[02:26] <javatexan> #ubuntu is too busy talking about video games...LOL.  Can someone help...Wine die on me, so i completely uninstalled it and erased the shorcuts out of main menu (so it wouldn't duplicate), but when I install wine now, I get no shortcuts in gnome main menu....
[02:27] <javatexan> is there a way to regenerate the shortcuts in main menu?
[02:27] <paultag> humm, interesting
[02:27] <paultag> javatexan, shucks, I'm not sure. I usually use it on the command line :/
[02:27] <javatexan> I heard from Wine-headquarters that ubuntu generates them
[02:27] <paultag> javatexan, aye
[02:27] <paultag> javatexan, let me see if I can find anything on it
[02:28] <javatexan> thanks paultag....unfortunately my friend google has come up blanks for me.
[02:28] <javatexan> LOL
[02:28] <aveilleux> javatexan: When you delete Main Menu items, they're placed under a "deleted" category in the configuration files, ie. they won't be created again
[02:28] <javatexan> oh
[02:28] <paultag> <3 aveilleux
[02:29] <javatexan> can I delete them out of ther aveilleux?
[02:29] <javatexan> so they will be recreate
[02:29] <aveilleux> javatexan: You can try and dig them out... but the easier way to do it would be to just recreate the WINE shortcuts yourself through the menu editor.
[02:30] <aveilleux> javatexan: I can walk you through that if you would like
[02:30] <javatexan> k...will check it out or try to recreate by hand
[02:31] <aveilleux> javatexan: For reference... the WINE configuration tool is called "winecfg", the "Browse C: Drive" shortcut command is "nautilus ~/.wine/drive_c/", and the uninstallation app is crap so don't bother with it
[02:32] <javatexan> lol, I found out the last one the hard way, that is why I had to reinstall :(

