[15:02] <amenado> frederific-> umm, timing, udev gets screwed up once in a while,  i personally dislike udev
[15:02] <magnetron> ChaosTheory_: sorry, 'links2 -g &'
[15:02] <ChaosTheory_> magnetron: what does that do?
[15:02] <frederific> amenado: ah, ok :)
[15:02] <Starnestommy> ChaosTheory_: starts it in the background
[15:02] <niuq> hi, i need help, i cant enable desktops effects in ubuntu 8.04
[15:02] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: So how do I go there?
[15:03] <Starnestommy> ChaosTheory_: fg?
[15:03] <robg_> niuq: have you visited medibuntu.org ?
[15:03] <xodiak> jochmenDS: You mean under System > Prefernces > Visual Effects - change from Extra to Normal?
[15:03] <niuq> robg_: mmm noup
[15:03] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: Sorry, what?
[15:03] <ePax> niuq: By default deskop effects are enabled if you have composit on.
[15:03] <Starnestommy> niuq: you might need the restricted driver for your card
[15:03] <Starnestommy> ChaosTheory_: hopw do you get to the background?
[15:03] <Starnestommy> *how
[15:03] <bazhang> robg_, medibuntu wont help here :)
[15:04] <travkin> lohi
[15:04] <robg_> go to medibuntu.org, activate the medibuntu repository in your system and isntall multimedia apps, drivers, codecs,
[15:04] <bazhang> !ccsm | niuq
[15:04] <niuq> ePax: i have normal effects, if i try to change to extra, i get a message "you can't enable dekstop effects"
[15:04] <vlt> Hello. I upgraded from Gutsy to Hardy on my notebook. When running `nice'd` processes (pure number crunching) the cpu clock doesn't switch to the max. possible step. What could cause this?
[15:04] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: Basically my question is I'm running links2 -g in tty . . . it opens it up, but now I can't see the tty, of course, so if I want to switch to tty and back, as if they were windows, how do I do that?
[15:04] <GreeneMile> hi, anyone on here ever heard of haloradio?
[15:04] <niuq> Starnestommy: yeah  i needed, restricted drivers
[15:04] <ePax> niuq: Thats because you havent installed your graphic drivers properly or you dont have composit on.
[15:04] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: Or can I only keep links2 -g open while tty is in the background?
[15:05] <ePax> niuq: What graphic card do you have?
[15:05] <Nostie_> !ccsm | nost
[15:05] <Starnestommy> ChaosTheory_: you can't, but you can have several ttys open and switch between then with ctrl+alt+F<number>
[15:05] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: I use screen, so I have no need for multiple ttys.
[15:05] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: So that means I can only go back to tty once my job with links2 -g is finished?
[15:06] <niuq> ePax: an ati card, x300
[15:06] <Starnestommy> ChaosTheory_: links2 -g doesn't work in screen due to needing a framebuffer
[15:06] <Starnestommy> ChaosTheory_: or x
[15:06] <niuq> ePax: already installed restricted drivers
[15:06] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: Well, I just ran it. . .
[15:06] <ePax> !ati | niuq
[15:06] <big-g> testing
[15:06] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: Granted, I had to do sudo. . .
[15:07] <Starnestommy> ChaosTheory_: that's not exactly a good idea
[15:07] <Georgij> Hello how can i access my p990i phone in ubuntu with cable?
[15:07] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: Oh. =P
[15:08] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: So its best that I run ratpoison or something if I want to do links2 -g et al.
[15:08] <Starnestommy> ChaosTheory_: you could also use multiple ttys
[15:08] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: Also, what's this font called (tty font)?
[15:08] <big-g> hey, howcome in command line when i do a 'shutdown' my pc does not shutdown but go into maintance mode instead? how can i do a shutdown and poweroff on the command line?
[15:08] <Starnestommy> ChaosTheory_: console font
[15:08] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: Running multiple ttys lets me do links2 -g?
[15:08] <niuq> ePax: how can i test if i have 3d capabilities
[15:08] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: How do I run multiple ttys?
[15:09] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: Is that available in normal xfce4-terminal, gnome-terminal, etc. settings?
[15:09] <erUSUL> vlt: can you paste the output of sudo cpufreq-info ??
[15:09] <Starnestommy> ChaosTheory_: wait, system ttys or x ttys?
[15:09] <Georgij> Hello how can i access my p990i phone in ubuntu with cable?
[15:09] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: I don't think I'm running X.
[15:09] <Starnestommy> ChaosTheory_: is it graphical?
[15:09] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: I haven't loaded up gdm yet.
[15:09] <Georgij> I need to access my phone
[15:09] <Georgij> please help me
[15:09] <Starnestommy> oh
[15:09] <Georgij> should i mount it?
[15:09] <ChaosTheory_> Starnestommy: I can't run FF et al, so no, I don't think so.
[15:09] <Starnestommy> ChaosTheory_: ctrl+alt+F<number>
[15:10] <erUSUL> ChaosTheory_: ubuntu has 6 VT's by default switch between them with Alt + Fn
[15:10] <Starnestommy> ChaosTheory_: e.g. ctrl+alt+F1 for tty1, ctrl+alt+F6 for tty6
[15:10] <Ayabara> anyone know a way to try to restore jpeg files with damaged headers?

My sound works fine now, but "sudo modprobe ath_pci" doesn't work anymore and I don't have wireless. I can't live

[15:16] <ross_> what can ubuntu offer that windows can't?
[15:17] <erUSUL> ross_: freedom XD
[15:17] <AaronH> ross_, anything you want :)
[15:17] <Starnestommy> ross_: it's open-source and free, has no viruses in the wild, makes a good server, is generally very stable, and is far more customizeable
[15:17] <Georgij> Starnestommy, its loading
[15:17] <Georgij> :S
[15:17] <Starnestommy> ross_: plus there are a huge set of other advangates
[15:17] <ross_> such as?
[15:18] <Georgij> nothing happend
[15:18] <r0rschach> ross_: you control your OS and not your OS you, you can do whatevery you wanna do
[15:18] <AaronH> ross_, not having to load a firewall or anti-virus or anti-spyware is great :)
[15:18] <erUSUL> !ot | ross_
[15:18] <Starnestommy> ross_: compiz and amarok are some good linux-only programs
[15:19] <ross_> ok
[15:19] <dizzie> not to mention the dayli "upgrades" from windows-update :)
[15:19] <r0rschach> compiz and amarok are sucking imo ;) xcompmgr and mocp rules :D
[15:19] <rsk> ross_: virtually no virues, also no need for firewall/antivirus/defragmentation
[15:19] <ross_> rsk: ubuntu doesn't have firewall/antivirus/defragmentation?
[15:20] <Starnestommy> a firewall may still be needed depending on what you do.
[15:20] <rsk> ross_: it has but no need.
[15:20] <ross_> rsk: how does the os keep itself safe?
[15:20] <AaronH> ross_, no need
[15:20] <Starnestommy> ross_: clamav can scan for windows viruses
[15:20] <jbroome> !ot | ross_
[15:20] <rsk> ross_: there's no threat.
[15:20] <Starnestommy> ross_: the os is designed to be virus-resistant
[15:20] <AaronH> ^^^^
[15:20] <AaronH> what he said
[15:20] <r0rschach> lol why it's virus-resistant ?
[15:21] <Starnestommy> ross_: and the filesystems are designed to store data in such a way that it avoids fragmentation
[15:21] <Rioting_pacifist> because it doesnt give programs access to any anything it doesnt need
[15:21] <ross_> jbroome, i don't really think this is a "random chat" i'm trying to find "support" for ubuntu
[15:21] <emma> ross_ your questions are interesting but not really on-topic for a support channel. I suggest using your client to search the Freenode channel list for "Ubuntu" and find one of the many channels suited for general chit chat.

[15:29] <dizzie> christopher, if installed correctly, there should be a "Configure Wine" in the menu
[15:29] <jope> epax: i have runt rhough every run through i caould find
[15:29] <r0rschach> yeah just format the boot partition from a live-cd (the same ubuntu version as your installed system is) mount the partition to /boot and do a apt-get --reinstall install linux-image-<Kernel-Version>-generic
[15:29] <bullgard4> yclian: Simply install it.

[15:39] <ePax> D4s0tt0c4t: With that command you can see your SSID as well
[15:39] <fiyawerx> anyone familiar with xsane? is there a way to make it scan multiple documents and save all as one pdf? or will i have to use imagemagick to convert them all individually
[15:40] <dummies> hjth
[15:40] <jope> epax; ah yes i remember now. when i tried tht method several times yesterday when i get to this linewget ftp://lwfinger.dynalias.org/patches/bcm43xx-softmac-sa.tar.bz2 it cannot connect
[15:40] <D4s0tt0c4t> epax: I see it, so basically what I'm getting at is Wifi Radar isnt the best utility to use?
[15:41] <Waffle> D4s0tt0c4t, Kismet is a very good wi-fi network scanner
[15:41] <ePax> D4s0tt0c4t: You can use some more radars. Check add/remove programs for more wifi apps.
[15:41] <Rioting_pacifist> yclian: if you have to tme you might want to file a bug report regarding this, you shouldnt have to compile from source to get stuff working
[15:41] <eTranquility> bobatomik, Thanks. If I had to choose, I would rather have wireless than sound. Is it possible to see what was uninstalled when I reinstalled the sound module? How can I see the terminal output I had before I rebooted?
[15:42] <D4s0tt0c4t> epax: I'm used to slackware and connecting to wpa takes using the iwconfig commands, in ubunutu that doesnt work so well
[15:42] <D4s0tt0c4t> epax: kismet works I'm also familiar with airodump-ng
[15:42] <Steve-cal> eTranquility: So before you installed the linux-ubuntu-modules package you could modprobe that atheros module OK? Just want to clarify.
[15:42] <bobatomik> eTranquility its written that installing such module may disable sound, it didnt for me, but just resinstall sound after and you'll be fine
[15:42] <ePax> D4s0tt0c4t: iwlist just lists all networks with their info.
[15:42] <D4s0tt0c4t> epax: I will most likely end up there
[15:43] <eTranquility> Steve-cal, Yes, it worked okay. Sound was disabled after I got wireless working.
[15:43] <Rioting_pacifist> D4s0tt0c4t:  are you using a madwificard
[15:43] <ePax> D4s0tt0c4t: its possible to use win wireless drivers with ndiswrapper as well
[15:43] <D4s0tt0c4t> epax: If I create a wpa_supplicant.conf it will work in ubuntu right?
[15:43] <aCCe-> heloo
[15:43] <aCCe-> hello hall
[15:43] <aCCe-> can anyone tell me
[15:43] <eTranquility> bobatomik, reinstalling sound killed my wireless though...

[15:43] <Katami> I have a problem with my headset (logitech usb) when I plug it up the left side of my headset volume turns all the way down and it wont let me adjust it. Attempting to muck with it results in the right side getting lower and the chain link refuses to "link" and if I click the mute button it instantly unmutes
[15:43] <ePax> D4s0tt0c4t: im not sure about that but you can always try it
[15:43] <TuxPWNZ> I can't watch any videos, when I open a video clip, whatever its format was, only the sound works. Any help plz?
[15:44] <ePax> jope: What was the name of your card again?
[15:44] <eTranquility> bobatomik, I think I was using madwifi.
[15:44] <amenado> eTranquility-> this does not look right  /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-386/net/ath_pci.ko  <-- wrong
[15:44] <jope> bcm4310
[15:44] <Rioting_pacifist> acce you cant install ares, but you can install gift which wll connct to ares
[15:44] <Katami> I looked on google but I couldn't find any answers just 2 or three people witht he same problem

[15:44]  * Rioting_pacifist goes home and learns to type
[15:44] <eTranquility> amenado, It doesn't look right? Er, what do I do about it?
[15:44] <TuxPWNZ> ePax: I tried all the players I have, some problem with all of them.
[15:45] <amenado> eTranquility-> the net directory should be under  /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/
[15:45] <bobatomik> eTranquility, and did you try ndiswrapper?
[15:45] <TuxPWNZ> ePax: same***
[15:45] <Rioting_pacifist> aCCe-: you cant install areas but you can install gift (with frontends like apollon) which connects to the same network as ares
[15:45] <ePax> TuxPWNZ: Use VLC and then go to properetys and change output mode. Klick on advanced and try other video output modes.
[15:45] <dassouki> how can i connect my ubuntu and mac via bluetooth
[15:45] <eTranquility> amenado, How do I change it?
[15:45] <ePax> !codec | TuxPWNZ
[15:46] <amenado> eTranquility-> so i suspect your configs is looking for your driver in the wrong place
[15:46] <eTranquility> bobatomik, I tried playing with it but in the end Madwifi worked and I didn't want to mess with it.
[15:46] <rym> How would i remove all these folders at once http://pastebin.org/38407
[15:46] <amenado> eTranquility-> or the net directory should be under  /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ubuntu/
[15:47] <bullgard4> After Gutsy dist-upgrading to Hardy my Gnome programs are in English although '~$ locale' returns LANG=de_DE.UTF8. How can I change that?
[15:47] <eTranquility> amenado, How to change it?
[15:47] <Chapai> i just installed poc-streamer where is it and whats the command to run it
[15:47] <axisys> my connection keep dropping to the wireless
[15:47] <axisys> http://paste.ubuntu.com/14520/
[15:47] <jrib> rym: the stuff in /usr/bin, are you sure that isn't managed by APT?
