[12:26] <shampoonator> no got
[12:26] <shampoonator> just installed the whole kubuntu
[12:27] <got> did you do the oem install?
[12:28] <shampoonator> yes
[12:28] <got> did you run oem-config-prepare yet?
[12:29] <duckdown> Hi all, have an SSH question.  I am establishing a SOCKS tunnel to a host by doing 'ssh -D1234 shellcompany.com' then I can use localhost:1234 as a SOCKS proxy for browsing, however, other computers on my network can't connect to that port.  In PuTTY theres an option to make it accept connections from the outside, how do I do that in manual ssh syntax?
[12:29] <geert_> How can i put a different KDE program on my compu and do not lose the for instance i go from kubuntu edge 6.10 to kubuntu 6.6 or even to decibel latest version?
[12:30] <geert_> lose the content of what i have already got on my stystem now.
[12:30] <premier_> Im having trouble hibernating my computer
[12:30] <geert_> I mean NOT LOSE! sorry
[12:32] <lontra> man basket notes is cool
[12:32] <premier_> it complains that its not able to find the swap device.  My help told me to look at a file called /etc/fstab, and there was something about filesystem labels, but Im not very advanced so I dont know what was going on
[12:32] <got> shampoonator  i did the oem install once and you have to do sudo oem-config-prepare
[12:32] <shampoonator> mmh k
[12:32] <shampoonator> i'll try
[12:32] <shampoonator> thx
[12:33] <got> when you login are you oem?
[12:34] <ubuntu> hi
[12:34] <got> hey
[12:34] <ubuntu> i have a problem with my new harddrive
[12:34] <got> ok
[12:34] <ubuntu> i plugged it in, started with the cd and formated in in ext3
[12:34] <ubuntu> so far so good
[12:35] <ubuntu> but now the kernel won t load
[12:35] <ubuntu> it says root is on hdb
[12:35] <premier_> uh oh
[12:35] <slyfox> Why can
[12:35] <slyfox> Why can't I copy and paste from Konqueror ?
[12:35] <premier_> slyfox: what are you trying to do?
[12:35] <makuseru> how can i change the default audio track on a .mkv video
[12:35] <ubuntu> got: do you know, whats wrong?
[12:36] <got> you completely installed it then rebooted and it said kernel wont load?
[12:36] <ubuntu> i cant say, if its completelz installed
[12:36] <ubuntu> i formated it in ext3
[12:36] <ubuntu> :)
[12:36] <slyfox> premier_: simply ctr+c or mouse right click copy it and paste it, all aplicaitons do that, but it does not work if I do this from konqueror, it does not paste if I get soemthing form konqueror
[12:36] <got> did you set up partitions or did you shoose to use the whole drive?
[12:36] <ubuntu> whole drive
[12:37] <ubuntu> its jumpered to slave
[12:37] <got> whats it doing now
[12:37] <premier_> slyfox: what are you trying to copy and paste?
[12:37] <slyfox> premier_: any text
[12:37] <ubuntu> i started kubuntu with the cd
[12:37] <geert_> Why is there no ditionairy if i am writing on a website. Than it is so muth more difficult to write correct, it takes so long if i have to look in my ditionairy!
[12:37] <ubuntu> even if i unplug the harddrive now, kubuntu wont boot
[12:37] <got> after you rebooted?
[12:37] <premier_> slyfox: text from where?  the location bar?
[12:37] <ubuntu> thinks the root is on the  other harddrive
[12:38] <got> oh i see
[12:38] <slyfox> premier_: a web site
[12:38] <geert_> If it will not bood look at your GRUB.
[12:38] <ubuntu> do you know any solution?
[12:38] <got> what geert said would be my forst choice
[12:38] <slyfox> premier_: I restarted it and now it works
[12:38] <geert_> Maybe who nows?
[12:39] <makuseru> how can i change the default audio track on a .mkv video
[12:39] <slyfox> premier_: do u use firefox or Konqueror ?
[12:39] <premier_> firefox
[12:39] <got> i would just try to reinstall
[12:39] <premier_> I cant reproduce your problem, so I have no idea
[12:39] <premier_> Im having trouble hibernating my computer
[12:39] <got> if you dont ahve anything important on there
[12:39] <geert_> Just what you like that is what i now
[12:39] <ubuntu> ye, i played with that solution
[12:39] <premier_> it complains that its not able to find the swap device.  My help told me to look at a file called /etc/fstab, and there was something about filesystem labels, but Im not very advanced so I dont know what was going on
[12:39] <slyfox> premier_: why do you prefer ff over konqueror ?
[12:39] <ubuntu> but it thought there would be an easier one
[12:39] <asher> hey
[12:39] <ubuntu> no, its quite a fresh install
[12:40] <ubuntu> thanks anyway :)
[12:40] <premier_> slyfox: extensions, and also I got some things working in ff and I dont want to take the time to fix it
[12:40] <got> yup if you do reinstall, make sure that the other hd is set to cable select
[12:40] <premier_> slyfox: but Ive heard people say that konqueror is better
[12:40] <niles> where to go to change keystrokes to toggle between different workspaces?
[12:40] <niles> with in the pager that is.
[12:40] <geert_> FF is looking better and it has a Flash plyer bild in!
[12:40] <ubuntu> got it
[12:40] <dx11101> how do you get a 3d gui?
[12:40] <ubuntu> cya then :)
[12:40] <premier_> geert_: since when?
[12:40] <slyfox> premier_: "I got some things working in ff " they do not work in Konqueror ?
[12:41] <slyfox> premier_: what do you use for notes, calendar and email ?
[12:41] <got> im sorry ubuntu, if ones master, the other should be slave, or you can set them both to CS
[12:41] <ubuntu> damn
[12:41] <got> what
[12:41] <premier_> slyfox: gmail for email.  I dont use a calendar; I use kwrite for notes
[12:42] <ubuntu> im so used to windows
[12:42] <got> ubuntu
That is the case with me but do not ask me how
[12:42] <got> im sorry ubuntu, if ones master, the other should be slave, or you can set them both to CS
[12:42] <bxnp> slyfox: you could allso use basket for notes which is very nice
[12:42] <ubuntu> i can easilz stay here :)
[12:42] <ubuntu> no, thats quite ok with me
[12:42] <slyfox> bxnp: just isntalled version 1 will try it out
[12:42] <premier_> geert_: jezz, I want your repositorys
[12:42] <slyfox> premier_: why not Kmail with gmail ?
[12:43] <premier_> any, does anyone here have any suggestions on how to get my computer to hibernate?
[12:43] <premier_> slyfox: havent tried it
[12:43] <got> premier did you configure your own kernel
[12:43] <got> premier, theres also a setting in your bios for it
[12:43] <premier_> got: no, its kubuntu 6.10, installed from the live cd
 you must have two posibilities So two masters and two slaves.
[12:44] <premier_> got: well, that shouldnt be the problem.  see, when I try to hibernate, heres what happens:
[12:44] <got> geert, on one ide cable one is set to master the other slave
[12:45] <premier_> got: if I have usb devices plugged in, they stop the process and I get delivered back to my desktop, no hibernate
[12:45] <compilerwriter> anyone know if Kontakt has keyboard shortcuts to switch between folders?
 you put you dvd or cdrom in the slave and the hard drives in master.
[12:45] <got> premier i think its in your bios but im not for sure, you may have wake up events misconfiguress
[12:46] <niles> how do i change keystrokes to toggle between different workspaces?
[12:46] <ubuntu> am i able to change the moint-point later on_
[12:46] <ubuntu> :
[12:46] <makuseru> how can i change the default audio track on a .mkv video
[12:46] <got> geert i agree, but no time should you have two devices on one cable se to the same thing unless its cable select
[12:46] <premier_> got: or, If no usb devices, same thing, but it says something about "cannot find swap device.  try swapon -a"
[12:47] <geert_> Slave/ master is in away one channel whit a switch so iit will work faster if the have there one channel;.
[12:48] <got> im not sure premier, but the first place you should start is in your bios, make sure those setting are correct and go from there, i just installed today and hibernate works perfect
[12:48] <niles> there is no Kontrol center.  wtf
[12:48] <premier_> got, okay fine.  brb
[12:48] <SolidSource> niles: there is..just have to add the menu item yourself
[12:48] <jarn> cp should have a progress bar.
[12:48] <SolidSource> niles: the command is merely "kcontrol"
[12:48] <got> master/slave selects the location devices are connected to the ide cable
[12:49] <igorjr> got: am i able to select the mount-points without reinstalling?
[12:49] <got> if one is master, the other has to be slave
[12:49] <geert_> And most compu`s have two ide drivers.
[12:50] <geert_> And today also a read driver
[12:50] <got> right, ide 0 and ide 1, and on each of those a ide cable is attatched
[12:50] <got> on the cable there are two slots
[12:50] <niles> SolidSource: thanx
[12:51] <got> one master or one slave, cable select lets bios which one is master/slave
[12:51] <dx11101> never use cable select
[12:51] <BluesKaj> in most IDE cases the master/slave drive jumpers have to be connected correctly ...sometimes ppl forget
[12:51] <niles> this is stuipid.  toggleing from workspace to workspace,  provides a list with the differnt desktops out of order
[12:51] <niles> useless.
[12:51] <got> igorjr what problem are you having?
[12:52] <igorjr> im ubuntu
[12:52] <igorjr> ;)
[12:52] <geert_> But to set them write it is a hardware job not a bios thing
[12:52] <niles> ahh i got it
[12:52] <igorjr> got: i was wondering if i could change the mount-points of the partitions manually without reinstalling the whole os
[12:52] <niles> i had to select "list"
[12:52] <BluesKaj> yeah geert_ , but it's still important , otherwise the BIOS settings won't work
[12:53] <dx11101> fstab.list?
[12:53] <got> if you set both devices on one ide cable bios determines the master and slave, thats what cable select is for
[12:53] <geert_> I do not have a good experiance whis cable select.
[12:53] <dx11101> the problem with cable select is sometimes it doesnt work right
[12:53] <asher> does anyone here use a toshiba p105?
[12:53] <crackhead> question: does anyone know of an open source secure collaborative internet meeting application/environment?
[12:53] <geert_> Right!
[12:53] <crackhead> like netmeeting, webex, etc, but opensource
[12:54] <got> that is tru
[12:54] <got> but you don not set both devices to master
[12:54] <got> and  you don not set both devices to slave
[12:55] <igorjr> if you don't jumper the harddrives and put one one the primary and one on the secondary and choose cable select
[12:55] <geert_>  Jou do if you get them on a different ide driver i did it to and it wors oke
[12:55] <igorjr> we'll, do the math
[12:55] <dx11101> im sorry but drivers have nothing to do with it
[12:55] <igorjr> but even though it's easier to just jumper them right and put them wherever u want them most
[12:55] <igorjr> oh, well
[12:56] <got> lol
[12:56] <dx11101> dont use cable select and you will be OKAY
[12:57] <got> if you set them both to master on one ide drive you will not ba ok
[12:57] <igorjr> sorry, i totally appreciate your help, never mind ;)
[12:57] <dx11101> ohh really
[12:57] <dx11101> i thought we have this figured out 20 years ago
[12:58] <got> well theta what geert has been aguing with me about
[12:58] <premier_> got:  looked through the entire bios menu, and I couldnt find anything
[12:58] <got> im not sure then premier
[12:58] <dx11101> if your having problems it means something broken or the jumpers are WRONG
[12:59] <got> i was just trying to point out that they should not be set to the same thing
[12:59] <got> unless it cable select
[12:59] <BluesKaj> the jumper settings are easily found on the net or on the drive itself
[01:00] <dx11101> i would never recommend someone use cable select
[01:01] <dx11101> if it works for you then yay but i have seen to many issues with drives getting detected at startup
[01:02] <dx11101> is that guy still here asking about webcam conferencing?
[01:04] <bxnp> anybody know's what to do with a .idx file or a .sub file

[01:06] <jarn> SpAwN: Eh, not too worried about it. And it's not that likely, is it?
[01:06] <jarn> SpAwN: What program is best for that?
[01:06] <SpAwN> jarn, maby check out umm ...one sec let me get the names theres 2 programs ...ones like qtparted
[01:07] <jarn> SpAwN: Thanks.
[01:07] <SpAwN> jarn, qtparted and gparted i do belive
[01:07] <jarn> SpAwN: What's the difference? One's QT based and ones GTK based?
[01:07] <BenPA> hi all ... I need help ... after envoking some wine applications in Ubuntu 6.06 using KDE ... my icons disappear and it seems my desktop locks ... any clues?
[01:07] <HymnToLife> jarn, yes
[01:08] <SpAwN> jarn, i would think so.
[01:08] <HymnToLife> and gparted is - imo - much better
[01:08] <jarn> Oh? They're not the same?
[01:08] <SpAwN> jarn, i havent used either to much...so just be carefull and pay attention ;-)
[01:08] <jarn> SpAwN: Will do.

