[00:00] <LjL> dug_: apparently down.
[00:01] <LjL> misc--: are they the same model? because older moders used an atheros card indeed, but the 901, 1000 and others have a ralink

[00:02] <hsl> has anyone a clue how I can restart my upgrade process? http://pastebin.com/d647938ed
[00:02] <misc--> LjL: yeah exactly the same. I'll double check with lspci actually
[00:02] <dug_> thanks
[00:02] <rww> hsl: once you've done what it says, you should be able to continue the upgrade process by reissuing the same command you issued the first time :)
[00:03] <jamesrdorn> hsl: dpkg --configure -a maybe?
[00:03] <hsl> rww: it tells me there is no new release
[00:03] <misc--> LjL: yep exactly the same. Maybe I have a module loaded on the one that doesn't work that is conflicting.
[00:03] <Yuretsz> jrib: I've tried to do DISPLAY=:0.0 vlc but still have the same error

[00:04] <stemount> hi guys - if I was to stop my machine from logging? could I symlink /var/log/ to /dev/null
[00:04] <stemount> for example
[00:05] <jrib> Yuretsz: does it work for you from a tty on your computer?
[00:05] <LjL> stemount: i don't think your syslog would like that - at all
[00:05] <rww> redwhitewaldo: since you just upgraded to 8.10, #ubuntu+1 should be able to help you. #ubuntu is only for 8.04 help :)
[00:05] <Syco54645> hello, all of my fonts are huge in gtk.  is there a way to set them to be smaller?

[00:05] <LjL> stemount: i'd rather edit /etc/syslog.conf
[00:05] <Syco54645> like my menu fonts and such
[00:05] <redwhitewaldo> rww: but maybe i can get help here. i'm desperate.
[00:05] <stemount> LjL: can you apt-get remove syslog?
[00:05] <stemount> or, how about a volume mounted as a tmpfs
[00:05] <Yuretsz> jrib: Wait, I'll try
[00:06] <LjL> stemount: if you do that, i believe logs will be written without the aid of syslogd
[00:06] <LjL> stemount: a tmpfs should work
[00:06] <stemount> cool
[00:06] <stemount> thanks

[00:06] <rww> hsl: Looks like you got most of the way through the install. A sudo apt-get update, followed by sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, should do it
[00:06] <mudkip> umount? i tried unmount
[00:06] <LjL> mudkip: umount.

[00:28] <mudkip> hi does anyone know if it's "an ubuntu install" or "a ubuntu install"
[00:28] <ppn> witch ssh server did you recomend me ?
[00:28] <esac> mudkip, a kernel is the core of the operating system. it is the lowest level to interact with hardware devices and provides support for memory management, etc.. it runs in its own 'layer' of the processor. when there is an error in the kernel, there is no fallback mechanism (unlike normal applications) so the only thing you can do is display debug information about the state of the system and freeze. this is a kernel panic
[00:28] <jrib> !ssh | ppn
[00:28] <Randall>  have a question on how to get a Geforce4: MX 420 card to work on hardy. WHen i go through hardware drivers I need to get nvidia-glx-legacy but instead it gets nvidia-glx
[00:29] <seij0> Randall: No I don't. That is the problem. I only see Dial-Up
[00:29] <tarelerulz1> dug_ your lucky man. I had problem since I installed in on 7.10 and 8.04 . It works right sometimes ,but sometimes it just push my cpu up a lot.  I mean I know 40 % is not normal for media player to do that.
[00:29] <Randall> seij0: try sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[00:29] <mudkip> esac: how can you recover from a kernel panic then?
[00:29] <ppn> thanskl
[00:30] <mrichman> Why do I get connection refused when trying to ssh localhost ?
[00:30] <seij0> Randall: Nothing seems to have happened
[00:30] <esac> mudkip, reboot. if it happens again then it is usually a bad module that you can try to blacklist from /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist , if you can boot off a system rescue cd. if it still happens past that, then it could be a misconfigured kernel or bad hardware. you could file a bug report on launchpad.net and have somebody help you to diagnose it
[00:30] <Randall> seij0: if nothing happens it means it works right click on nm-applet and see if there is a wireless option
[00:31] <mudkip> what about the documents i was working on in pico?
[00:31] <Randall> seij0: also run ndiswrapper -l and pastebin the output for me
[00:31] <seij0> Randal: Nope, nothing

[00:33] <passbe|work> i have just accidentally corrupted a file that i was working on. /var/www/project/index.php. this is a long shot but would ubuntu or apache have cached it, the index.php~ file is useless as it is days old.
[00:33] <MolePrinzzz> Hi.  In Gnome there is a control panel applet to show current temperature and such for my timezone.  Is there a similar function under Kubuntu please?

[00:34] <chad> any idea as to why i cannot ping local resources on my net?  DNS is setup and I am getting my info from dhcp, i just cant ping anything on this net via name
[00:34] <seij0> Randall: airplus: driver installed bcmwl5: driver installed device (14E4:4318) present (alternative driver: bcm43xx)
[00:34] <MolePrinzzz> chad: Try commenting out the server or domain line in /etc/resolv.conf
[00:35] <Randall> seij0: well i'm out of ideas cause everything seems to be fine so keep asking in here
[00:35] <chad> MolePrinzzz: trying

[00:56] <esac> alesan, t61p here, in hardy i was having the same issue. i got a new hal pushed down, and at the same time i used envy-ng to switch to the 177 driver and it fixed the issue for me
[00:56] <MolePrince> chad: I'm a bit stumped as well I must say.  Sorry.
[00:56] <chad> MolePrince: np thanks for trying
[00:56] <esac> 177 nvidia driver that is
[00:56] <alesan> esac: uh? can you explain? what is a new hal "pushed down"??
[00:57] <esac> alesan, software update
[00:57] <chad> MolePrince: no other files are involved in the lookup of addresses or dns other than resolv.conf .. right ?
[00:57] <alesan> what is envy-ng? 177 driver of what?
[00:57] <esac> alesan, nvidia
[00:57] <InfiniteBlue> Does anyone use a dual monitor configuration on Intrepid? (ATI dual-head)
[00:57] <alesan> esac: I do not have nvidia graphics brrr...
[00:57] <alesan> I have intel
[00:57] <esac> alesan, hmm, maybe it was the hal that did it then
[00:57] <MolePrince> chad: Shouldn't be.  Might check your router settings and see if it's got something different too.
[00:58] <chad> MolePrince: kk

[01:00] <esac> alesan, although maybe hope for you. intrepid just suspended in about 5-10 seconds and resumed in 2-3 on my t61p with no issues

[01:01] <jkoce> tools > addons
[01:01] <alesan> esac: that is the name, the 'h' one
[01:01] <dr_willis> LF|Irssi,  you could just link some directory from the web server to point to your log files dir... no need to copy stuff around then
[01:01] <esac> alesan, yes, hardy
[01:01] <alesan> esac: that is why I hope they will upgrade the kernel in intrepid
[01:01] <esac> alesan, im saying when it is released at the end of this month you might want to try it

[01:02] <jkoce> frogscott click on plugins, and see which java is listed
[01:02] <crdlb> LF|Irssi: you could convert them to html for prettiness, google for "irc2html", there are several available
[01:02] <markbto> selven:  when it happened too me,  I think there was a kernel update,  and that is what took out my vmware tools
[01:02] <jkoce> frogscott mine says java plugin 1.6.0_07

[01:41] <zibba> FAJALOU: it's only as good as the drivers :(
[01:42] <dexter> SeaPhor....nope...not branded......i got the individual components
[01:42] <zibba> FAJALOU: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[01:42] <FAJALOU> zibba:  true. i think that it is supposed to be supported in .10
[01:42] <zibba> FAJALOU: i believe the cheap linksys USB ones are supported, they are only $30 or so
[01:42] <JulioNeto> is possible make a radio (FM) with Ubuntu? I'm working on a project and would like to adopt Ubuntu as the radio's SO.

