[13:06] <geeky_goowy> i am trying to connect my new motorokr em30 phone in MSC mode in Ubuntu Hardy.. but it is not getting recognized.. in MTP mode, it gets recognized as a camera.. but 'm not able to browse its contents.. help please..
[13:08] <mellery_> I think a recent update broke my pulseaudio, has anyone else had any problems?
[13:10] <mneisen> Hi, after an update to linux-image-2.6.24-21-server, I still have only the *-19 in grub/menu.lst. Is this normal, or did the update fail?
[13:11] <DrthTater> Hello
[13:11] <scheusso> hi
[13:11] <DrthTater> I'm trying to change the GDM theme
[13:11] <compton> how can I get the list of recommended packages apt-get shows the first time you install?
[13:12] <Nvidiot> mneisen it should auto-add it to the list, so I think something went wrong there
[13:12] <tanto_> hello, i have new partition for my data. it was mounted but i can work on it. what should i do.
[13:13] <DrthTater> I was trying to follow the instructions at the download site for the theme I want : http://rozbarwinek.deviantart.com/art/Ubuntu-pl-GDM-Theme-91085039
[13:13] <mneisen> Nvidiot: That's what I feared. Do you know how I can, well, re-do it?
[13:13] <DrthTater> when I get to the install part, there's nothing to install
[13:14] <Nvidiot> mneisen: you could apt-get remove the package, then reinstall ?
[13:14] <thiebaude> !zip
[13:14] <Wobert_> Hi guys, how can i fix a broken sources.list file ?
[13:14] <mneisen> Hmmm - removing a server-image ... I am not that confident I might be comfortable with that approach.
[13:14] <mneisen> Nvidiot: But thanks, anyway.
[13:14] <aurel42> Nvidiot: (perhaps even apt-get remove --purge?)
[13:14] <Schuenemann> hey, my system restarted after I tried to play a game. Which log should I see to discover the cause?
[13:14] <Nvidiot> mneisen: maybe a reconfigure will do, but I'm not sure
[13:15] <scheusso> i'm having trouble with the 8.10beta: i use hal fdi policy for emulate wheel with my 3rd mouse button. this works, but each time my laptop wakes up after suspend, the policy seems to not work anymore and i have to restart X, has this already been reported ?
[13:15] <mneisen> Nvidiot: Ah, yes, that seems to be a better idea. I will try that.
[13:15] <mneisen> Nvidiot: Thanks for now! :-D
[13:15] <thiebaude> unzip:  cannot find or open /tmp/Ubuntu_pl_GDM_Theme_by_rozbarwinek.zip, /tmp/Ubuntu_pl_GDM_Theme_by_rozbarwinek.zip.zip or /tmp/Ubuntu_pl_GDM_Theme_by_rozbarwinek.zip.ZIP.
[13:15] <thiebaude> Drthtarter, that what i get.
[13:16] <Phantomas> how can i burn a dvd with subtitles which is compatitible with standard dvd players from an .avi and a .srt file?
[13:16] <DrthTater> I have a screenshot, if anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong
[13:17] <magnetron> Phantomas→ you can use the DeVeDe software for creating DVDs
[13:17] <DrthTater> oh
[13:17] <DrthTater> so I shouldn't unzip it?
[13:17] <Phantomas> magnetron: which option i have to select to include subtitles?
[13:17] <thiebaude> Drthtater:I could not open it
[13:18] <Wobert_> Hi guys, how can i fix a broken sources.list file ?
[13:18] <magnetron> Phantomas→ i don't know if DeVeDe support subtitles.
[13:18] <DrthTater> hrm
[13:18] <DrthTater> ok
[13:18] <DrthTater> I'm keep fiddling with it I suppose
[13:18] <mneisen> Nvidiot: dpkg-reconfigure did not work ...
[13:18] <Nvidiot> mneisen: :/
[13:18] <DrthTater> I was just looking for advice, since this is my first linux build
[13:19] <cybernout> where would i find the config file for wep wireless
[13:19] <cybernout> the directory
[13:19] <cybernout> that is
[13:19] <Phantomas> I need subtitles... anyone knows how can i do it?
[13:19] <gribouille> hi
[13:19] <gribouille> I've just built a source package with dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us -S. how can I build the resulting tar.gz source package to get a binary package ?
[13:20] <Wobert_> cybernout, you should never use wep anyway ?
[13:20] <acke> nfs://ip:/share is that the way to mount a nfs share?
[13:20] <mneisen> Nvidiot: A manual call to update-grub did the magic.
[13:20] <cybernout> hehe
[13:20] <Nvidiot> mneisen cool :D
[13:20] <mneisen> Nvidiot: I wonder why the upgrade did not do this.
[13:21] <Schuenemann> hey, my system restarted after I tried to play a game. Which log should I see to discover the cause?
[13:21] <Impy^> Hi Installed xp yesterday on top of ubuntu and it wiped the grub boot loader but then i managed to get it back. Now i need to add xp to the grub any ideas?
[13:22] <jt3k>  "Emulate3Buttons" "False" does not work.
[13:22] <thiebaude> Impy^:It's better to install windows first then ubuntu
[13:22] <cybernout> normally an grub update would show xp again
[13:23] <Impy^> yeah I know but there's a way of adding xp to grub i've tried adding it to menu.lst i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong :(
[13:23] <tanto_> i have new data partition, it was mounted but i can't work on it. what should i do?
[13:23] <cybernout> do sudo fdisk -l
[13:23] <cybernout> to see where xp is
[13:24] <cybernout> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=482670
[13:24] <cybernout> read there a bit
[13:24] <cybernout> on how to

[13:24] <cybernout> !grub
[13:24] <LjL> jt3k: what do you mean it does not work?
[13:24] <FloodBot2> cybernout: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[13:25] <Impy^> cybernout it's on sdb4
[13:26] <jt3k> LjL, I mean, when you click on mouse1 + mouse2 pressed mouse3 but I do not want this
[13:26] <Impy^> so in the menu.lst it should be (hd1,3)
[13:26] <MatBoy> not if it's wise or not, but is it simply possible to remove sudo like you have on a debian system ?
[13:27] <Impy^> right?
[13:27] <LjL> jt3k: show me your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:27] <thiebaude> !sudo
[13:27] <jt3k> I wrote in xorg.conf Option "Emulate3Buttons" "off". but does not work

[13:28] <jt3k> 2LjL -^
[13:28] <MatBoy> thiebaude: ok, but is it done from time to time by people ? I mean, ubuntu has some newer packages :)

[13:28] <kat> % all the time
[13:28] <thiebaude> MatBoy:I wouldn't even know that
[13:28] <kat> it makes my laptop so warm even when its not doing anything
[13:29] <skenderbeu> how many hours i would be banned
[13:30] <LjL> skenderbeu: ?
[13:30] <skenderbeu> yeah
[13:30] <LjL> skenderbeu: sorry, you're not making sense.
[13:31] <skenderbeu> why
[13:31] <skenderbeu> they banned
[13:31] <Smokey> how do i add the repo for the latest nvidia drivers?
[13:31] <skenderbeu> and iam answering how many hours i woulb banned
[13:31] <skenderbeu> would be
[13:31] <Schuenemann> My system either crash or reboot when I play 3d games (openarea or castle wolfenstein)... what could be a cause for that? I've installed nvidia restricted drivers
[13:31] <LjL> skenderbeu: if you have a question about an IRC ban on Ubuntu channels, ask on #ubuntu-ops
[13:31] <LjL> this channel is only for technical support
[13:32] <kat> hey is there any way to set like the maximum processor power like you can do in windows? my comuter gets way warm
[13:32] <Langley> Hi, I'm connected to a server through SSH. I've had a game server opened (the console), but I was disconnected from the internet. Now my question is: Is there a way to resume the TTY the server console is running on
[13:32] <Langley> ?
[13:32] <aurel42> Schuenemann: is that a problem persisting over several driver releases?
[13:32] <skenderbeu> another question how can i find from internet who is calling me in my phone house?
[13:33] <Nvidiot> Langley: this is why you should use "screen" next time. I don't think you can grab it after the fact though :/
[13:33] <LjL> kat: "apt-cache search cpufreq" will show a few packages, but i think it depends on the processor whether these will be effective or not
[13:33] <Schuenemann> aurel42, well, I remember I had it in gutsy too
[13:33] <danuthaiduc>  http://queleimporta.com/downloads/flash10_en.sh <-- THANKS!
[13:33] <Langley> Nvidiot: Thanks. A pity :/
[13:34] <MatBoy> thiebaude: ok :)
[13:34] <aurel42> Schuenemann: could be a hardware problem then, have you tried setting the related BIOS settings to.. uhm... more conservative values?
[13:34] <NBrepresent> hi, can someone help me to troubleshoot sharing a printer on ubuntu? I can see the jobs sent here in the CUPS queue, but they appear as 'Done', and nothing has printed...
[13:34] <skenderbeu> another question how can i find from internet who is calling me in my phone house?
[13:34] <NBrepresent> any ideas?
[13:34] <Schuenemann> aurel42, hmm, no. What related settings?
[13:35] <Schuenemann> I took a look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log and there is no error there.
[13:35] <kat> LjL, what does that do?
[13:35] <aurel42> Schuenemann: yeah, the system wouldn't have any time to actually write any logs when it crashes hard. ;)
[13:36] <Schuenemann> aurel42, I think I have a power problem... not sure it would cause that
[13:36] <aurel42> Schuenemann: if it was an AGP card (ie. not the newest hardware), I would try reducing the AGP settings.
[13:36] <aurel42> Schuenemann: oh, yes, it would.
[13:36] <Schuenemann> it is AGP
[13:36] <bindaasbhai22> hi ..i have a problem with totem player...not sure i am at the right place or not...need help!!!
[13:37] <aurel42> Schuenemann: if you have a problem with your power supply, it's often peaks caused by HD activity or the GPU taking more power that cause hangs or reboots.
[13:37] <Schuenemann> hmm...
[13:37] <Schuenemann> it's this stupid power source with neonlights
[13:37] <GNuBoi> Does Atheros AR928x network card run in out-of-box ubuntu(8.10) installtion i am getting a notebook with this network card
[13:37] <aurel42> Schuenemann: "style over substance", huh? ;)
[13:37] <skenderbeu> yeah it runs
[13:37] <skenderbeu> i have the same
[13:38] <Schuenemann> aurel42, haha. It was the only one available when I needed one :p
[13:38] <LjL> kat: that searches for packages whose names or descriptions contain the word "cpufreq", and lists them.

[13:45] <Langley> Is there a way to connect to a ubuntu server with a GUI?
[13:45] <Langley> (i need that for a program)
[13:45] <jjdiamond> new user here needing help
[13:45] <jjdiamond> anyone?
[13:45] <Photosynthesis> Im trying to install   apt-get -y install --force-yes postfix    but Keep getting interactive config questions! How do I unattend this? Ive tried everything from.. debconf-get-selections and debconf-SET-selections to looking into PUPPET ( but I do not want to go as far as puppet ) I just wanna apt-get unattended setup for postfix (and possilble others!)  Any ideas? Im on ubuntu/debian
[13:46] <LjL> NightKnight: type    dpkg -l | grep "\blinux"   to see a list of them, then remove them using "sudo apt-get remove packagename packagename etc". be careful not to remove the one you're using.
[13:46] <sly2008> there is a way to get somewhere flash for powerpc
[13:46] <compton> how can I view the dns cache?
[13:46] <LjL> Langley: not sure what you mean... view the server's GUI remotely?
[13:46] <dusty_> Does anyone use the T-Mobile Mobile Broadband USB dongles in Ubuntu 8.04 ?? I am having severe trouble getting it to work.. I know its possible to get it to work from what i've read on google but all attempts for me seem to fail.
[13:46] <NightKnight> Thanks LjL! One thing, deleting old kernels won't have a secondary effect, right?
[13:47] <Langley> LjL: Yes, do I have to install an Xserver first?
[13:47] <Bodsda> what packages do i need to install to get compiz working? ive just removed compiz* cause it was causing problems
[13:47] <LjL> NightKnight: it won't
[13:47] <LjL> Langley: no, you need the xserver only on the remote machine (client), not your actual server (yes i know, it seems confusing, but the X *server* is the stuff that gives you graphics on the screen, while the *client* is the program that runs)
[13:47] <NightKnight> Thanks!
[13:47] <NightKnight> See you around and thanks for the help.
[13:47] <jjdiamond> does anyone want to help out a first time user?
[13:48] <compton> yes probably
[13:48] <LjL> Langley: on your server you do need X-related libraries, but those will normally be installed automatically when you install an X program on the server
[13:48] <velko> jjdiamond, just ask your question
[13:48] <jjdiamond> should my hard drives be labeled sda and sdb?
[13:48] <scunizi> !ask | jjdiamond
[13:49] <LjL> !vnc | Langley, or this is another option
[13:49] <NBrepresent> hi, could someone help me to troubleshoot printer sharing from ubuntu to win xp? i followed these instructions ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP ) exactly, and I can see the jobs that i attempt to print from the XP machine in the CUPS web interface, but they just say that they're done... but they weren't printed.
[13:49] <scunizi> jjdiamond, yes.. and your partitions would be sda1, sda2, sdb1, sdb2 etc.
[13:49] <compton> !freenx
[13:49] <velko> jjdiamond, why not. and what is your real question?
[13:49] <dusty_> Anyone ?
[13:49] <jjdiamond> so a is primary drive and b is slave?
[13:49] <Langley> LjL: Is there a way to connect from a windows machine to the linux server? I don't mean SSH
[13:50] <Langley> LjL: So you can see a GUI
[13:50] <LjL> Langley: VNC has several Windows clients available
[13:50] <velko> jjdiamond, no. a is the first drive, and b - the second
[13:50] <jjdiamond> ok thats what i meant
[13:50] <Langley> okay
[13:50] <Rovin> How can I enable "Headphone jack sense" in the Volume Control? I don't have a "Switches" tab
[13:50] <albertico> Langley, VNC
[13:50] <Photosynthesis> apt-get -y install postfix   without prompts... possible? I already tried numerous things... help!
[13:51] <velko> jjdiamond, i'm not sure if the system guarantees that the master is listed first. and you can have up to 2 masters
[13:51] <jl-satyr> irssi
[13:51] <jjdiamond> when i click on places, i see the second drive.  when i open it, it won't let me create a folder
[13:51] <LjL> Langley: also, VNC can provide a Java applet that works from browsers, so you can avoid installing anything on the clients in the first place (if they have Java)
[13:51] <thiebaude> jl-satyr:I use irssi
[13:51] <jjdiamond> all i see is lost and found folder
[13:51] <Langley> Clients mean my windows machine here, right?
[13:51] <LjL> Langley: yes
[13:51] <frojnd> to comple programs, what packages do I need ??
[13:52] <Langley> LjL: thank you
[13:52] <scunizi> !who | jjdiamond
[13:52] <LjL> !compiling > frojnd    (frojnd, see the private message from Ubotu)
[13:52] <velko> jjdiamond, this is maybe a permisson problem. check if your user owns the folder and if it has write permissions on it
[13:52] <jjdiamond> velko i don't know how to do that
[13:53] <velko> jjdiamond, right click the folder and go to properties. select the permissions tab
[13:53] <jjdiamond> velko, all grey
[13:53] <jim_p> what is more lightweight? awn or cairo dock?
[13:53] <peter_> hi
[13:53] <velko> jjdiamond, who is listed as the owner of the folder?
[13:53] <scunizi> velko, jjdiamond a lost+found folder you can't do much with anyway...