[01:10] <hvarma> or any other IDE with good code completion/Intellisense
[01:10] <BenPA> hi all ... I need help ... after envoking some wine applications in Ubuntu 6.06 using KDE ... my icons disappear and it seems my desktop locks ... any clues?
[01:12] <HymnToLife> jarn, it displays in GiB here...

[01:15] <BenPA> hi all ... I need help ... after envoking some wine applications in Ubuntu 6.06 using KDE ... my icons disappear and it seems my desktop locks ... any clues?
[01:17] <nixternal> BenPA: if nobody here can answer your Wine question, you can also try #winehq if it is related
[01:18] <dx11101> ebay is soo addicting
[01:19] <BenPA> my question is why are my desktop icons disappearing ... it may not be wine
[01:20] <BenPA> it seems my desktop may be crashing ...
[01:21] <dx11101> BenPA, are you fully updated or did you recently update?
[01:21] <BenPA> I recently updated
[01:21] <mrbrdo> i just burned a dvd
[01:21] <mrbrdo> and i can't see it
[01:21] <mrbrdo> in fact i can't see any of my cds
[01:21] <mrbrdo>  /media/cdrom0 is just empty all the time
[01:22] <dx11101> probably need to dismount remount
[01:22] <mrbrdo> i tried, nothing happens
[01:22] <BenPA> it seems the problem started happening after I tried to get some missing java items that were/are missing
[01:22] <mrbrdo> with umount and mount /media/cdrom0
[01:22] <dx11101> yeah but your not putting a device
[01:23] <mrbrdo> ?
[01:23] <dx11101> just the mountpoint
[01:23] <mrbrdo> it's in fstab?
[01:23] <dx11101> check it
[01:23] <luigi_> salve
[01:23] <mrbrdo>  /dev/hda        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0      0
[01:23] <SolidSource> anyone using guarddog? cause configured it and now I can't access the internet, but I can access my samba from my laptop
[01:23] <dx11101> you should enable automounting for you cdrom
[01:23] <mrbrdo> where
[01:24] <dx11101> okay
[01:24] <dx11101> in KDE
[01:24] <dx11101> get to system settings
[01:24] <mrbrdo> yeah
[01:24] <dx11101> then advanced
[01:24] <dx11101> at the top
[01:24] <dx11101> the disk and filesystems
[01:24] <dx11101> then*
[01:24] <mrbrdo> okay
[01:24] <dx11101> click on Optical Disc
[01:25] <bonbonthejon> !enter
[01:25] <mrbrdo> ok
[01:25] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:25] <dx11101> Modify
[01:25] <dx11101> then enable at startup
[01:25] <BenPA> dx11101 ... it seems the problem started happening after I tried to get some missing java items that were/are missing
[01:25] <mrbrdo> dx11101: well that wouldn't solve anything
[01:25] <mrbrdo> dx11101: that just mounts on system startup
[01:26] <mrbrdo> dx11101: how does that help?
[01:27] <mrbrdo> it does say disabled though
[01:27] <mrbrdo> and i can't enable it

[01:33] <jake_> hi guys, im a new linux user please help, how to change the themes?
[01:33] <tarnold> slyfox: would you happen to know what i did wrong?
[01:33] <slyfox> tarnold: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_add_extra_repositories
[01:34] <intelikey> anyone know the format for /etc/timezone    is it utc+2  utc-5  and so on ?
[01:34] <slyfox> tarnold: you have to enable repositores first
[01:34] <SolidSource> slyfox: source-o-matic is better
[01:34] <tarnold> oh
[01:34] <tarnold> ok
[01:34] <intelikey> !source-o-matic
[01:34] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[01:35] <jake_> anyone?
[01:35] <tarnold> hey what is in the little boxes...do i paste it into my command line?
[01:37] <tarnold> hey do i past the 2 commands into in the box into my command line?
[01:37] <Admiral_Chicago> shift + insert
[01:37] <cjbloom> what command do i use to install ubunutu via command line?
[01:38] <CVirus> cjbloom: there is no such thing ... you can't install ubuntu from command line
[01:38] <SolidSource> tarnold:  to overwrite your old sources.list..in konsole do "kdesu kate /etc/apt/soruces.list" copy from new file over that, then save
[01:38] <cjbloom> under kubunutu
[01:38] <SolidSource> tarnold: then run "sudo apt-get update"
[01:39] <CVirus> cjbloom: ahh ... install the ubuntu-desktop package
[01:39] <intelikey> cjbloom you have to use the alternate install CD for a cli based install  or else be very good at hacking linux.
[01:39] <tarnold> hey i went into my sources list, uncommented the lines and hit save and it said  that i can't save it: not possible to write to file:///etc/apt/sources.list
[01:40] <SolidSource> tarnold: thats because you don't have permission...need to kdesu/sudo it
[01:40] <tarnold> solid source: so how do i run kate as kdesu/sudo then?
[01:40] <BenPA> can anyone tell me why I am getting this error when I try to upgrade .... Errors were encountered while processing:
[01:40] <BenPA>  emacs21
[01:40] <BenPA>  cedet-common
[01:40] <BenPA>  eieio
[01:40] <BenPA>  speedbar
[01:41] <SolidSource> tarnold: just go to http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/, select your system, check all the boxes, generate list
[01:41] <SolidSource> tarnold:  then to overwrite your old sources.list..in konsole do "kdesu kate /etc/apt/soruces.list" copy from new file over that, then save, then run "kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list"
[01:41] <intelikey> SolidSource "check all the boxes" ?   is that sound advice ?
[01:42] <tarnold> huh
[01:42] <SolidSource> intelikey: its fine all it does is make the source packages available
[01:42] <tarnold> ok i think i get this sources generator
[01:43] <flight> Hello all!
[01:43] <tarnold> ok, don't see anything labeled restricted, or multiverse or anything
[01:43] <intelikey> SolidSource no.  there are boxes for snapshots wine blah blah blah...  not just source packages.
[01:44] <SolidSource> intelikey: so, thats not going to cause any problems
[01:44] <flight> does anyone know what command line options wine supports?
[01:44] <intelikey> !worksforme | SolidSource
[01:44] <ubotu> SolidSource: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[01:44] <tarnold> solidsource: i don't see anything labeled restricted or multiverse
[01:45] <SolidSource> tarnold: they will be given
[01:45] <intelikey> flight i would suspect not.    man wine
[01:45] <tarnold> solidsource: http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/  i don't see anything labeled restricted or multiverse or anything am i looking in the wrong place then?
[01:45] <flight> tried the man pages on it, it's not in there... but it does reference command line options...
[01:46] <flight> just doesn't say what they are
[01:46] <SolidSource> intelikey: having it in sources.list will cause no problems.....just take longer to check for updates
[01:46] <SolidSource> tarnold: it doesn't say "restricted" but it will be in the list
[01:46] <tarnold> ok, then what does it say- since i can't find it
[01:46] <intelikey> flight winehq.org  ?
[01:47] <tarnold> and wouldn't it be easier tojust go into /etc/apt/sources.list?
[01:47] <Jucato> flight: #winehq as well
[01:47] <flight> i'm there right now
[01:47] <SolidSource> tarnold: thats how you get into it...
[01:47] <tarnold> yes
[01:47] <jarn> How do I resize my Linux partition? I don't think I can do it in Linux... ;)_
[01:47] <tarnold> but how do i run it as sudo or kdesu?
[01:47] <intelikey> SolidSource again i disagree with you, but you seem to be unanamus about it, so i'll hush.
[01:48] <SolidSource> tarnold: in order to write to it, you need to do "kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list" in konsole
[01:48] <flight> thanks all!
[01:48] <tarnold> cos when i tried to save it it said the file couldn't be written to
[01:48] <tarnold> oh
[01:49] <SolidSource> tarnold" just copy and paste whats in the quotes into konsole
[01:49] <tyler__> hey
[01:49] <intelikey> anyone know the format for /etc/timezone    is it utc+2  utc-5  and so on ?

