[03:33] <LocoMan> linuxjones: thanks... seems to have worked (at least survived 2 reboots... 8^) ).. no idea why it didn't work before, though... maybe the fact that I had installed ubuntu in spanish and is now in english affected it somehow?
[03:33] <pax> FHX, how old is your disk?
[03:33] <sethk> FHX, he probably had you turn off DMA or something of that sort, to get the install to go
[03:33] <zF> !flashplayer
[03:33] <ubotu> What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, zF
[03:33] <Desh> Wait...no..
[03:33] <sethk> FHX, that's really unrelated to what you are seeing now, most likely
[03:33] <zF> Grrrr
[03:33] <NickGarvey> !flash
[03:33] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[03:34] <zF> Thanks, NickGarvey
[03:34] <NickGarvey> :)
[03:34] <FHX> sethk: Oh.
[03:34] <FHX> Hm.
[03:34] <FHX> Well I really have no idea
[03:34] <FHX> gparted doens' t even detect anything
[03:34] <eobanb_> !enter
[03:34] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[03:34] <sethk> FHX, why would it?
[03:34] <Desh> Apt-get won;t find fglrx...but Adept does... :(
[03:34] <sethk> FHX, the problem is in the middle of the disk, not in the partition table
[03:35] <FHX> sethk: Do you think you could help me? I've been surfing for hours now and have been having this problem since last night.   PM me if you like
[03:35] <eobanb_> FHX, that's not the reason.  the reason is that this channel is for ubuntu support, and your issue is completely outside that scope
[03:36] <FHX> Okay it' s the same thing.
[03:36] <FHX> I can' te even install Ubuntu/Kubuntu.
[03:36] <FHX> Nothing detects it.
[03:36] <nathanael> How do I change my bootsplash? Is there an easy KDE utility??
[03:36] <sethk> FHX, you can /msg me if you like, but take it off this channel.  eobanb_ is correct, it really doesn't belong here
[03:36] <eobanb_> FHX, let me say one more time, this is a HARDWARE issue.
[03:36] <FHX> I'm asking for help to detect it, because it only stopped detecting my HD after I aborted a kubuntu installation.
[03:36] <FHX> Okay
[03:36] <FHX> sorry
[03:37] <Desh> Ok, can someone help me with a package removal error?
[03:37] <intelikey> Desh what is be ?
[03:37] <imbrandon> nathan look arround on gnome-look.org
[03:37] <Madpilot> greetings, Ubuntubians
[03:37] <imbrandon> heya Madpilot
[03:37] <Desh> I am trying to uninstall fglrx, but it says there is a diversio error.
[03:37] <eobanb_> hello Madpilot
[03:38] <jadaz87> !usplash
[03:38] <ubotu> hmm... usplash is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USplashCustomizationHowto
[03:38] <Desh> *diversion
[03:38] <muraii_> Anyone know of a better personal finance prog for Linux than GnuCash?
[03:38] <intelikey> Desh run it in a term and see the exact error please
[03:39] <Desh> Ok, paste in #flood?
[03:39] <Desh> Or PM?
[03:39] <eobanb_> !paste
[03:39] <ubotu> Please don't flood the channel! For best results use the pastebin at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and tell people the URL
[03:39] <biovore> Desh: dpkg -r <package_name>
[03:39] <biovore> that works on debian
[03:39] <intelikey> Desh pastebin ^
[03:39] <alexcamilo> i've noticed something odd about the splash screen in edubuntu. it's nice and shiny provided that nothing goes wrong but when something fails it goes back to white text mode. marks it as "failed" and continues.  is there any way to tell it to stay in that spash screen?  its annoying when something like contacting the ntp server when not online fails.
[03:40] <intelikey> apt-get remove package
[03:40] <eobanb_> alexcamilo, that's so that you can see more information about what failed
[03:40] <alexcamilo> i'm setting up the comp for someone who would see white text and go EEEEEEEP! so it would be nice if i could disable it
[03:40] <eobanb_> ah.
[03:40] <Hobbsee> alexcamilo: probably ask that in #edubuntu
[03:40] <alexcamilo> ok
[03:40] <Hobbsee> ah, you did get an anser
[03:40] <Hobbsee> *answer
[03:41] <Desh> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12867
[03:41] <d3s> where  can I get kernel-tree-2.6.12 package?
[03:41] <intelikey> alexcamilo maybe   append=" quiet "
[03:41] <alexcamilo> thats in grub right?
[03:42] <Desh> Argh, ignore that.
[03:42] <biovore> Desh: did you put a divert into the system for the gl?
[03:43] <imbroglio> how do you change the refresh rate on your monitor?
[03:43] <Desh> I never diverted anything myself, I did install other fglrx drivers, w/o uninstalling the original one...
[03:43] <biovore> Desh: sudo dpkg -r xorg-driver-fglrx  (what dose it day when you do that?)
[03:44] <Madpilot> alexcamilo, that "drop to plain text" thing is a bug that Ubuntu has too
[03:44] <Desh> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12868  This ne is correct.
[03:44] <Desh> *one
[03:45] <imbroglio> biovore: i believe i am using xfree86
[03:45] <alexcamilo> ah. thats why i asked here. i was told that edubuntu w/o the LTSP is just ubuntu w some apps.
[03:45] <imbroglio> this is version 4.10
[03:45] <alexcamilo> and its kinda dead there in edubuntu at times.
[03:45] <intelikey> Desh  sudo mv /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 . && sudo apt-get remove --purge xorg-driver-fglrx && sudo mv libGL.so.1.2 /usr/lib
[03:45] <biovore> imbroglio: what you tring to do?
[03:46] <imbroglio> biovore: thought you were talking to me sorry, didn't read the first line
[03:46] <Desh> mv: cannot stat `/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2': No such file or director
[03:46] <imbroglio> i'm looking to change the refresh rate of my monitor
[03:46] <Desh> I never found the 1.2 file in usr/lib
[03:46] <Madpilot> alexcamilo, I'm not certain, but I think it's a known bug in the usplash app that makes the startup scroll pretty
[03:47] <biovore> imbroglio: you using brezzy?
[03:47] <imbroglio> warty
[03:47] <biovore> imbroglio: old school eh..
[03:47] <eobanb_> any certain reason you're using warty?
[03:47] <eobanb_> warty is very old
[03:47] <intelikey> ah ok  then maybe   sudo touch /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 && sudo apt-get remove --purge xorg-driver-fglrx    desh
[03:47] <osotogari> heelo all, when im using firestarter, i cant seem to be able to get at my Samba shares from my XP box, I have Samba ports open in my inbound rules but this still isnt working. Anyone got any ideas?
[03:47] <biovore> imbroglio: look under /etc/x11/ for xorg.conf or xfree86.conf
[03:47] <imbroglio> kk
[03:48] <Desh> :( Same...
[03:48] <intelikey> desh let me read the error again...
[03:48] <alexcamilo> its not that bad. i guess i'l just ignore.
[03:48] <Desh> Ok, /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2, doesn;t exits..which I find extremely odd...
[03:48] <imbroglio> warty because i recieved about 25 of these disc packages for free when ubuntu first started and i handed out a bunch of them, i found this one and installed it because i am lazy and didn't feel like dwnlding 5.10
[03:49] <eobanb_> imbroglio, it's very simple to update ubuntu
[03:49] <intelikey> desh that's why i said touvh it.
[03:49] <imbroglio> eobanb_: some swaret type software?
[03:49] <intelikey> touch even
[03:49] <Desh> I see, I got the same error though.
[03:50] <Madpilot> alexcamilo, when you turn the machine over to the non-techie folks who're going to be using it, just mention that the startup might sometimes change, and that it's nothing to worry about...
[03:50] <eobanb_> imbroglio, ...?
[03:50] <biovore> imbroglio: dist-upgrade :-P
[03:50] <imbroglio> :x
[03:50] <imbroglio> that easy
[03:50] <imbroglio> swaret is what i used in slack to keep up with current dir/
[03:50] <Desh> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12869
[03:50] <osotogari> where is the update manager located for breezy?
[03:50] <jadaz87> i have a quesiton can you downgrade from dapper to breezy?
[03:51] <NullVector> !java
[03:51] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[03:52] <alexcamilo> maybe they'l get curious and start lerning more.
[03:52] <alexcamilo> lol
[03:52] <ice_1963> :)
[03:52] <alexcamilo> get 'em when they're 5
[03:52] <biovore> learning linux is like climing a brick wall very alien for windows users
[03:52] <intelikey> Desh it's not the "propper" way but you can edit the /var/lib/dpkg/info/xorg-driver-fglrx.post-removal      and fix it there.
[03:52] <biovore> so prepare to be comfussed
[03:52] <BuckWild> biovore, yeah it is
[03:53] <BuckWild> I've been using windows for years
[03:53] <alexcamilo> i watched my friend's first steps in kde yesterday.
[03:53] <BuckWild> and computers for decades
[03:53] <alexcamilo> was interesting.
[03:53] <biovore> you have 40 years of evloution of the unix os to cover
[03:53] <BuckWild> and I'm still having a little bit of trouble
[03:53] <BuckWild> I understand basics, command line and such
[03:53] <osotogari> i thought Ubuntu was pretty easy to move over to tbh
[03:53] <BuckWild> cuz I used that in windows
[03:53] <BuckWild> but to do anything complicated
[03:53] <alexcamilo> i learned command line in osX
[03:53] <BuckWild> like I'm trying to set up an icecast server
[03:53] <imbroglio> so to increase my refresh rate i should prolly take out the 16x12 resolution, right?
[03:53] <BuckWild> takes forever for me still
[03:53] <alexcamilo> made linuc a bit easier
[03:53] <biovore> windows cli is nothing like unix cli..  unix cli is so powerfull for data processing and text processing
[03:53] <intelikey> Desh if that's too heavy for you... ah maybe someone else can sujest something.
[03:54] <BuckWild> whereas in windows it was two clicks and I'm going
[03:54] <imbroglio> having vert and hor frequencies already set correctly, refresh should increase
[03:54] <Desh> Hehe.
[03:54] <alexcamilo> first time i borked up xorg.conf was fun
[03:54] <arrick> Where are all the normal named peeps?
[03:55] <eobanb_> ...
[03:55] <biovore> not here
[03:55] <arrick> where di all the new people come from
[03:55] <luke> if i install the beta of dapper now, will the download be smaller when I upgrade it to final release in June?
[03:55] <Desh> Is there a way to reinstall the OS w/o losing my stuff?
[03:55] <eobanb_> luke, yes
[03:55] <biovore> luke: no
[03:55] <eobanb_> sure it will.
[03:55] <ice_1963> ubuntu has made it so easy installing linux step by step :)
[03:55] <biovore> luke: yout completely updating every still
[03:55] <intelikey> Desh yes.  but it's not easy.
[03:55] <luke> ic
[03:55] <arrick> evening intelikey
[03:55] <osotogari> im thinking of ditching my suse install on my laptop for ubuntu breezy, yay or nay?
[03:55] <intelikey> arrick /
[03:56] <Desh> Argh.
[03:56] <Desh> Yay.
[03:56] <BuckWild> osotogari, yay, why not dapper tho? or wait till dapper
[03:56] <patrick24601> good luck - hope you don't want kde
[03:56] <biovore> osotogari: suse isn't bad.. I just like the apt package manager better then rpm
[03:56] <alexcamilo> when is dapper comin out?
[03:56] <patrick24601> I can get KDE installed to save my life
[03:56] <patrick24601> can't
[03:56] <BuckWild> june is dapper time
[03:56] <ubuntu> hi
[03:56] <alexcamilo> sweet
[03:56] <eobanb_> biovore, updating from breezy to dapper flight 6 was about 400 MB of downloading; updating from flight 6 to beta was about 150 MB of downloading
[03:56] <BuckWild> I'm running the beta, I couldn't wait
[03:57] <biovore> eobanb_: because you already download 400MB of stuff.
[03:57] <luke> how do I upgrade to dapper beta, I tried sudo update-manager -d but it didnt work
[03:57] <eobanb_> biovore, but that's what we're talking about
[03:57] <Desh> intelikey, I can't find that file...
[03:57] <osotogari> biovore: i am the same, since i installed Ubuntu here on the desktop, i have so much fun configuring and fixing little things. i think its just so much easier to use than suse
[03:57] <eobanb_> biovore, he asked whether updating to dapper final would be a smaller download in june if he updated to dapper beta now
[03:57] <HymnToLife> !tell luke about upgrade
[03:57] <biovore> I see I miss understud you
[03:57] <jadaz87> epbanb_ i was wondering what will be the difference between dapper beta and final?
[03:58] <intelikey> Desh   tab completion
[03:58] <BuckWild> I'm really appreciating dapper actually
[03:58] <BuckWild> they were right about the new gnome
[03:58] <luke> to clarify, I asked whether or not I would have to download lots of stuff again if I upgraded now
[03:58] <Desh> ...?
[03:58] <BuckWild> it's a lot snappier
[03:58] <biovore> eobanb_: form current dapper to final dapper will be small 150MB or so
[03:58] <eobanb_> jadaz87, almost nothing in terms of new features; just stability improvements
[03:58] <patrick24601> What is the easiest way to get KDE? I can't seem to do it via synaptic.
[03:58] <osotogari> A BuckWild: I'll read up about Dapper, I think I saw some screens the other day, it looks pretty!!!
[03:58] <eobanb_> biovore, i KNOW
[03:58] <BuckWild> oh yeah, dapper is much better looking IMO too
[03:58] <graft> Dapper, like breezy, is only as pretty as you can make it
[03:58] <biovore> patrick24601: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[03:58] <jadaz87> eobanb_ so does that mean i should just upgrade and keep downloading updates?
[03:58] <BuckWild> graft, you have to admit tho that the default theme in dapper is miles ahead of breezy
[03:59] <alexcamilo> bah. irc crashed
[03:59] <eobanb_> jadaz87, that's what i always do.
[03:59] <BuckWild> I still can't get XGL working tho
[03:59] <graft> BuckWild: running KDE anyway, so i wouldn't know
[03:59] <intelikey> Desh use the tab key to complete the parts of the file name     i.e.   nano /va[tab] /li[tab] /dpk[tab] /....... and so on.
[03:59] <juanca7777> hello everyone
[03:59] <biovore> I have xgl and comviz working here
[03:59] <BuckWild> oh
[03:59] <BuckWild> I'm not sure if I like KDE
[03:59] <alexcamilo> does anyone know if gnome eats less cpu power then kde?
[03:59] <graft> biovore: do they have xgl working with kdm/gdm smoothly yet?
[03:59] <BuckWild> it's too windows for me
[03:59] <juanca7777> where, which channel, can I get info about changin the icon of the main menu for Gnome?
[03:59] <jadaz87> eobanb_ i want the native broadcom support lol i was wondering i have broadcom+ndiswrapper i was wondering if i should get rid of ndiswrapper?
[03:59] <biovore> yup
[03:59] <patrick24601> biovore : I'll give it a shot. Thanks.
[03:59] <jadaz87> eobanb_ before i upgrade?
[04:00] <biovore> I got kbfx working nice too
[04:00] <cafuego> jadaz87: yes
[04:00] <graft> biovore: serious? sweet
[04:00] <ubuntu> #winchester
[04:00] <BuckWild> KDE kinda seems like an attempt at windows' taskbar to me
[04:00] <alexcamilo> gnome in it's less pimped out default mode
[04:00] <djs_2_6> Hello.  On breezy, is it possible to successfully install a rarp and tftp setup?  If so, could someone familiar with this help me PLEASE?
[04:00] <Desh> I'm at the folder, /var/lib/dpkg/info/...
[04:00] <eobanb_> jadaz87, it doesnt really matter, i dont think
[04:00] <biovore> granted it took some hacking
[04:00] <juanca7777> alexcamilo:use gnome 2.14 and you'll fell the difference in memory consumption
[04:00] <intelikey> Desh package name
[04:00] <graft> BuckWild: KDE is pretty flexible in terms of what you make your desktop look like
[04:00] <zF> What's the command to output what kernel modules are in use?
[04:00] <zF> or loaded, at least?
[04:00] <jadaz87> cafuego should i do sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter before i upgrade so i will have it?
[04:00] <graft> BuckWild: you can go OS-X style, Win-XP style, etc... mix and match
[04:00] <Desh> Oh god...so confused, sorry.
[04:00] <intelikey> zf lsmod
[04:01] <zF> intelikey, thanks
[04:01] <BuckWild> graft, yeah, I'm sure you can
[04:01] <BuckWild> I'm talking out of the box
[04:01] <nemik> helo, so what app do you guys recommend for usenet/binaries? i'm using pan but for lists with many articles, it is VERY slow at loading them.
[04:01] <BuckWild> out of the box it looks like windows
[04:01] <juanca7777> how can I change the main menu icon?
[04:01] <fiendskull9> hey guys
[04:01] <NullVector> !javadebs
[04:02] <fiendskull9> juanca7777, i have the same question
[04:02] <graft> BuckWild: it's been a long time, actually i forget what it looks like out of the box
[04:02] <fiendskull9> juanca7777, because on all other distros the icon is in the pixmaps folder, but the ubuntu one isnt
[04:02] <juanca7777> fiendskull9: why's that?
[04:02] <intelikey> i'm goin'    FOOD !
[04:02] <fiendskull9> juanca7777, gimme a sec, ill look on the ubuntu forums
[04:03] <Desh> I think I may end up reinstalling from scratch...
[04:03] <blindx> What's the mencoder switch to change movie format? Like, I have an avi, I want to change it to an mpeg.. I just don't remember the switch..
[04:03] <juanca7777> fiendskull9: cool :)
[04:03] <graft> Desh: what's your prob?
[04:03] <graft> blindx: -ovc <codec>
[04:03] <blindx> nope
[04:03] <bobafeet> anyone have a good resource for wifi problems besides the wiki?
[04:03] <osotogari> quick question, when Dapper goes live, is it just a case of downloading via apt-get to upgrade Breezy?
[04:04] <jadaz87> osotogari yes
[04:04] <Desh> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12869
[04:04] <juanca7777> osotogari: yes
[04:04] <nemik> is there anything better/faster than pan for usenet?
[04:04] <Desh> same with apt-get and dpkg
[04:04] <graft> blindx: what do you mean nope?
[04:04] <blindx> i mean no.
[04:04] <osotogari> Cool.
[04:04] <graft> blindx: i tell you yes! if you want to convert an avi to an mpeg, do like
[04:05] <blindx> -ovc lavc im doing. but it doesn't change the format.
[04:05] <fiendskull9> will dapper have pre-order?
[04:05] <fiendskull9> like a few weeks before it comes out
[04:05] <smo> nemik: only found three workable solutions.  the first was to put a metric truckload of ram in my desktop so pan didn't slouch so much.  the second was using 'brag' on the console.  the third involved dropping usd2k on a mac, and is very off-topic
[04:05] <graft> mencoder -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4 or whatever
[04:05] <fiendskull9> so they ship quicker
[04:06] <pax> juanca7777: to work around the shoes, replaces /usr/share/icons/Tango/X/places/gnome-main-menu.png with ubuntu's gnome-main-menu.png
[04:06] <pax> doh!
[04:06] <Madpilot> fiendskull9, yes
[04:06] <fiendskull9> Madpilot, sweet
[04:06] <nemik> smo, thanks. i have 1.5GB of RAM, can't believe it is not enough for pan. ridiculous. i can try brag from console, i'll see. what about klibido? is it workable?
[04:06] <Desh> Oh god I hate diversions, and I don;t even know what they are. >_<
[04:06] <Madpilot> fiendskull9, but the final image won't be ready literally until release day, so they can't really pre-manufacture CDs
[04:06] <fiendskull9> yeah
[04:06] <smo> nemik: can't say I've tried klibido, sorry
[04:07] <fiendskull9> but i just dont wanna forget to order my cd's
[04:07] <bluelotus> how do I save my gedit preferences?
[04:07] <fiendskull9> if your thinking, why not dist-upgrade, i like to have the physical cd's if i reinstall
[04:07] <osotogari> ok i installed Firefox via apt-get which is version 1.0.8 or something like that. I wanted to upgrade so i downloaded the tarbell from getfirefox.com, what do i do after untarring the tarbell?
[04:07] <Hobbsee> !tell osotogari about firefox1.5
[04:07] <Madpilot> fiendskull9, get the ISOs and burn them yourself, if you can - faster than waiting for Shipit
[04:07] <nemik> smo, no problem. i may just go with brag. it won't be very nice d/ling binaries from console though..will it? is it easy enough to get bunchs of files?
[04:08] <fiendskull9> Madpilot, i always get bad burns, and i like having "official" cd's
[04:08] <Madpilot> fiendskull9, fair enough :)
[04:08] <fiendskull9> lol
[04:08] <ablyss> screenshot now available @ http://epluribusunix.net/screenshots/screenshot-04-24-06_22_08_47.jpg
[04:08] <jadaz87> Madpilot i hope my official cds are ok
[04:09] <smo> nemik: it's a pain in the rear, but light and effective.  it does 'a bunch of files' very well tho
[04:09] <graft> hey Desh, read this: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-18108.html
[04:09] <fiendskull9> Madpilot, when i was just getting into linux, and i saw the shipit thing, and it was free, i jokingly ordered some. forgot about it, then one day i get a bunch of cd's (like 25) from france. lol.
[04:09] <jadaz87> ablyss what wm do you use? gnome/kde?
[04:09] <osotogari> Thanks Hobbsee!!
[04:09] <jadaz87> fiendskull9 lmao
[04:09] <ablyss> jadaz87, kde
[04:10] <bjv> i just installed a new mouse, it detected it and ive got an 'MX700' tab in mouse config
[04:10] <NullVector> could someone help me get java installed? Been trying to the last few days, unsuccessful so far
[04:10] <nemik> smo, i figured as much. so long as i can get my 'bunches' ;) thanks!
[04:10] <_jason> NullVector: what have you tried?
[04:10] <jadaz87> nullvector? java?
[04:10] <bjv> but i want to reset my xorg.conf file with the new input device, instead of the old one
[04:10] <bjv> how do you do that?
[04:10] <_jason> !xorg
[04:10] <ubotu> xorg is probably To reconfigure your X server, type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" in a terminal, or check here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto or here http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-83973.html
[04:10] <NullVector> _jason: tried the instructions on the wiki and using sevea's packages
[04:10] <bjv> neat.
[04:10] <NullVector> _jason, unless I am doing something wrong
[04:11] <_jason> NullVector: ok what failed when you used Sevea s' packages
[04:11] <imbroglio> question how to add user w/ sudo privelages(sp?)
[04:11] <_jason> imbroglio: add him to the admin group
[04:11] <NullVector> _jason,  not sure exactly, it seems like it installs, but java doesn't work. Unless I need to link it to mozilla
[04:11] <_jason> NullVector: are you using firefox 1.5 on breezy?
[04:12] <NullVector> _jason, using firefox 1.08
[04:12] <imbroglio> adduser --group admin (user)???
[04:12] <NullVector> _jason, should I update FF first?

