[03:38] <NotSure> it tells me "bash configure command not found"
[03:38] <peabody> CapaH have you searched the ubuntu community documentation and forums for that model mouse?
[03:38] <NotSure> jeees...
[03:38] <outl4w> i got a geforce 6600 ;)
[03:38] <jim> NotSure: or write your driver so it is placed in such a way that it isn't taken over
[03:38] <outl4w> nvidia
[03:38] <IdleOne> NotSure: the command is ./configure with the . and /
[03:38] <NotSure> wait
[03:38] <Arron> what is the name of that doc app, that you can put icons and programs to run on the desktop?
[03:39] <NotSure> so it has to be ./configure?
[03:39] <RequinB4> outl4w - i'm not insulting your intellgence here but did you run beryl-manger
[03:39] <CapaH> peabody yes
[03:39] <dwestendorf> i'm having some problems with a broken kernel update
[03:39] <ePax> What program is good for recording desktop?
[03:39] <IdleOne> NotSure: yes ./configure
[03:39] <jim> if he wrote the driver, he also established the build system
[03:39] <peabody> mbt: with that little ram, you're better off trying dsl
[03:39] <outl4w> :) in terminal ?
[03:39] <mbt> ePax gtk-recordmydesktop
[03:39] <dwestendorf> it' wont fix in synaptic
[03:39] <ePax> mtb: thnx.
[03:39] <RequinB4> outl4w - alt - f2 iirc
[03:39] <NotSure> nothing even for ./configure! There is only one file in my directory, the modififed hid-core.c
[03:39] <mbt> peabody Hrm.  Is DSL suitable enough for an end-user?
[03:39] <jim> IdleOne: there is something to be said for understanding the word "his" in the phrase "his driver" :)
[03:40] <IdleOne> jim: HIS as in he wrote it?
[03:40] <peabody> I hear people swear by it.  It's pretty minimal, but I played around with their live cd.  I liked it.
[03:40] <outl4w> i apt get it :)
[03:40] <NotSure> right.......... it is *MY* driver.... he he
[03:40] <jim> NotSure: I guess... did you write it?
[03:40] <NotSure> right..... i * WROTE* it.... he he he
[03:40] <IdleOne> NotSure: good luck buddy I dont know about writing no drivers
[03:40] <jim> so you do know about writing some drivers?
[03:41] <NotSure> how about compiling c files in directories with nothing else?
[03:41] <IdleOne> jim some but not all
[03:41] <mbt> peabody: alright, I will check into that.  I am setting up a system for someone else (relieving them of the burden of Win ME), and am finding that this is taking far longer than I expected, lol
[03:41] <NotSure> yee, jim.... *MY DRIVERS* WOWOWOOWW!
[03:41] <dwestendorf> this is what I get when I try to fix the broken packages http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/38606
[03:41] <outl4w> is drauf und nu ? :)
[03:41] <RequinB4> Does anyone know where I can find a nice changelog for gusty gibbon coming out next month
[03:41] <pjman> I just ran the latest kernel update (2.6.20-16-generic). My menu.lst was not modified automatically for the new kernel. Any ideas why?
[03:41] <peabody> 64 ain't even enough for Xubuntu really, you need at least 128.   DSL is the way to go.
[03:41] <pvl1> has anyone had any success with glest?
[03:41] <outl4w> it is installed :)
[03:42] <outl4w> and yet ?
[03:42] <dwestendorf> anyone?
[03:42] <jim> NotSure: ok, so you didn't write it? :)
[03:42] <peabody> mbt: that or if you're really desperate, Gentoo ;)
[03:42] <dino_> I'm having troubles getting my MX1000 to work when using dinoVo edge at the same time....... anyone?
[03:42] <NotSure> i wrote it by copying and modifying the usb-skeleton
[03:42] <peabody> but I figure the person's comp is old, so the compilation could take days...
[03:43] <NotSure> so,
[03:43] <CapaH> Is there anyone here who can tell me how to get this 6 button mouse to work ? I have a Saitek GM3200 -- it has some strange "mode" button on it, and two side buttons --- which appear to be useless. Can anyone help me on this?
[03:43] <outl4w> Couldn't initialize dbus. This should not happen!
[03:43] <vip3rousmango> anyone knwo what "has an x86 boot sector" is??
[03:43] <mbt> peabody, cool.  Well, I could if I had the knowledge to build a Gentoo system on mine and burn it and then move it to this.  Yeah, it would.
[03:43] <NotSure> i need this hid-core.c recompiled
[03:43] <RequinB4> outl4w - do you have an emerald in your toolbar on the top/bottom/side of the screen
[03:43] <outl4w> beryl: Plugin 'dbus':initDisplay failed
[03:43] <outl4w> beryl: Couldn't activate plugin 'dbus'
[03:43] <RequinB4> guess not
[03:43] <Sonicadvance1> I'm wondering, I have a new 5.1 system and my Rear speakers aren't working. Is there a way to remedy this?
[03:43] <NotSure> how can I get it recompiled, hah?
[03:43] <CapaH> Further, Can anyone tell me where in Ubuntu/how I can configure this mouse so certain buttons are the equivalent of hitting certain keyboard keys? like a certain side button is identical to hitting A on the keyboard?
[03:43] <RequinB4> outl4w - google your error message
[03:43] <NotSure> ./configure does not work
[03:43] <mbt> peabody, I am probably going to see if they can get a new system.  This would make a *great* monitor system or something that didn't require lots of CPU or RAM, but it's not good as a modern desktop.
[03:43] <dwestendorf> i'm taking that as a no....
[03:44] <NotSure> no make works because no makefile
[03:44] <peabody> CapaH: Unfortunately it's likely one of those things that if Google doesn't turn up much, chances are the support just isn't there in Xorg.
[03:44] <jim> NotSure: see if you can find a way to not have to change hid-core.c
[03:44] <outl4w> if i got with the mouse in the right upper corner my windows will move to other opsion
[03:44] <NotSure> no jim! HID takes over my driver!
[03:44] <mbt> Thanks for the advice!
[03:44] <CapaH> Everything works fine for this mouse except those side buttons and this "mode" thing whatever it is
[03:44] <outl4w> aaahhhh
[03:44] <NotSure> that is the problem!
[03:44] <outl4w> it works
[03:44] <outl4w> :)
[03:44] <outl4w> very much thx ;)
[03:44] <jim> find out why
[03:44] <NotSure> i need to modify HID
[03:44] <peabody> mbt: yeah, 256 is really the bare minimum for desktops these days.
[03:44] <Evanlec> CapaH, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto
[03:44] <NotSure> so i put my device in black list
[03:44] <NotSure> but now i need to compile it into ko
[03:44] <outl4w> this is the best help chat i have ever seen thx :)
[03:44] <CapaH> Thanks Evanlec
[03:44] <NotSure> so i can use insmod to insert into kernel
[03:45] <jim> if you know why, if you can find out why, then maybe your driver can specify to not use hid
[03:45] <RequinB4> outl4w - yeah I had to reconfigure my x server to run beryl, compared to that urs was simple :P
[03:45] <pvl1> Has anyone been able to install glest
[03:45] <mbt> peabody, I know I'd be in for a challenge; today, when 1 GB can still be hard to make happy when you really multitask.
[03:45] <mbt> s/know/knew
[03:45] <outl4w> hehe yes :)
[03:45] <jim> (after all... there are so many not-hid usb devices and drivers... they don't have to modify hid-core.c :)
[03:45] <outl4w> i will lern c++
[03:45] <outl4w> :)
[03:45] <Evanlec> CapaH, here's another one https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IntellimouseMousemanBackForwardButtons
[03:45] <jim> lernctoo
[03:45] <kwilliam> Is there a channel specifically for partitioning trouble?  I'm having all sorts of troubles.
[03:45] <peabody> mbt: 1gig is plenty for even the fancier Linux distros.  Vista eats for breakfast though :)
[03:45] <outl4w> wiki is my best friend ;)
[03:45] <Evanlec> CapaH, let me know if u do get it to work, cuz i never could figure it out
[03:46] <outl4w> and u :)
[03:46] <pjman> Any ideas why my menu.lst wasn't modified when I ran the latest kernel update?
[03:46] <jim> better you are at c, better you will be at building robust c++ classes
[03:46] <mbt> peabody, lol indeed.  1GB is alright, for non-developers, and maybe even light development.  I find that I really need more than that, though.    :-P
[03:46] <yumbaman> isn't vista with aero like 768mb on a fresh install?
[03:46] <kwilliam> I'm getting a "The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. " error from fsck.
[03:46] <jim> (-Allan Holub, probably paraphrased)
[03:47] <kwilliam> How do I fix the partition so I can boot my computer again?  Any ideas?
[03:47] <brownie17> NotSure, how can you be smart enough to write your own driver but dumb enough to be in love iwth idiocracy? (kidding)
[03:47] <godzirra> Anyone about that can help me get my nvidia card working?  i've got x working -without- the nvidia card... I'm having trouble getting it to work with.
[03:47] <kennobaka> kwilliam: `fsck -r $drive` is repair mode
[03:48] <IdleOne> I hate when ppl come in ask a question wait 3 minutes and leave. AFTER I found a link with the solution
[03:48] <NotSure> Brownie, Idiocracy will become CULT movie like Scarface
[03:48] <peabody> mbt: eh I find 1gig enough for my needs and I'm a comp-sci major
[03:48] <zzoouu> ?
[03:48] <kwilliam> kennobaka: that didn't help.
[03:48] <NotSure> just wait
[03:48] <zzoouu> oh
[03:48] <kwilliam> kennobaka: still error about super block.
[03:48] <NotSure> i know critics did not like it
[03:48] <NotSure> but it politically incorrect to like Mike Judge's humor
[03:48] <jim> did critics like Aaron Russo's last movie?
[03:48] <kennobaka> I'm not sure the magic options to make it restore from another block (or if that's just a ufs thing)
[03:48] <mbt> peabody, Nice.  It's enough, with some swappage.  At least on a 64-bit system.  But I always have hundreds of things going on, too.
[03:49] <NotSure> what is the last movie by Russo?
[03:49] <jim> "America: Freedom to Fascism"
[03:49] <peabody> mbt: it always depends on what you do.
[03:49] <mbt> peabody, it's certainly *nowhere* near as bad as Vista.
[03:49] <kwilliam> kennobaka: Well, I need to restore it somehow.
[03:49] <jim> Russo produced and directed it
[03:49] <kwilliam> kennobaka: I can mount the partitions, but I can't boot for some reason.
[03:50] <jim> I'm trying to figure out if he was a nutcase spouting off all this stuff or if it's real
[03:50] <kennobaka> is the partition marked as bootable?
[03:50] <nexttwo> !restart
[03:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about restart - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:50] <mbt> Alright, well, I am out of here.  I am not even in X and this system is paging in and out and all that just installinb packages.  Later!
[03:50] <kwilliam> kennobaka: I don't know.  Gparted hangs every time I try to run it.
[03:50] <kwilliam> kennobaka: Is there another way to find out beside gparted?
[03:50] <kennobaka> kwilliam: tried using parted?
[03:51] <jim> other movies he produced... "The Rose" (bette midler), "Trading Places" (eddie murphy, dan ackroyd)
[03:51] <kwilliam> kennobaka: no, but I'll give that a shot.  (I didn't know about it)

[03:54] <NotSure> ok, i ll go see if i can straighten out this hid-core.c problem, probably would require kernel recompilation but i hope i can do something to avoid it
[03:54] <philipe> and i have to put apci=off in gruub
[03:54] <mykhul> thanks i'll check it out
[03:54] <tuntun>  Hi. I want to insert a custiom date foemat in openorffce...
[03:54] <outl4w> thx for help n8 :)
[03:55] <philipe> but not is everey that he reconhce the modem
[03:55] <kwilliam> kennobaka: Alright, I've set the boot flag, but that won't fix the superblock problem will it?
[03:55] <philipe> and i need to rebbot my pc every time
[03:55] <macd> mykhul, of if your using ubuntu not kubuntu, you can use the built in gnome-bt client, but first you have to unhide the menu item, Click system --> preferences --> main menu, then under internet menu.
[03:55] <kennobaka> kwilliam: I doubt it, but if there were a superblock error, I don't think it would let you mount
[03:55] <tuntun>  Hi. I want to insert a custiom date foemat in openorffce...
[03:55] <mykhul> uh oh im running gnome
[03:56] <runescape1143> when i try to access the man pages in section 3 (eg. man 3 printf) i get no manual entry for printf... how do i set it up so that i can get this working
[03:56] <peabody> philipe: Not sure I understand your english...you're saying you need to do something to get your modem working everytime you reboot your computer and you want to see if you can make that automatic?
[03:56] <kwilliam> kennobaka: hmm, maybe it's a false alarm, or a wrong command or something.
[03:56] <macd> mykhul, then youll want to use the gnome-bt client.
[03:56] <peabody> runescape1143: I answered your question, scroll up
[03:57] <runescape1143> thanx
[03:57] <kennobaka> mykhul: rtorrent is terminal-based (and far superior, imho)

[04:09] <peabody> tuntun: It might still be a bug, you could get an account on http://launchpad.net/ and file a bug report.  From the way you describe your problem, it sounds like oo isn't doing something it's clearly supposed to
[04:09] <scyon> hou5ton, it is likely that you don't have the codec installed for it.
[04:09] <IdleOne> sandy: then give me the url please

[04:10] <pwn> peabody: I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my Laptop. When I booted with the Live CD, first I got an error saying "Unable to allocate memory resource", and then 2 seconds later, it showed the Ubuntu loading screen. After that, it said "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" and waits for me to type something. I asked on ubuntuforums.org and someone told me to hit F6 and add break=top to the beginning of ...
[04:10] <pwn> ... the options list, go into command prompt, and type modprobe piix, and then type exit. I did that. But it said unable to start the X server and threw me back into the command prompt. Then I did dmesg | tail like aleka said, and it says the sonypi command failed at drivers/char/sonypic.c : sonypi_call2 (line 659), and another error of the same kind, but at line 646
[04:10] <peabody> RequinB4: Don't know what codecs WMC uses, but my guess is that they're likely to be in the w32codecs package.

