[13:49] <Bupsss> the file system of my home partition, went off
[13:49] <Bupsss> everything disappeared and it created a new home folder
[13:49] <f00fyf00f3rz> Vern_Ulven: So you chose "Try Ubuntu" instead of install and it went blank? Try Ubuntu will load the os and you can install from the live desktop
[13:49] <ezw3473> cousteau: on my system (older ubuntu), the strcmp manpage is installed as /usr/share/man/man3/strcmp.3.gz
[13:49] <Bupsss> with a fschk i managed to get back the files in the lost and found folder
[13:49] <cousteau> OK... I was writing "strcomp
[13:49] <ezw3473> cousteau: and  man strcmp  just works
[13:49] <Bupsss> but now, i'm scared that it could happen again
[13:49] <cousteau> " instead of "strcmp"
[13:50] <marcelkoopman> Bupsss, what happened
[13:50] <ezw3473> cousteau: oh okay
[13:50] <Bupsss> what do you recommend?
[13:50] <Bupsss> marcelkoopman dont really know
[13:50] <FreeFull> I compiled a new kernel, and now that I switch to a virtual console I only get a blank screen (when I log in and write a command, it does take an effect. I just don't see anything on the screen)
[13:50] <Vern_Ulven> f00fy: yes I tried it both ways and still get a blank screen. That is what prompted me to try the text install
[13:50] <Bupsss> i rebooted, and everything disappeared
[13:50] <marcelkoopman> Bupsss, its always safer to keep documents on removable drives
[13:50] <Bupsss> it did a unclean shutdown check
[13:50] <Ohkie> jrib: heh i can still navigate to windows computers on the network? etc //kate/D
[13:50] <ezw3473> cousteau: btw, better use strncmp, so you can limit the bytes to be compared
[13:50] <marcelkoopman> Bupsss, i have important things on a usb drive
[13:51] <Bupsss> marcelkoopman me too, but usb drives, are normally less safe than hd
[13:51] <jrib> Ohkie: I don't think that really matters anyway, it's the server that's having issues
[13:51] <afancy_> \q
[13:51] <marcelkoopman> Bupsss, why?
[13:51] <afancy_> \q
[13:51] <Bupsss> but apart from that.... is that normal that it resets the home folder?
[13:51] <f00fyf00f3rz> Vern_Ulven: Okay. I think there is a way to force VESA drivers during the install, just trying to remember how
[13:51] <Ohkie> jrib: ok so i should just re-install it now?
[13:51] <sdlwof> i ripped out all X window  stuff, anyway to still update to the latest distrubution?
[13:51] <jrib> Ohkie: if you want to try that, sure
[13:52] <sdlwof> or is it only possible via update manager, apt-get won't work?
[13:52] <cousteau> afancy: /q, not \q
[13:52] <Orker> Hi people
[13:52] <marcelkoopman> Bupsss, if the partition where you mounted /home/user has problems, yes
[13:52] <Ohkie> jrib: sounds good to me ;)
[13:52] <FreeFull> sdlwof: Apt-get will work
[13:52] <Bupsss> marcelkoopman but it never happened before
[13:52] <marcelkoopman> Bupsss, what version of ubuntu are you using
[13:52] <Bupsss> 8.10
[13:52] <sdlwof> FreeFull, will, or should? or maybe? :)
[13:52] <cousteau> transporter: which kernel are you using?
[13:52] <FreeFull> sdlwof: Will
[13:52] <marcelkoopman> Bupsss, you use ext3?
[13:52] <sdlwof> haha, ok.
[13:52] <sdlwof> i'll take yoru word.
[13:52] <onefunk> greetings all, stupid newbie question. i'm using ubuntu-studio 7.10 and would like to upgrade to 8.10. will upgrading make me lose all the settings and progs i have installed or does it upgrade and keep everything as is?
[13:52] <transporter> cousteau im using ubuntu hardy
[13:52] <Bupsss> marcelkoopman yes
[13:53] <cousteau> transporter: and which flash player version?
[13:53] <Bupsss> should i reinstall the system, or keep the new home?
[13:53] <FreeFull> onefunk: It will keep the settings
[13:53] <jrib> !upgrade > sdlwof
[13:53] <marcelkoopman> Bupsss, i dont think it will happen often, it could but just copy your stuff to usb, thats safer
[13:53] <onefunk> FreeFull, thank you.
[13:53] <transporter> cousteau: the problem just started this afternoon because i was having trouble with my fb application where it was telling me to update my flashplayer
[13:54] <sdlwof> jrib, i don't have a gui, no browser client...
[13:54] <jrib> sdlwof: I know, I read that
[13:54] <Orker> anybody speak german?
[13:54] <Ohkie> jrib: ok im gonna remove samba, edit those files, reboot. and see what happens ;) (im sure you're on the edge of your seat with excitement :) )
[13:54] <sdlwof> oh, can't read urls...
[13:54] <Xitruz> If I have an Intel Core 2 Duo on my laptop. Should I use the 64-bit version of ubuntu?
[13:54] <jrib> sdlwof: use another computer... links2... w3m...
[13:54] <marcelkoopman> Xitruz, you could
[13:54] <Azabith> guys i need some help
[13:54] <f00fyf00f3rz> Vern_Ulsen: do you have access to the computer right now to try somethings?
[13:54] <Azabith> anyone willing to help me please IM me
[13:54] <f00fyf00f3rz> some things*
[13:54] <cousteau> transporter: flash videos + amarok / totem / other media don't work well on my PC with kernels 2.6.24-21/22 but do work well with 2.6.24-19
[13:54] <marcelkoopman> Xitruz, but it wont be much difference i think
[13:55] <transporter> i updated the flashplayer fb is working fine then youtube had no video i got the video back but then no audio now i got both the online audi and video but my previously downloaded videos files are freezing up and no audio.
[13:55] <nnull> guys reckon id get away with running ubuntu on a p3 500 220 meg of ram?
[13:55] <Vern_Ulven> f00fy: yes it is downstairs
[13:55] <f00fyf00f3rz> lol Ulvern**
[13:55] <f00fyf00f3rz> Ulven****
[13:55] <f00fyf00f3rz> damn me
[13:55] <SimpleSimonSays> test
[13:55] <marcelkoopman> SimpleSimonSays, test what?
[13:55] <transporter> cousteau: there was a lot of uninstalling and downloading and what not that took place
[13:55] <Xitruz> marcelkoopman: is the 64:bit more "buggy" or is it just like the 32bit but i could  get a little extra from it?
[13:55] <Orker> it's Fedora 10 a ubuntu ver.?
[13:55] <transporter> cousteau: could u help me?
[13:56] <marcelkoopman> Xitruz, i'm using 64 bit right now, bought a new computer amd64
[13:56] <marcelkoopman> Xitruz, its very fast
[13:56] <cousteau> transporter: if you are using a 32 bit processor I recommend you to install the official Adobe Flash Player 10 .deb package, which you can download from Adobe
[13:56] <sdlwof> i just ask because i was told in the 7.x series that distrubution upgrades via apt-get was unsupported. and only works via update manager.
[13:56] <f00fyf00f3rz> Vern_Ulven: Try the live cd and choose advanced options at the list where it asks install, try, etc. Then if you want you can come back and tell me what the options are because I dont remember off the top of my head
[13:56] <marcelkoopman> Xitruz, but it could also be fast in 32bit mode
[13:56] <transporter> cousteau: the flash player is upto date
[13:56] <jrib> sdlwof: that's correct
[13:56] <sdlwof> haha, wtf
[13:56] <FreeFull> Orker: Fedora is not Ubuntu
[13:57] <marcelkoopman> Xitruz, however i have 4 gig of ram now, which is fully used, i could expand it more and 64 bit supports that, 32 bit not
[13:57] <Azabith> i cannot get my atheros wireless driver to work
[13:57] <f00fyf00f3rz> Vern_Ulven: We may be able to force the VESA drivers which should prevent your monitor from going blank
[13:57] <Vern_Ulven> f00fy: ok I will be back. thank you
[13:57] <sdlwof> so i can't upgrade my system unless i have a gui installed? sounds retarded.
[13:57] <FreeFull> I compiled a new kernel, and now that I switch to a virtual console I only get a blank screen (when I log in and write a command, it does take an effect. I just don't see anything on the screen)
[13:57] <jrib> sdlwof: the instructions for upgrading without a gui are on the link I gave you (server instructions)
[13:57] <Xitruz> marcelkoopman: nice. :) ill try that live-cd then. another question. can u install directly from the livecd?
[13:57] <jrib> sdlwof: you need to *read*
[13:57] <marcelkoopman> Xitruz, yes
[13:57] <marcelkoopman> Xitruz, you mean ubuntu then
[13:58] <Xitruz> marcelkoopman: anything i shoudl do in Vista before I try this if I want to dual-boot?
[13:58] <sdlwof> now now, i'm getting two different answers. one says apt-get works, one says it doesn't.
[13:58] <Xitruz> marcelkoopman: yes, ubuntu
[13:58] <nnull> Xitruz¬ format c:
[13:58] <nnull> ;)
[13:58] <Xitruz> :P
[13:58] <sdlwof> and this is a desktop edition, not the server edtion.
[13:58] <Aquahallic> Mornin' folks
[13:59] <f00fyf00f3rz> sdlwof: apt-get works for upgrades, is that what youre asking?
[13:59] <Xitruz> nnull: what is this mysteriois command u give to me
[13:59] <afancy_> hi, how to install scim chinese input
[13:59] <sdlwof> f00fyf00f3rz, i have a 7.10 box, need to up it to 8.04
[13:59] <sdlwof> errm 8.10
[13:59] <nnull> Xitruz¬ get supergrub just incase (i do anyway) but its not recommended advice generally
[14:00] <sdlwof> it's the desktop editon, and has no gnome, no kde, no xserver, nothing for a gui.
[14:00] <marcelkoopman> Xitruz, vista?
[14:00] <f00fyf00f3rz> sdlwof: I would sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get upgrade and i think the upgrade command is sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[14:00] <jrib> sdlwof: it doesn't matter what edition it is.  Use the instructions for upgrading the server.  If you would just take 2 minutes and read the link I gave you, you would have your answer
[14:00] <marcelkoopman> Xitruz, you mean install vista first?
[14:00] <nnull> sdlwof¬ sounds pretty boring ;)
[14:01] <jrib> sdlwof, f00fyf00f3rz: that won't work.  But even if you fix what you missed, that method isn't supported
[14:01] <f00fyf00f3rz> nnull: lmao!
[14:01] <sdlwof> nnull, it sit's outside on the rooftop,
[14:01]  * [gnubie] waves
[14:01] <nnull> sdlwof¬ lol doing what
[14:01] <sdlwof> nnull, wireless things.... ;)
[14:01] <nnull> spying on ure nextdoor neighbour? ;)
[14:01] <[gnubie]> i just installed ubuntu mobile(?) on my ibm thinkpad x32 via network install
[14:01] <Xitruz> marcelkoopman: I am using Windows Vista on the laptop right now. but I want to have both vista and ubuntu. so I want to have dualboot on it. and anything I need to do in vista to get this to work before I install ubuntu on it?
[14:01] <Aquahallic> running newest 8.10 and have apache2 installed and running zoneminder... when I go and change the listen port on apache2 in ports.conf from 80 to something like 1080 it seems that all my php and java breaks... Is there some other way I should be changing this listen port so everything changes with it?
[14:01] <sdlwof> nnull, all 190 AP's :D
[14:02] <nnull> lawl
[14:02] <f00fyf00f3rz> jrib: What do you mean? That's how I installed 8.10
[14:02] <[gnubie]> am i doing the right thing?
[14:02] <jrib> f00fyf00f3rz: I mean what I said.  It's not *supported*
[14:02] <marcelkoopman> Xitruz, it might not work because vista uses nfts and ubuntu cant resize it, but give it a try
[14:02] <[gnubie]> or, should i install ubuntu desktop instead?
[14:02] <Ohkie> jrib marcelkoopman: ok no go with that. are you sure i can remove the ubuntu-desktop package?
[14:02] <zBOOcham> anyone greek?
[14:02] <nnull> like bobby buchae's mum would say "Wireless is the DEBIL! *fade out....."
[14:02] <f00fyf00f3rz> jrib: right
[14:02] <[gnubie]> ubuntu network install has so many choices of installation type.. i don't know which one really to choose
[14:02] <marcelkoopman> Ohkie, yes, you can always install it again later
[14:03] <[gnubie]> please advice
[14:03] <jrib> f00fyf00f3rz: and there exists a supported method
[14:03] <f00fyf00f3rz> jrib: I understand now, I thought you meant something else =P
[14:03] <Azabith> guys i really need some help here
[14:03] <Ohkie> marcelkoopman: im not going to be in some console trying to do it?
[14:03] <Xitruz> marcelkoopman: but I have 2 disks on this one, so if i just format it in ubuntu it shouldnt be a problem?
[14:03] <marcelkoopman> Ohkie, just do it
[14:03] <jrib> f00fyf00f3rz: if you meant why I said it won't work, you forgot to edit sources.list
[14:03] <Ohkie> marcelkoopman: ok
[14:03] <Azabith> just installed ubuntu 8.10 and everything is working fine except the wireless network
[14:04] <[gnubie]> i feel my laptop now running ubuntu mobile is slow
[14:04] <marcelkoopman> Xitruz, yes the first one for vista and the second for ubuntu is good, it will format the second one
[14:04] <[gnubie]> i got a 1gb of ram here
[14:04] <jrib> Ohkie: so reverting your edits and purging samba, still causes your login to fail?
[14:04] <Ohkie> jrib: yep
[14:05] <tiyowan> hi
[14:05] <Vern_Ulven> f00fy: There was a safe graphics mode available after hitting f4 that got me to the live environment. I am trying the install icon now. Thank you for your help
[14:05] <Ohkie> jrib marcel: going for it now :) wish me luck ;)
[14:05] <f00fyf00f3rz> Vern_Ulven: You're welcome, good luck!!!
[14:05] <Crocodil> Hello :) Can anyone please help mi with an alternate cd install? The problem is I have to change my network card's MAC address :/
[14:06] <f00fyf00f3rz> Vern_Ulven: I'll be here PM me and let me know how you made out
[14:06] <FreeFull> Crocodil: Why do you have to change it?
[14:06] <orion> irc://irc.abjects.net/mexicanmafia
[14:07] <Ohkie> jrib marcel: ok brb
[14:07] <Crocodil> FreeFull: well... I have a connection for my home pc, but I want to install linux on a notebook :)
[14:07] <|Dreams|> can someone help me please when compiz is enabled i cant view videos the videos keep flashing it worked ok with 8.04 ok but not 8.10
[14:08] <ezw3473> Crocodil: still no reason for changing the mac address
[14:08] <Crocodil> FreeFull: but my internet provider identifies allowed computers by mac address...
[14:08] <elmnas> hi guys can someone prefer a good audio device manager?
[14:08] <tiyowan> Dreams: Which graphics card do you have?
[14:08] <Crocodil> ezw3473: and what would you suggest?:)
[14:08] <|Dreams|> ati mobility radeon hd3650
[14:08] <ezw3473> Crocodil: why do you have to change the mac address to get a connection?
[14:08] <FreeFull> Crocodil: Are you using a router with a modem built in?
[14:08] <Crocodil> nope, I don't have a router at all :/
[14:09] <Crocodil> I'm connected only through a switch...
[14:09] <tiyowan> Dreams: It's happening because of the proprietary ATI drivers. I'm running on an ATI X1400.
[14:09] <rafting> when I start the install i do the first steps but the partitioner never starts. im trying to install ubuntu 8.10 from USB-memory.
[14:09] <Crocodil> and I get my ip by dhcp from the provider...
[14:09] <|Dreams|> so nothing i can do then apart from disable compiz when i want to watch a video
[14:09] <FreeFull> Crocodil: Couldn't you set a network between your desktop and laptop and get internet on the laptop through the network?
[14:09] <tiyowan> Dreams: I installed VLC Player, and in Tools I set the video output to X11. Now I can watch stuff in VLC without any flickering.
[14:10] <marcelkoopman> rafting, whats wrong for a plain cd install?
[14:10] <|Dreams|> yeah id id that but isnt x11 rubbih?
[14:10] <|Dreams|> rubbish*
[14:10] <Crocodil> hmm... I probably could, but I only need internet on the laptop for the install :)
[14:10] <Crocodil> later, I will be using it at work...
[14:11] <tiyowan> Dreams: I don't notice any degredation in the video quality on VLC, so...
[14:11] <Crocodil> so changing mac seemed like a good idea for doing it fast
[14:11] <FreeFull> Crocodil: If it's not an internet install cd, you don't need internet to install ubuntu
[14:11] <|Dreams|> ok
[14:11] <elmnas> does someone know a good audio setup manager?
[14:11] <|Dreams|> bad bug though isnt it if it worked with 8.04
[14:11] <Crocodil> it's the alternate cd, and it doesn't let me install without network :[
[14:11] <digitalspaghetti> Hi there, can anyone help me - I am trying to do this tutorial (http://www.jeffyestrumskas.com/?page_id=3) 8.04, but when I try the iptables command I get Bad argument `NEW'
[14:11] <|Dreams|> thers a few othr niggles too with using compiz like sometimes the taskbar snt lash on pidgin n sometimes it does
[14:11] <FreeFull> Crocodil: What does it say?
[14:12] <tiyowan> Dreams: I don't really blame Ubuntu for it...because I know how crappy ATI and nvidia are with their drivers.
[14:12] <|Dreams|> yeah i dont blame anyone dont get me wrong just a bit dissapointed
[14:12] <digitalspaghetti> afaik it's due to a change for RH in iptables and can't find an equivilent for ubuntu
[14:12] <Guest23751> can someone please help me through this Internet radio issue Error Loading Media There is no available decoder. IN amarok with kubuntu 8.10
[14:12] <jrib> Crocodil: the wikipedia article on MAC_spoofing gives you the ifconfig command to change your mac
[14:13] <tiyowan> Dreams: Definitely. I use the Omega ATI drivers on Windows...they're better. I'd only wish that Omega does a release for linux.
[14:13] <Crocodil> jrib: yes, I know :) but there is no ifconfig on alternate cd :O :O :O
[14:13] <Crocodil> FreeFull: well, one of the steps is the network detection, and when it fails I get a screen where I can choose not to configure the network right now
[14:13] <jrib> Crocodil: I see.  Use a desktop cd?
[14:13] <jrib> Crocodil: are you sure though?
[14:14] <Crocodil> yes, I am... I know it's strange
[14:14] <FreeFull> Crocodil: Well, just choose not to configure the network
[14:14] <lorenzosu> since I upgraded to ubuntu 8.10 all printouts on an EPSON DX5050 result completely faded. It's not an ink problem as from Windows the same document is printed correctly. Also I tried different print quality settings but no luck. Any suggestions?
[14:14] <jrib> Crocodil: so you are just installing, not upgrading?
[14:14] <Crocodil> FreeFull: I do, but then it wants to find a mirror server
[14:14] <elmnas> does someone know which plugin to pidgeon msn which make you can see a picture in the conversation window?
[14:14] <|Dreams|> i been ubuntu only for 2 years now and for some reason i am all of a sudden choosing between vista ultimate and ubuntu since i had vista on my laptop for a week
[14:14] <|Dreams|> grrr
[14:14] <|Dreams|> i hate choices
[14:14] <|Dreams|> lol
[14:15] <FloodBot1> |Dreams|: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:15] <FreeFull> ...
[14:15] <Crocodil> jrib: is it possible to install only the base system (cli) with normal desktop cd?
[14:15] <lorenzosu> |Dreams|, Dual boot (best of both worlds)? :)
[14:15] <jrib> Crocodil: no.  But you can definitely use the alternate install with your network cable unplugged
[14:15] <|Dreams|> ah i dont like dual booting lol
[14:16] <Crocodil> jrib: how??
[14:16] <ripps> I need some help packaging a custom patched mplayer from svn to my Launchpad PPA.
[14:16] <FreeFull> |Dreams|: Just remove vista completely
[14:16] <|Dreams|> i have dual on my home pc though due to the fact i need windows for some firmware thin
[14:16] <ezw3473> Crocodil: do not confuse alternate cd and netinstall cd
[14:16] <|Dreams|> lol free full :)
[14:16] <lorenzosu> |Dreams|, I can see what you mean... guess choice depends much on what you use your machine for.
[14:16] <DefunctProcess> msg nickserv identify blueblue
[14:16] <DefunctProcess> lol
[14:16] <Crocodil> ezw3473: but this is the alternate cd :)
[14:16] <jrib> Crocodil: I'm confused though.  The alternate install installs the same thing as the desktop cd.  You don't get a cli system.  Or did that change recently?
[14:16] <|Dreams|> yeah i know i use diff parts of each i do love ubuntu though dont know why i am questioning to be honest like i said been happy with ubuntu only for 2 year
[14:17] <ezw3473> Crocodil: then you don't need network access to install it
[14:17] <DefunctProcess> Anyone know why my cdroms dont mount at all ?
[14:17] <tiyowan> Dreams, I've been using Ubuntu since five days on a dual boot system. I like WinXP, too; but I don't like what MS is going to do with Windows 7.
[14:17] <horstle> hi
[14:17] <squid0> hi there. if I want to do a full backup of my system, which directories should I back up? from / and recurse to all children, or only specific children of / ?
[14:17] <DefunctProcess> /etc/fstab shows "/dev/scd1       /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0       0"
[14:17] <Crocodil> ezw3473: I'm confused myself :/
[14:17] <lorenzosu> |Dreams|, You might investigate if what bounds you to Windows can be run in Wine, although that not be your scenary.
[14:17] <hischild> DefunctProcess, change your ident password.
[14:18] <Crocodil> ezw3473: look, here are the options I get when network config fails:
[14:18] <DefunctProcess> hischild, yea
[14:18] <luja> hi, I sucessfully compiled gnucash with ubuntu and made a .deb package. In near future (+some hours) I will make a package with some other configure-options to enable locale-spectific tax. According to the manual in wiki-article http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/De/EÜR
[14:18] <stephane72> bonjour
[14:19] <|Dreams|> nope already tried that for my main pc .net doesnt run on wine, but its not my pc i am botherd about i dont mind dual booting that its just for my laptop, one downfall is it has a bluray player and linux doesnt like bluray lol
[14:19] <Crocodil> Choose language, configure keyboard, detect network hardware, configure the network, choose a mirror of the ubuntu archive, download installer components, change debconf priority, save debug logs, execute a shell, abort the installation
[14:19] <larry> who knows of another dvd burner devede no work or i just don't know how to use it
[14:19] <ripps> I keep getting "gpg: [stdin]: clearsign failed: secret key not available" from debuild, even when I specify my gpg key.
[14:19] <stephane72> hello
[14:19] <|Dreams|> devede is so simple
[14:19] <Crocodil> the install fails at "configure the network", so I can't do the next 2 steps (choose and download)
[14:19] <|Dreams|> devede is to encode the video
[14:19] <|Dreams|> not burn it
[14:19] <larry> not for a newbie i quess
[14:19] <|Dreams|> encode with devede and burn with k3b etc

