[04:19] <dr_willis> CapriCorn^80,  id be impressed at such a site.
[04:19] <Felarin> if you can use WPA with your WPA card, your drivers are fine
[04:19] <Felarin> if you can only use WEP
[04:19] <kore2> Felarin: ok, let me see
[04:20] <Felarin>  you might need to check if ndiswrapper can be used with your model
[04:20] <omnius> CapriCorn: i use Wicd
[04:20] <Khrajin|sleep> Try using KNetworkManager
[04:20] <Felarin> kore2 : i can guarantee you that it's not your hardware now, lol, it's all configuration, DHCP is being screwed, did you try restarting as well?
[04:20] <kore2> Felarin: yeah, I tried
[04:21] <Felarin> alright, just use manual from now on
[04:21] <Felarin> get the gateway address
[04:21] <omnius> is there a way to bridge NIC's?
[04:21] <MiMiC> Felarin: can SWAP be on a extended partition?
[04:21] <sipior> omnius: yep, check out brctl
[04:21] <omnius> MiMiC: Mine is
[04:21] <Felarin> MiMiC : never tried, maybe someone else knows.
[04:21] <Felarin> i don't think gparted allows you to choose
[04:21] <MiMiC> omnius: hmm okay thanks i'll try that setup then
[04:21] <Khrajin> MiMiC: I thougth a SWAP partition was it's own extension al together....
[04:22] <Felarin> yep khrajin
[04:22] <Felarin> i believe khrajin is right
[04:22] <Felarin> a SWAP partition is on it's own
[04:22] <MiMiC> Felarin: I can use Acronis Disk Director to make it happen
[04:22] <Felarin> Linux itself can be run on a logical part
[04:22] <Khrajin> It is its own system because it's like temporary disk space.
[04:22] <Felarin> using that theory, if you can make it happen
[04:22] <Felarin> it should work
[04:22] <Khrajin> extra ram
[04:22] <MiMiC> oh
[04:22] <Felarin> but i have no idea how to make it happen
[04:22] <Felarin> yeah
[04:22] <Gabrie1> anyone can help me with dialup conection?
[04:22] <jonathan__> hello everbody
[04:22] <Felarin> it's like your PAGE file in Windows
[04:23] <Felarin> that's what your SWAP drive is
[04:23] <MiMiC> yes that I know...
[04:23] <Felarin> cept in Windows, page file = 1.5 x your actual physical RAM
[04:23] <jonathan__> anyone can help me to find the original directory of software?
[04:23] <MiMiC> hmm i'll try installing ubuntu on logical partiiton then... hopefully it will boot
[04:23] <jonathan__> I looking for my wine
[04:23] <Felarin> jonathan : what software?
[04:23] <Felarin> try this command
[04:23] <Felarin> whereis wine
[04:23] <Felarin> in the terminal
[04:23] <Khrajin> Felarin: But Swap actually works right vs taking up your writable hdd space lolol
[04:23] <jonathan__> I'm already installed those wine
[04:23] <Felarin> ooh wine?
[04:23] <jonathan__> and working well
[04:23] <Felarin> go to your /home/name directory
[04:23] <Felarin> it should be in a folder named .wine
[04:23] <jonathan__> in the first time
[04:24] <Felarin> cd .wine
[04:24] <Bitmess> sipior,  did I miss something?
[04:24] <Khrajin> home ./.wine/
[04:24] <Felarin> yep
[04:24] <jonathan__> and located in my accesoris
[04:24] <Felarin> /home/youraccountname/.wine
[04:24] <sipior> Bitmess: sorry, about what?
[04:24] <MiMiC> Felarin: you can change the pagefile size under windows
[04:24] <MiMiC> :P
[04:24] <Felarin> yes i know
[04:24] <Felarin> but the proper CALCULATION
[04:24] <Bitmess> sipior,  about knoppix sources.list. :)
[04:24] <ircleuser> hello
[04:24] <Felarin> = 1.5 x Physical RAM
[04:24] <jonathan__> but I don't know where is those original files on
[04:24] <Felarin> and i believe you can resize SWAP partitions.
[04:24] <Khrajin> MiMiC: your pagefile takes up actual disk space vs swap is a seperate partition
[04:25] <Felarin> yep
[04:25] <johnschroeder> how is everyone?
[04:25] <Felarin> there are differences between swap and pagefile
[04:25] <sipior> Bitmess: i couldn't tell you, i don't know much about it myself
[04:25] <pawitp> Felarin: There is never a proper calculation, but rather reasonable calculation
[04:25] <MiMiC> yup
[04:25] <johnschroeder> i have a quick question about ubunto server version 7
[04:25] <Felarin> SWAP = more efficient
[04:25] <jonathan__> anybody can help me to find winehq application?
[04:25] <Felarin> pawitp : yep
[04:25] <Khrajin> MiMiC: go to your regular c:\ and look for pagefile.sys or something like that, it will bel ike 3 gb (or whatever you set it to)
[04:25] <johnschroeder> i installed it and there is no GUI
[04:25] <MiMiC> 512MB :P
[04:25] <Bitmess> sipior,  thanks
[04:25] <Khrajin> !wine
[04:25] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:25] <digitalspaghetti> i'm ordering a new PC - my option is ATi or nVidia?
[04:25] <jonathan__> yes
[04:25] <Felarin> john : i believe it's all CLI
[04:25] <Khrajin> DigitallyStoned: Gaming?
[04:25] <MiMiC> digital: what do u wanna do? gaming?
[04:25] <pawitp> You can have a swap file but it'll be lower performance than a swap partition
[04:25] <whar> is there any site that can detect and install driver of my wireless card ?
[04:25] <thirdy> What's the forumw.org for Linux?
[04:25] <Gabrie1> plz.. someone help me with dialup conection
[04:25] <jonathan__> and I'm already installed wine
[04:26] <digitalspaghetti> nahh, it's for work
[04:26] <Felarin> john : you'd have to manually install a UI if  you want one with the server.
[04:26] <jonathan__> and already installed vlc
[04:26] <digitalspaghetti> i was stability
[04:26] <jonathan__> but
[04:26] <digitalspaghetti> i'll be doing a lot with video
[04:26] <johnschroeder> i see
[04:26] <Khrajin> DigitallyStoned: ATI is harder to get drivers for because they are persnickety about the data and nVidia is easy to get them
[04:26] <jonathan__> now the shortcut
[04:26] <MiMiC> digital: nvidia has great support on ubuntu. ati has only open-sourced drivers. they might or might not work that well
[04:26] <scarter> read quite a bit... many options assume you are adding additional packages to create a custom cd and not replacing existing old packages with their security/version update debs...  i was thinking of something like a slipstreaming process to create an updated install cd of the same version. any website suggestions?
[04:26] <jonathan__> is gone
[04:26] <Khrajin> DigitallyStoned: Otherwise, person preference
[04:26] <Pici> !enter | jonathan__
[04:26] <ubotu> jonathan__: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:26] <thirdy> Or any site wer I can download commercial games for linux?
[04:26] <johnschroeder> how hard is that? lol
[04:26] <johnschroeder> i am a linux newbie
[04:26] <jonathan__> ok
[04:26] <digitalspaghetti> so go for the nVidia if i want stability then
[04:27] <Khrajin> digitalspaghetti: Not stability, ease of installation
[04:27] <MiMiC> khrajin: also stability :D
[04:27] <pawitp> digitalspaghetti:Go for nVidia if you want linux, just that
[04:27] <Khrajin> DigitallyStoned: And try not to get something thats super brand new.
[04:27] <sipior> johnschroeder: "sudo aptitude install gnome" should do it
[04:27] <Khrajin> MiMiC: I'm running an ati card and its
[04:27] <jonathan__> my wine shortcut are gone and I can't find where those file originally installed
[04:27] <digitalspaghetti> i'll have a dual boot, so ok, nvidia it is then :)
[04:27] <Khrajin> out*
[04:27] <MiMiC> khrajin: were u able to run beryl/compiz?
[04:28] <inflex> hi, I need to install a commercial rpm package in Ubuntu - how do I install rpm's in Ubuntu?
[04:28] <whar> is there any site that can detect and install driver of my wireless card ?
[04:28] <Khrajin> MiMiC: Havn't tried,l but I can run WOW
[04:28] <Pici> jonathan__: If you install a windows app with wine it gets installed to ~/.wine/drive_c/
[04:28] <sipior> johnschroeder:  better would be "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop" should do it
[04:28] <dr_willis> !rpm
[04:28] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[04:28] <inflex> (so long as the files are installed, it's okay - I can make the startup bits
[04:28] <Felarin> johnschroeder : try CentOS if you need a server with UI, or if you just need linux with UI, grab Ubuntu Desktop, should help you since you dont know how to install X and a dm
[04:28] <jonathan__> ok
[04:28] <jonathan__> now I want to find files called: 'winefile'
[04:28] <Felarin> and CentOS uses RPM
[04:28] <MiMiC> khrajin: nice! and ur using open-sourced drivers?
[04:28] <johnschroeder> really
[04:29] <johnschroeder> so that is all i got to type interesting
[04:29] <pawitp> jonathan__: isn't winefile a file manager for wine
[04:29] <Khrajin> MiMiC: yeah
[04:29] <johnschroeder> i will try that
[04:29] <Felarin> yeah
[04:29] <Khrajin> MiMiC: FGLRX
[04:29] <Felarin> you can also apt-get
[04:29] <thirdy> Do you use anti-virus in linux?
[04:29] <Felarin> but you need a net connection on your ubuntu box
[04:29] <jonathan__> I want to make a new shortcut for winefile
[04:29] <Khrajin> Can anyone see this if this site is up please? http://<IP_ADDRESS>/
[04:29] <Felarin> yeah you can, but it's pointless thirdy
[04:29] <Pici> jonathan__: winefile should be in your path, you shouldnt have to find what directory its in.  But if you really want to know, type `whereis winefile`
[04:30] <thirdy> why?
[04:30] <Felarin> for new users, i suggest AVGfree for linux, they have a deb package on their site
[04:30] <thirdy> I'm new to linux
[04:30] <wols> thirdy: pretty much no one does except to scan for windows viruses.e.g. when you run a mailserver
[04:30] <iDN> Hi, I have another problem. I have downloaded StarDict, converted my Babylon dictionaries to its format using convdict, put them in the dic folder of StarDict.Everything work fine but the encoding of the language does not allow me to see the translation. Any help?
[04:30] <Felarin> cause Linux dosent need an anti-virus
[04:30] <jonathan__> oh...
[04:30] <Toma-> Khrajin: nope
[04:30] <jonathan__> I'll try
[04:30] <johnschroeder> it is unfamiliar with the command apitude
[04:30] <wols> thirdy: you don't need it. neither do you need a firewall
[04:30] <johnschroeder> ?????
[04:30] <Khrajin> Any suggestions why apache ha it up last night and its down today?
[04:30] <Felarin> there has not been one single successful linux virus to date. You might wanna get rkhunter to check for rootkits though
[04:30] <Toma-> Khrajin: i can ping it
[04:30] <sipior> johnschroeder: try apt-get, instead then
[04:30] <thirdy> ok
[04:30] <wols> Felarin: there have been succuessful ones
[04:30] <Toma-> Khrajin: did you restart?
[04:30] <thirdy> then site adsivor is enough
[04:30] <Khrajin> Toma-: No, should I?
[04:31] <verahsa> thirdy: the reason it's pointless is because the people writing virii generally don't write them for linux, and windows binaries (.exe files, etc) won't run natively on linux. add on top of that that linux is fairly secure on its own out of the box
[04:31] <Toma-> Khrajin: nope
[04:31] <jonathan__> ok
[04:31] <johnschroeder> i tried that still no luck
[04:31] <pawitp> wols: You should still use iptables
[04:31] <Felarin> tthere can't p;ossibly be because of most linux versions using restricted accounts
[04:31] <Felarin> how can they then spread?
[04:31] <visham> hi folks
[04:31] <jonathan__> I find it
[04:31] <mh_le> how does one send an email from the command line?
[04:31] <Felarin> none have spread successfully
[04:31] <sipior> johnschroeder: could you show exactly what you typed?
[04:31] <wols> pawitp: wrong
[04:31] <visham> i need some help installing a usb modem on breezy
[04:31] <Felarin> because of the fact that linux users, mostly don'
[04:31] <Felarin> use root accounts
[04:31] <MrC_> anyone in here using ubuntustudio?
[04:32] <wols> pawitp: you either don't open a certain port when it's bad (e.g. mysql) or you open it. (e.g. apache http server). no need for a firewall. especially not for people new to linux
[04:32] <erUSUL> visham: adsl?
[04:32] <johnschroeder> sudo apitude install ubuntu-desktop
[04:32] <Felarin> keep in mind that viruses are meant to spread, rootkits are diff altogether.
[04:32] <iDN> Someone?
[04:32] <ahmed> how to set the default mp3 player to be amorak ?