[15:48] <amenado> eTranquility-> first, lets see what you ahve under  /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel or ubuntu    paste it in pastebin
[15:48] <rym> its not
[15:48] <axisys> i have to reset the radio on linksys to get the connection back
[15:48] <alado2> do i have to do something in particular in ubuntu before i replace my video card?
[15:48] <jrib> rym: rm -rf file1 file2 ...
[15:48] <axisys> it happens a lot since i upgraded to hardy
[15:48] <Ko_deZ> I would like to disable the maintainance mode at ubuntu boot. I have a disk that I want to automount if it is there. I added it to fstab, but now when it is not there, the machine goes to maintainence mode (ctrl+d to continue), which I would like to avoid.
[15:48] <ddamron> hehe
[15:48] <ddamron> hi all
[15:48] <rym> jrib allright, thank you
[15:48] <ddamron> oops
[15:48] <amenado> axisys-> your driver has the ability to reset the radio?
[15:49] <eTranquility> amenado, Sorry, I'm such a noob. Do you want me to type something into the terminal.
[15:49] <axisys> amenado: no.. on the linksys I did that to get the connection back
[15:50] <darkstorm^> hi pplz :)
[15:50] <amenado> eTranquility-> yes type ls -la /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel and paste this in pastebin
[15:50] <axisys> i made no change on linksys.. only upgraded my laptop to hardy
[15:50] <jope> epax: any ideas how to work around tht failure to connect?
[15:51] <amenado> axisys-> oh okay, i read it that you had somehow the ability to control the radio
[15:51] <britt> .quit
[15:51] <Ko_deZ> Anyone know how to disable maintainance mode at boot?
[15:51] <ePax> jope: I would use another guide since ftp is not working which means that they have removed that file from that ftp.
[15:52] <amenado> Ko_deZ-> what were the other text before it got into maintenance mode? can you paste it?
[15:52] <eTranquility> amenado, Okay, http://paste.ubuntu.com/14546/
[15:52] <ePax> jope: My search on google gave lots of results with your issue.
[15:52] <jope> epax: yeah but thts the problem, every guide i try theres always something goes wrong
[15:52] <jope> epax; yeah i know and each one seems to be sloghtly different and i cant get any of them to work and wihtout wireless im back to windows
[15:53] <Ko_deZ> amenado: Sorry, no. It is on a different computer. I added a disk to fstab that I want to automount it on boot, but I get maintainence mode if it is not connected now.
[15:53] <Sarah> when im using audacious, nothing else that uses sound will work unless i stop the mp3 thats playing, even pausing the mp3 isn't enough... is there a way to fix that?
[15:53] <ePax> jope: Sure. Linux is not windows so if your really want to get everything to work you might need to spend some time learning how things work.
[15:53] <amenado> eTranquility-> you noticed the  net directory? your pasting earlier somehow missed the kernel/  path..so is it a mistype when you pasted the error or was it really like you typed?
[15:53] <erUSUL> Sarah: make audacious use pulseaudio or esd as soud output ??
[15:53] <ePax> That was well offtopic :S
[15:54] <Ko_deZ> amenado: Since the computer is not easily accessable for me, that is not very handy.
[15:54] <quittt> how do I make turn on the cube on compiz?
[15:54] <Sarah> thanks erUSUL it works now using pulseaudio
[15:54] <jope> epax: yes i understand tht but wihtout a cnnection i cant. its this first step i need
[15:54] <amenado> Ko_deZ-> i suspect that what you added is not configured right, are they both masters or both slave?
[15:54] <erUSUL> Sarah: no problem ;P
[15:55] <axisys> check line 36 to 43 here http://paste.ubuntu.com/14520/
[15:55] <axisys> eth1 is being stubborn
[15:55] <Ko_deZ> amenado: it is a usb disk.
[15:55] <amenado> Ko_deZ-> or sometimes even a combo of cs and slave also is not configured right..you have to play with those jumpers
[15:55] <darkstorm^> 'update-alternatives --config java' doesn't show me icedtea but it is installed (jre, gcjwebplugin etc.) there is just java-6-openjdk selected. any ideas? :/
[15:55] <coccydynia> just making sure, will the x86 version work on an intel core 2 duo laptop? I want to avoid the x86_64 if I can due to bad experiences with other distros.
[15:55] <ePax> jope: Have you tryed to search in ubuntu forums?
[15:55] <axisys> I wonder if ipv6 is killing it
[15:55] <amenado> Ko_deZ-> any other info you left out? we are guessing as to what you have, so we will only give you bad advice if you dont give complete info
[15:56] <jope> epax: yes, i really have been on this for more than 24 hours
[15:56] <Ko_deZ> amenado: No jumpers The computer boots and everything is fine. I just added a /dev/sdb1 in fstab. This works fine if the usb disk is connected, but if i disconnect it during boot, i get maintainence mode (must press ctrl+d)
[15:56] <eTranquility> amenado, I'm looking into it... I think I copied everything correctly but I'll double check.
[15:56] <amenado> darkstorm^-> i cant remember the exact syntax myself, please google
[15:56] <ePax> jope: Did you type modprobe yourcardname?
[15:56] <joe_chat> is there any soft ware that can play an m4p itunes file
[15:57] <darkstorm^> amenado: thank u anyway
[15:57] <alado2> what do i need to change in xubuntu before i replace my ATI video card with a Nvidia one? and where do i do it?
[15:57] <amenado> Ko_deZ-> can you paste your /etc/fstab  ? let see what you have done
[15:58] <jope> eepax: ok i just tried modprobe bcm4310 and got an error but then ii tried modprobe bcm43xx and got text
[15:59] <eTranquility> amenado, I'm pretty sure that was the error. We're talking about "FATAL: Error inserting ath_pci (/lib/modules/2.6.24-16-386/net/ath_pci.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)", right?
[15:59] <bullgard4> My Hardy did install 149 files having compiz in their names although I never said that I want compiz. I do not need compiz. How can I safely deinstall compiz?
[16:00] <jope> epax: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14547/
[16:00] <Ko_deZ> amenado: /dev/sdb1       /home/mediavision/usb      ext3    noatime,users   0       3
[16:00] <amenado> eTranquility-> this does not look right  /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-386/net/ath_pci.ko  <-- wrong as you have pasted ..there is a kernel/ directory before net/
[16:00] <xodiak> bullgard4: I just removed compiz using the synaptic package manager.
[16:00] <ePax> jope: sudo -i then modprobe yourcard :D
[16:00] <xodiak> bullgard4: I mean just now did it.
[16:00] <ivan_> it's no need to update ur system to often.'
[16:00] <bullgard4> xodiak: And what packages did you de-select?
[16:01] <amenado> Ko_deZ-> i would remove that entry in your fstab  and try again, see if  it works
[16:01] <Katami> Does anybody know how to make sites like youtube  play through a usb headset instead of my laptop speakers?
[16:01] <coonlokht> server irc.undetnet.org
[16:01] <coonlokht> server irc.undernet.org
[16:01] <crdlb> bullgard4: if you are using gnome, the only truly safe way to disable compiz is to disable it with system > preferences > appearance > visual effects
[16:01] <eTranquility> amenado, so what do I do?
[16:01] <Ko_deZ> amenado: Yes, I know that it works without that line. What I want is for it to boot with the line, but without the disk.
[16:01] <jope> epax: no such file or directory
[16:02] <bullgard4> crdlb: Yes, I am using GNOME.  --  I will follow to visual effects.
[16:02] <amenado> eTranquility-> make sure your path is correct for the modules to be loaded correctly, it seems to be looking at the wrong spot
[16:02] <ePax> jope: Then try "sudo modprobe yourcard"
[16:02] <joe_chat> is the software that can convert an itunes m4p to mp3
[16:02] <ePax> jope: As i can see you have to run that command as root.
[16:03] <eTranquility> amenado, Okay, but this command worked fine before I reinstalled the sound module. What should I be typing instead?
[16:03] <amenado> Ko_deZ-> not sure why you have to have that entry in at boot time?  usb are designed to be detected when plugged in
[16:03] <amenado> eTranquility-> what command you used?
[16:03] <jope> epax: ok im a bit lost now, im not sure what you mean
[16:03] <ePax> jope: I dont know how you have installed the drivers but you should use sudo in every command
[16:04] <jope> yeah i diid use sudo
[16:04] <eTranquility> amenado, sudo modprobe ath_pci
[16:04] <esteth> Is there a tool for defragmenting NTFS partitions availible, or at least analyzing them for fragmentation?
[16:04] <jope> sepax: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14547/
[16:04] <Cracken226> hi
[16:04] <jope> epax: no wrong copy and paste
[16:04] <sizuya> hi
[16:04] <amenado> eTranquility-> somehow your path has changed, it isnt looking in the right directory as I have explained several times
[16:04] <jope> epax: i typed sudo -i bcm43xx
[16:04] <ePax> jope: When typing "modprobe bcm43xx" you have to have higher access... You can do that with "sudo modprobe bcm43xx" or "sudo -i" then "modprobe bcm43xx"
[16:05] <ePax> jope: You typed wrong.

[16:05] <ePax> empire: Change your resolve comp as root and save it and it should stay as it is.

I should search for more info on ubuntuforums as well.. And one more thing you need to bring your wifi card module up every time you start your comp or fix it to load auto.

[16:28] <ravalox> just one
[16:28] <jope> epax: ok thanks, yeah the card is up
[16:29] <eTranquility> amenado, What's sudo depmod supposed to do?
[16:29] <jope> think i have to go back to windows: no wireless, no connection, no use
[16:30] <amenado> eTranquility-> a better explanation than i can do,  man depmod
[16:30] <shawnr34> help I tried to set a mount point for a specific thumb drive now it won't mount and I'm not sure how to fix it (" Unable to mount the volume: mount_point cannot contain the following characters: newlin, G_DIR_SEPARATOR (usually /) ")
[16:30] <koheleth> jope, annoying heh!
[16:31] <erUSUL> shawnr34: what's the name of the new mount point? it seems it has ilegal characters
[16:32] <shawnr34> erUSUL, yea, i thought i set it to /media/thekey
[16:32] <kwan> I have a 1920x 1200 LCD running at 50Hz (Plug n play) and after messing the refresh rate from 50Hz to 51Hz (in displayconfig-gtk) things went terribly wrong after a reboot.  The X Server (or X Display Manager, *I know they're 2 different things*) incorrectly detects my monitor as 640x480 :S How can I reconfigure my resolution settings (Like I mentioned, 1920x1200 resolution is NO longer available in displayconfig-g
[16:32] <shawnr34> but maybe i screwed it up
[16:32] <kwan> tk)
[16:32] <shawnr34> erUSUL, where would I go to change it
[16:33] <erUSUL> shawnr34: check : "ls -al /media/"
[16:33] <jope> koheleth: yeah, because its tht first step: to get connected, after that then i can learn and fiddle about with things, but i have too have wireless
[16:33] <cidwel> anyone knows how to force flashplugin nonfree to use Alsa instead of PulseAudio?
[16:33] <linkmaster03> I accidentally configured 2 gmail screenlets, so they both start when I logon. I can't find out how to disable the other one. Any ideas on how I could do so?
[16:33] <kwan> Help.
[16:33] <robg_> cidwel: on my system Pulse Audio has been made default.
[16:33] <shawnr34> erUSUL, i ran the command what am I looking for?
[16:33] <erUSUL> cidwel: it does by default unless you install libflashsupport
[16:34] <erUSUL> shawnr34: you said  "I tried to set a mount point for a specific thumb drive" how you tried?
[16:35] <christopher> When I enabled opengl renderer, why did half of my graphics in the game just dissapear
[16:35] <shawnr34> erUSUL, right click on the mounted thumb drive under computer:/// went to Volume>Settings>Mount Point
[16:35] <erUSUL> shawnr34: and you changed it to?
[16:35] <shawnr34> erUSUL, thought I typed /media/thekey
[16:35] <shawnr34> drwxr-xr-x  2 root  root  4096 2008-05-25 11:08 thekey
[16:36] <eTranquility> amenado, I still just don't know what to do. I probably need a little more hand holding. I don't even know what a kernel module is. Is there really no way to get my wireless working through a set of troubleshooting steps to follow?
[16:36] <erUSUL> shawnr34: and the mount pint appears in /media/ (the one you typed) when you do ls -al /media/
[16:36] <shawnr34> erUSUL, yea
[16:36] <kwan> How can i reconfigure my display's resolution? (displayconfig-gtk doesn't have all the resolution modes)
[16:37] <bazhang> eTranquility, what chipset
[16:37] <shawnr34> erUSUL, but I might have typed it wrong i can't get to that properties window again because it would mount
[16:37] <kwan> I have a 1920x 1200 LCD running at 50Hz (Plug n play) and after messing the refresh rate from 50Hz to 51Hz (in displayconfig-gtk) things went terribly wrong after a reboot.

[16:37] <kwan> tk)
[16:37] <erUSUL> shawnr34: dunno what may be wrong ...
[16:38] <eTranquility> bazhang, Atheros AR5BMB5.
[16:38] <christopher> i'm starting to give up, my WOW wont run right.  I enabled opengl renderer, run the game, and now I do not have half of my graphics!!!  Anyone running wow on ubuntu help please
[16:38] <shawnr34> what can i do to fix this!!! all my passwords are stored on that usbkey!!!!
[16:38] <amenado> eTranquility-> try this  ls -la /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ubuntu/wireless   and paste the results
[16:38] <bazhang> eTranquility, madwifi not working with that?
