[16:46] <ubuntuuu> bazhang: I changed the monitor to another option called "Unknown" which made no screen work. Then i installed "atitvout" but now I read its outdated. Google isn't giving me more options so I'm here. :)
[16:46] <Pici> wikzo: install the build-essential package
[16:46] <wikzo> Pici: How? :)
[16:46] <bazhang> ubuntuuu: okay, and how did you install the atitvout?
[16:47] <ubuntuuu> Synaptic
[16:47] <Pici> wikzo: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[16:47] <bazhang> sudo apt-get install oops
[16:47] <vallhalla81> when i save a theme where does it save to?
[16:47] <wikzo> Pici: Oh, sorry. It is a specific package. Thought you mean generally
[16:47] <ubuntuuu> Getting drivers from ATI now then. :)
[16:47] <onikitsune> hey anyone got a link to somewhere that will tell me how to install alsa, i got all the files for it, jsut don't know how to compil it
[16:47] <Pici> wikzo: yes, its a metapackage of everything you need to compile something (except for specific sources things need of course)
[16:48] <bazhang> ubuntuuu: have you tried the restricted driver manager? you dont need to compile them
[16:48] <ubuntuuu> bazhang: I dont know what that is.
[16:48] <onikitsune> hey anyone got a link to somewhere that will tell me how to install alsa, i got all the files for it, jsut don't know how to compil it
[16:48] <wad> What is the program for navigating files and directories?
[16:48] <PokoLoko>  Hi there
[16:48] <PokoLoko> I need some help regarding Hardy Heron
[16:48] <Pici> !hardy | PokoLoko
[16:48] <ubotu> PokoLoko: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[16:49] <mettler> find: /lib/firmware/2.6.22-14-generic: No such file or directory ;/
[16:49] <mettler> any packages i need?
[16:49] <wikzo> Pici: When I try to install it, it tells me to insert the Ubuntu 7.10 CD-ROM
[16:49] <bazhang> nautilus wad?
[16:49] <pawan> great man it worked
[16:49] <wad> bazhang, ah, thanks!
[16:49] <pawan> thanks
[16:49] <zoomboot8> pawan: glad to hear it :)
[16:50] <Pici> wikzo: remove the cdrom repository option from System>Administration>Software Sources
[16:50] <pawan> how do u know
[16:50] <zoomboot8> pawan: because it happened to me, too, whenever I changed my partitions
[16:50] <wad> bazhang, we can't find Nautilus on the menus. Where do we find it?
[16:50] <espham> does anyone here know how I mount my external HD?
[16:50] <pawan> great
[16:50] <onikitsune> anyone know the commands to complie alsa?
[16:50] <dgjones> !alsa | onikitsune
[16:50] <ubotu> onikitsune: 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
[16:50] <erUSUL> !intelhda | onikitsune
[16:50] <ubotu> onikitsune: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[16:51] <Scunizi> espham, try mount -a
[16:51] <hischild> wad, nautilus is the graphical file manager. If you go to home in places, you're using nautilus
[16:51] <sn0> onikitsune can i ask why you are compiling alsa? its available for you , unless you are having sound problems then if so please elaborate.
[16:51] <sfears> !sound
[16:51] <erUSUL> onikitsune: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto here there are steps to compile alsa
[16:51] <bazhang> onikitsune: you know there is a channel for that especially?
[16:51] <onikitsune> thank you guys, and bazhang, yes i do, thank you
[16:51] <wad> hischild, Okay.... under windows, I press WIN-E and I get the file manager. How do I get it under linux?
[16:51] <bazhang> ah okay ;]
[16:52] <rosagabriela> hola soy argentina
[16:52] <wad> WIN-E doesn't work here.
[16:52] <sfears> is there a way to undo updates i made with adept_updater last night.. i believe that's what killed my audio sound
[16:52] <bazhang> rosagabriela: espanol?
[16:52] <zoomboot8> wad: you can make your own shortcut keys by going to System>>Preferences>>Keyboard Shortcuts
[16:52]  * wad tries it
[16:52] <Pici> wad: Use the Places Menu, or configure your own keys like zoomboot8 said
[16:52] <hischild> wad, the only way i'm aware of would be via places -> home ... or alt f2 and then type nautilus
[16:53] <sfears> i've purged & reinsatlled alsa.. still no luck.. booted into a different kernel, no luck, system beeps work fine, volume levels in mixers look good.  windows sounds work fine
[16:53] <anthony> Sigh, could someone help me with rsync?  I'm trying to migrate a server, and I have the accounts all set up already, and moved the /home directory as it was a few weeks ago.  However, some users made changes on the source server since then, and I need to mirror those changes before we complete the switch.  I only need directories matching /home/fooXX, where XX is an integer 01-26.
[16:53] <wad> Ah! We missed this obvious thing. :()
[16:54] <wad> It worked!
[16:56] <Oberon> How can i view package versions from aptitude search?
[16:56] <sfears> !sound
[16:56] <ubotu> 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
[16:56] <sn0> Oberon using "aptitude show"
[16:56] <Oberon> thanks sn0
[16:56] <sn0> np
[16:57] <linlynx6> thank I will try that
[16:57] <wikzo> Pici: Sorry I'm asking again, but now I got an error during make. See it here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59499/
[16:58] <anthony> Oberon: or apt-cache policy.
[16:58] <Akkeresu> Hi! I'm using Ubuntu 7.10, and I'm having some issues. I was setting up a PDC for Samba and had to reboot, but now I can no longer log in.
[16:58] <sfears> sound quit working after updates.. any ideas where i can start?
[17:00] <DarkShadow_> How can I tell if my graphics card was installed fully?
[17:00] <wad> DarkShadow_, push down on it, until it's all the way in the slot.
[17:00]  * wad ducks
[17:00] <DarkShadow_> my bad, I meant software-wise...I know the hardware is installed right
[17:01] <UndertakerX2> Couldnt I use GParted LiveCD to modify the potions of my drive and install ubuntu to retore grub?
[17:01] <Akkeresu> My computer will say, "No logon servers" and then after hitting OK, it will go for a few seconds and say Authentication failed.
[17:02] <zoomboot8> DarkShadow_: go to a terminal and type "glxgears"  .... it will give you an idea of the 3d gl performance of your card
[17:03] <Ricky_> ciao a tutti!!!
[17:03] <UndertakerX2> Couldnt I use GParted LiveCD to modify the potions of my drive and install ubuntu to retore grub?
[17:03] <leti> bye bye ho fame
[17:03] <Pici> leti: excuse me?
[17:04] <DarkShadow_> actually I'm pretty sure that the drivers aren't installed yet (I went in Screens and Graphics), but glxgears works fine--but then I also have integrated graphics.
[17:04]  * Akkeresu bangs his head against the desk.
[17:04] <Pici> !it | Ricky_
[17:04] <damjan> is it possible to find some pre-release of the Ubuntu mobile edition? I'd like to try put it on an Asus eeePC

[17:04] <Akkeresu> Why will it not let me in?
[17:04] <web_> noi siamo tra i 1300 utenti!
[17:04] <web_> 1303
[17:04] <zoomboot8> DarkShadow_: when you did "glxgears" and left it for about 10 seconds... what FPS did it say you had?

[17:04] <web_> aiuto! mici siamo perse
[17:05] <Slart> !it | web_
[17:05] <DarkShadow_> It said I was getting about 2800 FPS
[17:05] <viola> ciao ragassi!!!
[17:05] <ubotu> web_: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!

[17:05] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado.
[17:05] <web_> ok darling be quiet
[17:05] <balle_> hey, anybody knows i i can update from 6.06 to 7.10 (is it?)
[17:05] <gracia> abla en español
[17:05] <Slart> !upgrade | balle_
[17:05] <ubotu> balle_: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[17:05] <zoomboot8> DarkShadow_: holy crap, I only get 830 fps with my radeon x1300.... your card is very much installed!
[17:05] <Pici> gracia: /j #ubuntu-es
[17:05] <balle_> !upgrade
[17:05] <web_> no hablo espanol
[17:05] <Slart> balle_: I think the earlier upgrades were more difficult than they are now..
[17:06] <DarkShadow_> ah...okay, yeah I have an x1650
[17:06] <Slart> balle_: but read the link and decide if you want to upgrade... a reinstall might be better/faster
[17:06] <Akkeresu> Has anyone had issues with logging in and getting a "No Login Servers" and "Authentication Failed" message?
[17:06] <DarkShadow_> hmm, then how do I get my dual-monitors to extend rather than mirror?
[17:07] <DarkShadow_> that section is grayed out in "Screen and Graphics Properties"
[17:07] <zoomboot8> DarkShadow_: you can also see the installed driver by typing: "glxinfo | grep OpenGL"
[17:07] <bazhang> DarkShadow_: like xinerama?
[17:07] <Slart> Akkeresu: nope.. but it sounds like it's trying to authenticate with some external servers.. have you changed anything?
[17:08] <DarkShadow_> xinerama?
[17:08] <Akkeresu> Slart: I was in the middle of setting up my machine as a PDC, and had to reboot.
[17:08] <bazhang> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo DarkShadow_
[17:08] <Slart> Akkeresu: ah.. well.. something isn't quite right then..
[17:09] <ubuntuuu> I want to install "ati-driver-installer-8-3-x86.x86_64.run". How do I do? =)
[17:09] <zoomboot8> DarkShadow_: so in "Screens and Graphics", if you click on "Screen 2" and then "Secondary Screen", you still cannot go to "extend"?
[17:09] <Akkeresu> Slart: I made backups of the modified files, but I can't get in to switch them out.
[17:09] <Slart> ubuntuuu: try this "sudo sh ati-driver-installer-8-3-x86_64.run"
[17:09] <Akkeresu> And, there's no terminal in the LiveCD.
[17:09] <Slart> ubuntuuu:  you might have to do that with x shut down..
[17:09] <bastid_raZor> ubuntulog; if you're in the same directory as that file type ./ati-driver-installer-8-3-x86.x86_64.run
[17:09] <Slart> Akkeresu: try booting from a live cd and replace the files
[17:10] <Akkeresu> Already tried. Can't get to a terminal.
[17:10] <ubuntuuu> "sh: Can't open ati-driver-installer-8-3-x86_64.run"
[17:10] <josotosan> ààà°
[17:10] <ubuntuuu> =/
[17:10] <Slart> bastid_raZor: and make sure the .run file is marked as executable
[17:10] <bastid_raZor> Slart; true, some aren't
[17:10] <Slart> ubuntuuu: I made a typo with the filename.. use the correct filename
[17:10] <DarkShadow_> zoomboot8: correct -- except it shows 2 "Screen 1" entries, with one grayed out.
[17:11] <skillz> hi, i managed to move my menu bar from the top of my screen to the left by accident, but now i cant move it back becuase all the buttons and icons are in the way so i cant click anywhere that is free to drag it back to the top... is there a workaround for this?
[17:12] <Slart> skillz: remove something so you can get to the panel.. the clock is pretty big.. or the application menu
[17:12] <DRebellion> skillz, delete some buttons
[17:12] <balle_> it says my password is wrong, even though it is correct :/ any way to reset my password
[17:12] <skillz> ok, will do
[17:12] <balle_> ?
[17:12] <skillz> thanks
[17:12] <web_> \nick goldrake
[17:12] <Slart> balle_: checked caps-lock?
[17:12] <skillz> ok, how do i get my clock back?
[17:12] <balle_> slart: yees
[17:12] <Slart> skillz: right click on the panel, select add
[17:12] <DRebellion> skillz, right-click -> add to panel
[17:13] <skillz> done, thanks guys :D
[17:13] <No1CaNTeL> hey guys, hoping you can help me with an anooying problem :P I currently share my dvd over my network to play movies off of through my Xbox. I setup the share just fine but the problem I run into is that once I start a video form the DVD drive over the net, the disc is locked in th edrive and when I try to eject I get a msg saying "Cannot Eject Volume: An application is preventing the volume 'data' from being ejected
[17:13] <No1CaNTeL> d drive, like virtualbox, and I had already turned off the xbox as well. Anyone know how to override this annoyance?
[17:13] <phil66> Using Pidgin to access this chat room.When opening Pidgin in ordeer to get to chat room I have to go accounts>add/edit and disable chat and buddies then re enable. Is this a Pidgin flaw or normal procedure. Any workarounds
[17:13] <Slart> balle_: passwords don't just change themselves.. most of the time anyways.. what did you try to do?
[17:13] <No1CaNTeL> I don't see why a drive should ever be locked like that except when it is system proccesses that are being used
[17:13] <No1CaNTeL> tia
[17:13] <zoomboot8> DarkShadow_: I have to go, but you might have more luck running the actual ati configuring program... use the command "sudo amdcccle"
[17:13] <DarkShadow_> alrighty
[17:14] <DarkShadow_> thanks for the help
[17:14] <balle_> slart: yes well.. i am trying to update from 6.06  to 6.10  and it has asked me to enter the root password
[17:14] <Slart> No1CaNTeL: hmm.. isn't there a way to "force" the eject? checked the man page?
[17:14] <skillz> one more thing.. i have seen many screenshots of linux with a bar at the bottom that looks like the MAC OS
[17:14] <skillz> how can i achieve that look?
[17:14] <Slart> balle_: root password? ubuntu doesn't use that..
[17:14] <No1CaNTeL> sorry, I'm a noober :P you have the link to the man page?
[17:14] <brunner> hi all
[17:14] <balle_> slart: sec.
[17:14] <Slart> No1CaNTeL: man pages are installed automagically.. run "man eject" in a terminal
[17:14] <ubuntuuu> "Generating package: Ubuntu/7.10

