[14:40] <avishek_> Has anyone deployed an LTSP architecture with Ubuntu in an enterprise environment? If so, could someone please advise an absolute newbie on how to start out?
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado: put the .so file in ~/.mozilla/plugins
[14:40] <MattFarrel> commonwarrior: used gparted, virtualization just make headache if we don't ready.
[14:40] <Yellerado> ActionParsnip: I will try that
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado: you will need to create the plugins directory
[14:40] <Gianlu24> !it
[14:40] <commonwarrior> mattfarrel what is it?
[14:41] <heru_indo> hello, someone please help me about canon MP145 printer, this is the problems: control panel was not responding, power indicator keep flashing.
[14:41] <Yellerado> ActionParsnip: It says that directory doesn't exist
[14:41] <Tomatix> I got some installation issues (alternate install cd), after I have set up the partitions, it loads some software, etc, and suddenly it comes up with "Insert disc "Ubuntu ----" and press enter"... It's weird though, cus its a complete install CD, and if I try to insert another ubuntu CD I still cannot hit continiue, nor can I choose the "Go back" option. I've tried with many different versions of ubuntu (other cd-s) with same result... Even
[14:41] <Tomatix>  the beta acts like that.
[14:41] <JacobT> hey room i have an ati 1300 and i have really bad artifcating on the rt hand sie
[14:42] <JacobT> side*
[14:42] <laurisx> ActionParsnip: I try to follow instructions in the VIA driver readme. I do "chmod +x autogen.sh". And then it says to do "chmod +x autogen.sh". But I end up with a message: "./autogen.sh: 11: autoreconf: not found".
[14:42] <MattFarrel> commonwarrior: VM, Vbox and et all is not to be perfectly.
[14:42] <bazhang> Tomatix, karmic support in #ubuntu+1
[14:42] <Tomatix> bazhang, its not about the karmic, its about installing any cds.
[14:43] <Tomatix> its with the 8.10 , 9.04 and the beta.
[14:43] <bazhang> Tomatix, thought you mentioned the beta, my mistake
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> laurisx: then you need to satisy it
[14:43] <laurisx> do what?
[14:43] <Yellerado> ActionParsnip: I should probably note that this is opera
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> laurisx: i think the crome driver that comes with ubuntu may do you ok
[14:43] <laurisx> Where do I get that?
[14:43] <avishek_> oh dear oh dear. LTSP on Ubuntu anyone?
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado: then put it in the opera plugins folder
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado: you can run: sudo find / -name opera | grep plug    to find the plugin folder

[14:45] <phix> avishek_: ?
[14:45] <harisund> Hello everyone I am planning on installing the 64 bit Ubuntu on a desktop here at work. What is the state of Ubuntu 64? (Primarily does it do Adobe Flash, Adobe PDF reader and Sun Java in particular . i am not interested in Gnash, Evince or Blackjack or whatever)
[14:45] <bazhang> BrainYang, english here please
[14:45] <DaZ> ActionParsnip: imo it doesn't require sudo <:
[14:45] <laurisx> ActionParsnip: How do I find / use the Chrome driver you mentioned?
[14:46] <vivek111585> i have a graphics problem
[14:46] <avishek_> phix: I was wondering about deploying an Ubuntu-base LTSP architecture on my office network. I would appreciate pointers on how to achieve this
[14:46] <vivek111585> when i signed in as administrator user my graphics resolution change  as i restart computer but when i sign in as user it does  not change
[14:46] <harisund> Is this the right channel to ask for 64 Bit Ubuntu help or is there a dedicated 64 bit channel?
[14:46] <grawity> harisund: Just ask.
[14:47] <bazhang> harisund, this is it
[14:47] <harisund> grawity, already did
[14:47] <avishek_> vivek111585: the two accounts have different resolution settings
[14:47] <downstar> other then dmesg what can i use to view my display devices?
[14:47] <ActionParsnip> laurisx: the guid eI gave gives an xorg.conf snippet you can use. see how you go
[14:47] <JacobT> im new to ubuntu and it some parts lock up on my system
[14:47] <Yellerado> ActionParsnip: It didn't find anything
[14:47] <ActionParsnip> DaZ: just stops the access denied errors, so the outputs are only file rather than files and errors.
[14:47] <harisund> grawity, bazhang I want to know the situation of Adobe Flash, Adobe PDF Reader and Sun Java on 64 bit Ubuntu .. are they readily in the repos? I am not interested in Gnash, Evince and the open source Java implementation
[14:48] <vivek111585> but i hav 2 chng dis setting each time when i start my computer
[14:48] <avishek_> vivek111585: set both accounts to the same resolution settings System->Preferences->Display
[14:48] <ubunoob> So I have to install kubuntu on my home PC. Should I download 9.04 or wait for 9.10?
[14:48] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado: try /usr/lib/opera/plugins
[14:48] <trancefat> ActionParsnip: I did memtest and checked cd for deffects, but no luck.. do you think i should download another live cd? Maybe both cd s i tried are faulty (they were both kepth in the same CDs folder)
[14:48] <vivek111585> i hav already done it
[14:48] <grawity> harisund: (Technically, the Sun Java _is_ open-source.)
[14:48] <DJones> ubunoob: Use 9.04, 9.10 is a month away from being complete
[14:48] <ActionParsnip> trancefat: not sure man, strange
[14:48] <arand> DaZ: it will avoid a whole lot of error outs, though I normally use 2>/dev/null for it sudo might be quicker...
[14:49] <harisund> grawity, yeah but it appears lots of Linux users prefer not to use that for some reason
[14:49] <trancefat> ActionParsnip: yes i agree.. thanks anyways for all your time... you ve helped me in the past as well :)
[14:49] <Yellerado> ActionParnsip: That worked
[14:49] <omac> JacobT: can you be more specific?  What did you do and then when does it lock up?
[14:49] <Yellerado> For some reason the folder is empty though
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> trancefat: i try
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado: no worries, just copy or symlink the file
[14:49] <JacobT> there are a few problems the first is if i go to install new applications tab and select a packag it will lock up and i have to kill it in system manager or terminal
[14:50] <avishek_> that's strange vivek111585
[14:50] <grawity> harisund: Well, Flash seems to be working. (but Flash works poor on Linux overall, no matter the arch.)
[14:51] <vivek111585> yeah
[14:51] <JacobT> softwhere sources does the same thing
[14:51] <harisund> grawity, that's true .. I just want to make sure they are in the repos that's all :)
[14:51] <JacobT> then if i have thunderbird open or a whole screen app thats a light color i get really back artifacting on my screeen
[14:51] <vivek111585> i hav reinstall graphic driver 2 solve dis
[14:51] <avishek_> could someone please advise vivek111585? i am unable to answer his question
[14:51] <Stonekeeper> Anyone else getting system freezes with 9.10 beta?
[14:52] <Gwynavere> hey all
[14:52] <grawity> harisund: I'm sure there's flashplugin-installer. (Many people just get it directly from Adobe; this is what -installer does too.)
[14:52] <omac> JacobT: now we're getting somewhere.  Are you impatient?  The synaptic/software centre take time to load the list, take time to download, take time to install.  In between all of these different stages, it's true the synaptic gui would lock up and you need to wait.
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> !karmic | Stonekeeper
[14:52] <Stonekeeper> thanks!
[14:52] <ubunoob> DJones: I'm in no rush. I'll be using my laptop for most of my important stuff.
[14:52] <Gwynavere> er im hoping for some advice?
[14:52] <harisund> grawity, all right man .. thanks let's see
[14:52] <BrainYang> why so many people love ubuntu
[14:52] <Yellerado> Ok, hopefully this works...
[14:52] <BrainYang> i love FreeBSD
[14:52] <jrib> !ot | BrainYang
[14:52] <grawity> BrainYang: Then use what you love, and don't waste your (and our) time trolling.
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> BrainYang: personal preference, some people  love windows
[14:53] <BrainYang> :-)
[14:53] <omac> jacobT:  the hint is that the gui turns a different colour...I think I recall gray... light gray when busy.  It's kind of like an hour glass mouse icon.
[14:53] <Gwynavere> i have no sound on my computerm i was wondering if i could get some help
[14:53] <Gwynavere> computer*
[14:53] <JacobT> yeah it gets there and never goes away
[14:53] <Gwynavere> hello?
[14:53] <DaZ> Gwynavere: did it work? ;f
[14:54] <MattFarrel> BrainYang: i love ubuntu.
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> Gwynavere: try: sudo lshw -C sound | grep product
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> BrainYang: i love puppy
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> and lamp
[14:54] <sipior> MattFarrel: don't feed the under-bridge dwellers.
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> and desk, and carpet
[14:55] <Yellerado_> ActionParsnip: I did exactly what you told, and flash still does not work correctly
[14:55] <stewart_> what happend to desk bar?
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado_: try IN ~/.opera/plugins
[14:55] <danny89> can anyone help me? i cant get my wireless adapter to work in ubuntu, my laptop is an amilo li1718
[14:55] <ubunoob> If I download kubuntu 9.04 now, Is it easy to upgrade from kubuntu 9.04 to 9.10? Or is it better to patiently wait for kubuntu 9.10 and then download that?
[14:55] <JacobT> i don't think any flash player works fuly in linux for any distro i'v tried sues, fedora, and ubuntu
[14:55] <bazhang> ubunoob, fairly easy with a net connection
[14:55] <Yellerado_> ActionParsnip: That's what I did...
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado_: theres a folder that opera hides its plugins, you need to drop the file in the folder
[14:56] <Yellerado_> ActionParnsip: I did put the plugins into that folder
[14:56] <haroelcabo> I'm desperate. For hours I'm trying a configuration of two machines with a matrix printer each, with cups, and one of the machines never can print to the remote printer.
[14:56] <scunizi> ubunoob: either way.. just expect you'll make some mistakes and want to reinstall at some point.. usually you don't have to but ... :)
[14:56] <haroelcabo> I don't know what is so wierd about cups
[14:57] <DaZ> ActionParsnip: opera uses mozilla directory too, maybe it's architecture related?  :f
[14:57] <trijntje> where can i find a dummy mbox file?
[14:57] <DaZ> like in 32bit plugin without the wrapper ;f
[14:57] <Yellerado_> ActionParsnip: I did notice something odd. On http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/, I noticed that while the flash test works fine, the shockwave test does not.
[14:57] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado_: is your ubuntu install 64bit?
[14:57] <DaZ> hm
[14:57] <Yellerado_> ActionParnsip: Like I said earlier, yes.
[14:57] <omac> JacobT:  Your apt package state is corrupted.  Do a search about how to clean your package state/cache. you will find an answer.
[14:58] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado_: theres currently no shockwave for Linux
[14:58] <ubunoob> I've had a lot of audio/flash issues with kubuntu 9.04 on my laptop. (Ex. flash player wont play music if amarok is playing music and stuff) Is this fixed in 9.10?
[14:58] <haroelcabo> I simply need to print in a shared printer
[14:58] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado_: afaik
[14:58] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado_: what is the output of: uname -a
[14:58] <Yellerado_> ActionParnsip: What I don't understand is that flash works perfectly fine on firefox, but not opera
[14:58] <ja> lll
[14:58] <Yellerado_> ActionParsnip: Linux Caesium 2.6.28-15-generic #52-Ubuntu SMP Wed Sep 9 10:48:52 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[14:58] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado_: you just need to find out what folder the plugins live
[14:58] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado_: ok it is 64bit
[14:59] <omac> JacobT: when installing the flash plugin, do click the show details button to see where the flash install script hangs....I recall something about a docs directory not existing causing an install problem.
[14:59] <Yellerado_> ActionParsnip: The opera plugins foldr is /usr/lib/opera/plugins
[14:59] <Yellerado_> *folder
[15:00] <Tomatix> Tried to change the CD/DVD drive and the error still remains, changing to the console 4, it seems it want to install a package named installation-report...
[15:00] <JacobT> mine installed fine it just lockes up and tings like that
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado_: try putting it in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
[15:00] <omac> this could put synaptic in an error state, but it wouldn't put it into a state that synaptic/aptitude would hang though.
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado_: and /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/
[15:00] <Yellerado_> ActionParsnip: They're already there, actually
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado_: hmm
[15:00] <haytham-med> hi all, how to create a desktop shortcut that runs a program in the terminal?
[15:01] <DaZ> Yellerado_: refresh plugins in opera preferences? ;f
[15:01] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser#64-bit%20Flash says: /usr/lib/opera/plugins/
[15:01] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado_: make sure opera is completely closed (use ps -ef | grep -i opera) then reopen after closing any down
[15:01] <Starke> hey all
[15:01] <SharpRain> How do I do it?!@
[15:02] <SharpRain> how do I get windows to stack like in windows
[15:02] <Yellerado_> ActionParsnip: Ok, brb
[15:02] <SharpRain> say there is 4 firefox windows
[15:02] <haytham-med> any one
[15:02] <SharpRain> I want it to only occupy onespace
[15:02] <SharpRain> and say "Firefox: 4"
[15:02] <SharpRain> and when i click it I can select which firefox window I have
[15:02] <SharpRain> how do I turn window "stacking" on?
[15:02] <bigjocker> SharpRain, are you talking about the task manager?
[15:02] <SharpRain> No
[15:02] <SharpRain> you know in windows
[15:02] <SharpRain> Windows*
[15:02] <SharpRain> how windows stack
[15:03] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado_: you could add a folder to opera's plugin paths
[15:03] <JacobT> YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound
[15:03] <scunizi> SharpRain: you mean "Tabs"
[15:03] <SharpRain> umm
[15:03] <SharpRain> Maybe
[15:03] <SharpRain> how do I enable tabs?
[15:03] <bigjocker> SharpRain, at the bottom you have a task manager, where you have all the running applications .... you want those application to be grouped by program
[15:03] <bazhang> !enter | SharpRain
[15:03] <bigjocker> SharpRain, is that correct?
[15:03] <SharpRain> yes
[15:04] <bigjocker> SharpRain, as far as I know you cant do that in gnome, but you can in KDE (using Kubuntu)
[15:04] <SharpRain> Hmm
[15:04] <SharpRain> Smart decision on their part
[15:04] <scunizi> SharpRain: Edit > Preferences > Tabs.. always show.. however right now you can right mouse click the bar where the single tab is and say "open new tab" and they will magically appear.
[15:04] <bigjocker> SharpRain, sorry
[15:04] <bigjocker> SharpRain, you can do that in gnome
[15:05] <bigjocker> SharpRain, right click on the taskbar and choose preferences
[15:05] <SharpRain> there is no preferences
[15:05] <SharpRain> there is properties?
[15:05] <twinie_addict> hi i want to roll my own 8.10 based ubuntu distro with lxde and setup for gameing on my box how would i go about doing that
[15:06] <DJones> !remaster | twinie_addict
[15:06] <bigjocker> SharpRain, you'll find a small space with dots at the right of the taskbar
[15:06] <dave65> gaming in linux :)  while to go yet I think
[15:06] <scunizi> SharpRain: ok
[15:06] <Gwynavere> jesus chris im getting a headache
[15:06] <dave65> Savage is cool tho
[15:07] <SharpRain> I don't see a place with dots
[15:08] <bigjocker> SharpRain, right-click at the left of the leftmost application on the taskbar
[15:08] <SharpRain> oh, I see it
[15:09] <SharpRain> I'm at preferences
[15:09] <Yellerado> ActionParsnip: Still no cigar.
[15:10] <bigjocker> SharpRain, you have grouping windows preferences in there
[15:10] <SharpRain> oh, thanks.
[15:10] <bigjocker> SharpRain, BTW .... I hate that feature ;)
[15:10] <ActionParsnip> Yellerado: thats all i know dude, could try editting the folders opera searches for plugins and either add one or put te plugin there
[15:10] <SharpRain> Lol
[15:10] <SharpRain> well
[15:10] <SharpRain> when you have a 15" CRT
[15:10] <SharpRain> you have to like it
[15:10] <FloodBot3> SharpRain: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:11] <Yellerado> ActionParsnip: I noticed I have both flashplugin-alternative.so and libflashplayer.so in the plugins dir. Maybe they're conflicting with each other?
[15:11] <dave65> that was no flood :)
[15:11] <LjL> dave65: indeed, it was the "don't use Enter as punctuation" part of it.
[15:11] <dave65> petty
[15:12] <dave65> irc rules are irc rules tho I guess
[15:12] <cfedde> we're all bozo's on this boat
[15:12] <downstar> lmao