[16:38] <xodiak> what will play an AVI file?
[16:38] <quantum> hey guys! can anybody pls tell me how i can find out wich partions are mounted from /dev/ ???
[16:38] <bazhang> xodiak, just about anything
[16:39] <vocx> quantum, type "mount"
[16:39] <amenado> bazhang-> his  path is out of whack somehow,  so when he modprobe ath_pci he is given a cant load becuase its looking at the wrong path
[16:39] <hmuller> What should be backed up for current bluetooth settings, other than /var/lib/bluetooth/* ?
[16:39] <xodiak> bazhang: I tried with "movie player" that's installed by default, but the file does not play.
[16:39] <bazhang> amenado, okie thanks
[16:39] <bazhang> xodiak, what about vlc
[16:39] <shawnr34> If I format a USB key will it change the UUID number ?
[16:39] <quantum> vocx, thx alot!
[16:40] <amenado> bazhang-> perhaps you recall where the settings of where modprobe looks for the modules? was it LD_LIBRARY_PATH ?
[16:40] <xodiak> bazhang: seems all I have installed is movie player. looking for vlc now.
[16:40] <vocx> shawnr34, maybe, but why does it matter? You can always now the new UUID.
[16:40] <robg_> xodiak: you need w32codecs and libdvdcss from medibuntu.org
[16:41] <eTranquility> baxhang, it worked fine but disabled my sound. Reinstalling the sound module disabled the wireless.
[16:41] <bazhang> xodiak, listen to robg on this one
[16:41] <xodiak> robg_: okay.
[16:41] <eTranquility> amenado, http://paste.ubuntu.com/14554/
[16:41] <robg_> xodiak: you can either download these from the mirror or you can activate the medibuntu repository in your system and then install them from there.
[16:42] <shawnr34> vocx,  I tried to set a mount point for a specific thumb drive now it won't mount and I'm not sure how to fix it (" Unable to mount the volume: mount_point cannot contain the following characters: newlin, G_DIR_SEPARATOR (usually /) ")
[16:42] <yw> vbngjhv
[16:42] <amenado> eTranquility-> perhaps you can put a copy of ath_pci.ko  in that directory
[16:43] <vocx> shawnr34, is that in your fstab? Or how are you trying to mount?
[16:43] <KRaZy_WaKa> is anybody running Firefox 3 RC1 on Hardy? if so, how did you upgrade from beta 5 to RC1?
[16:43] <shawnr34> vocx, I right clicked on the mounted thumb drive under computer:/// went to Volume>Settings>Mount Point
[16:43] <xodiak> robg_: how do I activate the medibuntu repository?
[16:43] <bazhang> amenado, sorry for the slow response--no real clue about the path
[16:43] <eTranquility> bazhang, it worked fine but disabled my sound. Reinstalling the sound module disabled the wireless. See http://paste.ubuntu.com/14554/ for the error "sudo modprobe ath_pci" now gives.
[16:43] <fiyawerx> !medibuntu
[16:43] <fiyawerx> xodiak, check their website
[16:43] <shawnr34> vocx, thought I typed /media/thekey but may have messed it up
[16:44] <eTranquility> amenado, Okay, I know how to do that, I think...
[16:44] <pim> How can I extract a .zip archive
[16:44] <beto0707> Howdy.  I believe I have run into a known bug with Nvidia onboard cards, but the advice in launchpad does not work for me.  Here is the link the bug page: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/136836
[16:44] <xodiak> affirmative
[16:44] <robg_> xodiak: the easiest way is to activate the repo and to install the multimedia stuff from there. Medibuntu.org provides instructions and an apt-get phrase.
[16:44] <beto0707> I can not get my wired network to work...
[16:44] <papared> Hello guys, does anybody work in the Testing team?
[16:44] <amenado> eTranquility-> just for comparison, my ath_pci.ko is at  /lib/modules/`uname -r`/madwifi/ath_pci.ko
[16:44] <|newbie|> ciao a tutti !!
[16:44] <KRaZy_WaKa> xodiak: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu#head-7486ed038a9becc1dff10a24cc07a38a00d70e9f
[16:45] <bazhang> !it | |newbie|
[16:45] <PriceChild> papared: try #ubuntu-testing
[16:45] <vocx> shawnr34, the mount point must first exist. Why would you use the key? Use a regular directory like "/home/user/USBstuff"
[16:45] <christopher> how do i change name
[16:46] <bazhang> christopher, /nick newnick
[16:46] <shawnr34> vocx, i did create the dir first, i found why it got screwed up... "you need to enter the new mount point as "newmountpoint" to get it to show up to "/media/newmountpoint". If you set it to "/media/newmountpoint" like I did, it will break"
[16:46] <HairyDude> is there a gui tool for changing the default language? my installation only had "English" which is apparently US English, but I want UK English
[16:46] <prodigel> Hi all. I would like to start ktorrent at boot without the need for login(daemon like). can I do this?
[16:46] <KRaZy_WaKa> xodiak: the link i just put up has the proper commands to activate the medibuntu repository, copy and pastable into terminal
[16:46] <vocx> shawnr34, so problem solved?
[16:46] <kwan> How can i reconfigure my display's resolution? (displayconfig-gtk doesn't have all the resolution modes)?
[16:47] <shawnr34> vocx, i think, still reading this thread in the forum
[16:47] <amenado> who has fiddled with apparmor? is it a good tool to have? any insight you can share? difficult to use and basically useless?
[16:47] <vocx> shawnr34, okay
[16:48] <vocx> amenado, I think it is most useful for servers, not so much for desktop installations.
[16:48] <live> will ubuntu run on open pandora? (or at least xubuntu?)
[16:48] <chris_wow> anyone running wow on ubuntu 8.04 that can help me?
[16:48] <eTranquility> amenado, I tried "sudo cp /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-386/net/ath_pci.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ubuntu/wireless" but it didn't help...
[16:48] <amenado> vocx-> have you used it?  how is it working for you if you have?
[16:49] <stefano> !list
[16:49] <live> chris_wow: what's the problem?
[16:49] <robg_> xodiak: you will have to install Sun Java and must uninstall OpenJDK.
[16:49] <amenado> eTranquility-> is that where ath_pci.ko resides? or where does it reside really?
[16:49] <vocx> amenado, I haven't used it. As far as I know, it is in the kernel, so it is being used without users actually knowing, or caring about it. It just runs.
[16:49] <chris_wow> live, i am having trouble with the graphics in the game.
[16:50] <amenado> eTranquility-> i thought the error was it could not find it earlier?
[16:50] <live> which graphic card?
[16:50] <chris_wow> intel 945
[16:50] <eTranquility> amenado, I don't know.
[16:50] <amenado> vocx, oh okay, i thought you have used, it, just trying to get a feel for this tool
[16:50] <KinkyBlackGoat> hm, how can I change the "default" fonts GTK uses?
[16:50] <live> are you running wine as d3d or as opengl?
[16:50] <amenado> eTranquility-> well go find it first
[16:50] <eTranquility> amenado, let me try again...
[16:51] <holo> hi
[16:51] <kwan> How can i reconfigure my display's resolution? (displayconfig-gtk doesn't have all the resolution modes)?  Prior to Hardy, i remember dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg allow me to set resolution modes but it doesn't give me to option to do so now
[16:51] <chris_wow> live, i did the set opengl in the config file
[16:51] <holo> I have this problem:
[16:51] <holo> src/mumble/mumble.pro
[16:51] <holo> no, i don't have ths problem lol
[16:51] <holo> just a second
[16:51] <holo> $ qmake main.pro
[16:51] <holo> Failure to open file: /home/carlos/Desktop/mumble-1.1.4/Makefile
[16:51] <FloodBot3> holo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:52] <chris_wow> live, but now i'm missing things in the game, like me, my clothes will show but i wont, and the senery that is missing is a blue color
[16:52] <live> chris_wow: have you looked for it in appdb of wine?
[16:52] <chris_wow> dont know how
[16:52] <holo> it was a 2 line paste.. is it flood? btw, the channel is not active.. so you should appreciate my exccessive verbosity
[16:52] <holo> :)
[16:52] <mewt> holo, I daresay it's quite active actually :)
[16:52] <axisys> this bug is what I am experiencing https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/220190
[16:53] <fiyawerx> holo: it was your paste + your previous lines i believe
[16:53] <axisys> sucks there is no fix yet
[16:53] <fiyawerx> I think it was an auto response
[16:53] <live> chris_wow: which version of wow?
[16:53] <quantum> hey how can i rescue the data of a memory-stick?
[16:53] <BlackDragonBE> hi everyone, first time here
[16:53] <eTranquility> amenado, Should I try searching for it?
[16:53] <axisys> amenado: I rather not disable roaming
[16:53] <KRaZy_WaKa> holo: Floodbot is an auto responder bot
[16:53] <chris_wow> live: wow 2.42, the latest one with burning crusade
[16:53] <nops> test
[16:53] <axisys> amenado: I like that feature
[16:54] <holo> oops, i got cheated by a bot
[16:54] <Loligaga> What are the diffrences between ubuntu desktop and ubuntu server???????
[16:54] <live> chris_wow: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=11329
[16:54] <axisys> Loligaga: window manager
[16:54] <KRaZy_WaKa> it only caught your post because you copied and pasted multiple lines
[16:54] <chris_wow> live: what i did is copied the files from my wifeys win box into the directory here
[16:54] <soundray> quantum: at what temperature did you wash it?
[16:54] <astro76> !server | Loligaga
[16:54] <quantum> soundray: ??
[16:54] <jrib> Loligaga: server does not have a graphical environment by default.  The installer for server also offers to automate the setup of a bunch of server stuff
[16:54] <soundray> quantum: what happened to your memory stick
[16:54] <BlackDragonBE> the apps installed are different
[16:55] <kwan> How can i reconfigure my display's resolution? (displayconfig-gtk doesn't have all the resolution modes)?
[16:55] <z1ng3r> Okay... so I've got 6.06 server, and CIFS file mounts are starting to throw errors about "CIFS VFS: No response..."  I see a fair amount of chatter about it in google, but does anyone here have a fix for it?  Other than dumping my Win2003 server?
[16:55] <BlackDragonBE> kwan: your x config file
[16:55] <quantum> soundray: i tried to use it on the vista of a friend and now it has 0 of 0 bites and no partitions
[16:55] <Loligaga> So i have to do everything by terminal
[16:55] <axisys> kwan: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg (??)
[16:55] <quantum> soundray: everything is lost -.-
[16:56] <live> chris_wow: I have heard that some inter chipsets have a real problem with wow, if you have a desktop pc I would try with another graphic card
[16:56] <BlackDragonBE> loligaga: just do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[16:56] <quantum> soundray: do you know how i can rescue the data?
[16:56] <Loligaga> Is it not easier to just run apachi and call it a day??
[16:56] <soundray> quantum: if you're lucky, it only wrecked the partition table. Try to recover it with gpart. Read the documentation
[16:56] <vocx> Loligaga, linux is very flexible so you may install a desktop Ubuntu and then install the appropriate packages to turn it into a server.
[16:56] <soundray> !info gpart | quantum
[16:56] <linkmaster03> how can I copy part of my screen to the clipboard
[16:56] <chris_wow> live: this is a laptop
[16:56] <BlackDragonBE> vocx, i think its the other way around
[16:56] <amenado> eTranquility-> yes search for it
[16:56] <soundray> quantum: another rescue tool is called testdisk, but I haven't tried that myself
 will that make it have a gui
[16:57] <soundray> !info testdisk | quantum
[16:57] <robg_> vocx: such experimentation is frowned upon.
[16:57] <live> chris_wow: have you read the appdb entry? http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=11329
[16:57] <amenado> axisys-> it is up to you, but stop complaining about getting disconnected
[16:57] <BlackDragonBE> loligaga: yes
[16:57] <vocx> BlackDragonBE, you can do it however you like, or what stops you from installing a new package?
[16:57] <Loligaga> ok
[16:57] <vocx> robg_, ye, I'm just pointing out that possibility
[16:57] <quantum> soundray: testdisk does not work because it cant find any partion to rescue!?
[16:57] <axisys> amenado: well sorry if I annoyed it.. but intention was looking for a fix ..
[16:58] <soundray> quantum: have you read the documentation?
[16:58] <kwan> axisys:  Yea.. Prior to Hardy, when I do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, it will asks me what resolution modes i want enabled but now when it doesn't have it
[16:58] <live> chris_wow: some of hints could help, at least they helper me with oblivion on nvidia 8600GT, wow works with opengl without any problems
[16:58] <amenado> axisys-> i tried to advise you of a fix, so if you dont want to the fix, stop complaining
[16:58] <robg_> vocx: it is not helpful advise. You must plan for future support and keep some standardisation.
[16:58] <quantum> soundray: you mean "man testdisk" ?
[16:58] <axisys> amenado: ;-)
[16:58] <astro76> robg_: not helpful advise to install apache on ubuntu desktop? nonsense
[16:58] <eTranquility> amenado, Okay, the ath_pci.ko files I found are at /home/elizabeth/madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007/ath, /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-386/net, /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-386/madwifi, /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-386/ubuntu/wireless, /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic/madwifi.
[16:58] <soundray> quantum: yes, and whatever you can find in /usr/share/doc/testdisk
[16:59] <quantum> soundray: i installed gpart now!
[16:59] <vocx> robg_, depends, what if it is some homebrew server? Really, with linux you can do whatever you want.
