[04:38] <Starnestommy> Ochatach: you might need to use zChris's approach to that
[04:38] <joanki> can anyone recommend a great flashcard program
[04:38] <zChris> Mikey: :) its not a good or bad thing :)
[04:38] <Some_Person> lemsx1: how long have you been using ubuntu?
[04:38] <Ochatach> and i don't know how to
[04:38] <evilbug> thiebaude- yup.i mean everything works fine except for video playback.the resolution is at it's max.
[04:38] <lemsx1> Devis: VB as in Visual Basic ??
[04:38] <tmapj> emma you still there?
[04:38] <techno_freak> j1solutions, certs can only tell you how it should be done and assume you learnt it, but only doing it can make you really learn (as well as how not to do it)
[04:38] <evilbug> thiebaude- and my suspect is the refresh rate.
[04:38] <lemsx1> Some_Person: forever ;-)
[04:38] <usser> Devis, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox
[04:38] <Devis> virtualbox
[04:39] <j1solutions> agreed techno. are you a linux professional?
[04:39] <Newb> guys, how do I install a .deb file? I got opera binary as .deb... im guessing thats ok for ubuntu?
[04:39] <sensae> zChris: I think I found my problem
[04:39] <Uinluan> ok I did that
[04:39] <Some_Person> lemsx1: since warty you mean?
[04:39] <Ochatach> Starnestommy i dont know how to even do that
[04:39] <thiebaude> evilbug:yea,its low, mine is set to 85
[04:39] <zChris> sensae: what was it ?
[04:39] <Starnestommy> Newb: sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
[04:39] <usser> Newb, sudo dpkg -i debifle.de
[04:39] <Starnestommy> Ochatach: neither do I
[04:39] <Virtue> zChris, do you know any mp3 player? cause I don't see winamp in packages... Would appreciate your help much, as always :P
[04:39] <evilbug> thiebaude- how can i change it?
[04:39] <Konam> there isn't a /etc/rc.conf file in ubuntu 8.04, which is the replacement or can I create it with no problems?
[04:39] <DShepherd> Newb, double click it
[04:39] <sensae> zChris: A bug report says NFS implementation in Hardy won't properly show permission denied, instead it makes it look like a timeout
[04:39] <Ochatach> :(
[04:39] <thiebaude> evilbug:i have intel 815
[04:39] <Mikey> zChris, if i install ubuntu as os, boot will ask me to choose either to execute xp or ubuntu, correct?
[04:39] <techno_freak> j1solutions, i am not sure what 'professional means' but been using only GNU/Linux for past 9 years and Ubuntu from 2005
[04:39] <Devis> so will that tutorial work even though im on hardy heron?
[04:39] <sensae> zChris: Problem is, my setup looks fine :/
[04:39] <zChris> Virtue: audicious or  rythmbox that is included in hardy :)
[04:39] <evilbug> thiebaude- i have a nvidia geforce 4 mx.
[04:39] <DShepherd> Devis, it should. give it a try
[04:39] <usser> !amarok | Virtue
[04:39] <Starnestommy> Devis: I think the 7.10 instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox work on 8.04
[04:39] <Vicfred> hi, there's a folder on the trash can i can't delete it says i don't have the permission, how do i delete it from the terminal?
[04:40] <zChris> Mikey: probably
[04:40] <lemsx1> Some_Person: well, i was part of debian-desktop... so we've been trying to get a debian-based desktop up and running for years
[04:40] <zChris> sensae: :S sneaky, can be 2 problems then :P
[04:40] <lemsx1> Some_Person: well before Ubuntu came
[04:40] <thiebaude> evilbug:goto screen resolution
[04:40] <zChris> Virtue: sudo rm
[04:40] <Devis> anyone have a toshiba satellite Sa135-4666. I cant get the headphone jack to work :(
[04:40] <Mikey> zChris: oh... erm..
[04:40] <j1solutions> i started using linux 9 years ago, but became an NT admin since then.  using ubuntu since 2005, now no windows boxes at my house
[04:40] <zChris> Mikey: :)
[04:40] <evilbug> thiebaude- it's only showing 50hz.what next?
[04:40] <thiebaude> evilbug:do you have 8.04?
[04:40] <Some_Person> lemsx1: oh, ok. i started using linux (and ubuntu) with breezy. was inexperienced and in 6th grade at the time
[04:40] <techno_freak> j1solutions, am afraid you dont need a cert then ;)
[04:40] <Virtue> missing operand
[04:40] <evilbug> thiebaude- 7.10
[04:40] <lemsx1> sensae: is this NFSv4 ?
[04:40] <lopin> Hey guys.  I just wrote a lovely script to start up a shoutcast server on startup, however, when it runs, it starts writing output to the screen, and stalls the rest of the startup, even though I configured it not to.  Any help?
[04:40] <stoneDJay> What should I do to get ACPI working well with cpu fan?  Its not scaling... and sometimes simply turns off, causing an overheating...
[04:41] <Mikey> zChris, the boot thing scares me lol
[04:41] <evilbug> thiebaude- i had even more issues with 8.04.
[04:41] <Newb> usser: and starnestommy thanks, but how do I open a consol for sudo dpkg -i filename.deb... im a newb
[04:41] <Uinluan> so does anyone know if there is an easy quick fix for the sound on the 24" aluminum iMac that I haven't come across
[04:41] <Virtue> usser, thanks, I'll check it right away :]
[04:41] <j1solutions> probably not, techno.  you're right. instead of studying for some test i should do something else in my 'lab'
[04:41] <zChris> Mikey: why? backup the things you really need
[04:41] <Starnestommy> Newb: applications > accessories > terminal
[04:41] <Newb> thanks
[04:41] <jdrake> What package contains docs on functions such as atoi?
[04:41] <thiebaude> evilbug:wow, im stumped on that one, i wish i knew the answer
[04:41] <lemsx1> lopin: how about using > /dev/null 2>&1 ?
[04:41] <j1solutions> techno, what do you do for  living?
[04:42] <DShepherd> Newb, why dont you just double click the deb?
[04:42] <mavsman4457> Hey I've got a quick question, is it possible to install ubuntu on an SD card?
[04:42] <evilbug> thiebaude- thanks for trying.
[04:42] <zChris> !ot | j1solutions
[04:42] <sensae> lemsxl: It's the client, and doesn't say which version with a dpkg -l
[04:42] <thiebaude> evilbug:yw
[04:42] <evilbug> can anyone help me change the refresh rate in 7.10?
[04:42] <j1solutions> mavsman4457:  FIOS?  I'm envious
[04:42] <emma> tmapj, we did get it working though right?
[04:42] <chubaca> Newb: you can actually double click the .deb file and the program will install
[04:42] <Some_Person> evilbug: nvidia?
[04:42] <lemsx1> sensae: rpcinfo -p server
[04:42] <lopin> lemsx1, Thanks...  I remember doing that at one point with something, and i figure there's some reason that I just wrote this script, but I don't quite remember. If it doesn't work, I'll be back.  Thanks!  ^.^
[04:42] <tmapj> yes emma
[04:42] <j1solutions> thanks for the reminder zChris
[04:43] <zChris> j1solutions: yw :)
[04:43] <Newb> starnestommy: will sudo dpkg -i filename.deb recognize if the file is in a certain folder?
[04:43] <lemsx1> sensae: that will tell you what the server supports... showmount -e server <-- will show the mounts, if you use the full path, you are on NFSv3
[04:43] <soulreape1> dose programs for ubuntu 7.10 works for 8.04 ???
[04:43] <emma> tmapj, I think that's the best I can do for you. You might want to check in #vlc or #mplayer for app specific questions that might make things easier for you.
[04:43] <Starnestommy> soulreape1: most do
[04:43] <evilbug> Some_Person- nvidia geforce 4 mx with a CRT which works at 60hz (i think) in windows but only at 50hz in ubuntu.everything is fine except for video playback.and yes,i have the restricted driver installed.
[04:43] <sensae> lemsxl: Server is unknown host. FYI, this system doesn't have an NFS server installed
[04:43] <Starnestommy> Newb: you would need to cd to that folder first or replace filename.deb with the full path to it
[04:43] <Some_Person> evilbug: woah, you should be using 80hz, by the way, not 60
[04:44] <tmapj> ok thanks emma
[04:44] <Some_Person> evilbug: anyway, do "sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings"
[04:44] <stoneDJay> What should I do to get ACPI working well with cpu fan?  Its not scaling... and sometimes simply turns off, causing an overheating...
[04:44] <emma> tmapj, yw
[04:44] <Newb> some_person: I have some p[roblem as evil bug, only getting around 50 hz :( withs ame card
[04:44] <lemsx1> soulreape1: programs should work fine on a newer version of any Linux OS... however, sometimes API/ABI changes break things. so you might get ocassional segfaults and calls to functions that are deprecated
[04:44] <Some_Person> Newb: do "sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings" in a terminal
[04:44] <usser> evilbug, do u have an lcd monitor?
[04:45] <sensae> lemsxl: The server is running FreeBSD. The bug is in Hardy.
[04:45] <lemsx1> sensae: i meant for you to replace "server" with the hostname of the box you are trying (or its IP)
[04:45] <Mikey> zChris, i still remember someone recommending me some alternatives to ubuntu, namely opensuse and fedora. they look alike, are they just different in appearance? lol
[04:45] <evilbug> usser- no,CRT.
[04:45] <zChris> sensae: lies lies!! :)
[04:45] <evilbug> Some_Person- now what?
[04:45] <Some_Person> evilbug: now, type "nvidia-settings" in the terminal
[04:45] <chubaca> does anyone know how to get the  graphics card working  in a thinkpad t41? I can't  switch to the extra option in visual effects
[04:45] <zChris> Mikey: yeah and how things are getting done and such
[04:45] <soulreape1> so if i take a tutorial for aircrack for ubuntu 7.10 and try it on my 8.04 it should work right?
[04:45] <lemsx1> sensae: ok
[04:45] <Some_Person> evilbug: and you should have options for screen res
[04:45] <mavsman4457> jlsolutions, how did you know i have FIOS?
[04:45] <usser> evilbug, ah bummer
[04:45] <Some_Person> evilbug: i recommend you use 80-85 hz
[04:46] <j1solutions> mavsman4457: your IP address, hostname info shows up when you log in (i am from Dedham Ma)
[04:46] <sensae> zChris: Okay, what about the output?
[04:46] <zChris> sensae: just joking with ya mate :)
[04:46] <Kleedrac_> Is there any way to install Windows into a file and boot said file via Grub?
[04:46] <sensae> zChris: lol sorry wrong person
[04:47] <mavsman4457> jlsolutions, ah i gotcha, wait, so do you know where i'm from by my ip address?
[04:47] <lemsx1> Kleedrac_: that can be done via a virtual machine
[04:47] <sensae> lemsx1: What about the output?
[04:47] <Kleedrac_> lemsx1: True but a VM doesn't support 3D acceleration which I require for this purpose :P
[04:47] <lemsx1> sensae: it's in /dev/null ;-) (blackhole)
[04:47] <j1solutions> mavsman4457:  the hostname said something like bstnma.fios
[04:47] <ttmontoya> #vlc
[04:47] <Kleedrac_> And I just got Ubuntu 8.04 set up how I like so I'm loathe to repartition and install :P
[04:47] <lemsx1> Kleedrac_: vmware ?
[04:47] <ttmontoya> e
[04:47] <ttmontoya> efffwf
[04:47] <Kleedrac_> lemsx1: vmware supports 3D acceleration?
[04:47] <Some_Person> evilbug: is it working?
[04:48] <sensae> lemsx1: No, I mean rpcinfo -p <IP_ADDRESS> gives me a list. What about it?
[04:48] <lemsx1> Kleedrac_: i've never actually use it, but it should
[04:48] <evilbug> Some_Person- it's only giving me the option of 60hz
[04:48] <TeddyBearBoy22> zChris, i still remember someone recommending me some alternatives to ubuntu, namely opensuse and fedora. they look alike, are they just different in appearance? lol
[04:48] <lemsx1> sensae: tht tells you if nfs4 is supported
[04:48] <Some_Person> evilbug: could i see a screenshot?
[04:48] <mavsman4457> jlsolutions, ahh i got it well i live about 15 minutes away from dedham but does anyone know how to or if it's possible to install ubuntu n an SD card?
[04:48] <lemsx1> sensae: plus other stuff
[04:48] <zChris> TeddyBearBoy22: lol mike? :På
[04:48] <TeddyBearBoy22> oh god wait
[04:48] <sensae> lemsx1:     100000    4   tcp    111  portmapper
[04:48] <Starnestommy> TeddyBearBoy22: they are a lot different
[04:48] <stoneDJay> What should I do to get ACPI working well with cpu fan?  Its not scaling... and sometimes simply turns off, causing an overheating...
[04:49] <Newb> Some_Person:sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings gives my an error that I cant opena  lock to /var/lib/dpkg/lock open
[04:49] <usser> TeddyBearBoy22, oh yea, you dont want touch a distribution that uses rpm with a 10 foot stick and both suse and fedora use rpm based package management
[04:49] <Starnestommy> er, a lot more different
[04:49] <zChris> Mikey1: akwaaaard :D
[04:49] <Mikey1> zChris: lol :p
[04:49] <evilbug> Some_Person- well,it's only giving me "Auto" or "60Hz" in the dropdown menu.
[04:49] <Some_Person> Newb: close Synaptic if you have it open
[04:49] <Devis> no it didnt work... I cant connect to the internet when running XP on virtualbox. :(
[04:49] <lemsx1> sensae:     100003    4   tcp   2049  nfs
[04:49] <Some_Person> Newb: or Add/Remove Programs
[04:49] <sensae> lemsx1: Sorry, the 4 is under version tab
[04:49] <j1solutions> usser: yep, i started on redhat,  rpm is not as good as deb, for sure
[04:49] <zChris> Mikey1: im roftl irl :D
[04:49] <Mikey1> :p
[04:49] <lemsx1> sensae: you need the last item in the list (nfs)
[04:49] <Some_Person> evilbug: in nvidia settings, correct?
[04:49] <Kohlrak> seems that i've narrowed my javascript problem to one site... this page works in windows (firefox), but not in hardy (firefox)
[04:50] <sensae> lemsx1: Mountd is in the list, but not nfs
[04:50] <zChris> Mikey1: hows it going ? :)
[04:50] <evilbug> Some_Person- no,"x server display configuration"
[04:50] <usser> j1solutions, yep and suse's yast package manager is a mess, the only good thing about rpms is incremental upgrade
[04:50] <usser> s
[04:50] <lemsx1> sensae: now that's wierd ;-) could that be that you're using a user-space NFS server?
[04:50] <Mikey1> zChris: good i think lol amused by myself lol
[04:50] <evilbug> Some_Person- there's no res option under nvidia-setting Configuration.
[04:50] <zChris> Mikey1: haha ^^
[04:50] <Some_Person> evilbug: there is
[04:50] <lemsx1> sensae: i'm not sure about freebsd... but in Linux you can use user- or kernel- NFS server
[04:51] <lemsx1> evilbug: yes tehre is
[04:51] <evilbug> Some_Person- no,it only has 5 check boxes.
[04:51] <sensae> lemsx1: Almost certain it's kernel
[04:51] <lemsx1> evilbug: choose from left-hand-side your GPU
[04:51] <lemsx1> sensae: then why it's portmap not showing nfs are one of the services provided??
[04:51] <Newb> Some_Person: ok its dloading, will proper settings speed up the window management?
[04:51] <lemsx1> sensae: something is wrong
[04:51] <Mikey1> ih back to the question
[04:51] <Mikey1> zChris, i still remember someone recommending me some alternatives to ubuntu, namely opensuse and fedora. they look alike, are they just different in appearance? lol
[04:51] <Some_Person> Newb, possibly
[04:52] <lopin> lemsx1,  Thanks.  That worked on the output, and putting a & at the end made sure that other programs could run too...
[04:52] <evilbug> lemsx1- and now what,all it's showing me is gpu info,nothing to select or change.
[04:52] <zChris> Mikey1: yeah pretty much
[04:52] <Khisanth> not really, if you use the same WM and themes they should look the same
[04:52] <Newb> Some_Person: so after its setup what do I do?
[04:52] <Mikey1> zChris: just drop the 1 :p
[04:52] <Some_Person> Newb: type nvidia-settings in the terminal
[04:52] <stoneDJay> What should I do to get ACPI working well with cpu fan?  Its not scaling... and sometimes simply turns off, causing an overheating...
[04:52] <zChris> Mikey1: i use tab completion :)
[04:53] <Some_Person> Newb: go to "X Server Display Configuration", then change the screen res
[04:53] <usser> Mikey1, oh yea, you dont want touch a distribution that uses rpm with a 10 foot stick and both suse and fedora use rpm based package management
[04:53] <lemsx1> sensae: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10867
[04:53] <Some_Person> evilbug: do you see this: http://img178.imageshack.us/img178/8531/screenshotdq2.png
[04:53] <Mikey1> zChris: oh ok lol
[04:53] <zChris> usser: how come ?
[04:54] <Mikey1> usser: in layman's term? lol it consumes more power? or slows down the processor?
[04:54] <Brent^> is it possible to get Ubuntu (or Xubuntu for that matter (even the server version)) running on my old N64? that would make a nice server :)
[04:54] <evilbug> Some_Person- yes,and in the drop down menu by the res it's only giving me "Auto" or "60 Hz"
[04:54] <zChris> Brent^: nintendo 64? :S
[04:54] <Some_Person> evilbug: oh, that is very strange
[04:54] <Brent^> yes
[04:54] <usser> zChris, somehow rpm repos seem slower and interrupted download/install can completely wreck your package manager
[04:54] <zChris> usser: weird :S
[04:54] <j1solutions> Brent^: what are you going to serve on it?
[04:54] <chubaca> does anyone know how to get the  graphics card working  in a thinkpad t41? I can't  switch to the extra option in visual effects
[04:55] <drivetrax> I have a c-64, will ubuntu work?
[04:55] <lemsx1> Brent^: if you actually meant "nintendo" please let me know when you get this to work... i'd like to run mythtv from my nintendo 64 :-P
[04:55] <zcat[1]> hmmm.. I used to run redhat and never had any major issues.. can't speak for fedora tho
[04:55] <zChris> drivetrax: no but Lunix will :)
[04:55] <drivetrax> ahahaha
[04:55] <lemsx1> Lunix ??
[04:55] <zcat[1]> lunix is a unix-like OS for the C64
[04:55] <Brent^> jlsolutions: LAMP server I suppose...
[04:55] <lemsx1> ah, good to know
[04:55] <lemsx1> C64 != N64 . right ?
[04:55] <Khisanth> there is a higher chance of getting it working on a C64 than a n64 :)
[04:55] <zChris> lemsx1: yes
[04:56] <Brent^> right
[04:56] <drivetrax> commodore64
[04:56] <zcat[1]> funny how many ppl know about it who likely never even owned a c64
[04:56] <Mikey1> zChris, btw im downloading the x64 version, and my laptop is running on amd turion 64x2, is that ok? or i shouldve downloaded the other normal version?
[04:56] <soulreape1> any one wanna help me install aircrack?
[04:56] <|thunder> just installed hardy, how do I configure pulse audio ?
[04:56] <usser> Mikey1, general experience will probably be almost the same its just there are annoying little things like waiting for 5 minutes for package manager to get going its really frustrating sometimes
[04:56] <zChris> Mikey1: hmm, i personally prefer the 32 one.. hmm this one you have to ask other ppl about :)
[04:56] <lemsx1> |thunder: no need
[04:57] <zcat[1]> since hardy, I now recommend 64bit. Stuff like codecs and flash WORK!!
[04:57] <Brent^> my friend: "dude you could probly run the 64bit ubuntu on your Nintendo 64, cause thats what the 64 in the name means"
[04:57] <Mikey1> everyone: im downloading the x64 version, and my laptop is running on amd turion 64x2, is that ok? or i shouldve downloaded the other normal version?
[04:57] <lemsx1> jthunder: System -> Administration -> Hardware Testing
[04:57] <zChris> Brent^: xD
[04:57] <usser> Mikey1, 64 bit is not as trivial to setup, there's no easy way to have java plugin for instance
[04:57] <|thunder> lemsx1; how do I configure which streams goto which output and setup the pulse audio server ?
[04:57] <Some_Person> evilbug: how old is your card?
[04:57] <lemsx1> Mikey1: that should be fine. but what's the point if you don't have 4GB of RAM ?
[04:57] <mavsman4457> Will Ubuntu on an SD card run as fast as it would on an SSD?
[04:58] <zcat[1]> usser: bollox. install java package. java works.
[04:58] <earthling> Mikey1: 64 bit is prefered for amd64
[04:58] <usser> zcat[1], and jre plugin in firefox?
[04:58] <|thunder> how do I configure pulse audio server ?
[04:58] <usser> zcat[1], dont think so
[04:58] <lemsx1> |thunder: gstreamer-properties
[04:58] <sensae> lemsxl: It does not look like that. Also, I don't believe NFS is in the kernel as apparently there's an nfsd
[04:58] <zcat[1]> I'm running 64bit here, I have codecs, java, flash... never had to do anything slightly difficult to get them working.
[04:58] <evilbug> Some_Person- 3-4 years.
[04:59] <Mikey1> 4GB of RAM?! Mine is only 1GB :( and the download is almost done, downloading a normal version will take another long time lol
[04:59] <Some_Person> evilbug: i've never heard of nvidia-settings only giving Auto and 60hz
[04:59] <stoneDJay> What should I do to get ACPI working well with cpu fan?  Its not scaling... and sometimes simply turns off, causing an overheating...
[04:59] <sensae> lemsx1: Also, ps aux | grep nfs shows it's running
[04:59] <zChris> is ther a an option for disabling showing joins and parts/quits in irssi?
[04:59] <ridge-meister> what is the best emulator to get for arcade roms?  I have been playing with xmame, and frankly most of the rom's on a certain site just suck.
[05:00] <pete1020> Hi, what is a good application to use for iPod?
[05:00] <lunchbox330> okay, i'm having ktorrent problems

