[12:15] <ikonia> jaime this is an ubuntu support channel not gaming discussion, you may find it better to discuss in #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:16] <mon^rch> Nighthawk420: gutsy's X is wonky... compiz + opengl apps makes X crash. just a note
[12:16] <Jordan_U> Nighthawk420: What is the problem you were having with Feisty?

[12:23] <Txukie1982> hello
[12:23] <Extravert> How do I use a .deb file?
[12:23] <gnuskool_> CarlDOT: if a channel is working it'll have green below it, grey means muted, press m to unmute, use arow keys to increase volume
[12:23] <CarlDOT> every level seems to be at the highest gnuskool_
[12:23] <Turbo1> I am new to this system
[12:23] <Jordan_U> !deb | Extravert
[12:23] <ubotu> Extravert: deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click on them (Ubuntu) or right-click and select Kubuntu Package Menu->install (Kubuntu)
[12:24] <renzo17> CarlDOT: do you know what audio chipset you have? type "lspci -v" for info
[12:24] <Turbo1> Can i maybe find someone to help me
[12:24] <waziri> what is vm swappiness=0 ?
[12:24] <renzo17> !ask | Turbo1
[12:24] <ubotu> Turbo1: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:24] <Jordan_U> Nighthawk420: Ok, then do that then run "sudo ifconfig eth0" then "sudo dhclient eth0" ( connecting and configuring with DHCP ) then "sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx" ( installs the driver ) then "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" and choose "fglrx" as the driver when asked
[12:25] <jaime> so I am trying to get quicktime to work in ubuntu, what codecs do i need?

[12:25] <Frogzoo_> waziri: setting swappiness=0 isn't a great idea, it disables swap
[12:25] <beginner> i somehow can't use the wget-command properly, i always get this return ERROR 404: Not found. sb got an idea?
[12:25] <overclucker> waziri, http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/07/memory-swap-management/#comment-77307

[12:35] <Karotte> I'm trying out compiz fusion at the moment (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion), but it sheems that the CTRL-Keys doesn't work while running compiz.. any ideas why?
[12:35] <ziroday> jaime: if you already have gedit open it will open it in a tab
[12:35] <Karotte> I can't switch desktops and nothing
[12:35] <jaime> word pimp
[12:35] <Jordan_U> Nighthawk420: I am going to sleep, but once you have done that the driver will be installed, at that point either reboot or run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" to get into X
[12:36] <beginner> is there any good ubuntu tutorial online, which can be recommended
[12:36] <ziroday> beginner: for what?
[12:36] <jaime> so I just re-edited my sources.list and now i want to install w32codecs and I know I can do it through medibuntu, does anyone know where the tutorial is?
[12:36] <beginner> in general
[12:36] <ziroday> beginner: ubuntuguide
[12:36] <beginner> thx
[12:36] <manny> didnt realise picasa has a linux port !!!
[12:36] <ikonia> jaime don't use medibuntu
[12:36] <ziroday> beginner: help.ubuntu.com
[12:36] <ikonia> jaime just install them through synaptic
[12:37] <jaime> i have adept, is and it doesn't show up on there
[12:37] <yjwong> ikonia, libdvdcss isn't shown in Synaptic due to licensing issues
[12:37] <ikonia> jaime you need to enable the correct rpo
[12:37] <ikonia> yjwong no, it doesn't but he's not aksing to install libdvdcss
[12:37] <jaime> ikonia, im new to ubuntu, english please
[12:38] <ikonia> jaime that is english, if you read the link you where sent it will walk you through it
[12:38] <yjwong> jaime, you wanted to install codecs?
[12:38] <ikonia> !restrictedformats >jamie
[12:38] <jaime> yeah, what link?
[12:38] <ikonia> !restrictedformats |jamie

[12:38] <gnuskool_> CarlDOT: what kernel u got, if you dont know, put this in term, uname -a
[12:38] <Sp4rKy> ikonia: it's jaime not jamie :)
[12:39] <ikonia> ahhh
[12:39] <ikonia> well spotted
[12:39] <ikonia> thanks
[12:39] <Sp4rKy> np
[12:39] <jaime> i didn't even notice

[12:39] <jaime> ok ikonia i already did all that, and it still didn't show up under adept
[12:39] <ikonia> jaime that doesn't tell you to use adept
[12:39] <ikonia> so you've not read it
[12:39] <renzo17> CarlDOT: i've been doing some reading and it appears upgrading to (compiling) the latest alsa-driver should make it work
[12:39] <ikonia> that tells you the exact command you need
[12:39] <jaime> so should I get synaptic?
[12:39] <CarlDOT> gnuskool_: Linux carl-laptop 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Fri Aug 31 00:55:27 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[12:40] <bastid_raZor> beginner http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[12:40] <ikonia> jaime no - you should follow the docuemtn exactly
[12:40] <vanessa> holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[12:40] <CarlDOT> sounds hard renzo17
[12:40] <renzo17> CarlDOT: it does but i promise its really not..........you want me to walk you through it?
[12:40] <CarlDOT> I'd appreciate that :)
[12:41] <CarlDOT> Thank you :)
[12:41] <renzo17> go to www.alsa-project.org and download the latest alsa-driver to your home folder
[12:41] <CarlDOT> That's the one above desktop isn't it?
[12:41] <renzo17> CarlDOT: alsa-driver-1.0.14
[12:42] <renzo17> CarlDOT: it is yeah but you can download to desktop if you like, makes no difference
[12:42] <jaime> ikonia im using kubuntu, is that going to make a difference?  Because what I'm using is adept installer and those instructions dont work
[12:42] <CarlDOT> Downloading
[12:42] <CompJunki> sup
[12:42] <CarlDOT> lil bit slow
[12:42] <CarlDOT> aaaaaaaah got it
[12:43] <renzo17> CarlDOT: did you save to home/desktop?
[12:43] <ikonia> jaime I'll say it again, those instructions do not tell you to use adept or synaptic - they tell you the exact commands to use. Its very clear your not reading it
[12:43] <CarlDOT> It's on my desktop but I can move it if it makes it easier
[12:43] <livingdaylight> i'm torn between pclos and ubuntu... i see pclos although much smaller community and backing is tops on distrowatch.... is there a good reason for this?
[12:43] <CarlDOT> That I do know how to do
[12:43] <CarlDOT> lol
[12:44] <renzo17> CarlDOT: nah thats fine, open up a terminal and run "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[12:44] <gnuskool_> OMG in 10 minutes I'll be officially late for meeting my girlfriend for lunch, just thot I'd share that...c yaz
[12:45] <CarlDOT> Done
[12:45] <renzo17> CarlDOT: now run "cd Desktop"
[12:45] <CarlDOT> Done
[12:46] <haka4> rere_cutey
[12:46] <renzo17> CarlDOT: then "tar xjf alsa-driver*"
[12:46] <stefg> livingdaylight: consider that ubuntu / kubuntu / xubuntu count as three distros on DW.... so to have correct numbers you'll have to sum that up. PCLOS is /far/ behind if you look at that
[12:46] <haka4> rere
[12:46] <CarlDOT> Done with no output, just a new command line
[12:47] <renzo17> CarlDOT: fine, now "cd alsa*"
[12:47] <frojnd> !java
[12:47] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[12:47] <CarlDOT> Done
[12:47] <renzo17> CarlDOT: now we are going to compile it. so your terminal will spew out loads of text but thats fine
[12:47] <CarlDOT> k
[12:47] <livingdaylight> stefg, ahhh.... good point.... is ubuntu stable though.... i've just had someone tell me it is... also that ubuntu doen't give true root priviledges
[12:48] <renzo17> CarlDOT: run " ./configure "
[12:48] <bastid_raZor> true root~!
[12:48] <renzo17> CarlDOT: let me know when it finished
[12:48] <ikonia> livingdaylight someone telling you that is ill-informed
[12:48] <CarlDOT> Done
[12:48] <Jordan_U> !sudo | livingdaylight
[12:48] <ubotu> livingdaylight: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:48] <renzo17> CarlDOT: now run " make " and wait till its finished
[12:49] <CarlDOT> You weren't kidding about the spewing of text lol
[12:49] <livingdaylight> ikonia, ahhh.. maybe just a ubuntu hater
[12:49] <renzo17> CarlDOT: lol nope
[12:49] <ikonia> livingdaylight, no just ill-informed
[12:49] <stefg> livingdaylight: 1.) stable software is an illusion :-)  2.) ubuntu has its rough edges, but the most usable day to day distro on the desktop yet (what else do you expect to hear in #ubuntu? :-o ) 3.) ubuntu uses sudo instead of a root account
[12:49] <renzo17> CarlDOT: makes you feel all geeky inside doesnt it
[12:50] <stefg> !sudo | livingdaylight
[12:50] <ubotu> livingdaylight: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:50] <CarlDOT> lol, I'm too much of a new born when it comes to this to feel anywhere near geeky mate! lol!
[12:50] <CarlDOT> Gimme a month though and I'll be on my way
[12:50] <CarlDOT> lol
[12:50] <renzo17> lol......took me a few months but i finally realised my "inner geek"
[12:51] <CarlDOT> I'm hoping to replace Vista with Ubuntu eventually, at the moment though it's just a partition
[12:51] <CarlDOT> Then I'll be truly happy
[12:51] <CarlDOT> lol
[12:51] <stefg> !enter | CarlDOT
[12:51] <ubotu> CarlDOT: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:52] <CarlDOT> sorry stefg
[12:52] <gnuskool_> why do people dislike vista?
[12:52] <CarlDOT> Old habits :(
[12:52] <CarlDOT> I just don't like windows full stop gnuskool_. It's always caused me problems.
[12:53] <CarlDOT> Done renzo17
[12:53] <renzo17> CarlDOT: realised i may have missed something in the configure step, but we'll keep going and see if this works anyway......if not, we'll try again with the correction
[12:53] <CarlDOT> ok
[12:53] <renzo17> CarlDOT: sweet, finally run " sudo make install "
[12:53] <mon^rch> vista is "too" secure
[12:53] <Jordan_U> gnuskool_: I don't like the lack of freedom
[12:53] <jaime> ok so I followed the advice here...https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats...verbatim, and xine still wont play .avi files
[12:54] <renzo17> jaime: why not use vlc, its in the repos and has all codecs built in?
[12:54] <CarlDOT> Done and I have a message saying that the channels are muted by default
[12:54] <renzo17> jaime: sudo apt-get install vlc"
[12:54] <jaime> word pimp, is it easy to use?
[12:54] <mon^rch> jaime: vlc is nice, will work and has some nice skins ;)
[12:54] <TataraKutere> hi, i have a trouble with NTFS Configuration Tool, it does not do it's job, i can't write to partitions i just formatted today with GPartEd
[12:55] <renzo17> CarlDOT: ignore that for the mo. you need to reboot, and then see if your sound works........
[12:55] <renzo17> CarlDOT: come back and let me know how it goes
[12:55] <TataraKutere> should i reinstall it?
[12:55] <jaime> mon^rch, i dont have to install codecs or anything to play .wmv or avi, it works perfect as is?
[12:55] <CarlDOT> Ah, will do. See you in 2
[12:55] <renzo17> TataraKutere: did you use " sudo apt-get instal ntfs-config "?
[12:56] <TataraKutere> not sure, i've been busy with things on the system for couple of days, maybe i installed it from synaptic.. renzo17
[12:56] <fluxdude> I don't normally run ubuntu, but I have one which has a bind dns server on it, and I don't know why in the logs I get permission denied to one of the zone files when the bind process is running as named, and the file is -rw------- 1 named named   718 2007-09-06 12:34 named.file
[12:56] <fluxdude> any ideas?
[12:56] <mon^rch> jaime: vlc plus gstreamer-good, bad, and ugly codecs (incl multiverse) ;)
[12:57] <jaime> mon^rch, just go to adept and I should find those codecs?
[12:57] <renzo17> jaime: no codecs required for vlc, all copiled into/built into the player itself
[12:58] <mon^rch> yup
[12:58] <nonickforme> Can anyone help me with getting php5-memcache package installed?
[12:58] <nonickforme> Found the package here: http://ftp.cica.es/ubuntu/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/php-memcache/
[12:58] <mon^rch> (I install the codecs anyway)
[12:58] <TataraKutere> renzo17: i think i had done it, tried now 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove etc...
[12:58] <jaime> wow, i wish someone would have told me that before I muffed around with xine and totem for a week of my life
[12:58] <realnewguy> hey guys ive got ubuntu fiesty, how do i upgrade to gutsy?
[12:58] <CarlDOT> Rebooting in Linux is so much quicker
[12:58] <CarlDOT> Still no sound renzo17
[12:59] <renzo17> TataraKutere: go to a terminal and run " ntfs-config " (if it complains about permissions slap a sudo in front
[12:59] <renzo17> )
[12:59] <realnewguy> anyone?
[12:59] <ikonia> realnewguy you don't
[12:59] <realnewguy> oh ok
[12:59] <stefg> fluxdude: there is #ubuntu-server , asked there, too?

