[17:46] <danand> davi1 - i would set the number of mounts between your disks being checked to a sensible value - sudo tune2fs -c 30 -i 30 ....
[17:46] <corinne_> k, I figured it out
[17:46] <sahak> Hello
[17:46] <stinger05> from where can i download my modem driver for ubuntu ?
[17:47] <Sgeo> Unable to connect: Resource temporarily unavailable
[17:47] <stinger05> which website ?
[17:47] <Sgeo> It didn't work
[17:47] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, that is one messed up partition table..  I am missing the small linux partition that should have been sdb1
[17:47] <SpK> hey
[17:47] <SpK> do i need a anti virus?
[17:47] <sahak> Comment field in the /usr/share/applications/nm-editor.desktop file says "Edits the wireless networks used in Network Manager"
[17:47] <Jack_Sparrow> SpK, No
[17:47] <Jezz> hi
[17:47] <dep> stinger05: if there is a driver available for it, it likely is in use or available from the Restricted Driver Manager utility under System -> Administrator -> Restricted Driver Manager
[17:47] <sahak> is that grammatically correct?
[17:47] <Jezz> what is GTK?
[17:47] <Sgeo> It said "AT phone found [info] Switching /dev/ptmx to P2K mode"
[17:47] <Jack_Sparrow> !virus | SpK
[17:47] <ubotu> SpK: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[17:47] <Sgeo> Then "Unable to connect"
[17:48] <SpK> how do i install themes?
[17:48] <sahak> I think it should be "Edit wireless networks used in Network Manager"
[17:48] <Jezz> yeah i want to know too how to install themes
[17:48] <subzeroHusky> is there any chance people know how to connect to a windoes sysem as a remote desktop
[17:48] <stinger05> dep: im using linux mint 4.0 kde
[17:48] <Jezz> and what is GTK, do you need that?
[17:48] <twinkie_adict> how stable is 8.04 alpha 6 atm ? is it worth upgdrading to early or should i wait for it to final next month
[17:48] <SpK>  how do i install themes?
[17:48] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, that 3 GB partition was the partition of ntfs and i converted to linux with gparted
[17:48] <sarthor> :P
[17:48] <danand> !themes | SpK

[17:48] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: that's right, there is no number 0
[17:48] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[17:48] <dep> stinger05: I can't really help you then, I'm not familiar how their system works, keep in mind this is an Ubuntu channel
[17:49] <jnkq> downloads themes from internet
[17:49] <SpK> how do i install themes?
[17:49] <Jezz> and then
[17:49] <Jack_Sparrow> !themes
[17:49] <Sgeo> [info] Phone answer: OK
[17:49] <Sgeo> [error] Unable to connect
[17:49] <stinger05> ok thx anyway dude
[17:49] <stinger05> :)
[17:49] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, and there is one grub folder and also menu.lst file :O
[17:49] <dep> subzeroHusky: Applications -> Internet -> Terminal Server Client, it is installed by default
[17:49] <SpK> ok, i downloaded the theme, now what?
[17:49] <Jezz> you need GTK
[17:49] <subzeroHusky> dep commands
[17:50] <Jezz> but i dunno what that is lol
[17:50] <SpK> how do i get gtk?
[17:50] <danand> SpK - see the last link in the factoid - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[17:50] <dep> subzeroHusky: what, like command line commands? rdesktop
[17:50] <Jack_Sparrow> sarthor, I need to take a break.. That is one messed up partition table...  I'll be back later but not sure we are going to untangle all of that
[17:50] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, that partition have these files http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60181/
[17:51] <Matthe1> dep: I'll be installing a Geforce 7600GT when it arrives and want to get a widescreen LCD, the one I'm looking at has a native resolution of 1680x1050 or somesuch, I'm unsure of Ubuntu's support for this and don't want to spend x hundred pounds on something that doesn't work!
[17:51] <ljlolel> when i open a new window from the terminal, how do i set it's title?
[17:51] <SpK> thank you so much!
[17:51] <sarthor> Jack_Sparrow, ok.. i will wait here.. and you did great for me.. Thank you a lot
[17:51] <SliMM> Exteris: sorry, afk; well, it freezes if i have my ipod plugged in
[17:51] <soundray> sarthor: I'm out of ideas, sorry. I doubt that your Windows installation can be rescued. You may have to back up your user data and reinstall
[17:51] <SpK> how do i install beryl 3d?
[17:51] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray, we are seeing the same things.. not sure how to proceed...
[17:51] <Jack_Sparrow> !beryl
[17:51] <ubotu> Beryl has been merged with Compiz to form Compiz-Fusion.  New Beryl installs are discouraged. See also !compiz
[17:52] <dep> Matthel: I'm currently on a widescreen machine running the nvidia drivers, support is there for it in both open source drivers (but no 3d support there) or with nvidia's drivers as well
[17:52] <Exteris> SliMM, try starting it from a terminal, with rhythmbox
[17:52] <Exteris> and check the output when it crashes
[17:52] <subzeroHusky> i am trying ot connect to a realvnc
[17:52] <Matthe1> dep: brilliant, only one hurdle left before buying it now then: my wife....
[17:52] <SliMM> good point, never thought of seeing the actula errors
[17:52] <XB23> guys, what would make gcc run slow when normally it runs fast?
[17:52] <dep> Matthel: I can't really help you there, perhaps more aggressive compiler options?
[17:52] <soundray> sarthor: the easiest thing might be to get a third hard disk, make it the first in your system and install Windows on there.
[17:53] <sarthor> soundray, ok. but i am afraid that i dont want to loose my data, While i have tried a lot to destroy that, but thats still save :P
[17:53] <subzeroHusky> on ubunt i got the filesystem for the realvnc for linux x64 is that right
[17:54] <SliMM> Exteris: well, no message, do window doesn't even appear, it only shows in system monitor, eating 65% of my CPU
[17:54] <soundray> sarthor: now that you've fixed the ntfs, you can backup all your data using Ubuntu. I'm specifically suggesting that the third-harddisk option will keep your existing data safe
[17:54] <danand> SpK - if you did a standard install of ubuntu 7.10 then you chould have compiz installed by default - see about installing compizconfig-settings-manager to configure how it works. Also see System -> Preferences -> Appearance, then last tab "Visual Effects" to enable it
[17:55] <SliMM> Exteris: "the window", sorry, i don't know how that "do" got there :))
[17:55] <sarthor> soundray, ok.. i have that arrange of hard disk. Thank you both,
[17:55] <XB23> how can i find out if my CPU is overloaded?
[17:56] <dep> XB23: run 'top' from a command line, it will tell you the CPU usage of various things, this is probably the most intuitive way in my opinion
[17:56] <danand> XB23 - use the command "top" to see cpu and memory stats
[17:56] <lordleemo> XB23: htop
[17:56] <XB23> Cpu(s): 18.3%us, 66.3%sy,  0.0%ni,  0.0%id,  0.0%wa,  3.7%hi, 11.7%si,  0.0%st
[17:56] <XB23> is that overloaded?
[17:56] <Exteris> SliMM, I don't really like rhythmbox myself, and i don't have an ipod so i cant reproduce the problem, so maybe you should file a bug.
[17:57] <subzeroHusky> ubunt use the x64 or x86
[17:57] <SliMM> Exteris: what do you use?
[17:57] <davi1> how do disable the check disk option at boot?
[17:58] <Kate_mins> i installed ubuntu while my computer was not connected to the internet now my synaptic dosent have all packages ? how i can fix this problem ?
[17:58] <Exteris> SliMM, I use Listen at the moment, but there are a plethora of available options
[17:58] <danand> XB23 - errr .... kinda depends on what your system is doing at the moment.... what processes are using up the cpu cycles??
[17:58] <Exteris> SliMM, wow i actually got to use that word :p
[17:58] <danand> davi1 - did you not see the previous answers to your question ?
[17:58] <Exteris> SliMM, you could try Quod-Libet Exaile Amarok Banshee
[17:58] <Exteris> or another one
[17:59] <dep> Kate_mins: Open synaptic, and go to Settings -> Repositories
[17:59] <danand> davi1 - i would set the number of mounts between your disks being checked to a sensible value - sudo tune2fs -c 30 -i 30 /device_name
[17:59] <SliMM> Exteris: well, how can i make rhythmbox as it was when i installed ubuntu?
[18:00] <hardy64> hi, I'm trying to rip CDs using Soundjuicer. I have activated the MP3 Output profile, but I can't select from the list. Anyone know why?
[18:00] <dep> Kate_mins: and you should be able to check off the repositories ('repos') you want. The CD should be listed at the bottom, I'd remove the checkmark there. YOu can also select a preferred download site for added performance if you can find one near you.
[18:00] <SliMM> Exteris: i.e. delete all the settings & stuff
[18:00] <SpK> how do i screenshot?
[18:00] <dep> Kate_mins: once done, hit ok and click 'reload' to download the package information
[18:00] <SliMM> SpK: print screen button
[18:01] <davi1> danand: but the problem is that ubuntu looks for a disk that i removed and takes like 5 minutes to continue
[18:01] <Exteris> SliMM, sudo apt-get purge rhythmbox && sudo apt-get install rhythmbox
[18:01] <Exteris> !purge
[18:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about purge - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[18:01] <AldarHawk> just sudo su -
[18:01] <julien_> mon problème est résolu, je sais pas pourquoi, ca fait que 3 heures que je cherche...
[18:01] <danand> Kate_mins - alternatively you could edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file by hand.... just remove the "#" marks from in front of the repositories you want to use
[18:01] <AldarHawk> then you can just enter in what ever commands you want :D
[18:01] <SliMM> Exteris: thanks
[18:01] <subzeroHusky> on ububtu is it x64 or x86
[18:01] <Peanut> *ugh* it now takes over 10 minutes to boot my Ubuntu 7.10 and that's on a two week old dual core 3.0GHz machine - I fear the harddisk is dying, but how to test? There's no error messages in /var/log.
[18:02] <AldarHawk> x64 is 64 bit x86 is 32 bit
[18:02] <SpK> how do i hack, every linux user is a hacker
[18:02] <SliMM> Exteris: i love the fact that it is so simple, i need nothing more, and if i really need smth else, i will have a reason to learn python
[18:02] <hackeron> hey, can someone please tell me how to record from the right channel of line-in from the command line? - I tried arecord -c1 but that only records the left channel - I need the right one only :(
[18:02] <Peanut> And X won't even start, which makes it a bit hard to Google :-(
[18:02] <AldarHawk> SpK: that is a very general generalization
[18:03] <Exteris> SliMM, Listen has some nice features, for instance last.fm integration, wikipedia
[18:03] <SpK> is every linux user a hacker???
[18:03] <AldarHawk> not all Linux Users are Hackers...just like all Hackers are not Linux users
[18:03] <danand> davil - in that case check to see if the disk you removed is listed in /etc/fstab. If it is, make a backup copy of the file first, then edit the file to remove the reference to the disk
[18:03] <AldarHawk> also...What do YOU call a hacker?
[18:03] <subzeroHusky> AldarHawk how do you know what i am runnig
[18:03] <AldarHawk> do you go by the media hype?

[18:03] <AldarHawk> subzeroHusky I do not
[18:04] <subzeroHusky> is there a way to look
[18:04] <danand> SpK - hacker = good person that fixes code, cracker = bad person that breaks into your machine
[18:04] <AldarHawk> but I know people who use Linux and Windows to hack
[18:04] <AldarHawk> danand: generally yes

[18:06] <subzeroHusky> is there a way to tell if my system is x86 or x64
[18:06] <ensi> subzeroHusky: uname -a
[18:07] <Conexio1> Hey guys, I was wondering, how do you change the effect that is used when an application closes? I've seen interesting fire or color effects, but I can't find anything like that in the CompizConfig settings manager

[18:07] <subzeroHusky> well i ma trying ot get a file from realvnc and i am not sure what one i need
[18:08] <danand> Conexio1 - you might want to look at the plug ins that compiz has loaded.
[18:08] <stinger05> hello there, i need a modem driver (for ubuntu), model name: actiontec MD56ORD V92 MDC
[18:08] <Ballena> Does anyone use irssi-proxy here?