[13:55] <jim_p> Nvidiot: samba WILL start on every boot unless you say it not to.
[13:56] <Nvidiot> jim_p: it wasn't started after installing it and rebooting...
[13:56] <velko> !permissions > velko
[13:56] <jim_p> Nvidiot: and for service (sudo service...) to work you need sysvconf-rc installed

[14:00] <Photosynthesis> http://blog.hjksolutions.com/articles/2007/07/27/unattended-package-installation-with-debian-and-ubuntu   why does this not stop the nagging config prompts at installation time? I wanna automate this
[14:01] <jim_p> GreedyB: keep fstab, sources.list, xorg.conf and any other major user created file you want like... conkyrc
[14:01] <jim_p> Photosynthesis: cant you just apt-get install (a ton of packages here) --yes  ?
[14:02] <jim_p> jjdiamond: please repeat your question
[14:02] <epcom> oi

[14:08] <nfusco> Hey all, can anyone point me in the right direction of setting up a VNC server on a Hardy box? I did this many years ago and it seemed to be easier! Its seems there is a default vncserver in hardy (vinagre), but this doesnt suit - to use this method you have to be logged into X on the box itself, I need this not to be the case, I remember years back when I set this up, it was something like "vncserver -geometry 1024x768" was wh
[14:08] <nfusco> at i used to have to do to get it running, can anyone help me out/point me in the right direction?
[14:08] <oliebol> It can be dealt with with a simple notice, so it could be in inteprid anyway
[14:08] <Mnemonic^> jim_p: Ok, I will look into those.. Have you tried them?
[14:08] <toddoon> jim_p: but vlc hasnt sound
[14:08] <jim_p> toddoon: change vlc sound output to alsa
[14:08] <toddoon> jim_p: ok
[14:09] <jim_p> Mnemonic^: i recovered some photos from a cf card a few months ago
[14:09] <jim_p> Mnemonic^: with photorec i mean
[14:09] <velko> BadElvis, put these lines in /etc/network/interfaces: iface eth1 inet static \\ address <IP_ADDRESS> \\ netmask <IP_ADDRESS> \\ gateway <IP_ADDRESS> \\ auto eth1
[14:09] <velko> BadElvis, adapt the numbers to your setup
[14:10] <jim_p> thiebaude: /dev/fd0  	/media/floppy  	auto  	rw,noauto,user  	0 0
[14:10] <Mnemonic^> jim_p: Ok .. But that is not a ext3 partition.
[14:10] <thiebaude> ok, jim_p, thanks
[14:10] <BadElvis> velko: atm, my /etc/network/interfaces isauto lo \\ iface lo inet loopback
[14:10] <Mnemonic^> jim_p: Or .. Normally it would not be
[14:11] <BadElvis> velko: i expected to find my wlan adapter wlan0 there.
[14:11] <velko> BadElvis, yea, comment these lines and put the addaptation of mine
[14:11] <jim_p> Mnemonic^: well, you never know until you try. i think it relates to the filesystem, but its not that important
[14:11] <jim_p> thiebaude: you are welcome
[14:11] <velko> BadElvis, yes. my example assumes wired connection
[14:11] <BadElvis> velko: ok, i am using wireless. what kind of device is lo?
[14:11] <nfusco> Anyone?
[14:11] <velko> BadElvis, no idea. i use wired
[14:12] <Nvidiot> lo = loopback
[14:12] <BadElvis> ok, thanks
[14:12] <BadElvis> hmm, i would like to configure a static ip for my wlan adapter called wlan0
[14:12] <Mnemonic^> Thanks..
[14:13] <jim_p> you are welxome
[14:13] <jim_p> BadElvis: you know stull like subnet and gateway for it?
[14:14] <tanto_> i have 70 GB data which mounted in /media/disk. how to mount it permanently
[14:14] <Nvidiot> tanto_: add it to /etc/fstab
[14:14] <jim_p> tanto_: through fstab
[14:14] <Wobert_> What is the easiest way to fix a broken sources.list
[14:14] <BadElvis> jim_p: gateway is ...1.1 and subnet is the usual
[14:14] <joaopinto> tanto_, sudo umount, and remove it from fstab
[14:15] <Wobert_> What is the easiest way to fix a broken sources.list
[14:15] <BadElvis> jim_p: i checked with ifconfig
[14:15] <joaopinto> oh, mount, add it :P
[14:15] <kc8pxy> I've seen my riend manually edit which alsa drivers to load.   how do i do that?
[14:15] <jim_p> BadElvis: sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[14:16] <BadElvis> yes, but there is no wlan0 device. only the loopback device
[14:16] <shell> Wobert_,  show the sourcelist ?
[14:16] <jim_p> BadElvis: can i pm you the lines?
[14:16] <chills> hey guys this might sound stupid.. but i deleted my desktop panel .. now that i add it it comes on the top of the screen how do i bring it to the buttom. in kubuntu
[14:16] <BadElvis> yes, sure
[14:17] <shell> Wobert_,  whats the messge from apt-get when u update ?
[14:17] <velko> BadElvis, i think that wireless is handled by the NetworkManager and it assumes DHCP. but i may be wrong. look if you can configure static IP in network manager
[14:17] <tanto_> Nvidiot: jim_p: should i write manually on fstab
[14:17] <jim_p> tanto_: yes
[14:18] <Wobert_> shell, E: could not find package
[14:18] <velko> chills, can't you just drag it with the mouse?
[14:19] <chills> tried.. not wrking
[14:19] <tanto_> jim_p : which mount point is the best. i will use this for data storage only.
[14:19] <GreedyB> jim_p: after backing up my files when re-installing Ubuntu.. when I re-install do I re-install a boot loader?
[14:19] <jepp> wher can i download the movie "the code linux" in hq?
[14:20] <Langley> I've installed xserver-xorg-core and vncserver via apt-get; then started vncserver but I still cannot connect to it, why?
[14:20] <tesseract85> wow, has anyone had any experience with mac4lin?
[14:20] <jim_p> tanto_: inside /mnt
[14:20] <tesseract85> its amazing!
[14:20] <jim_p> GreedyB: yes, it will install itself as usual
[14:21] <tesseract85> if you have a chance to try mac4lin 1.0 rc give it a shot
[14:21] <shell> Wobert_,  maybe its not source.list beinng, broken but rather the
[14:21] <tanto_> jim_p : for <dump> and <pass>, what should i fill.
[14:21] <shell> pakcage name is wrong or you need to add some repository to get that specific package
[14:22] <jim_p> tanto_: 0 0
[14:22] <Wobert_> shell, well i tried putting diffrent "standart" types into the file, so its broken now for sure
[14:22] <Wobert_> shell, it will just tell me error in line 1 - if i try to run it
[14:22] <tanto_> jim_p : ok, thanks a lot.
[14:23] <Langley> I've installed xserver-xorg-core and vncserver via apt-get; then started vncserver but I still cannot connect to it via TightVNCviewer, why?
[14:23] <shell> Wobert_, can you send me your source.list file
[14:23] <Wobert_> ....I could place it in a pastebin
[14:23] <chills> hey guys this might sound stupid.. but i deleted my desktop panel .. now that i add it it comes on the top of the screen how do i bring it to the buttom. in kubuntu
[14:23] <jim_p> tanto_: you are welcome
[14:24] <jim_p> chills: i think you could get more advice from the ones that use kde, in #kubuntu
[14:24] <chills> tried..
[14:24] <Wobert_> shell, http://pastebin.ca/1236931
[14:24] <velko> chills, have you searched the "Control panel" for the panels configuration?
[14:25] <chills> yea
[14:26] <velko> chills, does this behavior exist also for new users? can you drag the panels for a newly created user?
[14:26] <Wobert_> shell, this was a random scource.list from the internet i tryed out...but it did not work, I know its fubar, so im just wondering how to fix this file :/
[14:26] <chills> velko, dont have any other user just this account
[14:26] <velko> chills, then create one
[14:27] <nfusco> Anyone here used/using NXServer?
[14:27] <chills> hmm k wait
[14:27] <XThief> i use free-NX
[14:27] <nonem> How did I list all folders and files in another folder? I know it's "ls" but what was the argument used?
[14:27] <interflo1> After upgrading to Ubuntu 8.10, my broadcom wireless card doesn't seem to work anymore even though it says it's connected.
[14:27] <shell> Wobert_,  yes but i cant get it from that url
[14:28] <bazhang> interflo1, #ubuntu+1 for that
[14:28] <Wobert_> shell, the pastebin is buggin ?
[14:28] <shell> Wobert_,  which ubuntu do u run, gutsy or hardy ??
[14:28] <bazhang> Wobert_, put it on paste.ubuntu.com and give us the url
[14:29] <Wobert_> shell, gusty
[14:29] <Wobert_> shell, and its a server btw
[14:29] <InsomniaCity> will the new NetworkManager in 8.10 support all the openvpn options?
[14:29] <Nvidiot> How do I get ubuntu to start my wireless on boot? there is already a "auto wlan0" in /etc/network/interfaces
[14:29] <Wobert_> bazhang, http://paste.ubuntu.com/62897/
[14:29] <Nvidiot> (together with the relevant WPA options)
[14:29] <albertico> InsomniaCity, #ubuntu+1 for intrepid support
[14:30] <tantor_> give me command-line for removing directory.
[14:30] <Bodsda> tanto_, rmdir
[14:30] <shell> Wobert_,  send me the source.list wob
[14:30] <InsomniaCity> albertico: thanks
[14:30] <bazhang> Wobert_, that seems to be missing a lot
[14:30] <Wobert_> shell, http://paste.ubuntu.com/62897/
[14:30] <tantor_> Bodsda: thanks
[14:30] <Dreamglider> ican anyone help me setup and test remote controll to ubuntu ?
[14:30] <Bodsda> tantor_, or you can use rm -r but be careful with that one
[14:30] <Wobert_> bazhang, yes i had to try and "fix" it, i know this is fubar - so im asking for help, there must be some way of recreating it ?
[14:31] <Tyreus> Hello, cant get my Atheros AR5006X wlan running. Can anyone help me?
[14:32] <s0l1dsnak3123> hi there, I'm having a problem partial upgrading from hardy to intrepid. The Upgrader was hanging at wvdial, so i killed it. Now I'm doing dpkg --configure -a and it's doing the same thing
[14:32] <velko> Wobert_, if you don't want some random sources.list from anyone here you can start the live cd and copy the original one
[14:32] <Wobert_> velko, its a server i have ssh - can i use live cd on that ?
[14:32] <nonem> I want to list all files and folders in another folder. How do I do this? ls -??
[14:33] <velko> s0l1dsnak3123, do you connect to the internet via a modem?
[14:33] <s0l1dsnak3123> nope
[14:33] <Wobert_> velko, i dont care if its random tbh, what I care about is that it works
[14:33] <Wobert_> :D
[14:33] <s0l1dsnak3123> velko: router through wireless
[14:33] <velko> Wobert_, so why not just take some functional file from someone here?
[14:33] <Bodsda> nonem, depends what parameters you want to use but i use   ls -lah /path/to/file
[14:33] <s0l1dsnak3123> velko: it's part of the automatic upgrade
[14:33] <webas> hello..is there any similar program like fraps ? or can fraps be amulated sucessfully in linux?
[14:33] <velko> s0l1dsnak3123, this means you don't need wvdial. just delete this package
[14:34] <Rovin> How can I enable "Headphone jack sense" in the Volume Control? I don't have a "Switches" tab...
[14:34] <s0l1dsnak3123> velko: how can i do that?
[14:34] <pronoy> is it possible to reinstall ubuntu from the cd and not delete any of the downloaded updates and packages...i have a problem with KDE 4.0 and i feel it will be best to revert back to original environment...?
[14:34] <Wobert_> velko, I tryed from my own ubuntu version - it did not work
[14:34] <shell> Wobert
[14:34] <velko> s0l1dsnak3123, sudo apt-get remove wvdial
[14:34] <s0l1dsnak3123> webas: try gtk-recordmydesktop
[14:34] <shell> Wobert_,  deb-src hrc http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy main universe restricted multiverse
