbook) msi wind
[10:31] <krishmish> grawity: okay i got it
[10:31] <Lopuz> Hello, i am having sound issues (no sound) with Ubuntu 9.04. I am using module "snd-hda-intel", chipset "Conexant CX20561 (Hermosa)". I have experienced the same problems on debian, and cannot seem to find information about this
[10:31] <Jonah_> so theres alot of screen resolution problems
[10:32] <grawity> krishmish: What components are there?
[10:32] <Jonah_> and no decent webcam (messenger) software is poor :(
[10:32] <krishmish> grawity: well only the portabble ones...i got through with the full install though
[10:33] <krishmish> grawity: im finished with installation
[10:33] <grawity> krishmish: Okay ... run Xlaunch.
[10:33] <krishmish> grawity: ok
[10:33] <CHACHA> HIIIII
[10:34] <krishmish> grawity: i shall select one window
[10:34] <grawity> CHACHA: Hello, how may we help you?
[10:34] <grawity> krishmish: just a minute while I download Xming ... I don't remember all the options
[10:34] <krishmish> grawity: okay
[10:35] <grawity> krishmish: Okay, either "One window" or "Fullscreen" will do.
[10:35] <krishmish> grawity: okay
[10:36] <krishmish> grawity: display number?
[10:36] <grawity> krishmish: Zero
[10:36] <krishmish> grawity: okay
[10:36] <grawity> krishmish: And then choose "Open session via XDMCP", and try "Search for hosts" and see if it finds anything
[10:36] <CHACHA> GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
[10:37] <krishmish> grawity: 1 sec
[10:37] <Agion> hi, how can I configure my X easily? Isn't there a command like xorgconfigure or something?
[10:39] <krishmish> grawity:  okay
[10:39] <krishmish> ok fine
[10:39] <krishmish> grawity: ok fine ...then?
[10:40] <grawity> krishmish: If you see the page with "Clipboard options" and so on, just click Next
[10:40] <Gustavo> cankoy, thank you. I edited the xorg.conf, and now my mouse doesn't appear to work. All I changed was the "Screen" section
[10:40] <krishmish> grawity: done
[10:40] <grawity> krishmish: And then Finish, to launch Xming.
[10:40] <weazel> agion: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config and  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:41] <weazel> agion: see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=690760
[10:41] <Agion> weazel: thanks!
[10:41] <jadi> I want to add     Load "dbe"       to my /etc/X11/xorg.conf but there is no such file! :) Ubuntu 9.04. What should I do?
[10:41] <weazel> oh forget about the dpkg-reconfigure on newer systems it seems
[10:41] <krishmish> grawity: im trying to launch xming...but it doesnt work!!!
[10:42] <krishmish> grawity: tried "run as"
[10:42] <krishmish> grawity: as well
[10:42] <Crazyguy> !karmic
[10:42] <grawity> krishmish: Xlaunch should have started xming automatically.
[10:43] <krishmish> grawity: hmmm...well i dont know why???/
[10:43] <grawity> krishmish: Do you see an X icon next to the clock, in the taskbar?
[10:44] <krishmish> yeah
[10:44] <krishmish> grawity: yes
[10:44] <grawity> krishmish: And it's not connecting to anything?
[10:44] <Eimhin> i've downloaded a .bin file, but the .cue is missing, is there anyway i can burn it without the .cue file, or convert it to an iso?
[10:44] <krishmish> grawity:  no
[10:44] <kk_ubuntu> hello, can some one tell me where are the fonts stored on ubuntu?  I have a few fonts which I want ot use on ubuntu with openoffice for example.
[10:45] <cankoy> Gustavo: then restore your old xorg.conf. I don't fathom how merely editing Screen section affects Input Devices.
[10:45] <kukicola> hi
[10:47] <Eimhin> i've downloaded a .bin file, but the .cue is missing, is there anyway i can burn it without the .cue file, or convert it to an iso?
[10:47] <SunnyD> Eimhin: yes, you can generate a .cue file
[10:48] <cattellar> Here's an idea, when you try to copy an image and it warns you that there is already an image with the same name on that folder, and it ask you to replace, skip etc .... it would be much more helpul if the include previews of both images, so I can compare and see it they're the same, or If I want to discard the older image, or not.
[10:48] <SunnyD> Eimhin: you can use AcetoneISO to do the job-> "sudo apt-get install acetoneiso" or you can get thew latest from getdeb.net
[10:48] <Eimhin> ok, thanks
[10:50] <jrib> cattellar: this isn't the right forum for that.  You want brainstorm.ubuntu.com or bugs.gnome.org
[10:51] <cattellar> Yeah I'm heading to brainstorm right now ... although technically it is a gnome thing, but the gnome people are deaf
[10:51] <cankoy> jadi: dbe is loaded automatically. No need for that.
[10:51] <krytix> .
[10:51] <jadi> cankoy: oh tnx. I was trying to use conky but it does not works
[10:52] <eeg3> Flash is showing a play arrow instead of starting automatically, is there a way to make it so it starts?
[10:53] <sexcopter> hi, i have specified an fstab entry for an sshfs partition, but when mounting it, it says "unknown filesystem type 'sshfs'". I have sshfs install and works when I run the sshfs bin directly. Any ideas?
[10:53] <eeg3> Perhaps it's trying to mount it before it loads the fuse kernel module, sexcopter?
[10:54] <kane77> guys, do you use apt-p2p?
[10:54] <deany> eeg3, dont think so, its a parameter on the server side.
[10:55] <balzac> I just noticed a thing called "indicator-applet" was eating up my CPU, more than 80% on average. Part of the support for the Pidgen IM client, it seems.
[10:55] <eeg3> The fuse kernel module has to be loaded to use sshfs
[10:55] <balzac> I killed the process and was rewarded with better performance
[10:56] <balzac> It reminds me of the tracker daemon
[10:56] <balzac> a not very useful process, hastily coded, consuming resources
[10:57] <balzac> Also, gconfd is consuming 20% of my CPU and doing a lot of IO to the hard drive
[10:57] <balzac> another questionable process consuming more than its share
[10:58] <balzac> It makes me wonder if people are using visual basic to build these things...
[10:58] <balzac> jk
[10:58] <Le-Chuck_ITA> does the alternate cd have a partition resize interface?
[10:58] <cattellar> seriously is conky not working? It's not running on my jaunty
[10:58] <balzac> I'm enjoying Ubuntu, overall. But I'd like to cast my vote against Mono.
[10:58] <O__o> hi all of a suddent today i cant view any videos in facebook : You must download and install the latest version of the Adobe Flash Player to view this content
[10:58] <ikonia> balzac: what are you talking about ?
[10:58] <balzac> And that means a vote cast against Banshee as well.
[10:59] <balzac> ikonia: wasteful processes
[10:59] <O__o> but i can view videos in youtube? any idea?
[10:59] <cattellar> Banshee is great
[10:59] <balzac> trackerd, indicator-applet, gconfd
[10:59] <ikonia> balzac: this is a support channel - as you know
[11:00] <balzac> ikonia: I tried to join #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:00] <O__o> Flash Player upgrade required
[11:00] <O__o> You must download and install the latest version of the Adobe Flash Player to view this content.  well i did download the newest one and install but still cant see videos on facebook :(
[11:00] <ikonia> balzac: so ?
[11:00] <balzac> I think this is my only place to give feedback on the performance of Ubuntu right now
[11:00] <sexcopter> eeg3: yeah, i think you're right. I rewrote the line to "sshfs#user@host:/ /mount/point/ fuse" and that seems to have worked. Cheers.
[11:00] <ikonia> balzac: it's not - giving feedback here has no value, it's a support channel
[11:00] <balzac> alright, it's not the place
[11:01] <ikonia> balzac: thank you
[11:01] <balzac> Can I be allowed into #ubuntu-offtopic ?
[11:01] <ikonia> balzac: that is dicussed in #ubuntu-ops as you know
[11:01] <balzac> alright, then I'll drop by later.
[11:02] <jrib> cattellar: where's your bug on gnome's bug tracker?
[11:02] <jrib> cattellar: or did you use the mailing list?
[11:02] <balzac> jrib: I opened up a bug on it myself
[11:03] <jrib> balzac: I'm pretty sure we are talking about different things
[11:03] <cattellar> jrib, it's not really a bug, just a feature I think it's useful, I just posted it on #gnome
[11:03] <cattellar> I guess that's not the best place though
[11:03] <O__o> what is the latest flash?
[11:03] <jrib> cattellar: irc isn't really the right place.  You can file the bug as a feature request or try to get some discussion going on the mailing list first
[11:04] <balzac> nevermind. I was thinking of trackerd.
[11:04] <cattellar> jrib, I see
[11:07] <krishmish> grawity: sorry i had to log out
[11:07] <cattellar> Do you think using openbox on ubuntu isn't very classy?
[11:07] <jrib> cattellar: try #ubuntu-offtopic for that
[11:07] <cattellar> That's the problem with ubuntu, I always feel im bonded to gnoe
[11:08] <jrib> cattellar: i use xmonad on ubuntu w/o issue...
[11:08] <cankoy> O__o: type about:plugins into firefox's address bar and see what version you've got
[11:09] <O__o> cankoy, 9.0 r124
[11:09] <O__o> cankoy, how come i can view all videos except the ones on facebook?
[11:10] <cattellar> jrib, i'm checking out xnomad ... looks interesting
[11:10] <O__o> cankoy, i can view the ones on facebook like 4 days ago
[11:10] <jrib> cattellar: sure it's great, but you should be able to use any window manager you want and not feel "bonded to gnome" :)
[11:11] <O__o> how to install flash 10 properly?
[11:11] <cankoy> O__o: sudo apt-get --reinstall install flashplugin-installer
[11:12] <O__o> do i need to uninstall 9 first?
[11:13] <cankoy> O__o: how did you install 9? outside the repos?
[11:13] <O__o> long time ago
[11:13] <O__o> and i installed version 10
[11:14] <O__o> but somehow couple days ago version is back
[11:14] <O__o> i dont know why
[11:14] <krishmish> grawity: u there?
[11:14] <O__o> do i do this 1st: sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree
[11:15] <O__o> then close ff and this? sudo dpkg -i sudo dpkg -i install_flash_player_10_linux.deb
[11:15] <cankoy> O__o: check .mozilla/plugins folder, and remove and flash releted .so files first.
[11:16] <O__o> cankoy, dont have .mozilla/plugins
[11:16] <krishmish> im unabel to launch xming !!!
[11:18] <cankoy> O__o: dpkg -l '*flash*'
[11:18] <cankoy> O__o: check the lines that start with ii
[11:18] <O__o> cankoy, none
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[11:19] <krishmish> can someone help me with how to launch xming?
[11:19] <cankoy> O__o: then the apt-get command should do fine, try it
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> krishmish: you just run it, it sits in your system tray waiting for a request for an x server
[11:19] <grawity> ActionParsnip: He's trying to connect to an XDMCP server
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> krishmish: do you mean xming in windows?
[11:20] <krishmish> ActionParsnip: yes...i wanna connect to ubuntu machine from xp
[11:21] <krishmish> ActionParsnip: im able to connect between 2 ubuntu machines
[11:21] <ActionParsnip> krishmish: ok thats fine, run xming and it sits and waits, then launch: putty -X name@server
[11:21] <krishmish> but im unable to do so from a windows machine
[11:21] <grawity> ActionParsnip: _XDMCP_
[11:21] <krishmish> ActionParsnip: in the run window?
[11:21] <gorbierd> hey!
[11:21] <ActionParsnip> krishmish: yes in the windows run box, put putty.exe in your windows dir
[11:22] <grawity> ActionParsnip: And that one was a stupid suggestion
[11:22] <ActionParsnip> grawity: if he wants x forwarding i'll give him it
[11:22] <grawity> ActionParsnip: He wants to use XDMCP - not over SSH.
[11:22] <ActionParsnip> grawity: why, makes it universally runable throughout the system
[11:22] <O__o> now how to make opera uses the flash plugin?
[11:22] <gorbierd> i've installed kubuntu-desktop and since this two users are running at start up. how do i prevent this?
[11:22] <grawity> ActionParsnip: And as for PuTTY, a much better solution is to add %ProgramFiles%\PuTTY to %Path%.
[11:22] <krishmish> ActionParsnip: grawity: i wanna use xdmcp please
[11:23] <ActionParsnip> grawity: its more paths to search, a simple file copy is way easier
[11:23] <ringo999> i just installed the latest xubuntu release. "listen" music player seems to miss some gstreamer plugins (i.e. for mp3)?
[11:23] <ActionParsnip> O__o: cd ~/.opera/plugins; ln -s /path/to/libflashplayer.so
[11:23] <ringo999> also wondering about german keyboard settings on a Macbook. I think I tried every possible combination...
[11:24] <grawity> ActionParsnip: Easier maybe, but it may create a lot of problems with file permissions and stuff. There's always an easy way and the right way.
[11:24] <O__o> i dont know where the flashplugin is saved
[11:24] <ActionParsnip> O__o: sudo find / -name libflashplayer.so
[11:24] <krishmish> ActionParsnip: grawity: what am i to do now?
[11:25] <felix_> felix_> im having trouble configuring tnt2 on a old p4 1.5
 X fails, error is
 EE failed to load .../nvidia_drv.so ; EE failed to load module nvidia ; EE no driver available
[11:25] <ActionParsnip> krishmish: http://www.zolved.com/synapse/view_content/28158/Remote_Login_via_XDMCP_on_Ubuntu
[11:25] <felix_> lsmod shows nvidia loaded
[11:26] <ActionParsnip> felix_: i'd reinstall your driver, revert back to vesa with: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   , reboot then reinstall your driver
[11:26] <ActionParsnip> !keyboard > ringo999
[11:26] <felix_> ActionParsnip, i did with envyng. it must me doing something wrong?
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> felix_: yes, you use envyng
[11:27] <joeljose421> hy all.. i intalled ubuntu 9.04 64bbit on a q9550 cpu and with 8gb of corsair ram... but the lsystem monitor only shows 7.6gb ram.. the 8.04lts version showed only 7.7gb ram
[11:27] <joeljose421> any ideas as to why?
[11:27] <mikubuntu> hey guys, i know normally laptops don't have too much amplification, but this used toshiba satellite i bought is a harmon kardon model, and they play up the great sound and all... anyways i just installed ubuntu 9.04 and trying to listen to music, but volume really low.  any ideas?
[11:27] <grawity> ActionParsnip: krishmish said he wants to login from _Windows_ and has already set up Ubuntu.
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> felix_: this is one reason it is not advised, you upgraded your kernel but enyng doesnt upgrade the nvidia driver with the kernel
[11:28] <ActionParsnip> felix_: so now you must revert to failsafe graphics, boot to the new kernel then rerun envyng
[11:29] <gartral> the caps lock light on my keyboards are stuck on.. state changes ok, but there bright as heck... how do I disable them via software?
[11:29] <onyx> apache2 installation went well and all, phpmyadmin said it was installed but there is no phpmyadmin folder in var/www and I can't paste the folder from win HD because I'm not root what's the command for allowing everyone all access
[11:29] <krishmish> ActionParsnip: grawity: yeah...ive set up ubuntu
[11:29] <ActionParsnip> krishmish: i'd use the xming / putty and you will be able to run gui apps from the putty terminal
[11:30] <krishmish> ActionParsnip: grawity: now i need to get ahead with windows<-->ubuntu
[11:30] <krishmish> ActionParsnip: grawity: hmm...okay...
[11:30] <si4re> hello
[11:30] <O__o> ActionParsnip,  sudo ln -s /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/ /usr/lib/opera/plugins/  ???
[11:30] <grawity> ActionParsnip: he wants XDMCP
[11:30] <ActionParsnip> O__o: nope
[11:30] <felix_> ActionParsnip, at first i installed ubuntu server, and then i made apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ; now i have two kernels, generic and server. whaat may i use?
[11:30] <ActionParsnip> O__o: you need the .so file
[11:30] <anr78> anyone running svn 1.6.x in jaunty?
[11:30] <krishmish> ActionParsnip: grawity: but yeah...i would prefer XDMCP
[11:30] <O__o> ActionParsnip, so now what?  do i need to undone that?
[11:31] <ringo999> ubottu: so it suggests to edit my xorg.conf. My xorg.conf on xubuntu jauntry does not contain any entry for keyboard settings... already tried to add from my working debian but it didnt help...
[11:31] <gartral> onyx try sudo cp <pasth to win phpmyadmin folder> /var/www/phpmyadmin
[11:31] <ActionParsnip> O__o: no, the command will fail as the folder already exists
[11:31] <joeljose421> krishmish : no u wont be able to get all the graphic features..even using xming or any other remote access
[11:31] <O__o> ActionParsnip, so what is the exact command?
[11:31] <joeljose421> look at this.. 1024X800 needs aroung 800mb to be transmitted...
[11:31] <ActionParsnip> O__o: i think you can do it that way though, like link the whole plugins folder
[11:32] <O__o> how?
[11:32] <onyx> gartral: I did sudo nautilus
[11:32] <joeljose421> at maximum you may get 30fps in ur glxgears..esp over fastethernet.. if u used gigabit then may be a little more fps
[11:32] <gartral> onyx ... bad idea, if your going to run a gui as root, use gksu
[11:32] <ActionParsnip> O__o: i idon't know where the package install the .so file to as I dont use the packed flash thing. I have zero luck with it on my 64bit rigs and always use the tar.gz and extract it to ~/.mozilla/plugins
[11:33] <joeljose421> guys any ideas why 64bit ubuntu wont show full ram??
[11:33] <joeljose421> is there any known limitation to using full 8gb ram?
[11:33] <ActionParsnip> O__o: yu won't have that folder as it needs to be made manually as well. Maybe someone else can give you the path to the .so file
[11:33] <O__o> ActionParsnip, it is in /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin
[11:33] <gartral> joeljose421: how much ram do you have vs how much should it show? *some* appearent loss of ram is fine
[11:33] <ActionParsnip> O__o: gotcha
[11:33] <O__o> ActionParsnip, opera's plugin folder
[11:33] <O__o> /usr/lib/opera/plugins
[11:33] <onyx> gartral: you mean like gksudo nautilus
[11:34] <O__o> so what do i do?
[11:34] <jrib> joeljose421: does your bios see 8gb?
[11:34] <gartral> onyx: just gksu nautilus
[11:34] <ActionParsnip> O__o: cd ~/.opera/plugins;  ln -s /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so
[11:34] <joeljose421> yes
[11:34] <joeljose421> bios see 8gb
[11:34] <krishmish> joeljose421: yeah...but worth a try..:-)
[11:34] <joeljose421> i have 8gb.. and the linux shows 7.6gb in 9.04
[11:34] <felix_> ActionParsnip, at first i installed ubuntu server, and then i made apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ; now i have two kernels, generic and server. whaat may i use?
[11:34] <joeljose421> in 8.04 it showed 7.7gb
[11:34] <O__o> cd into opera plugin dir then create symbolic link there by that command?
[11:35] <ActionParsnip> felix_: why install server than the ubuntu-desktop?
[11:35] <gartral> joeljose421: thatts normal, some ram is left for system only use, your within safe paramiters
[11:35] <joeljose421> 600mb??
[11:35] <joeljose421> are u nuts?
[11:35] <ActionParsnip> felix_: why did you install the server version if you are going to sling an X server on it, doesnt make any sense at all
[11:35] <joeljose421> sorry.. i was just a little pissed off with this 64bit stuff
[11:35] <gartral> joeljose421: most likely your vid card is requesting a horking amount of memory if its a shared memory card
[11:36] <felix_> ActionParsnip, to have a LAMP server from first install and then have the full desktop environment of ubuntu desktop.
[11:36] <O__o> ActionParsnip, i dont have ~/.opera/plugins
[11:36] <Kartagis> how to query what packages are on my system?
[11:36] <joeljose421> ohh.. may be..
[11:36] <ActionParsnip> felix_: you can install lamp on desktop...
[11:36] <joeljose421> its a g45 based onboard
[11:36] <joeljose421> dg45id is my motherboard
[11:36] <gartral> joeljose421: that explains it, yea, your fine
[11:37] <joeljose421> but i wish i could have had that memory back
[11:37] <joeljose421> ;(
[11:37] <felix_> ActionParsnip, yes, but i did this way. so, what kernel must i use?
[11:37] <gartral> joeljose421: i have an 8mb onboard shared card that makes me fidgit every time i see 10 less megs in my 512 ram
[11:37] <joeljose421> i dont use any graphic intensive apps
[11:37] <joeljose421> i use a lot of vmwares
[11:38] <joeljose421> i just need barebone gnome.or even a lighter gui.. but this 600gb of wasted ram..
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> O__o: if you run: cp ~/.opera/pluginpath.ini ~/.opera/pluginpath.ini_old; gedit ~/.opera/pluginpath.ini
[11:38] <gartral> joeljose421: doesn't matter, the card will *allways* reserve it's top amount of memory
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> O__o: you can add your firefox plugin path/s to the file
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> O__o: http://my.opera.com/lounge/forums/topic.dml?id=189210
[11:38] <O__o> ?
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> felix_: in your case, both are equal
[11:38] <joeljose421> but....
[11:38] <joeljose421> i have 32bit xp
[11:39] <joeljose421> in a laptop of hp
[11:39] <cankoy> O__o: don't mess with the filesystem. paths. etc. The settings are in Opera's pref.
[11:39] <felix_> ActionParsnip, but modules load on only 1 kernel
[11:39] <gartral> !enter | joeljose421
[11:39] <joeljose421> and that recognises 2gb ram completely
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> cankoy: thats why the first command backs up the file ;)
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> cankoy: i always include a rolback path
[11:39] <ActionParsnip> felix_: then use that kernel
[11:39] <meganox> joeljose421: how do you know XP is correct?  the GPU will reserve just as much memory in both cases
[11:39] <gartral> XP uses device identifiers for memory, and reports the capacity of the ram, Linux reports what it can use by what it can address
[11:40] <ActionParsnip> cankoy: plus, its only for the user, not the system
[11:40] <cankoy> O__o: Prefs > Advanced > Content > Plugin Options...
[11:41] <joeljose421> i have used 1.5gb in xp for vmware and also run a couple of dynamips instances.. so i think i have used atleast 1.8gb completely
[11:41] <GhostWolf76> can anyone help me? im trying to remove my ipod from my comp so it can stop saying do not disconnect from my ipod and i keep doing safely remove and nothing happens
[11:41] <gartral> joeljose421: I would go and by a PCI-e gfx card with on board memory, and disable your onboard card in bios
[11:41] <krishmish> grawity: u there? or busy?
[11:41] <O__o> cankoy, i ln -s the plugin files there now it works
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> O__o: cool
[11:41] <joeljose421> okay may be not.. i cant be too sure about that...but 600 gb of wasted ram for a video card.. makes me really mad. i hope its not a linux kernel issue..
[11:42] <gartral> joeljose421: keep in mind XP has the seamless pagefile... and anything that bleeds out of ram will use that file
[11:42] <O__o> why cant they just use standard dir for all plugins and let all browsers use it?
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> O__o: easiest way by far, and you did it all outside of the opera gui, imagine :)
[11:42] <xtknight> what's that program you use to make deb files fast?
[11:42] <GhostWolf76> can anyone please help me with my problem?
[11:42] <O__o> opera gui is horrible now
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> O__o: you can make your system like that, but you are right it is a pain
[11:42] <gartral> joeljose421: also, your laptop may have a dedicated memory card
[11:42] <O__o> just like IE,
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> O__o: skin it. I think opera is awesome
[11:42] <O__o> i skin it
[11:42] <dakira> Does anyone know if there is any support for MPX (Multiple Pointer X) in  jaunty? The current X Server (i.e. XInput) should support it, but I can't find anything on the net.
[11:43] <O__o> i mean the preferences are so complicated now
[11:43] <joeljose421> okay i will get an pci-e card and turn the onboard off. thanks for the informations. really appreciated.
[11:43] <xtknight> never mind it's checkinstall
[11:43] <O__o> opera used to be simple and easy to setup
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> O__o: if you can familiarise yourself with the conf files its the same ;)
[11:43] <joeljose421> gartral : oh yes it does!. Nvidia 8600ms.
[11:43] <gartral> joeljose421: np, I know how worriesome it can be when your OS reports less than your POST
[11:44] <joeljose421> okay thanks again.. and sorry for the enter as puncuation... i will try to correct my old bad habbit. ;)
[11:44] <GhostWolf76> can anyone please help me??
[11:44] <felix_> ActionParsnip,i reconfigured xserver, ran envyng, rebooted and x fails at start
[11:44] <felix_> errors are :
[11:44] <felix_> felix_> im having trouble configuring tnt2 on a old p4 1.5
 X fails, error is
 EE failed to load .../nvidia_drv.so ; EE failed to load module nvidia ; EE no driver available
[11:44] <FloodBot2> felix_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:44] <felix_> the same as before
[11:44] <ActionParsnip> felix_: so you got an x server after reconfiguring the x server and rebooting?
[11:44] <gartral> joeljose421: yea, my desktop has 512 megs ram, and an AGP 6200... that card takes 2 megs to adress... and the internal *can't* be killed by bios on my board
[11:45] <dakira> O__o: Opera is still easy to set up. You install it and you're done. If you want more it is still as configurable as ever. The configuratuion options haven't changed in the past years (except there are some more now)
[11:45] <joeljose421> bye folks.. see you again.. hopefully next time without any problems to debug. ;)
[11:45] <felix_> ActionParsnip, yes
[11:45] <felix_> ActionParsnip, then i ran again envyng, rebooted, and so..
[11:45] <gartral> the caps lock light on my keyboards are stuck on.. state changes ok, but there bright as heck... how do I disable them via software?
[11:45] <petsounds> hello, what is the different between sudo apt-get remove and autoremove? thank you
[11:45] <GhostWolf76> ok guess no one wants to help me.. which sucks..
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> felix_: i think once you are in the x environment you need to remove then reinstall envyng. Its how I used to do it. Why dont you just remove the envyng garbage and install nvidia-glx-180
[11:46] <ziroday> petsounds: autoremove removes all orphaned packages, whilst remove only removes the listed packages
[11:46] <gartral> petsounds: sudo apt-get remove removes a package of your specification, autoremove takes that package and any packages linked too it
[11:46] <felix_> ActionParsnip, im using a nvidia tnt2. driver is nvidia 71
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> felix_: when you upgrade, dkms will take place and you won't have this issue
[11:46] <BlackHawk> hi, how can I setup several news servers in Pan and then choose which to use!?
[11:47] <ActionParsnip> felix_: the use the 71 driver, I used to have a tnt2 ultra 32 back in the day. great card
[11:47] <ActionParsnip> felix_: its one of the reasons why envy isnt recommended.
[11:47] <ActionParsnip> !envy > felix_
[11:48] <felix_> ActionParsnip, i installed that way too, but x have the same errors. perhaps we can try to find why x could not load module?
[11:48] <petsounds> ziroday: and what's the best method?
 EE failed to load .../nvidia_drv.so ; EE failed to load module nvidia ; EE no driver available
[11:48] <O__o> dakira, thats what i mean
[11:48] <O__o> they always change their path in diff version
[11:48] <ziroday> petsounds: what do you mean? autoremove can't be used to remove packages, its just a "clean up" tool
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> felix_: if you run: less /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[11:49] <gartral> felix_: what's your onboard card, I had trouble getting an external card to run f its the same manufactuerr as the internal
[11:49] <peterfox20> Hi, Can I find a certain ubuntu package version where a specific upstream bug has been solved? I want to know if the KMail Bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=191753 has been solved in https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/kdepim/4:4.2.90-0ubuntu1
[11:49] <ActionParsnip> felix_: you can read what is going on
[11:49] <felix_> gardar, intel board, nvidia agp card
[11:50] <gartral> felix_: is the onboard GPU Intel, or Nvidia?
[11:50] <felix_> gartral, no onboard gpu
[11:51] <petsounds> ziroday: if i'm going to remove game (wormux), what should i write on terminal sudo apt-get remove wormux or autoremove?
[11:51] <ziroday> peterfox20: lemme see what I can find, no promises :)
[11:51] <ziroday> peterfox20: also #kubuntu might be helpful
[11:51] <cypha> how do u get the mac looking taskbar at the bottom?
[11:51] <gartral> felix_: strange... is AGP active in bios? or does it support the smart gart thing?
[11:51] <ziroday> petsounds: you should do sudo apt-get remove wormux. sudo apt-get autoremove will then remove all the dependencies of wormux that are no longer needed
[11:51] <ziroday> cypha: use a dock?
[11:51] <cypha> i guess
[11:51] <cypha> yeah
[11:52] <cypha> but how do you do that?
[11:52] <felix_> ActionParsnip, says the same 3 errors, and (II) UnloadModule "nvidia" after the first
[11:52] <felix_> EE failed to load .../nvidia_drv.so ; EE failed to load module nvidia ; EE no driver available
[11:52] <cypha> i downloaded a theme that looks mac-ish, but it isn't letting me use it as a theme
[11:52] <petsounds> ziroday: thanks
[11:52] <ziroday> cypha: well you need to pick one, popular ones are AWN, gnome-do+docky and cairo-dock
[11:52] <cypha> is it not allowed in gnome?
[11:52] <cypha> i have gnome-do
[11:52] <ziroday> petsounds: it appears to be fixed in 4.2.4, which kubuntu has through a PPA
[11:52] <peterfox20> ziroday: thank you for your effort
[11:52] <BlackHawk> how can I setup several news servers in Pan and then choose which to use!?
[11:52] <ActionParsnip> cypha: provided its a gnome theme you can use it
[11:53] <cypha> are any of the three that ziroday mentioned GNome?
[11:53] <petsounds> cypha: if u want your ubuntu looks like mac, download mac4lin
[11:53] <gartral> cypha: warning about AWN.. it *must* have a compositing manager to run!
[11:53] <ziroday> cypha: all the docks I mentioned are designed for gnome
[11:53] <cypha> not sure what that is
[11:53] <felix_> gartral, the mobo doesnt have built in card. the agp works.
[11:53] <cypha> oh ok
[11:53] <ziroday> gartral: all the docks I mentioned require compositing to run
[11:53] <cypha> what's a compositing manager?
[11:53] <gartral> !compiz | cypha
[11:53] <ziroday> cypha: do you use compiz AKA desktop effects?
[11:53] <cypha> yeah
[11:53] <cypha> compiz
[11:53] <ActionParsnip> felix_: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-212584.html
[11:54] <ziroday> cypha: compiz is a compositing thingy
[11:54] <cypha> lol
[11:54] <cypha> k great
[11:54] <cypha> so which is the best out of the three that ziroday mentioned?
[11:54] <petsounds> ziroday: u mean wormux?
[11:54] <cypha> in your honest opinion, might i add
[11:54] <ziroday> !best | cypha
[11:54] <gartral> cypha: nautilus *can* be used as a compositin manager if your tight on resources... but I can only get awn to run with it...
[11:54] <cypha> which one is the most lightweight?
[11:55] <cypha> or which one has a cool feature?
[11:55] <ziroday> petsounds: woops got you mixed up, sudo apt-get remove wormux is what you want
[11:55] <gartral> cypha: docky
[11:55] <ziroday> cypha: try them all out and decide for yourself :)
[11:55] <cypha> cairo?
[11:55] <cypha> k
[11:55] <cypha> if i try them all, won't it bog down/slow my system
[11:55] <cypha> having all that extra stuff
[11:55] <cypha> with exgtra files
[11:55] <ziroday> peterfox20: that crasher should be fixed in 4.2.4 which should be available by a PPA
[11:55] <gartral> cypha: look for screenshots on wikipedia of all the docks
[11:55] <cypha> that even when i remove the package, latent files will be kept on my computer
[11:55] <gartral> !autoremove | cypha
[11:55] <ziroday> cypha: when you remove the package it won't bog down your computer
[11:56] <cypha> i tried removing ggl-qt and it still hasn't removed!
[11:56] <gartral> cypha: that's why we have autoremove
[11:56] <cypha> it's still there
[11:56] <dakira> gartral: You mean metacity and not nautilus.. the compositing abilities of metacity work perfectly well for notifiactions, awn or docky (gnome do).. the latter uses a lot less resources than awn btw.
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> cypha: use --purge when you apt-get remove, also if you sudo apt-get --purge autoremove   it will remove all the packages you no longer need (plus their configs)
[11:56] <ziroday> cypha: if you really don't want to install them, then there are youtube videos and screenshots and such. As to which one you will enjoy the most is completely up to you
[11:56] <ActionParsnip> cypha: you can also chack for apps that have fallen by the wayside with deborphan
[11:57] <gartral> dakira: yes, but is it as pretty?
[11:57] <cypha> wayside?
[11:57] <cypha> autoremove ggl-qt "command not found"
[11:57] <ActionParsnip> cypha: yeah, packages that have no dependanices or requirements
[11:57] <gartral> cypha: sudo apt-get autoremove
[11:57] <cypha> i'm not sure how i installed it...whether apt-get install, or aptitude install
[11:57] <cypha> or whatever
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> cypha: both are fine
[11:58] <dakira> gartral: you won't have the compiz effects.. but on slow machines or machines with bad support for compiz it is better than no compositing at all (i.e. getting no transparent notifications or not being able to use docky at all)
[11:58] <cypha> ntried getting it, nothing to gegt
[11:58] <cypha> autoremove, that is
[11:58] <gartral> cypha: either way, the both edit the same databases, and both can (un)install anything you installed wit any other Apt-method (including GUIs)
[11:58] <ActionParsnip> cypha: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove
[11:58] <dakira> cypha: it is personal preference.. I'd stay with apt-get until you have a reason to switch to aptitude.. but you SHOULD stick with one of them
[11:59] <cypha> k, i purged autoremove
[11:59] <cypha> nothing was removed
[11:59] <cypha> 0 to remove and 7 not upgraded
[11:59] <gartral> dakira: I was asking about docky, trust me, i know of metacity's compositing manager ability, but for some reason, compiz works better or me..
[11:59] <ActionParsnip> cypha: if you purge, then reinstall. you will need to configure the app again. If you omit --purge the old settings will still be on your system
[11:59] <felix_> ActionParsnip, that solution does not work. no file called nvidia_drv.o, nor in my pc nor in any package of the repos
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> cypha: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:00] <cypha> notihng was removed though when i purged
[12:00] <gartral> felix_:  locate nvidia_drv.so
[12:00] <cypha> ActionParsnip: what's that for?
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> felix_: not in the locations the guide states
[12:00] <cypha> i have 9.04
[12:00] <ActionParsnip> cypha: gets the 7 updates you don't have
[12:00] <cypha> aah
[12:00] <cypha> cool
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> felix_:  do you have them where the guide says they should be?
[12:01] <cypha> jaunty-proposed/main linux-libc-dev
[12:01] <cypha> ?
[12:01] <cypha> from security.ubuntu.com
[12:01] <lhotellier> .
[12:01] <lhotellier> plop
[12:02] <gartral> heh, fun alias for easy updating: alias="sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade"
[12:02] <gartral> heh, fun alias for easy updating: alias grad="sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade"
[12:02] <lhotellier> he fuck
[12:02] <petsounds> and one more thing, if i want to install ubuntu 9. 04 on my asus eee pc 1000 what should i choose? desktop edition or netbook remix? and please give me a link  about howto install cause i read from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC/Installation it's just expired.
[12:02] <ActionParsnip> gartral: i have similar in a script, sudo fullupdate  ;)
[12:02] <mib_7fah5s> how can i check which wireless card driver i am using?
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> mib_7fah5s: sudo lshw -C network
[12:03] <felix_> gartral, /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/
[12:03] <ziroday> mib_7fah5s: pastebin lspci and lsmod please
[12:03] <krishmish> someone can help me set up xdmcp from windows to login to ubuntu machine?
[12:03] <gartral> felix_: ok, now follow actioninstructions with the new path/to/nvidia_drv.so
[12:03] <bettytee> hey people
[12:04] <dakira> gartral: okay.. docky works really nice in metacity for me (on nvidia and intel-onboard)
[12:04] <gartral> felix_: ok, now follow actionparsnipsinstructions with the new path/to/nvidia_drv.so
[12:04] <bettytee> i am running a live cd, but why is it running so slow. when i open new applications. i have atlest a 1gb of ram. or by default does ubuntu not copy everything from the cd into memory?
[12:04] <gartral> bettytee: livcds are ALLWAYS sloooooooowwww
[12:05] <gartral> the caps lock light on my keyboards are stuck on.. state changes ok, but there bright as heck... how do I disable them via software?
[12:06] <felix_> gartral, what instructions?
[12:06] <bettytee> yes there must be a reason for it though, is it because it is not runny from ALL memory, but in fact is still running from the cd
[12:06] <mib_7fah5s> ziroday: http://pastebin.com/d59869e30  http://pastebin.com/d76b720c7
[12:06] <bettytee> is there any way after the or during the boot proccess i can create a ramdrive and copy the cd contents or atlest needed contents into memory
[12:07] <DysonReturns> greets guys
[12:07] <gartral> felix_: I think I put your name in by mistake, disregard
[12:07] <ziroday> mib_7fah5s: iwl3945
[12:07] <gartral> !giberish
[12:07] <mib_7fah5s> ziroday: is this the driver?
[12:07] <gartral> !foo
[12:07] <ziroday> mib_7fah5s: yep, that's the driver being used
[12:07] <cypha> how can i see the last 7 packages i installed?
[12:07] <ziroday> !msgthebot > gartral
[12:08] <cypha> secondly, whatever i just insatlled, i now have another instance of ubuntu in GRUB
[12:08] <cypha> as well as the recovery
[12:08] <cypha> it made me restart, and i saw this
[12:08] <ziroday> cypha: you installed a new kernel, its good for you
[12:08] <cypha> how do i know which is which?
[12:08] <mib_7fah5s> ziroday: how can i support monitor mode with this driver for my wireless card?
[12:08] <gartral> wait,, theres a kernal update? when was this?
[12:08] <snoopy> Hello All
[12:08] <cypha> and why didn't it just replace the old kernel
[12:09] <simplexio> cypha: one that has bigger number is newer
[12:09] <cypha> i have all this crap in my sources.list that some website told me to add