[18:09] <muthym> somebody help please..i already installed nvidia driver but my screen is still generic..
[18:09] <ensi> muthym: did you configure your X server?
[18:09] <MasterShrek> muthym did you restart your xserver?
[18:10] <muthym> yes.. so many times.. i used envy..
[18:10] <danand> Conexio1 - i'm no expert on compiz, but open ccsm, click on preferences then look under the plugin list tab... hopefully that will help you out some
[18:10] <MasterShrek> ugh
[18:10] <MasterShrek> !envy | muthym
[18:10] <ubotu> muthym: 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 »

[18:10] <Winball> Envy is risky
[18:10] <ensi> muthym: i suggest you manually hack your xorg.conf
[18:10] <MasterShrek> muthym im sure most here would agree with me envy is a bad bad program, it will eventually break your machine almost guarenteed
[18:10] <omar> hello people
[18:11] <omar> i wanted to know something
[18:11] <muthym> so.. what shall i do.. uninstall envy?
[18:11] <omar> i have installed ubuntu 7.10 on my machine
[18:11] <omar> i dont have opengl support

[18:14] <athlon> so i install with sudo apt-get install gnome-sound-recorder

[18:14] <RequinB9> Hi, sorry for a noob question, but i'm failing at getting the right system-time
[18:14] <MasterShrek> athlon sudo apt-get sound-recorder     probably
[18:14] <Winball> athlon No. You find it under Applications-Sound&Video ?

[18:16] <dep> RequinB9: have you set up ubuntu to automatically synchronize with a NTP server?
[18:16] <RequinB9> MasterShrek - ok, but it's probably better to usethe GUI
[18:16] <MasterShrek> athlon sorry, sudo apt-get install sound-recorder
[18:16] <dt84> dep: thanks, I'll look into it. This reference includes permissions for FAT32? I have WinXP installed on this computer, and I want its directories hidden to the new user I just opened.
[18:16] <SpK> i booted ubuntu with live cd, but i want to install it, how ???
[18:16] <Winball> athlon What happens if you just write gnome-sound-recorder ?
[18:17] <RequinB9> dep - well, i went to the adjust date+time (date and time settiings) GUI
[18:17] <danand> athlon - try to search with the package in aptitude or in synaptics.... but its sudo apt-get install ....
[18:17] <Cann0n> Spk, partition your hd
[18:17] <RequinB9> dep - and it gave me an option to install NTP, i said ok, and now i try to syncrhonize with a server but it doesnt' work
[18:17] <dep> dt84: fat32 permissions are going to be a problem, the fat32 spec doesn't support them properly
[18:17] <RequinB9> dep - and sorry for the !doesn't work, i really don't know
[18:18] <dep> RequinB9: no worries, have you selected a time server yet?
[18:18] <Cann0n> you can take a shortcut by deleting all the existing partitions, and then simply select the option to use largest unpartitioned space

[18:21] <dep> RequinB9: woops, sorry, try 'ntpdate ntp.ubuntulinux.org'
[18:21] <RequinB9> dep - no servers can be used... exiting
[18:22] <Varitech> hello
[18:22] <MasterShrek> fbc i know ktorrent can do that stuff
[18:22] <AldarHawk> my ath_pci module is not loading correctly since my laptop battery died on me this morning and when i run a lshw -C network it comes up UNCLAIMED (http://pastebin.com/d2ade81ea)
[18:22] <Varitech> hello:quit
[18:22] <Nex> How would I go about using apt-get to install new plug-ins for compiz on gutsy?
[18:22] <RequinB9> bind() fails: permission denied
[18:22] <usr13> What does it take to run 3com 3c905c ethernet device?
[18:23] <steven22> Good afternoon anyone, could anyone help me figure a way out on how i can use my usb audio to work with firefox
[18:23] <fbc> MasterShrek,  yeah but I don't want to run the KDE subsystem just for one app.. I just saw screen shots of deluge and I think it might work out..
[18:23] <Cann0n> Nex, sudo apt-get install compiz-fusion-plugins-extras
[18:23] <MasterShrek> fbc yea ive heard deluge is good, ive never used it
[18:24] <Cann0n> and i think instead of extras, you can do -main as well Nex
[18:24] <dep> RequinB9: ok, I'm forgetting random things, sorry, been a while since I've messed with NTP, try sudo'ing that command, and it should reply that the NTP socket is in use
[18:24] <fbc> steven22, you just got to get it to work, period.
[18:24] <fbc> steven22, once it works with linux firefox will follow.
[18:24] <steven22> fbc, what do u mean? my usb audio works but flash is comming out of my internal speakers
[18:25] <fbc> steven22, ahh..
[18:25] <fbc> steven22, now we are getting to the root problem.
[18:25] <Nex> Cann0n: Thanks man :)
[18:25] <steven22> fbc, yeaah sorry haha
[18:26] <Cann0n> Nex, i think gutsy comes with them all. you may end up having to locate them as an actual package on a  website. i'd be interested in finding out. im a big fan of compiz
[18:26] <fbc> steven22, OK, so firefox uses the internal audio card while the other stuff uses the usb audio.. hmm, Have you tried going into the audio preferences and seting your default audio output source?
[18:27] <sajid> Is there anyway to prevent OpenSSH from disconnecting an remote connection after 1-2 minutes of idleness?
[18:28] <steven22> fbc, i've tried the command asoundconf
[18:28] <steven22> fbc, and i tried to reset the default to the usb
[18:28] <MasterShrek> steven22 try running: aoss firefox    from a terminal and see if the sound works
[18:28] <jane22> steven22: are you on hardy?
[18:28] <RequinB9> dep - sorry, was away looking at a man page, could you repeat what you just said
[18:28] <steven22> jane22, im on gutsy
[18:28] <fbc> steven22, how about disabling your internal sound card in the bios that way firefox will not have a choice.
[18:29] <steven22> mastershrek, i'll try that
[18:29] <steven22> fbc, how do i disable the internal sound on the bios
[18:30] <usr13> what package would I load to get 3c95x  (driver for 3com 905c ethernet device)?
[18:30] <dep> RequinB9: no worries mate, actually lets just try something entirely new. Run 'ntpq' from the command line, and then run the command 'peers' inside that program
[18:30]  * AldarHawk gives up on getting WiFi working
[18:30] <danand> usr13 - that should be in the kernel - no need to download any driver
[18:30] <warren_> hello
[18:30] <AldarHawk> guess I will just use this to write...not browse the net :(
[18:30] <dep> usr13: that driver is going to be in the kernel as a module, not a package. It should have a module that is loaded when the device is detected
[18:30] <RequinB9> dep - no entries
[18:30] <fbc> steven22, when your computer boots up you press DEL on most computers.
[18:30] <warren_> is hardy very unstable or rather stable for an alpha release?
[18:31] <RequinB9> dep - sorry to go away again, i have to go to the bathroom.  I'll be back in a second, sorry O.o
[18:31] <tapio> Why all these religions forks of ubuntu?
[18:31] <warren_> yeah why? (stupid)
[18:31] <usr13> dep: Maybe a hardware problem?
[18:32] <Cann0n> Nex, http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=5303
[18:32] <dep> RequinB9: ok, I'm wondering if it didn't pick up your NTP selections, let's restart the ntpd, I know that happened to me a bit ago. Try doing a 'sudo pkill ntpd' followed by 'sudo /etc/init.d/ntp-server start'
[18:32] <steven22> fbc, is there another way i could do this without messin with the biois
[18:32] <steven22> fbc, bios*
[18:32] <dep> usr13: possibly, do an lspci and see if you can find the card listed
[18:32] <al-_-Gir> someone use SCITE here ?
[18:33] <puller> can somone help me get java to work in firefox?
[18:33] <fbc> steven22, nope,, but your not going to break anything I promise. It's all menu driven...
[18:33] <danand> usr13 - is that a brand new card from 3com - i think i may have got my 5 and 9 mixed up .... theres a kernel module for 3c59x, but i can't see one for 3c95x :(
[18:33] <usr13>  dep: It shows in lspci
[18:34] <usr13> so...?
[18:34] <ensi> oh, is Intel 4965 wlan supposed to work out of the box with ubuntu 7.10? i've seen posts saying that it should work out of the box and posts saying that it doesnt
[18:34] <Winball> puller sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre sun-java5-plugin
[18:34] <fbc> steven22, once your in the bios navigation instruction should appear at the bottom of your screen and look around for the option to disable your internal audio card.
[18:34] <usr13> danand: Maybe pre-compiled into the kernel nowdays.
[18:34] <steven22> fbc, ok i'll try that.. i do have a dual boot by the way
[18:35] <XB23> guys how do i list all processes by CPU usage?
[18:35] <puller> Winball: i think i already got it, http://pastebin.com/f78db9f7c
[18:36] <fbc> That won't matter as long as you would like to use your usb audio (only) in windows as well.
[18:36] <dep> usr13: dmesg | grep 3c, see if the kernel is trying to load anything or giving any errors
[18:36] <danand> XB23 - use htop. you can install htop if you dont have it by typing sudo apt-get install htop in a terminal
[18:36] <usr13> danand: dep:  It was working before... not sure what I've done, but have uninstalled a few packages and now, no eth0
[18:37] <usr13> dep: Did that, and do not see anything about 3c in dmesg
[18:37] <danand> usr13 - do you remember what packages you removed?
[18:37] <puller> Winball: any ideas?
[18:37] <piv> ello all
[18:37] <usr13> danand: Yes
[18:38] <usr13> I'll pastebin the list
[18:38] <danand> usr13 - k
[18:38] <usr13> will take a few...
[18:38] <danand> usr13 - k :)
[18:38] <XB23> that htop is good
[18:38] <XB23> thanks :)
[18:38] <danand> XB23 - :)
[18:38] <XB23> whats the adverage cpu for a shared hosting machine