[17:15] <genii> AAAAAAAAAA
[17:15] <ubuntuuu> Ops, kinda much =/
[17:15] <brunner> how can I figure out what package caused a specific instance of libflashplayer.so to exist?
[17:15] <balle_> slart: alt-f4 is NOT alt-f2
[17:15] <Slart> ubuntuuu: don't paste that much text in here.. use pastebin
[17:15] <Slart> !paste | ubuntuuu
[17:15] <ubotu> ubuntuuu: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined 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 channel topic)
[17:15] <brunner> or more importantly, how can I uninstall it?
[17:15] <No1CaNTeL> one sec :P sorry, thought you were short forming "Manual" :P
[17:15] <No1CaNTeL> one sec, ty
[17:15] <bubuntu> hi folks, is there any method to reinstall ubuntu without do format?
[17:15] <Slart> balle_: nope.. that's what I always tell my students.. =).. or something
[17:15] <Pici> brunner: dpkg -s /path/to/file
[17:15] <DRebellion> brunner, i'm betting either flashplugin-nonfree or gnash
[17:15] <balle_> slart: to run the update program you must enter the root passwords, any thougts?
[17:15] <Pici> brunner: er, -S
[17:16] <skillz> is there a way of getting the mac OS looking bar at the bottom of ubuntu, and removing the current one?
[17:16] <ubuntuuu> Is there any easy way to get graphic drivers or do I actually have to spend over 4hours trying to get my tv-out to work? >:(
[17:16] <Slart> balle_: are you really really really sure it wants the root password.. are you following some kind of howto?
[17:16] <Pici> ubuntuuu: Any reason you aren't using the restricted-drivers manager?
[17:16] <Slart> skillz: I think it's called avant.. not sure though.. not using it myself
[17:17] <LSD|Ninja> the restricted rivers manager is a godsend
[17:17] <LSD|Ninja> drivers*
[17:17] <jared> has anyone heard of audio problems after installing ubuntu
[17:17] <ubuntuuu> Cause I don't know what it is. All my searching tells me to download drivers from ATI and use. Including this chat.
[17:17] <skillz> avant, is there other ones? so that i can choose?
[17:17] <LSD|Ninja> ubuntuuu: look in System -> Administration
[17:17] <balle_> slart yea i am following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgra   doing the gksu "update-man....  in the alt-f2 terminal because the regular one wouldnt
[17:17] <Pici> ubuntuuu: Go to System>Administration>Restricted Drivers
[17:17] <v3ctor> skillz: avant window navigator
[17:17] <Slart> skillz: there are many.. one uses cairo.. cairo-dock or something.. then there's avant.. and one is a desklet I think..
[17:18] <skillz> slart: which one is best do u recomened?
[17:18] <LSD|Ninja> you should also be told quite loudly that you have hw that needs restricted (god I hate that term) drivers. Dunno how you missed it.
[17:18] <Slart> balle_: gksu wants your user password.. not the root password
[17:18] <balle_> hmm, sec
[17:18] <balle_> gksu "update-manager -c"
[17:18] <Slart> skillz: I recommend you google around and try them.. I don't use any of those
[17:18] <balle_> damn...
[17:19] <v3ctor> skillz: i have been really happy with awn
[17:19] <balle_> slart: it does say that it wants the root password, and i don't like it either
[17:20] <Slart> balle_: and it doesn't matter if you use alt+f2 or alt+f4 or any of the f1-f6 keys.. it's the same
[17:20] <balle_> slart: well, alt-f4 closes the x-chat window.
[17:21] <Slart> balle_: sorry.. ctrl+alt+f1  up to ctrl+alt+f6..
[17:21] <Slart> balle_: once you're out in the black you can use alt+f1-f7 to switch
[17:21] <No1CaNTeL> Slart: I found the options but being a complete nix noob, I'm not sure which flags I should be using with the command, would you mind giving an example if it is not too much trouble?? I've tried man eject -r cdrom0 but nothing happens
[17:21] <Pici> balle_: try gksudo instead of gksu
[17:21] <balle_> slart: ahh between terminals? nifty
[17:21] <hischild> No1CaNTeL, dont use man in front of a command, it'll try to find a manual for it.
[17:22] <Slart> balle_: yes.. you've got a couple of those to play around with
[17:22] <Slart> No1CaNTeL: one second.. I'll take a look
[17:22] <brunner> I've uninstalled gnash and flashplugin-nonfree, but ~/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so is still installed.  What's the proper way to uninstall it?
[17:22] <No1CaNTeL> ahh, gotchya :P one sec
[17:22] <No1CaNTeL> it sayst he device is busy
[17:22] <hischild> No1CaNTeL, is a program accessing it?
[17:22] <Hammer89> does anyone remember what the compiz irc channel was?
[17:22] <balle_> slart: IT's aliiiive it's ALIIVE
[17:23] <bazhang> #compiz
[17:23] <No1CaNTeL> not anymore, this is the problem, I share the drive to play vieos off of it over smb through my xbox, it's like the xbox doesnt release or something, even after the xbox has been reset/powered off
[17:23] <Hammer89> bazhang: lol... thanks **why didn't I think of that** :P
[17:23] <Slart> balle_: that was fast.. everything worked now? root password and all?
[17:23] <balle_> slart: well now i have a buck load of problems causing me to be unable to update my system something with -1
[17:23] <No1CaNTeL> I've had to keep logging off to fix the issue, which gets tedius
[17:24] <balle_> slart: no root needed
[17:24] <balle_> correction: something with -w
[17:24] <No1CaNTeL> the only other app is virtualbox, but that should not cause issues
[17:24] <Slart> No1CaNTeL: doesn't seem to be a "force" option.. I guess you'll have to stop sharing the drive before you can unmount it.. sounds unpractical..
[17:24] <ethan961> No1CaNTel, can you unmount then mount again?
[17:24] <Slart> balle_: ok.. as long as it works =)
[17:24] <ethan961> nvm
[17:24] <No1CaNTeL> how do I go about doing that?
[17:24] <balle_> slart: could this be because ubuntu is not running on my -c or something? i know the partitions are numbered but anyway
[17:25] <No1CaNTeL> or maybe how to find out which program is still accessing the drivE?
[17:25] <ethan961> sorry, that's the problem
[17:25] <audiosensecd1_> peeps ne1 culd help to run eggdrop
[17:25] <balle_> slart: well it does not work, i have like a page of problems that i dont really get..
[17:25] <Slart> balle_: I've never seen a system act up because it isn't installed on the first drive.. it must be something else
[17:25] <pawan> hi
[17:25] <balle_> slart: i get the problems, not the solution
[17:25] <Slart> balle_: pastebin the errors and we'll deal with them one by one

[17:26] <Slart> !info webboard
[17:26] <No1CaNTeL> I alsi run into a nother problem with networking the xbox which is accessing files. I have to reset permissions for the shared folder each time I add a new file to shared or the xbox doesnt play it.

[17:28] <balle_> but, i'm not really sure of what to pastebin, is it the stuff in the terminal or is it the errors i for in the software updates app?
[17:29] <hischild> balle_, everything
[17:29] <Slart> No1CaNTeL: there is this nifty little tool called lsof (ls open files) that lists all open files.. combine that with grep and you could do something like "lsof | grep -i /dev/scd0" to see what process has the file /dev/scd0 open.. change that to /media/yourdvddrive or whatever is appropriate
[17:29] <Slart> balle_: anything that looks like an error, I guess

[17:32] <[_Snarf_]> Anyone familiar with MythTV? Specifically the backend
[17:32] <No1CaNTeL> it' says it's just VirtualBox that is using the drive with that command line, although I still have it open now, I have tested to see if it was virtualbox that caused this issue and even when it is turned off, it still does this. I will give it another shot just to be sure, maybe I had something else running the last time as well without realizing :P
[17:32] <No1CaNTeL> Slart: ^

[17:33] <kes> hello. i booted in kubuntu livecd, installed lvm2, load dm-mod, lvdisplay show that my volum in /dev/vg/tmp but i don't have /dev/vg folder
[17:34] <No1CaNTeL> is there not a way to turn off this security setting?? the one that denies you the ability to open a dvd drive while it is in use?? In windows I have never run into a problem ejecting in the middle, unless I interrupted an install or something, I would prefer to have this off if possible :P
[17:34] <Slart> balle_: looking
[17:34] <jskulski> trackerd seems to eat up some CPU in top
[17:34] <No1CaNTeL> well, only one line was returned to me when I used that command you had posted: "lsof | grep -i /dev/scd0
[17:34] <No1CaNTeL> :P
[17:34] <No1CaNTeL> I wisht ehre was more too it
[17:34] <Slart> No1CaNTeL: I don't think it's a security setting.. removing stuff while something is using it might mess things up..
[17:34] <Devo> What's the difference between /usr/bin/sh and /usr/bin/bash?
[17:34] <matthew_> vg: ur doin in wrong!
[17:34] <DavidCraft> how do I install a CPU temperaure app in ubuntu on the tap bar?
[17:34] <Slart> Devo: sh is linked to dash.. bash is bash

[17:35] <Devo> Slart: What is dash?
[17:35] <matthew_> small shell.
[17:35] <Slart> !dash
[17:35] <ubotu> /bin/sh links to the DASH shell in all releases since Ubuntu Edgy (6.10). Since DASH is not 100% compatible with the BASH shell, some scripts might break. You can make scripts execute using BASH by changing the first line of the script to « #! /bin/bash
[17:35] <erUSUL> DavidCraft: right clicl add to panel
[17:35] <No1CaNTeL> I can understand that when installing an app and you hit eject, but for when the drive is not being used, I should not be locked out of it, or even if it is in use and idle I should not be locked out , imho at least
[17:35] <matthew_> quick to create a dash process.  uses less memory.  used in init scripts.

[17:35] <ubotu> DavidCraft: You might find something useful at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto
[17:35] <Slart> Devo: it's a small shell.. similar, but not identical, to sh.. it's kind of complicated..
[17:35] <DavidCraft> I need an app to DO this. What app?
[17:36] <prince_jammys> DavidCraft: maybe conky
[17:36] <matthew_> the swith to dash for init scripts was done to improve boot time.
[17:36] <matthew_> and what's more, it worked.

