[16:44] <stf> Has anyone here ever created an usplash or splashy theme? I can't get either of those to work.
[16:44] <xilvr> hi, i've got an important question: I use the TimesNewRoman .ttf font on my ubuntu system but open office doesn't display the euro sign.. All other fonts do! do you know what's wrong?
[16:44] <th0r> tvon you should be able to kill the processes, then I would suggest downloading chkrootkit
[16:44] <abrahm> #ubuntu-bugs
[16:44] <tvon> i did kill the processes, they restart immediatly
[16:45] <th0r> tvon yeah...then chkrootkit would be your next step I think.

[16:45] <orlandoj> tvon: ircd is an service. an IRC server
[16:46] <dasprid> Very nice: Since yesterday, Aurora GTK Engine 1.4 is out. Now the Evolution Calendar Crash is finally fixed.
[16:46] <tvon> th0r: ircd is not in init.d
[16:46] <tvon> how do i get chkrootkit, apt-get?
[16:46] <xilvr> sry, i already read the pager
[16:46] <xilvr> page*
[16:46] <xilvr> there's no solution for this problem
[16:46] <JonathanElli1> Thanks to all who helped with the Multisync plugins. I think Ive got it now
[16:46] <LjL> tvon: when people don't specify, it usually means you get it from APT.
[16:46] <israel___> xilvr: do you have a special key for the euro sign?
[16:46] <xilvr> i have to set the language to "de_DE@euro" but i don't know how to do that
[16:47] <th0r> tvon I think it is in synaptic...if not google chkrootkit for the homepage and compile it...it usually goes pretty smooth. I am assuming you are not running an IRC server, right?
[16:47] <xilvr> it's ALTGR+E

[16:47] <z9999> zoom: Is there a standard means of creating, saving and activating a set of rules to be applied when booting?
[16:47] <xilvr> and the other fonts work, isreael
[16:47] <Pici> tvon: I also suggest taking a look at your iptables/firestarter rules and restricting access ASAP.
[16:48] <th0r> LjL rkhunter...will have to check that one out....thanks
[16:49] <tvon> pici: alright..
[16:50] <tvon> pici: yea i have no rules set up in iptables
[16:50] <[G]oran> livecd ubuntu v7.10 i386 32bit fail to boot on k8m890 based vga. Solution for this?

[16:50] <lfourrat> allo
[16:50] <th0r> tvon what services do you run (telnet, ssh, http, smtp, ftp?)
[16:50] <zoom> z9999, if you whant your rules at start up you have to set your script in etc/init.d
[16:50] <tvon> th0r ssh, http, sftp
[16:50] <hottium> [g]oran: what error did it give?
[16:51] <zoom> z9999, search help about init.d and run level
[16:51] <[G]oran> hottium it just goes black
[16:51] <[G]oran> after a while..
[16:51] <Beererde> does someone know where firefox saves its passwords? i forgot one but firefox has it
[16:51] <th0r> tvon then using iptables (or firestarter) block everything except port 22 and 80. I would also suggest you consider moving ssh off port 22...since I did that I have had NO illegit access attempts
[16:52] <tvon> th0r: alright good idea
[16:52] <hottium> beererde: you can view it in preferences -> security -> show saved passwords
[16:52] <[G]oran> geforce 6100 or k8m890. what should I prefer when it comes to ubuntu?
[16:52] <Boglizk> I'm trying to select a font in Gnome-Terminal, but i cant find it. Any ideas?
[16:52] <z9999> zoom: I'll look into that and thanks.
[16:54] <tvon> th0r: so like this iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
[16:54] <israel___> xilvr,  open a terminal and try:     LANG="de_DE@euro" & oowriter &     maybe it'd work

[16:55] <zoom> i am working on it also :)
[16:56] <xilvr> thank you, but it doesn't work :(
[16:56] <tvon> what would be the command to block all ports BUT 22 and 80
[16:56] <mattgyver> Does anyone have any experience setting up a bluetooth connections to hotsync a pda?
[16:56] <israel___> xilvr, sorry, I don't know what else to do
[16:56] <th0r> tvon I think so...but I am not an iptables expert
[16:56] <Pici> tvon: if you have a gui on that, you can just use Firestarter and forget the exact iptables syntax.
[16:57] <tvon> pici: no gui
[16:57] <th0r> tvon I think you need a default REJECT also
[16:57] <th0r> tvon sort of like 'throw away everything...then make these exceptions'
[16:58] <Pici> tvon: #iptables exists if you need more help :)
[16:58] <tvon> ooh thanks.
[16:58] <th0r> tvon Pici is right...iptables is a better option
[16:58] <zoom> tvon see my config http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52023/
[16:58] <zoom> it may help you
[16:58] <th0r> tvon sorry....Firestarter is the better option!

[17:08] <kiko_> but thanks
[17:08] <voraistos> which results in my wifi not working
[17:08] <QuantumKenny> I have found several utilities that work for capturing images/pictures, so I know the camera works
[17:09] <xand_> kiko_: np
[17:09] <voraistos> the proprietary driver thingy -firware- should be loaded though
[17:09] <voraistos> what i want to know is what driver is the ubuntu kernel compiled for ?
[17:10] <kiko_> np?
[17:10] <kiko_> what is?
[17:10] <bazhang> no problemo
[17:10] <kiko_> all right
[17:10] <kiko_> bye
[17:10] <voraistos> v2.6.22 it is, i cant remember if it uses the old driver or the new one
[17:10] <tvon> hmm why would apache2 and httpd both be running?
[17:11] <voraistos> httpd might just open the right ports, while apache2 is an instance of the server
[17:11]  * voraistos thinks
[17:11] <ikonia> tvon: the only way that happens is if they are on two different ports
[17:11] <Pici> tvon: check out `netstat -tanp` perhaps
[17:12] <voraistos> is there a channel for kernel developers or some documentation on the binary ubuntu kernel ?
[17:12] <tvon> well i've never seen it, theres no entry in init.d and now with this security breach its there
[17:12] <Pici> voraistos: #ubuntu-kernel, but its not really a support channel so be nice and patient.
[17:12] <stf> Anyone familiar with usplash?
[17:12] <tvon> it says /usr/sbin/httpd
[17:12] <tvon> yet its not there either

[17:15] <stf> Hi. I installed libusplash-dev. I make installed the provided example theme "eft-theme". Then I ran the following commands:

[17:17] <stf> Hi. I installed libusplash-dev. I make installed the provided example theme "eft-theme". Then I ran the following commands: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52025/ ; Then I rebooted with "quiet splash vga=791" and the boot process was a black screen. What did I forget to do?
[17:17] <Arelis> Oli``, Yes. I want to still be able to put files onto it and transfer it to windows computers.
[17:17] <nik_> hello
[17:18] <genii> Djerkaf: I just returned now. Did you have any luck with the different options or does it always freeze after beginning the partitioning still?
[17:18] <Oli``> stf: do you need to run a initramfs-update ?
[17:18] <pkundu> menlios i belive you can try to do a dd
[17:18] <Duke_Fluke> Arelis: slax uses fat filesystem so this would be possible
[17:18] <manifest_-energy> anyone care to input on the printer issue?
[17:18] <Djerkaf> genii: It freezes every time.
[17:18] <Arelis> Duke_Fluke, Is Slax a good distro?
[17:18] <white_eagle> I can't install skype, i recently uninstalled it and when  I downloaded the .deb package for skype and when I try to install it, it shows up something like broken pipe
[17:18] <menllyos> pike_ : what program can i use for this moving then?
[17:18] <Oli``> Arelis: slackware is a lot more hardcore. Lots more configuring, no apt, no repos =(
[17:18] <stf> Oli``: A tutorial mentioned, I don't really know what it does.
[17:18] <stf> mentioned it*
[17:19] <tvon> haha now that i set rules on iptables, when i sudo i get sudo: unable to lookup myhost.com via gethostbyname()
[17:19] <Djerkaf> genii: And only once the name and size of the drive was shown on the... "verify partition changes" screen
[17:19] <Duke_Fluke> Arelis: it is a good pendrive distro
[17:19] <pkundu> menllyos, try to boot from a live cd and do a dd
[17:19] <menllyos> dd ?
[17:19] <Duke_Fluke> manifest_-energy, what is your prob?
[17:19] <pike_> menllyos: dd or cp if you use right switches but remember /etc/fstab and i dunno else will need to be edited
[17:19] <Oli``> stf: it updates the boot image... I imagine it's pretty essential to changing the usplash
[17:19] <Djerkaf> genii: (you will have to excuse my choise of words, I have the Swedish installer)
[17:19] <nik_> ubuntu 8 has problem with java
[17:19] <tvon> how can i fix this, which port does this use:  'sudo: unable to lookup myhost.com via gethostbyname()'
[17:19] <wian> hi, everyone here, who can help me with my feisty graph card driver?
[17:19] <pkundu> pike_, will cp work in this case
[17:20] <Oli``> wian: it depends what your problem is... ask away...
[17:20] <stf> Oli``: actually you meant `update-initramfs -u` and not `update-initramfs`, right?
[17:20] <Pici> tvon: it means your hostname changed and now sudo is broken.
[17:20] <Pici> !hostname | tvon
[17:20] <ubotu> tvon: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname  and /etc/hosts . WARNING!

[17:20] <Arelis> Oli``, Can't i install Ubuntu onto my usb stick?
[17:20] <Oli``> stf: erm, not sure what the difference is
[17:20] <genii> Djerkaf: I found a page with the most commonly used ubuntu kernel options here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions       My best guess at this time is it looks like something related to either interrupts or the hard drive controller
[17:21] <Oli``> Arelis: yes, I gave you a link
[17:21] <tvon> pici: id idnt change my hostname, just set up rules in iptables

[17:21] <Arelis> Oli``, I saw it... but, i don't know if that is the right guide to follow. On that site, there are like 20 guides for installing Ubuntu on an USB stick. It's really confusing. And i still want to be able to transfer files
[17:22] <tvon> pici: is it possible i blocked an internal port sudo uses?
[17:22] <Oli``> Arelis: they're just for the different versions, though they're all essentially the same
[17:22] <Pici> tvon: No.
[17:23] <Arelis> Oli``, But those guides won't let me transfer files. I have to delete the current partition and create a new one for that.
[17:23] <tvon> pici: hmm then i wonder why it started right after i set up iptables rules
[17:23] <Yanch0> how to restart apache2 on ubuntu please?
[17:23] <Arelis> Oli``, I mean, for installing Ubuntu
[17:23] <Pici> tvon: unless this is a outward facing server and you perhaps removed the dns port so it can't lookup now.