[15:13] <jrib> trap2: Places -> Network
[15:13] <lazymanc> hi, i'm trying to get spotify working properly under wine in karmic, and I've found this site: http://www.3spoken.co.uk/2009/08/making-wine-sound-work-with-pulseaudio.html
[15:13] <grawity> trap2: Install the 'samba' package. Then right-click on the directory you want to share.
[15:14] <sipior> dave65: makes it harder for folks to follow the train of thought on a problem if it is constantly being scrolled up seven lines at a time by someone who doesn't like complete sentences :-)
[15:14] <trap2> grawity, thanks
[15:14] <grawity> trap2: Or, to browse Windows shares, Places -> Network -> Connect to Server
[15:14] <biuro> halo
[15:14] <dave65> when its busy ok

[15:15] <sjanssen> is this the proper place for 9.10 questions?
[15:15] <Pici> sjanssen: No, please use #ubuntu+1
[15:16] <grawity> sjanssen: #ubuntu+1 would be more proper.
[15:16] <edgarcm> Where I can install Lamp on UBUNTU 9.04?
[15:16] <dave65> think they have a special area for that
[15:16] <sjanssen> Pici, grawity: thanks
[15:16] <hellfire> something questions are very easy. why do not use google to search.
[15:16] <sjanssen> might wanna add that to the topic?
[15:16] <grawity> Topics have length limits, you know
[15:16] <sjanssen> okay
[15:16] <hellfire> it's a waste of time
[15:16] <sipior> grawity: still, that one would actually be pretty useful
[15:17] <twinie_addict> i want to use the new upcoming ubuntu is it posible to use old kernel and older xorg from 8,10 and have everything work right ?
[15:17] <sipior> grawity: especially this close to release...
[15:17] <LjL> more so than "jaunty 9.04 released", that's for sure
[15:17] <twinie_addict> i need the old kernel and xorg for my ati drivers
[15:18] <dave65> twinie_addict, think you will just have to wait a bit
[15:18] <n8tuser> twinie_addict -> what are you after in the new ?
[15:19] <twinie_addict> ext4 and updated apps but but the ability to have hardware exel on my ati x300 wich i have in 8.10
[15:19] <JacobT> my system also won't open the software sources :(
[15:20] <dave65> JacobT, check the url paths
[15:20] <brad_> Hi all. I'm noticing that Ubuntu's ffmpeg doesn't support x264.  Is there a package for ffmpeg that does, or am I building my own?
[15:20] <dave65> or try another server
[15:20] <haytham-med> hi all, when i create an icon shortcut for running terminal commands , irecive this error: There was an error creating the child process for this terminal
[15:21] <haytham-med> i receive*
[15:21] <rsk> brad_: building ffmpeg/x264 from subversion is the recommendation for everyone
[15:21] <haytham-med> run application in terminal
[15:21] <JacobT> it won't even open it tries to then disapears i can't get that far haha
[15:21] <jrib> brad_: if you check out the source package, there should be some options you can pass that add the support
[15:22] <jrib> brad_: the source ubuntu package that is
[15:22] <dave65> JacobT, try a fresh install if its not that important
[15:23] <JacobT> this was a fresh install i have nothing ellse installed yet :(
[15:23] <dave65> maybe things just did not go right!
[15:23] <dave65> it happens
[15:24] <Kai69> gf

[15:29] <disismt> hi all. I am trying to upgrade to Ubuntu 9.10 beta, but now when I resumed the process, I am getting error "E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.". How do I restart the whole process
[15:29] <Pici> disismt : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Karmic/9.10 support/discussion.

