[05:12] <AmirBlum> ?
[05:12] <xtknight> tony_ubuntu_newb, the exe is generally just a SFX (self extracting) zip which you can grab with linux.  or you can use wine to extract it sometimes if it's a different exe

[05:15] <tman_ubuntu> What's up people!!
[05:15] <jhall> hi, i'm using 6.06 on a Dell Inspiron 9400. Sometimes when I leave my computer for long periods of time I come back to a black screen. The only thing I can do is hit the power button. When that happens I hear the system shut down. Any ideas what might be causing this?
[05:16] <xtknight> tony_ubuntu_newb, if you have a floppy. you can try doing "wine BRasdf.exe" to get it
[05:16] <zemo> hey
[05:16] <zemo> what is that command to print out all your hardware info
[05:16] <Carsten[DE] > I have freshly installed: Xubuntu 6.06LTS / alternate... in order to get my audiocard running I need module 'snd-es18xx' that is mentioned alot in the forums... this module cannot be found (modprobe/lsmod negative)
[05:16] <xtknight> G^Deka, alright well i think it got recovered.  just remember never use grub-install (hd,x,x)  only (hdx) for MBR
[05:16] <tman_ubuntu> upgrade question here.
[05:16] <spasticteapot> jhall: Might be an ACPI bug.
[05:16] <xtknight> zemo, sudo lshw  or lspci
[05:16] <zemo> ktx
[05:16] <spasticteapot> IThat happened to me on my old 9100.
[05:16] <jhall> spasticteapot: i'll google that

[05:17] <tman_ubuntu> need to move my user profile.
[05:17] <jhall> spasticteapot: what's the solution?
[05:17] <xtknight> tman_ubuntu, feisty installer can import user profiles in some cases
[05:17] <tony_ubuntu_newb> Xteven, I'm really new. I just installed Ubuntu. Iam installing Wine now.
[05:17] <G^Deka> xtknight: well grub was installed by the ubuntu installer when all this happened
[05:17] <spasticteapot> jhall: With older versions of Ubuntu in particular, when the laptop tries to wake up from sleep or turn off the LCD, it won't work.
[05:17] <xtknight> tman_ubuntu, i would ask in the feisty support channel #ubuntu+1  also
[05:17] <tman_ubuntu> well i want to go cleaner than that.
[05:17] <spasticteapot> jhall: Upgrade to fesity and hope it works?
[05:17] <wilk> Sorry to bother you with a stupid question but isn't dpkg-reconfigure console-setup supposed to allow me to set the keyboard layout for the console ?
[05:17] <spasticteapot> Buy a thinkpad?
[05:17] <xtknight> G^Deka, it must have installed incorrectly.  odd though
[05:18] <Carsten[DE] > Anyone can help me on installing a module?
[05:18] <G^Deka> xtknight: it is odd
[05:18] <jhall> spasticteapot: hehe ok, i'll try the former ;)
[05:18] <compengi> how to format a flash disk?

[05:18] <tony_ubuntu_newb> xtknight,  I'm really new. I just installed Ubuntu. I am installing Wine now.
[05:18] <xtknight> tony_ubuntu_newb, you can then dd=  and copy it to the floppy byte by byte
[05:18] <xtknight> tony_ubuntu_newb, only 1.4M big
[05:18] <tman_ubuntu> thanks.  i'll zoom over to ubuntu+1 forum.

[05:19] <ForrestF> I'm looking for a program that can dump the output of X right to the Hard Drive, taking almost no cpu (kinda like Fraps)
[05:19] <xtknight> ForrestF, desktop screen capture basically
[05:19] <dyrne> compengi: example:  sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1    where sda1 is whatever partition. might be sdb1 etc.
[05:19] <xtknight> not sure
[05:19] <ForrestF> im on a kinda slow cpu (450mhz)
[05:19] <ForrestF> xtknight: yep
[05:19] <tony_ubuntu_newb> xtknight, That would be great but you will have to walk me through how to do it.
[05:19] <xtknight> tony_ubuntu_newb, that's fine.  give me a sec
[05:20] <ForrestF> xtknight: ive tried VNC stuff, but its slow,
[05:20] <tony_ubuntu_newb> Ive got ya' beat ForrestF I have a 333 with 256 of ram :)
[05:20] <petr478> how to mount ntfs usb disks using ntfs-3g module?
[05:21] <G^Deka> xtknight: Thanks for everything, i think its working now
[05:21] <compengi> dyrne, sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb
[05:21] <compengi> Password:
[05:21] <compengi> mkfs.vfat 2.11 (12 Mar 2005)
[05:21] <compengi> mkfs.vfat: Will not try to make filesystem on full-disk device '/dev/sdb' (use -I if wanted)
[05:21] <xtknight> tony_ubuntu_newb, got the disk image file.  go into a terminal and type this.  "wget -c http://xtknight.atothosting.com/dellbiosupdate.img"
[05:21] <Pensacola> petr478 http://www.ntfs-3g.org
[05:21] <xtknight> G^Deka, cool
[05:21] <Carsten[DE] > Anyone can help me accessing missing module snd-es18xx?
[05:21] <xtknight> G^Deka, if you had XP on that partition and you need to boot it, you can fixboot without negative consequences now that grub is out of there.
[05:22] <Pensacola> /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs-3g defaults 0 0
[05:22] <xtknight> G^Deka, i would do chkdsk/etc first though
[05:22] <Pensacola> something like that in fstab
[05:22] <ForrestF> tony_ubuntu_newb: but is it a p3 or p2
[05:22] <xtknight> G^Deka, you can actually check ntfs from linux.  unmount and then try "sudo fsck.ntfs /dev/partition"
[05:23] <G^Deka> xtknight: thanks
[05:23] <xtknight> G^Deka, ah its ntfsfix i tihnk actually.  not sure.
[05:23] <tony_ubuntu_newb> ForrestF, PII
[05:23] <xtknight> tony_ubuntu_newb, done with that command?
[05:23] <tony_ubuntu_newb> xtknight, Got it.
[05:23] <spasticteapot>  tony_ubuntu_newb: That's your CPU?
[05:24] <xtknight> tony_ubuntu_newb, unmount your floppy.  do "sudo umount /dev/fd0"
[05:24] <G^Deka> xtknight: you saved my bacon, the gf wont kill me now, i did ntfsfix looks good, ill do a reboot and see
[05:24] <ForrestF> tony_ubuntu_newb: i bet its a slot 1 right?
[05:24] <compengi> xtknight, do you know how to format a flash disk?
[05:24] <xtknight> G^Deka, :P good
[05:24] <Bsims> Grr anyone know why rdiff-backup is ignoring my exclude list?
[05:24] <xtknight> compengi, yes.  unmount and "sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/flashdevice"
[05:24] <Bsims> I even tried telling it manually
[05:24] <xtknight> compengi, actually add -F32 to parameters for mkfs.vfat
[05:24] <tony_ubuntu_newb> xtknight,  Ok
[05:24] <tony_ubuntu_newb> ForrestF, Yep\
[05:25] <xtknight> tony_ubuntu_newb, now type "file dellbiosupdate.img"  what does it say?
[05:25] <benjb0> hi all
[05:25] <petr478> Pensacola: thanks. i know how to mount it manually but i want to automatically mount any usb drive. i guess i should create alias to kernel module and i do not know where
[05:25] <tony_ubuntu_newb> xtknight, dellbiosupdate.img: DOS floppy 1440k, x86 hard disk boot sector
[05:25] <Pensacola> why not format them as fat32?
[05:25] <dyrne> xtknight: i blieve vfat is fat32 mkfs.msdos -F32 would be same reslult. i could be wrong
[05:25] <AlbertoP> hello

[05:28] <compengi> xtknight, in gparted it's unnamed partition
[05:28] <leleobhz> so, how can i insert new files into the package, since if i insert, dpkg-buildpackage say ive changed the place
[05:28] <tony_ubuntu_newb> xtknight, Let me find another
[05:28] <leleobhz> ?
[05:28] <xtknight> tony_ubuntu_newb, hmm.  ok.  try this.  "sudo mkdosfs /dev/fd0"
[05:28] <xtknight> tony_ubuntu_newb, or you can do that
[05:28] <xtknight> compengi, "unnamed" ?
[05:28] <amorphous_> it's just a key word i'm after to stop me from getting the world of adverts at my fingertips... :/