[04:14] <Adylas> kennobaka: Hello ! The point is keeping the resolution. Just incrase the texte size. I know that Xorg use a surface in mm.

[04:15] <pwn> peabody: Any suggestions?
[04:15] <peabody> pwn: I'm googling right now, but not turning up much...
[04:16] <ldsudduth> !ask I was asked to update the kernel to 2.20-16 tonite. I'm running the nvidia-glx drivers, but under the new kernel X won't start. Any thoughts?
[04:16] <peabody> pwn: Whenever the live cd has boot problems it usually means its time to break out kernel parameters.
[04:16] <ajt> do I want 7.04-desktop-amd64.iso to run on a intel core 2 duo?
[04:16] <peabody> pwn: noacpi, etc.

[04:16] <peabody> pwn: Not my forte since I've been lucky to have all my systems boot straight from the cd.

[04:17] <ajt> tuntun: it's a 64bit processor tho? isn't i386 just for 32bit?
[04:17] <reya276> so no one knows how to update "hid-core.c"
[04:18] <pwn> peabody: Could it be because of my graphics card? It says no display devices found when I type startx
[04:18] <scyon> ajt, try going to http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[04:18] <peabody> pwn: more than likely, do you know what the card is on that laptop
[04:18] <peabody> pwn: I found your ubuntu forums post on google :)

[04:19] <IdleOne> ajt: stability is fine just see alot of ppl having issues with 64bit
[04:20] <kennobaka> Adylas: ah, I misunderstood the problem, I think
[04:20] <peabody> pwn: Did the install work, or is that you can't even run the install?
[04:20] <pwn> peabody: I can't install, I'm stuck at the command promopt
[04:21] <godzirra> Anyone about that can help me get my nvidia card working?  i've got x working -without- the nvidia card... I'm having trouble getting it to work with.
[04:21] <peabody> pwn: have you tried the alternate cd?  It installs via a text based interface.  Once the installation takes place, you might have better luck with getting x up and running by installing the nvidia drivers

[04:24] <eyemean> hello everyone
[04:24] <eyemean> hope u are ll well
[04:24] <IdleOne> Jack_Sparrow: issue is not mine but . when running sudo apt-get update that error is output and also cannot seem to open any sites with firefox but can connect to irc. any ideas?
[04:25] <eyemean> quick question pls, im using ubuntu 7.04 gnome, but updates sometimes come for kde, should i accept the kde updates?
[04:25] <pwn> Is there any other way I can start the X server? default display or something..
[04:25] <Jack_Sparrow> IdleOne: that generally means they have two package managers open at the same time..
[04:25] <Nighthawk420> eyemean, yes it will be alright.
[04:25] <scyon> eyemean, this is normal if you have installed any apps from kde.
[04:26] <IdleOne> Jack_Sparrow: hmmmm . killall synaptic? then try terminal again?
[04:26] <Jack_Sparrow> IdleOne: It might be a dns problem..  have him type in the address of google or some other and see if firefox connects to it
[04:26] <eyemean> ok thank you nighthawk and scyon
[04:26] <eyemean> much appreciated
[04:26] <peabody> eyemean: yes that'l normal, if it's an update it means that package is already on your system.  There's quite a bit of KDE stuff in normal ubuntu because some people like to run the KDE apps such as k3b
[04:26] <scyon> np :)
[04:26] <eyemean> cheers peabody
[04:27] <Jack_Sparrow> IdleOne: Also ask if (s)he ever ran automatix or envy...  either can cause bad problems..
[04:28] <IdleOne> Jack_Sparrow: the problem came when i was try to install mysql and i hibernated the system
[04:28] <eyemean> i love using ubuntu for everything now, but when it comes to using messeger or skype for audio conversations i have to go to windows again
[04:28] <eyemean> problem with mic being recognised for some reason
[04:28] <IdleOne> Jack_Sparrow: and when i started the sytem it ask me to restart the system and i restart the system without closing the firefox and synaptic and the problem started
[04:29] <Jack_Sparrow> time for me to go play, good luck with that..
[04:29] <peabody> eyemean: Builtin, or mic jack?
[04:29] <eyemean> usb mic peabody
[04:30] <peabody> brand and make?
[04:30] <eyemean> its logitech
[04:30] <peabody> eyemean: specific model?
[04:30] <eyemean> but not sure of brand as it has no model number on it
[04:31] <boola_> i need to install unrar but i first need to have Multiverse Repository enabled.. how do i enable it?
[04:31] <eyemean> one sec will try find old box, sorry

[04:52] <dstadulis> I think one of my HDD is failing and I need to back it up quickly, I have an external usb drive but I am having trouble mounting it, it's /dev/sdf, should I use the command mount /dev/sdf1 /media/usb_backup ?

[04:53] <musikgoat> k thanks heguru
[04:53] <heguru> musikgoat: blacklist [module name]

[04:54] <sn0> dstadulis you can check with "fdisk -l" to see what the external hd is found as, if you have disabled auto mounting then yes , assuming /media/usb_backup exists, then it should mount fine

[04:56] <PThomas> heguru: well I'm not sure what it is set at default
[04:56] <PThomas> but it's only the middle of my screen, and i want it pretty much towards the edges.

[04:56] <jetsaredim> can I run vmware images under kvm?
[04:56] <heguru> PThomas: I mean what is the resolution of your monitor/LCD?
[04:56] <Puppy_> does anyone know how to record a live stream tv channel? stream tuner (I think) is for audio streams. What I want to do is to schedule a live stream recording in mplayer or vlc.
[04:56] <heguru> PThomas: you have to add a vga=xxx (where xxx is the resolution you want) based on your screen size
[04:56] <PThomas> heguru: Well I can run 1024x768 but i tihnk its at that 468x... or whaetver.
[04:57] <PThomas> heguru: where can I change it, or will i have to enter that everytime of boot?
[04:57] <heguru> PThomas: for 1024x768 add vga=790 to kernel boot parameters

[04:58] <musikgoat> will disabling acpi_cpufreq cause undesirable results?
[04:58] <Wolf23> can someone help me please
[04:58] <heguru> PThomas: i suggest you first test it during boot when grub is loading press ESC, press 'e' to edit, on the kernel like add vga=790 and then press 'b' to boot
[04:58] <PThomas> then if it works?
[04:58] <heguru> PThomas: if the resolution is fine, you can make it permanent by adding vga=790 to /boot/grub/menu.list

[05:00] <heguru> Wolf23: is the windows disk NTFS?
[05:00] <Madsy> Wolf23: I guess your Windows partition is NTFS?
[05:00] <Wolf23> heguru yes
[05:00] <Madsy> It is probably mounted as read-only
[05:00] <heguru> Wolf23: if yes you need to mount it with ntfs-3g
[05:00] <Madsy> For your own safety.
[05:00] <Wolf23> madsy yes
[05:00] <CoasterMaster> Wolf23, if you want to write to NTFS, you need a special driver, ntfs-3g....you can install it with sudo apt-get install ntfs-config
[05:00] <heguru> Wolf23: type: sudo ntfs-3g /dev/[windowsdisk]  /mnt

[05:00] <buttercups> puppy you can try tunapie

[05:02] <astro76> dissection, you need the alternate cd to install on raid
[05:02] <heguru> Madsy: as of feisty they are marked as stable
[05:02] <dissection> :|
[05:03] <kennobaka> tehquickness: you can use mv in a for loop
[05:03] <Javid> tehquickness, you want some kind of mass renaming utility
[05:03] <Javid> or a script
[05:03] <tehquickness> hmm ok
[05:03] <dissection> astro76: If I install it on either of my drives, will I lose my existing OS?
[05:03] <astro76> dissection, I'm sure it would destroy your raid, obviously
[05:04] <tehquickness> kennobaka so if the files were  like [music] -filename.mp3  and [music] -filename2.mp3 is there a way to just remove the [music] - from all the names?
[05:04] <stefan__> Hello all .. i`m using Xubuntu 7.04 .. and i don't find sound card drivers for my CM6501 device .. anybody can help me?
[05:04] <dstadulis> sn0: thanks for the help I got it to mount
[05:04] <Agent_bob> if anyone remembers me asking about a sound issue, namely "sound works but it's too quiet to hear, and some of the adjustments in alsamixer snap right back to the preset defaults"   i have an update.   i was using non-powered speakers, it seems that some chipsets that use ac'97 drivers require power amplified speakers,  i have confirmed this on two seperate boxes.   after pluging powered speakers in the adjustments stay put
[05:05] <mariocesar_bo> Hi all, there is any chanel or comunity to learn programming C on Ubuntu or Linux?
[05:05] <stefan__> alsa is not working at me :|
[05:05] <tehquickness> I guess I would need to use regex expressions then?
[05:05] <Javid> mariocesar_bo, try #c#
[05:06] <Wolf23> CoasterMaster:  ok i install the ntfs-config and then what can i do
[05:06] <Montaro> Can anyone assist in configuring xorg on Ubuntu gutsy to display *ONLY* on a tv (via s-video (or composite)) on an S3 Savage3D card? I've tried every combination of xorg.conf I can think of and its still not working :( I'm actually flat out getting it to display on the tv at all.. I did have it, then I broke it, and now i've lost it heh
[05:06] <musikgoat> Javid: C# and C are quite different
[05:06] <heguru> tehquickness: you can use awk with for loop
[05:06] <Javid> I know, but it's closer to what he wants than here
[05:06] <musikgoat> ture
[05:06] <musikgoat> *true
[05:06] <CoasterMaster> Wolf23, go to Applications -> System Tools -> NTFS Configuration
[05:06] <Wolf23> heguru:  Failed to access '/dev/[windowsdisk] ': No such file or directory
[05:06] <mariocesar_bo> Javid: thanks, but I am learning C
[05:06] <kennobaka> tehquickness: I'd write a perl script for it, probably
[05:06] <bluebanana> musikgoat, thanks. Most digicams use "Mini B" yes?
[05:06] <tehquickness> hmm ok
[05:07] <XanKriegor> macd: hm... its not work. I edit /etc/security/group.conf and add there *;*;*;Al00-2400;lpadmin... but gnome-cups-add required sudo
[05:07] <musikgoat> bluebanana: yes, most "client" devices use B or mini B
[05:07] <Wolf23> CoasterMaster:  ok and then
[05:07] <heguru> Wolf23: replace [windowsdisk]  with the device pointing to your windows partition. something like /dev/sdb1 etc
[05:07] <Javid> hey, anyone know how to edit the display resolutions xserver can use? the alt installer lets you pick but I used the normal one, and don't really want to reinstall
[05:07] <CoasterMaster> Wolf23, then log out and log in again
[05:07] <macd> XanKriegor, thats not where you make the change.
[05:07] <macd> XanKriegor, I said /etc/group .
[05:07] <Montaro> Can anyone help configuring xorg for tv out on Ubuntu?
[05:08] <gautada> Stupid question: How do a quickly view a README.gz without decompressing?  In gentoo I used to just less /../README.gz.  In ubuntu it coomplains that iti is binanry which of course it is...
[05:08] <musikgoat> man acpi_cpufreq
[05:08] <Fezzler> Hard Drive crashed.  Click Click Click.  Reinstalled.  How do I install themes off Gnomelook again?  Download and drop on themes app?
[05:09] <macd> Fezzler, yessir.
[05:09] <Fezzler> Thanks.
[05:09] <dissection> astro76: If I install dmraid, will it still mess up my Windows installation?
[05:09] <heguru> gautada: well even in ubuntu that should work, but you can try gunzip -c README.gz | less
[05:10] <macd> gautada, zless isntead of less.
[05:10] <gautada> heguru: Thanks, must be something wrong with the open-iscsi readme.
[05:10] <Fezzler> Anyone recommend an OSX lookalike theme?
[05:10] <ubuntu> hey guys i have really big problem, i was trying to install beryl using a guide online and i think i screwed up one of the conf files so now my ubuntu won't load up i just get an Xdesktop error