[14:20] <FreeFull> |Dreams|: You could use mencoder for encoding
[14:20] <|Dreams|> yeah devede is just a good gui for it all
[14:20] <nnull> |Dreams|¬ know of any good dvd backup tools?
[14:21] <Guest23751> Is my amarok connected to the internet???   can someone please help me through this Internet radio issue Error Loading Media There is no available decoder. IN amarok with kubuntu 8.10
[14:21] <lorenzosu> |Dreams|, If you are really attracted from Ubuntu and would like to make a "dcefinitive" choice I advise to pin down to the essedntial what really bounds you to Vista, search for possible alternatives, workarounds etc. and then see if that's acceptable for you
[14:21] <nnull> |Dreams|¬ im looking to have a box on the network that only uses dvdshrink lol ..
[14:21] <|Dreams|> dvd shink works fine under wine
[14:21] <nnull> |Dreams|¬ save me from my blasphemy
[14:21] <nnull> really? lol ill try that
[14:22] <FreeFull> !codecs | Guest23751
[14:22] <jrib> Crocodil: did you see my question?
[14:22] <lorenzosu> Guest23751, What is the address of the internet radio?
[14:22] <netyire> nnull: acidrip is nice and simple, k9copy if you're on kubuntu
[14:22] <Crocodil> ah, well I will have to think something else up...
[14:22] <|Dreams|> oh i will be stivckign with ubuntu the word free and open always clinch it for me lol evertime i question myself lol
[14:22] <Xpistos> Hey fellas, I am getting a lot of Kernal panics since switching to Intrepid. Is there anything going on I should teck out for this?
[14:22] <Guest23751> http://<IP_ADDRESS>:10015
[14:22] <tiyowan> lorenzosu: I'm stuck with Windows because of Visual Studio. If I could get some sort of .NET IDE in Ubuntu I'd be happy. Though to be honest, I haven't really investigated the choices yet. There's so much to learn.
[14:22] <nnull> netyire¬ ok cheers
[14:22] <Ohkie> jrib marcel: seems to have done the trick. many thanks. just re-installing ubuntu-desktop now so we'll make sure it works...
[14:22] <radioman{LT}> SharpDevelop?
[14:23] <FreeFull> tiyowan: Try Mono
[14:23] <Crocodil> jrib: sorry, i've missed it...
[14:23] <|Dreams|> nnull: also thoggen dvd ripper :)
[14:23] <ezw3473> Crocodil: again, does it have the "ip" command?
[14:23] <lorenzosu> tiyowan, Have you seen Mono Develop?
[14:23] <Xpistos> tiyowan: Oh Brother, you are preaching to the chiior
[14:23] <jrib> Ohkie: hmm, so you reinstalled the samba stuff and everything just works now?
[14:23] <jrib> Crocodil: I'm confused though.  The alternate install installs the same thing as the desktop cd.  You don't get a cli system.  Or did that change recently?
[14:23] <Ohkie> jrib: yeah
[14:23] <Xpistos> Mono Develop is not "Visual"
[14:23] <Crocodil> yes, ip is there :)
[14:23] <jrib> Ohkie: you should comment on the bug report
[14:23] <Crocodil> ezw3473: but I don't know how to use it...
[14:23] <|Dreams|> mono doesnt work with what i need anyways already tried lol
[14:23] <ezw3473> Crocodil: the   ip link set eth0 address xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
[14:23] <FreeFull> jrib: It didn't change.
[14:23] <Ohkie> jrib: will do. im just anxious to make sure reinstalling ubuntu-desktop doesnt break it... i notice it installs smbclient which might be a problem. one last reboot to be sure ;)
[14:24] <lorenzosu> Anyways I'm also stuck with Windows because of MAX/MSP which only runs on MAC and Windows. So sticking to dual noot
[14:24] <tiyowan> Mono eh? Thanks guys.
[14:24] <Crocodil> jrib: alternate cd can install both - the normal destkop and the cli :)
[14:24] <ezw3473> Crocodil: must be done while eth0 is down
[14:24] <jrib> Crocodil: hmm, ok
[14:24] <lorenzosu> tiyowan, ou're most welcome.
[14:24] <Crocodil> ezw3473: oh, great I will try that :)
[14:24] <Orker> by all users
[14:24] <Crocodil> ezw3473: and how do I get it down with ip?
[14:24] <ezw3473> Crocodil: ip link set eth0 down
[14:25] <Crocodil> ezw3473: thank you a lot!! :)
[14:25] <Photoguy> I just started to install ubuntu, I put in the disk, and started the installation.  Now it's downloading another 698mb, I though it was all on the cd!
[14:25] <Xpistos> Mono will not work with Visual Studio apps. Only C# code itself
[14:25] <Xpistos> C# is an open standard. Visual studio is not
[14:25] <Crocodil> ezw3473, jrib, FreeFull: thank you guys a lot for your help :)
[14:26] <tiyowan> Xpistos: :( I need an IDE for VB.NET mainly.
[14:26] <Crocodil> I'm off to the install ;)
[14:26] <Crocodil> bye!!
[14:26] <bsdbandit> :) cool
[14:26] <Photoguy> I just started to install ubuntu, I put in the disk, and started the installation.  Now it's downloading another 698mb, I though it was all on the cd!
[14:26] <ezw3473> Crocodil: hope it will work
[14:26] <bsdbandit> i got ubuntu running on the macbook
[14:26] <nonix4> Photoguy: well, I just created a 50 gig partition for a mirror, hope it'll last for a while... can be resized easily though if needed :)
[14:26] <DefunctProcess> Anyone know why my cdroms just stopped working? I'm not sure how to even troubleshoot the problem....
[14:26] <Crocodil> ezw3473: I'm keeping my fingers crossed ;) :D
[14:26] <bsdbandit> im running fluxbox
[14:27] <elmnas> which program can I use instead for daemon tools in linux ubuntu?
[14:27] <jrib> !iso | elmnas
[14:27] <FreeFull> elmnas: You can use mount
[14:27] <sdlwof> how can i have the kernel print more to the screen instead of "starting up..."? keeps hanging right there. yet goes fine into recovery mode
[14:27] <lorenzosu> tiyowan, For "VB-like" you might have a look at Gambas, but probably not exactrly what you0re after.
[14:27] <netyire> elmnas: acetoneiso or somesuch if you want a gui that mounts isos, bins, nrg, etc
[14:27] <Photoguy> I just started to install ubuntu, I put in the disk, and started the installation.  Now it's downloading another 698mb, I though it was all on the cd!
[14:27] <Photoguy> Sorry
[14:27] <elmnas> hm
[14:27] <Photoguy> To bother you agin.
[14:28] <elmnas> ok
[14:28] <netyire> elmnas: http://www.getdeb.net hosts the packager
[14:28] <elmnas> acetoneiso
[14:28] <netyire> elmnas: *package
[14:28] <elmnas> thanx
[14:28] <elmnas> I try it
[14:28] <netyire> elmnas: it's not in the repos
[14:28] <netyire> :-)
[14:28] <FloodBot1> netyire: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:28] <FreeFull> I compiled a new kernel, and now that I switch to a virtual console I only get a blank screen (when I log in and write a command, it does take an effect. I just don't see anything on the screen)
[14:28] <Axan> Hi
[14:28] <jeang> Photoguy - what version of Ubuntu
[14:28] <ezw3473> FreeFull: forgot to select framebuffer console support?
[14:28] <Photoguy> 8.10 64 bit
[14:29] <hischild> I'm installing an Ubuntu server. One of the options is a basic Ubuntu server. I can understand what the other options, such as an openssh-server, but what does this option install?
[14:29] <elmnas> netyire when Im trying to install fillezilla on the webbsite you linked it says:  Error: Dependency is not satifiable: filezilla-common
[14:29] <elmnas> how do i fix this?
[14:29] <jeang> Photoguy: unusual for that much right after a release?
[14:29] <Photoguy> Yeah.
[14:29] <Photoguy> That's what I thought also.
[14:30] <Photoguy> Plus it's downloading at 64kb/s :P
[14:30] <nonix4> elmnas: maybe need to enable universe repo?
[14:30] <Photoguy> This is form windows.
[14:30] <FreeFull> ezw3473: The splash screen does display

