[00:00] <ForsakenSoul> hey so didn't catch lucas to thank him .. Shujah thanks a lot man
[00:00] <devaudio> I am on #postfix, but it appears no one  is there. Can anyone point me to a way to remove auto-signatures from incoming emails to my domain? I find how to add them in postfix, but google tells me nothing else
[00:00] <le_> unop: Tnx
[00:00] <Apophis__> hi, i am having trouble with my ubuntu hardy amd64 bit installation and bluetooth on x61s thinkpad.
[00:00] <crimsun> rgb: hmm.  Is the media file on your local HD or on an external usb mass storage device?
[00:00] <Apophis__> i can't pair my cell phone
[00:00] <beach_jf> hi
[00:00] <Apophis__> i can't even get either device to see one another
[00:01] <lenswipe> I cant get ubuntu to let me choose a start-here.png icon, can anyone help?
[00:01] <rgb> crimsun: First run it was on my HD, now I've copied it to my iPod as to play it back under the Live CD.
[00:01] <Shujah> ForsakenSoul, no problem dude :D
[00:01] <spork969> whats the quickest and easiest way to make an iso for a cd?
[00:01] <spork969> from a cd*
[00:01] <Shujah> lenswipe: you there?
[00:01] <lenswipe> Shujah: yes im here
[00:01] <devaudio> spork dd if=/dev/cdrom of=cd.iso
[00:01] <Apophis__> can anyone advise please?
[00:01] <unop> lenswipe, answers are not always available here -- you might like to check the forums, documentation and other sources for any information that might help you
[00:01] <crimsun> rgb: hmm, there's a possible usb controller issue, but I don't think it's too likely [yet]
[00:02] <Algeris> so people are still active here, flowing in the river not frozen in time
[00:02] <Shujah> lenswipe: go to usr/share/icons/human   <-thats the icon theme - change the file after renaming the last one as .old
[00:02] <crimsun> rgb: if you play the same song (so that it's cached), is the symptom reproducible?
[00:02] <rgb> crimsun: That would mean both my HD is failing AND my USB ports are fucked.  How likely are both outside of the motherboard just being dead, which isn't the case I assuem since I can still use my PC.
[00:02] <Algeris> the name aaron hall sounds familiar, who's that dude?
[00:02] <unop> !language
[00:02] <lenswipe> Shujah: TYVM!
[00:02] <W89> the computers of 64bit is more fast than 32bit?
[00:02] <rgb> crimsun: Will try.
[00:03] <rgb> crimsun: Stop > Play.
[00:03] <Apophis__> not faster, just able to process bigger sized data
[00:04] <Apophis__> k, can anyone help with bluetooth on my thinkpad x61s?
[00:04] <W89> is more better
[00:04]  * herrmess slaps self, hard.
[00:04] <Apophis__> i can find nothing on google for hardy 64 bit
[00:04]  * lenswipe laughs
[00:04] <spork969> devaudio: "dd: reading '/dev/cdrom': Input output error"
[00:04] <unop> Apophis__, the fact that you can process bigger chunks of data can mean you get the job done quicker - hence faster :) depends on the algorithm doing the data processing tho
[00:04] <luke__> how do you check your usb ports
[00:04] <Shujah> lenswipe, I havent myself changed the main menu but try usr/share/icons.human/24x24(that is default)/places/gnome-main-menu  make sure you are using human
[00:04] <MpChester> i installed ubuntu on a different harddrive then my windows installation .. ubuntu boots fine but during the bootloader it gives me the option for windows .. but when i click it it gives me "Error 25: Disk read error" Press any key to continue
[00:04] <Apophis__> yeah unop - effectively faster - but not because it's still not 45nm
[00:04] <Apophis__> :P
[00:04] <unop> W89, not much faster but see my last post
[00:05] <Shujah> MpChester, you are not giving the right hd of windows :D
[00:05] <rgb> crimsun: Thinking perhaps RAM faillure?  Song's playing fine thus far, the stuff it has already played before.
[00:05] <Apophis__> bluetooth master where art thou?
[00:05] <ScaryLptp> it's pretty hilarious that the windows key, in Ubuntu, is called the Super key, especially since I'm hating every aspect of Ubunto so far. :P
[00:05] <Algeris> format c: and all problems vanish
[00:05] <Apophis__> yes
[00:05] <Apophis__> hehe
[00:05] <Apophis__> that was the worst change in the thinkpad lineup
[00:05] <Apophis__> to add the windows key
[00:06] <spork969> devaudio: never mind, its quicker to just right click on the cd and hit copy and then choose copy to file. thanks though.
[00:06] <MpChester> Shujah:  what are my hd options? it's set at 0,0 ... should i try 0,1 .. 0,2 ... ect..
[00:06] <burner> anyone have  a .deb for rhythmbox 0.11.6?
[00:06] <acid2_> erm, any tips for getting fonts to look half decent in Ubuntu? Mainly monospace fonts - both Monospace and Inconsolata look rubbish - very blurry, and the spacing between letters is wrong
[00:06] <Apophis__> i like ubuntu
[00:06] <Apophis__> it's a good place to start
[00:06] <Musli> Where can i set amarok to the deafult player so that my keyboard shortkey will be able to use on amarok?
[00:06] <Shujah> MpChester, on ubuntu fdisk -l    <note the widows partition then sudo gedit /grub/menu.lst and change the windows hd
[00:07] <acid2_> And all monospace fonts look very light - no definition to them at all
[00:07] <MpChester> Thanks :)
[00:07] <rgb> crimsun: It played back completely this time.  Now I'm totally lost, hehe.
[00:07] <crimsun> rgb: I would not suspect bad RAM.
[00:08] <crimsun> rgb: I would suspect a controller issue if it is in fact reproducible across usb mass storage devices
[00:08] <rgb> crimsun: Ok, and the song played find after having it play to about halfway before.
[00:08] <Shujah> acid2_ mewnu>system>preferences>appearence>fonts change subpixel smoothing if on lcd
[00:08] <rgb> crimsun: Which controller?
[00:08] <crimsun> rgb: usb 2.0
[00:08] <W89> is used as the bluetoot?
[00:08] <rgb> crimsun: That would mean it should play fine over HD, no?
[00:09] <unop> burner, looks like you will have to compile from source and make the .deb yourself - even intrepid only has 11.5
[00:09] <rgb> crimsun: Which as we already found out was not the case.
[00:09] <devaudio> remove auto-sigs, should I use a .forward file or something internal to postfix
[00:09] <crimsun> rgb: note that I'm glossing over some issues; it's not necessarily hardware; it can be a kernel issue.  There's at least one known kernel issue with usb 2.0 controllers.
[00:09] <rgb> crimsun: Shall I mount the HD again and play the same song stored there?
[00:10] <Doppp> ubuntu rocks
[00:10] <crimsun> rgb: and/or try a different one not cached in RAM
[00:10] <rgb> crimsun: Will try both.
[00:10] <muibe> does anyone if there's a sensor or an application that would tell the admin if the hardware has been torn down somehow?
[00:11] <Gnea> muibe: ping
[00:11] <devaudio> torn down like a drill sargent tears down people?
[00:11] <Shujah> muibe, torn down? like teared apart or deoreciated :P
[00:11] <unop> muibe, if the admin used syslog effectively, he'd know
[00:11] <rgb> crimsun: Same song, on HD.
[00:11] <burner> unop: so much work though to get all hte plugins and what not working correctly and i'm lazy...  ;)
[00:12] <unop> burner, well, it doesn't appear that anyone has compiled it and made .debs available, i did look on PPA and intrepid - and it's only 5 minutes work :) go on, contribute to ubuntu :)
[00:13] <muibe> unop: so, such a thing could be revealed by reading a log file, right?
[00:13] <unop> muibe, right,  these three files ought to have info -  /var/log/{dmesg,kern.log,debug}
[00:13] <monostone> I need pointers where to get info regarding these error messages i got trying to burn a DVD using k9 copy -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/26546/
[00:15] <muibe> 02:13 < muibe> does anyone if there's a sensor or an application that would tell the admin if the hardware  has been torn down somehow?
[00:15] <kushal1> I am on Ubuntu 8.04. During a routine update, I was asked to confirm if I accepted or denied Sun's Java license. What is it about?
[00:15] <Shujah> kushal1, sun java is not free, so the license
[00:15] <Gnea> muibe: you're still asking a vague question. please redefine it.
[00:15] <Amaranth> kushal1: the java EULA must have been upgraded
[00:15] <rgb> crimsun: Same song, only on HD, plays back fine.  Trying a different song on the HD now.
[00:16] <kushal1> is there something I should be concerned about? I am just an end user.
[00:16] <Amaranth> no
[00:16] <Shujah> no
[00:16] <kushal1> thanks to all of you
[00:16] <muibe> Gnea: problem is that i have a potential risk of someone being able to change something inside the machine and i must make the utmost to avoid such a thing - that's why i asked
[00:16] <Amaranth> it's just stupid legal politics
[00:16] <Shujah> other then nightmares about using non-free softwares :P
[00:16] <enmasse> hello
[00:16] <enmasse> guys
[00:17] <enmasse> need URGENT HELP
[00:17] <enmasse> WITH UBUNTU
[00:17] <Gnea> muibe: well, we do software support in here.
[00:17] <Gnea> !caps | enmasse
[00:17] <kushal1> enmasse, what is it?
[00:17] <enmasse> :D, i'm a newbie linux and have decided to finally make the switch from xp to linux
[00:17] <kushal1> yay
[00:17] <teq> hi enmasse
[00:17] <enmasse> because going from xp to vista is just stupid
[00:17] <enmasse> hi teq
[00:17] <teq> good choice
[00:17] <enmasse> so i decided to go with ubuntu
[00:17] <Gnea> heh
[00:17] <enmasse> i've heard good things
[00:17] <Shujah> enmasse: lucky us witnessing the switch with our very own eyes :P
[00:17] <teq> yeah its gr8
[00:17] <muibe> Gnea: well, i thought a software could sensor it
[00:17] <enmasse> :)
[00:18] <enmasse> well one thing
[00:18] <roler> how severe is this OpenSSL Flaw that's out there? GoDaddy just sent us an eMail
[00:18] <teq> lol
[00:18] <muibe> Gnea: but thanks for help anyway
[00:18] <enmasse> i used to use a program called Vidalia (Tor+Privoxy)
[00:18] <alecwh> I just installed SAMBA, but whenever I try to activate sharing for a folder, it says: 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error Permission denied You do not have permission to create a usershare. Ask your administrator to grant you permissions to create a share.
[00:18] <alecwh> What's wrong, and how do I fix ti?
[00:18] <alecwh> it*
[00:18] <Gnea> muibe: well, if you have a ping running on it over the network every so often, you could at least tell whenever it goes offline
[00:18] <burner> unop: i could compile it... but i can't package things.  I've read tutorials.  I've looked at daniel holbach's video cast, but I just can't do it
[00:18] <teq> hey guys I think i fucked up my repository how can i get it back? thanks
[00:18] <enmasse> i've heard you can set that up on ubuntu but how do i go about install Tor + Privoxy on Hardy Heron?
[00:18] <LieZ^> hi im trying to install dbus-x11 from .deb, however when i do it says it confilcts with dbus, what should i do ?
[00:19] <enmasse> and one more thing how do i see the user list, xchat is NOTHING like mirc
[00:19] <enmasse> :D
[00:19] <rgb> crimsun: The different, shorter and lower bitrate, song played back completely.
[00:19] <muibe> Gnea: hey, that's it! you're right! i try out
[00:19] <panfist> hello, i was wondering if anyone could recommend a good sound card that is linux compatible.
[00:19] <teq> enmasse: try irssi
[00:19] <kushal1> enmasse, I know you don't want to flood the channel but you can write two or three lines and it would not be considered flooding. It makes for easier reading. Please don't take it personally.
[00:19] <rgb> crimsun: Questionmarks as to what the heck's happening are growing, hehehe.
[00:19] <teq> enmasse: do to a terminal and type sudo apt-get install irssi
[00:19] <enmasse> okay teq
[00:19] <teq> enmasse: i like it better
[00:19] <LieZ^> hi im trying to install dbus-x11 from .deb, however when i do it says it confilcts with dbus, what should i do ?
[00:20] <enmasse> whats the terminal???
[00:20] <teq> lol
[00:20] <enmasse> >.<
[00:20] <rgb> enmasse, don't bother with Irssi then just yet I'd say.
[00:20] <teq> enmasse: accessories > terminal
[00:20] <enmasse> wait nvm found it
[00:20] <enmasse> :D
[00:20] <Gnea> enmasse: click on applications->accessories->terminal
[00:20] <ubunubi> LieZ^: why are you installing from *deb instead of the official repo?
[00:20] <enmasse> im there
[00:20] <LieZ^> tis not in the repo
[00:20] <ra21vi> unop: yes I am using the same method, but not calling self in same script
[00:20] <teq> hey guys I think i fucked up my repository how can i get it back? thanks
[00:20] <kushal1> do you already use ff3? if so, try chatzilla. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chatzilla
[00:20] <Gnea> LieZ^: why do you need it?
[00:20] <LieZ^> deluge torrent client :D
[00:20] <enmasse> teq can i copy and paste what you told me to do sudo apt-get install irssi
[00:20] <Gnea> !language | teq
[00:21] <ubunubi> LieZ^: both dbus-x11 and dbus are both in the repo
[00:21] <hiptobecubic> i have ssh'd to another box using the -X flag to enable X11, but how can i start apps and have them show up on the remote display instead of my local display
[00:21] <ubunubi> LieZ^: and installed by default on my system anyway
[00:21] <LieZ^> are they? hold on a sec
[00:21] <teq> enmasse: yes
[00:21] <ra21vi> unop: filename is ${USER}.foo.bar would always be root.foo.bar when executed with sudo
[00:21] <herrmess> enmasse: System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager-> Search for Privoxy
[00:21] <Shujah> enmasse, tor & privoxy are on ubuntu repos so should work without any tweaking? have you tried installing them
[00:21] <ubunubi> LieZ^: version 1.1.20-1ubuntu2 (for both)
[00:22] <herrmess> Both Privoxy and Tor are there, mark them for install.
[00:22] <enmasse> shuraj im confused on HOW TO install them
[00:22] <enmasse> okay will do herrmess, what i tried was going to the main site for tor and getting it from there
[00:22] <enmasse> what does this mean sudo apt-get install irssi?
[00:22] <teq> hey guys I think i fcked my repository how can i get it back? thanks
[00:22] <ubunubi> teq: we need more details than that
[00:22] <trashguy> enmasse, it istall the irc client irrsi
[00:23] <LieZ^> im getting package-dbus-x11 has no installation candidate?
[00:23] <enmasse> trashguy, i've installed the client where do i find it though?
[00:23] <Shujah> open gnome menu > system > administration > synaptic manager (search for tor) select press apply and so on
[00:23] <teq> ubunubi: packages that should be in the repo are not there
[00:23] <trashguy> enmasse, type irssi
[00:23] <unop> ra21vi, you shouln't call the same script itself, you need to call another script passing the filename as an argument - sorry if that name "myscript" mislead you
[00:23] <ubunubi> LieZ^: are you on an up-to-date hardy intsall?
[00:23] <teq> ubunubi: how can i reconfigure it?
[00:23] <rgb> crimsun: Copy?
[00:23] <LieZ^> ubuntu server my good man
[00:23] <izmeh> man, i'm loving linux
[00:24] <hlfshell> hey guys - trying to advise a friend with clonezilla. anyone know of a repository that has the package for it or am i going to have to walk him through installing it?
[00:24] <zyrorl_> izmeh - id love it more if i could somehow unlock draft-n wireless on it:S
[00:24] <ubunubi> LieZ^: dunno what to tell ya. both of them are showing installed, and in the repo and up to date for me, and i only have the default repo's turned on
[00:24] <perhamlinux> Gnea, are you there?