[12:09] <Jyxt> cypha keeps the old kernels in case new kernel is broken
[12:09] <ziroday> cypha: because the old kernel is kept around just in case something breaks
[12:09] <cypha> because it has a whole lot of other sites that can be updated from
[12:09] <DysonReturns> any easy way for me to change my hostname?
[12:09] <Jyxt> you can change that in the menu.lst...some option in there for how many kernels to show
[12:09] <snoopy> Can I have some help disabling a network card (forever) ?
[12:09] <cypha> so i hope i didn't upgrade to some beta thing
[12:09] <gartral> cypha: it did.. but it left the old kernal as a backup incase your system goes wonkey
[12:09] <simplexio> cypha: and it good idea to keep old kernel too there
[12:09] <ziroday> DysonReturns: edit /etc/hostname?
[12:09] <iceroot> snoopy: onboard nic?
[12:09] <ziroday> mib_7fah5s: err try using it airmon-ng?
[12:09] <CapaH> I am using xbindkeys - I have mapped Super+Button2 to a 'command' -- however, I want that 'command' to be 'close active window'. What 'command' achieves this goal?
[12:10] <DysonReturns> k thanks
[12:10] <iceroot> CapaH: alt +f4
[12:10] <cypha> i'd rather remove it
[12:10] <cypha> i don't want multiple instances
[12:10] <CapaH> iceroot: Yes but I cannot put alt+f4 into xbindkeys
[12:10] <snoopy> I have two wireless cards but one only does WEP and I want it disabled forever.   The WEP card is the one Ubuntu wants to use all the time by default.
[12:10] <CapaH> What I am trying to do is make super+button2 on my mouse do the same thing as alt+f4
[12:10] <cypha> also, how can i set windows to be the default to start or increase the time to choose?
[12:10] <gartral> cypha: why? it's only taking up about 5mb
[12:10] <iceroot> CapaH: then use alt +f4 without any xbindkey
[12:10] <bettytee> is there any way after the or during the boot proccess i can create a ramdrive and copy the cd contents or atlest needed contents into memory
[12:11] <zeeble> Hi.. can anyone point out a howto/etc that tells howto convert vob files to flv? i have an event video on DVD that i want to put on the www
[12:11] <ziroday> cypha: you can do that through startupmanager (SUM) or by editing your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:11] <simplexio> cypha: /boot/grub/menu.lst and aedit default and wait time
[12:11] <cypha> cuz in the past, i've ended up with like 20 instances of ubuntu in grub
[12:11] <iceroot> CapaH: just use it in gnome or something you are using
[12:11] <Jyxt> !info startupmanager
[12:11] <CapaH> iceroot: Obviously, but my goal is to make it so I can press Super+B2 and get the same result. I had this working before, then I reinstalled and I have to do it again.
[12:11] <Jyxt> cypha install that and it'll  help you immensly
[12:11] <Jyxt> sudo apt-get install startupmanager
[12:11] <CapaH> so what I need is a command-line thing that does the same as alt+f4
[12:11] <iceroot> CapaH: why pressing super + b2 if alt + f4 is alreday working?
[12:11] <znh> hmm I just installed Ubuntu Jaunty. It had desktop effects enabled by default and it worked. I disabled it to check the difference between performance.. Now the strange this is, when I enable it.. It won't work no more. Saying desktop effects could not be enabled.. Anyone an idea?
[12:11] <cypha> thanks
[12:12] <ziroday> znh: please pastebin the output of compiz --replace
[12:12] <CapaH> iceroot: holding the windows key and clicking a window is significantly faster than using both hands to press alt+f4
[12:12] <Jyxt> cypha outside of that you could edit /boot/grub/menu.lst most of the options are commented so you can see what they do
[12:12] <cypha> how can i see the last 10 packages i installed?
[12:12] <znh> ziroday, okay will do
[12:12] <CapaH> iceroot: Its just a matter of personal preference
[12:12] <ziroday> CapaH: you can either install gnome-do or rebind the run dialog to super+space
[12:12] <gartral> znh: open a terminal window and type compiz --replace
[12:12] <mib_o78wzgr9> hi
[12:12] <mib_o78wzgr9> i dont know if any body can help regarding setserial config....i did all seting useing regarding all serial port ....i have 16 serial ports and i test all and they are working in all ports..any how how i can save this settings so when i boot the pc serial setting will not change???
[12:12] <Bart6114> a bit off-topic but;  does anyone know of some sort of opensource webbased software development collaboration tool exist? one that can be easily installed using a standard hosting plan (php/mysql)?
[12:13] <znh> ziroday, gartral, that just works
[12:13] <ziroday> !ot | Bart6114
[12:13] <znh> performance isn't that great though.
[12:13] <Boohbah> Bart6114: mediawiki
[12:13] <CapaH> ziroday, gnome-do is interesting, how would I do this using gnome-do ?
[12:13] <gartral> znh: install the compiz-config-settings-manager
[12:14] <ziroday> CapaH: gnome-do is already binded to super+space I believe
[12:14] <znh> gartral, looks like it uses indirect rendering. while it should be able to perform 3D
[12:14] <Bart6114> ubottu: I'll take it somewhere else!
[12:14] <Boohbah> Bart6114: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_content_management_systems
[12:14] <Bart6114> Boohbah: thanks!
[12:14] <cypha> how can i see a list of the last 10 packages i installed??
[12:15] <snoopy>  Can I have some help disabling a network card (forever) ?
[12:15] <CapaH> ziroday: What I am trying to do specifically is this - I want to press Super+<click mouse button 2> and have it close the active window. Does gnome-do make this possibel?
[12:15] <gartral> znh: have you installed the restricted drives (if there are any)?
[12:15] <CapaH> *possible
[12:15] <zeeble> chronologically? i dont think that is possible
[12:15] <znh> gartral, it uses FireGL as driver. It's an ATi Mobility 9000
[12:15] <znh> Checking for texture_from_pixmap: not present
[12:15] <mib_7fah5s> how do i change to root?
[12:15] <gartral> znh: install the compiz-fuzion-icon and it has a drop menu to enable/disable indirect rendering
[12:16] <ziroday> CapaH: hmm no gnome-do won't sorry I misunderstood the original request. Not really sure what would sorry, perhaps digging around in ccsm might turn something up
[12:16] <ziroday> !root | mib_7fah5s
[12:16] <znh> gartral, what repo do I have to enable?
[12:16] <cypha> is this not possible?
[12:16] <cypha> to see a history of packages that you've apt-gotten?
[12:16] <gartral> znh: you dont need too
[12:16] <Jyxt> mib_7fah5s: sudo su will change you to root
[12:17] <gartral> !info compiz-fuzion-icon > znh
[12:17] <mib_o78wzgr9> mib_7fah5s    sudo -i    and enter password
 wants you to know: Package compiz-fuzion-icon does not exist in jaunty
[12:17] <gartral> znh: one moment
[12:17] <Boohbah> cypha: /var/log/dpkg.log
[12:17] <znh> gartral, fusion-icon it is
[12:18] <Boohbah> cypha: or 'dpkg --get-selections' to see everything installed
[12:18] <steveccc> hi all - is raid 6 better than raid 5?
[12:18] <gartral> !info fusion_icon | znh
[12:18] <gartral> !info fusion-icon | znh
[12:18] <mib_o78wzgr9> i dont know if any body can help regarding setserial config....i did all seting useing regarding all serial port ....i have 16 serial ports and i test all and they are working in all ports..any how how i can save this settings so when i boot the pc serial setting will not change???
[12:18] <nperera> hi, i'd like to know the proper way to setup security certificates in ubuntu server. should i make them only readable by root? any apache (especially) reverse proxy related but specific to ubuntu would be much appreciated. i have searched but most just discuss individual directives.
[12:19] <cypha> thanks boohbah
[12:19] <init[1]> hey,i just installed Jaunty but i fails to recognise my 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200] (rev a1)
[12:19] <init[1]>  card
[12:19] <init[1]> *it
[12:19] <init[1]> i doesn't even list them on the Hardware drivers
[12:19] <perbl> init[1]: which version of the nvidiadrivers are you using?
[12:19] <init[1]> *it
[12:19] <gartral> init[1]: that card isn't supported by nvidia any more
[12:20] <cypha> i don't see autoremove
[12:20] <cypha> in synapic either
[12:20] <perbl> versions newer than the 173-drivers does not support that chip
[12:20] <init[1]> perbl: no drivers !
[12:20] <ShockF> hi
[12:20] <perbl> init[1]: then get some drivers :)
[12:20] <Boohbah> init[1]: try the open source nvidia driver
[12:20] <perbl> the 173-drivers from nvidia should work fine
[12:20] <init[1]> perbl: but im a slackware user but i have managed to run the latest driver on slackware
[12:20] <gartral> init[1]: you will run into that problem no matter what OS you try and use, your best bet is to either seek out an older envy driver... or upgrade
[12:20] <TimeToChoose> Hi, I currently have a dual boot with ubuntu (64) and windows vista, and my ubuntu partition doesn't work anymore. With the new release of fedora 11, I was wondering what the advantages are of ubuntu before I try to fix/reinstall ubuntu
[12:21] <perbl> init[1]: which version was that?
[12:21] <init[1]> :(
[12:21] <init[1]> 1 sec
[12:21] <perbl> the nvidia-glx-177 and 180-drivers won't work for fx5200
[12:21] <TimeToChoose> !wubi
[12:21] <TimeToChoose> !fedora
[12:22] <cypha> can someone tellm e how to get this autoremove package?
[12:22] <ziroday> TimeToChoose: the best thing to do is try both and see which one you prefer
[12:22] <ShockF> gartral ive used both the live cd and the alternate cd and wubi and everytime i press install i get a blank screen with the cd's but on the alternate cd i get a flashing underscore in the top corner is this right ?
[12:22] <gartral> shokno it certainly is not... but i wouldnt know how to fix that problem..
[12:23] <gartral> ShockF: it certainly is not... but i wouldnt know how to fix that problem..
[12:23] <ShockF> oh right ok
[12:23] <cypha> how do you search the repositories?
[12:23] <init[1]> perbl: this version Version: 173.14.18
[12:23] <ShockF> is there anybody here that does know how my problem could be fixed
[12:23] <yewk> !repos
[12:24] <sipior> cypha: apt-cache search <name>
[12:24] <cypha> great
[12:24] <cypha> thanks
[12:24] <init[1]> i compiled the binary driver in slackware
[12:24] <TimeToChoose> ziroday: I realize that, but installing an operating system especially a linux distro takes a long time to get to a way you like, and if I wanted to do that I would have to try (Ubuntu, Fedora, Mandriva, Redhat, Gentoo... etc) So I was wondering if there were any major differences
[12:24] <init[1]> i worked fine for me!
[12:24] <init[1]> *it
[12:24] <gartral> cypha: apt-cache search <package name> from terminal, or use gksu synaptic for a GUI
[12:24] <cypha> no results for autoremove
[12:24] <cypha> who told me that that existed
[12:25] <yewk> cyp
[12:25] <gartral> TimeToChoose: theres a few minor differences, mainly, Ubuntu has the widest support base of almost any OS aside from fedora
[12:25] <sipior> cypha: autoremove isn't a package, it's an action taken by the package manager. what were you trying to do?
[12:25] <ziroday> TimeToChoose: right, this question is really much better suited to #ubuntu-offtopic where you'll get a better response. Also seperate /home partitions may be a way to go
[12:25] <cypha> i was trying to remove ggl-qt
[12:25] <cypha> i downloaded it, and then got the kde one afterwards
[12:25] <cypha> i mean gtk one afterwards
[12:26] <gartral> sudo apt-get remove --force ggl-qt does nothing?
[12:26] <cypha> and after trying to remove the package, it didn't actually remove the install
[12:26] <ShockF> gartal would you reccomend that i try a different distro of linux and see if that works
[12:26] <yewk> TimeToChoose: Geographical.  One word.  That's what.  There are more local ubuntu support groups than any other flavor I've seen.
[12:26] <gartral> cypha: sudo apt-get remove --force ggl-qt does nothing?
[12:26] <cypha> --force is not understood
[12:27] <gartral> ShockF: Ima gonna get flammed for this, but, for safty of drive perposes... try knoppix.. if that won't run foirany reason... you are stuck.
[12:27] <sipior> cypha: try sudo apt-get purge ggl-qt
[12:27] <cypha> tried that
[12:27] <Jyxt> TimeToChoose: well for starters unless your pretty comforatble with linux already...i wouldnt attemp gentoo
[12:27] <cypha> says it can't find it
[12:27] <ShockF> kk gartral thanks
[12:27] <Jyxt> its fairly hardcore for the uninitiated
[12:27] <cypha> but i found it manually in the bin folder or usr folder or something
[12:27] <sipior> cypha: try reinstalling it, and then purging it again.
[12:27] <cypha> someone told me if i deleted the file from there, something would "break"
[12:27] <gartral> shokknoppix is a live-only os... and i use it to test hardare foir compatibility issues..
[12:28] <sipior> cypha: well, probably not, but you mat confuse the package manager.
[12:28] <gartral> ShockF: knoppix is a live-only os... and i use it to test hardare foir compatibility issues..
[12:28] <dalfz> what package do i need to get syntax highlighting in vim on 8.04? (not the vim-full, i don't suppose i need 118mb of stuff to get colors)
[12:28]  * gartral NEEDS NEW PAWS
[12:28] <gartral> oops
[12:28] <cypha> so sudo apt-get install ggl-qt?
[12:28] <ShockF>  gartral any idea where i can download it ?
[12:29] <sipior> cypha: yes, and then apt-get purge
[12:29] <cypha> couldn't find the package
[12:29] <sipior> dalfz: vim-nox would probably work
[12:29] <gartral> shokcheck your PM
[12:29] <Jyxt> knoppix can be installed
[12:29] <Jyxt> but its probably the best liveCD available
[12:29] <Jyxt> for hardware detection etc
[12:29] <dalfz> sipior, it did, thanks
[12:30] <cypha> btw, i may have gotten it originally with synaptic
[12:30] <cypha> and i def tried removing it with terminal
[12:30] <cypha> if that makes a difference
[12:30] <cypha> sipior
[12:31] <sipior> cypha: it shouldn't make a difference, but i certainly don't see the package in the main repositories. check that the package name is correct.
[12:32] <cypha> /usr/bin/ggl-qt %F
[12:32] <cypha> ./usr/bin/ggl-qt %F
[12:32] <perbl> init[1]: right, those will work with the fx5200 chip
[12:33] <perbl> whereas the newer ones, offered in unbuntu 8.10 and 9.04 won't
[12:33] <init[1]> perbl: but why doesn't ubuntu ship it
[12:33] <sipior> cypha: try the package "google-gadgets-qt"
[12:33] <perbl> ubuntu does
[12:33] <perbl> just enable the proprietary drivers
[12:33] <perbl> if you have xorg up, just check under hardware drivers
[12:33] <init[1]> perbl: it doesn't work ! its not even listed in those drivers
[12:33] <gartral> if one were to install Ubuntu onto a C2d Macbook Pro.. would they use the 64 Disk?
[12:34] <init[1]> perbl: i mean proprietary drivers
[12:34] <sipior> gartral: either would be fine
[12:34] <cypha> ok, so how do i remove it again?
[12:34] <TimeToChoose> Ok, would asking what I would have to do do diagnoise my problem be appropriate for this chat room... because if I knew what was wrong and could fix it without reinstalling i think i would just stay with linux
[12:34] <TimeToChoose> excuse me
[12:34] <TimeToChoose> ubuntu
[12:34] <perbl> init[1]: then install them manually
[12:34] <gartral> sipior: 8 gb RAM.. I think I'll go 64
[12:34] <sipior> cypha: apt-get purge
[12:34] <cypha> sipior, how do i properly remove it again?
[12:34] <perbl> just apt-get install nvidia-glx-173 or something like that
[12:35] <perbl> init[1]: enable proprietary drivers first (restricted)
[12:35] <gartral> ShockF: still there?
[12:35] <snoopy>  Can I have some help disabling a network card (forever) ?
[12:35] <sipior> TimeToChoose: simplest just to ask your question, giving us all the data that you have. if someone can help, they probably will :-)
[12:35] <TimeToChoose> Currently when I try to boot to ubuntu I will get the loading screen and then it is just black
[12:35] <cypha> sipior: YOU DID IT MISTER
[12:35] <cypha> thanks
[12:36] <TimeToChoose> It will show the ubuntu logo and loading... then nothing happens
[12:36] <parapanghelescu> so .hi there ...is there anyone familiar with the TOR software ?
[12:36] <gartral> snoopy: blacklist it
[12:36] <TimeToChoose> It happened after I enabled the restricted drivers for my ati video card i believe but I have been without it for about a month now so it is hard to remember
[12:37] <lesshaste> has any nice person made a package to install cuda?
[12:37] <lesshaste> doing it by hand is a royal pain
[12:37] <sipior> TimeToChoose: if you let the machine boot, and then hit "Ctrl-Alt-F1", do you get a console?
[12:37] <lesshaste> at least envyng installs the nvidia drivers for you
[12:37] <cypha> so cairo-dock, awr, and what?
[12:37] <TimeToChoose> never tried
[12:37] <TimeToChoose> what is consoler?
[12:37] <TimeToChoose> terminal?
[12:37] <sipior> TimeToChoose: more or less, yes.
[12:37] <snoopy> gartarl:   do I edit this file?   /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[12:38] <TimeToChoose> and what should I do if I am able to get it... sorry i will try to keep my writing on one line
[12:38] <cypha> Cairo-dock, AWN, and what's the 3rd choice for the mac-look?
[12:39] <sipior> TimeToChoose: i would remove the ati drivers you installed, since you mention that the problem occurred after you added them.
[12:39] <TimeToChoose> sipior: Forgive my ignorance, but how would I do that from terminal
[12:40] <SamOrpheus> hi
[12:40] <parapanghelescu> so ..no one knows some deep information about TOR software ........
[12:40] <sipior> TimeToChoose: i would check /var/log/dpkg.log to get the name of the driver package you installed (unless you remember the name already), and then try "sudo apt-get remove <packagename>"
[12:40] <chetnick> parapanghelescu: what do you want to know?
[12:41] <sipior> parapanghelescu: there are other places to ask; this is generally an ubuntu support channel...
[12:41] <pale> if i reslolve all dependency for specific package from jaunty can i then install it to hardy
[12:42] <parapanghelescu> chetnick > I have a problem .....tor, privoxy and firefox are all installed .....I run firefox and the first page ( home page is displayed ) - after that, browser is not working .....
[12:42] <parapanghelescu> sipior > do you happen to know a support channel for TOR ?
[12:42] <chetnick> pale:  not really, you need to have dependencies installed on hardy too.
[12:43] <sipior> parapanghelescu: i do not. but i'm sure google knows one or two.
[12:43] <bazhang> https://wiki.torproject.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ parapanghelescu
[12:43] <pale> chetnick, but it will work then
[12:43] <Pici> parapanghelescu: #tor in fact, does exist.
[12:43] <parapanghelescu> sipior > thank you .....best support I had so far ;)
[12:43] <parapanghelescu> pici > thank you
[12:43] <noctem> hi
[12:44] <sipior> parapanghelescu: we aim to please :-)
[12:44] <TimeToChoose> sipior: I am going to give it a try
[12:44] <TimeToChoose> wish me lck
[12:44] <TimeToChoose> luck
[12:44] <noctem> can you say me how i install blowfish in xchat !?
[12:44] <harpreet_> is this true? http://blog.taragana.com/index.php/archive/how-to-hack-root-password-in-linux/
[12:44] <pale> chetnick, can one more question, when doing that will i remove all older lib packeage and replace it with new one, or older lib will be there to
[12:44] <cankoy> parapanghelescu: don't use tor from ubuntu repos, they're old.
[12:44] <Pici> !ot | harpreet_
[12:45] <parapanghelescu> bazhang > thanks
[12:45] <parapanghelescu> cankoy > already know that
[12:45] <remington> anybody here can help to get an external monitor working with netmix?
[12:45] <gartral> remington: you mean UNR?
[12:45] <W00d5t0ck> quit
[12:45] <harpreet_> Pici: it is Ubuntu related. I am concerned about the security of my Ubuntu server
[12:45] <sipior> harpreet_: yes, it's true. if you have physical control of a box, proper security is next to impossible.
[12:45] <chetnick> pale: i dont think so, but not sure. Are you installing from source?
[12:46] <bazhang> harpreet_, please chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:46] <Pici> harpreet_: Set a grub password then
[12:46] <sipior> harpreet_: this is not a linux-specific problem, by the way.
[12:46] <pale> chetnick, yes i dont wanna use deb
[12:46] <cypha> how do i get gnome-do docky???
[12:46] <harpreet_> sipior: how
[12:46] <remington> gartral: yes
[12:46] <sipior> harpreet_: sorry? how what?
[12:46] <harpreet_> sipior: how it isnt linux specific?
[12:46] <T-F-K> Hi all, I get a serieus problem, my desktop don't boot, after "GRUB loading, please wait ..." it gives me "Error 17"
[12:47] <harpreet_> Pici: how do i set grub password?
[12:47] <sipior> harpreet_: if you can boot a machine off of a controlled medium, you can modify the on-disk operating system essentially arbitrarily.
[12:48] <pale> chetnick, nothing to lose , i will learn from it if i screw something
[12:48] <pale> chetnick, thx for answers
[12:49] <T-F-K> no idea ???
[12:50] <CapaH> I am running into an annoying situation. I have xbindkeys set using xte to run Alt+F4 -- and this is triggered with Ctrl+Click - however, for some reason when the 'alt f4' executes, control remains clicked, and so it takes me to the terminal as though I had typed: "Ctrl+Alt F4" - I tried "keyup Control_L" and it doesn't seem to do anything. Anyone have any ideas?
[12:50] <sipior> T-F-K: it's generally considered polite to allow folks a few minutes to read and think about the question you just asked. if you don't get a response in fifteen minutes or so, feel free to resubmit, ideally with more information about your problem.
[12:51] <Pici> harpreet_: Setting a grub password:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto#Security
[12:51] <gartral> the caps lock light on my keyboards are stuck on.. state changes ok, but there bright as heck... how do I disable them via software?
[12:51] <T-F-K> sipior, ok I will thanks :)
[12:52] <harpreet_> Pici: thank you
[12:53] <gartral> how can I tell what flashplayer I have installed?
[12:53] <carpii> go to adobe flash website, itll tell you
[12:53] <carpii> http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
[12:53] <sipior> gartral: try the "about:plugins" url in your browser
[12:54] <Jyxt> if your using firefox you can put: about:plugins in the address bar
[12:55] <gartral> sipior: i have about 124 plugins installed
[12:56] <carpii> my god
[12:57] <TFrog> heres a perplexing question.  i run both Ubuntu and Kubuntu on seperate drives with an ati 200m chipset.  the open source driver has no issues running sideport memory only on Ubuntu but if i run sideport only on Kubuntu i get crashes with the Plasma desktop.  if i enable sideport + uma on my laptop the crashes cease.  running generic xorg.conf.  is there a way to disable composite memory in Jaunty's xorg.conf?
[12:57] <carpii> 124?
[12:57] <sipior> gartral: i'm skeptical. in any event, look for "Shockwave Flash" in big, bold letters.
[12:57] <sipior> carpii: i think he's counting each mime type separately :-)
[12:57] <lingaha> thi
[12:57] <gartral> sipior: I have nothing but VLCs flash video plugin >.>
[12:57] <carpii> ah.  :-)
[12:57] <Nabiki> How do I execute a cli php script in 8.04?
[12:58] <carpii> php scriptname.php ?
[12:58] <Nabiki> Hmm...  It does not seem to find the command php.  :/
[12:58] <carpii> locate php
[12:58] <carpii> uh sorry
[12:58] <carpii> 'which php'
[12:58] <carpii> thats a terminal command by the way
[12:59] <Abdulrhman> hey guys
[12:59] <artti> Hi! I have problem with Rhythmbox. It doesn't start anymore. When running in terminal, then there isn't any errors either.
[12:59] <cankoy> carpii: php -f script.php
[12:59] <Abdulrhman> i have problem with my flash plugin
[12:59] <EsbenJacobSloth> Hello
[12:59] <carpii> cankoy, ive never used the -f, and i run cmdline php's a lot
[13:00] <Pici> Nabiki: you need the php-cli package if you intend to run scripts outside of apache
[13:00] <carpii> although, maybe its a ubuntu thing. normally i have seperate binaries for php and php cli
[13:00] <EsbenJacobSloth> I have a really annoying problem: when I install my graphics driver it sets the resolution to one my monitor can't handle
[13:00] <Nabiki> Pici: Thanks.
[13:01] <carpii> what resolution is it setting it to ?
[13:01] <burkmat> My OS appears to have confused itself into thinking the root disk is 100% filled, `df`returning 100% and no new file creation allowed... but it's not even remotely full. I was playing around with mounting --bind and symlinks when it happened - Any ideas?
[13:01] <EsbenJacobSloth> I don't know
[13:01] <gartral> sipior: should I remove the VLC plugin/
[13:01] <carpii> burkmat, maybe some runaway process still has a file handle open, even though youve deleted the file
[13:02] <EsbenJacobSloth> my monitor just says that it's not allowed and that I should set it to 1280x1024
[13:02] <burkmat> carpii, Rebooted... Wouldn't that have fixed it?
[13:02] <sipior> gartral: not necessarily. just install the adobe plugin, i believe they can coexist. if it causes problems, then by all means remove it.
[13:02] <carpii> ah, yes, i would have thought so :p
[13:02] <TFrog> anyone running an ATI 200M Express graphics chipset here?
[13:03] <doodoo> bonjour
[13:03] <doodoo> hello
[13:03] <rameshwo> guys.. how to figure out my graphics card ?
[13:03] <doodoo> ya du monde qui parle français la ?
[13:03] <Koheleth> Bonjour, ça va
[13:03] <Koheleth> !fr
[13:04] <doodoo> ok
[13:04] <Koheleth> parles vous anglais?
[13:04] <indus> rameshwo: u mean which card u have?
[13:05] <EsbenJacobSloth> is there a way to set your desired screen resolution from the terminal?
[13:05] <rameshwo> yes....  indus
[13:05] <DasEi> rameshwo:lspci
[13:05] <carpii> Esben, edit your xorg.conf to dictate what modes your card/monitor supports
[13:05] <indus> rameshwo: chech dmesg i guess
[13:05] <rameshwo> how to know which company or.. size.. so that i can check for drivers...
[13:05] <Koheleth> EsbenJacobSloth: I guess edit a x11 file
[13:05] <rameshwo> ok..
[13:05] <Koheleth> its basically what a gui does
[13:05] <onyx> lspci
[13:05] <DasEi> rameshwo:lspci | grep video
[13:06] <onyx> haha sorry yall
[13:06] <indus> rameshwo: wait
[13:06] <EsbenJacobSloth> hehe, thanks, how do I do that? is there a guide?
[13:06] <EsbenJacobSloth> I'm new to ubuntu
[13:06] <cypha> my gnome-do isn't searching all the files on my computer
[13:06] <cypha> any ideas why?
[13:06] <Koheleth> EsbenJacobSloth: sure check the forums etc
[13:06] <cypha> i have the Files plugin selected
[13:07] <indus> rameshwo: lspci
[13:07] <lingaha> hi I install ubuntu server but how can add user and make the asset home directory from window a computer
[13:07] <rameshwo> indus : ok..
[13:08] <EsbenJacobSloth> alright, thanks you guys.
[13:08] <indus> rameshwo: so which one do u have
[13:08] <roxanna> Can I install Ubuntu Netbook Remix on any laptop? Or is it strictly for netbooks?
[13:08] <Koheleth> EsbenJacobSloth:  why you want to do that anyway
[13:08] <indus> roxanna: good question , the netbook is also a laptop
[13:08] <Pici> !x | EsbenJacobSloth
[13:08] <rameshwo> indus :  sorry.. i'm currently on windwos..  i need to restart and boot to ubuntu
[13:09] <indus> rameshwo: then its easy to find in windows obviuosly
[13:09] <rameshwo> but my comp. is old.. so i  don't think it has good one..
[13:09] <JuJuBee> I am trying to install virtualbox and was getting an error.  Looks like lots of broken things to me...  http://pastebin.com/m6782070e  Can someone take a look and suggest course of action?
[13:09] <rameshwo> how ? indus ?
[13:09] <indus> rameshwo: control panel / system / hardware devices
[13:09] <indus> vga
[13:09] <rameshwo> device manager ? you mean ?
[13:10] <indus> yeah
[13:10] <roxanna> indus: yes it is... so then why do they call netbooks netbooks instead of laptops?
[13:10] <indus> roxanna: marketing nonsense
[13:10] <gartral> how do I copy something to multiple Dirs from one command?
[13:10] <roxanna> indus: haha
[13:10] <indus> :)
[13:10] <indus> roxanna: but wait let me double check
[13:10] <rameshwo> indus : under what should i look ? it's video codecs, video capture devices there....
[13:11] <carpii> gartral, why 1 command?
[13:11] <roxanna> indus: so can I install netbook remix on 'regular' laptops not designated as 'netbook's
[13:11] <onyx> ok people my wlan0 shows Link Quality 14/100 is there a way to make it better
[13:11] <indus> roxanna: wait 1 moment iam checking what a netbook is :)
[13:12] <indus> roxanna: tell me what you have
[13:12] <gartral> carpii: need to manually install the flashplayer plugin to several web browsers at once
[13:12] <gartral> onyx: are you having to retransmit packets?
[13:12] <roxanna> indus: i have a HP Pavilion dv1000 (pretty old but still alive)
[13:13] <indus> roxanna: is that a netbook?
[13:13] <roxanna> indus: i am currently running xubuntu on it...
[13:13] <onyx> gartral: not sure, how can I chack that
[13:13] <roxanna> indus: nope, not a netbook
[13:13] <rameshwo> roxanna : i have 256 mb ram 735 mhz processor..still alive and going strong....
[13:13] <gartral> indus: no, its not a netbook.. its not as powwerful as a netbook
[13:14] <roxanna> gartral: so i should not try installing and/or running netbook remix on it then...?
[13:14] <bening> haloo
[13:14] <gartral> onyx does it take any more time to see your own post in this channel than it does too lift your finger off of the Return key?
[13:14] <CapaH> When you have to specify -display in certain commands, to specify the X display for which the command is to be used -- what do you put there?
[13:14] <gartral> roxanna: it wouldn't hurt anything, no
[13:14] <DasEi> roxanna: more details about specs ? netbook is for eee, especially
[13:15] <Koheleth> rameshwo: with Linux np, forget vista heh :)
[13:15] <indus> roxanna: ok i dont recommend installing it
[13:15] <onyx> gartral: well even if I see 1,3s lag my post is posted on enter up
[13:15] <gartral> DasEi: that's wrong UNR wsa desinged too run on the Dell mini series, and Acer Aspire One serise, the EEE is *just* pwerful enough to work with UNR
[13:15] <indus> roxanna: the unr is optimised for newer power saving chips in netbooks so it may not work correctly on urs
[13:16] <roxanna> My main problem is I recently bought a Dell mini 9 and i have the 64gb runcore ssd and 2gb ram.. but my current laptop is still working smoother overall better than the mini 9...(the netbook is a bit laggy) ok thanx for everyones help... i guess i should have never invested in a netbook
[13:16] <DasEi> thx, gartral
[13:16] <JuJuBee> Can someone give me a hand with http://pastebin.com/m6782070e
[13:16] <gartral> onyx: then your fine, and your drivers just arnt interpreting signal strength, don't worry about it
[13:16] <onyx> gartral: ok thank you
[13:16] <indus> roxanna: which os did your netbook come wwith?
[13:16] <roxanna> gartral & indus: thank you
[13:17] <indus> roxanna: netbook remix should work well on that mini
[13:17] <roxanna> indus: my netbook came with windows xp pro sp3 initially but i recently installed UNR because it started lagging too much.. yeah UNR works way better than the os pre installed
[13:17] <indus> roxanna: and now you want to try it on the old hp? am i right?
[13:18] <roxanna> and I liked the layout of UNR so i was wondering if i could install/run it on my current hp pavillion
[13:18] <roxanna> yeah its old BUT it runs way better than the netbook
[13:18] <indus> roxanna: if it has 512 mb ram its worth a try i think :)
[13:19] <indus> roxanna: i wonder whether it can be installed on a desktop :P
[13:19] <indus> it looks good
[13:19] <roxanna> ok ill try the preview i geuss.. yes i like the layout so much i wouldnt mind it on a desktop
[13:19] <roxanna> ok ill be back
[13:20] <gartral> indus: the dell mini desktops can run UNR... but you need ACPI=OFF at installation
[13:20] <indus> gartral: thanks my friend :) ill keep that in mind. But i dont have a laptop nor do i want to ever own one :)
[13:21] <indus> gartral: so whats with the acpi = off anyway
[13:22] <wWales> using 9.04 on my laptop, when i set resolution to 800x600 the lower 1/3 of my screen gets 'cut off" all other resolutions trough 640x480 to 1440x900 works fine tho
[13:22] <dani_> Hello, I have networking problems. I am on wireless lan, signal is around 70-90%. All internetactivitis is mostly awful slow. Sometimes it takes several minutes to just load a simple page like google. Other times it times out and I have to refresh.
[13:22] <sipior> dani_: can you verify that the problem is not exhibited using a wired network?
[13:23] <gartral> indus: if your computer has a wierd power managment, then Linux might crash on boot... acpi=off turns off the on board power managment, and makes the kernal run the power managment itself, at the cost of some advanced shutdown features like hibernate and sleep
[13:23] <dani_> sipior: yes, the other comp on the lan is wired. Also awful slow.
[13:23] <indus> gartral: isnt the kernel mature enough yet to run hibernate and sleep?
[13:24] <sipior> dani_: so the problem is with your network upstream, not your wireless situation.
[13:24] <indus> gartral: also what is the link between graphics cards and hibernate??
[13:24] <sipior> dani_: do you have any sort of firewall running between the internet and your network?
[13:24] <gartral> indus: in therory, yes, but hibernation takes *forever* without acpi
[13:24] <gartral> indus: at least in my experiences
[13:25] <indus> btw , my cd rom doesnt recognised in jaunty ( this is unrelated)
[13:25] <dani_> sipior: yeah, I guess
[13:25] <wWales> sorry let me rephrase the question; 800x600 cuts off the bottom of my screen, how do i solve it?
[13:25] <indus> i filed bug in lauchpad too
[13:25] <gartral> indus: not really sure, never ran into that problem
[13:25] <sipior> dani_: is the problem recent?
[13:25] <indus> so i have no cd dvd drive in jaunty and therefore cant play any damn thing
[13:26] <indus> so,jaunty i dislike a lot
[13:26] <gartral> indus: how come?
[13:26] <indus> and i dont think they are interested in fixing the bug either'
[13:26] <dani_> sipior: not sure. Both comps are seperately connected to a switch.
[13:26] <Guest32922> Can somebody please tell me how to set up network manager that eth0 and wlan device is not activated at default??
[13:26] <indus> gartral: u know, i have a weird problem with ubuntu confusing my cdrom and harddisk
[13:26] <sipior> dani_: did the problem start recently?
[13:27] <dani_> sipior: yes, quite recent. It might have something to do with the router setup (?)
[13:27] <Appiah_> what do you do when gdm starts up and your monitor says input singal out of range?
[13:27] <gartral> indus: as far as I'm able too tell... it's squarly on Nvidia's shoulders with the Hibernation corruption
[13:27] <indus> gartral: i had to use a lot of boot options to boot live cd in intrepid
[13:27] <sipior> dani_: had something changed with your router setup recently?
[13:27] <gartral> indus: are your CDrom and HDD on the same IDE channel?
[13:27] <indus> gartral: hmm u know i dont know how to check that but maybe yes'
[13:28] <funkyHat> wWales: what do you mean by "cut off" the bottom of the screen is just black?
[13:28] <gartral> indus: sudo lshw | pastebinit (if you have pastebinit)
[13:28] <indus> pastebinit whats that
[13:28] <wWales> funkyhat: i mean the lower part of the screen is "outside" the monitor :)
[13:28] <cankoy> wWales: tried different refresh rate?
[13:28] <gartral> indus sudo apt-get install pastebinit
[13:29] <indus> can i just use pastebin?
[13:29] <gartral> !info pastebinit | indus
[13:29] <gartral> indus: pastebinit makes pastebinning easyer
[13:29] <indus> gartral: oops forgot iam at work now not same system
[13:29] <wWales> cankoy: the nvidia tool lets me choose "auto" or "60" same problem in both
[13:30] <indus> gartral: could you tell me what to check ? i will behome in some time i think
[13:30] <cypherus> I need some help search for and removing files from certain dates.  The format is like this 06-10-2009-08-22-30.avi and the files are in several folders.
[13:30] <gartral> indus: ok, what time do you get off (in GMT 0, if you would) so I know when to get back on
[13:30] <snowrichard> hi
[13:30] <gartral> indus: do a sudo lshw and look for the IDE section...
[13:30] <indus> gartral: 45 min from now i will be online again
[13:31] <snowrichard> having isp problems
[13:31] <indus> gartral: i have this cdrom with some big old wide cable and the HDD connect with SATA
[13:31] <snowrichard> I think my wireless internet transmitter is not working get .10 Mb/s upload on speedtest.net
[13:31] <cankoy> wWales: there's Prefs > Display menu, but I dont know if it works for the proprietary nvidia driver.
[13:31] <indus> gartral: but frankly that cdrom cable says HDD cable i think!
[13:32] <wWales> conkoy: it automagically opens the nvidia tool instead :(
[13:32] <gartral> indus: ok, so there not even the same type, nvm that then...
[13:32] <dani_> sipior: yes some changes were made in the router setup not long ago, but can't remember exactly what. I am trying to connect to the router setup right now, but it sais "connecting to 192.168.80.100" and never finishes
[13:33] <gartral> indus: what mobo is the offending computer running on?
[13:33] <indus> gartral: and i have an error at boot , ata 1 soft reset failed device not ready
[13:33] <indus> gartral: asus amd 690 g chipset
[13:33] <JohnWittle> locale prints out a strange error: locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
[13:33] <gartral> indus: asus... oh...
[13:33] <JohnWittle> Anyone know what it could be?
[13:34] <funkyHat> wWales: what is the actual resolution of your monitor?
[13:34] <indus> gartral: i never had issues with hardy or older either asus or msi
[13:34] <JohnWittle> How do I set my locale to en_GB?
[13:34] <JohnWittle> locale_all, that is.
[13:34] <sipior> dani_: well, the precise changes are probably pretty important, in this case :-) are you sure the ip given is the correct one? does it match your default gateway? (try "route -n" to see)
[13:34] <jirib> hello all
[13:34] <wWales> funkyHat: best is 1440x900 which works just perfectly
[13:34] <raghu125coorg> JohnWittle, run this command dpkg --force-all -i libc6_2.3.6-0ubuntu20_i386.deb
[13:34] <ChatWatch> Hi everyone
[13:35] <ChatWatch> I'm here to keep order in the room and make sure everyone chats nicley :)
[13:35] <wWales> funkyHat: but some things i need to run in 800x600 and then this becomes a problem
[13:35] <wWales> funkyHat: its a laptop monitor using a geforce go 6150 if its any help :) 180.53 nvidia driver
[13:35] <raghu125coorg> JohnWittle, then dpkg-reconfigure locales
[13:35] <gartral> indus: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/20090212
[13:35] <jirib> i found my cell phone (nokia 2630) via hcitool scan but when i try obexftp to access it, on my phone it wants a 'pin' - what is the pin? :) have i to declare it somewhere?
[13:35] <raghu125coorg> JohnWittle, then dpkg-reconfigure locales