[01:58] <dexter> zibba; dev/sdb3
[01:58] <zibba> dexter: fsck /dev/sdb3
[01:58] <FAJALOU> zibba:  could it possibly be because i had a port forwarding and loggin enabled (the card cut out) so i disabled those, and it worked?
[01:59] <zibba> FAJALOU: try rebooting 3 or 4 times. if your card is anything like mine, sometimes it will work on boot, sometimes not
[01:59] <FAJALOU> zibba:  well ya most of the time it works, but i think that the logging and portforwarding threw it off?
[01:59] <zibba> FAJALOU: unknown, try some reboots
[01:59] <FAJALOU> it's working now :P

[02:12] <zibba> RetrogradeCultur: it's a DUMB bug for a terminal emulator
[02:12] <Fezzler1> Something about Gparted?
[02:12] <zibba> Fezzler1: reset == delete ALL?
[02:12] <zibba> Fezzler1: what are you trying to do?
[02:13] <Fezzler1> zibba> I had trouble upgrading Gutsy to Hardy so I did a fresh install of Hardy

[02:14] <Fezzler1> zibba> I have an older 6gig HD that I put the OS on and a newer 200gig that I mapped to /home
[02:14] <zibba> Fezzler1: ok, so what's the goal here
[02:14] <zibba> Fezzler1: keep your /home and remove /?
[02:14] <Fezzler1> zibba> Someone here said my partitions were messed up and I needed to boot from LiveCD and use gparted to fix my partions
[02:15] <zibba> Fezzler1: what's your problem though? what are you trying to do?
[02:15] <Deeta> Hehe, the old 6GB HD should use more power while it is running than the 6GiB it holds is worth ;-) (while even ignoring the slower access speeds :)
[02:15] <Fezzler1> zibba> It wasn't so much about getting rid of either.  They said my sd1 partition was too small and my sd0 was split
[02:16] <zibba> Deeta: good for swap I guess
[02:16] <SyL> I've got the Atheroes madwifi driver install in 8.10, but this asprire 5315 laptop doesn't seem to be able to see the wifi. it appears as an unknown driver. ideas?
[02:16] <Fezzler1> zibba> IN plain language, my 200gig was two 96.6 gig drives instead of one big drive
[02:16] <SeaPhor> Fezzler1, "someone here" = who? cause they need to follow thru and help you sety up///
[02:16] <zibba> Fezzler1: gotcha, but you resized it now
[02:16] <Fezzler1> zibba> make sense?
[02:16] <spragie> Does anyone know what the fd0 mount is for in kubuntu ?
[02:16] <zibba> Fezzler1: i still have no clue what your problem is though
[02:16] <zibba> spragie: mount /dev/fd0 /mnt ?
[02:17] <spragie> zibba: yes it appears to be out of the first hd

[02:17] <Fezzler1> zibba> or Flanner
[02:17] <Fezzler1> zibba> of Flanner
[02:17] <Pici> spragie: fd0 is for the floppy drive.
[02:17] <zibba> Fezzler1: let me ask you this, is there any data on the drives you are trying to save or are you just looking to wipe everything?
[02:18] <spragie> Pici: yes but i dont have a floppy hooked up, and it appears as a partition out of my primary hd

[02:22] <alesan> even synaptic crashes immediately
[02:22] <mrlabor1> now they are not letting the audio work at all
[02:22] <dexter> zibba  so watdo i do now
[02:22] <geremy> really looking for some help in getting my tv out to work- intel 945 integrated controller, s video
[02:22] <zibba> clogged: anything in menu about fullscreen?
[02:22] <mxweas> basically I am installing ubuntu and it needs to put grub on the partition ubuntu is on. but I don't know if it's /dev/sda1-5...
[02:23] <zibba> dexter: what happen after fsck
[02:23] <dexter> i just got this output  fsck 1.40.8 (13-Mar-2008)
[02:23] <mxweas> I think I am doing it wrong because it fuxx up my windows partition when I try /dev/sda2 which is what it should be going onto
[02:23] <zibba> dexter: that's kind of weird, what about fdisk -l /dev/sda
[02:24] <mxweas> So can I skip the grub part and do it later why any chance?
[02:24] <Chris_Britton> dexter, thanks for the suggestion - not doing it for me :(

[02:24] <infinite> hi folks i installed a driver(nvidia-glx) and something must've gone wrong.Every time i try to dnl n install new packages it gives me "Errors were encountered while processing: nvidia-glx. I tried to remove nvidia-glx but without any luck so far.can somebody help me?
[02:25] <zibba> infinite: apt-get remove nvidia-glx ; apt-get install nvidia-glx
[02:25] <evan_> is it possible to dualscreen when having 1 ati and 1 nvidia card?
[02:25] <dexter> zibba.....how can i c my partitions in livecd
[02:25] <zibba> evan_: yes but you will have to manually configure /etc/X11/xorg.conf

[02:26] <zibba> SpinachHead: some, there is a list on the wiki
[02:26] <memeemeee> specifically for podcast
[02:26] <evan_> zibba: the problem is more of getting both gflrx and nvidia driver at the same time
[02:26] <zibba> memeemeee: negative
[02:26] <infinite> zibba: already tried that, it gives me the same error
[02:26] <vexeu> im looking for something that will put to 2 avi files together
[02:26] <SeaPhor> zibba, Chris_Britton , there is something dexter is not telling...
[02:26] <zibba> evan_: i didn't say you would have GL
[02:26] <memeemeee> thanks zibba
[02:27] <zibba> evan_: probably 2D only
[02:27] <evan_> zibba: ?
[02:27] <Chris_Britton> SeaPhor, enlighten me
[02:27] <dexter> zibba; i tried /dev/sdb3 ..but i get permission denied

[02:29] <Fezzler1> can I run gparted from the HD that I booted from?
[02:29] <dexter> zibba...i entered the password..but authentication failed
[02:29] <SeaPhor> dexter, there is something you have left out of the question, support can only help if all is known
[02:29] <Guest61077> lauchcast=yahoo streaming music
[02:29] <zibba> Fezzler1: no one knows which liveCD you have
[02:29] <roxan> Fezzler1, yes. but you cant change the things you are on

[02:31] <zibba> infinite: sudo dpkg --force-all -r
[02:31] <Coded1> zibba:  ty
[02:31] <Fezzler1> roxan> Will changing my partitions impact the data on the harddrives I repartition
[02:31] <infinite> zibba:ty
[02:31] <zibba> Fezzler1: yes, it will be lost if you don't do it properly, i recommend backup
[02:31] <seronis> question:  does anyone know how to make Nautilus allow you to right click on a folder icon and choose to open a console window with the folder set as the current work directory ?

[02:32] <asplund> Quick question.  I am running Intrepid Ibex, and when things updated, my ethernet connection disappeared.  I am using the onboard ethernet on a biostar nvidia 8200 motherboard, and it has been working well for weeks, but with the last kernel upgrade, there is not ethernet available.  When I run the connection manager, there are no options for wired connections.  I can hand load the r8169 module (which I think is the right one), and hand edit the /etc/networ
[02:32] <dexter> SeaPhor; its that my filesystem is containing errors which i have pasted it before and given to zibba.....
[02:32] <vluser> anyone here been able to make a wacom tablet work? using hardy
[02:32] <zibba> vluser: yes
[02:33] <geremy> vluser: yes

[02:33] <vluser> mine doesn't
[02:33] <geremy> vluser: otb for me
[02:33] <vluser> wow