[00:24] <izmeh> zyrorl_: wish i could help ya
[00:24] <ubunubi> LieZ^: search for x11 and dbus with a space between them, and Name and Description turned on
[00:24] <ubunubi> LieZ^: in synaptic
[00:24] <solexious> [Q] Is there a ubuntu command line program to see the status of a jetdirect printer?
[00:25] <bayden> can movies run on ubuntu
[00:25] <LieZ^> soound like a noob mode, how do i get on synaptic im only used to working with CLI
[00:25] <ubunubi> bayden: sure if you install the correct codecs from mediabuntu
[00:25] <Shaba1> what type of movies bayden
[00:25] <ali__> hey guys
[00:25] <Shaba1> In other words what video formats are you talking about
[00:25] <ubunubi> LieZ^: do you have an X desktop environment setup?
[00:25] <ali__> its me enmasse on irssi
[00:25] <ali__> :D
[00:26] <bayden> well the dark knight
[00:26] <LieZ^> yes im on vnc and ssh now two connections
[00:26] <enmasse> hey im ali on irssi
[00:26] <bayden> a 2 or 3 hour movie
[00:26] <zyrorl_> bayden:  if you mean porn yes.
[00:26] <ubunubi> LieZ^: just gksudo synaptic then
[00:26] <Shujah> enmasse had such a french seductive touch to it :(
[00:26] <zyrorl_> if you mean anything else, no it wont work
[00:26] <enmasse> lol
[00:26] <bayden> ooo where can i find tHAT
[00:26] <bayden> =)
[00:26] <bayden> LOL
[00:26] <zyrorl> just do an apt-get install vlc
[00:26] <zyrorl> it'll play anything
[00:27] <bayden> mediabuntu?
[00:27] <lenswipe> terminal keeps crashing when i start it, anyone got ny ideas??
[00:27] <zyrorl> or mplayer but you'll probably want mplayer-gui as well
[00:27] <lenswipe> terminal keeps crashing when i start it, anyone got ny ideas??
[00:27] <monostone> I love xine
[00:27] <bayden> do i just download it then install it?
[00:27] <lenswipe> terminal keeps crashing when i start it, anyone got ny ideas??
[00:27] <rgb> zyrorl: It's also horrible with subtitle tracks.
[00:27] <zyrorl> or xine
[00:27] <monostone> it plays dvd isos, everything
[00:27] <ubunubi> !patience | lens
[00:27] <Shujah> lenswipe, have you edited the terminal profiles
[00:27] <zyrorl> rgb - i speak english... natively so i dont need subs
[00:27] <zyrorl> usually
[00:27] <lenswipe> Shujah: not that i know of...
[00:27] <teq> lenswipe: try sudo aptitude upgrade && update
[00:27] <zyrorl> but yeah vlc's subtitles rendering is horrible
[00:27] <overlordpuppy> Is there a mlt and mlt++ package?
[00:27] <lenswipe> teq: i cant, terminal keeps crashing...
[00:28] <acid2_> Shujah: that doesn't fix the fact that characters overlap with some fonts
[00:28] <ubunubi> lenswipe: you'll probably have to reboot into recovery mode
[00:28] <teq> ctrl+alt+f1 and then do that
[00:28] <rgb> zyrorl: Many English speakers require subtitles to watch certain content.  Not every English Speaker watches only video in the English language.
[00:28] <Shaba1> I use vlc
[00:28] <lenswipe> ubunbi: and do what?
[00:28] <Shaba1> though I need to find another dvd burning program for windows
[00:28] <rgb> In my case, yeah I need my subtitles.
[00:29] <Shaba1> I have an old copy of nero vision experss that has seen its best days
[00:29] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: what do i do when im in recovery mode?
[00:29] <zyrorl> rgb:  i can also speak portuguese natively, and am fluent in spanish and can understand french and german
[00:29] <LieZ^> ubunubi: must be something wrong with my repos its not showing
[00:29] <zyrorl> :P
[00:29] <zyrorl> i agree though... vlcs subs are pretty poor
[00:29] <rgb> zyrorl: Similar here, English, Dutch, German and French.
[00:29] <ubunubi> lenswipe: i'd assume delete your bash profile
[00:29] <rgb> zyrorl: Speak the first two, understand the latter.
[00:29] <zyrorl> i'm assuming you watch many asian movies?
[00:30] <rgb> zyrorl: Yup.
[00:30] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: and how do i do that?
[00:30] <zyrorl> fair enough
[00:30] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: try alt+f2,  sudo gnome-terminal and see if it launches. if it does, it's just a matter of removing your user profile
[00:30] <aesonn> hello, anyone here have any experience using oracle 10g express on ubuntu?
[00:30] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: kk
[00:30] <Shujah> who was asking about the subs ?
[00:30] <rgb> zyrorl: Chinese and Japanese are a bit too hard to learn quickly at sufficient level.
[00:30] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: er gksudo gnome-terminal, sorry
[00:31] <LieZ^> ubunubi: should it matter if i get it from the repos i got it from the ubuntu download site
[00:31] <monostone> how i would love to see my GTO and Gundam seed without subs
[00:31] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: kk
[00:31] <monostone> hehe
[00:31] <zyrorl> rgb - that is true., trust me i know, i went to malaysia for a week and could understand more malay than chinese/japanese lol
[00:31] <zyrorl> (not that i heard any japanese when i was there)
[00:31] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: yeh works fine.
[00:31] <ubunubi> LieZ^: it's always preferred to install from the repo, so all the depencies and whatnot can be managed, and an uninstall be easy and be sure you don't have any conflicts
[00:31] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: now what..
[00:31] <ubunubi> LieZ^: you should double check you have all the offical repo's turned on
[00:32] <aesonn> can you install oracle from the repo?
[00:32] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: did alt+f2, gksudo gnome-terminal ..launch you a terminal?
[00:32] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: yes it did, now what?
[00:32] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: there should be a hidden directory with your bash profile in your home directory..can't recall the exact path
[00:32] <Jai`Lemon> Anyone ever heard of ChaCha? (chacha.com) - I work for them from home making $15/hour, google it, it's reputable. Just thought I'd share it. I have invites if anyone wants. It's hard to get hired without one. You get paid via a refillable debit card anytime you want. It's linked a real checking account. It's a real company, you work as an indepent contractor. The job and money is real. Want an invite or to know more? PM me.
[00:32] <Shujah> Lenny_, open edit > profiles > make a new profile
[00:33] <Shujah> Jai 'Lemon: is advertising :|
[00:33] <lenswipe> yep
[00:33] <lenswipe> kick him
[00:33] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: you should look for a ~/.bashrc file
[00:33] <rgb> He's already gone.
[00:34] <rgb> Standard spammer, join, wait, paste, part.
[00:34] <ra21vi> unop: ok thanks :) but still need to know what is effective UID
[00:34] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: i found it, do i delete it?
[00:34] <Shujah> work as an independent contractor <_my @(*(*
[00:35] <bayden> man it was 1000s of comics not a movie
[00:35] <bayden> =(
[00:35] <ubunubi> lenswipe: sure. it should be re-created when you launch a regular terminal
[00:35] <bayden> i downloaded2.3 gb for that
[00:35] <Shujah> bayden: ?
[00:35] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: kk sec
[00:35] <rgb> Hrm... playing H264 video on a Live CD might be too much.
[00:35] <Shujah> bayden, looks like you downloaded manga instead of animes
[00:35] <unbuntu> can someone help me with display server problem
[00:35] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: the terminal still keeps crashing
[00:36] <bayden> well im downloading kungfu panda it should be the movie because its 700 mb
[00:36] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: that didnt help at all :(
[00:36] <unbuntu> can someone help me with display server problem
[00:36] <Shujah> lenswipe, dude make a new profile and make it default
[00:36] <rgb> bayden: Eh, it being 700 MB does not guarantee that it's a movie.
[00:36] <lenswipe> shujah: HOW????
[00:37] <rgb> bayden: Might also be a game, or just more useless padded anti-p2p files.
[00:37] <bayden> it is
[00:37] <lenswipe> Shujah: i cant open the terminal...
[00:37] <overlordpuppy> Is there a package for openlibraries?
[00:37] <lenswipe> Shujah: it opens then crashes straight away
[00:37] <rgb> bayden: Phew heheh.
[00:37] <Shujah> lenswipe, alt+f2 type and enter sudo terminal
[00:37] <bayden> thats the space of a movie and its kung fu panda.avi
[00:37] <bayden> avi is a clip or movie
[00:37] <lenswipe> shujah: kk done that
[00:37] <unop> ra21vi, when you set a binary as setuid and use a call such as seteuid()/setreuid() to escalate process privileges -- EUID is the ID of the user whose privileges are being used by the binary after the call, RUID or UID is the ID of the user who invoked the binary -- this does not really apply to scripts tho, only compiled binaries
[00:37] <lenswipe> Shujah: now what?
[00:37] <lenswipe> Shujah: i got a root terminal what do i do now?
[00:37] <Shujah> Lenny_, edit>profiles enter
[00:38] <Musli> can anyone help me i'm really in need for some help
[00:38] <rgb> bayden: That's not correct.  Sure, most movies are encoded to a target size of 700 MB to fit on a CD, but it can just as well be 2 gigabytes for quality.
[00:38] <lenswipe> what do i call it?
[00:38] <rgb> Saying it's a movie _because_ it's 700 MB is wrong thinking.
[00:38] <Shujah> lenswipe, edit > profiles > new
[00:38] <lenswipe> Shujah: what do i call it?
[00:38] <makkbe_> Musli: help with what?
[00:38] <Musli> i cant get the damn flash thing to work correct some sites i cant even visit because of to much lag
[00:38] <Shujah> lenswipe, call it anything your username on machine
[00:38] <majortool> how do i set shortcuts for individual applications in gnome
[00:38] <majortool> ?
[00:39] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: while you're in that sudo terminal  rm -r ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles -- if his suggestion doesn't work
[00:39] <bayden> but its 700mb it says
[00:39] <Shujah> lenswipe, base it on default
[00:39] <lenswipe> Shujah: your sujjestion did not wok
[00:39] <rgb> bayden: Never mind.  I apparently can't make myself understandable, sorry.
[00:39] <lenswipe> Shujah: shall i: rm -r ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles
[00:40] <Shujah> lenswipe, ubunubi can guide you to that solution
[00:40] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: shall i just run rm -r ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles
[00:40] <ubunubi> lenswipe: i would
[00:40] <lenswipe> kk
[00:40] <krel> is there any way to use xvnc4viewer in fullscreen without needing to exit fullscreen mode to change workspaces?
[00:40] <ubunubi> lenswipe: doing it will narrow down possiblities
[00:41] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: still doesnt work
[00:41] <krel> or is there a vnc viewer that will let you do that?
[00:41] <Shujah> lenswipe, what happens when you make a new profile, terminal just crashes?
[00:41] <lenswipe> Shujah: no it lets me make a new profile in the sudo terminal
[00:41] <Kohlrak> i installed vmware with aptitude and i have to get rid of it to re-install it right. Anyone have any ideas on how to do this?
[00:41] <lenswipe> its just when i open my terminal it doesnt work
[00:41] <crimsun> rgb: right
[00:42] <Musli> i cant get the damn flash thing to work correct some sites i cant even visit because of to much lag
[00:42] <Shujah> lenswipe, then it will take you to the customizable part, colors and all?
[00:42] <lenswipe> Shujah: yep
[00:42] <rgb> crimsun: Any ideas?
[00:42] <crimsun> rgb: at this point, because we've ruled out ALSA and PulseAudio, you'd need to do some legwork on patterns
[00:42] <Kohlrak> musli, hardy or gutsy?
[00:42] <Musli> hardy
[00:42] <Shujah> lenswipe, there change the color to black on white
[00:42] <lenswipe> Shujah: i can completely remake a terminal profile, its just when i open my terminal from Applications:Terminal it crashes
[00:42] <Kohlrak> you using the nonfree plugin or gnash?
[00:43] <rgb> crimsun: Okay.  No idea what you mean.
[00:43] <mattx86> is there a guide for setting up a samba (standalone with unix user authentication) on ubuntu server 8.04 lts?
[00:43] <lenswipe> Shujah: done.
[00:43] <crimsun> rgb: I mean that you can see under what conditions the freezes occur.  Only after a fresh boot while playing media from local HD? etc.
[00:43] <Shujah> lenswipe, then sudo terminal again and make the new profile default i.e. open newname profile when launching
[00:43] <Musli> this lag is really bugging me :(
[00:43] <Kohlrak> musli, gnash or nonfree?
[00:43] <jyoseph> anyone have a program they'd recommend for capturing video on your screen?
[00:44] <lenswipe> Shujah: im not with..., just make another profile?
[00:44] <rgb> crimsun: Ah, that kind of patterning.
[00:44] <jyoseph> i.e. - gawker
[00:44] <crimsun> rgb: without using systrace, it's a bit difficult for me to continue.
[00:44] <Shujah> nope have you made a new profile yet... ?
[00:44] <lenswipe> Shujah: i have 1 profile apart from Default, thats all
[00:44] <Musli> nonfree
[00:44] <powertool08> Does anyone know which config file has info on programs which autostart with kde because they were running in the last saved session?
[00:44] <theLichKing> my wireless connection works only when it wants to.. is there a fix to this.. i'm using ndiswrapper for it and it's WPA protected
[00:44] <rgb> crimsun: Okay.
[00:45] <swegner> Hi all.  Anyone heard any talk about when we'll see a live CD for intrepid alpha 2?
[00:45] <Kohlrak> that's odd, what site is it, musli? I don't have any problems with flash.
[00:45] <Shujah> lenswipe, now alt+f2 sudo terminal > edit > profiles> make the newprofileyoumade* be the one to lauch the option will be there
[00:45] <dolphin_noel> anyone here having having troubles whith amsn?! .... and ubuntu?! because i put the path but looks no path is working ...:x
[00:45] <crimsun> rgb: sorry, mean systemtap
[00:45] <Musli> it's a swedish site www.aftonbladet.se
[00:45] <Musli> lags as hell
[00:45] <teq> How can i make an exact copy of my internal drive to an external one? thanks
[00:45] <lenswipe> Shujah: when i launch terminal from the applications menu it apears, but there are no buttons on the dropdown menu bar like File and Edit
[00:45] <rgb> crimsun: Don't know that program either, so doesn't make much difference.
[00:45] <lenswipe> Shujah: then it just crashes
[00:45] <eaglejazz> hey im having a wireless card problem, i have a toshiba laptop and atheros card, any help that can be offered
[00:46] <powertool08> teq: look into dd if you are comfortable with cli
[00:46] <teq> powertool08: pardon?
[00:46] <Kohlrak> you mean flickers when you go up and down musli?
[00:46] <Shujah> lenswipe, so the new profile is selected to launch not default?
[00:46] <SpudDogg> Does anyone know the line to add to the mediatomb config to add content?  I don't like the GUI way.
[00:46] <lenswipe> Shujah: sec
[00:46] <Musli> yeah and it gets stuck and things
[00:47] <powertool08> teq: for an exact copy of a partition, dd /dev/old partition /dev/new partition
[00:47] <rgb> crimsun: Any idea on how it's related to video and those interupting during playback?
[00:47] <Musli> and my cpu is like on 90 % all the time on that site
[00:47] <monostone> what function does the clone output in compiz serve?
[00:47] <Kohlrak> musli, nothing you can do. It's a problem in every OS and it's the site owner's fault.
[00:47] <teq> powertool08: how do i check the name of my hd?
[00:47] <Musli> is it?
[00:47] <Kohlrak> He has too much flash, too many images, and so forth
[00:47] <Kohlrak> it's getting to my cpu as well, even when the window isn't in focus
[00:47] <Musli> did it lag for u kohlrak?
[00:47] <Shujah> lenswipe, edit > profile > profile used when launching a new terminal > yournewprofilename
[00:47] <powertool08> teq: gparted, fdisk,
[00:47] <rgb> Musli, what site?