[05:13] <geezone> how can I see what version  of ubuntu I am running from the command line..
[05:13] <NemesisD> hi all, trying to work with a tape drive (over ssh for that matter), i want to at least get a listing of the files on it, mt -r /dev/st0 status looks fine but whenever i try to do anything with tar i get an I/O error

[05:14] <Wolf23> *same
[05:14] <CoasterMaster> Wolf23, did you enable the Write access for NTFS drives?  (and restart)
[05:14] <Wolf23> CoasterMaster:  yes but i make logout not restart
[05:14] <CoasterMaster> Wolf23, try restarting
[05:14] <tehquickness> well, nvm there is no sense in reinventing the wheel, I just searched the repository and for a program that does it for me
[05:14] <Wolf23> ok
[05:16] <Balistic22> Is there a way i can restore my ubuntu to default settings
[05:16] <Balistic22>  hey guys i have really big problem, i was trying to install beryl using a guide online and i think i screwed up one of the conf files so now my ubuntu won't load up i just get an Xdesktop erro
[05:16] <mage> is there a livecd out for 7.10 yet? I've burned and misplaced 7.04 lots ;)
[05:16] <jurgentje> mage: only in Release Candidate
[05:16] <jurgentje> not concidered stable yet
[05:17] <mage> well all it needs to do is boot and not die long enough to run dbootstrap ;)
[05:17] <heguru> Balistic22: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:17] <Inferno> How would I go about getting my dual monitor setup to work? My main LCD works of course, but my secondary one doesn't show up.
[05:17] <Balistic22> heguru, so if i made a stupid really big error i can redo it by using that command
[05:17] <macd> Pelo, the dreaded vista locking the MBR?
[05:17] <mage> Pelo: dragondrop things to external hd
[05:17] <mage> let him restore it ;)
[05:18] <mage> actually i'll just go ahead and join windows
[05:19] <Pelo> mage, just a 1+ year system with a lot of messing about on it,  I'M gonna have to use my own second internal hdd for backup
[05:19] <Balistic22> heguru, will that really help
[05:19] <vanjuggler> I just installed the latest mythbuntu, and I'm having trouble getting the nvidia driver to work with my geforce 3 Ti 200.  The screen comes up blank after a reboot, and I see a kernel dump on an ssh console
[05:19] <vanjuggler> any ideas?
[05:19] <Pelo> mage,  join me in #pelo
[05:20] <Pelo> !nvidia | vanjuggler
[05:20] <mage> jurgentje: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/gutsy/tribe-5/ thats the right place to look, yes?
[05:20] <ubotu> vanjuggler: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:20] <heguru> Balistic22: that will reconfigure X to the defaults
[05:20] <Wolf23> CoasterMaster:  back, :( the same error friend
[05:20] <Balistic22> sweet you rock

[05:23] <PureEvilGeek> ha wow never had that happen before
[05:25] <Madpilot> spaz, don't add to the mess, please
[05:25] <macd> weeeee
[05:26] <spaz> madpilot: i don't think there's much i can do for that
[05:26] <spaz> lol
[05:26] <spaz> :-p
[05:26] <lnxsmith> anyone knows can help me?
[05:27] <mssever> lnxsmith: We can't help you until we know what your problem is
[05:27] <spaz> unf
[05:27] <lnxsmith> j/k
[05:27] <spaz> bbl when the mess is cleared out
[05:27] <lnxsmith> i can speak english
[05:27] <Tokorona> Arg.. of course.
[05:27] <Tokorona> My specific version of the wireless dongle isn't supported..
[05:27] <lnxsmith> wow there's a lot of poeple coming in and out in here
[05:28] <lnxsmith> was there a netsplit?
[05:28] <uBpTru7h> Dang!
[05:28] <Tokorona> Okay, maybe I should ask to  confirm this
[05:29] <uBpTru7h> That is so much toruble you have to be registered to talk
[05:29] <Tokorona> Is there any reason why a Linksys WUSB54G wouldn't work in Ndiswrapper?
[05:29] <uBpTru7h> I tried 3 different nicks of mine
[05:29] <uBpTru7h> and none of the passwords were correct
[05:29] <uBpTru7h> Anyway
[05:29] <CapaH> Question, how do I change it so that if Thumb1/Thumb2 is pressed that it is the same as if Button3 was pressed? I changed imwheelrc to say this: None, Thumb1, Button3   --- and None, Thumb2, Button3 --- then I restarted X, and NO difference.. ?
[05:29] <godzirra> Anyone about that can help me get my nvidia card working?  i've got x working -without- the nvidia card... I'm having trouble getting it to work with.
[05:29] <uBpTru7h> How would i get my dual monitor setup working in Ubuntu? Only one monitor does anything.
[05:30] <mssever> Tokorona: USB modems require drivers, which generally aren't available for Linux
[05:30] <TuTUXG> my feisty on laptop acts wired, everytime i restart/cold boot, there is a process named udevd running on background and uses a lot of cpu, after i kill it, cpu usage immediately drops back, anyone knows how that happens?
[05:30] <lnxsmith> Tokorona: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=188573
[05:30] <bruenig> udev is pretty important
[05:31] <Geoffrey2> I installed vlc via synaptic, yet it doesn't appear as an option under "Open with other application"
[05:31] <psychohuman> .
[05:31] <Tokorona> Well, lnxsmith. I'n not even at that step
[05:31] <Tokorona> I've got the v2 (I have a v2.1 usb device) drivers installed.
[05:32] <Tokorona> And lsusb will show it (or cat /proc/bus/usb/devices)
[05:32] <Tokorona> But it's not a recognized device
[05:32] <lnxsmith> Tokorona: you first have to install ndiswrapper
[05:32] <Tokorona> dmesg has this one line "usb device chose 0 configuration (out of 1)
[05:32] <Tokorona> It's installed.
[05:32] <lnxsmith> then install the drivers for the specific wireless card
[05:32] <mssever> Tokorona: And there's no way to connect it via ethernet?
[05:32] <overclucker> *sigh*
[05:32] <Tokorona> Nope
[05:33] <lnxsmith> Tokorona: did you install the drivers for that card
[05:33] <lnxsmith> ?
[05:33] <Tokorona> Yes.
[05:33] <mssever> Tokorona: My bad, I thought you were talking about a router
[05:33] <Tokorona> I have WUSB54Gv2 (and v1, in case it was looking for something else) drivers isntalled
[05:33] <bruenig> TuTUXG, you probably don't want to kill udevd, just saying
[05:33] <psychohuman> quick question...i have just installed ubuntu i386, but have no sound - however i just had x64 yesterday and the sound worked perfectly---any ideas?
[05:33] <Kevsthabest> is there a way to get the text based installer running of the live cd?
[05:33] <lnxsmith> and you installed them using the ndiswrapper install command
[05:33] <D4N`> Hi
[05:33] <Tokorona> Yes.
[05:34] <bruenig> Kevsthabest, no
[05:34] <mssever> Kevsthabest: You have to use the alternate install CD for that
[05:34] <Kevsthabest> bah.. thanks guys..
[05:34] <psychohuman> can anyone see this?
[05:34] <Tokorona> yes
[05:34] <Kevsthabest> psychohuman: nope
[05:35] <uBpTru7h> Yes, psychohuman
[05:35] <Wolf23> CoasterMaster:  i try but i didnot understand and i cant do it :(
[05:35] <lnxsmith> Tokorona: does the command ifconfig show anything ?
[05:35] <psychohuman> oh ok
[05:35] <overclucker> no one can see
[05:35] <psychohuman> just wasn't sure if i did it correctly
[05:35] <Chiraporn> I recently upgraded to the gutsy pre-release, but the upgrade got messed up. A complete reinstall doesnt recognize my rt2500 wireless, even though the rt61 (and dependent) modules are inserted on boot. Another issue is that Totem wont play DVDs, complaining about the codecs, even though libdvdscc is installed. Any help? (I realize its alpha...)
[05:35] <Tokorona> No (except for lo and eth0)
[05:35] <garcian> hello
[05:35] <lnxsmith> hmm
[05:35] <TuTUXG> bruenig, ok, but y it uses so much cpu? it didnt happened before
[05:35] <psychohuman> hi
[05:35] <lnxsmith> Tokorona: are you using 64bit?
[05:35] <Flannel> Chiraporn: #ubuntu+1 for Gutsy support, thanks
[05:36] <Tokorona> No, but I suspect I know what's wrong
[05:36] <bruenig> TuTUXG, it shouldn't be using much cpu but you really don't want to be killing it as it is kind of what manages everything in /dev
[05:36] <garcian> i recently changed my vgamode in menu.lst to 791 because i like 1024 by 768 better than the default command line mode. now i get the Saving VESA State freezup thing
[05:36] <Wolf23> heguru: Failed to access '/dev/disk1': No such file or directory :(
[05:36] <garcian> is there any way to fix that, other than setting my menu.lst back the way it was?
[05:36] <psychohuman> so does anyone have an idea about my sound issue, i have a soundblaster card
[05:36] <Chiraporn> Thanks
[05:36] <TuTUXG> bruenig, ok, so there is something wrong with my mounted devices?
[05:37] <amidaniel> psychohuman: What's the problem?
[05:37] <D4N`> unsure
[05:37] <psychohuman> ..."uick question...i have just installed ubuntu i386, but have no sound - however i just had x64 yesterday and the sound worked perfectly---any ideas?"...
[05:37] <Tokorona> I'm betting that I don't have gutsy installed.
[05:37] <bruenig> TuTUXG, no that wouldn't cause the cpu to go out of control
[05:37] <Tokorona> And I downloaded the wrong images.
[05:37] <Tokorona> er, packages.
[05:37] <lnxsmith> psychohuman: check that your mixers are turned up
[05:37] <heguru> Wolf23: you have to find out the device name for your windows partition! and its not disk1. try: sudo sfdisk -l /dev/sda
[05:38] <amidaniel> psychohuman: Run ALSA and make sure you've got sound turned on on the right devices
[05:38] <garcian> psychohuman: do you have a via ac97 sound card? those have problems all the time
[05:38] <heguru> Wolf23: and tell me if you see anyline ending with NTFS
[05:38] <amidaniel> psychohuman: Also check System Preferences / Sound and makes sure it's set to the correct devices
[05:38] <TuTUXG> bruenig, i thought about that, since i edited the fstab to automount some cd images at startup, but after i edited it back, it still acts the same
[05:38] <lnxsmith> this is a crazy channel, too many people bouncing in and out
[05:38] <garcian> yes
[05:38] <amidaniel> lnxsmith: Yeah, it gets that way :)
[05:38] <psychohuman> ok, i will check
[05:39] <psychohuman> yes, i ave ac97
[05:39] <garcian> and does anyone know how to fix the Saving VESA State bug?
[05:39] <lnxsmith> i dont even use ubuntu and heard this place was bad, so i came to check it out :)
[05:39] <psychohuman> have*
[05:39] <mssever> lnxsmith: I disabled join/part messages....less annoying
[05:39] <overclucker> Wolf23, i don't think you will be able to see anything in dev, if you are logged in on a windows computer,
[05:39] <TuTUXG> bruenig, but not everytime tho, if i do cold boot, sometime it's just fine (but sometimes not)
[05:39] <Wolf23> heguru:  /dev/sda: No such file or directory ,sfdisk: cannot open /dev/sda for reading
[05:39] <lnxsmith> mssever: yeah that's probably a good idea
[05:39] <heguru> Wolf23: try: sudo sfdisk -l /dev/hda
[05:39] <Javid> hey, anyone know how to edit the display resolutions xserver can use? the alt installer lets you pick but I used the normal one, and don't really want to reinstall
[05:40] <psychohuman> brb
[05:40] <bruenig> TuTUXG, not much to go on in your descriptions, see if there is something different in the times it is bad from the times it is good. but in any sense, udevd is important
[05:40] <garcian> psychohuman: type alsamixer and turn all the DXS down
[05:40] <garcian> and make sure your volume is up
[05:40] <getnthevan4candy> i'm burning the iso for this thing right now, and i'm about to install it on my gateway laptop... any last words of wisdom?
[05:40] <mssever> Javid: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:40] <garcian> i have ac97 and it has some DXS feature that screws up the sound
[05:40] <lnxsmith> Javid: look up stuff for xorg.conf
[05:40] <Wolf23> heguru:  Disk /dev/hda: cannot get geometry,Disk /dev/hda: 0 cylinders, 0 heads, 0 sectors/track,sfdisk: ERROR: sector 0 does not have an msdos signature
[05:40] <TuTUXG> bruenig, is there any log file i can check?
[05:40] <Sajes> I need help. When I went to install the Nvidia driver.. it like.. ate my xorg.conf file or something.
[05:40] <Wolf23> heguru:  /dev/hda: unrecognized partition table type, no partition found
[05:40] <heguru> Javid: System -> Preferences -> Screen Resolution
[05:40] <Javid> fanks
[05:41] <bruenig> TuTUXG, dmesg perhaps I think /var/log/messages but I am not sure exactly what to be looking for
[05:41] <ozzloy> " gtk/gtk.h: No such file or directory" what do i need to install?
[05:41] <garcian> lol getting help in here is like asking for help on the hindenburg
[05:41] <mssever> Sajes: Does sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg do anything for you?
[05:41] <getnthevan4candy> and out of curiousity, there's no need to install a wireless driver on 6.06?
[05:41] <overclucker> Wolf23, what is sfdisk?
[05:41] <mssever> Sajes: or is the package name xorg-xserver? I don't remember
[05:42] <Wolf23> overclucker:  heguru gave me that
[05:42] <heguru> overclucker: type: whatis sfdisk
[05:42] <TuTUXG> bruenig, or could it be some problem with drivers? i manually installed the latest nv driver few days ago
[05:42] <mssever> getnthevan4candy: Depends on your wireless card
[05:42] <bruenig> not it has nothing to do with nvidia driver
[05:42] <garcian> I changed my command line resolution to 1024 by 768 and now it freezes up on Saving VESA State
[05:43] <garcian> anyone know how to fix this?
[05:43] <TuTUXG> bruenig, um.. im confusing...
[05:43] <getnthevan4candy> i read the wireless guide, and it has my card on it, except in the guide, it says l at the end, and on my card, it doesn't.
[05:43] <Nauraushaun> Any chance of me being able to hook up my Lexmark printer/scanner/photocopier up to Ubuntu?
[05:43] <heguru> Wolf23: type:  mount | grep " / "
[05:43] <mssever> garcian: You mean in GRUB?
[05:43] <garcian> yes
[05:43] <garcian> in menu.lst
[05:43] <mssever> garcian: So, now you can't boot?
[05:43] <heguru>  Wolf23: and tell me what do you get
[05:43] <Wolf23> heguru:  /dev/hdb4 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[05:43] <garcian> yes
[05:43] <garcian> i set it to vgamode=791
[05:44] <heguru> Wolf23: ok, now try: sudo sfdisk -l /dev/hdb
[05:44] <mssever> garcian: Boot the LiveCD, and find and fix your menu.list
[05:44] <heguru> Wolf23: and tell me if you find any line ending with NTFS
[05:44] <mssever> garcian: Then chroot to your install directory and run sudo update-grub
[05:44] <demon_spork> why is seamonkey not in the ubuntu repos?
[05:44] <garcian> did that
[05:44] <garcian> wait

