[20:18] <jaggy> hey all, is there any linux alternativ for autocat

[20:19] <jaggy> Pici an technological drawing program for drawing machines ...
[20:19] <genii> BPage: So it's something most people can use and understand from the command line to alter text files.
[20:19] <Pici> John64: apt-cache search packagename
[20:19] <TheAnalogGuy> I think Im the only one in my apt area that knows bout that stuff lol
[20:19] <ikonia> adelie: should be able to although I don't personally rate vmware
[20:20] <Pici> jaggy: You mean AutoCAD?

[20:21] <ikonia> adelie: kvm
[20:21] <Pici> jaggy: I know there are some CAD packages in the repositories, QCad perhaps.
[20:21] <Leechzilla> I unchecked "Enable write support for external device" in ntfs-config but my drive is still read/write
[20:21] <BPage> genii: Will I need to reboot for the changes to take effect?

[20:35] <wang_> i m using xchat .... how do i change it? genii, _moro_bana_
[20:35] <Leechzilla> How do I mount my USB drive as read-only?
[20:35] <DJ_Danni> ikonia mysql
[20:35] <raboof> Leechzilla: mount -o ro ?
[20:35] <ikonia> DJ_Danni: thats correct

[20:35] <Leechzilla> raboof what about fstab? I don't need anything there?
[20:36] <raboof> Leechzilla: if you want it to happen automatically for that mountpoint, add the ro option to fstab, yeah
[20:36] <Shadow147> ?
[20:36] <wang_> raboof ... i wrote u the iwconfig in the personal tab
[20:36] <DJ_Danni> ikonia what is the command agen to Resart the mysql?
[20:36] <nicholas__> Can anyone help me get phpMyAdmin working?
[20:36] <Leechzilla> raboof: What about ntfs-config? I unchecked write access there, but it makes no difference
[20:36] <genii> Leechzilla: If you want 1 time read-only and it has an fstab entry then somethig like:  mount -o ro,remount /media/mountname
[20:36] <Leechzilla> genii it doesn't have an fstab entry
[20:37] <ikonia> DJ_Danni: sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart

[20:37] <nicholas__> Can anyone help me get phpMyAdmin working?
[20:37] <genii> Leechzilla: Then more like: mount -t fstype -o ro /dev/devname /mountpoint
[20:38] <Leechzilla> okay
[20:38] <genii> Leechzilla: If this is a removable and not mounted r/o then you may instead want -o sync
[20:39] <Leechzilla> genii what does sync do?
[20:39] <Leechzilla> genii yes it is external

[20:39] <nicholas__> I am unadble to get phpMyAdmin to work. How would I import SQL tables from a SQL file???

[20:40] <flithm> hey everyone... I'm trying to run a java app that uses SWT that on another machine works fine (uses native widgets) but on my machine here it uses nasty java metal look-n-feel stuff.  Anyone here know if there's some package I'm missing or config somewhere I can edit to fix this?
[20:40] <Leechzilla> okay

[20:41] <_moro_bana_> can anyone help , how do i remote access xp from ubuntu, i use vncviewer between ubuntu boxes
[20:41] <brobostigon> _moro_bana_: do the same thing, use vnc
[20:41] <nicholas__> humn okay thanks
[20:41] <MrObvious> _moro_bana_: Download Ultra VNC and set up a server on the XP box and just use VNC the same as you have been on Ubuntu.
[20:41] <peanutwithchocol>  hello, does anybody know a good antispyware for linux?? (of course i know it's practically impossible infect linux with this, but i would like one because sometimes i infected windows computer)
[20:41] <Lokii-> _moro_bana use terminal services and use rdp
[20:41] <MrObvious> nicholas__: Or use rdesktop for the Windows remote thingy.
[20:41] <MrObvious> !info rdesktop
[20:42] <ubotu> rdesktop (source: rdesktop): RDP client for Windows NT/2000 Terminal Server. In component main, is optional. Version 1.5.0-2 (gutsy), package size 118 kB, installed size 440 kB
[20:42] <ikonia> peanutwithchocol: a spy ware tool for linux won't help you on a windows maxhine
[20:42] <Farris1> Anyone know of a quick/easy way to script the deletion of everything in a directory except for $n newest files? I have been using find to delete everything older than $n days, but that doesn't handle the exception of files that are supposed to be generated daily NOT being generated. If the generation of these files is missed for $n days, then eventually all the files will be deleted
[20:42] <rolf> Farris1: I use something like ls -1t $PREFIX/homes*tar |tail -1 |xargs rm -f
[20:43] <ikonia> Farris1: you can use it with find and -exec
[20:43] <peanutwithchocol> ikonia: what i want is analyze some archives before bring it to a winbugs computer
[20:43] <MrObvious> peanutwithchocol: Just download Spyware Terminator on the Windows machine.
[20:43] <rolf> Farris1: on second thought, that doesn't help you though
[20:43] <ikonia> peanutwithchocol: I don't think that will hep you
[20:43] <MrObvious> peanutwithchocol: Only don't install the Crawler toolbar and you'll be golden.
[20:43] <grndslm> are there any other text based torrent clients like rtorrent?
[20:43] <ikonia> peanutwithchocol: the OS is called windows, not winbugs or winblow or any other childish names
[20:43] <_moro_bana_> brobostigon: with ubuntu i just typed vncviwer whatever:0 that was under command line, i dont know how to do it for xp
[20:44] <MrObvious> peanutwithchocol: It has a right click option in Windows Explorer for spyware scanning each individual file as you want to.
[20:44] <Leechzilla> genii: I don't have it in my fstab, and when I plug it in, it mounts automatically as read/only. Does it use the sync option by default here? I often have power failures and the drive gets disconnected before I can unmount it properly. I could lose data if the sync option is not used?
[20:44] <Lokii-> grndslm ktorrent rtorrent qtorrent i think it is
[20:44] <grndslm> ktorrent and qtorrent aren't text based
[20:44] <bod_> ikonia, but winbugs is more realistic
[20:44] <brobostigon> _moro_bana_: install a vnc server on your windows machine
[20:44] <Leechzilla> sorry read/write
[20:44] <ConstyXIV> does ubuntu support the intel 4965?
[20:44] <_moro_bana_> MrObvious:is ultra vnc GUI
[20:44] <ikonia> bod_: no, it's not
[20:44] <peanutwithchocol> ikonia: ok ,it was only a joke, sorry
[20:44] <ikonia> peanutwithchocol: no problem, just gets old after a while
[20:45] <_moro_bana_> brobostigon: thanks
[20:45] <Leechzilla> ConstyXIV: It's a restricted driver, but works fine.
[20:45] <MrObvious> _moro_bana_: Yeah.
[20:45] <Farris1> rolf & ikonia: My first instinct was to stuff all the files in the dir into an array, pop the last $n elements, then delete all files in the array, but that seems a bit dirty
[20:45] <MrObvious> _moro_bana_: It's got a service and a tray icon as you wish to run it.
[20:45] <ConstyXIV> Leechzilla, as in, not ndiswrapper, right?
[20:45] <Leechzilla> ConstyXIV: right
[20:45] <Leechzilla> ConstyXIV: Works out of the box
[20:45] <ikonia> Farris1: 'I'd just use find - quick and simple
[20:46] <Lokii-> since were on the topic of vnc whats a good vnc server for on a nix box ?
[20:46] <sub-esc> when does 8.04 LTS official?
[20:46] <ikonia> sub-esc: 04.2008
[20:46] <ikonia> sub-esc: does the name not give it away
[20:46] <Lokii-> heh
[20:46] <nemilar> ubuntu naming works like [year].[month]
[20:46] <wladas> hi there
[20:46] <wladas> hi there
[20:47] <sub-esc> thanks
[20:47] <Eyemean> hi is there a software that i can use to automatically scan for dead files and erase them?
[20:47] <sub-esc> imma idiot
[20:47] <nemilar> what is a dead file?
[20:47] <Eyemean> left overs from software installs and uninstalls?
[20:47] <mannytu> !clean
[20:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about clean - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:47] <_moro_bana_> brobostigon: apt-get install ultravnc this doent do it for me