[00:47] <lenswipe> Shujah: i know
[00:47] <paul_5666> hi all, i just accidentally deleted all the files in one of my folders, ive unmounted that drive, and im trying to use e2undel but it wont make. does anybody know any other solutions.
[00:48] <Musli> www.aftonbladet.se
[00:48] <rgb> Musli: If you use Firefox you can install FlashBlock.
[00:48] <Musli> cant do anything on that site
[00:48] <lenswipe> Shujah: ive done that but when i launch a terminal it launches in black on white
[00:48] <Musli> i have flashblock rgb
[00:48] <rgb> Musli: That way the flash doesn't get loaded when you visit the site.
[00:48] <lenswipe> Shujah: and it crashes
[00:48] <rgb> Musli: Only after you let it.
[00:48] <Shujah> so whjat does it crash
[00:48] <powertool08> teq: its usually /dev/hda where hda could be hdb, sda, sdb, etc
[00:48] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: my next solution would be opening synaptic and search for gnome-terminal, and set it to: reinstall
[00:48] <Shujah> lenswipe, wait a sec lemme check something
[00:48] <lenswipe> Shujah: PM me and ill speak to you there
[00:48] <lenswipe> Shujah its hard to explain on 1 line
[00:49] <Kohlrak> Musli, that site is 70% images, 10% flash, and 19% javascript, have fun
[00:49] <teq> powertool08: would that be "dd" or "cp"?
[00:49] <rgb> Musli: I can visit the site fine, but that's because I have no flash installed due to using the Live CD atm.
[00:49] <rgb> Musli: So if you wish to use that site, using Firefox with the Flashblock add-on will help you.
[00:49] <Musli> yeah rgb i know i used the live cd and it worked fine for me to
[00:49] <powertool08> teq: dd copies byte per byte, cp is usued for moving single files, small folders
[00:50] <paul_5666> hi all, i just accidentally deleted all the files in one of my folders, ive unmounted that drive, and im trying to use e2undel but it wont make. does anybody know any other solutions.
[00:50] <Kohlrak> rgb, the problem is the site not flash. Flash isn't even so much the problem as all the images. Look at them. Not to mention it's go a javascript thing going down the right side.
[00:50] <teq> powertool08: thanks man
[00:50] <flavio> alguem fala portugues?
[00:50] <powertool08> teq: np
[00:50] <achilles> I accidentally removed myself as admin can anyone tell me how to fix this???
[00:50] <ubunubi> paul_5666: you mean it won't compile...or isn't recovering your files properly?
[00:50] <rgb> Kohlrak: Flashblock takes out all the flash that might be on the site.
[00:51] <paul_5666> ubunubi: wont compile
[00:51] <rgb> If the Javascript is messing up, also use NoScript, which you should be using anyways if you use Firefox.
[00:51] <lensy> Shujah: my whole laptop just died
[00:51] <ubunubi> paul_5666: why are you trying to compile it? crap the version from Synaptic so you don't have to compile it
[00:51] <Starnestommy> achilles: go into recovery mode, then do gpasswd -a <username> admin
[00:51] <ubunubi> paul_5666: grab*
[00:51] <paul_5666> ubunubi: ok thanks
[00:51] <Kohlrak> rgb, that might work. Flash gets in the way of good flash sites though, but they're few
[00:52] <rgb> Kohlrak: You can choose to let a site use flash when you have Flashblock installed.
[00:52] <SirBob1701> so i have apache2 install and installed mod-ruby but its not parsy my ruby files...
[00:52] <solexious> [Q] Is there a ubuntu command line program to see the status of a jetdirect printer?
[00:52] <rgb> It's a single click to allow an embedded swf to start.
[00:52] <Shujah> lenswipe, dude there is a workaround but its a bit complicated, manual entries
[00:52] <joshual> hi, has anyone successfully installed joomla locally on hardy?

[00:54] <befr0d> !br | flavio

[00:54] <jil1> ?

[00:54] <ubunubi> Kohlrak: vmware tools or server or player?
[00:55] <Kohlrak> ubunubi, everything. THe server is what the new installation is complaining about, but i'll have to get rid of it all
[00:55] <lenswipe> Shujar: Ok my terminal works now

[00:55] <ubunubi> Kohlrak: just sudo rm -r /etc/vmware ..and it'll let you attempt a new install
[00:55] <Shujah> except....
[00:55] <Kohlrak> thanks
[00:55] <lenswipe> Shujar: i cant push any of the buttons at the top like File and Edit
[00:55] <rgb> crimsun: I will do some patterning tomorrow.  Going to sleep for now.  Thanks for the help, and good night.
[00:56] <lenswipe> Shujar: any ideas?
[00:56] <Shujah> hmm I have never heard of this particular problem before, try making the default profile the one to launch

[00:57] <glitsj16> SirBob1701: did you activate the module after installing it ? if not, try a2enmod <mod-name> and restart apache
[00:57] <digitaltao> hey guys, any idea why the archive manager would not work with a RAR archive?
[00:57] <derspankster> flash videos cause my laptop to overheat (hardy) anyone else having this problem
[00:57] <swegner> digitalao: you need to install rar and unrar
[00:57] <paul_5666> ubunubi: ive installed it, but does e2undel read ntfs file systems?
[00:57] <digitaltao> apt-get install rar?
[00:57] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: something like that, so where do i go from here?
[00:57] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: reinstall?
[00:57] <ubunubi> paul_5666: no. it's for e2 (ext2), as the name implies
[00:58] <swegner> digitaltao: sudo apt-get install rar unrar
[00:58] <digitaltao> thanks swegner
[00:58] <c0mrade> is it possible to create binary file from sh script ? so no one can read its content .. but be able to run it?
[00:58] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: try to reinstall gnome-terminal from synaptic
[00:58] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: thx i will
[00:58] <paul_5666> ubunubi: o damn ==" what software can i get to recover from ntfs?
[00:58] <Claw6> Q: I need to restore my xorg.conf how to do that ?
[00:58] <ubunubi> paul_5666: sounds like you need to install ntfsprogs package from synaptic..it contains an ntfsundelete
[00:58] <td123> digitaltao: Go to the synaptic package manager, and you will find plenty of neat things in their :)
[00:59] <Shujah> digitaltao, install unrar
[00:59] <swegner> c0mrade: you can edit the permissions on it to remove read access, but that won't help if you plan to distribute it to others
[00:59] <paul_5666> ubunubi: cheers
[00:59] <xzenome> c0mrade, I'm not sure. But could you not just chmod it so that no one has read access to it?
[00:59] <td123> *there
[00:59] <joshual> can anyone recomend a way to install lamp on hardy please?
[00:59] <Kohlrak> what's lamp?
[00:59] <digitaltao> ;) yea the package manager is fun.... when i searched for RAR earlier there was like 10000 items
[00:59] <c0mrade> its actually mailserver configuration script .. I don't file like sharing it :) but still i would give people to use it ..
[01:00] <Shujah> 10000 items :|
[01:00] <eaglejazz> tried ndiswrapper (windows driver - .inf) and madwifi for atheros wireless card to be discovered..when i go to cli to type in iwconfig i get no extension avaliabe for card
[01:00] <swegner> joshual: have you looked into installing hardy from the server CD?
[01:00] <magnetron> digitaltao, searching by description will yield more results than searching by name only
[01:00] <digitaltao> ooooooo
[01:00] <izmeh> joshual: check out xampp
[01:00] <digitaltao> good to know manetron ;)
[01:00] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: how exactly do i reinstall gnome-terminal once ive found it in synaptic
[01:00] <td123> joshual: just install the amp, you already have the l :)
[01:00] <paul_5666> ubunubi: how do i use ntfsprogs? or more specifically how do i use ntfsundelete
[01:01] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: it wont let me right click on it
[01:01] <joshual> swegner: yeah but its a bit unecessary ive heard you can install it just as easily on desktop
[01:01] <ubunubi> paul_5666: after installing ntfsprogs...type  ntfsundelete --help
[01:01] <ubunubi> paul_5666: then follow the instructions :P
[01:01] <paul_5666> ubunubi: ok
[01:01] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: i think synaptic is starting without superuser privaliges for some reason....
[01:02] <td123> joshual: if you really want to know, go to synaptic package manager, look for apache mysql and php, and install those
[01:02] <Tomasso> is there any easy wayto get kde4 working on ubuntu ?
[01:02] <Silivrenion> why is update-initramfs disabled on livecd's?

[01:02] <joshual> td123: ok thats what i thought
[01:02] <ubunubi> Silivrenion: because...you can't write to the CD?
[01:02] <Claw6> Q: I need to restore my xorg.conf how to do that ?
[01:02] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: no it is starting with super user privaliges, its just the left click that randomly doesnt work

[01:03] <Devman> can someone tell me where the duel screen setup is on ubuntu?
[01:03] <td123> joshual: lamp is not an abreviation for a package lol, although you could check if they have a dummy package called lamp
[01:03] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: i wouldnt care but i havent done anything...
[01:04] <gregor> libdevmapper-dev, description: it allow usage of the device-mapper <--- there is a s missing...

[01:06] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: i would if i knew what to google for...
[01:07] <burner> Devman: gksudo displayconfig-gtk
[01:07] <td123> Devman: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=ubuntu+dual+monitor&btnG=Google+Search
[01:07] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: "Ubuntu randomly doesnt work?"
[01:07] <Devman> burner: thanks a lot
[01:07] <Devman> burner: Worked like a charm
[01:07] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: i mean theres other things too
[01:08] <Commie_Jebus> how do you make the gnome-xchat show the users on a sidebar and not a menu?
[01:08] <Shujah> lenswipe: ?????
[01:08] <AutoMatriX> Hi folks  ! is there a way in 'command-line' to remove the lines starting with the char '*' or containing the char'*' at a fixed position ?
[01:08] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: be googling for locations of bash and terminal and gnome-terminal profiles..since it works for sudo and not your user...it's gotta be a user specific profile problem
[01:08] <unop> c0mrade, http://www.comeaucomputing.com/faqs/ccshdoc.html # but not a good idea, you work on open-source and you release closed-source -- that's not the spirit
[01:08] <Shujah> dude open your terminal and press f-10
[01:08] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: like window layering,
[01:08] <td123> Devman: that was the 8th thing on googles list (1st page) you naughty person you
[01:08] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: if you have tons of issues, and it all _used_ to be working, sure you can reinstall if you want to kill them in one swoop
[01:08] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: when i click on say the applications menu, it apears beneath any maximised windows
[01:08] <blue112> Hello, need some help to make my webcam works on skype and xawtv at the same time : Its says that the device is busy.
[01:08] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: are you using compiz?
[01:08] <swegner> AutoMatriX: it sounds like you need grep or sed
[01:08] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: i really dont want to reinstall
[01:08] <unop> AutoMatriX,  grep -vi "^char '\*'" file
[01:08] <Devman> td123: IRC is more fun
[01:08] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: yes im using compiz
[01:08] <ERGLupin> im trying to install 8.04.1 on a 2GB thumb drive
[01:08] <ERGLupin> it says it isnt big enough
[01:08] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: do you _need_ compiz?
[01:09] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: not really
[01:09] <AutoMatriX> swen
[01:09] <td123> Devman: understand that I'm trying to help you
[01:09] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: id like to have it tho
[01:09] <ERGLupin> nut the guide on the site says you only need 1GB
[01:09] <AutoMatriX> swegner, thanks I guess so
[01:09] <blue112> It works on skype, it works on xawtv, but not together at the same time. Could you help me ?
[01:09] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: disabling it until it's more stable will help solve a ton of random things
[01:09] <AutoMatriX> uncleclinto, thansk so much dear ;)
[01:09] <Devman> td123: I know, I would normally use google, but I didn't know what to search for
[01:09] <ERGLupin> if anyone could tell me what is wrong it would be appreciated
[01:09] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: ty
[01:09] <enmasse> hey guys i asked about if i could run tor + privoxy on ubuntu hardy and im guessing what i need is Tork.  One thing it says that Tork is for KDE but Ubuntu has Gnome, lets just say I wanted to try this KDE; how would i do that?
[01:09] <Devman> td123: Understand that I'm not lazy =) Just confused a but
[01:09] <Devman> *bit
[01:09] <ozzloy> http://xrl.us/kkk7p  i'm having the erroneous relative URL problem.  can someone help me with it?
[01:10] <Commie_Jebus> how do you make the gnome-xchat show the users on a sidebar and not a menu?
[01:10] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: install fusion-icon ...and alt+f2  metacity --replace ...and see if your layering issues clear up instantly
[01:10] <td123> Devman: don't be afraid to google obscure things, I searched "dual monitor ubuntu" and it was the 8th thing on the return :)
[01:10] <enmasse> waht does erroneous mean?
[01:10] <Shujah> enmasse, install tork some kde files will be installed with it if you want to remain on ubuntu
[01:10] <Devman> td123: Got it. Thanks =)
[01:10] <ozzloy> enmasse: it should be absolute instead of relative
[01:10] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: no they dont
[01:10] <blue112> Hello, need some help to make my webcam works on skype and xawtv at the same time : Its says that the device is busy.
[01:10] <enmasse> kk
[01:10] <ozzloy> enmasse: "erroneous" is similar to "incorrect"
[01:10] <enmasse> i see
[01:11] <draginxx> Is there anyway that I can connect to http://localhost within FF without getting that "Firefox cant browse the web in offline mode" error?
[01:11] <Commie_Jebus> enmasse: you could use vidalia for GTK/gnome :)
[01:11] <enmasse> hmm whats this GTK?
[01:11] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: you installed fusion-icon and ran metacity --replace, that quickly?
[01:11] <lenswipe> --ubuntubi: the file metacity--replace cannot be found
[01:11] <Shujah> GTK = Grand Theft Kauto :P
[01:11] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: i already had fusion icon
[01:11] <enmasse> seriously?
[01:12] <Shujah> no its an engine]
[01:12] <unop> lenswipe, you need a space there between metacity and --replace
[01:12] <enmasse> GUYS NEED URGENT HELP!
[01:12] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: kk
[01:12] <enmasse> i got Tork
[01:12] <enmasse> now it says I need Tor
[01:12] <Commie_Jebus> how do you make KDE apps loke EXACTLY like gnome apps?
[01:12] <Shujah> not an enginbe you might call it a library for making guis
[01:12] <enmasse> so i clicked the download tor button
[01:12] <enmasse> i think it is downloaded but where IS IT LOCATED?
[01:12] <tennispolska> how do i connect to a network using ubuntu, i can with vista without problem???
[01:12] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: yeh thats my layering issues sorted..
[01:12] <ERGLupin> im trying to install 8.04.1 on a 2GB thumb drive and it says its too small and needs more than 2GB
[01:12] <Gnea> enmasse: what did i tell youa bout caps?
[01:12] <enmasse> sorry
[01:12] <ERGLupin> but the site says 1GB is fine
[01:12] <Stormx2> enmasse, put your question on one line.
[01:12] <burner> enmasse: /usr/bin/tor ?
[01:12] <enmasse> i just got linux today
[01:13] <Gnea> enmasse: and please, type everything out on ONE line, don't repeat over many lines.
[01:13] <logi4023> my pc load web pages real slow today.  ie. it hangs on: "loading "www.site.com" "
[01:13] <solexious> [Q] Is there a ubuntu command line program to see the status of a jetdirect printer?
[01:13] <ubunubi> lenswipe::  -1 issue for now :P
[01:13] <Shujah> yes line pushers are shot, survivers are shot again :P
[01:13] <swegner> logi4023: could be a problem with your internet
[01:13]  * burner notices none of the people scolding enmasse offer any help and just spammed the channel more :P
[01:13] <td123> enmasse: congrats on getting gnu/linux up and running!
[01:13] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: nope - all of them
[01:13] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: the left click has come back
[01:13] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: terminals opening now?
