[11:24] <vivek> kismet: n what is tht way?
[11:24] <kismet> slantai, you mean extract? man tar, usually tar xvzf filename
[11:24] <Rob125> slantai: .tar files are just a type of compression, not an executable file.
[11:24] <Hexxeh> Nope, Option "UseHWCursor" "0" hasn't fixed it
[11:24] <vivek> kismet: n what is tht way???
[11:24] <kismet> vivek, install and find out, use synaptic won't damage your system if it doesn't work
[11:24] <ds_> Hi all,using which command can I get the list of softwares I have installed by apt?
[11:24] <slantai> kismet: does it matter where you extract to
[11:24] <Cyrus25801> Jordan_U: well it worked but only good enough quality for mobile device
[11:24] <vivek> so i do apt-get install beryl?
[11:25] <Rob125> !beryl | vivek
[11:25] <ubotu> vivek: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[11:25] <neol> vivek: before isntalling beryl u got to isntall drivers only then beryl will work
[11:25] <kismet> slantai, you can specify that type tar --help in the console and it will show yoiu
[11:25] <vivek> noel: i think i hv done tht... just to confirm which drivers??
[11:25] <Jordan_U> vivek, What GFX card ?

[11:26] <imbecile> hey guys, i need a little help with vmware.. I set up an xp vm and its not connecting to the internet.. my vista and slackware vm's work.. any idea how to fix it?
[11:27] <Jordan_U> slantai, What are you trying to compile? Are you sure it's not available elsewhere?
[11:27] <Rob125> logan: folders that start with . are hidden folders.
[11:27] <kismet> ds_, type killall nautilus in console

[11:27] <Rob125> logan: they can be anywhere.

[11:27] <Jordan_U> slantai, Do you know how to use synaptic?
[11:27] <Hexxeh> VIew > Show Hidden Folders
[11:27] <slantai> no
[11:27] <vivek> how do i add the beryl repos

[11:28] <BuFF> logan: ctrl + H in nautilus

[11:30] <kismet> ds_, restart x that will probably do it, press ctrl+alt+backspace (note: it will log you out of your current session)
[11:30] <ds_> kismet: OK,I will do that.

[11:37] <Jamie> My USB wireless fob, an Airlink101 AWLL3025V2, is being detected by Ubuntu, but not recognised as an available wireless networking interface. I don't have much experience, so the most I've done was to unplug it and plug it in again.
[11:38] <Invincible_1> How to install nvidia drivers
[11:38] <Jordan_U> Invincible_1, Restricted manager
[11:38] <Invincible_1> Yes
[11:38] <Jordan_U> Invincible_1, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[11:38] <Invincible_1> No i want to install beryl
[11:38] <Invincible_1> i need 3D suppot
[11:39] <Jordan_U> Invincible_1, Yes, you need to use Restricted Driver Manager to get 3D support
[11:39] <Invincible_1> but the refresh rate is no more than 60 Hz
[11:40] <Hausberg> I have three video cards but I have a feeling that they do not get always the same device node /dev/dvb/adapter0 is not always the same card...? Can I define this?
[11:40] <Invincible_1> If i select the checkbox for 3d support
[11:40] <Rob125> Jamie: have you tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Airlink101_AWLL3026 ?
[11:40] <slantai> im not sure if it is proprietary...  it a program so that you can host games online
[11:40] <Invincible_1> lot a help
[11:41] <Invincible_1> I also have problem with AMI-IA92 modem in Ubuntu
[11:41] <Invincible_1> it cannot dial
[11:41] <slantai> i found a linux version tho
[11:41] <neol> Invincible_1: one problem at a time
[11:42] <frojnd> does Bluez support 2.0. USB adapters ??
[11:42] <Jordan_U> slantai, decompress it ( double click ) and see if there is a readme in it.
[11:42] <Invincible_1> You solved my first, no!
[11:42] <Jamie> Rob125, I seem to find terminal stuff as nonsensical.
[11:42] <imbecile> how can i set permissions for "computer" that i can move files there? i hate having to copy/paste files after a gksudo of nautilus.. there has to be an easier way.. I am the only person that uses this system so i want permissions to move files anywhere on my computer by drag/drop by drag/drop
[11:42] <neol> Invincible_1: do what as Jordan_U has suggested in nvidia driver
[11:42] <neol> Invincible_1: get ur nvidia driver ready
[11:42] <slantai> yeah there is one
[11:43] <Jamie> I'm not eager to mess about in the important stuff.
[11:43] <imbecile> please tell me there is a way
[11:43] <frojnd> does Bluez support 2.0. USB adapters ??
[11:43] <Spee_Der> imbecile, I use mc for doing just that. I use mc in terminal mode.
[11:43] <ds_> :'( My icons still appear
[11:43] <Invincible_1> Sorry, i cannot use internet through Ubuntu, my modem remember.
[11:43] <ds_> :'( My icons still disappear
[11:43] <Rob125> Jamie: it's fairly straightforward. It lays out exactly what you need to type. With what you're doing there's very little chance you'd mess up your system.
[11:43] <Flannel> imbecile: no you don't.  Permissions are a good thing, not having the power to do anything is a good thing.   I have only .xsession-errors
[11:44] <Invincible_1> I need those drivers
[11:44] <Spee_Der> Flannel, agreed....   I know too well about working on this when very tired. It is a life saver mode.
[11:44] <Flannel> slantai: you need build-essential.  What program are you installing?  It may be in the repository
[11:44] <imbecile> Flannel, I want to be able to save to stuff other than my desktop and move stuff there as well
[11:44] <Jamie> Rob125, what's the wlan0 interface?
[11:45] <Jordan_U> slantai, OK, then if it says to run ./configure , make, make install you are compiling from source, see the link from ubotu for that
[11:45] <Flannel> imbecile: You have your home folder.  That's where all of 'your' stuff goes.  What other stuff are you looking to put places?
[11:45] <bentob0x> thx melchior7, that seems to give me indications but I still getting tons of blocked connections via my firewall on port 27669 and I don't know what's going on :(
[11:45] <slantai> thanks of the help guys i'm gonna go read up on the compiler
[11:45] <Rob125> Jamie: wireless local area network 0.
[11:45] <slantai> ok
[11:45] <BlueD> Hello?

[11:45] <ubotu> BlueD: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[11:45] <Flannel> ksivaji: files get installed all over the place, in their correct places.  But you don't really need to concern yourself with where.  It works from anywhere, since it's in the path.  see !wine for help on using wine.
[11:46] <imbecile> Flannel,  ok thats what i needed to know.. ive been saving stuff in my filesystem in a folder i created and it was driving me nuts
[11:47] <Jamie> Thanks, Rob125.
[11:48] <tarelerulz> gyach3 , my system sound , flash player all don't seem to use my usb sound card ?
[11:48] <Invincible_1> The modem
[11:48] <Flannel> imbecile: yeah, put everything in your home folder (that's /home/username, or ~)  Of course, you can create a heirarchy inside of your home folder.  But home folders are life savers.  Especially when migrating/backing up/etc.
[11:49] <Invincible_1> My modem is more important
[11:49] <cRysTaL_ViSion> id like to control up/down limit to my p2p what am i lookin for?

[12:14] <Flannel> vandenoever: you download the source package, compile it, it produces a deb, you install that with dpkg
[12:14] <vandenoever> Flannel: problem is want the source deb file
[12:14] <greg007> just as Flannel said
[12:14] <vandenoever> not make a deb from a tar.gz
[12:15] <Flannel> vandenoever: Right.  That's whatI said.  You download the deb source, compile it into a deb, then install the deb with dpkg.
[12:15] <wols_> vandenoever: what is in your sources.list? do you have any "deb-src" lines?

[12:38] <lance> Hello. I'm trying to set-up a new All-in-one printer. I am able to get everything working except the scanning. It is a Canon PIMA MP180. Can anyone help?
[12:38] <kurtti> do you have a window open on it, or is it open on the terminal?
[12:38] <brad016> nothing is being copied or anything, and if so then how do I stop it?
[12:39] <brad016> kunwon1, any ideas
[12:39] <gdb> brad016: It won't be able to if any process has that as the cwd (current working directory).  If you have a terminal open, say, and you're looking around on the drive, you can't eject it.  Change directories, close whatever windows you open that are looking at the drive, etc, etc, *then* eject it.

[12:45] <Ubntu> Isn't there a tool that lets me retrieve files from deleted partitions?
[12:45] <wols_> darwich: ls -al /usr/local/bin/startxgl.sh
[12:45] <sandman_> Do need to install an add-on in order to be ale to see the special characters in firefox ?
[12:45] <wols_> Ubntu: what filesystem?
[12:45] <wols_> Ubntu: and how did you delete the partition?
[12:45] <Ubntu> ext3
[12:45] <darwich> wols_ ls -al /usr/local/bin/startxgl.sh
[12:45] <Ubntu> Well I used gparted
[12:45] <darwich> wols_ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 124 2007-06-24 12:36 /usr/local/bin/startxgl.sh
[12:45] <Ubntu> So I guess standard mkfs tools
[12:46] <wols_> darwich: it's not executable as yoi can plainly see
[12:46] <wols_> Ubntu: since you already made a new partition: most probably not
[12:46] <Ubntu> >.<
[12:46] <darwich> wols_ what should i do to make it executeable ?
[12:46] <Lundn> Gyro54, dosent work.. another thing i cant choose wap / wap 2 wich is the encoding used by my royuter
[12:46] <Lundn> router
[12:46] <wols_> cause stuff is already overwritten. if you only had deleted the partition intry in the MBR, you could recreate it
[12:46] <wols_> darwich: man chmod
[12:46] <sebo> does anyone know if it's possible to run compiz iwth fglrx/xgl on a laptop with external monitor?
[12:47] <darwich> wols_ huh ? :o
[12:47] <wols_> Lundn: for wpa, you most probably need wpa-supplicant
[12:47] <Lundn> wols_, it says it is the latest version
[12:47] <wols_> darwich: I told you read documentation and pointed you to the proper docs. andything wrong with that?
[12:47] <Lundn> but i cant choose it
[12:47] <wols_> Lundn: you also need to configure it
[12:47] <sandman_> any idea guys?
[12:47] <kurtti> sebo, it's possible
[12:47] <Lundn> how ?
[12:48] <wols_> sandman_: what special characters? most probably your font doesn't have them (if they are little empty squares
[12:48] <wols_> you need a font then
[12:49] <sandman_> you know the special french characters
[12:49] <sebo> kurtti, maybe u know something I forgot? =) it is working without problems with normal x-server, but when I start ubuntu with xgl-session, the external monitor is black, and my cursor is an "X", and the laptop screen is normal, with 3d desktop
[12:49] <sandman_> what I have insted is just blank or the @ character
[12:50] <surviver> hello evry1, got question; is it normal i cant update my 6.10 (64bit) ubuntu to the 7.04 (i just did clean install)
[12:50] <wols_> sebo: the cursor being an X sounds like a missing WM of sorts
[12:50] <wols_> if you run Xorg without WM you get a big fat X as cursors on grey background