[15:34] <bo7amny> how can i turn the visual effects off in ubuntu remix ?
[15:35] <phix> point, click, click, point, click, click, click
[15:35] <shortlord> hi, everyone, I have a question that is not really ubuntu related, but I don't know where to ask, because I can't connect to freenode (that's the problem). I have a VPN connection here and it seems to refuse freenode...
[15:35] <sam1> How can i fin /dev file of perticular device
[15:35] <phix> shortlord: hmmm well you are here now
[15:35] <IdleOne> shortlord: you are on freenode
[15:35] <scunizi> shortlord: you're on freenode noqw
[15:37] <shortlord> but I connected with Xchat to "Ubuntu Servers", which is irc.ubuntu.com/8001. That works. But connecting to irc.freenode.net/8001 does not work
[15:37] <Pici> shortlord: irc.ubuntu.com is a cname for irc.freenode.net
[15:37] <grawity> irc.ubuntu.com == chat.freenode.net, so they both should work.
[15:38] <grawity> Try using port 6667?
[15:38] <Pici> !freenode | shortlord
[15:38] <LjL> shortlord: seems absurd, it's exactly the same hosts
[15:38] <scunizi> shortlord: try chat.freenode.net/8001
[15:38] <JazzplayerL9> question. I just updated my VIA Artigo to 9.10 beta and the VT1708/A sound card disappears when I try to adjust the sound properties in gnome.  Not a big deal except that sound also stops working once this happens.  Anyone know where I can see the logs of what happened?
[15:38] <phix> LjL: buddy!!! how's it going?
[15:38] <souler> Anyone.... how can I install wireless drivers for my laptop??? I don't know what kind of I need.
[15:38] <LjL> phix, stop stalking me ok?
[15:38] <downstar> anyone know how to decrypt a password?
[15:38] <grawity> downstar:
[15:38] <grawity> errr.
[15:38] <Pici> JazzplayerL9 : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Karmic/9.10 support/discussion.
[15:38] <grawity> downstar: You cannot decrypt /etc/shadow, if that's what you are talking about.
[15:38] <JazzplayerL9> Pici, thanks
[15:38] <maco> downstar: the inverse of how it was encrypted?
[15:39] <souler> !ops
[15:39] <Pici> shortlord: ?
[15:39] <jrib> souler: ?
[15:39] <Pici> er, souler ?
[15:39] <souler> I need some one to help me finding out what wireless drivers i have
[15:39] <souler> and how to install
[15:39] <souler> I'm ned to linux
[15:39] <souler> new*
[15:39]  * maco headdesk
[15:39] <FloodBot2> souler: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:39] <phix> LjL: <3
[15:39] <downstar> basically what i mean is for say like, a user account or something, or like windows SAM file is what has all passwords of users encrypted, it can be decrypted. is it possible on linux?
[15:39] <maco> souler: that is not a reason to call ops
[15:40] <LjL> souler: and yet you knew about the !ops command?
[15:40] <phix> LjL: How's the new Ubuntu coming along?
[15:40] <jrib> souler: only call !ops if there is an actual emergency in the channel that ops need to deal with please
[15:40] <LjL> phix: i haven't the slighest idea.
[15:40] <LjL> phix: and i'd rather stay on topic.
[15:40] <souler> LjL, some one used it yesterday when I was asking for help on other topics.
[15:40] <shortlord> it worked with chat.freenode.net/8001 thx a lot
[15:40] <phix> ah ok, you just moderate this channel hey
[15:40] <phix> LjL: Ubuntu isn't within topic?
[15:40] <LjL> phix, in other words - LEAVE ME ALONE
[15:40] <phix> ah ok
[15:40] <phix> carry on then
[15:41] <scunizi> shortlord: with irc.freenode.net the port is 6667 or something similar..
[15:41] <phix> so, who needs Ubuntu help?
[15:41] <Memphisto> i need :)
[15:41] <sipior> downstar: technically, the passwords are hashed, not encrypted. that turns out to be an important distinction. reversing a hash is not generally feasible in a reasonable amount of time (else it wouldn't be very useful)
[15:41] <sam1> How can i find /dev file of perticular device
[15:42] <Memphisto> phix, how come theres keyboard error through vnc and NOT on ubuntu pc?
[15:42] <sam1> please any one reply
[15:42] <grawity> scunizi: Freenode has a few alternate ports for those users who cannot use :6667.
[15:42] <souler> maco, then what is the reason to call them? If no one else is helping me.
[15:42] <sam1> i have Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video Capture
[15:42] <sam1> locklace:modinfo bt878 showing driver exist
[15:42] <sam1>  then which is its /dev file?
[15:42] <scunizi> grawity: understood.. the only other one I knew is 8001 on chat.freenode.net
[15:42] <downstar> sipior: well i know one of my college professors was able to decrypt/hash a sam file for me to get a username pw for a laptop i had found. im curios how to do that, and if its doable on linux.
[15:42] <sipior> downstar: password crackers rely on hashing a large number of entries, and comparing those with a password list. this is obviously not terribly efficient, hence the recommendations for selecting a good password (i.e., one that will take a cracker a long time to get to)
[15:42] <simon__> skype wont work on ubuntu 9.04 it casues my system to crash can anyone here advise me???????
[15:43] <grawity> downstar: Windows' SAM?
[15:43] <downstar> grawity: yes
[15:43] <maco> souler: when someone shows up spamming the channel or swearing or posting links to inappropriate images and needs to be banned, THAT is when ops are called
[15:43] <phix> sipior: since hashing is a one way function it would be impossible to get the original password from it.  It would be possible to find another password that hashes to the same value, although a good hashing function reduces the chances of this
[15:43] <grawity> downstar: Windows uses MD4, and there are ways to brute-force it really quickly. (Rainbow tables, using graphic cards to do the math, etc.)
[15:43] <jrib> downstar: you can't decrypt a hash, that makes no sense
[15:43] <mbeierl> how do I search apt to find the package that provides libtermcap.so.2?
[15:43] <grawity> downstar: But to reverse it is impossible. (At least now.)
[15:43] <sipior> phix: i think i just said that.
[15:44] <phix> sipior: you did, after I started typing :P
[15:44] <jrib> mbeierl: use apt-file or packages.ubuntu.com
[15:44] <Pici> mbeierl: install apt-file, run sudo apt-file update then: apt-file search libtermcap.so.2
[15:44] <maco> downstar: is called a one-way hash for a reason. you can keep trying to strings over and over til you find one that hashes the same
[15:44] <arand> scunizi: there are a few: http://freenode.net/irc_servers.shtml
[15:44] <maco> downstar: thats called password cracking
[15:44] <grawity> downstar: Most Linux distros support several hash types, and all of them use some kind of a salt, so it's a "little" harder to do that. (There are programs such as John the Ripper though.)
[15:44] <mbeierl> Pici: jrlb: thanks!
[15:44] <phix> :)
[15:45] <simon__> skype wont work on ubuntu 9.04 it casues my system to crash can anyone here advise me??????? please
[15:45] <Memphisto> phix do you know off my problem?
[15:45] <phix> Memphisto: no sorry
[15:45] <Memphisto> ok :)
[15:45] <cam_icabod_taylo> need to be able to ldap auth at sign in Ubuntu 9.04.  Any ideas
[15:45] <simon__> how wud i go about compiling it if the fersion they have on the skype site wont work
[15:46] <ikonia> simon__: skype is closed source
[15:46] <downstar> toall: i didnt mean decrypt a hash, i meant whatever it is to reverse it. (dont know the tech term) i know there are password crackers, but i mean. say theres was a dual-boot vista/ubuntu laptop. dont know pw's to either of them, but you cdboot to a linux distro, any will do. and copy the vistas sam file to a flash drive. how would you then decrypt/reverse hash or w.e its called, to get the pw you need for the useraccount?
[15:46] <grawity> downstar: So. _WHY_ do you need to do that?
[15:46] <simon__> i know but i need it cus my friends use the dam thing
[15:46] <ikonia> downstar: that makes no sense
[15:46] <ZoeyMarie> My /boot/grub/menu.lst has several entries that are seemingly the same, with the exception of the modifiers "quiet" and "splash" in them... can I delete the recurrences, or should I just comment them out?
[15:47] <simon__> they have a dynamic version what is this??
[15:47] <downstar> grawity: i dont need to, but my teacher had to do it for me. im curious how he did it :P
[15:47] <jrib> downstar: you're still not making sense but this isn't on-topic at all anyway
[15:47] <mrichman> Which is the best SOCKS5 proxy server to use?
[15:47] <ikonia> downstar: ask your teacher
[15:47] <downstar> i did, he wont tell me lol.
[15:47] <ikonia> mrichman: "socks5" is the most common one I've used (ut's called socks5) it's a little old though and not maintained as well as it was
[15:47] <grawity> downstar: There are several tools to brute-force the hashes Windows uses. (0phcrack, also some Elcomsoft thing if I remember correctly)
[15:48] <downstar> but how am i not making sense :S? tell what doesnt make sense, and ill try to reword it.
[15:48] <phix> although crypt() uses a form of DSA doesn't it?
[15:48] <mrichman> ikonia: i just need something light to put on my VPS so my wife can use it to hit Facebook from work lol
[15:48] <grawity> phix: Only if you ask it to.  (I think it defaults to SHA1 now.)
[15:48] <h1d> hello, is it possible to have multiple instance of dokuwiki to run by a single installation from an ubuntu package? 2 different wiki sites from a single installation
[15:48] <simon__> cud i try the debian version instead of the ubuntu version??
[15:48] <jrib> downstar: take it elsewhere please, this has nothing to do with ubuntu
[15:48] <grawity> downstar: But my preferred way is to _change_ the password.
[15:48] <masquerade> afik ophcrack is commonly used to crack windows hashes
[15:48] <phix> grawity: nice, I use MD5 still :S :)
[15:48] <ikonia> mrichman: don't use socks5 for that, just use a standard proxy like squid
[15:48] <downstar> jrib: actually, if i use ubuntu to get the password of windows, it has quite alot to do with ubuntu
[15:48] <grawity> phix: /etc/pam.d/common-password has the hash setting.
[15:48] <mrichman> ikonia: squid can do SOCKS5 with authentication?
[15:48] <jrib> downstar: no, it doesn't.
[15:48] <mbeierl> Urg.  Seems that libtermcap.so.2 is not provided by anyone :(
[15:49] <grawity> downstar: Not really. It does have something to do with Linux in general, but not with Ubuntu.
[15:49] <ikonia> mrichman: no, but I don't understand why you want a socks proxy rather than a http proxy for facebook
[15:49] <mrichman> ikonia: she also uses AIM, so I figured SOCKS vs. HTTP
[15:49] <phix> grawity: yup, so does /etc/pam_ldap.conf
[15:49] <cam_icabod_taylo> Can one establish a wireless connection before signin?
[15:49] <grawity> mrichman: How about using a SSH tunnel instead?
[15:49] <user01> I lost the wireless icon after uninstalling wicd, how can I restore it?
[15:50] <ikonia> mrichman: well, the one I've used the most is "socks5"
[15:50] <downstar> well even still. you guys dont have to answer, not like its required. but if someone responds, obviously it isnt minded being conversed about.
[15:50] <void_pointer> downstar you had an answer; ophcrack. I'd stop asking about it now
[15:50] <mrichman> grawity: my wife wont be able to set up ssh on her end
[15:50] <grawity> mrichman: ssh -fND 1080 your-remote-server.com, and there you have a SOCKS proxy on localhost:1080
[15:50] <phix> mrichman: sudo apt-get install ssh # ?
[15:50] <Guest99528> i have installed ubuntu 9, when i make a call on skype i can here other person voice but he cant here me what should i do
[15:50] <grawity> mrichman: apt-get install openssh-server
[15:50] <phix> Guest99528: turn your microphone on or unmute it
[15:50] <phix> grawity: ssh is a virtual package for that
[15:51] <mrichman> grawity: i run that on my server? what does she use as her proxy IP?
[15:51] <Guest99528> how i turn on my mic
[15:51] <phix> Guest99528: sudo alsamixer
[15:51] <simon__> wud i have installed 64 bit ubuntu by mistake how do i check this
[15:51] <user01> I lost the wireless connection icon after uninstalling wicd, how can I restore it?
[15:51] <phix> m
[15:51] <grawity> mrichman: 1) You install openssh-server on your server. (I think it's already installed.)
[15:52] <ZoeyMarie> My /boot/grub/menu.lst has several entries that are seemingly the same, with the exception of the modifiers "quiet" and "splash" in them... can I delete the recurrences, or should I just comment them out?
[15:52] <phix> grawity: not by default
[15:52] <grawity> phix: Well, he said "server". What server doesn't come with ssh?
[15:52] <mrichman> grawity: yes openssh-server is already running
[15:52] <phix> grawity: ubuntu
[15:52] <grawity> phix: Ubuntu Server does, AFAIK.
[15:52] <phix> ah
[15:52] <void_pointer> server has open-ssh installed by default
[15:52] <grawity> mrichman: 2) You configure a user account for your wife.
[15:53] <void_pointer> er openssh-server I meant
[15:53] <grawity> mrichman: 2) Your wife runs ssh -fND 1080 your-server-address, and then uses localhost:1080 for the proxy address.
[15:53] <arand> ZoeyMarie: Probably not, would you mind pastebinning it?
[15:53] <Doonz> hey guys is there a test that i can run to see my disk access speeds and wirte speeds
[15:53] <Guest99528> its opened alsamixer so how turn on mic
[15:53] <rsk> Doonz: use hdparm
[15:53] <ZoeyMarie> arand, sure, one sec
[15:54] <Keiya_> WHAT  THE HELL
[15:54] <Keiya_> I've done everything now, up to and including /restarting the kernel/ and I /still/ can't click in windows!?
[15:54] <mrichman> grawity: my wife won't know how to run ssh...she can only use a browser
[15:54] <Keiya_> Damnit you piece of gnome poo, work!
[15:55] <Knoxville> what is a good unix tape backup system comprable to symantec backup exec
[15:55] <downstar> Keiya: lol, what  are you trying to do? you cant click in windows? did you try /etc/init.d/gdm restart?
[15:56] <Keiya_> downstar: Yes.
[15:56] <Keiya_> I did try that
[15:56] <sipior> Knoxville: amanda used to be the standard: http://www.amanda.org. been a while, though, not sure how it stacks up anymore.
[15:56] <Keiya_> What I'm trying to do is use a widget in a window on my gnome desktop
[15:56] <Keiya_> What happens is when I click on the window, it tries to move it
[15:57] <Keiya_> So I can't use widgets in windows except via keyboard
[15:57] <arand> Keiya_: hmm, dpkg-reconfigure metacity? (compiz?)
[15:58] <Keiya_> meta... oh god... I think I figured out what happened... >_<
[15:58] <JoshuaL> does anyone know where gnome-network-properties saves it profiles?
[15:58] <ZoeyMarie> arand: http://pastebin.com/m76154df6
[15:58] <arand> Keiya_: hmm, I think you can disregard what I said, I presumed NO windows where working...
[15:59] <Keiya_> I installed sugar from a ppa, and I think it pulled an 'upgrade' to metacity with it
[15:59] <sam1> Is there someone knowing how to install a device driver
[15:59] <rsk> sam1: build the module, install it, run it.
[16:00] <downstar> Keiya: so try uninstalling the ppa, and reinstall it?
[16:00] <Keiya_> downstar: _it_?
[16:00] <Keiya_> Oh, metacity?
[16:00] <downstar> Keiya: sugar** sorry. lack of sleep :/
[16:01] <downstar> Keiya: yea jsut undo what u did, uninstall the sugar from the ppa, and then reinstall it from a different source that maybe doesnt upgrade your meta.
[16:01] <Keiya_> downstar: But that wouldn't 'downgrade' metacity :/
[16:02] <sam1> rsk:can i download module
[16:02] <downstar> Keiya: oh. =[ can you uninstall metacity?
[16:02] <rsk> wha
[16:02] <rsk> t
[16:02] <downstar> Keiya: and then reinstall it?
[16:02] <Keiya_> Hmm... I'd have to do it from a 'real' terminal, probably... but I should be able to do so.
[16:02] <hacker> hii
[16:02] <Keiya_> Unless apt has idiotproofing
[16:03] <downstar> Keiya: try that =]. sorry if my terms arent technical somewhat new to linux. :S
[16:03] <hacker> how to install yahoo messenger in ubuntu
[16:03] <hacker> ???
[16:03] <downstar> hacker: use pidgin/
[16:03] <hacker> pidgin not support webcam
[16:03] <maco> Keiya_: you can find out with "apt-cache policy metacity"
[16:04] <downstar> hacker: is there a upgrade or package you can install that does?
[16:04] <Wanderer> question on a non-JB phone.  does /bin/bash, etc exist without the jailbreak?  couldn't someone load an app that provides ssh?
[16:04] <Wanderer> bah
[16:04] <maco> Keiya_: and it is possible to say "apt-get install metacity=1.2" or whatever version you want (i think thats the syntax. check man apt-get)
[16:04] <Pici> Wanderer: You want ##iphone, not #ubuntu
[16:04] <grawity> downstar: Pidgin has never supported webcams for Yahoo. They only added XMPP audio/video in 2.6, Yahoo is coming later.
[16:04] <maco> downstar: kopete does
[16:04] <downstar> ahh, didnt know that =p.
[16:04] <Wanderer> Pici: yeah, just had the wrong window
[16:04] <sam1> rsk: how build a modulw

[16:05] <user01> how can I restore the wireless connection icon. I know is something like alt+2 and I need to type something...
[16:05] <dwarder> how can i know if my vestion of 8.10 is server version?
[16:06] <fornix> if i search something in vim, all instances of that search pattern turn yellow. How do i turn it back to normal?
[16:06] <downstar> dwarder: lsb_release -a
[16:06] <jrib> dwarder: well are you running the server kernel?
[16:06] <downstar> fornix: it only turns yellow cause thats what your searching, it doesnt stay like that.
[16:07] <hacker> i use sudo apt-get check but nothing is display
[16:07] <fornix> downstar, after that, when i go back to insert mode for editing, it stays yellow :(
[16:07] <user01> how can I restore the wireless connection icon?. I know is something like alt+F2 and I need to type something...
[16:07] <dwarder> downstar: http://pastebin.com/m139cc931
[16:08] <BlackFate> user01, killall gnome-panel
[16:08] <jrib> user01: nm-applet...
[16:08] <downstar> fornix: do you have a search box at the bottom that still displays what you were searching for?
[16:08] <user01> BlackFate, thanks
[16:08] <arand> ZoeyMarie: Well, you have three versions of the kernel there, and two entries for each version, which i normal (although the second entry (for each one) usually contains the "single" parameter, and "(Recovery Mode)" in their title; so that's a bit strange). If you do want to remove them I'd recommend uninstalling the old kernel packages, which will automatically update that file and remove the old entries...
[16:08] <dwarder> downstar: so it is not server version, right?
[16:08] <sam1> how find device node of keyboard
[16:08] <fornix> downstar, no. bottom says insert. i am using vim. not gvim to get a box.
[16:08] <erUSUL> sam1: /dev/input/*

[16:09] <user01> jrib, but do you know what is the name of the applet?
[16:09] <jrib> user01: nm-applet...
[16:09] <jrib> it's something you run
[16:09] <dotblankalt> hey anyone running 9.04 on an asus laptop
[16:09] <fornix> downstar, as a workaround, i search for some gibberish text like lkjsdlkjslkdjfklj and it then says no pattern found and all my previous searched items are restored back to normal :) I bet there has to be a cleaner way
[16:10] <dwarder> how can i know if my vestion of 8.10 is server version?
[16:10] <jrib> dwarder: did you try what I told you before?
[16:10] <dwarder> jrib: how can i know?
[16:10] <kurvenhexer_m> heeeEEElllllllOOOooo  :-)  guys
[16:10] <erUSUL> dwarder: are you running the server version ? do you have gui (none is installed by defaut with the server CD )
[16:10] <downstar> aha, im not sure honestly.
[16:10] <jrib> dwarder: well are you running the server kernel?
[16:10] <ZoeyMarie> arand, how can I remove the old kernals? is that through synaptic?
[16:10] <user01> BlackFate, it didnt work. The icon dissapeared after I uninstalled wicd. Any idea on how to restore it?
[16:11] <jrib> dwarder: why do you want the answer to this question anyway?
[16:11] <dwarder> jrib: how can i know that i'm runing server kernel?
[16:11] <erUSUL> dwarder: s/server version/server kernel version/