[01:13] <enmasse> thanks td123
[01:13] <swegner> logi4023: you could open a terminal and type: ping www.site.com
[01:13] <tennispolska> how do i connect to a network using ubuntu, i can with vista without problem??? Does anyone know how to connect to a network???
[01:13] <enmasse> how do i talk to people directly like you did td123?
[01:14] <Shujah> enmasse hwtas the problem you are facing now?
[01:14] <Stormx2> solexious: I'd imagine it'll be managed by CUPS, but I'm not sure what the command is.
[01:14] <enmasse> how do i talk to people directly
[01:14] <blue112> Hello, need some help to make my webcam works on skype and xawtv at the same time : Its says that the device is busy. Could you help me ?
[01:14] <Guest11449> Hi !!
[01:14] <Stormx2> Guest11449: Hello :)
[01:14] <solexious> stormx2: thank you
[01:14] <unop> enmasse, use the tab-completion feature .. type part of someone's name and press TAB
[01:14] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: yep :D tyvm
[01:14] <td123> enmasse: you just did, just include the persons name in the sentence :)
[01:14] <ubunubi> blue112: i doubt you'll get 2 programs to read your webcame at the same time
[01:14] <ozzloy> enmasse: it's probably on your desktop
[01:14] <enmasse> unop: like this?
[01:14] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: need me to walk through having compiz turned off automatically on boot?
[01:14] <unop> enmasse, yep
[01:14] <enmasse> ozzloy: like this?
[01:15] <enmasse> thanks!
[01:15] <Arodon> Do I have to do anything to a fresh apache install to have it accept outside connections (i.e. non localhost)? or is it just my NAT/firewall config giving me problems
[01:15] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: no its ok, i just turned it back on and everyhting is fine now
[01:15] <enmasse> idk but linux seems REALLY CONFUSING, i think im just gonna go back to windows xp
[01:15] <enmasse> SIKE!
[01:15] <blue112> ubunubi: Can't it do that ? The preview image is very small on skype, and I want to see it better...
[01:15] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: seems i just needed to restart compiz
[01:15] <enmasse> Linux so far seems AWESOME
[01:15] <Stormx2> enmasse, go ahead, stop clogging up the channel.
[01:15] <ubunubi> lenswipe: you'll need to do it often probably, lol. it's buggy as it gets
[01:15] <swegner> Arodon: if you can connect from computers within your LAN but not outside, then it's a matter of your router
[01:15] <ERGLupin> im trying to install 8.04.1 on a 2GB thumb drive and it says its too small and needs more than 2GB but on the site it says a 1GB is fine
[01:15] <ubunubi> lenswipe: but now you know how
[01:15] <enmasse> Stormx2: sorry
[01:15] <Stormx2> Arodon: Apache will accept connections from outside by default. You'll need to set up firewall rules and forward ports on your router, though
[01:16] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: yeh probly, thx for ur help anyway
[01:16] <ScaryLptp> so what kind of idiotic terminal command do I use to adjust mouse scrolling? cause apparently no one thought to put it with the rest of the mouse preferences.
[01:16] <Arodon> swegner, Stormx2: k thanks
[01:16] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: np that we killed them all at once :P
[01:16] <Shujah> ERGLupin, tried alternative cd?
[01:16] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: i recon the thought of a reinstall made me age about 60 years in 2 minutes
[01:16] <Stormx2> !firewall | Arodon, open port 80 using firestarter
[01:16] <ERGLupin> Shujah nope just the default one
[01:16] <ERGLupin> its want it mentions in the guide
[01:16] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: haha, it cant be that bad ;)
[01:16] <ERGLupin> actually...
[01:16] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: the reinstall is fine,
[01:16] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: keep regular backups, and rolling back a few days is never more than 20minutes to a full working system
[01:16] <unop> ERGLupin, 1GB wll only give suffice for a very very basic install -- without most desktop features, etc
[01:17] <coler41> can anyone tell me why when i go to hardware drivers I don't see anything.  The box is completely empty
[01:17] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: its just putting the cofiguration back
[01:17] <ERGLupin> unop i just want it to use Aircrack on my MacBook
[01:17] <td123> ScaryLptp: I will suggest google to cool you off
[01:17] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: purchase TrueImage Home 10
[01:17] <ERGLupin> and i have a 2GB
[01:17] <ERGLupin> but it says its too small
[01:17] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: whats one of those? and where can i get one cheaply?
[01:17] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: when i foobar'd my entire file system earlier, it took me 15 minutes including reboots, to get back to my system from last week :)
[01:17] <Shujah> hardware drivers only mentions non-free drivers
[01:17] <Stormx2> ERGLupin, there are linux distributions specifically designed for security testing, I'd imagine they include aircrack-ng
[01:17] <unop> ERGLupin, you'll need to use some other smaller distro then -- or another version of ubuntu - like the !minimal CD
[01:18] <swegner> coler41: the hardware drivers dialog will only show restricted drivers.  If you don't see any there, you probably don't need them
[01:18] <ERGLupin> !minimal CD
[01:18] <Infinito-> enmasse, linux is much better than windows, once you master it. The only advantage of windows are some very good softwares that are developed to run only on windows :/
[01:18] <ubunubi> lenswipe:: http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/products/trueimage/
[01:18] <unop> !minimal | ERGLupin,
[01:18] <ERGLupin> well that sounds like a pain
[01:18] <Shujah> the biggest advantage is win-games but the situations changing
[01:18] <ERGLupin> what is a good small linux distro
[01:18] <enmasse> Infinito-: i know and thats what bugging me because i do music production so a ton of my apps are gone but also is the problem of an unstable computer
[01:18] <ERGLupin> you would recommend for someone who really only has used UBUNTU
[01:18] <Stormx2> Infinito-: Don't say ubuntu is better or worse than windows. That's a value judgement, not a fact.
[01:18] <lenswipe> ubuntubi: ty
[01:18] <ERGLupin> and works well with MacBook OoTB
[01:18] <enmasse> guys i like gnome and all but how can i try kDE?
[01:18] <unop> ERGLupin, perhaps slax for your needs - DSL too
[01:18] <coler41> How can I access my hardware.  In other words I have 2 video cards.  I want to disable one
[01:19] <swegner> enmasse: try kubuntu  :)
[01:19] <ERGLupin> do you know off the top of your head if Slax works out of the box with at least sound mouse and wifi on MacBook?
[01:19] <nyko> Good night !!And sweet dreams !!
[01:19] <unop> enmasse, install it.  sudo aptitude install kde
[01:19] <Stormx2> enmasse, using kde is very easy. Use your favourite package manager to install 'kubuntu-desktop'
[01:19] <Arodon> enmasse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE
[01:19] <WalloO> coler41, if it's an integrated one (in the motherboard), you can disable it from the bios
[01:19] <anabolix> is there a movie maker software that comes with ubuntu?
[01:20] <Shujah> enmasse you can install kde separately or within ubuntu which willbe messy
[01:20] <ubunubi> anabolix: no, not by default. but i'm sure there's quite a few available for download
[01:20] <ERGLupin> Shujah i installed it from Synaptic
[01:20] <ERGLupin> and it was easy
[01:20] <anabolix> ubunubi: any recommended ones>?
[01:20] <unop> ERGLupin, not sure of a macbook -- definitely not on a PPC
[01:20] <enmasse> hmm thanks for the tips, but i still can't even get tor running :(
[01:20] <Shujah> since you have just switched - I'll suggest you unistall ubuntu and try kubuntu - that would be clean and less likely to cause problems
[01:20] <ERGLupin> unop its Intel
[01:20] <unop> ERGLupin, it ought to then
[01:21] <Stormx2> Shujah: Installing KDE within ubuntu is not messy by any definition of the word. Ubuntu's modular design ensures that it isn't messy.
[01:21] <ubunubi> anabolix: what kind of source video format are you working with//importing?
[01:21] <paul_5666> i just tried using ntfsundelete to attempt to recover my files but it didnt work =( no more options
[01:21] <ERGLupin> yea if I remember right Slax is known for device support
[01:21] <paul_5666> ?
[01:21] <ERGLupin> or was that Knoppix
[01:21] <enmasse> but can anyone help me get tor + privoxy running and configured with firefox?
[01:21] <Shujah> Stormx2, messy in the sense that too many applications are available for any given task - a somewhat refined user can handle it - but newcomers ought to refrain just my humble view]
[01:21] <Don_Miguel> prolly Knoppix
[01:21] <unop> ERGLupin, that would be knoppix
[01:21] <ERGLupin> ahh yea
[01:21] <ubunubi> paul_5666: if ntfsundelete didn't recover them, and you don't want to pay for data recovery -- you're probably not getting that data back
[01:21] <anabolix> im not sure, just had a random thought of making a movie by piecing together clips/pics with some music
[01:21] <ERGLupin> is there a decent installer with it yet?
[01:22] <paul_5666> ubunubi: ok then thanks for ur help mate
[01:22] <ERGLupin> last time I checked it was kind of round about
[01:22] <unop> ERGLupin, slax was designed as a security auditor's distro
[01:22] <anabolix> ubunubi: im not sure, just had a random thought of making a movie by piecing together clips/pics with some music
[01:22] <ubunubi> anabolix:: each movie maker type app will handle some video formats and not others. would help to pick a format so you can pick the app that handles that format the best//easiest
[01:22] <ERGLupin> i remember using small Slax distros
[01:22] <ERGLupin> from Mini CDs
[01:22] <ERGLupin> way back in the day
[01:22] <tennispolska> how do i connect to a network using ubuntu, i can with vista without problem???
[01:23] <Shujah> tennispolska, which network are you trying to connect to
[01:23] <tennispolska> my home network
[01:23] <Stormx2> tennispolska, LAN? Wifi? Modem?
[01:23] <tennispolska> wifi
[01:23] <logi4023> install smb.
[01:23] <Shujah> lin to lin or lin to win
[01:23] <glitsj16> paul_5666: check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery for other options
[01:23] <Stormx2> !wifi | tennispolska
[01:23] <tennispolska> shujah: what do you mean??
[01:23] <Devman> hmm, it doesn't seem to sense my other monitor
[01:24] <tennispolska> thanks
[01:24] <Devman> yet, its acting as a duclicator right now...
[01:24] <anabolix> ubunubi: your talking about the format of the files that im going to use? and they should help me decide on what movie maker to download?
[01:24] <ubunubi> anabolix:: yes
[01:24] <enmasse> Guys, I've found where tor is located but Tork says point me to your Tor CLIENT, which one is the TOR CLIENT?
[01:24] <Shujah> your wifi is not being recognized or are you trying to access different pcs on your nw and cant?
[01:24] <chrismo16> I am trying to add . to my path in bashrc but my system wont load if I do. I'm using export PATH=$PATH:. what am i doing wrong?
[01:24] <logi4023> My ubuntu pc has real slow ping to internet sites.... what could be causing this?
[01:24] <unop> enmasse, the one at /usr/bin/tor # if not that one, the one reported by this command.   which tor
[01:25] <ubunubi> anabolix:: you can try something like pitivi from the repo..it'll handle quite a few common formats b/c it interfaces with gstreamer...if that doesn't float your boat try openmovieeditor
[01:25] <Stormx2> logi4023, how are you connected to the internet?
[01:25] <logi4023> wired/ethernet
[01:25] <anabolix> ubunubi: thanks alot for the help :D :D
[01:25] <logi4023> it was working fine for 6 months till today.
[01:25] <ubunubi> logi:: is the ping that slow when you're in another OS on the same computer//conenction//ISP ?
[01:25] <enmasse> unop: i dont see a file/folder in the bin that says tor???
[01:25] <unop> chrismo16, it's not a good idea adding . to PATH
[01:26] <unop> enmasse, bin?
[01:26] <Stormx2> anabolix, other video editors to try: PiTiVi, Kino, Cinepaint
[01:26] <ubunubi> logi4023: is it a slow ping to every site or just some? and has it been all day? or just in the last bit?
[01:26] <enmasse> unop:  yes im in username/bin looking for a tor file or folder
[01:26] <unop> enmasse, why username/bin .. i said /usr/bin
[01:26] <td123> Stormx2: how about cinerrella?
[01:27] <chrismo16> unop, yeah i heard that but I am learning linux through vid tutorials and it makes following the lessons easier
[01:27] <enmasse> unop: thats what i meant by username
[01:27] <Stormx2> td123, I just copied and pasted off the ubuntu studio website :P
[01:27] <enmasse> unop:  is that what usr means?
[01:27] <logi4023> all day. all sites external to local network.
[01:27] <unop> enmasse, /usr does not translate to your username
[01:27] <ubunubi> logi4023: have you tried all the common stuff like rebooting already?
[01:27] <unop> enmasse, it is a directory on your system
[01:27] <Stormx2> logi4023: Could be issues at your ISP then, or maybe your router has thrown a wobbly.
[01:27] <enmasse> unop: thanks for clearing that up, anyways im in usr/bin
[01:27] <anabolix> thanks stormx2
[01:27] <Shujah> cinerrella is geared toward professionals try avidemux pretty handy and many extensive guides online
[01:27] <anabolix> btw the best way to remove installed programs is with purge?
[01:28] <unop> enmasse, what does this command return?   which tor
[01:28] <enmasse> unop:  let me type that in terminal
[01:28] <Stormx2> anabolix, only if you want to remove configuration too.
[01:28] <ubunubi> anabolix:: depends on why you're removing it and if you plan on reinstalling it and what your preferences/settings in tact
[01:28] <unop> anabolix, that's not the "best" way, it is one way -- not necessarily good
[01:28] <logi4023> other pcs on the same local network are loading sites ok.
[01:28] <enmasse> unop: im in terminal and typed which tor and got nothing
[01:28] <Stormx2> enmasse, have you actually installed tor?
[01:29] <unop> enmasse, then type this command out.   sudo apt-get install tor
[01:29] <ubunubi> logi4023: even the same router?
[01:29] <enmasse> Stormx2: according to tork i have
[01:29] <coler41> can anyone tell me how to get my visual effects to work.  When I first installed Ubuntu it worked.  Now it doesnt seem to work.  Is there anywhere I can check my hardware?
[01:29] <Shujah> i dont think enmasse installed tor - should tork install it as dependency ?
[01:29] <enmasse> unop: according to tork i have installed it
[01:29] <Stormx2> !tor | enmasse
[01:29] <Stormx2> Just follow the guide.
[01:29] <unop> enmasse, but according to which, you have not
[01:29] <Mr_Bad_News> is there a way to change the color of the command line when ubuntu boots up
[01:29] <Shujah> coler41, go to menu > system > preferences > appearence > visual effetcs
[01:29] <Mr_Bad_News> so its not white
[01:29] <logi4023> yes, same router.
[01:29] <Stormx2> unop, it could have installed it in a location outside of his PATH.
[01:29] <enmasse> Shujah: thats what i was thinking too but tork says i have installed it
[01:29] <enmasse> unop: tork says i have installed tor
[01:30] <Stormx2> which wouldn't pick it up, then.
[01:30] <enmasse> unop: in home/ali/.tork/tor
[01:30] <unop> Stormx2, it shouldn't really though it's a possibility
[01:30] <studebaker__> when i change resolv.conf it goes back to the default when i restart
[01:30] <chrismo16> unop is ubuntu trying to keep me from adding . to the PATH?
[01:30] <unop> enmasse, bahh
[01:30] <R0b0t1> Hmm
[01:30] <Stormx2> unop, I've never heard of "tork".
[01:30] <Stormx2> enmasse, what is tork?
[01:30] <enmasse> unop: but WHEN i go there i cant find anything!
[01:30] <smadow> hello, can someone please assist me with a specific question?
[01:30] <enmasse> GUYS HOW DO I GET RID OF TORK!?
[01:30] <unop> enmasse, then use that then /home/ali/.tork/tor
[01:30] <Shujah> tork is tor with gui for kde
[01:30] <Stormx2> smadow: Yes.