[01:00] <moldy> when i try to mount /home over NFS with feisty, i cannot login anymore. does anyone have an idea why?
[01:00] <wols_> neol: use aptitude. it has better dependency resolution. a few things can't be done with aptitude, then use apt-get for that only
[01:00] <sebo> or is it possible to use only the external monitor, instead of the laptopscreen? I use the laptop mostly as desktop-pc. maybe then the 3d-desktop will work
[01:00] <surviver> wols_, u mean the space between - ..?
[01:00] <wols_> Enselic__: i am very sure you have /etc/resolv.conf

[01:28] <RivaeAerya> so, GNOME won't let me set a default action for ANY file it doesn't already have a default action for. How can i fix this? it's in Edgy (i've yet to upgrade my laptop)
[01:28] <Turbooster> sorry for the language
[01:28] <RainC1> wols_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26986/
[01:28] <RivaeAerya> anyone know?
[01:28] <wols_> RivaeAerya: error messages are an important thing
[01:28] <RivaeAerya> i've been asking for an hour now
[01:28] <Leo89> I have downloaded pptp from Web, on my Windows OS. So how to install this package on Ubuntu?
[01:28] <wols_> !patience | RivaeAerya

[01:29] <RivaeAerya> wols_: sorry
[01:29] <Bogaurd> how can I display a list of masqueraded connections under kernel 2.6?
[01:29] <Turbooster> I'm gonna try and come back
[01:30] <wols_> RainC1: it's nice you know about tail, but it woul be even better if you knew how to use it. tail -f /var/log/syslog, _then_ try to start mysql
[01:32] <What_the_Deuce> hi
[01:32] <Leo89> GUys, I've donwloaded pptp.deb from Web on my Win PC, so how to install it on Ubuntu??
[01:32] <Kprofthreat> I was trying to install gimpshop, but when I get to the part where I enter sudo make, and sudo make install, it stops. Gives me "o targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop." Help please?
[01:32] <wols_> Bogaurd: http://www.netfilter.org/documentation/FAQ/netfilter-faq.txt
[01:32] <wols_> Leo89: sudo dpkg -i <package>
[01:32] <kael> hi all
[01:32] <Leo89> but it's on NTFS
[01:33] <Leo89> hi
[01:33] <dehm> hi
[01:33] <What_the_Deuce> Can anyone tell me where the kernel config file is kept on feisty?
[01:33] <wols_> Leo89: copy it over?
[01:33] <Bogaurd> wols_: thanks. I was aware of the conntrack file, but was hoping there might be a more *human readable* alternative ;)
[01:33] <wols_> What_the_Deuce: /boot/config*
[01:33] <kael> may i ask for a lil help? its about some problem syncing my palm
[01:33] <kael> possibly a bug
[01:33] <RainC1> wols_: ok, thx. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26987/
[01:33] <Leo89> where should I copy *.deb files to install it?
[01:34] <tarzeau> Leo89: nowhere, just install them. dpkg -i *.deb
[01:34] <Frogzoo> What_the_Deuce: /boot/*.map
[01:34] <dehm> this is probably a silly question but here goess..  What is the besst script to authenticate with NickServ that has pass encryption
[01:34] <wols_> RainC1: Jun 24 13:32:39 EURIONSIEGFRIED mysqld[13381] : ^G/usr/sbin/mysqld: File '/var/log/mysql/mysql-bin.index' not found (Errcode: 13)
[01:34] <hypn0> Leo89: double click on deb file
[01:34] <wols_> dehm: pass encryption?
[01:34] <What_the_Deuce> thanks wols
[01:34] <dehm> local pass enc
[01:34] <wols_> dehm: that would be irc client dependent
[01:34] <Kprofthreat> !dontask | Kael
[01:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dontask - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:35] <Leo89> ok thanks for your advices, guys! Time to work now ;)
[01:35] <RainC1> wols_: but mysql-bin.index exists
[01:35] <Kprofthreat> I was trying to install gimpshop, but when I get to the part where I enter sudo make, and sudo make install, it stops. Gives me "o targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop." Help please?
[01:35] <wols_> dehm: and rather silly. how do you propose the program decrypts the passwords when it'S stored on disk?
[01:35] <wols_> RainC1: bit dis ^G is kinda strange? did you edit my.cnf under windows or edit it at all?
[01:35] <RainC1> wols_: I don't even have Windows
[01:36] <RainC1> and I didn't know about that file :p
[01:36] <wols_> RainC1: still, where does this ^G come from?
[01:36] <dehm> i was searching and i got some hits  on google but i don't know which one is worth it
[01:36] <wols_> dehm: can you please answer my question?
[01:36] <RainC1> wols_: I don't know. should I check that my.conf file?
[01:36] <gdb> huh odd
[01:36] <kael> if anyone can help, when connecting my palm i got dmesg :   297.332000]  usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 6
[01:36] <kael> [  297.356000]  usb 2-1: device descriptor read/8, error -71
[01:36] <kael> [  297.484000]  usb 2-1: device descriptor read/8, error -71
[01:36] <t1g3r> wols_: ive got the output you needed!
[01:37] <gdb> ^G is the terminal bell
[01:37] <SoulChild> Hey all
[01:37] <t1g3r> shall i pvt it to you?
[01:37] <What_the_Deuce> wols: the command you gave me opened 2 text files, 2.6.20-15 and 2.6.20-16, any idea why. and which one i should edit?
[01:37] <dehm> wols_, let me thing ... i've stayed up all night
[01:37] <wols_> !paste | t1g3r
[01:37] <ubotu> t1g3r: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:37] <SoulChild> What's the name of this programm in the left of this picture http://gnomelook.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/19839-1.png ... the window with all information about your computer
[01:37] <gdb> i think your terminal doesn't support a bell function and whatever is giving you the error is trying to sound the terminal bell
[01:37] <Lo_Pan> gkrellm
[01:37] <wols_> What_the_Deuce: I did not give you such a command. and: you edit whichever you want. you should know your kernel version when you want to change its config
[01:38] <dehm> wols_, it would have to have a lib of sorts?
[01:38] <wols_> dehm: no, that's not it. to decrypt it it needs a password. where does this password reside?
[01:39] <dehm> master pass
[01:39] <SoulChild> Can someone help me? i need to know which programm this is:  http://gnomelook.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/19839-1.png (the window with all information about your compuer)
[01:39] <t1g3r> wols_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26988/
[01:39] <t1g3r> this paste page is brilliant!
[01:39] <dehm> forgive my ignorance
[01:40] <wols_> dehm: so, that master pass is stored how?
[01:40] <wols_> dehm: do you see the problem?
[01:40] <dehm> yess
[01:40] <dehm> well example, psybnc stores the password encrypted in the config file
[01:41] <wols_> dehm: that idoocy of psybnc. how does it decrypt it?
[01:41] <wols_> simply make the config file only readable to yourself and be done with it
[01:41] <dehm> true
[01:41] <dehm> ;)
[01:41] <dehm> im a paranoid fellow
[01:42] <wols_> if you really are paranoid you want a script that asks you everytime for the password. or that gets it from a remote storage thing like an usb stick, but preferably a smartcard which stores the pw
[01:43] <Frogzoo> but then you need a password to unlock the usb - lol
[01:43] <dehm> or a rotating pass
[01:44] <dehm> that's a little overkill
[01:44] <Turbooster> I tried restarting the gdm
[01:44] <kael> plz someone here had some experiences with palm syncing / feisty?
[01:45] <Turbooster> and it says [OK]
[01:45] <t1g3r> wols_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26988/ did you get a chance to have a look for me?
[01:45] <t1g3r> cheers bud
[01:45] <Turbooster> so it should be already running
[01:45] <Turbooster> Is there a log file I could show?
[01:46] <wols_> t1g3r: yes and it looks as you didn't have a connection to your windows. sudo /etc/init.d/netwroking restart. any errors, especially DHCPOFFER?
[01:46] <dehm> oh, i do have a legit question. I can't get identd to work. I'm behind a NAT and I am battling the masqing..
[01:46] <Kprofthreat> I was trying to install gimpshop, but when I get to the part where I enter sudo make, and sudo make install, it stops. Gives me "o targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop." Help please?
[01:46] <wols_> Turbooster: press ctrl+alt+f7
[01:46] <Turbooster> I restarted and X cursor didn't show up, but rather the normal login
[01:46] <zs6jce> quit
[01:47] <Turbooster> what does ctrl+alt+f7 do?
[01:47] <wols_> goes to VT number 7
[01:47] <wols_> which is where X usually runs
[01:47] <Turbooster> what us VT?
[01:47] <wols_> virtual terminal
[01:48] <Raiders32> Hello, where can I find the kernel headers for Edgy?
[01:48] <Turbooster> and what can I do there?
[01:48] <wols_> Raiders32: in the linux-headers package for your kernel
[01:48] <mrsn0> Raiders32 the linux-headers package
[01:48] <mrsn0> :-)
[01:48] <wols_> Turbooster: it's where you use X.where are you now? console irc client?
[01:49] <Turbooster> hm no windows dual boot...
[01:49] <RainC1> wols_: well, I think that the problem actually is that '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' doesn't exist
[01:49] <Turbooster> What's the name of the console IRC client
[01:50] <dehmmy> Turbooster, which one
[01:50] <wols_> RainC1: that is a soeckt file made by mysql when it runs so local programs can access mysql
[01:50] <neol> my totem movie player is not playing any files...  ??? which files do i need to install
[01:50] <Turbooster> one I can run in console
[01:50] <wols_> Turbooster: irssi
[01:50] <dehmmy> ircii, bitchx, scrollz, irssi
[01:50] <dehmmy> etc
[01:50] <Raiders32> mrsn0: are they already installed, or do I have download them?
[01:50] <Turbooster> installed by default?
[01:50] <dehmmy> sirc
[01:50] <mrsn0> Raiders32 you will need to install/download it from synaptic/apt
[01:51] <wols_> dehmmy: that with identd is a problem with your port forwarding. unless you use ubuntu as a router: no ubuntu problem
[01:51] <Leo89> Guys, I need to edit /etc/ppp/chap-secrets  file for my VPN connection, but it's denided. How to edit that file?
[01:51] <Turbooster> like apt-get irssi?
[01:51] <kael> someone could tell me about this msg when connectiong usb device :  device descriptor read/8, error -71
[01:51] <wols_> Raiders32: also get build-essnetial
[01:51] <wols_> Turbooster: yes
[01:51] <Turbooster> thanks a lot!
[01:51] <dehmmy> wols_, ports correctly forward on hardware Linksys NAT to my LAN IP
[01:51] <neol> wols_: totem player is not playing is not playing avi files ??