[16:17] <hey`> hi, after an update, the screen resolution have changed, to 800 x 600, it's just look pretty much bigger than it was in my laptop.
[16:17] <dwarder> i guess
[16:17] <ikonia> lantjie: that would be samba that does that, it's quite a complex system, depending on what backend/how many users you want to auth
[16:17] <hey`> I don't know how to set it back, plus, it's diffcult to access the system configuration.
[16:17] <erUSUL> hey`: what graphic card do you have ?
[16:17] <lantjie> ikonia: oke thanx
[16:17] <yusa> 8800gtx
[16:18] <hey`> nvidia geforce 7000 erusul
[16:18] <ibrahim76> IKONIA I have latest Ubuntu version and downloaded Xchat client but the interface looks not like Xchat is suppose to look
[16:18] <yusa> :P
[16:18] <erUSUL> hey`: how did you installed the drivers for it ?
[16:18] <hey`> it was an updage I've just made, it was neat just before.
[16:18] <grawity> ibrahim76: Are you sure it's xchat, and not xchat-gnome?
[16:18] <lantjie> ikonia: i will try and see what i can get out of it
[16:18] <ikonia> ibrahim76: what version of ubuntu , what version of xchat, where did you get xchat
[16:18] <lantjie> thanx guys
[16:18] <hey`> erusul, well through the automatic updates.
[16:18] <ikonia> lantjie: shout if you have specific questions
[16:18] <hey`> I have the habit to install everything that comes in.
[16:19] <ivonnemoy> How do I download the ISO?
[16:19] <erUSUL> hey`: ?? via System>Admin>hardware drivers ? or used envyng ? or the run file from nvidia.com ?
[16:19] <ikonia> !iso | ivonnemoy
[16:19] <arand> ZoeyMarie: if you want to remove the realtime kernel, you can do a search for "-rt" and look at all packages there that has "linux" in their name AND ends with -rt
[16:19] <ibrahim76> Ikonia: I get the Xchat client from my ubuntu System-Adminstration-Synaptic package manager
[16:19] <ikonia> ibrahim76: that's a good start, what version of ubuntu ?
[16:19] <Keiya__> That... was dumb.
[16:19] <hey`> eurusul, I didn't do anything, but installing the software updates ubuntu regularly gives.
[16:19] <Keiya__> the gnome network applet was handling my network
[16:20] <Keiya__> When that was removed... >_>
[16:20] <hey`> before this last update, I ended up like this.
[16:20] <ttreake> is there a way to link the top and bottom panels?
[16:20] <ttreake> i mean
[16:20] <ttreake> is there a way to merge the top and bottom panels?
[16:20] <ibrahim76> Ikonia: I have Karma Koala version the 9.10 version
[16:20] <hey`> the problem is everything is so big I can't access the "system" button, to try to change to another resolution.
[16:21] <Keiya__> I can fix it, I just need to wait for a chance to get to my dorm room where I have an ethernet cable :P
[16:21] <hey`> is there a way to change the screen resolution through the terminal?
[16:21] <erUSUL> hey`: i'm asking how you installed the drivers of you nvida driver originaly when you first installed the system
[16:21] <ikonia> ibrahim76: ok, well first of all, use #ubuntu+1 for 9.10 discussion, and secondly keep in mind that 9.10 is still a beta OS and it contains new packages, the look may have changed fro what you expect
[16:21] <ikonia> hey`: xrandr
[16:21] <arand> !download | ivonnemoy
[16:21] <erUSUL> nvidia card*
[16:21] <hey`> erusul I did'nt do the first installation :(
[16:21] <ttreake> I would like to merge the top and bottom panels so I have more room on my screen. How do you do this?
[16:22] <ibrahim76> Ikonia: okej thanks :)
[16:22] <arand> !karmic | ibrahim76
[16:22] <Zzeiss> How do I set up automounting of things like thumb drives?
[16:22] <erUSUL> hey`: becouse if you used the run from nvidia or envyng and there was a kernel upgrade you wil have to reinstall the drivers
[16:22] <yusa> is it possible to install new version of ubuntu (when its out) without destorying boot management ?
[16:22] <arand> oh, sorry.
[16:22] <hey`> erusul I think it was a kernel upgrade yes.
[16:22] <erUSUL> Zzeiss: should work out of the box
[16:22] <ZykoticK9> ttreake, you could try and move the items off of one panel and onto the other - then delete the empty panel (hope you have lots of room)
[16:22] <hey`> ouch.... I don't know how to reinstall the drivers erusul.
[16:23] <erUSUL> hey`: you will have to find out how th drivers where installed in the first place
[16:23] <JacobT> hey room how do i install a logitech webcam?
[16:23] <ivonnemoy> There isn't a 64 bit Intel desktop CD?
[16:23] <hey`> erusul, would it be a bad idea, if I just try to change the screen resolution?
[16:23] <erUSUL> !webcam | JacobT
[16:24] <erUSUL> hey`: not bad per se; but may not help
[16:24] <lantjie> quit
[16:24] <arand> yusa: yes should be, you can specify where to install grub2 and then chainload it from current grub version...
[16:24] <ZykoticK9> ivonnemoy, AMD64 will work with Intel 64 bit as well
[16:24] <erUSUL> ivonnemoy: yes there is; the amd64 version works on inel cpu's
[16:24] <erUSUL> intel*
[16:24] <hey`> ikonia, would you give me an example of "xandr"?
[16:24] <ivonnemoy> Great, thanks.
[16:25] <Maximo> when is next release of "ubuntu"?
[16:25] <Maximo> thanks
[16:25] <Ghoul> 30th oct
[16:25] <erUSUL> Maximo: 29th this month
[16:25] <JoshuaL> ocotober 29th iirc maxie_
[16:25] <hey`> xrandr --> to something less bigger than 800 x 600
[16:25] <Maximo> okay thanks
[16:25] <JoshuaL> Maximo*
[16:25] <arand> ivonnemoy: intel uses the amd64 architecture for it's 64bit processors
[16:25] <dimitri> could sbd update my ubuntu to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    my old version is 5.2  T.Y!
[16:25] <roffe> Why don't they write that the 64-bit version is for intel as well?
[16:25] <ikonia> hey`: there are examples in man xrandr at the bottom
[16:25] <mee_> Can I use Project Neon in *Ubuntu* Intrepid (8.10)? I have tried PPA but after updating apt there is no nightly package available!
[16:25] <ikonia> roffe: 64bit works on intel or amd
[16:25] <hey`> thanks ikonia
[16:25] <Ghoul> um 29th yey
[16:26] <dwarder> i have an vds ubuntu 8.10, and i have 15 gb limit, is it better to compile everything (AMP from LAMP) localy and then install it on vds?
[16:26] <ivonnemoy> Thanks, you're all surprisingly helpful so far.
[16:26] <roffe> ikonia, yes, I know, but I just wonder why they only mention AMD when you're downloading it?
[16:26] <erUSUL> roffe: kernel devs are giving credit where credit is due... amd designed the x86_64 architecture
[16:26] <yusa> anything noticable feature?
[16:26] <dwarder> to keep more free space
[16:27] <ab2qik> pls help, config error on jaunty.
[16:27] <ab2qik> any ideas anyone?
[16:27] <vds> dwarder: do you mind using a different acronym than vds :)
[16:27] <erUSUL> !details | ab2qik
[16:27] <roffe> erUSUL, Ah, that makes sense. Thanks. Do Intel have to pay AMD to us it, like AMD had to pay intel to use x86?
[16:27] <dwarder> vds: :) vps is ok
[16:27] <dwarder> i guess
[16:27] <dwarder> lol
[16:27] <wasabi_> So I can't seem to remove any of the bits of X I don't need. Looksl ike kbd and mouse keep ALL of the video drivers installed
[16:27] <wasabi_> For some reason.
[16:27] <vds> dwarder: thx! :)
[16:28] <Zzeiss> Ersul: no joy.  I plug it in, and wait.  And wait.  And wait.  No automount.  Therefore, I broke it somehow.  Is there any setup capability?
[16:28] <dwarder> anyone with vps name here ?
[16:28] <dwarder> :)
[16:28] <erUSUL> roffe: i do not think they pay anything... they just crosslicense all patent stuff
[16:28] <ab2qik> gconf-sanity-check-2 status 256
[16:28] <grawity> dwarder: What do you mean by "vps name"?
[16:28] <erUSUL> Zzeiss: happens with all the usb disks you tried ?
[16:28] <Zzeiss> No, wait.  Now _two_ of them show up.
[16:28] <Zzeiss> erUSUL: only have one handy.  :-(
[16:29] <erUSUL> Zzeiss: maybe hald is not running for some reason ?
[16:29] <erUSUL> Zzeiss: ps ax | grep hald
[16:29] <hey`> xrandr does not work, because it will only change to a group of screen resolutions, where the correct one I need is not there.
[16:29] <hey`> erusul, man, I'm going crazy, how do I get those drivers?
[16:30] <hey`> and install.
[16:30] <Zzeiss> erUSUL: urp.   When logging in a dialog box appears. It says, "Problem with configuration server. /usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2. excited with status 256"
[16:31] <ZykoticK9> hey`, didn't you say you had an nvidia?  couldn't you just "sudo apt-get install nvidia-180-kernel-source"?
[16:32] <bOiNk> hi all
[16:32] <erUSUL> Zzeiss: hey` problem is we do not know how the drivers where installed in the first place and we go around intalling ramdom stuff we can mess things more than they are now
[16:32] <hey`> guys, I can use this command "nvidia-settings" and it says I'm not using nvdia X driver
[16:33] <bOiNk> is there any1 familiar with installing php-extensions via PECL ? (unfortunately the #php chan is flooded atm)
[16:33] <occy> http://drbl.sourceforge.net/faq/fine-print.php?path=./2_System/42_manually_ntfsclone.faq#42_manually_ntfsclone.faq  I'm trying to run this command:  cat /home/partimag/YOURIMAGE/hda1.ntfs-img.* | gzip -d -c | ntfsclone --restore-image -o /dev/hda2 -    and it says "Unrecognized option --restore-image"
[16:33] <hey`> erusul, is there a way to undone the last software update???
[16:33] <hey`> jeez
[16:33] <erUSUL> hey`: yes; as i said we need to know how you (or whoever did it) installed the nvidia drivers
[16:33] <Matir`> Does anyone know of a way to make OpenSSH require BOTH a password and a pub/priv keypair for login?
[16:34] <erUSUL> ab2qik: sorry never encounter that error before... have you googled it ?
[16:34] <ab2qik> erUSUL, i made a change by adding an lv device to /tmp
[16:34] <erUSUL> Matir`: use a pub/priv keypair with passphrase
[16:34] <grawity> Matir`: I don't think OpenSSH can do that. (I do know that the SSH protocol allows it, but sshd hackage/recompiling will probably be required.)
[16:34] <BassKozz> How can I output a webpage to the terminal? (i.e. "cat http://google.com"
[16:34] <grawity> BassKozz: curl http://google.com
[16:34] <Matir`> erUSUL: that doesn't pass the passphrase on to PAM
[16:34] <Matir`> grawity:
[16:34] <grawity> BassKozz: Or wget -qO-
[16:34] <ab2qik> erUSUL, yes did google it. It said chmod 1777 /tmp will fix it
[16:34] <Matir`> grawity: that's a shame, but thanks
[16:35] <erUSUL> BassKozz: wget www.google.com -O -
[16:35] <grawity> Matir`: Why do you need that, anyway?
[16:35] <erUSUL> ab2qik: tried ?
[16:35] <erUSUL> Matir`: no
[16:35] <ab2qik> erUSUL, before i do that i thought i could get 2nd opinion here
[16:35] <BassKozz> grawity: Thanks
[16:35] <BassKozz> erUSUL: Thanks
[16:35] <Matir`> grawity: to decrypt my home dir, PAM needs the password
[16:35] <hey`> look what it says erusul, when I do a "nvidia-settings": You do not appear to be using the nvidia X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root) and restart the X server.
[16:35] <grawity> Matir`: Then just use password auth instead of pubkey?
[16:35] <silv3r_m00n> my ubuntu(8.04) synaptic hasn't ff 3.5  .... how can I upgrade ?
[16:36] <sebsebseb> !ff35 |  silv3r_m00n
[16:36] <erUSUL> hey`: we will have more info if you pastebin the file i asked to
[16:36] <ab2qik> erUSUL, shouldnt chmod have 3 numbers like 777. So why would t
[16:36] <hey`> ok I'm going to do that.
[16:36] <hey`> pastebin
[16:36] <ab2qik> erUSUL, so why is there a 4th number in chmod 1777 used
[16:36] <arand> occy:  I see nothing wrong with that...
[16:36] <grawity> ab2qik: Technically, it is a single big number. (In octal.) 777 would be equal to 0777.
[16:36] <erUSUL> hey`: i asked you two pices of info you provided none. i still do not know how the driver was installed nor i could see the X server error log... i can not help without info
[16:37] <erUSUL> ab2qik: is the sticky bit iirc
[16:37] <occy> arand: aside from the unrecognized option --restore-image
[16:37] <mee_> Can I use Project Neon in *Ubuntu* Intrepid (8.10)? I have tried PPA but after updating apt there is no nightly package available!
[16:38] <hey`> erusul, sorry I know I'm just bein a troll. But would you send me the location of the file again? I just stupidily cleared the screen.
[16:38] <sebsebseb> mee_: ppa's aren't nightlies
[16:38] <erUSUL> hey`: install pastebinit and paste /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[16:38] <erUSUL> !pastebin | hey`
[16:38] <hey`> thanks
[16:38] <erUSUL> !pastebinit | hey`
[16:38] <grawity> ab2qik: Run Ubuntu calculator, convert 1777 from Octal to Binary, and you should understand.
[16:38] <ivonnemoy> I have Windows XP and I'm trying to install the 9.04 version of Ubuntu, however, when I try to intall, an error reads: Cannot download the metalink and therefore the iso.
[16:39] <arand> occy: that also looks like it should work...
[16:39] <grawity> ivonnemoy: It sounds like you're trying to install it through Wubi?
[16:39] <occy> arand: I don't have ntfsclone I don't think is that a probgra?
[16:39] <ivonnemoy> Yes.
[16:39] <occy> program
[16:39] <sebsebseb> ivonnemoy: Wubi can go bad on people
[16:39] <grawity> ivonnemoy: May I suggest just installing it to a separate partition? (The latest release makes it very easy.)
[16:40] <erUSUL> occy: it comes in the ntfs-progs package
[16:40] <occy> heh yeah I think tha'ts what I was missing
[16:40] <mee_> sebsebseb: believe KDE nightly builds are.
[16:40] <ivonnemoy> grawity: I've read that all I have to do is put the iso in the same dir as wubi. How would I do that first before trying to install the latest version?
[16:40] <occy> hmm
[16:40] <arand> occy: does "ntfsclone --help" work?
[16:40] <sebsebseb> mee_: oh KDE something ok uhmm try #kubuntu then,  this channel is mainly for  Ubuntu/Gnome
[16:41] <grawity> sebsebseb: But not necessarily.
[16:41] <lispy> I'm using jaunty and I've set my keyboard layout to dvorak.  It keeps randomly switching back to qwerty.  Any ideas?
[16:41] <grawity> ivonnemoy: Installing Ubuntu through Wubi is not very recommended - it sometimes leads to unstable systems. Still, you need to go to Ubuntu's website, and download the .iso.
[16:41] <sebsebseb> grawity: yep sometimes Xubuntu support might be done in here for example
[16:41] <Quoexl_Xoenig> good morning, anyone know how to enable the touchscreen on a fujitsu lifebook in 9.04
[16:41] <arand> cat --restore-image
[16:42] <ivonnemoy> Okay, then I'll take your earlier advice and download Koala then?
[16:42] <grawity> ivonnemoy: Once you download it, either burn it to a CD and install "the right way", OR put it to the same folder as wubi.exe
[16:42] <sebsebseb> grawity: you adviced ivonnemoy  to download Karmic???  before it's even released
[16:42] <grawity> sebsebseb: I didn't -_-
[16:43] <hackeron> hey, how do I stop dhcpd giving an address to a specific hardware address?
[16:43] <ivonnemoy> I guessed Koala would be the latest version? No?
[16:43] <sebsebseb> ivonnemoy: Karmic Kaola  is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, and the final isn't released yet that will be October 29th
[16:43] <grawity> ivonnemoy: Karmic Koala is the latest, but it hasn't been released yet. (It will be this month.)
[16:43] <genii> ivonnemoy: Jaunty is the latest stable version
[16:43] <Quoexl_Xoenig> stable like charles manson
[16:44] <ivonnemoy> Okay, so, my question is, how do I download Jaunty on a separate partition without using Wubi?
[16:44] <hey`> erusul: http://paste.ubuntu.com/287066/
[16:44] <arand> occy: I think you might want to skip the -o parameter there, or possibly use -O (probably unnecessary)
[16:44] <sebsebseb> ivonnemoy: Download the ISO and install it using the Live CD
[16:44] <grawity> ivonnemoy: Download the .iso, burn to a CD (using ImgBurn or Nero or whatever), boot from the CD, choose "install", then pick the "side by side" option.
[16:45] <Quoexl_Xoenig> poweriso works nicely for that
[16:45] <wasabi_> So Ubuntu can't really be fit into a 512MB disk anymore, with GDM.
[16:45] <wasabi_> That's a bummer.
[16:45] <ivonnemoy> Can I just mount the image instead using a free program? (no cds :( )
[16:45] <Quoexl_Xoenig> ivonnemoy: got a flash drive?
[16:45] <arand> wasabi_: When did it ever fit 512?
[16:45] <wasabi_> Long time ago. ;)
[16:45] <sebsebseb> !install |  ivonnemoy
[16:46] <wasabi_> At least hardy.
[16:46] <nat2610_> hey I just reinatelled ubuntu, I installed pidgin but the thing I can't understand is that instead of going into the top right of the screen when I click on the close button, it really quit the application, I'm almost sure before I reinstalled it, that not do that
[16:46] <epaphus> Hey guys, where can I get a list of FTP clients available to be installed through apt-get ?
[16:46] <ivonnemoy> I'm using a flashdrive.
[16:46] <wasabi_> I have a box here which I've been using as a in ceiling projector. Basically it's just all installed on a 512CF disk
[16:46] <nat2610_> how can I get back the the previous behaviour ?
[16:46] <sebsebseb> ivonnemoy: Ubuntu can be installed from one, but also run from one
[16:46] <grawity> nat2610_: Open Pidgin's settings, and look for "Show notification icon" option.
[16:46] <arand> !liveusb | ivonnemoy
[16:46] <sebsebseb> !usb |  ivonnemoy
[16:46] <wasabi_> basically it is little more than gdm, plus a login script that connects to rdesktop.
[16:46] <wasabi_> It's all too big now
[16:46] <wasabi_> Goes about 90MB over. =(
[16:47] <grawity> wasabi_: For such simple uses, get an equally simple distro.
[16:47] <wasabi_> A properly built ubuntu would be equally simple.
[16:47] <arand> wasabi_: get tinycore ;)
[16:47] <Guest5811> on NVidia x server after savin configuration it write me down Unable to remove old X config backup file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'.  Is there any tip how should i fix it and don't have to set configuration every boot?
[16:47] <wasabi_> Since everything would be in packages that could be removed. ;)
[16:47] <nat2610_> grawity, found it thanks ...
[16:48] <hey`> erUSUL: http://paste.ubuntu.com/287066/
[16:48] <Quoexl_Xoenig_> get DSL wasabi
[16:48] <arand> wasabi_: ubuntu isn't really built for that purpose though...
[16:48] <grawity> wasabi_: Ubuntu wasn't designed to be tiny.
[16:48] <Quoexl_Xoenig_> damn small linux was
[16:49] <arand> wasabi_: there's always ubuntu-minimal..
[16:49] <wasabi_> GDM brings in too much now, as does X.
[16:49] <Quoexl_Xoenig_> ubuntu-minimal and fluxbox
[16:49] <wasabi_> It's no big deal, I'll just go grab a slightly larger CF disk
[16:49] <wasabi_> Was just a bit disappointed.
[16:49] <grawity> Do you _need_ GDM?
[16:49] <Quoexl_Xoenig_> nope use xdm
[16:49] <wasabi_> grawity, the remote X stuff is useful.
[16:50] <canthus13> azzsxklo'""'
[16:50] <roffe> Is there a good reason for why disks are not mounted automatically on startup?
[16:50] <wasabi_> is there a good reason they shoudl be?
[16:51] <grawity> roffe: On startup or on login?
[16:51] <yusa> is it possible to format NTFS in ubuntu ?
[16:51] <yusa> if yes how, where from ?
[16:51] <roffe> login
[16:51] <grawity> yusa: mkfs.ntfs -- I think it's in the ntfsprogs package.
[16:51] <yusa> grawity: where is that? command line ?
[16:51] <tyler_d> anyone an svn expert?.
[16:52] <sphenxes01> I have reinstalled my webmin. now I can't start my cron script. i have forget the command. was it: sh /bin/bash/ /path/to/my/script? that is not working right now. any suggestions?