[05:15] <jimboz> hello
[05:15] <Mohan_chml> Hello jimboz
[05:15] <jimboz> anyone know how to adjust the color saturation in ubuntu?
[05:17] <Mohan_chml> you are talking about windows and fonts etc.?
[05:17] <Mohan_chml> jimboz: ^
[05:18] <jimboz> Mohan_chml, yeah, total display saturation... like you'd find in display properties in windows
[05:19] <Mohan_chml> jimboz: look system-> preferences-> Appearance and then click customize and goto font tab
[05:19] <Mohan_chml> I think that will help you (:
[05:20] <jimboz> hrm, i don't see saturation there
[05:21] <AndrewMC> jimboz: System> preferences> monitors
[05:22] <AndrewMC> Try there I'm not in front of my ubuntu box right now to make sure that's what you want so I'm running on memory lol
[05:22] <jimboz> AndrewMC, don't see anything like that
[05:22] <jimboz> http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/img/mediacolorenhancements1.jpg
[05:22] <jimboz> i'm looking for a graphical EQ for my whole display, so OS wide saturation and gamma
[05:25] <AndrewMC> jimboz: http://superuser.com/questions/173123/how-to-change-the-color-depth-in-ubuntu-10-04
[05:25] <jimboz> depth is bit depth, not saturation :)
[05:26] <Mohan_chml> Google is not helping with that ):
[05:26] <Mohan_chml> brb
[05:26] <AndrewMC> jimboz: You might want to try #ubuntu
[05:27] <jimboz> k
[05:43] <bpatel> i need help installing these drivers http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/?n=Downloads
[05:43] <bpatel> i think its asking me to edit the kernal
[05:45] <Mohan_chml> bpatel: I have a question for you. Is your hardware not detected in system-> Administration-> Hardware drivers ?
[05:45] <bpatel> nope
[05:45] <bpatel> it only see one my video card
[05:46] <Mohan_chml> Its not detected? Ubuntu actually checks for drivers and Installs them automatically
[05:47] <Mohan_chml> I Can see install instructions in the link you gave
[05:47] <Mohan_chml> bpatel: ^
[05:47] <bpatel> ya i though thats what it did becaue i can get to the internet from the wired connecton
[05:48] <bpatel> and going from System\Admin\aditional Drivers, it was able to get my video drivers but nothing eles
[05:48] <bpatel> one bit of good news i got bluetooth is working my laptop :-)
[05:48] <Mohan_chml> your wireless driver should be automatically installed
[05:49] <bpatel> am i just missing how to enable the device?
[05:49] <Mohan_chml> click system-> preferences -> network connections and add a wireless device and check for it
[05:49] <Mohan_chml> It surely is installed
[05:50] <Mohan_chml> brb
[06:05] <bpatel> i ran the following command <sudo lshw -C network> and got *-network UNCLAIMED
[06:09] <seidos> bpatel, you might have to load the module manually with modprobe.  run lspci | grep Wireless to find out what kind of card it is
[06:10] <seidos> then maybe we can find what module you need to use it.
[06:11] <seidos> bpatel, if there is no module available for your device, you'll have to use ndiswrapper
[06:12] <seidos> bpatel, but if there is a module, you can just type sudo modprobe modulename and see if it works.  like if you have a realtek 8180 you can type sudo modprobe rtl8180
[06:13] <bpatel> device is Intel Corporation centrino Advanced-N + WiMax 6250
[06:14] <bpatel> i checked ndiswrapper and it looks like my device is not supported http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ndiswrapper/index.php?title=Category:Intel
[06:15] <seidos> bpatel, this might help you:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1529993
[06:15] <bpatel> oh thank god
[06:18] <seidos> well, in summary, try sudo modprobe iwlang
[06:18] <seidos> and if that doesn't work, try turning off the wireless via on/off switch, then turning it back on.
[06:27] <bpatel> according to the form i need to install the microcode, and i got the following instruction http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1529993 do just need to move the file to /lib/firmware via command <% cp iwlwifi-6050-4.ucode /lib/firmware>
[06:30] <bpatel> i am getting (FATAL: mODULE IWLANG NOT FOUND
[06:31] <seidos> bpatel, did you go here yet?  http://intellinuxwireless.org/?n=Downloads
[06:33] <bpatel> yup that is were i went to get the file
[06:34] <bpatel> i am not sure if i installed it correctly
[06:34] <seidos> there is a readme that comes with the .ucode file
[06:36] <seidos> hmmm, i'm not sure
[06:36] <seidos> still reading
[06:36] <seidos> did you install the lucid backports as well?
[06:36] <seidos> bpatel, ^^
[06:37] <seidos> you might need the lucid wireless backports in order to get iwlang.
[06:37] <seidos> i'm not sure what good the microcode is without the module
[06:38] <bpatel> is this the command ?
[06:38] <bpatel> sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic
[06:39] <seidos> bpatel, should work, if that is the name of the package.  looks right to me.  i'm running karmic.
[06:39] <bpatel> brb, might be diconnected for a bit, dont have a switch or a so i need to move the internet cable
[06:40] <seidos> bpatel, i'm thinking that once you cp the .ucode file like you have, then run the modprobe command, it should work
[06:40] <seidos> all right
[06:40] <seidos> bpatel, you can just see if you can ping the gateway
[06:43] <bpatel_> ok im back
[06:44] <seidos> how'd it go?

[15:53] <bobobob> hey guys, does anyone know of a product that just installs a basic os to run VMs and then lets you cycle through VMs with say CTRL-F keys?  Just curious, that would be cool...
[15:53] <bobobob> or opensource project
[15:55] <bobobob> i was installing ubuntu server and saw the VM option and it made me think of that say for a laptop
[15:56] <bobobob> okay, I can tell from the deafening silence that someone has already asked this one.  :D  LOL
[15:57] <hobgoblin> or possibly that there is no-one constantly monitoring the channel :d