[01:30] <coler41> i tried that, but the screen turns white.  Anyway i can check for hardware conflicts?
[01:30] <ubunubi> logi4023: how much of a ping difference from the other machines are we talking? 20%? 200%? 500%?
[01:30] <enmasse> unop: i tried that then it says show me the cleint
[01:31] <enmasse> unop: but then i cant find a client file?!?
[01:31] <R0b0t1> I'm having problems with my Macintosh keyboard, I can't change the function keys to act like function keys. They adjust the volume and brightness, is there a way I can make them normal?
[01:31] <ubunubi> !patience | enmasse
[01:31] <Barracuda> Hi guys. I am trying to install package /pkcs11-helper and do a "sudo ./configure" in this package but I get this error  "error: OpenSSL enabled but cannot be found". Any one know how to fix this problem???
[01:31] <unop> chrismo16, it probably is, adding . to PATH is quite insecure, you could have an executable file named ls in your current directory that deletes as much as it can, the next time you go to list files in that directory, you've just committed suicide
[01:32] <enmasse> sorry ubottu, excuse my ignorance im sorry
[01:32] <unop> chrismo16, i suggest not doing this
[01:32] <Shujah> TorK is a powerful anonymity manager for the KDE Desktop on Linux and Unix systems. It first helps you to  install, configure and use Tor. It then reduces, the task of anonymizing most applications to a single-click
[01:32] <ubunubi> R0b0t1: System>Preferences>Keyboard>Layouts>Keyboard Model> then select your Apple Laptop model from the drop down menu
[01:32] <smadow> hey all, so I have installed ubuntu within windows (maybe through wubi, if I recall correctly)
[01:32] <chrismo16> unop ok thanks
[01:32] <enmasse> okay shujah ill take your advice and do that first, if you can tell me how to get rid of TORK
[01:32] <R0b0t1> Its an iMac, and it has no specific model to select that I can see.
[01:32] <smadow> what I would like to do now is to setup my dell as a dual boot
[01:32] <Stormx2> Barracuda: Are you sure pkcs11-helper isn't in the repositories?
[01:32] <Shujah> enmasse, open synaptic manager and search for tor, see if its installed or not - TOR not TORK
[01:33] <glitsj16> Barracuda: probably you have only the OpenSSL binary ionstalled, you will need the dev files of that package to build (and ./configure doesn't need sudo on a side-note, only sudo make install)
[01:33] <R0b0t1> Its a chrome/aluminum deal
[01:33] <mark1> anyone know, whats the lightest window manager available in Ubuntu?
[01:33] <smadow> and, in this dual boot, I would like to have all my data, etc from windows saved, and all my data from this ubuntu
[01:33] <ubunubi> R0b0t1: try the generic "Macintosh" profile and see
[01:33] <unop> enmasse, if you install tor the right way, it should install it in /usr/bin/tor or /usr/sbin/tor -- please just do this.   sudo apt-get install tor
[01:33] <smadow> ideas of how to go about this?
[01:33] <unop> enmasse, when that is finished type which tor and you should get the location for it
[01:33] <Barracuda> Stormx2: no I cant't find it in the repositories
[01:33] <enmasse> unop: will do
[01:33] <coler41> is there a program equvelint to device mananger
[01:33] <unop> enmasse, to remove tor.  sudo aptitude remove tor
[01:34] <enmasse> Shujah: where is the package manager located, currently im using add/remove
[01:34] <enmasse> unop: where can i learn these terminal commands because as of right now these seem more efficient
[01:34] <unop> Shujah, you can access the package manager in different ways, apt-get is one way
[01:34] <Shujah> enmasse,  menu > system > administration > synaptic package manager
[01:34] <td123> enmasse: go to system->adminstration->synaptic package manager
[01:34] <Stormx2> smadow, dual booting is pretty easy. install windows first, then install windows. You'll get the option of which OS to start when you first turn on your computer
[01:34] <Stormx2> Barnabas, try installing libssl-dev
[01:34] <Shujah> yes apt-get is the same thing
[01:34] <Stormx2> Sorry, Barracuda, try installing libssl-dev
[01:35] <smadow> stormx, you said install windows, then install windows, what do you mean?
[01:35] <Mr_Bad_News> does anyone know how to change the color of your tty* terminals font?
[01:35] <td123> smadow: install windows, then ubuntu
[01:35] <unop> enmasse, http://www.debian.org/doc/FAQ/ch-pkgtools.en.html
[01:35] <ubunubi> coler41: sudo lshw  ...will give you 99% of the hardware info you need
[01:35] <Stormx2> smadow, sorry, tired. Install windows, then install ubuntu.
[01:35] <Barracuda> I will try
[01:35] <Stormx2> !wubi | smadow, you might also want to look into wubi, it'll be a lot easier.
[01:35] <smadow> okay, and will ubuntu keep my ubuntu partition intact?, stormx2
[01:35] <enmasse> unop: thanks
[01:36] <enmasse> when using synaptic to remove programs how would i go about removing something like Tork?
[01:36] <smadow> stormx2, I am currently using wubi, I am looking to trun this into dual boot
[01:36] <logi4023> pings from other local pcs are 10x faster than those on ubuntu pc.
[01:36] <unop> enmasse, search for tork, right click, mark for removal
[01:36] <Barracuda> Stormx2: libssl-dev is actually already installed
[01:36] <smadow> I want to keep my wubi ubuntu and use it as dual boot
[01:36] <Stormx2> smadow, hold on, I'm a little confused as to your current situation. The machine we're talking about, what operating systems does it have currently?
[01:36] <enmasse> thanks
[01:36] <Shujah> enmasse, right click (e.g. tor) you get the options reinstall, install, complete removal etc
[01:36] <R0b0t1> Is there an option so that I can use my iMac's keyboard's function keys as normal function keys, instead of them adjusting the volume and other things? I am unable to use program shortcuts that include the F1-12 keys.
[01:36] <smadow> Stormx2, it has windows with a wubi ubuntu installed on it
[01:37] <Mr_Bad_News> my wireless card keeps shutting off at random times
[01:37] <enmasse> thanks
[01:37] <unop> enmasse, or use that aptitude command to the same effect
[01:37] <Mr_Bad_News> does anyone know how i fix it?
[01:37] <Shujah> R0b0t1, pref > key board shortcuts
[01:37] <enmasse> im gonna try the apt command also on some programs i dont use like k3b
[01:37] <smadow> stormx2, what I want to do is convert the wubi into its own partition, I find that apps often crash and thene can't reopen
[01:37] <Mr_Bad_News> i'll be doing something and all the sudden i dont get any signal even though nm-applet says im connected
[01:37] <Stormx2> smadow, I need to go get some sleep. Ask your question again, I'm sure someone can help out. If not, try posting a topic on ubuntuforums.org
[01:37] <smadow> I assume that is a wubi issue, over being ubuntu
[01:37] <ubunubi> R0b0t1: sure. download "keytouch" from synaptic repos...you can individually program any key to do just about anything, multimedia related or not
[01:38] <smadow> okay, thanks stormx2
[01:38] <Stormx2> smadow, Yeah, I'd imagine it would be.
[01:38] <ubunubi> !keytouch | R0b0t1
[01:38] <enmasse> i have an ati 9600xt with 128 mb is this suitable for visual effects such as beryl/compiz?
[01:38] <Shujah> enmasse, install the compiz-script and run it
[01:38] <unop> enmasse, yes
[01:38] <Stormx2> Mr_Bad_News: And you can't access the internet during the period it reports no signal?
[01:38] <R0b0t1> ubunubi: You don't get it, I want to disable the multimedia functions so they act like normal function keys...
[01:38] <powertool08> enmasse: should be, I have same card 256mb and it works fine, also beryl is outdated, use compiz-fusion
[01:39] <enmasse> Shujah: what is this compiz script?
[01:39] <ubunubi> R0b0t1: i DO get it. that's why i said use keytouch to reprogram ANY key to be ANY key
[01:39] <Mr_Bad_News> yea Stormx2
[01:39] <ubunubi> R0b0t1: reading comprehension FTW
[01:39] <Shujah> R0b0t1, dude you'll map the multimedia keys to another function
[01:39] <enmasse> powertools08 what is this fusion?
[01:39] <unop> R0b0t1, i think you want xmodmap then
[01:39] <Mr_Bad_News> it goes dead and i have to restart
[01:39] <smadow> okay, hey all, could someone else please help me with this - current setup: windows installed taking up all of HDD and running ubuntu on wubi.  Goal: partitions with ubuntu and windows, and for the windows partition, not lose any data from how it currently is, and for the ubuntu, copying the data from wubi...ideas?
[01:39] <Mr_Bad_News> i tried /etc/init.d/networking restart
[01:39] <Mr_Bad_News> but nothing happens
[01:39] <mumboman> hey- i am very new to ubuntu.  i have tried installing all sorts of codecs to make dvd's run (i can use data cd's and music cd's) but keep gettig an error 'cannot open dvd:///dev/scd0' whenever i try to play a dvd
[01:39] <tony_v> Quick question: is there one package that anyone knows of for wardriving (airodump, aireplay, packetforge) or do I have to install each tool one by one?
[01:39] <Mr_Bad_News> and while im here does anybody know or know where i can find out how to get rid of a bios password?
[01:39] <tony_v> yeah
[01:40] <Mr_Bad_News> my brother typed one in and now i cant boot up my desktop
[01:40] <Stormx2> !dvd | mumboman
[01:40] <powertool08> enmasse, in the beginning there was compiz, then beryl forked and became its own thing, then compiz and beryl merged to become compiz-fusion, but many people still call it compiz
[01:40] <Mr_Bad_News> its a dell optiplex 8100
[01:40] <Stormx2> o.o
[01:40] <Stormx2> !dvd | mumboman
[01:40] <tony_v> if you have physical access
[01:40] <unop> !test
[01:40] <Stormx2> ubottu died.
[01:40] <enmasse> guys let me ask a n00b question i dont need an anti virus software with ubuntu right, i mean there are no porno spawning trojans on linux?
[01:40] <tony_v> open it up and pull the jumper
[01:40] <Mr_Bad_News> i dont know about a single package tony_v
[01:40] <Shujah> enmasse, compiz check script will check your system to see if your system can handle comiz effects
[01:40] <Mr_Bad_News> but im sure theres one around
[01:40] <unop> enmasse, not yet atleast
[01:40] <enmasse> yay :D
[01:41] <macrobad> Hey, guys! Does anybody happen to know what LOWER_UP network interface state means precisely? You can observe it with 'ip link show' command for example.
[01:41] <Stormx2> !dvd | mumboman
[01:41] <Stormx2> There we go.
[01:41] <Mr_Bad_News> id reccomend having at least 1gig of ram to run compiz enmasse
[01:41] <tony_v> did you go to dell or google it?
[01:41] <powertool08> enmasse: its not a bad idea to have one such as clamav to catch any so you don't pass them along to windows users
[01:41] <smadow> anybody have any ideas about that previous question?
[01:41] <tony_v> compiz takes up a alot
[01:41] <smadow> I would be very appreciative :-D
[01:41] <Mr_Bad_News> me tony_v ?
[01:41] <unop> enmasse, that doesn't mean you can let your guard down and let anything run on your PC -- always run stuff from reliable or trustworthy sources, if not, run it safely and after verification
[01:41] <Mr_Bad_News> i dont know the bios
[01:41] <enmasse> actually i'd love to pass them on to windows users unknowling ofcourse
[01:41] <enmasse> will do
[01:42] <Guest39365> is there any updates on gamepads not functiong properly? i have the xbox
[01:42] <Mr_Bad_News> when i start the computer it asks for a password
[01:42] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: psh, I had compiz going earlier in kde and my entire computer was using ~250 MB
[01:42] <Mr_Bad_News> could you run more than one app powertool08 ?
[01:42] <tony_v> smadow,
[01:42] <Mr_Bad_News> i had it on 528 and i could only run one app at a time
[01:42] <R0b0t1> Ok, would saying my multimedia keys also have the labels F1 to F12 on them change anything? For example, when in OSX, I have the option to "Disable function keys as multimedia buttons". I wish to do something like that....
[01:42] <smadow> yes tony_v?
[01:42] <X3> evening
[01:42] <Guest39365> i have the xbox 360 controller and everything seemed to work just fine
[01:42] <enmasse> guys which compiz do i need, i see compiz core, compiz fusion bcop, i see compiz dev?!
[01:42] <achilles> I'm not sure what causes it too do this, but on websites that use PHP, and I'm trying to load a page, sometimes it will bring up the download page like I am trying to download the file. Does anyone know what causes this or better yet how to fix this?
[01:42] <tony_v> you could install gparted
[01:43] <Shujah> enmasse, INSTALL COMPIZ CORE AND COMPIZ FUSION ICON
[01:43] <smadow> would gparted work with ntfs?
[01:43] <enmasse> i think i already have compiz
[01:43] <Shujah> sorry
[01:43] <tony_v> then repartition you hdd (sudo apt-get install gparted) the\
[01:43] <unop> achilles, can you show us one such URL?
[01:43] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: well I only had a couple of konsoles open, but i've run it in the past with two ff windows, several konsoles, superkaramba, and a couple other random programs
[01:43] <Shujah> accidently press caps
[01:43] <tony_v> yes
[01:43] <enmasse> because it says compiz plugins, and compiz core are green boxes
[01:43] <Mr_Bad_News> anyone know how to reset a bios?
[01:43] <enmasse> how do i configure them?
[01:43] <unop> achilles, usually it means the webserver isn't setup properly to handle php files
[01:43] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: of course then it was using more like 650 MB
[01:43] <smadow> would I be able to take my wubi ubuntu, and turn this into a real ubuntu, I have a lot of settings on it
[01:43] <tony_v> not the /
[01:43] <macrobad> Mr_Bad_News: take out the cmos battery for 10 secs.
[01:43] <Mr_Bad_News> nice powertool08 i had it on xfce and i could only run firefox or amarok i couldnt run them together
[01:43] <tony_v> yes
[01:43] <Mr_Bad_News> im not doing that macrobad
[01:44] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: or move the jumper for a few seconds
[01:44] <enmasse> Shujah: i just downloaded the compiz configurations settings manager is this what i need?
[01:44] <smadow> how would I do that, tony_v
[01:44] <Mr_Bad_News> i've done it before and it completely ruined my computer
[01:44] <Mr_Bad_News> it wouldnt even start after that
[01:44] <achilles> Uop: It just happened when trying to sign up for ubuntu forums
[01:44] <Shujah> enmasse, that too - go to menu > system > preferences > advanced desktop effects
[01:44] <R0b0t1> Ok, would saying my multimedia keys also have the labels F1 to F12 on them change anything? For example, when in OSX, I have the option to "Disable function keys as multimedia buttons". I wish to do something like that....
[01:44] <chrismo16> is there a way to get mplayer or anything other then totem to resize video when you resize the apps window?
[01:44] <enmasse> Shujah: im already in it :D
[01:45] <macrobad> Mr_Bad_News: Then you were extremely unlucky, and the problem was somewhere else, since I've done it many times without any unexpected consequences. Anyway, would be more careful the next time then.
[01:45] <Shujah> enmasse :D go to effects water effect tick, fire effect tick
[01:45] <enmasse> Shujah: how do i do the cube spin thing?! :D
[01:45] <blue112> Is anybody know how to make v4l:/ works ? Camorama works fine, xawtv works, but vlc doesn't :/
[01:45] <enmasse> lol there is an add helper with compiz :D
[01:45] <btfx> Anyone here got an Acer Aspire 3680 or similar?
[01:45] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: I have also moved the jumper, removed the battery many times and it simply reset bios, no other problems
[01:46] <X3> I have 2 ide hdd one I partinioned and have xp pro on there and on secont partition I have ubuntu one the secont hdd I fornmated it for linux and have also have a partition for the linux swap there..... is this kosher
[01:46] <enmasse> Shujah: how do i spin the cube?