[05:00] <lunchbox330> all uploads stop after about 30 seconds
[05:00] <sensae> pete1020: I'm fond of Amarok
[05:00] <ridge-meister> there are some arcade games, in addition to games like Bases Loaded (original and version II) that don't seem to be available
[05:00] <lemsx1> sensae: i've seen more NFS issues than you can imagine (or i can tell you on this room). kernel NFS thread crashes sometimes and this produces all kinds of issues... I'm not sure if this is why you are seeing this problem on FreeBSD. . . and since this is an Ubuntu channel. you might want to ask for that in #ubuntu-offtopic or ubuntu-users mailing list
[05:00] <kindofabuzz> pete1020: rockbox

[05:01] <Brent^> are there any applications to get microsoft Zune to sync with some Ubuntu music player?
[05:01] <pete1020> sensae: I'm using the gnome desktop - anything for gnome desktop?
[05:01] <Brent^> theshadow: apache2ctl restart
[05:01] <Newb> evilbug:are you using a standard crt?
[05:01] <Some_Person> evilbug: can i see your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:01] <theshadow> Brent^: when did they change to using that script?
[05:01] <ridge-meister> anyone know what might be causing my printer (Brother MFC-7220) to no longer be able to print anything?  I'm sure I didn't change anything in the way of drivers, i rarely do anything as root......the other day i was able to print fine, now the print jobs just "run" and disappear...printer does nothing
[05:02] <Newb> evilbug: like not widescreen?
[05:02] <pete1020> kindofabuzz: does rockbox work well in gnome?
[05:02] <sensae> pete1020: You can still install Amarok - I'm on GNOME
[05:02] <evilbug> Newb- yes.
[05:02] <evilbug> Some_Person- one sec...
[05:02] <Brent^> theshadow: I have no idea but hey it works
[05:02] <sensae> pete1020: Rockbox is a replacement firmware you install ON your ipod
[05:02] <Newb> evilbug: lower the resolution
[05:02] <ridge-meister> i'm about to install XP on a new partition so that at least my printers will work and I can play some games :D
[05:02] <drivetrax> mang.. whas up
[05:02] <evilbug> Newb- i want it 1280x1024
[05:02] <kindofabuzz> pete1020: i spoke too soon, you're looking for an app, rockbox is an open sourc firmware replacement
[05:02] <j1solutions> ridge-meister: don't do that
[05:02] <Newb> evilbug: it had higher refresha t that res before?
[05:03] <pete1020> sensae: I have had some unusual issues with amarok, are there any codecs that you downloaded?
[05:03] <lunchbox330> if you have 3rd gen though it doesn't work
[05:03] <pete1020> kindofabuzz: ok thanks, I will have to look into it
[05:03] <ridge-meister> j1solutions: don't do what?
[05:03] <jgoo> hey guys, I am setting up an ubuntu server (6.04) when it was imaged, it only had root. I've created the user and set the bash and home directory, but since I mkdir'd that directory from root, it doesn't have permission
[05:03] <sensae> pete1020: So far it's just working
[05:03] <j1solutions> ridge-meister: install XP
[05:03] <evilbug> Newb- i've always had this issue with ubuntu and that's what i'm blaming it on since i'm using the same res in windows and i have no issue at all.
[05:03] <zChris> jgoo: man chown and chgrp
[05:03] <ridge-meister> j1solutions: got a better solution? :)
[05:03] <lunchbox330> any idea why nine out of ten torrent for linux programs never work?
[05:04] <Newb> evilbug: ok nvm then
[05:04] <Mikey1> zChris: im almost done downloading ubuntu, can i install wubi now? ;)
[05:04] <Virtue> zChris, how do I edit Bash ?
[05:04] <kindofabuzz> lunchbox330: they all work
[05:04] <lunchbox330> i've had very bad luck with torrents and linux
[05:04] <zChris> Virtue: you mean the config file for bash?
[05:04] <jgoo> zChris, ok, I was about to try that, I just wanted to be sure that home directories weren't special in any way :) thanks
[05:04] <j1solutions> did your printer ever work with linux?
[05:04] <earthling> sensae: does rockbox support 6th gen ipod?
[05:04] <Virtue> zChris, I guess so, where is it located? bin ?
[05:04] <zChris> Mikey1: Wubi uses that iso file :P
[05:04] <sensae> lemsx1: Would you mind trying to help me in PM? I've gotten farther
[05:04] <ushimitsudoki> lunchbox330: i use deluge a lot and like it
[05:04] <Newb> some_person: thanks for your help with the nvidia card
[05:04] <pete1020> sensae: I have been using exaile for the most part, but it seems like it is slightly limited
[05:04] <ridge-meister> j1solutions: guess i wasn't clear enough...the other day i printed fine in linux with the printer
[05:04] <zChris> Virtue: its in ~/.bashrc
[05:04] <sensae> earthling: No clue. I've used it on my 5.5gen
[05:04] <ronnyr> Hey, I am encountering problems with X-Forwarding. Could someone help me?
[05:04] <kindofabuzz> lunchbox330: i've had success with ktorrent, transmission, deluge, utorrent under wine, and several others
[05:04] <Some_Person> Newb: is yours working right now?
[05:04] <Mikey1> zChris: oh ok got the point lol now it makes sense to me lmao!
[05:04] <lunchbox330> deluge can't remember my ratios
[05:05] <earthling> sensae: k
[05:05] <zChris> Mikey1: :P
[05:05] <emma> ronnyr, what specifically is your problem?
[05:05] <evilbug> Some_Person- http://s59.photobucket.com/albums/g289/snarekrazee/?action=view&current=Screenshot-xorgconf-etc-X11-gedit.png
[05:05] <j1solutions> ridge-meister: then i'd work on fixing that.  and there are some great 3d games for linux. Try Nexuiz
[05:05] <lemsx1> ronnyr: X11 forwarding ?
[05:05] <ronnyr> Xes.
[05:05] <ronnyr> Yes.
[05:05] <kindofabuzz> lunchbox330: that's a know problem with Deluge, it's been fixed in recent releases, upgrade your deluge
[05:05] <lemsx1> sensae: sure. PM me
[05:05] <Finnish> I'm having problems with python script, it tells me about UnicodeDecodeError
[05:05] <lunchbox330> why isn't it downstream yet then?
[05:05] <kindofabuzz> lunchbox330: check out the deluge site and forums
[05:06] <Virtue> zChris, when I type /etc/bash.bashrc it says "permission denied", although I'm logged in root
[05:06] <Brent^> someone tell me if this was a bad idea: I mounted the iso for Ubuntu HH using Daemon Tools on vista and installed through Wubi like that because I couldn't find a CD.
[05:06] <kindofabuzz> lunchbox330: just because something comes out doesn't mean it always makes it to the ubuntu repos right away
[05:06] <zChris> Virtue: its in your home directory :)
[05:06] <ridge-meister> j1solutions: i've already tried "working on" getting the printer to work again in linux...that's why i am now in here...complete noob here, i couldn't find anything in the way of google to help me
[05:06] <lemsx1> Virtue:  you are kidding right?
[05:06] <Newb> Some_Person: Yeah, but im using a diff resolution than evil
[05:06] <Some_Person> evilbug: can you copy and paste it to http://paste.ubuntu.com ?
[05:06] <Virtue> lemsx1,  ?
[05:06] <j1solutions> ridge-meister: what is the printer model?
[05:07] <kindofabuzz> lunchbox330: there is a .deb on the deluge site, unintall your older one first
[05:07] <Some_Person> Newb: you're welcome then
[05:07] <usser> Brent^, no i dont think it matters, as long as the installation went fine you should be ok
[05:07] <ridge-meister> j1solutions: it's a Brother MFC-7220
[05:07] <lemsx1> Virtue: logged in as root and typing random stuff?
[05:07] <drivetrax> Brent^,  Unetbootin was available to use.. all along
[05:07] <evilbug> Some_Person- too small?
[05:07] <ronnyr> I m on a mac machine. I ssh to my server using -X attribute. Then, if I try to start wmaker, it doesn't work... It says "Dplay "" couldn't be opened.
[05:07] <Virtue> lemsx1, yea
[05:07] <zChris> lemsx1: be gently
[05:07] <Virtue> :]
[05:07] <Some_Person> evilbug: i need to see the whole file
[05:07] <lemsx1> zChris: sure...
[05:07] <lunchbox330> kindofabuzz, ill try it then. thx
[05:07] <stoneDJay> What should I do to get ACPI working well with cpu fan?  Its not scaling... and sometimes simply turns off, causing an overheating...
[05:07] <agro1986> help: after installing modem driver, sound test fails with message: "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument". any hints?
[05:08] <Brent^> usser: It froze up and I had to restart doing a 6 second shutdown
[05:08] <tras1> hey, is there a shell command that makes me log out of gnome? it doesnt respond on the buttons atm
[05:08] <Newb> im using xfce right now with xubuntu, if I get fluxbox would the layout of things/button locations stay the same?
[05:08] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart, on the server, then try to connect again, of kdm is using kde
[05:08] <Brent^> drivetrax: thanks I'll keep that in mind for future use
[05:08] <Mikey> finally! lol
[05:08] <irasnyd> hello. Can someone tell me which packages (not toolchain, kernel sources) I need to install to rebuild the default ubuntu kernel (I want to build an exact copy, if possible)
[05:08] <agro1986> tras1: CTRL+ALT+backspace
[05:08] <Some_Person> evilbug: hang on, which screen res did you say you were using?
[05:08] <drivetrax> brent113,  -- network install, parts & formats
[05:08] <usser> Brent^, hm, why dont u burn the cd i think daemon tools allows converting to iso or burning directly
[05:08] <emma> tras1 and others -- doing that will restart X and any programs you are running in X will be lost.
[05:08] <lemsx1> is there any place i can go to read the "ERRATA" (or things that do not work well) under Ubuntu amd64 ?
[05:09] <drivetrax> er, Brent^
[05:09] <kindofabuzz> irasnyd: google rebuild ubuntu kernel, plenty of guides
[05:09] <evilbug> Some_Person- 1280x1024
[05:09] <lunchbox330> ktorrent broke my last computer, corrupted my file system, i eventually had to fsck it about 25 times before i gave up
[05:09] <jgoo> zChris, works a charm. I just setup my .bashrc (erm, copied my 8.04 and pasted to the 6.04) but my /bashrc isn't executed when I login....I had to source.bashrc
[05:09] <Virkoff> hi guys, this is my problem: i have installed libdvdcss2 pkg and i can't play any comercial dvd... with any player (vlc, xine, totem, mplayer, etc) any idea??
[05:09] <dlx_> haha!
[05:09] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: I guess xdm is my standard window manager. What would be then the command to restart it ?
[05:09] <evilbug> Some_Person- should i put it as "1280x1024_80" or something like that?
[05:09] <zChris> jgoo: hmm ?
[05:09] <j1solutions> ridge-meister: what is you email address?
[05:09] <Brent^> usser: I lack a CD
[05:09] <Some_Person> evilbug: must be a big monitor.... but anyway, have you been able to get that screen res on other OS's?
[05:09] <joetheodd> Is it safe to use "proposed updates" in a production environment? I'd consider myself a power-user by far, though
[05:09] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: what are you running?
[05:09] <emma> Virkoff, try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[05:09] <evilbug> Some_Person- yes,and it's only a 15" 4:3 crt.
[05:10] <Some_Person> evilbug: i mean refresh rate, sorry, have you been able to get it on other OS's
[05:10] <Virkoff> emm is done...
[05:10] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: distrib?
[05:10] <Virkoff> emma: is done...
[05:10] <jgoo> zChris, I made my username permission (just chown, haven't setup groups...) for my home, I added a bashrc, I relogged in but, the ll alias for instance didn't work, only after trying source .bashrc
[05:10] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: gnome? kde? xfce?
[05:10] <tras1> thanks for the reminder :)
[05:10] <Some_Person> evilbug: woah, 1280x1024 on a 15"? The standard res for 15" is 800x600
[05:10] <tras1> obviously worked
[05:10] <emma> Virkoff, I'm sorry I don't know then.
[05:10] <dmsuperman> I just installed FreeType 2.0, and now I can't start many GUI applications (including things like gedit). How can I revert to whatever version I had previously?
[05:10] <usser> Brent^, well dunno what to say... if it errors out dont force it
[05:10] <drivetrax> Brent^,  with no cd burner.. and no Live CD, or Alternate CD, unetbootin may be your only way to install
[05:10] <zChris> jgoo: ah okey :)
[05:10] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: Now, gnome's active on the server.
[05:10] <gre1> evening everyone
[05:10] <evilbug> Some_Person- like i said,windows uses it at 60Hz.i set it at 60Hz now in ubuntu but video is still lagging.
[05:10] <Virkoff> emma: tnxz anyway
[05:10] <zChris> jgoo: hjow dod you login?
[05:10] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: yeah it's gdm them
[05:10] <ridge-meister> j1solutions: did you get it?
[05:10] <kindofabuzz> then*
[05:10] <evilbug> Some_Person- maybe i need to do a restart first?
[05:10] <Virtue> zChris, I can't find bash config... Home contains my user dir :/
[05:10] <jgoo> Some_Person, you're crazy, I'd take 1280x1024 on a 15" any day, to save my eyes
[05:11] <jgoo> zChris, aaah, ssh
[05:11] <thiebaude> lol
[05:11] <Some_Person> evilbug: well, 60Hz is all it allows on ubuntu, sorry, i just checked
[05:11] <zChris> jgoo: okey, but it works now ?
[05:11] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: It says "Not starting GNOME Display Manager; it is not the default display manager
[05:11] <gre1>  would anyone be willing to help me for a few seconds?
[05:11] <Some_Person> evilbug: you could lower your res, but thats all i can say, its nvidia's fault
[05:11] <zChris> Virtue: you create the file yourself with nano ~/.bashrc
[05:11] <jgoo> zChris, well, if I relogin, I still need to source my .bashrc ... minor detail
[05:11] <evilbug> Some_Person- what about if i get an lcd?
[05:11] <j1solutions> ridge-meister: no,
[05:11] <Mikey> zChris: can i change the theme to red or blue? the colour looks too natural to me lol
[05:11] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: then you're not running gdm them, which is gnome default
[05:11] <Virkoff> this is my problem: i have installed libdvdcss2 pkg and i can't play any comercial dvd... with any player (vlc, xine, totem, mplayer, etc) any idea??
[05:11] <Some_Person> evilbug: no difference
[05:11] <Virtue> zChris, okay, thank you :]
[05:11] <ridge-meister> j1solutions: how do i "pm" you the email address?
[05:12] <Some_Person> jgoo: are you kidding me? that text would be tiny!
[05:12] <ronnyr> What would I use to restart xdm?
[05:12] <kindofabuzz> xdm
[05:12] <Virtue> no wai!
[05:12] <evilbug> Some_Person- so not even a better gpu would do the trick?
[05:12] <zChris> jgoo: good .)
[05:12] <Brent^> usser: oh I did it a while ago and it works fine. I was just wondering if it was a dumb idea to do it that way in the first place.
[05:12] <zChris> Mikey: huh? :P
[05:12] <jgoo> zChris, if I can ssh, then I can already scp right? but gnome commander doesn't do scp! any alternatives?
[05:12] <thiebaude> some_person:thats true
[05:12] <j1solutions> just send me an email at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[05:12] <gre1>  can someone give me link to or help me install video card drivers please.
[05:12] <dmsuperman> I just installed FreeType 2.0, and now I can't start many GUI applications (including things like gedit). How can I revert to whatever version I had previously?
[05:12] <emma> Virkoff, could this be a lead? -- http://www.ubuntugeek.com/playing-encrypted-dvds-in-ubuntu.html
[05:12] <kindofabuzz> woohoo new spam email!
[05:12] <Virtue> I just searched in window and found it and edited it... but before it said "permission denied" in console :/
[05:12] <ronnyr> ok, I restarted it, kindofabuzz
[05:12] <Mikey> zChris: nvm lol
[05:12] <jgoo> Some_Person, welcome to 2008! You can set your DPI and use point sizes, have same size text, but rendered at ~120DPI, instead of 72 DPI!!
[05:12] <Some_Person> evilbug: possibly, you would have to research it, i am not knowledgeable in that sort of thing
[05:12] <zChris> jgoo: i havent used scp
[05:12] <Virkoff> emma: im going to try
[05:12] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: try to connect again
[05:13] <evilbug> Some_Person- i see.
[05:13] <jgoo> hrm. the guide I am looking at will mean I won't copy my files over before 9am... hrm :p
[05:13] <evilbug> Some_Person- thanks.
[05:13] <jgoo> guide for sftp.
[05:13] <Some_Person> evilbug: you're welcome, and sorry I couldn't help you
[05:13] <evilbug> Some_Person- i need help with something else.
[05:13] <Some_Person> evilbug: what's up?
[05:13] <Some_Person> jgoo: i use 1024x768 on a 17", is that not good?
[05:13] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: Same error.
[05:14] <dlx_> lol
[05:14] <zChris> !ROTFL | dlx_
[05:14] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: what's the error again? and are you doing vnc?
[05:14] <zChris> bha
[05:14] <Mikey> zChris: wubi asks which drive i wanna install ubuntu and next it asks bout the size, which is default to 15 (i think)... is that changeable or its recommended to leave it as is?
[05:14] <evilbug> Some_Person- i want to resize the system icons to my own liking.i've tried setting the zoom and everything to how i want in gconf-editor but it still won't show.
[05:14] <ifchaos> hi all..
[05:14] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: No, not vnc.
[05:14] <Virkoff> emma
[05:14] <dlx_> zChris, Haha 1024 på 17"
[05:14] <kindofabuzz> just ssh?
[05:14] <zChris> Mikey: its changeable
[05:14] <emma> yes?
[05:14] <dlx_> zChris, förklara hur man tänker då?
[05:14] <kindofabuzz> what's the error?
[05:14] <Some_Person> evilbug: you mean icons in folders in nautilus?
[05:14] <Newb> anyway to get all dependancy packages downloaded and configured if im trying to dpkg something that needs it from the terminal?
[05:14] <Virkoff> emma: i have already instaled the pkge in that way
[05:14] <soulreape1> air crack help anyone? please i need help installing
[05:14] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: Display ""  couldn't be opened.
[05:14] <evilbug> Some_Person- i went to Preferences and it works to have the start at their own selected zoom levels,but they're either too small or too big.
[05:15] <evilbug> Some_Person- that and desktop icons.
[05:15] <Mikey> zChris: in that case wots the recommended size? (will the size be used to save files from ubuntu)?
[05:15] <zChris> soulreape1: dosent sudo apt-get install aircrack work ?
[05:15] <emma> Virkoff, I see. I am at a loss then. I'm sorry.
[05:15] <thiebaude> evilbug:stretch icons
[05:15] <jgoo> Some_Person, You should run at native on an LCD, and highest on a non (but of course, bitmap images aren't resolution, so your images would look smaller) also, when using 120DPI, websites can get fluffed up
[05:15] <emma> I have to try to sleep now. Goodnight one and all.
[05:15] <zChris> Mikey: 10b and aboce i think
[05:15] <Virtue> how do I get permission ?? :]
[05:15] <zChris> Gn emma
[05:15] <ushimitsudoki> I am preparing to install Hardy on my laptop, where I already have (and need to keep) WinXP. Any special guide or site I should read before proceeding?
[05:15] <ronnyr> Using startx, I get  Xlib': connection to":0.0" refused by server. Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-Cookie-1 key
[05:15] <Virkoff> emma: don't worry
[05:15] <Some_Person> jgoo: this is a CRT
[05:15] <thiebaude> goodnight emma
[05:15] <zChris> Virtue: for ?
[05:15] <Virkoff> emma: tnxz
[05:15] <gre1> evening
[05:15] <jgoo> Some_Person, crank it as high as it will go
[05:15] <ronnyr> @ kindofabuzz
[05:15] <evilbug> thiebaude- no way to have it do it automatically?
[05:15] <Brent^> is there a way to change the size that I told Wubi initially to use for the hard drive space limit?
[05:15] <ifchaos> i can hearing multiple voice in ubuntu 7.10..
[05:15] <jgoo> Some_Person, and google for setting the DPI (in the x conf)
[05:16] <Virtue> zChris, the same, editing bash.bashrc... I could open and edit, but doesn't save. Says need permission
[05:16] <zChris> ifchaos: take your pills
[05:16] <dlx_> lol
[05:16] <thiebaude> evilbug:it should, thats what i did
[05:16] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: so you're just doing a reguler ssh <ip>?
[05:16] <Some_Person> evilbug: i dont really know, the only settings i know of are nautilus's zoom, which you don't like
[05:16] <zChris> Virtue: where did you open it ? i guess you could do a sudo to get permission
[05:16] <darknessinc> sup everyone
[05:16] <Some_Person> jgoo: what
[05:16] <jgoo> Virtue, sudo chown username /home/username
[05:16] <thiebaude> evilbug:just resized them because they were too big
[05:16] <Mikey> zChris: im almost there! so i should place the wubi and ubuntu setup in same folder and then execute wubi?
[05:16] <Some_Person> jgoo: what's wrong with 1024x768? at least i get 85hz refresh rate
[05:16] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: No, I ssh -X root@ip
[05:16] <zChris> Mikey: correct
[05:17] <darknessinc> anyone else running hd2600 video card?
[05:17] <jgoo> Some_Person, refresh is important, yes. buy a new LCD screen ;-) 19" are very cheap now
[05:17] <evilbug> thiebaude- and how do i stretch them?
[05:17] <zChris> ronnyr: default is that root aint allowed to ssh iirc
[05:17] <Brent^> zChris: are you telling him how to install Ubuntu HH through Wubi?
[05:17] <soulreape1> zchris:E: Couldn't find package aircrack
[05:17] <thiebaude> evilbug:right click a folder
[05:17] <zChris> Brent^: yeah
[05:17] <zChris> soulreape1: aircrack-ng ?
[05:17] <Some_Person> jgoo: 19" wouldn't fit in my space. 17" bearly fits
[05:17] <ronnyr> zChris: Whatever. Let's say  use my normal login.
[05:17] <DG19075> setting fonts to higher dpi's makes for much easier reading for these 53 yr old eyes...