[14:34] <s0l1dsnak3123> velko: thanks :)
[14:34] <shell> Wobert_,  deb-src http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy main universe restricted multiverse
[14:34] <shell> Wobert_,  correct top line to this
[14:34] <velko> Wobert_, what do you mean by that? is it from another ubuntu version?
[14:35] <nonem> Bodsda: that only lists the folders, not what's in them
[14:35] <shell> Wobert_,  remove hrc from top line
[14:35] <Wobert_> velko, yes :/
[14:35] <Wobert_> shell, ok :)
[14:35] <Bodsda> nonem, ls -lAhR
[14:35] <albertico> Tyreus, did you install madwifi drivers?
[14:35] <Bodsda> nonem, man ls
[14:36] <Wobert_> shell, <3<3<3
[14:37] <TANATHOS> hi
[14:37] <Bodsda> !hi | TANATHOS
[14:37] <TANATHOS> My 8.04 ubuntu install keeps crashing
[14:37] <Tyreus> Yeah, didnt work. I also tried ndiswrapper. Ubuntu installed the restricted drivers but i cant see the card
[14:37] <TANATHOS> it is a fresh install
[14:37] <TANATHOS> any ideas?
[14:38] <Cool-Nick> i get lots of hits in firestarter, what are these hits???
[14:39] <aurel42> Cool-Nick: bad people looking for vulnerable systems?
[14:39] <velko> Cool-Nick, why worry if they don't come trough?
[14:39] <MyKniGhT> hello all
[14:39] <MyKniGhT> i've got a little question
[14:39] <albertico> Tyreus, did you follow the steps at the madwifi site?
[14:39] <MyKniGhT> how can i see my current version of.... linux-kernel-devel and linux-headers please ??
[14:40] <MyKniGhT> how can i see my current version of.... linux-kernel-devel and linux-headers please ?? which command can give me that ?
[14:40] <Cool-Nick> I'm just asking if these are harmful or dangerous
[14:40] <aurel42> MyKniGhT: in your favourite package manager (synaption, aptitude...)
[14:40] <Cool-Nick> *these hits
[14:40] <Tyreus> As far as i understood them, yes
[14:40] <nonem> Bodsda: Thanks!
[14:40] <aurel42> s/synaption/synaptic/
[14:40] <lockedup> hey, i need help, my computer has no sound after i installed ubuntu
[14:40] <Bodsda> nonem, no probs :)
[14:40] <MyKniGhT> ah yes aurel42 i'll try this :D
[14:41] <Cool-Nick> velko: I'm just asking if these hits are harmful or dangerous
[14:41] <aurel42> Cool-Nick: they might be dangerous if they weren't blocked by the firewall.
[14:41] <webas> s0l1dsnak3123 that program eats all my cpu.. :( and its not very comfortable :(
[14:41] <albertico> Tyreus, check this out: http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/FirstTimeHowTo
[14:41] <Cool-Nick> aurel42: how can i know if they were blocked by the fw?
[14:41] <lockedup> hey'
[14:41] <lockedup> ?
[14:42] <aurel42> Cool-Nick: oh, I assumed that's what you meant by "hits in firestarter"... blocked connections.
[14:42] <scunizi> Cool-Nick, there's no way to tell specifically if they are bad or not.. because they are blocked they were "not invited" to begin with.. that's what you want a firewall to do.
[14:42] <velko> Cool-Nick, no. the firewall blocked them. but you can lookup if the hits target any particular port. this may give you hints what happens if you dual boot any other operating system on this computer
[14:42] <MatBoy> has anyone experience with webmin and virtual hosts on Ubuntu ? it seems one virtual host is recognizing even the IP :S
[14:43] <nonem> I want to create one jpg for every video that I have in a folder. And the jpgs should consist of a couple of screenshots from the video. So every picture should be a preview of what the video contains. Anyone know how to do that?
[14:43] <Tyreus> Do i have to disable the restricted drivers?
[14:43] <Cool-Nick> I have only Ubuntu and most of the hits are for this port: 7080
[14:43] <aurel42> MatBoy: with Apache, the first virtual host will probably get all the requests not going to hostnames defined as ServerName or ServerAlias in other virtual hosts.
[14:43] <godsyn> Seeking software to stream video of all sorts (personal dvd collection ripped to avi, and placed on server), preferably with a php / html frontend so other members on the lan can browse / open.. any ideas?
[14:44] <MatBoy> aurel42: mhh, so.. I should set the server alisasses ?
[14:44] <Cool-Nick> what is 7080 port for??
[14:44] <godsyn> Sorta like mythTV's video plugin... but standalone. VLC would dod the job if it had a frontend.
[14:44] <godsyn> (web based)
[14:44] <scunizi> godsyn, sounds like a multimedia pc.. mythtv, mythbuntu, and others.
[14:45] <Acknix> whtas the best irc client for ubuntu that ISNT irssi or xchat
[14:45] <LjL> !best | Acknix
[14:45] <joaopinto> !best | Acknix
[14:45] <aurel42> MatBoy: depends on what you want to do.
[14:45] <godsyn> scunizi, I'm wanting to avoid the requirement of server / client matching. mythserver is fine, but won't play well with other OSes.
[14:45] <MatBoy> aurel42: run multiple domainnames on that webmin managed server :)
[14:46] <Acknix> pfft
[14:46] <godsyn> looks like i'm stuck w/writing my own PHP / VLC frontend :/
[14:46] <scorpedine> ciao
[14:46] <MatBoy> godsyn: go outside and get some fresh air than ?
[14:46] <aurel42> MatBoy: and you want requests to the ip address or undefined names to go where exactly?
[14:46] <LjL> !it | scorpedine
[14:47] <ryan5620> Can you play dvds on ubuntu, do u have to mount them first?
[14:47] <MatBoy> aurel42: all requests go to one vhost and I want only every vhost listen to his own request name
[14:47] <nonem> ryan5620: You can play iso files without mounting them.
[14:47] <aurel42> MatBoy: we're off-topic, let's take it private.
[14:48] <LjL> aurel42, MatBoy: just FYI, you could also go to #ubuntu-offtopic, which is pretty quiet atm
[14:48] <ryan5620> yes i have done that with .iso but like if i have an actual dvd, rented and just want to play it, movie player says cannot read from source
[14:50] <ufk> i'm using latest ubuntu with apache, after my apache answers a few requests is freeses. any ideas what can it be?
[14:50] <Dreamglider> i have setup ubunt for remote desktop but im only able to test it inside the LAN, can anyone try to log on to it and see if it works ?
[14:50] <ryan5620> none yes i have done that with .iso but like if i have an actual dvd, rented and just want to play it, movie player says cannot read from source
[14:50] <ryan5620> brb
[14:50] <velko> Dreamglider, tell me your ip
[14:51] <magnetron> !dvd | ryan5620
[14:51] <LjL> velko: <IP_ADDRESS>
[14:51] <Nvidiot> Does anyone have a good guide on tuning samba over a gbit link?
[14:51] <LjL> Dreamglider: are you very sure that's a good idea?
[14:51] <velko> Dreamglider, nope
[14:51] <velko> Dreamglider, does not work
[14:51] <magnetron> Nvidiot→ how are you accessing the sambashare?
[14:51] <Dreamglider> LjL i dont know any other way to test it !
[14:51] <Nvidiot> magnetron: windows XP
[14:52] <LjL> Dreamglider: well, letting strangers access your desktop doesn't seem like a wonderful idea either way
[14:52] <velko> Dreamglider, i cannot event ping this address
 yes just a dvd
[14:52] <nonem> ryan5620: try searching for dvd css ubuntu, I think that might be the problem
[14:52] <kruxet> Tips på bra musikspelare  ?
[14:52] <albertico> Dreamglider, I agree with LjL
[14:52] <Nvidiot> Looking at my network speed it shows about 14% usage of the gbit link, I recon it can go a bit faster than that :)
[14:52] <LjL> !se | kruxet
[14:52] <Dreamglider> LjL there is nothing on it, i just installed ubuntu on it
[14:52] <magnetron> Nvidiot→ you should be aware that SMB is a slow protocol and it's quite poorly designed in terms of performance
[14:53] <kruxet> eller vad kör ni för musikspelare ? =)
[14:53] <Adam24> I have a question.
[14:53] <LjL> kruxet: fråga BestBot i #ubuntu-bots också för "what's the best audio player"
[14:53] <magnetron> ryan5620→ read the link that ubottu gave you plz
[14:53] <nonem> kruxet: only english here. I use rhythmbox. it's good enough :)
[14:53] <Dreamglider> kruxet amarok
[14:53] <ryan5620> none ok ya i was just going to ask around if not theres always google magetron ok i will thank you
[14:54] <aurel42> magnetron: got a recommendation for a network file system that works?
[14:54] <magnetron> aurel42→ depends on what you want to do
[14:55] <magnetron> aurel42→ and SMB works. it's just very slow
[14:55] <aurel42> magnetron: the stuff NFS can do, but it should work. ;)
[14:55] <nonem> ryanakca: I don't know exactly how to do it since all my dvds are pirated but that _should_ be the solution to your problem. good luck
[14:55] <albertico> aurel42, NFS, Samba
[14:55] <pronoy> is it possible to reinstall ubuntu from the cd and not delete any of the downloaded updates and packages...i have a problem with KDE 4.0 and i feel it will be best to revert back to original environment...?
[14:56] <aurel42> albertico: well, I have surprisingly persistent problems with NFS on Ubuntu. That's why I'm considering alternatives.
[14:56] <ShanDooo> how is default login on MikroTik v2.9.6 ruter ?
[14:56] <Whitor> Hi, Ive read the the next version of ubuntu 8.10 doesn't support certain Nvidia drivers. I've noticed this on one pc I have with a not so terribly old Nvidia gforce fx 5900.... My laptop also has an nvidia card in it, how can I tell if it is supported or not ?
[14:56] <ShanDooo> user: admin . pass: admin
[14:56] <albertico> aurel42, if you have linux and windows boxes on your ecosystem, them samba may be the way to go
[14:56] <ShanDooo> or samting else ?
[14:56] <ShanDooo> ;d
[14:56] <Whitor> the = taht
[14:56] <nnull> im trying to change voices in festival but i keep getting SIOD ERROR: could not open file /usr/share/festival/voices/english/cmu_us_awb_arctic/festvox/cmu_us_awb_arctic.scm -- any ideas guys?
[14:56] <Whitor> that
[14:56] <DIFH-iceroot> ShanDooo: look at the manual/google
[14:56] <ShanDooo> ok
[14:57] <ShanDooo> tnx
[14:57] <gnusar> can someone explain to me what the application "KNotify" does? does it spy on me? ;)
[14:57] <aurel42> albertico: as magnetron pointed out, Samba is very, very slow. I use it for the Windows boxes, but I hope for something more efficient for the use with Linux boxes.
[14:57] <albertico> aurel42, you should also take into accont the integration with an identity provider (ldap, active directory, etc), I mean, in case you need that
[14:58] <ad_> if i install ibex do I need to redit my fstab to mount /home partition
[14:58] <Nvidiot> I know Samba isn't exactly efficient, but I recon something can be done to make it a *lil* faster than just over 100 mbit :)
[14:58] <aurel42> albertico: nope, it's a trusted (home) network.
[14:58] <ad_> fresh install
[14:58] <albertico> aurel42, do you have a sort of file server in that network?
[14:59] <magnetron> Nvidiot→ you got it up to 100Mbit/s ? i'm impressed
[14:59] <ad_> anyone?
[14:59] <jjdiamond> how do i change permissions to a directory?
[14:59] <aurel42> albertico: yup, that's a Debian/lenny.
[14:59] <magnetron> ad_→ intrepid beta is only supported in #ubuntu+1
[14:59] <Nvidiot> magnetron: well, 100 isn't that hard to get on a gbit link, heh
[15:00] <nnull> im trying to change voices in festival but i keep getting SIOD ERROR: could not open file /usr/share/festival/voices/english/cmu_us_awb_arctic/festvox/cmu_us_awb_arctic.scm -- any ideas guys?

