[20:04] <Coinee> i've got a strange problem... not strictly ubuntu related tho... i installed a library (libupnp-1.4.2) but when i install an app that is dependent on it it says the library < 1.4.2... i tried ldconfig -v | grep libupnp-1.4.2, but that returned nothing... any ideas? :)
[20:05] <qense> needhelp: go to System->Preferences->Sessions
[20:05] <needhelp> ok then?
[20:06] <qense> needhelp: now press add and insert firestarter as command and think of a name you fancy
[20:06] <techII> komputes, searching with "~d rdp" in aptitude (another frontend to apt) i didn't see a server
[20:06] <qense> now it should start whenever you logon
[20:06] <needhelp> ok thanx im on mint
[20:06] <qense> needhelp: make sure you don't close the program bya ccident

[20:08] <Adpad> needhelp:  I was also struggling with Mint until yesterday, then I installed Ubuntu
[20:08] <komputes> techII: I did the same, which is why i'm asking here, I mean it's bizzare that ubuntu comes with an RDP client and no server end!?!
[20:08] <ere4si> !topic > needhelp
[20:08] <needhelp> im fine with mint just need to solve this firestarter thing

[20:09] <needhelp> it's ubuntu gusty made easy
[20:09] <qense> choose sessions there and continue
[20:09] <komputes> techII: theres also the possibility that RDP is not available for POSIX systems, is it a windows only thing?
[20:09] <techII> would probably have to compile it
[20:09] <needhelp> ok im on it then?
[20:09] <needhelp> and thanx for help
[20:09] <qense> yes
[20:10] <needhelp> startup programs add firestarter?

[20:10] <qense> mint is just ubuntu with some fancy stuff installed and enabled by default :)
[20:11] <qense> and the wizard added
[20:11] <qense> but the menu and control-panel are also available in ubuntu, you just have to find them
[20:11] <qense> (and sometimes install them)(
[20:11] <needhelp> mint is ubuntu for begginers i try all distro for desk mint is the only i can use no terminal
[20:11] <komputes> techII: Good to know but I would expect this to be in the repositories if it were ready

[20:11] <xb3rt> Does anyone here know how to set up a mybook on ubuntu
[20:11] <komputes> it's for human beings, that doen't mean it's easy
[20:12] <Coinee> don't i know it... :/