[01:51] <BenPA> sorry
[01:52] <epimeth> hello again amigos!
[01:52] <epimeth> quick question... how do I get nonstandard resultions for x?
[01:52] <epimeth> I've got a dell laptop with a nifty wide screen
[01:52] <epimeth> it seems a bit streched
[01:52] <BenPA> why am I getting this error when I try to update http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8712/plain/
[01:52] <epimeth> tho I could be wrong
[01:53] <epimeth> so really what I'm asking is... how do I check my resolution?
[01:53] <Admiral_Chicago> epimeth: what kind of driver
[01:56] <epimeth> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[01:56] <epimeth> 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[01:57] <SolidSource> tarnold: here is what your sources.list should be like http://pastebin.sk/en/971/
[01:58] <tarnold> thank you
[01:59] <tarnold> solid source: can i just paste that over my  sources list?
[01:59] <SolidSource> tarnold: yes and take note of the "gpg" commands at the top of the list...you will need to follow those instructions
[02:00] <tarnold> ok
[02:00] <tarnold> and that means? solely if its not working?
[02:00] <intelikey> SolidSource canonical is one of the official "ubuntu" repos.            medibuntu ?
[02:00] <SolidSource> medibuntu is also official
[02:00] <intelikey> k
[02:00] <tarnold> and what does it mean when it says locate the GPG key in file and replace where KEY is?
[02:00] <SolidSource> tarnold: no, you will need to run them
[02:00] <intelikey> has ubuntu.org/ in the url    :)
[02:01] <tarnold> well what does running them mean then?
[02:01] <noesis> hi to all
[02:01] <SolidSource> tarnold: it gets you the access key for the repo...the key is located above each set of repos
[02:01] <noesis> anybody can help me about boot loader plz?
[02:02] <tarnold> solid source: the first one says # GPG key: 437D05B5  what do i do with it?
[02:03] <SolidSource> tarnold: I'll send a pastebin with the commands so can just copy and paste into konsole
[02:03] <epimeth> Admiral_Chicago: can you help?
[02:03] <tarnold> ok
[02:03] <tarnold> thanks
[02:05] <SolidSource> tarnold: http://pastebin.sk/972/
[02:05] <tarnold> solid source: so i replace the sources list with the pastebin file, and then run the commands in the other paste bin?
[02:06] <SolidSource> tarnold: yes...after you save and close the sources.list
[02:06] <tarnold> ok
[02:06] <tarnold> doing that now
[02:07] <tarnold> solidsource: can i litterly coppy from teh past bin?
[02:07] <SolidSource> yes
[02:08] <intelikey> better to copy from the page than to save it as   because the page will have M$ markup  but copy/paste wont keep the M$ markup.
[02:09] <SolidSource> you talkin about the numbers?....cause yeah don't copy those
[02:09] <tarnold> what numbers?
[02:09] <SolidSource> the line numbers
[02:09] <tarnold> oh
[02:10] <tarnold> no i didn't
[02:10] <mkorman> at some point, / and /usr folders appeared on my desktop.  i'm nervous to delete them, because i don't know if they will delete the actual files in these directories.  does anyone know what caused this, and how i get rid of them?
[02:11] <intelikey> SolidSource no M$ markup    wrong line end chars
[02:11] <SolidSource> oh yeah forgot about that happens
[02:11] <SolidSource> but easy to correct
[02:12] <tarnold> hey
[02:12] <tarnold> solidsourcs: im not sure  if it worked or not when i ran sudo aptitude update
[02:12] <intelikey> linux uses   line feed     and M$ uses carrage return + line feed
[02:13] <intelikey> apple uses  carrage return    iirc.
[02:13] <tarnold> solidsources: on the bottom of my console(at teh next input line, it says sometning bout GPG error, http:kubuntu edgy release: the following signatues couldn't be verified
[02:14] <tarnold> so idn't know if any worked
[02:14] <SolidSource> tarnold: that should be ok
[02:14] <marissa> Hey all, I attempted to install some nVidia drivers via Synaptic. I restarted my system, GRUB loads, and I get "Kernel Panic -- not syncing VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown block(0,0)
[02:14] <marissa> any idea what this is?
[02:14] <tarnold> solidsource: i closed my sources list and then ran the two commands in the second pastebin before i ran sudo apititude update
[02:15] <tarnold> ok
[02:15] <SolidSource> tarnold: thats right
[02:15] <tarnold> now im gonna try to get knetwork manager
[02:15] <tarnold> FUCK
[02:15] <fuel> !adeptfix
[02:15] <ubotu> If Adept crashed on you and your database is locked, try this in konsole:  sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a
[02:16] <intelikey> marissa sounds like a faulty "initramfs" image file.    try booting with other kernels if you have any installed.
[02:16] <Errpast1> Anyone have permission issues when running CUPS via web browser, port 631
[02:16] <BluesKaj> !language | tarnold
[02:16] <ubotu> tarnold: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:16] <Errpast1> No matter what user/pw info I provide, error_log shows authentication error
[02:16] <marissa> I don't think I have any others installed. I've read a few things on the error and there's been a few things talking about using a liveCD and "chroot"ing into the partition and fixing things from there
[02:16] <intelikey> Errpast1 yes.   but i'm not help on fixing cups  i still can't print.
[02:16] <SolidSource> so no one uses guarddog and can tell me why it's being a prick and won't any traffic through when the protocols are set to allow?
[02:17] <tarnold> i ran sudo aptitude install knetworkmanager and i get something back saying sudo apt-key add -gpg --export --armor  (bunch of keys)
[02:17] <epimeth> yes!!!!!!!!!! wireless works!!!!
[02:17] <Errpast1> intelikey, OK.  At least a fellow traveler :)
[02:17] <epimeth> w00t!!!
[02:17] <tarnold> YAY
[02:17] <SolidSource> tarnold: put what it said into pastebin.sk
[02:17] <intelikey> marissa yes if you only have one kernel version installed then the live CD is the only hope.
[02:17] <tarnold> ok
[02:17] <epimeth> sorry for running off, Admiral_Chicago
[02:18] <intelikey> or should i say a live cd
[02:18] <marissa> heh, okay, that sounds just peachy
[02:18] <T3hWiz0r1> whats the best tool to manage partitions in kde?
[02:18] <epimeth> I disconnected the wire when wireless started working, but then it died... heh
[02:18] <T3hWiz0r1> i need to delete and resize a harddrive partition and format it to be dropped into another computer.
[02:18] <T3hWiz0r1> and i'd prefer it to be gui based. I was hoping for something similar to what YaST uses
[02:19] <epimeth> so back to my original question... how do I check the current resolution in X?
[02:19] <SolidSource> t3hwiz0r1: Gparted
[02:19] <SolidSource> !gparted
[02:19] <ubotu> gparted is gparted is a GUI partitioning program, "sudo apt-get install gparted", also available as a live cd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[02:19] <T3hWiz0r1> SolidSource: is it similar?
[02:19] <tarnold> solid source: http://pastebin.sk/en/973/
[02:19] <intelikey> marissa i would sujest    pivot_root  in place of  chroot   but that's just cause i'm at home in a console.
[02:19] <marissa> okay. where is initramfs located?
[02:20] <intelikey> marissa /boot/
[02:20] <marissa> thank you
[02:20] <intelikey> marissa normally named  initrd.img-<kernel version number>
[02:20] <SolidSource> t3hwiz0r1: don't know, but its the main graphical partitioner for ubuntu
[02:20] <marissa> I hate to be a bother, but do you know how I could go about editing it to make it work properly?
[02:21] <intelikey> marissa can't edit it really.  generate a new one.
[02:21] <marissa> okay, thanks
[02:21] <SolidSource> tarnold: ok, I see...missed one of the keys
[02:21] <T3hWiz0r1> SolidSource: can it resize an ntfs partition to be larger is my main question?
[02:21] <tarnold> oh
[02:21] <T3hWiz0r1> because i need to give my windows drive its 80 gb back
[02:21] <intelikey> marissa the command     mkinitramfs      man mkinitramfs for the specifics.
[02:22] <SolidSource> t3hwiz0r1: don't think it can do NTFS...but not sure
[02:22] <marissa> intelikey: I'll go give that a try now
[02:22] <tarnold> solidsource: i still have the sources list, but i think i closed the pastebin with the commands on it
[02:22] <BluesKaj> T3hWiz0r1, windoze doesn't need 80G ...mine gets by quite wll with 50G:)
[02:23] <SolidSource> tarnold: you ran "gpg --keyserver hkp://subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 437D05B5 1135D466 DD4D5088 0C5A2783" and then "
[02:23] <SolidSource> gpg --export --armor 437D05B5 1135D466 DD4D5088 0C5A2783| sudo apt-key add -" correct"
[02:23] <T3hWiz0r1> BluesKaj: the thing is that it wsa devided long before i had enough harddrive space to allocate to linux
[02:23] <T3hWiz0r1> now that linux has its own 500gb drive, windoze needs its 80 back for games ;-)
[02:23] <T3hWiz0r1> my wintend0
[02:23] <intelikey> marissa something like this example from the liveCD:  chroot /mnt/ mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-<version> <version>       where <version> is the kernel version in /mnt/lib/modules/
[02:23] <BluesKaj> gamerz...bah humbug, get an xbox :)
[02:24] <intelikey> _roconnor: sudo chroot /mnt/ mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-<version> <version>
[02:24] <intelikey>  or: sudo chroot /mnt/ mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-<version> <version>
[02:24] <intelikey> stupid nick completion.
[02:24] <tarnold> solidsource: so what now?
[02:25] <T3hWiz0r1> this is odd
[02:25] <T3hWiz0r1> linux can see my ide-to-usb harddrive adapter and the harddrive on it.
[02:25] <T3hWiz0r1> but it can't seem to write to the drive  now or see whats on it.
[02:25] <SolidSource> blueskaj: but what about WoW and such games....need both console and computer for best gaming
[02:26] <SolidSource> tarnold: oh I see what you did
[02:26] <intelikey> and you have it mounted ?
[02:26] <tarnold> solidsource:what did i do?
[02:26] <intelikey> and are looking at the mount point ?
[02:26] <T3hWiz0r1> intelikey: talking to me?
[02:26] <intelikey> yes
[02:26] <SolidSource> tarnold: http://pastebin.sk/en/972/   you need to run those commands separately
[02:26] <intelikey> you have dubble nicks and i'm too lazy to type out your name.
[02:26] <cycro> hello
[02:27] <T3hWiz0r1> well no now tis simply not mounting
[02:27] <cycro> has anybody used photorec?
[02:27] <T3hWiz0r1> and iunno where the other one is logged in at here lol
[02:27] <tarnold> so copy the first line in, hit enter, and then paste the second in and hit enter?\
[02:27] <T3hWiz0r1> intelikey: it says its on /dev/sda1
[02:27] <T3hWiz0r1> but now thats not mounting in terminal
[02:27] <tarnold> and anyway both commands seemed to be teh same thing...?
[02:27] <SolidSource> tarnold: yes or put "&&" between each
[02:27] <intelikey> no that's the device   not the mountpoint
[02:27] <SolidSource> tarnold: they are not the same
[02:27] <T3hWiz0r1> mountpoint was set to /220
[02:27] <tarnold> ok, which one first?
[02:28] <cycro> photorec, any1?
[02:28] <tarnold> and is it three commands or 2?
[02:28] <intelikey> ok    sudo mount /dev/sda1 /220 -o remount
[02:28] <SolidSource> tarnold: it only 2 commands
[02:28] <tarnold> ok
[02:28] <intelikey> assuming /220 is a dir.
[02:28] <tarnold> so the top line first and then the second line?
[02:29] <T3hWiz0r1> intelikey: in which order does the file system get named in that?
[02:29] <cycro> help anybody? :(
[02:29] <intelikey> device mountpoint
[02:29] <SolidSource> tarnold: yes
[02:29] <tarnold> oik
[02:29] <dx11101> how do you share data with windows computers?
[02:29] <intelikey> | T3hWiz0r1<EMAIL_ADDRESS>(Network)
[02:29] <intelikey> | t3hwiz0rd<EMAIL_ADDRESS>(Network)
[02:30] <dx11101> im in komba but i cant find out how to add shares
[02:30] <tarnold> solidsource: do i need to run sudo first?
[02:30] <T3hWiz0r1> intelikey: i'll deal with that later
[02:30] <intelikey> :)
[02:30] <T3hWiz0r1> for now,where do i place the filesystem type in that command.
[02:30] <intelikey> you don't.
[02:30] <SolidSource> tarnold: no
[02:31] <intelikey> what fs type is it ?
[02:31] <T3hWiz0r1> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[02:31] <T3hWiz0r1> according to mount i do
[02:31] <T3hWiz0r1> it *should* be ntfs
[02:31] <intelikey> then the device node or the mountpoint is wrong.
[02:31] <T3hWiz0r1> it came out of a computer at work that the idiot thought hte drive was bad, when it is infact his motherboard.
[02:31] <arunkale> !nvidia
[02:31] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:31] <tarnold> solidsource: running commands now
[02:31] <SolidSource> tarnold:  one minor edit in the second command though....missed a space "gpg --export --armor 437D05B5 1135D466 DD4D5088 0C5A2783 | sudo apt-key add -"
[02:31] <intelikey> T3hWiz0r1 you can test: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media
[02:32] <intelikey>  /media should be a dir.
[02:32] <T3hWiz0r1> wants the file system type still
[02:32] <tarnold> solidsource: would you want the output of the first commnad?
[02:32] <SolidSource> no
[02:32] <tarnold> ok
[02:32] <intelikey> then it's the device node.   unplug it and replug it.
[02:32] <tarnold> can i paste what you just put in the IRC chat into my console?
[02:33] <T3hWiz0r1> okay, its out
[02:33] <T3hWiz0r1> intelikey: its in a removable usb casing right now
[02:33] <Admiral_Chicago> tarnold: shift + insert
[02:33] <SolidSource> tarnold:  yes, the stuff in the quotes
[02:33] <T3hWiz0r1> intelikey: and the system sees it Bus 001 Device 007: ID 05e3:0702 Genesys Logic, Inc. USB 2.0 IDE Adapter
[02:33] <intelikey> T3hWiz0r1 well on the outside chance i'm wrong    sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media -t ntfs
[02:34] <T3hWiz0r1> hmm still no good there
[02:34] <intelikey> but i'm guessing it will say the same thing.
[02:34] <T3hWiz0r1> yup
[02:34] <T3hWiz0r1> and the disk manager in kubuntu is clueless about anything.
[02:34] <T3hWiz0r1> it shows the device as /dev/sda1
[02:35] <intelikey> and you specified the type so the error message is not generated by type but rather by not knowing where the device is.
[02:35] <T3hWiz0r1> but shows no details on it and whe nits unplugged it still shows it as there
[02:35] <jarn> How do I resize my Linux partition?
[02:35] <marissa> intelikey: shell says: "Cannot run command 'mkiniramfs': no such file or directory
[02:35] <intelikey> T3hWiz0r1  sudo fdisk -l
[02:35] <T3hWiz0r1> hmm it still shows them as /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2
[02:36] <intelikey> marissa mkinitramfs           with a "t"
[02:36] <SolidSource> tarnold: then to install "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude knetworkmanager"
[02:36] <marissa> intelikey: sorry, typo, I did type mkinitramfs
[02:36] <marissa> and it told me there was no such file or directory
[02:36] <T3hWiz0r1> wait, intelikey, now gparted is seeing it
[02:37] <intelikey> marissa you are talking to the typo king of kubuntu   so if there is an error it's probably mine.
[02:37] <tarnold> ok
[02:37] <T3hWiz0r1> and its giving me the option to write the partition to it
[02:37] <SolidSource> tarnold: ooops "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install knetworkmanager"
[02:37] <intelikey> T3hWiz0r1 why are you in gparted ?     i just said   fdisk -l     to "list" the partitions.
[02:38] <marissa> intelikey: ha, okay, but I looked up "mkinitramfs" on google and apparently it's spelled right =)
[02:38] <T3hWiz0r1> intelikey: i ran that
[02:38] <T3hWiz0r1> and its showing up so it was allowing it to create a partition
[02:38] <tarnold> ok i got sidetracked ive still yet to input the second command: i got it off the irc chat, what is the | mean?
[02:38] <intelikey> T3hWiz0r1 and   sda1 is listed >
[02:38] <T3hWiz0r1> ofcourse *now* its not
[02:38] <T3hWiz0r1> intelikey: yes
[02:38] <T3hWiz0r1> intelikey: /dev/sda1            1045        2089     8388736    0  Empty
[02:38] <intelikey> then it might mount now.
[02:39] <prak> does anyone know how to install a driver such that that driver would work with applications opened with wine?
[02:39] <marissa> intelikey: it also told me that there was no such thing as "chroot" either. I think we have a problem =)
[02:39] <SolidSource> tarnold: its kind of like the "&&" separater
[02:39] <dr_willis> prak,  good luck there.. could just try installing it with wine, and then install the apps and hope it works
[02:39] <T3hWiz0r1> intelikey: all i wanna do is preformat it and then drop it into the suse server and set it a mountpoint to clear the laod of my servers *main* drive
[02:39] <komputer> SSSSSSSSSSSS
[02:39] <intelikey> marissa yeah  what is running ?
[02:39] <tarnold> so nothing has to be after the | sudo apt-key add -   ?
[02:39] <dr_willis> since wine sort of makes a 'virtual windows drive'
[02:39] <Admiral_Chicago> is google talk like jabber? i think automatically no, but i'm not sure
[02:39] <marissa> Just the Kubuntu liveCD
[02:39] <intelikey> marissa live CD ?
[02:40] <prak> dr_willis, i've already tried that
[02:40] <SolidSource> tarnold: nothing
[02:40] <intelikey> ok and a konsole ?
[02:40] <prak> dr_willis, it doesn't work
[02:40] <dr_willis> prak,  what is this driver for?
[02:40] <marissa> intelikey yeah
[02:40] <tarnold> solidsource: ok hitting the enter stroke in the console now
[02:40] <intelikey> in the konsole    echo $PATH
[02:40] <T3hWiz0r1> intelikey: what almost seems to be the problem is the drive is loading into readonly once its booted
[02:40] <tarnold> alright now updating sources and installing knetworkmanager
[02:40] <prak> dr_willis, it's for a usb-to-serial adapter

