[17:30] <John_Doe> sudo ndiswrapper -i ./net5211.inf
[17:31] <bazhang> John_Doe, and it says driver loaded, device present?
[17:31] <zetheroo> bazhang: well... like I said .. I will be googling something and then right-click on a link to perform "Open in new tab" ... but instead of the right-click menu opening I will get all kinds of other things happening ...

[17:40] <rampageoberon> Hi, can someone help me on how to use apport to automatically report bugs? I changed the setting in /etc/default/apport to 1 but not sure what to do now.
[17:42] <marcelo> bazhang, any idea?
[17:42] <zetheroo> bazhang: any ideas why this is happening?
[17:43] <bastid_raZor> alilo; check this place :: http://www.tkarena.com/forums/linux-arena/37669-unichrome-pro-igp-drivers-ubuntu-8-04-a.html
[17:44] <bazhang> marcelo, not sure as I have never played that game; is this only with galaga? you may wish to file a bug report if it is.
[17:44] <verynew> is it possible to change permanently language for a single program?
[17:45] <bigjoe4> How do I dissable memory test in Ubuntu?
[17:45] <bazhang> zetheroo, what extensions do you have for ff; are you running compiz, how many flash tabs open, how much ram; those are some questions you need to provide answers for
[17:45] <marcelo> bazhang: I will try other games too.
[17:45] <RussianPhysicsGu> Hi, when I started Ubuntu today, it had reverted to all the default settings present immediately at install. Is there a way to get my settings back, and find out why it did this? Thanks.
[17:45] <hateball> verynew: Check the launch options, sometimes you can specify which language you want. Then just adjust the launcher accordingly
[17:46] <zetheroo> bazhang: I have almost no extensions installed .. sometimes no tabs open ... 2 GB of RAM ...
[17:46] <zetheroo> bazhang: I think its more of a FF glitch ... no?
[17:46] <Vooloo> how do I know if compiz works?
[17:46] <verynew> launch options, where? (i'm thinking about inkscape)
[17:46] <bazhang> zetheroo, hard to say; not heard of this randomness-->is compiz on
[17:47] <zetheroo> bazhang: yes compiz is always on ...
[17:47] <bastid_raZor> Vooloo; system>preferences>appearance either the 2nd or 3rd tab is checked
[17:47] <zetheroo> bazhang: but in Gutsy there was no issue with this
[17:47] <bazhang> zetheroo, how many plugins for that
[17:47] <rampageoberon> Hi, anyone able to guide me doing a bug report using apport?
[17:47] <zetheroo> bazhang: plugins for compiz?
[17:47] <bazhang> yes
[17:48] <RageMachine> if I have gnome-panel disabled (thus no alt-f2) how can i start a console?

[17:48] <amikrop> Hello. I use Ubuntu. Will I have any problems if I get an iPhone (does it require iTunes, or something)?
[17:48] <bastid_raZor> rampageoberon; check here :: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Apport
[17:48] <f190> i am having trouble connecting using wireless. the wireless car shows up on network manager, but even when i input my router information, the LED on the card stays red, and i cannot connect. any ideas?
[17:48] <bazhang> amikrop, currently does not work directly with ubuntu
[17:48] <zetheroo> bazhang: ummm.... a fair few ... the same amount that I had active in Gutsy
[17:49] <soundray> amikrop: why don't you go and get your hands cuffed on the same occasion?
[17:49] <Vooloo> amikrop: yeah need itunes for basically everything
[17:49] <amikrop> soundray: Excuse me?
[17:49] <rampageoberon> bastid_raZor: I've already looked on there but its not very helpful. I'm using cli to run my application (running as another)
[17:49] <bigjoe4> hi, how do I disable memtest86 in ubuntu?
[17:49] <bazhang> zetheroo, disable them one by one and see which one is causing this, or disable compiz completely
[17:49] <soundray> amikrop: seriously, if you like the freedom that Ubuntu gives, you won't be happy with what the iPhone does for you.
[17:49] <amikrop> Vooloo: So, what can I do?
[17:49] <amikrop> soundray: oh
[17:49] <marcelo> bazhang: I finished my browser session and the sounds came back when i started a new session to xgalaga!
[17:49] <slayton> bigjoe4, what do you mean by disable?
[17:49] <zetheroo> bazhang: disabling them one by one would not really help since the problem is really random
[17:49] <Vooloo> amikrop: VMware with windows XP and itunes maybe :D

[17:50] <goo> Hello. I come from OSX, where we have the great blogging app Ecto. In Linux, I have discovered blogtk and drivel, but none of them have the ability to automatically upload images in my blog posts from the local hard drive like Ecto does. Any suggestions for other blogging software included in Ubuntu?
[17:50] <amikrop> bazhang: Will that change? Can I do something?
[17:50] <slayton> bigjoe4, do you want to remove it from the grub menu?
[17:50] <bazhang> marcelo, so youtube and galaga both want to claim the same sound device
[17:50] <bigjoe4> slayton: it came up automatically
[17:50] <zetheroo> bazhang: and why would this not be an issue in Gutsy with FF 2?
[17:50] <amikrop> Vooloo: Oh. What about wine?
[17:50] <bazhang> zetheroo, you are on gutsy with ff2?
[17:50] <soulc> ha ha ha
[17:50] <Vooloo> amikrop: maybe
[17:50] <bigjoe4> slayton: it has put itself as the default at start up
[17:50] <Vooloo> amikrop: I didnt try
[17:51] <zetheroo> bazhang: no.... but in Gusty with FF2 this issue was unknown to me
[17:51] <soulc> what is the best poll to take?
[17:51] <amikrop> Vooloo: OK
[17:51] <bazhang> goo, blogfire for ff (plugin ) may do that
[17:51] <slayton> bigjoe4, can you get to your grub boot menu?
[17:51] <amikrop> soundray: I see.
[17:51] <bigjoe4> Yes
[17:51] <bazhang> zetheroo, then you are on hardy with ff3?
[17:51] <zetheroo> bazhang: yes
[17:51] <rampageoberon> bastid_raZor: is there anything simple that i'm missing?
[17:51] <slayton> bigjoe4, can you select ubuntu from that menu?
[17:51] <bigjoe4> slayton: yes
[17:51] <bazhang> zetheroo, so what gutsy can or cannot do is irrelevant, correct?
[17:52] <bigjoe4> slayton: but I don;t want memtest to be the default
[17:52] <adamcube> Hey all! How can I scan for bluetooth devices in Ubuntu 8.04? My dongle is already configured and working properly.
[17:52] <slayton> bigjoe4, right... i get that gimme a second
[17:52] <bigjoe4> slayton: thanks
[17:52] <D3RGPS31> how can i installed the packages gnome-session and ubuntu-desktop without having to install their extra packages?
[17:52] <goo> bazhang: aha, great tip. I have been using Safari for so long I have forgotten all about FF and it's plugins.. :)
[17:53] <bazhang> goo nice :)
[17:53] <Bear10> How do I open a new session / window in the command prompt?
[17:53] <GleepGlop> Bear10: ctrl+alt+n
[17:53] <zetheroo> bazhang: well ... why would Gutsy work fine with FF2 and compiz and all the same things I have working now .... but Hardy with FF3 is giving me this annoying glitch? ... thats why I brought up Gutsy and FF2 ...
[17:53] <RageMachine> I've got a question. On boot, i have it set to log me in automatically. I get the nvidia splash, then the colour blue (xubuntu was installed last), then my desktop. how do i change this colour?
[17:53] <bazhang> zetheroo, no idea.
[17:53] <Bear10> GeepGlop: well i mean on the server edition, not the gui
[17:54] <zetheroo> bazhang: ok ... I just thought maybe there was a fix known or something ... thanks
[17:54] <GleepGlop> crtl+alt+F1 or F2
[17:54] <sharperguy> how to i blacklist/unload certain kernel modules?
[17:54] <maybeway36> Bear10: try Alt-F1 through Alt-F6
[17:54] <meoblast001> how do you create aliases in ircd-hybrid?
[17:54] <bastid_raZor> rampageoberon; from that page i'm seeing what you're seeing. it only has 4 cli commands
[17:54] <slayton> bigjoe4, at the top of /boot/grub/menu.lst is a field that is default then a number... that number corresponds to the entry that will boot by default....   when you scroll to the bottom of menu.lst you will see 3+ menu entires that all loook very similar... select the one you want, count its position starting with 0 and place that number as the default number at the top of the file
[17:54] <soundray> !blacklist | sharperguy
[17:54] <darthbator> did anyone else happen to have an update sometime yesterday perhaps that broke libxine mp3 support. I noticed that an update removed libxine-ffmpeg from my system. I seem to be unable to install the libxine1-ffmpeg package becasue of the following dependency error....

[17:54] <Nelson_Apart> anyway to display a slash picture at grub?
[17:54] <Starnestommy> meoblast001: I don't think hybrid has an alias mechanism
[17:54] <Vooloo> I remember when I installed linux like 5 years ago, you had to calculate RAM to create your swap... do you still have to do this or will ubuntu handle that for me?
[17:54] <meoblast001> Starnestommy: O_o
[17:55] <D3RGPS31> How can I install Ubuntu-Desktop & Gnome-Session without installing the extras?
[17:55] <meoblast001> Starnestommy: your joking right?
[17:55] <wishie> what is the cleanest way to make my bash script run on startup, and stop at shutdown ? using /etc/init.d/ ?

[17:55] <rbby2> when trying to mount a hard disk I get unable to create io-slave unknown protocol ".
[17:55] <maybeway36> D3RGPS31: look into gnome-core and ubuntu-artwork
[17:55] <bigjoe4> slayton: Thanks, I will do that now
[17:55] <Starnestommy> meoblast001: as far as I know, it doesn't.  I haven't used it for a while, so I'm not entirely sure
[17:55] <rampageoberon> bastid_raZor: from what it says it should invoke automatically but i can't see it doing so :(
[17:55] <slayton> ok good lcuk
[17:55] <sharperguy> soundray, but how do i unload them without rebooting
[17:55] <slayton> luck
[17:56] <Nelson_Apart> any ubuntu tutorial website?
[17:56] <soundray> sharperguy: 'sudo rmmod modulename' or 'sudo modprobe -r modulename'
[17:56] <bigjoe4> slayton: it won't let me save the file
[17:56] <sharperguy> soundray, thanks, finally killed that stupid laptop beep noise

[17:58] <bazhang> Nelson_Apart, also see ubuntugeek
[17:58] <maybeway36> ForTiLLiaN: can you give it 666 permissions? Not really secure tohugh
[17:58] <soundray> RageMachine: I think that colour is set in /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default
[17:58] <maybeway36> or +w

