[07:36] <graft> um... okay that's not right
[07:36] <SimzI> Where do you have to install fonts to in dapper?
[07:36] <nub3> how do i set a ip address ?
[07:36] <graft> so i'm guessing you're using the pppoe package from ubuntu
[07:37] <nub3> ya
[07:37] <BlueOrange> humn, than that might sugest i still dont have the codecs insatalled properly then? well thats ok for now, as i have other issues. ok, next problem is i dont have any sound. this is a new laptop, so i dont really know anything about it and i did not try sound before installing linux, however i did hear sounds on boot up and under linux i did hear sounds when i pushed a wrong key at some point, but now im not able to hear anything. all
[07:37] <BlueOrange> the obvius sound sliders are turned up.
[07:37] <BlueOrange> ok, ill try VLC too. doesnt really matter what i use as long as it works!
[07:37] <graft> did you run pppoeconf?
[07:37] <misterii> I need /etc/apt/sources.list--help
[07:38] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, not necissarily, mplayer just may come with _more_ codecs, that's all or be configured to accept obscure codecs
[07:38] <nub3> i read it form http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=138
[07:38] <SilentJihad> !pasteit
[07:38] <ubotu> Huh? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, SilentJihad
[07:38] <SilentJihad> whats it called paste it?
[07:38] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, it's "pastebin" ;)
[07:38] <BlueOrange> ok, now on to the sound problem. im not hearing anything, even when i play mp3 or ogg files.
[07:39] <SilentJihad> HAHA
[07:39] <SilentJihad> !pastebin
[07:39] <ubotu> somebody said pastebin was a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar ,
[07:39] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, and try "/msg ubotu <factoid>"
[07:39] <nub3> also other issue is my pppoe connection does not start automatically
[07:39] <graft> nub3: you ran pppoeconf, though
[07:39] <scharnagl> hi, which is the official german ubuntu channel?
[07:39] <SilentJihad> yea I closed it
[07:39] <nub3> i always have to do do sudo pppoeconf
[07:39] <nub3> ya graft
[07:39] <graft> nub3: you can fix that ...
[07:39] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, but the "/msg" doesn't flood the channel, that's all =)
[07:40] <SimzI> Where do I choose MP3 codec for xmms?
[07:40] <SilentJihad> "/msg ubotu <factoid>"
[07:40] <SilentJihad> baa
[07:40] <graft> if i can remember how... um
[07:40] <misterii> -"
[07:40] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, without the quotes and replace <factoid> with something you want to know about, like pastebin for instance
[07:41] <nub3> also add application is Application always gives me an error saying failed to get a exclusive lock
[07:41] <SilentJihad> ahhhhhhh ok
[07:41] <SilentJihad> i get it
[07:41] <nub3> while i dont have apt-get etc runing
[07:41] <SilentJihad> sorry new to IRC as well
[07:41] <SilentJihad> hehe
[07:41] <kyd> hey, im trying to change permissions on a drive but it says it can't because it is read only?
[07:41] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, that's ok, I don't mean to insult you intelligence
[07:41] <BlueOrange> for instance xmms indicates its playing my ogg file, it counts time and shows the sound levels, any sugestion on how to make sure sound is on ?
[07:41] <SilentJihad> ok this is the NEW error i get
[07:41] <SilentJihad> lol
[07:41] <grodius> Hi, if im in hoary do i have to update to breezy before i go to dapper?
[07:42] <nub3> graft:how do i set static ip for eth0?
[07:42] <SilentJihad> dont worry I dont have much intelligence to insult hehe
[07:42] <SilentJihad> lol
[07:42] <QUASAR> grodius, nop
[07:42] <Hexidigital> is dapper stable?
[07:42] <Kyral> grodius: Dapper isn't released yet
[07:42] <Kyral> it will be released June 1st
[07:42] <SilentJihad> Im just happy I have spent more than an hour on linux without the urge to windoze it
[07:42] <rambo3> sombody wants to end up on bash.org
[07:42] <QUASAR> Hexidigital, works well but isn't marked as stable yet
[07:42] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, it will become second nature, just give it time and patience
[07:42] <QUASAR> Hexidigital, still several updates dairly
[07:42] <SilentJihad> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10588
[07:43] <kyd> any ideas? I know I have to change something in the start up script to stop the drive being read only but im not sure :/
[07:43] <TiG4> Im trying to install MOL (Mac on Linux) and whenever I try to get the mol-modules from synaptic or even apt-get they do not appear to be in the repository. Any suggestions?
[07:43] <SilentJihad> Yea, I hope so, I really dont think I can handle one more Blue death screen
[07:43] <rambo3> /etc/mod~/blacklist
[07:43] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, close Update manager or Synaptic
[07:43] <graft> nub3 i don't think you do...
[07:43] <Hexidigital> thanks QUASAR
[07:43] <p01n7> alot of updates today
[07:43] <graft> nub3: why do you want a static IP anyway?
[07:44] <SilentJihad> Linux is awsome I have wanted to swich for years, I have 50 distros but it seems like every time I want to swich there is one or two major bugs I cant live with... eg. No modem, ect...
[07:44] <nub3> Why does Networking not show up in  System>Administraton
[07:44] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, that error means that "apt-get" can't work because it's being used elsewhere, usually due to Synaptic being open
[07:44] <grodius> could someone give me a link to the dapper repos
[07:44] <SilentJihad> ahh yea its open
[07:44] <nub3> graft:with a staic ip i can join the Dc++ local network
[07:44] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, or "dpkg" rather, which is directly related to "apt"
[07:44] <Amaranth> http://archive.ubuntu.com
[07:44] <Amaranth> warty, hoary, breezy, and dapper are all in there
[07:45] <Kyral> !dapper
[07:45] <BlueOrange> tristanmike: still available? all: having trouble getting sound to work, any suggestions ?
[07:45] <ubotu> The next release of Ubuntu is Dapper Drake. Currently this is BETA software - /join #ubuntu+1 for discussion
[07:45] <Amaranth> once dapper is out warty will fall out of there, iirc
[07:45] <graft> nub3: with any IP you can join the local network... why do you need a static one?
[07:45] <jbritz22> !azureus
[07:45] <ubotu> somebody said azureus was a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AzureusHowTo
[07:45] <rambo3> grodius if you want to uppgrade tp dapper just change sources.list
[07:45] <SilentJihad> awsome build-essential is installed
[07:45] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, you can try "sudo alsamixer" in a terminal and see if anything looks down
[07:45] <SilentJihad> Try Mplayer again?
[07:45] <ompaul> Amaranth, even before that
[07:45] <SilentJihad> or should I do something else?
[07:45] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, try to compile? sure
[07:45] <rambo3> !sed
[07:45] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, rambo3
[07:46] <Amaranth> ompaul: true, since dapper is delayed
[07:46] <graft> nub3: anyway, your WAN ip is the one that has to be static, doesn't it?
[07:46] <Amaranth> ompaul: april 20th then?
[07:46] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, but be prepared for errors, you may just get them
[07:46] <grodius> rambo3: change sources.list to what? i need to pate the repos list in there right'?
[07:46] <nub3> graft:it not like that i pppoe gives me a ip 202.xxxx and a static ip would be 10.xx now i have to connect to a ip 10.xx so i can only do it with a static ip for myself
[07:46] <SilentJihad> there it goes
[07:46] <SilentJihad> whoot whoot
[07:46] <rambo3> grodius : sudo sed -ie 's/breezy/dapper/g' /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:46] <SilentJihad> *bows to Tristan
[07:46] <nub3> hmmm WAN=pppoe
[07:47] <ompaul> Amaranth, I am pretty sure thats what Jdub put in a mail
[07:47] <graft> nub3: you're trying to connect to some outside network, or to some internal network of machines within your firewall?
[07:47] <SilentJihad> this is cool because nextime I will remember all this stuff
[07:47] <rambo3> apt-update and dist-upgrade if you want to upgrade else just install packedges that you want and switch back
[07:47] <p01n7> kernel upgrade too :|
[07:47] <nub3> gaft:it a network inside the network with a local ip
[07:47] <SilentJihad> Tristian, what do you think of Ubuntu? I like it so far, I was useing Xandros which was nice but it didnt let me do alot of things
[07:47] <SilentJihad> Knoppix is cool
[07:47] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, yeah, it took me a few times of compiling before my confidence level went up
[07:48] <SilentJihad> hehe
[07:48] <SilentJihad> yea, how long you been at linux?
[07:48] <kyd> How do I take a drove off read only?
[07:48] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, I <3 Ubuntu with all my heart
[07:48] <kyd> *drive
[07:48] <grodius> rambo3: ok thanks, hey what exactly does that command do?
[07:48] <BlueOrange> tristanmike: ok good. "sudo alsamixer" seems to indicate that everything important is up.  master, headphone, and pcm are all up.  the second item, "master m" is down. is this a problem? also im grabing a pair of headphones to check that.
[07:48] <rambo3> changes every breezy word to dapper
[07:48] <rambo3> in sources.list
[07:49] <graft> argh... nub3 you're going to have to be more clear what you're trying to do... you have a DSL connection. your ubuntu box connects to the 'Net through that via PPPoE... now what? you have some other internal machines that you want to be able to talk to? how are they networked?
[07:49] <SilentJihad> really? cool, I was downloading SlackWare someone told me it was awsome, but I really like Ubuntu, I downloaded it because its been the number 1 distro forever... so I figured I had to try it
[07:49] <kyd> fuck this, i get more help in other linux channels
[07:49] <misterii> I don't have deb-lines for multiverse in my sources.list. Where can I find the right one (Finland)? ...and how do I add it?
[07:49] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, that's the great thing about Linux, you could get lost forever trying out distros, there is something for everyone
[07:49] <SilentJihad> yea
[07:50] <misterii> fyrestrtr, I don't have deb-lines for multiverse in my sources.list. Where can I find the right one (Finland)? ...and how do I add it?
[07:50] <SilentJihad> The only reason I HAVE to go to windows now is because I can't use my Yahoo VOIP account here :(
[07:50] <BlueOrange> tristanmike: no sound from headphones either.
[07:50] <Hexidigital> !c compiler
[07:50] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Hexidigital
[07:50] <rambo3> misterii ask ubotu for soruces.list
[07:50] <graft> !gcc
[07:50] <ubotu> somebody said gcc was the GNU project C and C++ compiler.  From the command-line, type "man gcc" for a complete manual on gcc.  You can install gcc with 'sudo apt-get install build-essential'
[07:51] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, so you're saying your getting no sound at all ? from anything ?
[07:51] <misterii>  !sources.list

[07:51] <IamEthos> hey
[07:51] <SilentJihad> the Yahoo Messenger for Linux is old.. Why is it that linux is always on the back burner? Hardware people dont support it, only stupid microsoft, programs don't supoprt it....
[07:51] <IamEthos> I am having some trouble writing to my ext3 partitioned hard drive in Ubuntu live
[07:51] <misterii> rambo3, how?
[07:51] <IamEthos> it's a USB hard drive
[07:51] <IamEthos> can anyone make any suggestions?
[07:51] <graft> SilentJihad: $$$$
[07:51] <Hexidigital> E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)E: Unable to lock the download directory
[07:51] <Hexidigital> any ideas?
[07:51] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, well, that my friend is a conversation for #ubuntu-offtopic, it's a long one
[07:51] <graft> some hardware folks support Linux
[07:51] <SilentJihad> You know I think that Google is going to put out its own version of linux they Goobentu
[07:52] <SilentJihad> lol
[07:52] <tristanmike> Hexidigital, close Synaptic
[07:52] <SilentJihad> for real
[07:52] <graft> Hexidigital: ... yeah that
[07:52] <hid3> Evening everyone. I'm new to ubuntu. What are the major differences between ubuntu and debian?
[07:52] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, google has already said they plan on releasing an OS
[07:52] <Hexidigital> synaptic? command line ?
[07:52] <_jason> hid3: 6-month release cycle, security updates
[07:52] <graft> Google OS? will it be free?
[07:52] <tristanmike> Hexidigital, no, Synaptic Package Manger or Update manger, one of those is using dpkg(apt)
[07:52] <p01n7> better be
[07:52] <linkd> google OS? o0
[07:52] <graft> as in, like speech
[07:52] <nub3> graft:Well its a Broadband conenction which is distributed thru a Lan network.To connect to the Internet i have to dial in.But if i do not want to connect to internet i have LAN (which consists of the users linked by the distributers network for internet).The authentication server which allows me to connect to the internet is on one end of this network
[07:52] <Hexidigital> oh
[07:53] <tristanmike> !off-topic
[07:53] <SilentJihad> really? That would be awsome man, if they could release an actuall OS that would rival MS that would be awsome
[07:53] <ubotu> Did you get hit by a windmill? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, tristanmike
[07:53] <tristanmike> grrr
[07:53] <linkd> SilentJihad: i think its just a rumour and people are getting confused.
[07:53] <SilentJihad> course it would have to seemlessly support all windows formats... and be stupid-simple
[07:53] <BlueOrange> tristanmike: OOPS! yup, linux might be comples, but all problems are ussualy the simple stuff! i turned up the volume from some hard keys on my keyboard ! :) THXS !
[07:53] <Hexidigital> thanks tristanmike
[07:53] <SilentJihad> possiably
[07:53] <Hexidigital> that worked
[07:53] <Turicas> Hello. I want to report a bug in Launchpad. How can I do this?
[07:53] <corvax> ive got no wireless now damn it
[07:53] <corvax> heh
[07:53] <graft> nub3: ah... okay, good... so then how is your LAN set up? is your ubuntu box a router, or is something else the router?
[07:53] <corvax> went to dapper
[07:53] <corvax> rom breezy
[07:53] <_jason> Turicas: use launchpad probably :)
[07:53] <corvax> on laptop
[07:53] <tenmon> do you think Ubuntu should come with WINE by default?
[07:54] <linkd> tenmon: no
[07:54] <graft> tenmon: no, wine is like alpha at best
[07:54] <Turicas> _jason, yes, malone. but wich link? :)
[07:54] <misterii> tenmon, No
[07:54] <corvax> dapper recognized my linksys wpc54 g pcmcia card
[07:54] <tristanmike> linkd, no it's no rumor, but what the OS is, no one knows yet, Google has just said they plan on releasing an OS
[07:54] <ompaul> corvax, go to #ubuntu+1 for all dapper conversations
[07:54] <tenmon> ok
[07:54] <corvax> whoops
[07:54] <gleesond> ok so I wan't to kill my ATI cartd
[07:54] <linkd> tristanmike: where did they say this?
[07:54] <gleesond> because I can't get X to work
[07:54] <gleesond> I did what the ATI wiki told me to do but it didn't fix any thing
[07:54] <ompaul> !enter
[07:54] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
[07:54] <gleesond> could it be that I have the busID wrong in the xorg.conf file
[07:55] <ompaul> FOLKS ^^^
[07:55] <tristanmike> linkd, http://www.kottke.org/04/04/google-operating-system
[07:55] <graft> gleesond: what's your problem?
[07:55] <gleesond> because its something like PCI:1:0:0 but its a agp card
[07:55] <rinke> Hallo
[07:55] <_jason> Turicas: sorry I don't know offhand, just search for launchpad.  There are probably other bugs for it somewhere that you can look at
[07:55] <misterii> grrrrrr
[07:55] <gleesond> graft: the screen locks up as soon as gdm, or kdm try to load
[07:55] <jenda> I need some one on one help with networking (Ubuntu - hub - Ubuntu) and transferring settings from one comp to the other. Anyone, please?
[07:55] <misterii> is there noone here!??!??
[07:55] <nub3> graft:No it consists of different users who are on the same Link of the provider they use Windows PC no one is behind the main router of the ISP
[07:56] <tristanmike> so you're good BlueOrange ?
[07:56] <ompaul> misterii, there are over 600 here
[07:56] <khad> gleesond, where'd you get your drivers at?
[07:56] <gleesond> graft: my friend told me to disable the dri, so I did but now all I get is 640x480
[07:56] <misterii> ompaul, anyone helping me?
[07:56] <ompaul> !patients
[07:56] <ubotu> My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, ompaul
[07:56] <tristanmike> !patience
[07:56] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Please be aware there are a lot of questions, but only maybe few who might know the answer for you. Please be patient. Your attitude may determine their willingness to help you.
[07:56] <ompaul> !patience
[07:56] <gleesond> apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[07:57] <tristanmike> I got your back ompaul ;)
[07:57] <_jason> misterii: are you trying to get multiverse?