[04:14] <dj-fu> http://deejafuzion.t4c0.info/music/Screenshot.png
[04:14] <sesstreets> _jason: dude I upgraded to dapper....whered the old xchat go?
[04:14] <dj-fu> sesstreets, it got replaced by xchat-gnome - apt-get remove xchat-gnome && apt-get install xchat
[04:14] <_jason> sesstreets: idk search in synaptic, I think it's xchat-gnome now
[04:15] <dj-fu> nearly the first thing I do
[04:15] <Desh> Oh my..I think it worked...
[04:15] <dAndy> Plitskin: ctrl-alt-backspace kills the xserver
[04:15] <newbieme> any solution on dapper nx6125 xorg.conf??
[04:15] <sesstreets> it kills everything
[04:15] <newbieme> tnx in advance!

[04:19] <NullVector> ok
[04:20] <biovore> fiendskull9: I don't like the x86 mac Idea
[04:20] <jmg> dj-fu btw i know you from undernet
[04:20] <biovore> fiendskull9: wallpaper is cool though
[04:20] <fiendskull9> biovore, well, i run osx86 on my other pc
[04:20] <fiendskull9> biovore, its unix with a fancy ass gui
[04:20] <sethk> biovore, good, you just saved yourself a lot of money  :)
[04:20] <biovore> fiendskull9: I think apple is going to be canning the project though
[04:20] <ice_1963> biovore: i have never installed ati driver in debian yet but i will :)
[04:20] <biovore> OS x is cool
[04:20] <dj-fu> jmg, oh? what chan?
[04:20] <NullVector> _jason, still no go
[04:20] <sesstreets> osx pwns
[04:21] <fiendskull9> biovore, yeah, because now that its x86, its so much more vulnerable for hackers (not crackers)
[04:21] <jmg> dj-fu: cant remember, so long ago
[04:21] <_jason> NullVector: what's the name of the package you installed?
[04:21] <newbieme> join #ubuntu+1
[04:21] <biovore> ice_1963: I avoide ATI + Linux like the puage
[04:21] <sesstreets> plauge*
[04:21] <jmg> dj-fu: im cartel on undernet
[04:21] <fiendskull9> biovore, i use it as a windows alt. because i record and use photoshop
[04:21] <ice_1963> lol
[04:21] <NullVector> the java package or seveas package?
[04:21] <NullVector> !java
[04:21] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[04:21] <_jason> NullVector: the java package you installed from seveas' repo
[04:21] <dj-fu> ah.
[04:22] <biovore> fiendskull9: well I think the x86 mac hardware platform will never take off..
[04:22] <dj-fu> if they made osx x86 run on all hardware, it might
[04:22] <sethk> biovore, I agree
[04:22] <dj-fu> afaik it only runs on mac x86 hardware
[04:22] <biovore> biovore: Power PC still has some life in it..  Power6 has some kick
[04:22] <coffelius> hello
[04:22] <jmg> dj-fu: osx86 project has hacked it to run on any hardware
[04:22] <Tommy83a> okey, IRCchat built into the os?! cool!!
[04:23] <jmg> even without efi
[04:23] <biovore> yeah.. I am talking to my self :-P
[04:23] <fiendskull9> biovore, yeah, well they are dropping powerbooks in 2007. also heres another wall (crap quality, png export wasnt working right) - http://ic1.deviantart.com/fs10/i/2006/082/1/f/iTux_by_fiendskull9.jpg
[04:23] <chiche> the x86 mac on new p-m is a good start
[04:23] <Desh> Ok, I used to be able to use the "lock session" option, but it randomly stopped working...

[04:30] <biovore> Desh: you running the 32bit version of the OS?