[18:04] <darthbator> I can't seem to get libxine1-ffmpeg to install after doing a dist upgrade and now amarok can't play mp3's :( Here is the error message that I am getting http://paste.ubuntu.com/35138/
[18:04] <maybeway36> If it's unmounted, then find its /dev/sdxx
[18:04] <maybeway36> e.g. /dev/sdb1
[18:04] <maybeway36> make sure it's the right one first, then mkdosfs on it
[18:05] <maybeway36> its dangerous if you mess up, i did once but that's just because of my fault
[18:05] <GleepGlop> assuming USB is mounted  as sda  sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1
[18:05] <michi> hi
[18:05] <michi> my tablet isn't working
[18:05] <michi> is a x61t
[18:05] <sh4d3-0090> bummer
[18:05] <sh4d3-0090> whats wrong with it
[18:05] <anirudh0> darthbator, check which repo libxine1-bin is from
[18:05] <michi> I did already the config in xorg
[18:05] <phantomcircuit> I have three partitions, swap root and a ntfs partition, how can I take space fromt he ntfs partition and increase the size of the root partition?
[18:06] <GleepGlop> Miesco: you can always use gparted or qtparted to format
[18:06] <maybeway36> phantomcircut: GParted all the way
[18:06] <maybeway36> form a live cd
[18:06] <michi> in the log I get  ttyS0: LSR safety check engaged!
[18:06] <sh4d3-0090> odd
[18:06] <sh4d3-0090> sry dunno
[18:07] <Miesco> Theres 20 gigs used on this device and there is nothing there
[18:08] <bastid_raZor> Miesco; used or not seen? i have a 320G drive that reads as 290G.. that is normal
[18:08] <edmoore__> would anyone be able to help me set up software raid1 and lvm on my server install?
[18:08] <Miesco> bastid_raZor: I dont know
[18:08] <Miesco> Why do I want a msdos filesystem?
[18:09] <Grobvok> How could that be normal?
[18:09] <RageMachine> Miesco: are you sure its not just the conversion factor? is there something you actually put there? where did you get the numbers for how much storage the drive has?
[18:09] <bastid_raZor> Grobvok; every drive i've ever bought doesn't show up as exact. some with a wide gap some with not so much
[18:10] <Miesco> rage: nautalis
[18:10] <bazhang> indeed it is normal; and a ##hardware question
[18:10] <RageMachine> bastid_raZor: thats the conversion factor. my 1tb drive is actually 931
[18:10] <Miesco> How come it mounts my usb drive to 2 places when I plug it in
[18:10] <Grobvok> Hmm...
[18:10] <RageMachine> Miesco: where does it mount them?
[18:11] <pussy16> kghus
[18:11] <Grobvok> Some people count 1 MB = 1000 KB and some 1 MB = 1024 KB
[18:11] <pussy16> hallo
[18:11] <Miesco> RageMachine: Well one place now
[18:11] <RageMachine> Grobvok, thats what I am saying its the conversion. the latter is computer, the former is usually what you find on the box
[18:11] <pussy16> was geht ab?
[18:11] <slayton> OS's and Users count 1MB = 1024 kb.... suppliers and OEMS count 1MB = 1000 KB   its totally a numbers game
[18:11] <slayton> There have actually been lawsuits over it
[18:11] <bazhang> !de
[18:11] <bucky1_> can someone send me or pastebin a sources.list file .. i screwed mine up. (hardy 32bit)
[18:11] <bazhang> pussy16, ^^
[18:12] <bazhang> bucky1_, hang on
[18:12] <bastid_raZor> RageMachine; exactly
[18:12] <RageMachine> slayton, miesco, grobvok, yep, hence my 1tb drive is really only 931gb
[18:12] <slayton> essentially OEMS want to say drives are bigger then they really are so they use a stupid convention
[18:12] <slayton> RageMachine, Correct
[18:12] <bazhang> http://aphroneo.net/sources.list bucky1_
[18:12] <slayton> RageMachine, plus some file formats reserve some area so you can't use it.... depending on how the drive is formated you may get more or less space
[18:12] <bucky1_> bazhang: thank you very much
[18:12] <bazhang> np
[18:12] <RageMachine> slayton, yea there is always the format overhead
[18:12] <Vooloo> what is the default root password? it didn't prompt me for it
[18:13] <Miesco> I cant use my external hd
[18:13] <bazhang> Vooloo, on the livecd?
[18:13] <RageMachine> Miesco is it usb/firewire/ or esata?
[18:13] <Miesco> usb
[18:13] <Vooloo> bazhang: no I just installed
[18:13] <RageMachine> did you mount it?
[18:13] <rkpisanu> how to convert .sub suntitles in .srt subtitles in ubuntu ?
[18:13] <slayton> RageMachine, the conversion is off by roughly 7%... if you look on the box your drive came it it will probably say that 1gb = 1,000,000,000 bytes
[18:13] <bazhang> Vooloo, there is none, use sudo
[18:13] <slayton> which is wrong
[18:13] <Scorp_> Vooloo: there's no root password... the only password is ur first id's password
[18:13] <Miesco> RageMachine: What filesystem should my usb hd be?
[18:13] <f190> ah great, i followed some stupid tutorial for the wireless, and i think i screwed stuff up. any way to undo this: http://knowledge76.com/index.php/Wireless_LED_on_Ubuntu ?
[18:13] <RageMachine> slayton, yea i know, lol.
[18:13] <slayton> ok sorry
[18:13] <bazhang> guys please take hardware chat elsewhere
[18:13] <RageMachine> Miesco do you have data on it right now?
[18:14] <Vooloo> bazhang: ugh
[18:14] <Miesco> RageMachine: No, im changing the partition
[18:14] <RageMachine> Miesco, might as well go with ext3 then
[18:14] <Softdel> Hi guys, question... I have seen someone using Pidgin to send a command to a linux server, and receive the contents of that command back, such as "uptime" anyone know what that app i?
[18:14] <soundray> RageMachine: did you get my earlier reply?
[18:14] <Softdel> is*
[18:14] <Sylphid|work> how do i uninstall OSS?
[18:14] <RageMachine> soundray, nope >..>
[18:14] <phantomcircuit> im having trouble installing virtual box
[18:14] <Innopeor> I have an igp 340m (mobility radeon 9200 agp) and i want try to overclock it in Ubuntu. I have downloaded rovclock, it's info output is "Core: 213.75 MHz | Mem: 229.50 MHz", i'm not an expert with overclocking in general, how i can improve core|memory without burn my video card? sorry for my English...
[18:14] <bazhang> phantomcircuit, from repos or vbox site
[18:14] <slayton> !virtualbox
[18:15] <soundray> RageMachine: the presession root colour is set in /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default
[18:15] <bazhang> Innopeor, best ask in ##hardware
[18:15] <Warp4> heh i prefer vmware myself :)
[18:15] <Vooloo> what if I WANT to use root, is it possible?
[18:15] <phantomcircuit> bazhang, repos
[18:15] <tripps> firefox has started crawling as of the last update. running hardy. what has changed? in gmail, for example, it renders each line's "star" icon one at a time down the page rather than all at once. major changes to X or something? tried metacity and compiz - same thing. hardware direct rending is enabled - running ATI restricted drivers.
[18:15] <Warp4> Vooloo, run your commands as sudo
[18:15] <soundray> Vooloo: sure, you can get a root shell with 'sudo -i'.
[18:15] <RageMachine> soundray, yea i figured out what it was. Its because of xubuntu's settings not ubuntus, i got it all fixed now, though thanks for the help :)
[18:15] <Vooloo> Warp4: it gets tedious in the long run
[18:15] <phantomcircuit> the one in repos appears to be for  2.6.24-20 but im at 2.6.24-19
[18:15] <soundray> Vooloo: it's better to prepend your commands with sudo individually, though
[18:15] <GleepGlop> Vooloo: or sudo su
[18:15] <Clint-> VooLoo just use sudo
[18:15] <Vooloo> I mean su, not sudo
[18:15] <bazhang> phantomcircuit, the ose? what error are you getting? the one about not being in the correct group or other
[18:16] <RageMachine> Vooloo, you can login as root. but thats usually a bad idea
[18:16] <soundray> !rootshell | GleepGlop
[18:16] <Warp4> Vooloo, just assign your root user a password and use su
[18:16] <Vooloo> RageMachine: I mean su
[18:16] <Sylphid|work> Vooloo, sudo -i or sudo su
[18:16] <sandkop> ive installed ubuntu on a pendrive grub starts from the pendrive but it gives me an error that says it cannot mount the partition--- how do i do that?
[18:16] <Vooloo> ok
[18:16] <phantomcircuit> bazhang, the kernel driver isnt loaded
[18:16] <GleepGlop> You really shouldn;t run  sudo su though
[18:16] <soundray> !rootshell | Sylphid|work
[18:16] <GleepGlop> i know
[18:16] <Vooloo> thanks
[18:17] <Miesco> How come when I format my usb drive to ext3 it says its using 1 gig
[18:17] <tsuna27> why should I use linux
[18:17] <wishie> ok, so ive got my script running on boot, by using rc.local ... but how can i run 'myscript stop' or reboot/shutdown ?
[18:17] <Scorp_> tsuna27: Cuz u want to change to something better to use than windows...
[18:17] <soundray> tsuna27: this channel is more about the How than the Why. Perhaps ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[18:17] <bazhang> tsuna27, best to chat elsewhere; #ubuntu-offtopic is a nice place
[18:17] <phantomcircuit> bazhang, installing virtualbox-ose-modules-generic fails because linux-image-2.6.24-20-generic doesnt exist in the repos
[18:18] <phantomcircuit> bazhang, what is the current kernel version?
[18:18] <Softdel> Hi guys, question... I have seen someone using Pidgin to send a command to a linux server, and receive the contents of that command back, such as "uptime" anyone know what that app is?
[18:18] <Scorp_> Hey guys, am using X IRC Chat rite now... is there a better IRC Client than this ???
[18:18] <Grobvok> Softdel: probably a plugin.
[18:18] <rampageoberon> Softdel: you need to install /exec plugins
[18:18] <Miesco> Scorp_: no
[18:18] <Clint-> Scorp_, Naw
[18:19] <Warp4> Scorp_, no
[18:19] <wishie> haha
[18:19] <Scorp_> kk.. Thanks..!!
[18:19] <Clint-> Np
[18:19] <wishie> isnt that a matter of personal opinion ?
[18:19] <Sylphid|work> how do i uninstall OSS?
[18:19] <Scorp_> so all you guys using X irc ??
[18:19] <Clint-> wishie, i dont think so
[18:19] <bastid_raZor> Scorp_; irssi is a decent client. terminal based
[18:19] <Warp4> Sylphid|work,
[18:19] <Clint-> Scorp_, i Normally use BitchX
[18:19] <Warp4> Sylphid|work, OSS?
[18:19] <wishie> Clint-: so the fact that i cant stand Xchat, means i should still think its the best ?
[18:19] <Miesco> Im using x-chat
[18:19] <Sylphid|work> Warp4, the sound system
[18:19] <Warp4> depends on if you need to be in a gui or not
[18:19] <Softdel> X-Chat is pretty good
[18:19] <bazhang> phantomcircuit, what does uname -r say
[18:20] <Softdel> I use either that or some terminal IRC's
[18:20] <wishie> i use irssi in a translarent terminal, in X
[18:20] <Warp4> Sylphid|work, how did you install it to begin with?
[18:20] <qt-x> hy all
[18:20] <Sylphid|work> Warp4, its installed by default
[18:20] <phantomcircuit> <IP_ADDRESS>-generic
[18:20] <wishie> ok, so ive got my script running on boot, by using rc.local ... but how can i run 'myscript stop' or reboot/shutdown ?
[18:21] <Grobvok> "virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.24-20-generic" is in there, too.
[18:21] <Pici> Scorp_: To name a few of the more popular irc clients: Xchat, xchat-gnome, kopete, konversation, irssi
[18:21] <Scorp_> Pici: thanks...!! Thats wat i was looking for maybe... Thanks alot
[18:21] <rw> Hi. I just removed pcmanfm and install the pcmanfm version from getdeb. The program is listed as "pcmanfm" in synaptic. When I try to launch it it says "file does not exist". What's wrong?
[18:21] <Clint-> wishie,  Does your script run then close and launch a process?
[18:21] <Warp4> Sylphid|work, trying removing it using apt-get remove (or if using a GUI, try Synaptic)
[18:22]  * phantomcircuit installs virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.24-19-generic
[18:22] <phantomcircuit> whatever
[18:22] <Sylphid|work> Warp4, tried that but i cant seem to locate the OSS package
[18:22] <Grobvok> After you install the module, you need to add yourself to the "vboxusers" group.
[18:22] <qt-x> if chkrootkit return permission denide for some file dose that mean that I have a rootkit ?
[18:22] <wishie> Clint-: i wrote a small bash script that monitors my wifi connection, and mounts my network drives for me.. i background it at boot time, and it runs well.. but i need to execute 'myscript stop' when shutting down/
[18:23] <bastid_raZor> the current kernel is 2.6.24-19 correct?
[18:23] <waan> Can anyone help me reinstall my bootloader, my install failed halfway through and now I cannot boot grub
[18:23] <Clint-> wishie, I understand what you mean i made a stop.sh script and just run it before i shutdown
[18:23] <Grobvok> bastid_raZor: type 'uname -r'
[18:23] <Clint-> wishie,  Basically i grep the pid of the procs i want then kill them
[18:23] <Grobvok> In a terminal, that is :D
[18:23] <bastid_raZor> Grobvok; i know what kernel i have
[18:23] <soundray> bastid_raZor: no, -20 is out
[18:24] <wishie> Clint-: thats what i do, sort of.. i have 'wifimount' (my script) which takes an optional 'stop' argument.. which kills itself.
[18:24] <bastid_raZor> soundray; from a normal aptitude update process when will that be released to masses?
[18:24] <wishie> hmm, i could use init.d instead of rc.local i guess
[18:24] <Mark_vH> anyone ever had a problem that ubuntu hardy gives a black screen when you run the live cd?
[18:24] <Clint-> wishie,  i got ya hrmm your gonna need to find a file that is run on shutdown to put your stop commands in i would assume
[18:24] <soundray> bastid_raZor: oops, did I just say that?
[18:24] <edmoore> anyone at all have any experience setting up lvm on RAID?
[18:25] <phantomcircuit> whatever
[18:25] <waan> Mark_vH, I have that problem on my notebook
[18:25] <bastid_raZor> soundray; i must be hearing things
[18:25] <Mark_vH> waan: i'm running it on a Fujitsu Amilo L 6820
[18:25] <wishie> Mark_vH: tried the alternate cd ?
[18:25] <phantomcircuit> the package is assuming that you have the latest kernel installed
[18:25] <soundray> bastid_raZor: I installed a third-party kernel yesterday that was based on -20... let me check proposed
[18:25] <Mark_vH> waan, any idea on how to fix it?
[18:25] <wishie> Mark_vH: my mates laptop wont boot/install with the 'live cd'
[18:25] <phantomcircuit> but i am a single revision behind so it didnt work
[18:25] <wishie> Mark_vH: but it installs fine with the 'alternate' cd
[18:26] <DeeJayTwo> I'm running 8.04 and openoffice recently started with broken fonts..
[18:26] <Mark_vH> wishie: so the alternate cd does work? weird
[18:26] <DeeJayTwo> I mean.. The File menu...every menu...
[18:26] <DeeJayTwo> With weird symbols
[18:26] <bastid_raZor> soundray; i tend to not muck with the kernel for any reason. safe is better than bleeding edge
[18:26] <waan> Mark_vH, you could try the alt cd, or text based installer
[18:26] <Mark_vH> wishie: what's so alternat about it? (besides it working)
[18:26] <naxxtor> erm
[18:26] <waan> Any grub experts here?
[18:26] <wishie> Mark_vH: well, it doesnt have the 'live' part, and its a text based installer
[18:26] <Scorp_> waan, wat help do u want ???
[18:26] <phantomcircuit> i love how windows xp sp3 is 15 GB all by itself
[18:26] <Clint-> I would suggest text based
[18:26] <phantomcircuit> and ubuntu with a crap ton of programs is < 5
[18:27] <soundray> bastid_raZor: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/ has -20, but it doesn't seem to be on general release yet
[18:27] <Mark_vH> wishie: thanks, i'll try that cd instead
[18:27] <waan> Scorp_, my bootloader was removed after my ubuntu install failed, i've tried some commands in grub but cant get it back
[18:27] <RageMachine> Is there any downside to using alt-ctrl-backspace to end a session? I want to use awn-dock only,but the logout applet doesnt work currently.