[04:32] <Khrajin> Ontop of all that Windows users are generally all admin accounts so that is how it gets really bad
[04:32] <johnschroeder> sudo apt get install ubuntu-desktop
[04:32] <Felarin> try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[04:32] <sipior> johnschroeder: aptitude is spelled wrong
[04:32] <Pici> mh_le: Take a look at the mail manpage.
[04:32] <johnschroeder> haha
[04:32] <jonathan__> thank you all for you help
[04:32] <clever> if i have a dualboot setup could i say put ubuntu into hibernation and boot into the other os?
[04:32] <johnschroeder> darn
[04:32] <Elko> How could I convert a mp4 movie file to avi?
[04:32] <Khrajin> Elko: VLC
[04:32] <ahmed> how to set the default mp3 player to be amorak ?
[04:32] <pawitp> Felarin: if linux users start running mail attachment(i.e. installer) which is a virus, they will spread (probably won't happen)
[04:32] <johnschroeder> ok
[04:32] <johnschroeder> it is now installing
[04:32] <Elko> Khrajin: That converts, next to playing it?
[04:32] <johnschroeder> but it looks like it is installing the desktop
[04:32] <Felarin> pwaitp : if it could happen, it would have happened years ago
[04:33] <Felarin> it's not like malicious users don't target linux boxes, they do
[04:33] <johnschroeder> what will that do for me? give me the gui? or desktop edition of ubuntu
[04:33] <Toma-> Khrajin: did your router/firewall get reset or anything like that over night?
[04:33] <Khrajin> Elko: Aye, Look around in the file tab
[04:33] <Felarin> but it's not easy to do as much dmg, as say.. on a Windows box.
[04:33] <visham> erUSUL, yes its a adsl modem
[04:33] <erUSUL> !adsl | visham
[04:33] <Felarin> because of the way accounts work in Linux.
[04:33] <pawitp> Felarin: They're targeting servers not newbies
[04:33] <Felarin> yep, but a lot of us run servers too
[04:33] <Pici> !offtopic
[04:33] <ubotu> visham: Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[04:33] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:33] <Felarin> i am more afraid of rootkits to be honest
[04:33] <Felarin> get rootkit hunter
[04:33] <Tinned_Tuna> rootkits?! WHERE
[04:34] <johnschroeder> sipior?
[04:34] <Felarin> compile and install and type sudo rkhunter -c -sk
[04:34] <erUSUL> visham: in that page you wil find instruccions for dsl modems
[04:34] <sipior> johnschroeder: yes?
[04:34] <Felarin> checks your system for rootkits
[04:34] <johnschroeder> what will that do for me? give me the gui? or desktop edition of ubuntu
[04:34] <pawitp> rootkits!?
[04:34] <sipior> johnschroeder: yes to both
[04:34] <Felarin> john : give you the GUI
[04:34] <johnschroeder> k
[04:34] <Felarin> it changes server to desktop?
[04:34] <Felarin> i didn't know that
[04:34] <Pici> Felarin: yes.
[04:34] <hwilde> why doesn't mozilla firefox come with java plugin?   this manual install does not work!
[04:34] <Felarin> oh damn, that's lame
[04:35] <Felarin> what if i installed X and GNOME on my own?
[04:35] <Tinned_Tuna> hwilde: automatix2 :)
[04:35] <pawitp> Felarin: stop using closed source drivers
[04:35] <LjL> !automatix
[04:35] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[04:35] <Pici> !automatic | Tinned_Tuna
[04:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about automatic - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:35] <MiMiC> hwilde: www.ubuntuguide.org
[04:35] <Tinned_Tuna> !automatix | hwilde
[04:35] <Felarin> pawitp : =.=
[04:35] <ubotu> hwilde: please see above
[04:35] <Pici> LjL: do you have automatix on hilight?
[04:35] <Felarin> lol
[04:35] <rmd_> ok, i've installed a theme, but it isn't showing all the theme options or changing the colors on the windows.  any ideas?  ubuntu 7.04 fres install, trying ti install ATER theme
[04:36] <LjL> Pici, i don't disclose my highlights :)
[04:36] <hwilde> All of your ! links are not helpful.  I have downloaded the jre .bin from the java site and it will not install manually.  this should not be so difficult
[04:36] <visham> erUSUL, i checked that page already its about draper and it tells u how to set up a adsl modem using a network card
[04:36] <visham> i want to connect a adsl usb modem on breezy
[04:36] <MiMiC> hwilde: sudo synaptic, search for "jre", and install it there
[04:36] <Khrajin> Toma-: Highly likely. What would I have to do in that case?
[04:36] <Felarin> hwilde : grab the mozilla-java-plugin DEB package from packages.ubuntu.com
[04:36] <Felarin> it's a lot less troublesome
[04:37] <Toma-> Khrajin: open the ports to connect
[04:37] <hwilde> Felarin, yes now this is helpful
[04:37] <Felarin> yeah, that website is easy mode
[04:37] <Felarin> and it shows you ALL dependencies too
[04:37] <Felarin> so if you need to grab anything else, just do and put them all in one folder
[04:37] <Felarin> and go to term
[04:37] <Felarin> go to the folder
[04:37] <Felarin> and type sudo dpkg -i *.deb
[04:37] <LjL> Felarin: uhm, and i missing something?
[04:37] <Felarin> and bam, you have everything
[04:37] <dr_willis> hwilde,  the java wiki page - last i looked mentioned the exact package to install with the package manager to get the sun java. it wasent that hard.
[04:38] <Khrajin> Toma-: The router was power cycled, and the settings are still good to pass 80 thru
[04:38] <Toma-> Khrajin: id say give a restart of the httpd a start. not the wqhole computer
[04:38] <dr_willis> hwilde,  i havent needed to install the .bin in ages.
[04:38] <LjL> Felarin: the packages at packages.ubuntu.com are the packages available in the repositories, so why do it in such awkward way?
[04:38] <Toma-> Khrajin: ahh ok
[04:38] <whar> tell me some best tools for configuring wireless on ubuntu edgy ???
[04:38] <Khrajin> Toma-: How do I do that?
[04:38] <Felarin> cause sometimes, their apt sources list are so screwed up
[04:38] <Felarin> it's best to go that way
[04:38] <visham> hey adsl usb modem help needed
[04:38] <Felarin> and windows users who are switching just love websites that have everything
[04:38] <jonathan__> anybody know how to get a mac address
[04:38] <LjL> Felarin: i doubt that highly. if sources.list is broken, it must be fixed, or the system will break anyway
[04:38] <Felarin> seeing a blackscreen gives them jitters
[04:38] <MiMiC> whar: networkmanager, or just install/upgrade to feisty
[04:38] <Toma-> Khrajin: something like 'sudo /etc/init.d/httpd (or apache2) restart'
[04:38] <hwilde> dr_willis, firefox goes to the find plugin link, locates jre and goes to manual install, that points to this page: http://java.com/en/download/index.jsp  I tried both the rpm.bin and the .bin and it doesn't work
[04:39] <RabidWeezle> beats blue screens
[04:39] <LjL> Felarin: there's Synaptic, no need for a black screen. your advice is very misleading, seriously.
[04:39] <Felarin> it may not be broken, but some sources may be commented out.
[04:39] <jonathan__> if in command prompt we must use getmac
[04:39] <Pici> jonathan__: ifconfig shows it under HWaddress
[04:39] <Felarin> they told him about synaptic
[04:39] <slash> ...
[04:39] <jonathan__> but in terminal?
[04:39] <Felarin> but it isn't what he wants
[04:39] <jonathan__> oh...
[04:39] <Tinned_Tuna> jonathan__: it should be there automatically, a MAC address is your NIC's hardware address ?
[04:39] <LjL> hwilde: what was the problem again? you're trying to get Java working?
[04:39] <jonathan__> ifcofig
[04:39] <Pici> jonathan__: ifconfig
[04:39] <RabidWeezle> synaptic rocks :)
[04:39] <whar> tell me some best tools for configuring wireless on ubuntu edgy ???
[04:39] <jonathan__> ifconfig
[04:39] <LjL> hwilde: as in, "working for applets in a web browser"?
[04:39] <rmd_> okay.  i'm trying to install a theme... any theme... none of the theme files i've downloaded will change the color scheme of metacity/gtk, whatever....
[04:39] <LjL> !wifi > whar    (whar, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:39] <Pici> jonathan__: you need to type it in a terminal
[04:39] <jonathan__> just like ipconfig hah?
[04:39] <wols> whar: an editor
[04:39] <MiMiC> hwilde: simplest solution :D "sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-fonts"
[04:39] <jonathan__> ini windows
[04:39] <shiftplusone> does anyone know a support channel for sound issues?
[04:39] <Khrajin> Toma-: http://<IP_ADDRESS>/ ?
[04:39] <LjL> !enter | jonathan__
[04:39] <ubotu> jonathan__: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:39] <dr_willis> hwilde,  you DONT want to let firefox do it. You just need to install the  sun-java6-jre - Sun Java(TM) Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 (architecture independent files)  Package
[04:40] <LjL> shiftplusone: no, there's this channel.
[04:40] <LjL> !sound > shiftplusone    (shiftplusone, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:40] <jonathan__> ok
[04:40] <Toma-> Khrajin: still no go
[04:40] <jonathan__> I'll try to not press enter key as punctuation
[04:40] <Toma-> Khrajin: your 80 port is filtered..
[04:40] <shiftplusone> nuh, none of those help me and I have asked the question several times... nobody knows what's the problem
[04:40] <sipior> jonathan__: lol
[04:41] <RabidWeezle>     A virus scanner for Linux/Unix systems
[04:41] <hwilde> dr_willis, ok but that's what firefox points to...
[04:41] <Khrajin> Toma-: I have port 80 setup to be forwarded to the server
[04:41] <jonathan__> sipior: lol
[04:41] <hwilde> LjL, I just need firefox java plugin that's all...
[04:41] <Toma-> Khrajin: right.
[04:41] <RabidWeezle> come on, I have run linux for forkin years, and never caught a single virus...
[04:41] <Tinned_Tuna> RabidWeezle: I use ClamAV :p
[04:41] <MiMiC> hwilde: type "sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-fonts" in terminal
[04:41] <johnschroeder> sipior, it is still installing, :(
[04:41] <hwilde> MiMiC, it's downloading in synaptic already
[04:41] <visham> help needed to setup a usb adsl modem on breezy
[04:41] <jonathan__> there is not such a virus in linux
[04:41] <MiMiC> kk that too :P
[04:41] <Khrajin> Toma-: Rebooting it
[04:41] <hwilde> !adsl | visham
[04:42] <Tinned_Tuna> yea, I have a VM that writes to SMB shares, I need to scan those as other windows boxen could get 'ill'
[04:42] <ubotu> visham: Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[04:42] <sipior> johnschroeder: slow internet connection? it's a big package, with dependancies
[04:42] <dr_willis> hwilde,  dosent matter. the 'ubuntu' way is to use the package manager.
[04:42] <RabidWeezle> oh?
[04:42] <RabidWeezle> I don't use a vm, I just got many pc's :)
[04:42] <visham> ubotu,  i checked the site already i need to set up the adsl modem via the usb
[04:42] <crockodie> how can i make my ubuntu a webserver?
[04:42] <Felarin> if they so so, hey hwilde : just use synaptic
[04:42] <Toma-> Khrajin: ok
[04:42] <wols> crockodie: install apache
[04:42] <dr_willis> crockodie,  install apache2 (or whatever its called)
[04:42] <Toma-> !lamp | crockodie
[04:42] <ubotu> crockodie: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[04:42] <wols> crockodie: rather, apache2
[04:42] <RabidWeezle> this is the house of geek
[04:42] <RabidWeezle> :)
[04:42] <jonathan__> anybody can help me to install internet explorer 7 in my wine?
[04:42] <johnschroeder> umm no internet connection should be fast. of course it is only a cable modem no t1 line or anything
[04:43] <Felarin> internet explorer 7 in wine?
[04:43] <Felarin> that's new
[04:43] <wols> jonathan__: no. ask microsoft, not us
[04:43] <RabidWeezle> only VM I use is for pearpc for osx tiger
[04:43] <Toma-> crockodie: if youre after something very simple, thttpd is a great little server
[04:43] <MiMiC> lol
[04:43] <jonathan__> ha2
[04:43] <crockodie> hmmm do i have to configure my router to forward to port 80 or other port ?
[04:43] <Felarin> seriously man, that's new
[04:43] <jonathan__> ask for microsuck hah?
[04:43] <LjL> Felarin: it's not. many people who do web design need their site to be tested on IE.
[04:43] <MiMiC> jonathan: what's wrong with firefox?