[17:27] <wian> GorNuru, you can use command "whereis libsmime3.so"

[17:38] <Neyuth> hi!
[17:38] <Neyuth> someone knows how i can remove the first three characters from a filename whit a command?
[17:39] <Neyuth> *with
[17:39] <CheeseGardener> bruenig here is the new error log http://pastebin.com/ma7ad1e8
[17:40] <bruenig> Neyuth, are you trying to do this with a bunch of files at once?
[17:40] <B-rabbit> hi all
[17:40] <bruenig> CheeseGardener, there is no error, it is successful
[17:40] <Neyuth> bruenig yes! i want to make it to a directory
[17:40] <bruenig> Neyuth, your answer is confusing
[17:40] <CheeseGardener> bruenig it isn't showing up for some reason in my plugin's list
[17:41] <bruenig> Neyuth, do you have a bunch of files sitting in a directory that you want to strip the first three characters from or not?
[17:41] <Neyuth> ii have a directory with a lot of files
[17:41] <Djerkaf> genii: After about one minute (with oldboot), there came an error message on top of the blue screen saying "Input/output error during write on /dev/sda ERROR!!!
[17:41] <genii> Djerkaf: When you do alt-f4 after the blue screen freeze do you see any text on the screen? It may be helpful. Also if keyboard unresonsive, are all 3 capslock scrolllock and numlock keys flashing?
[17:41] <Neyuth> and i want to delete the frist three character of the file name
[17:42] <bruenig> Neyuth, ok cd into the directory and run: for file in *; do mv "$file" "$(echo $file | sed 's/^...//g')"; done
[17:42] <punchsideiron> CheeseGardener, did you forget to do "make install"?
[17:42] <bruenig> that is a stupid way to do that but for a one timer, it will do
[17:42] <genii> Djerkaf:Since the system returned with an error msg I know the 3 lights are not blinking
[17:42] <CheeseGardener> punchsideiron no, look http://pastebin.com/ma7ad1e8
[17:43] <Djerkaf> genii: That is correct, no lights are blinking.
[17:43] <CheeseGardener> bruenig maybe it installed to the wrong directory?
[17:43] <Djerkaf> genii: when I push alt+F4 it goes black and I see some log
[17:43] <analizishmael> hi
[17:43] <bruenig> CheeseGardener, it installs wherever you tell it to install, you told it to install in /usr/local/
[17:43] <genii> Djerkaf: Good, that is what is supposed to happen. The last line or 2 what says it?
[17:43] <Ongaku> ok, odd, I haven´t had this thing on for a day and it says something is wrong with my gnome-settings-daemon....
[17:43] <CheeseGardener> bruenig is that where pidgin plugins go?
[17:44] <Djerkaf> genii: "Buffer I/O error on device sda, logical block " and a number. It says so repeatedly.

[17:45] <bruenig> CheeseGardener, I don't know, might want to find that out though
[17:45] <genii> Djerkaf: In your bios also make sure it is set to autodetect all hd
[17:45] <Neyuth> bruenig, it works!!!
[17:45] <Neyuth> perfect!!!
[17:45] <JamoSmith> pike_: I don't know what they should be
[17:45] <Neyuth> thakyou very much
[17:45] <bruenig> tomd123, well I don't know what the feature in itunes is, but there is a way to play songs on a network with things like "mpd"
[17:45] <Ongaku> Unable to start the Gnome settings manager ¨gnome-settings-daemon"
[17:45] <CheeseGardener> bruenig where can I find out?
[17:46] <bruenig> CheeseGardener, ask other people, google, etc.
[17:46] <Pici> !itunes | tomd123
[17:46] <ubotu> tomd123: itunes is not available on Linux, but there are many audio player alternatives (see !players). For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee
[17:46] <tomd123> ubotu, thankyou, pici, thank you too ;P
[17:46] <Ongaku> everything works except my windows colours and fonts are default... ?? lol
[17:47] <Djerkaf> genii: That is confirmed. ;D  Now let's see what happens...
[17:47] <CheeseGardener> does anyone know the pidgin plugin directory?
[17:47] <JamoSmith> pike_: this is enforced by the .INF I got off the install disc?
[17:47] <Hammy> Is there any easy way that I can get different backgrounds on each of my panels?
[17:48] <Ongaku> Unable to start the settings manager 'gnome-settings-daemon'.
[17:48] <Ongaku> Without the GNOME settings manager running, some preferences may not take effect. This could indicate a problem with Bonobo, or a non-GNOME (e.g. KDE) settings manager may already be active and conflicting with the GNOME settings manager.