[05:45] <garcian> you mean change it back the way it was?
[05:45] <garcian> i want to have a 1024 by 768 command line
[05:45] <mssever> garcian: For now...at least you'll be able to boot
[05:45] <heguru> Wolf23: ok now type: sudo ntfs-3g /dev/hdb1 /mnt
[05:45] <TuTUXG> bruenig, i just typed dmseg and i notice this : QoS Error need to parse QOS_PARAMETER IE
[05:45] <garcian> well i already know i can change it back
[05:45] <mssever> garcian: Or, you can experiment
[05:45] <Tokorona> anyway, got a method that I think might work.
[05:45] <Tokorona> I'll reboot and try again. >_>
[05:45] <mssever> garcian: Oh, in that case, I don't know what to tell you
[05:45] <heguru> Wolf23: to access your windows files now press ALT+F2 and type /mnt
[05:45] <garcian> hmm
[05:46] <garcian> i always have a problem that nobody else has lol
[05:46] <mssever> garcian: Me too :)
[05:46] <TuTUXG> bruenig, or could it be something wrong with bluetooth? since i recently reinstalled gnome-bluetooth
[05:46] <Wolf23> heguru:  yes it opens a window, now what can i do
[05:46] <heguru> Wolf23: do you see your windows files?
[05:46] <garcian> well, no 1024 by 768 commandline then
[05:47] <heguru> Wolf23: you should be able to read and write
[05:47] <Wolf23> heguru:  yes i can see them before, but i want to copy from linux to windows folder
[05:47] <mssever> garcian: My laptop used to be 1042x768 on thecolnsole, then when I upgraded to Feisty, it reverted to 800x600
[05:47] <heguru> Wolf23: you can copy as well now
[05:47] <heguru> Wolf23: just select any file from linux and paste here
[05:48] <Nauraushaun> Could I hook up my printer to Ubuntu? Possible?
[05:48] <Wolf23> heguru:  wait
[05:48] <mssever> garcian: I don't like it, but I don't work on the console enough to care
[05:48] <mssever> Nauraushaun: What brand is it?
[05:48] <Scunizi> Nauraushaun, what's your printer..
[05:48] <Nauraushaun> Lexmark
[05:48] <Nauraushaun> X1100
[05:48] <mssever> Nauraushaun: Probably not
[05:49] <Nauraushaun> Great.
[05:49] <mssever> Nauraushaun: www.linuxprinting.org
[05:49] <Geoffrey2> just be glad there's people talking in here...I've lost track of the number of "support" channels I've gone into with 30+ people in the room, and nobody typing anything
[05:49] <mssever> Nauraushaun: Lexmarks are notorious for not working with Linux
[05:49] <Scunizi> Nauraushaun, check out http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Lexmark-X1100
[05:49] <Wolf23> heguru:  i click copy from a file on ubuntu, and then i open the disk1 which is for windows and there is no paste
[05:50] <heguru> Wolf23: open /mnt
[05:50] <Wolf23> heguru:  ok
[05:52] <Geoffrey2> I'm trying to set up vlc to play media, with no luck so far
[05:52] <xjkx> i need a gtk application to convert a dvd to .avi
[05:52] <overclucker> *sigh*
[05:52] <Beltz> Can someone help me install Ubuntu under virtual PC 2007? It's giving me bad graphics and no mouse
[05:52] <Wolf23> heguru:  after i open /mnt whats then?
[05:53] <Evanlec> Geoffrey2, 30+? that doesnt suprise me....there's over 1000 in this channel
[05:53] <heguru> Wolf23: do you see your windows files here?
[05:53] <Evanlec> Beltz, i would use vmware, while ive heard it is possible to use virtual pc 2007, its probably more trouble than its worth
[05:53] <mssever> xjkx: Would dvd::rip work?
[05:53] <Wolf23> heguru:  its empty, and on the left side i see disk,disk1,and disk2
[05:54] <heguru> Wolf23: ok do one thing.. goto Applications -> System Tools -> NTFS Configuration Tool
[05:54] <Scunizi> Beltz, not being familiar with VPC2007, is that a windows program?
[05:54] <calc> vmware works good on linux too :)
[05:54] <Evanlec> Scunizi, yea its windows version of vmware...
[05:54] <Beltz> Thank you, I'll look up vmware
[05:54] <Wolf23> heguru:  ok it shows a tick on the second option
[05:55] <heguru> Wolf23: what is the second option?
[05:55] <Beltz> Scunizi: Virtual PC is a virtualization program from Microsoft... I guess its the same as WMVware, but from microsoft
[05:55] <Wolf23> heguru:  enable write support for external device
[05:55] <MrStonedOne> Wolf23: u want a tick on the 1st option
[05:55] <Scunizi> Evanlec, Beltz..  you might have better luck downloading the Win32 version of VMWare Server
[05:55] <xjkx> mssever: no
[05:56] <heguru> Wolf23: Just check the first option as well
[05:56] <Wolf23> MrStonedOne:  it looks like transparent
[05:56] <Wolf23> heguru:  i cant it shows as transparent
[05:56] <Beltz> Ya, im trying that. Ill report on my success in a few minutes
[05:56] <Scunizi> Beltz, it hard to get support for a microsoft program in a linux group.. much easier with a program that is cross platform
[05:56] <heguru> Wolf23: ok on the terminal
[05:57] <heguru> Wolf23: type sudo ntfs-3g /dev/hdb1 /mnt
[05:57] <hellhoundp2k> Hey guys, can anyone tell me what some good p2p clients for ubuntu are?
[05:57] <heguru> Wolf23: and tell me what you get
[05:57] <heguru> !p2p | hellhoundp2k
[05:57] <ubotu> hellhoundp2k: Conventional P2P clients: Limewire/GTK-Gnutella/Frostwire (Gnutella Network).  -  BitTorrent: see !torrent  -  Direct connect: try valknut.  -  Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/P2PFileSharing for general information.
[05:57] <Beltz> Scunizi: Actually, it probably makes sense to ask here - as this is a program that lets Windows users decide on whether to switch to Linux without any risk (no formatting or real installation)
[05:57] <xjkx> mssever: oh its gtk :>
[05:57] <Beltz> But it doesn't work well it seems.
[05:58] <Beltz> Because Ubuntu installs in 24 bit color depth, yet virtual pc supports only 16 for some reason.
[05:58] <mssever> xjkx: It's been quite some time since I've used it. Isn't it GTK1 or something nasty?
[05:58] <Wolf23> heguru: Volume is scheduled for check. Please boot into Windows TWICE, or
[05:58] <Wolf23> use the 'force' mount option. For example type on the command line:,mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/hdb1 /mnt -o force,Or add the option to the relevant row in the /etc/fstab file:,/dev/hdb1 /mnt ntfs-3g defaults,force 0 0
[05:58] <MrStonedOne> Wolf23: oddoh
[05:58] <Scunizi> Beltz, color depth can be changed post facto.. IF you can get it to install
[05:58] <MrStonedOne> Wolf23: add -o force to that, at the end
[05:59] <mssever> Beltz: But people here don't necessarily have experienceon software that only runs on Windows
[05:59] <MrStonedOne> Wolf23: so sudo ntfs-3g /dev/hdb1 /mnt -o force
[05:59] <heguru> Wolf23: ok you have to boot into windows and shutdown properly and then try that again, you can try the -o force but it can case data loss!
[05:59] <Beltz> Scunizi: Check this URL, and on top of what you see, imagine having no mouse haha: http://haacked.com/images/haacked_com/WindowsLiveWriter/InstallingUbuntuonVirtualPCforWindowsLov_C436/image029.png
[05:59] <heguru> *cause
[05:59] <overclucker> hellhoundp2k, bittorrent, bittirnado, torrentflux, or azereus, if you don't object to using java
[05:59] <Scunizi> Beltz, is that during the install or after?
[06:00] <Beltz> after, hahaha<
[06:00] <Beltz> There is a way to reboot and to get in the recovery console or whatever, but vmware is 70% downloaded, so who cares now!
[06:00] <Scunizi> Beltz, then you need to get to the command line which won't care what the color depth is..
[06:01] <Scunizi> Beltz, with the focus on the VM try CTRL+ALT+2
[06:01] <Beltz> I'll give vmware a try first though... Anyway - i would love to try a few linux distros, and perhaps to try compiz/beryl on it. I bet Virtual PC doesn't support that...
[06:01] <Wolf23> heguru:  so boot into windows and then shutdown, and then boot another time to ubuntu?
[06:01] <psychohuman> ok, so i can listen to music via CD, but nowhere else...?!? any ideas?
[06:01] <nickrud> psychohuman: a fresh install?
[06:01] <heguru> Wolf23: yes, this way the disk will be unmounted properly by windows and should work with linux
[06:01] <overclucker> Wolf23, reboot windows twice
[06:01] <MrStonedOne> Wolf23: boot to windows, shut down, boot to windows again, shut down, then boot to ubuntu
[06:02] <mssever> psychohuman: Burn all your music to CD, of course! Just kidding
[06:02] <nickrud> lol, mount the isos
[06:02] <psychohuman> i just got done installing it
[06:02] <heguru> Wolf23: oh yeah.. do that twice!
[06:02] <Beltz> damn, my virtual pc deleted my last saved state so id have to reinstall ubuntu..
[06:02] <MrStonedOne> lol
[06:02] <nickrud> !mp3 | psychohuman
[06:02] <ubotu> psychohuman: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[06:02] <Beltz> thanks Scunizi but ill give vmware a try first, as vpc is just a headache :P
[06:02] <nickrud> psychohuman: read especially the first couple of paragraphs for why
[06:02] <Scunizi> Beltz,  VMware I've used in WinXP and 2000 pro with no problems.. Compiz/beryl is another issue.  You need accelerated graphics to run it.  that means a real video driver for your card.. that isn't supported in VMWare as far as i know.
[06:02] <seamus7> Hi.. how can I get rid of an old SSID in Network Manager? It tries to connect to the old now non-existent network first.
[06:02] <Beltz> Okay Scunizi
[06:03] <psychohuman> awesome, thx
[06:03] <Beltz> I guess if I enjoy Linux as a whole, I'll switch from vista to it, and try compiz at that point...
[06:03] <mssever> seamus7: open up gconf-editor and search for it
[06:03] <noodles12> when saving a file from firefox. how do i make it so it doesnt' show the hidden files when choosing where to save too?
[06:03] <Scunizi> Beltz, I ended up doing a dual boot.. still do with XP.. now I'm hooked but keep XP around for a couple of games.
[06:03] <mssever> noodles12: Ctrl+H
[06:04] <MrStonedOne> ya, the only down sides to linux for me is lack of game support... and lack of support for odd drivers.
[06:05] <MrStonedOne> bug #1 for you
[06:05] <seamus7> mssever: oh ok i found it ... thx
[06:05] <noodles12> mssever: that doesn't work. It works when i'm browsing folders. But in firefox when you download a file, it'll ask where i want to save it. ANd in that window, the hidden files won't stay hidden
[06:05] <Beltz> Can't you pretty much run any game with WINE?
[06:05] <noodles12> Beltz: not all games work well in wine
[06:05] <MrStonedOne> no, not at any good fps
[06:05] <heguru> seamus7: you cannot delete it unfortunately using the gconf-editor
[06:05] <mssever> noodles12: Hmm.. I've never seen that before. Maybe there's something in about:config
[06:06] <heguru> seamus7: do that from the command line:  gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /system/networking/wireless/networks/[ssid]
[06:06] <seamus7> heguru: I was able to unset all the keys but the main entry in the tree menu remains
[06:06] <mssever> heguru: seamus7 Avtually, you can delete it from there
[06:06] <seamus7> oh?
[06:06] <mssever> I've done it
[06:06] <seamus7> mssever: ?
[06:06] <Ritzerisk> whats the unzip command is there another program besides unzip to extract a file besides unzip
[06:06] <Beltz> damnit is there any IRC client that isn't retarded? mirc shows 100 people leaving and joining this room every minute and i cant disable it
[06:07] <mssever> seamus7: I've deleted SSIDs from gconf-editor
[06:07] <Geoffrey2> amazing how it's always the seemingly simple stuff that proves so frustrating
[06:07] <godzirra> Ok, I just installed xorg and now about 2 seconds after grub goes through and starts booting, i get a blank black screen.
[06:07] <jaypro> is there a way to listen to a specific port, and read the data that passes through as a string for a program installed on my pc that communicates with a server over the internet?
[06:07] <mssever> Beltz: I'm using XChat, which allows me to disable those messages
[06:08] <overclucker> jaypro, wireshark
[06:08] <noodles12> mssever: isn't there a universal command to hide them? I'm using gaim and i didn't notice it until he said something
[06:08] <mssever> noodles12: Hide what?
[06:08] <jaypro> overclucker thanks! ill check it out!
[06:08] <overclucker> (;
[06:08] <noodles12> mssever: what Beltz was talking about in irrc. everyone coming and going
[06:08] <Ritzerisk> ] is there a command besides unzip or a zip file ....
[06:08] <noodles12> mssever: and thanks for trying to help, about:config didn't have it either =/
[06:09] <mssever> noodles12: I don't know...I'm an IRC newbie
[06:09] <seamus7> mssever: I'm looking for a gui option to do that in gconf-editor but couldn't find one ... I just used heguru's CLI method ... thx all.
[06:09] <nickrud> Ritzerisk: plenty of them, what are you trying to unpack
[06:09] <godzirra> Can anyone help me with that?
[06:09] <derrrface> I'm having an issue with Ubuntu & soundcard. Everytime audio is played it is accompanied by a loud static/crackle noise.
[06:09] <Beltz> i think mssever understood me...
[06:09] <Beltz> im trying xchat now:)
[06:09] <Ritzerisk> just a zip file sooo darn new its for the asterisk but i got the install for a slackware
[06:10] <Geoffrey2> I installed the VLC media player, and it shows up in the list of applications...now I just need to figure out how to set up Ubuntu to use it to play media files....
[06:10] <Ritzerisk> is there a quick wget
[06:10] <Tokorona> Weell, that didn't work.
[06:10] <mssever> Beltz: Right click on the channel name and you'll find what you're looking for
[06:10] <Tokorona> Okay, so.
[06:11] <Tokorona> Apparently, the drivers I got from Linksys do not let it be run, I'm pondering dumping a lsusb output to a file so I can google it's serial
[06:11] <Beltz> damn its shareware under windows... Ill try it once i get ubuntu installed.
[06:11] <Beltz> Are there interesting changes from Ubuntu 6 to 7? I tried 6 a while ag
[06:11] <nickrud> Ritzerisk: sudo aptitude install zip unzip
[06:11] <mssever> Ritzerisk: What kind of file are you dealing with?
[06:11] <nickrud> Ritzerisk: or find them in synaptic for installation
[06:12] <Malachi> What's a good format/resolution to encode a video for streaming over a server? I'm using Jinzora.
[06:12] <MrStonedOne> derrrface is this just in one application? or does it do it for every one. also what sound card do you have.
[06:13] <mssever> Beltz: Actually, Saying Ubuntu 6 or 7 doesn't make sense because Ubuntu uses a weird version scheme
[06:13] <nickrud> Ritzerisk: and since I finally really read the subtext, look for asterisk in synaptic, you can get it from the repos (highly preferred)
[06:13] <calc> mssever: it uses a perfectly sane version scheme year.month
[06:13] <Ritzerisk> sudo aptitude command not found eeek i dont think i have a ubuntu os i got this asterisk for a vmware setup
[06:13] <dissection> Hi, I'm about to install Ubuntu on my laptop manually. I have 25GB of unalloted space. So I need to create 1 ext3 and 1 swap, right? Do I put the ext3 at the end or beginning of the partition? And how much space should I use for swap?
[06:13] <noodles12> mssever: not weird. 7.04 year 07 month of april
[06:13] <calc> mssever: 7.10 is 2007 October
[06:13] <Beltz> uh, i gotta reboot for vmware, cya
[06:13] <mssever> calc: True, but it's unusual
[06:13] <Tokorona> ...
[06:13] <Tokorona> I'm an idiot.
[06:13] <Tokorona> I misread the serial when I looked up compatbliity.
[06:13] <calc> its more sane than most versioning schemes out there
[06:13] <mssever> calc: noodles12 That was my point
[06:13] <nomasteryoda> dissection, about 2x ram, but if you have 2gb ram, then4gb ram is overkill
[06:14] <calc> especially the sun and microsoft ones ;)
[06:14] <MrStonedOne> dissection: how much much ram do u have
[06:14] <dissection> nomasteryoda: I have 2GB RAM
[06:14] <nomasteryoda> i use 2gb ram, 2gb swap
[06:14] <calc> eg windows vista is window 6.0 (iirc)
[06:14] <nomasteryoda> depends on how much else you might run
[06:14] <calc> er windows 6.0
[06:14] <mssever> calc: But it isn't major.minor.patch like most OSS
[06:14] <nomasteryoda> won't swap much for web and email
[06:14] <nickrud> dissection: location doesn't matter, and 2gb
[06:14] <dissection> nomasteryoda, MrStonedOne: I have 2GB RAM, and intend to do some video editing
[06:14] <calc> solaris 10 is solaris 2.10 is sunos 5.10 (iirc)
[06:14] <derrrface> MrStonedOne: every app.... Even if i Go thru the list of different devices (VIA 8233, ALSA, ESD, OSS) it will generate a correct sound tone (for VIA 8233) for one application... (EG: mp3 player) once i try something else; the issue arises... if i reboot, the issue again; arises...
[06:14] <nomasteryoda> ok..4.4gb then i would do
[06:15] <calc> mssever: which OSS dists use that versioning scheme?
[06:15] <calc> mssever: only the bsd's spring to mind
[06:15] <mssever> calc: I don't know about distros, I meant software in general
[06:15] <majnoon> ok i wait like 15-20 min and screen goes black
[06:15] <mssever> such as the kernel
[06:15] <derrrface> as far as sound card: its built in mobo... not sure
[06:15] <dissection> nomasteryoda: Okay so I'm putting a 4GB swap at the end of the partition, and the remaining in ext3. Is that it?
[06:15] <MrStonedOne> anyone know how to change the default sound device for ubuntu....
[06:15] <calc> mssever: also versioning major.minor.patch is largely abritrary outside of libraries
[06:15] <nomasteryoda> ya
[06:16] <nickrud> doesn't debian use that?
[06:16] <majnoon> gets to be a pain in the rear when watching tvcard
[06:16] <nomasteryoda> that works... dissection but i recommend a /home
[06:16] <Ritzerisk> just trying to add on the predictive dialing
[06:16] <Wolf23> heguru:  back, now i try to copy and show me the same error
[06:16] <calc> mssever: libraries that are done right use that versioning scheme properly :)
[06:16] <nomasteryoda> one for the OS, one for Home one for swap... at a minimum
[06:16] <derrrface> i go to system/pref/sound.. and i can select...
[06:16] <dissection> nomasteryoda: I don't see a /home in the list.. How do I do that?
[06:16] <heguru> Wolf23: can you now go to Application -> System Tools -> NTFS Config