[04:43] <wols> Felarin: testing a site in different browsers it makes sense. still: OT in #ubuntu
[04:43] <jonathan__> that's good
[04:43] <jonathan__> just only test those wine
[04:43] <RabidWeezle> didn't bill just take linus to court for copyright infringment?
[04:43] <Felarin> you might as well create a VM
[04:44] <Felarin> and test there
[04:44] <MiMiC> aha
[04:44] <crockodie> Toma- thttpd ? i never heard about this one can u guide setting this up ?
[04:44] <Pici> !ies4linux | jonathan__
[04:44] <ubotu> jonathan__: ies4linux is a script that quickly and effortlessly helps you install 3 versions of IE in Wine. Information can be found at http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page including instructions specifically for Ubuntu. ies4linux is aimed at web designers and ie-only sites, so please, dont use any of the IEs to navigate! Use Firefox!
[04:44] <wols> RabidWeezle: no
[04:44] <Felarin> test whatever microsoft you want
[04:44] <LjL> !offtopic | RabidWeezle
[04:44] <ubotu> RabidWeezle: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:44] <RabidWeezle> :/
[04:44] <elkbuntu> Pici, does ies4linux do ie7 now?
[04:44] <Toma-> crockodie: the /etc/thttpd/conf file will guide you
[04:44] <hwilde> so I have to dl 27MB just for a java plugin?? it should be tiny mozilla-jre-plugin package
[04:44] <Pici> elkbuntu: I'm not sure, I saw something about it but it isnt on their main page.
[04:44] <Khrajin> Toma-: How do you force a machine to have an IP address?
[04:44] <hwilde> Khrajin, man ifconfig
[04:44] <Toma-> Khrajin: static ips?
[04:44] <Pici> elkbuntu: I dont use it :/
[04:44] <jonathan__> might be this is right to change my OS to linux
[04:45] <Khrajin> Toma-: Static local
[04:45] <klav> ^^
[04:45] <jonathan__> this is much more secure and better
[04:45] <crockodie> Toma- but do i have to set my router forward to port 80 or its automatically listen to port 80 ?
[04:45] <MiMiC> hwilde: u need to have JRE in order to run the plugin... the plugin simply starts java
[04:45] <Toma-> Khrajin: its more to do with your router. disable dhcp and enable static ips, then setup your computer to have its assigned IP from the router
[04:45] <wols> crockodie: you need the router port forward it
[04:45] <MiMiC> hwilde: after installing sun's java, type "java -version" and make sure u get sun's version, not the crappy gcj
[04:45] <Khrajin> Toma-: ah k
[04:45] <Toma-> crockodie: youll need to make the conf file bind your servers ip to your router and yes, open the 80 port
[04:45] <hwilde> MiMiC, it is installing sun-java6-bin package
[04:46] <wols> Khrajin: edit /etc/network/interfaces and set the IP static. man interfaces
[04:46] <crockodie> yeah but im running DCHP in my router .. is it better to configure my static IP ?
[04:46] <Khrajin> wolki: thx
[04:46] <wols> crockodie: for portforwarding it can be
[04:46] <Omnius> I tried brctl and it stuffed my network
[04:46] <crockodie> wols but i already havestatic IP
[04:46] <Toma-> crockodie: not really. just setup your DHCP leases for like a week, then dont turn off your computer for more than a week :)
[04:47] <elkbuntu> pici http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Beta
[04:47] <crockodie> yeah its been 4yrs now never shut down my pc
[04:47] <wols> crockodie: then it's fine
[04:47] <sipior> Omnius: well, you might have to read the man page first :)
[04:47] <crockodie> im running redhat before
[04:47] <ROPSS3> Hmm, a lot more people here than I thought there would be.
[04:47] <Pici> jonathan__: See http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Beta for getting ie7 installed
[04:47] <crockodie> now im changing to ubuntu
[04:47] <wols> Omnius: and/or a howto
[04:47] <Pici> elkbuntu: thanks, I passed it on.
[04:47] <rmd_> okay.  i've tried several times to install a theme archive now.  the theme does not appear on the list after installation, except under the heading of "custom theme" and it does not change the colors.  this happens for all themes i've tried to install.
[04:48] <Omnius> lol
[04:48] <ROPSS3> Well I suppose someone can help me with my Divx problem?
[04:48] <pegger> for evolution can  you sync your contacts with a imap server???
[04:48] <Omnius> i did
[04:48] <hwilde> MiMiC, dr_willis, E: /var/cache/apt/archives/sun-java6-bin_6-00-2ubuntu2_i386.deb: subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 1
[04:48] <Pici> rmd_: Its possible that those themes dont support changing the colors.
[04:48] <MiMiC> rmd, if u really want themes, easiest way i know is installing beryl and using their theme manager GUI :P
[04:48] <otman> hy all
[04:48] <Lilacor> !anyone
[04:48] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:48] <Omnius> i bridged my if's ok then removed them from the bridge and now i cant get online
[04:48] <Pici> MiMiC: You must have a twisted definition of easy.
[04:48] <visham_> usb adsl modem help
[04:48] <MiMiC> hwilde: what's ur question?
[04:48] <rmd_> Pichi, every screenshot i've seen of the themes i've been trying to install shows them with drastically different colors
[04:48] <johnschroeder> sipior, do you get paid to sit here and chat and help people?
[04:49] <crockodie> i agree to MiMiC install beryl its cool
[04:49] <sipior> Omnius: do you still have a default route?
[04:49] <Omnius> not sure
[04:49] <sipior> johnschroeder: not generally. do you get paid to ask questions?
[04:49] <MiMiC> pici: if theme is what he's asking for, he'll discover a whole crapload of goodies with beryl. I say worth the pain :D
[04:49] <wols> Omnius: /etc/init.d/networking restart
[04:49] <johnschroeder> pretty much, this is for my company not myself haha
[04:49] <johnschroeder> you sure are being a great help to me
[04:49] <ROPSS3> Can anyone help me to get divx and stage 6 movies working?
[04:49] <Omnius> ok i'll try that thanks
[04:49] <hwilde> MiMiC, I installed the package from synaptic and it gave me that error!   This is my first time using ubuntu and I'm enjoy it!
[04:50] <johnschroeder> gotcha, this chat room is pretty useful though
[04:50] <ROPSS3> Could you possibly link me to that
[04:50] <ROPSS3> I installed vlc once and it wasn't so helpful.
[04:50] <clever> if i have a dualboot setup could i say put ubuntu into hibernation and boot into the other os?
[04:50] <_pinky_> hello world
[04:50] <crockodie> is it possible to run Ubuntu in Windows XP using VMware ?
[04:50] <Lilacor> ROPSS3: no, use your synaptic package manager
[04:50] <shoot`> guys, im trying to send email using postfix for smtp, running locally... however, i get delivery failure notification from both gmail and hotmail, stating its for "policy reasons on the gateway". I'm guessing its because its a server running on a local machine... but anyone got any ideas how i can get around it? dont want to use my own ISPs cos its been kinda unreliable.
[04:50] <Pici> !codecs | ROPSS3 take a look at these links
[04:50] <ubotu> ROPSS3 take a look at these links: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[04:50] <ROPSS3> Ah okay
[04:50] <_pinky_> clever : of corse
[04:51] <MiMiC> hwilde: I've never seen that error before. what is ur version of ubuntu?
[04:51] <clever> _pinky_: good:)
[04:51] <crockodie> is it possible to run Ubuntu in Windows XP using VMware ?
[04:51] <Pici> crockodie: Very possible.
[04:51] <clever> _pinky_: but im guessing i shouldnt have the fat32 mounted under ubuntu though
[04:51] <hwilde> MiMiC, 2.6.20-15-generic #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 07:36:31 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[04:51] <johnschroeder> how do you people get into all this, especially linux? i have really gotten in to windows and macs but not linux
[04:51] <clever> at the time of entering hibernation
[04:51] <MiMiC> ROP: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Multimedia_Players_.26_Browser_Plug-ins
[04:51] <crockodie> Pici can u guide me
[04:51] <verahsa> johnschroeder: can't speak for anyone else, but for me i got curious and devoted time to it.
[04:51] <Lilacor> johnschroeder: boredom
[04:51] <_pinky_> crockodie : it's possible yes
[04:52] <MiMiC> hwilde: try this version instead: open up a new terminal, and type "sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin sun-java6-fonts"
[04:52] <johnschroeder> i see
[04:52] <crockodie> what programs do i need to download
[04:52] <rmd_> this is pretty pathetic.  a system that can't even change themes correctly...
[04:52] <klav> ?
[04:52] <johnschroeder> i can not even begin to understand how linux is structured i mean there is all kinds of differ linux os.
[04:52] <MiMiC> rmd: do u have ATI or Nvidia?
[04:53] <hwilde> So the Synaptic sun-java6 package does not work??
[04:53] <Pici> crockodie: Take a look at this very good tutorial, it explains everything: http://www.tanguay.info/web/tutorial.php?idCode=installUbuntuOnVmware
 : you can do it in /etc/fstab
[04:53] <Tinned_Tuna> hwilde: automatix !
[04:53] <crockodie> Pici which program do i need to download to do that ?
[04:53] <MiMiC> hwilde: jus follow my instructions. it always works for me
[04:53] <sipior> johnschroeder: the differences are pretty minimal, and principally on the administration end of things
[04:53] <wols> !automatix
[04:53] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[04:53] <rmd_> MiMiC, why would that matter in the least for changing colors according to a theme?
[04:53] <wols> Tinned_Tuna: we don't support that
[04:53] <LjL> johnschroeder, some things are specific to the Linux kernel - some things are specific to Unix (or POSIX) systems in general - some things are quite Debian centric.
[04:53] <_pinky_> clever  : to mount automtcally an fat32 FSs
[04:53] <Pici> Tinned_Tuna: Can you please stop suggesting automatix and take a look at ubotu's message about it.
[04:53] <MiMiC> rmd: i strongly recommend installing beryl if you want to change colors, get cooler effects, new skins, etc etc
[04:54] <tinin> !WorksForMe
[04:54] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[04:54] <crockodie> Pici what program do i need to download to do that
[04:54] <Tinned_Tuna> wols: personal experience shows different for me, but if you don't like it...
[04:54] <wols> Tinned_Tuna: I don't care about. the channel doesnA't like it
[04:54] <MiMiC> rmd: go to www.ubuntuguide.org, search for beryl, and follow their detailed instructions. It should be a breeze if you have the latest ubuntu
[04:54] <johnschroeder> so the best way to learn is to install any of linux os that are gui if you can and learn that way, and work from there or try things, mainly with this ubuntu server i am looking to run it as a web server
[04:54] <adriano> please , with i install NVU, i not be repository of the NVU
[04:54] <rmd_> MiMiC, I don't want Beryl.  I want the supposed functionality of the system to function.  i do not want more crap, on top of this ridiculous amount of GNOME stuff sitting in RAM.
[04:54] <LjL> Tinned_Tuna: we don't like it indeed. feel free to use it if it works for you, just don't recommend it here, please.
[04:54] <Pici> crockodie: Huh? The page I linked to you explains what you need. I'm not sure what program you are asking about.
[04:54] <_pinky_> clever  : to mount automtcally an fat32 FSs  by editing etc fstab
[04:54] <clever> _pinky_: yeah i know how to auto mount the fat32 but if the fat32 is in use by ubuntu when it goes into hibernation
[04:55] <tobyb> Ubuntu newbie: With a Norton Ghost image of my XP system, if I screw-up my Ubuntu dual-boot install setup (with GRUB in the MBR) will restoring my XP image restore my MBR and return me to my pre-install state?
[04:55] <BrixSat> i need some help?
[04:55] <rmd_> I want the themes to do what they are supposed to.  it doesn't seem all that complicated.
[04:55] <jaypro> do you guys know of a program that can import *.pst files that were originally from microsoft outlook?
[04:55] <clever> _pinky_: then i boot the fat32 and modify it...
[04:55] <MiMiC> rmd: in that case, sorry, I do not know why you cannot change themes...