[17:51] <bruenig> Erix, you can do without for sure
[17:51] <Ongaku> ok Juhaz

[18:07] <tifine> Pici:  from the website http://en.opensuse.org/Released_Version ?
[18:08] <Arelis> BulBulRed, I've experienced first-hand. When i had a dual-boot, and removed windows to try a "pure" ubuntu, i couldn't install Windows so easily anymore.
[18:08] <Pici> tifine: This is the Ubuntu support channel, perhaps you should be asking in #opensuse.
[18:08] <thedoor> i got thi message when in trying to turn on the dma :  HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
[18:08] <Arelis> BulBulRed, That is a problem amongst the problems
[18:08] <thedoor> somebody can helpme?
[18:08] <tifine> Pici: but it releated to the pc not with the ubuntu or opensuse ?
[18:09] <Duke_Fluke> thedoor: did   you use sudo?
[18:09] <BulBulRed> when you install ubuntu and windows
[18:09] <BulBulRed> and you format the windows partition
[18:09] <XiXaQ> hasn't anyone ever seen a flash movie in opera in ubuntu?
[18:09] <Pici> tifine: This channel is only for Ubuntu support. Not general PC support, not Opensuse support.
[18:09] <thedoor> Duke_Fluke, yeah, im use the sudo =/
[18:09] <BulBulRed> you still keep that partition, you can just as easy reinstall windows on that
[18:09] <mwe> LjL, will the gpg key change, if you change country mirror?
[18:09] <GoreNuru> do someone know free alternative to html2image?
[18:09] <LjL> mwe: no
[18:09] <mwe> thanks
[18:09] <Tyczek> Do you use nicotine? The ports I have to unclock (2234,2239) are tcp or udp?
[18:10] <Arelis> BulBulRed, So if i remove Windows from it, but still keep the partition, i can install it again? So i will have no issues with reinstalling?
[18:10] <Hammy> Well, if you're going to dual boot, I've found it's easier to install windows and then ubuntu, as grub will get set up for you automatically
[18:10] <Duke_Fluke> thedoor: are you using the "hdparm -d" command?
[18:10] <Hammy> just get all your partitions set with gparted first
[18:10] <Ongaku_> lol yeah....wow...it´s fixed...just had to add it to sessions...don´t understand why it disappeared in the first place lol
[18:10] <BulBulRed> like Hammy says
[18:10] <thedoor> Duke_Fluke, yeah sudo hdparm -d /dev/hda
[18:10] <thedoor> Duke_Fluke, yeah sudo hdparm -d 1 /dev/hda
[18:10] <Duke_Fluke> thedoor, like "hdparm -d /dev/hdc"
[18:10] <Ongaku_> thank you pike_ :)
[18:10] <Duke_Fluke> thedoor, :) ok hmm
[18:10] <Arelis> Hammy, I'd like a /home partition, because it makes it easier to backup, and if Ubuntu breaks my files don't get lost.
[18:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: If you plan on dual booting you might consider making a backup of the current mbr..
[18:11] <BulBulRed> i'm on windos right now , but after my examens i'm formatting my hard disks and just going to keep UBUNTU
[18:11] <Hammy> you can set up the home partition easier during the install than to change it later
[18:11] <BulBulRed> i'm a changed man
[18:11] <BulBulRed> :p
[18:11] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, I have no problem with using GRUB to boot into Windows when only windows is installed
[18:11] <shaft0r> Hammy; so you're saying put windows on a front partition and then linux on the back half? I mean... from a visual stand point
[18:11] <Duke_Fluke> thedoor, so you want to enable dma on your hard drive?
[18:11] <Jeruvy> hmm, I cannot 'mount' a usb disk for some reason.  Any idea's ?
[18:11] <zobban> is there any scanner for mysl
[18:12] <Hammy> Well, it doesn't really matter, the thing is, if ubuntu sees that windows is already installed when you do the ubuntu installation, it'll configure grub for you so windows is in there already, which makes it a little easier
[18:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: If you remove ubuntu it will remove /boot/grub/menu.lst and you will have a problem getting into windows.
[18:12] <Hammy> then, what I did was went back and made windows the default boot option in grub
[18:12] <thedoor> Duke_Fluke, yeah =/
[18:12] <Djerkaf> genii: It's stuck at the blue screen again I think. Will check 4th
[18:12] <thedoor> Duke_Fluke, he's too slow whitout dma =/
[18:12] <genii> Djerkaf: OK
[18:12] <anthony> hey guys, which is the french site?*
[18:12] <shaft0r> Hammy, ah i see ok. yeah that makes sense.
[18:13] <Hammy> well, that is until I had some computer issues and now I'm stuck using ubuntu full time since I can't install windows anymore
[18:13] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, Then i'll just boot into the liveCD and restore GRUB, and edit the menu.lst.
[18:13] <Djerkaf> genii: Can't check 4th.
[18:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: You would need to reinstall ubuntu or fdisk /mbr or fixmbr  from dos/windows cd
[18:13] <Djerkaf> genii: Nothing happens when I press ALT+f4
[18:13] <Hammy> So, could someone give me a hand here, I want to get separate backgrounds on each of my desktop panels, but there doesn't seem to be an easy way to do it
[18:13] <genii> Djerkaf: You used the acpi=oldboot     on this occasion or another option>?
[18:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: I was not following along.. I just logged in.. SO not sure what all you are doing.
[18:14] <Djerkaf> genii: acpi=oldboot , yes.
[18:14] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, If that happens, i'll search the 'net and the wiki and surely find the solution. Also, reinstalling Ubuntu doesn't cause that, right?
[18:14] <Jeruvy> hmm, I cannot 'mount' a usb disk for some reason.  Any idea's ?
[18:14] <shaft0r> Does anyoen know of a site with info about "disaster recovery" stuff? if i install ubuntu and dual boot w/ a lite windows install for games only, and ubuntu gets hosed, i want to learn how to fix it w/o a reinstall if at all possible
[18:14] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, I'm discussing about installing Ubuntu, but i want to do it in a way not harmful to my Windows install. I could use my USB stick for that, but then i can't use PortableApps
[18:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: If you remove ubuntu, add second partiton for /home then reinstall you should have no problems
[18:15] <genii> Djerkaf: The lack of documentation on your motherboard is frustrating. ECS has nothing on it on their support anymore
[18:15] <Duke_Fluke> thedoor: can you run "lspci -v | grep IDE" and tell me what it says
[18:15] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, I've had many people say to me that Dual-booting is dangerous. Also, i need both Windows and Linux. Windows for some special tasks, and Linux because i feel comfortable with that.
[18:16] <Djerkaf> genii: I know, it's irritating. The only info page I have found is www.motherboard.cz/mb/ecs/P6SET-ML.htm   but I doubt it contains the info you would need to solve the problem?
[18:16] <Hammy> no one's gonna help me with this then? I know it's not a big issue, but I'd like to tweak my panels a little
[18:16] <bicky> hey, I just installed vmware server on ubuntu 7.04. But when I try to start it, nothing shows up, not even errors.
[18:16] <Arelis> Hammy, #ubuntu-offtopic
[18:16] <Djerkaf> genii: (beware of adult advertising on that link)
[18:16] <ThipThip> I have a burning question that seems like it would have a simple answer:  How does one know, from error messages, the name of the package that needs to be installed?  For example, the error I am receiving is "No package 'gnome-python-2.0' found."  Yet there is no package called "gone-python-2.0".  Can anyone help me to understand this?
[18:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: I dont know who said dual booting is dangerous.  I have done it for years with no problem.. My golden rule is neither os writes to the partition of the other os
[18:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: You can add a shared partition or use a usb for that...
[18:17] <genii> Djerkaf: So you have 1 hd and 1 cdrom on the system , the hd is master on first channel...cd rom..it is master on second channel I hope. If this is the setup, then in the bios make slave for primarhy and slave for secondary "None"
[18:17] <Djerkaf> genii: and I'm not 100% sure that's the exact same model as the one I have. But that's what I've found by jumping between forums.
[18:18] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, I don't know what a shared partition is. Please explain. And, if i could use my usb for that, it would be great.. but will i still be able to use it's storage?
[18:18] <Rug> Howdy all
[18:18] <genii> Djerkaf: Since trying with the plug and play turned off is not being helpful, turn it on as well in the  bios
[18:19] <incorrect> is there a backport repo of newer kernels?
[18:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: I have a partition for windows, a partition for ubuntu, a partition for /home and a spare ext3 and a spare fat32  the spares are accessible to both windows and ubuntu
[18:19] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, On your usb stick?
[18:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: on my hard drive
[18:19] <zatic> I want to encode 1 h264 video from 2 wmv source files. I know how to encode, but how can I join 2 source files into 1 ? (using ffmpeg)
[18:20] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, That's pretty clever. How do i do that?
[18:20] <bicky> hey, when I try to run vmware on ubuntu7.04 nothing happens at all
[18:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: I use fat32 on my usb's
[18:20] <shaft0r> When a new version of ubuntu comes out, how do you upgrade to that version?
[18:20] <Rug> I have a Dell 1521 Inspiron, and I can't get the wifi to work.  I have installed the broadcom firmware, modprobe bcm43xx, and iwconfig, but I get the error "no wireless extensions"
[18:20] <youknowme> How do i add a bitrate stamp to some of my music? They have none and I think its stopping slimserver from playing them.. Help?
[18:20] <Djerkaf> genii: Done. Both slaves = none , PNP on
[18:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: There is a limit of 4 primary partitions on a drive so you will need to create an extended partition and plae logical partitions on it.
[18:20] <Jack_Sparrow> place or create
[18:21] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, Fine with me. I only have 80GB of space, though/.
[18:21] <ericfoy> shaft0r:  Ubuntu asked me if I wanted to upgrade my newly installed 7.04 to 7.1.  I said yes, and it all just happened.  took abt 2 hrs.
[18:21] <Jeruvy> hmm, I cannot 'mount' a usb disk for some reason.  "Unable to mount media - There is probably no media in the drive"  I just need to get one zip off this drive.
[18:22] <Jeruvy> does ubuntu need something special to read VFAT?
[18:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: With 80 gig I would still need to create an extended as I didnt include the swap partition in what I told you
[18:22] <shaft0r> ericfoy, oh sweet thanks a bunch.
[18:22] <Rug> Jeruvy: no it doesn't
[18:22] <Jeruvy> Rug: so whats with this error?
[18:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: so 4 partitions just under 20 and one swap around 2 - 4 gig
[18:22] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, I have a laptop I can use to communicate with you. Would you be willing to guide me through the process?
[18:22] <Rug> Jeruvy: unplug & replug the usbkey.   type dmesg |tail
[18:23] <mattgyver> Is it possible to setup a user account to login to a different network?
[18:23] <Rug> Jeruvy: and tell me what it says
[18:23] <shaft0r> Are there any draw backs to 64bit ubuntu?
[18:23] <ThipThip> Can someone help me understand apt-get better?  I don't understand how to figure out which package needs to be installed.  For example, the error I'm currently getting is "No package 'gnome-python-2.0' found," yet there is no package by the name as far as I can tell.
[18:23] <sethk> shaft0r, yes
[18:23] <Rug> shaft0r: yupp
[18:23] <shaft0r> should i just got 32?
[18:23] <shaft0r> go*
[18:23] <Rug> shaft0r: do you have >4Gb of Ram?
[18:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: It isnt hard and anyone here should be able to walk you through it..  I dont have the time and would not want to drop you in the middle of something so important
[18:23] <shaft0r> no, not on my desktop.
[18:23] <Jeruvy> Rug: did, same error.  "VFS: busy inodes on changed media" from dmesg.
[18:23] <sethk> shaft0r, I would, unless you have a strong need for 64
[18:24] <shaft0r> sethk, nah, was just curious.
[18:24] <ericfoy> hi all:  can anyone tell me how to make my hpt370 RAID (Abit KR7A-RAID mobo) work in gutsy?  I don't want to boot from it, just use it in RAID-1 mode for data.
[18:24] <shaft0r> sethk, i know w/ windows there are serious drawbacks. ie: drivers, apps, etc.
[18:24] <Rug> Jeruvy: odd
[18:24] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, Alright. Is no problem. Although i think my logging function wasn't on.. Can you pastebin parts of the conversation, so i can try it myself? (The information about the partitions, and so on..)
[18:24] <JamoSmith> can someone help me troubleshoot my new monitor, it's stuck in kid's toy mode (800x600) - I've tried following the steps in FixVideoResolution @ help.ubuntu.com and I think I need some more personal assistance. It's a LG226TQ (widescreen) and I'm trying to get it to display in 1680x1050
[18:24] <sethk> shaft0r, similar issues with linux
[18:24] <Jeruvy> Rug:  I thought so too
[18:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: I like using the gparted livecd to setup the partitions rather than gparted on the ubuntu livecd
[18:25] <Jack_Sparrow> !gparted
[18:25] <ubotu> GParted is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/
[18:25] <shaft0r> sethk; thanks
[18:25] <Jeruvy> Rug: seems to read it, since it can keep the drive busy for several minutes.  But cannot access the files.
[18:25] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, I've tried that but that liveCD fails on my computer. It loads, then has a weird screen, then halts.
[18:26] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, But that's not the problem we want to solve....
[18:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: Get a version at least 4 revisions back from the current...
[18:26] <ThipThip> Come on, I know there are some people who can answer a basic question about repositories, won't anyone respond?  How do I know, based on an error message, which package I need to install?
[18:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: Let me see the # of the one I use most
[18:26] <Rug> Jeruvy: it seems odd that it isn't assigning a /dev/sd?? to the device
[18:26] <Djerkaf> genii: It's stuck again.
[18:27] <dgjones> Arelis, I've had that problem with the gparted livecd, its not just you, i used an ubuntu livecd ran gparted from that and created the necessary partitions, then did the install specifying the partitions to use and mount
[18:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: 0.2.5-1 is the one I use most
[18:27] <ericfoy> ThipThip:  I've always just had to google the stuff and investigate...
[18:27] <mattgyver> ThipThip, what are you trying to install?
[18:27] <bullgard4> (My 'make menuconfig' is running.) Synaptic writes: "The documentation for the 'make' package does not meet the Debian Free Software Guidelines, and has been removed from this package." Can you recommend a user guide for 'make' that includes the parameter 'menuconfig'? 'apropos menuconfig' does not produce an output.
[18:27] <Arelis> dgjones, Alright :). Yeah, why use that liveCD when i can just use the Ubuntu livecd :)
[18:28] <unagi> !vm
[18:28] <ubotu> There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications
[18:28] <chimp> How do I make compiz start upon login?
[18:28] <Jeruvy> Rug: it should auto-mount the device, or so I've been told
[18:28] <unagi> !virtualbox
[18:28] <ubotu> virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available in !Gutsy as 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox
[18:28] <timandtom> How do I go about updating Wine from 9.46 to 9.53? Is there some way to do it without having to download it then install it with terminal? (I'm kinda an idiot, can never get the command right in terminal)
[18:28] <genii> Djerkaf: Well I'm pretty close to out of ideas then. I'm suspecting either a few bad hd, or possibly ide controller is screwy perhaps. Although you may still want to try with experimenting on the different options like noacpi  etc etc as listed on the page I supplied
[18:28] <krim> If I have MOVIE.ISO and MOVIE.MDS and change the names to FILM.ISO and FILM.MDS will that cause any problems? Like MDS somehow loosing track of the ISO?
[18:28] <Rug> Jeruvy: yes it should, but to troubleshoot it, we need to depend on ourselves no the automounter.
[18:29] <genii> Djerkaf: If you have an ide controller which is on a separate card you could disable onboard and try that
[18:29] <Rug> Jeruvy: after you plug it in, type lslsb
[18:29] <Djerkaf> genii: Nope, the disk is connected directly on the motherboard.
[18:29] <unagi> !vmware
[18:29] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player", not available for Gutsy, only Feisty and Edgy), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. Instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[18:29] <mattgyver> chimp, did you install Emerald Theme Manager?
[18:29] <ThipThip> ericfoy and mattgyver:  Really? Google and investigate?  I'm surprised that there is no easier way to correlate an error message to a needed package.  In this case, the error message I'm getting is "No package 'gnome-python-2.0' found."  Upon receiving similar messages, I have always googled and found satisfactory results, but this time I cannot figure it out.
[18:30] <mattgyver> ThipThip, you can always search synaptic, or aptitude search via command line
[18:30] <chimp> No mattgyver, i'm running from an upgrade from 7.04, and at the minute to start it i always need to do compiz --replace
[18:30] <chimp> Which needless to say is a pain
[18:30] <mattgyver> Chimp, heres what i did
[18:30] <ThipThip> mattgyver: I tried info apt-get and I couldn't figure out how to perform a search.  How do I do it?
[18:31] <Rug> I have a Dell 1521 Inspiron, and I can't get the wifi to work.  I have installed the broadcom firmware, modprobe bcm43xx, and iwconfig, but I get the error "no wireless extensions"
[18:31] <mattgyver> sudo aptitude search packagename
[18:31] <Djerkaf> genii: I will try experimenting a little, but now it has become kind of boring rebooting and waiting. I just thought it would be nice to be able to use the old scrap for something useful. :)
[18:31] <ericfoy> Based on that, I would look for a package called 'gnome-python' or something.  seriously... I'm a newb at linux, so...
[18:31] <mattgyver> Chimp, Install Emerald Theme Manager.  Then add that to your sessions list; beryl-manager
[18:31] <ole_> hi, i got a quick question. its my first day on linux :D and i cant find the answer. probably to easy. whats the program called wich i use to browse files in ubuntu (want to open it from terminal, dont kno the cmd)
[18:31] <Jeruvy> Rug: one sec I'm rebooting
[18:31] <bolstaslkdjfa> Rug: have you tried ndiswrapper? thats what finally got it to work for me (Inspiron 1420)
[18:32] <pike_> ole_: nautilus
[18:32] <ole_> thx alot
[18:32] <Rug> bolstaslkdjfa: I'll give it a try
[18:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52031/  read that and see if it makes sense
[18:32] <pike_> ole_: nautilus& if you want to release the terminal
[18:32] <mattgyver> Chimp, you might have to actually select Compiz as the window manager you want when you load ETM.
[18:32] <chimp> Is emerald theme manager a good package to have isntalled anyway matt?
[18:32] <mattgyver> but its easy
[18:32] <mattgyver> eah
[18:32] <mattgyver> yeah
[18:32] <genii> Djerkaf: You might try telling it the speed of the ide... the slowest speed would be 33 for instance on very ancient ones, then 66 then 100 then 133    eg:  idebus=33    or so
[18:32] <mattgyver> Especially if you begin to have problems, it lets you select a different manager, like ubuntus default metacity
[18:33] <ericfoy> hi all:  can anyone tell me how to make my hpt370 RAID (Abit KR7A-RAID mobo) work in gutsy?  I don't want to boot from it, just use it in RAID-1 mode for data.
[18:33] <ThipThip> ok, I searched for python and got a boatload of results.
[18:33] <tomd123> so i installed banshee but how do i go about listening to music through daap?
[18:33] <Rug> !ndiswrapper
[18:33] <tomd123> I don't see any list of computers i can listen to
[18:33] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[18:33] <Djerkaf> genii: I will try that too. Thank you for your help! I will stay here for a while in case something useful would pop up in your head! :D
[18:33] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, That made sense to me. Thank you! :).
[18:33] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[18:33] <mattgyver> ThipThip, thats pretty much what you do.
[18:33] <mattgyver> ThipThip, in my experience its never as easy as it should be..
[18:34] <bolstaslkdjfa> rug: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper

[18:34] <powerj1> how do check system temperature in ubuntu>
[18:34] <mattgyver> chip, yes
[18:35] <genii> Djerkaf: If you have also the slaves now set to off in bios use perhaps hdb=none hdd=none    to prevent probing for them by linux
[18:35] <ThipThip> is there an "and" operator for this search function?  Info doesn't seem to indicate one.
[18:35] <pike_> powerj1: most people search synaptic for an applet to add to gnome-panel there are some temp ones
[18:35] <ericfoy> Anyone using RAID..?:  can anyone tell me how to make my hpt370 RAID (Abit KR7A-RAID mobo) work in gutsy?  I don't want to boot from it, just use it in RAID-1 mode for data.
[18:35] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, I store large files on my harddrive, though. What sizes would i need for that?
[18:35] <Hammy> is there a irc channel for gnome or something I could try asking in instead?
[18:35] <Rug> bolstaslkdjfa: thanks
[18:35] <mattgyver> powerjl, at command line, cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature
[18:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: Do you mean what partition type for that?
[18:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: Which system will access them the most. ubuntu or windows
[18:36] <mattgyver> powerjl, thats how ive always done it.
[18:36] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, Yes. and size. I think Ubuntu will access those files the most.
[18:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: Then I would make the spare ext3 and not fat32

[18:37] <lemontea> are there c++ programmings?
[18:37] <ThipThip> mattgyver:  I seem to have the all the packages resembling "gnome-python" installed.  I've also searched the forums with no success.  Do you happen to know what "No package 'gnome-python-2.0' found" requires me to do?  Or do you have another suggestion for where I might look?
[18:37] <Djerkaf> genii: I will try that too, thanks
[18:37] <Pici> bullgard4: 'menuconfig' is just a defined target for the makefile you are running against, it is not something you are going to find in a make manual.
[18:37] <chimp> Ok matt how do i setup this emerald thing to use compiz?
[18:37] <Pici> lemontea: ##c++
[18:38] <lemontea> pici ???
[18:38] <Arelis> I store movies and music. But i install lots of games too (on Windows). Actually, i want to use Ubuntu for multimedia and most daily task, while i want to use Windows for things like games and artistic hobbies. I am not very experienced with partitioning, so what scheme would fit with that?
[18:38] <Arelis> err
[18:38] <Arelis> that was a question to Jack_Sparrow
[18:38] <Pici> lemontea: What are you asking then?
[18:38] <lemontea> pici is that command???
[18:38] <Pici> lemontea: Thats an irc channel.
[18:38] <dadster> how do you install Java Runtime Environment?
[18:38] <lemontea> pici where to get c++ programs
[18:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: Files over 4 gig cant go on fat32
[18:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: Choices are ntfs or ext3
[18:38] <CaBlGuY> dadster:  look up JRE in sinaptic..
[18:39] <dadster> thanks
[18:39] <mattgyver> ThipThip, not too sure.
[18:39] <thannoy> bicky: do you use DHCP ? I have a similar problem. I thought it was due to the renewal timeout of my DHCP (135 seconds). I can not reconnect after 15 hours , or a working day running..
[18:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: There are other choices people..please no flames about reiser
[18:39] <CaBlGuY> dadster:  Np..  ;)
[18:39] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, Yes but also a partitioning scheme. Would those spares really fit that tasks?
[18:39] <MrKeuner> Hi, I am having problem with evolution filtering messages. It looks like it does not filter any messages. using default evolution package from the repository for 7.10. Am I alone?
[18:39] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, Also, i only have 768MB ram
[18:39] <mattgyver> Anyone know anything about the bluez package?
[18:40] <john47> Hello - Can anyone suggest a good magazine for Linux users?  Or Ubuntu users?  I have read PC World, PC Magazine, and MacWorld in the past, but am looking for suggestions for something that's dedicated to Linux (and that isn't too darned complicated that it goes over my head - general interest magazine).  Thanks!
[18:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Arelis: That is fine for ram...   80 gigs is not that much if you have tone of huge files.. adjust those sizes to suit your needs.. That is NOT something I can decide for you.. I do need to go
[18:40] <CaBlGuY> ok, I got a questio now..  I've just recently upgraded my PC to 64 bit..  I have installed Ubuntu before but, was not able to get flash to work..  I've installed windowz on another HDD and flash works fine..  is there something I have to do to get flash to work with the 64 biut Ubuntu?
[18:40] <Arelis> Jack_Sparrow, ALright. Bye, and thanks for the help :)
[18:41] <norv> does I need to set up some alternate sources.list, or is there a -dev package for Tcl and Tk?
[18:41] <erawfish> CaBlGuY: there is no adboe flash for 64bit linux. just doesn't exist
[18:41] <norv> do*
[18:41] <bullgard4> Pici: I know now that 'menuconfig' is just a defined target for the makefile that I am running. (I would call it a 'parameter'.) Why can one not find a description of 'menuconfig'? Example: 'man ls' includes a description of the '-a' parameter yet.
[18:41] <erawfish> norv: there is
[18:41] <LjL> !flash64 > CaBlGuY    (CaBlGuY, see the private message from Ubotu)
[18:41] <wild_oscar> can anyone tell me the meaning of this:
[18:41] <CaBlGuY> erawfish:  then why am I able to get it to work in Windowz??
[18:41] <Goodgame> hello
[18:41] <wild_oscar>   Overwriting packaged files and adding unmanaged files by running sudo make install may break upgrades. A better way is to create a backport by using the build scripts from your current alsa source packages.
[18:41] <norv> erawfish: apt-cache search found nothing like tcl-dev
[18:41] <erawfish> bullgard4: cause it doesn't exist and every point in menuconfig has a "help" button duh!
[18:42] <Goodgame> I'd like to know how long can I hope to work on a 17" laptop ?
[18:42] <john47> Hello - Can anyone suggest a good magazine for Linux users?  Or Ubuntu users?  I have read PC World, PC Magazine, and MacWorld in the past, but am looking for suggestions for something that's dedicated to Linux (and that isn't too darned complicated that it goes over my head - general interest magazine).  Thanks!
[18:42] <pike_> john47: there are dell computers with ubuntu preinstalled also system76 computers ...ive had good luck with asus and toshiba. just remember you want intel or nvidia for graphics and stay away from broadcom wifi
[18:42] <ericfoy> ThipThip: I've looked, and my pkg manager has no 'gnome-python2', but it does have a 'python-gnome2' package.  who knows...? did you try that yet?
[18:42]  * CaBlGuY reads..
[18:42] <thannoy> CaBlGuY: try installing a 32bit swiftfow and then install flash on it. I have eared about that, nerver tester
[18:42] <norv> erawfish: oh, had to split it up with grep.. found it
[18:42] <LjL> wild_oscar: it means you should never mess with anything outside of your /home directory unless you know what you're doing extremely well. rather, you should install software using the package manager
[18:42] <john47> pike_: Sorry was that message meant for someone else?
[18:42] <pike_> john47: oh magazine.. most of em are online
[18:42] <thannoy> CaBlGu: *swiftfox
[18:42] <bullgard4> erawfish: Tell me what "duh!" means, please.
[18:43] <erawfish> bullgard4: that you shouldn't compile your own kernel since 99% it ends in tears
[18:43] <ericfoy> hi all:  can anyone tell me how to make my hpt370 RAID (Abit KR7A-RAID mobo) work in gutsy?  I don't want to boot from it, just use it in RAID-1 mode for data.
[18:43] <john47> pike_: Any mag you like in particular?
[18:43] <Djerkaf> genii: I just found at a forum: "The problem is not that the computer is too old. It is that it's acpi support is too old."
[18:43] <norv> why tile can't come preinstalled in Tk I don't know why. perhaps to make ActiveTcl "worth it"
[18:43] <erawfish> ericfoy: afaik there is no hpt370 driver. and it's only fakeraid anyways
[18:43] <pike_> john47: nah mostly slashdot etc. but see http://www.linux.org/docs/reference.html
[18:43] <ThipThip> ericfoy:  python-gnome2-dev did the trick!  Thanks!
[18:43] <Djerkaf> genii: Wouldn't updating the acpi driver help then?
[18:43] <mattgyver> wild_oscar, sounds like its warning you that it may not update correctly based on what your doing.
[18:43] <ericfoy> ThipThip: glad I could help!
[18:44] <john47> pike_: Awesome link, thanks!
[18:44] <ScorpKing> hi guys. what's available for gnome that is simmilar to superkaramba?
[18:44] <wild_oscar> yes...I was refering to the part of "creating a backport"
[18:44] <dynacrylic> how do i rebuild php5 to include php5-imap? i'm running 6.06 lts
[18:44] <erawfish> ScorpKing: gdekslets
[18:44] <ThipThip> ericfoy and mattgyver:  Is there a way that I could use aptitude to search for *-dev for example?  Are there 'and' and 'or" operators or wildcards?  This information doesn't seem to be listed in the info.
[18:44] <ScorpKing> erawfish: how is it on the cpu?
[18:45] <perlmonkey> hi
[18:45] <perlmonkey> anyone speak french?
[18:45] <norv> be neat if it was possible to run Yahoo/Konfabulator/whatevery they call it now in KDE
[18:45] <erawfish> dynacrylic: there is a package for it
[18:45] <erawfish> !fr | perlmonkey
[18:45] <perlmonkey> !fr
[18:45] <Pici> ThipThip: then use a combination of `aptitude search python | grep gnome` or similar.
[18:45] <dynacrylic> erawfish, what is it called
[18:45] <erawfish> dynacrylic: php5-imap for example
[18:45] <perlmonkey> nothing :-/
[18:45] <erawfish> ubotu: ping
[18:46] <dynacrylic> erawfish, i tried "apt-get install php5-imap" and it failed on install

