| XeNiX | they said try -f :s | 00:04 |
| Flannel | N-5893496: please ask elsewhere, thanks. A java channel might be the most appropriate | 00:04 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, gig is 1000 mb's and gib is 1024 mbs | 00:04 |
| sebsebseb | logic: or did you mean you just made an account on Ubuntu for use with putty? | 00:04 |

| Flannel | Dimitree: alright, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure --config phpbb3 | 00:07 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, im on linux now! | 00:07 |

| renagadex | my windows dl's at about 64 KB/sec | 00:07 |
| usser | XeNiX, no before that, when we just started you said you'll try to reinstall kde, which command did you use? | 00:08 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, download ubuntu iso less than 700 seconds :O | 00:08 |
| renagadex | oh yeah | 00:08 |
| XeNiX | apt-get install kde3 | 00:08 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, good gosh your WINDOWS downloads faster than both of mine | 00:08 |
| XeNiX | not working :s | 00:08 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: oh you want KDE3 in 9.04? | 00:08 |
| Flannel | XeNiX: What version of Ubuntu are you using? | 00:08 |
| renagadex | lol | 00:08 |
| sebsebseb | !lol | 00:08 |
| ubottu | Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. | 00:08 |
| Dimitree | Flannel: this command didn't work no such option ? | 00:08 |
| XeNiX | 8.10 | 00:09 |

| sebsebseb | XeNiX: there is a way to have KDE3 in 9.04 | 00:09 |
| usser | XeNiX, yea shouldnt have done apt-get install kde3 | 00:09 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, my downloads | 00:09 |
| sebsebseb | !kde3 | XeNiX | 00:09 |
| ubottu | XeNiX: Kubuntu 8.04 ships with KDE3 and full support. Jaunty does not include KDE3 but a remix install CD can be obtained at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Kde3/Jaunty . This is not officially supported. Support, instructions and ways to contribute can be found on the wiki page | 00:09 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, network adapter: RTL8201CL | 00:10 |
| z3r0 | hello all | 00:10 |
| usser | XeNiX, apt-get install -f works? | 00:10 |
| Dimitree | Flannel: debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable | 00:10 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: what the bot said, and there's also a way to add the repo, for KDE3 packages in 9.04 | 00:10 |
| usser | XeNiX, we'll remove kde3 later, but first we need to fix the mess. | 00:10 |
| XeNiX | usser: no i have some broken packages dont work :s | 00:10 |
| Dimitree | Jesus Christ this is hell lol | 00:10 |
| XeNiX | sebsebseb: i have ubuntu 8.10 | 00:10 |
| Flannel | Dimitree: Sorry, close the GUI package manager you have open, then try again | 00:10 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, something i don't get: how come i have one yet this comp is from ~2005? i thought the 82xx's weren't out yet... | 00:10 |
| usser | XeNiX, sudo apt-get remove --purge kde3 | 00:10 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: I know and as I said you can't just have KDE3 there | 00:10 |
| Dimitree | Flannel: there is no gui opened and no package manager also only Xchat | 00:10 |
| renagadex | racecar56: haha, I dont know anything about network adapters | 00:10 |
| XeNiX | couldnt find package kde3 | 00:11 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: probably worth upgrading to 9.04, for KDE3, and you could do KDE 4.2 whilst your at it as well if you want | 00:11 |
| XeNiX | usser: i can upgrade ubuntu 8.10 to 9 ? without losing files ? | 00:11 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: or downgrading to Ubuntu 8.04 that has a fully suppourted KDE3 | 00:11 |
| stiev3 | I have 1 ext3 partition for / which includes /home that has just run out of space. I have 1 LVM partition that has plenty of space. Which is an easier task?... expanding root ext3 filesystem to take some of the LVM away (if that's even possible???), or moving /home to the LVM? | 00:11 |
| nick125 | /wi14 | 00:11 |
| nick125 | err | 00:11 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, :\ | 00:11 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, k | 00:11 |
| XeNiX | usser: i can upgrade right ? ! | 00:11 |
| Dimitree | Flannel: i'm sorry it seams everything is broken i will reinstall and try to install LAMP first and then phpbb3 :/ o well wish me luck | 00:12 |
| renagadex | racecar56; any way, I need video card drivers | 00:12 |
| Dimitree | yet another ubuntu reinstall lol | 00:12 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, :| | 00:12 |
| Flannel | Dimitree: When you reinstall, *dont* reinstall phpbb3 | 00:12 |
| rainwalker | why does ubuntu (64-bit) only see 3.7 gigs of ram whereas my swap is 6.1 gigs? | 00:12 |
| Dimitree | Flannel: ok | 00:12 |
| Flannel | Dimitree: That's whats causing this problem, the package is wonky for some reason. | 00:12 |
| renagadex | racecar56: Because games screw up apperance and make things green when I quit | 00:12 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, nuts | 00:12 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, your card? | 00:12 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, ati rage? jk | 00:12 |
| renagadex | racecar56: And I cant play tremoulus | 00:13 |
| Flannel | Dimitree: File a bug about it, maybe ask the people in #ubuntu-motu about it, and your best course of action is probably to just grab it from upstream | 00:13 |
| usser | XeNiX, yes sure | 00:13 |
| renagadex | racecar56: It's ATI | 00:13 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, k... | 00:13 |
| Dimitree | Flannel: ok thank you for the help so far :) | 00:13 |
| kendrick_ | need help with a usb phone, pulse sees it correctly but when I try to record with gnome-sound-recorder i only hear clicking | 00:13 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, ati rage is old | 00:13 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, it was around in 1999 | 00:13 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, O.o | 00:13 |
| renagadex | racecar56: AMD Phenom(tm) 9750 Quad-Core Processor | 00:13 |

| adam_ | can i dist-downgrade? | 00:13 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, i have a ati radeon 9200SE in my comp right now.... | 00:13 |
| renagadex | h/o | 00:13 |
| sebsebseb | !downgrade | adam_ | 00:14 |
| ubottu | adam_: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 00:14 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, its from 2003 (the vid card) | 00:14 |
| sebsebseb | adam_: Why would you like to downgrade? Which version are you currently on? | 00:14 |
| exco | some grub guru around who has 5 minutes for me? | 00:14 |
| XeNiX | usser : from cd is better coz apt-get not working , always showing the error of the package kde3 but ubunut .. is intalled | 00:14 |
| MidnightDevil | heya :) | 00:14 |
| renagadex | racecar56: ha, Mobilitiy Radeon HD 3600 Series | 00:14 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, k.. | 00:14 |

| wolter | kmplot won't show functions dialog again, help! | 00:14 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, my crumball laptop has a nvidia geforce go 7600 | 00:15 |

| racecar56 | renagadex, my crumball laptop is -*TERRIBLE*_ | 00:15 |
| renagadex | racecar56, Possibly...? | 00:15 |
| sebsebseb | adam_: ok clean install and put 8.04 on, in fact the LTS's are recommended for servers | 00:15 |
| renagadex | racecar56, Closed source drivers | 00:15 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, a pentium 3 could beat it on moving 30 GB files | 00:15 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, :P | 00:15 |
| `brandon` | how do i unzip a file? | 00:15 |
| MidnightDevil | any other msn client that supports webcam besides amsn ? | 00:15 |
| usser | XeNiX, you cant upgrade from cd | 00:15 |
| adam_ | sebsebseb: ya i know, i thought 9 was a LTS version, i mis-read so thast why i'm gonna go back to 8 | 00:15 |
| JECHO | brandon right click it | 00:15 |

| XeNiX | usser so :s ? | 00:16 |
| adam_ | i just wanted to know if i could use apt, i guess not | 00:16 |

| sebsebseb | MidnightDevil: Kmess maybe, and there's the cloused source Mercury Messenger made by one guy, which is a Java program also, which you can install from outside the repos | 00:16 |
| usser | XeNiX, can you purge kde3. sudo apt-get remove --purge kde3 | 00:16 |
| racecar56 | `brandon` you answered your question | 00:16 |
| renagadex | racecar56: hahaha (cant say lol....SEBSEBSEB) | 00:16 |
| `brandon` | well it's in a terminal | 00:16 |
| racecar56 | `brandon` if you use the command line, then use unzip | 00:16 |
| `brandon` | on a Shell. | 00:16 |
| MidnightDevil | ok, cheers :) another little thing | 00:16 |
| racecar56 | `brandon` unzip 'file' | 00:16 |
| sebsebseb | adam_: yep good idea to only do the LTS's for servers | 00:16 |
| XeNiX | usser: couldn't find a package kde3 !s | 00:16 |
| sebsebseb | renagadex: well you can, but you might annoy people a bit by doing so in here | 00:16 |

| sebsebseb | adam_: np | 00:17 |
| sebsebseb | stealth-: yes if it uses your open port, but I don't know that much about SSH | 00:17 |
| racecar56 | stealth-, i dont have to port forward... | 00:17 |
| usser | XeNiX, hm i dont know. can you save all the error messages to a file and somehow pastebin it? its really hard to debug the issue like that | 00:17 |
| racecar56 | stealth-, i just install ssh and boom | 00:17 |
| stealth- | racecar56: boom? | 00:18 |
| racecar56 | stealth-, i just have to know the ip | 00:18 |
| renagadex | racecar56: Broke the record! 1.7 MG/sec | 00:18 |

| renagadex | racecar56: What do I do with a .run file? | 00:19 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, chmod +x file && ./file | 00:19 |
| unop | renagadex, execute it | 00:19 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, replace 'file' with the .run fikle | 00:19 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, *file | 00:19 |
| renagadex | what about && ./file? | 00:20 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, && means do this too if the previous command completes | 00:20 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, btw || is the total opposite of that | 00:20 |
| XeNiX | usser: http://pastebin.ca/1458363 | 00:20 |
| unop | && means do this too if the previous command returns TRUE | 00:21 |
| XeNiX | usser: lol even kwrite is lost :s | 00:21 |

| imatech | anyone here use xorp? i'm getting an error that Failed to connect to the router manager | 00:22 |
| usser | XeNiX, it seems your repos are out of date | 00:22 |
| sebsebseb | usser: he is on 8.10 | 00:23 |
| sebsebseb | usser: and KDE3 on 8.10 will be a bit hum, since not in the repo and everything | 00:23 |
| usser | sebsebseb, problem is he doesnt want kde3 | 00:23 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, e.g. you had a file called 'shutdown.run', you do 'chmod +x shutdown.run && ./shutdown.run' (no quotes) and suppose it would shut down the system | 00:23 |
| XeNiX | usse:r http://pastebin.ca/1458367 | 00:23 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: I thought you wanted KDE3?? | 00:23 |
| XeNiX | usser: http://pastebin.ca/1458367 | 00:23 |
| XeNiX | sebsebseb: i want only to fix i dont care with kde | 00:24 |
| XeNiX | i want only a kde | 00:24 |
| usser | XeNiX, sudo apt-get remove konqueror-nsplugins-kde3 konqueror-kde3 | 00:24 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: well running an upgrade to jaunty, will probably remove go over whatever, any KDE3 stuff you got, with KDE4 stuff | 00:24 |
| erUSUL | !purekde | XeNiX | 00:24 |
| ubottu | XeNiX: If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » | 00:24 |
| renagadex | racecar56: says it cant find the file | 00:24 |
| exco | grub anyone? | 00:25 |
| renagadex | racecar56: sudo chmod +x ~/desktop/ ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64.run | 00:25 |
| XeNiX | usser : fine after ? | 00:25 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, you are going to get yourself in a HEAP of trouble | 00:25 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, _DO NOT_ use ati's drivers | 00:25 |
| usser | XeNiX, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 00:25 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, use jockey-gtk | 00:25 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, a.k.a. hardware drivers | 00:26 |
| usser | XeNiX, if that works, you can proceed with the upgrade to jaunty | 00:26 |
| XeNiX | usser: what is the upgrade to jaunty ? | 00:26 |
| usser | XeNiX, upgrade to 9.04 | 00:27 |
| usser | XeNiX, with kde4 | 00:27 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: and optional KDE3 if you install yourself :) | 00:27 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: add the repo yeah | 00:27 |
| XeNiX | fine :) | 00:27 |
| XeNiX | usser, sebsebseb: any page for that upgrade to jaunty ? | 00:27 |
| enzo | strange, when i connect to my ubuntu 9.04, i get a message from the usage of cpu, ram, quite cool, but i've just rebooted the server, and i don't get any more those information, you know why ? | 00:28 |
| renagadex | racecar56: ? ??? | 00:28 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, dont use ati's drivers | 00:28 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, use hardware manager | 00:28 |
| renagadex | racecar56; what do I get then? | 00:28 |
| usser | XeNiX, just replace every intrepid occurence in your /etc/apt/sources.list to jaunty do sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 00:28 |
| XeNiX | ah ok ubuntu version is called with names jaunty edgy , Feisty | 00:28 |
| XeNiX | lol now i know ;à | 00:28 |
| renagadex | racecar56: I just want it to work | 00:28 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, hardware drivesr | 00:29 |
| XeNiX | since 3 years with it i didnt saw this | 00:29 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, system > admin > hardware drivers | 00:29 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: that's one way or run | 00:29 |
| Dr_Willis | XeNiX: those are just funny codenames. :) they still have vversion #'s based on the date of release.. | 00:29 |
| Dr_Perillux | has anyone here ever had to install an i7 processor? I need some help please | 00:29 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: update manager -d in the terminal and it should say 9.04 is an update | 00:29 |
| XeNiX | update manager in terminal ? ! | 00:30 |
| sjlkg | is there a way to get the current spindown timeout value of a hdd? i know you can set it with hdparm -S but how to get it? | 00:30 |
| Hajuu | Impossible.. | 00:30 |
| renagadex | racecar56: it says no propriatary drivers are in use on this system | 00:30 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: update manager -d | 00:31 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, then that means you are good with the open ones | 00:31 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: that might not work | 00:31 |
| racecar56 | renagadex, if you *REALLY* want them, then go ahead and use the official drivers | 00:31 |
| XeNiX | usser : now i dont have kde working i do that update and it will be fixed ? | 00:32 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: system > administaration > upgrade manager | 00:32 |

| hilikus | hey guys im using unetbootin to install ubuntu and i'm trying to create the partitions on free unpartitioned space on my drive but the program is complaining that i can't partition that disk because it is the same disk where unetbootin is loaded | 00:32 |
| hilikus | whats the point then if you cant partition the one disk you have? | 00:33 |
| XeNiX | sebsebseb: i saw only synaptic :s | 00:33 |
| === Hiei_Jagan is now known as Bad_Yusuke | ||
| racecar56 | gtg | 00:33 |
| Dr_Willis | hilikus: i normally use unetbootin to make a bootable flash drive.. i then boot and do a normal install to the real hard drive.. i dont use unetbootin to install to a hard drive | 00:33 |

| gabriel_ | Hi everyone | 00:34 |
| Waldir | hey everyone... I need some advice here: I downloaded some favicon.ico files and even though the image viewer can open them, if I use it to save them as png the system detects them and displays the thumbnail, but they must somehow be corrupted cause firefox won't open load them... what might be the problem here? | 00:34 |
| XeNiX | sebsebseb: is the way usser told me gonna work ? | 00:34 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: maybe you should just clean install and do optional Ext4 file system as well :) then your 9.04 will be nice and clean and nice and fast | 00:34 |
| XeNiX | sebsebseb: ,) i dont want to lose some files :s | 00:35 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: you can back up, and what usser said should work | 00:35 |
| gabriel_ | I have a USB pendrive that I want to format with gparted to make a usb startup disk, on which format do I have to format the pendrive? | 00:35 |
| Waldir | *firefox won't load them in a <img> tag (directly specifying the image in the url bar works) | 00:35 |
| XeNiX | sebsebseb, usser: thanks Guys | 00:35 |
| Waldir | anyone? :( | 00:36 |
| gabriel_ | I have a USB pendrive that I want to format with gparted to make a usb startup disk, on which format do I have to format the pendrive? | 00:36 |
| aly | Hi people, I had to reinstall ubuntu (I did it with unetbootin), everything went fine, except that it didn't consider my old home partition, and it doesnt want to mount it, even as an "external" partition, so i'd like to be able to mount it, and "make it be" my home partition again ,is it possible? | 00:36 |
| thor | I use ext3 for my | 00:37 |
| sebsebseb | aly: I guess you forgot or whatever, to tell it to use that partition as the /home mount point | 00:37 |
| aly | (Sorry for my bad english) | 00:37 |
| sebsebseb | !home | aly | 00:37 |
| ubottu | aly: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 00:37 |
| thor | I use ext3 for my ubuntu pendrive | 00:37 |
| aly | sebsebseb, It's exactly that, how can i tell him | 00:37 |
| alexandre | Olá | 00:37 |
| sebsebseb | XeNiX: np | 00:38 |
| gabriel_ | Ok, I have Ubuntu 9.04 installed | 00:38 |
| gabriel_ | If I format in ext3 i can still install ubuntu with ext4, right? sorry for the question, im new to this | 00:38 |
| Dr_Willis | hilikus: you are using unetbootin to basicailly do a live cd type setup on a hard drive then it seems.. you cant resize a partition thats mounted. So you are stuck unless you use some other way to boot/resize the hard drive then install | 00:39 |
| hilikus | really??? | 00:40 |
| hilikus | i didint expect that | 00:40 |
| mneptok | gabriel_: yes | 00:40 |
| gabriel_ | thanks mneptok | 00:40 |
| mneptok | gabriel_: you a Windows user? | 00:40 |
| Dr_Willis | hilikus: unetbootin is a special tool used to make bootable flash drives.. it can also install to normal hard drives. but its not commonly used that way. | 00:40 |
| gabriel_ | I use both Ubuntu 9.04 and windows xp | 00:40 |
| mneptok | gabriel_: think of it as "if i install Windows using NTFS, will it still read FAT32?" | 00:41 |
| Dr_Willis | gabriel_: when installing - you can format to ext4 | 00:41 |
| iliketofrolic666 | how do i find out if i have 64 bit or 32 bit? | 00:41 |
| mneptok | gabriel_: and certainly, yes | 00:41 |

| pw-toxic | hi, i have started ubuntu 9.04 64bit with a live CD and copied my old ubuntu 9.04 partition to my new SSD from INTEL.. but now i cant boot from this intel drive.. how can i reconfigure grub? | 00:47 |
| pw-toxic | my pc tells me that there is no OS on this drive.. | 00:48 |
| renagadex | tremulous will not start, I have link to pastebin | 00:48 |
| |Ryan | Can someone help me with themes on Ubuntu 9.04? | 00:48 |
| Dr_Willis | pw-toxic: you can install grub from a live ccd to the hd if you know how... | 00:48 |
| renagadex | racecar56: Tremulous still wont start | 00:48 |
| sebsebseb | !themes > |Ryan | 00:48 |
| ubottu | |Ryan, please see my private message | 00:48 |
| sebsebseb | |Ryan: what's your actsual issue though? | 00:48 |
| pw-toxic | Dr_Willis: lol after minutes my grub-install command responded with a "Installing Grub to /dev/sdd as (hd3)... i think i just wait some more ;) | 00:49 |
| pw-toxic | Dr_Willis: do you know a link where i can read more about the (hdx) and sdx fdx things? i dont know what they mean | 00:50 |
| renagadex | sebsebseb: Tremulous wont start | 00:50 |
| Dr_Willis | pw-toxic: grub homepage/. grub names drives differently then linux does. | 00:50 |
| Dr_Willis | pw-toxic: reading up on the grub-legacy docs. :) a good thing to learn | 00:50 |
| jimmyjh | pw-toxic: boot back into the live-cd and sudo update-grup | 00:50 |
| Dr_Willis | pw-toxic: grub can do some amazing things. | 00:50 |
| Dethroned | how do I find out if Jaunty is 32 or 64 bit? | 00:50 |
| |Ryan | Yeah, well, I go to install a theme and it pops up with an error message saying, "Can't move directory over directory" | 00:50 |
| sebsebseb | renagadex: what's that? | 00:50 |
| renagadex | sebsebseb: oh, sorry, its a game | 00:51 |
| Dr_Willis | |Ryan: its allready insfalled then . and its not letting you install it a 2nd time. | 00:51 |
| |Ryan | But, it's not on my list? | 00:51 |
| renagadex | sebsebseb: says cant load OpenGL | 00:51 |
| Dr_Willis | |Ryan: not all themes are full themes.. some packages are just parts.. check the customuze button/settings/dialogs | 00:51 |
| jimmyjh | pw-toxic: " boot back into the live-cd and sudo update-grub " | 00:51 |
| Dr_Willis | |Ryan: the term theme is a bit of a misnomer in many cases | 00:51 |
| pw-toxic | jimmyjh: it works now.. i was just wondering why the grub install command didnt respond for about 5 minutes | 00:52 |
| Dethroned | how do I find out if Jaunty is 32 or 64 bit? | 00:52 |
| bill-e1 | since your talking about grub, I have Moblin on an SDHC in my card reader slot. would j;date-grub find it and add it to the menu? | 00:52 |
| |unjustice| | Dethroned: it says in the name of the downloadable file | 00:52 |
| mikepark | Dethroned: is it already installed? | 00:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Dethroned: uname -a, and look at the x8x_64 bit | 00:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Dethroned: or in the iso file name :) | 00:52 |
| |Ryan | Thanks Dr_Willis, I got all my theme stuff. | 00:53 |

| sam\ | hello all :D | 00:55 |
| ubuntu | how can open rar format in ubuntu | 00:56 |
| ARMENIAN | when i try connecting to my headset with carwhisperer i get Can't connect SCO audio channel!: Connection timed out | 00:56 |
| sam\ | im new to linux and was thinking about putting linux on my desktop | 00:56 |
| Dr_Willis | !rar | 00:56 |
| ubottu | rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 00:56 |
| ARMENIAN | ubuntu: sudo apt-get install rar | 00:56 |
| jimmyjh | ubuntu: sudo apt-get install rar | 00:56 |
| fivetwentysix | sam\: Good idea | 00:56 |
| sam\ | i have seen alot of videos showing people playing games on ubuntu ? | 00:56 |
| CybeRebel | hey Dr Willis i got winff going to try it now, thanks again :) | 00:56 |
| pw-toxic | jimmyjh: is there an editor for the grub boot options? i mean a graphical one.. something like startupmanager | 00:56 |
| sebsebseb | sam\: depends on the game, but can get a lot of stuff working, also Linux has good native games | 00:57 |
| Dr_Willis | pw-toxic: it pays to learn how to edit menu.lst by hand | 00:57 |
| fivetwentysix | sam\: if you're switching to ubuntu to play games, stick to windows | 00:57 |
| sam\ | could i create the partition with partition magic then install that way? | 00:57 |
| Dr_Willis | sam\: or go get a Wii | 00:57 |
| sam\ | :D | 00:57 |
| pw-toxic | Dr_Willis: ok.. maybe you also know a good tutorial for me? :D | 00:57 |
| sebsebseb | sam\: could do I suppouse, but it would be better to use gparted, the Linux partition program | 00:57 |
| jimmyjh | pw-toxic: yes,,, sudo apt-get install startupmanager | 00:57 |
| Hilikus | Dr_Willis ok, so if i want to do it with a usb drive, will it format it? | 00:57 |
| sam\ | think i will just use ubuntu on my laptop.. | 00:57 |
| pw-toxic | jimmyjh: i cant add new entries with this program | 00:57 |
| sam\ | games is what i use the desktop pc for but alot of people are saying you can game? | 00:58 |
| ubuntu | can i play advanced games in ubuntu | 00:58 |
| Dr_Willis | pw-toxic: read the grub docs/manuals thats how i learned it.. the ubuntu menu.lst is also special in that it has special 'settings' with ONE # at the start of the line.. and other comments with 2 ## at the start of the lines watch out for those. | 00:58 |
| pw-toxic | jimmyjh: i have reinstalled grub of the cloned HDD:. now when i boot from my new SSD .. the old OS is booted | 00:58 |
| fivetwentysix | sam\: you can but not as well | 00:58 |
| sam\ | multiplayer to ? | 00:58 |
| sebsebseb | sam\ and Ubuntu if you want to play Windows games, it's best to keep Windows around really, but you can get a lot of them working | 00:58 |
| sam\ | with games with punkbuster? | 00:58 |
| fivetwentysix | sam\: Linux isn't Windows | 00:58 |
| sam\ | ie, cod4 | 00:58 |
| Dr_Willis | !appdb | 00:58 |
| ubottu | The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help | 00:58 |
| sebsebseb | fivetwentysix: well that depends on the game, if it works as well, or worse, or sometimes better than Windows itself | 00:58 |
| sam\ | i know that :) its a damm good os tho | 00:59 |
| Hilikus | will unetbootin format a usb drive if i use it as installer? | 00:59 |
| jimmyjh | pw-toxic: no, you will have to edit the grub file for that try gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst | 00:59 |
| pw-toxic | jimmyjh: i've already opened it ;) now i have to figure out what hdx my SSD is ;) | 00:59 |
| jimmyjh | pw-toxic: beware you can mess up grub if your not careful,, usually sudo grub-update will work | 01:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Hilikus: unetbootin nomally makes a bootable live cd setup on a usb drive using the fat16 or fat32 filesysteem. you can then install from that to other drives.. | 01:00 |
| ubuntu | how can i run c programming in ubuntu | 01:00 |
| pw-toxic | jimmyjh: what do you mean with "mess up" | 01:00 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu: if you mean 'compile' c source code. install the compiler/developer tools | 01:01 |
| sebsebseb | sam\: you can game | 01:01 |
| pw-toxic | ah cool i can use the ubuntu UUIDs from my HDD | 01:01 |
| jimmyjh | pw-toxic: sudo grub-update rather ,,, i had a long day | 01:01 |
| pw-toxic | this is very easy | 01:01 |
| sam\ | yes, sebsebseb so ppl tell me :/ | 01:01 |
| sebsebseb | sam\: just Windows games some will just work, others will need configuring | 01:01 |
| sam\ | but all can work? | 01:01 |
| sebsebseb | sam\: Linux has good native games to, but yes Linux distros indeed are not Windows as someone pointed out | 01:01 |
| sam\ | okay also would it be worth installing 64bit?? | 01:02 |
| sebsebseb | sam\: as a result you should dual boot with Windows for Windows gaming | 01:02 |
| Hilikus | Dr_Willis but will it format it? cause i want to use my mp3 player, but i dont want to lose what i have there | 01:02 |
| jimmyjh | pw-toxic: well be careful is all editing the list | 01:02 |
| sam\ | i only use desktop for games anyways | 01:02 |
| sebsebseb | sam\: since Windows virtual machines won't quite cut it yet for gaming | 01:02 |
| sam\ | laptop is for general stuff | 01:02 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntu: install the 'build-essential' package for the basic C developer system. | 01:02 |
| sebsebseb | sam\: well then you want it on the lap top really | 01:02 |
| Mike_lifeguard | If I need to have both python 2.5 and 2.6 installed, how can I accomplish that? | 01:03 |
| sam\ | i cant fault it on my laptop :D | 01:03 |
| sebsebseb | sam\: and you can dual boot the desktop, and experiment with getting stuff working in Wine and such | 01:03 |
| sebsebseb | sam\: can't put on lap top why? | 01:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Mike_lifeguard: i installed the python 2.5 stuff the other day alongside 2.6 to get some gdesklets things going. i just cloicked the 2.5 packages in synaptic and insgtgalled them | 01:03 |
| sam\ | games would be too laggy | 01:03 |
| sam\ | gpu is not soo good | 01:03 |
| === Paraselene__ is now known as Paraselene_ | ||
| sam\ | i have only been using linux few weeks but already im finding it great :D | 01:04 |
| Mike_lifeguard | Dr_Willis: ok, so then how do you specify which python to use from shell? | 01:04 |
| jimmyjh | sam\: hopefully more games will be made for linux as it gets more and more popular | 01:04 |
| sebsebseb | sam\: using it how? | 01:04 |
| CSSnub | Dr_Willis - I've installed ssh, I'm using a non-standard port, and I've disabled anonymous logins. The firewall is on and only allows the one port through, and I'm about to punch a hole in the router. Anything else I should do before the throngs of deviants haxor me? | 01:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Mike_lifeguard: python2.6 :) vs pyton2.5 commands | 01:05 |

| Dr_Willis | CSSnub: check out the logwatch command also. :) it can show/summarize service access over a period of time. | 01:06 |
| unop | pw-toxic, lshw | 01:06 |
| sebsebseb | sam\: no I meant how did you install it? | 01:06 |

| sebsebseb | sam\: how much RAM do you have? and are you sure your computer is really 64bit? | 01:06 |
| Dr_Willis | sam\: unzip foo.zip is hard? :) | 01:06 |
| sam\ | 2gig | 01:07 |
| ARMENIAN | i keep getting Can't connect SCO audio channel!: Connection timed out | 01:07 |
| pw-toxic | unop: uff.. how can i put the output of this command into a file? the output is too long ;) | 01:07 |
| jimmyjh | sam\ help with that sudo apt-get install p7zip rar | 01:07 |
| sam\ | can i extract x amount | 01:08 |
| sam\ | movies rar files? | 01:08 |
| unop | pw-toxic, you can page the output like this. lshw | less or pipe to a file with lshw > filename # the former is better off course | 01:08 |
| sam\ | i have tried to extract the first zip but it says the files are missing | 01:08 |
| CSSnub | sam\ Yeah the program you want is called 7 Zip | 01:08 |
| sam\ | i need to be able to add the whole lot? | 01:08 |
| rasturm | i install opensuse...but i'm curiuos if it's possible to install ubuntu too? appear some conflict between two bootloader? | 01:08 |
| pw-toxic | unop: thanks | 01:09 |
| sam\ | torrent movies come in 15rar u open the first one on windows | 01:09 |
| Dr_Willis | rasturm: dont share the same /home directorues.. and watch out for fighting GRUB setups and it canbe done | 01:09 |
| Dr_Willis | rasturm: or just use virtualbox to toy with the other disrtos | 01:09 |
| Dr_Willis | sam\: and its the same way on linux// You just unrar the first file | 01:09 |
| Dr_Willis | sam\: and movies that come like that are normally the ones i avoide. :) | 01:10 |
| sam\ | im not sure why i was having problems with that then | 01:10 |
| micah | can someone help me with my wireless internet? | 01:10 |
| jimmyjh | sam\ more than likely extract the first and it will assemble the rest "like in windows" | 01:10 |
| e0n` | So quick hack question, how can I when ubuntu alternative installer says "Cannot find suitable kernel" force it to install from a apt mirror? | 01:10 |
| sam\ | well its just faster that way :P | 01:10 |
| Dr_Willis | could be a bad archive/torrent. | 01:10 |

| richardbeer | Hi, I am trying to compile a kernel with high memory support, however when I open xconfig, and select all options, the high memory support option is greyed out and I am unable to activate it, is there a way to fix this? | 01:11 |
| Dr_Willis | amd was the first common 64bit cpu out to the masses :) | 01:11 |
| jimmyjh | sam\ it the amd64 is for intel or amd that supports 64bit | 01:11 |

| sam\ | can i use norton partition magic to creat hard drive partition then install ubuntu? | 01:34 |
| Jason2gs | mibbsy, I think NTFS on the SATA, one of the other IDEs had Windows installed on it, so whichever filesystem an older Windows machine would use. FAT (?), FAT32 (?), or NTFS. The third IDE was taken out of an old DVR, and I'm trying to see what was written onto it. (I'm not sure if it should be able to mount or not, but I'm trying my luck.) Unknown what filesystem type is utilized. | 01:34 |
| kditty | Sam\, get gparted live cd | 01:34 |
| sam\ | do i need to make 1 partition or two ext2 ext3 | 01:34 |
| Xristos1 | Hello. What must I include in fstab to always have my "data" partition mounted across restarts (It's ntfs /dev/sda3 and I'd like it to mount even when "dirty" and the "shortcut" visible for all users) | 01:35 |
| jimmyjh | sam\ recommend using gparted or ubuntu's live cd install to edit partitions because it has to be a linux fs | 01:35 |
| kditty | i make mine ext3 i believe, then i make a 2gig partition for swap | 01:35 |
| kditty | jimmyjh, is ext3 correct? | 01:35 |
| sam\ | so i boot this gparted cd? | 01:35 |
| sam\ | and edit my drive that way | 01:35 |
| kditty | yea, download, burn boot | 01:35 |
| jimmyjh | sam\ if you are wanting to install ubuntu, you need to create an ext3 or ext4 mount as / and 1 swap partition | 01:36 |
| sam\ | 10gb should be okay for partition right? | 01:36 |
| sam\ | its a partition from windows ntfs drive | 01:36 |
| azi__ | hm.. i'd like to make an archive of a 40GB direcotry tree. is there anything faster than tar? which is running veeery sloooow | 01:36 |
| kditty | resize current disk to what you want, then work with your freed space and make the partitions as you like | 01:36 |
| Jason2gs | mibbsy, oh. Partitions... The SATA has two partitions, a recovery and the main Windows partition. The one IDE (which has Windows installed) has only one partition, I'm fairly sure. When booting it up before, it gave no options for a recovery partition of any kind, and Windows listed no other partitions. I'm guessing that the third IDE has only one partition, but that's uneducated. | 01:36 |
| sam\ | i have 5 hard drives i have to be carefull not to mess it up :> | 01:37 |
| jimmyjh | sam\: you can always install ubuntu with live cd, and manually edit the partitions yourself | 01:37 |

| jimmyjh | sam\ you can create the partitions in the actual live cd installer | 01:44 |
| sam\ | what would u recomend? | 01:44 |
| jimmyjh | sam\: i dont know about best, i use irc in pidgin | 01:44 |
| Xristos1 | sam\: gparted is on the live cd. you can resize/move etc your windows (I missed your first chat) partitions to make room for your install (again assuming you're duel booting, I missed the start) If I'm barking up the right tree and not in a completely different forest, use the live CD to resize/move partitions then (my personal preference) google ntldr linux and install grub to the / partition then grab the boot stuff with dd and add it to boot.ini. | 01:44 |
| sam\ | i have my R: drive 10gb i can use that? | 01:44 |
| Mike_lifeguard | ok, figured that out, but at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ChangeTTYResolution there is no option for 1280x800 | 01:45 |