[12:59] <ubotu> renzo TataraKutere: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[12:59] <TataraKutere> renzo17: could you write the commands for me, i'm to new to do that..:(
[12:59] <ikonia> n
[12:59] <realnewguy> ah kk, ty
[12:59] <ikonia> oops
[01:00] <TataraKutere> ok, I'll try
[01:00] <realnewguy> just having problmes with my ATi Radeon :S
[01:00] <jaime> ok so Ive been using azureus and every time i go to open it, it opens but then closes about ten seconds later, any suggestions?
[01:00] <ikonia> realnewguy thats not going to be fixed by moving to gusty
[01:00] <realnewguy> ive got a ATI Radeon X800, and it doesnt run beryl or compiz fusion or anything :S
[01:00] <Jordan_U> jaime: switch to the open source JVM
[01:00] <ikonia> jaime try launching it from a terminal command line so we can get some debugging. I suspect its a jvm issue
[01:00] <realnewguy> speaking of that, how do i set my xorg.conf back to its default settings?
[01:00] <CarlDOT> I agree with what people were saying about Vista too gnuskool_, the continual pop-ups and having to edit security settings is the biggest pain in the neck that I have experienced on Windows apart from the crashing
[01:00] <jaime> ok how do I do that?
[01:01] <Jordan_U> realnewguy: debxconfig
[01:01] <jaime> or what do i type i should say
[01:01] <ikonia> realnewguy ati cards/drivers are a real pain
[01:01] <TataraKutere> it warns as  "can't find device with uuid... etc"..:(
[01:01] <ikonia> jaime oopen a terminal and type the name of executable
[01:01] <Jordan_U> ikonia: realnewguy But they are about to get a LOT better :)
[01:01] <realnewguy> debxconfig in terminal?
[01:01] <ikonia> Jordan_U if you read the press release they are
[01:01] <realnewguy> really? how are they meant to get alot better?
[01:01] <stefg> jaime: the ubuntu package is (or was) broken. First get an update, delete your ~/.azureus -dir. If it still doesn't work uninstall the ubuntu-package and get the sourceforge installer
[01:01] <TataraKutere> renzo17: it warns as  "can't find device with uuid... etc"..:(
[01:01] <jaime> word, whats the paste bin website?
[01:01] <renzo17> Jordan_U: one week isnt it? still no aiglx (yet!!!!)
[01:02] <savvas> realnewguy: you should've kept a backup of the file, as all manuals say about backup and then tell you how to install/use beryl
[01:02] <realnewguy> oh :S
[01:02] <renzo17> TataraKutere: i have no idea what that means, sorry
[01:02] <ikonia> !pastebin >jaime
[01:02] <gnuskool_> CarlDOT: im getting a new pc that comes with it pre installed, oh well, will just have to format it clean :D
[01:02] <TataraKutere> ok, thanks
[01:02] <Jordan_U> ikonia: Or if you look at the benchmarks, or the fact that they are releasing specs ( without an NDA )
[01:02] <renzo17> CarlDOT: any luck yet?
[01:02] <nonickforme> Anyone know how I can get around\fix this? http://pastie.caboo.se/94552
[01:02] <ikonia> Jordan_U I hope your right, we'll see ;)
[01:03] <ikonia> Jordan_U ati experience leaves me wanting proof not talk
[01:03] <CarlDOT> My laptop is only a few days old, the pop-ups have already got me wanting to throw it out of the window
[01:03] <CarlDOT> No sound yet renzo17
[01:03] <jaime> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36542/
[01:03] <Jordan_U> ikonia: I have never believed ATI before
[01:03] <renzo17> nonickforme: install phpapi?
[01:03] <ikonia> Jordan_U exatly, so we'll see what comes out
[01:03] <stefg> nonickforme: does a simple 'sudo apt-get -f install' resolve the dependncy?
[01:03] <nonickforme> renzo17, ive got the dev package installed
[01:03] <Jordan_U> ikonia: I think this is different though, only time will tell
[01:04] <renzo17> Jordan_U: ikonia check phoronix, they been testing the drivers recently with pretty spectacular result
[01:04] <nonickforme> stefg, it solves it by removing this package.
[01:04] <gnuskool_> CarlDOT: follow the instructions here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449&highlight=riptide
[01:04] <CarlDOT> I have been back into alsamixer in terminal and made sure that the options available are unmuted
[01:04] <CarlDOT> ok
[01:04] <CarlDOT> Thank you :)
[01:05] <stefg> nonickforme: i see... so you got to track down phpapi-20060613+lfs and install that first
[01:05] <nonickforme> hrm ok
[01:05] <renzo17> CarlDOT: have you checked alsamixer again make sure they arent muted?
[01:05] <CarlDOT> yes renzo17
[01:05] <renzo17> CarlDOT: missed last post sorry, you want to try it the way i should have explained earlier
[01:05] <renzo17> ?
[01:05] <nonickforme> It calls it a virtual package http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/virtual/phpapi-20060613+lfs
[01:06] <CarlDOT> okay, lol
[01:06] <renzo17> CarlDOT: open a terminal and run " cd Desktop/alsa* "
[01:07] <CarlDOT> Done
[01:07] <nonickforme> stefg, its a "virtual package", i do have all 3 things it provides installed.
[01:07] <ulive> Hi :) I need some help with the Ubuntu Live CD version 7.10 Tribe 5
[01:07] <renzo17> CarlDOT: then run " ./configure --with-cards=hda-intel --with-sequencer=yes "
[01:07] <savvas> ulive: try #ubuntu+1 :)
[01:07] <ulive> tnx
[01:07] <jaime> ikonia, did you see the pastebin thing
[01:08] <stefg> nonickforme: yeah, reading about it as i type.... clever new concept of which i do not have any clue yet :-\
[01:08] <CarlDOT> Done
[01:08] <cornell_work> Having some difficulty getting feisty fawn installed on a Dell GX260.  First try with Livecd went ok, but the machine wouldn't boot after a short while.  Tried again, kept failing partitioning harddrive.  Tried alternate i386 disk, install went well, but won't boot from drive.  Did  observe machine reporting low battery (CMOS, I assume, it's a desktop) and having no configuration, and having to search for IDE configuration.
[01:08] <nonickforme> Is there any way to just remove the dependancy on it? The packages binaries should still work.
[01:08] <renzo17> now do "make" and then "sudo make install" again..........when all thats finished reboot and let me know if you have sound
[01:08] <CarlDOT> will do, thank you :)
[01:09] <Orthenner>
[01:09] <Orthenner>
[01:09] <cornell_work> I'm assuming that this is not so much an ubuntu problem, but a hardware problem.  Can anyone confirm that it works well on a Dell GX260?
[01:10] <Orthenner> ctulhu eat my brain
[01:10] <Nighthawk420> hey everyone IM ON UBUNTU NOW!!!!!!!!!
[01:10] <Nighthawk420> thank yall so much
[01:10] <renzo17> Nighthawk420: congrats, happy ubunting
[01:10] <savvas> Nighthawk420: welcome on board
[01:10] <stefg> cornell_work: Define 'failed to boot'. if the bios keeps loosing settings (most notably the LBA setting for the hd) any OS would have trouble finding its boot files
[01:10] <Nighthawk420> tyty il be back tonight i need help settin stuff up i gotta go to school blahhh
[01:10] <Nighthawk420> peace
[01:10] <cornell_work> Cool Nighthawk420
[01:10] <Orthenner> savvas - do you love ctulhu???
[01:10] <SoulChild> Hey all, when i shutdown my notebook i get a bunch off messages from NetworkManager, is there a way to deactivate ?
[01:11] <cornell_work> stefg: restart, blank screen, nada
[01:11] <savvas> Orthenner: ?
[01:11] <stefg> cornell_work: so it's obviously the bios, which doesn't even perform a POST
[01:12] <Orthenner> savvas oh sorry! Greatest Ctulhu
[01:12] <savvas> Orthenner: njet panjimaem rskir :)
[01:12] <manny> how do you do web albums in picasa2... i only see blogger option
[01:13] <Orthenner> ????? what????
[01:13] <savvas> Orthenner: #ubuntu-ru
[01:13] <cornell_work> So this does sound like hardware, stefg, (Don't know about the POST, there are times when monitors don't wake up in time to display that) ?   Any chance a fresh battery would help?  Or does this sound like a dead BIOS?
[01:13] <Orthenner> savvas - i don't understand you
[01:13] <savvas> Orthenner: same here :)
[01:13] <Orthenner> savvas - i am not russian
[01:13] <nonickforme> stefg, heh, dpkg --force-all
[01:14] <kogler> Hi, I'm adjusting the resolution for my tty consoles... but I keep getting errors on bootup. I can't remember exactly the wording, but it was some thing about the number I gave with "vga=789" being invalid.
[01:14] <savvas> Orthenner: your ip is :) and by the way, it's not a good idea to be root and irc
[01:14] <kogler> Anyone else had such an issue?
[01:14] <cornell_work> Orthenner, your message at 0710 was in Russian, or something that looked like it
[01:15] <CarlDOT> Still no sound renzo17
[01:15] <nooga> mm
[01:15] <ulive> savvas: It seems quite dead in +1 .. perhaps the answer lies here.. do you know if you can open the CDrom drive on the LIVE cd?
[01:15] <nooga> is it really not possible to dist-upgrade from 6.06 to 7.04?
[01:15] <Orthenner> Cornell work - oooops!!!
[01:15] <stefg> cornell_work: (POST == power on self test). The messages about installed memory, detected IDE drives and stuff, which come up even before grub... I can't tell if the bios is broken, or just needs a fresh battery (even the mobo itself can be bad). See if you can finf hardware info on the web
[01:16] <renzo17> CarlDOT: ok open a terminal and run " modprobe snd-hda-intel " (put a sudo infront if it complains about permissions)
[01:16] <savvas> ulive: probably you can, the live cd is loaded as much as possible in memory. but if you try and run something that will need to load something from the cd, then probably it'll be broken :)
[01:17] <batags> how can i change background colors ?
[01:17] <Hatapka> IRC client Xchat, pls setting http proxy???
[01:17] <ulive> savvas: I just got an answer.. it seems you can't... but tnx for the answer :)