[18:27] <parkin> how do you make a linuxsystem to send local mails to an external adress?
[18:27] <RageMachine> wann, you could try #grub for help too
[18:27] <salmon> hey quick question. how would one go about changing the rain drop thingy in compfiz to something else. like falling leaves pre-say?
[18:28] <Warp4> parkin, how do you mean?
[18:28] <bastid_raZor> RageMachine; i used AWN for ages then i found Cairo-Dock
[18:28] <waan> RageMachine, i will thanks
[18:28] <GleepGlop> finally got Last.fm svn source to compile. ugh
[18:28] <bazhang> salmon, may wish to ask the experts in compiz channel for that
[18:28] <Pici> salmon: Thats definitely a question for #compiz-fusion  They'd know alot better than us.
[18:28] <RageMachine> bastid_raZor, that didnt answer the quest, lol.
[18:28] <RageMachine> bastid_raZor, that didnt answer the question**, lol.
[18:28] <bastid_raZor> RageMachine; it wasn't meant to.
[18:28] <qt-x> what  /home/user/.gvfs do ?
[18:29] <RageMachine> bastid_raZor: well, now that your talking to me you better answer! :P
[18:29] <naxxtor> qt-x: store files i guess ....
[18:29] <naxxtor> qt-x: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GVFS ?
[18:29] <soundray> RageMachine: Ctrl-Alt-Backspace kills all your running programs without giving them or you a chance to save open files.
[18:29] <RageMachine> soundray :/
[18:29] <Stormx2> Hi everyone! What program can I use to burn a DVD. Not an image, not files, an actual video DVD
[18:30] <m4lmsteen> im looking at my harddrive space... it says 284 gigs total... 280 gigs free... but only 266 gigs available... what gives ?
[18:30] <soundray> RageMachine: it can be more or less of a problem, depending on which packages you use.
[18:30] <Pici> m4lmsteen: devede is one such program.
[18:30] <Clint-> Stormx2, You can use nero
[18:30] <Stormx2> Clint-, is that hard to install?
[18:30] <m4lmsteen> Pici, what ?
[18:30] <Clint-> Stormx2,  sudo apt-get install nero
[18:30] <Siph0n> Stormx2, what format is the video in now? an iso image? or the audio/video folders?
[18:30] <empiric> hi all guys for some reasons i am going to install MS office 2003 on ubuntu 7.04 thriugh wine its my boss who needs so any idea it seems very slow working why?
[18:30] <bastid_raZor> Stormx2; k3b works well for me.
[18:30] <Scorp_>  waan, sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/root /dev/hda .... use this command to reinstall grub... and set the root directory to ur default directory
[18:30] <Pici> m4lmsteen: Sorry, wrong person.
[18:30] <m4lmsteen> oh ok
[18:30] <m4lmsteen> lol
[18:30] <Stormx2> Siph0n: It's a .avi unfortunately
[18:31] <waan> Scorp_, ok i'll try that out
[18:31] <Clint-> Stormx2, your gonna need to either use some old school linux converting progs or install wine and use Convertx to dvd by vso soft
[18:31] <bastid_raZor> Stormx2; you'll have to convert it to dvd format to actually play on a dvd player.. that is an entirely different process
[18:31] <Siph0n> Stormx2, so you would have to convert it to a dvd, than burn it, i would think? maybe convert it to an iso, than burn it as an image using gnomebaker?
[18:31] <Pici> Stormx2: devede can turn video files into dvd images, I'm not sure what formats it supports though.
[18:31] <RageMachine> empiric, check winehq to see the status, that site usually tells you how to go about getting it to work as best as possible. Is open office really not an option?
[18:32] <empiric> no
[18:32] <Clint-> Pici, it doesnt support avi
[18:32] <Stormx2> Thanks everyone!
[18:32] <empiric> am working perfectly ok with open office but my boss say if u need ubuntu then do ms office on my laptop
[18:32] <Stormx2> I'll give devede a try I think
[18:32] <m4lmsteen> where is my invisible harddrive space ?
[18:32] <m4lmsteen> im looking at my harddrive space... it says 284 gigs total... 280 gigs free... but only 266 gigs available... what gives ?
[18:33] <Scorp_>  hey guys, is there a way to select the default sound output ?? as in, i'm using the default laptop speakers as well as the USB speakers at times... How do i toggle between the two ???
[18:33] <waan> Scorp_, which device should I set it to, I have sda with 5 partitions?
[18:33] <Starnestommy> m4lmsteen: some of it may be swap or it could be a counting error
[18:33] <Clint-> m4lmsteen, It is system files etc a hard drive never shows exactly the right space
[18:33] <Scorp_> waan: which is the one where the home directory is located ?? the partition where ubuntu is installed ??? its usually sda1
[18:33] <m4lmsteen> oh ok
[18:33] <mifritscher> re
[18:34] <EdijusXP> Can someone pm me who knows about ubuntu and writing DVDs
[18:34] <rkpisanu> !subtitles
[18:34] <Clint-> EdijusXP, if you ask here we will help you
[18:34] <rkpisanu> |subs
[18:34] <bastid_raZor> m4lmsteen; i noticed in 8.04 that gvfs-fuse-daemon likes to take about the same size as /
[18:34] <bazhang> EdijusXP, might look at devede
[18:34] <rkpisanu> !subs
[18:34] <Clint-> EdijusXP, if your looking to add subtitles take a look at a windows program called vobsub
[18:35] <Clint-> Runs fine on wine
[18:35] <rkpisanu> !movie
[18:35] <Scorp_>  hey guys, I need help regarding the sound output selection using ALSA !!!
[18:35] <Stormx2> !msgthebot | rkpisanu
[18:35] <Myrtti> !lastlog rkpisanu
[18:35] <EdijusXP> Clint-: I want install Ubuntu and xp in the same comp. i wonder how much space i need for ubuntu if i want burn DVDs.
[18:35] <waan> Scorp_, it isn't installed because the installer fails, i'm trying to boot back into windows to do an "in windows" install using wubi
[18:35] <bazhang> rkpisanu, best to /msg ubottu
[18:35] <empiric> RageMachine do 8.04 is ok or 7.04
[18:35] <pulse00> hi all. quick question: when directory permissions look like "drwxrwsr-x 7 www-data subversion"  , shouldn't be all users in the "subversion" group be able to write to the folder ?
[18:35] <Myrtti> rkpisanu: try what "aptitude search subtitle" gives
[18:35] <rkpisanu> ok, sorry
[18:36] <Hexacoder_> makoo
[18:36] <Myrtti> rkpisanu: plenty of programs, perhaps some of them can
[18:36] <Hexacoder_> mako
[18:36] <rkpisanu> thanks Myrtti
[18:36] <Scorp_> waan: u need to use the windows Master Boot Record installer then... Try googling it... Reinstalling Windows Boot record..
[18:36] <bazhang> Hexacoder_, do you have a question
[18:36] <Hexacoder_> nope thnx
[18:36] <Clint-> EdijusXP, the ubuntu install isnt that large. If you have never used ubuntu or not experienced with it before you dual boot i would suggest using wmware workstation and run a vitural ubuntu machine for testing
[18:36] <Stormx2> pulse00: Yeah
[18:36] <mifritscher> is that normal that a normal user can't open ttyS0 despite its in dialout?
[18:36] <waan> Scorp_, righty o
[18:36] <Hexacoder_> bazhang:
[18:37] <pulse00> Stormx2, i thought so too. however i get a "permission denied" when trying to write a file there
[18:37] <jazzkutya> my ff says 2 new addons have been installed...
[18:37] <EdijusXP> Clint-: I do not want VM. I need winxp and ubuntu installed in.
[18:37] <Hexacoder_> do u know a software that i can install on imate kja
[18:37] <Stormx2> pulse00, I don't know then :/
[18:37] <Clint-> mifritscher, If you look in the user and group editor the ability to send faxes is locked you need to enable it
[18:37] <pulse00> Stormx2, do you know how i can check which groups a user is in ?
[18:37] <Hexacoder_> kjam
[18:37] <jazzkutya> is this an automatic update? then why does it say install...
[18:37] <jazzkutya> or a new install, but then who told it to install...
[18:37] <mifritscher> Clint: its the group dialout, right?
[18:38] <soundray> EdijusXP: give the system 3GB if all you want to do is burn DVDs, plus space for the content
[18:38] <Clint-> mifritscher, If you give me a sec ill check but i belive so
[18:38] <Stormx2> pulse00: System > Administration > Users?
[18:38] <Stormx2> I don't know.
[18:38] <Stormx2> I need to go anyway
[18:38] <soundray> EdijusXP: you can get by with less if you have to
[18:38] <Stormx2> Thanks for all the help :)
[18:38] <EdijusXP> soundray: So, how big partition must be?
[18:38] <Scorp_> waan: the command is fixmbr
[18:38] <rkpisanu> it is possible to undelete a file deleted ?
[18:38] <mifritscher> ah
[18:38] <Hexacoder_> bazhang:  do u know something to install on i mate kjam
[18:38] <Stormx2> rkpisanu: Depends on the filesystem
[18:38] <soundray> EdijusXP: 3GB
[18:38] <mifritscher> Clint: there is bove a group fax and dialout
[18:38] <Hexacoder_> opensource
[18:38] <bazhang> Hexacoder_, what is that
[18:38] <mifritscher> (but ttySS0 belongs to dialout)
[18:38] <Stormx2> if it's ext3, probably not. Not without a big hassle.
[18:38] <Clint-> Yes mifritscher  its the checkbox that says send and recieve faxes
[18:39] <rkpisanu> Stormx2, ntfs
[18:39] <Hexacoder_> i mean PDA
[18:39] <EdijusXP> soundray: Thank you for answer.
[18:39] <Clint-> mifritscher, thats weird
[18:39] <waan> Scorp_, I don't have a cdrom drive by the way, which is why im in this live system heh
[18:39] <bastid_raZor> pulse00; in a terminal type groups username
[18:39] <waan> Scorp_, i'm stuck between a rock and a hard place
[18:39] <pulse00> bastid_raZor, thanks a lot
[18:39] <EdijusXP> soundray: So, Do I need type 3072 for partition size?
[18:39] <wishie> hmm, how to start a script, and have it background itself..
[18:39] <Clint-> waan, you can install via usb
[18:40] <Clint-> wishie,  you could always screen it
[18:40] <pulse00> bastid_raZor, should't user foo be in group bar with the following command: "addgroup foo bar" ?
[18:40] <naruttebayo> Hi. I've been trying to reinstall ubuntu but for some reason the LiveCD will not boot. It gets to the first menu and when I select "Boot from Live CD" it freezes. I've also tried booting two other Debian-based LiveCDs, Linux Mint and gOS, but both have the same glitch. However, Puppy Linux and SliTaz both boot fine.
[18:40] <bastid_raZor> pulse00; yes if you do it with sudo
[18:40] <waan> Clint-, I've been trying for about 3 hours, It says there is an error while copying files. I've tried modifying files and reformatting the drive
[18:40] <Stormx2> rkpisanu: Install ntfsprogs. That contains the app "ntfsundelete" :)
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> hey all
[18:40] <pulse00> bastid_raZor, i'm doing it as root
[18:40] <mifritscher> Clint-:  didn't help
[18:40] <Scorp_> waan: what do u wana do ?? repair to windows or ubuntu ????
[18:41] <Clint-> naruttebayo, try the alternative cd
[18:41] <pulse00> bastid_raZor, strange, i needed to reboot to make the permissions work
[18:41] <Clint-> mifritscher, weird im not sure m8
[18:41] <soundray> EdijusXP: yes, or make it a bit bigger if you think you might install other software in the future & you have room
[18:41] <waan> Scorp_, I'm trying to get ubuntu installed, but that failed after my efforts so I was trying to get back into windows. But my main goal is ubuntu
[18:41] <rkpisanu> thanks Stormx2
[18:41] <bastid_raZor> pulse00; oh, you didn't need to reboot just start a new terminal.
[18:41] <Clint-> waan, =/ sorry to hear that
[18:42] <deepfriedsquirre> I've got a directx install window that won't go away
[18:42] <EdijusXP> New one question:  does ubuntu 8.04 supports wireless? I have advent 7204 laptop.
[18:42] <waan> It's ok i'm just in a console trying to figure out why the installer fails
[18:42] <Scorp_> waan: use the liveCd to format a partition and install ubuntu fresh...
[18:42] <psycold> any 1 use fusion-icon on ubuntu 8.04
[18:42] <deepfriedsquirre> pkill wine didn't work for me :-(
[18:42] <waan> Scorp_,  no cdrom drive
[18:42] <deepfriedsquirre> Any ideas on how to kill it?
[18:42] <Clint-> deepfriedsquirre, in a terminal type ps aux find the pid of the window and then kill -9 pid#
[18:42] <gjr5017> is there a way to make Banshee monitor my music folder instead of needing to add all my music manually?
[18:42] <bastid_raZor> deepfriedsquirre; sudo killall wine
[18:42] <waan> I thought installing from usb would be a doddle
[18:42] <Clint-> where pid# is just put the #
[18:43] <Scorp_> waan: u can copy the installer to a pen drive and run it from there...
[18:43] <Clint-> waan, I had issues with it also
[18:43] <Stormx2> deepfriedsquirre: Wine programs seem to show up now as the actual executable's name, like setup.exe
[18:43] <deepfriedsquirre> Thank you bo0th
[18:43] <Stormx2> Rather than wine.
[18:43] <bastid_raZor> deepfriedsquirre; ps aux|grep wine    to be more specific on that one.
[18:43] <Stormx2> I *think*
[18:43] <codazoda> I'm using gedit, with the "External Tools" plugin.  If I use the "Selected word" plugin, it uses underscore as a word seperator.  So, mysql_array is not one word.  Any way to fix that?
[18:43] <waan> Scorp_, Clint-, I'm currently running live system from usb drive
[18:43] <waan> Scorp_, Clint-, Trying to get the system installed
[18:43] <waan> with no MBR
[18:44] <Vooloo> I have trouble getting my wireless working, in the upper right corner it says 93%, but when I right click and choose "Connection Information" there is no IP from my routers DHCP... and I can't ping the router IP either
[18:44] <deepfriedsquirre> Clint-: Your method worked nicely. Thanks
[18:44] <Clint-> deepfriedsquirre, no problem
[18:44] <XiXaQ> can someone tell me whether or not I should be able to use a wlan driver for Windows Vista in Ubuntu using ndiswraper?
[18:44] <Clint-> XiXaQ, yes use ndiswrapper or madwifi
[18:44] <furenku> why must I run Jack as root in order for it to load the driver "firewire" correctly? otherwise i get
[18:44] <furenku> 3
[18:44] <Scorp_> waan:  cant u use the install icon on the desktop.. ???
[18:44] <furenku> errors
[18:44] <waan> Scorp_, Clint-, I've tried mounting the iso directly to /media/cdrom but that doesn't seem to work
[18:45] <polishpaul> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fow7iUaKrq4
[18:45] <waan> Scorp_, Yes but the installer fails at 55% (Failed to copy files to hard disk)
[18:45] <XiXaQ> Clint-, thanks. I did install a gui for ndiswrapper, which seems very plain and simple. I then downloaded the driver, and selected it in that gui, but it sais the device isn't present. However, it's built-in..
[18:45] <XiXaQ> any ideas?
[18:45] <waan> Scorp_, I copied all the files from the root of the cd onto the stuck
[18:45] <waan> s/stuck/stick
[18:45] <bazhang> polishpaul, dont paste that here
[18:46] <Scorp_> waan: Ohh... Can u not possibly take a CD Drive for sometime just to install Ubuntu and then give it back ?? a friend or some1 else ???
[18:46] <polishpaul> bezhang, its relevant to the kill -9 question :)
[18:46] <Clint-> XiXaQ,  i assume your talking about a wireless card ?
[18:46] <bazhang> polishpaul, no.
[18:46] <polishpaul> ok...
[18:46] <XiXaQ> Vooloo, your router is configured for DHCP? Do you use encryption on it, like wpa or wep and have you provided it to network manager?
[18:46] <polishpaul> my bad
[18:46] <XiXaQ> Clint-, a built-in wlan adapter, yes.
[18:46]  * Softdel is back
[18:47] <Vooloo> XiXaQ: yes I entered the passphrase etc.
[18:47] <waan> Scorp_, Yes thats possible I have one down the hall, but I really want to get this working via USB, so I can do it next time. And also for the knowledge
[18:47] <Clint-> XiXaQ,  open terminal and type ifconfig ath0
[18:47] <Clint-> XiXaQ, see what it gives you
[18:47] <Vooloo> XiXaQ: shouldnt there be a dhcp client installed in ubuntu?
[18:47] <XiXaQ> Vooloo, you don't get any errors? Perhaps you should just wait a while. A couple of minutes at least.