[15:01] <shmengie> jjdiamond: chmod 0755 .
[15:01] <shmengie> that would give full to owner rw to group and everyone
[15:02] <shmengie> if the current directory is the one you want to change.
[15:02] <recon> Nvidiot: just for the record, it's spelled "reckon". that way, I don't get highlighted. :-)

[15:02] <jjdiamond> shmengie, explain to me like i'm stupid
[15:02] <albertico> aurel42, well, then I would suggest you take a look at the FreeNAS project...
[15:02] <LjL> recon: like we'd care
[15:02] <recon> LjL: :P
[15:02] <albertico> aurel42, that would be for your file server

[15:03] <osotogari> can anyone help with deleting files from my trash can?
[15:03] <Nvidiot> recon: oops, sorry >.<
[15:03] <shmengie> jjdiamond: chmod changes permissions on files/directories.
[15:03] <shmengie> it's a command line command
[15:04] <shmengie> if your in a gnome-terminal and you
[15:04] <shell> osotogari,  you cant delete them ?
[15:04] <shmengie> have cd'd into the directory you wish to change perms on.
[15:04] <konsa> hehe
[15:04] <shell> osotogari,  what errror message do you get ?
[15:04] <osotogari> @shell: Nope, i have tried as root too
[15:04] <osotogari> getting a permissions error

[15:04] <gr1ff1n> hi everyone
[15:04] <shell> osotogari,  have you tried from console ?
[15:05] <osotogari> Error removing file: Permission denied
[15:05] <shmengie> you might need to sudo if you don't own the directory

[15:05] <shell> osotogari, can you do a > ls -l
[15:05] <flats> Good morning,  I am running the ultimate edition of ubuntu and I have a laptop running 1920X1280.  When I first login to ubuntu before the desktop and when I exit ubuntu I have screens that look like they out way out of sync.  The normal desktop is OK but these two login and logout screens looks all out of whack.  Anyone familiar with what I'm talking about or how to fix it?
[15:05] <aurel42> albertico: thanks, but my problems with NFS don't seem to be server-side (since they don't affect all clients simultaneously). And I don't need a ready-made fileserver distribution, I'm quite happy with setting things up myself. I was only interested in experiences with other network file systems that could replace NFS in my setup.
[15:05] <gr1ff1n> can anyone tell me what is wmaster0, what is it used for ? please
[15:05] <shell> # ls -l file_name
[15:05] <shell> osotogari, let me see the permissions of the file
[15:06] <aurel42> There is an Ultimate Edition of Ubuntu? Is there Ubuntu XP Home, too?
[15:06] <osotogari> @ shell: Yeah i tried that using the following command sudo rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash/files/*
[15:06] <joaopinto> aurel42, ultimate edition is not an official release, is just a custom edition built by someone
[15:06] <flats> Just a fully loaded edition with a bunch of whistles and beels
[15:06] <soundray> !ultimate | aurel42, flats
[15:06] <flats> even bells
[15:07] <aurel42> joaopinto: ah, I see... probably with Medibuntu etc. already switched on, huh?
[15:07] <joaopinto> aurel42, eventually
[15:07] <Cool-Nick> can i encrypt my connection??
[15:07] <aurel42> flats: ty
[15:07] <shell> osotogari,  think you have wrong permissions in that directory
[15:07] <LjL> Cool-Nick: your connection to what?
[15:07] <beyta> sorry, i try to install tarball into my ubuntu... i have extrace and read file 'intall'. it tell me to type cd and directory.. it success. then .configure... also success. but after that i type make.. terminal shows me command not found... makefile also not found.. why? a lot of ware i try to install be like this..
[15:07] <osotogari> trying to run ls in that directory doesnt bring back any files
[15:07] <joaopinto> Cool-Nick, you either use vpn, for an encrypted connection to a given network, or use encrypted protocols, you do not encrypt your connection
[15:08] <LjL> beyta: what are you trying to compile?
[15:08] <shell> ok put § chmod 755 dir_name
[15:08] <LjL> way to make me waste typing time
[15:08] <flats> I assume there's a setting related to login and logout screens as to what appears and what  the resolution is, but I don't know what it's called or where to find it
[15:08] <shell> osotogari,  change persmissions on that directory
[15:09] <Cool-Nick> LjL, joaopinto: for example: i don't want anyone to know anything about me when i'm chatting
[15:09] <osotogari> done
[15:09] <osotogari> ill try to do that now
[15:09] <LjL> Cool-Nick: that needs cooperation at both ends of the chat.
[15:09] <linuxadmin> lol....
[15:09] <Cool-Nick> like a secure line
[15:09] <soundray> flats: in normal ubuntu, you configure your screen with 'gksudo displayconfig-gtk', but this may or may not apply to ultimate
[15:10] <flats> soundray: worth a try.  brb
[15:10] <joaopinto> Cool-Nick, that has nothing to do with encryption, that is anonymity, and something out of the scope of this channel
[15:10] <Cool-Nick> LjL: do you mean me and freenode?
[15:10] <albertico> aurel42, well man, that was just a suggestion... I also do things myself.  At least the project may help you to see network file system alternatives, since it is a distro designed specifically for that purpose.
[15:10] <LjL> Cool-Nick: no, you and the other party. freenode itself offers no encryption.
[15:11] <LjL> !info pidgin-encryption | Cool-Nick, this is a possibility
[15:11] <aurel42> Cool-Nick: learn about "tor".
[15:11] <Whitor> Does anyone know if the next version of x.org will support nVidia Quadro FX 570M ?
[15:11] <LjL> aurel42: completely useless to encrypt a chat.
[15:11] <flats> soundray: That sets the desktop and is working well.  I'm looking for login and logout screens if that makes any sense
[15:11] <Cool-Nick> LjL joaopinto: what are the sources, books....topics to learn about that?
[15:11] <vock> Just wondering what the difference between Xorg and Xgl is, and if games using 3D would run better under Xgl?
[15:11] <fabiim> hi i'm trying to run a program with needs tcl/tk , but i got the following error message Application initialization failed: Can't find a usable init.tcl in the following directories:
[15:11] <aurel42> LjL: his original request was: "nobody should know anything about him when chatting"
[15:12] <joaopinto> Cool-Nick, google.com
[15:12] <fabiim> how can i install it correctly ?
[15:12] <aurel42> LjL: as has been pointed out, he wants anonymity, not encryption.
[15:12] <joaopinto> Cool-Nick, learn about networking in general
[15:12] <cs_student> Whats the best way to get php / apache on ubuntu?
[15:12] <Whitor> cs_student, USE SYNAPTIC
[15:12] <joaopinto> !lamp | cs_student
[15:12] <Whitor> sorry about the caps
[15:12] <omps> hello all
[15:13] <LjL> aurel42: if that's what he meant, then yes
[15:13] <jjdiamond> i noticed that my numbers keybad isn't working
[15:13] <jjdiamond> oops keypad
[15:14] <aurel42> LjL: I'm not quite sure he knows what he meant. But learning about tor can't hurt.
[15:14] <Wobert_> hmm i wonder what this means ? : Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle attack)!
[15:14] <omps> i do not understand why gnome eat so much of memory..
[15:14] <omps> the nautils anyone having any idea to customize gnome to use less memory
[15:15] <LjL> Wobert_: without context, it's hard to say what it means. but generally speaking, a man-in-the-middle attack is when you're transfering information with someone else, and there is an unwanted third party "in the middle" that has access to the transmission channel.
[15:15] <aurel42> Wobert_: it probably means you have an established an encrypted connection with someone without having checked whether the other side is really the other side. ;)
[15:15] <flats> how can I find my sound card driver?
[15:16] <LjL> !audio | flats
[15:16] <rhsanborn> I just read an article on Ibex and it has exactly what I've been looking for (better bluetooth and mobile internet support). I know it's coming out in 5 days, but is there really much risk in upgrading a little early?
[15:16] <cool_penguin> Hello everybody
[15:16] <Wobert_> LjL, aurel42 im just working on my ssh server it tells me someone might be doing something nasty and i should change some file...but how can i change the file without ssh access :P
[15:16] <LjL> rhsanborn: should ask in #ubuntu+1, we run hardy here
[15:16] <joaopinto> rhsanborn, for intrepid questions please ask on #ubuntu+1
[15:16] <cool_penguin> I was wondering if anybody has installed and using Ubuntu 8.10
[15:16] <aurel42> Wobert_: you are connecting from your workstation to your server and get that message?
[15:16] <rhsanborn> Will do, ty guys
[15:16] <nnull> im trying to change voices in festival but i keep getting SIOD ERROR: could not open file /usr/share/festival/voices/english/cmu_us_awb_arctic/festvox/cmu_us_awb_arctic.scm -- any ideas guys?
[15:16] <paul68> !8.10 |cool_penguin
[15:16] <LjL> Wobert_: the server you're connecting to has probably changed its fingerprint for some reason - can you think of any valid reason?
[15:17] <aurel42> Wobert_: have you reinstalled that server with a fresh OS or something like that?
[15:17] <cool_penguin> lots of broken software??
[15:17] <Wobert_> aurel42, yea i did distupdate
[15:17] <Wobert_> now i get this : http://paste.ubuntu.com/62904/
[15:17] <nyx> hello
[15:17] <Wobert_> aurel42, distupgrade even
[15:18] <aurel42> Wobert_: it might have created a new fingerprint if your old SSH was affected by the SSH-OpenSSL vulnerability.
[15:18] <vock> Just wondering what the difference between Xorg and Xgl is, and if games using 3D would run better under Xgl?
[15:18] <LjL> vock: xgl is a hacked xorg server, and no
[15:18] <LjL> !xgl > vock    (vock, see the private message from Ubotu)
[15:18] <aurel42> Wobert_: on your workstation, you have a copy of the old fingerprint in your ~/.ssh/known_hosts
[15:18] <Nvidiot> hmm, got samba at about 25% of my gbit link now
[15:18] <Wobert_> aurel42, Do you know how i can connect without this error msg ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/62904/
[15:18] <Nvidiot> increased the send/receive buffers :)
[15:18] <aurel42> Wobert_: okay, do you connect to many other hosts by SSH?
[15:18] <vock> LjL awesome thanks
[15:19] <Wobert_> aurel42, no this is the only one
[15:19] <Cool-Nick> how to setup tor???
[15:19] <aurel42> Wobert_: excellent. rm ~/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of the old fingerprint.
[15:19] <aurel42> Wobert_: on the next connection you will get a "new host" message.
[15:19] <RanyAlbeg> what is zcat?
[15:19] <LjL> Cool-Nick: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TOR
[15:19] <Wobert_> aurel42 ....looks scary :/
[15:19] <LjL> RanyAlbeg: "cat" for gzipped files
[15:19] <Nvidiot> wee, 40%
[15:20] <aurel42> Wobert_: you're right. mv ~/.ssh/known_hosts ~/.ssh/known_hosts.old
[15:20] <velko> Wobert_, it's not. do what aurel42 told you and you are all set up
[15:20] <jjdiamond> what is the lost+found folder for?
[15:20] <THE_GFR|WORK> hey Nvidiot do you know how to netinstall debian?
[15:20] <LjL> jjdiamond: files that have lost their inode or something, recovered by fsck
[15:20] <Wobert_> thx aurel42 :) that fixed the problem
[15:20] <aurel42> Wobert_: very welcome
[15:21] <howies> what is the easiest way to create a ad-hoc netowrk with ubuntu
[15:21] <jjdiamond> LjL, can i delete it?
[15:21] <aurel42> Wobert_: remember to do updates more often in the future.
[15:21] <cool_penguin> How does Wicd work in Ubuntu hardy?? does it work well with Madwifi ?
[15:21] <howies> i need some helps
[15:21] <LjL> THE_GFR|WORK: look at this channel's name
[15:21] <flats> Any sound specialists here?  I am running an older dell laptop xps M170.  It seems like I have 2 sound generators.  If I hit mute, I still here sound via another source.  I ran aplay -l and show two card 0 but a device 0 and a device 4.  Is that normal?
[15:21] <LjL> jjdiamond: no
[15:21] <paul68> !adhoc
[15:21] <howies> heh
[15:21] <LjL> jjdiamond: no reason why you should
[15:21] <jjdiamond> LjL, ok.
[15:21] <howies> that helped me

[15:22] <naknomik> I have a folder pair on two computers and I want to always keep it sync'd, in both directions, how do I do that?
[15:22] <aurel42> Bodsda: you could use a squid as transparent proxy to do that, but it's... sick. ;)
[15:22] <Nvidiot> 50 mbyte/sec writes across the network to a samba share. That'll do :D
[15:22] <nnull> im trying to change voices in festival but i keep getting SIOD ERROR: could not open file /usr/share/festival/voices/english/cmu_us_awb_arctic/festvox/cmu_us_awb_arctic.scm -- any ideas guys?