[04:30] <Desh> I am running 32 bit OS.
[04:30] <biovore> Desh: sick with 686 or k7 kernels then
[04:30] <imbrandon> k7 with 32 bit, 64 when you upgrade to the 64bit os
[04:30] <NullVector> _jason,  no errors this time. maybe I did it wrong yesterday, thanks
[04:31] <Desh> Alright, k7 is what I have. :)
[04:31] <Tommy83a> Hmm... is it possible to stop wieving who'is entering, leaving and changing rooms?
[04:31] <jadaz87_opera> hello i was wondering
[04:31] <Desh> Any clues why Lock Session and certain games like Penguin Racer would stop loading?
[04:31] <Tommy83a> !help
[04:31] <imbrandon> Tommy83a: depends on your client
[04:31] <jadaz87_opera> is bcm43xx and bcm94306 the same thing?
[04:31] <nathanael> I cannot customize my Karamba themes, is this because my user does not have rights?
[04:31] <biovore> Desh: probably something busticated with your gl install
[04:31] <Remy> !gl
[04:31] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Remy
[04:32] <Desh> gl?
[04:32] <nathanael> !karamba
[04:32] <ubotu> Wish I knew. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, nathanael
[04:32] <jadaz87_opera> cafuego is bcm43xx and bcm94306 the same thing?
[04:32] <nathanael> !superkaramba
[04:32] <ubotu> SuperKaramba is a KDE application that allows you to create interactive eye-candy on your desktop. Official site: http://netdragon.sourceforge.net SK Themes: http://kdelook.org
[04:32] <Desh> But I'm using the "ati" driver not fglx
[04:32] <cafuego> jadaz87_opera: I've never head of a 94306
[04:32] <Tommy83a> imbrandon : X-chat [2.4.4]
[04:33] <fiendskull9> hey
[04:33] <endeavormac> I can't seem to get the program sopwith to close
[04:33] <imbrandon> Tommy83a: then yes there is a way but i dont use xchat so i couldent tell you how
[04:33] <jadaz87_opera> cafuego that is what it says on the bottom of my hp laptop i just noticed :Broadcom BCM94306
[04:33] <fiendskull9> how do i add Programming tools to the main menu?
[04:33] <Madpilot> Tommy83a, Settings->Preferences, somewhere in there
[04:34] <d3s> I tried to plug my compro videomate u900 in, but I didn't get any info about the tvtuner from dmesg nor lspci
[04:34] <Tommy83a> imbrandon Madpilot : ok? Thanks
[04:34] <jadaz87_opera> cafuego but i use the bcm5wl driver for windows and ndiswrapper so i do not know
[04:34] <Madpilot> fiendskull9, when you add a Programming tool, it'll add the submenu - try installing Bluefish, for example
[04:34] <nathanael> When I right-click on any Karamba theme, "customize theme" is grayed out...why?
[04:34] <fiendskull9> Madpilot, i installed anjuta and screem, and still no programming menu
[04:35] <cafuego> jadaz87_opera: Then bcm43xx MAY work. It could be a slightly different revision.
[04:35] <nathanael> ::sigh::
[04:35] <Madpilot> fiendskull9, screem should have appeared in your Programming submenu...
[04:35] <jmg> nathanael: try #kubuntu
[04:35] <Madpilot> fiendskull9, did Screem appear anywhere?
[04:36] <fiendskull9> Madpilot, nvm, i reinstalled
[04:36] <venox> hey, I have bought a sony dsc-s60 digital camera and I want to mount it so I can browse my photos, how can I do that on ubuntu?
[04:36] <venox> I tried something like `sudo mount -t fat /dev/sda1 /media/cam` but it doesn't work, any ideas?
[04:36] <Madpilot> venox, it doesn't automount:
[04:36] <Madpilot> ?
[04:37] <noiesmo> venox, try digikam the camera might be using ptp
[04:37] <Madpilot> venox, try gThumb - File->Import From Camera
[04:37] <venox> hmm
[04:37] <venox> I'm using xubuntu as desktop, not the gnome one
[04:37] <venox> maybe that's the problem
[04:38] <ice_1963> your useing xfce4
[04:38] <venox> yes, xfce4.
[04:38] <noiesmo> venox, most camera's are like usb device so if you put in usbpen and it automounts then if camera is usb style it should automount if not the camara uses ptp
[04:38] <venox> well, the camera has three modes for usb: pictbridge, ptp and normal
[04:38] <venox> I think normal is something like a mass storage device, isn't it?
[04:39] <EvilolivE_> whats a good hard drive formatting tool
[04:39] <cafuego> EvilolivE_: Linxu doesn't fomat them , it just writes new filesystems.
[04:39] <noiesmo> venox, my camara is kodak but it uses ptp I noticed in digikam that canon vcan be either ptp or usb maybe yuours is ptp
[04:39] <EvilolivE_> cafuego: how can I do that?
[04:39] <digen> EvilolivE_,  fdisk
[04:40] <jadaz87> cafuego 0000:00:09.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
[04:40] <venox> well
[04:40] <venox> it's working with gthumb
[04:40] <venox> on the ptp mode ;)
[04:40] <EvilolivE_> digen: do I have to unmount the drive first?
[04:40] <ikaruga2099> hi all---just had a quick question. I just followed the ubuntu unofficial guide to get mysql and apache working together (apache and php are already working) but the wierd thing is that phpmyadmin works (i can log on and create databases) but wordpress says I have no mysql installed
[04:40] <jadaz87> cafuego is lspci affected by the ndiswapper? or does ndiswrapper not have an effect on it
[04:40] <digen> EvilolivE_,  is it a new drive/partition your adding?
[04:40] <noiesmo> venox, there you go ptp picture transfer protocal not usbpen like
[04:41] <ikaruga2099> I was wondering perhaps mysql isn't installed after all
[04:41] <EvilolivE_> I already mounted a ntfs drive, now I wanna repartition as 1/2 ntfs and 1/2 ext3
[04:41] <Madpilot> !tell ikaruga2099 about lamp
[04:43] <Tommy83a> %v
[04:43] <Tommy83a> hmm
[04:43] <digen> EvilolivE_, you can delete the partition with fdisk, & create new partitions with it too
[04:45] <ikaruga2099> madpilot, obotu: thanx a million --- a simple ";" did the trick!
[04:45] <[itrebal] > what packages do i need for mpg files?
[04:45] <_jason> ubotu: tell [itrebal]  about multimedia
[04:45] <ikaruga2099> thanks again all and goodnight!
[04:46] <Ummmmm> hey all
[04:46] <fogos> hi,... xorg doesnt save me the resolutions,,, any help?
[04:47] <noiesmo> ubotu, tell fogos about resolution
[04:47] <Ummmmm> having a problem with a disk mount. it's fat32.i can mount it fine with the disk manager, but 1) the mount doesn't persist through reboots, and 2) only root has write access to the drive
[04:47] <beril> how global is System->Prefences->Font?  Is it a Gnome thing? GTK? Or what?
[04:47] <Ummmmm> help?
[04:48] <Ummmmm> ubotu tell me about mount
[04:48] <der0b> is anyone else having a problem with kopete crashing when attempting to configure it?  (Setting -> Configure)
[04:48] <noiesmo> Ummmmm, here's my howto http://pastebin.com/680319
[04:49] <Desh> How can I check what video card driver is being used?
[04:49] <EvilolivE_> to delete patrition1 :fdisk -?
[04:49] <Humility> Is anybody using dapper right now? Are you experiencing problems with firefox?
[04:49] <Desh> I chose fglrx in reconfigure-xorg but in xorg.conf it says I'm using the "ati" driver.
[04:50] <gn0m3> Can anyone help me with the gaim messenger?
[04:50] <Flannel> Humility: ask in #ubuntu+1
[04:50] <Flannel> they're the ones using dapper ;)
[04:50] <Ummmmm> thanks to noiesmo for giving me the right link :D
[04:50] <gn0m3> anyone?
[04:50] <noiesmo> Ummmmm, np :)
[04:50] <Humility> thanks
[04:51] <Ummmmm> Humility: a friend of mine is using it successfully without any problems. What is your problem specifically?
[04:51] <gn0m3> anyone can help me with gaim   (adding pucs)
[04:51] <gn0m3> uhhh
[04:52] <luke> is there any way to install Windows fonts on gnome, like Verdana and Tahoma?
[04:52] <noiesmo> Humility, im on dapper no probs here
[04:52] <Humility> Firefox tends to "freeze" after I use it. I often have to kill it via the system monitor
[04:52] <Humility> flash works half the time, i'm not sure why
[04:52] <Humility> and some fonts aren't working
[04:52] <noiesmo> ubotu, tell fogos about msfonts
[04:53] <noiesmo> ubotu, tell luke about msfonts
[04:53] <Humility> Otherwise it's fine. I love dapper ... but the firefox thing is annoying. it won't auto-update to 1.5.2 either
[04:53] <Jowi> Humility: dappers firefox version is kinda not good. better to download it from mozilla for now (at least I think so)
[04:54] <Humility> won't it break my packages?
[04:54] <Ummmmm> Humility, I'm not sure I'm afraid. That's what you get for using unsupported unreleased software ... :(
[04:54] <Jowi> Humility: no. you can install it whereever you want. I have it in /opt/firefox.
[04:55] <Humility> Ummm: yeah I was expecting a few things to be buggy ... basically I wanted to try. but I like it so I probably won't go back to breezy
[04:55] <Humility> that would be switching to black and white TV when u already used to color tv
[04:55] <Humility> *would be like
[04:55] <Jowi> Humility: good news with dapper: it is improving every day :)
[04:55] <Humility> Jowi: thanks .. I'm going to do that
[04:56] <luke> thanks noiesmo
[04:56] <Humility> Jowi: Yep! I'm really impressed with this... it's going to be extraordinary one the final version gets out
[04:56] <noiesmo> luke, np :)
[04:57] <Jowi> Humility: about firefox, you can even put it in your home directory and run it from there if you want. then you don't have to worry about your system settings.
[04:57] <Humility> Jowi: Really? yeah I can do that ... I didn't like installing Firefox in /opt because of the permission problems
[04:58] <Humility> Same thing with azureus
[04:58] <Ummmmm> i'm reading the man pages for mount -- it doesn't seem to support fat32?!?!?!
[04:58] <diomedes> can you net install ubuntu like you can debian?
[04:58] <Ummmmm> what's going on?
[04:58] <Ummmmm> or does linux call it something else, like vfat ??
[04:59] <diomedes> fat32 = vfat
[04:59] <Ummmmm> ta
[04:59] <sethk> Ummmmm, yes, vfat
[04:59] <sethk> Ummmmm, or you can use -t msdos, and mount will do a pretty good job of figuring out which type of fat is to be mounted
[05:00] <codecaine> I selected a directory in myshare on ubuntu but I don't see the folder on my other pc as an share
[05:00] <codecaine> its a external hd im sharing
[05:00] <Tommy83a> ==>>/cmd away <<== Wrong? :)
[05:00] <Humility> Anyway, thanks guys. I really like this room...it' too crowded but ppl are nice
[05:01] <Humility> enjoy your evening!
[05:01] <comrade> hey I got a question, I did a cat /proc/cpuinfo, my model is identified as an amd 2100+, but it's saying I'm only running at 531 mhz, is this just a goof or am I getting jipped cpu?
[05:01] <Ummmmm> prob a goof
[05:01] <Ummmmm> cat /proc/cpuinfo
[05:01] <Jowi> c u Humility
[05:01] <Ummmmm> oops wrong window :)
[05:01] <comrade> someone said my acpi might be making my cpu run less
[05:01] <comrade> and like eclipse is slow as balls for me
[05:01] <Ummmmm> hmm says i'm running a 2400 at 2000 MHz (which I am, it's slightly overclocked, should be 1900)
[05:02] <Ummmmm> ...
[05:02] <Ummmmm> so actually i think your machine is doing something weeeird
[05:02] <comrade> gheyed!!
[05:02] <sethk> comrade, check that you don't have throttling on for cpu temperature, and something wrong in the lmsensors code making it think it has to throttle
[05:02] <Jowi> comrade: which kernel are you using? should be linux-k7
[05:02] <comrade> sethk, I have no idea how do that
[05:02] <luigi_> hey
[05:02] <comrade> i got the 686 one
[05:03] <comrade> it's a laptop so I was thinking something goofy was going on with the power control or whatever
[05:03] <luigi_> hows the linux?
[05:03] <Jowi> 686 is for the pentium cpu
[05:03] <sethk> comrade, that is possible
[05:03] <fiendskull9> hey dudes, what is glib labeled as in the repos?
[05:03] <fiendskull9> !glib
[05:03] <ubotu> fiendskull9: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:03] <sethk> comrade, turn it off, see if the speed changes
[05:03] <Ummmmm> comrade, is your cpu speed set correctly in the bios?
[05:03] <comrade> sethk, how do I do that
[05:03] <comrade> yea
[05:03] <diomedes> so anyone tell me if there is a net install iso for ubuntu?
[05:03] <DarkElf109> Hey there. I was wondering, is it possible to configure auto-login with LTSP clients? I've searched the 'net and forums high and low, and there have only been vague mentionings of it. If it is possible, how is it done? (I'm trying this with edubuntu, but, since that channel's pretty empty, thought I'd try in here)
[05:03] <diomedes> or am i install straight debian again
[05:03] <venox> hey, what's the command line for the gnome image viewer?
[05:03] <venox> I want to see the EXIF of my photos
[05:04] <Jowi> venox: eo
[05:04] <[koji] > transitioning from beta to the final release in june shouldn't be much of a big deal?
[05:04] <Jowi> venox: eog
[05:04] <sethk> comrade, I don't remember specifically, but there is something on the admin menu that will do it for you
[05:04] <venox> thanks
[05:04] <venox> ;)
[05:04] <comrade> sethk, I don't want to turn anything permantly off cause I like how ubuntu actually controls my fan
[05:04] <comrade> u think that would get turned off
[05:04] <sethk> comrade, yes, I imagine it would
[05:04] <Ummmmm> comrade: that's a desktop, right?
[05:04] <sesstreets> _jason why doesnt google find auto ubuntu?
[05:04] <sesstreets> !autoubuntu
[05:04] <ubotu> Syntax error in line 1. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, sesstreets
[05:04] <comrade> Ummmmm, nah a laptop
[05:04] <sethk> comrade, I don't know what files to back up to make sure you don't lose the settings
[05:05] <_jason> sesstreets: umm what is auto ubuntu?
[05:05] <hyphenated> I think he means easyubuntu
[05:05] <sesstreets> OO its easy
[05:05] <comrade> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-82263.html
[05:05] <comrade> check that out
[05:05] <comrade> that's where I read about it a bit
[05:05] <harisund_> Is it even worth contributing stuff to ubuntu wiki that relates to Breezy now? Like LaptopTesting et al ?
[05:06] <Jowi> harisund_: i think breezy will be supported for quite a while longer
[05:06] <Ummmmm> hmm slowness
[05:06] <comrade> is there a channel about the powernowd
[05:07] <poningru> harisund_: yeah dude def add stuff to the wiki
[05:07] <Ummmmm> it takes me like 5 seconds to open a new terminal ... but firefox and other apps are quite fast
[05:07] <harisund_> Jowi ah ok. So it means even after Dapper is officially released, I can continue using Breezy?
[05:07] <der0b> is there some place that explains where ubuntu installs it's user apps?  (just trying to learn a bit about how things are done)
[05:07] <hyphenated> harisund_: of course
[05:07] <poningru> harisund_: precisely for 18 months
[05:07] <harisund_> poningru yeah.. I am using Breezy, and it is quite convenient..
[05:07] <harisund_> ah good to hear that ..
[05:07] <nandovieira> hi... my gnome is not showing progs on taskbar, not loading icons on main menu... all after updating... anyone knows what is happening?
[05:07] <Ummmmm> der0b, look at 'properties' in synaptic for the packages you've installed
[05:07] <der0b> thanks ummmmm
[05:07] <harisund_> any does anybody know how to tell mplayer that I have w32codecs installed? somehow I get the feeling it doesn't even know that :(
[05:08] <Jowi> need sleep. 'night all
[05:08] <harisund_> poninguru, in some ways I find Breezy more convenient .For example, I could easily setup XDMCP on GDM in Breezy, the gconf-editor is available from the menu...
[05:09] <der0b> ummmmm: I'm actually using kubuntu so all I have is adept which doesn't seem to tell me where things are installed to
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> harisund_,  and here i just edit the gdm config file.. :P
[05:10] <Flannel> der0b: so, install SPM ;)
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> i ermber when gdm had its own 'configure' feature ya could get to from the gdm screen.. but i guess that was too confiuseing for users.
[05:11] <Flannel> or use apt
[05:11] <Ummmmm> use apt
[05:11] <harisund_> Dr Willis: Yeah, I guess that is a good idea too..  I ended up doing that of course. Do you know whether GDM has to be running or not running in order to login remotely?
[05:11] <Ummmmm> sudo umount /mnt/media
[05:11] <Ummmmm> oooops :p
[05:12] <Dr_Willis> harisund_,  i think it does. i normally enable it. :P so its always running anyway
[05:12] <harisund_> Dr Willis: What is the other machine that you use to login to Ubuntu?
[05:13] <chriskilmer> Hi folks.  I need some help with my wireless config
[05:13] <chriskilmer> i have a dell 8500 that i just installed Breezy on
[05:13] <fsd> anyone have an idea why a ubuntu box running dhcp resorts back to its old dhcp address after a while, after ive changed it to a static address via ifconfig?
[05:13] <fsd> 5.10 installed
[05:14] <fsd> fresh a couple of days ago
[05:14] <Dr_Willis> harisund_,  linux of some type. :P often a live cd even.
[05:14] <harisund_> fsd: I think if you change it via ifconfig it is only temporary, for that session.
[05:14] <chriskilmer> when i view the network applet, i do not even see my wireless card listed
[05:14] <fsd> harisund_: know how i can set it permanently?
[05:14] <DarkElf109> fsd: Try /etc/network/interfaces
[05:14] <harisund_> Dr_Willis: What is the command you use? I tried it only on Cygwin in Windows.
[05:14] <harisund_> fsd You will have to edit your /etc/network/interfaces file.
[05:14] <jadaz87> cafuego
[05:15] <fsd> i was hoping not to touch interfaces :(
[05:15] <fsd> oh well
[05:15] <fsd> thanks for the help guys
[05:15] <DarkElf109> fsd: You could use the network config dialog
[05:15] <fsd> ssh only
[05:15] <Dr_Willis> harisund_,  hmm.. the gdm login screen on the other disrtos (and kdm) both have a item to search.. or ya use 'startx -- query' i think.. i aint done it manually in ages
[05:15] <DarkElf109> fsd: Well, then, interfaces it is =)
[05:16] <DarkElf109> fsd: You could always run a headless VNC, if you like GUIs and all that
[05:16] <fsd> na no gui for me
[05:16] <fsd> ill just do interfaces
[05:16] <harisund_> Dr_Willis: Ok so it is using -query. Thanks, I was just curious about that.
[05:16] <beto123> hola
[05:16] <Dr_Willis> harisund_,  i think.. ya should google for it. :p
[05:16] <beto123> como fuciona
[05:16] <beto123> esto
[05:17] <_jason> !es
[05:17] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[05:17] <harisund_> Dr_willis: no need to.. you are right.. that is what needs to be done. Thanks !
[05:17] <Dr_Willis> harisund_,  of course i am! :P  lol
[05:17] <Dr_Willis> harisund_,  handy little feature - that often gets over looked.
[05:18] <harisund_> That aside, what is the general opinion of the users? Is Automatix better or Easy Ubuntu?
[05:19] <Flannel> !automatix
[05:19] <ubotu> somebody said automatix was unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, such as !easyubuntu.
[05:19] <Flannel> that's it harisund_ ;)
[05:19] <linux_galore> ubotu: use easyubuntu
[05:19] <ubotu> linux_galore: I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:19] <harisund_> Ah ! Super neat Flannel.. thanks !
[05:19] <fsd> DarkElf109: mind if i pm you for a minute?
[05:19] <linux_galore> ??
[05:19] <orbin> linux_galore: ubotu is an irc bot
[05:19] <DarkElf109> fsd: Go ahead
[05:19] <orbin> ubotu: tell linux_galore about yourself
[05:20] <wy> Hi all. I've trouble making xrefactory working with linux kernel source
[05:20] <fsd> private messages from unregistered users are currently blocked due to spam problems, but you can always message a staffer. pl
[05:20] <fsd> ugh
[05:20] <linux_galore> aaah
[05:20] <pax> easyubuntu is not any safer unless you know and trust wherever repos they use.
[05:20] <codecaine> I installed samba when i select a directory I want to share files in folders shares it doesn't come up active on my windows pc
[05:20] <xerophyte> did anybody got the cyrus-imapd work with saslauthd ?? i am having problem cyrus-imapd find the saslauthd .. because of the chroot does anybody know any workd around that ??
[05:20] <linux_galore> theres another one for dapper
[05:21] <linux_galore> jdub linked it before
[05:21] <DarkElf109> fsd: /msg nickserv register <pass> <email>, if I remember right
[05:21] <sfllaw> So...  I have a hypothetical situation.
[05:22] <sfllaw> Let's say you own a Thinkpad.
[05:22] <DarkElf109> sfllaw: We have a hypothetical solution!
[05:22] <sfllaw> And let's say it's an old Thinkpad.
[05:22] <blindx> What's the mencoder switch to change movie format? Like, I have an avi, I want to change it to an mpeg.. I just don't remember the switch.. :|
[05:22] <sfllaw> And let's say you dropped it one too many times.
[05:22] <IceTox> Anyone good with installing apache on apt-get? I've got an error while processing apache: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12875
[05:22] <sfllaw> What's a good Thinkpad to buy, if you were, I dunno, thinking of putting Ubuntu on it?
[05:22] <sfllaw> Hypothetically speaking.
[05:22] <linux_galore> sfllaw: the older PIII models work perfect
[05:23] <t0p> Is there a fault in the dapper live cd installer? Ppl on forums etc been saying its wiped their disks
[05:23] <Flannel> thinking about it hypothetically, sfllaw? ;)
[05:23] <_jason> !dapper
[05:23] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support :)
[05:23] <sfllaw> Flannel: The laptop still works.  But I travel a lot.
[05:23] <linux_galore> T40 works fine with Ubuntu
[05:23] <sfllaw> And it's been dropped n times now.
[05:23] <blindx> IceTox, I just tried and got the same error. Don't know why
[05:24] <Flannel> !hardware
[05:24] <ubotu> hardware is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[05:24] <tonyyarusso> sfllaw, Why hypothetically?  Running on a T43 myself.
[05:24] <ubuntu> Hello all
[05:24] <Flannel> woohoo.  there is one.
[05:24] <crimsun> sfllaw: #ubuntu-laptop, topic
[05:24] <Flannel> sfllaw: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptops
[05:24] <tonyyarusso> Flannel, We would lecture you about !fishing......but you were right.   ;)
[05:24] <Flannel> but, thehardware support will get you there
[05:24] <crimsun> sfllaw: in essence, "most of the ThinkPads barring the new *6 series"
[05:24] <minerale> can anyone tell me if it's worth it to run the amd64 branch considering the better performance vs missing out on flash and codecs?
[05:24] <chriskilmer> i've got a dell inspiron 8500 laptop that i have just installed ubuntu on.  i wanted to config my wireless.  however, when i use the network applet to view my connections, my wifi card isn't even listed.  can anyone provide some suggestions?  i've googled my head out and haven't found the answer.
[05:24] <blindx> What's the mencoder switch to change movie format? Like, I have an avi, I want to change it to an mpeg.. I just don't remember the switch.. :|
[05:24] <Flannel> tonyyarusso: grin, I got lucky
[05:25] <linux_galore> sfllaw: good link with info on many laptops many with Ubuntu installed -> http://tuxmobil.org/distribution_linux_laptop_ubuntu.html
[05:26] <sfllaw> Beautiful.  You're all wonderful people.
[05:26] <blindx> Thanks :D