[05:43] <zero> im a new ubuntu user
[05:43] <Daverocks> sogen: there should be pcm settings in the mixer, hang on, i haven't used the ubuntu mixer in a while, let me check
[05:43] <benjb0> yes zero, what is the help you need>
[05:43] <xtknight> JLXL, just delete Home Folder from the desktop.  it's a shortcut, not you actual Home folder
[05:43] <AmirBlum> in any case, it's not 4318
[05:43] <sogen> Daverocks: okie
[05:44] <zero> i can't connect to internet with my wireless card
[05:44] <Ashbringer> Hello, how would I edit my grub config to auto-boot from the latest kernel over a self-compiled one?
[05:44] <pkundu> I want to delete everything in my HDD and make it a raw disk before ubuntu install
[05:44] <xtknight> zero, type "sudo lshw -class network" in the terminal.  do you know what pastebin is?
[05:44] <ForrestF> i'm using dapper, what should i install to compile most programs (like GCC and stuff)
[05:44] <xtknight> ForrestF, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:44] <[Phaedrus] > pkundu: boot from the live CD and follow... it has the option to do a take-over of the HDD
[05:44] <JLXL> xtknight, cool, thanks for the help, that's what I thought but didn't know for sure.
[05:44] <Daverocks> ForrestF: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:44] <xtknight> JLXL, yup just did it, confirmed
[05:44] <zero> my card just appear when i type that command
[05:44] <vox754> AmirBlum, Try control panel, system, and hardware info, or something. Open the case and take a look. You need to find the chipset, and also, what guides have you been following?
[05:45] <zero> it's a pro/wireless 2200bg network connection
[05:45] <xtknight> zero, that is good.  can you paste the output of the command into a Pastebin (not in this channel)?
[05:45] <xtknight> !pastebin | zero
[05:45] <ubotu> zero: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:45] <zero> i've read that has some problmes
[05:45] <pkundu> [Phaedrus]  it does install but i think its not deleting my previous /boot
[05:45] <zero> what's pastebin?
[05:45] <zero> ok
[05:45] <AmirBlum> I was following a guide on the ubuntu site I beleive
[05:45] <zero> i'll do it now
[05:45] <[Phaedrus] > pkundu: you sure?
[05:45] <AmirBlum> I don't have the link cuz I saved it as a .htm file
[05:46] <pkundu> yes I am sure
[05:46] <xtknight> AmirBlum, what hardware are you trying to search for?
[05:46] <AmirBlum> but it's titled "Broadcom BCM4311 802.11g mini-PCIe (14E4:4324) Wireless Adapter using ndiswrapper Installation (Plus NetworkManager and WPA)"
[05:46] <pkundu> I want some thing to delete all of hdd before install
[05:46] <AmirBlum> what do you mean xtknight?
[05:46] <littlebrat10> i need some quick shell command tip .. i have file in a folder /var/www/myscripts - i want to bring all the files and folders in /myscripts folder to /var/www/ folder - how can I do this in one step?
[05:46] <xtknight> AmirBlum, you are trying to install your bcm4311?
[05:47] <Daverocks> sogen: when you open your mixer window, do you see a "PCM" slider?
[05:47] <AmirBlum> umm...?
[05:47] <tmroland> where can i get more 3d games for ubuntu (open source games) ?
[05:47] <vox754> AmirBlum, you really need to make sure that is your chipset, because you may be following the wrong guide
wont cp command do the job?
[05:47] <AmirBlum> oh...
[05:47] <Daverocks> tmroland: you might like neverball
[05:47] <sogen> Daverocks: yes i see it
[05:47] <Ashbringer> AmirBlum: run lspci | grep -i wireless and post the output here it should only be one line
[05:47] <littlebrat10> i got it .. mv * ..
[05:47] <littlebrat10> thanks benjb0
[05:48] <AmirBlum> cant, I'm on windows
welcome :)
[05:48] <zero> hey
[05:48] <Daverocks> sogen: it might be at like full volume, try lowering it a bit, see if it gets rid of that extra "noise" when the mic is muted
[05:48] <zero> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14210/ there it is the pastebin i think
[05:48] <AmirBlum> ok, I checked
[05:48] <zero> how can i send private msg?
[05:48] <Death_Sargent> I can't acess a sertain part of a folder
[05:49] <AmirBlum> it's a dell wireless 1350 car
[05:49] <AmirBlum> *card
[05:49] <Death_Sargent> everything above its root is usable
[05:49] <xtknight> zero, just prefix  your messages with my name so they highlight
[05:49] <xtknight> zero, PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection  is that what is not working?
[05:49] <Death_Sargent> but the root of the file causes nautilus to crash
[05:49] <zero> yep
[05:49] <AmirBlum> which means it's 4306
[05:49] <sogen> Daverocks: ok i have no noise
[05:49] <xtknight> AmirBlum, i was just trying to find out the problem you were having in case i could help
[05:49] <Daverocks> sogen: better? ;)
[05:49] <sogen> Daverocks: but i still have bad sound quality
[05:50] <benjb0> i would like to participate in open source java projects. Where should i start?
[05:50] <AmirBlum> thanks, I appreciate it
[05:50] <Daverocks> sogen: hmm
[05:50] <Death_Sargent> seriously what should I do
[05:50] <xtknight> benjb0, i dont know but take a look at google summer of code
[05:50] <Daverocks> sogen: have you tried other mics?
[05:50] <Death_Sargent> I need acess to that file
[05:50] <xtknight> zero, whta happens during "sudo ifconfig eth1 up"
[05:50] <benjb0> ok xtknight
[05:50] <AmirBlum> ok, so I guess I might be following the wrong guide
[05:50] <zero> AmirBlum test
[05:50] <sogen> Daverocks: no , but on windows it works well ;]
[05:50] <AmirBlum> test what?
[05:51] <Daverocks> sogen: lol, k, what sound drivers are installed on ubuntu?
[05:51] <xtknight> zero, it'll highlight with your name in red if you type someones name.  but you should type mine if youre tlaking to me ;)
[05:51] <Ashbringer> sogen: what sound card do you have again?

[05:52] <NBX> Hey, what to do if i get error from MySQL login - "Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)"
[05:52] <zero> xtknight i'll send it to a pastebin
[05:53] <xtknight> zero, ok
[05:53] <sogen> Daverocks: where i can chacke drivers ?
[05:53] <Ashbringer> sogen: Ah, thanks. Apparently my having the same problem as you isn't a bug then.
[05:53] <vox754> AmirBlum, according to the open driver http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/?go=devices the 4306 chipset is stable and should work, but maybe you need to use fwcutter to get the firmware
[05:53] <Daverocks> sogen: lsmod | grep snd
[05:53] <xtknight> sogen, sudo lshw -class sound
[05:53] <xtknight> then look for driver=
[05:53] <sidny4> anyone know how to get surround sound working in ubuntu 6.06?
[05:53] <Daverocks> sogen: follow xtknight :P
[05:53] <AmirBlum> ok, what's fwcutter?
[05:53] <arcanusx> NBX: use mysql -p and it will promt for a password
[05:53] <xtknight> :)
[05:53] <xtknight> AmirBlum, it cuts firmware from the windows driver
[05:53] <NBX> arcanusx, but what password should i type?
[05:53] <zero> xtknight, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14212/
[05:53] <xtknight> AmirBlum, it is needed to use the bcm43xx kernel module for linux
[05:53] <AmirBlum> how do I use it?
[05:54] <xtknight> !fwcutter
[05:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fwcutter - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:54] <NBX> arcanusx, i didn`t have to set root password anywhere

[05:55] <xtknight> sogen, not sure.  havent been following.
[05:55] <anandanbu> i have a problem in mounting the windows drives in Ubuntu 7.04. I have installed Ubuntu in a separate primary partition how do i correct it
[05:55] <xtknight> sogen, youd need to ask Daverocks

[05:55] <Firefoxman> xtknight: So, how can I use one?
[05:55] <darx> i'm looking for an audio player that is very lenient of sys resources.. any suggestions
[05:55] <AmirBlum> I'll boot into ubuntu now

[05:56] <xtknight> Firefoxman, you can, sort of.  generally via ndiswrapper i think.  i dont know
[05:56] <AmirBlum> thanks everyone

[05:57] <zero> xtknight, nothing appears
[05:57] <Daverocks> sogen: is it just teamspeak that has the problem?
[05:57] <cypher1> !edgy > jonathan_

[05:58] <xtknight> zero, then what happens?

[05:59] <tmroland> anyone wanan join up  in doing a distro suited for porn  ?
[05:59] <nn-k-laptop> get the newest kernel
[05:59] <iaj> thx
[05:59] <gatorworks> does anyone know a way to triple boot osx, vista, and ubuntu?

