[12:00] <rysiek|pl> zF: sudo apt-cache search mplayer | grep mozilla? :)
[12:00] <ubushine> Superslash, you have breezy installed?
[12:00] <fernashes> zF: should be "mozilla-mplayer"
[12:00] <zF> fernashes, thanks
[12:00] <Superslash> ubushine: no, not yet
[12:01] <fernashes> zF: did a search in Synaptic
[12:01] <Superslash> i'm trying to set it up to dualboot with xp-pro
[12:01] <zF> That's what I thought, what repo is it under?
[12:01] <ubushine> Superslash, so what then? the livecd doesn't see it?
[12:01] <mwe> zF: multiverse
[12:01] <Superslash> no, installcd doesnt see the partitions. all it sees is my hdd as a single 200gig unformatted hdd
[12:01] <ubushine> Superslash, please address my nickname when you respond
[12:01] <h36sa> Superslash: is it sata?
[12:02] <Superslash> h36sa: in xp though, i can see that i've got unformatted space partitioned off, and a 130gig NTFS partition. Yeah, sata
[12:02] <shiv> which linux-headers do I install for centrino?
[12:02] <ubuntu_> hey can anyone tell me which software can run h264 video files
[12:02] <h36sa> Superslash: get a newer livecd.. the sata stuff was kinda sketchy for a bit
[12:02] <Superslash> ubushine: sorry, hit tab by mistake and finished that in the other editbox >.<
[12:02] <Superslash> h36sa: its not a livecd it's an actual 5.10 breezy badger install cd
[12:03] <h36sa> I had trouble getting gentoo 2005.0 to find my sata drive but I finally got it
[12:03] <ubushine> Superslash, go with the live cd and install gparted if it's not there (apt get gparted) and try to format that 80gig drive from there
[12:03] <zF> I didn't have multiverse, that did it, though.
[12:03] <Superslash> ubushine: so go livecd and then use gparted to set up linux partitions in the unformatted space?
[12:03] <zF> !repositories
[12:03] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[12:04] <ubushine> Superslash, or if you're adventurous try fdisk or cfdisk. command line utilites.
[12:04] <h36sa> Superslash: you still won't see them with the install cd
[12:04] <ubushine> Superslash, yes. set up partitions from livecd using gparted then try the install
[12:04] <h36sa> Superslash: you're gonna need to install from the livecd
[12:04] <h36sa> ubushine: that won't work
[12:04] <ubushine> h36sa, oh?
[12:04] <Superslash> h36sa: and that will not screw up my NTFS partition?
[12:04] <Tiberian> ompaul, sorry was my fault :P~~~ thanks xD
[12:04] <h36sa> Superslash: shouldn't
[12:05] <Superslash> h36sa: well i've already tried everything with installcd's, may as well give another livecd a try
[12:05] <h36sa> Superslash: you might be able to pass some boot options to it to load sata stuff
[12:05] <h36sa> I'm not sure
[12:05] <ubushine> h36sa, i've installed breezy from to sata drives by resizing them in gparted
[12:06] <h36sa> ubushine: as soon as you boot the installcd it's still not gonna recognize the partition table if it doesn't now
[12:06] <h36sa> the switched from libsata to libata I think
[12:06] <ubushine> h36sa, oh? i set up a friends pc which dual-boots XP and ubuntu on a large 250Gig sata drive
[12:06] <HE1> Hi, I need help with installing a driver for Ndiswrapper, as im new its really frustrating to do something simple. I would like to Change the directory in the terminal to look in a folder i have names driver, that contains the driver. ANd then what do i type to tell ndiswrapper to install the inf file that i want in there
[12:06] <HE1> Thanks :P
[12:07] <Superslash> h36sa ubushine: if it helps either of you any, i'm doing everything by this guys tutorial: http://www.hezardastan.org/breezy_xp_dualboot/en/breezyinstall.html#installbreezy
[12:07] <h36sa> ubushine: did you use the livecd/dvd though?
[12:07] <ITSa341> Good evening everyone! :-)
[12:07] <NickGarvey> good evening ITSa341
[12:07] <IdleOne> evening ITSa341
[12:07] <fernashes> hey ITSa341
[12:07] <ubushine> h36sa, used the livecd to resize partitions and then the install cd to install. i believe. or the install cd to do both
[12:07] <ITSa341> IdleOne   I got it working
[12:07] <servers> how much swap space do I need?