| Guest2149 | does anybody knows if the next release of ubuntu will be compatible with mobilty radeon series because jaunty wasn't | 01:53 |
| krishmish | hi guys, how can i see the desktop of another ubuntu desktop machine over the internet? | 01:53 |
| sebsebseb | aly: after install above, I haven't made one after install | 01:54 |
| krishmish | not the ssh way but like a desktop sharing program | 01:54 |
| Xristos1 | krishmish: search vlc in the repos | 01:54 |
| aly | sebsebseb, mibbsy it doesn't matter, i'm grateful, just for you to pay attention to my issues (even if there is more to come =p) | 01:54 |
| krishmish | vnc? u man? | 01:54 |
| krishmish | u mean? | 01:54 |
| mibbsy | Jason2gs: if it's neither of the above, that just leaves your controller. tried the drives in a different machine, or usb-ide bridge? | 01:54 |
| Xristos1 | vnc* : p | 01:54 |
| krishmish | Xristos: VNC u mean? | 01:54 |
| sebsebseb | !vnc | krishmish | 01:54 |
| ubottu | krishmish: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 01:54 |
| krishmish | Xristos: can u help me make it work? | 01:55 |
| aly | I'll be back, see you later people =D and thanks gain | 01:55 |
| aly | again* | 01:55 |
| grndslm | Intel board: G45 + ICH10 + GMA X4500HD ---OR--- Nvidia board: GeForce 9300 + nForce 730i + GeForce 9300 | 01:55 |
| stealth- | how can I restart the ssh server? | 01:55 |
| krishmish | Xristos: im able to use it on a local network | 01:55 |
| krishmish | Xristos: between windows and another ubuntu machine | 01:55 |
| Xristos1 | krishmish: Sure | 01:56 |
| Dream-Ubu | grndslm: processer on the nvidia, and the graphic power? | 01:56 |
| Jason2gs | mibbsy, haven't and haven't. I'll try and get a computer working to try them on. | 01:56 |
| Xristos1 | krishmish: on the same subnet? | 01:56 |
| krishmish | yeah | 01:56 |
| grndslm | Dream-Ubu: processor is irrelevant | 01:56 |
| grndslm | mobo is all that matters for linux compatibility | 01:56 |
| grndslm | i'm surprised nobody here can tell me whether nvidia- or intel-based boards would be better... | 01:56 |
| krishmish | sudo apt-get install vnc will do???to install the necessary packages?? | 01:57 |
| Dream-Ubu | grndslm: GPU... and, what should it matter about the board anything in my thinking will run ubuntu if the graphics can handle it, ive had a 533 run ubuntu | 01:57 |
| grndslm | Dream-Ubu: no... | 01:57 |
| Dream-Ubu | and that had no additional help | 01:57 |
| Dimitree | Flannel, thanks :) installing worked just fine now, can i PM you ? | 01:57 |
| grndslm | i've had intel boards that have "open drivers" yet they cannot do video right | 01:58 |
| Xristos1 | krishmish: tightvncserver | 01:58 |
| grndslm | Dream-Ubu: everything comes down to the North bridge, South bridge, & onboard graphics | 01:58 |
| grndslm | mostly the first 2 | 01:58 |
| Dream-Ubu | what do you mean by cannot do it right | 01:58 |
| krishmish | sudo apt-get install tightvncserver???? | 01:58 |
| grndslm | actually, mostly by first one | 01:58 |
| sebsebseb | krishmish: uhmmm not quite | 01:58 |
| mibbsy | stealth-: something along the lines of /etc/init.d/sshd restart | 01:58 |
| Xristos1 | krishmish: or for a local (fast network) vnc4server | 01:58 |
| marcobed | hi. somehow whenever i click on .deb files they open up like a zip file instead of going into the installation process. any thoughts how to fix this? | 01:58 |
| sebsebseb | krishmish: you might find that xvnc4viewer works better | 01:59 |
| krishmish | Xristos: or can i see this?? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC | 01:59 |
| sebsebseb | krishmish: and if using VNC on the Internet, you should tunnel it over SSH, the link the bot gave | 01:59 |
| krishmish | Xristos: okay | 01:59 |
| grndslm | Intel board: G45 + ICH10 + GMA X4500HD ---OR--- Nvidia board: GeForce 9300 + nForce 730i + GeForce 9300.... which one?? | 02:00 |
| krishmish | Xristos: but im not too gud at ubuntu...im a nube | 02:00 |
| grndslm | Intel board: G45 + ICH10 + GMA X4500HD ---OR--- Nvidia board: GeForce 9300 + nForce 730i + GeForce 9300.... which one?? | 02:00 |
| hoo-hah | hi guys | 02:00 |
| krishmish | can u suggest me something simpler? | 02:00 |
| Dream-Ubu | if you had problems with the intel, try the nvidia :/ | 02:00 |
| hoo-hah | how do i extract the font files from android-font package on ubuntu? | 02:00 |
| krishmish | Xristos: can u suggest me something simpler? | 02:00 |
| gisli | how do i activate the 5.1 sound system in ubuntu i have sound blaster audigy 2 ZS ??? | 02:00 |
| hoo-hah | I only want those fonts available to a certain user | 02:00 |
| grndslm | Dream-Ubu: i'm not playing guessing games here | 02:00 |
| VCoolio | marcobed: right click > properties > open with choose gdebi package installer | 02:00 |
| hoo-hah | so i want to copy to ~/.fonts | 02:00 |
| ARMENIAN | I keep getting unable to mount location failed to retrieve share list from server when i try to connect to get files from a windows share | 02:00 |
| mrwes | marcobed, right click on the deb then properties and then open | 02:01 |
| Dream-Ubu | grndslm: you said you had tried the intel so its process of elimination and now, i shut up :) back to finding wifi drivers | 02:01 |
| krishmish | Xristos: xvnc4viewer u said... | 02:01 |
| hoo-hah | basically, what's a program to 'extract' deb contents? | 02:01 |
| patapouf | Hi, May you have any suggestion where I should find an alternative to CruiseControl ? | 02:01 |
| grndslm | Dream-Ubu: i tried A intel board... the North bridge is much older on this board that i have than the newer ones that i'd expect to work even less so | 02:01 |
| Xristos1 | krishmish: search "vnc" in synaptic and install any vnc server you like. I prefer tightvnc (bandwidth wise) | 02:01 |
| grndslm | ...but you never know with linux | 02:02 |
| sebsebseb | krishmish: server the computer being remote connected to, viewer the computer connecting to the server and viewing the computer | 02:02 |
| krishmish | Xristos: ok | 02:02 |
| Dethroned | How do I uninstall America's Army? I know the file location | 02:02 |
| Dream-Ubu | grndslm: so, go with the nvidia? | 02:02 |
| sebsebseb | krishmish: need a viewer to see the other computer, which is the server | 02:02 |
| grndslm | Dream-Ubu: that's still a guess | 02:03 |
| grndslm | that i'm not willing to risk on a $100+ mobo | 02:03 |
| krishmish | another machine over the internet | 02:03 |
| grndslm | i NEED compatibility | 02:03 |
| stealth- | how can I put myself in the admin group? | 02:03 |
| Dream-Ubu | grndslm: returns policy? i dont know i had ubuntu working on the intel little falls 2, it was fine untill user error came in | 02:04 |
| gisli | how do i activate the 5.1 sound system in ubuntu i have sound blaster audigy 2 ZS ??? anyone? | 02:04 |
| krishmish | Xristos: im doing that | 02:04 |
| mibbsy | !sudo | stealth- | 02:04 |
| ubottu | stealth-: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 02:04 |
| ARMENIAN | I keep getting unable to mount location failed to retrieve share list from server when i try to connect to get files from a windows share | 02:04 |
| try2free | hi | 02:05 |
| try2free | can i use squid with only one ethernet and using transparent proxy? | 02:05 |
| kditty | can anyone help me with my problem of playing xvid and divx files in jaunty jackalope? | 02:05 |
| stealth- | mibbsy: well I need to be in the admin group to run sudo, dont I? | 02:05 |
| Dethroned | How do I uninstall America's Army? I know the file location | 02:05 |
| Flannel | Dethroned: It's in /opt right? | 02:05 |
| kditty | i only get sound and no video | 02:05 |
| Dethroned | flannel: it saved in usr/local/games/armyops | 02:05 |
| fennng | hi | 02:05 |
| sebsebseb | kditty: have you got the codecs installed? | 02:06 |
| mibbsy | stealth-: you should be able to do so with the user you made during install | 02:06 |
| sebsebseb | kditty: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras should take care of that and other propritary stuff | 02:06 |
| sebsebseb | kditty: and which player were you trying to play them in? | 02:06 |
| stealth- | mibbsy: yes, but I want to add another user to the admin group through the command line...... | 02:07 |
| stealth- | mibbsy: Im pretty sure my question is pretty straight forward | 02:07 |
| Dream-Ubu | grndslm: i geussed, it worked and it was fast at loading also the only thing i got wrong was the ram card, read speed was too fast but i fixed it | 02:07 |
| Dethroned | Flannel: It saved in usr/local/games/armyops | 02:09 |
| Flannel | Dethroned: How was it installed? (not a deb, right? but a bin file?) | 02:09 |
| kditty | sebsebseb, ill try that line in terminal but i believe i have it. maybe a reboot after install? | 02:10 |
| bartek | Hi. If I want to convert my existing NTFS partitions to ext3/4 is there any other solution apart from copying all the data in my NTFS, deleting the partition, and remounting it? | 02:10 |
| kunal | hello. how do i get mprime? could i do sudo apt-get install mprime? | 02:10 |
| sebsebseb | kditty: no this is Linux not Windows, you only need to reboot for major stuff, such as say a new kernel | 02:10 |
| kditty | sebsebseb, also i am trying vlc, xine, gxine. mplayer pretty much all of them | 02:10 |
| bartek | kunal: try it? :) When I search for mprime via aptitude I don't get a result, so not sure | 02:10 |
| sebsebseb | kditty: if mplayer can't do it hum | 02:10 |
| theclaw | how do I configure Xnest / Xephyr so that it allows connections from other hosts? xhost +ipaddress didn't work | 02:10 |
| Dethroned | flannel: I believe it was a deb | 02:10 |
| kunal | bartek: same here. so i guess manually? | 02:11 |
| sebsebseb | kditty: Banshee is another, I guess it's better as a music player really though | 02:11 |
| mikepark | stealth-: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sudoers | 02:11 |
| bartek | kunal: well, depends | 02:11 |
| kditty | sebsebseb, it came to this when i ran that line: E: Couldn't find package ubuntu-restricted-extra | 02:11 |
| sebsebseb | kditty: s at the end | 02:11 |
| sebsebseb | kditty: extras | 02:11 |
| Flannel | Dethroned: well, the fact its in /local/ makes me think it wasn't, but we'll go ahead and check to make sure. Fire up synaptic, and search for an americas army package. | 02:11 |
| bartek | kunal: quickly googling looks like you just download it. I don't see it in any general repos | 02:12 |
| kditty | ubuntu-restricted-extras is already the newest version | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | kditty: humm | 02:12 |
| kditty | this is strange | 02:12 |
| jumbers | Is there any way through software to make my notebook speakers sound better? They're obviously inherently tinny, so is there a way to equalize the sound systemwide so that it's not so obvious that they suck? I know I won't get more bass, but it sounds bad since there should be bass and there isn't | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | kditty: maybe midibuntu is of some use in your case, but I thought could just play divx and xvid without needing midibuntu | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | !midibuntu | kditty | 02:13 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about midibuntu | 02:13 |
| sebsebseb | spelling humm | 02:13 |
| kunal | bartek: ok. | 02:13 |
| kunal | bartek: thanks | 02:13 |
| Flannel | Dethroned: Ah, AA apparently includes an uninstall script. So, poke around the AA folders in /usr/local/* (probably lib?) and look for 'uninstall' | 02:13 |
| mibbsy | ah, mibbit hates me tonight - anyway stealth- , i figured you're not trying to set up a multiuser system. so why the second sudoer? | 02:13 |
| kditty | !medibuntu | kditty | 02:14 |
| ubottu | kditty, please see my private message | 02:14 |
| sebsebseb | !medibuntu | kditty | 02:14 |
| ubottu | kditty: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 02:14 |
| jumbers | stealth-: Trying to add yourself to admin on my server? lol | 02:14 |
| stealth- | mikepark: Ill sshing into a friends computer to fix stuff, but I dont want to reset the root password, he wants to still be in control of the system and able to kick me out if he wants. | 02:14 |
| Dethroned | flannel: I found it...how do i run it in the terminal? | 02:14 |
| stealth- | jumbers: heh. No, my friends computer. | 02:14 |
| Flannel | Dethroned: Assuming you're in the same folder as it: sudo ./uninstall | 02:14 |
| stealth- | jumbers: lol | 02:14 |
| jumbers | stealth-: ;) | 02:14 |
| kditty | thans sebsebseb ill check this out brb | 02:14 |
| kditty | thanks* | 02:15 |
| sebsebseb | kditty: if that's no good, your issue is something else entirely it seems | 02:15 |
| Dethroned | flannel: It said command not found | 02:15 |
| Flannel | Dethroned: What's it called in the current directory? | 02:15 |
| pfui | jaunty jackalope is taking up 100% of my cpu but I can't find the culprit in system monitor, any ideas? | 02:15 |
| Dethroned | flannel: but then again i have the file up in the browser...not the terminal | 02:16 |
| Flannel | Dethroned: Ah. Ok. What folder is it in, and what's the file called? | 02:16 |
| Dethroned | flannel: the file itself is called uninstall and it's in usr/local/games/armyops | 02:16 |
| stealth- | mibbsy: Ill sshing into a friends computer to fix stuff, but I dont want to reset the root password, he wants to still be in control of the system and able to kick me out if he wants. | 02:16 |
| jumbers | Did anybody have any idea about the equalizer? | 02:18 |
| Flannel | Dethroned: alright, in a terminal: sudo /usr/local/games/armyops/uninstall | 02:18 |
| Dethroned | flannel: could not find suitable uninstall program ABORTING! AHH! | 02:19 |
| mojodmonkey | hi, does anyone have any experience installing lirc on jaunty? | 02:19 |

| webkris | How do I restart pulse audio? | 02:21 |
| Dream-Ubu | cantfind the info im after :( | 02:22 |
| Flannel | Dethroned: hmm, alright, apparently it might work if we open a root terminal (but I'm not holding my breath), so lets try this: sudo -i, then cd /usr/local/games/armyops, then ./uninstall | 02:22 |
| Dream-Ubu | scowering the forums and nothing | 02:22 |
| whatever123 | i want to know the reason that the load of my pc always go high when i open a web browser,i tried firefox,opera and epiphany....my processor is 2.4 cahse 128,512 ram,128 ati card...so what is the problem? why the system is too heavy.... | 02:22 |
| Dream-Ubu | netgear w511v2 drivers | 02:22 |
| stealth- | mikepark: well he added me to it, but yeah I got him to do it graphically. I just wanted to avoid that cause I hate having to talk people through GUI stuff over the phone :S | 02:23 |
| teethdood | I backed up some files in windows to a USB drive, installed ubuntu, but now I can't view/copy/move any saved files from the USB drive (permission denied) even with root. Any ideas? | 02:23 |
| Dethroned | Flannel: Wow...Thanks so much for your help! I think I'm beginning to understand linux...sort of | 02:23 |
| Flannel | Dethroned: Did that actually work? | 02:23 |
| stealth- | mikepark: he was adding me, so I could troubleshoot his machine. Like I said though, we got it all figured out :) thanks, though | 02:23 |
| azi__ | i've specifed another directory as my home dir and now at each boot ubuntu warns me that directory doesn't exists and I have to mount it manually. where should I specify that /dev/sda2 is mounted to /media/disk? | 02:23 |
| Dethroned | Flannel: yeah...went off without a hitch...and really fast | 02:24 |
| Flannel | Dethroned: Alright. That just means the uninstaller is *creative*. Alright, once its done, type 'exit' to get back to a regular (your user) terminal (or just close the whole thing, if you already did) | 02:24 |
| Dethroned | Flannel: I did that. Thanks again for your help. | 02:25 |
| Flannel | Dethroned: No problem | 02:25 |
| Dethroned | Flannel: Do you recommend any method for teaching myself that kind of stuff? I pretty much only know windows commands | 02:25 |
| Flannel | !terminal | Dethroned | 02:25 |
| ubottu | Dethroned: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 02:26 |
| Flannel | Dethroned: It's just all about familiarity. Don't worry if it doesn't stick. Actually, more important than terminal commands is permissions. Once you understand file permissions, lots of other issues make more sense: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 02:27 |
| Chaorain | AVG filled my HDD with a back up so I deleted /opt/avg but my HDD is still full. Help? | 02:27 |
| pfui | I just installed ubuntu 9.04 and it's running pretty slow with cpu usage at 100% most of the time, any ideas? | 02:27 |
| Chaorain | pfui, did you install graphics drivers? | 02:27 |
| stealth- | pfui: run the command 'top' to get a general idea of whats taking so much CPU | 02:28 |
| pfui | I'm running an old radeon 7500, I don't need the new binary drivers afaik | 02:28 |
| pfui | stealth-, that's the problem, there's no obvious culprit | 02:28 |
| pfui | I'm running nothing beside xchat & firefox | 02:28 |
| pfui | and cpu usage appears to be high all the time, irrespective of what apps I'm running | 02:29 |
| stealth- | pfui: well it might not be a GUI program. Something might have messed up, or maybe updatedb is running all the time. Your cpu throttling might also not be working properly | 02:29 |
| pfui | what's normal usage btw? on windows I get ~20% | 02:29 |
| venger | either way top is going to show whats consuming the cpu, so what is it? xorg? | 02:30 |
| lstarnes | pfui: I average about 5% | 02:30 |
| pfui | xorg | 02:30 |
| stealth- | pfui: Im at 10% with a music player and firefox on a pentium 4 | 02:30 |
| stealth- | pfui: xorg would be a gui application, then | 02:30 |
| venger | can ati make sure of the "Events" option? | 02:30 |
| venger | sure=use... | 02:30 |
| pfui | stealth-, can I tell which one? | 02:30 |
| Joeseph | Hi. I'm trying to chainload into F11 from my ubuntu grub install. Fedora 11 is on sdb, or (hd1). I have the commands "rootnoverify (hd1,0)" "makeactive" and "chainloader +1" and I'm getting error 13. Any ideas? | 02:31 |
| stealth- | pfui: afaik, xorg is the general handler of GUI programs, I dont think there is a way to get specific | 02:31 |
| nk | anyone running jaunty jackalope on a older thinkpad t41? | 02:31 |
| venger | i lessened xorg cpu usuage, but this is on nvidia, putting Option "UseEvents" "on" in the device section of xorg.conf | 02:31 |
| pfui | so I'm stuck? | 02:31 |
| lstarnes | pfui: are you using compiz? | 02:31 |
| pfui | lstarnes, nope | 02:32 |
| lstarnes | pfui: any special effects? | 02:32 |
| * nk is wondering if i should use the open source ati driver or install ati's | 02:32 | |
| sebsebseb | Joeseph: F11 :) | 02:32 |
| Joeseph | nk: I'm running it on a thinkpad A30. | 02:32 |
| pfui | lstarnes, nope | 02:32 |
| stealth- | pfui: Im out of ideas, im sure there are other ways to find out, though. | 02:32 |
| nk | Joeseph: what video card does your thinkpad use? | 02:32 |
| sebsebseb | Joeseph: chainland hummm I thought that was more of a when booting with Windows thing, than when booting with other distros | 02:32 |
| gsr1986 | Hey everyone | 02:32 |
| pfui | stealth-, ok, thanks for your time | 02:32 |
| stealth- | pfui: np | 02:33 |
| stamat | yo! | 02:33 |
| stamat | :) | 02:33 |
| Joeseph | sebsebseb: I want each of their grubs to be independent. So I don't have to manually edit them each time a new kernel update and stuff. | 02:33 |
| stealth- | !hi | stamat and gsr1986 | 02:33 |
| ubottu | stamat and gsr1986: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 02:33 |
| sebsebseb | Joeseph: sounds like a good idea, but I don't know about that | 02:33 |
| venger | pfui, what vid driver are you using again? | 02:33 |
| stamat | thy! | 02:33 |
| Joeseph | nk: Radeon Mobility M6 LY | 02:33 |
| stamat | how are you people | 02:33 |
| stamat | :D | 02:33 |
| frankS2 | &/jo\\\\\\\\\\\\\ | 02:33 |
| pfui | venger, open source ati | 02:33 |

| ubottu | stamat: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 02:33 |
| nk | hmm, i have a radeon 9000 | 02:33 |
| nk | ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV250 [Mobility FireGL 9000] (rev 02) | 02:34 |
| PWilder | Xbox 360 and Intrepid? | 02:34 |
| nk | are you guys using the xorg driver or fglrx? | 02:34 |
| lstarnes | PWilder: what about it? | 02:34 |
| gsr1986 | I'm using the ubuntu livecd to resize some of my partitions using gparted. However, 2 of them are locked. sda1-sda3 are regular partitions, and sda4 is extended to sda5 (fat32) and sda6 (linux-swap). sda4 and sda6 are showing locked, but they don't seem to be mounted. What else could cause this? | 02:35 |
| Joeseph | sebsebseb: Fedora 11 boots fine if I just plug it in as master... Chainloading should just open up another bootloader, right? | 02:35 |
| PWilder | Well, with windows I was able to use My lappy to connect it to XBOX live | 02:35 |
| PWilder | Is that possible with Intrepid? | 02:35 |
| mibbsy | stealth-: bit late, but usermod -G admin -a username | 02:35 |
| pw-toxic_ | yippih, i finally got my ubuntu running on my SSD... but now my SWAP partitions isnt used anymore.. how can i set my swap partition manually? | 02:35 |
| sebsebseb | Joeseph: as I said I don't really know that much about Grub, also probably a better solution than dual booting two or more distros, would be to virtual machine the others, with enough RAM | 02:35 |
| Joeseph | nk: I'm using the default drivers (whichever ones those are).... I don't have effects on, cause I can't watch DVDs with effects on. | 02:35 |
| stealth- | mibbsy: lol. No, not late at all, it was driving me crazy. thanks | 02:35 |
| cadu | Joeseph: you can install as many distros as you want, you dont even need to chainload the bootloaders | 02:36 |
| venger | pfui, why don't you give the binary driver a whirl as a basis for comparison? | 02:36 |
| Joeseph | sebsebseb: I've got about a gig. I guess that's enough. 512 megs for each should be enough. | 02:36 |
| sebsebseb | Joeseph: dual boot, triple boot < virtual machines | 02:36 |
| Fragsworth | why is my volume control backwards | 02:36 |
| Fragsworth | mousewheel up turns the volume down... | 02:36 |
| cadu | Joeseph: in the last distro you put the bootloader in MBR , and most distros anyway now pickup the other OS you have installed and add the correct entries on the main grub ;) | 02:37 |
| pfui | venger, I'm have an old radeon 7000 that's not supported by the new drivers | 02:37 |
| sebsebseb | Joeseph: 512MB RAM and the VM might be a bit slow, 1GB it will be fien | 02:37 |
| Joeseph | cadu: It's my understanding that I will have to update the grub manually whenever I get kernel updates, etc. Is this true? | 02:37 |
| cadu | Joeseph: yeah | 02:37 |
| === pepito_ is now known as metal1369 | ||
| lstarnes | Joeseph: mine is automatically updated | 02:37 |
| Joeseph | sebsebseb: I have 1 gig total. that leaves 512 for each os. | 02:37 |
| sebsebseb | Joeseph: upgrading menu.lst manually, because of new kernels isn't that bad, been there done that, a few times | 02:37 |
| saxofoner | http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=15764107 help me pick. amd or intel? | 02:37 |
| Joeseph | lstarnes: Which two oses do you have? | 02:38 |
| Chaorain | is there a command that tells me what is filling my HDD? Disk usage analyzer is not working right | 02:38 |
| sebsebseb | Joeseph: not quite, ,because of the way for example Virtualbox does the virtual RAM | 02:38 |
| cadu | Joeseph: the thing is | 02:38 |
| Joeseph | sebsebseb: okay. | 02:38 |
| === aaditya is now known as dragon_ | ||
| lstarnes | Joeseph: never mind, I've misread the whole situation | 02:38 |
| PWilder | No ones knows if this is possible? | 02:38 |
| dragon_ | !botabuse > ubottu | 02:38 |
| ubottu | dragon_, please see my private message | 02:38 |
| sebsebseb | Joeseph: by default it puts 300 something for a VM, you'll see or know what I mean if you try | 02:38 |
| lstarnes | Joeseph: I thought you were talking about something else | 02:38 |
| Joeseph | lstarnes: oh. | 02:38 |
| cabrey | saxofoner, how much money are you willing to blow? | 02:38 |
| wolf23 | help please! i install virtualbox-2.2_2.2.4-47978_Ubuntu_jaunty_amd64.deb and then i cant found it on applications .....! how can i open it thanx | 02:39 |
| lstarnes | wolf23: what about under applications > system tools? | 02:39 |
| Joeseph | sebsebseb: Well, I'm trying to do this on the machine I try to leave up-to-date and productive. I wouldn't have a problem doing that on my spare machine, but I always like to have my productive machine working. | 02:39 |
| saxofoner | cabrey: if you take out either the AMD or Intel CPU/mobo combination, it's about 650 total. so they're close. | 02:39 |
| cadu | Joeseph: each linux distro's /boot/grub/menu.lst won't know of each other | 02:40 |
| sebsebseb | Joeseph: well dual triple or whatever, bootting, more than one distro, seems pointless to me, if the computer has enough RAM to VM the others | 02:40 |
| cabrey | wolf23, give gnome a chance, it will update the menus. and when it does, Applications > System Tools > Sun VirtualBox | 02:40 |
| cabrey | wolf23, in the mean time, VirtualBox in a terminal will do | 02:40 |
| cadu | sebsebseb: maybe he's choosing the best distro for him | 02:40 |
| venger | pfui, you want my old 9800xt or x1900xtx? | 02:40 |
| sebsebseb | cadu: well you put the one you think is best for your usage, as host or whatever, and vm others :) | 02:40 |
| cabrey | saxofoner, you'll get a better value with the AMD system, quad cores > dual cores | 02:40 |
| saxofoner | true but if I put in the Q8400 they'd cost the same | 02:40 |
| losher | Chaorain: open a terminal and run 'du -x | sort -rn > du.out' then postbin the du.out | 02:41 |
| pfui | venger, how nice of you, do ship internationally? | 02:41 |
| wolf23 | lstarnes, i cant see system tools :( | 02:41 |
| wolf23 | cabrey, Error stating file '/home/hendaus/virtualbox': No such file or directory | 02:41 |
| cabrey | saxofoner, DON'T BUY ATI!! | 02:41 |
| mibbsy | pfui: from what i remember, there's an era of "unlucky, because noone has it" era of ati cards. for the really old ones that have been in onboard chips a lot, there are still people hacking away on drivers from scratch. yours might be one of the not-so-well-supported ones. check out the wiki at x.org | 02:41 |
| saxofoner | cabrey: why? | 02:41 |
| cabrey | wolf23, linux is case sensitive | 02:41 |
| cabrey | saxofoner, because of the recent stunt ATI pulled | 02:41 |
| lstarnes | cabrey: what stunt? | 02:41 |
| saxofoner | cabrey: what exactly? | 02:41 |
| ThomasHC | FUCK YOU ALL! | 02:42 |
| Joeseph | sebsebseb, cadu: Well... Do either of you know of a good way to keep both my machines up to date and productive? (eg., I don't have to edit menu.lst a lot?) | 02:42 |
| pfui | mibbsy, it used to work pretty fine on LTS | 02:42 |
| cabrey | saxofoner, they dropped support for 2/3 year old cards, rendering them useless in jaunty | 02:42 |
| cabrey | saxofoner, besides the open source driver | 02:42 |
| saxofoner | so I should get the more expensive Gtx 275? | 02:42 |
| lstarnes | cabrey: I'm using nvidia for graphics with AMD processors | 02:42 |
| cadu | Joeseph: well | 02:42 |
| saxofoner | I might just run windows on this desktop and linux on my laptop | 02:42 |
| sebsebseb | cadu and Joeseph I might get rid of Ubuntu 9.04 and put Fedora 11 on as host :) not sure yet, should vm Fedora 11 first really inside Ubuntu. and if I do this i'll probably end up putting Ubuntu 9.10 on as host, and then VM Fedora | 02:43 |
| cabrey | saxofoner, depends on what you're doing, but the 98xx series is good | 02:43 |
| pw-toxic_ | nobody knows how i can activate a swap partition for my ubuntu? | 02:43 |
| jdu | does the ubiquity installer partitioner ever cause porblems when resizing vista c: | 02:43 |
| cadu | Joeseph: once you have your setup working, with that i mean all your hardware supported on the current kernel, little reason to ever touch that ;) | 02:43 |
| cabrey | pw-toxic, sudo swapon | 02:43 |
| wolf23 | cabrey, so what can i do to fix it? | 02:43 |
| sebsebseb | Joeseph: if more than one distro on the same computer, well you can share the home between them | 02:43 |
| cadu | Joeseph: it's a thing you'll have to do like, once in 6 months, if you feel like upgrading a kernel | 02:43 |
| cabrey | wolf23, linux is case sensitive, run VirtualBox | 02:43 |
| mibbsy | pfui: looks like cabrey might know something more | 02:43 |
| saxofoner | so cabrey, the 4890 doesn't work with jaunty? I read it will work with karmic | 02:44 |
| Joeseph | sebsebseb: I was warned against home sharing of the distro... Something about uids and permissions and differences in them. | 02:44 |
| jamiejackson | i converted my wife from win to ubuntu, and now i have to un-DRM her itunes-purchased files. can someone give me the quick lowdown on QTFairUse6 or similar on Ubuntu (like is there a deb for it, etc.) | 02:44 |
| losher | sebsebseb: I'd like to know what advantage there is to running fedora 11 over Ubuntu? | 02:44 |
| Chaorain | losher, sert: writ failed: standard output: No space left on drive | 02:44 |
| cabrey | pfui, your card (radeon 7000, correct?) was dropped a LONG time ago | 02:44 |
| pfui | cabrey, yup | 02:44 |
| onethekjrekjfads | hello all | 02:44 |
| sebsebseb | losher: oh loads of stuff it seems, according to there feature list, but this is off topic here | 02:45 |
| onethekjrekjfads | I have a quick question | 02:45 |
| pfui | cabrey, dropped? as in, no longer supported? | 02:45 |
| wolf23 | cabrey, yes it opens now thanx :) | 02:45 |
| sebsebseb | losher: also apparnatly quite a few of those fatures will be in Ubuntu 9.10 anyway | 02:45 |
| Flannel | jamiejackson: I believe apple recommends burning them to CDs, then ripping them off CDs | 02:45 |
| saxofoner | losher: you can't ask that question here. it makes no sense. | 02:45 |
| saxofoner | you'd get a different answer on the fedora channel | 02:45 |
| bartek | Hmm. I seem to have two partitions with Jaunty installed, but that doesn't make much sense to me. Both on the same driver, one has the `boot` flag and is mounted to / .. the other is mounted on /media/disk-1 .. something tells me this one isn't used, is there any way to verify before I kill the partition? | 02:45 |
| Joeseph | sebsebseb: Ha! I got it! Find the line from the current menu.lst of the Fedora partition, add it at the bottom of the ubuntu one, so my ubuntu one is still always up to date, and it still updates my menu.lst of my fedora partition, so I only have to copy and paste when it upgrades. | 02:46 |
| wolf23 | cabrey, but why it cant creat system tools??? | 02:46 |
| losher | sebsebseb: Ah. I remember now. Fedora seems to pride itself at new features. You pay a price for that, of course... | 02:46 |
| * bartek thinks its his super old debian install but not sure | 02:46 | |
| sebsebseb | losher: a price what? and yes Fedora is more cutting edge than Ubuntu, also a little remember about off topic | 02:46 |
| onethekjrekjfads | my laptop mini pci-e card (broadcom 43xx) wireless b/g card is failing. It randomly picks works an cuts out on all three of my OSs on my laptops tripple boot. | 02:46 |
| losher | Chaorain: that's because there's no space left. Do you have any space on any other filesystems handy? | 02:46 |
| onethekjrekjfads | I plan on getting a different card what would be a better replacement as the broadcom support was a joke | 02:46 |
| saxofoner | http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=15764107 updated with quad core intel. So any non fanboys have input? | 02:47 |
| cabrey | pfui, yes, it's quite old. ati dropped support for relatively new cards with the release of fglrx 9.4 & 9.5 | 02:47 |
| Chaorain | losher, yes. lots | 02:47 |
| cadu | Joeseph: anyway | 02:47 |
| pfui | cabrey, yes, but it's still supported by the open-source drivers, no? | 02:47 |
| pw-toxic_ | i have opened gparted and i can see two seperated "unallocated" spaces.. how can i combine them so i can create one partition out of both unallocated spaces? | 02:47 |
| mibbsy | onethekjrekjfads: atheros chipsets are generally good | 02:47 |
| |Ryan | Need help - My 'Add/remove' option has gone from the Application menu, how can I get it back? | 02:47 |
| losher | sebsebseb: ok, we're off-topic. But in general, new features & stability are inversely proportional. | 02:47 |
| cadu | Joeseph: if you install UBUNTU later, it'll most surely detect it and add it in the first time automagically to its grub ;) | 02:47 |
| cadu | Joeseph: in the first time ;P | 02:47 |
| cabrey | pfui, it should be | 02:47 |
| onethekjrekjfads | mibbsy thanks | 02:48 |
| sebsebseb | losher: some want stability big time, others want the latest stuff big time | 02:48 |
| Joeseph | cadu: Did you see the solution I said to sebsebseb earlier? I think it'll work great. | 02:48 |
| pfui | cabrey, could that be the cause of my high cpu usage? | 02:48 |
| cadu | Joeseph: OR, you can chainload all distros bootloaders and install the last one in the MBR | 02:48 |
| losher | Chaorain: open a terminal and run 'du -x | sort -rn > /other/filesystem/with/lots/of/space/du.out' then postbin the du.out | 02:48 |
| cabrey | pfui, what? fill me in | 02:48 |
| |Ryan | Need help - My 'Add/remove' option has gone from the Application menu, how can I get it back? | 02:48 |
| PWilder | Anyone know which Repo I need to get Fuppes? | 02:48 |
| PWilder | !Fuppes | 02:48 |
| RobotCow | hello, does anyone know if theres software that can read (text to speech) scanned pages? | 02:48 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about Fuppes | 02:48 |
| cabrey | !info fuppes | 02:49 |
| ubottu | Package fuppes does not exist in jaunty | 02:49 |
| jamiejackson | Flannel: yeah, apple's recommendation kinda blows tho, as far as efficiency. are there any bulk options for un-DRM-ing itunes? | 02:49 |
| losher | sebsebseb: ok, just wondered if I was missing something more profound. I'm a stability fan myself... | 02:49 |
| PWilder | !FUPPES | 02:49 |
| cadu | Joeseph: add the line of the fedora in the ubuntu menu.lst? it'll work fine | 02:49 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about FUPPES | 02:49 |
| pfui | cabrey, my cpu usage is pretty, high most of the time it's close to 100% with Xorg responsible for most of it | 02:49 |
| sebsebseb | losher: Ubuntu 9.04 is missing loads of stuff compared to Fedora 11, find their feature list and see for yourself, but as I already said apparnatly Ubuntu 9.10 will have quite a few of those features | 02:49 |
| cadu | Joeseph: but if you update the fedora kernel and select "dont update grub" (assuming it ALLOWS you to do that) the kernel will be different from the version in ubuntu's menu.lt | 02:49 |
| cadu | Joeseph: it won't boot the next time you update it | 02:49 |
| onethekjrekjfads | is there an atheros in particular are the atheros n cards anygood because my linksys n card has really weak range (weaker than my broadcom wireless g) | 02:50 |
| Flannel | jamiejackson: Not in Linux (although maybe in wine). Just because all of those de-DRM tools basically use itunes to do the decoding (or a library, or something like that). And there is no itunes for Linux. You'll just have to remove it before the switch. | 02:50 |
| PWilder | FUPPES! | 02:50 |
| Flannel | jamiejackson: Or at least, that was accurate a year ago. Things may have changed, I haven't kept up. | 02:50 |
| PWilder | There has to be someone who knows about it | 02:50 |
| losher | sebsebseb: I don't even run 9.04. I'm on 8.04.2. I guess Fedora isn't for me... | 02:50 |
| Joeseph | cadu: When it updates, it'll probably update it's own menu.lst, allowing me to copy and paste the new line at the bottom of my menu.lst | 02:50 |
| cabrey | pfui, did you see this by chance? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/HighCPU | 02:50 |
| cadu | Joeseph: yeah, but you'll have to do it manually ;) | 02:51 |
| sebsebseb | losher: well it dosan't sound like it, since your running 8.04.2 | 02:51 |
| bullgard4 | Is the Desktop User Guide http://library.gnome.org/users/user-guide/stable/ available as a .pdf file, so that I can grep it as a whole? | 02:51 |
| cadu | Joeseph: do you wanna know the automatic way? | 02:51 |
| pfui | ugh, nope | 02:51 |
| cadu | Joeseph: no menu.lst editing whatsoever | 02:51 |
| pfui | cabrey, I'll check it out, ty | 02:51 |
| losher | Chaorain: did my new command make sense? | 02:51 |
| Joeseph | cadu: Sure. I'll take a listen. | 02:51 |
| mikepark | RobotCow: festival does text-to-speech | 02:51 |
| jamiejackson | Flannel: i've got a windows VM i can monkey with. do the tools still work with itunes these days? it's hard to find direct current info | 02:51 |
| losher | sebsebseb: that's fine. It's not like you said 'oh, it's another world over there. Got to be seen to be believed' :-) | 02:51 |
| mibbsy | onethekjrekjfads: generally yes. you might need to install a 3rd antenna for MIMO though if you get a N card | 02:51 |
| Flannel | jamiejackson: That's my understanding. | 02:51 |
| cabrey | pfui, and no, the radeon driver should not be causing 100% usage, it should be doing the opposite | 02:51 |
| cadu | Joeseph: install linux-distro1, bootloader on the PARTITION, install linux-distro2, bootloader on the PARTITION, install last-distro, BOOT on MBR | 02:52 |
| cadu | Joeseph: then | 02:52 |
| onethekjrekjfads | is this a good replacement for my 43xx http://tinyurl.com/atherosgcard | 02:52 |
| Chaorain | losher, paste-it.net/public/zb235ff/ | 02:52 |
| jamiejackson | okay, i guess torrents are the way to go for that stuff, Flannel. i'll give it a go | 02:52 |
| cadu | Joeseph: you add the 2 linuxdistros entries in the last-distro menu.lst as "chainloader +1" | 02:52 |
| RobotCow | mikepark, but when something is scanned in a scanner, its not in text format | 02:52 |
| cadu | Joeseph: and do that outside of the "==automagic kernel list==" so it wont get erased | 02:52 |
| cadu | Joeseph: result: you update your kernels using the normal distro way in any distro, they update their own grubs | 02:53 |
| nick125 | onethekjrekjfads: What 43xx card do you have? | 02:53 |
| cadu | Joeseph: if you update your last-distro kernel, it'll update but the OTHER DISTROS entries wont vanish... | 02:53 |
| cadu | Joeseph: no menu.lst editing | 02:53 |
| onethekjrekjfads | i belive 4311 | 02:53 |
| onethekjrekjfads | its b/g | 02:53 |
| cabrey | saxofoner, just in case you are interested: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=amd_r500_legacy&num=1 | 02:54 |
| PWilder | Anyone know of another UNpN server that will handle Xbox 360? | 02:54 |
| cadu | Joeseph: and, as a final touch, edit the menu.lst in the "innermost" (chainloaded) grubs and put a delay of like 1sec so you wont't even know it's there | 02:54 |
| Fragsworth | anyone else have the problem where the mousewheel volume control is backwards? | 02:54 |
| cadu | Joeseph: if you need someday to alter boot parameters on those just keep tapping ESC and you're set, boot is halted. | 02:54 |
| saxofoner | cabrey: thanks | 02:54 |
| cadu | Joeseph: what do you think? | 02:54 |
| sebsebseb | losher: Ubuntu is good for new users, and good enough to stay with for many people. Fedora is generally for people who are resasonably experienced with Linux. ArchLinux, Slackware, and Gentoo are for people who are rather experienced with Linux. Find out more about distros at http://www.distrowatch.com This is also a good thing to end the off topic with. | 02:54 |
| onethekjrekjfads | it randomly stops working in all three systems in my triple boot. (win 7, xp and ubuntu) | 02:54 |
| cadu | sebsebseb: forgot Debian in the experienced crowd! ;D | 02:54 |
| nick125 | PWilder: When I last looked, fuppes was the only one that had decent transcoding support and xbox 360 support | 02:54 |
| cadu | sebsebseb: anyway debian is as easy as pie! apt-get rules it all! | 02:55 |
| nick125 | onethekjrekjfads: What kind of notebook is it? (I'm assuming it's a notebook...) | 02:55 |
| onethekjrekjfads | then just works on reboot without reinstalling or changing any drivers at all. this just began happening recently. | 02:55 |
| Joeseph | cadu: Hm.... Well... That would require me to either reinstall grub, or to reinstall the distros... which I don't want to do right now.... My way will work for now. If I ever do it again though, I'll remember that. | 02:55 |
| PWilder | nick125: which repos do I need to get fuppes? | 02:55 |
| PWilder | I cannot find it in Synaptic | 02:55 |
| onethekjrekjfads | hp tx1417cl | 02:55 |
| matrixblue | anyone know an iPod sync plugin for rhythmbox? I'm fed up with banshee | 02:55 |
| sebsebseb | cadu: Debian is a bit more complex than Ubuntu I suppouse yeah. | 02:55 |
| onethekjrekjfads | pavilion but it is a tablet | 02:55 |
| sebsebseb | cadu: still not tried it out properly myself | 02:55 |
| onethekjrekjfads | i pulled the card it is mini pci-e | 02:56 |
| cadu | sebsebseb: yes but apt-get makes package installing and problem solving so easy, i don't know what other distros are doing with their crappy package management tools but...apt-get got it right | 02:56 |
| nick125 | onethekjrekjfads: I know that some BIOSes will lock out cards that aren't "approved" | 02:56 |
| KillerX | well boys im a super noob and since playing arund with ubuntu I loved it and installed it but now I tried to install my grf driver and it says I need super user privliges what do I do here? | 02:56 |
| Joeseph | sebsebseb: F11 supports my webcam... It's easier to boot it up every once in a while than to install the drivers, install the patch, and then edit some config files of my webcam.... | 02:56 |
| losher | Chaorain: ok, from top to bottom in that listing are the biggest things on your disk in K, i.e. ./Flash drive/FEDORA is about 6.4G, next is Desktop at around 4G, then Azureus Downloads at 2.5G and so on. Does this help? | 02:56 |
| cadu | sebsebseb: the "problem solving" part of apt-get is what makes it strong and not prone to breaking your system, if it's gonna leave strange stuff it aborts before doing anything ;P | 02:56 |
| sebsebseb | cadu: that KDE 4 something vm I think was running on Debian, the one I ran when trying a development version. Well apparantly ArchLinux has something that is better than apt-get. | 02:56 |
| cabrey | sebsebseb, ;) | 02:56 |
| nick125 | PWilder: All the tutorials for Ubuntu say to compile it...interestingly enough. | 02:57 |
| losher | sebsebseb: thanks... | 02:57 |
| cadu | sebsebseb: what added features? | 02:57 |
| sebsebseb | cabrey: ah yes it was you who told me that wasn't it? | 02:57 |
| Chaorain | losher, yes but my hdd is 60gb and its full | 02:57 |
| PWilder | right, but I don't know where to get it from nick125 | 02:57 |
| sebsebseb | cadu: you mean with Fedora? | 02:57 |
| Joeseph | sebsebseb: pacman or something, right? | 02:57 |
| onethekjrekjfads | I had no idea. so maybe a direct replacement is best? I do know wireless N plus bluetooth was an option | 02:57 |
| cabrey | sebsebseb, yup, arch installed on my netbook under 2 minutes (mind you, i then had to configure it) | 02:57 |
| onethekjrekjfads | so i might look for that card should work | 02:57 |
| Chaorain | losher, and I can't figure out why | 02:57 |
| cadu | sebsebseb: nope, the Archlinux package manager, you said it has some features that are better than apt-get and deb | 02:57 |
| sebsebseb | Joeseph: yes that's what I meant | 02:57 |
| Pici | !offtopic | 02:57 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 02:57 |
| mikepark | RobotCow: i guess you would need to use an OCR tool first to convert to text? | 02:57 |
| nick125 | onethekjrekjfads: If you can find the same card, that'd work. If not, look for a card that was offered OE for that notebook. | 02:58 |
| cabrey | sorry Pici | 02:58 |
| sebsebseb | Pici: indeed at that, I kill the off topic with one guy, only to have others doing new off topic hum | 02:58 |
| cadu | i just joined ubuntu-offtopic | 02:58 |
| nick125 | PWilder: http://sourceforge.net/projects/fuppes | 02:58 |
| cadu | Pici: hey sorry but i'm a heavy offtopic'er ;( forgive me ;P | 02:58 |
| sebsebseb | yeah that's a good idea, guys we can continue the off topic in #ubuntu-offtopic or something | 02:58 |
| onethekjrekjfads | is there a way to check if my bios will lock out atheros ? | 02:58 |
| KillerX | anyone? | 02:58 |
| Aquina | n8 | 02:59 |