[18:41] <dep> RequinB9: after it restarts try to check the peers again via ntpq
[18:41] <puller> anyone know how to get java to work in firefox?
[18:41] <danand> usr13 - errr....
[18:41] <nickrud> ouch on that removal
[18:42] <hischild> is there a way to enable the extra keys/buttons on a laptop?
[18:42] <os2mac> is there a way to modify the look of the screensaver password lock window?
[18:42] <danand> usr13 - uh oh :O
[18:42] <nickrud> puller: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin should do the trick
[18:42] <Willem123> Hello. Is this the place to ask questions on Ubuntu?
[18:42] <hischild> Willem123, yes
[18:42] <danand> Willem123 - yes
[18:42] <RequinB9> dep - sudo: /etc/init.d/ntp-server: command not found
[18:42] <puller> nickrud: i already have that installed
[18:43] <bozukarob> puller; install the restricted formats package
[18:43] <dep> RequinB9: bah, 'sudo ntpd' should work fine
[18:43] <puller> bozukarob: how do i do that?
[18:43] <nickrud> puller: then try removing gcjwebplugin
[18:43] <dep> RequinB9: apparently they changed the name to /etc/init.d/ntp instead of ntp-server
[18:43] <Willem123> Awesome! I'm a total newbie to Linux and I have some questions which are probably really easy for you guys. But I'm just wondering if its possible to install whole packages of dependacies? Currently Im downloading, unpacking, ./configure, make and make install everything. There must be an easier way.. is there?
[18:43] <usr13> Sorry, wrong channel  :)
[18:44] <nickrud> puller: I'm assuming a 32bit install, sun didn't create a 64bit plugin
[18:44] <Winball> puller sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre sun-java5-plugin
[18:44] <kumarphilly> i want to set up ubuntu on a old pc i am getitng as a file server
[18:44] <bozukarob> puller; sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[18:44] <hischild> Willem123, yes there is. That's what aptitude is for
[18:44] <kumarphilly> which version of ubuntu should i install...
[18:44] <kumarphilly> like xubuntu
[18:44] <kumarphilly> or something
[18:44] <nickrud> Winball: java6 is available now, many sites require it
[18:44] <chdst> kumarphilly: need a GUI?
[18:44] <bozukarob> does anyone know how to mount a NTFS hdd on bootup?
[18:44] <Infamous_Cow> question. i have a few ubuntu machines setup on an internal network, and the only way they can access the internet is thru a proxy @ <IP_ADDRESS>:8080. I can get firefox and specific apps to work, but for example, ping wont work
[18:45] <kumarphilly> chdst, sorta... not good with the terminal.... will remote connect from a different computer to it...
[18:45] <nickrud> !fstab | bozukarob: add it to your fstab
[18:45] <ubotu> bozukarob: add it to your fstab: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[18:45] <dep> kumarphilly: the different versions correspond to different interfaces essentially, if you're not sure, try the default ubuntu instlal, if you're curious try kubuntu or xubuntu
[18:45] <kumarphilly> ah....
[18:45] <kumarphilly> i was afraid that gnome would eat the resources
[18:45] <Nex> How do you shade a window that doesn't have a button there by default?
[18:45] <kumarphilly> now whats the diff in x and k ubuntus...
[18:46] <damaltor> hello everybody, i have set up a LAN server for hdd and print serving, wich used to shut off / put to stand by the HDD after a while (i think i set up 2 minutes in bios). after installing a few more services like apache, the hdd is running all the time because something reads from hdd every ~30 seconds. is there a posibility to reduce hdd activity, maybe by reconfiguring ram use? as long as i am explicitely using the server, the hdd may be
[18:46] <damaltor>  running, but if it just stands around and has nothing to do, that noise is really enerving... any hints?
[18:46] <al-_-Gir> someone here use SCITE or know how to configurate  it ?
[18:46] <hischild> kumarphilly, the window manager (like gnome and kde)
[18:46] <nickrud> Nex: system->prefs->windows, set it to roll up. then double click the title bar
[18:46] <dep> kumarphilly: the default ubuntu is gnome, kubuntu is kde, and xubuntu is xfce. If you're worried about resources try xubuntu, xfce is a lighter weight system than the other two
[18:46] <Nex> Thanks nickrud :D
[18:46] <kumarphilly> ah
[18:46] <kumarphilly> and im guessing ubuntu server has no gui?
[18:46] <RequinB9> deb - ok, no errors off of 'sudo ntpd', but system time isn't liking me yet
[18:46] <bozukarob> ubotu; thanks for the help!
[18:46] <chdst> kumarphilly: Good guess. :)
[18:46] <kumarphilly> how hard is it to work it?
[18:47] <dep> RequinB9: did you check to see if the peers are registering? (via ntpq)
[18:47] <chdst> It depends on your experience level and what you're trying to do, really...
[18:47] <RequinB9> dep - still no entries
[18:47] <wildman> hello there
[18:47] <fabouney> Hi !
[18:48] <fabouney> what's the principal difference between Xchat-gnome and Xchat
[18:48] <kumarphilly> trying to set up a home server that i can store files and back up onto... basicly and ftp server.....
[18:48] <viro_> hey any one  here good with c++?
[18:48] <chdst> Right...are Windows machines involved?
[18:48] <kumarphilly> no hosting a website..
[18:48] <kumarphilly> yes
[18:48] <kumarphilly> there is one windows machine
[18:48] <hischild> Infamous_Cow, look at simpleproxy
[18:48] <puller> nickrud: i removed that thign u told me to and tried, and it still didnt work, now i am tryign what bozukarob said to do
[18:48] <nickrud> fabouney: xchat-gnome is brain dead (very little configuration available)
[18:48] <kumarphilly> oh yea and wanna share a printer (which should work with windows)
[18:48] <viro_> could any one help me with this http://slexy.org/view/s2D2vGdE0o
[18:48] <puller> nickrud: in the bottom of the firefox bar it does say applet started, i just see a gray box....
[18:48] <fabouney> ok nickrud, so Xchat-gnome is faster than Xchat
[18:49] <Willem123> Would someone be kind enough to redirect me to a page where I can find a way to quickly install programs. Currently I have to type quite a lot of commando's to install from source.
[18:49] <dep> RequinB9: ok, lets look at the config file manually, 'sudo nano -w /etc/ntp.conf', check the bottom lines for 'server' entries, the last lines in the file should say something like 'server ntp1.cs.wisc.edu' or whatever servers you selected
[18:49] <chdst> That limits your options, in my opinion. If you just want to share files, a few different things could do it. If you want to share files and a printer, though, Samba quickly becomes the best solution.
[18:49] <nickrud> puller: sure, that's worth doing. When you're done (and if it doesn't work)  try about:plugins , see what it says about java
[18:49] <Infamous_Cow> hischild: : )
[18:49] <genii> Willem123: Use the package manager.
[18:49] <nickrud> fabouney: when it comes to irc, I don't think speed will be an issue :)
[18:49] <wildman> I've read here: http://www.vmware.com/support/reference/linux/loopback_linux.html, that one can download a vmware-mount Linux tool to (loopback) mount vmware disk images to access them from the host OS, however, I didn't find such a tool (I could only download the Windows version of the tool after digging a bit around vmware's site, but it's of no use for me). Does any of you know if the Linux tool is available and where and/or if there's an alternative
[18:49] <wildman> way to mount vmware disk images?
[18:49] <fabouney> lol
[18:49] <Willem123> But the package manager doesnt support OpenFTD
[18:49] <chdst> http://www.samba.org if you haven't heard of it...they have a very knowledgeable community and a wiki full of help.
[18:49] <kumarphilly> samba is...
[18:49] <kumarphilly> ok
[18:50] <hischild> Infamous_Cow, you're the one from zd?
[18:50] <fabouney> nickrud: you use Xchat ?
[18:50] <nickrud> fabouney: yes
[18:50] <kumarphilly> now can i run samba on xubuntu?
[18:50] <damaltor> hello everybody, is there any possibility to reduce hdd activity? i have set up a small server in my lan, and that noise is really making me go wild....
[18:50] <kumarphilly> fabouney, i use xchat also..
[18:50] <tritium> Hello, kumarphilly.
[18:50] <genii> Willem123: Then unfortunately you'll just have to get used to doing the ./configure;make;make install      process
[18:50] <muthym> i successfully installed the driver(from nvidia site) but the screen/graphics still vesa&screen is "plugNplay" w/ max. resolution of 800x600..
[18:50] <bichar> lets play
[18:50] <fabouney> i installing Xchat-gnome for testing
[18:50] <chdst> You can run samba on any of the ubuntu flavors, yes.
[18:51] <puller> nickrud: what bozukarob said didnt work, so i will let u know wha about:plugins gives me
[18:51] <kumarphilly> hello... tritium
[18:51] <fabouney> french here ?
[18:51] <nickrud> !fr | fabouney
[18:51] <ubotu> fabouney: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[18:51] <tritium> fabouney: no, in #ubuntu-fr
[18:51] <RequinB9> dep - last line is 'server ntp.cmr.gov'
[18:51] <fabouney> oops :p
[18:51] <RequinB9> dep - disableauth and broadcast climate are commented, and i'm willing to bet thats a good thing
[18:51] <puller> nickrud: i have a lot of java things listed under this heading: GCJ Web Browser Plugin (using IcedTea) 1.5
[18:52] <nickrud> fabouney: heh. not knowing is not something to apologize for :)
[18:52] <kumarphilly> so how hard is to set up a ftp server on ubuntu server with out gui
[18:52] <kumarphilly> and samba
[18:52] <dep> RequinB9: yes, that's a good thing
[18:52] <kumarphilly> or could i just install xubuntu... install everything and kill the GUI proccess?
[18:52] <RequinB9> dep - somehow, i figured :)
[18:52] <nickrud> puller: then for sure you're using a gcj plugin, weak.  try   dpkg -l 'gcjweb*' | grep ^ii , that will tell you all the ones installed. Remove them all
[18:53] <puller> nickrud: that command didnt return anything...
[18:53] <dep> RequinB9: I'm potentially at a loss here, if there is a valid server line it should appear under ntpq - peers even if the server can't synchronize with it (if it has a + next to it it would be a valid candidate, a * means it is sync'd, and a - would be not valid candidate, which is what you should see at a minimum)
[18:54] <nickrud> puller: and again, this is assuming a 32bit install, not 64bit
[18:54] <wildman> kumarphilly, http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu-gutsy-samba-domaincontroller for Samba (though may be a bit overkill)
[18:54] <PuppiesOnAcid`> what version of the kernel is installed with 7.10?
[18:54] <puller> nickrud: i am pretty sure i am 32bit
[18:54] <kumarphilly> wildman, thanks!
[18:54] <fabouney> nickrud: i'm sorry but i not understand, im french :)
[18:54] <BluesDrive> how do I get my wLAN to work?  I'm not completely sure but I have a Intel PRO wLAN thing.  I'm using a Sony VGN-AR 570.
[18:54] <wildman> kumarphilly, and you'll find lots of other howtos for other configurations there
[18:54] <kumarphilly> BluesDrive, just plug it in... and the wireless network thing will be next to the clock
[18:54] <kumarphilly> and click on the little pc
[18:54] <kumarphilly> and connect to your entwork..
[18:55] <kumarphilly> i think
[18:55] <RequinB9> dep - yep, i've tried everything
[18:55] <nickrud> puller: then try  seeing if icedtea-java7-plugin is installed, try removing that
[18:55] <BluesDrive> kumarphilly:  it's not a plug in.  it's integrated, and it won't recognize it.