[18:47] <Clint-> Vooloo, you still need your router to assign the ip or you manually have to set it
[18:47] <EdijusXP> New one question:  does ubuntu 8.04 supports wireless? I have advent 7204 laptop.
[18:47] <XiXaQ> Vooloo, yes. There is.
[18:47] <Vooloo> XiXaQ: did
[18:47] <Clint-> EdijusXP, yes im on a toshiba right now
[18:47] <Scorp_> waan: Maybe u can just install the computer wid a CD first and then use the USB the second.. I would always love to have a Running PC before fiddling with it
[18:47] <Vooloo> Clint-: thats what dhcp does..
[18:47] <Clint-> EdijusXP, atheros shipset
[18:48] <Vooloo> XiXaQ: typing dhcp <tab> in terminal doesnothing
[18:48] <XiXaQ> EdijusXP, it supports wireless. However, not all drivers can be supported or distributed.
[18:48] <EdijusXP> Clint-: it was not working for me
[18:48] <Vooloo> or well it does as root
[18:48] <XiXaQ> Vooloo, sounds reasonable.
[18:48] <waan> Scorp_, yes I think I might have to, but I know there are other people out there who don't have cd drives, and the getting this to work would be really great.
[18:49] <Vooloo> but it still assigns no ip..
[18:49] <EdijusXP> XiXaQ: i'm on windows only becouse i cant connect to internet using linux.
[18:49] <waan> Scorp_, do you think it would be worth trying the text instaler?
[18:49] <Clint-> waan, its worth a try
[18:49] <soundray> waan: when it stops copying at 55% there's something wrong with your media
[18:49] <XiXaQ> EdijusXP, doesn't work, isn't working, etc, doesn't mean anything. If you go to a doctor, you wouldn't say, "I don't work properly, what's wrong?". You'd explain your symptoms.
[18:49] <Clint-> XiXaQ,  +p
[18:49] <Clint-> err =P
[18:50] <Scorp_> waan: I believe its probably an error with the files u have on ur USB... Maybe a redownload and then install using the USB should help
[18:50] <waan> soundray, it's a usb stick, which im currently booted off
[18:50] <Scorp_> waan:  Cuz the installer rarely stops midways... try ubuntu ultimate maybe...
[18:50] <waan> I could try a second thumb drive
[18:50] <EdijusXP> XiXaQ: it tries connect, but it stucks
[18:50] <soundray> !ultimate | Scorp_
[18:50] <Scorp_> waan:  or download from a diff source and then install that... torrents or another server...
[18:50] <Clint-> waan, Question are you using usb 1.0 or 2.2
[18:51] <Scorp_> soundray: I dont want any support or anything regarding it.. just gave a suggestion...
[18:51] <waan> Not really an option, I can only get files from my mirror
[18:51] <Altreus-work> I have: Hardy, wine, wow, teamspeak. I can't get the latter to work together whether I use the windows or the nix version of TS, and I have heard talk of a wine patch that will help, but I can't find it because I don't know what I'm looking for. Any ideas?
[18:51] <XiXaQ> EdijusXP, are you able to connect to the wlan using another pc or another operating system on the same machine?
[18:51] <waan> Clint-, how do I tell that?
[18:51] <soundray> Scorp_: please don't suggest ultimate here, unless you're prepared to personally provide support for it
[18:51] <soundray> waan: I mean your install media
[18:51] <EdijusXP> XiXaQ: the same pc on windows
[18:51] <waan> Clint-, hardware is usb2
[18:51] <Clint-> waan, ok just checking
[18:52] <XiXaQ> EdijusXP, what kind of encryption does the network use?
[18:52] <waan> Clint-, it's a 1gb kingston thumb drive
[18:52] <Yondering> hello.. using ubunt 8.04, 64-bit.. first time I installed on this pc, the adobe flash player auto installed when I tried to watch something at youtube.. now it won't do that after a reinstall (formatted / and reinstalled, ran updates).  Any ideas?
[18:52] <Scorp_> soundray: I only suggested because its based totally on ubuntu... Its not really an outparty stuff.. I cant believe an open community could have such an issue...!!!
[18:52] <XiXaQ> Yondering, why are you using 64bit?
[18:52] <Yondering> my /home partition is still intact.
[18:52] <Clint-> waan, Yea mabey try to re write the files to the thumbdrive or try a diff thumbdrive
[18:52] <soundray> Scorp_: it's in the interest of keeping this channel useful for Ubuntu and official derivatives.
[18:52] <EdijusXP> XiXaQ: wep (hex) wpa psk
[18:53] <Yondering> XiXaQ, umm.. 64 bit pc?
[18:53] <Scorp_> soundray: Sorry..!!
[18:53] <XiXaQ> EdijusXP, if you disable encryption on the router, does it work?
[18:53] <soundray> Yondering: get it with 'sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree'
[18:53] <waan> Clint-, soundray, Is there a way I can verify my ISO's integrity?
[18:53] <Yondering> soundray, thanks.. will try that.. (again)..
[18:53] <Clint-> waan, there is a way but i have no clue how to do it in linux
[18:53] <EdijusXP> XiXaQ: i have not tried or i do not remember
[18:53] <soundray> waan: there is a boot option
[18:53] <XiXaQ> Yondering, that makes no difference. It's a very common misconception. Ubuntu 32bit not only works on 64bit CPUs, it's the preferred version.
[18:53] <Yondering> XiXaQ, why?
[18:53] <waan> soundray, unfortunately I cant boot from it
[18:54] <waan> Anyway I will have to grab a CDrom drive it looks like
[18:54] <Stormx2> XiXaQ, speak for yourself. I use 64 bit and it's faster and I can see all my RAM.
[18:54] <XiXaQ> Yondering, Flash, for instance, is proprietary. Since 64bit OSes are less common, it will receive less attention.
[18:54] <Clint-> waan, if you live in the usa east coast ill send ya 5 or 6 of them if you would like
[18:54] <soundray> !md5 | waan
[18:54] <Stormx2> XiXaQ, the 32bit version of flash runs with in nswrapper (or whatever it's called)
[18:55] <Stormx2> XiXaQ, it's no issue installing flash on 64 bit in hardy. It's a single apt get and it works.
[18:55] <Yondering> XiXaQ, that's not a bad point, however - if we're all happy with 32-bit, 64 bit will recieve no attention, period.
[18:55] <XiXaQ> Yondering, you'll want to stick with 32bit Ubuntu unless you know why you don't want to. To be more spesific, you'll want to stick with 32bit unless a single application in your system needs to use more than 4GB RAM.
[18:55] <waan> Thankyou I will try that
[18:55] <Scorp_> How to check my system's bit version ? if it is 32 bit or 64 bit ???
[18:55] <Beta-guy> I just installed Linux on a laptop,  however I noticed it's not benchmarking as high as it did under Windows I suspect this is due to speedstep, is there a application in Ubuntu that let's me set the speed the CPU is supposed to run at?
[18:55] <Clint-> uanme -a
[18:55] <Clint-> uname -a
[18:55] <RussianPhysicsGu> Hi all, I was forced to force a shutdown of my computer with the power button today, and when I rebooted, Ubuntu had reverted to all the default settings with which it had been installed. Any way to bring back my settings? Thanks...
[18:55] <XiXaQ> Stormx2, yes, but still, it's more complicated than simply running 32bit ubuntu.
[18:55] <Stormx2> How so?
[18:56] <soundray> Yondering: I fully support your position. I use 64 bit whereever possible. The only trouble left is java in the browser -- this will be gone when intrepid is out.
[18:56] <achilleas> Do all official versions of ubuntu share the shame package repositories ??
[18:56] <Stormx2> You can use apt-get for both 32 bit and 64 bit.
[18:56] <Oi> oi :o
[18:56] <XiXaQ> Stormx2, most people assume you're using 32bit. Not all applications, specially proprietary, will not run on 32bit.
[18:56] <Stormx2> XiXaQ, what applications?
[18:56] <Stormx2> Aside from Java.
[18:56] <Dexikiix> hey
[18:56] <Stormx2> Flash is sorted because it's contained.
[18:56] <XiXaQ> Stormx2, google earth, second life, etc?
[18:57] <achilleas> Do all official ubuntu derivatives share the shame package repositories ?????
[18:57] <Stormx2> Wine runs 32 bit apps fine in 64 bit ubuntu :/
[18:57] <soundray> XiXaQ: googleearth runs fine here on 64
[18:57] <Dexikiix> anyone know that command to get all the files required to build a specific program?
[18:57] <Dexikiix> i think it was build-dep or something
[18:57] <EdijusXP> XiXaQ: How can I disable encryption?
[18:57] <Stormx2> Dexikiix, absolutely right.
[18:57] <XiXaQ> Stormx2, the point is that there are no great advantages for a normal user to use 64bit, but there are some problems once in a while. It isn't worth it unless you know why it's worth it.
[18:57] <Dexikiix> Stormx2: know the exact syntax
[18:57] <Dexikiix> ?
[18:57] <XiXaQ> EdijusXP, depends on your router.
[18:57] <lot`> build-essentials
[18:57] <Beta-guy> is there a speedstep program for Ubuntu?
[18:57] <Stormx2> Dexikiix: sudo apt-get build-dep whatever
[18:57] <lot`> Dexikiix,
[18:57] <Dexikiix> thanks Stormx2
[18:57] <soundray> Dexikiix: 'apt-get build-dep sourcepackagename'
[18:58] <Dexikiix> :p
[18:58] <achilleas> ????? Do ubuntu and kubuntu share the shame package repositories ?????
[18:58] <EdijusXP> XiXaQ: I have speedtouch thomson st585 v6
[18:58] <Stormx2> achilleas, yes.
[18:58] <Dexikiix> thats gonna save me a lot of time when i compile funpidgin again :p
[18:58] <soundray> achilleas: yes
[18:58] <achilleas> ty :)
[18:58] <Stormx2> beat you soundray :O
[18:58]  * soundray cringes under Stormx2's weight
[18:58] <polishpaul> after running: update-rc.d ssh remove, i get = /etc/init.d/ssh exists during rc.d purge any ideas?
[18:58] <XiXaQ> EdijusXP, sorry. It's outside the scope of the channel, and you'd probably figure it out way faster than I could, since I don't have access.
[18:58] <Dexikiix> hey... random question
[18:59] <Stormx2> soundray, oh jog on :(
[18:59] <Dexikiix> do you guys pronounce it SuDOO or SuDoh
[18:59] <Dexikiix> dew or dough
[18:59] <Clint-> dew
[18:59] <soundray> Stormx2: sorry :)
[18:59] <Clint-> personally
[18:59] <Stormx2> Sue - Doh
[18:59] <Clint-> =P
[18:59] <XiXaQ> EdijusXP, somewhere in your routers configuration webapp, there should be an option to choose encryption method. It should also provide a "no encryption" option.
[18:59] <Stormx2> (i.e. sue dough)
[18:59] <EdijusXP> XiXaQ: Would be VNC enought?
[18:59] <Dexikiix> yeah i've always thought it was like pseudo :p
[18:59] <XiXaQ> EdijusXP, or something similar.
[19:00] <Dexikiix> but if the do means literally "do" then it should be the other way
[19:00] <vipaca> I can't get virtualbox to work because when I issue sudo gpasswd -a `whoami` vboxusers it doesnot add me to the group?
[19:00] <Stormx2> That's what it does mean, but you can pronounce acronyms however :O
[19:00] <Clint-> vipaca, Are you using a gui you can use the users and groups manager
[19:00] <XiXaQ> EdijusXP, that would have made it technically possible, but I don't have the time. I'm sure you will figure it out. Read your routers manual, or just explore it's interface. Have you used it before?
[19:01] <EdijusXP> XiXaQ: OK. Thanks again, I will try when I have Ubuntu installed.
[19:04] <XiXaQ> EdijusXP, good luck, and have fun :)
[19:04] <waan> Scorp_, I can't find the .gpg file
[19:04] <schmick_> Hi there!.. has anyone had problems with a pppoe through ADSL with this symptoms? ->After a while, connection stays alive but cannot resolve any hosts. Ping works, but plog returns blank.
[19:04] <polishpaul> su doh
[19:04] <waan> err
[19:05] <waan> soundray, I can't find the .gpg file
[19:05] <Riotta> can you recommend me something good to play midi files ?
[19:05] <waan> soundray, ohh nevermind got it
[19:05] <Clint-> Riotta, I personally use vlc media player for everything
[19:06] <Riotta> didn't know that vlc support midi format
[19:06] <Clint-> Riotta, sudo apt-get install vlc
[19:06] <Clint-> Riotta,  it accually supports every fileformat i have ever thrown at it
[19:07] <MrPickle> can somebody help me with compiling my very first program?
[19:07] <Clint-> MrPickle, Ask your question we will help you
[19:08] <MrPickle> cool...basically Ive got this program [didn't write it- downloaded from gnomefiles.org or something]. Ive got it ready to compile, but the 'make' fucntion doesnt seem to work
[19:08] <offline> hi all
[19:08] <Clint-> MrPickle, try gmake
[19:08] <offline> can i make partition on disk from ubuntu live cd ?
[19:08] <waan> Clint-, Ok I have verified the iso file, and its good
[19:08] <GleepGlop> MrPickle: did you run ./configure
[19:08] <yaazel> Hello I just now installed UBUNTU 8.0. I'm a new user. While installing it didn't ask me for any kind of root password
[19:08] <polishpaul> schmick_: cat /etc/resolv.conf ?
[19:09] <Clint-> waan, Then i would say it might be the usb drive
[19:09] <waan> Clint-, guess that means to try copying the files from the thumb drive
[19:09] <polishpaul> schmick_: dig <domain name> or nslookup <domian name> ?
[19:09] <naxxtor> ergh - i'm having problems compiling the alsa modules
[19:09] <Myrtti> !root | yaazel
[19:09] <naxxtor> make is giving me remarkably unhelpful errors
[19:09] <kahrytan> What does pciutil do?
[19:09] <bastid_raZor> yaazel; it isn't going to. use sudo to access root privileges
[19:09] <MrPickle> gleepglop, yeah and there werent any errors on that. The next step after that in the readme that came with this just says to use the command "make depend; make"
[19:09] <minimax> I'm having a problem with jackd, required for rosegarden
[19:10] <sohail_> hello
[19:10] <s`s> yaazel: of course, you can also use your user account to give a password to root, if you really want to
[19:10] <naxxtor> http://pastebin.com/d6d7b8cd2 <-- make Error 2 when trying to compile alsa modules
[19:10] <minimax> I start the servers manually. Alsa crackles so much it's unusable, OSS works but it still crackles a lot
[19:10] <GleepGlop> MrPickle: what app is it?
[19:10] <offline> hoe can make partition on disk from ubuntu cd ?
[19:10] <Myrtti> yaazel: however, if you decide to enable root password, you're pretty much on your own
[19:10] <kahrytan> What does pciutils do?
[19:11] <GleepGlop> !pciutils
[19:11] <minimax> I think I know why I can't run it as root, though. 2 versions of Timidity
[19:12] <MrPickle> gleepglop: its called "crossfire", some kind of an  rpg client. not all that sure what or why im doing with it [ive had ubuntu for a good solid 32 hours]
[19:12] <kahrytan> GleepGlop»  nice try.
[19:12] <waan> Clint-, what do you think would be the next step if it isn't the usb drive?
[19:12] <GleepGlop> kahytan: nice try on what?
[19:13] <waan> Clint-, because bad news, the usb stick is fine
[19:13] <kahrytan> What does pciutils do?
[19:13] <Clint-> waan,  hrmm im honestly nto sure
[19:13] <GleepGlop> MrPickle: crossfire is in the repos
[19:13] <paolo_> how do I copy "cp -a / /mnt/tmp" so that it wouldn't copy /mnt/tmp into itself?
[19:14] <MrPickle> gleepglop, whatchoo talkin bout, willis?
[19:14] <Clint-> MrPickle, You can install it using in terminal sudo apt-get install crossfire
[19:14] <Sprax_> Hi, wierd problem: why on earth can I connect to apache when as far as I can tell it's not running? "... -k stop" for instance gives me: httpd (no pid file) not running. It's a ... ghost??
[19:14] <Clint-> it will install compile and config automatically
[19:14] <GleepGlop> MrPickle: is it called crossfire-client ?
[19:14] <MrPickle> clint, ill give that a try
[19:14] <MrPickle> gleepglop, yeah
[19:14] <GleepGlop> PCIUTILS This package contains various utilities for inspecting and setting of devices connected to the PCI bus.
[19:15] <Clint-> MrPickle,  As GleepGlop  Just said it would be sudo apt-get install crossfire-client
[19:15] <GleepGlop> MrPickle: it is in the repos
[19:15] <kahrytan> GleepGlop»  epic fail.
[19:15] <MrPickle> gleepglop, what is repos?
[19:15] <GleepGlop> apt-get
[19:15] <Clint-> MrPickle, Repositories

