[05:47] <Ballsy> Trying to run the Live CD on an AMD Athlon 64 w/512MB or RAM...I get as far as 'configuring some drivers.....ok' and it dumps me to a blank screen with a blinking cursor.  Tried the amd64.iso and i386.iso images (checksums on the .iso files passed).  I try that same CD in an old Compaq deskpro 650Mhz w/128MB at work, and it runs (albeit slowly).  Ideas ?
[05:47] <Framed> I'm a total newb with linux in general and I am in need of some help - anyone have time?
[05:48] <Bone> bugalo what are you talking about? i was on uBuntu, like on the desktop and everything, i was adding stuff to the panel
[05:48] <morphix> gr33npho3nix: well i cant get any network activity with those default bcm43xx drivers.. hell annoying
[05:48] <frogzoo> !docs > Framed
[05:48] <mike1> I made and mounted a new home partition and moved all my files (including hidden) not when I try to log in it will not let me (gnome)  from the terminal it looks like my user mike1 doesn't have permission for the folder.  I made mike1 a admin user in a root-gnome session but no change... help
[05:48] <Framed> !docs?
[05:48] <ubotu> I know nothing about docs? - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:48] <bugalo> bone but you can't start ubuntu from hd right?
[05:48] <Bone> umm, what?
[05:48] <frogzoo> Framed: read the pm from the bot
[05:48] <Framed> ah thank you
[05:48] <Bone> well, i poped in uBuntu cd, then isntalled
[05:48] <Bone> then uBuntu started up
[05:48] <bugalo> bone well.. nothing
[05:49] <Bone> afte rmessing around wih the desktop i..
[05:49] <KenSentMe> Framed: or just ask your question
[05:49] <Bone> it froze, i think its my motherboard and i restarted the computer
[05:49] <Bone> the disc was out, and windows xp booted up
[05:49] <mike1> I made and mounted a new home partition and moved all my files (including hidden) not when I try to log in it will not let me (gnome)  from the terminal it looks like my user mike1 doesn't have permission for the folder.  I had to look away...did anyone see my qn above ?  (sorry, haven't figured out logging in BX yet)
[05:52] <Bone> i downloaded livecd by accident
[05:52] <Bone> sorry fo rlang
[05:52] <gr33npho3nix> Bone: the live cd does an install
[05:52] <mike1> frogzoo: still get the -bash: cd: mike1: Permission Denied" error
[05:52] <bugalo> lamer helps lamer isn't it cute
[05:52] <Seveas> gr33npho3nix, but not a server install
[05:52] <ngaylinn> I'm looking to duplicate one install of Ubuntu on a completely different (hardware wise) computer. Essentially, I want all the same packages and configurations. Is there a nice tool to do this, or must I do it by hand? Is there any way to backup/restore the list of installed packages? I'd hate to install each package again by hand.
[05:52] <Bone> yes i know, but i accidently downloaded the livecd isntead of the server cd
[05:52] <Bone> crap
[05:52] <gr33npho3nix> Seveas: i dunno, never tried it, poke around, you may be able to pass it a boot option
[05:52] <Bone> meh, at least this one is only 400MB's
[05:53] <Seveas> gr33npho3nix, it can't
[05:53] <Bone> does uBuntu have g++
[05:53] <jrib> ngaylinn: man dpkg, scroll down to examples (see dpkg --get-selctions example)
[05:53] <frogzoo> mike1: does 'whoami' return 'mike1' ?
[05:53] <gr33npho3nix> Seveas: are you telling me or asking
[05:53] <Seveas> !tell Bone about compiling
[05:53] <Seveas> gr33npho3nix, I'm telling
[05:53] <ngaylinn> jrib: Cool. I'll explore that. Thanks!
[05:53] <mike1> frogzoo: 'whoami = mike1'
[05:53] <Bone> !tell Bone compiling
[05:53] <Seveas> the only way alivecd can do a server install is a manual debootstrap, which is cheating
[05:53] <ubotu> I know nothing about tell Bone compiling - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:54] <gr33npho3nix> Seveas: oh sorry

[05:58] <daxxar> I don't get this. Trying to resize an NTFS-partition using the netboot installer.
[05:58] <daxxar> I pick a size, and click OK. A bit later, it shows the partition listing; no change
[05:58] <frogzoo> daxxar: using qparted ?
[05:58] <Rambo3> try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xdm
[05:58] <daxxar> frogzoo, not, the console-tool
[05:59] <daxxar> In syslog, I find that ntfsresize has been checking consistency, got to 89.79 percent complete, then nothing more about it.
[05:59] <Tommy2k4> Rambo3, me?
[05:59] <frogzoo> daxxar: cool - just don't use gparted, it's broken for ntfs

[06:06] <Ballsy> The i386.iso Live CD works on an old Compaq Deskpro 650Mhz/128MB RAM desktop at work, but dumps me to a blank screen with blinking cursor (after sitting at 'configuring some drivers....ok') when I try it on my AMD Athlon 64 at home.
[06:07] <Ballsy> Advice ?
[06:07] <Ballsy> (sorry if someone's already answered....I have scrollback buffer access now  <g>)
[06:07] <soldier> hi
[06:07] <soldier> need help
[06:07] <mike1> frogzoo:  I made the change and I'm rebooting.... I have no clue why 112 was there (maybe when I assigned the profile admin rights)
[06:07] <stefg> Ballsy: the CD needs at least 256 MB RAM... HW-req's not met... X won't start
[06:08] <Dial_tone> For evolution & ISP pop3 mail do you want spamassassin or spamc?
[06:08] <Ballsy> stefg, the thing is, it DID work on the OLD pc, but won't work on the NEW PC (Athlong 64 w/512MB ram)
[06:08] <zaba> hello You shows problem with (from) at switching on mums me error siema apache2 and error is in (to) rewrite because shows catalog is pass away in which (who) file catalog not .htaccess as I enter on server
[06:08] <soldier> i want to know if i can install and play call of duty in ubuntu dapper?
[06:08] <stefg> Ballsy: ah ok, now i understand
[06:08] <deltron> soldier: yeah, with cedega
[06:08] <soldier> do i jhave to buy that?
[06:08] <Gullstad> !tell soldier about wine
[06:09] <soldier> have&
[06:09] <Ballsy> stefg, at least one of us does.  I'm baffled.  :)   Even tried the amd64.iso on the home box, to no avail.
[06:09] <Gullstad> !wine
[06:09] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[06:09] <saiko> as far as i know the root account is disabled by default in ubuntu, but there should be a way to switch in it from console? i try to type su and then the password i think is correct, but no luck - invalid password, what do i do wrong ?
[06:09] <deltron> cedega cvs should work
[06:09] <stefg> Ballsy: ATI vga?... :-)
[06:09] <deltron> I got wow working in cedega cvs
[06:09] <Ng> saiko: sudo -i
[06:09] <Ng> !root > saiko
[06:10] <tomasz> hi - just wondering - why I cannot find the Opera 9 in my Add/Remove ... tool while it is being announced on the Ubuntu main web page as installable "With just a few clicks of the mouse" ... ?
[06:10] <mwe> saiko: the root account is not disabled. nothing will work if it is. the password is not set by default though
[06:10] <saiko> thx Ng
[06:10] <Ng> tomasz: is the commercial applications bit ticked? and do you have all the latest updates?
[06:10] <soldier> is wine cedega cvs free?
[06:10] <mike1> frogzoo:  still didn't work, when I try to log into gnome I get the session to start the erroe say it can't create the .gnome and .gome2 dirctories
[06:10] <saiko> thx mwe

[06:12] <Guest669> Hello
[06:12] <ajayc> hi
[06:12] <Ballsy> stefg, not on the new computer...SiS 760 display adapter
[06:12] <soldier> is wine cedega cvs free?
[06:12] <ajayc> soldier, no
[06:12] <soldier> how much is it?
[06:13] <tomasz> Ng: I see. Thanks.
[06:13] <mwe> the cvs version is free of charge I believe
[06:13] <soldier> so will i be able to p[lay cod in it?'
[06:13] <jackfrost> does anyone know how I can find the MAC address of my wireless card with network-manager-gnome or through the terminal?
[06:13] <frogzoo> mike1: ?
[06:13] <mwe> soldier: don't count on it
[06:13] <soldier> okay
[06:13] <lz1gjd> though its not complete, there are some libraries missing as far as i know
[06:13] <mwe> soldier: they have a list of supported games
[06:13] <soldier> send me a link please
[06:13] <soldier> ?
[06:14] <frogzoo> jackfrost: ifconfig eth1 up (or whatever); ifconfig |grep eth1
[06:14] <jackfrost> w00t thanks frogzoo!
[06:14] <mikechml> er
[06:14] <stefg> Ballsy: so the Live-CD hardware detection doesn't recognize it, it seems. you could try to switch to the console [alt-ctrl-f1]  and do a manual 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' there to get X running. sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart afterwards to restart X with the new conf
[06:14] <mikechml> it might not be eth1
[06:14] <mikechml> mine's ra0
[06:15] <KenSentMe> soldier: check http://transgaming.com
[06:15] <PreZLaptop> btw - on windows, what is the 'alternative' to select (ie. to bypass the 1024 limit)?
[06:15] <mwe> soldier: http://www.google.com/search?&q=cedega
[06:15] <Ballsy> stefg, at what point would I issue the ctrl-alt-f1 ?
[06:16] <jackfrost> cool, need that to connect to my wifi network here
[06:16] <PreZLaptop> oops, wrong channel
[06:16] <stefg> when you looking at the blinking cursor instaed of a desktop
[06:16] <lz1gjd> soldier: u could use some torrent site like demonoid, but i don't think thats legal
[06:17] <mikechml> there's scripts available that'll get the latest cvs version and set it up
[06:17] <Ballsy> stefg, cuz I tried that last night but got no results.  Will have to retry tonight I guess.  Will sift through wiki etc. as well, as I'm SURE I saw someone else report this problem....just can't FIND the damned post... <g>
[06:17] <pder> i recently purchased a microcomputer system.  i was curious if linux supported keyboards because i wanted to input some text into my computer system.
[06:17] <stefg> Ballsy: i guess there must be even a special boot parameter to use only vesa-VGA
[06:17] <gr33npho3nix> pder: if linux supports keyboards?
[06:18] <^glue^> Hey guys, there are 3 files available to download (iso, list, and manifest). Do I download the 3 and burn them or do I just need the iso file?
[06:18] <gr33npho3nix> pder: i owuld say yes unless i missed a detail in that question
[06:18] <jackfrost> um...yes pder.
[06:18] <Ballsy> stefg, if there is, how would I interrupt the Live CD startup process to pass an arg to the kernel?
[06:18] <Gorlist> can anyone recommend a easy program to unpack .rar files?
[06:18] <kalosaurusrex> !ssh
[06:18] <ubotu> ssh is the Secure SHell protocol (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SSHHowto). Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows, which can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[06:18] <mwe> godtvisken: unrar
[06:19] <stefg> Ballsy: correct
[06:19] <mwe> Gorlist: unrar
[06:19] <jackfrost> I'm playing mp3's right now, I'd say linux supports keyboards
[06:19] <Gorlist> right
[06:19] <Gorlist> thanks
[06:19] <pder> what i would like to do is input text into my computer system using a keyboard and have the text displayed on a monitor.  i would then like to save this data to a fixed disk, and be able to send this data to a line printer.  is this possible using linux?
[06:19] <stefg> Ballsy: right at the beginning, in the boot menu press ESC
[06:19] <phunkalicious> mwe: mail-notification
[06:19] <phunkalicious> :D
[06:20] <Ballsy> stefg, ahhh....thanks.  I'll see if I can find a proper parm.  I see alot of   acpi=off  recommendations, but I"m not sure that'd cure what ails me....
[06:20] <mwe> phunkalicious: what about it? some setting or what?
[06:20] <phunkalicious> no, thats the evolution tray icon, in case you wanted to know
[06:21] <mwe> phunkalicious: a seperate package?
[06:22] <frogzoo> pder: linux will support pretty much any pc's keyboard perfectly
[06:22] <phunkalicious> yep
[06:22] <mwe> phunkalicious: I think it's not evolution specific but a generic mail notifier though
[06:24] <kennyt> how do you manually boot the ppc install cd from open firmware?
[06:24] <harisund> How do I find out all the environment variables? I type "sudo visudo" to modify the sudoers file, and for some reason it opens it in nano. I want it to open it in vi?