[07:57] <ompaul> tristanmike, so you did
[07:57] <ompaul> jenda, what kind of settings?
[07:57] <nub3>  WHy is my eth0 taking a ipv6 ip
[07:57] <nub3> :(
[07:57] <SilentJihad> ahh you were right Tristan! errors!! haha
[07:57] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, it's bound to happen ;)
[07:57] <misterii> _jason, yes.. I got a nice tip to ask from whatever the bots name was... Then I asked how, but no answer
[07:57] <graft> why is ipv6 even IN the stock kernel?
[07:58] <SilentJihad> lol
[07:58] <misterii> I just get more questions, no answers xDDD
[07:58] <ScreaminIke> how do i mount an iso as a CD?
[07:58] <_jason> misterii: do you want to use synaptic or edit manually?
[07:58] <ompaul> graft, it gets used by more people every day
[07:58] <misterii> _jason, manually
[07:58] <jenda> ompaul: first of all, connecting the PCs, to be as permissive as is wise. And then all the basic gnome things (panels, terminal, interface an' all that)
[07:58] <nazty> does regular ubuntu come with Adept?
[07:58] <_jason> misterii: do you still have the default sources.list?
[07:58] <corvax> my wireless card is detected by ubuntu  broadcom 802.11b/g
[07:58] <_jason> nazty: not installed
[07:58] <corvax> its a linksys
[07:58] <graft> ScreaminIke: mount -o loop -t iso9660 whatever.iso /mnt/iso
[07:58] <BlueOrange> tristanmike: Im GREAT! thxs so much ! All ur folks ARE linux !
[07:59] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, one of the most important things to know about compiling is that if your error says "I need blah" you will need the "-dev" version of it. So for instance it says it needs "libabcdefg", you would want "libabcdefg-dev"
[07:59] <corvax> but i couldnt get it to connect
[07:59] <nazty> _jason: download it and compile it i guesS?
[07:59] <misterii> _jason, it's a bit edited, no backup
[07:59] <_jason> nazty: it's in the repositories
[07:59] <corvax> i had ndiswrapper working before
[07:59] <nazty> ok
[07:59] <corvax> i reinstalled
[07:59] <nazty> whats the hot key to bring up run
[07:59] <corvax> but now it doesnt work
[07:59] <nazty> so i can get in a xterm
[07:59] <SilentJihad> !pastahhh ok
[07:59] <ubotu> parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, SilentJihad
[07:59] <_jason> nazty: you may want to try synaptic, adept is for kde I believe?
[07:59] <nazty> yeah
[07:59] <nazty> i was using kubuntu
[07:59] <SilentJihad> howcome when you write me it is in red?
[07:59] <corvax> mt card used to be called  wlan0 but now it shows up aseth0

[08:00] <_jason> !terminal
[08:00] <nazty> adept is for kde :D
[08:00] <nub3> graft: In Application>Network Tools> I see eth0 and ppp0. Eth0 has a ipv6 ip and ppp0 has my netip 221.xxxx

[08:00] <SilentJihad> nice

[08:00] <BlueOrange> a little ity bitty question: using mplayer, when i select "full screen" the video is still small and in the middle of the screen surrounded by black. in totem i can make it expand to the full screen. how do i do this is mplayer? i do not see any option for it.
[08:00] <_jason> misterii: put it on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ please and give me a link
[08:00] <SilentJihad> !pastebin
[08:00] <ubotu> it has been said that pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org - Install webboard for easy pasting from the gnome taskbar ,
[08:01] <graft> nub3: yeah, that's not the way pppoe works
[08:01] <_jason> BlueOrange: use 'xv' as your video output in preferences
[08:01] <corvax> lspci it shows up under
[08:01] <graft> you get assigned a LAN ethernet IP, then you connect via PPP using that
[08:01] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, under "preferences-Video" try using the "xv" video driver
[08:01] <ompaul> misterii, launch synaptic and it will do all that for you just go play with settings
[08:01] <corvax> and i see a refrence to ndiswrapper in
[08:01] <jenda> ompaul, no, that's not what I want to do - that'll do all the apps. I won't have the same apps on both comps. And, first of all, I need to access on from the other - how can I do that? (I have both in front of m running Ubuntu and connectd to the LAN)
[08:01] <corvax> lsmod
[08:02] <nazty> _jason: so  i want to get synaptic?
[08:02] <graft> how do you try to connect to other users, nub3?
[08:02] <_jason> nazty: system > administration > synaptic
[08:02] <SilentJihad> it figures, it gets allllllll the way to the end... and boom, error lol You have to have alot of patience to use linux, but I think when you get used to everything it is much better than using windows...
[08:02] <misterii> ompaul, I wanna do it manually
[08:02] <SilentJihad> tristanmike http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10589
[08:02] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, who says it's the end ?  I was just going to say that NTFS is unwritable, but that's all I know. =p
[08:04] <BlueOrange> where are fonts usualy stored ?
[08:04] <ompaul> misterii, sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list enable lines with universe by removing leading # in the line with #deb .... universe and then type the word multiverse at the end of the line
[08:04] <SilentJihad> tristanmike it is on make install
[08:05] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, don't use make install, use "checkinstall"
[08:05] <SilentJihad> i think i skipped make and just went to make install
[08:05] <SilentJihad> ok
[08:05] <ompaul> jenda, that okay?
[08:05] <nazty> _jason: is there anyone i can get devices off my desktop?
[08:05] <IamEthos> I actually have ubuntu installed on this hard drive as well, but right now I'm running ubuntu live
[08:05] <nazty> cause i got /dev/hda1 on my desktop and i just want to my a link to it
[08:05] <nub3> graft: i cant even ping a local ip
[08:05] <nazty> not the actual device
[08:05] <SilentJihad> tristanmike, use checkinstall first then "Make"
[08:05] <tristanmike> Silencer, you must "./configure" , "make" , "sudo checkinstall"
[08:05] <tenmon> anyone can help with partitioning? I want to resize Ubuntu partition to make it grow and make NTFS smaller
[08:05] <nub3> :*(
[08:05] <SilentJihad> ok
[08:05] <SilentJihad> got ya
[08:06] <graft> nub3: what are you trying to ping?
[08:06] <graft> you're not supposed to use that eth0 IP at all, really
[08:06] <graft> that's only there to facilitate PPPoE
[08:06] <nub3> tenmon:use partition magic
[08:06] <graft> your ppp IP is your WAN ip that the rest of the world can see
[08:06] <BlueOrange> all: anyone point me to where in the file system fonts are generaly stored ?
[08:06] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, people will tell you to use "make install" but "checkinstall" is better because it not only makes Synaptic aware of the program, but it also creates a "deb" in case you need to reinstall on that system later
[08:06] <_jason> !volumes_vis is <reply> To remove devices from displaying on your gnome desktop open Gconf (applications > system tools > configuration editor) and uncheck /apps/nautilus/desktop/volumes_visible
[08:06] <ubotu> okay, _jason
[08:06] <SeAcabo> can anyone handle this problem: "gnu_java_awt_peer_gtk_GtkImage.c: line 572 (createRawData): assertion failed: (data_fid != 0)
[08:06] <SeAcabo> "
[08:06] <_jason> nazty: read above ^
[08:07] <IamEthos> JoetheOdd: any ideas?
[08:07] <tenmon> nub3: I've tried in past times, but apparently Windows does something that makes partition magic errors 9 and 11
[08:07] <Joetheodd> IamEthos: nope.
[08:07] <nub3> graft:yes but i can have a local ip to roght
[08:07] <nub3> right*
[08:07] <nub3> ?
[08:07] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, /usr/share/fonts  maybe?  as well as "~/.fonts"
[08:07] <Joetheodd> tristanmike: Just use checkinstall at the makeinstall step, and it does that stuff? Cool.
[08:07] <nub3> well
[08:07] <SilentJihad> ok cool i will try it
[08:07] <SilentJihad> now
[08:07] <IamEthos> has anyone else run into problems writing to a usb hard drive?
[08:07] <timon> ./quake4.x86: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[08:07] <timon>  what can be wrong i got libsdl1.2-debian installed
[08:07] <tristanmike> Joetheodd, yes
[08:07] <graft> nub3: not that anyone else can see, no
[08:07] <bastian> This is off-topic, but can anyone tell me what font this is (it's an Ubuntu system, so I don't know if it comes with Ubuntu) http://www.gnome-look.org/content/pre1/35202-1.jpg
[08:07] <Joetheodd> tristanmike: Thanks. Never heard of that. <3
[08:08] <graft> nub3: only your WAN ip is open to the rest of the world
[08:08] <administrator_> heyy can someone tell me how to install steam with wine????
[08:08] <tristanmike> Joetheodd, but the deb is not interchangeable between your system and mine, the deb was made pretty much for your configuration
[08:08] <nazty> jason?
[08:08] <nazty> _j: i missed that
[08:08] <nub3> graft:tru to out side lan only WAN is open
[08:08] <_jason> ubotu: tell nazty about volumes_vis
[08:08] <rambo3> administrator_ read wine wiki and ask in #winehq
[08:08] <tristanmike> Joetheodd, it may work, but then again, it may break someone else's system, use with caution outside the box it was made on
[08:08] <nub3> But i am trying a local ip
[08:08] <IamEthos> it says that the owner has read and write priveleges
[08:09] <graft> nub3: but you're not really on a LAN... the only LAN you're on is the one you use to negotiate your DSL connection
[08:09] <IamEthos> and that the owner is root
[08:09] <IamEthos> is that incorrect?
[08:09] <tristanmike> IamEthos, you would use "sudo" in that case
[08:09] <graft> (this is why pppoe sucks)
[08:09] <BlueOrange>  What does "~/.fonts" mean? where is that? i dont see anything at /usr/share/fonts. Im just trying to get rid of mplayer complaining about the font problem every time it launches.
[08:10] <IamEthos> but sudo what?
[08:10] <nub3> graft: please see this http://pastebin.com/614736
[08:10] <IamEthos> can I change the owner of the disk?
[08:10] <SilentJihad> Why is RedHat the most popular distro?  I tried it once and hated it
[08:10] <graft> BlueOrange: ~/ is your home directory
[08:10] <_jason> BlueOrange: install the mplayer-fonts package
[08:10] <IamEthos> can I make it available to any user on this computer?
[08:10] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, sorry the ~ means home directory
[08:10] <SilentJihad> I like the Debian based distros much better
[08:10] <administrator_> anyone tell me how to use wine and install steam with it
[08:10] <nazty> thanks _jason
[08:10] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, just link it to anyfont
[08:11] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, it wont make any difference to be honest
[08:11] <xukun> anybody know if there is something like ActiveSyn for linux ? so I can sync my smartphone
[08:11] <nub3> graft:i am not on a lan but we used the pppoe distribution network to have a lan
[08:11] <graft> nub3: ah... okay i'm getting it now
[08:11] <nub3> and it works that way in windows i just want ed it to work in this too
[08:11] <graft> finally
[08:11] <nub3> :)
[08:12] <nub3> graft:tell me tell me tell me the soution :D
[08:12] <Grathol> Does anyone know what package provides the 'apxs2' apache utility?
[08:13] <nub3> soluton*
[08:13] <SeAcabo> @xukun  gnome-pilot-Applet i use it for my palmdevice
[08:13] <graft> nub3: thinking, reading, hold on
[08:13] <nub3> k
[08:13] <SilentJihad> What are the best packages to install softwhere with Ubuntu? Debian files? or RPM's or complie from source?
[08:13] <_jason> SilentJihad: use synaptic
[08:13] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, best bet is to see if it's available in the repos first and foremost
[08:13] <SilentJihad> Skype for example I want to download Skype
[08:14] <graft> nub3: did you give yourself a static IP in windows before?
[08:14] <tristanmike> !skype
[08:14] <ubotu> somebody said skype was http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeHowto/ Breezy deb: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages/
[08:14] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, there you go  ^^^
[08:14] <nub3> yup
[08:14] <khad> I'm actually using automatrix right now to install a bunch of nice stuff
[08:14] <SilentJihad> hahaha
[08:14] <nub3> In wondows it works for me
[08:14] <tristanmike> !automatix
[08:14] <ubotu> hmm... automatix is unsafe, it overwrites configuration files, and does things like "echo -e 'y\nY\n'" that are considered risky. Please do not use it. There are alternative applications, but it's often best to read the documentation.
[08:14] <graft> nub3: and you did it the same way?
[08:14] <SilentJihad> Ubuntu has some awsome documentation
[08:14] <tristanmike> !tell khad about automatix
[08:14] <nub3> I want to start learning linux that why i ot
[08:14] <nub3> graft :yes
[08:14] <graft> um... okay try this:
[08:14] <khad> I figured it was recommended since it was stickied on the ubuntu forums
[08:15] <nazty> brb
[08:15] <xukun> SeAcabo, My smarthone is running Windows Mobile. Do you think this will work with gnome-pilot-Applet?
[08:15] <graft> sudo ifdown dsl-provider
[08:15] <graft> sudo ifdown eth0
[08:15] <IamEthos> how do I change the owner of a drive to make it available to any user?
[08:15] <Grathol> nobody knows a package that provides apxs2?
[08:15] <nub3> hmm ill disconnenct then?
[08:15] <tristanmike> khad, here's a comparison b/w automatix and easyubuntu   http://nalioth.hostdestroyer.com/comparison.html
[08:16] <SeAcabo> @xukum yes it is designed for any handhelddevice
[08:16] <graft> and then sudo ifup eth0, sudo ifup dsl-provider
[08:16] <_jason> !find apsx2
[08:16] <_jason> oops
[08:16] <_jason> !find apxs2
[08:16] <xukun> SeAcabo, thanks. I will try
[08:17] <administrator_> how to install wine and use it????
[08:17] <ubotu> Ubuntu Search of 'apxs2' (1 shown): (/usr/bin/apxs2) in devel/apache2-prefork-dev,devel/apache2-threaded-dev.
[08:17] <nub3> gratf:  /etc/network/interfaces:31: misplaced option
[08:17] <Grathol> thanks, _jason
[08:17] <nub3> ifdown: couldn't read interfaces file "/etc/network/interfaces"
[08:17] <BlueOrange> tristanmike: Beautifull. Maye the electron g-ds continue smiling upon you.
[08:18] <Grathol> _jason - is there a way to search for binaries without using this IRC channel (using aptitude, apt-get, etc.?)
[08:18] <_jason> Grathol: install apt-file
[08:18] <administrator_> how?
[08:18] <ubotu> Ubuntu Package/File/Desc Search of 'apsx2' returned no results.
[08:18] <tristanmike> BlueOrange,  I can only do what the fantastic people here have done for me =)
[08:18] <nub3> the line 31 is /etc/network/interfaces:31: misplaced option
[08:18] <nub3> ifdown: couldn't read interfaces file "/etc/network/interfaces"
[08:18] <nub3> srry
[08:19] <Hexidigital> !xine
[08:19] <nub3> the line 31 is :    pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up # line maintained by pppoeconf
[08:19] <ubotu> parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Hexidigital
[08:19] <_jason> Grathol: first update it 'sudo apt-file update', then search like so 'apt-file search apsx2'
[08:19] <Hexidigital> !xine download
[08:19] <ubotu> I haven't a clue, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Hexidigital
[08:19] <BlueOrange> tristanmike: if i keep asking this many questions i should be able to help others in no time ! :) (MAYBE:)
[08:19] <Hexidigital> !xine sudo command
[08:19] <Grathol> _jason : thanks much
[08:19] <ubotu> Hexidigital: I give up. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:19] <_jason> Hexidigital: did you enable universe?
[08:19] <Hexidigital> yes
[08:19] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, you'll pick it up in no time :)
[08:19] <administrator_> where is that sudo apt-file
[08:19] <nub3> hmmm brb lemme try removing pppoe
[08:19] <graft> yeah nub3 comment out that stuff for now
[08:19] <Fracture> how is apt-file different from apt-cache ?
[08:19] <_jason> Hexidigital: use synaptic or do: sudo aptitude install xine (or gxine)
[08:19] <nub3> ohh k
[08:19] <vook> nub3, /etc/network/interfaces isn't a script, that shouldn't be there.
[08:19] <SeAcabo> @xukun you will need sync your smartphone with evolution (note that)
[08:19] <yamathan> Hey, guys.
[08:20] <IamEthos> how can I change the properties of a drive to allow user ubuntu to write to it instead of just sudo?
[08:20] <Hexidigital> _jason, i'm trying to find the command
[08:20] <_jason> Fracture: 1) it searches for files 2)it searches things you don't have installed
[08:20] <yamathan> How can I change my sound settings from "headphone" to something else?