[12:07] <azurehuesofblue> in xchat can I disable it showing me people comming and going so it's just chat?  I cant find the option :-/
[12:08] <IdleOne> ITSa341>  wtg :)
[12:08] <fernashes> azurehuesofblue:  it's under preferences
[12:08] <h36sa> ubushine: dunno then. I've only done gentoo on a sata drive and I had problems
[12:08] <ITSa341> IdleOne  would have been easier if the author had given a complete list of dependencies
[12:08] <Ads_> Hi guys, can anyone explain why nearly all my ram is being used up?
[12:08] <h36sa> HE1: I can help you if you've got a copy of the right windows inf/sys files for your network card
[12:09] <flax^^> ok, i downloaded drivers for my graphic card, ati-driver-installer-8.23.7-i386.run , install? how?
[12:09] <azurehuesofblue> fernashes could you show me the exact path, maybe I just keep missing it or something.
[12:09] <HE1> h36sa , yes please
[12:09] <ITSa341> IdleOne  would have been easier if the author had given a complete list of dependencies
[12:09] <Bollenator> flax^^, did you have luck with the hard drive?
[12:09] <HE1> I have the correct driver here
[12:09] <h36sa> HE1: modprobe -r ndiswrapper && ndiswrapper -i inffile.inf && modprobe ndiswrapper
[12:09] <IdleOne> ITSa341>  you should add a wiki page for GPS now that you know how to do it :)
[12:10] <ITSa341> IdleOne  I was already thinking that.
[12:10] <Superslash> ubushine: one other question while the livecd downloads (cant hurt to try), why the hell would opensuse take over half an hour to go from one page to the next during an install?
[12:10] <flax^^> nope, havent tried yet
[12:10] <ITSa341> IdleOne saved my notes just for that reason
[12:10] <zF> How do you select all and paste/copy in nano?
[12:10] <Ads_> Hi guys, can anyone explain why nearly all my ram is being used up?
[12:10] <tonyyarusso> Has anyone tried using ndiswrapper for a driver other than wireless?  (ie. card reader)
[12:10] <h36sa> Superslash: because it was installing the os without telling you anything?
[12:10] <IdleOne> zF>  with the mouse. highlight and right click
[12:11] <h36sa> tonyyarusso: 10/100 cards work with it
[12:11] <h36sa> I doubt a card reader would though
[12:11] <flax^^> ati-driver-installer-8.23.7-i386.run , install? how?
[12:11] <tonyyarusso> servers: The usual recommendation is 2x your RAM for swap.
[12:11] <ubushine> Superslash, opensuse -- never tried. tried mepis, damn small, knoppix, elive (great distro), slax
[12:11] <Sterk> hey guys
[12:11] <Bollenator> flax^^, 'cuz if you have characters that show up in Windows but not in Linux, you can change the character set Linux uses on the drive in the fstab file
[12:11] <h36sa> 2x your ram is probably WAY too much swap
[12:11] <r0bin> ... Why is Internet Explorer 6 running _perfectly_ in wine? WHY? WTF.
[12:11] <NickGarvey> wine is just that good r0bin
[12:11] <tonyyarusso> h36sa: Are there any sites listing what would or providing support for that?
[12:11] <NickGarvey> or that bad if you want to word it that way
[12:11] <Mnemic> !sound
[12:11] <r0bin> NickGarvey:  This is not computing in my tiny mind.
[12:11] <ubotu> I guess sound is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems or http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundProblemsHoary
[12:12] <NickGarvey> :-P
[12:12] <Superslash> h36sa: no, it uses Yast as a graphical installer, it was asking me if i accepted the terms of service, and when i clicked next (after checking yes) it spent over half an hour loading the next screen
[12:12] <h36sa> tonyyarusso: I'm sure there are
[12:12] <servers> how much swap space do I need?
[12:12] <h36sa> Superslash: never tried suse
[12:12] <flax^^> Bollenator, ok, how exactly?
[12:12] <NickGarvey> I used SUSE
[12:12] <tonyyarusso> servers: I've found it's more than I use so far too, but that's what I saw recommended a lot, so I figure it comes in in case of emergency.
[12:12] <NickGarvey> decent distro
[12:12] <NickGarvey> !es
[12:12] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[12:12] <tonyyarusso> h36sa: I'll look; was wondering if you were aware of any in particular.
[12:13] <Sterk> trying to walk through the xgl guide on the ubuntu forums and am having trouble with this command "sudo apt-get install compiz xserver-xgl libgl1-mesa xserver-xorg libglitz-glx1 compiz-gnome" i get couldnt find package compiz
[12:13] <Superslash> *headdesk it all then
[12:13] <NickGarvey> 1.5x your ram is the recommended swap right?
