[12:01] <preaction> kane77: write one
[12:01] <tovella> Jowi: wow, i didn't know it was simply a matter of loading a module - don't do much with ntfs anymore.
[12:01] <bofh80> kane77, cos, in my very extreme opinion, it's bloatware
[12:01] <callidusfox> Anyone uses PGP encyption for email ? Can someone tell me if I need to give me private key to the person I want to have secure communication with? I understand that the public key is for signature, and so it the private key for actual encryption ?
[12:01] <bofh80> kane77, ie, it sucks
[12:01] <pietro10> callidusfox: I think so
[12:01] <irielion_> hey i just bought a new laptop and the system keeps freezing, witht he message: BUG: soft lockup detected on
[12:01] <irielion_> CPU#0!
[12:01] <Jowi> same here tovella, I haven't touched it in years. but I do have some friends (amazing by itself I know!)
[12:01] <irielion_> IIm really out of ideass
[12:01] <pietro10> irielion_: kernel fault - reinstall
[12:01] <dusty1> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23653/
[12:01] <TakeOut{u}> because something being 64bit is not a matter of just going, yay its 64 bit, especially with a whole VM and language
[12:01] <dusty1> i think i did it right..
[12:02] <preaction> callidusfox: no, you keep your private key private. you encrypt with your private key and decrypt with the public key
[12:02] <n2diy> callidusfox: no don't give your private key to anyone, just your public key.
[12:02] <irielion_> pietro10: i already did reinstall
[12:02] <Jowi> callidusfox, the public key you can give away to whoever you want. the private key is for signing.
[12:02] <siloko> anyone used a toshiba rescue disk to create a virtual machine in feisty (bit of a long shot I know!!)??
[12:02] <irielion_> pietro10: i did cd check and the check passed
[12:02] <pietro10> dusty: enable the Universe, Multiverse, and Restricted repos - else I don't know
[12:02] <kane77> preaction, there is already one for 32bit and according to java's principles write once run anywhere it should run no matter what (as long as jvm exists for the platform/os)
[12:03] <callidusfox> Jowi: n2diy: preaction: but then anyone can get my public key and decrypt the email even if I sent it not to them ?
[12:03] <tom_> hi i don't know if this is the right place to ask, but its about foss and the first on my bookmarks list so ill give it a shot. I work as an IT technician for a company, the guy that did the job before me designed a database, with tables and forms for a gui. along with reports, in microsoft access. I have migrated the data (tables) to mysql, but want to drop the access bulk altogether. However the database is vb heavy, and any efforts to open or convert are
[12:03] <tom_> fruitless. Is there an easy migration route for this, to any free software alternative, php? oo.org-base? anything?
[12:03] <pietro10> irielion_: Can you update your Linux kernel or does the screen freeze before you can?
[12:03] <preaction> kane77: so you answered your own question?
[12:03] <dusty1> pietro10: how do i do that?
[12:03] <dyrne> siloko: just get a torrent for xp
[12:03] <nickrud> !source-o-matic > dusty
[12:03] <pietro10> torn_: OpenOffice.org 2 has a database you can use
[12:03] <siloko> i was hoping to do it abov board . . .
[12:03] <kane77> preaction, not realy I still dont understand why it isn;t available :/
[12:03] <carolyn> r00tintheb0x, nope :/
[12:03] <pietro10> !access | torn_
[12:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about access - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:03] <dusty1> sorry i am somewhat new etc
[12:03] <pietro10> !database | torn_
[12:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about database - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:04] <irielion_> pietro10: well i can use it and sometimes it just works, i also updated of course, all lot of bugs have been reported witht hsi message and it seems to have to do with wireless
[12:04] <nickrud> !sourc-o-matic
[12:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sourc-o-matic - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:04] <nickrud> I cannot type today
[12:04] <irielion_> pietro10: however they are claimed to be resolved
[12:04] <r00tintheb0x> carolyn, you need to register so we can PM back and forth...
[12:04] <tom_> pietro10: yea, but is there an easy way to migrate my existing db to oo.org?
[12:04] <siloko> bloody annoying yo buy the os with your laptop but don't actually get the os :(
[12:04] <r00tintheb0x> i cant concentrate with text flying by @ 400mph
[12:04] <pietro10> It should already work as the file format is compatible
[12:04] <preaction> kane77: because nobody wrote one
[12:04] <bofh80> tom_, i believe i came across something very similar to what your looking for, how ever i will have to try and look it up again, as i well, forgot what it is :(
[12:04] <carolyn> r00tintheb0x, register where?
[12:04] <r00tintheb0x> here in irc.
[12:04] <pietro10> irielion_: I can't help you then, sorry. Try talking to the guys at #linux
[12:04] <dusty1> wow its hard to keep up and read what everyone is saying
[12:05] <dyrne> carolyn: /msg nickserv register somepassword
[12:05] <nickrud> dusty1, you need to go to http://ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic and follow the instructions there to rebuild your sources (at least)
[12:05] <tom_> bofh80: if you could that would be great, any opertunity to save money and my boss gives me a pay rise :D
[12:05] <pietro10> dusty1: I know
[12:05] <r00tintheb0x> carolyn, type this in this channel window: /msg nickserv help register
[12:05] <kane77> preaction, no there is written plugin...
[12:05] <pietro10> :-X
[12:05] <r00tintheb0x> or you can give me one of your messenger addresses
[12:05] <siloko> i suppose i could use vmware converter from within my xp install - but that involves booting into xp :)
[12:05] <noob> why doens't bittorrent show up in my menu?
[12:05] <stefg> tom_: OOo-BAse is probably your best shot, but be ready to re-implemet the VB stuff in one of OOo's macro languages. #openoffice should be able to give you hints
[12:05] <Jowi> callidusfox, http://aplawrence.com/Basics/gpg.html
[12:05] <r00tintheb0x> like MSN Yahoo or AIM.
[12:05] <pietro10> noob: Applications -> Internet
[12:05] <siloko> something i'm not keen on . . .
[12:05] <Azhi_Dahaka> has anyone configured an ati radeon xpress 200 on 6.06?
[12:05] <pietro10> But you only need to double-click on a .torrent file
[12:06] <dyrne> siloko: youve already been tainted just holding the rescue cd. might as well reboot :)
[12:06] <preaction> callidusfox: or this: http://www.gnupg.org/(en)/documentation/howtos.html
[12:06] <tom_> stefg: yea thats what i thought, but the amount of code is huge, its been built over like 3 years
[12:06] <n2diy> callidusfox: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public-key_cryptography
[12:06] <pietro10> !ati | Azhi_Dahaka
[12:06] <ubotu> Azhi_Dahaka: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:06] <carolyn> r00tintheb0x, it says i'm already registered
[12:06] <noob> pietro10: It's not there, I just installed ubuntu, it should be there
[12:06] <Azhi_Dahaka> are the binaries neccesary?
[12:06] <siloko> dyrne: lol
[12:06] <tom_> stefg: i was really looking for an automated conversion
[12:06] <Azhi_Dahaka> necessary?
[12:06] <stefg> tom_: ever heard the term vendor lock in?
[12:06] <bofh80> tom_, but since your problem is specfically with the VB, as such you've migrated the actual data, and i assume the VB is used as an Interface to the access data, is the problem that you need a whole new interface or that you don't code VB so can't understand the call he's making etc?
[12:06] <pietro10> noob: you only need to double-click a .torrent file
[12:06] <r00tintheb0x> carolyn, thats probably because your IRC nickname is super generic
[12:06] <r00tintheb0x> make it like carolyn_yourbirthday
[12:06] <r00tintheb0x> like
[12:06] <tom_> stefg: i know, not my fault, the techie before me made the bed, now ive gotta lie in it
[12:06] <r00tintheb0x> carolyn711979
[12:07] <pietro10> but if you really need a torrent, just go to Applications > Add/Remove and search for torrent or bittorrent
[12:07] <r00tintheb0x> then you can register
[12:07] <nickrud> noob, if you really want the bittorent menu item, enable it in system-prefs-main menu
[12:07] <dyrne> carolyn: or carolyn_ssn_mothersmaidenname
[12:07] <dusty1> i hate being new.. lol first time using ubuntu i use to be good with mandrivia a few years ago but yea..
[12:07] <tom_> bofh80: no i can code in vb, but thers just that much code that it would take me a hell of a long time to do it
[12:07] <novato_br> how can I get to install the codec h264 no ubuntu?
[12:07] <bofh80> uhm, does Mono compile VB code?
[12:07] <noob> nickrud: Aha thanks
[12:07] <pietro10> noob: Right-click on the Applications Menu and choose Edit
[12:07] <tom_> bofh80: i just want out of microsoft access
[12:08] <userfriendly> HI!
[12:08] <bofh80> tom_, yeah, it's completely unfriendly hehehe
[12:08] <stefg> tom_: i'm not talking about whose faut it was, but how to break the vendor lock. better asks the OOo experts if there is a conversion of VB possible (which i doubt)
[12:08] <nickrud> that's a nice change
[12:08] <tom_> bofh80: lol
[12:08] <userfriendly> I have a question
[12:08] <nickrud> !ask
[12:08] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:09] <userfriendly> If I install Ubuntu 7, will it erase all my files?
[12:09] <tom_> stefg: yea i was only joking lol, i looked into vb conversion, but no methods seem much past alpha
[12:09] <osxdude> !ubuntu
[12:09] <ubotu> Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com
[12:09] <nickrud> userfriendly, not unless you tell it to
[12:09] <PriceChild> userfriendly, no, you can make it shorten the windows partition and put ubuntu on the end
[12:09] <PriceChild> userfriendly, please keep backups just incase you make a mistake or things go wrong
[12:09] <whonicca> can someone help me install ubuntu please
[12:09] <dusty1> nickrud: i  did the auto generate thing you sent me to now what heh..
[12:09] <userfriendly> I mean over my 6.6 install
[12:09] <stefg> tom_: so you have a brilliant of sharpening your profile and tidying up the messy VB-code... Two-in-one :-)
[12:10] <pietro10> userfriendly: depends on what you do
[12:10] <stefg> *opportunity
[12:10] <Jowi> userfriendly, if you already have linux installed and the /home folder in a seperate partition then just tell it not to format /home
[12:10] <pietro10> userfriendly: otherwise, sorry
[12:10] <lancer> Okay - I give up - need to ask help. I've got about 8Gb of student files transfered onto a dir on my desktop via \cp -puRf so permissions etc are the same. I'm thinking I should be ROOT to make a DVD from the directory... when I try it seems to freeze up in nautilus CD-burner (launched via sudo command line)... I thinjk the way to do this is to log in as root (from log in screen) but it won't let me :-(
[12:10] <userfriendly> OK, thanks! Bye!
[12:10] <nickrud> dusty1, a sec
[12:10] <tom_> stefg: ha yea, in 3 years time lol
[12:10] <dv83r> ive downloaded a couple themes from gnome-look.org , they come as  blah.desktop, and i cant install them from the system>themes menu
[12:10] <VeganChick001> speaking of installing ubuntu, a grad student friend of my dad's did some usability testing for windows users (no linux experience) and 4/6 were given default setup options on install that would've wiped their entire windows system off
[12:10] <dv83r> im on fiesty fawn
[12:10] <osxdude> I have windows, and I had to reinstall. Now I have to activate. I have no internet connection because when I installed it it went right to the end of the 30-day period. How can I configure the wireless connection?
[12:11] <osxdude> !windows
[12:11] <ubotu> For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[12:11] <erUSUL> lancer: you should be able to burn a dvd as normal user...
[12:11] <whonicca> how many partitions does the normal installer make? ext3 and a swap?
[12:11] <VeganChick001> but apparently ubuntu says that you don't need any documentation to dual-boot w/ windows
[12:11] <dusty1> nickrud: thanks
[12:11] <TehRealNexGen> hi ive got a problem creating an iso http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x194/TehRealNexGen/screenshot1.png
[12:11] <noob> oh god, there is almost too many people here :)
[12:11] <whonicca> is reiserfs significantly faster than ext3?
[12:11] <tom_> ill try on the openoffice channel
[12:12] <lancer> No I can;t erUSUL because the normal user can't access the files with their user ownerships
[12:12] <pietro10> I just wound up wiping out Beryl
[12:12] <nickrud> dusty, you need to copy it to the right location, but first make a backup of the first one:  so:  in a terminal, type cp /etc/apt/sources.list ~/Desktop/sources.list.old
[12:12] <pietro10> It is still on but not functional
[12:12] <gif89apro> anyone know how to modify /etc/hosts to include a host file from another machine on my network?
[12:12] <Falstius> whonicca: not for daily use, only specialized benchmarks.
[12:12] <mangojambo> vai caga ..
[12:12] <erUSUL> lancer: not even for reading?
[12:12] <mangojambo> i mean, hello guys ..
[12:12] <dyrne> gif89apro: other than just appending the file?
[12:12] <pietro10> Never mind I fixed it
[12:12] <whonicca> Falstius: but is it still un par with ext3 for daily use?
[12:12] <Goop> osxdude: You are not helping anyone with windows problems here. Dont jsut tell people they are crazy
[12:12] <whonicca> on*
[12:12] <Jowi> lancer, first, you should use gksudo instead of sudo with GUI apps. second, see if the DVD media is bad. third, use a different application to burn with.
[12:12] <pietro10> mangojambo: hi
[12:13] <osxdude> Well I have a windows problem.
[12:13] <gif89apro> dyrne: yes, i want to have one master list that all my machines use
[12:13] <lancer> Jowi, gksudo - I'll try :-)
[12:13] <osxdude> Goop: well I have a windows problem
[12:13] <Falstius> whonicca: yeah, although it lacks some of the compatibility of ext3fs.  I used it for awhile on my home directory and it only cause headaches.
[12:13] <nickrud> erm, dusty1 did you see that thing I wrote for dusty above ;)
[12:13] <Falstius> gif89apro: yeah, you can with nis+.
[12:13] <Goop> osxdude: >.< sorry, i thought someone else had the prob lol
[12:13] <whonicca> Falstius: how so, im in the middle of installing and i picked reiserfs ;O
[12:14] <pietro10> osxdude: what's your problem?
[12:14] <Goop> osxdude: will it not let you on the internet on windows?
[12:14] <gif89apro> Falstuis: can you explain please?
[12:14] <whonicca> might have to reinstall if all im doing is looking for trouble
[12:14] <dyrne> gif89apro: im no expert the easiest way might be to use fuse to mount the /etc dir of the main machine and make a link to that file in the mounted dir. i dont know how to point to another hosts file path. i guess id use sshfs or somethine
[12:14] <stefg> a guy called osxdude has a windows-problem... hmm, could that be a case for #troll-alert ?
[12:14] <pietro10> You probably have a linmodem :-)
[12:15] <Jowi> no stefg it should be #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[12:15] <Rodel> how do i uninstall a package via terminal?
[12:15] <Falstius> whonicca: I think it is harder to resize, and there aren't windows drivers for it like there are for ext3fs (ofcourse I don't dual boot anymore).  It also got really screwed up when I had my harddrive partitioned strangely and I thought I'd lost all of my data.
[12:15] <osxdude> I had to reinstall windows (just a reconfig install) and for some reason there was no "pre-activation" period so I could never configure my wireless adapter.
[12:15] <PriceChild> osxdude, please go to ##windows for support
[12:15] <osxdude> ok, thanks!
[12:15] <gif89apro> dyrne: well, i thought there was a way to do something like #include \\server\path-to\hosts  but can't find any documentation like that
[12:15] <lancer> Okay Jowi  - I'ts at the "calculating size" stage of DVD creation - this is where it kind of halted before.
[12:16] <gilos> yea... finally got the 1680x1050 resolution working!
[12:16] <Corbeaux> I'm trying to reinstall GRUB on an HP-DL380 with Ubuntu Server (Feisty), I tried using the rescue option on th install CD but I'm probably entering the wrong options for root(hdx,y). Anyone has suggestions?
[12:16] <Falstius> gif89apro: you set up one machine on the network as an nis server.  The others as clients.  they can share almost any configuration file, but primarly it is used for hostnames, ssh keys, and logins.  You'll have to google for detailed instructions.  It isn't terribly complicated, but you should be very comfortable with the command line.
[12:16] <pietro10> Java has something called the DLJ in the restricted zone
[12:16] <Jowi> lancer, if it still fail, see if you get the same result on a different DVD-/+RW (re writable discs are heaven sent for weird burning problems)
[12:16] <gif89apro> Falstius: oh yes, i prefer command line to anything else... i'll look it up
[12:17] <pietro10> Corebeaux: In terminal type sudo install-grub (hda0)
[12:17] <pietro10> Replace (hda0) with (sda0) for SCSI
[12:17] <lancer> Jowi,  Y'think I should leave it a couple of hours? Like - maybe it's tarballing or soemthing befoire write and just takes a long time?
[12:18] <Corbeaux> pietro10, we tried that already i think, we also tried sda1
[12:18] <Jowi> lancer, honestly no idea.
[12:18] <lancer> Jowi, I've used these type disks before. Brand new. It's also not up to the "write" part yet.