[02:41] <T3hWiz0r1> i know how to view them
[02:41] <T3hWiz0r1> i don't even wanna see it i just wanna wipe the darn hunker
[02:41] <T3hWiz0r1> lol
[02:41] <T3hWiz0r1> i tried in windows it didn't wanna
[02:41] <prak> dr_willis, it's installed on the linux system, but i want it to work with an application that requires me to open it with wine
[02:41] <prak> or
[02:41] <T3hWiz0r1> i know my suse box can do it but what im afraid of is both drives have boot partitions on them and the server boots without a gui
[02:41] <prak> dr_willis, if I can upload/flash my hex file to the 8051 microcontroller in minicom, that would be also fantastic
[02:42] <T3hWiz0r1> if it tries to boot to the windows drive first or otherwise messes up the boot list in grub, i'll have no idea until after the fact.
[02:42] <SolidSource> no one know what the Guarddog firewall IRC channel is?
[02:42] <intelikey> oh then don't mount it.    just blank the disk.    sudo -i        cat /dev/zero > /dev/sda
[02:42] <marissa> intelikey: actually, running chroot gives me this: "chroot: cannot run command '/bin/bash': no such file
[02:42] <prak> dr_willis, although i have trouble on finding out on how to do that
[02:42] <SolidSource> !guarddog
[02:42] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[02:42] <arunkale> nero isn't letting me burn an iso :\
[02:43] <intelikey> marissa then the root you chose is not the root of the installed system.   is the disk mounted?    mount
[02:43] <marissa> intelikey: mount hda1?
[02:43] <makuseru> how can i change the defualt audio track on a .mkv file
[02:43] <intelikey> marissa   mount
[02:43] <marissa> okay
[02:43] <intelikey> marissa it will list what is mounted
[02:43] <intelikey> and where
[02:45] <intelikey> if it is mounted someplace else, use that mountpoint  i.e. /media/hda1
[02:45] <intelikey> example only. ^
[02:46] <intelikey> marissa   report ?
[02:46] <BenPA> why am I getting this error when I try to update http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8712/plain/
[02:46] <marissa> intelikey: you want to know everything that shows up?
[02:47] <SolidSource> tarnold: everything ok now?
[02:47] <intelikey> no just the mountpoint of the disk in question.
[02:47] <arunkale> do i need to burn the iso as a bootable cd, or does it do that automaticallyt
[02:48] <intelikey> BenPA too late in the error messages.  scroll up and see what error emacs21 gave
[02:48] <prak> does anyone know of a good open source software that allows me to flash/upload hex files to 8051 microcontrollers?
[02:48] <marissa> intelikey: Um... it doesn't seem to be on there o.O
[02:48] <intelikey> BenPA probably  a dependancy problem.
[02:49] <intelikey> marissa ok.    sudo fdisk -l             should list all partitions for you so you can see what device it is.
[02:49] <jarn> How do I resize my Linux partition? I can't do it while I'm in Linux, so how would I do it?
[02:49] <makuseru> how can i change the defualt audio track on a .mkv file
[02:49] <SolidSource> jarm: use the live CD/DVD
[02:49] <SolidSource> jarm: just remember is not recommended
[02:50] <marissa> intelikey: /dev/hda3 is nowhere to be found using mount
[02:50] <BenPA> hold a sec I will create another one
[02:51] <intelikey> marissa and    sudo mount /dev/hda3 /media     <<< example.  hda3 was a guess.         and    sudo chroot /media    <<< exact command
[02:53] <crazy_bus> I installed synfig awhile ago and there was a problem with the way it was compiled for ubuntu.  Has this been fixed?
[02:53] <marissa> intelikey: hda3 isn't in fstab
[02:53] <intelikey> marissa that should get you into the installed system where you can     mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img<ver> <ver>        <<< again use the actual version to be generated, looking in  /lib/modules/   of the chrooted system if nessecarry to determine.
[02:53] <BenPA> it does seem like a dependency but I cannot create a paste ot say I am trying to spam and to enable javascript and I dont know how
[02:54] <intelikey> hda3 was a guess on my part.     sudo fdisk -l      <<< that should list the partitions you have.
[02:54] <makuseru> how can i change the defualt audio track on a .mkv file
[02:54] <prak> does anyone know of a good open source software that allows me to flash/upload hex files to 8051 microcontrollers?
[02:54] <marissa> intelikey: The only things in my fstab is unionfs tempfs and /dev/hda2 (my swap drive)
[02:55] <intelikey> marissa what does fstab have to do with beans?    ^    and if you need more help    someone else will have to fill in for me or you will have to wait a bit,  i have to make rounds.
[02:55] <BenPA> itelikey .. it does seem like a dependency but I cannot create a paste ot say I am trying to spam and to enable javascript and I dont know how
[02:56] <intelikey> BenPA use http://pastebin.ca
[02:56] <marissa> intelikey: well, fdisk -l listed /dev/hda3... but I can't mount it because it's not listed in fstab. Enjoy making your rounds =)
[02:57] <BenPA> itelikey .. here it is ... http://pastebin.ca/index.php
[02:58] <BenPA> itelikey .. sorry here it is ... http://pastebin.ca/381776
[02:58] <prak> does anyone know of a good open source software that allows me to flash/upload hex files to 8051 microcontrollers?
[03:01] <Kite_DH> im gonna sleep now my preciouskubuntus
[03:01] <Kite_DH> lol
[03:02] <makuseru> how can i change the defualt audio track on a .mkv file
[03:04] <intelikey> BenPA id say the update package of "emacs21" is borked.     file a bug.
[03:04] <BenPA> ok
[03:04] <BenPA> I dont know how to do that
[03:04] <intelikey> marissa you don't need a fstab entry to mount anything manually.   all you need is an fs and a dirrectory.
[03:05] <intelikey> back in a bit  hopefully
[03:05] <BenPA> itelikey ... what kinda of error would it cause?
[03:05] <dan_> Hi ! Can someone say how to load quickly (like openSUSE) application that autostart like kmix,knetworkmanager,klipper...on Feisty
[03:06] <BenPA> itelikey ... and how do I file a bug
[03:06] <Nontitle> does anybody here use gtk-gnutella?
[03:06] <Jucato> !autostart | dan_
[03:06] <ubotu> dan_: To make programs autostart with your KDE session, you can make a link to it in ~/.kde/Autostart. The package 'kcontrol-autostart' makes a kcontrol item for handling items in that directory.
[03:07] <dan_> Thanks, but this application already start on my laptop, I just want to launch FAST like opensuse....
[03:07] <dan_> can we make it with the package kcontrol-autostart
[03:08] <Jucato> what do you mean by "launch fast"?
[03:08] <Dr_willis> launch fast?  faster how?
[03:08] <dan_> DOn't need to use it....
[03:08] <Dr_willis> you mean automaticially?
[03:09] <Dr_willis> !find kcontrol
[03:09] <ubotu> Found: kcontrol-autostart, kcontrol
[03:09] <dan_> non I mean load FAST
[03:09] <joel> ...or pre-linking perhaps? That can make applications load faster.
[03:09] <Dr_willis> kcontrol-autostart - just manages "Autostart" entries. it dosent make them faster loading
[03:10] <dan_> I dont think is prelink, is like 5 time faster then on kubuntu
[03:10] <dan_> it's amazing....
[03:10] <dan_> I search for the trick ;0
[03:10] <Dr_willis> id have to see proof of that claim to be honest with ya
[03:10] <praetor_> does Kubuntu come with a partitioning tool?
[03:10] <Jucato> praetor_: in the Live CD, QtParted.
[03:11] <Jucato> but not on an installed system.
[03:11] <Dr_willis> !info qtparted
[03:11] <ubotu> qtparted: A parted frontend using QT. In component main, is optional. Version 0.4.5-2ubuntu11 (edgy), package size 202 kB, installed size 716 kB
[03:11] <praetor_> Jucato: cheers
[03:11] <dx11101> i set up a share but i can access it from my windows box
[03:12] <dx11101> it gives me a user prompt but nothing works
[03:12] <praetor_> couldnt seem to find it from adept search
[03:12] <dan_> exemple, kmix, klipper and knetworkmanger start not one after one but all in same time !
[03:12] <Dr_willis> dx11101,  use 'sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME' to add a samba password for your user -
[03:12] <dan_> and very quiclky
[03:12] <makuseru> how can i change the defualt audio track on a .mkv file
[03:13] <dx11101> dr_willis, whats the username?
[03:13] <Dr_willis> dx11101,  that would be you rlinux user's username
[03:14] <Dr_willis> then when windows accesses the linxu box. it 'should' be able to get to the users home dir.
[03:14] <Dr_willis> actually that may be disabled in the default samba.conf
[03:14] <praetor_> woah qtparted looks fugly
[03:15] <joel> dan_: That sounds like they're somehow kept preloaded. Either that, or you put them on a flash disk, or something faster than hard drive.
[03:16] <dx11101> okay wait
[03:16] <dan_> I think is something like taht
[03:16] <dx11101> all i did was add a share in "System Settings"
[03:16] <dan_> is very amazing fast
[03:16] <dx11101> and i want to see it on my dads computer
[03:17] <dx11101> i made it public but not writable
[03:17] <Dr_willis> dx11101,  i cant say that ive ever used that. I normally just ediot the samba.conf and set up the HOME dirs to be shared
[03:17] <Dr_willis> dx11101,  you may need to restrt the samba service.. and you may want to double check your  'workgroup' name
[03:17] <fyrmedic> Is anyone good at diagnosing and fixing sound issues, or able to point to a good link?
[03:17] <reldruh> how would i check if I can put a SATA drive into my computer?
[03:17] <dx11101> okay brb
[03:18] <Dr_willis> reldruh,  look on the mb for some sata conectors?
[03:18] <ubuntu_> hello
[03:18] <Dr_willis> sata controler cards are not too expensive i belive.
[03:18] <reldruh> Dr_willis: what do SATA connectors look like? Where would a sata controller card hook in to?
[03:18] <grgbpm> heelllooo
[03:19] <grgbpm> i am new on llinux^^
[03:19] <grgbpm> its great
[03:19] <Solid_Source> reldruh: you get the latest K9copy?
[03:20] <reldruh> Solid_Source: nope :-(
[03:20] <reldruh> Solid_Source: I moved on to trying to get mythtv working. I think it was a mistake :-)
[03:20] <Solid_Source> reldruh: well it is in the repos....just use the source-o-matic
[03:21] <danielches> hi, my frostwire is no longering working
[03:21] <danielches> i click on it, nut no splash screen comes up
[03:22] <Dr_willis> run it from a terminal. see if thers any error messages
[03:22] <danielches> the loading thing appears at bottom then disapears after a while
[03:22] <danielches> that me?
[03:22] <BluesKaj> mythtv is ridiculously difficult to get working
[03:22] <danielches> how do i run frostwire in a term?
[03:22] <Dr_willis> danielches,  thats trouble shooting  step 1 :) see what erroe messages are showing up
[03:22] <Dr_willis> try 'frostwire' in a terminal?
[03:22] <grgbpm> ok peoples i go to sleep
[03:22] <Dr_willis> BluesKaj,  tats why i use KnoppMyth
[03:25] <jarn> Anyone know a nice-looking QT-based browser? Konqueror really seems to give me problems. It crashes really often. And Firefox is ugly.
[03:25] <jarn> Really, just a QT-based browser.
[03:25] <jarn> A good one.
[03:25] <Dr_willis> 'egads' its ugly!....
[03:25] <Dr_willis> :)
[03:25] <arunkale> Use a Firefox theme?
[03:25] <Dr_willis> odd - i dont find it ugly
[03:25] <Dr_willis> Konqueror/firefox/opera/
[03:25] <arunkale> jarn: try opera?
[03:26] <Dr_willis> isent there the firefox spinoffs also flock? or somthing
[03:26] <jarn> Dr_willis: I don't find it ugly in Windows, but I do in Linux.
[03:26] <fyrmedic> How do I make sure that my dual core processor is working? When I check KInfocenter it only lists one, and I was reding logs and found one that said it was ignoring second processor.
[03:26] <Dr_willis> jarn,  odd.. they look identical on both to me.
[03:27] <danielches> i'm getting a java errot
[03:27] <danielches> OOPS, your java version is too old [java = 1.4.2-02]