[12:13] <Ads_> someone help please, nearly all my ram is being hogged on my laptop, i know 256mb isn';t much but it didn't do this in windows and i had tons of crap running in my windows desktop
[12:13] <h36sa> I don't
[12:13] <h36sa> NickGarvey: you don't need 1.5gb of swap
[12:13] <IdleOne> Sterk>  compiz is for dapper iirc
[12:13] <NickGarvey> ha true
[12:13] <Bollenator> flax^^, in fstab, put "utf8" in the options part of the line for your extra hard drive
[12:13] <h36sa> Ads_: don't worry about it
[12:13] <Bollenator> like this: /dev/hda2       /mnt/share      vfat    user,auto,utf8,umask=000        0       0
[12:13] <IdleOne> Thug-N-Me>  please dont spam
[12:13] <Ads_> h36sa: don't worry about it?
[12:14] <tonyyarusso> Sterk: You might try #ubuntu-xgl if you get nothing here.
[12:14] <Sterk> IdleOne> not following
[12:14] <h36sa> Ads_: go type free in the console and tell me what it says on the +/- buffers/cache line
[12:14] <Bollenator> I had the same prob with an accented "e" in a folder name; this works perfectly
[12:14] <Bollenator> HIH
[12:14] <metalhedd> I cant et my webcam wirking with pwc.  dmesg shows pwc found the camera but theres no picture.
[12:14] <IdleOne> Sterk>  you installed ubuntu 5.10?
[12:14] <Sterk> tonyyarusso: thanks
[12:14] <Ads_> h36sa: ok hang on
[12:14] <IdleOne> tonyyarusso> compiz works on breezy also?
[12:15] <Ads_> h36sa: it says -/+ buffers/cache:     136020     104588
[12:15] <tonyyarusso> IdleOne: What?
[12:15] <azurehuesofblue> where under prefs in xchat can I disable it showing me people comming and going?  I cant find it! :-(
[12:15] <IdleOne> tonyyarusso>  nm
[12:15] <tonyyarusso> 'k.
[12:15] <IdleOne> :)
[12:15] <h36sa> Ads_: so only 136mb are really being used. the other 104mb is used as a cache to save time/disk access
[12:15] <Sterk> IdleOne> not sure,
[12:15] <h36sa> Ads_: windows wants to keep memory free, linux wants to keep it full..
[12:15] <Sterk> IdleOne> its the newest stable, whatever that is
[12:16] <h36sa> I have 2gb ram and I use a lot of it sometimes
[12:16] <Ads_> h36sa: so what does this mean >> Mem:           234        229          5
[12:16] <Sterk> IdleOne> yes, just checked, it is 5.1
[12:16] <jalvarezrom> hello all
[12:16] <Ads_> h36sa: 5mb free wtf is that right?
[12:16] <h36sa> 234mb total, 229 in use, 5 free
[12:16] <misterii> hey everyboodyy
[12:16] <IdleOne> Sterk>  ok but I think you are better off asking in #ubuntu-xgl
[12:17] <jalvarezrom> anyone knows how to change an usb disk label???
[12:17] <h36sa> Ads_: yeah but you can't count buffers and caches as used disk.. they'll get flushed out if you need more memory for programs
[12:17] <h36sa> that's why I said just don't worry about it
[12:17] <h36sa> my ram is almost always all in use :P
[12:17] <Ads_> h36sa: so why is my system so sluggish?
[12:17] <misterii> I'm trying to get my es1869 soundcard to work on Ubuntu. How? N00b terms, plz
[12:18] <Sterk> IdleOne> cool, in there now
[12:18] <h36sa> Ads_: probably because you're running a bunch of crap you don't need. what are the hardware specs and what desktop environment are you using?
[12:18] <flax^^> Bollenator, how do i edit the fstab? its read-only
[12:18] <IdleOne> Sterk>  ok. hope they can help you out more then I could :)
[12:18] <Bollenator> probably have to use: $ sudo nano /etc/fstab
[12:18] <dibblego> I create a user during install, and every time I use sudo, I must use that user's password - how cna I use some other user's password?
[12:18] <jdprc06> i get a huge amount of errors when i open synaptic
[12:18] <Xe> hi guys. today the day came... I deleted windows. Now I'm trying to turn the free space into ext3 and merge it with the existing ext3 on the HD. When I use gparted to resize the partition it says that the max size cannot be more than what it already is... so its not picking up the free space. how do i fix this?
[12:18] <Ads_> h36sa: i've actually followed the guides on the forums and wiki to disable all unrelevant crap but it's not helped, i'm running breezy
[12:18] <metalhedd> I cant et my webcam wirking with pwc.  dmesg shows pwc found the camera but theres no picture.
[12:19] <h36sa> Xe: are they both logical or primary partitions?
[12:19] <h36sa> Xe: you might have the extended partition in the way
[12:19] <flax^^> how do i edit the fstab? its read-only...
[12:20] <Xe> how do i know if its extended or primary? i seem to have forgotten
[12:20] <Inf3ctedFX> Hello ppl