[15:23] <Bodsda> aurel42, im pretty sure i can use the /etc/hosts file but dont know how
[15:23] <paul68> Nvidiot: how do you do that?
[15:23] <LjL> howies: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Adhoc
[15:23] <howies> thank you LjL
[15:23] <paul68> Nvidiot: increase the networkspeed that is
[15:23] <aurel42> Bodsda: no, just changing the IP will only work in select cases.
[15:24] <aurel42> Bodsda: most webservers are "name-based" these days, not IP-based.
[15:24] <Nvidiot> paul68: gbit network plus increase the send / receive buffers for samba from 8192 to 40960
[15:24] <RanyAlbeg> LjL, so it'll display gzipped file contents?
[15:24] <Bodsda> aurel42, ok ty
[15:24] <LjL> Bodsda: just add an entry with the IP address of the server you want them to get, followed by the hostname they'll be typing.
[15:24] <LjL> RanyAlbeg: yes
[15:24] <paul68> Nvidiot: how do you adapt the buffers?
[15:24] <RanyAlbeg> LjL thanks
[15:24] <lucax> whats the name if icon of bookmarks?
[15:24] <drhe|lap> whats the best program to use to burn dvd movie images in ubuntu?
[15:24] <LjL> RanyAlbeg: same for zless and zgrep
[15:24] <Bodsda> LjL, so 69.563.443.111 www.facebook.com           for example?
[15:24] <cool_penguin> Brasero is a good program to burn DVD
[15:25] <LjL> Bodsda: likely, if that's the IP you want them to end up at
[15:25] <Bodsda> LjL, cheers dude

[15:26] <LjL> Bodsda: although, that is not an IP to begin with
[15:26] <aurel42> LjL: ...and it will only work for select target domains.
[15:27] <jjdiamond> can someone please help me with some basic commands
[15:27] <THE_GFR|WORK> could anyone walk me through installing ubuntu with a minimal GUI that would run on a P2 300 Mhz across a network?
[15:27] <paul68> Nvidiot: under general options?
[15:27] <paul68> Nvidiot: and where to put the socket options part
[15:27] <LjL> THE_GFR|WORK: i'd recommend using the minimal CD, if you can put a CD in the computer at all
[15:27] <Ors> Hi there,  I have 26 broken packages according to aptitude (2527 MB). What shall I do with them?
[15:27] <Bodsda> LjL, yeah lol, how can i find the ip of a web page? i pinged www.ubuntu.com and used the ip that it resolved but when it redirects it takes me to http://www.canonical.com/
[15:28] <Nvidiot> paul68: yes, that's under general options
[15:28] <InspectorCluseau> Bodsda, use <IP_ADDRESS> for the ip to direct to
[15:28] <LjL> Bodsda: that's what aurel42 is saying. one IP could host several actual websites. no way to get around that using /etc/hosts
[15:28] <aurel42> Bodsda: if you redirect www.wellknowndomain.com to www.myhomepage.com via hosts, the server hosting www.myhomepage.com will get a HTTP request with "Host: www.wellknowndomain.com", there is no way to know what domain will be served as response except for trying.
[15:29] <paul68> Nvidiot: also for the socket options?
[15:29] <THE_GFR|WORK> LjL: cannot get a CD in since there is NO cd drive and only network boot
[15:29] <Err0r67o3> hi
[15:29] <Bodsda> aurel42, LjL -- thanks i understand now
[15:29] <Bodsda> InspectorCluseau, why would i want to use the loopback?
[15:29] <LjL> !install | THE_GFR|WORK, netinstall instructions are here, i've never used them though
[15:29] <Nvidiot> paul68: that entire line I pasted is one config option to go under [general] in smb.conf
[15:30] <mandark> hey both my firefox and swiftweasel are crashing...plzz help
[15:30] <nnull> !festival
[15:30] <aurel42> Bodsda: on your machine you can control your apache to serve what you want or redirect to anywhere.
[15:30] <Spreadsheet> hello
[15:30] <LjL> !info festival
[15:30] <nnull> anyone know if festival has a channel?
[15:30] <Spreadsheet> ok im in debian but no one is helping me in #debian
[15:30] <Bodsda> aurel42, not running any webservers, just trying to stop family going to certain sites
[15:30] <Spreadsheet> so i tried everything that was possible on my keyring but it didnt work
[15:31] <LjL> Spreadsheet: not a good excuse to ask questions in an unrelated channel, for sure
[15:31] <paul68> Nvidiot: ok got it how to test the connections then ?
[15:31] <Spreadsheet> LjL: ok
[15:31] <InspectorCluseau> Bodsda, I use that to kill any spurious attempts by cookies to reach an outside site
[15:31] <Spreadsheet> but this is a keyring problem
[15:31] <velko> Spreadsheet, what is the problem?
[15:31] <Bodsda> InspectorCluseau, oh, okay
[15:31] <Spreadsheet> so you should be able to help me
[15:31] <Spreadsheet> velko: i forgot a password,
[15:31] <Spreadsheet> but i tried everything that it could be!
[15:31] <aurel42> Bodsda: you can do that by installing an apache and redirecting those sites there. what you do then, is left to your fantasy and ability. you could redirect them where you want or just serve the text ":P" ;)
[15:31] <rogan> How can I get a lsit of realtime processes in terminal

[15:32] <Bodsda> aurel42, cheers dude :)
[15:32] <LjL> Ors: pastebin the output of "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list
[15:32] <Spreadsheet> so what do you recommend i do
[15:32] <Spreadsheet> will making a new user help?
[15:32] <Nvidiot> paul68: my samba client is windows xp, so I just use the network tab in task manager
[15:33] <__doc__> you might find this sociogram interesting http://codeflow.org/ubuntu.png
[15:33] <velko> Spreadsheet, do you mean the gnome keyring?
[15:33] <Bodsda> Spreadsheet, pressing enter lots wont help for sure
[15:33] <Spreadsheet> velko: yes
[15:33] <aurel42> rogan: if I understand the question: for example with top, htop, "ps auxwww"
[15:33] <velko> Spreadsheet, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=349302
[15:33] <aurel42> rogan: I also like pstree for a nice overview.
[15:33] <Spreadsheet> k thanks
[15:33] <bb1> i just installed the release candidate of ubuntu and now it only opens in console mode, why?

[15:35] <jjdiamond> this is very frustrating
[15:36] <jjdiamond> why can't i create a folder in the new drive that i mounted?
[15:37] <LjL> jjdiamond: probably because it's mounted with root permissions only
[15:37] <Ors> Ljl: I am a beginner so not quite sure what to do.  I have put sudo apt-get dist-upgrade in Terminal and it says 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to unistall, 0 not upgraded.

[15:37] <aurel42> jjdiamond: own the biatch!

[15:37] <filth> is there a workaround to this apparent bug?
[15:37] <Ors> Ljl: in aptitude
[15:38] <jjdiamond> LjL, ek3 or whatever it's called
[15:38] <Nvidiot> paul68: only 2.2 mb/sec? Ouch, that's slooooow
[15:38] <jjdiamond> aurel42, how?
[15:38] <LjL> Ors: what did you do in aptitude?
[15:38] <n8tuser1> filth-> i dont think those battery indicators are that accurate
[15:38] <filth> n8tuser1: well, considering the fact that when it reaches 0% it switches off, i'd assume that it is, to an extent.
[15:38] <paul68> Nvidiot: wireless connected
[15:38] <LjL> jjdiamond: ext3. type "ls -l /media/whereveritsmounted", see what the owner and permissions are
[15:39] <Nvidiot> paul68: ohh ok :)
[15:39] <Ors> Ljl: -f
[15:39] <jjdiamond> LjL, it's under /mnt not /media
[15:39] <n8tuser1> filth-> the number 1.5 vs 3.5 hrs are not accurate, i have seen it where it says 100% but in less than 30 minutes by battery needs recharging (in windows)
[15:39] <LjL> jjdiamond: same thing
[15:40] <aurel42> filth: does Ubuntu notice when you go from AC to battery, does it e.g. dim the display?
[15:40] <paul68> Nvidiot:  so I think it's quit ok or not
[15:40] <filth> aurel42: yes.
[15:40] <Nvidiot> paul68: yeah
[15:40] <LjL> Ors: so apt-get isn't complaining about anything but aptitude is? that's weird. anyway, do "gedit /etc/apt/sources.list", and paste it all into the pastebin
[15:40] <barcley> hi
[15:40] <Wobert_> hmm, I cant apt-get update - it tells me something about "lock" -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/62905/
[15:40] <Guest49208> how do I get into superuser mode.. I am using su then it doesnt recognise my password
[15:41] <Lynet> If I want to make a multi-boot CD/usb-key with several different hardy/ibex images, what changes would I have to do to each image? Just the casper paths in the initrds?
[15:41] <aurel42> Wobert_: you have another package manager running, probably.
[15:41] <barcley> is somebody able to help me: I'm searching for a method to move a program automatically (by a script) to another virtual desktop
[15:41] <jjdiamond> LjL, don't understand
[15:41] <Wobert_> aurel42, so many of them - TT
[15:41] <connectrom10> anybody has experience asterisk with ubuntu, getting libpri compilation error
[15:41] <filth> barcley: sshd?
[15:41] <aurel42> Wobert_: you first have to quit aptitude or synaptic (or both) or use them to update the package list.
[15:41] <Ors> Ljl: It says 26 broken packages, 2527 MB
[15:41] <filth> ftpd?
[15:42] <LjL> jjdiamond: type "ls -l /mnt/whatever" and paste the output
[15:42] <NeoNinja_> ugh
[15:42] <saftarn> How do I make my mouse do scrolling?
[15:42] <Guest49208> how to get into super user mode?
[15:42] <Wobert_> aurel42, I do it from a ssh prompt
[15:42] <drhe|lap> what is commond to close dvd rom tray?
[15:42] <shesek> How do I change the date format displayed on the top bar ?
[15:42] <LjL> Ors: ok, i still want to see your /etc/apt/sources.list
[15:42] <barcley> filth: mhm, the gnome virtual desktop?
[15:42] <saftarn> It works on Windows, now I run Ubuntu on vmware and i cant scroll the mouse
[15:42] <saftarn> shesek: click it and change?
[15:42] <jjdiamond> LjL, total 16
[15:42] <jjdiamond> drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 16384 2008-10-26 01:34 lost+found
[15:42] <Wobert_> aurel42, so i have no synaptic packet maneger running (i think atleast)
[15:43] <LjL> jjdiamond: do also "ls -l -d /mnt/whatever"
[15:43] <aurel42> Wobert_: if apt-get tells you it can't work because there's a lock, there's a high probability that another instance of apt-get or another package manager is running.
[15:43] <SeaPhor> my video card, nvidia 8600gt, has 2 VGA ports, i have 2 19" monitors plugged into them, but cant get a signal on the 2nd monitor, anyone know how to dual monitor?
[15:43] <Wobert_> aurel42, rebooting the server should fix it ?
[15:43] <jjdiamond> LjL, drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 2008-10-26 10:45 /mnt/seagate500
[15:43] <Ors> Ljl: what is the pastebin? I know I should know it...
[15:44] <SeaPhor> !pastebin
[15:44] <aurel42> Wobert_: definitely, but rebooting is so... windows. ;)
[15:44] <LjL> jjdiamond: ok that is the problem, you don't have permissions to write to it. try, for a start, "sudo chown yourusername:yourusername /mnt/seagate500"
[15:44] <zezu> whats with all the glx drivers now ?
[15:44] <Wobert_> aurel42, ha ha - indeed, but ill give it a try
[15:44] <aurel42> Wobert_: uhm...
[15:44] <zezu> glx, glx-old, glx-new, envy, envyNG
[15:44] <zezu> wth do i use ?
[15:44] <LjL> confusing huh
[15:45] <LjL> zezu: wasn't one automatically selected for you by ubuntu?
[15:45] <aurel42> Wobert_: your last update worked? I didn't follow all the discussion, but you don't have any currently broken packages on your system, right?
[15:45] <simon_b> hi! anyone had troubles playing dvd's with xine? i get no sound thru spdif...
[15:45] <hardcore> whats the difference between the ubuntu beta release and candidate release?
[15:45] <zezu> LjL: no
[15:45] <saftarn> aurel42: how do i check that or kill it then? i had that problem yesterday and had to reboot
[15:45] <LjL> !beta | hardcore
[15:45] <zezu> matter of fact i manually installed on and it didn't work
[15:45] <Wobert_> aurel42, yes i do - it tells me all of the time :/
[15:45] <LjL> uh, that's not the factoid i wanted to give you, hardcore
[15:45] <aurel42> Wobert_: because they kinda might hurt you when you're trying to reboot.
[15:45] <simon_b> but the sound works with mp3 and other media format
[15:45] <LjL> !intrepid | hardcore
[15:45] <zezu> using generic nvidia driver
[15:45] <Wobert_> aurel42, o.O
[15:45] <zezu> with no glx
[15:45] <aurel42> Wobert_: if it's anything used for booting, the boot process might fail.
[15:46] <Jimmyhat> Can somoene help me with my silly monitor? I just got a new one, and I cannot get the resolution corrext.
[15:46] <jjdiamond> Ljl, ok
[15:46] <LjL> zezu: does "grep nvidia /etc/X11/xorg.conf" say anything?
[15:46] <aurel42> saftarn: "ps auxwww|grep apt" should give you a hint.
[15:46] <Wobert_> aurel42, they are not, im in ssh again - and the update is running but just buggin alot "already had this" - "ignoring that" - not getting anything
[15:46] <quaal> how do you run a program from the terminal and make it detach from the terminal once the window comes up
[15:46] <Wobert_> aurel42, this seems strange since i have never apt-get updated before
[15:46] <Guest60170> hey guys
[15:46] <zezu> LjL, no
[15:47] <finn> add an & quaal
[15:47] <Jimmyhat> anyone help me with my resolution woes? i'm not using ATi, can't be that hard

[15:47] <Guest60170> i have a quicky i have to slave drives that i want to mount when the system start
[15:47] <LjL> zezu: don't install envy if you can avoid it. unless your card is particularly weird, try either nvidia-glx-new or nvidia-glx (your mileage may vary i suppose). see /msg ubottu nvidia
[15:47] <paul68> !screen
[15:47] <finn> that's not what he wanted paul68
[15:47] <Guest60170> not when i click on them
[15:47] <zezu> LjL, and the funny thing is i just went through nvidia setup and then when it crashed after ctrl-alt-backspace i set it up in the config menu there too
[15:47] <zezu> LjL, i selected nvidia-glx-new
[15:47] <saftarn> It works on Windows, now I run Ubuntu on vmware and i cant scroll the mouse
[15:48] <zezu> LjL, , I've got a pretty std 9600GT
[15:48] <paul68> finn I work with screen to do this
[15:48] <saftarn> Mouse works on Windows, now I run Ubuntu on vmware and i cant scroll the mouse, why?
[15:48] <Jimmyhat> Noone then?
[15:48] <aurel42> Wobert_: did you already give us details like contents of sources.list etc.? (via nopaste?)
[15:48] <finn> it's good if you want to reattach, but he just wanted it disattached
[15:48] <zezu> LjL, audio doesn't work either ... new machine is always a royal pain in linux

[15:49] <pronoy_> if i do a fresh installation of ubuntu from cd is it possible to do it without deleting the earlier installed packages ???