[05:21] <thiebaude> nostahl:did you check your headphone settings in the volumn control?
[05:21] <ridge-meister> j1solutions: installing both the LPR and CUPS driver packages did not resolve the issue (not being able to print).
[05:21] <Newb> someperson: have you ever changed window managers?
[05:21] <j1solutions> ridge-meister: is it USB attached or parallel?
[05:21] <Explo> Can someone help me? I need to figure out how to execute a file from a cron job (the file is /home/<myname>/scripts/backup, and i usually execute it with ./backup), but it won't let me do that from cron. ( I seem to have to be able to do a ./home/myname/scripts/backup, but it won't do that.) :(

[05:22] <Nostahl> thiebaude thats the weird thing
[05:22] <kindofabuzz> sudo apt-get install xauth

[05:23] <CorbinFox> is it possible/safe/not-suicidal to install the newest version of gnome to 7.10?
[05:23] <vbman11> Newb: Sry I use gnome, I don't know any thing about xfce
[05:23] <zChris> CorbinFox:  i would say so yes, not 100 though :)
[05:24] <Newb> vbman11: but when you changed did the layout change?
[05:24] <Virtue> zChris, I'm editing via nano, but how do I use context menus? the "^X" ?
[05:24] <kindofabuzz> CorbinFox: if there was a gnome 7.1 then yes, but there isn't a gonme 7.10
[05:24] <linlynx6> pastebin link please
[05:24] <kindofabuzz> CorbinFox: nvm, i know what you're saying now =)
[05:24]  * jgoo_ slaps jgoo
[05:24] <zChris> Virtue: to use ^X you press and hold CONTROL and then X
[05:24] <Flannel> Virtue: ^ means ctrl
[05:25] <vbman11> Newb: no, they probably won't on yours, but no guarantees
[05:25] <Virtue> Thank you!
[05:25] <Virtue> that's what I wanted to know :]
[05:25] <jgoo_> ok, I was installing something from add/remove - cairo clock... and everything froze. mouse moves... numlock and capslock don't respond
[05:25] <soulreape1> dlx_: so can i do the same thing as air crack with ettercap
[05:25] <CorbinFox> well, i'll just wait until im ready to reinstall anyways.  maybe i'll try 8.04 while im at it
[05:25] <Newb> vbman11: thats good enough for me, thanks
[05:25] <jgoo_> so now I am on another machine. i think cairo crashed. I cannot use atrl-alt-f1, the terminal doesn't comeup
[05:26]  * Brent^ is very happy he finally has a working screensaver plugin (one that makes the flying window effect)
[05:26] <j1solutions> is this working

[05:27] <dlx_> Ettercap can sniff traffic
[05:27] <linlynx6> Ok please somebody help me with this http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/source-198.html
[05:27] <vbman11> Flannel: I got an error "svn: Unknown hostname 'svn.banshee-project.org'"

[05:28] <sensae> Argh, I'm so close to getting NFS to work - It's just giving me permission denid :x
[05:28] <sensae> *denied
[05:28] <vbman11> Flannel: svn co svn://svn.banshee-project.org/trunk/banshee-itunes-plugin
[05:28] <stoneDJay> What should I do to get ACPI working well with cpu fan?  Its not scaling... and sometimes simply turns off, causing an overheating...
[05:28] <soulreape1> dlx_: ok then have you installed air crack before
[05:28] <jgoo_> zChris, if your machine froze now, caps lock not responding, but mouse could move, and ctrl-alt-f1 didn't work... what would you do?
[05:28] <dlx_> soulreape1, no, but it would't be a problem, you got it in REPO
[05:28] <jgoo_> aaah it is 'Raising Elephants Is So Utterly Boring' herhehe
[05:29] <Flannel> vbman11: unknown hostname means svn can't resolve that address, and I can't either.   I should restart metacity...
[05:30] <Brent^> dlx_: thank you
[05:30] <jgoo_> zChris - how to do that? :p
[05:30] <dlx_> Brent^, You welcome
[05:30] <vbman11> Flannel: that is"itunes store"
[05:31] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: http://www.x.org/wiki/FAQErrorMessages
[05:31] <soulreape1> Dlx_: what is repo
[05:31] <dlx_> soulreape1, apt-get is repo
[05:31] <zChris> jgoo_: well first, you have to have SSHD enabled, if you havent activly enabled it your doomed :)
[05:31] <soulreape1> ok

[05:31] <zChris> jgoo_: :)
[05:31] <vbman11> Flannel: with out the "that is"
[05:31] <jgoo_> raising elepphants it is...
[05:31] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: The number denotes the display number (in this case 0). This number needs to be unique on the system, so you cannot run two servers on one system with identical display numbers.

[05:31] <_Net> I think I have similar question to Brent^ .
[05:32] <linlynx6> Please Somebody http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/source-198.html
[05:32] <Flannel> vbman11: Looks like its defunct, it was aleady unmaintained.  If you'll have any luck, it'll be through asking the banshee people where the repos might've gone
[05:32] <Brent^> hmm?
[05:32] <_Net> I have lampp installed in /opt/lampp but my Zend IDE cannot write or read from it because it requires root
[05:32] <_Net> If I do a chomod a+x /opt/lampp would that cause any damages?
[05:32] <Flannel> _Net: why not install it properly?
[05:32] <_Net> I did install it properly.
[05:32] <vbman11> Flannel: check out this page "http://banshee-project.org/PluginRepository"
[05:32] <soulreape1> Dlx_: so do you know how to use it
[05:33] <dlx_> soulreape1, lmao, no i havne't use it anytime
[05:33] <Flannel> vbman11: right, it's not there.  Ask the banshee people.  It may be that they cleaned up unmaintained plugins, I have no idea.
[05:33] <_Net> It works fine. Its just the root user that has the permissions to read and write to /opt/lampp and not my current user
[05:33] <soulreape1> lol
[05:33] <soulreape1> i go watch a vid then
[05:33] <dlx_> soulreape1, but, lol... it isnt to hard, just read... or get urself a video about how to crack wlan go to irongeek.com
[05:33] <vbman11> Flannel: k thanks!
[05:33] <soulreape1> so its installed right?
[05:33] <jgoo_> ok the fact that that worked is insane.... after R-E-I the mouse stopped working
[05:33] <zChris> _Net: use gksudo to open Zend ide as root
[05:33] <j1solutions> gotta go
[05:34] <wastrel> i would chown it to the www-data user and group and add yourself to that group
[05:34] <thiebaude> night everyone
[05:34] <jgoo_> hrm, I think this is the first time ever rebooting this machine in weeks anyway
[05:34] <userlol> can anyone here please look at my thread on the forums and give some feedback thanks : http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4907852&postcount=1
[05:34] <soulreape1> Dlx_: its installd right
[05:34] <zChris> wastrel: you better highlight him :)
[05:34] <_Net> zChris: Thats going to ask my my administrative password everytime I try to run Zend.
[05:34] <jgoo_> back to being me again
[05:34]  * jgoo_ slaps jgoo some more
[05:34] <wastrel> i would chown it to the www-data user and group and add yourself to that group _Net
[05:34] <soulreape1> Dlx_: thanx
[05:34] <prozac420>  ultimate.outsidersz.com
[05:35] <zChris> _Net:  do what wastrel said its a nice solution
[05:35] <prozac420> DOH!
[05:35] <Flannel> linlynx6: paste the whole thing, not just that excerpt
[05:35] <ridge-meister> pfft @ j1solutions
[05:35] <dlx_> soulreape1, Perfect, now crack something, good luck. have fun.
[05:35] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: It now says: "X11 connection refused because of wrong authentification. X connection to localhost:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown)
[05:36] <_Net> wastrel: Okay. But what exactly do you mean by www-data?
[05:36] <stoneDJay> What should I do to get ACPI working well with cpu fan?  Its not scaling... and sometimes simply turns off, causing an overheating...
[05:36] <wastrel> _Net: www-data is the user that apache runs as on debian/ubuntu
[05:37] <mochaRHW> Has anyone in here successfully compiled Vidalia for Hardy?
[05:37] <wastrel> actually i don't know if you're supposed to have writable on www-data owned stuff for just that reason
[05:37] <wastrel> hrm  scrap that idea
[05:37] <_Net> wastrel: Oh your saying I should add my current user to the group of root under group management?
[05:38] <Flannel> _Net: group of www-data
[05:38] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: some kind of authentication error then
[05:38] <Brent^> I can't begin to express my anger that anything users upload to my server is by befault owned by www-data and I can't view it without chown'ing it
[05:38] <Newb> I can't find opera in synaptic :(

[05:39] <Brent^> Flannel: my what?
[05:39] <dsmith_> when I run ethereal in hardy, in order for it to *see* eth0 i have to run it with elvated privleges? GKSU?? why

[05:39] <zChris> Mikey: didnt you get an option to select ubuntu ?
[05:39] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: What can i do?
[05:39] <tristil> God, so I can't type 'i' in my terminal anymore.
[05:39] <Mikey> nah
[05:39] <Flannel> Brent^: The permissions that php is set up to create the file with.  That's what determines those perms.
[05:39] <Mikey> wait... i left the laptop to grab some quick lunch just now... maybe i missed it! lol lemme reboot againt
[05:39] <Mikey> *again
[05:39] <zChris> haha
[05:39] <Brent^> Flannel: in php.ini right?
[05:40] <Brent^> hahaha
[05:40] <Flannel> Brent^: I'm not really sure where it is
[05:40] <kindofabuzz> check your /etc/ssh/sshd_config, and uncomment #X11uselocalhost yes
[05:40] <kindofabuzz> if there
[05:40] <Brent^> Flannel: I'll look for it tomarow
[05:40] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: change it to no
[05:41] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: and you may have to restart the server
[05:41] <ronnyr> What should I change to, kindofabuzz?