[12:20] <irotas> can anyone recommend a simple standalone calendar application from the Ubuntu repository?
[12:20] <lancer> Other way around this problem: (I prefer command line where possible) - what would be the mkisofs options to create a dir of say /home/myhomedir WITHOUT including the full path (e.g. everything iside /home/myhomedir) but preserving all long filenames etc and maybe even permissions if possible?

[12:23] <whonicca> does anyone know how well reiserfs works with ntfs filesystems?
[12:23] <pietro10> startx
[12:23] <whonicca> can i copy things on my ntfs drive onto my reiserfs drive and vice versa with no problem?
[12:23] <Fawaz> nope
[12:23] <sx66_> when I want to edit my xorg.config nothing shows up?
[12:23] <pietro10> whonicca: from ntfs, yes
[12:24] <darwin81> How can I change the sound that plays when Ubuntu starts up?
[12:24] <pietro10> to ntfs, no - get ntfs-3g
[12:24] <tom_> bofh80: yea i thought it was just for .net stuff though, ill have a look thanks :P
[12:24] <lancer> New angle: How can I log into desktop from log in screen at startup, but as ROOT ?
[12:24] <Pelo> lancer, sudi -i I beleive, or maybe with gksu -i,  someting along those lines
[12:24] <pietro10> Fawaz: you forgot X11!
[12:24] <pietro10> You'll have to try again, I'm afraid :-(
[12:24] <bofh80> tom_, i'm not a developer myself, more a network admin, but my friend has a VB program with an Access database, and i was lookin for methods of doing the same thing :)
[12:24] <Falstius> whonicca: the filesystem is pretty irrelevant for that.  If you can r/w to each drive you can copy.  (install ntfs-3g for ntfs read write)
[12:24] <pietro10> !ntfs
[12:24] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[12:25] <phylogenesis> I ran the upgrade again, and it finished downloading the files, and started installing stuff, I left (said about an hour left) for 5 minutes, when I come back it's just sitting here on my desktop
[12:25] <stefg> lancer: you would have to override a couple of defaults... you don't to need to login to a root desktop, running nautilus with root priv's can do anything
[12:25] <noob> which is the best gtk direct connect (dc++  program) in ubuntu repos?
[12:25] <tom_> bofh80: oh right, well im just fed up of it, weve got such old hardware at work, access is so slow
[12:25] <leonpant> darwin81 go to System->Preferences->Sound and Tabs Sound.Change the login sound
[12:25] <bofh80> tom_, i'd assume you might have to change the access calls to SQL calls yourself tho . . .. . .. how many of them there are i'm not sure obviously :P ...... unless they'll still work with it in access format on linux
[12:25] <pietro10> phylogenesis: wait
[12:25] <Fawaz> pietro10: i typed all the command u gave me all show "command not found" any other cclues?
[12:25] <phylogenesis> the update manager is closed, and when I try to run it from the command line (nothing happens when I go System->Administration->Update Manager)
[12:26] <phylogenesis> I get Traceback (most recent call last):      File "/usr/bin/update-manager", line 32, in <module>
[12:26] <phylogenesis> from UpdateManager.UpdateManager import UpdateManager    ImportError: No module named UpdateManager.UpdateManager
[12:26] <pietro10> Fawaz: reinstall do you have the LiveCD?
[12:26] <tom_> bofh80: no ive migrated the data to mysql already and changed the calls
[12:26] <bofh80> tom_ yeah ,access sucks big time . . . oh cool . .. . .
[12:26] <pietro10> phylogenesis and Fawaz need to reinstall

[12:27] <pietro10> Then i don't know what to do Fawaz
[12:27] <Fawaz> pietro10: shouldn't be reinstalling my last option?
[12:27] <pietro10> irotas: you're welcome
[12:27] <tom_> bofh80:so i dunno, may end up having to rewrite it all in php lol

[12:28] <phylogenesis> pietro10:  reinstall 6.10?
[12:28] <pietro10> get 7.04 instead
[12:28] <bofh80> tom_, heheheh, well installing Mono is easy enough, the interface is nice i believe (i might have looked at it before, i can't remember) . . .
[12:28] <kalon33> phylogenesis: do you have enough space on your drive, and edgy-updates repository enabled ?
[12:28] <Pelo> osxdude, where do you want to move your /home folder to ? a diffrent partition ?
[12:28] <bofh80> tom_, it's availble in Add / Remvoe(i think), and Synaptic
[12:28] <osxdude> Pelo: I want to move it to a second HDD I have in my PC.
[12:29] <phylogenesis> I have enough hard drive space, I don't know about the edgy-updates repository
[12:29] <kalon33> phylogenesis: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[12:29] <zach> hey all, anyone know how to set it up so you can use a flash drive to kinda, 'extend' system memory (or is using it as swap the only way?)

[12:29] <ubotu> phylogenesis: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[12:29] <lancer> ubotu, I don't think you understand my question - I need to run DVD writer (nautilus one) as ROOT because I'm using it to access files under multiple user permissions. But nautilus-cdwriter (similar name) won't run because it fails to perform taks when run from standard user desktop even with sudo etc etc... and Ubuntu won't let me log in as ROOT from log in screen to get around it (Fedora never did this to me)
[12:30] <pietro10> ubotu is a bot he is not intelligent
[12:30] <tom_> bofh80: hmmm doesnt look promising, seems it can just run .net based vb projects, nothing in applications sucha s access or excel
[12:30] <Pelo> osxdude, boot up the live cd,  mount both hdd,  move the /user  folders the new hdd ( not /home)  then edit fstab to mount the second hdd to /home as a mount point
[12:30] <gratuit> I'm currently using bluefish to edit my html, and am looking for a script or program that will publish(i.e. upload any files changed since last time I uploaded) my webpage files, is there anything anyone recommends?(I'm using an ftp client now, but I want something automated that I can just type <command> and be done)
[12:30] <pietro10> just type gksudo in a terminal followed by the command
[12:30] <kalon33> phylogenesis: go in System, administration, software sources, updates and see if edgy-updates is enabled
[12:30] <tom_> gratuit: something like rsync?
[12:30] <tom_> maybe
[12:30] <lancer> It's still not working under gksu -i :-( :-( :-(
[12:31] <pietro10> if that doesn't work then type gksudo -s, hit enter, enter your password, then enter the command
[12:31] <lancer> This is SOOO stupid.
[12:31] <pietro10> !su
[12:31] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:31] <pietro10> You just need to do gksudo -s
[12:31] <lancer> pietro10, same problem with su
[12:31] <pietro10> OK
[12:31] <Pelo> lancer,  man gksu , see if that is the correct option,  I said I was just guessing
[12:31] <osxdude> Pelo: I use an NTFS drive that auto mounts because of ntfs-config. But anyway...   okay, I will do that now.
 like that but one that operates over ftp
[12:31] <pietro10> Right-click on the files to burn, and change the owner to you and/or enable write access
[12:32] <tom_> gratuit: im not sure, cant your coax rsync to cooperate with ftp?
[12:32] <lancer> su does not work, sudo does not work and neither does gksu
[12:32] <google_>
[12:32] <pietro10> So you need to manually change permissions