[18:46] <Pici> perlmonkey: join #ubuntu-fr
[18:46] <perlmonkey> bonjour
[18:46] <ericfoy> ThipThip, I dunno.  I use the synaptics package manager.  It does a nice job of presenting the modules. It's all I know, since it came with my stock GUI install.
[18:46] <erawfish> dynacrylic: universe
[18:46] <ThipThip> Pici: Are you saying that the | will act as an "or"?  Is there also an "and"?
[18:46] <fix_> hi
[18:46] <Pici> ThipThip: no, grep will filter out anything that matches
[18:46] <erawfish> ThipThip: this is a pipe. no or and no and
[18:46] <ThipThip> ericfoy:  I also like snaptics, but its search function seems even more limited than the command line
[18:46] <genii> Djerkaf: No, since all the stuff that would be relevant would be in the machine's firmware and not in any driver (which likely would be windows-centric anyhow and useless to linux)
[18:47] <genii> Djerkaf: Sorry for lag, had to talk with boss a minute there
[18:47] <fix_> anybody can help me?
[18:47] <norv> ThipThip: or is a ||
[18:47] <Pici> !ask | fix_
[18:47] <ubotu> fix_: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question -- All On One Line, so others can read it and follow it easily --. and if anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[18:47] <dynacrylic> erawfish, this is the error I get: http://pastebin.ca/856310
[18:47] <erawfish> norv: that's logical or, | is a bitwise or
[18:47] <DrakeJustice_> anyone in here running xine-lib 1.1.9(.1?) ? on gutsy? im trying to compile kde4
[18:47] <dynacrylic> erawfish, i already added the universe (i think)
[18:48] <genii> Djerkaf: If the acpi system is suspect then can try more options relating there, like entirely turn it off with acpi=off      etc etc
[18:48] <ThipThip> norv:  Cool. :-)
[18:48] <ericfoy> Thip, yeah... I've always just browsed, I guess.
[18:48] <erawfish> dynacrylic: so you already have it
[18:48] <erawfish> dynacrylic: and fix your clamav
[18:48] <fix_> how to use debian cd in ubuntu?
[18:48] <erawfish> fix_: what for?
[18:48] <norv> erawfish: oh, so | (pipe) is also | (bitwise or)?
[18:48] <dynacrylic> erawfish, what is clamav and how do i fix it?
[18:48] <erawfish> norv: in different contexts: yes
[18:48] <norv> erawfish: or just different language syntax
[18:49] <erawfish> dynacrylic: don't install stuff you don't know about. it's a virus scanner for email
[18:49] <Djerkaf> genii: will try acpi=off now...
[18:49] <Pici> fix_: What do you mean?
[18:49] <genii> Djerkaf: I would try:      acpi=off noapic nolapic
[18:49] <Djerkaf> genii: Ok
[18:49] <ericfoy> hi all:  can anyone tell me how to make my hpt370 RAID (Abit KR7A-RAID mobo) work in gutsy?  I don't want to boot from it, just use it in RAID-1 mode for data.
[18:49] <erawfish> ericfoy: there is no driver for it
[18:49] <fix_> erawfish, can i get package from deb cd?
[18:49] <DRebellion> !raid | ericfoy
[18:49] <ubotu> ericfoy: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto
[18:49] <erawfish> ericfoy: and using raid on it is useless: it's fakeraid
[18:50] <CaBlGuY> thannoy:  thanks a bunch!  Swiftfox works right outa the box..  ;-)
[18:50] <Pici> fix_: No, debian packages are not meant to be install on Ubuntu.
[18:50] <ericfoy> erawfish: thanks.  I take it I must compile my own then...?
[18:50] <dynacrylic> erawfish, i was following instructions and it said to install that. didn't have instructions on setting that up
[18:50] <Pici> !debian | fix_
[18:50] <ubotu> fix_: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[18:50] <erawfish> fix_: no. run debian if you want that.debian packages don't work on ubuntu
[18:50] <CaBlGuY> !swiftfox
[18:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about swiftfox - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[18:50] <CaBlGuY> need to put that in the repos..
[18:50] <DRebellion> !find swiftfox | CaBlGuY
[18:51] <audela> Do someone could explain me that : http://pastebin.ca/856312 bind did not recognize $TTL ?!
[18:51] <ubotu> cablguy: Package/file swiftfox does not exist in gutsy
[18:51] <erawfish> dynacrylic: then it'S useless for you. learn about it if you want to use it
[18:51] <CaBlGuY> DRebellion:  thanks but I already got it..  ;_0
[18:51] <CaBlGuY> ;-)
[18:51] <ericfoy> what makes it fakeraid?  I'm listening, not arguing.
[18:51] <Pici> CaBlGuY: Then request it. Developers arent psychic.
[18:51] <even> which software you using for pastebin.ubuntu.org ?
[18:51] <erawfish> ericfoy: cause the raid functionality is all in the windows driver. fakeraid
[18:51] <CaBlGuY> Pici:  where do I put the request in at?
[18:51] <Pici> !bugs | CaBlGuY

[18:51] <CaBlGuY> K thjankls
[18:52] <CaBlGuY> thanks aven.. :-p
[18:52] <fix_> erawfish, ok. and how can get kppp for ubuntu?
[18:52] <erawfish> ie. the CPU does all the work and the OS' software raid is better to use since hardware can die and then it will be imposible to get another hpt370, usually leading to lost data.
[18:52] <ThipThip> Man, I'm having the damndest time trying to compile a piece of software... at every turn, I seem to run into problems.  Now I can't get "make" to work.
[18:52] <ericfoy> no kidding!  no wonder it never performed worth squat.  so do I just set it up as IDE in its bios?
[18:52] <erawfish> ericfoy: all you get from it all is vendor lock in by hpt
[18:52] <DRebellion> !make | ThipThip
[18:52] <ubotu> ThipThip: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first)
[18:53] <erawfish> fix_: by installing it like any other package
[18:53] <thannoy> CaBlGuY: You can go to the swiftfow website and get their repository address. Then add it to you "synaptic"/"source.list" and you will be able to use it through apt/synaptics
[18:54] <CaBlGuY> thannoy:  thanks..  I gotcha.. ;)
[18:54] <fix_> erawfish, ok
[18:54] <fix_> erawfish, thanks
[18:55] <Goodgame> Please, can someone tell me the autonomy of a 6 celluls battery on a 17"

[18:55] <ThipThip> make install
[18:55] <ThipThip> doh :)