| losher | ditty_kong: I would say not a chance. But you might well be able to find a corresponding version of the same module on those distros | 03:45 |
| ditty_kong | @elli, where did you get that? what did you input into terminal to get that | 03:45 |
| spursncowboys1 | myself: like conky? | 03:45 |
| myself | conky is hard to set up | 03:45 |
| myself | i dont know how to do it | 03:46 |
| myself | whats the command to get google gadgets | 03:46 |
| spursncowboys1 | yeah I had a hard time too. there is a really good how to though in the ubuntu forum | 03:46 |
| myself | hey linux | 03:46 |
| myself | haha | 03:46 |
| ditty_kong | @ losher.....that is unfortunate.... is it because it is a .deb package? Settiung it up in fedora would require a .rpm and Sabayon I think compiles like Gentoo. I can't convert a .deb into a .rpm? | 03:46 |

| losher | ditty_kong: the packaging is only the tip of the iceberg. The kernel versions won't match. And who knows what else may be different between the 3 distros. It would be a miracle if it 'just worked' | 03:49 |

| RobotCow | when i use convert to convert a pdf to image file, it only converts the first page. how can i get it to convert all pages? | 03:49 |
| ditty_kong | Well Fedora uses a brand new kernal (no surprise there) but sabayon i think is the same | 03:50 |
| pinkey | How can I add a launcher icon (Gnome) that runs as root? I used a sudo command but it didn't prompt for password and appeared to do "nothing". | 03:50 |
| ditty_kong | i see why it wouldn't work though, thanks anyway. | 03:50 |
| lstarnes | pinkey: use gksudo for graphical programs, not sudo | 03:50 |
| losher | ditty_kong: feel free to try it & report back.... | 03:51 |
| cabrey | ditty_kong, it is quite complex | 03:51 |
| ditty_kong | I guess I could use the xp driver for it and then use ndiswrapper | 03:51 |
| pinkey | lstarnes, it's not graphical, though. | 03:51 |
| losher | ditty_kong: much more chance of ndiswrapper working, IMO. | 03:51 |
| pinkey | lstar, I just want to run rc.local start, since it doesn't seem to work during startup. | 03:52 |

| pinkey | lstarnes, it is. It's strange, but my HP machine has wired connection, but has "wifi" capabilities. Whenever I boot, the wifi light blinks incessantly. In rc.local, I put this '/sbin/ifconfig ra0 down' and it makes the blinking light stop. It is immediately before the exit line. | 03:55 |
| pinkey | but it doesn't work at startup, but works just fine when run manually. | 03:55 |

| andrewcool | lstarnes It didn't work | 04:22 |

| chaorain_ | lstarnes, http://paste.ubuntu.com/194786/ | 04:23 |
| ctmjr | JusticeZero, you should boot into rescue mode get rid of any ati drivers then run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 04:23 |
| JusticeZero | how do I get rid of the ati drivers, not knowing what they are called and not being able to boot into Gnome? | 04:23 |

| rdog | does that latest ubuntu install FireFox 3.0.11 or FireFox beta? | 04:42 |

| laser28383 | after an update jaunty won't mount my harddrive, any ideas? | 05:12 |
| matthew_ | what happens is when ever i load the video the video player crashes im new to ubuntu and just installed it | 05:13 |
| lindzeyn | if I want a script to execute upon bootup, I make the script visible from /etc/init.d/ right? | 05:13 |
| disappearedng | brEz I don't think it's a third party thing | 05:13 |
| brEz | that's what I've always done :) | 05:13 |
| matthew_ | do u no whats wrong with my video player? | 05:14 |
| brEz | also makes it easier if you need to access your box from outaside of your LAN | 05:14 |
| brEz | or | 05:14 |
| matthew_ | i just want to watch this vid | 05:14 |
| matthew_ | im useing xubuntu | 05:14 |
| matthew_ | if that might be the reason | 05:15 |
| paulo----- | hello | 05:15 |
| brEz | disappearedng: alternatively, you can use "hostname.local" | 05:15 |
| laser28383 | bind9 is pretty easy to setup, and it uses your lan ip addresses, if you use dyndns each would need its own external ip, but they probably all run through one router if you have my setup, | 05:15 |
| paulo----- | can anyone give me the md5 of ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso? | 05:15 |
| brEz | just worked for me | 05:16 |
| matthew_ | any one no why i cant watch this video | 05:16 |
| matthew_ | ? | 05:16 |
| laser28383 | it would only work if they have their own gateway | 05:16 |
| brEz | I didn't setup a gateway & mine works. | 05:17 |
| Jeruvy | paulo-----: http://mirrors.gigenet.com/ubuntu/9.04/ (just one of many mirrors) and view the md5sum file | 05:17 |

| Neconide | usser: yeah | 05:25 |
| Neconide | usser: but not that much. | 05:25 |
| richj | Neconide, you should be able to do it with gparted without needing a livecd. Just add a new partition to the unused space | 05:25 |
| Neconide | usser: when I went to add a new partition gparted said it needed to recreate /dev/sda. | 05:25 |
| Jeruvy | Polarina: I would search first, then just as you described. Then in the details provide as much info as you can. | 05:25 |

| zombie-robot_ | and when i go to network connections>windows network nothing shows up | 05:29 |

| usser | erty, ati dropped support for your card in the newest driver, unfortunately older drivers do not work with jaunty's xorg | 05:33 |
| user01 | erty: I installed debian lenny on my computer that lost support | 05:33 |
| erty | ah crap, what do i do then usser | 05:33 |
| erty | will it run at all? | 05:33 |
| usser | erty, it will, but it'll use opensource driver which has very limited 3d support, that said compiz should work | 05:34 |
| Eloff | aptitude install python wants to remove 16 packages, but install nothing, should I let it do its thing? | 05:34 |
| user01 | erty, you can install debian, it still supports it with the older ati driver i bet | 05:34 |
| erty | I don't know how to use debian, I know ubuntu better, i know its based on debian... but..... | 05:34 |

| linuxguy2009 | I have a question about dpkg. Im able to make bash script files that contain "sudo dpkg -i *.deb" to install a folder of packages.Is there any way to use a wildcard to remove packages from the system or do you have to remove them with there actual names? Im not having any luck with the removal part. | 05:41 |
| paulo----- | not the ISO, the disc | 05:42 |
| fccf-virt | paulo-----: boot it .. in the first options screen you can run verify the disk data | 05:42 |
| Jeruvy | paulo-----: read the link, when you boot the disk you can check also | 05:42 |
| paulo----- | ok thnx | 05:42 |
| Tensai_ | Just set up ssh - using a different port than 22 but my understanding is that wouldn't matter. Other than that haven't changed much. Error I get is that SFTP could not be initialised - not very specific. | 05:42 |
| paulo----- | will come back to post results | 05:43 |
| voss | paulo, what type of computer is this? | 05:43 |

| Eloff | I had a virtual python install, but I'm removing it to upgrade to 2.6. "which python" still points to ~/bin/python, instead of /usr/bin/python - how can I change that? | 05:47 |
| Jeruvy | ixpl: typically you revoke the old ones and create new ones | 05:47 |
| ixpl | right but is there any quick and dirty way? | 05:48 |
| Eloff | sorry, "which python" points correctly to /usr/bin/python, but typing python trys to run the ~/bin/python | 05:49 |
| Jeruvy | ixpl: eh? compared to what slow and clean ;) | 05:49 |

| palin | HI all? question is the a gnome panel applet the just show the icon of the open application? like icon box in xfce-panel. | 05:54 |
| dsdeiz | hi! how come ubuntu doesn't read me ~/.xsession file? :( | 05:54 |
| palin | dsdeiz: my guess would be they do not use the startx-session but gnome-session. Yell if I am wrong :) | 05:55 |
| erty | Q: How can I get usb headsets to be compatible in linux, almost every one I try does not work... | 05:55 |
| kapil | dsdeiz: use custom startup | 05:56 |
| dsdeiz | so if i need to add commands in startup i'll edit /etc/gdm/Xsession ? | 05:56 |
| Magicman1264 | can anyone tell me what I need to do to play video using swfdec? | 05:56 |

| zgmf-x42s | hey can anyone help me with how to get audio to work on netbook remix 9.04?? | 05:57 |
| Tensai_ | Sweet thanks | 05:57 |
| laser28383 | what laptop you running it on? | 05:57 |
| zgmf-x42s | laser28383: me?? | 05:58 |
| laser28383 | yes | 05:58 |
| KillerX | well I just installed ubuntu for my first time and I downloaded my video driver and it says I need tobe a super user so I have to use sudo but how do I and where? | 05:58 |
| zgmf-x42s | laser28383: asus eeepc 1000h | 05:58 |
| laser28383 | i'm running 0'04 netbook on a dell mini 9 and have audio | 05:58 |
| laser28383 | *9.04 | 05:58 |
| will_here | Local desktop install of ubuntu-9.04-server | 05:58 |
| will_here | I cant seem to sftp in from my windows machine | 05:59 |
| zombie-robot_ | the different computers used to show up in the network:/// | 05:59 |
| zombie-robot_ | now i have to look in smb:/// | 05:59 |
| will_here | putty wont connect either | 05:59 |
| will_here | I do have "It works!" when i visit my local ip | 05:59 |
| zgmf-x42s | laser28383: isee. well any advice. oddly enough it works on boot, boot noise, but afterwards, nothing. however, headphone jack works | 05:59 |
| laser28383 | well if you go to volume control try enabling all the options and make sure nothing is muted, then check to see if you are using a hardware mixer or not, and see if that is supported | 06:01 |
| erty | So, why is windows able to support a usb headset but not linux, I understand that they have no sound processor, but in windows even if you don't have a sound card you can use a headset to get sound. How can I get them to work in ubuntu. | 06:01 |

| KillerX | anyone? I know its probably a silly question but I just wanted to get my screen set so I could set up the net and read how to use this thing instead of going back and forth | 06:02 |
| erty | read how to use this thing instead of going back and forth ? | 06:04 |
| rohan | is there *any* way in totem to place the subtitles below the video, in the black strip? | 06:05 |
| erty | rohan if the subtitles are a separate file then no | 06:05 |
| erty | just use vlc, its better and supports basically everything | 06:06 |
| KillerX | ha ha well heres the thing, I cant set u my dsl becuase the screen size is too big, I cant install my video drivers because t says I need to be a super user | 06:06 |
| erty | sudo apt-get install vlc | 06:06 |
| rohan | erty: but even vlc places subtitles overlapping with the video | 06:06 |
| erty | are you installing drivers from terminal? | 06:06 |
| erty | ahhh i see | 06:06 |

| skierkyles | Hey everyone, is there a way to burn netbook remix to an dvd? | 06:07 |
| KillerX | lol I just wanted to get in there so I could read up on how to use this OS instead of going into windows reading then going back | 06:07 |
| erty | netbooks don't have dvd drives 99% of the time | 06:07 |
| rohan | erty: and yes, the subtitles are a separate srt file | 06:07 |
| Keiyentai | hello | 06:07 |
| erty | if the netbook remix downloads as an iso you can probably burn it, but the netbook remix will ONLY work on intel atom processors | 06:07 |
| KillerX | erty by double clicking which is probably totally wrong, I forget but I should use a prgogram to open it or sudo command | 06:08 |
| yeason | I've got ubuntu 9.04 with the nvidia-glx-173 driver and I'm getting really bad horizontal clipping on an external HDTV. Are there some specific settings required to get it to play smoothly, this happens with any media player and movies | 06:08 |
| skierkyles | it downloads as an img, and it seems to only work on memory sticks | 06:08 |
| erty | KillerX: go to system, administration, hardware drivers | 06:08 |
| erty | click one that is recommended and then click activate | 06:08 |

| e0n` | hmm | 06:21 |
| e0n` | Need a hack to pull this off | 06:21 |
| marcvangend | my menu.lst says rootnoverify(hd0,0) and win xp is in /dev/sda1, so that should be OK, right? | 06:22 |
| SandGorgon | snow leopard and win 7 are both pushing hard for 64-bit ... i see a majority of people still installing 32 bit linux - we should have a go 64bit campaign or something | 06:22 |
| e0n` | Got the dell mini 10 pre-loaded ubuntu install which is 8.04 problem is after 8.04 (preloaded) 9.04 is the only one that will install. So what I want to do is clone my install over to my encrypted lvm partition | 06:22 |
| lightbricko | What's the easiest way to print all 100 images in a folder? | 06:22 |
| e0n` | any of you got any recommendations on how to do this? | 06:22 |
| askvictor | SandGorgon: why? | 06:22 |
| e0n` | hmm | 06:23 |
| askvictor | e0n`: I don't quite understand your question | 06:23 |
| e0n` | askvictor: my pre-loaded install/recovery cd doesn't allow me to customize my installation | 06:23 |
| marcvangend | if noob questions like mine belong in another channel, please say so | 06:24 |
| e0n` | and the pre-loaded drivers (no source) don't work well with the publically created/modified ones for later revisions of ubuntu. | 06:24 |
| e0n` | I want to setup this unecrypted install, clone it to an encrypted install | 06:24 |
| askvictor | marcvangend: be patient, someone might answer eventually | 06:24 |
| SandGorgon | there is (predictably) going to be a marketing blitzkreig by ms and apple - touting their brand new 64-bit sweetness .. and for most people who dont know that linux has been 64-bit for a time, it would seem as the next new thing. core2duo is pretty standard these days... so i dont see why NOT push 64 bit linux | 06:24 |
| marcvangend | askvictor: thanks, I am patient, just wanted to know if this is the right place to ask | 06:25 |
| askvictor | marcvangend: yep, but there don't seem to be many gurus around right now :) | 06:25 |
| bluejeans | marcvangend, it *could* be right.. why? are you experiencing problems? | 06:25 |

| bluejeans | marcvangend, http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/debian-linux-help/61274-grub-error-13-a.html | 06:30 |
| mkquist | marcvangend: your * | 06:30 |
| askvictor | might be a little easier | 06:30 |
| KillerX | lstarnes I have no clue what your saying lol when I say noob I mean it ha ha | 06:30 |
| bluejeans | marcvangend, good shows allot for grub error 13 .. check it out | 06:30 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: what are you doing to make the installer.run run? | 06:30 |
| KillerX | lstarnes I leterally just installed it and said wooow I just double clicked it and it said I have to be a super user | 06:31 |
| Jeruvy | lightbricko: ubottu doesn't have factiods for everything, but it can !find and provide !info on nearly all the packages | 06:31 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: is it on your desktop? | 06:31 |
| KillerX | yes | 06:31 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: open a terminal. You should be able to find it under applications > accessories > terminal | 06:31 |
| KillerX | lstarnes ok | 06:32 |
| lightbricko | Jeruvy: oh, so !info looks for packages, but plain !NameOfSomething is a factoid that has been manually written? | 06:32 |
| Jeruvy | bitsbam_: vlc will stream...but that isn't quite what you were asking. Something to consider tho | 06:32 |
| marcvangend | mkquist: http://pastebin.com/d45d4bc61 | 06:32 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: now type this (with the correct case): cd ~/Desktop | 06:32 |
| askvictor | SandGorgon: push 64bit linux where it's the better option, but there are plenty of places where 64 is not necessary/preferable | 06:32 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: after that, type this: sudo ./installer.run | 06:32 |
| webbcm1 | when i change over to ubuntu will my files still be there that were there on vista like my music, document, videos | 06:33 |
| Jeruvy | lightbricko: essentially. !bot will give you a link to the factiods. | 06:33 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: however, if this is for the ATI driver, you should most likely be using the restricted drivers provided by ubuntu | 06:33 |
| lightbricko | Jeruvy: ok, thanks | 06:33 |
| marcvangend | mkquist: and here is my fdisk -lu http://pastebin.com/d6c458b | 06:33 |
| webbcm1 | plz someone tell me | 06:33 |
| SandGorgon | askvictor, i was talking in the context of desktop OS - i dont see why 64-bit is not preferable. | 06:33 |
| e0n` | someone help me find the LPIA 8.04 LPIA | 06:33 |
| Jeruvy | lightbricko: anytime. | 06:33 |
| lstarnes | webbcm1: no | 06:33 |
| askvictor | SandGorgon: why is 64bit preferable? | 06:34 |
| usser | webbcm1, backup, backup, backup | 06:34 |
| KillerX | lstarnes hmm what do you mean restricted drivers because I had to install using basic safemode video | 06:34 |
| askvictor | in a desktop context? | 06:34 |
| webbcm1 | fuck i have like 300 gb of stuff | 06:34 |
| BeatlesFan | hey all | 06:34 |
| mykola | askvictor: more ram :D | 06:34 |
| SandGorgon | askvictor, because that is the native word size of a 64-bit processor - like core2duo | 06:34 |
| marcvangend | bluejeans: I know, google returns a lot of results, like the link you posted, but i didn't find the solution | 06:34 |
| ziroday | webbcm1: as long as you don't overwrite the vista partition, you can still browse all your files | 06:34 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: for me it's in System > Administration > Hardware Drivers | 06:34 |
| Jeruvy | !language > webbcm1 | 06:34 |
| ubottu | webbcm1, please see my private message | 06:34 |
| webbcm1 | aand how does unbuntu run on laptops and 64 bit systems | 06:34 |
| marcvangend | brb, my son just woke up | 06:34 |
| askvictor | mykola: if you need more than 4Gig, sure. if not... | 06:34 |
| KillerX | lstarnes ya when I went to system drivers it didnt have anything | 06:35 |
| ziroday | webbcm1: if you want to run 64bit then you install the AMD64 version of ubuntu | 06:35 |
| webbcm1 | but i run on intel quad core processor on my hp | 06:35 |
| mkquist | marcvangend: have you tried to reinstall grub? | 06:35 |
| mykola | askvictor: hey, you asked ^_^ i use 32 bit myself. I tried 64 bit 6 months ago, but some programs wouldn't work so i switched on the 9.04 release | 06:35 |
| ziroday | webbcm1: please address, and yes that means you have the option to run 32bit or 64bit | 06:36 |
| SandGorgon | webbcm1, i have dell xps laptop and 64bit jaunty works great | 06:36 |
| lightbricko | !popey | 06:36 |
| ubottu | popey is the UK alternative to elvis. | 06:36 |
| SandGorgon | mykola, that's interesting.. which programs | 06:36 |
| mkquist | marcvangend: very simple and i think it might help | 06:36 |
| Jeruvy | webbcm1: nothing uses quads at this stage | 06:36 |
| mykola | SandGorgon: the biggest one i had problems with was boxee | 06:36 |
| KillerX | lstarnes: ok im gonna repeat this back, go into terminal type in cd ~/desktop then sudo ./installer.run now does the installer.run have to be the file name i have on my desktop? | 06:36 |
| webbcm1 | so what ubuntu version would be best for an hp dv5 intel duo core 64 bit 4 gb of ram type latop | 06:36 |
| mykola | SandGorgon: and wine ran slightly differently, some windows emulation stuff was broken where it wasn't before. | 06:37 |
| webbcm1 | yeah typo | 06:37 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: yes | 06:37 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: also, Desktop is capitalized in there | 06:37 |
| mykola | SandGorgon: don't get me wrong, I used it a solid 6 months. It is possible to get a really nice desktop, but it wasn't for me | 06:37 |
| ziroday | webbcm1: you want AMD64 build if you want to use all 4GB of RAM | 06:37 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: it may be sudo sh ./installer.run | 06:37 |
| webbcm1 | ok | 06:37 |
| BeatlesFan | do you actually need a copy of Windows to run Wine? | 06:37 |
| mykola | No | 06:37 |
| lstarnes | BeatlesFan: no | 06:37 |
| askvictor | SandGorgon: x86-64 has two modes: 64 and 32. in 64bit mode, the native size is 64bits. in 32bit, it's 32bits.. If your using 64 bit words when you don't need them you are wasting RAM. | 06:38 |
| BeatlesFan | so Wine is not like a virtual machine, correct? | 06:38 |
| mykola | no | 06:38 |
| askvictor | BeatlesFan: ccorrect | 06:38 |
| webbcm1 | so i shouldnt use ubuntu 9.04 | 06:38 |
| webbcm1 | then | 06:38 |
| mykola | if anything it is a "compatibilty layer" | 06:38 |
| lstarnes | BeatlesFan: no, it provides a binary interface for windows programs | 06:38 |
| ziroday | webbcm1: why not? | 06:38 |
| marcvangend | mkquist: no, I didn't try reinstalling grub, how can I do that? | 06:38 |
| mkquist | marcvangend: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 | 06:38 |
| KillerX | lstarnes: ok wicked im gonna go try it out thanks for all your help | 06:38 |
| webbcm1 | oh that will work | 06:38 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: be warned that this method of installing the drivers is not officially supported | 06:39 |
| BeatlesFan | does anyone know if Blackberry Desktop will run correctly in Wine? | 06:39 |
| mykola | errm... using wine to install drivers is a bad idea >.< | 06:39 |
| ziroday | BeatlesFan: probably not, ask in #winehq and check the appdb | 06:39 |
| webbcm1 | right | 06:39 |
| ziroday | !appdb > BeatlesFan | 06:39 |
| askvictor | BeatlesFan: look in appdb on winehq | 06:39 |
| ubottu | BeatlesFan, please see my private message | 06:39 |
| KillerX | lstarnes: so what does this mean? | 06:39 |
| songer | I had problems with youtube, now I want to install flash player again but in a way that works well | 06:39 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: it means that it is not officially supported | 06:39 |
| Chaorain | Um something happened to my Ubuntu 9.04 machine. Everything is messed up. So I was thinking that if I backup /home/ that should save whats left right? | 06:39 |
| mykola | errm... You need more info than that Chaorain | 06:40 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: envyng might be a better alternative | 06:40 |
| mykola | if you back up /home, then you will save all of your personal stuff... right. | 06:40 |
| webbcm1 | so ubuntu 9.04 is the right build for my laptop | 06:40 |
| KillerX | lstarnes: I think what I need is a good turteol on this he he I just wanted to get my screen size good so I could go on the net and read up | 06:40 |
| ziroday | Chaorain: that would save all your files and most of your settings, yes. Just make sure you also backup the hidden folders in ~ | 06:40 |
| SandGorgon | askvictor, if u see several benchmarks, 64bit linux actually works better for lots of stuff - especially video (http://www.tuxradar.com/content/ubuntu-904-32-bit-vs-64-bit-benchmarks) | 06:40 |
| KillerX | lstarnes: instead of going back in forth from windows to ubuntu | 06:40 |
| mykola | Unless what's wrong is a custom file in home, like ~/.fluxbox or ~/.xinitrc or something... need moar info to be sure | 06:41 |
| SandGorgon | mykola, hmm.. i need to try running wine on 64bit and see | 06:41 |
| KillerX | lstarnes: how Do I envying? I got this file straight from ati website I donno why its not reading | 06:41 |
| ColdSun | hello, has anyone seen this error and possibly know how to correct it? | 06:41 |
| ColdSun | Failed to run gdebi-btk '--non=interactive' '/media/disk/mirage_0.9-1_arm.deb' as user root. Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file. | 06:41 |
| mykola | SandGorgon: there weren't MANY differences... some problems with steam and a few other apps. It wasn't enough to make me quit 64 bit straight up, but i did swap back on the next release | 06:42 |
| DigitalDuck | how do i open mplayer in 16:9 format from the CLI? | 06:42 |
| songer | I need to install flash player in ubuntu 9.04. but in the page it has only for 8.04 | 06:42 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: the drivers on the ATI site aren't designed specifically for ubuntu | 06:42 |
| SandGorgon | mykola, i'm off it for a while.. but i guess i would want WoW to run on wine - but as i have googled , didnt find any issues with 64-bit. did Steam work well on 32 bit ? | 06:43 |
| KillerX | lstarnes: ohhhh I see what you mean now.. Hmm so how would I find the correct drivers? | 06:43 |
| ^Phantom^ | I need help with Driftnet. It installed without problems, but it won't load when I try to launch it. | 06:43 |
| webbcm1 | is ubuntu 9.04 a good build for an hp dv 5 | 06:43 |
| ziroday | webbcm1: yes | 06:44 |
| marcvangend | mkquist: I reinstalled grub, going to try and reboot now, thanks so far | 06:44 |
| mykola | SandGorgon: the last time I tried I actually couldn't do much with steam. but i've had problems with it in 32 bit as well... i think it's just my hardware setup | 06:44 |
| webbcm1 | kool | 06:44 |
| askvictor | SandGorgon: yes, will be faster for some things (video, intense graphics...). But will use more memory for everything. and some things don't work quite right yet. | 06:44 |
| mkquist | marcvangend: g/l | 06:44 |
| webbcm1 | will it carry over my basic programs like media player office | 06:44 |
| webbcm1 | stuff like that | 06:44 |
| mykola | SandGorgon: the main problem i had was with Team Fortress 2 in Wine :) worked in 32 bit and not 64 | 06:44 |
| webbcm1 | or does that all have to be rebooted | 06:44 |
| mykola | but tha's about it | 06:44 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: I'm not exactly sure what to do then. It's been a while since I've messed with the drivers, and that was with nvidia | 06:44 |
| === desti_T2 is now known as desti | ||
| mykola | if you have the space and time | 06:44 |
| mykola | just try it out | 06:44 |
| mykola | if you like it.... keep it | 06:45 |
| KillerX | lstarnes: hmmm I see ok so whats the worst that will happen? right now I can do anything anyways because the screen is ginormous lol | 06:45 |
| mykola | i'm wondering. Can you use a virtual machine to install a 64 bit os guest inside a 32 bit host? just wondering | 06:45 |
| webbcm1 | hmmmm | 06:45 |
| Ambidextrous | i use steam, the games i installed via dvd didnt work, but, the ones i downloaded and installed via steam itself run perfect. i use a 32bit buntu on a 64 processor, i must admit, it gets along better with wine, in my opinion. | 06:45 |
| lstarnes | KillerX: the dricers might not work or you will have problems upgrading to later versions of ubuntu | 06:46 |
| lstarnes | *drivers | 06:46 |
| lstarnes | it might cause crashes, but that's less likely | 06:46 |
| mykola | Ambidextrous: do you own Team fortress 2? :) | 06:46 |
| askvictor | mykola: doubt it | 06:46 |
| KillerX | lstarnes: well a quick google search says that 64bit of ubuntu has problems with my video card and they recommend to switch to 32 bit version | 06:46 |
| mykola | askvictor: yeah... i figured | 06:46 |
| Chaorain | Um something happened to my Ubuntu 9.04 machine. Everything is messed up. So I was thinking that if I backup /home/ that should save whats left right? So I can then rebuild from scratch, right? | 06:46 |
| redorange | why lyx has lots of dependencies .? :D | 06:46 |
| zombie-robot | how come my samba network doesnt show up in places>networkservers? | 06:46 |
| ^Phantom^ | I'd like to get this Driftnet application to work. Am I missing some kind of components that are needed to make it work. When I click the program icon on the applications menu, it doesn't do anything. | 06:47 |
| mykola | Chaorain: basically yes. | 06:47 |
| Ambidextrous | mykola: nah, i only use steam with left for dead, HL2 and Counter strike source, cs:s being the only one of the three i struggle to run well. | 06:47 |
| Chaorain | mykola, there arn't any weird places for storage are there? | 06:47 |
| m5d-sp3 | hello | 06:47 |
| KillerX | lstarnes: The guy said he used Envy to download the latest drivers, but the thing is is my screen is soo big I cant fill out or see the forms to go on the net | 06:47 |
| m5d-sp3 | i have an problem with video playback on jaunty and cannot find any solution via google | 06:47 |
| redorange | install vlc | 06:48 |
| mykola | Ambidextrous: hmm... whenever I run TF2, i get horrible framerates... and I have a nice graphics card and plenty of ram... no clue what's going on | 06:48 |
| zombie-robot | how come my samba network doesnt show up in places>networkservers? | 06:48 |
| m5d-sp3 | redorange, this aboute vlc is to me ? | 06:48 |
| mykola | Chaorain: depends... what do you have? have you installed any other window managers? etc... | 06:48 |
| Fragsworth | What's the name of the apt stuff that I need to install if I want to do C development/compiling | 06:48 |
| ^Phantom^ | actually, i've gotta take my friend home real quick, so i'll ask for help when i return. | 06:48 |
| === ^Phantom^ is now known as ^P|Not_Here | ||
| lstarnes | Fragsworth: build-essential | 06:48 |
| randabis | build-essential? | 06:48 |
| redorange | m5d-sp3, it might solve | 06:48 |
| lstarnes | Fragsworth: individual libraries will have -dev packages | 06:49 |
| mykola | Ambidextrous: it's an nVidia 9800 gt video card and I've got 4 gigs of ram. processor is an intel core 2 quad | 06:49 |
| Chaorain | mykola, mainly I use Firefox, and mythtv (/var/lib/mythtv/ is a seperate partition). | 06:49 |
| m5d-sp3 | redorange, but its slow down in ev ery player and in flash also i got gf9300 build in in my htpc mobo asus p5n7a and e8400 p[roc | 06:49 |
| SandGorgon | askvictor, 4 gb ram is peanuts to buy... the minor increase in RAM usage is hugely offset by the ability to jack up your laptop's performance by throwing 4 gb of RAM at it. for a lot of people getting in the mood to buy a spanking new Win7 or Mac notebook, 60 $ worth of memory and a 64bit ubuntu can turn the tide | 06:49 |
| Fragsworth | Istarnes: thanks, build-essential is what I needed | 06:50 |
| m5d-sp3 | redorange, vlc have an subtitles support ? | 06:50 |
| mykola | Chaorain: you should be fine. whenever i start over I just save my music, pictures, videos and documents and do a fresh install... backing up all of /home will save your configuration files as well though | 06:50 |
| redorange | m5d-sp3, yeap | 06:50 |
| mykola | Chaorain: if you're sure the problem isn't with any programs that are configured from a file in ~/ then you should be fine | 06:50 |
| askvictor | SandGorgon: do you really reckon many people will change to ubuntu purely because they are aware it is 64 bit? | 06:51 |
| redorange | !vlc | 06:51 |
| ubottu | Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Listen, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, Exaile, XMMS2 (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based). Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine - See also !codecs | 06:51 |
| redorange | !vlc | m5d-sp3 | 06:51 |
| ubottu | m5d-sp3: please see above | 06:51 |
| m5d-sp3 | redorange, but is any solution to my problem exept resing from smplayer ? i have my home partition from intrepid and i use it with my gent also can this be a problem ? i have no video problems on intrepid and on gentoo also | 06:51 |
| Chaorain | mykola, I don't know what happened. everything got all messed up at the same time | 06:51 |
| mykola | SandGorgon: heh... to be honest, unless you're running ALOT of stuff, you won't notice the difference between 2 gigs and 4 gigs on ubuntu... i know i didn't -_- | 06:51 |
| mykola | Chaorain: like what? | 06:52 |
| SandGorgon | askvictor, i threw 4 gb of RAM at my parents 3 year old laptop and my dad gave up the idea of buying a new laptop | 06:52 |
| songer | how can I install flash player in ubuntu 9.04 if in the page is only for 8.04? | 06:52 |
| redorange | m5d-sp3, wait for our other experts :) | 06:52 |
| Chaorain | mykola, MythTV is completly dead. all xchat settings poofed same with compiz. And those are just the ones I know about. | 06:53 |
| mykola | songer: just go to the flash website | 06:53 |
| mykola | it's 8.04+ | 06:53 |
| askvictor | SandGorgon: my question stands: do you think that a major promotion of ubuntu's (or linux's) 64 bit capabilities will convince many people to change across? | 06:53 |
| m5d-sp3 | redorange, the problem is that im expert .. sort of and i check almost everything posible and nothing seems to solve this problem i dont even know what is a problem lol | 06:53 |
| songer | is that? | 06:53 |
| Jeruvy | songer: I'd go to like 'youtube' for example, when it asks for flash, follow the request and install. | 06:53 |
| mykola | Chaorain: you should be fine backing up /home | 06:53 |
| Ambidextrous | Mykola: one of the things i love steam for is the fact you can add commands to a game startup via steam itself, youll find tweaks all over the place, i only use a 8600gt and it runs anything in the orange box just fine, sometimes with some tweaking, sometimes not, HL2 took some messing around with, but its just great right now. | 06:53 |
| songer | yes | 06:54 |
| Chaorain | mykola, k thanks | 06:54 |
| mykola | Ambidextrous: hehe... i like that too. used it on my old box to get it working by forcing a lower directx | 06:54 |
| askvictor | SandGorgon: I have no doubt that 64bit is better in modern computers. But your original thought was about pushing it as a major reason to change. I think it's a minor issue compared to other reasons to change. | 06:54 |
| redorange | !xserver | 06:54 |
| SandGorgon | askvictor, yes... already you see engadget and gizmodo awash in orgasmic fervor for snow leopard's 64 bit kernel and how Jobs was the messiah in getting the world to move to 64-bit. How do you answer that? with a push for 64 bit linux that is every bit as good as OSX | 06:54 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about xserver | 06:54 |
| redorange | osx is based on linux? | 06:55 |
| lstarnes | redorange: no | 06:55 |
| mykola | OSX uses apples darwin | 06:55 |
| mykola | which is bsd based iirc | 06:55 |
| mykola | not linux | 06:55 |
| Jeruvy | askvictor: it's minor if you think so, but not everyone thinks so :) | 06:55 |
| Jeruvy | !ot ! mykola | 06:55 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ot ! mykola | 06:55 |
| Jeruvy | !ot mykola | 06:56 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ot mykola | 06:56 |
| lstarnes | redorange: it's unix-based, but not linux-based | 06:56 |
| Jeruvy | !ot | mykola | 06:56 |
| ubottu | mykola: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 06:56 |
| Ambidextrous | mykola: in that case, im unsure why TF aint running so well for you, one of the commands i used on HL2 was -heapsize 'amount of ram'. im no pro, but from what i understand, it forces an higher amount of ram usage, it did give me a good increase, some messing around with those commands, im sure youll find someting TF gets along with. | 06:56 |
| redorange | !osx | 06:56 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about osx | 06:56 |
| mykola | Ambidextrous: hmm... i'll try that | 06:57 |
| Ambidextrous | isnt osx more BSD orientated? | 06:57 |
| rameshwo | how to know my sound card is installed or not ???? | 06:57 |
| Ambidextrous | suppose its all unix, tho | 06:57 |
| mykola | Ambidextrous: aye... but apparently we ain't supposed to talk about it here ;) | 06:57 |
| Jeruvy | !ot | Ambidextrous | 06:57 |
| ubottu | Ambidextrous: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 06:57 |
| askvictor | SandGorgon: mac fanbois aren't going to listen to anything that isn't about mac. Most windows users don't even know what an OS is, let alone that there are 64bit and 32bit OSes. There's a very small portion of users that might know enough about computers but not enough about linux that such a push might sway, but I think there are better avenues to promote ubuntu (64bit or otherwise) | 06:58 |
| mykola | Jeruvy, knock it off :P | 06:58 |
| natchow | what's the last version of osx? | 06:58 |
| mykola | ok... now you can ot him | 06:58 |
| Ab3L | ciao | 06:58 |
| Jeruvy | mykola: I'll knock you off :P | 06:58 |
| natchow | dang spanish | 06:58 |