[17:37] <Ergo^> i ve added a NFS share but i dont know how to access it
[17:37] <Slart> balle_: it looks like your ubuntu servers are wrong.. you won't be able to update if the servers aren't correct
[17:37] <damjan> Devo: depends on "better"... it's a minimalistic shell
[17:37] <Slart> Devo: I think dash is better than sh.. bash is more of a "for daily use"-shell..
[17:37] <Devo> damjan: I see.
[17:37] <balle_> slart: yes well,  was thinking in that direction, could you possibly help me on how to correct my servers?
[17:38] <Slart> Devo: sh/dash is mostly just used for scripts and such
[17:38] <Devo> Slart: What is Bash used for?
[17:38] <sfears> is there a way to reverse updates i made using adept_updater yesterday? it killed my audio playback
[17:38] <prince_jammys> scripts and such :)
[17:38] <prince_jammys> Devo: the startup scripts are run in dash
[17:38] <jskulski> if i shut off trackerd what will that affect?
[17:38] <phil66> Help with Pidgin
[17:38] <Slart> Devo: bash is what you get when you run a terminal.. with command completion etc.. but all these features aren't needed if you're just going to run a script.. so for that we have dash.. or sh.. that uses less memory and is a bit faster I presume
[17:39] <damjan> bash is used in 99% of cases where a shell is used
[17:39] <Slart> balle_: let me see what the ubuntu site recommends

[18:11] <Jafet> damjan, you mean, it does rely on persistent swap across hibernates.
[18:11] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_,  Has not breezy reached end of life and those no longer exist

[18:11] <damjan> Jafet: 'persistent swap'?
[18:11] <balle_> jack_sparrow yes i am trying to upgrade it to 6.10
[18:11] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, those dies april 07
[18:12] <Jack_Sparrow> died
[18:12] <Jafet> damjan, <Jafet> data in the swap partition to persist
[18:12] <balle_> jack_sparrow those? what? and how do i fix it?
[18:12] <melch> Does anyone have any ideas why I can't sleep on my macbook pro?
[18:12] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit
[18:12] <Yacci> Where do I get /lib/modules/2.6.24-11-generic/build/ ???
[18:12] <Amp_God> Hi there. Anyone experimented with Custom kernel(s)? ... I cant get the ATI fglrx working with *any* custom kernel.
[18:12] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, do that while I look at something
[18:13] <balle_> doing..
[18:13] <damjan> Jafet: yes.. if you hibernate to disk, the data in the swap partition must be the same
[18:13] <Jafet> damjan, I see. Thanks.
[18:13] <tritium> Yacci: you'd have to install a kernel source package
[18:13] <Yacci> ok, thx and where do i get it?
[18:13] <tritium> Yacci: or, a headers package
[18:13] <Jafet> Yacci, using your favorite package manager.
[18:14] <tritium> Yacci: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic
[18:14] <tritium> Yacci: but, you should already have that installed, as it's a dependency of ubuntu-desktop
[18:15] <melch> Anyone have any ideas?
[18:15] <Yacci> hmm...
[18:15] <K-Rich> Can someone help me.. i installed compiz-fusion from the trevino repositories and for sume reason it is running like 4 times, here is the results of 'ps aux|grep compiz' http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59509/
[18:15] <conb123> Hi imhaving trouble in gusty what happens is everything logs in and i can use anything firefox, terminal whatever but then after 5 minuites everything freezes and locks up i posted my specs http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=721638
[18:15] <tritium> Yacci: "apt-cache policy linux-headers-generic" will tell you its stsatus
[18:15] <beurself> hi for all and kiss for the nice ladies here
[18:15] <tritium> its status*
[18:16] <Housefly7k> whenever I put a cd in the computer i get an error message "Cannot eject volume" "You are not privileged to eject this volume"
[18:16] <balle_> jack_sparrow http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59511/
[18:17] <K-Rich> on feisty btw
[18:17] <Housefly7k> Pressing okay, the message goes away and the cd works
[18:17] <melch> Anyone have any ideas of sleep on? I have no idea what could be wrong. I think it might be nvidia or the ath_pci(madwifi) modules
[18:17] <Jack_Sparrow> one sec