[01:19] <renzo17> thats fine then, now try all the following too " modprobe snd-pcm-oss "    " modprobe snd-mixer-oss "    " modprobe snd-seq-oss " then run alsamixer, check everything is unmuted and test your sound

[01:24] <DuClare> glick, I'm quite sure it's none of what you mentioned
[01:24] <DuClare> glick, try ethtool
[01:24] <stefg> kogler: you need information which vesa-modes your bios accepts. if you pass an invalid number, you'll get an error. so carefully step up reso and color depth to see what is supported, and what not
[01:25] <savvas> nooga: there are several packages that are not supported anymore, so it's better to upgrade using the "alternate" version: http://releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/

[01:26] <cornell_work> Thanks stefg, what I meant was that the POST is sometimes offered before the monitor's ready to display, so I don't always see one.  The time that the low battery message came out was when the POST should've been displayed, never seen that one before.  But thanks again, I wanted a reality check before I went too far.  I'm surprised that there's a hardware problem, it's surplused from my company and three years old, as opposed to used unt

[02:02] <brownie17> hi guys, today i was trying to install gtkpod from source, and when i went to configure it said 'requests libgpod >=  0.5.2, currently 0.4.2 installed.' or something. okay, simple enough to fix, just install the newest version of libgpod right? wrong, 0.4.2 is the newest version. can anyone suggest anything?

[02:03] <brownie17> kitche, ummm.. i did that? i said so in my post
[02:03] <steel_lady> stefg, I understand file permissions and I was using SD cards normally but now suddenly  ubuntu started to act like it didn't do before with SD (after upgrading), refusing to change permissions and not wanting to write to SD
[02:03] <ubotu> me: KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu.

See http://kubuntu.org) for more information.
[02:03] <elfgoh> dystopianray: then when is it coming?
[02:03] <stefg> steel_lady: yeah... gparted is of very limited use with ntfs... so rather use some windows-tool to deal with windows partitions
[02:03] <dystopianray> elfgoh: there won't be another alpha, beta is the next release
[02:04] <steel_lady> stefg, I can not use win program since I can not enter windows any more
[02:04] <kitche> brownie17, well you couldn't have since 0.5.2 is the newest version
[02:04] <stefg> steel_lady: check in tehe user-admin applet if you belong to right groups ... fuse, admin or whatever is necessary
[02:04] <elfgoh> dystopianray: ic.. so the release schedule is nt updated.
[02:04] <brownie17> kitche, if so, i can't find it. sorry if i'm being a complete retard here.
[02:04] <dystopianray> elfgoh: that's right, there won't be a tribe 6 release

[02:05] <brownie17> kitche, thanks. i'll look it up
[02:05] <stefg> steel_lady: looks like gparted  may have eaten your ntfs partition... hope you have a backup or nothing important on it
[02:05] <jrib> __ele__: change your script so that the last line redirects output to a file:    (cd /media/srveats02/Java/ESS/; filename=`ls ess* | grep jar | tail -n1`; java -Xmx1G -jar $filename) > /path/to/some/file 2>&1

[02:06] <omagreb> hello I am a newbie in need of some dire help
[02:06] <giggsey> How can I completely remove my mysql-server installation?
[02:06] <nbkr> gustavo, Amavais expects something like mail.yourdomain.com for "hostname"
[02:06] <steel_lady> stefg, luckily I didn't have so many important things, just one
[02:06] <nbkr> giggety, sudo apt-get --purge remove mysql-server
[02:06] <omagreb> i just installed ubuntu 7.04 on an older dell with an embeded i810 video chipset
[02:06] <gustavo> nbkr: i changed it on postfix - main.cf
[02:06] <ikonia> n
[02:06] <omagreb> all is well but i get a black "band" across the middle of the screen
[02:07] <ikonia> oops
[02:07] <steel_lady> but stefg, I had a friend who died who did resizing in dapper without the problem and I think it was with gparted
[02:07] <brownie17> kitche, before i install 0.5.2 from source do i need to uninstall 0.4.2?
[02:07] <__ele__> jrib: ok! I will change it...be back in a minute
[02:07] <nbkr> gustavo, maybe amavis has another config file?
[02:07] <kitche> brownie17, if you wish to
[02:08] <TheZanke> I have Ubuntu Linux with VMware Server, I am on a Vitrual XP Pro and have VMware tools installed.... How do I drag and drop items from Ubuntu to XP?
[02:08] <TheZanke> i have seen it done
[02:08] <stefg> steel_lady: gParted sometimes works, sometimes not. that depends on several factors, but I've come to the conclusion that gparted is so slow and unreliable that i prefer not to trust it
[02:08] <Dark_Rain> stefg, i agree with yoy
[02:08] <Dark_Rain> you
[02:09] <Dark_Rain> usualy ... is not such a good ideea to resize a partition
[02:09] <idefixs> omagreb: have you verified that the monitor itself is ok?
[02:09] <dystopianray> TheZanke: I don't think it's possible with linux
[02:10] <TheZanke> dystopianray, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3XyXl0I3Wg that guy has my EXACT setup and he does it... but i dont know if he is using VMware Server, Workstation, or Player
[02:10] <steel_lady> stefg, that is strange for me, I thought that for those sensitive issues linux is always more realible. Since this issue is so important, I don't know why they didn't put priority for this kind of program...
[02:10] <idefixs> TheZanke: there is a way to create a "shared folder" for host and guest. however i cant remember th how
[02:10] <dystopianray> TheZanke: probably workstation
[02:11] <gholen> Frogzoo_, Got it working :) Thanks for the helt :)
[02:11] <kitche> TheZanke, that feature is only in vmware workstation
[02:11] <dystopianray> TheZanke: vmware server isn't intended for regular desktop usage and has no need for drag and drop or other nonsense
[02:11] <gholen> *help
[02:11] <__ele__> jrib: Hmm: it seems that by clicking as normal user on that .desktop file it can't find the java path
[02:11] <jrib> __ele__: what's the exact error?
[02:11] <__ele__> jrib: java not found
[02:12] <m4st3r> hi all.
[02:12] <jrib> __ele__: how did you install java?
[02:12] <stefg> steel_lady: as long as you deal with native linux things, gparted works. the problem is ntfs and the fact that it is proprietary. MS won't tell the specs, so everything in Linux about ntfs is reverse-engineerd.
[02:12] <m4st3r> I installed compiz-fusion on kubuntu 7.04 but I cant see window name line....
[02:12] <m4st3r> How can i solve it?
[02:12] <jrib> m4st3r: #ubuntu-effects can help you with that
[02:13] <m4st3r> jrib: thanks
[02:13] <__ele__> jrib: installed that bin file cause I need original jre
[02:13] <__ele__> and set the path in the bash
[02:13] <Solaris444> hi everyone
[02:13] <__ele__> *bashrc
[02:13] <dystopianray> __ele__: why not install the jre through apt?
[02:13] <elfgoh> dystopianray: anyway, y the change in schedule
[02:13] <steel_lady> stefg, look at this: nina@minino:/media/disk$ sudo chmod 777 1INFO   chmod: changing permissions of `1INFO': Read-only file system
[02:13] <stefg> !effects | m4st3r
[02:13] <ubotu> m4st3r: For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[02:13] <__ele__> dystopianray: how? is this possible now?
[02:13] <Solaris444> excuse me guys, but am I able to ship ubuntu to my customers?
[02:13] <dystopianray> __ele__: this has been possible for as long as I can remmeber
[02:14] <stefg> steel_lady: look at dmesg for 'filesystem panic' messages
[02:14] <steel_lady> stefg and after that it tells me again that I do not have permission
[02:14] <jrib> !java > __ele__ (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:14] <steel_lady> stefg, I don't know how to do that
[02:14] <Solaris444> If someone asks me to build them  a pc, can i say "sure, do you want windows or do you want ubuntu?"
[02:14] <Ben_Cs> hello
[02:14] <Dark_Rain> Solaris444, ?
[02:14] <Dark_Rain> yes you can say that Ubuntu is GPL
[02:14] <echelon-3> hey
[02:14] <echelon-3> hwo do i SSH into my uni with ubuntu
[02:14] <Dark_Rain> windows is not
[02:15] <dystopianray> there are trademark issues though
[02:15] <Solaris444> Dark_Rain: I mean can ubuntu come pre-installed on a machine i build and am going to be paid for.
[02:15] <stefg> steel_lady: just type 'dmesg | less' in a console and read the babble ... you don't need to understand everything, but if the kernel really complains, you'll recognize
[02:15] <Dark_Rain> echelon-3, ssh localhost -l username
[02:15] <Ben_Cs> my ipod mounts automatically.   i can eject it only with "sudo eject". how can i eject it without "sudo"?
[02:15] <Dark_Rain> or
[02:15] <jrib> echelon-3: ssh user@host  in the terminal
[02:15] <Dark_Rain> ssh ipaddress -l username
[02:15] <echelon-3> what about password
[02:15] <dystopianray> echelon-3: ssh uniuser@uniserver
[02:15] <jrib> echelon-3: you will be prompted
[02:15] <Dark_Rain> it will prompt for one
[02:15] <echelon-3> ok
[02:15] <ootm> I want to see if my ubuntu server has been powered off without being shutdown. What's the best way to check that? or whats the best indicator in the system logs to show a clean shutdown?
[02:16] <ticked> mornin all, no newbie questions today, just lurking to see what i can learn
[02:16] <Dark_Rain> last
[02:16] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: you only need to umount it then you can disconnect it
[02:16] <Dark_Rain> ootm, last is the command
[02:16] <ootm> Dark_Rain, thanks
[02:17] <Solaris444> dystopianray: care to enlighten me?
[02:17] <echelon-3> whats this RSA key host BS
[02:17] <__ele__> jrib: if i install java just as the bin, do i have to set the path somewehere else too, then only in the .bashrc's?
[02:17] <echelon-3> when i try to SSH in it says host key verification failed
[02:18] <XenThraL> hi, having trouble building wxSQlite3, ./configure just gives me: "configure: error: cannot run /bin/bash build/config.sub" anyone know how I can fix this?
[02:18] <dystopianray> Solaris444: i am not a lawyer, i'd recomend contacting canonical about it
[02:18] <steel_lady> stefg, http://pastebin.com/m7b7a0cd4
[02:18] <Solaris444> ok thanks
[02:18] <Dark_Rain> echelon-3,
[02:18] <nbkr> echelon-3, Host keys are used to identify a host. To make sure you're connection to the correct one.
[02:18] <echelon-3> ok
[02:18] <stefg> steel_lady: your filesystem is toast
[02:18] <echelon-3> so how do i make it not care
[02:18] <gordonjcp> Solaris444: yes, it can
[02:18] <arjayc> Solaris444: There is also http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/licensing to look at
[02:18] <jrib> __ele__: I'd recommend using the packaged version since security updates are then taken care of for you.  But, yes, you would need to set the path in your GNOME environment in a file like ~/.xprofile or just use the full path to the java executable in your script
[02:19] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: but when i "umount" it the busy light indicator is on. if i "eject" it, only then it's off
[02:19] <nbkr> echelon-3, There is no way to make it not care. Host Key Verfication is an important part of SSH security.
[02:19] <steel_lady> stefg, it does this for every of my 4 SDs. what can I do?
[02:19] <dystopianray> Solaris444: http://www.ubuntu.com/aboutus/trademarkpolicy
[02:19] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: the light indicates that data is being transferred?
[02:19] <nbkr> echelon-3, But you can delete the approriate value in ~/.ssh/know_hosts. Than you will be asked again if you trust that host.
[02:19] <__ele__> jrib: yea i will do install the packages...just wanted to know how to deal with bin files anyway:) thx for your help!!
[02:20] <jrib> __ele__: np
[02:20] <Dark_Rain> echelon-3, in you home directory you will find .ssh/known_hosts
[02:20] <dystopianray> Solaris444: looks like you'll need a trademark license
[02:20] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: yes.
[02:20] <renzo17> hi all, i have Fesity set up as a primary domain controller for a small XP Pro based network. if i was to have to reinstall and set it up again can i use it with the accounts on the windows pc that i already have setup to use the pdc without it creating a new local account on the client machines? i ask because we had a massive HD failure a while ago, and i replaced fedora with fesity, set it...
[02:20] <renzo17> ...up with the same settings, but when people went to log back in on their xp machines, it created a new local account for them........is this avoidable?
[02:20] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: data is being transferred after you unmount it?
[02:20] <Dark_Rain> open it with a text editor and remove that line that contain the host you are trying to connect
[02:20] <Solaris444> ah i see
[02:20] <jrib> echelon-3: 'man sshconfig'  will have an option somewhere that will "make it not care"
[02:20] <stefg> steel_lady: hmmm... do you have another system where you can verify if the SDs are really broken? Can be a read problem, so the kernel only thinks the filesystem is corrupt
[02:20] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: it's what the light says
[02:20] <ticked> wait, i do have a newbie question, anyone know where i can get a list of terminal commands?
[02:21] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: what is transferring data to it?
[02:21] <Dark_Rain> and then try to connect again with ssh
[02:21] <Pici> !terminal | ticked
[02:21] <ubotu> ticked: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[02:21] <jrib> echelon-3: oops, that should be 'man ssh_config'
[02:21] <dystopianray> ticked: ls /bin /sbin /usr/bin /usr/sbin
[02:21] <steel_lady> stefg, I am using them normally on my PDA
[02:21] <XenThraL> anyone can give me a hand at all?
[02:21] <Dark_Rain> XenThraL,
[02:21] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: don't know (the thing is in WinXP the light blinks for a sec. and then stops, so it's safe to remove. in ubuntu it blinks all the time till "eject")
[02:22] <Dark_Rain> what is the problem
[02:22] <Dark_Rain> :)
[02:22] <XenThraL> ->hi, having trouble building wxSQlite3, ./configure just gives me: "configure: error: cannot run /bin/bash build/config.sub" anyone know how I can fix this?
[02:22] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: as long as it's unmounted it's safe to remove
[02:22] <XenThraL> :)
[02:22] <steel_lady> stefg, I had a lot of experience of problems with SD cards on ubuntu
[02:22] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: you sure?
[02:22] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: yes
[02:22] <echelon-3> dude
[02:22] <echelon-3> there is too much there
[02:22] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: ok thanks
[02:22] <echelon-3> doesnt anyone know ?
[02:23] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: the device is designed with windows in mind, and is deceptive when used with a different system
[02:23] <Dark_Rain> seems like your config.sub is missing
[02:23] <XenThraL> it isn't
[02:23] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: becuase windows has no concept of mounting or unmounting
[02:23] <Pici> echelon-3: Were you asked a yes or no question when you tried to ssh out?
[02:23] <Dark_Rain> echelon-3, you cand safly remove that file
[02:23] <XenThraL> tried changing it to executable
[02:23] <XenThraL> but that didn't do any good
[02:23] <stefg> steel_lady: your pda maybe happy with a broken fat filesystem and happily write on it until the inevitable happens. backup the data if you can and reformat the cards with ubuntu., or try a fsck on them (unmount them before)
[02:23] <nbkr> echelon-3, To get back to your system via ssh, just delete the appropriate value in ~/.ssh/known_hosts - than you will be asked again.
[02:23] <nbkr> echelon-3, the errormessage should tell you which line to delete.
[02:24] <Pici> nbkr: He isnt trying to ssh into his own system.
[02:24] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: but for some reason the "eject" script does the unmounting in the "windows" way :)
[02:24] <Dark_Rain> Pici,  i saw that
[02:24] <echelon-3> ok
[02:24] <ticked> thanks Pici and dystopianray
[02:24] <Dark_Rain> and is ok for any host
[02:24] <XenThraL> Dark_Rain: could you perhaps then try to build it, see if you encounter the same issue?
[02:24] <savvas> Ben_Cs: yes, eject saves all the pre-cached stuff and then removes the icon from the desktop, and then you can remove it safely
[02:25] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: it doesn't unmount, it ejects
[02:25] <IdleOne> XenThraL: you have build-essential installed
[02:25] <IdleOne> ?
[02:25] <XenThraL> yes
[02:25] <nbkr> Pici, Yes, not to localhost. But I assume that it is his/her system he/she is sshing to.
[02:25] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: but ejection has umount as a part of it i guess
[02:25] <nbkr> Pici, just another maschine :-)
[02:25] <Pici> nbkr: s/he said that it was their university's server that they were trying to ssh into.
[02:26] <nbkr> Pici, oh - ok, I missed that line. Sorry.
[02:26] <realnewguy> hey sorry if this offtopic but is gnome-look.org website down atm? i cant access it
[02:26] <Pici> nbkr: No need to be sorry, just fyi-ing
[02:26] <dystopianray> Ben_Cs: well whatever script your using may be calling unmount before calling eject, but umount and eject are two different things
[02:26] <anandanb1> realnewguy: its working fine for me
[02:27] <nbkr> realnewguy, gnome-look.org is working form my side.
[02:27] <XenThraL> hum, seems like I can build an older version of the package, 1.6, just fine
[02:27] <Ben_Cs> dystopianray: i see. ok, thanks
[02:27] <XenThraL> problem is in this new configure script I suppose
[02:27] <IdleOne> !eyecandy > realnewguy check out the msg from ubotu
[02:27] <IdleOne> gnome-look works here also
[02:27] <realnewguy> cool ty