[02:34] <geremy> really looking for some help in getting my tv out to work- intel 945 integrated controller, s video
[02:35] <dexter> musikgoat...r u ther
[02:35] <dexter> SeaPhor..have u got it
[02:35] <seronis> zibba: EXACTLY what i've been needing,  thank you
[02:36] <musikgoat> dexter: sorry, back, where are you at with live cd, did you check mount yet, paste it for me
[02:37] <SeaPhor> dexter, yes, and i told you, your HDD is prolly dying, if not then your bios is reading it incorrectly, either way you need to update the bios, and the run a check on your HDD
[02:40] <AbstortedMinds> I have an intel imac, and everything works great, but i think i need to install a driver for the video card, does ubuntu do this automatically or do i have to install it
[02:40] <indra> i can't unmount root particion
[02:41] <indra> partition
[02:41] <terje> how can I configure my desktop system not to boot into Gnome. I don't want to run X11.
[02:41] <geremy> does anybody have any recommendations for where I could go to get some more help with my tv out issue?
[02:41] <SeaPhor> peace -out
[02:42] <mrpockets> so Brasero just botched a burn, and now the drive is "busy" and won't open or burn anything else
[02:42] <mrpockets> tried to  unmount it but it says its not mounted.
[02:43] <indra> i don't know how unmount
[02:43] <type_t> cat /proc/partitions
[02:43] <roxan> mrpockets, try sudo eject
[02:43] <mrpockets> roxan,  yeah that just worked
[02:43] <mrpockets> thanks
[02:44] <Randall> So, I have a question i have a Nvidia Geforce4: MX 420 on hardy heron and when i enable it in hardware drivers and reboot it tells me i have to boot in low-graphics mode. How do i tell if i have installed the drivers properly? and i've heard i need nvidia-glx from some people and nvidia-glx-legacy from others?
[02:44] <indra> yes i was write
[02:44] <indra> i don't have unmount command
[02:44] <scunizi> Randall, have you tried to make modifications to the driver via nvidia-settings?  sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings
[02:45] <mrpockets> indra, umont
[02:45] <mrpockets> umount  *
[02:45] <roxan> mrpockets, umount -a = umount *
[02:45] <Randall> scunizi: i'm not quite sure how to, but it claims to be installed
[02:46] <mrpockets> lol, no, i meant that * as a correction to my previous typo
[02:46] <indra> thanks
[02:46] <scunizi> Randall, there are a couple of ways to access it.. from terminal with nvidia-settings and system>Admin>Nvidia X server settings
[02:46] <type_t> botched brasero burn.. its has to reset the .. somehow.
[02:47] <mrpockets> type_t, wtf're you talking about
[02:47] <Logikos> i'm a windows user that has dabeled a little bit with linux here and there, id eventualy like to switch over to useing only linux ... but i dont want to sacrifice windows incase i need to do something in a hurry and dont have time to figure it out in linux ... is there an easy way to make it so i can use both on one computer?
[02:47] <Jangari> !pastebin
[02:47] <Randall> scunizi: k, when i access it...it tells me i need to run it as root or something but when i type that it crashes the x-server. and i'm not sure what to change?
[02:47] <Cycom> Logikos: Dual boot!
[02:48] <roxan> !dualboot | Logikos
[02:48] <scunizi> Randall, try starting it with sudo nvidia-settings
[02:48] <Cycom> Logikos: use something like Gparted to resize your discs (sorry guys, I still don't trust the installers resizing) and the install linux on the free space!
[02:48] <alesan> Logikos: Cycom: dual boot is so unconvenient. I work very well with virtual machines.
[02:48] <Randall> scunizi: and after that what would i change
[02:48] <Logikos> Cycom: i understand the concept but not sure how to set it up, do i instal windows first, then linux on the same partition, do i instal linux first, then windows .. on same or different partitions
[02:48] <type_t> its happened where its like in lala land . cant close some eFing connection..
[02:48] <Cycom> alesan: yeah, but no wobbly windows in a VM :)
[02:48] <Logikos> Cycom: reading that, sec
[02:48] <scunizi> Logikos, there are several ways.. dual boot.. virtual box and vmware and install windows in a vm.
[02:48] <alesan> Cycom: why?
[02:48] <Cycom> alesan: no 3d support.
[02:48] <Cycom> alesan: at least, not with a windblows support.
[02:48] <roxan> Logikos, vm is alos a good idea and I also do the same
[02:48] <amuseme> or lived CD
[02:49] <scunizi> Randall, check  the resolution settings and make the needed changes for your system
[02:49] <alesan> Cycom: vmware has 3d support inside virtual machines.
[02:49] <go_beep_yourself> my friend just installed openssh-server i can ping, nmap shows 22 open, i get a login prompt with his username asking for the password. i put in the password correct everytime and get permission denied. he even tried changing the password and we tried that. any ideas? please help.
[02:49] <alesan> anyway
[02:49] <Logikos> roxan: is vm kinda like ms virtual pc ?
[02:49] <Cycom> alesan: only for DX9, not for openGL
[02:49] <Jangari> http://paste.ubuntu.com/63499/ this is my output from trying to install a java application from a .bin file running ./file.bin. Any idea what's going wrong?
[02:49] <roxan> Logikos, exactly but far better
[02:49] <alesan> why do you need 3d, the most unuseful feature ever.
[02:49] <Cycom> go_beep_yourself: permission denied?
[02:49] <Cycom> alesan: I use expo and scale constantly.
[02:49] <Randall> scunizi: do i have to do that after i enable the driver from hardware drivers. Right now it says i don't appear to be using the nvidia x driver
[02:49] <go_beep_yourself> Cycom-> Permission denied, please try again.
[02:50] <scunizi> Randall, yes
[02:50] <alesan> Cycom: I am not sure what is that but - do you need that in a virtual machine?
[02:50] <Logikos> roxan: so you have linux instaled and run windows in a vm ? does it have full access to all resources and perifials (usb ports etc) .. i know i had problems with ms virtual pc in that it couldnt see my flash drives for some reason
[02:50] <dublpaws> go_beep_yourself: there might be a setting in sshd.conf (or something) where remote login is disabled
[02:50] <alesan> do you need that so much that you dual boot for that?
[02:50] <roxan> Logikos, yes
[02:50] <Randall> scunizi: also would you know if i need nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-legacy
[02:50] <roxan> Logikos, you can access all usb devices
[02:50] <Cycom> alesan: need? no. Want? yes.
[02:50] <roxan> !enter | roxan
[02:51] <Cycom> go_beep_yourself: how are you connecting to the machine?
[02:51] <scunizi> Randall, I've run nvidia-gls with a mx-440 just fine so maybe that one for yours.
[02:51] <indra> umount /dev/sda1
[02:51] <Cycom> go_beep_yourself: like 'ssh <host>' from your linux box?
[02:51] <indra> i am writting umount /dev/sda1
[02:51] <Logikos> roxan: all of my hdd's are ntfs ... i could clear my primary drive out and keep my data on the other drives so that way i can use whatever ubuntu prefers for a filesystem on it ... but will both ubuntu and windows from the vm be able to access the other ntfs drives efficently?
[02:51] <indra> and he say device is busy
[02:52] <bug_> Hi I'm trying to change my startup sounds but they are not working, what do I do to get them to play?
[02:52] <Cycom> Logikos: if you want to really use linux, I'd say dual boot, and force yourself to use it
[02:52] <Randall> scunizi: what is the exact command to check resolution settings and how do i change it in nvidia-settings
[02:52] <Cycom> Logikos: or, if you have an extra machine, use that instead.  Linux will run well on just about anything newer than 5 years old :)
[02:52] <roxan> Logikos, yes it can. with shared drive. but if you want to put vmware's virtual machine in ntfs partition nudge me for a little trick
[02:53] <scunizi> Randall, once you enable the restricted driver then start nvidia settings it's graphical .. you'll see it
[02:53] <n8tuser1> indra-> sudo fuser -k /dev/sda1  assuming that sda1 is not where your root  /   is
[02:53] <roxan> Logikos, trust me go for it. you wont regret
[02:53] <Randall> k
[02:53] <indra> thx
[02:53] <n8tuser1> Randall-> dont know if  xdpyinfo  would show it
[02:53] <indra> know is work
[02:54] <Randall> scunizi: will it tell me i need to start in a "low-res" graphics mode because that's what happens everytime i try enabling the driver
[02:54] <Logikos> Cycom: i used to put linux on my secondary pc ... and figured i'd learn it ... and i messed with it a little but ... i didnt disiplin myself enough to use it :\
[02:54] <scunizi> Randall, maybe..
[02:54] <bug_> do the wavs have to be a certain length to be played on startup?
[02:54] <Cycom> Logikos: basically, I put linux on my laptop and forced myself to use it for everything
[02:55] <Cycom> Logikos: there were some times when I REALLY NEEDED WINDOWS because I had no idea what I was doing, but it turned out that I just learned how to do it in linux.
[02:55] <roxan> Logikos, if you want to use it use it. if you put in two pc you will never learn.
[02:55] <roxan> Logikos, i agree with cycom