[05:49] <Deepthought> why does real Player (Helix) use about 6 separate instances when playing a networkstream ?
[05:49] <emma> Nostahl, see if this helps you -- http://www.stchman.com/feisty_tips.html
[05:50] <kindofabuzz> Deepthought: cause realplayer STILL sux? =)
[05:50] <Brent^> oddalot: if no one else provides a better solution I'd say boot in safe and reinstall anything that could be causing the error
[05:50] <oddalot> brent....how do i reinstall gnome?
[05:50] <DOOM_NX> how do u set Download 4 X to download 1 file at a time
[05:50] <DOOM_NX> ?
[05:50] <agro1986> !paste
[05:50] <Brent^> kindofabuzz: reply buffering
[05:51] <Brent^> oddalot: can you still use synaptic in safe mode?
[05:51] <MrPiracy> How do I install video codecs in gutsy? Is there a package or something?
[05:51] <oddalot> yes...let me try and open it
[05:51] <Deepthought> kindofabuzz: that would make sense if we were in the winworld; this however is an open source-player (helix), only the codecs are restructed; And about sucking: watching NASA-tcv on Totem makes me sad with soundlag and mpeg-artefacts, kaffein doesn't lag but has the ugly artefacts; Real player or better helix with real codec does not.
[05:51] <kindofabuzz> MrPiracy: did you search synaptic for video codecs?
[05:51] <oddalot> bah, the darn menu won't let me click
[05:52] <karllenz_> what is that displayconfig comande?
[05:52] <kindofabuzz> Deepthought: VLC baby
[05:52] <MrPiracy> kindofabuzz: no, but does it have a package in it? i need Intel codec 4 and h.264
[05:52] <oddalot> there we go
[05:52] <emma> MrPiracy, I recommend sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[05:52] <kindofabuzz> MrPiracy: VLC to you too. VLC wil play anything
[05:52] <karllenz_> anyone the one that lets me set the kind of monitor i have?
[05:53] <linlynx6> here please http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/source-199.html
[05:53] <kindofabuzz> without codecs
[05:53] <Deepthought> you' ve got a point there... Though I'm not sure about the artefacts, think they' re there as well.. but lemme try again, and see how the real stream looks there; maybe it's not the player but the stream-codec that's to blame
[05:53] <Brent^> click on gnome and click "Mark for reinstallation" and hit apply (someone correct me if theres something else he should do first)
[05:53] <MrPiracy> kindofabuzz: how can i install VLC?
[05:53] <emma> MrPiracy, sudo apt-get install vlc
[05:53] <kindofabuzz> MrPiracy: symnaptic is your friend
[05:53] <oddalot> which is the main gnome thing i should reinstall?
[05:53] <agro1986> help: after installing modem driver, sound not working. it's as if the driver is not loaded. here are the relevant lines from "lshw" BEFORE and AFTER the modem installation: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10870/ (please tell me how to make the sound work again)
[05:54] <MrPiracy> kindofabuzz:  just vlc or the plugins too?
[05:54] <kindofabuzz> MrPiracy: up to you
[05:54] <MrPiracy> kindofabuzz: ok, thanx, will try that
[05:54] <kindofabuzz> MrPiracy: if you just wanna open a program then open a file all you need is just the VLC and it's deps
[05:54] <_Net> The Copy command is: cp <old folder> <new location?>
[05:54] <linlynx6> Vlc need no plugin is integrated
[05:55] <DOOM_NX> how do u set Download 4 X to download 1 file at a time?
[05:55] <MrPiracy> kindofabuzz: ok, thanx
[05:55] <Brent^> oddalot: not sure myself, I'd ask someone else about that but probably just anything that looks importent
[05:56] <Brent^> never needed to reinstall gnome myself so that may or may not solve your problem
[05:56] <agro1986> help: after installing modem driver, sound not working. it's as if the driver is not loaded. here are the relevant lines from "lshw" BEFORE and AFTER the modem installation: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10870/ (please tell me how to make the sound work again). Hint: at first, "Communication controller" gets the status UNCLAIMED. after modem driver installation, the "Audio device" is the one that is UNCLAIMED
[05:56] <darknessinc> woot just finished getting video card drivers and flash installed
[05:56] <darknessinc>  i was wondering if there was anything else iam missing as this is my first install
[05:56] <jgoo> from command line, what is the best way to see memory usage? svmon?
[05:57] <sensae> My exports file and everything are fine, but I'm still getting permission denied when trying to mount an nfs share
[05:57] <zChris> time for bed, gn everyone and gl with your problems!
[05:57] <oddalot> darknessinc java plugin
[05:57] <jgoo> cheers zChris
[05:57] <dlx_> hehe
[05:57] <Brent^> gnite zChris
[05:57] <agro1986> darknesssinc: audio codecs (e.g., mp3)
[05:57] <dlx_> wet dreams
[05:57] <darknessinc> alright, java plugin anything else that is essential?
[05:57] <jgoo> heh
[05:57] <Rat409> /cl/cl
[05:57] <Rat409> whoops
[05:57] <stefan_> hello
[05:57] <sensae> night zChris, thanks for the help
[05:57] <dlx_> h3ll0
[05:57] <darknessinc> audio codecs as in   vlc or mp3 player or as in my audio drivers?
[05:58] <darknessinc> im sorry lol this is all really new
[05:58] <stefan_> !virtual machine
[05:58] <stefan_> what is the default virtual machine program in 8.04?
[05:58] <dlx_> !VMWare
[05:58] <stefan_> how do I run it?
[05:58] <stefan_> Libvirt?
[05:58] <dlx_> !VirtualBox
[05:58] <oddalot> darknessinc just take your time
[05:58] <_Net> How do you copy a folder to one place to another?
[05:58] <_Net> cp thisfolder newfolder?
[05:59] <dlx_> stefan_, i guess its virtual-box that is the default shit
[05:59] <jgoo> ok, it is cat /proc/meminfo
[05:59] <eatatjoes> does anyone know how to use tilp?
[05:59] <dlx_> stefan_, but i dont really know,
[05:59] <agro1986> darknesssinc: not drivers, but programs called "codec" so that media players can play mp3 files etc
[05:59] <jgoo> and I have 700mb free on a 1gb ram system! wooohoo
[05:59] <zcat[1]> _Net: cp -r thisfolder thatfolder
[05:59] <darknessinc> alright, so first things first...  so java then audio codecs
[06:00] <jgoo> and... 700mb free on a 2gb system... running compiz... wooha :p
[06:00] <torgrimt> anyone know if running a fs directly on a drive without a partition is stupid? ;)
[06:00] <darknessinc> just google java linux or
[06:00] <zcat[1]> torgrimt: generally, yes. fairly dangerous
[06:00] <dlx_> stefan_, am trying virtualbox now, from the repo
[06:00] <torgrimt> zcat[1]: why ?
[06:00] <torgrimt> zcat[1]: seems to work just fine
[06:00] <zcat[1]> torgrimt: a lot of usb drives are set up that way though
[06:00] <ToddEDM> hi  iwas wondering if someone could help me, im trying to connect to my other PC which is windows, both, this laptop (ubuntu), and the windowsPC are wireless
[06:00] <zcat[1]> !worksforme
[06:01] <Deepthought> kindofabuzz: OK, VLC does not play the real stream, and, as I already knew and just made sure, on WM-stream it gives the ssame ugly blocky edges to just about everything I watch.   But like I said, could be the codec's the pronb, not the player; any player that WILL play a real stream in linux ?
[06:01] <lesjohn> i'm running hardy powerpc.  the brightness buttons on the keyboard don't change the brightness (though they do pop up the scale) and neither does the toolbar item.  is there any other way to change this? i'm going blind
[06:01] <torgrimt> zcat[1]: some sans also i noticed
[06:01] <Deepthought> kindofabuzz: or is there xtra pluginz for VLC (I used to be big vlc fan in win-days) ?
[06:01] <eatatjoes> anyone have luck connecting a mp3 player (creative zen vision:m) to ubuntu or getting it to work in vbox
[06:02] <torgrimt> eatatjoes: tried gnomads2?
[06:02] <stefan_> dlx_:  I know about vbox and vmware, I wanted to use the Ubuntu 8.04 native application
[06:02] <stefan_> any ideas how to start it?
[06:02] <eatatjoes> torgrimt, i tried but it says that i dont have a jukebox player connected
[06:02] <stefan_> !libvirt
[06:02] <zcat[1]> torgrimt: mostly because a lot of software will assume that it's 'safe' to overwrite the MBR or alter the partition table. Particularly, that it's safe to recreate a partition table if you don't have anything recognisable there. Which will trash the first block of your filesystem if you're using the whole drive unpartitioned
[06:02] <sensae> I'm back, I just crashed o.o
[06:02] <Lard|arse> is there a method in gnome to open a non-executable file with whichever program gnome would default to oppening it with if you had double clicked it? (similar to the "start" method in windows)
[06:02] <_Net> Worked, thanks zcat[1]
[06:03] <torgrimt> zcat[1]: hmm ;)
[06:03] <vbhide> does anyone know how i can manually delete my music from my ipod? all the readers show it empty, but only 11 gb / 30 is left
[06:03] <zcat[1]> and generally; it just is less messy to partition, even if you only have one. It takes two 512 byte blocks.. that's almost nothing.
[06:04] <darknessinc> alright downloading java, anyone got a good codec pack i should download?
[06:04] <torgrimt> problem is that parted or fdisk dosent want to create a 3tb filesystem
[06:04] <dlx_> stefan_, dont know, sorry
[06:04] <torgrimt> or.. they cant read the geometry from the drive
[06:04] <zcat[1]> I think you can force them :)
[06:04] <torgrimt> /dev/sdc              3.2T  199M  3.0T   1% /media/jumbo
[06:04] <torgrimt> ;)
[06:04] <zcat[1]> not sure, I've never had a drive that big
[06:05] <darknessinc> oh wow.. lol 3tb of space?
[06:05] <Kohlrak> for the emulation fans out there, is there a player on linux that can play USF files?
[06:05] <torgrimt> seems to work atleast
[06:06] <DeltaSlaya> Hey
[06:06] <zcat[1]> oh well..
[06:06] <ljsoftnet> hello
[06:06] <Brayans> =D
[06:06] <DeltaSlaya> I have a question! :D
[06:06] <Brayans> hello everybody :P
[06:06] <ljsoftnet> whats your question?
[06:06] <torgrimt> darknessinc: 3.2 ;)
[06:06] <Lard|arse> !ask | DeltaSlaya
[06:06] <arvind_khadri> DeltaSlaya, ask
[06:07] <cycom> ok... any idea why time wouldn't accept arguments?
[06:07] <DeltaSlaya> hold on
[06:07] <darknessinc> lol thats just sick... lol i have like 300gb lol
[06:07] <Lard|arse> cycom: depends what you're trying to do with time
[06:07] <cycom> as in, time -V reports that -V is not found by bash
[06:07] <dessnr> in ubuntu 8.04 there is an option on the right mouse menu, (click right mouse on a file) for encryption.  whenever I go to encrypt a file, it comes up with a box about encryption keys and so forth.  does anybody have any clues as to how to encrypt, as no keys are listed in the box, hence forth not allowing me to click ok .
[06:07] <darknessinc> hmm for some reason i downloaded java and now its on my desktop but i cant open it... ?
[06:07] <Lard|arse> cycom: you may also be confusing it with date.. do man time and man date to see the difference
[06:07] <DeltaSlaya> In nautilus, where you select what happens when a media device is connected / inserted, how do you change the application shown there, to another one?
[06:07] <jameswf-home> Does Ubuntu 8.04 use /boot/grub/menu.list and if so why does mine show the right stuff for 8.04 but at boot it tries to load 7.10 though there is no 7.10 stuff in menu.lst... yes I have run update-grub
[06:07] <cycom> Lard|arse: time as in time the exectution of a program.
[06:07] <Kohlrak> how'd you download java, darknessinc?
[06:08] <darknessinc> from java website
[06:08] <cycom> Lard|arse: which is supposed to accept -V to show the version of time.
[06:08] <DeltaSlaya> Can anyone answer my question should I ask again?
[06:08] <Kohlrak> try using synaptic instead =p
[06:08] <kindofabuzz> darknessinc: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[06:08] <Lard|arse> cycom: ok... then read man time, as it says in there how to force it to not use the shell's version of time
[06:08] <vbhide> does anyone know how i can manually delete my music from my ipod? all the readers show it empty, but only 11 gb / 30 is left
[06:08] <arvind_khadri> jameswf-home, yeah ubuntu uses that check it out remove the older kernel from there
[06:08] <DeltaSlaya> In nautilus, where you select what happens when a media device is connected / inserted, how do you change the application shown there, to another one?
[06:08] <kindofabuzz> !patience | DeltaSlaya
[06:08] <sangprabo> hi all. I want to generate an ER diagram from sql file. I mean it may look like MySQL Workbench or MS Access in Windows. How do I do that in Ubuntu? I have used Ferret, but it seems it doesn't fit my need. Thanks
[06:09] <cycom> Lard|arse: bingo. missed that.
[06:09] <DeltaSlaya> Is that a bot, whats wrong with my attitude?
[06:09] <dessnr> jameswf-home: edit your /boot/grub menu.1st file and change the default number.  count down from 0 to where your 8.04 is on the list and then make the default value equal to that value.
[06:09] <Lard|arse> cycom: i remembred reading that earlier this week :-)
[06:09] <darknessinc> lol thanks... i dontreally know what its all downloading
[06:09] <darknessinc> but it must be needed:)
[06:09] <Kohlrak> DeltaSlayer, i forget where it is, but there is something similar to the windows registry on ubuntu... You might want to try that.
[06:10] <jameswf-home> dessnr: none of the 8.04 options show at boot
[06:10] <DeltaSlaya> How do I get into this registry like thing?
[06:10] <Kohlrak> darknessinc, i'm assuming waht you put on the desktop was a .bin file, those can be a pain if you don't have everyting you need....
[06:10] <DarthGimp> Greets! Is there a way to recover the Admin Password in Ubuntu?
[06:10] <cycom> Lard|arse: it's goofy because which time responds with /usr/bin/time
[06:10] <darknessinc> ya it was a bin
[06:10] <arvind_khadri> jameswf-home, run update-initramfs
[06:10] <dessnr> jameswf-home: have a look if they exist at all in your boot/grub/menu.1st file///
[06:10] <Kohlrak> DarthGimp, it's your password...
[06:10] <darknessinc> but i did just open terminal and paste that info u linked to me