[05:27] <jadaz87> flannel how do i remove packages that were installed along with kubuntu-desktop?
[05:27] <jadaz87> flannel all together i mean
[05:27] <DarkElf109> blindx: You can stop asking. If anybody knows, you'll find out =)
[05:27] <orbin> chriskilmer: there are a few forum topics it seems
[05:28] <Flannel> er, there's some... debfoster.  except I believe theres a new packaging program that will do it, I really don't know.
[05:28] <linux_galore> I noticed Lenovo are already making the laptops with cheap none Linux supported stuff, unlike when they were under IBM
[05:28] <blindx> Well thanks for responding, DarkElf109. Now I know I'm not being ignored.
[05:28] <DarkElf109> blindx: Glad to help =) I'm looking it up now, btw, so, if I find anything, I'll let you know
[05:28] <sfllaw> Well, whadaya know.  Hubert bought a Z60t.
[05:29] <linux_galore> I have a feeling Lenovo are going to totally stuff up the linux support to keep the things cheap and everyone will swap to macbooks
[05:30] <sfllaw> That's too bad.  X11 likes three buttons.
[05:30] <DarkElf109> blindx: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/menc-feat-vcd-dvd.html#menc-feat-vcd-dvd-lavc might help
[05:30] <blindx> thanks, I'll check it out
[05:31] <linux_galore> hmm Z60t works with Ubuntu with some stuffing around
[05:32] <ubuntu> is there anyway to test my laptop hardware if it is compatible with Mandriv , before installing it?
[05:33] <DarkElf109> ubuntu: You mean...Ubuntu?
[05:33] <ubuntu> no
[05:33] <Flannel> ubuntu: I suppose you should check their website for hardware compatability.
[05:34] <ubuntu> Thank you
[05:34] <Flannel> ubuntu: I have no idea if they have one, but I don't think you expected anyone here to.
[05:34] <ubuntu> ok
[05:34] <holycow> ubuntu, why the hell would you ask that here?
[05:34] <jadaz87> !language
[05:34] <ubotu> Please watch your language. We try to be nice and help but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
[05:34] <sfllaw> holycow: Excuse me.
[05:34] <ubuntu> thanks
[05:34] <codecaine> why don't samba don't work with windows on ubuntu?
[05:34] <Flannel> codecaine: it does?
[05:35] <holycow> ubuntu, why don't you just phone/email/surfe their forums?
[05:35] <holycow> asking that here is like asking for windows help in #fedora
[05:35] <DarkElf109> ubuntu: http://wwwnew.mandriva.com/community/mandrivaone
[05:35] <jadaz87> does anyone know what the direct address for the universe repos so i can download a debfile directly from it?
[05:35] <DarkElf109> Hey, guys, calm down. Don't have to get evangelical...'least he's using Linux, at least
[05:35] <holycow> whats wrong with you? don't speak english?
[05:35] <codecaine> doesn't show the shows folder shows that an smb is up but not directory
[05:36] <sfllaw> holycow: Please be civil.
[05:36] <holycow> can't handle the slightest thing that doesn't fit into your little categorical world view
[05:36] <holycow> right?
[05:36] <jadaz87> !tell holycow about conduct
[05:36] <holycow> lol or what?
[05:37] <jadaz87> does anyone know what the direct address for the universe repos so i can download a debfile directly from it?
[05:37] <tritium> holycow: be nice
[05:37] <holycow> this has nothing to do about civility, i like what you guys preach its great
[05:38] <linux_galore> jadaz87: ttp://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[05:38] <linux_galore> http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[05:39] <jadaz87> linux_galore is that the dapper one?
[05:39] <linux_galore> jadaz87: the directories are marked
[05:39] <DarkElf109> jadaz87: Head into dists/dapper, and you're golden
[05:40] <_jason> jadaz87: packages.ubuntu.com would probably be easier
[05:40] <jadaz87> _jason linux_galore thank you all
[05:40] <Apostle^> wow just set up dualboot with linux/windows xp
[05:41] <Apostle^> ubuntu is great
[05:41] <linux_galore> jadaz87: this one works sorry last one seems to not work -> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/
[05:41] <DarkElf109> Apostle^: Congrats!  Not a big deal.  The drivers keep getting better
[05:44] <DarkElf109> 0_0
[05:44] <linux_galore> Apostle^: there are tools in Linux for overclocking ati stuff
[05:44] <Apostle^> linux_galore: the driver is too poor not worth it
[05:44] <Apostle^> i cant even run d3 on low in linux
[05:44] <DarkElf109> Apostle^: The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. I'd reckon it's the best PC RPG ever created
[05:45] <IceTox> ok, thanks for trying blindx :-)
[05:45] <Apostle^> oh i dont play rpg's
[05:45] <DarkElf109> Apostle^: Bah. You're dead to me now =P
[05:45] <Apostle^> im dling quake 4, call of duty 2, f.e.a.r and battle field 1942
[05:45] <steel> does elder scrolls work in cedega?
[05:45] <Apostle^> haha
[05:45] <DarkElf109> steel: Morrowind should...you'll have to check their site to see if Oblivion's working yet
[05:45] <Apostle^> DarkElf109: i setup windows with the ext2 driver already :-P
[05:46] <Apostle^> dunno if i should bother mounting my NTFS part in linux, no point really.
[05:46] <DarkElf109> steel: I will say, even if it is, you're better off dual booting for this one game...it's worth it entirely
[05:46] <steel> yea, i have it, jsut wonderin'
[05:46] <Apostle^> i have a humungous HD
[05:46] <mischko> How do I switch from Kubunto to Ubuntu
[05:46] <mischko> ?
[05:46] <DarkElf109> Apostle^: Well, there's that new writable NTFS driver, that operates on the same principals as ndiswrapper
[05:46] <Apostle^> so i pretty much do whatever i want
[05:46] <Apostle^> eh no need since i can read/write from windows
[05:47] <Apostle^> i just like to DL torrents on linux, so i can have it on and just switch to windows for gaming
[05:47] <linux_galore> mischko:  sudo apt-get install  ubuntu-desktop
[05:47] <DarkElf109> mischko: Installation, or simply on boot?
[05:47] <steel> how are you able to wreite onto your windows partition?
[05:47] <DarkElf109> Apostle^: Torrents of creative commons music and linux distributions, right? *wink wink nudge nudge*
[05:47] <Apostle^> DarkElf109: whats a good action game ?
[05:47] <Elazar> Running FF <IP_ADDRESS>. Anyone know how I can have it interpret a middle-click on the mouse as clicking on the Back button?
[05:47] <linux_galore> steel: is it ntfs
[05:47] <Apostle^> DarkElf109: you know it brotha
[05:48] <steel> i can't write to mine...
[05:48] <steel> i mounted it... but no writey
[05:48] <linux_galore> steel: is its a ntfs partition
[05:48] <mischko> DarkElf109: I'm running kubuntu 5.1 now and wanted to switch to Gnome Ubuntu.
[05:48] <linux_galore> steel: Microsoft hasnt documented NTFS
[05:48] <Apostle^> DarkElf109: ubersoldier looks nice.
[05:48] <steel> oh
[05:48] <steel> ok
[05:49] <DarkElf109> steel: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaptiveHowTo?highlight=%28captive%29%7C%28ntfs%29
[05:49] <linux_galore> steel: you can get an app called "captive" that allows read write to a NTFS partition from Linux but if things break dont complain
[05:49] <DarkElf109> Apostle^: I've been playing BF2 and UT2k4 for a while now...they're both still great games
[05:49] <Apostle^> DarkElf109: yea
[05:49] <linux_galore> steel: http://www.jankratochvil.net/project/captive/
[05:50] <steel> thanks
[05:50] <Apostle^> DarkElf109: dude check out ubersoldier i just looked @ a screen, it looks insane
[05:50] <DarkElf109> mischko: Yeah, do like linux_galore said and get ubuntu-desktop, then, on boot, select gnome instead of kde
[05:50] <steel> ill just keep it non-writable
[05:50] <steel> no need to frack it up
[05:50] <DarkElf109> Apostle^: You seen the shots from the next FarCry game yet? It looks as close to real as I've ever seen
[05:50] <linux_galore> steel: just get a USB thumb drive, end of problem
[05:50] <DarkElf109> linux_galore: 2gb file limit
[05:50] <linux_galore> steel: or next time create a 1Gb fat32 partition
[05:51] <DarkElf109> linux_galore: Or 4? I forget...
[05:51] <linux_galore> 4Gb
[05:51] <Apostle^> DarkElf109: no i havent, i have far-cry on a dvd.. not sure if i will install it on my windows, i have beaten it already long time ago:-P
[05:51] <DarkElf109> Meh. Still a problem when you're working with DVD images
[05:51] <linux_galore> think it depends on your sector size
[05:51] <DarkElf109> Nah, Fat32 is limited to 4gb per file
[05:52] <badfish> What's goin on all.
[05:52] <River> can anyone tell me if I need to put in a symlink to get the macromedia flash working in Ubuntu
[05:52] <linux_galore> steel: the fat32 partition can be read by Linux and Windows
[05:52] <linux_galore> steel: and you can write to it
[05:53] <steel> so... its kind of the middle man
[05:53] <DarkElf109> steel: I've used captive a bit, and I've never had problems with it...just a liability thing. Same as any alpha software
[05:53] <EvilolivE_> linux_galore: fat32 have a max size limit??
[05:53] <linux_galore> steel: yes, just a dumping area
[05:53] <steel> ok thaks
[05:53] <DarkElf109> EvilolivE_: Yeah. 4gb/file.
[05:53] <linux_galore> EvilolivE_: yeah there a partition limit and a file limit
[05:53] <DarkElf109> Only really a problem with videos and DVD images
[05:54] <linux_galore> EvilolivE_: both are a none issue for me with linux as i have XFS and that has a 3,000 Tb file limit  lol
[05:54] <Apostle^> DarkElf109: check this out, looks pretty damn good ... http://www.dailygame.net/Articles/media/screens/ubersold/ubersold2.jpg
[05:55] <TTT_Travis> how can I delete all mpg files in a several folders deep recursively
[05:55] <TTT_Travis> It would take forever todo folder by folder
[05:55] <DarkElf109> Apostle^: http://uk.media.pc.ign.com/media/694/694190/imgs_1.html
[05:55] <DarkElf109> Apostle^: I win =)
[05:56] <Apostle^> DarkElf109: HOLY MACARONI
[05:56] <Apostle^> DarkElf109: are those in game?
[05:56] <badfish> TTT_Travis
[05:56] <badfish> did you get your answer?
[05:56] <badfish> I can help otherwise
[05:57] <theplateau> hey its been a while since ive burned linux, i have completley forgot how to do it using nero
[05:57] <linux_galore> TTT_Travis: you need to use two tools the file command and the rm -r command
[05:57] <theplateau> can someone help remind me
[05:57] <DarkElf109> Apostle^: Sorta. They're rendered with the new CryTech engine, or whatever it's called. It's the engine that the game will use, in-game
[05:57] <[Rodrigo> !xgl
[05:57] <fluvvell> theplateau, do you have an .iso file?
[05:57] <ubotu> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/XglHowto - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. It works ONLY on dapper. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/
[05:57] <theplateau> i just attempted to burn and the actual iso was burned
[05:57] <theplateau> yea
[05:57] <TTT_Travis> badfish I still need an answer
[05:57] <badfish> TTT_TRAVIS:  find /pathname -name \*.mpg -exec rm -f {} \;
[05:57] <TTT_Travis> k
[05:57] <TTT_Travis> thanks
[05:57] <badfish> np
[05:57] <DarkElf109> theplateau: Download an iso, go to Recorder>Burn Image, find it, burn it
[05:58] <linux_galore> sorry the find command and rm -r
[05:58] <badfish> that will find all .mpg files in /pathname and remove them.
[05:58] <fluvvell> theplateau, I just used k3b last time, you select burn cd image
[05:58] <badfish> TTT_Travis, make sure you get the slashes right!
[05:58] <theplateau> on the left is it
[05:58] <theplateau> cd rom iso
[05:58] <theplateau> or cd rom boot
[05:58] <DarkElf109> iso
[05:59] <River> I have just upgraded firefox to 1.5 and am trying to get my plugins working,
[05:59] <River> have used synapyic to install java and symlinked them so they work well, have synaptic'd macromedia plugins as well but don't know the symlink ... can anyone help ?
[05:59] <Apostle^> DarkElf109: i bet the req's to play that game = like 2gb ram @ minimum
[05:59] <Apostle^> DarkElf109: and a sli card
[05:59] <AngryElf> what is 802.3 as it relates to 802.11b/g?
[05:59] <DarkElf109> Apostle^: I'm gonna go out on a limb and bet that, to get the advanced graphics, a physics card is required =P
[05:59] <DarkElf109> AngryElf: 802.3 is ethernet
[05:59] <TTT_Travis> badfish worked like a charm
[06:00] <HiDeo> 802.3 = ethernet
[06:00] <TTT_Travis> thanks allot
[06:00] <Apostle^> DarkElf109: cold fusion lol
[06:00] <linux_galore> badfish: surprised no one has added a plugin to any of the file browser to recursive delete or rename folder, its a common question
[06:00] <AngryElf> DarkElf109, as in plain ordinary ethernet?
[06:00] <DarkElf109> Apostle^: Heh. Cold fusion power supply =P
[06:00] <DarkElf109> AngryElf: Yup. Plain old ethernet
[06:00] <HiDeo> yes
[06:00] <HiDeo> read ccna
[06:00] <DarkElf109> As specified by the IEEE in 199*
[06:00] <DarkElf109> I *think* it was '97
[06:01] <AngryElf> is there a reason most wireless routers are toting 802.3 all of a sudden?...correct me if i'm wrong but that wasn't the case a couple months back
[06:01] <fluvvell> can anyone who recently compiled from a tar.gz, remind me what " No rule to make target `modules'. " indicates that I should install which packages first?
[06:01] <DarkElf109> I just looked this stuff up yesterday...was reading an article on cluster hookups =P
[06:01] <fluvvell> I thought I had all my sources in....
[06:01] <linux_galore> AngryElf: security
[06:01] <DarkElf109> fluvvell: Untar, ./configure, make, make install
[06:02] <badfish> Anyone else have sound hissing issues?
[06:02] <steel> how do i share my ubuntu files to other people with linux; and people with windows
[06:02] <DarkElf109> AngryElf: You sure it's not 802.1x?
[06:02] <badfish> I'm on a HP nc6220 laptop
[06:02] <AngryElf> no, it's .3
[06:02] <linux_galore> steel: samba
[06:02] <fluvvell> yeah, thanks DarkElf109, thats where i get the No rule to make... comment from
[06:02] <crimsun> badfish: please elaborate
[06:02] <AngryElf> i've just seen it a lot on websites selling them lately
[06:02] <linux_galore> steel: of setup an ftp server
[06:02] <steel> so... /join #samba and stop botherign you?
[06:02] <linux_galore> or*
[06:03] <DarkElf109> steel: Nah. We can help!
[06:03] <Owner> HI, i have a weird problem where my monitor gives me a "frequency out of range" error
[06:03] <steel> hehe
[06:03] <steel> lemme just look up ftp servers for a bit
[06:03] <Owner> i can still use the computer cause i can hear the login sound...but i can't see anything
[06:03] <Owner> any help?
[06:03] <fluvvell> DarkElf, I've got kernel headers, source and build essential in, but still no go...
[06:03] <linux_galore> steel: depends how complex you want it to be, for simple file sharing ftp is for fine but for more complex stuff use samba
[06:03] <blindx> Why is it so incredibly hard to burn a VCD? I finally get the AVI converted to mpeg format, CDRDAO is missing. whatever, install that. Now VCDIMAGER is missing. wtf..
[06:03] <bon_> hi i got a problem installing a plugin for gwenview "piwiz" for resizeing photos this is what i get http://pastebin.com/680360
[06:04] <DarkElf109> steel: apt-get install samba, then go to...something. Hold on =P
[06:04] <steel> heh
[06:04] <DarkElf109> fluvvell: Still a 'modules' error? What are you compiling?
[06:04] <noiesmo> Owner, do Ctrl+Alt+F2 from here you can login and reconfigure your xserver
[06:04] <steel> i got that far
[06:04] <orbin> ubotu: tell Owner about xorg
[06:04] <linux_galore> blindx: I use k3b, total no brainer when it comes to burning
[06:05] <River> can anyone help me with a symlink command line ?
[06:05] <blindx> linux_galore, i AM using k3b
[06:05] <fluvvell> DarkElf109, its a kernel module for Intel536EP modem, I've done it before on another machine, the howto has changed a little at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=97983&highlight=536ep but I'm missing something....
[06:05] <linux_galore> blindx: hmm, wonder if its a bug
[06:05] <Owner> how can i get dir to show me hidden files also?
[06:05] <bon_> hi i got a problem installing a plugin for gwenview "picwiz" for resizeing photos this is what i get http://pastebin.com/680360
[06:05] <DarkElf109> steel: Once you've got samba installed, right click a folder, select Sharing..., select samba, and wotk from there
[06:05] <hajuu> hey guys.. need an ident server for irc... anyone know how to do that?
[06:05] <crimsun> try oidentd
[06:05] <blindx> it doesn't burn avi files. also, it doesn't resample mpgs, they have to be in VCD format or they don't burn correctly.
[06:06] <DarkElf109> Owner: ls -a
[06:06] <linux_galore> blindx: have a look on the k3b home page there have been some weird bugs with set file types, all fixed now
[06:06] <steel> how do i make windows computers see it
[06:07] <DarkElf109> steel: Make sure it's on the same domain/workgroup
[06:07] <bon_> does anyone know a good program for batch resizing photo's?
[06:07] <orbin> Owner: hidden ones start w/ a .
[06:07] <steel> yea got that
[06:07] <csixty4> hi all
[06:07] <steel> what should i put for host description?
[06:07] <DarkElf109> fluvvell: Hrm. Not sure what the problem would be...sorry =/
[06:07] <DarkElf109> steel: Whatever you want =) It's a personal thing
[06:07] <dapperdude> if I wanted to shutdown linux in say 2 hrs, what exact command/string should I enter
[06:07] <River> can anyone point me inthe right direction to find a symlink ?
[06:07] <fluvvell> ok DarkElf109, thanks.  Anyone else care to have a stab at it?
[06:07] <steel> whats WINS server?
[06:07] <linux_galore> blindx: I backed up all my anime stuff last week with k3b 0.12.4  worked fine avi vcd the lot
[06:08] <DarkElf109> dapperdude: shutdown -hP +120
[06:08] <blindx> linux_galore, the link underneath "K3b 0.12.15 (KDE 3.2)" -- can i still use that if I'm on gnome? :\
[06:08] <DarkElf109> steel: Shouldn't need it
[06:08] <dapperdude> darkelf thanks
[06:08] <linux_galore> blindx: yes
[06:08] <linux_galore> blindx: as long as you have kde installed
[06:08] <blindx> ...
[06:08] <blindx> I don't
[06:08] <linux_galore> blindx: then no
[06:09] <linux_galore> blindx: how can you use k3b then if you dont have kde installed
[06:09] <steel> :\ i'm still not seen by my friend in the workgroup
[06:09] <DarkElf109> linux_galore: kdelibs package =)
[06:09] <linux_galore> aaah
[06:09] <blindx> linux_galore, I didn't specially install it. does it come installed?
[06:09] <linux_galore> blindx: should work
[06:09] <DarkElf109> steel: Try sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[06:09] <Owner> thanks a lot orbin, that ubotu tip worked, i appreciate it
[06:09] <blindx> it should work?
[06:10] <blindx> im so confused.
[06:10] <linux_galore> blindx: if you have k3b working it will work
[06:10] <blindx> ok.
[06:10] <linux_galore> blindx: the new one will
[06:10] <steel> ah, thanks
[06:10] <orbin> Owner: no sweat
[06:10] <linux_galore> the k3b guys build against older versions of kde not the new one so it should work
[06:10] <fluvvell> steel, have you shared a file or folder?  Get your friend on windows to do a search for computer, use the name of your machine
[06:11] <bon_> does anyone know a good program for batch resizing photo's? kununtu
[06:11] <DarkElf109> steel: Oh, yeah, you actually needa make a share, too =P
[06:11] <steel> eh?
[06:11] <fluvvell> bon_ ,  ImageMagix has programs to do that
[06:11] <DarkElf109> steel: Make sure you actually have a folder shared
[06:11] <linux_galore> bon_: yeah theres a plugin for Konqueror that does that
[06:12] <DarkElf109> steel: System>Administration>Shared Folders
[06:12] <bon_> mmh ok thx
[06:12] <fluvvell> libmagick6 I think
[06:12] <steel> ah yes
[06:12] <Owner> is there a way to "demote" to breezy from dapper without data loss or format?
[06:12] <DarkElf109> Man...I should come in here more often...I had no idea I knew so much =P
[06:12] <Owner> degrade would be a better term
[06:13] <fluvvell> bon_ , sorry its imagemagick
[06:13] <blindx> do i have to uninstall the old version of k3b before i install the new one?
[06:13] <DarkElf109> Owner: Downgrade =) But, you could try removing the dapper sources from /etc/apt/sources.list, apt-get updating, and apt-get upgrading...I think...It's not safe in the least bit, mind you
[06:13] <linux_galore> Owner: only if you have a /home partition
[06:13] <Owner> blah...i'll just reinstall from scratch
[06:14] <steel> server Enterthegame
[06:14] <linux_galore> bon_: let me get a link for you
[06:14] <steel> oops
[06:15] <DarkElf109> Now, back to why I came in here...
[06:15] <DarkElf109> is it possible to configure auto-login with LTSP clients? I've searched the 'net and forums high and low, and there have only been vague mentionings of it. If it is possible, how is it done? (I'm trying this with edubuntu, but, since that channel's pretty empty, thought I'd try in here)
[06:15] <julien_c> I just installed Ubuntu Breezer on my other comp, and it stats in terminal... is it normal ?
[06:15] <julien_c> starts*
[06:15] <bon_> thx very much think i might have it
[06:15] <bon_> installed it but can find it
[06:15] <hajuu> fuck I cant download anything from universe... why might that be? I can update my lists, but anything wont download from there
[06:15] <DarkElf109> julien_c: Have you tried restarting? It may just be a one-time thing
[06:15] <DarkElf109> !language
[06:15] <ubotu> Please watch your language. We try to be nice and help but some of us don't like to see such things on our screen.
[06:16] <hajuu> My bad.
[06:16] <steel> julien_c: try starting your GUI
[06:16] <DarkElf109> =)
[06:16] <csixty4> what do you mean it starts in terminal?  It starts x but opens a terminal window (I think this is normal), or it starts in the full-screen console?
[06:16] <bon_> linux_galore : installed it but can find it
[06:16] <DarkElf109> julien_c: If you wanna force it open, as an interim solution, use /etc/init.d/gdm start
[06:16] <julien_c> csixty4: full screen console
[06:16] <csixty4> ouch
[06:16] <blindx> how do i uninstall a program on ubuntu?
[06:16] <orbin> hajuu: using a mirror?
[06:16] <DarkElf109> Nah, no biggy, assuming that X isn't borked already
[06:16] <orbin> blindx: depends on how you installed it
[06:17] <DarkElf109> blindx: apt-get remove <package>
[06:17] <hajuu> im using the australian mirror, cause I dont seem to even be able to get a list from the us servers
[06:17] <DarkElf109> Alright guys. I've got work to do. If anyone needs me, feel free to message =)
[06:18] <orbin> hajuu: really? i've never had a problem w/ the official sources here in melb.
[06:18] <orbin> ubotu: tell hajuu about sources
[06:18] <julien_c> -bash: /etc/init.d/gdm: no such fire or directory
[06:18] <linux_galore> bon_: there are a few tools heres one http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=32338 and another http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=11505
[06:18] <blindx> Hm. I removed the old version of k3b, but the new ./configure tells me to remove the old version :\