[18:19] <s0u][ight> hello is the amsn package updated?
[18:19] <Jafet> What's the command to find out which process is using a file?
[18:19] <Tu13es> I can tunnel x over SSH from my home system, but how can I do so and have it forward the windows that are currently open on that system?
[18:20] <conb123> Hi im having trouble in gusty what happens is everything logs in and i can use anything firefox, terminal whatever but then after 5 minuites everything freezes and locks up i posted my specs http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=721638
[18:20] <Slart> Tu13es: you can't.. there is an utility called xmove that should do something like that.. but .. well.. you can try for yourself =)
[18:20] <Tu13es> hrm..
[18:21] <Striking7> Heya - I know UNIX doesn't save the creation date of a file - just when it was last modified.  Anyone know if Linux handles that differently?
[18:21] <Tu13es> so I'll need to use VNC if I want to do that?
[18:21] <K-Rich> or can someone tell me which files fun on gnome startup so i can fix it myself?
[18:21] <Slart> Tu13es: yea.. something like that
[18:21] <Tu13es> Slart: gotcha.    Having trouble starting gnome?
[18:22] <melch> Anyone?
[18:22] <Slart> Tu13es: yes.. I agree.. but take a look at xmove.. perhaps you can beat some sense into it..
[18:22] <Jafet> X is slow and ugly!
[18:22] <Tu13es> Slart: will do, thanks :)
[18:22] <Slart> Jafet: not fair.. it's trying its best... =)
[18:22] <K-Rich> Striking7: no, for some reason compiz runs like four times, here is what i've been asking
[18:22] <K-Rich> Can someone help me.. i installed compiz-fusion on feisty from the trevino repositories and for some reason it is running like 4 times, here is the results of 'ps aux|grep compiz' http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59509/
[18:23] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, I was not trying to leave you hangin.. still here..  I have a valid Dapper Source List  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59514/
[18:23] <Striking7> Checking it out, K-Rich
[18:23] <K-Rich> thank you Striking7
[18:23] <Slart> balle_: did you figure it out?
[18:24] <balle_> jack_Sparrow: so i should just use that one to override my current or what?
[18:24] <balle_> slart: mayhaps... still working on getting the right directories to get updates from..
[18:24] <eigma> I have 7.10 on a Dell PowerEdge 1600 with a video adapter that shows up as "ATI Technologies Inc Rage XL" in lspci. I'm using X.org 7.2.0 with xserver-xorg-video-ati 6.6.3-2ubuntu6. xvinfo shows "maximum XvImage size: 720 x 204" but I want a full screen overlay at 1024x768. how do I achieve this?
[18:24] <j2^> Hello people!
[18:24] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, Hold on.. trying to make sure we get this right for you since you fell off the back end of the support line
[18:24] <Striking7> K-Rich, is this causing problems, like eating up a lot of memory or you have to wait for each startup of compiz?
[18:25] <Al-Hur> hi
[18:25] <Al-Hur> I have a cd with an autorun exe. I want to run it in ubuntu. Wine is installed. What do I do next?
[18:25] <j2^> I am confused about i386/amd64 versions. The webpage says that i386 should be used "for newer apples", which to me indicates "Core Processors". AMD64 says "use this if you have a 64-bit processor".. .which the Core2 is... So, what do i really want for a Core2Quad?
[18:26] <Jafet> Striking7: The standard timestamps are only atime, ctime and mtime, I believe.
[18:26] <balle_> jack_sparrow  i'm staying put but i have already open the root for the update thingy places with the bad URLs, so if those are the right ones, a simple copy-paste would do it?   please correct me
[18:26] <Slart> j2^: try the 64bit live cd first.. if that works.. go with it
[18:26] <Striking7> Jafet: so would ctime be creation time?
[18:26] <unimatrix9> Al-Hur rightclick and run with wine
[18:26] <tritium> j2^: while you could use either, most people use the 32bit
[18:26] <K-Rich> Striking7: no alot of memory, like a 400k for the compiz and 15mb for compiz-real... i've been trying to figure out how come it crashes when i try to logout and i noticed this
[18:26] <hischild> j2^, unless you have a specific need for the 64bit ... like more then 4gb of ram, or specific apps ... go for the 32bit
[18:26] <j2^> tritium: Will do!
[18:27] <tritium> j2^: there is no significant peformance gain with 64 bit, and application support on 64bit is not quite as good as on 32 bit
[18:27] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, yes those are the correct repos for the next release up from where you are...  There is a degree of uncertainty here.  Please do not endanger any data you cant replace..
[18:27] <Al-Hur> unimatrix9:  ouch, that gave me an error :(
[18:27] <hischild> tritium, i slightly disagree on that one ... it does run faster over here when running 64bity
[18:27] <balle_> Jack_sparrow so a backup is in order?
[18:27] <Striking7> K-Rich - That doesn't look very suspicious to me... but have you tried killing one or two of the processes and see if things stay stable?
[18:27] <hendrixski> how do I change the FSCK thing to only run every 50 instead of every 30 times I boot?
[18:27] <rano> dfcghndfcghndc
[18:27] <Striking7> K-Rich - do you have an ATI card?
[18:27] <tritium> hischild: I said not significant, not zero
[18:28] <unimatrix9> Al-Hur , cd into the directory of the cdrom and then run with wine...from commandline
[18:28] <hischild> tritium, about 20% increase is pretty much imo
[18:28] <j2^> tritium: then again, there is 8GB in this box....
[18:28] <balle_> Jack_sparrow: well the data i'm trying to change is already corrupted..
[18:28] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, Backups are always in order with distro upgrade.. in my opinion   Use that dapper source list.. then sudo apt-get update
[18:28] <melch> Anyone want to help me figure out why I can't suspend or hibernate?
[18:28] <balle_> will do..
[18:28] <Jafet> Striking7, it's kind of funny. Unix uses ctime as "change time", while Windows uses it as "creation time".
[18:28] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, please find me and let me know how you do.. or dont..
[18:28] <Striking7> Jafet: I just googled that.  Yeah, bummer.
[18:29] <Striking7> Jafet: trying to do some forensics on a hacked box, wondering where a suspicious perl script came from.
[18:29] <siakattackj> I have problem with the wireless card in my toshiba laptop A210-183.... the card as it seems is RTL8187B
[18:29] <tritium> hischild: I assume you're guessing on that 20%.  Most don't notice any significant improvements.
[18:29] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, Offering the best info I have on something that old
[18:29] <siakattackj> I use ubuntu 7.10
[18:29] <K-Rich> Striking7: i have Nvidia card  (well, not card, it's a laptp, the dell e1505n which is the first ubuntu laptop from dell) and i can close all the compizones just not the compiz-real one
[18:30] <balle_> Jack_sparrow duely noted, and greatly appreciated
[18:30] <Striking7> K-Rich, have you looked in your /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[18:30] <conb123> anyone have any ideas about my problem its really bugging me
[18:30] <melch> siakattackj have you tried ndiswrapper?
[18:30] <Jack_Sparrow> any time
[18:30] <K-Rich> Striking7: nope, what should i look for
[18:30] <siakattackj> melch    yes
[18:31] <siakattackj> I  also tried the kernel 24
[18:31] <Striking7> K-Rich, start by looking for lines that have "!!" toward the beginning
[18:31] <Striking7> Those are "oh crud we have a problem" lines
[18:31] <Striking7> After that, look for "EE" lines (error)
[18:31] <Striking7> or "WW" lines (warning)
[18:31] <hischild> tritium, i'm talking about start up time in general ... when it drops from 60 to around 45 seconds ....
[18:32] <damn3d> hey anyone know how to run windows games on ubuntu???
[18:32] <balle_> jack_sparrow it is done getting all the packets, what now? updating in synaptics
[18:32] <Odd-rationale> !wine | damn3d
[18:32] <ubotu> damn3d: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[18:32] <Jafet> Yes you can. Play Doom.
[18:32] <s0u][ight> how can i install tcl/tk 8.5?
[18:32] <siakattackj> melch i also tried the kernel 2.6.24
[18:32] <smev> on a Asus Eee PC, I didn't shutdown properly (bats ran out). Now when I boot up I get the "running in low-gfx mode, cannot detect your video hardware"
[18:32] <damn3d> ya i know about that but not all the games can be played with that
[18:33] <artenius> !cadega
[18:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cadega - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[18:33] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, apt-get upgrade
[18:33] <tritium> hischild: that's likely not a kernel issue
[18:33] <K-Rich> Striking7: nothing has !! in front, alot have II a few have == and ** as well
[18:33] <Striking7> damn3d: unfortunately until people start writing games with opengl instead of direct3d, wine won't be able to play all games.
[18:33] <Odd-rationale> !cedega | damn3d
[18:33] <ubotu> damn3d: cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega
[18:33] <Yacci> Executing "sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic" gives me "E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?". What doeas it mean?
[18:33] <melch> siakattack are you running 64 bit or 32 bit
[18:33] <artenius> damn3d: depends on the game, but you might try to google Cadega
[18:33] <Striking7> K-Rich: Anything with WW, EE, or NI?
[18:34] <siakattackj> melch  64
[18:34] <damn3d> ok then there s no way for me to play counter strike on linux??? warcraft works though
[18:34] <Striking7> damn3d - at winehq.org there's a list of compatible games.
[18:34] <ADHDYoshi> /dev/sda9             33641448  31932636         0 100% /home
[18:34] <Jafet> You're trying to play _Windows_ games that _don't work_ in standard Win32 emulators, somehow. Don't see how that works.
[18:34] <Jack_Sparrow> !appdb
[18:34] <ADHDYoshi> What the heck?
[18:34] <Striking7> damn3d: I've successfully played CounterStrike:Source on Linux.
[18:34] <ubotu> The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org
[18:34] <balle_> jack_sparrow: it is asking me if i am root
[18:34] <ere4si> Yacci, it means you have synaptic open
[18:34] <ADHDYoshi> It's acting like its run out of disk space even though I have 200mb left
[18:35] <Yacci> oh, thx^^
[18:35] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, sudo apt-get upgrade  sorry I get lazy
[18:35]  * ADHDYoshi was going to increase the partition later, but it seems like there's a black whole in his disk
 is there a 64 bit xp driver for your card
[18:35] <ADHDYoshi> What's going on and how do I fix it?
[18:35] <siakattackj> i think this is the problem because in forums other people with 32 bit and ndiswrapper had no problem
[18:35] <j2^> ADHDYoshi: Most likey "root" has 200MB left, normal users cannot use that space.
[18:35] <balle_> ahh
[18:35] <j2^> ADHDYoshi: (root reserved space)
[18:35] <ADHDYoshi> It wasn't like that earlier
[18:35] <ADHDYoshi> but k
[18:35] <balle_> Jack_sparrow and i get wiser \0/
[18:35] <ADHDYoshi> Uh
[18:35] <ADHDYoshi> it shows the same thing in sudo
[18:35] <siakattackj> "is there a 64 bit xp driver for your card"  that's a question??
[18:35] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, fyi, if a command asks for root use sudo.. if it is a gui / graphic program  use gksudo
[18:36] <ADHDYoshi> My system crashed recently
[18:36] <melch> if there is no 64 bit xp driver for your card you are out of luck unless you want to use the 32 bit version of ubuntu
[18:36] <Jafet> Heh, I trashed a Windows recovery partition by misspelling sdb as sda in dd.
[18:36] <Striking7> K-Rich - what kind of crash is it? Like, the machine freezes up? Blank screen? Any details help
[18:36] <ADHDYoshi> The same thing actually is going on with my other laptop... :/
[18:36] <Striking7> Jafet: Noooooouuuuuuuuuuu
[18:36] <ADHDYoshi> DF says there's more space left but it's 100%
[18:36] <Striking7> dd can be merciless.
[18:36] <balle_> jack_sparrow it apperas to be updating npw
[18:36] <ADHDYoshi> Any clue on how to fix this?
[18:36] <Jafet> I think learning unix will be an enriching experience for me.
[18:37] <K-Rich> Striking7: 3 font paths have EE and there is an EE where for second display device (which isn't plugged in)
[18:37] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, wishing you luck
[18:37] <Striking7> Jafet: enriching, but not always rosey...
[18:37] <damn3d> i'm pretty new to the linux environment.... how do i go about knowing it better???
[18:37] <balle_> jack_sparrow gr8 thx for the help mate 1 up from me!
[18:37] <yogi_> hello everyone, how do i conver vmlinux image to vmlinuz image
[18:37] <artenius> Can anyone help me figure out why it says "Failed to initiate Hal" when I login. It wasn't doing this yesterday and now my dvds aren't working. "Unable to open 'dvd://'" I figure they must be related.
[18:37] <Rudin_> hello
[18:37] <Xorothal> damn3d: use it
[18:37] <sinbox> when I copy files over the network from a windows machine is there a way I can keep the original time+date stamp?
[18:37] <K-Rich> err 3 fon't paths have WW
[18:37] <tritium> yogi_: gzip
[18:38] <Striking7> K-Rich - that all sounds pretty benign.  Could you tell me more about the crash? Does GDM come up before it crashes? Does the computer restart? Any detail helps
[18:38] <balle_> how can i through keys change in the multiple dekstops?
[18:38] <Striking7> damn3d - www.ubuntuforums.org did wonders for me.
[18:38] <seika> hello. I have some problems to install my ubuntu, could anyone help me?
[18:38] <yogi_> tritium, thx
[18:38] <sinbox> balle_, alt+ctrl+ left/right
[18:38] <Pici> balle_: ctrl-alt-arrow left or arrow right by default
[18:38] <DRebellion> !ask | seika
[18:38] <ubotu> seika: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[18:38] <Rudin_> the default games have disappeared.  I'm using Ubuntu Hardy Heron.  How can I recover them?
[18:38] <Pici> !hardy | Rudin_
[18:38] <Striking7> damn3d - that was my starting point.
[18:38] <DRebellion> Rudin_, /join #ubuntu+1
[18:38] <ADHDYoshi> Hmmm
[18:38] <ubotu> Rudin_: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[18:38] <tritium> Rudin_: what did you do to make them disapper?
[18:38] <ADHDYoshi> I see what's going on
[18:39]  * ADHDYoshi will increase his partition size now he guesses :/
[18:39] <Rudin_> tritium: nothing at all
[18:39] <damn3d> k
[18:39] <K-Rich> Striking, well, it freezes with just the wallpaper showing, if i try to logout ... when i try to shut down or restart, the wallpaper shows for like a minute before it shows the shutdown bar almost to the end
[18:39] <tritium> Rudin_: there has to be a cause for the effect
[18:39] <Yacci> tritium: When I do what you wrote I get to know that linux-headers-generic is already installed.But there's no "build"-Directory in the 2.6.24-11-Directory...
[18:39] <balle_> Thx
[18:39] <Pici> Yacci: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[18:39] <Yacci> 8.04
[18:39] <Rudin_> Trixsey: simply, after having installed Beta 6, they disappeared
[18:40] <tritium> Yacci: this channel is for 7.10 or earlier.  You know that...
[18:40] <siakattackj> melch   i don't have a problem to use a 32 bit driver if it works
[18:40] <Yacci> yeah
[18:40] <SliMM> hello
[18:40] <tritium> #ubuntu+1 for hardy questions, Yacci
[18:40] <Pici> Rudin_: Please join #ubuntu+1 for hardy/8.04 issues
[18:40] <Yacci> but i thought it weren't anything versionspecific
[18:40] <seika> well, Im completly new to linux, and I tried to install Ubuntu, but my live-cd freezes when loading. I tried the alternate cd also, same problem: it freezes on a nice blue screen
[18:40] <Pici> Yacci: you too
[18:40] <Pici> Yacci: it is.
[18:40] <SliMM> i am installing ubuntu and i have a problem
[18:40] <Yacci> aha
[18:40] <Yacci> thx
[18:40] <Striking7> SliMM - what's up?
[18:41] <SliMM> the partition manager is stuck at 46%, scanning disks..
[18:41] <Housefly7k> seika: how far do you get in both livecd and alternate?
[18:41] <melch> u can't use a 32bit driver on 64bit siaka
[18:41] <unimatrix9> seika : whats the pc ?
[18:41] <Rudin_> ok picy
[18:42] <seika> Housefly7k:  I can boot on them, but when I select the "run or install", the loading bar appears, and freezes after a few seconds
[18:42] <SliMM> what should i do? :-(
[18:42] <AncientRelic> I'm trying to run gsynaptics on gutsy to control my touchpad better, but I'm getting an error message when I try to run it
[18:42] <unimatrix9> seika, did you check the cdrom for errors?
[18:42] <JoCo> Im also trying to install ubuntu and im gettin a problemo when I start it the orange "loding bar" goes side to side and I click install ubuntu but then it spazz's out and the screen messes up and orange dots are everywhere and there anre like 3 half bars now and it freezes
[18:42] <JoCo> and I have tried to install in safe graphics mode as well no luck :/
[18:42] <Pici> JoCo: Try the Alternate CD.
[18:43] <JoCo> whats the alternate cd?
[18:43] <AncientRelic> GSynaptics couldn't initialize.
[18:43] <AncientRelic> You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics
[18:43] <unimatrix9> seika, does the pc hace enough ram memory?
[18:43] <tritium> JoCo: a text-mode installer
[18:43] <seika> unimatrix9:  the cd is working (i'm running the live one on another pc ... md5 correct)
[18:43] <Jack_Sparrow> JoCo, At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails repeat and add noapic acpi=off before the --
[18:43] <AncientRelic> I just want to know where I stick it :)
[18:43] <Pici> !alternate | JoCo