[12:26] <mcquaid> is there a list of the reasons why dapper was delayed? i don't mind it being delayed just want to see if there's any potential showstopper that would make me hesitate on upgrading today
[12:26] <Ads_> h36sa: so like what other alternatives do i have because i am totally stuck with this annoying problem. :( atm it's all fine as i type but as soon as i fire up glxgears or something it slows down my system completey
[12:26] <smog> my iptables may be dropping your packets nick
[12:26] <NickGarvey> I'll check ethereal

[12:27] <misterii> somebody help me pleaaaaase.
[12:27] <ompaul> mcquaid search for delay on wiki.ubuntu.com it will explain something to you
[12:27] <RageMax> so does anyone know how to get mp3s playing with rhythmbox on dapper drake?

[12:27] <mcquaid> thx thx and thx ;)
[12:27] <smog> ?
[12:27] <h36sa> Ads_: no I'm saying your desktop shouldn't be that slow
[12:27] <RageMax> Mnemic: xmms
[12:27] <misterii> I have breezy
[12:27] <fluxt> nvm
[12:27] <Ads_> h36sa: ok so leaving glxgears aside, why does firefox totally slow my comp down or gaim or even amsn for that matter
[12:27] <Mnemic> xmms? o0
[12:27] <samuel_> umm i used su -i now what?
[12:27] <flax^^> Bollenator, one more thing now :P codecs, how?
[12:27] <misterii> opaul, I have breezy
[12:27] <Mnemic> RageMax, ? o0
[12:28] <RageMax> Mnemic: apt-get install xmms , it's just like winamp
[12:28] <tonyyarusso> mcquaid: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-art/2006-March/000734.html
[12:28] <h36sa> gaim slows your comp down?
[12:28] <Mnemic> ohhh
[12:28] <Bollenator> flax^^, haha, that's a tricky one, too
[12:28] <Ads_> h36sa: yes
[12:28] <avu> mnemic: xmms is quite similar to winamp, try the beep media player for a slightly more modern looking fork
[12:28] <htrp> how do you hide desktop iconds?
[12:28] <htrp> !info xmms
[12:28] <quadra> [ !unload : no module with this name ]
[12:28] <Ads_> h36sa: that isn'tthe only thing
[12:28] <avu> mnemic: (using gtk2 instead of gtk1)
[12:28] <ubotu> xmms: (Versatile X audio player that looks like Winamp), section sound, is optional. Version: 1.2.10+cvs20050209-2ubuntu2 (breezy), Packaged size: 979 kB, Installed size: 7216 kB
[12:28] <h36sa> haha.. significantly or what?
[12:28] <Stormx2> !info bluefish
[12:28] <quadra> [ !unload : no module with this name ]
[12:28] <ubotu> bluefish: (gtk+ HTML editor), section universe/web, is optional.  You must be superuser (su) to run this script
[12:29] <NickGarvey> samuel_: sudo
[12:29] <h36sa> Ads_: maybe you're using a bad xorg driver or soemthing
[12:29] <NickGarvey> /ubotu tell samuel_ about sudo
[12:29] <mcquaid> thx for those links, i guess i was looking for specifics in what gave them pause, for example i read there were having problems with gnome-screensaver with switch user
[12:29] <IdleOne> !tell samuel_ about sudo
[12:29] <mcquaid> things like that iwas looking for
[12:29] <Xe> so i went into fdisk /dev/hda and it gave me a menu. how do i find out from that menu whether i have an extended partition?
[12:29] <Ads_> h36sa: well i don't know what other driver to use for my display......i do know however there is a linux driver available for my chipset but i don't have any idea how to install it
[12:29] <mcquaid> but i think i'll upgrade today anyways
[12:29] <NickGarvey> haha I'm stupid
[12:30] <Bollenator> flax^^, have you used Synaptic yet?
[12:30] <mcquaid> by a show of aye, how many here are on dapper?
[12:30] <IdleOne> NickGarvey>  nahh you just didnt know :)
[12:30] <h36sa> Ads_: are you using vesa?
[12:30] <NickGarvey> haha no but I did though
[12:30] <Ads_> h36sa: sorry lol whats vesa?
[12:30] <samuel_> thanks
[12:30] <NickGarvey> !vesa
[12:30] <NickGarvey> or not
[12:30] <Ads_> lol @ nick
[12:30] <Ads_> ty anyway
[12:30] <IdleOne> !tell Ads_  about vesa
[12:30] <Grark> odd. IdleOne, gnomebacker wasn't in synaptic
[12:31] <NickGarvey> smog: nmap did not show an open SSH port
[12:31] <IdleOne> Grark> gnomebaker
[12:31] <NickGarvey> smog only 113 and 9090
[12:31] <htrp> how do you hide desktop icons*?
[12:31] <h36sa> Ads_: what xorg driver are you using
[12:31] <MisterN> n8
[12:31] <NickGarvey> ah ha!
[12:31] <Grark> IdleOne, one little letter eh?
[12:31] <NickGarvey> it did work
[12:31] <smog> Hmm, how would I open up the ssh port?
[12:31] <Grark> :)
[12:31] <NickGarvey> !vesa
[12:31] <Grark> Thanks
[12:31] <NickGarvey> from memory, vesa is the default video driver used by 5.10 breezy. It supports a wide range of chipsets, but does not make use of your video card's acceleration architecture. To gain best performance, choose your card's specific driver by reconfiguring X: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'.Also check the manual at :http://www.x.org/X11R6.8.2/doc/manindex4.html
[12:31] <flax^^> Bollenator,  nope, i've read something 'bout it i think, cant recall though :P
[12:31] <IdleOne> Grark> Linux is picky with that hehe
[12:31] <Ads_> h36sa: how would i find that out? i forgot which one i am using...
[12:32] <NickGarvey> htrp: tried google?
[12:32] <Xe> is there a better tool than Gparted, that resembles partitionmagic more?
[12:32] <IdleOne> smog>  you need to forward the port on your router
[12:32] <h36sa> Ads_: read through /etc/X11/xorg.cfg
[12:32] <smog> ah, oh yeah. thanks idleone
[12:32] <h36sa> Ads_: it'll be in the middle
[12:33] <smog> Default ssh port is 22 correct?
[12:33] <tonyyarusso> Xe: There's also QTparted, not sure if it resembles PM or not (Probably not, since it works...I'm not bitter.)
[12:33] <IdleOne> smog>  yes
[12:33] <NickGarvey> htrp: http://gnometux.blogspot.com/2005/07/no-icons-on-desktop.html
[12:33] <Xe> thanks, will give it a shot
[12:33] <abdelbarie> hola
[12:33] <Ads_> h36sa: ok just a second
[12:33] <htrp> thanks