[13:38] <raghu125coorg> JohnWittle, then run the second command

[13:39] <ccadmin> hai
[13:39] <ik> Ok wtf?
[13:39] <ChatWatch> indus, cut out the swearing NOW please. Even when masked swearing is not permitted

[13:39] <lesshaste> does this mean I have screwed up my ld.so.conf?
[13:39] <indus> but who the hell are you ? and how am i disrupting ?
[13:40] <indus> is this a joke?
[13:40] <wWales> funkyHat: i can run the resolution in Wine if i emulate a desktop but then its only using 800x600 of my 1440x900 screen, it works as a workaround but id rather use "real" 800x600
[13:40] <Myrtti> indus: no
[13:40] <dani_> sipior: and Default Gateway :  192.168.80.1
[13:40] <arber4444> helolo
[13:40] <apeiron> So I was banned once for saying wtf, but people swearing multiple times is okay?
[13:40] <apeiron> explain plz
[13:40] <cankoy> wWales: check the output of xrandr (though I doubt it will show meaningful output under nvidia)
[13:40] <Myrtti> indus: hold on...

[13:40] <apeiron> mypapit, ....
[13:40] <indus> Myrtti: k
[13:41] <dani_> sipior: route -n said 192.168.0.*... may there be some conflict?
[13:41] <apeiron> ... really?
[13:41] <sipior> indus: i think ChatWatch is confused. best just to let it go, i think.
[13:41] <mypapit> apeiron, relax
[13:41] <apeiron> mypapit, I am relaxed.
[13:41] <indus> sipior: ok but is that a bot?
[13:41] <apeiron> mypapit, I'm quite amused, in fact.
[13:41] <gartral> indus: as soon as my pastebuffer decides to do its job >.<
[13:41] <ChatWatch> apeiron, stop disrupting the chat room NOW please. If you continue, you *will* be dealt with.
[13:42] <apeiron> ChatWatch, ROFL
[13:42] <bazhang> ChatWatch, please stop
[13:42] <mypapit> apeiron, in my place we use it for greeting, though it stands for completely different meaning lol
[13:42] <anodesni> Does anybody know if samsung's ecogreen HDDs have a jumper to set the sata standard to 150?
[13:42] <apeiron> mypapit, wow... really?
[13:42] <sipior> ChatWatch: internet tough guys are amusing, but best in #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:42] <Myrtti> ChatWatch: please join #ubuntu-ops
[13:42] <apeiron> ChatWatch, <ChatWatch> erm, I work across ALL the mIRC networks... I also work in co-operating with ISPs and the central mIRC server to deal with abusers and those who interfear with my work. I suggest you let me back into #perl.
[13:42] <apeiron> ChatWatch, righto, chief
[13:42] <ChatWatch> Myrtti, why? is there a problem in that room?
[13:42] <mypapit> apeiron, yeah.. i know.. btw i'm a licensed ham radio operator.. my callsign is 9w2wtf
[13:42] <mypapit> lol
[13:43] <apeiron> My point is that the ops here are hypocrites regarding the swearing issue.
[13:43] <Myrtti> ChatWatch: no
[13:43] <apeiron> :)
[13:43] <wWales> cankoy: how do i produce an outputfile from xrand?
[13:43] <Myrtti> apeiron: you're entitled to your opinion
[13:43] <sipior> dani_: does your router lie directly between the internet and your network? no other home routers in between?
[13:43] <Myrtti> ChatWatch: please, join.
[13:43] <gartral> indus: that link is out of date, ill return
[13:43] <apeiron> Myrtti, I have actual evidence, thanks.
[13:43] <indus> gartral: ok thanks
[13:43] <mypapit> apeiron, diffrent ops, different issue
[13:43] <cankoy> wWales: the command is xrandr, use terminal
[13:44] <Myrtti> and moving on...
[13:44] <termleech> is the tomcat6 installer from synaptic good in 9.04 or should I follow the howto article on compiling from source I found online
[13:44] <apeiron> mypapit, Different op, same issue. I said what I said that got me banned before, nothing happened.
[13:44] <apeiron> Inconsistent and / or hypocritical.
[13:44] <wWales> cankoy: 800x600        59.0     60.0     72.0
[13:44] <termleech> i can't seem to find a good answer to that question (the article is dated in 2007 so I can't trust the article saying it does't work)
[13:44] <Myrtti> apeiron: this discussion is useless and offtopic here, if you want to discuss it with someone, I'm sure you're familiar about where to do so, not here
[13:45] <cankoy> wWales: do you see 'LVDS connected' in output?
[13:45] <apeiron> Myrtti, you're entitled to your opinion about 'useless'. :)
[13:45] <indus> someone, who is chatwatch??
[13:45] <tsimpson> indus: please just ignore them
[13:45] <bazhang> indus, please ignore it/him
[13:46] <raghu125coorg> termleech, better to download and then do make install
[13:46] <termleech> raghu125coorg: thanks
[13:46] <mattalexx> What's the purpose of ~/.icons? If I put a homemade SVG in there to be used in an application launcher in the panel, am I using the folder correctly?
[13:46] <termleech> raghu125coorg: that's the answer i was looking for
[13:47] <indus> aah ok
[13:47] <artti> Hi! I have problem with Rhythmbox. It doesn't start anymore. When running in terminal, then there isn't any errors either.
[13:47] <wWales> conkoy: its says in nvidia tool signal: LVDS
[13:48] <onyx> Hey same problem like artti
[13:48] <onyx> has
[13:48] <wWales> cankoy: its says Signal: LVDS and Connection: Dual
[13:49] <wWales> cankoy: xrandr output doesnt mention it
[13:49] <Rich> yo
[13:50] <Myrtti> case closed, next
[13:50] <indus> gartral: ok iam headed home now, ill see you in 30 min i hope
[13:50] <felix_> anyone is using a wireless keyboard and mouse?
[13:50] <indus> good bye folks, tata
[13:51] <onyx> felix: I do
[13:51] <felix_> onyx,  which brand? was easy to install?
[13:51] <Myrtti> indus: in any case, even obfuscated swearing is swearing, and we ask you kindly not to do so, as this channel is of many different cultures and ages :-)
[13:51] <cankoy> wWales: using a second monitor?
[13:51] <cankoy> wWales: like dual head?
[13:51] <wWales> cankoy: no just using the laptop monitor
[13:52] <onyx> felix_: well I don't know if it tells you something it's "Medion" and it was auto detected on install
[13:52] <Psykopaten> felix: I use Logitech Cordless desktop,, no configuration at all, and the media works as expected
[13:52] <Demmt> hi
[13:52] <Koheleth> wWales: you welsh?  :)
[13:52] <felix_> Psykopaten, both mouse and keyboard?
[13:53] <dani_> sipior: Allright. D-Link wireless router -internetconnector is connected to LAN4-conn on Allied Telesys. D-Link wireless router LAN3-conn is connected to the wired PC. And the wireless router is wireless connected to this comp. Allied Telesys LAN3-conn is connected to Linksys adapter-Ethernetconn. Linksys adapter Phoneconn is connected to the phone.
[13:53] <wWales> Keoheleth: Im swedish, used to work in wales tho and how i got the nick ;)
[13:53] <Koheleth> lol
[13:54] <Psykopaten> felix: yes.. some older releases of ubuntu (2-3 years ago) didn't autoconfigure my mousebuttons, but now everything works
[13:54] <onyx> artti: did you tried rhythmbox reinstall
[13:55] <wWales> cankoy: thanks for looking into the problem, im afraid ill have to leave for work now tho :(
[13:55] <artti> onyx, several times.
[13:55] <felix_> Psykopaten, im trying to find the exact model (i want to be sure that it works before buying it; if yours works perfect from install i want that one :)
[13:55] <onyx> artti: I have the same problem so if I get something I will tell ya
[13:56] <artti> onyx, okey
[13:56] <felix_> Psykopaten, could you give me exact model name?
[13:57] <Psykopaten> felix: Don't know the keyboard, doesn't say, but the mouse is a Mx700
[13:57] <mattalexx> What's the purpose of ~/.icons? If I put a homemade SVG in there to be used in an application launcher in the panel, am I using the folder correctly?
[13:58] <felix_> Psykopaten, its bloothooth?
[13:58] <dani_> sipior: do you see anything suspicious ?
[13:58] <Psykopaten> usually, the more popular a product is, the more probable that linux distributions detect the products automatically
[13:58] <felix_> Psykopaten, is one of these? http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/keyboards/keyboard_mice_combos/&cl=es,es
[13:59] <Psykopaten> no. standard cordless 4Â 1/2 years old
[13:59] <felix_> Psykopaten, i know, but i tryed tvisto and microsoft and both were unsupported
[14:00] <felix_> Psykopaten, is one of these? http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/keyboards/keyboard_mice_combos/&cl=es,es
[14:00] <sipior> dani_: heh, simple :-) so the problem would seem to be in the D-Link, since network traffic is slow on both wired and wireless nodes. is traffic between the wired and wireless systems slow also?
[14:00] <Psykopaten> ok, I haven't tried any other multi-media keyboards other than that one I have
[14:01] <dani_> sipior: not sure, as I don't move big data between the two comps
[14:02] <dani_> sipior: so there must be something wrong in the router config?
[14:03] <furythor> Where live session stores information for window manager (screen settings) ?
[14:03] <sipior> dani_: i think the best course of action is to find out precisely what your friend did on your router, and then either undo it, or modify it further to eliminate the problem. if your router has a logging capability, try turning it on and see what sort of things come out.
[14:03] <mrvdv> what is the rpm for ssh server for ubuntu
[14:03] <dani_> sipior: alright, thanks so far
[14:03] <bazhang> mrvdv, there is no rpm
[14:03] <sipior> dani_: no trouble, good luck sorting things out
[14:03] <mrvdv> cause i cant see ssh anywhere
[14:04] <onyx> artti: sudo rhythmbox  works for me
[14:04] <raghu125coorg> mrvdv apt-get install ssh
[14:04] <jpablanche> how to join i other room?
[14:04] <mrvdv> says its not there
[14:04] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto mrvdv
[14:04] <jpablanche> i want to join in freebsd room
[14:05] <raghu125coorg> mrvdv apt-cache search ssh
[14:05] <jpablanche> what comman shoul i type?
[14:05] <bazhang> jpablanche, /j #channelname
[14:05] <ShazbotMcNasty> quick question, in conky I'm trying to make it so it only displays my external hard drive when it's mounted - but if I use the ${if_existing /media/nameO'Disk} it doesn't show up
[14:05] <mrvdv> cant see nothing about ssh server
[14:05] <jpablanche> thanks @ bazhang
[14:06] <raghu125coorg> mrvdv what it says
[14:06] <jpablanche> but there is registration required?
[14:06] <ShazbotMcNasty> I was wondering though - the drive has two words, separated with a space, do you think that is why it doesn't work?
[14:06] <bazhang> jpablanche, you're welcome :)
[14:06] <bazhang> !register | jpablanche
[14:06] <jpablanche> how to regiter
[14:06] <dam0> how can i test if my laptop is running to hot?
[14:06] <noukist> hello ubuntu people ?
[14:06] <noukist> :)
[14:06] <artti> onyx, well using sudo everytime is not my goal
[14:06] <mrvdv> raghu125coorg just a bunch of files but nothing about ssh
[14:07] <jpablanche> !register
[14:07] <mrvdv> raghu125coorg just a bunch of files but nothing about ssh
[14:07] <Psykopaten> ShazbotMcNasty: try encapsulating the "/dev/..."
[14:07] <bazhang> jpablanche, /j #freenode for help
[14:07] <harahauk> anyone else getting segfault from mount.cifs?
[14:07] <onyx> artti: yeah I know that
[14:07] <raghu125coorg> mrvdv apt-get install openssh
[14:08] <jpablanche> alright thank you people
[14:08] <ShazbotMcNasty> Psykopaten, you mean just put it in quotations?
[14:08] <mrvdv> cant find package
[14:08] <Psykopaten> ShazbotMcNasty: yes
[14:08] <harahauk> can anyone running jaunty try running "mount.cifs" in their terminal with no other arguments? segfault?
[14:09] <jakkor> Hi guys can you help me with a problem, i have an ubuntu hardy installation now about 3 days the system crashed it tried fixing it but no luck, it says that the X server has crashed due to an internal error. What can i do ? if i cannot fix it is there a chance to save my data?
[14:09] <schwarz_p> I wrote a short history of Linux : http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/1075783/linuxgesch_en.txt
[14:09] <schwarz_p> Should be good for noobs
[14:09] <bazhang> schwarz_p, please dont paste here
[14:10] <celalornek> hello
[14:10] <schwarz_p> bazhang, what did I do wrong?
[14:10] <eurythmia> harahauk, I can confirm that.
[14:10] <raghu125coorg> mrvdv, any luck
[14:10] <bazhang> schwarz_p, this is ubuntu support only; chat in #ubuntu-offtopic thanks
[14:11] <schwarz_p> bazhang: ok
[14:11] <sipior> harahauk: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/357994
[14:11] <gartral> where do I put manually installed plugins in the .mozilla folder to have them.. well.. work?
[14:11] <furythor> where live session stores information for "System>Preferences>Screen Resolution" ?
[14:11] <harahauk> eurythmia: ok thanks:) i guess I'll stay away from cifs till its fixed
[14:11] <ShazbotMcNasty> Psykopaten, it didn't work.
[14:12] <raghu125coorg> mrvdv, any luck
[14:12] <Psykopaten> single quoutes then ''?
[14:12] <mrvdv> no
[14:12] <mrvdv> cant find package
[14:12] <raghu125coorg> mrvdv, how did you install ubuntu? which version? have you eanbled source list?
[14:12] <eurythmia> harahauk, it may just be an issue with the way the arguments are handled (if it's looking for an argument that's not there, and the arguments aren't handled properly, then when the array is indexed, it will segfault)
[14:12] <raghu125coorg> mrvdv, do apt-get update
[14:12] <mrvdv> 9.02 or whatever it is
[14:12] <mrvdv> its doing a update now but i cant see nothing to do with ssh in it
[14:12] <eurythmia> harahauk, is there some other behaviour that you're experiencing that you hoped could be explained by that?
[14:12] <harahauk> eurythmia: true, but it also segfaults on a share i had, forced me to reboot a server to resolve the issue
[14:13] <ShazbotMcNasty> neh - still didn't work.
[14:13] <mattalexx> What's the purpose of ~/.icons? If I put a homemade SVG in there to be used in an application launcher in the panel, am I using the folder correctly?
[14:13] <eurythmia> harahauk, ah. that may be a different issue.
[14:13] <jpablanche> after registering how to login?
[14:13] <eurythmia> harahauk, hold on a moment.
[14:13] <Psykopaten> ShazbotMcNasty: what was the full command
[14:13] <harahauk> eurythmia: yeah, if cifs crashes i cant "sudo umount -f sharename", only option afaik is reboot
[14:13] <harahauk> ok :)
[14:14] <ShazbotMcNasty> External $alignc ${fs_used /media/Big TB} / ${fs_size /media/Big TB} $alignr ${fs_free_perc /media/Big TB}%

[14:14] <blackghost> any one can help me > ubuntu dosn't manage my NC and desktop-effects is not working
[14:14] <blackghost> plz
[14:15] <pringrim> hey people, how to run a command with low priority possible? I tried nice + perl /home/user/script.pl... but it say "nice: +1: No such file or directory"
[14:16] <Psykopaten> ShazbotMcNasty: ${fs_used "/media/Big TB"} / ${fs_size  "/media/Big TB"} $alignr ${fs_free_perc "/media/Big TB"}%${fs_bar "/media/Big TB"} this doesn't work?
[14:16] <raghu125coorg> mrvdv, is update process complete?
[14:16] <raghu125coorg> mrvdv now do apt-get install ssh
[14:16] <ShazbotMcNasty> that works - but if I put the ${if_existing /media/Big TB} it doesn't
[14:16] <ShazbotMcNasty> it acts like it's not mounted.
[14:17] <blackghost> any one can help me > ubuntu dosn't manage my NC and desktop-effects is not working
[14:17] <sipior> pringrim: nice -n 5 perl ... (or whatever priority change you want instead of 5)
[14:17] <sipior> pringrim: leaving off the -n switch defaults to "10"
[14:17] <Psykopaten> ShazbotMcNasty: sorry, I think IÃ'm out of ideas
[14:17] <pringrim> sipior, hmm I tried -n19 << this is mos low possible? ps: I'm not the router
[14:17] <eurythmia> harahauk, try running the following: strace -o mount.cifs_strace.log -f -i -e verbose=all -s 256 -tt <your mount command>
[14:18] <ShazbotMcNasty> meh - thanks for tryin' :)
[14:18] <pringrim> most*
[14:18] <pringrim> oops
[14:18] <pringrim> " -n 19 "
[14:18] <sipior> pringrim: yes, that's the lowest favourable scheduling
[14:19] <eurythmia> harahauk, that will trace the run (with LOTS of output to a logfile) and it will try mounting the share. From there, we may be able to tell what's causing the segfault.
[14:19] <sipior> least favourable, rather
[14:19] <bettytee> trying touse the usb startup disk creator on a 1gb usb pen with the new version of ubuntu but the allow changes to be saved option seems to be grayed out any reason why???/
[14:19] <pirx> hi! if i want to keep track on (security) updates for ubuntu (and debian), which site should i keep an eye on?
[14:19] <blackghost> any one can help me > ubuntu dosn't manage my NC and desktop-effects is not working
[14:20] <ZykoticK9> blackghost, what does "NC" stand for?
[14:20] <blackghost> Network Card
[14:21] <blackghost> i got hp nx6120 with intel 915 MB
[14:21] <eurythmia> harahauk, it seems like the no args segfault is a known bug: Bug#529980: /sbin/mount.cifs: Segmentation fault while running "mount.cifs"
[14:21] <furythor> I have problem, my live session does recognize my screen just exactly properly, however after I do install graphics driver, it does not... now I am wondering that is there some place where live session stores information about my screen so I could copy and later paste it so my screen would work properly.
[14:21] <harahauk> eurythmia: thanks, i will try it later and try to analyze the output. if i'm clueless I'll ask for help again :) but right now im gonna install fuse to be sure the process can be killed, might sacreifice some speed over cifs, but i wont have to reboot ;)
[14:21] <pringrim> sipior, hmm work fine now, but if I request it from a script the proccess still using 90%+ of cpu
[14:21] <artti> Problem: Rhythmbox-WARNING **: Unable to grab media player keys: Could not get owner of name 'org.gnome.SettingsDaemon': no such name
[14:22] <raghu125coorg> blackghost, what si the problem?
[14:22] <eurythmia> harahauk, :) ... I'll /msg you my contact info in case you need any more help later.
[14:22] <harahauk> eurythmia: awesome =) thanks again
[14:23] <eurythmia> harahauk, no problem. I hope I can help you figure it out :)
[14:23] <sipior> pringrim: niceness is not the same as processor usage. if a low priority task is the only one available to run, it will consume a large fraction of the cpu time (since it's not competing with anything else).
[14:23] <pringrim> sipior, exec script.sh and content is comenthing like it: " nice -n 19 perl $script_DIR/script.pl "
[14:23] <blackghost> i use ubun tu 8.10 ,, ubuntu dosn't manage my network card and i cant enable  desktop effects
[14:23] <pringrim> somenthing*
[14:24] <Houba1986> hey, i'm trying to edit my xorg.conf, and it used to work fine, but now it doesn't. when i type sudo nano xorg.conf, it brings me up a blank, but in the X11 folder, i have lots of files xorg.conf.#### but no original xorg.conf, which should i edit?
[14:24] <pringrim> sipior, no limit of cpu usage is configured by user I think
[14:24] <pringrim> per user
[14:24] <sipior> pringrim: not via nice
[14:24] <raghu125coorg> blackghost, run $lspci
[14:25] <raghu125coorg> blackghost, and see your lan card detected
[14:25] <pringrim> sipior, any solution for my problem? :~~~
[14:25] <sipior> pringrim: well, what's the problem, exactly? it seems to be doing what you told it to do.
[14:26] <thiebaude> Houba1986: try sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[14:26] <blackghost> yes
[14:26] <ZykoticK9> blackghost, what do you mean by "manage"?  does it say something like eth0 is "Not Managed" in the Network config icon?
[14:26] <blackghost> its detected
[14:26] <ShKoDrAnI> question..is it possible to get the updates for ubuntu on usb to install on a pc that has no internet connection?
[14:26] <blackghost> yes <ZykoticK9>
[14:26] <pringrim> confirmed sipior! I just run the command outsite the script and the usage was like 0 (zero)
[14:26] <blackghost> it like this
[14:27] <ZykoticK9> blackghost, did you try and set a static ip?
[14:27] <blackghost> device un managed
[14:27] <lianimator> what libs do I need to install to make skype video work?
[14:27] <raghu125coorg> Houba1986, why cant you dpkg-reconfigure
[14:27] <Houba1986> thiebaude: same thing, brings up a blank. i want to enable direct rendering and compositing in xorg.conf, so how would i do that? i have the lines im supposed to add to xorg.conf, but i dont have an original xorg.conf, just a lot of files xorg.conf.####
[14:27] <blackghost> i did
[14:27] <pringrim> the problem occur only from script
[14:27] <raghu125coorg> edit /etc/network/interface
[14:27] <pringrim> it's was ignored?
[14:27] <sipior> pringrim: i'm clearly not getting what you're trying to do, and what results you expect. is there a reason you're running the script via nice if you're the only one on the system?
[14:27] <ZykoticK9> lianimator, no libs are usually required for skype video - works out of the box for me?
[14:27] <blackghost> its connected to lan and am using it now
[14:27] <raghu125coorg> blackghost,  edit /etc/network/interface
[14:27] <blackghost> but i cant see it
[14:28] <ShKoDrAnI> is it possible to get the updates for ubuntu on usb to install on a pc that has no internet connection?
[14:28] <lianimator> ZykoticK9: I noticed that when I install eclipse from the repo, it was working.. do you have eclipse?
[14:28] <ShKoDrAnI> any please
[14:28] <pringrim> sipior, ok lets me try explain better my situation..
[14:28] <ZykoticK9> blackghost, if you've set a static IP then NetworkManager isn't Managing you nic - you are...
[14:28] <raghu125coorg> blackghost, run this as sudo or root
[14:28] <thiebaude> Houba1986: can you copy and paste what you have into xorg.conf(into the blank xorg.conf) and then save it
[14:28] <sipior> pringrim: also, how are you invoking the command in the script?
[14:28] <Houba1986> raghu125coorg: what do you mean? i have the lines i want to add to xorg.conf, but all i have is what i think is backup files, i don't have the original xorg.conf file
[14:28] <ZykoticK9> lianimator, no eclipse for me
[14:29] <cankoy> Houba1986: try to salvage the most recent xorg.conf backup.
[14:29] <raghu125coorg> Houba1986, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg generates new file for you
[14:29] <helo> what is the best open source fps?
[14:30] <helo> preferably with open (or at least beer-free) media?
[14:30] <sipior> helo: glxgears
[14:30] <blackghost> nothing in  /etc/network/interface
[14:31] <Psykopaten> blackghost: /etc/network/interfaces
[14:31] <raghu125coorg> blackghost, what files do you have under  /etc/network
[14:31] <pringrim> sipior, I have one small shell accont to run my eggdrop. My bot run a tcl that execute this command one time per day: " exec /home/user/script.sh " and the contect of this script is somenthing like it: " nice -n 19 perl $PISG_DIR/pisg.pl ". Right, if I just run the command nice directly in terminal, all run fine with no cpu abuse, but from script still getting 90% or more cpu usage.
[14:31] <raghu125coorg> blackghost, if you have interface then open the file and add these lines
 thats what am talking about,, its working but its not managed by networkmanager
[14:32] <ZykoticK9> helo, check out OpenArena for one (it's basically OpenSource Quake 3)
[14:32] <Nehyx> I am thinking about upgrade my filesystem to ext4, it's secure that update? will my ubuntu works good?
[14:32] <ZykoticK9> blackghost, if you've set a static IP then this is working as designed
[14:33] <pringrim> sipior, what I'm doing wrong?
[14:33] <blackghost> interfaces under /etc/network
[14:33] <Nehyx> !ext4 | Nehyx
[14:33] <Appiah_> I installed a language pack for gnome and all my application is in another language , execpt gimp it's still in english ,how can i change that?
[14:33] <pringrim> account
 : yah but when its working by DHCP i got the same
[14:33] <cankoy> furythor: why do install graphics driver, when it's already working correctly?
[14:33] <ShKoDrAnI> is it possible to get the updates for ubuntu on usb to install on a pc that has no internet connection?
[14:34] <haffe> Yes.
[14:34] <haffe> Se apt on cdrom.
[14:34] <raghu125coorg> blackghost, is it wireless card?
[14:34] <scunizi> !aptoncd | ShKoDrAnI
[14:34] <blackghost> no
[14:34] <blackghost> the wi-Fi card working good
[14:35] <FSHero> Hello: Is it possible to run 'privileged' programs without using sudo?
[14:35] <ShKoDrAnI> scunizi: that would be for a Cd/Dvd purpose right?
[14:36] <FSHero> Because I want to be able to run "sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart" without using sudo, so people using my guest user can run the command.
[14:36] <Snake007uk> hey guys what is the best recommened cheap VGA card that works with compiz etc... no drivers issues is 100% compatible with ubuntu
[14:36] <Snake007uk> ideally slim
[14:36] <Snake007uk> as its for a mini-itx
[14:36] <scunizi> ShKoDrAnI: yes.. but once the packages are downloaded you can probably copy them across to a usb key.. or just download what you need from packages.ubuntu.com
[14:37] <sipior> pringrim: try running nice at a higher level (nice exec foo.sh...) i imagine nice is setting a value which is lost once the shell spawned by your script vanishes.
[14:37] <furythor> there is that monitors database in /usr/share/apps//guidance how know that which monitor from list is mine ?
[14:37] <ShKoDrAnI> scunizi: do u have to be in ubuntu for APTonCD?
[14:38] <scunizi> ShKoDrAnI: not sure I've never used it.
[14:38] <blackghost> raghu125coorg> any thing
[14:39] <EwanT> Hey, can the Ubuntu install disk be used more than once?
[14:39] <ShKoDrAnI> scunizi: thanks
[14:39] <ZykoticK9> ShKoDrAnI, you have to be in Ubuntu - it basically makes and APT image of the system you're running it on and copies it to the CD - then you can use the CD on the offline system.
[14:39] <scunizi> EwanT: as many times as you want.. you can even copy it and pass it around..
[14:39] <EwanT> Awesome, thanks.
[14:40] <ShKoDrAnI> ZykoticK9: thats right, i was lookin at the website its for ubuntu
[14:40] <ShKoDrAnI> but the thing is that the pc that has internet its on XP
[14:40] <norpan111> Wow..
[14:40] <mr_claus_> hi, anybody can tell me where i can find the diff.gz of the mainline kernel builds?
[14:40] <ShKoDrAnI> is there a different way to get the updates/app
[14:40] <ShKoDrAnI> ?
[14:41] <ricardoromao> ShKoDrAnI, how you do this today ?
[14:41] <ShKoDrAnI> what u mean?
[14:41] <ZykoticK9> ShKoDrAnI, you could manually download the DEB files and install them via point-click or command line - but you'll run into dependency issues on the updates I'm sure.
[14:41] <ShKoDrAnI> how have i done till now?
[14:42] <ricardoromao> ShKoDrAnI, yep
[14:42] <ShKoDrAnI> well haven't done any yet
[14:42] <ShKoDrAnI> just got ubuntu installed lately
[14:43] <Snake007uk> hey guys what is the best recommened cheap VGA card that works with compiz etc... no drivers issues is 100% compatible with ubuntu, ideally slim
[14:43] <scunizi> ShKoDrAnI: you'd think that there would be an easy way to do this.  It would be a great help for an administrator of numerous machines.  Maybe by creating your own mirror and grabbing the files from there.
[14:44] <ShKoDrAnI> scunizi: that would i would thought as well
[14:44] <scunizi> Snake007uk: nvidia .. check out newegg.com for deals
[14:44] <cankoy> ShKoDrAnI: I suggest you borrow the internet connection from XP just for the updates, or enable Internet Connection Sharing on XP if both computers are on a LAN.
[14:44] <supernifty> hey all...
[14:45] <ShKoDrAnI> ZykoticK9: the DEB file would have the the updates right
[14:45] <ShKoDrAnI> ?
[14:45] <ZykoticK9> Snake007uk, i don't think the card you're asking for exists.  I have always had great luck with Nvidia cards under linux - but I'm not sure that you could call them "cheap".  Good luck.
[14:45] <ShKoDrAnI> all the*
[14:45] <supernifty> I have a T60 thinkpad, and ubuntu is not detecting the wired lan card...
[14:45] <Snake007uk> sorry
[14:45] <supernifty> any suggestions on where I could getthe driver?
[14:45] <Snake007uk> £50
[14:46] <ZykoticK9> ShKoDrAnI, it's not a DEB file, it "files" one for each update - it would be a nightmare to try and download them individually, and you'd have no idea what order to install them in.  I think you'll have to get the system online - in order to update properly.
[14:46] <detrate> I have a dual core computer that I've tried different harddrives, reinstalled, freememtest86'd it and it's still crashing on high CPU loads.  It doesn't appear to be overheaing... but I'm led to believe the processor is the cause.  How can I troubleshoot this?
[14:46] <detrate> running jaunty but I've had the same problem since 8.04
[14:46] <buch> Hi there guys.. Hmm i have a problem with my onboard sound driver - anyone have experience with that?
[14:47] <ringo999> anybody using ubuntu with macbook and an international keyboard, how did you get it to work?
[14:47] <ricardoromao> buch, whats is your MB ?
[14:48] <ShKoDrAnI> ZykoticK9: i see, thanks
[14:48] <buch> riccardorromao http://uk.ts.fujitsu.com/rl/servicesupport/techsupport/consumer/MediaCenter/Scaleo%20600/Scaleo%20600.htm im pretty sure this is it
[14:50] <mrvdv> still cant get sshd to work even though i did an update
[14:50] <ha1331_> any ideas why my ubuntu 9.04 desktop stopped extrackting rar's? I can start the extractions but for some odd reason it doesn't extract avi files.
[14:50] <sipior> mrvdv: you have openssh-server installed?
[14:51] <jnod> hi, i have a problem with my laptop, i am using ubuntu 9.04
[14:51] <norpan111> HELLO
[14:51] <norpan111> jnod tell me your problem
[14:51] <jnod> the problem is that when i copy from usb hard disk to sata internal hard disk there's much overhead
[14:51] <jnod> and the system become slow
[14:52] <jnod> its an amd64 install
[14:52] <frostburn> ha1331, you need to have rar installed as well
[14:52] <ugliefrog> I use to get update notification but since 9.04 no more update notification i have to hit update manger manulally...bug? or is there a fix
[14:52] <frostburn> jnod, define slow? what's the load average during the transfer?
[14:52] <jnod> yes, right, wait
[14:52] <Nehyx> ugliefrog: I have your problem too, I think it's the "new notification system"
[14:53] <d0n> hallo
[14:53] <d0n> zum ersten mal in einem irc chat ^
[14:53] <cdavis> Anyone know of a repo that has Bacula > 3.0 available?
[14:53] <hoo-hah> hi guys. i accidentally deleted /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf. Apt file shows that it's from dhcp3-client package. However, apt-get install --reinstall dhcp3-client doesn't generated that particular config. How would I resolve that?
[14:53] <ugliefrog> Nehyx: Whats the secret fix :)
[14:53] <jnod> top - 15:53:29 up 9 min,  5 users,  load average: 0.94, 0.63, 0.37
[14:53] <hoo-hah> *generate
[14:54] <jnod> frostburn: after 10 seconds of dd if=/dev/zero of=/internal/sda/ext4/partition
[14:54] <jnod> frostburn: load average: 0.94, 0.63, 0.37
[14:54] <Nehyx> ugliefrog: I have got automatic update, so, it fixes all
[14:55] <ringo999> hey folks, would anybody please try to help with getting my keyboard to work on german macbook? I've pretty much tried all the different models/layout combinations, it's quite anoying..
[14:55] <ringo999> i can use "xev" and see that all the keys work, but how to find the correct settings?
[14:55] <frostburn> jnod, i'm not too familiar with ext4, but your load averages seem on target
[14:56] <Nehyx> ugliefrog: gconftool -s --type bool /apps/update-notifier/auto_launch false
[14:56] <Nehyx> use that
[14:56] <jnod> frostburn: it work also on jfs ext3 and others
[14:56] <jnod> frostburn: i think is not related with ext4
[14:57] <jnod> frostburn: also when dd to swap (off) space
[14:57] <ugliefrog> Nehyx: OK done...now its automatic?
[14:57] <sipior> hoo-hah: unless you have a setup which you've spent some time configuring, you might see if an empty configuration file is sufficient. just "sudo touch /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf" and see if it works. there's also a complete sample file in the man page: man 5 dhclient.conf. if nothing else, remove the package and reinstall.
[14:57] <Nehyx> ugliefrog: no, now you will recibe notifications
[14:57] <hoo-hah> nvm. I'd needed to apt-get --purge remove the package, and install --reinstall to get the vanilla confs back
[14:57] <Nehyx> ugliefrog: like in version 8.10 ^_^
[14:57] <norpan111> D best irc client for ubuntu? i find xchat very wierd
[14:58] <ugliefrog> Nehyx: Sweet thats what i needed... :) thank you
[14:58] <norpan111> and irssi is just terminal based?
[14:58] <chetnick> norpan111: irssi
[14:58] <scunizi> norpan111: what do you find weird about it?
[14:58] <TDT> Hey all, I'm not sure how well this is known already - but with the ssh updates, scp doesn't appear to b working, I symlinked the ssh2 to where it's looking, but the operations just hang - There's more than that broken at this point, but is there somethign Im missing on the whole ssh2 thing that just happened in the past 48 hours or so?
[14:58] <AGA> where can i dowlnoad slackware
[14:58] <Nehyx> ugliefrog: no problem ;)
[14:58] <norpan111> scunizi well, the text is wierd, sometimes i cant see nicknames etc
[14:59] <norpan111> scunizi its just acting wierd
[14:59] <scunizi> norpan111: did you install xchat-gnome or xchat
[14:59] <norpan111> esp with compiz enabled
[14:59] <n0wje> Has anyone had a boot speed issue with 9.04 form power button to desktop? It takes about 2.33sec to boot for me. I have an AMD64 3200+ processor and 1.5GB memory, Two SATA HD's. With any other Distro and Prior Ubuntu releases I don't have the issue. I tried to look in the forums and Howto's  no luck . I think it is something in the Kernel. any Idea's?
[14:59] <norpan111> scunizi i installed it from "add/remove apps" so i think its xchat-gnome
[14:59] <chetnick> norpan111: there is nothing wierd about xchat, it's you that did not get used to it. Try kvirc if you want nice GUI. If you want the best irc client then try irssi.
[14:59] <scunizi> norpan111: go to system/admin/synaptic package manager and uninstall that one and install xchat..
[15:00] <pringrim> sipior, work fine now, the correct way is: exec nice -n 19 command, my fault tried nice first. Thank you!
[15:00] <jnod> anybody can help me ?
[15:00] <AGA> whwew can i download slackware?~?~?~??
[15:00] <norpan111> chetnick well xchat is not wierd, but its behavior is very wierd on my computer, think its compiz related
[15:00] <Chousuke> n0wje: how is booting in 2.33 seconds an issue? :P
[15:00] <civixier> Hi! I am using xmms2 via the terminal, and I love it. But I would like a window on my desktop as well now. How do I get that?
[15:00] <TDT> AGA: Go google it please, that question is pretty easy to answer by just googling it.
[15:00] <sipior> AGA: their web site would be a good bet.
[15:01] <chetnick> norpan111: that might be. Try out some others ... and see how you like them.
[15:01] <norpan111> scunizi oh so i should not have xchat-gnome then?
[15:01] <AGA> i dont understand how to download it?~
[15:01] <scunizi> norpan111: there.. are... differences
[15:01] <lysapp> Checkout my site http://www.lysapp.tk
[15:01] <ascheel> Does anybody have any kind of timeline for 2.6.30 kernel to hit the Ubuntu repositories?
[15:01] <scunizi> AGA: this isn't a slackware help channel
[15:01] <norpan111> scunizi ok, i will uninstall xchat-gnome and just install xchat then
[15:01] <norpan111> Thanks!
[15:01] <norpan111> Bye
[15:01] <AGA> and than ,where is the problem?
[15:02] <ascheel> norpan111: if you want a better IRC client, use 'irssi'
[15:02] <TDT> Has anyone else had issues with SSH since the recent updates?
[15:02] <ascheel> TDT, what issues?
[15:02] <AGA> i dont understand this:ftp://ftp.unina.it/pub/linux/distributions/slackware/
[15:02] <scunizi> ascheel: he's gone.. and you're right. irssi with screen is hard to beat
[15:02] <norpan111> ascheel well isnt that just terminal based?
[15:02] <aluno> aluno
[15:02] <n0wje> Well with 8.04 it takes about 20 sec from button to desktop. It may not be an issue but it bugs me. What would change and they claim about boot speeds. 17 sec.
[15:03] <ascheel> norpan111, it is terminal based.  Nothing wrong with terminal, though.
[15:03] <scunizi> norpan111: once you get use to irssi it's tough to use anythign else
[15:03] <norpan111> ascheel i just prefer mirc/xchat gui =)
[15:03] <TDT> ascheel: A few, for example, scp hanging on sending stuff, the requirement to symlink ssh2 from /usr/bin to /usr/local/bin.
[15:03] <AGA> i have do download all the files step by step??
[15:03] <ascheel> norpan111: to each their own
[15:03] <norpan111> Thanks anyway for the tip.
[15:03] <thiebaude> norpan111: yea, irssi is good
[15:03] <After_of_death> buenas!
[15:03] <norpan111> I will try irssi
[15:03] <ascheel> AGA, this is #Ubuntu, not #slackware.  :)
[15:04] <norpan111> Bye
[15:04] <gartral> how do I tell IRSSI too connect too a room on a different server after I have connected too said server?
[15:05] <ZykoticK9> AGA, (repeat what everyone has said about this not being slackware support) BUT there is an ISO CD or DVD image for Slackware
[15:05] <ascheel> to/two/too, but I digress.  :)  /join #channel_name
[15:05] <scunizi> gartral: /j #<room>
[15:06] <gartral> scunizi: it's still joining freenode room, im connected too freenode AND oftc.net... id'e like to join a room in the latter
[15:06] <ascheel> gartral, I think Ctrl-X switches servers you're connected to
[15:06] <scunizi> gartral: you have to switch to that server then issue the command to join the channel.
[15:07] <jnod> how to know the kernel module usd by my sata drive, if any ?
[15:07] <jnod> s/usd/used/
[15:07] <After_of_death> spain? speak
[15:08] <tms__> Hi, I have a problem with evolution, when I try to use the spelling check the evolution close, Do you know what is the problem?
[15:08] <Nehyx> !spanish | After_of_death
[15:08] <gartral> thank you
[15:08] <ascheel> jnod, please elaborate.
[15:08] <After_of_death> Nehyx|  thank you
[15:08] <Nehyx> After_of_death: no problem
[15:08] <frostburn> tms__, i'm not aware of that issue, but you may wish to run evolution from the commandline to see any error/debug output
[15:08] <jnod> ascheel: i have a problem with my sata drive
[15:09] <ascheel> jnod, what problems?
[15:09] <jnod> ascheel: its sucks cpu
[15:09] <gartral> where do I put manually installed plugins in the .mozilla folder to have them.. well.. work?
[15:09] <tms__> Well I check the debug and I don't have nothing ** (evolution:9255): DEBUG: MAIL SERVER: Count changed: 0
[15:09] <ascheel> what is the process that's using the CPU?  You might also have a failing drive (potentially, but don't look too far into that yet)
[15:09] <larsaaAA> Hi, anyone know if I can edit the /boot/config-2.6.24-24-generic directly, or do I have to edit grub config?
[15:10] <jnod> ascheel: i have buyed a new (same vendor) hard drive, i think it works fine
[15:10] <sebsebseb> hi
[15:10] <thiebaude> sebsebseb: howdy
[15:10] <ascheel> hi there, sebsebseb.
[15:10] <jnod> ascheel: it become slow also when i try to mkfs.ext3
[15:10] <sipior> larsaaAA: that config file is the one used to *build* the kernel. changing it will have no effect.
[15:10] <sipior> larsaaAA: edit the grub config directly, in other words :-)
[15:10] <jnod> ascheel: there is no process that sucks
[15:11] <ascheel> jnod, if it's using CPU resources, a 'top' will show you the process using it
[15:11] <scunizi> gartral: here's a guide on changing servers etc in irssi http://irssi.org/documentation/startup#c6
[15:11] <jnod> ascheel: when i use it (with cp, or dd, or even with mkfs.ext3) it sucks cpu
[15:11] <larsaaAA> sipior: ok, thanks!
[15:11] <jnod> ascheel: yes, i will try with dd and then tell you
[15:11] <gartral> scunizi: I just needed the ctrl-x, it worked, thanks
[15:11] <sebsebseb> thiebaude and ascheel  hi
[15:11] <ascheel> jnod, you will need to contact the HDD manufacturer, probably.  What you may need to do is check the drive for errors
[15:11] <ascheel> gartral, awesome.  :)
[15:12] <jnod> ascheel: its a new drive
[15:12] <ascheel> sebsebseb, I haven't been around in awhile, but I used to hang around under the nick "Huufarted"
[15:12] <jnod> ascheel: i have buyed today
[15:12] <ascheel> jnod, I've had lemons come right out of the box.
[15:12] <ringo999> hat i'm wondering is, where does ubuntu store the keyboard mapping?
[15:12] <sebsebseb> ascheel: oh
[15:12] <ascheel> lemon = new, but still bad, product
[15:12] <jnod> ascheel: yes
[15:12] <ringo999> on debian i used to configure the settings in xorg.conf
[15:12] <jnod> ascheel: but its the same error of the old hard drive
[15:12] <thiebaude> ascheel: wow
[15:12] <theD3viL> i realy cant connect my video card and tv true s-video. Im using intel 855gme, and if anyone could help, please...
[15:13] <jnod> ascheel: so, i think the error is someelse then my hard drive
[15:13] <jnod> ascheel: if you dont think so, no problem
[15:13] <ascheel> thiebaude, ?
[15:13] <jnod> what the %wa of the top command stand for ?
[15:13] <ascheel> jnod, it could be either issue.  But I'm still going to recommend you get it checked.
[15:14] <jnod> %wa of the CPU i mean
[15:14] <ascheel> wait time.
[15:14] <ascheel> jnod, that's wait time.  The time the system is waiting to hear from pieces of hardware, primarily hard drive
[15:15] <jnod> ascheel: well
[15:15] <jnod> ascheel: its too hight
[15:15] <jnod> ascheel: when mkfs.ext3 (or dd or whatever) it wait too much
[15:15] <ascheel> jnod, that makes sense.  What you're going to be looking for first if you think your HDD is causing you issues is new firmware from the manufacturer.
[15:15] <ascheel> jnod, then again, it might just be a slow process!
[15:16] <ascheel> jnod, what size HDD?
[15:16] <jnod> 250GB
[15:16] <gartral> where do I put manually installed plugins in the .mozilla folder to have them.. well.. work?
[15:16] <jnod> ascheel: slow process ok
[15:16] <panfist> hi, i'm trying to run rtorrent and it's telling me that there is a lock on the session directory. I tried to do ps -ef|grep torrent and it seems that rtorrent is not running. what can i do to find out about the lock?
[15:16] <jnod> ascheel: i mkfs.ext3 for many year
[15:16] <ascheel> jnod, for that size I could easily see it taking an hour or more to format it to a new fs
[15:16] <jnod> ascheel: but i have never see 80% of wait time
[15:16] <jnod> ascheel: and so many slow
[15:17] <ascheel> jnod, I don't know, bud.  I'm sorry.  Is the drive 5400 RPM or 7200?
[15:17] <jnod> 5400
[15:17] <ascheel> That IS a slow drive
[15:17] <ascheel> Laptop?
[15:17] <jnod> ok ok
[15:17] <jnod> yes
[15:17] <jnod> no problem
[15:18] <jnod> i try a dd with my netbsd and then come back here
[15:18] <jnod> ok ?
[15:18] <ascheel> jnod, I think you might just be seeing a slow drive.  A high wait time (%wa) is indicative of a bottleneck at the HDD.  I hope that helps you.  Remember, laptop hard drives are not geared towards performance
[15:18] <ascheel> Ok, jnod
[15:18] <jnod> see you, and thanks ascheel
[15:18] <ascheel> Not sure he liked that answer
[15:21] <scunizi> .
[15:22] <Spike1506> goodday
[15:23] <sebsebseb> !hi  |  Spike1506
[15:23] <Spike1506> i have a hp pavillion laptop and i just installed ubuntu (deleted the whole partition scheme etc.), now when i try to boot it gives me a grub error 21 (stage 1.5). When using the livecd to boot from first harddisk it says: disk error AA, AX = 2001, drive 80, Boot failed
[15:23] <ostracon> hi, can anyone recommends a good mp3 player, like winamp? i dont want anything to bulky
[15:23] <R_Dday> anyone now an encoding system for ubuntu to utf8
[15:23] <R_Dday> basically an excell file to a utf8
[15:23] <sebsebseb> !winamp |  ostracon
[15:23] <sebsebseb> ostracon: you can also use Winamp in Wine, and I quite like Banshee :)
[15:24] <ascheel> !amarok | ostracon
[15:24] <lianimator> how should I go about writing a script which will query an online database and store the info on my computer? I need to extract certain info from the HTTP page. I am using curl to query the page, but don't know how to process the result. Is python a good choice?
[15:24] <Spike1506> anyone knows howto fix my problem with grub?
[15:24] <ascheel> Grrr...  Amarok > all for music players in Ubuntu
[15:24] <ZykoticK9> ostracon, audacious in the repo is very similar to Winamp and can use older versions of Winamp themes I think
[15:24] <sebsebseb> ostracon: and Rythombox is default which is an ok player
[15:24] <sipior> lianimator: absolutely.
[15:24] <sebsebseb> ascheel: I still don't understand why so many people like Amarok
[15:24] <lianimator> sipior: thanks.
[15:24] <ascheel> sebsebseb, ever hear of things like Ampache?
[15:25] <ascheel> sebsebseb, or mpd?
[15:25] <sebsebseb> ascheel: sounds vaguly familur I think, for both of those
[15:25] <sebsebseb> ascheel: mpd the commandline one?
[15:25] <sebsebseb> ascheel: media player demon?
[15:25] <R_Dday> ?
[15:25] <ascheel> sebsebseb: ampache = server to host your music, runs off of PHP, MySQL, and Apache.  Amarok plugs right into it and can play all of your music remotely, even downsampling
[15:26] <sebsebseb> ascheel: and anyone can use it?
[15:26] <ascheel> sebsebseb: and ampache also interfaces with mpd (yes the mpd you're talking about) so with all 3, you can listen to your music anywhere, anyhow, any time.
[15:26] <ascheel> sebsebseb, http://www.ampache.org/demo
[15:26] <R_Dday> I am trying to encode an excell file into a utf8 text file version abyone know a software that does it on ubuntu ?
[15:26] <sebsebseb> ascheel: ok thanks :)