[02:28] <ubotu> omagreb: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:29] <taime1> i have disabled my startup programs in the sessions manager, but they keep starting up, what gives?
[02:29] <IdleOne> omagreb: anything specific or you need help with the entire OS?
[02:29] <realnewguy> strange i can view other sites np's but just gnome look?
[02:29] <brownie17> realnewguy, magic
[02:29] <realnewguy> sorry magic?
[02:29] <omagreb> i just installed ubuntu 7.04 and i get a black band across the screen
[02:29] <omagreb> the video chipset is an i810e
[02:29] <savvas> realnewguy: try holding shift and press the reload button
[02:30] <dystopianray> omagreb: what if you use the vesa driver?
[02:30] <realnewguy> still nothing :S
[02:30] <omagreb> yeah i probally could do that but I have used releases prior to 7.04 and did not have this problem
[02:31] <Shay_cyber5482> hi all plz need some help here .. i am trying to install the ubuntu 7.04 server edition . my computer have 8 giga of ram but the installion got stuck , when i am using just 2g ram it working ok ?
[02:31] <IdleOne> realnewguy: you using any popup blockers or anything else that might be blocking that site only?
[02:31] <realnewguy> ive got adblock and noscript installed
[02:31] <IdleOne> realnewguy: disable adblock and try reloading
[02:31] <savvas> realnewguy: www.gnome-look.org ?
[02:31] <ybite> tha
[02:31] <realnewguy> yup
[02:31] <ybite> huy
[02:32] <dystopianray> Shay_cyber5482:  are you installing 32-bit ore 64-bit ubuntu?
[02:32] <mon^rch> 8 gigs of ram O_o
[02:32] <nbkr> Shay_cyber5482, If you have more than 4GB Ram you have to use the 64 Bit version.
[02:32] <omagreb> it is almost as if 1/4 of the screen is blank
[02:32] <brownie17> what is the command to uninstall something you installed from source?
[02:32] <brownie17> is it make uninstall?
[02:32] <savvas> realnewguy: check the domain again, maybe you mistyped it :)
[02:32] <ybite> nothing
[02:32] <anandanb1> Shay_cyber5482: install with 2gb RAM and then add after you install
[02:32] <Shay_cyber5482> 64 bit
[02:32] <realnewguy> disabled adblock, still not working :S
[02:32] <IdleOne> realnewguy: now disable noscript and give it a shot
[02:33] <realnewguy> kk
[02:33] <Dark_Rain> brownie17,
[02:33] <nbkr> brownie17, there is no general way to uninstall something you installed from source.
[02:33] <Dark_Rain> apt-get remove pkg-name
[02:33] <brownie17> nbkr, yeah, i figured that.
[02:33] <Shay_cyber5482> dystopianray i am trying to install the 64 bit version
[02:33] <brownie17> Dark_Rain, from source apt-get will still work?
[02:33] <Dark_Rain> ohh sorry
[02:33] <Dark_Rain> :)
[02:33] <Dark_Rain> my mistake
[02:33] <taime1> why would my disabled startup programs Continue To Start Up?
[02:33] <brownie17> Dark_Rain, it's cool.
[02:33] <realnewguy> still not working :S
[02:33] <realnewguy> weird!
[02:33] <nbkr> brownie17, If the developer managed to add a "uninstall" target in the makefile, it could work that way. But most of the makefiles don't have that.
[02:33] <IdleOne> realnewguy: you must have some addon that is blocking that site disable all or one at a time until you figure out wich one
[02:33] <Dark_Rain> in general make remove or make uninstall  should work
[02:34] <brownie17> nbkr, something needs to be done about that.
[02:34] <realnewguy> ok
[02:34] <nbkr> Ok - most of the make files I have seen didn't have that :-)
[02:34] <IdleOne> realnewguy: have you been playing with iptables/firestarter?
[02:34] <anandanb1> Shay_cyber5482: If you have no problem in installing with 2GB of RAM you can do that first and add the other 6GB later
[02:35] <realnewguy> nope
[02:35] <realnewguy> havent touched iptables, or even installed firestarter
[02:35] <nbkr> brownie17, You can use "checkinstall"  instead of "make install". Checkinstall is a small script that will create a .deb file.
[02:35] <IdleOne> realnewguy: port forwarding / blocking?
[02:35] <nbkr> You can install and uninstall that.
[02:35] <omagreb> has anyone had problems with the i810e video chipset using ubuntu 7.04
[02:35] <realnewguy> i can view other sites no problem, but just gnome look i cant access anymore
[02:35] <brownie17> nbkr, o rly? and that will work with any source?
[02:35] <realnewguy> ive got portforwarding for gtk-gnutella network
[02:35] <jrib> !checkinstall > brownie17 (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:36] <nbkr> !checkinstall > nbkr
[02:36] <brownie17> jrib, nbkr that is so cool
[02:36] <IdleOne> realnewguy: wouldnt affect it. possible you got banned from the site?
[02:36] <realnewguy> ive only ever dl a package or two from gnome-look, id be very suprised if theyd banned me :S
[02:37] <realnewguy> ive never entered the forums on that site(if they have a forum)
[02:37] <Lacrymology> can someone help me set up my ubuntu so's I can write in japanese without it changing the locale in half my programs?
[02:37] <brownie17> guys, i just spent two hours compiling gtkpod from source, and all the tiny little support packages it needs, and then i got this error which i don't know how to fix, "gtkpod: error while loading shared libraries: libgpod.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
[02:37] <doktoreas> hi to all
[02:38] <giggsey> How do I force dapper to remove mysql-server?
[02:38] <doktoreas> got a trouble with my laptop..as i start ubuntu, the fan stays always on
[02:38] <doktoreas> nver stops
[02:38] <giggsey> It's still got some files on there
[02:38] <doktoreas> *never
[02:38] <fannagoganna> hi, is there an installation CD of Ubuntu 7.04 that allows one to keep his LVM partitions and data, such as what happened with Ubuntu 6.06?
[02:38] <dyrne> brownie17: never had an issue with the gtkpod in repos up to ipod version 5.5 gen
[02:38] <IdleOne> realnewguy: no other addons?
[02:38] <fannagoganna> Even the alternate Ubuntu 7.04 CD only allows me to delete previously existing LVM partitions
[02:38] <realnewguy> apart from gmail nope
[02:38] <realnewguy> gmail extension i mean
[02:39] <brownie17> dyrne, it doesn't support video playlists, it cannot tag videos as Tv shows, and it deleted all my audio playlists everytime i open it. according to the changelog all of these problems have been solved in the newer version
[02:39] <IdleOne> realnewguy: I dont think that would have anything to do with it but disable and see
[02:39] <realnewguy> ok
[02:39] <Zweistein> Hello, I've upgraded to Feisty Fawn and sleeping on my laptop (by using fn+suspend) no longer works. However, using uswsusp s2ram --force works. How do I change the mechanism that is triggered by the Suspend key to s2ram --force?
[02:40] <omagreb> need help with i810
[02:40] <Aminux> how do i install more fonts in Ubuntu?
[02:40] <realnewguy> still not working :S
[02:40] <IdleOne> !fonts | Aminux
[02:40] <ubotu> Aminux: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[02:40] <Lacrymology> !japanese | Lacrymology
[02:40] <Aminux> thankios
[02:40] <echelon-3> hy
[02:40] <echelon-3> hey
[02:40] <IdleOne> realnewguy: sorry I dont know what else it could be
[02:40] <Lacrymology> damn, I thought that'd work
[02:40] <echelon-3> ive SSH'd into my uni
[02:40] <echelon-3> how do i copy files from my uni onto my own HDD
[02:41] <Dark_Rain> scp
[02:41] <Dark_Rain> if you have linux
[02:41] <realnewguy> ok ty anyway
[02:41] <taime1> why would my disabled startup programs Continue To Start Up?
[02:41] <echelon-3> ubuntu i have
[02:41] <Dark_Rain> scp then
[02:41] <echelon-3> can you give me a simple command that will work
[02:41] <echelon-3> to xfer all files in a dirctory from my uni onto my HDD
[02:41] <DuClare> echelon-3, assuming you can ssh to your uni, scp username@uni:/path /local/path/
[02:42] <omagreb> this is pointless
[02:42] <IdleOne> realnewguy: hang around and try asking now and then someone will be able to figure it out
[02:42] <jrib> echelon-3: you can use sftp or scp on the command line or just go to file -> connect to server in nautilus (the file manager) and use the gui
[02:42] <DuClare> echelon-3, to copy directories recursively, use the -r flag
[02:42] <Dark_Rain> DuClare,  you are fasst
[02:42] <Dark_Rain> :P
[02:42] <echelon-3> i dont get it
[02:42] <DuClare> Dark_Rain, I'm not. :\
[02:42] <echelon-3> ok i am in the directory right now i want to copy all the contents
[02:42] <echelon-3> onto some folder on my current HDD
[02:43] <Dark_Rain> scp * username@yourcomputer:/path/to/copy
[02:43] <nbkr> echelon-3, You don't need ssh connection open for coping files. Just go to "places-> connect to server" on your Gnome Desktop.
[02:43] <Dark_Rain> or like nbkr
[02:43] <Dark_Rain> :D
[02:43] <echelon-3> default port for this
[02:43] <Dark_Rain> i'm more of command line freak
[02:43] <echelon-3> nkbr ?
[02:44] <Dark_Rain> 22
[02:44] <DuClare> of course there are some apps that bring sftp to gui. eg. with konqueror you can enter sftp://host:port/path
[02:44] <echelon-3> uh
[02:44] <Aminux> What does this mean?  " Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed."
[02:44] <nbkr> echelon-3, nbkr is my nickname - not an application or something :-)
[02:44] <echelon-3> i did it and nothing happened?
[02:44] <DJ-_-> Hi, I am installing ubuntu-server-7.04. I have installed it earlier on this machine too, but this time the install is stuck on "Select and Install Software" on 85%, I have tried a couple of times now but have not been successful, I also verified the integrity of the cd which shows that the cd is valid. Any ideas?
[02:44] <DuClare> echelon-3, what did you do exactly?
[02:44] <jrib> Aminux: what did you do to get that?
[02:44] <echelon-3> click connect
[02:45] <Aminux> i did this gksu nautilus /usr/share/fonts/truetype
[02:45] <echelon-3> it just closes the APP
[02:45] <echelon-3> gg
[02:45] <echelon-3> i dont even know what the yourcomputer is suppose to be
[02:45] <jrib> Aminux: nautilus should have still opened up?
[02:46] <DuClare> echelon-3, are you at the uni or home right now?
[02:46] <echelon-3> home
[02:46] <nbkr> echelon-3, You're using gnome?  It'll ask for your password just like it does with ssh
[02:47] <Aminux> i meant copy anything inside /usr/share/fonts/truetype
[02:47] <DuClare> and then will copy
[02:47] <DuClare> to whichever path you CD'd to.
[02:47] <jrib> Aminux: what are you trying to accomplish?
[02:48] <rm130> renzo17, hello?
[02:48] <Aminux> im trying to install a couple of new fonts
[02:48] <jrib> !fonts > Aminux (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:48] <renzo17> rm130: hi
[02:48] <rm130> I'm the guy from yesterday
[02:48] <rm130> trying to get 3d working
[02:48] <rm130> do you remember?
[02:48] <jrib> Aminux: you can use ~/.fonts as your user
[02:48] <renzo17> of course, any luck?
[02:48] <DigeratiX> does edubuntu come with any porn filtering software?
[02:48] <taime1> why would my disabled startup programs Continue To Start Up in gnome?
[02:48] <rm130> well I haven't gotten the chance until now after I left yesterday
[02:48] <skoenman> does anbody know what the max space is that a NAS can handle?????
[02:49] <Aminux> jrib: thats exactly where im getting my directions from
[02:49] <rm130> on synaptic I installed unichrome
[02:49] <faileas> skoenman: more than you can put on a system ;)
[02:49] <renzo17> DigeratiX: not sure but i beleaive ubuntu christian edition does, dans guardian or something
[02:49] <rm130> but that removed the xserver-xorg-video-via
[02:49] <jrib> Aminux: is there a reason you are not just using ~/.fonts?
[02:49] <DigeratiX> k
[02:49] <IdleOne> taime1: how did you disable them?
[02:49] <skoenman> faileas so you say more than 10TB
[02:49] <renzo17> rm130: what removed it?
[02:49] <taime1> IdleOne: sessions manager
[02:49] <Pici> DigeratiX: I'm not sure. #edubuntu may provide the answer for you.
[02:49] <DigeratiX> ok
[02:49] <rm130> synaptic, after I installed xserver-xorg-video-unichrome
[02:50] <faileas> skoenman: probably. a NAS is little more than a special purpose system
[02:50] <skoenman> yeah well
[02:50] <renzo17> rm130: and have you tested to see if 3d is working?
[02:50] <skoenman> faileas we do cctv systems and we have worked out for 44 cameras to record 30 days we nee about 10TB
[02:51] <Aminux> jrib: i have to say that im not yet familiar with linux,so i dont know what ~/.fonts means
[02:51] <rm130> not yet, I also forgot how to add that 1 line into my xorg file
[02:51] <echelon-3> hy
[02:51] <echelon-3> hey
[02:51] <echelon-3> in ubuntu
[02:51] <faileas> if your file systems can handle it, and you have enough network IO, you shouldn't have an issue
[02:51] <Pici> !enter
[02:51] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[02:51] <echelon-3> how can i see how much bandwidth i am using
[02:51] <echelon-3> lol :)
[02:51] <beginner> is there any difference between the desktop and the server version, besides the gui?
[02:51] <skoenman> faileas what filesystem do you suggest???
[02:51] <faileas> skoenman: it will be a hardware bottleneck, not a software bottlenext
[02:51] <faileas> *neck
[02:51] <faileas> erm
[02:51] <skoenman> faileas i use ext3
[02:51] <renzo17> rm130: i cant even remember what the line was. can you?
[02:51] <skoenman> k
[02:51] <faileas> ext3 would work
[02:52] <skoenman> cool thanks
[02:52] <renzo17> option vbe true or something?
[02:52] <jrib> Aminux: ah, ~ just means /home/YOUR_USERNAME .  .fonts will be hidden by default so, as your user (not root/sudo) open nautilus and go to view -> show hidden files.  If .fonts does not yet exist, create it and then just copy your fonts in there
[02:52] <nbkr> echelon-3, there is the console command iftop - or you could use the system monitor panel applet.
[02:52] <rm130> renzo17, no but I remember that it went under: Section "Device"
[02:52] <faileas> skoenman: you will probably need to worry about network bottlenecks, and hard drive bottlenecks though
[02:53] <IdleOne> taime1: I am guessing that the changes you are making in Sessions Manager are not being saved but I dont know how to make it so it saves them
[02:53] <skoenman> faileas were most probably gonna put in gigabit switches so that should sort it
[02:53] <taime1> crummy
[02:53] <faileas> skoenman: and hard drives on raid, i suspect
[02:53] <skoenman> faileas yes raid 0
[02:53] <IdleOne> taime1: find out where that data is saved and see if you cant edit the config file
[02:54] <faileas> yeah, should not be an issue then ;)
[02:54] <skoenman> faileas why???
[02:54] <Aminux> jrib: it just says permission denied
[02:54] <jrib> Aminux: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[02:54] <renzo17> ok i got it, rm130 , i'll port the instructions in a paste bin
[02:54] <renzo17> !paste
[02:54] <ubotu> 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)
[02:55] <faileas> skoenman: why not? if hardware can handle it the san should handle it ;p
[02:55] <rm130> renzo17, thanks a lot
[02:55] <skoenman> faileas ok cool
[02:55] <Shay_cyber5482> hi can someone tell me shortly about the software "sun grid" ? (what is the purpose of the software etc..)
[02:55] <Shay_cyber5482> sun grid engine
[02:55] <skoenman> here comes a 20drive pc ....LOL
[02:55] <hendrixski> umm, this morning my laptop just stopped working off of battery.  The battery monitor recognizes the battery, and that it's charged, but as soon as I unplug the power cable it turns off as if the battery weren't even there :-(
[02:55] <kane77> how do I create/connect to bluetooth PAN? or how do I make ad-hoc wifi network?
[02:56] <hendrixski> It's old enough that it's not worth taking it to a shop, what do I do?
[02:56] <rm130> hendrixski, your battery is gone bad I guess
[02:56] <stefg> hendrixski: that probably means that a cell has burst inside the battery pack
[02:56] <nanonyme> might or might not be worth it to buy a new battery
[02:56] <nanonyme> depends a bit
[02:57] <alcoholic> any good firewall for ubuntu ?
[02:57] <hendrixski> stefg, rm130, nanonyme,  I have 2 batteries though, and neither of them work on it... which makes me think it's a problem with the laptop itself
[02:57] <renzo17> alcoholic: firestarter / iptables
[02:57] <AndrewB> !firewall | alcoholic
[02:57] <ubotu> alcoholic: 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).
[02:57] <nanonyme> ah
[02:58] <hendrixski> alcoholic, the linux kernel comes with a firewall inside of it, if you want to monitor it then install firestarter :-)
[02:58] <kauer> hendrixski: do you have another laptop you could test the battery in?
[02:58] <renzo17> rm130: have a look, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36564/
[02:58] <hendrixski> kauer, I do not, nobody at my LUG has a similar laptop
[02:58] <stefg> hendrixski: yeah... true. so the switching logic might have gone bad. Does it happen from live CD, too?
[02:59] <rm130> renzo17, Thanks. What's the command to be able to edit the xorg.conf?
[02:59] <rm130> renzo17, nevermind lol
[02:59] <hendrixski> stefg, oh, so it may be a software thing you think?
[02:59] <rm130> See that you already put the instructions :D
[02:59] <nn-laptop> help! I installed a ubuntu system it gets to the boot menu then all text disipers no boot info --- Nothing ;;; when it gets to graphic mode gdm you see the cursor for a secound then it switches video mode then nothing i can even get to a shell please help me fix this?
[02:59] <kauer> hendrixski: well, you might try the vendor or your local computer store. Even just putting a mltimeter across the terminals would inducate if there is a basic problem...
[02:59] <renzo17> quick question all, is glxgears a valid test to see if 3d is working?
[02:59] <nanonyme> not really
[02:59] <renzo17> rm130: line 3 of the pastebin
[02:59] <stefg> hendrixski: just to verify that it's not just an acpi /apm error
[02:59] <nanonyme> at least if you're interested of knowing if you have direct rendering on
[02:59] <Vendeta> has anyone got ereseva working??????? (its like gtalk with voip on linux)
[02:59] <nanonyme> i've heard glxgears can do emulation
[03:00] <hendrixski> kauer, wow, I totally didn't think of that
[03:00] <renzo17> nanonyme: i see, so hows a good way to test it?
[03:00] <nanonyme> renzo17, glxinfo|grep direct
[03:00] <alcoholic> 2.6.20-15-server #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 07:41:34 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[03:00] <kauer> hendrixski: it's just a battery...
[03:00] <Pingviller> hey guys
[03:00] <alcoholic> so it dont have iptables
[03:00] <alcoholic>  :s
[03:00] <renzo17> nanonyme: thanks
[03:00] <Pingviller> I just found my harddrive full
[03:00] <Pingviller> and the files that filled it up can't be seen :(
[03:01] <kauer> hendrixski: what kind of laptop is it?
[03:01] <hendrixski> stefg, cool well, I'm dual booting Ubuntu feisty and edgy, I guess I'll try it on edgy
[03:01] <hendrixski> kauer it's a toshiba portege tablet PC
[03:01] <stefg> hendrixski: does this relate to the latest kernel update in any way? Like this was the first boot after kernel update?
[03:01] <nbkr> Pingviller, Try to empty the trash. Gnome and KDE put a hidden Trash folder on every drive. Even on USB - Sticks.
[03:01] <rm130> renzo17, weird the command didn't work
[03:01] <kauer> hendrixski: toshiba is a reputble brand; the local dealer should be able to help.
[03:01] <hendrixski> kauer, now, that kind of test they can do on the battery and on the laptop hardware itself right?
[03:01] <nbkr> Pingviller, if that doesn't help there are some more tools to locate the files.
[03:01] <Pingviller> nbkr: trash is empty
[03:02] <renzo17> did you put the # in? i just put there to show it was a command, start ttyping the command from gksudo onwards rm130
[03:02] <nbkr> Pingviller, What drive is it, that is full. The normal harddisk of the PC or an external disk?
[03:02] <rm130> renzo17, yeah that's what I did
[03:02] <hendrixski> stefg, I don't think so, I did my updates last week... I usually do them every month or two
[03:02] <renzo17> rm130: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:02] <Shay_cyber5482> hi, i want to download software named "sun grid engine" in the website i have 2 download format : rpm or tar.gz .. for ubuntu system what format to download ?
[03:02] <Pingviller> nbkr: I just got one disk :)
[03:03] <stefg> hendrixski: ok, so that aparently  doesn't relate...
[03:03] <nucco> hi
[03:03] <Geophage> i'm running ubuntu on a g3 imac, which is having trouble booting after a power outage. nautilus won't start, there are clock application errors, and this happens even after booting from a live cd. any ideas?
[03:03] <nucco> is it possible to do webfiltering with squid?
[03:03] <hendrixski> stefg, why does the new kernel have even more ACPI problems?
[03:03] <rm130> renzo17, gedit: command not found
[03:03] <renzo17> Shay_cyber5482: have you searched synaptic first for the package?
[03:03] <renzo17> you using gnome/xfce/kde?
[03:03] <nbkr> Pingviller, Ok than run "du -hs /* 2>/dev/null" on the console (without the quotes of course). That will show you where most of the space is used.
[03:03] <hendrixski> stefg, I mean, ubuntu feisty just always had problems waking up certain devices on this thing, like the USB drive, etc.
[03:03] <stefg> hendrixski: i wasn't saying it has any more or less acpi problems... i was just running down the checklist for probable hints
[03:04] <jono> anyone know how to stop a device being busy - namely a sound card - no running processes are using it - can I force it to flush out all data and become free again?
[03:04] <Shay_cyber5482> renzo what is "synaptic" ? (sorry about my english)
[03:04] <rm130> renzo17, installing gedit
[03:04] <koshari> can anyone tell me why samba is so slow?
[03:04] <Pingviller> nbkr: it's all in /home
[03:05] <stefg> jono: the sound daemon might be hogging it. killall esd ?
[03:05] <nbkr> koshari, did you mount a share with mount -t smbfs ?
[03:05] <hendrixski> stefg, ah,  Ok.  So I'm gonna try booting into my other ubuntu partition and see if it works... then if not I'll take it to a computer store like kauer suggested
[03:05] <renzo17> rm130: gedit is just a text editor.......there are others
[03:05] <jono> stefg: nope
[03:05] <nbkr> Pingviller, Then run "du -hs /home/* 2>/dev/null" - that will show you which homedir is wasting disk space.
[03:05] <realnewguy> hey guys is there some way to scan a windows partition for viruses/trojans with ubuntu?
[03:05] <rm130> hey renzo17, if I run glxgears how can I find out that 3d is working?
[03:06] <renzo17> RealNclamav
[03:06] <renzo17> realnewguy: clamav
[03:06] <renzo17> i got that wrong, refresh the pastebin for the proper command
[03:06] <hendrixski> oh, jono the NY Loco team wanted to talk to you about how to throw a conference, and get event insurance and all that stuff
[03:07] <jono> hendrixski: right
[03:07] <rm130> brb gonna restart X
[03:07] <Shay_cyber5482> renzo17 : from where i can download the package "synaptic" ?
[03:08] <Pingviller> nbkr: hmm feels like some numbers are missing
[03:08] <renzo17> Shay_cyber5482: System -> Admin -> Synaptic Package Manager ....................you already have it
[03:08] <hendrixski> jono, I may be the only one awake from the NY group, but, I think the question was if you know how others did it... since we think you'd be the right guy to talk to about something like that
[03:08] <nbkr> Pingviller, Pardon?
[03:08] <realnewguy> so i can scan windows for viruses with clamav?
[03:09] <taime1> clamwin
[03:09] <jono> hendrixski: its best to ask on loco-contacts :)
[03:09] <koshari> nbkr i dont want to mount the share, i just want to browse to it and move it, iam getting pultry 4mbs where on the same connection with apache the file runs atr full network speed (100mbs)
[03:09] <renzo17> realnewguy: should be able to yeah if you can see the windows share from your linux box
[03:09] <Pingviller> nbkr: 2 GB are not listed in the directory that should be the directory where it is
[03:09] <hendrixski> jono Ok
[03:09] <AngryElf> how do I add themes that have been downloaded from gnome-look.org?
[03:09] <TimeTraveller> anyone know a good ssh klient that can store passwords secure ? would be nice if it supports VNC also...
[03:09] <realnewguy> yup my windows partition is mounted, and i can look through it
[03:09] <Pingviller> which is the exact amount of space that vanished when I cancelled a torrent-file
[03:10] <stefg> AngryElf: just drag'n'drop it into the theme-manager
[03:10] <realnewguy> ive got ubuntu and windowsxp on the same HD, just i partitioned it in half
[03:10] <nbkr> Pingviller, Maybe there are just not accessible for your user. Try to do the command with sudo: "sudo du -hs /home/* "
[03:10] <sluimers> My printer doesn't print very well... every colour image comes out faint blue
[03:10] <mon^rch> AngryElf: drag&drop them onto the theme manager
[03:10] <AngryElf> stefg: it says invalid file format -- iom' dragging in the *gz file
[03:10] <Shay_cyber5482> renzo17 : after i runing synaptic what version of "Sun grid engine 6.1" i need to download ? rpm or tar.gz ?
[03:10] <hendrixski> jono, is that an IRC channel? it's empty :-(
[03:11] <Pingviller> nbkr: still no trace of it
[03:11] <nbkr> koshari, Browsing and moving? In Nautilus?
[03:11] <Pingviller> nbkr: got a friend saying I should remove my profile and make a new one to solve it :(
[03:11] <jono> hendrixski: its a mailing list on lists.ubuntu.com :)
[03:11] <stefg> AngryElf: then the package might contain subarchives...
[03:11] <dyrne> sluimers: what driver ya using? check linuxprinting.org with google search like 'site:linuxprinting.org printermodel'
[03:11] <Pingviller> but that just feels so incredibly lame
[03:11] <renzo17> Shay_cyber5482: neither, everything in synaptic is already built specially for ubuntu (.deb files) just tick the box (if you can find it) and then click Apply, it will then download and install the package for you
[03:11] <hendrixski> jono,  oh... :-( I should've googled.  Cool, thanks for you time :-)
[03:11] <sluimers> dyrne, I use the reccomended driver bj8pa06n.upp
[03:12] <koshari> nbkr , yes browsing using nautilas / network
[03:12] <nbkr> Pingviller, I wouldn't do that - only as kind of last resort. Is it a special file your are searching for. Did you try to find it with "find" ?
[03:12] <rm130> okay my computer jammed up when I tried glxgears
[03:12] <Frogzoo> after every boot, to run the vmplayer (d/ld from vmware, not the repos) I have to rerun the vmware-config.pl script - any ideas how to make the config permanent?
[03:12] <renzo17> rm130: what does " glxinfo | grep direct " output?
[03:12] <sluimers> dyrne, it's a canon smartbase MP360
[03:12] <jono> hendrixski: np :)
[03:13] <rm130> direct rendering: Yes
[03:13] <Pingviller> nbkr: I don't know the filenames, just that freeloader ran out of space on harddrive and cancelled the download and I then deleted it but now the files are missing instead of deleted
[03:13] <rm130> renzo brb
[03:13] <AngryElf> stefg: doing "install theme" on the *.theme file doesn't work either :(
[03:13] <AngryElf> ....i get this on a bunch of themes
[03:13] <AdvoWork> hi there. is anyone on here using zimbra?
[03:13] <nbkr> Pingviller, Whats freeloader?
[03:13] <Pingviller> nbkr: torrent-client
[03:13] <Ayabara> !ati
[03:13] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:14] <Pingviller> ATI/nVidia made easy.. Envy-script, it kicks some royal behinds
[03:14] <stefg> AngryElf: then you might not have installed the right gtk-engines. Ususally the theme description should provide info which engine it's written for
[03:14] <nbkr> Is there a hidden folder .freeloader on your homedir?
[03:15] <taime1> why would my disabled startup programs Continue To Start Up in gnome?
[03:15] <nbkr> koshari, Is the samba server setup correctly - seems that it is a problem there and not necessarly on the client.
[03:15] <HaNNiBaL80> hello
[03:15] <visof> hello
[03:16] <rm130> renzo17, now glxgears works for some reason. I didn't do anything
[03:16] <Pingviller> nbkr: not that I can see I get alot of others but not .freeloader/
[03:16] <rm130> like I can see those gears moving
[03:16] <HaNNiBaL80> when using terminal server client to acess win2003, how can I switch back to ubuntu ?
[03:16] <cypherdelic> My gnome is crashing when i start GL Apps, i get back to gdm :( for example Cedega OpenGL Test
[03:16] <renzo17> rm130: so did you makes the changes and restart x?
[03:16] <rm130> on xorg?
[03:16] <cypherdelic> yes
[03:16] <visof> hi
[03:17] <renzo17> rm130: yeah
[03:17] <nbkr> Pingviller, What does df -h report? Just to make sure the disk is really full and not only freeloader reporting it.
[03:17] <rm130> renzo17, yeah I did when I restarted and tried glxgears it jammed up
[03:17] <renzo17> rm130: but now works ok?
[03:17] <Pingviller> nbkr: I'm using file browser to check available space
[03:17] <rm130> glxgears does, but like programs don't
[03:17] <AngryElf> stefg: i install gnome-art...maybe i'm missing something else?
[03:17] <mariqn> How to save files over NTFS when i'm using Ubuntu 7.04 ?

