I'm not sure what to do from the initramfs prompt :( sorry
[00:00] <NinjaPlimsoles> cjones: you could sudo apt-get search blabla
[00:00] <Gnea> Bigg400: should work just fine. what vm have you looked at?
[00:00] <cjones> thanksa
[00:00] <Bigg400> Gnea: not sure was thinking VirtualBox
[00:00] <Pelo> Bigg400,  no story, you can run 32bit os on 64 bit machines even virtual ones
[00:00] <swatTX> [FT]Alex: that's what most ppl end up saying. thanks for trying though
[00:01] <Sakkath> danand: maybe it's just this pc. maybe the board/usb port. it gets power, yes, but that doesn't mean data. when i say it works, even w/linux, it was never on this box before.
[00:01] <danand> Sakkath - ahh ok - sorry your problem has me beat - i have a wireless usb mouse on my system and that works fine.... fraid i've kinda run out of ideas on that one
[00:01] <Gnea> Bigg400: haven't used that. vmware is my favorite, though. if you get the workstation you can get a 30-day license and create all of the virtual disks you need, then run/install with vmplayer
[00:01] <kenro> macrobad:  I've never seen the inside of a lappy yet, but have a hard time thinking of something permanently attacted to the MB as a 'card'. Therefore I just refer to it as a network interface device. NID. ;)
[00:01] <danand> Sakkath - that may be the case :(
[00:01] <geek> actually, you can get vmware server
[00:01] <icesword> hi
[00:01] <Sakkath> danand: maybe another port... before i grab a new mouse/try w/same ubuntu cd on another box
[00:01] <geek> which does most of the basics

[00:02] <geek> actually VMware server works fine on a non server, i prefer it for basic stuff more than player
[00:02]  * Sakkath votes for gpm onto livecd for diagnostics/when x doesn't work
[00:02] <soldats> gil: ou may also try #ubuntu-es
[00:03] <kenro> no habla espanol aqui... ingles solomente por favor
[00:03] <Sakkath> not port
[00:03] <Sakkath> meh
[00:03] <macrobad> kenro: :) You may want to have a look here: http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 and also visit #bcm-users
[00:03] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath whats your problem?
[00:03] <gil> hola pelo o alguien en espñol mepueden ayudar a instalar el google earth=?

[00:03] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: a usb wireless mouse is not working at all ;x
[00:03] <xipietotec> how do I force apt to delete something?
[00:03] <gil> hi some body  can helpme  to instal the  google earth.bin
[00:03] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: not even if i cat /dev/input/mice so i conclude it is not xorg
[00:04] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: whats the brand?
[00:04] <apo> gil: chmod +x google_earth.bin; ./google_earth.bin
[00:04] <Pelo> gil, yo no habla espanol,
[00:04] <danand> steven_ - can you pastebin the output of lspci and lshw for me?
[00:04] <gil> i dont  remember because is  bin format
[00:04] <Gnea> well it depends on your application - i've run server 2003 on vmware server and vmplayer and it works fine both ways, but runs a bit smoother in vmware server. YMMV
[00:04] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: lol don't laugh--was father's. it's microsoft. lsusb shows it fine and it works on windows and with every other distribution i've tried. note that i've never used it on this box, windows/linux
[00:04] <prince_jammys> !googleearth | gil
[00:04] <ubotu> gil: Google Earth is now available, for free (only as in price), for Linux, too. To download it see http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html - A package for Ubuntu is available in the !Medibuntu repository
[00:04] <geek> well, if you need to make new VMs server's better. Player uses a newer 'core' tho
[00:04] <NinjaPlimsoles> hmmm whats the deviceID?
[00:05] <Pelo> gil,   put the bin on your desktop ,   open a terminal   cd Desktop , sudo chmod 777 filename.bin ,  ./finename.bin
[00:05] <Gnea> !medibuntu | gil
[00:05] <ubotu> gil: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[00:05] <geek> Sakkath: MS actually sells decent hardware
[00:05] <kenro> macrobad:  error... Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at linuxwireless.org.
[00:05] <gil> can you helpme with that
[00:05] <apo> Pelo: not 777
[00:05] <Sakkath> geek: just the fact that it's microsoft and linux together haha
[00:05] <apo> Pelo: +x
[00:05] <icesword> vmware player cannot create a new virtual disk ,right
[00:05] <gil>  i have the file but i cant install  from  the terminal
[00:05] <Sakkath> geek: in #ubuntu
[00:05] <Pelo> apo,  apo just for the installer file, no biggy
[00:05] <apo> gil: Why not?
[00:05] <apo> gil: What does it say?
[00:05] <Pelo> gil,   put the bin on your desktop ,   open a terminal   cd Desktop , sudo chmod 777 filename.bin ,  ./finename.bin
[00:05] <gil> i did but i cant