[12:45] <PiNE> i have been trying to change my default browser in gaim but i can't find where i change it.  i assume it is somewhere in the prefs section, does anyone know where it is?
[12:45] <cheeseboy>        in some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[12:45] <cheeseboy>        dmesg | tail  or so
[12:45] <cheeseboy> wth?
[12:46] <Pelo> wht1,  some ppl have had various issues after updating to the latest kernel,   you might need to reconfigure your video card,
[12:46] <bofh80> tom_, it does, but it won't take more than an hour to discern if your going to get anywhere
[12:46] <a> ok  i have a toshiba a 60-170  and i want to use kpowersave, is possible?
[12:46] <cheeseboy> how i mount cd drive??
[12:46] <jrib> PiNE: system -> preferences -> preferred applications doesn't work?
[12:46] <Pelo> a ask in #kubuntu
[12:46] <VeganChick001> i'm having problems splitting an ISO file...
[12:46] <wht1> pelo, how can i reconfigure it? also, when was the newest kernel released?
[12:46] <tom_> bofh80: yea, ill think about it more on monday morning i think :D
[12:46] <gonzaloaf_work> Pelo, I have myspell-es installed and still I cannot do a spellcheck in spanish
[12:47] <Pelo> cheeseboy,  cd drives should mount automaticaly
[12:47] <gonzaloaf_work> Pelo, nor in english
[12:47] <Pelo> wht1, about 4 days ago
[12:47] <wht1> pelo, i've kept up to date entirely and this resolution issue just happened right now
[12:47] <cheeseboy> it gave me error
[12:47] <wht1> pelo, ok well how can I reconfigure it?
[12:47] <PiNE> jrib, of course it is the system default, not gaim's.  i should have thought of that... but it probably would have taken days!  thanks.
[12:47] <Pelo> gonzaloaf_work, you probably need to enable it in the preferences,  you can also try asking in #openoffice.org
[12:47] <bofh80> erUSUL, i understand this, but are they not going to include any bug fixes at all ?
[12:47] <kalon33> phylogenesis: you could try  sudo apt-get -f -m dist-upgrade but it is risky... maybe you won't be able to use your install after...
[12:47] <gonzaloaf_work> Pelo, they dont talk
[12:47] <Pelo> wht1, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:48] <wht1> thank you
[12:48] <Pelo> gonzaloaf_work, not every channel is as busy as this one , you need some patience
[12:48] <Pelo> gonzaloaf_work, and you actrualy need to ask a question for them to answer
[12:48] <bofh80> erUSUL, i'm not screaming for updates to main programs, or new versions of this or that, just simple security and a few bug fixes . . . . .or do they simply move straight onto the next version, if so, when can i start updating beta style :)

[12:50] <phible> hi all! just a quick question: i've just found a bad bug in evolutino (segfault). I know exactly where it crashes (just debugged it) and want to report it. Is it better to report it at launchpad or directly at upstream?
[12:50] <Elfboy> can some one tell me that this means E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[12:50] <Elfboy> E: Unable to lock the download directory
[12:50] <ikonia> gonzaloaf_work: you need to install different dictionary languages and set the default language
[12:50] <Ropechoborra> Hiz
[12:50] <Pelo> cheeseboy, have you tried a regular cd ?
[12:51] <gonzaloaf_work> ikonia, done
[12:51] <ikonia> Elfboy: use sudo
[12:51] <cheeseboy> yes
[12:51] <erUSUL> phible: use launchpad
[12:51] <ikonia> gonzaloaf_work: then if it doesn't work log a bug
[12:51] <Elfboy> <--fells stuoid
[12:51] <cheeseboy> its mounted as read only

[12:51] <ikonia> gonzaloaf_work: what packages ??? you told me you where using opensofice
[12:51] <ikonia> cheeseboy: cdroms are read only
[12:51] <cheeseboy> cd-rw
[12:51] <tom_> bofh80: shooting people always sounds good at this time lol
[12:51] <Pelo> cheeseboy, I assume that you might have to change permission   try  sudo chmod 755 /path/
[12:51] <hagabaka> how can i search which package in the repository has */bin/ipsec?
[12:52] <erUSUL> phible: in the bug report there is a link you can press that says something like "also affects upstream" use that to
[12:52] <whta> ok Pelo, i've never had to run through any of this stuff and I've never even heard of what half of this is. should I continue anyway with the xorg reconfigure? it isn't automatically detecting anything, though I don't know if it should

[12:52] <Elfboy> ok whats is this Make sure you have the 'universe' component enabled
[12:52] <erUSUL> Thatguy: try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[12:52] <Pelo> whta, when in doubt just use the default provided
[12:52] <stefg> !beryl | eoy
[12:52] <ubotu> eoy: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[12:52] <gonzaloaf_work> ikonia, I mean.. what else pkgs do I need to install to do what I want?
[12:52] <Thatguy> 1 sec, I'll try
[12:53] <ikonia> gonzaloaf_work: whatever dictionary your using, for example ispell
[12:53] <Pelo> whta, and you might need to add the extra resolutions you need to the xorg.conf file
[12:53] <eth`> !eth` | bitlbee
[12:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about eth` - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:53] <eth`> !bitblee
[12:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bitblee - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:53] <cheeseboy> ugh
[12:53] <cheeseboy> wth
[12:53] <erUSUL> hagabaka: dpkg -S string
[12:53] <ikonia> eth`: why are you saying peoples names to the bot ?
[12:53] <hagabaka> erUSUL: that only searches installed package right?
[12:53] <cheeseboy> how i m,ount cdrom as read-write ???
[12:54] <cheeseboy> command
[12:54] <Ropechoborra> cheeseboy you cant
[12:54] <erUSUL> hagabaka: may be...
[12:54] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  it won't even let me remove them :-(  It says fix broken packages first!
[12:54] <cheeseboy> its a cd-rw
[12:54] <cheeseboy> its a cd-rw
[12:54] <cheeseboy> how i m,ount cdrom as read-write ???
[12:54] <erUSUL> !find /bin/ipsec
[12:54] <hagabaka> i want to search in packages in the repository
[12:54] <Thatguy> erUSUL, I am now confused while at this screen
[12:54] <ikonia> cheeseboy: you don'
[12:54] <ubotu> File /bin/ipsec found in openswan
[12:54] <hagabaka> not the filesystem
[12:54] <ikonia> cheeseboy: you need an application to burn to it
[12:54] <hagabaka> hmm
[12:54] <Ropechoborra> cheeseboy you can use a tool or a command to record it, but cannot mount it with a write permission
[12:54] <cheeseboy> it cabnt becausde it isnt mounted right
[12:55] <bofh80> erUSUL, heheh, oops, security updates where not ticked in synaptic......now i have new kernel to install lol . . .. .
[12:55] <Ropechoborra> Uhm
[12:55] <schilling> ikonia, is there a way to avoid this 10 second delay in phpsysinfo?
[12:55] <schilling> is this a normal bevaviour?
[12:55] <ikonia> schilling: re-write the php
[12:55] <erUSUL> Thatguy: confused?
[12:55] <Ropechoborra> cheeseboy did u try with sudo?
[12:55] <Elfboy> is there something that will help me get kdirc to install
[12:55] <cheeseboy> yes
[12:55] <schilling> ikonia, so this is not a bug it's a feature? ;)
[12:55] <cheeseboy> ITS NOT MOUNTED right
[12:55] <Thatguy> I'm  not sure what driver I need
[12:55] <ikonia> cheeseboy: you need to use a program to write to it, you don't mount it
[12:55] <ikonia> cheeseboy: don't shout
[12:55] <kalon33> phylogenesis: try to reinstall them, not remove
[12:56] <erUSUL> Thatguy: which card do you have?
[12:56] <ikonia> schilling: the 10 second delay is "info" gathering
[12:56] <cheeseboy> well ive said it 8 times and ustill dont understand
[12:56] <Thatguy> onboard graphics for the ABIT IP-95
[12:56] <cheeseboy> nothing can open the cd because its not mounted right
[12:56] <ikonia> cheeseboy: no - your don't understand
[12:56] <erUSUL> Thatguy: nvidia chipset?
[12:56] <ikonia> cheeseboy: youd didn't ask to open the the cdrom, you asked to mount it read and write
[12:56] <Thatguy> Maybe
[12:56] <cheeseboy> ubuntu says its nor m,ounted right
[12:57] <Thatguy> I think so, as google says
[12:57] <erUSUL> Thatguy: lspci | grep VGA
[12:57] <schilling> ikonia, ok. i c thanks. i though there is something like proftpd with this reverse dns lookup thing
[12:57] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  I can't do anything, it only gives me the option to mark for remove, mark for complete removal, and unmark
[12:57] <Thatguy> But I'm still in the menu thing, or is that a selection?
[12:57] <ikonia> cheeseboy: I don't know - its your box, but you've asked a different question. What do you actually want to do
[12:57] <phylogenesis> and when i choose remove, it automatically set python to mark as upgrade
[12:57] <cheeseboy> mount mty cd drive
[12:57] <phylogenesis> and I can't change it :-(
[12:57] <ikonia> schilling: reveser dns can be used by any ap
[12:57] <ikonia> cheeseboy: just put a cdrom in and it will mount it
[12:57] <cheeseboy> it wont
[12:57] <phylogenesis> it ignores unmark->python
[12:58] <cheeseboy> for 10th time
[12:58] <phylogenesis> well it ignores anything->python
[12:58] <erUSUL> Thatguy: here i read that it has via unicrhome ...
[12:58] <ikonia> cheeseboy: mount it manually
[12:58] <bofh80> cheeseboy, how many different CD's have you tried ?
[12:58] <cheeseboy> so i want manual command
[12:58] <PriceChild> cheeseboy, /mount /dev/hdc /media/cdrom
[12:58] <cheeseboy> wat ive been asking for
[12:58] <ikonia> cheeseboy: drop the attitude - you asked for it to be mounted read-write a minute ago, people are getting it wrong because your changing the question
[12:58] <dyrne> cheeseboy: mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt
[12:58] <kalon33> phylogenesis: try to install a package, the one you want, to see if it will recover automatically
[12:58] <PriceChild> dyrne, don't mount things on /mnt... bad practice
[12:58] <PriceChild> dyrne, /mnt/foo is ok though
[12:58] <dyrne> cheeseboy: be nice ikonia contributes alot of his time here :0
[12:58] <cheeseboy> my question was always the same u just missed a part or something
[12:59] <kalon33> (from synaptic)
[12:59] <bofh80> i'll bet he's been popping a DVD into his CDrom drive over and over
[12:59] <Thatguy> I'm sorry, I stupid, does that mean I select "via"?
[12:59] <ikonia> cheeseboy: I'm no going to argue - but your question was how do you mount it read-write, not how do you mount it because it won't mount
[12:59] <erUSUL> Thatguy: yes select via as graphic driver
[01:00] <Thatguy> I'll see if it works
[01:00] <Thatguy> 1 sec
[01:00] <bofh80> cheeseboy, have you tried a CD that you haven't melted cheese onto ?
[01:00] <VeganChick001> how do i modify the split command? if i put 100m after split, it tries to split that!
[01:00] <noob> I can't download more than one torrent, why?
[01:00] <noob> how do I change it?
[01:00] <PriceChild> bofh80, please drop the attitude
[01:00] <dyrne> VeganChick001: split -b 100m
[01:00] <erUSUL> Thatguy: you have to go through all the other questions to get a new xorg.conf
[01:00] <irielion_> ey when the system freezes hwo can i find out what went wrong, i know that i get a "bug soft lockup detected on cpu0",, but i need to know when, cuz in failsafe i have no problems
[01:01] <bofh80> PriceChild, i'm just askin . . . :P
[01:01] <cheeseboy> it wont mount
[01:01] <cheeseboy> saying read-write error
[01:01] <ikonia> irielion_: soft lockup is normally a chipset/cpu unsupporteed feature or a hardware error
[01:01] <ikonia> cheeseboy: you caan only mount it read only
[01:01] <cheeseboy> i put command u guys gave
[01:01] <cheeseboy> greg@gfundies:~/eggdrop$ sudo mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0
[01:01] <cheeseboy> mount: block device /dev/scd0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
[01:02] <ikonia> cheeseboy: ls -la /dev/cdrom please
[01:02] <cheeseboy> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2007-06-01 14:25 /dev/cdrom -> scd0
[01:02] <b0wlman> Anybody know a good .avi player which doesnt loose sound sync?
[01:02] <riddlebox> is there any way to stop ubuntu from asking for a password to connect to my wireless everytime I boot?
[01:02] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  well I think it's reinstalling stuff right now
[01:02] <ikonia> cheeseboy: is there a cdrom in the drive now ?
[01:02] <irielion_> ikonia: yes i understand that, but i need to know which module is causing this problem
[01:02] <cheeseboy> yes
[01:02] <dyrne> b0wlman: mplayer is the answer to every media question :)
[01:02] <cheeseboy> but its same no matter what
[01:02] <Jordan_U> b0wlman, VLC, Totem