[18:56] <lordleemo> PuppiesOnAcid`: 2.6.22-14-generic
[18:56] <stamen> how to fix this  http://www.picvalley.net/v.php?p=u/45/11096_514.JPG
[18:56] <stamen> anybody know
[18:56] <thenetduck> how stable is SELinux for Ubuntu? is it ready for production machines yet?
[18:56]  * genii hands FloodBot2 a coffee for the good work
[18:56] <RequinB9> dep - its not that the time isn't there, its just that its wrong, which indicates its not connecting to the server...
[18:56] <stamen> I want the better look
[18:56] <stamen> like it was before :)
[18:56] <PuppiesOnAcid`> i need a kernel before 2.6.11
[18:56] <PuppiesOnAcid`> http://homepages.tu-darmstadt.de/~p_larbig/wlan/
[18:57] <dep> RequinB9: something I should have thought of earlier, perhaps the wrong time zone is selected?
[18:57] <PuppiesOnAcid`> for the prism2_usb injection driver
[18:57] <RequinB9> dep - would going into my bios help?  And maybe, what is the minutes right nwo?
[18:57] <dep> RequinB9: but that still wouldn't explain why the servers aren't showing under ntpq-peers
[18:57] <Jack_Sparrow> stamen, Please post a brief descriptoin of the problem and not just a link
[18:57] <puller> nickrud: that wa sinstalled, so i am now removing it
[18:58] <stamen> ok
[18:58] <RequinB9> dep - my thoughts too
[18:58] <dep> RequinB9: 57 min, and editing the clock in the bios shouldn't need to be done
[18:58] <stamen> like it is on the picture, firefox lokks very bad know
[18:58] <kumarphilly> one last question.. i have a pentium d in my main computer... if i install xubuntu will it run any faster then ubunut?
[18:58] <vulcar> amenado, we have aldarhawks wifi issue ressolved finally.
[18:58] <stamen> it was OK before upgrading GIMP to version 2.4.5
[18:59] <stamen> now only firefox and GIMP are so ugly
[18:59] <tritium> kumarphilly: yes, somewhat
[18:59] <nickrud> kumarphilly: how much memory do you have, that's the real limiting factor.
[18:59] <stamen> I mean with this bad look
[18:59] <puller> nickrud: so now just restart firefox and see if it works?
[18:59] <nickrud> puller: sure
[18:59] <RequinB9> dep - ok, well my system clock tells me 12:57 military, and it should be a few hours later
[18:59] <genii> PuppiesOnAcid`: "..the prism2_usb driver works out of the box" <- for 7.10 and 8.04, per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/prism2_usb
[18:59] <kumarphilly> Nikki85, on the pentium d...or on the old stuff..
[18:59] <Jack_Sparrow> stamen, did you get gimp directly from gimp?
[18:59] <stamen> I want them to be like they was after clen instalation of Kubuntu or ubuntu
[18:59] <stamen> yes
[18:59] <PuppiesOnAcid`> genii: i need a driver that can do injections though
[19:00] <stamen> I get it from the kde.org
[19:00] <Nikki85> kumarphilly ?
[19:00] <Jack_Sparrow> stamen, there is a reason we stress to people that staying inside the repos will make for a more stable working system
[19:00] <kumarphilly> i mean nikrud
[19:01] <genii> PuppiesOnAcid`: Works with wlan-ng on 8.04 not 7.10 tho
[19:01] <stamen> I know, but I wanted the newer version, as I saw this version is marked as stable
[19:01] <stamen> I think
[19:01] <kumarphilly> nickrud, on which computer are you asking me the ram
[19:01] <kumarphilly> pentium d
[19:01] <kumarphilly> or the old one..
[19:01] <reflexivu> APACHE: i have installed on my ubuntu running laptop. apache, mySql and phpmyadmin... and i changed the default site directory to another one, located in my home folder, thinking that this way apache will heve permission to access files in it... i was wrong, i have to manually set permissions per file, and that does not always work... what can i do so that i can access all my web pages from the Web browser?
[19:01] <nickrud> kumarphilly: all around, more memory -> faster operation. I ran gnome on a celeron, only reason I upgraded was it couldn't handle more than 512mb
[19:01] <Jack_Sparrow> stamen, stable by them, but not tested and marked by us.. correct
[19:01] <PuppiesOnAcid`> genii: to inject?
[19:02] <stamen> Jack_Sparrow: yes :)
[19:02] <Jack_Sparrow> stamen, What was in the newer version that you needed?
[19:02] <PuppiesOnAcid`> genii: the injection and all the aircrack programs?
[19:02] <kumarphilly> i have 2 gig of ram in the pentium d... old one is like 256 i beilieve...
[19:02] <stamen> nothing special, few things
[19:02] <nickrud> kumarphilly: then the D will run just fine
[19:02] <dep> RequinB9: not sure what to tell you, I think I'm getting beyond my area of ntp knowledge, I can't fathom why it wouldn't be processing the servers listed in the ntp.conf file
[19:02] <stamen> and tried to upgrade
[19:02] <stamen> and now....
[19:02] <Cowlol> hello I have a problem installing from livecd on ubuntu 7.10, it freezes after picking the "start or install" option on the boot screen (while loading linux kernel, mostly at 100%), I've tried adding noapic boot option and that got me to gnome but only in xterm mode
[19:03] <Jack_Sparrow> stamen, I dont suppose you have made any backups of your system
[19:03] <dep> RequinB9: perhaps just purge ntp and start from scratch, but it sounds like you just recently installed it
[19:03] <reflexivu> anyone
[19:03] <stamen> Jack_Sparrow: when you are going to test it, to know how to fix this :)
[19:03] <kumarphilly> yes but i run ubuntu on it already (thats not the pc i want as server, its my personal one) so will the 2 gig one run xubuntu any faster... or will i not notice a diff...
[19:03] <genii> PuppiesOnAcid`: Unknown from the documentation there
[19:03] <stamen> Jack_Sparrow: yes I didn't make backups
[19:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Cowlol, At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--"
[19:03] <kumarphilly> ^ @ nickrud
[19:03] <nickrud> kumarphilly: it will be noticable, somewhat
[19:03] <stamen> Jack_Sparrow: but everything works
[19:03] <chdst> stamen: Generally speaking, you should be fine doing the configure/make routing if you set your configure --prefix to /usr/local. It sounds a bit like that is not the case for your current install...
[19:04] <stamen> normal
[19:04] <reflexivu> APACHE: i have installed on my ubuntu running laptop. apache, mySql and phpmyadmin... and i changed the default site directory to another one, located in my home folder, thinking that this way apache will heve permission to access files in it... i was wrong, i have to manually set permissions per file, and that does not always work... what can i do so that i can access all my web pages from the Web browser?
[19:04] <chdst> routing/routine
[19:04] <kumarphilly> ah thanks..
[19:04] <RequinB9> dep - hmm... now that i remember, i boot non-quiet non-splash and i may have seen something about the clock on boot sequence...
[19:04] <stamen> I didn't use prefixes
[19:04] <stamen> upps
[19:04] <PuppiesOnAcid`> genii: but that driver will work?
[19:04] <chdst> Yeah. Future reference. :)
[19:04] <SliMM> is there a rhythmbox support channel?
[19:04] <wildman> bye ppl
[19:04] <stamen> how to make it with prefix
[19:05] <reflexivu> please please please
[19:05] <Cann0n> reflexivu, #apache would be of big help. but, i suggest not relocating your htdocs directory. i had the same issues
[19:05] <kumarphilly> is there anyway to remotely install ubuntu on the new (old) pc
[19:05] <kumarphilly> like over network or soething..
[19:05] <dep> RequinB9: ok, that may be important, you should be able to access kernel messages from checking your logs in /var/log/kern.log.0
[19:05] <lancerocke> Hi all. I was wondering if there was a Linux designer's IRC channel anywhere specializing in GTK
[19:06] <dep> RequinB9: I apologize but I need to get going, meeting in a few, good luck mate!
[19:06] <reflexivu> cann0n, si hat did you do
[19:06] <stamen> chdst: could you tell me how to make the configure with prefixes
[19:06] <RequinB9> kk thx
[19:06] <kumarphilly> anyone?
[19:06] <reflexivu> cann0n, what did you do?
[19:06] <Jack_Sparrow> stamen, you cant stick toothpaste back into the tube...  Building from source is not a real problem for experienced users.   Trying to fix a system after the fact is frustrating at best
[19:06] <pushpop> whats the command arguments to mount a ntfs partition?
[19:07] <stamen> Jack_Sparrow: ok :)
[19:07] <soon> Hi folks - I've used 4 different CDs to burn an ubuntu installation .iso now - they all die during boot: BOOT FAILURE INSERT BOOT DISK AND PRESS ENTER
[19:07] <stamen> hope soon will be fix or new official release in ubuntu repositories
[19:07] <Cann0n> reflexivu, its been a while. I know if you want to view your website, start the apache server and type localhost in your url bar
[19:07] <stamen> for GIMP
[19:07] <soon> However - If I use an installation CD from a magazine - no problem
[19:07] <soon> I've used K3B to burn the cd's - any suggestions what could be wrong ?
[19:08] <nikrud> soon: did you burn the isos as images, or data disks?
[19:08] <soon> isos
[19:08] <stamen> bye
[19:08] <soon> so I was expecting them to be bootable
[19:08] <nikrud> puller: so, how'd it go?
[19:08] <Cann0n> reflexivu, apachectl start was the command i used, but that was on slackware. if you are still having troubles, hit up #apache
[19:08] <lancerocke> Hi all. I was wondering if there was a Linux designer's IRC channel anywhere specializing in GTK
[19:08] <Jack_Sparrow> pushpop, sudo mkdir /media/locked-drive then sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/locked-drive substitute your drive for sda1
[19:09] <Jack_Sparrow> soon, how are you burning the disks.. as an image or a file
[19:09] <soon> as an image
[19:09] <soon> K3b - burn cd image
[19:09] <Jack_Sparrow> soon, if you bring up the cd do you see one file or many
[19:09] <pushpop> Jack_Sparrow then I should be able to read and write on that ntfs partition?
[19:09] <soon> many
[19:09] <bluebanana> how do i clear my "local resolver cache" (Step 5 in http://www.opendns.com/support/article/226 Open DNS content Filtering)?
[19:09] <Jack_Sparrow> pushpop, read write ntfs on gutsy...?
[19:10] <pushpop> Jack_Sparrow yes
[19:10] <kumarphilly> how do i add a work space in this
[19:10] <kumarphilly> i only have one
[19:10] <cathar> help me plz, "org.herac.tuxguitar.gui.system.plugins.TGPluginException: Java sound api cannot be loaded" where  i may download this java sound??
[19:10] <Quentin`> Hey there :)
[19:10] <Jack_Sparrow> pushpop, the ntfs should have been picked up during the install and beenmounted as media
[19:10] <puller> it worked yaya!!!!
[19:10] <Cann0n> lancerocke, #gtk   ?
[19:10] <pushpop> Jack_Sparrow ok and if not?
[19:10] <soon> the CD contains a number of folders, ubuntu icon file, start.exe and other stuff
[19:10] <Cowlol> Jack_Sparrow: Removing Quiet and Splash got me through freezing but I still got xterm mode, I'll try with noapic and acpi=off now
[19:11] <lordleemo> PuppiesOnAcid`: for older kernel versions see here http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/
[19:11] <genii> PuppiesOnAcid`: The pcmcia prism2 card I have works fine with hostap and aircrack-ng etc etc on 7.10 here, kernel 2.6.22-14  I don't have a usb one to try.
[19:11] <Toznoshio> Query: I am looking for PC-based dictionary software for Ubuntu, does anyone have any recommendations?
[19:11] <PuppiesOnAcid`> yeah, the USB one doesn't work
[19:11] <Jack_Sparrow> pushpop, it may be locked by windows, where you would need to remount twice in  windows or try the ntfsfix /dev/sdax   routine
[19:11] <Jack_Sparrow> or force
[19:11] <soon> Toznoshio aspell, ispell etc?
[19:11] <pushpop> Jack_Sparrow ok
[19:11] <lancerocke> Cann0n: thanks.
[19:12] <Jack_Sparrow> soon, have you tried just right clicking the iso and write to disk, have you verified the md5 of the downloads etc?
[19:12] <cathar> heey
[19:12] <Quentin`> I'm trying to configure ubuntu as to go through a proxy to access full internet (not just http nor ftp) is there a way to do that ? I've already tried the System > Preferences > Network Proxy but it doesn't seem to work... Any idea ?
[19:12] <Toznoshio> soon, I'll look into those - I've been using Lingoes on Windows XP
[19:12] <soon> Jack_Sparrow - the MD5 sums check out
[19:13] <Jack_Sparrow> soon, right click.. and burn at 4x...
[19:13] <dgjones> soon, what speed are you burning the iso at, if you use to fast a speed, that can be an issue
[19:13] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[19:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Dells hate cd's that are burned fast
[19:13] <cathar> mmm

[19:14] <Cowlol> but just removing them gets me to xterm
[19:14] <cc77> does ubuntu have problems with drivers in it's 64 bit version like windows?

[19:15] <Super_Napalm> right i got a small problem with running Half Life 2. Now I'm not new to Linux but I prefer to use Windows for games. Now I'm using the latest Ubuntu and finally managed to figure out Wine and installing Steam. Problem is after downloading HL2 i go to launch it, changes the resolution but does not load the game in any shape or form, no intro video or menus

[19:15] <soon> dgjones - thanks but I tried that 3 times already, 4 different cd's of two different brands, on two different computers (one a windows, the other linux)
[19:16] <Jack_Sparrow> cc77, We suggest new users stick with 32, in the beginning..
[19:16] <Cann0n> cc77, its new technology. it has its bugs, pros and cons.

[19:16] <cschneid_> how do I have ubuntu boot into text-mode?  I don't want X running.
[19:16] <soon> you just said dictionary
[19:16] <chdst> Quentin`: It sounds like the proxy you're is an web-only proxy, and that it won't allow you to pass traffic like DNS requests or pings no matter how you configure it.