[14:30] <elmnas> ok
[14:30] <FreeFull> ezw3473: You think that's it?
[14:31] <ezw3473> FreeFull: ubuntu's splash screen does not use kernel framebuffer
[14:31] <Axan> Is there anyone who already had some trouble trying to configure his joystick axis using jscal ? I got a bugged joystick device (it use non-standard values for axis, so it's impossible to caliber it correctly), i tried to patch joydev module, I recompile it, but I can't load it.. i have a "symbol version not defined" error :(  Can someone help plz ?
[14:31] <jeang> Photoguy: I have 3 8.10 machines and looking at my logs I have only done 150MB roughly since the final release
[14:31] <FreeFull> ezw3473: Ok, I'll recompile the kernel
[14:31] <lorenzosu> since I upgraded to ubuntu 8.10 all printouts on an EPSON DX5050 result completely faded. It's not an ink problem as from Windows the same document is printed correctly. Also I tried different print quality settings but no luck. Any suggestions?
[14:31] <Photoguy> Well, I mounted the iso on a program..
[14:31] <elmnas> monix4 how?
[14:31] <Photoguy> So I figured it would work that way.
[14:32] <nonix4> elmnas: system->administration->software sources
[14:32] <luja>  ftp://<IP_ADDRESS>/download/linux/ubuntu/contrib/ gnucash for ubuntu 8.04, I compiled it by myself to have a new gnucash-version. I will fiddle a littele with compile / configure flags in order to have home-banking and german tax, but you can try this first compile, which works.
[14:32] <Jack_Sparrow> !install > Photoguy
[14:32] <jeang> Photoguy:  guess it isn't using the cd as a repo
[14:32] <bazhang> Photoguy, this is via wubi?
[14:32] <Jack_Sparrow> luja Please stop, we prefer people dont use code from unknown sources.
[14:32] <bazhang> Photoguy, are you installing from inside windows?
[14:32] <Photoguy> Yes
[14:32] <saliak> Hi, i'm having some problems with some hardware on my ubuntu system.  It looks like the handling of interrupts changed from kernel 2.6.20 to 2.6.24 (the version in the current distro) and the vendor of some hardware i have hasn't updated their driver kernel module yet.  What's a good solution?  Is it possible to rollback to an earlier kernel version or something?
[14:32] <bazhang> Photoguy, that is the reason
[14:32] <Photoguy> Windows xp
[14:33] <djbeenie> question, is samba already installed with ubuntu 8.10?
[14:33] <Photoguy> Ok.
[14:33] <bazhang> djbeenie, no
[14:33] <Photoguy> So just wait for it download :P?
[14:33] <bazhang> Photoguy, yep
[14:33] <DefunctProcess> Can someone look at my fstab and tell me why my cdroms arre not mounting? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/81945/
[14:33] <Photoguy> Rats it's going at 67kbp/s
[14:33] <djbeenie> is samba what I need for viewing my windows shares?
[14:33] <netyire> djbeenie: yup!
[14:34] <djbeenie> cool thanks!
[14:34] <bazhang> djbeenie, on a seperate computer?
[14:34] <paul68> is there a way to create a permanent shortcut to my server without having to enter all the details again and open it with nautilus
[14:34] <djbeenie> yes
[14:34] <jrib> djbeenie: if by samba, you mean the server, no
[14:34] <netyire> djbeenie: after you install it, open nautilus and enter smb://<internal ipaddress of windows computer>
[14:34] <saliak> I tried installing 7.04 but it looks like it just reached end of life, so that's probably not a good path to go down
[14:34] <Axan> Can someone help me about how to recompile and install a kernel module (to try to extend device support of the module) ? I got error when I try to load my new module.. and I don't know what to do :'(
[14:34] <sdlwof> alright. kernel hangs at "checking 'hlt' instruction. anyone ever run across this problem?
[14:35] <djbeenie> netyire, thanks!
[14:35] <nonix4> sdlwof: you can most likely boot with the no-hlt option
[14:36] <Jack_Sparrow> !feisty
[14:36] <sdlwof> it's random though, 1/10 times i can get it to boot....
[14:37] <nonix4> sdlwof: well append something like "apm=off no-hlt" to your boot options and see whether that helps
[14:37] <bsdbandit> ubuntu is a good OS
[14:37] <bsdbandit> im coming from a freebsd environment
[14:37]  * sdlwof ponders

[14:38] <bsdbandit> yeah same here
[14:38] <bsdbandit> espacially openbsd
[14:38] <sdlwof> iptables is overly complicated.
[14:38] <Xpistos> Hey is there any reason why I should be getting alot of kernal panics right now?
[14:38] <nonix4> sdlwof: yes those are related... a bios update may also fix that
[14:38] <bsdbandit> pf is the way to go
[14:38] <bsdbandit> when it comes to firewalls
[14:38] <sdlwof> yup, i'm all obsd for firewalling

[14:49] <Pretto> lenswipe, dpkg -i your .deb file
[14:49] <Jack_Sparrow> lenswipe but since it is not from our repos, you may also have dependency problems..
[14:50] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, doesn't gdebi usually resolve those dependency's?

[15:04] <wipewindows> anyone know? booting from usb, boots works but when I start the install it gets stuck on trying to go the partitioner
[15:05] <Jack_Sparrow> wipewindows It can take a long time if you have large drives.  Some may also require all_generic_ide for some controller issues.. You cant try to partition manually with gparted live..
[15:06] <Jack_Sparrow> you can try
[15:06] <Vern_Ulven> f00fy: If you are still here I just wanted to say thanks again and let you know I am up and running
[15:06] <kurrata> wipewindows i had this one when i instaled from live cd. Got past it when i tried instaling when "ubuntu" was fully loaded instead of pressing instal at boot menus
[15:07] <sdlwof> can grub be used to tell the kernel to load a different sd driver?
[15:07] <wipewindows> kurrata: how do you mean fully loaded?
[15:07] <wipewindows> im inside ubuntu when i try
[15:07] <Jack_Sparrow> wipewindows run live cd to the working desktop
[15:07] <wipewindows> there is an icon the desktop
[15:07] <wipewindows> i press it choose timezone etc
[15:07] <Jack_Sparrow> !enter > wipewindows
[15:08] <wipewindows> then when i click to go to the partitioner it gets stuck(waited 5 minutes nothing happened then i quit, treied several times)
[15:08] <Jack_Sparrow> wipewindows How many drives and what is the total size.
[15:09] <Jack_Sparrow> wipewindows I have had several that took well over 5  to 10 minutes
[15:09] <princ1> good morning people