[02:55] <scunizi> Logikos, what things do you think that you won't be able to do easily in linux that you would have to do quickly in windows?
[02:55] <Cycom> Logikos: gradually I noticed neat things along the way like I could mount network shares more easily, or surf the web without worrying so much about viruses, or have my mighty mouse's horizontal scroll work
[02:56] <Cycom> Logikos: videos suddenly played without 10 different applications
[02:56] <roxan> Logikos, actioni speaks louder than words. if you want to discuss between windows and linux you will get old and the discussion will still conitnue.
[02:56] <SeaPhor> Randall, yes, then sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings
[02:56] <Arouca> oieee
[02:56] <Cycom> Logikos: I didn't need to buy software as often, and when I did, I got a lot more value for my money.
[02:56] <Randal1> seaphor: yes to what?
[02:56] <Cycom> awwww
[02:57] <SeaPhor> then set your own ...
[02:57] <roxan> Cycom, you can always donate money you were going to waste on software to projects like olpc
[02:57] <Randal1> seaphor: but do u know if it will tell me it needs to start in a "low-res" mode after i restart the comp after enabling?
[02:57] <SeaPhor> then set your own ... Randall
[02:57] <riz0n> has anyone successfully configured ubuntu to allow vnc sessions to gdm
[02:58] <Cycom> roxan: I use it to buy gas for my car instead :)
[02:58] <roxan> riz0n, didnt' get you
[02:58] <Jangari> anyone know of a MIDlet emulator that works on linux?
[02:58] <riz0n> ok here's what im trying to do.. im trying to set it up where i can use VNC to connect to gdm (a login window) and allow me to login to this server with any username or password on the system
[02:58] <roxan> Cycom, whatever you do its your money :P
[02:59] <riz0n> i want this to also to be separate from the console xdm/gnome session
[02:59] <Cycom> roxan: till I spend it.  Or pay taxes on it.
[02:59] <SeaPhor> Randal1, have you installed drivers from the nvidia site?
[02:59] <roxan> riz0n, there is remote loging opton but havn't tried it
[02:59] <Cycom> riz0n: iirc gnome can't do more than one session
[02:59] <Logikos> Cycom: yeah, i need to get there, i've messed with linux off and on alot ... but usualy used it to make servers ... rather than actualy useing it as a workstation ... for it to replace windows i need to use it as a worksation .. i can use firefox on linux, and openoffice ... and i hope to find other linux software to replace the other things i do...
[02:59] <Cycom> Logikos: just get vmware on linux and run windows in a VM if the poop hits the fan
[02:59] <riz0n> well normally there wont be anyone logged in from the console
[02:59] <himuraWinMo> Hey all. I am trying find a good opensource/free documentation software. any suggestions?
[02:59] <Randal1> seaphor: no, I haven't no one has explained to me how really i've tried stuff read lots of wikis and community docs but nothing seems to work
[03:00] <Logikos> Cycom, roxan: thank you both for your help
[03:00] <Cycom> Logikos: good luck m8
[03:01] <Jangari> himuraWinMo: documentation software?
[03:01] <hellhound> is there a way to set the screensaver to not activate when watching a flash video ?
[03:01] <SeaPhor> Randal1, so yo have "tried" stuff, does that mean you have installed "stuff"?
[03:01] <riegersn> How can I check if my dvd burner can burn dual layer dvd's ?
[03:01] <scunizi> SeaPhor, Randal1 has an older mx420 card..  the newer driver won't neccessarily work for him
[03:01] <roxan> Logikos, see you soon on linux :P
[03:02] <scunizi> riegersn, try it.
[03:02] <Randal1> scunizi: i can give u info u need to help me because i am on a wireless right now i don't necesarrily want to restart
[03:02] <fassar> helo
[03:02] <scunizi> riegersn, k3b is a better burner than brassero .. at least in my opinion
[03:02] <himuraWinMo> Hey all.  I won't know how to fix that for Randal1 .. do you have the experience to do that?
[03:03] <Randal1> scunizi: whatever info u need to figure out what is wrong
[03:03] <Fezzler1> If my boot drive is 6.01 gig, how big should my swap file be?  321mB too small
[03:04] <flemota> i cant install my webcam
[03:04] <roxan> Fezzler1, its dependend on ram not boot drive
[03:04] <SeaPhor> scunizi, Randal1 my suggestion is to to go to ground zero, and start fresh
[03:04] <sirjoebob> Fezzler1: swap should be about 3x RAM
[03:04] <himuraWinMo> i manage a small team of network technicians. we use a custom web app for collecting customer info. you know, IP info, cdkeys, and etc.
[03:04] <scunizi> Randal1, sounds like SeaPhor might be able to guide you better.. I wouldn't know where to start
[03:04] <roxan> flemota, so
[03:04] <riegersn> scunizi, found it "cdrecord dev=/dev/hdb -prcap"
[03:04] <Randal1> scunizi: thanks for trying :)
[03:05] <scunizi> riegersn, ah so you're doing this from terminal?
[03:05] <roxan> himuraWinMo, redmine, mediawiki
[03:05] <Randal1> SeaPhor: meaning how?
[03:05] <scunizi> Randal1, np.. wish I could have helped more.
[03:05] <himuraWinMo> i would like to replace our current app with a searchable app that allows attachments and such.
[03:05] <flemota> my ubuntu dont detect the webcam
[03:05] <flemota> its Usb
[03:05] <himuraWinMo> Just got mediawiki installed today. what is redmine?
[03:05] <riegersn> scunizi, im not "trying" to burn one now, just want a way to check if my burner can
[03:06] <roxan> flemota, run and see the output lsusb
[03:06] <hellhound> is there a way to set the screensaver to not activate when watching a flash video ?
[03:06] <roxan> himuraWinMo, you can search
[03:06] <roxan> himuraWinMo, its like launchpad
[03:06] <scunizi> flemota, webcam support is spotty.. there are so many different chipsets and very few linux based drivers.
[03:06] <Randal1> SeaPhor: what do u mean go to ground zero?
[03:06] <Fezzler1> how do i see my total ram?
[03:06] <himuraWinMo> lol. gotcha. searching is tough atm. WinMobile.
[03:06] <himuraWinMo> thanks for the info
[03:06] <sirjoebob> Fezzler: you can type free
[03:06] <SeaPhor> scunizi, Randal1 scunizi is more experienced than i, but i have found that with xorg issues, just start over
[03:06] <scunizi> riegersn, ah.. k.. k3b might do that to. but via the gui
[03:07] <Randal1> SeaPhor: so how would i go about doing that>
[03:07] <sirjoebob> Fezzler: that will tell you total ram. then RAMx3=swap is a pretty good thing to go off of
[03:07] <roxan> sirjoebob, Fezzler1 3X is not always right
[03:08] <type_t> riz0n .. you are trying to get vnc  .. whats the package name of the vnc software?
[03:08] <Fezzler1> looks like I have 645164 ram, so my swamp file should be?
[03:08] <sirjoebob> roxan: I always heard that 3x would be a good benchmark what do you think then?
[03:08] <bobesponja> hey all
[03:08] <bobesponja> my cdrom is broken and my latop can't boot from usb, is there a way to make grub boot from a usb cdrom?
[03:08] <bobesponja> my cdrom player*
[03:08] <roxan> sirjoebob, if you have 1 Gig of ram then 3Gig of swap would be nonsense
[03:09] <goldmetal> can vim 7.x be install as user instead of root in a linux box?
[03:09] <scunizi> roxan, if you ever watch your swap usage you'll find that mostly it's not used .. unless you're doing a lot of video editing and intensive stuff like that.
[03:09] <SeaPhor> scunizi, Randal1 boot from live cd, do a sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /media/disk/etc/X11/xorg.conf and that will load theoriginal xorg that you had to start with
[03:09] <roxan> sirjoebob, also these days laptops come with 4 gig of ram then 12 gig of swap??? Fezzler1  can you ut -h option
[03:09] <roxan> scunizi, exactly then why waste disk space
[03:09] <Randal1> SeaPhor: does it have to be a hardy live cd
[03:10] <scunizi> SeaPhor, Randal1 close .. not quite..
[03:10] <sirjoebob> roxan: true. good point. i started out working on older HW and that is why he told me to run that much SWAP. I have 2GB of RAM and don't run SWAP
[03:10] <SeaPhor> Randal1, what are you on?
[03:10] <Randal1> SeaPhor: I am using 8.04 hardy heron
[03:10] <T_D_H> Is there a way with the 8.04 install disk to not run the GUI installer?
[03:10] <type_t> riz0n ?
[03:11] <Fezzler1> ut -h = command not found
[03:11] <soreau> T_D_H: The alternate cd
[03:11] <bastid_raZor> T_D_H; use the alternate cd to install
[03:11] <SeaPhor> Randal1, then yeah, that would be best
[03:11] <scunizi> Randal1, you have to mount the drive in the live cd to do that then you have to find the mount point to copy the xorg to.
[03:12] <Randal1> SeaPhor: scunizi would it be better just to wait until Ibex is realeased and try again
[03:12] <upt1me> node.net
[03:12] <scunizi> Randal1, SeaPhor sometimes it's easier not to use the live cd.. just go to Places/File system and look in /etc/X11/ for an older copy.. If it was done automatically it will be dated.. just copy that back to xorg.conf
[03:13] <SeaPhor> scunizi, that is true...
[03:13] <Randal1> SeaPhor: scunizi would it be better just to wait until Ibex is realeased and try again
[03:13] <roxan> Xchat::hook_print('Join', sub { return Xchat::EAT_XCHAT if (lc Xchat::get_info('channel') eq '#ubuntu'); return Xchat::EAT_NONE; });