[16:53] <yusa> The program 'apt' can be found in the following packages:
[16:53] <yusa>  * openjdk-6-jdk
[16:53] <FloodBot1> yusa: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:53] <grawity> yusa: It's apt-get.
[16:53] <yusa> yeah its not working
[16:53] <grawity> yusa: To install ntfsprogs, type: sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs
[16:54] <grawity> sphenxes01: Just "/path/to/your/script" -- and make sure it is marked as executable (chmod +x), and has this line at the beginning: #!/bin/bash

[16:55] <yusa> what is that exactly ?
[16:56] <yusa> I was looking only to format external HDD as NTFS

[16:56] <jacquesdupontd> hi
[16:56] <grawity> yusa: And so I told, install ntfsprogs and use the mkfs.ntfs program.
[16:56] <yusa> ok did it, is there any graphical prog for this ?
[16:56] <grawity> yusa: gparted.
[16:57] <yusa> then why I'm working on this ? :P
[16:58] <grawity> yusa: Because gparted requires mkfs.ntfs.
[16:58] <yusa> ow
[16:58] <Quoexl_Xoenig_> dunno
[16:58] <yusa> lets learn how is this working as well
[16:58] <jacquesdupontd> i'm watching movies directly with vlc without downloading it by just simply using the command "vlc http://file.avi/" and it's working pretty well but sometimes its freezing, my download speed is over 300 ko/s so really sufficient to download a movie of 1h30, do someone know a bit vlc and could help me with a better command ? also i have this error when it freeze in the terminal : [00000414] avcodec decoder error: more than 5 s
[16:58] <jacquesdupontd> econds of late video -> dropping frame (computer too slow ?)
[16:58] <jetrii> I updated one of my systems to 9.10 today to test it out but I seem to be having an issue with gnome. Whenever I log on, my taskbar is filled with endless file manager tasks. I can't actually click them, they just get smaller and smaller. Has anyone experienced this?
[16:59] <yusa> mkntfs /dev/sda1 -f  ?
[16:59] <alod> All I want is 1600x1200 @ 65Hz on the live CD... http://pastebin.com/m6215dd58
[17:00] <grawity> yusa: If you know what NTFS is, then I would expect you to figure out the manpage of mkfs.ntfs
[17:00] <jacquesdupontd> anybody ? i think it must be simple it must have a link with the buffer or something

[17:04] <ttreake> are there any shortcut keys to terminal
[17:04] <grawity> ttreake: For what exactly?
[17:04] <ttreake> to start terminal, grawity
[17:06] <Slart> moonlite: try running "tail -f /var/log/syslog" in a terminal, disconnect the drive and reconnect it.. pastebin the new output in the terminal to the pastebin and give us the url
[17:06] <rawpure> Hey, im looking for someone to help me with themes. Thanks
[17:06] <moonlite> Slart: thx!
[17:06] <Slart> moonlite: I think that will give you some kind of info about what kind of usb connection it uses
[17:07] <warddr> Hello, is there a linux-replacement voor Dreamweaver? I only need the code-editor but I need the template part to change the menu of all pages at the same time
[17:07] <Slart> !pastebin | moonlite
[17:07] <erUSUL> !html | warddr
[17:07] <Slart> warddr: I don't think there is anything with quite the same features.. but there are good editors available
[17:07] <sebsebseb> warddr: Not sure about the latest version or the latest versions, but should be able to Wine  Dreamweaver pretty well
[17:07] <grawity> warddr: Considered using PHP, for example, or server-side includes for that?
[17:08] <warddr> erUSUL, html is cool for me, but I need the template part to change the menu at all static pages at the same time.
[17:08] <souler> Can anyone help me fix my microphone, and wireless????????????????+
[17:08] <warddr> we're not allowed to use php
[17:09] <Doc_Lappy1> say anybody know about sockets and listening addresses for telnet plus know c that could look over a short script and tell me how to undo my bind:address on ubuntu
[17:09] <Doc_Lappy1> http://pastebin.ca/1598591 is the script I'm using just a script to greet people
[17:09] <moonlite> Slart: http://paste.ubuntu.com/287095/
[17:10] <moonlite> it says full speed. That would be 12mbit right? The USB 1.1 standard. (I read on wikipedia just a while ago)
[17:10] <grawity> Doc_Lappy1: First, don't you need a space after #include ?
[17:10] <Slart> moonlite: ok, it says "full speed usb device".. there's also "high speed usb device".. I can never remember which is which though.. perhaps wikipedia knows
[17:11] <moonlite> just checked
[17:11] <moonlite> hi speed is 480 mbit
[17:11] <voicu> Doc_Lappy1:try close(sockfd) ? i'm new to sockets myself
[17:11] <erUSUL> warddr: do not know for sure but maybe Bluefish, Quanta+, Screem can do it
[17:11] <Doonz> hey guys when i log into my moms ubuntu server and try to use vi my keyboard doesnt act as its supposed to is there a config file i need to edit on the ssh terminal?
[17:11] <Slart> moonlite: ok, so you're using usb 1 then..
[17:11] <moonlite> hm ok so it onl gets USB 1.1. That's bad.
[17:11] <ttreake> Is there to put "Force a Misbehaving Application to quit" in my gnome menu?
[17:11] <erUSUL> warddr: also take a look at aptana studio (not in the repos)
[17:11] <grawity> Doonz: 'vi' doesn't support arrow keys. (And never did.)
[17:12] <Slart> ttreake: make a menu shortcut to "xkill"
[17:12] <Doc_Lappy1> where is the include space, can you give me a line?
[17:12] <moonlite> I'm going to test the liveCD for Karmic now and hope that it is solved there
[17:12] <ZykoticK9> Doonz install "vim" - the default vi is terrible regarding arrow keys etc.
[17:12] <Doc_Lappy1> I can't find it, if that's a problem in it
[17:12] <Slart> ttreake: that will let you click on something you want to kill
[17:12] <grawity> ZykoticK9, Doonz: vi has never supported arrow keys, and Wikipedia has a great explanation why.
[17:12] <ZykoticK9> grawity, vim does
[17:13] <grawity> ZykoticK9: I know vim does. But vi doesn't, and Doonz was using vi.
[17:13] <ZykoticK9> grawity, that's why I suggested vim
[17:13] <ttreake> Slart, are you sure its not sudo xkill?
[17:14] <Slart> ttreake: just xkill should work for anything you start as a user..
[17:14] <erUSUL> ttreake: or add the xkill applet to one of your panels
[17:14] <Slart> ttreake: there isn't a lot to click on that runs as root
[17:14] <ttreake> Slart, what if I start the application as root?
[17:15] <sebsebseb> invoker_: hmm at doing such good support in pm with you :)
[17:15] <ttreake> I'm trying to make the most space on my panel as possible
[17:15] <sebsebseb> invoker_: wrong one
[17:15] <Slart> ttreake: or perhaps I should say.. there SHOULDN'T be a lot of stuff running as root that you could click on..
[17:15] <Doc_Lappy1> k thanks voicu but don't know where to put that close(sockfd) ?     im' a noob to c sorry, I've only made simple hello programmes
[17:15] <sebsebseb> ivonnemoy: see above :)
[17:15] <ttreake> whats the keyboard shortcut for terminal?
[17:15] <rawpure> alt f2 i think
[17:15] <voicu> Doc_Lappy1: at the point where the program exits, before 'return 0' for example
[17:16] <Slart> ttreake: software requiring root privileges usually does something important.. I wouldn't go killing them without doing some serious thinking first
[17:16] <rawpure> anyone know how i can get my windows looking like http://www.imgx.org/public/view/full/4580
[17:16] <Slart> ttreake: is there anything special you're looking to kill
[17:16] <ttreake> alt f2 brings up a "Run An Application"
[17:16] <Doc_Lappy1> k thanks
[17:17] <ivonnemoy> sebsebseb is very helpful! much more inclined to technical problem solving that I would have first assumed.
[17:17] <ttreake> Slart, no, just stuff crashes all the time.

[17:29] <rsk> Guest73669: what does that give?
[17:29] <mee_> rsk: they (binaries or libraries, so files and ...) will be overwritten during upgrade (installing other versions of deb files), is it true?
[17:30] <Guest73669> rsk it's not working...
[17:30] <rsk> Guest73669: what is the output?
[17:30] <Guest73669> even alt + f1 is not working
[17:30] <Guest73669> nothing
[17:30] <SwampThing> mee_: I think it depends

[17:31] <Guest73669> ya i removed some programs
[17:31] <mee_> SwampThing: is there a secure way to deal with this (for example some app that checks for this type of installed libs during upgrade)?
[17:32] <SwampThing> mee_: you're question is beyond my ability at the present time
[17:32] <mee_> SwampThing: thanks
[17:32] <arand> Guest73669: !Which ones?
[17:32] <mee_> If I compile and install some libraries from source code in my Ubuntu would be any problems later If I upgrade my Ubuntu to it's next release?