[16:59] <quantum> soundray: do you think it will work?
[16:59] <axisys> amenado: i think what u suggested is a workaround
[16:59] <robg_> astro76: ubuntu will move towards standardisation to facilitate online support. If everybody builds his own computer then support becomes difficult.
[17:00] <astro76> robg_: umm, no
[17:00] <amenado> axisys-> it had worked for me for a long time, its great
[17:00] <chris_wow> live: it's running smoother, but doesnt solve my graphics problem
[17:00] <soundray> quantum: it depends entirely on the nature of the fault.
[17:00] <astro76> robg_: not sure where you're getting these ideas ;)
[17:00] <quantum> soundray: can you tell me what to type if the stick is on /dev/sde1
[17:00] <soundray> quantum: how should I know what Vista has done to your device? ;)
[17:00] <robg_> astro76: my desktop configuration is already being online supported for 100%
[17:00] <bazhang> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Hardy#Install_a_LAMP_server_on_a_Desktop robg
[17:00] <Lattyware> Hmm... I appear to have found a bug in hardy. It'll copy directories recursively into itself.
[17:00] <quantum> soundray: well your right sorry!
[17:00] <amenado> eTranquility-> it seems in the right place, perhaps somebody else here can suggest how to teach modprobe to look for your ath_pci.ko at those directories
[17:00] <soundray> quantum: the stick isn't on /dev/sde1. That's a partition device name.
[17:00] <live> chris_wow: you can try to ask for help in #winehq , sometimer they can help you
[17:01] <adante> howdy folks, if i have a desktop session and a vnc session going at the same time how can i make my gnome-terminal go where i want it to when i start it?
[17:01] <vocx> robg_, we were not referring to the possibility of getting support, just the simple fact that you can install apache in your desktop Ubuntu if you want.
[17:01] <jrib> Lattyware: pastebin an example
[17:01] <quantum> soundray: how can i find out where it is?
[17:01] <soundray> quantum: the stick as such could be on /dev/sde
[17:01] <adante> as far as I can tell DISPLAY is set appropriatelly, but it is still not showing up
[17:01] <quantum> soundray: okay
[17:01] <boxy> hi, i just did an apt-get install xubuntu-desktop on a minimal install and i restarted and gdm let me login but the desktop just pops up a terminal and there are no menus or panels or title bar for the terminal
[17:01] <quantum> soundray: so what do i have to type?
[17:01] <robg_> vocx: you can always do what you want but if you want others to support your device then you will have to maintain some standardisation.
[17:02] <quantum> soundray: "mount" says that the file-system of the stick is "vfat"
[17:02] <soundray> quantum: I won't read the documentation out to you. Your unwillingness to read was probably the problem you encountered with testdisk.
[17:02] <BlackDragonBE> boxy: do you have a window manager installed?
[17:02] <amenado> can someone remember how to tell modprobe to look for certain modules? was it $LD_LIBRARY_PATH?
[17:02] <Lattyware> jrib: Pastebin? It's a pretty simple concept. If I have a folder with files in, and another folder, and a select that entire folder, and copy and paste into the folder inside it, it'll find the new folder you are copying, and recursively copy and paste itself until it runs out of space/memory.
[17:02] <boxy> BlackDragonBE no? i just did a minimal install last night then today went to terminal and did apt-get install xubuntu-desktop so im nto sure
[17:02] <amenado> darn ubuntu seems to change its way of things..
[17:02] <erUSUL> amenado: afaik modprobe will look only in /lib/modules/`uname -r`
[17:02] <vocx> amenado, which module is not being found?
[17:02] <quantum> soundray: okay i'll read it sry! do you think it will be a problem that the stick's fs is "vfat"? because this fs is not listet in gpart doc!?
[17:03] <astro76> Lattyware: yeah I actually ran into that yesterday, meaning to look into a bug report
[17:03] <eTranquility> amenado, Do you have any idea what could have gone wrong when I reinstalled the sound module?
[17:03] <amenado> Im trying to assist eTranquility and his modprobe of  ath_pci.ko  looks at the wrong path
[17:03] <kwan> axisys, any idea?
[17:03] <jrib> Lattyware: use actual name a, b, c.  Your description is confusing
[17:03] <soundray> quantum: vfat is the filesystem driver that Linux uses to mount FAT16 and FAT32 filesystems.
[17:03] <quantum> soundray: do you think it will be a problem that the stick's fs is "vfat"? because this fs is not listet in gpart doc!?
[17:04] <BlackDragonBE> boxy: what happens when you try xfce --replace
[17:04] <amenado> erUSUL-> i expected it too, but somehow eTranquility effort to use modprobe points him to the wrong directory
[17:04] <Lattyware> astro76: Yeah, I wondered why my source code folder was suddenly like 1GB in size and going. Then my memory started being eaten.
[17:04] <vocx> amenado, maybe do a "sudo depmod -a"  that will rebuild the modules database or something then try modprobe again.
[17:04] <quantum> soundray: ah okay thank you so much!
[17:04] <mbi0> hellow guys
[17:04] <Lattyware> jrib: Folder X inside Folder Y, you copy folder Y into folder X, and it recurses.
[17:04] <boxy> "xfce command not found"
[17:04] <astro76> jrib: you can paste directory a into directory a, which will start a forever deep recursive copy
[17:04] <mbi0> having trouble with ubuntu 8.04 and wireless card can any one help me ?
[17:04] <amenado> eTranquility-> you saw that from vocx?   sudo depmod -a   i only gave you depmod earlier..
[17:05] <eTranquility> amenado, So... do I just type sudo depmod -a?
[17:05] <BlackDragonBE> boxy, and "xfwm4"?
[17:05] <amenado> eTranquility-> try, it would not hurt you
[17:06] <chris_wow> live: that solved the graphics problem, but now the game is jumpy
[17:06] <chris_wow> we making progress
[17:06] <boxy> says something about cannot open the display
[17:06] <amenado> eTranquility-> then after   sudo modprobe ath_pci  once more
[17:06] <Glightning> What game are you guys working on?
[17:06] <KRaZy_WaKa> anybody know how to upgrade Firefox 3
[17:06] <chris_wow> wow
[17:06] <eTranquility> amenado, Still no luck. Same error, different path. "FATAL: Error inserting ath_pci (/lib/modules/2.6.24-16-386/ubuntu/wireless/ath_pci.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)"
[17:07] <bigjoe4> hi
[17:07] <Glightning> Is it possible to run?
[17:07] <BlackDragonBE> try "xfwm4 --replace"
[17:07] <erUSUL> eTranquility: and what does "dmesg" says ??
[17:07] <bigjoe4> does anybody know how to schedule thunderbird to start at system startup on ubuntu?
[17:07] <axisys> amenado: i disabled roaming for wireless.. now how do I switch to wireless?
[17:07] <axisys>
[17:07] <kwan> How can i reconfigure my display's resolution without manually editing xorg.conf? (displayconfig-gtk doesn't have all the resolution modes)?
[17:08] <live> chris_wow: what do you mean with "jumpy"? high fps?
[17:08] <chairmeleon> hey. I have an old AGFA StudioScan II SCSI scanner, supposedly supported by the microtek driver for sane
[17:08] <chris_wow> i'm running it, just trying to get to not so choppy running.. it's really really jurky atm
[17:08] <chairmeleon> though I can't find this driver in ubuntu
[17:08] <bigjoe4> how do I schedule thunderbird to start at system startup on ubuntu?
[17:08] <Glightning> oh okay cool
[17:08] <amenado> eTranquility-> now thats a different error, thats like the module was compiled on a different kernel than what you got
[17:08] <astro76> !startup | bigjoe4
[17:08] <Glightning> does anyone know how to get counter strike source going?
[17:08] <KRaZy_WaKa> anybody know how to upgrade firefox 3 beta 5 to firefox 3 rc1 in hardy?  ... sorry for double post i accidentally hit enter before i finished typing
[17:09] <Ienorand> !shutdown
[17:09] <Lattyware> Glightning: Check the wine AppDB
[17:09] <bigjoe4> OK
[17:09] <amenado> axisys-> you are still using wireless, just not the roaming mode of it..ie it dont auto switch to a stronger signal ap it can latch on
[17:09] <astro76> KRaZy_WaKa: I'd wait for the package to hit the repos
[17:09] <Ienorand> Ah, does anybody know how to add script on shutdown?
[17:09] <chris_wow> live: the fps is 7
[17:09] <Glightning> latty, i have everything installed, but it freezes on loading
[17:10] <delta9thc1> kwan: you should tell me more,like  ... which gpu you have?
[17:10] <KRaZy_WaKa> astro76: how long does that usually take?
[17:10] <Lattyware> Glightning: Sorry, I don't know too much in specifics.
[17:10] <eTranquility> amenado, Woah, I get a lot of stuff. I can't even copy all of it because there's so much.
[17:10] <live> chris_wow: have you tried to change in-game settings, like lower draw distances?
[17:10] <hmuller> Lattyware: astro76: jrib: I tested copy and paste folder a into folder a.  It does a recursive copy, but it errs out, doesn't do a 'forever' deep
[17:10] <chris_wow> lower draw distances?
[17:10] <astro76> hmuller: yeah that way does error out, some ways keep going
[17:11] <amenado> eTranquility-> lots of what? wireless AP in your hood?
[17:11] <norbert_> is it possible to save pictures in an .odt file?
[17:11] <jrib> Lattyware, hmuller, astro76: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/232190
[17:11] <Lattyware> hmuller: Well, mine did it for 500mb and a lot of memory on a folder that totals around 50kb
[17:11] <Lattyware> before I killed it myself
[17:11] <AcornAcorn> does anyone use xchat-gnome?
[17:11] <hmuller> AcornAcorn: Using it now
[17:11] <robg_> AcornAcorn: yes
[17:11] <astro76> KRaZy_WaKa: usually a few days, this one is delayed because all the devs were at a developers conference
[17:12] <chris_wow> live: how do ya change draw distances
[17:12] <live> chris_wow: try to set everything to minimum and if necessary try to disable sound
[17:12] <astro76> cheers jrib
[17:12] <Lattyware> I don't know why you'd use the -gnome variant, the 'proper' one is by far better.
[17:12] <eTranquility> amenado, http://paste.ubuntu.com/14558/.
[17:13] <KRaZy_WaKa> thanks astro
[17:13] <axisys> amenado: so lets say I want to switch to wired .. how do I do it?
[17:13] <AcornAcorn> hmuller robg_: any idea why i have little dice symbols either side of peoples' nicknames?
[17:13] <ssorel> PRINTF("WHOLLY SHIT!! \n");
[17:13] <janeUbuntu[]> can pppd(pppoe) use pap-secrets in other directory(not in /etc/ppp) ?
[17:13] <robg_> AcornAcorn: I don't see any dice symbols.
[17:13] <[j0hn]> hello :)
[17:13] <hmuller> AcornAcorn: I don't see them either
[17:13]  * ssorel iz like wholly shit man
[17:13] <astro76> AcornAcorn: sounds like it's using a symbol which your current font doesn't have a symbol for
[17:14] <amenado> axisys-> you activate your wired -- simple, but make sure you dont also have your wireless working at same time unless you know how to configure your route correctly, it will get confuse as to which route to take
[17:14] <astro76> !ohmy | ssorel
[17:14] <AcornAcorn> astro76: that must be it, any idea how to sort it?
[17:14] <robg_> AcornAcorn: on my system nicks are in boxes
[17:14] <ssorel> ok
[17:14] <etyrnal> NEVERMIND
[17:14] <ssorel> sorry
[17:14] <etyrnal> =)
[17:14] <[j0hn]> can anyone help me? i have a problem traying to use my cdrom
[17:14] <quantum> j0hn: whats the problem?
[17:14] <KRaZy_WaKa> i'm not acclimated to source code installs and couldnt find it through synaptic or upgrade manager
[17:14] <Ienorand> Oh, did anybody know how to run a script on shutdown
[17:15] <etyrnal> i figured it out myself - and i didn;t even ask You guys the question...  how's THAT for a nevermind?!
[17:15] <AcornAcorn> robg_: I get <robg_>
[17:15] <soundray> janeUbuntu[]: no. You'd have to recompile -- I think the path is hard-coded
[17:15] <etyrnal> i have VANQUISHED my problems!
[17:15] <astro76> AcornAcorn: dunno about xchat specifically, check the font settings
[17:15] <robg_> jOhn: you are probably not keeping your finger on F8 during boot.
[17:15] <KRaZy_WaKa> so i'll wait thanx again astro
[17:15] <AcornAcorn> robg_: ok, the dice symbols didn't show
[17:15] <etyrnal> (well at least three or four)
[17:15] <kwan> delta9thc1, its not a gpu problem i'm experiencing.  My system was running perfectly until I messed with the refresh rate (from 50Hz->51Hz) in displayconfig-gtk then on the next reboot, the X Server (or X display manager *I know they're different things, I just want to make a loose reference) incorrectly detects my lcd's resolution as 640x480.
[17:15] <janeUbuntu[]> soundray,    thank you.
[17:16] <zTriker> hi guys, has someone an idea how to define a custom panel-menu icon in Ubuntu? i looked in the gconf-editor, but i didnt find an field like "/home/username/Panel-Menu-Icon.png" : / I had uploaded a screenshot ( http://dan1el.da.funpic.de/screenshot.png ) for those who dont know what i mean
[17:16] <AcornAcorn> astro76: it says it's using system terminal font
[17:16] <amenado> eTranquility-> i dont know what that is, which command generated that?