[20:48] <Ecalix> when mounting a volume via command line. example of mount -t smbfs -o username=administrator,password=!password etc... how do you get it so a password that has a "!" in it will work? It gives an error of "-bash: !password: event not found"
[20:48] <_moro_bana_> wladas: hi
[20:48] <Eyemean> is that a software lookii ?
[20:48] <Lokii-> no
[20:48] <Lokii-> its a function of apt-get
[20:48] <nemilar> run apt-get autoremove
[20:48] <brobostigon> _moro_bana_: are you trying to install that on linux(ultravnc)
[20:48] <nemilar> it will remove any unneeded packages
[20:48] <genii> Leechzilla: if mounted readonly then sync not needed. If mounted writeable then a good idea for sync. Since all writes are executed when they are issued and not buffered, etc

[20:49] <_moro_bana_> brobostigon: aha got it, thanks
[20:49] <Leechzilla> genii: But I don't have the drive in fstab.. So where do I add it? It still mounts automatically as read/write
[20:50] <Eyemean> n meant meant for folders which dont get used somehting like that lokii
[20:50] <Leechzilla> genii: So I don't know if it's using sync already
[20:50] <_moro_bana_> Jack_Sparrow: captain, what can i do for you
[20:50] <Jack_Sparrow> wait for it
[20:50] <_moro_bana_> Jack_Sparrow:ok
[20:50] <noodlesgc> why have there been no updates for so long?
[20:50] <genii> Leechzilla: just: mount   should tell you the options it was mounted with, even if not in fstab

[20:51] <blackwire83> that thing you add with mkisofs -b
[20:51] <genii> Leechzilla: But as I stated, if mounted readonly then sync is not neccesary since no data can be written anyhow. So nothing to get half-written then lost during an unplug or so

[20:56] <xufu_>  Hey guys, got a question w/ wireless. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53488/
[20:56] <genii> Leechzilla: Add it into /etc/fstab using the info that: mount gave you as a guideline to go by. Except that rw instead of ro and add sync as option. If defaults is one of the options mount showed, don't use that since nosync is a deafult.
[20:56] <KaiForce> i modified my monitor setting (to reflect my real monitor) and native resolution wasn't an option.  Now I can't get native resolution back.  How can I fix that?
[20:56] <simon360|shiftin> If Ubuntu allows for derivatives, but only when any reference to Ubuntu itself is removed, why is it so hard to get rid of the trademark?
[20:57] <simon360|shiftin> I'm very close to swearing at somebody.

[21:01] <Dee_cz> hello im installing ubuntu 7.10 and im unsure how to partition the HDD... i have 2 windows partitions (both primary), and 10GB free space after them.. do i need to set up / and /home and /swap manually?
[21:01] <erUSUL> ruben: /msg ChanServ whatever
[21:01] <Leechzilla> genii: When I add it in fstab, it won't let me unmount my drive anymore
[21:01] <Cpudan80> Dee_cz: The installer should do a typical config automatically with the remaining free space
[21:01] <Cpudan80> Dee_cz: I would just do / and /swap
[21:01] <wang_> Hi can anyone  help me with my wlan problem .. already isntalled the drivers, did the wpa supplement (all by the book), can also see my router but can t connect. If i try t start dhcclient this happens: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53484/
[21:01] <DJ_Danni> ikonia No but it is just defult like always and it has always woork:S
[21:02] <Dee_cz> no /home then?
[21:02] <genii> Leechzilla: Please pastebin what you have in /etc/fstab
[21:02] <x-X-x> link me to a windows channel
[21:02] <Cpudan80> Dee_cz: another partition for /home would be ideal -- but with such little space, it probably isn't worth it
[21:02] <x-X-x> plz
[21:02] <ikonia> DJ_Danni: test your connection and get it working through the mysql client - then worry about phpadmin
[21:02] <Dee_cz> what is the benefit of having separate /home ? (apart from backup i imagine)
[21:02] <Cpudan80> Dee_cz: You'll probably end up with / and /home fighting for space (if you choose to do two partitions)
[21:02] <xufu_>  Hey guys, got a question w/ wireless. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53488/
[21:03] <whatshisname> anyone know if there is a wineasio ubuntu package?
[21:03] <Cpudan80> Dee_cz: Some people like to trash their distro vs. upgrade -- /home helps this because you can just kill everything except that
[21:03] <Cpudan80> Dee_cz: Backup is the main reason
[21:03] <lastnode_> xufu_: what is your chipset?
[21:03] <Dee_cz> Cpudan80: ok then one more thing.. is /home actually used to store programs, or only documents / program settings?
[21:03] <Leechzilla> genii: http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=105132~
[21:03] <genii> Leechzilla: OK, looking
[21:04] <Cpudan80> Dee_cz: /home is like Documents and Settings\<user> in Windows

[21:06] <MeNoS> no Cpudan80 , lol easy to say
[21:06] <genii> Leechzilla: Hmm. "use as a guideline" is not "cut and paste into fstab". One minute
[21:06] <Cpudan80> MeNoS: It might not be java -- might be sun-java-nonfree or something
[21:06] <Cpudan80> !java | MeNoS
[21:06] <ubotu> MeNoS: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository (in !Backports for !Edgy)

[21:06] <MeNoS> Cpudan80 could we discuss this in ubuntu powerPC channel ?
[21:06] <ikonia> Cpudan80: this is not the correct place to discuss PPC
[21:07] <MeNoS> ?
[21:07] <Cpudan80> ikonia: it's not?
[21:07] <ikonia> Cpudan80: no - and the PS3 works slightly differnt than x86
[21:07] <Cpudan80> MeNoS: No, I know nothing about PPC
[21:07] <MeNoS> i said PPC ,
[21:07] <ikonia> Cpudan80: so standard stuff does not work out of the box
[21:07] <MeNoS> didjn't ?
[21:07] <LjL> !javappc > MeNoS    (MeNoS, see the private message from Ubotu)
[21:07] <MeNoS> ik never said anything about x86
[21:07] <pteague_work> anybody know what the diff is between fuseiso9660 & fuseiso ?
[21:07] <Cpudan80> I think I'll just let this one go, my bad
[21:07] <ikonia> MeNoS: the point is PPC is not appropriate in here - as you where told yesterday
[21:07] <wang_> Hi can anyone  help me with my wlan problem .. already isntalled the drivers, did the wpa supplement (all by the book), can also see my router but can t connect. If i try t start dhcclient this happens: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53484/  please pm me if u can help
[21:07] <MeNoS> LjL , am sure that wouldn't be much of a help
[21:08] <Cpudan80> I thought you were talking about x86
[21:08] <ikonia> MeNoS: you'e not even read it yet