[03:28] <anandanbu> renzo17: can you help me with it
[03:28] <anandanbu> ubotu: thanks
[03:28] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[03:28] <Dr_willis> anandanbu,  i find it 'best' to keep windows and linux both on their own Hard drives. Or failing that. with a single hd. Install windows first to the first partition, (hda1) then let  (k)ubuntu have the rest of the 'unalllocated' space and auto-partition the unallocated space automaticiallye
[03:29] <Dr_willis> The GpartedLivecd (about 50mb download) is darn handy for 'resizing' partitions. Gparted/qtparted is on the ubuntu live cds also.
[03:29] <renzo17> anandanbu: Dr_willis may be more help than me
[03:29] <stefg> anandanbu: be aware that you will loose the grub bootloader in your MBR because windows just overwrites it. Have your Ubuntu CD ready or d/l the super grub disk to be able to boot to ubuntu again
[03:29] <anandanbu> Dr_willis: actually i have installed gparted in my system but not able to partititon it
[03:30] <Dr_willis> anandanbu,  note the use of 'live cd' :) every time we mention gparted.
[03:30] <koshari> well i set the samba server up all the ways i could and the xfer rates are still lousy, it has to be a sanba thing as apache serving the same files across the same network it full ethernet speed.
[03:30] <anandanbu> stefg: i have the ubuntu7.04 cd would that solve my problem
[03:30] <renzo17> rm130: the openchrome driver is available in gutsy apparently.........so must be quite new.....
[03:30] <Dr_willis> You can NOT (well dont want to) resize the partition you got mounted/booteed off of.
[03:30] <felipernb> hello, i have an acer laptop with sis760 video card. the monitor screen can display until 1280x800, but my external monitor handles better 1440x900, i want to set each one with its own resolution but with the clone of the image, is it possible?