[12:34] <samuel_> ok now i used sudo -i and it worked, but now im not in the directory I want... it only has the folder bootstrap_settings
[12:34] <NickGarvey> samuel_: what are you trying to do?
[12:34] <avu> samuel_: sudo -i puts you in /root
[12:34] <samuel_> install something
[12:34] <samuel_> ok
[12:34] <samuel_> i need to get out of root
[12:34] <samuel_> and to the home folder
[12:35] <IdleOne> samuel_> what are you trying to install?
[12:35] <avu> samuel_: if you just want to execute one command as root, use sudo command, not sudo -i
[12:35] <samuel_> a sound theme
[12:35] <samuel_> ok
[12:35] <Ads_> h36sa: i've got it, it says         Driver		"sis"
[12:35] <h36sa> hmm that should be right
[12:35] <h36sa> try changing that to vesa and see if it helps.
[12:35] <JoaoSilva> hi, i'm from a LUG and we will be having a LIP in 2 months, and we are installing ubuntu by default. is there a way to automate the installation? or to create an image of a fully installed and customized system (for use in our university) and install from that image? were can we look for further info on this? thanks for your time :)
[12:36] <Ads_> h36sa: ok i will need to reboot i'll be back if it does/doesn't help :)
[12:36] <Jemt> Greetings. I need to replace 'string1' with 'string2' in several files in a directory. Is this possible using a simple command in the console?
[12:36] <Ads_> h36sa: ty for help btw
[12:36] <h36sa> also, try running top in a window and see what the cpu usage says when you open stuff, also see what the wait usage is when you copy a big file
[12:36] <NickGarvey> JoaoSilva: yes, try a LAN install
[12:36] <samuel_> ok so like this? sudo command sh install.sh
[12:36] <NickGarvey> JoaoSilva: I will check google, I have done this with my laptop though booting knoppix and reading into it I know you can install ubuntu with it if I recall
[12:36] <avu> jemt: sed -i 's/string1/string2/g' files
[12:37] <Bollenator> flax^^, I'd say try reading around in this wiki article: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[12:37] <samuel_> worked!
[12:37] <samuel_> sudo sh install.sh
[12:37] <Jemt> avu: Nifty. Thanks. What is the 's' ?
[12:37] <samuel_> thanks
[12:37] <IdleOne> NickGarvey>  JoaoSilva wants to make an iso of a fully configured ubuntu desktop ..and know how to do it