[03:31] <surgy> Jucato: yes
[03:31] <jryhiggins> yes
[03:31] <surgy> jryhiggins: use adept and search for that package
[03:32] <jryhiggins> ok thanks i'll try
[03:32] <danielches> so, your saying dont use the package manager?
[03:32] <surgy> Jucato: thanks
[03:32] <danielches> so, downlaod it from teh java site or what?
[03:32] <surgy> danielches: what pakage manager?
[03:32] <marissa> no idea why mkinitramfs is asking for a kernel I don't have /me sighs
[03:32] <Jucato> danielches: just don't use adept. you can use apt-get
[03:32] <danielches> adept
[03:32] <surgy> danielches: use the java-nonfree package
[03:33] <danielches> ?
[03:33] <danielches> apt-get
[03:33] <surgy> danielches: try: sudo apt-cache search  java
[03:33] <danielches> so can i get that from adept
[03:33] <Jucato> danielches: no! do not use Adept. use apt-get instead
[03:33] <danielches> ok
[03:33] <surgy> danielches: i whould use the console
[03:33] <danielches> so, type sun-java6-jre
[03:33] <danielches> in terminal?
[03:33] <Jucato> yes. in Konsole
[03:34] <surgy> danielches: sudo apt-get sun-java6-jre
[03:34] <Jucato> sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[03:34] <Jucato> surgy: you forgot "install"
[03:34] <surgy> what jucato said :)
[03:34] <Jucato> :P
[03:34] <joel> Ah, dan_ left, but the FAST-start thing seems to be some scripts that preload certain applications in a low priority nice:ed  process.
[03:34] <joel> http://en.opensuse.org/SUPER_preloading
[03:34] <surgy> Jucato: i do that a lot :)
[03:34] <danielches> ok, installing
[03:35] <danielches> so, should that make frostwire work?
[03:35] <surgy> danielches: yerp
[03:35] <danielches> also, how did it stop working?
[03:35] <Jucato> joel: I'm not familiar if there's something similar in Kubuntu
[03:35] <makuseru> how do i import a GPG key
[03:35] <surgy> danielches: how did what stop working?
[03:35] <Jucato> danielches: you need one more command: "sudo update-alternatives --config java"
[03:35] <surgy> !key
[03:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about key - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[03:36] <stuffcorpse> Hello, is there a way of using apt tools to display a list of files installed by a particular package?
[03:36] <joel> Jucato: There's a "preload" package, *shrugs* and as far as I can tell, the SUPER part is some scripts. They should be portable.
[03:36] <makuseru> that dosnt have any information on importing keys
[03:36] <danielches> ok
[03:36] <danielches> frost wire stopped working
[03:36] <danielches> it used to work
[03:36] <danielches> like a few days ago
[03:36] <surgy> makuseru: all i got :( sorry
[03:37] <danielches> then i had java problems with firefox, and tried re-installing java
[03:37] <surgy> danielches: is it working now that jre is installed?
[03:37] <Jucato> joel: why *should* it be portable? SUSE and Kubuntu are different systems...
[03:37] <danielches> (java still does nto work in ff)
[03:37] <danielches> its still installing
[03:37] <danielches> 12%
[03:37] <surgy> danielches: have you restarted FF?
[03:37] <Jucato> joel: it *may* be portable, but not 100% sure
[03:37] <danielches> not this time
[03:37] <danielches> waiting for it to finish install
[03:38] <Jucato> danielches: firefox needs a different package for the java plugin
[03:38] <surgy> danielches: there is a few places in the jre install you need to provide input, thats why we had you use console instead of adept
[03:38] <danielches> ok
[03:38] <Jucato> Java JRE is for Java apps like forstwire
[03:38] <Jucato> danielches: you need sun-java6-plugin for Firefox
[03:38] <danielches> is that the package
[03:38] <Jucato> yes
[03:38] <danielches> i have firefox as the website version, not packaged
[03:38] <surgy> Jucato: danielches i just got all the java packages :) havnt had a problem with java since
[03:39] <danielches> ok
[03:39] <Jucato> !info sun-java6-pluing | danielches

[03:39] <danielches> teh app get version is US english, i wanted UK english
[03:39] <surgy> danielches: my FF is from apt-get
[03:40] <joel> Jucato: It's a shell script that invoke /usr/bin/preload, and I can find preload in aptitude.
[03:40] <surgy> danielches: you can download the language packs within firefox
[03:40] <danielches> ?
[03:40] <Jucato> joel: ok good. but the script might not be 100% compatible, specially since Kubuntu is now using DASH instead of BASH
[03:40] <danielches> liek for firefox intself (not dictionary)
[03:42] <danielches> ?
[03:42] <makuseru> how do i import a GPG key
[03:42] <BenPA> itelikey ... I found the info as to how to report the bug and I did ... thanks for your help
[03:43] <joel> Jucato: Yeah. Well, I dont care to try it myself cause it's not something I want. DASH? omg, that's news to me. :)

[04:09] <Fizzbane> i can get admin rights on the system config
[04:09] <Jucato> Fizzbane: what are you trying to do? (came in late)
[04:09] <bordy> hey folks... a guy contacting me for help on kubuntu just installed and his wireless will not connect. Anyone have decent knowledge on this stuff?
[04:09] <danielches> what was the otehr thing i had too do, after java finished installing?
[04:09] <Jucato> !root | epenovi
[04:09] <ubotu> epenovi: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:09] <Fizzbane> configure grub to boot windows and linux
[04:09] <epenovi> yes i know
[04:09] <epenovi> are you as root?
[04:10] <Fizzbane> no
[04:10] <epenovi> TYPE su
[04:10] <epenovi> TYPE su
[04:10] <epenovi> TYPE su
[04:10] <epenovi> TYPE su
[04:10] <epenovi> TYPE su
[04:10] <epenovi> TYPE su
[04:10] <Jucato> epenovi: Kubuntu doesn't have root user enabled. there is no root password by default
[04:10] <Fizzbane> i did and it doesnt work
[04:10] <me2win> epenovi: you have to enable su to work first
[04:10] <Fizzbane> how do i enable an su
[04:10] <Jucato> and that's not recommended, at least in Kubuntu
[04:10] <danielches> what else do i have to type into konsole to get java to work?
[04:10] <Jucato> Fizzbane: if you need to run a command as root, you just add "sudo" before that command
[04:11] <Fizzbane> ok
[04:11] <epenovi> well
[04:11] <Dr_willis> moo. :)
[04:11] <Fizzbane> what command do i need to put in for me to config grub to boot windows and linux
[04:11] <epenovi> type sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:12] <Dr_willis> installer dident add a windows entry by default?
[04:12] <Fizzbane> nope
[04:12] <Dr_willis> odd.
[04:12] <Fizzbane> yeah
[04:12] <me2win> different partitions
[04:12] <me2win> thats why
[04:12] <Fizzbane> its a different hd
[04:12] <me2win> err
[04:12] <Dr_willis> theres an entry for windows on hda1 - in the examples
[04:12] <me2win> different HD
[04:12] <Dr_willis> It found MY windows on a different hd.
[04:12] <ubuntu__> Dr_willis: same
[04:12] <Fizzbane> it didnt find mine cuz my pc is retarded
[04:12] <danielches> how to i finish setting up java???
[04:13] <Dr_willis> heh - :)
[04:13] <Fizzbane> umm
[04:13] <Fizzbane> how do i redo my keyboard configureation
[04:13] <Fizzbane> cuz i dont do the slashes
[04:13] <Solid_Source> danielches: which browser and how did you install browser and java?
[04:14] <danielches> firefox, i got it from moz site,  and java, installed through konsole
[04:14] <Jucato> danielches: you installed sun-java6-plugin? that's what you need to be able to use java applets in Firefox
[04:14] <surgy> hey Dr_willis
[04:15] <Fizzbane> i cannot type slashes
[04:15] <Fizzbane> i get this instead of a slash
[04:15] <epenovi> well buy a new keyboard
[04:15] <danielches> first, i wnat to get frostwire working
[04:16] <Fizzbane> i need to redo keyboard setting
[04:16] <Fizzbane> maybe
[04:16] <Jucato> danielches: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[04:16] <Jucato> danielches: choose the Sun Java version
[04:16] <epenovi> look in google
[04:16] <danielches> sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre is how i installed
[04:16] <joel> epenovi: That's not really helpful.
[04:16] <Jucato> danielches: sudo update-alternatives --config java <--- run this command after installing
[04:17] <danielches> which number do i chose?
[04:17] <Jucato> danielches: the one that has sun java in the line
[04:17] <Fizzbane> i cannot type slashes on my keyboard anymore.
[04:17] <Solid_Source> danielches jucato: also to get firefox working after you install the plugin, copy the contents of "/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/" to "/home/USER/.mozilla/plugins
[04:17] <Fizzbane> how do i fix that
[04:18] <Jucato> Solid_Source: only necessary for Fizzbane :)
[04:18] <Jucato> Solid_Source: not necessary if you installed firefox from the repos
[04:18] <joel> Fizzbane: Where in kde/x or in the console?
[04:18] <danielches> 2 options say sun
[04:18] <Solid_Source> Jucato: but he didn't install firefox through repo
[04:18] <Fizzbane> i cannot type slashes anywhere
[04:18] <Jucato> Solid_Source: yeah, that's why only necessar for danielches
[04:18] <Fizzbane> i get  instead
[04:18] <Jucato> danielches: sun java 1.6 ?
[04:19] <danielches> java 6?
[04:19] <Solid_Source> Jucato: thats who I was applying it to
[04:19] <danielches> or 1.5?
[04:19] <Jucato> danielches: yeah