[06:16] <majnoon> how can i stop it ??
[06:16] <heguru> Wolf23: do you see the first option?
[06:16] <Wolf23> heguru:  yes the second option has a tick
[06:17] <LoneShadow> !audio
[06:17] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[06:17] <derrrface> and btw; how do i turn on/off (ppl leaving/entering room)... i havent used IRC.. since mIRC circa 1998... dont know my commands
[06:17] <heguru> majnoon: are you on a laptop?
[06:17] <Beltz> back
[06:17] <calc> mssever: slackware sorta used that numbering scheme but felt they were being left behind in version number so jumped it from iirc 4.x->7.x or something like that several years ago
[06:17] <nomasteryoda> just resize the / and make space... say 13gb would be well over enough for the install... and addons you might encounter.... or want... the remainder for /home
[06:17] <majnoon> tried xset -dpms no work ,have a "desktop"
[06:17] <MrStonedOne> derrrface, are u using mirc now?
[06:17] <MrStonedOne> or xchat
[06:17] <Geoffrey2> ok, since nobody apparently knows how to set up vlc under ubuntu, is there a media player that does work well under ubuntu?
[06:17] <heguru> Wolf23: is the first option enabled now? can you check it?
[06:17] <mssever> calc: It's true that a lot of versioning is determined by marketing
[06:17] <majnoon> me have *buntu
[06:17] <Beltz> ack vmware looks so complicated
[06:18] <Wolf23> heguru:  no
[06:18] <nomasteryoda> dissection, reason for sep home is if you need to install over the os, you can... and save your data
[06:18] <nomasteryoda> by it living in /home
[06:18] <majnoon> got gnome,xfce AND kde
[06:18] <mssever> Geoffrey2: I use mplayer
[06:18] <derrrface> no gAIM
[06:18] <heguru> Wolf23: ok lets try the ntfs-3g from command line again
[06:18] <Anlar> Beltz: complicated?
[06:18] <dissection> nomasteryoda: Okay, so I need to make two ext3 partitions you mean?
[06:18] <heguru> Wolf23: sudo ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /mnt
[06:18] <majnoon> using feisty
[06:18] <Beltz> Its asking me to connect to a host, i dont know what to connect to... and i cant create any host
[06:18] <Fezzler> How do I safely replace home on boot hd0 with home on second hard drive?
[06:18] <mssever> Geoffrey2: You can get it from medibuntu
[06:18] <Wolf23> heguru:  Failed to access '/dev/hda1': No such file or directory
[06:18] <Anlar> Beltz: just click forward, you connect localhost
[06:19] <majnoon> heguru feisty,desktop
[06:19] <heguru> Wolf23: sorry that was hdb1 for you
[06:19] <heguru> majnoon: sorry can't help you with a desktop
[06:19] <nickrud> majnoon: system -> prefs ->screensaver, select the time
[06:20] <Beltz> Anlar: There is no "forward" button that i see.. look: http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/7027/untitledli1.jpg
[06:20] <Wolf23> heguru: fusermount: mount failed: Device or resource busy,FUSE mount point creation failed,Unmounting /dev/hdb1 ()
[06:20] <Fezzler> I had two hard drives.  One with Ubuntu (boot drive) and a second with all my users.  The boot drive crashed and I replaced it and reinstalled.
[06:20] <heguru> Wolf23: sudo umount /dev/sdb1
[06:20] <heguru> Wolf23: and then: sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /mnt
[06:20] <overclucker> Wolf23, can you still not rw hdb1?
[06:20] <Wolf23> heguru:  but i forgot to type -o
[06:20] <nickrud> majnoon: you could also try the inhibit applet, that might control screen blanking (not sure)
[06:20] <fwtest> hello, does anyone know any site which shows the statistic of used browser on the internet?
[06:20] <derrrface> even when I reboot; the startup .wav (ubuntu) has the crackling noise....
[06:20] <Fezzler> The second has my five users.  Before, the second drive mounted as "home."  Now, I have to mount "disk" ????
[06:21] <Wolf23> heguru:  umount: /dev/sdb1: not found
[06:21] <Beltz> Did I install the wrong one?
[06:21] <Anlar> I think so :)
[06:21] <heguru> Wolf23: ah my bad :) its /dev/hdb1
[06:21] <overclucker> Wolf23, he meant hdb1
[06:21] <MrStonedOne> !audio | derrrface
[06:21] <ubotu> derrrface: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[06:21] <MrStonedOne> try that
[06:21] <heguru> Wolf23: sudo umount /dev/hdb1
[06:21] <dissection> After I created a root partition, it saying the remain space is unusable. What do I do?
[06:21] <heguru> Wolf23: sudo ntfs-3g /dev/hdb1 /mnt
[06:21] <majnoon> it goes on slow so that may be it
[06:22] <MrStonedOne> dissection: u can only have 4 partitions including the windows ones
[06:22] <Beltz> Anlar: Which shoudl i Install? Wikipedia said the "vmware server" could let you install other OS under windows...
[06:22] <Wolf23> heguru:  ok then
[06:23] <heguru> Wolf23: did you get any error?
[06:23] <Wolf23> heguru:  no
[06:23] <heguru> Wolf23: if not try "ALT+F2" type /mnt
[06:23] <heguru> Wolf23: you should see your windows files
[06:23] <heguru> Wolf23: now copy and paste anything here
[06:23] <dissection> MrStonedOne: Okay in that case, I make the swap of 4GB, and the remaining space as ext3 mounted as "/"
[06:23] <Wolf23> heguru:  yes it opens windows files
[06:23] <dissection> What'll happen to my home directory then? Do I really need a separate partition for it?
[06:23] <MrStonedOne> yes
[06:23] <Ritzerisk> is there another command to unzip a zip file besides unzip or how can i get unzip and unpack it and install it ... thanks
[06:24] <MrStonedOne> no
[06:24] <majnoon> when is feisty getting gnome 2.20 ??
[06:24] <heguru> Ritzerisk: what is the name of the file?
[06:24] <MrStonedOne> the home dir is a folder /home/ mounted on the root partition
[06:24] <heguru> majnoon: i don't think feisty will get Gnome 2.2
[06:24] <heguru> majnoon: gutsy has it though :)
[06:24] <AboSamoor> hi all, i have ubuntu 7.04 i installed server 2003 as virtual machine, how i can add that vrtual machine to my LAN ? what about the network adapter i have to choose in VBOX ?
[06:24] <dissection> MrStonedOne: In your opinion, which is better, swap at the end or beginning of the partition?
[06:25] <majnoon> they USUALLY backport
[06:25] <MrStonedOne> i did it at the end.
[06:25] <dissection> I was gonna do the same :)
[06:25] <majnoon> and how long before gutsy becomes the "stable" ???
[06:25] <WaltzingAlong> files than need to be accessed frequently toward the outside of the drive
[06:25] <heguru> majnoon: October
[06:26] <dissection> MrStonedOne: For the root partition, "format" is checked. But for swap, it isn't. Is that a problem?
[06:26] <majnoon> ok not TOO long
[06:26] <WaltzingAlong> majnoon: october less now so a month or less even!
[06:26] <heguru> majnoon: ~10 more days i would say
[06:26] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: no
[06:26] <MrStonedOne> no. u HAVE to format the root partition
[06:26] <MrStonedOne> thats why its checked
[06:26] <majnoon> i'm basically using kubuntu
[06:26] <dissection> Okay, and now if I continue, It won't touch my windows partitions, right? :P
[06:26] <WaltzingAlong> MrStonedOne: i thought the question was about a problem with format not checked on swap
[06:27] <majnoon> but have gnome and xfce installed too
[06:27] <MrStonedOne> dissection if they dont have that format option, it wont touch them...
[06:27] <WaltzingAlong> majnoon: good. i switch between kde and xfce though sometimes i throw in fluxbox too ;)
[06:27] <sakitram> hello, I have downloaded Ubuntu alternative cd.  Now I do not have a black CD.  Is it possible to install using QEMU emulator?
[06:27] <heguru> sakitram: yes
[06:27] <dissection> Okay, so now I select the ext3 partition, and am gonna click "forward". Everything seems okay?
[06:27] <MrStonedOne> yes
[06:27] <majnoon> xfce,gnome,and kde are the OFFICAL branches :)
[06:28] <Wolf23> heguru:  i want to copy paste from ubuntu to windows,not from windows to ubuntu
[06:28] <majnoon> and from what i see they pretty well interconnected
[06:28] <sakitram> heguru: could you please tell me the command?
[06:28] <MrStonedOne> dissection: also, it will scan your windows drives... and setup duel boot for you... as for the password. just keep in mind you have to enter you pass again to do admin tasks
[06:28] <Geoffrey2> mssever, OK, mplayer installed....Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device
[06:29] <dissection> It says the two file systems are assigned the same mount point /media/mapper_isw_dcdfbjhaa_Volume0):LVM VG is..... Please correct this by changing mount points
[06:29] <heguru> Wolf23: I know, thats what we've been trying to do!
[06:29] <overclucker> Wolf23, u can't copy to windows yet?
[06:29] <heguru> sakitram: are you using qemu on linux or on windows?
[06:29] <dissection> MrStonedOne: It didn't find my windows installation.
[06:29] <dissection> Thats why I'm doing it manually
[06:29] <sakitram> in Fedora Linux
[06:29] <MrStonedOne> odd
[06:29] <mssever> Geoffrey2: Hmm. I've never had that problem before. Anyone else?
[06:29] <WaltzingAlong> vista?
[06:29] <sakitram> I have 800 MhZ, 256 MB ram.
[06:29] <dissection> Says identical mount points. What do I do?
[06:29] <MrStonedOne> go back to the partitions screen...
[06:30] <sakitram> heguru: I have 800 MhZ, 256 MB ram.  And have nearly 3GB hard disk, where I wish to install this Ubuntu.
[06:30] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: need one swap and one /          but you could have (many) others as well, perhaps /home next
[06:30] <Wolf23> heguru:  so we cannot copy from linux and paste to windows
[06:30] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: I have only one swap and one /
[06:30] <heguru> sakitram: ok. first create an image file: qemu-img create -f qcow ubuntu.img 3G
[06:30] <dissection> And the other two is my RAID0
[06:30] <overclucker> Wolf23, you may need to chown username:root it
[06:30] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: are there others listed there using / ?
[06:30] <MrStonedOne> dissection: check all the partition. even the windows ones, for the windows ones, do something like /media/something
[06:30] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: No
[06:31] <heguru> sakitram: next run qemu: qemu -cdrom /location/of/ubuntu.iso ubuntu.img
[06:31] <Wolf23> overclucker:  how, just tell me please
[06:31] <dissection> MrStonedOne: Its a RAID0. Won't that cause a problem?
[06:31] <heguru> sakitram: change the last command to: qemu -cdrom /locatio/of/ubuntu.iso -boot d ubuntu.img
[06:31] <heguru> sakitram: to boot form the .iso image
[06:32] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: no but be careful. are you using the dvd or live/desktop cd?
[06:32] <sakitram> heguru:  I get :  You do not have enough space in '/dev/shm' for the 128 MB of QEMU virtual RAM.
[06:32] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: Live CD
[06:32] <heguru> Wolf23: ok can you type this and tell me what you get: mount | grep ntfs
[06:32] <overclucker> Wolf23, sudo umount /mnt && sudo mkdir /media/windows && sudo ntfs-3g /dev/hdb1 /media/windows
[06:32] <sakitram> heguru:  I get for df -h command:  tmpfs                 125M     0  125M   0% /dev/shm
[06:33] <heguru> sakitram: try: qemu -cdrom /locatio/of/ubuntu.iso -boot d -m 96 ubuntu.img
[06:33] <overclucker> Wolf23, then what is your username?
[06:33] <MrStonedOne> dissection: let WaltzingAlong help you on this. i dont have much raid knowledge
[06:33] <dissection> okay.
[06:33] <Wolf23> heguru:  /dev/hdb5 on /media/disk type ntfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,umask=222,utf8)
[06:33] <sakitram> heguru:  got it,  Thank you so much.
[06:33] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: i do not know if the desktop/live cd handles raid configurations
[06:34] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: I was told on the forum to install dmraid. I installed that, and type sudo dmraid -ay and it says the volumes are already active.
[06:34] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: ah ok
[06:34] <overclucker> Wolf23, sudo chown username:root /media/windows
[06:34] <derrrface> ok i tried the all the web URLS...still can't get sound to work.
[06:34] <overclucker> Wolf23, replacing 'username' with you username
[06:34] <heguru> Wolf23: thats the only line you get?
[06:34] <amidaniel> Wolf23: Are you trying to write to the volume? If so, you'll need to install fuse and ntfs-3g and mount it as ntfs-3g
[06:35] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: is it a hardware raid?
[06:35] <Wolf23> overclucker:  ok then
[06:35] <amidaniel> overclucker: Ownership shouldn't matter on an ntfs volume -- it has no concept of nix file permissions
[06:35] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: I don't know
[06:35] <Wolf23> heguru:  yes
[06:35] <overclucker> amidaniel, that's always done it for me.. .
[06:35] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: did you make the raid in ms windows or do you have an ide/ati/so on card which supports raid?
[06:35] <MrStonedOne> amidaniel: yes it does matter.... it uses fake ownership when it emulates it on mount
[06:36] <Fezzler> can someone walk me through how to create "\home" on second hard drive (partition?)
[06:36] <overclucker> amidaniel, and since that is true, it cant hurt windows
[06:36] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: It was preconfigured as RAID0 when I bought the laptop yesterday.
[06:37] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: alienware? :D
[06:37] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: Sony Vaio
[06:37] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: model?
[06:37] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: AR590E, the one with the Blu-Ray Writer
[06:37] <dissection> :)
[06:37] <MrStonedOne> Fezzler: go to the partition program in system -> admin -> gnome partition.
[06:38] <amidaniel> MrStonedOne: O rly? Hmm .. guess I just never encountered problems with it
[06:38] <Fezzler> MrStonedOne: You've done this before?
[06:38] <MrStonedOne> Fezzler: yes,
[06:39] <Wolf23> overclucker:  after  sudo chown username:root /media/windows <-- what should i do
[06:39] <Fezzler> MrStoned: A little background.  I had Ubuntu on boot hd; and "\home" on second hd.  Boot hd died.  I put new hd in, reintalled.
[06:39] <murlidhar> Is there any alternative to myohone explorer?????
[06:39] <overclucker> Wolf23, sudo umount /mnt && sudo mkdir /media/windows && sudo ntfs-3g /dev/hdb1 /media/windows
[06:40] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: all i have seen so far is that it is 320G in raid0
[06:40] <MrStonedOne> Fezzler: do u need anything thats in the home dir right now?
[06:40] <overclucker> Wolf23, did you do that first?
[06:40] <Fezzler> MrStoned: secon hd still has \"home" and five users on it (files save, beautiful set up!)  Will that still work?
[06:40] <Geoffrey2> ok, now, can anyone help me to get mplayer to work?
[06:40] <MrStonedOne> yes.
[06:40] <Wolf23> overclucker:  yes
[06:40] <Fezzler> MrStoned: The "reinstall" \home?
[06:40] <overclucker> Wolf23, not username, but your username
[06:40] <Wolf23> overclucker:  umount: /mnt: not mounted
[06:40] <MrStonedOne> yes
[06:40] <Fezzler> MrS: I don't think so
[06:40] <overclucker> Wolf23, good
[06:41] <Wolf23> yes
[06:41] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: In the partitions window, it does show a combined partition, but there is also another partition with about 8GB space. I'm assuming that its the parititon with my Vaio system recovery files. I don't know why it shows up with the same mount point. So I don't know if its safe to change the names.
[06:41] <Wolf23> overclucker:  yes i replce username with mine
[06:41] <overclucker> writing to windows disk
[06:41] <Fezzler> MrS: but I don't know what is in there that I may need unbeknowst to me
[06:41] <overclucker> Wolf23, can you write yet?
[06:42] <Wolf23> overclucker:  write what
[06:43] <heguru> Wolf23: try copying from linux to windows now he means
[06:43] <overclucker> Wolf23, can you move files to /media/windows ?
[06:43] <nomaS> hi somebody can help me the problem its that not load ubuntu, i tryed to install wireless i reboot and not load, what can i do ?
[06:43] <Fezzler> MrS: any hidden or system files associated with "reinstalled" "\home" I'd need?
[06:43] <nicholaspaul> Q: i have two optical drives, one called /dev/CDROM, but how do i find the path of the other?
[06:43] <uBpTru7h> Hello
[06:44] <Wolf23> overclucker:  yes it works
[06:44] <Geoffrey2> sigh....
[06:44] <Wolf23> overclucker:  thanx verymuch
[06:44] <overclucker> Wolf23, ok one more thing to finalaze it
[06:44] <uBpTru7h> I know you probably get this all the time, but what do I need to do to install drivers for my ATI Radeon 9250?
[06:44] <MrStonedOne> none,
[06:44] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: yeah i still have not come across anything on sony's site mentioning which card or anything more about the configuration
[06:44] <Wolf23> heguru:  you also :)
[06:44] <godzirra> Ok, I just installed xorg and now about 2 seconds after grub goes through and starts booting, i get a blank black screen.  Anyone?  Please?
[06:44] <Wolf23> overclucker:  yes
[06:44] <overclucker> Wolf23, so it stays on boot
[06:45] <Fezzler> MrStoned: So let's go.  Walk me through how to make the second disk auto mount as \"home" with my users in there
[06:45] <Fezzler> please :)
[06:45] <uBpTru7h> !ATI
[06:45] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:45] <MrStonedOne> Fezzler: ok, go to the partition editer and change the mount point for the home drive (it will be in that drop down box on the right side) to /home then rename home to home_bk or something. (just incase). go back to partition editer and apply the changes
[06:45] <Wolf23> overclucker:  boot on what :)
[06:45] <WaltzingAlong> uBpTru7h: some drivers supporting it are already installed.
[06:45] <overclucker> Wolf23, add the line /dev/hdb1 /media/windows ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 1