[17:32] <Guest73669> some games ,edubunu progs, etc

[17:33] <Slart> Idioteque: pastebin the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[17:33] <Guest73669> might be .. any solution to it?
[17:33] <rsk> vecKt: try mplayer file
[17:33] <Slart> !pastebin | Idioteque
[17:33] <rsk> Guest73669: install the programs you deleted should fix it
[17:34] <vecKt> rsk: i install "Player Movie Player" ?
[17:34] <SwampThing> vecKt, rsk: "try mplayer filename" in a terminal
[17:34] <rsk> mee_: as i said, it could be a problem and there could not be.
[17:34] <rsk> vecKt: please no rhetorical questions
[17:34] <Guest73669> but i can't access synaptic.... is der any way to access it???
[17:34] <mee_> rsk: as i asked, is there a secure way to deal with this (for example some app that checks for this type of installed libs during upgrade)?

[17:34] <rsk> mee_: no there isn't

[17:35] <rsk> emyrtlee: go away
[17:35] <gribouille> did someone try karmic beta ?
[17:35] <SwampThing> mee_: when you say "secure" you mean a way to maintain stability throughout updates?
[17:35] <leaf-sheep> !karmic | gribouille
[17:35] <rsk> gribouille: #ubuntu+1
[17:35] <arand> !checkinstall | mee_
[17:35] <mee_> rsk: and what do you do in these conditions? just remember to "make remove" the source version before upgrading?
[17:36] <MrEgg964> I have a problem with a NX for Windows client which doesn't map the correct keyboard when connected to FreeNX Server (Jaunty). Anybody as any idea as to what to do? Thanks
[17:36] <rsk> mee_: as long as the app isn't used by the base system you don't have to worry more than the app itself stops working
[17:36] <mee_> rsk: libraries?!
[17:36] <rsk> what?
[17:37] <SwampThing> mee_: perhaps you should describe the libraries you are recompiling
[17:37] <rsk> please no rhetorical questions mee_
[17:37] <mee_> rsk: libraries can be used in many other apps
[17:37] <rsk> yes
[17:37] <SwampThing> mee_: correction, not describe, but indicate which libraries

[17:37] <piranha2> hi. how do you enable which runlevels a service runs in using the command line in ubuntu? i just got a brand new virtual server, running ubuntu
[17:38] <piranha2> dunno how to do it from the commmand line though
[17:38] <rsk> !runlevel | piranha2
[17:39] <mee_> arand: I didn't know that check install adds the source version as a deb one. have you tested it? does it work in upgrading?
[17:39] <ZykoticK9> piranha2, look into the update-rc.d command
[17:39] <piranha2> ta ubottu , ZykoticK9
[17:39] <Richlv> http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/18331/ - "Resolution of unknown monitors is only 800x600 Pixels". how can this be forced to a bigger resolution ?
[17:39] <arand> mee_: never used it, have no idea, just know that the toll exists

[17:39] <arand> mee_: *tool
[17:40] <vecKt> ok, mplayers plays mpegs, but i want to use totem and rythmbox to play them mpegs and mp3's. but they wont. is there a way to fix this?
[17:40] <SwampThing> Richlv: entering the monitor information in /etc/X11/xorg.conf might work
[17:40] <Slart> Idioteque: ok, I'll have a look
[17:40] <rsk> mee_: you can always, not upgrade. and dont worry about it
[17:40] <superjoe> is there a faster mirror than archive.ubuntu.us?
[17:40] <Idioteque> Slart, thanks... also i have both the VGA and DVI connected now... and VGA flickers and its at 60Hz only... :S
[17:41] <superjoe> us.archive.ubuntu.com I mean
[17:41] <SwampThing> vecKt: is the music you are trying to play have Digital Rights Management (DRM)?
[17:41] <Richlv> SwampThing, wouldn't xorg.conf be overwritten upon upgrading/patching xorg ?
[17:41] <rsk> superjoe: there is an app that cheks for the fastest mirror can't remember it's name thou, it's in synaptic. look for that.
[17:41] <SwampThing> Richlv: not necessarily
[17:41] <mee_> rsk: do you suggest not upgrading at all?
[17:42] <vecKt> SwampThing: don't know, but it doesn't play my collection of mp3s i have for many years, and my previous installation of ubuntu had no problems playing it
[17:42] <Richlv> SwampThing, i suspect that's exactly what happened to the user who has this problem - after patching it's stuck at 800x600 max ;)
[17:42] <rsk> mee_: depends if you want the upgrades or not. and if you want them more than risking breaking a library.
[17:42] <SwampThing> vecKt: I know for certain that DRM music I downloaded from Itunes doesn't work in RhythmBox
[17:42] <netbook> What terminal IM clients do people recommend?
[17:42] <vecKt> but even totem doesn't play *any* ultimedia file
[17:42] <netbook> I couldn't get bitlbee working
[17:42] <ZykoticK9> vecKt, have you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[17:42] <Slart> Idioteque: from what I can see it uses 1920x1080 ... it doesn't report any errors (except the one at line 152 but it seems to get past that one just fine
[17:43] <vecKt> yes, i have.
[17:43] <rsk> mee_: i do not suggest not upgrading at all, i'm just putting things in perspective
[17:43] <rsk> vecKt: tried what i asked of you yet?
[17:43] <vecKt> ZykoticK9: yes i have.
[17:43] <vecKt> ZykoticK9: even reinstalled it just in case, lol
[17:43] <Idioteque> Slart, i get 1920x1080 on VGA but it flickers like nuts... and on DVI i cant get the 1920x1080 resolution
[17:43] <mee_> rsk: is this a bug/problem/weakness of linux? heard if some people are working on it?
[17:43] <vecKt> rsk: yes, mplayer plays everything, but totem and rythmbox doesn't play anything
[17:44] <vecKt> rsk: except wav
[17:44] <rsk> ok have you reported a bug?
[17:44] <kitche> netbook: bitlbee is better if you use their servers if you do not knowhow to configure it yourself
[17:44] <rsk> mee_: this is not a weakness of linux, it's a weakness of the progress of upgrading. it's in _ALL_ operating systems.
[17:45] <Idioteque> Slart?
[17:45] <Slart> Idioteque: hmm.. well.. I can't really see a reson for it in that logfile.. not sure what else to try
[17:45] <mee_> rsk: agree that its not linux's fault, maybe packaging systems (deb/rpms)
[17:45] <Idioteque> is there anyway i can add the resolution so that it will appear in my nvidia config software?
[17:46] <Gianlu24> !it
[17:46] <Idioteque> i tried adding using the xorg but it doesnt work
[17:46] <rsk> mee_: no, it's not any package systems fault, it's the fault that you are using something outside of apt-get annd then run a upgrade that changes how things work.
[17:46] <rsk> mee_: and the library hasn't changed to fit with the upgrade.
[17:47] <rsk> mee_: you can only blaim this on not doing things the right way.
[17:48] <rsk> mee_: but if you have the source, usually a recompile fixes any potential problems.
[17:49] <rsk> mee_: what is the library you want btw?
[17:51] <vecKt> rsk: totem searches for codecs and then returns: "The playback of this movie requires the following decoders which are not installed: MPEG-1 Video decoder, MPEG-1 Audio decoder"... it returns a similar error with other audio/video formats... and yes, i have installed restricted extras.... any ideas*
[17:51] <rsk> no i only used mplayer and don't bother with that crap :p
[17:51] <rsk> use*
[17:51] <zaoul> How can I find out what packages I DON'T need?
[17:51] <Chousuke> :P
[17:51] <rsk> my suggestion is to fill out a bugreport on launchpad
[17:52] <Chousuke> totem is probably going to become better than mplayer at some point
[17:52] <Idioteque> hi, i am unable to get the proper resolution using DVI for a widescreen monitor, using VGA i can get the proper resolution which is 1920x1080 please help me
[17:52] <h32Lg> hi @all
[17:52] <Chousuke> if it isn't already
[17:52] <rsk> zaoul: chek what packages you use, the one you DONT use you don't need i guess...
[17:52] <bodib> I have this ubuntu netbook remix, didn't matter what I did with the env, it wouldn't go UTF8.
[17:52] <bodib> HOW to fix this VM ?
[17:52] <zaoul> Idioteque: what graphics card?

[17:53] <rapha> Question, in Empathy there's "People nearby" - what kind of nearby people can I see with this?
[17:53] <weedar> After installing openshot I am unable to play mpeg-4 videos with vlc - does anyone know what package provides this ability?
[17:53] <zaoul> Idioteque: you have the nvidia driver working?
[17:53] <Idioteque> zaoul, yeah nvidia drivers are working
[17:53] <zaoul> weedar: maybe ffmepg?
[17:54] <Idioteque> only problem is when i use DVI i cant get the required resolution
[17:54] <zaoul> Idioteque: post out your xorg.conf to a pastebin
[17:54] <erUSUL> rapha: probably people on you lan that have a empathy account of the same type ??
[17:54] <fission6> can someone recommend to me a good gui sFTP client
[17:54] <Idioteque> zaoul, http://paste.ubuntu.com/287121/
[17:55] <shaullx> i get this error when i try to boot ubuntu "could not start the x server (your graphical environment) due to some internal error" i get this after trying to partition with gparted please help
[17:55] <cry0> fission6: gftp is good
[17:55] <rapha> erUSUL: that's my question, what KIND of account is that - the "nearby" to me implies that it's something wireless, so maybe it's Bluetooth and I can get an app for my or my gf's mobile...
[17:55] <erUSUL> fission6: filezilla ?
[17:55] <weedar> zaoul: hm, that doesn't sound like a bad guess..I will check it out
[17:55] <Guest5811> on NVidia x server after savin configuration it write me down Unable to remove old X config backup file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'.  Is there any tip how should i fix it and don't have to set configuration every boot?
[17:55] <fission6> thanks
[17:55] <bodib> So?
[17:55] <bodib> I have this ubuntu netbook remix, didn't matter what I did with the env, it wouldn't go UTF8.
[17:55] <bodib> HOW to fix this VM ?
[17:56] <shaullx> please? its urgent i need a fix for this
[17:56] <erUSUL> rapha: i think that is something zeroconf based for computers in the same LAN/subnet (wire or wireless )
[17:56] <Quoexl_Xoenig> anyone know how to do a netbook remix PXE install?
[17:56] <KB1JWQ> Quoexl_Xoenig: Do netbooks even support PXE booting?
[17:56] <erUSUL> shaullx: what "trying to partition with gparted" exactly means ?
[17:56] <Idioteque> zaoul,
[17:57] <Idioteque> ?
[17:57] <rapha> erUSUL: okay thx ... it's just pretty useless when it's "something" ;)
[17:57] <SwampThing> Guest5811: are you using sudo?
[17:57] <shaullx> erUSUL i tried to make another partition and nothing happend for 2 hours so i canceled it
[17:57] <SwampThing> Quoexl_Xoenig: there is a how to I followed the worked for me
[17:57] <Guest5811> yes
[17:57] <SwampThing> Quoexl_Xoenig: *that
[17:57] <erUSUL> rapha: something == i do not know the details of the protocol
[17:57] <Guest5811> SwampThing: yes
[17:57] <erUSUL> shaullx: :| i would boot into a livecd and check if the parition table and paritions are ok
[17:58] <SwampThing> Guest5811: it doesn't make sense to me that /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup would cause a problem
[17:58] <elad`> What OS would you recommend for an HTPC?
[17:58] <Myth`> Hey room, how can I use sed to replace a windows created text files \r\n with just \n
[17:58] <Guest5811> SwampThing: for me doesn't make sense at all.
[17:59] <rsk> elad`: the one you want.
[17:59] <Quoexl_Xoenig> SwampThing: got a linky?
[17:59] <elad`> Mythbuntu?
[17:59] <erUSUL> rapha: what i mean is two computers in the same network with those account enabled (users) would be able to see each other and chat between them without the need of a thirth party server ala MSN gtalk etc
[17:59] <SwampThing> Quoexl_Xoenig: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot
[18:00] <Quoexl_Xoenig> KB1JWQ: mine isnt exactly a netbook its a lifebook but should be along the same lines
[18:00] <erUSUL> Myth`: from sed1liners.txt --> sed 's/.$//'
[18:00] <SwampThing> Quoexl_Xoenig: you need a computer to host the pxe server stuff
[18:00] <Quoexl_Xoenig> I have 9.04 installed on it now works fine but no touchscreen
[18:00] <Quoexl_Xoenig> I know I have a linux server right here too
[18:00] <SwampThing> cool
[18:00] <Quoexl_Xoenig> installed 9.04 with it
[18:00] <elad`> What OS would you recommend for an HTPC? Mythbuntu? Where do I get that?
[18:01] <rsk> elad`: google it
[18:01] <Daviey> elad`: mythbuntu.org.
[18:01] <rapha> erUSUL: i understand that; still it would be nice to know the protocol so you could find apps for other OSs that work with it
[18:01] <SwampThing> !pxe
[18:01] <Guest5811> SwampThing: so any suggestion?
[18:01] <SwampThing> Guest5811: I shouldn't make any recommendations without more information
[18:02] <Guest5811>  SwampThing: what do you want to know?
[18:02] <elad`> If I'm going to use iMon, should I opt for the 64bit or the 32bit version?
[18:02] <Quoexl_Xoenig> oh well pee pee, no netboot.tar.gz for netbook
[18:02] <Idioteque> hi, i am unable to get the proper resolution using DVI for a widescreen LCD, using VGA i can get the proper resolution which is 1920x1080 but the screen flickers. i am using nvidia FX5200 card.  please help me out...
[18:05] <SwampThing> Guest5811: what is the problem?
[18:05] <root__> alias c='/clear'
[18:05] <kane77> hi, is there something that would generate fstab for all partitions automatically?
[18:06] <Guest5811> i have to set display configuration each boot. It won't let me save optimal configuration....
[18:07] <suseanders> I ran "dd_rescue /dev/zero /dev/sdc2" on a partition I wish to fill with zeros. All was running smoothly, until I checked back recently, and now I get a flood of warning messages in the terminal saying "no space left on device!" And yet, dd_rescue is still running. Is this normal? Is there a risk that it will wipe data of another adjacent partition?
[18:08] <Idioteque> hi, i am unable to get the proper resolution using DVI for a widescreen LCD, using VGA i can get the proper resolution which is 1920x1080 but the screen flickers. i am using nvidia FX5200 card.  please help me out...
[18:08] <n8tuser> suseanders -> possibly? know what the command do beforehand to avoid that kind of risk
[18:08] <suseanders> n8tuser, I read about it beforehand.
[18:08] <SwampThing> Guest5811: meaning Xorg is unable to read /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[18:08] <suseanders> It simply fills the partition/device with zeros.
[18:09] <n8tuser> suseanders -> you should just use  dd  but itself not sure what dd_rescue script does
[18:09] <suseanders> n8tuser, however, for some reason it is flooding with warning messages saying "no space left on device!" which is odd, because shouldn't it just stop at that point?
[18:09] <HellasVerona> hello
[18:09] <n8tuser> suseanders -> i dont know what dd_rescue script do
[18:10] <suseanders> n8tuser, as far as I know, dd_rescue ignores drive errors and continues with the wipe/fill.
[18:10] <Guest5811>  SwampThing: no when, i try to save it, it show me that message..
[18:10] <n8tuser> suseanders -> a quick search on google seems to indicate it has bugs
[18:10] <fission6> i have a mount on my desktop how do i get to the actuall file path for it?
[18:11] <mikejet> I like running the Update Manager every tuesday, kind of like Windows. Is there a convenient webpage that describes the past week's updates?
[18:11] <gradin_> so... my laptop overheated during an apt-get install
[18:11] <NoCode> fission6, What's mounted there?
[18:11] <NoCode> fission6, External drive?
[18:11] <fission6> i have a network drive mounted bu ti ma not sure what path its mounted to
[18:11] <gradin_> now i get  unable to stat `./usr/lib/p7zip' (which I was about to install): Stale NFS file handle
[18:11] <suseanders> n8tuser, safer to just use dd then?
[18:12] <fission6> NoCode is a network file system
[18:12] <gradin_> how do i fix it?
[18:12] <shayaknyc> hi, i'm hoping someone can help me figure out how to configure passive ftp iptables rules....
[18:12] <shayaknyc> i've searched, but a lot of it doesn't make sense to me
[18:12] <NoCode> fission6, hmm, not sure about that. I doubt it would be mounted in /media. It could be though. Check.
[18:13] <erUSUL> rapha: a little bit of googling seems to indicate that the protocol is named "Salut"
[18:13] <netbook> Is there anything bad about CenterIm?
[18:13] <netbook> is it insecure or something?
[18:13] <Idioteque> hi, i am unable to get the proper resolution using DVI for a widescreen LCD, using VGA i can get the proper resolution which is 1920x1080 but the screen flickers. i am using nvidia FX5200 card.  please help me out...
[18:13] <fission6> NoCode nope
[18:13] <NoCode> fission6, Then I don't know.
[18:14] <rapha> erUSUL: oh wow ... didn't think you'd do the googling for me - thanks!
[18:14] <erUSUL> fission6: if you used nautilus or connect to Server then it is mounted in ~/.gvfs/
[18:14] <n8tuser> suseanders -> i dont about safe, dd just copies bit for bit, so whatever is there is copied over
[18:14] <erUSUL> rapha: well i too wanted to know
[18:14] <SwampThing> Guest5811: what are you doing to save your /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[18:14] <shayaknyc> anyone around that can help me with iptables rules?
[18:14] <rapha> erUSUL: actually, i just found something that seems to suggest it WAS named salut and IS now named bonjour and it seems to be some Apple thing
[18:14] <Idioteque> anyone?
[18:15] <fission6> erUSUL: spot on man thanks!
[18:15] <Gewitterstern> Is it possible to import FF and Thunderbird Profile under Ubuntu Linux? FBU File.