[00:05] <apo> Pelo: ... chmod +x
[00:06] <macrobad> *my* link
[00:06] <geek> icesword: thats why recommend server
[00:06] <gil> i have to be the  root?
[00:06] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: whats the device id of your mouse?
[00:06] <icesword> geek, does vmware server make a good memory management
[00:06] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: this is the livecd. /dev/input/mice is the default. i've never used anything else.
[00:06] <geek> icesword: what do you mean by that?
[00:06] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: kernel 2.6?
[00:07] <macrobad> gil: what does it tell you?
[00:07] <Gibb> how do I disable firewire in ubuntu?
[00:07] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: kubuntu 7.10 cd
[00:07] <Pelo> gil,  jsut follow the info I gave you
[00:07] <kenro> macrobad:  Then if not due the devel branch editions I dunno why I can't connect to it.
[00:07] <Docfxit> I would like to find a log that includes a startup script called sharex11vnc . It's not in /var/log/messages
[00:07] <danand> Sakkath - just a quick one - do you have usbmouse in the output of lsmod ie does lsmod | grep usbmouse show up? if not try sudo modprobe usbmouse
[00:07] <Pelo> Docfxit, how about in /var/log/boot ?
[00:07] <macrobad> kenro: try with wget
[00:08] <gil> permiso denegado
[00:08] <icesword> geek, you know,you use virtualbox,if you yo give it 128 m ram,but in fact it will use more than that,open a monitor,you will find there is very few mem available
[00:08] <Pelo> gil, sudo ./filename.bin
[00:08] <gil> i am follow the info but i cant   install the  file
[00:08] <Sakkath> danand: no, it was not loaded by default. seems to make no difference though.
[00:08] <gil> i did
[00:08] <swatTX> Ubuntu is NOT easy to customize! If it wasn't free and my laptop wasn't old I wouldn't continue to try.  VERY FRUSTRATING!
[00:08] <geek> icesword: vmware isn;t too bad
[00:08] <danand> Sakkath - do you have usbhid module loaded too?
[00:08] <dennisonicc> icesword: ofcource it will use more than 128 that amount will be available to the host
[00:08] <swatTX> off to reinstall for the 11th or 12th time
[00:08] <Pelo> gil,  are you the administrator of this computer ? do you have permission to install apps ?
[00:08] <dennisonicc> icesword: sorry to the geust machine
[00:09] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: a quick browse on the net would suggest your mouse will work in Ubuntu
[00:09] <Corty> hi
[00:09] <gil> sudo -s?
[00:09] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: ill just check a bit deeper
[00:09] <Sakkath> danand: yes
[00:09] <Pelo> gil,  no I just mean is this your own computer?
[00:09] <gil> no
[00:09] <icesword> geek, i have tried vmware for a while,it is very good,i even use it to run ubuntu 7.10 in 100m ram,i have 256m in total
[00:09] <gil>  how  i do that
[00:09] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: yes, i've definitely used it on linux before
[00:09] <Alan_M> Swattx, when its stuff your not absolutely sure of what your doing, it can become VERY difficult.
[00:09] <icesword> geek, vmware workstation
[00:09] <Pelo> gil, then you need to ask the person who setup the computer to do it for you
[00:09] <danand> Sakkath - ok, well ...it was worth a go :)
[00:09] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: but not oooboontooo?
[00:09] <gil> i did
[00:09] <Prefix100> If you havnt already, you guys should really try out audio surf
[00:09] <Sakkath> danand: thanks.
[00:10] <Docfxit> Pelo »Nothing is in the boot file
[00:10] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: what would be the diff? it worked on fbsd, fc4, gentoo, knoppix
[00:10] <kenro> macrobad:  Yeah that grabbed...
[00:10] <geek> icesword: server is similar to WS, just uses a slightly older core, and runs headless
[00:10] <Pelo> Docfxit,  you'll have to explore the other ones then
[00:10] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: the kernel
[00:10] <icesword> geek, k,i will try that,it is free,hehe
[00:11] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: well. i've never used 2.6.22 before :P
[00:11] <Docfxit> Pelo » Is there a program that will do a search for a name inside files?
[00:11] <swatTX> Alan_M: thanks for the encouraging words, it's just getting old
[00:11] <steven_> danand: Did you get that?
[00:11] <macrobad> kenro: your firefox must have gone mad! =) Restart it or even clean all the cache, cookies etc... with Ctrl+Shift+Del
[00:11] <kenro> macrobad:  Looking for blogs on GinTama and iD_entity right now.
[00:11] <Alan_M> swatTX, old..but factual.
[00:11] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: yeah, its just one of many things that can go wrong with linux :P give me a minute
[00:11] <prince_jammys> Docfxit: use the command "grep"
[00:11] <gil> how i become to administrator?
[00:11] <danand> steven_ - no - get what?
[00:11] <prince_jammys> Docfxit: grep mystring myfile.txt
[00:11] <apo> gil: sudo -s
[00:11] <Pelo> Docfxit, my guess is yes but I don'T know what it would be,  it's not something I have ever needed to use
[00:12] <steven_> danand: http://pastebin.com/d4cbec106 - I messaged you that.
[00:12] <Pelo> gil,  you need to ask the person who setup ubuntu on the computer
[00:12] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: are you on the live cd now?
[00:12] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: unplugged/plugged in mouse and checked /var/log/messages (expected /var/log/boot for dmesg, empty file?) and it says as /dev/input/input7 wtf?
[00:12] <swatTX> Alan_M: for it to be factual i would expect to learn something IMO, all i get is dead ends and have to do a fresh install
[00:12] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: yes
[00:12] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: i mean /class/input/input7
[00:12] <macrobad> kenro: :) I am not involved in anime. At least, so far! ^^
[00:12] <gil> i did  set up my computer in the terminal  i wrote sudo space -s
[00:13] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: i don't even know what that means.
[00:13] <NinjaPlimsoles> Sakkath, right type this into a term: grep mouse /var/log/dmesg
[00:13] <Alan_M> You kinda are learning something though, linux isnt for the faint of heart sometimes swatTX  :)
[00:13] <[FT]Alex> haha
[00:13] <danand> steven_ - ah ok, unless you are registered with nickserv i don't think you can pm people
[00:13] <steven_> That'd explain it.
[00:13] <danand> steven_ - will take a look now
[00:13] <Alan_M> danand, i believe thats right.
[00:13] <Prefix100> ive had linux for just over a week and personally im very happy with the change, the only issues i hav ecome across are becuase of my human error
[00:14] <[FT]Alex> swatTX what was the command you used to remove the ati drivers? maybe you deleted a module you shouldn't have?
[00:14] <steven_> Thankyyou
[00:14] <apo> gil: So, are you root now?
[00:14] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: what did grep find?
[00:14] <gil> yes
[00:14] <kenro> macrobad:  actually, these are graphic novels or manga. aka Japanese comic books. Not Japanese cartoons. ;) But I'm just being banal right now. :)
[00:14] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: i have no gpm to copy/paste to you. ubuntu has no `nopaste' script. i can get the script and pipe the results to a file and then upload the results?
[00:14] <Alan_M> Prefix100, yeah..some people have no problems with the switch, some do...imo its just experience levels.
[00:14] <Pelo> Prefix100, the first time I tried ubuntu , it took me a week to boot windows back and that was just to get my email infor
[00:14] <apo> gil: Then why does it not work?
[00:14] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: it's just a ruby script... i can scp from my other box via ssh
[00:15] <apo> gil: "It does not work" is not a very descriptive bug report :P
[00:15] <swatTX> [FT]Alex: i was using the gui.. i went System -> Administration ->Restricted Drivers Manager and unchecked the restricted driver
[00:15] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: what in gods name have you done to your machine? lol
[00:15] <macrobad> gil: if you are root, then 'id -u' should give you 0, otherwise you are not.
[00:15] <Sakkath> apo: sounds like what my stepfather says when he says his computer isn't working
[00:15] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: what do you mean? ;x
[00:15] <apo> Sakkath: Indeed
[00:15] <gil> dont worry , only  arrastre (spanish) the file  into a terminal and  worked
[00:15] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: im kidding :P
[00:15] <Prefix100> Alan_M, oh i have had problems, but the support here is just so active that they dont last long, the worst of which would probly be wireless because i installed ndiswrapper when i didnt need to :/
[00:16] <apo> -_-"
[00:16] <prettyricky> Hey guys how dou you open a bin file. I just downloaded Google Earth to my desktop but its a bin file?
[00:16] <kenro> macrobad:  But then, effectual communication -is- predicated on the proper choice of vocabulary, eh?
[00:16] <swatTX> [FT]Alex: before it could finish the screen went blank and I had to power it off (ctrl+alt+SysRq+ various keys)
[00:16] <prince_jammys> apo: he probably wasnt in the directory where the file is
[00:16] <Pelo> gil, you need to rememeber that linux is case sensitive,   File is not the same as file , capital letters count
[00:16] <soundray> prettyricky: don't install that file. Better to get it from medibuntu
[00:16] <apo> prettyricky: cd ~/Desktop; chmod +x filename; ./filename
[00:16] <Alan_M> Prefix100, heh, yeah
[00:16] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: a quick `tail' shows it's low speed uhci_hcd at address 4
[00:16] <soundray> !medibuntu | prettyricky
[00:16] <ubotu> prettyricky: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[00:17] <soundray> prettyricky: bypassing the package manager will only cause you trouble later on
[00:17] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: grep for 'mouse' said something about mac button emulation at /class/input/input0 and said mice: ps/2 mouse device common for all mice
[00:17] <[FT]Alex> swatTX - hmm. tried "modprobe vesa" or something similar? I'm clutching at straws now... does initramfs give you an error?
[00:17] <Prefix100> is there a good irc client for ubuntu?
[00:17] <swatTX> what does "The creation of swap space in partition #5 of IDE1 master (hda) failed" mean? I got the message when trying to do a fresh install (again)
[00:17] <Prefix100> that highlights etc
[00:17] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: i'd say the former information is more useful
[00:17] <hekatontarchos> I'm looking for a copy of ubuntu that I can install to a PPC based computer
[00:17] <[FT]Alex> swatTX - actually, have you tried just typing exit?
[00:17] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: well UHCI would suggest its detecting something....
[00:17] <hekatontarchos> does anyone know where I can find one?
[00:17] <prettyricky> so go to medibuntu?
[00:17] <macrobad> kenro: Well, it is. I just keep confusing manga and anime, and keep being corrected each time. I am wondering why are there so many manga and anime fans in *nix community?
[00:17] <apo> Prefix100: irssi
[00:17] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: another thing is that i don't know if i've ever used usb1 vs the new usb...
[00:18] <swatTX> [FT]Alex: exit sends me right back to the prompt
[00:18] <Pelo> swatTX, means the installer was not able to create your swap partiton
[00:18] <Prefix100> kk ty
[00:18] <apo> macrobad: Why not?
[00:18] <soundray> !ppc | hekatontarchos
[00:18] <ubotu> hekatontarchos: PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ
[00:18] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: lsusb shows it
[00:18] <bruenig> phoenix24: did you figure it out yet?
[00:18]  * Pelo waves to soundray , long time no see
[00:18] <BellaD> no sound after alsa re-install and desktop reinstall
[00:18] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: hmmmmmmmmm
[00:18] <BellaD> who can help restore sound
[00:18] <[FT]Alex> I have dapper on my ibook. the wireless networking was a nightmare :D
[00:18] <hekatontarchos> thanks soundray
[00:18] <phoenix24> bruenig: Nope, was occupied else where.
[00:19] <Pelo> BellaD, check your users permissions see that you are allowed to use sound devices
[00:19] <swatTX> Pelo, does that mean my drive is bad?
[00:19] <macrobad> apo: err... I don't mind! But it seems there is a strong correlation between using *nix and adoring anime.
[00:19] <bruenig> phoenix24: here is a script: http://rafb.net/p/zSS8ip78.html
[00:19] <prettyricky> which package do I get there is a few there in medibuntu
[00:19] <bruenig> phoenix24: execute with whateveryounameit file1 file2 file3 file4 ...
[00:19] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: must be the generic mouse driver not liking your wireless mouse, but i guess you already know that :P
[00:19] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: :(
[00:19] <Pelo> swatTX, try prepartitionning your hdd before starting the installer ,  you can do it from gnome partiton editor in the admin menu of the live cd desktop ,  use manual partitonning during the install to point to the correct partitons
[00:20] <swatTX> Pelo, it shows my HD as unallocated
[00:20] <apo> macrobad: Dunno, you'd have to make a study :P
[00:20] <kenro> macrobad:  Couldn't say, but can guess creative and/or geekfolk people (those who like to share their knowledge with others, whether or not others appreciate it) and puzzlesolvers like *nix?
[00:20] <Pelo> swatTX, it doesn't mean your drive is bad,  it might just be the installer acting up , shit happens on occasion
[00:20] <soundray> prettyricky: there is more than one googleearth package?
[00:20] <[FT]Alex> Pelo wouldn't that kill his partition if it's still around?
[00:20] <NinjaPlimsoles> sakkath: did you note the device ID of your mouse when you lsusb'ed
[00:21] <BellaD> in user menu all options are ok  I am allowed to use sound devices
[00:21] <cpk1> if I am running a network off a linux box and the wired nic is on <IP_ADDRESS> and the wireless is on <IP_ADDRESS> is there a way to get clients to be able to communicate from nic to nic(i think a wins server will fix this?)
[00:21] <prettyricky> well not package but a list. Theres no where in there to download anything
[00:21] <Pelo> swatTX, try doing   5-10 gig for / in ext3 ,  2x RAM for swap in linux-swap,  the rest for /home or how ever you want it ( you absolutely need a /home)
[00:21] <macrobad> apo: kenro: I certainly do. Does it sound like a good thesis topic? ^^
[00:21] <kenro> macrobad:  intelligence is congruant to creativity?
[00:21] <Docfxit> prince_jammys » Tx that did it. It's in /var/log/auth.log
[00:21] <Pelo> [FT]Alex, not sure I get what you are saying
[00:21] <prince_jammys> Docfxit: good
[00:21] <danand> steven_ - run asoundconf list again. the output of that you said was Intel. Copy that output exactly into the following command - asoundconf set-default-card name_you_got_from_asoundconf_list_command :)
[00:22] <soundray> !repos > prettyricky, please read the factoid (private message) on how to enable repositories
[00:22] <prettyricky> ok ty
[00:22]  * NinjaPlimsoles gets frustrated
[00:22] <Lasivian> I have a driver problem. The wireless driver I need doesn't work on the current kernel. Not sure where to go to try and fix it, or get a new one written. Any ideas? thanks
[00:22] <steven_> danand: done
[00:22] <Pelo> NinjaPlimsoles,  it happens to the best of us
[00:22] <cpk1> Lasivian: what chipset do you have?
[00:22]  * NinjaPlimsoles sings Its the Final Countdown by Europe
[00:23] <BellaD> pelo any other Ideas?
[00:23] <[FT]Alex> Pelo - me either :D his partition should still be there I think, since he hasn't touched it. but if gparted thinks his hard drive is empty, then it will overwrite his existing partition if he makes any changes
[00:23] <macrobad> kenro, at least I haven't seen any chavs watching anime. ;)
[00:23] <danand> steven_ - any sound?
[00:23] <steven_> Nope. =(
[00:23] <kenro> macrobad:  define chav...
[00:23] <IanLiu> How do I install latest Pidgin on Ubuntu?
[00:23] <Prefix100> theres a well good forum topic for sound
[00:23] <Pelo> BellaD, just the basic trouble shooting stuff, check connecitons,  check power,  check in menu > system > prefs > sound, make sure your device is selected for all events,   type alsamixer in the terminal make sure all the levels are up and not muted
[00:24] <IanLiu> is there a way to install cutting-edge apps?
[00:24] <NinjaPlimsoles> kenro: likes Ford Escorts and listens to Trance cd's
[00:24] <bruenig> phoenix24: report back on success/failure if you would
[00:24] <matttail> Im having a problem with my keyboard and afresh install of ubuntu.  I cant type apostrophe or double quotes.  How do I fix this?
[00:24] <bruenig> IanLiu: use a different distro, ubuntu is meant to be way behind
[00:24] <prince_jammys> kenro: a chav is like a brit hipster
[00:24] <danand> steven_ - ok try restarting alsa then try again. to restart alsa type sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[00:24] <macrobad> kenro: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chav Urbandictionary is good too.
[00:24] <BellaD> I have done all that

[00:24] <IanLiu> bruenig: Thats for stability purposes?
[00:25] <Pelo> nickrud,  welcome to computer time

[00:25] <thesurvivorman> getdeb has pidgin 2.4
[00:25] <Pelo> BellaD, any special chipset ?
[00:25] <nickrud> !stable
[00:25] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[00:25] <bruenig> IanLiu: mistrust of user competence probably