[06:00] <talki1> where can i set such thing : open some type of files with exact application?? i don't know why, but "open with" button in preferences doesn't work
[06:00] <zero> xtknight, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14215/
[06:00] <gatorworks> using core 2 duo 2.66

[06:00] <Daverocks> sogen: if teamspeak is hogging the sound device, sound recorder won't work
[06:00] <billy> is there a way to set the unmaximized size of a window?
[06:00] <xtknight> zero, it hasnt foudn an access point.  maybe it's not close enogh to the router
[06:00] <tmroland> Daverocks: i cant say here i'll get in trouble
[06:01] <xtknight> billy, what do you mean?  usually you just resize it
[06:01] <Daverocks> tmroland: haha, ok ;)
[06:01] <sogen> Daverocks: on reconder my voice is good
[06:01] <zero> xtknight, actually im pretty sure that im close enought
[06:01] <Daverocks> sogen: ahah. so it _is_ teamspeak
[06:01] <xtknight> zero, open another terminal and use "sudo iwevent" to watch for wireless events on the device
[06:01] <zero> ok
[06:01] <sogen> Daverocks: then whta i can do ?
[06:01] <Daverocks> sogen: i myself also had noise issues with teamspeak
[06:01] <xtknight> zero, and then you'll have to try some iwconfig commands...or network-manager maybe to see if it can find the access point.  or set the ESSID.  btw are you using WPA or WEP or anything?
[06:02] <Daverocks> sogen: check out your teamspeak settings
[06:02] <talki1> how to change application for openning files
[06:02] <zero> wep
[06:02] <billy> xtknight: well, I'd ~like~ to be able to click the unmaximize button and it actually unmaximize.  As of now the window doesn't resize at all.  It just "bounces".  Tried looking in Configuration Editor, but I can't see where to set a pixel size.
[06:02] <xtknight> zero, alright.  well did you try system->administration->network and setting the wireless settings there?
[06:02] <zero> it just can't find the access point i think
[06:02] <xtknight> billy, which window?
[06:02] <zero> yep
[06:02] <Raeth> GNOME's acting slow and my computer's fans keep speeding up to handle an apparent strain. Is this normal?
[06:02] <billy> xtknight: swiftfox.
[06:02] <xtknight> zero, well try again now that we did ifconfig, etc
[06:03] <zero> xtknihgt, i thought that was supposed to locate the access point
[06:03] <xtknight> billy, it is unmaximizing actually just grab it on the far side of the window border
[06:03] <Daverocks> sogen: the thing is that teamspeak uses oss, not alsa >.>
[06:03] <Daverocks> Raeth: not usually, no
[06:03] <morrolan> Hi, in Edgy, how can I stop a window being full-szie regardless of whether it is maximized or not?  When I restore the window, it is still fullscreen by default?
[06:03] <xtknight> zero, i thought so too ;P.  but you can manually enter an ESSID perhaps
[06:03] <OmegaNine_> Can someone sugest a good TV viewing program? (like for a TV tuner card)
[06:03] <zero> xtknight, yeah, i did it but just nothing happens
[06:03] <xtknight> zero, "sudo iwconfig eth1 essid HERE-IS-MY-SSID"
[06:03] <Raeth> Is there any way I can speed Ubuntu up or check to see what might be causing the slowdown?
[06:03] <billy> xtknight: right.  i know how to do it manually.  but I thought I could maybe set it automatically so I don't have to set the unmaximize size every reboot.  but, it's no big deal.  just thought I could find it.
[06:04] <xtknight> billy, oh not sure, sorry
[06:04] <Daverocks> Raeth: type "top" at a terminal
[06:04] <zero> xtknight, well i actually did it in network manager
[06:04] <erUSUL> Raeth: check in 'top' the CPU consumers
[06:04] <xtknight> zero, try the iwconfig ESSID cmd.  then watch iwevent.
[06:04] <xtknight> zero, btw has iwevent printed anything
[06:04] <Le_Frog> hey, is there an specific channel to talk about Feisty? :)

[06:05] <morrolan> Hi, in Edgy, how can I stop a window being full-szie regardless of whether it is maximized or not?  When I restore the window, it is still fullscreen by default?
[06:05] <xtknight> morrolan, you can resize it.  grab the edges of the window... same question as billy it seems though
[06:05] <xtknight> :O
[06:05] <cables> FlyingSquirrel32, ??
[06:05] <FlyingSquirrel32> but they don't have any avatars included, the should have a small selection
[06:05] <cables> FlyingSquirrel32, i didn't ask that
[06:05] <morrolan> xtknight - I know I can resize it, but I want it smaller by default.
[06:06] <xtknight> cables, i did
[06:06] <zero> xtknight, its just scannining but nothing found
[06:06] <FlyingSquirrel32> cables: back at 10:58 you said I was off-topic
[06:06] <zero> xtknight, "scan request completed"
[06:06] <xtknight> zero, interesting.  even entering the SSID wont work?
[06:06] <cables> FlyingSquirrel32, I don't remember... sounds on-topic to me.
[06:06] <Raeth> Most apps will remember the size you drag it to, but some apps don't take any notice
[06:06] <xtknight> zero, what happens in iwevent after you do "sudo iwconfig eth1 essid asdf-SSID-here"
[06:06] <zero> yep didn't work
[06:06] <morrolan> billy have you found out a satisfactory solution?
[06:07] <billy> morrolan: i'm looking through the Configuration Editor.
[06:07] <zero> xtknight, let me check
[06:07] <xtknight> billy, it could also be in about:config for firefox/swiftfox.  google default window size perhaps?
[06:07] <morrolan> billy I've looked in everything which seems relevant (i.e. nautilus) but I didn't find anything :(
[06:07] <xtknight> morrolan, any program in particular ?
[06:07] <Raeth> Barely anything is using my CPU and the fans keep going crazy
[06:07] <FlyingSquirrel32> So... my question was, where can I get a nice selection of avatars I can present to my users?
[06:07] <morrolan> xtknight - yes, nautilus!
[06:08] <xtknight> morrolan, alright that would be in gconf-editor if anything.  not sure though
[06:08] <zero> xtknight, well nothing, just appears a msg "essid name set", and then keep scanning
[06:08] <billy> morrolan: yeah.  me neither.  I try to unmaximize and it just stays the same size.  it's weetoded.
[06:08] <morrolan> xtknight it is only nautilus that bothers me
[06:08] <xtknight> zero, specify MAC address of AP then
[06:08] <xtknight> zero, "sudo iwconfig eth1 ap 00:00:00:00:00:00"  etc
[06:08] <Daverocks> zero: "sudo iwconfig iwlist eth1 scan"? or have you done that?
[06:08] <xtknight> morrolan, please see http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=nautilus+default+size&btnG=Google+Search
[06:08] <ardchoille> billy: Did you try to click unmax and then resie the window, and then quit and restart to see if the new size settings kept?
[06:08] <xtknight> Daverocks, ya he's scanned, cant find.  trying manual MAC ap
[06:09] <Firefoxman> What would be the best PCI Wireless USB card to work with?
[06:09] <zero> xtknight, ok i just cant know that.... 'cause the router it's not in my place
[06:09] <Raeth> Both the Debian live CD and Windows XP are way faster than this Ubuntu 6.10
[06:09] <zero> Daverocks, i'll probe it now
[06:09] <Daverocks> xtknight: hum. can he associate with anything?
[06:09] <xtknight> zero, ok try Daverocks' command
[06:09] <billy> ardchoille: yeah.  they never keep over restarts.
[06:09] <xtknight> Daverocks, i dont think so
[06:09] <ardchoille> billy: :(
[06:10] <xtknight> billy, try resizing and then File->Quit to properly exit the app/save size setings?  just a guess
[06:10] <Firefoxman> vox754: What would be the BEST PCI card to buy?
[06:10] <xtknight> i think atheros is good for linux
[06:10] <Daverocks> zero: you _can_ find the BSSID (MAC) of the access point as long as you can see it somehow. BSSIDs are easier to find out than ESSIDs
[06:10] <billy> xtknight: will try.
[06:10] <Firefoxman> I would like to know before I buy one that isnt supported, likte the USB I got.
[06:10] <zero> Daverocks, it says unrecognised wireless request eth1
[06:10] <xtknight> !wireless
[06:10] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:10] <Daverocks> zero: sorry, i gave the wrong command, try "sudo iwlist eth1 scan"

[06:15] <Daverocks> zero: does the network have a visible ESSID? or is it <hidden>?
[06:15] <Puppy1> I need help with getting MPlayer to work in Firefox. I have downloaded the extenstion but I do not know how to install it. I found this: http://www.streamingradioguide.com but I don't really understand it. :) Can anyone help?

[06:15] <gatorworks> anyone know how to triple boot ubuntu, vista, osx on a macbook pro?
[06:16] <xtknight> Puppy1, i mean , "sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer"