[06:28] <soldier914> do i HAVE to pay for renewing my account or is it optional?
[06:28] <gregg__> abhinay: vlc can do it too, and it has a GUI
[06:29] <mwe> arachnion: or edit xorg.conf by hand
[06:29] <arachnion> ill try that
[06:29] <gregg__> soldier914: what kind of account?

[06:30] <abhinay> gregg__, i open the disc in mplayer by  clicking VCD > Open Disc...  , it is saying  Failed to open vcd://5
[06:30] <scared> ok thank you.
[06:31] <arachnion> mwe... dual monitor is something i can worry about later, right?
[06:31] <abhinay> when i tried to copy the DAT file (video file) from the disk to my system , i got  :  Error "I/O error" while copying "/media/cdr...SEQ01.DAT".
[06:31] <gregg__> abhinay: vcd://5?
[06:31] <stefg> Ballsy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions could be intresting
[06:31] <gregg__> abhinay: try "mplayer vcd://" on commandline
[06:32] <Imme-emosol> wildman Why not be polite, I like it that way. :P But I guess that's not how things go @ irc-channel... :)
[06:32] <mwe> arachnion: yeah I'd get to work with a single monitor first
[06:32] <abhinay> gregg__, i got Audio: no sound
[06:32] <abhinay> Starting playback...
[06:32] <abhinay> V:   0.0   0/  0 ??% ??% ??,?% 0 0
[06:32] <abhinay> Exiting... (End of file)
[06:32] <wildman> Imme-emosol, of course, being polite is preferred, just try not to be "so" polite, when asking questions: just ask the question, you can skip the "can I ask something?" part ;)
[06:32] <mike1_> frogzoo:  thanks, now on to wireless issues :)
[06:33] <gregg__> abhinay: strange, maybe your vcd is not ok? give vlc a try
[06:33] <soldier914> winex is cedega?
[06:33] <deltron> yes soldier914
[06:33] <deltron> pretty much cedega
[06:33] <deltron> but free
[06:33] <deltron> though cedega seems to work a lot easier
[06:33] <soldier914> but it takes me to a ft site
[06:33] <Imme-emosol> wildman: Ah okay. :) Maybe you can help me out, I'm on a laptop but I've got black borders around my display. In text-mode it's the same.
[06:33] <sharms> wildman, Imme-emosol: Being terse can be quite polite depending on the forum
[06:33] <abhinay> gregg__, not playing in vlc also
[06:33] <kalosaurusrex> anyone good with ssh?  I'm trying to figure out how to make ssh use port 80 instead of 22.  I've changed the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file to port 80 but I can't connect to it. when I change it back it works.  router is setup correctly with port forwarding port 80 to my system, I've verified with firestarter that port 80 is open for anyone..what am I missing?
[06:33] <soldier914> i dont know what to do from there
[06:33] <sharms> !tell Imme-emosol about resolution
[06:34] <soldier914> ftp*
[06:34] <Jeruvy> kalosaurusrex: do you havbe anything else on port 80?
[06:34] <Jeruvy> s/havbe/have
[06:34] <deltron> soldier914: what link? msg me it
[06:34] <soldier914> k
[06:34] <wildman> Imme-emosol, you are not using the laptop's optimal resolution
[06:34] <Ng> kalosaurusrex: when you've switched it over, does "telnet localhost 80" show an SSH connection string?
[06:34] <kalosaurusrex> no.  apache and no other web service is configure for port 80, that I can tell..
[06:34] <gregg__> abhinay: in this I'd say the vcd or your drive is to be blamed... you might want to check permissions to your cd/dvd device thoough
[06:34] <gregg__> abhinay: check whether it works as root (sudo=
[06:34] <Imme-emosol> sharms tell me about opening a !tell me about resolution in irssi. :D
[06:34] <Imme-emosol> I can see Act: 1
[06:34] <mwe> soldier914: http://transgaming.org/subscription/subscribe.html
[06:34] <abhinay> gregg__, Yes iam able to play in xine
[06:35] <frogzoo> mike1_: cool, enjoy
[06:35] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: yes that works
[06:35] <soldier914> yes?
[06:35] <wildman> Imme-emosol, laptop's LCD in particular have that small nicety: if not being used at full resolution, the screen is not 'stretched' to take the whole viewable area
[06:35] <sharms> Imme-emosol: alt-1
[06:35] <gregg__> abhinay: no clue what's wrong then
[06:35] <Ng> kalosaurusrex: then the next step would be to disable firestarter and try again from outside
[06:35] <mwe> soldier914: you asked about the price right? there it is
[06:35] <Imme-emosol> wildman how can i figure out the resolution?
[06:35] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: okay thanks!
[06:35] <blekos> hello ppl
[06:35] <Imme-emosol> In my xorg.conf it says it's way bigger then irl...
[06:35] <blekos> its been awhile :)
[06:35] <mwe> soldier914: I'd check the list of supported games first though
[06:36] <abhinay> gregg__, why it is not copying to my disk , when i tried to copy it , it is saying Error "I/O error" while copying "/media/cdr...SEQ01.DAT".
[06:36] <soldier914> where is it?
[06:36] <blekos> does anybody had keyboard problems with the new release?
[06:36] <Rambo3> !info elisa breezy
[06:36] <ubotu> Package elisa does not exist in breezy
[06:36] <mwe> soldier914: there are a few handfulls that are working 100%
[06:36] <mwe> soldier914: where is what
[06:36] <soldier914> the list
[06:36] <soldier914> should i google it?
[06:36] <blekos> i am trying to use greek keyboard but cannot get the accent(?) over the letters
[06:36] <wildman> Imme-emosol, way bigger than what? url?
[06:36] <wildman> sorry
[06:36] <wildman> Imme-emosol, way bigger than what? *irl ?
[06:36] <mwe> soldier914: please spend a minute clicking about on the site
[06:36] <gregg__> abhinay: vcd broken... they use a less safe scheme for error correction than data cd-roms
[06:36] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: am I correct that the command is ssh -p 80 <ip> ?
[06:37] <Imme-emosol> wildman > *in real life
[06:37] <mwe> soldier914: or should I do it for, then paste the direct link?
[06:37] <billybennett> How would I run 2 commands togeather.. with a pipe?
[06:37] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: to make ssh use port 80 on THIS computer to connect to my other computer. hehe
[06:37] <wildman> Imme-emosol, oups :) thx
[06:37] <wildman> Imme-emosol, right now, I think you have it way smaller anyway
[06:37] <abhinay> gregg__, is there any way to copy it ...
[06:37] <Ng> kalosaurusrex: at this stage it'll be easier to just do "telnet ip 80", if you get the ssh connect string then all should be well
[06:37] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: ahh okay
[06:37] <mwe> soldier914: just a sec. going to transgaming.org ...
[06:38] <wildman> Imme-emosol, cannot find an easy way here to check the resolution, other than pressing my LCD's (not laptop) Info button :)
[06:38] <wildman> Imme-emosol, do you know which is your laptop's max resolution?
[06:38] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: well that works..
[06:38] <theBeno> Anyone know where I can get some help with duel monitors?
[06:38] <mwe> soldier914: hold on, clicking on games database
[06:38] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: I can telnet to it.
[06:38] <Ng> kalosaurusrex: then try with ssh -p 80
[06:38] <soldier914> k
[06:38] <Ng> kalosaurusrex: if that still works, the problem is firestarter
[06:38] <mwe> soldier914: here it is http://transgaming.org/gamesdb/
[06:38] <mwe> soldier914: why didn't you just go there?
[06:38] <Imme_emosol> wildman sorry I closed my terminal window somehow.  :P
[06:38] <arachnion> mwe, my settings seem better now, but i still cant startx... still EE no devices found
[06:39] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: it just sits there so far..
[06:39] <gregg__> abhinay: dd with conv=noerror,sync
[06:39] <wildman> Imme-emosol, do you know which is your laptop's max resolution?
[06:39] <mwe> arachnion: did you enter correct info to sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[06:39] <Ng> kalosaurusrex: that might be a DNS thing, leave it for 30 seconds or so
[06:39] <soldier914> yeah it has it
[06:39] <Imme_emosol> wildman > no, how can I figure this out?
[06:39] <wildman> Imme-emosol, by reading the specs
[06:39] <mwe> soldier914: as fully supported?
[06:39] <wildman> Imme-emosol, which laptop do you have?
[06:39] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: klk
[06:39] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: thanks for your help
[06:39] <Ng> np
[06:40] <soldier914> i don't know i just see it in the list
[06:40] <soldier914> in c
[06:40] <Imme_emosol> wildman > A Toshiba Sattelite Pro 4200 Series
[06:40] <alakdan> anyone using xen here? just wondering if you know of xen enabled ubuntu kernel image
[06:40] <mwe> soldier914: look at the page
[06:40] <Imme_emosol> wildman > State of the art. :P   I'll try to look it up on internet then.
[06:40] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: error: ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host
[06:40] <wildman> Imme-emosol, looking for it now too :)
[06:41] <mwe> soldier914: it says 4 of 5 starts which means mostly working
[06:41] <Ng> kalosaurusrex: hmm, I'm not sure offhand, check /var/log/auth.log and /var/log/syslog
[06:41] <mwe> soldier914: further it's not officially supported by transgaming. it will probably be ok
[06:41] <arachnion> mwe, should i disconnect my secondary monitor, perhaps>
[06:41] <arachnion> and reboot
[06:42] <arachnion> or startx then or something... dunno