[15:28] <ZykoticK9> Spike1506, appears your Grub 21 may be BIOS related see - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-grub/2003-02/msg00082.html & http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/grub-error-21-338856/ for more info

[15:29] <Kartagis> hoşçakalın / bye
[15:29] <ZykoticK9> Spike1506, i think it's a BIOS setting rather then "problem"

[15:33] <fenn_> Hello, question : is there anyway to change the rdesktop icon?
[15:33] <sangho> ¤Ñ..
[15:33] <norpan111> Does anybody know where the settings for sound with HDMI is ? i cant get sound from my TV
[15:33] <frostburn> anyone have issues with amarok in 9.04?  I can't get anything to play/work
[15:33] <R_Dday> I am trying to encode an excell file into a utf8 text file version abyone know a software that does it on ubuntu ?
[15:33] <norpan111> but i can get perfect settings
[15:33] <sebsebseb> Spike1506: yeah that looks ok
[15:33] <norpan111> perfect picture*
[15:33] <ascheel> R_Dday: OOo (OpenOffice.org)
[15:33] <Asad-away> Anyone know a list of USB headsets that work with ubuntu?  My a4tech HD-800 doesn't
[15:33] <frostburn> norpan111, does your video card support sound through hdmi?
[15:33] <sebsebseb> Spike1506: is this a new install?
[15:34] <gartral> I feel dumb... how do i compile python code?
[15:34] <norpan111> frostburn,  yes it does, it plays well in windows
[15:34] <arber4444> zykotick9 but i have aleady activatet
[15:34] <TDT> is there a way to downgrade an installation of something on ubuntu? I tried going to the packages.ubuntu.com to grab them manually, but it's down, is there a better way through apt-get?
[15:34] <Spike1506> sebsebseb, yes, only ubuntu is installed
[15:34] <Spike1506> and i only have 1 harddisk
[15:34] <sebsebseb> !downgrade |  TDT
[15:34] <fenn_> question2 - is there a ubuntu laptop irc channel?
[15:34] <ZykoticK9> arber4444, did you reboot after you activated it?  what is happening?
[15:34] <sebsebseb> Spike1506: I think what has happended is Grub has simpally gone wrong,  or  the partition/s  slightly
[15:34] <frostburn> TDT, yes, you'll have to add the repository and force version
[15:34] <TDT> sebsebseb: Thanks, but I'm actually wanting to just downgrade one packages
[15:34] <sebsebseb> Spike1506: Clean installing would hopefuly fix it
[15:35] <Spike1506> sebsebseb, i already did a clean install
[15:35] <norpan111> But i can still not get any sound  OUT hdmi with ubuntu...
[15:35] <sebsebseb> Spike1506: and same error both times?
[15:35] <Spike1506> yes
[15:35] <TDT> sebsebseb: Err, package.  I need ssh downgraded, the newest one really screwed up some stuff.
[15:35] <frostburn> norpan111, unfortunately it may not be supported, i'd suggest going to your device's forums and see what similar users have done
[15:35] <sebsebseb> Spike1506: well as I said at the begining I would try, but yes I can't really help with this :(
[15:35] <Spike1506> its ok
[15:36] <Asad-away> Anyone know a list of USB headsets that work with ubuntu?  My a4tech HD-800 doesn't
[15:36] <norpan111> frostburn,  its not supported to just have both sound and picture with hdmi in ubuntu yet?
[15:36] <sebsebseb> Spike1506: have you looked through ubuntufourms or something,  maybe people have had similar errors
[15:36] <norpan111> Since my laptop only has HDMI-out . No VGA or nothing
[15:36] <TDT> frostburn: I'm not familiar with doing that, say I wanted the most recent openssh-client/server before the newest one, what would I have to do?
[15:37] <ZykoticK9> norpan111, hdmi audio is possible under ubuntu.  have you verified that the audio isn't muted for hdmi?
[15:37] <Spike1506> most stuff i found didnt aply to me since i have not installed another os next to it :(
[15:37] <norpan111> ZykoticK9,  i cant find that settings anywhere.. but nothing is muted...
[15:37] <sebsebseb> Spike1506: maybe it's Ubuntu specific, and maybe it isn't, but  either way you can try the general Linux channel  ##linux
[15:37] <Spike1506> ty for the help sebsebseb
[15:37] <sebsebseb> Spike1506: ok and good luck
[15:38] <Spike1506> ty
[15:38] <sebsebseb> np
[15:38] <fenn314> how do i get a short nick with no underline here?
[15:38] <norpan111> ZykoticK9,  where should i look?
[15:38] <DaveIngram> When I upgraded to Jaunty I seem to have lost my video card drivers... I have video, but can't get compiz working and it seems like I have no 3D accelleration.. how can I figure out what drivers I need?
[15:39] <norpan111> maybe a different sound-driver?
[15:39] <ZykoticK9> norpan111, in "Volume Control" the Device drop-down - do you see anything HDMI related, have you verified they are all unmted?  I'm affraid I've never tried what you're doing - so hopefully someone else have more suggestions.  Good luck.
[15:39] <erUSUL> DaveIngram: intel graphics ??
[15:39] <norpan111> ZykoticK9,  yes ive tried everything and nothing  is unmounted...
[15:39] <DaveIngram> erUSUL: what's the command that lists all my hardware? (been quite a few months since I did this last now)
[15:40] <erUSUL> DaveIngram: lspci | grep -i vga
[15:40] <ZykoticK9> norpan111, see if any of this applies to you http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=813454&highlight=HDMI+sound
[15:40] <frostburn> TDT, Synaptic > Settings > Repositories > third party software.  Then once you search for sshd, you'll find older versions, you can then right click force version...  I haven't personally done this before.  Usually if I need a specific version of something I'll just get the deb/source and compile it
[15:40] <R_Dday> ascheel:  what do you mean by that ?
[15:40] <R_Dday> I am trying to encode an excell file into a utf8 text file version abyone know a software that does it on ubuntu ?
[15:40] <fenn314> please help - I want to start just one app in rdesktop and have the rdesktop icon look like the app

[15:41] <ZykoticK9> fenn314, i doubt that is possible without SIGNIFICANT hacking of code.  good luck.
[15:41] <DaveIngram> erUSUL: No proprietary drivers are in use on this system
[15:41] <mattalexx> What's the purpose of ~/.icons? If I put a homemade SVG in there to be used in an application launcher in the panel, am I using the folder correctly?
[15:42] <erUSUL> DaveIngram: and can you activate the propietary ones ?
[15:42] <DaveIngram> erUSUL: there's nothing there
[15:42] <fenn314> ZykoticK9: thanks
[15:42] <frybye> Hi - hab jaunty with a new Benq E2200HD an have to re-set the res. to 1920x1080 each new start etc.. despite using sudo nvidia-settings and saving results - when re-starting etc the res is incorrect - any tips?
[15:42] <raf> Helo all, Is there a program able to recover data from ext 3 ?
[15:43] <sebsebseb> raf: yeah
[15:43] <ZykoticK9> mattalexx, most icons Gnome grabs from will be in /usr/share/pixmaps - I think the ~/.icons is for something else actually, i knew at one time.
[15:43] <ascheel> Anybody know how to install a new kernel (2.6.30-generic) in Ubuntu using the .deb files from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.30/ ?
[15:43] <raf> sebsebseb: great
[15:43] <sebsebseb> raf: well deleted ext3, and there's a Windows program
[15:43] <fenn314> Is there any way to tell X to change the icon of a running app?
[15:43] <norpan111> This cant be happening, i really cannot get sound with HDMI
[15:43] <norpan111> This is really boring
[15:43] <erUSUL> ascheel: add the ppa to your sources lists ?
[15:43] <erUSUL> !ppa | ascheel
[15:43] <norpan111> well well
[15:43] <nsahoo> hi ..
[15:43] <nsahoo> hi ..
[15:44] <Tuco> hello
[15:44] <kalon33> hello Tuomoila
[15:44] <kalon33> *hello Tuco
[15:44] <ascheel> erUSUL: how do you determine what the full ppa is?
[15:44] <norpan111> Is there noone else that have tried HDMI with ubuntu?:P
[15:44] <norpan111> Thats wierd
[15:44] <erUSUL> DaveIngram: you should be using the free radeon driver... « glxinfo  | grep -i direct » shows yes or no ?
[15:44] <ascheel> erUSUL: to put into the source manager, that is
[15:44] <ZykoticK9> ascheel, do you have a specific reason for dropping Ubuntu's kernel?  it's kinda a big deal.
[15:45] <ascheel> ZykoticK9: that is Ubuntu's kernel.  It's the new kernel released today.
[15:45] <sebsebseb> ascheel: funny stuff this,   out comes the kernel so many people have been waiting for, but  of course  Ubuntu won't do it as a normal update,  I guess it don't count as a security update,  and so  the whole ppa thing,  which is really for experienced users
[15:45] <ascheel> but it's not in the official kernel
[15:45] <raf> sebsebseb: could u please provide me the name of this program ? Thanks u
[15:45] <norpan111> THen ill just have to play the movie in windows then...
[15:45] <ZykoticK9> ascheel, ahhh.  still seems drastic.
[15:45] <sebsebseb> raf: have you deleted the partition?
[15:45] <ascheel> sebsebseb, I kinda noticed that lol.  Some fixes to Ext3 renaming and truncating are in it I've been looking for
[15:46] <ascheel> ZykoticK9: installing a new kernel isn't that huge of a deal.  ;P  You can always roll back.
[15:46] <raf> sebsebseb: no just my home
[15:46] <sebsebseb> raf: that particular program  I  was thinking of might not be much good
[15:46] <DaveIngram> erUSUL: bah... I was sshed into another machine... correct info is 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[15:46] <ZykoticK9> ascheel, true but why not wait until it makes it through some testing and into ubuntu's main update system?
[15:46] <DaveIngram> erUSUL: sorry about that
[15:46] <sebsebseb> raf: I suggest asking about this in the general Linux channel ##linux
[15:46] <erUSUL> !intel | DaveIngram
[15:47] <ascheel> ZykoticK9: becuase there are a few fixes I want now and have had a few friends running rc4 for almost a month now.
[15:47] <ascheel> s/becuase/because
[15:47] <raf> I've maked 'rm -rf *  myFolderName' instead ''rm -rf   myFolderName''
[15:47] <raf> this a big big error
[15:47] <ZykoticK9> ascheel, k, just wanted to know you had a reason for doing this.  or if it was a "make-work"/testing sorta thing.  good luck man.  i gots nothin'.
[15:48] <ascheel> ZykoticK9: just a laptop anyhow.  :)  If it screws up, I keep a G4L image on my file server anyhow
[15:49] <Dreamglider> need help enabling cpu freq scaling

[15:49] <erUSUL> DaveIngram: no problem
[15:50] <ascheel> Dreamglider, it's usually enabled already.  Is it not and how do you know?
[15:50] <ascheel> Dreamglider, there's an applet named 'CPU Frequency Scaling' or something similar for Gnome already installed.  Might help you.

[15:51] <Dreamglider> ascheel: the applet says it's not supported since i installed/reinstelled  dmidecode.
[15:51] <ascheel> Dreamglider: gotcha, can't help you past that, sorry.
[15:52] <ZykoticK9> yellabs, a quick "apt-cache search wxwidgets" does show a libwxgtk2.8-0 in the repo

[15:53] <yellabs> ok thanks
[15:54] <Snomi> does anyone know of an ubuntu video editing software that is good for face-mapping pictures of rick astley on other people? :P
 Thanks about the icon. I made my own dir called /usr/share/icons/mine and plopped it in there.
[15:54] <ZykoticK9> ThomasGHenry, it appears 1920x1080 is only supported through DVI, which it says is diconnected...
[15:54] <trident523> Snomi: You can get by with gimp. :P
[15:55] <Snomi> video editing trident523 ?
[15:55] <trident523> Snomi: I only saw editing. ... uh, you can do it frame by frame? :P
[15:55] <Snomi> -_-
[15:55] <Snomi> trident523, its a long video
[15:56] <ThomasGHenry> ZykoticK9: thanks. im not sure what that means. can you offer a quick suggestion or should i get googling for DVI stuff?
[15:56] <ZykoticK9> ThomasGHenry, DVI is a cable type, i think you're currently using regular VGA
[15:56] <trident523> ThomasGHenry: DVI is the kind of connector that's usually white, and has a metal cross on the right side.
[15:57] <Dr_Belka> it wierd lookin
[15:57] <buttons840> can i ask some advice: Ubuntu is the only distro i've used, and the community is very helpful and friendly to new users.  a prospective job/project i may be involved with uses centos and i've considered switching.  How much different will centos be?  I know I wll have to use yum instead of apt, how different is yum?  Also, will centos have such a newbie friendly community to help me?
[15:58] <ZykoticK9> ThomasGHenry, both your video card and monitor would have to have DVI connectors for you to get 1920x1080
[15:58] <Dr_Willis> buttons840:  perhaps ask in #centos ? ::)
[15:58] <Dr_Willis> buttons840:  ive not used a RPM based disrto in years..
[15:58] <ThomasGHenry> ZykoticK9: oohhh... lame!
[15:58] <Dr_Belka> centos still uses gnome so you wont be too confused
[15:58] <Vlet_> buttons840: probably not... afaik, centos is a bit more 'pro' if you know what I mean
[15:58] <omnydevi> buttons840: you could also get virtualbox and do some testing at home, nothing better than hands on :)
[15:58] <Alinn> Hi
[15:58] <Dr_Willis> buttons840:  the thing to learn about linux - is if you learn the fundamentals, those rarely change from disrto to disrto.
[15:58] <ThomasGHenry> im sure the monitor does, but i wonder if there isn't another way... drivers or something to get it via VGA
[15:59] <trident523> buttons840: Uh, not a whole lot... just the yum vs apt thing.
[15:59] <ZykoticK9> buttons840, switching distros isn't really a huge deal, much of linux is the same no matter where you go :)  good luck.
[15:59] <Alinn> how to add user to a database?
[15:59] <MadsRH> I clicked "remove from panel" on the Network icon in the panel and now i can't get it back :-( Can anyone help?
[15:59] <ThomasGHenry> ZykoticK9: how were u able to determine that by the way? which piece on information refers to this?
[15:59] <sebsebseb> buttons840: they have a support channel
[15:59] <sebsebseb> buttons840: not as popular as this one though, by a long way
[16:00] <ZykoticK9> ThomasGHenry, xrandr
[16:00] <ThomasGHenry> ZykoticK9: thx
[16:00] <sebsebseb> buttons840: there will be differences between the distros here and there, but  shoudn't be to difficult to pick up CentOS after using Ubuntu
[16:00] <Dreamglider> how do i see the state(current speed) of the CPU in terminal ?
[16:00] <Vlet> MadsRH: it isn't actually the network icon you removed; it's the 'notification area'
[16:01] <Alinn> how to add user to a database (localhost in ubuntu)?
[16:01] <trident523> Alinn: what kind of database?
[16:02] <Alinn> trident523: mysql
[16:02] <ZykoticK9> Alinn, if it's mysql you might try mysql-admin in the repo, it's a gui mysql tool
[16:02] <Snomi> anyone know of a video editing software that will allow me to put rick astley's face on someone elses? for ubuntu

[16:03] <pantcho> i did an install of using 2 OS in the same PC
[16:03] <Vlet> Dreamglider: check out either top or htop... or do you want a single output (not curses based?)
[16:03] <sebsebseb> pantcho: ok I read it wrong
[16:03] <Dreamglider> Snomi: or sudovapt-get install dreamglider
[16:03] <sebsebseb> pantcho: yes your nearly fresh install of 9.04
[16:03] <Dreamglider> Snomi: or sudo apt-get install dreamglider

[16:04] <Snomi> Dreamglider,
[16:04] <ZykoticK9> Alinn, start googling :)  i don't remember man, it's possible - i've done it.
[16:04] <sebsebseb> pantcho: it's ok,  I helped a guy the other day, and when I didn't guide him on the install, because he hadn't got back to me,   he ended up installing Ubuntu on really smalll partitions
[16:04] <Alinn> ZykoticK9: i googled it!
[16:05] <jnod> who was talking to me about sata problem ?
[16:05] <Alinn> ZykoticK9: thanks:)
[16:05] <jnod> damn memory :)
[16:05] <ZykoticK9> Rich, if you don't get an answer here ask in $bash - amazing script suggestions there.  good luck.
[16:05] <Dreamglider> Snomi: hehe dont instell me ! dont know what happend there. > sudo apt-get install cinelerra
[16:05] <sebsebseb> pantcho: your on Ubuntu now?

[16:05] <Dreamglider> Vlet: how do i see the speed in htop ?
[16:06] <pantcho> sebsebseb: thing is i got winXP on this PC and i loaded the boot cd and then install it without format like when now i boot i got 2 oses choices, ubuntu and XP. yes i am on ubuntu with pidgin
[16:06] <Dr_Willis> Rich:  the advanced bash scripting guide has examples on that topic i recall
[16:06] <Rich> thanks
[16:06] <sebsebseb> pantcho: did you do a partition install?
[16:06] <trident523> psst, found out ATI + DRI + composting = unsability. Someone needs to warn me of these things! >.>
[16:06] <sebsebseb> pantcho: or did you install inside WIndows with Wubi?
[16:06] <Snomi> Dreamglider, that is why i lol'd
[16:06] <pantcho> I don't know i followed the CD instructions
[16:06] <Snomi> Dreamglider, thanks for the help then [=
[16:06] <frostburn> Rich, VAR=$(command here)
[16:06] <pantcho> the system load from the HD thats for sure ;)
[16:06] <frostburn> meganox, heh
[16:06] <Dreamglider> Snomi: np :)
[16:06] <sebsebseb> pantcho: did you boot from the CD and install?  if so yes you got partitions
[16:06] <buttons840> Dreamglider, have you tried man htop?
[16:07] <Mike_lifeguard> anyone know what app-install-data-commercial is?
[16:07] <pantcho> yeah but it says i dont have enough free space in "/" ..
[16:07] <pantcho> that is ridicoulues
[16:07] <sebsebseb> pantcho: ok  lt's find out
[16:07] <sebsebseb> let's find out
[16:07] <Snomi> Dreamglider, do you know if it opens .3gp format?
[16:07] <Pici> Mike_lifeguard: Its the meta data needed by gnome-app-install (Add/remove programgs) for commercial applications.
[16:07] <sebsebseb> pantcho: df -h and pastebin the output
[16:07] <sebsebseb> !pastebin >  pantcho
[16:07] <pantcho> sec
[16:07] <Vlet> Dreamglider: you want to see the cpu usage, or the overall speed of the cpu?
[16:08] <Dreamglider> Snomi: it can probably import it
[16:08] <Dreamglider> Vlet: i want to see the speed
[16:08] <Snomi> Dreamglider, ok hope so...
[16:09] <sebsebseb> pantcho: would be  something if  Ubuntu came with gparted the partition editor, or a graphical  partition showing program, but nope
[16:09] <Vlet> Dreamglider: oh, then just: cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep MHz
[16:09] <pantcho> sebsebseb: http://paste.ubuntu.com/192668/
[16:09] <Mike_lifeguard> sebsebseb: I'm pretty sure it does
[16:10] <pantcho> so cool the pidgin it shows me a little windows telliing me your messge when i am not on the pidgin focus hehe
[16:10] <sebsebseb> Mike_lifeguard: I think there might be a piechart somewhere like Windows
[16:10] <sebsebseb> Mike_lifeguard: for a drive
[16:10] <sebsebseb> partition whatever
[16:10] <Mike_lifeguard> there's that too
[16:10] <Xeon3D> Can someone confirm that it's not currently possible to install ubuntu 9.04 on a raid (Intel Matrix) without tinkering?
[16:10] <Mike_lifeguard> System>Administration>Partition editor is Gparted, AFAICT
[16:10] <sebsebseb> Mike_lifeguard: on the Live CD yes, but it does not get installed
[16:10] <ZykoticK9> pantcho, your / drive is only 2.3G - it's full.
[16:11] <sebsebseb> Mike_lifeguard: by default
[16:11] <pantcho> well i got 2 partitions of 40gb and 80gb
[16:11] <nikitis> Can you convert ext3 to ext4?
[16:11] <nikitis> without losing data
[16:11] <Mike_lifeguard> sebsebseb: did for me (intrepid when I installed, if you recall - might have changed)
[16:11] <pantcho> i told the install cd to install ubuntu on the 40gb along with winXP
[16:11] <Mike_lifeguard> nikitis: yes, but you cannot go back yet
[16:11] <ZykoticK9> pantcho, ubuntu isn't install in either of those drives
[16:11] <buttons840> i believe so nikitis , but it's a one way trip
[16:11] <sebsebseb> nikitis: yes, but it may not be the real thing
[16:11] <meganox> sebsebseb: Applications -> Accessories -> Disk Usage Analyser is installed by default on my system
[16:11] <pantcho> so how did it load the ubuntu without the cd?
[16:11] <nikitis> sebsebseb, what does that mean?
[16:12] <Mike_lifeguard> sebsebseb: also, having it on the CD but not installed is just stupid -- I'm reasonably sure that's not the case
[16:12] <ZykoticK9> pantcho, it's booting correctly off of your 2.3G / drive i guess.
[16:12] <JPZ> Hello everyone. Are there any plans on switching from sysklogd to rsyslog in Ubuntu ?
[16:12] <sebsebseb> pantcho: yep like the other guy
[16:12] <pantcho> so why then the install cd made a stupid 2.3 gb partition?
[16:12] <pantcho> and not used the 40gb hd
[16:13] <sebsebseb> pantcho: ,because you didn't have  enough unallocated space I expect
[16:13] <pantcho> my 2 drives have 90% free space
[16:13] <nikitis> Mike_lifeguard, You can go back can't you if you copied files off then reformated?
[16:13] <Xeon3D> Is it possible to install Jaunty onto a Intel Matrix Raid (ICH7R) without tinkering with the install process?
[16:13] <pantcho> is there anyway to fix this?
[16:13] <pantcho> or reinstall?
[16:13] <Vlet> Xeon3D: I have a hardware raid using PERC 6/i installed and running great
[16:14] <sebsebseb> meganox: ok yeah I got that to, thanks
[16:14] <Mike_lifeguard> nikitis: Sure, you can reformat the partition - but there is no in-place ext4->ext3 conversion
[16:14] <sebsebseb> pantcho: open  applications > assesories > disk usage analyser
[16:14] <sebsebseb> pantcho: what does that look like :d
[16:14] <nikitis> Mike_lifeguard, okay.  Thanks.  Can /boot be ext4?
[16:14] <Xeon3D> Vlet: Perc 6/i?
[16:14] <Vlet> Xeon3D: that's my controller
[16:14] <sebsebseb> Mike_lifeguard: I am pretty sure gparted still does not get installed by default
[16:14] <pantcho> yeah its full
[16:14] <pantcho> like its gonna explode
[16:15] <pantcho> i am not a fan of gui crap
[16:15] <buttons840> I have a headless server, what would be the easiest method to back up a fresh ubuntu server install to a seperate partition.  I want to ability to be able to restore it to it's freshly installed state without having to actually reinstall.  Any suggestions?
[16:15] <sebsebseb> nikitis: you don't really need a /boot partition
[16:15] <Mike_lifeguard> nikitis: I don't see why not... however note that ext4 is still very new, and may not be as stable as you'd like at this point (particularly for /boot that might be important)
[16:15] <pantcho> the console 99% showed me..
[16:15] <Vlet> pantcho: something's gotta be using up all that space. Ubuntu won't just chew up space on its own
[16:15] <sebsebseb> pantcho: well if you don't like GUI, I can think of  other distros  that are a lot more commandline than Ubuntu
[16:15] <nikitis> Mike_lifeguard, well on Fedora, (i know it's another distro and not ubuntu) you cannot have a /boot as ext4
[16:15] <Xeon3D> Vlet: if I try to install it, it shows both my disks separately :( but windows detects the raid - only 1 disk)
[16:15] <nikitis> I'm thinking of switching
[16:15] <sebsebseb> nikitis: Fedora :)
[16:16] <Mike_lifeguard> nikitis: ah, then perhaps you should double-check the documentation
[16:16] <erUSUL> !info partimage | buttons840
[16:16] <ZykoticK9> Vlet, pantcho there is nothing eating the space there is only 2.3G in his / partition!
[16:16] <sebsebseb> nikitis: I am thinking about running Fedora 11 as host,  instead of 9.04 :)   then maybe i'll put 9.10 back on as host
[16:16] <pantcho> WHY i have only 2.3g in the partition?
[16:16] <Mike_lifeguard> once you install a .deb file you don't need it any more right?
[16:16] <buttons840> thanks erUSUL i'll look into that
[16:16] <nikitis> I'm not liking the direction Fedora is taking their distribution.  I would like permanantly move to ubuntu.  Not a fan of not being able to manually compile my own drivers.
[16:16] <pantcho> why ubuntu install made this...
[16:17] <pantcho> my hd is 40gb in size i choose to install, maybe because i told him to insall along to windowsXP then he did what he want
[16:17] <Vlet> Xeon3D: ahh yeah, that's got something to do with it not being a true `black box` hardware raid controller you're using. Do some googling for ubuntu software raid. Windoze may tell you it's a sinlge drive, but in reality it's simplifying the software raid config for you or so I've heard
[16:17] <Pici> !who | pantcho
[16:17] <pantcho> ubottu: thank you
[16:17] <sebsebseb> pantcho: I think  re install and set up  the partitions yourself, more control that way
[16:17] <pantcho> ubottu: i know...
[16:17] <Vlet> Xeon3D: linux software raid works very well and is very fast
[16:17] <sebsebseb> !thanks |  pantcho
[16:17] <Mike_lifeguard> heh
[16:18] <nikitis> sebsebseb, I'm using Fedora 11 now.  With each new version it seems like Fedora is moving away from true linux
[16:18] <pantcho> but i want to keep the partitions
[16:18] <pantcho> and install on one that exists
[16:18] <sebsebseb> nikitis: some people might say that about Ubuntu,  but this isn't really the place for comments like that
[16:18] <Kaushal> hi
[16:19] <atrus> i've been googling a bit, but i can't find an answer. I'm using exim in a smarthost configuration, on a system with *no* local delivery. the smarthost configuration changed, and required a change in my exim configuration (specifically, authentication). however, since there's no local delivery, there was no way for exim to bounce a message back to me, to tell me something was wrong. is it possible for exim to not tell local mail clients t
[16:19] <atrus> hat a message is finished sending out until it's confirmed that it can get out to the smarthost?
[16:19] <Kaushal> when i install ubuntu on client host using pxe server using ks.cfg, i get the hostname as kickseed
[16:19] <Kaushal> is there a workaround for it ?
[16:19] <nikitis> sebsebseb, on the contrary, ubuntu is more true to linux.  You can still manually compile video drivers, you cannot on fedora any longer
[16:19] <JPZ> Does anyone know if there are any plans on switching from sysklogd to rsyslog in Ubuntu ?
[16:20] <ZykoticK9> nikitis, i think sebsebseb was suggesting this is a more appropriatly discussed in #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:20] <sebsebseb> nikitis: well  Fedora 11 was released yesterday,   and all this is off topic here
[16:21] <nikitis> ZykoticK9, not exactly, i'm asking technical questions about ubuntu to help my decision
[16:21] <R_Dday> I am trying to encode an excell OFFICE file,  into a utf8 text file version anyone know a software that does it on Ubuntu ?
[16:21] <nikitis> Do I need the alternate ubuntu install disc, to use lvm?
[16:22] <meganox> nikitis: yes
[16:22] <meganox> nikitis: if you don't want / to be lvm, you can do a nornal install and then lvm your other partitions and move over to them after
[16:23] <nikitis> meganox, can lvm drives be converted to ext4?  I have 2 drives, 1st drive has 3 partitions.  1st partition is /.  2nd partition is swap, 3rd is 1st portion of lvm, and 2nd drive is 2nd portion of lvm.
[16:24] <nikitis> meganox, the lvm drive is /home
[16:24] <meganox> nikitis: lvm is lower-level than the filesystem, you can format them any way you want
[16:24] <sebsebseb> nikitis: Ext4 is probably better on Fedora 11 really, since the patches in the 2.6.29 kernel,   Ubuntu has some patches in 2.6.28 though, and  2.6.30 is out now, but in Ubuntu you would have to install it with a ppa or whatever,  with Fedora you will get it as an upgrade
[16:25] <znh> Hello :)
[16:25] <sebsebseb> nikitis: update not upgrade above
[16:25] <znh_> Hello :)
[16:25] <elena> mmmmmm
[16:25] <elena> hola
[16:25] <meganox> nikitis: well you can make partitions 3 and the second drive one lvm 'drive'
[16:25] <fikst> !flash
[16:25] <elena> kien eres?
[16:26] <sebsebseb> !es | elena
[16:26] <fikst> !gnash
[16:26] <znh> I'm experiencing difficulties with my wireless setup. It is very unstable and the speed is terrible. I have this at multiple locations (thus different APs)
[16:26] <nikitis> meganox, i've already made them lvm
[16:26] <fikst> flash on PPC ubuntu, anybody know anything? everything i've tried SUCKS.
[16:26] <meganox> nikitis: oh ook
[16:26] <sebsebseb> znh: maybe, useless, but
[16:26] <cabrey> fikst, your only options are gnash or swfdec
[16:26] <sebsebseb> !wireless | znh
[16:26] <meganox> nikitis: and they are formatted to what filesystem?
[16:26] <nikitis> meganox, i was thinkiing of just installing ubuntu onto the / partition and telling ubuntu about the lvm that's already made
[16:27] <nikitis> meganox, ext3
[16:27] <znh> sebsebseb, thanks thou
[16:27] <meganox> nikitis: well then you should install ubuntu on / and not tell it to mount the other partition during install
[16:28] <meganox> then tell it about you lvm setup, then mount the lvm as /home
[16:28] <sebsebseb> znh: ok np, but I guess your issue is more advanced for  those pages
[16:28] <meganox> nikitis: so /home will be on / to begin with
[16:28] <fikst> cabrey: what's my BEST option, between those two?
[16:28] <meganox> nikitis: it's covered in the lvm HOWTO i believe
[16:28] <znh> sebsebseb, It seems this occurs when my laptop recovers from standby. as soon I restart the adapter with ifconfig it seems to be working more stable
[16:29] <fikst> and, am i best off compiling them, or just downloading them through synaptic?
[16:29] <cabrey> fikst, swfdec
[16:29] <cabrey> fikst, compile the latest swfdec
[16:29] <cabrey> and use checkinstall
[16:29] <fikst> how do i do that?
[16:29] <sebsebseb> znh: luckily I am hardwired these days, so no wireless issues for me, and if I was to buy a lap top,  I would make sure the hardware worked well with Linux beforehand
[16:29] <fikst> should i uninstall current swfdec first?
[16:29] <fikst> !swfdec
[16:29] <fikst> fuck
[16:29] <FloodBot2> fikst: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:29] <cabrey> fikst, yes
[16:29] <Pici> fikst: Please mind your language here.
[16:29] <nikitis> meganox, can't i just tell it about the lvm, using the alternate cd?
[16:30] <cabrey> !info swfdec
[16:30] <meganox> nikitis: if you're comfortable with the lvm commands you might, i haven't tried though
[16:30] <shona> hi, i seem to have screwed up my system, running dpkg --configure returns: dpkg uable to access dpkg status area; Read-only file system ... anyone come across this before?  d
[16:31] <znh> sebsebseb, I had the opportunity to get this laptop for few bucks.. I think that's why, heh.
[16:31] <[Crussd2]> how do i active Beryl?
[16:31] <nikitis> meganox, the alternate cd has lvm gui
[16:31] <meganox> nikitis: well you know more than me then ;)
[16:31] <znh> [Crussd2], Beryl has been merged with Compiz, so it's refered as compiz-fusion
[16:31] <sebsebseb> fikst: Adobe Flash in general can be buggy and even have security issues,  there have been articles about that even.   Gnash is getting there and  same thing for Swfdec, but they  aren't quite as good as Adobe Flash.
[16:31] <nikitis> meganox, i just don't know much about ext4
[16:32] <Mike_lifeguard> shona: I think you need sudo for that... try "sudo dpkg --configure" and enter your password if prompted
[16:32] <znh> !compiz > [Crussd2]
[16:32] <nikitis> meganox, and how to convert
[16:32] <fikst> ha
[16:32] <fikst> okay
[16:32] <meganox> nikitis: i'm pretty sure it's filesystem-agnostic
[16:32] <DaveIngram> erUSUL: I ran all the updates and still can't enable compiz. What was that factoid again for Intel?
[16:32] <Mike_lifeguard> !intel
[16:32] <erUSUL> !intel
[16:32] <sebsebseb> znh: well  wireless is one of those things,  not all hardware manufactures suppourt it properly for Linux or at all,  but what makes things interesting is how, sometimes a wireless won't just work in Ubuntu, but it will work no problem in another distro such as Mandriva
[16:32] <soreau> [Crussd2]: If you would like to come to #compiz, we can help you there
[16:33] <[Crussd2]> thx
[16:33] <DaveIngram> thanks erUSUL and Mike_lifeguard!
[16:33] <erUSUL> DaveIngram: i think that perhaps intel carsd are now blacklisted in compiz...
[16:33] <Mike_lifeguard> DaveIngram: that thread has very good solutions, btw
[16:33] <znh> sebsebseb, that is certainly interesting. do you have any leads why?
[16:33] <Mike_lifeguard> erUSUL: no that's not correct
[16:33] <meganox> nikitis: there will be plenty of tutorials if you search for "ext3 ext4 convert tune2fs"
[16:33] <DaveIngram> Mike_lifeguard: I did the second one
[16:33] <[Crussd2]> how do i installing GfxBoot at jaunty??
[16:34] <Mike_lifeguard> DaveIngram: still having problems? Didn't work for me either. Try bleeding-edge if you can stomach it... works like a charm for me
[16:35] <Mike_lifeguard> DaveIngram: I /think/ they've fixed everything in the bleeding-edge stuff except the MTRR bug(s)
[16:35] <Mike_lifeguard> DaveIngram: for which fixmtrr.sh is a workaround
[16:35] <_PiLoT_> hey guys whats the command to identify what devices are plugged intoi usb
[16:35] <Mike_lifeguard> _PiLoT_: lsusb
[16:35] <soreau> _PiLoT_: lsusb
[16:35] <_PiLoT_> cheers
[16:35] <meganox> Mike_lifeguard: what chipset do you have?
[16:36] <[Crussd2]> !lsusb
[16:36] <sebsebseb> znh: there was a guy I   tried to help,  (sadly he ended up buying a new lap top with Vista and staying with it since it worked so well with 8GB RAM in the end, because some sort of 3GB RAM and slowness/lag issue), Ubuntu 8.10 and his wireless woudn't just work, but the Mandriva Live CD/DVD and it did.   Mandriva does wireless differnetly from Ubuntu 8.10.
[16:36] <sebsebseb> znh: in my brackets the lag issue was with 8.10
[16:36] <DaveIngram> Mike_lifeguard: so the bleeding edge is just continue on from the optimal and do the last step?
[16:36] <lesshaste> is there an nvidia package for  185.18.14 ??
[16:36] <_PiLoT_> ubutnu wont find my phone
[16:36]  * DaveIngram opens it up again
[16:36] <renagadex> When I come back from sleep mode, the graphics on my moniter are messed up.
[16:37] <lesshaste> or 185.18.08 ?
[16:37] <Mike_lifeguard> DaveIngram: no, I think you have to revert back to stock and then do bleeding-edge
[16:37] <lesshaste> or anything :)
[16:37] <Mike_lifeguard> DaveIngram: but if you know what you're doing it can be done all in one step... but I'd recommend being safe
[16:37] <soreau> _PiLoT_: Elaborate. What phone model is it and what do you mean by 'wont find my phone' exactly?
[16:37] <sebsebseb> znh: Ubuntu 9.04 apparantly has better atheros wireless support, but otherwise I guess wireless is pretty much the same as Ubuntu 8.10
[16:37] <DaveIngram> Mike_lifeguard: what do you mean by revert back to stock?
[16:37] <sardoodledum> hi, I'm a newbie
[16:37] <_PiLoT_> well my phone conects to ubuntu as a usb device
[16:37] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: ok welcome
[16:37] <_PiLoT_> not mass storage
[16:37] <sardoodledum> is there someone who can help me troubleshoot with installation?
[16:37] <arber4444> hey i want to know how to install kamera and chat with cam intro amsn
[16:38] <Mike_lifeguard> DaveIngram: towards the bottom it explains how to revert changes and so on. you want to go back to the normal jaunty everything before starting a bleeding-edge config
[16:38] <sardoodledum> please? -.-
[16:38] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: what's the issue?
[16:38] <bondibox> looking for someone with a bit of free time right now, wants to earn $20 troubleshooting x windows / gdm
[16:38] <[Crussd2]> !gdm
[16:38] <_PiLoT_> but i cant find the port its in
[16:38] <sardoodledum> it's not booting properly
[16:38] <arber4444>  hey i want to know how to install kamera and chat with cam intro amsn
[16:38] <renagadex> sebsebseb: when I come back from sleep mode my graphics are messed up and greenish pixelated
[16:38] <sebsebseb> !details |  sardoodledum
[16:38] <ipodman715> darn, how would I output only text within parentheses to a new text file? :(
[16:38] <_PiLoT_> lssub
[16:39] <_PiLoT_> never mind people i have it
[16:39] <sebsebseb> renagadex: interesting sleep worked?  ,because you didn't even do a swap partition I think
[16:39] <DaveIngram> Mike_lifeguard: OK... :/ now the page is saying "We'll be right back"
[16:39] <Mike_lifeguard> renagadex: do you have an intel graphics card?
[16:39] <Mike_lifeguard> heh, service fail :D
[16:39] <renagadex> Naw,, Nvidia
[16:39] <soreau> _PiLoT_: If there isn't a linux program for your phone, you might not be able to access it like a mass storage device. My motoralla phone works with moto4lin (for example)
[16:39] <_PiLoT_> !drinksallround
[16:39] <frybye> re: If anybody interested - the soloution to my non-persistant screen res. settings via nvidia-settings and a E2200HD monitor was to exit the correct res. into ~/.config/monitor.xml - that was all that was necessary...
[16:39] <soreau> _PiLoT_: What did you have to do?
[16:39] <Mike_lifeguard> renagadex: IIRC there are nvidia bugs too (but I don't know about them)
[16:40] <sebsebseb> renagadex: yep  Nivida and Xorg issues humm
[16:40] <renagadex> sebsebseb I partitoned free space from my C: and told the partitioner to use largest continuos free space
[16:40] <_PiLoT_> just select activesync from within the phone its a htc phone so i needed to switch it to sych mode
[16:40] <renagadex> sebsebseb: I'll look on there site
[16:40] <soreau> _PiLoT_: Oh ok.
[16:40] <sebsebseb> renagadex: you did another clean install, after I helped you?
[16:40] <_PiLoT_> an i dont need to have a linux app to switch to usb mass storage mode thats in the phone and its universal
[16:40] <renagadex> sebsebseb: I have two different computers....
[16:40] <renagadex> sebsebseb: Lol sorry
[16:41] <sebsebseb> renagadex: ah ok
[16:41] <sardoodledum> I burned Ubuntu 9.04 onto a CD and then started to boot it up, but it;s stuck on a screen saying "booting from local disk" an hasn't changed for hours, and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do from here
[16:41] <frybye> e e e correction: "... was to EDIT the correct res. etc etc.."
[16:41] <renagadex> sebsebseb: This one installed perfectly
[16:41] <renagadex> sebsebseb: I think a restart will fix it
[16:41] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: md5sum your ISO if you still got it
[16:41] <_PiLoT_> now what i have to do is burn an operating sysytem from my linux to my phone but that easy
[16:41] <ShockF> gartral are you still here ?
[16:41] <sebsebseb> !md5sum |  sardoodledum
[16:41] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: maybe the CD is bad
[16:42] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: there's a disk checker on the CD as well
[16:42] <sardoodledum> maybe, but I can't seem to get back to my regular OS either
[16:42] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: ,but I think that's only for checking that the psyical CD is ok
[16:42] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: ah ha you still have Windows on there?
[16:42] <ShockF> another reason the md5sum may not match is if the download cut out for a split second yet it kept on downloading
[16:43] <sardoodledum> OS X
[16:43] <sardoodledum> I partioned the hard drive first
[16:43] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: oh your on a Mac humm
[16:43] <erUSUL> ipodman715: not very elegant but... « grep '(*)' oldfile | cut -d'(' -f2 | cut -d')' -f1 > newfile »
[16:43] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: I guess Grub has gone over  your  Mac bootloader and  now you can't boot anything up
[16:43] <creature_> does ubuntu have a live version that can be run from USB stick?
[16:43] <sebsebseb> !grub |  sardoodledum
[16:44] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: yeah nothing about Mac in that hum
[16:44] <creature_> does ubuntu have a live version that can be run from USB stick?
[16:44] <sebsebseb> !mac  |  sardoodledum
[16:44] <gartral> ShockF: yes i am, whats up?
[16:44] <Dr_Willis> creature_:  you can use unetbootin, to make a bootable usb stick from an iso file. Or the 'usb-disk creator tool'
[16:44] <erUSUL> ipodman715: but it only will print the first parantesis of avery line...
[16:44] <cabrey> sebsebseb, macs use efi and AFAIK grub cant boot from efi
[16:44] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: I  can't really help much  I guess, since don't have a Mac
[16:44] <Dr_Willis> creature_:  or the Ubuntu netbook remix img file.
[16:44] <cabrey> sebsebseb, there is documentation though
[16:44] <creature_> where is the iso file then
[16:44] <creature_> for live ubuntu
[16:44] <Dr_Willis> creature_:  you download the iso file.
[16:44] <sardoodledum> thanks for what you sent me, though
[16:44] <Dr_Willis> the desktop IS a live cd.
[16:44] <sebsebseb> cabrey: ok I guess you can help him then
[16:45] <ShockF> @gartral : using what you said linux installed successfully thanks alot however i do have one problem it wont let me connect to my wireless for some reason i input the password yet it still asks for it