[04:24] <igorjr> hi
[04:24] <igorjr> i just closed down an adept session while installing java
[04:24] <Jucato> !adeptfix | igorjr
[04:24] <ubotu> igorjr: If Adept crashed on you and your database is locked, try this in konsole:  sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a
[04:25] <Solid_Source> igorjr: you using feisty?
[04:25] <igorjr> not 6.10
[04:25] <danielches> with:
[04:25] <danielches> danielches jucato: also to get firefox working after you install the plugin, copy the contents of "/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/" to "/home/USER/.mozilla/plugins
[04:25] <igorjr> 6.06 i think
[04:25] <beeko20> i am knew to ubuntu is kde hard to lean
[04:25] <Solid_Source> igorjr: you can't install java in adept
[04:25] <danielches> is ther contents teh folder, or what is in the folder?
[04:25] <Jucato> beeko20: what is hard to learn about it?
[04:25] <Jucato> danielches: ask Solid_Source please
[04:26] <surgy> i have a problem: i need to limit the available bandwidth to all computers on my network on both up and down streams. But the program has to be invisible and run from a single computer to limit the bandwidth on the other two
[04:26] <igorjr> i can't ?
[04:26] <surgy> all computers are running edgy
[04:26] <Fizzbane> um since the guy that was helping me left can someone else tell me how to configure grub to boot windows and linux?
[04:26] <igorjr> it's available there
[04:26] <Solid_Source> igorjr: its available...but it crashes adept
[04:26] <igorjr> i c
[04:26] <beeko20> idk i have heard kde is hard for us that only know windows
[04:26] <Solid_Source> igorjr: got to use konsole "sudo aptitude install sun-java6-bin sun-java6-plugin"
[04:26] <igorjr> thx
[04:27] <Jucato> or rather, it freezes Adept
[04:27] <igorjr> ye
[04:27] <Jucato> beeko20: it's not hard touse
[04:27] <Fizzbane> can someone help me congigure grub to boot windows and linux?
[04:27] <surgy> jucato: can you shed any light on my problem?
[04:27] <igorjr> you have to agree to the license
[04:27] <igorjr> and there it fails
[04:27] <Jucato> beeko20: it's a bit diffrent from Windows, but not that different.
[04:27] <BluesKaj> beeko20, no gnome is harder for windows users...kde is much more windoze friendly
[04:27] <surgy> !grub Fizzbane
[04:27] <Solid_Source> danielches: mozilla-firefox contains the plugins for firefox...but since you install firefox manually, you have to copy them over

[04:34] <danielches> but there is no firefox missing plugins thing

[04:42] <Solid_Source> but to compile from tar.gz, you need build-essential
[04:43] <danielches> well, i downlaoded it, and i just run '/home/daniel/firefox/firefox', to run ff
[04:43] <Solid_Source> compile from source I mean
[04:43] <Dr_willis> i though there was a prebuilt binary iof firefox you could download
[04:43] <arunkale> Hey, people.. I just booted from my Edgy live CD.. it does not detect my resolution for some reason, the maximum resolution I can go to is 1024x768.
[04:43] <Dr_willis> Fizzbane,  grub has an entry for windows now?
[04:43] <me2win> arunkale: might have to add it manually to xorg.conf
[04:43] <arunkale> I have a widescreen 19" ViewSonic monitor, and the optimum resolution for this is 1440x900 ... i am also using an nvidia graphics card.
[04:44] <Fizzbane> Dr_willis: grub does NOT have a windows entery
[04:44] <mortici> anyone know why my network card doesn't work on boot up, i have to disable and enable it in order for it to get connectivity?
[04:44] <danielches> i am still getiing the same error with real player
[04:44] <Dr_willis> Fizzbane,  guess ya should edit the grub menu.lst and an entry for windows. theres an example entry in it for windows on hda1
[04:44] <arunkale> me2win: i tried adding it to xorg.conf using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ... it still wouldn't show. Also, I think it detects my monitor as 'generic monitor', and my video card as 'generic video card'
[04:45] <Fizzbane> how do i get in and edit it
[04:45] <me2win> arunkale: you will have to manually add it, not just use dpkg-reconfigure
[04:45] <Dr_willis> !grub
[04:45] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[04:45] <danielches> mplayer has not helped
[04:45] <arunkale> me2win: how do I add it manually
[04:45] <Fizzbane> I READ THAT
[04:45] <Dr_willis> edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:45] <danielches> or, how do i configar m player
[04:45] <Fizzbane> ok
[04:45] <me2win> arunkale: open it up and go down to where you see all the resolutions listed, add it to the front of the list in all the areas
[04:45] <me2win> arunkale: then restart X (ctrl alt backspace)
[04:46] <Solid_Source> danielches: well, you need to copy the stuff from "/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/" over to your firefox folder in your USER folder
[04:46] <arunkale> me2win: it should work then?
[04:46] <me2win> arunkale: yep
[04:46] <arunkale> me2win: alright, let me try
[04:46] <danielches> ok
[04:46] <arunkale> me2win: thanks, see you in a bit
[04:46] <Solid_Source> danielches: if you installed firefox from the repo...you wouldn't have to
[04:47] <danielches> the fiels in /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/, are both java
[04:47] <arunkale> err.. where is xorg.conf located?
[04:47] <Fizzbane> dr willis: that didnt work
[04:47] <Fizzbane> it says it was wrong
[04:47] <niles> i dont  see a print queue in the task bar.  is there supposed to be one?
[04:47] <niles> when printing that is
[04:47] <Solid_Source> danielches: it contains all plugins for firefox
[04:48] <me2win> arunkale: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:48] <arunkale> thanks
[04:48] <danielches> well, tehre are only 2 files in
[04:48] <danielches> file:///usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so
[04:48] <danielches> file:///usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin.so
[04:48] <danielches> are only 2
[04:49] <Fizzbane> Dr_willis: that line did not work
[04:49] <danielches> there is no real, or mplayer stuff in tehre
[04:49] <niles> jesus funny fuck'
[04:49] <Solid_Source> danielches: mozilla-mplayer package installed?
[04:49] <niles> jesus funny fuck'n christ.  after spening all that time setting up a printer.  my documents NOT print.
[04:49] <danielches> i will double check
[04:49] <danielches> i though i just did that
[04:49] <niles> christ on a stick.
[04:50] <Dr_willis> Fizzbane,  ya need the proper entry/stanza - heres my example grub menu.lst  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8737/
[04:50] <Solid_Source> danielches: mozilla-mplayer is the actual name of the package that needs to be installed
[04:51] <Fizzbane> i had that once then someone told me to do something else
[04:51] <niles> linux sucks
[04:51] <Dr_willis> niles,  tell us how you really feel...
[04:51] <Dr_willis> we care... honestly we do.
[04:51] <Fizzbane> linux pwns when you learn it. and i havent learned it either
[04:51] <niles> i feel like bringing a gun to school.
[04:51] <niles> becuase linux is worthless when it comes to office work.
[04:52] <Dr_willis> Given how i tried to format a floppy a disk in windows just a few min ago.. and the windows box powered down.......
[04:52] <niles> hence it's not in the real world like windows
[04:52] <Fizzbane> is that why your daddy beat you?
[04:52] <danielches> how does linux suck more than windows with office stuff
[04:52] <danielches> ?
[04:52] <Fizzbane> how do i get the grub menu.lst?
[04:52] <rada> how can I install text editor joe?
[04:52] <Solid_Source> niles: how is linux bad at office?
[04:52] <danielches> Open Office is way betetr than MS office
[04:53] <Solid_Source> yeah it is
[04:53] <me2win> danielches: ill have to disagree
[04:53] <danielches> how
[04:53] <me2win> office 2007 is VERY powerful software
[04:53] <danielches> Open Document is offficial world standard
[04:53] <Dr_willis> Fizzbane,  kdesudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:53] <me2win> format doesnt define quality of software
[04:53] <Fizzbane> im already in root
[04:53] <danielches> well, for what i need i find OO betetr
[04:53] <Dr_willis> Fizzbane, then edit  /boot/grub/menu.lst  however ya want.
[04:54] <Fizzbane> i did that and it doesnt work
[04:54] <me2win> danielches: definately so, its not for everyone, just like linux
[04:54] <Dr_willis> Fizzbane,  im guessing ya did it wrong, or have some other configuration issue/error in the file
[04:54] <danielches> ok
[04:54] <danielches> mozilla-mplayer, is reporting as installed, but it is not in the plugins folder
[04:55] <Solid_Source> me2win: office 2007 isn't much better than office 2003....
[04:55] <danielches> what is tehh supposed advantage of MS Office over Open Office???
[04:55] <me2win> its a ton better
[04:55] <Solid_Source> danialches: check "/usr/lib/mozilla"
[04:55] <danielches> how?
[04:55] <rada> are the installation packages somewhere on the net? so I can install them via aptitude?
[04:55] <Fizzbane> I had it open before
[04:56] <me2win> every program integrates perfectly with eachother, tooltipping and ease of use are through the roof now. every option is presented right there to you with complete description of what it does
[04:56] <me2win> programs work seamlessly together
[04:56] <me2win> on the fly previewing
[04:56] <danielches> thanks solid source, it was there :)
[04:56] <me2win> access databasing software is great software
[04:57] <monsterb> !firewall
[04:57] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[04:57] <danielches> how is access betetr than OO database?
[04:57] <surgy> !bandwidth
[04:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bandwidth - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:57] <Solid_Source> me2win: well I've used office 2007 and there is nothing that would even want to make me want to take it over OO
[04:57] <Admiral_Chicago> !offtopic
[04:57] <ubotu> #kubuntu is the official Kubuntu support channel, for all Kubuntu-related support questions. Please use #kubuntu-offtopic for general chatter. Thanks!
[04:57] <Solid_Source> ever*
[04:58] <me2win> not only that but, complete integration into office live, online workspaces and management
[04:58] <Fizzbane> how do i open the grub menu
[04:58] <me2win> Solid_Source: like i said, its not for everyone
[04:58] <Fizzbane> cuz its just not working
[04:58] <Solid_Source> me2win: that live stuff is another reason not to use it
[04:59] <me2win> Solid_Source: lol... office live is something OO will never be able to offer
[04:59] <Solid_Source> me2win: never would want it too
[04:59] <danielches> is that the online use thing?
[04:59] <me2win> Solid_Source: you dont need it, thats why
[04:59] <me2win> thats like me saying i dont want an xray machine in my home
[04:59] <me2win> i have no use for it
[05:00] <danielches> Open Office is already avalible online, through some sites
[05:00] <me2win> but the people who do, its lightyears ahead of anything that OO has to offer
[05:00] <me2win> especially large scale business use
[05:00] <CShadowRun> hmm, im hearing about this virtual machine software, is it true that you can run a complete virtual machine inside linux and install another OS like windows xp on it?
[05:00] <danielches> what does it do?
[05:00] <CShadowRun> and if so, can someone point me at some website to read about it? :P
[05:01] <surgy> i have a problem: i need to limit the available bandwidth to all computers on my network on both up and down streams. But the program has to be invisible and run from a single computer to limit the bandwidth on the other two
[05:01] <Solid_Source> me2win: no, if it offered something that I didn't already have going, theres no point to it
[05:02] <danielches> mplayer is not working properly
[05:02] <surgy> danielches: it does that
[05:02] <Solid_Source> go try apple.com/trailors
[05:02] <danielches> the vid is not playing
[05:02] <Solid_Source> and then when trying to load the movie right click >> options/pref
[05:03] <Fizzbane> what do i type in konsole to open up the grub menu so i can manualy add windows? and it is NOT "edit /boot/grub/meun.lst"
[05:03] <Solid_Source> you may need to set the video and audio selections
[05:03] <danielches> the apple thing seems to be loading
[05:03] <danielches> but BBC news was stuffing up
[05:03] <rada> can somebody tell me about installing/aptitude/adept??
[05:03] <igorjr> is there a music-player available, similar to the classic winamp?
[05:04] <jay> xmms?
[05:04] <Dr_willis> igorjr,  xmms, beep media player, audasious, (sp?) and.. hmm some others
[05:04] <igorjr> thx
[05:04] <Solid_Source> danielches: which BBC news clip?
[05:05] <Dr_willis> # Audacious
[05:05] <danielches> 5 secs
[05:06] <danielches> http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/video_and_audio/default.stm and "warnings against Iran attack"
[05:07] <Fizzbane> ok i have the konsole open how do i get into the grub menu
[05:07] <danielches> its different to the one on teh mac site
[05:07] <danielches> mac site worked fine
[05:08] <danielches> but this one does nto appear to be loading
[05:08] <Solid_Source> mac is using quicktime
[05:08] <danielches> ok
[05:08] <danielches> this is real i guess
[05:08] <danielches> it just says "stopped"
[05:08] <Solid_Source> install realplayer
[05:08] <danielches> i have
[05:08] <danielches> but it was coming with abotehr error
[05:09] <danielches> which caused me to install mplayer
[05:09] <danielches> how do i tell it to use real player for real stuff?
[05:10] <purpleposeidon> Fizzbane: try "sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst"
[05:10] <danielches> and in wmp mode, on bbc, i get sound but no video
[05:10] <Fizzbane> i will try that
[05:11] <Solid_Source> danielches: one sec, testing something
[05:11] <Fizzbane> it workd
[05:11] <Fizzbane> it worked*
[05:11] <Fizzbane> now how do i add windows to it
[05:11] <beeko20> ne pointer for kde install is almost done
[05:12] <Fizzbane> how do i add windows to the grub menu, i already have the menu up
[05:12] <purpleposeidon> it depends on what partition/disk it's on
[05:13] <Fizzbane> its on my sata drive
[05:13] <Fizzbane> linux is on my ide drive
[05:13] <purpleposeidon> hda, hdb?
[05:13] <Fizzbane> hda i believe
[05:14] <purpleposeidon> your at the grub boot menu?
[05:14] <Fizzbane> yes
[05:14] <Solid_Source> danielches: err I can't get windows media player or realplayer plugins to work either
[05:15] <danielches> ok
[05:15] <purpleposeidon> get to the grub console
[05:15] <purpleposeidon> I think it's c, or something
[05:15] <Fizzbane> huh?
[05:15] <igorjr> !compile
[05:15] <purpleposeidon> escape, actually