[01:54] <kael> hmmm plz anyone can help with an usb strange msg...?
[01:54] <kael> seems like usb device not correctly seens by kernel
[01:55] <Enselic__> It appears as if I compile GIMP *faster* on i386 on an AMD64. How is that possible? Drivers optimized for i386?
[01:56] <turbooster> ok here i am again
[01:56] <INIT_6> Wow, there are a lot of people in here.
[01:57] <turbooster> ctrl alt f7 did nothing for me
[01:57] <turbooster> i tried to install the driver for radeon if this helps
[01:57] <turbooster> but I think this is OK again
[01:58] <INIT_6> did you start your Xwindows
[01:58] <turbooster> how do I see?
[01:58] <INIT_6> cuz ctrl alt f7 is your GUI
[01:58] <mrsn0> nice nick INIT_6 :-)
[01:58] <INIT_6> lol, yeah, I have to restart a lot
[01:59] <turbooster> after login I only see the ubuntu-colored desktop and nothing else
[01:59] <turbooster> and I can start in safe terminal mode
[01:59] <INIT_6> I have tried Gentoo, SUSE 10.2. both try to load a modual what makes the kernal crash, So I am trying ubuntu see if it works
[01:59] <turbooster> (that's where I am now)
[02:00] <INIT_6> So it's not loading up. Switch to your other terminal to see if it gives you any errors
[02:00] <Jowi> turbooster, is this a fresh install or, what did you do before gnome startup went corrupt?
[02:00] <INIT_6> like alt+f1-12
[02:00] <enviouz> how do i stop ntfs volumes from auto mounting?
[02:01] <wols_> enviouz: don't put them in /etc/fstab
[02:01] <INIT_6> go into the fstab file and change it
[02:01] <wols_> or remove the "auto" in the options for them
[02:01] <enviouz> k ty
[02:01] <turbooster> not a fresh install
[02:01] <t1g3r> wols_: i got no DHCPOFFERS received
[02:01] <turbooster> no error msgs in other terminals
[02:01] <t1g3r> when i ran that command
[02:01] <wols_> t1g3r: do you have a switch or crossover cable?
[02:02] <t1g3r> well apart from a lot of other text, would u like to see the full output?
[02:02] <turbooster> and I tried to install the ati drivers
[02:02] <wols_> t1g3r: no
[02:02] <SoulChild> Can someone help me? i need to know which programm this is:  http://gnomelook.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/19839-1.png (the window with all information about your compuer)
[02:02] <Aviel> hey all
[02:02] <Lo_Pan> GKRELLM
[02:02] <Aviel> is ubuntu good for servers?
[02:02] <Lo_Pan> SoulChild: gkrellm
[02:02] <INIT_6> I hope so, aviel
[02:02] <SoulChild> Lo_Pan: talking to me ?
[02:02] <wols_> SoulChild: you got already told before: gkrellm. stop asking repeatedly
[02:02] <SoulChild> Lo_Pan: ahh ok thanks
[02:02] <wols_> SoulChild: yes he is, and I am too
[02:02] <Jowi> turbooster, when you say that "after I try to login" do you mean after GDM (the login screen) is displayed?
[02:03] <sahil_> for some reason my windows drives are not mounting anymore?
[02:03] <turbooster> yes exactly
[02:03] <sahil_> i ntfs-3g them wheni git Ubuntu and everything was fine
[02:03] <Jowi> turbooster, to see if the problem is system wide or if it is only for the user you tried to log in with, create a new user and try to login with that. "sudo adduser mytest"
[02:03] <wols_> sahil_: there are error messages. what are they?
[02:03] <Jowi> turbooster, ...where "mytest" is the username
[02:03] <sahil_> wols_ no error messages
[02:03] <SoulChild> wols_: sorry i didn't know that he was talking to me before,... cause only to answere gkrellm is not very informative
[02:03] <turbooster> sec
[02:04] <sahil_> when i open up my computer there are no icons for my windows partitions
[02:04] <t1g3r> wols_: i have a cat.5 patch cable connecting the two, dont havea  switch, i think this cable is a crossover one, ill confirm in a few mins
[02:04] <sahil_> and there a re broken links to folders on those partitions on my desktop
[02:04] <INIT_6> sahil that doesn't mean there not mounts
[02:04] <INIT_6> mounted*
[02:04] <netG>  how about the fs (userspace file system) compiz plugin? what does it do?
[02:04] <sahil_> INIT_6 then what do it mean?
[02:05] <wols_> !effects | netG
[02:05] <ubotu> netG: For help with Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[02:05] <lindog> hi  i am new to ubuntu is there a firewall ?where do i find it to enable it?
[02:05] <StatusXxX> How do you install PHP support to Apache?
[02:05] <INIT_6> could mean you just don't have an icon. where is your mount point? /vol_name
[02:05] <wols_> lindog: you don't need one
[02:05] <Jowi> !firewall | lindog
[02:05] <ubotu> lindog: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[02:05] <wols_> !lamp | StatusXxX
[02:05] <ubotu> StatusXxX: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[02:05] <StatusXxX> apt-get install php5 didn't quite do it
[02:05] <sahil_> INIT_6 but everything was working fine b4
[02:05] <netG> wols_ : thanks
[02:05] <sahil_> i dont know where the mount point is
[02:05] <Jowi> lindog, if you want to configure the built in firewall I would suggest that you install firestarter (sudo apt-get install firestarter)
[02:05] <wols_> sahil_: mount. run it
[02:06] <sahil_> it was SDA 1 and SDA 5 the names of the driver
[02:06] <lindog> ubotu: thanks
[02:06] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[02:06] <sahil_> wols_ just type "mount" in the terminal?
[02:06] <wols_> yes