[06:16] <NBX> I have a problem with MySQL - firsly i cant connect to 'root'@'localhost', then it shows me that connect at server 'localhost' failed and then that it is lost during the query!
[06:16] <billy> gatorworks: there IS a way though.  check macosx_86 forums.
[06:16] <gavinjb> NBX, first are you trying to connect with root from the machine that MySQL is installed on, if not you will have to setup permissions for your other machine
[06:16] <Firefoxman> !samba > firefoxman
[06:16] <zero> Daverocks, nothing
[06:17] <NBX> gavinjb, well it is installed to Linux Ubuntu and i am doing at the same server everything, with sudo permissions, but localhost = <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:17] <zero> Daverocks, it just says "scan request completed"
[06:17] <Raeth> Does anyone know what could possibly be slowing down an otherwise fresh installation of Ubuntu?
[06:17] <gavinjb> NBX, also what are you using to conenct MySQL, MySQL Query browser?
[06:17] <zero> Daverocks, and keep showing that msg
[06:17] <Daverocks> zero: only iwevent should say that, what about the output of iwlist eth1 scan? does _that_ say an ESSID?
[06:17] <Puppy1> xtknight, it seams that it is already installed. but when I go somewhere where it should work it does not.
[06:17] <NBX> gavinjb, "mysql -u root -p"
[06:18] <Daverocks> Raeth: hmm, nothing seems to be hogging the CPU in top?
[06:18] <xtknight> is there an "rc-update" (i.e. gentoo) for ubuntu?
[06:18] <vox754> Raeth, graphics card?
[06:18] <andi5> hi... how do i set the vga setting grub *itself* will use? thanks for any hint!
[06:18] <theacolyte> NBX: localhost does not = <IP_ADDRESS>, localhost is *always* <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:18] <Raeth> Daverocks: Xorg is taking about 4% CPU
[06:18] <zero> Daverocks, yes the essid appears there
[06:18] <NBX> theacolyte, oh, ok
[06:18] <Daverocks> Raeth: yeah, check what video drivers you're using
[06:18] <xtknight> Raeth, slow pc?  try gnome-system-monitor and see what's going on with the cpu
[06:19] <Daverocks> zero: ok, so have you tried "iwconfig eth0 essid YourESSID"?
[06:19] <rambo3> zero sudo iwconfig eth1 essid "" && sudo iwconfig eth1 key on && sudo iwconfig mode managed
[06:19] <andi5> i mean, it seems to load in 720x400, but my monitor does not support that
[06:19] <AngryElf_> the vm-server binary installation is failing because /etc/xinetd and /etc/inetd don't exist -- what' the fix for this?
[06:19] <blackslash> Can I get  help with Valknut here, or is it a better place to ask for that?
[06:19] <Daverocks> rambo3: he said there IS an essid
[06:19] <ferronica> i am unable to login normally in ubuntu 6.10
[06:19] <Puppy1> xtknight, it seams that it is already installed. what do I do?
[06:19] <Daverocks> andi5: grub, or the linux kernel boot messages?
[06:19] <zero> Daverocks, i do that in the manager network, but i'll try the command
[06:19] <rambo3> Daverocks, it wont hur to retype it
[06:20] <andi5> Daverocks: grub, i do not see it (before i load the kernel)
[06:20] <zero> rambo3, ok just give me a seccond
[06:20] <xtknight> Puppy1, hmm it's a little more complicated then.  you can use "about:plugins" in firefox to see if it detects the plugin.  32bit firefox?
[06:20] <Raeth> xtknight: the system monitor's CPU graph is all over the place. It's shooting from 6% to up to 50% at random
[06:20] <Daverocks> andi5: you're using standard text grub?
[06:20] <Puppy1> ok
[06:20] <ferronica> i am unable to login normally in ubuntu 6.10
[06:20] <bentech> hi
[06:20] <rambo3> zero those commands you need to fill in
[06:20] <andi5> Daverocks: yes, i think so..
[06:20] <xtknight> Raeth, type "dmesg".  anything odd?
[06:20] <Daverocks> ferronica: what do you mean by not "normally"?
[06:20] <blackslash> Can I get  help with Valknut here, or is it a better place to ask for that?

[06:24] <whoppix> hey all. i have the following problem.. i have a thinkpad, with an external screen attached to it, and i want ubuntu to automatically switch to a higher resolution if the external monitor is attached. (or at least it should dedect it on x start) is there any tutorial how i can accomplish that? thanks for illumination in advance.
[06:24] <xtknight> ferronica, we need more detalis.  what symptoms, what did you try, etc?
[06:24] <zero> Daverocks, it says unrecognised wireless request
[06:24] <erUSUL> Flare183: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-78324.html
[06:24] <Daverocks> andi5: not sure why grub isn't honouring BIOS's resolution, look in /boot/grub/menu.lst, there may be a command in there that tells grub to switch resolution, which you don't want
[06:24] <ferronica> Daverocks: It just hangs when Nautilus window come
[06:24] <Daverocks> ferronica: ok, so it does start up, and you can log in?
[06:24] <berent> Daverocks : fs is ok as i booted it but now if i try to move it then the dir will be overwritten without the part which was transferred before power cut
[06:24] <xtknight> Daverocks, i believe "eth1 key open" is a separate command
[06:24] <Daverocks> zero: your wireless interface IS eth1?
[06:24] <xtknight> zero,  Daverocks, you have to do "open" and setting the key separately per. manual for iwconfig
[06:25] <ferronica> Daverocks: after login
[06:25] <andi5> Daverocks: yep, i checked that file... i also added "vga=773", but it does not seem to have any effect
[06:25] <bentech> atheros
[06:25] <erUSUL> Flare183: the problem may be in /etc/hosts or in /etc/hostname
[06:25] <zero> Daverocks, yet it is
[06:25] <ferronica> Daverocks: a window came Nautilus
[06:25] <blackslash> Is it any good DC clients? That are easy to use...
[06:25] <berent> Daverocks : fs is ok as i booted it but now if i try to move it then the dir will be overwritten without the part which was transferred before power cut
[06:25] <gavinjb> NBX, how did you install mysql
[06:25] <xtknight> Flare183, may need to use single user mode (Recovery) and edit /etc/hosts or /etc/hostname as erUSUL suggested.
[06:25] <ferronica> Daverocks: there ubuntu hangs
[06:25] <NBX> gavinjb, apt-get mysql-server mysql-client
[06:25] <zero> xtknight, ? didnt get it
[06:25] <NBX> gavinjb, apt-get install tb
[06:25] <Daverocks> xtknight: sure? eth1 isn't parsed as a command, it's parsed as an interface, that command has worked for me
[06:25] <ferronica> Daverocks: i just loggeg in safe mode
[06:26] <xtknight> zero, passing on some info to Daverocks  , i know next to nothing about wireless
[06:26] <xtknight> :P
[06:26] <Raeth> xtknight: I pasted my dmesg. Are they meant to be that big? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14219/
[06:26] <xtknight> Raeth, yup
[06:26] <Daverocks> ferronica: hangs as in totally locks up?
[06:26] <whoppix> i btw already played around with a second screen in the xorg.conf, but not sure how i would attach that second screen to the device.
[06:26] <xtknight> Daverocks, ahh not sure, just looking in the manual
[06:26] <zero> Daverocks, ok
[06:26] <xtknight> Daverocks, the error he recv'd seemed like 'invalid syntax'
[06:26] <vox754> Raeth, are you on PC or laptop?
[06:26] <Daverocks> berent: um, the filesystem can be ok and accessible, but still have errors
[06:26] <ferronica> Daverocks: not totally keyboard works
[06:27] <Raeth> vox754: PC, do you want specs?
[06:27] <Daverocks> xtknight: yes, but i've had problems with bad drivers before where the wireless interface actually doesn't recognise standard wireless commands
[06:27] <berent> Daverocks : ok but now the dir at original place is gone
[06:27] <berent> Daverocks : is there any chance
[06:27] <vox754> Raeth, YES. You are using Feisty
[06:27] <knapper> I'm fixing to reboot and format, what am I forgetting to backup? :)
[06:27] <Daverocks> berent: hm, and not all of it is transferred to where you wanted?
[06:27] <ferronica> Daverocks: i just logged in change session
[06:27] <berent> Daverocks : yes
[06:27] <Daverocks> ferronica: so what part "hangs"?
[06:27] <zero> Daverocks, so, theres anything i can do?
[06:27] <xtknight> Raeth, scrolling through, i see: IO-APIC  issues with IRQ.   some ACPI problems.    i also see lots of flooding on the network adapter.  iptables it looks like?
[06:27] <gavinjb> nbx, try loading synaptic and checking which version of mysql you have installed as you might have some how managed to install 2 version that are conflicting
[06:28] <Raeth> xtknight: I have a few things set in Firestarter
[06:28] <NBX> gavinjb, how can i launch it?
[06:28] <ferronica> Daverocks: nautilus hangs at startup
[06:28] <gavinjb> do you have ubuntu server installed or ubuntu
[06:28] <NBX> yes
[06:28] <xtknight> Raeth, it *could* be the problem. i would disable firestarter and iptables, and see what hapepns
[06:28] <NBX> no
[06:28] <NBX> i dont know
[06:28] <Daverocks> zero: i think your drivers are ok because the scan worked
[06:28] <ferronica> Daverocks: you know a Nautilus window come
[06:28] <gavinjb> which?
[06:28] <deerhunter> does any one know how I would uninstall my audio card then reinstall it?
[06:28] <NBX> gavinjb, i dont know
[06:28] <Daverocks> ferronica: yeah
[06:28] <zero> Daverocks, i think that too
[06:28] <Raeth> xtknight: Okay, but how do I disable iptables? I thought it was built into the kernel?
[06:28] <xtknight> deerhunter, why do you want to reinstall?
[06:28] <Firefoxman> I changed my hostname, and now NONE of my applications will start.
[06:29] <Daverocks> zero: what drivers and card are you using?
[06:29] <vox754> Raeth, I think it may be your video card, but I don't know which card you have.
[06:29] <ferronica> Daverocks: just there it hangs
[06:29] <xtknight> Raeth, not sure.  just wipe the rules.  disabling firestarter should do it
[06:29] <Daverocks> andi5: mm, the "vga" option is only relevant to the kernel itself
[06:29] <Raeth> vox754: Does the video card affect Python's performance?
[06:29] <zero> Daverocks, card  it's a pro/wireless intel 2200
[06:29] <gavinjb> goto systems menu in gnome and select administration and Synaptics Package Manager
[06:29] <Daverocks> ferronica: ok, just nautilus hangs? can you still move your mouse?
[06:29] <ferronica> Daverocks: but keyboard work
[06:29] <deerhunter> xthknight, 100% for the volume now is what 50% used to be
[06:29] <Daverocks> zero: i have exactly the same card :D
[06:29] <xtknight> Daverocks, driver for zero's card is ipw2200
[06:29] <xtknight> seemed to have been loaded
[06:29] <Raeth> xtknight: I can uninstall Firestarter- will that disable it?
[06:29] <ferronica> Daverocks: yes i can move my mouse
[06:29] <Daverocks> xtknight: i know, i use it ;)
[06:29] <xtknight> Raeth, probably
[06:29] <andi5> Daverocks: another idea was to specify something before executing "setup" in the grub shell.... but what? :)
[06:29] <Daverocks> ferronica: try killing nautilus and starting again
[06:30] <ferronica> Daverocks: but system dont boot after that Nautilus window
[06:30] <xtknight> andi5, check setvbe  http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=grub+video+mode&btnG=Google+Search
[06:30] <Daverocks> andi5: not sure, haven't had much experience with low level grub
[06:30] <vox754> Raeth, I used a "vesa" driver and everything was slow, just as you describe. Then I changed it to "via" and it all works okay.
[06:30] <zero> Daverocks, really
[06:30] <Daverocks> zero: yeah :P
[06:30] <xtknight> Raeth, ahh yeah also make sure your video drivers are installed (like vox754  said)
[06:30] <wilhart> I've been testing 7.04 for couple of months. About 2 weeks ago the CDROM drive stopped working after a kernel update. When a CDROM is inserted, I see the following dmesg output:
[06:30] <wilhart> [31402.497279]  ata2.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen
[06:30] <Raeth> vox754: I use the prop. fglrx Radeon drivers and have 3D accel.
[06:30] <ferronica> Daverocks: how to killl nautilus
[06:30] <Daverocks> zero: but i'm not using ubuntu at the moment, however, when i do, it works perfectly
[06:30] <zero> Daveroks, looking over the forums, ive heard some troubles with that card
[06:30] <Daverocks> ferronica: open a terminal and type "killall nautilus"
[06:30] <xtknight> intel wireless is generally stable
[06:30] <Daverocks> zero: i've had no troubles with it, it's pretty good
[06:31] <xtknight> zero it looks like your signal is weak.  does a window pc work?
[06:31] <ferronica> Daverocks: There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.
[06:31] <ferronica> Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work correctly.
[06:31] <ferronica> The last error message was:
[06:31] <ferronica> Unable to determine the address of the message bus (try 'man dbus-launch' and 'man dbus-daemon' for help)
[06:31] <ferronica> GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log in.
[06:31] <greig_> hi guys, is there a file where i can fix my grub boot, i installed xp yesterday and its messed my boot up
[06:31] <xtknight> !paste | ferronica