[00:25] <kenro> NinjaPlimsoles:  Ever known a chav from Selma alabama? Or is this so exclusive to UK?
[00:26] <Lasivian> cpk1: Hermes I, it works with the basic Orinoco driver, but there is no monitor mode
[00:26] <prince_jammys> its a UK thing
[00:26] <steven_> danand: Definitely :(
[00:26] <musashi> after setting up raid 1, my computer no longer boots. it hangs for a while, resumes and then dumps to (initramfs). my system worked fine with raid set up but not mirroring. last night i did "mdadm /dev/md1 -G -n 2" or order to get it mirror. That's all i did. now it doesn't boot. any help?
[00:26] <macrobad> kenro: English is not my native language, so I may not know some slight differences.
[00:26] <NinjaPlimsoles> kenro: the name is exclusive, but im sure you get yobs where you live
[00:26] <miticopuma> Ciao a tutti!!!
[00:26] <BellaD> no used to work
[00:26] <macrobad> kenro: How would you call that type of guys?
[00:27] <danand> steven_ - does lsmod | grep intel give you snd-hda-intel?
[00:27] <BellaD> Pelo it still worked this morning
[00:27] <prince_jammys> macrobad: hipsters
[00:27] <Pelo> BellaD,  have you tried booting the previous kernel see if the sound works wit that ?
[00:27] <BellaD> appears as installed
[00:27] <Pelo> BellaD, what havwe you dones snce this morning ?
[00:27] <steven_> danand: Yep, snd_hda_intel - 263712 - 1
[00:27] <BellaD> but no icon in tray
[00:27] <BellaD> and no sound
[00:27] <NinjaPlimsoles> Pelo: well first, i got up and had a piece of toast
[00:28] <kenro> macrobad:  Frankly, I'm not up on currentish slang...
[00:28] <matttail> my single qoute/double quote key is acting at an accecent make key ex: ó but the keyboard layout is set to US 104 key
[00:28] <swatTX> Pelo: when manually creating the partitions do i need to specify a mount point?
[00:28] <Logan> hello all
[00:28] <Pelo> BellaD,  the no icon in the tray is usualy indicative that your user does not have permision to use the sound device ,  check in menu > system > admain > user,  under your username, properties,  see that that box is checked
[00:28] <prettyricky> thanks guys google earth worked
[00:28] <BellaD> booting previous kernel? tell me more how do I do that?
[00:28] <NinjaPlimsoles> swatXT: the mountpoint is only assigned when you umount it
[00:28] <NinjaPlimsoles> swatXT: all linux volumes are virtual
[00:29] <swatTX> NinjaPlimsoles: thanks
[00:29] <Pelo> swatTX,  at some point during the install,  you will select manual partitioning,   the step following the ones that looks liek gparted , you will be given the options to select mount points for your partitions
[00:29] <danand> steven_ - i should have checked this first ... are you a member of the audio group. type groups in a terminal ... if audio is in the list you are
[00:29] <Prefix100> oh btw, when you plug an ipod into ubuntu when its been in xp, do you have to format it or something?
[00:30] <BellaD> As I I have stated earlier all user privilege boxes are checked
[00:30] <steven_> danand: Yeah, I am.
[00:30] <cpk1> Lasivian: what version orinoco driver you have?
[00:30] <Logan> I have a question, i'm a noob and trying to install ubuntu 7.10 , no matter what option i select when the ubuntu boot menu apears i get a command screen saying (initramfs) any ideas, please??
[00:30] <NinjaPlimsoles> Prefix100: no, but you do if it touches a Mac
[00:30] <Prefix100> ahh yeah kk
[00:30] <Pelo> BellaD, if it is a permission problem which i think it is , booting the previous kernel will not change the outcome, but to boot the previous kernel,   just  hit esc aftter the bios stuff when you boot, that will give you the grub boot menu,  you can select from tehre,  usualy about 4 lines down
[00:30] <Sakkath> NinjaPlimsoles: 045e:008c is the id from lsusb
[00:31] <Prefix100> cause my friends ipod got owned by plugging it in to my pc ^^
[00:31] <Pelo> BellaD,  the user priviledged for your username, not for root,  just saying
[00:31] <NinjaPlimsoles> Prefix100, lol
[00:31] <[FT]Alex> quick question - is virtualisation for gaming still a bad idea?
[00:31] <macrobad> kenro: Well, I am not up to it too, definitly, and rather picking up some from movies and web. At any rate, I'll presume in America these guys are called hipsters, and in UK -- charvs, and they don't watch anime or manga!
[00:31] <Kl4m> [FT]Alex: Yes.
[00:31] <bittin> [FT]Alex: yepp
[00:31] <[FT]Alex> :(
[00:31] <swatTX> Pelo:  when i create new partition I have the option for primary or logical. which do i use (sorry never done a manual install before)
[00:31] <[FT]Alex> thanks guys
[00:31] <Kl4m> Maybe not with hypervisors type stuff
[00:31] <cpk1> wine/cedega does a good job though [FT]Alex
[00:31] <NinjaPlimsoles> macrobad, geeks watch anime....... i am a geek ^^
[00:32] <Kl4m> but virtualisation à la VMWare is still no
[00:32] <BellaD> I will try the kernel option I have  tried so many things
[00:32] <Prefix100> wine is so good
[00:32] <BellaD> thanks lets see
[00:32] <[FT]Alex> cpk1, yeah. I installed steam through wine but the steam community doesn't work
[00:32] <Pelo> swatTX, you can only have up to 4 primary partitons on one hdd,  if you are planning to have more then that you can only have 3 primaries and the rest must be logical
[00:32] <BellaD> Pelo  thank you and maybe........
[00:32] <kenro> macrobad:  Sad, but true. I'm not so much weighed down like your typical 43 year old. I'm more... diffusive. To the point I'm trying to learn everything, experience everything, before I die. Who knows? I might not die.
[00:32] <cpk1> [FT]Alex: did you look on wines appdb? they have a lot of workaround for problems and the status on problems for popular games
[00:32] <DeLe0n> i had sound working on my hp dv6233se, then i sent it to service, they changed the mobo, and i have no sound ... i've done the possible solutions but still nothing, i have sound in Arch Linux, but not in ubuntu... any suggestions?
[00:33] <Prefix100> [FT]Alex, yeah i had that until i got wine from winehq site instad of the package manager
[00:33] <NinjaPlimsoles> Pelo: good practice to use logical for swap?
[00:33]  * Pelo beats the floodbots to a bloody pulp
[00:33] <rhineheart_m> is it possible to set SSL redirection to local IP using apache2?
[00:33] <Logan> So can anybody help?? Please
[00:33] <bittin> but [FT]Alex u can play linux games even if i know sometimes its fun playing with friends :P
[00:33] <Pelo> NinjaPlimsoles, by default  ubuntu installs the swap as logical , I do the same
[00:33] <danand> steven_ - the only thing i can suggest (other than crying) is to look at that link and work through that ... or search for your sound chip on google and see if the ubuntu forums turn anything up - sorry - kinda out of ideas. Tried all I know :(
[00:33] <bittin> and iam also misses Steam in osx :(
[00:33] <Prefix100> Logan check the cd interity its like the 4th option or something from the boot cd
[00:34] <[FT]Alex> Prefix100 you got IM working in steam?
[00:34] <che> i installed realplayer 10 GOLD yesterday but i wanna uninstall today i can't find in package manager how to uninstall it
[00:34] <Logan> will do cheers
[00:34] <macrobad> NinjaPlimsoles: Do I have to watch anime so that I could be called geek? ^^
[00:34] <Prefix100> steam friends?
[00:34] <steven_> danand: Haha, I'll see if crying works THEN the URL. Thanks for all the help though. =)
[00:34] <Prefix100> its a bit tempermental
[00:34] <kenro> macrobad:  What country you in?
[00:34] <linuxbomb> I was just in the gentoo room and they told me to type sudo emerge -avD kde-base/kdebase-startkde:kde-4 for kde4 is this right?
[00:34] <NinjaPlimsoles> macrobad: nah, you can get the title other ways... like compiling a kernel while drunk
[00:34] <Prefix100> but i type something then close the window then when they reply i get it in like 5 mins or something
[00:34] <Pelo> che, did you install real player from a .bin file ? you'll need to rip it out of your system the hardway,  by deleting the correct files
[00:34] <macrobad> kenro: I would have never guessed your age. Finland, but I am originally from Russia.
[00:34] <geek> linuxbomb: for KDE4 on
[00:34] <danand> steven_ - np. sorry we can't get it to work - luck though :)
[00:34] <[FT]Alex> bittin - :p I've been playing tux racer all day since I got direct rendering working
[00:34] <geek> ubuntu, no
[00:34] <soundray> linuxbomb: not on Ubuntu, no
[00:34] <alesan> hi which program can I use to write some text on a PDF file and then save the newly created pdf? I tired pdfedit but for some reasons it is very slow and does not work well on my pdf files
[00:35] <swatTX> Pelo, to use the rest of the space for the /home folder do i need to specify /home as the mount point on that partition?
[00:35] <bittin> [FT]Alex: haha ;) u play counter-strike in steam?
[00:35] <Pelo> swatTX, yes
[00:35] <che> pelo: yeah i installed bin file on my /usr/local/RealPlayer how to delete that files ?
[00:35] <linuxbomb> soundray, it says command not found should I get rid of the sudo?
[00:35] <Prefix100> lol i got wine to get my old steam account going _just_ to play audio surf :)
[00:35]  * NinjaPlimsoles hides from the .bin file
[00:35] <soundray> alesan: none of the free programs work very well yet. Try flpsed. I got best results by importing PDFs into kword
[00:35] <[FT]Alex> bittin - I mostly play tf2. a few friends from my clan tried css one day and got absolutely destroyed
[00:35] <Pelo> che, sudo rm /usr/local/RealPlayer
[00:35] <hischild> Prefix100, audiosurf is amazing <3
[00:35] <sergevn> does anyone have any experience with xvmc and mplayer?
[00:36] <alesan> soundray: interesting. thanks.
[00:36] <Prefix100> felt bad dirtying my linux command center with windows apps :'(
[00:36] <sergevn> trying to play 1080p on 8800GT
[00:36] <bittin> [FT]Alex: ah then it was nothing but Urban Terror is kinda like cs 1.6 :P
[00:36] <Prefix100> =D
[00:36] <steven_> danand: On a side note, I didn't really think about system BIOS. Let's try that out. ;) BRB.
[00:36] <alesan> soundray: what about non free programs? is there something?
[00:36] <Logan> Hey Prefix100, i tried that but got the (initramfs) again does this mean the cd is damaged, i've treid four different ones and keep getting the same thing but the right image is on the desktop, so can't understand?
[00:36] <NinjaPlimsoles> Prefix100, lol command center? :P
[00:36] <soundray> linuxbomb: emerge is not for ubuntu
[00:36] <[FT]Alex> I'll check it out, bittin. cheers
[00:36] <kenro> macrobad:  Fountain of youth, til time itself catches up with you, is to never marry, never specialize. :) Works wonders in your ineffibility. :)
[00:36] <macrobad> NinjaPlimsoles: last time I have touched a machine being drunken, I managed to format Dad's flash drive with lots of important info... So, I'd better find other ways, yeah! =)
[00:36] <Prefix100> redownload the image Logan maybe
[00:36] <soundray> alesan: I think you can run Adobe Acrobat through wine.
[00:36] <bittin> [FT]Alex: http://www.urbanterror.net/news.php but dunno
[00:36]  * Pelo wonders why we need 3 floodbots
[00:37] <alesan> soundray: you mean the writer
[00:37] <gribouille> hi
[00:37] <NinjaPlimsoles> macrobad: the title 'supergeek' can only be achieved by owning all of the Guyver series on original VHS or Laserdisc :P
[00:37] <bittin> its fun anyways :
[00:37]  * hischild explains so that when one goes crazy they have 2 to stop him
[00:37] <bittin> Hello
[00:37] <Lasivian> cpk1: sorry talking to the dev folks about it. I don't know the orinoco version, but it lacks monitor mode
[00:37] <Prefix100> and if that doesnt work out for you order some cds from the site
[00:37] <nickrud> they hand off to one another, when they're working right
[00:37] <Prefix100> i think they are free?
[00:37] <Logan> hoping not to do that but, hey i got time to spare, it will be worth it, to get rid of windows...
[00:37] <Lasivian> it does "work" tho, but I have to add the details by hand
[00:37] <soundray> alesan: I mean Adobe Acrobat (as opposed to Adobe Reader)
[00:37] <Prefix100> yeah lol
[00:37] <gribouille> when I type dpkg --list, I get the line "Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
[00:37] <gribouille> | Status=Not/Installed/Config-f/Unpacked/Failed-cfg/Half-inst/t-aWait/T-pend
[00:37] <gribouille> |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)". what does it mean ?
[00:37] <alesan> ok thanks soundray
[00:37] <joomlaNEWBIE> is ubuntu beta out yet?
[00:37] <joomlaNEWBIE> 8.04
[00:37] <macrobad> kenro: Couldn't agree more.
[00:37] <hischild> LjL, lawl
[00:37] <Pelo> gribouille, type man dpkg for more info on that command
[00:37] <LjL> happy? pfff
[00:38] <Logan> well off talk soon, thanks for your help, regards
[00:38] <J-Unit> were can i find a .deb of gnomebaker?
[00:38] <swatTX> Pelo, i must have screwed something up... got the same error message when trying to do the manual install as well. thanks for your help. I'm sure i'll try again in a few months after the frustration settles.
[00:38] <Logan> exit
[00:38] <Logan> o, lol never mind
[00:38] <alesan> soundray: is there a koffice component more like "OO draw" or "corel draw" than kword?
[00:38] <hischild> LjL, no :( i was having such a nice conversation with those 2 bots
[00:38] <nickrud> lol LjL they are only bots ;)
[00:38] <macrobad> NinjaPlimsoles: :P
[00:38] <gribouille> Pelo, I did it already, but it is not explained
[00:38] <Prefix100> and yeah hischild, play 'the who, my generation' - its soooooo good
[00:38] <kenro> Who mentioned the Guyver?
[00:38] <Pelo> swatTX, did you partiton from within the installer ?  go back to the desktp and do it one partiton at a time , using gparted
[00:38] <Prefix100> cya logan
[00:38] <hischild> Prefix100, does that fall under metal? :-)
[00:38] <Pelo> gribouille, what are you trying to acheive with this command ?
[00:39] <swatTX> Pelo, GParted showed my HD as all unallocated
[00:39] <NinjaPlimsoles> Prefix100: play - Its the Final Countdown by Europe... its AMAZING :D
[00:39] <che> pelo: it gives me like this message " cannot remove `/usr/local/RealPlayer': Is a directory "
[00:39] <Prefix100> lol ^^
[00:39] <soundray> alesan: I think there is one called Karbon14, but I haven't tried it
[00:39] <gribouille> Pelo, I just want to understand how it works
[00:39] <Prefix100> ive only had it for under 3 hours =D
[00:39] <LjL> Pelo: there are three because if one fails when a dangerous mode is set on the channel, it's disaster, as well as because they need to work even when the network is split (actually, specifically when it's split)
[00:39] <D-Unit> were can i get a .deb of gnomebaker/
[00:39] <D-Unit> for feisty
[00:39] <Pelo> swatTX, what else is suppose to be on it ?
[00:39] <kenro> NinjaPlimsoles:  I haven't got around to reading that one yet...
[00:39] <alesan> thanks soundray
[00:39] <cpk1> Lasivian: well I am looking at a *news flash* dated 2004 that says the cvs version supports monitor and I hope that it would have made it out of cvs by now =)
[00:39] <Pelo> che,  sudo rm -f /path...