[06:19] <zyth> jadaz87, me and some idle person
[06:19] <jadaz87> hey i will join to accompany you
[06:19] <linux_galore> bon_: with the konqueror one you just right click on the image
[06:19] <bon_> linux_galore : ok i will just check them out
[06:20] <linux_galore> bon_: there a menu there for resize change format exapand etc
[06:20] <linux_galore> bon_: flip it around
[06:21] <linux_galore> bon_: digicam can also do all that stuff too
[06:21] <linux_galore> sorry type digiKam
[06:22] <zyth> Is there 3d support for ATI Rage chipset in X w/o using ATI drivers?
[06:22] <julien_c> i'll try reinstalling everything, it looks like nothing got installed
[06:22] <linux_galore> bon_: I use digikam to manage all my images
[06:23] <bon_> i am useing kubuntu and i quite like gwenview
[06:23] <steel> man... i can't get my ftp to work... i know i just haven't started it or something like that
[06:23] <zyth> steel, did you open port 21 on your firewall?
[06:23] <zyth> :D
[06:23] <majd> does ubuntu come with a builtin C compiler?
[06:23] <steel> hah nope
[06:23] <majd> steel, was that to me?
[06:24] <linux_galore> digikam allows you to manage images http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=9957 and even has plugins http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=16082
[06:24] <zyth> majd, apt-get install gcc I think would do it.
[06:24] <steel> it was to anyone who could help me out
[06:24] <AviF> is the "revolution" irc thread up yet?
[06:24] <majd> oh ok
[06:24] <majd> zyth, thanks
[06:24] <linux_galore> bon_: if you load a gtk app your loading two libs thus slowing the machine down more than needed
[06:24] <majd> is it ANSI C compatible?
[06:24] <zyth> yes
[06:24] <Ophiocus> hi there, how can i check that i have xgl on my system?
[06:25] <joelbryan> !wma
[06:25] <AviF> from the ubuntu cafe in the forums
[06:25] <ubotu> from memory, restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[06:25] <blindx> I'm really having some troubles coping with linux :@
[06:25] <steel> how do i figure out my local IP address in ubuntu?
[06:25] <linux_galore> Ophiocus: trust me if you have XGL you know it
[06:25] <blindx> I go to install this, it needs that. I go to install that, it needs that other thing.
[06:25] <blindx> I go to install that other thing. it needs something else.
[06:25] <bon_> linux_galore : never knew that but i am still learning about linux
[06:25] <linux_galore> blindx: use apt-get install digikam
[06:25] <blindx> what's that linux_galore
[06:25] <zyth> blindx, are you using apt-get? it automagically handles all the dependancies.
[06:25] <steel> i need the equivalent of 'ipconfig' in windows
[06:26] <blindx> no, it's not IN apt-get
[06:26] <noiesmo> steel, ifconfig
[06:26] <zyth> steel: ifconfig
[06:26] <steel> ohh tricky
[06:26] <linux_galore> blindx: apt-get installs applications from the kubuntu/ubuntu repositories on the internet
[06:26] <blindx> yes, i know that
[06:26] <blindx> i was asking what "digikam" was
[06:26] <Ophiocus> linux_galore:  well things like 3d screensavers that used to crawl on breezy are hammer fast in dapper, that means xgl right?
[06:26] <AviF> hello?
[06:26] <steel> can i connect to my own FTP server on the same comp?
[06:26] <linux_galore> blindx: digikam is the all in one image/digital camera manager for kde
[06:26] <MEtaLpREs> yes
[06:27] <blindx> linux_galore, why would i want/need that? :\
[06:27] <linux_galore> Ophiocus: no
[06:27] -gromov:#ubuntu- LOL http://lnk.bz/oh
[06:27] <Ophiocus> linux_galore:  how could i "prove myself" xgl is installed?
[06:27] <linux_galore> Ophiocus: XGL sticks out like  soar thumb, everything is heavily animated, grab a terminal window and when you move it it flexes like its made of rubber
[06:28] <AviF> does anyone now?
[06:28] <AviF> know
[06:28] -gromov:#ubuntu- LOL http://lnk.bz/oh
[06:28] <linux_galore> bon_: sorry wrong name
[06:28] <julien_c> linux_galore: wow lol... eye candy at its best
[06:28] <linux_galore> blindx: sorry wrong name ack
[06:28] <blindx> lmfao
[06:28] <BuckWild> Ophiocus, no, that means openGL, what the eff
[06:28] <bon_> yeah do with that
[06:29] <blindx> this fu**ing thing won't install :@
[06:29] <BuckWild> XGL is next gen cool shit
[06:29] <AviF> please?
[06:29] <BuckWild> I wish it would come installed on dapper dammit...
[06:29] <rolim> hi,
[06:29] <Ophiocus> i c
[06:29] <linux_galore> yeah but XGL is still experimental