[06:31] <gavinjb> NBX, I am creating a new tab for this conversation, please look there are in the main area it is getting to confusing
[06:31] <xtknight> greig_, grub-install
[06:31] <Daverocks> ferronica: where did you see that message?
[06:31] <ferronica> Daverocks: oh
[06:31] <CarlFK> trying to install feisty in qemu - it can't find any drives - installer's dmesg shows "ide0: I/O resource 0x3F6-0x3F6 not free. ... ide0: ports already in use, skipping probe" - anyone know what is going on?
[06:31] <zero> xtknight, with windows i have no troubles, works perfectly
[06:31] <xtknight> greig_, are you on the livecd now?
[06:31] <xtknight> zero, ahh ok
[06:31] <zero> Daveroks, yeah its actually pretty good but with windows lol
[06:31] <NBX> gavinjb, what new tab - new chan?
[06:31] <greig_> xtknight : no the live cd wont boot, i used super grub
[06:31] <xtknight> greig_, supergrub?  hmm?
[06:31] <Daverocks> zero: my ipw2200 actually works _better_ under linux than under windows :D
[06:32] <greig_> xtknight : thats ment to sort out my grub?
[06:32] <ferronica> Daverocks: when i change my login sessiion then my system boots up , after booting it showed me this error window
[06:32] <LoneShadow> anyone know how to find what version of a particular lib file is ?
[06:32] <xtknight> greig_, no idea what super grub is
[06:32] <zero> Daverocks, but mine doesn't :(
[06:32] <xtknight> LoneShadow, hm like what lib file?  usually it's like  asdf.so.5 meaning version 5
[06:32] <greig_> xtknight : i just googled and it came up with that as a grub fix option
[06:32] <Daverocks> alright, well it's not good that gnome-settings-daemon doesn't start, it's a shame gnome doesn't give more information
[06:32] <LoneShadow> libdvdcss
[06:32] <LoneShadow> and libdvdcss2
[06:32] <shazzr> hmmm...some serious weird stuff going on here now. I've installed the nvidia driver with envy, but what meets me is just a black screen. I can get rid of the black screen by adding "Option "UseDisplayDevice" "DFP"" OR "Option "ConnectedMonitor" "DFP"" to my xorg.conf file. The only thing is, that it only runs t 800x600 AND there's a black border on the right....:S
[06:32] <xtknight> LoneShadow, but you can get the exact by checking the package.  "dpkg -S /path/to/lib"  then "dpkg -s packagename"
[06:32] <billy> greig_: super grub has a "fix mbr" option on it.  worked for me.
[06:32] <xtknight> LoneShadow, dpkg -s libdvdcss
[06:33] <Daverocks> zero: ok, you sure your interface is eth1? if you do "sudo iwconfig" is that the one that has the information?
[06:33] <greig_> xtknight but it has fixed my grub, however. when i choose my linux from the grub ment it says error cannot mount partition or words to that effect, any ideas?
[06:33] <zero> Daverocks, i'll send you the pastbin
[06:33] <gavinjb> NBX, nevermind try running the following apt-cache search mysql-server-5.0 and tell me if you get any results
[06:33] <ferronica> Daverocks: do you know what error is that for??
[06:33] <Daverocks> zero: k
[06:33] <xircx> whats the command to change what java im using?
[06:34] <LoneShadow> xtknight: thanks :)
[06:34] <NBX> gavinjb, current version
[06:34] <Daverocks> ferronica: well, it's difficult to troubleshoot _why_ it's happening, but it's why nautilus won't start
[06:34] <eldude> can someone help me out.. I did a ubuntu install, kernel is 2.6.17, i want to upgrade to 2.6.20
[06:34] <eldude> apt-get doesnt see 2.6.20
[06:34] <ferronica> Daverocks: ok thanx
[06:34] <zero> Daverocks, lol wtf, it says that im trying to be spamming the pastebin???
[06:34] <eldude> how can i go about getting apt-get configured to find that kernel ? 2.6.20
[06:34] <billy> eldude: you'll have to upgrade to Feisty.
[06:34] <Daverocks> zero: how is that possible, lol?
[06:34] <gavinjb> now try apt-cache search mysql-server-4.1
[06:34] <xtknight> gotta go, be back later
[06:34] <zero> Daverocks, lol i have no idea
[06:34] <xtknight> greig_, sorry ^

[06:35] <gavinjb> right then we no you only have 5.0 installed
[06:35] <greig_> billy : have u used supergrub?
[06:35] <eldude> well, i downloaded the latest distro
[06:35] <billy> greig_: yes.
[06:36] <billy> eldude: 7.04?
[06:36] <gavinjb> what is the exact error you get when yo run msql -u root -p
[06:36] <eldude> no
[06:36] <vox754> zero, you can use as many pastebins as you want, just close the current one and then use another one, and give another link
[06:36] <VladimirBG> when is fiesty due?
[06:36] <billy> VladimirBG: the 19th.
[06:36] <greig_> billy : i done the option u said to fix grub, and it did, but do u have any idea why when i choose the ubuntu install from grub it says cannot mount partition?
[06:36] <VladimirBG> 13 more days
[06:36] <zero> Daverocks, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14222/ ok now it just worked
[06:36] <VladimirBG> :)
[06:36] <eldude> can i do an inplace upgrade, or will i have to burn fiesty to CD
[06:36] <neil__> hey
[06:37] <neil__> how can I burn .vobs in ubuntu to a dvd video?
[06:37] <zero> wox754, yeah sorry, but it wasn't working, not sure why....
[06:37] <neil__> Nero express has a wizard for it.. can k3b do it?
[06:37] <Firefoxman> !vorbis | neil__
[06:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vorbis - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:37] <greig_> billy : im in my ubuntu now through supergrub, but without it in i cannot access this, its so strange
[06:37] <Firefoxman> OoO.
[06:37] <fabiano_> #ubuntu-br
[06:37] <Daverocks> zero: well the wireless card has recognised a ESSID request, but it's not actually associating with the AP. you sure it's "TURBONNET" and not "TURBONET" or something?
[06:37] <jatt> !ubuntu-pt
[06:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu-pt - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[06:38] <Toma-> neil__: google :<
[06:38] <berent> Daverocks : what does e2fsck -b =>alternative superblock mean
[06:38] <greig_> billy : ok thanks, 2 seconds
[06:38] <gavinjb> NBX, did you get my message, what is the exact error message you get when trying to login
[06:38] <neil__> :)
[06:38] <vox754> zero, don't put quotes around the essid
[06:38] <NBX> gavinjb, ERROR 1045 (28000) : Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
[06:38] <zero> Daverocks, what was the comand to scan for ap?
[06:39] <Daverocks> berent: i don't know much about the innards of filesystems, but i know that e2fsck is generally run on UNmounted filesystems
[06:39] <zero> Daverocks, i wanna check it
[06:39] <Daverocks> zero: sudo iwlist eth1 scan
[06:39] <Raeth> xtknight: No, it's still slow. In Windows I have to be running a highly intensive game for the fans to speed up
[06:39] <Daverocks> vox754: no, it's normal, the ESSID isn't inputted in quotes, but iwconfig displays it quoted
[06:39] <zero> Daverocks, ups.. heh...
[06:40] <GSS> I'm facing a problem in browsing internet while I can ping outside, I can apt-get any thing I can nslookup, no proxy defined
[06:40] <zero> Daverocks, it's actually TURBONETT