[02:07] <sahil_> ohhh
[02:07] <daren> Hi
[02:07] <INIT_6> lol
[02:07] <sahil_> 1 sec i will do that, sorry
[02:07] <daren> I forgot my password for my ubuntu, what can I do ?
[02:07] <INIT_6> crack it
[02:07] <daren> Can you tell my how ?
[02:07] <INIT_6> daren you forgot your root password?
[02:07] <turbooster> Jowi: testuser didn't work either
[02:07] <sahil_> wols_ http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26991/
[02:07] <daren> INIT_6: I have no root account
[02:07] <INIT_6> what
[02:07] <daren> I forgot my main password
[02:08] <Jowi> daren, boot into recovery mode, then use the "passwd" command to change the password for that user.
[02:08] <INIT_6> then you don't have linux
[02:08] <wols_> !root < INIT_6
[02:08] <turbooster> (sorry if the name is wrong, it's yellow on white)
[02:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about root < init_6 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:08] <daren> INIT_6: The root account is default disabled in ubuntu
[02:08] <wols_> !root > INIT_6
[02:08] <INIT_6> what
[02:08] <INIT_6> that is gay
[02:08] <basse_> no it isnt
[02:08] <daren> that is secure
[02:08] <RainCT> !root | INIT_6
[02:08] <ubotu> INIT_6: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[02:08] <wols_> daren: boot from a livecd and change your password
[02:09] <daren> I boot in recovery mode now
[02:09] <wols_> or boot in recovery mode and change it there
[02:09] <sahil_> wols_ do you know what all that means?
[02:09] <Frogzoo> INIT_6: sudo -i will get you a root shell, so you can wreak havoc
[02:09] <Jowi> turbooster, if the testuser didn't work then I don't know. maybe check the logs (they are in /var/logs)
[02:09] <INIT_6> lol
[02:09] <t1g3r> argh fucksticks
[02:09] <turbooster> ah ok I'll look
[02:09] <INIT_6> I only sudo anyways but still wired
[02:09] <wols_> t1g3r: don't talk like this in here if you wanna stay
[02:09] <t1g3r> wols_: just checked the wiring on the cable and found out its not a xover cable
[02:09] <StatusXxX> So how did you install the PHP Support to Apache?
[02:09] <t1g3r> so sorry
[02:10] <t1g3r> such a waste of time, i was told this was a xover cable
[02:10] <turbooster> btw is there a way to set it to the default (like a clean install)?
[02:10] <wols_> StatusXxX: you start by reading what ubotu told you
[02:10] <kane77> what are the advantages of using MySQL in amarok instead of SQLite?
[02:10] <StatusXxX> wols_ what?
[02:10] <Frogzoo> kane77: sooo much faster searches
[02:10] <GamezBeCJ> hi there ... anyone knows where can I find information on installing windows printer drivers?
[02:10] <Lo_Pan> !lamp | StatusXxX
[02:10] <ubotu> StatusXxX: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[02:10] <wols_> 14:05 < ubotu> StatusXxX: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP....
[02:10] <StatusXxX> Thanks!
[02:10] <hylje> kane77: reliability, as it is not as likely to die on yhou
[02:10] <kane77> Frogzoo, realy? then I'm going to switch to mysql I guess..
[02:10] <StatusXxX> There is so much stuff goin on that i missed it
[02:11] <Frogzoo> kane77: after about 1000 songs, it's a necessity
[02:11] <AzMoo> Does anybody know of a good standalone starter bar launcher thingo like the one in gdesklets?
[02:11] <Jowi> kane77, sqlite is not comparable to a fullblown mysql install. sqlite is useful for apps that want some sql/database capabilities without having to rely on something heavy as mysql
[02:11] <kane77> Frogzoo, I have about 10 000 and was wondering if it gets any faster...
[02:11] <mezziah> AzMoo: kiba-dock
[02:12] <AzMoo> mezziah, cheers.
[02:12] <kael> help plz.... need help with my palm staying invisible in lsusb...
[02:12] <GamezBeCJ> hi there ... anyone knows where can I find information on installing windows
[02:12] <pescez> AzMoo, if you use compositing avant-window-navigator is definitely the bet choice
[02:12] <pescez> best
[02:13] <GamezBeCJ> hi there ... anyone knows where can I find information on installing windows printer drivers?
[02:13] <Jowi> kael, lsusb list all connected devices. if you don't connect your palm it won't show :)
[02:13] <Frogzoo> kane77: plus it's best to run all your databases on just the one dbms
[02:13] <wols_> Jowi: you can't install windows printer drivers in ubuntu. and asking about windows itself is OT here
[02:13] <GamezBeCJ> apologize
[02:13] <Jowi> wols_, :)
[02:13] <kael> Jowi, first thanx for ur answer, but i made it connect  and pressed sync, but it doenst show
[02:13] <wols_> oops. not you Jowi
[02:13] <GamezBeCJ> I'm just trying ti install a printer...
[02:14] <AzMoo> pescez, ta, I'll take a look at that too
[02:14] <wols_> GamezBeCJ: on ubuntu?
[02:14] <GamezBeCJ> yes
[02:14] <GamezBeCJ> on ubuntu
[02:14] <wols_> !printing | GamezBeCJ

[02:14] <t1g3r> wols_: sorry man any ideas? reckon it will work just with a network cable somehow?
[02:14] <GamezBeCJ> I have a Brother MFC
[02:14] <Jowi> kael, that was not the question you asked. I don't know about syncing
[02:14] <Jowi> !sync
[02:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sync - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:14] <wols_> t1g3r: not if your nics aren't autoswithing
[02:14] <Israfil> hi kann jemand deutsch?

[02:14] <mezziah> Israfil: ja, aber hier spricht man nur englisch, es gibt deutschsprachige channels
[02:14] <kael> Jowi, in fact the problem is due to the usb, the pda seems not to be recognized, even if connected
[02:15] <GamezBeCJ> thanks ubotu ...
[02:15] <t1g3r> nics?
[02:15] <kane77> Frogzoo, so I install mysql-server package?
[02:15] <t1g3r> ah u mean ics
[02:15] <Jowi> kael, so you mean that it does not show in lsusb at all? then you probably need to load a driver for it.
[02:15] <kael> kernel should see the device and install it, but its givin : [ 2281.524000]  usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 10
[02:15] <kael> [ 2281.548000]  usb 2-2: device descriptor read/8, error -71
[02:16] <Israfil> ok thx
[02:16] <Frogzoo> kane77: aye, then you'll need to create a user/password to access the db & plug that into amarok's settings
[02:16] <kael> Jowi, right, it doesnt show at al
[02:16] <kane77> Frogzoo, ok, thx
[02:16] <kael> Jowi may i im you?
[02:16] <Frogzoo> !mysql

[02:17] <ubotu> irssi is a command line interface !IRC client. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Irssi for help
[02:17] <t1g3r> brb restart]
[02:17] <Jowi> kael, sorry to say, I know nothing about palm devices.
[02:17] <faemir> Does anyone know of an xchat - exaile now playing script?
[02:17] <Jowi> !palm | kael
[02:17] <ubotu> kael: A good guide for setting up Palm devices is at http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/PalmOS-HOWTO.html#PC-CONNECT-USB
[02:17] <kael> ok Jowi, but what about usb? in fact i dont think it is a palm problem... maybe an usb problem or smthg like that
[02:18] <Jowi> kael, I think that it is a driver prob. maybe that page that ubotu spat out can help you
[02:18] <RainCT> wols_: got MySQL working, removed my.cnf and now it's ok :)
[02:18] <lindog> ubotu: to run iptables i must log as root now when i installed ubuntu it never asked me to set it is there default admin password - how do i log as root?
[02:19] <RainCT> wols_: thanks anyways
[02:19] <Jowi> !root | lindog
[02:19] <ubotu> lindog: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[02:19] <kael> goin to take a look , thx to Jowi and ubotu
[02:20] <Jowi> lindog, ubuntu uses "sudo". to run a command as root use "sudo command" or "sudo -i" to get a 'root' shell.
[02:20] <StatusXxX> Can i use Apache 1.3?
[02:20] <Jowi> lindog, all users that are a part of the admin group have that option (to use sudo)
[02:20] <kbrooks> lindog, if you ever use sudo -i, please type "exit" when you're finished using it
[02:21] <Jowi> lindog, by default, the first user you created is a part of the admin group.
[02:21] <AzMoo> pescez, do you know if I can turn off the task display in avant?
[02:21] <neol> wols_: i have dowloaded a *.gz file... how to open that with " Ubuntu Package manager " ??
[02:22] <neol> sorry " Ubuntu package Menu "
[02:22] <neol> wols_:
[02:22] <Jowi> !sudo | lindog (read this)
[02:22] <ubotu> lindog (read this): sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:22] <INIT_6_> does the ubuntu server, support software raid 0. I am sure it does and to lazy to read.
[02:22] <AzMoo> neol, you can't, .gz is an archive, not a package.
[02:22] <J_-> what's a good terminal besides gnome-terminal (something light) that will function as a nice full-featured terminal with URLs you can click on and copy/paste right click menu? something that'll work in fluxbod?
[02:22] <StatusXxX> That manual only explains how to install PHP support for apache 2.0
[02:22] <StatusXxX> I wanna use 1.3
[02:23] <lindog> Jowi: whan i type su it ask me for password and one i use to log doesn't work
[02:23] <kbrooks> lindog, use sudo
[02:23] <Jowi> lindog, "sudo"
[02:23] <surviver> hello, i just updated my system to 7.04 from 6.10, now i want to make a bootable cd with the 7.04 is it possible?
[02:24] <Jowi> lindog, read the link that ubotu gave. it contain vital info
[02:24] <ZzzZZzzz>    ...
[02:24] <RainCT> StatusXxX: install apache instead of apache2

[02:25] <Jowi> lindog, "gksudo firestarter" and use your normal password.
[02:26] <wols_> neol: you can't. you use tar for that.
[02:26] <StatusXxX> What repository contains the Apache 1.3 shit?
[02:27] <wols_> StatusXxX: is there a php5 for apache1.3 in ubuntu? heck, is there a apache1.3=
[02:27] <ZzzZZzzz> i'v just said that wibdows is more better than fucking linux ... hheee
[02:27] <wols_> !info libapache-mod-php5
[02:27] <ubotu> Package libapache-mod-php5 does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[02:27] <jrib> StatusXxX: the "apache" package is in universe
[02:27] <wols_> StatusXxX: see?
[02:27] <PriceChild> !ohmy | ZzzZZzzz
[02:27] <ubotu> ZzzZZzzz: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:27] <StatusXxX> :f
[02:27] <StatusXxX> So no Apache 1.3?
[02:27] <wols_> StatusXxX: why don't you want apache2?
[02:27] <kbrooks> !ohmy StatusXxX
[02:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ohmy statusxxx - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:27] <wols_> jrib: see waht jrib said
[02:28] <wols_> jrib: does universe get security patches?
[02:28] <RainCT> StatusXxX: in universe there is a package 'apache', that has probably the latest version of Apache 1.x
[02:28] <StatusXxX> i have /usr/sbin/apache and /usr/sbin/apache2
[02:28] <StatusXxX> i wanna get rid of one of those
[02:28] <wols_> StatusXxX: dpkg -l |grep apache
[02:28] <jrib> wols_: yes, though they aren't guaranteed I think
[02:28] <PriceChild> StatusXxX, there is apache 1.3... it is called "apache"
[02:28] <StatusXxX> apt-get remove apache did it
[02:28] <PriceChild> StatusXxX, apache 2.2 is labelled apache2
[02:28] <wols_> jrib: if there is no guarantee it'S worthless as security update imho
[02:28] <PriceChild> did you look at synaptic at all?
[02:29] <Spee_Der> Good morning everyone.
[02:29] <StatusXxX> yea
[02:29] <INIT_6_> it's not morning if you haven't gone to bed yet