[06:29] <fluvvell> steel, you can connect to your own machine on any server you run
[06:29] -gromov:#ubuntu- LOL http://lnk.bz/oh
[06:29] <AviF> hello!?
[06:30] <fluvvell> steel, it should be started automatically

[06:30] <da3rX> this dude's spamming me with this link
[06:30] <BuckWild> Ophiocus, you have to run dapper first, and I dunno, I couldn't get it working
[06:30] <BuckWild> good luck with it
[06:30] <AviF> you know the revolution topic on the forums
[06:30] <Madpilot> da3rX, he spammed the whole channel
[06:30] <blindx> da3rX, don't follow it.
[06:30] <Apostle^> !ntfs
[06:30] <ubotu> rumour has it, ntfs is the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[06:30] <da3rX> i haven't
[06:30] <blindx> trust me. don't follow it
[06:30] <Ophiocus> well so far so good, sourceforge download?
[06:30] <BuckWild> I installed dapper beta with the explicit intention of getting XGL to work and I completely failed
[06:30] <ITSa341> there's a loser in every bunch
[06:31] <Amaranth> BuckWild: #ubuntu-xgl
[06:31] <steel> steel@steel:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd start
[06:31] <steel> ProFTPd is started from inetd/xinetd.
[06:31] <AviF> blindx?
[06:31] <da3rX> yea it seemed to be like a bot, so i didnt
[06:31] <blindx> what Avif?
[06:31] <rolim> please, any helpme
[06:31] <BuckWild> Amaranth, oh don't worry, I'm not going to ask a question, I gave up on that days ago
[06:31] <DarkElf109> steel: /etc/init.d/xinted restart, then
[06:31] <DarkElf109> or inetd, whatever you're running
[06:31] <AviF> do you know the topic in the forums about revolution
[06:31] <blindx> I do not.
[06:32] <DarkElf109> AviF: If you'd like help regarding a certain post on the forum, please provide a lunk
[06:32] <DarkElf109> link*
[06:32] <steel> the restart command didnt work
[06:32] <steel> no such file or directory
[06:32] <AviF> no not about the post
[06:32] <DarkElf109> steel: /etc/init.d/inted restart, then =)
[06:32] <fluvvell> If I recall last time I set it up, ProFTP needs a bit of a tweak after installing
[06:32] <rolim> hey, any helpme
[06:32] <steel> oh yea that either
[06:32] <slavik> yo
[06:32] <orbin> !help
[06:32] <AviF> he was setting up an irc channel and I wanted to know if anyone knew if it was up yet?
[06:32] <Kupal[] > lots of people in ubunto?
[06:32] <rolim> i have my cdrom mounted in /dev/hdb, it is corect?
[06:33] <AviF> no rolim
[06:33] <Kupal[] > So, im an old time debian user.  I wonder should I consider using ubunto?
[06:33] <AviF> that would be a hard drive I believe
[06:33] <steel> rolin: /media/cdrom[0,1,2,3,4]
[06:33] <DarkElf109> Kupal[] : ubunt*u*, and yes, you should =)
[06:33] <zyth> Kupal[] , nah, Unbunto is weird. ;)
[06:33] <blindx> Kupal[] , you joined the channel, it's ubuntu.
[06:33] <bimberi> rolim: yes, if its connected as the primary slave
[06:33] <blindx> I'm surprised you're not talking in #ubunto
[06:34] <Kupal[] > How long would it take me to configure traffic shaping, balancing iptables, on ubuntu?
[06:34] <zyth> hdb = primary IDE slave
[06:34] <rolim> what i need for i fix it?
[06:34] <Kupal[] > I sledgehammer
[06:34] <m5m> Is anyone here running ubuntu on a new Intel Mac?  Heard of anyone doing so?
[06:34] <Kupal[] > rolim hit it with a hammer.
[06:34] <DarkElf109> Kupal[] : If you do it manually, the same time it would take you anywhere else
[06:34] <zyth> m5m, it's been done.
[06:34] <AviF> yes m5m
[06:34] <steel> darkelf109: sorry to bother you in specific, but that didn't work either (no such file or directory)
[06:34] <AviF> picture on the forums
[06:34] <zyth> PPC macs are still better.
[06:34] <bimberi> rolim: nothing, having a cdrom on /dev/hdb is fine
[06:34] <blindx> steel: what are you trying to do again?
[06:34] <fluvvell> steel, have you set ServerType yet in /etc/proftp.conf ?
[06:34] <DarkElf109> steel: Really? inetd should be installed...
[06:35] <m5m> zyth: so there are issues with it?
[06:35] <blindx> proftp, right
[06:35] <steel> start an ftp server
[06:35] <Kupal[] > can osX run on a laptop(intel) with same the chipset as the new macs, the new intel-vt stuff ?
[06:35] <blindx> apache is in the repos, right?
[06:35] <holycow> wewt! ubuntu on a mini pc
[06:35] <holycow> sweet
[06:35] <steel> i apt-get proftd
[06:35] <holycow> okay
[06:35] <zyth> m5m, not that I'm aware of, besides heat.  Apple underclocks the ATI graphics to keep the thing cool.  Ubuntu doesn't.
[06:35] <holycow> is the dude i kinda slandered still around?
[06:35] <DarkElf109> steel: Yeah, check through the config file...probably a setting in there
[06:35] <holycow> i wann appologize
[06:35] <Kupal[] > DarkElf109: some distro's just have the repositorys and the nice configs/or configmakers avail.
[06:35] <DarkElf109> holycow: I think he's gone
[06:35] <steel> ok
[06:35] <alekz> does ubuntu supports SATA hdds ?
[06:35] <DarkElf109> alekz: Yes
[06:36] <Kupal[] > Debian was ahead of its time for the day but is somewhat behind imho.
[06:36] <bimberi> blindx: yes
[06:36] <steel> yea i set the server type to 'inetd'
[06:36] <rolim> but i dont anything with my cdrom
[06:36] <linux_galore> Ophiocus: easy way is to get the kurroo live CD with XGL setup
[06:36] <holycow> ah well ... i can't stand beyond stupid questions ... but i gotta get over that and start being nice i guess :)
[06:36] <Kupal[] > what is better about ubuntu then debian?
[06:36] <DarkElf109> Kupal[] : There are some simple firewalls available, like firestarter and whatvnot, but I've never done enough iptables work to look deeper than that
[06:36] <Kupal[] > or how is it different.
[06:36] <holycow> Kupal[] , not much
[06:36] <fluvvell> steel, try standalone
[06:36] <zyth> Kupal[] , it has a sexier name.
[06:36] <rolim> i need create one iso with commando DD but i dont
[06:36] <joelbryan> hello, how do I install gstreamer wma audio codecs? can't find it in RestrictedFormats
[06:36] <Owner> has anyone had any success running itunes using wine?
[06:36] <Kupal[] > but debian ppl hate #ununto ppl asking questions.
[06:36] <zyth> !wma
[06:36] <ubotu> somebody said restricted was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[06:37] <steel> fluvvell: won't that make my box a dedicated FTP server?
[06:37] <holycow> Kupal[] , its just debian unstable frozen every 6 months + a rich dudes money to support a bunch of people to do the elbow grease bits
[06:37] <bimberi> !tell Kupal[]  about debian
[06:37] <holycow> a rich dude that is pretty darned clever imho too
[06:37] <fluvvell> steel, nope. What are you trying to do though?
[06:37] <Owner> !tell Owner about debian
[06:37] <steel> just share my files to my friends on the intarweb
[06:37] <DarkElf109> steel: That just means it runs independant of inetd or xinetd. It's what you want
[06:38] <steel> oh ok
[06:38] <Kupal[] > Owner?
[06:38] <Kupal[] > Are you the Owner?
[06:38] <Owner> yeah

[06:39] <comrade> lol that's not even bad language
[06:39] <rolim> sorry, i speak portugues, o from brasil
[06:39] <DarkElf109> comrade: It shouldn't. It's exactly the same as on any other OS. I know. I've used it
[06:39] <orbin> holycow: was shuttleworth interested in linux before ubuntu? or is it just a case of it being a project to him?
[06:39] <bimberi> rolim: what is the problem?
[06:39] <DarkElf109> comrade: 'Tis the Joy of Java
[06:39] <comrade> DarkElf109, the visual editor runs terrible, eclipse ran really smooth on this machine in windows
[06:39] <dyneuser> salut
[06:40] <DarkElf109> comrade: That's a plugin. Eclipse itself runs fine, though =)
[06:40] <zyth> comrade, do you have DRI and all that going in X?
[06:40] <scanwinder> im having some trouble getting my tv tuner card(bt878 chipset) to work in ubuntu dapper.  When i open xawtv i get sound but no video.  Can someone please help me resolve this?
[06:40] <rolim> i use dd if=/dev/hdb of=~/StarWar.iso
[06:40] <rolim>     for create one iso
[06:40] <orbin> rolim: did you know there's a brazilian channel?
[06:40] <rolim> but i have error of IO
[06:40] <comrade> zyth, yea, it's slow in general though
[06:40] <minerale> I have a second hard drive at /dev/hda1 ... how can I mount it (it's ntfs)
[06:40] <comrade> it ran good when i was using gentoo, but I never used the visual editor on gentoo
[06:40] <bimberi> rolim: what is the error?
[06:40] <rolim> yes, but he dont know anithing
[06:40] <DarkElf109> minerale: sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1
[06:41] <AviF> or use the disk mounter
[06:41] <rolim> wait
[06:41] <csixty4> anyone know if the bcm43xx driver in Dapper supports the Broadcom 4311?
[06:41] <comrade> i dont see how the visual editor would put that much stress on the system
[06:41] <DarkElf109> comrade: The VE crashes eclipse on one of my Windows boxes, so it working at all is a blessing to me
[06:41] <linux-soldiers> _

[06:41] <DarkElf109> comrade: Has something to do with Java eating resources like a fat guy at a county fair pie eating contest...
[06:42] <zyth> java is evvvvvilll
[06:42] <zyth> apple's java is more evil
[06:42] <zyth> I can't get the newest ver unless I upgrade my whole os.  evil.
[06:42] <monsterb> my Java is outdated :)
[06:42] <julien_c> DarkElf109: nice analogy lol
[06:42] <comrade> DarkElf109, yea i guess I had to change the library too to the sun one, or visual stuff didn't run at all with the default java vm
[06:42] <steel> sweet! it works
[06:42] <DarkElf109> You think Java's bad, you should see C#...takes away the one benefit, that it runs on most OS's =P
[06:42] <linux-soldiers> *
[06:42] <steel> thanks guys
[06:42] <DarkElf109> steel: Glad to help =)

[06:46] <blindx> my first torrent download on ubuntu hit 700kb/s ..and now when I run them, they go to 20kb/s at max, and fluctuate from 1 to 20 during that time. I doubt it's the torrent because it happens with every one. what else could this be?
[06:46] <monsterb> Linux-soldiers: I like XChat. :)
[06:46] <zyth> slaterock, there could be lots of reasons.  Did you edit your wow config to use opengl instead of directx?
[06:46] <slaterock> or, anyone know how to install successfully the fglrx that come with dapper?
[06:47] <bimberi> rolim: does the error happen immediately after you type the command?
[06:47] <rolim> my mount speak /dev/hdb on /media/cdrom .......
[06:47] <rolim> y
[06:47] <slaterock> do you have to remove anyting in the wow config?
[06:47] <scanwinder> slaterock: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Dapper_Installation_Guide
[06:47] <DarkElf109> blindx: What client?
[06:47] <rolim> i use 3kb also and i have prob also
[06:47] <noiesmo> slaterock, http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Dapper_Installation_Guide
[06:47] <slaterock> scanwinder, i've done that a gazillion times
[06:47] <comrade> how are so many people running dapper already
[06:47] <blindx> the default one. what's it.. gnome-btdownload or something?
[06:47] <slaterock> i cannot get it to work
[06:47] <comrade> is it even out yet
[06:47] <scanwinder> slaterock: the bit where i makes you compile stuff?