[20:15] <needhelp> that's for log out say or it's best not too?
[20:15] <Coinee> is there some sort of general linux help channel around? :)
[20:15] <j3kyll> komputes : okay thanks. im going to try your recomendation. ttyl
[20:15] <izzy_> !AUTH
[20:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about auth - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:15] <needhelp> you still here quense?
[20:15] <alan_m> Coinee, you might try #linux
[20:15] <xb3rt> I've got an external storage device connected to my wireless router and am trying to figure out how to access this storage through ubuntu, any ideas?
[20:15] <KalEl> the package gutsy-wallpapers has incorrect description - how can i correct it
[20:15] <Itaku> i installed phpmyadmin but how do i run it???
[20:16] <Coinee> that does sound like a rather sensible idea... ;)
[20:16] <izzy_> anyone know how to get Auth to show up when telneted ?
[20:16] <rufus_> what is the name for compiz config settings manager?
[20:16] <rufus_> in apt-get
[20:16] <KalEl> Itaku, http://localhost/phpmyadmin
[20:16] <Coinee> thanks... just one more thing: all you people who come here and answer questions: you're heroes. and with that, I bid you adieu... :)
[20:16] <captainm> compizconfig-settings-manager rufus_
[20:16] <Itaku> Not Found
[20:16] <Itaku> The requested URL /phpmyadmin was not found on this server.
[20:17] <KalEl> rufus_, compizconfig-settings-manager
[20:17] <komputes> xb3rt: so you want software to do that one touch backup?
[20:17] <KalEl> Itaku, reinstall mysql, apache, phpmyadmin
[20:17] <alan_m> without you though coinee, we got nothing to do but twiddle thumbs so you guys are OUR hero's for boredom lol
[20:17] <Itaku> will i lose my stuff?
[20:17] <rufus_> didnt work
[20:17] <Link> can some one tell me what the hell is "evolution-data-server-2.22" ???   his useing the CPU 80-90% all the time
[20:17] <techII> KalEl, unless you have access to modify whatever repository it or wherever that repository gets it from, you could possibly file a bug on launchpad
[20:17] <Itaku> and how do i reinstall?
[20:17] <evilbug> i want to run a shell script in order to start up a Counter-Strike server.i already made the .sh file with all the commands in it,but i can't figure out how to run it.help please.
[20:17] <pisecx> apt-get vs aptitude... what is better to use?
[20:17] <xb3rt> komputes: basically i want it to work just like a usb stick does, and it has worked like that before....but I might need some software to find it
[20:18] <techII> evilbug, chmod +x file.sh
[20:18] <james_n> need help with samba.  linux newbie trying to share a second HD (hdb1) over a network with windows computer.
[20:18] <rufus_> the one where you type ccsm to launch, what is it called in the repos?
[20:18] <mad_goldfish> Is udevd meant to soak up 90% of my cpu?
[20:18] <alan_m> pisecx, apt-get has a tendency of package breakage in my expriences, i love aptitude better.
[20:18] <techII> evilbug, /path/to/script/file.sh
[20:18] <komputes> xb3rt: what happens when you plug it in, does it show up?
[20:18] <aaron_> trying to run a stunnel client running on ubuntu, tried the aptitude package and source... however, It doesn't create a /etc/stunnel dir when I install it, I need to use a .conf file to specify the many different services i need to run through the client... any ideas?
[20:18] <pisecx> alan_m: yep, I heard about such a problem
[20:18] <danand> mad_goldfish - no
[20:19] <xb3rt> komputes: nothing pops up, but its suppose to pick it up just like the laptop picks up a wireless router, it just needs something set that can find it
[20:19] <mad_goldfish> danand, is that the module that handles my USB hard drive?
[20:19] <techII> evilbug, of course, if you are in the same directory as the script "./file.sh" would work
[20:19] <KalEl> Itaku, sorry in my case it was fixed when i reinstalled php5 mysql
[20:19] <techII> or just put it in /usr/local/bin and run it like any other command
[20:20] <poseidon> Is there a default folder for where wallpapers are located?  I am about to download a wallpaper, and I don't want to make a new folder for it if there is already a specified one.  I like to keep my shit neat :)
[20:20] <Itaku> KalEl: do i lose all my stuff and how do i reinstall stuff
[20:20] <evilbug> techII, thanks!
[20:20] <komputes> xb3rt: you have some reading/posting to do - http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6076/
[20:21] <mirak> are there any tool that can check endianess vailidity of C code ?
[20:21] <danand> mad_goldfish - no, udev dynamically handles how all devices are managed... it creates all the files etc under /dev. however, when you plug in a usb drive, udev will create an entry for it in /dev
[20:21] <KalEl> Itaku, you can try reinstalling through the synaptic package manager
[20:21] <nilminus> is there a way i can kill a process with a D flag ?
[20:22] <omar>  commant install kde4 ubuntu
[20:22] <needhelp> now the icon is not closion anymore you rock mate qense :)
[20:22] <komputes> techII: xrdp is still in Beta, any other recommendations?
[20:22] <komputes> Is VNC the only remote desktop server/daemon available through the repositories?
[20:22] <needhelp> closin *
[20:22] <aaron_> no, rdesktop as well
[20:22] <techII> komputes, not that i can think of
[20:23] <james_n> Can someone help me with Samba.  Ive read the documentation on ubuntuguide.org and i am still confused
[20:23] <mad_goldfish> danand, ah OK. Been trying to diagnose two separate problems and was hoping they were linked. My USD HDD doesn't show if it's plugged in on boot, and things have been a bit sluggish recently. Ah well, I'll get back to the forensics. Thanks
[20:23] <techII> komputes, X (the graphical system) is made to work over the network by itself
[20:23] <komputes> techII: I can open x programs through ssh tunnel, but thats not quite "remode desktop" where you are controlling the other's computer UI
[20:23] <comicinker> I have a packaging problem: how can I ensure a certain package (libhid) will be installed, when it is not supported by pkg-config?
[20:23] <nikrud> poseidon gnome doesn't keep wallpapers in a special place, just keeps an index to where it exists.
[20:24] <sarah____> hey guys, i have a question about wireless. Is there a script i can write to autoscan my ssid network and login automatically?
[20:25] <sarah____> because right now, i have to do it manually to connect to the internet
[20:25] <techII> you can run a while desktop, but it isn't really that elegant ( i don't think anyone has made an actual client that drops it into a window, except for xnest (unix only afaik))
[20:25] <danand> mad_goldfish - try looking here for some help... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=168221.
[20:25] <techII> so you are probably stuck with vnc for now...
[20:25] <danand> mad_goldfish - also what is the make and model of your USB HDD?
[20:26] <ere4si> I use vnc and it works good
[20:26] <noodlesgc> sarah____ you could install the waproamd package
[20:26] <mad_goldfish> danand, it's a western digital MyBook 250Gb
[20:26] <sarah____> noodlesgc what is that?
[20:27] <sarah____> my wireless and everything works dandy, except i have to keep typing in my password manually
[20:27] <aaron_> anybody know how to start up a stunnel CLIENT with a stunnel.conf file?
[20:27] <noodlesgc> sarah____ it is a package to automatically connect to open wireless acess points
[20:28] <aaron_> neither google nor forums have yielded me any results... plenty on setting up a server, but not client
[20:28] <hacked_kernel> sarah____: you can scan manually by "iwlist ehtX scan"  then you can make script to do it
[20:28] <j3kyll> stupid question but how do i uninstall things...?
[20:28] <mizu> hello all
[20:28] <sarah____> my package manager link is broking...
[20:29] <sstoveld> j3kyll, applicationd > add/remove?
[20:29] <Adpad> Please can someone help:  For some reason, all my my mounted disks have become READ ONLY (locked).  I was using the diskmounter utility before...  I've cat /etc/fstab to http://paste.stgraber.org/1976
[20:29] <blizzkid> hi all. is there a quick way to download build-essential and dependencies from a windows client? (my ubuntu install has no drivers for nic/wlan AND can't access cd-rom)
[20:29] <sarah____> sudo apt-get install -f
[20:29] <sarah____> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[20:29] <j3kyll> sstoveld
[20:29] <mizu> I JUST successfuly installed my USB TV DVB-T tuner under ubuntu
[20:29] <j3kyll> thanks
[20:29] <noodlesgc> j3kyll sudo apt-get remove package, or make uninstall if compiled from source
[20:29] <j3kyll> thanks all
[20:29] <mizu> can anybody help me with streaming over net ?
[20:30] <yeaha> just heard about M$ Vista brings a new filesystem : "EXFat"   <--- wil lthis be supported ?
[20:30] <Stroganoff> mizu: !ask
[20:30] <techII> mizu, listening/viewing streams, or sending them out?
[20:30] <Toznoshio> bastid_raZor: .doc files with MS Word on top of CrossOver Office, but with a sudo in front of it
[20:30] <patrick_> im using serpentine to burn a cd, i try to drag and drop my files, it says the files are not supported, what do i do?
[20:31] <captainm> Adpad, change all the "ro" options to "rw"
[20:31] <sstoveld> hey guys, when i try to run synaptic package manager to install a new program, i get an error E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[20:31] <sstoveld> E: _cache->open() failed, please report., but when i run that command in a terminal, my computer shuts off and i need to unplug it for 5 seconds before i turn it on or the power wont go on
[20:31] <yeaha> IS EXFAT SUPPORTET????????
[20:31] <noodlesgc> patrick_ use the sound-converter package to convert the files or use a different burner (i recommend gnome-baker)
[20:31] <Stroganoff> blizzkid: the package is included on the ubuntu ISO
[20:32] <james_n> Can someone help me setup samba.  My linux Box is not showing up on my windows computer
[20:32] <blizzkid> Stroganoff: I can't access my cd after installation
[20:32] <Smegzor> is it possible to keep my home partition intact while 'upgrading' to 8.04 from the cd?  i'm on 7.10 now.
[20:33] <patrick_> sstoveld in terminal type "sudo dpkg --configure -a" it may ask for a password, just type it and voula
[20:33] <gregbrady> Is there an irc channel out there for HP Laserjet printers?  I can't seem to print to mine in Ubuntu.
[20:33] <danand> mad_goldfish - k. Just that theres some problems with some makes/models of usb drives ... they spin down they're disks after a certain time has passed by... subsequent IO can then lead to errors since the device is not ready. You can set up your udev rule to run a script to prevent this error though...
[20:34] <sstoveld> patrick_, i tried that, my computer just shut itself off and wouldnt power on til i unplugged it for 5 seconds then plugged it back in
[20:34] <danand> s/they're/their tut
[20:34] <noodlesgc> gregbrady you could try something like #cups or #cupsys
[20:34] <nikrud> Smegzor absolutely. the upgrade is done in place, doesn't affect home at all
[20:34] <gregbrady> noodlesgc, thanks.
[20:35] <nikrud> Smegzor if you're thinking of a fresh install, just do a manual partition and set /home to the right partition and mark it for no formatting
[20:35] <Smegzor> what i really need to hear is, if I tell it where my home is, can I tell it to NOT format /home?
[20:35] <Smegzor> thanks
[20:35] <patrick_> sstoveld restart your terminal and type in "sudo login" type in all passwords required, then manually run "dpkg --configure -a" exactly as i typed it (without quotes)
[20:35] <Stroganoff> blizzkid: create your own repo on USB drive with the necessary packages
[20:35] <Stroganoff> blizzkid: see http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/build-essential for dependencies
[20:35] <Smegzor> i've heard that doing that means I won't need to reinstall all my software.  Is this correct?
[20:36] <nikrud> Smegzor if you do the   upgrade-manager -d , correct. If you do it from a fresh install disk, see !clone following for a shortcut
[20:36] <Smegzor> should I make a backup of /home or since I'm going to tell it NOT to format, is /home safe as er..  houses ;)
[20:36] <nikrud> !clone | Smegzor
[20:36] <ubotu> Smegzor: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate
[20:36] <blizzkid> Stroganoff: I know that way, but that means I'll have to download all dependencies by hand, I'm kind a lazy ;)
[20:36] <KalEl> no text displayed in tracker-search-tool
[20:37] <Stroganoff> blizzkid: you could use AptOnCD if you weren't on windows
[20:37] <Smegzor> thanks
[20:37] <nikrud> Smegzor you mean you don't back up regularly already !!!?
[20:37] <Smegzor> I do but home is >400GB and my backup drive is 250GB
[20:37] <sstoveld> patrick_, when i do that it says dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege
[20:37] <Smegzor> I'll have to attack /home with a vacuum cleaner
[20:37] <Smegzor> its fat
[20:37] <sstoveld> patrick_, do i need to put sudo infront of that?
[20:38] <patrick_> noodlesgc is gnome-baker in the ubuntu repositories?
[20:38] <Smegzor> and I don't mean the formatting ;)
[20:38] <blizzkid> Stroganoff: I can't access my cd once in Ubuntu
[20:38] <captainm> sstoveld, yes
[20:38] <mad_goldfish> danand, I don't think that's the problem. So long as I connect the HDD after the login screen appears, it'll happily work for hours, whether it spins down or not. I have a feeling it's an ordering issue in boot or something, but not quite sure. It's annoying certainly
[20:38] <noodlesgc> patrick_ yes
[20:38] <danand> poseidon - bit late but /usr/share/backgrounds/
[20:38] <nikrud> Smegzor I always reinstall , and reuse home. I just triple check that I set the partition for not formatted
[20:38] <Stroganoff> blizzkid: you could copy the repo of the created iso to usb drive
[20:38] <fbc> What do I need to learn to write the equivalent of Batch files(DOS) in ubuntu? I would like to automate some repetative tasks.
[20:38] <Adpad> captainm: thanks for the help, checking it now
[20:38] <patrick_> sstoveld, sudo is just authentication, like when terminal says you need "superuser priveleges"
[20:38] <captainm> sstoveld, A neat trick is doing sudo !!. That'll repeat te last command with sudo
[20:38] <Smegzor> my /home has a complete copy of my old windows pc on it (so I can poke and make fun of it)
[20:38] <patrick_> sorry guys im out
[20:39] <nikrud> fbc  install abs-guide , you will have a pretty decent advanced bash scripting guide at /usr/share/docs/abs-guide
[20:39] <captainm> Smegzor, storage space is cheap ;)
[20:39] <noodlesgc> blizzkid what you could do is select all the packages you want in synaptic, then click generate download script. then get wget for windows at sourceforge, and theoretically you could get the script working on windows
[20:39] <fbc> nikrud, thnks
[20:39] <sstoveld> ok im going to try it again, brb if pc shuts off again
[20:39] <mad_goldfish> doesn't even show in lsusb :-(
[20:39] <nikrud> Smegzor you shouldn't contaminate your system like that
[20:40] <blizzkid> noodlesgc: could you provide me with the download script? I do have wget
[20:40] <blizzkid> just don't feel like rebooting 5 times
[20:40] <Adpad> is there a way to get a specific line you want to repeat to come up in terminal, by starting it and getting and autocompletion??
[20:40] <blizzkid> ;)
[20:40] <nikrud> fbc a typo there:   /usr/share/doc/abs-guide
[20:40] <danand> mad_goldfish - maybe udev runs before the usb stuff is in place?? You could always sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart :)
[20:40] <noodlesgc> blizzkid you have to generate it yourself, of the packages you want
[20:40] <blizzkid> noodlesgc: it's build-essential + dependencies
[20:41] <tole> how do i get the kde desktop on ubuntu 7?
[20:41] <nikrud> Adpad   ctl-r , it's a reverse search thru old commands
[20:41] <danand> mad_goldfish - v annoying though i agree. Bet you wished you'd gone for a NAS drive now ;P
[20:41] <Adpad> thanks
[20:41] <noodlesgc> blizzkid, open synaptic and find build-essential, and mark it for installation. then click file->generate download script.
[20:42] <Traveler3> where Can I find more ABOUT spambots? What kind of spambot forges the "from" header making it look like that it came from yourself?
[20:42] <sstoveld> captainm, computer shut off again when i tried it, any reason why?
[20:42] <blizzkid> noodlesgc: last time I checked, synaptic didn't list build-essential
[20:42] <mad_goldfish> I've had the drive for a while, don't think there were many NAS options at the time. Though I see WD now has a WiFi NAS
[20:42] <captainm> tole, one easy way is to go to synaptic > edit > mark packages by task > kubuntu kde desktop.