[02:31] <ParanoyaM> Ok
[02:31] <ParanoyaM> my question is : why i can't see windows neighborhood
[02:31] <rem_> .
[02:31] <onts1004> .
[02:31] <INIT_6_> because linux hates windows.
[02:31] <ParanoyaM> :)
[02:32] <ParanoyaM> i see
[02:32] <ParanoyaM> thanks
[02:32] <onts1004> good
[02:32] <INIT_6_> j/k
[02:32] <INIT_6_> not sure, you might have to have a samba server setup on your linux
[02:32] <ParanoyaM> i have it
[02:32] <rem_> smbclient -L -u "user"  ip  Paranoya
[02:32] <rem_> something like that ..
[02:33] <kbrooks> INIT_6, stop trolling, even if you are being funny :-)
[02:33] <INIT_6_> k
[02:33] <ParanoyaM> guys
[02:33] <ParanoyaM> i have no domain in my network
[02:33] <pescez> AzMoo, no options AFAIK about it..
[02:33] <kbrooks> INIT_6, jokes do not transfer over very well on IRC.
[02:33] <ParanoyaM> only workgroup
[02:33] <rem_> or use a smb client like Linneighborhood
[02:34] <INIT_6_> ParanoyaM can your windows box see your linux box at all?
[02:34] <ParanoyaM> dunno i can't check it
[02:34] <StatusXxX> apache2: Syntax error on line 189 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Could not open configuration file /etc/apache2/httpd.conf: No such file or directory

[02:34] <ParanoyaM> but i can't
[02:35] <Jello> Hi, does anyone know perl? (regex)
[02:35] <Jowi> ParanoyaM, see if you have the correct workgroup set up in /etc/samba/smb.conf
[02:35] <StatusXxX> touch httpd.conf :p
[02:35] <StatusXxX> Jello yes
[02:36] <StatusXxX> Use RegEXBuddy
[02:36] <ParanoyaM> jowi, i do it
[02:36] <ParanoyaM> jowi, here is my smb.conf
[02:36] <ParanoyaM> [global]

[02:38] <nhy> does anyone know what the channel for compiz fusion is?
[02:38] <ParanoyaM> sorry
[02:38] <kbrooks> ParanoyaM, you need to set windows to have the same workgroup.
[02:38] <gnomefreak> nhy: #ubuntu-effects
[02:38] <RedParrot> I recently installed Ubuntu on a new computer and the sound is not working at all. I have checked the speakers (they work), and I have turned the volume on everything to the max. The modules do appear to be installed properly and Ubuntu is recognizing that a soundcard (it is onboard). Any suggestions?
[02:38] <kbrooks> ParanoyaM, in this case, HOME
[02:38] <nhy> gnomefreak: thnx
[02:38] <ParanoyaM> kbrooks, what do you mean?
[02:38] <gnomefreak> nhy: yw
[02:38] <wols_> RedParrot: what soundcard? either snd-hda-intel based or some ati, right?
[02:38] <Jello> I just need to have the value between ( and ) (the first ( and first ) ) :s for example
[02:38] <Jello> test (45)" => 45
[02:38] <Jello> How can I do this?
[02:39] <Jowi> ParanoyaM, so the windows machines are also in the HOME workgroup i guess? are they on a LAN? do they have software firewalls? have you tried disabling the firewalls? did you reastart samba after you changed the workgroup?
[02:39] <RedParrot> snd_hda_intel
[02:39] <jrib> Jello: try #perl , that's a better place to ask perl programming questions
[02:40] <ParanoyaM> jowi, yes they are.
[02:40] <Jello> yes, they just say 'learn perl'
[02:40] <Jello> and it's just for one command :p
[02:40] <Jello> I program in Objective-C, not perl
[02:40] <kbrooks> Jello, python's easy: int(''.join(c for c in s if not c.isalpha()))
[02:40] <alexou>  with fglrx driver what are the options VideoOverlay and OpenGLOverlay

[02:47] <Enselic__> Lundn: so youu are connecting wirelessly to a router?
[02:47] <Lundn> yes
[02:47] <Enselic__> Lundn: what does iwconfig give?
[02:47] <Jowi> ParanoyaM, if you restart samba do you get any errors?
[02:47] <SoulChild> Do you think ubuntu is better than debian ?
[02:47] <Lundn> eth1 IEEE 802.11g ESSID
[02:47] <Lundn> and so on
[02:48] <jrib> !offtopic | SoulChild
[02:48] <ubotu> SoulChild: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:48] <JC_Denton_> how do i enable remote xdmcp login on a machine using console only?
[02:48] <Jordan_U> SoulChild, I think that they both have their place, and obviously ubuntu would be nothing without debian
[02:48] <SoulChild> Jordan_U: that's right
[02:48] <Enselic__> SoulChild: If you havn't tried Ubuntu and likes Debian, why don't give it a shot?
[02:48] <phaedral> jrib: looking at 27253, might still have feedback; from virt console or ssh into localhost lynx to google is fine; it's any shell direct in gnome that seems to barf on lynx to google
[02:49] <IdleOne> !offtopic
[02:49] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:49] <Lundn> Enselic__, and some about link quality etc etc
[02:49] <Jowi> JC_Denton_, xdmcp need an X session no?
[02:49] <ParanoyaM> jowi, i am not expert in this but i don't any errors at startup
[02:49] <ParanoyaM> in log file yes
[02:49] <Enselic__> Lundn: what is link quality?
[02:49] <jrib> phaedral: you should comment on the bug
[02:49] <phaedral> i'm not the gearhead who can figure from the printenv to know what's the problem...
[02:49] <SoulChild> Enselic__: i tried both and i prefere debian ,..
[02:49] <Lundn> 93/100
[02:49] <Enselic__> Lundn: how good is it?
[02:49] <ParanoyaM> jowi, but in log file i see errors
[02:49] <Jowi> ParanoyaM, what type of errors?
[02:49] <Jowi> !samba | ParanoyaM
[02:49] <ubotu> ParanoyaM: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[02:49] <Sam234> Why is it that music from amarok plays concurrently with a couple of my games eg neverball however, if I play tuxkart then the sound from tuxkart cannot be heard?
[02:49] <phaedral> jrib: k; didn't really wanna register since I'm actually using debian stable...but I found the but at your site, so there I'll comment
[02:50] <JC_Denton_> jowi not sure but the problem is the machine wont accept direct input so i want to enabel xdmcp via ssh then remote login
[02:50] <justin__> Enoex, any other browser you use?
[02:50] <Enselic__> Lundn: does it work if you turn encryption off temporarily?
[02:50] <Enselic__> Lundn: at the router I mean
[02:50] <Lundn> 2 sek
[02:50] <JC_Denton_> jowi So I just need to know how to enable XDMCP in the console
[02:50] <jrib> phaedral: thanks, though you could just comment on the debian bug.  It's linked to the ubuntu one, so I'm sure whoever is taking care of it will checkout the comments on the debian bug
[02:51] <Jowi> JC_Denton_, check /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
[02:51] <Lundn> Enselic__,  but there is no were i can specify it isnt using any pw in ubuntu
[02:52] <Enselic__> Lundn: are you using the NetworkManager?
[02:52] <ParanoyaM> jowi, what is !samba | ParanoyaM
[02:52] <ParanoyaM> jowi, wait a bit i'll see
[02:52] <Lundn> yeah
[02:52] <Lundn> i turned the roaming mode on now
[02:52] <Jowi> ParanoyaM, ubotu gave you a link on info about samba.
[02:52] <Enselic__> Lundn: can you see your network when you click on the icon?
[02:52] <Lundn> yes
[02:52] <Lundn> and i clicked
[02:52] <Lundn> the icon faded away
[02:52] <Lundn> now it works >S
[02:53] <Enselic__> Lundn: works now? great
[02:53] <Enselic__> Lundn: so now we shall setup it for encryption ok?
[02:53] <Lundn> yeah
[02:53] <Enselic__> Lundn: what encryption do you use
[02:53] <Lundn> i use wpa / wpa 2
[02:53] <Enselic__> Lundn: please be precise

[02:53] <Lundn> wpa-psk / wpa2-psk
[02:54] <Lundn> is what my routes admin interface says
[02:54] <micman> i got ncurses lib error when i install prozilla  is there anyone to help me
[02:55] <Enselic__> Lundn: does your card support that encryption (hardwarewize)=
[02:55] <Enselic__> ?
[02:55] <wols_> micman: only exactly shown errors are good errors
[02:55] <Jowi> JC_Denton_, the gentoo docs are quite good as well: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_XDMCP

[02:55] <Sam234> Why is it that music from amarok plays concurrently with the sounds from neverball however, if I play tuxkart the sound from tuxkart cannot be heard?
[02:55] <Enselic__> Lundn: what is the brand of the card?
[02:55] <wols_> ah you are compiling
[02:56] <micman> ya
[02:56] <Lundn> sek :)
[02:56] <Jordan_U> Sam234, Does tuxkart use OSS?