[18:15] <sam1> how device driver works in linux?
[18:15] <erUSUL> fission6: no problem
[18:15] <prajjwal> Gewitterstern, you can import the extentions preety easily ....
[18:15] <erUSUL> sam1: can you be more specific ?
[18:16] <_anonymous_> hi guys
[18:16] <Guest5811>  SwampThing: just press Save to X configuration file on Nvidia X server
[18:16] <Gewitterstern> prajjwal, i made a backup as FBU file.
[18:16] <_anonymous_> can you help me disable cron jobs
[18:16] <prajjwal> oh ...
[18:16] <SwampThing> Guest5811: I don't have Nvidia X server.
[18:16] <Idioteque> anyone?
[18:16] <Idioteque> i am unable to get the proper resolution using DVI for a widescreen LCD, using VGA i can get the proper resolution which is 1920x1080 but the screen flickers. i am using nvidia FX5200 card.  please help me out...
[18:17] <Guest5811> SwampThing: so no help?
[18:17] <rapha> erUSUL: oh okay ... that's interesting because here at the client's site there's a couple of macs in the LAN ... maybe they just have to open their IM thingies, whatever it is they use on macs
[18:17] <trevor_> I downloaded gfire and installed but I can't find it, sorry for the dumb question, I'm completely new to ubuntu
[18:18] <jacquesdupontd> hi im trying to ask something since 2 hours could someone help me i think it's simple for those who knows ?
[18:18] <ZogG> where is kernels dir in ubuntu and how i manage symlinks?
[18:18] <SwampThing> Guest5811: can't help without the hardware and the software to test.  You can try modifying your xorg.conf file manually, that's all I can recommend, but specifics you would have to research on your own
[18:18] <jacquesdupontd> i'm watching movies directly with vlc without downloading it by just simply using the command "vlc http://file.avi/" and it's working pretty well but sometimes its freezing, my download speed is over 300 ko/s so really sufficient to download a movie of 1h30, do someone know a bit vlc and could help me with a better command ? also i have this error when it freeze in the terminal : [00000414] avcodec decoder error: more than 5 s
 econds of late video -> dropping frame (computer too slow ?
[18:18] <erUSUL> ZogG: man ln for symlinks. Define "kernels dir"
[18:18] <Idioteque> i am unable to get the proper resolution using DVI for a widescreen LCD, using VGA i can get the proper resolution which is 1920x1080 but the screen flickers. i am using nvidia FX5200 card.  please help me out...
[18:19] <Idioteque> anyone?
[18:19] <erUSUL> jacquesdupontd: configure vlc to have a bigger network buffer ? ??
[18:19] <erUSUL> !repeat | Idioteque
[18:19] <bucky> jacquesdupontd, do you have integrated intel graphics?
[18:19] <sam1> how device driver works in linux
[18:19] <arand> ZogG: kernels in /boot/* ?
[18:19] <rsk> sam1: depends on the hardware
[18:20] <jacquesdupontd> erUSUL, hrm i just thought it could be the buffer but may you have other ideas ?
[18:20] <erUSUL> jacquesdupontd: nope sorry
[18:20] <sam1> rsk: hane any video tutorial available?
[18:21] <rsk> sam1: for doing what?
[18:21] <mgv1> how can i revive my laptop microphone to work?
[18:21] <Doonz> hey guys i just had a dedicated server setup. THey installed the desktop and i cant connect to it through vncviewer
[18:21] <ZogG> arand it's for grub
[18:21] <rsk> Doonz: call them and ask how you are supposed to connect to it.
[18:22] <ZogG> arand, there is also in symlink to dir for system that it can know wich kernel i use and install modules in there
[18:22] <erUSUL> sam1: to  writte kernel drivers ? Linux Device Drivers 3 (LDD3) and www.kernelnewbies,org
[18:22] <ZogG> i want to find out if it's different from kernels one
[18:22] <jacquesdupontd> bucky, no nvidia and it's working perfectly sometimes during 30 minutes it doesn't matter i just doesn't understand or i understand that the buffer is too big and instead of just needing the speed of downloading it at his time life speed which means not more than 100ko/s at all , do you undersand ?
[18:24] <arand> ZogG: not quite sure I get what you're after, but yes /boot/vmlinuz-* is the kernel grub uses, and initrd.img-* the initial ramdisk
[18:24] <bucky> jacquesdupontd, mess around with the settings in Preferences=>Tools=>Input & Codecs including Cacheing
[18:24] <bucky> jacquesdupontd, you need more cacheing... because avi is an uncompressed pig
[18:24] <ZogG> arand where ubuntu keeps kernels in which dir? /usr/src ?
[18:25] <SwampThing> Guest5811: the other option is to get paid support
[18:25] <bucky> jacquesdupontd, and 300 kb/s is small
[18:25] <jacquesdupontd> bucky, thx i will need you then, i just think i can do better
[18:26] <Guest5811> SwampThing: that solution is not for me...
[18:26] <jacquesdupontd> bucky, highest latency or lowest ?

[18:27] <Quontrex> !ask
[18:27] <Guest5811> SwampThing:i just try to find it out elsewhere
[18:27] <spreadthelove2> i have no idea what it means
[18:27] <arand> ZogG: I'm not sure but afaik that is the source, the kernel that is actually used is in /boot/ the source is used when reinstalling/compiling/adding modules I would presume
[18:28] <SwampThing> Guest5811: I hope you find the answer
[18:28] <Guest5811> SwampThing: thx mate

[18:42] <McHavok> Is there a way to "reset" the repositories list?
[18:42] <McHavok> I screwed up with the file without making a back-up first :$
[18:42] <rawpure> anyone around that can help me with themes? everyone i have tried just comes out looking like crap and nothing at all like the pics ><

[18:43] <tjhart85> Hi there, I was wondering if anyone could help me....I have ubuntu server set up & I am attempting to have a user access my server via ssh, his user account works perfectly fine when used locally, but when coming from the outside, the authentification always fails.  My user works find with the exact same configuration on the outside connection...any ideas?
[18:43] <daveycakes> what would be a good ftp client for ubuntu?
[18:43] <rawpure> yea i have GTK murrina, emerald and compiz..
[18:43] <McHavok> Filezilla?
[18:43] <ProfOak> Hi, whenever I play stepmania on Ubuntu it always feels the need to quickly log me out at unexpected times. Usually the length of 1-2 songs.
[18:43] <daveycakes> it wont run on here for some reason
[18:43] <sam1> my Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video Capture is working
[18:43] <McHavok> I mind the Gui's
[18:44] <sam1> i am using XawTv to watch TV.
[18:44] <joaopinto> tjhart85, you mean, doing and ssh locally works but not remotely ?
[18:44] <genii> McHavok: There's also usually an example one in /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/sources.list
[18:44] <daveycakes> so i need an alternative
[18:44] <sam1> Then what would be the /dev file associated with this device?
[18:44] <sam1> how can i find that?
[18:44] <Ali> hi guys - i am having trouble listening to rm files on ubuntu
[18:44] <McHavok> Check in synaptic, daveycakes.
[18:44] <Ali> getting stream errors etc
[18:44] <McHavok> Try FTP in search bar

[18:45] <McHavok> Ali, do you have real player installed?
[18:45] <rawpure> and for some reason all the default ubuntu themes are now gone
[18:46] <Ali> yeah i do
[18:46] <Ali> but it doesnt play anything
[18:46] <jacquesdupontd> ok bucky seems to work better will see later
[18:46] <jacquesdupontd> i had another question
[18:46] <heatmzzr> can someone assist me in getting my onboard bluetooth to work?
[18:46] <daveycakes> i cant get my 3 mobile broadband dongle to work on ubuntu
[18:46] <McHavok> When you try to play the file, what does the player do?
[18:46] <daveycakes> can you help please
[18:47] <heatmzzr> daveycakes: verizon?
[18:47] <Ali> McHavok, i get GStreamer encountered a general stream error. -- that's on totem. i do have real player installed too
[18:47] <smn__> can anyone help me fix my broken sound?
[18:47] <pw-toxic> can someone tell me what the default ubuntu windows and gnome panel manager is called?
[18:47] <HairyDude> Firefox says: Can not install 'icedtea6-plugin' (E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.)
[18:47] <pw-toxic> i need to start it manually
[18:47] <HairyDude> aptitude disagrees
[18:47] <daveycakes> 3 mobile (three - thats the network)
[18:48] <ssboisen> for enquiries about wubi is this the right place to ask?
[18:48] <fosco_> !wubi
[18:48] <Ali> any idea anyone?
[18:48] <mgv1> i every half hour having a dimming flash over the screen - why?
[18:48] <Ali> McHavok,
[18:48] <Ali> ?
[18:48] <HairyDude> (also, after failing to install it the dialogue box claims it's installed)
[18:48] <McHavok> Ali, try to uninstall gstreamer
[18:48] <McHavok> And then install it back.
[18:49] <ssboisen> tried installing ubuntu with wubi on a windows 7 installation - but i get the try (hd0,0): NTFS5: No wubildr error and google-searches got me nowhere
[18:49] <Ali> McHavok, real player doesnt even open it - it just hangs
[18:49] <HairyDude> otoh the java plugin seems to be installing fine
[18:49] <huwaw69> how can I make archive manager to support 7zip files?
[18:49] <McHavok> Ok Ali, open synaptic, find gstreamer and mark for uninstall
[18:49] <torn> This might not be the right chatroom, but I figured someone would know: Why is the term "SCSI" applied so often with drives on Linux? SCSI this, SCSI, that. Even in /dev/disk/by-id, they are listed as SCSI drives. I have never seen a SCSI drive in a personal computer, ever. Only SATA (and years ago, PATA.) So why is the term SCSI used so often? "Actual" SCSI drives seem hard to find in the market.
[18:50] <Pici> huwaw69: install the p7zip package
[18:50] <Ali> McHavok, even though all other files work on it?
[18:50] <shaullx> i cant boot into ubuntu in graphics mode i get an error says something about error trying to start x server to see logs and then restart gdm, right now im on live USB what should i do to fix it?
[18:50] <huwaw69> Pici, will archive manager automatically starts when I extract 7zip files?
[18:51] <Ali> McHavok, there r loads of gstreamers installed
[18:51] <Pici> huwaw69: That will add the ability to extract 7zip files with file-roller, the default ubuntu archive program.
[18:51] <McHavok> Ali, i'm trygin to find another way.
[18:51] <McHavok> Wait me for a second please.
[18:51] <Ali> ok thanks McHavok - much appreciated
[18:51] <torn> huwaw69, File Roller supports uncompressing and compressing .7z files after installing the p7zip package, I believe.
[18:51] <McHavok> This is my first time in here :$
[18:51] <torn> huwaw69, after installing the package, you do not need to do anything extra, other than use the Archive Manager (in my case File Roller) as you normally would.
[18:52] <huwaw69> thanks torn
[18:52] <shaullx> someone?
[18:52] <torn> Anyone know the reason why? (About my SCSI question?)
[18:52] <Ali> ok cool McHavok - that's very kind of u to help
[18:53] <McHavok> torn.
[18:53] <McHavok> Linux marks SATA discs as SCSI
[18:53] <KB1JWQ> Quoexl_Xoenig: Terrific, but does it support PXE booting?
[18:53] <h4f> once in a while pidgin crashes ?
[18:54] <torn> McHavok, why is that, though?
[18:54] <cybersplice> mmm. scsi.
[18:54] <torn> McHavok, it seems to only add confusion.
[18:54] <Zatcharius> Hello, anyone know why Ubuntu live boots me to a very wavy desktop?
[18:54] <Blackbird> Stupid question, but. Once I have Icecast installed, how do I set it up or enable it or something like that?
[18:54] <Zatcharius> It's almost unreadable
[18:54] <shaullx> common guys no one can help me?
[18:55] <Blackbird> I sure can't run it. From terminal all I get is three options, two of them involving looking at the version number.
[18:55] <Xcell> shaullx-  try on boot in recovery and enter this    sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[18:56] <McHavok> Ali, the error message comes with a code of some sort.
[18:56] <shaullx> Xcell in the boot menu select recovery?
[18:56] <Xcell> hit escape on boot to get to termonal
[18:56] <Ali> no McHavok
[18:56] <McHavok> Ok.
[18:56] <Ali> McHavok, it just says An error occurred. GStreamer encountered a general stream error.
[18:56] <Xcell> @ boot yes shaullx
[18:57] <Ali> McHavok, i have tried removing real player also - same error - btw what's the 'correct' way of installing real player on ubuntu?
[18:57] <McHavok> synaptic?
[18:57] <shaullx> Xcell ok thanks ill try:)
[18:57] <Xcell> ok  when ur done type startx and reboot