[20:42] <nikrud> tole   sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop , then you can choose it under options->sessions on the login screen
[20:43] <rinaldi1> tole: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[20:43] <noodlesgc> blizzkid i have used ubuntu for several years and it has always had build-essential
[20:43] <blizzkid> noodlesgc: I swear it wasn't there... must be because I can't use either net nor cd for repo's
[20:44] <tole> ok.thanks.
[20:44] <Smegzor> which program gives a visual representation of files and dirs on my computer?  I want to clear out the fatter unnecessary stuff and it'd be faster if I could see them as fat blobs on my screen.
[20:44] <mad_goldfish> It's not a good sign it's taking *this* long to restart udev, surely?
[20:44] <noodlesgc> blizzkid of course, you need the package lists
[20:44] <nikrud> blizzkid what do you mean? you don't have a cd or net access?
[20:44] <captainm> sstoveld, I have no clue. Sorry
[20:44] <sstoveld> captainm, ok, thanks
[20:44] <sstoveld> ill be back later then, cya guys
[20:44] <blizzkid> nikrud: I don't have net access (no drivers) and when I try to use apt-get with cd, it fails to mount the cd
[20:44] <memian> smgdor: under accesories there must be disk usage solver or something
[20:45] <ethan961> tole, if you want base kde and no kde apps, do 'sudo aptitude install kde-core'
[20:45] <nikrud> blizzkid wow. You made sure that the cd is checked in system->admin->software sources?
[20:45] <danand> noodlesgc -  sudo apt-get --print-uris --yes install PACKAGE | grep ^\' | awk -F\' '{print $2}' > PACKAGE.txt will also generate a list of packages you need. you can then wget -l PACKAGE.txt to get them.
[20:45] <blizzkid> nikrud: the cd is fine, I installed ubuntu from it
[20:45] <noodlesgc> danad yes, but you still need the package lists :)
[20:45] <_Drax> How normal is it to get lower network speeds with SSL enabled and you use the lowest cipher (56bit) 3-4% cpu usage, and get barely 2MB/s, and if I use the highest cipher aes256 (80% cpu usage) I get around 6MB/s ?!!
[20:46] <danand> noodlesgc - think synaptics generates a bash script - no good for windows
[20:46] <nikrud> blizzkid not talking about the quality of the cd, but that it is identified as a source
[20:46] <cookie> hello
[20:46] <danand> noodlesgc - package lists?
[20:46] <cookie> which file should I edit for ftp welcome screen
[20:46] <cookie> motd is just for ssh welcome screen
[20:46] <blizzkid> nikrud: that's exactly the problem, it fails to mount the cd
[20:46] <blizzkid> although it IS mounted
[20:46] <Smegzor> found one!  filelight ^^
[20:47] <noodlesgc> danad when you hit reload or you type sudo apt-get update, apt-get downloads lists of ~23,000 packages. A fresh ubuntu install does not have these lists
[20:47] <Scunizi> ouch.. I just discovered that I have two active mounted swap partitions.. If I unmount one will the system hic-up?
[20:48] <cookie> hello 22:46:51 <cookie> which file should I edit for ftp welcome screen
[20:48] <cookie> 22:46:59 <cookie> motd is just for ssh welcome screen
[20:48] <blizzkid> noodlesgc: isn't there a way to import that list from someone else?
[20:48] <danand> noodlesgc - gotcha ....think theres a way to update those lists with this method ... wait one
[20:49] <captainm> Scunizi, I think the safest method is to boot into a live-cd and remove one swap partition from fstab
[20:49] <cookie> hello guys
[20:49] <noodlesgc> blizzkid theoretically you could get each list file one-by-one. or you could get them off another ubuntu install. but they are online and, so the computer must have internet access to get them
[20:49] <memstat> c0ld : copy the live cd
[20:50] <cookie> What file should I edit for ftp welcome message
[20:50] <cookie> motd is just for ssh
[20:50] <Scunizi> captainm, ok.. thanks.. I had thought of just commenting it out in fstab then rebooting.
[20:50] <tole> ethan961, i want it with all the apps.
[20:50] <pulpfiction> cookie, .welcome?
[20:50] <blizzkid> noodlesgc: and if I mount the iso, is there a way to put that in sources.list?
[20:50] <nikrud> Scunizi set swapoff /dev/device  , then do the unmount and fstab edit
[20:51] <nikrud> Scunizi erm, except for the umount
[20:51] <captainm> Scunizi, that's even better ;) Don't know why I didn't think of that
[20:51] <cookie> pulpfiction: yes...the message that greets you when you connect to the ftp server
[20:51] <Scunizi> nikrud, better!  thanks to both of you.. captainm
[20:51] <noodlesgc> blizzkid the theoretically yeah, but i dont know how
[20:51] <danand> noodlesgc - apt-get --print-uris update. copy unpack and rename the Sources files in /var/lib/apt/lists.
[20:51] <senorpedro> hi folks
[20:52] <Scunizi> nikrud, of course when done.. swapon? /dev/device?
[20:52] <nikrud> Scunizi if you want that one back, yes.
[20:52] <noodlesgc> danand yes that works, but you still need internet
[20:52] <izzy_>
[20:52] <Scunizi> nikrud, thanks
[20:52] <senorpedro> one question: in my logout menu i have neither a shutdown nor a reboot entry, only hibernate and sleep mode. how can i make the shutdown and also the reboot entry appear??
[20:53] <danand> noodlesgc - yes. You'll need to run wget on a machine with internet access :)
[20:53] <rufus_> how do I run command in ubuntu without a terminal? is it f4 or somethin?
[20:54] <nikrud> rufus_  alt-f2
[20:54] <nikrud> rufus_ gotta be a gui command, mind
[20:54] <rufus_> yeahm compiz
[20:54] <unop> nikrud, gotta?  :)
[20:54] <unop> are you sure? :>
[20:55] <nikrud> unop well, for all normal user purposes yes ;p
[20:55] <unop> nikrud, well, isn't "sudo updatedb" for normal user purposes? :p
[20:55] <spotter> anyone have an idea on how to disable touchpad in X when using w/ a real mouse?
[20:55] <ktheory> Hi there. I'm trying to get eth0 to show up on an i386 (Dell XPS 410) in Ubuntu 6.06 LTS...
[20:55] <ktheory> I just did a clean install, and running ifconfig only show lo, no eth0 :-(
[20:55] <ktheory> When I run lspci, I see "Ethernet Controller: Intel Corporation: Unknow device 104b (rev2)".
[20:55] <ktheory> I tried installing the e1000 and e100 kernel modules (sudo modprobe e1000; sudo modprobe e100), but running lspci still shows the Ethernet Controller as an "unknown device", and ifconfig only show the loopback interface.
[20:55] <ktheory> Note that the network card used to work in ubuntu 7.10, but we'd like to run 6.06 on this machine (a staging machine) since we're running 6.06 on our production servers
[20:55] <izzy_>
[20:55] <FloodBot3> ktheory: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:55] <ktheory> Any ideas?
[20:55] <pulpfiction> cookie, i meant, isn't there a file named .welcome?
[20:55] <nikrud> unop nah, that's an admin function :)
[20:55] <captainm> senorpedro, have you installed kde by any chance?
[20:56] <fbc> In dos the command line parameters were $1 $2.. and so on. what are they in BASH?
[20:56] <g0th> hi
[20:56] <nikrud> unop but, let me see you run sudo updatedb from alt-f2 (using gksudo something just before is cheating)
[20:56] <rufus_> i enabled wobbly windows, theyre not working
[20:56] <gpm> fbc: not $1?
[20:56] <poseidon> does ubuntu come with git repository?
[20:56] <unop> nikrud, ohh, i dont have an alt+f2 .. which is why i was asking ;)
[20:57] <Seveas> !info git | poseidon
[20:57] <fbc> gpm,  I haven't tried...
[20:57] <unop> fbc, they are $1 $2 in bash -- and iirc, they are %1 %2 etc in dos
[20:57] <gpm> fbc: that's the best way to learn
[20:57] <g0th> Right now firefox seems to be completely frozen and the firefox window looks all grey (including the window decoration). I'm running compiz 3d desktop. Any ideas about what is going on or how to fix it? This happens quite often....
[20:57] <gpm> fbc: yeah, i am pretty sure they are $1...
[20:57] <fbc> unop, oh,, yeah htat's right
[20:57] <gpm> g0th: killall firefox-bin
[20:57] <fbc> unop, been so long I had forgotten..
[20:57] <gpm> g0th: it is frozen
[20:58] <g0th> I have to correct myself: the window has a "grey touch" but it is not all grey
[20:58] <senorpedro> captainm, yes, of course
[20:58] <g0th> gpm: yes I know but then my download is broken
[20:58] <gpm> g0th: the program froze
[20:58] <g0th> gpm: hmm when does this happen?
[20:58] <unop__> fbc, they are $1 $2 in bash -- and iirc, they are %1 %2 etc in dos
[20:58] <gpm> g0th: so restart it...
[20:58] <El1> Hi guys, recently my system has been running stuck quite often, and I was wondering if there was a way to make ubuntu log every important thing that happens so I can find out what's causing the hangups
[20:58] <captainm> senorpedro, and gnome?
[20:58] <senorpedro> in fact, i'm running kubuntu with ubuntu-desktop separately installed
[20:58] <g0th> gpm: it happens all the time is that normal?
[20:58] <captainm> senorpedro, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=416887&highlight=kdm+gdm try post #3
[20:58] <neopsyche>  can anyone tell me how to create a shortcut for a program ?
[20:58] <memian> goth: it happens to me sometimes, i'm suspicios of non-free-flush plugin
[20:58] <gpm> g0th: no, it isn't.
[20:59] <g0th> hmm ok that's probably it
[20:59] <kindofabuzz_> what's the command to view all users?
[20:59] <senorpedro> captainm, thx sir, you're a true hero ;)
[20:59] <unop__> neopsyche, where do you want the shortcut?
[20:59] <g0th> it usually happens when I view veoh movies
[20:59] <Xang> kindofabuzz: who
[20:59] <Scunizi> kindofabuzz_, who
[20:59] <dnyy> i got disconnected, did anyone answer my question? :X
[20:59] <gpm> what are veoh movies?
[20:59] <fourthdimension> neopsyche, drag the program into the terminal, then paste that command into a new launcher
[20:59] <kindofabuzz_> oh ok
[20:59] <cyclonut> does anyone here play world of warcraft?
[20:59] <gpm> !anyone
[20:59] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[20:59] <cyclonut> and if so, did the 2.4 patch cripple performance?
[20:59] <googlah> hello all, anyone know where to download the alpha 6 release? :p
[20:59] <El1> lol gpm
[20:59] <kindofabuzz_> no i mean all users? not just users loged on
[20:59] <gpm> El1: indeed
[20:59] <Xang> kindofabuzz: more /etc/passwd
[21:00] <gpm> o/o all
[21:00] <azexian> cyclonut:  yep
[21:00] <neopsyche> unop__ i want the shortcut on my top bar on gnome
[21:00] <fourthdimension> drag the shortcut up there
[21:00] <madman91> hey guys
[21:00] <g0th> gpm: flash movies on www.veoh.com
[21:00] <fourthdimension> or "add launcher to panel"
[21:00] <madman91> is it possible to have multiple filesystems on one partition?
[21:00] <cyclonut> Azexian - so its not just me.
[21:00] <El1> Is there any way how I can log whatever's being printed in the main terminal? (the one on alt+ctrl+F1)
[21:00] <sarah____> hey guys, is it possible to setup my own pop3 email account on ubuntu?
[21:01] <unop_> madman91, err, no
[21:01] <neopsyche> its ok..
[21:01] <neopsyche> thanks guys
[21:01] <fourthdimension> use ">> logname.txt"
[21:01] <neopsyche> i figured out how to make a launcher :-)
[21:01] <captainm> googlah, the Beta is here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=416887&highlight=kdm+gdm (and #ubuntu+1 is meant for questions about is ;))
[21:01] <fourthdimension> that'll output the screen to a logfile
[21:01] <cyclonut> azexian, that is a relief - I dropped massively. do you think a new wine will fix it, or will we need another patch from WoW?
[21:01] <El1> ok fourth
[21:01] <memian> madman91: you can define a loop back device, like one file holding all file tree
[21:01] <g0th> mdaman91: truecrypt allows a hidden filesystem eg
[21:01] <El1> thx for the info
[21:01] <fourthdimension> no problem
[21:01] <captainm> googlah, http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.10/ is the right link
[21:01] <madman91> g0th: yeah, if truecrypt does it, can i?
[21:01] <madman91> memian: ?
[21:01] <azexian> cyclonut: I played it with both cedega and wine back in the day, and found wine to be the better one, do you mean your framerate has dropped?
[21:01] <g0th> well there are other projects
[21:01] <madman91> brb
[21:02] <g0th> but why not simply create a file and mount it loopback?
[21:02] <pulpfiction> is there any better gui tool to test regexp than "visual regexp"?
[21:02] <cyclonut> azexian, aye, framerate took a 20% hit from the last patch they just released
[21:02] <pulpfiction> nothing wrong with it, just wondering if there's anything newer
[21:02] <googlah> captainm: thanks, but i was looking for hardy. 8)
[21:02] <fourthdimension> lol
[21:02] <fourthdimension> it's right on the homepage
[21:03] <memian> madman91: you can make a file, say disk.ext2 on ext3 filesystem. and mount disk.ext2 as another dirctory.
[21:03] <captainm> googlah, whoops, haven't read the site
[21:03] <azexian> cyclonut: that's unfortunate, have you tweaked it at all? I found that playing with things such as video settings (using the add-on to allow you to do this without scrash) I could get a fair framerate
[21:03] <googlah> lol, i thought it was a banner fourthdimension. :)
[21:03] <cyclonut> azexian, granted, 20% on my machine is only about 5fps. It changes the gameplay from tolerable to torturous
[21:03] <fourthdimension> :)
[21:03] <Itaku> how do i symlink
[21:03] <madman91> memian: but can i filesystem it?
[21:03] <cyclonut> azexian, I'll look for that add-on. However, with this new patch (and latest wine) you can adjust things without crashes :)
[21:03] <azexian> cyclonut: well there is a lot of tweaks you can do to make that go up, or it could be the last patch just reset your video settings?
[21:04] <cyclonut> azexian, in-game settings are the same. Perhaps my custom settings in config.wtf got nuked
[21:04] <jhoward> hi
[21:04] <Goliath23> hi.
[21:04] <jhoward> where is the "Ubuntu Device Manager"
[21:04] <hacked_kernel> Itaku: "ln",  try "man ln"
[21:04] <fourthdimension> googlah, here's the link: http://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/8.04/
[21:04] <jhoward> it used to be in System > Administration in the former releases
[21:04] <googlah> any improvements on 8.04 than 7.10, you think? yeah, i found it
[21:05] <Goliath23> I just received a notice about ending support in dapper (6.10) .. so I followed the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgrades
[21:05] <fourthdimension> thought you would.
[21:05] <Goliath23> but sudo do-release-upgrade gives: No new release found
[21:05] <FYI> I need to create an ERD/ERM... any programs for linux?
[21:05] <Flare183> !hardy | Goliath23
[21:05] <ubotu> Goliath23: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[21:05] <unop_> jhoward, alt+f2 -- type in hal-device-manager
[21:05] <fourthdimension> that's  abig jump from 6.10.  i'd just do a clean install
[21:05] <FYI> should i just do it by hand w/ OO.org draw
[21:06] <Goliath23> Flare183: I have a dapper server system here...
[21:06] <memian> madman91: hmm, i guess i don't really understand your need. but let's say you have an ext3 filesystem on one partition. and you want to try reiserFS without changing disk records. you can make one file on ext3 filesystem. and mount that file as a disk (loop back device) on let's say /mnt/reiser. you can google for loop back device for more information.
[21:06] <unop_> FYI, what are ERD/ERM -- not all of us are bright, you know? :)
[21:06] <FYI> entity relationship diagram/model
[21:06] <WindowSmasher> !slab
[21:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about slab - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[21:06] <FYI> unop_^^
[21:07] <cyka> hey am trying to get a game called soul reaver going via wine
[21:07] <cyka> any ideas?
[21:07] <WindowSmasher> Can anyone assist me in getting the search feature into the slab-gnome-menu?
[21:07] <Goliath23> oh, actually dapper is 6.06
[21:07] <Scunizi> cyka, try #winehq
[21:07] <Goliath23> so I have 6.06 here
[21:07] <Flare183> !edgy | Goliath23
[21:07] <jhoward> where is the "Ubuntu Device Manager"
[21:07] <ubotu> Goliath23: Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy Eft) was the fifth release of Ubuntu. Upgrading to Edgy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades - Downloading: http://us.releases.ubuntu.com/6.10/ - Release Notes: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyReleaseNotes
[21:07] <unop_> FYI, you can use dia -- it draws diagrams that can help -- might be very suitable for complex entity relationships -- have a look
[21:08] <Goliath23> I guess 6.04 continues to be supported then, since it's LTS
[21:08] <Flare183> Goliath23: yes that is correct
[21:08] <FYI> unop_:thanks, I will look into that
[21:08] <Goliath23> okay, fine!
[21:08] <unop_> jhoward, alt+f2 -- type in hal-device-manager
[21:08] <unop_> jhoward, ^^ that is the device manager used by gnome
[21:08] <fourthdimension> goliath, I'd still upgrade.  lots of good stuff in the newer releases that'll make it worth your while