[06:48] <bimberi> comrade: either testing or impatient (or both) :)
[06:48] <DarkElf109> comrade: You can upgrade to it
[06:48] <scanwinder> slaterock: the method 2 on there works every time for me
[06:48] <comrade> DarkElf109, isn't it still being worked on though

[06:48] <DarkElf109> Believe me, it's the only good Java program =P
[06:48] <minerale> darkelf109: I'm getting 'mount point /mnt/hda1 does not exist'
[06:48] <blindx> DarkElf109, I hate azureus
[06:48] <zyth> DarkElf109, Frostwire is good.
[06:49] <zyth> blindx, get Transmission
[06:49] <zyth> it's happy.
[06:49] <rolim> yes, i place one of cdrom and other dvd
[06:49] <DarkElf109> minerale: mkdir /mnt/hda1
[06:49] <rolim> this 2, open correct
[06:49] <DarkElf109> blindx: Bah. Then it's your own problem =P
[06:49] <DarkElf109> zyth: Frostwire? For bittorrent?
[06:49] <steel> darkelf109: how would i confine my ftp server to only my /home/ftp directory?
[06:49] <slaterock> i do have an ati 9000 igp card in my notebook
[06:49] <zyth> DarkElf109, n o
[06:49] <slaterock> and haven't successfully gotten fglrx working
[06:49] <zyth> DarkElf109, but it's a good java program ;)
[06:49] <blindx> now he's going to get "/dev/hda1 is busy or /mnt/hda1 is busy"
[06:49] <DarkElf109> Oh, java app
[06:49] <julien_c> my favorite bittorrent client: microtorrent (or mutorrent, same thing), but it only works on windows
[06:49] <zyth> Transmission is a good BT client.
[06:49] <zyth> I use in in OSX.
[06:50] <DarkElf109> steel: Sorry, I haven't configured FTP in a while...
[06:50] <rolim> c ficou curioso em hehe
[06:50] <blindx> i was hitting 700kb/s on this torrent though, it's simple, i like it. it doesn't take up a lot of resources.
[06:50] <blindx> on this client*
[06:50] <steel> ok
[06:50] <scanwinder> slaterock: are you getting a particular error?
[06:50] <rolim> bimberi?
[06:50] <DarkElf109> blindx: You could try bittornado...also a good one
[06:50] <zyth> Torrent speed depends mostly on the seed.
[06:50] <scanwinder> slaterock: the ati driver is really problematic
[06:50] <zyth> seeds.
[06:50] <rolim> q apelido em hehe
[06:50] <blindx> yeah, i had bittornado on windows..
[06:50] <LoMonteiro> hehehehe sim... eu quero saber tbm...
[06:51] <blindx> hm. worth a try
[06:51] <zyth> scanwinder, older cards like the ATI Rage don't need fglrx for 3D, right?
[06:51] <rolim> como fala ideia?
[06:51] <slaterock> i've never had fglrxinfo show ati
[06:51] <LoMonteiro> idea
[06:51] <rolim> s
[06:51] <bimberi> rolim: then it's probably a fault on that cd/dvd - i understand that dd is not very error tolerant
[06:51] <LoMonteiro> s um segundo
[06:51] <slaterock> it alwasy shows mesa
[06:51] <steel> how do i confine my proftpd server to only my /home/ftp folder?
[06:52] <zyth> slaterock, then you havent' got it installed properly.
[06:52] <scanwinder> zynth: isnt there a separate driver for ATI rage on the ati site?
[06:52] <LoMonteiro> rolim, Idea!
[06:52] <slaterock> it's an ati radeon mobility 9000 igp
[06:52] <rolim> but why i have one erro of burn with k3b and error with dd?
[06:52] <zyth> scanwinder, under linux I think it uses some open source thingy, I'm unsure tho
[06:52] <rolim> vlw
[06:52] <rolim> have u any idea?
[06:52] <slaterock> the odd thing is, glxgears runs fine
[06:52] <slaterock> it looks like opengl is working
[06:53] <rolim> o q ele quiz dizer com a fraze dele?
[06:53] <LoMonteiro> rolim,  o slaterock  ?
[06:53] <scanwinder> slaterock: if opengl is working, usually everything is fine with it
[06:53] <scanwinder> slaterock: whats it say if you run fglrxinfo
[06:53] <julien_c> i'm gonna buy a laptop this summer, and was wondering what to choose between ATi and nVidia (what's best with linux ?)
[06:53] <rolim> q??????????/
[06:53] <noiesmo> julien_c, nvidia
[06:53] <slaterock> right now, i just have the default ati driver that is installed with dapper
[06:53] <bimberi> rolim: i don't know sorry
[06:53] <slaterock> so no info on fglrxinfo
[06:53] <julien_c> noiesmo, ok thank you
[06:53] <scanwinder> julien_c: nvidea works much nicer in linux
[06:53] <slaterock> says no such command
[06:54] <orbin> julien_c: nvidia apparently
[06:54] <minerale> darkelf109: ok, i created the folder, I mounted that went fine... when I go and try to 'ls' it hangs forever
[06:54] <rolim> cheat :(
[06:54] <julien_c> hehe, i think i will go for nvidia then ;)
[06:54] <scanwinder> slaterock what about glxinfo?
[06:54] <slaterock> direct rendering: yes
[06:54] <slaterock> server glx vendor string: sgi
[06:55] <DarkElf109> minerale: That's...odd. I'm not sure what the problem is. Sorry =/
[06:55] <scanwinder> slaterock: what happens when you install the ati driver from the ati website?
[06:55] <slaterock> it never works
[06:55] <DarkElf109> Alright. I needa go to sleep. 'Night all
[06:55] <slaterock> it always shows up as mesa in fglrxinfo
[06:55] <orbin> slaterock: how are you trying to install it?
[06:56] <julien_c> good night DarkElf109
[06:56] <slaterock> i've created the deb packages, i've used hte installer
[06:56] <slaterock> blah blah blah blah blah
[06:56] <orbin> most important step is the module stuff
[06:56] <slaterock> ??
[06:56] <rolim> ok, bimberi, tanks for u help :D
[06:57] <steel> when i try to connect to my FTP it just says "recieving file names..." forever
[06:57] <scanwinder> slaterock: have you used module-assistant to compile the fglrx module?
[06:57] <orbin> slaterock: you used the wiki page right?
[06:57] <slaterock> yes...
[06:57] <slaterock> i believe so
[06:57] <noiesmo> slackern, have a look might be helpfull http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Problems_with_fglrx
[06:58] <bimberi> rolim: np :)
[06:58] <scanwinder> can someone help me get my tv tuner card working in dapper? i get sound but no video
[06:58] <eggzeck> scanwinder, #ubuntu+1
[06:58] <scanwinder> eggzeck: what?
[06:59] <Papageno> My monitor can run at 1600x1200 at 75 Hz, but the resolution app only lets me do 60 Hz for any res. How can I inform it of my monitors capabilities, or alternatively, how can I force 75 Hz?
[06:59] <scanwinder> eggzeck: oh right
[06:59] <eggzeck> this channel is for latest stable, ask dapper questions in #ubuntu+1
[06:59] <eggzeck> :)
[07:00] <monsterb> !qemu
[07:00] <ubotu> qemu is probably an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo or http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=200357&postcount=1
[07:01] <Madpilot> !tell Papageno about fixres
[07:01] <Madpilot> hi Beawolfe
[07:01] <slaterock> i don't understand why it doesn't work right off the bat
[07:01] <slaterock> it's dumb
[07:01] <eggzeck> !tell eggzeck about fixres
[07:01] <eggzeck> sounds interesting :P
[07:01] <slaterock> i should be able to install xorg-driver-fglrx
[07:01] <slaterock> no problems
[07:02] <slaterock> i don't fathom why it won't work
[07:02] <scanwinder> slaterock: thats never worked for me but supposedly it works better in dapper
[07:02] <Papageno> Madpilot, thanks, but I get a timeout error when trying to access the link ubotu gave me.
[07:03] <Madpilot> Papageno, it works here - try again in a bit?
[07:03] <Papageno> Madpilot, very well. Thanks again.