[03:40] <Morrowyn> it crashes doesn;t it?
[03:40] <Pici> CompJunki: I don't care if you like Ubuntu or not. I just ask that you take your offtopic stuff to #ubuntu-offtopic.
[03:40] <DuClare> ccccs, umm, if the new ISP uses DHCP like I assume your old one did, then there's nothing to change
[03:40] <CompJunki> xorg should be ditch
[03:40] <CompJunki> and re-done
[03:41] <ccccs> DuClare but i got a new username/password
[03:41] <CompJunki> in 32bit GUI
[03:41] <nbkr> Pingviller, Sorry I have been offline for a while. You could do "ls -R /home > ~/files.txt" to have all files below /home listed in the file /home/youruser/files.txt. But that are sure very much files to have a look at.
[03:41] <Morrowyn> oops sorry cccs wrong person :P
[03:41] <DuClare> ccccs, uhh o_O username/password for what?
[03:41] <cypherdelic> I have another problem to solve: At bootup i get maintenance shell because of fsck cant find the UUID, i simply can press Enter followed by CONTROL-D and everything works, but its annoying me
[03:41] <jrib> CompJunki: if you don't have a support question or are helping someone else, please move the discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic.  and stop pressing enter to break up your thoughts!  no more warnings
[03:41] <ccccs> my connection.. oh.. im not very good with computers.. sorry
[03:41] <cypherdelic> anyone does know how to fix that
[03:41] <Dr_willis> cypherdelic,  edit the fstab , fix the uuid entry.
[03:41] <Pingviller> nbkr: that would mean a crapload of files :P
[03:41] <ccccs> im just telling you what they told me
[03:41] <Morrowyn> was meant at cypherdelic
[03:41] <ccccs> Morrowyn okay heh :P
[03:42] <Morrowyn> :)
[03:42] <NET||abuse> Anyone ever used a nice app for viewing mail log files? something that can group up details to do with one incoming email, de-obfusticate the huge bulk of information in those logs?
[03:42] <DuClare> ccccs, you don't usually need an username/password to actually CONNECT (unless it's a dial-up)
[03:42] <cypherdelic> Morrowyn: yes i.e glxgears crashed
[03:42] <cypherdelic> Dr_willis: how do i know which is the correct one?
[03:42] <ccccs> DuClare okay, awesome then :D
[03:42] <ccccs> thanks
[03:42] <nbkr> Pingviller, correct. It will list all files. If you do "ls -Ra > ~/files.txt" it will even list the hidden ones.
[03:42] <DuClare> ccccs, I believe that username/password pair is for email or some personal settings that you can change on your isp's site or something..
[03:42] <CompJunki> :(
[03:42] <Dr_willis> !uuid
[03:42] <ubotu> To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  sudo blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[03:43] <ccccs> aah i see.. something like a profile/account then
[03:43] <cypherdelic> Dr_willis: UUID=c15898bc-ec27-478a-b6f5-dcffa133dc14 /               reiserfs notail          0       1
[03:43] <CompJunki> you hate me ?
[03:43] <DuClare> ccccs, yep
[03:43] <cypherdelic> cypherdelic@HaeckFlaisch:~$ !uuid
[03:43] <cypherdelic> bash: !uuid: event not found
[03:43] <Dr_willis> cypherdelic,  that !uuid factoid is worth reading.. OR ya can always use the old fashioned /dev/hd## or whatever style info.
[03:43] <Dr_willis> cypherdelic,  thats A BOT command.
[03:43] <stefg> cypherdelic: first run 'sudo blkid' to refresh /etc/blkid.tab' than take a look at that file and compare to /etc/fstab if the UUID's are the same. Finally inspect the # kopt= .... -line in /boot/grub/menu.lst if your kernel options are set to the right uuid after update-grub
[03:43] <Dr_willis> irc 101. :)
[03:44] <Dr_willis> !bot