[12:38] <Xe> is it impossible to merge two primary partitions?
[12:38] <NickGarvey> oh
[12:38] <NickGarvey> well never mind then
[12:38] <NickGarvey> oo I see
[12:38] <IdleOne> JoaoSilva>  try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic I think someone should be able to help you out or point you in the right direction
[12:38] <dibblego> is it possible to take a snapshot of the drive image?
[12:39] <JoaoSilva> NickGarvey, IdleOne, thanks for the tips :)
[12:39] <IdleOne> JoaoSilva>  no problem hope it works out

[12:53] <buulian> does anyone know of how to transfer over to linux from windows while keeping my iTunes purchases? Is there any way to run iTunes on linux? Or should I just front the cash for a mac?
[12:54] <tonyyarusso> How to make Firefox wrap lines to fit in one window without horizontal scroll when opening plain-text files (ie. .log)?
[12:54] <ompaul> IdleOne, not him - some other ip
[12:54] <ompaul> IdleOne, not you dude
[12:54] <asylumius> Can someone point me to some documention on customizing Gnome in Ubuntu?
[12:54] <avu> buulian: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats#head-3b21b161513c49f26dac2aaca9afd8f64e21aaaa
[12:54] <jalvarezrom> moox,  thanks
[12:54] <IdleOne> ompaul>  yeah I just checked hehe thanks :)
[12:54] <tonyyarusso> buulian: I don't know how it deals with previous purchases, but something to check out:
[12:54] <tonyyarusso> !itunes
[12:54] <ubotu> from memory, itunes is a Mac OS/Windows app, but you can use SharpMusique in Linux instead (sudo apt-get install sharpmusique), and it works for all of the same things with the iTunes music store, libraries, etc.
[12:54] <svu> does anyone have notify-send working in ubuntu?
[12:55] <buulian> wait! so using SharpMusique, you can buy music too?
[12:55] <IdleOne> buulian>  seems so
[12:55] <tonyyarusso> buulian: Yeah, that should work now.
[12:56] <buulian> omg
[12:56] <avu> buulian: And you can play your purchased music in any player using gstreamer as a backend
[12:56] <buulian> now there's no reason to not switch to linux
[12:56] <thomas_> anyone got any idea why my mouse is so fast and the sens/accel control does absolutely nothin

[12:56] <IdleOne> !tell thomas_ about fixres
[12:57] <thomas_> i tried using my gettin stuff outta my old xorg.conf

[12:57] <IdleOne> !tell buulian about gtkpod
[12:57] <thomas_> the line for the reoslutions and refreshrate
[12:57] <buulian> oh- it's okay
[12:57] <thomas_> but it didnt take it well..
[12:57] <buulian> I know about it already
[12:57] <buulian> I was wondering if sharpmusique had that in it
[12:58] <buulian> OMG-

[12:58] <buulian> I am so happy

[01:03] <aridese> OMPAUL, OK CAPS LOCK IS OFF, THX
[01:03] <tonyyarusso> nickrud: Okay.  A bit indirect, but it works.  (No option in Firefox?  I'm surprised.)

[01:15] <polpak> fdoosey, Yeah, I ditched windows completely 7 months or so ago.. I don't use it at work, or at home
[01:15] <fdoosey> Anyway, I'm using a monitor that can handle a higher resolution than Ubuntu allows at the moment
[01:15] <NickGarvey> I'm using windows now
[01:15] <NickGarvey> (goes and hides in a cornor)
[01:15] <polpak> !resolution
[01:15] <ubotu> resolution is, like, at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[01:15] <flax^^> i ditched win today to :)
[01:15] <fdoosey> I have it at home, my wife does too much photoshop stuff
[01:16] <fdoosey> Yeah, that's for Hoary
[01:16] <polpak> fdoosey, there's always the gimp
[01:16] <fdoosey> I'm on breezy I believe
[01:16] <freedom> for 3d acceleration i can a web ? xD
[01:16] <freedom> xD
[01:16] <_jason> fdoosey: that page will work, usually dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg does the trick
[01:17] <fdoosey> OK, I'll try to follow it...I assume it requires a log out/in
[01:17] <polpak> freedom, ?
[01:17] <fdoosey> I am liking the Linux much more, very fast.
[01:17] <polpak> fdoosey, I'd suggest just doing the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg as _jason said
[01:17] <polpak> fdoosey, wait till dapper comes out
[01:18] <polpak> fdoosey, the next version of gnome is much quicker
[01:18] <flax^^> ati-driver-installer-8.23.7-i386.run - install, how?
[01:18] <polpak> flax^^, tried the Wiki?
[01:18] <flax^^> tried what? :P
[01:18] <polpak> !tell flax^^ about ati
[01:19] <fdoosey> Gah, I'm not enough of a geek yet
[01:19] <polpak> fdoosey, you'll get there
[01:19] <fdoosey> It defaults to the i810 chipset
[01:19] <polpak> fdoosey, what video card do you have?
[01:19] <fdoosey> I had foolishly thought that Dell offered Linux drivers...pfft
[01:19] <fdoosey> Um, no idea about the video card
[01:20] <fdoosey> This is a machine I pirated from our NOC
[01:20] <polpak> fdoosey, it's not really dell's responsibility.. It's the chipset manufacturer
[01:20] <fdoosey> Arrr
[01:20] <polpak> fdoosey, try lspci
[01:20] <SunnyD> .search xxx
[01:20] <Relampago> hello
[01:20] <polpak> fdoosey, it should show you your video and sound cards
[01:20] <Spde> Whats a good stable and easy ftp server for ubuntu?
[01:20] <XpCrash> anyone know how to getinto a bios on a mac
[01:20] <NickGarvey> Spde: I use vsftpd