[06:43] <calloc> ive tried to setup htaccess on one of my apache dirs, just doesnt seem to be working, anyone any ideas??
[06:43] <mwe> soldier914: I thought you meant united offensive. still 4 of 5 starts though
[06:43] <gregg__> Imme_emosol: sounds like a job for screen
[06:43] <soldier914> yeah that too
[06:43] <soldier914> i play that mostly
[06:43] <gregg__> maybe this stupid bot knows about screen?
[06:43] <gregg__> !screen
[06:43] <ubotu> screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[06:43] <mwe> arachnion: maybe you already answered but are you sure you answered all questions correctly?
[06:44] <kalosaurusrex>  Ng: nothing of much interest in either of those. rawr
[06:44] <arachnion> no, ofcourse im not sure
[06:44] <arachnion> btw, most of the auto-detection fails i think
[06:44] <Imme_emosol> !screen > wf
[06:44] <user-land> thank you, subhuman, the nvidia driver is working well.
[06:44] <Imme_emosol> !screen < wf
[06:44] <ubotu> I know nothing about screen < wf - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:44] <mwe> soldier914: personally I play games in windows because they generally run better
[06:45] <Subhuman> user-land, oh good :D
[06:45] <arachnion> theres just a detection problem or something
[06:45] <mwe> soldier914: and most games I play don't run in linux at all
[06:45] <soldier914> oh
[06:45] <Guest477> !webhost

[06:45] <wildman> Imme-emosol, http://www.arcetri.astro.it/~lfini/LinuxLaptops/Toshiba.Sat.Pro.4200/ might help you
[06:45] <Imme_emosol> grmbl how do I do !screen to just me?
[06:45] <stefg> !fixres > bikini
[06:45] <user-land> this time i enabled kernel interference though in dpkg-reconfigure, Subhuman, is that good, it was on 'No' by default.
[06:46] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: hmm I changed to debug.  it says binding to port 80 on <IP_ADDRESS>--shouldn't that be 127?
[06:46] <gregg__> !screen > Imme_emosol
[06:46] <wildman> Imme-emosol, it looks like 800x600 is the max res supported by your "state of the art" laptop
[06:46] <mwe> soldier914: I'm also to lazy to spend hours or days just getting the games to run
[06:46] <soldier914> lol
[06:46] <soldier914> wow?
[06:46] <XenonG> ?
[06:47] <Subhuman> user-land, im not sure, i left it off, but if you get any issues with it just switch it off ya know?
[06:47] <user-land> ok :-)
[06:47] <arachnion> gah... ill have to ask my linux-expert friend, this is just me messing
[06:47] <DavidJ> how would I set up my laptop's native resolution of 1440x900?
[06:47] <studprog> hi all --- i've got this problem ... i'm trying to use debian installer to make a hands off installation of Ubuntu across a network ...  currently i'm using preseed/late_command to 1) fetch a postinstall script 2) chmod it to be executable 3) run it ...  - the first command in the postinstall script is to chroot into /target - but it seems that the commands thereafter isn't run (amongst others to update sources.list and install additional packages
[06:47] <Imme_emosol> wildman: 2 bad. thnx for the help
[06:47] <studprog> ) .... my question is : where should i chroot? and when/where -- in the preseed command or in the script (which does not seem to work)
[06:47] <arachnion> o/
[06:47] <soldier914> what do i do with this here?
[06:47] <soldier914> http://cvs.transgaming.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/
[06:47] <wildman> Imme-emosol, welcomed, good luck
[06:47] <Imme_emosol> wildman: thnx anyway.
[06:48] <soldier914> can someone tell me what to do in that link?
[06:48] <soldier914> so save it and install it
[06:48] <mwe> soldier914: I believe there are instructions on the site somewhere
[06:49] <Imme_emosol> wildman what was the url again I had to type it and probably typed something wrong since my browser does not agree with me...
[06:49] <Viper550> I know what the hot addon for an Ubuntu desktop is right now...
[06:49] <kennyt> is there a smaller graphical livecd/installer?
[06:49] <Viper550> no
[06:49] <mwe> soldier914: you need to compile it yourself. install all the nececary ubuntu development packages first or you cant
[06:49] <wildman> Imme-emosol, http://www.arcetri.astro.it/~lfini/LinuxLaptops/Toshiba.Sat.Pro.4200/ might help you
[06:49] <polpak> kennyt, smaller in what respect?
[06:49] <Imme_emosol> tnx
[06:50] <XenonG> Alternative CD or something is the only way
[06:50] <wildman> Imme-emosol, welcomed
[06:50] <user-land> is there an easy way to move home to its own partition ?
[06:50] <kennyt> polpak: to fit on a 650 MB CD
[06:50] <stefg> user-land: /quite/ easy
[06:50] <mwe> user-land: yes
[06:50] <feydin> hi there, during startup at the point where "checking all filesystems" my screen becomes black, no error message, but he tells me something about reiserfs and that 0 actions are replayed.... is that normal?
[06:50] <mwe> user-land: just mount the partition on /home
[06:50] <user-land> thank you, mwe.
[06:50] <Viper550> Anyone?
[06:50] <mwe> user-land: move the data there first though
[06:50] <Paladine> anyone know how to change from metacity to fluxbox in ubuntu?
[06:50] <XenonG> Feydin, Wait a few minutes and see.
[06:51] <pdc303> Hi, I just installed alternate-6.0.6. Why would xorg mouse driver 'void' not be present?
[06:51] <mwe> user-land: mounting it else where while moving
[06:51] <Paladine> I can't find anywhere to set window manager up
[06:51] <XenonG> Mine last time was like this.
[06:51] <sztanphet> what whoulsd i set to access my desktop from the net on ubuntu
[06:51] <kennyt> polpak: i have 650MB CD-RWs and I can remove some unnecessary mess from the /usr tree so that the image is < 650 MB, but can't make it bootable
[06:51] <feydin> XenonG, he continues booting
[06:51] <sztanphet> should
[06:51] <mwe> user-land: I mean if /home already contains user data
[06:51] <feydin> XenonG, just wanted to now why this happens
[06:51] <wildman> xota, hola, but this is an English-only speaking channel
[06:52] <XenonG> Heh, mine way like this when I use Microsoft Vitual PC 2004 dude.
[06:52] <wildman> xota, "/join #ubuntu-es" para espaol
[06:52] <XenonG> Had to wait an extra 1 minute
[06:53] <roostishaw> what else besides #!/usr/bin/perl can i put at the very beginning of a perl script, to have it interpreted correctly?
[06:53] <Guest477> !Microsoft Vitual PC > Guest477

[06:53] <bikini> how do i change the resolution of my monitor?
[06:53] <CarlFK> bikini: system, prefs, screen res
[06:53] <kennyt> Is there a way to write the LiveCD to a disk partition and boot from that?
[06:53] <stefg> bikini: did you get the pm from ubotu?
[06:54] <bikini> stefg: yeah send it again, i accidently closed xchat
[06:54] <CarlFK> kennyt: why not just install?
[06:54] <user-land> mwe, would that be correct when i am on the new partition ?:  sudo cp -R /home/username .
[06:54] <polpak> kennyt, I believe there is a wiki tutorial for customizing the install cd
[06:54] <bikini> carlfk: my new monitor needs a higher resolution than whats offered.
[06:54] <stefg> !fixres > bikini
[06:54] <kennyt> CarlFK: the livecd image is too big to fit on the cd-rws i have
[06:54] <XenonG> Kennyt, no you will need to format that drive with a file format like ext3
[06:54] <delight> hi
[06:54] <CarlFK> user-land: guessing you want cp -a
[06:54] <soldier914> so uhmm can someone help me
[06:54] <gr33npho3nix> !fixres > gr33npho3nix
[06:54] <XenonG> to be able to add any data into it
[06:54] <delight> does anybody know what that .wapi folder is good for in the home folder ?
[06:55] <Moox> hi there. How assign a program to an extension  in gnome?
[06:55] <user-land> like this mwe ?: sudo cp -a /home/usernam .

[06:55] <boga> which is better for a dual-head video card, AGP or PCI?
[06:55] <CarlFK> kennyt: ah - i misunderstood.  no normal blanks?
[06:55] <delight> !wapi
[06:55] <ubotu> I know nothing about wapi - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[06:55] <sharms> boga: neither is better specificially for dualhead, although generally agp cards have better 3d performance
[06:55] <kennyt> CarlFK: nope--and i need to make a ppc livecd :\
[06:55] <Moox> great...so easy... thanks delight
[06:56] <boga> sharms: thanx, but I heard that AGP is slowly being phased out!
[06:56] <delight> Moox: yes gnome is supposed to work the easy way ;)
[06:56] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: so it DOES connect.
[06:56] <CarlFK> kennyt: are you trying to install, or just do LIveCD things ?
[06:56] <soldier914> yeah i need to know what i have to do ijn that repository
[06:56] <neighborlee> just out of curiosity..why in linux do we users have to leave 'x' to install nvidia drivers ?? ;))
[06:56] <sharms> boga: there is a large difference between PCI and PCI-e
[06:56] <kennyt> CarlFK: i'd like to install
[06:56] <kalosaurusrex> Ng: it stops here: debug1: identity file /home/aaron/.ssh/id_dsa type -1
[06:57] <boga> sharms: do you know which card is best for Dapper?
[06:57] <polpak> kennyt, http://wiki.oss-watch.ac.uk/UbuntuDapper/Remaster
[06:57] <boga> and cheap too!
[06:57] <stefg> neighborlee: you dont have to
[06:57] <CarlFK> kennyt: look at the alternate-CD - it is smaller (300?) - but you don't get a full install.  you need to do apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:57] <sharms> boga: any nvidia agp card should be cheap and great, I have a 6600gt agp and it works good and is only $99 or so on ebay
[06:57] <facerape> ok ive just installed ubuntu and despite being plugged into my router im not getting any internet on it
[06:57] <facerape> anyone got any ideas?