[17:17] <romulo> hi, i installed one package "kismet" but after checking the installed files and the package, many files that were supposed to be there, arent. An example is the whole /etc/kismet/ configuration folder. What Can i do?
[17:17] <delta9thc1> kwan: do you have nvidia or ati?
[17:17] <KRaZy_WaKa> anybody know how to change the default download directiry in hardy?
[17:17] <tuttoom> hola
[17:17] <kwan> delta9thc1, nvidia
[17:17] <bigjoe4> hi
[17:17] <tuttoom> españ
[17:17] <tuttoom> españa
[17:17] <quantum> romulo: try reinstalling it!
[17:17] <bigjoe4> how do I stop ubuntu from bringing up annoying messages asking for password?
[17:17] <KRaZy_WaKa> in gutsy you could change it from the downloads window and i'm not seeing the option in hardy just a search bar
[17:17] <yclian_> Just wondering, could this be a Ubuntu problem or plainly perl issue, while running a cpan install: Can't call method "value" on an undefined value at /usr/share/perl5/IO/Uncompress/RawInflate.pm line 64.
[17:17] <xTheGoat121x> Is there a way to remove the icon of an auto mounted HDD from the desktop?
[17:18] <delta9thc1> kwan: dpkg --get-selections nvidia*
[17:18] <[j0hn]> i can't use my cdrom, trying to mount it says that /dev/scd0 is read protected and i have to say the file type or something like that (is in spanish :P)
[17:18] <romulo> quantum, already did...
[17:18] <live> chris_wow: are you using any desktop effects?
[17:18] <AcornAcorn> any idea if there is an xchat-gnome irc channel?
[17:18] <[j0hn]> and if i want to burn something with k3b it doesn't show my cd device
[17:18] <KRaZy_WaKa> xTheGoat121x restart your computer
[17:18] <quantum> romulo: sry i dont know what else to do!
[17:18] <yclian_> Umm, looks like something in here, somewhere, but I could be wrong: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=482247
[17:18] <bigjoe4> how do I stop ubuntu from asking for password all the time whenever I try to do anything??
[17:18] <robg_> jOhn: CD-ROM is controlled from the BIOS
[17:18] <astro76> AcornAcorn: try changing the font, there is an #xchat but they *do not* like xchat-gnome
[17:18] <kwan> delta9thc1, I was running happily at 1920x1200 (50Hz) before.  its when i changed the refresh rate from 50Hz to 51Hz that caused everything to break
[17:19] <zTriker> hi guys, has someone an idea how to define a custom panel-menu icon in Ubuntu? i looked in the gconf-editor, but i didnt find an field like "/home/username/Panel-Menu-Icon.png" : / I had uploaded a screenshot ( http://dan1el.da.funpic.de/screenshot.png ) for those who dont know what i mean
[17:19] <Glightning> chris_wow: did you use the cds or the download from the wow website?
[17:19] <jrib> bigjoe4: what are you doing so often that requires a password?
[17:19] <astro76> AcornAcorn: another reason many would recommend xchat regular ;)
[17:19] <[j0hn]> robg: so, what should i do? :S
[17:19] <quantum> j0hn: first find out what device it is in /dev/ then type "sudo mount /dev/xxx /media/cdrom"
[17:19] <emma> bigjoe4: it's not recommended that you do that, to the best of my knowledge. You can just use sudo and it will only ask for your password once, and you won't need it again for a period of time afterword.
[17:19] <xTheGoat121x> KRaZy_WaKa, that'll get rid of it permanently?  Even though it'll mount every time I start the computer?
[17:19] <AcornAcorn> astro76: maybe i just need to learn to customise xchat.. it just seemed so cluttered and difficult to read
[17:19] <robg_> jOhn: you don't have to mount your CD-ROM. It is hardwired to start from the BIOS.
[17:20] <bigjoe4> yeah but I don't want to ever have to type a password
[17:20] <eTranquility> erUSUL, http://paste.ubuntu.com/14558/
[17:20] <bigjoe4> it slows me down
[17:20] <KRaZy_WaKa> xTheGoat121x: i have to click on mine to mount it and when i restart it is no longer mounted i have to click it every time i restart
[17:20] <zTriker> Has nobody an idea for me? : /
[17:20] <[j0hn]> quantum: i have /dev/cdrom1 and /dev/scd0
[17:20] <astro76> bigjoe4: start a root shell with sudo -i ?
[17:20] <bigjoe4> I ahve no ides waht that means
[17:21] <xTheGoat121x> KRaZy_WaKa, ah, ok... I don't have to click on mine.
[17:21] <KRaZy_WaKa> xTheGoat121x: if yours automounts on every boot/reboot you may have to disable automount and i'm not positive how to do that sorry
[17:21] <AcornAcorn> astro76: gah, back to xchat I go
[17:21] <delta9thc1> kwan: understood, however type that command
[17:21] <astro76> bigjoe4: oye... you generally are not configuring the system, so not sure how sudo password is going to slow you down, but sudo -i will open a root shell where you can enter commands as root without sudo
[17:22] <kwan> delta9thc1, How come dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg no longer lets me set the resolution modes?  I'm 100% it had it Prior to Hardy
[17:22] <xTheGoat121x> KRaZy_WaKa, I set it up to automount, I wanted that... I just don't want it on my desktop
[17:22] <zTriker> hi guys, has someone an idea how to define a custom panel-menu icon in Ubuntu? i looked in the gconf-editor, but i didnt find an field like "/home/username/Panel-Menu-Icon.png" : / I had uploaded a screenshot ( http://dan1el.da.funpic.de/screenshot.png ) for those who dont know what i mean
[17:22] <KRaZy_WaKa> xTheGoat121x: check the ubuntu forums... search automounting volumes, it should also tell you how to disable automounting
[17:22] <bigjoe4> I know, I will see if it lets me change password to ""
[17:22] <jrib> bigjoe4: did you see my question?
[17:23] <bigjoe4> the I can just press enter 8-)
[17:23] <kwan> delta9thc1, nvidia-glx-new & nvidia-kernel-common installed
[17:23] <jwormy> zTriker: i have a friend that has some of those snakes
[17:23] <bigjoe4> oh
[17:23] <bigjoe4> just editing settings and stuff
[17:23] <zTriker> jwormy: ;)
[17:24] <KRaZy_WaKa> xTheGoat121x: ok i see what you are saying now just don't want the icon on desktop, not sure sorry
[17:24] <jwormy> zTriker: green tree boa right?
[17:24] <etyrnal> STUPID QUESTION: sorry - sorry i am running on compromised brain-memory.  What do i have to do to a command to make it so that when i hit enter (inthe cli) the process gets backgrounded ??
[17:24] <zTriker> jwormy: yes of course
[17:24] <delta9thc1> kwan: ok    dpkg -l | grep nvidia*
[17:24] <quantum> j0hn: then try "sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom"
[17:24] <quantum> j0hn: what does it say?
[17:24] <astro76> etyrnal: command &
[17:24] <zTriker> jwormy: but thats not my question : /
[17:24] <exco> hello
[17:24] <punkk> Can some on reccommend a good program to replace itunes

[17:25] <soundray> !player | punkk
[17:25] <punkk> soundtray, thanks
[17:25] <etyrnal> astro76, THAK YOU!
[17:25] <soundray> punkk: rhythmbox and amarok probably come closest
[17:25] <jwormy> zTriker: well i'd watch out forthat thing.. if it jumps out of yer desktop yer screwed.

[17:26] <|Dreams|> hrhodes3114: apache
[17:26] <etyrnal> i did man bash, i just think i missed that
[17:26] <exco> does anybody have a howto at hand for setting up multiple monitors (Ati X700, fglrx, laptop, lvds+tmds-1) (not mirror mode)
[17:26] <hrhodes3114> thankyou sir
[17:26] <quantum> j0hn: are you admin? can you run commands as root? if you are then just change the systems language!
[17:27] <soundray> etyrnal: you can also suspend the program with Ctrl-Z and send it to the background with 'bg'
[17:27] <soundray> quantum: have you been successful?
[17:27] <delta9thc1> kwan: reinstall your nvidia drivers and check your xorg configuration,h and v refresh
[17:27] <Rioting_pacifist>  is azureus in repos old or is it a backport of the latest vuze to azureus?
[17:28] <Deepthought> exco: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174
[17:28] <vocx> Rioting_pacifist, it is and old version I think, you can check that in the launchpad page
[17:28] <Rioting_pacifist> ok thx
[17:28] <quantum> soundray: i read the content of /usr/ahre/doc/testdisk/html  and there is a programm in the package named "photrec" right now it's recovering the data! thank you!!!

[17:29] <etyrnal> soundray, thanks - is there a way to make the ourpur of a backgrounded curl be quiet?
[17:29]  * xTheGoat121x slips out of the room
[17:29] <Rioting_pacifist> are there any plans to support vuze or will i have to install it manually
[17:29] <quantum> j0hn: can you change the language?
[17:29] <|Dreams|> ew0k: sudo cp folder etc to location
[17:30] <exco> thanks, Deepthought I started reading that earlier... seems just a bit much to swallow
[17:30] <|Dreams|> eg sudo /home/blah/filename.blah /root/filename.blah
[17:30] <|Dreams|> sorry forgot the cp
[17:30] <|Dreams|> lol
[17:30] <soundray> etyrnal: I don't think so -- once it's running, that's out of your control
[17:30] <vocx> Rioting_pacifist, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/azureus  as you can see, the one in the repos in <IP_ADDRESS> however you can run latest tar.gz and it works okay.
[17:30] <eTranquility> erUSUL, http://paste.ubuntu.com/14558/ is the output of dmesg.
[17:30] <|Dreams|> been a long dayyy
[17:30] <jwormy> |Dreams|: not the important part ;)
[17:31] <njalar> Is it possible to tell Ubuntu (8.04) to check all the hardware and download and install the best drivers? I had a working installation and managed to break it (Possibly when installing VirtualBox) and now it won find the wireless network card and other hardware.
[17:31] <quantum> soundray: sry i mean "photorec" ... thx anyway ;-)
[17:31] <delta9thc1> kwan: sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia-glx-new nvidia-settings && sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new nvidia-settings
[17:31] <soundray> njalar: in the course of installing virtualbox, did you change the kernel?
[17:31] <ijn> hello everybody
[17:31] <vocx> njalar, VirtualBox is pretty straightforward, I wonder what else you did
[17:31] <bullgard4> After Gutsy dist-upgrading to Hardy my Gnome programs are in English although '~$ locale' returns LANG=de_DE.UTF8. How can I change that?
[17:32] <kwan> delta9thc1, its NOT an nvidia drivers issue.   I just fixed it, I used the rollback method.   But u know what's really really really bothering me?  Prior to Hardy, I remember 100% that when I dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, it lets you set the supported screen (MONITOR/LCD) resolution (which involved checking/unchecking "X" beside each mode).  Now it doesn't have it
[17:32] <njalar> I don't thnk so.
[17:32] <Deepthought> exco: yeah, I know... I tried for ages to get my triple screen setup to go, with no avail; dual proved easy though, but thatś on nvidia; ATI is easy too, but other cards need xorg.conf tweaking, wich can be troublesome to say the least; however, it can be done for sure, just do the hours of study, make backups of original conf files in case of failure and it should be an attainable goal; and once itś working you're never gonaa wanna go
[17:32] <Deepthought> back to one screen
[17:32] <soundray> bullgard4: is System-Administration-Language Support set to German?
[17:32] <ijn> does anybody knows how I can have equalizers working on exaile on ubuntu hardy??
[17:32] <Rioting_pacifist> ok thx :D
[17:33] <soundray> njalar: what's the output from 'uname -a'?
[17:33] <njalar> I installed some extra packages with Synaptic.
[17:33] <emma> njalar: At least to some extent it does this by default. It automatically found proprietary drivers for my ATi card for example. Try going to System>Administration>Hardware Drivers to see if anything can be enabled.
[17:33] <ew0k> Dreams: ty
[17:33] <babo> what's the best video editing software available for linux ?
[17:33] <njalar> Linux neofobulator 2.6.24-16-386 #1 Thu Apr 10 12:50:06 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[17:34] <emma> !best > babo
[17:34] <Deepthought> exco: Whooo, wait, you have got ATI !   Then it should really be as easy as apple pie; in nvidia I installed nvidia settings, where you can just configure it in gui, ati has the smae thing, different name, Iĺl look it up, just a second
[17:34] <njalar> emma: That gives me an empty list.
[17:34] <ijn> does anybody knows how I can have equalizers working on exaile on ubuntu hardy??
[17:34] <vocx> Rioting_pacifist, there is one little issue though, that current azureus 3.0.x.x uses some newer version of the SWT graphical libraries, so it spits errors sometimes, but hasn't affected me. However I haven't tried vuze, so I don't know if it'll work fine.
[17:34] <soundray> njalar: reboot and look in your grub menu (you may have to hit Esc to see it) whether there is an entry for a generic kernel. Boot that, and see if your wireless network comes back to life.
[17:35] <njalar> soundray: Ok. Will try.
[17:35] <ijn> how to exaile under hardy?
[17:35] <bullgard4> soundray: What do you mean by ' System-Administration-Language'?
[17:35] <ijn> equalizers?
[17:35] <soundray> bullgard4: are you on Gnome?
[17:35] <delta9thc1> kwan: ummhhh,ok    cd /etc/X11/      then    ls-al  and paste,not here ^__^
[17:35] <babo> emma: right. i think you get the idea though.