[01:20] <Spde> NickGarvey: sudo apt-get install vsftpd ?
[01:21] <polpak> Spde, vsftpd or proftpd depending on what you're wanting to do
[01:21] <Spde> polpak: what is the difference? i probably want the easyest

[01:22] <polpak> Spde, probably go with vsftpd then. Proftpd has more features, but is a little trickier to configure

[01:22] <Relampago> no is spam ..
[01:22] <Relampago> :S
[01:22] <Relampago> is my error

[01:23] <Abtubtuntu> hello
[01:23] <silvaran> Is there any way to get kind of an update history on what the last packages I updated were?
[01:23] <Abtubtuntu> when I think about Ubuntu I get horny.
[01:24] <IdleOne> Relampago>  I dont know what all that is ablout but it looks like you need a bunch of libs for apache. did you install apache?
[01:24] <Relampago> yes
[01:24] <Abtubtuntu> Is this normal?
[01:24] <IdleOne> Abtubtuntu>  thats great for you but try to keep it G rated please
[01:24] <htrp> what can you use other than esd?

[01:26] <dReadMoRe> what's the recomended configuration to install ubuntu!?
[01:26] <dzer0> hello
[01:26] <IdleOne> dReadMoRe>  default
[01:26] <NickGarvey> dReadMoRe: assuming you want the default, just hit enter
[01:26] <Abtubtuntu> when you install kde along side gnome using the sudo command does it set it up automatically?
[01:26] <polpak> fdoosey, I think you want the i830 driver
[01:26] <fdoosey> OK
[01:27] <IdleOne> Abtubtuntu>  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and you will have both and can switch from gnome to kde
[01:27] <Abtubtuntu> cool
[01:28] <Led-Hed> hello
[01:28] <dReadMoRe> hum...the recomended hardware requisites...such as disc space, memory, etc etc..
[01:28] <fdoosey> polpak, I do not have i830 on the list... :/
[01:28] <flax^^> !tell flax^^  about sound
[01:29] <TLE> Hey, does any of you know what the outcome of the delay discussion is?
[01:29] <IdleOne> dReadMoRe>  think you can find that on www.ubuntu.com
[01:29] <NeverDream> bom dia
[01:29] <captine> eve all.  Can someone help me.  I am in america for a while from South Africa.
[01:30] <Spde> sudo apt-get install proftpd doesn't work?
[01:30] <NeverDream> speak thy question!
[01:30] <captine> I don't have internet access in South Africa to d/l any additional apps for ubuntu
[01:30] <ryan`> where can i find out if a package is available for ubuntu?
[01:30] <NickGarvey> google
[01:30] <captine> where can i get aps + dependancies specific to ubuntu?
[01:30] <IdleOne> ryan`> packages.ubuntu.com
[01:30] <Spde> cant i get proftpd whit aptget?
[01:31] <NeverDream> captine, are you using ubuntu now?
[01:31] <captine> the live cd.  on my work laptop :)
[01:31] <Spde> NeverDream: you know why it dosnt work?
[01:32] <polpak> fdoosey, is this a laptop?
[01:32] <Led-Hed> I'm new to Ubuntu/Debian, but have used RedHat quite a bit.  I've noticed quite a few differences with respect to the CLUI.  In Fedora/RH I was able to start|stop|restart services like so:  service httpd restart.  How do I restart services in ubuntu? or where can I find a good tutorial for this?
[01:32] <captine> NeverDream, I was hopin to d/l the apps and install them when i get home (ZA)
[01:32] <Abtubtuntu> When I think about ubuntu i think wow windows is no longer needed because Bill Gates is so ugly he makes prince charles look pretty. But then it occurs to me. If ubuntu is going to take over the w
[01:32] <Abtubtuntu> ++++++++
[01:32] <NeverDream> Spde, do you have the repos set up right?
[01:32] <Abtubtuntu> world we w
[01:32] <fdoosey> polpak, no, it's a desktop
[01:32] <Abtubtuntu> we will need a leader
[01:32] <Spde> NeverDream: repos?
[01:32] <NeverDream> captine, there're a bunch of repositories with ubuntu debs on them