[07:04] <bleaked> if i am trying to play a dvd, and it plays very, very, slowly..almost choppy, and chokes my system, is it my hardware or perhaps could it be a software issue?
[07:04] <_jason> bleaked: have you enabled dma?
[07:04] <slaterock> how do you kill gdm?
[07:04] <_jason> slaterock: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop
[07:04] <wastrel> sudo killall gdm
[07:04] <slaterock> thanks jason
[07:04] <bleaked> _jason. hrm..i just slid this drive in a minute ago, so i suppose not.
[07:04] <wastrel> stop, kill ...
[07:05] <_jason> ubotu: tell bleaked about dma
[07:05] <_jason> stop is nicer
[07:05] <wastrel> yeah
[07:05] <slaterock> be back
[07:05] <slaterock> might need help in a bit
[07:05] <noiesmo> ubotu: tell noiesmo about dma
[07:06] <steel> anyone here know about proftpd?
[07:06] <wastrel> i just installed sharpmusique.
[07:06] <Lyctus> Can someone please tell me if there is a mozilla channel and if so where?
[07:07] <nemik> smo, are you on? i just found THE best solution for usenet on linux
[07:07] <steel> try.... /join #mozilla
[07:07] <Lyctus> k
[07:07] <tonyyarusso> Lyctus, There is, but they're really quiet in my experience.  (I've had better luck asking in -offtopic and waiting)
[07:07] <monsterb> !dma
[07:07] <wastrel> how do i set up firefox so it opens sharpmusique when i click a ITMS link?
[07:07] <Lyctus> :$ should have tried the obvious.... thanks steel
[07:08] <steel> hehe
[07:08] <wastrel> nemik:  please share
[07:08] <Lyctus> didn't even know if i was on the right server
[07:08] <smo> nemik: shoot
[07:08] <Beawolfe> Madpilot....Hi right back...sorry was reading wiki pages
[07:09] <linux-soldiers> i invit all the Linux users to my firts linux site http://www.linux-soldiers.org - for all the Linux newbies like me. the webpage is availible on spanish and frech too...
[07:09] <linux-soldiers> the webpage is under construction...
[07:09] <slaterock> alright, so i just installed xorg fglrx
[07:09] <nemik> ok, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=23434 follow those instructions. it build pan from source and the performance boost in indescribable
[07:09] <slaterock> can anyone trouble shoot with me?
[07:09] <slaterock> fglrxinfo shows mesa
[07:09] <nemik> wastrel, smo http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=23434 follow those instructions. it builds pan from source and the performance boost in indescribable
[07:10] <linux-soldiers> but you canfin videos that gona help you install sofware like Opera firefox vmware wine etc...
[07:10] <linux-soldiers> sorrry for my english.
[07:10] <linux-soldiers> (VIDEO) installation of opera browser 9 (Mepis 6)http://www.linux-soldiers.org/download.php?view.8
[07:11] <julien_c> yay ! now I'm writing this from ubuntu
[07:11] <linux-soldiers> (VIDEO) Installing Firefox 1.5.2 http://www.linux-soldiers.org/download.php?view.5
[07:11] <nemik> nice job julien_c, how do you like it?
[07:11] <slaterock> can anyone trouble shoot with me?
[07:12] <Lyctus> may as well pick your brains as well.....i've just programmed my own web server and it's meant to limit at 5 connections, so in firefox, i start 5 downloads and then the next request blocks...with mozilla i start 2 downloads and it blocks..? are the download in mozilla multithreaded or something?
[07:12] <julien_c> slaterock, it's pretty nice, i like the default gnome theme
[07:12] <slaterock> that was nemik
[07:12] <slaterock> :)
[07:12] <julien_c> now i'm gonna play around with the installed apps
[07:12] <slaterock> can anyone tell me what to look for to find out why mesa is still showing up when i do fglrxinfo?
[07:13] <nemik> :) go for it julien_c i remember being in your shoes about 1 yr ago, i now use ubuntu on all my machines and am in love with it
[07:13] <holycow> Lyctus, thats a question best server by #firefox on irc.mozilla.org
[07:13] <mikebot> is dapper out?
[07:13] <crimsun> no, not until 1 june
[07:13] <nemik> slaterock, it doesn't seem like many people know; try posting on the forum. it is quite active as well
[07:13] <slaterock> kk
[07:14] <slaterock> thanks nemik
[07:14] <nemik> np slaterock, good luck with you problem :)
[07:14] <zF> nemik, haven't adventured out to any of the more "advanced" linux flavors?
[07:14] <Lyctus> okay holycow I've asked the mozilla channel suggested before but not response so far..
[07:14] <mikebot> crimsun, thanks
[07:14] <julien_c> i'm very impressed, i thought i would have hardware problems, but everything seems to work
[07:15] <bleaked> _jason. still very choppy and runs like crap..even with dma
[07:15] <julien_c> i can even put a higher screen resolution than under windows
[07:15] <nemik> zF, before ubuntu i tried a stage 2 gentoo install. it raped me and scared me from linux fo a year. i use redhat at work though but absolutely love ubuntu and see no reason to switch
[07:15] <julien_c> lol nemik
[07:15] <noiesmo> slaterock, this is gentoo but has mesa problem info http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/gentoo-linux-help/54709-ati-direct-render-problem.html
[07:15] <tonyyarusso> What?  Gentoo scare off a new user?  Never...
[07:16] <julien_c> i tried installing slackware first but failed miserably
[07:16] <nemik> i think their forums and IRC channels actually scared me even more than the OS itself! :D
[07:16] <neiras> Hullo, I have an issue with my laptop's CDRW drive. dmesg spits out "hdc: drive_cmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }" when I stick a CD in, and it refuses to eject unless I repeatedly press the eject button. Drive works great under WIndows
[07:16] <neiras> Anyone have any ideas?
[07:17] <nemik> i only even gave ubuntu a shot because its african, i used to live in SA like mark and liked the philosophe behind it
[07:17] <vook> anyone know how I would go about making my wireless lan wlan0 instead of eth1, as it is now?
[07:17] <neiras> vook, look into the ifrename command
[07:18] <nemik> smo, wastrel, what do you guys think of the new pan?
[07:18] <vook> neiras, thanks
[07:18] <neiras> vook, also look at /etc/iftab
[07:18] <julien_c> is there a keyboard shortcut for quickly switching workspace under gnome please ?
[07:18] <nemik> julien_c: ctrl + alt + <--- or --->
[07:18] <julien_c> hehe thanks it works
[07:19] <maskd> i change mine to alt + s and alt + d so its right next to alt + tab :)
[07:19] <nemik> you should see it with xgl and compriz...have it on my dapper box. that is so freaking cool!
[07:19] <wastrel> busy with itunes , haven't looked yet
[07:20] <julien_c> omg... i just tried the "Robots" game installed by default... now i know my sound is working (and my parents know it too lol...)
[07:20] <IceTox> How do I rename a folder using terminal ?
[07:20] <maskd> mv
[07:20] <IceTox> thanks
[07:20] <julien_c> IceTox: mv oldname newname
[07:21] <Beawolfe> Madpilot.......question if possible about what we were talking about last night
[07:22] <blindx> Is there another VNC viewer besides the built in one? It doesn't want to connect. I give it an address, and it asks me for the address again, I type it in, asks again, over and over..
[07:22] <imbrandon> type the address :1 or :0
[07:23] <blindx> same issue, imbrandon.
[07:23] <franck> Hi all!
[07:23] <blindx> Actually.. when i hit enter with the numpad, it asks for a new addresss... when i hit "return" it freezes.
[07:23] <imbrandon> you sure vnc is running on the server?
[07:24] <blindx> hi franck
[07:24] <blindx> imbrandon, positive
[07:24] <imbrandon> hmm not sure i just know the :0 is a common mistake
[07:24] <franck> Where can I find all the packages that ubuntu supports? does it have mapserver?
[07:24] <monsterb> IceTox "mv command" also renames:  example  mv oldname newname
[07:24] <steel>  how do i view my groups?
[07:24] <imbrandon> try runnig it from a consoel to get any errors
[07:24] <steel> nvm
[07:24] <imbrandon> cat /etc/groups
[07:25] <blindx> i did that. it doesn't give me any errors
[07:25] <IceTox> monsterb, got it.. thanks :-)
[07:25] <michael117> I want to make a nice eye candy desktop and have a plan for a background with certain sections being clickable to launch applications. How could I accomplish making these sections of the image clickable as launchers?
[07:25] <IceTox> thanks maskd and julien_c
[07:25] <bimberi> franck: you can search/browse packages via http://packages.ubuntu.com
[07:25] <franck> bimberi: thx
[07:25] <imbrandon> hmm damm i'm at a loss then blindx you might try tsclient ( its in the repos ) but i think thats just another front end for vncviewer
[07:25] <bimberi> franck: yw :)
[07:25] <eggzeck> oops, I ruined my xorg.conf file lol
[07:26] <blindx> you backed it up, right?
[07:26] <bimberi> !find mapserver
[07:26] <eggzeck> yes. :) (thank God)
[07:26] <ubotu> Ubuntu Package Listing of 'mapserver' (3 shown): cgi-mapserver ;; mapserver-bin ;; mapserver-doc.
[07:26] <bimberi> franck: or use ubotu ^^^^^ :)
[07:26] <wastrel> how can i set up firefox to open up itms links with sharpmusique?  is this possible?
[07:27] <franck> bimberi: I don't have ubuntu
[07:27] <franck> oh, sorry
[07:27] <linux_galore> michael117: in kde they use superkaramba -> http://www.kde-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=38&PHPSESSID=9670dca5e84d4b76aed617922c5207b4
[07:28] <hyphenated> wastrel: you'd need a firefox plugin/extension to bind the protocol (itms://) to an app, I imagine
[07:28] <franck> bimberi: I don't see the php extension of mapserver...
[07:29] <franck> now I see it ;)
[07:29] <wastrel> rgr
[07:30] <michael117> linux_galore: any similar gtk solutions? Could I run superkaramba in gnome?
[07:30] <linux_galore> michael117: I heard there was a gnome project that was doing the same, dont know the name though always poke around www.gnome-look.org
[07:30] <franck> bimberi: on http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/web/php4-mapscript what is [universe]  ?
[07:31] <nemik> goodnight everyone!
[07:32] <shedi> universe is a repository category
[07:32] <franck> shedi: what does it mean?
[07:33] <shedi> it means that in the order to have access to from apt, you need to enable it by adding it to your source.list
[07:33] <LoMonteiro> My gedit is slow...
[07:33] <shedi> LoMonteiro, gedit is slow
[07:33] <michael117> linux_galore: Hmm... maybe I'll just kind of work around it by copy that section of the image and creating icons to match and place accordingly. Is it possible to lock icons into place on the desktop?
[07:34] <LoMonteiro> shedi, and evrything that use the terminal is slow.. :/
[07:34] <shedi> franck, if you take a look at /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:34] <franck> shedi: is it like a contrib category which is not part of the main distribution?
[07:34] <wastrel> bah.
[07:34] <wastrel> night
[07:35] <shedi> yes, exactly
[07:35] <bimberi> !tell franck about components
[07:35] <LoMonteiro> shedi, please, help-me
[07:35] <linux_galore> michael117: here we go -> http://www.pycage.de/software_gdesklets.html
[07:35] <shedi> franck, it's a category of unsupported software
[07:35] <sharp> is there a tool i can apt-get to disable certain services that start up? I dont need apache or Appletalk.
[07:35] <shedi> LoMonteiro, what is your problem?
[07:35] <bimberi> community supported :)
[07:36] <shedi> sharp, rcconf
[07:36] <shedi> yes yes
[07:36] <shedi> :)
[07:36] <franck> shedi: I don't have ubuntu... In fact now that I look at all the packages, I can be specific. I have made 2 rpm for mandriva tikiwiki and tikiwiki-mapdata and I'd like to encourage the ubuntu community to add them in the package list of ubuntu
[07:36] <sharp> okies.. let me try that.
[07:36] <LoMonteiro> shedi, when I write gedit .... in 5 minutes I receive the answer :/
[07:36] <linux_galore> michael117: better link is http://www.gdesklets.org/
[07:37] <franck> these 2 packages do not need to be compiles but just packaged correctly
[07:37] <shedi> LoMonteiro, slow computer ?
[07:37] <LoMonteiro> shedi, No...
[07:37] <shedi> :)
[07:37] <shedi> what about other programs
[07:38] <LoMonteiro> shedi, before 10 minutes, it's ok.
[07:38] <ramza3> question, anybody know the popular ubuntu wallpaper that has an brunette/purple anime girl with sandals?
[07:38] <bimberi> franck: getting new packages into ubuntu is in the realm of the MOTUs - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU
[07:38] <LoMonteiro> 'System' -> Adm -> Printers - is slow too...
[07:38] <ramza3> well, wtf does "Hdbri yd mchdnd" mean?
[07:38] <shedi> LoMonteiro, I really have no idea
[07:39] <linux_galore> LoMonteiro: sounds like a resource problem
[07:39] <LoMonteiro> shedi, hm..
[07:39] <LoMonteiro> linux-soldiers, what ?
[07:40] <linux_galore> lack of resources = slow as hell
[07:40] <LoMonteiro> I finished install codecs and all slow.
[07:40] <shedi> LoMonteiro, you could try running top, to see if there is something eating up your cpu
[07:40] <shedi> LoMonteiro,  top is a program you run in the terminal
[07:40] <eggzeck> yay fixed.
[07:41] <LoMonteiro> shedi, and how I know ?
[07:41] <intelikey> hmmmm here's one for ya.  Cannot find /lib/modules/initramfs-2.6.15-20-386
[07:41] <linux_galore> getting a new user to run top is just nuts, run gtop or ksysguard
[07:41] <intelikey> dpkg: error processing udev (--configure):
[07:41] <shedi> yes yes
[07:41] <intelikey> man ps
[07:41] <LoMonteiro> shedi, i don't understand
[07:42] <linux_galore> intelikey: if it cant find it then it not here simple
[07:42] <linux_galore> ls lib/modules/init*
[07:42] <intelikey> linux_galore sure it's simple.   so why wasn't it installed ?
[07:42] <linux_galore> ls /lib/modules/init*
[07:43] <linux_galore> intelikey: maybe its an extra package
[07:43] <linux_galore> intelikey: or the driver on question is a binary blob so isnt there by default
[07:44] <intelikey> linux_galore required by udev,,,, not likely
[07:44] <LoMonteiro> grr..
[07:44] <julien_c> uh oh... my root password wasn't set up correctly, is there a way to change it without reinstalling everything ?
[07:45] <shedi> julien_c,  sudo passwd root
[07:45] <linux_galore> intelikey: sometimes things are totally broken so they dont install it
[07:45] <iceman> Anyone know if the Openstep os is available for download anyplace
[07:45] <xerophyte>  if i have something like in the fstab =>  /var/run/saslauthd    /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd    none    rw,bind    0 0  how can i mount it without rebooting the server
[07:45] <julien_c> shedi: wow thanks
[07:45] <intelikey> hehhe linux_galore yeah  pre-release crap is often borked.....   :)
[07:46] <ubuntu> why does find / -name blabla doesnt give results in the live cd ?
[07:46] <pb> hi folks, there seems to be an issue with nautilus here.. you see, after opening a certain folder (with, say, 24.4 gb size), it freezes abrubtly, and I hate to restart nautilus... i'm on breezy btw, and ive never had this problem on hoary -_- any pointer please?
[07:46] <intelikey> ubuntu if it doesn't fint and no error  then to output.
[07:46] <ubuntu> the "search files" gives the file system properlply
[07:46] <linux_galore> intelikey: I use shinny new kernels often and between releases Linus or one of the lieutenants will push a driver of the tree as its too unstable
[07:47] <ketsugi> Ugh, is it normal for each Gnome panel applet to use up about 15+ mb of memory?
[07:47] <ubuntu> yes intelikey then to output ?
[07:47] <intelikey> ubuntu ?
[07:48] <noiesmo> xerophyte, you could try sudo mount -t none /var/run/saslauthd /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd
[07:48] <pb> oh, and btw, I can access the files normally through the terminal -- its just a nautilus thing... :(
[07:48] <roaet> Hello.
[07:48] <intelikey> ubuntu if find / -name blabla ;then echo found ;else echo 'nothing there' ;fi
[07:48] <roaet> how do I get the 'taskbar' to stop stacking?

[07:49] <pb> i was on hoary one week ago
[07:50] <linux_galore> pb: ok and you have updated
[07:50] <ubuntu> i mean that warning
[07:50] <linux_galore> pb: have you done the normal updates yet
[07:50] <pb> actually i did a fresh installation, and i updated everything required
[07:50] <linux_galore> pb: ok, then its a bug
[07:50] <intelikey> ubuntu means that searching through the ram is not by default a good idea anyway.    what are you looking for, and why?    i'll see if i can't help you locate it.

[07:56] <cafuego> ubuntu: it should have been installed.
[07:56] <ubuntu> lovelyx cuz it means humanity to others
[07:56] <ericmoritz\0> I'm having a strange issue with my ipod nano when ejecting
[07:56] <cafuego> lovelyx: Nice well-integrated desktop, easy to setup & admin.
[07:56] <intelikey> lovelyx it is 'imperfect'   don't bother with it.
[07:57] <ubuntu> xD
[07:57] <ubuntu> hehehehehe
[07:57] <ericmoritz\0> if I eject from the desktop I get, invalid parameter error but if I use pumount it fine
[07:57] <ubuntu> i got my 45 cds pack yesterday
[07:57] <ubuntu> since then i have been sitting with the cds
[07:57] <ubuntu> hehehehe
[07:57] <lovelyx> cafuego, how easy would it be for a windows user?
[07:57] <cafuego> ericmoritz\0: Are you on Ubuntu 5.10?
[07:57] <ericmoritz\0> is there anyway to make gnome use pumount instead of the eject command?
[07:57] <cafuego> lovelyx: Depends on the windows users.
[07:57] <ericmoritz\0> cafuego, yeah breezy
[07:58] <ubuntu> 64 bit version seems good
[07:58] <linux_galore> intelikey: grab a live cd and play with it, no damage done and you get to play with Linux
[07:58] <ubuntu> mucha lucha
[07:58] <cafuego> ericmoritz\0: Known bug then, it will be fixed in the next release.
[07:58] <ubuntu> intelikey knows enough of ubuntu and live cds
[07:58] <ubuntu> :D
[07:58] <lovelyx> cafuego: i mean, if I just want to listen to music, surf the internet, and make docs?
[07:58] <ericmoritz\0> cafuego, hurry, that's a crappy answer :)
[07:58] <ubuntu> yes u can
[07:58] <ericmoritz\0> whens dapper scheduled?
[07:59] <Madpilot> ericmoritz\0, June 1st
[07:59] <ketsugi> What's a good image viewer that can open zip/rars directly for viewing comics/manga?
[07:59] <cafuego> lovelyx: It does all that by default :-)
[07:59] <cafuego> lovelyx: it comes with a few music players, firefox and openOffice.
[07:59] <ubuntu> roger that
[07:59] <lovelyx> cafuego: how it tands above other distros?
[07:59] <intelikey> >  dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[07:59] <intelikey> > Errors were encountered while processing:
[07:59] <lovelyx> stands*
[07:59] <intelikey> >  udev hal xfce4-session xfce4
[07:59] <linux_galore> ketsugi: depends on your default desktop, there are a few comic viewer apps
[07:59] <monsterb> gDesklets is pretty good.
[08:00] <intelikey> so is it really really bad that udev is not installed ?
[08:00] <linux_galore> ketsugi: goto www.freshmeat.net  and search on comics
[08:00] <cafuego> lovelyx: it's got 'apt-get', which others don't. (easy way of adding software)
[08:00] <ubuntu> and above all ubuntu has perl and python xD i cant live without them
[08:00] <ubuntu> :D
[08:00] <ubuntu> :DDDD
[08:00] <Shrike> Anyone know if there is anything like "system-config-display" on Fedora for Ubuntu? Something I could use for quickly changing modes when I plug my laptop to a monitor
[08:00] <ketsugi> thanks
[08:01] <scanwinder> in vlc, is there a way to make the dvd playing bit default to /media/cdrom0? because dvd:// dosent seem to work
[08:01] <lovelyx> cafuego: ok lot of thanks!
[08:01] <linux_galore> Shrike: you mean like  ctrl alt +
[08:01] <linux_galore> Shrike: or ctrl alt -
[08:02] <ubuntu> ok i go install the 64 bit edition asap
[08:02] <ubuntu> cya guys
[08:02] <ubuntu> thanks for help
[08:02] <lovelyx> cafuego: but debian also uses apt-get
[08:02] <intelikey> ubuntu   ubuntu can live without  perl and python.    it's hard to get it to.   but i have a box right beside me that has no perl or python on it and "was" ubuntu hoary,  i don't think ubuntu would claim it now  though   :)
[08:02] <Shrike> linux_galore: Uh, do I?
[08:02] <ubuntu> :D
[08:02] <cafuego> lovelyx: Yes, but for a *desktop* I fiond Ubuntu to be easier, better integrated and more up to date.
[08:02] <linux_galore> Shrike: ctrl alt +/-  will change the resolution
[08:03] <cafuego> lovelyx: I still use Debian on my server systems.
[08:03] <lovelyx> ah ok
[08:03] <Shrike> linux_galore: What about refresh rate?
[08:03] <ubuntu> but intelikey u should asap destroy that box without perl and python xD
[08:03] <Shrike> It stays the same if the graph card can handle it?
[08:03] <ubuntu> no perl no python == no linux
[08:03] <linux_galore> Shrike: well I have an extra app installed on my taskbar that does both
[08:03] <Shrike> linux_galore: Which one is that?
[08:04] <joedj> is there any software for end-to-end VCD creation? my input media is stuff like .avi and .rm
[08:04] <intelikey> linux_galore atcually    ctrl alt +/-   don't change the rez,  it just  zooms in or out.    the rest of the desktop is scrollable.
[08:04] <linux_galore> Shrike: dont laugh its called "resize and rotate"
[08:04] <Shrike> linux_galore: You have an URL for it or is it availagle through Synaptic?
[08:05] <linux_galore> Shrike: I dont think its on synaptic trying to remember were I got it
[08:05] <Shrike> Lemme google then
[08:05] <lovelyx> cafuego, ok thank you very much
[08:05] <lovelyx> bye
[08:06] <linux_galore> Shrike: its created by a SuSE programmer for kde