[08:20] <_jason> Hexidigital: command for what?
[08:20] <BlueOrange> tristanmike: how do i change the default video player from totem to mplayer, since mplayer is the one i have working for now, and seems to meet my needs fine.
[08:20] <jenda> ompaul: sorry, had a phonecall. Very important, rather long :). Now, I have no clue how to use ssh or sftp to access dirs on my dsktop
[08:20] <Fracture> _jason: doens't apt-cache search things that you don't have installed ?
[08:20] <Hexidigital> _jason, the sudo command line for the xine installation (sudo apt-get .... )
[08:21] <nub3> graft: now it says admin@ubuntu:~$ sudo ifdown dsl-provider
[08:21] <nub3> ifdown: interface dsl-provider not configured
[08:21] <BlueOrange> Anyone else out there a fellow thinkpad linux user ?
[08:21] <SilentJihad> Damnit
[08:21] <graft> nub3: okay that's fine
[08:21] <_jason> Hexidigital: I gave it to you above, sudo aptitude install xine
[08:21] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, hmmm, the only way that comes to mind is right click on the file and select properites-Open With, and select the proggy
[08:21] <graft> keep going
[08:21] <xukun> SeAcabo, I connected the smarthpone with the usb cabel on my laptop.   But apt-file let's you search for which package provides a file.  It's like dpkg -S
[08:21] <tristanmike> _jason, I can't seem to find "xine" as a stand alone package
[08:21] <_jason> !info xine
[08:21] <Fracture> _jason: great :)
[08:22] <nub3> ok
[08:22] <_jason> oh right it's xine-ui <-- Hexidigital
[08:22] <spikeb> hrm
[08:22] <_jason> tristanmike: thanks
[08:22] <graft> nub3: and...?
[08:22] <spikeb> bah xine-ui sucks
[08:22] <graft> did you get a ppp IP address?
[08:22] <administrator_> this says source is not temporary in use
[08:23] <tristanmike> _jason, yeah, np, didn't know where you were going with him there
[08:23] <administrator_> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[08:23] <IamEthos> I think I just encrypted my initramfs modules file
[08:23] <tristanmike> administrator_, close Synaptic or Update Manager
[08:23] <IamEthos> in VIM, I did :X instead of :x
[08:23] <IamEthos> and it asked for a key
[08:23] <yamathan> How do I change my sound settings in KDE?
[08:23] <IamEthos> I pressed enter for the key without supplying anything
[08:24] <IamEthos> so I'm not sure if I encrypted it or not
[08:24] <jenda> Dammit, isn't there a simple way to share directories between two Ubuntu PCs?
[08:24] <yamathan> I know that I can do it in GNOME, but I have very little experience in KDE.
[08:24] <SilentJihad> tristanmike... i made the ./ configure again, and it compiled nicely, when it finished i put "make" and it says "nother to be done for 'all'.
[08:24] <administrator_> it is closed
[08:24] <SilentJihad> thats "nothing to be done for all"
[08:24] <Koobi> vim = <3
[08:24] <llusser> jenda: scp works quite nice
[08:25] <administrator_> now it is installing
[08:25] <IamEthos> never mind, I fixed that
[08:25] <jenda> llusser: is it graphical?
[08:25] <loststar4545> Hello can anyone suggest a game or application worth  checking out?
[08:25] <llusser> can be
[08:26] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, I assume you're using the forums for the compiling proceedure ?
[08:26] <xukun> SeAcabo, ?
[08:26] <csgirl> hello, can someone tell me? I  type sudo mount /dev/sda7/mnt/sda7
[08:26] <csgirl>   but it shows   can't find /dev/sda7/mnt/sda7 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[08:26] <ompaul> jenda, sftp -C username@otherIP
[08:26] <jenda> ompaul: OK will try
[08:26] <_jason> csgirl: you are missing a space after the first sda7
[08:26] <administrator_> WHAT means this command sudo aptitude?
[08:26] <ompaul> jenda, ssh -C username@otherIP
[08:26] <SilentJihad> Forums?
[08:27] <SilentJihad> tristanmike - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10591
[08:27] <_jason> administrator_: it's like apt-get, but better
[08:27] <jenda> ompaul: what's the difference?
[08:27] <kuba> cze
[08:27] <rambo3> you have xtra t there
[08:27] <kuba> hi
[08:27] <misterii> synaptic is so sloooowwww
[08:27] <administrator_> but i so new user that i dont know any commands
[08:27] <_jason> ubotu: tell administrator_ about apt
[08:27] <_jason> ubotu: tell administrator_ about cli
[08:27] <kuba> i have ubuntu!!! u not have it
[08:27] <ompaul> jenda, sftp is a secure ftp and ssh is a secure shell
[08:27] <vook> loststar4545, wesnoth isn't bad, it can kill some time.  Beyond that, check out the emulators (zsnes, xmame, xmess, uae, cedega)  Neverwinter Nights works beautifully on Linux too, a few EA games have linux clients these days.
[08:27] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, "sudo apt-get install checkinstall"
[08:27] <administrator_> do you have somekind of a list where are all important commands
[08:27] <misterii> can I install another distro withing the ubuntu console?
[08:28] <_jason> administrator_: check your private messages from ubotu
[08:28] <ompaul> jenda, I have to run - if you want to leave it to later I'll be back in a couple of hours
[08:28] <Koobi> have any of you had problems updating via apt-get from wine.sourceforge.net ?
[08:28] <jenda> ompaul: OK. Now can I get that to work graphically? (I don't mind using the CLI)... OK, later :)
[08:28] <p01n7> administrator_, i used to keep a text file of notes on commands on my Desktop.. it helped then.
[08:28] <llusser> jenda: you can use eithere graphicaly
[08:29] <SilentJihad> ok, cool I got it now
[08:29] <misterii> SilentJihad, I think 'cause it costs. It has to have a simpler Technical-support
[08:29] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, sorry, I broke the most important rule "Don't Assume"
[08:29] <misterii> SilentJihad, I think 'cause it costs. It has to have a simpler Technical-support
[08:29] <MisterN> hi
[08:29] <SilentJihad> but it still wont let me "make or make install"
[08:29] <SilentJihad> lol
[08:29] <jenda> llusser: will try. so far, sftp and ssh gave me 'connection refused'
[08:29] <BlueOrange> tristanmike: does that go for a whole dvd video disc ?
[08:29] <llusser> jenda: goto Places>Connect To Server
[08:30] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, sorry, refresh my memory
[08:30] <SilentJihad> tristanmike :: no problem... why doesent Ubuntu come pre-installed with all these things I need to download?
[08:30] <llusser> jenda: you probably have to install ssh-server
[08:30] <rambo3> administrator_ debian has a good refrence rad worth knowing : http://people.debian.org/~debacle/refcard/refcard-en-a4.pdf
[08:30] <spikeb> SilentJihad: so it fits on a single cd :)
[08:30] <SilentJihad> ahh i see
[08:30] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, because Ubuntu comes set up for a Desktop usage, and "technically" you don't "need" to compile
[08:31] <SeAcabo> @xukun you have to test where the device is connect (on which port)
[08:31] <SilentJihad> ahhh ok
[08:31] <llusser> !tell jenda ssh
[08:31] <BlueOrange> sorry, it had been awhile! changing default app to launch dvd discs and xvid/divx content.
[08:31] <jenda> llusser: OK, working on it - thanks
[08:31] <administrator_> so can i install that steam.exe with sudo aptitude install steam???
[08:31] <llusser> !tell jenda ssh
[08:31] <SilentJihad> @mplayer command not found :(:(:( im gonna cry for real
[08:31] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, oh, yeah, hmm, don't know, never tried, but I'd assume that you'd want to do that on the ".vob" file, but I don't know
[08:31] <jenda> !tell me about ssh
[08:31] <techrush> hey does anyone know how to disable that black outline animation when i minimize a window in gnome ?
[08:32] <csgirl> _jason: thanks , but it shows   you must specify the filesystem type
[08:32] <csgirl>  how can I do it then
[08:32] <rambo3> why not
[08:32] <nub1> graft: you there
[08:32] <nub1> ?
[08:32] <tristanmike> jenda, instead, try using "/msg ubotu <fact>"
[08:32] <graft> yeh
[08:32] <SeAcabo> @xukun btw don't make it so difficult in most cases it is /dev/USB0 or /dev/USB1
[08:32] <_jason> csgirl: put '-t <filesystem' after 'mount'
[08:32] <_jason> csgirl: put '-t <filesystem>' after 'mount'
[08:32] <nub1> you the man gratf. i got things working the way i wanted
[08:32] <nub1> :)
[08:32] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, "@mplayer" ? what's with the "@"
[08:32] <jenda> tristanmike: it's been a while - I forgot about that, but ubotu promptly reminded me.
[08:32] <graft> cool!
[08:32] <graft> also there's a way to get it to start on boot
[08:32] <nub1> graft:thanks a million
[08:32] <SilentJihad> typp
[08:32] <SilentJihad> typo
[08:32] <_jason> csgirl: ugh that's confusing.  Here is an example: mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /media/hda1
[08:32] <graft> there's some file called /etc/ppp/ppp_on_boot usually
[08:32] <BlueOrange> tristanmike: now, when a dvd video disc is inserted, totem opens it.  Can i change this so mplayer opens it instead ?
[08:33] <graft> or a symlink
[08:33] <nub1> ya i saw that
[08:33] <tristanmike> jenda, sweet, just trying to give my helping hand :) sorry if I insulted you
[08:33] <graft> you just have to link it to yhe correct file
[08:33] <graft> /etc/ppp/dsl-provider or whatnot
[08:33] <nub1> hmm k
[08:33] <Raul654> I'm trying to install emacs. I do: apt-get install emacs and it gives me this error "Package emacs is not available, but is referred to by another package."
[08:33] <graft> also you want to move your auto eth0 line up in your interfaces file so it executes first
[08:33] <[TechGuy] > anyone have any idea off the top of their idea why aptitude would look like its curses info is screwed up? It's missing drawing characters here and there, wrong colors, etc. There's no terminal difference between it and my Debian install (both have TERM=linux).
[08:33] <Raul654> erm, sudo apt-get install emacs
[08:33] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, again, i said I've never tried, but you could won't hurt
[08:34] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, ok, that wont work, try changing the Open With on the "VOB" file
[08:34] <cyphase> wow, Google Finance specifically supports Firefox on linux
[08:34] <BlueOrange> tristanmike: it worked with the divx file, but it doesnt seem to work that way with the whole dvd didc.
[08:34] <Raul654> what does that error indicate?
[08:34] <SilentJihad> wait.... wait.... i think its working.... maybe.....
[08:34] <kingspawn> Raul654: just install it through synaptic
[08:34] <Koobi> Raul1654: apt-cache search emacs shows that the package emacs21 is avaialable
[08:34] <graft> Raul654: apt-get update?
[08:35] <Raul654> graft - already did that
[08:35] <Raul654> kingspawn - ok, let me givce that a try
[08:35] <Raul654> brb
[08:35] <graft> erm... i have an emacs package which points to emacs21 anyway...
[08:35] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, it took me 2 days of intense trouble to compile vlc, so don't feel to bad ;)
[08:35] <SilentJihad> haha
[08:36] <SilentJihad> well maybe it worked now
[08:36] <SilentJihad> i think
[08:36] <SilentJihad> hopefully
[08:36] <vook> TechGuy, it could be caused by the difference in kernels.  You may check to see if there is a difference in boot options between the debian install and the ubuntu one (such as vga=somethingorother).  You may try booting with the vga=789 option (or something like that).
[08:36] <Koobi> do any of you use bitchx?
[08:36] <graft> i used to
[08:36] <graft> irssi now
[08:36] <Koobi> is irssi good?
[08:36] <graft> yeah
[08:36] <nub1> graft ya i see a dsl-provider file
[08:36] <Koobi> i cant copy/paste to/from bitchx
[08:36] <[TechGuy] > vook: Noted. I'll check in a few minutes. I hosed my upgrade. Didn't give /boot enough space. Oops. :D
[08:36] <graft> irssi has copy/paste
[08:37] <Raul654> emacs doesn't come up in synaptic
[08:37] <Koobi> i'll try that now then...thought about switching to xchat but i'll give irssi a try
[08:37] <Raul654> I manually checked the category it could concievably be in, and searched for it
[08:37] <SilentJihad> Tristanmike... I moved an MP3 from my external HD to my UBN2 desktop and it has a lock on it, wont let me play it
[08:37] <Koobi> Raul1654, try emacs21
[08:37] <SilentJihad> this is normal?
[08:37] <xukun> SeAcabo, How do I see which usb port its connected?
[08:37] <graft> Koobi: chatzilla is decent too...
[08:38] <Koobi> graft: that would mean i would have to have mozilla open, right?
[08:38] <Raul654> koobi - that seems to have done the trick
[08:38] <graft> Koobi: yeah...
[08:38] <Raul654> why emacs21 and not just emacs?
[08:38] <graft> emacs just points to emacs21 anyway
[08:38] <Koobi> i'll stick to irssi then :)
[08:38] <Raul654> graft - not for me
[08:38] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, it happens, I think because the external hd is perhaps "root" ? a simple "chmod 777" on the file should remedy that
[08:38] <nub1> graft:http://pastebin.com/614808
[08:38] <Koobi> maybe it's your sources.list Rahul?
[08:39] <graft> Raul654: what's your mirror?
[08:39] <SilentJihad> yea I got it :)
[08:39] <fbtab> hi all
[08:39] <SilentJihad> now, lets test Mplayer!!
[08:39] <Raul654> this is an almost-out of the box installation
[08:39] <Koobi> emacs is probably in the native ubuntu lists
[08:39] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, see, you don't need my help =)
[08:39] <nub1> thats my vi /etc/ppp/pppoe_on_boot
[08:39] <nub1> file
[08:39] <graft> nub1: ah hm... i guess that oughta work
[08:39] <nub1> hmmm
[08:40] <nub1> i hasent till now
[08:40] <SilentJihad> hehe
[08:40] <SilentJihad> of course it dosent work
[08:40] <SilentJihad> naw that would be to easy!
[08:40] <SilentJihad> lol
[08:40] <graft> SilentJihad: hah, you're compiling MPlayer?
[08:40] <xukun> How can I see which usb port my smartphone is connected to?
[08:40] <SilentJihad> yea
[08:40] <SilentJihad> GRAFT
[08:40] <SilentJihad> trying to anyhow
[08:41] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, btw, why _are_ you compiling, what does the repo version no do for you?
[08:41] <graft> ah... i've done that a bunch... works okay usually
[08:41] <nub1> graft:what change do i make in interfaces file?
[08:41] <SilentJihad> no, I just thoguht I needed some practice, I figured i had to learn some day
[08:41] <Koobi> i've found that mplayer-nogui works significantly faster than the gui versions
[08:41] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, oh, just curious, that's all
[08:41] <SilentJihad> repo is like RPM file?
[08:42] <graft> nub1: um... well keep that line commented out and just move your auto eth0 line up above the 'iface eth0' line
[08:42] <[TechGuy] > It's possible to put /boot in a RAID1 software RAID mirror, right? Just not RAID0 striping?
[08:42] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, no, repos are where all the ubuntu files are kept
[08:42] <_jason> SilentJihad: did you 'sudo apt-get build-dep mplayer-386'
[08:42] <SilentJihad> oh yea
[08:42] <SilentJihad> naw i downloaded it from the Mplayer website
[08:42] <ice> anyone user phpmyadmin in here
[08:42] <deizi> i'm willing to try kde.. what to get from synaptic?
[08:42] <Koobi> ice: yeah i do
[08:42] <graft> building it yourself might get you some speed, anyway
[08:42] <ice> I used synaptic do get it
[08:42] <metalhedd> ice I do
[08:42] <ice> now how do I start it
[08:42] <graft> deizi: install kubuntu-desktop
[08:42] <_jason> SilentJihad: that command installs the dependencies you need to build the repo version (which are usually what you need to build the newer source too)
[08:42] <SilentJihad> Tristanmike ::: this is my newest error hehe but hey! at least it seems to be installed
[08:43] <SilentJihad> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10592
[08:43] <Koobi> oice : do you have apache installed?
[08:43] <Raul654> anyway, thanks everyone for helping solve my problem :)
[08:43] <ice> yes
[08:43] <ice> and php
[08:43] <Koobi> ice: then restart apache and you should be able to access it via http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ or something similar
[08:43] <ice> so package is good then
[08:43] <ice> don't have to do anything to it
[08:44] <graft> SilentJihad: how old is your config file?