[21:08] <ixian_> hi, does anyone know how to get this wireless card to work? it's a dell wireless 1395 card, and lscpi says this: 0c:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4310 USB Controller (rev 01)
[21:08] <l00kp> Hey guys, I need help getting firmware for my linksys bcm4318 wireless card. More info http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53488/
[21:08] <MeNoS> ikonia , dude what is ur problem ??
[21:08] <Cpudan80> !bcm | ixian_
[21:08] <ubotu> ixian_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[21:08] <IndyGunFreak> !wireless | ixian_
[21:08] <MeNoS> am not asking you anything
[21:09] <Flare183> ixian_: i have the broadcom firmware that you need
[21:09] <IndyGunFreak> ixian_: if you search the wireless forum on ubuntuforums.org, there's extensive threads on getting broadcomm cards going
[21:09] <sn0> l00kp you most likely need the bcm43xx-fwcutter package from universe
[21:09] <Mba7eth> how can i configure d gateway with ifconfig ?
[21:09] <ixian_> i need to change the firmware?
[21:09] <l00kp> sn0 And after installing the fwcutter package I just "ndiswrapper -i <driver>" as usual?
[21:09] <Flare183> ixian_: no you need the firmware in order for the card to work
[21:09] <eVAn_cLuBBeRz> hi

[21:09] <ubotu> eVAn_cLuBBeRz: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[21:10] <sn0> l00kp im not sure, give it a shot :)
[21:10] <Flare183> ixian_: i have both the fwcutter and the firmware
[21:10] <sn0> l00kp do you have to use ndiswrapper ?
[21:10] <MeNoS> LjL , its because everytime i try to install the jre it it says that files am trying to install depends on the java6.bin or something
[21:10] <l00kp> sn0 So I use fwcutter to get the firmware loaded?
[21:11] <MeNoS> a file which i tried installing and searched but i never found
[21:11] <LjL> MeNoS: that's while installing it from Medibuntu?

[21:11] <MeNoS> i have
[21:11]  * IndyGunFreak laughs at LJL's detective abilities
[21:11] <hnaz> hi
[21:11] <LjL> MeNoS: then how could you not know about medibuntu?
[21:12] <MeNoS>  i have all the java file but not the java6.bin
[21:12] <ikonia> LjL: I wasted 2 hours with him yesterday
[21:12] <l00kp> sn0 Can't find the correct bcm4318 firmware online, can you help me find it?
[21:12] <LjL> ikonia: let's waste some more
[21:12] <Task> I have 3 partitions.... One for windows.. and two others I havent messed with....  I am install ubuntu 7.10 right now... but I am at the part where I select my partition... how do I set it to the right partition with the Manual feature?
[21:12] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: 2hrs?..lol, must have been a slow day, i can't see you having that sort of patience..lol
[21:12] <Cpudan80> Task: set the right one?
[21:12] <LjL> MeNoS: so, now that you've understood the question - is that while installing from Medibuntu?
[21:12] <Cpudan80> Task: You choose the one that matches the size of the empty space
[21:13] <hnaz> I was trying to auto-mount my crypted home partition.  On boot I get asked for the cryptsetup password; the only problem is that while cryptsetup reads the password it does not turn off the terminal's echo
[21:13] <Cpudan80> Task: Probably sda3 (if you have 2 others on others on the same disk, both of which for windows)
[21:13] <whatabout> someone with dvddecrypter on gutsy?
[21:13] <MeNoS> LjL , the link ubotu gave me got nothing to do with medibuntu /
[21:13] <noodlesgc> whatabout yeah
[21:13] <hnaz> It can't of course, because the init script doesn't seem to have fd 0 open and the password is read from fd 1
[21:13] <hnaz> what is this?  does upstart do weird stuff with stdin/stdout?
[21:13] <LjL> MeNoS: eh? what about the part where it says "Note: There is now an easier way to install the IBM JDK, all you have to do is to add the medibuntu-repository to your sources.list "
[21:14] <raboof> what would be the preferred way to get a recent version of eclipse? just download from eclipse.org and install manually?
[21:14] <genii> Leechzilla:  change "/dev/sde1 /media/External fuseblk rw,nosync,nosuid,nodev,noatime,allow_other,blksize=4096 0 0"   to be "/dev/sde1 /media/External ntfs sync,umask=222,utf8 0 0"
[21:14] <Task> Ok... which would be #5 logical 21 bg space .......I select it with enter and goes to new menu...It has a "USE AS" menu ... What should I set that to?
[21:14] <LjL> MeNoS: you know, right there in the "PowerPC" chapter
[21:14] <whatabout> noodlesgc:i've "no devices detected"
[21:14] <whatabout> noodlesgc: can you help me?
[21:14] <Cpudan80> raboof: If you really need the most recent version.... but it is in the repos (sudo apt-get install eclipse)
[21:14] <Cpudan80> raboof: That might be a little ol
[21:14] <Cpudan80> old*
[21:14] <Cpudan80> Looks like it's 3.2
[21:15] <mikebot> Does anyone know why when I put my computer into hibernation, every time I turn it back on it doesn't act like it's coming out of hibernation, but instead just reboots?
[21:15] <noodlesgc> whatabout change wine settings to windows NT
[21:15] <raboof> Cpudan80: yeah, and it doesn't seem to work too well either
[21:15] <MeNoS> Yes LjL , actually i do have the medibuntu on my sources.list
[21:15] <Cpudan80> raboof: Works ok on my end -- what's wrong with yours?
[21:15] <Leechzilla> genii: Done, but it still won't let me unmount
[21:15] <MeNoS> but i still never manages to get the java installed
[21:15] <raboof> Cpudan80: i.e. reflection during debugging seems to be borked somehow
[21:15]  * IndyGunFreak installed Java in about 5min by downloading it from java.com..lol
[21:15] <LjL> MeNoS: well, having it is not enough, however. which part, exactly, of the PowerPC instructions do you get stuck at? what's the output? (use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to provide us with it)
[21:15] <genii> Leechzilla: sudo umount /media/External
[21:16] <zoke> is there a way to either change my wiki name or to link my launchpad account to my forums account ?

[21:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hibernate - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[21:16] <zoke> ? source-o0matic
[21:16] <Task> Cpudan80 What should I set the partition to for "USE"   Ext3 , Ext2  , JFS , Fat16 , Fat32   ect ect  ?
[21:16] <hnaz> mikebot: could you make `dmesg` output available?
[21:16] <zoke> !source-o-matic
[21:16] <ubotu> source-o-matic is not available anymore, please use Software Sources (in your Applications / K menu) to configure your repositories. Do NOT enable "Proposed updates" unless you're willing to test possibly seriously flawed packages.
[21:16] <mikebot> hnaz: How do I do that?
[21:16] <IndyGunFreak> ljl:  why not?,... just curious, i guess its always best for newbs to use the repos.
[21:16] <Leechzilla> genii: It says it's not mounted, but it is
[21:16] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: PPC
[21:16] <whatabout> noodlesgc: thanx!!!
[21:16] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: ah, thats right.. i forgot he's on PPC.
[21:16] <genii> Leechzilla: If you have some file browser open looking in there, or te command prompt is in there you can't un-mount it either
[21:16] <Cpudan80> Task: Depends on what you want to do with it -- ext3 is the most common for *nix
[21:16] <hnaz> mikebot: by entering dmesg > dmesg.txt and putting dmesg.txt somewhere on a pastebin or similar
[21:16] <Task> ok
[21:16] <Cpudan80> Task: If you want to share it with windows, the easiest thing to do would be to use FAT32
[21:17] <MeNoS> LjL , i added it and reloaded repository but most of the serveres and sites were not found
[21:17] <LjL> IndyGunFreak: newbs? are you kidding me? do you think when i tell (and i do it *repeatedly*, as do most other people here) people to use the repositories, that advice is only intended for "noobs"?
[21:17] <noodlesgc> whatabout: np
[21:17] <LjL> i thought it was intended as generally sound advice
[21:17] <mikebot> hnaz: OK, one moment please.
[21:17] <IndyGunFreak> LJL:  no, not at all, i agree with you, use the repos whenever possible.
[21:17] <LjL> MeNoS: really? pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list and let me see
[21:17] <genii> Leechzilla: Try:   sudo mount -o remount /media/External
[21:17] <wang_> flare183 u there?
[21:17] <Leechzilla> genii: Nope, nothing. It says "umount: /media/External: not mounted"
[21:17] <MeNoS> sure
[21:18] <Flare183> wang_: yeap
[21:18] <MeNoS>  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53481/
[21:18] <Leechzilla> genii: It says: Remounting is not supported at present. You have to umount volume and then mount it once again.
[21:18] <genii> Leechzilla: Hah.
[21:18] <wang_> flare183 wrote u back :D
[21:19] <unagi> if i partition my already dual booting hd to install kubuntu to try it out and decide i dont like it and remove it, will that mess with my current setup as far as grub and all that is concerned?
[21:19] <genii> Leechzilla: Does dir /media/External   exist?
[21:19] <IndyGunFreak> hmm, how did he end up w/ feisty and gutsy?
[21:19] <Leechzilla> genii: Yes.
[21:19] <MeNoS> because i tried all
[21:19] <Flare183> wang_: i don't see nothing new... in the PM that is.