[15:10] <elmnas> can someone please help me is this possible to have this kind of interface in ubuntu --> http://lynucs.deviantart.com/art/bliss-105565250?
[15:10] <princ1> I recently installed Ubuntu to my HP Pavilion Slimline. As of today I get no sound. It's a new problem and only happens when I'm logged in. When I'm at the login screen there is sound.
[15:10] <rafting> im wipewindows
[15:11] <rafting> Jack_Sparrow: it is getting to the partition "manager" that atkes time, not the actual formatting or anything
[15:11] <Jack_Sparrow> rafting <rafting> i want to format it all and have a full dedicated windows install.             This is the wrong room if you want to instal windows
[15:11] <test34> pulse audio... is a nightmare
[15:11] <princ1> what is pulse audio
[15:12] <ripps> I keep getting "gpg: [stdin]: clearsign failed: secret key not available" from debuild, even when I specify my gpg key
[15:12] <test34> princ1, I'm not saying that is your problem.. but pulse audio is a sound server
[15:12] <princ1> oh lol
[15:12] <Lau_of_DK> Gents, Ive just tried to encrypt my /home with LUKS; but its not showing up on /dev/mapper when I boot, I think I saw an early crypto disk fail during boot, which log file should I review to get more info ?
[15:12] <princ1> this is so annoying, and being new to this os I don't know where to start
[15:12] <exodus> princ1>  For some reason Intrepid does not create an audio group, and membership in such a group is necessary to ensure priority access to the sound devices.
[15:13] <princ1> I see
[15:13] <princ1> so should I change my group?
[15:13] <maverick340> how do i add a tcp/ip printer on ubuntu ?
[15:13] <Jack_Sparrow> !cups
[15:13] <test34> princ1, try to adjust the volume using: alsamixer
[15:13] <Lau_of_DK> !luks
[15:13] <Lau_of_DK> !cryptsetup
[15:14] <princ1> okay
[15:14] <princ1> also
[15:14] <princ1> when I go to test the sound
[15:14] <princ1> I get this: audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument
[15:14] <test34> "alsactl store" to save settings
[15:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Lau_of_DK Please /msg the bot so you dont spam the channel.. that way only you see the factoid or error
[15:15] <guest_fish> can somebody help with one command, dd? I want to write an bootable image (an os) to usb drive.
[15:15] <guest_fish> They gave me an code line "dd if=<path_to/img_file.iso> of=/dev/da0 bs=1m", I changed /dev/da0 to /dev/sdc (my usb drive, i think)=> my output, dd: invalid number `1m'. What I have to do?
[15:16] <Lau_of_DK> Can anyone help me with automounting LUks partition ?
[15:16] <Jack_Sparrow> guest_fish Who gave that command to you

[15:20] <Lau_of_DK> Ok, since this is obviously not the place, do you know where I can find help on Cryptsetup / Luks ?
[15:20] <jab_doa> bazhang, i dont nessearily want to upgrade. in my experience it breaks too much thinks
[15:20] <hagus> Is this channel to ask for help with setting up CUPS?
[15:20] <Jack_Sparrow> jab_doa Feisty has reached End of Life.. no longer supported
[15:20] <Jack_Sparrow> hagus If you are also running our release of ubuntu.. yes

[15:20] <jab_doa> Jack_Sparrow, bazhang, no way to get the old packages?
[15:20] <bazhang> jab_doa, eol means you dont get any more security upgrades, support etc
[15:21] <hagus> I am running Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex (8.10)
[15:21] <Jack_Sparrow> jab_doa there is an old archive...
[15:21] <jab_doa> bazhang, feisty-security feisty-backports does still exist but the feisty folder is missing
[15:21] <hagus> 32 bit version
[15:21] <guest_fish> Jack_Sparrow: Currently using Ubuntu 8.10
[15:22] <jab_doa> jack-desktop, where can i find the old archive? old.archive.ubuntu.com ?

[15:22] <kidkenetic> hello
[15:22] <hagus> my /init.d/cups directory does not exist
[15:23] <maverick340> Jack_Sparrow,  tried allthe link
[15:23] <maverick340> it still gives a CUPS error
[15:23] <jrib> jab_doa: you should upgrade, eol means you aren't guaranteed security updates
[15:23] <Jack_Sparrow> maverick340 Did you actually read all of that , that fast?
[15:23] <maverick340> i am able to access my printer via the remoteUI by simply entering the IP of the printer in the browser
[15:23] <hagus> , /etc/init.d/cups: No such file or directory
[15:23] <maverick340> have been trying this for 2 days :)
[15:24] <unimatrix> why can't i install both libapache2-mod-mono AND libapache2-mod-php5 ??
[15:24] <jab_doa> jrib, i know. but this is a productive system. no way to take it down
[15:24] <maverick340> when i go too add a printer it actually detects my printer - as a seprate option along with cmb printer , ipp printer etc
[15:24] <jrib> jab_doa: production system without security updates doesn't sound like a particularly smart idea
[15:24] <hagus> I was able to access my HP OfficeJet Pro L7680 which is on my network before I "upgraded".
[15:25] <jrib> jab_doa: I'd rather have a couple hours downtime than a compromised system
[15:25] <jeflui> #ubuntu-br
[15:25] <shadobiii> i need some help people.. basically i have a laptop that doesnt have a cd drive, the windows on it is screwed, it has grub4dos on it and i'm DESPERATELY trying to install ubuntu on it
[15:26] <jab_doa> jrib, right. there no services open to the outside. so the thread is managable
[15:26] <robert> how do i connect my palm treo to my computer with ubuntu?
[15:26] <shadobiii> i can access the drive directly since i've taken it out and wired it up to my pc
[15:26] <shadobiii> is there any way to install ubuntu onto the drive and plug it back in?
[15:26] <rafting> i eamn ubuntu install
[15:27] <DRebellion> shadobiii, there are other install options, most notably install from usb
[15:27] <shadobiii> i tried that too DRebellion but my lappy doesnt boot from usb :(
[15:27] <Axan> How can I recompile the kernel module "joydev" ? I tried to do it but it fails loading with error: "joydev: no symbol version for struct_module", can someone help plz ?
[15:27] <shadobiii> been at it for ages now.. 4 hours :(
[15:27] <Linux-Lover> hello ubuntu ppl
[15:28] <Jack_Sparrow> shadobiii Yes, you can do an install in one PC and move the drive to the other
[15:28] <shadobiii> will it work alright? windows would never let me do something like that
[15:28] <shadobiii> blue screen of death guaranteed.
[15:28] <shadobiii> or worse.
[15:29] <Jack_Sparrow> shadobiii there will be some hardware detection and possibly video driver issue.  If you set video to vesa mode before the move it seems to work better
[15:29] <robert> how do i connect my palm treo to my computer with ubuntu?
[15:29] <Jack_Sparrow> shadobiii We dont have the copy protection that windows does
[15:29] <shadobiii> i see... thanks man, i'm going to go try it out
[15:30] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[15:30] <shadobiii> ill let you know how it goes
[15:30] <shadobiii> later

[15:32] <simplexio> maverick340: printer settings ?
[15:32] <rafting> Jack_Sparrow: when you try to start the partitioner(gparter?) in the bootloader itt akes 5-10minutes to get into the partition-menu(not talking about the actual partitioning)?
[15:32] <Lasivian> nevermind, I got it
[15:32] <maverick340> yes
[15:32] <Lasivian> tiyowan: aye, danke
[15:32] <maverick340> its a tcp/ip printer : canon iRC2550
[15:32] <Jack_Sparrow> rafting yes, to get to the partitioner as it is checking the drives first
[15:33] <Lasivian> what besides dmesg should I output if I just reinstalled and my wireless works, but something broke it before I reinstalled
[15:33] <maverick340> i am trying to connect via ldp://<ip address>

[15:35] <hornets> how I edit the config files, to get a static ip address?

[15:39] <princ1> I'm here trying to get sound to work on my user account. for some reason, no programs are able to access my sound driver
[15:39] <Steven3> ha!
[15:39] <Columbo0815> hi.. this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PXEInstallServer says i should copy /cdrom/install/netboot to the tftpd. but netboot doesnt exists on the cd
[15:39] <princ1> The sound works at the login screen but not in my account..what's the problem?
[15:39] <incidence> How do I install grub to /dev/sda from live-cd?
[15:39] <Linux-Lover> any one help me please i need to know how i install driver @ ubuntu and how i can manage hardware devices
[15:39] <jrib> princ1: what is the output of 'groups'?
[15:39] <Linux-Lover> ?
[15:39] <jrib> Linux-Lover: what driver?
[15:40] <never2far> how can i make ubuntu to recognize my laptop keyboard ... for example Alt+backspace should delete a word from terminal..
[15:40] <robert> how do i connect my palm treo?
[15:40] <Columbo0815> is there another way to get to the pxe-needed-files?
[15:40] <princ1> are you asking what group I'm in?
[15:40] <Linux-Lover> i talk in general any hardware drivers like sound .. VGA etc ...
[15:40] <terminator> Anyone know when the new Nvidia 173.14.15 drivers will be available in Ubuntu?
[15:40] <jrib> princ1: yes, type 'groups' in a terminal
[15:40] <nonix4> most likely it is only on altcd... and somewhere else
[15:40] <jrib> Linux-Lover: linux does that for you in general
[15:40] <princ1> okay..
[15:40] <princ1> doing that now
[15:41] <Linux-Lover> lol jrib of course no it is for all new linux users
[15:41] <princ1> pulse adm dialout fax cdrom tape audio dip video plugdev scanner fuse lpadmin netdev admin sambashare
[15:41] <robert> ???
[15:41] <Steven3> hmm...
[15:41] <jrib> Linux-Lover: if there's some driver that can't be enabled by default because of freedom issues, you can use System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers
[15:41] <robert> its hard to get help here
[15:42] <jrib> robert: works better if you ask a question
[15:42] <nonix4> Columbo0815: 8.10 altcd has that at least
[15:42] <alphagubbel> hi, some stupid question, when i'm try to install ubuntu 8.04 lts, the screen turns black during installation, so i'm unable to complete the installation. how can i fix that?
[15:42] <robert> how do i get my palm treo connected to my computer?
[15:42] <never2far> how can i make ubuntu to recognize my laptop keyboard ... for example Alt+backspace should delete a word from terminal..
[15:42] <jrib> !palm | robert
[15:42] <Linux-Lover> i did mr jrib but i ask if ubuntu has someting like device manager @ windows
[15:42] <Columbo0815> altcd? ok, thank you.. i downloaded the wrong
[15:42] <Columbo0815> i try that, thanx Non-ICE
[15:42] <robert> thanks
[15:42] <Columbo0815> sorry nonix4
[15:42] <Jack_Sparrow> Linux-Lover no it does not
[15:42] <jrib> Linux-Lover: what for?
[15:42] <j2daosh> anyoanyone got a link to fixing the atheros wireless card that is comwhere on the ubuntu wiki?
[15:42] <Linux-Lover> that i can install .. manage rollback ....
[15:43] <princ1> any idea on the sound, jrib? :-D
[15:43] <j2daosh> i have looked at the wirless doc page, thats not what i need.
[15:43] <jrib> robert: might want to search help.ubuntu.com too, but I don't know if anything is there
[15:43] <elmnas> where do install all programs in linux?
[15:43] <robert> thanks
[15:43] <j2daosh> someone else along time ago gave me a link that was like wiki.ubuntu.com or something and it had the right stuff to do to make it work
[15:43] <jrib> princ1: not really.  How are you determining sound is not working?
[15:43] <Jack_Sparrow> elmnas Where, or how?
[15:43] <Jack_Sparrow> !wireless
[15:44] <elmnas> jack_sparrow where cause I have installed amsn but I wan to change the skin
[15:44] <elmnas> I need to put the skin I downloaded in the skin directory
[15:44] <Jack_Sparrow> elmnas Did you install amsn from our repos?
[15:44] <j2daosh> Jack_Sparrow: that doesn't say wiki.ubuntu.com... and i said in one of the previous messages that that link isn't correct
[15:44] <elmnas> terminal
[15:44] <jrib> elmnas: use ~/.amsn/skins
[15:44] <elmnas> sudo apt-get install amsn
[15:44] <princ1> well when put the password to log in , I get the regular ubuntu sound that says the password is correct. when I am in though and use a program there is no sound. like firefox for example. I go to a website that has sound and no luck. if I use a wine program it says it can't access the sound
[15:44] <elmnas> where?
[15:45] <princ1> and the sound worked a little while ago I don't know what has changed since then
[15:45] <jrib> elmnas: ~ means /home/username usually.  So ~/.amsn/skins ...
[15:45] <elmnas> ok ok
[15:45] <princ1> also this program is not making any noise but it should be every time someone says something
[15:46] <jrib> princ1: does system -> preferences -> sound -> sound playback test produce a beep?
[15:46] <Linux-Lover> mr jack i did it now i open the hardware drivers from system Menu but i got error message for Nividia driver (no proprietary drivers r in use on this system )
[15:46] <Linux-Lover> :(
[15:46] <pseudo_opcode> hi, i just did a fresh 8.10 install and its extremely slow
[15:46] <princ1> it produces this: audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument
[15:47] <jrib> princ1: create a new user and see if the problem persists
[15:47] <elmnas> how do I remove audacious from terminal?
[15:47] <jrib> !apt > elmnas
[15:47] <princ1> I'm relatively sure the sound will work in a new user, but I'll do it now and let you know
[15:48] <elmnas> ok ty
[15:48] <pseudo_opcode> hi guys, i have freshly installed 8.10 on my system, earlier it was 8.04 and was running fine, but 8.10 is painfully slow, i dont know why
[15:48] <princ1> yea
[15:48] <princ1> it works
[15:48] <terminator> When will the nvidia 173.14.15 driver be released in ubuntu.  I would like to use it with my FX5200 card.
[15:48] <princ1> I just went on guest and got the ubuntu login noise
[15:48] <Linux-Lover>  mr jack i did it now i open the hardware drivers from system Menu but i got error message for Nividia driver (no proprietary drivers r in use on this system
[15:49] <jrib> princ1: start renaming ~/.* directories to narrow down the cause
[15:49] <princ1> umm....
[15:49] <f00fyf00f3rz> see you guys later!
[15:49] <princ1> I don't understand what you mean
[15:49] <robert> i tried to hot sync my palm treo and it said "warning failed to connect to devie cradle on port check your configuration as you have requested old style usbseria ttyusb syncing, but do not have the usbserial visor kernel module loadedl
[15:49] <jrib> !who | princ1
[15:49] <elmnas> jrib help me please didnt find the answear here
[15:50] <robert> what do i need to do?
[15:50] <jrib> elmnas: did you read the whole page... it's pretty clear
[15:50] <princ1> jrib should I type that
[15:50] <Linux-Lover>  mr jack i did it now i open the hardware drivers from system Menu but i got error message for Nividia driver (no proprietary drivers r in use on this system  ????
[15:50] <morth_> Anyone know where i would look for information on my Mozilla? its unstable and keeps crashing.
[15:50] <elmnas> I searched ctrl f for remove umm
[15:50] <jrib> princ1: you understand that configuration for your user is stored in directories in ~ that start with a '.'?
[15:51] <diego``> hello
[15:51] <princ1> yes
[15:51] <jrib> elmnas: try "removal"
[15:51] <elmnas> ok
[15:51] <pseudo_opcode> any ideas anyone?>
[15:51] <diego``> my user-switcher dont show the shutdown, reboot, hibernate etc options
[15:52] <jrib> princ1: so rename a likely culprit like ~/.gnome to ~/.gnome.backup, then see if you get sound on login again.  And so on
[15:52] <princ1> ohhh
[15:52] <Sarthor_> Hi, i was remote in some ubuntu pc, iptraf--> Detail Interface -->eth1 was running, i lost my connection to that remote pc, now i cant run, ptraf--> Detail Interface -->eth1..its still running.. how to stop that...
[15:52] <princ1> jrib : I'm troubleshooting, disabling programs to see what is causing the sound problem right?
[15:52] <temppy> does anyone know if problems can arise from running a sudo'ed firefox?  ie, will it mess up subsequent attempts to run firefox or anything like that?
[15:52] <Linux-Lover>  i did it now i open the hardware drivers from system Menu but i got error message for Nividia driver (no proprietary drivers r in use on this system
[15:52] <jrib> princ1: I don't have a good guess as to what the cause is, so yes you're restoring settings to default to figure out the issue
[15:52] <morth_> Anyone know where i would look for information on my Mozilla? its unstable and keeps crashing
[15:52] <Jack_Sparrow> temppy yes.. that is a bad idea
[15:53] <princ1> jrib: got ya. so the directory I navigate to first is /~?
[15:53] <FreeFull> temppy: Why would you run sudo'ed firefox in the first place?
[15:53] <jrib> princ1: ~ just means /home/username