[08:44] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, hmm, maybe all you need to do is find that config file and change "fontconfig=yes" to "=no"
[08:44] <Koobi> ice: not unless its something specific, it should work fine with the default configs
[08:44] <SilentJihad> i dunno i just downloaded it today
[08:44] <ice> sweet
[08:44] <ice> thx
[08:44] <Koobi> np
[08:44] <nub1> graft:done thanks for the help
[08:44] <nub1> :)
[08:44] <SilentJihad> oh ok
[08:44] <SilentJihad> makes sence
[08:45] <SilentJihad> can I search for it?
[08:45] <SilentJihad> sorry I know I gotta be a pain by now!
[08:45] <graft> when you compiled where'd you tell it to look for config files, SilentJihad?
[08:45] <ice> hey thx alot started right up
[08:45] <graft> nub1: np
[08:45] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, try checking ~./mplayer
[08:45] <Koobi> graft: my repo's seem to show development versions of irssi. but theres a irssi-text version avaialable which i would prefer but does it allow copy/pasting?
[08:45] <nub1> Well also when i try to start add application i get a error Unable to get exclusive lock
[08:45] <nub1> why so?
[08:45] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, and not at all :)
[08:46] <graft> Koobi: um... what're you running? 5.10?
[08:46] <Koobi> yeah
[08:46] <Koobi> Breezy
[08:46] <tristanmike> nub1, you have something open, either Synaptic Package Manager or Update Manager, or something that's using dpkg
[08:46] <graft> hrm...
[08:46] <nub1> and how do i boowse my files in graphical mode
[08:46] <BlueOrange> tristanmike: ok, im not going to worry about the auto launch dvd thing. things are working great now, THANKS so much for all ur help, and other too!
[08:46] <yamathan> How can I change my sound settings?
[08:46] <tristanmike> nub1, use Nautilus
[08:46] <graft> what's the version of irssi in Breezy?
[08:46] <ice> umm now I need more help
[08:46] <jenda> llusser: I'm having trouble, no matter what I try. I can't find anything in apt called eithere, following the ubuntuguide just gives me a "wrong option or fs type" when mounting, and an access denied with Samba.
[08:46] <nub1> tristanmike:no i just rebooted my stystem
[08:46] <csgirl> msg NickServ IDENTIFY <cici>
[08:47] <djp> hi. can anyone help me getting a digital camera to recognised? i'm running xfce4, but i cannot see the camera? it used to mount automagically under gnome, but i am using a lesser spec pc and therefore, xfce4. the camera is a mass storage (usb) device.
[08:47] <tristanmike> graft,  0.8.9
[08:47] <korhalf> dapper april 15th correct?
[08:47] <nub1> whats nautlis?
[08:47] <graft> ah... that oughta be just fine, Koobi
[08:47] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, did you try changing the "Open With" on the "Vob" file ?
[08:47] <eowhite> who are you
[08:47] <SeAcabo> @xukun do you speak german
[08:47] <tristanmike> nub1, it's the file browser :P
[08:47] <Koobi> graft: irssi-text is fine?
[08:47] <lunari> Hello
[08:47] <graft> no, irssi
[08:47] <ice> when logging in to phpmyadmin its my ubuntu user and pass right
[08:47] <SilentJihad> how do you use the search?
[08:48] <nub1> tristanmike:where how do i get it
[08:48] <Koobi> graft: ok, i'll install the dev version then
[08:48] <SilentJihad> KDE has a run and a search button
[08:48] <graft> irssi-text is probably a dummy package anyway
[08:48] <tristanmike> nub1, Places-Home
[08:48] <Koobi> ice:  your username should be root by default and password is probably nothing
[08:48] <SeAcabo> @xukun it's quite a lot of stuff and i only found a german hwto
[08:48] <ice> k thx
[08:48] <llusser> did you install ssh-server
[08:48] <Koobi> ok, thanks graft
[08:48] <tristanmike> SilentJihad, Places->Search for Files
[08:48] <Koobi> no prob, ice
[08:48] <nub1> tristanmike:No hoe only desktop
[08:48] <nub1> Home*
[08:48] <mwe> is it possible to change the language for gdm without changing the global LANGUAGE variable?
[08:48] <lunari> I installed ubuntu warty 4.10 on an older system because it uses XFree86 because it's video card isn't supported by xorg. During install I updated warty and x doesn't load, the screen just goes blank and it sits there.
[08:49] <tristanmike> nub1, I'm sorry, I don't follow
[08:49] <ice> #2002 - The server is not responding (or the local MySQL server's socket is not correctly configured)
[08:49] <tristanmike> nub1, I follow now, do you have panels at the top and bottom ?
[08:49] <lunari> any ideas?
[08:49] <[TechGuy] > is mysql running?
[08:49] <nub1> Well i places i only see desktop and when i click it it says Cannot display location 'file:///home/admin/Desktop'
[08:49] <llusser> jenda: did you install openssh-server on both machines ?
[08:49] <ice> should be whats the command to start
[08:49] <SilentJihad> wow I have NO idea how to find this config file, it dosent even give me the name
[08:49] <ice> it
[08:49] <tristanmike> nub1, that doesn't sound right
[08:50] <Koobi> ice: you have to have mysql installed for phpmyadmin...but i imagine it would be a dependancy that would automatically be installed iwth phpmyadmin...
[08:50] <SeAcabo> @xukun whatever you will need following packages: multisync libmultisync-plugin-evolution synce-multisync-plugin
[08:50] <jenda> llusser: not yet, in fact, I'm doing that right now. I was trying the other three methods i mentioned above.
[08:50] <nub1> tristanmike:i have a panel
[08:50] <ice> yeah I have mysql
[08:50] <tristanmike> nub1, did you delete your home folder by accident
[08:50] <[TechGuy] > Koobi: Not necessarily. phpMyAdmin could be on a different server than the database server
[08:50] <richard> how can i start lexmark Z617?
[08:50] <p01n7> lol
[08:50] <Koobi> ice: if you installed mysql as well via apt/synaptic, restarting apache should start mysqld for you
[08:50] <p01n7> what a mistake that would be
[08:50] <nub1> tristanmike:I actually have Ubuntu installed only 3 hours back thats all
[08:50] <SeAcabo> @xukun install all the packages wit apt-get (i hope you already have a working kernel for this usecase)
[08:51] <nub1> My first home linux :)
[08:51] <tristanmike> nub1, did you do an "Advance" or "Server" install ?
[08:51] <Koobi> [TechGuy] : ah, im assuming a typical scenario
[08:51] <nub1> hmmm i have no idea i did the easiest install
[08:51] <nub1> i guess
[08:51] <lunari> I installed ubuntu warty 4.10 on an older system because it uses XFree86 because it's video card isn't supported by xorg. During install I updated warty and x doesn't load, the screen just goes blank and it sits there.
[08:51] <lunari> any ideas?
[08:51] <BlueOrange> tristanmike: yes, and when i click on a vob file it does indeed open mplayer, but mplayer doesnt open automaticly when i insert the dvd, the way it did with totem.  actually totem doesnt open now either, which is just fine. there must be some other little program that when it saw a dvd video disc mounted, it ran totem.
[08:51] <Enthusiast78> nub1: The 'hit Enter' install? :)
[08:52] <nub1> lol ya
[08:52] <tristanmike> BlueOrange, right, I wasn't sure if that would work
[08:52] <nub1> :)
[08:52] <SeAcabo> @xukun find out on which serial port your smartphone is with the command: pilot-link
[08:52] <Koobi> lunari, would you happen to have a backup of your previous XF86Free config file?
[08:52] <BlueOrange> arent there any other ibm thinkpad users in here ?
[08:52] <llusser> jenda: when you get openssh installed then  Places->connect To Server
[08:52] <lunari> Koobi: No, I just installed it
[08:52] <SeAcabo> @xukun u will need the package pilot-link
[08:52] <nub1> I am brand new moron in linux
[08:52] <nub1> :D
[08:52] <Master_Shake_57> Hey I have a question.
[08:52] <ubuntu> hey guys, how do i delete my ubuntu partition. i only have 1 hd and i want to get rid of ubuntu on it.
[08:52] <nub1> 8-)
[08:53] <richard> Which driver can i use for lexmark z617?
[08:53] <BlueOrange> tristanmike: yea, i wont worry about that one for now! iver very happy how thigs are working, im loggint off now, thxs again.
[08:53] <Master_Shake_57> How do I change the keymap to Dvorak.
[08:53] <ScreaminIke> how do i use bochs to try to boot my live cd INSIDE ubuntu?
[08:53] <[TechGuy] > Hrm... Breezy Server's installer seems to have a bug with MD support. Constantly wants to refer to /dev/md/1p1 (for instance)
[08:53] <Koobi> lunari, ...this is a messy work around, but you could use the live CD if you have one and try boot to ubuntu, backup your XF86Free file and try to mimic your VGA configs in the new xorg.conf file
[08:53] <crimsun> Master_Shake_57: console or X Window System?
[08:53] <ScreaminIke> master_Shake_57 : system>preferences>keyboard
[08:53] <Master_Shake_57> crimsun, Console.
[08:53] <SeAcabo> just wirte the adress pilot-link gives you in your configuration and everything is fine ;)
[08:53] <ScreaminIke> (i'm walking you through x...)
[08:54] <nub1> I cant browse the files :*(
[08:54] <jenda> llusser: OK. is the 'server' just the IP, or the username@IP
[08:54] <ScreaminIke> hrm. i don't know console.
[08:54] <crimsun> Master_Shake_57: sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-data
[08:54] <DarthShrine> In the 5.10 LivecCD, my "Intel Corp. 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 03)" was working just fine. I installed from the LiveCD, and now my sound will not work, and isn't detected.
[08:54] <lunari> Koobi: so get a live cd for 4.10 warty?
[08:54] <crimsun> DarthShrine: live cd of ...?
[08:54] <llusser> jenda: the server is just the ip
[08:54] <SeAcabo> @xukun i found it at http://www.galileocomputing.de/openbook/ubuntu/ubuntu_4_007.htm if u speak german u will be fine with this howto
[08:54] <crimsun> DarthShrine: dapper flight 5?
[08:54] <llusser> jenda: service type is SSH
[08:54] <jenda> llusser: got it! thanks a bunch.
[08:55] <Koobi> lunari, i guess...a better approach would be to reconfigure your X but i dont know the command...perhaps someone else can help you, or search the forums. sorry
[08:55] <ice> apachetcl -k graceful righ t
[08:55] <richard> someone who help me to install lexmark z617?
[08:55] <eowhite> french?
[08:55] <ScreaminIke> has anyone here tried bochs who could help me run it in ubuntu?
[08:55] <GTroy> hmmm I keep getting 'your soundcard is configured properly etc. etc.
[08:55] <GTroy> or please check that
[08:55] <bsdfox> DarthShrine, did you try loading the module?
[08:55] <lunari> Koobi: Okay, thanks.. oh also, when I type in startx in the single user mode, it can't find it, doesn't know the command
[08:55] <Koobi> ice, yeah, but i think you have to give the full path to apachectl, depends if that path to your apache is in $PATH
[08:55] <DarthShrine> crimsun, 5.10....
[08:55] <yamathan> I think I have my sound set for headphone use, but now I have speakers.
[08:55] <DarthShrine> bsdfox, Nope.
[08:56] <Nickgarvey> GTroy, is someting else using the sound?
[08:56] <bsdfox> might be a good place to start..
[08:56] <yamathan> How can I change my sound settings to reflect that I have speakers?
[08:56] <GTroy> nick: nope
[08:56] <ice> hmm its in usr/sbin
[08:56] <Overand> lunari: why would you want to run x in single user mode?
[08:56] <ice> I'M in that dir and nothing works
[08:56] <ice> hmm
[08:56] <Koobi> lunari, it sounds like you dont have X installed at that point. did you try man -k startx?
[08:56] <GTroy> Nickgarvey: I made sure of that
[08:56] <bsdfox> darthshrine: sudo modprobe snd_intel8x0
[08:56] <Nickgarvey> GTroy, try cranking it, one time when I first used linux it was playing reallllly quietly and needed some tweaking, but it let me know that it was detected
[08:57] <lunari> Overand: Because normal startup leaves me with just a black screen
[08:57] <RAWRZilla> hey guys, how do i delete my ubuntu partition. i only have 1 hd and i want to get rid of ubuntu on it.
[08:57] <eowhite> hi
[08:57] <lunari> Koobi: Okay, let me try that
[08:57] <GTroy> Nickgarvey: no, can't play the media from xmms
[08:57] <mwe> can you change the language for gdm without changing the default system language?
[08:57] <jg4200> Why am I getting the error changing permissions of `hda5': Read-only file system
[08:57] <bsdfox> Rawplayer: just do it when you install the other OS
[08:57] <GTroy> Nickgarvey: sound is all the way up
[08:57] <Mabus06> Is there like, something similar to nautilus but tab based?
[08:57] <nub1> Add application and Synaptic package manager are different?
[08:57] <DarthShrine> bsdfox, Cool, no errors.
[08:57] <bon_> tvcaaard problems - i am trying to get my tv card working with kedtv its pluged vai rf cable to sky box in the other room as instructed by the sky website to my computer tvcard rf in it finds the canel but there is only a green screen and sometimes it crashes, locksup - paste bin of system log : http://pastebin.com/614830
[08:57] <Nickgarvey> GTroy, mm not sure, is your computer very new?
[08:57] <Koobi> ice, even after apachectl -k gradceful, your mysql daemon doesnt work?
[08:57] <[TechGuy] > jg4200: Exactly what it says. It's read-only. :P
[08:57] <bsdfox> DarthShrine, you might need to run alsamixer to unmute the channels
[08:57] <GTroy> no, I've had 5.10 about 7 months
[08:58] <DarthShrine> bsdfox, Can
[08:58] <Nickgarvey> and works on the live cd
[08:58] <Nickgarvey> !sound
[08:58] <ubotu> methinks sound is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[08:58] <DarthShrine> bsdfox, Can't run it*
[08:58] <Nickgarvey> try that GTroy ?
[08:58] <GTroy> will do
[08:58] <[TechGuy] > jg4200: Sometimes filesystems go read-only when they detect errors on themselves
[08:58] <bsdfox> does sound work?
[08:58] <ice> I got it now
[08:58] <jg4200> TechGuy: So what do I need to do to change the permissions
[08:58] <[TechGuy] > Koobi: Starting Apache starts MySQL? Err... Must be an Ubuntu thing
[08:59] <lunari> Just with xorg supported the card in that computer, so I could just run 5.10 lol
[08:59] <bsdfox> php is probably doing it techguy
[08:59] <[TechGuy] > jg4200: Remount the filesystem read-write.
[08:59] <metalhedd> can anyone suggest a cheap video card that will outperform my GF2MX ? like truly cheap
[08:59] <ScreaminIke> has anyone here tried bochs who could help me run it in ubuntu?
[08:59] <bsdfox> metalhedd: geforce 6200
[08:59] <lunari> Koobi: man -k startx says, startx: nothing appropriate
[09:00] <DarthShrine> bsdfox, Nope
[09:00] <jg4200> TechGuy: How do I do that. lol im new to this
[09:00] <Nickgarvey> jg4200, man mount
[09:00] <richard> heyyy anyone can help me to install lexmark z617?
[09:00] <DarthShrine> Very strange that it worked in the LiveCD though...
[09:00] <bon_> tvcaaard problems - i am trying to get my tv card working with kedtv its pluged vai rf cable to sky box in the other room as instructed by the sky website to my computer tvcard rf in it finds the canel but there is only a green screen and sometimes it crashes, locksup - paste bin of system log : http://pastebin.com/614830
[09:00] <yamathan> !headphone
[09:00] <[TechGuy] > I honestly forget the specifics. See the manpage. It's something like mount -o rw /dev/hda5
[09:00] <ubotu> yamathan: No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[09:00] <bsdfox> darth: run dmesg|grep ICH
[09:00] <Koobi> lunari, sounds like you don't have X installed :/
[09:00] <jg4200> TechGuy: OK thanks.
[09:01] <[TechGuy] > Though I'd fsck it to see why it went read-only in the first place. Maybe something in the kernel log or system logs
[09:01] <lunari> Koobi: is there an apt-get for it?
[09:01] <jenda> Is there a way to get 3D accell (as with nVidia or ATI) when there's just an integrated graphics device?