[06:58] <polpak> CarlFK, you can certainly do a full install from the alternate install cd.
[06:58] <facerape> <-- linux noob
[06:59] <Imme_emosol> wildman that sit is about redhat, it's talkikng about framebuffer graphic driver, but doesn't ubuntu have this by default?

[06:59] <gr33npho3nix> chucky: well take a look
[06:59] <chucky> np
[06:59] <wildman> Imme-emosol, gotcha. Yep, you might (will) have to 'adapt' to Ubuntu...
[06:59] <chucky> were am i typing this?
[06:59] <gr33npho3nix> and if it doesn't the card isnt' up
[06:59] <mwe> user-land: first mount /dev/sda2 somewhere
[06:59] <gr33npho3nix> in a shell on your machine
[06:59] <user-land> chucky, you are in the channel #ubuntu
[07:00] <XenonG> :-P
[07:00] <mwe> user-land: sudo mkdir /mnt/sda2 && sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/sda2
[07:00] <CarlFK> kennyt: look at the alternate-CD - it is smaller - not it isn't.  700mb...
[07:00] <sharms> chucky: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetAndNetworking
[07:00] <eugman> I'm curious, is there a cli bittorrent client?
[07:00] <neighborlee> stefg, ok what I actually meant was the 'offical ' nvidia drivers..those do make you leave X ;))
[07:00] <daphlex> hi, how do i check which filesystem i'm using? i can't remember if it's ext3 or ext2
[07:00] <mwe> user-land: then sudo cp -a /home/<yourusername> /mnt/sda2
[07:00] <stefg> !info ctorrent
[07:00] <ubotu> Package ctorrent does not exist in dapper
[07:01] <stefg> uh!
[07:01] <wildman> Imme-emosol, even more (confusing), IIRC, 800x600 is the default screen resolution too...
[07:01] <chucky> greenphoenix: where do i put in ifconfig
[07:01] <soldier914> hello
[07:01] <wildman> Imme-emosol, but if you get a 'small' screen, it may be 640x480 instead
[07:01] <gr33npho3nix> chucky: in a terminal on your ubuntu machine
[07:02] <gr33npho3nix> type ifconfig
[07:02] <chucky> ok
[07:02] <stefg> !info rtorrent > eugman
[07:02] <ubotu> rtorrent: ncurses BitTorrent client based on LibTorrent. In repository universe, is extra. Version 0.4.2-1 (dapper), package size 152 kB, installed size 448 kB
[07:02] <Imme_emosol> wildman: iirc?
[07:02] <chucky> i get eth0 followed by a whole bunch of stuff then lo with more stuff
[07:02] <soldier914> so how do i install winex
[07:02] <daphlex> anyone?, please
[07:02] <eugman> k
[07:02] <wildman> Imme-emosol, make sure the Modes line on your xorg.conf's "Screen" section reads: Modes "800x600" "640x480"
[07:02] <wildman> Imme-emosol, IIRC = If I Remember Correctly
[07:02] <gr33npho3nix> chucky: try sudo dhclient eth0
[07:02] <yancheng> how can i use wget to download a file point by php?
[07:02] <gr33npho3nix> chucky: in the terminal
[07:02] <wildman> Imme-emosol, make sure the Modes line on your xorg.conf's "Screen" section reads: Modes "800x600" "640x480"
[07:02] <polpak> soldier914, there is no winex  there is cedega (which used to be called winex) and there's wine
[07:02] <wildman> Imme-emosol, and restart X, and cross fingers :)
[07:03] <oezguer> hi, i have logitec notebook  webcam,, what should i do to my friends to see me? at Amsn?? help plssss
[07:03] <chucky> asks for pw
[07:03] <wildman> Imme-emosol, make a backup of /etc/X11/xorg.conf before playing with it, needless to say.
[07:03] <yancheng> if i access a php web site through firefox, it will prompt me to download. how i can get that file through wget or WebDownloadX?
[07:03] <polpak> soldier914, what games are you wanting to play?
[07:03] <Imme_emosol> wildman: ah okay, so it could be 'cause I now have higher resolutions there too... ?
[07:03] <__doc__> hi, can anybody recommend a freely avaiable RTS game for ubuntu (preferably multiplayer)
[07:03] <polpak> yancheng, the website did the wrong thing setting up the site
[07:03] <Imme_emosol> wildman: I've got 4 back-ups now. :p
[07:03] <soldier914> polpak,call of duty and call of duty united offensive
[07:03] <wildman> Imme-emosol, dunno
[07:03] <chucky> k i get a bunch more stuff
[07:04] <mwe> soldier914: to install cedega-cvs you need all the necesary ubuntu devel packages to be installed before you can compile it
[07:04] <sharms> __doc__: not free, but I play warcraft III
[07:04] <soldier914> and how do i do that?
[07:04] <soldier914> rtepositories?
[07:04] <wildman> Imme-emosol, what I do know is that my current resolution is listed first on that line, no matter how many others I have
[07:04] <Imme_emosol> yancheng: you should type the url for that file in the program you want to use.
[07:04] <user-land> thank you, mwe, going to reboot to try that.
[07:04] <oezguer> hi, i have logitec notebook  webcam,, what should i do to my friends to see me? at Amsn?? help plssss
[07:04] <Imme_emosol> wildman: I'll have a look.
[07:04] <polpak> __doc__,  check out the ubuntu gaming forum, there's a list of native and free games that run on linux there
[07:04] <chucky> greenphoenix: i get a bunch of stuff aobut listening and sending
[07:04] <sharms> oezguer: search the forums for "webcam"
[07:05] <oezguer> thanx
[07:05] <feydin> hi there, kde does not care about my choice what OS to boot next if i log off
[07:05] <chucky> but the ips are all either <IP_ADDRESS> or my local ip assigned by my router
[07:05] <feydin> im using grub, any suggestions?
[07:05] <polpak> soldier914, you don't need cedega to run CoD
[07:05] <gr33npho3nix> chucky: 255.255 etc is a subnet mask
[07:05] <chucky> k
[07:05] <soldier914> you sure?
[07:05] <polpak> soldier914, standard (free) wine will work fine
[07:06] <polpak> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=3603
[07:06] <soldier914> you tried it before
[07:06] <soldier914> ?
[07:06] <Redrose> how do i specify which device I would like nmap to use?
[07:06] <polpak> soldier914, ^^
[07:06] <chucky> and thats the same subnet i use on my windows b0x
[07:06] <polpak> soldier914, read the link
[07:06] <gr33npho3nix> chucky: it it says its recives and address you should be fine
[07:06] <chucky> surely that means i should have some form of communication with the net
[07:06] <gr33npho3nix> if you see the same line repeated over and over
[07:06] <polpak> soldier914, you can get wine from www.winehq.org by following the instructions, or you can install the version from the standard repositories
[07:06] <gr33npho3nix> then it means you have other problems
[07:07] <soldier914> what avbout united offensive?
[07:07] <soldier914> about*
[07:07] <chucky> it looks like it makes sence
[07:07] <pdc303> Hi, I just installed alternate-6.0.6. Why would xorg mouse driver 'void' not be present?
[07:07] <chucky> but still cant get http pages
[07:07] <polpak> soldier914, is that a mod? or a sequal?
[07:07] <The_boss> hi to everyone, i'm using this OS from about 2 weeks, and i have a little problem: to select some files in a list i've to press down the ctrl button + the windows button. why????
[07:07] <soldier914> its a expansion pack
[07:07] <polpak> soldier914, it'll probably work fine
[07:08] <soldier914> berings with the call of duty deluxe edition
[07:08] <polpak> soldier914, unless there's major reworking of the engine (which is unlikely for an expansion)
[07:08] <The_boss> any idea?
[07:08] <soldier914> can i play online with wine
[07:09] <soldier914> ?
[07:09] <wildman> The_boss, to select non-consecutive files in a list you just have to Ctrl+click
[07:09] <polpak> The_boss, the ctrl button alone works fine for me
[07:09] <polpak> soldier914, I don't know. why not try and see
[07:09] <The_boss> tes, i know that i've to click
[07:09] <The_boss> but it doesn't work
[07:09] <The_boss> without the windows button
[07:09] <The_boss> :(
[07:09] <polpak> !enter
[07:09] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[07:10] <Imme_emosol> To go to tty1 or 2 or 3 or whatever is Ctrl+ Alt+ F1,2,3,whatever or am i wrong?
[07:10] <wildman> Imme-emosol, you are right
[07:10] <The_boss> no idea about to correct this? :-D
[07:11] <wildman> The_boss, really strange... Ctrl alone works here w/o any pb at all (and I don't have a US keyboard...)
[07:11] <Imme_emosol> So why isn't it working :S :(
[07:11] <Ratzilla> !tell Ratzilla w32codecs
[07:11] <ubotu> I know nothing about tell Ratzilla w32codecs - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:11] <wildman> Imme-emosol, can't you just open another terminal window?
[07:11] <sharms> Imme-emosol: still having an x problem?
[07:11] <user-land> how do i see if it worked, mwe ? how can i delete the home dir files on the old location (/dev/sda1) ?
[07:12] <The_boss> thanks to all :D
[07:12] <wildman> The_boss, Ctrl alone works now? :)
[07:12] <Imme_emosol> I want to see if I can move this window to a tty window first...
[07:12] <sharms> !tell Ratzilla about win32codecs
[07:12] <ubotu> I know nothing about win32codecs - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:12] <sharms> !tell Ratzilla about w32codecs
[07:12] <Ratzilla> thanks :)
[07:12] <sharms> hehe took long enough
[07:13] <sharms> to switch virtual windows in IRSSI I use alt-1, alt-2, alt-3
[07:13] <soldier914> omg now i cant reload cause of this cvs shit
[07:13] <tailsfan> I'm having trouble install alsa-utils
[07:13] <sharms> !tell tailsfan about sound
[07:13] <soldier914> how do i remove it
[07:13] <soldier914> >?
[07:13] <wildman> Imme-emosol, you are on a console already? using a text-based IRC client?
[07:13] <gregg__> Imme_emosol: you can'
[07:13] <gregg__> t
[07:13] <Imme_emosol> wildman I'm in a termihnal window
[07:14] <wildman> Imme-emosol, and you cannot open another one?
[07:14] <tailsfan> !sound
[07:14] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[07:14] <The_boss> ok
[07:14] <Imme-emosol> wildman: I can but want to be in another tty, you know with the black and white
[07:15] <wildman> Imme-emosol, Ctrl+Alt+F1 ?
[07:15] <wildman> Imme-emosol, pressed in that order ;)
[07:15] <wildman> Imme-emosol, w/o releasing the previously pressed ones
[07:15] <soldier914> i cant reload the list of installaed packages
[07:15] <The_boss> one things more about my "ctrl button" problem: when i push ctrl and left click appears a "+" as pointer... :-|