[18:55] <XiXaQ> Does anyone have Flash in Opera?
[18:55] <Goodgame> Pici, where could I ask my question?
[18:55] <jac0b-work> what file do I change for my $PATH
[18:55] <ericfoy> So the new question is, how do I get Ubuntu to recognize the drives plugged into my hpt370 holes?
[18:56] <mike84> hi
[18:56] <Pici> Goodgame: I dont even understand your question, perhaps ##hardware?
[18:56] <erawfish> Goodgame: #hardware for example. and your question can't be answered
[18:56] <XiXaQ> jac0b-work, ~/.bashrc
[18:56] <mike84> how can i recourd soundoutput in ubuntu?
[18:56] <jac0b-work> I tried .bashrc
[18:56] <XiXaQ> jac0b-work, you must close terminal and reopen it.
[18:56] <jac0b-work> but when I did echo $PATH it didn't show my new PATH
[18:56] <erawfish> jac0b-work: grep PATH ~./.*
[18:56] <pike_> jac0b-work: echo export PATH=$PATH >> ~/.bashrc  then add whatever extra dir yoiu want
[18:57] <jac0b-work> did that also
[18:57] <Pici> jac0b-work: you need to relog after you change your .bashrc.
[18:57] <bassinboyw1> what to do when ubuntu is stuck on configuring apt, something about mirror (82%)
[18:57] <bassinboyw1> does it not use the global proxy?
[18:57] <Daniloc> hi 2 all
[18:57] <jac0b-work> so restart after I edit bashrc
[18:57] <Djerkaf> genii: acpi=off noapic nolapic   => Blue screen, no alt+f4 available  =/
[18:57] <XiXaQ> bassinboyw1, is this on a pc that's connected to a network that isn't connected to the internet?
[18:57] <Daniloc> who know with webmin to create partitions to work in software raid?
[18:57] <Pici> Daniloc: We dont support webmin here, sorry.
[18:58] <Auser> ubunta sucks , MICROSOFT rules
[18:58] <Daniloc> ok Pici
[18:58] <bassinboyw1> XiXaQ: yes, and i set a global proxy
[18:58] <erawfish> Auser: do you have a ubuntu related question?
[18:58] <XiXaQ> bassinboyw1, disconnect your network cable.
[18:58] <bassinboyw1> XiXaQ: did that, it worked, but i'm wondering why not just use my proxy?
[18:58] <ericfoy> Auser,  HAH HAH HAH HAAAAHHH HAH HAH. That's a good one!!!!!!
[18:58] <Auser> were can i get it on cd
[18:58] <jac0b-work> what about the /etc/enviroment file
[18:58] <XiXaQ> bassinboyw1, I don't know. I've reported a bug on it.

[18:59] <bassinboyw1> XiXaQ: thank you
[18:59] <Auser> this is a free OS, right
[18:59] <erawfish> jac0b-work: not what you think it is. you were told were to change it. your choice if you don't want to
[18:59] <DRebellion> !foss | Auser
[18:59] <ubotu> Auser: freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing
[18:59] <erawfish> Auser: yes
[18:59] <Rug> yupp, you can also download it and burn it yourself
[18:59] <crabgrass> real quick question, is there a grep equivilent for /list in irc?
[18:59] <jac0b-work> thanks
[18:59] <erawfish> Auser: you can order a CD for free but it'll take some time
[18:59] <XiXaQ> crabgrass, /quote help list
[18:59] <erawfish> crabgrass: no. it's also client dependent
[19:00] <Scunizi> Auser: or download it at www.ubuntu.com
[19:00] <Duke_Fluke> crabgrass: i just save list as a text file then grep it :)
[19:00] <XiXaQ> erawfish, that's not true. Most networks have filters for list
[19:00] <Pici> crabgrass: On freenode (this network), /list can take wildcards
[19:00] <crabgrass> Duke_Fluke: lol, good idea
[19:00] <jac0b-work> does anyone use checkinstall here
[19:00] <erawfish> XiXaQ: you are still OT
[19:00] <pike_> Auser: its best to have a friend burn it for ya
[19:00] <erawfish> XiXaQ: and rfc1459 doesn't have such a thing. HAND
[19:00] <crabgrass> Pici: thanks
[19:01] <Qaldune> hi there
[19:01] <genii> Djerkaf: Perhaps: acpi=off pci=routeirq
[19:01] <Auser> Sorry, but I prefer Microsoft's quality
[19:01] <Qaldune> is it possible to resize a ntfs partition when installing gutsy?
[19:01] <XiXaQ> erawfish, this network isn't strict rfc1459. Besides, there are newer protocols. But you're right. We're OT.
[19:01] <crabgrass> Duke_Fluke: man, that's not a bad idea. do you know if pidgin accepts commands like irc:crabgrass:/list from the commandline?
[19:01] <erawfish> Qaldune: yes
[19:01] <crabgrass> Duke_Fluke: 'cause I just got an idea for a really handy plugin :D
[19:02] <XiXaQ> Auser, then use Windows. Noones forcing you to use ubuntu.
[19:02] <Qaldune> erawfish: is there something needed to do so besides defragmenting?
[19:02] <shaft0r> hey guys... running firefox and flash is all jacked up... do i need to do something special other than install the adobe player?
[19:02] <Pici> !flashissues | shaft0r
[19:02] <ubotu> shaft0r: The Flash plugin installation is currently broken. This is due to Adobe changing the tar file that the package downloads. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=636397 if you need to fix this immediately, but it's recommended to wait for an official fix.
[19:02] <Auser> is it an NT-based, i hope so like my xp!
[19:02] <erawfish> Qaldune: no there shouldn't
[19:02] <Djerkaf> genii: routeirq  <- Spelling mistake?
[19:02] <ericfoy> Auser:  Seriously, if you were to install Ubuntu and see the kind of support it offers... from automated updates, to all the FREE stuff.  It would blow your mind!
[19:02] <madrazr> Hii all, can I setup a server on my home machine?? I am running Gutsy
[19:02] <shaft0r> Pici, thank you very much

[19:02] <ubotu> Auser: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - For more: /msg ubotu stages
[19:02] <JCDENTON> !selinux
[19:02] <Djerkaf> genii: or have I got temporarily stupid(er) ?
[19:02] <ubotu> SELinux is available on Ubuntu, but not officially supported. Ubuntu uses another security framework by default, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppArmor
[19:03] <XiXaQ> crabgrass, all clients I know of supports the quote command to send commands directly to the servecr.
[19:03] <Qaldune> thx erawfish
[19:03] <DRebellion> madrazr: what sort of server
[19:03] <crabgrass> XiXaQ: ooo, sounds like fun. imma look into this, brb
[19:03] <genii> Djerkaf: pci=routeirq     is correct
[19:03] <Assid> heya
[19:03] <Auser> selinux is different to ubunta, it is not for public release
[19:03] <shaft0r> Pici, does this only affect new installs or something? or no one on ubuntu has working flash right now?
[19:03] <madrazr> DRebellion: LAMP, I want to run my personal blog frm my Desktop
[19:03] <nixnoob> how do i kill an xserver on a different display?
[19:03] <DRebellion> !lamp | madrazr
[19:04] <XiXaQ> Auser, if you're only here to troll, please just go away.
[19:04] <shaft0r> Pici, other than the fix thats not recommended
[19:04] <madrazr> DRebellion: What??
[19:04] <ubotu> madrazr: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[19:04] <madrazr> DRebellion: point is that I dont have domain name registered
[19:04] <juannicolas> Hello, where or how can I install DBI perl module 1.60 in ubuntu 6.06
[19:04] <Pici> shaft0r: Other than the fix, we reccomend that you wait for a real fix.  We can't stop you from doing what you want though.
[19:04] <genii> Djerkaf: These two together should turn off acpi again, then use irq routing tables from the bios and not try to guess what belongs to what irq
[19:04] <XiXaQ> madrazr, hehe, sudo tasksel install lamp :)
[19:04] <DRebellion> madrazr: use a dynamic dns service
[19:04] <DRebellion> madrazr: i use dyndns.com
[19:04] <madrazr> XiXaQ: Thats done
[19:04] <XiXaQ> madrazr, www.dyndns.org
[19:05] <DRebellion> madrazr: XiXaQ: or .org rather :P
[19:05] <bemous> à tous
[19:05] <genii> Djerkaf: The hd controller should be normally at irq 14 and irg 15
[19:05] <pike_> shaft0r: there is no telling when the fix will be pushed through this has been an issue for while. if you want flash id recommend dropping it in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/ yourself
[19:05] <Assid> err

[19:06] <XiXaQ> madrazr, configure it. /etc/ddclient.conf, I think.
[19:06] <Silvered> Hi there. How can I script in Konversation? I need to add some manual commands like /msg X ban $activechannel =nickname
[19:06] <Auser> ok whatever, i knew it was public anyway, i was just testing u ignorant ubunta fan bois
[19:06] <DRebellion> madrazr: you need to set up dynamic dns on your router and register a domain name at the website
[19:06] <madrazr> DRebellion: I did not get u
[19:06] <Assid> Pici:  ok on topic.. i need some help with gnome-rdp.. it seems to give me errors
[19:06] <XiXaQ> Silvered, it probably supports python script. Explaining how to script an irc client is not suited for this channel. They probably have a channel here though.
[19:06] <Assid> actually wait fixed that
[19:07] <DRebellion> madrazr: have you set up a domain on the website?
[19:07] <jorginhuster> algum br na sala?