| Ab3L | how can i know if i have AIGLX? | 06:58 |
| Jeruvy | mykola: get on topic | 06:59 |
| natchow | are you using a ati card? | 06:59 |
| Ab3L | yes i am | 06:59 |
| askvictor | SandGorgon: anyways, we'll have to agree to disagree :) | 06:59 |
| mykola | Jeruvy: I've been on topic with like 3 people! was just mentioning stuff i know about osx in passing heh. :) | 06:59 |
| SandGorgon | askvictor, correct :) | 07:00 |
| natchow | lol, you are standing on mines | 07:00 |
| askvictor | SandGorgon: either that or fistycuffs | 07:00 |
| Jeruvy | mykola: I'm not asking twice. | 07:00 |
| Ab3L | ATI Technologies Inc RV516 XT Radeon X1600 Series | 07:00 |
| SandGorgon | askvictor, :) | 07:00 |

| askvictor | natchow: it's an abusive one ;) | 07:01 |
| usser | natchow, about the only thing in common between them is gnu utilities | 07:01 |
| SandGorgon | natchow, a lot of the same programs that u use on linux shell/comandline - works on mac | 07:01 |
| mykola | natchow. there is not really a relationship... the alot of the gnu stuff is the same | 07:01 |
| * natchow smelt apple's salesmen | 07:02 | |
| redorange | !janitor | 07:02 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about janitor | 07:02 |
| usser | although i dont think osx uses gnu stuff, more likely bsd versions | 07:02 |

| theyeti | Okay so this one has me stumped. I have firefox 3.0 and the firefox 3.5 beta both installed. Flash works perfectly fine in the 3.5 beta but 3.0 doesn't recognize that I have the plugin installed. Anyone have any idea why? | 07:03 |
| mykola | tbh, ubuntu's is more useful i think | 07:03 |
| bakominfo | erhyl | 07:03 |
| mykola | plus ubuntus package manager kicks rocks... while mac is non existent | 07:03 |
| bakominfo | sinjai | 07:03 |
| usser | theyeti, are you on a 64 bit system? | 07:03 |
| theyeti | yea | 07:03 |
| bakominfo | erhylanwar@yahoo.co.id | 07:03 |
| jezi22_ | what application can i use for compile c++ in ubuntu? | 07:03 |
| lstarnes | jezi22_: g++ | 07:04 |
| mykola | gcc :D | 07:04 |
| jezi22_ | for compiling* | 07:04 |
| usser | theyeti, well there's your answer, 3.5 is 32 bit while your 3.0 is 64, how did you install flash plugin? | 07:04 |
| jezi22_ | the name of application is g++? it is in the repo? | 07:04 |
| lstarnes | jezi22_: there are several graphical IDEs that can interface with g++ | 07:04 |
| theyeti | usser: through synaptic. Installed the flashplugin-installer package. | 07:04 |
| usser | jezi22_, just install build-essential, sudo apt-get install build-essential | 07:04 |
| usser | theyeti, and it works in your 3.5 but not in 3.0? | 07:05 |
| lstarnes | jezi22_: build-essential will also install g++, gcc, and some development files needed for basic compiling | 07:05 |
| mykola | yeah... build essential will give you a compiler and allow you to compile source packages with ./configure make make install | 07:05 |
| theyeti | usser: Yea | 07:05 |
| jezi22_ | ./configure?? | 07:05 |
| SandGorgon | theyeti, i suggest you download flash player 10 linux 64 bit, copy it to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and make sure u use 64 bit firefox (3.0 or 3.5) | 07:05 |
| mykola | jezi22: don't worry about that for now ;) | 07:05 |
| RHorse | theyeti have the default plugin folders changed? | 07:05 |
| jezi22_ | i have already gcc and g++.. | 07:06 |
| theyeti | no they haven't changed | 07:06 |
| Jeruvy | !compile | jezi22_ | 07:06 |
| ubottu | jezi22_: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 07:06 |
| usser | theyeti, hm, i cant think of a way to share the plugin between different version of firefox ie 64 and 32 bit | 07:06 |
| mykola | so to compile your code, type g++ -(options) the name of your code | 07:06 |
| keshav | where can i find the source for earliest version of linux, 0.01? | 07:06 |
| jezi22_ | i already installed build essential | 07:06 |
| jezi22_ | XD | 07:06 |
| mykola | a good one is -o so you can give an output file instead of standard ./a.out | 07:06 |
| Jeruvy | usser: the profile is the same, so its redundant | 07:06 |
| RHorse | theyeti also make sure the plugins are in /home/.mozilla/plugins as well | 07:07 |
| theyeti | usser: I would have thought that the synaptic package would have installed the 64 bit flash plugin and if anything the 3.5 firefox wouldn't recognize that it was installed | 07:07 |
| SunnyD | Anyone needs a Demonoid invite ? | 07:07 |
| usser | theyeti, the 64 bit plugin is not released yet | 07:07 |

| usser | theyeti, they use nspluginwrapper to make 32 bit one work | 07:07 |
| Jeruvy | usser: yes it it | 07:07 |
| jezi22_ | SunnyD are you from demonoid?? | 07:07 |
| mykola | SunnyD: this place is for talking about ubuntu | 07:07 |
| lstarnes | Jeruvy: but it's a beta | 07:07 |

| Jeruvy | lstarnes: it works | 07:07 |
| Gargorh | SunnyD, yeah, I'd like one invite | 07:08 |
| SunnyD | jezi22_: mykola: i have an invite lingering, i just want to give it, that's all | 07:08 |
| SunnyD | Gargorh: given | 07:08 |
| Gargorh | may I PM you? | 07:08 |
| usser | theyeti, personally i just switched to 64 bit opera 10 with a 64 bit plugin, works fine so far | 07:08 |
| SunnyD | Gargorh: yes | 07:08 |
| Jeruvy | usser: I feelthat way about all adobe crap :) but like I said it is available, and it does work. | 07:08 |
| mykola | SunnyD: heh... i haven't used demonoid in a while. I'm just telling you because there's another grumpy person here who shouts at you for being off topic :P | 07:08 |
| SunnyD | mykola: cool | 07:09 |
| Ab3L | a question. a "cut off version" of a radeon card is like a "bullshit version"? | 07:09 |
| usser | Jeruvy, hehe, man talk about crap, i dont know if i like the fact that they now commited to releasing security patches regularly, im getting tired of installing 200mb updates to cs4 every other week | 07:09 |
| mykola | SunnyD: btw. I've been seeding for a while and demonoid has not yet updated my ratio... do you think it doesn't like transmission? | 07:10 |

| mykola | Does anyone know if xorg.conf files are transmissible between distros? I'm trying to set up a sorcerer box right now and im having a helluva time with xorg.conf. can i just install ubuntu, use that generated file, back it up, and give it to sorcerer? | 07:12 |
| Ab3L | usser: it could be "like AIGLX not supported"? | 07:12 |
| dotblank | does the ubuntu live cd copy the contents of casper/filesystem.squashfs (contents) to the new install base directly? or does it mount the filesystem in loopback and copies specific files? | 07:12 |
| lstarnes | mykola: it's mote dependent on the version of Xorg and what modules/drivers are available | 07:12 |
| AlbertoP | hello, quite new to ubuntu. Where can I find science applications? | 07:12 |
| mykola | lstarnes: yeah... i suppose ubuntu preloads a bunch of different modules | 07:13 |
| theyeti | meh, not that big of a deal to just switch to the firefox beta when I want to play a flash game or something. was just confusing me why it didn't work. thanks for the help guys | 07:13 |

| noric | bigfish: terminal: sudo echo "deb http://deb.playonlinux.com/ intrepid main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list | 07:35 |
| usser | Ab3L, about the only thing i can suggest is getting the latest drivers for your card from ati.com and installing it manually, but thats not the exercise for a beginner | 07:35 |
| noric | bigfish: terminal: sudo apt-get update | 07:35 |
| noric | bigfish: terminal: sudo aptitude install playonlinux | 07:35 |
| bigfish | it said permission denied.. | 07:35 |
| Ab3L | usser: do you mean the proprietary driver? not the opensource driver? | 07:36 |
| noric | yes you need to use sudo | 07:36 |
| usser | Ab3L, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI scroll down to install from ati.com section | 07:36 |
| noric | and type in your correct password | 07:36 |
| mykola | bigfish: are you using sudo? | 07:36 |
| raylu | noric: no, you're using > | 07:36 |
| usser | Ab3L, yea fglrx | 07:36 |
| raylu | noric: the echo has root privileges, > does not | 07:36 |
| noric | ohhh yea thanks | 07:36 |
| bigfish | ummm... | 07:36 |
| noric | how do you give the pipe root privs | 07:36 |
| raylu | noric: i'd suggest sudo su -c "echo 'deb http://deb.playonlinux.com/ intrepid main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list" | 07:36 |
| usser | noric, use tee | 07:37 |
| mykola | bigfish: if you are using sudo, are you using a modern file system? :D if you're running ubuntu on a fat32 filesystem then you will never have permissions | 07:37 |
| lstarnes | noric: try echo "deb http://deb.playonlinux.com/ intrepid main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list | 07:37 |
| noric | raylu: nod gonna keep it simple | 07:37 |
| mykola | figured that out the hard way tying to copy a large file over to my fat32 usb drive :P | 07:37 |
| raylu | mykola: uh...? that's not the issue here | 07:37 |
| bigfish | lol | 07:37 |
| noric | bigfish: terminal: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list | 07:37 |
| mykola | raylu: yeah. I figured it was sudo but that confused me for the longest time when it happened to me | 07:37 |
| noric | bigfish: a window like notepad opens. paste this in it: deb http://deb.playonlinux.com/ intrepid main | 07:37 |
| noric | bigfish: save it, quit | 07:38 |
| noric | bigfish: then terminal: sudo apt-get update; sudo aptitude install playonlinux | 07:38 |
| bigfish | paste it at the end or begining of the file? | 07:38 |
| noric | what does the file have in it right now? | 07:38 |
| noric | paste pls | 07:38 |
| charly | hello, i want to set up a mirror repository of http://mark.tester.be on my local server, can anybody tell me how to do that? | 07:38 |

| ^Phantom^ | would the nintendo wifi usb connector work on ubuntu? | 07:40 |
| bigfish | ok done | 07:40 |
| noric | p1gmale0n: system -> preferences -> screen resolution | 07:41 |

| charly | ? | 07:41 |
| p1gmale0n | noric: ubuntu not installed yet.. need change resolution for INSTALLing.. how i can do it?? | 07:42 |
| ^Phantom^ | heh i'll just plug it in and find out | 07:42 |
| ^Phantom^ | after i find it | 07:42 |
| mykola | p1gmale0n: you can do that using the live cd environment | 07:42 |
| mykola | p1gmale0n: if you choose the top option in the live cd boot menu, you can still install. it just loads a full desktop first | 07:43 |
| noric | p1gmale0n: what mykola said. Ubuntu has a "Try Ubuntu Without Changing my Computer" option. Pick that. | 07:43 |
| noric | p1gmale0n: once it boots, go to system -> preferences -> screen resolution | 07:44 |
| p1gmale0n | mykola: ooh.. i'm stupid =))) thx!) | 07:44 |
| noric | switch it, then there should be an "Install" icon on the desktop | 07:44 |
| dotblank | hmm I have an error that when I am trying to upgrade hal it gives errors about /proc/modules not existing | 07:44 |

| bigfish | should i update ubuntu to 9.04 ?? | 07:44 |
| mykola | noric, what is the difference between what you did and changing /etc/apt/sources.list? | 07:44 |
| noric | mykola: just that i was trying to deviate as little from his path as possible | 07:44 |
| noric | mykola: and I don't know much about where apt sources its sources from | 07:45 |
| mykola | noric, i see. so is there any difference between the two? | 07:45 |
| mykola | noric, ah... k | 07:45 |
| noric | it probably loads /etc/apt/*.list | 07:45 |
| noric | I recently discovered org-mode for emacs | 07:46 |
| noric | sooo awesome | 07:46 |
| bigfish | wtf is that? | 07:46 |
| noric | I use cron scripts and git repositories to synchronized my org files | 07:46 |
| noric | uh | 07:46 |
| noric | it's sort like google calendar, or microsoft outlook, but on crack | 07:46 |
| bigfish | lol | 07:46 |
| noric | =D | 07:46 |
| Jeruvy | noric: ah, well that clears that up ;) | 07:47 |
| mykola | actually. I'm looking at mine right now. sources.list has all of your repos, and sources.list.d contains them all as separate text files. i'm pretty sure that sources.list.d overrides the former and can be used to easily add repos by copying text files | 07:47 |
| noric | cool | 07:47 |

| mykola | Joshua_Mayer: you might want to use the alternate install disk | 07:49 |
| Joshua_Mayer | When I do that, it says error reading boot cd. | 07:49 |
| Jeruvy | Joshua_Mayer: what noric said. | 07:49 |
| Joshua_Mayer | When I do that, it says error reading boot cd. | 07:49 |
| noric | Joshua_Mayer: mm so it should be unsurprising that the install fails. I would try a new CD. | 07:49 |
| Mx | I am stuck people!, a little help will be appreciated | 07:49 |
| Jeruvy | Joshua_Mayer: then the disc is no good, try again. | 07:49 |

| Jeruvy | Joshua_Mayer: did you verify the download before burning? | 07:51 |

| Paddy_EIRE | progesterone: probably a little better.. although that is a really low amount if ram | 08:09 |
| Paddy_EIRE | *of | 08:09 |
| mykola | progesterone: xubuntu would be quicker... using an even lighter window manager would be even quicker | 08:10 |
| stealth- | progesterone: try using fluxbox | 08:10 |
| progesterone | mykola lighter window manager? ... what do you mean by that? | 08:10 |
| mykola | progesterone: if you choose fluxbox, be prepared for a learning curve :D it's good tho, i love fluxbox | 08:10 |
| stealth- | progesterone: something like fluxbox | 08:10 |
| grawity | progesterone: Xubuntu (with Xfce) works fine on my 256 MB laptop. (In fact, GNOME works fine too) | 08:10 |
| mykola | progesterone: window managers control the way your desktop looks and feels. some use heavy graphics effects and some are lighter | 08:11 |
| mykola | enlightenment 17 is quite nice too :) | 08:11 |
| stealth- | when JTR is running in incremental mode, what does the "guesses: 1" statement mean? | 08:11 |
| mykola | progesterone: for instance, fluxbox uses quite fewer system resources than gnome does, but you won't have your shiny desktop effects and you will have to learn to edit some config files | 08:12 |
| mykola | progesterone: still... fluxbox can look quite nice | 08:12 |
| mykola | icewm is also a popular choice | 08:13 |
| mykola | tho to be honest, with 256 ram, i think xfce (xubuntu) would be your easiest choice | 08:13 |
| myself | hey does anyone remember if Ktorrent is the torrent client that makes a bunch of new folders with archive information in them about the torrents | 08:14 |
| progesterone | mykola Although I'm IT guy, I am newbie in linux. So what would you recommend for my 256MB RAM PC? | 08:14 |
| mykola | go for xfce :D | 08:14 |
| maarten__ | progrestone : xubuntu | 08:14 |
| mykola | xubuntu | 08:14 |
| grawity | progesterone: Xfce (Xubuntu). | 08:14 |

| mykola | progesterone: yeah... having a slow internet connection using ubuntu kind of kills you? | 08:18 |
| mykola | are you on dial up? | 08:18 |

| mykola | progesterone: ah... ok then. what's your average download rate? | 08:19 |
| ^Phantom^ | i tried sudo installing it but it said it couldn't find package information for it | 08:19 |
| mykola | progesterone: once you get the system set up, you shouldn't have to worry too much about downloading alot of stuff at adsl speeds | 08:19 |
| progesterone | mykola 512MB | 08:19 |
| grawity | ^Phantom^: mono-develop is probably totally not what you want. | 08:19 |
| mykola | errm... kb? | 08:19 |
| mykola | if you're at 512 kb/s that's actually a pretty modest speed... why are you complaining about slow internet | 08:20 |

| progesterone | mykola As I said it's ok on Window. | 08:24 |
| mykola | so.. | 08:24 |
| grawity | rosenth: "Digital Rights Management" - it encrypts the file to make sure you couldn't send it to a friend or so. | 08:24 |
| mykola | 512 Mb/s = 64 MB/s | 08:24 |
| mykola | which is huge | 08:24 |
| mykola | like... stupidly large | 08:24 |
| progesterone | mykola The problem is on Ubuntu. On some forums, some say IPv6 issue, but some also say DNS issue. | 08:25 |

| mykola | as in... downloads a gig in 16 seconds | 08:25 |
| rosenth | SiDi: you can byptass it. | 08:25 |
| grawity | mykola: And didn't he say 512 kb/s? | 08:25 |
| mykola | grawity: he changed it to Mb/s | 08:25 |
| grawity | Ah | 08:25 |
| c0r3 | hi all | 08:26 |
| mykola | anyway... i've always found my internet to be faster on any linux than it is in windows | 08:26 |
| mykola | don't know how i can help progesterone | 08:26 |
| ^Phantom^ | what the flip | 08:27 |
| ^Phantom^ | it won't create "PhantomNet" | 08:28 |
| bigfish | anybody got 3dsmax 2008 running on ubuntu? | 08:28 |
| Nana | join debian | 08:29 |
| ^Phantom^ | instead, it tries to connect to it. i don't want to connect to it, i want to CREATE it >_> | 08:29 |
| mykola | bigfish: wine says no :( | 08:29 |
| progesterone | mykola Sorry. I was just expressing my disappointment. Thanks for your suggestion for Xubuntu. | 08:29 |
| bigfish | yer, i saw that :( | 08:29 |
| mykola | progesterone: sorry i couldn't help you :( try xubuntu, maybe your browser is slow because the wm is taking too many resources? | 08:29 |
| gum76 | !xubuntu | 08:29 |

| progesterone | rob_p Internet connection is terriblly slow in Ubuntu. | 08:30 |
| mykola | progesterone: are you in ubuntu right now? | 08:31 |
| c0r3 | how do i change my screen resolution in 8.10 from 800 to 1200 | 08:31 |
| progesterone | mykola Now, I'm chatting on XP. | 08:31 |
| mykola | progesterone, hmm... next time you try to install software in ubuntu, look at the download speed | 08:31 |
| mykola | progesterone, if that is high, then you have system resource problems... if it is slow then you have connection problems i think | 08:32 |
| mykola | progesterone: for the former, switching to xfce might fix it | 08:32 |
| mykola | progesterone: dunno about the latter | 08:32 |
| rob_p | progesterone, Slow as in slow data transfers throughout, or slow as in slow to respond but once it responds, it's fast? | 08:32 |

| geochelone | it's 3.35pm here | 08:36 |
| euro-linux | #ubuntu.de | 08:36 |
| ^Phantom^ | so i guess creating a soft ap can't be done then | 08:36 |
| geochelone | exactly the other side of the globe i guess lol | 08:36 |
| rob_p | progesterone, In order for the computer to communicate, it has to lookup IPs from names (DNS). Like if you ping google.com, first it looks up google.com's IP address. Does that lookup take a long time? | 08:37 |
| ^Phantom^ | i'll ask again: what the fuck do i need to create a Soft AP so that I can connect a device to the internet through it? | 08:38 |
| Boohbah | rob_p: remember google.com is likely cached by the local resolver | 08:38 |
| progesterone | rob_p What should I try/do to answer your question? | 08:38 |
| rob_p | progesterone, Use a utility like dig to lookup random names and see how long it takes to resolve them. | 08:39 |
| ^Phantom^ | google ain't doing me any good | 08:39 |
| rob_p | Boohbah, Yeah. That was just an example. But good to keep in mind. | 08:39 |

| JRMLL | Anyone know of software that would allow me to send someone a 8GB dvd which when booted from would offer the recipient a *choice* of wiping their hdd and installing a new hdd image from the DVD? i.e. the only user intervention should be to say yes or no to "do you want your hdd wiped and hdd image Acme installed?" ? | 08:40 |
| rob_p | progesterone, That's not what I'm asking. | 08:40 |

| thomast | Hilikus - dropbox has a Linux client - does it not work for you? | 08:41 |
| rob_p | progesterone, ...and also, try resolving other domains. | 08:41 |
| Hilikus | no, i don't mean i client to use dropbox, i want to host a dropbox-like server in my own ubuntu server | 08:41 |
| rob_p | progesterone, At the command prompt, type, "dig cnn.com" and see how long it takes to get the answer back. | 08:41 |
| ^Phantom^ | so i can connect my nintendo dsi to it and capture images i view in the webbrowser on it | 08:42 |
| thomast | so - now that I can get Ubuntu running and on the Internet, how do I get my screen resolution better than 800x600? | 08:42 |
| c4rl | Hello, I have a slight problem: laptop speakers stay on after I plug in my headphones. I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 64-bit (but I had the same problem on 32-bit). Any help on that please? | 08:42 |
| Hilikus | is there something like that? to store and keep a file in sync from different platforms and storing the actual data in ubuntu | 08:42 |
| thomast | ah - Hilikus -sorry, didn't understand | 08:42 |
| rob_p | progesterone, After you have done that for several random domains, you will have a feel for how long it's taking your resolver to resolve names. | 08:42 |

| jjibn | <^phanto^>u could set up in the OS to be on internet directly | 08:44 |

| navetz | if something is liscensed as GPL that means you can't sell it but you can sell the installation and setup of the software correct? | 08:46 |

| === tommy is now known as Guest37077 | ||
| usser | navetz, you can sell the software itself, provided you give people the source code | 08:47 |
| WIGGMPk | blbrown: is a Virtual Machine an option for you?? | 08:47 |
| blbrown | WIGGMPk, no | 08:47 |
| progesterone | rob_p And then | 08:47 |
| rob_p | progesterone, For instance, use FTP and get some large file from a well-connected server. Something like a 20MB file will give you an idea of how fast your connection is. | 08:47 |
| stealth- | navetz: you can sell it, but you have to provide the source code, so yes you can | 08:47 |
| jjibn | <^phanto^>do u mean u need look at the pic from the NDSL on ur pc directly? | 08:47 |
| WIGGMPk | blbrown: that sucks... the LiveCD has gparted on it and it will be able to resize the current partitions | 08:48 |

| ^Phantom^ | jjibn: i want to create a soft AP with this second wireless card, so that i can connect the DSi to the internet with that access point, and capture the data i view | 08:50 |
| aaronvarghese | thank you wiggmpk | 08:50 |
| rob_p | progesterone, But first, you need to see if raw data transfers are fast. | 08:50 |

| progesterone | rob_p Broadband 512kb/s | 08:57 |
| rob_p | progesterone, I don't run FTP services but you can test an http transfer with wget. It will list the running average download speed while you are getting a file. I've made a 20MB file on my server if you want to give it a try. | 08:59 |
| chachin | i wish i could make my own eggbot :P | 09:00 |

| FeasibilityStudy | jahid you might need xine installed | 09:10 |

| progesterone | rob_p It says about 20K/s. I'm downloading Xubuntu from Ubuntu in parallel. | 09:10 |
| iceroot | myself: only reinstall | 09:10 |
| FeasibilityStudy | jahid from within amark it should say what the backend is | 09:10 |
| myself | why | 09:10 |
| SiDi | mohan_: if the media you wanna mount is a ntfs disk, add "-t ntfs-3g" in the command. if its an .iso file, add "-t iso9660 -o loop" | 09:10 |
| iceroot | myself: because you can not update a system to 64bit | 09:11 |
| myself | i see | 09:11 |
| ^Phantom^ | why do i keep ending up with two connections to our router? | 09:11 |
| myself | someone told me that i should run 32 bit cause it was more stable and stuff | 09:11 |
| FeasibilityStudy | myself they are wrong. Use 64 bit | 09:11 |
| iceroot | myself: how much ram? | 09:11 |
| sam\ | idd they are wrong | 09:11 |
| myself | 2 gigs | 09:11 |
| magnetron | ^Phantom^: oh. i'd disable that. the method for setting your card in infrastructure mode (AP) varies alot between different drivers. you'll have to use commands that are specific for your wifi card and driver. | 09:11 |
| iceroot | myself: then use 32bit | 09:11 |
| SiDi | myself: 32 and 64 bits are kind of the same on ubuntu. and 32bits apps work on 64bit arch | 09:11 |
| rob_p | progesterone, Well, you have to do it with no other downloads in progress to get accurate results... | 09:12 |
| joot | myself: I ran a 64 bit computer on a 32 bit ubuntu without too many problem that I recall | 09:12 |
| iceroot | myself: 64bit makes only sense with 4gb ram and more | 09:12 |
| myself | here's a question--if i download ubuntu 64 bit and install it, will i be able to install it over my current ubuntu install with no problems? or what exactly do i do | 09:12 |
| mds1 | hi all. I am using Ubuntu 8.10 w/ Gnome. I also use some KDE apps like okular and kontact. Some time ago all the menus form the kde apps disappeared. I tried to reconfigure the apps /wo success. Which packages are responsible for the creation of the kde-app menus? What could I try to fix the problem? | 09:12 |
| iceroot | myself: as is told you, reinstall | 09:12 |
| FeasibilityStudy | myself yes it will be no problem. Just use your current partition layout | 09:12 |
| myself | but my question feasbilitystudy, is what will happen to my old ubuntu install | 09:13 |
| iceroot | myself: you can not update 32bit to 64bit system | 09:13 |
| myself | do i have to delete it? | 09:13 |
| FeasibilityStudy | myself it will be gone | 09:13 |
| magnetron | ^Phantom^: for instance, i have an Atheros card. most Atheros cards uses the madwifi driver, so i'd use madwifi-tools to create a virtual network card in Infrastructure mode | 09:13 |
| myself | so i have to format my drive? | 09:13 |
| jahid | FeasibilityStudy: it does not say anything about the xine. but I have installed systemtools, and there it shows xine as preferred selection | 09:13 |
| FeasibilityStudy | myself no you dont have to delete it. Just let the new Ubuntu install over it | 09:13 |
| myself | oh so basically installing over it is like an upgrade anyway | 09:13 |
| myself | but wait, will my programs be gone, or what? | 09:13 |
| sam\ | but your deleting your old ubuntu first | 09:13 |
| FeasibilityStudy | myself no it will be a new install. | 09:13 |
| iceroot | myself: no! | 09:13 |
| sam\ | so its not myself :p | 09:14 |
| iceroot | myself: you have to reinstall! | 09:14 |
| FeasibilityStudy | myself just like installing Ubuntu over Windows | 09:14 |
| === tommy is now known as Guest28419 | ||
| iceroot | myself: reinstall = overwriting old system | 09:14 |
| myself | wait so what will happen to my old programs | 09:14 |
| rob_p | progesterone, But if your Xubuntu download is 40 or 50Kb/sec while the testfile download was at 20Kb/sec., then I'd say you are achieving your allocated download speed from your ISP. | 09:14 |
| iceroot | myself: just use 32bit system with your 2gb ram | 09:14 |
| myself | yeah but im just curious maybe ill get more ram | 09:14 |
| rob_p | progesterone, ...assuming a 512kbps connection from them... | 09:15 |
| FeasibilityStudy | jahid what kind of file are you trying to play in amarok? | 09:15 |
| jahid | anyone have any suggestion about amarok is not playing any sound, while my xine is installed. and other audio devices play sounds nice? | 09:15 |
| myself | will there be a bunch of broken packages and stuff if i reinstall 64 bit over 32 bit | 09:15 |
| jahid | FeasibilityStudy: its their online collection | 09:15 |
| FeasibilityStudy | jahid, ah. OK | 09:15 |
| jahid | FeasibilityStudy: it shows that its playing, but no sound coming out | 09:15 |
| iceroot | myself: there are some problems with 64bit, drivers, flash | 09:15 |
| myself | i dont understand how everything will still work i mean, you say i cant upgrade, but installing it over is basically an upgrade if everything still works | 09:15 |
| myself | hmm | 09:15 |
| myself | i see | 09:15 |
| iceroot | myself: .... reinstall = deleting old system and installing a new one.... | 09:16 |
| myself | what does "deleting" mean | 09:16 |
| iceroot | myself: so its no update | 09:16 |
| myself | what would be deleted | 09:16 |
| iceroot | myself: deleting, losing all data, format and so on | 09:16 |
| magnetron | myself: the 32-bit install would be deleted | 09:16 |
| myself | okay so it is a format | 09:16 |
| magnetron | yes | 09:16 |

| myself | would a 32 bit ubuntu and a 64 bit ubuntu like i have with just 2 gigs of ram be the same speed then? | 09:21 |
| rob_p | Ademan, For future reference, you can do, "apt-cache search <string>" at the command prompt for a list of packages in the repos that contain <string>. | 09:21 |
| jahid | FeasibilityStudy: , it says phonon already installed, and didnt find "lib-xine1" | 09:21 |
| iceroot | myself: yes same speed | 09:21 |
| myself | i see | 09:21 |
| myself | cool | 09:21 |
| rob_p | Ademan, quick and easy! | 09:21 |
| Ademan | rob_p: indeed, that's what i just did | 09:21 |
| FeasibilityStudy | jahid, im sorry. Try libxine1 | 09:21 |
| Ademan | just got lazy this time :-p | 09:21 |
| iceroot | myself: so just stay with 32bit | 09:21 |
| jahid | FeasibilityStudy: , that is already installed too | 09:22 |
| myself | yeah i will, but i guess if i get a bunch more ram i'll get 64 | 09:22 |
| FeasibilityStudy | jahid how about libxine1-gnome | 09:22 |
| iceroot | myself: just test your system with a 64bit live-system | 09:23 |
| koolhead17 | hi all | 09:23 |
| rob_p | Ademan, Did you know it takes more effort to ask the question in here than to just apt-cache search? Sucks to work so hard to be lazy! :-) | 09:23 |