[21:12] <Peter-> Hi, Could someone help me with urban terror?
[21:13] <captainm> deagle, Try creating a boot partition at the beginning of the disk.
[21:13] <un0p> jhoward, see this -- http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1021/1154642079_bc465355bb.jpg

[21:14] <oxigen> un0p: for a different project
[21:14] <deagle> captainm: but i had grub setup (hd0,0)
[21:14] <j85wilson> Ok, so I wanted some packages that are available in Sid, but not in ubuntu.  I added the sid repos to my sources.list, and installed the packages and their dependencies.  I no longer want them.  Having removed the sid repos, is there an easy way to revert all installed packages to the latest version available from the ubuntu repos, and remove those that are not available at all?
[21:14] <captainm> poseidon, system > appearance and www.gnome-look.org
[21:14] <danand> poseidon - System -> Preferences -> Appearances - then themes tab
[21:15] <deagle> captainm: that when it used to give me error 17, now after moving the linux partition to hd0 instead of hd1 is when i get error 18 :S
[21:15] <Xang> poseidon: System->Preferences-.Appearances.
[21:15] <HopsNBarley> amenado, i haven't waited very long (-;   what timeout should i expect?
[21:15] <un0p> oxigen, hmm, not really sure
[21:15] <Malik_> my ubuntu installation keeps freezing
[21:15] <Peter-> No-one cant help me on Urban Terror problem?
[21:15] <amenado> HopsNBarley-> on a regular stock install, umm about 10 mins
[21:15] <captainm> deagle, hd0 is bigger then than hd1 isn't it?
[21:15] <tomytvout> hi all i am tryin to have picture from pc to tv i am readin google but i can not get it to work any help
[21:16] <deagle> captainm: both 250gb
[21:16] <Leechzilla> I type sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start but nothing happens. It just takes me to the next prompt without doing anything
[21:16] <un0p> j85wilson, that was a really stupid thing to do -- there is no easy way out of this but to reinstall
[21:16] <HopsNBarley> amenado, ouch.
[21:16] <artenius2> I had to reboot earlier after a 7days up and now when I boot into ubuntu my resolution is horrible (640X350) and it won't let me change it. Any ideas what caused this or how I can fix it?
[21:16] <amenado> HopsNBarley-> how about also trying netcfg/disable_dhcp=true ?
[21:16] <AnthraxDream> How I get sound?
[21:16] <amenado> then you use a static ip address
[21:16] <deagle> captainm: xp in hda1 (now apparently lost after trying to install again on a different partition)
[21:17] <fourthdimension> malik, did you get your problem fixed?
[21:17] <j85wilson> un0p: I doubt that... if nothing else, I can write a script to go over all the packages, check for the current available version, and compare it to the installed version, and take appropriate action.  I just wanted to know if apt could do this automagically.
[21:17] <captainm> deagle, error 18 means that the BIOS is unable to start executing the kernel because the kernel is not located within the block it can access at boot up time.
[21:17] <HopsNBarley> amenado, i'm setting up an install network where we will want to do several boxes at once.
[21:17] <Xang> artenius2: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[21:17] <neopsyche> when a guide tells me to 'uncomment' a line .. does that mean remove the HASH symbol?
[21:17] <tomytvout> hi all i am tryin to have picture from pc to tv i am readin google but i can not get it to work any help
[21:18] <un0p> j85wilson, ubuntu is not debian and the inverse is also true -- you could try reinstalling all the installed packages with something like this -- sudo apt-get install --reinstall $(dpkg -l | cut -c 3-30)
[21:18] <captainm> deagle, so making a boot partition at the beginning of the disk is the best option.
[21:18] <kesi> hi all, silly question but it's driving me nuts.  I am working with an external drive and in the terminal window everything is highlighted in bright green so I can barely read it.  Any way to turn this off?
[21:18] <FreeNod1> hi is there an ubuntu server channel?
[21:18] <amenado> HopsNBarley-> okay, and what issues are you having?
[21:18] <deagle> captainm: which would mean data loss? :( which tool is it for recreating partitions without losing data that i can run off of live cd?
[21:18] <deagle> captainm: it's been a while since i used linux :(
[21:19] <Xang> kesi: What terminal are you using?
[21:19] <amenado> FreeNod1-> what issues are coming across?
[21:19] <gumpish> gparted can resize some kinds of partitions...
[21:19] <HopsNBarley> amenado, I can't get rid of the "configure the network" -> "please enter the hostname for this system" dialog box.
[21:19] <propdude2000> deagle: that tool would be gparted. it runs off a live cd
[21:19] <un0p> j85wilson, and don't count on the version numbers to ascertain whether they belong to ubuntu or debian -- you can have a package with the same version in both but the contents could be different
[21:19] <deagle> captainm: or better yet, how can i burn a cd from within live cd?
[21:19] <artenius2> Xang, any idea what would cause this?
[21:19] <Leechzilla> I type sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start but nothing happens. It just takes me to the next prompt without doing anything
[21:19] <kesi> Xang, I think it's the default Gnome Terminal prog
[21:19] <AnthraxDream> HOW FOR TO GET SOUND?!
[21:19] <AnthraxDream> Sorry caps lock
[21:19] <tomytvout> hi all i am tryin to have picture from pc to tv i am readin google but i can not get it to work any help
[21:19] <kesi> Xang, but I can't find any setting under appearance or prefs to turn this off
[21:20] <Xang> kesi: You could always try and export a different term type.
[21:20] <Xang> kesi: export TERM=vt100
[21:20] <captainm> deagle, do you have two cd drives?
[21:20] <deagle> lol
[21:20] <tripps> ok since last reboot, my sd card on my shittle no longer works. could someone help me diagnose?
[21:20] <terminal> when i open windows partition in ubuntu i got error d folder content coulldnot b displayed
[21:20] <Gupp> hrm i have a problem with ubuntu 7.10 jeos that i cant enable eth0 for some weird reason
[21:20] <tripps> s/shit/shut ;)
[21:20] <captainm> deagle, you could maka a bootable flashdrive and burn a cd from that
[21:20] <bastid_raZor> !sound > AnthraxDream
[21:20] <deagle> captainm: that's what i was thinking of. installing the spare cd burner i have
[21:20] <kesi> Xang, I may be dumb, but that didn't do anything.. was there more I needed to do?
[21:21] <amenado> HopsNBarley-> i have not done a major rollout like yours, but i would think the oem-install script has those configuration for setting a temp hostname and modifiable upon user logging on?
[21:21] <terminal> when i open windows partition in ubuntu i got error d folder content coulldnot b displayed
[21:21] <Xang> kesi: Now try whatever command you were using..ex. ls,
[21:21] <j85wilson> un0p: since it is only a few packages, I'm not nearly as worried as you seem to be...
[21:21] <kesi> Xang, same thing
[21:21] <deagle> captainm: tell me something, does the new 8.04b installer lose data when adjusting withing the free space of a partition?
[21:21] <yeonhoo_> how can I treat ESC key ?? i want to press ESC key and print ESC key in DEC form
[21:21] <terminal> when i open windows partition in ubuntu i got error d folder content coulldnot b displayed
[21:21] <Lokii-> terminal, your not using samba i hope ?
[21:21] <j85wilson> I'm nearly certain that all the version numbers did change, and nothing I upgraded to sid packages is essential stuff
[21:22] <Lokii-> samba == the suck
[21:22] <deagle> captainm: the second install i did seems to have corrupted my C drive (ntfs) when i resized it to fit ext3 within its free space
[21:22] <HopsNBarley> amenado, i'm attempting this through a preseed file.
[21:22] <terminal> lokii, r u mean samba is not working
[21:22] <kesi> Xang, it's true on my windwos partition as well if that helps
[21:22] <Lokii-> i mean samba has a son
[21:22] <yeonhoo_> how can I treat ESC key ?? i want to press ESC key and print ESC key in DEC form. but its not working. when I press ESC key, system does not recognize as valid key i think
[21:22] <FreeNod1> hi anybody tried a remote desktop
[21:22] <un0p> j85wilson, i'm not worried -- you should be, if you should have any troubles from here on, it's going to be a tough life troubleshooting them -- and the official verdict is that support ceases to exist once you have done something like that
[21:22] <Lokii-> and its much better
[21:22] <FreeNod1> ????
[21:22] <yeonhoo_> what I have to do?
[21:22] <HopsNBarley> there is tons of documentation on how to do this, it is just not working - only the hostname - for me.
[21:23] <un0p> !debian | j85wilson
[21:23] <ubotu> j85wilson: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[21:23] <Gupp> hrm i have a problem with ubuntu 7.10 jeos that i cant enable eth0 for some weird reason
[21:23] <FreeNod1> FreeNod1 :(
[21:23] <captainm> deagle, dataloss shouldn't happen. You can make a seperate boot partition without data-loss
[21:23] <captainm> deagle, there are some good tutorials around.
[21:23] <terminal> lokii, solution plzzzzz
[21:23] <FreeNod1> darksky0 lol
[21:23] <j85wilson> thanks, un0p.  I know this.  Once again, nothing essential was touched, only a few packages, some rather esoteric programs and their supporting libraries.
[21:24] <Lokii-> freenod1 you mean using rdp protocal to control a linux desktop  in the same manner that you would a windows serve r?
[21:24] <terminal> lokii, solution plzzzzz
[21:24] <FreeNod1> Lokii-: yes!! :D
[21:24] <amenado> HopsNBarley->  d-i netcfg/get_hostname string unassigned-hostname
[21:24] <amenado>   and d-i netcfg/get_domain string unassigned-domain  dont work for you?
[21:24] <Lokii-> terminal i read it the first time please be patient
[21:25] <deagle> captainm: thanks for your help bro, gparted is kinda guiding me around a bit
[21:25] <ompaul> Lokii-, sounds like a job for krdc
[21:25] <terminal> lokii, k
[21:25] <FreeNod1> Lokii-: ^^''

[21:30] <hischild> numus, yes i've been successful in running an ATI Radeon X1300 512Mb
[21:30] <amenado> HopsNBarley-> how are you specifying the preseed file during install?
[21:30] <artenius2> deagle, that has no effect
[21:30] <captainm> deagle, It's worth a try.
[21:30] <salah> With apache 2.2

[21:31] <terminal> lokii, gutsy
[21:31] <hischild> numus, i installed the fglrx drivers (aka the restricted drivers) and it worked. Driver in xorg should be fglrx. What is the problem you're having?