[19:23] <ATA_Dark_Shadow> greetings, is it possible to look at the screen resolution of a .mov file with konqueror or any other programm in "listing" mode ? so to speak : i can look what resolutions vobs and such have, but not mov.
[19:23] <lone> im using irssi. how can you make links clickable?
[19:23] <bastid_raZor> RageMachine; and probably best to do that from tty1 .. then shutdown whatever apps manaully in the gui
[19:23] <crdlb> lone: just use a terminal which recognizes links

[19:24] <wirenik> Hey Tech, nice to meet you :)
[19:24] <vvd416> Could anybody help me with colours in TTY (8.04, RV280)? When I switch to TTY1 (2,3,..) from Xserver I see the dark grey font on the black background.

[19:24] <dmi3on> hi all, i have problem with e-geforce 6200TC cant find how to change resolution to 1440x900, and when ubuntu starts i get "ubuntu is running under low resolution mode"
[19:24] <tech> I try to change the resolution and I'm not sure where to look... I run it in VirtualBox on Vista (32 bit).. thank
[19:24] <Vegar> Digg: no, sorry
[19:24] <dmi3on> can some one help me pls to solve this
[19:24] <lone> ok. thanks. what are the shortcuts for copy and paste?
[19:24] <waan> dmi3on, Sounds like you need to install your video drivers
[19:24] <crdlb> dmi3on: how did you install the nvidia driver?
[19:24] <bastid_raZor> RageMachine; stopping gdm with that command will not give anything time to shutdown.. it is the same as alt+ctrl+backspace
[19:24] <Vooloo> can I partition after I installed ubuntu if I want to change it?
[19:24] <jazzkutya> can i add the feature dir_index after creating the ext3 filesystem?
[19:24] <waan> dmi3on, have you checked restricted drivers?
[19:24] <Vi5in> is it the sun-java6-plugin?
[19:25] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: are you using nvidia's binary drivers?
[19:25] <bastid_raZor> RageMachine; well almost the same..
[19:25] <Clint-> bastid_raZor, i like your way also i think im gonna change my script to use that instead
[19:26] <waan> Clint-, have you ever installed from hdd instead cd?
[19:26] <Digg> vegar: lol got it to work now. was (blush) just setting new resolution and clone output in preferences in gnome....
[19:26] <dmi3on> i am new to ubuntu