[07:37] <Alex0r> Pandora: are you trying to rip the DVDs, then burn them?
[07:37] <Pandora82> Alex but it must be possible to watch ordinary DVDs (rent or bought) on ubuntu...
[07:37] <soldier914> it opens the new window showing the files in it
[07:37] <soldier914> = \
[07:37] <gnomefreak> soldier914: you have to have the .exe file saved to your pc
[07:37] <soldier914> setup.exe?
[07:37] <Pandora82> alex no way. I bought them and only want to watch em

[07:38] <amortvigil> does anyone know how to install the php5 librarys in mysql?
[07:38] <Alex0r> Maybe it's too complex?
[07:38] <gnomefreak> soldier914: is setup.exe on your desktop?
[07:38] <soldier914> yes
[07:38] <soldier914> i copied it from the cd
[07:39] <Alex0r> you need all the files from the cd
[07:39] <Pandora82> Alex the prob is: since I can't mount the DVD, it seems to be impossible to open them with any player
[07:39] <gnomefreak> soldier914: cd Desktop
[07:39] <gnomefreak> soldier914: type that
[07:39] <soldier914> okay
[07:39] <sharms> !tell amortvigil about mysql

[07:39] <Alex0r> Yeah
[07:40] <xlumin> hi all
[07:40] <tmccrary> git = worst code revisioning system ever made
[07:40] <Pandora82> ok... nice that somebody tells me... ;-) so how do I open them with e.g. VLC
[07:40] <Alex0r> Uh
[07:40] <kitche> tmccrary: git is good you just need to read the docs
[07:40] <tmccrary> whoever wrote it should be stabbed in the eyes with a spoon until death
[07:40] <tmccrary> No, git sucks
[07:40] <Alex0r> put the disk in your dvd drive, then go open directory with VLC
[07:40] <soldier914> now it couldnt load some codll.dll file
[07:40] <tmccrary> fatal: unexpected EOF
[07:40] <xlumin> i'm currently struggling to install dapper on my (currently gentoo'd) PowerBook Pismo
[07:40] <soldier914> something like that
[07:40] <trappist> tmccrary: do you have a technical criticism or are you a troll?
[07:41] <Alex0r> and then find your dvd directory, click it, and voila
[07:41] <soldier914> do i have tio make a folder with all the files from the cd in it?
[07:41] <sponix> Pandora82:  do you have libdvdcss2 and libdvdread ?
[07:41] <xlumin> an i'm getting weird errors from gnome on login (to the livecd)
[07:41] <tmccrary> I'm pretty pissed, but a quick google search shows I'm not alone
[07:41] <Pandora82> sponix yes
[07:41] <tmccrary> git is unreliable
[07:41] <soldier914> gnomefreak,do i have to make a folder with all the files from the cd?
[07:41] <sponix> Pandora82:  ok, what exactly was your issue, again /
[07:41] <xlumin> gnome-settings-daemon and bonobo don't seem to be starting, so i got no nautilus
[07:41] <Alex0r> He couldn't mount a DVD
[07:41] <soldier914> copy and paste all the files from the cd to the new folder on the desktop?
[07:41] <Pandora82> she...
[07:42] <Alex0r> But you don't mount a DVD.. He wanted to watch it
[07:42] <xlumin> and ubiquity won't start, so i can't actually install, i'm confused..
[07:42] <sponix> Pandora82:  oh, well a DVD should mount, no matter what, even if you can't play the movie files off of it
[07:42] <ulaas> hiya. anyone had luck with XGL on dapper?
[07:42] <user-land> Now i have a problem with the screen resolution, the system preferences only allow up to 1024 pixels, but my monitor has 1280 ...
[07:42] <xlumin> anybody ever have any issues like that?
[07:42] <Alex0r> XGL + Dapper = Alex cant do
[07:42] <tmccrary> defaulting to local storage area

[07:42] <soldier914> gnomefreak?
[07:43] <tmccrary> git = AWESOME
[07:43] <sponix> Pandora82:  to watch with mplayer, its normally mplayer dvd://1 or for vlc you can go to open disc and tell it dvd://1 (if title1 is the movie)
[07:43] <ulaas> Alex0r: nvidia?
[07:43] <Alex0r> Yar
[07:43] <Pandora82> sponix that doesn't work
[07:43] <sponix> Pandora82:  some players (kaffeine) are smart enough to just play the movie by finding the main title though
[07:44] <sponix> Pandora82:  any errors ?
[07:44] <soldier914> anyone here can help me with my call of duty installation?
[07:44] <ulaas> Alex0r: whats your problem? maybe we share...
[07:44] <Axe_> Hello.. how do I enable more screen resolutions to be chosen
[07:44] <Axe_> editing some X config file Im' sure
[07:44] <Pandora82> not with VLC, Mplayer brought some errors
[07:44] <Alex0r> Mine just flat out wont install
[07:44] <Alex0r> But I never tried again
[07:44] <kitche> Axe_: edit xorg.conf
[07:44] <Alex0r> Imma go on Ubuntu
[07:44] <Alex0r> Beeeee right back
[07:44] <sponix> Pandora82:  mplayer -v -d /dev/dvd might show the layout of the dvd, and you can play guess and test on what title you need to play etc
[07:44] <Axe_> kitche: where is that located
[07:44] <jrib> !fixres > soldier914
[07:44] <rhican> is it easy/safe to replace gdm with kdm on an ubuntu?
[07:44] <amortvigil> sharms i have lamp but in order to get php5 woring together with mysql you have to add --with-mysql in a configuration file
[07:45] <kitche> Axe_: /etc/X11
[07:45] <jrib> !fixres > Axe_
[07:45] <xlumin> Axe /etc/X11/Xorg.conf
[07:45] <jrib> soldier914: sorry, that wasn't for you
[07:45] <soldier914> oh okaay
[07:45] <ForeClosure> whats the different if i install unbuntu in VMware and normal pc ?
[07:45] <gnomefreak> ok sorry phone im back
[07:45] <sponix> rhican:  yeah, its not hard, there is only one file to edit.. want me to look it up for ya ?
[07:46] <rhican> don't bother i'll google it later today
[07:46] <gnomefreak> soldier914: look for the .exe files and tell me what their names are
[07:46] <kitche> amirtvigil to get php5 to work with mysql you would add --with-mysql during the configure stage
[07:47] <Pandora82> failed to open dvd... that's what mplayer says
[07:47] <xavi> hi, i've a problem with dapper, i can't boot with acpi enabled. I've a Toshiba Satellite M70-165. Can anyone help me?

[07:48] <xlumin> ok guys, seriously tho, has anyone had any issues with the livecd not starting CORBA/bonobo/GSD properly, an therefore not bein able to get ubiquity to start?

[07:48] <chucky> ive got google to load but i cant get other pages to work
[07:48] <sponix> rhican:  /etc/X11/default-display-manager   just change from gdm to kdm in that file... I have ubuntu/kubuntu/xubuntu all installed, but as long as you have a working kdm that should pick right up
[07:48] <chucky> i can do a search on google but cant follow any of the links it provides
[07:49] <gnomefreak> soldier914: once that is saved try wine launch.exe
[07:49] <sponix> Pandora82:  have you tried just mount /dev/dvd /mnt to see if you can browse the files on it ?
[07:49] <soldier914> but i made a new folder

[07:57] <soldier914> gnomefreak,access denied
[07:57] <Pandora82> tried it with xine, vlc, ... but I think the problem is not the player but the computer doesn't detect the DVD
[07:57] <ForeClosure> which is better ? mplayer ? or xine ?
[07:57] <ChadWick> i need help setting the permissions for the /usr folder.
[07:57] <arrakn0> mplayer
[07:57] <jrib> ForeClosure: mplayer imo, but both are good
[07:57] <kitche> soldier914: and gnomefreak soudns like a permission problem
[07:57] <arrakn0> yes
[07:58] <Pandora82> it often says no medium found, no filetype spedified and stuff like that
[07:58] <gumpish> I ran: mkfs.ext3 /dev/hdb and Ubuntu says "/dev/hdb is apparently in use by the system..." but running mount shows that it's not being used at all... wtf?
[07:58] <kitche> gumpish /dev/hdb is the drive but its probably being used as /dev/hdb1
[07:58] <ChadWick> anyone?
[07:59] <xavi> it doesn't boot  with acpi=off. I only can boot with acpi=off
[07:59] <jrib> Pandora82: can you pastebin the errors from 'mplayer dvd://' and does the drive work with normal cd's ok?
[07:59] <gumpish> but mount doesn't show ANY partition on "hdb" at all... no hdb1, hdb2... nothing with hdb
[07:59] <Alex0r> does dapper already have xgl installed?

[08:00] <jrib> Pandora82: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[08:00] <gnomefreak> soldier914: oh ok
[08:00] <edan> so I config the card in /etc/network/interfaces and when my machine boots, it works fine, connects with WPA fine
[08:01] <GaiaX11> There is an engineer here asking me about this. Any hints?
[08:01] <gnomefreak> soldier914: im not really sure what to say other than please try in #winehq if noone in here knows
[08:01] <gumpish> apropos seems to be broken - it only says "nothing appropriate" no matter what I search for.
[08:01] <Pandora82> done jrib

[08:01] <ForeClosure> how i wanna read .nfo files ?
[08:01] <soldier914> i did
[08:01] <kitche> GaiaX11 I think autocad runs under wine fine
[08:01] <edan> then after a few seconds, it stops working but if I disable/enable the card it works fine and doesn't fail
[08:01] <soldier914> no one will answer
[08:01] <edan> any idea

[08:07] <imme> PanicFo, what do you mean bij sql dump file?
[08:07] <mcphail> kitche: apt-get install claims it is at the latest version. Should I be using a different command?