[21:32] <caesa1> help! I changed my screen resolution to 1280*1024 upsidedown in Hardy Heron, and now all I can see is the mouse. How do I change the resolution in a different init?
[21:32] <xopher> Lokii-, did you see my last line? My front speakers are the only ones I can get sound from, what do I need to do? ツ
[21:32] <yowshi> amenado: though actually telling me the lines and commands and not just giving me a script to download form someplace would be helpful
[21:32] <deagle> gregbrady: http://www.linux-magazine.com/w3/issue/69/Command_Line_dd_and_mkisofs.pdf
[21:32] <numus> hischild the resolution wont go to 1680x1050 no matter what i do to xorg or any other settings.. and compizfusion wont run
[21:32] <artenius2> all I did was reboot and now it;s running in a horrible resolution, and there are no other choices but this one
[21:32] <Lokii-> terminal, append your fstab with lines like this: //<IP_ADDRESS>/SharedDocs /media/winshare cifs guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8,codepage=unicode,unicode  0  0
[21:32] <Lokii-> and share it on your windows machine
[21:32] <Lokii-> save the fstab
[21:32] <Lokii-> and mount -a
[21:32] <amenado> yowshi-> it is helpful for you to also understand scripting, so learn scripting at same time
[21:32] <kindofabuzz_> will someone connect to ftp://kindofabuzz.homelinux.net/ user: ftp paswword: pass port 21  and let me know if it works, and hack it if you can and let me know about any security flaws?
[21:33] <numus> hischild can i pm you?
[21:33] <AnthraxDream> fix my sound?

[21:33] <deagle> captainm: wish me luck
[21:33] <gregbrady> deagle, there is no graphical version?
[21:34] <Leechzilla> I type sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start but nothing happens. It just takes me to the next prompt without doing anything
[21:34] <HopsNBarley> amenado, via the pxelinux default kernel command line - i know this works cause i'm getting my partitioning, etc.
[21:34] <tole> un0p, the updating of the package list..does it happen online?
[21:34] <captainm> Good luck deagle!
[21:34] <Gupp> someone knows how to change mac address so eth0 will be recognized?  becouse now it is different from  the .vmx, or is the change generated to static enough?
[21:34] <amenado> yowshi-> lest you showed your effort of following the tutorial, you are not getting much help ..
[21:34] <norty> Question: I just installed compiz, I've made some changed but I dont see them working, do I have to restart?
[21:34] <un0p> tole, have you enabled all the repositories?
[21:34] <yowshi> amenado: if the HOWTO isnt helpful then obviously i have no other choice but to ask somewhere else. well this is somewhere else amd i am asking
[21:34] <amenado> HopsNBarley-> but how exactly? what options did you put in the command line?
[21:34] <artenius2> so, no one can tell me why this my resolution is messed up all of a sudden?
[21:34]  * Lokii- runs away too many diff people talking
[21:34] <tole> un0p, umm...i'm in suse 10.3 ryt now as i dont know how to get irc in ubuntu.where is it located?

[21:37] <yowshi> i have done the fdisk -l and the sudo gedit and i am ready to edit the fstab
[21:37] <hischild> Lokii-, that also depends on the rest of the hardware and there also seems a random factor involved as my hardware seems to be inconsistently being recognized between installs.
[21:37] <istredd> and there is nvidia driver unchecked
[21:38] <amenado> HopsNBarley-> you have added  priority=critical ?
[21:38] <Gupp> captainm i did changed it and rebooted but it keeps saing no such device
[21:38] <Leechzilla> I type sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start but nothing happens. It just takes me to the next prompt without doing anything
[21:38] <yowshi> amenado: but i have no idea what to add. it seems to be talking about vfat in this part or something and i dont have vfat i need ntfs info
[21:38] <Lokii-> hischild sounds like you might have a faulty connection or failing trace on your mobo you might wanna have it cxhewcked or buy a new one as there dirt cheap anyways
[21:38] <istredd> just check it and if you have drivers downloaded it will start using it,if not, aptitude will install it for you
[21:38] <guestbuntu55> Where can I find a driver for an ATi RV370 [radeon X300]
[21:38] <HopsNBarley> amenado, sounds interesting - where does this go?  at the end of the d-i line for get_hostname?
[21:38] <hischild> Lokii-, my hardware is just fine, thank you
[21:38] <un0p> Leechzilla, it means all is good -- continue on to the next step
[21:38] <Gupp> in the config file i set auto lo eth0 and iface inet static
[21:38] <Lokii-> LoL don't get testy
[21:38] <amenado> yowshi-> lets step back..can you do this manually? and not through /etc/fstab  ?
[21:38] <beex> can I have beagle/tracker search within one folder, recursively?
[21:39] <amenado> HopsNBarley-> on same kernel command line
[21:39] <Leechzilla> un0p: what next step?
[21:39] <mrpockets> so i updated something for the Screenlette apps
[21:39] <HopsNBarley> amenado, okay, lemme try that.  thanks for the suggestion!!!
[21:39] <mrpockets> and now i've got two icons in the sys tray
[21:39] <yowshi> amenado: yeah i can do it manually. mount /dev/drive /where/iwantit
[21:39] <un0p> Leechzilla, i dunno, whatever it is you need to do after starting apache
[21:39] <captainm> Gupp, as far as I know that should do it. I don't know where the problem is.
[21:39] <guestbuntu55> I get a error message when trying to enable desktop effects saying: Desktop Effects can not be enabled.
[21:39] <mrpockets> and i cant close one without closing both, but they're the same thing..
[21:39] <Leechzilla> un0p: It's not starting, is what I'm saying
[21:39] <beex> whenever I use the search funcion in nautiuls is searches *everything*, not the files in that folder
[21:39] <beex> it there a way to make it act differently?
[21:40] <amenado> yowshi-> now i want you think for now, everything that is done automatically can be done manually.. so the steps you have performed manually should translate to an automated task
[21:40] <un0p> Leechzilla, sudo /etc/init.c/apache2 restart
[21:40]  * Lokii- used a pen and paper to remeber wherte things are LoL
[21:40] <ritalin> y0 i installed kde4 on ubuntu yet i dont see a session for it in gdm. how can you add that to GDM?
[21:40] <Leechzilla> un0p: It doesn't do anything
[21:40] <un0p> Leechzilla, does it even say anything?
[21:40] <amenado> yowshi-> what was the first thing you've done before even knowing to mount the specific partition?
[21:40] <Leechzilla> un0p: Nope
[21:40] <un0p> Leechzilla, is apache even installed?? I really wonder
[21:40] <yowshi> amenado: yeah but when i look in fstab none of the present entries look like my mount command. they all have other stuff added to them
[21:40] <guestbuntu55> I get a error message when trying to enable desktop effects saying: Desktop Effects can not be enabled. Im on Ubuntu 7.10 Gusty Gibbon. My graphics card is an ATI Radeon X300 (RV730)
[21:40] <hischild> ritalin, if you click on sessions on the left down menu you can select kde.
[21:41] <Leechzilla> un0p? Yeah it's installed
[21:41] <ritalin> it isnt there
[21:41] <ritalin> installed kde4 base
[21:41] <ron> with the new dual core cpu's should i install the 64 bit version of ubuntu ?
[21:41] <Sexy_Girl> Hi
[21:41] <amenado> yowshi-> well if you have read the man pages for fstab or mount, it would have given you a clue
[21:41] <BobTheBruin> I was wondering if someone could help me.  I have a gutsy machine that now will not boot up.  I get the error message "Starting up...  [1.080000] Kernel panic - not syncing: VPS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)

[21:41] <tomytvout> hi anyone who can help me out with tvout from pc to tv
[21:41] <un0p> Leechzilla, that's not normal, if i were you, i would reinstall apache -- sudo apt-get install --reinstall apache2
[21:41] <hischild> ron, do you have more then 4gb of ram or have a specific need for 64bit programs? if that's so, then use 64bit. Else use the 32bit
[21:41] <Leechzilla> un0p: I did that too, still no luck
[21:42] <bastid_raZor> ron if you have 64 bit processors
[21:42] <ron> cool thanks
[21:42] <yowshi> amenado: i looked at the man pages for mount it was totally confusing i know none of the terms used in it and it left me dumber then before i had read them
[21:42] <guestbuntu55> ok
[21:42] <un0p> Leechzilla, have you tried browsing to http://localhost ?
[21:42] <magnetron> just ask, tomytvout, if anyone knows the answer they will answer

[21:45] <Leechzilla> un0p: no error messages there
[21:45] <BobTheBruin> Can anyone help with my gutsy machine that now will not boot up.  I get the error message "Starting up...  [1.080000] Kernel panic - not syncing: VPS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
[21:45] <Kadotus> And I think I've messed up my configurations completely too.  And i cant get my java to work.
[21:45] <yowshi> amenado: you seem to be saying that if i dont understand some device and my only manual is in japanese then i shou;ld keep reading the manual until i understadn japanese
[21:45] <deamoon> guys do u know how to instal creative X-FI sound card?
[21:46] <hischild> RabidWeezle, sorry, i'mi in a loss there then ... try using nautilus and select them all
[21:46] <amenado> yowshi-> are you japanese?
[21:46] <Kadotus> garferi: Ati Radeon 9200 [RV280]
[21:46] <hischild> BobTheBruin, did you do anything out of the ordinary before you rebooted?
[21:46] <tomytvout> ok i have plugged in my tvout cables on my pc and now i go nvidia-settings i can not get twinview or tvout from there i hear only sound no picture picture is blue  anyone who can help me
[21:46] <BobTheBruin> not really
[21:46] <yowshi> amenado: NO and you seem to be missing the point completly.
[21:46] <BobTheBruin> it was just a reboot
[21:46] <bastid_raZor> !java > Silencedbear
[21:47] <yowshi> amenado: the how to's only help if you understasnd what your reading. same with the man pages. if i understand not what i am reading it is useless to try reading it
[21:47] <hischild> yowshi, he meant if the install you're on is in japanese .. if it's an english install you can use man fstab to read an english manual.
[21:47] <garferi> Kadotus, did you have better video performance before you installed fglrx?
[21:47] <pike_> tomytvout: youll  probably need to pastebin your xorg.conf file
[21:47] <gregbrady> Anyone else with an easy method to copy a DVD?