[15:50] <Wobert_> aurel42, if i try to install anything it just tells me I have broken packeges
[15:51] <SeaPhor> Jimmyhat, you mayneed to manually add that res to your xorg.conf
[15:51] <aurel42> Wobert_: nopaste us those lines, please.
[15:51] <Jimmyhat> This is done how?
[15:51] <CuraHack> Whitor: downgrade

[15:52] <connectrom10> hi
[15:52] <outbackwifi> pronoy_: i could be wrong but if you choose to format the root partition during the fresh installation, you nuke everything

[16:02] <outbackwifi> shesek: theres no setting; its default behavior; you can cycle thro open windows using alt-tab
[16:02] <Tumie> n8tuser1: my only problem is, that i'm running the alternate cd, but if i press F4, and select Install a command-line system.. it doesn't react,,
[16:02] <cs_student> When trying to access my index.php in /var/www/ from firefox using http://localhost/ I get "Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0
[16:02] <cs_student> Fatal error: Unknown: Failed opening required '/var/www/index.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in Unknown on line 0"
[16:02] <Ors> LjL: Sorry, you are right.  Anyway, no difference: 0 package will be installed, upgraded or removed.
[16:02] <FloodBot2> cs_student: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:03] <patrickod> hwilde: its not getting anything, just sending out discover requests
[16:03] <Dextorion> hwilde, it doesnt.
[16:03] <shesek> outbackwifi, I'm sorry, but have you read my question? I want this to show more than 3 windows, which is the default
[16:03] <hwilde> patrickod, and you're sure that cable is good?
[16:03] <outbackwifi> shesek: theres no setting; its default behavior; you can cycle thro open windows using alt-tab
[16:03] <patrickod> hwilde: I use it with the onboard ethernet card
[16:03] <shesek> it shows 3 windows at a time, I want it to show more
[16:03] <patrickod> and it works
[16:03] <hwilde> cs_student, you have to chown the file as the user the webserver is running as... typicall www-data
[16:03] <patrickod> so yes, I am absolutely positive
[16:03] <outbackwifi> shesek: i can scroll thro about 5 windows i have open right now
[16:04] <shesek> me too, but it shows only 3 of them at a time
[16:04] <melams> outbackwifi: I'm not too sure the system power settings say that my comp is never suppose to go to sleep, I would say at least a few hours
[16:04] <shesek> before this new fancy thingy you could see all of them at the time
[16:04] <hwilde> patrickod, that is very strange.  if it shows up in ifconfig it should be good.  you should report the bug and include that the cable works on the onboard
[16:04] <n8tuser1> Tumie-> that can be resolve, if you wish, you can install another linux with the current one, by using debootstrap, you just have to have a new partition for the new install and can use the old /home if its a separate directory
[16:04] <patrickod> hwilde: will do
[16:04] <droopsta915> what can i use to watch quicktime videos?
[16:04] <outbackwifi> shesek: if you mean compiz, you can disable that in System-Preferences-appearance
[16:04] <LjL> Ors: i'm not really sure what aptitude is on about, but it doesn't really seem to me like you have any actually broken packages
[16:04] <patrickod> hwilde: is there anything else I can do?
[16:05] <cs_student> Thanks, that worked :)
[16:05] <mandark> hey both my firefox and swiftweasel are crashing...plzz help
[16:05] <hwilde> patrickod, ask in #ubuntu-bugs   sounds like yo ugot one

[16:06] <outbackwifi> patrickod: can you pastebin your lspci
[16:06] <hwilde> !donate | melams

[16:08] <patrickod> outbackwifi: will do
[16:08] <jelg> I am using a ubuntu install hosted on the Windows XP NTFS disk
[16:08] <melams> outbackwifi: actually in my systems monitor it shows all processes sleeping except gnome-system-monitor
[16:09] <outbackwifi> melams: thats default behavior
[16:09] <melams> but everything works except I cant get to my pidgin mail
[16:09] <outbackwifi> melams:what is the symptom
[16:09] <Kaff3ine> i've never used irc before, can someone reccommend a good channel?

[16:09] <zezu> ok i can't even remove the nvidia package
[16:09] <Kaff3ine> naw, that channel sucks.
[16:09] <zezu> can't update it
[16:09] <Kaff3ine> XD jk.
[16:09] <zezu> it can't find libGL so it fails
[16:10] <melams> after hours of inactivity, my pidgin mail is no longer in the sys tray and I cant access it anywhere

[16:10] <Coloquialist> hello.. anyone available to assist me with some wifi setup ?
[16:10] <melams> i think the only way to get it back up is to stop the process and restart it
[16:10] <melams> but that is annoying to do every time my comp is inactive for a few hours
[16:10] <askand> Is there any open nondestructive soundformats?
[16:11] <zezu> can i force apt-get to remove something even if it fails ?
[16:11] <zezu> i tried -fm doesn't help
[16:11] <Zambezi> Anyone know how I can mount /home and / on an encrypted LVM (connected as external drive) after grub got overwritten? It seems it's encrypted, but it's not mounted.
[16:11] <outbackwifi> patrickod: is the GiGe on eth0 or eth1?
[16:11] <patrickod> outbackwifi: eth0
[16:12] <patrickod> eth1 is the onboard and its working fine
[16:12] <outbackwifi> askand: surely you mean lossless?
[16:12] <askand>  outbackwifi: surely that is what I  mean :)
[16:12] <hwilde> !ogg | askand
[16:12] <outbackwifi> patrickod: what does sudo ethtool eth0 say ?
[16:12] <shesek> can I get all the menus to be sub-menus of one button?
[16:12] <shesek> to save up some space
[16:12] <outbackwifi> patrickod: if the link is up the last line should say so
[16:13] <shesek> (Applications, Places, System)
[16:13] <patrickod> outbackwifi: ok
[16:13] <Gweeetszorano> Does anyone know how to auto configure Xorg.conf... ?
[16:13] <patrickod> outbackwifi: no link detected
[16:13] <hwilde> Gweeetszorano, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[16:13] <outbackwifi> patrickod: and is it ?
[16:14] <Gweeetszorano> hwilde: Thanks bro
[16:14] <patrickod> is it what?
[16:14] <mandark> hey both my firefox and swiftweasel are crashing...plzz help
[16:14] <outbackwifi> patrickod: is the card connected to a switch/hub etc?
[16:14] <patrickod> outbackwifi: yes
[16:14] <patrickod> the cabling is perfectly operational
[16:14] <patrickod> its just this card
[16:14] <zezu> dpkg-divert: looks for /usr/lib32

[16:15] <fsufitch> hi. i got a problem with my cdrom drive. it fails to read any "big" files from CDs and DVDs with a "Read/Write Error", and it won't even eject the disc when i push eject. I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 32-bit on a Dell XPS M1330 (64-bit).  I also have a slot-loading drive, if that makes any difference.
[16:15] <zezu> i can barely see the text scroll by
[16:15] <patrickod> outbackwifi: ok
[16:15] <hwilde> !fixres | zezu
[16:16] <zezu> hwilde, the problem is the driver

[16:18] <Coloquialist> Having trouble with NDISwrapper and a wirelesscard. Using NDISwrapper and a how-to I am able to get a driver installed. The card shows up as a "wired" connection though. any thoughts?
[16:19] <outbackwifi> Coloquialist: what card is it?
[16:19] <hwilde> Coloquialist, give up, buy a supported card :/
[16:19] <Coloquialist> it is a realtek 8185.
[16:19] <hwilde> I have never got ndiswrapper to do anything useful
[16:20] <outbackwifi> Coloquialist: can you pastebin your lspci?
[16:20] <xukun> can I disable pulseaudio and use alsa instead it's messing things for me up
[16:20] <hwilde> !alsa | xukun
[16:20] <Cletus> whois Cletus
[16:20] <Coloquialist> outbackwifi: I can try.. this is on another machine. only network card is the wireless.. lemm see if I can grab it via gedit
[16:21] <xukun> hwilde, thanks I will

[16:21] <saftarn> i cant scroll my mouse, im running vmware+ubuntu
[16:21] <saftarn> i cant scroll my mouse, im running vmware+ubuntu. how can  fix that?
[16:22] <outbackwifi> saftarn: your mouse type must not have been configured in vmware
[16:22] <saftarn> outbackwifi, no prob not, how do i do that?
[16:22] <fsufitch> hi. i'm reposting as this is kind of urgent. i got a problem with my cdrom drive. it fails to read any "big" files from CDs and DVDs with a "Read/Write Error", and it won't even eject the disc when i push eject. I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 32-bit on a Dell XPS M1330 (64-bit).  I also have a slot-loading drive, if that makes any difference.
[16:22] <outbackwifi> saftarn: dunno, i can only help with ubuntu not vmware
[16:23] <outbackwifi> fsufitch: look into your dmesg and see if theres any error messages
[16:23] <Dextorion> Anyone else had problems with sound not working in firefox flashplayer?
[16:24] <Coloquialist> outbackwifi:  00:08.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8185 IEEE 802.11a/b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 20)
[16:24] <scunizi> saftarn, you might need to install vmware tools.. look on the ui for that option
[16:24] <kbrosnan> Dextorion: fairly common
[16:24] <kbrosnan> Dextorion: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio see known issues
[16:24] <fsufitch> outbackwifi, i see a LOT of errors mentioning " attempt to access beyond end of device" and  a few of "Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block <somenumber>" at the end
[16:24] <outbackwifi> Coloquialist: i dont see why you are trying with ndiswrapper; can you also check dmesg|grep Ethernet
[16:25] <Rutty> this keyboard issue is ridiculous
[16:25] <Dextorion> thanks kbrosnan, i'll take a look :)
[16:25] <saftarn> vmware says it is an ubuntu thing
[16:25] <outbackwifi> fsufitch: that means that either the disk or your drive is broke; there must be a way to manually eject cd if its stuck (use a pin in a hole or something)
[16:25] <outbackwifi> saftarn: whats the mouse-type in vmware?
[16:26] <fsufitch> outbackwifi, ejection works if i right click on the disk icon and click eject. and the problem can't be the disks (i tried a whole bunch and none work) or the drive (it worked just fine last time i checked, and this is still a new computer)
[16:26] <masakra> Welcome
[16:26] <Coloquialist> outbackwifi I went with ndiswrapper in ignorance. Card was not showing up after fresh install.  should I back out the ndiswrapper changes and try something else ?
[16:26] <outbackwifi> fsufitch: what changed before it stopped working
[16:26] <fsufitch> outbackwifi, since regular button ejection doesn't work, could this mean the disk is in use or something? or the driver or backports are broken for 32 bit OS on 64 bit system?
[16:27] <Coloquialist> outbackwifi: I used ndiswrapper for broadcom drivers on my laptop here, and just followed the same procedure.
[16:27] <fsufitch> outbackwifi, last major change i made was wiping my HD and installing ubuntu 32 bit and vista home premium 32 bit instead of my old ubuntu 64 bit
[16:28] <outbackwifi> Coloquialist: ndiswrapper is only recommended for unsupported cards. you should first check whether your card is supported in the hcl
[16:28] <outbackwifi> !hcl | Coloquialist
[16:28] <outbackwifi> fsufitch: like you said it could be a driver issue since its a slot-loader
[16:28] <Coloquialist> outbackwifi: thanks! I'll check these out.
[16:29] <Woet> My x-server keeps randomly restarting.. usually when I click the tray icon of Kopete. How to resolve this? Running 8.04, http://pastebin.com/f7926b341 is my Xorg log. I'm using the latest restricted drivers.
[16:29] <jAk> Hello everybody
[16:29] <fsufitch> outbackwifi, it's always *been* a slot-loader ;)
[16:29] <fsufitch> the problem is that it worked before, and it doesn't now
[16:30] <outbackwifi> fsufitch: those errors that you get certainly point to a disk/drive issue
[16:30] <fsufitch> outbackwifi, okay. i'll see if i can get a usb drive or something. I'll look deeper tinto this. thanks anyway :)
[16:31] <outbackwifi> Woet: what do you mean when you say restarting
[16:31] <zamarax> anyone else having a hard time installed hydroxygen icons from gnomelook in ubuntu?
[16:31] <outbackwifi> fsufitch: yw and all the best
[16:31] <jAk> I've just upgraded to 8-10 from 8.04, the whole process took almost 3hours... it finished. When i login to either kernals, it just freezes. Anybody experiance this?
[16:31] <Woet> outbackwifi: the same as if you do ctrl + alt + backspace
[16:31] <outbackwifi> !intrepid| jAk
[16:32] <outbackwifi> Woet: are there any errors in your X log files? /var/log/Xorg.0.log