[04:55] <ubotu> jaypro: readpst: Converts Outlook PST files to mbox and others. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.1-1 (feisty), package size 54 kB, installed size 192 kB
[04:55] <clever> _pinky_: ubuntu's cache/state for the fat32 mounting wont match up right when it comes out of hibernation id think
[04:55] <LjL> jaypro: that was easily found by me by typing "apt-cache search outlook". learning to search repositories is very important.

[04:56] <MiMiC> rmd: my only suggestion is try updating your system with "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get upgrade". that might fix some bugs that ur programs might have
[04:56] <rmd_> BrixSat, you can't.  the function is broken to the point of being essentially useless.
[04:56] <adriano> CheshireViking, What i can install in the place it ?
[04:56] <rmd_> MiMiC, I am completely up to date.

[04:56] <jrib> !themes > BrixSat (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:56] <_pinky_> clever : ah ok
[04:56] <BrixSat> so i cant use themes unless i use the ones it has got?
[04:57] <rmd_> jrib, well, until someone can show me otherwise, all I can tell someone is what i have seen, which is that the option is completely useless
[04:57] <Pici> BrixSat: Of course you can.  Take a look at the message from ubotu
[04:57] <jrib> BrixSat: you can.  Go to one of the websites ubotu gave you, find a nice theme, download it.  Then drag it into the system > preferences > themes dialog
[04:57] <jaypro> LjL ahhh...never knew about that.  Thanks!
[04:57] <lusepuster> Hi folks - just installed PCLOS on an extra partition. Might have been stupid, but I let PCLOS setup GRUB, and now I have a hard time booting into Ubuntu
[04:57] <clever> _pinky_: also i probly shouldnt touch the ext3 from win98 but thats near imposible:P
[04:57] <jrib> rmd_: then make it clear that it doesn't work for *you*
[04:57] <_pinky_> clever : i think that it's ceate a temporary  files on fat32 fs
[04:57] <riotkittie> ew. irssi in an xshell makes me feel so ... dirty
[04:57] <klav> Yes - installing themes has been easy as pie for me
[04:57] <ikonia> lusepuster: define hard time
[04:57] <clever> the fat32 im using for some data storage and for win98
[04:58] <klav> Anyone have a good link for adding addition codecs?
[04:58] <BrixSat> for example in gnome-look i have the metacity themes and the gdm themes? what are the ones i need?
[04:58] <clever> but since i can write to it from linux its not realy in the way any
[04:58] <rmd_> jrib, right, well, i apologize, "out of the box, none of the supported themes work in any way correctly"  sorry.
[04:58] <_pinky_> clever :  good luck :)
[04:58] <_pinky_> bye
[04:58] <clever> main problem is ym 128mb ram is making the installer a bit slow
[04:58] <MiMiC> klav: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_Multimedia_Codecs
[04:58] <LjL> clever: what installed, the Desktop CD installer? 128Mb is *very* borderline for that.
[04:58] <Pici> rmd_: Can you link me to a theme that you're trying to install and colorize so I can attempt to duplicate the issue here?
[04:59] <clever> yeah desktop for 7.04
[04:59] <rmd_> oh, wait, *for me* because i'm certain it has something to do with my system, forgetting of course that the entire thing is completely uncustomized... mostly because it has been impossible to do so.
[04:59] <lusepuster> ikonia, sorry - the bootup screen is replaced by scrolling text mode, ubuntu boots fine but the sound doesn't work. Once logged into ubuntu, the screen goes white an I only see the mouse cursor

[04:59] <RabidWeezle> what version of gtk does 6.10 use?
[04:59] <jrib> BrixSat: metacity themes control what the window decorations look like, gtk themes control the buttons and other controls.  gdm themes are for the login window