[01:03] <ikonia> cheeseboy: you can't mount an empty cdrom drive
[01:03] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  I went through the list and chose reinstall (it gave me the option for the second one, then suddenly I could choose it for others, and it crashed the update manager thrice)

[01:08] <kbrooks> What is the simpolest backup regimen that I can do that protects my files?
[01:08] <bofh80> cheeseboy, have you tried a blank CD ?
[01:09] <cheeseboy> no
[01:09] <irielion_> ahgrrr you lousy people, nobody knows how to get that message
[01:09] <cheeseboy> i dont have blank one
[01:09] <stefg> !backup | kbrooks
[01:09] <ubotu> kbrooks: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[01:09] <bofh80> cheeseboy, when i had a similaly screwed Drive, it would note when a blank CD was put in, but nothing else
[01:09] <bofh80> cheeseboy, oh . . .. uhm ./
[01:09] <wastrel> "UBUNTO"
[01:09] <FFighter> Anyone ?
[01:09] <elYase> crimsun, Jordan_U , I suppose my option is headphone and mic, they are both at maximum, how do i test the mic, is there any application?
[01:09] <FFighter> I really need a hand here!
[01:09] <RoAkSoAx> coque, para ayuda en espanhol entra a #ubuntu-es
[01:10] <n2diy_> FFighter: can you ping your router?
[01:10] <wastrel> ping
[01:10] <bofh80> cheeseboy, done any updates to ubuntu yesterday?
[01:10] <Jordan_U> Fathefner, Try going to the GRUB menu when you boot and use "e" to edit and remove the "splash" and possibly "quiet" kernel parameters
[01:10] <lancer> I'm wanting to use mkisofs to dump student work onto a DVD-ROM (make iso image, burn later). What are all the options I should take into account? MAN page a bit overwhelming (and not too easy to understand what they mean)
[01:10] <crimsun> elYase: sure, there are a bevy of apps.  Sound Recorder, arecord, Audacity, etc.
[01:10] <nautilus> im back
[01:10] <Jordan_U> elYase, audacity
[01:10] <cheeseboy> no
[01:10] <FFighter> n2diy_, I don't have a router
[01:11] <Fathefner> Jordan_U, i just cant boot onto ubuntu
[01:11] <VeganChick001> will i be able to recompile files that i split in terminal, once i have the split files in OS X?
[01:11] <elYase> crimsun, Jordan_U , those are useful to try the mic?
[01:11] <bibbybob> anyone have any oscon discount codes of doom?
[01:11] <nickrud> kbrooks, sbackup is ok
[01:11] <n2diy_> FFighter: how are you connected to your sisters box? Crossover cable?
[01:11] <makuseru> hi, does anyone know where i can download folding@home for linux? the http://folding.stanford.edu/download.html site i guess got somthing mixed up, because under where it says linux, the downlaod is a .exe
[01:11] <FFighter> n2diy_, Here's the layout: I've got a usb modem (speedtouch usb) which connects to the internet, then a eth0 that directly connects to the XP machine
[01:11] <Fathefner> Jordan_U, it says some about unix
[01:11] <bofh80> cheeseboy, if you open the file browser, the DVD drive should be listed in the right hand list yes~?
[01:11] <Jordan_U> elYase, They are audio recording / editing programs
[01:11] <cheeseboy> yes
[01:11] <cheeseboy> but wen i click error
[01:12] <bofh80> cheeseboy, same readwrite error?
[01:12] <Jordan_U> Fathefner, Removing the splash screen should let you see any error messages you may be getting
[01:12] <cheeseboy> yes
[01:12] <FFighter> n2diy_, directly through ethernet wired network
[01:12] <n2diy_> FFighter: the eth0 cable needs to be a crossover cable for a direct connection.
[01:12] <Jordan_U> Fathefner, Can you be more specific?
[01:12] <riddlebox> is there a way to stop the system from asking my for a password to connect to the wireless connection everytime I boot?
[01:12] <haggard> makuseru: it works, despite the fact that it's an .exe
[01:12] <FFighter> n2diy_, It worked fine when I had XP installed
[01:12] <elYase> crimsun, Jordan_U , i tried sound recorder and the progress bar doesnt advances, it means no signal is at input no?
[01:12] <AD|Ubuntu> Gah!
[01:12] <FFighter> n2diy_, both LAN (windows network) and the internet connection sharing
[01:13] <AD|Ubuntu> Anyone wanna take a venture at helping me? ....again
[01:13] <bofh80> cheeseboy, normally i'd say the drive was toast, but since it works in ubuntu, i'm not sure . . . . . you haven't edited /etc/fstab at all ?
[01:13] <gbw> hi, how can i install mvn under feisty? apt-get cant find the package
[01:13] <bofh80> cheeseboy, works in windows rather
[01:13] <makuseru> haggard: what do i open it with
[01:13] <kalon33> phylogenesis: locked up, what do you mean with that ?
[01:13] <n2diy_> FFighter: Ok, can you ping your sisters box?
[01:13] <kalon33> *by that
[01:13] <cheeseboy> ya..
[01:13] <phylogenesis> the computer froze, Windows style
[01:13] <bofh80> cheeseboy, "ya...." you've edited /etc/fstab ?
[01:13] <FFighter> n2diy_, Nops, I can't... btw, I followed this tutorial: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370 but couldn't make it to work
[01:13] <FFighter> n2diy_, Maybe seeing my ifconfig output would help ?
[01:13] <Jordan_U> !anyone | AD|Ubuntu
[01:13] <ubotu> AD|Ubuntu: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:14] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  had to hold down the power button to shutdown, then reboot
[01:14] <kalon33> phylogenesis: oh, quite serious... could you reboot ubuntu ?
[01:14] <bofh80> cheeseboy, just now when people where trying to help....or like earlier or yesterday ? :)
[01:14] <Hillview> having a problem installing 7.0.4 (amd64) on one of my pc's.. the livecd boots and starts loading X, then seems to get to the ubuntu/gnome splash screen before it apparently panics and reboots instantly.. any ideas I can try?
[01:14] <n2diy_> FFighter: yes, pastepin the output of ifconfig.
[01:14] <FFighter> n2diy_, I guess that the problem is my modem... it creates a "nas0" interface and also ppp0
[01:14] <makuseru> haggard: what do i open it with?
[01:14] <premier_> hello, I have an ati radeon X1400 Mobility whatever... I've had to reconfigure the drivers several times, because it keeps reverting to mesa for apparently no reason
[01:14] <premier_> is there anyway to deal with this annoyance?
[01:14] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  yeah, that worried me, but I shutdown, rebooted, and here I am
[01:14] <erUSUL> Hillview: maybe some boot option can help
[01:14] <haggard> makuseru: the Linux F@H client is console only (no GUI screensaver). When you download it, you might have to make it executable. In the terminal, type "chmod +x<EMAIL_ADDRESS>(I forgot what the filename is).  Then, to run it, type<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[01:15] <erUSUL> !boot | Hillview
[01:15] <ubotu> Hillview: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[01:15] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  trying again...
[01:15] <Hillview> erUSUL, thanks :)
[01:15] <n2diy_> FFighter: ignore the modem for now.
[01:15] <lancer> Would this work: mkisofs -o ../backupwork.iso -V backup2007 * ...or would I loose thigns like permissions on files?

[01:15] <makuseru> haggard: why is the 64bit tar.gz?
[01:15] <FFighter> n2diy_, Ok, just a min
[01:15] <FFighter> n2diy_, and thanks for helping =)
[01:16] <Garold> if I want to install xinetd, do I have to uninstall inetd first?
[01:16] <topcat1027> can somebody help me, i'm having troubles installing joost through wine
[01:16] <kalon33> phylogenesis: Is it booting correcty now ?
[01:16] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  I'm on Linux right now
[01:16] <erUSUL> lancer: you will loose permisions unless you use rockridge (mkisofs -R) extensions iirc. i recomend to use tar and then burn the tar file(s)
[01:16] <n2diy_> FFighter: nada, I enjoy problem solving. :)
[01:16] <phylogenesis> it booted and that's what I'm using now (still Edgy Eft though :-) )
[01:16] <haggard> makuseru: just extract it first (either use the GUI program or type "tar -xvzf<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[01:16] <bofh80> topcat1027, heheheheheh. i got the same problem. i even tried vmware to no avail . . ..  i think cedega might work, but installing the cedega CVS is free, but complicated, i haven't tried that yet
[01:17] <AD|Ubuntu> Alright, I have a problem. Earlier today I tried dual booting Vista and Ubuntu with Vista installed first. I shrank the Vista volume and created a 20gig Ubuntu partition. I installed Ubuntu onto the partition, but when grub loads it doesnt have an option to boot the Vista partition. I know the Vista volume is still there because I can see it in ubuntu. Can anyone help? Ive looked on the support forums. The FAQs, and have searche
[01:17] <dyrne> topcat1027: run winecfg  to edit settings. other than that id suggest /join #wine
[01:17] <kalon33> phylogenesis: could you open a terminal and type sudo apt-get check ?
[01:17] <FFighter> n2diy_, I'm having problems pasting it to pastebin.com (internet errors from the pastebin app) do you have another site where I could paste it ?
[01:17] <topcat1027> dyrne, nobody is in the wine room
[01:17] <makuseru> haggard: im not a 64bit platform
[01:17] <FFighter> ops, I meant INTERNAL not INTERNET errors
[01:17] <topcat1027> or if they are they aren't talking
[01:17] <Fawa1> i just installed Ubuntu server and it booted with command line how can i start X server? when I type X it says X: cannot stat /etc/X11/X ( No such file or dirictory)
[01:17] <topcat1027> dyrne, what is winecfg to edit settings?
[01:17] <Jordan_U> AD|Ubuntu, Have you tried running: sudo update-grub
[01:17] <dyrne> winehq i mean
[01:17] <phylogenesis> I can, but I'm reinstalling all those packages, and so far it's working
[01:18] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  until it fails, I'm just gonna wait
[01:18] <riddlebox> Fawa1,  startx
[01:18] <n2diy_> FFighter: things are quite in #ubuntu-classroom
[01:18] <AD|Ubuntu> Im new to the whole linux thing Jordan so I dont know what that is.
[01:18] <kalon33> phylogenesis: okay
[01:18] <haggard> makuseru: then download the x86 version
[01:18] <AD|Ubuntu> Do I just open a terminal and type sude update-grub?
[01:18] <FFighter> n2diy_, Just got there
[01:18] <kalon33> phylogenesis: if it's reinstalling, we will wait the next step ^^
[01:18] <Jordan_U> AD|Ubuntu, That is a command to run in the terminal to tell GRUB to re-detect what operating systems are available to boot
[01:18] <lancer> erUSUL, I tried tare, but it stuck everything into a subdir of the folder it was pointed to. When I went into the directory to get around this I ran out of dids space - looks like it may have been trying to include the tar file itself. ( tar pzcvf tarball.tgz . )
[01:19] <AD|Ubuntu> alright ill try
[01:19] <makuseru> haggard: im saying why is the x86 version an exe and the x64 not
[01:19] <lancer> *disk
[01:19] <AD|Ubuntu> brb
[01:19] <nickrud> Fawa1, you need to install X first, along with a desktop.  sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg for the minimum
[01:19] <Ezep> agh, too much people!!!!!
[01:19] <haggard> makuseru: i don't know, but the x86 version does work just fine despite the fact it's .exe
[01:19] <erUSUL> lancer: check the -R switch for mkisofs then
[01:19] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  "changes applied"
[01:20] <nickrud> Fawa1, and twm for the smallest desktop
[01:20] <Thatguy> erUSUL, it didn't work, x still won't start
[01:20] <Thatguy> what was the reconfigure code again?
[01:20] <phylogenesis> holy crap, 615 updates available?!
[01:20] <Fathefner> Jordan_U, it wont boot to the ubuntu log on screen
[01:20] <elYase> crimsun, Jordan_U , when i speak i hear my own voice so the mic is workin, but any of the capturing programs are getting enything, what can it be?
[01:20] <lancer> "Generate SUSP and RR records using the Rock  Ridge  protocol"? what is that erUSUL ?
[01:20] <Fathefner> Jordan_U, can i just reinstall
[01:20] <Jordan_U> Thatguy, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[01:20] <Fawa1> riddlebox: I get "The program 'startx' is currently not installed to istall it type sudo apt-get install xinit.. when i try to install i get pachake not available but is refferfed by another package..
[01:20] <Fathefner> Jordan_U, it might help that its a duel boot