[09:01] <yamathan> aRts won't work in KDE.
[09:01] <lunari> Koobi: also do you think letting warty update itself during install might have broke it?
[09:01] <yamathan> It's screeching at me to check my installation.
[09:01] <Koobi> lunari, i cant be sure but i think it's xserver-xorg-core
[09:01] <yamathan> What's going on?
[09:01] <ramza3> is update / upgrade normally pretty safe
[09:01] <bsdfox> darth: arts isn't very good
[09:02] <bsdfox> er
[09:02] <jg4200> TechGuy: I tried typing  mount -o rw /dev/hda5 and it says I have an error in my fstab
[09:02] <yamathan> Yeah, but I need to find SOMETHING to alter these sound settings.
[09:02] <bsdfox> darth: your sound is probably working, but muted..
[09:02] <DarthShrine> bsdfox, Nothing
[09:02] <Koobi> i cant imagine how updating would uninstall X...without prompting your first, at least
[09:02] <ice> grr what is the mysql conf file
[09:02] <bsdfox> darth: run synaptic and install alsa utils
[09:02] <DarthShrine> Will do.
[09:02] <bsdfox> then run sudo alsamixer && sudo alsactl store
[09:02] <bon_> can anyone help with my tvcaaard problem http://pastebin.com/614830
[09:02] <yamathan> bsdfox:  The computer doesn't know I even have a subwoofer right now.
[09:02] <ice> can't log in to mysql
[09:02] <ice> I mean phpmyadmin
[09:02] <bsdfox> yamathan: that's not arts
[09:02] <metalhedd> bsdfox: thanks
[09:03] <yamathan> bsdfox:  It's fine with headphones when I tell it I have headphones, but right now it's startin' to peeve me off.
[09:03] <[TechGuy] > ice: man mysqladmin
[09:03] <lunari> Koobi: hmm, didn't come up with anything.. I just wish xorg supported the Geforce 4 MX 440 SE PCI in that system, so I could just run 5.10 breezy
[09:03] <[TechGuy] > Give MySQL's root account a password
[09:03] <yamathan> bsdfox:  I set it at startup and now I can't find it.
[09:03] <kapputu> ubuntu comes with a command-line IRC tool? This is awesome
[09:03] <pauldaoust> okay, this causes me no end of fury.  I'm using Dapper with XGL/Compiz. That's a pretty serious bug, if it is a bug. Shift-Enter gets pressed a lot when you're editing text.
[09:03] <DarthShrine> bsdfox, alsamixer works as root.
[09:03] <lunari> Koobi: and not have to try to get older ubuntu releases to run lol
[09:03] <bsdfox> metalhedd: they are surprisingly fast, and support pixel shader 3.0
[09:04] <bsdfox> darth: oh good.. then hit space bar to unmute and the up arrow to raise volume on the main and pcm channels
[09:04] <Koobi> hopefully dapper will support more h/w
[09:04] <bsdfox> lunari, xorg most definately supports that card
[09:04] <pauldaoust> Hm, I guess I really am the only one who has that problem.
[09:04] <bsdfox> kapputu: bitchx?
[09:05] <lunari> bsdfox: Really?  Shift-Enter: soft carriage return, or kill your X session? how about both?\
[09:05] <bon_> can anyone help with my tvcaaard problem http://pastebin.com/614860
[09:05] <metalhedd> bsdfox: Yeah, my gf2mx has served me well in the 5-ish years I've had it, but i think I could use a little more power for playing some newer games
[09:06] <DarthShrine> bsdfox, Still seems not to work.
[09:06] <bsdfox> metalhedd: what kinda games are you thinking about
[09:06] <kapputu> bsdfox: ?? I don't get you
[09:06] <bsdfox> DarthShrine, was it muted?
[09:06] <[TechGuy] > Gah... Can't /boot be on a RAID1 array? LILO refuses to install to it
[09:06] <lunari> bsdfox: using the nv or the nvidia driver, either or, it would give an error saying no screens detected or something..
[09:06] <DarthShrine> bsdfox, Nope
[09:06] <bsdfox> kapputu, it's a CLI IRC client
[09:06] <Koobi> bsdfox, which BSD do you use?
[09:06] <bsdfox> DarthShrine, dunno
[09:06] <bsdfox> Koobi, freebsd
[09:06] <bon_> can anyone help with my tvcaaard problem http://pastebin.com/614860
[09:06] <corto_maltese> hi
[09:06] <metalhedd> bsdfox: I dunno yet, whatever I can get running under cedega.  I'm not too big on FPS games, but most other genres I like.
[09:06] <Overand> bsdfox: managing enough threads of conversation at once?
[09:06] <metalhedd> bsdfox: any suggestions?
[09:07] <DarthShrine> bsdfox, Oh...:(
[09:07] <_davexus_> Hello, how can I play quicktime videos on firefox with mplayer by default? By default, firefox opens totem, which does nothing
[09:07] <bsdfox> lunari, misconfigured xorg.conf then
[09:07] <kapputu> what's the package name for Xfce?
[09:07] <Koobi> ah, i tried to get it on GRUB the other day...had a few problems  but managed to fix it but now it seems to have issues mounting root :/
[09:07] <bsdfox> metalhedd, cedega has awful performance
[09:07] <kapputu> also how do I add extra repositories? I'm using Breezy
[09:07] <lunari> bsdfox: Okay, let me install breezy again
[09:07] <fbtab> hi all
[09:07] <_jason> _davexus_: mplayer plug-in with w32codecs
[09:07] <metalhedd> bsdfox: I find it works just dandy for the few games I've played on it... and it beats installing windows. :)
[09:07] <_jason> ubotu: tell _davexus_ about mplayer
[09:07] <_jason> ubotu: tell _davexus_ about w32codecs
[09:07] <bsdfox> like.. I've set it up on my gentoo/a64 3200+ (@2.5ghz)/2gbram/gf6800 system and I get like 10-30fps in CS:S
[09:07] <fbtab> anyone using user mode linux on ubuntu being the host OS ?
[09:07] <_davexus_> 've already instamplayer installed
[09:08] <_davexus_> I already have mplayer installed
[09:08] <_davexus_> and w32 codecs
[09:08] <_jason> _davexus_: how about the plugin?
[09:08] <_davexus_> also installed
[09:08] <_jason> _davexus_: so what is playing quicktime now?
[09:08] <bsdfox> metalhedd, but yeah a 6200 will be a huge upgrade over that old card
[09:08] <pauldaoust> _davexus_: do you have mplayerplug-in installed?
[09:08] <_davexus_> but by default, firefox opens totem
[09:08] <_davexus_> yes
[09:08] <pauldaoust> hm
[09:08] <Koobi> totem is evil :/
[09:08] <bon_> can anyone help with my tvcaaard problem http://pastebin.com/614860
[09:08] <_jason> ubotu: tell _davexus_ about replacetotem
[09:08] <newcomplexlife> hello, i have a problem with dapper
[09:08] <corto_maltese> problem with CUPS: error message: "Connection to CUPS server failed" someone can help me, please?
[09:08] <_davexus_> yes, totem is crap :/
[09:09] <bsdfox> lunari, does the livecd boot on it?
[09:09] <newcomplexlife> my normal user is freeze when i write my login
[09:09] <lunari> bsdfox: I haven't tried, let me download it real quick
[09:09] <graft> corto_maltese: um... is your cups server running?
[09:09] <pauldaoust> corto_maltese: is the CUPS server running on a different computer?
[09:09] <bon_> can anyone help with my tvcaaard problem http://pastebin.com/614860
[09:09] <corto_maltese> yes I cheked it
[09:09] <metalhedd> bsdfox: that's all that really matter, I'm not too concerned with bleeding edge games, but it'd be nice to be able to play something newer than black and white (which runs like a dream under cedega on my hardware)  the tv-out on my card is also garbage, has nvidia made improvements in that area since then?
[09:09] <corto_maltese> no I have only one PC connected to 1 printer
[09:09] <newcomplexlife> http://www.ubuntu-es.org/node/15025 this is my problem
[09:09] <graft> corto_maltese: when you goto localhost:631 what do you get?
[09:10] <graft> err http://localhost:631
[09:10] <Absenth> what's the package name for the kernel headers?
[09:10] <lunari> bsdfox: I just wish the mirrors were faster lol
[09:10] <newcomplexlife> http://www.ubuntu-es.org/node/15025
[09:10] <newcomplexlife> http://www.ubuntu-es.org/node/15025
[09:10] <corto_maltese> I can't access but the deamon is running
[09:10] <lunari> bsdfox: only getting about 615KB/sec lol
[09:10] <GTroy> hey guys how do I unmute the sound?
[09:11] <[TechGuy] > alsamixer
[09:11] <bsdfox> haha shit
[09:11] <bsdfox> what kinda connection do you have
[09:11] <pauldaoust> sooooo... am I to guess that NOBODY else has their X session get killed (like when you press Ctrl-Alt-Backspace) when they press Shift-Enter? nobody? that is so weird. It started happening after I installed XGL and Compiz, and I'm sure other people have installed those...
[09:11] <lunari> bsdfox: lol 10mb/1mb cable ;) ;) ;)
[09:11] <GTroy> TechGuy: just use alsamixer?>
[09:11] <pauldaoust> oh no, ubuntu left the room. What shall we do now?
[09:11] <Koobi> Absenth: something along the lines of linux-headers-'uname r' if im not mistaken
[09:11] <bsdfox> nice
[09:11] <graft> pauldaoust: for Xgl shift-backspace kills X
[09:12] <[TechGuy] > GTroy: Usually
[09:12] <lunari> :)
[09:12] <bon_> HELP http://pastebin.com/614860
[09:12] <pauldaoust> graft: hm, I wonder how it got remapped to shift-enter without my touching it?
[09:12] <bsdfox> metalhedd, yeah tv-out works relatively well
[09:12] <[TechGuy] > (I'm doing this from memory, honestly... I only deal in command-line servers, really)
[09:12] <mor> hi I am a girl that have used ubuntu in a month now, but now there is something wrong with my panel :( all the programs disapear when I miminise them :( can anyone help?
[09:12] <bon_> HELP tvcaard problems http://pastebin.com/614860
[09:12] <graft> pauldaoust: shift-backspace does what?
[09:12] <pauldaoust> graft: oh sorry... you're right; it's not shift-Enter; it's shift-backspace.
[09:12] <bsdfox> the quality isn't perfect but it's definately usable, and much better than the tv-out on your card
[09:12] <pauldaoust> graft: that's where I'm having problems.
[09:12] <graft> corto_maltese: http://localhost:631 gets you nothing?
[09:13] <pauldaoust> am I the only one who doesn't think that's an idiotic keybinding?
[09:13] <corto_maltese> nothing
[09:13] <graft> pauldaoust: no
[09:13] <pauldaoust> graft: off-hand, do you know where Xgl stores its keybindings?
[09:13] <graft> erm... i read how to fix this at one point hold on...
[09:13] <metalhedd> bsdfox: also, is it possible to use the tv-out and the vga-out simultaneously to run 2 separate desktops?
[09:13] <Mengine> hi I am a girl that have used ubuntu in a month now, but now there is something wrong with my panel :( all the programs disapear when I miminise them :( can anyone help?
[09:13] <pauldaoust> whoa, I put in two negatives there. I meant to say "am I the only one who DOES think it's a stupid keybinding"
[09:13] <richard> anyone can help me to install lexmark z617?
[09:13] <ryanpg> hi all... is there any way to open a pdf, fill in forms and save the pdf with the data in the forms on linux?
[09:13] <metalhedd> I havent ever looked into xinerama or any of the other such things.
[09:14] <pauldaoust> Mengine: your taskbar applet might have gone; I've had that problem before.
[09:14] <bsdfox> metalhedd: yeah it's called xinerama
[09:14] <Naail> whats the diff between i386 and i686 anyone?
[09:14] <bsdfox> metalhedd: I think it might only work with the nvidia binary driver
[09:14] <bon_> i cant boot when i have the rf cable pluged into my tvcard -sky tv http://pastebin.com/614860
[09:14] <[TechGuy] > Naail: Optimizations
[09:14] <bsdfox> but.. if you want to game under linux you're gonna be getting an nvidia anyways
[09:15] <metalhedd> bsdfox: yeah I wouldn't bother using the free driver anywy :)  i'm going to give it a try with my current card. is it difficult to set up?
[09:15] <Hexidigital> i cant wait until Civ 4 is runnable under Linux... i will ditch windows completely
[09:15] <pauldaoust> Mengine: If you right-click on the big empty space where the minimised applications should be, and click on 'Add to panel', you'll be able to put it back there.
[09:15] <Naail> Techguy what would an amd 3000+ be? i686?
[09:15] <[TechGuy] > ya
[09:15] <Mengine> pauldaoust: I know but I dont know what to put back :(
[09:15] <bsdfox> metalhedd, the binary driver? no it's very easy
[09:15] <pauldaoust> Mengine: wait wait. Did you ever get a message that said 'wnck-applet has closed unexpectedly; do you want to restart it'?
[09:15] <corto_maltese> graft, I restart CUPS to be sure it's running
[09:15] <Naail> cheers ;)
[09:15] <graft> pauldaoust: um... apparently you can just fix it with xmodmap
[09:15] <metalhedd> bsdfox: no i meant xinerama. I already have the binary driver installed
[09:15] <pauldaoust> graft: thanks kindly!
[09:16] <Mengine> pauldaoust: I havent but maybe my mom have :(
[09:16] <bsdfox> metalhedd: oh.. I think it's just an option in xorg.conf
[09:16] <ryanblack> Hexidigital: I can't wait till direct X works fully under *nix somehow.. but in that case I'll just use an OS X port
[09:16] <bsdfox> just do a google search for xinerama and xorg
[09:16] <metalhedd> bsdfox: cool. I'll give it a shot. it'd be nice to watch videos on the TV and still have my desktop to work on
[09:16] <pauldaoust> Mengine: ha ha! okay, what's in the left corner of your bottom panel? is there any icon there at all?
[09:16] <neoxan> re :)
[09:16] <metalhedd> even though my monitor is bigger than my tv. :)
[09:17] <bsdfox> :P
[09:17] <Hexidigital> ryanblack... my printer drivers and civ are the only reason i have win installed... otherwise, the configurations i set (so far) have not failed
[09:17] <Mengine> pauldaoust: yes I have putted the gnome icon there the main menu if you understand
[09:17] <bsdfox> stuff looks better on tv
[09:17] <bsdfox> Hexidigital: freeciv!
[09:17] <ryanblack> Hexidigital: do you play any games that require direct x?
[09:17] <[TechGuy] > bsdfox: More like you notice how crappy a TV signal is on a monitor. ;)
[09:17] <Hexidigital> ryanblack, civ does
[09:17] <michael> does aireplay work with atheros cards on this distro?
[09:17] <metalhedd> bsdfox: yeah if it works well I'll bring my livinroom tv in here, its got svidio-in
[09:17] <ryanblack> bsdfox:  freeciv leaves a little to be desired
[09:17] <Hexidigital> bsdfox, freeciv isn't the same as civ 4 :)
[09:17] <metalhedd> bsdfox: and its much bigger.
[09:17] <Koobi> i need metalheads address so i can rob his house
[09:17] <pauldaoust> Mengine: okay. Now, to the right of the main menu, do you see any sort of gripping handle? If the taskbar really has been moved, the gripping handle will be gone.
[09:18] <ryanblack> Hexidigital: you'll be waiting for quite a while for direct x support me thinks
[09:18] <bsdfox> haha
[09:18] <michael> does aireplay work with atheros cards on this distro?
[09:18] <metalhedd> Koobi: for what?  I'm pretty much a poverty case.
[09:18] <Elektrochelovek> hey, how i can generate pdf's? when i want to print from gnome pdf reader i can see "create a pdf document" as a printer. But when i try to use it I get generatins is unsuported;// Ubuntu dapper drake. flight 5
[09:18] <bsdfox> the future is DX10 which is completely different
[09:18] <Hexidigital> ryanblack, i'm able to get the game to install with wine, but it just dosent run.... so i do have some hope out there :)
[09:18] <Astinus-> is there non-destructive ntfs partition resize in ubuntu installer?
[09:18] <Elektrochelovek> do i need som package?
[09:18] <Koobi> metalhead, how wide is your monitor?
[09:18] <ryanblack> I am an OS X guy myself and use ubuntu and kubuntu for server stuff
[09:18] <metalhedd> Koobi: its a standard 19" crt.