[19:07] <Silvered> Thanks XiXaQ
[19:07] <DRebellion> madrazr: k now does your router support dynamic dns?
[19:07] <Silvered> I'll ask in #konversation, maybe it works
[19:07] <Assid> even after enabling read/write support
[19:07] <jorginhuster> jldsfkj lfdsaj
[19:07] <madrazr> DRebellion: yeah it does
[19:07] <Assid> it always requires me to copy one hal file across

[19:10] <ubotu> ortodox: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[19:10] <XiXaQ> bemous, two different questions. How to setup samba is explained in help.ubuntu.com, how to use filesharing on vista is a question for #Windows
[19:10] <DRebellion> ortodox: what editor are you using?
[19:10] <madrazr> DRebellion: yeah, it does, its D-Link 502T router

[19:14] <genii> Djerkaf: Best luck
[19:14] <aktiskenan> thank you
[19:15] <wannadoanything> TV is not speaking your security  .hasan:
[19:15] <Tigerplug> hey guys, my external usb drive wont auto mount
[19:15] <thannoy> fitztrev: edit your /etc/apt/source.list. Comment the line about your ubuntu CD. Then "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get install patch"
[19:15] <Tigerplug> any suggestions?
[19:15] <wraund_> wraund_: <IP_ADDRESS>
[19:15] <wraund_> wrong chat soz
[19:15] <genii> thannoy: You're assuming he has other entries than the cd in there :)
[19:15] <hasan> what ?
[19:15] <fitztrev> thannoy: thank you!
[19:16] <madraz1> XiXaQ: What should I do after adding the entry to the router??
[19:16] <ericfoy> Can ubuntu mount an NTFS drive?
[19:16] <wannadoanything> Free not necessarily good.
[19:16] <XiXaQ> ericfoy, yes.
[19:16] <thannoy> fitztrev: As genii said, hope you have others repository :)
[19:17] <th0r> Tigerplug  unplug the drive, open a terminal and type 'tail -f /var/log/messages', then plug in the drive and see if it is being recognized. Look for a line that contains /dev/sdb1 or something close
[19:17] <XiXaQ> madraz1, it should auto update.
[19:17] <ericfoy> XiX, thanks. I assume i'll find info in the docs.
[19:17] <madraz1> XiXaQ: I did not get y
[19:17] <Xintruder> hi
[19:17] <madraz1> *u
[19:17] <th0r> ericfoy yes
[19:17] <genii> fitztrev: If you have no entries other than the cd, perhaps go to the source-o-matic website to generate a new sources.list
[19:17] <XiXaQ> madraz1, check the address on dyndns.org though. It may have used your internal ip. In that case, use=web in the config file instead of use=if
[19:17] <piedoggie>  I've been looking at the various hardware compatibility lists and I'm not finding a whole lot of description about what serial ATA cards are supported.  Any pointers?
[19:17] <genii> !source-o-matic| fitztrev
[19:17] <ubotu> fitztrev: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[19:17] <hasan> i just wanted to see how does ubuntu looks like, i m new to linux ;) not much concern with security etc. likes the enviroment for unbuntu its good
[19:18] <Tigerplug> th0r  cannot open `/var/log/message' for reading: No such file or directory
[19:18] <XiXaQ> hasan, you can run ubuntu from the cd without having to install it.
[19:18] <tomasso> where are the compiz options?
[19:18] <XiXaQ> Tigerplug, messages.
[19:18] <madraz1> XiXaQ: still did not get you. I have added a host with the name madhusudancs.doesntexist.com at dyndns.org
[19:18] <hasan> yeah i saw that :)
[19:19] <madraz1> XiXaQ: is it the right procedure??
[19:19] <th0r> Tigerplug sorry...you need to use sudo with that command
[19:19] <XiXaQ> madraz1, are you running ddclient?
[19:19] <madraz1> XiXaQ: yes
[19:19] <hasan> and its a unique feature as i came to know while installation i was discovering linux
[19:19] <XiXaQ> madraz1, what does that host point to now?
[19:19] <hasan> linux --> ubuntu
[19:19] <vinicius_> how can I remove the junk character of a file due to encoding? (like ^M for example)
[19:19] <madraz1> XiXaQ: in the ddclient.conf file??
[19:20] <Assid> files list file for package `scribus' is missing final newline
[19:20] <Qaldune> hasan ubuntu --> linux :)
[19:20] <mattgyver> Is it possible to configure a user to login to a different network?
[19:20] <th0r> Tigerplug on second thought you don't  need sudo...make sure you typed it correctly....tail -f /var/log/messages
[19:20] <hasan> hehe :) lol
[19:20] <Assid> i keep getting that error when i try and install ntfs-config
[19:20] <th0r> Tigerplug my problem...I left of an 's'
[19:20] <hasan> i was pointing ubuntu as a distro :P
[19:20] <XiXaQ> madraz1, no. Ping it. See what it sais, or look at it on dyndns.org
[19:21] <Tigerplug> th0r it worked with sudo
[19:21] <Xteven> hi, does anyone here use the gdata api in python ?
[19:21] <Tigerplug> hols on ill check
[19:21] <madraz1> XiXaQ: ping which address?
[19:21] <madraz1> XiXaQ: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52039/

[19:22] <mateusz> Hi
[19:22] <mateusz> Does ubuntu have QEmu ?
[19:23] <Tigerplug> th0r thanks
[19:23] <th0r> Tigerplug good so far...the hard part is getting it to recognize the drive and that is done. The drive was identified as /dev/sdb1. Check /media and see if there is a mountpoint for th edrive
[19:23] <Assid> okay this ubuntu installation is acting real strange
[19:23] <XiXaQ> madraz1, replace the use=if line with "use=web"
[19:23] <th0r> Tigerplug svensk?
[19:24] <Tigerplug> th0r no mountpoint in media directory
[19:24] <th0r> Tigerplug give me a sec to check some notes
[19:24] <Xteven> I mean, does anyone use python-gdata ?
[19:25] <thannoy> mateusz: I use qemu on my ubuntu so yes. But with universe repository or not, don't know

[19:28] <Assid> how did you reach 8 ?!?
[19:28] <genii> vinicius_: install sysutils package then use the dos2unix program
[19:28] <Pici> Assid: 8.04 is alpha, not for end user consumption yet.
[19:28] <askand> PriceChild:  noo but it will on june 5
[19:28] <askand> or something?

[19:29] <Tigerplug> I have a local server running torrentflux
[19:29] <Tigerplug> I want to delete and uninstall everything off the server and start again
[19:29] <Tigerplug> is there a way to do this?
[19:29] <Assid> Pici: this thing breaks just wayy too often.. the beta release was better than the final
[19:29] <PriceChild> askand, basically, when 8.04 is released, it will be perfect. or not.... and that's why it will be updated and cdimages produced called 8.04.1 later in its lifetime. (it is an lts release)
[19:29] <Tigerplug> everything except open ssh

[19:30] <madraz1> XiXaQ: ok fine. but what should I do after I setup ddclient?? is there some other configuration that needs to be done, or should I get the site running after ddclient configuration??
[19:30] <stasbull> change language i console
[19:30] <DRebellion> kerbert: what exactly is the problem?
[19:30] <askand> PriceChild:  ok..so 8.04.1 is 8.04 with bugs fixed? Is only security and critical bugs going to be fixed or "normal bugs" too?
[19:30] <XiXaQ> madraz1, that doesn't have anything to do with a site. It's just a nickname for your IP address.
[19:30] <DRebellion> kebert: what exactly is the problem
[19:30] <Taskin> I need some help... sometimes when I start my computer up my sound works... and some times it doesnt.. I ant to play my game right now but for some reason the sound doesnt work...

[19:35] <ubotu> Takagami: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question -- All On One Line, so others can read it and follow it easily --. and if anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[19:36] <invertedtwisted> thanks Duke, I guess cp is the copy command then. Couldn't find that :P
[19:36] <Assid> files list file for package `scribus' is missing final newline -- i get this when i try to install

[19:36] <stasbull> well... would be nice to get any tips about how to change layout from norwegian to english i console
[19:36] <Takagami> But my question wasn't a question.... it was a inquiry...
[19:36] <Takagami> heh
[19:37] <invertedtwisted> duke, any way to check if its worked without rebooting and seeing if things have changed?
[19:37] <RainCT> Hi
[19:37] <FrankQ> I am having problems with my new "Belkin" bluetooth USB adapter (F8T013xx1). I get no gnome-bluetooth anything popping up when i insert it, even though "hci dev" prints it out
[19:37] <Dextorion> hey
[19:37] <Boglizk> Where do i put my font file (.pcf) to make it show up in the Gnome-Terminal ?
[19:37] <DRebellion> !font | Boglizk
[19:37] <ubotu> Boglizk: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[19:37] <Duke_Fluke> invertedtwisted, sure just do 'cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf' and look for your changes
[19:37] <Assid> Pici: any sugestions
[19:37] <Boglizk> DRebellion: thankyou.
[19:37] <th0r> Takagami the longer you take to state the problem the less likely any of us will be paying attention.
[19:37] <DRebellion> Boglizk: no problem
[19:38] <am3r1ca> i need help with my wireless config. i have a p5b mb with internal wifi...i get a boot error thats: error inserting iwlwifi_rc80211_simple. i am constantly diconnected from the net