[06:10] <kindofabuzz> DeltaSlaya: there is no registry
[06:10] <Lard|arse> cycom: see also man bash ?
[06:11] <DeltaSlaya> I'm assuming it's a nautilus option. I mean I installed Amarok and I want it to open when I plug in my iPod.
[06:11] <kindofabuzz> DeltaSlaya: what do you mean switch app?
[06:11] <DarthGimp> Kohlrak, the password has been forgotten
[06:11] <kindofabuzz> oh
[06:11] <patifa> darthgimp: With physical access, you can overwrite the admin password.  There's no way to 'recover' the password without massive computational power.
[06:11] <DarthGimp> Kohlrak, I am asking on behalf of someone
[06:11] <DeltaSlaya> Well it only shows Musicthing for me, I want it to also have Ubuntu as an option.
[06:11] <DeltaSlaya> AMAROK**
[06:11] <DeltaSlaya> I meant amarok there lol
[06:11] <jameswf-home> ran update-initramfs let me see what happens...
[06:11] <eatatjoes> anyone know how to address this error "Check your libusb and usbfs permissions, too."
[06:12] <kindofabuzz> DeltaSlaya: does amorok support ipods?  if so, just plug in your ipod then open amorok, or have it already open
[06:12] <DeltaSlaya> Yea I might just do that.
[06:12] <Kohlrak> darknessinc, usually when you download a linux.bin it's a binary file that you need to set permissions to with "chmod +x [app path here]" and "./[app path here]"
[06:13] <DeltaSlaya> Why did they move the majority of the preferred application options to the Nautilus settings instead of the System settings in this version (8.04) of Ubuntu?
[06:13] <DarthGimp> patifa, so then .. its a reinstall?
[06:13] <Kohlrak> Probably efficiency reasons, deltaSlaya
[06:13] <kindofabuzz> DeltaSlaya: http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_amarok_ipod
[06:13] <Kohlrak> Darth, pretty much...
[06:13] <DeltaSlaya> True, but I think it confused everyone!
[06:13] <sensae> Okay, doing showmount -e shows I'm exporting the right directory with the right settings, but I can't mount this NFS share. "Permission denied"
[06:14] <DarthGimp> thanks guys!
[06:14] <dessnr> in ubuntu 8.04 there is an option on the right mouse menu, (click right mouse on a file) for encryption.  whenever I go to encrypt a file, it comes up with a box about encryption keys and so forth.  does anybody have any clues as to how to encrypt, as no keys are listed in the box, hence forth not allowing me to click ok .
[06:14] <darknessinc> wow lol this is gonna take me months or years to learn all this coding
[06:14] <lesjohn> can i adjust lcd brightness from the command line?
[06:14] <Kohlrak> darknessinc: ?
[06:15] <giuseppe> irc://irc.deltaanime.net/mexicanmafia
[06:15] <sensae> Anyone familiar with NFS shares?
[06:15] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: Ok! It works now for single programs. But how do I use a complete Window Manager via ssh? Is that possible?
[06:15] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: vnc
[06:15] <Kohlrak> Nose Fart/Nintendo Sound Format?
[06:15] <patifa> DarthGimp: No, you need to boot into single usermode, then forcibly alter the the password to someone in the admin group.
[06:15] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: not via ssh -X?
[06:15] <DeltaSlaya> Ok I have another question: What's the easiest way to get my Logitech G11 Keyboard (like G15 without screen) to map commands to the G1-18 keys. When I used librarys and editing keyboard files and stuff they didn't all work correctly.
[06:15] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: what do you mean, actually see the server desktop and stuff?
[06:15] <patifa> DarthGimp: And to get into singleuser mode, you'll need physical access to the machine.
[06:16] <ronnyr> kind: Yes
[06:16] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: yeah vnc is all you need
[06:16] <ushimitsudoki> DeltaSlaya: I use G15 tools for that, but it's a bit flaky
[06:16] <darknessinc> i mean, lol i just installed ubuntu. and im kind of lost  i have no exp with linux
[06:16] <kindofabuzz> ssh is cl
[06:16] <OSUKid7> hey, I'm running keychain to add my ssh keys, but when I ssh out, it doesn't seem to use them... this is new in hardy. it worked fine in gutsy :\ any idea how to make it work?
[06:16] <ronnyr> cl?
[06:16] <kindofabuzz> command line
[06:16] <ronnyr> kind: That's why we use ssh -X
[06:16] <OSUKid7> !keychain
[06:17] <OSUKid7> hmm :\
[06:17] <XiD`> irc.freenode.net
[06:17] <dessnr> OSUKid7: Have you had any luck getting the right mouse button encryption going?
[06:17] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: that's why you only get one app
[06:17] <XiD`> ...
[06:17] <XiD`> hi folks. i am currently running livecd version of Ubuntu and have a question about installing the partition regarding data currently on the disk i'm trying to install to
[06:17] <PEDIK> hi, can someone help me close xserver, so that Ican update NVIDIA drivers
[06:17] <userbn> nopix
[06:17] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: Is it possible to install client AND server on the same pc?
[06:17] <Kohlrak> XiD, ask away
[06:17] <OSUKid7> dessnr: not sure what you mean
[06:17] <ronnyr> So that I vnc via my ssh tunnel?
[06:17] <kindofabuzz> yea
[06:17] <DeltaSlaya> ushi:Do you know any other ways? Thats the way I did it originally but I didn't like mucking around in all the files. There must be a program where you can enter a key and it finds the value and assigns an option. one more advanced than the keyboard shortcut thing.
[06:17] <dessnr> in 8.04 Ubuntu, hardy, you can right mouse on a file and there is an "encrypt" option.
[06:17] <ronnyr> How's that done?
[06:18] <XiD`> Currently, I have around 100gb used and 100gb free on a hdd that i want to install Ubuntu to. This drive has only one partition, the entire drive, and i want to sep
[06:18] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: install ssh client and server
[06:18] <ronnyr> you mean vnc client and serveR?
[06:18] <pr0nBloke> I'm having problems with Hardy.  It's got to do with my truecrypt.  Any help?
[06:18] <ronnyr> server*
[06:18] <darknessinc>  kohlrak that sudo get_apt restricted_extra's what is all that? java?
[06:18] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: yeah
[06:18] <PEDIK> anyone, how do I close xserve
[06:18] <Rat409> DeltaSlaya: xmodmap?
[06:18] <dessnr> OSUKid7: in 8.04 Ubuntu, hardy, you can right mouse on a file and there is an "encrypt" option.
[06:18] <Virtue> how do I run commands?   It's not happening now, but how can I prevent it from happening in the future?
[06:19] <DeltaSlaya> and I double checked i followed the instructions
[06:19] <Kohlrak> XiD, that's MIRC for you... XD
[06:19] <Lardarse> !language | XiD`
[06:19] <OSUKid7> dessnr: oh... haven't tried that. that's not what I'm asking about at all... I'm trying to use `keychain` to login to my keys once, not each time I need to use them
[06:20] <XiD`> Kohlrak: can i safely partition and install ubuntu without risking losing the data currently on the drive?
[06:20] <Lardarse> XiD`: from what i know about it, it doens't handle connecting to multiple networks very well
[06:20] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: ovenvpn? tinc? vpnc?
[06:20] <beebeentu> Hello. Yesterday I tried to install HH on my laptop. I have had Edgy, Feisty and Gutsy installed on this machine previously. I downloaded and burnt the iso and chose to install. I selected manual so I could set up a / and a /home partition. I filled in a few more details and when it started to format my partitions my screen went blank (not black - blank). I waited but it didn't come back after 30m. I restarted the machine and went throu
[06:20] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: sudo apt-get vnc4server vnc4-common
[06:20] <XiD`> Lardarse: this problem is entirely new to me, i've used mirc for years across multiple networks and never had this issue
[06:20] <Lardarse> XiD`: yes, unless you are resizing a partition
[06:20] <schitzo> hi
[06:20] <XiD`> Lardarse: i am resizing it, as the current partition is the entire drive and i want to seperate it into two partitions
[06:20] <LiraNuna> anyone knows of a PHP software that will manage events? Kind of like meetup.com, but personal
[06:20] <Kohlrak> there's no garenteed safety of data, but as long as you don't loose power you shouldn't have a problem, XiD
[06:21] <darknessinc> what do i type to tell if i have java installed?
[06:21] <XiD`> Lardarse: unless i have mistaken the definition for resizing 9which may be so)
[06:21] <schitzo> ok
[06:21] <dessnr> OSUKid7: there are two options to have a look at.  preferences > encryption and keys & administration > authorizations....  have a look at those and see if they help you with that.
[06:21] <Lardarse> !partition | XiD`
[06:21] <Lardarse> and backup everything first
[06:21] <ronnyr> Ok How do I use that now, kindofabuzz?
[06:21] <Lardarse> wait
[06:21] <Lardarse> that's not accurate
[06:21] <Lardarse> but you do understand resizing correctly
[06:21] <Kohlrak> Lardarse, he's doing it from the install menu i think.
[06:21] <Deepthought> XiD`: You will have to shrink the one partition you have to make room foor ubuntu partition and swap partition; what is on the drive ?   Just data, or also an install of windoze you wish to keep on using ?
[06:21] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: not trying to be rude but google.com
[06:21] <XiD`> i am running LiveCD right now
[06:21] <Lardarse> things to do: defrag the other partition, backup everything you can
[06:22] <Lardarse> and do you know what file system the partition is?
[06:22] <XiD`> Deepthought: raw data i use for windows (which is installed on a seperate drive)
[06:22] <Kohlrak> you shouldn't have to defrag... o.O
[06:22] <XiD`> Lardarse: NTFS
[06:22] <JDSBlueDevl> hi, I occasionally get a "segmentation fault" error when trying to run Firefox.  It's not happening now, but how can I prevent it from happening in the future?
[06:22] <Lardarse> Kohlrak: no, but i'm not sure that it ever hurts the process...
[06:22] <beebeentu> Can someone help me please? I am scared now to try installing HH on my other machines
[06:22] <DeltaSlaya> Does anyone know of a linux program that you can use to edit keyboard mapping. Especially of non-standard keys?
[06:22] <aldrick> is there a xubuntu channel?
[06:22] <zcat[1]> Kohlrak: apparently it helps.. I've never done it tho :)
[06:23] <Lardarse> aldrick: #xubuntu
[06:23] <arvind_k> aldrick, yea
[06:23] <aldrick> hehe ty!
[06:23] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: If I would know the right keywords to search for..
[06:23] <Kohlrak> XD well, if he's already on teh live cd, it seems a little inconvienient to go and defrag all night then get back on the cd XD
[06:23] <Lardarse> rowhat are you looking for?
[06:23] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: umm vnc server ubuntu
[06:23] <Deepthought> XiD`: OK, then there' s no problem in shrinking it; would be best to defragment it first in windoze though; do a total defrag (empty space & files), tat will make resizing sfer and faster.  You need say 20 G for ubuntu (plenty room to add stuf) and 1 or 2 gig swap
[06:23] <Lardarse> oopps
[06:23] <patifa> who was asking about encryption?
[06:23] <joetheodd> What are the criteria for a hardy-proposed package?
[06:23] <zcat[1]> what matters more is that you shut down windows cleanly.. the installer will NOT even attempt to resize a dirty filesystem
[06:23] <Lardarse> ronnyr: what are you looking for?
[06:23] <OSUKid7> dessnr: doesn't look like it's in prefs > encryption & keys... and I have no idea what setting to look under in administration > authorizations. one thing I noticed is when I run a command like ssh -N the.host & it responds saying "Enter passphrase for key..." and "Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-with-mic,password)."
[06:24] <OSUKid7> dessnr: and that's after I correctly logged in with `keychain`
[06:24] <Kohlrak> 20G for ubuntu? Are you kidding me? I can last on 5 gigs for a month =p
[06:24] <XiD`> Deepthought: so editing the partition to create a new 30gb section + 2 gig swap section is safe enough given i'm well defrag'd? (which i am)
[06:24] <beebeentu> Wow. I have this horror story and no one even responds.
[06:24] <dessnr> OSUKid7: let me have a quick look at authorisations for a min.
[06:24] <zcat[1]> beebeentu: missed it. Go again?
[06:24] <OSUKid7> dessnr: ok, thanks for your help
[06:25] <XiD`> Deepthought, Lardarse: i'm being anal about this because i do not have enough spare room to back up everything on my drive. risking data loss is inevitable
[06:25] <XiD`> ah sorry about the language again. sailor mouth =x
[06:25] <JDSBlueDevl> hi, I occasionally get a "segmentation fault" error when trying to run Firefox.  It's not happening now, but how can I prevent it from happening in the future?
[06:25] <joetheodd> beebeentu, people generally don't respond unless you ask a question or say something. Just saying you're afraid to install HH doesn't really warrant a response, generally
[06:25] <beebeentu> zcat[1]: Yesterday I tried to install HH on my laptop. I have had Edgy, Feisty and Gutsy installed on this machine previously. I downloaded and burnt the iso and chose to install. I selected manual so I could set up a / and a /home partition. I filled in a few more details and when it started to format my partitions my screen went blank (not black - blank). I waited but it didn't come back after 30m. I restarted the machine and went thr
[06:25] <Kohlrak> do you even have the 5 gig for linux and the 2 gig for the swap? o.O
[06:26] <XiD`> I have absolutely tons of space on this hard drive, 100gb in fact, but my other drives are nearly chock full
[06:26] <patifa> XiD`: Partition resizing isn't very bad provided the partitions being resized are in good order