[20:12] <kristen> im really REALLY new at this and i think i may have done something stupid. wondering if someone could help
[20:12] <serfus> kristen, talk to us :)
[20:12] <kristen> i cant get my cd rom to run, it makes a start up noise but then nothing
[20:13] <kristen> so like an idiot i just kept clicking on things thinking that it would help. like if i reinstalled every program
[20:14] <serfus> so what's now?
[20:14] <kristen> so now i tried to download my driver for my new printer off the website and it just gives me...well a page of garble
[20:15] <kristen> i just want to resore my system back to june when i got it
[20:15] <kristen> can you help?
[20:15] <serfus> but your printer used to work?
[20:16] <kristen> the printer that presently installed works fine
[20:16] <kristen> its the new one that i cant get hooked up
[20:16] <serfus> oh, you want to restore... hum i'm not sure if it's possible
[20:16] <kristen> ok so what are my options?
[20:17] <kristen> thanks for helping me by the way:)
[20:17] <serfus> i'm confused, what is that you are trying to achieve now?
[20:17] <kristen> im getting rid of my old printer
[20:17] <kristen> and i just bought a new one today
[20:17] <serfus> to install your new printer or to restore your computer?
[20:17] <kristen> the cd rom drive isn't working
[20:18] <kristen> so i cant install the driver for the new printer
[20:18] <kristen> and for some reason i cant download the driver off the webiste either
[20:18] <serfus> what happens when you try to download the driver?
[20:18] <kristen> i just want the cd rom to work and my new printer to work
[20:19] <kristen> ould not open the file /home/kristendecamilla/Desktop/hplip-3.10.6.run using the Unicode (UTF-8) character encoding.
[20:19] <kristen> that
[20:19] <kristen> and the screen is bright red
[20:20] <serfus> how are you trying to run that file?
[20:20] <serfus> just run it
[20:20] <kristen> like i said i tried and it keeps not letting me
[20:21] <serfus> do you know how the check if it's have executing permissions?
[20:23] <kristen> not
[20:23] <kristen> no
[20:23] <kristen> but i can follow directions:)
[20:23] <serfus> right click on the file, then properties and then go to permissions tab, there check the "allow executing file as program"
[20:23] <serfus> i think this should do the trick
[20:27] <serfus> kristen, succeeded?
[20:27] <kristen> i dont know
[20:27] <kristen> how do i find out
[20:28] <serfus> kristen, you did what i said?
[20:28] <kristen> yes
[20:28] <serfus> now just double click on that file
[20:28] <serfus> and run it
[20:28] <kristen> should they be read files or read and write files?
[20:29] <serfus> it should have the x permission
[20:30] <serfus> so you can execute it
[20:30] <kristen> wow
[20:30] <kristen> its working
[20:30] <kristen> now im confused
[20:31] <kristen> what do i do when it saysd this
[20:31] <serfus> kristen, if it's long use pastebin
[20:31] <kristen> it wont let me

[20:34] <Galeo> Hi. I'm currently using wine to install a wireless adpater with the windows drivers, everything goes fine until it says to plug-in my adapter to continue installation. I plug the adapter in, and it says it is not found despite the fact that the adapter is recognized when I type lsusb in cmd.
[20:34] <serfus> Mohan_chml, hehe ya... i suppose you have masses
[20:34] <Mohan_chml> Galeo: Suggestion 1: Never use Wine
[20:35] <Mohan_chml> serfus: :P
[20:36] <Mohan_chml> Galeo: why you like to use Windows Drivers??
[20:36] <Galeo> Mohan_chml : until now, I didn't want to, but I can't get it installed another way, and even friends of mine skilled in Ubuntu can't get it through...
[20:38] <Mohan_chml> Hmmm..! But It is not good to work with Wine as it will corrupt Us. And Can you explain what happened to your wisreless driver in Ubuntu?
[20:38] <Galeo> it is the D-Link DWA-125 wireless n 150 usb adapter, I found a lot of explanations on forums, but it never worked.
[20:38] <Mohan_chml> Galeo: you read about wvdail or something like that?
[20:40] <Galeo> I'll read about it. Thx.
[20:40] <Mohan_chml> Wait
[20:40] <Mohan_chml> Galeo: tell me what you read coz I am tired of googling :D
[20:42] <Mohan_chml> Galeo: If you could explain a bit more, It will be helpful and read http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1563406
[20:43] <Mohan_chml> 46 th and 47 reply sounds that the problem is solved. But idk whether it is your problem
[20:44] <Mohan_chml> serfus: you found anything about Rubyripper?
[20:46] <Mohan_chml> Hmmm..! I was talking all alone >:|
[20:51] <Galeo> msg\ Mohan_chml : sorry, it seems I'm having issues with irc.  May I private msg you ?
[20:51] <Mohan_chml> Galeo: Sure
[20:54] <serfus> Mohan_chml, ya, seems like this is a known problem but i can't find any solution :(
[20:55] <Mohan_chml> serfus: try looking for it =]
[20:55] <serfus> i am! and google is not helping me
[20:56] <Mohan_chml> serfus: sometimes google may fail. But you can find a solution soon ;)
[20:56] <serfus> looks like an awesome tool for ripping, but idk why dosn't like ubuntu or rather ubuntu dosn't like it
[20:57] <Mohan_chml> serfus: try looking for alternate softwares
[21:00] <serfus> there is a bunch of good ripping tools but they don't have some of the features rubyripper has
[21:00] <Mohan_chml> argh!
[21:01] <Mohan_chml> serfus: then design one Ripper by your own ;)
[21:02] <suprengr> serfus: throggen?
[21:03] <serfus> Mohan_chml, sure... the best thing i can do now is to " print "hello world"  " :D
[21:03] <serfus> suprengr, uhm?
[21:04] <suprengr> dvd ripper
[21:04] <suprengr> ... can deal with drm if really wanted as well
[21:05] <serfus> i want to use rubyripper to rip audio not dvd
[21:06] <suprengr> soz... has assumed u  had audio on dvd in need of it
[21:07] <serfus> no. i have audio cd and want to rip it to flac, but it's ok... i used plenty of tools, just having problems with this particular one