[16:46] <renagadex> sebsebseb: It's fixed now
[16:46] <sebsebseb> arber4444: then you need a program such as AMSN   to  use a web cam on IM, and yes that's MSN only

[16:47] <lesshaste> I have nVidia Corporation NV44 [GeForce 6200 TurboCache(TM)] (rev a1) .. the nvidia web page is asking me to choose a GTX number for the driver
[16:47] <creature_> does the ubuntu livecd support wireless networking?
[16:47] <gartral> ShockF: and what wifi card is it?
[16:47] <lesshaste> what should I be choosing?
[16:47] <gartral> creature_: yes, it *should*
[16:47] <sebsebseb> creature_: I guess so, if the wireless works
[16:47] <erUSUL> lesshaste: you should use the driver that isd provided by ubuntu
[16:47] <Dr_Willis> creature_:  depends on the wireless card also.
[16:47] <AlexSS> @creature, yes
[16:47] <creature_> ath9k
[16:47] <renagadex> sebsebseb:I dont wanna think about it, it works now
[16:47] <erUSUL> !nvidia | lesshaste
[16:47] <lesshaste> erUSUL, I can't sadly
[16:47] <renagadex> sebsebseb: see ya
[16:47] <cabrey> creature_, yes it will work
[16:47] <ShockF> gartral ermmm a built in one ill check hold on
[16:48] <mainstream> hello everybody :D
[16:48] <lesshaste> erUSUL,  how do I install the 185.18.08 driver?
[16:49] <XCP2> hi. there's a bug in xorg in the newer versions of ubuntu that has not been fixed. however, there is a PPA on launchpad that apparently fixes the problem (not in clean way, but it's okay for me). Now my question: if I apply this PPA patch and some time later there is an official ubuntu patch for this problem, or any other update to xorg, will and can this newer update still be applied, although I manually changed my xorg some time before?
[16:49] <erUSUL> !nvidia | lesshaste on the webpages there are links to instructions on how to install it
[16:49] <AlexSS> I have a UNR 9.04 installation on my Acer Aspire one .. works great but I cannot Add/Remove Software .. it always fails, when it does the dependency-check .. does anybody know about this? .. what could it be ? .. is there any workaround ?
[16:49] <sebsebseb> XCP2: I think xorg will still upgrade even if you did a ppa one
[16:49] <erUSUL> !envy-ng | lesshaste or you can use this
[16:49] <erUSUL> !envyng | lesshaste or you can use this
[16:49] <lesshaste> erUSUL, that doesn't cover 185.x.x
[16:50] <haytham-med> hi all,how to lower the cpu temperature?
[16:50] <sebsebseb> haytham-med: by closing the app that is causing such high CPU usage
[16:50] <XCP2> sebsebseb: are you certain about that? :)
[16:50] <haytham-med> i set the cpu freq to powersave
[16:50] <lesshaste> haytham-med, install new fan?
[16:50] <gartral> how can I search a wiiide range of files all at once?
[16:50] <haytham-med> almost no open applications except deluge
[16:50] <erUSUL> gartral: search insede the files ? text files ?
[16:50] <sebsebseb> XCP2: pretty sure, because for example when I was running  Ubuntu 9.04 alpha6  I installed a ppa kernel,  so my music would play again :)   and then later on the  upgraded kernel is available from the actsaul repo, and I install and yep
[16:51] <erUSUL> !details | gartral
[16:51] <onyx> I need to open .chm file, what app does that
[16:51] <ShockF> Gartral : i have a Realtek RTL8187B Wireless 802.11b/g 54Mbps USB 2.0 Network Adapter
[16:51] <haytham-med> around 57 c
[16:51] <erUSUL> !info xchm
[16:51] <XCP2> sebsebseb: well, if it even works for a kernel, it should work for xorg, too :)
[16:51] <gartral> ShockF ok, let me search
[16:51] <sebsebseb> XCP2: yep indeed
[16:51] <onyx> thank you
[16:51] <XCP2> sebsebseb: thank you. :)
[16:51] <sebsebseb> XCP2: np

[16:53] <bushpig> hi all, I am online via ubunto live cd on my laptop trying to recover data from a desktop Hard drive which I have palced inside a USB enclosure, ubunto can see it and allows me to browse so far as my user dir and then it says i dont have permissions....how do i access it ?
[16:53] <jnod> i have checked the hard disk using other os and it works fne
[16:53] <sardoodledum> I didn't download the right software to boot from a CD
[16:53] <jnod> s/fns/fine/
[16:53] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: you didn't get the Mac version?
[16:54] <tangent3> what's the easiest way for me to created an account that can be ssh'ed into, that is chroot'ed upon login, has a disk quota, and cannot view the process list using ps or top
[16:54] <sardoodledum> sebsebseb: I thought it came with my computer, but apprently it didn't
[16:54] <Skyrail> After installing Apache from source, how can I remove it? Is it just a case of deleting the folder in which I installed it (the prefix variable in the config in this case)
[16:54] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: which software?
[16:54]  * pedro__ ahhh back to ubuntu :)
[16:54] <ashmew2> ;)
[16:55] <ceej> hey all, where can i add things to 9.04 notification handler like gmail etc?
[16:55] <haytham-med> does decreasing laptop brightness decreases cpu temp?
[16:55] <gartral> erUSUL: is there any wany that can report wich Line the phrase appears in?
[16:55] <ashmew2> sebsebseb: I sorted that Internet issue i think..Replaced the Router
[16:55] <ashmew2> ;)
[16:55] <erUSUL> gartral: man grep
[16:55] <sebsebseb> ceej: you only asked twice or something so far, but
[16:55] <Intrepd> haytham-med, i would not think so

[16:55] <bushpig> whats the su password for the live cd?
[16:55] <ashmew2> bushpig
[16:55] <ashmew2> you DONT need it
[16:55] <ashmew2> and just do sudo su -
[16:56] <bushpig> ok
[16:56] <ashmew2> wont ask for a pass
[16:56] <sardoodledum> sebsebseb: rEFIt
[16:56] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: ah ok
[16:56] <haytham-med> ok thanks
[16:56] <sebsebseb> sardoodledum: well you got it working now, so enjoy Ubuntu :)

[16:56] <sardoodledum> sebsebseb: Indeed I will, but I have t run now, thanks again :)
[16:56] <sjlkg> hey, edited my rc.local file to change the cpu governor to conservative, but it seems it isn't executed every time jaunty boots.. how come?
[16:56] <ceej> I have a gmail notifiy but it doesn't use the handler ubuntu has I wanted to set it up like http://www.markshuttleworth.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/jaunty904_notifications_example1_web_092.swf
[16:57] <ShockF> gartral if u manage to find a solution pm it me please
[16:58] <cabrey> ceej, it would have to be written for that and linked against libnotify
[16:58] <gartral> ShockF ok, looks like the Linux native driver doesn'thave support for WPA-PSK... can you try setting your router up for a lesser grade encryption, or are you on a capmus?
[16:58] <bushpig> ok, will ubunto live cd read reiserfs ?
[16:58] <ceej> so search for gmail libnotify ?
[16:58] <gustavonarea> Hi. Why in Jaunty /etc/network/interfaces only has the loopback interface? I need to create a bridge on eth0, but it's not defined in the "interfaces" file -- What should I do? I can see it with ifconf, though
[16:59] <bushpig> it recognises the drive is there
[16:59] <cabrey> gustavonarea, network manager handles everything else
[16:59] <bushpig> but says i do not have permissions to access  my users home dir
[16:59] <ShockF> gartral : well its a home network and it can be changed however it is the only security that my router gives and i dont really wnat to have my router without security
[17:00] <bushpig> so trying via terminal and i get to /media/disk/home and then all that is in /home is ubunto folder instead of the external drives users
[17:00] <liekzomg> how do you setup swap encryption using manual setup in alernate cd install? doesn't make sense to put in a password for the swap.
[17:00] <arber4444> i have a serios problem i have camera that i used before on microsoft but acctually dosent work in ubuntu and i need dirvers about this camera where can i find them
[17:00] <sjlkg> hi, i edited my rc.local file to change the cpu governor to conservative on boot, but it seems it isn't executed every time jaunty boots.. does anyone know why?
[17:00] <sebsebseb> arber4444: hummm
[17:00] <sebsebseb> arber4444: you sure? won't work at all in cheese?
[17:00] <gartral> ShockF: try setting a password on the router that has no capitol letters
[17:00] <gustavonarea> cabrey: so I can refer to "eth0" in my interfaces file when I set up the bridge? I tried it but it didn't work, maybe I did something wrong
[17:00] <arber4444> no
[17:00] <sebsebseb> arber4444: which camera is it?
[17:00] <arber4444> it dosent
[17:00] <lazermouse> hi! I installed fglrx, and shouldn't have. X.org server wonldn't do anything, and I couldn't get into my PC. I tried Recovery mode. I did some sudo-ing and messed around. I eventually got it fixed. The only problem was, I accedentally uninstalled some other packages. How do I auto. get the packages back? (They were ubuntu core packages)
[17:00] <arber4444> dont know
[17:00] <sebsebseb> arber4444: it's a web cam yes?  not a digital camera?
[17:01] <SolarisGuy> hey
[17:01] <arber4444> yes it webcam
[17:01] <sebsebseb> arber4444: which make is it?
[17:01] <sebsebseb> SolarisGuy: OpenSolaris :d
[17:01] <cabrey> gustavonarea, you'll have to work around how network manager works
[17:01] <lazermouse> grr, OpenSolaris
[17:01] <sebsebseb> SolarisGuy: now that's an OS I stil haven't tried in a vm
[17:01] <AlexSS> hello ... I have a UNR 9.04 installation on my Acer Aspire one .. works great but I cannot Add/Remove Software .. it always fails, when it does the dependency-check .. does anybody know about this? .. what could it be ? .. is there any workaround ?

[17:02] <arber4444> hey man if you want you can remote my desktop
[17:02] <bushpig> Can anybody tell me if the ubunto live cd can read reiserFS?
 : atlest what ubuntu offers no linux can offer :)

[17:02] <bushpig> hi all, I am online via ubunto live cd on my laptop trying to recover data from a desktop Hard drive which I have palced inside a USB enclosure, ubunto can see it and allows me to browse so far as my user dir and then it says i dont have permissions....how do i access it ?
[17:03] <SolarisGuy> Can any one help me with installation of PixelView PlayTV Ultra Pro TV TUNER CARD

[17:03] <lazermouse> jnod:don't be repeating you question, If someone can help, I'm sure they will
[17:03] <gustavonarea> cabrey: do you have any pointer? Googling for +networkmanager+bridge+interface doesn't seem to throw something useful for me

[17:09] <isaac_> (If there's a more appropriate forum to ask this, let me know. I know this room keeps busy these days......)
[17:09] <onyx> a Question Tor on ubuntu jaunty: the help says Do not use the packages in ubuntu's universe. They are not maintained and most likely old and therefore miss out on stability and possibly security fixes.
[17:09] <UbuntuBoy> I think to switch to Xp
[17:09] <ShockF> gartral : i have to have at least 1 capital as the start and what is this about a win98 driver?
[17:09] <isaac_> How do you get SoundKonverter to preserve folder structure when batch converting your whole music collection?
[17:09] <UbuntuBoy> Becaus My desctop in Ubuntu freez
[17:09] <tpresa> hi, i'm trying to use vmbuilder to build a image with the package sun-java6-jre, but i get an error saying that this package is not available. how can i install java ??

[17:10] <ShockF> ubuntuguy : arnt u supposed to install it on Ext3 not Ext4
[17:10] <UbuntuGuy> lazermouse : till then i am pasting some relevent info in your PM  , just look at that
[17:10] <sebsebseb> ShockF: Ext4 is resasonably stable now
[17:10] <creature_> why the hell do i only get busybox when i boot to the ubuntu?????
[17:11] <ShockF> oh i see thnks for tht sebseb
[17:11] <bushpig> can sopmebody help me please?
[17:11] <isaac_> creature_ that happens a lot.  Just keep rebooting until it works unfortunately.
[17:11] <sebsebseb> ShockF: and it will be even more stable once  Ubuntu is using 2.6.30  by default
[17:11] <JohnFlux> hey all
[17:11] <buttons840> is it possible to unmount / to make a part image of it?
[17:11] <UbuntuBoy> Can someone Help me My desktop freez
[17:11] <creature_> why the hell do i only get busybox when i boot to the ubuntu?????
[17:11] <gartral> ShockF: in cases where wifi cards don't have native support, you can "wrap" a windows driver for the card... though this is both closed source, and can cause sever uissues, sometimes, there's just no other way, but I don't know your hardware real well, and documentation seems sparse..
[17:11] <JohnFlux> pmount seems to be no longer installed by default - is there something else that we should use?
[17:11] <bushpig> can somebody help me please, I am trying to recover data from a desktop hard drive.  I am on a laptop booting ubunto live cd and the data i want to recover is in a USB enclosure and connected.  Ubunto is recognising it and i can navigate into the drive but only get so far, when i try and enter /home/myuser it says i have no permissions
[17:11] <dam0> ZZZZZZZZZ
[17:11] <bushpig> so i have tried via the terminal and then it gets weird.  From terminal i try and navigate into /media/disk/home
[17:11] <isaac_> How do you get SoundKonverter to preserve folder structure when batch converting your whole music collection?  (If there's a better place to ask this, please tell me)
[17:12] <bushpig> but in that path it only displayed 'ubunto' not my users
[17:12] <djsiegel1> Does anyone know how to get new login in a window to work?
[17:12] <isaac_> bushpig try it with booting Puppy instead of Ubuntu.  I use Puppy a lot for forensics/recovery.
[17:12] <UbuntuBoy> Someone can Help me my Gnome Desktop in ubuntu jaunty always freez and the solution is to Shutdown
[17:13] <gartral> ShockF: also keep in mind, im still looking
[17:13] <m0biu5> bushpig: what filesystem is it?
[17:13] <ShockF> gartral : well tbh there is hardly any doucementation for this model as it seems that it is just loads of random parts piled to gether to make one machine so its hard to find things that work without conflicting with everything else
[17:13] <bushpig> issac_ thanks.... whats puppy?
[17:13] <Wind0wz> hey, my internet connection all of a sudden doesn't work on one of my computers
[17:13] <m0biu5> bushpig: puppy is a lightweight distro
[17:13] <Wind0wz> can anyone guide me thru the terminal to diagnose the problem
[17:13] <isaac_> bushpig Puppy Linux.  Very small distro, very handy.  Boots USB drives.
[17:13] <bushpig> isaac_:  reiserFS also ubunto has split the drive into 2 directories disk and disk-1 must be partitions
[17:13] <gartral> ShockF: yea, but even so... realtek is ussually solidly supported by linux
[17:14] <isaac_> bushpig I recommend it for anyone booting from a live cd to work on a crashed install.
[17:14] <Wind0wz> ie - if i plug the net to one computer, it works fine ... no the other one.  i think it's the ISP  but i dont know how to check forsure
[17:14] <chanux> when I try to install libqimagelitz-dev aptitude says it's not available. But when I run an aptitude search, it shows the file with a 'p' at first. What does this mean?
[17:15] <Wind0wz> does anyone know how i can renew my ip via terminal
 can you help me
[17:15] <chanux> Wind0wz, renew?
[17:15] <m0biu5> Wind0wz: dhclient <interface> should work, assuming you're using dhcp
[17:15] <qr> Does anyone know of a piece of software I can use to set timers/alarms?  For example, I'd like to be able to say "alert me at 2:00pm" or "alert me 45 minutes from now".  Does anyone know of a program that does this?
[17:15] <isaac_> Can anyone help me with a massive audio conversion?  I want to make a lossy copy of my whole music collection, and preserve folder structure in the copy.  Can I do this with SoundKonverter?  If not, what can I use?  And is there a better chatroom to ask this question in?
[17:16] <Wind0wz> chanux, well on windows 'repair' connection it says 'renewing ip' ... i guess im looking for a linux alternative
[17:16] <m0biu5> qr: are you looking for a GUI notification? you could combine "at" with something like zenity
[17:16] <chanux> qr, kalarm?
[17:16] <qr> m0biu5: yeah, I need something that I'll notice :) (can't use sound)
[17:16] <bushpig> isaac_:  sounds like a possible plan but i am hoping to get it done via the live cd i am on, do you know why i cannot navigate into my home/myuseR? it ust goes /media/disk/, it lists the drives folders but when i try and enter /home it lets me but then displays 'ubunto and nothing of what should be there, it inda loops me back
[17:16] <Wind0wz> m0biu5, how can i know if i am?
[17:16] <qr> chanux: is there a gnome equivalent of kalarm?
[17:17] <bushpig> isaac_:  i seem to have nailed it
[17:17] <lazermouse> can anyone give me a good tv tuner that works with ubuntu?
[17:17] <isaac_> bushpig go to View, show hidden files
[17:17] <homezz> I had a mapped drive mounted and I updated a few days ago and now its gone. I tried to sudo mount-a and I get a connection refused
[17:17] <m0biu5> Wind0wz: does your IP get assigned automatically?
[17:17] <isaac_> Couldn't hurt to try at least.....
[17:17] <sjlkg> can anyone help: i edited my rc.local file, but it seems it isn't executed every time jaunty boots.. how come?
[17:17] <chanux> qr, no idea
[17:17] <bushpig> yea i dunno they coulda been hidden but i just typed my user into the path and it ofund it, 'ls' just did not show it
[17:17] <chanux> qr try apt-cache search alarm :D
[17:18] <buttons840> i need to make a partimage of / is this possible while / is in use?
[17:18] <bushpig> isaac_:  ok how do i now locate the laptops hard drive?
[17:18] <simplexio> buttons840: far as i know, it wont work
[17:18] <bushpig> or i could pop a dongle in
[17:18] <simplexio> buttons840: have to boot with livecd
[17:18] <isaac_> That should be in Places, My Computer.
[17:18] <m0biu5> qr: take a look at man at and zenity, i think those would work well for you
[17:19] <isaac_> Should show the internal hard drive right along with everything else connected.
[17:19] <qr> m0biu5: yes, those look like what I'm looking for, thanks.
[17:19] <homezz> I had a mapped drive mounted and I updated ubuntu a few days ago and now its gone. I tried to sudo mount-a and I get a connection refused
[17:20] <m0biu5> qr: np, enjoy =)
[17:20] <gartral> ShockF: someone Up There, loves you. It's a "power User" fix, but the instructions are nicly laid out https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-bugs/2008-June/036970.html
[17:20] <isaac_> bushpig if My Computer doesn't show the internal hard drive it may have failed.  Try /media/ folder and see what drives are listed.
[17:20] <m0biu5> bushpig: how is it coming along?
[17:20] <simplexio> homezz: server? sounds like server dosnt listen incoming conenctions
[17:20] <ShockF> cheers gartral i think youve saved me from madness today so far
[17:20] <isaac_> m0biu5 it was probably going better before I interfered.  :P
[17:21] <homezz> Simplexio: it was working fine then I updated
[17:21] <bushpig> isaac_:  i need the path as i am using terminal
[17:21] <bushpig> using a usb dongle now
[17:21] <bushpig> m0biu5:  getting there
[17:21] <isaac_> Using terminal?  Why not just browse to it?
[17:21] <jaypur_mb> i'm having problem to some games on ubuntu, when i start them, it keeps running byitself like i'm pressing the down key... but i'm not, can someone guess whats happening???
[17:21] <UbuntuGuy> Where to ask help for  PixelView PlayTV Ultra Pro tuner card problems in ubuntu 8.10 ?
[17:21] <bushpig> just need to find path of new dongle i have added so i can cp files over
[17:21] <simplexio> homezz: cehck .conf etc..
[17:22] <isaac_> .. /media is in the root file system.  It's one of the folders you see in the main partition directory.
[17:22] <isaac_> Or whatever it's called.
[17:22] <arber4444> how to put what im listening on amsn
[17:22] <homezz> Simplexio: where would that be found?
[17:24] <gartral> ShockF: no worries, trust me, I know how frustrating Linux can be, tell me, do you have any experiences with Linux in the past, or are you a "freash immigrant"
[17:24] <arber4444>  how to put what im listening on amsn
[17:24] <bushpig> isaac_:  root@ubuntu:/media/disk/home/khronus# cp /media/disk/home/khronus/ /media/USB2
[17:24] <bushpig> cp: omitting directory `/media/disk/home/khronus/'
[17:24] <bushpig>  ?
[17:24] <ceej> I just did a sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5 re-launched my firefox and it's still 3.0 anyone know why?
[17:24] <ShockF> freash immigrant =)
[17:24] <m0biu5> bushpig: cp -R for directories
[17:24] <bushpig> ah
[17:24] <bushpig> of course
[17:24] <m0biu5> :)
[17:24] <ShockF> could you explain to me how or what i do with the link you gave me please
[17:25] <arber4444>  how to put what im listening on amsn

[17:26] <kakouts> Bonjour a tous
[17:26] <kakouts> j ai une question
[17:26] <skorasaurus> !fr
[17:26] <kakouts> ok
[17:26] <tanath> is there a channel for rhythmbox support?
[17:26] <skorasaurus> kakouts, pas de probleme
[17:26] <kakouts> so bye all
[17:27] <tanath> when i run rhythmbox it keeps prompting me to search for a plugin (application/x-drivel decoder) for some reason, which it can't find
[17:27] <tanath> i suspect it's faulty format detection or something
[17:27] <ethereality> What do I type in the terminal to view a pdf file?
[17:27] <qr> ethereality: evince
[17:27] <ethereality> thanks :)
[17:28] <ethereality> i'm learning the terminal and it's coool
[17:28] <ethereality> okay thanks bye
[17:28] <tanath> heh, don't see that often
[17:28] <bushpig> grmm ok getting some errors m0biu5
[17:28] <chanux> when I try to install libqimagelitz-dev aptitude says it's not available. But when I run an aptitude search, it shows the file with a 'p' at first. What does this mean?
[17:28] <homezz> Simplexio: I checked my etc/fstab file and its the same. what i want is to boot and have it automatic mount the drive
[17:28] <UbuntuGuy> is ubuntu 8.10 supports  PixelView PlayTV Ultra Pro Tuner
[17:28] <tanath> why is there no package in the repo for songbird?
[17:28] <m0biu5> bushpig: I messaged you, might be easier to continue there..
[17:28] <bushpig> m0biu5:  cp: cannot create regular file `/media/USB2_/khronus/Uni/year2/BIOL2201-Agroecosystems/Plant pathology coursework/Spider Mites.jpg': File exists
[17:28] <bushpig> ok
[17:29] <ShockF> gartral : ok im hazarding a guess but would i copy that section of text and paste it somewhere on linux ?
[17:30] <nikitis> Are there any problems with 32bit wine on 64 bit ubuntu?
[17:30] <nikitis> like 32 bit dependancies on 64 bit ubuntu
[17:31] <swindler> do you think that the ubuntu is safe?
[17:31] <tanath> anyone know why rhythmbox would keep prompting to search for an "application/x-drivel decoder" plugin?
[17:31] <nikitis> swindler, yes
[17:31] <nikitis> tanath, because it does not know how to play that type of song file
[17:31] <tanath> swindler, depends on what you mean by 'safe'
[17:32] <tanath> nikitis, does "application/x-drivel decoder" seem like a sound format? :P
[17:32] <swindler> so i thinking about for example "bad" sites
[17:32] <AakashPatel> hey is tehre a libwbclient0 dev package?
[17:32] <tanath> swindler, much safer than windows
[17:32] <AakashPatel> i cant seem to find one
[17:32] <homezz> I had a mapped drive mounted and I updated ubuntu a few days ago and now its gone. I tried to sudo mount-a and I get a connection refused. my etc/fstab file is the same and the mounted network drive is the same what can I do
[17:32] <nikitis> tanath, i don't know what it sounds like, but your using rhythmbox which is a "music" player
[17:33] <tanath> nikitis, indeed. it's my replacement for amarok until they get their heads on straight :P
[17:33] <tanath> nikitis, i suspect it's faulty format detection. i do have video game music that i suspect is causing it
[17:33] <ubuntu> can anyone help me with grub... my log - http://pastebin.com/d7b0380bb . i dont know anything else that i could check
[17:34] <_2eXtreme> guys, in my sound preferences under the "Switches" tab, there are three checkboxes, "Headphone", "IEC958", and "IEC958 Default PCM". The first and third checkboxes are always checked when I boot up, but the second is not. I need to check it every time I boot up in order to activate my speakers. How can I make it so the second check box is always selected at boot up.
[17:34] <rameshwo> hi guys.. i am trying to use xubuntu ..  will i be lacking knowledge of linux if i use X desktop than kde or gnome ?
[17:34] <anodesni> Compiz fusion tears, especially with google earth and fast moving video, is it possible to remove tearing?
[17:35] <tanath> rameshwo, you can always just try it out. boot to live disc version
[17:35] <ShockF> tanath
[17:35] <tanath> ShockF, hm?
[17:35] <ShockF> do you know what i should do with this https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-bugs/2008-June/036970.html
[17:35] <_Pol_> hello
[17:35] <rameshwo> tanath  :  i'm going to  use xubuntu.. not trying...
[17:35] <swindler> so, but why? i have windows without AV and ubuntu without AV, if i visit the dangerous site i think the effect will be that same
[17:35] <swindler> and u?
[17:36] <_Pol_> I'm looking for a directory in the filesystem where are stored package I download with apt-get
[17:36] <tanath> rameshwo, perhaps i don't quite understand your question
[17:36] <Psykopaten> ubuntu: I think you should try "root (hd0,2)" or "root (hd0,3)",, root certainly not on the swap partition
[17:36] <tanath> swindler, not quite. windows is more vulnerable. AVs don't generally protect you from web exploits
[17:37] <tanath> swindler, just from what you get as a result of them
[17:37] <cabrey_> swindler, anyways anything that does download won
[17:37] <cabrey_> swindler, won't be executed *
[17:38] <rameshwo> hey.. are there different softwares for kde and gnome ? or any will work on both ??
[17:38] <swindler> hm i have to trying write the dangerous script and test in win and ubuntu
[17:38] <Pici> rameshwo: Most software will work on both fine.
[17:38] <ShockF> pici
[17:38] <tanath> ShockF, you can't connect to the access point, but wireless seems to be working?
[17:38] <ShockF> yes tanath
[17:39] <ubuntu> lol psykopaten i was desperate i couldnt figure this problem with myself..thanks.. at least in terminal it suceeded.Ill go restart pc to see if everything works in real thanks
[17:39] <cabrey_> swindler, uhh you're trying to write malicious softwaare?
[17:39] <tanath> ShockF, you have access to the access point?
[17:39] <ShockF> yup
[17:39] <dhendrix> rameshwo:  there is some different software... the main difference is usage of libraries such as GTK and QT. Most Gnome apps are written using GTK, and most KDE apps use QT.
[17:39] <tanath> ShockF, could you try turning off encryption temporarily to see if you can connect?
[17:39] <dhendrix> rameshwo:  you can run gnome apps in KDE and KDE apps in Gnome, but they might look weird.
[17:39] <swindler> cabrey yes
[17:39] <swindler> propably
[17:40] <rameshwo> so if i want vlc player.. then i should get different packages for kde and gnome...
[17:40] <tanath> swindler, you're free to try... and cross-platform exploits can be made... but they're not common
[17:40] <ShockF> i could try however id have to reset all the computers on the network to try get it working
[17:40] <dhendrix> rameshwo:  not necessarily. You can probably use the same package in either case.
[17:40] <tanath> rameshwo, nope. vlc is one package, will work on both
[17:40] <dhendrix> rameshwo:  There might be a KDE frontend to VLC.
[17:40] <lakedenman_> Can I rely on the Ubuntu 8.04.2 guided hd setup to recognize and configure my raid 5?
[17:40] <elemeNtttt> hey, any one could help me? I just inserted Sony memory stick-duo into my card-reader, but I could not copy any file in it, the error message shown "Read-only". I'm stupid about OS, anyone could help? thx alot
[17:40] <tanath> rameshwo, gnome & kde are simply two different desktop environments
[17:40] <swindler> so i want to create that same 'virus' in that systems, i know that i write 2 vir
[17:41] <cabrey_> swindler, I'll tell you this. you need root access to do anything to the system as a hole. and there are no known exploits and even if there were, it would get patched in a couple of days
[17:41] <tanath> ShockF, nah, you can leave the other comps alone & set it back when you're done
[17:41] <rameshwo> tanath :  they are just desktop outter environments .. nothing to do with the softwares ?
[17:41] <goulash> hi I'm setting up a simple workstation with ubuntu+xen to host a few os's for the first time... should I allocate my whole drive to the host via lvm?
[17:41] <tanath> rameshwo, yes
[17:41] <gartral> ShockF: sorry, wnt afk for coffe, hold on, let me see where this goes
[17:41] <dhendrix> rameshwo:  yep, tanath is right.
[17:41] <ShockF> kk gartral np
[17:41] <rameshwo> tanath  dhendrix thanks..
[17:41] <cabrey_> swindler, also windows & linux are nothing alike, so good luck trying to write a cross platform script, enough people have trouble writing a cross distro script :/
[17:41] <dhendrix> rameshwo:  There might be a KDE or Gnome specific frontend to VLC to make it look nice.
[17:41] <Pici> swindler: We do not support such things in this channel. Please take discussion elsewhere, and note freenode guidelines as well.
[17:42] <Pici> !illegal | swindler
[17:42] <tanath> rameshwo, you can have multiple desktop environments installed & choose which you want to use when you log on, as well
[17:42] <rameshwo> o..
[17:42] <dhendrix> rameshwo:  but in either case, VLC will work
[17:42] <rameshwo> ok ..
[17:42] <chanux> Some one please help me with my aptitude issue
[17:42] <swindler> so i need root for example toinstall something
[17:43] <Myrtti> swindler: did you have ubuntu support questions?
[17:43] <swindler> but when i have non install small programm..
[17:43] <swindler> no
[17:43] <Myrtti> swindler: did you have a problem with your ubuntu?
[17:43] <ShockF> finally got ubuntu installed Myrtti =)
[17:43] <swindler> no,
[17:43] <Myrtti> swindler: then feel free to take the discussion elsewhere
[17:44] <Myrtti> swindler: and that wasn't exactly a request
[17:44] <Myrtti> ShockF: brilliant! :-)
[17:44] <swindler> so i just want to know.. but ok EOT, thns
[17:44] <swindler> thnx^
[17:45] <ShockF> atm gartral is helping me sort out my wireless problem so im just waiting for his reply
[17:45] <creature1> how do you adjust gspca webcam paremeters?
[17:46] <rameshwo> all package management is done thru GUI . but still why should i run CLI package management ???
[17:47] <Pici> rameshwo: Incorrect. not all package management is GUI.
[17:47] <gartral> ShockF: you need to add the code block to wpa_supplicant.conf... but I don't know where that xists on Ubuntu
[17:47] <rameshwo> all package management can be done thru GUI . but still why should i learn CLI package management ???
[17:47] <Mithran> I'm trying to get gtalk voice/video chat to work under Ubuntu one way or another. Tried Empathy but haven't gotten it working so far. So I could use some advice on that, or perhaps another route that works.
[17:47] <creature1> how do you adjust gspca webcam paremeters?
[17:47] <dhendrix> rameshwo:  CLI package management is nice if you need to automate package installation with scripts.
[17:47] <Pici> rameshwo: You don't have to learn it if you don't plan on using the CLI much.
[17:47] <ShockF> gartral : ok
[17:48] <ShockF> myrtti : do you know where the wpa_supplicant.conf i
[17:48] <ShockF> is*
[17:48] <genii> creature1: Please wait 5-7 minutes before asking the same questiona again
[17:48] <rameshwo> OK..
[17:48] <dhendrix> Is there a guide for how to use the linux-image-generic packages?
[17:48] <gartral> ShockF: just found it, you need to sudo gedit /ect/wpa_supplicant.conf
[17:48] <ShockF> ok whats a sudo gedit
[17:49] <dhendrix> I'm playing around with kernel compilation options in ubuntu, but I'm kind of new to debian. apt-get source linux-image generic seems to download the source tarballs and create the linux-meta-2.6.xx directory, along with the debian/ subdirectory, but does not actually unpack the sources.
[17:49] <chanux> Some one please help me get packages mentioned here http://pastebin.com/d4a9e1229
[17:50] <rameshwo> ShockF ; running gedit ( editor ) as su..
[17:50] <creature1> !gspca
[17:50] <joule_> this is disturbing.. xchat autoconnecting to this channel/network
[17:50] <joule_> how do i remove it?
[17:50] <ShockF> ramesho : ok
[17:50] <Tommeh> joule_: Edit the entry in the network list for 'ubuntu server'
[17:50] <Tommeh> And uncheck the autoconnect button
[17:51] <Tommeh> s/button/`option checkbox'
[17:51] <joule_> tommeh, thanks
[17:51] <ShockF> gartral : how would i be able to copy and paste the code block into a text docuemnt so its viewable on ubuntu
[17:51] <TimeToChoose> I can't boot into my ubuntu partition: When I try to i see some of the text flashing by like it is going to load, but it never actually gets to the loading screen, then the screen just kind of flickrs slowly to different shades of black
[17:51] <jnod> chanux, where come from that output ?
[17:52] <bobovski> Hi, I'm using ubuntu netbook remix and I've noticed that after resumiing from suspend, the screen is not locked. Can I force the screen to lock on suspend?
[17:52] <tanath> rameshwo, it's a good idea to learn CLI package management, because sometimes GUI is insufficient, and X (which provides all GUI functionality) could break, and then you'd be screwed
[17:52] <chanux> jnod, aptitude install <package list>
[17:52] <gartral_> ShockF: wooops... my ISP decided I no longer needed Internet
[17:52] <homezz> when I do a sudo monut -a  I get a error saying connection refused(mount error 111) refer to man mount.cifs) how do i fix this
[17:53] <ShockF> np
[17:53] <jnod> chanux, sorry, never used aptitude, have you tryed apt-get ?
[17:53] <gartral_> ShockF: make the neccisary modifications?
[17:53] <CVirus> How can I install intrepid kernel on jaunty ?
[17:53] <tanath> jnod, aptitude is better than apt-get
[17:53] <ShockF> gartral : not atm im on my windows partition lol
[17:53] <tanath> jnod, better dependency resolution, for one
[17:54] <chanux> jnod, apt-cache sarch do not show the package
[17:54] <TheDarkstar> i people
[17:54] <ShockF> gartral : ok so how do i make a text doc on my windows part so that it is accesible by the ext3 partition
[17:54] <jnod> tanath, yes ? i dont know that. never get problems with apt-*
[17:54] <TimeToChoose> Anyone have any ideas on how to fix it?
[17:54] <TheDarkstar> am i at the correct place for help with ubuntu 9.04 ?
[17:54] <TimeToChoose> if i can't should I use wubi
[17:54] <gartral_> ShockF: well.. when you reboot.. I'll help, It's a lightly complicated procces, but it should go over without a hitch
[17:55] <chanux> jnod, aptitude search shows the package with a 'p' at the beginning which means there;s no trace to the packge on system, apparently
[17:55] <Pici> TheDarkstar: yes.
[17:55] <tanath> jnod, i've gotten into situations in the past with apt-get that aptitude got me out of ;) consider yourself lucky
[17:55] <TheDarkstar> nice :)
[17:55] <jnod> tanath, eheh
[17:55] <ShockF> gartral : i dont have internet on the ubuntu partition =/
[17:55] <gartral_> ShockF: you really should start over in the linux side, do you have a networking cable?
[17:55] <TwoToneSpirit> TheDarkStar:  Welcome.  How can we help?
[17:55] <jnod> chanux, realy dont know aptitude
[17:55] <TheDarkstar> i need some help with installing my monitors
[17:55] <tanath> jnod, ok, dpkg was partly to blame there too.. :P
[17:55] <jnod> chanux, what package are you trying to install ?
[17:56] <ShockF> well by networking i assume you mean ethernet ?
[17:56] <karol_> chuje dziwki i lezbijki
[17:56] <gartral_> ShockF: brb, phone, its AT&T
[17:56] <chanux> some stuff needed to compile QT
[17:56] <Pici> chanux: all the p means is that the package is not installed. an i would be an installed and a v would mean its a virtual package.
[17:56] <TheDarkstar> i got 3 monitors but i can't seem to get them all to work
[17:56] <bobovski> Is there another channel for netbook remix help?
[17:56] <kakouts> hi all
[17:56] <kakouts> someone can send me the link to join the ubuntu fr please
[17:56] <chanux> Pici, But man aptitude said something diff
[17:56] <peeps[work]> anyone know how to remove the video pane when only listening to audio in totem?
[17:57] <ShockF> kakouts type /join #ubuntu-fr
[17:57] <TheDarkstar> i've used nvidia-xconfig but i don't get any signal...
[17:57] <TheDarkstar> any1 got some ideas?
[17:57] <kakouts> thanks
[17:57] <Pici> chanux: Aditionally, why are you trying to compile QT?
[17:57] <peeps[work]> you have to say "main screen turn on" before you can get signal
[17:57] <tanath> lol
[17:58] <chanux> Pici, well I want to learn :)
[17:58] <chanux> Pici, the most common states are p, meaning that no trace of the package exists on the system, c, meaning that the package was
[17:58] <chanux> Pici, ^ from man aptitude
[17:58] <Alien_FX_Fiend> thanks Rachael Tripp I received ubuntu 9.04 perfectly
[17:58] <Rakhen> Hi.  Where can I read up on the "copy/paste"/"clipboard" functionality in Jaunty?  Coming from a windows background, it seems rather random when the copied text is and isn't available to paste.  Does it disappear when the "copy app" is closed?
[17:59] <kakouts> someone can help me
[17:59] <Alien_FX_Fiend> i installed ubuntu on another comp
[17:59] <tanath> Rakhen, ctrl+c, ctrl+x, ctrl+v all work, but so does selected/highlighting text & middle clicking
[17:59] <TheDarkstar> in xconfig you mean ?
[17:59] <chanux> kakouts, ask away
[17:59] <Psykopaten> Rakhen: You need to keep the source window open when you want to copy
[17:59] <Alien_FX_Fiend> and it worked perfectly i just didn't get to try out pidgin im
[17:59] <kakouts> so my problem is when i shutdown or reboot ubuntu 9.04 i have a freeze
[17:59] <tanath> Psykopaten, not always
[17:59] <Pici> chanux: p = pacakge is not installed, c = package was unisntalled, but not purged, i = package is installed.
[17:59] <tanath> Psykopaten, seems to depend on the app
[18:00] <Pici> chanux: That is what the manpage says.
[18:00] <Psykopaten> tanath: ok,, might do,
[18:00] <Ruby-Rube> Hi, I just tried running a 4d game call Adanaxis and now I can't boot up, the display is messed up. Does anyone know how to recover from this situation without reinstalling??
[18:00] <kakouts> i  havent this problem with the other release of ubuntu
[18:00] <ccaron> How can I echo a binary number on the command line?
[18:00] <chanux> Pici, I checked under search section
[18:00] <Pici> chanux: As did I.
[18:00] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, where do i get me a 4d game?
[18:00] <tanath> ;P
[18:00] <Pici> chanux: 'no trace of this package exists on the system' means that it is not installed.
[18:00] <Ruby-Rube> it's under games in the add and remove sectino of Gnome.
[18:01] <Rakhen> Psykopaten: Thankyou.  It seems that way with Firefox.  I'll take care not to expect anything in the "clipboard" until I've pasted it.
[18:01] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, maybe screen res? try cycling resolution. ctrl alt +/- on keypad is kb shortcut
[18:01] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, erm... _4_d?
[18:01] <ShockF> im pretty sure 4d is time
[18:02] <Ruby-Rube> I'll try that but i htink the OS is freezing so it probably won't work.
[18:02] <tanath> ShockF, generally, yeah
[18:02] <chanux> Pici, No offense but here's that part from my man aptitude http://pastebin.com/d4d91b825
[18:02] <ShockF> tanath : hmmm maybe he has discovered time travel :P
[18:02] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, er, i read your comment in parts... missed the 'can't boot' part
[18:02] <tanath> ShockF, it's been done in games before...
[18:03] <chanux> Pici, ah it's now I realized
[18:03] <ShockF> tanath sounds cool ill have to get me some of these games
[18:03] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, where's it stop booting?
[18:03] <chanux> Pici, So why I can't install it with aptitude install? :(
[18:03] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, how far do you get before you notice an issue
[18:03] <tanath> ?
[18:03] <Ruby-Rube> it boots to a screen with (2) Ubuntu) logos but the graphics are screed and I can't do anything.
[18:04] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, two? o.O
[18:04] <Ruby-Rube> yeah, if I reintall I'll lose all my programs, correct?
[18:04] <Pici> chanux: Which package?
[18:04] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, are you familiar with the bootup process? POST, Operating system boot, etc?
[18:04] <Ruby-Rube> yes
[18:04] <TimeToChoose> Can anyone spare some time to help me get my distro working again before i go and try fedora 11
[18:05] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, whatever you've changed from default, prolly. unless you have an upgrade version
[18:05] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, there are ways to fix these things. if you can find a local linux geek, they might be able to help you
[18:05] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, so you get through POST ok, right?
[18:05] <Ruby-Rube> The install of that 4d game screw up my display. Now I can't boot into the GUI. I can get to recovery mode but do not know not to fix.
[18:06] <Ruby-Rube> yes
[18:06] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, you could try booting to a live disc, and uninstalling the game...
[18:06] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, you'd have to mount your hard drive, & chroot to it in terminal
[18:07] <Ruby-Rube> I didn't think my installed games would showup after booting from a Live disk boot?
[18:07] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, which is why i said to mount your hard drive, and chroot to it in terminal
[18:07] <gartral_> ShockF: do you have a networking cable?
[18:07] <crisb2010> hi
[18:07] <negev> hi, how does one get a tarball of the ubuntu patched version of apache 2.2 so i can modify the source slightly and recompile it? is there an easy way to do that?
[18:07] <unitxt> Anyone know if the issue with the fglrx display driver has been fixed in 9.04? I have a 'ATI Technologies Inc RC410 [Radeon Xpress 200M]' video apapter and last time I tried installed 9.04 gave me problems. 'http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fglrx' is the only place I know to go to learn about bug fixes atm.
[18:07] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, chroot command: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroot
[18:07] <crisb2010> can anyone send me the /etc/acpi/sleep.sh script?
[18:07] <ShockF> gartral : by that do you mean ethernet cable ?
[18:08] <rameshwo> how to mount  my C:   during start up so i wouldn't have to enter commands later.. for allusers /??
[18:08] <Ruby-Rube> ok I'll try that, thanks.
[18:08] <gartral_> ShockF: yea
[18:08] <ShockF> yes i do
[18:08] <chanux> Pici, I think I got an idea. Thanx for your valuable time. Will come back with ne wprobs
[18:08] <chanux> :D
[18:08] <bzil_> hello
[18:09] <tanath> unitxt, you try installing from cd or dvd? i find dvd versions have more & install better
[18:09] <TimeToChoose> Pici: you think you could help me get my linux distro to work (newest version of ubuntu)
[18:09] <gartral_> ShockF: then the easiest way to set this u would be to connect it to your router and chat over eathernet
[18:09] <lnub> can some one tell me what to do with my nvidia driver i had a popup saying select a driver, selected the default one and now when i click on the nvidia xserver settings i get a message
[18:09] <lnub> 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.
[18:09] <crisb2010> or does anyone know where i can get the /etc/acpi/sleep.sh ?
[18:10] <ShockF> gartral  : kk ill set everything up and ill be back as soon as possible
[18:10] <tanath> unitxt, couldn't boot on my roomie's laptop with latest cd, but could with a dvd version from 2 yrs ago
[18:10] <gartral_> ShockF: see you soon
[18:10] <Ruby-Rube> Interesting - tanath, what would be the sytax of the chroot cmd?
[18:10] <Ruby-Rube> once I mount my hard disk?
[18:10] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, chroot /path/to/mounted/drive
[18:11] <Ruby-Rube> root of the drive?
[18:11] <rameshwo> ..  what actually does the xconfig  file contains ?  what settings ??
[18:11] <lnub> please i have just instaled after messing up because of the same problem on fedora
[18:11] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, then it'll treat that path as root (/)
[18:11] <Ruby-Rube> ok ill give it a try, thanks again.
[18:11] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, and further commands are treated as being run on that system
[18:11] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, if it's a linux install that is
[18:12] <Pici> TimeToChoose: I'm a bit busy here at the office, but someone else in the channel should be able to help if you ask a detailed question.
[18:12] <homezz> when I do a sudo monut -a  I get a error saying connection refused(mount error 111) refer to man mount.cifs) how do i fix this
[18:12] <tanath> Ruby-Rube, np. good luck
[18:13] <lnub> anyone?
[18:13] <mah-kittehz> Why doesn't my vm of ubuntu have sound? doesn't it just output sound to the windoz? I checked the settings to give it sound
[18:14] <rameshwo> mah-kittehz it should have done..
[18:14] <unitxt> tanath: heh, strange. I'll try a Live CD again and see what happens...thanks.
[18:14] <rameshwo> mah-kittehz : i did the same but got no problem...
[18:14] <mah-kittehz> I don't get sound in any of my 4 full installs of linux, either
[18:14] <TimeToChoose> Pici: any suggestions I have been in this channel for 5 or 6 hours