[06:46] <MrStonedOne> u will need to re-add the users with adduser on command line, but it wont overwrite the users folder
[06:46] <godzirra> uBpTru7h: My card doesn't show up under the restricted drivers.
[06:46] <Wolf23> overclucker:  add where?
[06:46] <overclucker> Wolf23, to /etc/fstab (gksu gedit /etc/fstab
[06:46] <Fezzler> Where is the partition editor?
[06:46] <nomaS> hi somebody can help me the problem its that not load run wireless but if i turn on ubuntu will not load, how can i uninstall?
[06:46] <MrStonedOne> Fezzler: system >> admin
[06:46] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: as with any such problem, solve it in a scientific way by troubleshooting. check the X server log, looking for errors /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:46] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: I think it shows it correctly in the partition window. i.e. a combined partition of 280GB (I have 2 X 160GB RAID0 and made 25GB of unalloted space from Vista so that I can install Linux). The extra partition I with the same mount name was only an 8GB partition which I'm almost sure that its the partition containing the Vaio recovery software. So I can choose "do not use" for the 8GB one, leave the ...
[06:47] <MrStonedOne> gnome partition editer
[06:47] <dissection> ... 280GB combined partition as ntfs mounted as /media/Windows, and then the 4GB swap and remaining ext3 mounted as /
[06:47] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: What do you think?
[06:47] <overclucker> Wolf23, that woay you won't have to remount windows when you reboot your computer
[06:47] <nomaS> hi somebody can help me the problem its that not load when i turn on wireless but if i turn off it will load, how can i uninstall files of wireless?
[06:47] <nomaS> hi somebody can help me the problem its that not load ubuntu but when i turn on wireless but if i turn off it will load, how can i uninstall files of wireless?
[06:47] <astro76> nomaS, that question makes no sense
[06:48] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: seems alright.
[06:48] <heguru> !patience | nomaS
[06:48] <ubotu> nomaS: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[06:48] <godzirra> WaltzingAlong: I've been trying, believe me.  The error is that it can't laod the nvidia kernel module, and it says no screens are found.  I've been trying to get this working for about 4 hour now.
[06:48] <punsad> nomaS: I can't understand your question
[06:48] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: unfortunately the solution does not depend on the length of time spent working toward it ;)
[06:48] <overclucker> nomaS, it may be loaded as a kernel module
[06:48] <Wolf23> overclucker:  good but /etc/fstab (gksu gedit /etc/fstab <-- what is the syntax
[06:49] <overclucker> gksu gedit /etc/fstab
[06:49] <godzirra> WaltzingAlong: Yes, but at this point I'm going around in circles.
[06:49] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: ok no screens found in log. any other errors? which video card do you have?
[06:49] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: well we can cut that short by trying those things which work ;)
[06:49] <nomaS> sorry its just that i didnt write the correct question
[06:49] <nomaS> :(
[06:49] <overclucker> Wolf23, sorry should have said 'gksu gedit /etc/fstab'
[06:49] <godzirra> nvidia geforce go 7600
[06:49] <nomaS> thats why i wrote several times, sorry about that
[06:50] <godzirra> And I know its possible to get working, because I -had- it working before.
[06:50] <godzirra> Long story.
[06:50] <godzirra> one sec, let me start it up again.
[06:50] <Fezzler> MrStoned: In Gnome Partiton app. It shows three /dev/hda1  /dev/hda2 and under hda2 /dev/hda5 (swap)
[06:50] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: ok so basically running restricted-manager to enable it did not work for you?
[06:50] <godzirra> nope.
[06:50] <godzirra> It only showed my intel wireless card.
[06:50] <punsad> nomaS: just try to state your question as clearly as possible
[06:50] <nomaS> ok i will write again
[06:50] <punsad> writing it several times will not help if it doesn't make any sense
[06:51] <overclucker> nomaS, so you are ssaying that instead of having to turn of wireless on you laptop, you would rather that the driver was removed instead?
[06:51] <Wolf23> overclucker:  yes i add the line
[06:51] <drarem> is it safe to write to an ntfs drive
[06:51] <Wolf23> overclucker:  but i have another partition ntfs
[06:51] <Ritzerisk> does apt get work for debian or ayer
[06:51] <WaltzingAlong> !ntfs | drarem
[06:51] <ubotu> drarem: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[06:51] <Fezzler> MrStoned: How to I change "mount point"?
[06:51] <MrStonedOne> the home drive, what is that, partition? or different drive? and if different drive, what is on the ide chain?
[06:51] <overclucker> Wolf23, that same line should work for it too, with a little tweaking
[06:52] <Geoffrey2> ok, this is weird, I ran mplayer from the command line, and it's telling me my ati video card has no xvideo support
[06:52] <punsad> Ritzerisk: apt-get work for debian or ayer? what does that mean?
[06:52] <heguru> drarem: its its fairly safe now with ntfs-3g
[06:52] <nomaS> the problem its that i tryed to install wireless but when i turn on wireless and reboot system , the system not load not run, how can uninstall the files i been installed for wireless? it only works with ethernet
[06:52] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: alright so do you remember if you had downloaded the driver from nvidia last time or installed the one through the repos?
[06:52] <sakitram> Now I am installing latest Ubuntu through Fedora 5 using QEMU.  It is going smoothly.  Now I wish to have both Ubuntu and Fedora to be booting at first.  Ubuntu is being installed in separate partition.  So is it possible to boot both OS?
[06:52] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: On the next page it says there were no users or operating systems suitable for importing from? Is that a problem? Or is it probably because of Vista?
[06:52] <godzirra> I downloaded it from nvidia directly and ran the install script.
[06:52] <Wolf23> overclucker:  but how should i know if its hdb1 or hdb6
[06:52] <Fezzler> home drive is hda in the top right box with the drop down as you described
[06:52] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: I don't need to import any settings anyway. Just want to be sure that it does not screw my Windows :p
[06:53] <overclucker> Wolf23, sudo fdisk -l | ntfs
[06:53] <heguru> Wolf23:  its hdb5 for you based on your paste of mount
[06:53] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: :D yeah it seems it just cannot import the data from the vista install on the raid drive/partition
[06:53] <Fezzler> Drop down shows /dev/hda and /dev/hdb
[06:53] <overclucker> Wolf23, w*
[06:53] <overclucker> Wolf23, sudo fdisk -l | grep ntfs
[06:53] <punsad> nomaS: do you want wireless to work?  I assume you are wanting to *reinstall* the wireless?
[06:53] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: But then will it create a Dualboot since it didn't find an OS? Or is that something I need to do manually?
[06:54] <Ritzerisk> what command can i use to view what linux os i have
[06:54] <lastent> hi, does anyone knows how can I change from UbuntuStudio to Ubuntu?
[06:54] <overclucker> Wolf23, id hdb5 where you store files?
[06:54] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: just do not format the one with windows ; about dual boot, yeah i guess we will see. should be easy enough to add though
[06:54] <drarem> uname -a
[06:54] <punsad> Ritzerisk: uname -a will tell you kernel information
[06:54] <Geoffrey2> I ran xvinfo and I'm informed no adaptors are present
[06:54] <MrStonedOne> Fezzler: ok, it seems u cant change mount point with gparted... one sec
[06:54] <Wolf23> overclucker:  how can i see on the terminal if its hdb5 or hdb6?
[06:54] <sakitram> somebody answer my question too?
[06:54] <punsad> Ritzerisk: also look int /etc/apt/sources.list to see what version of ubuntu you have
[06:55] <overclucker> Wolf23, sudo fdisk -l | grep ntfs
[06:55] <Ritzerisk> its not the version i cant use the apt-get command
[06:55] <godzirra> WaltzingAlong: Rebooting real quick.  But yeah, I ran the shell script from nviida.
[06:55] <godzirra> nvidia.
[06:55] <nomaS> punsad: yes i want it to work, but i dont know how :(
[06:55] <Ritzerisk> with my distro of linux i have
[06:55] <Wolf23> overclucker:  it doesnot show anything
[06:55] <overclucker> Wolf23, can you show me the url of your earlier paste?
[06:55] <WaltzingAlong> Ritzerisk: cat /etc/lsb-release    will tell you which of ubuntu you have
[06:55] <punsad> Ritzerisk: what distro do you have? or do you not know that?
[06:55] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: ok
[06:55] <Fezzler> MrStoned: I'm comfortable with command line if you know how to drive?  http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/
[06:55] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: It said the ext3 filesystem creation failed :(
[06:56] <nomaS> i already tryed but cant install so well :(
[06:56] <MrStonedOne> Fezzler: on there, look for the partition with the home stuff, look at where its set to mount at
[06:56] <overclucker> Wolf23, sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdb
[06:56] <heguru> Wolf23: sudo fdisk -l /dev/hdb | grep -i ntfs
[06:56] <overclucker> blast you - !
[06:56] <overclucker> blast you -i !
[06:56] <Fezzler> Under Mountpoint is "/"
[06:57] <godzirra> WaltzingAlong: yeah, still only the intel wireless card.
[06:57] <Wolf23> overclucker:  /dev/hdb5            9562       13270    29792511    7  HPFS/NTFS
[06:57] <WaltzingAlong> dissection: now if yo uwished to send the computer to me ;) i could have a look; otherwise thinking i cannot provide anything new
[06:57] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: alright so back to the script from nvidia, which worked for you a time ago
[06:57] <godzirra> Yes
[06:57] <MrStonedOne> the / partition is on the main drive that u installed you
[06:57] <MrStonedOne> too*
[06:58] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: that runs, installs without errors?
[06:58] <overclucker> Wolf23, sudo mkdir /media/hdb5 && sudo ntfs-3g /dev/hdb5 /media/hdb5
[06:58] <godzirra> Yup.
[06:58] <dissection> :[
[06:58] <overclucker> Wolf23, sudo chown username:root /media/hdb5
[06:59] <Fezzler> Yes, there is a "\home\fezzler" on the new boot hda.  On the second disk, has fezzler mom sis bro etc.
[06:59] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: ok so find which other errors or warnings are in the x log; maybe conflicting modules
[06:59] <dissection> WaltzingAlong: Can I format that partition manually?
[06:59] <MrStonedOne> ok, so hdb1 is the old /home?
[06:59] <overclucker> Wolf23, add this line line t fstab /dev/hdb5 /media/hdb5 ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 1
[06:59] <lastent> does anyone knows how can I change from UbuntuStudio to Ubuntu?
[07:00] <WaltzingAlong> lastent: how do you mean?
[07:00] <Fezzler> yes, /dev/hdb1 is the old second drive
[07:00] <Ritzerisk> it doesnt show me what version of linux i have .... is there a way to unzip a ZIP file not a targz
[07:00] <Ritzerisk> i cant use unzip
[07:00] <WaltzingAlong> Ritzerisk: yes
[07:00] <Fezzler> mountpoint is /media/disk
[07:00] <overclucker> Wolf23, you get all that?
[07:00] <godzirra> WaltzingAlong: one sec changing it from vesa to nvidia.
[07:00] <Geoffrey2> is there a channel dedicated to ati video support?
[07:00] <Ritzerisk> command not found
[07:00] <WaltzingAlong> lastent: ubuntustudio is ubuntu + installed audio and video apps
[07:00] <lastent> WaltzingAlong, I installed ubuntustudio but i want to change to ubuntu or kubuntu
[07:01] <heguru> Ritzerisk: sudo apt-get install unzip
[07:01] <lastent> WaltzingAlong, do I have to change the source.list
[07:01] <dissection> Will ex2 work?
[07:01] <MrStonedOne> Fezzler: in a command line type: sudo gedit /etc/fstab | then find that entry for that, and change /media/disk to /home/ then rename the old home and make a new home folder that empty
[07:01] <kevsthabest> hey guys.. everytime i try to install Ubuntu, (using 7.04 live cd) it freezes up at 36%.. is there any other way of me installing it?
[07:01] <kevsthabest> keep in mind i dont got any cd burner
[07:01] <MrStonedOne> thats empty*
[07:01] <WaltzingAlong> lastent: no you have ubuntu already. you could install kde (kubuntu) sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop ubuntu-desktop
[07:01] <Ritzerisk> sudo apt-get COMMand not found ?...
[07:01] <Ritzerisk> ohy
[07:01] <heguru> Ritzerisk: are you using ubuntu?
[07:02] <Ritzerisk> im not sure
[07:02] <godzirra> Ugh, since rebooting I get a different error now.
[07:02] <heguru> Ritzerisk: cat /etc/lsb-release
[07:02] <overclucker> kevsthabest, do you have a friend with a burner?
[07:02] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: and this is?
[07:02] <MrStonedOne> well, for the rename part: mv /home /home_bk    then do mkdir /home
[07:02] <Ritzerisk> no such file or dir
[07:02] <godzirra> now it tells me "Error: API mismatch: this NVIDIA driver component has version 100.14.19, but the NVIDIA kernel module's version does not match.
[07:03] <Wolf23> overclucker:  ok but it cannot copy paste to hdb5
[07:03] <heguru> Ritzerisk: cat /etc/redhat-release
[07:03] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: exactly. the ubuntu nvidia driver is installed as well
[07:03] <kevsthabest> overclucker: unfortunatly no.. the setup does copy some files over.. just not all.. would it be possibe to copy the filesystem of the live cd over?
[07:03] <Ritzerisk> haha eeek
[07:03] <WaltzingAlong> !nvidia | godzirra
[07:03] <ubotu> godzirra: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:03] <godzirra> I've reead that like thirty times. :/
[07:03] <Fezzler> gedit doesn't load?
[07:03] <Ritzerisk> same thing
[07:04] <majnoon> you need to get the right version
[07:04] <heguru> Ritzerisk: hmm try: uname -a
[07:04] <overclucker> kevsthabest, too much work
[07:04] <godzirra> And it doesnt have my card in the restricted driver manage.
[07:04] <Ritzerisk> gnu/linux
[07:04] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: ok then this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual
[07:04] <Fezzler> got iy
[07:04] <overclucker> Wolf23, sudo chown username:root /media/hdb5
[07:04] <majnoon> i have a nvidia mx 4000 it needed a "legacy" nvidia driver
[07:04] <Ritzerisk> linux localhost.domain
[07:04] <Ritzerisk> ?
[07:04] <godzirra> read that too lol
[07:04] <godzirra> I'll read it again I guess.
[07:05] <MrStonedOne> Fezzler, ubuntu or kubuntu?
[07:05] <Ritzerisk> geesh sry
[07:05] <heguru> Ritzerisk: np, well first it seems you're not using ubuntu
[07:05] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: basically uninstall it from aptitude/apt-get/synaptic, so on; disable accordingly. install from the nvidia provided package
[07:05] <Wolf23> overclucker:  oh sorry i forgot replace the username
[07:05] <overclucker> Wolf23, hehe
[07:06] <Fezzler> ubuntu
[07:06] <MrStonedOne> ok, gedit still not starting?
[07:06] <godzirra> Dear gods that one damned file.
[07:06] <godzirra> Killing me.
[07:06] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: i had these issues with an ati card, switching between the ubuntu provided packages and those available from ati.amd.com
[07:06] <Wolf23> overclucker:  ok but still doesnot copy :(
[07:06] <godzirra> WaltzingAlong: it was that stupid hidden dot file. ;p
[07:06] <godzirra> WaltzingAlong: thanks tons.
[07:07] <Fezzler> MrStoned: http://pastebin.com/m1957612c
[07:07] <godzirra> That was it
[07:07] <overclucker> Wolf23, are you in /media/hdb5 ?
[07:07] <Madsy> When I use the restricted drivers manager to install my graphic card drivers, is it safe to update the kernel without a matching update for my graphic card?
[07:07] <Wolf23> overclucker:  no
[07:07] <overclucker> Wolf23, where are you?
[07:07] <Wolf23> overclucker:  i close it
[07:07] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: which stupid dot file? btw, glad it is working
[07:07] <godzirra> argh
[07:07] <godzirra> it worked in single user mode when I ran startx manually.
[07:07] <Ritzerisk> i think i just got it by typing cat /etc/*lease*
[07:07] <godzirra> but when I rebooted into normal, I still get a black screen
[07:07] <godzirra> ... or not.
[07:08] <Ritzerisk> it says release ayer
[07:08] <godzirra> I just get a lback screen for about 30 seconds while it boots up I guess?
[07:08] <godzirra> that was odd.
[07:08] <Fezzler> MrStoned?
[07:08] <heguru> Ritzerisk: release what?
[07:08] <MrStonedOne> /dev/hdb1 /home ext3 nodev,nosuid 0 2 <--- add that to the end
[07:08] <MrStonedOne> brb
[07:08] <Ritzerisk> release ayer
[07:08] <WaltzingAlong> Ritzerisk: cat /etc/lsb-release
[07:08] <overclucker> Wolf23, humor me by : sudo umount /dev/hdb5 && sudo ntfs-3g /dev/hdb5 /media/hdb5
[07:09] <heguru> WaltzingAlong: he tried it, no such file, nor redhat-release or so
[07:09] <godzirra> WaltzingAlong: Note: In Ubuntu 7.04 the nvidia_new is explicitly required in addition to nv on the DISABLED_MODULES line. See this [WWW]  launchpad bug about lrm-manager failing to disable the nvidia_new module when nv is specified alone. Additionally you may need to manually remove the hidden /lib/linux-restricted-modules/.nvidia_new_installed file.
[07:09] <Wolf23> overclucker:  ok then
[07:09] <Fezzler> MrStoned: Done. Now what?
[07:09] <heguru> Ritzerisk: you're not using ubuntu
[07:09] <godzirra> Anyways, thanks again.  I'm off to bed.
[07:09] <WaltzingAlong> godzirra: :p
[07:09] <newdude> hi people, i got this problem i think im loosing internet connection because of this problem http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3428023#post3428023 could someone please offer me some advice?