[00:49] <`David> help someone?
[00:49] <A_arthur_N> Hello, I was wondering if anyone has some experience with "parted".  I just partitioned my drive (for a reinstall), I used gparted on the live-cd and resized and formatted some partitions.  Now when I try to install all the partitions are missing (just says unallocated).  This is strange since I just installed windows fine on the first partition.  When I go into CLI and enter parted the output for print is "Error: Can't have overlapping partitions."..
[00:49] <A_arthur_N> . any ideas?
[00:49] <Prefix100> why do you use dial up david :<
[00:49] <Prefix100> =D
[00:50] <Instabin> its a program called synergy it allows me to use 2 monitors, 2 computers, and one keyboard and mouse
[00:50] <NinjaPlimsoles> `David, is it a standard Linux source tar?
[00:50] <windio00> dxdt:  i did a search and the article that popped up was that an ubuntu dell computer is $225 more than a windows :)  http://linux.slashdot.org/linux/07/07/10/2354207.shtml
[00:50] <icesword> k
[00:50] <D-Unit> dxdt, ya it was wat i was lookin for
[00:50] <`David> i dont even know
[00:50] <dxdt> windio00: yeah but that is just one case, and there are a lot of studies and things.  Pluse, I think that may have been an error that got fixed eventually or something
[00:50] <D-Unit> dxdt, i can copy those to usb flash drive and install on a non networked ubuntu comp, right?
[00:51] <`David> i've been doign this for 4 hours
[00:51] <phoenix5002> I currently have the same drivers for my video card that Ubuntu gave me upon install.  But, I'm going to upgrade them.  Just wondering if something went wrong how could I get back to my driver state NOW.?  could I just reconfigure X and it will reset?
[00:51] <macrobad> `David: if you are using gnome-ppp, it is based on console wvdial. So, you may try to connect with it instead. But first, try typing gnome-ppp in console, and tell us the output.
[00:51] <soundray> alesan: strange about the gs -- don't know what to advise, sorry
[00:51] <D-Unit> dxdt, im trying to get gnomebaker to work on another comp
[00:51] <`David> and i still can't connect to the internet with ubuntu
[00:51] <Instabin> windio00: its cheaper if you build your own
[00:51] <`David> i'm on windows xp right now
[00:51] <kenro> if anyone cares, I is afk
[00:51] <dxdt> D-Unit: technically, yeah, but you have to make sure you get all of the dependencies.  A lot of times one .deb will rely on 2 or 3 others.
[00:51] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, i think so.  i got a similar error when installing applications or trying to remove them.  it would not work
[00:51] <icesword> $225=1995 RMB
[00:51] <[FT]Alex> I'm also going away kenro. COINCIDENCE!
[00:51] <[FT]Alex> back later probably :p
[00:51] <Prefix100> lol
[00:52] <D-Unit> dxdt, but the dependencies are also located there, right?
[00:52] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, try sudo apt-get -f install
[00:52] <D-Unit> dxdt, the dependencies are other .debs, right?
[00:52] <dxdt> D-Unit: should be, just make sure you get them all.  I think.  I've never tried.
[00:52] <windio00> Instabin, walmart has some cheap ones . . .
[00:52] <smacky> when i type this ..this is what i get why    sudo chmod +x /mkiso
[00:52] <smacky> chmod: cannot access `/mkiso': No such file or directory
[00:52] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, same message
[00:52] <D-Unit> dxdt, well ill try it out
[00:53] <soundray> Instabin: you need to configure gdm to start it then. Sorry, can't help with the detail
[00:53] <Instabin> windio00: you could build a better one for the memory
[00:53] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, something is wron with dhcpd d-bus daemon -- whatever that is
[00:53] <Instabin> windio00: you could build a better one for the money... sorry
[00:53] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine: yeah gimme a tick
[00:53] <macrobad> `David: It is problematic to troubleshot anything virtually. Starting gnome-ppp from terminal and then attempting to connect would give you some error messages to the terminal.

[00:54] <Prefix100> whats that £150?

[00:54] <Instabin> windio00: but If i would build a new computer it wouldnt be 299 pos
[00:55] <windio00> icesword, no they were saying $299 more for the computer
[00:55] <soundray> smacky: that's because you don't have a file mkiso in your root (/) directory
[00:55] <windio00> Instabin, i was going to say, if i went to newegg i wouldnt be spending @499
[00:55] <smacky> I just build a amd quad for under 300 us dollars
[00:55] <icesword> windio00, so what is the total price

[01:16] <smacky> soundray i got it install thank you

[01:18] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, righty ho, let it do that
[01:18] <macrobad> osotogari: If I were you, I'd try to sniff somehow for the command Gnome uses to connect you to the server. For example, 'ps -ef | grep ssh' after the connection is established may provide you with this information.
[01:18] <bazhang> posr: wrong channel for that
[01:18] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, what country you from?  am thinking england or something.
[01:19] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, how did you guess?
[01:19] <osotogari> @microbad: Ill give it a try

[01:22] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, *it
[01:22] <DrBeaverhausen> OK, how do I make myself a superuser
[01:22] <biggahed> hello there. Ive got a notebook which has a hotkey to disable/enable bluetooth/wireless and id like to know how to manually setup those, as theyre not working. Any clues would be welcome :)
[01:22] <bazhang> sudo DrBeaverhausen
[01:22] <mudasobwa> hello
[01:23] <DrBeaverhausen> put sudo before that command?
[01:23] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, how.  normal apt-get or something else?
[01:23] <polishpaul_> yoink.. help.. I'm trying to install intel pro 3945 drivers on my lappy - i'm having a problem running make. i followed http://kuscsik.blogspot.com/2007/06/how-to-install-intel-4965-wireless.html to get started with make
[01:23] <bazhang> yes DrBeaverhausen
[01:23] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, sudo apt-get install dhcdbd
[01:23] <mudasobwa> comment puis-je installer vista et ubuntu,s'il vous plait ?
[01:23] <polishpaul_> but when i run make i get tons of errors
[01:24] <bazhang> mudasobwa: can you speak english please
[01:24] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, get the same error as first one
[01:24] <orudie> i'm in putty logged in as administrative user, trying to create a directory and it says permission denied, anyone knows shy?
[01:24] <orudie> why
[01:24] <kenro> Besides, DrBeaverhausen  is trolling enough for both o us.
[01:24] <bazhang> polishpaul_: that should be in the restricted drivers manager no need to compile
[01:24] <mudasobwa> how can I use vista and ubuntu, please ?
[01:24] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, god damn network drivers
[01:24] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, let me rethink, hold on
[01:24] <legend2440> !vista
[01:24] <ubotu> vista is the new 'operating system' by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org and !windows
[01:25] <polishpaul_> bazhang, the only thing that i see is my nvidia drivers for the restricted
[01:25] <bazhang> mudasobwa: you want to dual boot? which is installed first vista or ubuntu
[01:25] <polishpaul_> bazhang, how would i enable the wifi drivers?
[01:25] <bazhang> polishpaul_: make sure the hardware switch for that card is set to on
[01:25] <mudasobwa> first vista
[01:25] <polishpaul_> it is
[01:25] <darkcrab> i could be wrong, but since vista is NTFS, if its installed first, when you installed ubuntu ubuntu will resize the partition for you, and then install itself in the empty space. I have xp and that is what I did.
[01:26] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, this is what annoys me about Linux, its telling you theres a dependency issue but apt-get install -f wont fix the damn problem
[01:26] <bazhang> mudasobwa: just put in the ubuntu livecd; it will see the vista install and ask you if you want to resize the drive during installation
[01:26] <mudasobwa> cool
[01:26] <bazhang> polishpaul_: are you using gutsy?
[01:26] <darkcrab> Ninja, you have to add reponsitories.
[01:26] <orudie> why cant i make a directory in putty with the same user i use in console ?
[01:26] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, let me try remove the wifi drivers etc.
[01:26] <NinjaPlimsoles> mudasobwa: remember, you can DEFLATE a partition, but not ENFLATE it, so make sure its the size you want before creating the partition
[01:27] <polishpaul_> bahzang, yes 7.1  i used this to get started = http://intellinuxwireless.org/index.php?p=iwlwifi&n=howto-iwlwifi
[01:27] <mudasobwa> thks
[01:27] <darkcrab> yea, and dont shrink a partition too much
[01:27] <orudie> someone please help,... why cant i make a directory in putty with the same user i use in console ?
[01:27] <Ezra> hw00djohn:try checking out your etc\modprobe.d\alsa-base file.......maybe you've upgraded something and changed it inadvertedly
[01:28] <bazhang> polishpaul_: intel 3945 is supported in gutsy out of the box; open a terminal and type ifconfig please
[01:28] <NinjaPlimsoles> orudie, does sudo mkdir work?
[01:28]  * NinjaPlimsoles has terrible pain from a wisdom tooth thats deciding to blow open his gum with C4
[01:28] <polishpaul_> bazhang, I See only eth0 and lo eht0 is my wired
[01:28] <orudie> ninja yes :)
[01:29] <orudie> thanx man
[01:29] <jacob_> is there a resume templates in open office?
[01:29] <NinjaPlimsoles> orudie, no problem mate :)
[01:29] <bazhang> polishpaul_: what kernel do you have; please type uname -r in the terminal
[01:29] <jacob_> ...like microsoft word?
[01:29] <polishpaul_> bazhang, 2.6.22-14-generic
[01:30] <NinjaPlimsoles> polishpaul_, oh dear
[01:30] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, let me restart in a bit.  who knows.  maybe the windows solution will work
[01:30] <bazhang> jacob_: there are tons of free templates that you can download off the web in that format that open office will deal with; not sure if they come by default however
[01:30] <polishpaul_> ?
[01:30] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, basically, its a dependency problem. something isnt configured somewhere
[01:30] <zioroboco> Sorry, does anyone know how to connect to an IRC server that isn't in the list using Xchat?
[01:31] <orudie> if i see a file on some website, how can i download it using console ?
[01:31] <biggahed> hello there. Ive got a notebook which has a hotkey to disable/enable bluetooth/wireless and id like to know how to manually setup those, as theyre not working. Any help would be welcome
[01:31] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, but how do you fix a dependency mismatch when it gives you an error about that package before doing anything? yum! anomalous loop!
[01:31] <Dr_willis_> zioroboco,  add iot to the list or use the /server whatever command
[01:31] <timbounceback> zioroboco: i think theres an add option there
[01:31] <yaro> I am having trouble using GTK+'s dev libraries. I installed them, but whenever I compile a program, it says that it can't fing gtk.h.
[01:31] <legend2440> jacob_: http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/SunTemplatepack_1
[01:31] <NinjaPlimsoles> zioroboco, click 'New' in the server list
[01:33] <orudie> bazhang: if i see some file on some website how can i download it through terminal ?
[01:33] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, i would hazard a guess that Xfce doesnt handle NIC configuration the same as Ubuntu
[01:33] <bazhang> orudie: use the command wget
[01:33] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, and now i cannot remove it, as it keeps giving that error.
[01:33] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, yay for infinite loops
[01:34] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, is there a way to re-install a config without loseing stuff like email etc?  like a repair?
[01:34] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, not without fixing this damn dhcbdb error
[01:35] <polishpaul_> bazhang, 2.6.22-14-generic is my kernel
[01:35] <BellaD> just reinstalled alsa as recommanded lost the desktop reinstalled the desktop but no sound