| koolhead17 | i want to know more about wubi installer | 09:24 |
| iceroot | !wubi | koolhead17 | 09:24 |
| ubottu | koolhead17: Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. | 09:24 |
| jahid | FeasibilityStudy: , installed, but no sound :/ | 09:24 |
| wildc4rd | is there a list of compatible hardware anywhere, I need a good soundcard for a media centre, and had trouble with the X-Fi on my main PC | 09:25 |
| koolhead17 | iceroot: i am looking forward to move who office into tux from winblows | 09:25 |
| e0n` | hmm does the ubuntu live cd actually contain the alternate text based curses interface as well? | 09:25 |
| iceroot | koolhead17: what? | 09:25 |
| koolhead17 | iceroot: looking forward to move my company into linux | 09:26 |
| iceroot | e0n`: only the alternate-cd imo | 09:26 |
| koolhead17 | but all used windows | 09:26 |
| jahid | this is so boring, it was working with ubuntu's earlier version :s | 09:26 |
| e0n` | iceroot: figured as much | 09:26 |
| koolhead17 | so kindaa looking for simple easy method to get it done with ease | 09:26 |
| FeasibilityStudy | jahid sudo apt-get remove phonon-backend-gstreamer | 09:26 |
| koolhead17 | :P | 09:26 |
| iceroot | koolhead17: maybe you should look befire if for all windows-appications you need, if there is a program for linux | 09:27 |
| iceroot | koolhead17: i was never using wubi so i dont know if it is a good one | 09:27 |
| FeasibilityStudy | jahid once thats done, then do this: sudo apt-get install phonon-backend-xine | 09:27 |
| FeasibilityStudy | jahid then close and restart amarok. If that doesnt do it, I am at a loss. | 09:28 |
| jahid | FeasibilityStudy: I only have phonon-backend-xine installed, i dont have phonon-backend-gstreamer | 09:28 |
| koolhead17 | iceroot: i want them to feel linux so that they finally leave windows | 09:28 |
| koolhead17 | hehe | 09:28 |
| jahid | FeasibilityStudy: I did not have that gsstreamer installed, so i belive backend-xine was already thr and running | 09:29 |
| iceroot | koolhead17: good idea :) | 09:29 |
| H4ck3rx | i've lost my /boot partition. please help me re-generate it | 09:30 |
| koolhead17 | iceroot: so what i will do tommorow is will install wudi in one of the box and ask them to feel it for few days in a mean while will test about there drivers and all issues as they will have windows too.once they say i only need linux | 09:30 |
| rohan | is there *any* video player which can display anti-aliased beautiful subtitles *below* the video? i am on ubuntu 9.04 | 09:30 |

| SandGorgon | Paddy_EIRE, i saw a thread with people having problems on 64 bit FF 3.5 and flash - you will notice that i did not advertise a ppa, if people dont want to use it - i am sure they are smart enough | 09:35 |
| Paddy_EIRE | SandGorgon: I am sure that if someone is wanting that then they already know how to use a search engine. | 09:36 |
| ^Phantom^ | what the flip am i even doing? | 09:36 |
| jahid | FeasibilityStudy: that is not showing ALSA though, only showing pulseaudio and my intel analog and digital drivers | 09:36 |
| SandGorgon | Paddy_EIRE, which brings us to the original point - there is no reason why i should not be doing it, unless there is some ToS that you can show me | 09:36 |
| Paddy_EIRE | SandGorgon: this is a support channel. blog about it or something instead of spamming the channel with links. | 09:37 |
| ^Phantom^ | where do i get these drivers for the rt2500usb wlan device? | 09:37 |
| jahid | FeasibilityStudy: i think intel's analog and digitals are alsa, but when i start amarok after selecting alsa, it says cant use intel analog, falling back to ESound | 09:37 |

| Ademan_ | egh, 9.04 I mounted a remote ssh server using the places->connect to server menu, that's all fine, but my wifi sucks, I tracked down an ethernet cable and wired myself up, but now I can't unmount the existing connection (which seems unusable...) what can I do to force unmount it? gvfs-mount -u <mountpoint> seems to just hang... | 09:51 |

| chiossi1 | Problem: Powerfailure while upgrading firefox - I've tried update upgrade reinstall throu aptitude apt-get or synaptic Nothing happens - Firefox IS NOT working | 09:51 |

| ^Phantom^ | so basically i'm screwed there's no way to do this then? | 09:54 |
| FeasibilityStudy | jahid try rearranging the devices in phonon some more. Just to see if the removal of pulseaudio had any effect | 09:55 |
| FeasibilityStudy | Phantom hang on a min.. | 09:56 |

| stupendousness | ^Phantom^: just because monitor mode or injection work for a given chip under linux, doesn't mean they it works under windows as well | 10:17 |
| ^Phantom^ | stupendousness, okay. well, is there any way i can attempt to create an infrastructure AP with the dongle? | 10:17 |
| stupendousness | ^Phantom^: whats the chip inside the dongle? | 10:17 |
| ^Phantom^ | rt2500usb | 10:18 |
| ^Phantom^ | oh you mean the chip | 10:18 |
| ^Phantom^ | it's a Ralink chip | 10:18 |
| archman | ^Phantom^ what do you need monitor mode for? ;) | 10:19 |
| ^Phantom^ | nonono not monitor mode | 10:19 |

| lucian_ | hey how can give me a tip on how to completly remove beryl | 10:50 |
| lucian_ | i'm on ubuntu 9.04 | 10:50 |
| txw | 大家好 | 10:51 |
| lucian_ | i've made a complete remove from synaptic | 10:51 |
| lucian_ | but now when i try to reinstall it | 10:51 |
| lucian_ | doesnt work | 10:51 |
| Flannel | lucian_: What are you ultimately trying to accomplish? Why are you removing/reinstalling? | 10:52 |
| lucian_ | i had an error on beryl | 10:52 |
| lucian_ | so i had to remove it | 10:52 |
| lucian_ | my title bar disapeard | 10:52 |
| === Pak is now known as Guest55388 | ||
| lucian_ | excuse my english | 10:53 |
| mgt | What error do you get when you try and reinstall it? | 10:53 |
| Flannel | lucian_: 9.04 doesn't have beryl, it has compiz-fusion. Unless you've installed beryl yourself. | 10:53 |
| lucian_ | can't read /usr/bin/beryl-settings: No such file or directory | 10:53 |
| lucian_ | i've installit myself | 10:54 |
| Flannel | lucian_: How did you install it? | 10:54 |
| lucian_ | i've used an sh | 10:54 |
| lucian_ | weit so i can find the link | 10:55 |
| Flannel | lucian_: Beryl hasn't been developed in a while, the modern version of it is compiz-fusion, which was already installed on your machine. What were you trying to use beryl for? | 10:56 |
| lucian_ | :-?? | 10:57 |
| lucian_ | and compiz has the same visual efects? | 10:57 |
| qdb | hello | 10:57 |
| lucian_ | the cube and all ather things? | 10:57 |
| sergio | . | 10:57 |
| mgt | Compiz Fusion is Compiz + Beryl | 10:57 |
| qdb | where i can find punctuation marks? | 10:57 |
| POPEYE | where is keyboard config stored in ubuntu 9.04 | 10:58 |
| POPEYE | ? | 10:58 |
| Flannel | lucian_: Yes, that's all included in compiz-fusion | 10:58 |
| lucian_ | system-pref | 10:58 |
| lucian_ | i think | 10:58 |
| qdb | there is no punctuation category in character table program | 10:58 |
| sam\ | whats the sudo apt-get command to install flashplugins and stuff? | 10:58 |
| POPEYE | there is nothing in xorg.conf, and even when I add there is no effect | 10:59 |
| qdb | i want to find other side of » this time, for example | 10:59 |

| ubottu | sam\, please see my private message | 10:59 |
| lucian_ | and nothing | 11:00 |
| mgt | sam\: Go for apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree. If you want the other commonly used proprietary stuff, try ubuntu-restricted-extras | 11:00 |

| lucian_ | Flannel so is there a terminal command to remove all the remains of a packet from ubuntu? | 11:02 |
| Flannel | lucian_: What you installed (from a sh) isn't a package, packages will remove cleanly, yours may or may not. You might have to remove its components by hand, it depends on whether someone included a removal option with your sh, or whatever. | 11:03 |
| qdb | ok, there is "general" | 11:03 |
| mgt | Check for an uninstall.sh. You might have one. | 11:03 |
| lucian_ | if i privide you the sourcecode of the sh you could help me? | 11:04 |

| ubottu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 12:33 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | thedark, check to see in setting if audio is turned on for your windows virtual setting otherwise its the audio driver in windows | 12:33 |

| lambengolmor | Daniel_online: it's ok, if you have an nvidia card use the nvidia configuration | 12:34 |
| justcop | i have never used vmware but when running xp on my ubuntu system which isn't particularly fast, i don't notice any depreciation | 12:34 |

| dansku | lol http://electronicslab.org/2009/06/04/10a-on-graphite/ | 12:36 |
| ThorB | Can i creat a partition on a drive that already has an OS (my netbook, is 160GB and only ne drive with WIN XP, i want to dual boot XP & Ubuntu) | 12:36 |
| lambengolmor | Daniel_online: i don't know exactly... There's another program that builds a specific xorg at boot looking for present devices | 12:37 |
| Myrtti | dansku: how's that related to Ubuntu support? | 12:37 |
| dansku | sorry | 12:37 |
| dansku | wrong # =) | 12:37 |
| lambengolmor | Daniel_online: I had a similar problem, I just changed the lines I needed | 12:38 |
| thedark | under session information it says Audio is disabled | 12:38 |
| thedark | so how do I enable audio in virtualbox? | 12:38 |
| lambengolmor | Daniel_online: and left to the autoconfiguration the rest | 12:38 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, Yes but the problem is that there are no lines in the *.conf file :-( | 12:38 |
| lambengolmor | Daniel_online: none at all? | 12:39 |
| Daniel_online | So i can only paste the content and hope for the best :-) | 12:39 |
| aninjer | hi,all | 12:39 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, No nothing at all | 12:39 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | ThorB, yes you can | 12:39 |
| cTn | hi guys is there anyone with good knowledge of powermizer (nvidia)? | 12:40 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | thedark, if you go to the setting in virtualbox for your windows look for audio tab and see if it is checked | 12:40 |
| ThorB | Pirate_Hunter_ how? I cnt partition the drive from "Computer management" | 12:40 |
| lambengolmor | Daniel_online: sorry for the question... how have you opened xorg.conf? | 12:40 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, Yes i did look whats inside http://pastebin.com/m5aec91ce | 12:40 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, just did a less to the file | 12:41 |

| thedark | the settings tab is greyed out | 12:41 |
| mohan_ | i did sudo mount --bind /someDirectory /someDirec | 12:41 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | ThorB, just pop the ubuntu cd in it should do it for you once you set it up, you might want to look at guides online otherwise use gparted livecd that also does partitioning and quite easy to use | 12:41 |
| france1159 | hello everyone | 12:42 |
| lambengolmor | Daniel_online: that's not nothing. That Xorg is right | 12:42 |
| mohan_ | To do directory mounting.. | 12:42 |
| mohan_ | how do i make it permanent.. | 12:42 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, hmmm okay I dont get it then - where do I paste the new settings then? | 12:42 |
| frepe | I'm running Ubuntu 9.04 with two monitors and an nvidia card. I've got my desktop spanning both monitors, but I can't open any windows, or move any windows to, the second monitor. | 12:42 |
| ThorB | Pirate_Hunter_ Hmmm GParted i heard oof, but i have to USb cd-room for my netbok, i'l have to put it on a USB | 12:42 |
| mohan_ | i did Directory mounting using --bind command.. now how do i make it permanent? can it be added to fstab? | 12:43 |
| lambengolmor | Daniel_online: i found it: now HAL manage the devices... can you paste me also the new settings you've found? | 12:43 |
| frepe | What do I need to do to open windows on the second monitor? | 12:43 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, Yeah sure | 12:43 |
| zhoujingrui | i need help thanks my ubuntu no voice at all | 12:43 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | tHORB, if im not mistaken gparted also has for usb and so should ubuntu (you should be able to install ubuntu from usb also) | 12:43 |
| zhoujingrui | thanks | 12:43 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, http://pastebin.com/mec3a33b | 12:44 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | thedark, you must stop virtualbox first before you go changing the settings can't be running xp at the sametime | 12:44 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, Im used to work with server NOT using the gui :-) | 12:44 |
| mohan_ | !mount | 12:45 |
| ubottu | mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 12:45 |
| lambengolmor | Daniel_online: uhmmm you mean you have not GUI in the machine we're talking about? | 12:45 |
| thedark | yes I know, I have the Vmachine stopped | 12:45 |
| thedark | but the settings tab is still grayed out | 12:45 |
| media | Hi, anyone can help with this error ERROR: libx264 version must be >= 0.65 | 12:46 |
| media | Thanks | 12:46 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, No Im using gnome - what I meant was that I dont use GUI in my work :-) | 12:46 |
| mohan_ | media: install that particular version.. | 12:47 |
| ThorB | Pirate_Hunter_ Hmmm GParted, im looking at it now , and I 'mounted an Iso to an USB from this tutorial, all it does it make the live CD on the USB' http://tinyurl.com/6xzeow | 12:47 |
| media | mohan_ I tried but it's not in the list of ubuntu 8.10 | 12:47 |
| lambengolmor | Daniel_online: ok, sorry but I use it... Anyway: the problem is that you need a complete device section for you graphic card | 12:47 |
| mohan_ | media: search online.. the deb file.. | 12:48 |
| lambengolmor | Daniel_online: I think the faster way to build it is to run Ati catalyst | 12:48 |
| media | instead it installs this version libx264-dev (1:0.svn20080408-0.0ubuntu1 | 12:48 |
| orkutguru | *.* also | 12:48 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, Do I need to download a package? | 12:48 |
| media | mohan_ I'll try that | 12:48 |
| lambengolmor | Daniel_online: I think you just need to install the ati drivers from gnome interface and catalyst would be installed by defalut | 12:49 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, lsmod |grep radeon dosent show much so perhaps the driver isnt installed in the first place | 12:49 |
| orkutguru | sudo apt-get -f install (packege name) | 12:49 |
| media | mohan_ can you provide a link? | 12:49 |
| lambengolmor | Daniel_online: yeah, you can have the opensource driver | 12:49 |
| media | please | 12:49 |
| lambengolmor | Daniel_online: you have to choose which one you want to use | 12:50 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, Is this the one? X.Org X server -- ATI display driver wrapper | 12:50 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, just did a search for ati | 12:50 |
| lambengolmor | Daniel_online well... sincerly I never had an ati, so I'm not sure... | 12:51 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, Ill give it a try -) | 12:51 |
| Daniel_online | lambengolmor, thank you so much for your time - a pleasure :-) | 12:51 |

| ThorB | Pirate_Hunter_ what about Wubi is it a Virtual Machine? or it dual boots your machine? | 12:52 |
| mohan_ | media: try here : http://www.debian-multimedia.org | 12:53 |
| CSSnub | OK - according to deluser 'bob' doesn't exist (I just deleted him in the GUI). But if I try to make a new 'bob' it tells me that name is taken. What's going on? | 12:53 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | ThorB, wubi will install ubuntu also not too sure of how it does it but it aint a vm your best best is to use gparted on usb and load from it otherwise just install ubuntu the install process does give an option to partition disk it is quite easy fi you wish to cancel do so and it wont affect your system | 12:54 |

| lambengolmor | lucian_: no, compiz doesn't have emerald theme manager | 12:57 |
| lucian_ | and how do i get 1 | 12:57 |
| Myrtti | !emerald | lucian_ | 12:57 |
| ubottu | lucian_: emerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives. | 12:57 |
| lucian_ | can you tell me the name of a package? | 12:58 |
| ThorB | Pirate_Hunter_ Hmm k i think i will try Wubi, and see how that works, and if it fails screws my system, I'll learn from experiance :D | 12:58 |

| Hecate | oops, sorry fellas, that was supposed to end up in a query | 12:59 |
| lambengolmor | lucian_: I advice you to install fusion-icon... | 12:59 |
| Hecate | mohan_, i just took a look in the fstab manpage (man fstab), if you leave the 3rd field empty, it should do exactely what you want | 12:59 |
| lambengolmor | lucian_: it gives you a tray icon and if you have installed emerald (package emerald if i'm not wrong) | 12:59 |

| zhoujingrui | hi | 13:00 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | ThorB, i wouldnt advice on that you might lose all your data, why dont you just use the livecd for ubuntu it allows you to check it out without damaging your system and even install it if your happu with the settings. Wubi takes too long and gets everything online not my cup of tea | 13:00 |
| zhoujingrui | my ubuntu no sound at all | 13:00 |

| lucian_ | lamb thx for the advice chears | 13:01 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | Promille, no it doesn't for mine a group/company had made a specific app that allowed the printer to work direct from ubuntu i just had to fork out $10, i decided the extra hassle of going to vm to print was not a hassle at all | 13:01 |
| jamiewan | Promille: I also use canoscan toolbox for lide25 and it works for me with xsane 0.996 | 13:01 |

| racecar56 | Pirate_Hunter_, didnt work :( | 13:25 |
| Winfugee | I'm completely new to IRC and pretty new to Ubuntu, though its preference for no root login and escalation through sudo is a lot like solaris which I had to use for work. | 13:25 |
| matrixblue | vanessa, iceroot yeah sorry my bad...typo | 13:25 |
| lewCarroll | thanks, guys. I have to go now. | 13:25 |
| gartral | nvm... 3 time fluke.. | 13:25 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | racecar56, ok what windows manager you using, what exactly did you do and what is broken with as much detail as possible | 13:25 |
| TheSavageSam | Pirate_Hunter_, I don't know how to do that. :( I have just tried press del on the files, but doesn't seem to help. | 13:26 |
| Hajuu | Impossible.. | 13:26 |
| TheSavageSam | I probably should clean some cache files if there are any | 13:26 |
| lewCarroll | OK, matrix, I'll do it as you said. thanks a lot. Bye. :) | 13:26 |

| iceroot | TheSavageSam: sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get clean will get some free disk-space. its deleting cached and no longer needed .deb-files | 13:27 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | TheSavageSam, ok no problem first you say the disk is full fair enough but that doesnt explain why you can delete anything, so what exactly happened, did you install anything, delete system file or any files. The more info you give the easier it would be for others to help you | 13:27 |
| === marko-_-- is now known as marko-_- | ||
| TheSavageSam | The what happened is that I downloaded torrents and suddenly I saw this problem. So I think that disk became full and here we are. | 13:28 |

| Pirate_Hunter_ | racecar56, sorry just checked window maker errh ddint know it was a wm thought it was a slit dock my fault if you log into it the menu can be accessed through right click, if you read the man wmaker in terminal it might help the quickest way is to log into a gnome session and purge wmaker from your system than install it again (if thats what you want) | 13:37 |

| Winfugee | oh no ziroday. I am much too noob. Just mostly watching and learning... | 13:43 |

| Pirate_Hunter_ | you know in ubuntu when you're about to login at the lower left-corner there should be options for session choose gnome and login otherwise ctrl+alt+f1 login and type sudo apt-get purge wmaker this command should remove wmaker and all its files from your system | 13:43 |
| racecar56 | Pirate_Hunter_, i did that already | 13:44 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | racecar56, that was for you | 13:44 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | racecar56, what do you mean you purged wmaker and it is still in your system? | 13:44 |
| racecar56 | Pirate_Hunter_, anyway apt-get purge dosen't work for me... i have to do apt-get remove --purge | 13:44 |
| racecar56 | Pirate_Hunter_, i purged it and then i installed it and the menu is still nuts | 13:44 |
| Winfugee | I just noticed you were very involved, ziroday, and troubleshooting multiple things at once. Figured it was a good thing to watch. :-) | 13:45 |
| lambengolmor | ziroday: I've tried again, i think it's the 12th time i restart those both on server and on client and i also did 2 reboot... the result is the same | 13:45 |
| lambengolmor | ziroday: thanks anyway | 13:45 |
| ziroday | lambengolmor: have you done sudo exportfs -a ? | 13:45 |
| xtmnx | how do I uninstall nvidia driver installed from their .run file? trying to upgrade to 185 from 180 and apparently i need to remove old driver first | 13:45 |
| tck2 | i have a system thats stuck at reiserfs: md0: checking transaction log (md0) for about 5mins now on bootup, should i leave it as it or reboot it? is it doing anything useful or just stuck? | 13:45 |
| lambengolmor | ziroday: yes, also that | 13:45 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | racecar56, so the menu is there but it is not in the order you want it to be? if so you must check the config file that sets the menu that requires reading and going online | 13:45 |
| ziroday | lambengolmor: hmm, what about sudo exportfs -ra? | 13:45 |
| racecar56 | Pirate_Hunter_, there isn't any entries is what im saying | 13:46 |
| ziroday | lambengolmor: hmm http://nfs.sourceforge.net/nfs-howto/ar01s07.html#unable_to_mount_fs might be able to help you better then I can | 13:46 |

| lambengolmor | ziroday: thanks a lot! anyway also exportfs -ra + deamons resart didn't worked... | 13:47 |
| ziroday | lambengolmor: bummer | 13:47 |
| xtmnx | FiremanEd: they're all marked as not activated because i didn't install fro repository | 13:47 |
| FiReSTaRT | xtmnx: once you're working with the open driver (be careful as you can't run compiz with it or graphics-intensive stuff like google earth) you can install the 185 driver according to the nvidia instructions | 13:47 |
| === MadMax is now known as Guest43780 | ||

| racecar56 | Pirate_Hunter_, :| i give up for now | 13:48 |
| FiReSTaRT | xtmnx: if you haven't even installed the 180, you should be cool to install the 185.. just follow the nvidia instructions and send me a pm so i know if it fixes the suspend and hdmi sound issues :) | 13:48 |
| xtmnx | FiremanEd: heh ok (i don't have anything connected to hdmi here though) | 13:49 |

| ziroday | ewsubach: because there is no [b]+ in that string? | 13:50 |

| FiReSTaRT | Winfugee, via pm of course ;) | 13:54 |
| waltzingalong | ewsubach: does grep know that? | 13:54 |

| ewsubach | ziroday: that worked, thank you! | 13:54 |

| Welshy-Rob | Hi, I recently just installed the recommended updates from Ubutu and they were all mostly firefox ones,once installed my firefox now doesnt work,it comes up with the window but dose nothing,it wont load my homepage or let me see my preferences or do anything please help | 14:12 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | lucian_, there is no such thing as a good dock application in my opinion, however, you could try avn, cairo-dock,gnome-doc etc | 14:12 |
| lucian_ | if you could pls tell me the package name | 14:12 |
| ewsubach | lucian_: avant window *navigator | 14:12 |
| lucian_ | so i could installit directly from terminal | 14:12 |
| chocobanana | lucian_: you can search in synaptic | 14:12 |
| chocobanana | gnomedo or awm | 14:13 |
| mooselin | lirc does not seem to work on 9.04 ? are there any known problems | 14:13 |
| ewsubach | lucian_: yes you can install from terminal | 14:13 |
| lucian_ | ok then wich is easier to configure :D | 14:13 |
| chocobanana | lucian_: GnomeDo. AWM is cool but will a little bit more time to configure and suit your needs | 14:14 |
| user01 | mmm i think 127.0.0.1 might be the issue | 14:14 |
| === \FUH is now known as \fuh | ||
| chocobanana | Welshy-Rob: can you restart your system and see if Firefox misbehaves? | 14:15 |
| user01 | im going to try to change that and see what happens | 14:15 |
| ewsubach | lucian_: chocobanana is right. in fact, I like to have both installed. | 14:15 |
| Welshy-Rob | ahhh i havent restarted yet thanks that might be why lol :P | 14:15 |
| lucian_ | i dont have the sources.list for thoes aps | 14:15 |
| lucian_ | cand find them x( | 14:15 |
| chocobanana | Welshy-Rob: normally you dodn't need to restart but it may be useful for you | 14:15 |
| ewsubach | lucian_: sudo apt-get install avant-window-navigator | 14:16 |
| furenku | i'm trying to write a shell script in which there is a counter; i need this counter for the creation of filenames; however, i don't know how to format this counter in three digits... im doing 'let "a += 1"' -- how can i format this to three digits? | 14:16 |
| Hajuu | Impossible.. | 14:16 |
| lucian_ | iii col | 14:16 |
| lucian_ | i've just misspeled the name of the ap | 14:16 |
| lucian_ | thx | 14:16 |
| ewsubach | lucian_: sudo apt-get install gnome-do | 14:17 |
| user01 | is there an example of how a hosts file should look in ubuntu? | 14:17 |
| geirha | furenku: a=$((a+1)) | 14:18 |
| lucian_ | and if i mess to much with my desktop interface elements is there a way to restore the position of each element? | 14:18 |
| geirha | furenku: Doh, didn't read the last part. You can use printf to format it. printf "%03d" $a | 14:19 |
| ewsubach | lucian_: i don't know what you mean by that. | 14:19 |
| lucian_ | like moveing the bottom bar or deleateing it | 14:19 |
| Welshy-Rob | chocobanana, Thanks it works now = ) | 14:20 |
| lucian_ | and replace some of the panels | 14:20 |
| chocobanana | Welshy-Rob: fantastic :) | 14:20 |
| ewsubach | lucian_: yes, you can always get those back another time | 14:20 |
| furenku | geirha, thanks a lot; i'm trying it out... but can't seem to understand the syntax for printf | 14:20 |
| ewsubach | user01: there are tutorials online of how to do it. if you view the hosts.deny file for example, the comments give some explanation of syntax | 14:20 |
| lucian_ | :)) not like that i mean like some command and pwf all back | 14:21 |
| lucian_ | :D | 14:21 |
| tag | I'm really quite miffed about the fglrx support termination. Sucks man. | 14:21 |

| afilatun2 | Hi, I've got a ubuntu server running (with gnome desktop on it) and I'd like to use it remotely (fullscreen) on my mac, how do I do that? | 14:22 |
| tmmk3 | i can't use fglrx (from the repos) in jaunty ( i get wrong monitor frequencies and when changing frequencies with xrandr nothing happen but a black screen | 14:22 |

| tmmk3 | I have a HD3200 | 14:22 |
| erUSUL | !vnc | afilatun2 | 14:22 |
| ubottu | afilatun2: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 14:22 |
| geirha | furenku: filename=$( printf "basename%03d" $((a++)) ) | 14:22 |
| afilatun2 | erUSUL : thanks | 14:22 |
| erUSUL | afilatun2: or use Xwindows directly | 14:22 |
| legend2440 | tag: yea my tv out stopped working with jaunty on my radeon 9600 so i ordered an nvidia card from Amazon | 14:23 |
| furenku | geirha, where 'filename' is 'a' or any other filename, correct? | 14:23 |
| lucian_ | :)) NVM thx anyway you're the best man in the world :X | 14:23 |

| tag | chocobanana: Mine's on a laptop as well (Radeon Mobility X1400) | 14:23 |
| chocobanana | tag: awful | 14:24 |
| lucian_ | yes i saw i fell like a little child in a toystore :D=)) | 14:24 |

| dhalsimm | hi, firefox doesn't start, neighter from terminal | 14:24 |

| dhalsimm | i type firefox in terminal, there is no output and there is no change in top... anybody help? | 14:26 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | erUSUL, so just the difference in protocol to dot he same job nothing more or less | 14:26 |
| tag | See...if mine was, I'd be a bit more understanding. Mine is just hardly over two years old (and its a thinkpad, I shelled out quite a bit for it). | 14:26 |
| erUSUL | Pirate_Hunter_: as far as i can see; yes | 14:27 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | erUSUL, ok | 14:27 |
| furenku | geirha, thanks a lot! it worked perfectly! | 14:27 |
| furenku | geirha, since i wanted just the numers for the filenames (no basename) i did the following: a=$( printf "%03d" $((a+=1)) ) | 14:27 |
| furenku | thanks a lot, really | 14:27 |
| Pirate_Hunter_ | dhalsimm, i dont really know how to help you but what does apt-cache policy firefox output | 14:28 |

| Halitech | ThorsonB, for a newbie it will still depend somewhat on what they will be doing, I usually do a base install and add what I want but typically its deluge, devede, vlc, icedove, amsn, f-spot and audacity | 14:50 |
| richj | wolf23, set it to full access | 14:50 |
| richj | dhalsimm, seg fault? it didnt run? | 14:50 |
| ThorsonB | Halitech whats F-Spot? | 14:51 |
| Halitech | ThorsonB, why install tar files? | 14:51 |
| dhalsimm | richj: unfortunately | 14:51 |
| Halitech | ThorsonB, its a graphic viewing app similiar to acdsee | 14:51 |
| richj | mac9416, the programs available to install are downloaded from a list of repositories in the file, /etc/apt/sources.list | 14:51 |
| richj | mac9416, look at cmdline: man apt-get | 14:51 |
| ThorsonB | Halitech ahh! ok, well tar files becus i got a program i DL'ed and its a Tar file | 14:52 |
| Halitech | ThorsonB, what program and did you check in synaptic to see if it was there first? | 14:52 |
| richj | dhalsimm, did this behaviour start suddenly? | 14:52 |
| wolf23 | richj, i took the unmark from read-only and i keep the mark from make permanent and it it shows the same problem | 14:52 |
| ThorsonB | Halitech, nope didnt check Syaptic.. im still a newbie! it took me a while just to get my wifi to work with it | 14:53 |
| dhalsimm | richj: I was working in vista for about 3 weeks, then I started ubuntu, firefox doesn't start, I upgraded kernel and firefox, restarted, and firefox still doesn'r start | 14:53 |
| Halitech | ThorsonB, safest and best bet is to use programs from synaptic first | 14:54 |
| mac9416 | richj, well I know how Synaptic parses the index files, etc. I just don't know how Add/Remove Programs determines what software to display and which category the package belongs to. None of that info is contained in the index files. | 14:54 |
| wolf23 | richj, Failed to create a shared folder myuser (pointing to /home/myuser) for the virtual machine WindowsXp,Could not remove the shared folder 'myuser' (VERR_PERMISSION_DENIED) | 14:54 |

| Halitech | ThorsonB, have you installed the ubuntu-restricted-extras package? | 14:59 |
| Yanick_ | gynergie, I speak french... but what's your problem? | 14:59 |
| Yanick_ | ThorsonB, that sounded more spanish than french :P | 14:59 |
| gynergie | ah ok | 14:59 |
| mac9416 | gynergie, reconfigure your connect screen? Could you rephrase that? | 14:59 |
| gynergie | je viens d'installer le paquet kubuntu avant j'étais sous ubuntu mais la je ne comprend pas la ligne de reconfiguration de l'écran de connection | 15:00 |
| Yanick_ | gynergie, I'll speak to you in private if you want to talk french | 15:00 |
| ThorsonB | Halitech Good question... (you might get fustrated from me after a while, to lazy to read manuals and forums today, so forgive me ) how do i "install the restricted packages or even check if they are installed | 15:00 |
| gynergie | ok yanick | 15:00 |

| gynergie | it's my first time in xchat, open the private windows for me yanick | 15:01 |
| Yanick_ | ThorsonB, lol, I'm learning it (don,t even know how to say that in espaniol) | 15:01 |
| Halitech | ThorsonB, we all started somewhere :) you can either use synaptic to check and install or sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras ... change ubuntu to kubuntu if using kde | 15:01 |
| richj | mac9416, it is in python, just had a look | 15:01 |
| patapouf | Hi all, I'm using gvfs alot withing nautilus and gedit but I find annoying that it's ask me over to authenticate twice : once in nautilus and a second time in gedit .. Is there a way to disable this double authentication ?? | 15:02 |
| mac9416 | richj, do you have a link? | 15:02 |
| ThorsonB | Halitech right now I am in Synaptic Pakage Manager, and i cant find "vlc" when i search for it, i guess I need to add that right :P | 15:02 |

| thiebaude | tonyf12: thats the way grub does, you'll hava a choice of which OS to go into | 15:03 |
| Halitech | ThorsonB, vlc isn't necessary but I thought it was included in the base repos and I'm running debian on this system so can't check | 15:03 |

| thiebaude | ThorsonB: hey, I know what you mean, i just went all ubuntu few days ago from XP | 15:34 |
| mib_sbadufp7 | thiebaude: is there any specific reason why the x.10 release exists? | 15:34 |
| kbrosnan | RB2: they are there, just not in bookmarks.html anymore. places.sqlite | 15:34 |

| mib_sbadufp7 | thiebaude: I under stand it's a different "release cycle", I was just wondering is there any reason _not to_ upgrade to 9.10? Would it bring any potential instability? | 15:36 |

| Fitzsimmons | the way it works in 9.04 is really clumsy | 15:39 |
| Fitzsimmons | it was way better before | 15:39 |
| tudon | GrootBrak, are the other users using compiz or other desktop effects that the main user does not | 15:39 |

| mib_sbadufp7 | thiebaude: I know :) Couldn't find any info.. I'm more than willing to wait for 10.04, it beats the crap out of waiting for a new windows version (10 years?), but if 9.10 is basically a step between 9.04 and 10.04, why not? :) | 15:41 |

| Pirate_Hunter | craftomaniac, no its not i just searched the cache and nothing comes up, guessing i need to add it to the sourcelist (the link) | 16:15 |

| Paddy_EIRE | !deb | ThorsonB | 16:16 |
| ubottu | ThorsonB: deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click (in Ubuntu) or click (in Kubuntu) on them to start the GDebi utility. | 16:16 |
| craftomaniac | Pirate_Hunter, check your software sources? i think you need to enable some repository (i forgot which) | 16:16 |
| craftomaniac | ThorsonB, it's not really an executable like in windows (linux has executables too) but its like a file with the contents of a program and ubuntu knows how to install it | 16:16 |

| craftomaniac | it's used a lot to zip the source code of a program | 16:18 |
| kdag | Paddy_EIRE: thanks, let me look for notification area | 16:18 |
| craftomaniac | because the compression it does squeezes source code a lot | 16:19 |

| FiReSTaRT | kdag: you can configure it so it only shows when you have an active bt connection | 16:20 |

| FiReSTaRT | kdag, well when there's an adapter present.. the other options are always and never | 16:20 |
| craftomaniac | yeah use the command line (at least that's the only way i know of) | 16:20 |

| ubuntu | I'm on a jaunty USB pen livesession... today I had to restart it, and unlike the previous days the res is too low and bad... can-t make it recognize my screen and alter it to one as high as in previous sessions. what to do? | 16:27 |
| xcerca | i'm doing some RAIding, i know i need to set the /boot partitons as RAID 1 , any guess at how big i should make the /boot partition ? | 16:27 |
| ThorsonB | Ok so now I have installed a .deb file with GEdit, where the hell did it install? I dont se an Icon anywhere | @ firestart craftomaniac | 16:27 |
| craftomaniac | ThorsonB, hmm try accessories > text editor | 16:28 |
| Pirate_Hunter | ThorsonB, there will be no icon check the menu | 16:28 |
| Halitech | ThorsonB, you wouldn't install a .deb with gedit | 16:28 |
| sysdoc | Hi all! I have a grub question. Here is the scenario, I had Ubuntu on Hd0 and installed a new drive to Hd0 and now Ubuntu is on Hd1. Installed Fc 10 to the new Hd0 and their grub did not search for other OS's to boot. So I have added the Ubuntu configuration to the Fc 10 grub.conf, and it errors with a error 23 "Must load Linux kernel before initrd". My kernel line IS before the initrd exactly as it is in the Ubuntu's menu.lst | 16:28 |
| sysdoc | file. Can anyone shed a lil light on how to configure grub correctly? | 16:28 |
| FiReSTaRT | craftomaniac, i believe ThorsonB meant with gdeb lol | 16:28 |
| Pirate_Hunter | ThorsonB, you can just call the app through terminal or alt+f2 | 16:28 |
| Halitech | ThorsonB, or do you mean you install gedit as a .deb file? | 16:28 |
| FiReSTaRT | ThorsonB, Pirate_Hunter gave you the answer :) | 16:28 |
| craftomaniac | ThorsonB, I think you meant installed a deb with gedit in it, but anyway usually in linux you can find these apps in the repositories already. no need to download the deb | 16:29 |