[02:56] <JC_Denton_> jowi thanks. found this page too which im using http://www.quietearth.us/articles/2006/08/16/Enabling-xdmcp-in-tsclient-for-ubuntu
[02:56] <ubotu> Package prozilla does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[02:57] <eyemean> hi just wondering how many gigs u would dedicate to ubuntu and rest for docs?
[02:57] <Sam234> Jordan_U I don't know but do you think that is the problem?
[02:57] <Jowi> ParanoyaM, It said "name not found". no idea if that is in reference to the workgroup name, the ip address or the subnet.
[02:57] <Jordan_U> Sam234, It would make sense if it were
[02:57] <wols_> micman: dpkg -l |grep ncurse
[02:57] <Jordan_U> Sam234, If it does then install aoss and run: aoss tuxkart
[02:58] <Lundn> Enselic__, dont know >S
[02:58] <Enselic__> Lundn: lspci will tell you
[02:58] <kane77> how can I display specific line in file?
[02:58] <Enselic__> kane77: by what measures? line numbers? content?
[02:58] <Jordan_U> Sam234, the package is called alsa-oss
[02:58] <kane77> Enselic__, line number
[02:58] <ParanoyaM> jowi, so what i should do?
[02:59] <Jowi> ParanoyaM, I don't know how to resolve that. if you didn't find any help in the links that ubotu gave you maybe you can try #samba
[02:59] <INIT_6_> ubuntu install is not creating the hard drive tables right during the install so I can't boot. What is the best way to edit the grub info if I can't even get to the grub screen to edit it. Can I do it when I boot off the cd?
[02:59] <Sam234> Jordan_U Im having the problem with some of my wine games too but the command won't work for them will it?
[02:59] <Lundn> intel corporation pro/wireless 3945abg
[02:59] <Enselic__> kane77: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=397405
[03:00] <Jordan_U> INIT_6_, Yes, it is in /boot/grub/menu.lst ( on whatever drive you mount of course )
[03:00] <Jordan_U> Sam234, Use winecfg and make sure that wine is using alsa
[03:00] <Lundn> Enselic__, intel corporation pro/wireless 3945abg ?D
[03:00] <Lundn> :D
[03:00] <Sam234> Jordan_YOU so should I configure amarok to use alsa or oss?
[03:00] <ParanoyaM> jowi, thank you anyway
[03:01] <dredhammer> ust lost all thumbnails of video files when i updated ffmpeg via svn  how do i get them back
[03:01] <Jordan_U> Sam234, ALSA, use it whenever possible
[03:01] <Sam234> Jordan_U damn pidgin autocorrect lol
[03:01] <Sam234> Jordam_U what is the difference between alsa and oss?
[03:01] <Jordan_U> Sam234, I was wondering about that :)
[03:02] <iTurtle> !language | Sam234
[03:02] <ubotu> Sam234: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:02] <Sam234> Did I say something offensive?
[03:02] <Jordan_U> Sam234, http://www.linuxhardware.org/article.pl?sid=01/03/06/179255
[03:02] <Sam234> Oh yes I did sorry
[03:03] <iTurtle> Sam234: you said the D word
[03:03] <iTurtle> Welcome, nimbo!
[03:03] <Sam234> aoss tuxkart
[03:03] <Sam234> oops
[03:03] <Enselic__> Lundn: if the network manager can't handle WPA for your card, it can be quite difficult to setup. Refer to this though: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[03:05] <Sam234> Jordan_U im still having the problem with my wine games even though they are using alsa.
[03:06] <Frogzoo> iTurtle: you have got to be kidding
[03:06] <Q-FUNK> hi! is there any known cure for the acpi regressions in Feisty?  I have hardware on which acpi worked until edgy but it fails to poweroff since Feisty.
[03:06] <iTurtle> Sam234:Use Cedega for games
[03:06] <iTurtle> ;)
[03:06] <iTurtle> Frogzoo: what do you mean?
[03:06] <Sam234> iTurtle I am but wine is better for 1 or 2 of my games
[03:06] <Jordan_U> Sam234, You might ask in #winehq
[03:06] <iTurtle> Sam2345: oh, ok.
[03:06] <Sam234> I use both
[03:07] <Lundn> Enselic__,  thanks ill give it a shot though :)
[03:07] <Sam234> Jordan_U ok will do
[03:08] <iTurtle> are there any americans here?
[03:08] <Catsceo> yes, why?
[03:09] <INIT_6_> yeah
[03:09] <INIT_6_> I am sure lots
[03:09] <verb3k_> iTurtle, there is a difference between an American and a United States citizen :)
[03:09] <INIT_6_> lol
[03:09] <Catsceo> haha
[03:09] <SlimeyPete> this is IRC. There are always Americans. You just can't ge rid of them! ;)
[03:09] <hideandseek> umm ya
[03:09] <hideandseek> americans are everywhere
[03:10] <hideandseek> so no
[03:10] <hideandseek> w
[03:10] <tictoc> the rest of us are working hard on that
[03:10] <hideandseek> when I run crossover and then run steam, it says steam is already running and it wont update
[03:10] <INIT_6_> I wish, I wasn't in US
[03:10] <hideandseek> but only one copy of steam is running
[03:10] <hideandseek> any ideas?
[03:11] <Jordan_U> hideandseek, #crossover
[03:11] <verb3k_> INIT_6_,  so are you ?
[03:11] <Lundn> Enselic__,  now i am connected the icon at the top right disappeared :S
[03:11] <INIT_6_> I am in USA. But I don't want to be.
[03:11] <Enselic__> Lundn: you are connected through WPA?
[03:11] <Lundn> nope
[03:11] <Lundn> just as before
[03:11] <Lundn> but no icon >D
[03:12] <verb3k_> INIT_6_,  I see
[03:12] <longpig> !crossover
[03:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about crossover - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:12] <longpig> !steam
[03:12] <Enselic__> Lundn: I have an intel integrated card, and before 7.04... hey what versinodo you run btw?
[03:12] <ubotu> Steam can be found at: http://www.steampowered.com/
[03:12] <Lundn> 7.04
[03:12] <hideandseek> ya i know
[03:12] <hideandseek> I'm running 6.04
[03:12] <yrth> hello every one:) can anybody help me out blacklisting my lan driver?
[03:12] <Lundn> the icon where i could choose wireless network is gone >S
[03:12] <bonitao> how can i install video drive?
[03:12] <hideandseek> do you think I should upgrade to fiesty?
[03:12] <Commander-Ape> is it possible to see which automatic updates were installed, and downgrade it automatically back?
[03:13] <Strykar> ok, noobish question, i boot off the old cd, change root passwd, edit resolv.conf and update ifconfig and route with the appropriate settings, but only google seems to work at a normal speed, the rest of the sites time out, and i tired opendns servers too, what could be causing this, traceroute times out for a few sites too
[03:13] <Enselic__> Lundn: before 7.04 I had to setup /etc/network/interfaces, but with 7.04 the Networkmanager handles WPA for my card
[03:13] <Enselic__> Lundn: it can't hanlde WPA2 though
[03:13] <Lundn> okidok1, but not that problem anymore
[03:13] <Hojjat> Hi all. This is going to be the first time I'm installing ubunto. I have 7.0.4 and 6.0.6 downloaded. Which one should I install?
[03:13] <hideandseek> 7.04
[03:13] <Enselic__> Hojjat: the newest usually
[03:13] <Strykar> Hojjat, 7.04 of course
[03:13] <Lundn> Enselic__, on the panel the network manager icon disappeared :S
[03:14] <Hojjat> Well I just thought they are both the latest minor versions of their version category.
[03:14] <StatusXxX> How do i make that i can access /var/www with FTP?
[03:14] <Hojjat> May be I'm wrong
[03:14] <Enselic__> Lundn: weird... what does ps -A | grep Ne    give you?
[03:14] <StatusXxX> Like what is the best FTPD
[03:14] <StatusXxX> easiest
[03:14] <Strykar> has anyone had this issue with Ubuntu 7.04?
[03:14] <hideandseek> can you apt-get beryl?
[03:14] <yrth> I need some help blacklisting the lan driver before the kernel updates
[03:14] <Enselic__> !ftpd | StatusXxX
[03:14] <ubotu> StatusXxX: FTP servers: !ftpd, !proftpd, !pure-ftpd, !twoftpd, !vsftpd, !MuddleFTPd, !wzdftpd - Graphical front-ends: !PureAdmin, !GProftpd (for !GNOME), !KcmPureftpd (for !KDE) - See also !FTP
[03:14] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: depends on your needs, there you have a list
[03:14] <StatusXxX> lol
[03:15] <StatusXxX> Enselic__ i wanna be able to share /var/www
[03:15] <hideandseek> !beryl
[03:15] <Lundn> Enselic__,  a long list where network manager is on
[03:15] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment.  I am trying to get into a directory from the terminal window and it keeps telling me that the directory does not exist. I can't tell if it is because it is a long directory or if it has a space in the name I need to do something different
[03:15] <Enselic__> Lundn: do you have many NetworkManager?
[03:15] <Lundn> 2 sek
[03:15] <Enselic__> Lundn: when you run ps -A | grep Ne    that is
[03:15] <neo1> wickedfool: press tab
[03:16] <Lundn> ohh
[03:16] <StatusXxX> Enselic__ i wanna be able to share directorys
[03:16] <wickedfool> when?
[03:16] <StatusXxX> not just my Home
[03:16] <Strykar> kane77, nice
[03:16] <yrth> wickedfool, if there is a space in the name, you need to use the "name name" parenthesis
[03:16] <neo1> wickedfool: i mean type few words and then press tabris
[03:16] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: you can share directories in many ways, FTP might not be what you want
[03:16] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: who do you want should be able to get your files?
[03:16] <kane77> Strykar, browsing songs is now much faster...
[03:16] <Lundn> Enselic__,  there is a NetworkManager and a NetworkManagerD
[03:16] <StatusXxX> Enselic__ anyone
[03:16] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: everyoneonthe internet? those running Windows?
[03:16] <Strykar> kane77, of course, well done
[03:16] <StatusXxX> Yes
[03:17] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: then you should go for a FTP server
[03:17] <StatusXxX> Yes but what FTP server?
[03:17] <wickedfool> sweet
[03:17] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: do you want a super secure one?
[03:17] <Jowi> wickedfool, for dirs with space in name either use quotes or backslash + space. like this: cd "my desktop", cd my\ desktop
[03:17] <StatusXxX> the one i tryed only shared my home
[03:17] <wickedfool> why does it have a \ following the first word
[03:17] <StatusXxX> Enselic__ well.. they are never super secure
[03:17] <yrth> I need some help blacklisting the lan driver before the kernel update
[03:17] <Enselic__> wickedfool: because without it, the shell treats my and desktop as two different directories
[03:18] <wickedfool> thanks
[03:18] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: if you already setup one, why don't you use it?
[03:18] <Jowi> wickedfool, to indicate a space when not using quotes
[03:18] <kane77> Strykar, now only to get ruby on rails configured and I'm done  for today...:)
[03:18] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: you just need to configure it then
[03:18] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: VSFTP is afaik considered the most secure ftp server
[03:18] <StatusXxX> Is it easy to configure?
[03:18] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: I have no idea since you havn't told me which one it is
[03:19] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: but yes it probably is, just read in the documentatino of it
[03:19] <wickedfool> it's been 12 years since I have been on an IRC channel - no idea why I havent been back sooner. Thanks for all the help, I'm sure you will be seeing me more
[03:19] <Enselic__> StatusXxX: typically all you have to do is edit some system file in /etc
[03:19] <Vich> no
[03:19] <Vich> not /etc
[03:19] <StatusXxX> ofc
[03:19] <Enselic__> or whatever...
[03:19] <Vich> lol
[03:19] <Vich> I'm just messing
[03:19] <lipesco> Hello World!
[03:20] <alex__> exit
[03:20] <Vich> but surely for noobs ubuntu is all about the apt-get and the dpkg
[03:20] <Vich> there should be as much auto config as possible
[03:21] <Vich> I think I installed pureftp, and it just added it's own folder somewhere
[03:21] <INIT_6_> Vich, apt-get is nice. I am sick of tracking down dependince
[03:21] <Vich> then it was up and ready
[03:21] <Vich> yeah, I think we all are
[03:21] <Vich> especially when they aren't listed in the documentation
[03:21] <INIT_6_> lol
[03:21] <INIT_6_> yeah,
[03:22] <Commander-Ape> does the automated update system have an log file?
[03:22] <wickedfool> has anyone done much with setting up VOIP?
[03:22] <Lundn> Enselic__,  ? got any idea why