[08:08] <PanicFo> by dump file i mean that i made a dump of all the contents on the old server
[08:08] <imme> PanicFo, do you have phpmyadmin or something similar installed?
[08:08] <PanicFo> aye but it fails

[08:09] <jstew> How can I make the settings permanent like they were in breezy?
[08:10] <jrib> Pandora82: nah, just 'mount' by itself, and throw in 'dmesg | tail' too after trying to view the dvd
[08:10] <imme> PanicFo, what does phpmyadmin say then?
[08:10] <kkman> when i try to connect to the server i it gets disconnected immediately!! syslog on the server says "xinetd[4858] : earning: can't get client address: Transport endpoint is not connected"
[08:10] <kkman> HELP!
[08:11] <Alex0r> Calm down
[08:11] <kkman> :)
[08:11] <Pandora82> jrib only type in "mount"? it says nothing and dmesg | tail says http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18371
[08:11] <Alex0r> connect to what server..?
[08:11] <ltibor65> Hi guys! Help! How can I remove a program which was installed from source with make install?
[08:12] <Alex0r> Delete the crap?
[08:12] <kkman> to the ubuntu server i want vnc to run on
[08:12] <Alex0r> Hmm. weird
[08:12] <GaiaX11> gnomefreak: Thanks very much!
[08:12] <Alex0r> I've never seen that error
[08:13] <jrib> Pandora82: hrmm mount should output /etc/mtab, what does 'cat /etc/mtab' say?
[08:13] <Spec> ltibor65: the correct answer is: "<Alex0r> Delete the crap?"
[08:13] <Pandora82> jrib nothing as well...
[08:13] <user-land> How can i see how full partitions are ?
[08:13] <Spec> user-land: df -h
[08:13] <Spec> user-land: if they're mounted
[08:14] <user-land> thanks, Spec.
[08:14] <user-land> Is there also an application showing the space folders use, recursively ?
[08:14] <Spec> user-land: you can also sit in the mount point and do crazy stuff like: du -chs *
[08:14] <Spec> user-land: yes, du -chs .
[08:14] <ltibor65> Spec, what?
[08:15] <Spec> user-land: or you can do crazier stuff like: find . |du -hc
[08:15] <Spec> ltibor65: to uninstall a program installed by 'make install'
[08:15] <jrib> Pandora82: that's strange.  I'm not an expert on this stuff, but what does /etc/fstab contain?  Have you rebooted recently?
[08:15] <dribble> harumph -- myspace went flash9?
[08:15] <dribble> great
[08:15] <Spec> ltibor65: look in the makefile, maybe there's a remove or uninstall -- but i doubt it
[08:15] <Spec> ltibor65: the best way is to look in the makefile, see where it installed crap, and delete said crap
[08:15] <wspinelli> j/ #ubuntu-br
[08:15] <Alex0r> Sigh - Just find the stuff and hit the delete key on it's folder
[08:16] <Alex0r> Easier than pie
[08:16] <user-land> Spec, i just moved my home dir to its own partition on /dev/sda2. How can i delete the old data on /dev/sda1 (/) ?
[08:16] <Pandora82> fstab contains: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18372
[08:16] <Spec> user-land: why would you want to delete your root directory? are you reinstalling?
[08:17] <Jack_Sparrow> !backup
[08:17] <ubotu> I know nothing about backup - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:17] <Alex0r> user-land: use the delete command under sudo
[08:17] <Spec> damn that's bad
[08:17] <user-land> Spec, i only want to delete /home which was on the root partition.
[08:17] <Spec> no backup for ubotu
[08:17] <Alex0r> what about delete /home
[08:17] <Alex0r> sudo delete /home
[08:17] <Alex0r> ?
[08:17] <Spec> rm
[08:18] <Alex0r> rm?
[08:18] <Spec> rm = delete
[08:18] <jrib> Pandora82: did you modify that?
[08:18] <Alex0r> Oh
[08:18] <sysdoc> rm=remove
[08:18] <Alex0r> Sorry, I didn't know that command
[08:18] <Jack_Sparrow> user-land: Read this first to make sure you get everything you need backed up  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem
[08:18] <Alex0r> Imma nub
[08:18] <Spec> user-land: are you running off /dev/sda1?
[08:18] <user-land> well /home is now on its own partition, i want to delete the home data on the root partition where it was earlier today.
[08:18] <jstew> Anyone else ever run into the problem of cups losing it's settings after logout?
[08:18] <Spec> user-land: or on a live cd?
[08:18] <Pandora82> jrib yes because I try to solve this problem for days now
[08:18] <user-land> off /dev/sda1
[08:18] <Alex0r> jstew: I think that problem is common, live with it
[08:19] <Spec> user-land: you should rm -rf /home/* and then mount /dev/sda2 /home
[08:19] <Alex0r> There could be an option to remember all the info though
[08:19] <Spec> user-land: then adjust your fstab to always mount /dev/sda2 to /home
[08:19] <Alex0r> Look around cups, I'd find it but I do not have or use it
[08:19] <jonah1980> hi would anyone please be kind enough to help me set up mythtv, i think everything is installed, i've tried reading howtos and googling but when you type stuff and different things happen to what your told should you get lost! now i don't know where to go and how to get it up working. could anyone please give me a hand?
[08:19] <jrib> Pandora82: I should have asked this earlier, but have you tried different dvd's?
[08:19] <imme> How does the bot work?
[08:19] <Spec> !ubotu
[08:19] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage
[08:19] <Spec> imme: read UbotuUsage
[08:20] <imme> tnx
[08:20] <user-land> i did change fstab as you suggested, but i think you mentioned the solution: i should delete the old data while booting from a livecd.
[08:20] <Alex0r> I thought spec was a bot.. lol
[08:20] <kalila> gmail is slowing down my browser considerably lately
[08:20] <Pandora82> jrib yes. I also tried DVDs that worked in my device (under ... windows... *duck and cover*)
[08:20] <adamJ> dribble, i am glad that i never got into myspace...when did they go to 9? I was just there the other day t the request of my little brother
[08:21] <dribble> adamJ, just signed in today, got the notice -- all vids flash 9
[08:21] <user-land> jonah1980, maybe try a dedicated mythtv forum or so if you don't get replies here.
[08:21] <Alex0r> i don't even have macromedia flash on ubuntu - it wont install in my firefox
[08:21] <tmccrary> 64-bit?
[08:21] <_Roconda_> wheee I got ubuntu stickers :')
[08:21] <dribble> Alex0r, install it through apt
[08:21] <Alex0r> ah, okay
[08:21] <tmccrary> _Roconda_: I just got my ubuntu discs today too :)
[08:21] <jonah1980> user-land, thanks i'll try them again but last time they gave me a speech about how newbs shouldn't even try stuff like myth which didn't really help me much
[08:21] <jstew> Alex0r: live with it? thanks, bnut no thanks.
[08:21] <jstew> s/bnut/but/
[08:21] <jrib> Pandora82: ok, right now, /mnt/dvd is empty right?
[08:22] <Alex0r> lol,
[08:22] <_Roconda_> tmccrary: I got my cds today too :)
[08:22] <Alex0r> look around for a remember option
[08:22] <_Roconda_> with the stickers
[08:22] <adamJ> i went to the flash website and i searched the internet yesterday (the Transformers Movie website uses Flash 9) and they are saying that 9.5 will be the next linux release
[08:22] <Pandora82> jrib yes sir
[08:22] <jrib> Pandora82: 'sudo mount -a', does 'mount' then return something?
[08:22] <imme> Mozilla is acting up here... :S
[08:23] <Pandora82> jrib mount: /dev/hda6 already mounted or /home busy
[08:23] <imme> anyone else same problem?
[08:23] <user-land> i am sorry, jonah1980; i was wondering about mythtv today. is it well integrated in ubuntu now ? a year ago it was easier to use a mythtv distro for it.
[08:23] <Roconda> how can I apt-get opera?, how is that package called ?
[08:23] <Alex0r> sudo apt-get install flash to install flash..?
[08:23] <jrib> Pandora82: alright, well I don't know, sorry.  I think you should look into why /etc/mtab is empty, that might have something to do with it
[08:24] <jstew> Everything looks good in /etc/cups/printers.conf. Must be a problem with gnome-cups-manager overwriting the settings on each start
[08:24] <jrib> Alex0r: flashplugin-nonfree (after enabling multiverse)
[08:24] <crimsun> Roconda: use Applications> Add/Remove App...   and choose the commercial section
[08:24] <Pandora82> jrib but before I "worked" on this it was not empty and DVDs didn't work as well
[08:24] <jonah1980> user-land, well it's suppsed to be easy but i'm stuck. i added a repository and that seemed to install everything you need, plugins etc etc and the interface comes up etc i'm just stuck with the mysql and login/password and localhost bits etc
[08:24] <Alex0r> jrib: how to I enable multiverse?
[08:24] <jrib> !multiverse > Alex0r
[08:24] <snedar> hi! can I use chroot from the livecd to restore grub? and if so, how? now it cannot find /dev/sda.
[08:25] <Alex0r> !multiverse
[08:25] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[08:25] <Roconda> ahh crimsun I didnt know where that option was, it was first in System -> admin
[08:25] <saiko> i don't understand the unrar (non-free) command, i'm trying to extract some rar archive, but so far no luck, any help ?
[08:25] <user-land> i see, jonah1980. hopefully someone will give you a hand here at another time. try often :-)
[08:25] <jrib> saiko: have you tried double clicking on it?
[08:25] <saiko> i doesn't work
[08:25] <jonah1980> user-land, thanks i'll keep trying
[08:26] <Kaja> saiko, man unrar
[08:26] <saiko> it opens archive manager instead and it fails
[08:26] <Jack_Sparrow> saiko: unrar does work.  What are you trying to install that is not from the repositories
[08:26] <jrib> saiko: well the cli syntax is 'unrar x file.rar' iirc
[08:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Hi jrib
[08:26] <jrib> (but archive manager should open rar if you have it installed)
[08:27] <Alex0r> woot, dling like 400 files now
[08:27] <jrib> Jack_Sparrow: hello
[08:27] <saiko> ok, i'll try it and read the manual first as well, thx everyone :)
[08:27] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[08:27] <gumpish> Why does mkfs reserve 5% of the blocks on a partition for "super user"?
[08:27] <jdier> just installed xmms skins package via synaptic...  how can I determine which directory the skins were put in?
[08:28] <jrib> jdier: dpkg -L package_name
[08:28] <user-land> jonah1980, are you going to edit the wiki entry for mythtv too ?
[08:28] <Cooner750> Does anyone know of a Jabber instant messenger server (besides Wildfire) that does not need Java to run?
[08:28] <HedgeMage> Cooner750: ejabberd
[08:28] <JDahl> gumpish: so that mailservers, logs, etc. have some space left even if a user fills up the disk
[08:28] <jonah1980> user-land, sorry what do you mean?
[08:28] <jrib> Pandora82: your best bet is to try the mailing list and/or forums
[08:28] <Cooner750> Can it be installed via apt-get?
[08:29] <Alex0r> flashplugin-nonfree is flash version 7
[08:29] <Alex0r> :/
[08:29] <Pandora82> jrib already done (two german forums... we're working on it)
[08:29] <HedgeMage> Cooner750: but it's in erlang.
[08:29] <gumpish> I see - I assume that not all filesystems support the concept of reserving blocks for admin users...
[08:29] <Spec> Alex0r: you thought i was a bot? :-/
[08:29] <Alex0r> lol, yeah
[08:30] <Alex0r> coz of your name
[08:30] <JDahl> gumpish: actually that's what it does...
[08:30] <sysdoc> lol
[08:30] <Alex0r> :@
[08:30] <Alex0r> flash still wont install
[08:30] <gumpish> right - but that's unique to ext2/3?
[08:31] <Jack_Sparrow> jrib: how busy are you?  I have a program I want to test.  RealBasic 2006 3 meg file.  Nothing more than a list box and a pic box to test portability of code..
[08:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Alexblame flash.. not ubuntu
[08:31] <jrib> Jack_Sparrow: I'm actually about to step out, but /msg me and I'll take a look later
[08:31] <ChadWick> how do change the permission for the /usr folder? it wont let me?
[08:31] <JDahl> gumpish: I don't know, but I would guess that it's not that special a feature
[08:31] <Jack_Sparrow> where can I send it..?
[08:31] <Alex0r> Yar,
[08:32] <Jack_Sparrow> Yo Ho
[08:32] <Alex0r> Yarrrrrr matey
[08:32] <jdier> jrib, thank you.  When going back to synaptic to verify the exact name of the package I also saw that under properties I could see everywhere synaptic had put files.
[08:32] <ChadWick> CAN someone please help me?
[08:33] <rio_> Hey