[03:45] <juan> can you remove the firefox crash warning
[03:45] <danielax> Hey guys. I've got firefox <IP_ADDRESS>. It silently fails to start. Some probing later, it says it's missing libxpcom.so. A LD_LIBRARY_PATH to it's location removes the error, but it still fails silently, error code 1. Google doesn't seem to have anything beyond that.
[03:45] <danielax> juan: what crash warning? can you elaborate?
[03:46] <stefg> danielax: is that on 32bit or 64 bit?
[03:46] <danielax> stefg: 32, p3 coppermine
[03:46] <AboSamoor> can you tell me about a tutorial or thread to learn how to start SWAT service ?
[03:46] <juan> danielax:  when you shutdown your system without clossing firefox it thinks it crashed, so when you start firefox it pops up a warning
[03:47] <Pici> !swat | AboSamoor this might help
[03:47] <ubotu> AboSamoor this might help: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[03:47] <cypherdelic> stefg: the UUID from blkid, fdisk and menu.lst (kernel line and kopt) are equal
[03:47] <ccccs> i still prefer 1.5 over 2.0 .. crashes less for me
[03:47] <danielax> juan: so if you close firefox before shutdown - does it go away?
[03:48] <stefg> danielax: strange... shouldn't happen. have you tried a fresh profile (without extension and default skin) . Could be some extension is ill-behaving
[03:48] <cypherdelic> I have another problem to solve: At bootup i get maintenance shell because of fsck cant find the UUID, i simply can press Enter followed by CONTROL-D and everything works, but its annoying me
[03:48] <cypherdelic>  the UUID from blkid, fdisk and menu.lst (kernel line and kopt) are equal
[03:48] <juan> yes, its because firefox cant tell the diference between a shutdown and a crash
[03:48] <danielax> stefg: trying that now
[03:48] <fn0rd> Ello
[03:49] <danielax> juan: sorry - I'm a little confused. Can you close ff manualy before shutting down?
[03:49] <cypherdelic> stefg , Dr_willis : Do you have any further ideas?
[03:49] <inc_> hi all
[03:50] <fn0rd> When I used breezy, on booting up there was a screen with a list of set up tasks going by
[03:50] <juan> danielax: yes but im trying to reconfigure mine so i dont have to
[03:50] <fn0rd> but now with feisty its just a progress bar graphic
[03:50] <fn0rd> on feisty how can i get the list on bootup?
[03:51] <stefg> cypherdelic: hmmm.... then maybe rebuilding the initrd could help (not sure if there's any uuid info stored within). sudo update-initramfs
[03:51] <danielax> stefg: that workd a treat - thanks :)
[03:51] <danielax> juan: ok - now I understand
[03:51] <W9ZEB> is there a reason that aliass added to ~/.profile would not be sourced when logging into 7.04
[03:51] <danielax> juan: try looking in about:config
[03:51] <W9ZEB> specifically after gnome launches, when opening an xterm
[03:52] <genii> fn0rd: for one time only, hit ESC during GRUB, edit default kernel line that is loading to remove splash and quiet. For Every time, make these changes in the /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:52] <danielax> juan: (ie type about:config into the ff address bar)
[03:52] <cypherdelic> stefg can't i just disable fsck at bootup?
[03:52] <nour> hey people, can somebody guide me i want to connect to the internet with ubuntu 7.04 with a virtualbox
[03:52] <inc_> i have a problem, with key layout. Dapper with Gnome (may some libs broken) http://pastebin.ca/684016  I can not change layout at all. How can i fix it please?
[03:52] <excalibas> Can someone help with a Wubi instalation that went wrong?
[03:52] <cypherdelic> stefg: i mean, it doesnt work so atm so its useless
[03:52] <giRL> surabaya
[03:52] <fn0rd> Thanks genii!
[03:53] <danielax> excalibas: I suggest trying theWubi support channel
[03:53] <MOTZ> that is toooo long
[03:53] <juan> danielax: ive tried that but theres only 1 option and it stops the tabs being restored
[03:53] <MOTZ> last time it was muchg more shirt
[03:53] <stefg> cypherdelic: yes, by setting the dump and pass colums to  0 0 ... in /etc/fstab. But i would only use that as a temporary fix and investigate further what's going on
[03:53] <genii> fn0rd: np
[03:54] <excalibas> danielax: is there an irc channel for that?
[03:54] <cypherdelic> stefg: im not experienced enough
[03:54] <TheZanke> is it possible to get my mic working in my VMware XP Pro?
[03:54] <cypherdelic> stefg: thats why i am here
[03:54] <danielax> excalibas: according to the website at wubi-installer.org/support.php, no, but for support you should use the forum thead referred to on that page
[03:55] <stefg> cypherdelic: does 'ls -gG /dev/disk/by-uuid' turn up the right uuid for your /-drive?
[03:55] <imxoteb>
[03:55] <blah123> hi, is it possible to make the ubuntu taskbar group similar items, like all my open office docs are listed under openoffice and then I can click that for a list of the open docs?
[03:55] <stefg> !ru
[03:55] <ubotu>    #ubuntu-ru       /  Pozhalujsta vojdite v #ubuntu-ru dlq pomoshchi na russkom qzyke
[03:56] <excalibas> danielax: ok, i will try to use the forums, thanks
[03:56] <neott> Hi Guys :)
[03:57] <cypherdelic> stefg: its the same but it finally boot up that way so i guess it actually is the right uuid
[03:57] <danielax> juan: hmm
[03:57] <jrib> blah123: it does that when you have enough windows open or you can have it always do it if you right click on the window list and go to "preferences"
[03:57] <danielax> juan: Maybe the firefox irc channel could help
[03:57] <danielax> juan: it seems to be to be more of a ff issue than a ubuntu issue
[03:57] <nour> hi neott , can u guide me i want to connect to the internet with ubuntu 7.04 with a virtualbox :P
[03:58] <danielax> nour: pardon my ignorance, but what's a virtualbox?
[03:58] <Johto> danielax: emulator
[03:58] <cypherdelic> stefg: can i replace the uuid by /dev/sda3 in all three files
[03:58] <Johto> danielax: like vmware
[03:58] <danielax> Johto: ah thx.
[03:59] <Johto> danielax: check what vmware is, then you have better idea, its "virtual pc" inside pc
[03:59] <nour> danielax: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtualbox :D
[03:59] <gudegnaw> I am on an Xp curretnly wanting to VNC to my ubuntu at home. Problem is, my ubuntu box is behind a school firewall and does not have an outside IP. I can, however connect (SSH) into a lab computer running Debian and then SSH into my machine from there on. How can I bounce off the the debian machine to my ubuntu if I want to VNC to my machine?, SSH tunneling, ideas {tools available on XP right now : PuTTY, RealVNC}
[03:59] <cypherdelic> stefg: can i replace the uuid by /dev/sda3 in all three files?
[03:59] <danielax> Johto: I'm familiar with the concept, just not that implementation
[03:59] <stefg> cypherdelic: sure... just be aware that kernel updates (and update-grub in the following) might have surprising consequences. also edit the #kopt - line in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:59] <sparr> I would like to connect to my VPN at work.  It Just Works with our windows xp clients.  I can get kvpnc to say that I am connected, and i have a somewhat sensible looking ppp0 device after that, but nothing else seems to work.  Help?
[04:00] <cypherdelic> stefg: i mean both menu.lst and fstab
[04:00] <danielax> gudegnaw: ah - you have a nice school. Mine won't let me ssh out at all
[04:00] <stefg> cypherdelic: yes
[04:00] <cypherdelic> stefg: why do they have consequences, do they change my sda*
[04:00] <dyrne> sparr: cat /etc/resolv.conf make sure the dns is a 10.0 something or whatever your internal dns servers are
[04:00] <dyrne> sparr: might be all it is
[04:00] <danielax> gudegnaw: maybe port forward with putty, then use realvnc
[04:00] <TimeTraveller> i just downloaded open ssh ... unpaced it and run ./configure .. now i tried to write make but got the answer "make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop." what can this be ?
[04:00] <gudegnaw> danielax, the debian machine is a server our proff set up a while ago and it does have a static ip
[04:01] <cypherdelic> stefg: or do kernel updates just again replace /dev/sda3 by UUID?
[04:01] <Pici> TimeTraveller: Why did you do that? openssh is in the Ubuntu package repositories.
[04:01] <stefg> cypherdelic: if the #kopt- line is wrong, your /menu.lst gets written wrong and your machine might fail to boot (root-fs not found)
[04:01] <danielax> TimeTraveller: if you want openssh, you might find it easier to install it with aptitude/synaptic
[04:01] <gudegnaw> I am just not sure how to forward my ubuntu's connection via the debian and make it available for VNC
[04:01] <dyrne> sparr: usually i just use vpnc. so i do like sudo vpnc --domain=mycompanydomain     then vpnc prompts me for the fields it needs if i havent setup a config file to tell it
[04:01] <cypherdelic> stefg: but it should always be sda3
[04:02] <cypherdelic> because i use sda1 for swap
[04:02] <cypherdelic> sda2 is an crypted real big one
[04:02] <danielax> gudegnaw: so with putty, ssh into the deb
[04:02] <skyfalcon866> will i notice a speed difference with a i386 kernel
[04:03] <MasterShrek> skyfalcon866, as opposed to what?
[04:03] <gudegnaw> danielax: and how do I forward the port once SSHed into the Deb?
[04:03] <skyfalcon866> a generic kernel
[04:03] <danielax> gudegnaw: man ssh has a good guide
[04:04] <skyfalcon866> is pentium 3 686 or 386
[04:04] <MasterShrek> skyfalcon866, maybe, it may not be extremely noticeable though
[04:04] <Pici> skyfalcon866: Just use the generic kernel. Why do you want to install i386/i686?
[04:04] <cypherdelic> stefg: i will reboot now, good luck
[04:04] <sparr> dyrne: vpnc: hash comparison failed:  (ISAKMP_N_AUTHENTICATION_FAILED)(24)
[04:04] <danielax> gudegnaw: I'm not an ssh-port-forwarding-funky-port-hopping-school-networking-geius, so I might not be able to do that much good
[04:04] <sparr> dyrne: im skipping the ipsec id and ipsec secret prompts
[04:04] <skyfalcon866> i might get speed boost if the kernel is optimized for the processor right?
[04:05] <Dr_willis> skyfalcon866,  a littel.. dont expect much. :)
[04:05] <skyfalcon866> ok then
[04:05] <skyfalcon866> i am using gutsys kernel right now in my fiesty box
[04:05] <Pici> skyfalcon866: I dont think you will notice anything.
[04:05] <Jack_Sparrow> skyfalcon866: You could do more by adding ram
[04:06] <skyfalcon866> i already maxed out my ram to 512
[04:06] <danielax> skyfalcon866: though you may if you benchmark before/after, and if you compile your own kenel
[04:06] <skyfalcon866> i got an older chipset intel 815e
[04:06] <skyfalcon866> pentium 3 933Mhz
[04:06] <taffy-nay> A recent updtae has broken some bindings in compiz (specifficly <Comtroll><Alt>Right for cube spinning)....has anyone else experiensed this
[04:06] <danielax> skyfalcon866: Yeah - P3 all the way :) I'm using one too :)
[04:06] <Dr_willis> skyfalcon866,  you may want to be using some of the lighter desktops then. :)
[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> skyfalcon866: That should run ok as long as you dont try desktop effects and all that
[04:07] <danielax> skyfalcon866: (eg XFCE)
[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> skyfalcon866: X is lighter
[04:07] <skyfalcon866> why Gnome is running faster than windoze xp does
[04:07] <degrit> 'ullo
[04:07] <degrit> I seem to have lost the ability to use ALT+xxxx to use special characters - any clues on what the problem might be ?
[04:07] <danielax> Jack_Sparrow: although arguably less user friendly :P
[04:07] <Dr_willis> skyfalcon866,  because the linux/gome/programers work harder at making things more efficneit. :)