[18:15] <xcerca> I booted up yesterday and just out of nowhere the sound doesn't work , i tested the hardware with a live cd and it works fine (same connections), I've looked at Prefrences > Sounds and i can't get anything out of any devices ( they would be Audigy 4), the only thing i did was install Boot-Up Manager,  any ideas ?
[18:15] <lnub> nvidia-xconfig how do i do it?
[18:15] <mah-kittehz> gloom: my brother uses just a common logitech
[18:15] <mah-kittehz> gloom: I'll go get it

[18:16] <Tigerplug> hi guys, I'm running Windows 7 and I am going to format and install the latest Ubuntu. I have a few questions.... I've RTM and I'm familiar enough with Linux but i have an external (NTFS) that I would like to read and write to... should I have any trouble?

[18:18] <juan-pablo> thjanks mah
[18:18] <tanath> juan-pablo, install flash. search in synaptic
[18:19] <juan-pablo> i do it yet
[18:19] <[Gloom]> Tigerplug: you will not have any problem with 9.04.
[18:19] <mah-kittehz> juan-pablo: it might be easier to look around in synaptic
[18:19] <homezz> tanath before I update ubuntu I have a mount to a mapped drive and now its gone when I sudo mouont -a it give me a error
[18:19] <dhendrix> does anyone have experience with kernel meta packages?
[18:19] <tanath> juan-pablo, System > Admin > Synaptic package manager
[18:19] <sipior> Steven666: i think you're looking for libssl-dev.
[18:19] <juan-pablo> ok
[18:19] <dhendrix> i haven't been able to find any good on-line docs about them... all I can find is package info, but nothing useful for actually working with the darn things.
[18:19] <Tigerplug> anyone able to help me out with my question (above)?
[18:19] <dhendrix> Tigerplug:  I think ntfs-3g is what you want to deal with ntfs volumes
[18:20] <Tigerplug> [Gloom]: it can read and write fine?
[18:20] <unstable> What is a simple gui for ubuntu/gnome to be an alarm clock, for someone to wake up in the morning?
[18:20] <juan-pablo> theres a lot of flash which one i put
[18:20] <tanath> homezz, what did you update?
[18:20] <hgvs> yes, it should
[18:20] <atrus> dhendrix: what do you want to know about them?
[18:20] <Tigerplug> dhendrix: yep - I'm familiar with ntfs-3g , I have used it in the past but had issues.... I would imagine that the latest release should be fine?
[18:20] <[Gloom]> Tigerplug: yes. The default installation comes with ntfs-3g automount configured, so it will work fine, as in other OSs
[18:20] <homezz> tanath> I updated ubuntu
[18:21] <Tigerplug> [Gloom]: excellent..... time to get installing.... back shortly!
[18:21] <juan-pablo> thank guys
[18:21] <tanath> Tigerplug, i don't have trouble with ntfs partitions
[18:21] <rameshwo> out of topic but.. ntfs-3g  what does 3g mean ? it's a typeof ntfs or ???
[18:21] <Tigerplug> tanath: thats a good sign!
[18:21] <juan-pablo> still dont work
[18:21] <tanath> unstable, try gnome-scheduler
[18:21] <juan-pablo> im a novato
[18:21] <tanath> unstable, have it play music or something
[18:21] <mah-kittehz> juan-pablo: maybe just use adobe's site after all
[18:22] <Thornsberry> I'm new to Ubuntu and have 9.04 and when I try to log out from the current user it'll freeze and I have to reboot, then when it checks the disc after the unclean shutdown I get an fsck error 4 and have to run it manually which takes about 90 minutes.  This happens every time it has to run, is there any way I can fix this?
[18:22] <atrus> rameshwo: it does regular ntfs. my guess would be it's the 3rd generation of that particular implementation of the ntfs fuse driver.
[18:22] <juan-pablo> i dont knoe how to install rpm
[18:22] <anodesni> acces
[18:22] <dhendrix> atrus:  I'd kind of just like more general info. For example, I'd like to patch non-upstream patches into bleeding-edge kernels and compile for various architectures. Kernel metapackages seem like a good option here since they stay up to date and I don't have to worry about micromanagement of versions.
[18:22] <homezz> tanath> I updated ubuntu
[18:22] <mah-kittehz> go to "version" and get the .deb
[18:22] <dhendrix> atrus:  or am I going in the wrong direction here?
[18:23] <tanath> homezz, distro upgrade?
[18:23] <rameshwo> atrus : thanks....
[18:23] <lnub> I would realy like to know what i am ment to do with 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.
[18:23] <tanath> homezz, where's the drive located?
[18:23] <tanath> homezz, how many comps?
[18:23] <atrus> dhendrix: my guess would be if you were patching your kernel and rebuilding, you wouldn't want the meta packages, since they would tend to replace your kernel with new ones.
[18:23] <mah-kittehz> juan-pablo: there's a drop-down to "select verion", and choose the .deb
[18:23] <tanath> homezz, it's a networked drive, right? can other comps access it?
[18:23] <rameshwo> guys. what actually does the xconf file contains ? what settings ?  is it for displays....???
[18:23] <wildc4rd> evening all
[18:23] <anodesni> lnub, do ' sudo nvidia-xconfig' and then log off and log in again
[18:23] <homezz> tenath just one computer
[18:24] <ShishKabab> Hello. I have some weird dependency problems under (K)ubuntu. The following packages have unmet dependencies: gnome-settings-daemon and libgnome-window-settings1. I tried using apt-get -f install and the problem is that the post-removal script of libtdb1 return error code 2. How do I solve this?
[18:24] <hgvs> Hi! I need to install a properitary os build in redmond... I think about two virtualization based solutions: kvm or virtualbox.
[18:24] <homezz> tenath it is a networked computer
[18:24] <hgvs> what would you like to suggest for 9.04?
[18:24] <lnub> anodesni, ty i hope it does not crash like it did on fedora we will soon see :)
[18:24] <tanath> lnub, to run it as root, run 'sudo nvidia-xconfig' in terminal
[18:24] <mah-kittehz> juan-pablo: then open with .deb-package-installer (default)
[18:24] <kebomix> hello , how to update linux kernel ?
[18:24] <anodesni> lnub, did you use proprietary driver program that comes with ubuntu?
[18:25] <fccf> hgvs: I'd suggest virtualbox, and 8.04 if you want stability
[18:25] <tanath> homezz, why are you using samba with only one computer?
[18:25] <lnub> yes this is the one recogm,ended in ubuntu, fress nothing moded
[18:25] <homezz> tanath I can see the computer in places/network
[18:25] <hgvs> fccf: why not 9.04?
[18:25] <juan-pablo> im tryng archive mounter
[18:25] <Pici> !who
[18:25] <juan-pablo> thanks
[18:25] <dhendrix> atrus:  That's fine if it replaces my kernel. I don't really care since I have a hermetic build environment. So long as in the end I can get the .deb packages, it's all good :-)
[18:26] <homezz> tanath before i updated it would automatically mouont now it dosent
[18:26] <fccf> hgvs: 9.04 is very new.. 8.04 is a year old and has had time to have the bugs worked out of it ... hence stablility
[18:26] <tanath> ok, how mounting is handled changed
[18:26] <Alien_FX_Fiend> does rachael tripp come in here?
[18:26] <tanath> homezz, mounting changed recently
[18:26] <fccf> hgvs: It is also supported longer
[18:26] <lnub> um ihave alot of warnings when i did sudo nvidia-xconfig
[18:27] <tanath> homezz, if you look at /etc/fstab you mind find the drive still listed there, but commented out
[18:27] <rameshwo> ubuntu says support for 1.5 years, does that mean i can't get softwares from repositories after 1.5 year ??
[18:27] <tanath> homezz, you can fix it there if you know what you're doing
[18:27] <Dead> im out
[18:27] <Dead> see ya
[18:27] <hgvs> are there known bugs that can stop the whole show?
[18:27] <homezz> tanath it is still there
[18:27] <atrus> dhendrix: ah. meta packages don't have kernels. they just depend on specific versions of kernels. google for information on make-kpkg and the ubuntu/debian package "kernel-package". that'll take a kernel source tree, configure it, add pactches, compile it, add patches, and eventually build a .deb file with the kernel image, modules, and an initrd.

[18:27] <juan-pablo> how do i install this install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz
[18:27] <tanath> homezz, most likely
[18:28] <alsuren> can someone tell me how to make my desktop show ~/Desktop/ rather than ~/?
[18:28] <juan-pablo> how do i install this "install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz
[18:28] <rameshwo> what does supported for 3 years mean ???????
[18:28] <dhendrix> atrus:  Thank you! Yes, I've been looking at make-kpkg, debian/rules for kernels, and have been studying this HOWTO: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
[18:28] <juan-pablo> how do i install this "install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz"
[18:28] <[Gloom]> juan-pablo: have you tried to install from the ubuntu repository?
[18:28] <mah-kittehz> juan-pablo: you were supposed to download the .deb under the drop-down list "select verison to install"
[18:28] <eurythmia> I plugged in my usb hard disk, and copied some files over to it, but for some reason I don't have permissions to change permissions on the disk. Everything is made as my user, but with the group "root" (which my user *is* a member of); I want to change the permissions of a directory to <myuser>:<myuser>, but "chown <myuser>:<myuser> gis/" gives the error: "chown: changing ownership of `gis/': Operation not permitted" ... it does the same whe
[18:28] <eurythmia> n I run the command with a root shell (obtained via: sudo bash -s).
[18:28] <homezz> tanath I can see the computer when i go to places/network
[18:28] <anodesni> juan-pablo, enable partner repository
[18:28] <lnub> anodesni, plz take a look and see if this is normal  http://fpaste.org/paste/14625
[18:28] <sipior> hgvs: easy enough to test, but given the popularity of virtualisation nowadays, i imagine we'd already know about them if they existed.
[18:28] <[Gloom]> juan-pablo: instead of a standalone package?
[18:28] <dhendrix> atrus:  I'm pretty new to debian, so the differences between the kernel packages was lost on me at first, hehe... Thanks for the help.
[18:28] <juan-pablo> it doest down load
[18:29] <Thornsberry> I'm new to Ubuntu and have 9.04 and when I try to log out from the current user it'll freeze and I have to reboot, then when it checks the disc after the unclean shutdown I get an fsck error 4 and have to run it manually which takes about 90 minutes.  This happens every time it freezes and I have to force a reboot.  Is there any way I can fix this?
[18:29] <tanath> homezz, irrelevant. the problem is in /etc/fstab
[18:29] <atrus> dhendrix: no problem.
[18:29] <Newfie_Rich> Hey all, I am having problems with flash... stuff that needs to use flash player in firefox will not work. can someone please help me. As far as i know i have it installed

[18:29] <juan-pablo> i dont know what is a standalone package
[18:29] <anodesni> lnub, that's normal
[18:29] <sipior> Thornsberry: how far does it get before the machine freezes? i don't suppose any error messages get output?
[18:29] <homezz> tanath what should my entry in etc/fstab look like
[18:30] <mah-kittehz> juan-pablo: just click the link and press OK
[18:30] <lnub> kk so log out and log back in again now then, wish me luck
[18:30] <sipior> rameshwo: you won't be able to access the repositories after that time.
[18:30] <anodesni> lnub, good luck
[18:30] <Thornsberry> sipior: It gets to 14% of checking the drive every time then gives me the fsck 4 error and says to run manually.
[18:30] <sipior> Thornsberry: when you try logging out, how far does the machine get?
[18:31] <rameshwo> sipior : oo...  but i can run the current installed softwares ??
[18:31] <juan-pablo> error a later version is instaled
[18:31] <Newfie_Rich> Can someone please help me, My flash player plug in is not working .....
[18:31] <sipior> rameshwo: well, it certainly won't suddenly stop working, no. you simply won't get any updates, security or otherwise.
[18:31] <juan-pablo> thanks guys but some how still dont work

[18:31] <fccf> hgvs: depending on what you are using ubuntu for?, I think you will find 8.04 to be a very mature operating system, unless you need something bleeding edge.. I'd use 8.04... 9.04 has bugs and a intel driver regression (this won't cause a problem in vbox,) but more time has been spent fixing bugs in 8.04 so realistically think of 8.04 as XP and 9.04 as vista (I know bad analogy) newer isn't always better.... see !worksforme
[18:31] <homezz> tanath what should my entry in etc/fstab look like

[18:32] <talntid> Hello all. I set up my servers to now allow local login. I also removed the root login ability, and have been using SSH keys alone. My laptop, which contained my SSH key, is no longer functioning. What are my options?
[18:32] <cougarten> hi, can I launch my existing ubuntu in a vm on my winXP (dual-boot)?
[18:32] <Thornsberry> sipior: Oh, the screen will go black then a blue background with a gray box pops up saying that it cannot display a desktop and to contact my system administer and restart when the problem is solved.
[18:32] <juan-pablo> ok
[18:32] <lnub> anodesni, thank you so much i have been trying to do this on fedora for 8 hours and you guys sorted it out in 5 min
[18:32] <anodesni> juan-pablo, did you restart firefox
[18:32] <anodesni> lnub, you're welcome
[18:32] <Newfie_Rich> andodesni: I don't know if that was ment for me, but I do have adobe-flashplugin package installed but still won't work

[18:33] <rameshwo> guys.. i've been puzzled at the default wallpaper of ubuntu 8.10..  what is it ? it's meaning ....?
[18:33] <buttons840> I have a headless server, and I continually mess it up by compiling multiple source packages.  I'm experimenting and learning.  I'm tired of hooking a monitor and keyboard up to it for reinstall, and I want a way to restore the system to fresh install state through SSH.  I've been looking at partimage, and it think it would work (I don't know for sure), but I cannot partimage the main partition without unmounting it.  Is it possi
[18:33] <buttons840> ble to unmount / to image it?
[18:33] <cougarten> Newfie_Rich, what happens on a flashsite?
[18:33] <juan-pablo> no i dont restart firefox
[18:33] <gartral_> ShockF: still with us?
[18:33] <rameshwo> i can't reaally understand that picture...
[18:33] <Steven666> c-ares-1.6.0 anyone?
[18:33] <anodesni> juan-pablo, then restart firefox and it works
[18:33] <sipior> Thornsberry: but i never says why it can't display a desktop?
[18:34] <hgvs> ok. I'm currently running most of my time with rhel / fedora bases systems. Now I'm start the beginning of migrating my desktop systems to ubuntu because rhel is mostly the times too old
[18:34] <TimeToChoose> Can anyone spare some time to help me get my distro working again before i go and try fedora 11
[18:34] <juan-pablo> ask me to restart tehe system
[18:34] <cougarten> can I launch my existing ubuntu in a vm on my winXP (dual-boot)?
[18:34] <Newfie_Rich> cougarten, Flash Player 9 or later required to view this video. Please visit Adobe to get the  latest version of the Flash Player.
[18:34] <tanath> juan-pablo, don't need to restart the whole computer. just firefox
[18:34] <juan-pablo> fedora its better then ubuntu
[18:34] <cougarten> Newfie_Rich, restarted Firefox?
[18:34] <hgvs> I will give 9.04 with virtualbox a try and then see how it works
[18:34] <juan-pablo> send n error
[18:34] <anodesni> TimeToChoose, what's your problem
[18:34] <hgvs> thank you at the moment
[18:35] <juan-pablo> thanks tanath
[18:35] <Newfie_Rich> Cougarten, I did and restarted my computer and no dice
[18:35] <fccf> hgvs: websites? databases? what were you running on your rhel servers
[18:35] <TimeToChoose> I can't boot into my ubuntu partition: When I try to i see some of the text flashing by like it is going to load, but it never actually gets to the loading screen, then the screen just kind of flickrs slowly to different shades of black
[18:35] <StormWinged> hi guys... everytime i restart my ubuntu jaunty i have 2 partitions that are not mounted at startup, one is ntfs and other is ext 3
[18:35] <Thornsberry> sipior: Not that I recall.  I can't do anything when it happens but turn off the computer.
[18:35] <tanath> homezz, there's a number of possible problems. i don't have time to narrow them down unfortunately
[18:35] <Joeseph> How can I set the permissions of a mounted windows share drive on my computer?   I don't want to be able to write to it...
[18:35] <dhendrix> buttons840:  hmmm, interesting question :-) I would suggest using chroot to change into a sandboxed environment so you don't have to risk messing up your main system.
[18:35] <homezz> tanath np
[18:35] <talntid> Hello all. I set up my servers to now allow local login. I also removed the root login ability, and have been using SSH keys alone. My laptop, which contained my SSH key, is no longer functioning. What are my options?
[18:35] <cougarten> Newfie_Rich, okey, than I don't know, sorry. but I'm not that into it either, hope somebody else can help. or you have to ask in the forums
[18:35] <sparr> When I start some fullscreen apps/games, one of which I am certain uses 800x600, my monitor goes to "Signal out of range" and shuts off.  "DISPLAY=:0 xrandr" from a console reports that it is still in my default 1280x1024@50Hz.  killing the program has no effect.  ctrl+alt+plus/minus has no effect before or after killing the program.  "DISPLAY=:0 xrandr -s 2" results in X crashing.  Help?
[18:35] <anodesni> TimeToChoose, did you try ctrl+alt+F1 to enter tty ? To see if the boot process works
[18:36] <mlissner> Does anybody know why my wireless would occasionally disconnect? It seems to happen independently of what access point I'm on, and at a rate of about once per 3-4 hours.
[18:36] <TimeToChoose> Is wubi, the same thing as intalling ubuntu as an application and the same thing as virtual box?
[18:36] <tanath> Joeseph, mount it read-only
[18:36] <buttons840> dhendrix, chroot and sandboxed, i'm not familliar with these?   i will man chroot, but what is sandboxed?
[18:36] <TimeToChoose> anodesni: yes to no prevail
[18:36] <rameshwo> what's actually a splash screen in linux ??  i've heard it many time..
[18:36] <tanath> Joeseph, 'man mount'
[18:36] <ingcomrbr> I have problems with compiz..
[18:36] <dhendrix> buttons840: Oh, "sandbox" just refers to an environment that is isolated from the main system.
[18:36] <rameshwo> but couldn't figure out. what it is exactly..
[18:36] <lnub> speaking as a windows user trying to use linux i have to say that ubuntu is easyer to use and has more ppl willing to help in easy to understand language imho
[18:36] <anodesni> TimeToChoose, wubi is not the same as vbox
[18:36] <TimeToChoose> I was able to get to a menu where I could do different things, like try to auto fix, go to console console with terminal etc
[18:36] <Newfie_Rich> Cougarten thanks anyways.. I will check the forums i guess
[18:36] <henriquelm> Hello there
[18:36] <Joeseph> tanath: I've mounted it in the fstab....    How do I mount it read only in the fstab.
[18:36] <ingcomrbr> I connected another Monitor on my Lap to have 2 monitors..
[18:36] <buttons840> is this ability avialble in a default install?  dhendrix
[18:37] <TimeToChoose> anodesni: what is it then... i couldn't understand from their site
[18:37] <nJustin3k> im running a cli of ubuntu with xfce4 for DE, I have pelnty of physical memory on the machine im using atm, but firefox is really* laggy, is there somthing that can be done for making it run better from USB, or is there a lighterweight alternative?
[18:37] <ingcomrbr> and after that Compiz was disabled and I can't enable again..
[18:37] <tanath> Joeseph, add ,ro to the options, i think. check man mount
[18:37] <hgvs> rhel desktops mostly
[18:37] <ingcomrbr> I got Ubuntu 8.10..
[18:37] <hgvs> not servers
[18:37] <fccf> rameshwo: splash or usplash is the screen that comes up while ubuntu is loading ... shows ubuntu logo and an orange progress bar (blue for kdm)
[18:37] <artti> I have wierd problem. I have files in folder, but some files what i have downloaded doesn't show up. I see them in terminal and i can search them, but still.
[18:37] <dhendrix> buttons840:  You can use "debootstrap" to create a whole debian environment, then chroot into it and experiment without risking your main system.
[18:37] <anodesni> TimeToChoose, but it might cause the problem, it installs ubuntu alongside windows on the same partition (ntfs) which is not native linux file system
[18:37] <dhendrix> buttons840:  Yeah, i think chroot is available without installing additional packages.
[18:37] <tanath> Joeseph, yep, ro
[18:38] <ingcomrbr> Do you know how to fix this issue?
[18:38] <buttons840> dhendrix, debootstrap another thing i'm unfamillair with
[18:38] <TimeToChoose> ohhhh
[18:38] <TimeToChoose> ok
[18:38] <TimeToChoose> so it basically mimics patritioning without actually partitioning
[18:38] <dhendrix> buttons840:  i just learned about it a couple weeks ago myself. There's a really good HOWTO on the web -- I'll try and dig it up real fast.
[18:38] <tanath> k, i'm off
[18:38] <anodesni> TimeToChoose, yes, it slows down the system, but only a little bit, almost not noticable
[18:38] <Joeseph> tanath: So at the end of my fstab line with my share line in it, I need to add -ro?   I'll try it......
[18:38] <artti> Okey, my eye just catched button that i have never used and that helped.
[18:38] <TimeToChoose> anodesni: back to the problem at hand though (sorry slightly add) any ideas on waht I can do, or should i just give up and reinstall
[18:39] <dhendrix> buttons840:  try http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/426
[18:39] <StormWinged> hi guys... everytime i restart my ubuntu jaunty i have 2 partitions that are not mounted at startup, one is ntfs and other is ext 3, what is the command line to made it always mount?
[18:39] <anodesni> TimeToChoose, if the system really does not boot, it might have to do something with ext4 filesystem. Did you use that?
[18:39] <buttons840> dhendrix, thanks, i'll take a look
[18:39] <henriquelm> I'm getting an error message when I try to upgrade a ubuntu server version 7.10, "it was impossibly to find some of the files, try apt-get update or --fix-missing"
[18:39] <ashmew2> Stormwinger you need to add the entries to fstab
[18:39] <juan-pablo> fedora its better then ubuntu
[18:39] <fccf> hgvs: wow red hat desktops... welcome to the 21st centrury brother, like I said 8.04 will run like a rolls royce, you might get 9.04 to run like a fararri or like a pinto ... good luck
[18:40] <ashmew2> juan-pablo: I think its about personal choice
[18:40] <fccf> !best
[18:40] <ShockF> hmm i think im inthe right place is gartral here
[18:40] <gartral_> henriquelm: did you install *anything* tha isn't from known Ubuntu Repos?
[18:40] <juan-pablo> ok
[18:40] <TheDarkstar||AFK> ive installed nvidia drivers and now when i reboot i get: setting adcanced power management level to 0xfe (254) ...can anyone tell me what to do?
[18:40] <ShockF> hi gartral =)
[18:40] <gartral_> ShockF: hi, I see networking over a wire is fine
[18:40] <henriquelm> gartral_, Not that I remember
[18:40] <ShockF> actually im wireless
[18:40] <juan-pablo> ok
[18:41] <ShockF> plugging the ethernet cable in seemed to sort everything out
[18:41] <gartral_> ShockF: in Ubuntu?
[18:41] <ShockF> yup
[18:41] <nibbler__> ShockF: alternate installer worked  for you in the end?
[18:41] <Raydiation> this channel is growing each month :)
[18:41] <ashmew2> :)
[18:41] <TheDarkstar||AFK> anyone?
[18:41] <juan-pablo> i cant see flash media
[18:41] <Raydiation> thats either a good or a very bad sign xD
[18:41] <sissi> hi
[18:42] <ShockF> nibbler nope in the end i used the live cd with nopic and noalpic settings
[18:42] <TimeToChoose> anodesni: i think it iwll just be easier if i reinstall it, how do i make sure i use the full 15 gigs i allocated
[18:42] <ingcomrbr> I have problems with compiz..
[18:42] <nikitis> Where is the url for the alternate cd for 9.04
[18:42] <fccf> !hi | sissi
[18:42] <ingcomrbr> I connected another Monitor on my Lap to have 2 monitors..
[18:42] <ingcomrbr> Do you know how to fix this issue?
[18:42] <nibbler__> ShockF: ah okay, interesting...
[18:42] <Raydiation> TheDarkstar||AFK: do you have gui?
[18:42] <ingcomrbr> I got Ubuntu 8.10..
[18:42] <sissi> hey can anybody help me with some apache stuff?
[18:42] <ingcomrbr> I connected another Monitor on my Lap to have 2 monitors..
[18:42] <anodesni> TimeToChoose, what do you mean I allocated 15 gig?
[18:42] <TheDarkstar||AFK> no i don't
[18:42] <ingcomrbr> and after that Compiz was disabled and I can't enable again..
[18:42] <dhendrix> buttons840:  Oh, and one more thing to note. When you have your new environment setup (with debootstrap), you might need to bindmount /dev and /proc before chroot'ing. You can do this with: mount -o bind /proc test_environment/proc and mount -o bind /dev test_environment/dev.
[18:42] <TheDarkstar||AFK> i am able to load a terinal tho
[18:42] <ShockF> nibbler how do i change screen res in ubuntu ?
[18:42] <anodesni> TimeToChoose, did you leave blank space on your hdd
[18:43] <TimeToChoose> anodesni: I paritioned 15 or 17 gigs or something for linux, i am currenlty on my vista partition
[18:43] <juan-pablo> icant watch youtube
[18:43] <Joeseph> tanath: Just so you know, that only mounts the top level of the directory of my share as read only, if I go a folder deeper, I have write privileges.
[18:43] <TimeToChoose> well its not blank... its currently filled with a broken ubuntu partition
[18:43] <buttons840> dhendrix, i'm not sure what that means, but i'll remember it if i run into problems ;)
[18:43] <sissi> hm noone ?
[18:43] <fccf> ingcomrbr: please stop typing one sentence ... pressing enter ... and typing another sentence... you won't get compiz working across 2 moniters on a laptop
[18:43] <ashmew2> TimetoChoose: Whats the problem ?
[18:43] <anodesni> TimeToChoose, what partitions did you make on the 15 gig?
[18:43] <dhendrix> buttons840:  So the steps are basically: 1) get the new environment bootstrapped 2) bindmount /proc and /dev, and maybe /sys and 3) chroot 4) enjoy
[18:43] <juan-pablo> help me whit my youtube problem or flash one
[18:44] <TimeToChoose> anodesni: I don't remember ext3 or ext4 or somehing
[18:44] <buttons840> dhendrix, so your suggesting i have a bootstrapped ubuntu running withing ubuntu and that using ubuntu i can reinstall a fresh ubuntu without messing up ubuntu?
[18:44] <dhendrix> buttons840:  It just means that files in /proc and /dev will be usable within your chroot'ed environment. /dev and /proc are special in that their contents are populated on-the-fly by the kernel. So debootstrap will not be able to fill them in for you.
[18:44] <juan-pablo> #spanish
[18:44] <ashmew2> !spanish
[18:44] <TimeToChoose> ashmew2: I have a ubuntu 9.04 partiion that won't boot... it just starts and then some text then a black screen
[18:44] <dhendrix> buttons840:  I think so, yes. Give it a try and let me know if you run into difficulties :-)
[18:44] <gartral_> ShockF: how'ed you manage it?
[18:45] <anodesni> TimeToChoose, you say you want to use all 15 gig, so I ask what partitions you've made. If all partitions sum up to 15 gig...
[18:45] <ashmew2> TimeToChoose: Have you tried booting into recovery mode ? From the Grub Menu i mean
[18:45] <tjsmith82> Anyone around that could help with some install issues?
[18:45] <TimeToChoose> ashmew2: yeah it didn't work
[18:45] <ashmew2> tjsmith82: what is it ?
[18:45] <fccf> !anyone | tjsmith82
[18:45] <ashmew2> !ask
[18:45] <buttons840> dhendrix, anyways, looks like  a good article you gave, i'm reading it and i'l try to catch you if i have more problems, thanks again
[18:45] <sissi> ok again:) i need help with some thing u might consider as really simple
[18:45] <sissi> but i have no clue
[18:45] <atrus> buttons840: you might also consider a virtual linux environment, where you could take snapshots. something like vmware, kvm/qemu, virtualbox...
[18:45] <anodesni> tjsmith82, just ask the question please
[18:46] <ShockF> gartral : well i plugged the ethernet cable in nd botted into ubuntu and noticed that the internet wasnt loading properly and it seemed both wireless and wired had connected and were conflicting against each other so i unplugged and wireless is working perfect
[18:46] <TimeToChoose> anodesni: oh my hdd is 320 gb 17 for ubuntu
[18:46] <buttons840> atrus, yeah, but i don't know if vmware would be able to recognize my sangoma telephone card, i'm having a hard time getting it recognized by the host, let alone a vm
[18:46] <ashmew2> TimeToChoose: Which partition did you install it to ?
[18:46] <anodesni> TimeToChoose, then that's fine
[18:47] <ShockF> gartral : how do i change the screen resulotion ?
[18:47] <juan-pablo> i dont know why  i cnat wacht toutube
[18:47] <sissi> i am supposed to uncomment 2 lines in httpd.conf but i cant find the lines
[18:47] <TimeToChoose> ashmew2 the 17 g one... it was working for awhile, then I tried to enable my restricted video card drivers and now it doesn't work
[18:47] <juan-pablo> make s mad
[18:47] <gartral_> ShockF: heh... sounds like a basic hardware IRQ collision.. hopefully, the new settings will stick
[18:47] <fccf> !flash | juan-pablo
[18:47] <ShishKabab> Where are postrm scripts of packages located?
[18:47] <anodesni> TimeToChoose, it's you're nvidia driver then
[18:47] <juan-pablo> thanks
[18:47] <ashmew2> TimeToChoose: When you try to boot into recovery mode , what does it say , can you recall ?
[18:47] <sissi> i just will paste the online information / howto:
[18:47] <Steven666> can anyone tell me why unrealircd needs c-ares?
[18:47] <sissi>     #ResourceConfig conf/srm.conf
[18:47] <sissi>     #AccessConfig conf/access.conf
[18:47] <sissi> to look like this:

[18:47] <sissi>     AccessConfig /www/conf/access.conf

[18:48] <sissi> sorry

[18:48] <fccf> !guidelines | everybody
[18:49] <ShockF> @gartral : looks like i have an unkown monitor on my laptop any way of fixing this so i can change the resolution
[18:49] <alienkid10> I just installed a ATI Radeon 4350 and when logging in the screen goes white. Compiz is set to turn on automatically could that be it? If so how to stop it so I can fix what's wrong? And what is wrong?
[18:50] <sissi> sorry again and ty :) bye all tc
[18:50] <gartral_> ShockF: what kind of GPU is in it?
[18:50] <ashmew2> later ;)
[18:50] <TimeToChoose> ashmew2: it didn't say anything to my recolection
[18:50] <TimeToChoose> anodesni: I have ati card
[18:50] <anodesni> TimeToChoose, ok
[18:50] <ashmew2> TimeToChoose: ok..Jaunty right
[18:50] <ShockF> gartral : Sis mirage 3+
[18:50] <TimeToChoose> the newest one?
[18:50] <TimeToChoose> 9.04
[18:50] <hanasaki> what is the idfference between building a kernel and building one with initrd?
[18:51] <ryuk_> guys i need help.. i get this error most of the time.. Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "ubuntulooks",
[18:51] <erUSUL> hanasaki: you already said it. for one you build the initrd for the other you do not
[18:51] <ryuk_> what do i do..
[18:51] <hanasaki> hmm erUSUL what sithe value of one type vs the other?
[18:51] <gartral_> ShockF: and I thought my lappies card was obscure, hold on, lemme try and find some info
[18:52] <TimeToChoose> ashmew2: yes Jaunty
[18:52] <ShockF> gartral : yeh lol and get this the computer is only 6 month old
[18:52] <nibbler__> hanasaki: you need initrd to load modules to support your scsi controllers etc. if you compile the relevant stuff into the kernel i dont think you need initrd
[18:52] <fccf> hanasaki: technically the one that initrd builds is already built for a particualr version... whereas compiling your own kernel is a whole nother textbook (or 3)
[18:52] <tjsmith82> Any ideas why an install for a g5 imac would hang on "returning from prom_init"?
[18:52] <erUSUL> hanasaki: initrd is needed in most situation to be able to boot the kernel... (at least in ubuntu you need it becouse of the uuid)
[18:52] <TimeToChoose> ashmew2: 64 bit edition
[18:52] <ashmew2> TimeToChoose: I fear i cant really help you with this considering my zero experience with Ati .. :(
[18:53] <atrus> ryuk_: sounds like you're missing gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks
[18:53] <erUSUL> hanasaki: also if you use raid lvm nfsroot or other such setups you need the initrd
[18:53] <nibbler__> erUSUL: no, kernel is always booted, rest of the system depends on initrd drivers sometimes
[18:53] <hanasaki> erUSUL: uuid? huh?
[18:53] <badfish69> how do i cheeck if ubuntu is using madwifi for my atheros card?
[18:53] <fccf> tjsmith82: the last version that was supported for the G5 was dapper
[18:53] <erUSUL> nibbler__: yes it boots until "Kernel Panioc: Unable to mount root filesystem"
[18:53] <ymanton> is there an easy way to restore a home dir to its default state (without recreating a user)? i remember default files being in /etc somewhere but cant recall
[18:54] <nibbler__> erUSUL: yep, so kernel completely booted, just no root fs :)
[18:54] <eurostar> Salut tout le monde , y'a t'il des français(e)?
[18:54] <erUSUL> nibbler__: i built and booted many kernels on ubuntu and others distros o know what i'm talking about
[18:54] <fccf> !fr
[18:54] <erUSUL> nibbler__: no it does not boot it "panics"
[18:54] <gartral_> ShockF: be so kind as to lspci | grep VGA in a console, please, and give me the output
[18:54] <Patrick9> can someone tell me how to stop windows from opening in the top left corner every time?
[18:55] <dhendrix> yeah... the filesystem has to be read in order to get the UUID so a root partition can be identified.
[18:55] <erUSUL> !uuid | hanasaki
[18:55] <dhendrix> so you need disk, lvm, raid, and filesystem drivers in your initramfs.
[18:55] <ShockF> gartral : how exactly do i do that
[18:55] <hanasaki> erUSUL:  hmmm I build the initrd and it kernel panics on boot
[18:55] <puff> Hm, where do you go to submit a suggestion for ubuntu?
[18:55] <erUSUL> hanasaki: error msg ?
[18:55] <ryuk_> atrus how should i get those?
[18:55] <cabrey> puff, brainstorm.ubuntu.com
[18:55] <erUSUL> !bugs | puff
[18:55] <puff> I guess I could file a bug.
[18:55] <Patrick9> can someone tell me how to stop windows from opening in the top left corner every time? without ccsm
[18:55] <xcess3> Anyone know why PulseAudio Manager would say "Failure: Connection refused" (9.04)?
[18:56] <puff> I just found out that yet another package disappeared from the repos for this latest version (this time it's kdiff3).
[18:56] <hanasaki> erUSUL:  huh? the msg is "kernel panic"
[18:56] <erUSUL> hanasaki: well usually it is "Kernel Panic: something Else"
[18:56] <dhendrix> Patrick9:  depends on your window manager. Some of them have different options for window placement.
[18:56] <fccf> puff: that might be a better question for the folks in #kubuntu
[18:57] <dhendrix> Patrick9:  If you right click on a KDE desktop and click on "Configure Desktop" you can usually find something about that in the "window behavior" menu
[18:57] <Patrick9> dhendrix: I know ccsm can place the windows in the center. but im not using ccsm. im using "no effects"
[18:57] <erUSUL> !info kdiff3 | puff
[18:57] <ShockF> gartral : pm me how to do it im just about to eat so ill tel you what is what when i get back
[18:57] <dhendrix> Patrick9:  I don't know what ccsm is, sorry :-/
[18:57] <erUSUL> puff: it is there as you can see
[18:57] <Patrick9> dhendrix: there is no options for gnome?
[18:57] <puff> erUSUL: They took it out and added it back in.
[18:57] <dhendrix> Patrick9:  I'm sure there are... Maybe there's a #gnome channel you can try?
[18:58] <fccf> puff: or you don't have the universe repository enabled
[18:58] <algomist> IDE for PHP in ubuntu like Dreamweaver ??
[18:58] <Patrick9> dhendrix: this is one of the reasons people dont like linux lol
[18:58] <puff> fccf: No, they took it out and added it back in.
[18:58] <fccf> puff: highly unlikely
[18:58] <puff> erUSUL: Which is not the first time this has happened, and I understand *why* it's happened, I'm just going to submit a suggestion that maybe there should be some message in apt when people try to search or install a package that was removed for a reason.
[18:58] <puff> fccf: Not at all.
[18:59] <algomist> IDE for PHP in ubuntu like Dreamweaver ??
[18:59] <dhendrix> Patrick9:  heh... well, I don't have enough experience with gnome to really comment on their end... i'm a KDE user, and it has a sane window management policy by default
[18:59] <ha1331_> algomist: well, not wysiwyg as far as I know, but eclipse is good, and if you are willing to pay for it, there is zend studio for eclipse
[18:59] <hanasaki> erUSUL: would htat go in the syslog or only on the screen for the panic?  I booted to a good kernel however do not see the panic in syslog
[18:59] <Spike1506> algomist, i use netbeans but its nt wysiwyg
[18:59] <Spike1506> not even
[18:59] <fccf> !info scream | algomist
[18:59] <tiyowan> algomist: Are you looking for something PHP-specific?
[18:59] <dhendrix> Patrick9:  I'm using dual monitors, too, and it intelligently places windows on the sides rather than split down the middle of the screen. So I'm happy.
[18:59] <fireslayer26> hello all

[19:00] <fccf> pici: ty

[19:00] <c1234567890> hi
[19:01] <steven_> Should I install the 64bit version, ( I use skype, wine, flash, and java (all worrying  factors)) I have a 64bit processor as well as 2gb of ram
[19:01] <tiyowan> algomist: Or for something more like Dreamweaver, you could try Quanta Plus.
[19:02] <ashmew2> steven: I dont think you should have issues with Skype and Wine and Java-jdk
[19:02] <StormWinged> steven_ you can install it for sure :D it`s enough
[19:02] <rrittenhouse> What are the disadvantages of installing the 32bit server kernel on a desktop so you can use more RAM (8gb in my case) ?
[19:02] <Spike1506> steven_, iirc there is no real advantage for 64bit unless you have 4GB+ memory
[19:02] <Myrtti> steven_: wine and skype work as in 32-bit, Java and flash are your biggest worries
[19:02] <ha1331_> algomist: also I'm thinking wine can run dreamweaver
[19:02] <Spike1506> but dont nail me on that
[19:02] <ashmew2> steven: Yep as Spike1506 said..You need at least 4 GB ram
[19:02] <fireslayer26> how can I diagnose my wireless card?
[19:02] <kane77> is there any tool to create html from bunch of images? (just to place them one after another)
[19:02] <SigurdSuhm> Anyone patching the new kernel? (2.6.30)
[19:02] <StormWinged> steven_:  you reffer to java/flash as plugins in firefox?
[19:02] <ashmew2> steven: I think you should be fine with 32 Bit
[19:03] <Spike1506> steven_, unless you want to upgrade later on to 4GB or more for memory i would use 32bit
[19:03] <Frazzer> algomist: or for something more like dreamweaver, you have 4gb+ memory
[19:03] <gletob> What the terminal command be to find the Grub UUID of /dev/sda5 ?
[19:03] <Frazzer> what are the 32bit server kernel on a desktop so you can install it for sure :d it`s enough
[19:03] <gletob> ^would
[19:04] <algomist> any IDE can autocomplete syntaxes  ??
[19:04] <fccf> !uuid | gletob
[19:04] <Spike1506> algomist, netbeans is able to do that
[19:04] <Frazzer> but dont nail me on that
[19:04] <Spike1506> probably most IDE's are capable of autocompletion these days
[19:04] <Spike1506> *probably == iirc
[19:04] <Frazzer> steven_, iirc there is no real advantage for something more like dreamweaver, you have 4gb+ memory
[19:04] <Jck_true> Netbeans is great
[19:05] <ha1331_> ashmew2: and would you also need the application that need's more than 4G of memory. atleast I always taught that 32bit linux can have more than 4G memory, you just can't allocate more than 4G for single application, process or something like that?
[19:05] <Frazzer> should i install it for something more like dreamweaver, you should be fine with skype and skype work as well as 2gb of ram (8gb in my case) ?

[19:30] <nomike> I have a newly set up Ubuntu 9.04 machine with an Intel-P4 32Bit HT CPU. When I plug in an USB device (USB-Stick, WLAN-Stickm, Mouse, Keyboard) it does not get detected. dmesg doesn't show anything (even if I wait a few minutes)
[19:30] <nomike> Any Ideas what goes wrong here?
[19:30] <z|> i did ask the real questin.
[19:30] <fccf> nomike: try lsusb
[19:31] <_PiLoT_1>  itried to install gparted in the terminal but its already in my system but it looks like its locked the disc
[19:31] <kev_zhong> I am trying to install ubuntu 9.04 32 bit on a desktop, and when it loads the monitor does not want to work, xp is already installed. I can hear the music when you load up, but i see nothing on the screen, any ideas as to why?
[19:31] <nomike> doesn't show the device too (but since the kernel doesn't seem to get the hotplug event it would be strange if lsusb showed something)
[19:31] <fccf> nomike: also try cat /proc/bus/input/devices
[19:31] <nomike> however, when I reboot the device works
[19:32] <xNinja> hey is there different between ubuntu and kubuntu than gnome and kde ?
[19:32] <_PiLoT_1> anyone know how to format a locked usb drive through gparted
[19:33] <cabrey> xNinja, nope
[19:33] <kev_zhong> anybody have an Idea of why ubuntu does not want to show up on a monitor when it loads?
[19:33] <xNinja> so thats it ? no different in hardware detection or so
[19:33] <cabrey> xNinja, nada
[19:33] <z|> it's a serious bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/315763
[19:33] <nomike> fccf: it shows all my input devices (btw: i didn't know, that my power button, pc speaker, mouse and keyboard are all connected to the same "bus" ;-) but as they where all there upon boot...
[19:34] <z|> not been resolved for a long time
[19:34] <nomike> is there some daemon which handles USB-Plugin stuff?
[19:34] <nomike> s/Plugin/Hotplug/
[19:34] <ha1331_> is there way to have some application to be "always on the visible workspace" by default?
[19:34] <Vandos> hi
[19:35] <Vandos> im new to linux so this might be a stupid thing but, when i open the terminal i get "There was an error creating the child process for this terminal" any one knows how to fix this ?
[19:35] <nomike> well I tried restarting the udev daemon but it doesn't work

[19:37] <burntresistor> whats the command to install a tar bz2 file
[19:38] <nomike> burntresistor: tar.bz2 is basically the same as a "zip" file.

[19:38] <nomike> depends on whats inside

[19:46] <Myrtti> lakedenman: there's a mechanic to pick the fastest server
[19:46] <ashmew2> lakednman: I had that problem because i didnt add the DNS Servers from my ISP. Maybe give that a try. Or selecting a mirror that is nearer.

[19:49] <fccf> mib_lbjwbgao: ESC @ first screen that says GRUB loading ... select recovery console -- -this will give you root be careful
[19:49] <ashmew2> zak_ : use gparted to do that
[19:49] <zak_> i want to do it from konsole

[19:50] <xNinja> i mean not for gnome you cheating me
[19:50] <Knifa> msekersi this may not be that helpful, but it sounds like it's probably a hardware issue.
[19:50] <texincali> and i have searched the forums...i just see people asking about the same problem i have and nobody answering them

[19:51] <chefkoch2oo9> hi. other peoples cant hear me in teamspeak. can somebody help me?
[19:52] <Knifa> msekersi if so maybe it is a driver issue then

[19:53] <heq> thank you for know frends
[19:53] <Knifa> msekersi ah
[19:53] <Knifa> hmm
[19:54] <ashmew2> Gourlis: Ubuntu doesnt update on its own. You have to run sudo apt-get upgrade or do it via the Update Manager as far as i know
[19:54] <swafnir> Shaan7 - ups - thank you , wrong channel ;)
[19:54] <xNinja> in backtrack there is a leetmode http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/lifehacker/2009/03/BackTrack1.png    i need something like that in screenlets

[19:55] <jmazikowski> Hello, is there a way to increase the size of an existing partition? I need to enlarge my /boot partition in order to upgrade.
[19:55] <Knifa> msekersi mayhaps try it on a live cd to see if it does it?
[19:55] <Knifa> also run memtewt
[19:55] <Knifa> memtest
[19:55] <Knifa> though you said you tried other ram
[19:55] <Knifa> D:
[19:55] <FloodBot2> Knifa: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:55] <msekersi> ye, its doing a 3rd run now
[19:56] <msekersi> memtest
[19:56] <ashmew2> Gourlis: Go to System> Administration > Update Manager. Click on Settings in the lower Left Corner. Then in the window that opens , Select Check for Updates. And set it to Daily. There are some other options as well there ;)
[19:56] <msekersi> Knifa: do you think it could be swap related?
[19:56] <ShockF> what does everyone reccomend as an irc client for linux ?
[19:56] <Gourlis> jmazikowski, http://gparted.sourceforge.net/
[19:56] <Knifa> msekersi mayhaps
[19:56] <jmazikowski> Gourlis, gparted will be able to resize it without damaging my data?
[19:57] <Knifa> msekersi googling a bit it says it can happen if you don't have a swap partition mounted and working
[19:57] <msekersi> Knifa: i noticed weird errors on the lvm aswell: "File descriptor 5 left open " with every lvm command, and since the swap is on the lvm. imma gonna do a install without swap on lvm
[19:57] <Gourlis> jmazikowski, am not 100% sure. I resized my swap partition only.
[19:57] <truthordare> is a sap needed if u have enough ram ??
[19:57] <\\`oot> Hi folks, good afternoon!
[19:57] <truthordare> is swap needed i mean?
[19:57] <Knifa> msekersi yeah give that a go
[19:57] <jmazikowski> Gourlis, thanks I'll check into it
[19:57] <ashmew2> jmazikowski: You are better Off backing up data before resizing. It doesnt usually lose Data but it can surely happen.
[19:58] <furythor> Why after installing propertiary drivers my screen settings go jinxed ?
[19:58] <texincali> need somone that knows a thing or 2 about sound in ubuntu....
[19:58] <eurostar> Comment on fait pour changer de chan
[19:58] <Gourlis> jmazikowski, if you don't know how to install it, check from synaptic manager about gparted and mark it to install.
[19:58] <eurostar> "/join ubuntu-fr" ?
[19:58] <ashmew2> truthordare: No its not needed if you have "Enough" RAM.
[19:59] <bullgard4> Synaptic reports: "You have 1 broken package on your system! Use the "Broken" filter to locate it." Where can I find the 'broken' filter? How to use it?
[19:59] <truthordare> is there a way to edit/ add/ remove the swap after installing linux?
[19:59] <fccf> eurostar: Je vais essayer de vous aider si vous avez un message privé me .. I am using Google Translate
[19:59] <ashmew2> !swap
[19:59] <bullgard4> truthordare: Not to be recommended.
[20:00] <Pici> bullgard4: Why not?
[20:01] <x4d> Hi... I've got a really long log file with a repeating pattern. Each line contains a folder path. What tool should I use to delete all lines that contain a certain character/word ? does grep, vim or emacs do this? if so what do you suggest I do?
[20:01] <bullgard4> Pici: I do not understand your question.
[20:02] <ashmew2> x4d: Is it the same folder path or Different folder paths ?
[20:02] <Flannel> truthordare:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq covers it
[20:02] <msekersi> Knifa: ye, swap seems to be working, but with 12GB ram it isnt writing anything to it since the box is almost doing nothing right now
[20:02] <romafaar> k
[20:02] <rjune_> logs are meant to not be edited.
[20:02] <Knifa> msekersi yeah
[20:02] <x4d> ashmew2: it's a recursive listing of all files from root by rsync
[20:02] <texincali> need help with audio....can ANYONE help me please?
[20:02] <Knifa> msekersi not sure at all :(
[20:02] <truthordare> incase i would be runnning an app that may overuse the ram.. theni need to enable swap on a case by case basis.. i mean i want to disable it when i dont want to use it.. and enable it when i feel the need.. in windows it can be done.. I do understand that having a partition for dwap can reduce fragmentation.. but its so inconvinient.
[20:03] <rjune_> x4d: are you doing rsync in cron?
[20:03] <msekersi> oh, i plugged 2 cables into 2 pci, nics. lets see how he does without those cables xD
[20:03] <blixt> this error repeats on my dell... Can't find a SQUASHFS superblock on sda2..   does this have anything to do with mounting drives?
[20:03] <msekersi> other than that im clueless :P
[20:03] <x4d> rjune_: no, y just ran a rsync with --dry-run to see changes that it would make and saved it to a file with >>
[20:04] <rjune_> I don't know why it would log that command then
[20:04] <fccf> truthordare: see this http://linux.about.com/library/cmd/blcmdl8_swapon.htm
[20:04] <\\`oot> Hi - quick question on sound please?
[20:04] <Knifa> msekersi yeah try running it with bare minimum hardware
[20:04] <fccf> !ask \\`oot
[20:04] <rjune_> x4d: or is it not really a log file(/var/log/*) and rather the file you created.
[20:04] <fccf> !ask | \\`oot
[20:04] <x4d> rjune_: nop it a file I created
[20:05] <rjune_> x4d: ok, that makes more sense grep -v "pattern to omit" file1 > file2
[20:05] <x4d> rjune_: thanks
[20:05] <\\`oot> fccf: Hey again :)  I noticed that my audio is MUCH quieter in Ubuntu than it was in Windows at the same volume level (50%)
[20:05] <rjune_> so if you want to remove all lines that have /var/log in them, do grep -v "\/var\/log" file1 > file2
[20:05] <\\`oot> is that normal?  How do I fix this?
[20:05] <legend2440> i am going to be installing a new nvidia card in my computer with intrepid. i have an ATI card in there now.is there ant trick to this? do i uninstall the fglrx drivers before i replace the ati card with the nvidia card? and will the new card be automatically detected and the proper drivers installed?
[20:05] <\\`oot> I'm already using "alsasound"

[20:13] <fccf> \\`oot: solved all my problems $800 later http://tinypic.com/r/2qlva0w/5

[20:14] <zoom> try it later
[20:15] <mange_> zoom:  here is my sources.list http://pastebin.se/198316

[20:15] <lesshaste> any cuda packages for ubuntu?
[20:16] <fccf> \\`oot: no, but the $77 mixer makes a great pre-amp for linux

[20:17] <imatech> any package suggestions?

[20:20] <b39inn3r> hola
[20:20] <zoom> mange_, you can try to change server in your update manager
[20:20] <\\`oot> fccf: alsamixer is at 100% on all items... GUI mixer (and I've tried a bunch of them) are all at 100%... but the sound is still at about 75% of what Windows cranked out... very odd.

[20:23] <TheDarkstar> but that one only gives one card
[20:23] <TheDarkstar> and not the (sme type) second card
[20:23] <fccf> TheDarkstar: strange .. is it SLI  - I know the SLI cards work .. not sure about seperate cards .. you may end up haveing to write a xorg.conf for the second card to work
[20:24] <fccf> b39inn3r: aqi
[20:24] <TheDarkstar> i've turned off SLI...else the nvidia drivers wouldn't work

[20:24] <scunizi>   mikubuntu double click the speaker icon then from the menu find the item that will add additional sliders.. choose "Front" and "Side".. slide them both up and see if that makes a difference
[20:25] <TheDarkstar> so it schould only be seen as a second card
[20:25] <mikubuntu> scunizi, thx, i will try

[20:28] <felix_> !intel <--- this is actually why i want downgrade to intrepid
[20:29] <felix_> install intrepid server + apt-get install ubuntu-desktop OR install intrepid (desktop) + LAMP ?
[20:29] <mikubuntu> scunizi, i added all the optional sliders in the prefs, set them all to high, no luck
[20:29] <BePhantom> i use intrepid and i didn't upgrade to 9.04 because of intel video problems, just wondering if it's already fixed
[20:29] <badnerd19> guys i have  aproblem in my ubuntu
[20:29] <felix_> BePhantom, not yet
[20:30] <fccf> !ask | badnerd19
[20:30] <ringo999> so I'm trying to manually configure my xorg.conf, but after completing dpkg-reconfigure xorg-server I end up with the standard xorg.conf file?
[20:30] <BePhantom> felix_, oh ok, I'll stick to 8.10 then
[20:30] <badnerd19> ok my screen resolution is 600.400 i can't make it 1280.1024
[20:30] <badnerd19> i dunno how
[20:30] <_Pol_> Hello ;)
[20:30] <Pici> ringo999: Thats normal. New versions of xorg do not require xorg.conf to be populated.
[20:30] <Pici> !x | ringo999 this may help
[20:31] <_Pol_> I'm looking for a way to enable Postfix in Inetd.conf...
[20:31] <fccf> ringo999:  using dpkg-reconfigure xorg-xserver replaces your custom xorg with a generic
[20:31] <ringo999> fccf: so i have to manually edit to get a custom one?
[20:31] <\\`oot> strange question... why can't programs in linux (Ubuntu 9.04) see "mounts" when trying to work with files?  (only files local to the machine)...
[20:31] <remington> ubottu: these instructions are for the UNR?
[20:32] <badnerd19> ok ubottu
[20:32] <fccf> \\`oot:  you will find anything that is mounted in /media/
[20:32] <ringo999> fccf: my orginal problem is getting the keyboard to work properly on a german macbook. i used to run debian and there it worked with a custom xorg.conf
[20:32] <\\`oot> hrmm.. OK
[20:32] <\\`oot> because I went to upload a file from a network share to a web site and it wouldn't let me pick it!  I had to copy to local disk, THEN upload it... teh suck
[20:32] <badnerd19> hey how do i change the system resolution
[20:32] <ringo999> Pici: so where is also the configuration happening then if not in xorg.conf? i.e. the keyboard (which is my problem)
[20:33] <mainstream> Error: premature end of file... what does this mean???
[20:33] <mainstream> im getting it with deluge torrent

[20:33] <\\`oot> mainstream: It means that the file doesn't have a proper EOF
[20:33] <mainstream> what can i do about it?
[20:33] <\\`oot> mainstream: ... for example the whole thing didn't download (missing a chunk at the end somewhere?)
[20:33] <mainstream> no...
[20:33] <\\`oot> mainstream: Re-download... and if it's incomplete as-is... try another torrent
[20:34] <mainstream> i make my own .torrent files
[20:34] <mainstream> and when i share them i only get them on 1 site
[20:34] <mainstream> the others work

[20:52] <Crayboff> Kingsy-Laptop: you tried synaptic?
[20:52] <dehacked79> Crayboff, You're probably right. Now select Find network Printer and enter the IP address.
[20:53] <Crayboff> dehacked79: where it says Host?
[20:53] <Korogiannos> Where can I read up on Desktop "launchers" and where their info is stored?  I want to change the icon on one of my home-made desktop launchers

[20:53] <Gustavo> When I connect my monitor directly to my Ubuntu machine, all the proper resolutions are recognized. The problem is that I'm accessing this machine through a KVM. I guess the EDIM signals aren't getting to the machine.

[20:54] <Steven666> how do i make my dedicated server unhackible?
[20:54] <dehacked79> Crayboff, you can try Windows Printer via SAMBA option.
[20:54] <lineman60> shockf do an ls
[20:54] <william_rowe> any1 here wunna play halo3 with me ?
[20:54] <Kingsy-Laptop> Crayboff - thanks got it
[20:54] <Gustavo> ShockF, it might be helpful to mount the different drives.
[20:54] <lineman60> shockf mount each dir
[20:54] <Gustavo> rather, partitions
[20:54] <lineman60> ve
[20:55] <Crayboff> dehacked79: how would i do that?
[20:55] <genii> william_rowe: Maybe ask in #ubuntu-offtopic and not here.
[20:55] <fccf> ShockF: not with that command
[20:55] <Gustavo> fccf, what command did he use?

[20:55] <genii> Steven666: They can probably give you some tips in #ubuntu-server
[20:55] <mikeh789> sudo fdisk -ls would give more info right??
[20:56] <dehacked79> Crayboff: Just below Find Netwok Printer there is an option called Windows Printer via SAMBA. It will have a box, try browsing 1st. Second option is to enter the IP address and then browse.
[20:56] <fccf> Gustavo: I am not sure - but the command he did use doesn't show partition type

[21:02] <texincali> just waiting for somone that knows the ins and outs of linux audio :-)
[21:02] <jdu> Korogiannos, as fccf mentioned, they're hidden
[21:02] <dehacked79> Crayboff, on the Printer Configuration screen, the one after the admin option, Select Server > Settings > Tick the Show Printers, Publish, allow printing boxes then try again
[21:02] <Korogiannos> fccf: Thankyou
[21:02] <dhendrix> another question in my journey to learn ubuntu and debian kernel packaging. I just did "apt-get source linux-source-2.6.30" using Karmic sources and tried running make-kpkg. It complains because linux-2.6.30/ubuntu/gfs is missing a Makefile. Is this normal for ubuntu kernels (maybe there's a package I missed?)
[21:03] <nikitis> Does the ubuntu net_install support lvm setup?
[21:03] <fccf> dhendrix: that question would be better answered in #kernel
[21:04] <dhendrix> fccf:  Thanks! I'll try out #kernel (or better yet, #ubuntu-kernel if it exists)
[21:04] <anodesni> Does anybody here own a spinpoint f2 ecogreen?
[21:04] <Korogiannos> fccf: In what directory are the hidden files? I've looked in ~/Desktop
[21:05] <Pindakaas> does anyone know a good alternative for visual studio?
[21:05] <cabrey> !anybody
[21:05] <texincali> !audio
[21:05] <cabrey> Pindakaas, what do you program in?
[21:05] <texincali> see if i can navigate through this tutorial:-\
[21:05] <Pindakaas> C++ currently
[21:06] <Crayboff> dehacked79: i'm using wicd instead of network manager, could that be having any effect with this?
[21:06] <anodesni> does the spinpoint f2 ecogreen has a jumper to set sata 150 mode?
[21:06] <cabrey> Pindakaas, GUI's also?
[21:06] <Pindakaas> cabrey: no
[21:06] <Crayboff> and dehacked79, same problem as before, even after those three boxes are checked
[21:07] <cabrey> Pindakaas, ok, you should try Eclipse. I know Eclipse is very popular & you can find it in Applications > Add & Remove
[21:07] <bradly> Any reason I can't fast forward of scrub forward in Rhythmbox for downloaded podcasts?
[21:07] <bradly> ^of^or
[21:07] <Crayboff> dehacked79: i have to go now
[21:07] <Crayboff> thanks for your help though
[21:07] <arber4444> hello everyone i need help about camera drivers i have a webcam
[21:07] <fccf> Korogiannos: the actual link on Desktop is a text file which can be read by going to terminal and cd'ing into Desktop... find the file that says progname.desktop and typing sudo nano progname.desktop
[21:08] <Pindakaas> cabrey: ok thanks:) I'll have a look at it
[21:08] <arber4444> hello everyone i need help about camera drivers i have a webcam

[21:08] <ShockF> hi guys how do i make my vista partiton auto mount here is the error i get http://paste.ubuntu.com/192912/plain/
[21:08] <dehacked79> Crayboff, I can't say. Can you browse to the printer on the network? I'm troubleshooting according to the methods I use to find Printers shared on Xp boxes in AD. Maybe we're going about it wrong. 1. Ping the printer or browse to it. Once that is done, lets continue.
[21:09] <bradly> Is there a podcast player other than Rhythmbox that would allow me to fast forward downloaded podcasts?
[21:09] <texincali> looking for somone that can help me with this tutorial on setting up my soundcard
[21:09] <cabrey> bradly, take a look at Miro, it is basically a standalone 'Internet TV/Audio' app
[21:10] <bradly> Thanks cabrey. Seems weird that Rhythmbox would be able to fastforword downloaded podcast, though
[21:10] <dehacked79> texincali: Does your sound not work at all|?
[21:11] <texincali> no it doesnt
[21:11] <texincali> not even the drums when i load into ubuntu
[21:12] <OldFarter> Anyone know anything about drawing pads?
[21:12] <OldFarter> like wacom and artpad?
[21:12] <Falen> hallo
[21:13] <OldFarter> ho
[21:13] <Kingsy-Laptop> has anyone in here used kate on ubuntu?
[21:13] <fccf> OldFarter: wacom has been supported for years... and there is also alot of info on the net about how to get them to work
[21:13] <fccf> Kingsy-Laptop: Yes
[21:13] <Falen> I'm porting a little internet booking app from windows to linux ( ubuntu )
[21:13] <Kingsy-Laptop> I am trying to use regex
[21:13] <dehacked79> texincali: Under System > Preferences > Sound. Do you have any sound card name under the drop down boxes?
[21:13] <texincali> no
[21:13] <Kingsy-Laptop> fccf - any chance of explaining how I can use regex in it?
[21:13] <Falen> and to stop anyone from using the computer when they're not logged in I use kiosk mode
[21:13] <OldFarter> fccf: Its an aiptech thing.... i plugged it in and it worked right away..... kind of
[21:14] <Falen> is there a kiosk mode in linux?
[21:14] <cabrey> OldFarter, I have one of those
[21:14] <gartral_> hi all, I was helping ShockF but we hit an NTFS auto mounting problem i don't know how to fix, can someone with a tad more expertise look over the situation, please?
[21:14] <cabrey> OldFarter, that tablet?
[21:14] <OldFarter> Falen: no kiosk mode.... many ways to do linux in kiosk
[21:14] <OldFarter> 10000
[21:14] <OldFarter> tablet is 1000 something...
[21:14] <lineman60> kingsy-laptop as some one used to say I have a problem and i try to fix it with Regular expressions. Now i have 2 problems
[21:14] <Gustavo> When I connect my monitor directly to my Ubuntu machine, all the proper resolutions are recognized. The problem is that I'm accessing this machine through a KVM. Ubuntu is doing an awesome job at auto-detecting the monitor, but the KVM ruins that. I tried forcing the native resolution in the xorg.conf file, but whenever I do that, the image is corrupted (I'm guessing the timing signals are...
[21:14] <Gustavo> ...incorrect) . Any suggestions?
[21:14] <OldFarter> 10000u actualy
[21:15] <Falen> OldFarter, like how?
[21:15] <cabrey> OldFarter, AFAIK 10000 is just a size different, i have a 9000 something
[21:15] <Kingsy-Laptop> lol yea but I am not trying to fix a problem.. I am trying  to learn
[21:15] <texincali> dehacked79: no im seeing no soundcards at all
[21:15] <fccf> Kingsy-Laptop: read up http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression
[21:15] <cabrey> OldFarter, let me go get it, never tried it with linux
[21:15] <OldFarter> Falen: what are you trying to do with your kiosk?
[21:15] <konza> how to install flash player................. pls help
[21:15] <dehacked79> texincali: I'd say the sound card isn't recognized by Ubuntu. You might need drivers.
[21:15] <Kingsy-Laptop> fccf - basically I have written a little text file in kate and I wanna know how to run regex on it...
[21:15] <baloon> hi
[21:15] <baloon> :)
[21:16] <OldFarter> problem with the tablet is its treated kind of like a touch pad
[21:16] <texincali> dehacked79: its an audigy4.... and it worked before i rebooted and now nothing
[21:16] <konza> how to install flash player................. pls help
[21:16] <cabrey> OldFarter, I see what you mean
[21:16] <Falen> When nobody is logged in, there is a login dialog, when you login you can use the computer for X minutes and then it goes back to the empty login screen
[21:16] <cabrey> OldFarter, I had this problem in OS X
[21:16] <Falen> better said, "locked" login screen
[21:16] <Spasysheep> following these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization#Custom Background for GNOME How do I get files from my normal disk into the mounted squashfs?
[21:16] <imatech> so I want to implement a linux server in a small windows network to be able to do backup and disaster recovery...would ubuntu be a good choice for this?
[21:16] <fccf> Kingsy-Laptop:  I don't do people's homework... if you know anything about what you are doing then the link I gave you should be all you need to know
[21:17] <cabrey> OldFarter, after around 8 billion google searches I found an obscure driver that worked with OS X, but i didnt see a linux driver :/
[21:17] <baloon> hi
[21:17] <OldFarter> in windows xp (in VirtualBox)  if i put the pen in the center.... its always consistently in the center of the screen too.... but in bunters.... its all over the place
[21:17] <Kingsy-Laptop> fccf - lol its not "homework" lol
[21:17] <dehacked79> texincali: Option 1 Reboot and hope it comes up.
[21:17] <lineman60> imatech is this personal or professonal how comfortable are you with linux
[21:17] <texincali> dehacked79: allready tried that
[21:17] <cabrey> OldFarter, did you see this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AiptekTablet?
[21:17] <liamo1> is there a command which returns the runlevel?
[21:18] <imatech> it's for a small church...fairly comfortable with linus
[21:18] <OldFarter> Falen, are the session supose to be wiped upon reset?
[21:18] <dehacked79> texincali: k. What did you change since the last boot where it actually worked?
[21:18] <ikonia> liamo1: who -r
[21:18] <texincali> nothing
[21:18] <liamo1> thanks ikonia
[21:18] <Falen> OldFarter, if it's possible to do then yeah
[21:18] <Kingsy-Laptop> the point is I am not wanting anything to help me with the regex, I am learning it myself, I wanna know how I test out what I have done on kate.. does anyone know?
[21:18] <Falen> It's not a requirement
[21:18] <lineman60> imatech ya, (if you dont want to pay for support, and know if it breaks it's your probelm)
[21:18] <Falen> I don't do it in windows
[21:18] <grkblood13> does anyone know of a program that can change your voice?
[21:18] <Spasysheep> following these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization#Custom Background for GNOME How do I get files from my normal disk into the mounted squashfs?
[21:19] <ikonia> Kingsy-Laptop: kate is a text editor - not a test tool
[21:19] <texincali> it wasnt working...got some help and it started working...i thanked him....loaded into windows to make some music with reason...then booted back into linux and now its not working
[21:19] <OldFarter> Falen, i've done many semi slim clients and kiosks with read only root and autoreset of sessions
[21:19] <lineman60> imatech just set up a smaba server
[21:19] <liamo1> what is the runlevel that a fresh install of ubuntu runs at?
[21:19] <OldFarter> both timed and untimed
[21:19] <Kingsy-Laptop> ikonia - oh yea I know, I just thought that it was able to let the user write something in it and then run regex on it?
[21:19] <unop> liamo1, 2
[21:19] <Kingsy-Laptop> ikonia - not possible?
[21:19] <liamo1> thanks unop
[21:19] <ikonia> Kingsy-Laptop: how can a text editor run "run" stuff ?
[21:20] <ikonia> Kingsy-Laptop: it's a text editor - you need something to it from, and against
[21:20] <Falen> OldFarter, cool, you got any info or anything that I can use?
[21:20] <Kingsy-Laptop> yea I suppose your right,
[21:20] <OldFarter> cabrey, i've tried that link
[21:20] <OldFarter> Falen, where are you at?
[21:20] <Kingsy-Laptop> ikonia - so what would you suggest to run regex commands?
[21:20] <fccf> Kingsy-Laptop: you ask about kate ... then you ask about regex ... two very different worlds ... regex is rather offtopic
[21:20] <distatica> Kingsy-Laptop: are you meaning to write some text, perform a search using regex and then see if it matches?
[21:20] <konza> how to install flash player................. pls help
[21:20] <Falen> OldFarter, how do you mean?
[21:21] <dehacked79> texincali: Any idea what you did?
[21:21] <OldFarter> like where in the world?
[21:21] <ikonia> Kingsy-Laptop: something with regex capability, perl, sed, apache, squid....what ever you want
[21:21] <monkey_d_luffy> can anyone suggest an image viewer for gif animation files (that play the animation)?  I use usually kuickshow for images (static) and comix for images in archives. But is there anything for viewing a directory of gif animations?
[21:21] <gartral_> did you catch the other's instructions?
[21:21] <texincali> when i use the command aplay -l i get aplay: device_list:217: no soundcards found...
[21:21] <imatech> Lineman: what are your suggestions on back up and recovery?
[21:21] <OldFarter> you know.... outside of the monitor your looking at
[21:21] <Falen> umm sweden?
[21:21] <Kingsy-Laptop> distatica - exactly.. search and maybe as I get a little more competent other stuff
[21:21] <OldFarter> jævlar
[21:22] <distatica> Kingsy-Laptop: what you can do is echo the string, and then pipe to egrep program which takes regex' as arguments
[21:22] <B4ckBOne> what do i need to install to get a dell 1490 up and running?
[21:22] <distatica> so from the command line
[21:22] <Falen> whoa norsk?
[21:22] <liamo1> I am trying to install cuda on ubuntu 9.04. I need to shut down gnome. /etc/init.d/gdm stop causes my system to hang. Is there any other way to prevent gnome from loading?
[21:22] <OldFarter> I got a slimed down slack image laying around somewhere
[21:22] <fccf> !no | Falen
[21:22] <Kingsy-Laptop> hmmm maybe I should learn it through php, I have a localhost installed.. nevermind I will take a look at that..
[21:22] <dehacked79> texincali: Boot into Win and check if the sound still works there.
[21:22] <Kingsy-Laptop> thanks for the info ppl
[21:22] <texincali> it does
[21:23] <texincali> audio works fine in windows
[21:23] <lindummy> hey guys - I did the pendrivelinux install of latest ubuntu to a usb key (with persistent settings) - ubuntu is pretty awesome!  however, I made the mistake of installing the nvidia proprietary driver, which is stupid when I plan to use this usb key on multiple systems.  on my hp laptop dv9000, for instance, I can't set the screen resolution to the system's native screen resolution now...
[21:23] <texincali> just not in linux
[21:23] <distatica> Kingsy-Laptop, search I believe is generally all the power you're going to get out of kate, of course I use gnome so what do I know. I am getting the impression you're not sure exactly what you want because you're too new to it. Start by reading some basic introductions to what regex actually is, and play with echo piped to egrep on the command line
[21:23] <scunizi> liamo1: before initiating that command you have to do it from a tty.. ctrl+alt+F2 .. login and then from there issue that command
[21:23] <distatica> Kingsy-Laptop: do you know how to pipe between commands? with |
[21:23] <dehacked79> texincali: Someone with more expertise needs to help you re-detect your sound I'd say.
[21:23] <texincali> i agree :-P
[21:23] <liamo1> thank you! thank you! thank you scunizi

[21:25] <AceKing> Can someone help me with a graphics driver problem? After I installed 9.04 my screen resolution was low, like 640 x 480. When I checked "Hardware Drivers" the Nvidia drivers showed up and I clicked 180 (recommended). After restarting it goes up to the point where it says Ubuntu with the progress bar then the screen goes black. Any ideas?
[21:25] <distatica> Kingsy-Laptop: regular expressions are just a way to tell a computer what kind of pattern you're looking for in text, it's not somethign that really 'works' for you, so much as a language to tell a computer what you're searching for.
[21:25] <texincali> if i had a blank disk id download latest ubuntu and try reinstalling as my install disk was stolen :-\

[21:38] <billybigrigger> ahh ok
[21:38] <ceil420> billybigrigger, it's not a hack, just an exploit that may disconnect some clients
[21:38] <crunchbang> quit
[21:38] <crunchbang> exit
[21:38] <ceil420> billybigrigger, old versions of mIRC would crash, for example
[21:38] <Aquina> I confirm the activities of "tiphergane"
[21:38] <billybigrigger> well i can't close the send window
[21:38] <Hecate> so do i
[21:39] <billybigrigger> ahh
[21:39] <Aquina> I set him on my ignore list.
[21:39] <ceil420> billybigrigger, you have to close the error window, then the send window
[21:39] <Flannel> Guys, he's already been removed.  No confirmation, discussion, etc needed.
[21:39] <konza> what tiphergane did?
[21:39] <Hecate> xchat appears to be semi vulnerable.
[21:39] <LjL> ok fellows - THIS PERSON WAS BANNED JUST AFTER DOING THE DCC. IT WASN'T DANGEROUS. YOU CAN STOP REPORTING IT.
[21:39] <Brentv911> Greetings everyone..  I'm looking for a media player that will work on Ubuntu that will play DVD's.  i've tried totem, but i can't get it to work

[21:39] <Aquina> His endpoint is a server somewhere in Paris maybe?
[21:40] <arber4444> > webcamera drivers fast i need them im new in ubuntu
[21:40] <billybigrigger> he didn't crash me either
[21:40] <Hecate> ceil420, yeah, mine didnt either, but it opened a window that's too big for my windowmanager to display properly

[21:40] <Seeker`> billybigrigger: language
[21:40] <lindummy> can you guys plz make an #i-hate-tiphergane chan to continue tiphergane-related discussion plz?
[21:40] <billybigrigger> Hecate::: use alt + click on the window anywhere to move it
[21:40] <LjL> there was no reason why that would crash anybody, really. how about dropping the topic?
[21:40] <jacekowski> he's still sending that dcc
[21:40] <lineman60> just annoyed me
[21:40] <ceil420> Hecate, oh. i just right clicked the titlebar and 'close' it (e16)
[21:40] <BiosElement> Just cancel it.
[21:40] <Hecate> already got rid of it, but thanks.