[03:14] <scunizi> Randal1, SeaPhor also you could just install ibex now since it's in RC and do the daily updates..
[03:14] <go_beep_yourself> how can i find out what gid=41 is?
[03:14] <Randal1> scunizi: RC?
[03:15] <roxan> grep 41 /etc/group
[03:15] <scunizi> Randal1, SeaPhor one thing to do on a reinstall is to make sure you create a seperate /home partition for all your date.. that way if you really mess things up and need to reinstall you can without loosing all your data.. I experienced that in the last week with a failed harddrive.
[03:15] <SeaPhor> scunizi, that is true...and you can document it that way too
[03:15] <Randal1> ok thanks for the help :)
[03:15] <scunizi> Randal1, RC=release candidate.. it's the release just before the official release with most of the bugs worked out.
[03:16] <Fezzler1> what tells me total ram?  free -t?
[03:17] <Bangers> for some reason, my apach2 httpd.conf file is empty, how can I do a clean reinstall of apache2 so it restores it to default?
[03:17] <roxan> Fezzler1, free -m
[03:17] <Bangers> apt-get remove and install didnt work
[03:18] <lin> hello
[03:18] <lin> Is anyone here?
[03:18] <csilk> yes
[03:18] <musikgoat> !hello
[03:18] <roxan> Bangers, thats the ubuntu way
[03:18] <Fezzler1> says 630
[03:18] <roxan> Bangers, see apache2.conf
[03:18] <cakey_> 360
[03:18] <lin> about this? how to use?
[03:18] <SeaPhor> TY scunizi , for separate home ,,, let me know if this is helpful:  http://www.wood-bee-co.com/woodbeeco/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=35&Itemid=9
[03:18] <lin> 360
[03:18] <lin> 630
[03:19] <csilk> ?
[03:19] <roxan> lin what do you mean?
[03:20] <Fezzler1> I probably have 640 - 2x256 and 1x 128
[03:20] <Fezzler1> so what should be my swap file?
[03:20] <roxan> Fezzler1, you mean ram?
[03:20] <scunizi> SeaPhor, similar to what I followed the first time.. basically create a new partition and copy your data to it.. then change fstab to referance the new /home
[03:20] <Fezzler1> yes
[03:21] <roxan> Fezzler1, try with 512 MB of swap
[03:21] <rebel_kid> i have a disc with one scratch on it, it works just fine but I cant copy it, how and with what can i copy this disc ignoring the errors
[03:21] <roxan> Fezzler1, there is no hard and fast rule
[03:21] <csilk> !chinese
[03:21] <csilk> !chinese > lin
[03:22] <SeaPhor> scunizi, thanx again, i hope i wasn't stepping on your toes
[03:22] <scunizi> SeaPhor, no not at all.
[03:23] <zmonx> every once in a while, my laptop fan starts, even though I do not work on the laptop at all; "top" shows no suspicious background task. what could cause that?
[03:24] <scunizi> zmonx, heat
[03:24] <roxan> zmonx, he is colling your laptop
[03:24] <musikgoat> zmonx: cpu temp?
[03:24] <csilk> zmonx, sounds normal
[03:24] <zmonx> on login, I see: temp 55 C
[03:24] <zmonx> (login via ssh)
[03:24] <roxan> zmonx, i would complain if he stops doing so
[03:24] <rebel_kid> zmonx, if the laptop is on, it is using power and creating heat, if you are using it, it will create more heat
[03:25] <ubuntuchicka> has anyone successfully set up a virtual box or whatever and installed msoffice? would anyone happen to know a super cool !virtualmsoffice linky thing?
[03:25] <zmonx> it spins up about every 20 seconds; I understand it should spin once in a while, so I'm mainly looking on how to turn it down a bit.
[03:26] <scunizi> ubuntuchicka, not with office but that should be trivial.. do you have windows installed in vbox?
[03:26] <SeaPhor> zmonx, and if its a vista box,,, then you can bank on it using more than it should!
[03:26] <jmichaelx> ubuntuchicka: i have vista with msoffice installed on this machine using virtualbox.... but you still need to have licenses for both the windows OS and the office suite
[03:27] <ubuntuchicka> scunizi: i haven't done anything with a vbox ever.  i just wanted a way to run msoffice so i could sync my winmo phone... i really don't know what i am talking about but i wanted to make sure i was googling in the right direction
[03:28] <zmonx> SeaPhor: that's not a very great relief right now, but thanks.
[03:28] <ubuntuchicka> is vbox separate from virtual machine?
[03:28] <scunizi> ubuntuchicka, well.. you install vbox then install windows into vbox and activate windows.. then install office just like you normally would.. that easy.
[03:28] <igors> hi all..the CTRL+S in my gedit doesn't save anymore, open the Find dialog, anybody knows how can i change it?
[03:28] <jmichaelx> ubuntuchicka: what does msoffice have to do with a phone?
[03:29] <SeaPhor> zmonx, sorry, not bashing windows, just being honest
[03:29] <scunizi> ubuntuchicka, you could also use vmware.. same sort of thing
[03:29] <babaklinux> hi
[03:29] <jmichaelx> installing and using vbox is very easy, same is probably so for vmware
[03:29] <roxan> !welcome | babaklinux
[03:30] <babaklinux> what command can format my floppy disk?
[03:30] <Corelogik> Will someone answer a newb question,...
[03:30] <clockw0rk> hi guys
[03:30] <roxan> !ask | Corelogik
[03:30] <scunizi> !ask | Corelogik
[03:30] <ubuntuchicka> thanks scunizi! jmichaelx, i need to sync my contacts/calendar/tasks/etc preferably to outlook
[03:30] <ubuntuchicka> scunizi: vmware is a windows running thingy?
[03:30] <Jadewolf> Hi, do you guys know of a dvd encoding program in ubuntu?
[03:30] <Corelogik> Where's the best place to buy an Ubuntu Pre Installed system on a budget, Dell's sales support is clueless,..
[03:30] <scunizi> ubuntuchicka, just like vbox.. sort of .. same basic capability
[03:31] <clockw0rk> jadewolf: DeVeDe
[03:31] <scunizi> Corelogik, Dell  is probably it.. order it direct from the website.. you need a link?
[03:31] <jmichaelx> ubuntuchicka: i am not sure, but i would suspect that there is a chance that you could do the same thing with linux apps
[03:31] <Corelogik> No, thanks have the link,..
[03:31] <babaklinux> what command can format my floppydisk?
[03:32] <ubuntuchicka> scunizi: so would you recommend i check out vmware or vbox first?
[03:32] <scunizi> babaklinux, type man fdisk into a terminal for instructions
[03:32] <rebel_kid> is there a program or a command to ignore disc reading errors while burning?
[03:32] <superjoe30> what would you use a floppy disk for anyways?
[03:32] <Corelogik> The sales agent at Dell tried to tell me that the support packages they offer were for the DVD playback license,..
[03:32] <zmonx> ubuntuchicka: vbox; it's free and only distroys your disk image rarely
[03:32] <roxan> scunizi, i need the link.
[03:32] <scunizi> ubuntuchicka, vmware is a little more straight forwared.  but vbox offers a nice interface.. you have to get vbox from their site to get usb support
[03:33] <Jadewolf> clockw0rk, thanks, I just had an event here at my house and want to encode the avi's to a dvd for giving out to the guests
[03:33] <ubuntuchicka> jmichaelx: yeah, i have done tons of googling about how to sync with evolution but i am an accounting/finance major and i am going to need excel anyway
[03:33] <scunizi> roxan, k.. just a sec
[03:33] <ubuntuchicka> um...scary
[03:33] <scunizi> roxan, http://www.dell.com/content/topics/segtopic.aspx/ubuntu?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&dgc=IR&cid=11973&lid=471885
[03:34] <Corelogik> I'm going to need a laptop and a desktop I can dual head in about another month,...
[03:34] <jmichaelx> ubuntuchicka: ok gotcha. i use virtualbox and found it to be very easy to use. vmware may be just as eay, i have no idea. if you use virtualbox, you will want to download the version from the website, in order to have usb support
[03:34] <Corelogik> time to retire the Mac's
[03:34] <Randal1> when i install things and it gets to a debconf thing the computer always freezes after i try and click foward and when i reopen the window the info is gone
[03:35] <ubuntuchicka> fabulous
[03:35] <cakey_> fabu
[03:35] <Corelogik> I'm looking at about 1500 for both to start then upgrade to dual display, memory and HDD later
[03:35] <ubuntuchicka> i am going to go check that out. thanks guys!
[03:36] <Corelogik> Don't get me wrong, I like my Mac's, but theyre getting old and I cant afford to keep paying apple,..
[03:36] <Randal1> when i install things and it gets to a debconf thing the computer always freezes after i try and click foward and when i reopen the window the info is gone so now i have a broken package
[03:36] <upt1me> whois ubuntuchicka
[03:36] <scunizi> Corelogik, you might just look at upgrading your motherboard that has a built in dual head nvidia card.. that an a processor I think I saw on tigerdirect for under $160
[03:37] <dVs--> hello everyone ..  i just reinstalled ubuntu on this computer, i have / on one partition and /home on another. When i reinstalled my user account set up fine, but when I try to add two other accounts that were on the other partition its giveing me an error about the dir already existing. Can someone tell me how to fix that ?
[03:37] <marcos22> alguno sabe como desinstalo el ubuntu de mi maquina?? quiero poner windows vista y me vino con esta garcha
[03:37] <Corelogik> iMac G5,.. no upgrading,... time to just get new machines