[04:59] <rmd_> Pici: Also Blended...
[04:59] <RabidWeezle> 2.x?
[04:59] <Pici> rmd_: okay, let me check. Give me a few minutes.
[04:59] <BrixSat> what theme manager does ubuntu has?
[04:59] <rmd_> Pici: and every other theme I've downloaded.
[04:59] <ikonia> lusepuster: the scrolling text is because you've overwritten the version of grub installed with the grub version from another OS
[04:59] <ROPSS3> Okay I installed all the VLC plugins and everything
[04:59] <ROPSS3> still not able to watch it
[05:00] <_malajenho_> hi
[05:00] <clever> with swap off the livecd wouldnt realy even run on 128mb ram
[05:00] <riotkittie> ew. with 128mb ram, there are better distro options.
[05:00] <LjL> !info libgtk2.0-0 | RabidWeezle
[05:00] <ubotu> rabidweezle: libgtk2.0-0: The GTK+ graphical user interface library. In component main, is optional. Version 2.10.11-0ubuntu3 (feisty), package size 2481 kB, installed size 5372 kB
[05:00] <lusepuster> ikonia: Okay, yes that is probably true
[05:00] <LjL> !info libgtk2.0-0 edgy > RabidWeezle
[05:00] <jrib> !changethemes > BrixSat (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:00] <clever> but i added 'init=/bin/bash' to the kernel line and that let me enable swap very early on
[05:00] <lusepuster> ikonia: Can I simply do that once again w the Feisty live cd?
[05:00] <leagris> Hello, still having some problem reading some DVD. Despite having latest libdvdcss2 1.2.9. Some DVD are partially vieuwable and part of the titles cause seeks to non existant blocks. Cane someone help?
[05:00] <_malajenho_> anyone could to help me to fix my ftp server??
[05:00] <clever> then i just exec /sbin/init and it acted like a normal boot up
[05:00] <rmd_> Oh and this is cute now, I downloaded a file that ends in .tar.gz as a GDM theme, and i'm trying to install it, and the installer is telling me that it is not a file that ends in .tar.gz, even though it is obviously named thusly
[05:00] <djieno> Can anybody help me out making a cross cable connection between two dapper server machines?
[05:00] <ikonia> lusepuster: you can re-install fesity yes
[05:00] <adriano> CheshireViking, thanks ....
[05:00] <johnschroeder> 6 minutes left to finish installing!!
[05:00] <rmd_> this is truly amazin
[05:01] <lusepuster> ikonia - can't I just reinstall grub w/o reinstalling all feisty?
[05:01] <LjL> rmd_: is there a bug filed?
[05:01] <leagris> djieno, are you using ethernet?
[05:01] <djieno> hi
[05:01] <djieno> yes
[05:01] <ikonia> lusepuster: you can, but I don't know what else has changed, sounds like other things have been changed due to sound/screen not working too
[05:02] <leagris> djieno, any modern NIC card wil sens data path and kindl cross connect even on stright ethernet cables.
[05:02] <rmd_> LjL: i don't know, i've tried googling "themes just flat out do not work on a completely fresh system" isn't bringing much up
[05:02] <johnschroeder> sipior: so when i typed in aptitude, all it did was download from a server the package?
[05:02] <BrixSat> yes but what is the default theme manager
[05:02] <djieno> i have both servers eth1 in same subnet
[05:02] <sipior> johnschroeder: should have installed it as well
[05:02] <jrib> BrixSat: I told you, system -> preferences -> themes
[05:02] <_malajenho_> anyone is using proftpd or similar????
[05:02] <sipior> johnschroeder: and all the packages it needs as well
[05:02] <lusepuster> ikonia: Screen works fine, I get the Ubuntu login screen, and it loads the panels and so before going blank
[05:02] <ikonia> _malajenho_: just ask the question
[05:02] <djieno> leagris, two 3com network 3c509 cards
[05:02] <wols> djieno: what is in your /etc/network/interfaces ?
[05:03] <ikonia> lusepuster: so its going blank - therefore doesn't work
[05:03] <clever> leagris: i think only my newrouter and my newest laptop can do that and i beleive its called something like auto crossover
[05:03] <LjL> rmd_: when i say "bug", i mean Ubuntu bug. which hardly involves Google. search http://bugs.ubuntu.com for "themes" or "gnome themes", and if you don't find a bug report, make one.
[05:03] <leagris> djieno, check the link is physically up and with same parameters with tehtool
[05:03] <sipior> johnschroeder: you'll probably want to restart to make sure that gnome comes up properly
[05:03] <BrixSat> jrib but when i do install a theme it should be for metacity or what else?
[05:03] <johnschroeder> sipior: oh i see, all i did was download the ubuntu server, and what your saying is i should have download everything?
[05:03] <tobyb> is having an XP disk image a good recovery safeguard in case I botch my Ubuntu dual-boot install attempt? can i restore the image and thus wipe out grub in my MBR?
[05:03] <lusepuster> ikonia: yes, but it isn't any hardware thing, that's what I mean
[05:03] <djieno> leagris, what is the tool?
[05:03] <jrib> BrixSat: metacity themes control what the window decorations look like, gtk themes control the buttons and other controls.  gdm themes are for the login window
[05:03] <_malajenho_> I've installed proftpd, and configured, but it doesn't work
[05:03] <sipior> johnschroeder: no. it grabbed all the packages it needed for the GNOME desktop, and installed them
[05:03] <ikonia> lusepuster: of course its not
[05:03] <leagris> djieno, spelled it ethtool
[05:03] <sipior> johnschroeder: you should be good to o
[05:03] <ikonia> _malajenho_: define doesn't work
[05:03] <BrixSat> thanks jrib i got it now
[05:03] <BrixSat> :)
[05:03] <djieno> allright..sorry :-)
[05:03] <sipior> johnschroeder: go
[05:03] <jrib> BrixSat: great
[05:03] <_malajenho_> ok
[05:04] <Pici> rmd_: Okay, I think I know what the issue is.
[05:04] <djieno> leagris, wols, how can i filter you instead of all ?
[05:04] <djieno> sorry first time irc
[05:04] <sipior> johnschroeder: so try restarting the machine and see if it worked properly
[05:04] <rmd_> Pici: ??
[05:04] <leagris> djieno, open a private room
[05:04] <johnschroeder> i see, so it just grabbed what i need to see the GNOME desktop, but not it is different from the acutal ubuntu desktop edition right? there is a difference but it is the same?
[05:04] <lusepuster> ikonia, anyway, I'll give a reinstall a try
[05:04] <wols> djieno: paste your /etc/network/interfaces in a pastebing please
[05:05] <johnschroeder> sipior: okay it is not quite done just yet
[05:05] <Pici> rmd_: I dont think that Gnome can currently install more than one theme if they are compressed. If I uncompress the file then I drag each of the subfolders separately into the theme window and install them.  You can only manually change the colors of GTK themes (controls) not Metacity themes(window borders)
[05:05] <djieno> wolf,...can you join the conversation with leagris
[05:05] <Pici> rmd_: Try that and see if it works
[05:06] <_malajenho_> I've edited my proftpd.conf like this:     http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=36710
[05:06] <wols> djieno: no I won't
[05:06] <ikonia> _malajenho_: just tell us the problem
[05:06] <_malajenho_> ok
[05:06] <djieno> wolf, allright..hold on ill paste the config of /etc/network interfaces
[05:06] <leagris> djieno, do you read me on the private room?
[05:07] <_malajenho_> I can enter in my ftp server with my own pc: ftp://myip
[05:07] <ROPSS3> Okay, whenever I go to Tv-links.co.uk and try to watch scrubs (I know scrubs is in divx format) it still won't work
[05:07] <rmd_> Pici: it still acts the same.  so how do i change the colors?
[05:07] <ROPSS3> I did install the new VLC and all plugins as well.
[05:07] <_malajenho_> but when I try to enter with another pc, I can't
[05:07] <Pici> rmd_: You should have multiple entries for each colored version of the theme.
[05:07] <_malajenho_> I would be: ftp://mypublicip
[05:07] <_malajenho_> yes?
[05:07] <ikonia> _malajenho_: if you want help your going to have to give better info than that
[05:07] <Fjodor> Having some trouble with k9copy. Is there another app of similar capacities?
[05:07] <neverblue> _malajenho_, yes
[05:07] <ikonia> _malajenho_: no - your public Ip is natted
[05:07] <neverblue> but you have to open ports
[05:07] <LjL> !enter | _malajenho_
[05:07] <ubotu> _malajenho_: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:07] <leagris> _malajenho_, is your FTP server runing? Does it listen to any IP/interface/port
[05:08] <thirdy> What's the equivalent of Bloodshed's Dev-c++5 in xubuntu
[05:08] <thirdy> ?
[05:08] <rmd_> Pici: when I drag the subfolder into the theme manager, it pops up under "custom theme"
[05:08] <neverblue> _malajenho_, what FTP server are you using?
[05:08] <rmd_> Pici, it doesn't install anything
[05:08] <LjL> !code > thirdy    (thirdy, see the private message from Ubotu)
[05:08] <rmd_> it "customizes"
[05:08] <_malajenho_> proftpd
[05:08] <Pici> rmd_: I see AlTER-Blue, ALTER-Bluemac if I go to customize theme, Window border
[05:08] <mon^rch> could somebody please tell me how I can prevent a specific program from being able to access the internet?
[05:08] <neverblue> _malajenho_, takes a bit to learn that FTP server :)
[05:08] <neverblue> _malajenho_, how many systems on your LAN?
[05:08] <neverblue> that you have access to
[05:08] <_malajenho_> only 1
[05:09] <LjL> mon^rch: i think this has been discussed before and the conclusion was that you can't
[05:09] <neverblue> _malajenho_, ok, so you need to post your proftpd.conf on pastebin
[05:09] <_malajenho_> http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=36710
[05:09] <neverblue> _malajenho_, ill take a look at it
[05:09] <_malajenho_> ok
[05:09] <_malajenho_> thanks
[05:09] <Pici> rmd_: Yes...These are metacity themes, They do not include icons or window controls and as such they do not get entered as a 'theme' just an entry in the customize window.
[05:09] <_malajenho_> :)
[05:09] <rmd_> Pici: I don't.
[05:09] <neverblue> _malajenho_, you can port scan your own box, to check that port 21 (default FTP port) is open
[05:10] <_malajenho_> ok
[05:10] <thirdy> I have xfce, dat mins I can't run KDE and GNOME apps right?
[05:10] <_malajenho_> I'll do
[05:10] <mon^rch> LjL: karp you have a good memory! I was just starting to think that if Windows' firewall can do it... why not Linux's??
[05:10] <Pici> rmd_: You uncompressed the theme.tar.gz?
[05:10] <neverblue> unless you changed it... but the port scanner will tell you which service is on each port anyways..
[05:10] <johnschroeder> sipior:
[05:10] <rmd_> Pici: um, yes.
[05:10] <johnschroeder> sipior:i told it to do no configuration
[05:10] <LjL> mon^rch: i think you could possibly, however, use a program like "proxychains" (there are others as well), which are intended to trick a program into using a proxy instead of connecting to the Internet directly. if you give it no working proxy, i suppose that would mean your program won't be able to connect
[05:10] <sipior> johnschroeder: of what?
[05:10] <johnschroeder> i am not sure
[05:10] <rmd_> Pici: I see the folders, but i dont see any entries under "customize/window borders"
[05:10] <thirdy> !code>thirdy
[05:10] <johnschroeder> something asked me if i wanted to do it in of these 5 different ways
[05:11] <johnschroeder> local only no config, sateilite
[05:11] <sipior> johnschroeder: ah, the mail server configuration
[05:11] <johnschroeder> sipior: yep
[05:11] <sipior> johnschroeder: you probably want to leave that unconfigured unless you plan on sending or receiving mail on that box
[05:11] <_malajenho_> neverblue:     port 21?
[05:11] <Elko> Khrajin: thx, seems to work (though I didn't see avi there as a choice to convert the mp4)
[05:11] <djieno> wolf, # The secondairy network interface
[05:11] <djieno> auto eth1
[05:11] <djieno> iface eth1 inet static
[05:11] <djieno>         address <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:11] <djieno>         netmask <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:11] <sipior> johnschroeder: if it's just going to be a web server, you can leave it
[05:11] <johnschroeder> i did, whew that was a smart choice then
[05:11] <MuffY> My friend installed ubuntu, and he let the installer choose partitions automatically (which resulted in the death of windows). I asked him to paste his results for fdisk -l to me, and he says only a sda1, sda2 and sda5 are given. Might the windows partition be still alive at sda3 or sda4, because I don't understand why the partition enumeratoin would suddenly skip two numbers.
[05:11] <Pici> rmd_: Did you drag the folders in one at a time? Or did you select them all and drag them all in?
[05:12] <johnschroeder> sipior: good deal
[05:12] <jrib> Fjodor: I like thoggen, there's also dvdrip
[05:12] <rmd_> PIci, forget it.  this fact is that this should not be so complicated.  at the very least, the documentation should be better, or the system for installing them should be able to inform the user what's going on.  this is pathetic.
[05:12] <LjL> mon^rch: actually, "man iptables" gives this option: "--cmd-owner name     Matches if the packet was created by a process with the given command name.".    this seems like what you want
[05:12] <djieno> leagris ?
[05:12] <ikonia> MuffY: extended partitions
[05:12] <leagris> yes djieno?
[05:12] <neverblue> _malajenho_, it will show the service on that port..
[05:12] <dr_willis> MuffY,  check 'sudo fdisk -l' it will show what types of partitions are there
[05:12] <LjL> mon^rch: though it also says, "Please  note:  This  option  requires  kernel  support  that  might not be available in official Linux kernel sources [...] "
[05:12] <jrib> clever: I don't see why not, but I have not tried it
[05:12] <jintxo> I'm having problems booting with only 1 memebert of my mda raid available (it works fine with only 1 device but won't boot with only the OTHER device). I have noticed that ubuntu can't unount md0 when shutting down my system. could that have something to do?
[05:12] <johnschroeder> sipior: does this matter that linux is on this FAT32 vs. NTFS?
[05:12] <MuffY> dr_willis: that's exactly what i asked him to do. this was his output
[05:13] <thirdy> does the items in the panel in xfce significantly slows my comp?
[05:13] <OmnificienT> hey
[05:13] <sipior> johnschroeder: you've installed on a fat32 partition?
[05:13] <Fjodor> jrib: Ok, thanks
[05:13] <dr_willis> thirdy,  they shouldent.
[05:13] <rmd_> Pici, so how do i get the colors of the windows to change?  that's what i'm looking for.
[05:13] <dr_willis> thirdy,  unless your Chip on that machine is a Dorito. :)
[05:13] <thirdy> I'm having a slow machine
[05:13] <OmnificienT> are downloads supposed to go slower on Ubuntu than on winXP?
[05:13] <_malajenho_> neverblue: what do you think about my   proftpd.conf ???
[05:13] <dr_willis> thirdy,  how slow is slow.. :)
[05:13] <djieno> leagris, i m still in the private room
[05:13] <johnschroeder> yes probably so, not sure windows 98 was on there previsouly and i just installed linux over it so it probably has fat32
[05:13] <thirdy> Dorito?
[05:14] <leagris> djieno, for some reason you can't read me
[05:14] <dr_willis> thirdy,  a 'snack chip' :)
[05:14] <sipior> johnschroeder: interesting, didn't think that would work, but the installer probably wrote an ext3 over that partition
[05:14] <neverblue> _malajenho_, i dunno, you did give me the URL so I can look at it
[05:14] <djieno> ow..no.. can't

[05:15] <leagris> djieno, bring you to private chat with me
[05:15] <dr_willis> thirdy,  you may want to look into using the even lighter window managers like fluxbox, openbox, or windowmaker.
[05:15] <djieno> allright.. i ll do that
[05:15] <neverblue> thanks _malajenho_ that helps :P
[05:15] <thirdy> Maybe wen I have a job
[05:16] <thirdy> So how do I make Xubuntu faster?
[05:16] <dr_willis> thirdy,   when in doubt start cutting out extras :) I used windowmaker for years.
[05:16] <_malajenho_> :)
[05:16] <neverblue> _malajenho_, which user are you trying to login with?
[05:16] <dr_willis> thirdy,  xubuntu is very light. but it still has a few extras on the desktop.
[05:16] <jintxo> any better channels you can recommend for stware raid discussion?
[05:16] <thirdy> Or it's firefox that's making my comp slow
[05:17] <_malajenho_> I've created a new user:     juanchiftp
[05:17] <dr_willis> thirdy,  firefox does use a lot of ram.
[05:17] <leagris> djieno, may be you could use Xchat
[05:17] <dr_willis> thirdy,  could try the uber-light browsers like dilo, or lynx, or links -g
[05:17] <neverblue> _malajenho_, ok, and that user has /home/juanchiftp/ftp ?