[19:26] <dmi3on> i have hard  ware drive nvidia accelerator
[19:26] <bogey-> I am having a senior moment. I do not have the firewall installed, I do not have anything setup for hosts.allow and hosts.deny. Yet my box is refusing all connections except from the local subnet.
[19:27] <axenory> has anyone solved the "The playback of this movie requires a audio/x-asf-unknown decoder plugin which is not installed." sound problem?one solved "
[19:27] <tech> anyone???????  How can I change the resolution? thanks
[19:27] <dmi3on> but nvidia x server setting does n't work
[19:27] <crdlb> dmi3on: go to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers
[19:27] <waan> Clint-, I might read some communuty docs and try out an external hdd install instead
[19:27] <brujo_Ba> #Brasil
[19:27] <axenory> tech, you can find that in system > preferences or > administration
[19:27] <MobileMyles> Is there a way to determine when a user was last seen in this channel?  Does chanserv do this?
[19:28] <dmi3on> crblb, and ?
[19:28] <Grobvok> tech System->Preferences->Screen Resolution
[19:28] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: click on the System menu, and then Administration -> Hardware Drivers.  Then tell us if the checkbox for the Nvidia Restricted Driver is checked
[19:28] <Starnestommy> MobileMyles: nickserv does it for registered ysers
[19:28] <dmi3on> crdlb, and ?
[19:28] <wirenik> MobileMyles: not sure - you can maybe try http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/misc/ccosmos.html
[19:28] <crdlb> dmi3on: follow pr0gr4mm3r's more verbose instructions :)
[19:28] <spiritssight> Hi, I want to get a Creative Lab Webcam Live pro (VF0050(a)) setup on my system what do I need to do or install?
[19:28] <tech> Grobvok: Thanks... it goes only up to 800X600  How can I go higher?
[19:28] <dmi3on> pr0gr4mm3r, crdlb, yes it is
[19:28] <axenory> tech, in preferences actually... its called screen resolution
[19:29] <Grobvok> tech: Have you installed the drivers for your video card?
[19:29] <tech> Grobvok: From within Ubuntu... no... any instructions for it?  I'm very new to this
[19:29] <dmi3on> pr0gr4mm3r, when checked or not it doesnt change any think same think happens
[19:30] <Grobvok> tech: System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers
[19:30] <lone> im using nvidia x server settings. it says display is running at 60 hz, even though the pre installed screen resolution says 50 hz
[19:30] <Grobvok> tech: Check the box, wait for it to download and install, then reboot.
[19:30] <bogey-> I am having a senior moment. I do not have the firewall installed, I do not have anything setup for hosts.allow and hosts.deny. Yet my box is refusing all connections except from the local subnet. What should I check to see if it is blocking other subnets?
[19:30] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi: i know...I wanted to know if you have nvidia's x server all installed
[19:30] <lone> so does the display run at 60 hz?
[19:30] <dmi3on> pr0gr4mm3r, after restart i mean
[19:30] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: if that box is checked and is in use, click on System -> Administration -> NVIDIA X Server Settings, and change your resolution settings there
[19:30] <crdlb> lone: yes, the nvidia driver just lies, don't worry about it
[19:30] <Clint-> waan,  i ended up just getting a external dvd drive
[19:31] <dmi3on> pr0gr4mm3r, yes server is installed too, but it doesnt work
[19:31] <waan> Clint-, yeah I will be getting a lenovo one soon
[19:31] <tech> Grobvok: It says: "No propriatery drivers are in use on this system"... Nothing else
[19:31] <dmi3on> pr0gr4mm3r, i think
[19:31] <axenory> has anyone solved the "The playback of this movie requires a audio/x-asf-unknown decoder plugin which is not installed." sound problem?
[19:31] <waan> they are gold
[19:31] <Grimm09> Hello all
[19:31] <pr0gr4mm3r> nvidia's config tool is much better than the one that ships with Ubuntu
[19:31] <lone> it lies under "screen resolution"? yes?
[19:31] <crdlb> lone: the 60 is correct (although it doesn't matter, since LCD monitors do not _have_ a refresh rate)
[19:31] <Grobvok> tech: What video card do you have?
[19:31] <ampex> is there a way for me to find out which compile options were given to the ssh that is included with ubuntu?
[19:32] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: can you access the Nvidia config tool?
[19:32] <lone> crdlb: alright, thanks.
[19:32] <crdlb> lone: nvidia reports 50Hz as a hack for dynamic twinview (it reports 51Hz for the second monitor and so on)
[19:32] <tech> Grobvok:  This is a VM within VirtualBox.  The host has an ATI Mobility Radeon X1400
[19:32] <dmi3on> you mean nvidia x server settings ?
[19:32] <darthbator> is there a way to make apt force a specific version for installation? I just noticed that the latest version of libxine1-bin that I have is from Hardy Security <IP_ADDRESS>-ubuntu3.1 and I want to install the package version from Hardy <IP_ADDRESS>-ubuntu3 I don't have access to synaptic right now only apt and aptitude any help would be most appreciated
[19:33] <lone> its a lcd monitor from a dell vostro 1500 running geforce 8600gt
[19:33] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: yes
[19:33] <Grobvok> tech: oooh, what VM?
[19:33] <dmi3on> when i go there i get: you do not appear to be using the nvidia x driver please edit your x configuration file ....
[19:33] <tech> I installed Ubuntu as a Virtual Machine in VirtualBox which runs ontop of Vista
[19:33] <Grobvok> tech: If it's something other than VirtualBox, I can't help you.
[19:34] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: then the driver is not enabled.  You said the driver was checked in the Restricted Drivers window, correct?
[19:34] <tech> Grobvok: It's VirtualBox
[19:34] <Dexikiix> soo my ./configure isnt working
[19:34] <Dexikiix> i dont remember how i got it to work last time