[17:35] <bullgard4> soundray: yes.
[17:35] <babo> let's not be too anal about it ...
[17:36] <AaronH> babo, http://www.openmovieeditor.org/
[17:36] <jc__> I updated flash to the beta 10 to see if it crashed less often then 9, now my flashbased screenlets don't work.  I'm assuming that its looking in the wrong spot how do I find where it looks for flash?
[17:36] <soundray> bullgard4: the menu on the left in the top panel, does that contain "System"?
[17:36] <emma> ijn - open a terminal and type: sudo apt-get install exaile
[17:36] <exco> Deepthought: you mean amdCCC (Ati Catalyst Control Center?)
[17:36] <babo> AaronH: thanks
[17:36] <Optimus55> hey does anyone know a trusty site online to do a firewall test??
[17:36] <bullgard4> soundray: yes.
[17:36] <kyncani> babo: install ubuntustudio-video, a selection someone has made to edit video
[17:36] <Deepthought> exco, ok, it'ss called MergeFB , thatś the mode you need, with the open source ati driver it can be done; now lemme look up some more stuff
[17:36] <Nostahl> how do i scan
[17:36] <delta9thc1> kwan: you should find many files like xorg.org_1 xorg.conf_2 etc...
[17:37] <emma> babo: indeed, I don't mean to be. But maybe especially with video editing, the answer to what is best depends a great deal on what you want to accomplish. The highest end stuff will not be comfortable for every day use, and the simplest stuff will not be sufficient for some users.
[17:37] <babo> kyncani, what video editing software does it bring with it ? Can i import youtube movies into it ?
[17:37] <exco> Deepthought: well, at the moment I'm using the latest fglrx drivers, so I'm going for BigDesktop
[17:37] <soundray> bullgard4: can you click on that?
[17:37] <eTranquility> amenado, still no luck with modprobe ath_pci. =/
[17:37] <babo> emma: ah ok. fair enough. ... thanks ...
[17:37] <emma> babo: what you are saying is interesting but not really on topic for a support channel. Use your chat client to search the Freenode channel list for "Ubuntu" and find one of the many channels suited for general Ubuntu chit-chat. :)
[17:37] <babo> :-)
[17:38] <kyncani> babo: don't know, but afaik it's the most official ubuntu video editing packages
[17:38] <vocx> emma, there is #ubuntu-offtopic for that
[17:38] <babo> emma: finding ways of using ubuntu as a platform for video editing sound on topic to me ...
[17:38] <kyncani> babo: as for the packages it brings, your package manager (synaptic) can show you that
[17:38] <babo> ok cheers
[17:38] <mixed> anyone know how to add mp3 functionality to k3b?
[17:39] <phenom_> is there any way to make ubuntu as snappy as Arch ?
[17:39] <Nostahl> what do i do to setup my epson so i can scan documents from it
[17:39] <quantum> mixed: gstreamer?
[17:39] <emma> babo - good luck.
[17:39] <bullgard4> soundray: yes. --  The Language Support dialog window lists as the only supported language 'Deutsch' (which stands for 'German').
[17:39] <soundray> !info libk3b2-mp3 | mixed
[17:40] <sebastian_> hi
[17:40] <soundray> bullgard4: did your upgrade process complete? Check with 'sudo apt-get -f install'
[17:40] <sebastian_> i love ubunu
[17:40] <soundray> !info libk3b2-mp3 gutsy | mixed
[17:40] <Deepthought> exco: in synaptic you can find radeontool, that should allow you to set the output options, so dual screen should be no sweat if you install it; probably it's even already installed, try (in console): sudo radeontool
[17:40] <sebastian_> its awesome
[17:40] <quantum> sebastian_: i know :-)
[17:40] <kwan> delta9thc1, I fixed it already.  The rollback method is always handy, I always resort to rollback method when I can't fix an X related issue. :>  Thx for your effort in trying to help tho.   I tried adding 'AlwaysRestartServer=true' to gdm.conf-custom but it didnt fix it
[17:41] <ew0k> *shut
[17:41] <babo> emma: thanks
[17:41] <sebastian_> i am from argentina
[17:41] <emma> babo: :)
[17:41] <quantum> am german!
[17:41] <quantum> *i am
[17:41] <xpistos> I have an easy question and a difficult one
[17:41] <xpistos> easy question
[17:41] <AcornAcorn> why do applications not get removed from the application menu when I remove them?
[17:42] <vocx> kwan, I think I've read about dpkg-reconfigure thing you mention, but I don't recall where. Might want to read the forums, I'm sure someone knows.
[17:42] <xpistos> how do I get my nick to auto register when I log into xchat?
[17:42] <dedmakar> sercus
[17:42] <kyncani> ew0k: crash as in kernel crash or X crash ?
[17:42] <quantum> servus
[17:42] <soundray> AcornAcorn: they will vanish from it eventually. You may have to relogin, or reboot
[17:42] <sebastian_> i configured realtek wireless card
[17:42] <robg_> AcornAcorn: I find on my system that Ubuntu is merging software source channels.
[17:42] <bullgard4> soundray: yes: http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/226400/
[17:42] <dmsuperman> During video playback, I get a little bit of stutter once in a while. How might I determine what causes this? It's definitely not the hardware, I have a powerful gaming machine.
[17:42] <sebastian_> it was difficult but its working =)
[17:42] <xpistos> instead of typing in /msg nickserv identify "password"
[17:43] <ew0k> the screen goes black and the capslock button dosent work, but im not sure, ive onli just started using linux, i think it started after i installed the ati drivers and kde
[17:43] <Deepthought> exco: this might be the one then (sorry I nissed some of your earlier replies): http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=301941
[17:43] <soundray> bullgard4: can you try switching to English in the dialog I pointed you to, then switch back to Deutsch?
[17:43] <exco> thanks, Deepthought. I'll try setting up xorg.conf manually. I'll probably be restarting X a few times - but I'll report back how it went. The CCC also has gui to set everything up, just that as soon as I try sth both screens (atm mirror mode) get totally messed up :-)
[17:43] <mixed> soundtray, so how do I install libk3b2-mp3, sorry, im still a noob :-(
[17:43] <bullgard4> soundray: I will try and report.
[17:43] <xpistos> 2) Does Zune support .ogg ?
[17:43] <exco> that's the one I'm following right now, Deepthought
[17:43] <emma> mixed: open a terminal and type: sudo apt-get install libk3b2-mp3
[17:43] <friedtofu> xpistos: Xchat - network list - click on your server (irc.freenode.net) and click edit - and go to nickserv password and add that
[17:44] <mixed> quantum, I installed every gstreamer plugin I found , i still cannot use mp3 on k3b
[17:44] <Deepthought> exco, that one is about the aticonfig tool, so maybe you won't have to do the xorg thing !
[17:44] <soundray> mixed: 'sudo apt-get install libk3b2-mp3'. After that, restart k3b
[17:44] <emma> soundray: see above. :)
[17:44] <xpistos> friedtofu: Thanks buddy
[17:44] <bazhang> mixed, ubuntu-restricted-extras isntalled? and the win32codecs from medibuntu.org?
[17:44] <xpistos> does IPod support .ogg files?
[17:44] <mixed> soundray, ty ty ty ty!!! that one did it, youre my hewoe!!!!!!!!
[17:45] <soundray> xpistos: no
[17:45] <dimedo> is there a documentation on mounting the root fs from an encrypted lvm partition around somewhere?
[17:45] <bazhang> xpistos, only with rockbox firmware
[17:45] <kyncani> ew0k: you may google for acpi or apic fix for ubuntu grub, but if you're new to linux, I guess you'd be better off just living with the crash on shutdown (which may be acceptable), or just keep the box 24h on
[17:45] <soundray> mixed: thank emma, she beat me
[17:45] <xpistos> soundray: thanks
[17:45] <sebastian_> mixed what is your version?
[17:45] <Deepthought> exco: Ok then, good luck !   And remember, itś really really (really !) worth the trouble, it rocks; you ĺ  have double the fun of using yer rig (imagine watching nasa-tv on top while working on the other scren etc
[17:46] <Broadcom> i just updated kubuntu, an then the computer crashed, and now i can only log in under text based
[17:46] <xpistos> bazhang: rockbox for IPods or Zune
[17:46] <s3a> is there a limit on how much swap a system with 256 mb ram can use?
[17:46] <legend2440> exco: http://jen3ral.wordpress.com/2008/04/27/ubuntu-804-ati-big-desktop/
[17:46] <emma> Broadcom: not sure about this but if you don't get a resolution here definitely try #kubuntu
[17:46] <bazhang> xpistos, the ipod
[17:46] <mixed> EMMA, ty, sorry, didnt see your post!!!!  you should use color like soundray, I mean, for such ashort nickname LoL
[17:46] <Broadcom> emma: thanks
[17:46] <friedtofu> s3a: there isnt. but using swap is pretty slow... :/
[17:46] <emma> mixed - you are very welcome. I didn't think any of us were using colours :)
[17:46] <Deepthought> s3a: all-time max for swap is 2 gig; a 256 will probably never use more than 512 meg...
[17:47] <kyncani> Broadcom: login in console mode and "sudo apt-get -f install"
[17:47] <xpistos> bazhang: thank you man
[17:47] <ew0k> kyncani: its not that big of a problem, im just concerned that it may cause hardware damage or something. I can live with it, i certainly wont be moving back to vista, ive fallen in love with ubuntu, lol, il chack out what you suggested, thanks
[17:47] <Broadcom> kyncani: thanks
[17:47] <xpistos> Two for two today at casa del ubuntu forums!
[17:47] <mixed> emma , youre my hewoe!!  i am now going to burnGiants Stadium in joisey
[17:47] <aidan_> how do I setup dual screen?
[17:47] <xpistos> I love you guys! That is why linux kicks ass!
[17:47] <emma> mixed -- I'm happy things are going your way :P
[17:47] <mixed> sorry, mean tot say i am now going to burn a CD then go to giants stadium in jersey
[17:47] <Flare183> !dualhead | aidan_
[17:47] <s3a> friedtofu: ya i no its slow :( but its my temp comp cuz my actual comp keeps crashing cuz of i think PSU problems so this is my temp pc for liek 2 months till i get quad core with 4 gb ram
[17:48] <exco> where's the difference between section monitor and screen (xorg.conf)
[17:48] <salah_> There is a annoying problem with my sound on Ubuntu. Only one device can be used at a time. If I watch a flash video with Firefox, I have to quit the firefox process before starting the media player. Any idea how to fix this problem?
[17:48] <kyncani> ew0k: all right then, from memory, may try keywords grub (always) and acpi or noapic or nolapic. Also consider using open source drivers for X
[17:48] <delta9thc1> kwan: understood,but you should replaced your xorg  with the old one,imho
[17:48] <Rafabe> Can someone please give me a Grub command that will show the hdd name (0,0  or  1,0) as well as the size? I need to know which of my hard drive is 0 and which is 1, for bootloader purposes, but have no idea how I can tell. If I could associate the 0,0 or 1,0 with a size or model...
[17:48] <bullgard4> soundray: Through the dialog mentioned I did de-install the German language packs and installed the English language packs. I cannot see any difference (Some GNOME menu items are still in German.) Do I need to re-start X in order to take effect?
[17:48] <AaronH> babo, I sent you a pm
[17:48] <kwan> vocx really?  cool to know.  In 7.10 I remember I had to Explicitly set the supported screen resolutions for my LCD for X to realize that my lcd supports 1920x1200.  This time what happened was when I for no apparent reason changed refresh rate from 50Hz to 51Hz, then the next time I reboot, The only available resolution mode detected was 640x480 lolz.  Now that I'm in Hardy, I try to dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[17:48] <kwan> expect that I would manually enable the supported resolution, but its not there.
[17:48] <soundray> Rafabe: try geometry (hd0) and geometry (hd1)
[17:48] <Rafabe> thank you
[17:48] <kwan> delta9thc1, yep and that's how I fixed it (I call it the rollback method) =)
[17:49] <eTranquility> Hi, can someone help me? "sudo modprobe ath_pci" gives "FATAL: Error inserting ath_pci (/lib/modules/2.6.24-16-386/ubuntu/wireless/ath_pci.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)"
[17:49] <robg_> kwan: most problems on this channel are self-inflicted.
[17:49] <kyncani> Rafabe: don't know for the size, but for the name, look into the builtin "find" command
[17:49] <Rafabe> thanks
[17:49] <babo> AaronH, ah ok thanks. I've installed the ubuntu package instead, I'll see how it works out ...
[17:49] <ex17> hi what's the kernel version when you install gutsy gibbons?
[17:49] <emma> robg_: I would not go that far.
[17:49] <soundray> ex17: 2.6.22
[17:49] <ex17> thanks soundray
[17:49] <robg_> emma: more than 50%.
[17:50] <Deepthought> exco: monitor is the specifics of the 'machine'(the monitor itself): refresh rates etc, the screen section is about the resolution U use, n16 or 32 bit color and position (above or right of the other etc)
[17:50] <exco> thanks
[17:50] <ex17> and hardy heron is 2.6.24 right?
[17:50] <soundray> ex17: yes
[17:50] <kwan> exco, yes
[17:50] <Deepthought> exco: did you see the link to dualhead wiki a bit up ?
[17:51] <Broadcom> kyncani: nothing hapened, just 1 not upgraded
[17:51] <exco> yes
[17:51] <augusto> hi guys I just made a bridge with brctl to make the computer a wireless access point. computer gives internet has a gateway..however I can't access in the machine doing the bridge.can't even ping. why?