[15:53] <whileimhere> Hi I am stuck using 7.10 for reasons involving my wireless card. Is there a way to upgrade such apps as GIMP without upgrading the whole of the OS?
[15:54] <emecas> I got a message about Authentication Failure changing mi timezone when i am unlocking the dialog ... some one can help me?
[15:54] <princ1> jrib: yea i'm in there now so should I start renaming the folders that are in there
[15:54] <Jack_Sparrow> whileimhere You really need to upgrade or you WILL break something
[15:54] <FreeFull> whileimhere: What are the exact reasons?
[15:54] <jrib> princ1: I'd start with ~/.gnome, then check that, then maybe ~/.config and ~/.gconf would be good ones as well
[15:54] <Linux-Lover>  mr jack i did it now i open the hardware drivers from system Menu but i got error message for Nividia driver (no proprietary drivers r in use on this system
[15:55] <pseudo_opcode> can anyone help me?
[15:55] <Jack_Sparrow> whileimhere dont let a cheap unsuported wireless card determine your os/version
[15:55] <princ1> jrib : ok. how do I see invisible files
[15:55] <Sarthor_> Hi, i was connected with some remote Ubuntu pc, iptraf--> Detail Interface -->eth1 was running, i lost my connection to that remote pc, now i cant run, ptraf--> Detail Interface -->eth1..its still running.. how to stop that.....
[15:55] <jrib> princ1: view -> show hidden files
[15:55] <princ1> yera
[15:55] <princ1> jrib: yea just saw that. ok I'll start on that. thanks a lot
[15:55] <joaopinto> Sakarias, sudo pkill iptraf
[15:55] <joaopinto> ops, was Sarthor_
[15:56] <Jack_Sparrow> pseudo_opcode HAve you run it with effects turned off
[15:56] <Linux-Lover> no one help me ??? ok
[15:56] <Linux-Lover> brb
[15:56] <Sarthor_> joaopinto, what the solution??
[15:56] <temppy> Jack_Sparrow: FreeFull: well, I have to, in order to run a certain website.  Any advice on how to do it?  Im doing it right now on a separate user account, of which I would devote to this one website.  But, are there any other ways to do it safely on a regular account, maybe with a chroot?
[15:56] <joaopinto> Sarthor_, yes, just kill it with the command I have provided
[15:56] <pseudo_opcode> compiz effects?
[15:57] <rafting> so I got the partitioner wokring now and I can partition the harddrive as I please. It detects Vista Longhorn and I can choose 50/50 for example. Now, is there a chance that will ruin stuff on the Vista -partition? I defragmented the harddrive.
[15:57] <whileimhere> FreeFull: Okay if you are ready for this. I use wireless at home. I sit 6 feet from the router but for reasons that I cannot get into I cannot use a etho cord. When I have tried to just upgrade to a newer version of ubuntu my wireless starts to experience the following issues: Wireless is not detected for up to 15 minutes, wireless drops every few minutes, wireless has a week signal of 30%. I figured it may have something
[15:57] <Jack_Sparrow> temppy that doesnt make sense to me.. you should be able to do it with any card
[15:57] <pseudo_opcode> Jack_Sparrow, thats a good idea, but that would probably take 2 days
[15:57] <pseudo_opcode> to reach there and turn it off
[15:57] <princ1> jrib : if one of these folders are causing the problem, will renaming them immediatly put sound back or will I have to restart each time?
[15:57] <Sarthor_> joaopinto, i cant understand this command, please give me the sample here. will be thankfull.
[15:58] <joaopinto> Sarthor^^, man pkill
[15:58] <rafting> so I got the partitioner wokring now and I can partition the harddrive as I please. It detects Vista Longhorn and I can choose 50/50 for example. Now, is there a chance that will ruin stuff on the Vista -partition? I defragmented the harddrive.
[15:58] <jrib> princ1: logout and back in

[15:58] <ZummiG777> Question: How can I tell if the processor I'm running on is 64 bit capable, from within Ubuntu.
[15:58] <temppy> Jack_Sparrow: ? what?  I need to run firefox as root.  Its for an online virus scanner...
[15:58] <Jack_Sparrow> rafting there is always a chance of trashing a partition when working at that level..
[15:58] <pseudo_opcode> i was running compiz fusion previously without any problems
[15:58] <pseudo_opcode> in 8.04
[15:58] <Sarthor_> there is no such command in my ubuntu, like ops
[15:59] <Jack_Sparrow> temppy online virus scanner for what os?
[15:59] <Jack_Sparrow> pseudo_opcode your not on 8.04 now
[15:59] <rafting> Jack: ok but can I make it non-functionin? i dont have any material i care about
[15:59] <ardchoille> temppy: I'd be very suspicious of that
[15:59] <rafting> I cant make irraparable damage right?
[15:59] <pseudo_opcode> no man i did fresh install, 8.10 and its painfully slow now
[16:00] <joaopinto> temppy, a virus scanner which requires a browser to be run as root to be run is a security risk
[16:00] <pseudo_opcode> oh i m on windows box
[16:00] <Sarthor_> Hi, i was connected with some remote Ubuntu pc, iptraf--> Detail Interface -->eth1 was running, i lost my connection to that remote pc, now i cant run, ptraf--> Detail Interface -->eth1..its still running.. how to stop that.....
[16:00] <rafting> and if I do 50/50 now I can always do a 100% ubuntu install later right?
[16:00] <pseudo_opcode> if you mean where i am accessing irc from
[16:00] <Jack_Sparrow> rafting yes, you  CAN erase everything in your vista install if done incorrectly or lose power etc
[16:00] <pseudo_opcode> Jack, ubuntu is on my other lappy
[16:00] <temppy> Jack_Sparrow: well, Im experimenting with scanning a windows partition from linux.  I think it would be really cool.  You know, there are viruses out there that seem to be unremovable while windows is running
[16:00] <rafting> ok isnt a big deal really. but is it likely to be ok?
[16:00] <joaopinto> Sarthor^^, you need to learn to use the "ps" and "kill" commands, or "pkill", please read their manpages with man command
[16:01] <joaopinto> Sarthor_, ^
[16:01] <Jack_Sparrow> temppy I would avoid an online solution for that

[16:03] <Jack_Sparrow> pseudo_opcode 32 bit will run on anything, and new users should use 32 over 64 until they get a feel for things
[16:04] <kurrata> mcrafting
[16:04] <temppy> joaopinto: ardchoille   well, here is the website http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner , but maybe we should move to offtopic?  I'm open to suggestions.
[16:04] <Cerby> hi, can someone help me? i have a vista laptop and have installed ubuntu to an external harddrive, but now i get the error  "Loading grub.....Error 21"?? i cannot log into windows or ubuntu
[16:04] <whileimhere> FreeFull: How often is the iso updated for each version? Perhaps if I download the newest version of ubuntu it might work or is the version for download the same iso that was available when 8.10 was officially released?
[16:04] <Jack_Sparrow> !grub > Cerby
[16:04] <pseudo_opcode> i had 32 bit before this too, but it was so cool
[16:05] <FreeFull> whileimhere: So you did test it with Ubuntu 8.10. I can't help then
[16:05] <ardchoille> temppy: suggestions? don't run a web browser as root user, it's a security risk regardless of who asks you to do it.
[16:05] <whileimhere> FreeFull: I downloaded 8.10 the first week after it was released for production.
[16:05] <whileimhere> Has it changed?
[16:05] <FreeFull> whileimhere: The .iso wouldn't, but there are several updates after you install it
[16:06] <Jack_Sparrow> !pm
[16:06] <whileimhere> FreeFull: I will give it one more try since I really want some of the new apps.
[16:06] <FreeFull> whileimhere: Ok
[16:06] <whileimhere> Thanks FreeFull
[16:06] <ip3> hi all, someone can give me a hint, for saving memory?
[16:07] <pseudo_opcode> Jack_Sparrow, you might laugh, but i m a server admin and i have 5 ubuntu servers to look after, but my own lappy is creating problems
[16:07] <joaopinto> ip3, use xubuntu ?
[16:07] <Sarthor> Hi, i was connected with some remote Ubuntu pc, iptraf--> Detail Interface -->eth1 was running, i lost my connection to that remote pc, now i cant run, ptraf--> Detail Interface -->eth1..its still running.. how to stop that.....
[16:07] <whileimhere> ip3 I use XFCE to help out.
[16:07] <ip3> joaopinto ubuntu server edition 8.04
[16:07] <joaopinto> Sarthor, you already got the answer, could you please read the manuals and stop repeating yourself ? thanks
[16:07] <whileimhere> ip3 I find that XFCE works great on my little laptop
[16:07] <Cerby> can any1 give me some help?
[16:07] <whileimhere> While GNOME is slower and people can tell that.
[16:07] <temppy> ardchoille: well, Im the one that wants to do it.  And the website doesn't work without it...    Do you have any other ways of cleaning a windows installation of viruses, using Ubuntu?
[16:07] <FreeFull> Xubuntu works just fine on my laptop
[16:08] <Sarthor> joaopinto, i did not get any answer my friend, i told you that the command given by yuo is not working.
[16:08] <joaopinto> ip3, there isn't much to save there, except maybe using lighttpd instead of apache ?