[06:40] <berent>  Daverocks
[06:40] <Daverocks> zero: hehe ;)
[06:40] <zero> Daverocks, what was the command to chance that?
[06:40] <NBX> gavinjb, same message
[06:40] <zero> Daverocks, change**
[06:40] <Daverocks> berent: yeah, what brought you to e2fsck? it's different to fsck
[06:40] <Daverocks> zero: sudo iwconfig eth1 essid TURBONETT
[06:41] <gavinjb> just found this on mysql website http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?11,34014,46593#msg-46593
[06:41] <vox754> !wifi > zero
[06:41] <berent> what will i use Daverocks fsck -a ?
[06:41] <Smerity> hey there - anyone know the easiest way to extract a file from a multi-volume RAR archive? Gnome's default Archive Manager doesn't handle it
[06:41] <gavinjb> NBX, give it a try
[06:41] <vox754> !rr
[06:41] <vox754> !rar
[06:41] <zero> vox754, what do you mean?
[06:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rr - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:41] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[06:41] <Firefoxman> Umm... For some reason, after I started ubuntu, I had a blank windows open called gnome-panel, and it looks like http://img384.imageshack.us/img384/2374/screenshotii7.png
[06:41] <NBX> gavinjb, ok, thanks
[06:41] <Smerity> thx vox754
[06:41] <chell> quick question: Is the default installation of Ubuntu (from the LiveCD) 100% free (as defined by RMS/the Free Software Foundation)
[06:42] <zero> Daverocks, is unassociated yet
[06:42] <vox754> zero, you don't have to ask the same question over and over again, all those commands are documented. Also try "man iwconfig", "man ifconfig", "man interfaces", it is explained there.
[06:42] <greig_> billy : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14224/
[06:42] <greig_> billy : there u go
[06:42] <Firefoxman> chell: Yes. It is GPLed.
[06:42] <Firefoxman> !gpl | chell
[06:42] <ubotu> chell: gpl is the GNU General Public License. See http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html
[06:43] <Daverocks> berent: not sure, i don't use fsck manually, you can just specify _one_ mount point or device for fsck to check instead of -A
[06:43] <vox754> chell, YES. That is the reason why some !codecs don't work.
[06:43] <zero> vox754, ok sorry...
[06:43] <chell> okay
[06:43] <Daverocks> zero: do you see the new essid in "sudo iwconfig eth1"?
[06:43] <billy> greig_: is Ubuntu on hda4?
[06:43] <zero> Daverocks, yep
[06:43] <Smerity> totally got it, thx for answering the silly q vox754 =]
[06:43] <Firefoxman> vox754: Also, some codecs need to be paid for, such as the DVD codec, and some cannot be exported outside the US.
[06:43] <vox754> Smerity, okay
[06:43] <crdlb> chell, well not 100% but close
[06:43] <greig_> billy : im not entirly sure, im new to linux
[06:44] <Raeth> In my Services config, hdparm is unchecked. Should it be on?
[06:44] <Firefoxman> For some reason, after I started ubuntu, I had a blank windows open called gnome-panel, and it looks like http://img384.imageshack.us/img384/2374/screenshotii7.png
[06:44] <chell> okay
[06:44] <crdlb> chell, for example feisty includes the closed ath_hal module
[06:44] <chell> I read somewhere that RMS doesn't use it because of that
[06:44] <rhys> since multimedia keys dont seem to repeat, im guessing that the command to change volume or what not is looped until ubuntu receives the key release. how does it do this?
[06:44] <billy> greig_: sudo fdisk -l should tell you.
[06:44] <greig_> billy : ok thanks 2 ticks
[06:45] <greig_> billy : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14225/
[06:45] <Dante123> hi all......I installed a .deb package for the Firstclass Client (internal email type program popular among school boards etc.)......I already had the earlier 8.09 version working...but the new 8.3 adds some new features....anyway......it worked ONCE.....but the second time I went to use it.....it hangs on the opening logo screen.......nothing about problems with this on ubuntu forums or when I google....any suggestions? Weird part
[06:46] <rambo3> crdlb, does it ? or does it include link for download of those modules
[06:46] <Dante123> worked that one time....but not after that
[06:46] <Daverocks> zero: do you see the mac address of the AP in "sudo iwlist eth1 scan"?
[06:46] <crdlb> rambo3, the feisty livecd works with my atheros card out of the box
[06:46] <billy> greig_: yeah, the menu.lst is a little misconfigured.
[06:46] <ctothej> how can I start my ssh server?
[06:46] <crdlb> rambo3, and the ath_hal modules is not OSS
[06:46] <Daverocks> Firefoxman: do you still see that when you're not using beryl?
[06:46] <greig_> billy : arghhhh, is there any chance u could reconfigure it?
[06:47] <greig_> billy : or is there a program or something i could use?
[06:47] <zero> Daverocks, yes
[06:47] <xircx> how do i uninstall a older version of java
[06:47] <zero> Daverocks, i see it there
[06:47] <Firefoxman> Daverocks: How do I unload it?
[06:47] <ace> Hi all
[06:47] <Daverocks> ctothej: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
[06:47] <rambo3> crdlb, the you are correct
[06:47] <Daverocks> Firefoxman: you should be able to select a different window manager in beryl-manager
[06:48] <billy> greig_: I'll give it a shot.  I would say go ahead and make a backup of your menu.lst, but there's really no point if it doesn't work, eh?
[06:48] <ace> where can i get synaptic's or apt's log of all the files installed and removed
[06:48] <ctothej> Daverocks: thanks. what about checking my ip address via command?
[06:48] <ace> or the most recent ones anyway
[06:48] <Daverocks> zero: ok, do "sudo iwconfig eth1 ap TheMACAddress"
[06:48] <Firefoxman> Daverocks: Yep, it goes away when I disable beryl
[06:48] <zero> Daverocks, ok
[06:48] <chili5555> Dante123: if you start it in a terminal does it spit out any errors?
[06:48] <refnumzx> my kernel is very mseed up, and my / parttion is full, i have no backup kernel to boot from is it possible to instal a kernel on the system from a live cd?
[06:48] <jatt> xircx: you uninstall an older version of java uninstalling the package where the older version of java came from.
[06:48] <Daverocks> ctothej: your internal IP, do ifconfig

[06:49] <Daverocks> Firefoxman: beryl is a bit buggy with things that should be hidden and such
[06:49] <Firefoxman> Daverocks: So, should I just live with it or w/o beryl?
[06:49] <gop> billy:  hi
[06:49] <ctothej> Daverocks: awesome thank you

[06:49] <gop> where is the autofix option
[06:49] <billy> gop:  pimpin.  did it work?  tried it out?
[06:49] <gop> nope
[06:50] <greig_> billy : its deffo not on hda3, so it must be hda2?
[06:50] <Daverocks> Firefoxman: heh, whatever's easier for you :P there may be a way to fix it though
[06:50] <gop> but maybe becuase I used wrong option
[06:50] <zero> Daverocks, ok, keeps unassociated
[06:50] <billy> gop: oh.  um.  I'd have to look through it myself.  I usually just explore around.  maybe "fix mbr" option.
[06:50] <HyDraGeN> hey whats the best program to video record my desktop? like i want to make a video tutorial, some people told me XvidCap but i didn't like it
[06:50] <hamiii> Has anyone seen a cursor that is half a square with a + in it and do they know how to get back to the regular cursor. Clicking does nothing now?
[06:50] <ctothej> Daverocks: It fails.
[06:50] <Daverocks> HyDraGeN: xvidcap is probably the best you'd be able to get for linux :P
[06:50] <HyDraGeN> ohhh there is a one istanbul?
[06:50] <Daverocks> ctothej: what fails? the ifconfig command?
[06:51] <HyDraGeN> thats its name?
[06:51] <Firefoxman> Daverocks: It seems to be fixed after reloading beryl, but, also, how to I make a window go UNDER the panel?
[06:51] <ctothej> Daverocks: says [fail]  next to the message Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server...
[06:51] <Daverocks> Firefoxman: don't know, i never used beryl with gnome :P
[06:51] <theacolyte> Firefoxman: go to #ubuntu-effects for those kinds of questions please