[07:10] <heguru> Ritzerisk: oh.. well thats not ubuntu :)
[07:10] <Ritzerisk> so how can i do a simple apt-get for unzip
[07:10] <overclucker> Wolf23, hehe, did you add the line to fstab?
[07:10] <heguru> Ritzerisk: asterisknow is not debian based, doesnt use apt-get
[07:10] <Wolf23> overclucker:  /dev/hdb5 /media/hdb5 ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 1
[07:10] <Wolf23> yes
[07:10] <WaltzingAlong> Ritzerisk: with ubuntu one could do  sudo aptitude install unzip
[07:11] <Fezzler> MrStoned?
[07:11] <overclucker> Wolf23, then you are all set (;
[07:11] <Ritzerisk> hmm is three a way to extract a basic ZIP file hehe
[07:11] <Wolf23> overclucker:  thanx for your help :)
[07:11] <riotkittie> Ritzerisk: unzip <file> ?
[07:11] <Ritzerisk> command not found
[07:11] <overclucker> Wolf23, no problem (-=
[07:12] <heguru> Ritzerisk: hmmm i don't know what packaging format asterisk now uses. try: yum unzip
[07:12] <Ritzerisk> it said that in the install guide but that was installing it with the slackware
[07:12] <Fezzler> MrStoned?
[07:12] <heguru> Ritzerisk: oh k
[07:12] <heguru> Ritzerisk: join #slackware :)
[07:12] <scguy318> Ritzerisk: i hate to barge in but isn't Asterisk in the repos?
[07:13] <Wolf23> overclucker:  a question, did amsn works with mic like on windows?
[07:13] <clever[rev] > since ive updated the X server and another program ive been getting horible performance with video playback
[07:13] <Ritzerisk> but im using asterisknow a differnt os entirely with a vmware image trying to just install perl with predictive dialer haha
[07:13] <heguru> scguy318: yes but asterisknow is an asterisk appliance distribution
[07:13] <nickrud> scguy318: went over that about an hour ago. He's not using ubuntu
[07:13] <clever[rev] > the X server is using up large ammounts of cpu power
[07:13] <kevsthabest> clever[rev] : surprised to see another NBer here:P
[07:13] <clever[rev] > which it didnt normaly
[07:13] <clever[rev] > do
[07:13] <scguy318> Ritzerisk: ah
[07:13] <Fezzler> Anyone familiar with fstab?  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38613/
[07:13] <overclucker> Wolf23, not sure, never used it /-=
[07:14] <clever[rev] > kevsthabest: yeah i dont see them online that often
[07:14] <scguy318> Fezzler: wut about your fstab
[07:14] <Fezzler> I'm trying to make my default "\home" on my second hard drive, hdb1
[07:14] <Wolf23> overclucker:  if i boot on windows, can i open ubuntu files from windows?
[07:14] <Fezzler> will that work?
[07:15] <overclucker> Wolf23, only with the aid of hazzardous ext drivers
[07:15] <Fezzler> scguy?
[07:15] <scguy318> Fezzler: looks fine to me, have you tested doing sudo mount -a?
[07:15] <DreadKnight> test
[07:15] <nickrud> test failed
[07:15] <Wolf23> overclucker:  whats that a program?
[07:15] <Dr_willis> !ext3
[07:15] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[07:15] <Fezzler> I've done nothing but reinstalled a need boot drive with Ubuntu and edited fstab
[07:16] <Ritzerisk> so i was trying to figure out what distro i have so i can lookup or ask the command to install unzip just a simple well haha
[07:16] <Fezzler> scguy: how will ubuntu know to mount the drive?
[07:16] <Tokorona> I needto ask one question - is there anywhere to find out how to write udev rules?
[07:16] <overclucker> Wolf23, there are a few prorgams, bu i suggest you just not use windows (;
[07:16] <scguy318> Fezzler: because it reads the fstab ;)
[07:16] <Tokorona> Since.. to get my card working.. you have to write a udev rule
[07:16] <Fezzler> scguy: will fstab take care of old "home" on hda1
[07:16] <Tokorona> And thje one provided on the ndiswrapper wiki doesn't work
[07:16] <heguru> Wolf23: go to http://www.fs-driver.org/
[07:17] <Bakefy> as soon as I enter GDM, I have nothing.  I have no idea what to do?  My best option is to reinstall at this point.
[07:17] <Fezzler> scguy: will I lose the folders now on hdb1?
[07:17] <scguy318> Fezzler: well, if you add an entry for it, then sure
[07:17] <Wolf23> overclucker:  i am using windows just for a program that can transfers all files from my cellphone nokia 6230
[07:17] <scguy318> Fezzler: you lose nothing if you edit the fstab, just differently mounted
[07:17] <scguy318> Fezzler: so for what you have now
[07:17] <Fezzler> scguy: so I am set?
[07:18] <scguy318> Fezzler: yes
[07:18] <Fezzler> save fstab and reboot or re initialize?
[07:18] <scguy318> Fezzler: save fstab, sudo mount -a
[07:18] <overclucker> Wolf23, there are linux programs for that
[07:18] <scguy318> Fezzler: then just check to see if mounted a-ok
[07:18] <newdude> hi people, i got this problem i think im loosing internet connection because of this problem http://i192.photobucket.com/albums/z101/goneburger/Screenshot-3.jpg could someone please offer me some advice?