[21:19] <Task> Ok ... So Partition 1 = Windows    Partition 2 = *nix  Partition = shoud be swap space??
[21:19] <pewpewpew> i've tried.
[21:19]  * genii thanks the floodbot
[21:19] <IndyGunFreak> pewpewpew: i don't think he really has anything relevant to say.
[21:19] <Flare183> !paste | mikebot
[21:19] <ubotu> mikebot: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[21:20] <wang_> flare183 strange well i wrothe that i have a broadcom card
[21:20] <genii> Leechzilla: Try just then:  mount /media/External
[21:20] <pewpewpew> IndyGunFreak: I just wanted to contribute for once. :]
[21:20] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[21:20] <hnaz> mikebot: the kernel's ringbuffer is already eaten up by iptables output as it seems
[21:20] <Leechzilla> genii: mount: according to mtab, /dev/sde1 is mounted on /media/External_
[21:20] <IndyGunFreak> Task: how big is your third partition
[21:20] <Task> 80 gigs
[21:20] <MeNoS> so LjL, anything am doind wrong ?
[21:20] <LjL> MeNoS: you shouldn't have this line: "deb http://packages.medibuntu.org/ feisty free non-free" unless you are on Feisty. and the line that says "deb http://packages.medibuntu.org/ Gutsy free non-free" should have a *lowercase* G in gutsy
[21:20] <genii> Leechzilla: You did not edit the /etc/mtab did you?
[21:20] <Leechzilla> Nope
[21:20] <hnaz> mikebot: capture the dmesg output immediately after the misbehaved reboot
[21:20] <Leechzilla> I didn't
[21:21] <IndyGunFreak> Task: thats an absurd amount of space for swap... swap, should usually be 1.5-2x system ram
[21:21] <genii> Leechzilla: Ah, the "_" there might be important
[21:21] <LjL> hnaz: it'll be quite some time still before his paste finishes
[21:21] <MeNoS> LjL , i didn't had it before but i later added it since nothing was working
[21:21] <Leechzilla> genii, but I don't have an External_
[21:21] <Task> Swap = *Nix and Windows can both use that space ?//
[21:21] <LjL> MeNoS: well the uppercase G certainly wouldn't help
[21:21] <IndyGunFreak> Task: what *I* would do, delete the third partition, and have 1 big second partition, start the installer, and choose to let ubuntu install to the empty partition, once it does that, the installer will automatically set up a swap system for you..
[21:22] <genii> Leechzilla: OK, so safe in this particular instance to remove that 1 line from /etc/mtab    but do not normally ever edit it
[21:22] <IndyGunFreak> Task: unless you have some other reason for that third parttion taht i don't know.
[21:22] <Flare183> wang_: one secdf
[21:22] <Flare183> sec*
[21:22] <MeNoS> ok LjL , i removed it again , now am gonna try installing the jre again
[21:22] <LjL> MeNoS: you of course need to « sudo apt-get update » first
[21:22] <Task> Basically acting like A dump.... and also where wine apps will be installed
[21:22] <Task> so it can use the existing files off windows installs
[21:23] <MeNoS> ok
[21:23] <MeNoS> wait
[21:23] <IndyGunFreak> Task: how big is partition 2?
[21:23] <Leechzilla> genii: Any possibility I could mess up something if I do that? It sounds unsafe
[21:23] <Task> ummm 20 gigs
[21:23] <slipttees> Which kernel versio Ubuntu Warty it Has ?
[21:23] <l00kp> sn0: Where can i get the firmware file for fwcutter?
[21:23] <LjL> slipttees: why would you care? warty has not been supported for ages
[21:23] <Flare183> wang_: ok what "version", for example 4301
[21:23] <LjL> !away > ChaoticMind|afk    (ChaoticMind|afk, see the private message from Ubotu)
[21:23] <craigbass1976> Anyone familiar with the convert command?  I'm trying to shrink some images, but can only enlarge them.
[21:23] <ubuntuo> hey, goes Ubuntu have a "network" applicatin to see how many packets sent/recieved like Windows XP does?
[21:23] <IndyGunFreak> Task: guess its jsut a matter of opinion, but i dont' think i' do it like that
[21:24] <Flare183> wang_: which one do you have?
[21:24] <MeNoS> hmm LjL , there is a problem ?
[21:24] <brobostigon> warty is ancient
[21:24] <LjL> MeNoS: a problem?
[21:24] <Flare183> ubuntuo: ping
[21:24] <wang_> flare183 can we use the pm?
[21:24] <slipttees> I know
[21:24] <craigbass1976> ubuntuo, tcpdump
[21:24] <Task> BUt if I do... both OS's can use that space ?
[21:24] <IndyGunFreak> my grandmother used warty during the WWI
[21:24] <craigbass1976> ubuntuo, ethereal
[21:24] <steckel> ubuntuo: try ifconfig
[21:24] <Flare183> wang_: yeah either that or join #ubuntu-us-sc
[21:24] <slipttees> using it in Pentium II :D
[21:24] <strongarm> is it possible to install the remote access software called Letmein on ubuntu
[21:24] <MeNoS> i did the sudo apt-get ypdate and in the end it says E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[21:24] <ubuntuo> thanks guys, but when i click my "network" icon it doesnt display any info like XP does
[21:24] <wang_> join #ubuntu-us-sc
[21:24] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[21:24] <LjL> MeNoS: close Synaptic or whatever is still using the APT system
[21:24] <ubuntuo> does ubuntu have something for that?
[21:25] <MeNoS> is this something that needs to be fixed in my sources.list ?
[21:25] <Task> IndyGunFreak   If I do... bot OS's can use that space?
[21:25] <Task> both*
[21:25] <IndyGunFreak> Task: use what space?
[21:25] <genii> Leechzilla: Since the thing was mounted readonly anyways it is fine right now. But as a general rule you don't want to be doing it.
[21:25] <danbhfive> MeNoS: try closing synaptic
[21:25] <slipttees> Which kernel version Ubuntu Warty it has ?
[21:25] <mikebot> hnaz: You know what, when I just did it it worked.
[21:25] <[Scooter]> hey everyone, has anyone had any luck using the Sony LocationFree with mplayer or anything like that?
[21:25] <Leechzilla> genii: It's mounted read/write
[21:25] <craigbass1976> ubuntuo, you should have seen a couple of replies from me -- programs that allow you to see network traffic
[21:25] <MeNoS> ok i did and it says some files failed to download <-- is that a big problem ?>
[21:26] <mikebot> hnaz: It seems this only happens when my cpmputer is in hibernation for extended periods (like 10 mins or more).
[21:26] <IndyGunFreak> Task: if you really want to setup a system like that, it sounds like you'll probably be OK, depending on how much stuff you stick on Partition 2.
[21:26] <adelie> is there a guide that would help me get several install CDs on one bootable dvd, and launch whatever installer I want from a bootloader? Specifically, I want ubuntu i386, ubuntu i386 alternate, ubuntu 64-bit, and a live server edition.
[21:26] <ubuntuo> ok thanks
[21:26] <IndyGunFreak> Task: but i would put swap and on partition 2.
[21:26] <ubuntuo> ill try those craigbass1976
[21:26] <brobostigon> slipttees: no idea,to ancient
[21:26] <LjL> MeNoS: "it" what? where? pastebin. giving us partial errors will hardly give us a clue.
[21:26] <slipttees> :(
[21:26] <genii> Leechzilla: OK, then exit mtab and just unplug it. Then report if:  mount shows /dev/sde1 mounted anywhere still
[21:26] <danbhfive> MeNoS: well, its definitely a problem, I'm jumping into the middle of whatever it is you were doing
[21:26] <genii> Leechzilla: unplug -> usb unplug not power
[21:27] <IndyGunFreak> Task: i'm not sure how successful you'll be w/ Windows and Linux sharing programs though.., never tried it, maybet ahts why what you're saying makes no sense to me.
[21:27] <mikebot> hnaz: I'm unsure if you are reading this or if I am stiill muted..
[21:27] <Leechzilla> genii: I already removed the entry I added in fstab so that I can unmount it
[21:28] <toucansam> hey, i'm trying to install ubuntu, but every time i get the io/read error.  I've tried with 3 different disks (one a dvd), 3 different cd drives, and verified md5, verified all cds/dvd, and verified disks.  The two first disks had 83 errors on them, and the last one has no errors, but i get the same error when i try to install the os
[21:28] <adelie> Task: IndyGunFreak: Sorry if I got late in the conversation, but are you talking about two OS's using the same filesystem at the same time LIVE?
[21:28] <wang_> flare183 i m in the other ubuntu chan
[21:29] <IndyGunFreak> adelie: no.. I *think*.. what he wants to do, is setup Part 1: Windows  Part2: Linux  Part3: Shared... but he wants programs that he installs to the shared partition, to run from Linux or Windows...
[21:29] <piccoloprincipe> hello, there is a way to make __autoload load interfaces?
[21:29] <Leechzilla> genii: And now when I plug in the drive, it says I'm not privileged to mount
[21:29] <slipttees> brobostigon: Ubuntu Warty using Kernel <IP_ADDRESS>-5-386