[16:33] <Woet> outbackwifi: the pastebin is there.. http://pastebin.com/f7926b341
[16:33] <outbackwifi> netsurf3: yes add the owner of that app to the group
[16:34] <outbackwifi> Woet: does this behavior happen with any other application too?
[16:34] <netsurf3> outbackwifi, hmmm i am having issues with virtualbox poping/crackling/stuttering audio in virtual box via pulseaudio want just this application to have pulse-rt access to see if it helps
[16:34] <n8tuser1> jAk-> thats why i do not recommend people to do an upgrade, but rather do a fresh install
[16:35] <Woet> outbackwifi: Yes, it's completely random
[16:35] <outbackwifi> netsurf3: i used to have a prob with pullseaudio; i removed that and installed esd and audio stuttering stopped
[16:35] <outbackwifi> !esd | n8tuser1
[16:35] <netsurf3> outbackwifi, see i am too used to pulse now :(
[16:35] <jAk> its a bit silly if they offered the upgrade
[16:35] <netsurf3> !est netsurf3

[16:37] <outbackwifi> mandark: install the right architecture
[16:37] <ric1> does any one know how i can update from 5.10 , but i only have 186mb of ram
[16:38] <mandark> outbackwifi; how will i know wat's my architecture nd which is suitable 4 it??
[16:38] <outbackwifi> mandark: well you own the computer :) anyways if you have a standard intel computer, the architecture is 386,
[16:39] <mandark> outbackwifi; mine is intel
[16:39] <Woet> outbackwifi: it's completely random, sometimes 2 times in 20 minutes, sometimes nothing in 2 weeks
[16:39] <mandark> outbackwifi; actually the error i got is 'wrong architecture i386'
[16:40] <outbackwifi> Woet: sorry i cant seem to figure it out
[16:40] <outbackwifi> mandark: what is the version you're trying to install?
[16:40] <mandark> flash10 fire firefox
[16:40] <Moc> Freaking weird, I have video issues with ubuntu/compiz/nvidia, but after a while, all the issues stop..
[16:40] <mandark> flash10 for firefox
[16:41] <saftarn> wow linux is actually very easy to use and all the admin tasks are right there not hidden away n some corner like in windows
[16:41] <thiebaude> yup,saftarn
[16:41] <jAk> is this the right channel to try and resolve issues with 8-10?
[16:42] <outbackwifi> mandark: are you trying to download and install from a page that looks like this --> http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&P2_Platform=Linux
[16:42] <kbrosnan> jAk: #ubuntu+1 for a few more days
[16:42] <Caleb|> Hey folks.  Got a problem here.  Just installed ubuntu and I'm loving it.  I finally got the install for my graohics card to work, and boom.  I boot up, and then my mouse stops working.  It's a PS/2 mouse.  I know most people use USB, but my 4 USB ports are filled by my keyboard, my mic, my webcam, and my iPod.  Any help would be great, thanks!
[16:43] <jAk> cheers kbrosnan
[16:44] <mandark> outbackwifi; ya from the same website
[16:44] <outbackwifi> Caleb|: I think your mouse is not configured properly in the xorg.conf file
[16:44] <jAk> 4 days before the offical release is due, i should have waited... well, hopefully it will be resolved ;)
[16:44] <ric1> Caleb| use a usb hub or install a pci card with usb ports
[16:44] <outbackwifi> mandark: that should be exactly the same url for a ubuntu deb download
[16:45] <hwilde> jAk, ubuntu+1
[16:45] <kbrosnan> mandark: are you using an x64 distro
[16:45] <UrbanMystic> hi, i am facing some problem with skype
[16:45] <UrbanMystic> actually with my mic
[16:45] <ric1> does any one know how i can update from 5.10 , but with only have 186mb of ram?
[16:45] <danopia_> Hi
[16:45] <jAk> hwilde : on the channel... just waiting for reply..
[16:45] <outbackwifi> UrbanMystic: use alsamixer to select the correct mic
[16:46] <n8tuser1> ric1-> why not do a fresh install?
[16:46] <danopia_> I called beep a bunch of times, now can I cancel all the beep requests?
[16:46] <mandark> outbackwifi; my ubuntu is 64 bit
[16:46] <kbrosnan> mandark: x64 is not supported by adobe
[16:46] <UrbanMystic> outbackwifi, when i speak into the mic, i can hear myself from the speakers. but when i use skype, the other person cant hear me
[16:46] <outbackwifi> mandark: kbrosnan asked you that
[16:46] <Caleb|> outbackwifi: I really don't exactly have that option right now... Is there any way I can properly configure my mouse?  I think it might be a problem with Compiz, actually, because everything was working fine before I installed these nVidia drivers.
[16:46] <outbackwifi> UrbanMystic: does the skype echo test go well?
[16:46] <UrbanMystic> outbackwifi, i ran vumeter and spoke into the mic but the levels didnt rise
[16:47] <UrbanMystic> outbackwifi, the skype echo test doesnt go well
[16:47] <mandark> kbrosnan, outbackwifi; so now wat do i do...flash 9 always crasahes my browser
[16:47] <outbackwifi> mandark: sorry cant help you with that
[16:48] <Exortius> o/ gents
[16:48] <kbrosnan> mandark: nspluginwrapper may alow flash 10 to work
[16:48] <indra_> indra_
[16:48] <asta>  fantasia
[16:48] <outbackwifi> UrbanMystic: can you fire up alsamixer in a terminal and move the mic slider to the top
[16:48] <fsufitch> outbackwifi, i'm back, and i sorta nailed my cdrom problem
[16:48] <jAk> switching to ubuntu+1, thanks for your help people
[16:48] <UrbanMystic> outbackwifi, it is to the max
[16:48] <outbackwifi> fsufitch: great; what did you do
[16:48] <Woet> My x-server keeps randomly restarting.. usually when I click the tray icon of Kopete. How to resolve this? Running 8.04, http://pastebin.com/f7926b341 is my Xorg log. I'm using the latest restricted drivers.
[16:48] <ric1> n8tuser1 what do you mean?
[16:49] <Exortius> installing ubuntu on a laptop with no on-board wifi card, install is stuck at 87% "getting the time from a network time server"
[16:49] <n8tuser1> ric1->  do a fresh install instead of upgrade
[16:49] <Exortius> why is this not timing out? it's been 20 minutes
[16:49] <UrbanMystic> outbackwifi, if it helps, skype was working perfectly fine until a few months ago
[16:49] <fsufitch> it's not my cdrom, it's readonly files. whenever i try to copy a readonly file off the cd, it makes a readonly file locally, then refuses to write to it because it's readonly. i havent figured out a solution yet, since I can't use chmod a+w on the cd since it's a readonly filesystem
[16:49] <outbackwifi> UrbanMystic: i have seen that at times in my laptop i cant use skype properly because the current capture device is my built-in mic and im trying to use a headset. changing this in alsamixer helps me
[16:49] <UrbanMystic> outbackwifi, actually i dont use my linux box so often these days since i got a laptop. but my mom uses skype and now it isnt working
[16:49] <Caleb|> Outbackwifi: How do I disable CompIz?
[16:50] <NauarchLysander> Is there a possibility to exclude certain directories from a search with the 'find' command?
[16:50] <mandark> kbrosnan, outbackwifi; kk...i installed it thanxxx.....
[16:50] <Thylacine> ric1: you should download and install xubuntu for less than 256 ram
[16:50] <fsufitch> outbackwifi, and somehow it's only doing this for bigger files
[16:50] <outbackwifi> Caleb|: System-Preferences-Appearance
[16:50] <ric1> like install 8.10 from scratch? i dont think i have enough ram and my internet connection is to slow to download xubuntu
[16:50] <outbackwifi> fsufitch: if it copied the files to the hard disk, you can change persmissions
[16:51] <mandark> kbrosnan, outbackwifi; my browser used 2 crash always...so someone told me that it was flash9...so i uninstalled it and installed nspluginwrapper....will it crash again
[16:52] <Exortius> hey guys, can anyone help me with a problem i'm having while installing ubuntu?
[16:52] <outbackwifi> !ask | Exortius
[16:52] <UrbanMystic> outbackwifi, so do you have anything in mind that I can try?
[16:52] <Thylacine> ric1: you can try a smaller distro, like puppy...
[16:52] <Woet> My x-server keeps randomly restarting.. usually when I click the tray icon of Kopete. How to resolve this? Running 8.04, http://pastebin.com/f7926b341 is my Xorg log. I'm using the latest restricted drivers.
[16:52] <outbackwifi> UrbanMystic: try changing the mic in preferences in the volume control applet
[16:53] <UrbanMystic> tried that too outbackwifi
[16:53] <fsufitch> outbackwifi, the odd thing, though, is if i wait for my cd to wind down due to unuse, and try to copy one of the files then, it doesn't even start up before giving me the R/W error
[16:53] <UrbanMystic> doest work
[16:53] <kbrosnan> mandark: it may still crash, flash is not ment for the x64 platform. the only other option is to set up firefox 32 bit to work, non-trivial google chroot firefox
[16:53] <Exortius> ok, my ubuntu install is stuck at 87% "getting the time from a network time server", my laptop has no on-board network card, shouldn't this have timed out and continued with the install?
[16:53] <NauarchLysander> Is there a possibility to exclude certain directories from a search with the 'find' command?
[16:53] <fsufitch> outbackwifi, i'm going to restart, brb
[16:54] <Thylacine> Exortius: how much time did it pass?
[16:54] <cobra_> untu-it
[16:54] <Exortius> Thylacine: it's been over 20 minutes
[16:54] <mandark> kbrosnan; so i have 2 use chroot
[16:55] <Thylacine> Exortius, that's a lot of time, i don't really know why
[16:55] <kbrosnan> mandark: or not have flash
[16:55] <tribalih> can i ask here for some problems with my amsn?
[16:55] <ric1> Thylacine i think i tied that before but i didnt work
[16:55] <melams> sorry I asked this question a while ago, but had to reboot before it was answered
[16:55] <melams> can anyone help me with troubleshooting my pidgin mail
[16:55] <mandark> kbrosnan; is der any better browser which supports flash....
[16:55] <wowfunhappy> Hello. I am running Xubuntu Hardy. Everything used to work just fine, but recently, xubuntu has become unable to detect my SD card when I insert it into the reader. Any idea what the problem might be?
[16:55] <melams> it for some reason goes invisible after a few hours of inactivity
[16:56] <melams> the process is running but i cant find the app

[16:56] <outbackwifi> melams: doing a alt-tab might bring it up
[16:56] <Thylacine> ric1: i think you could order a cd with ubuntu or if you have a friend with a better internet connection, ask him
[16:56] <unop> NauarchLysander, sure with -prune
[16:56] <melams> no that didnt work before
[16:56] <melams> i close the window
[16:57] <melams> it was running on my panel
[16:57] <melams> or in the ubuntu equivalent of windows sys tray
[16:57] <kbrosnan> mandark: no clue i don't use x64. however other options are Opera and konqueror
[16:57] <unop> NauarchLysander,  find /someplace -name "*pattern*to*exclude*" -prune -o -print
[16:57] <Thylacine> Woet, you should be ok with 8.10, it has a new xorg
[16:58] <Gigacore> hi guys, Is it true that ubuntu/linux can damage Hard disks ?
[16:58] <spasticteapot> No.
[16:58] <zupb2> hi, guys, i try to run this
[16:58] <zupb2> command ooffice  -calc "macro:///home/user/script/SuperScript"
[16:58] <zupb2> but i get such mistake
[16:58] <zupb2> ooffice  -calc "macro:///home/user/script/SuperScript"
[16:58] <Woet> Thylacine: I'd prefer using a released version
[16:58] <FloodBot3> zupb2: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:58] <tribalih> who has amsn?
[16:58] <spasticteapot> Unles you're using a SSD and have the pagefile set up wrong.
[16:58] <zupb2> sorry, i get this javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment!
[16:59] <Thylacine> Woet, just 4 days left but the RC is very stable, why fix a problem in an old release?
[16:59] <Thylacine> 8.10 RC is really good, i'm using it and is better than 8.04
[16:59] <Thylacine> much better
[16:59] <NauarchLysander> unop: Sorry, I don't get it. I'm trying to run a search for all directries containing 'scr' but I want to exclude everything beginning with ./proc. How would the command look like?
[17:00] <Gigacore> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=219152
[17:00] <Gigacore> is that true ?
[17:00] <wowfunhappy> Hello. I am running Xubuntu Hardy. Everything used to work just fine, but recently, xubuntu has become unable to detect my SD card when I insert it into the reader. Any idea what the problem might be?