[21:41] <billybigrigger> arber4444::: no need to repeat
[21:41] <Hecate> xchat just could limit the length of filenames it displays to prevent such annoying windows.
[21:41] <billybigrigger> arber4444::: and "webcamera drivers" isn't that helpful
[21:41] <arber4444> oke lol

[21:42] <benovic> i connected a windows computer to eth0 (cable), how can i quickly set this up so i can somehow "route" the like: windows PC -> (cable) -> ubuntu box -> (wlan) -> router -> internets
[21:42] <sylvanus_> can help please?
[21:42] <konza> what tiphergane did?????
[21:42] <monitor> bart
[21:42] <Flannel> konza: Its not important.
[21:43] <dolfly> 好阿
[21:43] <lineman60> benovic quickly i dont know but you want to play with iptables (the linux firewall)
[21:43] <LjL> !cn | dolfly
[21:44] <lineman60> benovic you will also need a xover cable
[21:44] <konza> what tiphergane did?????
[21:44] <benovic> lineman60: oh i think this is going to deep... (no experience)
[21:44] <fccf> lindummy: sorry I had a quick meeting in the real world ... where were we...?
[21:44] <coolsc81> hello all

[21:44] <coolsc81> how is everyone
[21:44] <ceil420> konza, it doesn't matter
[21:44] <coolsc81> is there a person here named Will
[21:44] <benovic> lineman60: so without x-ed cable it wont work?
[21:44] <dehacked79> benovic: Default Gateway on Win box is Ubuntu Box. Default GW on Ubuntu is Router. You need to figure out how to forward all request in Ubuntu or alternately check if Application > Add/Remove Doesn't have something like that in the list already.
[21:44] <LjL> !offtopic | coolsc81
[21:45] <sylvanus_> Okay I'll just go blow my brains out because I'm a total failure and nobody wants this idiot with anything!
[21:45] <billybigrigger> cooldude::: why don't you try a /whois Will
[21:45] <benovic> dehacked79: what word to search for?
[21:45] <super_hoops> youtube's rubbing like a dog dragging its arse along the ground, is there anything i can to do make it run..?
[21:45] <lineman60> benovic the best way to learn, crossover cable they swap pins allows you to plug one computer to another with out a hub (old) or switch
[21:45] <sebsebseb> !language |  super_hoops

[21:45] <TheDarkstar> hey people, i finaly have my desktop running with 3 monitor. Only i can't find a way to change the monitor's postion....can onyone give me a hint on how to do this?
[21:45] <super_hoops> lol sorry
[21:45] <billybigrigger> benovic::: make your own xover cable if you have to
[21:45] <billybigrigger> benovic:::
[21:46] <dehacked79> Internet connection sharing. BUt you'll still need that X-Over cable.
[21:46] <billybigrigger> benovic::: you'll just need to change the wiring in the cable, to go from regular cat5e to xover, google home made xover cable :P
[21:46] <benovic> well if i had a spare, long enough cable i would plug it directly into the router ;)
[21:46] <billybigrigger> benovic::: it's pretty easy to make your own
[21:46] <ceil420> swap green and orange

[21:53] <deeperDATA> just some
[21:53] <troubled> its twit.am/listen for icecast
[21:53] <deeperDATA> not all
[21:53] <deeperDATA> sometimes i can get by without any images corrupted
[21:53] <ShockF> dehacked i tried tht but it say i dont have the permission
[21:54] <seko> ceil420, ubuntu isn't listed in available OS list.
[21:54] <deeperDATA> then i'll have 5 out of a batch of 20
[21:54] <ceil420> weird :o
[21:54] <chocobanana> deeperDATA: wha's the Ubuntu version and filesystem you're copying to?
[21:54] <seko> is there a way to make grub as default loader?
[21:54] <deeperDATA> the card is FAT 32, the system is ext 4 with ubuntu 9.04
[21:55] <deeperDATA> however.... this has been occuring since i was using 8.04 with ext 3
[21:55] <chocobanana> deeperDATA: oh...
[21:55] <deeperDATA> maybe card reader driver?
[21:55] <troubled> fccf: the new url work better now?

[21:56] <troubled> fccf: yup, thats the one. sorry bout the url confusion :) he's on every week with Randal Schwartz now (perl book author/programmer) at this time as a cohost

[21:57] <cypha> can someone PLEASE tell me why my extended desktop is not working?
[21:57] <chocobanana> wubrgamer: not sure, but you can accomplish that with www.dictionary.com :D
[21:57] <cypha> when i put my mouse on the second desktop, it gets stuck
[21:58] <wubrgamer> chocobanana,
[21:58] <mrwes> bmorris, do you have the proper rights?
[21:58] <ryankrizan> bmorris, You have it backwards
[21:58] <cypha> ...it can't leave that desktop
[21:58] <wubrgamer> is there no OFFLINE dictionary for ubuntu? ugh, what about laptop users?
[21:58] <ryankrizan> try ln -s my/new/dir my/dir
[21:58] <wubrgamer> I LOVED that feature on MAC
[21:58] <dehacked79> ShockF: You need to do a bit of reading. I R not knowing but I suspect your vista drive is encrypted. Then again, what I know about Vista is dangerous.

[21:59] <konza> cypha, you mean to shutdown
[21:59] <cypha> no
[21:59] <cypha> log out, like i would do from the menu
[21:59] <cypha> so i can type my username and password
[21:59] <cypha> without restarting
[22:00] <konza> cypha, you have to switch to another user rite?
[22:00] <cypha> yeah
[22:00] <konza> cypha,  su  username

[22:00] <cypha> so that i can reset it
[22:00] <cypha> i mean restart X

[22:00] <FloodBot2> cypha: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[22:04] <Rabbitbunny> AceKing: there's tutorials all over the web, it used to be pretty common.

[22:22] <the_dark_warrio> kerebrus: usb
[22:22] <lstarnes> kryle: is there a .iso contained within that?
[22:22] <ARMENIAN> guntbert: well you see, I upload pictures to it for things such as craigslist, gets kind of annoying going to the site and everything and then browsing to the file
[22:22] <hippychick> kerebrus, its not just my party, there is 8 of us "suppost" to be organising it and we have to fit everyone in our small house
[22:22] <fccf> kryle: probably isn't a live cd image .. and if it is not ubuntu it is offtopic
[22:22] <frostburn> kryle, was it the netbook remix?
 nope, i cant open the file,, hmm
[22:23] <hippychick> seems like its all been left to me though :( and i only have 2 days to do it
[22:23] <the_dark_warrio> kerebrus: sorry, I've got to go now. I will look for this later. Thanks, cya
[22:23] <kerebrus> hippychick: excuses excuses if you didnt want any of us there you could have told us we could take it "runs to closet to cry"

[22:28] <tryggvib> Hello, I am trying to use evolution to send an encrypted message (using gpg) to a mailing list so that people on the list (who I have in my keyring) can decrypt it... any help or guidance where I can read more about it
[22:28] <guntbert> ARMENIAN: looking into it - give me a few moments please
[22:28] <ARMENIAN> guntbert: yeah, np
[22:28] <fccf> tryggvib: those users will also need the gpg key file that you use to encode the message
[22:29] <erUSUL> tryggvib: you can only encrypt a msg to one recipient at time
[22:29] <tryggvib> fccf: what do you mean?
[22:29] <sjefen6> sry, I have a bac connection... did you say anything?
[22:29] <erUSUL> tryggvib: so only one will be able to decrypt it the one in the From: line
[22:30] <tryggvib> erUSUL: I know gpg supports something like -r and I know that others have done this, sending messages to me via the mailing list
[22:30] <tlyu> gpg is able to encrypt to multiple recipients
[22:30] <tryggvib> tlyu: yes, isn't that the -r option... how can I apply it to a mailing list using evolution (is that possible)?
[22:31] <ARMENIAN> guntbert: it seems it runs with photo-upload but even that gives me error saying File "/usr/bin/photo-upload", line 27, in <module>

[22:49] <carpii> kubuntu 8.04
[22:49] <bbntbb> i voluntarily accept any help for my netgear wn111 card :)
[22:49] <flpwch> i'd suggest uninstalling your flash
[22:49] <TOM1> =/
[22:49] <flpwch> and installing from the flash-nonfree package in your package manager
[22:49] <syntac> my flash is working (i'm on a 64 bit system)
[22:49] <TOM1> so i cant go on youtube
[22:49] <randabis> my flash works too (64bit)
[22:49] <flpwch> try uninstalling flash and reinstalling it.
[22:50] <TOM1> ok
[22:50] <TOM1> how do i do that
[22:50] <mib_98iq6j> hey im trying to use wicd to connect to my schools wireless netw.  All of the options for networks say hidden next to them and when i try to connect it hangs at obtaining ip addr.
[22:50] <DarkRavin> how do i manage my devices
[22:50] <mib_98iq6j> last time sorry
[22:50] <jonny2807> i have the same prob Tom, no audio in flash
[22:50] <scruffymogwai> kryle: mount -t vfat /dev/myfatdevice /media/mymountpoint
[22:50] <flpwch> TOM1: search for flash in your package manager
[22:50] <TOM1> okay
[22:50] <flpwch> synaptic
[22:50] <flpwch> unless you are on kubuntu or something
[22:51] <flpwch> you'll probably find a package called flash-nonfree
[22:51] <jonny2807> (tom hope u gonna be luckier than me, i did not fix with flsh audio)
[22:51] <guntbert> mib_98iq6j: did you try with the network-manager-applet too (I don't know about wicd)
[22:52] <kabdotinfo> How do I get webcam to work in 9.04? Microsoft LifeCam VX3000 to be specific.
[22:52] <scruffymogwai> I found I had to uninstall flash, and download and install it from Adobe. It has been behaving itself since then
[22:52] <bbntbb> grats
[22:52] <flpwch> scruffymogwai: i had it the other way
[22:52] <flpwch> installing from the site had weird problems from me, using the package provided in aptitude gave it to me.

[22:53] <flpwch> s/gues/guess
[22:53] <sonium> no
[22:54] <sonium> I guessed the same
[22:54] <flpwch> then i haven't a clue
[22:57] <furythor> I got solution to my problem, which hopefully will work.
[22:57] <Gustavo> dpkg-recongigure xserver-xorg doesn't ask me any questions about my monitor. How can I fix this? I'm behind a KVM and Ubuntu isn't auto-detecting the monitor.
[22:58] <aldo_unix> Hi!!! everybody....:)
[22:59] <Jeruvy> Gustavo: try this without the kvm, some have been known to interfere with proper detection
[23:00] <Gustavo> Jeruvy, I connected the monitor directly to the box, and it gives me all the appropriate resolutions. If I run dpkg-reconfigure under these conditions, I get the same result: The first question asks about a kernel frame buffer -- absolutely no other questions about the monitor.

[23:03] <greg__> hi guys hope someone can help me - i'm running an asus eeebox on jaunty as a myth frontend.  problem is the hard drive is constantly reading/writing/clicking - don't know why.  any suggestions?
[23:03]  * Apakulu wants to talk about some C/C++ programming!
[23:04] <fccf> Apakulu: go to #gcc
[23:05] <cankoy> Gustavo: there's a #kvm channel, maybe they have some clue
[23:05] <onefriedrice> gidna_: gnuchess
[23:06] <gidna_> it's not good.. I want one in which I can insert moves
[23:07] <fcn> gidna_, glChess ( http://live.gnome.org/glChess ) with GNU chess engine ( http://www.gnu.org/software/chess/ ) beats mw everyt
[23:07] <fcn> *me every time :)
[23:07] <Apakulu> 1450 -/+ members and no1 is talking???
[23:07] <cankoy> greg__: check the output of dmesg, for possible hd problems
[23:07] <ARMENIAN> elexodus: specify wireless or wired?
[23:08] <lineman60> greg__ swap, does it boot? any smart errors ? ya what cankoy said
[23:08] <bernz> what's the easiest way to configure moblock (via mobloquer, or editing some configs) to allow all outgoing TCP connections, and certain incoming ones? (the whitelist seems to be oriented more toward IPs than ports)
[23:08] <guntbert> !ot | Apakulu
[23:08] <fcn> i have an sd card with broken fat table. i am used to use it together with my cellphone. i cannot even see it when i plug it in "tail -f /var/log/syslog"
[23:09] <Apakulu> oh ma bad! peace :-D
[23:09] <gidna_> fcn : this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Glchess-game.png ?     it seems the same of gnuchess
[23:09] <lineman60> bernz you look at ipchanes  drop the ports you dont want
[23:09] <bernz> lineman60, 'ipchanes'? more detail, please :-)
[23:09] <lineman60> Ipchains*
[23:10] <bernz> lineman60, is that in the config files?
[23:10] <krammer> hello, grub loading please wait error 22 any thoughts?
[23:10] <greg__> cankoy & lineman - not sure what i'm looking for.  here's my pastebin of dmesg - accessing the system just now over a remote x session (don't have kb or mouse hooked up to it)  http://pastebin.com/m8c25014
[23:10] <mathew> I am having a problem with ubuntu which may effect my decission over windows/ubuntu.... The problem is that when i leave for a while i lock the session , the screen saver does what it does when i come back i press a key or move the mouse and it crashes a full system crash num lock , caps lock doesnt work and i have to reboot loosing what i had open this nerver happened in windows
[23:10] <Jeruvy> !grub > krammer
[23:10] <guntbert> lineman60: did you mean iptables? ipchains is soo old
[23:11] <bernz> guntbert, lineman60, oh yeah, i was expecting to hear 'iptables' -- haven't learned 'em yet, so i guess now's the time?
[23:11] <krammer> Jeruvy, thanks
[23:11] <lineman60> ya
[23:11] <fcn> gidna_, what kind of a thing are you looking for?
[23:12] <lineman60> well they make nice editors if you are to lazy to learn
[23:12] <gidna_> I want a programm In which I can enter some position like an endgame
[23:12] <lineman60> and you dont wnat to anything fun like set up masquraiding
[23:12] <lineman60>  /not that hard
[23:12] <bernz> lineman60, i'm happy with whatever :-)
[23:13] <bernz> lineman60, just give me a hint: is moblock something that uses iptables, or something that goes in a chain of things, of which iptables is also a link?
[23:13] <Lion> hi
[23:13] <DarkRavin> can someone please help me -- i cant get online my network manager says device not managed and i was on Auto eth0
[23:13] <guntbert> mathew: it could be *one* screensaver..., try to choose any one at first (not "random") or disable screensaver altogether (to rule some things out, not as definite solution)
[23:13] <mathew> Any idea why my unbuntu crashes after i try to end the screen saver?
[23:13] <mathew> oh
[23:13] <Lion> hi
[23:14] <bernz> mathew, i've had good luck with the 'molecule' screen saver (plus it's fun to watch)
[23:14] <mathew> its set to one not sure which ill check and logs i can check for information?
[23:14] <guntbert> bernz: you could look at fw-builder
[23:15] <bernz> guntbert, okay, will do, thanks
[23:15] <lineman60> bernz just use azurius
[23:16] <lordbah> Anyone using Dell SX2210 monitor? Does the webcam "just work" with Intrepid, or would you have to go driver hunting?
[23:16] <Lion> lordbah
[23:16] <bernz> lineman60, i kinda like to avoid java as much as possible, and also i like to understand what's happening, so i don't mind doing it the "hard way" (configuring stuff manually)
[23:16] <Lion> lordbah
[23:16] <mathew> woah that matrix screen server looks good
[23:16] <Lion> lordbah
[23:16] <Lion> lordbah
[23:16] <cypha> can someone tell me how i can start google gadgets when the computer starts WITHOUT SHOWING IT
[23:16] <mathew> lol *saver
[23:16] <FloodBot2> Lion: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:16] <cypha> please hilight me
[23:16] <cypha> !
[23:16] <bernz> lineman60, thanks anyway, though... btw, azureus is now called 'vuze' ;-)
[23:16] <mathew> anyone good with webdav in ubuntu i cant get it to connect to something i can in windows
[23:17] <Lion> <mathew
[23:17] <Lion> u hace the drivers?
[23:17] <Lion> have*
[23:17] <lineman60> next thing you'll tell me it's no longer gaim  ;-)
[23:17] <mathew> well it connects asks for password but then screws up
[23:17] <Ax-Ax> how can i test my speakers with a sinus sweep?
[23:18] <flpwch> Ax-Ax: get a sinus sweep sound
[23:18] <flpwch> play it in mplayer or rythmbox or whatever
[23:18] <Ax-Ax> ohlol
[23:18] <mathew> do i assume i have the drivers due to it connecting and asking for password
[23:18] <Ax-Ax> that's kinda lame :D
[23:18] <flpwch> i'm sure google could help you with that
[23:19] <DarkRavin> is DasEi here
[23:19] <bernz> Ax-Ax, you might like audacity; it has generator functionality
[23:19] <Like> :)
[23:19] <bernz> Ax-Ax, you'll be able to program your own sweep (freq, etc, and more complicated if you like), and then play it (and save it), and do fx on it, etc :-)
[23:19] <slipttees> wp1200 work on jaunty ?
[23:20] <greg__> lineman - my swap not even being used.  system idle is using up 700mb of the 2gig ram available....
[23:20] <DarkRavin> can anybody tell me how to get to device manager
[23:20] <rockyrock> hi guys, I downloaded and installed a package using Synaptic and I have Dialup connection. Now I want to install the same package on different machines. How can I get the package from my computer? I don't want to download it again cuz that can take hours!
[23:21] <cabrey> !aptoncd
[23:21] <fccf> rockyrock: you will find the package in /var/cache/apt/archive
[23:21] <slipttees> !waveplus
[23:21] <tonsofpcs> DarkRavin: uh... 1, install windows, 2 ask in ##windows
[23:21] <bernz> DarkRavin, you can install an app from 'add/remove' called 'device manager'; probably what you're looking for
[23:21] <cankoy> greg__: sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda
[23:21] <fcn> gidna_, you want something like a half-played game, did i get it true?
[23:21] <bernz> tonsofpcs, no, there's a 'device manager' for linux too
[23:21] <parolang> Wow, this channel must be kind of stressful :)
[23:21] <tonsofpcs> bernz: lspci ?
[23:22] <tonsofpcs> dmesg ?
[23:22] <bernz> tonsofpcs, nah, an actual GUI app that shows a tree of devices
[23:22] <Paddy_EIRE> tonsofpcs: there is a gui I cannot remember the name
[23:22] <greg__> cankoy - smartctl command not found
[23:22] <bernz> (i guess that's what he wants)
[23:22] <Paddy_EIRE> tonsofpcs: just a moment
[23:22] <DarkRavin> Tonsofpcs its not windows it ubuntu and i cant get my Auto eth0 to work
[23:22] <user01> for a p4 is that a 686 or 386 iso?
[23:22] <Jeruvy> !smart | greg__
[23:22] <rockyrock> fccf: I didn't find it :(
[23:23] <bernz> it will show up under 'Applications | System | Device Manager' once installed
[23:23] <tonsofpcs> hardware lister you mean?
[23:23] <tonsofpcs> [lshw]
[23:23] <TeddyBear> window 7
[23:23] <greg__> !?huh do i install smart first then and then run the smartctl -a /dev/sda command?
[23:23] <ipodman715> darn, how would I output only text within parentheses to a new text file? :(  using grep, sed, or something else?
[23:23] <Arcitens> I'm having a problem with Rhythmbox. Trying to add a podcast URL and getting a "could not parse feed" error. Happened in both Rhythmbox .0.12.0 and .0.12.2 on Ubuntu 9.04 - I saw something about this on the forums, but didn't see any solutions. Does anyone have any advice for adding podcast feeds to rhythmbox?
[23:23] <tag> Are there backward compatibility issues with open office.org 3?  Every time I open one of my documents since switching to Jaunty...open office freezes.
[23:23] <bernz> tonsofpcs, basically, it's a hardware lister, yep, but allows surfing through the tree to get details on each device
[23:23] <greg__> sorry i'm a total noob
[23:23] <cankoy> greg__: no, the pkg name smartmontools
[23:23] <Paddy_EIRE> !info gnome-device-manager | tonsofpcs
[23:23] <tag> if it doesn't freeze as soon as it opens the document, it freezes as soon as I scroll
[23:24] <fccf> rockyrock: that is where it would be
[23:24] <greg__> cankoy - installing smartmontools just now
[23:24] <Paddy_EIRE> tonsofpcs: what is your question anyway.. what are you trying to do?
[23:24] <fccf> rockyrock: you can use aptoncd see ubottu's not one page up
[23:24] <tonsofpcs> bernz: lshw does too..
[23:24] <tonsofpcs> Paddy_EIRE: i had no question
[23:24] <Paddy_EIRE> ah
[23:24] <tag> This isn't okay
[23:24] <tag> because I use open office daily
[23:24] <bernz> tonsofpcs, fair enough, but that requires the shell (oooh, scary ;-)
[23:24] <Paddy_EIRE> tonsofpcs: the command line is the best way to do it
[23:25] <bernz> Paddy_EIRE, i think he agrees; he was answering someone else (forgot who)
[23:25] <user01> oh there is no 686 platform?
[23:25] <DarkRavin> how can i fix my internet i had internet then i rebooted and now its gone
[23:25] <Paddy_EIRE> bernz: ah silly me :)
[23:25] <tonsofpcs> bernz: there's a gui lshw... [ezix]
[23:25] <rockyrock> fccf: what's aptoncd?
[23:25] <DarkRavin> oh and i tried to setup a adsl
[23:25] <roler> how do I re-install grub from an ubuntu live cd if I have messed up the mbr?
[23:25] <rockyrock> !aptoncd
[23:25] <bernz> Paddy_EIRE, no worries, you came up with the ubottu info, which was helpful (it was for 'DarkRavin', i see now)
[23:26] <tag> Ugh
[23:26] <bernz> tonsofpcs, oh, i didn't know of a GUI lshw... thanks for the tip
[23:26] <Arcitens> tag: I have been able to open old .odt files from pre 3.0 on 3.0 openoffice
[23:26] <Arcitens> tag: did you try opening the same files with abiword?
[23:26] <morphias> yo, has anyone fixed ubuntu 9.04 support for Intels "Intel GM965 Express Chipset Family"... its depressing -> X-Server keeps crashing
[23:26] <gartral> where do I purt plugin .so files for mozilla based browsers so it can use them???
[23:26] <greg__> cankoy: http://pastebin.com/m3e29728b is output
[23:26] <cabrey> gartral, what are you trying to do?
[23:27] <tonsofpcs> bernz: yea, it's installed by default with the jaunty netbook remix i think
[23:27] <tonsofpcs> http://www.ezix.org is what the about window says
[23:27] <kbrosnan> gartral: ~/.mozilla/plugins should work
[23:27] <gartral> cabrey: try a costom flashplayer, cause neith ones provided in repos work worth a shit on my computer
[23:27] <tag> Arcitens: no
[23:27] <TeddyBear> fanculo
[23:27] <gartral> excuse my lanuage
[23:27] <rockyrock> Now I realized why I MUST GET A NEW LAPTOP
[23:28] <Treyh> I'm running 8.04 64bit server 8gigs of ram, when i start a single VM with only 1g of memory, over about 30 minutes the memory usage from 2gs to the full 8 gig's, is this normal?
[23:28] <cabrey> gartral, if you downloaded it from adobe, it isn't custom, it is the same exact thing. does audio work anywhere else?
[23:28] <gartral> kbrosnan: I don't have that dir, should I make on?
[23:28] <dbugger> Hey guys!
[23:28] <Arcitens> tag: Try opening your .odt files with another word processor such as abiword. You might have a problem with the Java in OOo
[23:28] <tonsofpcs> java in ooooooooo?
[23:28] <tag> I shouldn't
[23:28] <Mike_lifeguard> openoffice.org
[23:28] <tag> I would think
[23:28] <morphias> lol.
[23:28] <gartral> cabrey: it isn't from adobe, I modded the source of the open one, and it isn't sound at falt, both the free and non free play at one frame per 35 seconds
[23:28] <tag> I use java daily as well
[23:29] <bernz> dbugger, welcome, please ask your question, or answer others' ;-)
[23:29] <tonsofpcs> right, i know what ooooooo is, was questioning the java in it causing inability to open files
[23:29] <dbugger> thanks, bernz
[23:29] <dbugger> I need someone's help please. Im kinda desperate now. I'm developing a app in C# and I need to find an algorithm to prepare the layout of a graph, but I cant seem to find any reference anywhere. Can someone give me some pointeers, please?
[23:29] <morphias> okay someone post up - Intel GM965 Express Chipset Family crashes with compiz, x-window manager... any hotfixes recently?
[23:29] <cabrey> gartral, definitely sounds like flash :P, but even though flash is slow for me, it isnt THAT slow, hmm...
[23:29] <Arcitens> he didn't say it wasn't able to open files - he said it crashed.
[23:29] <rockyrock> can someone please tell me the size of this package with the dependencies: swi-prolog. Please tell me the download size and the name of the dependencies. I can't do that cuz I already installed it
[23:29] <bernz> dbugger, unfortunately, this is the wrong channel for such a question :-/
[23:30] <coral> konichiwa
[23:30] <gartral> cabrey: its so bad, firefox will crash after three frames
[23:30] <Jeruvy> !info swi-prolog | rockyrock
[23:30] <cabrey> gartral, hmm well i dont know then, sorry... anyways got to go
[23:30] <dbugger> Im sorry, but I dont even know what is the right channel to ask for algorithms :S
[23:30] <tag> hurm, I'm able to open it in abiword just fine
[23:30] <Guest69834> guys help.. i chowned /usr/ to myself, and now i cant access sudo anymore.. what to i have to do, and how can i activate root account ??
[23:30] <tag> unfortunately that's not quite good enough :-P
[23:31] <rockyrock> SHIT I can't download it, it's too big. My transfer rate is 1.5 kb/s
[23:31] <fccf> rockyrock: if you go to rt-click on the package in synaptic and click properties then tab dependencies
[23:31] <morphias> #$# - someone bump me if they can help with x-window manager and Intel GM965 Express Chipset Family, thanks
[23:31] <DarkRavin> if i install something in LiveCD does it install on my main ubuntu
[23:31] <bernz> Guest69834, i think there's a way to enable the root account (normally disabled by default), and then use that; see the ubuntu website and search for 'root account' or similar
[23:31] <KelebekTurkce758> hi
[23:31] <fccf> DarkRavin: no .. only until you reboot
[23:32] <Treyh> my setup for virtualization is, 8.04 64bit server 8 gigs of ram, running two vbox VM's (windows server 2003 32 bit) with 1g of memory each, the ubuntu server keeps running out of memory, what am I doing wrong?
[23:32] <rockyrock> fccf: yeah thnx. I realized that I installed the package without using Synaptic. I lost the packages that I downloaded. What can I do now?
[23:32] <DarkRavin> fccf so when i reboot it will be on my main ubuntu
[23:32] <onefriedrice> Guest21506: NOt sure, but you probably need sudo to "enable" the root account... so you may have to reboot into single-user mode to undo what you did.
[23:33] <gartral> kbrosnan: if the ./.mozilla/plugins dir doesn't exist, should I create it?
[23:33] <coral> hello, my friend has just installed ubuntu 9.04 on his uncles computer and for some reason the sound is not working on ubuntu and windows(dual boot). can anybody help me out?
[23:33] <kbrosnan> gartral: sure
[23:33] <fccf> DarkRavin: no, the live disk installs to ram .. you cannot use the live disk to install to your installed system .. unless you chroot
[23:33] <fccf> !chroot
[23:34] <DarkRavin> fccf> ok how do i do that
[23:34] <lineman60> theyh what VM software? I just installed Centos to bare mettel VMware then the VM's

[23:46] <flpwch> Kasuko: that would be a problem with the connection or the cable.
[23:46] <Artemis3> Vinceman, you added a third party repository and need a key, without the key that message appears
[23:46] <billybigrigger> coral::: well it could be lots of things, try updating the bios
[23:47] <billybigrigger> coral::: is it onboard audio?
[23:47] <Kasuko> flpwch: It doesnt flicker at 1360x768
[23:47] <flpwch> Kasuko: if you can vnc into the screen, then it isn't a problem with x or anything ubuntu-wise. check your cables, try a different one
[23:47] <flpwch> oh
[23:47] <Vinceman> Artemis3, where do I get this key?
[23:47] <billybigrigger> coral::: if you have an added sound card and onboard audio, make sure your speakers are plugged into the right output jack
[23:47] <flpwch> that changes the game.
[23:48] <Artemis3> Vinceman, it depends on the repository you added, usually in the page instructing to add the repo is also information to add the gpg-key
[23:48] <Kasuko> flpwch: I dont lik the sound of that
[23:48] <flpwch> but you can vnc into the 1920x1080 screen?
[23:48] <flpwch> and view it at that resolution?
[23:48] <Kasuko> flpwch: yes
[23:48] <flpwch> that still sounds like a cord or connection problem
[23:48] <devil_> hi every one
[23:48] <Vinceman> once you have a key the software is authenticated? you're sure it's from that repo?
[23:48] <Kasuko> well , I appear to, my laptop cant handle 1080p but I can pan
[23:48] <flpwch> yeah, i assumed as much
[23:48] <Artemis3> Vinceman, one key for each repo :)
[23:48] <flpwch> i'd say try a different hdmi cord just to be sure.
[23:49] <devil_> can anyone tell me from where i can get lamp server for ubuntu??
[23:49] <flpwch> and make sure its nice and tight connection
[23:49] <pepperjack> !server | devil_
[23:49] <flpwch> devil_: lamp server, like apache+mysql+php?
[23:49] <locomocogirl990> hi
[23:49] <devil_> thanx guys
[23:50] <foolz> ugh
[23:50] <devil_> yes flpwch
[23:50] <foolz> is PHP full 100% of the time, every day, or something?
[23:50] <flpwch> foolz: pretty much
[23:50] <foolz> every time I try to join that channel I am shunted to "overflow"
[23:51] <flpwch> learn a more obscure language. i'm sure lisp is pretty quiet foolz
[23:51] <darko91|dodo> hi everybidy // salut tout le monde
[23:51] <darko91|dodo> everybody*
[23:51] <devil_> ubottu:cant we install it my existing ubuntu??
[23:51] <flpwch> devil_: its a separate installation
[23:51] <foolz> flpwch,hehe
[23:51] <flpwch> so no, its an OS image
[23:51] <gartral> Paddy_EIRE: firefox 3.0.10 with Ubuntu 9.04.. so far, Iv'e tryed repo Gnash, flashplayer free, flashplayer nonfree.. and costom rolls of both free flash alternatives... *all* have the same effect
[23:52] <flpwch> foolz: more like ()((learn)lisp)()()
[23:52] <devil_> flpwch ok
[23:52] <foolz> ouch.
[23:52] <darko91> flpwch excuse me, but i have a question
[23:52] <flpwch> darko91: hi
[23:52] <billybigrigger> gartral::: 32bit or 64bit?
[23:52] <darko91> flpwch hi :)
[23:52] <flpwch> so whats the question?
[23:52] <Flannel> foolz: You may need to be identified to join
[23:52] <Paddy_EIRE> gartral: yeah I got that earlier.. does this happen to all flash content.. like youtube videos?
[23:52] <lineman60> anyone know of a good guide to create a pppoe Server?
[23:52] <darko91> flpwch i'm french and i'm looking for a french chan
[23:52] <gartral> billybigrigger: 32
[23:52] <Paddy_EIRE> gartral: or is there something particular that you are troubled with
[23:52] <foolz> Flannel, how do I do that?  I'm not exactly an IRC expert
[23:52] <darko91> can you help me ?
[23:52] <billybigrigger> gartral::: oooh
[23:52] <flpwch> probably #ubuntu-fr
[23:52] <Flannel> foolz: /msg nickserv help register
[23:53] <darko91> thanks flp
[23:53] <darko91> flpwch
[23:53] <darko91> :/
[23:53] <flpwch> yep, thats the one.
[23:53] <gartral> Paddy_EIRE: all flash, universally accross all browsers
[23:53] <Paddy_EIRE> !register | foolz
[23:53] <flpwch> my pleasure.
[23:53] <gartral> billybigrigger: known fix?
[23:53] <billybigrigger> gartral::: not for 32bit
[23:54] <morphias> okay, any fixes for ubuntu 9.04 for Intel GM965 Express Chipset Family causes x-server to lock up?
[23:54] <billybigrigger> gartral::: im sorry i don't even know your problem, i just saw gnash, flashplayer free & nonfree and assumed you had flash problems...
[23:54] <gartral> billybigrigger: why  would cononical release code that they KNEW doesn't work!?!?
[23:54] <billybigrigger> gartral::: i know on my 64bit install i use this plugin...http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-10.0.22.87.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz
[23:54] <billybigrigger> gartral::: maybe scour that site for a new or newer 32bit plugin
[23:54] <Kasuko> flpwch: About HDMI cable, could it be that that cable isn't v1.3
[23:54] <gartral> billybigrigger: already did.. no help
[23:54] <flpwch> Kasuko: it could be. im not sure.
[23:55] <flpwch> could just be a loose connection.
[23:55] <billybigrigger> gartral::: canonical doesn't have ANY control over proprietary adobe plugins and code and such
[23:55] <rio> how to disable the fade effect when changing wallpapers?
[23:55] <gartral> billybigrigger: no... but other Linux distros lack THIS problem.. it seem Ubuntu 9.04 specific
[23:55] <flpwch> gartral: flash is adobe and adobe only. it is nonfree and broken.  it isn't canonicals or a developers job to make everything work with adobe.
[23:55] <billybigrigger> gartral::: im not sure what your talking about...i don't use any other distributions
[23:55] <cabrey> gartral, no, more like system by system problem, flash works perfectly for me
[23:56] <togetic> i can't login to a WM or DE, i am just sent back to the login manager
[23:56] <cabrey> gartral, have you reported a bug for gnash/swfdec?
[23:56] <Paddy_EIRE> here too gartral works perfectly here
[23:56] <flpwch> and my flash works great, if a little slow, in any case
[23:56] <billybigrigger> exactly, my 64bit flash works great...my buddies laptop using the same plugin doesn't work for him
[23:56] <flpwch> if its sound, its probably some weird problem involving flash talking to alsa.
[23:57] <gartral> ok... let me be more broad... why would anyone release code, that they knew had problems? oh wait.. look at microsoft...
[23:57] <flpwch> one could test different audio outputs (discrete v onboard) and different sound entirely (alsa v oss)
[23:57] <billybigrigger> gartral::: good question
[23:57] <rjune> gartral, playing the odds that it would work for most cases
[23:58] <flpwch> gartral: because working for most is better than no one having it.
[23:58] <cabrey> gartral, this is different. gnash/swfdec are still very much not ready and under heavy development
[23:58] <togetic> also after guessing it had something to do with permissions, i changed the permissions of my /home/togetic folder recursively and i'm told when it is attempting to login that it will use the root folder, but that doesn't even happen
[23:58] <gartral> cabrey: you miss the scope.. *ALL* flash plugins, free and non free, exhibit the exact same problem... compiled locally, and by "trusted" sources
[23:59] <cabrey> gartral, and that means it is not the flash plugins that are the problem
[23:59] <cabrey> gartral, something else is
[23:59] <syslq78> Ubuntu freezed (I had to manually reboot) twice while aptituding some package (while downloading or unpacking) any ideas?
[23:59] <flpwch> syslq78: same package?
[23:59] <flpwch> did it require any special action like accepting a certain license (like java)
[23:59] <syslq78> flpwch, no, one was mplayer and second was netbeans