[07:19] <scguy318> kittyprincess: what's the error?
[07:19] <kittyprincess> it is an error durring the initial boot
[07:19] <Wolf23> overclucker:  really i dont have anyidea about finding that on ubuntu?
[07:19] <kittyprincess> media test failure check cable, i am afraid it means the cdrom drive is not compatible
[07:19] <ce_LucU> hy
[07:19] <Wolf23> overclucker:  do u know the program?
[07:20] <overclucker> Wolf23, one solution is http://tuxmobil.org/phones_survey_nokia.html

[07:20] <kittyprincess> live cd
[07:20] <kittyprincess> new install
[07:20] <scguy318> kittyprincess: if it's the LiveCD, please check the MD5 of your ISO that you burned from
[07:20] <scguy318> kittyprincess: and reburn at 1x
[07:21] <kittyprincess> did and it checked out

[07:22] <Fezzler> Okay, made edits to fstab
[07:23] <newdude> from sudo tiger -H
[07:23] <Fezzler> ran sudo mount -a
[07:23] <Fezzler> now what?
[07:23] <scguy318> Fezzler: check to see if the mount is as you desire
[07:23] <MrStonedOne> did u get any errors
[07:23] <scguy318> Fezzler: mount
[07:23] <scguy318> Fezzler: if not then reboot
[07:23] <Curs0r> Ok I finally got NAT happening! Geez that took forever
[07:23] <scguy318> Fezzler: if that should fail then fall back to old fstab and we'll see
[07:24] <scguy318> Fezzler: type mount to see if properly mounted
[07:24] <Fezzler> do I have to reboot?  can't I reinitialize ?
[07:24] <scguy318> Fezzler: you just did
[07:24] <MrStonedOne> Fezzler
[07:24] <MrStonedOne> check. /home
[07:24] <Fezzler> just "mount" at command line?
[07:24] <scguy318> Fezzler: yes or what MrStonedOne said
[07:24] <MrStonedOne> Fezzler: check home to see if the other folders are there
[07:25] <ChasingVertigo> I''m using Gutsy Tribe 5 with nvidia-glx-new (via  "Restricted Drivers"), after the initial reboot my screen goes black and the lights on my monitor flash (Its error message, like when I change the resolution to something it can't cope with in windows), but the refresh rate seems okay - is there something I'm missing?
[07:25] <Fezzler> " sudo ls /home" report my old 5 users files are in there
[07:25] <newdude> scguy318: i used sudo tiger -H
[07:25] <MrStonedOne> ok
[07:25] <MrStonedOne> your set
[07:25] <Flannel> ChasingVertigo: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support, thanks
[07:26] <Fezzler> that's it?  Will Ubunut mount the drive when I restated
[07:26] <ChasingVertigo> Sorry, thanks
[07:26] <MrStonedOne> yes, it sould, thats what fstab is