[05:26] <codeyma1> netapplet does not shows wpa in password type
[05:26] <codeyma1> any help??
[05:27] <nico__> Hello guys
[05:27] <stephenhill> yeah
[05:27] <sap> hi, how to install HP printer in ubuntu. What is PPD file
[05:27] <Ares|Work> hello, if you put proxy details in kconsole, will apt-get use them?
[05:27] <codeyma1> uboyu tell codeyman about wpa
[05:27] <nico__> is this the ubuntu or kubuntu channel
[05:27] <Ares|Work> or is it that root has it's own connections settings?
[05:27] <thirdy> !code>thirdy
[05:27] <LjL> !wpa > codeyma1    (codeyma1, see the private message from Ubotu)
[05:27] <mkoko> sap: it is like a driver for the printer, i believe
[05:27] <neverblue> nico__, read the channel name :)
[05:27] <LjL> nico__: this is #ubuntu.
[05:27] <robdeman> folks how many files can I store in a folder on EXT3? I need to store 50.000 in 1 directpry is this possible?
[05:27] <nico__> well, thei're talking about kde software here :D
[05:28] <neverblue> !over abuse of the bot > LjL
[05:28] <sipior> robdeman: sure, only thing that matters is inode count
[05:28] <neverblue> hehe
[05:28] <stephenhill> ping :wakeup
[05:28] <nico__> anyway, did anyone manage to get a dual screen working
[05:28] <LjL> neverblue, hardly.
[05:28] <neverblue> :)
[05:28] <neverblue> atleast someone uses it
[05:28] <sipior> robdeman: and that's per filesystem, not per folder
[05:28] <burepe> if I am using a live cd but have my not working ubuntu partition mounted can I install a .deb in that now working partition somehow?
[05:28] <LjL> robdeman: i don't think ext3 has a limitation on how many files you can put in a single directory, though it has a (settable) limitation on total files
[05:28] <sap> How can I get the PPD file for HP 1020
[05:28] <neverblue> _malajenho_, u doing ok there?
[05:28] <stephenhill> ping : the ppd
[05:29] <_malajenho_> sorry, I'm looking how to open my port
[05:29] <Pici> robdeman: Take a look at the ext3 wikipedia page for exact limitations: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext3
[05:29] <neverblue> _malajenho_, you dont
[05:30] <djieno> anyone wanting to help me out a cross connection between two dapper servers?
[05:30] <wols> robdeman: go to wikipedia and look up ext3. there it tells you
[05:30] <nico__> does anyone know how to get dual screen on a laptop running feisty working?
[05:30] <LjL> !dualhead > nico__    (nico__, see the private message from Ubotu)
[05:31] <robdeman> folks: there is no known maximum for EXT3. Will 30.000 files/ per directory be something that works?
[05:31] <nico__> ok nice
[05:31] <robdeman> >> I did check Wikipedia
[05:31] <sipior> robdeman: i think you answered your own question there :)
[05:31] <neverblue> _malajenho_, you have to start the service
[05:31] <robdeman> >> no known maximum?
[05:31] <johnschroeder> sipior: it says it is rebuilding the database, that is where i am
[05:31] <nico__> hm am i correct that gnome runs much faster then KDE
[05:31] <neverblue> sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd restart
[05:31] <nico__> and A LOT faster then microsoft spyware XP
[05:31] <neverblue> _malajenho_, then port scan
[05:31] <aufdb> hey
[05:32] <neverblue> see if the port is open, then try and connect
[05:32] <sipior> robdeman: if performance is an issue, you may want to look at reiserfs, which is apparently faster with lots of small files
[05:32] <LjL> nico__: no. they're both slow. this is offtopic, anyway
[05:32] <neverblue> i have to run
[05:32] <robdeman> sipior: no Im forced to use a shared host account
[05:32] <robdeman> sipior: just stopring tons of uploaded files
[05:32] <sipior> robdeman: you should be fine, then
[05:32] <robdeman> sipior: its PHP-coding-wise so much easier to dump everything in 1 huge folder, no subfodlers
[05:32] <robdeman> sipior: im thinking of maximum 30.000 foto's
[05:33] <thirdy> K-Melon
[05:33] <thirdy> is that a good choice?
[05:33] <Dabaconboy> hey guys just a quick question, how can i get ubuntu 6.06.1 to pick up an ethernet card as i cant get onto the net with ubu
[05:34] <djieno> anyone wanting to help me with my crosscable issue?
[05:34] <SudoBash> boot ubuntu up with the ethernet already in the card
[05:34] <sipior> djieno: what's the issue?
[05:34] <nico__> hm, LjL, i just installed ubuntu, and it really is suprisingly fast
[05:34] <SudoBash> or it wont work sometimes
[05:34] <djieno> sipior, thanks...
[05:34] <Dabaconboy> sudobash: it does not pick up the actual card itself
[05:35] <SudoBash> sudo ifconfig etho up
[05:35] <djieno> sipio, i cannot ping them although secondairy interface is up
[05:35] <johnschroeder> sipior:
[05:35] <SudoBash> eth0
[05:35] <hugolp> Hi
[05:35] <hugolp> anyone here using XawTV?
[05:35] <SudoBash> sudo ifconfig eth0 up
[05:35] <sipior> djieno: what are the IPs of the two interfaces?
[05:35] <SudoBash> try that
[05:35] <djieno> and both are in the same subnet
[05:36] <gravemind> some of my permissions in a folder in my home folder are screwed up. What should I chown -R them to be?
[05:36] <djieno> <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS> both <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:36] <Dabaconboy> SudoBash: do you mean in the terminal thing
[05:36] <wols> djieno: "nwtwork" is what you need
[05:36] <sipior> djieno: and you have an entry in the routing table for the crosscable interface?
[05:36] <wols> djieno: network <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:36] <SudoBash> isnt is <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:36] <djieno> hi wols
[05:36] <wols> SudoBash: no
[05:36] <SudoBash> <IP_ADDRESS> is <IP_ADDRESS> i think
[05:36] <djieno> no, sipios that could be it
[05:37] <wols> SudoBash: you don't need to. <IP_ADDRESS> is fine
[05:37] <thirdy> What's the lite easy to use, few feature, fast irc client? I'm using chatzilla, and it's making my comp slow
[05:37] <SudoBash> yeah dabaconboy
[05:37] <wols> djieno: I told you what to do. that will give you the routing entry
[05:37] <wols> thirdy: irssi
[05:37] <djieno> wols, ill go and fetch ;)
[05:37] <LjL> gravemind: chown -R youruser:youruser ~/
[05:37] <thirdy> what's the terminal command?
[05:37] <thirdy> I'm using xubuntu
[05:37] <X-Ception> Anyone know of a good site for printer drivers for ubuntu?
[05:37] <SudoBash> thirdy
[05:38] <SudoBash> sudo apt-get install bitchx
[05:38] <LjL> thirdy: suprisingly, it's "irssi"
[05:38] <gravemind> LjL: thanks. Should I chmod them as well?
[05:38] <SudoBash> that the best light weight irc client
[05:38] <SudoBash> BitchX
[05:38] <wols> djieno: nothing to fetch. only to type in
[05:38] <djieno> i wrote nwtwork
[05:38] <thirdy> bitchx or irssi?
[05:38] <wols> djieno: network
[05:38] <Pici> thirdy: Try them both
[05:38] <djieno> and network nothing reply
[05:38] <LjL> gravemind: no, unless they're seriously messed up. but you can't just chmod them all with a single command, as permissions are *supposed* to be different depending on the file.
[05:38] <Pici> !best
[05:39] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[05:39] <SudoBash> iwI like bitchx
[05:39] <wols> thirdy: bitchx hasn't been developed in ages
[05:39] <thirdy> ok i'll try bitchx
[05:39] <SudoBash> Bitchx has been around a while

[05:40] <Ares|Work> hello, if you put proxy details in kconsole, will apt-get use them?
[05:40] <Ares|Work> or is it that root has it's own connections settings?
[05:40] <Tru7h> I have a bit of a complex problem. Long story short, I was trying to make some partitions to install Ubuntu on. About halfway through it gave me an error and said something along the lines of needing to restart or Ubuntu wouldn't recognize.. something. I restarted and discovered when I tried to boot Windows it gave me an error saying "0 Active Partitions, F1 to retry boot, F2 for setup." So I went into Ubuntu and started up the GNOME Partit
[05:40] <Ares|Work> or something else?
[05:40] <cntb> anyone knows how to mess with bcdedit in Vista to bring boot.ini back and use it to point to grub on boot partition ?
[05:41] <Ares|Work> cntb can that be done?
[05:41] <Danzor> Hey, I need some help. Xserver doesn't start because I have an X1400 graphics card. I've been following the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI for "7.04 (Feisty)"
[05:41] <Ares|Work> i doubt it can
[05:41] <Danzor> The next step is to "Open the restricted drivers manager included in 7.04 "System -> Administration -> Restricted Drivers Manager" and select "ATI accelerated graphics driver". This will hopefully enable fglrx in a painless way."
[05:41] <SudoBash> you probably messed up your partiton tables
[05:41] <Pici> cntb: If its an application in vista, try asking in ##windows, otherwise see !grub
[05:41] <wols> Ares|Work: put it in /etc/apt/conf.d or use th env variable HTTP_PROXY
[05:41] <Brandon420^> Tru: you have to different computers right
[05:41] <Ares|Work> go into linux and reinstal the bootloader
[05:41] <Danzor> However, I can't do that because I don't have GUI
[05:41] <cntb> pici tyvm
[05:41] <Danzor> I'm working on the command-line
[05:41] <Ares|Work> i have no ida hoe though
[05:41] <SudoBash> you can edit boot ini with msconfig
[05:41] <gravemind> LjL: ok. They were messed up in the first place because I'm copying them from my mac's external drive, where the permissions were all different.
[05:41] <SudoBash> there is another way to edit it also
[05:41] <{DB}HobbitJa> Anyone know how i can transfer "info.txt" to my local pc via a telnet session?
[05:41] <cntb> Ares|Work,  I guess yes
[05:42] <djieno> wols, can you see me in private room ?
[05:42] <Ares|Work> wols: how do i use the end variable?
[05:42] <LjL> gravemind: well, afraid you'll have to go through them one by one. but it would probably be safe enough to remove rwx from "others" (i.e. not root and not your user) for all files, and set "rw" for your user
[05:42] <wols> djieno: no. paste your /etc/network/interfaces
[05:42] <Ares|Work> wols: is there a set command like in windows?
[05:42] <wols> !pm | djieno
[05:42] <ubotu> djieno: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[05:42] <cntb> i am on time pressure to deliver an Dual BOOT , and know new vista manager can respect old boot.ini which is good enough for grub pointer
[05:43] <wols> Ares|Work: env variable = environment variable
[05:43] <djieno> ubuto, sorry..first time on irc... seems a bit confusing
[05:43] <wols> cntb: for windows question this channel is the wrong one
[05:43] <Ares|Work> *env
[05:43] <wols> cntb: we can only help with ubuntu questions
[05:43] <wols> djieno: ubotu is a bot
[05:44] <wols> Ares|Work: "export HTTP_PROXY=...."
[05:44] <djieno> wols, hehe..bot ...autoreply i guess
[05:44] <SudoBash> lol
[05:44] <wols> Ares|Work: and "env" to check

[05:50] <PriceChild> dredhammer, doesn't it offer codecs to install?