[03:38] <Corelogik> Seaphor, you have a page somewhere or just hang out here?
[03:38] <Corelogik> k
[03:38] <roxan> dVs--, because the user's directory already exists on home folder
[03:38] <Randal1> how do i fix broken packages exactly?
[03:38] <ubuntuchicka> upt1me: what do you mean who am i? i am just another ubuntu noob that's trying to learn more
[03:38] <dVs--> roxan:  correct how do i relink them ?
[03:39] <marcos22>
[03:39] <marcos22> one knows how to uninstall the ubuntu on my machine? I want to put Windows Vista
[03:39] <dVs--> or what do i do  ?
[03:39] <SeaPhor> G'night all
[03:39] <Corelogik> marcos22 , run the install disc and reformat?
[03:39] <scunizi> marcos22, go to ##windows for windows support
[03:39] <roxan> dVs--, ahmm go to the home partition rename all the folders that have the user name you were going to create and after creating just shift back
[03:39] <roxan> marcos22, theres windows KB on that
[03:40] <dVs--> heh .. k ..
[03:40] <dVs--> :/
[03:40] <marcos22>
[03:40] <marcos22> but I said there was an error in the partition
[03:40] <Randal1> how do i fix broken packages exactly?
[03:40] <sleven> where can  see a list of everyting i can apt-get?
[03:40] <roxan> dVs--, there may be better way though
[03:41] <roxan> Randal1, what do you mean?
[03:41] <Corelogik> marcos22 , unless soemthings changed with Vista, delete the partition, repartition the drive, reformat, install windows, pray,..
[03:41] <dVs--> how ?
[03:41] <scunizi> sleven, you can go to System/Admin/Synaptic package manager.
[03:41]  * Corelogik hasn't used Windows in 8 years,...
[03:41] <roxan> dVs--, if i ware you i would have done that. there may exists a better way of which i am unaware currently or isn't striking my mind
[03:42] <Randal1> roxan: well this debconf thing came up and froze  so i had to force quit the thing and it broke the pakage
[03:42] <dVs--> oh ok  ..  naw thats simple enough .. i juust didnt think of it :(
[03:42] <igors> hi all..the CTRL+S in my gedit doesn't save anymore, open the Find dialog, anybody knows how can i change it?
[03:42] <roxan> Randal1, wait
[03:43] <Randal1> roxan?
[03:43] <igors> i've already asked before, sorry...but i really have no idea what to do!
[03:43] <Randal1> roxan: like the window goes blank
[03:44] <justin__> Anyone able to tell me how to set up a L.A.M.P.?
[03:44] <scunizi> justin_, do you have desktop installed?
[03:44] <justin__> well it's on unslung
[03:44] <scunizi> justin_, ?
[03:44] <superjoe30> igors, system->preferences->apperance preferences->interface
[03:44] <justin__> er...
[03:45] <roxan> jussi01, http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_lamp_for_newbies
[03:45] <Corelogik> ooh, now theres a link I find useful
[03:45] <scunizi> roxan, there's an easier way
[03:45] <Randal1> k, when i update to ibex when it is released will it probably fix my driver issue with my video card
[03:46] <igors> superjoe30, i has "editable meu shortcuts keys", i've unchecked now, but how can i change the shortcut now?
[03:46] <justin__> I am running ubuntu, but i want to set up a torrent on a linksys wireless operating on linux, can only access it through terminal
[03:47] <Elijah> I am trying to get Ubuntu to work with Quickbooks online but it says I need IE 6 or higher? Is there a way to put IE 6 + on Ubuntu?
[03:47] <lufthanza> justin__: rtorrent
[03:47] <superjoe30> igors, make them editable, and then I dunno, right click on the toolbar in gedit or something and change it back, and then make them uneditable
[03:47] <roxan> Elijah, you can use wine but there is firefox addon that can do the same
[03:47] <justin__> I'm was trying to get torrentflux to work, but i can't seem to get the web interface to work
[03:47] <RoMeLuKo> God job! :D
[03:47] <scunizi> justin_, to install LAMP open Synaptic package manager.. go to edit and choose Mark Packages by Task.. in there you'll be able to put a check mark next to LAMP and install.
[03:48] <Randal1> k, when i update to ibex when it is released will it probably fix my driver issue with my video card also when i update do i need to specify during the update for it to update grub
[03:48] <scunizi> Randal1, don't do update.. do a reinstall.
[03:48] <roxan> !ibex | Randal1
[03:48] <lufthanza> I need help setting up an mta to use my yahoo  account to send email
[03:48] <justin__> I wish it were that easy, on here i could use synaptic but on the slug i can only use ipkg
[03:48] <Randal1> scunizi: how would i do that?
[03:49] <_2> roxan why did you call the bot on Randal1 ?
[03:49] <justin__> I just don't know how to set up mysql, or phpmyadmin to read php files I guess
[03:49] <scunizi> Randal1, download the new iso and burn it.. put it in the cd rom and restart the machine.. on boot it will have an install button after getting to the gui
[03:49] <Corelogik> Question about running LAMP stack on Linux, after install is there a directory somewhere that serves as web root for url's a browser?
[03:50] <scunizi> Corelogik, /var/www
[03:50] <Randal1> scunizi: so don't do it through update manger? and i won't lose files or have to repartition?
[03:50] <_2> Randal1 short answer to both of your questions.   hopefully and shouldn't.
[03:50] <Corelogik> scunizi http://localhost/var/www ?
[03:51] <_2> Randal1 just wait until the release date and use the update manager   (assuming it's not broken.)
[03:51] <scunizi> Randal1, if you currently have a seperate /home partition then no you won't if you don't format it as part of the install.. if your /home is part and parcel with your root directory now then you'll loose it unless you move it before installing.
[03:51] <justin__> i think it's /opt/share/www
[03:51] <Flannel> Corelogik: /var/www/ is http://localhost/
[03:51] <scunizi> justin_, nope
[03:51] <Randal1> scunizi: ok
[03:52] <Flannel> Corelogik: /var/www/index.html is http://localhost/index.html
[03:52] <blackvd> I just built a computer off newegg and ordered all the parts and remembered I need a wifi card for it. Given Linux track record with wifi I was wondering if someone could suggest a card that would work well?
[03:52] <Corelogik> Flannel, so how would I enter that in a browser to test pages? on my Mac its http://localhost/
[03:52] <roxan> Randal1, di you still need to fix the broken package?
[03:52] <Flannel> blackvd: Try #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:52] <blackvd> Flannel:ok thanks
[03:52] <Randal1> also it freezes when i get to this "Debconf on randall-desktop" part on the installation of a package is there anyway to fix this
[03:52] <scunizi> Corelogik, same
[03:52] <Flannel> Corelogik: You'd put something into /var/www/ and then view it in http://localhost/
[03:52] <Randal1> roxan: yes
[03:52] <justin__> right I was accessing it on a different server than my own puter
[03:52] <Corelogik> ah gotcha, thanks
[03:53] <roxan> Randal1, i have bad memory and i couldn't remember but sudo dpkg --configure -a is the thing u need
[03:53] <_2> !hardware > blackvd
[03:53] <scunizi> Randal1, maybe.. open synaptic and go to edit then choose Fix Broken Packages
[03:54] <babaklinux> do this command copy 1 in to the floppy ? dd if=/1 of=/dev/fd0
[03:54] <_2> babaklinux if file 1 exists in the pwd yes.
[03:54] <Elijah> roxan: Does the firefox addon fvully emulate IE?
[03:54] <_2> err i mean in  /
[03:54] <_2> sorry.
[03:55] <Randal1> if i fix the package from recovery mode do i need an active internet?
[03:55] <roxan> Elijah, i think it does. can you search in the addons
[03:55] <scunizi> Elijah, nothing fully emulates IE.. not even IE5lin
[03:55] <IamSOG> I have been trying to View this web page, but my friends tells me there's no way to View OCX under linux... but I wonder http://<IP_ADDRESS>:6081   <--- U guys know how to View this ?
[03:55] <roxan> Randal1, you can try without internet and come back to internet after it needs new thing
[03:55] <scunizi> *ie4linux
[03:56] <Randal1> actually i'll remove the pkg not sure how though
[03:56] <beiubong> hi moi nguoi
[03:56] <Elijah> I am in the field right now on my non-ubuntu compatible laptop, can anyone test this with a IE emulator in Ubuntu? http://oe.quickbooks.com/buy_now.cfm
[03:56] <Randal1> the part it gets stuck on is "Debconf"
[03:56] <_2> babaklinux "if=" translates to "input file is"    so it has to be a file (inode) at the address given.
[03:56] <Corelogik> IamSOG , looks like there somethign missing from the page, either some code or some kind of plugin
[03:56] <Elijah> I am trying to make a decision for a company very far away
[03:57] <roxan> Randal1, did you tried dpkg --configure -a
[03:57] <Elijah> The link will just say your browser is not compatible ... you need IE 6+
[03:57] <IamSOG> Corelogik it's not missing, just need um.. OCX
[03:57] <sleven> can i do something to get the PID of the terminal i have open (say i ahev several open)?
[03:58] <Randal1> roxan: dpkg: status database area is locked by another process
[03:58] <scunizi> Elijah, that's because it requires directx and probably some custom asp programming.. I go to several sites like that and as a result need windows installed in a VM.  Makes me mad but not much to do about it.