[17:52] <dedmakar> HALLO LEUTE
[17:52] <kyncani> Broadcom: no luck then, (apt-get -f install  is for when an upgrade breaks in the mmiddle of the upgrade process, to finish properly the upgrade)
[17:52] <soundray> !de | dedmakar
[17:52] <emma> robg_: I just don't think it's best or accurate to imply that most ubuntu problems are someone's fault, especially the users. But let's leave it at that, for this channel. :)
[17:52] <Broadcom> kyncani: it had finished
[17:52] <quantum> mixed: did you install the lib-k3b2-mp3 package?
[17:52] <quantum> mixed: maybe the name is a bit different
[17:52] <anirudh0> emma, well, they mostly are...the  number of people who find actual bugs is less than 1%
[17:52] <soundray> quantum: yes (not sure if he or she is still listening)
[17:53] <quantum> soundray: okay... :-)
[17:53] <robg_> emma: hear that emma, anirudh0 is helping me out.
[17:53] <kyncani> Broadcom: yep, well, you may try "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" if X is not running, or "X -configure" if X is not running, or switch to gdm if it's a kdm problem. (just some random guesses)
[17:53] <soundray> quantum: and it worked, too.
[17:53] <anirudh0> emma, robg_ thats because robg_ is right :)
[17:54] <anirudh0> in this case atleast
[17:54] <s3a> does any1 here no of an irc channel for politics cuz i need to no sumtin for skool project?
[17:54] <emma> yes thank you. Let's move on to helping people now instead of worrying who's fault it is.
[17:54] <Rioting_pacifist> #politics
[17:54] <soundray> You're all wrong to talk about this here.
[17:54] <bazhang> anirudh0, :)
[17:54] <quantum> soundray: okay, my recovery worked too =)
[17:54] <eTranquility> Hi, can someone help me? "sudo modprobe ath_pci" gives "FATAL: Error inserting ath_pci (/lib/modules/2.6.24-16-386/ubuntu/wireless/ath_pci.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)"
[17:54] <anirudh0> fault?
[17:54] <kyncani> Broadcom: also update&upgrade again, as if the problem may have already been spotted and fixed (don't count on it)
[17:54] <robg_> emma: there is too much tampering with stuff that should be left alone.
[17:54] <anirudh0> ok
[17:54] <delta9thc1> kwan: i've nvidia too,and if you've already done it,you can only reinstalling nvidia's driver,remove it with --purge ,otherwise you could using nvidia-xconfig
[17:54] <bullgard4> soundray: I have done as you told me. (But I did not leave X all the time.) I cannot see any difference to the prior state.
[17:54] <exco> that didn't go too well :-) (1st try) - somewhat pink screen... at least one is still working
[17:55] <bazhang> Broadcom, what about choosing something else in login session (eg gnome)
[17:55] <Broadcom> kyncani: thats kina hard, i cant connect to internet
[17:55] <soundray> quantum: I'm glad. I've heard people complain about this before, not all of them could recover  their data. Be careful with Vista, don't trust it.
[17:55] <Broadcom> bazhang: how do i switch login sessions?
[17:55] <quantum> soundray: i'll go off now! thx again for the good help!!
[17:55] <soundray> bullgard4: did it install any further packages?
[17:55] <quantum> soundray: yes, i wount trust again ^^
[17:56] <bazhang> Broadcom, you can get to the login window? xserver that is?
[17:56] <anirudh0> Broadcom, in gdm login screen, choose options->sessions
[17:56] <quantum> soundray: *won't
[17:56] <fattmoley> Hey can anybody recommend a program for unzipping rar files?  I have several that archive manager can't handle
[17:56] <kyncani> Broadcom: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm  and select gdm instead of kdm,(if it's a kdm problem,)
[17:56] <quantum> soundray: bye!
[17:56] <soundray> quantum bye
[17:56] <anirudh0> fattmoley, unrar
[17:56] <ex17> I got Hardy, can I put previous kernel 2.5.22? Sorry for the noob question xD
[17:56] <soundray> !rar | fattmoley
[17:56] <anirudh0> fattmoley, install unrar, then archive manager will be able to handle rar files
[17:56] <bullgard4> soundray: I suppose you are referring to language packs. --  I did not install any other language pack through this dialog window.
[17:56] <kyncani> Broadcom: you switch login session in the graphical login manager (there's a graphical menu somewhere)
[17:57] <Deepthought> exco: eheheh... ;-)
[17:57] <fattmoley> thanks for the help
[17:57] <Deepthought> exco: keep trying !
[17:57] <soundray> ex17: it's possible, but it's not recommended. Isn't there another solution?
[17:57] <Broadcom> kyncani: the whole problem is i cant get into that
[17:57] <Muhammad_Saad> Hello, I want to make a custom Ubuntu based live CD. Can someone provide help?
[17:57] <exco> 2.nd try
[17:57] <kyncani> Broadcom: you don't have the graphical login manager ?
[17:58] <anirudh0> Muhammad_Saad, hi...check out debuntu.com howto on doing that
[17:58] <Broadcom> kyncani: nope, it will not work
[17:58] <soundray> bullgard4: is language-pack-gnome-de installed?
[17:58] <bazhang> Broadcom, what about command prompt?
[17:58] <StealthCP> join #ctrlproxy
[17:58] <kyncani> Broadcom: even if you "sudo invoke-rc.d kdm restart" ? (or gdm instead of kdm)
[17:58] <StealthCP> oops, apologies
[17:58] <Broadcom> bazhang: ctrl-alt-1 works
[17:58] <Broadcom> kyncani: ill try
[17:58] <StealthCP> not an advertisement, left out the /
[17:58] <soundray> ex17: what are you trying to do?
[17:58] <anirudh0> Broadcom, install another login manager(kdm or xdm)..then do sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[17:58] <ProwL> you can use the update-alternatives script to set your default login manager, and your default wm (afaik)
[17:59] <anirudh0> Broadcom, and choose an alternate login manager
[17:59] <bullgard4> soundray: language-pack-gnome-de is installed. language-pack-gnome-de-base is also installed.
[17:59] <exco> even worse :-P (a somewhat weird mirror mode with one screen with vertical black tears and like 640x480 *waaah*)
[17:59] <peternix> What's a good newsreader for ubuntu?
[17:59] <Broadcom> anirudh0: i cant, i cant connect to internet
[18:00] <ProwL> peternix: raggle or snownews are popular CLI newsreaders.
[18:00] <anirudh0> Broadcom, then login in the non-graphical shell
[18:00] <anirudh0> Broadcom, one sec
[18:00] <Broadcom> anirudh0: i did
[18:00] <soundray> bullgard4: can you create a new user, and see if you get a German environment when you log in with its name?
[18:00] <kyncani> Broadcom: if none of the above work, then it's a X problem as opposed to a kdm/gdm problem or kde session problem, and you may 1) sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg 2) try X -configure and follow instructions (and google too)
[18:00] <anirudh0> Broadcom, i'll post a file on pastebin
[18:00] <remu> hey guys, I use gnome player to play my video files, one of my files has I believe ac3 audio, I was wondering if there is a way to boost the volume for ac3 audio? I used to know how to do that in vlc, but I was wondering how I could do this with gnome player...any ideas?
[18:01] <spl0iT> Can somebody help me with getting Wine and Counterstrike: Source to work correctly on my Inspiron 1501 on the newest version of Ubnutu?
[18:01] <Nostahl> sploit #wine
[18:01] <remu> spl0iT: what seems to be the issue?
[18:01] <peternix> ProwL: looking for a gui one
[18:01] <kyncani> !X | Broadcom
[18:01] <robg_> remu: since I use Pulse Audio I have sufficient volume.
[18:01] <anirudh0> Broadcom, type "echo "exec gnome-session" >> ~/.xinitrc"
[18:01] <Broadcom> too much information at once
[18:01] <emma> robg_ , anirudh0 in the future if you would like to argue something with me, please highlight me in #ubuntuforums because I'm trying to stay very focused here. :)
[18:02] <remu> I think I have mine set to pulse audio....normally I have sufficient volume, but I have the audio running through the tv speakers, and thats not getting me sufficient
[18:02] <spl0iT> remu: I got Steam and CS:S installed using Wine and that seems like it is good to go, but when I start CS:S through Wine, the game loads up, but it is flashing really fast so that you can't see anything. The menu is still there though because if I hover my mouse around I can hear the clicks from the menu buttons
[18:02] <anirudh0> Broadcom, then type startx
[18:02] <redarrow_> hello, can anyone say what will happen if i delete my id_rsa private key in the directory $home/.ssh/ ?
[18:03] <Nostahl> sploit do you have compiz running
[18:03] <anirudh0> emma, I thought it was a discussion, not an argument :)
[18:03] <ProwL> peternix: rss or usenet?
[18:03] <remu> spl0iT: try turning compiz off
[18:03] <anirudh0> Broadcom, works?
[18:03] <soundray> redarrow_: remote hosts that have the .pub counterpart of your key won't let you log in through key-based authentication any more.
[18:03] <emma> anirudh0: :)
[18:03] <Broadcom> anirudh0: nothing, i get connection reset by peer, then no such process: server error
[18:03] <anirudh0> Broadcom, ?connection reset
[18:03] <robg_> emma: it is just an observation not a accusation.
[18:03] <spl0iT> Nostahl: I thought that may have bee nthe issue so I found a guide on how to disable compiz by editing the startup thing to use metacity and the issue is still there
[18:03] <spl0iT> Is there a way for me to verify Compiz is not running?
[18:04] <Broadcom> anirudh0: gets a lot of errors, that is the last 2
[18:04] <anirudh0> Broadcom, what did you do exactly? please pastebin the full output
[18:04] <the_doctor> now enybody a theme that lets look ubultu linux like vin xp?
[18:04] <the_doctor> win sorry
[18:04] <redarrow_> soundray: there is no one who has the key.... but i have forgotten the password i used so i need to generate a new one?
[18:04] <Broadcom> anirudh0: i cant, i cant copy/paste, or anything else!
[18:04] <bazhang> !themes | the_doctor
[18:04] <soundray> redarrow_: yes
[18:05] <Deepthought> exco: you do know you can reset x-server with ctl-alt-backspace instead of resetting whole machine, right ?
[18:05] <anirudh0> Broadcom, send me the result of "cat ~/.xinitrc" by Private message
[18:05] <makaraki> Hi there people, so I have a problem I was following a tutorial about a pendrive with kubuntu8 and when I try to boot it it is aking me that there is no image
[18:05] <redarrow_> soundray: can you help me how to do this?
[18:05] <eTranquility> Hi, can someone help me? "sudo modprobe ath_pci" gives "FATAL: Error inserting ath_pci (/lib/modules/2.6.24-16-386/ubuntu/wireless/ath_pci.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)" after I installed kernal modules "sudo aptitude install linux-ubuntu-modules-`uname -r` linux-generic"
[18:06] <anirudh0> makaraki, bootable pen drive?
[18:06] <Broadcom> anirudh0: exec gnome-session
[18:06] <soundray> redarrow_: 'ssh-keygen', then follow the prompts
[18:06] <peternix> ProwL: usenix
[18:06] <makaraki> yes anirufh0
[18:06] <anirudh0> Broadcom, type this as well "echo "exec dbus-launch --exit-with-session gnome-session" >> ~/.xinitrc"
[18:06] <makaraki> yes <anirudh0>
[18:06] <ProwL> peternix: then my suggestions were pointless. although im interested in what your final choice will be :P
[18:06] <anirudh0> Broadcom, note the quotes
[18:07] <anirudh0> makaraki, try puppylinux or DamnSmallLinux
[18:07] <peternix> Just tried pan
[18:07] <anirudh0> makaraki, ubuntu is too bloated for a pen drive
[18:07] <babo> kino won't import mp4 video files ? It keeps asking me to convert them to dv, then it refuses to import dv, it says that they're just text files ...
[18:07] <babo> :-(
[18:07] <peternix> was suggested by someone in #ubuntu-chat
[18:07] <exco> Deepthought: that's what I'm doing... otherwise you wouldn't see me for at least 2 minutes :-)
[18:07] <ProwL> peternix: there is 'knode' which uses kde libs.
[18:07] <bazhang> !usb | makaraki see this please
[18:07] <anirudh0> babo, try avidemux. it does much better than kino in general
[18:07] <Deepthought> exco: I sort of figured.. either that, or your machine is amazingly fast...
[18:07] <peternix> I use gnome
[18:08] <exco> well... I'm doing the reading and editing and restarting X and and and... (or I'm just slow)
[18:08] <makaraki> ok bazhang, anirudh0 and ubottu thanks I will keep an eye on those docs!
[18:08] <anirudh0> peternix, cant evolution handle usenet?
[18:08] <Broadcom> anirudh0: nothing
[18:08] <soundray> !pm | ex17
[18:08] <peternix> anirudh0: don't think so
[18:09] <anirudh0> peternix, via a plugin?
[18:09] <soundray> ex17: why do you want an outdated kernel?
[18:09] <Deepthought> exco: why not try the aticonfig tool ?
[18:09] <peternix> anirudh0: don't know
[18:09] <chv> do someone know, how I can install Adobe AIR under 64 Bit Hardy?
[18:09] <akincer> I've got sound but no picture with DVDs on Hardy. Anybody know how to fix it?