[06:26] <OSUKid7> dessnr: it's possible that the first time I tried to ssh using this key on hardy, gnome prompted me for my key passphrase and I may have typed it incorrectly... I figured it would ask me again though, but it definitely seems to be ignoring the keychain/ssh-add passphrase
[06:26] <beebeentu> joetheodd: I did explain in quite a lot of detail
[06:26] <Ham44> #list
[06:26] <Deepthought> XiD`: it's never 100 % safe to shrink with parted, but I've never had any problems on ntfs; like the other guy said, don't loose power !   And DO back up stuff that is really important; else It's not too risky too take the chance (wich is not that grave, really)
[06:26] <Virtue> how can I end task ?
[06:26] <kindofabuzz> ronnyr: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=122402  very long thread, but make sure you read my posts probly on one of the last few pages, i fixed the original posters errors, but good guide
[06:26] <Waffle> beebeentu, the end of your message is missing... unless you ment to end with "and went th"
[06:26] <Lardarse> XiD`: also, i haev no resizing experience... my only computer that dual boots (this one) has a seperate hard drive for ubuntu
[06:26] <joetheodd> beebeentu, oh, i must have missed that.   It's not happening now, but how can I prevent it from happening in the future?
[06:27] <Virtue> I launched a game and everything zoomed (game isn't running too ^^)
[06:27] <Hydrogen> JDSBlueDevl: Don't run firefox
[06:27] <Hydrogen> :>
[06:27] <dessnr> OSUKid7: yeah there doesn't seem to be anything that will help you in admin > authorisations...  But have you had a look at this?  http://www.funnestra.org/ubuntu/hardy/#ssh-public-key-authentication
[06:27] <XiD`> Lardarse patifa Deepthought: thanks for the help guys, i'm just gonna have to save what i can and hope for the best :>
[06:27] <Virtue> Is there any option like task manager ?
[06:27] <JDSBlueDevl> haha, funny
[06:27] <JDSBlueDevl> no, really, is there a fix?
[06:27] <bazzieb> everytime i use SUDO in the terminal it gives me the error, sudo: unable to resolve host (hostname)
[06:28] <Deepthought> XiD`: good luck , may the Ubuntu be with you !
[06:28] <bazzieb> why is this
[06:28] <JDSBlueDevl> because it just started happening again
[06:28] <beebeentu> Waffle: I can see my whole message but here is the rest:  I restarted the machine and went throught the process again. again the screen went blank. I restarted but the screen didn't come back so I turned it off for a while. When I started it again I got to the install/boot/etc options and it went blank. Now it won't come back even after being left off over night. Does anyone have any ideas?
[06:28] <Lardarse> JDSBlueDevl: i would suggest posting on the forums
[06:28] <zcat[1]> JDSBlueDevl: without knowing what's causing the problem, we can't say when / if /how it might be fixed
[06:28] <patifa> bazzieb: You change your computer name?
[06:28] <bazzieb> no
[06:28] <bazzieb> its the one i used when installing 8.04
[06:28] <zcat[1]> beebeentu: sounds like a hardware problem. Laptops die sometimes, y'know.
[06:29] <patifa> bazzieb: Did you upgrade from 7.10 or ealier?
[06:29] <OSUKid7> dessnr: oh very weird. when I run ssh-add .ssh/my_key, it then lets me ssh to that host correctly/no prompts... yet when running keychain .ssh/that_key, as I did in gutsy, it fails
[06:29] <Deepthought> XiD`: I never have started win again, even though I' m hooked to the gamez, playing with linux has kept me happy ever since my first installl (by the way, gamez; check out Armagettron !); no regretz .. !  ;-)
[06:29] <kindofabuzz> JDSBlueDevl: check here and see if it's a known bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/
[06:29] <beebeentu> zcat[1]: well it's pretty bad timing then to happen while installing HH.
[06:29] <dessnr> OSUKid7: It even goes on to explain how you can set it up later, so that you only have to type it once.
[06:29] <XiD`> Deepthought: Armagettron? :O
[06:30] <j> So... I just upgraded to 8.04 LTS. It looks prettier, but it "lost" my video card driver (nVidia 169.12 - 7600GS) and doesn't recognize my monitor (Acer AL2216W). I've configured it in the "crappy graphics mode" when it didn't start up properly. I tried to restore settings from a 7.10 xorg.conf and no dice. Anyone have any ideas?
[06:30] <dessnr> OSUKid7: yeah it can get confusing between distributions...
[06:30] <XiD`> Deepthought will check it out ;) thanks for the help again
[06:30] <zcat[1]> beebeentu: yeah. But when else does your whole system (drive, cpu, memory) get hammered on for 30+ minutes solid...
[06:30] <OSUKid7> dessnr: right, that's what I had setup with keychain... keychain is nice since it uses ssh-ask-pass to ask you via gnome... but I suppose I'll switch to using ssh-add for now
[06:30] <bazzieb> patifa i did a fresh install of 8.04 but i kept the name the same
[06:30] <Deepthought> XiD`: it's a totally cool 3d version of the old game with two lines forming from motor-cycle, don' t run into walls or line from cycle, like in the movie Tron
[06:31] <Deepthought> XiD`: OLD SCooooollll
[06:31] <JDSBlueDevl> zcat[1]: it might have something to do with scim.  But when I try to remove that, it also wants to remove a whole bunch of programs, like F-Spot.  How integrated is SCIM?
[06:31] <XiD`> haha
[06:31] <beebeentu> zcat[1]: It only seems as though the screen in blank though. The machine still starts up. There is still harddrive noises, lights etc.
[06:31] <Deepthought> XiD`: made new !
[06:31] <arvind_k> j envy??
[06:31] <dessnr> OSUKid7: it can't hurt.  make side notes on some paper to get used to the changes, thats what i tend to do.  it embeds the differences between distributions into my mind.
[06:31] <cvd-pr> usp
[06:31] <patifa> bazzieb: Hard to tell....  Basically sudo can be used to administratively access another machine on the netowrk.  Something's wrong with the networking setup, so sudo dies when trying to be used.
[06:31] <XiD`> Deepthought: Ext3 yes?
[06:31] <zcat[1]> beebeentu: your backlight inverter just died, I think. Connect an external monitor and see what it's doing
[06:31] <Deepthought> XiD`: you bet ya that's the file-sys you want
[06:31] <bazzieb> cool let me check some settings
[06:32] <bazzieb> thank you
[06:32] <DeltaSlaya> What do I need to install so my G1 key doesn't have the same keycode as my F1 key, etc.
[06:32] <XiD`> Deepthought: and i create a seperate 2gb "swap" partition for RAM usage?
[06:32] <patifa> bazzieb: Good luck changing them w/o sudo access.
[06:32] <XiD`> Deepthought: err, i suppose thats page file usage?
[06:32] <zcat[1]> beebeentu: if you're lucky you can get a replacement cheap on ebay .. if you're not lucky, it generally costs more than a new laptop.
[06:32] <arvind_khadri> j try envy
[06:32] <beebeentu> zcat[1]: I tried that but nothing comes up on it. I tried connecting the montior to another laptop but nothing comes up on it either. I don't really know how to check it another way.
[06:32] <OSUKid7> dessnr: yeah, doesn't really make sense to me why it broke in hardy though... only think I can think is I mistyped my passphrase into that gnome prompt, but it's clearly using the ssh-add list and not keychain, which doesn't make any sense to me
[06:33] <Deepthought> XiD`: sorta depends on your system memory (RAM), and yes it' s page file.   UUnder 1 gig RAM go twice your ram, over stick to 1 or 2 gig (2 is safe, and max)
[06:33] <dessnr> OSUKid7: nor i.
[06:33] <zcat[1]> beebeentu: you have a 'fn' key or something? On mine there's a blue FN key and a picture of two screens above one of the numbers.. that switcheds between the lappy screen and external
[06:33] <beebeentu> zcat[1]: When you connect an external monitor to a laptop, should the image come up straight away or do you generally need to do something else to get an image.
[06:33] <darknessinc> for amarok, what dist do i choose if i have  ubuntu hardy
[06:33] <OSUKid7> dessnr: alright... maybe I'll look into that possible bug more later then. for now I'll just use ssh-add... thanks for your help!
[06:34] <zcat[1]> beebeentu: depends on the laptop. Mine will use an external monitor if it's attached at powerup. Otherwise I have to switch it from the keyboard
[06:34] <dessnr> OSUKid7: you're welcome.
[06:34] <Kohlrak> night all, i might be back tomarrow if i have time to help peeps
[06:34] <Jordan_U> darknessinc, What do you mean? Install it through Applications -> Add / Remove
[06:34] <XiD`> Deepthought: i'm now having issues with a "Too small size" error when trying to create the new partition. would you mind taking this to a PM?
[06:34] <Itai> darknessinc, you can install from the repos
[06:34] <beebeentu> zcat[1]: I've got one on F3 that looks like a laptop side on and then a / and a box. I tried that but nothing happened. I tried the same thing on another laptop and got nothing on that either though
[06:34] <DeltaSlaya> What is the thing I need to install so my G1 key doesn't have the same keycode as my F1 key, etc.
[06:34] <darknessinc> oh. lol  sorry didnt know
[06:34] <Itai> darknessinc, sudo apt-get install amarok
[06:35] <zcat[1]> beebeentu: I wouldn't think the ubuntu install caused it though.. except perhaps just having the alptop working hard for a half hour, which is generally not typical useage for a laptop..
[06:35] <sensae> I still can't get NFS to connect for the life of me
[06:35] <Don_Miguel> !bugs
[06:36] <Deepthought> XiD`: to small size ?   Could it be you mixed up MB and GB ?  I know I have in some occasions, it happens.. ;-)  Check the free space left by shrinking the part
[06:36] <dessnr> !encrypt
[06:36] <XiD`> Deepthought: i'm inputting 30000 mb as my partition size (30 gb)
[06:36] <dessnr> !encryption
[06:36] <zcat[1]> !luks
[06:37] <zcat[1]> hmm..
[06:37] <kindofabuzz> sensae: http://czarism.com/easy-peasy-ubuntu-linux-nfs-file-sharing
[06:37] <jameswf-home> interestingly my grub issue was @ http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=499596
[06:37] <Deepthought> XiD`: I mean, check if there is actually 30 Gig available; you did the shrink, right ?   Couyld be there's 30 MB available, that happened to me twice, mixing up the numbers and the g's and the m's
[06:37] <zcat[1]> brb.. installing hardy on my laptop.. just going to check it hasn't killed it ;)
[06:38] <Deepthought> XiD`: also, if you make part in empty space, just go with what it offers, then you know it'll fit
[06:38] <XiD`> Deepthought: i see where my problem is now. i have yet to shrink the partition, and i do not know how to do that. where can i shrink it?
[06:38] <DeltaSlaya> What do I need to install so my G1 key doesn't have the same keycode as my F1 key, etc.
[06:38] <sensae> kindofabuzz: ty
[06:38] <j> So... Nobody has any idea how I can get my monitor and video card working again?
[06:39] <balleyne> I'm trying to mount an external drive that's having problems, think it might be dead. There's no sign of it when I plug it in. Is there a log file I can check for errors in detecting the drive when I plug it into a USB port?
[06:39] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: works. 99%. Will my changes (to make ssh -X and vnc work last after the next server reboot?
[06:39] <zcat[1]> balleyne: dmesg or /var/log/messages
[06:39] <Deepthought> XiD`: OK, click righ on part you wanna shrink, choose resize/move, move the sliders to where you want' m (some will move, some will not, just try), and the click on APPLY in the menu bar; and go for coffee.. and coffee... and cofffe (or not, it depends)
[06:40] <balleyne> zcat: thanks
[06:40] <XiD`> Deepthought: and all of this is within the Install wizard partition screen?
[06:41] <Streettt> Why is it when I go to YouTube , Meta Cafe I can't hear any of the videos?
[06:41] <j> I mean; I tried installing the driver again (as root) in recovery mode from Grub but when I went to telinit 3, it just started X (and I can't install the driver with X running. I'm feeling like a friggin' noob here.....
[06:41] <Streettt> Headset check is good
[06:41] <XiD`> Streettt: flash plugin not working?
[06:41] <balleyne> Streettt: Pulseaudio and flash hate each other... are you in Hardy?
[06:41] <Streettt> the videos look great
[06:41] <Streettt> so flash is working
[06:41] <Deepthought> XiD`: ehm, it is if you choose the bottom option, wich is manual if I' m not mistaken; this will start up gparted where you' l  fuind graphical representation of yer discs and the possibilities I talked about; I thought you were already in there.. are you ?
[06:42] <Streettt> I am on the most udated version of Ubuntu
[06:42] <Streettt> 8.04
[06:42] <balleyne> Streettt: It's Pulseaudio that flash doesn't get along with. You can revert to ALSA if you want, which should fix the problem... I've taken the opportunity to try out Gnash, lol
[06:42] <Brent^> Streettt: kill the process for Pulseaudio and restart firefox and sound should work fine again
[06:42] <XiD`> Deepthought: yes, i went to the manual option. however, when i right click on the desired partition (the one that encompasses my entire drive)...
[06:43] <Deepthought> XiD`: no, click on the li ne in the list, not the garphical thing
[06:43] <Streettt> Ok..so I go to add/Remove and search for Pulseaudio
[06:43] <Deepthought> the line
[06:43] <darknessinc> what is used for downloading on linux limewire or  torrents?
[06:43] <balleyne> Streettt: System -> Preferences -> Sound, and change everything to ALSA. That should fix flash... though I'm not quite satisfied with that myself, I'd prefer to find a way to get it to work properly in PulseAudio (which is the default in Ubuntu 8.04)
[06:43] <XiD`> Deepthought: i only get the option to Edit it or Delete it
[06:43] <Deepthought> XiD`: hm..
[06:43] <Streettt> ok doing now
[06:44] <Deepthought> XiD`: lemme think...
[06:44] <cognatus> haha nice nick Deepthought
[06:44] <balleyne> Streettt: I'm not sure if there's anything you'll need to restart... at the very least, try restarting Firefox...