[18:58] <bostongeek24> how do i find out whats taking up space on my hard drive?

[19:00] <Ali> McHavok, what's helix player?
[19:00] <bucky> Guest5811, set it in System=>Preferences=>Display
[19:00] <genii> bostongeek24: Did you install Ubuntu with Wubi? (from inside Windows) If so, the free space reported is not from your actual drive but from the file it made which is a virtual drive
[19:00] <phiberoptik> I am lookin for french server?
[19:00] <phiberoptik> looking*
[19:00] <fosco_> !fr
[19:00] <LjL> phiberoptik: server for what?
[19:00] <McHavok> Ali, It's a media player
[19:00] <phiberoptik> french Ubuntu server
[19:01] <phiberoptik> french ubuntu irc server :)
[19:01] <LjL> phiberoptik: there isn't a server, there is a channel. type /join #ubuntu-fr
[19:01] <bucky> channel?

[19:02] <fallingol> Is there a way to have the notification area applet notify  me of new emails without Evolution being open and minimized?  Once closed I can't see the new message count on the applet  anymore. Sorry for any bad English.
[19:02] <McHavok> And I'm seeing that it has support for real files.
[19:03] <Ali> hmm
[19:03] <Ali> but that doesn't play it either
[19:03] <ttreake> is it possible at all to start terminal with a keyboard shortcut?
[19:03] <Ali> ttreake, alt-f2
[19:04] <fallingol> ttreake: Yes. You can also set custom shortcuts in System > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts.
[19:04] <ttreake> Ali, that brings up a "Run Applivation" dialogue box
[19:04] <grumete> guys please help me, my ubuntu after a software update it's not recognizing my graphic card, and it shows a screen resolution that doesn't fits, it's too big and imposible to work on.
[19:04] <fallingol> grumete: Check System > Administration > Hardware Drivers.
[19:05] <Ali> ttreake, then type: gnome-terminal
[19:05] <fallingol> Or System > Preferences > Display to get a workable space.
[19:05] <grumete> fallingol, I can't do that, I can't access that, the screen is just to weird.
[19:05] <McHavok> Ali, did you installed helix dna too?
[19:05] <fallingol> Do you have an NVIDIA card?
[19:05] <grumete> also I'm on windows right now, otherwise I wouldn't be chatting with you :(
[19:05] <Ali> McHavok, i installed the real player from real's site and it works - it installed it in /opt - but isn't there a proper way of doing this with a deb file?
[19:05] <grumete> yes.
[19:05] <grumete> geforce 7000
[19:05] <fallingol> Do you have the NVIDIA driver installed?
[19:05] <ttreake> Ali, I want something fast. I'm going to try what fallingol suggested.
[19:06] <grumete> fallingol, apparently not.
[19:06] <Ali> ok np ttreake - i won't take offence :)
[19:06] <grumete> and I don't know how to do it.
[19:06] <McHavok> Yeah, from the repositories.
[19:06] <ttreake> fallingol, what's the command for terminal?
[19:06] <Ali> lol McHavok - i know that - but the one in the rep isn't working :)
[19:06] <Kalisto> can someone help me out with a fakeraid setup and grub? im having trouble installing grub to be exact.
[19:07] <McHavok> I'm using the medibuntu repository
[19:07] <maestrojed> I am trying to set up a server to use my static comcast ip. I am really confused as to what the broadcase and network ips should be. Can they be left blank? what are they and can anyone help me figure out what to set them to?
[19:07] <ttreake> anyone: what's the command for terminal?
[19:08] <Flannel> ttreake: gnome-terminal
[19:08] <Blackbird> Okay. I'm having some trouble. Exaile has a little plugin called icestreamer so I can stream to icecast and shoutcast servers. However, it requires libshout2 and shout-python libraries. Neither of those packages exist anymore. WHat do I do?
[19:09] <Blackbird> I have libshout3 installed, but apparently that's not good enough for the plugin.
[19:09] <neonblurb> anyone got any recommendations for music players?  I'm looking for something that isn't media library-based/itunes style like rhythmbox, and having trouble streaming m4as with audacious
[19:09] <Ali> RealPlayer 10 for Linux is based on the open source Helix player. -- does it say that McHavok ?
[19:09] <McHavok> Yep.
[19:09] <tsrk_> Does anyone here use VirtualBox 3.0 (not-OSE)?
[19:09] <McHavok> And it weights 8504 KB.
[19:09] <ZykoticK9> tsrk_, yes - got a question?
[19:10] <Ali> how can u tell that McHavok ?
[19:10] <sebsebseb> tsrk_: sometimes
[19:10] <buntu> joining
[19:10] <McHavok> Right click on the package >> properties.
[19:10] <Ali> hold on McHavok - mine says 8104kb!! why the diff?
[19:10] <sebsebseb> tsrk_: Or versions in that series, anyway, what's your actsaul question?
[19:10] <ttreake> I dont get keyboard shortcuts
[19:11] <McHavok> 400 KB :P
[19:11] <ttreake> where do you enter the key combination
[19:11] <McHavok> What it's the version?
[19:11] <Pici> !who
[19:11] <tsrk_> ZykoticK9, if you updated to the latest version from the VirtualBox repos, did you get a configuration option during the update? If so, what was it? I got one, but it grabbed focus and selected the default option without giving me a chance to see what it was.
[19:11] <Ali> 11.0.0-0.3medibuntu2 McHavok
[19:11] <McHavok> The same I have.
[19:11] <McHavok> That's weird.
[19:11] <ivonnemoy> is anyone familiar with booting ubuntu from a flash drive?
[19:12] <ivonnemoy> i know where i can find the page
[19:12] <S34l-Clvbb3r> !ask | ivonnemoy
[19:12] <ZykoticK9> tsrk_, I take it you must have upgraded from VBox 2.x?  I don't remember getting any configuration options sorry man...
[19:12] <Ali> McHavok, ok now what?! :)
[19:13] <ttreake> anyone in this channel: where do you type the keyboard combinations in "Keyboard Shortcuts"?
[19:13] <tsrk_> ZykoticK9, no, just the latest update (from 3.0.x to 3.0.x)
[19:13] <ZykoticK9> tsrk_, hold on - sudo apt-get update -- now i have a vbox update to do - hold on i'll check
[19:13] <Pici> tsrk_: If you're asking about the non-ose version of vbox, its probably best to ask in their official support channel: #vbox
[19:13] <tsrk_> ZykoticK9, ok, thanks
[19:13] <Guest5811> bucky: that is not working
[19:13] <ivonnemoy> the question is, is there anyone familiar with booting ubunto with a flash drive? because if there is, i'll need more help than the https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick page, as it isn't very helpful with the technological terminology overwhelming me

[19:14] <blendmaster1024> hello, everybody. i'm trying to build an initramfs on 8.10, but i don't have /etc/mkinitramfs, even though i have initramfs-tools installed. anybody know what to do?
[19:15] <McHavok> Just a second, Ali, my ISP is giving me a hard day today -.-
[19:16] <bucky> Guest5811, next time you boot in set it in System=>Preferences=>Display and that should make it permanent
[19:16] <McHavok> (more than usual)
[19:16] <drox_> Hello here to speak english or italian?
[19:16] <buntu> is any linux distro more secure than other?
[19:17] <bucky> blendmaster1024, do you have a /etc/initramfs-tools/ ?
[19:17] <blendmaster1024> yes, bucky
[19:17] <vge> buntu: yes, but if you ask for it, it don't matter
[19:17] <ZykoticK9> tsrk_, didn't get any configuration options / or any prompts/info at all???
[19:18] <tsrk_> ZykoticK9, oh, weird.... i wonder what mine was then....
[19:18] <buntu> leaving...thankx
[19:18] <ZykoticK9> buntu, OpenBSD (which is not a linux at all) is probably the most secure OS out there - they went years without a remote access bug -- just an FYI
[19:19] <charlie_> windows is crap
[19:19] <djscantron> anyone in here knowledgeable about xorg?
[19:19] <Zort> Is it possible to read data form eg. tty1 while beeing on tty2 ?
[19:19] <maestrojed> Setting up a static IP requires a broadcast IP and Network IP. Neither of which I am familiar with. Can anyone help me figure out what they should be. I know my static ip, mask, and gateway
[19:20] <ssboisen> tried installing ubuntu with wubi on a windows 7 installation - but i get the try (hd0,0): NTFS5: No wubildr error and google-searches got me nowhere
[19:20] <ssboisen> anyone know what could be wrong?
[19:21] <bb05> ssboisen: tried installing it under virtualbox?
[19:21] <blendmaster1024> ssboisen: that would be because it's win7, and nobody's had time to make FOSS work with that yet
[19:21] <ZykoticK9> maestrojed, the broadcast IP is x.x.x.255 (what ever your internal network is - ie i'm on a 192 network so mine is <IP_ADDRESS>) hope that helps a little
[19:22] <blendmaster1024> bucky: so... how do i get the /etc/mkinitramfs that all the guides mention?
[19:22] <djscantron> I need help with configuring X11, can anyone help me?
[19:22] <BrownTI> Does anyone have experience with Clonezilla?
[19:23] <bucky> blendmaster1024, it's been replaced with /etc/initramfs-tools/ you need a newer guide preferable a jaunty one
[19:23] <maestrojed> ZykoticK9: Comcast's static IP is so different then anything else I have set up. They say/expect the machine to use the static IP they assign you. Your modem expects that ip. But this means my IPs are not local. i.e. IP = <IP_ADDRESS> gateway = <IP_ADDRESS> mask = <IP_ADDRESS>. Do you think broadcast would be <IP_ADDRESS>?
[19:24] <ZykoticK9> BrownTI, I use it - what is your question (if it isn't an easy one I probably won't know)
[19:24] <ZykoticK9> maestrojed, I'd think so
[19:25] <maestrojed> ZykoticK9: worth a try, brb
[19:25] <weebit> has anyone here bought a computer from system76?   I need to know if they are reliable etc
[19:25] <BrownTI> :) How do I get it to backup the mbr as well as the partition?
[19:25] <sebsebseb> weebit: system76 are  known to be good
[19:25] <ZykoticK9> BrownTI, i have no idea... sorry.
[19:26] <ZykoticK9> BrownTI, are you sure it doesn't backup the mbr?
[19:26] <sebsebseb> weebit: there's also zareason and Dell  for pre installed Ubuntu
[19:26] <BrownTI> yes but I just did the default backup
[19:26] <weebit> sebsebseb:  Thank you I get my computer from them in January as long as the sky doesn't fall :)
[19:26] <Zort> Is it possible to read data form eg. tty1 while beeing on tty2 ?
[19:27] <weebit> zareason? I never heard of them before
[19:27] <xtrme> :)
[19:28] <sebsebseb> weebit: ok
[19:28] <warai> Hi people, my Ati radeon 9200 isn't detected by Ubuntu, any solution?
[19:28] <sebsebseb> warai: system > administration > hardware drivers   anything available? did you install anything?
[19:28] <BrownTI> Do they have a room focused on Clonezilla? Anyone know? I just want to learn how to backup the mbr as well as the partition, because when I restore it still has the corrupt mbr and it does not overwrite with the good one.
[19:28] <sebsebseb> !ati |  warai
[19:28] <warai> sebsebseb: I tried this actually, nothing was shown
[19:29] <sebsebseb> warai: ATI cards are known to have problems on Ubuntu
[19:29] <warai> I should use the binary installer maybe?
[19:29] <sebsebseb> warai: I guess so