[06:52] <eReN_Ubuntu> slm trk yokmu?
[06:53] <bruenig> dapper 6.1?
[06:53] <Dante123> chili5555....it won't run from terminal......
[06:53] <ScreaminIke> can a default lamp stack handle asp.net? or is there something i'll need to use the .net framework?
[06:53] <Daverocks> zero: are you close enough?
[06:53] <bruenig> dapper is 6.06, edgy is 6.10
[06:53] <ctothej> Daverocks: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14227/
[06:53] <Daverocks> zero: like, what is the signal quality in the scan?
[06:53] <theacolyte> ScreaminIke: check out the momo project
[06:53] <theacolyte> mono, rather
[06:53] <Dante123> chili5555 command not found but the fcc file is right there????
[06:53] <ScreaminIke> ah. thx.
[06:53] <zero> Daverocks, quality 40/100
[06:54] <w4nabe> nm, yea 6.06
[06:54] <Daverocks> ctothej: yeah, you've already got a ssh server running
[06:54] <ctothej> it runs automatically?
[06:54] <Daverocks> zero: heh, that's not too good, usually you need at least 50/100
[06:55] <Daverocks> ctothej: usually yes, try ssh <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:55] <billy> greig_: ok try it out.  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14228/
[06:55] <greig_> billy : ok thanks i will do
[06:55] <w4nabe> bruenig: i meant 6.06
[06:55] <zero> Daverocks, ohhh..
[06:55] <zero> Daverocks, so it might be the problem
[06:55] <NevroPus> what plugin do I need to let GParted format a disk to NTFS?
[06:55] <ctothej> Daverocks: yep, i connect. thank you very much.
[06:55] <Dante123> how do i run something in terminal.....when typing the name of the file won't execute it.....but clicking on it starts the program gui?
[06:55] <Puppy1> can anyone help me get mplayer to work in Firefox?
[06:56] <Daverocks> ctothej: np
[06:56] <Daverocks> Dante123: sure you're typing the right name?
[06:56] <zero> Daverocks, the issue is that im connected to my ethernet card, and can't get closer to the ap to try
[06:56] <Daverocks> zero: hm.
[06:56] <Daverocks> zero: you might be interested in kismet
[06:56] <Dante123> yes.....exactly as it appears in the window
[06:56] <billy> !grub
[06:56] <zero> Daverock, what's that?
[06:56] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[06:56] <Daverocks> Dante123: which app?
[06:57] <Daverocks> zero: it's a wireless sniffer and monitorer
[06:57] <Dante123> firstclass client 8.3 for linux.....debian package installed it
[06:57] <bruenig> Puppy1, have you done "sudo apt-get remove totem-mozilla"
[06:57] <Daverocks> zero: sudo apt-get install kismet
[06:57] <gop> hmm
[06:57] <NevroPus> what plugin do I need to let GParted format a disk to NTFS?
[06:58] <bruenig> NevroPus, none
[06:58] <Daverocks> NevroPus: ntfsprogs?
[06:58] <zero> Daverocks, ok
[06:58] <Daverocks> NevroPus: yeah, newer GParted versions should do it
[06:58] <DB42> hi, why dont i have the latest linux-headers for my curernt kernel version on 6.10 (<IP_ADDRESS>) ?
[06:58] <greig_> billy : i cant replace the file as it says i dont have permision?
[06:58] <Puppy1> brueng, not yet. I found this guide: http://www.linux-sxs.org/multimedia/mplayermozplug.html but I don't understand it.
[06:58] <berent> I have an extended partition where I intend to install applications some applications without touching my root dir
[06:58] <bruenig> DB42, because that kernel is not an ubuntu kernel
[06:58] <berent> how will i do it
[06:58] <bruenig> Puppy1, you haven't done anything have you
[06:58] <Daverocks> zero: it's a console curses app, but it's still got a nice interface. you'll need to add information to /etc/kismet.conf to tell it about your ipw2200 card
[06:59] <bruenig> Puppy1, you can enable it very easily from the repositories
[06:59] <DB42> bruenig: so why did ubuntu install it for me ?
[06:59] <billy> greig_: open it as superuser.  `gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst`
[06:59] <CapaH> Hey, is anyone here familiar with EncFS ?
[06:59] <zero> Daverocks, and how i do that?
[06:59] <gop> billy:  all i was able to do is get it to boot in to my windows partion
[06:59] <zero> Daverocks, sorry im totaly new on linux ...
[06:59] <berent> I have an extended partition where I intend to install applications some applications without touching my root dir how will i do it?
[06:59] <Dante123> do i have to do something so that the program can be run from terminal?
[06:59] <billy> gop: you didn't see "fix MBR" option?
[06:59] <Daverocks> zero: no problem, i had issues with it the first time as well
[06:59] <DB42> strange... how did i get <IP_ADDRESS> on my system :|
[06:59] <Dante123> trying to see if there are error messages when you start it from terminal
[06:59] <Daverocks> zero: did you do the install?
[06:59] <bruenig> DB42, I don't believe there is a <IP_ADDRESS> kernel, seeing as I am using edgy and have the most up to date kernel they offer and I know that feisty is going with 2.6.20
[06:59] <Dante123> but it won't start
[07:00] <bruenig> DB42, do you have some third party repositories
[07:00] <Puppy1> bruenig, I have gone into synaptic and downloaded the plugin. but I don't know how to install it.
[07:00] <DB42> dont belive so
[07:00] <hamiii> I have this strang cursor (half square with + in it) I can't get the machine to do anything but switch between sessions ie ctl-alt-f1 any suggestions?
[07:00] <zero> Daverocks, it's downloading the package
[07:00] <DB42> hmm... /me thinks i might have compiled it long time ago
[07:00] <Daverocks> zero: kk, wait until it's installed
[07:00] <berent> I have an extended partition where I intend to install applications some applications without touching my root dir how will i do it?
[07:00] <DB42> ahh, yes... :|
[07:00] <bruenig> Puppy1, what did you install
[07:00] <gop> billy:  nope
[07:01] <Puppy1> bruenig, let me check
[07:01] <zero> Daverocks, ok
[07:01] <billy> gop: i'll fire it up on my laptop.  just a sec.
[07:01] <Daverocks> berent: install applications that are expecting a typical linux filesystem structure?
[07:01] <gop> thanks
[07:01] <Daverocks> berent: i mean, _are_ you installing those types of apps?
[07:01] <DB42> when i try to compile VMWARE TOOLS it tells me my kernel include dir doesn't match my kernel version, but it's all from the same place, how can that be ?
[07:01] <berent> Daverocks : like crystalreports
[07:01] <Puppy1> bruening, MPlayer-Plugin for Mozilla
[07:01] <berent> Daverocks : may be wine related also, then?
[07:01] <bruenig> Puppy1, the name of it, is it mozilla-mplayer?
[07:01] <ctothej> Why can I not run su from bash but I can run sudo?
[07:02] <NevroPus> is there any programs for ubuntu that can recover files from a harddrive?
[07:02] <bruenig> !sudo | ctothej
[07:02] <ubotu> ctothej: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:02] <greig_> billy ok that worked , i'll restart and see how it goes, thanks m8
[07:02] <Puppy1> bruenig, yes
[07:02] <Daverocks> berent: not sure
[07:02] <Daverocks> ctothej: the root account is locked by default on ubuntu, meaning you can't login as root
[07:02] <bruenig> Puppy1, ok, open a terminal and do "sudo apt-get remove totem-mozilla" and it should be good to go
[07:02] <orangefly> why can i get to my server with the IP but not the server name....i have another server and it works fine with the same settings....(different ip's ofcourse....
[07:02] <zero> Daverocks, done
[07:02] <NevroPus> is there any programs for ubuntu that can recover files from a harddrive?
[07:03] <Jaikkanen> i have recieved an error prompt after trying to open qtparted
[07:03] <Jaikkanen> im unsure of the problem
[07:03] <ctothej> Daverocks: oh interesting. as long as I can run commands as root using sudo i should be fine then
[07:03] <billy> greig_: i'll be here.
[07:03] <gop> orangefly:  what your server do
[07:03] <Daverocks> ctothej: sudo is used to give certain users root privs, but having the root account locked allegedly provides extra security
[07:03] <Firefoxman> WILL I need anti-virus software, firewalls, and anti-spy apps for windows when I run it in Qemu?
[07:03] <bruenig> Jaikkanen, are on on gnome or kde?
[07:03] <w4nabe> hi, every time i start up dapper, the system hangs, and then gives me an emergency shell. can anybody help? here's the error http://pastebin.ca/427111
[07:03] <Daverocks> ctothej: try sudo -i, it'll give you a root shell
[07:03] <Dante123> okay...now the program is running.....but the logo screen stays on top...and doens't close after starting....weird!
[07:03] <DB42> nm, thanks for the help, fixed :)
[07:03] <Jaikkanen> bruenig: gnome.. i think
[07:03] <billy> gop: it's under the "GNU/Linux (Advanced)" option.
[07:04] <ctothej> Daverocks: ah nice. just what i was looking for.
[07:04] <bruenig> Jaikkanen, us gparted then, not qtparted
[07:04] <Daverocks> Firefoxman: yes, if you don't want that emulated windows system to get infected
[07:04] <bruenig> Jaikkanen, sudo apt-get install gparted
[07:04] <Daverocks> ctothej: ^_^
[07:04] <Daverocks> zero: ok, edit /etc/kismet.conf
[07:04] <Epic720> can anyone help me get libfaac.so installed?
[07:04] <zero> Daverocks: ok
[07:04] <orangefly> not much yet....just file and print sharing....just started with it....
[07:04] <Daverocks> zero: like sudo nano /etc/kismet.conf
[07:04] <Dante123> just ran it again....and now it worked fine....
[07:05] <Puppy1> bruenig, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14229/
[07:05] <zero> ok
[07:05] <zero> Daverocks: done
[07:05] <bonii> I am using Edgy Eft on my HP Pavillion laptop which has a 1.3 MP camera. Can anyone tell me how can I get it running on Edgy. In windows it shows up by default as an usb video device
[07:05] <Puppy1> brueng, this is what it said
[07:05] <orangefly> gop not much yet....just file and print sharing....just started with it....
[07:05] <Puppy1> ^
[07:05] <Daverocks> zero: do you see a config file, or is it blank?
[07:05] <Epic720> can someone help me, I am trying to get libfaac0 installed.
[07:05] <Jaikkanen> bruenig: i think i may have caused some damage.. as.. i used qtparted moments before, to reformat a partition.. it appeared to freeze up.. so i closed the software..i then opened it up.. and instead of reformating.. i just deleted.. to make it undesignated space.. that action succeeding.. after which.. i am then unable to make anymore actions upon the HDD
[07:05] <zero> it's blank
[07:06] <Daverocks> zero: alright, maybe the location is different on ubuntu
[07:06] <zero> Daverocks: it is blank
[07:06] <eldude> can i upgrade from Edgy to Fiesty without having to burn / boot the 7.0.4 CD? can i do an inplace install right from within Edgy to fiesty ?
[07:06] <Epic720> !libfaac
[07:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libfaac - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:06] <zero> Daverocks: ok
[07:06] <erUSUL> !upgrade | elude
[07:06] <gop> billy:  oh k
[07:06] <ubotu> elude: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[07:06] <Daverocks> zero: get out of nano with ctrl-X
[07:06] <Daverocks> zero: then do "sudo nano /etc/kismet/kismet.conf"
[07:06] <Jaikkanen> bruenig: the error prompt in the terminal is as the following: Error: File system was not cleanly unmounted!  You should run e2fsck.  Modifying an unclean file system could cause severe corruption.