[21:29] <slipttees> :D
[21:29] <Slart> toucansam: have you tried using one of those cd's in another computer?
[21:30] <toucansam> no not really slart
[21:30] <adelie> IndyGunFreak: Task: Oh... one partition for everything, and basically use his programs folder as the default programs folder for WINE?
[21:30] <IndyGunFreak> adelie: I *think*.. he's kinda lost me to be truthful.
[21:30] <MeNoS> LjL , this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53493/
[21:30] <Slart> toucansam: well.. other than blaming it on some kind of small green computer trolls living inside your computer.. I don't really know what to say
[21:31] <toucansam> slart: goddamn computer trolls.....

[21:31] <Ayabara> is it possible to change the zoom level in nautilus, but not on the desktop icons?
[21:31] <IndyGunFreak> adelie: actually, letm e boot my PC it has an XP partition, i'll try to run one of my XP programs under Gutsy.

[21:43] <kuta> what software can extract songs out from ipod?
[21:43] <LjL> MeNoS: yes, i get the same as you when trying to update: Failed to fetch http://packages.medibuntu.org/dists/gutsy/free/binary-i386/Packages.gz  301 Moved Permanently [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]
[21:43] <Cpudan80> Boy that's a popular topic today
[21:43] <n56> thx cpudan80
[21:43] <LjL> MeNoS: i guess it's just a temporary hiccup
[21:43] <Valkyrie> got problems with my WLan: the front button to enable/disable WLan isn't working, and so is my WLan. although the WLan card is recognized correctly in the hardware information window. any idea how to activate it?
[21:43] <Cpudan80> kuta: Rythmbox can do it - as can gtkpod
[21:43] <brobostigon> kuta: gtkpod is one option
[21:43] <ikonia> LjL: I think there was a problem with the index file containing some of the java stuff
[21:43] <zengen> There are two accounts on our computer and sometimes when switching between the two X restarts for no reason.  Does anyone know what might be causing this?  Using 7.10.
[21:43] <lex_zzz> !bcm|l00kp
[21:43] <ubotu> l00kp: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[21:43] <MeNoS> well , so guess what i'd been doing was right all along
[21:44] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[21:44] <ikonia> LjL: people commented on it the other day when some packages where rebuilt
[21:44] <LjL> ikonia, elaborate? which java stuff? the ppc one? i'm testing this on i386, and it worked until, well, yesterday or so
[21:44] <l00kp> lex_zzz and ubotu: I read the documentation; I just need help finding the correct firmware file on the internet.
[21:44] <LjL> ikonia: "301 moved permanently" though, that's a little weird in my mind... especially since i can browse the place fine
[21:44] <noodlesgc> l00kp, make use of google
[21:44] <ikonia> LjL: ahh no, this wasn't java - this was just some PPC packages only that had been rebuilt and the index file wasn't updated
[21:44] <kuta> thanks
[21:44] <ikonia> LjL: different error
[21:44] <_moshez> I'm looking into ubuntu automated installation
[21:45] <Creed> Can anyone help me setup OpenVPN to tunnel/route only a certain IP? Trying to bypass packet shaping by my ISP for Ventrilo.
[21:45] <_moshez> googling showed very few solutions :(
[21:45] <genii> !ping
[21:45] <Pici> !install > _moshez (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[21:45] <ubotu> ping: unknown host
[21:45] <IndyGunFreak> _moshez: how much more automated do you want it?.. it partitions your hard drive and installs, about as easy as XP
[21:45] <l00kp> noodlesgc: I did try google. Still can't find it.
[21:45] <kbrooks> l00kp, http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/wl_apsta-<IP_ADDRESS>.o
[21:45] <chaosrl> does anyone know a fix for a broken notification area?
[21:45] <_moshez> IndyGunFreak: completely hands off
[21:45] <LjL> MeNoS: retry now - it's not giving the error anymore for me
[21:45] <l00kp> kbrooks: Many thanks.
[21:45] <ikonia> moonlite: deb installer and kickstart are your friends with pxe boot and dhcp
[21:46] <IndyGunFreak> _moshez: well, thats just unrealistic
[21:46] <kuta> can rhythmbox copy the mpeg movies files from ipod too?
[21:46] <genii> Leechzilla: I need to go. But back online in about 2 hours
[21:46] <Vorondi1> Hi all, I need a little help with apcupsd if anyone is familiar with it.  I think I have everything set up correctly, but none of the apctest stuff works.  See http://pastebin.com/m46f0fbc2  All of apctest's options result in a similar "I don't know how..." message.  Am I doing something wrong?  I'll paste configs if anyone wants to see them.
[21:46] <kbrooks> l00kp, bookmark http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43
[21:46] <Leechzilla> genii: Okay.
[21:46] <al> hi all. can anyone help a newbie accessing his winXP partition?
[21:46] <_moshez> IndyGunFreak: why is that?  How do I escape the - so I can actually cd into it?
[21:47] <noodlesgc> al, just open Computer and it should show up
[21:47] <Cpudan80> al: Reading off of it isnt a prob
[21:47] <kbrooks> l00kp, search in your browser (ctrl+f) for firmware installation on that page
[21:47] <al> Cpudan80: lemme check ...
[21:47] <_moshez> scottj: cd ./-directory
[21:47] <Cpudan80> al: You could just open my computer - as noodlesgc says
[21:47] <LjL> or cd "\-test", that works too with cd
[21:48] <al> nope, no windows directory
[21:48] <Vorondi1> Yeah, \ is escape, not /.
[21:48] <al> it worked before, when I installed an earlier version of ubuntu
[21:48] <jimmygoon> Can some PLEASE help me. XCHAT crashes everytime I cut text which is very often :(
[21:48] <joe__> I used to have a little icon up near my clock, for my printer que, for some reason I set it not to display there, how can I get that back?
[21:48] <noodlesgc> al how man drives show up?
[21:48] <LjL> Vorondi1: but nobody said that / would escape. what was said was to prefix ./ and that works, too
[21:48] <al> cdrom floppy
[21:48] <al> (and a few files)
[21:48] <IndyGunFreak> jimmygoon: that would seem to be extremely unusual, are you using the version thats in the repos?
[21:49] <Vorondi1> So you don't have to escape the dash?
[21:49] <jimmygoon> IndyGunFreak, yes
[21:49] <jimmygoon> IndyGunFreak, I even aptitude reinstalled
[21:49] <joe__> jimmygoon: I am not sure how badly you want to stick with Xchat, I use Konversation and I have no probs with it
[21:49] <IndyGunFreak> jimmygoon: weird... maybe try xchat-gnome.. i don't know.. never heard that one.
[21:49] <noodlesgc> al paste computer:/// to you filemanager addressbar
[21:49] <LjL> Vorondi1: no, why? the dash is only a problem if the command tries to interpret it as an option. but if it's not the *first* character of the parameter, then it won't even think about interpreting it as an option.
[21:49] <al> I think I have a pre-final version of kubuntu installed ... can this be the reason why it's not working properly?
[21:50] <seo1> do i will have a maximum size file on a ext3 filesystem?
[21:50] <Vorondi1> LjL: Ah, I see.
[21:50] <tushyd> is there a way to list all installed applications in terminal?
[21:50] <LjL> al: it surely could
[21:50] <LjL> tushyd: dpkg --get-selections
[21:50] <f1sh3r> i screwed up my graphics drivers on my laptop, and now i cant use compiz
[21:50] <tushyd> Ljl, thanks! very quick response. :)
[21:50] <LjL> tushyd: or dpkg -l for slightly different information