[17:00] <melams> ok i guess i dont really care too much about the pidgin right now... I was more curious about whether I can install LAMP without reinstalling ubuntu?
[17:01] <unop> melams, sure
[17:01] <SlimeyPete> !lamp
[17:01] <Altairs> Hey, this question may be random, but when I enter commands in terminal, I often have to type "sudo" in front of the command. what does it do?
[17:01] <segosu> runs it as root
[17:01] <unop> !sudo | Altairs
[17:01] <tribalih> how i can connect amsn??
[17:01] <outbackwifi> Altairs: it gives you administrative powers
[17:02] <Altairs> ohh okay
[17:02] <Altairs> thanks
[17:02] <melams> so i have to install apache, mysql and php seperatly
[17:02] <NauarchLysander> unop: It works, thank you very much.
[17:03] <Altairs> also, i've heard about this thing from my buddies called "compiz", what is it?
[17:03] <amrik> Hi so my sister would like for me to be able to connect remotely to her computer and fix her problems. she is running xp and i am running ubuntu. what is the best program to do this? is tightvnc ok?
[17:03] <musictoto> melams, if you want an easy LAMP setup on a graphical ubuntu installation, go to http://www.apachefriends.org
[17:03] <ay^> amrik: sure, that'll work
[17:03] <melams> thank you
[17:03] <unop> NauarchLysander, here's something for you - http://wooledge.org/mywiki/UsingFind
[17:03] <Thylacine> i've made a script and modified sudoers with sudovisudo command and it is still asking me for a password when i try to run the script, why?
[17:03] <Altairs> oh well maybe..
[17:03] <Altairs> !compiz
[17:03] <NauarchLysander> unop: Thanks.
[17:04] <marko_> a
[17:04] <amrik> ay^: are there other programs that could work?
[17:04] <ay^> amrik: not that I know of
[17:04] <unop> Thylacine, when you make changes to a file - tell us about those changes
[17:04] <finn> http://pastebin.com/d39fc19e0 any ideas?
[17:04] <unop> Thylacine, so, what did you put in sudoers exactly?
[17:05] <tribalih> how can i deinstall a program?
[17:05] <finn> sudo apt-get remove <programm>
[17:05] <ay^> tribalih: did you install it with apt, or th elikes?
[17:05] <Thylacine> unop: below root ALL=... i put user ALL=NOPASSWD: /PATH/scriptname
[17:05] <rummy> I have problem with sound. when I have open rhythmbox don't have sound in skype or in firefox, in other programs or if I have sound in firefox then don't have in others :-)
[17:06] <Altairs> !anything
[17:06] <tribalih> ay: ehm... how can i now that... i am not really good in this things
[17:06] <Altairs> awww
[17:06] <melams> musictoto: it says compatible on a x86 processor, sorry my computer knowledge is shady, how can i make sure that my processor is x86
[17:07] <kbrosnan> rummy: problem with adobe flash and pulse audio, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio see known issues
[17:07] <unop> Thylacine, that shouldn't work because scripts are actually run by interpreters i.e. /bin/bash or /usr/bin/perl etc
[17:08] <dulak> melams: what kind of computer you have?
[17:08] <melams> so generally x86 processor is any 16 or 32 bit but not 64
[17:08] <melams> i have a 32 bit processor
[17:08] <melams> intel centino
[17:08] <tribalih> ay^: sorry now = know...
[17:08] <dulak> melams: then you have an x86 processor
[17:08] <melams> thanks
[17:08] <dulak> melams: x86 means it's intel compatible
[17:08] <musictoto> melams: that will work
[17:08] <Thylacine> unop: i type in the terminal sudo /path/scriptname, it asks me for a password and after that it works
[17:08] <melams> thanks guys
[17:09] <Thylacine> it should not want a password
[17:09] <Thylacine> it is in sudoers
[17:09] <fsufitch> outbackwifi, now it works. apparently it was a weird problem because i changed my password (which i did just earlier today). this was somehow fixed by me restarting my computer. im happy it works now though :). thanks for oyur help
[17:10] <melams> another newb question, but is a linux shell the same as the terminal
[17:11] <Thylacine> melams: nope
[17:11] <Thylacine> melams: yes, sorry
[17:11] <Thylacine> :)
[17:11] <sleven> i write perl in my terminal and it just stands there and blink, does Perl come with the ubuntu-distro?
[17:11] <musictoto> melams: it's not exactly the same but pretty much
[17:11] <sleven> i write python i starts the interpreter. doesnt perl have one?
[17:11] <melams> i can get to different shells by doing function f1 - f7 right?
[17:12] <dulak> sleven: perl requires input, it's not interactive like python
[17:12] <sleven> dulak: i see
[17:12] <unop> sleven, perl does not have an interactive shell (like python) - that's why it is expecting some input
[17:12] <dulak> sleven: so something like perl script.pl
[17:12] <sleven> i see
[17:12] <unop> sleven, or  perl  #next line   print "hello world"  #when finished  CTRL+D
[17:13] <sleven> what si the equivalence of C:/ on ubuntu?
[17:13] <dgn1> I installed Ubuntu server but I was not connected to the internet then. So I choosed to set up the internet connection later. Now its done installing and I'm connected to the internet. How do I setup my connection now? (wifi would be great too)
[17:13] <zigovr> how can I prevent adept (or apt-get or any other tool) to remove a package that is marked as "broken" when I want to upgrade my system ? The package in question actually works just fine and I need it, it was just installed forcibly and come from a a future (intrepid) distribution
[17:13] <dulak> sleven: there really isn't one, but the closest thing to it is /
[17:13] <unop> sleven, there is no equivalent, linux doesn't use the concept of drive letters
[17:14] <amrik> sleven: there is no real equivalence per se, since the mount points in nix systems are virtual. however if you only have one hard drive most likely it corresponds to / (unless of course you are referring to a windows partition from an ubuntu dual boot)
[17:14] <sleven> im running on vmware
[17:14] <amrik> zigovr: does aptitude hold [packagename] work?
[17:14] <sleven> does thta make it a lot slower?
[17:14] <dgn1> of course
[17:15] <amrik> sleven: running on vmware will be significantly slower, and will not be able to make full use of all available hardware such as hardware accelerated rendering for compiz desktop effects
[17:15] <jjdiamond> sweet.  i got vnc to work
[17:15] <dulak> sleven: the amount of slowness depends on your cpu
[17:15] <zigovr> amrik: I didn't try that, I will
[17:17] <Joseph303> Hello, I'm hoping for help with installation.  I am an experienced Ubuntu user, but I am stumped.
[17:17] <Hoover_4000> #ubuntu++1
[17:17] <Joseph303> I decided to keep my Athlon 64x2 processor and upgrade my motherboard.
[17:17] <SaberZ> which is better? Virtualbox or VMWare.
[17:18] <copperkid> is there any way around firefox's problem of reversing left/right navigation when using touchpad scrolling?
[17:18] <Joseph303> I installed an XFX nForce 750a motherboard.
[17:18] <robert__> in xfce is there a way to remove those 3 desktop icons or are they just stuck there? I couldn't find a way
[17:18] <finn> http://pastebin.com/d39fc19e0 any ideas?
[17:18] <finn> is it a memory error?
[17:18] <capricorrrrrn> hi room
[17:18] <capricorrrrrn> i m having problem with youtube
[17:19] <capricorrrrrn> i cannot see the videos on it
[17:19] <Joseph303> When using the liveCD, I can start the kernel, but then everything just stops.  Apparently the computer "forgets" how to recognize the CD burner.
[17:19] <capricorrrrrn> also when i tried to install flashplayer
[17:19] <capricorrrrrn> it give me error
[17:19] <Joseph303> I don't know whether I need a separate driver for the CD burner, or maybe I have set something wrong in the bios.  I have messed with the bios for hours.
[17:19] <finn> I have no idea what those APIC errors are
[17:19] <copperkid> capricorrrrrn: what error?
[17:19] <capricorrrrrn> ERROR: Your architecture, \'x86_64\', is not supported by the
[17:19] <capricorrrrrn>        Adobe Flash Player installer.
[17:20] <capricorrrrrn> i think its archetecture problem
[17:20] <amrik> capricorrrrrn: did you try apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree?
[17:20] <theJKH> OKAY guys i have a question can you guys helpme i got VMWARE workstation installed but it has no sound it say Failed to open sound device /dev/dsp1: invalid arguement Failed to connect virtual device sound... CAN anyone help me at all
[17:20] <capricorrrrrn> yes
[17:20] <theJKH> Or know why its doing this
[17:20] <dgn1> I installed Ubuntu server but I was not connected to the internet then. So I choosed to set up the internet connection later. Now its done installing and I'm connected to the internet. How do I setup my connection now? (wifi would be great too)
[17:20] <capricorrrrrn> flashplugin-nonfree is already the newest version.
[17:20] <capricorrrrrn> amrik : yes
[17:20] <amrik> theJKH: vmware tries to grab hold of the sound card all for itself; to get it to work usually involves temporarily killing pulseaudio (pulseaudio -k) and when done with vmware restarting pulseaudio (pulseaudio -D)
[17:21] <capricorrrrrn> amrik : its already install
[17:21] <amrik> capricorrrrrn: and so the problem is that you get a grey box?
[17:21] <Spanklord> yow can anybody help me out . i cant get my wired connection to work on 8.10
[17:21] <rebel_kid> is there a way (without virtualizing windows) to force netflix watch instantly to work on ubuntu?
[17:21] <capricorrrrrn> yes
[17:21] <theJKH> I did that but still says same message
[17:21] <capricorrrrrn> first i was having problem that it say to install flash player
[17:22] <finn> is there a way to run a memory test from a running system?
[17:22] <capricorrrrrn> now i get white screen when i play some video on youtube
[17:22] <ghost3> i have a supramax 56i pci modem not working in ubuntu. i did a google and came up with nothing useful, i tried linxant site still nothing. anyone want a challange? please.
[17:22] <theJKH> Wait
[17:22] <Spanklord> anybody got an idea why my network stoped working when i upgraded to 8.10 ?
[17:22] <theJKH> whats the command to kill audo?
[17:22] <theJKH> the pulse audio command
[17:22] <amrik> capricorrrrrn: ok so you are trying to install flash on a 64 bit platform. unfortunately adobe does not support 64 bit (the bug that was filed is about 4 years old now)
[17:22] <theJKH> amirk
[17:23] <amrik> theJKH: pulseaudio -k
[17:23] <amrik> capricorrrrrn: however there are ways around this
[17:23] <savid> Help!  I'm trying to log into a server via ssh and it's hanging after successfully logging in.  Here's the output from ssh -v:   http://pastebin.com/m5ea31bb7.   Any ideas on what might be happening?
[17:23] <mr_polite> good morning ubuntuites!
[17:23] <theJKH> i did that btu i stil have sound amirk
[17:23] <capricorrrrrn> amrik: tell
[17:23] <capricorrrrrn> me
[17:23] <theJKH> isnt getting rid of sound in ubuntu
[17:23] <snowman> hi. after updating my sound driver, i cannot login gnome anymore.it crashes (10 seconds error) and sys it cannot find libasound.so.2 anymore. i got an amd64 arch
[17:23] <MatBoy> what do you guys recall as the most easy and stable ftp server under ubuntu ?
[17:23] <segosu> ftpd
[17:23] <snowman> is there any solution without removing and reinstalling libasound.so.2 ?
[17:23] <ghost3> good morning to you too mrpolite
[17:24] <amrik> capricorrrrrn: ok so what i do for youtube is i have a greasemonkey script installed that replaces the flash player on youtube with either mplayer or totem. it works all the time instead of only sometimes and the fullscreen is much faster
[17:24] <amrik> capricorrrrrn: however i cannot seek in the middle of videos, but its a minor drawback. plus greasemonkey can be switched on an off very easily
[17:24] <MatBoy> segosu: also for hosting ?
[17:24] <theJKH> Amirk it says failed to kill daemon
[17:24] <rebel_kid> my guess is no, oh well another one for the round file
[17:25] <ghost3> i have a supramax 56i pci modem not working in ubuntu. i did a google and came up with nothing useful, i tried linxant site still nothing. anyone want a challange?
[17:25] <amrik> theJKH: ps aux | grep pulseaudio to see if its still running. it probably isnt
[17:25] <tribalih> do somebody speak german?
[17:25] <segosu> MatBoy: probably not. maybe pureftpd is better, no idea. never had to host an ftpd to the internets. i use ftpd locally.
[17:25] <Joseph303> tribalih:  maybe you should try #ubuntu-de
[17:25] <amrik> capricorrrrrn: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/25481
[17:26] <tribalih> ah... okai.. thanks... joseph
[17:26] <devil78> hi al
[17:26] <sleven> what doe sit really mean that the mount-points are virtual?
[17:26] <devil78> hi all
[17:26] <jjdiamond> what version of adobe flash player do i install .dem or APT?
[17:26] <theJKH> Amirk it says 8707 0.0 0.0 3004 748 pts/2 R+ 14.25 0.00 grep pulseaudio
[17:26] <jjdiamond> oops .deb
[17:26] <amrik> capricorrrrrn: also http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/22281 (this is the one i use, requires mplayer)
[17:26] <sleven> how would you explain an image of the OS to your mother?
[17:26] <b33r> capricorrrrrn, flash works just fine on 64 bit firefox
[17:26] <MatBoy> segosu: yes, proftpd is also kinda nice
[17:26] <capricorrrrrn> amrik: i have install greasemonkey using firefox addons
[17:26] <amrik> theJKH: right so pulseaudio is dead now, so try running in a terminal "padsp vmware"
[17:27] <ghost3> jjdiamonns use deb
[17:27] <capricorrrrrn> but its not working
[17:27] <capricorrrrrn> b33r: how ?
[17:27] <jjdiamond> thanx dhost3
[17:27] <amrik> capricorrrrrn: that is correct. install greasemonkey first, then install one of the scripts, which links i have provided
[17:27] <jjdiamond> ghost3
[17:27] <ghost3> so k
[17:27] <theJKH> OKay trying that now
[17:27] <b33r> capricorrrrrn, install the macromedia flash
[17:27] <melams> when i type su in the terminal and type my admin password when prompted it says "authentification failure"
[17:27] <melams> any suggestions as to why?
[17:27] <b33r> capricorrrrrn, but first uninstall the other stuff that you have tried like gnash
[17:27] <capricorrrrrn> b33r: apt-get install ??