[05:15] <Fizzbane> how do i get to the grub console?
[05:16] <purpleposeidon> press escape?
[05:16] <Fizzbane> k hold on
[05:16] <purpleposeidon> when it shows the list of the ways to boot....
[05:17] <Fizzbane> i clicked escape and nothing happened
[05:18] <purpleposeidon> Fizzbane: what does say below the list?
[05:19] <Fizzbane> ### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST
[05:19] <CShadowRun> how do i copy a file to the '/' directory?

[05:20] <purpleposeidon> can you mount the windows drive in konqueror?
[05:20] <Solid_Source> danielches: think I found something to get realplayer to work
[05:20] <Fizzbane> what?
[05:20] <purpleposeidon> mmm....
[05:20] <CShadowRun> [purpleposeidon-> yea you can mount windows drives in linux, gimme a sec and i'll try and get you some info
[05:20] <purpleposeidon> it's not a removable hard drive, right?

[05:25] <purpleposeidon> is windows on hda or hdb

[05:25] <bonbonthejon> jake_: hold on, ill look it up
[05:26] <rada> I downloaded new resource list. what should I do with it?
[05:26] <bonbonthejon> rada: save it as your /etc/apt/sources.list

[05:28] <purpleposeidon> okay, add (replacing ~ with enters): title Windows ~ root (hd0) ~ savedefault ~ makeactive ~chainloader +1
[05:28] <purpleposeidon> add that to the very bottom of the file
[05:28] <makuseru> what other programs besides K3B will burn a DVD?
[05:29] <purpleposeidon> I think it'll work. Xb
[05:29] <Fizzbane> ....
[05:29] <Fizzbane> i hope so
[05:30] <Solid_Source> danielches: ok think I got realplayer plugin to work...though I not sure exactly how to explain for you to do it
[05:30] <Fizzbane> is that a space between chainloader and +1
[05:30] <purpleposeidon> maybe someone who's better than me with grub can correct me?
[05:30] <purpleposeidon> yes
[05:31] <surgy> i have a problem: i need to limit the available bandwidth to all computers on my network on both up and down streams. But the program has to be invisible and run from a single computer to limit the bandwidth on the other two
[05:31] <Fizzbane> ok i typed that in
[05:32] <DaveQB> makuseru toaster i think
[05:32] <DaveQB> surgy squid might do what you need
[05:32] <purpleposeidon> then control-o will write it, and control-x will exit nano
[05:32] <Fizzbane> ok
[05:32] <surgy> daveqb: all the computers have to run through a centralized computer running squid and working as a router for squid to work right?
[05:32] <arunkale> Hey, people... I just ran the Edgy live CD, and it's detecting my monitor and video card as 'generic monitor' and 'generic video card'. How do I get it to detect them accurately? I am using a ViewSonic 19" widescreen monitor, and nVidia GeForce 6150 video card
[05:33] <Fizzbane> umm i click control+o and now i cant do control+x
[05:33] <surgy> arunkale: install edgy and then come back we will help you get your vid card installed
[05:33] <purpleposeidon> err, press enter between them :b
[05:33] <arunkale> surgy: alright, thanks
[05:33] <surgy> Fizzbane: no clicking use your keyboard
[05:34] <DaveQB> surgy how do you mean ?  The squid server can then send and receive through any other device/router etc, you just need the clients on the network to use the squid server
[05:34] <igorjr> xmms is great, but i miss the right-click options :(
[05:34] <DaveQB> never used squid myself, not sure if it does more then just http, i think it does though
[05:35] <rob_> hello can i get some hellp on installing themes? I get the qt header not found error during configure
[05:35] <surgy> DaveQB: the program has to either run on a remote computer or be invisable, im wanting to limit the bandwidth without the user knowing, its my stepdad and i dont want to hear him gripe
[05:36] <Fizzbane> i am using my keyboard
[05:36] <DaveQB> surgy  like I said, havent used squid, so you will have to do your own research on it, I am just offering a posible avenue
[05:37] <surgy> DaveQB: i appreciate it
[05:37] <Fizzbane> i keep getting a ting sound
[05:37] <Fizzbane> nvm
[05:37] <surgy> DaveQB: i have read a few paragraphs on it, not what im looking for i think
[05:37] <Fizzbane> ill go see if it worked
[05:37] <purpleposeidon> hopefully I didn't miss anything, if that boosts your confidence :b
[05:38] <DaveQB> ok
[05:39] <mortici_> this sucks
[05:40] <mortici_> my sound works fine in the livecd and the network card works and gets detected fine by knetworkmanager but neither works on my installed version :/
[05:40] <rob_> anyone know how to solve a qt header not found error during ./configure
[05:41] <Solid_Source> ok, anyone know why mplayer won't work with real or windows media files?
[05:41] <DaveQB> surgy  a mate said iptables can do it
[05:41] <leafw> how can one trigger suspend or hibernate from the command line? Is apm -s the proper command?  I mean, apm complains there is no support for it in the kernel
[05:41] <DaveQB> surgy  the good old kernel saving the day again
[05:42] <surgy> daveqb: and i can run it from this computer to limit his bandwidth ?
[05:42] <bonbonthejon> rob_: install the headers
[05:42] <DaveQB> obviously it needs to sit between the clients and the internet
[05:42] <jake_> guys please help my adept says :You will not be able to change your system settings in any way (install, remove or upgrade software), because another process is using the packaging system database (probably some other Adept application or apt-get or aptitude). Please close the other application before using this one."
[05:42] <DaveQB> not sure of your set up, or which "this computer" is
[05:43] <surgy> DaveQB: yeah thats my problem, the whole reason i cant use squid
[05:43] <bonbonthejon> !aptfix | jake_
[05:43] <ubotu> jake_: If Adept crashed on you and your database is locked, try this in konsole:  sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a

[05:43] <surgy> jake_: close everything and try again if that doesnt work restart your computer and try
[05:43] <DaveQB> well how do you expect to do this if the trffic doesnt run through the system you prpose to do the throttling ?  Thats impossible
[05:44] <surgy> DaveQB: a background process on the computer in question, or a setting i dont know about on my router
[05:44] <surgy> DaveQB: it has to be invisible though
[05:44] <DaveQB> jake_ try what ubotu said first, if not, I have something oj my blog about this. www.dward.us
[05:44] <shegde> hi
[05:45] <purpleposeidon> surgy: try the router
[05:45] <bonbonthejon> surgy: there might be some QoS stuff on the router, but this all sounds suspicious
[05:45] <bonbonthejon> hi shegde
[05:45] <jmiller565> !kdm
[05:45] <DaveQB> iptables should be, just as long as the traffic passes through it so the sytem can throttle the traffic, otherwise it wont able to, obviously
[05:45] <ubotu> kdm: X display manager for KDE. In component main, is optional. Version 4:3.5.5-0ubuntu3.2 (edgy), package size 611 kB, installed size 1480 kB
[05:45] <surgy> purpleposeidon: bonbonthejon: its a 2wire router
[05:45] <shegde> can someone suggest me how to put a script just with two lines so that it gets executed when i boot
[05:45] <surgy> bonbonthejon: how is it suspicious?
[05:45] <purpleposeidon> surgy: sw00t
[05:45] <jake_> btw guys how can i change my password?
[05:45] <DaveQB> jake_  passwd <username>
[05:46] <DaveQB> jake_  or in system settings
[05:46] <surgy> purpleposeidon: you know the router?
[05:46] <purpleposeidon> no :b
[05:47] <bonbonthejon> jake_: I'm suspicious why you would want to down throttle traffic from his computer
[05:47] <surgy> what is "upstream MTU" ?
[05:47] <surgy> i see it on my routers "advanced settings"
[05:47] <mortici_> god i hope this works lol
[05:48] <bonbonthejon> surgy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_transmission_unit
[05:49] <shegde> can someone suggest me how to put a script just with two lines so that it gets executed when i boot
[05:49] <DaveQB> surgy how many bits are in a packet, is my understanding
[05:49] <DaveQB> 1494 i think is the default and good value, I have had 1500 cause problems
[05:49] <shegde> MTU=MAXIMUM TRANSFER UNIT
[05:49] <surgy> so i cant use MTU to limit bandwidth?
[05:49] <DaveQB> no
[05:49] <purpleposeidon> no
[05:50] <Solid_Source> anyone know how to get mplayer-plugin to play real media and windows media? it doesn't work in firefox or konqueror?
[05:50] <shegde> MTU=Largest packet that would go through an interface
[05:50] <bonbonthejon> surgy: no, it is the number of packets in between breaks
[05:50] <surgy> ahh
[05:50] <mortici_> wewt fixed my network issue
[05:50] <mortici_> now to get the sound to work
[05:50] <surgy> i know little about this subject beyond the basics, what should i be looking for? to limit bandwidth?
[05:50] <bonbonthejon> shegde: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/09/07/adding-a-startup-script-to-be-run-at-bootup/
 sorry but im new to linux, my pass is only 1 cahracter ( ` ) i cannot edit setting because the terminal doesnt read this character, sorry sir
[05:52] <purpleposeidon> bonbonthejon: thanks, that's helpful ^_^
[05:52] <DaveQB> jake_  try escaping it with a \
[05:52] <bonbonthejon> purpleposeidon: the link?
[05:52] <purpleposeidon> si
[05:52] <bonbonthejon> jake_: he means like \'
[05:52] <DaveQB> but should read all characters as literals when entering in a password
[05:53] <jake_> ok but i wanna change my pass without using terminal, but how?
[05:53] <DaveQB> the passwd program handles spaces without escaping, so should handle any other characters too I would of thought
[05:54] <jake_> but it didnt work
[05:55] <jake_> try it, or maybe there's something wrong with keyboards?
[05:55] <bonbonthejon> jake_: "passwd -d" i think deletes the password, then add a new one
[05:55] <DaveQB> nice one bonbonthejon
[05:56] <bonbonthejon> DaveQB: i just did a quick passwd --help
[05:57] <DaveQB> hehe yeah usually where you discover new things
[05:58] <bonbonthejon> DaveQB: things like --help and good ole' ls are things I miss when I have to use windows
[05:59] <jake_> but how do i change pass without using the konsole?
[05:59] <spitwise_> konsole is your friend
[05:59] <Jucato> System Settings -> User Management
[06:00] <Jucato> jake_: ^^
[06:00] <jake_> ok sorry im a newbie
[06:00] <jake_> thanx for patience guys lol
[06:01] <duckdown> Can someone tell me what I need to do to watch certain types of videos in Firefox? (The missing plugin says I need application/x-mplayer2)
[06:02] <Jucato> duckdown: install mozilla-mplayer
[06:02] <duckdown> sweet! thanks
[06:02] <surgy>  i have a problem: i need to limit the available bandwidth to all computers on my network on both up and down streams. But the program has to be invisible and run from a single computer to limit the bandwidth on the other two
[06:02] <duckdown> err no such package
[06:02] <duckdown> is this through apt Jucato ?