[19:18] <R^3_DevelAdmin> for the new 360 controllers its xpad, but that doesn't work with the old one

[19:18] <Karsyt1> how do i open linux executables? ive downloaded this program for linux but it keeps trying to open it with wine...
[19:19] <Jack_Sparrow> Karsyt1, is it an exe?
[19:19] <dgjones> !wine | Super_Napalm, have your tried the appdb for wine
[19:19] <ubotu> Super_Napalm, have your tried the appdb for wine: 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.
[19:19] <Itaku> what does error 15 mean when i start my comp?
[19:19] <Cowlol> Hi, I'm having a problem installing Ubuntu 7.10 from live CD (32 bit desktop), I've verified the iso and tried burning several times but it always freezes on boot screen (while loading linux kernel). Adding noapic option stops it from freezing but only gets me a restricted xterm mode. Removing quiet and spalsh options also have the same effect. I'm using an acer with intel 965PM motherboard and core 2 duo processor.
[19:19] <lordleemo> Toznoshio: starlict jaylingo http://www.linux.com/feature/60803
[19:19] <Karsyt1> Jack_Sparrow: all it says is application/x-executable

[19:20] <Itaku> what does error 15 mean when i start my comp?
[19:20] <R^3_DevelAdmin> but i'm not sure if xpad is the right one, since it doesn't work
[19:21] <Starnestommy> Itaku: file not found
[19:21] <Karsyt1> Cann0n: it says MIME Type: application/x-executable
[19:21] <Cowlol> I also tried all-generic-ide and irqpoll options and it still freezes while loading kernel
[19:21] <Itaku> oh ffs
[19:21] <Cann0n> Karsyt1, what type of file is it?
[19:21] <Itaku> thats the umpteenth time ive been hacked
[19:21] <Karsyt1> Cann0n: executable, not windows though
[19:21] <Karsyt1> Cann0n: it has no extension
[19:22] <Toznoshio> lordleemo, thanks for pointing me to those dictionaries
[19:22] <bluebanana> how do i find out my network device's name? (I tried eth0, but it isn't it).
[19:22] <bluebanana> thanks
[19:22] <Starnestommy> bluebanana: run ifconfig and it should show you a list
[19:22] <lordleemo> Toznoshio: your welcome
[19:22] <Cann0n> Karsyt1, did u try running it in a terminal?
[19:22] <Cowlol> :(
[19:22] <Cann0n> through*
[19:22] <Karsyt1> Cann0n: i wanted to but i dont know what command i would use.
[19:22] <Itaku> where can i report a hacker?
[19:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Karsyt1, is it bash or what?     have you tried  ./script
[19:22] <bluebanana> Starnestommy: cool. so i did that. now which one in that list is the active one?
[19:23] <Cann0n> ./name
[19:23] <rblst> Hey all, I have a Java application (JDictionary 1.8), I don't have Central European characters in it, but in other apps I have. What to do?
[19:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Itaku, What makes you think you have been hacked
[19:23] <Starnestommy> bluebanana: which ones are there
[19:23] <Karsyt1> Jack_Sparrow: all it says is executable, its Stepmania for linux.
[19:23] <Itaku> uh someone keeps hacking me and theyre in my routers logs
[19:23] <Starnestommy> Itaku: your ISP or the suspected hacker's ISP or the police
[19:23] <bluebanana> Starnestommy: ath0, eth0, lo wifi0-00
[19:23] <Cann0n> Karsyt1, did you try typing the name in the command line?
[19:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Karsyt1, do you have a link to it
[19:23] <danand> Itaku - by the sound of it, you really need to secure your box.... set a bios password and change the boot devices order to prevent people from cracking your system with a live cd. ie set the hard disk to before the cdrom and usb disks
[19:23] <Itaku> and this is the umpteenth time they hacked me
[19:23] <MythGuy> How do I see if my sound card is detected by Ubuntu?
[19:23] <Karsyt1> Cann0n: just type the name of the file?
[19:23] <Itaku> they just deleted all the files in /
[19:23] <Starnestommy> bluebanana: it's eithrt ath0 or wifi0-00
[19:23] <Itaku> im reinstalling right now
[19:23] <Starnestommy> *either
[19:24] <bluebanana> how can i find out if anyone is hacking me (a la Itaku)?
[19:24] <Itaku> im on live cd
[19:24] <bluebanana> (i'm on a wireless network)
[19:24] <bluebanana> Starnestommy: thanks
[19:24] <ompaul> Itaku, if you post the logs and stop complaining and we can explain them to you -- many people don't really grok what they are reading in logs
[19:24] <SliMM> please, i need help with my rhythmbox
[19:24] <b47619> do you happen to know of an ubuntu 8.04 alpha bug that causes the system to only successfully login and function in a failsafe gnome session?

[19:24] <Itaku> i only see them in the logs the hour before my comp gets haced

[19:25] <Karsyt1> Jack_Sparrow: im using the linux binary
[19:25] <ompaul> Itaku, what operating system?
[19:25] <Itaku> ubuntu
[19:25] <Cowlol> Hi, I'm having a problem installing Ubuntu 7.10 from live CD (32 bit desktop), I've verified the iso and tried burning several times but it always freezes on boot screen (while loading linux kernel). Adding noapic option stops it from freezing but only gets me a restricted xterm mode. Removing quiet and spalsh options also have the same effect. I'm using an acer with intel 965PM motherboard and core 2 duo processor. Other options I tried are all-generic-ide
[19:25] <ompaul> Itaku, post your logs
[19:25] <Cann0n> Karsyt1, ./nameoffile   ?
[19:25] <Itaku> i dont want to...
[19:25] <Itaku> i dont paste stuff like taht
[19:25] <Cowlol> ubuntu hates me..
[19:25] <bluebanana> Starnestommy: which logs?
[19:25] <ompaul> Itaku, then stop complaining - cos you are not correct until you post them
[19:25] <Starnestommy> Itaku: just remove any sensitive information
[19:25] <Starnestommy> bluebanana: auth.log is one
[19:26] <xjkx> cowbud, ubuntu used to hate me too :p
[19:26] <Itaku> im already 1000% sure that they did it
[19:26] <Itaku> they hate me
[19:26] <Karsyt1> Cann0n: i think that worked. now i just have to fix some little error i got because i put the folder in the wrong location
[19:26] <Itaku> and theyve been doing it the exact same way
[19:26] <Karsyt1> Cann0n: yeah that worked, thanks much :D
[19:27] <Karsyt1> Jack_Sparrow: i just had to run it with ./ ive got it working now
[19:27] <Cann0n> np
[19:27] <Cowlol> where can I find more about boot options or why gnome would start in xterm mode?
[19:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Karsyt1, thought I mentioned that earlier
[19:27] <ar0nic> Cowlol you would press escape during the grub loader when you oboot
[19:27] <bluebanana> Starnestommy: http://pastebin.ca/949360 <--ifconfig output. I can't figure out which is the device i'm using
[19:27] <ar0nic> you*
[19:27] <b47619> I can only start gnome in a failsafe gnome session. can you think of a possible cause? I am using ubuntu 80.4 alpha 6 I start a normal session and it evetually goes back to the login page
[19:28] <spirithands> hey does the ati 8.3 driver released on march 5 support ATI 2600 HD card?
[19:28] <jin> how do you restart alsa? or the sound server?
[19:28] <danand> jin - /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[19:28] <Civeli> Hi, ive a Ati IGP345M , direct render = Yes but when i fullscreen a game like frozen-bubble or scummvm my display crept
[19:28] <Cowlol> ar0nic: it's too fast for me!
[19:28] <danand> jin - sudo that ^^
[19:29] <bluebanana> Starnestommy: i'm trying to do something like "sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0" to avoid my DNS Server settings being revoked after a reboot. (https://www.opendns.com/start?device=ubuntu#step1)
[19:29] <Super_Napalm> Okay I have a problem starting up Half Life 2. I've tried searching google and a few topics on the forums but nothing answers my problem. I've got Steam installed and downloaded HL2, but when I go to launch it, it changes the resolution screen, nothing else. I have a 3.4ghz Intel Pentium D with 1gb ram and a Radeon x1650 Pro running Ubuntu 7.10
[19:29] <Cann0n> spirithands, i dont know. ATI had linux have some issues. not all ATI devices are fully supported on linux.
[19:29] <MythGuy> Can I please get some help? I'm having trouble finding my sound card.
[19:29] <b47619> Has anyone heard of this issue before? sorry if I am getting annoying with this I can only start gnome in a failsafe gnome session. can you think of a possible cause? I am using ubuntu 80.4 alpha 6 I start a normal session and it evetually goes back to the login page

[19:30] <rblst> MythGuy: type this in terminal: asoundconf list
[19:30] <jin> there should be a service that automatically restart alsa if it crashes
[19:31] <Jack_Sparrow> MythGuy, Did it ever work?
[19:31] <terminal> when i installing steam through wine i got error steam.exe (main exception): unable to load library steam.dll
[19:31] <Itaku> is there a way to block someone from using "sudo su"
[19:31] <b47619> I can only start gnome in a failsafe gnome session. can you think of a possible cause? I am using ubuntu 80.4 alpha 6 I start a normal session and it evetually goes back to the login page
[19:31] <Cann0n> Civeli, some cards dont work to their fullest. Im running on Radeon 9100 IGP and it works 100%, but some other cards dont have supported drivers, and dont support xgl or 3d
[19:31] <MythGuy> No. I installed the card a little while ago.
[19:31] <Starnestommy> Itaku: don't give them access to the admin group
[19:31] <MythGuy> Because my onboard one wasn't being found.

[19:32] <Itaku> Jack_Sparrow: im gibing someone sudo access and "sudo su" gives you root with no asking for pass
[19:32] <piv> i have a static ip address in /etc/network/interfaces but after being up, it gets a new address, how do i get my eth0 to stay at the address i gave for it?
[19:32] <Itaku> giving*
[19:32] <twinkie_adict> i updated to 8.04 and all is fine it seems but one thing , my sound card seems to be not detected

[19:34] <styrman> is it possible to syncronize the gnome loading with a theme?.. currently I see gnome default skin load, then after a few seconds my theme loads
[19:34] <Civeli> Cann0n thx i gona test
[19:34] <Cowlol> the faq in the channel topic takes me into a "powerpcfaq"
[19:34] <Cann0n> np
[19:34] <scott__H> any one got any advice on settin up oblivion on ubuntu gutsy
[19:34] <Super_Napalm> can anyone answer my problem please...
[19:34] <Cowlol> after i click common questions
[19:34] <dgjones> !wine | Super_Napalm, have your tried the appdb for wine
[19:34] <ubotu> Super_Napalm, have your tried the appdb for wine: 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.
[19:34] <scott__H> yep
[19:35] <scott__H> i have
[19:35] <taweel> Enter text here...hi
[19:35] <Cowlol> Again, I'm having a problem installing Ubuntu 7.10 from live CD (32 bit desktop), I've verified the iso and tried burning several times but it always freezes on boot screen (while loading linux kernel). Adding noapic option stops it from freezing but only gets me a restricted xterm mode. Removing quiet and spalsh options also have the same effect. I'm using an acer with intel 965PM motherboard and core 2 duo processor. Other options I tried are all-generic-
[19:35] <Ouroborosity> that's exactly the same problem with me
[19:35] <Cowlol> is there another place where I can ask that isn't a forum?
[19:35] <Ouroborosity> freezes on boot
[19:36] <scott__H> dose it come up with an error
[19:36] <jin> mhh movie player has sound but not VLC :(
[19:36] <scott__H> ?
[19:36] <Ouroborosity> no error
[19:36] <ar0nic> cowlol run memtest.
[19:36] <scott__H> hmmm
[19:36] <Ouroborosity> just freezes
[19:36] <scott__H> try another live cd???
[19:36] <Ouroborosity> and I'm a noob with linux, so i'm at a loss
[19:36] <spz> cowlol, have you tried Wubi ?
[19:36] <Ouroborosity> tried it
[19:36] <Cowlol> ar0nic: memory test in the boot screen?
[19:36] <Ouroborosity> redownloaded it from a different location
[19:36] <scott__H> could be your useing the one for amd
[19:36] <Ouroborosity> hm
[19:37] <Cowlol> no spz, not on this laptop anyway
[19:37] <ar0nic> sure the grubloader will let you press escape and then it would be option 3
[19:37] <rblst> is there a global setting for character encoding, fonts, etc. for Java applications?
[19:37] <scott__H> so yeah any advice on oblivion i have wine im not that silly
[19:37] <Itaku> brb
[19:37] <Ouroborosity> well this is frustrating
[19:37] <ompaul> scott__H, wine specific stuff in #winehq

[19:38] <ubotu> Ouroborosity: For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[19:38] <p4nny89> try using an Alternate Install CD
[19:38] <R^3_DevelAdmin> how do i make /dev/input/js0 ?
[19:38] <spz> with Wubi you download a installer and run it. that's it. reboot and it's there :) not sure about 7.10 though
[19:38] <pan^fester> hiho
[19:39] <Ouroborosity> hmm, wubi seems worth a try
[19:39] <spz> yeah, forget all the cds and stuff. why not make it simle ? :)
[19:39] <spz> simple*
[19:40] <Cowlol> spz: I tried Wubi before (on my older pc), it's nice but I'd like to try the normal install option
[19:40] <Ouroborosity> last time i used and linux distro was Redhat years ago
[19:40] <Mindpoke> Ehmm, can someone help me? I accidentaly removed the menu bar in xchat with a misclick, anyone know how i would go about getting it back? :p