[18:43] <ubotu> JoCo: The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD.  Look for the alternate checkbox on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal
[18:43] <Striking7> SliMM - what kind of disks do you have in the computer?  Do you know if they're SATA, IDE, SATA2?  Do you have any kind of RAID setup?
[18:43] <siakattackj> melch   ooooo.... i hope the problem to be solved soon
[18:43] <JoCo> tritium: ahh ok can i still partition it from text?
[18:43] <Housefly7k> seika: and in the alternate cd at which screen does it freeze?
[18:43] <tritium> JoCo: yes, but try what Jack_Sparrow suggests first.
[18:44] <SliMM> no raid, and do idea of my hdd
[18:44] <sluimers> hi
[18:44] <seika> I have the loading bars in red, then it goes to a blue screen, and freezes
[18:44] <siakattackj> melch    although thanks a lot for helping me
[18:44] <seika> there is no text on the screen ... just plain blue
[18:44] <JoCo> wait an update - after about 5 mins of sitting here "frozen" the screen is a tan color and I can see a mouse
[18:44] <sluimers> I get an error every time I load any program in Ubuntu
[18:44] <SliMM> Striking7: i remember it had some errors about a year ago
[18:44] <JoCo> so am I good to go
[18:44] <JoCo> nvm
[18:44] <melch> siaka you'll need to wait for ndiswrapper to support vista drivers
[18:44] <sluimers> Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "atk-bridge": libatk-bridge.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[18:45] <Striking7> SliMM - the hard drive had some errors?  Like bad sectors?
[18:45]  * Striking7 hopes not
[18:45] <sluimers> every single time
[18:45] <JoCo> its working for some reason
[18:45] <sluimers> so it takes time for the program to load
[18:45] <SliMM> Striking7: yes
[18:45] <sluimers> What do I do?
[18:45] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, How are you tring to install programs
[18:45] <AncientRelic> gsynaptics is giving me this error: GSynaptics couldn't initialize.
[18:45] <AncientRelic> You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics
[18:45] <siakattackj> melch    ok.. i hope it won't take too long because i need the wireless
[18:45] <unimatrix9> seika , whats the type pc and brand?
[18:45] <sluimers> ??, I start the program
[18:45] <sluimers> not install
[18:46] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, apt-get  aptitude   synaptic ?
[18:46] <Striking7> SliMM - if it has bad sectors you may need to dance around them, which would be a really strange guessing game
[18:46] <K-Rich> Striking7: any ideas?
[18:46] <Striking7> SliMM - you may be better off getting a new hard drive :-\
[18:46] <Striking7> K-Rich, I'm sorry, I didn't see you type anything
[18:46] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, ok..
[18:46] <seika> unimatrix9: it's a Pentium Dual Core E2180 on a Abit Fatal1ty FPIN9 SLI mainboard
[18:46] <Striking7> K-Rich - I'll scroll up and try to find it.
[18:46] <sluimers> Wether it's nautilus, firefox, mplayer
[18:46] <K-Rich> ok
[18:46] <SliMM> Striking7: i'll stick to this one for now, can i install ubuntu on it?
[18:46] <sluimers> Okay, aptitude doesn't
[18:47] <sluimers> synaptic does
[18:47] <dinamizador> vbxvb
[18:47] <SliMM> Striking7: GParted is also scanning devices
[18:47] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, running nautilus from cli.. do you see the error?
[18:47] <sluimers> anything that requires a window I guess
[18:47] <SliMM> maybe it's my ipod?
[18:47] <sluimers> the error is always: Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "atk-bridge": libatk-bridge.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[18:48] <Striking7> SliMM - could be.  Try unplugging it and trying again
[18:48] <Striking7> SliMM - the more things we can eliminate as possible problems, the better, right?
[18:48] <Striking7> K-Rich - sounds like it could be an issue with GDM, not X
[18:48] <K-Rich> Gmmmm....
[18:48] <sluimers> I also get an error when logging in, something about at-spi
[18:48] <K-Rich> Hmmmm....
[18:48] <SliMM> should i eject the ubuntu disk?
[18:48] <sluimers> not being able to find it
[18:49] <sluimers> I've tried reinstalling libatspi but to no avail
[18:50] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, I dont know, but have you modified your sources,  done much as root user  run gui programs with sudo
[18:50] <unimatrix9> seika , there are several way's you could go about trouble shooting it, but it depends on what you want, and how bad you want it, and how much you know about the inside of your pc..
[18:50] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow , hmmmmmm
[18:50] <SliMM> Striking7: still not working; i mean it's not "stuck", it's obviously scanning, but i see no results; how long should i wait?
[18:50] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow , maybe, I can't remember anymore what I did
[18:50] <Striking7> SliMM - you want to leave the ubuntu disk in there.
[18:50] <UndertakerX2> Can i use gparted when using a Ubuntu Live CD?
[18:51] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow , it was a week ago before I notices it slows things down
[18:51] <Striking7> SliMM - try restarting the installation process.
[18:51] <Jack_Sparrow> UndertakerX2, yes
[18:51] <sluimers> notices = noticed
[18:51] <seika> unimatrix9: I never used linux, so I don't know anything about it. But I really want to get rid of windows XP too XD
[18:51] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, the more you can tell us the more we can help you
[18:51] <UndertakerX2> Can i use gparted to actually resize an NFTS drive off a Live CD?*
[18:51] <saladdin19> hello friends
[18:51] <SliMM> Striking7: GParted is not working right now
[18:51] <bygeceler> hiii a new I new ubuntu user
[18:51] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow , I'll check out the other error
[18:51] <seika> unimatrix9: So if there is anything I can try to have ubuntu working ... i'm ready to try
[18:52] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit
[18:52] <Striking7> K-Rich - check out /var/log/gdm/*
[18:52] <SliMM> Striking7: i.e. it's stuck
[18:52] <K-Rich> Striking7: i don;t see any error in the gdm log files
[18:52] <Striking7> SliMM - I mean, restart the puter.
[18:52] <K-Rich> (heh funny i was just doing that :) )
[18:52] <ghettokernel> hi, when i first installed ubuntu i could see my windows partitions in the desktop, but i dont know why i cant now, i turned off the computer yesterday and started it today and theres no windows partitions mounted. what can i do?
[18:52] <unimatrix9> seika , did you try noapic , at boot with ubuntu?
[18:52] <SliMM> Striking7: puter?
[18:52] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow , okay
[18:52] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, Provide the pastebin link
[18:52] <UndertakerX2> Jack_Sparrow, Can i use gparted to actually resize an NFTS drive off a Live CD?
[18:53] <sluimers> http://paste.stgraber.org/1509
[18:53] <saladdin19> i just installed ubuntu, after my gentoo, but i don't see the really cool ubuntu OS loading progress bar thing, just a black screen when i boot...any thoughts?
[18:53] <Lectus> ghettokernel: see if it's in places/computer
[18:53] <seika> unimatrix9:  i tried noapic irqpoll noirqdebug and nolapic (just following advise from someone)
[18:53] <Lectus> ghettokernel: it may not have an icon on the desktop
[18:53] <balle_> how can i see what version of ubuntu i'm running?
[18:53] <Jack_Sparrow> UndertakerX2, defrag.. twice.. and I prefer the stand alone version of gparted for that level of work
[18:53] <Jack_Sparrow> !gparted
[18:53] <unimatrix9> seika , i see
[18:53] <ubotu> GParted is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/
[18:53] <Jack_Sparrow> balle_, lsb_release -a
[18:54] <unimatrix9> seika , whats the video card thats on the system?
[18:54] <LMJ> Hello the chan
[18:54] <seika> unimatrix9:  they also made me boot on SystemRescueCD 1.0.0 to see if it could boot on it
[18:54] <ghettokernel> Lectus: im using xfce
[18:54] <LMJ> I've setup a wifi connection from my Ubuntu Gutsy laptop to my D-link Wifi access point. From the AP, I see the laptop mac adress connected but I can't ping anything from the laptop, I suggest a conflit with the eth0 card. I guess packets want to go out with the unpluged eth0 card, is there a way to investigatee ?
[18:54] <Striking7> SliMM - sorry, computer.  Slang :-)
[18:54] <seika> the card is an XFX GeForce 8500 GT
[18:54] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow , and?
[18:55] <balle_> Jack_Sparrow it says 5.10.....
[18:55] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, that command should have returned a link to a pastebin.. which is what I wanted to see
[18:55] <beurself> where the nice ladies
[18:55] <balle_> Jack_sparrow though my cd says 6.06...
[18:55] <Lectus> ghettokernel: maybe you should ask at #xubuntu.
[18:55] <SliMM> Striking7: i must say i couldn't get into the bios and i started the live cd with the help of wubi
[18:55] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow, http://paste.stgraber.org/150
[18:55] <balle_> Jack_upgrade have i de-graded it?
[18:55] <UndertakerX2> Jack_Sparrow, must i burn and boot to the live cd?
[18:55] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow, you mean that one?
[18:55] <sluimers> beurself, define nice
[18:56] <Jack_Sparrow> UndertakerX2, yes  sluimers yes
[18:56] <Bo^Dick> hi
[18:56] <saladdin19> i just installed ubuntu, but i don't see the really cool ubuntu OS loading progress bar thing, just a black screen when i boot...(it was there during the liveCD boot, but not now after install)....any thoughts?
[18:56] <Decinoge> can we ask about emulators around here? or should i go some place else?
[18:56] <nekohayo> hey there, has anyone tried compiling epiphany 2.20?
[18:56] <UndertakerX2> jack_sparow, thanks
[18:56] <K-Rich> Striking7: i see no errors there :/
[18:56] <Striking7> SliMM - I have no experience with wubi, but I know what it is.
[18:56] <Bo^Dick> how do i update a program to the latest version?
[18:56] <michl> lol
[18:56] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, please dont feed the trollls
[18:56] <SliMM> Striking7: i don't know what it is, but it worked
[18:56] <firefeather> @Bo: Did you install it in Synaptic or Add/Remove programs?
[18:56] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow, okay
[18:56] <Striking7> K-Rich - try this: log out of X, then hit "ctrl+alt+f2", log in to the terminal, and use top or ps or the like to investigate what X is doing
[18:56] <Bo^Dick> firefeather: yup
[18:57] <unimatrix9> seika , i am looking around to see if i can find simular problems with your kind of hardware
[18:57] <TehSnarf> Alright, I'm having trouble ugprading "guidance-backends" for mythtv, getting error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59517/
[18:57] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, What distro or release are you using.. not ubuntu..
[18:57] <balle_> OMG i have 5.10!?
[18:57] <balle_> DAMN
[18:57] <Lectus> Bo^Dick: you can search the program in synaptic and it will offer an option to update if available
[18:57] <Striking7> SliMM - haha.  So are you able to boot from the live CD?
[18:57] <seika> thanks a lot unimatrix9
[18:57] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow, you mean gutsy?
[18:57] <K-Rich> Striking7: okay wish me luck
[18:57] <beurself4> k
[18:57] <Bo^Dick> Lectus: really
[18:57] <firefeather> @Bo: Update manager notifies you of updates but if you've downloaded a .deb file you trust, you can upgrade it by installing that .deb file.
[18:58] <prince_jammys> saladdin19: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy#Fix_Slow_boot.2Ffaulty_splash_screen
[18:58] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, that file was not from gutsy...
[18:58] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow, what do you mean not ubuntu, I use gutsy gibbon
[18:58] <Bo^Dick> firefeather: ok, the .deb method is the most attractive for me
[18:58] <Bo^Dick> firefeather: thanks
[18:58] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow, ??? how come?
[18:58] <unimatrix9> seika , what version of ubuntu did you try?
[18:58] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit                is that what you did?
[18:58] <saladdin19> i just installed ubuntu, but i don't see the really cool ubuntu OS loading progress bar thing, just a black screen when i boot...(it was there during the liveCD boot, but not now after install)....any thoughts? please
[18:59] <sluimers> yes
[18:59] <firefeather> @Bo: No problem. What specifically are you wanting to upgrade? I might be able to give you a specific tip about it.
[18:59] <seika> unimatrix9:  the 7.10, both live and alternate cds
[18:59] <Striking7> K-Rich: best of :-)
[18:59] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow, yes
[18:59] <melch> anyone have any idea how susspend to ram works
 Jack_Sparrow, http://paste.stgraber.org/150      is the link you gave.. or did you miss a couple of numbers at the end
[18:59] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow, and I got http://paste.stgraber.org/1509
[18:59] <Striking7> K-Rich - you may want to play with the "lsof" command.  It lists files that are open and which processes are opening them.
[19:00] <Striking7> Oops.
[19:00] <Striking7> too late :-
[19:00] <Striking7> \
[19:00] <SliMM> Striking7: i guess so
[19:00] <Jack_Sparrow> one sec
[19:00] <unimatrix9> seika : please give 8.04 a try, if that fails too, then give knoppix a testdrive
[19:00] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow, ah, sorry, I missed a 9
[19:00] <seika> ok unimatrix9 , i'll try the 8.04. But what is knoppix?
[19:00] <Housefly7k> whenever I put a cd in the computer i get an error message "Cannot eject volume" "You are not privileged to eject this volume"
[19:01] <unimatrix9> seika : i read here positive results with your motherboard
[19:01] <Housefly7k> Pressing okay, the message goes away and the cd works
[19:01] <unimatrix9> http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3441556&CatId=2014
[19:01] <Slart> saladdin19: many people have problems with the splash screen.. some have nvidia cards.. some use 64-bit ubuntu..
[19:01] <saladdin19> Slart, i am running the 64bit, with ati radeon 200m
[19:01] <Striking7> SliMM - ok, reboot your computer from the live CD, and make sure the iPod is unplugged.
[19:01] <asymptote> hi, I have a question about networking
[19:01] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, Mixing edgy feisty and unsupported repos and you say you are running gutsy ?  something isnt right
[19:02] <saladdin19> Slart, is it no possible to have the splash run with 64?
[19:02] <seika> unimatrix9: that mainboard on your link isn't the one i use
[19:02] <prince_jammys> saladdin19: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy#Fix_Slow_boot.2Ffaulty_splash_screen
[19:02] <Striking7> SliMM - if your hard disk has bad sectors you may not be able to install, but you can always try I guess.
[19:02] <unimatrix9> seika : knoppix is an debian livecd linux variant, its just to see if that works
[19:02] <unimatrix9> http://www.knoppix.org/
[19:02] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow, I upgraded from edgy to feisty to gutsy
[19:02] <asymptote> sometimes I see an ifconfig that produces "eth0.bak" - what is this connection ?
[19:02] <Slart> saladdin19: well.. let's blame it on the 64-bit os then.. =).. I haven't been able to use the splash screen since I upgraded to gutsy.. I don't miss it that much
[19:02] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, lsb-release -a    shows what
[19:02] <Bigg400> hey my webcam works in cheese although camorama does not detect it nor does camera monitor... both those apps are checking /dev/video0 .. how do I find out what my cam is using so I can correct this
[19:03] <asymptote> what is "eth0.bak"
[19:03] <lunaphyte_> for grub, in menu.lst, what is the difference between the string quiet on the kernel line and the string quiet on the line by itself?
[19:03] <Jack_Sparrow> lsb_release -a
[19:03] <recon> where is the hosts file?
[19:03] <unimatrix9> seika : other wise , i would not have a clue , google around on your motherboard issue and see if you can find some more insights...
[19:03] <unimatrix9> good luck
[19:03] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow, I don't have lsb-release
[19:03] <saladdin19> Slart, lol, yea i guess ur right, i wasn't able to get it to work in 64bit gentoo either, but the link will hopefully fix the reall sllloooowwww boot
[19:03] <Odd-rationale> recon: /etc/hosts
[19:03] <asymptote> what is "eth0.bak"
[19:03] <recon> Odd-rationale: k, thanks.
[19:03] <saladdin19> Slart, thanks for the link bro
[19:03] <Jack_Sparrow> typo.. sorry
[19:03] <Yacci> tritium: i couldn't get any help with my problem on ubuntu+1.  There is even a member on the ubuntu forum with this mainboard in his signature XD
[19:04] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow, at least, it doesn't work
[19:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Bigg400, glad to help
[19:04] <asymptote> Odd-rationale, what prompts ubuntu to make this file?
[19:04] <saladdin19> :D
[19:04] <asymptote> Odd-rationale, is it something that I do ?
[19:04] <Odd-rationale> asymptote: Usually upgrages..
[19:04] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, lsb_release -a         does not work
[19:04] <genii> asymptote: Likely it's an entry in your /etc/network/interfaces file that didn't get commented out properly
[19:04] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow No LSB modules are available.