[18:09] <anirudh0> Broadcom, startx does nothing? no output at all?
[18:09] <m13> chv , x64 not suported as i know
[18:10] <chv> no way to force install it?
[18:10] <Broadcom> anirudh0: it does the same thing as before
[18:10] <m13> chv , not build for x64
[18:10] <pulse> akincer: have you downloaded the livdvdcss2 libraries?
[18:10] <Deepthought> exco, or sudo radeontool (already on the system, most probably)
[18:10] <akincer> pulse: Yes
[18:10] <soundray> chv: do you have .deb packages for i386?
[18:10] <anirudh0> Broadcom, you never told me _what_ it did before!
[18:10] <pulse> hmm
[18:10] <ex17> well I'm playing around with scapy, it's a network utility tool, you can send, receive packets and many other things, when I had gutsy, I could do eerything I wanted to
[18:10] <Broadcom> anirudh0: no, wait, it says screens found, but none have a useable configuration
[18:10] <exco> Deepthought: now I have a 20.1" magnifier :-)
[18:11] <anirudh0> Broadcom, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[18:11] <ex17> now that I have Hardy I can only sniff packets it seems, and
[18:11] <redarrow_> soundray: when the remote host has ubuntu 7.10 installed ... how can i use my just generated key?
[18:11] <chv> soundray: no, only the .bin file
[18:11] <anirudh0> Broadcom, and select defaults
[18:11] <pulse> akincer: hehe sorry can't help beyond that...what program are you using to view DVDs?
[18:11] <akincer> pulse: Tried both Totem and Mplayer. Both have same problem
[18:11] <shadowxp> Splash screen manager is missing from kcontrol; how can i add it back to kcontrol?
[18:11] <ex17> so I though it could be something new, and since I don't have the time, I thought I might just go back to the previous version, soundray
[18:11] <Broadcom> anirudh0: i hit ok for everything
[18:11] <Deepthought> exco: yeah, I have had all these wonderful things happen when I was working on it too... ;-)
[18:12] <pulse> akincer: did you download the w32codecs or w64codecs packages?
[18:12] <Broadcom> anirudh0: still does not work
[18:12] <chv> if i would have the deb I would know how to force install it
[18:12] <Nostahl> this will get your dvd sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh
[18:12] <Nostahl> playing
[18:12] <akincer> I downloaded whatever comes with the Ubuntu Restricted Extras
[18:12] <exco> would you mind taking a quick look at my xorg.conf, Deepthought http://pastebin.com/d42c91186
[18:12] <chv> but its only the bin
[18:12] <soundray> redarrow_: copy id_rsa.pub to the remote machine. On the remote machine, do 'cat id_rsa.pub > ~/.ssh/authorized_keys'
[18:12] <anirudh0> Broadcom, reboot and try please..it should work
[18:12] <Deepthought> exco: never really got to figure out exactly how to fix all those mishaps; nvidia-settings was my rescue
[18:12] <babo> AaronH, video4.mp4 failed to load ERROR: Video framerates other than 25 are not supported
[18:12] <babo> This is not an image file
[18:12] <hardhatpat> how do i mount an ftp volume locally
[18:12] <robg_> Broadcom: did you download: libdvdcss2 ?
[18:12] <bjwebb> hi
[18:12] <bjwebb> does the live cd need a hard disk to run?
[18:12] <Nostahl> Broadcom type this sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh
[18:12] <Broadcom> robg_: nope, i dont think so
[18:12] <Effex> Uhm, could someone remind me how to detach a screen? :P
[18:12] <bazhang> robg_, that wont help here
[18:12] <anirudh0> bjwebb, no
[18:12] <babo> AaronH, it'll only import videos with framerates of 25 ? that's a bit weird no ?
[18:13] <Broadcom> Nostahl: im restarting
[18:13] <astro76> Effex: ctrl+a, d
[18:13] <Effex> ahh, thanks :D
[18:13] <Deepthought> exco: I'm afraid I'm not really an expert on that, but paste it anhow on the ppaste-page, we'll see
[18:13] <bjwebb> anirudh0: what might be causing it to only give me a busybox shell then?
[18:13] <tao_leaf> anyone knows how to get avant window manager working correctly on ubuntu hardy heron?
[18:13] <sschillachi> hi, when I try to boot linux using the xp ntldr all I get is the word grub on screen, why is it freezing?
[18:13] <Deepthought> !paste |exco
[18:13] <akincer> Nostahl: I've tried that and I've got audio but no picture
[18:13] <chv> so.. if adobe air doesn't run under Linux 64 Bit, someone knows a _good_ Linux Twitter client?
[18:13] <robg_> bazhang: I have indeed the impression that there are now differences between USA and Europe.
[18:13] <anirudh0> bjwebb, it should show an error before the busybox shell..what is it
[18:13] <soundray> ex17: have you installed python-scapy from the hardy repository?
[18:13] <pulse> crap! I forgot how I fixed that
[18:13] <chv> because twhirl uses air
[18:13] <d4t4min3r> my sound is messed up, it works but the sound icon next to the date up top right is not working right, i have to jiggle the sound up and down in preffrences to get the sound to sound right, adn the icon slide bar doesnt effect the sound at all
[18:13] <bjwebb> anirudh0: ah, ill get the error
[18:13] <pulse> something about changing the Xv drivers to No-XV
[18:13] <exco> Deepthought: ah, ok. (I just set it up to "work" for my internal screen, but it's not really done) http://pastebin.com/d42c91186
[18:14] <bazhang> robg_, his issues have zero to do with medibuntu.
[18:14] <pulse> are you using an accelerated driver, akincer?
[18:14] <emma> !awn | tao_leaf
[18:14] <akincer> pulse: No. Intel graphics
[18:14] <anirudh0> anyone knows how to stop these messages "X has left", "X has joined"
[18:14] <Broadcom> anirudh0: still no graphics
[18:14] <pulse> hmm
[18:14] <anirudh0> in xchat
[18:14] <d4t4min3r> can someone help me with my sound issue
[18:14] <soundray> redarrow_: make sure the file has the correct permissions: 'sudo chmod 600 ~/.ssh/authorized' on the remote
[18:14] <astro76> anirudh0: right click on channel name
[18:14] <robg_> bazhang: OK possible. Difficult to tell.
[18:14] <ex17> wow, indeed soundray, I haven't..
[18:14] <bazhang> anirudh0, xchat?
[18:15] <akincer> pulse: I had DVD working Gutsy, so I _know_ it can work
[18:15] <ex17> and why can't do a simple socket connection too?
[18:15] <anirudh0> astro76, and then?
[18:15] <soundray> ex17: that may fix your issues more easily.
[18:15] <astro76> anirudh0: uncheck show join/part messages or something to that effect
[18:15] <bazhang> anirudh0, right click chan name
[18:15] <anirudh0> bazhang, xchat 2.8.4
[18:15] <chv> akincer: which player?
[18:15] <ex17> I go try =)
[18:15] <akincer> Mplayer and Totem both have sound but no picture
[18:15] <anirudh0> astro76, k...thanks
[18:15] <Broadcom> Nostahl: command not found
[18:16] <chv> have you try to play the dvd with VLC?
[18:16] <Ashfire908> Where would I put configuration files for configuring routes/ips/iptables when an interface comes up in /etc?
[18:16] <bazhang> Broadcom, boot in recovery mode; we can then lower your res from there
[18:16] <pulse> akincer: do you have the medibuntu respositories installed?
[18:16] <akincer> chv: No, but unless I'm missing something, I shouldn't have to. I'll try that now.
[18:16] <akincer> pulse: Yes
[18:16] <ogre> how do i add folder to my ipod using rythmbox? sorry i'd ask somewhere else but i cant find a good spot and im in a hurry.
[18:16] <Broadcom> bazhang: im not sure how
[18:17] <bazhang> Broadcom, get into grub menu
[18:17] <anirudh0> Broadcom, you mean no compiz, or no X?
[18:17] <Broadcom> anirudh0: i cant see anything exept text on black
[18:17] <Deepthought> exco: like I said, I'm not really well educated on that; but it seems to me there should be at least a second monitor section, and probably a second screen section as well, also an option xinerama=on; but that is about as far as I can see; xinerama I'm not so sure about since it's sort of implied already by bigdesktop, second screen section idem
[18:17] <anirudh0> Broadcom, then you have no X
[18:17] <akincer> VLC has sound but no video as well
[18:17] <anirudh0> Broadcom, deep trouble
[18:17] <chv> ...
[18:17] <Broadcom> anirudh0: whoopie
[18:17] <Deepthought> exco: try those two tools; see what they come iup with and tweak that ?!
[18:17] <bjwebb> anirudh0: mp-bios gus: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC
[18:17] <pulse> akincer:  how about the gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly?
[18:17] <anirudh0> Broadcom, startx gives what exactly?
[18:17] <bjwebb> anirudh0: and then "hda: driver not ready for command"
[18:18] <anirudh0> bjwebb, talking to me?
[18:18] <akincer> Not sure. Gonna check now
[18:18] <Broadcom> anirudh0: hold on
[18:18] <bjwebb> anirudh0: yeah, thats the error before the busybox shell
[18:18] <akincer> pulse: Yes
[18:18] <eTranquility>  Hi, can someone help me? "sudo modprobe ath_pci" gives "FATAL: Error inserting ath_pci (/lib/modules/2.6.24-16-386/ubuntu/wireless/ath_pci.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)" after I installed kernal modules "sudo aptitude install linux-ubuntu-modules-`uname -r` linux-generic"
[18:19] <chv> hmh
[18:19] <anirudh0> bjwebb, that means you sound driver is'nt getting loaded...atleast thats what it seems to me
[18:19] <pulse> akincer: hmm have you tried xine? maybe even installing the libraries required by it could work
[18:19] <s3a> is there any program for ubuntu that acts like a student guide for skoolwork help for ppl all over the world?
[18:19] <exco> thanks, Deepthought. I'll try to find the modelines for both screens and do it right this time. two tools?
[18:19] <anirudh0> bjwebb, i'm not too familiar with sound card troubles...maybe someone else can help
[18:19] <akincer> pulse: I'll try that. But to say I'm disappointed with how difficult this is would be an understatement.
[18:19] <bjwebb> anirudh0: sound driver? is that all
[18:19] <pulse> akincer: xine-ui
[18:19] <pulse> akincer: yeah well...legal problems...DRM and all that
[18:20] <anirudh0> bjwebb, oops
[18:20] <bjwebb> anirudh0: why should sound card stop the whole system from working?
[18:20] <anirudh0> bjwebb, sorry
[18:20] <bjwebb> okay
[18:20] <akincer> pulse: It still shouldn't be hard to enter a few manual commands--legal issues or no
[18:20] <anirudh0> bjwebb, hda refers to the hard disk :)
[18:20] <Deepthought> exco, yeah: aticonfig and/or radeontool; the latter is probably already on your sys, try: sudo radeontool  in a console
[18:20] <z0man> I am having a problem with checking that my AMD dual core is being power managed by the kernel
[18:20] <anirudh0> bjwebb, have gotten so used to sda, that i forgot
[18:20] <anirudh0> bjwebb, you have an IDE disk?
[18:20] <soundray> z0man: are you using gnome?
[18:21] <z0man> ya
[18:21] <pulse> akincer: I know what you mean and I sympathize with you
[18:21] <astro76> !edubuntu | s3a
[18:21] <z0man> I found that for my cool n quiet to work
[18:21] <exco> Deepthought: can I do that even with my non working xorg.conf?
[18:21] <z0man> I need to install either K7 or K8
[18:21] <z0man> K7 is 32bit kernel
[18:21] <soundray> !enter | z0man
[18:21] <bjwebb> anirudh0: it has a hard disk, but i think its broke
[18:21] <z0man> and K8 is 64
[18:21] <akincer> pulse: I love Ubuntu, but these sorts of issues need to be resolved yesterday for Ubuntu to make traction on the desktop
[18:21] <z0man> sorry
[18:21] <bjwebb> anirudh0: hence why I was asking if it would work without
[18:21] <babo> AaronH, it sucks dude ...
[18:21] <anirudh0> bjwebb, then that could be the problem
[18:21] <anirudh0> bjwebb, try :)
[18:21] <s3a> astro76: but cant i just use the apps in edubuntu? and not have to install the OS?
[18:21] <babo> anirudh0, cheers ...
[18:21] <arcsky> is there any nice programs for slipstream ubuntu ?
[18:22] <z0man> I wish to make sure cool n quiet is enabled .....Yet I am scared about fiddling
[18:22] <bjwebb> anirudh0: so if I actually remove the disk, might that help?
[18:22] <astro76> s3a: yes, or edubuntu is actually not a derivative anymore, but just an add on you can install with sudo apt-get install edubuntu-desktop
[18:22] <bazhang> Broadcom, what is happening; did you get into recovery mode?
[18:22] <soundray> z0man: have you installed any of those alternative kernels (k7, k8 etc.)?
[18:22] <anirudh0> bjwebb, it should...but i must warn that i have never tried it..or seen or heard anyone try it
[18:22] <astro76> s3a: but there package list would be a good place to start ;)
[18:22] <bjwebb> anirudh0: okies
[18:22] <z0man> I have this generic-linux one installed
[18:22] <astro76> s3a: *their
[18:22] <akincer> How very strange: "Xine extra plugins cannot be installed on your computer type (i386)"
[18:22] <Broadcom> bazhang: im not sure how to, hold on, i just to a screen shot and am giving it to anirudh0