[19:44] <Svenstaro> Does anybody have a recent guide on how to properly put together an Ubuntu live cd? The one on Ubuntu.com is for 6.06 :S
[19:44] <lordleemo> Elijah_: welcome
[19:44] <Elijah_> Svenstaro, That can't be true
[19:44] <Svenstaro> Well I
[19:44] <Svenstaro> I'm not lying :P
[19:44] <Elijah_> Svenstaro, The latest release 7.10 is the live cd available
[19:45] <Svenstaro> Yes, I want to put together my own live distro based on ubuntu
[19:45] <Svenstaro> The howto in the community docs is for 6.06 only and reconstructor isnt powerful enoguh
[19:45] <Elijah_> Svenstaro, there is a lts 6.06
[19:45] <Elijah_> but a 7.10 above it
[19:45] <jdkarns> I have an MSI RX1600Pro-TD256e Graphics Card.  Does anyone know the best place to find the correct drivers for Linux Ubuntu download and install

[19:46] <nett00n> i have 1 question about fluxbox. How to hibernate there?
[19:46] <inil> hi all
[19:46] <R^3_DevelAdmin> how can i remove the newer version of xpad (for 360) and put the older 0.6 module (for old xbox)
[19:46] <Elijah_> Svenstaro,  on this page --> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download is a live cd for 7.10
[19:46] <inil> i can connect dynamic ip for remote desktop?
[19:47] <la-perr> what is the command for reconfigering?
[19:47] <Svenstaro> I dont want to download a live cd, I want to put together my own ubuntu based specialised distro
[19:47] <la-perr> xorg
[19:47] <Elijah_> Svenstaro, I ca't help you with that
[19:47] <jdkarns> I have an MSI RX1600Pro-TD256e Graphics Card.  Does anyone know the best place to find the correct drivers for Linux Ubuntu download and install
[19:47] <Svenstaro> Well thanks anyway
[19:47] <Elijah_> jdkarns, I don't know did you try searching the forums
[19:47] <Super_Napalm> I'm trying everything i can't get Half Life 2 to launch at all, looking on the Wine website but I can't really find anything useful
[19:48] <Cann0n> R^3_DevelAdmin, try google.com.
[19:48] <Elijah_> Svenstaro, sorry - I am in the early stages, I want to try learning Python I think.
[19:48] <jdkarns> Elijah_, no i suppose i could check that out
[19:48] <frold> any one knows howto run TVu on linux?=
[19:48] <adac> anyone familiar with ltsp/pxe boot?
[19:48] <Elijah_> jdkarns, it may be best to just search for "msi video" to begin with
[19:48] <Svenstaro> Yes, adac
[19:49] <Elijah_> jdkarns, or you could do "msi video ubuntu" on google
[19:49] <Ouroborosity> whoever suggested wubi
[19:49] <adac> Svenstaro: on the client I get this error: PXE-T01: File not found
[19:49] <Ouroborosity> it's trying to find 7.04 alternate install, but it can't
[19:49] <hyakuhei> hmmm, supposing that I hadn't done something stupid, what should I expect to see on a typical laptop installation of ubuntu for "uname -r" ?
[19:49] <adac> but I'm sure that the path to pxelinux.0 fits
[19:49] <Svenstaro> adac, are you using it in conjuction with a dhcp server?
[19:49] <Ouroborosity> nevermind me
[19:49] <jdkarns> Elijah_, Ya i did a lot of google searches to no avail
[19:50] <Elijah_> It's cool to see the size of the channel grow by 30% since I last came on many months ago
[19:50] <adac> Svenstaro: yes...dhcp server is on the same machine as tftp
[19:50] <Elijah_> I think that between 2010-2012 the momentum will really be flying for Ubuntu!
[19:50] <Jack_Sparrow> hyakuhei, your kernel info
[19:50] <eduardo> hello somebody know how conect with the LAN a OS in VirtualBox ?
[19:50] <jdkarns> Elijah_, I found the exact download i need but it is either a fake or not working as it just sits there saying download will start in a moment
[19:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Elijah_, See what happens after Hardy
[19:51] <Svenstaro> adac, okay, well I'm sure you already double checked the path, did you successfully boot another PXE on that machine?
[19:51] <Elijah_> Jack_Sparrow, Yeah it will be exciting!
[19:51] <Cann0n> eduardo, what os are you running on vmware?
[19:51] <Elijah_> Jack_Sparrow, we just need some better hardware support to really fly!
[19:51] <eduardo> Windows
[19:51] <adac> Svenstaro: wanna see the config files? No i did not check with another machine yet...cause my other notebook is broken
[19:51] <hyakuhei> Jack_Sparrow, yes, I know what the command means, I was pondering which kernel I would be running on a typical (i.e not fubar) system...
[19:51] <Elijah_> jdkarns, where is the link?
[19:51] <eduardo> and the real machine is Ubuntu Cannon
[19:51] <hyakuhei> I'm having a few issues lol
[19:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Elijah_, We need to keep on topic
[19:52] <Svenstaro> adac, yes, put the config on pastebin
[19:52] <Jack_Sparrow> 2 6 22 14
[19:52] <eduardo> the Windows has IP: 10.... and the Ubuntu has 192...
[19:52] <p4nny89> how can i redirect traffic from port X to port Y, couldn't find any good tutorial
[19:52] <chdst> I can't resist the pimpage, though. I'm running Hardy right now. It's not even Beta, and it's the best OS I've ever used.
[19:52] <Cann0n> eduardo, you should just change the type of connection. I use NAT settings.
[19:52] <adac> Svenstaro: one question to the /opt/ltsp... path before. it belongs to the user root...do I have to change that?
[19:53] <Svenstaro> adac, to be sure, make it 777
[19:53] <Svenstaro> might be an issue there
[19:53] <WhipsMcGee> can someone help me setup a printer through samba?  I get an error when I run this:
[19:53] <WhipsMcGee> root@ubuntu:~# lpadmin -p Invoice -v<EMAIL_ADDRESS>-P /root/inkjet.ppd
[19:53] <WhipsMcGee> lpadmin: No such file or directory
[19:53] <eduardo> yes Cannon, I used it, but the IP is the same....
[19:53] <Ashfire908> I've got the LiveCD Persistence thing working on my usb drive, but i have a concern: how much will using it for the livecd persistence shorten it's life expentancy?
[19:53] <nikrud> p4nny89: an example: http://erik.thauvin.net/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=72
[19:53] <chdst> Though it does make me feel like I should just stick with LTS releases...it was a lot easier to upgrade some old dapper boxen than it was to increment up from dapper to edgy to feisty to...you get the idea. :)
[19:54] <Svenstaro> Ashfire908, by a considerable amount
[19:54] <adac> Svenstaro, : I just was wondering because according to this howto this is not needed: http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/LTSP
[19:54] <adac> sorry its german ;)
[19:54] <Svenstaro> adac, I'm German so no worries
[19:54] <Cann0n> eduardo, you are trying to use two IP's? I tried that option, it didnt work, so i moved to the next, and my VM gets online, so i was happy.
[19:54] <adac> Svenstaro: :)
[19:55] <Ashfire908> Svenstaro: :-/
[19:55] <_KavOOr_> #ubuntu+1
[19:55] <Cann0n> stay on topic folks
[19:55] <SliMM> hello
[19:55] <jdkarns> Elijah_, http://www.drivers.mrjuan.com/download-4148-15-rx1600pro-td256e-linux-ubuntu.html
[19:55] <Svenstaro> Ashfire908, use it as a third system only, do not boot it regulartly
[19:55] <Ashfire908> Svenstaro: what do you mean?
[19:56] <SliMM> does "make install" install an application on my system, just like a .deb file or smth?
[19:56] <Svenstaro> Ashfire908, just don't boot the system too frequently from the usb key and it won't do much harm
[19:56] <jdkarns> Elijah_, I think the link is just a page someone set up for advertisements
[19:56] <Starnestommy> SliMM: somewhat like that, except the package manager usually won't manage it
[19:56] <WhipsMcGee> does anyone here know how to get a printer working when it is being shared by a windows pc?
[19:56] <Svenstaro> adac, just try making it 777, just in case. Furthermore, that guide seems well, try a very small PXE boot image from somewhere to nail down the problem
[19:56] <eduardo> not Cannon, I want one IP only... I've Internet in the 2 computer...but I think they are in diferent LAN
[19:57] <Juozapas> WhipsMcGee: i use configuration like u want
[19:57] <SliMM> Starnestommy: well, how can i make the package manager manage such an application?
[19:57] <Svenstaro> adac, also double check the root path
[19:57] <MindSpark> does firefox play weird games on me alone ?
[19:57] <cschneid_> if I have the gutsy release, can I pull specific hardy packages?  (ie. xmonad?)
[19:57] <Starnestommy> SliMM: find out how to make your own packages or download an existing one
[19:57] <adac> Svenstaro: yea i did it according to this howto...so this is probably the only file that differs: http://pastebin.com/m4d2e99ce
[19:57] <eduardo> so the real Machine (Ubuntu) has IP: <IP_ADDRESS> and the Virtual Machine (Windows) has <IP_ADDRESS> o similar...
[19:57] <MindSpark> there's a #%&#^* memory leak in there
[19:57] <WhipsMcGee> Juozapas: can you help me figure it out?  I'm at one of the last steps in this tutorial http://excess.org/docs/linux_windows_printing.html#introduction but I'm getting an error
[19:58] <Cann0n> eduardo, then use NAT option. it will share the internet
[19:58] <MindSpark> I've never ever experienced a program on linux that would freeze the system before
[19:58] <Juozapas> WhipsMcGee:  ubuntu 7.10 ?
[19:58] <eduardo> it was in NAT Cannon
[19:58] <Svenstaro> adac, x64 might be giving you there trobule here
[19:58] <ewook> l
[19:58] <Pawbie> MindScape: Do some at-home tweaking on Madwifi drivers.
[19:58] <eduardo> well it is in NAT now to
[19:58] <Ragzouken> Whilst booting Ubuntu I could see there was a 'modprobe' error of some sort to do with my wireless. Where might I be able to find a copy of this error message? Is there a log I can check?
[19:58] <WhipsMcGee> no, ubuntu server 6
[19:58] <Svenstaro> adac, I had strange problems with that in the past
[19:58] <Cann0n> is the windows settings correct?
[19:58] <jdkarns> Does anyone have an idea what the best computer hardware is to build the most compatible Linux Ubuntu System?
[19:58] <WhipsMcGee> do you know how to do it from the CLI?
[19:58] <Pawbie> Ragzouken: dmesg
[19:58] <SliMM> ok, how do i make my own packages?
[19:59] <Juozapas> WhipsMcGee: ghm... i use 7.10
[19:59] <simplexio> Ragzouken: dmesg
[19:59] <eduardo> in Windows I use Automatic IP
[19:59] <Pawbie> jdkarns: Lenovo T61's actually work amazingly out of the box.
[19:59] <Svenstaro> jdkarns, go with Nvidia, Intel, and a board of your choice :)
[19:59] <Juozapas> WhipsMcGee: in there just add printer ;)
[19:59] <adac> Svenstaro: Yea that could probably be true. 64 bit is one big problem itself it seems
[19:59] <Cann0n> are you on wireless?
[19:59] <Svenstaro> adac, yes it is still :/ sadly
[19:59] <eduardo> not with wire
[19:59] <Elijah_> jdkarns, Try this out --> http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=proddesc&prod_no=1291&maincat_no=130&cat2_no=137
[19:59] <LiquidIKon> I am looking for a app for ubuntu like tcpview any idea
[19:59] <Ragzouken> Pawbie, I tried that, but "dmesg | grep -i 'modprobe'" was unable to find anything, am I searching incorrectly?
[19:59] <WhipsMcGee> Juozapas: probably the same on version 6, but I'm using the server version
[19:59] <adac> Svenstaro: on the other hand also the cleint is 64 bit if this matters somehow
[19:59] <jdkarns> Svenstaro, So really All Intel and Nvidia the
[19:59] <Juozapas> WhipsMcGee: i never used server edition
[20:00] <Elijah_> jdkarns, oops NV
[20:00] <Juozapas> so i think i can help u
[20:00] <Juozapas> *cant
[20:00] <Elijah_> MS only
[20:00] <Toznoshio> LiquidIKon, try netstat -antp
[20:00] <Pawbie> Ragzouken: You can try /var/log/syslog, or just run "modprove -a" from shell and see what happens.
[20:00] <Pawbie> Except, you really should spell modprobe with a B.
[20:00] <Starnestommy> SliMM: check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Basic?action=show&redirect=HowToBuildDebianPackagesFromScratch
[20:00] <adac> Svenstaro: I just try out the 386 than we will see
[20:00] <lordleemo> SliMM: start reading good tut here http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/
[20:00] <Ashfire908> Svenstaro: well i have a livecd that i boot and i want to use the usb drive to do the persistent stuff. i saw some thing that suggested that it can be setup only to use it for the home folder would that reduse the wear?