| sabgenton_ | is there a way I can just install grub too /boot without installing ubntu? | 16:29 |
| sabgenton_ | ubuntu | 16:29 |
| FiReSTaRT | craftomaniac, he installed aircrack with gdeb and confused gdeb with gedit | 16:30 |
| craftomaniac | oh . | 16:30 |
| sabgenton_ | I just want like a grub stage or somthing | 16:30 |
| ThorsonB | Ohhhhh I learn something nice today!! "Alt+F2" ROCKS! ( @craftomaniac pirate_hunter_ halitech firestart ) Sorry guys BIG TIME newbie here :P | 16:30 |
| sjlkg | hi, does anyone who uses laptop-mode-tools know why, when i set BATT_HD_POWERMGMT=250, hdparm -I says "advanced power management level:128" ? | 16:30 |

| FiReSTaRT | ThorsonB, no worries... remember my earlier brain fart? :) | 16:31 |
| sysdoc | Pirate_Hunter, That is nice however as stated in my last post I'm using the Fc 10 grub. It appears at least at this point Ubuntu and Fc 10 use grub in differently. | 16:31 |

| craftomaniac | ThorsonB, don't worry you'll eventually get used to linux and find out it's really very fun. By the way, check out Gnome-do | 16:32 |
| Pirate_Hunter | sysdoc, oh didn't know, sorry, you coud read the man pages that would be a start and check online also ask/check the forum | 16:32 |
| ThorsonB | craftomaniac whats a Gnome-do ? a website? | 16:32 |
| xcerca | sysdoc , in your /boot partiton (or if it's under /) just edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst file | 16:32 |
| lucian_ | how can recommand me a site for AWN dock skins | 16:32 |
| xcerca | you can have that on one hdd and boot to any other hdd in your system | 16:33 |
| FiReSTaRT | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOME_Do | 16:33 |
| FiReSTaRT | ThorsonB, check out the wikipedia link | 16:33 |
| craftomaniac | ThorsonB, it's this app launcher thing but it does waaay more than just launching apps. it can search your files and make programs do stuff, etc. yeah go to that website | 16:33 |
| ThorsonB | firestart lol, whats sup wth you and that brain fart! :P do you need some toilet paper with that | 16:33 |
| Pirate_Hunter | lucian_, you would be better off with gnome-do still if you type themes awn in google you'll get some sites | 16:34 |
| FiReSTaRT | ThorsonB, brain fart is the north american (well at least canadian, not sure about south of the border) slang for a brain glitch.. usually refers to when you can't remember something or confuse 2 different things | 16:34 |
| ThorsonB | I feel like an expert already :P now i show off to my friends, and they will have no idea what the hell I am doing ( @craftomaniac pirate_hunter_ halitech firestart ) | 16:35 |

| sysdoc | xcerca, I realize this however the error I'm receiving is a 23 error for grub, "Must load Linux kernel before initrd". My kernel line IS before the initrd.. So, I think I may be beyond simple additions to the menu.lst file cause Fc 10 uses the Grub.conf file- at least as far as I have been able to decipher at this point | 16:36 |
| FiReSTaRT | Myrtti, that's why included the tidbit about compiz ;) | 16:36 |

| rune_ | just noticed that karmic will have ext4 as default. I guess this means that the bugs from the kernel shipped with 9.04 are fixed? Converted ext3->ext4 when upgrading to 9.04, but had to downgrade due to filesystem corruption and frequent crashes. Symptom "CPU # stuck for 60 seconds" | 16:36 |
| Pirate_Hunter | lucian_, ubuntu comes with some default themes, in my opinion it is better for you to do a minimalist theming of your box using default themes and take more importance in getting to know how to use your box and its function (will come very in handy) | 16:37 |
| densou | I did a fresh install with ext4 and no trouble at all | 16:37 |

| craftomaniac | ThorsonB, hmm that's weird mine isn't working either | 16:51 |
| lucian_ | carl_ what does display when you start the game | 16:51 |
| lucian_ | or it doesnt even start the install | 16:51 |
| carl_ | lucian_: nothing, as if it didn't even launch | 16:51 |
| craftomaniac | hangon let me dig up a link i had to a site which explained some 1337 WEP cracking =) | 16:51 |
| carl_ | lucian_: it installed just fine, when I launch it the taskbar indicates "starting Counter Strike..." | 16:51 |
| carl_ | then it disappears | 16:51 |
| lucian_ | depends on the cs aplication | 16:51 |
| ThorsonB | craftomaniac i think there is a lot of stuff i still neeed to learn before i start wardriving, Aha! so then its airsnort that has issues | 16:51 |

| lucian_ | the nonsteam vers it's a little buggy | 16:52 |

| craftomaniac | yeah i think that was the reason it was discontinued. anyway I think the aircrack suite of tools can do better than airsnort. here's their wiki http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=tutorial | 16:52 |

| cadu | im on a netbook using the widely used Atom+Intel945gme combo | 17:07 |
| zsquareplusc | ShishKabab: yes, that could work too. or you can do it manually, copy the contents to a partition and use syslinux or extlinux to make it bootable. and you may need to rename the isolinux config file in that case | 17:07 |

| coz_ | earthen, mm is this driver the one from the repo ? | 17:07 |
| coz_ | earthen, glxinfo | grep version | 17:07 |

| earthen | coz_, yeah It's te recommended driver | 17:07 |
| lucian_ | why on xchat doesn't work the pm function ? | 17:08 |
| luilver | lucian_ have no idea ! | 17:08 |
| earthen | coz_, was wondering if anyone installed the verson 173 and if it was working better | 17:08 |
| luilver | ... and acer does not support ubuntu drivers :( | 17:08 |
| craftomaniac | vigo, ThorsonB, um it's system > prefs > keyboard shortcuts > add | 17:08 |
| Pirate_Hunter | lucian_, it does | 17:08 |
| ShishKabab | zsquareplusc: Ok. ThorsonB: I have a very special case: Windows won't boot (corrupted file system) and the PC doesn't boot from CD and has no floppy drive :) | 17:09 |
| coz_ | earthen, I am not having issues right now on this system however the ONLY drivers so far in the 180.xx series that are worth anything are the 180.17 beta and the 180.29 release neither of which are available in the repo unfortunately | 17:09 |
| Uuu | Hi! Sorry for writing not so Ubuntu-specific thing, but it's not a popular program I ask, and a big channel. :) New tint2 has a WM menu capability (it seems so). Did you manage it to work, anyone? | 17:09 |
| vigo | Thank you crtaftomaniac. | 17:09 |
| craftomaniac | no problem | 17:09 |
| vigo | whoops | 17:09 |
| vigo | mispelled that bad | 17:09 |
| Pirate_Hunter | !install > Pirate_Hunter | 17:09 |
| ubottu | Pirate_Hunter, please see my private message | 17:09 |
| lucian_ | Pirate did you recived my replay? | 17:09 |
| amy__ | hey | 17:09 |
| craftomaniac | lol =) doesn't matter | 17:09 |
| earthen | coz_, then why is it showing up as the recommended one to install ? | 17:09 |
| amy__ | do you guys think my computer is too slow to fun flightgear? | 17:10 |
| ThorsonB | vigo craftomaniac thansk | 17:10 |
| lucian_ | Pirate_Hunter did you recived my replay? | 17:10 |
| coz_ | earthen, yeah that is a problem... it is the one that the ubuntu team decided on apparenlty | 17:10 |
| f1assistance | is there a wireless adapter that works well with Ubuntu 9.04 64bit? | 17:10 |
| earthen | coz_, I don't have the driver installed right now I took it off because of the lockup's | 17:10 |
| amy__ | run i meant | 17:10 |
| craftomaniac | ThorsonB, no problemo =) | 17:10 |
| coz_ | earthen, however I am using the driver you have on this system with no issues so far | 17:10 |
| DuClare_ | amy__: Yeah, it looks sukky. But give it a try. | 17:10 |
| amy__ | Its too slow | 17:10 |
| ThorsonB | shishkabab oh well then..... does it have valuable data on its HDD? | 17:10 |
| DuClare_ | amy__: You just answered your question :| | 17:10 |
| earthen | coz_, the 180 you mean? or the 173 | 17:11 |
| amy__ | oh | 17:11 |
| zsquareplusc | ShishKabab: well copying the cd contents including hidden files to a separate partition and then use the bootloader of your choice to load the kernel and initrd from there should also work | 17:11 |
| amy__ | basically right, the flightgear seems to slow, i mean the movement | 17:11 |
| coz_ | earthen, i have the 180.44 installed | 17:11 |
| earthen | coz_, ok what video card do you have? | 17:11 |
| coz_ | earthen, just a 6600LE on this system | 17:12 |
| ShishKabab | ThorsonB: No. I backupped the data and then did a hard power-off which corrupted the file system. After that I discovered it won't boot from CD :S | 17:12 |
| craftomaniac | ShishKabab, no cd / floppy? try UNetBootIn to make a bootable USB, | 17:12 |
| ThorsonB | Is there like a Certification you can get with Linux systems? | 17:12 |
| earthen | coz_, ok I have the 8600m a little newer maybe it has something to do with that | 17:12 |
| craftomaniac | ThorsonB, no idea | 17:12 |
| ThorsonB | shishkabab checked the BIOS properly? | 17:13 |
| slipttees | great app benchmarking Linux = http://www.phoronix-test-suite.com/ | 17:13 |
| coz_ | earthen, that is a probablility also depending on the manufacturer.. however again 180.44 is not the best driver available for nvidia cards overall | 17:13 |
| vigo | ThorsonB: Yes, there are many, choice is still free. | 17:13 |
| Eloff | what's the command line thingy that prints the n most recent lines of a log file? (if only I could ask google that) | 17:14 |
| sebsebseb | hi | 17:14 |
| sbasuita | Eloff, tail | 17:14 |
| coz_ | earthen, so far the 180.xx series has not been a good group of drivers | 17:14 |
| Eloff | ah, thanks | 17:14 |
| ThorsonB | vigo what do you mean choice is still free? | 17:14 |
| sbasuita | Eloff, tail -n # file | 17:14 |
| earthen | coz_, oh no! what would you recommend then? | 17:14 |
| ShishKabab | ThorsonB: Yes. It says the first boot device is the CD-rom but none of my live CDs boot. And I can't disable the other boot devices like the HDD. It's a very old PC. | 17:14 |

| vanessa | Hi, new to Linux. Email through mweb was working fine. now send/receive box no longer highlighted so unable to send or receive messages. Help! | 17:14 |
| sbasuita | Eloff, or you can pipe it input like: cat /var/log/auth.log | tail -n 5 | 17:14 |
| earthen | coz_, you think the 173 would work better | 17:14 |
| coz_ | earthen, well if you are having serious issues,, as apparenlty you are and you are sure it has nothing to do with any other applicatoin or the system itself ... you could always install another driver after uninstalling that one completely | 17:15 |
| craftomaniac | ShishKabab, does your bios support booting USB? | 17:15 |
| sebsebseb | vanessa: I assume your having an issue with an email program, but which one? | 17:15 |
| coz_ | earthen, but you would have to download the drivers from nvidia to do that and there are some system settings that need editied | 17:15 |
| Eloff | interesting, thanks sbasuita | 17:15 |
| ShishKabab | craftomaniac: Nope. Old PC :) | 17:15 |
| earthen | coz_, I've uninstalled the 180 driver and my laptop has been running fine ever since | 17:15 |
| craftomaniac | ouch! hmm...... | 17:15 |
| vanessa | sebsebseb: evolution mail | 17:15 |
| luilver | why my screen dims when some apps are launched (Ex: virtualbox -comment foo -startvm $id) ? | 17:16 |
| coz_ | earthen, just on the nv driver? | 17:16 |
| lucian_ | hey how knows if ie4linux is recognized by Javascript browser detection or ather scripting language like real IE? | 17:16 |
| Uuu | (Sorry,I repeat my question second, and last, time ;)) New tint2 has a WM menu capability (it seems so). Did you manage it to work, anyone? | 17:16 |
| sebsebseb | vanessa: I don't use Evolution, and if I am going to use an email client, I will use Mozilla Thunderbird | 17:16 |
| eljak | hello how do i enable record extension for xorg? | 17:16 |
| ShishKabab | craftomaniac: Ah well. I'll just have to plug over the HDD. | 17:16 |
| coz_ | earthen, if you are not interested in compiz or games on the system,, then you most likely dont need anything more than the default driver | 17:16 |
| vigo | ThorsonB: I mean that some corporations will charge a bahoodle of coins, some groups do not. LPCI is a recognized one, but heck, so is any good hacker. | 17:16 |
| cabrey | lucian_, ie4linux is just a script to install ie | 17:17 |
| luilver | put some alerts in your java script code ! | 17:17 |
| vanessa | ok thanks | 17:17 |
| craftomaniac | ShishKabab, none of your live cd's boot? tried those made specifically for this situation like Systemrescuecd or something? ultra (or was it super) grub disk? | 17:17 |

| lucian_ | thx | 17:17 |
| coz_ | earthen, there is also this http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/ | 17:17 |
| earthen | coz_, i had compitz install that why i wanted it. but i uninstall that before i removed the nvidea driver and my system still crashed | 17:17 |
| ThorsonB | shishkabab oh well then, I dont know not that advanced.. | 17:17 |
| luilver | why my screen dims when some apps are launched (Ex: virtualbox -comment foo -startvm $id) ? | 17:18 |
| ShishKabab | craftomaniac: No. Just Ubuntu and Knoppix. | 17:18 |
| craftomaniac | if not I can't think of any other solution other than plucking out your harddisk | 17:18 |
| earthen | coz_, I do have the option of atp installing the 173 driver | 17:18 |
| sebsebseb | vanessa: Evolution can't connect to your email account, is that the issue? | 17:18 |
| coz_ | earthen, ooo no need to uninstall compiz it just wont work withouth 3d accelerated driver | 17:18 |
| ThorsonB | vigo are thier any other Linux certifications? | 17:18 |
| lucian_ | under what name i can find it in source? | 17:18 |
| === Guest45059 is now known as _raven | ||
| coz_ | earthen, that 173 is just as bad but you can try it | 17:18 |
| kassah_ | who would I talk to about Mobile Broadband via NetworkManager? | 17:18 |
| craftomaniac | oh you've tried Knoppix .... then i think there is no need to try those two unless you just want one last try =) | 17:18 |
| ThorsonB | vigo well known so i can walk into a firm and be like I gor a LPCI cert. | 17:18 |
| coz_ | earthen, the problem with the nouveau driver is that there is no 3d acceleration at this point | 17:18 |
| vanessa | seems to be - was working, but send/receive box not highlighted now | 17:19 |
| earthen | coz_, yeah I know but i want to try my system with the nvidea driver installed and with out compitz just to see if in fact it was the driver not conpitz that was the problem | 17:19 |
| coz_ | earthen, it was not compiz if this was a clean install of ubuntu 9.04 | 17:19 |
| earthen | coz_, ok even with the 173 driver? | 17:19 |
| vigo | ThorsonB: There are many, as I stated, RHEL, LPI,LPCI, Canonical has a course, or use to, Debian has one or two. | 17:19 |
| coz_ | earthen, well you can try it | 17:19 |
| earthen | coz_, yes it was a clean install | 17:20 |
| coz_ | earthen, then compiz was not the problem | 17:20 |
| coz_ | earthen, if the x server crashes it generally a driver issue | 17:20 |
| Winfugee | I'm betting I am having a COMMON issue. Synaptic touch pad crashes after suspend-resume | 17:20 |
| ShishKabab | craftomaniac: Mmm... I'm not going to waste antother CD. I'm pretty comfortable with the command-line with which I can rescue everything I want. | 17:21 |
| earthen | coz_, yeah, so does the 173 driver had 3d support | 17:21 |
| sebsebseb | vanessa: I am not exactly where where evolution will store the user program data. For most programs in a Linux distro, program user data gets put in hidden .folders in home. For example .mozilla will be the Firefox profile. Evolution will have something in there, with your account details and such. If you were to remove it your emails would be lost, unless on the server still. However by removing or moving it | 17:21 |
| sebsebseb | you start over, just as if you had never used Evolution before. | 17:21 |
| coz_ | earthen, yes that driver indeed has it 3d acceleration | 17:21 |
| vigo | ThorsonB: here are some free study guides for LPI: http://www.certification-crazy.net/lpi_study.htm | 17:21 |
| sebsebseb | vanessa: that was meant to start with I am not exacty suer where evolution | 17:21 |
| luilver | why my screen dims when some apps are launched (Ex: virtualbox -comment foo -startvm $id) ? | 17:21 |
| craftomaniac | ShishKabab, Okay I see. Then just go ahead and pluck out that hard drive. Good luck =) | 17:21 |
| ShishKabab | craftomaniac: Thanks! | 17:22 |
| coz_ | luilver, laptop? | 17:22 |

| Uuu | DaZ| xD | 17:25 |
| bo7amny | i still can install programs but cant remove them | 17:25 |
| coz_ | luilver, ok not sure specifically why the dimming it could be anumber of issues but since you say it only happens when running vm check to see how much system memory you have and how much of that you have alocated to the video as shared memory | 17:25 |
| ThorsonB | thanks for the link vigo , doesnt Pidgin have some sort of twitter in it? craftomaniac | 17:25 |

| tiyowan | ThorsonB: There is a plugin for Pidgin which will give you rudimentary twitter support. | 17:27 |
| caecus | Hi all, I have installed a fresh version of ubuntu-server 9.04 and mounted some cifs shares. They work and I can make new files, however, I can't write any new content to them. This works when connecting to the shares from other machines. Any ideas? | 17:27 |

| sebsebseb | amy__: which version of Ubuntu are you on? the later ones have some graphical effects enabled by default | 17:39 |
| luilver | coz_, so !? | 17:39 |
| coz_ | luilver, what is the total memory on that system? | 17:39 |
| craftomaniac | sjlkg, actually i'm not sure if hdparm -S 0 disables it. or maybe to make the harddrive wait very long before it spins down, you could try hdparm -S<bignumber> like hdparm -S120 for ten minutes | 17:39 |
| luilver | coz_, 2 GB | 17:39 |
| amy__ | sebsebseb: i'm using verion 9.04 ubuntu | 17:39 |
| coz_ | luilver, you could try going into the bios and increasing the shared memory a bit to test this | 17:40 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: system > preferences > visual effects | 17:40 |
| tudon | what are you trying to do with an intel video chipset? | 17:40 |
| coz_ | luilver, no gurantee that will work but if it is a video memory issue that should take care of it | 17:40 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: put none, and close it and try your game again, it might work better | 17:40 |
| tudon | intel video is one of the lowest performence on the market | 17:40 |
| Pirate_Hunter | is there an app available that allows dynamic notes/projects to be placed on my desktop? | 17:40 |
| luilver | coz_, ok thx a huge lot ! | 17:41 |
| coz_ | luilver, otherwise i wo uld check with someone more skilled in vm than I am | 17:41 |
| luilver | coz_, gonna try it ;) | 17:41 |
| [Dynami] | ifconfig down [interface] ... what is the interface ? | 17:41 |
| craftomaniac | Pirate_Hunter, hmm, dynamic notes/projects being? | 17:41 |
| coz_ | luilver, cant hurt you can always return it to default later | 17:41 |
| luilver | coz_, oh | 17:41 |
| amy__ | sebsebseb: its not got visual effects on preferences | 17:41 |
| Pirate_Hunter | is there an app available that allows dynamic notes/projects to be placed on my desktop (something close to onenote from microsoft)? | 17:41 |
| coz_ | luilver, give it a try though | 17:41 |
| luilver | coz_, but it happens too using synergy | 17:41 |
| Pirate_Hunter | craftomaniac, read the last part of my edited post | 17:41 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: system > preferences > apperance | 17:41 |
| coz_ | luilver, not familiar with that let me google hold on | 17:41 |
| luilver | coz_, ok | 17:42 |
| OrEvA | I changed my monitor from 17" CRT to 19" LCD and now I am not able to use the full view of my monitor ...................... plz help | 17:42 |
| lucian_ | does any of you use antivirus or anytype of firewalls? | 17:42 |
| [Dynami] | why would you need an AV | 17:42 |
| [Dynami] | it's linux | 17:42 |
| amy__ | sebsebseb: yes i got to there now | 17:42 |
| craftomaniac | Pirate_Hunter, tomboy notes? | 17:42 |
| lanoxx | what the reason i can not start opengl apps when compositing is active? | 17:42 |
| sebsebseb | lucian_: antivirus not needed, but you should have a good user account password, letters and numbers at least, resoanblly long, and having a hardware firewall is good, if you got one in a router and enabled, that will probably do it | 17:42 |
| amy__ | sebsebseb: what do I do now? | 17:42 |
| WIGGMPk | lucian_: dont really need an AV unless your afraid of passing Windows viruses to Windows users.. I use ufw (uncomplicated firewall) to configure my FW | 17:42 |
| [Dynami] | ifconfig down [interface] ... what is the interface ? | 17:43 |
| sebsebseb | !virus | lucian_ | 17:43 |
| ubottu | lucian_: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 17:43 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: go to visaul efffects, and put none, then close it | 17:43 |
| [Dynami] | ifconfig down [interface] ... what is the interface ? | 17:43 |
| coz_ | luilver, ah ok mm not sure then.... I dont actually use synergy or vm at this point see if the memory alloaction incrase effects this | 17:43 |
| OrEvA | I changed my monitor from 17" CRT to 19" LCD and now I am not able to use the full view of my monitor ...................... plz help | 17:43 |
| luilver | [Dynami], all of them ! | 17:43 |
| Pirate_Hunter | craftomaniac, too simple doesnt stick on desktop and it doesnt really express ideas like onenote, to be able to write anywhre on the page, keep timeline etc | 17:43 |
| WIGGMPk | Maybe he wants the Antivirus to prevent infecting Windows users | 17:43 |
| zsquareplusc | [Dynami]: "eth0" for example | 17:43 |

| lvlefisto | compiz blur window plugin blocked my screen, i can't see anything! how can i restart the settings of compiz from console? | 17:43 |
| sebsebseb | lucian_: yep about all those Linux anti virus programs do, is scan for Windows viruses, which won't infect Linux distros | 17:43 |
| luilver | coz_, ok thx again | 17:44 |
| earthen | coz_, well looks like the 173 driver does the same thing | 17:44 |
| amy__ | sebsebseb: its already on none | 17:44 |
| luilver | coz_, gonna try ! | 17:44 |
| coz_ | luilver, let me know | 17:44 |
| luilver | coz_, hold on | 17:44 |
| wildc4rd | afternoon all | 17:44 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: did you install a graphics card driver by the way? | 17:44 |
| Pirate_Hunter | craftomaniac, any idea? | 17:44 |
| craftomaniac | ThorsonB, create account > facebook | 17:44 |
| amy__ | sebsebseb: haven't got graphic card on it | 17:44 |
| faethor | hello all | 17:44 |
| craftomaniac | Pirate_Hunter, hmm.... google tells me gournal... | 17:44 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: ok that could be the issue | 17:44 |
| amy__ | oh# | 17:45 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: system > administaration > hardware drivers | 17:45 |
| Plouf | er irc.kyronet.fr | 17:45 |
| jsj0nes | Pirate_Hunter: I've heard 'basket' is a pretty good replacement for Onenote, but haven't tried it myself. | 17:45 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: is there a graphics card driver available? | 17:45 |
| jeffreyf | Tracker isn't indexing Evolution emails. Anyone know why? | 17:45 |
| craftomaniac | Pirate_Hunter, hangon there should be a lot more. I don't use such a software | 17:45 |
| craftomaniac | Or maybe if you're feeling adventurous, txt file + conky ;) | 17:45 |
| tudon | lvlefisto, look for a compiz configuration file in home directory | 17:45 |
| Pirate_Hunter | craftomaniac, ok | 17:45 |
| amy__ | sebsebseb: nope | 17:45 |
| lvlefisto | tudon: thanks | 17:45 |
| ThorsonB | craftomaniac yea i know, but it wants a Feed :S i says get the feed from the left corner of my FB page | 17:45 |
| Paddy_EIRE | jeffreyf: well the solution to fixing beagles not indexing evolution problem was to delete the index.. so I would imagine it might be the same | 17:45 |
| Myrtti | Pirate_Hunter: like adesklets/gdesklets/screenlets? | 17:46 |
| Paddy_EIRE | jeffreyf: was your installation of ubuntu an upgrade? | 17:46 |
| tudon | with many programs removing the file or dir in home will reset its settings | 17:46 |
| tudon | but be careful not to remove something important | 17:46 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: Do you have any idea which card you have? Also how much RAM do you have? | 17:46 |
| craftomaniac | ThorsonB, i forgot what i did. Yeah i had to copy an url from somewhere | 17:46 |
| amy__ | I don't know anything about that! I have got a clue | 17:47 |
| luilver | coz_, I'm back (@ second computer) | 17:47 |
| coz_ | luilver, ok | 17:47 |
| luilver | coz_, my bios video memory is set to 8 mb | 17:47 |
| Pirate_Hunter | Myrtti, hmmm no not like those at all ill stick with tomboy for now or just run it through vb which is not what i want | 17:47 |
| craftomaniac | Pirate_Hunter, basket? | 17:47 |
| amy__ | It could be 512mb, something like that | 17:47 |
| coz_ | luilver, ooooo | 17:47 |
| Pirate_Hunter | !info basket | 17:47 |
| ubottu | basket (source: basket): a multi-purpose note-taking application for KDE. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.2-5ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 4853 kB, installed size 7524 kB | 17:47 |
| coz_ | luilver, there's the issue then | 17:47 |
| luilver | coz_, but i can find how to increase them ! | 17:47 |
| coz_ | luilver, not sure if the bios dosnt have a area to increase that then I dont know | 17:48 |
| Pirate_Hunter | craftomaniac, dont know never tried it, errh kde, hmmm well will look at it... thanks | 17:48 |
| tones | hey people, why can i not kill a running 'wodim' command, even with "kill -KILL ****"? | 17:48 |
| jeffreyf | Paddy_EIRE: Didn't work on an upgrade and still doesn't work on a scratch install | 17:48 |
| tudon | lvlefisto, possibly in home/name/.config/compiz | 17:48 |
| luilver | coz_, oh ! | 17:48 |
| Paddy_EIRE | jeffreyf: thats odd.. let me search about a bit | 17:48 |
| PlasmaSheep | Hey, I need help installing picard. Libavformat-dev is one of the dependencies (I'm installing from source since the deb acted weird), but upon trying to install it I get E: Broken packages. I follow the trail of broken packages and find that the ultimate dependency wants to uninstall a crapload of stuff from my computer | 17:48 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: ok run this command lspci and pastebin the output | 17:48 |
| new_kubuntu_user | hello | 17:48 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: whilst your at it do free | 17:48 |
| craftomaniac | Pirate_Hunter, http://alternativeto.net/desktop/microsoft-onenote/ | 17:48 |
| coz_ | luilver, there should be a setting in the bios somewhere if not then check to see if there is a bios update and if you are not familiar with flashing the bios dont do it | 17:49 |
| Paddy_EIRE | jeffreyf: also have you enabled trackers ability to index emails in the preferences | 17:49 |
| tones | see above please ^^ | 17:49 |
| new_kubuntu_user | i installed stylz under kubuntu Jaunty but i cannot find it in the program list | 17:49 |
| amy__ | sebsebseb: what do you mean by whilst your at it do free | 17:49 |
| ThorsonB | ok so when an program turns gray, thats when it isnt responding? | 17:49 |
| luilver | coz_, i already flashed my bios las year | 17:49 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: free is a command I want to you to run, as well as lspci | 17:49 |
| jeffreyf | Paddy_EIRE: I also unchecked then rechecked the enabled the "enable evoution email indexing" | 17:49 |
| lvlefisto | tudon: i found ~/.compiz is it? | 17:49 |
| coz_ | luilver, ok did you check to see if there was a bios update recently? | 17:49 |
| luilver | coz_, so if there is some update ... I'll do | 17:49 |
| Pirate_Hunter | craftomaniac, oooooh thank you very much will check them | 17:49 |
| densou | sebsebseb, amy has an Intel 865G | 17:50 |
| new_kubuntu_user | i have to search in my home directory?? | 17:50 |
| tudon | i am not sure if it wil help . mine looks rather empty that file. :( | 17:50 |
| luilver | coz_, nope, but i guess ubuntu 9.04 driver has to be the cause of the dim | 17:50 |
| Paddy_EIRE | jeffreyf: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tracker/+bug/360399 | 17:50 |
| sebsebseb | densou: how do you know? | 17:50 |
| craftomaniac | Pirate_Hunter, no problem. That site's new but i think it will get very useful in the future | 17:50 |
| tones | sorry to ask again, but why can i not kill a running 'wodim' command, even with "kill -KILL ****"? | 17:50 |
| coz_ | luilver, yeah because if there is no setting in the bios right now for increasing shared memory only a bios update is going to give that option | 17:50 |
| densou | I asked via query a while ago :P | 17:50 |
| amy__ | sebsebseb: what next | 17:50 |
| Pirate_Hunter | craftomaniac, definitely | 17:50 |
| luilver | coz_, because using 7.10 doesn't dims | 17:50 |
| sebsebseb | densou: do you know how much RAM she has as well? | 17:50 |
| lanoxx | !firewall | 17:51 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 17:51 |
| coz_ | luilver, however the lspci -v -s readout suggests the video has access to 256 megs | 17:51 |
| tudon | you could start a session with fluxbox and start the compiz configuration program . change the settings exit session and enter gnome again :) | 17:51 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: free | 17:51 |
| luilver | coz_, mmm sure | 17:51 |
| PlasmaSheep | Hey, I need help installing picard.

| coz_ | luilver, are you running compiz on this as well? | 17:51 |

| amy__ | sebsebseb: I've done all of them | 17:51 |
| coz_ | luilver, ah ok | 17:51 |
| densou | VideoRam option became obsolete with UXA , but I heard it might help for i8xx users | 17:51 |

| luilver | coz_, because haven't acelerated graphics | 17:51 |
| jeffreyf | Paddy_EIRE: I guess that means wait and it will work eventually? | 17:51 |
| coz_ | luilver, mm | 17:52 |
| densou | (anyway UXA isn't default in Jaunty) | 17:52 |
| coz_ | luilver, intel driver should work with compiz | 17:52 |

| paulo----- | I'm getting sick of 800x600 | 17:53 |

| lucian_ | then make | 17:54 |
| lucian_ | then what? | 17:54 |
| craftomaniac | lucian_, then sudo make install | 17:54 |
| amy__ | sebsebseb: thats the wrong one | 17:55 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: ok lspci you did that wrong, but you seem to have free there | 17:55 |

| commodore256 | the iphone sdk only works on osx | 18:04 |
| indus | Sephiroth: error 5 is because grub envountered a problem reading data , try running chkdsk in windows | 18:05 |
| amy__ | sebsebseb: ok | 18:05 |

| amy__ | sebsebseb: how would I do that then? | 18:06 |
| indus | Sephiroth: try installing grub to a partition instead of the mbr | 18:06 |
| ThorsonB | briwood1 :S why do u even want Vista | 18:06 |
| Hajuu | briwood1: its just.. not a very good idea really | 18:06 |
| commodore256 | I think the iphone sdk is pre-compiled and there's no source | 18:06 |
| amy__ | sebsebseb: I've not got much experiance with ubuntu yet? | 18:07 |
| Hajuu | If anything run a linux vm under vista, briwood1 | 18:07 |

| amy__ | sebsebseb: can you walk me through the process? | 18:07 |
| Hajuu | [01:14] #questions unable to join channel (invite only) | 18:07 |

| ThorsonB | uhm ok, i think i jsut activated Magnify with Win+R how do i get out of it? | 18:11 |
| Hajuu | so theres no advantage to running windows on linux | 18:11 |
| sebsebseb | amy__: only meant to refer people from here to offical Ubuntu channels, it's the rules. or channels that are specific for their issue | 18:11 |
| briwood1 | 3d not important to me | 18:11 |
| Hajuu | only advantages to running linux on windows in fullscreen | 18:11 |
| indus | real_nick: can you be more specific | 18:11 |
| commodore256 | Microsoft Office | 18:11 |
| Hajuu | not important sure but why cut out functionality for no reason :/ | 18:11 |
| indus | real_nick: you dont have ubuntu on your system, then why do you need a boot loader | 18:11 |
| Hajuu | Thats like me saying oh I dont want sound today so ill take out my sound card | 18:11 |

| WIGGMPk | commodore256: LMFAO, In contrast I would say Outlook 2007 (the entire office suite for that matter) has a lot of growing up to do | 18:12 |
| webpigeon_laptop | amy__, looks like we might be in luck, try extracting that archive and running install.sh | 18:12 |
| real_nick | indus: any idea < | 18:12 |
| ThorsonB | LMAO@ Commodore256 Use SquirlMail or GMail :P who needs outlook/thunderbird | 18:13 |
| indus | real_nick: probably needs a grub reinstall | 18:13 |
| thiebaude | ThorsonB: yep | 18:13 |
| sebsebseb | webpigeon_laptop: I don't think she knows how, since by the sounds of it she is pretty new | 18:13 |
| webpigeon_laptop | make utils... now what package are you | 18:13 |
| WIGGMPk | commodore256: Outlook 2007 has eyecandy that makes it look good.. but has a TON of backend problems, it doesnt play nice with a lot | 18:13 |
| real_nick | indus: how ? | 18:13 |
| indus | real_nick: can you boot into ubuntu?? | 18:13 |
| commodore256 | Remember, If you don't use Firefox, you fail as hard as Windows ME | 18:13 |

| sebsebseb | webpigeon_laptop: well she can be refered to that one if nessarey in here no problem, since offical Ubuntu channel after all | 18:14 |

| Eslu | Linux doesn't detect it as a raid, but as two single drives. | 19:01 |
| commodore256 | When will this 64-bit transision end? | 19:01 |
| Josie | Eslu: raid 0 is a good way to lose ays | 19:01 |
| Eslu | The raid is setupped in the bios | 19:01 |
| renagadex | cabrey: Failed, output bzip2: (stdin) is not a bzip2 file. | 19:01 |

| Hetor | imachine_: are you kidding? | 19:02 |
| Eslu | Josie, so do what do you recommend me? I want better performance with my harddrives if possible, but does it perform better with fake raids? | 19:02 |
| imperfect- | Josie: with 2g of ram you should have started 32bit ;) | 19:02 |
| Hetor | I tried reinstalling screen and deleting .screen-profiles | 19:02 |
| Eslu | Or should i just turn off the raid, run ubuntu on one single drive? | 19:02 |
| Hetor | Didn't help | 19:02 |

| ewsubach | imperfect-: now, any idea how to disable it? | 19:03 |
| Hetor | Myrtti: it shows me nothing but a bash shell when I type "screen" or "/usr/bin/screen" | 19:04 |
| Eslu | Josie: It may be if one of the hard drives fail, but still its not for a company or something as important. Its just for my home, could easily just reinstall. | 19:04 |
| imperfect- | ewsubach: see anything in lsmod that looks like it's supporting it? if so, blacklist that module. | 19:04 |
| Josie | yeah | 19:04 |
| Hetor | Though seems like it actually runs, but I can't see the window switcher and other stuff | 19:04 |

| webpigeon_laptop | DavidePalm, you can install install ubuntu-restricted-extras, you'll get mp3 playback and windows fonts, as well as flash | 19:17 |
| ewsubach | DavidePalm: something like libcss is what you need. the only player i found that works with this is mplayer. then in mplayer, right click and select play dvd. no fancy menu except playing by title sections | 19:17 |

| ewsubach | DavidePalm: you have to install libdvdcss2 | 19:21 |
| DavidePalm | ewsubach encripted dvds = most regular dvds? | 19:21 |