[19:04] <FloodBot1> sluimers: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:05] <Slart> lunaphyte_: I think grub just puts all those lines together in the end anyway.. but I'm not sure.. there might be some deeper meaning to it
[19:05] <sluimers> FloodBotl, okay
[19:05] <asymptote> Odd-rationale, sometimes it's there, sometimes it isn't. Would this behaviour worry you ?
[19:05] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, ok.. better...
[19:05] <asymptote> genii, sometimes it's there, sometimes it isn't. Would this behaviour worry you ?
[19:05] <Odd-rationale> asymptote: nope.
[19:05] <genii> asymptote: No
[19:05] <brunner> does anyone have an opinion regarding the superior video streaming service (like ustream.tv)?
[19:05] <asymptote> Odd-rationale, thank you both
[19:05] <asymptote> genii, thank you both
[19:05] <fiXXXerMet> I am getting "Bus error" when trying to use dpkg-reconfigure
[19:06] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, I still dont have an answer for you...  and I need lunch  maybe then I will have an idea
[19:06] <fiXXXerMet> No other output and nothing that I've noticed in the logs
[19:06] <asymptote> Has anyone here compiled UrbanTerror 4.1 and gotten it to install?
[19:06] <esox> how can remove jackd 0.103 without removing all sound apps ?
[19:06] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow , okay, I'll be waiting
[19:07] <asymptote> Has anyone here compiled UrbanTerror 4.1 and gotten it to install?
[19:07]  * N3bunel saluta
[19:07] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow , I remember doing something with at-spi, I think it's somehow related to this error.. I'll go check the at-spi error
[19:07] <Slart> asymptote: we read it the first time.. don't repeat more often that about 5 minutes or so..
[19:07] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow , rebooting for the error, brb
[19:08] <asymptote> Slart, can you please stop being mean to me
[19:08] <Slart> asymptote: I'll try.. can't promise anything though =)
[19:08] <asymptote> Slart, I'm trying to get help so I can successfully use Ubuntu - surely you encourage users of this operating system
[19:08] <Yacci> Jack_Sparrow: there i can not get a help for my problem. Maybe in a year the situation has changed and i can use my atheros-card. Maybe i would try to install an older or a newer version of the kernel. Thank you for your help.
[19:08] <Seveas> asymptote, then don't try and ask us for support on things we don't support =)
[19:08] <CVD-PR> How to add something to the classpath?
[19:08] <Slart> asymptote: repeating your question every 60 secs doesn't help you.. people will just get annoyed and go out of their way not to help you..
[19:09] <revenge> Wow I never realized how long Wine takes to compile.
[19:09] <asymptote> Slart, there is no way you can speak for others
[19:09] <asymptote> Slart, please don't make assumptions about others unless you can see into the minds and thoughts of each and every user
[19:09] <Seveas> revenge, about 20 years for a good wine :)
[19:10] <Slart> asymptote: sigh... go ahead.. ignore me
[19:10] <asymptote> Seveas, people are constantly coming and going - don't tell me who can and cannot support something
[19:10] <revenge> I had to install about 9 Billion Different Packages just to get all the features I wanted
[19:10] <dwxreaper> can I run ubuntu just off cd
[19:10] <revenge> Now it is like, Compiling: Estimated Time: FOREVER
[19:10]  * revenge laughs
[19:10] <Seveas> asymptote, dude, you really don't want people to help you I guess :)
[19:10] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow, the error when I login -> Assistive technology support has been requested for this session, but the accessibility registry was not found. Please ensure that the AT-SPI package is installed. Your session has been started without assistive technology support.
[19:10] <revenge> yes Reaper.
[19:10] <asymptote> Seveas, some people in here may know more than you, and they may be in this channel for less than 60 seconds
[19:10] <DRebellion> dwxreaper, yes
[19:11] <CVD-PR> ??
[19:11] <katsudon> tets
[19:11] <katsudon> test
[19:11] <asymptote> Seveas, try to apply a little bit of logic to your thinking before you speak.
[19:11] <revenge> OMFG It is still compliling
[19:11] <up_the_irons> stefano_: i got my keyspan driver working in the regular ubuntu kernel, i posted how i did it: http://scie.nti.st/2008/3/13/keyspan-usb-to-serial-adapter-support-in-ubuntu
[19:11] <firefeather> asymptote: I think the ubuntu forums may be a bit more helpful on the subject; I haven't heard of the game and I don't know if others in the channel have but you will likely be able to find someone on the forums to help.
[19:11] <shishirm1> hey guys are there any modified ubuntu distros which have all the necessary packages like vlc,etc
[19:11] <revenge> How does Ubuntu compile so slow on such a Top End Machine.
[19:11] <Striking7> asymptote: What you're saying is true, but it's general etiquette to wait longer than that.  You couldn't have known that, but what you were doing is generally considered rude.
[19:12] <Slart> asymptote has left the building...
[19:12] <firefeather> asymptote: at least if you don't get any help here :)
[19:12] <Striking7> Well never mind then.
[19:12] <Seveas> revenge, wine is a large app
[19:12] <n2diy> I'm helping a friend put audio files on is Motorola i880 cell phone. I can read and write to the card with no problems, once Dapper sees that card. The problem is, it takes hours for Dapper to find the card in my reader. It is a standard Sandisk SD 256m card, Ideas?
[19:12] <revenge> Lol I know Seveas, but sometimes I am just like. WTF
[19:12]  * revenge Throws computer on the ground and sledges it.
[19:12] <LMJ> anyone is connected actually with a encrypted WPA2 wifi ? I'm trying that since 4 days without any result :-/
[19:12] <Seveas> revenge, have you ever tried compiling openoffice.org?
[19:12] <unimatrix9> seika : i was away for a few minutes , you are still around?
[19:12] <Slart> shishirm1: there is something called ultimate ubuntu.. I have only heard of it though.. can't recommend it or anything.. I think you can build your own image with all your packages if you want.. search for aptoncd
[19:13] <Seveas> LMJ, ubuntu 7.10?
[19:13] <LMJ> yes Seveas
[19:13] <LMJ> 64b
[19:13] <revenge> Have you ever tried compiling Samba
[19:13] <seika> yes unimatrix9
[19:13] <revenge> BWUAH HA HA HA
[19:13] <Seveas> revenge, often :)
[19:13] <Seveas> LMJ, broadcom card?
[19:13] <revenge> Damn.
[19:13] <revenge> Lol
[19:14] <revenge> I realized a great revelation this morning.
[19:14] <up_the_irons> LMJ: my thing says:  Infrastructure Mode, Freq 2.437 MHz, Rate 62 Mb/s, Strength 96%, Encrypted (WPA WPA2)
[19:14] <revenge> That revelation is: Sabayon is roadkill compared to Ubuntu
[19:14] <Seveas> !info sabayon
[19:14] <firefeather> @revenge how so?
[19:14] <Striking7> revenge: lol
[19:14] <ubotu> sabayon (source: sabayon): system administration tool to manage GNOME desktop settings. In component main, is optional. Version 2.20.1-0ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 151 kB, installed size 2784 kB
[19:14] <LMJ> no, I used to make it works on no protected Wifi connection
[19:14] <unimatrix9> seika, the other thing you could try, if you are an computer expert, is to disconnect all of the hardware from the motherboard and try an bare minimum setup, if you know what i mean
[19:14] <LMJ> atheros card irrc
[19:15] <Striking7> Silly ubotu, that's not what he meant....
[19:15] <Seveas> Striking7, ubotu knows ;)
[19:15] <revenge> Well the Sheer instability of Sabayon is staggering. The incompatibility with Hardware is astounding, Portage needs to just be buried and the overall scheme of Sabayon. I would give a -5
[19:15] <unimatrix9> seika : and just use motherboard, cdrom drive and see if it boots video card too afcause
[19:15] <CVD-PR> hello claspath?
[19:15] <Zina> salu quelqun peut m'aider a me rendre sur le forum du C++
[19:16] <unimatrix9> seika : dont do it if you dont know hardware that good
[19:16] <Seveas> !fr | Zina
[19:16] <ubotu> Zina: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[19:16] <nox-Hand> The nvVidia Ubuntu
[19:16]  * revenge Gets Evil Face
[19:16] <Striking7> revenge: let's not start an inter-distro flame fest :-)
[19:16] <revenge> I will kill Sabayon
[19:16] <seika> unimatrix9: i have already removed all my hdd ... all i have now in the mainboard, the dvd, th main hdd, the graphic card and a sound card (+ the ram)
[19:16] <nox-Hand> The nVidia Ubuntu ships with you can activate in Restrictede Drivers manager, is that XGL, or what is that?
[19:16] <Striking7> I didn't mind Sabayon when I tried it out, but I'll admit I'm not leaving Ubuntu any time soon.
[19:16] <revenge> lol alright striking.
[19:16] <Seveas> nox-Hand, it's the driver from nvidia.com
[19:16] <revenge> I tried Kubuntu, KDE really isn't that big of a show stopper.
[19:17] <revenge> I had a KDE+Compiz+Emerald+AWM... still wasn't thrilled.
[19:17] <nox-Hand> Seveas: Indeed, but does that driver classify as XGL, or is it something different it uses?
[19:17] <l815> anyone know how to fix open office fonts? they all look blurry/faded
[19:17] <revenge> Plus Gentoo seems to really hate WINE
[19:17] <Seveas> nox-Hand, XGL isn't a driver
[19:17] <revenge> and I mean !!!HATE!!!
[19:17] <Odd-rationale> revenge: compiz+awn works better with gnome
[19:17] <xb3rt> Who here runs secondlife on linux, and actually has it working
[19:17] <Seveas> revenge, this is a support channel, for offtopic chatter, please join #ubuntu-offtopic
[19:18] <revenge> ?
[19:18] <revenge> Righty O, But I can help. ^_^
[19:18] <Slart> l815: all the fonts? or just some?.. you can play with the antialias settings in .. system, preferences, appearance I think
[19:18] <firefeather> @l815: Is it only in open office that it looks that way?
[19:18] <unimatrix9> seika : you also treid pci=noacpi ?
[19:18] <Odd-rationale> xb3rt: there is a .deb package: http://getdeb.net/app/Second+Life
[19:18] <Seveas> revenge, that's great :)
[19:18] <firefeather> @l815: Cause if it's not then I would have said what Slart said ;)
[19:18] <xb3rt> Odd-rationale: how well does it work
[19:19] <seika> unimatrix9:  no, not this one. on another board they are sugesting me to disable the acpi in my BIOS
[19:19] <l815> firefeather, Slart, only Open Office, and when I try and modify the font settings, it doesn't change in OO
[19:19] <Odd-rationale> xb3rt: Don't know. Never tried it. But should work fine. You might to remove your current one that is not working.
[19:19] <Slart> l815: all the fonts? try deja vu
[19:19] <Slart> that one is pretty decent here
[19:19] <bastidrazor> if .xsession-errors show xgl not loaded but xorg.0.log shows xgl loading fine.. where am i going wrong?
[19:20] <l815> Slart, for system fonts?
[19:20] <unimatrix9> seika , yes if you know how to work with bios, first give the pci=noacpi a try
[19:20] <Slart> l815: no.. just in open office
[19:20] <seika> unimatrix9: i'm in the bios ... but can't find this ACPI
[19:20] <SliMM> Striking7: ok, so here are the boot-time errors: "[ %d.%ld] Buffer I/O error on device fd 0, logical block 0"
[19:21] <sfears> i have my /home directory on a separate partition.. how do i use the live cd to reinstall & use my existing /home folder
[19:21] <SliMM> %d and %ld being some ugly numbers
[19:21] <Striking7> fd 0... isn't that a floppy drive?
[19:21]  * Striking7 doesn't actually know
[19:21] <jif> yes
[19:21] <seika> it is
[19:21] <sfears> i do believe fd0 is floppy
[19:21] <Slart> fd0 was a floppy on the amiga.. =)
[19:22] <DRebellion> Striking7, yes
[19:22] <SliMM> it may be, but i have no floppy
[19:22] <Striking7> Ah. Thanks
[19:22] <Striking7> Hrm.
[19:22] <SliMM> in the floppy drive
[19:22] <SliMM> cool, huh?
[19:22] <unimatrix9> seika : you can look at that later , first test with the noapci
[19:22] <bieb> I need some help with sound. I have a Gateway desktop that is running U7.10, the sound card was recognized during install, it now sounds like any noise is coming through a broken speaker, lots of noise.
[19:22] <Striking7> SliMM - Ok.  Well for whatever reason it's acting up.  Unless you use it, try powering down the computer and just disconnecting the floppy for now.
[19:22]  * N3bunel brb
[19:22] <Striking7> Nobody really uses those anymore anyways, right? :-)
[19:23] <saladdin19> Slart: just rebooted, Holy **** what a difference, thanks man
[19:23] <SliMM> i would install a 5" floppy drive if i could
[19:23] <karllenz_> anyone know if getting a windows moblie phone to share an internet connection is possible
[19:23] <seika> unimatrix9: so i just try to start with the pci=noacpi option?
[19:23] <sfears> ha.. 5"
[19:23] <j2^> Ohkay.. I have now learned that "Use entire disk and set up encrypted LVM" on a 2.2TB Array is... time consuming *lol* I think i will rethink that.
[19:23] <sfears> do they even make those anymore
[19:23] <SliMM> but can't i just check if that really is the floppy drive?
[19:23] <Slart> saladdin19: huh? ah.. the splash thingy..
[19:23] <unimatrix9> yes
[19:23] <bieb> saladdin19: what did you do?
[19:23] <unimatrix9> When you boot from the installation CD, it gives you a boot menu with 6 options: "Start or install Ubuntu", "Start Ubuntu in safe graphics mode", "Install with driver update CD", ...
[19:23] <unimatrix9> Highlight the fist option, "Start or install Ubuntu" and then press F6. A text must appear in the screen that says "Boot Options: casper initrd=/casper/initrd.gz quiet splash --"
[19:23] <saladdin19> karllenz_: yes tis possible
[19:24] <SliMM> because i've never opened my computer
[19:24] <sfears> i have my /home directory on a separate partition.. how do i use the live cd to reinstall & use my existing /home folder
[19:24] <saladdin19> Slart, yea, but my boot time was in the minutes, now its down to seconds
[19:24] <karllenz_> saladdin19: any resource you can point me in the direction in?
[19:24] <SliMM> and i'd rather not
[19:24] <seika> unimatrix9:  so i just put this option after the two -- ?
[19:24] <steven_> join /#latex
[19:24] <saladdin19> bieb: for windows mobile or splash thingy
[19:24] <bieb> splash thing
[19:25] <seika> unimatrix9: can i do it two with the alternate cd? (my live cd is in another pc XD)
[19:25] <ere4si> sfears, the live cd's gparted will see that partition - just select it and then mount it as /home
[19:25] <Pici> steven_: /join #latex
[19:25] <saladdin19> bieb: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy#Fix_Slow_boot.2Ffaulty_splash_screen
[19:25] <mitch_> anyone want to help me with sleep
[19:25] <sfears> alright.. i just don't want to overwrite it ere4si
[19:25] <mitch_> and suspend
[19:25] <saladdin19> bieb: worked miracles
[19:25] <saladdin19> now if i could only figure it out for my gentoo
[19:25] <bieb> does it turn the splash screen off?
[19:25] <Striking7> SliMM - if you can get into your bios you could try disabling it from there.
[19:26] <saladdin19> on the contrary, it turns it on
[19:26] <unimatrix9> seika : here is an website so you can get some info on it all https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[19:26] <ere4si> sfears, it won't - unless you force it to be formatted
[19:26] <sfears> ok
[19:26] <bieb> hmm
[19:26] <SliMM> Striking7: well, could i install some new bios or smth like that?
[19:26] <saladdin19> karllenz_: do you have the latest version of windows mobile?
[19:26] <unimatrix9> seika : bookmark it so you can read it when needed
[19:26] <saladdin19> bieb: you need it off or on? or rather, are u experiencing slow boot?
[19:27] <seika> thanks!
[19:27] <El1> Hey guys anyone have some experience with wine? I've already got it up and running but my keyboard isn't working
[19:27] <Striking7> SliMM - I would not recommend installing a new BIOS - if something goes wrong your motherboard is a paperweight.
[19:27] <Bitmess> I enabled gutsy-backports in software sources now it wants to update a lot of packages. Should I do this? will it break something?
[19:27] <bieb> not slow boot.. just wondered what I missed, I came in in the middle of your convo  :D
[19:27] <Striking7> SliMM - much more dangerous than opening your computer up
[19:27] <SliMM> Striking7: i can't get into my BIOS for some reason :))
[19:27] <ADHDYoshi> woo!
[19:27] <Striking7> SliMM - what does it do?
[19:27] <unimatrix9> seika : hope you get it working, its a hard nut to crack
[19:28] <unimatrix9> :P
[19:28] <ADHDYoshi> Nearly got a heart attack running gparted but it works fine now ^^
[19:28] <El1> Hey guys anyone have some experience with wine? I've already got it up and running but my keyboard isn't working