[16:10] <Maizcul> !grub
[16:10] <temppy> FreeFull: unfortunately, clamav hasnt worked for me in the past.  I have been able to identify viruses just by the randomized file names, and clam misses them.  I've also heard hearsay clamav is only good for older viruses.
[16:10] <Cerby> what is the link?
[16:10] <Jack_Sparrow> look up

[16:14] <marcreichelt> joaopinto: yeah, I added those to synaptic
[16:14] <exodus> marceichelt, stick with 2.4, i think they removed openoffice 3 because it was too buggy?
[16:15] <elmnas> have someone a good guide to change a boot loader skin please I downloaded one  blablablabt.ar.bz2
[16:15] <Jack_Sparrow> qcjn Much better, please be patient while waiting for an answer

[16:19] <joaopinto> Sarthor, sudo reboot
[16:19] <joaopinto> Sarthor, and you really should not be managing a server, since you are not familiar with the linux basics
[16:19] <Sarthor> joaopinto, i know how to reboot, but i was getting help here to avoit reboting.
[16:19] <AgentHeX> unless anyone else can tell me if the mac80211 module hangs their wireless card.  i've got an intel 4965 wi-fi chip, and intrepid causes it to lose the connection typically within 60 seconds
[16:19] <joaopinto> Sarthor, I would advise you to get some linux tutorial, and playing with it on the desktop first

[16:21] <keystr0k> Is there a way to do a "diff" on an entire folder?
[16:22] <pulsewave> how can i run gnome and kde in seperate tty's at the same time? Is it possible?
[16:22] <FreeFull> pulsewave: yes
[16:22] <robert> Where can i find a download iso for ubuntu 8.04?
[16:22] <FreeFull> pulsewave: You need to start a separate gdm session
[16:23] <Jack_Sparrow> !download
[16:23] <pulsewave> so  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[16:23] <exodus> you were able to find a irc channel for Ubuntu but not a site to download it from?
[16:23] <princ1> jrib I did what you said renaming everything but nothing worked. I just deleted my account and made a new one. now it works
[16:23] <Maizcul> !google
[16:23] <pulsewave> then go to tty f9 but there's only a blank flashing cursor
[16:23] <pulsewave> or it duplicates tty f7
[16:24] <slinkeey> I put a new video card in my pc...  How does the kernel know what drivers to use and why didn't it ask where to get them?
[16:24] <jrib> princ1: that works :)
[16:24] <princ1> lol
[16:24] <Maizcul> the kernel, it knows things? run for your life!
[16:24] <scunizi> slinkeey, what kind of card?
[16:24] <slinkeey> haha
[16:24] <princ1> jrib thanks a lot though I did learn a lot about this os.
[16:24] <exodus> lol
[16:24] <slinkeey> I put in an ATI I don't remember

[16:25] <pulsewave> FreeFull: any ideas what's wrong and why that's happening?
[16:25] <princ1> can I ask for wine help in here or should I go to a wine irc chan?

[16:25] <Maizcul> !wine
[16:25] <slinkeey> cards
[16:25] <Jack_Sparrow> princ1 if it involves wine.. then #winehq
[16:25] <FreeFull> slinkeey: Remember, Ubuntu is not Windows.
[16:25] <princ1> thanks
[16:25] <scunizi> slinkeey, it will typically recognize it.. if there are propiatory drivers available for it then you might find them at System>Admin>Hardware Drivers
[16:26] <slinkeey> I know
[16:26] <Maizcul> In a world without doors or fences, who needs gates and windows?
[16:26] <slinkeey> I just wonder how it works
[16:26] <slinkeey> how does know how to utilie the card?
[16:26] <slinkeey> utilize
[16:26] <araldit> Anyone know if it is the netdev group i have to be a member of to be able to use the pcap lib as user?
[16:26] <Maizcul> it uses leet hax
[16:26] <FreeFull> slinkeey: It's likely the driver was already built-in
[16:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Maizcul Please dont do that
[16:27] <gfather> hello guys