[06:45] <XiD`> DeltaSlaya: was someone helping you with G15 logitech keyboard?
[06:46] <JDSBlueDevl> My desktop is GNOME
[06:46] <DeltaSlaya> No, not really.
[06:46] <Deepthought> XiD`: Could it be you already made that shrink but didn' t do APPLY ?      Is the APPLY symbol green and clickable ?   if so do it, see what the list sez and if you agree, the either ok or cancel
[06:46] <cognatus> my hardy heron just up and reboot on me. no BSOD/kernel panic, no nothing. it happened immediately when I clicked on a firefox tab that i had, just previously, opened in the background. the title was "ubuntu - gutsy"... does anyone know of this happening? CAN this happen!?!?!

[06:47] <cognatus> i know, i mean there was no error message
[06:47] <PEDIK> hey guys, im trying to install NVIDIA drivers and it says Extraction Failed, Signal caught, cleaning up
[06:47] <XiD`> Deepthought: i have not run the program "gparted" that you are discussing. is this built into the Installer system itself, or do i have to run gparted manually,
[06:47] <kindofabuzz> sensae: try editing /etc/hosts on the server, and add your cleint ip address and hostname
[06:47] <cognatus> it just rebooted like it might if one were to wire a usb port incorrectly
[06:47] <XiD`> Deepthought: shrink it, and THEN use the installer wizard?
[06:47] <ariqz> I suspect my video drivers are causing my system to hard lock in wine, but I'm not positive. How can I verify if the drivers are buggy?
[06:47] <Itai> PEDIK, how are you trying to install the drivers?
[06:47] <balleyne> Streettt: (trying to rephrase this more concisely) From what I've been able to gather, the flashplugin-nonfree (with Pulseaudio) will (a) lock up all the sound in the system if nothing else is using sound, or (b) produce no sound if the sound card is already in use... I've found this doesn't happen when using ALSA, but I'm not sure what needs to be reset (if anything) after changing the settings... and more imp
[06:47] <balleyne> ortantly, I've no idea how to get it working with Pulse
[06:47] <cognatus> isn't gparted the partition editor that the installer uses?
[06:48] <starcannon> cognatus my firefox icon was wiggin out to, I reset gnome-panel by cleaning out my old /home/starcannon stuff rebooted and reset up things, and all is well, something about the way things were set up in gutsy didn't jive well with hardy i guess
[06:48] <Deepthought> XiD`: yes, it's in the installer, it gets started when you choose manual partition
[06:48] <JDSBlueDevl> ok, got an unrelated problem.  I can't get scrolling bars in some of my windows in GNOME, like the terminal window.  How do I get them working?
[06:48] <sensae> kindofabuzz: nope
[06:48] <cognatus> but i had never installed gutsy
[06:48] <XiD`> Deepthought: i understand where our confusing is stemming from, then. GParted has not started until now, when i just manually ran it from System>Admin
[06:48] <starcannon> cognatus oh, i-dunno-then doh
[06:48] <kindofabuzz> sensae: you'll have to reboot for it to read the host again i think. maybe not
[06:48] <Deepthought> XiD`: don't quite get yer last remark; you are already in the install wizard ?
[06:48] <cognatus> !partition | XiD`
[06:49] <cognatus> !GParted | XiD`
[06:49] <artificialsynaps> I'm having an issue VPNing into my windows machine, does anyone have any experience with this?
[06:49] <Brent^> artificial:I have some but not a ton
[06:49] <XiD`> :)
[06:49] <XiD`> Deepthought: when i ran the installer, GParted did not correctly run. I am now in Gparted and using the sliders as you explained before. its all becoming clear now
[06:49] <Deepthought> XiD`: Oooohhh, wait, you'r not yet installing, you' re still using the live-system (ie you booted the disk and ended up in Ubuntu and palying around with it now ) ?
[06:50] <akatsuki> hello everyone
[06:50] <XiD`> Deepthought: yes, lol, sorry if i did not make this clear
[06:50] <cognatus> hi akatsuki
[06:50] <Streettt> Nope no go..
[06:50] <cognatus> XiD`,  you wouldn't happen to have any raid wouldja?
[06:50] <Deepthought> XiD`: well, at least you still have a handle on your situation  <glupek>
[06:50] <XiD`> cognatus: my computer supports raid, but i am not using it (none of my HDDs are in raid format)...in fact, i don't even have the drivers instaleld
[06:51] <artificialsynaps> Basically my pptp VPN is telling me that there is a connection error, but I have no idea what the error is!
[06:51] <Deepthought> cognatus: Oh, yeah, drive the noob up the wallz... ;-)
[06:51] <sensae> kindofabuzz: I restarted, still no dice
[06:51] <DeltaSlaya> XiD`, did you suggest you could help me with G11?
[06:51] <akatsuki> I having infinite pain trying to make emerald work.. i download the repositories.. i even active the non-gpl'd ones.. and when i select a theme does not appear
[06:51] <akatsuki> i dont know what is going on
[06:51] <artificialsynaps> When you select the gateway for the VPN, do I put in the local address of my windows machine, or something different?
[06:51] <XiD`> DeltaSlaya: i was hoping you were getting G15 support and was going to hop on that bandwagon, sorry :)
[06:51] <Streettt> Test from Sound Capture is coming up silent
[06:51] <zcat[1]> akatsuki: alt-F2 and type 'emerald --replace'
[06:51] <o3tjo3> ooi
[06:51] <sensae> kindofabuzz: I'm doing a showmount -e (server) on the client, and it shows the damn share and the client's IP address
[06:51] <DeltaSlaya> XiD`: Oh ok, no worries.
[06:51] <Streettt> All others read USB Audio
[06:52] <Brent^> artificial: try putting in the local network IP for the windows machine
[06:52] <DeltaSlaya> Who knows anything about the following and what each does?  g15composer, libg15, libg15render and g15daemon
[06:52] <joetheodd> What is the criteria for a proposed package?
[06:52] <Streettt> Default Mixer Tracks Reads: Logitech Alsa Mixer
[06:52] <kindofabuzz> sensae: go over that guide again, that's the one i followed, and remember, google is our what class?
[06:52] <akatsuki> zcat i did already
[06:52] <akatsuki> now ?
[06:52] <joetheodd> !package libg15 | DeltaSlaya
[06:52] <akatsuki> i try again?
[06:52] <XiD`> Deepthought cognatus: i'm finally on the right track here, shrinking the partition to create free space.
[06:52] <Streettt> Close out refresh clean back up to YouTube and No Sound..
[06:53] <doug> i need a player that will not lock up on me. gxine and movie player and mplayer lock up on me so does vlc. can someone help me on why my .avi files lock up on me when i try to play them?
[06:53] <cognatus> ahh yep yep partitioning is actually quite fun once you get the hang of it
[06:53] <DeltaSlaya> !libG15
[06:53] <Itai> hey is ndiswrapper in the repos?
[06:53] <DeltaSlaya> !g15composer
[06:53] <cognatus> all: how do I open the event log viewer?
[06:53] <DeltaSlaya> !g15daemon
[06:53] <XiD`> cognatus: system log?
[06:54] <starcannon> akatsuki are your video drivers working? when you type "glxinfo | grep render" what is the output? I also think you have to have at least normal visual effects enabled (requires compositing desktop if I member' right) I've noticed emerald won't keep my settings, so i'm just leaving it alone for now myself
[06:54] <cognatus> doug, this may help with identifying why all these players lock up on you
[06:54] <balleyne> Streettt: killall pulseaudio ? If you go a `ps -e | grep pulse` does it show it still running?
[06:54] <Vladimir32tl> if installing ubuntu 8.04 in wubi, will the windows firewall have any effect on ubuntu?
[06:54] <cognatus> mhm
[06:54] <sensae> kindofabuzz: I followed that guide to a T
[06:54] <Flannel> Vladimir32tl: none
[06:54] <cognatus> FYI i found that site that's making heron reboot
[06:54] <Brent^> Streettt:kill the pulseaudio process and restart firefox. you should have your sound back after that
[06:55] <cognatus> it's producing segfaults for some reason
[06:55] <Deepthought> XiD`: gooood; the from there on it should be no problem; just start install from the desktop an go through the motions; if you have made room onthe disc you could do autamtic prtitioning to make stuff easy, or choose manual and ed up in gparted again, wich has no more secrets for you now... remember, make a / partition and a swap of 2 gig
[06:55] <akatsuki> starcannon this appears: direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)
[06:55] <akatsuki> OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[06:55] <Streettt> Lead me through the steps..
[06:55] <Vladimir32tl> Flannel: how can i open a port for transmission or another bittorrent client in ubuntu?
[06:55] <cognatus> doug
[06:55] <Streettt> Do I do this through the terminal?
[06:55] <XiD`> Deepthought: done, and done.
[06:55] <Flannel> Vladimir32tl: Your bittorrent client will do it.
[06:55] <doug> cognatus: when i use dif players i find one i have not used it works but the min i close it same thing as the rest.
[06:55] <balleyne> Streettt: yes
[06:55] <Brent^> Streettt: system->admin->system moniter
[06:56] <XiD`> Deepthought, cognatus: thank you for your help =) seems to be going well now
[06:56] <cognatus> try running one of those media players with System -> Administration -> System Log
[06:56] <Deepthought> XiD`: be sure when you choose auto you don' t wipe out Billy Redmond... ;-)
[06:56] <kindofabuzz> sensae: mess around with the mount options, here the man page for the mount command http://www.linuxmanpages.com/man8/mount.8.php
[06:56] <cognatus> anytime XiD`
[06:56] <doug> cognatus: how do i do that?
[06:56] <balleyne> Streettt: well, either, lol. In the terminal you can run `killall pulseaudio`, or you can use the gnome-system-monitor to do it in a GUI
[06:56] <Deepthought> XiD`: better go manual
[06:56] <XiD`> Deepthought: good call
[06:56] <takebuntu> hi
[06:56] <cognatus> because if ALL media players have the same kind of problem it might be something more fundamental than a software issue (in fact probably IS)
[06:56] <Vladimir32tl> Flannel: you've been a big help, but if you could answer 1 more question: can ubuntu 8.04 read/write to ntfs, and will it see my xp files?
[06:56] <Streettt> Ok.. I am in System Monitor
[06:56] <cognatus> is anyone here brave enough to try the ubuntu-rebooting web site of doom???
[06:56] <Flannel> Vladimir32tl: yes
[06:57] <akatsuki> Starcannon: this apperas... direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)
[06:57] <akatsuki> OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[06:57] <cognatus> enter if you dare: www---ubuntuguide---org
[06:57] <zcat[1]> cognatus: where?
[06:57] <Streettt> What am I looking for in Sys Monitor?
[06:57] <tinytimmytoes> Have an old dell laptop- running 500Mhz Proc, with 128MB ram -- tried Damn Small Linux, not a big fan of the interface.. Tried Xubuntu.. Couldn't get it to finish loading.. tried SLACKWARE.. got "isolinux:Disk error 04, AX = 427b, drive 82 -- any ideas? I'm (probably quite obviously) a linux noob.. but i'm trying..
[06:57] <ApOgEE-> hi, i'm using hp nx9010, i can't get my multicard reader working, do i have to install usb-ohci?
[06:57] <doug> cognatus: how do i do what u said?
[06:57] <Brent^> Streettt: proccess tab -> right click on pulseaudio and kill it
[06:57] <Vladimir32tl> Flannel: once again your help is greatly appreciated - i enjoy the community support linux has to offer. thanks!
[06:57] <Deepthought> XiD`: so you aready made the partitions now ?
[06:57] <akatsuki> hey dougg wazzup..
[06:57] <cognatus> open System -> Administration -> System Log
[06:57] <XiD`> Deepthought: yes, i'm installing the system as we speak
[06:57] <DeltaSlaya> My custom keys, eg G1, are currently bound to function keys, eg F1, because they use the same keycode. What's the minimum I need to do to change their keycode before I can map a few functions in Keyboard Shortcuts?
[06:57] <Deepthought> xid hooh yah !
[06:58] <Deepthought> XiD`: semper fi !
[06:58] <akatsuki> my gdm themes are working now thanks doug
[06:58] <akatsuki> but im having problems with emerald
 cognatus: where?   //   * zcat[1] has quit (Remote closed the connection)
[06:58] <cognatus> coincidence?!?!!?!!
[06:58] <starcannon> akatsuki I don't think your going to meet much success till you solve your direct rendering issue
[06:58] <doug> akatsuki: yw =D cognatus ok i got it open and with a player now what?
[06:58] <ronnyr> kindofabuzz: I just have one problem left. Connecing to the vnc gives ma grey window with a cross in it.
[06:58] <cognatus> now wait until you get that error
[06:59] <XiD`> Deepthought: jarhead? :o
[06:59] <starcannon> akatsuki your video car drivers aren't working or installed one of the 2
[06:59] <cognatus> and scroll allll the way to the bottom of system log and see what it says
[06:59] <ApOgEE-> i wanna get this usb multicard reader working on my hardy, can anyone point me to the right direction?
[06:59] <DeltaSlaya> My custom keys, eg G1, are currently bound to function keys, eg F1, because they use the same keycode. What's the minimum I need to do to change their keycode before I can map a few functions in Keyboard Shortcuts?