[19:28] <SliMM> some error and then a DHCP thingie that does not work and waits for escape
[19:28] <unimatrix9> seika , i have to go now, good luck

[19:29] <GeorgeA> why's my keypad not working? the numlock key's on, but when i click '9' for example, the mouse moves up-right!!
[19:30] <rm> thanks
[19:30] <firefeather> @GeorgeA: Looks like you've got mouse keys on
[19:30] <GeorgeA> firefeather, how do i turn that off?
[19:30] <karllenz_> saladdin19: thank you , you have been very helpful
[19:30] <firefeather> GeorgeA: You can turn it off in accessibility options
[19:30] <saladdin19> karllenz_: pass it forward my friend, hopefully you can get it to work
[19:30] <karllenz_> sure
[19:30] <karllenz_> will do
[19:30] <GeorgeA> firefeather, it's not enabled (accessibility options)
[19:31] <Bitmess> Is it bad to install gutsy-backports
[19:31] <firefeather> GeorgeA: Dang...I'm not on my linux box right now. What does the error box say?
[19:31] <GeorgeA> firefeather, mmm i enabled it, and disabled mouse keys, and it worked.. thanks a lot :)
[19:31] <firefeather> GeorgeA: Oh, good. No problem! :)
[19:31] <nandasunu> how can I enable the window burning when I close a window?
[19:32] <nandasunu> I can't figure out how the annotate plugin settings work
[19:32] <GeorgeA> firefeather, it's quite weird, it's grayed out... but it's like enabled by default.. btw, it usually changes randomly alone.. I donno why
[19:32] <firefeather> nandasunu: You can do it under the Compiz Settings Manager under "Animations"
[19:32] <GeorgeA> firefeather, usually it works normally, then i stop using pc, and come back, and my numpad messes up!
[19:32] <firefeather> GeorgeA: You might check to see if it has a shortcut key associated. That's odd
[19:33] <anthony> Has anyone set up NIS on Ubuntu before?  I'm trying to transfer the configuration from a Fedora 4 box and don't really know how it works.
[19:33] <nandasunu> firefeather: I\ve tried adding the burn effect there and it doesn't do anything
[19:33] <GeorgeA> firefeather, in the keyboard shortcuts?
[19:33] <nandasunu> is there a specific way to get it working?
[19:33] <firefeather> nandasunu: Which list did you add it to?
[19:33] <firefeather> GeorgeA: I don't think so, I think it's there in accessibility.
[19:33] <hischild> nandasunu, you have to hold down a button/key for it
[19:33] <nandasunu> close
[19:34] <XXer> I just installing Win Home Server and I was trying to add a 500GB hd that was full of tv shows and mp3 but what happend was it made it into "not quite sure..like one big drive" and all the files on the 500GB drive were gone.  Is there anything I can do to get the files back.I know the hd was not reformated because it only took 2s for this to all happen
[19:34] <firefeather> GeorgeA: But go ahead and try keyboard shortcuts menu because I think I saw some extra accessibility options there
[19:34] <GeorgeA> firefeather, I am checking.
[19:34] <GeorgeA> firefeather, nothing about shortcuts in accessibility.
[19:35] <firefeather> nandasunu: Could it be that you have it in the list of random animations rather than associating a window with it? (Sorry if I'm not being helpful)
[19:35] <artenius> nandasunu: look in ccsm, animations, goto the minimize tab and make sure "burn" is at the top
[19:35] <artenius> nandasunu: it must be at the top of the list in there
[19:35] <firefeather> GeorgeA: Try the Keyboard Shortcuts menu then (or was that what you were just checking)?
[19:35] <archman> guys anyone knows of any rar password crack tools? I'm slowly starting to #&#$#%....!!!
[19:35] <GeorgeA> firefeather, yeah that's what i was checking.. couldn't find anything there either...
[19:36] <nandasunu> artenius, its at the top, but nothing
[19:36] <nandasunu> do I need to set some window settings?
[19:36] <artenius> what does it say for window type?
[19:36] <nandasunu> the other effects have a bunch of stuff under "window match"
[19:36] <bastid_raZor> when i try to enable compiz i get xgl is not present.. in my xorg logs i see xgl module being successfully loaded.. here is my xorg log and .xsession-error http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59520/
[19:36] <testic> I am a new Ubuntu user and I am having problems ejecting a CD. I have pressed the eject button on the drive, I have right-clicked the cd-rom desktop item and chosen "eject", I have run the "eject" command, all to no avail. any help?
[19:36] <nandasunu> (I remember this being a lot easier with beryl)
[19:36] <hischild> testic, are you running the live cd?
[19:36] <firefeather> GeorgeA: I'm not sure then. If I were in your situation, unless nobody else knows here, the forums might yield some info.
[19:36] <kosak> reboot then eject
[19:37] <ScorpKing> testic: try sudo eject
[19:37] <kosak> that too
[19:37] <artenius> nandasunu: I meant window match yes, it should have the same entries as the others
[19:37] <GeorgeA> firefeather, you put me on the right track, am currently googling the accessibility issue :)
[19:37] <testic> hischild, no, this is a normal bootup. the CD that is in is one I was using in Windows about 10 minutes ago
[19:37] <firefeather> testic: Only do sudo eject if you're not on the live CD
[19:37] <nandasunu> ok, I'll try copying the settings
[19:37] <firefeather> GeorgeA: Thanks. I'm glad I can help
[19:37] <SliMM> should gparted output the errors to stdout / stderr?
[19:37] <testic> ScorpKing, sudo eject does nothing
[19:37] <bieb> testic: is there something that is keeping the Cd mounted?  ie, file explorer
[19:37] <ScorpKing> testic: any error messages?
[19:38] <testic> bieb, I have no idea. the first thing I wanted to do after bootup was to eject the cd
[19:38] <kosak> might need to > to.txt ?
[19:38] <testic> ScorpKing, no error messages at all
[19:38] <archman> any rar password recovery tools for linux?
[19:38] <GeorgeA> firefeather, at first i found a solution that said i need to use gconf-editor and check some keyboard issues and numlock stuff there, but i think that worked by chance :) because it didn't always work. This fixed it, now I just need to find the source. :)
[19:38] <opera159> test
[19:38] <nandasunu> artenius: Its working now :), I just copied the window match stuff from the other effects
[19:38] <nandasunu> thanks
[19:38] <bieb> testic: are there any windows currently open on your system?
[19:38] <wpk> archman: for dos, under dosemu
[19:38] <artenius> nandasunu: good :) you're welcome.   I had problems with that too at first
[19:38] <archman> wpk: what's the program name?
[19:39] <kosak> whats the name of the small amarok player ? minirock/
[19:39] <kosak> ?
[19:39] <testic> bieb, I have a few windows open, would you like me to list them?
[19:39] <ScorpKing> testic: weird.. it might be faster to just reboot and take out the cd then, but that won't show you why it's not ejecting.
[19:39] <wpk> archman: use google
[19:39] <firefeather> GeorgeA: Just a thought; do you plug in or unplug any hardware (especially a USB keyboard) in between times it happens?
[19:39] <nandasunu> the old dialogue used to be much simpler
[19:39] <kosak> i did
[19:39] <bieb> yeah
[19:39]  * SliMM is going to eat smth and will be right back
[19:39] <bieb> SliMM: who is smth
[19:39] <GeorgeA> firefeather, nope, it's mostly a server, and I haven't touched it in like 2 weeks :)
[19:39] <artenius> nandasunu: if you have any other problems in compiz, try asking in #compiz-fusion | lots of people there to help
[19:39] <testic> ScorpKing, this is true, however I am currently downloading a big Ubuntu update and I was hoping to get some stuff done while I wait :)
[19:39] <archman> wpk: dos emulation???
[19:39] <SliMM> bieb: smth ~= something
[19:39] <kosak> cool for the compiz!
[19:40] <ScorpKing> testic: run dmesg | tail and see if there's any errors in there
[19:40] <bieb> SliMM: ok  :)
[19:40] <firefeather> GeorgeA: That's odd. Let me know if you find anything then.
[19:40] <nandasunu> artenius, I will, thanks
[19:40] <GeorgeA> firefeather, sure thing!