[09:19] <Mengine> pauldaoust:  hmm the thing that you can scroll away the bottom menu?
[09:19] <Koobi> still bigger than mine :(
[09:19] <ryanblack> does wine handle direct x?
[09:19] <bsdfox> my monitor is a 14" lcd
[09:19] <pauldaoust> Mengine: hmmm, I'm not sure. what do you mean by scroll?
[09:19] <metalhedd> Koobi: its the only decent part of my computer.
[09:19] <bsdfox> built into a laptop
[09:19] <Hexidigital> ryanblack, no it dosent
[09:19] <pauldaoust> Mengine: oh I know what you mean! No, not that thing.
[09:19] <lunari> 20.1" widescreen lcd :D
[09:19] <Mengine> pauldaoust:  If I press on it the thing disapear :P
[09:19] <[TechGuy] > ryanblack: Cedega I think does. Mainstream WINE, no
[09:19] <Mengine> now there is nothing else just the clock :P
[09:19] <ryanblack> Hexidigital:  then I can't change to *nix..
[09:19] <Koobi> metalhead, i'm crap at h/w so i probably couldnt tell you if my system was a good one or a bad one hehe
[09:19] <kapputu> Is there a Ubuntu guide website for Breezy?
[09:19] <Mengine> pauldaoust: now there is nothing else just the clock :P
[09:19] <ryanblack> I have a mac mini solo with xp on it aside x
[09:20] <Coffee_Runner> any1 know why some of my wmv files will run fine...but others the audio just wont work? I have all the codecs and like...4 players...they all produce the same results
[09:20] <ryanblack> that's what I am going to do
[09:20] <bsdfox> ryanblack, *nix will always lag windows by a few years in directx
[09:20] <Koobi> kapputu: http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu <---guide for breezy
[09:20] <ryanblack> when a desktop mac comes out with intel.... I am going to load win xp pro for games on a partition.
[09:20] <oxigen> when will be released Flight 5 (not alpha)?
[09:20] <ryanblack> and use os x for everything else
[09:20] <Koobi> hope there are no typo's there. had to type it out
[09:21] <Spr0ckit> Coffee_Runner, did you try Automatix?
[09:21] <metalhedd> oxigen: flight 5 is an alpha release.. the official Dapper drake release is supposed to be april20 i think
[09:21] <graft> Koobi, paste still not working?
[09:21] <pauldaoust> Mengine: okay, right-click anywhere in the blank space on that panel, and go 'Add to panel'. Look for 'Window List', and double-click on it.
[09:21] <bsdfox> metalhedd, they delayed it to june 1st
[09:21] <Coffee_Runner> o.o ummmm....wha?
[09:21] <oxigen> metalhedd, thank you!
[09:21] <Spr0ckit> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=138405&highlight=automatix
[09:21] <OmniColos> when I get my intel mac I'm gonna install windows on it just to erase and write over it with ubuntu :D
[09:21] <NeverDream> automatix is genius
[09:21] <boabsta> kapputu, you could also try http://help.ubuntu.com/
[09:21] <metalhedd> bsdfox: good!  i wasn't too impressed with the installation..
[09:21] <Koobi> greaft: well i didnt shift to irssi yet. it says i should read the manual fist but i dont feel like it now so i will probably try it tomorrow :)
[09:22] <boabsta> has anyone installed truecrypt?
[09:22] <graft> Koobi: nah, no need to read any manual... it's ridiculously easy
[09:22] <graft> as long as you know basic IRC commands
[09:22] <Spr0ckit> it's got all that illegal codecs in the US nonsense, so it's up to your moral code.
[09:22] <Mengine> pauldaoust: omg haha I dint know you could scroll that window!! :D
[09:22] <pauldaoust> Mengine. Now you'll have a taskbar, but it'll be in the wrong spot. So grab the gripping handle on the left side of the new taskbar, drag it to the left, as far as you want it to go (because you said you have something over in the left already).
[09:22] <gleesond> ok so I can't change the setting for my display to be higher than 1024x768, but my card and monitor. support higher than that, also my /etc/X11/xorg.conf seems to be set to allow more than that as well
[09:22] <bsdfox> oxigen, flight5 works alright.. there are definately bugs to fix but other than a few nautilus crashes and some weird graphics stuff I'm impressed. gnome 2.14 is fast!
[09:22] <pauldaoust> Mengine: heh heh.
[09:22] <Mengine> pauldaoust: thanks alot it is fixed :P
[09:22] <OmniColos> hopefully asus will be making these intel books when I'm loking to buy one
[09:22] <gleesond> how can I change this
[09:22] <pauldaoust> Mengine: good to hear.
[09:23] <graft> Koobi: the only thing you need to know is ALT-1, ALT-2 to switch windows, etc.
[09:23] <oxigen> bsdfox, i have problems with installation...
[09:23] <bsdfox> gleesond, what's it say down at the bottom of xorg.conf under the screens section
[09:23] <Koobi> good to know, thanks :)
[09:23] <pauldaoust> gleesond: maybe the scan frequencies are set wrong in xorg.conf. If that's the case, xorg.conf will see the problem, and disallow those resolutions. Do you have a TFT panel?
[09:23] <bsdfox> oxigen, oh.. I installed breezy and upgraded it
[09:23] <boabsta> gleesond, check what the default colour depth is and make sure the display modes are correct for that display depth in xorg.conf
[09:23] <CoffeeBreaks> I am searching for documentation/HowTo/tools to help centralize the administration of several ubuntu desktops in a Windows environment. Is this the right place to ask for these kind of questions?
[09:23] <boabsta> has anyone installed truecrypt?
[09:24] <oxigen> bsdfox, what you just replaced repositories?
[09:24] <pauldaoust> boabsta: never heard o' it
[09:24] <bsdfox> wtf does that even mean
[09:24] <bsdfox> oxigen, yeah
[09:24] <bsdfox> and ran apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:24] <Spr0ckit> CoffeeBreaks, did you look at using ssh?
[09:24] <gleesond> bsdfox: default screen
[09:24] <OmniColos> btw, has anyone been successful with ubuntu on an intel based mac?
[09:24] <NeverDream> automatix should come with ubuntu
[09:24] <bsdfox> it worked well, although it left me with HAL and dbus uninstalled which kinda fked things
[09:24] <bsdfox> gleesond, what about resolutions
[09:24] <Koobi> graft: /connect irc.freenode.net seems to time out eventually
[09:25] <oxigen> bsdfox, hmm, good idea, where are new reposetories?
[09:25] <metalhedd> my problem with the isntallation was that I have onboard video as well as an agp card and I can't disable the onboard in the bios, after the install the system wouldn't start x because it was trying to use the onboard video.  you'd think it should be bale to tell which is the correct card, after all it IS outputting the console to that same device, why not X? silly...
[09:25] <[TechGuy] > Can't LILO install to a multidisk device (e.g. md0), which is RAID1?
[09:25] <graft> Koobi: /server irc.freenode.net
[09:25] <Koobi> ah
[09:25] <NeverDream> /server irc.freenode.net
[09:25] <corto_maltese> graft, now from firefox i success in opening localhost:631
[09:25] <bsdfox> oxigen: just replace 'breezy' with 'dapper' in /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:25] <graft> corto_maltese: cool, then your cups server should be okay... if the printer is listed with the correct driver, try and print a test page
[09:25] <oxigen> bsdfox, oh, that's easy  :)
[09:25] <CoffeeBreaks> Spr0ckit: that would be my first option, yes. I was wondering if there was more higher level tools. I can ssh, but I am trying to set something in place for people who don't need to go to that level of details :)
[09:25] <bsdfox> metalhedd, most northbridges will disable video if there is an AGP card
[09:26] <Koobi> brb
[09:26] <richard> how can i install a usb printer?
[09:26] <gleesond> bsdfox: its got a bunch of different settings the one I would like is 24 "1280x1024"
[09:26] <bsdfox> gleesond, "1280x1024" is listed under depth 24 and the defaultdepth is 24?
[09:26] <Spr0ckit> what's the skill leverl of the person using the tool(s) and what kinda things do they need to do?
[09:26] <gleesond> bsdfox: ye[
[09:26] <gleesond> yep
[09:26] <pestilence> anyone know how to reset the collection database in amarok properly?
[09:27] <bsdfox> either your videocard or monitor section is screwed up
[09:27] <lunari> bsdfox: the download of the livecd is almost done
[09:27] <bsdfox> lunari, bastard..
[09:27] <JackHanna> hey guys
[09:27] <lunari> bsdfox: at 84%
[09:27] <Spr0ckit> bash scripts with ssh allows one user to do anything, and if you set 'em with the right permissions, you can assure that's all they do.
[09:27] <Cooner750> Do Windows .ttf fonts work with Ubuntu>
[09:27] <Cooner750> ?
[09:28] <Spr0ckit> but there's like webmin, but that may let the user(s) do too much.
[09:28] <Cooner750> If so, how to install
[09:28] <NeverDream> Cooner750, yes
[09:28] <corto_maltese> graft, i have to install the printer
[09:28] <JackHanna> anyone know if there's a how to on getting video drivers working with ATI IGP intigrated video?
[09:28] <pestilence> Coffee_Runner, apt-get install msttcorefonts
[09:28] <bsdfox> metalhedd, you CAN specify the device bus address in xorg.conf too
[09:28] <pestilence> ack
[09:28] <Cooner750> Where do I put them
[09:28] <metalhedd> bsdfox: my motherboard is a giant piece of crap. stupid SIS chipset to.
[09:28] <Mabus06> Spr0ckit: are you good with bash? Would you be able to take a look at my script and tell me what is wrong? It's only 9 lines long.
[09:28] <pestilence> Cooner750, apt-get install msttcorefonts
[09:28] <metalhedd> bsdfox: Yeah I know, I got it working, but the installer should do its best tro always start x properly the first time. a noobie wouldn't appreciate being dropped at a console
[09:28] <graft> Cooner750: stick them in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/
[09:28] <Spr0ckit> do you have it posted online? I'm not one for dcc'ing scripts from others/
[09:29] <Mabus06> http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=13906
[09:29] <Cooner750> I found this is a good place for a lot of fonts, including standard windows fonts like Century Gothic http://www.webpagepublicity.com/free-fonts.html
[09:29] <Mabus06> lol, fair enough
[09:29] <bsdfox> oh, yeah definately
[09:30] <metalhedd> bsdfox: maybe i'll file a bug-report?
[09:30] <graft> this is definitely off-topic, but anyone have recommendations for a nice cheap portable laptop?
[09:30] <bsdfox> but as I said.. normally the northbridge disables the onboard when it sees a card filling the AGP slot. and it should if it finds a pci video card, but I wouldn;t count on it.
[09:31] <graveson> which combination of hardware and software can i use on ubuntu breezy to copy audio tapes to cd ?
[09:31] <lunari> bsdfox: sometimes you have to disable the IGP graphics from within the bios
[09:31] <FliesLikeALap> what are the usual device names for bluetooth devices?
[09:31] <bsdfox> metalhedd, yeah I guess that'd be a bug in ubuntu. but I've only been using ubuntu for 2 weeks so I'm not the guy to ask
[09:31] <metalhedd> bsdfox: what distro did you come from?
[09:31] <bsdfox> freebsd/gentoo
[09:31] <graft> graveson: get audacity or something and use that to record from your line-in to .wav or whatever
[09:31] <graft> then burn the wavs to CD
[09:32] <bsdfox> the hd in my laptop died and I decided to give ubuntu a shot, since everyone talks about it so much
[09:32] <graft> with k3b etc.
[09:32] <bsdfox> it's not bad
[09:32] <uzume> does anybody knows what is Sun-RPC portmap ?
[09:32] <metalhedd> bsdfox: i'm in the same boat, came from gentoo, not I've tried freebsd before too... I loved gentoo, just got sick of waiting for compiling... i'm still getting used to the debian ways
[09:33] <bsdfox> yeah.. I got sick of compiling stuff on my laptop
[09:33] <bsdfox> kills the battery
[09:33] <bsdfox> still running gentoo on my desktop and freebsd for servers though
[09:33] <[TechGuy] > metalhedd: I used Debian for years before FreeBSD. Switched to BSD because Debian got way behind on specific packages I needed (even direct from the maintainer), and FreeBSD was beating Linux in benchmarks at the time
[09:33] <[TechGuy] > Now I dunno in benchmarks, getting tired of compiling, and I know LVM *way* better than Vinum
[09:34] <graveson> do i just need my audio player to have an outlet (AV) to the line in of my pc ?
[09:34] <graft> graveson: it has a headphone jack, yah?
[09:34] <bsdfox> vinum is old school
[09:35] <Cooner750> I put the Century Gothic font in /usr/share/fonts/truetype (had to chmod 777 first), but yet the font still wont display in Firefox on my homepage, which uses Century Gothic as the main front..
[09:35] <[TechGuy] > vinum, gvinum, geom, $insert_name
[09:35] <Cooner750> font*
[09:35] <bsdfox> 5.x and 6.x have like raidstack or something weird
[09:35] <graveson> graft :yep
[09:35] <MisterN> Cooner750: try ~/.fonts/
[09:35] <Howitzer> Does an expert-install give you the option to choose the services and packages to install?
[09:35] <graft> Cooner750: that's REALLY bad web-page design, first of all
[09:35] <juztin> hi all...i'm looking for a good ubuntu-friendly media player that has something like winamp's media library...any suggestions?
[09:36] <bsdfox> juztin, amarok?
[09:36] <eugman> Hey I accidentally change the init screen from the default to the kubuntu one. Will there be any problems loading up if I uninstall kubuntu desktop?
[09:36] <juztin> bsdfox, thanks :)
[09:36] <graft> graveson: so then just get a dual-headed 1/8" phono line and plug it in to your PC and the headphone jack of the tape player
[09:36] <[TechGuy] > whoa... okay this is weird. Breezy's installer refused to install /boot on my RAID1 partition, like it never even mounted it
[09:36] <Cooner750> I know. The font used to be Arial and it decided not to work for some reason and century gothic was my last resort, since I know Macs and Windows both have the font installed by default
[09:37] <metalhedd> [TechGuy] : I once tried debian back in the days when I knew nothing about linux, I'd install a distro and run it for a few days until I ran into something I couldn't figure out, then go back to windows... gentoo was the first distro to teach me enough that I never had to go back
[09:37] <graft> Cooner750: just say 'sans-serif'...?
[09:37] <[TechGuy] > metalhedd: Then it did its job, I guess.
[09:37] <S|ipKnoT> testing dab
[09:37] <graveson> graft: sorry for my ignorance but what is a "dual-headed 1/8" phono line"
[09:37] <[TechGuy] > now that you know... heh. ;)
[09:37] <metalhedd> I still think everyone who wants to really learn how things work should install gentoo once
[09:37] <S|ipKnoT> sugeng enjing sedoyo mawon
[09:37] <gleesond> so I tried to sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:37] <bsdfox> gentoo was the first distro I could use productively as a desktop too
[09:38] <bsdfox> emerge is pretty badass.
[09:38] <gleesond> but it still won't load at the higher frequencie and resolution
[09:38] <graft> graveson: 1/8" phono is the standard headphone plug size that fits into computers, etc.
[09:38] <metalhedd> bsdfox: I agree... everything I know I learned from gentoo.
[09:38] <graft> graveson: dual headed just means it has a plug on both ends
[09:38] <metalhedd> thats why i'm a little confused with the way debian does things
[09:38] <[TechGuy] > I've never been able to be productive on Linux as a desktop. Between drivers, various niggling things here and there, etc
[09:38] <bsdfox> but I'm liking ubuntu a bit, probably shouldn't have upgraded to dapper already cause I've got weird bugs but whatever :)
[09:38] <graft> graveson: your local radio shack oughta have one... but make sure it's stereo and not mono
[09:39] <[TechGuy] > metalhedd: It all makes sense, in its own way. You get used to it
[09:39] <bsdfox> [TechGuy] , as long as you're not trying to play windows games it's easy :P
[09:39] <corto_maltese> second problem: I have a printer connected to a USB prot trough an adapter USB to parallel, what to type on "Device" when I try to install it?
[09:39] <corto_maltese> tnx
[09:39] <graveson> graft: okay thanx
[09:39] <Cooner750> Got gFTP
[09:39] <metalhedd> [TechGuy] : its mostly the init script stuff.. gentoo was so easy. rc-update add whatever yourrunlevel  i haven't figured out how to do that on debian.