[22:11] <chaosrl> erUSUL, tritium: today when i booted up, my notification area does the following: i'm able to drag it and move it, right click brings up the popup menu for the notification area app, and not for the icon i'm clicking, left click does nothing. opening pidgin/rythmbox will result in the icon showing up in the tray, but i can do nothing with it.
[22:12] <act1v8> tim167: np
[22:12] <erUSUL> chaosrl: have you tried to remove the not area and add a new one ?
[22:12] <neverblue> l3st, there is an #xchat channel, possibly check there ?
[22:12] <tritium> chaosrl: must be an isolated case.  It hasn't been updated recently, and it's not broken for others.
[22:12] <aah> anyone have time to guide me through installation troubleshooting?  I'm trying to install 7.10 on a Dell Vostro 400, and it crashes hard at start of install (after the splash, after choosing install).  I have no idea what boot options might help.

[22:14] <Datalanche> Hi. This is kinda OT but the nvidia channel seems to be mute. ;) I am building a new PC, all Ubuntu, and regarding the video card. I want NVidia since ATI's new fglrx drivers still suck. Anyway, question is: In the hardware accelerated video using Xvmc, does it accelerate all video or only selected codecs?

[22:15] <neverblue> Robotchicken1886, keep it to a single line please

[22:19] <danand> xomp - look in gnome control centre
[22:19] <ScorpKing> bkar: yes thanks. doing it now :)
[22:19] <bkar> wang_-> try it on the clear before using wpa, to make sure they work
[22:20] <neverblue> ThipThip, thats where the 'execute' part of the program is, the rest can be found by using 'locate freemind' (permissions come into affect when using locate, if you dont have permissions to view it, then do 'sudo su', then 'locate <program> )
[22:20] <wang_> ok
[22:20] <_moro_bana_> dee_cz yes right click on any taskbar and click add
[22:20] <xomp> danand, I don't see a gnome control centre.
[22:20] <xerxes1358> If I do a Internet insall of Ubuntu can I chose the specific packages I want to install? Ubunutu installs lots of unnecesarry stuff when installed from DVD. Also is KDE 4 available?

[22:21] <erUSUL> ScorpKing: no problem
[22:22] <neverblue> aah, those checks are right on the installation CD (media)
[22:22] <Robotchicken1886> like is there a system reset or something

[22:22] <neverblue> aah, Live or ALT CD ?
[22:23] <aah> live
[22:23] <neverblue> aah, use the ALT instead then
[22:23] <wang_> bkar how?
[22:23] <aah> neverblue: very little forum noise on the Vostro 400 except people saying they had problems with hi-speed USB.  already turned that off. k, I'll try alt.
[22:24] <xomp> anyone?
[22:24] <danand> dee_cz - I know its a silly question ... but are you sure your not still booting from the CD?? :)

[22:38] <dsmith> aisStar: reinstall both
[22:38] <fatih> aisstar:what kind of issue?
[22:38] <mhrnjad> x1alpha: have a look at $HOME/.xsession-errors
[22:38] <Pici> fatih: man shutdown, there are options to do it after a certain amount of time.
[22:39] <aisStar> freezing after visiting flash pages....
[22:39] <rocks_newb> muhahahahaha i towrks now
[22:39] <brobostigon> fatih: i think the shutdown command wiill do something like that, have a look at its man page.
[22:39] <rocks_newb> victory is mine
[22:39] <rocks_newb> tftp rocks
[22:39] <dirtyhand> did Ubuntu already upgrade to the latest kernel that was released today?
[22:39] <mhrnjad> fatih: man shutdown
[22:39] <fatih> Pici:i tried that you are talking about shutdown -h **:**
[22:39] <Datalanche> bpage_: I'm not certain... it worked for me, but I have issues, too. It's a pretty poorly supported card

[22:40] <jeffMASTERflex> dirtyhand: no, the latest kernel was 2.6.24 Ubuntu is still at 2.6.22
[22:40] <fuzzdk> ?
[22:40] <dsmith> after you open a MAN page how do you close it?
[22:40] <Pici> fatih: thats not normal.
[22:40] <Pici> dsmith: q
[22:40] <jeffMASTERflex> dsmith: q
[22:40] <dsmith> lol..
[22:40] <dsmith> thanks
[22:40] <x1alpha> neverblue: gnome is not working. and when i try to run any gnome application from kde i get segment fault. ( i manage to get in gnome but panels appear as slightly greyish bars and are empty. wallpaper doesnt show up. somethimes beryl show up and the 3d cube works.cant undestand whats wrong.
[22:41]  * dsmith feels like a dummy
[22:41] <dsmith> haha
[22:41] <mhrnjad> dirtyhand: the 2.6.24 kernel was only released today .. it takes a while until it becomes available on ubuntu
[22:41] <neverblue> x1alpha, so gnome is working, and kde is working, try running a gnome app in KDE 'from command line', and see the erros
[22:41] <dirtyhand> mhrnjad: thanks, btw expect a lot of people asking this question today, article on the release of new kernel made Digg frontpage :)
[22:41] <Pici> dirtyhand: No.  There will not be a new kernel in Gutsy, ever.
[22:41] <jeffMASTERflex> mhrnjad: it won't be available for gutsy and i doubt it will be availble for hardy
[22:41] <mhrnjad> x1alpha: have a look at your .xsession-errors file

[22:42] <jeffMASTERflex> erUSUL: news to me. pretty good considering the changes in the kernel
[22:42] <alinon> has anyone heard news on better X-fi drivers?