[19:35] <waan> Dexikiix, not working is pretty vague...
[19:35] <Grobvok> tech: Go to Devices -> Install Guest Additions.
[19:35] <Dexikiix> waan input: ./configure  output: No such file or dir
[19:35] <waan> is there a configure script in your dir?
[19:35] <tech> Grobvok: Ok..I"m there.. a window opened up.. now?
[19:35] <Grobvok> tech: It will download and mount an iso image.
[19:35] <dmi3on> pr0gr4mm3r, its now in use and i get same massage
[19:36] <Dexikiix> waan yes
[19:36] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: that was a quick restart.  Does the Restricted Drivers show the green icon and say "In Use"?
[19:36] <Grobvok> tech: open a terminal and type cd /media
[19:36] <Crimes_101> I have a Dell Poweredge R300 that cannot find the cd rom, the disc boots and gives me ubuntu main menu, 6.06.2 LTS 64-bit

[19:37] <mds_> hi all.   I wonder if I might have a virus on my Ubuntu 07.10.  I had Thunderbird open and all of the sudden all the mails showed (different) Spam content.  The subject line was o.k.  Any ideas what that might be?
[19:37] <Clint-> Crimes_101, that makes no... if it dont find it how does it boot?
[19:37] <tech> Grobvok: Ok... it has CDROM and CDROM0
[19:37] <waan> Dexikiix, what are you trying to configure?
[19:37] <slicky> excuzemi, we cant meat,.. cuz im a vegitarian
[19:37] <Crimes_101> I know this cause it runs the installer but hangs on the finding
[19:37] <Grobvok> tech: type cd cdrom

[19:37] <Crimes_101> of hardware cdrom
[19:37] <gnuskool> g'day
[19:37] <Dexikiix> waan carrier 2.4.3 :p
[19:37] <Crimes_101> makes no sense, its my problem
[19:38] <Crimes_101> its real I assure u
[19:38] <Dexikiix> waan i think its autotools
[19:38] <tech> Grobvok: OK
[19:38] <meoblast001> ok.... im looking to make ircd-hybrid work so that when xchat enters "/nickserv", my server recognises it.... how would i go about doing this?
[19:38] <waan> Dexikiix, thats the error I get when doing ./configure when there is no script. I don't think I can help you with that
[19:38] <Grobvok> tech: then type ls
[19:38] <tech> k
[19:38] <Grobvok> tech: do you see some more files?
[19:38] <tech> yes
[19:38] <Dexikiix> waan its ok unless you know how to install and make sure autotools are all working right
[19:39] <_kilian_> hi
[19:39] <waan> nope
[19:39] <dmi3on> pr0gr4mm3r, now for sure its in use and every think is same
[19:39] <Grobvok> tech: type ./ (no space) then the name of the green file with Linux in it's name than type space and then type all
[19:39] <Crimes_101> I have a Dell Poweredge R300 that cannot find the cd rom, the disc boots and gives me ubuntu main menu, 6.06.2 LTS 64-bit but fails to detect the cd rom when finding hardware. Anyone experienced this?
[19:40] <Starnestommy> meoblast001: I don't think that can be done in the packaged version of hybrid.  You may need to compile a different ircd from source to do that
[19:40] <Grobvok> tech: by space I mean the spacebar
[19:40] <Gustavo> ubuntu in spanish  ?
[19:40] <Starnestommy> !es | Gustavo
[19:40] <dmi3on> pr0gr4mm3r, are you helping me /
[19:40] <dmi3on> ?
[19:40] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: if it's in use, i'm not sure why the config utility would say otherwise
[19:40] <Crimes_101> least u didnt get laughed at
[19:41] <dmi3on> i dont know :(
[19:41] <meoblast001> Starnestommy: i found a work around
[19:41] <Clint-> Crimes_101, is the cd drive a scsi cd drive?
[19:41] <tech> Grobvok: Is says I must run it with admin rights
[19:41] <meoblast001> Starnestommy: type "/msg nickserv identify yourpass" in the connect feild
[19:41] <Crimes_101> lemme look
[19:41] <meoblast001> Starnestommy: it will perform that when connecting
[19:41] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: can you open the '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' file in a text editor?
[19:41] <meoblast001> after connecting rather
[19:41] <Grobvok> tech: then type sudo before the whole thing
[19:41] <dmi3on> NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (latest cards) in use
[19:41] <dmi3on> ok
[19:42] <Grobvok> tech: and enter your password after you press enter
[19:42] <tech> Grobvok: ok, it's installing now

[19:44] <Dexikiix> i got it
[19:44] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: it shows that the nvidia driver is loading.   run 'sudo nvidia-settings' in a terminal and tell me what comes up
[19:44] <Dexikiix> i just had to type "autoconf" to enable that
[19:44] <Dexikiix> then ./configure worked
[19:44] <tech> Grobvok: Thank you so much! everything is good now.... much appreciated
[19:45] <Crimes_101> Clint: It's SATA

[19:47] <Grobvok> Or something like that.
[19:47] <ViperBorg[WinDoz> Grobvok: That'll work on a directory?
[19:47] <Crimes_101> does the new UBUNTU support SATA cdroms?
[19:47] <Clint-> Crimes_101, i am not sure
[19:47] <dmi3on> pr0gr4mm3r, that why o told you for sure :)
[19:48] <Grobvok> ViperBorg[WinDoz: Hold on
[19:48] <Grobvok> ViperBorg[WinDoz: sudo chmod -R a+rw [filename]
[19:48] <Clint-> -R mean recurssive
[19:48] <ape718> Chousuke: any tips? :)
[19:48] <Chousuke> sorry, not too familiar with gigabit networks :/
[19:48] <hateball> Crimes_101: I've had a SATA cdrom since Feisty
[19:48] <ape718> ah
[19:48] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: if you run glxgears in a terminal, what fps does it return?
[19:49] <coin_pan> Hi everybody. A quick question: what's the character that should separate port numbers on the line "Port" in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file ?
[19:49] <ape718> it's just so fustrating having this balling-ass setup with mediocre lan speeds
[19:49] <Chousuke> coin_pan: space I think
[19:49] <ViperBorg[WinDoz> thanks
[19:49] <dmi3on> pr0gr4mm3r, glxgears how do i run this ?
[19:49] <hateball> coin_pan: Putting Port XX on the row beneath works just as well
[19:49] <pr0gr4mm3r> open up a terminal and enter that command
[19:49] <ape718> anyone here have a gigabit lan that does over 40+ megabytes ps ?
[19:49] <dmi3on> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[19:49] <dmi3on> Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
[19:50] <coin_pan> Chousuke: apparently not, I'm told there's "garbage" at the end of the line
[19:50] <Chousuke> hmm :/
[19:50] <hateball> coin_pan: read up...
[19:50] <Cocolite> sorry what can i do whit  glxgears ?
[19:50] <coin_pan> and the garbage is the second port number ;)
[19:50] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: ok...then your driver is not enabled
[19:50] <coin_pan> hateball: cheers
[19:50] <l337ingDisorder> can anyone tell me the ifconfig parameter to show what my default gateway is?
[19:50] <Cocolite> is the first time that i see this
[19:50] <hateball> l337ingDisorder: route
[19:51] <l337ingDisorder> thanks :)
[19:51] <waan> Has anybody successfully installed hardy from a USB drive, or hard disk?
[19:51] <dmi3on> pr0gr4mm3r, how can i send you a print screen ?
[19:51] <coin_pan> thanks everybody
[19:51] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: if it's reporting that error...i don't need one
[19:52] <dmi3on> http://img186.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotzs3.png
[19:52] <dmi3on> pr0gr4mm3r, ok can it be solved ?
[19:53] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: let's try one more thing
[19:53] <dmi3on> ok
[19:54] <ViperBorg[WinDoz> Okay, I was able to delete everything except the actual folder with the user's name. I keep getting permission denied. Any ideas?
[19:54] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: open up a terminal, and type 'sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk'  and install any other packages it needs (just say yes when it prompts).  Then click on the menu System -> System Tools -> EnvyNG.  Click on NVIDIA from the list, and select Apply.  Follow the instructions after that.  You will need to restart when it is done.
[19:54] <ape718> anyone here have a gigabit lan that does over 40+ megabytes ps ?
[19:54] <dmi3on> pr0gr4mm3r, done
[19:55] <Grobvok> ViperBorg[WinDoz: It shouldn't do that if you use sudo.
[19:55] <dmi3on> ok thx
[19:55] <Cocolite> can anyone tell me how a i can configure bind
[19:55] <ViperBorg[WinDoz> I did use sudo... but I'll try again.
[19:55] <dstaley> Is there any way to make a Ubuntu/Xubuntu CD that will install onto the computer automatically with preset information?

[19:57] <bogey-> I am having a senior moment. I do not have the firewall installed, I do not have anything setup for hosts.allow and hosts.deny. Yet my box is refusing all connections except from the local subnet. What should I check to see if it is blocking other subnets?

[20:07] <Dexikiix> that was SO MUCH FASTER
[20:07] <Dexikiix> than the make
[20:07] <Dexikiix> on funpidgen
[20:07] <Dexikiix> OMG has anyone done the tar.gz for funpidgen 2.4.1?
[20:07] <Dexikiix> the make took like 20 minutes
[20:08] <Dexikiix> :(
[20:08] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: well i'm confused...did you happen to see the nvidia logo before the login screen appeared?