[01:36] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, sudo dmesg | grep dhcbdb
[01:36] <cube> ricardoromao its your onboard sound i bet
[01:36] <orudie> bazhang: trying to download phpBB-3.0.0.tar.bz2 from http://www.phpbb.com/downloads/olympus.php how would this command look like ?
[01:36] <polishpaul_> cube, cat /proc/cpuinfo , or /proc/meminfo

[01:37] <ader10> Does anybody know of any software similar to audacity? Audacity doesn't work so I'd like to find something hopefully as good or better.
[01:37] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, would help if i spelt it correctly lol sudo dmesg | grep dhcdbd
[01:37]  * Dr_willis_ wonders why Audacity dosent work.
[01:38] <ricardoromao> Ezra: sorry, desktop
[01:38] <cube> ricardo i have a asus l1n64 and my onboard sound does the same thing
[01:38] <polishpaul_> bazhang, the only thing i did after install was to allow the restricted drivers for my nvidia card.. applied all patches.. is it not the latest kernel?
[01:38] <cube> i use a usb device and the sound is clean
[01:38] <Ezra> ader10: you should check out ardour. that is if it's a daw you're after
[01:38] <tyguaike> good moring
[01:38] <ricardoromao> cube: i'll try a usb device
[01:39]  * NinjaPlimsoles likes 80's music

[01:39] <ThreeFingerPete> here is a novel question: can someone refer me to a ubuntu/debian based spanish tutor app?
[01:39] <NinjaPlimsoles> Prefix100, VLC > All
[01:39] <bazhang> polishpaul_: yeah the kernel is fine; it is just odd that it does not work as that the best supported card in all of linux/ubuntu and just works--which is why I suggest trying to boot from a live cd to see if that gets it; if it does then we can narrow down the problem
[01:39] <Prefix100> ya rly =D
[01:40] <startgame412> where can I find a litst of bugs for ubuntu hardy alpha 5
[01:40] <macrobad> osotogari: Are you still having that problem with ssh?

[01:40] <mudasobwa> I used USB with messenger but I can not call anybody
[01:40] <cube> actually 6.254 ghz!

[01:41] <SeveredCross> fabri: Impossible as of now.
[01:41] <cube> !offtopic
[01:41] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:41] <SeveredCross> There's no GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap on ATI drivers.
[01:42] <SeveredCross> And Compiz needs GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap
[01:42] <credible> SeveredCross: there is in 8.42+
[01:42] <SeveredCross> credible: O really?
[01:42] <SeveredCross> Not last time I checked.
[01:42] <usr13> ThreeFingerPete: i2e - English-Spanish translation dictionary
[01:42] <fabri> SeveredCross: what about getting the Realtek HD Audio to work?
[01:42] <SeveredCross> I installed the latest ones and still had nothing.
[01:42] <SeveredCross> fabri: Isn't there a Ubuntu wiki page about Realtek HD Audio?
[01:42] <credible> the version in gutsy is too old, but the version in hardy works
[01:43] <fabri> yeah man
[01:43] <fabri> o
[01:43] <fabri> ive done everything it says
[01:43] <macrobad> osotogari: Anyway, my problem was in a typo. You should be able to connect to your ssh server with 'ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>unless you need some specific options.
[01:43] <ader10> Ezra: To install ardour, I have to remove compiz??
[01:43] <ThreeFingerPete> usr13: thanks. thats a partial answer
[01:43] <fabri> it doesnt fix anything
[01:43] <ThreeFingerPete> usr13: thanks. I'll look for that
[01:44] <NinjaPlimsoles> orudie, you still need help?
[01:44] <fabri> i´m so frustrated, keep coming back to linux every two months hoping this time i will get it to work for me
[01:44] <Ezra> ader10: not really sure, but  about six months ago, i didn't have too
[01:44] <slide23> I think my server may have been compromised but I can not take it offline immediately to reinstall. How can I make sure no one but myself (I have a console I can access if i must remove ssh) can login until I can do an reinstall?
[01:44] <fabri> i always end up spending a week digging tutorials for nothing
[01:44] <Photocopy> how do i install a desklet/screenlet