[20:00] <Svenstaro> adac, yup, try a small i386 image and see if that happens to work
[20:01] <Ragzouken> Pawbie, modprobe -a requires a module name I think, it just spits help at me
[20:01] <pan^fester> jdkarns, ati should get better in te future but atm I think Svenstaro is right.
[20:01] <Pawbie> Ashfire908: New flash drives are extremely durable compared to old ones.  My SanDisk drive lasted a year booting Ubuntu, and now I use it to boot WindowsPE at work.
[20:01] <Svenstaro> Ashfire908, I'm not 100% sure if read cycles also destroy the key, but write cycles to for sure, so yes, if read cycles do it no harm then of course it safe to use, I need to read up on that
[20:02] <jdkarns> pan^fester, thanks
[20:03] <jeanmichel> hello!!
[20:03] <amenado> Ashfire908-> whats the mtbf 100,000+  how many of that you think you can do in a given day?
[20:03] <pan^fester> I am no expert , though
[20:04] <Ashfire908> amenado: what's mtbf?
[20:04] <R^3_DevelAdmin> is there something like recycling bin in ubuntu?
[20:04] <adac> Svenstaro: Where can I get a i386 image? with ltsp-build-client it only gets the amd64
[20:04] <amenado> Ashfire908-> mean time between faulting
[20:04] <Svenstaro> R^3_DevelAdmin sure there is
[20:04] <Toznoshio> R^3_DevelAdmin, yes, the .Trash directory
[20:04] <Svenstaro> Ashfire908, mean time between failure
[20:04] <R^3_DevelAdmin> oh thanks
[20:05] <R^3_DevelAdmin> is there a link to it?
[20:05] <R^3_DevelAdmin> i mean somewhere in the menus/desktop
[20:05] <jdkarns> quit
[20:05] <Svenstaro> adac, what exactly do you mean?
[20:05] <Svenstaro> adac, your dhcp server only boots x64?
[20:05] <Ashfire908> amenado: i don't know?
[20:05] <Toznoshio> R^3_DevelAdmin, you can get to it via command line
[20:05] <mechanical> hi
[20:05] <lordleemo> R^3_DevelAdmin: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_time_between_failures
[20:05] <Cowlol> this memory test takes forever :(
[20:05] <Svenstaro> R^3_DevelAdmin, theres a small symbol on the default desktop that looks like a bin
[20:05] <adac> Svenstaro: the command ltsp-build-client gets you directly the image...it downloads the packages and install the image
[20:06] <Cowlol> how many passes are there?
[20:06] <Cowlol> or is it up to me?
[20:06] <Cowlol> (boot menu memory test btw)
[20:06] <adac> Svenstaro: This command loads it directly from the internet
[20:06] <Svenstaro> adac, ah, well, you can't make it load i386?
[20:07] <lordleemo> R^3_DevelAdmin:  sorry try that http://www.linux-ha.org/MTBF
[20:07] <adac> Svenstaro: hmm aahhh help HELPS lol  --dist                     Set the distribution to be used for install
[20:07] <amenado> Ashfire908-> so good enuff for 3 years at least
[20:07] <Cowlol> About the boot memory test: does it actually end or do I end it?
[20:07] <puller> can somone give me mencoder help?
[20:08] <adac> Svenstaro: read first then ask...i foret this sometimes
[20:08] <Svenstaro> adac, :)
[20:08] <Ashfire908> amenado: with booting the livecd and using the drive for persistence?
[20:08] <MindSpark> I've been using linux since 1997
[20:08] <amenado> Ashfire908-> yes
[20:08] <MindSpark> this is the second time it ever crashed on me
[20:08] <MindSpark> because of firefox !!!!
[20:08] <MindSpark> what the hell's wrong with this thing ?
[20:08] <Ashfire908> amenado: that's more then enough. i only need this until sunday.
[20:09] <Cowlol> Again, I'm having a problem installing Ubuntu 7.10 from live CD (32 bit desktop), I've verified the iso and tried burning several times but it always freezes on boot screen (while loading linux kernel). Adding noapic option stops it from freezing but only gets me a restricted xterm mode. Removing quiet and spalsh options also have the same effect. I'm using an acer with intel 965PM motherboard and core 2 duo processor. Other options I tried are all-generic-
[20:09] <r3n0c> hey, when i plug in my headphones my speakers still play, both play sound
[20:09] <noodlesgc> Cowlol why not use the alternate cd?
[20:09] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, whats your graphics card?
[20:09] <adac> Svenstaro: uhh it needs some time to download i hate this hiperlan wireless provider...well I will tell you later if it worked
[20:09] <Ashfire908> amenado: thanks
[20:09] <Cann0n> MindSpark, then don't sue firefox. there are other browsers that score higher on the acid3 tests
[20:09] <Svenstaro> adac, alright, good luck
[20:09] <Cowlol> Geforce 8600M GS
[20:10] <MindSpark> Cann0n, what do you recommend ?
[20:10] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, I get the same issues with a series 8 nvidia :)
[20:10] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, remove splash and quit from the grub menu
[20:10] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, or use hardy, it works
[20:10] <Svenstaro> Its a usplash issue not fixed in 7.10
[20:10] <Cann0n> Safari rated high, but i use firefox. It hasn't caused any problems with me yet.
[20:10] <adac> Svenstaro: thx, and thanks for your advices!
[20:11] <r3n0c> anybody know why when i plug in my headphones the main speakers still play?
[20:11] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: I did remove them, it works but only gets me into some restricted xterm mode
[20:11] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, do you mena you can boot console or get busybox?
[20:11] <big__kik> Bonsoir.
[20:11] <big__kik> Hi.
[20:12] <moDumass> hey all, system update, now everything uber slow especially internet, have changed IPv6 to IPv4
[20:12] <moDumass> any other ideas?
[20:12] <r3n0c> why are my speakers still playing after i plug in headphones
[20:12] <puller> can somone help me with mencoder?
[20:12] <Cann0n> lol r3n0c i had the same problem. it went away after a while.
[20:12] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: I get through booting and then to a login screen but when I login it tells me it can only run in xterm and i get a small terminal and can move my mouse
[20:12] <r3n0c> Cann0n, lol great.... didn't change anything tho?
[20:13] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, ah thats good, kill X and using links or lynx download the newest nvidia drivers
[20:13] <MindSpark> Cann0n, safari for linux ?
[20:13] <Ashfire908> amenado: what about using ext2 or ext3? do the advantages over ext2 that make up for the wear from the journaling?
[20:13] <Cann0n> i didnt change anything directly. something might have changed during an update or Amarok being isntalled
[20:13] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, install them and let nvidia configure your xorg.conf, startx again and youre good to go
[20:13] <rinaldi_> puller: you will get an answer quicker if you state what your problem is
[20:13] <frank23> can someone try to ping gulus.usherbrooke.ca  for me. it's my mirror and I can't connect to it right now
[20:14] <Svenstaro> Ashfire908, just found out, reading cycles dont destroy the usbkey, only write and erease cycles do, also when your stick gets old it will get slow
[20:14] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: Thanks, I'll try that. xkill and apt-get, right?
[20:14] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, not quite, how experienced are you?
[20:14] <puller> rinaldi_: when i converted a .wmv movie to an mpeg movie and transfered it to my mad, the mac wouldnt play it...
[20:14] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: not very
[20:14] <puller> rinaldi_: i meant .mpg
[20:15] <genii> frank23: Yeah I'm getting a black hole there too right now. Try perhaps instead debian.yorku.ca
[20:15] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, thats okay, we'll use envy in that case, when you are in the xterm, type firefox
[20:15] <Ashfire908> Svenstaro: already looked it up, and i sort knew that only writes are damainging beofre i lookewd it up
[20:15] <wshaddix> does anyone know if there are plans to update to the 2.6.25 kernel for ubuntu 8.04?
[20:15] <lordleemo> frank23: pkts trans 6 pkts received nil
[20:15] <frank23> genii: ok
[20:15] <rinaldi_> puller: im no expert on mencoder, just saying you should say your problem first. Is it possible you don't have mpg codecs installed? have you tried any other mpg videos?
[20:15] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, using firefox browse to http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html or use google and search for "envy"
[20:15] <frank23> genii: lordleemo thanks
[20:16] <puller> rinaldi_: how can i install mpg codeces?
[20:16] <Ragzouken> Are these things anything to be worried about? http://pastebin.com/mb7388da
[20:16] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, then just download the envy deb, and using xterm stilll, type "sudo dpkg -i envy*"
[20:16] <hischild> !envy
[20:16] <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 »
[20:17] <Cann0n> MindSpark, woops. forgot. Try a different version of FireFox or get a Mozilla Suite
[20:17] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, then envy will be installed from the package you just downloaded, after that simply type "sudo envy" and it will install your driver
[20:17] <BlackChaos> hi, i just installed ubuntu yesterday so this is my first time using linux and so im still trying 2 get used 2 it, i am installing some appz via add/remove and when i was installing them this message came up and now it always come up when i wanna update or im downloading appz : the message tells me that i must insert the ubuntu 7.10 gutsy gibbon disk and some other stuff y does this come up
[20:17] <dead> good evening ppl... does someone know where i can find some drivers for my Creative Audigy Soundcard?
[20:17] <MindSpark> I guess
[20:17] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: I'll try that once (if) it gets through countless buffer I/O errors
[20:17] <Svenstaro> dead, alsa will do
[20:17] <dead> k, i try that
[20:17] <Pawbie> BlackChaos: Take the CD in your repository list.
[20:18] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, I get those myself in this constellation sadly, try 8.04
[20:18] <genii> dead: It should be using the emu10k1 driver normally
[20:18] <rinaldi_> puller: i don't have a mac so i wouldn't know how to go about it at all. Try downloading an .mpg off somewhere and see if it works. Usually if a video doesn't work I always try it in vlc,  especially that vlc in mac and windows comes wiith the codecs built in
[20:18] <BlackChaos> what do youmean Pawbie
[20:18] <Ashfire908> how do i disable auto mounting of drives?
[20:18] <puller> does anyoen know how to convert videos usign mencoder?
[20:19] <Svenstaro> Ashfire908, go to System -> Settings -> removable media
[20:19] <styrman> BlackChaos: i think its cause you installed some very low level, stuff, cause it has only happend to me once and thats when i tried to change splashimage :)
[20:20] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: Nah I think it's just because I used the acpi=noirq option, I didn't get them with just removing splash and quiet
[20:20] <Ashfire908> Svenstaro: thanks i knew about that entry in the menu but never looked at it. i've been looking for how to turn it off for a long time :)
[20:20] <rinaldi_> puller: if you can't get an answer, try in #mplayer or #mencoder
[20:20] <dgjones> r3n0c, out of interest, what laptop is it that you've got the sound problem with?
[20:21] <r3n0c> dgjones, toshiba satelite
[20:21] <arturo> alguien habla español
[20:21] <Cann0n> dgjones, i had the same issue with a presario r3k
[20:21] <arturo> jodete
[20:21] <Svenstaro> So can anybody help my find out how to properly construct your own Ubuntu Live CD?
[20:21] <r3n0c> none of the forums have a solution :(
[20:22] <dgjones> r3n0c, try this, double click the volume control icon in the top right, select Edit and look to see if there's a check box for a "headphone jack sense" setting, that might be the answer
[20:22] <Ashfire908> !es | artu