[09:39] <[TechGuy] > bsdfox: What? Linux as a desktop? *shrug*
[09:40] <[TechGuy] > metalhedd: Symlinks
[09:40] <bsdfox> metalhedd, I got sysv-rc-update
[09:40] <metalhedd> bsdfox: whats that?
[09:40] <[TechGuy] > metalhedd: Thus, Debian is backwards. It's forcing you to do it the Real Way [tm] .  I;m rocking the $5 pizza
[09:42] <metalhedd> bsdfox: first time she's cooked for me, its usually vice-verse... we'll see if I really am lucky in a few hours :)
[09:42] <alteroo> how do I diasble some of the process that startup.. like bluetooth. which i dont use right now?
[09:43] <lunari> bsdfox: Okay, after booting the live cd and making all the way through the splash screen where it tells you what it's doing and such.. when it goes to start up x the screen goes blank with just a _ in the upper left hand corner
[09:43] <pestilence> alteroo, update-rc.d (see man page)
[09:43] <selinium> is there a 'super' kill command? I am trying to kill a grep that will not stop..
[09:43] <graft> selinium: kill -9
[09:43] <metalhedd> selinium: kill -9
[09:43] <selinium> Cheers peeps! :)
[09:43] <Madeye> guys, I'm looking for a good backup system that can connect over network to other PCs (windows, linux, apple) and back them up, any recommendation ?
[09:43] <graft> man the day i discovered pkill -f i was so happy
[09:44] <jenda> I need help with locales. http://pastebin.com/614875
[09:44] <scharnagl> hi, i have ubuntu 5.3 on my harddrive, i also have a windows pc with a minolta printer connected and some folders are connectable through the network. i can read/write the folder, with smblient it shows me that a printer is free in the network
[09:44] <alteroo> carve: hey roncey!
[09:44] <lunari> Any ideas bsdfox?
[09:44] <lunari> :)
[09:44] <carve> greetings
[09:44] <jenda> And, for the locales - I have Breezy in English
[09:44] <IamEthos> my hard drive partition has the owner set as root
[09:45] <scharnagl> i tried to install it manually with the gui for printers
[09:45] <IamEthos> and as such I cannot write to it
[09:45] <scharnagl> but it has not worked yet ;(
[09:45] <IamEthos> can anyone tell me how I can change that?
[09:45] <carve> hey how do i edit my proccesses that upload when i start ubuntu
[09:45] <Cooner750> When I insert my CF card into my CompactFlash slot on my computer (Pavilion a720n) it does not do anything
[09:45] <[TechGuy] > Crud... I forget what package name it is... there is/was a package in Debian that cleaned out all installed locales except for the ones you mark as installed
[09:45] <Cooner750> when I double-click the drive it says "Opening Compactflash..."
[09:45] <Cooner750> with a Cancel button
[09:45] <IamEthos> I think I'm just going to format it and start over
[09:45] <Cooner750> what do I do?
[09:45] <IamEthos> reinstall and everything
[09:45] <IamEthos> hopefully I can fix it that way
[09:46] <scharnagl> any ideas on how to get the minolate 1300W printer to work on the network?
[09:46] <alteroo> carve: hmm
[09:46] <alteroo> carve: hmm
[09:46] <Cooner750> When I try to mount the volume it says "Error: could not lock the mount directory. Another pmount is probably running for this mount point."
[09:47] <[TechGuy] > automounter?
[09:47] <jenda> I need help with locales please - it won't let me use subversion and god knows what else. http://pastebin.com/614875 It's a fresh English install.
[09:47] <Cooner750> I havent installed anything related to mounting
[09:47] <Cooner750> Is there a command I can run to get it to read my card?
[09:48] <scharnagl> please!!!
[09:49] <alteroo> carve: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Speed_up_boot <-- try that
[09:49] <jenda> I need help with locales please - it won't let me use subversion and god knows what else. http://pastebin.com/614875 It's a fresh English install.
[09:50] <jenda> (sorry)
[09:50] <carve> alteroo thanks
[09:50] <tapox> Hey all, I recently dist-upgraded to Dapper, and now it's giving me errors about PCMCIA on boot. But I'm running a desktop, any way to remove PCMCIA support?
[09:51] <crimsun> !info pcmciautils dapper
[09:51] <ubotu> pcmciautils: (PCMCIA utilities for Linux 2.6), section admin, is important. Version: 012-1ubuntu2 (dapper), Packaged size: 27 kB, Installed size: 148 kB
[09:51] <tapox> So I can safely remove it?
[09:51] <asterX_ba> hello guys
[09:52] <crimsun> tapox: and pcmcia-cs
[09:52] <gary> kingspawn, I got ubuntu installed :D
[09:52] <asterX_ba> how may I play a movie which is made with the Windows Media Codec 9??
[09:52] <gary> asterX_ba: I find totem to be very good, also mplayer plays near enoguh everything
[09:52] <asterX_ba> VLC doesn't work very good
[09:52] <asterX_ba> or better
[09:53] <asterX_ba> it is fantastic
[09:53] <gary> Anyone here used mencoder before?
[09:53] <tapox> crimsun, ty.
[09:53] <asterX_ba> but... it doesn't play WMV coded with the latest version
[09:53] <asterX_ba> 9
[09:53] <Cooner750> Why does Ubuntu show a ? mark over Mp3s when I mouseover them? They open and play fine
[09:53] <asterX_ba> it plays the audio only
[09:53] <gary> sounds like a codec problem
[09:54] <asterX_ba> but it works fantastic with Windows
[09:54] <asterX_ba> I had the same problem in Windows
[09:54] <asterX_ba> it didn't play the video track
[09:54] <carve> Hey guys, how do i get plug ins for the beep media player ?
[09:54] <asterX_ba> I needed to install the WMV 9.0 codec
[09:54] <gary> still sounds like a codec problem
[09:54] <gary> I would guess you need the codecs
[09:55] <S|ipKnoT> how can i upgrade my ubuntu but not  by online way or offline network connection
[09:55] <asterX_ba> w32codecs?
[09:55] <jehnx> Is this the place where I can ask some questions, or is there another chan for that?
[09:55] <iceburgh> can anyone tell me how to install an rpm or convert it to a deb?
[09:55] <IamEthos> okay, I'm creating a partition on my windows system drive for ubuntu
[09:55] <jehnx> iceburgh: I'll PM you instructions, initiate a pm session with me.
[09:55] <IamEthos> do I create it as primary or logical?
[09:55] <kingspawn> gary: great :)
[09:55] <nickrud> iceburgh, use the package alien ; are you sure there isn't a deb already available?
[09:55] <IamEthos> keep in mind, I really, really don't want to fuck up windows
[09:55] <graveson> trying to rip a cd with grip and keep on getting the error "invalid encoder executable"
[09:55] <IamEthos> I'm using Partition Magic, btw
[09:56] <jayg> installed breezy few days ago, love it too bits, slight problem, no sound at all anywhere, have a audigy 4, anyone know how i can use it please :)
[09:56] <S|ipKnoT> but before i have already download many tool that i need for upgrating my ubuntu
[09:56] <S|ipKnoT> hallo?
[09:56] <IamEthos> anyone?
[09:56] <S|ipKnoT> anybody can help me?
[09:56] <S|ipKnoT> please
[09:57] <IamEthos> do I create a logical or primary partition for Ubuntu to run along side my windows system partition (ntfs)
[09:57] <jayg> i created a primary, worked fine here, and im a newbie too lol
[09:57] <jehnx> IamEthos: Primary.
[09:57] <koobi> IamEthos, you can do that via the ubuntu installer
[09:57] <metalhedd> k3b can't make audio cd's out of mp3's what package do I need?
[09:57] <nalioth> ubotu: tell metalhedd about mp3
[09:57] <asterX_ba> does mplayer need to be compiled??
[09:57] <S|ipKnoT> anybody can help me?
[09:57] <S|ipKnoT> hallo?
[09:57] <IamEthos> koobi: I've heard that the ubuntu installer is sometimes problematic in resizing partitions
[09:57] <IamEthos> and I really, really don't want to lose windows
[09:57] <jayg> gawd, i got multiple desktops too, sweet
[09:58] <koobi> asterX_ba: you can apt-get it using the package name mplayer-nogui, you also have other options such as mpkayer-686
[09:58] <metalhedd> nalioth: I have mp3 support. amarok can play them.
[09:58] <koobi> IamEthos, i have experienced none of those problems. installed and partitions ubuntu+windows twice on this HDD
[09:58] <IamEthos> what is the difference between primary and logical?
[09:58] <asterX_ba> do I need other sources??
[09:58] <nalioth> metalhedd: if you go into k3b prefs, it'll tell you the pkgs you are missing
[09:58] <pierro> i just installed bittornado. Any idea how to run it in ubuntu ?
[09:58] <koobi> IamEthos: you had better backup in any case just to be safe
[09:59] <koobi> asterX_ba: you might need the PLF (Penguin Liberation Front)
[09:59] <koobi> let me get that for you
[09:59] <jayg> can anyone point me in the right direction to fix the sound problem i have?
[09:59] <jehnx> IamEthos: http://www.pcguide.com/ref/hdd/file/structPartitions-c.html
[09:59] <asterX_ba> apt-cache search mplayer
[09:59] <asterX_ba> mga-vid-source - Kernel driver for the back-end scaler on Matrox cards (source)
[10:00] <IamEthos> okay
[10:00] <IamEthos> second question
[10:00] <metalhedd> nalioth: the only things I'm missing are normalize, emovix and some vcd things.
[10:00] <koobi> asterX_ba: this is off my sources.list # Penguin Liberation Front (packages)
[10:00] <koobi> deb ftp://ftp.free.fr/pub/Distributions_Linux/plf/ubuntu/plf/ breezy free non-free
[10:00] <koobi> # Penguin Liberation Front (sources)
[10:00] <koobi> deb-src ftp://ftp.free.fr/pub/Distributions_Linux/plf/ubuntu/plf/ breezy free non-free
[10:00] <IamEthos> I originally installed ubuntu to an external usb hard drive
[10:00] <IamEthos> but I have given up trying to make that work
[10:00] <[TechGuy] > Penguin... Liberation... Front... now there's a new one
[10:00] <IamEthos> however, I already have Grub loaded on there
[10:00] <IamEthos> actually
[10:00] <koobi> asterX_ba: add those to /etc/apt/sources.list and apt-get update and apt-cache search for the mplayer version you want
[10:00] <IamEthos> not on there
[10:01] <IamEthos> on the boot record on my main hard drive
[10:01] <IamEthos> so do I have to get rid of Grub?
[10:01] <jehnx> IamEthos: Why do you want to get rid of it?
[10:01] <IamEthos> do I have to change something?
[10:01] <[TechGuy] > ah ha! Now I have an idea why aptitude looks screwed up. The console font is different in Ubuntu than Debian
[10:01] <IamEthos> well, do I have to get rid of it before the new install?
[10:01] <andrea_> !mp3
[10:01] <ubotu> mp3 is probably a non-free format. To enable mp3 capability, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[10:01] <jehnx> No, it will just have a new list in there in grub.
[10:01] <graveson> i am looking for the mp3encode package ,can anyone help me .all my repositories are enabled and still i cannot find it
[10:01] <koobi> you can  just edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:01] <IamEthos> so that having two version of ubuntu doesn't confuse it
[10:01] <jehnx> Yeah, there's a list, but be sure to backup before you edit the file koobi just mentioned.
[10:01] <shavvn> someone please help - a friend just installed breezy and it freezes right after log in, is there anything he can do?
[10:02] <jehnx> shavvn: after "log in"?  Does it say it's loading anything?
[10:02] <koobi> oh...if you're reinstalling it, you have the option to overwrite it so dont worry aobut it IamEthos
[10:02] <shavvn> jehnx, no, he signs in then just brown screen and nothing else
[10:02] <jehnx> IamEthos: Grub is meant to manage those, so you can log into either version, or you can just re-do the whole thing at the new installation.
[10:02] <IamEthos> cool
[10:03] <IamEthos> should I just format the partition with the old ubuntu install on it?
[10:03] <koobi> would anyone like to exchange lives with me for a day and take this boring art history mid-term for me tomorrow?
[10:03] <jehnx> If you don't want it anymore, sure.. you can do that during the new isntallation, though.

[10:04] <jayg> ubuntu, great stuff
[10:04] <jehnx> do you have alsa installed?
[10:04] <Oetzi> do anyone know a good howto to compile an own kernel
[10:04] <mirak> beagle is really crap
[10:04] <jayg> well im not too sure, very new to linux, been a windows user for years
[10:04] <Oetzi> and to config and so on
[10:04] <jehnx> jayg: Ok, go to a console, and type: sudo apt-get install alsa
[10:04] <IamEthos> hmm
[10:04] <edan> anyone knows wher i can get a nvidia icon?
[10:04] <shavvn> can someone tell me what LVM does?
[10:04] <jehnx> edan: google image search
[10:05] <jayg> ok let me have a look
[10:05] <IamEthos> looks like I have a lot of defragmenting to sit t hrough before I'll be able to do anything anyway
[10:05] <eugman> If my loadup screen before gdm changed to kubuntu is there any danger in removing kubuntu desktop?
[10:05] <edan> thnx
[10:05] <misterii> aaaaaaarrrrrgggh!!!!
[10:05] <NeverDream> is there a quickie way to install qt dev libs with apt-get (something like build-essential for qt dev libs)?
[10:05] <jehnx> shavvn: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/whatislvm.html
[10:05] <metalhedd> how do I force dpkg to ignore dependencies?
[10:05] <koobi> irssi is pretty nifty...it does all the things bitchx doesn't do
[10:05] <Cooner750> How do I change the splash screen? I know it's in the configs somewhere but I forget where...
[10:05] <xored> how do i need to set a directories permission, that all files which ar created are from the same user / group the directory is ?
[10:06] <misterii> would it kill to have graphic rar-archiver for linux?
[10:06] <koobi> metalhedd: not really a good idea to ignore dependencies :/
[10:06] <shavvn> jehnx, thanks - he is re installing at the moment
[10:06] <metalhedd> koobi: i'm aware of that. but its necessary.
[10:06] <JoeMorris> 50% left to burn of ubuntu dapper
[10:06] <jehnx> shavvn: Ok.  :)
[10:06] <JoeMorris> is it buggy?
[10:07] <jehnx> Cooner750: Which splash screen?
[10:07] <asterX_ba> I got some problems with the linux front soruce
[10:07] <asterX_ba> source
[10:07] <jehnx> The one where it has loading of modules below it, etc.?
[10:07] <JoeMorris> hmmm
[10:07] <asterX_ba> some files are missing
[10:07] <asterX_ba> on the server
[10:07] <misterii> anyone know any GUI rar-archivers?
[10:07] <sturhanoglu> hi i am installed conky but i saw today this picture http://www.deviantart.com/view/30117492/ conky dont have graphical interface (or i dont know) likely this they are add icons on the walpaper or different system monitor? i didnt find system monitor likely this anyone know where can i download?
[10:07] <misterii> on breezy
[10:07] <Cooner750> the one that it shows after you login
[10:08] <nickrud> metalhedd, if you really need to, check out the --force options in dpkg manual
[10:08] <_jason> misterii: file-roller lets you extract
[10:08] <misterii> rar?
[10:08] <pierro> anyone knows the command to run bittornado in ubuntu ?
[10:08] <_jason> misterii: yeah, just install unrar-nonfree from multiverse
[10:08] <koobi> metalhedd: man dpkg
[10:08] <misterii> oh...
[10:08] <misterii> I got it, thanks
[10:08] <[TechGuy] > I'm really going braindead today for some reason. Where do you change the boot-time console font?
[10:08] <jehnx> Cooner750: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-26513.html
[10:08] <koobi> dpkg --ignore-depends=<package name> <action>
[10:09] <jehnx> The questions in here are endless!
[10:09] <[TechGuy] > heh
[10:09] <gizida> hi
[10:09] <JoeMorris> fedora doesnt look so hot
[10:09] <jayg> you'll get a lot more now im here i can assure you lol
[10:09] <koobi> brb
[10:09] <jehnx> lol jayg
[10:09] <JoeMorris> so ill stick with ubuntu dapper :)
[10:10] <jayg> but what ive noticed so far its a great community
[10:10] <gizida> has ayone installed xglon ati here?
[10:10] <jehnx> I came in with a question of my own, hehe.  :-P  Still haven't asked it
[10:10] <defuego> s
[10:10] <jehnx> jayg: Yeh, it seems to be.  Today is actually my second day with ubuntu (actually, kubuntu), but I feel like I'm gonna stick with it for a good little while.