[01:20] <AD|Ubuntu> Jordan ill brb
[01:21] <AD|Ubuntu> Need to reboot
[01:21] <Fawa1> riddlebox: the server if offlien btw using the CD
[01:21] <pcapazzi> How do I include SIS SATA RAID drivers in the UBUNTU Install?
[01:21] <nixnoob> im having trouble adding a workspace switcher to my top panel... im using xubuntu
[01:21] <riddlebox> Fawa1, someone else suggested, sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg I beliece
[01:21] <riddlebox> believe
[01:21] <lancer> I think you are right erUSUL - burned direct CD is going to stuff everythign up with read only - right?
[01:21] <chombee_> Hi folks. Currently I have a desktop with an nvidia graphics card and their driver works very well for 3D game stuff. Do Intels drivers compare well to nvidias on ubuntu?
[01:21] <premier_> I just ran apt-get update, and I got a few warnings... the last one said: "E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead."
[01:22] <kalon33> phylogenesis: yes, don't forget you are upgrading :p
[01:22] <Jordan_U> elYase, They may be set to use the wrong input device, in Audacity the preference is in Edit -> Preferences -> IO
[01:22] <premier_> W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://security.ubuntu.com feisty-security/restricted Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/security.ubu               dists_feisty-security_restricted_binary-i386_Packages)

[01:22] <gemidjy> how can I tell dhcp not to overwrite my /etc/resolv.conf with its DNS's ?
[01:22] <nzvip> Everytime I start a program which steals full screen, X crashes.  Any way to force all programs to open in an window?
[01:22] <erUSUL> lancer: that's not the problem the problem are the user:group info and the rwxr-x--- estuff ... as i said -R can be used with mkisofs to preserve that info iirc
[01:22] <kalon33> phylogenesis: if update-manager works, it's better yes
[01:23] <Jordan_U> premier_, Did you edit your sources.list by hand or with a script?
[01:23] <Fawa1> riddlebox: show i connect the dsl cable to install the package?
[01:23] <premier_> Jordan_U: well, I used to edit it by hand, but since edgy, its been weird
[01:23] <kalon33> phylogenesis: it should be quite long
[01:23] <premier_> I mean fiesty
[01:23] <Jordan_U> premier_, Can you pastebin your sources.list ?
[01:24] <Thatguy> Jordan_U, cool, now how do I start the x server without restarting?
[01:24] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  Yeah, after the reinstallation I checked synaptic and it didn't list anything under broken, then I ran updates
[01:24] <Jordan_U> Thatguy, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[01:24] <phylogenesis> now I have to go to work
[01:24] <krasher> hey guys anyone can help me? i'm trying to clean up my menu... i'm trying to remove this herd of system icons and reinstall the good old gnome-control-center... but alacarte don't let me do this...
[01:24] <Rodel> what package do i need to play swf files in totem?
[01:24] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  hopefully it'll succeed while I'm gone
[01:24] <nzvip> O_o What's wrong with ctrl + alt + backspace?
[01:25] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  thanks for your help, I'll be back in about 10 hours
[01:25] <kalon33> phylogenesis: do you receive me in pv ?
[01:25] <kalon33> will let you my mail
[01:25] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  yes, and replied like 3 times
[01:25] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  albeit the first time took me a while
[01:25] <Jordan_U> Rodel, You can't play swf files in any normal media player, swf is flash, .flv is the video format that flash uses
[01:25] <NemesisD> hi guys im trying to get some data off a tape drive and im getting i/o error at the beginning of tape, error not recoverable, what should i do?
[01:25] <lancer> NOTE: multiple source directories have been specified and merged into the root
[01:25] <lancer> of the filesystem. Check your program arguments.  <= I'm assuming I've left of a flag to preserve recursive directories erUSUL ?
[01:25] <kalon33> if you aren't registered, the server censored you
[01:25] <Rodel> Jordan_U so do you know of a flash player?
[01:25] <premier_> Jordan_U: http://pastebin.ca/529524
[01:25] <phylogenesis> oh yes, I'm not registered
[01:26] <phylogenesis> it won't let me register, I don't know why
[01:26] <dyrne> NemesisD: might ask in #linux as well
[01:26] <phylogenesis> "/msg NickServ register ********
[01:26] <phylogenesis> " and it doesn't work
[01:26] <phylogenesis> when I try to log in
[01:26] <Fathefner> can i reinstall ubuntu
[01:26] <Jordan_U> Rodel, The regular flash player for Firefox, if you want to grab the .flv file from a youtube video or some sort it will be in /tmp while you are playing it
[01:26] <dyrne> Fathefner: yes but what is the problem?
[01:26] <Thatguy> Jordan_U, it flashs a couple times then gives me the same "Failed to start" message. What am I doing wrong? Is there a way to have EVERYTHING autoconfigured like when its gets first installed?
[01:27] <Rodel> /ns register 154546
[01:27] <Rodel> hmmm
[01:27] <Rodel> sily things
[01:27] <b0wlman> r
[01:27] <kalon33> phylogenesis: "on login, you should type /msg NickServ IDENTIFY *******"
[01:27] <Jordan_U> Thatguy, try running the reconfigure command again but choose "vesa" as the driver
[01:27] <phylogenesis> received
[01:27] <wastrel> phylogenesis eh.
[01:27] <Thatguy> k, 1 sec
[01:27] <phylogenesis> right, it just tells me that phylogenesis is not registered
[01:27] <pcapazzi> Can someone help me with loading modules?
[01:27] <wastrel> so you can register it?
[01:28] <wastrel> also, "ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny"
[01:28] <Fathefner> dyrne, just problem i can get to the log on screen but i cant do anything in the logon screen i moves so slow i just want to reinstall i have nothing on this ubuntu so im not going to lose anything
[01:28] <phylogenesis> well, now it worked
[01:28] <Boshi> whats the diffrence between OSS Mixer And the Alsa Mixer?
[01:28] <lockd> is there a way to set Qemu to use a CD even if it can't find one in the drive currently?
[01:28] <Jordan_U> pcapazzi, sudo modprobe <module name>
[01:28] <wastrel> Boshi:  oss is open sound system and is a different sound framework than alsa
[01:29] <erUSUL> Boshi: OSS is a compatibility layer ontop alsa
[01:29] <lancer> What's the difference between tar.gz and .tgz ?
[01:29] <kalon33> phylogenesis: so you are now registerad ?
[01:29] <Boshi> wastrel: which one is better?
[01:29] <kalon33> *red
[01:29] <wastrel> Boshi:  well, since ubuntu uses alsa - alsamixer :]
[01:29] <Boshi> erUSUL: aha i see
[01:29] <erUSUL> lancer: none only the choosed suffix
[01:29] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  yes, and the update failed "failed to write commit log" but I have to go or I'll be late for work
[01:29] <phylogenesis> kalon33:  see you later
[01:29] <kalon33> okay
[01:29] <premier_> lancer: I think one is just a short form of the other... I'd say use .tar.gz if you have the choice
[01:30] <dyrne> Fathefner: try maybe alt-ctrl-f2 then login then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop  then sudo apt-get remove -purge xserver-xorg then sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop.  but that seems a little drastic
[01:30] <phylogenesis> (gone)
[01:30] <Boshi> wastrel: i changed mine to Oss beacuse i couldnt start Sauerbraten
[01:30] <lockd> but both OSS and ALSA can handle each other, is that true?
[01:30] <dyrne> Fathefner: or just boot from cd and reinstall
[01:30] <premier_> Jordan_U: are you going to make a suggestion for my sources list?
[01:30] <kalon33> phylogenesis: have a nice day, it's sleeping time for me !
[01:31] <Jordan_U> Boshi, Instead use ALSA and a program called aoss to get oss applications working ( aoss <application name> )
[01:31] <pcapazzi> thank you
[01:31] <Fathefner> dyrne, will it install over the previous ubuntu install
[01:31] <pcapazzi> jordan_u thank you
[01:31] <Frederick> folks how can I get opengl for java in ubuntu?
[01:31] <dyrne> Fathefner: are you dual booting with xp or another os?
[01:31] <Thatguy> Jordan_U, well... it worked but now when I log in I get a unusable white screen. should I have mentioned that I had Beryl installed?
[01:31] <dyrne> Fathefner: or just ubuntu
[01:32] <Fathefner> dyrne, duel boot with xp
[01:32] <Boshi> Jordan_U: hmm oki what does it do?
[01:32] <kalon33> see you all !
[01:32] <Thatguy> byez
[01:32] <Thatguy> lol
[01:32] <dyrne> Fathefner: a well then if you do the cd reinstal be careful to select the ubuntu partition to install to
[01:32] <Jordan_U> premier_, Other than line 39 and 41 being the same is looks fine, one of the repos might have just been temporarily down
[01:32] <Fathefner> ok
[01:32] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  i have two soundcards in my computer one built in and one exterior
[01:33] <Jordan_U> Thatguy, Did you install Beryl with XGL?
[01:33] <Thatguy> 1 sec
[01:33] <premier_> Jordan_U: well, I keep getting broken downloads and warnings from apt-get... synaptic just waits and waits for downloads that never come
[01:33] <Jordan_U> Boshi, It provides a compatibility layer so that applications built for OSS can work with alsa
[01:34] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  wow nice thats good! ;) thank you man!
[01:34] <elYase> somebody help me please!!!!!
[01:34] <premier_> !ask
[01:34] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:34] <premier_> !help
[01:34] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[01:34] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  one more thing sorry for being a pain in the ass hehe
[01:34] <pyrogan> !viewports
[01:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about viewports - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:35] <Jordan_U> premier_, Do you need the repo from cl.naist.jp ? since I have never heard of it I don't know if it is reliable or not
[01:35] <Boshi> Jordan_U: but why do i get bad sound when i raise the volume on vlc?