[21:47] <XORAND> hi all.  I installed ubuntu 7.10 and tried to connect to the internet with the vodafone-card-wireless-driver.run file (14Mb).  I loaded the RSA vodafone defaults.  The program runs with my e620 recognized and connects to Vodacom.  I tried to surf with firefox, but firefox says i'm not connected :( Even though the light on my modem shines constant blue and the program says I'm connected.  How...
[21:47] <hischild> BobTheBruin, there are a lot of htings that are just a reboot. Did you install/remove any packages?
[21:47] <XORAND> ...do I get firefox to see that I'm connected?
[21:47] <yowshi> hischild: no i was making a point that amenado seems to be telling me to go read the man pages until i understand the terms in it. even though i dont understand the terms in the man pages
[21:47] <RabidWeezle> looks to be it's "for f in *.zip; do unzip "$f"; done"
[21:47] <amenado> yowshi well its hard to get to your thick head, am suggesting there are other ways, like books on linux? google ? tutorials..they provide ample explanations
[21:47] <BobTheBruin> I am not the only one who uses it, but I am guessing it was after an update
[21:48] <unop_> Leechzilla, what does this command spit out?  ps aux | grep -i apache
[21:48] <zeptit> Been thinking about installing ubuntu on my computer, atm i have 2 disks with NTFS will i have any problems with these in ubuntu?
[21:48] <guestbuntu55> answer my question when ready
[21:48] <yowshi> hischild:  in other words my only manual may as well be in japanese and he is telling me to read it until i know japanese
[21:48] <Kadotus> garferi, with the new card? It didn't work out at all before i installed fglrx. Old videocard was integrated Via unichrome (which sucked)
[21:48] <hischild> yowshi, if you ask us what the terms mean we can explain them. However we can't hold your hand and do it every step by the way.
[21:48] <garferi> XORAND, Where to connectedd?
[21:48] <guestbuntu55> If you need my question again, let me know
[21:48] <XORAND> vodacom, i think
[21:48] <bobbyd> hi
[21:48] <guestbuntu55> hi

[21:48] <numus> ok when i tried to load into ubuntu it loads into busybox instead of ubuntu..
[21:48] <Flare183> !hi | bobbyd
[21:48] <ubotu> bobbyd: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[21:48] <Leechzilla> unop_: Nothing. Apache isn't running, manb
[21:48] <XORAND> garferi: vodacom, i think

[21:49] <captainm> BobTheBruin, maybe a problem with grub.conf
[21:49] <guestbuntu55> What driver? where do I get drivers?????????
[21:49] <BobTheBruin> think so?
[21:49] <captainm> BobTheBruin, http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2857087.html
[21:49] <bastid_raZor> wow guestbuntu55 you sure made an ass out of yourself in #compiz-fusion
[21:49] <unop_> Leechzilla,  how about this ?  find /etc/apache2
[21:49] <Flare183> guestbuntu55: on the ati siet
[21:49] <garferi> XORAND, if you connected to the internet you will see this because the start page in firefox loaded
[21:49] <BobTheBruin> lemme look at what it says
[21:49] <Flare183> site*
[21:49] <sstoveld> Svenstaro, want to fix another problem? :D
[21:49] <amenado> yowshi-> btw, i did not learn linux overnight, it took time, some i dont get still, i chug along, reading stuff on google, hoping a better explanations
[21:49] <numus> anyone know why busybox is loading up?
[21:49] <pike_> zeptit: note the installer will automatically resize whichever partition if you want it to and install ubuntu to a ext3 partition in the freespace it creates
[21:49] <Flare183> guestbuntu55: or in the repos
[21:49] <yowshi> hischild: amenado frag this thank you for providing an example of the futility of comming here
[21:49] <hischild> BobTheBruin, it might be, as captainm said, a grub.conf error (or menu.lst) .... do you have a rescue disc at hand?
[21:49] <zeptit> Also ive just tried out linux once before. If i install a program are they hard to remove with files all over or just one directory?
[21:49] <XORAND> garferi: but the vodafone software says i am connected
[21:50] <Leechzilla> unop_: It lists a bunch of files. Want me to pastebin them?
[21:50] <XORAND> garferi: firefox defaults to a local page

[21:51] <ubotu> Piero_Scaruffi: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » or use the "gmountiso" package - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.

[21:53] <pike_> tomytvout: you using a regular old tv or an hdtv? 720p or 1080 or what?

[21:53] <tomytvout> old tv
[21:53] <Leechzilla> unop_; uh, how do I do that?
[21:53] <guestbuntu55> Flare183: where is the "repo"

[21:54] <ubotu> If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a »
[21:55] <Flare183> !adeptcrash > sstoveld
[21:55] <Leechzilla> unop_: Hmm, it works now. But I gotta do this everytime I start the system?
[21:55] <Dr_willis> tomytvout,  be sure you dont have a audio cable going into a RCA video in, in addation to the Svideo In.. that can cause issues..
[21:55] <Flare183> guestbuntu55: what are you trying to install?
[21:55] <BobTheBruin> can I take the menu.lst file from my ubuntu laptop or would it be completely different?
[21:55] <Michael> I need some help please
[21:55] <Michael> ??
[21:55] <Lokii-> guestbuntu55, if your unsure of the package name then you can find it using apt-cache search <search_string>
[21:55] <guestbuntu55> A driver for An ATI RV370 [Radeon X300SE]
[21:55] <richard> How do I get the panel at the bottom of the screen to reappear?
[21:55] <Dr_willis> BobTheBruin,   It will be different. but you can use it as a basis for making the new one.
[21:55] <sstoveld> Flare183, thanks, i will try it now
[21:55] <Flare183> !patience | Michael
[21:55] <ubotu> Michael: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[21:55] <tomytvout> no the cables are plugged in as they have to be
[21:56] <Flare183> sstoveld: ok
[21:56] <guestbuntu55> Flare183: A driver for An ATI RV370 [Radeon X300SE]
[21:56] <amenado> Flare183-> seems a missing step there? once fuser finds out the process using the lock, dont he need to kill it or remove the lock?
[21:56] <hischild> BobTheBruin, it'd be most usefull if you chroot into your enviroment of a rescue disc and then grub-update or update-grub ... whichever is the one
[21:56] <captainm> BobTheBruin, Could you boot into the rescue cd and pastebin menu.lst/ grub.conf?
[21:56] <Michael> E: jde: el subproceso post-installation script devolvió el código de salida de error 1 why is happening to me with Ubuntu
[21:56] <Flare183> amenado: i think so
[21:56] <BobTheBruin> is rescue the same as the live cd?
[21:56] <Dr_willis> tomytvout,  try removing the rca cables and double check. If just the svideo is funny colored..  You might have a pin bent/broke, or a bad cable or other issues HW wise.
[21:56]  * Flare183 yells in the flood of questions
[21:56] <Lokii-> Micheal ask your question don't just ask for help[ if someone knows the answer they will pipe up if not then there obviously not gonna bother in most casres
[21:56] <unop_> Leechzilla, I really suspect that your /etc/init.d/apache* file is corrupt -- you might like to purge and reinstall that package -- sudo sh -c "aptitude purge $(dpkg -l | grep -i apache | cut -c 3-30); aptitude install apache2"
[21:56] <hischild> BobTheBruin,  sudo aptitude install pastebinit &&  cat menu.lst | pastebinit (Please provice link in channel)
[21:56] <Flare183> guestbuntu55: one sec
[21:56] <guestbuntu55> kk
[21:57] <amenado> Flare183-> yeah, so somehow correct that ubutu paste, add a removal of lock
[21:57] <Flare183> ok
[21:57] <Flare183> brb
[21:57] <Jaymac> Michael: try typing sudo apt-get install -f
[21:57] <BobTheBruin> where do I run that from hischild, the livecd?
[21:57] <tomytvout> no dr_willis the issuses is my nvidia settings i dunno how to configure it from there
[21:57] <HopsNBarley> amenado, here goes....
[21:57] <sstoveld> Flare183, thanks, worked like a charm, will i have to do this again or should this be fixed for now?
[21:57] <richard> I've got Ubuntu on my laptop. I can't seem to get the panel at the bottom to reappear. How do I get it to start up?Thnx
[21:57]  * amenado crosses fingers for HopsNBarley
[21:57] <Dr_willis> tomytvout,  theres the nvidia control panel tools. try 'nvid<tab>' in the terminal to see what you have installed.
[21:57] <hischild> BobTheBruin, correct, from inside the chrooted enviroment. If you come back here once you are in the live cd we'll help you through.
[21:58] <BobTheBruin> I am in
[21:58] <BobTheBruin> type that line in?
[21:58] <hischild> BobTheBruin, ok. then you execute the follwoing command:
[21:58] <hischild> sudo aptitude install pastebinit &&  cat /boot/grub/menu.lst | pastebinit (Please provice link in channel)
[21:58] <Flare183> sstoveld: fix from now on unless dpkg crashes again
[21:58]  * Lokii- sugests opening termina'l
[21:58] <HopsNBarley> amenado, you are a genius!  5 cups of ubuntu!
[21:58] <sstoveld> Flare183, thanks a lot
[21:58] <hischild> captainm, can you take BobTheBruin  from here?
[21:58] <sFEARs> is there a way i can edit the applications menu as a directory structure... drag & drop and such?
[21:58] <Flare183> sstoveld: no problem

[21:58] <pike_> tomytvout: what is the result of this? http://www.pastebin.ca/957316 ?
[21:59] <captainm> hischild, probably
[21:59] <ompaul> !test
[21:59] <ubotu> Failed.
[21:59] <amenado> HopsNBarley-> eh man, i just read the manual...i did not invent it..hehehe
[21:59] <tomytvout> here is my lspci http://www.pastebin.ca/957285
[21:59] <Leechzilla> unop_: Okay done, but still the same. that init.d thing won't start it
[21:59] <Flare183> ompaul: soo many questions
[21:59] <Dr_willis> tomytvout,  to enale my tv OUT for my nvidia cards, there was often a few little things i had to do dependign on which card.  On one machine. I had to be sure to have the tv conected when i booted up. OR you can enable twinview and enable the clone output option, Or you could use twinview and use the tv as a 2nd monitor.
[21:59] <HopsNBarley> amenado, i google the crap out of this and found nothing -where were you looking?
[21:59] <unop__> Leechzilla, let's try that command again albeit a little differently ..
[21:59] <Lokii-> wow i think my eyes are too sore for this atm
[21:59] <Lokii-> bbl all
[21:59] <Lokii-> help then with what i can
[22:00] <tomytvout> thats my xorg.conf pike
[22:00] <amenado> HopsNBarley-> here  https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/installation-guide/i386/preseed-using.html#preseed-loading
[22:00] <unop__> Leechzilla, sudo sh -c "aptitude purge $(dpkg -l | grep -i apache | cut -c 3-30); aptitude clean; aptitude install apache2"
[22:00] <captainm> BobTheBruin, have you chrooted in your environment already?
[22:00] <Flare183> guestbuntu55: umm ok goto ati.com and find the driver that is on that site
[22:00] <Dr_willis> tomytvout,  if the tv is just showing blue - thats because its getting no video signal, its showing a blank screen instead of a staticy screen.  :)
[22:00] <guestbuntu55> I tried. I couldn't find it.
[22:00] <Dr_willis> !tvout
[22:00] <ubotu> For help with enabling the TV-Out, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOutNewbieEdition (Nvidia cards) or http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Tvout (ATI cards, *untested*)
[22:00] <HopsNBarley> amenado, well, the "you may want to add" is a bit soft, as it doesn't work without it (-;
[22:01] <Flare183> guestbuntu55: let me get the link for you
[22:01] <guestbuntu55> Flare183: Ok
[22:01] <Leechzilla> unop__: still the same
[22:01] <amenado> HopsNBarley-> oh, i'll make a note of that.. when you say it does not work without it, you mean it is not automated?
[22:02] <HopsNBarley> amenado, yes - i should have been more explicit.
[22:02] <unop__> Leechzilla, what happens when you just do this?  /etc/init.d/apache2
[22:02] <amenado> HopsNBarley-> thanks for the feedback, i'll make a note to myself when i do a netboot rollout also
[22:02] <HopsNBarley> amenado, given this discovery, i may try initrd preseeding.  i have to add my network card to the initrd anyway, so while it's up on the rack... (-;
[22:02] <sstoveld> hey guys, is skype compatible with ubuntu?
[22:02] <Leechzilla> unop__: nothing

[22:03] <Flare183> guestbuntu55: not yet kinda hard to find since it has been discontinued
[22:03] <amenado> HopsNBarley-> and they keep coming up with new things..haha..its a never ending learning process
[22:03] <BobTheBruin> I type in  sudo aptitude install pastebinit &&  cat /boot/grub/menu.lst | pastebinit (Please provice link in channel)

[22:08] <Proximity> I use blogger

[22:08] <Xteven> I'm looking for one
[22:08] <guestbuntu55> ready to help
[22:08] <Xteven> I prefer one written in a scripting language like python
[22:08] <Proximity> The web based one works fine for me
[22:08] <Svenstaro> sstoveld, you still here?