[01:46] <unop> Mr_Bad_News, it probably is the only way you are going to be able to reset the BIOS password
[01:47] <Shujah> enmasse, dude lemme find a good online guide with all the relevent commands
[01:47] <powertool08> enmasse: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install compiz-core-settings-manager (or something similar) then you can easily configure all options of compiz
[01:47] <achilles> unop: most forums I try and sign up for just sits and tries to load then pulls up a download for the php file
[01:47] <enmasse> powertool08: already got it man :D how do i spin the cUBE?! :D
[01:47] <Shujah> enmasse, check this site > http://forlong.blogage.de/ <-cubes are defined
[01:47] <powertool08> enmasse, ctrl+alt+click and drag mouse
[01:48] <Atomhunter> I have a problem how do i fix it... I had tried to mount a volume (for my xp files) and it asked for a pass word, so i had it save my wrong username and password and now i can't mount it how do i fix this?
[01:48] <lidia_> pagiiiiiiiiii
[01:48] <powertool08> ctrl+alt+arrow left/right
[01:48] <unop> achilles, hmm, strange -- try using another browser to see if the same thing happens - galeon or opera for e.g.
[01:48] <Mr_Bad_News> for a dell powertool08 ?
[01:48] <enmasse> god after installing compiz and enabling the extra effects in appearance my comp just suffered a hit :(
[01:48] <Mr_Bad_News> everytime i've removed the battery it fried my mother board
[01:48] <Mr_Bad_News> i have one right now that i tried it too and it beeps now when i try to start it up
[01:48] <enmasse> yeah
[01:48] <Shujah> enmasse, dude tweak the effects you dont need everything
[01:49] <Mr_Bad_News> and its the same model so i dont want to do that
[01:49] <enmasse> Shujah:  lol i kinda enabled everything
[01:49] <Atomhunter> I have a problem how do i fix it... I had tried to mount a volume (for my xp files) and it asked for a pass word, so i had it save my wrong username and password and now i can't mount it how do i fix this? HELP!!!! plz
[01:49] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: moved the jumper on a dell? yes once or twice, mostly on my asus mobo tho
[01:49] <Mr_Bad_News> theres no way i can download something and burn it to a cd to reset it?
[01:49] <chrismo16> is there a video player besides totem that can resize the viseo when you resize the program window?
[01:49] <Mr_Bad_News> by jumper what do you mean powertool08 ?
[01:49] <jmallin> Has anyone here installed MagicJack on a linux box?
[01:49] <Leefmc> Question: Anyone have a comment on if i should not abandon apt-get in favor of aptitude?
[01:49] <ubunubi> chrismo16: VLC
[01:49] <macrobad> Mr_Bad_News: which model is it? I have never had Dell, just curious..
[01:49] <Atomhunter> why won't anyone help me!!
[01:49] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: I have seen live cd's which have bios password crackers on them, no clue how well they work
[01:49] <chrismo16> ubunubi for some reason my mov wont play in vlc
[01:50] <unop> Leefmc, apt-get does somethings that aptitude does not
[01:50] <ubunubi> Leefmc: i'd abandon both and just use synaptic..but unop will probably chime in and dissagree  :P
[01:50] <Shujah> enmasse, hey get these two apps two - compiz fusion icon (lets you change compiz to metacity with a single click) and emerald themes
[01:50] <Mr_Bad_News> i have two optiplex gx150's
[01:50] <Leefmc> ubunubi: That doesn't help me over ssh heh
[01:50] <Leefmc> unop: Oh yea? Does aptitude have things apt-get does not?
[01:50] <unop> Leefmc, yes
[01:50] <Leefmc> unop: Suck heh
[01:50] <ubunubi> leefmc: didn't see you specify that as restriction
[01:50] <Mr_Bad_News> while im here does anyone know how to change the command line color
[01:50] <enmasse> Shujah:  need some help, i was in the compiz config and enabled some effects, but in appearance i have none selected... so what do i do?
[01:50] <Mr_Bad_News> and when i start my computer it doesnt show it booting up
[01:51] <unop> ubunubi, i don't use synaptic, but use both apt-get and aptitude - neither is better overall, each does certain things better than the other
[01:51] <Mr_Bad_News> it says bios passed and goes blank until the gdm
[01:51] <Leefmc> ubunubi: I didnt, but then again i didnt mention anything about a 3rd option. ;P
[01:51] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: its a 3 pin jumper near your cmos battery, unplug power, move jumper one pin left or right depending on configuration, push power button to drain power completely, move jumper back to original pins, plug in and boot
[01:51] <Leefmc> ubunubi: So if you wanna get technical, hehe
[01:51] <X3> Evening guys again and sorry to bother.... I have 2 ide hdd on 1 partinion I have xp pro on there and on second partition I have ubuntu  (dual boot and works) on the secont hdd I formated it for linux and have also have a partition for the linux swap there..... is this kosher or should then linux swap be on the hdd ubuntu is on????
[01:51] <logi4023> if entering the ip address of a site loads much faster than entering the domain name, what could be the cause of this problem?
[01:51] <Atomhunter> Will some one plz help me!!!
[01:51] <Atomhunter> I have a problem how do i fix it... I had tried to mount a volume (for my xp files) and it asked for a pass word, so i had it save my wrong username and password and now i can't mount it how do i fix this?
[01:51] <Shujah> enmasse, press ctrl+win key + left mousebutton
[01:51] <ubunubi> unop: i saw your schpeel on your apt vs aptitude speech the other night, hence my comment
[01:51] <R0b0t1> Ok, would saying my multimedia keys also have the labels F1 to F12 on them change anything? For example, when in OSX, I have the option to "Disable function keys as multimedia buttons". I wish to do something like that....
[01:52] <enmasse> Shujah: where and i tried pressing that
[01:52] <Shujah> *press ctrl+win key only
[01:52] <macrobad> logi4023: big dns server's latency

[01:52] <unop> ubunubi, but you didn't see all of it, if you still want to know why aptitude resolves dependencies better than apt-get does, i can explain
[01:52] <ubunubi> R0b0t1: what you said makes no sense. repeating it won't get you any extra help
[01:52] <enmasse> Shujah: how do i even know if any effects are turned on?
[01:52] <isorbuttsor> Atomhunter, unmount it
[01:52] <Atomhunter> it won't unmount
[01:53] <ubunubi> unop: no thanks i'm pretty sure i caught the whole thing :P unless you took it private
[01:53] <macrobad> Shujah: I believe, in compizconfig-settings-manager
[01:53] <isorbuttsor> Atomhunter,  reboot
[01:53] <Atomhunter> i can't even mount it.......i i have rebooted
[01:53] <Shujah> enmasse, from terminal give command compiz-tray-icon
[01:53] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: hmm, I'm pretty sure all mobo's have that jumper, i'd check the mobo for manufacturer/model/rev info and try to find a manual online
[01:53] <Guest39365> oh and ubuntu recognizes the controller..i type lsusb and i see it and joystick calibrator see it too its just that when i press the buttons no input/output anyideas? do i have to install something for it to work?
[01:53] <Shujah> enmasse, then press Ctrl+Win key
[01:53] <Mr_Bad_News> the battery is the little flat lithium one yes powertool08 ?
[01:54] <unop> ubunubi, we didn't take it private, i just didn't feel like going through with it
[01:54] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: yes
[01:54] <cokencode> untu
[01:54] <chrismo16> ubunubi: any other prog u suggest? or do u know of a way to get my mov working?
[01:54] <Mr_Bad_News> theres no jumpers next to it
[01:54] <enmasse> Shujah: ali@EnMasse:~$ compiz-tray-icon
[01:54] <enmasse> The program 'compiz-tray-icon' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[01:54] <enmasse> sudo apt-get install gnome-compiz-manager
[01:54] <enmasse> bash: compiz-tray-icon: command not found
[01:54] <enmasse> ali@EnMasse:~$ sudo apt-get install gnome-compiz-manager
[01:54] <enmasse> [sudo] password for ali:
[01:54] <FloodBot3> enmasse: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:54] <enmasse> Reading package lists... Done
[01:54] <cokencode> hey guys, i want to watch youtube videos and i'm running xubuntu.
[01:54] <unop> enmasse, no, don't ever paste in here
[01:54] <ubunubi> chrismo16:: i'd try to fix your video issues instead of just move to another player, if i was you
[01:54] <b4m5usi> alowww
[01:54] <cokencode> is there an apt-get i can run
[01:54] <cokencode> to install flash ?
[01:54] <Shujah> install compiz-fusion-icon
[01:54] <enmasse> omg soooo sorry
[01:54] <cokencode> I really hate adobe
[01:54] <Leefmc> # is comment in bash, right?
[01:54] <enmasse> :(
[01:54] <b4m5usi> hay leh gbung g nich
[01:54] <unop> cokencode, sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree
[01:54] <Atomhunter> isorbuttsor: i had tried mounting it and had told it to remember the password and username, and it gave me an error and i couldn't change the password or username and now can't mount it
[01:55] <enmasse> Shujah: anyways says i need to install gnome compiz manager
[01:55] <powertool08> Leefmc: yes
[01:55] <cokencode> unop: that's not working for some odd reason
[01:55] <Ahadiel> enmasse, It's called "fusion-icon" btw
[01:55] <enmasse> okay
[01:55] <unop> cokencode, why not?
[01:55] <ubunubi> unop:: i dont mind learning. but personally i only use synaptic..._just_ so my install/unintsall history gets kept in 1 file. i do lots of rollbacks and need a paper trail of installs to sync my test VMs to
[01:55] <Shujah> dude install it and install compiz-fusion-icon and emerald manager from synaptic
[01:55] <neothecat> is there a way i can setup GDM so when one user logins in, it starts gnome, but when another logs in, it starts kde?
[01:55] <R0b0t1> Is there a way I can disable the multimedia functions of my Apple keyboard? I wish to use the function (F) keys for program shortcuts.
[01:55] <Guest39365> is anyone having problems with there joypad not working or is it just me?
[01:55] <Mr_Bad_News> powertool08, i dont know if its a boot password or a bios
[01:55] <cokencode> oh wait
[01:55] <Mr_Bad_News> is there a difference
[01:55] <cokencode> yes it is, sorry
[01:55] <unop> ubunubi, apt-get and aptitude use dpkg to actually install packages, a log file exists in /var/log/dpkg.log
[01:55] <cokencode> i made a typo the first time apparently
[01:56] <Mr_Bad_News> i dont get anything but a password prompt when i start up
[01:56] <ubunubi> R0b0t1: i bet if you installed that app and built a custom keyboard layout. it would work find
[01:56] <dr_Willis> neothecat,  gdm rembers the last saved 'selection' from the sessions menu. so each user can have their own default.
[01:56] <ubunubi> unop:: yes but synaptic keeps a history log sorted by date and session that's searchable (easily)
[01:56] <macrobad> Shujah: I cannot find compiz-fusion-icon there. However, it suggests me to install gnome-compiz-manager
[01:56] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: both are controlled by bios, you can set it to only prompt when you try to change bios settings, or at every boot
[01:56] <Shujah> ok install it
[01:56] <ubunubi> unop:: and create a download script based on that log, to sync my other machines to
[01:56] <enmasse> apparently i have compiz gnome installed but it wants to be gey...
[01:56] <dr_Willis> neothecat,  have user #2 select kde from the sessions, it will ask to save it as default..
[01:56] <ubunubi> unop: i'm sure it can be done with the others. but it's easiest (for me) that way
[01:56] <unop> ubuntulog, so does the dpkg.log -- maybe not as searchable, but if you are adept with grep or perl, it's no pain
[01:56] <cokencode> hmmm, it installed but it's still not playing
[01:56] <R0b0t1> But I shouldn't need to! Theres obviously something that decided they could be used as such, I wish to disable it.
[01:57] <cokencode> unop: installed, but flash vids not playing in firefox ... any suggestions ?
[01:57] <unop> ubunubi, apt-get --print-uris :) can assist creating download scripts
[01:57] <burner> use flash 10!
[01:57] <unop> cokencode, navigate to about:plugins to see if flash is loaded
[01:57] <macrobad> Shujah: Well, I'm not that curious after all! :)
[01:57] <neothecat> dr_Willis: ok, it looked like whatever session was used last is always used regardless of who logs in, but i will double check.  thanks!
[01:57] <shade1> how do I figure out what version of openssh is on my ubuntu server? It's ubuntu v. 8.04.1
[01:57] <Shujah> macrobad, lols
[01:58] <burner> shade1: ssh -version
[01:58] <dr_Willis> neothecat,  it shouldent be. it reads the .dmrc file I think, in each users home dir when they login. to decide on their default sessiion
[01:58] <shade1> burner: thanks
[01:58] <Atomhunter> HELP!!! I had tried to mount my XP volume and used the wrong user and password, and told it to save it and now i can't mount it!!!! HELP!!
[01:58] <ubunubi> shade1: open synaptic, search for openssh..and look at the installed version label
[01:58] <isorbuttsor> Atomhunter, if you typed wrong password that password would not get saved
[01:59] <macrobad> shade1: greetings!
[01:59] <Shujah> I think he forgot the password
[01:59] <burner> Atomhunter: xp volume meaning an ntfs or a network filesystem?
[01:59] <Atomhunter> well then i got a weird error then!.............ntfs
[01:59] <shade1> macrobad: hello!
[01:59] <burner> Atomhunter: you don't need a user/pass to mount ntfs
[01:59] <shade1> macrobad: you seem to hang around here a lot ;)
[01:59] <enmasse> Shujah: hey
[01:59] <burner> !ntfs | Atomhunter
[01:59] <mike1>  /list
[01:59] <R0b0t1> ubunubi: Fine, what was that programs name?
[01:59] <Shujah> ? yeah
[01:59] <zachb> My friend just upgraded firefox, and now it doesn't work: tips?
[01:59] <enmasse> Shujah: im in compiz config right now and looking at the settings of the effects
[02:00] <isorbuttsor> Atomhunter, did you restart the computer either shutdown or restar
[02:00] <dr_Willis> burner,  unless it was the root/sudo password it was wanting?  to mount the share.. - Im confused as to why it wanted a password for him also.
[02:00] <enmasse> Shujah: what does control super mean?
[02:00] <Shujah> go to effects - water effects tick it
[02:00] <ubunubi> R0b0t1: keytouch & keytouch editor
[02:00] <Atomhunter> isorbuttsor: yep
[02:00] <enmasse> i did that
[02:00] <macrobad> shade1: Well, actually I've come for the first time today, but noone seems to know the answer to my question, even google...
[02:00] <dr_Willis> enmasse,  super key = windows key.. so 'ctrl-windowskey'
[02:00] <enmasse> okay
[02:00] <shade1> macrobad: what is it?
[02:00] <macrobad> Does anybody happen to know what LOWER_UP network interface state means precisely? You can observe it with 'ip link show' command for example.
[02:01] <shade1> macrobad: why do you ask?
[02:01] <enmasse> dr_Willis: to enable compiz effects like water effect do i have to go to system appearance and enable anything from there? or can i just do it all form compizconfig?
[02:01] <Shujah> enmasse, then press ctrl+win key just to check if compiz is running
[02:01] <isorbuttsor> Atomhunter,  then you should be able to mount it how are you trying to mount it command line or through nautilus
[02:01] <Atomhunter> through the file viewer.....
[02:01] <tony_v> mods, heads up. Smadow is going to try to do a dual boot (I told him to use gparted and a fresh ubuntu install to preserve his wubi install) If he's back he didn't understand how to set which partition to be root. Just a heads up so y'all know what's up
[02:01] <enmasse> Shujah: i press it but nothing is happening...
[02:01] <ubunubi> R0b0t1: you could also try this: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-106209.html but it seems more complicated to me
[02:01] <Shujah> enmasse, so compiz is not running
[02:01] <enmasse> Shujah: how do i get it running?
[02:02] <dr_Willis> enmasse,  the main thing  i do with compiz.. is turn it off.