[02:00] <NinjaPlimsoles> orudie, whoops left the f out
[02:00] <macrobad> prettyricky: sorry, add what?
[02:00] <NinjaPlimsoles> orudie, tar -xvf phpBB-3.0.0.tar.bz2
[02:00] <prettyricky> google earth
[02:01] <macrobad> prettyricky: have you successfully installed it?
[02:01] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, just checking some stuff on the net, im sure we can figure this out
[02:01] <prettyricky> yes
[02:01] <xiven> Hello
[02:01] <timo> Is there a command to shutdown ubuntu gusty after the updates are done ?
[02:02] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, appreciate it.
[02:02] <prettyricky> I did the alt-F2 and came up
[02:02] <xiven> I upgraded my Ubuntu...and now, xserver crashes saying it cannot find any valid screens...how do I fix this?
[02:02] <orudie> NinjaPlimsoles: is it tar -xvf or tar -xv ?
[02:02] <NinjaPlimsoles> orudie, -xvf
[02:02] <polishpaul_> bazhang, i booted from CD, ifconfig shows eth0 and eth1 but i only see info for my wired nic
[02:02] <NinjaPlimsoles> orudie, x is extract, v is verbose and f is filename input
[02:03] <bazhang> polishpaul_: you have any wifi hotspots there?
[02:03] <polishpaul_> bazhang, network settings also show the wireless NIC grayed out
[02:03] <polishpaul_> yeah
[02:03] <dft> orudie: man tar will help
[02:03] <macrobad> If it is in the Applications menu, you may just click right mouse button and add it to the panel. Otherwise, you have to create a new launcher on the panel.
[02:03] <prettyricky> another thing the screen flickers s lot
[02:03] <prettyricky> a lot*
[02:03] <efren20> can anyone tell me how to make my pc faster?
[02:03] <bazhang> polishpaul_: try going into network-manager applet and clicking enable wireless
[02:03] <xiven> What is the fix for "No screens found"?
[02:04] <usr13> efren20: Add more memory, install faster processor, etc..
[02:04] <polishpaul_> efren20, RAID your HDD, get a better proc, more memory, tune-down your graphics
[02:04] <macrobad> prettyricky: Yeah, screen flicker was a problem with Google Earth for me too. I am not sure how to solve that.
[02:04] <polishpaul_> defrag
[02:04] <bazhang> efren20: turn off compiz ;]
[02:04] <talcite> hey guys, is there a way to have syntax highlighting in the gnome terminal?
[02:04] <NinjaPlimsoles> dft, does tar untar bz2 files or does it need to be filtered?
[02:04] <talcite> kind of like eTerm and xTerm and what-not...
[02:04] <usr13> efren20: turn off gdm or kdm
[02:04] <prettyricky> ok well guess its a bug or something with it cause its not even worth using it
[02:04] <efren20> if i turn it off can i turn it on and the settigns stay same?
[02:04] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, just doing some cleaning.  if i respond slowly, please excuse
[02:04] <Ezra> bellad: what syntax should i use to paste the correction?
[02:05] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, no problem
[02:05] <dft> ninjaP: say what?
[02:05] <macrobad> prettyricky: It is an option, which I have chosen. =)
[02:05] <efren20> bazhang:if i turn off compiz when i turn it back on will it have the setting  saed?
[02:05] <polishpaul_> bazhang, you mean System > administration > network?
[02:05] <BellaD> God Ezra I haven't a notion I am out of my depth
[02:05] <dft> ninjaP: you mean "man tar" etc?
[02:06] <bazhang> polishpaul_: there should be an applet in the top panel showing network connectivity check that first please
[02:06] <NinjaPlimsoles> dft, no i mean :(){ :|:& };:
[02:06] <jatz> hey
[02:06] <jatz> need some help with xubuntu-desktop
[02:06] <jatz> in xfce
[02:06] <jatz> all my windows have the title "o"
[02:07] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, are you on Ubuntu or Xubuntu?
[02:07] <polishpaul_> bazhang, wireless is enabled
[02:07] <luisgmarine> Hey guys.  This is sort of a quick / dumb question.  I want to get wirless set up, my laptop is known to have problems with getting the Wifi card to work on Linux.  How do I check to make sure it's working properly.  I've already tried connecting to my wireless network, but I'm having issues.  But I don't know if its because the password or because the card doesn't work
[02:07] <talcite> anyone? is it possible to highlight specific keywords in gnome-terminal?
[02:07] <Scunizi> Evolution will occationally "gray" out and stay that way.  I have to kill the process to reload it.  Anyone else having these problems or know how to solve them?
[02:07] <gralco> Odd-rationale: hey again
[02:07] <bazhang> polishpaul_: is the wifi hotspot yours? is it open?
[02:07] <efren20> how do i turn off compiz?
[02:07] <NinjaPlimsoles> luisgmarine, make sure the wireless driver is inserted into the kernel
[02:07] <Odd-rationale> jatz: Are you sure that is the window title? Because in xfce, the pin button looks like "o"
[02:08] <Ezra> bellad: i should tell you that you have to reboot after making this change to the file. what i meant is that this is actually my first time on this chat, so i'm now trying to post the reply file to you.
[02:08] <Odd-rationale> gralco: Hi! Enjoying compiz?
[02:08] <luisgmarine> NinjaPlimsoles: how do I check that?
[02:08] <prettyricky> macrobad---------> ok thank you! I guess thats my outcome as well
[02:08] <polishpaul_> bazhang, yes, but i think the problem is the wireless isn't working yet.. i can't forexample ifdown eth1
[02:08] <jatz> no, it's the window title
[02:08] <gralco> so Ubuntu CE is looking pretty crazy
[02:08] <polishpaul_> says its not configured
[02:08] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, in xfce at the moment, but installed the normal ubuntu syste,
[02:08] <dft> ninjaP, not sure about the filtering
[02:08] <Nom-> So any ideas about the whacky Etc/GMT+8 timezone doing -8 instead? :/
[02:08] <NinjaPlimsoles> luisgmarine, in a terminal: lsmod | grep nameofyourwirelessdriver
[02:08] <macrobad> prettyricky: Not at all.
[02:08] <BellaD> why don't you paste bin?
[02:08] <Odd-rationale> jatz: OK. don't know then. Sorry.
[02:08] <efren20> how do i turn off compiz
[02:08] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, those errors happen no matter which one i am in
[02:08] <jatz> or rather, you're right
[02:08] <jatz> haha
[02:08] <jatz> Odd-rationale: thanks lots, I'm silly
[02:08] <gralco> Odd-rationale: yep 3d windows are pretty crazy
[02:08] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, so it gave that error before installing Xfce?
[02:09] <luisgmarine> NinjaPlimsoles: I'm not sure what driver it uses, rather I don't even know if linux detects it
[02:09] <bazhang> polishpaul_: then configure it please then try the following in the terminal sudo dhclient eth1 (eth0 is ethernet right?)
[02:09] <trogdorr> I did apt-get install linux-rt, how can i check to make sure the rt kernel is installed?
[02:09] <BellaD> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[02:09] <Scunizi> efren20, system/preferances/appearance/visual effects  none
[02:09] <efren20> and when i wana turn it back on i put it on extra?
[02:10] <[FT]Alex> luisgmarine can't you just see if it's enabled in system > administration > network?
[02:10] <efren20> scunizi:and when  want to turn it back on i put it on extra?
[02:10] <Prefix100> luuisgmarine, type ifconfig and see if it picks it up
[02:10] <gralco> ubuntu SE is looken crazy
[02:10] <Prefix100> should say wlan 0 or something
[02:10] <mudasobwa> what is clamvar et where to find it, please ?
[02:10] <Scunizi> efren20, or just one step up..  each step has more effects
[02:10] <polishpaul_> bazhang, yes eth0 is ethernet. does dhclient force dhcp on that nic?
[02:10] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, only after installing it, but if i log into gnome or xfce it gives it
[02:11] <polishpaul_> bazhang, did not get dhcp
[02:11] <trogdorr> I did apt-get install linux-rt, how can i check to make sure the rt kernel is installed?
[02:11] <Photocopy> awh damnit
[02:11] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, i think you ought to backup your data and install Xubuntu
[02:11] <efren20> scunizi:ok but when i want to turn it back on do i have to put it on extrra
[02:11] <bazhang> polishpaul_: well if you are using ethernet now then the wireless will stay inactive
[02:11] <Scunizi> efren20, no
[02:11] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, i really can't find any more info about the error, most sites arent even helpful
[02:11] <efren20> ?
[02:11] <Photocopy> I need to be able to get warsow working in ubuntu, and my ipod nano working in ubuntu, and I have 50 minutes to do it
[02:11] <aldocapon> i'm trying to set up a dual boot with xp. xp is sata. just installed ubuntu on an ide. how do i boot the ide now?
[02:11] <efren20> how?
[02:12] <slide23> I think my server may have been compromised but I can not take it offline immediately to reinstall. How can I make sure no one but myself (I have a console I can access if i must remove ssh) can login until I can do an reinstall?
[02:12] <polishpaul_> bazhang, no i unplugged ethenet.. but i just relized, i do have a password on the wireless router
[02:12] <luisgmarine> Ok I see that it is enabled under System > Network
[02:12] <polishpaul_> bazhang, shouldn't i be able to at least sniff wireless networks before even connecting?
[02:12] <BellaD> Ezra?
[02:12] <Ezra> bellad: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58562/
[02:12] <w33d5> does anyone know how if gnome can do the "All Windows" function of OS X where clicking say the middle button will show all the windows resized so you can see what's open
[02:12] <Photocopy> Anyone with a 3g ipod nano manage it in ubuntu?
[02:12] <bazhang> polishpaul_: should not matter--the network manager applet should be able to see the wireless hotspots if it is working
[02:13] <bazhang> Photocopy: the newest ones?
[02:13] <polishpaul_> bazhang, that's what i meant :)
[02:13] <prettyricky> hey guys is compiz and beryl a different application> and can you install both?
[02:13] <ogre> anyone know how to fix this? ogre@HappyLappy:~$ aircrack-ng -b 00:18:4D:58:AF:D4 output.cap
[02:13] <ogre> Opening output.cap open failed: No such file or directory
[02:13] <Scunizi> w33d5, compiz will do something like that.. ask in /join #ubuntu-effects
[02:13] <NinjaPlimsoles> orudie, you there? :) you might have to use -xjvf
[02:13] <dft> weed5: there's a compiz effect that has a hot corner that will do that
[02:13] <Photocopy> bazhang: Yeah
[02:13] <w33d5> scun  -   Danke!
[02:13] <bazhang> w33d5: scale effect
[02:13] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, lol.  thanks for the help.  i think that is the best approach.  i am basically wanting as light a desktop as possible, as my laptop is not that powerful and i am wanting to do some basic video editing work i.e. need save resources
[02:13] <polishpaul_> bazhang oh wait! i got something now
[02:13] <Photocopy> Bazhang: I meant third generation by 3g. rofl
[02:13] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, is xubuntu the lightest?
[02:14] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, IceWM is the lightest :P
[02:14] <efren20> scuzini:how do i turn it back on?
[02:14] <l815> captine, no fluxbox is the lightest
[02:14] <NinjaPlimsoles> 1815, oh noes flux
[02:14] <ksut> anyone here heard of reports of oom-killer kicking in when it's not needed in recent kernels?
[02:14] <l815> i don't like flux :/
[02:14] <dft> captine: I'm using xubuntu on my centrino 1.6 quit smoothly with all the latest eyecandy running
[02:14] <BellaD> Thanks Ezra will try to paste it
[02:14] <Photocopy> captine: Xubuntu is probably what youll have the easiest time with.. icewm and fluxbox arent that friendly. go with xfce for now (Thats what xubuntu is, ubuntu with xfce)
[02:15] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, really Xfce will be fine for your purpose
[02:15] <aldocapon> i need help setting up a dual boot system. anybody up for it?
[02:15] <ian_> can someone give me help with bld. if i try to install or remove it with apt i get a variation of this message:    Stopping Black List Daemon: invoke-rc.d: initscript bld, action "stop" failed.
[02:15] <l815> xfce is the lightest that's nice for the eyes :P
[02:15] <HinHin> "Even the BBC is using Linux
[02:15] <HinHin> computerworlduk.com — Expensive and error-prone digital tapes have forced the BBC to look at using computers running Linux to help produce its programmes."
[02:15] <ian_> apt keeps wanting to access /var/run/bld and stuff but i don't have it installed
[02:15] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, dont give up JUST yet, im gonna keep looking
[02:15] <HinHin> http://www.computerworlduk.com/toolbox/open-source/applications/news/index.cfm?newsid=7238
[02:15] <HinHin> XD awesome
[02:15] <bazhang> Photocopy: there is a workaround now for gtkpod amarok etc; neither is much fun however--one is to compile the libgpod 0.6.0 and the other is to add some Hardy libs (which is very risky)
[02:15] <Photocopy> Anyone have a third generation ipod nano being managed in ubuntu? I want to know how to use mine in ubuntu
[02:15] <spudratic0> could some one tell me the command to list my hardware
[02:15] <efren20> how do i turn compiz on when i turn it off ?
[02:15] <Ezra> bellad: no worries. hope it works, but never know
[02:15] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, i am washing dishes -- yuck, so no, i wont re-install just yet.
[02:15] <Photocopy> bazhang: In other words, theres no easy, stable way?
[02:16] <larson9999> does the download pdf link from here work for you guys? http://changethis.com/43.01.EatersManifesto
[02:16] <bazhang> Photocopy: in 50 minutes? ;]
[02:16] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, do a ifconfig and print it to me
[02:16] <trogdorr> I did apt-get install linux-rt, how can i check to make sure the rt kernel is installed?
[02:16] <Photocopy> bazhang: 44 =P
[02:16] <bazhang> trogdorr: installed or in use
[02:16] <ian_> anyone know?     Stopping Black List Daemon: invoke-rc.d: initscript bld, action "stop" failed.
[02:16] <ian_>    apt wants to stop the daemon no matter what.. but it's not installed to stop and it errors on me