[10:11] <jayg> yep same here, just need to iron a few things out like the sound problem, oh and work out what im actually doing with it
[10:11] <Ribs> jehnx: You may be interested in #kubuntu as well :)
[10:11] <[TechGuy] > I'm still looking over what the differences are between it and Debian. :P
[10:11] <htrp> anyone using firestarter? does this program really block packets (ddos)?
[10:12] <jayg> i still cant believe i actually installed it without nuking my windows partition
[10:12] <jehnx> Ribs:  Thanks.  :)
[10:12] <tritan> lo guys
[10:12] <IcemanV9> soon, you'll nuke win partition, jayg ;)
[10:12] <jayg> yep that i have no doubt about at all mate
[10:14] <tritan> was wondering if any of you used the ACX100 wireless driver?
[10:14] <tritan> does this require special firmware?
[10:14] <Blissex> tritan: it sort of works for 11b cards, not really for 11g (ACX111) ones.
[10:14] <ubuntu> hello
[10:15] <lunari> Is there a command to see what proccess are using how much ram and such?
[10:15] <jehnx> tritan: Been here before: http://acx100.sourceforge.net/ ?
[10:15] <tritan> yes been there
[10:15] <jehnx> Hmm.
[10:15] <tritan> thats where I got info from
[10:15] <tritan> http://acx100.sourceforge.net/wiki/Firmware
[10:15] <CarlFK> dapper live cd - how do I just boot to a prompt ?  (no X)
[10:15] <CarlFK> or... what exactly does boot: rescue do?  (probably what I want)
[10:16] <tritan> got a wl-121 sitecom which seems to be supported
[10:16] <tritan> thats a 11g card btw.
[10:16] <IcemanV9> htrp: ubuntu has firewalling built into the kernel; why do you need firestarter?
[10:16] <jbroome> easy to config
[10:16] <Gnonthgol> Can somebody tell me why my Add Application program is not working?
[10:16] <htrp> IcemanV9, i see
[10:16] <ubuntu> i have ever problems, to install ubuntu-dapper flight5 64bit-version on amd64, after install grub give me an error 15, a new install doesnt help
[10:16] <htrp> IcemanV9, but im talkin about, like if someone packets me and stuff
[10:17] <htrp> will the 'built-into-kernel-firewall' block it?
[10:17] <IcemanV9> htrp: you're welcome to install firestarter and learn more about firewall. it's fun to learn.
[10:18] <jehnx> Gnonthgol: Have you restarted your computer?
[10:18] <htrp> im talkin about packeting man
[10:18] <htrp> will the 'built-into-kernel-firewall' block the packets?
[10:18] <jbroome> watch out for the packets
[10:18] <Gnonthgol> jehnx: no, but why should that help?
[10:19] <NeverDream> dapper was set to come out on my birthday...
[10:19] <jehnx> Gnonthgol: Always the first thing you wanna try, if it just stopped working.  My Synaptic wouldn't work yesterday, I restarted, it works fine.
[10:19] <CarlFK> htrp: do you have a firewall on your telephone?
[10:20] <htrp> CarlFK?
[10:20] <st3v3dnd> Can anyone tell me of a a graphical iptables config utility?
[10:20] <st3v3dnd> Someone recommended Firestarter to me last time
[10:20] <sjaak> fwbuilder?
[10:21] <st3v3dnd> but it appears to not have anything to do with iptables
[10:21] <sjaak> firestarter is fine too
[10:21] <sjaak> sure it does. check iptables -L
[10:21] <bdgraue> i have ever problems, to install ubuntu-dapper flight5 64bit-version on amd64, after install grub give me an error 15, a new install doesnt help
[10:21] <Gnonthgol> jehnx: but, this is Linux. Any services (without the kernel) can be restarted without restarting the entire computer. And it should return the same resault when you run it over and over again.
[10:21] <jehnx> I realize that.
[10:22] <jehnx> lol..
[10:22] <defuego> http://easyfwgen.morizot.net/gen/
[10:22] <jayg> hmmm did that suda also thingy, says its already installed, any other ideas?
[10:22] <st3v3dnd> sjaak: So Firestarter does utilize iptables?
[10:22] <jehnx> But if you haven't tried it, even if hypothetically that's how everything should work, then you shouldn't knock the option yet.
[10:22] <kozmic_> i just installed ubuntu breezy and nvidia drivers (have FX 5700 LE), but glxgears -printfps returns about 1500 fps. Isnt that way too slow? I get nvidia splash when i boot up.
[10:22] <gimmulf>  How do i get some cool fonts into gimp?
[10:22] <Seveas> st3v3dnd, yes it does
[10:22] <st3v3dnd> I was also a little concerned with Firestarter because the last release was some time ago, and was wondering if it had stagnated.
[10:22] <Siddhartha211> Hello?
[10:22] <Gnonthgol> For some reason Bill Gates have a random function in every program.
[10:22] <ninehrcoma> any amd64 users here?
[10:22] <jehnx> All the time you've spent sitting here could have been already restarted, just to see if it works or not.
[10:22] <jehnx> ;)
[10:22] <munzir> Hi, isn't it an inconvience not to have /usr/games on the $PATH?
[10:23] <Henke> A small question from a curious beginner.. How is Ubundu built? Is it a client/server software where I can choose to just install the serverside and then use my CE.Net clients to connect to it? or?!
[10:23] <Gnonthgol> jehnx: Yea, but I an trying to imitate the doing homework but realy I am installing Ubuntu.
[10:23] <psusi> Henke: what?
[10:23] <CarlFK> htrp: you seem worried about firewalls and ubuntu, which isn't needed much like your phone doesn't need a firewall
[10:24] <[TechGuy] > Henke: Ubun*T*u is just the OS... Whatever you install with it could be either client/server or whatever
[10:24] <defuego>    Easy Firewall Generator for IPTables    http://easyfwgen.morizot.net/gen/
[10:24] <[TechGuy] > Mail server, database, whatever
[10:24] <Siddhartha211> I need to know if Verizon DSL works with ubuntu? I searched verizon.net but it doesn't mention linux, so i dont thing itll work.
[10:24] <htrp> what's phoneline got to do with firestarter?
[10:24] <Henke> ahaaa.. oki.. :)
[10:24] <seekr> of course it will, Siddhartha211
[10:24] <psusi> Siddhartha211: do they give you a dsl modem that has an ethernet port on it?  if so, then yes
[10:25] <glauber_sp> Hi guys, I need a Distro which liveCD(orDVD) runs OK to use compilation tools like flex, bison, g++ and openGL. Does Ubuntu work for this purpose?
[10:25] <Siddhartha211> seekr: but someone said that the equipment (router, Westell router) might not work I have to check it out but I can't find anything
[10:25] <Siddhartha211> psusi: it is a ethernet
[10:25] <psusi> Siddhartha211: though if they use a retarded technology called PPPoE, it can be a bit of a pain
[10:25] <seekr> Siddhartha211: Verizon only provides you with a basic hookup - you can configure anything on top of it
[10:25] <CarlFK> htrp: same thing ubuntu has to do with firestarter
[10:25] <koobi> good night everyone :) bedtime
[10:25] <Siddhartha211> seekr: so that means I will be able to use Verizon DSL?
[10:25] <koobi> 3am :/
[10:25] <jbroome> Siddhartha211: yes
[10:26] <Siddhartha211> anyone here currently use Verizon DSL with a router and adapter on Linux?
[10:26] <desrt> hello.  i would like to setup an NFS server on my ubuntu box
[10:26] <seekr> Siddhartha211:  Yes, but as psusi says, you may need to endure some pain
[10:26] <CarlFK> htrp: seemed like you were worried about something for no good reason, (just because win needs a firewall is not a good reason)
[10:26] <desrt> i'm open to other possibly more secure alternatives but the semantics have to be like NFS
[10:26] <psusi> personally, I refuse to pay an ISP that uses PPPoE... it's a bastard retard protocol that never should have been invented
[10:26] <Siddhartha211> seekr: im a ubuntu noob, i just started using it, what kind of pain might i get and how to i "relieve" it?
[10:27] <desrt> (ie: always mounted from the remote host, even when nobody is logged in... and supports multiple users)
[10:27] <llusser> Siddhartha211: make your life easy and buy a dsl router then you just plugin and go
[10:27] <gage> hi. if i build my own version of a package without changing the version string, how is apt-get deciding to overwrite my package with the same version from an apt source? (and how can i avoid this?)
[10:27] <psusi> yea... if you have an external router it's a piece of cake
[10:27] <Siddhartha211> llusser: im going to get the router from Verizon, its a Westell
[10:27] <seekr> Siddhartha211 & ilusser - i believe Verizon provides a combo modem/router
[10:27] <ramza3> is there  a fastcgi install, for example with lighttpd
[10:27] <phatmonkey> I'm having trouble booting an ubuntu system. out of the blue, it has started to come up with "error while loading shared libraries: .... invalid ELF header". after many of those errors on boot, GDM eventaully complains that the gdm user does not exist. I can't even log in as root... it obviously is having trouble loading things
[10:28] <misterii> I tried to unrar with file-roller, it gave "write error" disk space?
[10:28] <daved> does anyone know a way to have a child process fooled into thinking it is a different date than now when using libc time()
[10:28] <phatmonkey> ... and it doesn't know what its own hostname is!
[10:28] <Siddhartha211> seekr: you are correct
[10:28] <llusser> Siddhartha211: if its a combo router/modem then you just go :)
[10:28] <phatmonkey> "(none) login:"
[10:28] <[TechGuy] > phatmonkey: Start kissing your system goodbye. Filesystem corruption probably
[10:28] <Siddhartha211> seekr: im going to have a base router on Windows XP Home, and an adapter (both Westell) on linux
[10:28] <phatmonkey> alright
[10:28] <Siddhartha211> seekr: is that okay?
[10:28] <seekr> Siddhartha211: i don't know the details - never used Verizon
[10:29] <gage> is there a channel focussed on ubuntu or debian packaging? or mailing list?
[10:29] <xukun> Can anybody point me a some kind of howto about how I can sync my smartphone(windows mobile) with linux?
[10:29] <Siddhartha211> anyoen else?
[10:29] <phatmonkey> it looks like I can get all my files off there with knoppix ok
[10:29] <phatmonkey> I'll just reinstall ubuntu again
[10:29] <psusi> gage: #ubuntu-motu
[10:29] <Kr4t05> Ok, so, I'm having some issues with Doom 3's sound system. The audio is rather metallic and buzzy.
[10:29] <seekr> But linux should auto-detect the connection and do a DHCP probe to get an IP address from the router
[10:29] <psusi> gage: btw... bump the version number on the package when you build it
[10:29] <thegladiator> wud dapper release on time ?
[10:29] <jayg> wish i had buzzy sound lol
[10:29] <gage> psusi, thanks.
[10:29] <jayg> at least i'd know i was getting somewhere
[10:30] <st3v3dnd> Is iptables "always on"? I don't see any listing for it in services
[10:30] <seekr> Siddhartha211: But linux should auto-detect the connection and do a DHCP probe to get an IP address from the router
[10:30] <gage> psusi, i didn't bump the version number because i did't want to conflict with newer upstream releases
[10:30] <Blissex> st3v3dnd: 'iptables' is not a dmon or a service...
[10:30] <st3v3dnd> I also just did a scan from shields up, and it doesn't look like it's working
[10:30] <bmk789> how do i make a .deb for a software and submit it for ubuntu's repos?
[10:30] <seekr> Siddhartha211 - I'm just installing ubunto now (on another machine), so i don't yet know the details - I've been using  SuSE
[10:30] <Siddhartha211> seekr: the computer with Linux installed will have a Westell USB adapter
[10:31] <Siddhartha211> seekr: plug and go?
[10:31] <psusi> gage: then add to the end of it... i.e. foo-1.2.3 -> foo-1.2.3-0gage
[10:31] <seekr> but i think it's the same sort of thing in all distros, Siddhartha211
[10:31] <jehnx> bmk789: http://linuxdevices.com/articles/AT8047723203.html
[10:31] <psusi> gage: then when foo-1.2.4 comes out it will replace your package
[10:31] <Kr4t05> bmk789, I beleive you need to submit it to the staff and they evaluate it before it goes into the repos.
[10:31] <gage> psusi, aha. thanks. that'll give me what i want.
[10:31] <orangizer> hi
[10:31] <seekr> Siddhartha211 - do you already have Verizon service?  If so, just give it a try - it may just work the first time.
[10:31] <tododoc> hi
[10:32] <tritan> anyone know what causes this error: `unable to lookup ubuntu via getbyhostname()`?
[10:32] <Siddhartha211> seekr: not yet, im using dialup right now
[10:32] <tritan> was trying to run sudo su
[10:32] <seekr> Siddhartha211:  but it shouldn't be all that much trouble
[10:32] <Siddhartha211> seekr: but i just want to get the details smooth when i do get it
[10:32] <gimmulf> Is there any cool font package?
[10:32] <orangizer> does anyone have an usb printer?
[10:32] <bmk789> thx kr4t05 and jehnx
[10:32] <orangizer> i want to print with hp 1220c
[10:32] <_jason> tritan: I do, paste the first lines of /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname so we can take a look
[10:32] <seekr> Siddhartha211 - you can get help on the net - sometimes one can "over-prepare" for these sorts of things
[10:32] <tritan> sure sec
[10:32] <orangizer> but i don't know how to do it
[10:33] <tenmon> help
[10:33] <Siddhartha211> seekr: k, thanks
[10:33] <seekr> Siddhartha211 - ok - good luck!
[10:33] <tenmon> it seems that my dvd get screwed or something
[10:33] <_jason> topyli: I'm picking that up tomorrow at the library
[10:33] <tenmon> can't umount it
[10:33] <_jason> oops wrong channel
[10:33] <tritan> hosts: `<IP_ADDRESS> localhost `
[10:33] <tenmon> anyone?
[10:33] <tritan> that it
[10:33] <_jason> tritan: and /etc/hostname  ?
[10:33] <tenmon> it's making everything unresponsive
[10:33] <st3v3dnd> Okay, I just loaded firestarter and clicked start firewall, and now the rules appear to be working.
[10:33] <p01n7> whats the default Desktop thing? metacity?
[10:33] <p01n7> to show icons and all that fancy stuff
[10:33] <p01n7> for dapper
[10:33] <bennie> anyone have a good site that breaks down how to install applications and drivers for a tard like me?
[10:33] <juztin> how can i add all my media to my playlist at once?  i asked in amarok, but alas...silence...
[10:34] <tritan> set hostname simply to ubuntu
[10:34] <st3v3dnd> How do I make it so that it is always running, regardless of whether firestarter is open or not?
[10:34] <_jason> ubotu: tell bennie about synaptic
[10:34] <tritan> was blank
[10:34] <_jason> bennie: what drives?
[10:34] <st3v3dnd> Or make firestarter run as a service?
[10:34] <tritan> rebooted after changing it
[10:34] <_jason> tritan: ok so now it reads ``ubuntu'' ?
[10:34] <tritan> yes
[10:34] <seekr> Siddhartha211: (just don't expect help from Verizon, whose reps will probably say "we don't support Linux," which just means they haven't received the encessary training - but it doesn't mean that their service is in any way incompatible with Linux
[10:34] <jehnx> bennie: A video of how to isntall: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5253052326994067125&q=linux
[10:34] <misterii> when I delete files, do they go to Trash bin? how do I empty one? How can I know my free diskspace?
[10:35] <Siddhartha211> seekr: i sent them an emai....so theyll probably say that in their response
[10:35] <_jason> tritan: ok change the first line in /etc/hosts to: <IP_ADDRESS> localhost.localdomain localhost ubuntu
[10:35] <[TechGuy] > grr... where else could the console font be set during boot up? I'm trying to figure out where the difference is between Ubuntu and Debian here, since Ubuntu's aptitude looks screwy under VMWare for me
[10:35] <tritan> k - does it require a reboot?
[10:35] <tenmon> anty help??
[10:36] <jehnx> misterii: Go to a console and type "df"
[10:36] <_jason> tritan: you will need to reboot in recovery mode to edit the file.  Do you know how?
[10:36] <ramza3> stupid q, if I bind to localhost and a port, can I see that port on the outside
[10:36] <jehnx> Well do "df -h"
[10:36] <tritan> _jason i dont
[10:36] <Fenderet> hola
[10:36] <[TechGuy] > ramza3: Not if you're binding to localhost (<IP_ADDRESS>) specifically
[10:36] <Siddhartha211> seekr: are you there IMPORTANT