[19:41] <testic> ScorpKing, dmesg shows a few errors that may have something to do with it, would you like me to paste them?
[19:41] <ScorpKing> testic: the run sudo umount /media/mountpoint and that should give you more feedback.

[19:43] <bmk789> how do i create an encrypted partition?
[19:43] <testic> I do not believe the CD is actually mounted; "mount | grep cd" returns nothing
[19:43] <GeorgeA> firefeather, am starting to think maybe 'ctrl' key being pressed a lot, because i usually vnc to this pc, and i use google desktop, so i use ctrl a lot, it could be if i hold ctrl a lot it starts it.
[19:43] <ScorpKing> testic: do you only have one hard drive?
[19:43] <wpk> archman: use dos program for password cracking under dosemu
[19:44] <testic> ScorpKing, there are 2 hard drives, though I am not sure if the second is mounted
[19:44] <GeorgeA> firefeather, or something related to that!
[19:44] <firefeather> GeorgeA: That might do it, esp. if you push control and decide against it, thus pushing "Ctrl" a lot without anything else before or after.
[19:44] <ScorpKing> testic: just mount
[19:44] <GeorgeA> firefeather, yeah most likely.. at least now i know how to deactivate it :)
[19:44] <ScorpKing> testic: if you pipe it to grep you might miss it
[19:45] <testic> ScorpKing, well I tried just mount, and it doesnt show anything that looks like a cd drive
[19:45] <firefeather> GeorgeA: Sounds good. Let me know if you have any more questions about it.
[19:45] <wxPython> who makes the .deb packages of the gnome-panel package?
[19:45] <GeorgeA> firefeather, Thank you for your cooperation :)
[19:45] <ScorpKing> testic: those errors from your pastebin is cdrom errors afaik
[19:46] <firefeather> GeorgeA: No problem :)
[19:46] <ScorpKing> wxPython: aptitude show <package> and see who is the maintainer
[19:46] <wxPython> ScorpKing i'm on Windows ATM
[19:46] <ScorpKing> heh, ok
[19:46] <benpicco> hi, I need libqt2 and some related dev packets, but I can't find them in the ubuntu repos - can I use the debian repos, too?
[19:47] <testic> ScorpKing: Here is the output from mount, if its of any use: http://pastebin.com/dc45004b
[19:47] <wxPython> ScorpKing i am not able to boot to Linux ATM so please help me out here
[19:47] <Odd-rationale> !debian | benpicco
[19:47] <ubotu> benpicco: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[19:47] <Jack_Sparrow> benpicco, not a good idea... what are you trying to install in the first place
[19:47] <GeorgeA> I have another issue, I have Ubuntu on my laptop, and the wireless keeps on messing up, so it connects to my router (wifi), then after a certain period, it disconnects and the only way to reconnect is to reboot! (happened to me in uni as well) at first it was bad drivers but then I updated it, and got better, but now it's back to being weird.. anyone know why? (I have an HP 9690)
[19:48] <wxPython> ScorpKing please do aptitude show gnome-panel and please tell me the output
[19:48] <ScorpKing> testic: yeah it's not mounted and must be hdb then. i'm not sure if eject has a force option. seems like you will have to wait until you reboot
[19:48] <ScorpKing> wxPython: ok one sec
[19:48] <benpicco> Jack_Sparrow: I need the qt2 libraries an the header files to get an old programm compiled and running
[19:48] <ScorpKing> wxPython: Maintainer: Ubuntu Desktop Team<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[19:48] <testic> ScorpKing, well OK then, I have about 20 minutes to wait for this upgrade, I will get the CD out then, thanks anyway
[19:49] <ScorpKing> testic: np
[19:49] <wxPython> ScorpKing thanks
[19:49] <ScorpKing> wxPython: yw
[19:49] <Jack_Sparrow> benpicco, chasing dependencies on progrmas you compile yourself is a never ending battle..  Hope you have a backup if you try debian repos
[19:50] <sari982> any lady can speak english pls
[19:50]  * ScorpKing remebers the days before he had internet when he had to chased dependencies.. not nice
[19:51] <benpicco> any experience with using the debian repos so far?
[19:51] <Jack_Sparrow> sari982, not in here.. thanks
[19:52] <Jack_Sparrow> benpicco, All bad...
[19:52] <chazco> Is there a way to undelete something in ext2? The system hasnt been touched since...
[19:52] <benpicco> Jack_Sparrow: what happened?
[19:53] <ScorpKing> chazco: yes. google for it
[19:53] <Jack_Sparrow> benpicco, mismatched versions and just broke things in general..  it is strongly not advised.
[19:53] <SliMM> ha, an error
[19:54] <SliMM> Unable to open /dev/fd0 read-write (Read-only file system).  /dev/fd0 has been opened read-only.
[19:54] <SliMM> Unable to open /dev/fd0 read-write (Read-only file system).  /dev/fd0 has been opened read-only.
[19:54] <sinbox> if I get 6.06LTS Desktop will that allow me to install the server only or will I have to download another ISO?
[19:54] <Jack_Sparrow> benpicco, if you only need one file you may get lucky.. but one leads to two and more dependencies and trouble
[19:54] <Itaku> !paste | SliMM
[19:54] <ubotu> SliMM: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined 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 channel topic)
[19:54] <Odd-rationale> chazco: Some links to get you started:    http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html   http://glandium.org/blog/?p=184
[19:54] <frank_> benpicco: maybe it would be better to build libqt2 from source ftp://ftp.trolltech.com/qt/source/
[19:54] <hischild> sinbox, you can install the base only system and then install the server from the internet with it ...
[19:54] <sinbox> k thanks hischild
[19:54] <Jack_Sparrow> sinbox, desktop is desktop..  server is server.. alternate should let you do both
[19:54] <benpicco> Jack_Sparrow: maybe I better should try old ubuntu repos?
[19:55] <genii> sinbox: The regular livecd of ubuntu installs non-server version with gnome desktop. The alternate cd installs server version with no kind of window managers
[19:55] <xalanthyr> hi, can anybody tell me how to play internet radio on ubuntu?
[19:55] <Jack_Sparrow> benpicco, better choice but downgrading has its own issues
[19:55] <SliMM> sorry for double paste
[19:55] <Jack_Sparrow> !downgrade
[19:55] <ubotu> Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[19:55] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, you can install the baseonly from the desktop one ... and then install the server meta package which it'll download from the internet
[19:56] <giant> my apache2, php5, mysql, and torrentflux 2.3 suddenly started segfaulting the apache when a php page is run on Ubuntu 7.10
[19:56] <genii> sinbox: If you already have desktop version and want server version, use command tasksel  and then choose to install ubuntu-LAMP
[19:56] <Jack_Sparrow> hischild, the base install of desktop has full gnome etc.. I thought that is what he wanted to avoid
[19:56] <bmk789> xalanthyr: rhythmbox should be able to
[19:56] <giant> anyone have any experience with this? I've checked log files and searched the internet
[19:56] <xb3rt> channels
[19:56] <angusb> how do I add a username and password to MySQL?
[19:56] <hischild> Jack_Sparrow, when i installed mine using base only, what i ended up with was really just a base only ... no graphical stuff what so ever
[19:57] <Jack_Sparrow> hischild, Odd
[19:57] <SliMM> Striking7: so i'll just wait some more
[19:57] <xb3rt> How do i get this error message I keep getting from sudo apt-get update                         W: GPG error: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com gutsy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY<PHONE_NUMBER>7EE263
[19:58] <sinbox> thanks Jack_Sparrow and genii too for the extra info, I need the 6.06 for some older machines not this one :)
[19:58] <xalanthyr> bmk789: rhythmbox doesn't work...
[19:58] <bmk789> xalanthyr: exaile, banshee?
[19:59] <bmk789> is anyone else using encrypted / and swap?

[20:00] <chazco> ScorpKing - Odd-rationale - I just powered off the computer without unmounting the partition (its not root)... seems like most of it is still there
[20:00] <Odd-rationale> chazco: I never done the process myself. You're on your own. Good Luck!
[20:00] <Marat_Mkrttschja> hallo
[20:00] <Jack_Sparrow> chazco, If that is all you did fsck should fix it
[20:00] <Jack_Sparrow> !fsck
[20:00] <ubotu> fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[20:01] <chazco> Jack_Sparrow - I deleted a folder by accident... i tried force power off in the hope that the changes hadnt happened yet
[20:01] <xb3rt> jimcooncat: thank you
[20:01] <ScorpKing> chazco: that's still something i have to perfect myself. ntfs/fat is easy but my days of using M$ is over. good luck

[20:19] <Jack_Sparrow> !envy
[20:19] <ubotu> envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver »

[20:20] <xphisher> okay well.. any suggestions on how to get the supported drivers ?
[20:20] <laura> I did not find in the documentation how to do it, nor in google
[20:21] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, With the odd problems you seem to have would you consider resetting gnome back to defaults?
[20:22] <Jack_Sparrow> xphisher, Usually you just need to enable restricted drivers from the menu.. You get into problems when you use things like envy.. although they are working hard to improve it.. it still breaks many systems
[20:22] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow,  A) how do I do that? B) without losing all those precious files I have?
[20:22] <r00t_> LMJ: Still there?
[20:22] <SliMM> Striking7: i have ~700 items in /dev
[20:22] <sluimers> files and programs
[20:23] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, not losing your files or installed program.. just launchers and things on your menuus etc
[20:23] <SliMM> Striking7: maybe that is the problem
[20:23] <sluimers> okay... errr... what's the best way to do it and how can I get everything back to normal the quickest way?
[20:23] <Jack_Sparrow> sluimers, See if this is something you might want to try  http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/
[20:24] <sluimers> Jack_Sparrow, thanks