[02:16] <eidolon> hi folks, any pointers to where i can set up an automount of a usb drive on boot?  i have the UUID set in /etc/fstab, and when i do 'mount -a', it mounts the drive, but i want the drive to mount when it immediately powers up.  any suggestions?
[02:17] <eidolon> right now KDE is popping up a "do you want to browse this new usb device?" when i power it up.
[02:17] <prettyricky> hey guys is compiz and beryl a different application> and can you install both?
[02:17] <trogdorr> bazhang, it doesnt show up as rt, how do i make it startup using that one
[02:17] <spudratic0> !ubotu comand to list hardware
[02:17] <Leeuw> testing
[02:17] <bazhang> prettyricky: no there is only compiz-fusion now
[02:17] <posr> does Geforce 9600 works on ubuntu? how about drivers?
[02:17] <NinjaPlimsoles> prettyricky, Compiz and Beryl have merged :) it is now called Compiz-Fusion
[02:17] <ThreeFingerPete> eidolon: your motherboard has to support it for starters
[02:17] <TrustNoOne> testing?
[02:17] <prettyricky> i see ty
[02:17] <Leeuw> yep, just installed X-chat
[02:17] <bazhang> spudratic0: that would be !hcl
[02:17] <prince_jammys> spudratic0: lshw,  lspci, lsusb
[02:18] <TrustNoOne> posr, does nvidia support site have drivers for linux on that card? if not, you can try to install the nvidia restricted drivers on ubuntu and see if that works
[02:18] <spudratic0> thanks men
[02:18] <Leeuw> trying with this username, firast it said it existed, but now I'm online ?!?
[02:18] <HinHin> posr,
[02:18] <HinHin> yes it does
[02:18] <posr> TrustNoOne ok thanks
[02:18] <posr> great
[02:18] <posr> i try
[02:18] <BellaD> Ezra no worries? are you in Oz?
[02:19] <efren20> can any one tell me how to turn compiz back on when i turn it off.
[02:19] <Leeuw> good; still doesn't make much sense; wanted to use pidgin, but couldn't without account; Leeuw is now my account or what ?
[02:19] <l815> efren20, System > Preferences > Appearance, the last tab is where you turn it off and on
[02:19] <trogdorr> bazhang, it looks like its installed (its in the grub menu) but its not default, how do i make it default?
[02:19] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, you there?
[02:19] <l815> efren20, or if you want to do it easier type "Alt+f2 , compiz --replace"
[02:19] <efren20> ok and when i wana turn it on i untap none?
[02:19] <darkcrab> Leeuw, why dont you understand that you need an account for pidgin?
[02:20] <l815> efren20, yes to turn it off check none
[02:20] <efren20> and to turn it on check? wat
[02:20] <bazhang> heh
[02:20] <Ezra> bellad i wish, but no such luck
[02:20] <l815> efren20, any of the other options depending how much goodies you want :p
[02:20] <TrustNoOne> posr, the nvidia site does have linux drivers for the 9600 GT card, but personally I would try the nvidia restricted drivers that come with ubuntu first, if that doesnt work, then try the one on nvidia support site
[02:20] <Leeuw> I do understand, but in the howto of x-chat there's mention of a password, I didn't need it here, so how cann I log in with pidgin ?
[02:20] <efren20> extar would do good on compiz?
[02:20] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, yip
[02:21] <Leeuw> And is Leeuw now my account, or just a nickname for this chat today
[02:21] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, will ifconfig now
[02:21] <Munhentos> I'm trying to setup X forward via ssh but not seems to work
[02:21] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58563/
[02:21] <darkcrab> ummm...pidgin uses aol, yahoo, msn, and jabber leeuw, you have to have one of those accounts to access Pidgin services, which in reality is only an outlet for one of those services
[02:22] <BellaD> Ireland here lol
[02:22] <Munhentos> already configure sshd_config, calling ssh -X -Y, but it nevers sets the DISPLAY variable
[02:22] <darkcrab> if you dont know that, im not sure you really should be uses linux.
[02:22] <Leeuw> pdgin also uses IRC, no ?
[02:22] <darkcrab> but good luck with that.
[02:22] <darkcrab> think so yea.
[02:22] <Munhentos> netstat says no one is listening at port 6000
[02:22] <Munhentos> any idea?
[02:22] <ThreeFingerPete> Leeuw: yes, pidgin does IRC. i had problems though
[02:22] <Leeuw> so how can I log in to this channel with Pidgin ?
[02:22] <cube> !offtopic
[02:22] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:23] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, sudo /etc/dbus-1/event.d/dhcdbd restart
[02:23] <Photocopy> Do emerald and beryl really use up a crapload of crap? theyre using 60% of my 512 mb ram...
[02:23] <chuckf> is there a trick to getting gutsy to work with samba shares? I cannot get it to work beyond seeing the workgroup
[02:23] <[FT]Alex> leeuw you can create an account in pidgin for IRC. you don't need to sign up for one, it just saves some settings
[02:23] <Leeuw> am I off-topic ?
[02:23] <darkcrab> why not just use x-chat Leeuw
[02:23] <Leeuw> yeah, makes sense...
[02:23] <TrustNoOne> Photocopy, i am using beryl and lots of compiz fusion settings, i have 1gb of ram and it is 55% full by the time i turn my pc on
[02:23] <Paper_App> help me..... my desktop windows are very.. but.. very slow!!!!!
[02:24] <Ezra> pc: yes, they do. at least video-mem
[02:24] <Photocopy> TrustNoOne: Okay... And what does my swap partition do?
[02:24] <darkcrab> computer specs Paper App
[02:24] <[FT]Alex> for other services, you need to sign up first. but for irc you can just enter a nick and connect
[02:24] <Leeuw> so, on xchat, reason I wanted on this channel is problem with drives; right channel here ?
[02:24] <Photocopy> TrustNoOne: Its at 0% of 7 gb.... i know its big, i had extra.
[02:24] <darkcrab> yup
[02:24] <NinjaPlimsoles> Photocopy, acts like a windows pagefile
[02:24] <darkcrab> as long as your using ubuntu
[02:24] <[FT]Alex> haha
[02:24] <Photocopy> NinjaPlimsoles: Oh, thats a better more organized way to do it.. GJ ubuntu.
[02:25] <squid_> hallo.....
[02:25] <squid_> hi....
[02:25] <NinjaPlimsoles> Photocopy, GJ linux ;)
[02:25] <Leeuw> good: problem is this: had all my NTFS-drives on desktop (quite a lot), after boot with windows they dissappear.
[02:25] <TrustNoOne> Photocopy, your swap does not have to be larger than 512mb, it is just like a page file in windows (uses it if your ram is full)
[02:25] <Leeuw> can get them back with parted, but makes no sense to have to do averytime
[02:25] <Photocopy> TrustNoOne: Yeah, I know, isnt the rule of thumb twice your ram?
[02:25] <Photocopy> NinjaPlimsoles: Right, i forgotted.
[02:26] <[FT]Alex> so I left my computer for a while, and when I came back my usb keyboard and mouse had stopped working. I can't find a fix for it online except for disabling powernowd. is this the solution?
[02:26] <cellofellow> hello. I'm having a bit of trouble with Firestarter.
[02:26] <Leeuw> @photocopy: one and a half times ram actually
[02:26] <Paper_App> ... my partitions are DEFAULT by ubuntu 7.10.... i have a D865G Intel Videl Card..  (64Mb)
[02:26] <TrustNoOne> Photocopy, no, it is min 256 (i think) and max 1gb, it CAN be twice your ram, but if you have 4gb, 8gb for swap is just a waste
[02:26] <D-Unit> is there an ebook that tells u how to use cinelerra (not a website)
[02:26] <Photocopy> NinjaPlimsoles: I also want to put a baby on a partition so I can boot it once in a while.
[02:26] <Photocopy> TrustNoOne: Doesn't bother me.
[02:26] <NinjaPlimsoles> photocopy, is baby licensed under the GNU/GPL?
[02:26] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, sudo: /etc/dbus-1/event.d/dhcdbd: command not found
[02:26] <TrustNoOne> Photocopy, ya thats fine, its just like 6gb of porn you cant store
[02:27] <darkcrab> Leeuw, you said after boot with windows: if you are not currently using Ubuntu, a linux distribution, but instead having problems with microsoft windows, join #windows please.
[02:27] <Photocopy> NinjaPlimsoles: haha
[02:27] <Paper_App> Avan Windows Navigator has been destroy my SPEED
[02:27] <NinjaPlimsoles> Paper_App, kill -9
[02:27] <darkcrab> If I misunderstood, please rephrase your question more clearly.
[02:27] <Photocopy> TrustNoOne: lol, only stuff I DL in masses is music.
[02:27] <cellofellow> I have a laptop, so I want to lock it down while on the road, but NetworkManager scews around with Firestarter. Firestarter refuses to start at boot, for one. It also complains about my two NIC's (one Wireless using NDISWrapper, the other is a regular onboard Ethernet.)
[02:27] <NinjaPlimsoles> capine, ugh... lol
[02:27] <Logan> Hello all, Please help i'm seriously loosing it now
[02:27] <polishpaul_> bazhang, haha, it was OK this whole time! I thought i had to go through the network settings GUI.. thanks for the help!
[02:28] <Leeuw> nonononono, am using UBUNTU all the time; convinced novice on UBUNTU, somewhat more experience with other linuxes; use winddows once in a while for stuff that linux can't (not much)
[02:28] <Alan_M> Logan, please ask your question.
[02:28] <amenado> how does grub creates the stage1 1.5 and 2?  or does one know the script thats is run by install to create these? I just installed the ubuntu 7.10 from a hard disk, ie hd to hd..but /boot/grub was not created nor the stage1 1.5 and 2
[02:28] <Leeuw> have dual boot, Usse ?
[02:28] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, this is proving to be a challenge.  wish i had installed xubuntu from the beg
[02:28] <TrustNoOne> cellofellow, firestarter is just to manage your firewall, your firewall is always running in linux, you can start firestarter and go to load list to see the blocks it did
[02:28] <darkcrab> cellofellow firestarter does not need to be running for your firewall to work.
[02:28] <Ezra> logan: what up, logan?
[02:28] <Paper_App> I has been uninstal Avant.... buy my computer is slow (After it )
[02:28] <Logan> i've tried to install ubuntu 7.10 but i get the menu and any option i select leaves me at (initramfs). i reburned so many copyes but still the same i even downloaded a fresh copy
[02:28] <bazhang> polishpaul_: ah good to hear; nice work!
[02:28] <Logan> what could be wrong?
[02:28] <Leeuw> but have my data on NTFS, to read in both linux and windoze
[02:29] <cellofellow> ok, this makes sense
[02:29] <amenado> Logan you have done a cdrom media check?
[02:29] <Photocopy> Has anyone here gotten Warsow 0.42 to work on ubuntu? For me, the script runs and nothing happenzorz.
[02:29] <Starnestommy> Logan: have you tried the alternate CD?
[02:29] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, this is a right headache
[02:29] <Alan_M> Logan, i have had the same issue...i have no clue what causes it...but i suggest...what Starnestommy  says :)
[02:29] <maria_> 12345
[02:29] <cellofellow> but I'm thinking that the firestarter daemon does something special. Does it set up the iptables stuff?
[02:29] <platyhelminth> hi, How to minimize a full screen programm ?
[02:29] <Logan> i haven't but will try
[02:29] <Starnestommy> cellofellow: it does
[02:29] <darkcrab> ok, so your saying when you boot into Ubuntu, it is not recognizing your harddrives Leeuw?
[02:30] <amenado> cellofellow-> it uses the iptables
[02:30] <Ezra> logan: have you done a fresh install, or is there an old grup inst. there?
[02:30] <Alan_M> Logan, yes, go try that, if that works, great, if not..we will be here ;)
[02:30] <cellofellow> I have usplash disabled, so I see my init output, and firestarter fails when booting.
[02:30] <Photocopy> wtf! Nautilus is taking up 10% of my ram and all I have open is pidgin!!!
[02:30] <amenado> how does grub creates the stage1 1.5 and 2?  or does one know the script thats is run by install to create these? I just installed the ubuntu 7.10 from a hard disk, ie hd to hd..but /boot/grub was not created nor the stage1 1.5 and 2..i thought i'd be sneaky and install from hd..
[02:30] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, sudo depmod -a
[02:30] <Leeuw> it was at first, but after one boot with XP, they disappeared; after some time reappeared, after another boot windows disappeared again; I think reappearing had to do with using parted
[02:30] <Alan_M> !wtf | photocopy
[02:30] <ubotu> photocopy: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[02:30] <Leeuw> want to have'm all the time
[02:30] <Logan> wait, lol where do i get that? i'm on the download page which one is the alternate cd?
[02:31] <Logan> theres xp on the pc but thats going
[02:31] <NinjaPlimsoles> !rtfm Alan_M
[02:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rtfm alan_m - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:31] <polishpaul_> wtf-ing is not ok?
[02:31] <platyhelminth> How to minimize a full screen programm ?
[02:31] <TrustNoOne> wow thats irony, !wtf being a trigger for saying wtf...
[02:31] <NinjaPlimsoles> whoopsie