[03:26] <yrth> jrib, I just don't know what is a module and what is a driver... I just need to know what I should put in there
[03:27] <StatusXxX> Blackgoth how do you define the directory for the user?
[03:27] <Lundn> how do i acces the nvidia control panle _
[03:27] <Blackgoth> in your /etc/passwd file StatusXxX
[03:27] <jrib> Lundn: nvidia-settings is the command
[03:27] <Blackgoth> the only dir it will see is your homedir
[03:27] <jrib> yrth: I'm not sure about how to find that
[03:27] <StatusXxX> oh ok
[03:28] <yrth> jrib, are you familiar with the 8139too.ko driver for lan?
[03:28] <StatusXxX> I don't know my password for account www-data
[03:28] <jrib> yrth: nope
[03:29] <adaptr> StatusXxX there is none, and you should never use it as a regular user
[03:29] <yrth> ok thanks jrib
[03:29] <Chore-Boy> hey guys, trying to get help with virtualbox, the guys in #vbox are all asleep...
[03:29] <taa> i'm trying to install qt4 on ubuntu but it's complaining of sqlite, like if i've an old version
[03:29] <StatusXxX> so i need to create new user for /var/www FTP access

[03:30] <Chore-Boy> yawn
[03:30] <taa> jrib using synaptic
[03:30] <taa> jrib tried apt-get install -f too
[03:30] <taa> jrib in both cases error occures
[03:30] <jrib> taa: what package are you installing?
[03:31] <bobbob1016> for some reason whenever I open a mounted drive, either a FAT32 local SATA one, or one mounted via SMB share, nautilus crashes.  The local one loads after about 10-15 seconds, and after I click cancel on the force quit, but the SMB never does.  Any ideas?
[03:31] <taa> jrib qt4-designer
[03:31] <jrib> taa: pastebin output of:  apt-cache policy qt4-designer && sudo apt-get install qt4-designer
[03:32] <StatusXxX> Can't i make the FTP to work with different port?
[03:32] <jrib> !pastebin > taa (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:32] <StatusXxX> It does not let me choose a port
[03:32] <taa> jrib wich private message ?
[03:33] <jrib> _gpg_: ubotu should have sent you one
[03:33] <_gpg_> jrib my bad ok
[03:33] <INIT_6_> Hope someone can help with my grub file. I have 5 sata drives in my computer. boot device is /dev/sde2. /dev/sde1 is my swap.
[03:33] <INIT_6_> In grub it should be root (hd4,1) right?
[03:33] <Shaftino> !firewall > Shaftino
[03:34] <xtknight> INIT_6_, that's correct
[03:34] <bobbob1016> INIT_6_, sounds right
[03:34] <finalbeta> Can someone help me install a java app please? It can't find the Java VM, but I do have one installed. Other programs work, something is wrong with the path variables

[03:34] <alindeman> Is NTFS write support stable enough to use?
[03:34] <finalbeta> alindeman: yes
[03:34] <StatusXxX> this VSFtpd is not working at all
[03:34] <xtknight> kinda

[03:34] <xx_> I started my computer yesterday and got "error 29: disk write error" when choosing ubuntu (feisty) in grub, same thing happened when I chose Windows XP. I tried reinstalling Ubuntu but when i came to the partitioning part it told me it couldn't write to the disc. I put in the windows xp disc and used fixmbr and that way i got xp to start, and deleted the linux partitions, then i was going to...
[03:34] <xx_> ...install ubuntu again but when i try to create the partitions i get the same thing. "Input/output error during write on /dev/hdb ERROR!!!"
[03:34] <jrib> finalbeta: what are you installing?   I remember when installing gentoo on this server box. That I had to go in and delete some lines or move them around. becuase grub detects the devices different becuase it can't load my two controllor drivers. now the ? is Does anyone know how in the comand prompt of grub how to show the devices?
[03:36] <Kprofthreat> Hi, guys. I got a 60GB IDE hd I'm using right now as basically limbo storage. Got no operating system, formatted as NTFS (courtesy of Windows) and now I'm trying to open it up in Linux, but it doesn't detect it. Suggestions?
[03:36] <INIT_6_> crap, sorry for saying the S word
[03:36] <finalbeta> jrib: http://www.typingmaster.com/
[03:36] <jrib> finalbeta: you probably need sun's java.  Have you installed sun-java6-jre (or similar)?
[03:36] <wols_> INIT_6_: /boot/grub/device.map
[03:36] <xx_> pescez: how do I do that? Grub isn't even installed anymore, and I deleted the linux partitions
[03:36] <hideandseek> i just ripped a family killing fart
[03:36] <finalbeta> jrib: I have the sun jdk which has an jre in my opt dir, how do I make it use it?
[03:36] <IdleOne> !ohmy | hideandseek
[03:36] <ubotu> hideandseek: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:37] <jrib> finalbeta: it's easier if you install it through the repositories
[03:37] <xtknight> lol
[03:37] <jrib> !java > finalbeta (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:37] <pescez> xx_, does windows work?
[03:37] <finalbeta> jrib: will trye
[03:37] <yrth> guys, I need some help blacklisting the lan driver
[03:37] <xtknight> yrth, did you add it to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist..?
[03:37] <xx_> pescez: Yes, now that I used fixmbr it works fine
[03:38] <jrib> _gpg_: were you able to get it in english for me?
[03:38] <yrth> xtknight, the thing is I ma not quite sure what to add
[03:38] <xtknight> yrth, sudo lshw -class network | grep driver=
[03:38] <_gpg_> jrib still have it in french ..
[03:39] <_gpg_> jrib even if i use LANGUAGE=en_US
[03:39] <pescez> xx_, something similar happened to me b/c grub entries aimed at a wrong addres for disk, i mean (hd0,1) instead of (hd0,5) or (hd0,0) instead of (hd1,0)
[03:39] <n> Is there a problem with the ubuntu servers right now? (I have tried both uk.archive & us.archive) also security seems to be unavailable too.
[03:39] <jrib> _gpg_: you tried:  LANGUAGE=en_US sudo apt-get install qt4-designer   ?
[03:39] <taigeR_> sup
[03:39] <xtknight> what about LANG= ?
[03:39] <pescez> xx_, so check it out if it's the same
[03:40] <_gpg_> jrib yes it's still in french
[03:40] <JC_Denton_> xdmcp works but when I go to logout my machine becomes useless until i hit the powerbutton and force a restart
[03:40] <xx_> pescez: I don't think I have grub anymore though. I think what *might* have caused this was plugging in an external harddrive the day before yesterday maybe that messed something up
[03:40] <jrib> _gpg_: ok, I'll just read it carefully...
[03:40] <finalbeta> jrib: I installed a new java, how do I make it the defauld one again?