[05:57] <brimiles> sorry complete linux newb here.... can you use any windows apps on linux?  i'm only really worried about yahoo music engine for my music
[05:57] <PriceChild> !netsplit
[05:57] <LjL> !netsplit
[05:57] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[05:57] <dredhammer> ok greyfrog
[05:57] <piedoggie> expect is a tool for injecting keystrokes and gathering  responses
[05:57] <greyfrog> dredhammer: or libtheora-bin... if you can't tell, I'm grasping at strwas here ;P
[05:57] <piedoggie> you can associate action with the responses
[05:58] <djieno> wols, you're still here?
[05:58] <tavl_> anyone has a guess my ubuntu is accessing many https pages except those from Last.fm? =S
[05:58] <piedoggie> http://expect.nist.gov/
[05:58] <piedoggie> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expect
[05:58] <dredhammer> ok this is weird now it plays ogg audio but not ogm files
[05:59] <piedoggie> elYase: does that help?
[05:59] <brimiles> so would anyone have any idea how i could run yahoo music engine on ubuntu?
[05:59] <dyrne> brimiles: you can use wine to run some apps not sure about your yahoo thing. try searching winehq.com  for your app and see what others are running into
[05:59] <dr_willis> brimiles,  im not even sure many of us know what yahoomusic engine is.
[06:00] <wols_> djieno: yes. netsplit. freenode server timed out. I already told you what you have to do
[06:00] <stefg> tavl_: just checked... last.fm seems to be down
[06:00] <dyrne> brimiles: what does it do? maybe we can suggest an alternate application
[06:00] <brimiles> ok, it's like an itunes type thing for legally listening to music on a monthly subscription... i'll look into it on that site
[06:00] <Azhi_Dahaka> i tried the alsa page but i can't find my audio card
[06:00] <piedoggie> musicc rental
[06:00] <brimiles> it's a subscription service through yahoo i'm pretty sure there's no alternate apps
[06:00] <tavl_> stefg: ok, let me see too...
[06:00] <djieno> wols, sorry but i don't understand what to do, man page interfaces and google is what i looked at but im in the dark
[06:00] <piedoggie> you spend money and have nothing you can keep at t
[06:01] <piedoggie> the end of the month??
[06:01] <stefg> tavl_: if you're not logged in, you get a page, but my dashboard doesn't work either
[06:01] <gravemind> hey does anybody know why som many  people had to quit and re enter?
[06:01] <PriceChild> gravemind, server death
[06:01] <Myrtti> it was netsplit
[06:01] <wols_> gravemind: netsplit
[06:01] <gravemind> something with freenode
[06:01] <Myrtti> the connection between two servers broke
[06:01] <gravemind> ?
[06:01] <stefg> !netsplit > gravemind
[06:01] <LjL> let's keep to the topic, shall we?
[06:02] <gravemind> alright : )
[06:02] <wols_> djieno: add a line "network <IP_ADDRESS>" to your eth1 stanza
[06:02] <tavl_> stefg: have you ever tried this on your ubuntu or first time trying to get to the login/dashboard page?
[06:02] <dyrne> brimiles:  you might check out seamless desktop that basically runs xp virtually and lets you open apps in their own windows looking as if they are native. it connects to the virtual xp using rdesktop
[06:02] <dyrne> brimiles: i think
[06:02] <thirdy> nice, I'm using bitchx
[06:02] <djieno> wols, ill do that ill put in both
[06:02] <djieno> wols, server 1 and 2
[06:02] <wols_> djieno: yes. and restart your eth1 too on both
[06:02] <stefg> tavl_: i use iton a regular basis, and it works... it seems a last.fm problem atm, not yours (or mine :-) )
[06:03] <LjL> !netsplit
[06:03] <brimiles> dyrne: the app is called seamless desktop?

[06:11] <piedoggie> I should probably fess up.  I'm trying to build flash images of IP cop from my ubuntu system.  I can do it if I go to a fair amount of error-prone process with qemu
[06:11] <udusu> dyrne: I've got a laptop, I was looking on those websites but with no luck...
[06:11] <sergiu> when i try to install vlc with add/remove i got Cannot install "vlc" This applications conflicts with other installed software

[06:11] <sergiu> To install "vlc" you must remove conflicting software

[06:11] <magnetron> sergiu: what does it conflict with?
[06:11] <piedoggie> I'm trying to do it outside of qemu but unfortunately, lomount seems to have vanished and it's difficult to create loopback file images with partitions

[06:24] <djieno> wols, probably with vmware server which is running on both servers
[06:24] <LjL> sergiu: very, very weird. libsdl-image1.2 is in main, so you should most definitely have it available. (besides, don't use "sudo su" - use "sudo -i" if you really feel you have to get a root login)

[06:27] <wols_> djieno: so is there any service run on one of your 2 servers?

[06:32] <LjL> sergiu: md. not .md
[06:32] <wols_> djieno: I do
[06:32] <leagris> are there any way of building versatile UI outside of code and be working in GTK or Ncurses regardless of it launched within X or on console only?
[06:32] <LjL> sergiu: change it to se. for example
[06:32] <Yggdrasil> stefg that is all i did was disable taht service..
[06:32] <suyog>  I've got a question please. How do i make it to auto answer yes when running a command? like, do u want to replace abc.bin? [y] /[n]
[06:32] <Yggdrasil> stefg. i tried to make a new user and go in under it to see if it would reenable it, it didnt
[06:33] <sergiu> LjL: understood
[06:33] <preaction> suyog: that all depends on the command, read man <command>. sometimes it
[06:33] <djieno> wols, i guess this isn't wise to post but i feel secure enough
[06:33] <Heptofite> HEY i need to make the gsynaptics program for my synaptics touchpad work HELP please?
[06:33] <LjL> suyog: "man yes"
[06:33] <preaction> suyog: sometimes it's -y, sometimes -f
[06:33] <jhaig> suyog: There is a command called "yes" that returns a string of 'y's.  Use "yes | <your command>"
[06:33] <Yggdrasil> so whatevers on power management prefecenes has only on ac power and general
[06:33] <wols_> djieno: if this machine is reachable from the internet. your open ports are public knowledge. if it isn't on the itnernet, no one can reach you
[06:33] <suyog> thanks!! :-)
[06:33] <djieno> wols, you know where to look
[06:34] <stefg> Yggdrasil: might be something on the GUI-level, not kernel level. Luckily my old trusty Compaq notebook works just out of the box since dapper, so i had not to troubleshoot anything.
[06:34] <wols_> djieno: I asked you waht serviecs you run, you didn't answer, so you listing all open ports is the only way
[06:34] <Yggdrasil> stefg thaks then
[06:34] <Yggdrasil> its somethign on the gui for sure
[06:34] <LjL> suyog: careful with that.
[06:34] <wols_> djieno: cause right now I think iptables blocks the pings
[06:34] <Yggdrasil> because if i set an applet up there ,t he battery applet its showing ac,
[06:34] <Yggdrasil> hell i dont knwo
[06:34] <djieno> wols, you have seen the pastebin?
[06:34] <Lunar_Lamp> Is there a program to count the number of keystrokes I make?
[06:34] <suyog> LjL, yes, i will be careful. i have nothing to lose :-)
[06:34] <Yggdrasil> screw it the battery on this thing sucks bad anyway
[06:34] <gordonjcp> Blocking ICMP is bad
[06:35] <LjL> !language | Yggdrasil
[06:35] <ubotu> Yggdrasil: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:35] <oxdot> themoomin: you must locate the puppy (???) partition and indicate to grub (/boot/grub/menu.lst) where to find the boot image and the (puppy) root partition ...
[06:35] <djieno> wols, howcome in the test from my laptop to server 2 the iptables firewall wasn't making any trouble, if you follow me
[06:36] <LjL> !info xmacro | Lunar_Lamp, this could possibly be adapted for what you want.
[06:36] <EADG__> Lunar_Lamp: search Synaptic or type 'apt-cache search <search string>' in a terminal :)
[06:36] <kazim59> hello... i want to compress some project reports (text and source codes) as effeciently as possible... what compresson to use? (gotta send it over the net)
[06:36] <aib> how do I access the amount of memory used, who is using the most memory, and the amount of cpu utilization, from the command line?
[06:36] <ubotu> lunar_lamp, this could possibly be adapted for what you want.: xmacro: Record / Play keystrokes and mouse movements in X displays. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3pre-20000911-4 (feisty), package size 18 kB, installed size 96 kB
[06:36] <spacey> does someone know how to copy something to another volume but keep the hardlinks
[06:36] <djieno> wols, i could check that by enable ping respond. but i could ping both ways in my laptop test at home
[06:36] <Lunar_Lamp> EADG__, I know how to search, but nothing initially came up ;-)
[06:36] <stefg> kazim59: bz2 is most efficient for text
[06:36] <LjL> EADG__: that is useful advice.
[06:36] <wols_> djieno: that I dunno actually. but you're free to troubleshoot on your oen
[06:36] <wols_> *wn
[06:37] <kazim59> stefg: thats right.... one project had movie files too... for that?
[06:37] <djieno> wols, hehe i guess so :-)
[06:37] <stefg> kazim59: movies are precrompressed... no use in compressing them again
[06:37] <kazim59> stefg: thanks ...
[06:38] <fuffal0> if i want rc.local to run everytime the system boots up, where do i put rc.local?
[06:38] <LjL> fuffal0: in /etc
[06:38] <LjL> !boot > fuffal0    (fuffal0, see the private message from Ubotu)
[06:38] <wols_> djieno: troubleshooting over irc is hard and often incomplete. we don't have direct access to your machine (and we shouldn't). so irc isn't exactly the best medium for it in the world
[06:39] <aMMuNix> any way to set a launcher's icon size to a specific size?  [n]   what does that mean?
[06:39] <sergiu> LjL: now its works
[06:40] <fuffal0> LjL, I have rc.local in /etc/ and it's not running - could the permissions be wrong?
[06:40] <EADG__> Lunar_Lamp: I found this on a apt-cache search for "key logger"  lkl - userspace keylogger for x86 architecture
[06:40] <wols_> never ever let strangers from irc on your box at all. ever
[06:40] <LjL> sergiu, you can *probably* (i'm not entirely sure) put the md. back now.
[06:40] <udusu> can someone help me to find out the problem with my toshiba L30 - 113 laptop. I don't have sound, even though I have the volume 100%.
[06:40] <RedACE> don't listen to wols_
[06:40] <Lunar_Lamp> EADG__, yeah, i guess I could use that, though I don't really want to log the keys pressed.
[06:40] <RedACE> give me access
[06:40] <LjL> oh yes, i forgot about lkl
[06:40] <RedACE> ;)
[06:40] <sergiu> LjL: i renamed .md with .us
[06:40] <stefg> sound | udusu
[06:41] <stefg> !sound > udusu
[06:41] <sergiu> LjL: to put the md. back?
[06:41] <djieno> wols, eeehm why not? I can offert you this, and see what you type to my server through ssh, or did you mean it like it is not safe to let somebody do that ?
[06:41] <suyog> Please help. I'm trying to apply a patch to the kernel, and it keeps on asking Assume -R? [n]   what does that mean?
[06:41] <LjL> sergiu: if you want
[06:41] <nico__> hello
[06:41] <EADG__> Lunar_Lamp: Maybe you could pass the log file through cat to get a word/charecter count.
[06:41] <sergiu> LjL: but i can download vlc now
[06:41] <nico__> how do i get the compiz thing working
[06:41] <Lunar_Lamp> EADG__, yeah, exactly what I was thinking :-)
[06:41] <gravemind> hey, I configured lm_sensors like how it says here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2780, but all the sensors command gives me is the temperature of the CPU
[06:41] <gravemind> how can I get more sensors?
[06:42] <LjL> sergiu: yes, i'm just saying that i *think* using md. will now work, too, and if it is faster for you, you can try putting it back
[06:42] <ipx> How can I make my user own a folder?
[06:42] <stefg> suyog: man patch
[06:42] <jrib> ipx: chown
[06:42] <suyog> :-)
[06:42] <djieno> wols, i can see what you type, if i don't like it i ll kick you out. quite simple
[06:42] <oxdot> ... nobody with some compact flash hardware knowledge (pcmcia) (audiovox modem) ?
[06:42] <sergiu> LjL: will not work... i'm not very sure
[06:42] <aMMuNix> any way to set a launcher's icon size to a specific size? I mean without using the little resizing squares
[06:43] <elYase>  if i do ssh user@hostname ls | grep ... the command grep is run locally or in the ssh serve?
[06:43] <sergiu> becouse few minutes ago the md. was not warking possible now too
[06:43] <djieno> wols, a person could only have reading capabilities nothing to worry about
[06:43] <stefg> elYase: on the server
[06:43] <gravemind> ipx: chown -R youruser:youruser /directory. the -R will make you own everyhing inside the folder too
[06:43] <LjL> Lunar_Lamp, EADG__: however it doesn't seem like lkl can output to stdout, as far as i can see. xmacro can though
[06:43] <LjL> xmacro won't log non-X keystrokes of course, on the other hand
[06:43] <Lunar_Lamp> LjL, I'll have a look :-)
[06:44] <gravemind> elYase: if you did that you'd have two commands on one line
[06:44] <EightEleven> oxdot: compact flash and pcmcia are different techniques afaik.
[06:44] <fuffal0> so if i have a /etc/rc.local file and it's not running at startup - what am i doing wrong?  The only thing I can think of are permissions but it's green when i do an ls, so I assume those are ok
[06:44] <EightEleven> What are you trying to do?
[06:44] <cox377> is there a terminal based app that would show things like CPU heat / fan speeds etc?
[06:44] <stefg> fuffal0: is it executable  (chmod +x) ?
[06:44] <ipx> gravemind: worked! thanks alot!
[06:44] <LjL> fuffal0: do you have a /etc/init.d/rc.local file?
[06:45] <oxdot> EightEleven: in fact they differ in connectic, but not really in technic ...
[06:45] <Intertricity> How do I make it so that I can double click on a bash script on my desktop to run it?
[06:45] <gravemind> ipx: cool!
[06:45] <jrib> Intertricity: make it executable
[06:45] <Intertricity> I did
[06:45] <fuffal0> LjL - no i do not have a /etc/init.d/rc.local
[06:45] <yrlnry> Is there some web site that collects reports of people who try to get linux running on various hardware so that I can get a sense of "well, if you own a Sony Wuggo T-35 you won't have any trouble, but if you get the Compaq SmartSlice 5300 you will be in for a world of hurt because the video chip is not supported."  ??
[06:45] <Intertricity> chmod 755 right?
[06:45] <elYase> stefg, gravemind fuck they gave another answer on other places
[06:45] <jrib> Intertricity: that should work, now when you double click it should ask you if you want to run it
[06:45] <LjL> !language | elYase
[06:45] <zabin> Are there any linux programs that let me extract or burn .uif files?
[06:45] <fuffal0> stefg - to make them executable can't i chmod them to 644?
[06:45] <ubotu> elYase: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:46] <sergiu> LjL: i don't want to change md. back couz .us is working fine and there is not changes in speed
[06:46] <sergiu> ;)
[06:46] <Intertricity> jrib: Yeah.. it says its executable.. but it still opens with a text editor.
[06:46] <stefg> !hardware | yrlnry
[06:46] <ubotu> yrlnry: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport

[06:46] <djieno> wols, gone fishing ? or not wanting to continue ?
[06:46] <moquist> I'm trying to PXE boot with a NFS root rsynced off a running Feisty LiveCD. I can't seem to get the NFS root mounted properly; I have these kernel parameters: "append vga=normal initrd=initrd boot=casper netboot=nfs nfsroot=<IP_ADDRESS>:/opt/ltsp/edubuntu-desktop". Any advice, anyone?
[06:46] <EightEleven> oxdot: I thought the Compact Flash was similar to IDE/ATA
[06:46] <fuffal0> LjL - is that going to overwrite any of my files?
[06:46] <aMMuNix> any way to set a launcher's icon size to a specific size? I mean without using the little resizing squares
[06:46] <LjL> fuffal0: it really shouldn
[06:47] <LjL> fuffal0: or at the very least, it will ask you before doing it
[06:47] <stefg> fuffal0: yeah, but a simply sudo chmd +x /etc/init.d/rc.local will do it as well
[06:47] <wols_> I still wait for answers
[06:47] <Danzor> I'm trying to configure a wireless network on Ubuntu, and the help files tell me to go to "Places -> Network Servers"
[06:47] <gravemind> elYase: what's the problem?
[06:47] <zabin> Are there any linux programs that let me extract or burn .uif files?
[06:47] <Danzor> But there is no "Network Servers" option under that menu
[06:47] <yurimxpxman> I just installed apache and php, but the web browser wants to download the PHP file instead of view it. What's up with tis?

[06:48] <LjL> !hi
[06:48] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:48] <stefg> LjL: oh.... then /that/ 's probably the reason it is not executed :-)
[06:49] <gravemind> Heptofite: did you try searching the forum?
[06:49] <LjL> stefg: it's two different files
[06:49] <wols_> 18:27 < wols_> djieno: so is there any service run on one of your 2 servers?
[06:49] <sheilajr> jgfjhor
[06:49] <sheilajr> mmmhjjt
[06:49] <LjL> stefg: there is /etc/rc.local which is the user-editable file, and /etc/init.d/rc.local which is the init script that calls it
[06:49] <Heptofite> gravemind, im on 56k, it would take ages, also, i just need to know where i need to modify the x config
[06:50] <stefg> LjL: thx for the education, never messed really with that
[06:50] <deitarion> Does anyone know of a set of 1.3-series Audacious Media Player .debs I could install on my brother's machine? (I run Gentoo) 1.2 is end-of-lifed by the upstream devs. (Ironically, 1.3 was released less than a week after the Feisty freeze)
[06:50] <navets> hey how come I cant watch videos off nba.com? i have flash player installed...
[06:50] <jrib> Intertricity: that works fine here, what does this command return:  file ~/Desktop/name_of_your_script.sh && ls -l ~/Desktop/name_of_your_script.sh
[06:50] <djieno> wols, did you see the output of  netstat -anp | grep LIST in the pastebin earlier?
[06:50] <gravemind> Heptofite: if I remember right, searching the internet on 56k doesn't take too long. you'll probably have better luck searching there than asking in here, where probably very few people have heard of the program you're trying to use
[06:51] <oxdot> EightEleven: pcmcia/ata ...
[06:51] <Heptofite> gravemind, its a synaptics touchpad utility, everybody with a laptop should have at least HEARD of it
[06:51] <wols_> djieno: no
[06:51] <gravemind> Heptofite: oh, by the way, did you order that feisty cd?
[06:51] <Heptofite> gravemind, no, i downloaded it at work
[06:51] <wols_> you are not identified to services so you cannot /msg on this network
[06:52] <djieno> i ll post them again and provide the link allright ?
[06:52] <wols_> sure
[06:52] <gravemind> Heptofite: : )
[06:52] <navets> what plugin is  (video
[06:52] <wols_> but either identifiy to services or do it in channel
[06:52] <zabin> Are there any linux programs that let me extract or burn .uif files?
[06:52] <gravemind> Heptofite: I'll search for you
[06:52] <navets> what plugin is  (video/x-ms-asf)
[06:52] <wols_> navets: w32codecs. possibly mplayer can watch it out of the box

[06:53] <jrib> Intertricity: try pressinf F5 on your desktop first (not sure if this works)
[06:53] <gravemind> Heptofite: you said you need to know how to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, right?
[06:54] <Intertricity> jrib: how?
[06:54] <Intertricity> Ohhh ok
[06:54] <jrib> Intertricity: killall nautilus
[06:54] <wols_> djieno: telnet <server ip> 139
[06:54] <chombee> Anybody know of a way to get better Alt-Tab for GNOME? I'm thinking of something a bit fancier, like Mac OS X alt-tab
[06:54] <Intertricity> jrib ok brb
[06:54] <oxdot> EightEleven: ... http://www.compactflash.org/faqs/faq.htm ... but im not going further on this for now ...
[06:54] <EADG__> zabin: looks like uif files are propriatary to MagicISO... have you looked to see if they offer a Linux version?
[06:54] <wols_> djieno: does it connect? if not: what is the message you get?
[06:54] <djieno> wols, ill try now
[06:54] <Heptofite> gravemind, apparently i also need to install a synaptics driver\
[06:54] <wols_> djieno: also the output of iptables -L would be nice
[06:55] <EightEleven> oxdot: thanks, learning new things every day.
[06:55] <deye> hello all
[06:55] <Intertricity> jrib: ah well, I'm fine typing in the terminal anyway, thanks =)
[06:55] <fuffal0> alright I still can't get rc.local to run on startup... it's placed in /etc  (not /etc/init.d), it's permissions are set to executable ... any other ideas?
[06:55] <deye> i installed crossover why does it not show in the menus ?
[06:55] <Intertricity> jrib: It wasn't for anything too crucial.
[06:55] <wols_> deye: ask whoever made he crossover package. not us
[06:55] <oxdot> EightEleven: ... please ;)
[06:55] <gravemind> Heptofite: hmm. open up xorg.conf and see if you can find anything that looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23621/
[06:56] <jrib> Intertricity: for what you are doing, it is probably easier to create a launcher
[06:56] <djieno> wols, telnet doesn't work, since it is insecure, only ssh
[06:56] <wols_> djieno: it does work
[06:56] <wols_> for what I want it
[06:56] <djieno> wols, not i prevent the port with iptables
[06:56] <gravemind> Heptofite: it looks like all versions of ubuntu after 6.06 install the synaptics driver automatically
[06:56] <Heptofite> gravemind, yeah, my system doesn't realize its a touchpad, how can i configure for that?
[06:56] <wols_> djieno: you prevent port 139 with iptables?
[06:56] <wols_> if so: try port 80
[06:57] <wols_> cause if you block that too. your webserver will be very useless
[06:57] <deye> wols_ sorry for wasting your time .. why did u even waste a couple of you precious seconds pasting a reply
[06:57] <gravemind> Heptofite: short answer: I don't know. I don't even have a laptop. But could you pastebin your xorg.conf ?
[06:57] <Intertricity> jrib a launcher?
[06:57] <djieno> wols, i open only the needed ports in iptables, telnet no
[06:58] <aMMuNix> any program can open archives (rars,zips) like winrar does in windows, using drag and drop from the archive program to nautilus\desktop
[06:58] <aMMuNix> question mark
[06:58] <wols_> deye: cause you asked something here that is OT. plus I gave you an answer. crossover is not in ubuntu, so we cannit support it here. ask codeweavers. they are the only ones who support crossover
[06:58] <Heptofite> i'll see what i can do
[06:58] <jrib> Intertricity: right click on your panel, add to panel, custom application launcher, fill in the details, copy it to your desktop
[06:58] <wols_> djieno: telnet has no ports. it's a client. in.telnetd does have a port (23) but of course it's not open since no in.telnetd runs!
[06:59] <hilltopper> hello all, i was wondering if someone could help a newbie with an nvidia driver issue?
[06:59] <deye> wols ,,, a lot of people purchase cx .. so seeing there r 1000+ ppl here maybe someone will be running it
[06:59] <wols_> djieno: which is why I asked you to connect to port 139 with  telnet. if that is closed too to the outside, I asked you to use port 80. cuase that really shouldn't be closed
[06:59] <Heptofite> whats the command for to reconfigure x?