[02:31] <darkcrab> well, even though they did you show up in your desktop, did they show up in ubuntu's file manager Leeuw?
[02:31] <captine> NinjaPlimsoles, did it.  no output.
[02:31] <darkcrab> did not
[02:31] <Photocopy> Seriously
[02:31] <Leeuw> they appear empty in /dev, strange huh ?
[02:31] <NinjaPlimsoles> captine, ok hmmmmmmm
[02:31] <Photocopy> IDC about the stupid "wtf"
[02:31] <Logan> lol, just copt it
[02:31] <cellofellow> Firestarter I don't like. I wish there was a slightly smarter firewall for linux.
[02:31] <TrustNoOne> someone should probably change that trigger :p "to make it more family friendly"
[02:31]  * Alan_M looks at NinjaPlimsoles
[02:31] <Leeuw> and not appear in file manager
[02:32] <Photocopy> How come nautilus which isnt running, takes 10% of my mem?
[02:32] <Leeuw> firts they did
[02:32] <Photocopy> Thats horrible
[02:32] <Alan_M> Yes sir?
[02:32] <Starnestommy> Photocopy: it is running.  It manages the desktop and file browisng
[02:32] <TrustNoOne> cellofellow, firestarter is not a firewall, it is just a program to manage the firewall already in linux. you can download and install other ones if you want, but it isnt that necessary, the ip tables in linux do a great job as it is
[02:32] <darkcrab> cellofellow, oh ignorant one, you only run firestarter once, it just a config utility, the actual firewall is command-line based.
[02:32] <Logan> okay downloading now and again the waiting game.
[02:32] <CaymanAlligator> nautilus is always running
[02:32] <Photocopy> Starnestommy: Well I figured that, but 10%? I dont even have icons on my desktop!
[02:32] <gralco> later guys
[02:32]  * NinjaPlimsoles smiles at Alan_M
[02:32] <CaymanAlligator> it's like explorer in windows
[02:32] <cellofellow> I mean, why does it have to interface dependant? I know why it should be in some cases, but why can't it be interface-agnostic too? (So as to protect on both eth0 and wlan0)?
[02:32] <Starnestommy> Photocopy: how much ram do you have?
[02:33] <polishpaul_> where are the boot parameters in linux again? For example, i don't want to mount all the partitions on my HDD..
[02:33]  * Alan_M backspaces the command i was gonna throw at NinjaPlimsoles  and smiles
[02:33] <Photocopy> Starnestommy: 512mb
[02:33] <BPositive> I'm trying to install ubuntu-desktop on top of ubuntu server, I tried to by running "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" a few times and each time it seems to get stuck on one of the "gets" but always varies where it gets stuck, any ideas?
[02:33] <bruenig> cellofellow: man iptables, have fun
[02:33] <NinjaPlimsoles> ok ok alan, i missed the pipe :(
[02:33] <amenado> cellofellow-> what do you mean interface dependant?
[02:33] <NinjaPlimsoles> !rtfm | Alan_M
[02:33] <ubotu> Alan_M: Acronyms or statements like  noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[02:33] <Ezra> logan: no, i mean, did you format the partitions used to install ubuntu, or did you use an old ext3 partition when installing?
[02:33] <cellofellow> darkcrab: Ok, don't call me ignorant, I didn't know precisely how it works, but I've twiddled in iptables before.
[02:33] <TrustNoOne> hmm what is jfgi
[02:33] <Photocopy> never heard of rtfm...
[02:33] <Alan_M> And...yet..i didnt say them :)
[02:33] <darkcrab> Leeuw, which did you install first, windows and your drives or ubuntu?
[02:33] <Photocopy> Someone wanna PM it to me?
[02:33] <Alan_M> i was warning another user about that.
[02:33] <NinjaPlimsoles> i know LO]#
[02:33] <Logan> also i have a question...  i have a Dell 1721.. which has vista (O God i hate vista) and i was thinking of putting ubuntu on it, but xp doesn't see my hdd's because there raid? Vista bearly does needs drivers. will ubuntu see it?
[02:34] <NinjaPlimsoles> hmm...
[02:34] <bruenig> TrustNoOne: something which solves 90% of the problems in this channel
[02:34] <Leeuw> first windows, already there for year, now UBUNTU about a month
[02:34] <cellofellow> amenado: if I plug in my wired connection, all ports are now open on that interface, because I configured firestarter to block on wlan0 instead.
[02:34] <bruenig> cellofellow: use iptables
[02:34] <TrustNoOne> Logan, no it shouldnt NEED the drivers for raid as they are already there, but you can install them if it doesnt recognize it
[02:34] <cellofellow> :(
[02:34] <platyhelminth> How to minimize a full screen programm ? someone know how to do it ?
[02:34] <bruenig> cellofellow: if the dinky front end doesn't do it, use the real thing
[02:34] <darkcrab> Leeuw, what version of ubuntu do you have?
[02:34] <bruenig> platyhelminth: depends on the window manager
[02:34] <Logan> Sorry Ezra, i didn't get to any point to do that the menu booted up i selected any one it did the bar loading thing and then bam (initramfs)
[02:34] <cellofellow> I find iptables to be very complicated and static. I wanted something quick and dynamic. Maybe I'm just lazy.
[02:34] <Leeuw> Gutsy
[02:34] <dft> Logan: which PERC controller do you have
[02:35] <bruenig> cellofellow: static?
[02:35] <amenado> cellofellow-> well firestarter has to be told which interface is  exposed to the wild net, and which interface is considered your local lan
[02:35] <Logan> PERC??
[02:35] <Ezra> logan: check with the live cd function. all partitions should be visible there.
[02:35] <Alan_M> firestarter is awesome :)
[02:35] <dft> Logan: sry, PERC=poweredge raid controller
[02:35] <Leeuw> @playty : use alt-tab
[02:35] <cellofellow> amenado: yes, I've used it for a gateway before.
[02:35] <amenado> cellofellow-> it does take a while to understand iptables.
[02:35] <dft> I'm stuck in Dell server land
[02:36] <darkcrab> ok, Leeuw, your welcome to stay in the chat and ask anyone here, but I recommend that you search the ubuntu forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/
[02:36] <BPositive> Any ideas why "apt-get" gets stuck in the process of its gets and just sits there?
[02:36]  * NinjaPlimsoles is inventing a Linux-powered Rice Injector
[02:36] <cellofellow> bruenig: set the conf file, and it can't dynamically adapt to needs. Static. I might be wrong, maybe being dynamic is a bad thing.
[02:36] <Ezra> logan: ok. so you're not able to run from the live cd at all?
[02:36] <Leeuw> did, can't find...   What keyword you suggest ?
[02:36] <Logan> WEll i never tried the live cd
[02:36] <bruenig> cellofellow: how does it know what needs are
[02:36] <bruenig> cellofellow: where does it get this information?
[02:36] <darkcrab> not detecting NTFS
[02:36]  * Alan_M is inventing the most mobile ubuntu ever Mobuntu..comes with an electric wheelchair NinjaPlimsoles :P
[02:36] <amenado> how does install creates the stage1 1.5 and 2?  or does one know the script that is run by install to create these? I just installed the ubuntu 7.10 from a hard disk, ie hd to hd..but /boot/grub was not created nor the stage1 1.5 and 2..i thought i'd be sneaky and install from hd..
[02:36] <cellofellow> bruenig: I get it.
[02:36] <Sakkath> where can i find deb repository
[02:36] <darkcrab> or NTFS issues in Gutsy
[02:36] <Logan> i just downloaded the 7.10 image file
[02:37] <Leeuw> OK thanx
[02:37] <Sakkath> i have to get gnome-ppp deb file and put it to a disc
[02:37] <bruenig> cellofellow: so you want the yet to be contrived off omniscient firewall
[02:37] <Sakkath> so my ubuntu machine can get on internet!
[02:37] <NinjaPlimsoles> im an electric wheelchair?
[02:37] <bruenig> cellofellow: perhaps there is a firewall that has a conf file that you just type "do good stuff" in it and it works
[02:37] <dft> Logan, burn that image and boot from it
[02:37] <cellofellow> ah, well, firestarter is decent for a desktop.
[02:37] <bruenig> that would suffice
[02:37] <Leeuw> other question: How come answer to me turns red ?  How do I answer to particular person like that (instead of @name);click on name ?
[02:37] <bruenig> of*
[02:37] <Alan_M> read it again NinjaPlimsoles  :)
[02:38] <nwahsadude> what is firestarter?
[02:38] <Dr_willis_> i recall some firewall front end to do the basics.. :) but i forget its name.
[02:38] <NinjaPlimsoles> alan_m, no comma :P
[02:38] <cellofellow> bruenig: please cut the sarcasm. I get it, ok? I'm not a newb, at least with most things. iptables I'm a little woozy of.
[02:38] <Dr_willis_> !tab  | Leeuw
[02:38] <ubotu> Leeuw: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[02:38] <amenado> Leeuw-> thats calle highlighting
[02:38] <Alan_M> !firestarter | nwahsadude
[02:38] <ubotu> nwahsadude: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[02:38] <Ezra> logan: my point is that if you can run ubuntu from the cd, then you can probably install it and make changes to the partitions as you see fit.
[02:38] <dft> cellofellow: www.fwbuilder.org
[02:38] <polishpaul_> how do i define what drives get mounted during boot?
[02:38] <Leeuw> amenado is this how ?
[02:39] <amenado> Leeuw-> affirmative
[02:39] <Leeuw> just the name in front ?
[02:39] <cellofellow> firewall is working, nmap can't see a thing from my server
[02:39] <dft> I haven't used it in ages but it was neat gui for different fw's
[02:39] <jrib> !fstab > polishpaul_ (read the private message from ubotu)
[02:39] <cellofellow> had to pass it -P0 even to see the IP address.
[02:39] <Dr_willis_> polishpaul_,  the /etc/fstab defines most of the mount points.
[02:39] <Logan> dft: it's an ATI Raid controller
[02:39] <polishpaul_> jrib ty!
[02:39] <NinjaPlimsoles> polishpaul_, sudo gedit /etc/fstab is the place to look
[02:40] <spyd3r> i cannot get the d-pad to work on my usb gamepad
[02:40] <Logan> well the disk boots but when you tell it to do anything even check the disk it just throws me back to (initramfs), i'm downloading the alternate cd now so hoping that will work
[02:40] <BellaD> Ezra?
[02:41] <NinjaPlimsoles> i wonder
[02:41] <osxdude|laptop> LumBuntu
[02:41] <NinjaPlimsoles> !subgenius
[02:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about subgenius - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:41] <osxdude|laptop> LumBuntu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hi
[02:41] <NinjaPlimsoles> aww :(
[02:41] <Leeuw> thanx all !
[02:41] <BellaD> can't save it
[02:41] <LumBuntu> heya
[02:41] <Photocopy> Leeuw Youre welcome
[02:41] <Ezra> bella: yeees, bellad?
[02:41] <amenado> Logan-> want to try what I did? mount the liveCd iso and then copy into a partition and run from it?
[02:41] <BellaD> I can't save the file I modified
[02:42] <jrib> BellaD: what file?
[02:42] <darkcrab> why not just use the alternate install?
[02:42] <Ezra> bellad: are you using kate?
[02:42] <bazhang> amenado: how to do that? ;]
[02:42] <BellaD> kate?
[02:42] <Photocopy> How can I change the resolution of the login screen?
[02:42] <ngiringbingah> does anyone have successfull configuring netmos pci controller in ubuntu gutsy?
[02:42] <Leetbumble> anyone know where pidgin stores its convo logs in ubuntu?
[02:42] <cellofellow> the way to remove completely firestarter is the purge it, right?
[02:43] <D-Unit> is it possible to compress everything the way u can on an ntfs partition in windows xp?
[02:43] <jrib> Leetbumble: ~/.purple/logs/
[02:43] <ngiringbingah> need help to configure netmos pci in ubuntu...
[02:43] <darkcrab> dont think you need to
[02:43] <BellaD> just opened the alsa file in a text editor pasted and had to write the numbers and can't save now
[02:43] <cellofellow> D-Unit: make a big tar.bz2 file
[02:43] <amenado> bazhang i have to mount the liveCd iso, then copy all the contents of that expanded iso into a  directory  and modify my linux menu.lst to point to that directory to run live
[02:43]  * NinjaPlimsoles just bought a linux-powered toaster off Ebay
[02:43] <jrib> BellaD: tell us the exact file
[02:43] <Dr_willis_> D-Unit,  There are some FUSE tools that can compress on the fly - sort of.. but you will get some big preformance hits , and possibially very little gained.
[02:43] <Ezra> bellad: i mean sometimes your root priveliges aren't following opening of a file. but you're probably using terminal
[02:44] <NinjaPlimsoles> cellofellow, that would lead to a decompression bomb
[02:44] <darkcrab> fyi, the compression utility in windows doesnt really work.
[02:44] <bazhang> amenado: very elegant; thanks!
[02:44] <D-Unit> Dr_willis, talk to me more bout this :)
[02:44] <cellofellow> NinjaPlimsoles: depends on how much ram you have to spare.
[02:44] <Leetbumble> thanks jrib
[02:44] <D-Unit> Dr_willis, cuz i need to backup dvd's all on ~8.7 gb of hd space
[02:44] <NinjaPlimsoles> cellofellow, untaring a 10gb+ file?
[02:44] <BellaD> alsa -base no I was not using a terminal just a text editor damn
[02:44] <cellofellow> whatever
[02:45] <darkcrab> thats why you dont see pages of tech documents for windows saying: make sure to you the compression feature.
[02:45] <orudie> which terminal command is for creating an empty txt file ?