[03:42] <jrib> _gpg_: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list .  Also, what happens when you try:  sudo apt-get install libsqlite0
[03:42] <Lundn> anyone who successfully have used the daap function in banshee or rthmnbox ?
[03:43] <pescez> xx_, no you shouldn't have it anymore. and yes, i think it's the same kind of trouble i got into. in my case the entries didn't match b/c of an usb hd newly attached that had changed the sdX order
[03:43] <yrth> xtknight, it just returned some info about my wireless... lan is off right now, and I just want to keep it that way.. the thing is, when kernel updates it loads the drivers again and ubuntu won't load
[03:43] <pescez> and so (hd0,0) becme (hd1,0) and so on
[03:44] <n> Is there a problem with the ubuntu servers right now? (I have tried both uk.archive & us.archive) also security seems to be unavailable too.
[03:44] <surviver> hello got little question, i tried to mount - remount my sda4 (its ext3 primary) but he gives errors whole time any ideas i did this : mount -o, rw remount /media/sda4
[03:44] <xtknight> yrth, what does "off" mean?  lan cable unplugged?  ifdown?
[03:44] <_gpg_> jrib http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27003/
[03:45] <pescez> xx_, you can manage it pressing 'e' while grub is showing options or modifying /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:45] <Kprofthreat> Hi, guys. I got a 60GB IDE hd I'm using right now as basically limbo storage. Got no operating system, formatted as NTFS (courtesy of Windows) and now I'm trying to open it up in Linux, but it doesn't detect it. Suggestions?
[03:45] <Hojjat> I only can create on partition on my hard disk. I'm just installing ubunto, and want to make this partition an LVM one
[03:45] <xx_> pescez: okay thanks for the tip
[03:45] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: what version of ubuntu?
[03:45] <Hojjat> How can I do that, in Ubuntu?
[03:46] <surviver> !mount partition
[03:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mount partition - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:46] <Kprofthreat> kitfrog: Feisty
[03:46] <hideandseek> Is it better to run amd64 feisty or i386?  Like will 32 bit apps work with amd64?
[03:46] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: wierd. should have been automounted
[03:46] <xtknight> hideandseek, they will, with a bit of work.  i386 is just easier and better for most people
[03:46] <bobbob1016> For anyone interested, I fixed my nautilus crashing problem, it is was a permissions error.  I used "gksudo nautilus /" and navigated to the mount folder, right clicked it, and fixed the permissions, while it wasn't mounted of course.
[03:46] <MEZON>
[03:46] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: at least all my NTFS partitions were
[03:46] <hideandseek> xtknight, is it better for newbs to use i386?
[03:46] <Rug> hideandseek: there are some problems with apps like java.
[03:46] <xtknight> hideandseek, generally gains with 64-bit are with math and scientific processing, perhaps huge data sets
[03:46] <surviver> hideandseek, if u use 64 bit like me u ll have hard time with internet i got problems with macromedia or video google and stuff
[03:47] <xtknight> hideandseek, yes it is better for newbs to use i386
[03:47] <INIT_6_> what is the better supported gui in ubuntu? kde, or gnome
[03:47] <yrth> no, xtknight, I didn't install it at all (I found this forum note with directions how to install ubuntu when it hangs on loading the 8139too.ko driver)
[03:47] <hideandseek> ya fuck that I'll just stick to i386.  thanks for the help!
[03:47] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: have you checked your fstab to see if the drive is listed?
[03:47] <surviver> hello got little question, i tried to mount - remount my sda4 (its ext3 primary) but he gives errors whole time any ideas i did this : mount -o, rw remount /media/sda4
[03:47] <Hojjat> Please?
[03:47] <Kprofthreat> kitfrog: Well, the thing is I connected it after I installed...but I don't think that makes a diff.
[03:47] <xtknight> yrth, so you want to blacklist 8139too.ko?
[03:47] <Kprofthreat> kitfrog: No, let me check now.
[03:48] <xtknight> yrth, (kinda confused here)..
[03:48] <Rug> Is there a problem with the ubuntu servers right now? (I have tried both uk.archive & us.archive) also security seems to be unavailable too.
[03:48] <jrib> _gpg_: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[03:48] <yrth> xtknight, I know... yes I wan't to blacklist that driver... I think
[03:48] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: that will be the reason then. you want to add a mount point for it. do you know what the /dev for the partition is?
[03:48] <xtknight> yrth, okay.  the name is "8138too" (you just take out the .ko)
[03:48] <xtknight> 8139too*
[03:49] <xtknight> !blacklist
[03:49] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u
[03:49] <nhy> does anyone here have an ibm thinkpad?
[03:49] <xtknight> !anyone
[03:49] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:49] <xtknight> ive used one but not with linux
[03:49] <yrth> ok, xtknight, thanks, I will try and hope for the best
[03:49] <nhy> kk
[03:50] <Kprofthreat> I found it by label
[03:50] <nhy> I read that if you want to keep the access ibm functionality then you have to take some extra steps when partitioning
[03:50] <Kprofthreat> But it won't open, probably need to go and open it from root
[03:50] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: have you read this? http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty/Windows#How_to_mount_Windows_partitions_.28NTFS.29_on_boot-up.2C_and_allow_users_read_and_write_access
[03:50] <nhy> but I didn't completely understand what I had to do
[03:50] <Hojjat> Can anyone please help me with LVM?
[03:51] <surviver> hello got little question, i tried to mount - remount my sda4 (its ext3 primary) but he gives errors whole time any ideas i did this : mount -o, rw remount /media/sda4
[03:51] <fabiovalinhos> What's LVM??
[03:51] <nhy> does anyone know any details
[03:51] <Rug> Hojjat: what do you need to know?
[03:51] <Kprofthreat> kitfrog: I read something about how to write to NTFS partitions, but it wasn't that.
[03:51] <Hojjat> lvm = Linux Volume Management
[03:51] <xtknight> logical *
[03:51] <pescez> surviver, try without the , ....
[03:52] <Hojjat> I just want to create my empty space on the disk as an LVM partition
[03:52] <Hojjat> then install Ubuntu on it
[03:52] <Shaftino> Anyone know how I can make Sound Juicer rip in mp3 format please?
[03:52] <Hojjat> Rug, do you know how to?
[03:52] <Rug> Hojjat: use the "alternate" install CD
[03:52] <xtknight> Hojjat,  i dont use lvm but i use raid...
[03:52] <mahtavamatt88> Need some advice: Which combination of "Xgl/AIGLX/Beryl/Compiz" am i best to use on my pc: E6600 2.4Ghz, 4GB DDR2, and an ATI X1950 Pro 256MB-256Bit?
[03:52] <xtknight> Hojjat,  you have the ubuntu alternate cd i assume??
[03:53] <pescez> surviver, btw default behaviour of mount is mounting rw so you don't need that option at all
[03:53] <surviver> pescez, nope but its kind off odd cause did all my partitions like that only this one wont work ^o)
[03:53] <Hojjat> No way to use the standard CD?
[03:53] <xtknight> Hojjat, oh, no there is no way to use the regular CD with lvm.  you must use the alternate
[03:53] <Hojjat> I don't have the "alternative" cd
[03:53] <Rug> Hojjat: not really...  LVM support is built-in to the alternate CD
[03:53] <Rug> Hojjat: d'load it
[03:53] <ifeelinlove> hej:)
[03:53] <pescez> surviver, try fsck it

[03:54] <Kprofthreat> kitfrog: Thanks, I'm checking them out now.
[03:54] <Hojjat> What if I create the LVM partitions with another tool? Can I then install to them using the regular CD, or do I still need to have the alternative CD?
[03:54] <kitfrog> Kprofthreat: np ;)
[03:54] <pescez> surviver, it would be useful anyway to know what errors come out...
[03:54] <xtknight> Hojjat, using the alternate cd will save you a lot of headache
[03:54] <xtknight> i don't know how to do it, other than by using the alternate
[03:54] <Hojjat> Good. And do we have a graphical installer in alternative?
[03:55] <SinnerG> could it be that ssh listens only on the localhost @ desktop install (how to check btw?)
[03:55] <Hojjat> I'm not a linux guy you know.
[03:55] <xtknight> Hojjat, only text-based at the moment
[03:55] <Hojjat> :(
[03:55] <Rug> Hojjat: you might be able to, but the problem is that the "regular" CD might not have the necessary tools to READ the LVM once you have created it.  The Alternate is the best thing to use.

[03:56] <Shaftino> xtknight, Any ideas?

[03:57] <Hojjat> kitfrog, yes it did help. Thank you

[03:57] <nhy> is anyone running ubuntu on an ibm/lenovo t43?
[03:58] <Hojjat> Rug, I have three primaries, because I have three OSs by now!
[03:58] <xtknight> Rug, why no more than one primary?
[03:58] <xtknight> you could do 3 primary, 1 extended, and logical ones underneath that

[03:59] <Hojjat> xtknight, because you would be stock like me. I have three primaries, and now I only can have one more. But linux needs two, I guess (/ and /swap)
[03:59] <xtknight> Hojjat, you can create something called an "extended"
[03:59] <Hojjat> Unless I'm wrong and I can install /swap on the same partition as the / without using LVA

[04:02] <Hojjat> Rug, can I have the /swap on a logical partition?
[04:02] <xtknight> Hojjat, you dont need a swap partition just to boot.  as far as i know
[04:02] <Pirate_Hunter> what I get when I login is blue screen and this message <Failed to start the X server. It is likely that it is not set properly... I viewed the output and this is what it says <(==) log file "/var/log/Xorg.o.log") - (==) Using config file "etc/XII/xorg.conf". so how can I get my graphics to display again?
[04:02] <surviver> pescez, i can see that it is already mounted so i have to do remount
[04:03] <Hojjat> xtknight, can I put the swap on a logical partition?
[04:03] <xtknight> Hojjat, yes
[04:03] <Vich> violence
[04:03] <Hojjat> Good news. Then I can do some repartitioning and let it go... :)
[04:03] <Rug> xtknight: back in the MS-Dos days you could only have 1 "visible" primary partition on a disk at a time.  (That is how I used to tri-boot OS/2, Win3.11, Dosv6.22) You told fdisk to make the other 2 partition 'hidden'.  WindowsXP still has a tendancy to trash MBR if too many Primary partitions are detected.
[04:03] <toddy> how can i chmod the read-only file?
[04:03] <neol> can anyone go see the pick and tell me what the problem is  < http://www.imagehosting.com/show.php/816973_Screenshot.png.html
[04:04] <surviver> pescez, when i try this  sudo mount -o,rw remount /media/sda5 he gives this : mount: special device remount does not exist
[04:04] <nomike> hi
[04:04] <Hojjat> xtknight,now I'm installing linux with no swap at the moment. I assume I can set the /swap later, right?
[04:04] <Rug> xtknight: so to keep your data safe, 1 primary, with the rest as logical.
[04:04] <toddy> how to config the read-only file
[04:04] <bababian> #ubuntu-doc
[04:04] <rgl> hi
[04:04] <xtknight> Rug, odd.  i've never had trouble.  but i have had windows xp's fixboot destroy a GRUB'd ntfs partition
[04:04] <toddy> i'm in ubuntu
[04:04] <pescez> surviver, it reads remount as a device name
[04:04] <Shaftino> Is there a way to find out where my ipod is mounted inside ubuntu?
[04:04] <wols_> neol: the error message tells you what to do
[04:04] <nomike> I have Edgy Eft installed on a 20GB HDD and want to transfer the whole installation to a 120GB HDD. Any suggestions on how to do that?
[04:04] <rgl> is there a way to have a usb console instead a serial one?
[04:04] <toddy> feisty fawn
[04:04] <qaldune> hojjat: i've never tried that, but i think i would never do such thing
[04:05] <xtknight> Hojjat, sure you should be able to
[04:05] <xtknight> Hojjat, swap isn't crucial