[01:35] <joseph> Will someone please help me I need a program to check for errors for ubuntu I changed my network setting and now program open super slow
[01:35] <Thatguy> Jordan_U, I did this EXACTLY http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu_Feisty_with_nVidia
[01:35] <elYase> why does any program gets input from my microphone, soundrecorder audacity, why, i am sure it is working cause i hear my self
[01:36] <tomex> Will K3b run under Ubuntu?
[01:36] <premier_> Jordan_U: maybe not... trying to remember what that is... it might be CJK language support
[01:36] <premier_> tomex: of course it will
[01:36] <erUSUL> tomex: sure
[01:36] <Boshi> tomex:  yes
[01:36] <lameran> hi
[01:37] <tomex> thanx
[01:37] <lameran> anyone konlodegeable of wireless?
[01:37] <lameran> thanks
[01:37] <lameran> need help ASAP
[01:37] <premier_> tomex: add yourself to the cd group (cdrom or something)
[01:37] <lameran> trying to set it as AP
[01:37] <elYase> why does any program gets input from my microphone, soundrecorder audacity, why, i am sure it is working cause i hear my self
[01:37] <premier_> tomex: otherwise, it will give you all sorts of trouble
[01:37] <dyrne> joseph: you edited /etc/hosts file? make sure <IP_ADDRESS> localhost whateverisyourhostname   is in there
[01:37] <Boshi> tomex  or you can choose Gnomebaker
[01:37] <Jordan_U> Boshi, You are probably reaching the limit where quieter sounds are already as loud as they can go so they are the same level as louder sounds, this creates very bad sounding distortion, try raising the system volume more instead
[01:37] <spheard> how do you call an american mobile from the uk "1-xxx-xxxblah"
[01:38] <joseph> dyrne how do I go about doing that?
[01:38] <Boshi> Jordan_U: i have done that to the max
[01:38] <dyrne> joseph: gksu gedit /etc/hosts
[01:38] <Jordan_U> !anyone | lameran
[01:38] <ubotu> lameran: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:38] <dyrne> joseph: let me know what the <IP_ADDRESS> line says
[01:38] <PreZLaptop> *sigh* is there an EASY way to get an ubuntu kernel compile WITH restricted drivers?
[01:38] <PreZLaptop> the kernel compile part is easy enough
[01:39] <Jordan_U> Boshi, check that all channels are up in alsamixer ( run "alsamixer" from the terminal )
[01:39] <PreZLaptop> the restricted drivers don't compile so well with the instructions I found online
[01:39] <lameran> PreZLaptop: asx Shuttleworth
[01:39] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  oki
[01:39] <joseph> dyrne its not in there what should I do?
[01:39] <lameran> ok my problem is about setting AP with linxu
[01:39] <Jordan_U> PreZLaptop, Why do you need to compile a custom kernel?
[01:39] <dyrne> joseph: add it. check to see what your hostname is first by typing 'hostname' in the terminal
[01:39] <dyrne> joseph: thats you problem
[01:39] <srbaker> what's the difference between abiword and abiword-gnome ?
[01:40] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  oki it came up
[01:40] <PreZLaptop> Jordan_U, a kernel patch that is not included in the default kernel
[01:40] <joseph> dyrne ok what do I type
[01:40] <dyrne> srbaker: anything -gnome is bad :)
[01:40] <PreZLaptop> I have compiled many a kernel before, the kernel itself is not the problem
[01:40] <PreZLaptop> its the restricted drivers
[01:40] <dyrne> joseph: <IP_ADDRESS>     localhost whateverhostname
[01:41] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  the Master Volume is set to 100
[01:41] <srbaker> dyrne: why?
[01:41] <PreZLaptop> and the instructions I found online for doing it are unclear at best
[01:41] <PreZLaptop> (just plain wrong at worst)
[01:41] <joseph> dyrne yes I did that I need to know what do I add to the gedit file
[01:41] <marisa> hi i have a intel centrino core2duo laptop with ubuntu installed and the sound doesnt works anyone knows how can i solve it?
[01:42] <dyrne> srbaker: its complicated and i dont feel like rationalizing my prejudices. just my opinion im very often wrong :)
[01:42] <lameran> nobody got experiecne with AP in lnuc?
[01:42] <Jordan_U> marisa, when you run "alsamixer" in a terminal do you see anything?
[01:42] <erUSUL> !sound | marisa
[01:42] <ubotu> marisa: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[01:42] <dyrne> joseph: that line you need to put the 127 line in hosts so it associates localhost and your hostname with the loopback
[01:44] <marisa> Jordan_U, if i run alsamixer on a terminal i see a black screen but i dont know what it is
[01:44] <krasher> hey guys anyone can help me? i'm trying to clean up my menu... i'm trying to remove this herd of system icons and reinstall the good old gnome-control-center... but alacarte don't let me do this...
[01:44] <Jordan_U> lameran, If you want to set up an access point try firestarter
[01:45] <joseph> dyrne the file looks like this what should it look like?
[01:45] <joseph> # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
[01:45] <joseph> ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
[01:45] <joseph> fe00::0 ip6-localnet

[01:46] <uyohm> Hi anyone here using the nvidiafb framebuffer ? (for console viewing of stuff like mame & mplayer ... )
[01:46] <joseph> dyrne did you get that?
[01:46] <dyrne> joseph: im going to pastebin my hosts file on a bsd box to give you an idea
[01:47] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  are you there?
[01:47] <krasher> anyone can tell me why my tty screens shows invalid characters when i use ^, ~ or other signlas?
[01:48] <Jordan_U> Boshi, Yes
[01:48] <joseph> dyrne link?
[01:48] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  im in but i dont know what i should change
[01:48] <lameran> WTF??!! I am trying to install irssi
[01:48] <lameran> and says NO RESULST
[01:48] <Jordan_U> Boshi, Just raise everything, the only thing it can hurt is your ears :)
[01:49] <premier_> Hello, when I installed ubuntu (6 months ago) I set acpi to off (because I had to) but now I don't... however, ubuntu keeps resetting my grub menu.lst to turn off acpi
[01:49] <homanj> lameran: sudo apt-get install irssi
[01:49] <crouic6> Hello, is there somebody who can help me with my printer under feisty ?
[01:49] <homanj> how do i see how much free disk space i have via the command line?
[01:49] <crouic6> z600 drive
[01:49] <premier_> homanj: df -h
[01:49] <dyrne> joseph: ah just look here http://www.lockergnome.com/nexus/linux/2004/10/20/using-the-etchosts-file/
[01:49] <Jordan_U> premier_, You need to remove the noacpi option from the automagic kernel config section in your /boot/grub/menu.list
[01:50] <Rprp>   ChanServ Chinatown Gfgf Noxic^bssy Quis|afk Rprp steefke Sylvestre Westplaya
[01:50] <crouic6> hello
[01:50] <premier_> Jordan_U: I know that, its just, it does it without telling me, then I have to go and fix it... but only after I've booted it into noacpi mode
[01:50] <crouic6> I have a little problem with my z600 drive under feisty
[01:50] <premier_> Jordan_U: I want it to stop messing with my head
[01:51] <dyrne> joseph: its very straight forward just do two lines <IP_ADDRESS> localhost then another <IP_ADDRESS> hostname
[01:51] <Jordan_U> premier_, Can you post your /boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[01:51] <Jordan_U> premier_, *pastebin your menu.lst*
[01:53] <Damian> Hey Guys
[01:53] <Jordan_U> !hi | Damian
[01:53] <ubotu> Damian: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:53] <premier_> http://pastebin.ca/529576
[01:53] <Damian> anyone here on a ibm thinkpad?
[01:53] <premier_> Jordan_U: http://pastebin.ca/529576
[01:54] <premier_> Damian: no, but maybe we can help you anyway... whats up?
[01:55] <Damian> well i ran the live cd the new one ver 7.04 and its recognizing my wireless card as a physical connection card
[01:55] <wastrel> that's normal for thinkpad
[01:55] <wastrel> no big deal
[01:55] <Jordan_U> premier_, look at line 88, that is where Ubuntu looks for what kernel parameters should be added when the menu.lst is updated
[01:55] <Breetai> Hi, Feisty Fawn hangs during startup, after "Activating swapfile [OK] " Anyone have any idea why? I am not even sure where to be looking to see what is calling mountall.sh in the init startup. Any help would be appreciated.
[01:55] <Damian> wastrel how do i change that?
[01:56] <wastrel> eth1      IEEE 802.11b
[01:56] <wastrel> Damian:  you don't, it will work just fine.
[01:56] <wastrel> that's mine above
[01:56] <MaCyBerZita> faq
[01:56] <Damian> wastrel: then how do i enter the ssid and wep code?
[01:56] <MaCyBerZita> hi rum
[01:57] <wastrel> Damian:  oh i dunno, are you using network-manager?  i don't use it because it is annoying.  i just configure my card in /etc/network/interfaces
[01:57] <Jordan_U> Damian, network-manager or network-admin ( System -> Administration -> Networking )
[01:58] <Volsy> Hi, I'm having some trouble installing Ubuntu. Could someone find a minute to help me?
[01:58] <Jordan_U> !ask | Volsy
[01:58] <ubotu> Volsy: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:58] <lancer> Volsy - what's happening?
[01:58] <Damian> Jordan_U i'll try it again once it installs
[01:58] <Volsy> Well, see, I ran the installer and ran GParted to create a new partition
[01:59] <AD|Ubuntu> Jordan
[01:59] <Volsy> My hard drive is a 200gb hard drive with all of it allotted on one primary NTFS partition
[01:59] <AD|Ubuntu> I tried updating grub but, it didnt change anything
[01:59] <Jordan_U> Damian, Is it recognised as a wireless card in the network-manager applet at the top right of the screen?
[01:59] <lancer> Volsy, isn't there an option on the intaller to "use rest of disk"?
[02:00] <Volsy> There is no "rest of disk" because all of it is already allotted.
[02:00] <Volsy> Unless I'm misunderstanding you, which is likely.
[02:00] <CaptainMorgan> is there an official docs for setting up the 7.04 server?
[02:00] <Jordan_U> Volsy, The installer let's you resize your NTFS partition to make room for Ubuntu
[02:00] <Cuog> the option to use the rest of the disk will resize the NTFS partition and use the remaining space for the install
[02:00] <lancer> Volsy, in that case, use Defrag windows or whatever you have there ant then use Partition Magic (recommended) or similar to downsize that partition to make room
[02:01] <Damian> Jordan_U give me a minute here its still installing onto my HD now
[02:01] <Jordan_U> lancer, Gparted does everything that partition magic does
[02:01] <Volsy> Okay, I've tried Partition Magic. I try to use it, and it says it needs to reboot to take effect so it can create the partition or whatever, and when my PC reboots, it doesn't do anything.
[02:01] <Cuog> Does anyone know how to setup dual monitors in 7.04 that aren't just a duplicate?
[02:01] <lancer> Jordan_U, I know but I prefer PM when shuffling around Windows Pertitions.
[02:01] <Jordan_U> Damian, You can check from the LiveCD while it's installing
[02:01] <firefly2442> When I first installed Feisty, it automatically found my NTFS drive and could mount it, but not anymore, could this be a kernel update issue?
[02:01] <Damian> Jordan_U: when i was running the livecd it did
[02:02] <lancer> Jordan_U, what gparted doesn;'t do is repair links, registry etc when partiotions are transposed.
[02:03] <Jordan_U> lancer, As long as you keep windows as the first partition there should be no problem though right *disclamer* I am not a windows user :)
[02:03] <AD|Ubuntu> Can anyone help me to configure grub so it recognizes the Vista partion on my HD?
[02:04] <Jordan_U> AD|Ubuntu, I can try... Can you pastbin your /boot/grub/menu.list ?
[02:04] <lancer> Me neither Jordan_U although I got PM to resize some school computers and that's what stuck ou for me from the experience. The last stage of what it does is to go through registy etc and rename any links which may lead to non existing partitions etc after the work. I use PM if playing with windows, parted if playing with Linux
[02:05] <Death_Sargent> my "ondemand" powermode is fundamentally broken
[02:05] <Death_Sargent> how can I edit it?
[02:05] <lockd> I used windows on a completely separate disk so as to let qemu run on it - that is not an option for most people
[02:05] <riddlebox> is there a way to make network-manager not need the keyring to connect to my wireless network?
[02:05] <lockd> riddlebox: yes, but it still takes the keyring
[02:06] <lockd> riddlebox: is the keyring the same as your password?
[02:06] <Death_Sargent> hello
[02:06] <Jordan_U> AD|Ubuntu, And is Windows on the first partition of the same disk that Ubuntu is on, correct?
[02:06] <Jordan_U> !hi | Death_Sargent
[02:06] <riddlebox> lockd, it is the same as my login yet
[02:06] <riddlebox> yes
[02:06] <ubotu> Death_Sargent: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:06] <AD|Ubuntu> yes
[02:06] <lockd> riddlebox: good, then you should be able to use pam-keyring.. searching for the package
[02:06] <Death_Sargent> does anyone know how to edit the powermodes of gnome-power-manager
[02:06] <Boshi> Jordan_U: hehe oki
[02:06] <hydan> hey guys i'm looking for the beeping noise so i can activate it for my xchat client
[02:06] <lockd> riddlebox: sudo apt-get install libpam-keyring
[02:07] <pcapazzi> Hello... UBUNTU recognizes my SATA RAID SIL hardware and the two drives... But it doesn't recognize the existing partition from OpenSUSE... in OpenSUSE the RAID is shown in /dev/mapper/ as sil_ahafadaadiab (part1, part2, part3 etc)...
[02:07] <hydan> where are sounds like that in ubuntu?
[02:07] <pcapazzi> anybody familiar with that?
[02:07] <bruenig> !caps | pcapazzi
[02:07] <ubotu> pcapazzi: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[02:07] <Damian> Jordan_U: ok it's installed where do i go to enter the ssid and wep code?
[02:07] <alakalaka99> In Wubi, does anyone know how to resize the virtual drives, all the things i have done have failed.
[02:07] <lockd> riddlebox: i will pastebin the config or would you rather me message it? only about 3 lines
[02:07] <riddlebox> lockd, I can msg you
[02:07] <Azhi_Dahaka> guys, the terminal app of ubuntu is nice but i'm looking for something more customizable and with tabs
[02:08] <Azhi_Dahaka> any recommendation?
[02:08] <PriceChild> Azhi_Dahaka, the ubuntu terminal has tabs?
[02:08] <LjL> Azhi_Dahaka: the terminal app in Ubuntu *has* tabs.
[02:08] <Jordan_U> Damian, Just connect to the network and it will ask for the password
[02:08] <tomex> what do you recommend for iPod management under Ubuntu?
[02:08] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: what do you want to customize?
[02:08] <PriceChild> tomex, amarok
[02:08] <jrib> !ipod > tomex (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:08] <Jordan_U> !ipod | tomer
[02:08] <ubotu> tomer: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod
[02:08] <bruenig> xterm is pretty customizable
[02:08] <Azhi_Dahaka> it has tabs?
[02:08] <PriceChild> Azhi_Dahaka, right click > create new tab
[02:08] <Azhi_Dahaka> color me surprised!
[02:08] <LjL> Azhi_Dahaka: File / New tab, yes. (or something very similar - i'm on KDE)
[02:09] <bruenig> Azhi_Dahaka, ctrl + shift + t I think is the keyboard shortcut, at least on xfce
[02:09] <Azhi_Dahaka> hehehe... all day opening new instances!
[02:09] <jrib> bruenig: correct
[02:09] <alakalaka99> so anyone know how to make Wubi virtual drives larger?
[02:09] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: screen  is even better...
[02:09] <Azhi_Dahaka> screen is nice, but i'm looking for one that my family can use without feeling intimidated
[02:09] <Boshi> Jordan_U: nope still gets crappy when i raise thw voulme in vlc
[02:10] <LjL> jrib: and running bash from vi buffers is better yet, sure
[02:10] <Damian> Jordan_U: i need to specify my ssid though
[02:10] <Jordan_U> Damian, It's hidden?
[02:10] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: why have your family use the terminal at all if they aren't comfortable
[02:10] <Azhi_Dahaka> it will happen... you know linux
[02:10] <Damian> Jordan_U i dont see anywehre to type it in in properties
[02:11] <Azhi_Dahaka> it doesn't matter what you do, sometime you will need the terminal
[02:12] <Damian> Jordan_U: the light that usually lights up to show that the wireless card is enabled isnt even on
[02:12] <Jordan_U> Damian, Is your wireless ssid hidden?
[02:12] <Damian> yes
[02:12] <CaptainMorgan> if an isp is blocking a port... say 25? can I use any other port that I specify for the mail services?
[02:13] <Damian> Jordan_U yes
[02:13] <Jordan_U> Damian, Ok, try wifi-radar then, or setting up your /etc/networking/interfaces manually
[02:13] <hydan> where are the default sound files in ubuntu?
[02:14] <Damian> where is wifi-radar?
[02:14] <jrib> hydan: why?
[02:14] <Damian> Jordan_U where is wifi-radar?
[02:14] <Boshi> Jordan_U: nope still gets crappy when i raise thw voulme in vlc
[02:14] <Frederick> isnt vim7 disponible in reps
[02:14] <Jordan_U> Damian, sudo apt-get install wifi-radar ( or install it through synaptic )
[02:14] <jrib> Frederick: it is
[02:14] <hydan> jrib: i'm wanting to have sound notifications in x-chat.
[02:14] <jrib> hydan: /usr/share/sounds/ has a few
[02:14] <lancer> how do I extract a single file from a tar.gz?
[02:14] <Azhi_Dahaka> how can i update firefox in dapper? tried apt-get but it's stuck on 1.5
[02:14] <Jordan_U> Boshi, I don't know what to do then
[02:15] <reddysetgo> what is the difference between ubuntu and kubuntu?
[02:15] <jrib> lancer: double click on it and choose the file you want, then press extract
[02:15] <Azhi_Dahaka> kde
[02:15] <Frederick> jrib: under wich name?
[02:15] <silvernode> azhi:ya it does that
[02:15] <jrib> Frederick: vim-full is probably what you want
[02:15] <Jordan_U> lancer, From GUI or command line?
[02:15] <dal> hello, i'm in need of desperate help.  i just can NOT get my wireless card to work on ubuntu
[02:15] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  hmm oki thanks anyway