[07:08] <billy> greig__: you're fdisc -l indicated that linux was on partitions 2 and 3.  you said "not 3" so I went with partition 2.  are you looking at your menu.lst?
[07:08] <neil__> I need to burn some .vobs (VIDEO_TS) folder to dvd so its playable on a dvd player
[07:08] <neil__> I just got tovid..
[07:08] <Jaikkanen> bruenig: did you not read my reply? or are you unable to help?
[07:08] <neil__> anyone tell me how to get it working, im lost
[07:08] <neil__> it runs fine
[07:08] <Daverocks> zero: ok, see the line that begins with "source="?
[07:08] <foutrelis> Firefoxman: You could install numlockx (I think that's the name)

[07:08] <felipe_gabriel> hello everybody! anyone knows how can I kill my x session to install the nvidia driver?
[07:08] <billy> greig__: it's easier to see it by `cat /boot/grub/menu.lst` in terminal.
[07:09] <greig__> billy : yea
[07:09] <felipe_gabriel> Im not being able to install cause x is running
[07:09] <Daverocks> zero: make that "source=ipw2200,eth1,ipw"
[07:09] <billy> greig__: scroll down to End Default options, where the kernels are listed.

[07:09] <achilles> need some help

[07:09] <achilles> how to play VCD.dat file on ubuntu
[07:09] <Daverocks> zero: also, is there a line somewhere above that saying "suiduser"?
[07:09] <achilles> Mplayer, VLC and Totem failed
[07:10] <shwag> anyone know a legitimate website that works in firefox/linux where I can download mp3s ?
[07:10] <felipe_gabriel> hello everybody! anyone knows how can I kill my x session to install the nvidia driver?
[07:10] <felipe_gabriel> Im not being able to install cause x is running
[07:10] <greig__> billy : yea.
[07:10] <billy> greig__: where it says "root" for each line, that's where /root is.  since it's the second partition on the first hard disk, it's (hd0,1).  number starts from 0, so the second is 1.
[07:10] <neil__> shwag: www.allofmp3.com works, legality is currently under debate
[07:10] <Jaikkanen> i have a problem involving qtparted, andnot properly unmounting a partition
[07:10] <Jaikkanen> can anyone help?
[07:10] <cables> !ask | Jaikkanen
[07:10] <ubotu> Jaikkanen: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:10] <theacolyte> !piracy | neil__

[07:10] <achilles> anybody
[07:10] <achilles> can help
[07:10] <Jaikkanen> cables: its rather long winded
[07:10] <theacolyte> i.e. allofmp3.com is illegal in the US
[07:11] <achilles> me to run .dat video files on ubuntu
[07:11] <billy> greig__: in the "kernel" line, there's another "root" line, which locates it a bit differently, by /dev/sda? location.  since it's the second, it's /dev/sda2.  that's all I changed.
[07:11] <cables> !paste > Jaikkanen
[07:11] <neil__> theacolyte: It is?
[07:11] <neil__> Fair enough
[07:11] <Daverocks> felipe_gabriel: switch to tty1 with ctrl-alt-F1, then do "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop". you can start it again later with "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start", assuming everything goes well :P
[07:11] <bruenig> theacolyte, but he may not be in the US
[07:11] <neil__> Anyone know how I can burn a VIDEO_TS folder as a playable dvd video? I've got tovid installed and working...
[07:11] <cables> Jaikkanen, paste the detailed description there, and ask a summarized version here.

[07:22] <Jaikkanen> billy: i hear ubuntu works good on beryl, i was interested on trying it out.. i think i will stick to ubuntu too because i dont wanna have to download and burn another one atm
[07:22] <bur[n] er> pitagoricus: are other machines connected to the router and the switch?  you could be having collisions
[07:23] <Jaikkanen> billy: you read my mind
[07:23] <Daverocks> zero: hooray, it works ;) might look better if you maximise your terminal window, press h for help and stuff, and Q (note the capital Q, you'll need to do shift-Q) to quit
[07:23] <bur[n] er> pitagoricus: do each of them work individually?
[07:23] <zero> Daverocks: lol ok, what is working??? :P

[07:34] <DB42> yes, i've installed it
[07:34] <cypher1> iratik, i think lftp can do a lot of things in command line..
[07:34] <iratik> lftp ?

[07:34] <bur[n] er> DB42: not only do you have to install it, it has to be running

[07:36] <DB42> where from ?
[07:36] <DB42> i've installed vmware-tools...
[07:36] <bur[n] er> zero: ask your question
[07:36] <cypher1> iratik, its pretty cool.. check it out whether it can help you :)
[07:36] <DB42> and i have vmware-user and vmware-guestd running
[07:36] <bur[n] er> DB42: you obviously didn't ;)
[07:36] <DB42> so how are those running ?
[07:36] <cypher1> zero, please ask
[07:37] <zero> how can i run a c++ code
[07:37] <bur[n] er> DB42: vmware-tools has to be running in ubuntu... not your host os
[07:37] <zero> i mean
[07:37] <DB42> i know that.. but i dont seem to have that file....
[07:37] <bur[n] er> zero: you compile it before you run it
[07:37] <zero> ubunt has a compiler for c++ right?
[07:37] <foutrelis> zero: sudo aptitude install build-essential :)
[07:37] <cypher1> zero, yes but you have to install build-essential
[07:37] <bur[n] er> DB42: so install it ;)  you have to get the vmware-tools tarball and compile it
[07:37] <xtknight> zero, sudo..........blah they got it :DP
[07:37] <zYe> i can not get my monitor to run my preferred resolution, please help
[07:37] <zero> lol ok
[07:37] <zero> i'll try now
[07:37] <xtknight> apt-get usually not aptitude ;P
[07:38] <xtknight> not that i know why but that's what people say
[07:38] <zero> wow this is amazing...
[07:38] <bur[n] er> zYe: video card, preferred res?
[07:38] <jburd> I see a lot of people using aptitude.   What's the difference between aptitude and apt-get?
[07:38] <sidny4> zYe: what kind of video card do you have?
[07:38] <DB42> i have the vmwaretools tar bvall
[07:38] <DB42> i've compiled and installed it :(
[07:38] <DB42> damn this crap
[07:38] <xtknight> aptitude has more features but i think apt-get is usually more stable/supported specifically for ubuntu or something
[07:38] <DB42> why doesn't it just work
[07:38] <zero> ok
[07:38] <zero> so
[07:38] <DB42> are you sure the process name is vmware-tools and not vmware-user ?
[07:38] <xtknight> never had aptitude damage anything

[07:41] <predaeus> zYe, I just came in so I did not follow all of the conversation, but probably you need to set refresh rate in xorg.conf
[07:41] <DB42> bur[n] er: it doesnt tell me in the bottom that i dont have vmware tools running
[07:41] <rbs-tito> gb__: Ubotu is a bot!

[07:42] <predaeus> rbs-tito, you can edit resolutions in /etc/X11/xorg.conf but make a backup of xorg.conf before.