[22:43] <mhrnjad> jeffMASTERflex: I would certainly hope that 2.6.24 is in 8.04

[22:43] <adub> when starting up and shutting down my system it seems slow....inside ubuntu everything is fine though
[22:43] <cloversg> Can anyone tell me how to stop gdm from automatically starting?  i would like to start 6.06 in terminal mode and then move to graphics if and when required.
[22:43] <crimsun> so rest assured that it will be in 8.04 as soon as the build failure is fixed.
[22:44] <adub> also i dont have a boot splash menu my screen just stays black until it gets to the login
[22:44] <DIL> test
[22:45] <erUSUL> cloversg: sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove
[22:45] <geonerd> guess no one here has to file taxes lol
[22:45] <cloversg> erUsul - I don't need gdm for x-windows to work (correct?)
[22:45] <neverblue> geonerd, that would be nice
[22:46] <erUSUL> cloversg: that will disable gdm from init scripts so you will get what you asked for
[22:46] <Ayabara> any disadvantages to having both gnome and kde installed?
[22:47] <geonerd> neverblue: do you file using software on a windows pc then?
[22:47] <erUSUL> cloversg: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start when you need Xwindows (or startx)
[22:47] <mhrnjad> adub: the splash screen an be configured in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[22:47] <fuzzdk> anyone knows how to install on a software raid1?
[22:47] <adub> whrnjad I just installed 7.10 last night
[22:47] <neverblue> geonerd, i think thats a bit off topic, but no
[22:47] <adub> do you mean in order to show the screen i have to edit grub
[22:47] <adub> by default the screen will not show
[22:47] <adub> on a fresh 7.10 install

[22:48] <cloversg> erUSUL: ok, that's what I wanted.  I am trying to configure a lightweight gnome terminal using the 6.06 server.  Can you point me to a site which shows what is contained in the rc directories and which is which?
[22:48] <fuzzdk> ubotu: Thanks will have a look
[22:48] <geonerd> neverblue, sorry - was just trying to find out if anyone could suggest tax software that runs in gutsy

[22:50] <adub> i have to edit grub
[22:51] <adub> i get my login screen and that is it

[22:51] <adub> mhrnjad: is this why my computer takes a long time to shut down and boot up??
[22:52] <cloversg> erUSUL - I did, but your answer seems to be on the mark.  Was searching around the rc's to stop gdm, Thanks

[22:53] <Cpudan80> !brokenusplash | dee_cz
[22:53] <ubotu> dee_cz: Supported screen resolutions are sometimes detected incorrectly, causing the splash screen to not appear and slowing down boot. Edit /etc/usplash.conf and change "xres" and "yres" to a resolution that your graphics system certainly supports, then run « sudo update-usplash-theme usplash-theme-ubuntu »

[22:54] <mhrnjad> adub: re. the length it takes to start/shutdown .. after you boot have a look at dmesg (/var/log/dmesg) and see whether anything is amiss..
[22:54] <dee_cz> if my desktop now runs at 1280x800 that means it is supported, yea? :)
[22:54] <Cpudan80> dee_cz: yeah, but maybe not by your laptops gfx card
[22:54] <adub> found the option for kernel and splash i see it
[22:54] <Cpudan80> dee_cz: I would use 1024 x 768 for the boot screen
[22:55] <adub> my grub looks fine
[22:55] <Cpudan80> That works for sure
[22:55] <willyboxc> dee_cz - do you know if the wifi care is the  Dell (broadcom) card or Intel wifi card ?
[22:55] <adub> and the splash is not commented out
[22:55] <DIL> geonerd, check out Sage's website they sell peachtree accounting and some other related prods that is compatible with linux not sure as to ubuntu
[22:55] <dee_cz> i think the windows drivers mention broadcom
[22:55] <dee_cz> 2200
[22:55] <willyboxc> sounds about right
[22:56] <mhrnjad> adub: one last thing if you do change /boot/grub/menu.lst you need to run grub-install afterwards for your changes to take effect upon next boot
[22:56] <DIL> i know ubuntu is linux
[22:56] <rodolfo> someone please tell me how to figure out the version of libc and XFree86?
[22:56] <adub> right mhrnjad everything looks fiine
[22:56] <adub> in my grub
[22:56] <willyboxc> anyone have any information about how to get pureadmin to work
[22:56] <adub> everything seems to be in tact in there
[22:56] <geonerd> DIL: thx i'll check it out
[22:57] <dee_cz> Cpudan80: & other i dont remember: ty, the boot resolution was 1280x1024 which the screen cant handle
[22:57] <Pelo> rodolfo, , menu > system> admin > synaptic package manager, do a search for each and you can see the number of the version in the colum next to the installed package
[22:57] <mhrnjad> adub: what's your problem? no splash screen?
[22:57] <LjL> rodolfo: « apt-cache policy libc6 » and there is no XFree86, there is X.Org, do « apt-cache policy xorg »
[22:57] <adub> yes i have no splash screen, my shutdowns are slow it doesnt show the shutdown text you know on the black screen when shutting down
[22:57] <adub> when booting up the same
[22:58] <geonerd> oops
[22:58] <dee_cz> thx for help, hopefully i wont need to come back tonight :)
[22:58] <adub> and both shutting down and booting up are slow
[22:58] <adub> i use to run 6.10 and just got back into linux not long ago
[22:58] <adub> everything ran perfectly fine shutting down and starting up
[22:58] <adub> now this is not an upgrade i formatted and installed last night
[22:58] <mhrnjad> adub: I wouldn't know what's causing that, sorry..