[23:06] <earthling_> Is there a gui for laptop-mode-tools ?  and is it ok to install it on a desktop computer?
[23:08] <Mohan_chml> earthling_: I don't think that a GUI is available for that
[23:09] <Mohan_chml> I saw a link about this. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=940612

[23:10] <earthling_> looks good
[23:12] <earthling_> I just installed the laptop-mode-tools, made the hard drive alot quieter :)
[23:13] <Mohan_chml> (:
[23:13] <earthling_> I was looking for weeks for something like that
[23:18] <Mohan_chml> Try searching the Forums before looking at anything earthling_ . You can find solution for all issues =]
[23:21] <earthling_> yeah, I think I found it there
[23:22] <earthling_> other than the hard drive noise, my ubuntu experience has greatly exceeded my expectations
[23:22] <earthling_> in 1.5 months time
[23:24] <Mohan_chml> earthling_: Its worthless saying that Ubuntu is not User friendly, w/o trying it. If you try it, you will never get back to M$ :D
[23:26] <earthling_> I would agree with that
[23:27]  * Mohan_chml needs some sleep. But haz a lot of works to be done :/
[23:27] <earthling_> cya Mohan_chml
[23:28] <Mohan_chml> earthling_: I will be leaving at 5 AM alone =]
[23:28] <Mohan_chml> Its only 4
[23:28] <earthling_> ah ok
[23:29] <earthling_> I think it would be great if there was Ubuntu stores similar to Apple stores
[23:30] <earthling_> where people would find out about ubuntu for the first time and try things out before they do the usb drive
[23:30] <Mohan_chml> earthling_: they are marketing their product for money but we are marketing which we like and want the world to look at it
[23:30] <Mohan_chml> so, we are standing tall ;)
[23:31] <earthling_> there's a certain credibility that goes along with a brick and mortar store
[23:31] <earthling_> among the general public

[23:33] <earthling_> those stores are kindof fun, expensive stuff though
[23:35] <phillw> earthling_: there is a 'ubuntu store', where you can purchase merchandise with with the branding; but I you have a read of http://forum.phillw.net/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=37 that will give you a better idea of what / who we are,
[23:37] <phillw> earthling_: the shop, btw, can be found at https://shop.canonical.com/
[23:38] <earthling_> I recall seeing something on the desktop about that
[23:38] <earthling_> Ubuntu One Store or something?
[23:39] <earthling_> thats for music I think
[23:42] <phillw> earthling_: the on-line store is gradually being developed, it will be a part of the the Ubuntu Software area eventually. I can go dig out the announcement, but it may take me a while :-)