I follow the trail of broken packages and find that the ultimate dependency wants to uninstall a crapload of stuff from my computer. http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/741/screenshotmusicbrainzpi.png | 19:27 |

| ewsubach | gynergie: so you want to copy a bunch of files to one place? | 19:31 |
| gynergie | yes | 19:31 |
| webpigeon_laptop | DavidePalm, sorry, try looking in medibunut for it :P | 19:31 |
| gynergie | give me an exemple please | 19:31 |
| crdlb | mmm4m5m: what desktop environment? | 19:31 |

| mmm4m5m | crdlb: 'xdg-mime' does not help... works only for files. alternatives x-www-browser in /etc is correct | 19:33 |
| UbuntuBoy | im run it now | 19:33 |
| UbuntuBoy | what's the next | 19:33 |
| webpigeon_laptop | UbuntuBoy, after it crashes, the terminal window should then fill with messages, !pastebin them as we'll see if we can find it whats going on. | 19:33 |
| mmm4m5m | crdlb: prefered applications are correct for both users. Also firefox setting "default browser" is yes for both users. | 19:33 |

| UbuntuBoy | ok | 19:34 |
| Flannel | PlasmaSheep: alright. I *think* I've found the package thats causing the removals: http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/libavcodec-unstripped-52 that has some odd depends (it depends on the same package twice, with different versions) | 19:34 |
| ewsubach | DavidePalm: i know you're pain. they make it so hard to do...i remember that what I did was search for the package online and did manual install. it is a bit of trouble but the .deb install is automated | 19:34 |
| Neji123 | hey ppl, if anyone got time I could use a little help | 19:34 |
| gartral | !ask | Neji123 | 19:35 |
| ubottu | Neji123: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 19:35 |
| mmm4m5m | crdlb: yes, gnome-open works. The only link which point to w3m in /etc/alternatives is www-browser (not x-www-browser). | 19:35 |
| Neji123 | ^ | 19:35 |
| crdlb | mmm4m5m: then figure out why the /usr/bin/xdg-open script is not running gnome-open | 19:35 |
| mmm4m5m | crdlb: I need to fix xdg-open, because it is used from lazarus and it does not open in browser. | 19:35 |

| bunson | Hi ubuntians .. quick question .. when i restart my ubu 8.10 system my usb webcam light comes on and stays on untill i unplug it and plug it back in. is there a way to restart the webcam without unplugging it so i can use it? once unpluged and plugged back in the light turns off and the camera works great | 19:36 |
| Neji123 | hehe, okay, well I cant get my sound to work in ubuntu to play mp3 files and stuff, I know the sound works cause I can hear it when i log out, but not on movies or youtube or anything. | 19:36 |
| PlasmaSheep | Flannel: What do I do? | 19:36 |
| crdlb | mmm4m5m: the logic is pretty simple: it checks for KDE_FULL_SESSION and GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID in the environment | 19:36 |
| crdlb | mmm4m5m: make sure the former is not set and the latter is | 19:36 |
| ewsubach | DavidePalm: here it is, dude: http://packages.medibuntu.org/jaunty/libdvdcss2.html download and install :) | 19:36 |

| webpigeon_laptop | UbuntuBoy, that looks fine, | 19:37 |
| Flannel | PlasmaSheep: You might go to #ubuntu-motu and ask them to take a look at it. If nothing else, they may have more luck than I do figuring out why its trying to remove that stuff. | 19:37 |
| bunson | .. the ehci_opi mod form dmesg? | 19:38 |
| ghostlines | does anyone have openvpn working with an existing bridge setup? | 19:38 |
| PlasmaSheep | Flannel: will do, thanks | 19:38 |
| UbuntuBoy | yes it's working now but when im start a firefox session it's freez | 19:38 |
| DavidePalm | ewsubach, I followed the instructions on www.medibuntu.org, and I installed libdvdcss2. I"m restarting right now let's see if it works | 19:38 |
| ewsubach | DavidePalm: cool. good luck! | 19:38 |
| gartral | bunson: lsmod | grep webcam might point you in the right direction | 19:39 |
| bunson | gartral is there a specific mod i should use the rmmod on? | 19:39 |

| Neji123 | I cant get my sound to work in ubuntu to play mp3 files and stuff, I know the sound works cause I can hear it when i log out, but not on movies or youtube or anything. Anyone know what may be causing this, and possible fix? | 19:39 |
| DavidePalm | ewsubach man this is really tough... why not just include all the libs necessary with a video player that you download? | 19:39 |
| ewsubach | DavidePalm: legal reasons. | 19:39 |
| ewsubach | DavidePalm: any software that breaks the encryption on DVDs is technically illegal | 19:39 |
| DavidePalm | well then how do you download a dvd playing software for windows so easily? is that illegal as well? | 19:40 |
| webpigeon_laptop | UbuntuBoy, well try that and see what is says | 19:40 |
| bunson | gartral .. would rmmod on the pwc work? | 19:40 |
| Hodapp | DavidePalm: Well, some of the software can be "licensed". | 19:41 |
| ewsubach | DavidePalm: that's a good question and the answer is I don't know. i don't think it's the software, it's the libraries that decode it. | 19:41 |
| Hodapp | DavidePalm: The moral of the story is that the DMCA is bullshit. | 19:41 |
| raboof | i have an application which is pulling 100% cpu | 19:41 |
| Hodapp | DavidePalm: And in other news, DRM doesn't hurt pirates one bit but it does turn paying customers into pirates. | 19:41 |
| DavidePalm | Hodapp LOL I see | 19:42 |
| raboof | i noticed about 75% is spent in kernel, so i ran it with 'strace' | 19:42 |
| tonyf12 | I tried to install bugzilla3, now my package manager doesn't work. The GUI tells me to run sudo apt-get install -f, and when I do that, I get this output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/195153/ | 19:42 |

| Froogle | setsockopt (SO_DEBUG): Permission denied | 20:06 |
| zleap | ok i got a jaunty install that is massivly slow | 20:06 |
| gartral | how do I revert a version of a program? [in my case, wine] | 20:06 |
| coz_ | ghostlines, if no one here try #linux channel | 20:06 |
| cankoy | tonyf12: package name's mysql-server-5.1 | 20:06 |
| Froogle | yeah it connects to other machines fine | 20:06 |
| Froogle | and recently all the permissions got messed up | 20:06 |
| julius | where can i get the src package that was used for building some binary ubuntu package? ive looked at http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mobile/ppa/ubuntu/dists/hardy/ but the files name Sources.gz, Packages.gz contain no data? | 20:06 |
| Froogle | so I had to redo them for /dev/null and a bunch of /var | 20:06 |
| Froogle | that is why I think it's permissions somewhere | 20:06 |
| mmm4m5m | crdlb: I have few restricted users, separate home dirs.. instead of login or switch user, this is how I do it. I do not know is it wrong, but I like it. | 20:06 |
| Froogle | not sure why root can't do it though :( | 20:06 |
| nperry | I've got an external hard drive which is plugged in all of the time, how can I make it mount at boot, rather than have to yank usb out to force a mount? | 20:07 |
| Froogle | nperry: fstab? | 20:07 |
| bartek | yay I got it :-) | 20:07 |
| === ArQuiO is now known as arquio | ||
| tonyf12 | cankoy: Thanks | 20:07 |
| nperry | !fstab | 20:07 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 20:07 |
| erUSUL | julius: add the deb-src repositorie and do apt-get source packagename | 20:08 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Froogle, its strange, i wouldn't expect a permissions issue to effect it like this, it'd be more likly to not connect to anything or not allow anything to connect to it | 20:08 |
| === milos__ is now known as mandara | ||
| crdlb | mmm4m5m: well, xdg-open's open_generic function seems to do odd things with file:/// uris, but I guess you could artificially export GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID | 20:08 |
| nperry | Froogle, Will the uuid always stay the same? | 20:08 |
| Dethroned | I'm trying to install wolfenstein ET but it says I don't have write permission to save it | 20:08 |
| julius | erUSUL, im looking for a package that was made for hardy in the "ubuntu mobile ppa", but im currently running jaunty...is that a problem? | 20:08 |
| === silver is now known as Guest74797 | ||
| julius | erUSUL, is there no web interface? | 20:08 |
| Froogle | nperry: mount it with user permissions | 20:08 |
| Froogle | I forgot how to do that exactly though | 20:09 |
| erUSUL | julius: packages.ubuntu.com ? | 20:09 |
| Froogle | I think just chmod it when it's mounted | 20:09 |
| nperry | Froogle, any chance of an example? | 20:09 |
| rohan | is there any other native gnome feed reader apart from liferea? liferea hangs too much while trying to update feeds, and it's slow. | 20:09 |
| julius | erUSUL, does not search the ubuntu mobile ppa | 20:09 |
| mmm4m5m | crdlb: another option - for userB, change PATH and put there different odg-open? | 20:09 |
| rohan | also, i want to switch my tabs in gnome-terminal using ctrl-tab and ctrl-shift-tab, but the "Edit -> Keyboard Shortcuts" menu doesn't allow me to do that. any idea why? | 20:09 |
| Froogle | webpigeon_laptop: I think it might have something to the host machine, since this is a openvz guest | 20:09 |
| mmm4m5m | crdlb: I mean, xdg-open (sorry) | 20:09 |
| Froogle | nperry: http://google.com :? | 20:09 |
| Froogle | :/ | 20:09 |
| crdlb | mmm4m5m: that would work, I guess ... | 20:09 |
| crdlb | mmm4m5m: assuming it doesn't run /usr/bin/xdg-open | 20:10 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Froogle, so the host mashine might be preventing the connections... take it there is nothing banned in the host mashine? | 20:10 |
| Sephiroth | I'm trying to install Ubuntu 9.04 onto my computer, so I went in, created a new ext3 partition, set it up as / on install, had an error 5 upon reboot. So I tried it again, and now I'm getting error 17 on reboot. Is there any way to fix an error 17 message when grub is giving me that error? | 20:10 |
| mmm4m5m | crdlb: right !! :) Ok, thanks a lot. | 20:10 |
| Froogle | webpigeon_laptop: I don't know that is the problem, it's a purcahsed vps | 20:11 |
| Froogle | I don't have host axx | 20:11 |
| julius | erUSUL, ah...just read the copying file in some binary package...looks like theres no source code from intel | 20:11 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Froogle, okay | 20:11 |
| Schuenemann | hey, who is using grub2? | 20:11 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Froogle, might be something strange they are doing? | 20:12 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Schuenemann, the very fact my computer boots with ext4 surgests i am :P | 20:12 |
| Froogle | webpigeon_laptop: yeah that is what I suspect, but I want to rule everything out before I hit them up with a ticket. | 20:12 |
| Neji123 | hey just need someone to explain the meaing of: [Testing] [PCI] Card delivered to developers. Completely new architecture. Creative have supplied a data sheet to developers. Development work has started.Preliminary support need testers.The patch is now merged into sound-unstable GIT tree topic/ctxfi branch: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound-unstable-2.6.git.The corresponding alsa-driver snapshot tarball is: ftp:// | 20:13 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Froogle, i'm out of ideas, seems strange though | 20:13 |
| Froogle | webpigeon_laptop: well thanks :) | 20:13 |
| Froogle | I'll keep looking | 20:13 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Neji123, means they are testing whatever driver your looking at and they've put it in an unstable banch for testing | 20:14 |
| Neji123 | so I can download it and try to see if it works? | 20:14 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Neji123, if your insane, you could compile the driver :P | 20:14 |
| Neji123 | no im not ;p | 20:14 |
| nperry | Froogle, this should be alright - UUID=55D123D9E79ABF54 /media/OneTouch 4 ntfs user 0 0? | 20:14 |
| Froogle | uuuuh | 20:15 |
| dury | hi there channel :) | 20:15 |
| Froogle | not sure what is up with the UUID | 20:15 |
| Froogle | is that the dev? | 20:15 |
| Neji123 | im just so confused that my sound works when I logout but not in anything else | 20:15 |
| M4vman | Anyone know anything about PHP Open Chat? | 20:15 |
| Froogle | nperry: usually the line is /dev/harddrive /media/mountpoint ntfs user 0 0 | 20:15 |
| Sephiroth | I'm trying to install Ubuntu 9.04 onto my computer, so I went in, created a new ext3 partition, set it up as / on install, had an error 5 upon reboot. So I tried it again, and now I'm getting error 17 on reboot. Is there any way to fix an error 17 message when grub is giving me that error? | 20:15 |
| nperry | No dev is /dev/sdb1 but ubuntuwiki suggests using uuid | 20:15 |
| Froogle | nperry: yeah that was just an example | 20:16 |
| Froogle | but if the wiki says to use UUID, go for it | 20:16 |
| tntc | UUID is a lot nicer to use. | 20:16 |
| Froogle | see, I am just behind the times | 20:16 |
| dury | to see the distro it's lsb_release -a but there is another way with cat /etc/...... what I miss | 20:16 |
| Sephiroth | Ok, thanks! | 20:16 |
| nperry | Froogle, Thanks for the heads up anyway :) | 20:17 |
| Froogle | dury: cat /etc/issue | 20:17 |
| Sorinello | can somene tell me another good browser for Ubuntu, besides firefox ? I have a project to run, and I have to login from same machine, on the site using diffrent users | 20:17 |

| Sorinello | simultaneousley | 20:17 |
| Sorinello | apt-get install opera ? | 20:17 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Neji123, did you install ubuntu restricted extras? | 20:17 |
| Froogle | not sure | 20:17 |
| Froogle | think you have to get it from the website | 20:17 |
| Neji123 | yes I did | 20:17 |
| Sorinello | okay | 20:17 |
| dury | Froogle: that's right, really appreciate it :D | 20:17 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Sorinello, oprea is not in the repo, it's closed sourse | 20:17 |

| Neji123 | also rebooted my computer but was no difference | 20:17 |

| Froogle | dury: what info are you looking for? | 20:21 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Neji123, run dmesg in terminal, it'll display anything important | 20:21 |

| Eslu | okay ill check gparted btw | 20:24 |
| edbian | Eslu: Yes you want to use gparted. A couple of things to remember: you cannot later partitions that you are mounted on. EXT4 is stable :) | 20:24 |

| edbian | Shaba1: Yes but bare minimum ubuntu will need 2GB plus your files (and the new programs you install) | 20:25 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Neji123, there isn't anything in there that would make me think the sound isn't working :/ | 20:26 |
| M4vman | You won't find it in application's eslu. | 20:26 |
| cedricshock | #math | 20:26 |
| Shaba1 | NO | 20:26 |
| M4vman | I believe it's just a protocol that operates in the background. | 20:26 |
| Neji123 | maybe its something simple that I have forgot to do? Im new to linux and may have missed something | 20:26 |
| Shaba1 | another HD is not a solution | 20:26 |

| Eslu | choose* | 20:26 |
| edbian | Eslu: Not all apps have GUI (like samba) that doesn't mean you can't run it / configure it / use it | 20:27 |

| Shaba1 | Oh hell | 20:27 |
| edbian | coz_: Shaba1 That is correct. If you remove ubuntu completely grub will not be usable anymore and you need to use a windows XP system disk to restore the Master Boot Record. | 20:28 |
| sweet | ok, thx | 20:28 |
| Shaba1 | you mean using grub right coz_ | 20:28 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Stronze, now that is a very very borad term :P, | 20:28 |

| Shaba1 | well wait | 20:28 |
| edbian | Shaba1: ... waiting... | 20:28 |
| Shaba1 | I also have a grub live cd | 20:28 |
| Shaba1 | hmmm | 20:28 |
| Stronze | well the current problem is i enter the wap password and ubuntu changes it to something else when i try to reconnec | 20:28 |
| Shaba1 | that would make it easier would it not? | 20:29 |

| * Stronze is a noob linux user and trying ubuntu for the first time | 20:29 | |
| edbian | Shaba1: Having a grub CD would not help you in any way if you were trying to remove an ubuntu install and reinstall the windows boot loader into the MBR | 20:29 |
| sebsebseb | Stronze: cool | 20:29 |
| Shaba1 | its great Stronze trust me | 20:29 |
| Stronze | what another expert linux user told me | 20:30 |
| sebsebseb | Stronze: wireless is usually a pain to set up though | 20:30 |
| Shaba1 | Well edbian I have gparted on live cd | 20:30 |

| orinoco | anybody know how to enable external speakers in ubuntu? | 20:30 |
| Stronze | sebse- i figured but it detects the connection but wont connect when i try the password | 20:31 |
| gartral | how do I revert a version of a program? [in my case, wine] | 20:31 |
| Shaba1 | I could use gparted to recover/resize the ubuntu partition. but then as coz said the mbr would be wrong and grub would no longer be installed. I coudl then use the grub livecd to restore the MBR could I not? | 20:31 |
| webpigeon_laptop | orinoco what do you mean "enable external speakers"? | 20:31 |
| edbian | Shaba1: But if you are reinstalling the windows bootloader. Which is probably not on your live CD's correct? I understand what you are saying. You can edit the harddrive / MBR with those tools. What you are missing is the actual windows boot loader software. You're XP DVD should have it though. | 20:31 |
| sebsebseb | Stronze: maybe useful and maybe not | 20:31 |

| Shaba1 | ah I seee | 20:31 |
| orinoco | the volumes are up | 20:31 |
| Shaba1 | edbian I am not going to do that now. | 20:31 |
| edbian | Shaba1: If you are simply resizing you won't have a problem. It's when you install grub (and ubuntu) and then try to remove them that you have a problem with the MBR | 20:32 |
| Neji123 | webpigeon_laptop: I got it to work, I changed it from (ALSA) to (OSS) | 20:32 |
| orinoco | the integrated speakers are working | 20:32 |
| Shaba1 | I have to clear out some space on this ntfs hd. but I will put you on notify. | 20:32 |

| edbian | Shaba1: Ok thanks :) I'll be happy to help with whatever you need :) | 20:32 |
| Neji123 | yes well it doesnt work with alsa, I get an error, wait i'll write it for you | 20:32 |
| orinoco | when i connect the external ones to the laptop, nothing happens | 20:33 |
| Stronze | sebse - the cable is to short to is for laptop since its plugged into xbox 360 and vista is running on wireless | 20:33 |

| Shaba1 | ok now tell me this and I know its a general question after I restore the windows mbr will xp see that former ubuntu partition as free space or as a seperate drive? | 20:33 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Neji123, tried using pulseaudio? (which sits ontop of alsa :P) | 20:33 |
| tannersummers | ah...does anyone know how to chancge my firefox text? I installed a ubuntu theme and on some sites that dont use there own font color, i guess it uses the system font color which is a light blue making it impossible for me to see it | 20:33 |
| sebsebseb | Stronze: I don't know, wireless isn't my area | 20:33 |
| tonyf12 | tannersummers: Edit > Preferences > Content > Colours. | 20:33 |
| tonyf12 | Within Firefox | 20:33 |
| Neji123 | yes i tried them all.. OSS is the only thing that works | 20:33 |
| Stronze | away from chat reading on forum | 20:34 |
| tannersummers | tonyf12, no those colors are all right and the text color is white but on some sites ik why but coems out light blue | 20:34 |

| donovan | anyone know if ubuntu natively supports internet connection sharing from a wired connection to wireless?(in other words, connecting another computer to mine and allowing it to access my wifi internet connection) | 20:34 |
| donovan | just curious | 20:34 |
| edbian | Shaba1: I think we're getting confused here. In the shortest answer possible no. Windows XP does not recogniz ext2,3, or 4 partitions. It won't be a problem though because when you reinstalled the XP bootloader it would see the XP partitions and work properly. Why would you be installing the windows bootloader though with your ubuntu install still on the disk?? | 20:35 |
| webpigeon_laptop | donovan, there are help pages on it | 20:35 |
| Neji123 | webpigeon_laptop: the error I get with alsa is: audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=music: Kunde inte öppna ljudenheten för uppspelning. | 20:35 |

| Eslu | Where can i find it? | 20:39 |
| shadow420 | Neji123 so we have to locate the main problem | 20:39 |
| M4vman | type gparted in terminal | 20:39 |
| webpigeon_laptop | Neji123, try changing the setting to pulseaudio though, if it works thats the best possible option to use | 20:40 |
| shadow420 | type sudo gparted | 20:40 |
| Eslu | okay | 20:40 |
| Neji123 | webpigeon_laptop: cant hear anything with pulseaudio, tried everything on the list OSS is the only thing that works :s | 20:40 |
| Neji123 | shadow420: any tips on how to locate it? heh | 20:40 |

| tonyf12 | I can't install bugzilla3 as it says mysql-server-5.1 is installed and complains about downgrading from 5.1 -> 5.0 . If I sudo apt-get remove mysql-server-5.1, it goes back to the bugzilla3 installation and stops because of 5.1 -> 5.0. If I sudo apt-get clean then sudo apt-get update | 20:41 |

| mimcpher | Does anybody know how nvidia's proprietary drivers work with multiple nvidia cards on linux? | 20:42 |
| delmar | Neji123, i had some fun with pulse audio the other day. maybe i can help. | 20:42 |
| erik__ | #the_conquerors | 20:42 |
| Neji123 | delmar: would be great, because I take it the playback on OSS isnt of the highest quality hehe | 20:42 |
| tonyf12 | If I then go back and try install bugzilla3, it complains about the 5.1 -> 5.0 again. | 20:42 |
| coz_ | mimcpher, I dont know for sure but if you are planning something like more than two monitors then you will go up against some issues | 20:42 |
| delmar | Neji123, ok. so what audio hardware do you have? | 20:43 |
| Neji123 | delmar: X-Fi Fatality, I downloaded the drivers from creatives website and they seem to work | 20:43 |
| mimcpher | coz_, I know this isn't trivial to do. But I can't hack the proprietary drivers, so I'd have to give up now. | 20:43 |

| dury | Froogle: http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ | 20:47 |
| delmar | Neji123, i couldn't get my X-Fi to work at all so I sent it back to the supplier. I ended up going back to the on-board audio but also have a c-media chipset USB headset that works nice. | 20:47 |
| Eslu | to* | 20:47 |
| coz_ | mimcpher, for sure and that would require you using xgl I believe and that is no longe developed or supported | 20:47 |
| delmar | Neji123, sorry. didnt realise you had a creative X-Fi. im over creative. they pissed me off. | 20:48 |
| Dethroned | how do i uninstall wolfenstein ET?! i know the location of the folder but i don't know how to delete it. It does not have an uninstall executable | 20:48 |
| Neji123 | delmar: oh alright, well it works good in windows, and I can hear sound in Linux as well but only with OSS. that was what I ment with 'work'. | 20:48 |
| dury | Froogle: it gives you option to type user and pwd | 20:48 |
| delmar | Neji123, so u have the pulseaudio icon on the bar at the top etc? | 20:48 |

| Neji123 | delmar: hmm, dont think so | 20:49 |
| delmar | Neji123, I couldnt get mine to work at all but I think i realised that if it wasn't going to play nice with Alsa, I was probably never going to get it working nicely with Ubuntu | 20:49 |
| Dethroned | tudon: i mean delete...bleh | 20:49 |
| tudon | sudo | 20:50 |

| Neji123 | delmar: Yeah it works like a charm now, VLC and YouTube works as well. | 21:10 |
| |Ryan | Flannel: I downloaded and ran the raw ISO using winRAR. | 21:11 |
| shodan45_ | one is an external firewire samsung 1TB, other internal ata samsung 160GB | 21:11 |
| delmar | Neji123, sweet. | 21:11 |
| |Ryan | Flannel: On windows. | 21:11 |
| Flannel | |Ryan: You ran the ISO? You didn't boot to it? | 21:11 |
| delmar | Neji123, so you had to manually install a creative driver that wasn't part of 9.04 right? | 21:11 |
| Neji123 | delmar: yes, I found it on Creatives website under their normal drivers | 21:11 |
| gartral | how do I revert a version of a program? [in my case, wine] | 21:12 |
| |Ryan | Flannel: It wouldn't let me boot, so I ran the installer, within the ISO which copied the installation files, THEN I rebooted into Ubuntu and it installed it. | 21:12 |
| delmar | Neji123, I wonder if it's newer than the one I couldnt get to work a few months back. | 21:12 |
| Flannel | |Ryan: Alright. Oh, did you do any partitioning when you did this? or is this a wubi thing? | 21:13 |
| furythor | what kind files are on those hard disks ? | 21:13 |
| Neji123 | delmar: It was released the 6'th november 2008 | 21:13 |
| SunnyD | Hey guys! I am looking for an automatic wallpaper switcher. every 5 minutes or so. | 21:13 |
| delmar | Neji123, must be the same driver then. | 21:13 |
| tanath | is there a 'proper'/recommended way to change RWIN on ubuntu (and have it persist)? | 21:13 |
| delmar | Neji123, ah I remember. the card wasnt supported by that driver. | 21:14 |
| tanath | i want to optimize my connection | 21:14 |
| furythor | How I can disable the compiz if I am not able to see more than white screen after logging in ? | 21:14 |
| |Ryan | Flannel: Yeah! I used wubi. However, I created 2 separate partitions in Windows. | 21:14 |
| sebsebseb | SunnyD: gbackground | 21:14 |
| SunnyD | sebsebseb: il fonctionne bien ? | 21:14 |
| |Ryan | Flannel, one sec, Apparently I'm not an administrator. | 21:14 |
| timmy | @SunnyD It's included in vanilla KDE, or else use drapes. There's also some bash scripts on Google, if drapes doesn't work out | 21:14 |
| |Ryan | Flannel: I'm gonna log. | 21:14 |
| sebsebseb | SunnyD: what? | 21:14 |
| SunnyD | timmy: thanks\ | 21:14 |
| Flannel | |Ryan: Alright, well, if you're not in the admin group, we can fix that. But it'll take a reboot. | 21:15 |
| delmar | Neji123, yeah im sure that was it. the card was the X-Fi Xtreme Audio and it wasn't supported by the beta driver. | 21:15 |
| shodan45_ | furythor: the external drive is one big XFS partition, the files are images of 2 ext3 partitions, and 1 reiserfs | 21:15 |
| SunnyD | sebsebseb: with your name, i thought you were from quebec | 21:15 |
| sebsebseb | SunnyD: nope | 21:15 |
| delmar | Neji123, thats why I had to give up. | 21:15 |
| Neji123 | delmar: oh but it isnt a beta driver now, its 1.00 | 21:15 |
| sebsebseb | SunnyD: also this channel is meant to be English only by the way | 21:15 |
| SunnyD | sebsebseb: thx | 21:15 |
| timmy | I'm in gparted running off a Live CD right now, trying to resize my partitions, and there's a little line between my Windows partition and swap, and no amount of resizing or moving will let a partition cross it. What gives? | 21:16 |
| sebsebseb | !fr > SunnyD | 21:16 |
| ubottu | SunnyD, please see my private message | 21:16 |
| furythor | Shodan45_ then it can be due different file systems used, since they are different in capablities. | 21:16 |
| |Ryan_ | Flannel: I can;t login as root from the login screen | 21:17 |
| furythor | but if you move from disk to another, process is always as fast as slowest disk is reading ... | 21:17 |
| sebsebseb | SunnyD: your name seems to be after a drink | 21:17 |
| delmar | Neji123, yep. think I had a go with that one. was just looking on my system for the download but... i musta got rid of it. | 21:17 |
| SunnyD | sebsebseb: hey brother, where does gbackground install to ? | 21:17 |
| mikejet | How does x-chat put an icon in the top right toolbar? | 21:17 |
| cankoy | tonyf12: did you manage a successful apt-get update? try it after removing bugzilla (and mysql-server) | 21:17 |
| Flannel | |Ryan_: No, Ubuntu doesn't use the root account. If you're not in the admin group (which is weird), we can fix that, but it'll require a reboot | 21:17 |
| tanath | SunnyD, i'm pretty sure compiz has the ability built in | 21:17 |
| SunnyD | tanath: i cant use compiz | 21:18 |

| Flannel | |Ryan: Reboot the computer (restart it), and then after the windows bootloader screen, you'll choose Ubuntu (which actually boots you to GRUB) and the grub menu is hidden by default, so you'll have to push escape at this point, and then choose "recovery console" Do you have a second computer you can be online with while doing this? or should I give you all the instructions now | 21:19 |

| Lucifer_Cat | hey folks. i am running ubuntu netbook remix on my netbook, and for some reason, the top taskbar is not available. and all the windows open with thier top bar out of the frame | 21:57 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, there are lots of programs to maintain, you can help out if you want ;) | 21:57 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: was downloading a couple of stuff, and my space runs out | 21:57 |
| pcgenius | Slart:yes you right | 21:57 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: how much space do you have? | 21:57 |
| jdu | which is best: qemu or virtualbox for running xp on ubuntu? | 21:57 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, last i checked there were around 25,000 packages and each package needs a maintainer | 21:57 |
| ARMENIAN | cabrey: ohh, hmm, well I'm no programmer or anything but how could i help? | 21:57 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: free space? Right now, some 300 mb, but a couple of minutes ago 0 bytes. | 21:57 |
| picca | jdu: virtualbox | 21:57 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: yeah how big is your partition? | 21:58 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, you don't need to be a programmer, but you 'adopt' a program, if you will | 21:58 |
| jdu | picca: any particular reason? | 21:58 |
| pcgenius | Slart:but it can be done if you have a eariler package sepreatly | 21:58 |
| picca | jdu: seems to run faster for me, and very easy to setup | 21:58 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: I'm on a Wubi system. I guess it's like 5 GB | 21:58 |
| ARMENIAN | cabrey: ohh, ok, like keep tabs on updates or w.e. | 21:58 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, also you have to learn how to package debs, but it is actually pretty easy once you get good at it | 21:58 |
| hou5ton | I posted this question in the forums 5 days ago ... but no responses. I'm using Jaunty on a laptop, dual monitor to the LEFT. When I go to System/Display and configure screens as such, it makes the monitor on my LEFT the main screen. | 21:58 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: what's your set up? I mean does not sound that good, when you run out of space after a few downloads. | 21:58 |
| ARMENIAN | cabrey: is there a page you can direct me to with some info? | 21:58 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: oh Wubi hum | 21:58 |
| Lucifer_Cat | how do i get to the administrative tools if the taskbar is not visible? | 21:59 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, to contributing or packaging debs? | 21:59 |
| Slart | pcgenius: true.. it might work if the previous package is in the cache too..not sure though.. but you can install an earlier package using dpkg too, if you just download the deb | 21:59 |
| ARMENIAN | cabrey: both, if possible | 21:59 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: but I had a normal installation, had the same problem (hence started using Wubi). I had like, 50 GB on that one! But yeah, it's true, I had tons of movies | 21:59 |
| jdu | picca: thanks | 21:59 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: but it could really take you by surprise at times! | 21:59 |
| bazhang | !contribute | ARMENIAN | 21:59 |
| ubottu | ARMENIAN: To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate | 21:59 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, alright, i have to look around for documentation on packaging debs, but in the meantime, see above | 21:59 |
| pcgenius | Slart:yes we can do this using dpkg -i <name of package> | 21:59 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: well I am glad Wubi has worked out for you without experiencing any weird can't boot it issues and such, but stuff like that can happen, which is one of the few or so reasons, why a lot of more experienced Ubuntu users, woudn't recommended Wubi | 21:59 |
| ARMENIAN | cabrey: ok, thanks | 22:00 |
| picca | jdu: np | 22:00 |

| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: I've been using a normal installation for like, 2 years, Wubi for 3 or 4 months, I've noticed absolutely no difference (except it messes up my hostname, but I haven't bothered to fix that) | 22:00 |
| myself | what is this network called | 22:01 |
| erpo | Text is missing from Openoffice's buttons and dialog boxes. Sometimes when I mouse over buttons the text comes back. Sometimes when I mouse over buttons where there is no text, the text reappears. Sometimes when I minimize a window and then restore it, some of the missing text is displayed, and sometimes not. | 22:01 |
| erpo | Suggestions? | 22:01 |
| bazhang | !freenode > myself | 22:01 |
| ubottu | myself, please see my private message | 22:01 |
| ARMENIAN | bazhang: thanks :) | 22:02 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, here we go: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete | 22:02 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: well it will run slower than a real proper install when Windows is not fragmented properly, espesailly if that real Ubuntu install is using Ext4. If something really bad happens to Windows, then it will probably happen to Wubi, as well. However in my eyes Ubuntu with Wubi is better than no Ubuntu at all. | 22:02 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, you can also use checkinstall to make it even easier | 22:02 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: above when Windows is fragmented it might make Wubi run slower | 22:02 |
| Dr_Willis | I perfer to run Ubuntu in 'virtualbox' instead of in wubi. | 22:03 |
| Sorinello | how can I find something in some teext files ? | 22:03 |
| ARMENIAN | cabrey: ok ill take a look :) | 22:03 |
| Sorinello | i mean not file names, text in text files | 22:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Sorinello: the grep command is designed for that task. | 22:03 |
| Sorinello | thanks | 22:03 |
| guntbert | erpo: you've been told in #openoffice.org waht you should do | 22:03 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: also if something happens to Wubi where it won't just boot, you can't just put in a Live CD, and access your files, which is something you can do, with a proper partitioned install | 22:03 |
| erpo | guntbert: I left that channel. Is there a channel log? | 22:03 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: ext4? Hmm... haven't tried it. So it's fast, eh? To be honest, I haven't noticed much difference. But now that I know what the problem is, I'll happily go back to my normal installation! | 22:04 |
| guntbert | erpo: rejoin, I'll repeat for you | 22:04 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: Ext4 will be the default file system in Ubuntu 9.10, but people can have it now as well. | 22:04 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: it's rather stable now | 22:04 |
| tuxFan | how do I remove apt sources? | 22:04 |
| erpo | guntbert: I will. Thank you. :) | 22:04 |
| Sorinello | Dr_Willis: can you give me a example ? i want to scan throught multiple files | 22:04 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: hey, can't you use a Live CD with Wubi? I mean, you like, cd into C: and go into ubuntu or something, and your files should be there, right? | 22:04 |
| Dr_Willis | Sorinello: grep is documented in its man pages and in 10000000000's of web sites | 22:05 |
| Dr_Willis | grep pattern filename | 22:05 |
| bazhang | tuxFan, comment them out using # in /etc/apt/sources.list | 22:05 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: well yeah, but a Live CD can't just access the wubi file, that it puts into Windows | 22:05 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: it can only access real proper partitions | 22:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Sorinello: theres books written about grep and its companion tools awk and sed. :) | 22:05 |
| texasjack | To NumLock initiate active on shell (bash), just using 'numlockx'? | 22:05 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: Ubuntu 9.04 with Ext4, boots much quicker than with Ext3 | 22:06 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: Oh. I've actually been putting symlinks in my Wubi partition to my actual files in the normal partition! So yeah, not much of a problem there. Anyway, thanks a lot for your help! I'll try to delete a couple of files now | 22:06 |
| Jimmey | I have a trailer in 720p in .wmv format - How can I convert it to as close quality in .avi with ffmpeg? | 22:06 |
| _rowena_ | reenode.net | 22:06 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: when you do your next partitioned install, a seperate home is probably a good idea | 22:06 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: I don't suppose you could *change* the filesystem on an installation, could you? | 22:06 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: 12GB or so for / and big seperate home, and sure a swap | 22:07 |
| chachin | yo | 22:07 |
| cabrey | Jimmey, #ffmpeg is well versed in video formats and encoding options, try that channel for an optimal conversation | 22:07 |
| cabrey | conversion* | 22:07 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: yeah, I do have a separate /home, but it got clogged up! Was torrenting something | 22:07 |
| Jimmey | cabrey, will do. Thanks | 22:07 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: well wubi I think is bsically a Ext2 partition, can't change wubi's filesystem or whatever it is, to something else. | 22:07 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: Ext3 can be converted to Ext4, but it won't be quite the real thing | 22:08 |
| edbian | sebsebseb: What exactly do you lose by converting? | 22:08 |
| LaHire | Hi | 22:08 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: no, I'm not gonna use Wubi anymore, I'm just using it as a temporary system. Now I know what the problem is, I can go back to my original installation. But how do I convert my Ext3 to Ext4? | 22:08 |
| patrik | Hi, I'm having some trouble install 8.04 from a USB stick. I drops me of at the initramfs and says: "EXT3-fs: Unrecognized mount option..." any ideas? | 22:08 |
| Jimmey | y | 22:08 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: is it risky? | 22:08 |
| JasonX | how do i stall a tar.gz theme? | 22:08 |
| cabrey | sofiankrt, not risky, you just won't reap the full benefits of the ext4 filesystem | 22:09 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: not sure how up to date the release notes are for 9.04, but it explains there, how to convert and such. | 22:09 |
| magician0617 | jasonX do you have gnome looks enabled | 22:09 |
| CSSnub | In a script I want to store fortune output to a variable. What does that line look like? | 22:09 |
| JasonX | magician0617 good question :S | 22:09 |
| sofiankrt | cabrey, sebsebseb: ok, thanks a lot! | 22:10 |
| magician0617 | JasonX sorry i meant ubuntu looks | 22:10 |
| CSSnub | fortuneoutput=fortune | 22:10 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: I said stable sure, but probably more stable with the proper 2.6.30 kernel which will be in 9.10 | 22:10 |
| JasonX | magician0617 good question again | 22:10 |
| LaHire | Is there a way to control the CPU fan and tell it to keep cooling instead of reading the temperature of the system? | 22:10 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: so I might as well wait for that? | 22:10 |
| JasonX | magician0617 how do i tuirn that on | 22:10 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: 2.6.28 and 2.6.29 have some patches or whatever. | 22:10 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: it's not worth it to convert now? | 22:10 |
| cabrey | sofiankrt, IMHO you should wait for 9.10 and do a clean format | 22:10 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: well the Fedora 11 people think Ext4 is really stable now, hence why there distro will use it by default, but when it comes to the more cutting edge stuff, Ubuntu is basically always a bit behind distros such as Fedora | 22:11 |
| magician0617 | JasonX go to add remove and search for it if it is not there go to your package manager and search for it. Enable it and I will explain the rest once it is done | 22:11 |
| edbian | sofiankrt: You won't get ext4 until you either convert your ext3 or reinstall the os on an ext4 partition. Waiting for ubuntu 9.10 and upgrading will not make it ext4 | 22:11 |
| tuxFan | I try to add a link in software sources -" deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/transmissionbt/ubuntu <ubuntu_release_name> main" but its broken and I cant remove it , even worst its not listed in there any ideas? | 22:11 |
| sagredo | Hi. My Jaunty install just completely crapped out on me. I can't even boot into recovery mode - I'm in a Live CD now, can anyone help me check my disk for errors or direct me to error logs where I could troubleshoot this futher? | 22:11 |
| eslu | Anyone here that could help me with Samba? I have problems sharing folders without getting the login propmt? | 22:11 |
| eslu | prompt* | 22:11 |
| bazhang | tuxFan, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list place # in front of sources you wish not to be read; save and close, then sudo apt-get update | 22:11 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: I am currently running 9.04 with / as Ext4, my former home partition as Ext3, and another data partition as Ext3 | 22:12 |
| edbian | sebsebseb: What do you miss by converting ext3 to ext4? I hear all the time that it is not the same as a fresh ext4 partitioning but why?? | 22:12 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: I think the main thing is to have / in Ext4 :) | 22:12 |
| cabrey | edbian, ext2 -> ext3 was a minor change, but ext3 -> ext4 was a large rewrite | 22:12 |
| cabrey | edbian, hence you | 22:12 |
| sofiankrt | cabrey: yeah, I've always had this question. So okay, I've got my files, Music, Documents, etc, which I can easily back up. But what about the other things? My firefox bookmarks? Pidgin logs? Compiz settings? Is there an easy way to move all this stuff into another system without copying the whole /home? | 22:12 |
| bazhang | tuxFan, please keep it in channel (ie not PM) | 22:12 |
| sagredo | Hi. My Jaunty install just completely crapped out on me. I can't even boot into recovery mode - I'm in a Live CD now, can anyone help me check my disk for errors or direct me to error logs where I could troubleshoot this futher? | 22:12 |
| JasonX | magician0617 i am searching for "gnome looks right" | 22:13 |
| cabrey | edbian, hence you're trying to convert an entirely different filesystem to a new one without losing data, so they're have to be some features disabled | 22:13 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: so basically, the good thing about Ext4 is booting speed, right? No other noticeable advantage? | 22:13 |
| kbrosnan | sofiankrt: ~/.program name for the most part | 22:13 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: Pidgin the .purple folder can just be copied and used on a new install no problem | 22:13 |
| cabrey | edbian, FS's can become quite complex, and its a bit offtopic | 22:13 |
| kbrosnan | sofiankrt: for example firefox info at http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information | 22:13 |
| magician0617 | JasonX Search for Ubuntu Looks (my bad I told you the wrong thing) | 22:13 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: Firefox and Thunderbird and such well, it's not quite as simple as just copying the profile, and having the new install picking up on it no problem. Ext4 is better with bigger files as well | 22:13 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: is there no program which compiles all this stuff for you? There should be some sort of "important info backup" program out there | 22:13 |
| thiebaude | sofiankrt: : i notice it use a few less system resources for me | 22:13 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: there are backup programs | 22:14 |
| sebsebseb | !backup > sofiankrt | 22:14 |
| ubottu | sofiankrt, please see my private message | 22:14 |
| JasonX | magician0617 no "ubuntu looks" found in ad/remove | 22:14 |
| eslu | Anyone here that could help me with Samba? I have problems sharing folders without getting the login prompt? | 22:14 |
| sofiankrt | thiebaude: when installed on /? So there are no advantages to using it on /home? | 22:14 |
| edbian | sofiankrt: All of those settings and stuff are in /home They + your personal files are "the entire home" | 22:15 |
| magician0617 | JasonX go to system>administration>synaptic package manager and look there | 22:15 |
| tuxFan | bazhang find it , but how do I open it as superuser? | 22:15 |
| thiebaude | sofiankrt: i only installed it on / then formatted / | 22:15 |
| ARMENIAN | cabrey: so basically, I would package a file and submit it, right? | 22:15 |
| sofiankrt | edbian: but there are a few things on my /home that it'd just be wasteful to backup, right? Isn't there a program that filters these out? | 22:15 |
| bazhang | tuxFan, gksudo gedit (gksudo for graphical apps) | 22:15 |
| ARMENIAN | a program* | 22:15 |
| DsBoy | hi can i use ubuntu on linux.nds | 22:15 |
| gartral | !sudo | tuxfan | 22:15 |
| ubottu | tuxfan: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 22:15 |
| sebsebseb | edbian and I guess you as well sofiankrt no I am not saying go and put on the 9.10 alpha2 ,but yes go to the ext4 as default section on this page. http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/karmic/alpha2 | 22:16 |
| sofiankrt | thiebaude: ok, I'll try Ext4ing / when 9.10 comes out | 22:16 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: you can do / now | 22:16 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, yes, you would become a maintainer of that package and it would be on you to update it so people don't come in here asking why packages are out of date ;) | 22:16 |
| rski | hello i would like to use the ext atime option | 22:16 |
| thiebaude | sofiankrt: yea, on 9.10 its default | 22:16 |
| rski | what's the de facto guide to follow | 22:16 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: and it's not risky? | 22:16 |
| rski | i dont want to screw anything up :) | 22:16 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: as for /home in Ext3 well that's ok for now | 22:16 |
| DsBoy | can i use ubuntu on Linux.nds ? | 22:17 |
| thiebaude | sofiankrt: i use it on the whole drive | 22:17 |
| eslu | Anyone here that could help me with Samba? I have problems sharing folders without getting the login prompt? But i dont have any problems with login prompts when i enter the computer at Network in Windows? | 22:17 |
| rski | DsBoy: what's that | 22:17 |
| tuxFan | bazhang , killer | 22:17 |
| Myrtti | DsBoy: what's that? | 22:17 |
| tuxFan | thax man | 22:17 |
| DsBoy | a linux homebrew | 22:17 |
| voracious | I have two nic, both works. But while I use them together, it is not working | 22:17 |
| ARMENIAN | cabrey: ok, makes sense, but in theory, couldn't a person who wanted, put malicious code in the program then compile it and submit it? | 22:17 |
| rski | whats a linux homebrew | 22:17 |
| voracious | ifconfig displays only one nic, but not other | 22:17 |
| rski | sounds like a beer | 22:17 |
| DsBoy | For ds | 22:17 |
| scott\ | mmm beer | 22:17 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: I think Ext4 is fine in 9.04, just if a later kernel gets installed maybe need Grub 2 installed really | 22:17 |
| voracious | how to enable both nic??? | 22:17 |
| gartral | !beer > rski | 22:18 |
| ubottu | rski, please see my private message | 22:18 |
| ikonia | sebsebseb: what are you talking about ? | 22:18 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, there are always testers and plus, we would hope that those people wouldn't do that and if they did, there would probably be legal consequences | 22:18 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: ok, there's another problem. Just before I got the 0 bytes thing, I was apt-getting a flight simulator. So I tried doing sudo apt-get remove and autoremove, but it didn't change anything. How do I know it's been completely removed? | 22:18 |
| CSSnub | I want to store the entire output of fortune to a variable in a script. Something like $fortvar=$( fortune ) only one that works. :) Any help? | 22:18 |
| Myrtti | DsBoy: I've never heard of such | 22:18 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: just stay with Ext3 for now probably easier | 22:18 |
| carpii | try uhm a=`fortune` ? | 22:18 |
| ARMENIAN | cabrey: ok, that's good, especially since there are testers | 22:18 |
| sagredo | how do I mount my laptop's harddrive from the Live CD so I can backup the data before a fresh install? | 22:19 |
| ryoushi19 | K, I've been having the same problem for about a week now, and not one update, post, or message has helped. It's completely crippled my computer to the point that I can't even log in. Every time I log in, it tells me the X server is already running on display 0:. It asks me if I want to start it on a different display number. If I say yes, it goes back to gdm and tells me when I log in the same error, except with :1 an | 22:19 |
| ryoushi19 | d so on. If i say no, it just gives me the same error. This should never happen in a mainstream OS, ever, and I'm completely disgusted by the fact that it's stayed a problem this long. Any solutions? Anyone? | 22:19 |
| CSSnub | fortune is the operation that returns the string I want to store | 22:19 |
| thiebaude | sofiankrt: then when you upgrade to 9.10 later this year ext4 will be default | 22:19 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, you can practice packaging with your own PPA | 22:19 |
| carpii | CSSnub, yeah that works | 22:19 |
| CSSnub | oh ok | 22:19 |
| carpii | a=`fortune` echo $a | 22:19 |
| CSSnub | ty :) | 22:19 |
| carpii | backticks though, not single quotes | 22:19 |
| sofiankrt | thiebaude: when I upgrade the system, it'll automatically convert my filesystem? Or do I have to do a fresh install? | 22:19 |
| CSSnub | ah ok | 22:19 |
| ARMENIAN | cabrey: yeah I'm going to give it a try now with specto :D | 22:19 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: you need to do a clean install for proper Ext4 support. so if your clean install is Ubuntu 9.10 well it does Ext4 by default | 22:20 |
| DsBoy | someone can i use ubuntu on Linux.nds ? | 22:20 |
| thiebaude | sofiankrt: yep as sebsebseb is saying | 22:20 |
| sofiankrt | sebsebseb: but does an upgrade attempt to change the file system? | 22:20 |
| sebsebseb | sofiankrt: no | 22:20 |
| Darael | sofiankrt: nope. | 22:20 |
| ikonia | Darael: could you expand on your question please ? | 22:21 |
| ARMENIAN | cabrey: but, wait, if theres a .deb package on their site, doesn't that mean there's a compiled package ready to go already? | 22:21 |
| DsBoy | can i use ubuntu on Linux.nds ?v | 22:22 |

| stealth- | A wine program is saying I have only 4gb of disk space left and wont allow me to install a program since it requires 5 gb. I have, in reality, over 100 gigs of extra space. Why is this happening? | 22:23 |
| cabrey | ARMENIAN, i'm not exactly sure in those situations, but you might be able to | 22:23 |

| ikonia | chachin: 1.) wtf is not needed - we know what it means and don't need to see it, 2.) it's been a large channel for years now | 22:27 |
| ikonia | DsBoy: do not ask about it again please. | 22:27 |
| edbian | DsBoy: what is DSLinux? | 22:27 |

| cabrey | mlissner, bash script? | 22:28 |
| liufeng | thanks | 22:28 |
| mlissner | I'm trying to do message=$(cat /dev/stdin) | 22:28 |
| mlissner | Unfortunately though, when I do that, it removes the newline characters. | 22:29 |
| mlissner | cabrey: yep | 22:29 |
| edbian | mlissner: $ goes in front message to make it a variable right? | 22:29 |
| DsBoy | how change my usr password? | 22:29 |

| cabrey | mlissner, #bash is fantastic for scripting help :) if you don't get any help here | 22:29 |
| mlissner | edbian, I don't think so, when assigning variables, right? | 22:29 |
| DsBoy | Where | 22:29 |
| IRConan | mlissner: you're right | 22:30 |
| mlissner | cabrey: good to know. Hadn't tries that yet. | 22:30 |
| stealth- | DsBoy: from the terminal: passwd or use the users and groups program in System>administration>Users and groups | 22:30 |
| edbian | mlissner: I'm not sure that was 1/2 guess :) try #bash | 22:30 |

| cabrey | Chaorain, you might want to try an xfs specific channel | 22:37 |
| cabrey | Chaorain, i've sent people to #xfs before and they've gotten their issues resolved | 22:37 |

| cabrey | Dr_Willis, yea i think ext4 & btrfs are going to dominate | 22:39 |
| cowgarden | hi, win7 comes without the InternetExploder in Europe, because they may not include it. Is Ubuntu allowed to include Firefox because it's not their prosuct or because Ubuntu is free? | 22:39 |
| edbian | cowgarden: I believe it is because ubuntu is not a monopoly :) | 22:40 |
| sebsebseb | cowgarden: Ubuntu can include Firefox no problem, because it's not Debian :d | 22:40 |
| Dr_Willis | cowgarden: because theres no law saying it cant include it. :) | 22:40 |
| _dr | hi, is there someling like a changelog for beta and daily snapshots? | 22:40 |
| thiebaude | cowgarden: and ubuntu doesn't own firefox | 22:40 |
| Piccolo1 | Have a blank screen after installing Nvidia driver 96.43.11 and reboot. Using Recovery boot to repair. Suspect setting issue. Please advise. | 22:40 |
| Walex | cowgarden: Ubuntu includes several different browsers, you can use any of them | 22:40 |
| Chaorain | cabrey, thanks have you tried http://www.ufsexplorer.com/ before? | 22:40 |
| cowgarden | Walex, no, just Firefox is preinstalled | 22:40 |
| PhotoJim | cowgarden: it's also really easy to install other browsers like Epiphay. Windows doesn't natively let you install other browsers directly. they have to have their own installation utilities to install. | 22:41 |
| cabrey | Chaorain, nope, only stick to the ext{x} series | 22:41 |
| cowgarden | PhotoJim, thats right | 22:41 |
| cowgarden | btw, whats a good lightweight browser? (a bit more advanced than link2) | 22:41 |
| cabrey | cowgarden, graphical? | 22:41 |
| sebsebseb | cowgarden: Windows 7 without IE8 I am not sure about that | 22:42 |
| orrie | cowgarden: for console? lynx. | 22:42 |
| cowgarden | cabrey, yes | 22:42 |
| cowgarden | orrie, grafical :) | 22:42 |
| orrie | i saw that ;) | 22:42 |
| cabrey | cowgarden, well the chrome preview is fantastic and blows FF away | 22:42 |

| cabrey | cowgarden, but there is also epiphany | 22:42 |
| meanburrito920_ | strangely enough, all my keys work fine without unlocking it | 22:42 |
| sebsebseb | cabrey: still better to promote Firefox, beause of browser market share reasons | 22:42 |
| cowgarden | cabrey, I fear chrome :) | 22:42 |
| cabrey | cowgarden, why? | 22:43 |
| tuxFan | thank you for the help, Cya peace | 22:43 |
| cabrey | sebsebseb, no as long as IE doesn't have it, i dont care who does | 22:43 |
| wandering | I'm sorry to bother you with such a trivial question, but the first time I installed 9.04, my wireless was working, when I reinstalled the system it now has it listed as an unknown device. There is traffic coming, but it doesn't recognize it as a wireless device | 22:43 |
| calc | cowgarden: google is going to eat your brain ;-) | 22:43 |

| cowgarden | calc, yea, I is my brain by now /me is using gmail | 22:43 |
| thiebaude | google is open source | 22:43 |
| cowgarden | thiebaude, chrome, not google :) | 22:44 |
| cabrey | cowgarden, erm well chromium is the open source version of chrome if you prefer that | 22:44 |

| hou5ton | I posted this question in the forums 5 days ago ... but no responses. I'm using Jaunty on a laptop, dual monitor to the LEFT. When I go to System/Display and configure screens as such, it makes the monitor on my LEFT the main screen. | 22:45 |
| thiebaude | sebsebseb: haha | 22:45 |
| JasonX | hey how do I get this Compiz thing to work ? ? ? | 22:46 |
| edbian | hou5ton: Just flip it? Make the dual monitor to the right? | 22:46 |
| JasonX | I want the cube display | 22:46 |
| edbian | JasonX: Are you getting that fun little "cannot be enabled" message? | 22:47 |
| Stringz | how can we make the dual monitor to the right?????/ | 22:47 |
| hou5ton | edbian: I've tried that ... and it does indeed then make the MAIN monitor the laptop one, which it is supposed to be, but then to go from the laptop monitor to the dual, you actually take the mouse the opposite direction. | 22:47 |
| JasonX | edbian good question, i havent attemped anything as yet | 22:48 |
| nsahoo | can I make evince dual view show both the first and second pages first up? | 22:48 |
| edbian | JasonX: Alrighty then. Before we start what kind of video card do you have? | 22:48 |
| JasonX | edbian but i do know that my screen doesnt rotate and flip like my brothres | 22:48 |
| edbian | JasonX: Well we'll see about that... | 22:48 |
| JasonX | edbian , on a netbook (acer aspireone) | 22:48 |
| orrie | Stringz: If you have an Nvidia, then write nvidia-settings in the terminal | 22:48 |
| gmap | i have 2 ubuntu machines on the same network. how can I ping them by hostname instead of by ip address? | 22:48 |
| edbian | JasonX: I have the very same netbook! | 22:49 |
| edbian | JasonX: And yes compiz works :) | 22:49 |
| calc | gmap: hostname.local | 22:49 |
| edbian | JasonX: Are you running ubuntu 9.04?? | 22:49 |
| JasonX | edbian ok well is there a keyboard combination i need to press to rotate the screens ? ? | 22:49 |
| wandering | does anyone have any tips on getting my wireless recognized? When I look at it as an unknown connection, I see traffic. Yet it doesn't recognize it as a wireless device in the connection manager...which is strange, because on the last install it did :/ | 22:49 |
| orrie | Stringz: Or you could fix this in System > Usersomethingoptions > Display | 22:50 |
| mweichert_ | has anyone noticed any freezing issues with Jaunty? I find that my system is freezing randomly... I think it might be related to evince. | 22:50 |
| Darael | JasonX: you need to change some compiz settings to get a cube instead of a wall | 22:50 |
| edbian | JasonX: Yeah but we have to turn compiz on first. Go to System -> Preferences -> Apperance -> Desktop Effects Tab | 22:50 |
| mweichert_ | it's weird... the system freezes then reboots itself | 22:50 |
| roxie | help: i have the newest version of ubuntu netbook remix and i want to make a custom folder to add to the right side of the panel... i made a folder and dragged it over and so far it displays the folder, but when i click it, it doesnt open... any suggestions? the folder i dragged over is working properly because the files in there are readable, but to access them i have to go through [home] then click on the folder manually... i ju | 22:50 |
| roxie | st want to be able to click on the folder and for it to automatically open for a quicker way to access it... | 22:50 |
| wandering | mweichert_, mine is hella laggy :p | 22:50 |
| Piccolo1 | I'm having problems with Nvidia driver install of 96.43.11. After install it only shows a blank screen on reboot. Can use grub recovery to fix back to default driver. Fresh install. Thoughts? | 22:51 |
| Stringz | hmmmm.. I get that.. thanks | 22:51 |
| gmap | calc do i have configure /etc/hosts on each machine to bind the ip to the hostname? | 22:51 |
| JasonX | edbian ok, and it needs to be "extra" selected right/.? | 22:51 |
| Dr_Willis | roxie: make a script that launches nautilus with the folder name as an argument to open it. perhaps... | 22:51 |
| orrie | gmap: think so | 22:52 |
| leser | worked. Thank you | 22:52 |
| edbian | JasonX: yeah. Does it work or does it error out? (It should work) | 22:52 |
| gmap | orrie, so that means i need static IP's? I cannot use a DHCP router to assign ips? | 22:52 |
| roxie | Dr_Willis: how do you do that??? i am new to ubuntu... | 22:52 |
| Darael | edbian, JasonX: in some cases even "extra only gives the wall rather than the cube | 22:52 |
| JasonX | edbian i have it selected, ok my screen (when i drag it now woobles) | 22:53 |
| edbian | JasonX: They're right but we'll get to that part | 22:53 |
| gaston_ | hola | 22:53 |
| orrie | gmap: You can use DHCP since it binds the host to localhost | 22:53 |
| orrie | or something like that | 22:53 |
| Dr_Willis | roxie: time to learn some shell basics.. make a text file with 2 lines, first one #!/bin/bash, 2nd line nautilus path/to/dir/to/open & | 22:53 |
| edbian | JasonX: Yeah which is badass right? Right. Ok now you need to install the compiz config settings manager from the repos. Do you know how to install software from the repos? | 22:53 |
| Dr_Willis | roxie: or just use the bookmarks feature of nautilus.... thats even easier | 22:53 |
| ibuclaw | roxie, you could create a Desktop Launcher | 22:53 |
| JasonX | edbian i have it selected, ok my screen (when i drag it now woobles) | 22:53 |
| Dr_Willis | for the netbook remix - i disabled that annoyhint netbook interfacce | 22:54 |
| roxie | Dr_Willis: how do i use the bookmarks feature of nautilus??? i am using ubuntu netbook remix | 22:54 |
| JasonX | edbian repo as in synaptic ? | 22:54 |
| Stringz | it's ok orrie. I am using dell... | 22:54 |
| Stringz | I am pretty sure, I don't have nivedia | 22:54 |
| Darael | gmap: some routers wcan be configured to always assign a given MAC address the same IP. It wouldn't bind to hostname, but to network adapter, but that's probably enough | 22:54 |
| edbian | JasonX: Yeah, the repos are accessed through synaptic | 22:54 |
| Dr_Willis | roxie: you are using nautilus as your file manager.. run a file manager.. explore it.. you can add shortcits to the left side panel, or the the bookmarks menus... | 22:54 |
| edbian | JasonX: There are other ways too but synaptic will work fine | 22:54 |
| edbian | JasonX: search: "compiz config settings manager" or something like that | 22:55 |
| ibuclaw | roxie, to add bookmarks, press "Ctrl+D", or go "Bookmarks->Add Bookmark" | 22:55 |
| Darael | edbian, JasonX: the package is "compizconfig-settings-manager" IIRC | 22:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Linux the 'expore and learn OS!' | 22:55 |
| roxie | <Dr_Willis> roxie: you are using nautilus as your file manager.. run a file manager.. explore it.. you can add shortcits to the left side panel, or the the bookmarks menus... | 22:55 |
| edbian | JasonX: Ok now get ready cause the compiz config settings manager (CCSM) is a massive complex GUI for configuring compiz. Each plugin is listed in there and it can be overwhelming at first. | 22:56 |
| Dr_Willis | roxie: yes... add a bookmark... | 22:56 |
| JasonX | edbian ok have the selected repo. and then | 22:56 |
| gaston_ | hola...alguien que hable castellano | 22:56 |
| roxie | Dr_Willis: yes i have done that... now the folder shows but when i click on it, the folder doesnt open | 22:56 |
| edbian | JasonX: You installed it? | 22:56 |
| JasonX | edbian installin Phythin-compiz | 22:56 |
| Dr_Willis | roxie: it opens here for me.. well it goes to the location i guess you can say... | 22:56 |
| Darael | edbian: I realise I'm butting in a lot here, but the "simple-ccsm" might be better if we're just looking for the cube without the enormous levels of control in ccsm | 22:56 |
| gaston_ | alguien que hable español | 22:57 |
| Dr_Willis | roxie: i open a file manager, click on the location in the left panel.. it goes there... | 22:57 |
| edbian | JasonX: get simple-ccsm | 22:57 |
| edbian | Darael: Thank you I have never heard of that! | 22:57 |
| gaston_ | estoy en un aprieto...me puede dar alguien una ayudita | 22:57 |
| Darael | edbian: it adds a "custom" section to the desktop effects setting, with a simplified ccsm | 22:57 |
| JasonX | edbian installing it now | 22:58 |
| edbian | Darael: Awesome thank you! That is perfect! | 22:58 |
| Darael | edbian: and because it depends on the full ccsm, people can get used to it and move on easily if they want more control | 22:58 |
| roxie | i have done the bookmark thing.. but still doesnt work! | 22:58 |
| edbian | Darael: Maybe you want to help JasonX from here on out? I am not running ubuntu (I'm on debian) and I have never seen simple-ccsm before. | 22:59 |
| Dr_Willis | roxie: then you need to clarify what is is doing.. I click on the bookmark and it goes to the location.. You mean to say it dosent go to the location or what exactly? | 22:59 |
| Chaorain | has anyone recovered data from an XFS partition before? | 22:59 |
| JasonX | darael :D hi, so im in synaptic | 22:59 |
| Eloff | how can I get ahold of this fix: "This bug was fixed in the package python-support - 0.8.7ubuntu4" ? | 23:00 |
| Darael | edbian: right then, sure - i'm in Ubuntu at the moment, so it might indeed be helpful | 23:00 |
| edbian | Darael: Thanks :) | 23:00 |
| Stringz | is there anyway to unmount a drive from terminal.. | 23:00 |
| Darael | JasonX: OK, in the small search box at the top, type "simple"ccsm (no quotes) | 23:00 |
| edbian | Stringz: Yes! the umount command! | 23:00 |
| roxie | Dr_Willis: ok i bookmarked a folder [the one i want to add to the 'quicklaunch panel' or whatever its called] and it placed it on the panel... but now when i click it, it doesnt open, it just says 'loading folder' | 23:00 |
| Stringz | tried man mount, but not working | 23:00 |
| edbian | Stringz: umount | 23:00 |
| roxie | Dr_Willis: yes i guess you could say it doesnt go to the location | 23:00 |
| Stringz | what should be the format... | 23:00 |
| edbian | Stringz: umount /dev/hdd | 23:01 |
| Stringz | thanks edbain | 23:01 |
| Darael | Stringz: or sudo umound /path /to/mountpoint | 23:01 |
| JasonX | darael ok simple ccsm and install | 23:01 |
| edbian | Stringz: With the partition number that is | 23:01 |
| Darael | JasonX: aye | 23:01 |
| JasonX | darael ok installed | 23:02 |
| roxie | Dr_Willis: ok i figured it out... thanks!!! i had to change the name bc it had a ['] in it | 23:02 |
| frankS2 | If i want to remove files from FOO.r(0-10) eg. *.01 to *.10 what would the command be | 23:02 |
| roxie | thanks everyone!!! | 23:02 |
| Steffan_ | frankS2: mv FOO.r* ? | 23:02 |
| marcvangend | people, I've read dozens of posts about grub / dual boot / winXP but I still can't get it working. Grub does point at the right windows disk/partition but I get "NTLDR is missing" when win tries to boot... what can i do? | 23:02 |
| tannersummers | how do i install audacious | 23:02 |
| Darael | JasonX: OK. so if you go back to system->preferences->appearence->visual effects, there should now be a "custom" section | 23:03 |
| frankS2 | Steffan_: no that will delete all .r* files i just want from 0-10 | 23:03 |
| JasonX | marcvangenda Use Wubi :P | 23:03 |
| coz_ | tannersummers, sudo apt-get install audacious ? | 23:03 |
| orrie | tannersummers: sudo apt-get install audacious | 23:03 |
| edbian | marcvangend: Are you able to boot ubuntu? | 23:03 |
| orrie | in terminal | 23:03 |
| Stringz | if my drive's mounted under... /media/ should I type it like unmount /media/[HDD DriveName] | 23:03 |
| Steffan_ | frankS2: you can't afaik. | 23:03 |
| Steffan_ | frankS2: why don't you read the man page yourself? | 23:03 |
| frankS2 | ofcourse you can with some regexp | 23:03 |
| tannersummers | ty | 23:03 |
| frankS2 | Steffan_: why dont stop answering | 23:03 |
| edbian | Stringz: No, I am pretty sure you umount the device name. So like for me I would sudo umount /dev/sda1 | 23:03 |
| JasonX | darael ok yes there is, | 23:03 |
| Steffan_ | frankS2: learn yourself :) | 23:03 |
| Steffan_ | frankS2: man mv | 23:04 |
| Darael | JasonX: the "preferences" button under "custom" will get you a config box | 23:04 |
| edbian | Stringz: man umount | 23:04 |
| frankS2 | Steffan_: haha man mv wont tell me regexps you silly fuck | 23:04 |

| Pilela_Iralem | use passwd and set a password then | 23:16 |
| edbian | marcvangend: I do see some confusion. When you install ubuntu and windows xp on 1 harddrive. you replace the NTLDR with GRUB. AFAIK you don't point a bootloader at another bootloader. | 23:16 |
| sagredo | Pilela_Iralem what's the default username | 23:16 |
| Pilela_Iralem | ubuntu | 23:16 |
| marcvangend | edbian: the only thing I can think of now, is that it might be a problem that ubuntu is on an IDE disk, while Windows is on SATA | 23:17 |
| Pilela_Iralem | when logged in as ubuntu, just type passwd and you can set a password | 23:17 |
| sagredo | Pilela_Iralem Thanks this is a really exotic error I'm just wiping the whole system | 23:17 |

| Pilela_Iralem | np sagredo | 23:17 |
| edbian | marcvangend: That really shouldn't matter. Yeah I know they're on separate disks. But you only need 1 boot loader in your entire system. I know that with an all linux system with 2 harddrives you would install GRUB into the MBR of 1 drive and then it is capable of booting system on the other disk | 23:18 |

| Darael | shadiko: you _can_ do an upgrade (should appear in the update manager) but many people recommend a fresh install, especially if you have a separate /home | 23:20 |

| meoblast001 | ouch... hit my knee off a desk | 23:47 |
| Darael | toenail: well, I did it in a terminal with "sudo aptitude install ubuntustudio-desktop", but you can do the same thing in Synaptic. Note that using aptitude would later let you "sudo aptitude remove ubuntustudio-desktop" to get rid of it all if you wanted, but synaptic probably wouldn't. Also note that getting studio this way leaves you with some other stuff not normally in Ubuntu studio from the plain Ubuntu install, like gnome-games | 23:48 |

| meoblast001 | if my mom doesn't like it and wants to switch to windows she can install it herself (i'd love to see her get passed the 3rd installation screen) | 23:50 |

| edbian | SyphonSilent: Just ask your question | 23:52 |
| SyphonSilent | Im trying to install BitchX the irc client | 23:52 |
| geirha | meoblast001: I have my doubts a reinstall will fix it though. Did it suddenly start acting up, after working well for a period? | 23:52 |
| SyphonSilent | and I have NOOO idea how lol | 23:52 |
| SyphonSilent | im new to linux | 23:52 |
| ubuntu | i have foramtted the pendrive to ext2 i want to change it to ext3 | 23:52 |
| SyphonSilent | I just downloaded the tar.gz file | 23:52 |
| FloridaVoter | its probably in the repos | 23:52 |
| meoblast001 | geirha: it just recently did that... watch.. it will be hardware failure... and that would also be my fault because i built the system | 23:52 |
| FloridaVoter | do a google search for Ubuntu bitch x | 23:52 |
| ubuntu | i have foramtted the pendrive to ext2 i want to change it to ext3 | 23:52 |
| FloridaVoter | see if the package name comes up, then in a terminal "sudo apt-get install BITCHXPCKGNAME | 23:53 |
| meoblast001 | FloridaVoter: the package was removed | 23:53 |
| fedel | ? | 23:53 |
| toenail | thanks for the help | 23:53 |
| Flannel | FloridaVoter, SyphonSilent: BitchX is not in the repositories, because it is unsupported upstream, and has a number of rather serious exploits still in it. | 23:53 |
| FloridaVoter | meoblast001: xorg? | 23:53 |
| geirha | meoblast001: It may be a certain application that causes it. Do try to create a new user and see if the problem happens with that new user | 23:53 |
| pcgenius | ubuntu:do you have gparted installed on your system? | 23:53 |
| meoblast001 | FloridaVoter: no... BitchX | 23:53 |
| FloridaVoter | hm | 23:53 |
| FloridaVoter | so if it has vulernabilities | 23:53 |
| FloridaVoter | what are the features that draw people to it? | 23:54 |
| meoblast001 | geirha: by the time i get to the new user dialog it's too late | 23:54 |
| robinp | i suspended my computer - just to see what would happen... but now I can't wake it up - I have taken the quiet and splash options out of my grub however now i just get a black screen with a white cursor. How do I wake my computer ? | 23:54 |
| SyphonSilent | so what is the best irc client for linux then? | 23:54 |
| meoblast001 | i could do it in a terminal i suppose | 23:54 |
| edbian | SyphonSilent: http://lifehacker.com/software/ubuntu/how-to-install-anything-in-ubuntu-231105.php | 23:54 |
| geirha | meoblast001: sudo adduser <username> | 23:54 |
| edbian | SyphonSilent: That is a good place to learn how to install software you've downloaded manually but installing things from the repos is the best method by far. | 23:54 |
| SyphonSilent | ty | 23:54 |
| SyphonSilent | What would you guys say is the best irc client for linux? | 23:54 |
| Pricey | !best | SyphonSilent | 23:55 |
| ubottu | SyphonSilent: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 23:55 |
| ChanTOB | SyphonSilent, Sorry, i don't know about best. | 23:55 |
| Flannel | SyphonSilent: If you're looking for a replacement, check out irssi. | 23:55 |
| Darael | SyphonSilent: it's all about what you want it to do... there's hundreds, but many people find the one installed by default in whatever flavour of Ubuntu they use is fine | 23:55 |
| Pricey | !random | 23:55 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about random | 23:55 |
| ChanTOB | Sorry, i don't know about random. | 23:55 |
| SyphonSilent | I dont think my copy of ubuntu has a default irc app | 23:56 |
| testbottu | SyphonSilent: i use the built in irc client in pidgin. good enough for me | 23:56 |
| SyphonSilent | oh pidgin? | 23:56 |
| SyphonSilent | I thought that was IMing my bad | 23:56 |
| Pricey | testbottu: PM please? | 23:56 |
| FloridaVoter | xchat is nice for me | 23:56 |
| testbottu | it is IM but also irc | 23:56 |
| FloridaVoter | dont forget smuxi | 23:56 |
| FloridaVoter | both dedicated irc apps | 23:56 |
| hou5ton | edbian: I've tried that ... and it does indeed then make the MAIN monitor the laptop one, which it is supposed to be, but then to go from the laptop monitor to the dual, you actually take the mouse the opposite direction. | 23:56 |
| hou5ton | oops | 23:56 |
| hou5ton | I posted this question in the forums 5 days ago ... but no responses. I'm using Jaunty on a laptop, dual monitor to the LEFT. When I go to System/Display and configure screens as such, it makes the monitor on my LEFT the main screen. | 23:57 |
| edbian | hou5ton: Physicall switch the monitors ? | 23:57 |
| edbian | hou5ton: Put the second one on the other side. | 23:57 |
| darthanubis | hou5ton, if using nvidia there is an option to set to the right of the main or left of the main | 23:58 |
| doyox | hi | 23:58 |
| doyox | i'm using ubuntu remix | 23:58 |
| hou5ton | edbian: I've done that too ... but I don't want it over there ... not the way it works in this office. AND, if things were working right, I should be able to have the monitor on any side. | 23:58 |
| sagredo | http://pastebin.com/m3e62257f alright why can't I install openssh-server on the Live CD | 23:58 |
| doyox | and my amarok won't play any song | 23:58 |
| ikonia | !give ikonia a test | 23:58 |
| ChanTOB | Sorry, i don't know about give. | 23:58 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:58 |
| ikonia | !uptime | 23:58 |
| ChanTOB | Sorry, i don't know about uptime. | 23:58 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about uptime | 23:58 |
| SyphonSilent | My screen is all screwed up, how do I fix that? | 23:59 |
| SyphonSilent | like, the resolution isnt as high as it should be and its moved to the right off screen kinda | 23:59 |
| SyphonSilent | I have an nvidia card | 23:59 |
| edbian | hou5ton: Agreed. I have no idea. I have never set up a dual montior system. Maybe get a new office? (j/k) | 23:59 |
| edbian | hou5ton: Sorry, wish I could help more. | 23:59 |