[08:33] <jdier> jrib - thanks for the command line instructions though!  I am a newbie, but trying hard to learn more and more about command line.  Very much appreciate the help.
[08:33] <Alex0r> flashplugin-nonfree wont setup
[08:33] <JDahl> saiko: rm -rf dir
[08:33] <rio_> it's scorching over here in the uk, had a bios cpu overheat warning, put a new chassis fan in and want to keep an eye on how its doing
[08:33] <Alex0r> and now its stuck in terminal

[08:33] <Alex0r> and i cant install anything else
[08:33] <Alex0r> :@
[08:34] <Pandora82> why do I always have the hard-to-solve problems
[08:34] <saiko> JDahl: thank you
[08:34] <imme> ChadWick, what error does it give you? Or does it say nothing?
[08:34] <narfmaster> ChadWick, do not change your permissions on the /usr folder
[08:34] <ChadWick> i want to change the permission of the /usr folder so i can place files in there
[08:34] <ChadWick> ok
[08:34] <narfmaster> ChadWick, no - bad idea
[08:34] <ChadWick> how gdo you install program into there then?
[08:34] <ChadWick> like firefox i want to upgrade it
[08:35] <Alex0r> I'm about to format my PC again
[08:35] <narfmaster> ChadWick, you use something like Synaptic

[08:36] <zoidberg> can two people, both who are ssh enabled send text messages to each other using just the terminal
[08:36] <gumpish> JDahl: how do "reserved block" prevent file fragmentation?
[08:36] <zoidberg> without any other application
[08:36] <Alex0r> zoidberg: no. don't think so.
[08:36] <jonah1980> tried to reset my database but i get this error: http://pastebin.ca/92614

[08:37] <ballpointcarrot> Pandora82: any reason why DVD won't play?
[08:37] <gr33npho3nix> zoidberg: it has to be onthe same system
[08:37] <zoidberg> what do u mena?
[08:37] <JDahl> gumpish: I don't know... Does the man page claim that?
[08:37] <gr33npho3nix> zoidberg: otherwise it requires a somewhat complex network and system setup
[08:37] <gumpish> yep
[08:38] <zoidberg> we are on the same network
[08:38] <gr33npho3nix> zoidberg: you both have to  be logged into the same machine
[08:38] <Alex0r> YAY FLASH WORKS
[08:38] <Alex0r> YAYAYAYYA
[08:38] <zoidberg> oh we cant be on different machines but the same wLAN?
[08:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Pandora82: what program are you using to open / play the DVD?
[08:38] <gumpish> just curious. I've lowered the percentage to 1%, which I'm happy with.
[08:38] <gr33npho3nix> zoidberg: you can try i know it works at my college on the solaris machines
[08:38] <gr33npho3nix> but they may have some more stuff setup
[08:38] <zoidberg> okay
[08:38] <zoidberg> thanx
[08:39] <gr33npho3nix> zoidberg: i know it works w\o any setup on the same machine
[08:39] <gr33npho3nix> its not very pretty though

[08:57] <wogi> I thin it had something to do with installing evolution.
[08:57] <matthias> wo bin ich?
[08:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Draconicus: try digikam see if it will not find your camera
[08:57] <wogi> Does anyone have any ideas on how I might be able to fix this?

On other computers I don't get the "PCI:" error, but after I get several boot up messages that come back "ok", a black screen comes up that says "Extracting Linux.... Ok, booting up kernel" and then boot up just stops there. I think this is a problem with 6.06. Can someone help me?

[09:07] <flip> and its hanging on laptop-mode-tools
[09:08] <avalean> *downloading*

[09:08] <Orbit45244> k thanks
[09:08] <narfmaster> bsilverstrim, 4.1
[09:09] <sybec> Gnome or KDE ?
[09:09] <bsilverstrim> It says I currently have 5.0 on it.  How do I downgrade to 4.1?
[09:09] <sharms> Pandora82: well if the dvd drive is 100% working it may just be you need to turn DMA on or off, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DMA
[09:09] <johan_> what do I do in a shell script if I 1. want to stop the script if a command fails and 2. want silent output?
[09:09] <neuro_> Enverex: tis done; enjoy :)
[09:10] <Pandora82> sharms I think DMA is on - at least automatixx said that
[09:10] <Jack_Sparrow> johan_: ctrl-c
[09:10] <sybec> 1. exit ; 2. ./script.sh 1>/dev/null 2>&1
[09:10] <AOGuy1989> question why can;t i not msake a dvd play in ubuntu i ahve a dvd player drive
[09:10] <fyrestrtr> johan_: command1 && command2 (command2 only runs if command1 executes successfully) command1 && command2 &1>&2 > /dev/null
[09:10] <sharms> Pandora82: you might want to turn it off then, maybe your drive doesn't support it
[09:10] <ttyfscker> does anybody in here know of a tool for ubuntu that will take a v4l2 video device and create a loop device that is v4l1 compatabile?
[09:10] <sharms> !tell AOGuy1989 about dvd

[09:10] <Pandora82> sharms I'll try
[09:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Pandora82: Scripts like automatix make some things easy and really mess up others.  It is best to learn how to do it yourself

[09:11] <AOGuy1989> thanks and the other question is a little harder
[09:11] <fyrestrtr> Minty: sudo apt-get install gnome-bluetooth

[09:12] <Ninja> Jack_Sparrow, well K3B wont start..ill click on it and it wont even initiize

[09:12] <gnomefreak> ttyfscker: ythe patch was released
[09:12] <bsilverstrim>  sudo apt-get install mysql_server4.1
[09:12] <fyrestrtr> nosotros: make sure your driver is fglrx not ati
[09:12] <flip> should i just wait a couple days until the package is maybe repaired and do a update and then another -f install ?
[09:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Ninja:  how did you install it and what linux are you using
[09:12] <tmccrary> compiling xorg from source... its an all day affair
[09:12] <Jack_Sparrow> I ma running 6.06 here and K3b
[09:12] <Jack_Sparrow> am
[09:12] <AOGuy1989> no no something like sudo hidd --connect 00:07:61:49:1b:f8  i need it ot run that
[09:13] <Ninja> Jack_Sparrow, i used Synaptec package manageer..and im using Ubuntu ofcourse..and 6.06
[09:13] <ttyfscker> gnomefreak:: is the next release going to be named "edgy" or is "edgy" the name for sid in ubuntu?
[09:13] <AOGuy1989> i need it to run that at start up
[09:13] <Jack_Sparrow> I know you say Ubuntu of course, but you would be amazed at how many people come here for help with other distros
[09:13] <flip> ttyfscker: sid = dapper
[09:13] <ballpointcarrot> Ninja: run it through a terminal, see if any errors pop up.
[09:13] <fyrestrtr> ttyfscker: #ubuntu+1
[09:13] <bsilverstrim> sudo apt-get install mysql_server-4.1 is doing something.
[09:13] <gnomefreak> ttyfscker: edgy is the code name it will be called 6.10
[09:14] <zukalk> guys, i'm trying to install gaim-2.0.0beta3, but its ./configure scripts requires XML::Parser, and sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install XML::Parser' returns an error. any suggestions?