[03:58] <_2> babaklinux aslo the file will be writen "raw" to the "of="  which translates to "output file is"  and in the example you gave the file /dev/fd0 is the "floppy disk device"
[03:58] <scunizi> Randal1, try again after closing synaptic
[03:58] <Corelogik> Elijah , probably requires some srt of Active X control, thats specific to IE
[03:58] <flemota> #ubuntu-es #ubuntu-ar
[03:58] <Elijah> I wish quickbooks online would just work in more bloody browsers than IE 6
[03:58] <roxan> Randal1, then another process is doing it. ya close all synaptic, apt-get aptitude and all
[03:59] <sleven> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[03:59] <Randal1> scunizi: all i have open is update manager? and it won't really close
[03:59] <sleven> very annoying, how do i get rido fthat?
[03:59] <scunizi> Randal1, that's what you need to close
[03:59] <roxan> Randal1, you can do killall -9 udpate-manager
[03:59] <Elijah> Hmm, maybe I can just run their old version of quickbooks in Wine
[04:00] <bastid_raZor> sleven; either you need to use sudo or close some other program using your update manager .. synaptic or aptitude or apt-get
[04:00] <tarelerulz1> Is there any way to read .mkv tagging system in say nautilus ?
[04:00] <scunizi> Elijah, remember win2k & pro don't need activation for installation in a vm
[04:00] <_2> roxan OUCH  -9  ?     will plain killall not do it ?
[04:01] <roxan> _2 it can
[04:01] <Elijah> scunizi: All they have is an upgrade disk and the OS boot drive just failed big time (loud noises), can't even buy Pro anymore can you?
[04:02] <scunizi> no
[04:02] <_2> roxan well good habit would be use as little force as you can to kill things, so they can clean up after themselves
[04:02] <Elijah> scunizi: I did not know pro and 2000 didnt need activation in a VM though! Thank
[04:02] <Corelogik> Elijah , http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2571830&Sku=M17-7503&SRCCODE=WEBGOOSOFT&cm_mmc_o=7BBTkwCjC-p8ByplCjCabTwyKbywgfCjCmH4
[04:03] <roxan> _2, well instead of saying do killall then again do killall -2 then angain dillall -10 then again killall -15 then finally killall -9 is better than to say do killall -9 atleast in irc
[04:04] <_2> roxan i mean while it's true that   sudo kill -9 -1   will indeed. close a stuck terminal.   it is usually far more than you need.     but i'll not debate it here.
[04:04] <roxan> _2, i agree with you.
[04:04] <theJKH> Hey guys i got WINE and i reinstalled Counter Strike Source now twice! and everytime i join a gam or make one i get the error
[04:04] <Elijah> Corelogik: thanks a bunch
[04:04] <Decepticon> !release
[04:04] <babaklinux> _2: I have a folder on my desktop to the name of sky and now I'm here baber@baber-desktop:~/Desktop$  but when I type this command dd if=/sky of=/dev/fd0  this error appear dd: opening `/sky': No such file or directory
[04:05] <theJKH> Serevr is enforceing consistancy for this file
[04:05] <theJKH> models/player/t_artic
[04:05] <roxan> babaklinux, that path would be ~/Desktop/sky
[04:05] <scunizi> Elijah, that is win2kpro
[04:06] <_2> babaklinux there is no /sky on your system.    think about it.    (path is the answer)
[04:06] <Corelogik> Elijah , you're welcome
[04:07] <babaklinux> roxan: now I'm here  baber@baber-desktop:~/Desktop/sky$  but that error appear dd: opening `/sky': No such file or directory
[04:07] <sleven> is Ctrl-d bad close? like in python it has quit(), is that better or it doesnt matter?
[04:07] <_2> babaklinux   example.   ls / | grep sky      and also.  ls ./ | grep sky
[04:07] <_2> babaklinux incorrect path.
[04:08] <_2> babaklinux path is the answer.    you are telling it not to look in /home/baber/Desktop/   but rather in /    they are not the same.
[04:09] <_2> babaklinux also you don't use dd on directories.
[04:09] <_2> fundamental error there also.
[04:10] <Bit_Breaker>  No suitable module for running kernel found. For Virtualbox-ose on ubuntu 8.10 2.6-24
[04:10] <Bit_Breaker> can someone help
[04:10] <Bit_Breaker> or is it a bug?
[04:10] <LL> I'm scanning in a bunch of old photos into F-Spot, but F-Spot change date doesn't actually save it to the file, so if I copy the pictures over to another computer the date is wrong... how can I physically change the date of these files, so that they appear in the right timeline?
[04:10] <_2> Bit_Breaker maybe ask in #ubuntu+1
[04:11] <scunizi> Bit_Breaker, open synaptic package manager and search for virtualbox.. you'll see the guest kernel mods there.. pick the one that matches your kernel (highest number) and install
[04:12] <Bit_Breaker> ahh. thank you scunizi
[04:12] <scunizi> LL  google a program called Mapivi.. much better manipulation of exif data and dates and such
[04:12] <scunizi> Bit_Breaker, np
[04:12] <madwho> anybody could help me to set keyboard layouts ??
[04:13] <madwho> in xubuntu 8.10
[04:13] <madwho> tryed dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
[04:13] <n8tuser1> madwho-> ask in #ubuntu+1
[04:13] <madwho> ok thnx
[04:13] <baby-d> hey i need help....what is the lost and found folder for?
[04:14] <_2> madwho i thought it was console-data ?
[04:14] <babaklinux> _2: now what do I have to do? I  have to copy iir_btld.img on flopy disk but it can not work
[04:14] <sleven> rm nevers asks if i really want to delete a file. is it permanently lost if i erase a file by mistake?
[04:14] <Bit_Breaker> scunizi i386 vs generic? arent they the same?
[04:14] <scunizi> sleven, yep
[04:14] <Bit_Breaker> please xplain
[04:14] <baby-d> any one know what the lost and found folder is?
[04:14] <Elijah> scunizi: What is the shred program for then?
[04:15] <scunizi> Bit_Breaker, your kernel will be listed as either generic or i386.. basically the same but the two files have to match
[04:15] <scunizi> Elijah, shred?  or shared?
[04:15] <Bit_Breaker> ok i do uname -r but dont see difference
[04:15] <_2> babaklinux cd ;find . -iname iir_btld.img -exec dd if='{}' of=/dev/fd0 \;
[04:15] <Bit_Breaker> oops it generic
[04:15] <LL> scunizi, thanks I'll give it a shot
[04:15] <Bit_Breaker> sry
[04:15] <Elijah> scunizi: Isn't there a shred or tear or something like program?
[04:16] <_2> babaklinux you may need sudo also... i'll repost with sudo
[04:16] <_2> babaklinux cd ;find . -iname iir_btld.img -exec sudo dd if='{}' of=/dev/fd0 \;
[04:16] <scunizi> Elijah, for erasing things on the HD?
[04:16] <Elijah> in the cli? Yes to erase
[04:16] <qbmaniac> guys
[04:16] <n8tuser1> Elijah-> yes there is shred, but you may have to install it if you dont have it
[04:17] <Randall> k, so upon startup "Starting Winbind daemon" fails how do i fix this?
[04:17] <qbmaniac> I just got a dell laptop with ubuntu, and it doesn't detect my wireless... it was working great yesterday, today right now it dissappeared... like if i had no card... anyone had this issue?
[04:17] <scunizi> Elijah, yea there are.. milspec in fact. overwrites with 0's 3+ times to insure .. but for the life of me I can't remember the name
[04:17] <Randall> also, how do i check my system for errors?
[04:17] <Elijah> So what is Shred for if RM is there?
[04:17] <SegFaultAX> shred is a data destroyer
[04:17] <n8tuser1> Elijah-> man shred please
[04:17] <scunizi> Elijah, I have no idea.. never used it
[04:17] <Elijah> It must mean the data can still be recovered if a RM command is used
[04:17] <_2> shred is in coreutils
[04:18] <scunizi> Elijah, could be
[04:18] <Flannel> !undelete
[04:18] <Flannel> but yes, use shred.
[04:18] <Randall> k, so upon startup "Starting Winbind daemon" fails how do i fix this? also how do i check my system for errors?
[04:18] <SegFaultAX> when you delete a file, the clusters it occupies are simply marked as free, but the data remains until the space is allocated to something else
[04:18] <Elijah> Very nice!
[04:19] <pureworld> Hello, there.
[04:19] <Elijah> That is exactly the link I was looking for Flannel
[04:19] <SegFaultAX> shred destroys the data by zeroing out the space it occupied, or filling it with other data
[04:19] <scunizi> Elijah, don't forget ~/.thumbnails  pics of most everything
[04:19] <pureworld> Could anyone help out?
[04:19] <Corelogik> Is 8.04 still lacking in support for ATI cards?
[04:19] <scunizi> !ask | pureworld
[04:19] <Elijah> So sleven, there is still hope if you stop using your disk shortly after the RM comman was used!
[04:20] <pureworld> I recently installed Hardy on my desktop of Quad Core 6600.
[04:20] <scunizi> pureworld, congrats
[04:20] <Bit_Breaker> ok
[04:20] <Bit_Breaker> im back
[04:20] <Bit_Breaker> thanx scunizi
[04:20] <scunizi> Bit_Breaker, np :-)
[04:21] <pureworld> When I see the cpu usage( like top) the cpu usage doesn't goes to full when I load bunch of programs.
[04:21] <pureworld> thanks
[04:21] <scunizi> pureworld, must be working nicely
[04:21] <sleven> is there a rm-command that asks for confirmation before deleting?
[04:21] <Bit_Breaker> how do i remove unwanted versions from my menu.lst?
[04:21] <pureworld> Is there any thing that i have to tune for mutiple core cpu?
[04:21] <sleven> or can i set it to?
[04:21] <SegFaultAX> sleven: man rm