[20:08] <dmi3on> no
[20:08] <GleepGlop> Dexikiix: there was a Debian package, did you install that?
[20:08] <hmuller> What renames i2c-core to i2c_core?
[20:09] <Sonderblade> what is /dev/mapper/Ubuntu-root?
[20:09] <Dexikiix> GleepGlop: i didnt do the deb for 2.4.1 but i did the deb for 2.4.3
[20:09] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: sorry, i'm at a loss here as to why the driver isn't loading for you
[20:10] <dmi3on> i can see only window before ubuntu screen is "ubntu is running under low resolution" configure, shutdown, continue this are buttons in window i press continue because configure does not do a think
[20:10] <GleepGlop> Dexikiix:  im trying to install it now . . . .
[20:10] <GleepGlop> 2.4.1 that is
[20:10] <sandkop> how do i install ubuntu in a pendrive... not like livecd, but like a OS runin from the usb?
[20:10] <Dexikiix> GleepGlop: which one?
[20:11] <GleepGlop> Dexikiix:  2.4.1
[20:11] <erUSUL> sandkop: pendrivelinux.com
[20:11] <dmi3on> pr0gr4mm3r, can it be problem with grub
[20:11] <dmi3on> ?
[20:11] <lboken>  dmi3on  are you like  like me using a kvm?
[20:11] <pr0gr4mm3r> dmi3on: doubt it
[20:11] <Vooloo> I found this mac style dock menu once, but I lost it... anyone know about it? ;(
[20:11] <dmi3on> lboken, no i just have to monitors
[20:11] <sandkop> erUSUL, doesnt help... and doesnt work for what im trying to do
[20:11] <phece> is it possible to run mac software in ubuntu?
[20:11] <pr0gr4mm3r> lboken: what could a kvm do?
[20:11] <slayton> phece depends
[20:12] <Dexikiix> GleepGlop: why?
[20:12] <slayton> Vooloo, its called AWN
[20:12] <slayton> !awn
[20:12] <dmi3on> i have connected now to PC were ubuntu 2 monitors does this make problem ?
[20:12] <Dexikiix> GleepGlop: why not .3?
[20:12] <phece> slayton: what do you mean?
[20:12] <GleepGlop> Dexikiix:  dunno, just wanna try the stable version
[20:12] <Vooloo> slayton: is that the only one?
[20:12] <Trinithis> When I run Xmonad (installed by repository) in Ubuntu, it doesn't work properly. Everything becomes the color of my side panels. Any ideas?
[20:12] <lboken> well  kvm is 2 pc one keyboard, screen and mouse and when i start and go on my 2nd pc  during the boot of the  xubuntu or ubuntu graphic management i dont get the good resolution   (800x600)
[20:13] <RageMachine> there is AVN, but there are others too. my fav is avn
[20:13] <Dexikiix> GleepGlop: oh. ok. lol 2.4.3 seems stable to me :) but also doesnt seem any different
[20:13] <RageMachine> awn*
[20:13] <lboken> so i woudl had sayed to try to reboot but stay  your screen on the  ubuntu
[20:13]  * Dexikiix LOVES the text replacement
[20:13] <slayton> phece, some software you should be able to run in linux other software you can't it depends on the libraries upon which the software depends... if they're general gnu/linux libs you shouldn't have a problem... if there are mac specific libs (like cocoa) then you wont
[20:13] <DefunctProcess> Vooloo: no there cairo dock kiba dock kool dock etc.
[20:13] <hmuller> What renames module i2c-core to i2c_core?
[20:13] <MobileMyles> phece: I think virtualbox will run most software if you install a MAC OS on it, but it's pretty limited in terms of taking advantage of your hardware.  I've never run mac software on virtualbox.  Try #virtualbox
[20:13] <scrambledegg> !backports
[20:13] <slayton> phece, pretty much anything with a GUI in mac you can't run
[20:13] <Vooloo> RageMachine: does it make the icons bigger as you swipe over them?
[20:13] <Dexikiix> no longer will i have to dread typing "Comptuer"!!!!1
[20:13] <slayton> Vooloo, its the only dock i've seen in ubuntu
[20:13] <lboken> so that could had been your probleme but it isnt
[20:13] <RageMachine> vooloo, it has many different effects, zoom is one of them.
[20:13] <Vooloo> RageMachine: cool
[20:14] <RageMachine> vooloo, you can set it to bounce or squish etc. so its pretty thorough
[20:14] <DefunctProcess> there are literally 10 or so different docks
[20:14] <dmi3on> lboken, i can so any think its just to option or 480x600 or 600x800
[20:14] <RageMachine> Vooloo, you can join #awn and ask about it if you like
[20:14] <dmi3on> that it
[20:14] <Dexikiix> Comptuer is my typo arch-nemisis
[20:14] <slicky> ha! Made you read!
[20:14] <Dexikiix> nemesis*?
[20:14] <Dexikiix> lmao slicky
[20:14] <lboken> yeah i get exatcly like that that why i tough  you may had the same rouble   butr you dont sicne you dont  have a kvm
[20:15] <phece> MobileMyles, slayton: alright, thanks

[20:17] <jum> hi guys
[20:17] <edmoore> hi all, just installed server. one small thing - the screen display seems to get to the bottom and then start writin g over itself from the top again
[20:17] <kaiwen> BrandonS prob. flash applications on mgyspace
[20:18] <BrandonS> Thats what I thought

[20:18] <kaiwen> BrandonS yep, the issue is known, but it hasn' been fixed yet
[20:18] <Warp4> edmoore, at the console or via ssh?
[20:18] <Trinithis> About every other time I boot Ubuntu 8.04.1 (64bit), my computer freezes on its load screen.
[20:18] <edmoore> Warp4: console
[20:18] <edmoore> have an old crt plugged in to install

[20:18] <edmoore> ssh is fine
[20:18] <l337ingDisorder> so hey here's an odd problem: I just paved my ubuntu and re-installed... before I did that, I had FireFox 3.0.1 and it looked the way it's supposed to - the large Back icon and in general the new ff 3 theme... With this installation, it says I'm running ff 3.0.1 but it looks like ff2
[20:19] <jum> i have a little problem, when i want to open a folder on the windows pc in the network i get a prompt: "Password required", what to do?
[20:19] <l337ingDisorder> It has the functionality of ff3 but it looks like ff2 for some reason
[20:19] <dstaley> What would be the best way to make a silent Ubuntu install?
[20:19] <l337ingDisorder> jum: that's prompting you for your windows login info
[20:19] <kaiwen> jum insert your password for the window's account.
[20:19] <l337ingDisorder> jum: enter the same username/password you'd use to log into the windows desktop
[20:20] <edmoore> another question - where should I put my vimrc file?
[20:20] <[TiZ]> Hey, guys. I'm curious about something. I've chmodded my /usr/share/themes and /usr/share/icons to 777 so I can globally install themes there easily (I prefer not having ugly Synaptic, thanks). I'm curious about something. Since ~/.themes is the user themes folder, if I were to replace it with a link to /usr/share/themes, would the computer end up getting confused?
[20:20] <Warp4> edmoore, home directory is usually where it goes
[20:20] <edmoore> ok, i'll just copy it over
[20:21] <cognitiaclaeves> Is there a way to strip ansi color codes from a log file? (such as in '^[[0;32m^[[1;34m[^[[1;36mhome/svn-repo^[[1;34m]^[[0m')   ( full log file is here:  http://pastebin.ca/1094977 )

[20:21] <jum> l337ingDisorder: okay but i dont know the password so i have to create a new account on the windows pc?
[20:21] <kaiwen> hmm.. hopefully someone can help me, I connected the laptop and PC with a crossover cable, I want the PC to receive internet through the laptop's wireless. So far dhcp between the laptop and PC has been doing swell, the ping is good. But when I start firestarter with internet sharing available the PC is still unable to connect to the internet. I tried the command line way, still no luck, is...
[20:21] <dmi3on_> pls help
[20:21] <kaiwen> ...it prob. because of the configuration?
[20:21] <[TiZ]> Guess I'll find out myself.

[20:26] <AlexMax> I was under the impression that gnash was capable of watching youtube.  I have gnash installed and adobe flash removed, however when i attempt to watch a youtube it doesn't display at all.  I don't want to use swfdec because I don't like the 'click to start' functionality.

[20:33] <ambushtheimp> that's about it on my knowledge of my wireless card
[20:33] <kaiwen> ambushtheimp. I'll give you a quick run on this. Find your windows driver, extract it. Make sure in teh extraction folder there is a file that ends with .inf. If it does, that is good. cd to that direcftory with the .inf then sudo ndiswrapper -i *.inf. After that is down do this sudo depmod -a. Then this sudo modprobe -i ndiswrapper.

[20:43] <Clint-> yes
[20:43] <gary4gar> Riyonuk, yes, with one click
[20:43] <Riyonuk> It's just like a normal ubuntu install then?
[20:43] <kaiwen> dmi3on_ http://paste.ubuntu.com/35188/

[20:43] <Clint-> you can do sudo apt-get install gstreamer*

[20:43] <Clint-> Riyonuk, you can do sudo apt-get install gstreamer*
[20:43] <dmi3on_> ok thx
[20:43] <Clint-> Riyonuk, i think it is moded for the hardware
[20:44] <gary4gar> Riyonuk, buddy, there is a special forum for Ubuntu users on dell, why don't you ask there?
[20:44] <Riyonuk> cool cool :D
[20:44] <kaiwen> Dexikiix look at the pastebin I just did, notice the resolution ? do the same thing for your xorg.conf
[20:44] <kaiwen> Dexikiix http://paste.ubuntu.com/35188/

[20:53] <kaiwen> Dexikiix more kde.
[20:53] <Vooloo> Clint-: got it now, is that all I need? when I move around the windows and it skews and stuff, is that a compiz effect?
[20:53] <gary4gar> trupheenix, Did you tried using restrided divice manager?
[20:53] <Dexikiix> kaiwen: no my default is 1440x900
[20:53] <l337ingDisorder> how do I find my default gateway?
[20:53] <Clint-> Vooloo,  yerp it is

[20:53] <Clint-> Vooloo,  i recomend kiba dock
[20:53] <Clint-> Vooloo,  if you dont have one
[20:54] <mesy4567> wiggles, mount OS
[20:54] <trupheenix> Dexikiix: laptop
[20:54] <kaiwen> dmi3on what does it say after you run it
[20:54] <Dexikiix> trupheenix: then i got no clue sorry :p
[20:54] <trupheenix> Dexikiix: :(
[20:54] <Dexikiix> trupheenix: its easiest if you get a wired cable first, then configure wireless
[20:54] <l337ingDisorder> how do I find my default gateway?
[20:54] <hateball> l337ingDisorder: just type: route
[20:54] <kaiwen> trupheenix do you have the windows wireless driver?
[20:54] <trupheenix> Dexikiix: my router is all setup
[20:54] <trupheenix> kaiwen: no i don't have.
[20:55] <kaiwen> trupheenix find it on google first.
[20:55] <gary4gar> trupheenix, Your wireless device is well suported and should work.
[20:55] <l337ingDisorder> hateball: that doesn't show me the gateway
[20:55] <Dexikiix> kaiwen: when i first installed linux it defaulted me at 1440x900, in gnome i can go into screen res settings and change and it stays, except at login screen but i dont mind that, but KDE is tougher, but its ok i never use KDE much anyway
[20:55] <trupheenix> kaiwen: are you suggesting i use ndiswrapper on an intel wireless?
[20:55] <l337ingDisorder> hateball: <IP_ADDRESS>     *               <IP_ADDRESS>   U     0      0        0 eth0
[20:55] <Dexikiix> trupheenix: are yuo using it now with an ethernet cable?
[20:55] <gary4gar> truckin, i have the same thing, and it just works
[20:55] <l337ingDisorder> hateball: it shows the route as *
[20:55] <trupheenix> gary4gar: no. i'ts not. it's not picking up my network.
[20:55] <kaiwen> trupheenix yes
[20:55] <Dexikiix> trupheenix: lmao that sounds like an accusation
[20:55] <l337ingDisorder> hateball: err rather it shows the gateway as *
[20:55] <hateball> l337ingDisorder: wait a few seconds, default should show up in the bottom
[20:56] <trupheenix> Dexikiix: yes I'm connecting with cable through my wireless router
[20:56] <Dexikiix> ARE YOU SUGGESTING I'M THE TYPE OF PERSON WHO'D USE NDISWRAPPER!?!?
[20:56] <Clint-> LMAFO!
[20:56] <l337ingDisorder> hateball: the gateway for default is 'home'
[20:56] <ikonia> Dexikiix: please calm down
[20:56] <l337ingDisorder> hateball: i'm looking for the address of my router
[20:56] <trupheenix> gary4gar: it's giving a blank ESSID for my router's network.
[20:56] <mesy4567> haha
[20:56] <kaiwen> that's like anti verizon ;)
[20:56] <gary4gar> trupheenix, try sudo iwconfig
[20:56] <hateball> l337ingDisorder: can you ping 'home' ?
[20:56] <gary4gar> and post the output