[09:14] <eternalswd> I'm trying to compile php5 from source and I want mysqli, but I can't find mysql_config even though I have mysql5 installed from the repositories.  How do I remedy this?
[09:14] <ttyfscker> ok i will
[09:14] <Ninja> ballpointcarrot, i dont even wanna bother with that..
[09:14] <Enverex> neuro_, One question though, on one of them it's got "_: NAME OF TRANSLATORS" so I assume that isn't translated but you actually put your name in there instead... right?
[09:14] <sybec> Eh .. compiling from source on a binary distribution .. that just sounds wrong to me
[09:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Ninja: go to term and try gksudo k3b           for me...
[09:14] <gr33npho3nix> flip: not quite
[09:15] <ttyfscker> lol
[09:15] <gr33npho3nix> the name sid stays w\ debians current expiriremental
[09:15] <ttyfscker> dapper isnt sid.. dapper has been released..
[09:15] <gr33npho3nix> where as dapper follows 6.06 sid doesn't follow a version number
[09:15] <Pandora82> how can I switch DMA off?
[09:15] <ttyfscker> gr33npho3nix:: i was just wondering what the sid equivalent was in ubuntu
[09:15] <gr33npho3nix> it moves from latest versiosion to latest version
[09:15] <gr33npho3nix> ttyfscker: i don't think they have one
[09:16] <fyrestrtr> eternalswd: sudo apt-get install php5-mysqli
[09:16] <ttyfscker> so edgy is expected for release in october?
[09:16] <eXistenZ> Can anyone help me please?
[09:16] <zukalk> Pandora82: : http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DMA tells you all you need to know
[09:16] <Jack_Sparrow> I dont want to drop anyone in the middle of help but I will need to run when my contractor comes to the door..
[09:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Ninja: what did you get with that command
[09:17] <user-land> is there a way to query the temperature of the CPU ? sensors-applet is displaying it but it always stays at 40C which i don't believe.
[09:17] <ttyfscker> gr33npho3nix:: debian testing follows 3.2
[09:17] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, sup?
[09:17] <ttyfscker> gr33npho3nix:: but testing and sid are two different things...
[09:17] <eXistenZ> narfmaster, hey, I'm great :)
[09:17] <eXistenZ> narfmaster, How about you?
[09:17] <gr33npho3nix> ttyfscker: right, it goes experimental, testing, stable
[09:17] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, so so
[09:17] <gr33npho3nix> (testing is also know as unstable)
[09:17] <ttyfscker> gr33npho3nix:: i should have restated that..  3.2 follows testing for now
[09:18] <Pandora82> sorry I'm not a native speaker and on this page I only see how to switch on dma... or am I blind?
[09:18] <eXistenZ> narfmaster, Do you know how can I revert some package to its previous version?
[09:18] <ttyfscker> in debian testing is known as testing and unstable is known as sid..
[09:18] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, you need to find the deb file for the version you want to downgrade to
[09:18] <eXistenZ> narfmaster, I think it is still there
[09:18] <eXistenZ> narfmaster, I mean, I installed a new version of vim7, and now things are bad =/
[09:19] <ballpointcarrot> ttyfscker: technically, testing is known as etch, and unstable is known as sid.
[09:19] <ttyfscker> currently testing = etch, and unstable = sid (unstable is always sid)
[09:19] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, dpkg -i packagename
[09:20] <zukalk> Pandora82: you're not blind. why exactly do you want to turn DMA off? and are you sure it is on?
[09:20] <GaiaX11> i
[09:20] <bagpuss_thecat> is it possible to get Ubiquity to install onto a software raid /dev/md0 device?
[09:20] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, i'm using vim 6.4.6
[09:20] <bagpuss_thecat> it just seems merrily oblivious to any software raid
[09:21] <eXistenZ> narfmaster, I'm trying to downgrade to vim6.4.6
[09:21] <kdingo> i resized my root partition and now it doesn't seem to recognize the extra space
[09:21] <Enverex> Has anyone here done any of the translation work before on Launchpad?
[09:21] <live> Hespeak spanish ?
[09:21] <Jack_Sparrow> !es
[09:21] <Pandora82> zulak it is on (sure) and I have terrible problems with my DVD-player (I can't watch DVDs)
[09:21] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[09:21] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, you should have no trouble finding that version in the Ubuntu repos
[09:21] <mwe> kdingo: maybe you didn't resize the file system as well
[09:21] <eternalswd> fyrestrtr: that didn't install any mysql_config
[09:21] <eXistenZ> narfmaster, yes, but how can I force its installation
[09:22] <kdingo> mwe, i don't understand
[09:22] <zukalk> Pandora82: have you tried with different DVD players?
[09:22] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, try doing this: sudo apt-get install vim
[09:22] <mwe> kdingo: you need to tell the file system about the extra space
[09:22] <Pandora82> zulakl yes, the problem is not the player - the device cannot read any DVD
[09:22] <Pandora82> sorry zukalk
[09:22] <AOGuy1989> ok i asked why cna;t o make a dvd play i ahve the thing that t he bot told me to get but that didn't help at all
[09:22] <kdingo> mwe: how would i do that?
[09:22] <narfmaster> eXistenZ, sudo apt-get remove vim <-- do this first :p
[09:23] <bagpuss_thecat> Ubiquity is very sadly inadequate for a so-called production release
[09:23] <lz1gjd> could anyone tell me what option i should pass to dpkg to install a package without satisfying its dependencies ?
[09:23] <zukalk> Pandora82: what is the name of the device itself? your dvd drive, i mean. /dev/hdc?
[09:23] <NickVolt> anyone in here running postfix on dapper drake?
[09:23] <Pandora82> zukalk so I now think it's more like a problem with the driver. yes /dev/hdc
[09:23] <mwe> kdingo: sudo tune2f -j /dev/whatever I think
[09:24] <mwe> kdingo: tune2fs that is
[09:24] <AOGuy1989> ok i asked why cna;t o make a dvd play i ahve the thing that t he bot told me to get but that didn't help at all??
[09:24] <narfmaster> lz1gjd, --force-depends
[09:24] <lz1gjd> narfmaster: thx
[09:24] <Morrowyn> nicenice, that xgl and compix absolutely looks gorgeous
[09:24] <Pandora82> seems like this A0Guy has the same problem...
[09:25] <AOGuy1989> what di u mean
[09:25] <zukalk> Pandora82: you can turn DMA off for /dev/hdc by entering in a console the following command: sudo hdparm -d0 /dev/hdc
[09:25] <Pandora82> ok thx
[09:25] <mwe> kdingo: um it is resize2fs. sorry
[09:25] <skavenge> so theres no way to do a barebones install with the desktop cd right, you have to have the server iso or alternate?
[09:26] <AOGuy1989> does anyone know whyit won't play?
[09:26] <Minty> fyrestrtr: bluetooth worked, many thanks :)
[09:26] <kdingo> mwe: ah ok i was just about to say it said there was already a journal
[09:26] <zukalk> Pandora82: if this does solve the problem, maybe you'd like to permanently turn DMA off. but make sure it solves it first
[09:26] <ajayc> tell me a small video player that can play wmv files
[09:26] <Pandora82> zukalk the problem is still there it seems
[09:26] <mwe> kdingo: you need sth like sudo resize2fs /dev/whatever <size>
[09:27] <jonah1980> i read in the howto that dapper permission probs can be solved with this, but i just get errors: http://extraball.sunsite.dk/notepad.php?ID=19197
[09:27] <MenZa`laptop> Is XFCE much smaller than Gnome?
[09:27] <Strat72> hrlp plz: installtion issue: text mode: right after you enter hostname, screens stays blue with grey bar at bottom.. able to type, but with no results.. ctrl-c takes me to partion disk screen ( confiure LVM or Raid ) seem to skip disk space to parition screen...
[09:27] <zukalk> Pandora82: so apparently this isn't a DMA problem. you can turn it back on, if you wish, by doing " -d1 " instead of " -d0 "
[09:27] <ajayc> tell me a small video player that can play wmv files
[09:27] <kdingo> mwe: ok thanks, i will try that now
[09:27] <mwe> kdingo: is it the root partition?
[09:28] <AOGuy1989> ok i asked why cna;t o make a dvd play i ahve the thing that t he bot told me to get but that didn't help at all?? anoyne know why?

[09:30] <Orbit45244> well, I know I have usb 2.0, but all I found in my BIOS was something about USB Legacy Mode, so I changed that, but it didn't help
[09:30] <Pandora82> zukalk yes, I added the codecs, the libs and so on
[09:30] <narfmaster> ajayc, if that's the case you will almost certainly need mplayer

[09:30] <mwe> bsilverstrim: sudo apt-get install mysql-server should do it I think
[09:31] <twopeak> what's a good app to make mp3s from a CD (with GUI)?
[09:31] <korean_girl> where is the source code for ubuntu's kernel?
[09:31] <bsilverstrim> mwe: that installs 5.
[09:31] <bsilverstrim> I'm trying to get 4.x installed.

[09:31] <frague> twopeak : sound-juicer make good oggs
[09:31] <narfmaster> bsilverstrim, sudo apt-get install mysql-server-4.1
[09:31] <bsilverstrim> trying to get metadot working, actually :-/
[09:31] <Pandora82> couldn't it be a problem with the hardware? driver?
[09:31] <Pandora82> zukalk yes
[09:31] <korean_girl> where is the source code for ubuntu's kernel?
[09:32] <Orbit45244> well, I know I have usb 2.0, but all I found in my BIOS was something about USB Legacy Mode, so I changed that, but it didn't help
[09:32] <zukalk> Pandora82: yes, it could
[09:32] <bsilverstrim> narf: the cut-and-paste was the result of that.
[09:32] <twopeak> frague, my ipod can't read that
[09:32] <ballpointcarrot> Pandora82: it sounds like a hardware problem, from your dmesg|grep hd pastebin.
[09:32] <frague> argh...
[09:32] <mwe> bsilverstrim: 5?
[09:32] <narfmaster> korean_girl, it's in "linux-source-2.6.15"
[09:32] <Pandora82> so how can I get the right driver... - for newbies ;-)
[09:32] <mwe> bsilverstrim: oh yes. sorry
[09:32] <zukalk> Pandora82: can you use the dvd drive for other things? CD-ROMs, Audio CDs, Data DVDs?
[09:33] <bsilverstrim> It tried to do the 4.1, but then it errored when unpacking the .deb.
[09:33] <Pandora82> zukalk yes, CDs (data, audio) works fine - I have no data DVDs to try this
[09:33] <mwe> bsilverstrim: but can you try again then paste the error on paste.ubuntu-nl.org ?
[09:33] <narfmaster> bsilverstrim, try removing mysql-server first
[09:33] <zukalk> Pandora82: then it doesn't appear to be a driver problem