[02:15] <Jordan_U> dal, What chipset?
[02:15] <pmcdonnell> Hi - for a celeron EM64T processor, would I use a i386 or amd64 install image?
[02:15] <Jordan_U> Boshi, Yes, but VLC already uses alsa
[02:15] <jrib> reddysetgo: ubuntu has gnome by default and kubuntu has kde by default, but both versions use the same repositories
[02:16] <Frederick> jrib: thanks!
[02:16] <dal> Jordan_U,   something called NETGEAR
[02:16] <Icehawk78> pmcdonnel - amd64
[02:16] <Fawa1> i have just installed the package xserver-xorg when i try to start xserver by typing X i get could not open default font'fixed'
[02:16] <reddysetgo> jrib: hello again
[02:16] <silvernode> azhi:just get ubuntu feisty

[02:16] <pmcdonnell> Icehawk78, thanks
[02:16] <Azhi_Dahaka> no
[02:16] <Azhi_Dahaka> my audio card doesn't work on feisty
[02:16] <lancer> Jordan_U, command line please - really big tar.gz that tends to seize up the GUI
[02:16] <Jordan_U> dal, Can you be more specific, what model, USB or PCI, etc?
[02:16] <jrib> reddysetgo: hi
[02:16] <reddysetgo> jrib: can the software inter change?
[02:16] <dal> Jordan_U,  PCI
[02:17] <Azhi_Dahaka> i spent all day to find out that there's a bug with the kernel of feisty
[02:17] <jrib> reddysetgo: yes, you can use the same programs regardless of your environment
[02:17] <Jordan_U> dal, can you pastebin the output of "lspci" ?
[02:17] <vox754> pmcdonnell, NO i386
[02:17] <devin__> anyone here updated from .15 to .16?
[02:17] <dal> type that into terminal, Jordan_U ?
[02:17] <devin__> because it just screwed up my laptop
[02:17] <Fawa1> anyone please?
[02:17] <Jordan_U> dal, Yes
[02:17] <pmcdonnell> vox754, and now I'm confused.
[02:17] <reddysetgo> jrib: ok thank:) On a side note, this kubuntu feels kinda like knoppix
[02:17] <AD|Ubuntu> Alright. Im here for good now.
[02:17] <jrib> reddysetgo: well knoppix uses kde as well
[02:17] <Frederick> jrib: why tab completition does not work on it?
[02:18] <AD|Ubuntu> Now, how do I edit the grub confi