[07:00] <cognatus> k doug
[07:00] <Deepthought> XiD`: of course I' m drifting of-topic here, but you have to know in my day-job I help junkies discover computers (and live for that matter), it' s quite a breath of fresh air to help someone WITH brains to fill in the blanks...
[07:00] <cognatus> yeah zcat[1] is't that fuckt

[07:00] <Flannel> !real | ozzloy

Couldn't get it to finish loading..  any ideas? I'm (probably quite obviously) a linux noob.. but i'm trying..  any idea where i might be able to get my hands on an old version of UBUNTU for download? Prefer GNOME type interface..
[07:01] <akatsuki> iwhich is a macbook pro imao
[07:01] <Streettt> killed it
[07:01] <Deepthought> XiD`: You wouldn' t belIEVE how dead a brain can be sometimes...

[07:02] <cognatus> doug, next to the clock on the top panel is there a sound volume icon? if so right click it -> Open Volume Control
[07:02] <starcannon> akatsuki i've heard ATi has gotten somewhat better recently, but I ditched them back before the AMD buyout because they got to where they were hard to use regardless of OS, had to buy 3 different Motherboards before I found one that would actually work with a 9700pro that was it for me
[07:02] <oddalot> oh i see
[07:02] <ApOgEE-> wow... everyone is busy here...
[07:02] <Streettt> That wasn't it
[07:03] <JDSBlueDevl> I can't get my scrollbars to appear in GNOME.  The forums don't have anything really, and when I tried to switch themes, it still didn't work.  How do I fix it?
[07:03] <cognatus> doug i mean what kind of hardware "female plugs" does it have
[07:03] <akatsuki> yeah
[07:03] <Deepthought> ApOgEE-: ya bet ya
[07:03] <akatsuki> but that would be an issue on my macbook

[07:04] <doug> cognatus: yes
[07:04] <JDSBlueDevl> I can't get my scrollbars to appear in GNOME.  The forums don't have anything really, and when I tried to switch themes, it still didn't work.  How do I fix it?