[04:07] <Jack_Sparrow> danielax: agreed
[04:08] <skyfalcon866> Does ubuntu support dual core processors or muti processors
[04:08] <stefg> !gutsy | taffy-nay
[04:08] <ubotu> taffy-nay: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[04:08] <Dr_willis> skyfalcon866,  yes.

[04:08] <Pici> skyfalcon866: read above ^
[04:09] <stefg> skyfalcon866: got more than 32 cores? :-)
[04:09] <b33r> Will I notice big difference if I add another 256MB of ram? I currently have 256MB
[04:09] <jrib> blah123: what desktop environment are you using?
[04:09] <Jack_Sparrow> b33r: It is worth the $
[04:09] <W9ZEB> what does ubuntu 7.04 use that's similar to ~/.xinitrc
[04:10] <stefg> b33r: the best you can do! 512 MB is sthe sweet spot for ubuntu
[04:10] <skyfalcon866> no i only got 1 core processor
[04:10] <blah123> jrib: I'm gnome gutsy but I found my problem I right clicked on the wrong part of the panel
[04:10] <b33r> Jack_Sparrow, not really I have RD-RAM PC1066 they are expensive =/
[04:10] <blah123> jrib: thanks
[04:10] <jrib> blah123: ah ok, np
[04:10] <Dr_willis> W9ZEB,  i was wondering that myself the other day. I recall seeing some xdefaults entry in gdm/kdm once.. but not lately.
[04:10] <skyfalcon866> i am looking into a new dual core processor
[04:10] <skyfalcon866> what is better amd or intel
[04:10] <danielax> b33r: probably - it means that instead of writng to hard-disk (slow), stuff is done in memory (fast)
[04:10] <realnewguy> guys!! i made a bit of a stuff up!! :S