[02:18] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  i know but Sauerbraten
[02:18] <dal> Jordan_U, give me a minute please
[02:18] <vox754> pmcdonnell, amd64 won't work with certain things, i386 is better for desktop users
[02:18] <jrib> Frederick: on what?
[02:18] <Frederick> I mean I want to open a file and the path isnt using atuto completation
[02:18] <devin__> anyone have problems with .16 updating?
[02:18] <jrib> Frederick: in vim?  have you installed vim-full?
[02:18] <devin__> i upgraded and when it restarted it was hosed
[02:18] <Fawa1> i get " could not open default font fixed'   when i try starting X server .. anyone might know how could i fix this?
[02:19] <devin__> i'm scared to update my other systems
[02:19] <pmcdonnell> vox754, it would be for a server
[02:19] <reddysetgo> jrib: i have ubuntu and kubuntu and xp on this drive should i dare to install the other one?
[02:19] <jrib> reddysetgo: if you want to try something new, I say go for it
[02:19] <Icehawk78> I have a scripting question for anyone who knows how to write them. I'm trying to rename photos from a digital camera through the command line (it's on a server and I've got no UI ). I'd like to just rename everything to DCIM_0001.jpg, DCIM_0002.jpg, etc.
[02:19] <vox754> pmcdonnell, then you are good
[02:19] <jrib> Icehawk78: use "rename"
[02:20] <reddysetgo> jrib: how many osses will grub support?
[02:20] <pmcdonnell> vox754, ok, thanks
[02:20] <jrib> reddysetgo: I don't know
[02:20] <devin__> i have a problem, all my devices don't work, and by devices i mean even the usb ports are turned off
[02:20] <mhaque> anyone really good at using samba?
[02:20] <abasinisvacant> Jordan_U,  you still here?
[02:20] <jrib> !anyone | mhaque
[02:20] <ubotu> mhaque: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[02:20] <Jordan_U> reddysetgo, You can have KDE and gnome installed on the same installation of Ubuntu, no need to have Ubuntu and Kubuntu on two separate partitions
[02:20] <jrib> !samba > mhaque (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:20] <Jordan_U> abasinisvacant, no
[02:20] <vox754> pmcdonnell, but don't come later asking for help to play games and stuff
[02:20] <reddysetgo> jrib: lol i am going to down load edubuntu and c lmao
[02:20] <Jordan_U> abasinisvacant, :)
[02:20] <abasinisvacant> Jordan_U,  ok, where may i post the output?
[02:20] <jrib> reddysetgo: see what Jordan_U said, it applies to edubuntu as well
[02:20] <abasinisvacant> pm?
[02:20] <pmcdonnell> vox754, I don't even play games on my desktop ;-)
[02:20] <Jordan_U> !paste | abasinisvacant
[02:21] <ubotu> abasinisvacant: 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)
[02:21] <reddysetgo> ok
[02:21] <Frederick> jrib: yep vim full
[02:21] <abasinisvacant> Jordan_U, can i just PM?
[02:21] <Semper> my nigga.
[02:21] <Jordan_U> abasinisvacant, I don't think so, I don't think freenode allows large amounts of text to be sent at once, even in a PM
[02:21] <Semper> O.o
[02:21] <jrib> Frederick: how are you trying to tab complete?
[02:22] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  i know but Sauerbraten
[02:22] <LjL> Semper: if you have an Ubuntu support question, ask. if you just want to throw in random borderline offensive sentences, find other places.
[02:22] <abasinisvacant> Jordan_U, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23669/
[02:22] <hydan> thanks jrib :)
[02:22] <mhaque> how do you setup samba as a domain control?
[02:22] <Jordan_U> Boshi, Yes, for Sauerbraten use aoss
[02:22] <devin__> i need some help having ubuntu recognize the system timer.
[02:22] <benoit> hi
[02:22] <Semper> @LjL: i was just messing around
[02:22] <Semper> blah.
[02:23] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  aha oki
[02:23] <LjL> Semper: well, this is not the right channel for messing around. we're busy enough with ubuntu support.
[02:23] <benoit> i've got a problem with dual screen with X300 and voodoo3, on feisty
[02:23] <benoit> can someone help me?
[02:23] <Semper> @LjL: alright. sorry
[02:23] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  i have it on ALsa Mixer now and Sauerbraten worked
[02:23] <breadstic> hi guys, i just tried to install ubuntu on my desktop, but now i'm just getting grub error 17 when i try to boot. I think it's something to do with me tellling it to install on my scsi drive and having the boot record on the primary ide drive (where the windows partition is). How do i fix it?
[02:23] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  strange
[02:23] <connor> I have a problem with my wireless
[02:23] <NickPresta> Out of curiosity and to confirm my research - when I get errors about SQUASHFS and "cannot read sr0 ...", this means the CD burn was not done properly, correct?
[02:23] <LjL> i doubt i can help, benoit, but stating the problem would give you some more chances of finding someone who can.
[02:24] <connor> The wireless network isn't recognized on Windows OR Ubuntu
[02:24] <devin__> what version is everyone running?
[02:24] <benoit> i dont understand stating? (sorry... i'm french)
[02:24] <LjL> devin__: all 1074 of us?
[02:24] <jrib> benoit: stating ~ explain
[02:24] <connor> but the other computers work and the wireless indicator light on the router is on
[02:24] <reddysetgo> Ljl: have you seen scoobydoo in here ? He was helping me with this setup and said he had good luck with ubuntu on a amd machine
[02:24] <devin__> yes all
[02:24] <benoit> ok :)
[02:24] <NickPresta> @devin__: Kubuntu 7.04.
[02:24] <Semper> LjL
[02:24] <LjL> reddysetgo, i was away until shortly ago
[02:25] <dal> connor, i think i have the same problem
[02:25] <devin__> i upgraded from .15 to .16
[02:25] <Semper> how would i get this named dropped so i may register it?
[02:25] <devin__> and now the system doesn't have any devices
[02:25] <ProN00b> my mp3player has a problem with linux
[02:25] <LjL> Semper, you mean your nickname? it's not registered.
[02:25] <reddysetgo> Ljl: ok
[02:25] <NickPresta> @devin__: Oh, my kernel version. 2.6.20-16-generic
[02:25] <connor> dal: When I'm on Windows or Linux, no networks show up
[02:25] <Semper> LjL someone told me it was but nobody has used in a long time im not sure if they dropped it or not
[02:26] <LjL> Semper: apparently they dropped it, as it's currently not registered
[02:26] <dal> connor, on my linux, networks show up, but it still does not connect
[02:26] <connor> dal: it's not possible that the linux is screwing up the windows, right?
[02:26] <PriceChild> Semper, please head to #freenode for freenode support.
[02:26] <VeganChick01> I split a file using terminal...what's the code to rejoin the split sections?
[02:26] <dal> connor, probably not
[02:26] <jshriver> Hi having a cddb problem
[02:26] <PriceChild> VeganChick01, cat file1 file2 > foo ?
[02:26] <devin_> it's the strangest thing
[02:26] <LjL> VeganChick01: using "split"?
[02:26] <dal> Jordan_U, you still there?
[02:27] <benoit> when i try to configure dual screen, my first screen (X300 - CRT screen) works well, but the second (voodoo 3, LCD) is black. The desktop seem to be extented,as i can move my mouse 'out' of the first screen
[02:27] <tirkan> hey there...is everyone ok?
[02:27] <Semper> @LjL: thankyou
[02:27] <jshriver> Sound Juicer finds the sound tracks fine but doesnt handle mp3.. I like ripperx but it doesnt find the track info... any suggestions?
[02:27] <ProN00b> my mp3 player is a normal usb mass storage device, it requires a fat16 formatting, when connected to linux it first seems perfectly ok and shows all files i put on it from windows and linux, but when i want to load new music on it, it gets on the player, but the player doesn't detect that new music anymore, there has to be some slight difference in how linux and windows handles fat16 that makes it incompatible
[02:27] <benoit> When i disable my first card (X300), the voodoo 3 works well
[02:27] <Jordan_U> dal, yes
[02:27] <reddysetgo> scoobydoo28139: I can't see the names here how do you fix this?
[02:27] <dal> Jordan_U, have you figured out the problem?
[02:27] <devin_> it has auto log in, but while it is logging in i have mouse control and everything, then when finally logs in to the account the system time and everything else is missing, then mouse dies, and nothing responds, not even the system buttion. I try plugging in a mouse but the lazor doesn't even turn on.
[02:28] <jordan> Hey guys, im having some real trouble getting wireless to work on my Dell Lat. c610
[02:28] <LjL> !away > Knoeki    (Knoeki, see the private message from Ubotu)
[02:28] <tirkan> does anyone have problems or ever had problems with the text color on some websites when usint ubuntu 7.04?
[02:28] <Jordan_U> dal, No, I am not familiar with your card :(
[02:28] <Azhi_Dahaka> is it possible to upgrade from Dapper into Ubuntu Ultimate 1.3?
[02:28] <Semper> would anyone have an idea when blender may come out for the 7.04
[02:28] <dal> Jordan_U,  if i were to get a different card, which one would you suggest?
[02:29] <dal> Jordan_U, one that's cheap and realiable
[02:29] <LjL> Azhi_Dahaka, Ubuntu Ultimate Whatever is not an official Ubuntu distribution of any kind.
[02:29] <Azhi_Dahaka> oh... that's bad
[02:29] <LjL> Azhi_Dahaka: it's possible to update from Dapper to Edgy, and it's possible to update from Edgy to Feisty (which is the most recent version)
[02:29] <lockd> Semper: blender is available on feisty
[02:29] <Azhi_Dahaka> But Feisty hates my audio card
[02:29] <reddysetgo> Ljl: is there a linux channel here? or is it all ubuntu?
[02:29] <dinkle> im using feisty ubuntu and i cannot get amarok to sync to my ipod.  it apparently sends the files to the ipod but when unplugged, i cannot see them on the ipod can anyone help?
[02:29] <Semper> @Lockd: for ubuntu 7.04?
[02:29] <LjL> reddysetgo: *this* channel is about Ubuntu. try #linux for a generic channel.
[02:29] <VeganChick01> PriceChild: i split the file into about 30 parts, can i still use that code?
[02:30] <VeganChick01> ljl: yes, using the split command
[02:30] <PriceChild> VeganChick01, how did you split them?
[02:30] <connor> It's not possible for Linux to screw up the wireless on the Windows half of a dual-boot, right?
[02:30] <jordan> Is there a trick to get a WN321G wireless USB dongle to work on a Dell Latitude C610?  When I plug it in, the system goes either VERY slow or freezes
[02:30] <LjL> VeganChick01: yes, cat will do it
[02:30] <reddysetgo> Ljl: tks peace out
[02:30] <LjL> !pm | tirkan
[02:30] <ubotu> tirkan: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[02:30] <VeganChick01> just type in "cat" then all the file names then "> foo"  ?
[02:30] <lockd> Semper: yes 7.04.. and use tab completion for names
[02:31] <PriceChild> VeganChick01, I "think" that'll work :)
[02:31] <LjL> VeganChick01: in the right order.
[02:31] <Semper> lockd: tab completion?
[02:31] <VeganChick01> ljl: right, ok thanks!
[02:31] <LjL> !tab > Semper    (Semper, see the private message from Ubotu)
[02:31] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  i have it on ALsa Mixer now and Sauerbraten worked
[02:31] <Boshi> Jordan_U:  strange
[02:31] <Jordan_U> dal, Look here for a good list of cards and how well they work in Ubuntu: Look for ones that work "out of the box"
[02:31] <BB22> any good torrent site for movies?
[02:31] <Semper> !LjL: like this?
[02:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ljl: like this? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:31] <Semper> x.x
[02:31] <Jordan_U> dal, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[02:31] <Nighteye> Hi
[02:32] <LjL> Semper: without the exclamation mark perhaps
[02:32] <VeganChick01> i really dislike the fact that terminal doesn
[02:32] <VeganChick01> doesn't say what it's doing during simple commands that take a while
[02:32] <CWar> howdy ... i got a problem with copying large files from an xp pc to xubuntu ... "Specified network name no longer available"
[02:32] <Nighteye> secret
[02:33] <Azhi_Dahaka> how can i force an update on firefox?
[02:33] <Jordan_U> VeganChick01, You can often use -v  ( for verbose ) to get more output from a command
[02:33] <Azhi_Dahaka> it's stuck on 1.5
[02:33] <VeganChick01> i'm always afraid it's frozen
[02:33] <VeganChick01> Jordan_U: thanks
[02:33] <Jordan_U> Azhi_Dahaka, What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[02:33] <CWar> azhi ... can you just remove then reinstall?
[02:33] <Azhi_Dahaka> 6.06 LTS
[02:33] <Azhi_Dahaka> Can't upgrade to Feisty
[02:33] <Azhi_Dahaka> Hates my audio card
[02:34] <Semper> azhi what do u meen
[02:34] <Semper> ati?
[02:34] <lockd> audio card
[02:34] <Boshi> you cant upgrade from 6.06 to feisty
[02:34] <Semper> oh.
[02:34] <Semper> sorry misread.
[02:34] <lockd> Boshi: is it possible at all?
[02:34] <LjL> it's possible by upgrading to Edgy first.
[02:34] <Boshi> it has to be a newer verison then 6.06
[02:34] <Jordan_U> Azhi_Dahaka, You know that you need to go Dapper -> Edgy -> Feisty, not directly to Feisty right?
[02:34] <tirkan> LjL I got a problem, I can't clearly see the text in some websites because the text is in white color. is there anyway of doing that?it also happens even more when I'm using a dark theme
[02:34] <Regenerater> hey...does some one know how I can get write access to windows...I can easily get read only access. also, then i look at the properties of the windows folder it says the owner is root but I can't login as root. I guess I need to change the owner. Can this be done?
[02:35] <Regenerater> i've got ubuntu 7.04
[02:35] <Boshi> lockd no not if you have 6.06
[02:35] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | Regenerater
[02:35] <ubotu> Regenerater: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[02:35] <vox754> !ntfs | Regenerater
[02:35] <ubotu> Regenerater: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[02:35] <lockd> Boshi: didn't realize there were 2 versions in between
[02:35] <Semper> is there anyway to establish a direct link with my computer and another (girlfriends) which i can run commands to?
[02:35] <LjL> tirkan, the theme should have very little to do with how text in *sites* is displayed, as the theme doesn't affect your web browser in any way. a quick workaround is, select the text with the mouse.
[02:35] <Boshi> lockd ^^ ;)
[02:35] <lockd> Boshi: or more.. I just hope I am able to upgrade to the next seamlessly
[02:35] <Jordan_U> Semper, Yes, ssh
[02:35] <LjL> lockd: there is only one version inbetween, Edgy.
[02:35] <tirkan> LjL I got Ubuntu 7.04
[02:36] <thechris> I don't have any CD-R's, can I use a DVD-R or DVD+R for burning the ISO for ubuntu?
[02:36] <Boshi> lockd hmm what version do you got?
[02:36] <Jordan_U> thechris, Yes
[02:36] <CWar> just curious ... why is the ntfs3g thing better than samba?
[02:36] <bruenig> thechris, yes you can put the cd iso on a dvd or alternatively there is a dvd iso
[02:36] <thirdy> is there a library in xmms?
[02:36] <LjL> CWar: how are the two related?
[02:36] <lockd> Boshi: 7.04
[02:36] <thechris> bruenig: where is the dvd iso?
[02:36] <Boshi> lockd thats the latest one
[02:36] <Jordan_U> thechris, If you don't want to "waste" a DVD there is a larger DVD image also with more on it
[02:37] <CWar> doesn't samba let you access your windows shares from a linux box?
[02:37] <Jordan_U> thechris, But the standard iso will work just fine on a DVD
[02:37] <Jordan_U> CWar, Yes
[02:37] <lockd> Boshi: right.. but it will be possible to upgrade to next version by just changing the repositories and running update?
[02:37] <connor> It's not possible for Linux to screw up the wireless on the Windows half of a dual-boot, right?
[02:37] <bruenig> thechris, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/7.04/release/
[02:37] <CWar> so, what does ntfs3g do that samba doesn't?
[02:37] <VeganChick01> darnit...so i split an iso because i couldn't get it from my ubuntu partition to my OS X partition...but now it's not an iso anymore!
[02:37] <LjL> CWar, ntfs-3g is a hack, ehm i mean "driver", for reading and writing NTFS filesystems. Samba is a networking filesystem to let you access Windows shares (or shares files to a Windows machine). they're totally not realted.
[02:37] <tirkan> LjL humn...I see...so, apart from selecting the text with the mouse, there's nothing else that can be done?is just that, it happens in loads of websites with white or grey background.
[02:37] <Boshi> lockd dont worry the when a new verison it will be in the Synaptiv Packet MAnager
[02:37] <bruenig> thechris, it doesn't install anything more, it just has a bunch of extra software on it that you can access if you add the dvd as a repo via apt-cdrom
[02:38] <LjL> CWar, what does a bicycle that a microwave oven doesn't?
[02:38] <CWar> ntfs3 assumes the hard drive is installed on the system? i missed that part (hence asking the question)
[02:38] <Jordan_U> connor, You are correct, it's not
[02:38] <lockd> Boshi: thanks
[02:38] <Boshi> lockd dont think you have to change tje repositories
[02:38] <LjL> CWar: of course it does, it's just a normal filesystem.
[02:38] <Boshi> lockd your welcome ;)
[02:38] <jshriver> :)
[02:38] <LjL> CWar: SMB is a *network* protocol, and Samba is an implementation of t.
[02:39] <Boshi> Is it anyone else having problem with the sound then me?
[02:39] <LjL> CWar: you can't use Samba to access local harddrives, just as you can't use ntfs-3g to access network shares.
[02:39] <thechris> how good is the 64 bit support in ubuntu in terms of media support, kde support, and just in general
[02:40] <LjL> thechris: not very, if by "media support" you mean Flash, codecs, and such amenities.
[02:40] <CWar> ljl ... dude, i get it already ... you know me than me ... i bow before your awesome knowledge ...
[02:40] <LjL> thechris: there shouldn't be a problem with KDE at all.
[02:40] <LjL> CWar: no need to be sarcastic.
[02:40] <thechris> LjL: what of the 32bit ubuntu?