[19:38] <ubotu> mplayer is a media player. It resides in the mutiverse repository and can easily be installed via applications -> add/remove. For codecs try !codecs
[19:38] <DRebellion> !repeat > am3r1ca
[19:38] <invertedtwisted> brilliant, thanks a lot duke :)
[19:38] <Pici> Assid: You tried an apt-get update too?
[19:38] <tifine> how should i upgrade frm ubuntu 7.10 to ubuntu 8.04 ?
[19:38] <Assid> Pici: yes
[19:38] <Duke_Fluke> invertedtwisted, or do you mean test out the new xorg.conf? there is a way but i don't know how to do it
[19:38] <DRebellion> !hardy | tifine
[19:38] <ubotu> tifine: hardy is Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[19:38] <Takagami> I know... it is a bit lengthy... and very odd
[19:38] <RainCT> Can someone please tell me how to redirect (with iptables or whatever) all traffic that comes from a PC with IP 192.168.*.* through a determined port to a the port 3128 here  (squid)?
[19:38] <am3r1ca> DRebellion: you want me do explain?
[19:38] <Assid> Pici:  that sribus error just comes up for everything
[19:39] <Duke_Fluke> How would one test an xorg.conf without rebooting?
[19:39] <Pici> Assid: let me check something, hold on.
[19:39] <DRebellion> !iptables | RainCT
[19:39] <ubotu> RainCT: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[19:39] <Assid> dpkg: ../../src/packages.c:252: process_queue: Assertion `!queuelen' failed.
[19:39] <Pici> RainCT: #iptables exists too.
[19:39] <Assid> get that in autoremove
[19:40] <stasbull> hi how can I change layout i ubuntu 7.10?
[19:40] <dopplerdeffect> Duke_Fluke, try "apachectl restart"
[19:40] <Duke_Fluke> doppelgaenger, thx
[19:40] <FrankQ> stasbull, do you mean appeareance? Settings->Appereance
[19:40] <Assid> Pici:  can you please pm me when you get back.. this place moves too fast to track
[19:41] <Assid> secially if im watching tv
[19:41] <Duke_Fluke> invertedtwisted, did you get that?
[19:41] <dopplerdeffect> Duke_Fluke, actually, I was wrong, that's for apache. Press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[19:41] <stasbull> no I'm writing in norwegian,, but I want to write english keyboard
[19:41] <dopplerdeffect> Duke_Fluke, it will restart the xserver, but not the computer
[19:41] <Duke_Fluke> doppelgaenger, right i was wondering :) ...ok
[19:41] <FrankQ> Stasbull: then Preferences->Keyboard
[19:42] <stasbull> may I do it from console
[19:42] <TheLynx> anyone here with ubuntu on a computer with ati radeon together with a amd64 processor? need to help fixing graphics
[19:43] <DRebellion> !ask > TheLynx
[19:43] <FrankQ> I don't know about how that works, but I'm sure it's possible, stasbull
[19:43] <Takagami> Basicaly wireless won'[t communicate with the dhcp server on my belkin router...
[19:43] <FrankQ> I'm sure that a google search would aid you
[19:43] <levander> Can you not just use /etc/fstab to mount NTFS partitions with ntfs-3g?  Do you have to use that ntfs-config application to mount them?
[19:43] <DRebellion> Takagami: i get that. i fixed it by using static ip :P
[19:44] <th0r> levander I believe mounting with ntfs-3g will make the partitions read only
[19:44] <stasbull> thanks Frank I'll try and then come back !
[19:44] <_moro_bana_> how can i build debian packages from the software i have already intalled,say if i want to use them on a fresh install
[19:44] <Takagami> Yeah... I tried static DHCP but I have so many device changes that true static would not be fun
[19:44] <FrankQ> How do I change the bluetooth pin for my computer?
[19:44] <scguy318> th0r: why ro if you don't specify -o ro?
[19:45] <Takagami> i do computer repair from home, so a different machine comes through here about every 4-12 hours... static ip would be counter productive
[19:45] <levander> th0r: No, ntfs-3g is the new user space driver that works read/write.
[19:45] <Arelis> Alright guys, i'm in the ubuntu liveCD. I want to install Ubuntu on my computer but don't want to mess up my Windows install, and want to have a /home partition for convenience. Before i proceed, what should i do, besides backup? And can anybody guide me through partitioning?
[19:45] <Duke_Fluke> th0r: ntfs-3g does allow write
[19:45] <th0r> ok....my mistake

[19:46] <Kuwanger> Is there a way to export a HD over a network?
[19:46] <levander> Arelis: I had to google to find out how psychocat was.
[19:46] <levander> Kuwanger: You mean with NFS or Samba?
[19:46] <Takagami> Kuwanger: acronis has been the best software I've found for that
[19:46] <_moro_bana_> DRebellion: how can i build debian packages from the software i have already intalled,say if i want to use them on a fresh install
[19:46] <Duke_Fluke> Kuwanger: what do you mean by 'export' like allow other clients access
[19:46] <stasbull> It doesnt work...or I dont have preferences
[19:46] <Duke_Fluke> Takagami: do you mean true image?
[19:47] <DRebellion> Kuwanger: mount the external drive over sshfs or smb or whatever then use dd
[19:47] <Kuwanger> levander: Does NFS or samba allow to make a "raw" copy to preserve permissions?
[19:47] <Takagami> Duke_Fluke: Yeah... just for eas-of-use
[19:47] <Duke_Fluke> Takagami: image backup to remote server?
[19:47] <levander> Kuwanger: Do you want a backup?
[19:47] <DRebellion> Kuwanger: use dd
[19:47] <Duke_Fluke> Takagami: I love that program I don't even use ghost anymore
[19:47] <levander> Kuwanger: Or, do you want to access the drive from remote machines?
[19:47] <Kuwanger> DRebellion: Um, I don't plan to overwrite the whole HD.
[19:48] <scguy318> Kuwanger: who said he wanted you to? dd if=/dev/disk of=imagefile bs=4096?
[19:48] <Kuwanger> levander: I want to make a copy of the ubuntu on one HD on one machine (while it's not running) to another HD on another machine.
[19:48] <scguy318> Kuwanger: something like that
[19:48] <levander> Kuwanger: weird.  I'm actually trying to figure out the same.
[19:48] <Kuwanger> scguy318: Why would I use dd, then?
[19:49] <Duke_Fluke> Kuwanger: if the drives are identical sizes dd is the way
[19:49] <scguy318> Kuwanger: raw image copy?
[19:49] <levander> Kuwanger: What complicates my scenario is I want to clone my / and use it as a functioning system on the new hard disk.
[19:49] <Kuwanger> Duke_Fluke: They're not identical.
[19:49] <Kuwanger> levander: The same.
[19:49] <levander> Kuwanger: Do you just want a copy, or do you want to be able to use the new copy in a live system?
[19:49] <Kuwanger> levander: Even more complicated, the second machine doesn't have a floppy or cd-rom drive.
[19:49] <Duke_Fluke> Kuwanger: I recomend acronis true image... it allows autmatic partiion resizing

[19:50] <levander> Kuwanger: Yeah, I'm thinking about just making a copy, using tar, onto the new hard drive.  Then just boot it and fix any errors as they happen.
[19:50] <levander> Kuwanger: But, I was about to make a post on Ubuntu Forums to ask for further instructions.  I googled for about two hours learning stuff about this last night.
[19:51] <Kuwanger> Duke_Fluke: Does acronis work with LVM2?
[19:52] <levander> Kuwanger: pm me your email address and i'll send you an email after I make a post
[19:52] <unagi> how do i make an iso archive
[19:52] <Duke_Fluke> Kuwanger: not sure but since it is linux based i would hope so
[19:52] <Kuwanger> unagi: mkiso?
[19:53] <Kuwanger> Duke_Fluke: Does it work over pxe?
[19:53] <askand> what is the command for running glipper from a terminal? :S

[19:54] <xamox> what image converting software do you guys recommend? I want to batch convert images
[19:54] <unagi> Kuwanger: whats the modifier for input file
[19:54] <unagi> mkisofs dirname -o fl.iso?
[19:54] <Duke_Fluke> Kuwanger not sure...but couldn't you just put the drives into the same machine temporarily?
[19:54] <JamoSmith> I've finally got 1680x1050 to work with my new monitor. however, now the horizontal width is too large (the left side and right side of the screen is overruning the width of the monitor), any ideas how I can troubleshoot this?
[19:55] <Stapol> Hi.
[19:55] <Adlai> JamoSmith: bigger monitor?
[19:55] <unagi> !makeisofs
[19:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about makeisofs - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[19:55] <unagi> !info makeisofs
[19:56] <JamoSmith> Adlai: yeah this is a big monitor, 22" widescreen
[19:56] <Pici> unagi: check the manpage.
[19:56] <bkar> unagi-> man mkisofs

[19:56] <bkar> Stapol-> gksudo
[19:57] <Jockeo> JamoSmith: Seems like the resolution you have applied isn't supported by the monitor and/or the graphics card.
[19:57] <Stapol> bkar: Im just trying to install flash to Opera.
[19:57] <Stapol> bkar: And copy paste the plugin to there.
[19:57] <Pici> Stapol: then use gksudo nautilus.
[19:57] <kebinusan> can anyone recommend a good video editing suite for linux
[19:57] <bkar> Stapol if things dont work with gui, try the command line
[19:57] <JamoSmith> Jockeo, it's native for the monitor. The Graphics card was succesfully auto detected. Maybe I should install the latest driver. I'll try that now
[19:57] <Stapol> bkar: Thank you
[19:58] <Stapol> bkar: What's the difference between sudo and gksudo
[19:58] <Duke_Fluke> Humanzy: Bad day how can I help you? :)
[19:58] <bkar> Stapol-> one has graphics
[19:58] <Brandon__> how do I see all users again for ubuntu?
[19:58] <bkar> who
[19:58] <lod_> cat /etc/passwd
[19:59] <Jockeo> JamoSmith: ok I guess it's supported by the monitor then, but is it supported by the graphics card? Have you tried 1900x1200? Yes you could also try installing the latest driver.
[19:59] <unagi> i dont get it
[19:59] <unagi> im getting an invalid node
[19:59] <DRebellion> unagi: erm... what exactly are you trying to do? what is your error message?
[19:59] <unagi> im just trying to make an iso out of a file or dir

[20:00] <unagi> ive already tried that
[20:00] <JamoSmith> Jockeo, you're right. the radeon 9600 page at amd.com doesn't list it as a supported resolution :(
[20:00] <Pici> !msgthebot
[20:00] <unagi> looked at the man
[20:00] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (type also /msg ubotu Bot). Don't use commands in the public channels if you don't know if they really exist. Also avoid adding joke/useless factoids.
[20:00] <unagi> and everything else
[20:00] <DRebellion> unagi: are you sure you're specifying the options right?
[20:00] <unagi> i dont know
[20:00] <unagi> man pages never make sense to me
[20:01] <DRebellion> unagi: so you never read the instruction manual?
[20:01] <unagi> thats not what i said
[20:01] <Jockeo> JamoSmith: That might be the reason then. Did you try 1900x1200? I think that's often supported.
[20:01] <unagi> i said man pages never make sense to me so even though i read it i still dont know if im specifying the right options
[20:01] <unagi> mkisofs -o fl.iso pathspec setup.exe
[20:01] <JamoSmith> Jockeo, I'm pretty slow with ubuntu. it'll take me a bit to figure out how to try that
[20:02] <DRebellion> unagi: i don't have mkisofs installed so i can't read the man for you, sorry
[20:02] <Duke_Fluke> unagi and pathspec is in your current dir? try specifying the absolute path maybe
[20:02] <bkar> unagi you have to use  dd first then mkisofs of said file
[20:02] <white_eagle> my computer never did that, but when I run Stellarium, my computer just logs off and I have to log back in

[20:03] <unagi> whther i do specific path or not it still says invalid node Duke_Fluke

[20:03] <white_eagle> my computer never did that, but when I run Stellarium, my computer just logs off and I have to log back in, the same with google earth
[20:03] <abuyazan> hello
[20:03] <bkar> unagi plenty of tutorials on google.have you tried?
[20:03] <Jockeo> JamoSmith: No problem. By the way, I meant 1920x1200 (not 1900x1200). If you didn't already know, you change the resolution easily by clicking the "System" menu, then "Preferences" -> "Screen resolution".
[20:03] <kebert> scguy318: Where at ?