[22:59] <alinon> has anyone here tried Wubi?
[23:00] <Pelo> alinon, do you have a specific question about it ?
[23:00] <rodolfo> LjL: that's weird then. I got xf86-video-intel-2.1.x from my update manager and I run the installer...
[23:00] <jamie_cumbria> I have got a epson dx4450 and having trouble. I get two red lights saying ink and paper. I was led to be leave this was the scanner so I followed step on the internet and now the scanner works. I have been using dx5240 and similar drivers but as soon as I try and print I get the red lights back. Any on got this working please.
[23:00] <alinon> Pelo: I don't understand it, it is actually installing ubuntu - there seems to be some difference
[23:00] <alinon> Pelo:  So i guess that's my question, am i going to lose anything by using it?
[23:00] <LjL> rodolfo: what installer? are you on gutsy? there is no xf86-video-intel-2.1.X package in gutsy
[23:01] <Pelo> alinon, as far as I know, it creates some kind of "fake" linux partiton image on your ntfs/windows partiton and runs ubuntu from that,   you can'T just remvoe windows and run only ubuntu afterwards,  and you can'T access your ubuntu partiton from a live cd
[23:02] <xerxes1358> Guys what was the thing you have to do when you want to install metacity ?
[23:02] <alinon> Pelo: Oh right I think i read that ubuntu runs a bit slower because of that right?
[23:02] <LjL> xerxes1358: i thought metacity was the default window decomanagerwhatever in ubuntu
[23:03] <Pelo> alinon, probably,  it's not like a real install,  but I think you can run it whitout booting windows, just not sure,  it's not like a virtual machine , but a bit similar
[23:03] <rodolfo> LjL: yes, there is. I enabled releases candidates and unsupported updates repositories from synaptic and I got this file and 'xserver-xorg-video-intel'...
[23:03] <Pelo> alinon, dl the live cd and install,  there is no issue dualbooting
[23:04] <Odd-rationale> alinon: Wubi simply installs a ubuntu (7.04) on a loop-mounted file. However, you can transfer a wubi install to a hard drive install whenever you want using lubi
[23:04] <josiah> anybody know if there is a wiki cms out there? (written in PHP would be awesome) Like drupal or joomla but specifically for Wiki's?
[23:04] <alinon> Pelo: My vista installation never shows up during the install of ubuntu, so if i install it messes with the MBR
[23:04] <sam__> hello...every time i try to start a 3d game my computer freezes...any idea how to fix it other than a hardware upgrade?

[23:05] <ubotu> Official Ubuntu artwork including the Ubuntu logo can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Official
[23:05] <Pelo> alinon, I would look in the forum on this,  I know there are fixes, it's just a matter of adding a couple of lines to the /boot/grub/menu.lst file
[23:05] <LjL> rodolfo, could you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list, i'm not really familiar with the names that Software Sources gives to repositories
[23:05] <mhrnjad> alinon: you can backup the MBR, it's just 512 bytes and restore it from the live CD
[23:05] <Cpudan80> kahrytan: The bot works from private messages, /msg ubotu !thing
[23:05] <Jack_Sparrow> sam__: If you have effects turned on you might try it with them turned off
[23:06] <alinon> Pelo:  I've read that you can change something in the advanced options to prevent Grub from taking over any other drives - but i don't know what to put in the box for my paticular setup
[23:06] <erUSUL> josiah: mediawiki the wikipedia one ???
[23:06] <Pelo> alinon, are you isntalling ubuntu on a sepreate drive ? that is easy enough
[23:06] <rodolfo> LjL: I will pates the output on pastebin. just want you to know that this is the direct link to the file I'm talking about: http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/individual/driver/xf86-video-intel-2.2.0.tar.bz2
[23:06] <alinon> Pelo: yes it would be a second drive
[23:06] <josiah> erUSUL: yes... is mediawiki an application I can install onto my server and start my own wiki?
[23:07] <LjL> rodolfo: eh? that is not a *package*. that's just a tarball. it can't come from the update manager or from any repositories.
[23:07] <justin__> what is a signal 11 how do i fix it when ever i try to play a game it comes up with a signal 11
[23:07] <erUSUL> josiah: yes afaics

[23:07] <josiah> erUSUL: thank you very much
[23:07] <justin__> any game
[23:07] <justin__> urban terror
[23:07] <justin__> enemy territory
[23:07] <justin__> TC:E
[23:08] <azexian> justin__: are your graphics drivers installed
[23:08] <Pelo> alinon, you have two options, depending on how squeemish you are,  1 change the boot drive in your bios to the drive you want to use for ubuntu and just proceed with the install as usual , 2  open the box and unplug the vista drive for the duration of the installation,  ( still making sure the ubuntu drive will be the boot drive )
[23:08] <Pelo> alinon, I don'T allow private msg, please talk to me in the channel
[23:08] <Cpudan80> justin__: SEGV (seg fault), you'll have to look at the error log
[23:08] <LjL> justin__, signal 11 is segmentation fault, it can come from just about anything, it means that the program tried to touch memory it wasn't its own. it crashed, in simple words.
[23:08] <alinon> it's cool
[23:08] <rodolfo> LjL: I know. This is for those who wants to build the installer and run it with a newer version of xorg (1.4+)
[23:09] <justin__> ok
[23:09] <Jack_Sparrow> justin__: WHat video card... ati?
[23:09] <alinon> Pelo:  Yeah i considered that, but i'd rather not open my case for it
[23:09] <justin__> no
[23:09] <justin__> nvid 7600GT
[23:09] <LjL> rodolfo: well you didn't make yourself clear, you were talking about packages coming from the update manager. anyway we absolutely do NOT recommend installing things like video drivers from tarballs.
[23:09] <dee_cz> Cpudan80: that bootscreen res fix didnt work :/
[23:09] <Cpudan80> justin__: Does it always happen at a specific time --- ie. can it be traced to a certain event?
[23:09] <Cpudan80> dee_cz: What did you set it to?
[23:09] <justin__> im gettting the error logs
[23:10] <dee_cz> i tried 1024 x 768
[23:10] <justin__> but X might crash agin
[23:10] <Pelo> alinon, just change the boot drive then,  I have a 2 hdd setup myself,  and the ubuntu installer recognised xp on my second hdd,  so I hve both in the grub menu,  and should I decide to remove either hdd the other one can boot with no issue
[23:10] <Cpudan80> dee_cz: Sometimes it doesn't save those settings in the file, go back and check to be sure it saved
[23:10] <justin__> dammit have to restart X
[23:10] <dee_cz> Cpudan80: i did, it saved them, but the screen is still black (its not even black, just backlit) and the last boot took 3 mins
[23:11] <alinon> Pelo: yeah it reconizes xp fine, but it don't see my vista which uses a different type of special boot loader
[23:11] <Cpudan80> dee_cz: hrm...........
[23:11] <Cpudan80> dee_cz: And the ubuntu logo never shows up?
[23:11] <Niklas_E> anyone know how to install the drivers for ati radeon x1250?
[23:11] <rodolfo> LjL: what other choice do I have? fot (unlucky)users who has a i915-based-laptop, there aren't any other options. this is the link: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53496/
[23:11] <dee_cz> nope, i get grub, then black screen (3 mins), then login screen
[23:11] <Pelo> alinon, as a general rule of thumb , with a 2 hdd setup you want the ubuntu drive set to boot when you install,  otherwise you overwrite the mbr of one hdd with stage one of grub ,which refers to stage two on the other drive and then you can't boot if either is removed
[23:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Niklas_E: The repo version or from another source
[23:12] <NICOI69> When someone ifs free i have a ( I hope easy ) question
[23:12] <Cpudan80> NICOI69: Just ask
[23:12] <NICOI69> ok

[23:13] <NICOI69> lol ty
[23:13] <Cpudan80> NICOI69: Right click, properties, set to bottom
[23:13] <Pelo> NICOI69, right click the top pannel,  select add a pannel,  move it to the bottom and then right clicck  add to pannel,  and put the stuff you want in it
[23:13] <Niklas_E> the restricted drivers
[23:13] <Jack_Sparrow> NICOI69: is it stuck at the top or missing all together
[23:13] <NICOI69> stuck on top
[23:13] <Jack_Sparrow> NICOI69: Drag and move it..
[23:14] <jeffMASTERflex> NICOI69: usually you can just click and drag the panel down
[23:14] <alinon> Pelo:  It was my understanding that regardless of boot order, if ubuntu see the drive it will write over the mbr/bootloader - which has been my experience
[23:14] <Jack_Sparrow> NICOI69: If needed, remove a few of the icins so you can grab it