[02:02] <Curtis> does anyone know how to update your version of firefox?
[02:02] <isorbuttsor> Atomhunter,  try mounting it in terminal
[02:02] <Shujah> install gnome-compiz-manager :P
[02:02] <R0b0t1> ubunubi: Well, I'm thinking, something that is already on my computer decided that they could be used as such. Something must be able to disable it.
[02:02] <dr_Willis> enmasse,  you enable the effect. then use the hotkey to activate those effects
[02:02] <enmasse> hmm but my compiz is not running willis
[02:02] <macrobad> shade1: I was wondering, 'coz I had to troubleshoot my wireless today, and got confused with this flag arbitratly appearing and disappearing. Well, if nobody knows, I'd ask tomorrow.
[02:02] <Atomhunter> i got it to work with the link buner gave me
[02:03] <enmasse> well
[02:03] <enmasse> its running now
[02:03] <ubunubi> R0b0t1: you can try to tell keyboard layout to use the Generic 102 profile and see if that converts them. if not you'll still have to manually map them through one of the two solutions I've already provided
[02:03] <burner> awesome
[02:03] <Atomhunter> burner:thanks
[02:03] <burner> np
[02:03] <Atomhunter> isorbuttsor: thanks
[02:03] <shade1> macrobad: when we were trying to troubleshoot mine the other day, I read something about it being useful to tell whether or not the cable was plugged in, but I'm not really sure what that means
[02:03] <Shujah> yeah so the effects are working?
[02:04] <enmasse> yeah
[02:04] <enmasse> lol rain effect IS AWESOME :D!
[02:04] <Shujah> now install emerald theme manager for additional eyecandy
[02:04] <Curtis> does anyone have the rtl8187b wireless card?
[02:04] <enmasse> Shujah: whats that?
[02:04] <ubunubi> !wireless | curtis
[02:04] <unop> macrobad, my inital thought was it had to do with a lower layer property, LOWER_UP meaning the physical layer was up, LOWER_DOWN meaning physical layer down, cable unplugged, signal dropped, etc -- this url does indicate the same..  http://busybox.net/lists/busybox/2008-June/031749.html
[02:04] <ubunubi> !realtek > curtis
[02:05] <mike1>  I need a simple system for people to trade documents and post news  any sugesstions ,    Sorry for being off topic
[02:05] <aesfubar> hey new to ubuntu, i've got mozilla 3 ubuntu 8, i can't get the flash going...i have shockwave flash...it flashes black then goes blank on youtube...i disable it and it goes i don't have flash obviously but i've tried installed the flash adobe .rpm converting it into .deb and installing it but it doesn't pop up in the addons.. what am i doing wrong?
[02:05] <unop> macrobad, what you were seeing yesterday was probably because of an intermittent wireless signal
[02:05] <dr_Willis> aesfubar,  using a rpm converted to deb.. was a wrong thing to do...
[02:05] <ubunubi> aesfubar: what you're doing wrong is everything. trying to install flash from a converted RPM is a great/fast way to trash your system from every playing flash
[02:06] <ubunubi> ever*
[02:06] <aesfubar> how do i fix it?
[02:06] <cokencode> what do i need to apt-get install to watch wmv videos ?
[02:06] <ubunubi> cokencode: w32codes from the mediabuntu repo
[02:06] <dr_Willis> Flash is in the 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' package - and in the package manager under.. somthing with 'flash' in the name. :)
[02:06] <dr_Willis> !find flash
[02:06] <ubunubi> cokencode: w32codecs *
[02:06] <achilles> unop: opera works fine, just firefox and galeon didn't work they both try and dl php
[02:06] <vbcoderx> sup guys
[02:07] <enmasse> guys if i enable the fire effect of compiz and the water effect, and then set fire to stuff and then splash it with water, will the fires be extinguised?
[02:07] <powertool08> lol
[02:07] <enmasse> what
[02:07] <vbcoderx> lol
[02:07] <Leefmc> Question: Is there a way to search the terminal? Im trying to search a manual for a specific argument, but i can't find it heh
[02:07] <enmasse> that was a serious question
[02:07] <td123> enmasse: uhhh, whatever
[02:07] <Leefmc> Search as in, CtrlF like
[02:07] <enmasse> and im trying to solve it right now :)
[02:07] <dr_Willis> enmasse,  the pc will just explode.
[02:07] <isorbuttsor> enmasse, it will just burn your computer to ashes
[02:08] <vbcoderx> lol just do sudo gedit pathhere
[02:08] <vbcoderx> then u can ctrl f
[02:08] <vbcoderx> if its a manual
[02:08] <vbcoderx> then u can open it with gedi
[02:08] <vbcoderx> t
[02:08] <unop> Leefmc, what manual, you mean man page?
[02:08] <enmasse> i thought it would explode from the steam >.<
[02:08] <macrobad> unop: hmm... Actually, UP reports administrative state (i.e. enforced by your commands), and NO-CARRIER report operational state (e.g. you brought the interface up, but the signal was lost, or you couldn't get authenticated). It seems, that LOWER_UP doubles this functionality, doesn't it?
[02:08] <Fungusman> how do I make my user root
[02:08] <Leefmc> unop: Yea
[02:08] <Fungusman> This is my laptop
[02:08] <dr_Willis> !sudo | Fungusman
[02:08] <Fungusman> And I can;t use apache cause Im not a ROOT user
[02:08] <vbcoderx> you can run as root using sudo
[02:08] <Leefmc> unop: But thats sort of irrelevant, i just need a way to search the terminal
[02:08] <unop> Leefmc, press / then the text you want to search for
[02:09] <Fungusman> I want to be root all the time
[02:09] <ubunubi> Fungusman: that's a bad idea :P
[02:09] <monostone> Im trying to convert a bin/cue raw image into an iso via bchunk, but although I set MODE2/2352 i still get an 'incorrect fs' error when trying to mount -t iso9660. Any ideas on how to proceed?
[02:09] <spork969> SNuxoll: K&R?
[02:09] <IndyGunFreak> Fungusman: you need to learn linux better, thats a horrible idea
[02:09] <vbcoderx> sudo su will do it for your entire terminal session
[02:09] <macrobad> Actually, my original idea was about power saving mode, but I have LOWER_UP on my loopback interface... :)
[02:09] <vbcoderx> or you can set the root password, and login with it
[02:09] <Leefmc> unop: Eh? -bash: /deb: No such file or directory
[02:09] <Fungusman> if I have a browser window already open, is there a hot key or something that I can sudo it
[02:09] <vbcoderx> it comes disabled usually
[02:09] <Fungusman> Why is it a bad idea?
[02:09] <Fungusman> Security ?
[02:09] <Pseudo> Hello all, i'm new to Ubuntu
[02:09] <unop> Leefmc, you need a better terminal then :)
[02:10] <dr_Willis> Fungusman,  no, and there should be no need to run the browser as root.
[02:10] <Leefmc> unop: haha
[02:10] <Leefmc> unop: Im using the default ubuntu one, does it suck that bad?
[02:10] <Leefmc> unop: Why are they using a faulty terminal heh..
[02:10] <Fungusman> so I should use bash to copy my files into this rooted folder ?
[02:10] <macrobad> At this point I feel tempted to "use the source", although it's not what I should be doing at this time..
[02:10] <unop> macrobad, as i said earlier, i am not really sure what it means, my first impression was that - but i am far from sure
[02:10] <ubunubi> Fungusman: preferably, yes
[02:10] <dr_Willis> Fungusman,  thats very good practice.. to use sudo to do system type tasks.
[02:11] <enmasse> guys help
[02:11] <enmasse> on xchat i dont see
[02:11] <aesfubar> dr_willis pm
[02:11] <Pseudo> Does anyone have any tips for me, being new and whatnot
[02:11] <enmasse> an x minimize or maximize!
[02:11] <Fungusman> mv /home/file new/place
[02:11] <Fungusman> right ?
[02:11] <powertool08> yes
[02:11] <Fungusman> cool
[02:11] <Fungusman> thanks
[02:11] <Leefmc> unop: What terminal do you suggest for ubuntu?
[02:11] <powertool08> Fungusman: /new/place if that wasn't a typo
[02:11] <shader42> macrobad: unop, I think the same thing. It makes sense, and the websites I've seen (it was probably the same one) corroborate that.
[02:11] <ubunubi> Pseudo: can you be more specific?
[02:11] <dr_Willis> Fungusman,  with a sudo at the start.. if its to a system type place.
[02:11] <wexell32> ok i don't know if this is a good idea i just whant make other people know about this software that i found by surfing.... is a photo manager .deb it's called bluemarine just google it... sorry if i shouden't do stuff like that... let me know...
[02:12] <enmasse> omg i cant
[02:12] <enmasse> see the title bar on my apps!
[02:12] <shader42> macrobad: does that help you solve your problems?
[02:12] <ScaryLptp> what in the ever loving hell do I have to do to make ubuntu STOP forgetting my godamn DNS servers? I go in and I set them work a location called Work, everything works for a while and then suddenly I have no DNS servers again, like it keeps switching back to no location
[02:12] <Pseudo> ubunubi: Anything helpful
[02:12] <powertool08> enmasse: that means your window decorator crashed
[02:12] <ubunubi> pseudo:: if you can be more specific about a specific topic, i'm sure there's tons of advice here.
[02:12] <macrobad> shader42: I think, I've found the clue: --> http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/networking/operstates.txt
[02:12] <unop> Leefmc, rxvt-unicode
[02:12] <Leefmc> unop: Thats in the ubuntu repo i assume?
[02:12] <powertool08> enmasse: metacity --replace will bring it back
[02:12] <Pseudo> Argh, gotta go
[02:12] <unop> Leefmc, it has capabilities to search the terminals buffer
[02:13] <unop> Leefmc, ohh yes
[02:13] <Atomhunter> does anyone know if WINE works with rosetta stone?
[02:13] <enmasse> ahh
[02:13] <kcaj> What is some good music stuff for Ubuntu I can get with synaptics?
[02:13] <kcaj> I like stuff like Audition, FL Studio, VDJ, etc.
[02:13] <enmasse> powertool08: i just reenabled it from compizconfig :D
[02:14] <powertool08> ScaryLptp: did you set them in resolv.conf?
[02:14] <kcaj> Wanna learn and play on some ish
[02:14] <monostone> Im trying to convert a bin/cue raw image into an iso via bchunk, but although I set MODE2/2352 i still get an 'incorrect fs' error when trying to mount -t iso9660. Any ideas on how to proceed?
[02:14] <dr_Willis> !appdb | Atomhunter
[02:14] <cokencode> jeeze
[02:14] <cokencode> it was a chore to get flash working in linux
[02:14] <monostone> also, how to mount a vcd image?
[02:14] <cokencode> we really need to make that more user friendly
[02:14] <unop> macrobad, this could help - http://lxr.linux.no/linux/Documentation/networking/operstates.txt#L142
[02:14] <isorbuttsor> kcaj, audacity
[02:14] <dr_Willis> cokencode,  i just install 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' and it worked for me on my last 3 machines.
[02:14] <kcaj> Is audacity to PLAY music, or MAKE music?
[02:15] <isorbuttsor> kcaj, play and make
[02:15] <powertool08> kcaj: it will do either
[02:15] <adude> i need help setting up virtualbox
[02:15] <isorbuttsor> kc it be like audition
[02:15] <powertool08> kcaj: I like audacious, its like winamp/xmms
[02:15] <macrobad> unop: we're looking on the same paper! :)
[02:15] <kcaj> Oh, that sounds pretty good, is there anything with an FL Studio-like interface?
[02:15] <Leefmc> Question: Anyone familiar with ffmpeg and the -rc_eq argument? (Its man is "set rate control equation")
[02:15] <enmasse> kcaj i do music production too but i dont think there is anything like that on linux except for ardour
[02:16] <isorbuttsor> kc dunno what fl studio is
[02:16] <kcaj> Ah, is ardour available through synaptics?
[02:16] <unop> macrobad, http://lxr.linux.no/linux/include/linux/if.h#L50 says this.  #define IFF_LOWER_UP    0x10000         /* driver signals L1 up         */
[02:16] <unop>   :)
[02:16] <enmasse> kc i think your best bet is to just dual boot because ardour is like sonar 6/7
[02:16] <unop> macrobad, which is what i had assumed, physical layer connectivity
[02:16] <enmasse> and sonar 6/7 is NOTHING like fl studio
[02:16] <kcaj> Hmm, I see.
[02:16] <monostone> as well, which is the command that prints the file type?
[02:16] <enmasse> im partial to reason 4 :D
[02:16] <Storrgi1> is anyone running multiple monitors on an nvidia card? i have some questions regarding your setup
[02:16] <macrobad> unop: indeed, true that!
[02:16] <lidia_> what
[02:16] <unop> monostone, file
[02:17] <kcaj> Yeah cuz FL Studio is just... really I mean, that is what I grew up with, I have so many VSTi and DXi, etc. and DVDs and CDs full of sounmds
[02:17] <isorbuttsor> kcaj, rosegarden does audio and midi, muse does audio and midi
[02:17] <enmasse> kcaj: what kind of music you produce?
[02:17] <monostone> unop: thanks
[02:17] <kcaj> it is the most familiar environment to me
[02:17] <enmasse> yeah it was for me
[02:17] <shader42> macrobad: so, now you're having network troubles too, eh?
[02:17] <kcaj> (thus, takes ideas from my head, to the speakers the best)
[02:17] <enmasse> until i learned its sound engine was crap
[02:17] <enmasse> kcaj: what kind of genres are you doing?
[02:17] <kcaj> I mostly make rap and hip-hop, although I've been known to tear up some turntables ;) can do trance, IDM, dance, etc. etc. as well
[02:17] <enmasse> kcaj: i do dub/downtempo/progressive metal/rock
[02:18] <enmasse> :D
[02:18] <unop> macrobad, good site this, very nice cross referencing, make it a necessary bookmark - http://lxr.linux.no/
[02:18] <kcaj> True, haha
[02:18] <kcaj> What do you use these days, on Linux?
[02:18] <kcaj> I'm always open to learn new things
[02:18] <enmasse> just for security/switch from windows
[02:18] <enmasse> and plus i switched over TO REAL INSTRUMENTS
[02:18] <enmasse> kcaj: from a midi keyboard to a real drumset + guitar
[02:18] <kcaj> I mean, I've been using Linux for longer than I've been using Linux with GUI
[02:18] <kcaj> using it as a desktop is very new to me
[02:18] <enmasse> oh lol
[02:19] <enmasse> im using it only as a desktop :D
[02:19] <unop> !ot
[02:19] <kcaj> Meh, I don't care so much for midi keyboards,I have a nice Roland but I rarely use it any more
[02:19] <isorbuttsor> kcakc hydrogen is a crossplatform drum machine
[02:19] <enmasse> yeah thats why i kind of stopped music production because rap/hip hop is SOOOO comercialized and boring
[02:19] <Mecha25> I need some generic not-how-to, but-whether-to partitioning advice
[02:19] <enmasse> unless you're talking about underground or classic
[02:19] <kcaj> See, that is the same reason I do the rap/hip-hop, to fight that stereo type and help propel it
[02:20] <Mecha25> specifically, is there any reason I need to keep an NTFS partition, other than to run Windows?
[02:20] <enmasse> but thats why i switched over to rock/metal/progressive
[02:20] <unop> guys take the music chat stuff to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[02:20] <enmasse> sorry lol
[02:20] <kcaj> See, yeah I mix it a lot with  classical stuff, 60s, 70s, and 80s rock music, all kinds of things, I'm a polygamist when it comes to my marriage to music.