[20:22] <ProbeDot> I have a system installed already, and am about to put in another disk.  Can i do a software raid 1 on an already installed system?
[20:22] <tuvook> ProbeDot, yes
[20:22] <r3n0c> dgjones,  lol, thats a negative: only thing sin there: Master, PCM, CallerId, Digital, Off-hook
[20:23] <bluebanana> If www.somesite.com is known as a domain, what do you call www.somesite.com/thishere/ ?
[20:23] <Svenstaro> ProbeDot, always do a backup first :)
[20:23] <Cann0n> r3n0c, edit > prefs
[20:23] <bluebanana> Is it called a subdomain?
[20:23] <Starnestommy> bluebanana: a path or url
[20:23] <bmk789> will burning a 2GB ISO to 4.7GB DVD result in a different md5 due to the free space than the 2GB ISO's md5?
[20:23] <r3n0c> Cann0n, yea, there
[20:23] <dgjones> r3n0c, i've seen that suggested as a solution for compaq/hp laptops, maybe the toshiba is the same
[20:23] <styrman> For those that has an issue with delayed theme loading, and default skin showing briefly you can create .gtkrc-2.0 and add your theme there with: gtk-theme-name="<your theme>" and it fixes it :)

[20:24] <lordleemo> bmk789: certainly not

[20:24] <Starnestommy> jnkq: depends on which client you use
[20:24] <Cann0n> r3n0c, Headphone Jack Sense
[20:24] <bmk789> csh-harmful: are there different ways to find the md5?
[20:24] <dgjones> r3n0c, right, my laptop doesn't have it either, but i don't have a problem with it, can't think of anything else, sorry about that
[20:24] <styrman> I still have an issue with my bootsplash, i've got a .config file from gnome-look and not sure how to use it, it contains settings i need to set. The tutorial i've only found changes only the image

[20:25] <Cann0n> lol
[20:26] <bmk789> csh-harmful: so "md5sum image.iso" and "md5sum /dev/dvd" could be different?

[20:28] <Ashfire908> fabouney: you could have some rule that redirects/uses the index.php for 404.
[20:29] <Pawbie> fabouney: Check your webroot for .htaccess
[20:29] <fabouney> it's normal, because it's the default configuration

[20:30] <moDumass> ubuntu has slowed down to crawl, i want my fast beloved comp back
[20:30] <dgjones> !grub | sarthor
[20:30] <ubotu> sarthor: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[20:30] <Cann0n> moDumass, whats wrong? graphics?
[20:32] <sarthor> dgjones: i check and tried a lot, but all useless. i am wasting my time since about 7 hrs.
[20:32] <Scunizi> How do I find out the scan codes on specific keys on my keyboard?
[20:32] <neonprophet> can anyone tell me what "mount: unknown filesystem type '-o'" is supposed to mean?
[20:32] <Starnestommy> neonprophet: you probably got the parameters in the wrong order
[20:32] <moDumass> Cann0n no, gra[phics are fine, internet is almost dialup speed
[20:32] <Cann0n> neonprophet, it doesnt recognized the filesystem
[20:32] <dgjones> sarthor, are the partitions still there for ubuntu, or did the windows install completely wipe the hard drive,
[20:33] <neonprophet> I get that when I use "sudo mount -a"
[20:33] <moDumass> and shutdown takes about 10 mins
[20:33] <sarthor> dgjones: you can see there i have pasted http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60198/
[20:33] <sarthor> dgjones: ubuntu is still safe
[20:33] <Cann0n> moDumass, hmm. i dont know. try a memtest

[20:35] <metalforever> are any of you willing to give me a hand in configuring my sound?  it would be greatly appreciated
[20:35] <Penth> is there an ubuntu equivalent of apt-get install foomatic-bin ?
[20:35] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, do you get any sounds at all, did it ever work?
[20:35] <rinaldi_> !ask | metalforever
[20:35] <ubotu> metalforever: 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. :-)
[20:35] <dgjones> sarthor, when you reinstalled windows, that will have over written your boot sector removing the pointer to grub on the ubuntu partition, all i can suggest is following the link ubotu gave to resintall grub, or ask again here for somebody who's good reinstalling grub
[20:36] <Cowlol> I guess I'll give up trying to install ubuntu altogether :(
[20:36] <metalforever> im sorry, i dont usually visit the ubuntu IRC chat.  now i know.
[20:36] <Starnestommy> Cowlol: have you tried the alternate CD?
[20:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Cowlol, Some hardware just needs the alternate cd
[20:36] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, do you get any sounds at all, did it ever work?
[20:36] <Pawbie> Cowlol: Virtualize it!
[20:36] <sarthor> dgjones: ok. i am already on the link.
[20:36] <metalforever> yes, with every distro but debian.
[20:37] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, do you get any sounds at all, did it ever work? In ubuntu
[20:37] <whitehat_> hey people! BIT of a funny story windows dosen't reconize my ethernet but linux does
[20:37] <Cowlol> Jack_Sparrow, Starnestommy: I might give it a try, but I'm on dial up and it'd take a while
[20:37] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, Fixing sound.. download this: http://hg.alsa-project.org/alsa/raw-file/tip/alsa-info.sh  #and run the script as Normal User... with this command: bash ./alsa-info.sh  ... then go to http://en.pastebin.ca/906336 and answer those questions ..  then  /join #Alsa and provide them with your question and a link to the uploaded file.
[20:37] <Bob_Dole> Linux is much better with hardware than linux is

[20:37] <metalforever> sure.
[20:37] <Bob_Dole> windows* for that second bit
[20:37] <ompaul> !sound | metalforever
[20:37] <ubotu> metalforever: 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).

[20:38] <metalforever> its selected, and no its not muted.

[20:39] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, run this command: speaker-test -c2 -Ddefault -t wav -l1

[20:39] <ubotu> whitehat_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[20:39] <metalforever> i ran speaker test.
[20:39] <fabouney> somebody use, Flex builder or Zend Studio IDE ?
[20:39] <metalforever> it shows that i have working speakers.
[20:39] <whitehat_> thanks
[20:39] <Pawbie> Cowlol: So what happened?  You installed 7.10, works great, now it won't boot?
[20:39] <frutax> I found the solution for this somewhere before but I've since reinstalled and forgotten it: if i've installed sun-java5-jdk and sun-java5-jre through aptitude, how do i get my system to use that version of java? when i run java -version I still get gij (libgcj) 4.1.2
[20:39] <whitehat_> how do I enable diffrent compiz options like the cube?

[20:39] <Cowlol> err
[20:40] <Cowlol> Again, I'm having a problem installing Ubuntu 7.10 from live CD (32 bit desktop), I've verified the iso and tried burning several times but it always freezes on boot screen (while loading linux kernel). Adding noapic option stops it from freezing but only gets me a restricted xterm mode. Removing quiet and spalsh options also have the same effect.

[20:44] <Cowlol> Pawbie: It is noapic, apci=off is another option i think
[20:44] <kumarphilly> i tried ubuntu ultimiate
[20:44] <kumarphilly> and i hated it
[20:44] <metalforever> !ask  Sound is still not working.  I have tried alsaconf, i checked my speakers, i modprobed, i made sure all sound processes were terminated when running alsaconf, and i made sure my stuff isnt muted.
[20:44] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, you managed to boot again?
[20:44] <ompaul> kumarphilly, that would "offtopic" ;-)
[20:44] <kumarphilly> oops
[20:44] <metalforever> help?
[20:44] <Scunizi> anyone use a Logitech Wave? Any hints on getting the additional keys functional? Keytouch is driving me nuts..
[20:44] <kumarphilly> but im just saying.... its not easy to use..
[20:44] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, Did you get sound running the command I gave you
[20:45] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: now it won't get through loading linux kernel (original problem), even with quiet and splash options removed
[20:45] <Svenstaro> ow
[20:45] <Pawbie> Cowlol: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/difference-between-noapic-and-acpioff-kernel-parameters-454675/
[20:45] <filloy> Darn, using partitionmagic to change from vfat to ntfs there was a short circuit so now i have a pretty messed up hard drive. Can anyone help me fix it?
[20:45] <whitehat_> I just installed the compiz manger could someone please tell me how to start it
[20:45] <genii> quiet and splash options have no impact on what the kernel is doing when it boots.
[20:45] <metalforever> Jack_Sparrow : no.
[20:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Pawbie, noapic  and noacpi
[20:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Pawbie, noapic  and acpi=off rather
[20:46] <kumarphilly> why are tehre 2 FloodBots
[20:46] <metalforever> Jack_Sparrow : any other ideas?
[20:46] <jpatrick> kumarphilly: backups
[20:46] <Pawbie> Jack_Sparrow: Ya, I want to make sure he's using the right one.

[20:46] <filloy> isnt there like a hdd fix utility?
[20:46] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, you heard nothing when you ran those.?
[20:46] <kumarphilly> whats the odds of one breaking
[20:46] <metalforever> wait.
[20:46] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, did you try using acpi_timer_override?
[20:46] <whitehat_> thanks
[20:47] <metalforever> imight have missed something, do you mid pasting what you told me to do again
[20:47] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, aplay -vv /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Left.wav
[20:47] <jpatrick> kumarphilly: what are the odds of one getting lost in a netsplit?
[20:47] <Jack_Sparrow> is another one to try
[20:47] <metalforever> okay, sure.
[20:47] <kumarphilly> netsplit?
[20:47] <Cowlol> Pawbie: Interesting, but noapic used to solve my problem and pci=off didn't
[20:47] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, speaker-test -c2 -Ddefault -t wav -l1    was the first one
[20:48] <sarthor> Hi, my fdisk -l is here, now i am login on ubutnu live cd, in safe mode, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60198/ my my ubuntu is not there any more, when i reinstalled xp, Help me please
[20:48] <Svenstaro> jpatrick, depends on the node you are on, if a cluster reboots and you're on it, youre a goner
[20:48] <sarthor>  there is not boot partiton or boot loader, that washed i think, What to do now??
[20:48] <metalforever> Jack_Sparrow, PM.
[20:48] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: a boot option?
[20:48] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, yes
[20:48] <jpatrick> !netsplit > kumarphilly
[20:48] <Jack_Sparrow> sure
[20:48] <Starnestommy> kumarphilly: it's when two or more irc servers split from each other

[20:48] <Pawbie> Cowlol: Oh. :\  Sorry, then.  Don't give up. ;)  afk
[20:48] <kumarphilly> ahh
[20:48] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, is this x64 or i386 were talking bout?
[20:49] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: i386
[20:49] <Svenstaro> good
[20:49] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, do yourself a favor and try 8.04 just for fun
[20:50] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: also no luck with acpi_timer_override
[20:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Metal_Militia, I hate it when someone complains and complains.. then I figure out they are not even using ubuntu...
[20:50] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: I'm on dial-up and it'd take some time to download that :<
[20:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Metalforever, I hate it when someone complains and complains.. then I figure out they are not even using ubuntu...
[20:50] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, ow :S
[20:50] <metalforever> debian.
[20:50] <can-o-worms> can someone tell me how to reinstall something with all it's dependencies?
[20:51] <metalforever> and i have someone that is ahving the same issues in ubuntu- anyway.
[20:51] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: How stable is 8.04?
[20:51] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, its just that this is known issue which was kinda fixed now, but 7.10 doesnt contain the fixes yet
[20:51] <Jack_Sparrow> metalforever, They are NOT the same...
[20:51] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, last time I tried, 2 months ago, it was fairly stable
[20:51] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, sometimes some gdaemon app would crash but thats okay, mostly stuff not really important
[20:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Cowlol, Dont go there yet
[20:52] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: I don't know, I'm really just starting with linux and I'm not sure if I should be exxperimenting yet
[20:52] <metalforever> Jack_Sparrow: all distros are probably about 95% the same.  I have built LFS, i have used gentoo, i have used slackware.  once you use 30-40, they all begin to feel the same anyway.
[20:52] <binarical> experimentation releases the mind
[20:52] <Svenstaro> Cowlol, you'll end up with a lot more experimentation if youre going for 7.10, our hardware setup (mine is very similiar) just doesnt do here
[20:53] <Cowlol> Svenstaro: I guess that's a good point