[22:09] <Piero_Scaruffi> wrong channel
[22:09] <Piero_Scaruffi> i thought i was in ubuntu-nl
[22:09] <sstoveld> Svenstaro, just fixed another problem thanks to Flame183, pc kept crashing had to use the command from !adeptcrash
[22:09] <Piero_Scaruffi> honest mistake
[22:10] <BobTheBruin> hischild: working on it still, thanks for checking in
[22:10] <Svenstaro> sstoveld, are you good now?
[22:10] <Slart> Piero_Scaruffi: no worries
[22:10] <Svenstaro> heho hischild :)
[22:10] <hischild> Svenstaro, aah a familiar face. How's things going out there?
[22:10] <sstoveld> Svenstaro, yeah im doin pretty good now, although im wondering where to change my mic settings such as mic boost and volume
[22:10] <captainm> hischild, he's chrooted in the old environment and update-grub has some problems with permission denied and "cannot determine root device, this error is probably caused by an invalid /etc/fstab"
[22:10] <JJ1> hey there guys. I need a sfv checker but I cant find any. can someone help me out?
[22:10] <sstoveld> Svenstaro, and thanks again for all that help earlier, i would be completely lost haha
[22:10] <Svenstaro> hischild, ive just woken up with an empty stomach, now I've eaten too much and my stomach hurts :(
[22:10] <hischild> captainm, i see. Did he mount the /dev and /proc from the live env?
[22:11] <Slart> JJ1: md5sum works nicely for a terminal.. or you're looking for something with a gui?
[22:11] <Slart> JJ1: I think there's a similar app for crc32
[22:11] <JJ1> slart - im looking for something with a guy. for easy access
[22:11] <hischild> Svenstaro, tutut you should know better then that =p some milk will do that some good, it'll relieve the pain. Don't drink it cold though, a bit warm helps. (no joke)
[22:11] <JJ1> Slart -  more of a "drag+drop" kind of app if u know what i mean ^_^
[22:12] <captainm> hischild, probably not :P
[22:12] <Slart> JJ1: I understand.. let's see what synaptic says...
[22:12] <HopsNBarley> amenado, hey, thanks for the help - have a great afternoon!
[22:12] <captainm> hischild, but now it's my time to leave. It's 11:15 pm here and time for bed for me.
[22:12] <Svenstaro> sstoveld you see the volume icon top right of your screen? rightlick and choose volume panel, should give you a few sliders to play around with
[22:12] <BobTheBruin> hischild, it is mounted /media/disk
[22:12] <HopsNBarley> amenado, if you ever need help with embedded linux - drop me a line over in #oe (-;
[22:12] <hischild> captainm, alright. From what i can remember, it'll help if he exits the chroot env, and then executes --> mount -t proc none /media/disk/proc && mount -o bind /dev /media/disk/dev
[22:12] <BobTheBruin> thanks for the help captainm,
[22:13] <Svenstaro> hischild, thing is ive eaten cereals with milk :(
[22:13] <hischild> captainm, alright. I'll see what we can do from here on.
[22:13] <captainm> BobTheBruin, hischild Good luck!
[22:13] <hischild> Svenstaro, warm milk or cold? warm relieves pain.
[22:13] <Lokii-> you could try running moosfv under wine
[22:13] <kindofabuzz_> Svenstaro: how'd that install go this morning?
[22:13] <Lokii-> might work
[22:13] <neopsyche> in this guide http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/install-samba-server-on-ubuntu/ does uncomment mean remove the ; ??? or the # ??
[22:13] <sstoveld> oh ok i see, thanks
[22:13] <BobTheBruin> hischild, should I do that?
[22:13] <artenius2> I've switched monitors and everything was fine until I rebooted, I managed to get the resolution mostly sorted but some things still don't work, when I open a terminal, it's just a white window. How can I re-autodetect my settings so ubuntu recognizes this monitor and things get back to normal?
[22:13] <Svenstaro> kindofabuzz_, sstoveld's ones?
[22:13] <artenius2> neopsyche: the #'s
[22:14] <kindofabuzz_> sstoveld: well i guess i can ask you, how'd the install go?
[22:14] <hischild> BobTheBruin, you'll have to exit your chroot env by typing exit. Then you will have to mount 2 things for me. Your ubuntu install is mounted at /media/disk?
[22:14] <Svenstaro> hischild, cold mild im afraid :(
[22:14] <hischild> Svenstaro, drink half a glass of warm milk with sugar. You'll feel better
[22:14] <BobTheBruin> yeah
[22:14] <Slart> JJ1: hmm.. didn't find anything but terminal based apps.. at least not in the repos.. perhaps there is something else out there
[22:14] <BobTheBruin> hischild: yeah
[22:14] <kindofabuzz_> Svenstaro: yeah ssto's
[22:15] <evilgnome> hello all. firstly, is aptitude supposed to support color output for command-line use (because it's all plain for me)? and secondly, is there a way to stop aptitude output from cutting lines off when they're "too long"?
[22:15] <JJ1> Slart - yeah... well im going to continue searching for it then ^_^ thanks
[22:15] <hischild> BobTheBruin, alright. Then type the following:  mount -t proc none /media/disk/proc && mount -o bind /dev /media/disk/dev

[22:15] <sstoveld> kindofabuzz_, haha well, it was very long, and thank god for Svenstaro, he stayed with me for about 10 hrs straight fixing my problems, apparently my ati radeon x800GTO2 is NOT good for ubuntu :D, but i seem to be all good now
[22:15] <Lokii-> and it works a whole lot better
[22:15] <unop> Leechzilla, save this script here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/61061/  as /tmp/apache2 -- chmod +x /tmp/apache2; sudo /tmp/apache2 restart

[22:15] <neopsyche> Lokii-, how do i get that sorted out?
[22:15] <Onyx> Is anyone in here a CISSP?
[22:15] <unop> Leechzilla, and pastebin the output you get
[22:16] <kindofabuzz_> nice, good job Sven and sstoveld
[22:16] <Svenstaro> :)
[22:16] <unop> Onyx, please head to #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:16] <Lokii-> neopsyche,  i'll give you few example and that should explain it 100%
[22:16] <sstoveld> kindofabuzz_, haha, all goes to sven, lifesaver
[22:16] <neopsyche> Lokii-, ok
[22:16] <BobTheBruin> hischild: I ran it and it said "only root can do that".   I am looking for a software tuner that can pick up my usb preamp, connected through jackd?
[22:17] <kindofabuzz_> hehe
[22:17] <artenius2> when I open the terminal under accessories, it's just a blank white window, is there another way I can get in a terminal without rebooting into safe mode?
[22:17] <kindofabuzz_> play some skynard!
[22:17] <hischild> BobTheBruin, alright that is true. Do sudo -i to change to root and try again.
[22:17] <hischild> BobTheBruin, you should notice, those are 2 commands after each other.
[22:17] <hischild> artenius2, that is a terminal.
[22:18] <artenius2> hischild: I know, but I can't really do anything in it when it's a blank white window
[22:18] <Lokii-> neopsyche,  sudo nano /etc/fstab
[22:18] <BobTheBruin> hischild: according to mtab, none is already mounted to /media/disk/proc
[22:18] <numus> can someone help me.. i am trying to install teh ati drivers but i get   xorg-driver-fglrx: Depends: libstdc++5 (>= 1:3.3.4-1) but it is not installable
[22:18] <Lokii-> neopsyche,  then at the bottom of the file add line like this:

[22:19] <tole> un0p, i tried..i've given up.ubuntu is kind of hard for me..maybe because i'm used to suse..or i don't know.
[22:19] <Lokii-> add the extra / at the beggining of those 2 lines
[22:19] <hischild> BobTheBruin, alrigth that leaves only the dev one --> mount -o bind /dev /media/disk/dev
[22:19] <j3kyl1> what do i need bottomline to play dvds? i've tried a few things...
[22:19] <kindofabuzz_> artenius; you using emerald or metacity?
[22:19] <Leechzilla> unop: It says "illegal option - "
[22:19] <artenius2> kindofabuzz_: gnome
[22:19] <freebird> vlc will play dvds
[22:19] <Lokii-> artenius sudo apt-get install metacity
[22:19] <sebas891> hey folks, anyone familiar with network booting and tftpd... a thin client is give me tftp "open time out" ...
[22:19] <BobTheBruin> hischild: done
[22:19] <Lokii-> sudo metacity --replace&
[22:20] <artenius2> Lokii-: I can't type in a terminal, lol, and I don't want metacity
[22:20] <kindofabuzz_> artenius just alt f2 then type in metacity --replace
[22:20] <hischild> BobTheBruin, then chroot back into your env and try update-grub again
[22:20] <Lokii-> then install emeralfd
[22:20] <freebird> are you using ltsp for tftpd
[22:20] <Lokii-> and replace metacity with emerald on both those lines
[22:20] <kindofabuzz_> you have metacity if you're just running stock gnome
[22:20] <j3kyl1> freebird : i tried vlc.. it never brings up the dvd. sometimes it just quits the program after trying..
[22:20] <tole> unop, ubuntu.com won't work for me,so i can't use irc there.can you just tell me how to install the repos and the kde?
[22:20] <artenius2> ok, that did nothing
[22:21] <j3kyl1>  freebird: so im looking at downloading codecs... but i really don't know what to do
[22:21] <artenius2> nm, now I have a terminal I can see
[22:21] <artenius2> thanks
[22:21] <kindofabuzz_> artenius ok alt f2 compiz --replace
[22:21] <kindofabuzz_> yeah there ya go
[22:21] <unop> Leechzilla, sorry, my bad, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/61062/
[22:21] <Jack> wow nice. can anyone see this?
[22:21] <Svenstaro> sstoveld have you tried games so far?
[22:21] <BobTheBruin> hischild: looks good
[22:21] <freebird> don't think it is codec issue if vlc wont work
[22:21] <Lokii-> neopsyche,  did you get the just of cifs ?
[22:21] <BobTheBruin> hischild: reboot?
[22:22] <hischild> BobTheBruin, can you pastebin that output for me?
[22:22] <sstoveld> Svenstaro, nope, not yet
[22:22] <j3kyl1> freebird : any quick suggestions to try?
[22:22] <BobTheBruin> hischild: it is on a different computers
[22:22] <sstoveld> Svenstaro, im just copying some of my music from my brothers computer over the network
[22:22] <BobTheBruin> hischild: I can type the good parts
[22:22] <freebird> whoever was asking about network booting...much help at ltsp
[22:22] <hischild> BobTheBruin, alright. Did it say it wrote a menu.lst and/or grub.conf?
[22:22] <sstoveld> Svenstaro, what is the default media player btw? or do i need to install one now?
[22:23] <unop> tole, you can install the xchat irc client -- sudo aptitude install xchat -- repositories howto - http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/sources  -- updating packages -- sudo aptitude update
[22:23] <freebird> j3kyll: can you read data from the dvd at all?
[22:23] <orudie> hey all, what is the difference between libgd2-xpm and libgd2-noxpm ?
[22:23] <Svenstaro> sstoveld totem is installed by default, you can use that, but I recommend VLC, theres nothing VLC cant play
[22:23] <unop> orudie, the former has support for xpm images, the latter doesnt
[22:23] <Nicholas> hi all, its a biggest channel, so... does anybody knows open-source audio player for WINDOWS?
[22:23] <geokok> Hi, how can I change the default application (sound juicer) that starts when I insert an audio cd?
[22:23] <hischild> BobTheBruin, if it said something along those lines you're good to go for another try at rebooting.
[22:23] <freebird> vlc for windows
[22:24] <BobTheBruin> hischild: found: /boot/grub and /boot/grub/menu.lst     no splash, skipped..... found the kernels and updated /boot/grub/menu.lst
[22:24] <unop> Nicholas, offtopic
[22:24] <Nicholas> audio?
[22:24] <pike_> Nicholas: /join #ubuntu-offtopic   personally i use mplayer for windows
[22:24] <orudie> so libgd2-xpm will include both ?
[22:24] <hischild> BobTheBruin, good enough. see what it does on reboot
[22:24] <Leechzilla> unop still the same
[22:24] <Lokii-> neopsyche, once you have those similar lines added to your fstab
[22:24] <Nicholas> : /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:24] <Lokii-> just mount -a
[22:24] <Svenstaro> Nicholas, as far as I know amarok runs on windows
[22:24] <core_> Can someone assist me with setting up a dual screen, when i setup my monitor to dual screen it moves my login screen of center and makes my second monitor when i place my mouse over there scroll. and it won't drag a window to it either.
[22:24] <Lokii-> and all those shares will mount
[22:24] <hischild> Nicholas, video? try vlc
[22:25] <unop> Leechzilla, sorry dude, i'm out of energy right now -- too late in the evening -- perhaps someone else knows
[22:25] <Nicholas> no, audio
[22:25] <Svenstaro> core_ ATI?
[22:25] <core_> Svenstaro, no intel
[22:25] <Svenstaro> core_, configuring intel dualheads is maschochistic :(
[22:25] <Leechzilla> unop, k thanks for the help
[22:25] <Lokii-> i noticed that it doesn't like diff sized monitors
[22:25] <Lokii-> as i have
[22:25] <core_> Svenstaro, ?
[22:25] <Lokii-> so i went back to 1 screen
[22:25] <Svenstaro> core_ your best bet is searching the ubuntu wiki
[22:26] <core_> Svenstaro, thank you
[22:26] <kindofabuzz_> how do i mv a folder? same as file?
[22:26] <BobTheBruin> hischild: worked like a charm!
[22:26] <core_> Svenstaro, you know where I can learn how to customize my gnome to look like it came from one of those hacker movies?
[22:26] <hischild> BobTheBruin, good to hear :-)
[22:26] <Svenstaro> Did anybody ever wonder why only the Intel/ATI folks ever have problems? :P
[22:26] <BobTheBruin> hischild: any idea how menu.lst can get screwed up?
[22:26] <Lokii-> mv -Rf folder/ /path/to/the/newfolder/
[22:26] <orudie> how can i get libgd2-xpm tlak to php ?
[22:26] <kindofabuzz_> core_: gnome-look.org
[22:26] <Svenstaro> core_, can you be a little
[22:26] <Svenstaro> core_, can you be a little more specific
[22:26] <hischild> BobTheBruin, uhm ... couple dozen ways? though they're most rather unlikely to happen
[22:27] <owh> I started in 2006 with a tar-ball install of Eclipse and eventually found that it was also available as a package. While my tar-ball install is now ancient, it still works much better than the package. Examples: php editor crashes, no updates, system editor fails. Is this "normal" or should I throw away my tar-ball + configs, and reinstall the package?
[22:27] <hischild> BobTheBruin, might be an update failing to install as it should.
[22:27] <core_> Svenstaro, you know when you watch the movies they show the linux desktop with a huge terminal there, maybe one menu and a really cool system monitor?
[22:27] <BobTheBruin> hischild: that is my guess.... is there is fund that I can donate to for the volunteers here?
[22:27] <BobTheBruin> what a great service you all do
[22:27] <hischild> BobTheBruin, try !helpersnack ;-)
[22:28] <Svenstaro> core_, what you want is most likely the quake style dropdown linux console, its a fullscreen terminal activated by a keypress :)
[22:28] <Lokii-> core_ may i pm you?
[22:28] <BobTheBruin> !helpersnack
[22:28] <ubotu> Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie!
[22:28] <b0x> lol
[22:28] <core_> Lokii-, sure, im not registerd with irc so i don't know if it will work.
[22:28] <Kadotus> Hi, can anyone help a linuxnewbie with a videocard problem
[22:28] <core_> Lokii-, lemme register real quick.
[22:28] <sebas891> resolved!
[22:28] <BobTheBruin> that looked like a newb thing to do
[22:28] <nextstep> Hello everyone I am having an issue with my wireless network being locked to 1mb ... can anyone help ?
[22:28] <Lokii-> i am tho
[22:28] <hischild> Kadotus, if you tell us the problem with your videocard we might be able to help
[22:28] <kindofabuzz_> Lokii-: invalid option R
[22:28] <JarG0n> Svenstaro> is there such a terminal ?
[22:29] <Svenstaro> yup
[22:29] <b0x> i dident know u could lock your Network card to a certain speed
[22:29] <hischild> BobTheBruin, not really. I personally appriciate the gesture as it's a way of saying thanks =)
[22:29] <JarG0n> Svenstaro> What's the package?
[22:29] <Svenstaro> JarG0n google for linux quake style console
[22:29] <Svenstaro> dunno
[22:29] <JarG0n> cool
[22:29] <evilgnome> is aptitude supposed to support color output for command-line use (because it's all plain for me)? and is there a way to stop aptitude output from cutting lines off when they're "too long"?
[22:29] <Kadotus> I put a new videocard (ATI Radeon [RV280], and installed the drivers, but now everything works very slow
[22:29] <Kadotus> ~280 fps
[22:29] <hischild> kindofabuzz_, what command? if you're trying to do it recursively, use -R. Also, for moving a folder you don't need -R
[22:29] <b0x> latest drives Kadotus
[22:29] <b0x> ?
[22:29] <BobTheBruin> hischild: well thank you very much then.  As I get better, I will do my best to come back and help others
[22:29] <b0x> try rolling them back?
[22:29] <neopsyche> Lokii-, how does that allow all windows computers on my network to connect to ubuntu machine?
[22:30] <kindofabuzz_> kk
[22:30] <Lokii-> oh
[22:30] <Kadotus> b0x: dunno, How do I check?
[22:30] <Kadotus> b0x: Being a complete rookie..
[22:30] <Lokii-> thought you wanted to mount the windows boxen to your linux machine
[22:30] <hischild> BobTheBruin, you're more then welcome. Most of what i know comes from this channel ;-)
[22:30] <b0x> im abit of a rookie myself, but if u install the drivers off a CD it should have a verson number with it
[22:30] <sstoveld> hey guys, is there a hoykey to take a screenshot?
[22:30] <b0x> go on radeon site and check to see if there the latest
[22:31] <neopsyche> Lokii-, i want to be able to access drives on both machines
[22:31] <neopsyche> Lokii-,vice versa
[22:31] <hischild> sstoveld, try the print screen button. You'll love it.
[22:31] <freebird> printscreen?
[22:31] <sstoveld> print screen works ubuntu too? cool
[22:31] <geokok> How can I change sound juicer with asunder when inserting an audio cd?
[22:31] <b0x> h4x0r
[22:31] <Lokii-> yeah its the one abopve the insert butten that i want to cut from my keyboard
[22:31] <sstoveld> does alt-printscreen work for single window screenshots?
[22:31] <Kadotus> b0x, I installed drivers via synaptic. And somebody else told me that with linux I shouldn't download anything from there.
[22:32] <Kadotus> I mean ati:s website
[22:32] <freebird> try and let me know...have tried it myself
[22:32] <b0x> oh ok
[22:32] <b0x> thay probly dont support linux?
[22:32] <freebird> haven't tried it myself I mean
[22:32] <neopsyche> Lokii-, i just wanted to know .. does the uncomment mean remove ; ?
[22:32] <Svenstaro> sstoveld, recapping all you've seen so far and comparing it with windows, how do you like ubuntu so farß
[22:32] <sebastorama> I want to upgrade my ubuntu from 7.10 to the new beta. How can I do this using apt?
[22:32] <hischild> sstoveld, there's an option you can use in compiz. It lets you hold down a key combination and then drag a window. That window will be captured so you can even select a small partion of it.
[22:32] <Kadotus> b0x, hmm, dunno.. googling didn't help me.
[22:32] <hischild> !hardy | sebastorama
[22:32] <ubotu> sebastorama: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[22:32] <freebird> yes alt-printscreen does get active window
[22:33] <sstoveld> Svenstaro, im loving it
[22:33] <Lokii-> kadotus .. whoever you were talking to hasn't got a clue what there talking about since synaptics is simple a gui to apt which is the officially supported binaries for the os
[22:33] <Svenstaro> cool stuff
[22:33] <b0x> might have to ask someone else mate, id suggest rolling back your drivers to wat thay was before if the newer ones arnt an improvement
[22:33] <hischild> Kadotus, you should not use envy or automatix. Those are evil.
[22:33] <nextstep> Hello everyone I am having an issue with my wireless network being locked to 1mb ... can anyone help ?
[22:33] <Kadotus> hischild: I don't even know what they are. :D:D
[22:33] <Svenstaro> nextstep, you mean netspeed?
[22:34] <hischild> Kadotus, when you see someone suggest it, put them on ignore ;-)
[22:34] <hischild> !automatix > Kadotus
[22:34] <Kadotus> :P
[22:34] <hischild> !envy > Kadotus
[22:34] <nextstep> svenstaro:  no the actual card is set to 1mb .. and will not go to 54mb
[22:34] <hischild> Kadotus, see pm from ubotu.
[22:34] <sstoveld> Svenstaro, for some reason, when the computer creates a new item on the desktop, for some reason it goes on my secondary monitor's desktop instead of primary's. is there a way to change that?
[22:34] <Kadotus> k
[22:34] <geokok> how can I change a default app (sound juicer --> asunder) ??
[22:34] <Svenstaro> !evil
[22:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about evil - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[22:34] <sstoveld> Svenstaro, like when i take a screenshot and save it, it saves to my secondary monitor

[22:35] <arnath> hi, maybe not the best place, but does anyone know any fun boardgames that can easily be played between a linux computer and a windows computer? :)
[22:35]  * b0x smacks artenius2 with a red Swingline stapler
[22:35] <Svenstaro> sstoveld, the problem to begin with is that physicially your screens are in the wrong position
[22:35] <teo-> hi.. when i am connecting to wireless network with the ndiswrapper and the windows drivers i can join that network.. but when i use bcm43xx module which is completly configurated and it has firmware i cant connect :S why ?
[22:35] <cdleary> how do I create a new gdm session on display 1?
[22:35] <freebird> I like scrabulous...play it before the boys who made it go to jail :-)
[22:36] <sstoveld> Svenstaro, oh i see
[22:36]  * b0x sends some DDoS in freebird's direction

[22:37] <hischild> b0x, try adding nicknames to whoever you're talking to. It makes things a lot easier to read.
[22:38] <Malik_> and now iam not even able to install it
[22:38] <Malik_> either it freezes
[22:38] <dn4ia> Does anyone know of a good video editor in linux that does visuals and audio effects?
[22:38] <hischild> dn4ia, if you're up for some compiling, you can try to use lives.
[22:38] <Malik_> or when it runs it takes me to a black screen
[22:38] <dn4ia> !lives
[22:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lives - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[22:38] <snmpee> (lives sucks)
[22:38] <snmpee> sorry to break it to you
[22:38] <Kadotus> Hmm, let's put it this way: How do I install correct drivers for My new ATI Raden 9200 [RV280] ? :D
[22:39] <sorsis> how to mount .iso as drive without burning it to disk?
[22:39] <Jaffarkelshac> so nautilus is to explorer, what about X or Xserver