[02:20] <macrobad> shader42: Well, I've fixed them! Although, it was not that easy to understand why I needed to restart networking and NetworkManager when switching between manual mode and roaming mode. Anyway, now I can go to bed without any troubles in my mind! ^^
[02:20] <powertool08> Mecha25: no
[02:20] <kcaj> (taking out of chan)
[02:20] <nazgul> So earlier I installed the icon theme from here (http://djany.deviantart.com/art/Gnome-Buuf-Deuce-1-0-r8-73339997) earlier tonight and then I switched back to the human theme.  Now if I try to install the Buuf one again, it says the install failed even though it tries copying it again like it did when I first successfully installed it.  Any ideas?
[02:20] <shader42> macrobad: good night :)
[02:20] <shader42> macrobad: it must be getting pretty late there
[02:20] <Mr_Bad_News> has anyone ever removed the battery to reset the bios for a dell optiplex?
[02:20] <macrobad> unop: Yeah, thanks for assistance
[02:21] <unop> macrobad, yw mate
[02:21] <macrobad> shader42: 4:20... see you guys!
[02:21] <shader42> macrobad: lol
[02:21] <Mecha25> alright, in that case, anybody got windows virtualization advice?
[02:21] <shader42> macrobad: bye!
[02:21] <burner> Mr_Bad_News: what is unpluggin the battery supposed to do for you besides reset your clock?
[02:21] <Mecha25> not wine, I've already got that
[02:22] <Atomhunter> Mr_Bad_News: ive had to do that with other computers to clear out and prep for a new install.....i do it before i reinstall anynew OS on a new machine.... had to do it a few times on my Cyperpower
[02:22] <powertool08> Mecha25: there is vmware, virtualbox, maybe others, haven't used them much myself to recommend one over the other
[02:22] <isorbuttsor> mec virtualbox
[02:22] <Drk_Guy> How can i make GEdit to save things on Windows EOF?
[02:22] <Mecha25> powertool08: thanks though, I'm running Ubuntu/Vista dual boot, with my files in the NTFS part so I can accss them from both systems
[02:23] <Atomhunter> Mecha25: ugh! hows that vista working for you?
[02:23] <Mecha25> it's getting annoying though, I keep having to resize the partitions when I get more ubuntu apps or more media files.  Vista is amazing, once you tweak it.  The default settings are a pile of bull !@#$ on a stick, once you fix that it's great.
[02:23] <Mr_Bad_News> i took it out Atomhunter and im still getting a password prompt
[02:23] <powertool08> Mecha25: you can also download stuff so windows can see into your linux partition
[02:23] <burner> Mecha25: lies
[02:24] <Mr_Bad_News> how long do i leave it out?
[02:24] <Mecha25> powertool: yeah, but it only works with ext2, I have ext3
[02:24] <Atomhunter> Mr_Bad_News: idk.......i've never got a password prompt on it
[02:24] <burner> Mr_Bad_News: taking out the battery doesn't fix it afaik
[02:24] <unop> Mecha25, this is a ubuntu support channel, not a value judgment expo.
[02:24] <Mr_Bad_News> afaik burner ?
[02:24] <unop> Mecha25, please take this to offtopic
[02:24] <Mecha25> unop: my apologies, I was looking for advice, I will
[02:24] <Mecha25> thanks
[02:24] <Mr_Bad_News> how do i get rid of the password prompt
[02:24] <isorbuttsor> Mecha25, could get an external drive both os's will read an external
[02:24] <Mr_Bad_News> my brother set it and he doesnt know what it is
[02:25] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: afaik = as far as i know
[02:25] <Mr_Bad_News> and i cant boot up or get to the bios settings
[02:25] <burner> Mr_Bad_News: you try contacting dell support?  their chat support is decent
[02:25] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: I forgot my bios password and reset it yesterday with the jumper method I mentioned earlier
[02:25] <Mr_Bad_News> there are no jumpers powertool08
[02:25] <unop> Mr_Bad_News, is this a laptop or a desktop?
[02:26] <Mr_Bad_News> desktop
[02:26] <Mr_Bad_News> optiplex gx150
[02:26] <Otaru> there are almost ALWAYs jumpers on the mb
[02:26] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: I meant that it should clear the password, since it cleared mine yesterday
[02:26] <unop> Mr_Bad_News, just as long as you remove just the CMOS battery, you will not lose any other data
[02:26] <Mr_Bad_News> what do they look like powertool08
[02:26] <Mr_Bad_News> i did unop
[02:26] <Mr_Bad_News> the prompt is still there
[02:26] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: the jumpers?
[02:27] <unop> Mr_Bad_News, you need to remove the batter for upto half an hour with the power chord unplugged
[02:27] <R0b0t1> Whoops
[02:27] <Otaru> last dell I pulled jumpers on were colored green
[02:27] <k20a> how do i update my kernal update manager says i am up to date when i know i am not..
[02:27] <Mr_Bad_News> yes powertool08
[02:27] <shader42> how do you forward X11 over ssh? I must have something misconfigured, because when I do ssh -X user@host, and then run a program requiring X11, it says "no display specified"
[02:27] <Mr_Bad_News> there is nothing next to the battery
[02:27] <Drk_Guy> How can i make GEdit save files with Windows EOL charachters?
[02:27] <macrobad> unop: I've almost gone, when noticed a nice link on the lxr.linux.no: http://darwish-07.blogspot.com/2008/02/howto-lxrng-on-ubuntu-710.html They guy explains how to install a local copy of their web site. ^^ Now, I'd finished
[02:27] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: its just 3 pins, usually within 3 inches of the battery, jumper itself covers 2, can be various colors, mine are blue but i've also seen grey and black
[02:27] <td123> k20a: how do you know your not up to date?
[02:28] <Mr_Bad_News> pic powertool08 ?
[02:28] <Mr_Bad_News> theres nothing near the battery
[02:28] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: no camera :(
[02:28] <k20a> td123 when my boot loader loads it shows an older kernal
[02:28] <unop> macrobad, yea, i know you can have the git repo offline , haven't needed it so far .. but nice to have nonetheless :)
[02:29] <shader42> macrobad: unop: you guy do kernel hacking?
[02:29] <unop> Mr_Bad_News, you would need to consult your motherboard's manual for location on these jumpers -- each motherboard varies in terms of layout and schematics
[02:29] <shader42> *guys*
[02:30] <Mr_Bad_News> i dont have one unop
[02:30] <macrobad> unop: I've made a couple of local copies so far, because occasionally I have to spend a month or two in a "village" without proper internet access.
[02:30] <td123> k20a: what do you mean it shows an older version, have you installed a newer version but it selects the older one or what
[02:30] <isorbuttsor> k20a, edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file
[02:30] <unop> shader42, not so much, every now and then i have to apply a patch or so - but that's about it, i don't code in C very well
[02:30] <Mr_Bad_News> oh wait i found it
[02:30] <Mr_Bad_News> theres just two pins
[02:30] <Mr_Bad_News> what do i do powertool08
[02:30] <td123> isorbuttsor: I think he wants to install a newer version of the kernel
[02:30] <Mr_Bad_News> it was hiding under a power cord near the fan
[02:30] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: 2 pins with a 2 pin jumper on it?
[02:31] <unop> Mr_Bad_News, those two pins could be anything :) please consult the manual to be sure what to do
[02:31] <k20a> isorbuttsor i don't want to because i have both 32 bit and 64 bit installed...i just want to update the kernal of my 64bit
[02:31] <shader42> macrobad: do you always stay up this late?
[02:31] <macrobad> shader42: Not really, since I don't code in C, and just studying linux so far. Perhaps, in winter...
[02:31] <Mr_Bad_News> one pin
[02:31] <unop> Mr_Bad_News, you should be able to get the manual on the vendor's website
[02:31] <DansTheMan> Holy moly!
[02:31] <Mr_Bad_News> one jumper with two pins i guess powertool08
[02:31] <DansTheMan> How many people on this IRC?
[02:31] <Mr_Bad_News> they say pswd unop
[02:31] <isorbuttsor> k2 can edit the menu to go to the 64 bit kernel
[02:31] <macrobad> shader42: No, something must have gone wrong with me on this week! :)
[02:31] <Mr_Bad_News> right under it
[02:32] <powertool08> Mr_Bad_News: it will have a label on the mobo next to it, probably CMOS or something, it can be hard to read tho
[02:32] <Mr_Bad_News> hell yes
[02:32] <Mr_Bad_News> got it
[02:32] <Mr_Bad_News> thanks powertool08
[02:32] <unop> Mr_Bad_News, well, again, that could be seen as quite ambiguous - pswd doesn't necessarily mean the BIOS password eh?
[02:32] <powertool08> np
[02:32] <Mr_Bad_News> do i put the plastic cover back on
[02:32] <Mr_Bad_News> or will that enable the password again
[02:33] <powertool08> yes, put the jumper back on
[02:33] <Otaru> boot with it off,  and then turn off and put back on
[02:33] <Otaru> that will re-enable the feature but not set a password
[02:33] <k20a> what do i type in terminal to update my kernal
[02:34] <unop> k20a, sudo aptitude install linux-image # probably
[02:34] <unop> k20a, actually run this first. sudo aptitude update
[02:34] <monostone> ok, I have an iso of a vcd, how can I play it? with VLC?
[02:34] <cowo_ganteng>  irc.dal.net
[02:34] <shader42> how do you specify a display when forwarding x11 over ssh?
[02:34] <unop> k20a, fyi, it's spelt kernel :)
[02:35] <powertool08> monostone: if its an iso you can mount it
[02:36] <unop> shader42,  DISPLAY=foobar ssh -X user@host  # foobar being the display or host:display
[02:36] <k20a> is <IP_ADDRESS>.20 the latest kernEl?
[02:36] <monostone> powertool08: yes, I have mounted it and i see the vcd folder structure: ext  mpegav  segment  vcd  but how to play .vcd files?
[02:36] <unop> k20a, you on hardy?
[02:36] <k20a> yep
[02:36] <shader42> unop: so I have to define display first?
[02:36] <Mr_Bad_News> now does anyone know how to change the color of the command line for the bios
[02:36] <powertool08> k20a: i installed hardy yesterday and have 2.6.24-19
[02:36] <Mr_Bad_News> or in tty
[02:37] <unop> shader42, yes in the current environment of the ssh command
[02:37] <powertool08> monostone: Hmmm, not sure, I've never opened a .vcd file
[02:37] <k20a> powertool weird cause im on <IP_ADDRESS>.20
[02:37] <monostone> ill google around some more
[02:37] <powertool08> k20a: when did you install?
[02:38] <draginxx> Is there anyway that I can connect to http://localhost within FF without getting that "Firefox cant browse the web in offline mode" error?
[02:38] <unop> k20a, 2.6.24-19 seems to be the latest in hardy-updates
[02:38] <Otaru> won't the player open it as a device (ie, like a dvd)?
[02:38] <aeshan> my hardy heron keeps crashing
[02:38] <k20a> alright thanks..i was having some errors and thought it was cause i wasn't up to date..guess i am
[02:38] <unop> k20a, kernels aren't upgraded unless really necessary
[02:38] <aeshan> im running AMD Semphron 1GB RAM
[02:38] <unop> k20a, although you can force an upgrade
[02:39] <powertool08> k20a: I think mine installed with the one you have, but it upgraded the kernel with my first boot
[02:39] <aeshan> can i repair ubuntu via some command-line ?
[02:39] <neil_d> I am trying to setup vnc login (number 4), I have put a line in /etc/services, and restart /etc/openbsd-inetd, now with netstat something should be listening on port 5904 ?
[02:39] <aeshan> sorta like XP Recovery or Repair mode?
[02:39] <powertool08> aeshan: probably but it doepends on your problem
[02:39] <aeshan> or must I uninstall ubuntu?
[02:40] <aeshan> powertool08, how do i re-install ubuntu to repair the problem?
[02:40] <powertool08> aeshan: what is the problem, you might not have to re-install
[02:40] <unop> neil_d, yes or was it 5903 for the 4th session .. can't remember exactly
[02:41] <unop> neil_d, actually, you might not see anything with netstat as you have inetd running vnc .. but you probably would see an open port if you used a port scanner
[02:41] <mlLK> i'm running heron on a laptop, and wish to repair my windows partition; given grub, i can't get the xp cd to see windows on my hd
[02:41] <aeshan> powertoo08, evertime I open my evolution,with firefox & pigin IM my PC hangs
[02:41] <jamus> is it possible to change mount position for a partition without format with gparted and such?
[02:41] <aeshan> i tried a different browser and the same occured after a period of time
[02:41] <patrickwang> ..
[02:41] <unop> jamus, yes, you need to edit the /etc/fstab file if the partition is a fixed partition
[02:42] <neil_d> unop: telnet says the port is closed.
[02:42] <unop> !fstab | jamus
[02:42] <unop> neil_d, why not use a vncviewer ?
[02:42] <cdoublejj|afk> k so i restarted and now it's doing the hdd ckeck shit again
[02:42] <powertool08> aeshan: check dmesg syslog and x logs for clues as to whats crashing and why
[02:42] <cdoublejj|afk> and linux isn't running smoothly
[02:42] <neil_d> unop: I did, but I wanted to check the port, so I used a simpler program.
[02:43] <cdoublejj|afk> i'm gonna check the hdd which i know is good if it hass errors i will suspect the hard drove controller
[02:43] <espinha> somebody use the mouse A4tech x-755 fs on ubuntu? plz
[02:43] <unop> neil_d, i understand the reasoning for using telnet .. but in my experience with inetd, telnet is not always reliable
[02:43] <powertool08> aeshan: and I would run 2 of the 3 varying one at a time to see which one is causing the crash if the logs don't tell you
[02:43] <powertool08> aeshan: 2 of the 3 without a replacement app for the 3rd
[02:43] <aeshan> powertool i'll try
[02:44] <neil_d> unop: oh!  didn't know that
[02:44] <aeshan> powertool, i also have a problemw ith my firefox
[02:44] <aeshan> the back/forward icons are missing
[02:44] <aeshan> using FF3
[02:45] <aeshan> tried uninstall/reinstall via synaptic
[02:45] <espinha> i have the mouse A4tech x-755fs but the 5 live thumb-buttons dont work, someany now do it working?
[02:45] <cdoublejj|afk> o thonk the hhd check just had me delet system files
[02:45] <aeshan> but no cigar :(
[02:45] <cdoublejj|afk> should have said no
[02:45] <DJ_HaMsTa> close! lol but no cigar
[02:46] <l815> is there a way to update to intrepid's kernel ONLY?
[02:46] <mlLK> !Partitions
[02:46] <mlLK> !gparted
[02:46] <TacticalFrostbit> i cant get my openssh-server to work
[02:46] <aeshan> powertool08, do u know how to repair ff3?
[02:46] <DJ_HaMsTa> error ?
[02:46] <aeshan> my ff3 icons are missing
[02:47] <espinha> pleaze
[02:47] <TacticalFrostbit> when i try to connect to my openssh-server i enter the pass and it doesnt even show the last login and doenst do anything. anyone know whats wrong?
[02:47] <espinha> someone can help me?
[02:47] <jamus> thnx
[02:47] <Bob_Sagot> quick question
[02:48] <Bob_Sagot> I am having troubles with hard drives on my system
[02:48] <overlordpuppy> Where can I get cmake 2.6?
[02:48] <[Iggy]> and the question?
[02:48] <Bob_Sagot> I just installed the Ubuntu 7.10 today and for some reason my account cannot mount or umount the drives
[02:48] <espinha> i cant install the 5 buttons of my mouse A4tech x-755 fs
[02:49] <Bob_Sagot> and I have done a lot but the most I can do right now is create and delete files
[02:49] <Bob_Sagot> so what do I need to change to let this account be able to mount and umount the drives?
[02:50] <tech0007> Bob_Sagot: sudo
[02:50] <the_padawan> hello all
[02:50] <Bob_Sagot> sudo what?
[02:51] <Bob_Sagot> I shouldnt need sudo in the GUI
[02:51] <the_padawan> i would like to read the songs off of an Ipod on ubuntu. if i use gtkpod, will it erase all of the songs? Will I be able to back them up to disk?