[04:21] <Randall> k, so upon startup "Starting Winbind daemon" fails how do i fix this? also how do i check my system for errors?
[04:21] <SegFaultAX> sleven: but generally the -i option
[04:22] <pixelated> Bit_Breaker, use a text editor
[04:22] <Bit_Breaker> ok
[04:22] <n8tuser1> sleven-> put a symlink  for rm to rm -i
[04:22] <_2> alias
[04:23] <_2> you can't symlink an option.  but you can alias them
[04:23] <n8tuser1> sleven-> rather an alias
[04:23] <Randall> how do i check my system for errors?
[04:23] <r00t_> How do i fix this? W: Failed to fetch http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/ubuntu/dists/feisty/screenlets/binary-i386/Packages.gz  404 Not Found
[04:23] <scunizi> Bit_Breaker, you talking about older kernels?  uninstall them from synaptic  .. if you simply edit menu.lst then the drive space isn't freed
[04:23] <SegFaultAX> Randall: what type of errors?
[04:23] <Bit_Breaker> where do i make the changes ?
[04:23] <TiMiDo> r00t_, the error is pretty clear.
[04:23] <TiMiDo> the url must be down. or something r00t_
[04:23] <pixelated> Randall, man fsck
[04:23] <Bit_Breaker> cd vcs
[04:24] <sleven> Elijah: what is the disk in this scenario? my harddrive?
[04:24] <trumpetmic> anyone know how to fix ati video flicker?  I searched the forums and couldn't find anything that worked
[04:24] <_2> Bit_Breaker grub menu ?
[04:24] <SegFaultAX> pixelated: for filesystem inconsistencies only
[04:24] <Randall> SegFaultAX: well errors in general...but particularly why winbind daemon dinblind fails on startup and why my driver for my video card won't work
[04:24] <Bit_Breaker> yea
[04:24] <babaklinux> _2: excuse me what do this command ?   cd ;find . -iname iir_btld.img -exec sudo dd if='{}' of=/dev/fd0 \;
[04:24] <Bit_Breaker> yes
[04:24] <nick_> hey all I want to create my own web sit but what opensource program can I use and were is some good info on someone to learn?
[04:24] <_2> Bit_Breaker removing the extra kernels  should remove their entries in "/boot/grub/menu.lst" also
[04:25] <_2> Bit_Breaker use the packagemanager
[04:25] <SegFaultAX> nick_: this is not the channel for that, try #django
[04:25] <nick_> ok thanks
[04:25] <sleven> symlink?
[04:25] <SegFaultAX> sleven: symbolic link
[04:25] <trumpetmic> is ubuntu known for having issues with ati?
[04:25] <Randall> SegFaultAX: well errors in general...but particularly why winbind daemon dinblind fails on startup and why my driver for my video card won't work
[04:26] <babaklinux> _2: I confused I don't know what to do for solve this problem?
[04:26] <Bit_Breaker> thanx 2
[04:26] <scunizi> trumpetmic, all things linux have issues with ati
[04:26] <trumpetmic> scunizi: disappointing... so nvidia is the way eh?
[04:27] <scunizi> trumpetmic, yep
[04:27] <trumpetmic> anyone know where to find a good deal on a pcie nv card?
[04:27] <baby-d> if my comp fails to start up right away and it takes it two to three times to load up is it the partition or the computer?
[04:27]  * trumpetmic hops on denver craigslist
[04:27] <SegFaultAX> trumpetmic: newegg.com
[04:27] <_2> babaklinux did you run the command ?
[04:27] <trumpetmic> thanks SegFaultAX
[04:27] <scunizi> trumpetmic, tigerdirect
[04:27] <trumpetmic> thanks scunizi
[04:28] <Corelogik> tigerdirect or newegg has good deals.
[04:28] <babaklinux> _2: this command ?   cd ;find . -iname iir_btld.img -exec sudo dd if='{}' of=/dev/fd0 \;
[04:28] <SegFaultAX> baby-d: sounds like hardware failure
[04:28] <baby-d> ok
[04:28] <_2> babaklinux yes that command
[04:28] <baby-d> thanks
[04:28] <Randall> SegFaultAX: well errors in general...but particularly why winbind daemon dinblind fails on startup and why my driver for my video card won't work
[04:28] <baby-d> im new to running my own comp and this linnux stuff
[04:28] <babaklinux> _2: yes not error and go here root@baber-desktop:~#
[04:28] <baby-d> thanks SegFaulttax
[04:29] <baby-d> so is that why this lost and found folder appeared?
[04:29] <trumpetmic> \\\\
[04:29] <Bit_Breaker> do i have to change menu,lst as well?
[04:29] <_2> babaklinux </blinks>   surely you jest ?       type exit, and try it without the sudo.
[04:30] <scunizi> Bit_Breaker, no
[04:30] <SegFaultAX> Bit_Breaker: its always good to keep your grub menu in good order so you dont attempt to load a kernel that isnt installed
[04:30] <Bit_Breaker> ok
[04:30] <Randall> how do i check for general errors on my system (not files)
[04:31] <scunizi> SegFaultAX, if Bit_Breaker uninstalls unneeded kernels grub will automatically be updated to reflect that
[04:31] <_2> Randall read the log file
[04:31] <Bit_Breaker> ahh i see
[04:31] <Bit_Breaker> this is absolutely cool
[04:31] <Bit_Breaker> im never using window again
[04:32] <Randall> _2: I don't really understand it and i'm trying to fix certain problems
[04:32] <SegFaultAX> scunizi: depends on how grub is configured, but in general, yes
[04:32] <Bit_Breaker> lol.. i like this freedom .. its overwelming
[04:32] <Bit_Breaker> < using ubuntu for 1 year now
[04:32] <RyanPrior> Bit_Breaker: But You Haven't Seen How Great Windows 7 Is Going To Be.  !!!.
[04:32] <_2> Randall what problems?  and is the on hardy or intreped ?
[04:32] <Bit_Breaker> really?
[04:32] <Bit_Breaker> it doesnt matter
[04:33] <Bit_Breaker> ill wait and see .. were u being sarcastic?
[04:33] <Guest64811> i have wubi, is there a way to make my wubi a full install of Ubuntu and make it my main OS
[04:33] <Freelancer86> small question, has anyone tried the new live usb creator app in 8.10?
[04:33] <SegFaultAX> RyanPrior: ironically windows 7 is being developed by unix junkies
[04:33] <n8tuser1> Freelancer86->  ask in #ubuntu+1
[04:33] <Bit_Breaker> lol@ Unix junkies
[04:33] <pixelated> maybe it will work?
[04:33] <Randall> _2: It's on hardy (1) starting winblind daemon winblind fails on startup (2) driver for video card doesn't work
[04:34] <RyanPrior> SegFaultAX: ironically the whole NT kernel was developed by unix junkies. But, if you wanna discuss it, love to take you to #ubuntu-offtopic or ##windows
[04:34] <babaklinux> _2: without sudo this message appear  http://www.binpaste.com/v.php?id=edidr
[04:34] <Guest64811> can i make the wubi install my main OS?
[04:35] <Randall> _2: It's on hardy (1) starting winblind daemon winblind fails on startup (2) driver for video card doesn't work
[04:35] <_2> Randall set the startup script for win<whatever> to verbose and have it log the output to a file.   as per the vidio chip/module  that's out of my realm
[04:35] <Bit_Breaker> uhh.. ok  Could not find VirtualBox installation. Please reinstall.
[04:35] <Bit_Breaker> but wait theres more
[04:35] <Bit_Breaker> virtualbox-ose is already the newest version
[04:35] <Bit_Breaker> Confused?
[04:36] <Randall> Does anyone here know how to get a Nvidia Geforce4: MX 420 working on hardy heron
[04:36] <Bit_Breaker> an error on my part i believ
[04:36] <Bit_Breaker> wow i had trouble with that card earlier today
[04:36] <Bit_Breaker> on windows however
[04:36] <Bit_Breaker> u have a Dell 8200?
[04:36] <_2> babaklinux i get nothing from that url.   http://www.binpaste.com/v.php?id=edidr   contains nothing a can read.
[04:37] <geremy> Hola all, still looking for help with the intel 945's tv out capability- any assistence would be much appreciated
[04:37] <Bit_Breaker> i would enable restricted drivers >> System>Hardware Drivers
[04:38] <Guest64811> Can i make Wubi bigger?
[04:38] <babaklinux> _2:  can you see this ?  http://www.binpaste.com/v.php?id=edidr
[04:38] <Guest64811> i have a wubi install, can i do more with it?
[04:38] <_2> babaklinux no it's the same page.
[04:38] <sp00n> Hi, I don't know where I should ask or go for information for this, but I went to install a program that depends on qt4 and I wasn't sure what package from the repos that would be, so I downloaded the source from sourceforge & I'm compiling it myself but it's been about six hours...should it be taking that long or do I have bad options set for gcc or something?
[04:38] <trumpetmic> does anyone know of a way to stop ati video flicker?
[04:39] <_2> babaklinux what i mean is i get the page   but there is no "paste" on it.   nothing to read.
[04:39] <Randall> Does anyone here know how to get a Nvidia Geforce4: MX 420 working on hardy heron

[04:40] <_2> babaklinux  ok.  you have copied the file to the floppy disk.
[04:41] <_2> babaklinux that is normal output for dd
[04:41] <flishlee> hi
[04:41] <RyanPrior> !hi | flishlee
[04:41] <Bit_Breaker> how can i use netcat an dd to backup my Ubuntu box
[04:41] <Randall> Bit_Breaker: when i do that and restart it says it needs to load in "low-res mode" and messes my resolution up
[04:41] <xcerca> where can i find new panel applets ?
[04:41] <babaklinux> _2:  but when I openn floppy disk there is  no file in it
[04:41] <chetnick> i saw the new version of vlc player on windows, it looks much better than old one. How can i try to update my vlc on ubuntu?
[04:42] <_2> babaklinux one other thing to remember.   generally speaking, in linux "no error message" means "no error occured"
[04:42] <Bit_Breaker> hmm..
[04:42] <_2> babaklinux i can't help what was in the .img file.   but you did copy it to the disk.