[06:05] <igorjr> hi, which driver should i choose for my ati radeon?
[06:05] <jughead> How can I manage my autostarted apps in KDE?  I added beryl-manager (I can't remember how I did it) and I would like to remove it.
[06:05] <Admiral_Chicago> !ati | igorjr
[06:05] <ubotu> igorjr: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:05] <duckdown> i have this line in my sources.list: deb http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-backports main restricted universe multiverse   yet no mozilla-mplayer is found when i try to apt-get install
[06:05] <surgy> igorjr: ummm try the one udotu suggests
[06:06] <igorjr> k, thx
[06:06] <Admiral_Chicago> duckdown: have you done, sudo apt-get update?
[06:06] <duckdown> yes
[06:06] <surgy> yeah my step dad couldnt find it either
[06:06] <Admiral_Chicago> this is all in one line?
[06:06] <ahlalo_elyon> How would I go about getting all the information on Feisty (such as additions, bugfixes, etc)?  I've looked around the Ubuntu website, but I'm confused as to what to look for...
[06:06] <duckdown> Admiral_Chicago, is what all in one line?
[06:06] <duckdown> that thing I pasted? yes
[06:07] <mortici> is there any reason that alsamixer shows my device, shows its unmuted and work fine but still kmix can't detect it and there is no sound comming out?
[06:07] <surgy> ahlalo_elyon: maybe try the bleeding edge kubuntu repo?
[06:07] <Admiral_Chicago> that's the only line thing in your sources
[06:07] <ahlalo_elyon> surgy: Forgive me, I don't know how to check that...

[06:09] <jack_deltrino> how do i rip last.fm streams?
[06:10] <ahlalo_elyon> jack_deltrino: Try asking in #amarok if you can't get an answer here.
[06:10] <Admiral_Chicago> i don't think you can jack_deltrino
[06:10] <surgy> ahlalo_elyon: cant help
[06:10] <ahlalo_elyon> ok...thanks
[06:11] <jake_> guys did you experinced, playing last.fm at amarok but no sounds coming out, is there problem with my sound card?
[06:11] <jack_deltrino> ahlalo_elyon: alright, will do
[06:11] <jack_deltrino> jake_: possibly, or it could be that ALSA isn't setup properly as well
[06:12] <Jucato> duckdown: add the word "multiverse" at the end of lines 16 and 17. add it beside "universe"
[06:12] <jake_> but when i play adio cd, everything'sfine
[06:14] <jake_> how do setup the ALSA?
[06:14] <mortici_> jake_: were in the same boat
[06:15] <mortici_> i can't get my intel HD card to work on the install but it works fine on the LiveCD .... gah
[06:17] <LL_Hakaisou> can someone recommend me an ISO ripper?

[06:19] <duckdown> Jucato, great thanks alot mate, ill try that
[06:19] <thoreauputic> LL_Hakaisou: what do you mean?
[06:19] <tinchio_> mey be he means burner instead riper

[06:23] <Solid_Source> what there were problems?
[06:23] <LL_Hakaisou> yea, but it's mostly that my ram is going bad
[06:23] <LL_Hakaisou> i ordered 4 new identical sticks of 512 ram
[06:24] <LL_Hakaisou> it still has intermittent crashes, but i'm working on it
[06:25] <Solid_Source> hmm, interesting, I haven't had any problems
[06:26] <mortici> how can i downgrade the kernel to 2.6.17-10?
[06:27] <Solid_Source> from <IP_ADDRESS>?
[06:28] <Solid_Source> amd why? not that it matters, don't think you can

[06:42] <sampan> is there an easy way to check the MAC address of my network card on my desktop?
[06:42] <osiris> ifconfig in a term
[06:43] <sampan> thank you osiris  :)
[06:43] <osiris> yep
[06:43] <osiris> anyone here set up vsftp with read write access ?
[06:44] <osiris> the problem i am having is the ftp client wants to connect the user to their home directory instead of the ftp directory
[06:44] <osiris> the users home directory doesnt even exist
[06:45] <Solid_Source> this your server?
[06:45] <osiris> yes
[06:45] <lordkeiden_> how do i add stuff to start when kde starts?
[06:45] <Solid_Source> using gftp?
[06:45] <osiris> as the client to test, yes.
[06:46] <osiris> but ultimately it will be voip phones pointed there to get firmware, and update config files
[06:46] <Solid_Source> I meant are using GproFTPd? forgot about the client
[06:47] <osiris> the server is vsftpd

[06:48] <osiris> ok, let me ask you this
[06:48] <lordkeiden_> thanks Jucato
[06:48] <osiris> how do i define a users home dir
[06:49] <winux> how can i put aplications on kxdocker?
[06:49] <Solid_Source> well its really easy in GproFTPd...just define the directory for the FTP user to login to
[06:50] <lordkeiden_> what do i need to install to get the kernel config plugin for KDE Control Center?
[06:50] <osiris> no, not on the ftp level, but on a user level.  if i were to login via ssh for example, my home dir is what i log into.
[06:51] <Solid_Source> hmm sorry don't know that one
[06:53] <BeefotronX> what kind of graphics problem would cause Blender to crash X after a few minutes of use?
[06:53] <osiris> BeefotronX, bad video drivers
[06:54] <osiris> or a dying video card
[06:54] <BeefotronX> Maybe
[06:54] <osiris> what kind of card
[06:54] <BeefotronX> radeon 9600
[06:55] <BeefotronX> I think with fglrx it crashes X, with mesa blender just crashes by itself.
[06:55] <jake_> help again guys, i forgot the codelist for this, my adept says "You will not be able to change your system settings in any way (install, remove or upgrade software), because another process is using the packaging system database (probably some other Adept application or apt-get or aptitude). Please close the other application before using this one."
[06:56] <Gizmo48> Beef,  what is blender?
[06:56] <BeefotronX> 3d modeling/animation app
[06:57] <Gizmo48> So  graphics intensive....   heat could be your problem.  whens the last time you popped the case and blew out the cobwebs?
[06:57] <BeefotronX> A few weeks ago
[06:58] <Gizmo48> did any of the fans have play in the bearings?   did u chk that?
[06:58] <BeefotronX> yeah all the fans are good
[06:59] <lordkeiden_> what kde app will let me compile a new kernel?

[07:00] <BeefotronX> Well, I load up Blender, it works fine for a few minutes, then the screen just goes black and X restarts.

[07:00] <BeefotronX> Or, when I was using mesa, Blender just closes.
[07:01] <osiris> have you tried the drivers from ATI ?
[07:01] <BeefotronX> hmm
[07:01] <lordkeiden_> BeefotronX: after the crash, can you restart blender and run for the same amount of time each restart, or is it less and less time after each crash?
[07:02] <BeefotronX> About the same time
[07:02] <crackhead> question: what open source internet collaborative meeting projects/applications are there, that could replace or do what webex, netmeeting and others do?
[07:02] <Gizmo48> That sounds like software then, not hardware, BUT, when u popped the case did u re-seat the cards, mem, and bios chip
[07:03] <BeefotronX> I think I did that
[07:03] <lordkeiden_> BeefotronX: i would try another 3d intensive app to compare results, to help decide between driver and app issues.
[07:04] <Gizmo48> Then software
[07:05] <Gizmo48> lordk may have another angle 4 u to pursue
[07:05] <lordkeiden_> perhaps Google Earth, flying around the globe for longer that you can run Blender for, or beryl, spinning the cube around, od k3d
[07:05] <jake_> guys?

[07:06] <posingaspopular> jake_: i know your problem

[07:06] <jake_> lol
[07:06] <lordkeiden_> or Google Earth while running beryl

[07:06] <jake_> somebody gave it to i forgot it too
[07:07] <lordkeiden_> BeefotronX: after a simular amount of time?
[07:07] <BeefotronX> no
[07:07] <jake_> anybody guys please....
[07:07] <BeefotronX> The screensaver crashed immediately
[07:08] <Gizmo48> Oh, that cant be a good thing
[07:08] <lordkeiden_> i would look into alternative 3d drivers for your video card then...
[07:08] <osiris> how do you add a user to a group from the cli
[07:08] <BeefotronX> i'm downloading ati's drivers now
[07:08] <Gizmo48> is this something that just started happening?  Specifically, did you have a stable system, then monkey with it and get where u r now?
[07:09] <lordkeiden_> BeefotronX: are you on edgy?
[07:09] <BeefotronX> Edgy yeah
[07:10] <lordkeiden_> good ? Gizmo48
[07:10] <Gizmo48> Using the drivers meant for your card is always a good thing.   Crashes are NOT good :-)
[07:11] <lordkeiden_> BeefotronX:  did u see Gizmo48 last question?
[07:11] <BeefotronX> yeah
[07:11] <crackhead> what's the command to change your login on the irc?
[07:11] <BeefotronX> I think it was stable before
[07:11] <ravehanker> I installed kde on my ubuntu system a few days ago and Now, some of my keyboard Shorcuts don't work in Gnome.  But, once it was set up, it was every bit as good as on my nvidia lappy

[07:16] <Gizmo48> Beef
[07:17] <BeefotronX> yes i am on kubuntu
[07:17] <Gizmo48> Do you have the translucency/shadows checkbox checked in the KDE control module <translucency.?
[07:17] <BeefotronX> no
[07:17] <Gizmo48> Hmm...   Aint computin' fun?
[07:20] <eean> computer r0ck
[07:20] <lordkeiden_> before you install the ati drivers, did u just run the installer?
[07:21] <lordkeiden_> BeefotronX: or did you follow a howto from the ubuntu site?
[07:21] <Gizmo48> my final word then:    Load the latest commercial drivers for your card. /  Hook up with a local users groupthere in penn.

[08:04] <Huey> Jucato: the white background of my kde theme becomes gray
[08:04] <Jucato> it could also be affected by Beryl?
[08:05] <Huey> there do seem to be some weird interactions
[08:05] <Huey> for instance, katapult no longer launches with Alt+Space
[08:05] <Admiral_Chicago> i'd blame beryl
[08:06] <Huey> the strange thing is, i had it working before
[08:06] <Huey> kde and beryl together, i mean
[08:06] <Huey> er, katapult