[16:28] <Jack_Sparrow> gfather  what do you mean by partners section
[16:28] <scunizi> gfather "partner section" ???
[16:28] <mikebeecham> hi guys..wonder if someone can help.  I have an ubuntu machine and a mac machine on the same network.  The mac is running really well, and my browsing/connection  speed is excellent.  However, the browsing / connection speed on the Ubuntu machine has gone really really slow...is there something I can test to see what the problem is?
[16:28] <robert> i'm having trouble syncing my palm treo, should i try it with the 8.04 live cd?
 yes
[16:28] <joaopinto> slinkeey, kernel/xorg have support for a ton of cards
[16:28] <Maizcul> !repeat
[16:28] <gfather> ubuntu partner section
[16:28] <Jack_Sparrow> mikebeecham network card running at 1mb is often a issue
[16:29] <gfather>  <scunizi> ubuntu partner section
[16:29] <scunizi> mikebeecham, do you have an nvidia card.. if it's newer it might be that.  the drivers may give the appearance of slowness.
[16:29] <mikebeecham> Jack_Sparrow: it's integrated and has been working until yesterday....how can I check / address this
[16:29] <joaopinto> gfather, could you rephrase your question ?
[16:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Maizcul may I have a word please
[16:29] <mikebeecham> scunizi: it's not that mate
[16:29] <dios_mio> joaopinto, sa pinto, fernando couto, nuno gomes, maniche, vitor baia...
[16:30] <mikebeecham> Jack_Sparrow: is there any change of going pm with this?  I have to get this resolved asap
 ok :) , i want to become a partner with ubuntu in my country , and i want to contacty partner person in charge , or cget contacted by them
[16:30] <joaopinto> gfather, you need to contact Canonical, please check the contacts on their page
[16:30] <Jack_Sparrow> mikebeecham no.. I am busy elsewhere, but let me paste one thing.. hold
[16:30] <ackbahr> Hi! I'm SSH-ing my computer at home and I need to mount a windows partition... Can someone help me?
[16:30] <mikebeecham> Jack_Sparrow: many thanks
[16:31] <joaopinto> ackbahr, install and use smbmount
[16:31] <Jack_Sparrow> mikebeecham Speed issue: "force" the speed with sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M to get decent speed (by default i get 1MB/s)
[16:31] <ValentineXX> how to be a owner? folder owner is root i do not have permission to change folder settings
[16:31] <ackbahr> joaopinto: This is non graphical?
[16:31] <joaopinto> ValentineXX, what is the folder name, you should not change system folders owner...
[16:32] <joaopinto> ackbahr, yes, it's a command line utility to mount samba shares
[16:32] <mikebeecham> Jack_Sparrow: I am not on wireless
[16:32] <joaopinto> you can also use smbfs, which provides support for the regular mount command
[16:32] <ericrost> in hardy is there any way to define a custom action to take when a DVD is inserted in the drive? There used to be, and now it seems the nautilus preference that controls it offers less flexibility
[16:32] <ValentineXX> joaopinto: i am trying to install new screen lock dialogue
[16:32] <ackbahr> joaopinto: And I'm not aiming at distant mounting, you can imagine I'm stuck with console and no X....
[16:32] <Jack_Sparrow> mikebeecham rework that for ethernet
[16:32] <apo> Hey, any ideas how I could make xargs stop after one command returns an error?
[16:33] <joaopinto> ValentineXX, you are not expected to change a dir to yourself, instead you need to run the copy command as root, sudo
[16:33] <ackbahr> joaopinto: Just like my windows partition (on the same computer!) can be mounted from inside Ubuntu
[16:33] <mikebeecham> Jack_Sparrow: I just tried sudo iwconfig eth0 rate 54M, but that returned a "operation not supported"
[16:33] <Jack_Sparrow> mikebeecham I cna help.. kinda busy here
[16:33] <ValentineXX> joaopinto: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Susbuntu+Lock+Dialog?content=77558
[16:33] <joaopinto> ackbahr, like I said, use smbmount ;)
[16:33] <juancabrito> hi! sound doesn't work... I followed the instructions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=866965 and it worked, but since the last automatic update it failed again. Now I don't have sound, what can I do?
[16:33] <ValentineXX> joaopinto: there they are saying in instructions what should i do?
[16:34] <ackbahr> joaopinto: Ok, thanks
[16:34] <joaopinto> ValentineXX, their instructions seem clear enough, there is no need to change a folder owner there...
[16:34] <Jack_Sparrow> mikebeecham would that not be ifconfig
[16:34] <ackbahr> joaopinto: Packet doesn't exist
[16:34] <mikebeecham> Jack_Sparrow: thanks anyway
 http://www.canonical.com/aboutus/contactus right ?
[16:35] <ValentineXX> joaopinto: i do not understand their instructions as i do not know much about ubuntu
[16:35] <Anscombe> This the place to come ask my random noobie questions?
[16:35] <joaopinto> ackbahr, sorry, it's provided by the smbfs package
[16:35] <mikebeecham> can anyone help me change the LAN network speed on my wired connection?  What commands should I use?
[16:35] <joaopinto> ValentineXX, they provide you the exact commands that you need to type....
[16:35] <juancabrito> Anscombe: ask
[16:35] <joaopinto> gfather, right
[16:35] <ValentineXX> joaopinto: ok i try
[16:36] <mikebeecham> Jack_Sparrow: I dont know...I dont know linux commands or useage yet...not long been using it
[16:36] <juancabrito> I don't have sound, what can I do?
[16:36] <Jack_Sparrow> mikebeecham ifconfig
[16:36] <Jack_Sparrow> mikebeecham  man ifconfig
[16:36] <scunizi> I did  a Google search and click the mouse button then ALL OF A SUDDEN all the text became right justified on the screen .. how do I get it back to the standard left justified.?
[16:37] <ValentineXX> joaopinto: valentine@Valentine-Ubuntu:~$ cd Desktop/XeiaieX-susbuntu-lock.tar.gz
[16:37] <ValentineXX> bash: cd: Desktop/XeiaieX-susbuntu-lock.tar.gz: Not a director
[16:37] <joaopinto> jack-desktop, ifconfig does not allow to set the speed
[16:37] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[16:37] <joaopinto> ops, was for Jack_Sparrow
[16:37] <Maizcul> right justification in firefox?
[16:38] <Maizcul> it could be due to settings, try "view --> character encoding" what is selected?
[16:38] <joaopinto> mikearr, Jack_Sparrow , man mii-tool
[16:38] <joaopinto> ops, was for mikebeecham
[16:38] <elmnas> hi can someone prefer agood program like screenlets with gadjets etc?
[16:38] <scunizi> gfather http://www.ubuntu.com/partners
[16:39] <mikebeecham> Jack_Sparrow: thanks...I'll go learn for a week first...sorry to sound ungrateful, but I cant use my network and dont have time to learn linux right now.  Sorry mate, I know that sounds harsH!
[16:39] <mikebeecham> joaopinto: what was that sorry mate>?
[16:39] <elmnas> does osmeone prefer agood gadjet program?
[16:39] <joaopinto> mikearr, the command to change an ethernet card speed is mii-tool
[16:40] <joaopinto> elmnas, try google gadgets
[16:40] <elmnas> what that?
[16:40] <joaopinto> elmnas, google.com, google gadgets
[16:40] <elmnas> ok
[16:40] <robert> i'm having trouble syncing my palm treo, should i try it with the 8.04 live cd?
[16:41] <quambo> my swap no longer gets set on boot after editing partitions with parted (since i didn't think ubuntu needed so much space for its boot partition). fstab seems to have a strange format, i've never seen this UUID value. how do i configure this? does the normal fstab format work?
[16:41] <joaopinto> quambo, you can list the UUIDs with: blkid
[16:42] <juancabrito> hi, sound doesn't work, what can I do
[16:42] <joaopinto> quambo, the plain fstab format does work, but it's preferable UUIDs, since those do not change when you delete/add partitions, unlke the logical nr
[16:42] <ackbahr> joaopinto: Well, if I had figured out earlier that it was /dev/sda1 and NOT /dev/hda1....
[16:42] <robert> my sound didn't work until 7.10
[16:42] <joaopinto> juancabrito, is your sound card listed on "lpsci" ?
[16:42] <dazeXx> Hello everyone
[16:43] <quambo> joaopinto: ah thank you :)
[16:43] <mikebeecham> joaopinto: I found the command to see what my duplex was, and I have 100mbps full duplex, but when I try ethtool eth1 then it tells me that it cannot get device settings?  Does this make any sense to you
[16:43] <qcjn> how can i do a log history/report of rsync, that i'm going to do, cause someone told me i had to specify it before ?
[16:43] <dazeXx> guys I'm having a weird problem on my Intrepid with Firefox (and sometimes other programs) and I can't find anything on Google.. thought I could ask here
[16:43] <Scorchin> anyone know off their head the C++ SDL library name for ubuntu?
[16:43] <ortsvorsteher> !wlan
[16:43] <dazeXx> sometimes my Firefox just closes without issuing any message or anything
[16:43] <joaopinto> mikebeecham, is eth1 your device name ? have you checked with ifconfig -a ?
[16:43] <dazeXx> if I run it from the terminal, before closing down it writes 'Aborted.' in the terminal
[16:44] <joaopinto> Scorchin, apt-cache search libsdl dev
[16:44] <dazeXx> this happens when it becomes too loaded
[16:44] <dazeXx> I guess
[16:44] <dazeXx> just my observation that is
[16:44] <Scorchin> thanks joaopinto!
[16:44] <mikebeecham> joaopinto: I have eth0 and also a 'lo' (loopback)
[16:44] <dazeXx> so maybe you guys have an experience / understanding?
[16:44] <DarkKnight> hey can anyone tell me any gud software good enough to build a website
[16:44] <juancabrito> joaopinto: I don't know.. but it worked until I installed VMWare, after that I supposed the VM had control over the card, then I followed the instructions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=866965 and it worked again
[16:44] <joaopinto> dazeXx, that is most likely to be an addon or plugin issue
[16:44] <Lunar_Lamp> How can I sync my mp3 player with rhythmbox? It is detected fine by rhythmbox, but I can't see a button to copy across the recent additions to my music library on my pc.
[16:44] <incepator__> dazeXx me too I also have this problem
[16:45] <juancabrito> joaopinto: now, after the last automatic update it doesn't work again
[16:45] <dazeXx> joaopinto: I only have Firebug and I don't think this would cause the problem
[16:45] <mikebeecham> joaopinto: I also have an pan0
[16:45] <jorge_> Hi guys
[16:45] <mikebeecham> joaopinto: eth0 should be the main one I think!
[16:45] <joaopinto> dazeXx, you should run firefox from the terminal and check for errors when the crash occurs
[16:45] <tatters> If I installed ubuntu server on a bare bones amd box and took the drive and put it in a bare bones  pentium box would there be any problems,
[16:45] <dazeXx> joaopinto: like I have said, it writes 'Aborted.' before closing down in the terminal
[16:45] <joaopinto> mikebeecham, do you have an eth0 on ifconfig ?
[16:45] <juancabrito> joaopinto: and that guide is now useless
[16:46] <joaopinto> dazeXx, ok. that just means it crashed, not much of a help :P
[16:46] <dazeXx> DarkKnight: if youre on that level, try Dreamweaver
[16:46] <jorge_> I am new here and I would like to get some help with ubuntu, anyone are able to help me with some tips.
[16:46] <dazeXx> jorge_: what d'u need
[16:46] <joaopinto> juancabrito, please check your mixer settings, on some conditions the PCM level is set to 0, no sound
[16:46] <DarkKnight> dazeXz; do we have the version for ubuntu??
[16:46] <joaopinto> !anyone | jorge_
[16:46] <dazeXx> DarkKnight: I think it has platinum rating in WineHQ
[16:47] <scunizi> !html | DarkKnight
[16:47] <bobbycheetah> Is there any way to show hidden files automatically when I go to Places, home folder - for example?  Or is the only way to go to view and select it every time?
[16:47] <mikebeecham> joaopinto: yessir.  When I try sudo ethtool eth0, I can see that I have 1000Mb/s and full duplex
[16:47] <juancabrito> joaopinto: it isn't
[16:47] <jorge_> well dazexx, to be honest a lot of thinks , as I am new in this
[16:47] <dazeXx> joaopinto: this generally happens when there is intense swapping, at least thats my observation
[16:47] <mikebeecham> joaopinto: sorry, 100Mb/s
[16:47] <joaopinto> mikebeecham, and what are you trying to achieve ?
[16:47] <dazeXx> so I want to find out why on earth does my browser have to close down!!
[16:47] <nocturno> hi all
[16:47] <DarkKnight> dazeXz; its not there in the repos
[16:48] <Anscombe> for the partition, whats a good amount of space for ubuntu?
[16:48] <dazeXx> DarkKnight: you should install it under Wine
[16:48] <jorge_> Can you tell me how do I can update to a new version of ubuntu?
[16:48] <incidence> How to define "default" GPU to Xorg.conf. Xorg can't now start cause I have two graphic adapters (nvidia 6600 GT and nvidia 8600 GT)
[16:48] <dazeXx> DarkKnight: its not an opensource / free application, Wine is simply able to run it as a Windows application
[16:48] <mikebeecham> joaopinto: I have a mac and a linux machine on the same network....the mac is running fine, but the lInux machine's browsing and downloading speed is VERY VERY slow...something is wrong and I can't figure out what mate.
[16:48] <Ranakah> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[16:48] <joaopinto> mikebeecham, ah ok :\
[16:49] <joaopinto> mikebeecham, is your dns properly configured ?
[16:49]  * dazeXx is wondering if joaopinto is the celebrity around here
[16:49] <DarkKnight> dazeXz; but i have never been able to do any proper installation of softwares under wine..though i have installed wine
[16:49] <joaopinto> mikebeecham, it could be a driver issue, not related to the network speed setting
[16:49] <mikebeecham> joaopinto: it's been running fine for weeks without issue...it suddenly stopped working yesterday
[16:49] <Soepstengel> Is there a good web-interface application for lm-sensors?
[16:49] <dazeXx> DarkKnight: I'm running World of Warcraft and Photoshop under Wine and they seem to run flawlessly
[16:50] <joaopinto> mikebeecham, that is very odd, I would only expect such problems after a kernel upgrade...
[16:50] <dazeXx> mikebeecham: obviously something has changed in your linux yesterday.
[16:50] <HentaiXP> How to kill a a process that is stuck?
[16:50] <nocturno> i have about 5 years experience in FreeBSD server environment and want to try ubuntu for server, what's the "best practices" for ubuntu server do you suggest me to read ?
[16:50] <dazeXx> actually
[16:50] <dazeXx> yesterday there was a kernel update, right?
[16:50] <joaopinto> HentaiXP, man ps and man kill
[16:50] <HentaiXP> firefox is stuck and there is no taskmgr thing that I can find
[16:50] <mikebeecham> dazeXx: I would agree mate, but being a noob at linux I have no idea how to troubleshoot this
[16:50] <HentaiXP> joaopinto: from the gui
[16:50] <dazeXx> british, meh
[16:51] <ompaul> mikebeecham, have you tried logging out and back in?
[16:51] <joaopinto> HendriXXX, System -> Admin -> System monitor
[16:51] <joaopinto> ops, was for HentaiXP
[16:51] <dazeXx> HentaiXP: ps -elf |grep firefox
[16:51] <HentaiXP> no CLI thing
[16:51] <dazeXx> then $kill PID
[16:51] <joaopinto> HentaiXP, pkill firefox
[16:51] <aditya1> I just updated  my system (ubuntu 8.04) to the latest available packages yesterday. Initially when i start the computer , the keyboard works properly, after some time it stops working completely and at times starts again. Is this some kind system problem ?? or my computer has been infected by some malicious program,virus,etc ?
[16:52] <ompaul> !virus | aditya1
[16:52] <dazeXx> aditya1: malicious program is highly unlikely
[16:52] <DarkKnight> dazeXz; kk.. wen i try 2 install it under wine....it tries to install in windows directories
[16:52] <joaopinto> aditya1, there is no known wild virus/malware for linux
[16:52] <ompaul> aditya1, have you rebooted since you upgraded?
[16:52] <HentaiXP> seriously you guys got a problem with killing it though the gui, I don't care if this is linux, I would expect the gui first
[16:52] <HentaiXP> esp for ubuntu
[16:52] <dazeXx> DarkKnight: that's right, those Win dirs are really mapped to a linux dir on your machine
[16:52] <Anscombe> "An error occured while writing the changed to the storage devices. The resize operation has been aborted"
[16:52] <Anscombe> changes*
[16:52] <mikebeecham> ompaul: I've tried switching off my machine, switching off my router, and lots of other things.  One thing I should also mention is that I have been able to connect to my linux machine from the mac to grab shared folders.  I can still see the linux shared folders in the mac but trying to transfer anything is painfully slow....so there is something def wrong
[16:52] <joaopinto> HentaiXP, I Already provided you the GUI option !
[16:52] <dazeXx> HentaiXP: joaopinto told you how
[16:52] <HentaiXP> joaopinto: yes you did and thanks
[16:53] <aditya1> ompaul: joaopinto: i know there are no viruses but the KBD stops working at times
[16:53] <DarkKnight> dazeXz; ohh... then in which directory am i supposed to install
[16:53] <ompaul> mikebeecham, check your cabling
[16:53] <joaopinto> but in general, we prefer the client, yes, that is common to linux users, it's a matter of preference, you are free to like ir or not :)
[16:53] <mikebeecham> ompaul: have done that as well :(
[16:53] <ompaul> aditya1, did you reboot?
[16:53] <dazeXx> DarkKnight: whichever you desire
[16:53] <joaopinto> erm, client = terminal
[16:53] <dazeXx> I think those are mapped to a directory in your home
[16:53] <bobbycheetah> nevermind. i found the answer.
[16:53] <incidence> When tryign to start GDM/X I get error: "More than one possible primary device found"
[16:53] <incidence> * Trying
[16:53] <aditya1> ompaul: joaopinto: yes , i have rebooted several times
[16:53] <ompaul> mikebeecham, ifconfig and see if you have transmission errors
[16:54] <dazeXx> DarkKnight: those are mapped to ~/.wine/drive_c/
[16:54] <tatters> is it possible to install ubuntu on a bare bone box and move the drive to another box?
[16:54] <ompaul> aditya1, try to see if there is another upgrade still available (i.e. something did not upgrade yesterday that should have)
[16:54] <dazeXx> ah come on guys someone help me with my firefox problem :(
[16:54] <aditya1> ompaul: i just checked before 10 mins
[16:54] <ompaul> tatters, yes but note that you may have issues if the box i
[16:55] <aditya1> ompaul: and everything is updated..
[16:55] <ompaul> tatters, if the box is seriously different or you install specific restricted drivers
[16:55] <zackfett> hey i need some help, when i go into the program thing to install programs, it says <program>  cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type.
[16:55] <ompaul> aditya1, put the keyboard in a different slot
[16:56] <Non-TV> how do i change compiz settings in 8.10?
[16:56] <zackfett> i need some help, when i go into the program thing to install programs, it says <program>  cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type.
[16:56] <dazeXx> Non-TV: you have to install the compiz configurator separately
[16:56] <aditya1> ompaul: have only one slot, but i checked the keyboard in centOS and it works well on it....currently i am on ubuntu 8.04
[16:56] <tiyowan> MS Vista has 50 million lines of code?!
[16:56] <nbeebo> !hal
[16:57] <TuxSympathiser> I am using ubuntu intrepid and the new e1000e driver apears to be causing crashes, is it possible to revert back to e1000?
[16:57] <nbeebo> i get HAL error what can that mean?
[16:57] <zackfett> i need some help, when i go into the program thing to install programs, it says <program>  cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type.
[16:57] <Non-TV> dazeXx: : ah, where do i start? cmopiz website or some packagelib?
[16:57] <dazeXx> Non-TV: sudo apt-get install compiz-gnome iirc
[16:57] <ompaul> aditya1, and you have checked it on centos since this problem started?
[16:57] <HentaiXP> joaopinto: thanks but I would suggest the gui way next time esp for any noobs, or otherwise due to the fact that I see ubuntu trying to best windows.
[16:57] <ompaul> !offtopic | tiyowan
[16:57] <aditya1> ompaul: yes, everything is well on centOS
[16:57] <zackfett> i need some help, when i go into the program thing to install programs, it says <program>  cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type.
[16:57] <nbeebo> i get HAL error what is that?
[16:57] <UnknownUser56> tiyowan,I can't see what point your trying to prove ,go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[16:57] <przemson> Hi, how can I turn off X? I'd like to start it later with startx.
[16:58] <ompaul> aditya1, looks like hal is having a problem and other than use a different port I don't have an answer for you
[16:58] <tiyowan> Yes, sorry, should discuss this over there.
[16:58] <dietwater> Is eclipse supposed to take up 600MB+?
[16:58] <dazeXx> dietwater: only eclipse itself - no
[16:58] <Anscombe> "An error occured while writing the changed to the storage devices. The resize operation has been aborted" - what do i do :/
[16:58] <mibbitfrog> yikes maybe if you have all of the components
[16:59] <Non-TV> compiz-gnome is already the newest version.
[16:59] <Non-TV> E: Couldn't find package iirc
[16:59] <zackfett> i need some help, when i go into the program thing to install programs, it says <program>  cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type.
[16:59] <nbeebo> !hal
[16:59] <aditya1> ompaul :: hal is having a problem ???
[16:59] <joaopinto> dietwater, if you count with it's dependencies, maybe
[16:59] <dietwater> sudo apt-get install eclipse says 675MB disk space will be used.
[16:59] <zackfett> WILL SOMEONE HELP FOR ONCE
[16:59] <dietwater> K.
[16:59] <dietwater> Since java isn't installed on nix?
[16:59] <RequinB4> !patience | zackfett
[16:59] <TuxSympathiser> is it possible to use the e1000 driver instead of e1000e?
[16:59] <nbeebo> u gotta be manipulative...
[16:59] <joaopinto> dietwater, please note that by default intrepid installs the "recommended" packages, not only the "required"
[16:59] <ompaul> aditya1, the hardware abstraction layer
[16:59] <RequinB4> zackfett: you may want to be more speific as well, what program 'thing' and what program
[17:00] <dietwater> kk.
[17:00] <joaopinto> dietwater, yes, java will need to be installed
[17:00] <zackfett> the program uninstaller, and installer
[17:00] <aditya1> ompaul: ok
[17:00] <dietwater> k, cause the dependencies are a page+ long
[17:00] <mibbitfrog> i never tried grabbing it from the repository, i just download the tar.gz from the site, it doesnt need to be installed, just extracted to /opt or where you want it, kinda like firefox if you've ever installed it manually
[17:00] <joaopinto> dietwater, are you installint from command line ?
[17:00] <dietwater> yes
[17:00] <theis> pussy
[17:00] <mibbitfrog> just make sure you got java runtime
[17:00] <theis> cat
[17:00] <ompaul> aditya1, however what you describe is typical of some hardware problem with a keyboard or the machine itself
[17:00] <dazeXx> if someone has an experience with Firefox crashing with no plugins (except Firebug) randomly during intense swapping and outputting 'Aborted.' in the terminal, please message me.
[17:00] <dietwater> sudo apt-get install eclipse; 0 upgraded, 121 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[17:00] <dietwater> Need to get 266MB of archives.
[17:00] <dietwater> After this operation, 675MB of additional disk space will be used.
[17:00] <zackfett> oh and also, how do i stop from seeing people joining and leaving
[17:01] <dietwater> sorry, didn't think it'd do new messages.
[17:01] <joaopinto> dietwater, you can use apt-get install --no-install-recommends
[17:01] <zackfett> cause this is annoying in this channel
[17:01] <aditya1> ompaul: is there a possibility of my keystrokes being sent to some one else ?
[17:01] <mibbitfrog> firefox runs like a charm for me, unless i have the flash plugin loaded
[17:01] <RequinB4> zackfett: in pidgin it's in preferences
[17:01] <zackfett> in gaim?
[17:01] <RequinB4> zackfett: it depends on your irc client
[17:01] <dietwater> E: Command line option --no-install-recommend is not understood
[17:01] <zackfett> im on 7.04
[17:01] <RequinB4> zackfett: same thing
[17:01] <ASrock> i have a lexmark x5075 printer...where can i get drivers for it?
[17:01] <ompaul> aditya1, is it wireless?
[17:01] <zackfett> ok
[17:01] <joaopinto> dietwater, before the install sorry
[17:01] <dazeXx> mibbitfrog: hmm that makes me think about the flash plugin. Could it cause that?
[17:01] <nbeebo> i get HAL error what is that?
[17:01] <aditya1> ompaul: no
[17:01] <mibbitfrog> fierfox will lockup and crash a lot with flash, i cant even use flash 10 (segfaults every time) i use flash9
[17:02] <RequinB4> zacfett: upgrade, fiesty is no longer supported
[17:02] <ompaul> aditya1, then no
[17:02] <joaopinto> dietwater, and its recommends, not recommend
[17:02] <dazeXx> mibbitfrog: I'm using flash from Adobe.
[17:02] <aditya1> ompaul: ok...thanks
[17:02] <mibbitfrog> that is the only reason for me firefox has been unstable, without flash i hardly ever get a crash
[17:02] <dietwater> Thank you, it is less
[17:02] <zackfett> requinb4, its not in there
[17:02] <mibbitfrog> yes if you have flash plugin its probably that
[17:02] <dietwater> down to 266.
[17:02] <nbeebo> !help
[17:02] <dazeXx> mibbitfrog: how did you find out it was the flash?
[17:02] <RequinB4> zackfett: upgrade
[17:02] <zackfett> i cant.
[17:02] <dazeXx> mibbitfrog: the terminal only outputs 'Aborted.'
[17:02] <mibbitfrog> hmm
[17:03] <zackfett> i dont have a cd burner
[17:03] <kurrata> is there some file or something where i can edit what is shown in "places" bar?
[17:03] <mooglinux> adobe released a pre-alpha 64-bit flash. it works rather well for m
[17:03] <mooglinux> me
[17:03] <Aquina> hello
[17:03] <joaopinto> dietwater, please note that eclipse will only work with the java sun jre, please check the wiki, are are specific instructions required to make it work on ubuntu
[17:03] <RequinB4> !hi
[17:03] <Aquina> :-)
[17:03] <mibbitfrog> i only got segfault on the newest version, im forced to use flash 9, but i still get crashes and lockups
[17:03] <nbeebo> !bye
[17:03] <mibbitfrog> try browsing with flash removed for awhile
[17:03] <zackfett> i need some help, when i go into the program thing to install programs, it says <program>  cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type.
[17:04] <mibbitfrog> flash is most likely the culpret
[17:04] <joaopinto> zackfett, what "program thing" ?
[17:04] <bazhang> zackfett, feisty is eol. you should upgrade if you want support.
[17:04] <zackfett> the program manager
[17:04] <never2far> how can i see the code for a pressed key
[17:04] <zackfett> I CANT UPGRADE
[17:04] <never2far> i know there is a program for this
[17:04] <TuxSympathiser> is it possible to use the ethernet driver e1000 instead of the new unimproved e1000e?
[17:04] <joaopinto> zackfett, and we can't support it :)
[17:04] <dazeXx> mibbitfrog: there should be some sort of an open alternative to flash for linux.. is it worth to try?
[17:04] <bazhang> zackfett, sure you can; you dont need a cd to do so.
[17:04] <etz> zackfett do dist-upgrade from commandline
[17:04] <zackfett> yeah last time i did that
[17:04] <mibbitfrog> its worth a try.. but the ones ive tried are crap and wont work with most sites
[17:05] <zackfett> it made my linux go FUBAR
[17:05] <nbeebo> ok do a new formate then
[17:05] <Relisys> hi
[17:05] <RequinB4> !hi
[17:05] <nbeebo> !bye
[17:05] <bazhang> nbeebo, ??
[17:05] <dazeXx> mibbitfrog: an interesting point here - Opera does not crash ever, although it presumably uses the same flash plugin
[17:05] <etz> do clean install then... basically program that you trying to installl probably desnt support your old version
[17:05] <Aquina> I've got a general Linux question... I wrote some scripts in the past located in different locations "/home/aquina/.wine/", "/home/aquina/.config/streamripper/", etc. Is there any best practive where to store all my srcips - no matter what application they belong to?
[17:05] <chris_____> help, I hit a key sequence that inverted my display.  Everything that was white is now black and vice versa
[17:05] <Relisys> what file system do i need to select for my linux to run on a virtual box?
[17:06] <dazeXx> Aquina: depends on what the scripts are?
[17:06] <mibbitfrog> i havent used opera since my windows days
[17:06] <nbeebo> relisys go #vbox
[17:06] <zackfett> i need some help, when i go into the program thing to install programs, it says <program>  cannot be installed on your computer type (i386). Either the application requires special hardware features or the vendor decided to not support your computer type.
[17:06] <etz> relisys ext2 should be fine
[17:06] <mibbitfrog> but flash is widely known to be horrible on linux, in firefox anyway
[17:06] <dazeXx> zackfett: you are getting a bit annoying :)
[17:06] <zackfett> good.
[17:06] <nbeebo> we hate u
[17:06] <mibbitfrog> if it works in opera its worth a shot
[17:06] <zackfett> i need some help
[17:07] <mooglinux> what program are you trying to install?
[17:07] <zackfett> x chat
[17:07] <bazhang> zackfett, which exact program
[17:07] <dazeXx> zackfett: we realize that.
[17:07] <zackfett> and java
[17:07] <onefunk> greetings all,
[17:07] <Aquina> dazeXx: For games the're starting them. Regarding streamripper they provide more functionality.
[17:07] <Relisys> nbeebo: thanks.

[17:08] <qzip> can you help me please?
[17:08] <FloodBot1> qzip: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:08] <zackfett> i had intrepid ibex but i had to downgrade because it was being weird
[17:08] <dazeXx> Aquina: hm if those scripts are for starting an application, you might want to put them in /usr/bin
[17:08] <DarkKnight> dazeXz; that's not possible...okk tell me about free softwares then
[17:08] <etz> downgrade to hardy?
[17:08] <nbeebo> zackfett, i think u got 64bits ubuntu, just do a fresh install please
[17:09] <dazeXx> DarkKnight: aww lemme think
[17:09] <zackfett> i dont have 64bit
[17:09] <Reformer81> Could someone please tell me how to fix this bug:  I'm running Ubuntu 8.10 and EVERY time I start Firefox while Compiz is running, it has no window decorations (title bar, border, etc), and it takes up the entire screen.
[17:09] <dazeXx> DarkKnight: I don't know any WYSIWYG but you can use plain editors to write HTML
[17:09] <zackfett> 32 bit came with the cd i got
[17:09] <bazhang> nbeebo, thats not helpful. please stop.

[17:10] <zackfett> _pv_ use youtube
[17:10] <zackfett> it has a link to flash player site
[17:10] <nbeebo> is there a ubuntu channel with less people?
[17:10] <joaopinto> zackfett, please stop, you are not beeing helpful
[17:10] <chris_____> my display is inverted, what key sequence will return it to normal (I see black for white, white for black)
[17:10] <zackfett> it worked on this
[17:10] <_PV_> thanks, i ll try
[17:10] <zackfett> get one of them, it will work
[17:10] <joaopinto> zackfett, if you installed flash like that you may get into troubles
[17:11] <zackfett> it was free
[17:11] <joaopinto> zackfett, just because it works, does not mean it is recommended
[17:11] <RequinB4> nbeebo: more people = more likely someone knows your answer
[17:11] <joaopinto> zackfett, that is not the proper way to install flash on ubuntu, please stop
[17:11] <carandraug> chr

[17:14] <carandraug> Reformer81: is it full screen mode? If you press f11 does it go back to normal?
[17:14] <RequinB4> dazeXx: you can use pidgin and install pidgin-plugin-pack there is a plugin that hides join/leave messages
[17:14] <nbeebo> and what is it?
[17:14] <Reformer81> carandraug: Nope... I've checked that too.
[17:14] <Reformer81> carandraug: Also while it's doing this, the ALT-Click combination (to move the window) has no effect on Firefox.
[17:14] <dazeXx> RequinB4: that's not what I meant, I really meant the amount of questions / problems and those who are trying to help :)
[17:15] <dazeXx> RequinB4: and things like 'My webcam used to work but now it doesn't' :)
 press f11 few times it helps for me when firefox decides to hide evrything ^^

[17:16] <bahr> Hi I need a program like Microsoft Visio, to make create figures, and models in an easy way. Is there some application which can do this for Ubuntu, and is easy to use?
[17:16] <RequinB4> dazeXx: not quite up to ubuntu philosophy but helps to play it safe http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
[17:17] <dazeXx> I've seen that :)
 can you resize it with alt+f8?
[17:17] <Relisys> Guys is 512 ram and 1024 swap  good enough allocation for a vbox to run linux comfortably?
[17:17] <etz> bahr why dont you try http://projects.gnome.org/dia/
[17:18] <joaopinto> bahr, have you tried the open office drawing ?
[17:18] <Reformer81> kurrata: Hmm.. I'm unable to reproduce it now :)  Seems to happen until I shutdown Compiz, start Firefox, start Compiz, close Firefox... then it starts normally.
[17:18] <dazeXx> bahr I am using dia for that
[17:18] <nbeebo> when i rebooted after power went of i got HAL error, nothing seems to be wrong, how do i troubleshoot?
[17:18] <joaopinto> Relisys, yes, should be fine
[17:18] <mikebeecham> joaopinto: mate...I figured it out...but not happy.  It was a dodgy microfilter :(
[17:18] <RequinB4> Relisys: should be, i'd add more ram if you have extra but its not necessary
[17:18] <bazhang> Relisys, which linux
[17:18] <Relisys> xfce
[17:18] <mikebeecham> replaced the filter and it's working fine
[17:18] <DarkKnight> dazeXx; i think quanta plus is just an editor
[17:18] <Relisys> ubuntu
[17:18] <dazeXx> we have to be fair though, dia <<< visio :(
[17:18] <RequinB4> Relisys: more than enough for xubuntu
[17:18] <Relisys> :)
[17:18] <Relisys> thank you

[17:19] <bahr> dazeXx: No haven't tried openoffice drawing, thanks for the dia thing, I'll look at that
[17:19] <dazeXx> DarkKnight: maybe, I don't use wysiwyg for html
[17:19] <bazhang> in a vbox? on what system Relisys
[17:19] <dazeXx> dia is fairly small and lightweight
[17:19] <Relisys> bazhang: vista
[17:19] <Relisys> i have 3gig ram
[17:19] <bahr> it doesn't matter how small it is, just that it is easy to create models and figures :)

[17:20] <dazeXx> ubottu: thank you captain obvious
[17:20] <bazhang> Relisys, well then up the ram if that is not enough, should do if you have extra (I thought you had 512 total)