[01:32] <fdoosey> I'm checking Intel for a download
[01:33] <NeverDream> Spde, reositories? /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:33] <polpak> Led-Hed, I think you want invoke-rc.d
[01:33] <ryan`> IdleOne, thanks
[01:33] <nickrud> Led-Hed, the near equiv is invoke-rc.d
[01:33] <navarone> Abtubtuntu: I am sure you'll find a leader in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:33] <NeverDream> Spde, you want to make sure you have the repo that has your package in it
[01:33] <Led-Hed> thanks
[01:33] <NeverDream> Spde, then apt-get update
[01:33] <nickrud> Led-Hed, faster: man invoke-rc.d
[01:34] <polpak> Led-Hed, it's already installed you just have to check the man page/documentation
[01:34] <ryan`> anyone here using Xubuntu?
[01:34] <Led-Hed> K, will do
[01:34] <nickrud> lose one, win one :)
[01:35] <navarone> ryan`: I am using xfce
[01:35] <NeverDream> will the official xubuntu be released with 6.04/6.05 (whichever it turns out to be)?
[01:35] <IdleOne> ryan`>  no problem and yeah Im running xubuntu
[01:35] <captine> NeverDream, cool.  is ftp://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/ a repository?  it seems to have apps in it
[01:35] <ryan`> IdleOne, cool.
[01:36] <jimcooncat> ryan, not right now but set one up for a friend
[01:36] <ryan`> I'm considering trying it on my laptop
[01:36] <NeverDream> captine, yes, but that's unofficial stuff
[01:36] <Honda> Hi All
[01:36] <IdleOne> ryan`>  give it a shot
[01:36] <phaedral> i'm finishing an install of 5.1; reading from linux on laptops about setting up my wifi; the instructions for installing wpa_supplicant seem a little odd; why not su to root and apt-get install wpa_supplicant?
[01:36] <NeverDream> captine, but still useful stuff if you want it ;)
[01:36] <Honda> I'm new to Ubuntu lol... ran it for the first time today...
[01:36] <polpak> fdoosey, check out this thread on the ubuntu forums.. It may help you
[01:37] <polpak> fdoosey, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=48154&highlight=82865G
[01:37] <ryan`> i tried gentoo yesterday, but the bloody installer took a bite out of my windows partition :'(
[01:37] <Superslash> Anyone ran an ubuntu livecd recently?
[01:37] <ryan`> rather upsetting, that.
[01:37] <jimcooncat> ryan xubuntu is easy to run with gnome still installed
[01:37] <Honda> I did!
[01:37] <Honda> I'm running a Live CD right now.
[01:37] <polpak> Honda, =)
[01:37] <youBun2> I need some help if possible
[01:37] <ryan`> jimcooncat, yeah, but I don't have terribly much HD space
[01:37] <Superslash> how long did the part where it said "Setting up LVM volume groups" take you?
[01:37] <youBun2> I have sata with a hidden fat as sdal
[01:37] <Honda> Linux evolved too much.... it's awesome...
[01:37] <youBun2> windows is on sda2
[01:38] <youBun2> and i need some help setting up grub
[01:38] <Superslash> because this section tends to take me around half an hour at least
[01:38] <IdleOne> !tell youBun2 about dualboot
[01:38] <jimcooncat> ryan`, doesn't take much, clean out your cache after
[01:38] <IdleOne> Superslash>  thats way to long
[01:38] <NickGarvey> honda: nice job, hows gnu/linux treating you so far?
[01:39] <ryan`> hmm
[01:39] <Honda> I'm thinking seriously about creating a second partition to install it...
[01:39] <Superslash> idle0ne: you have no idea, i've been booting up a livecd for almost an hour and a half now
[01:39] <nickrud> is there anyone about who knows sata + grub well ?
[01:39] <ryan`> how's wireless support? Will I have to build madwifi drivers?
[01:39] <Superslash> the longest parts were configuring swap and now this
[01:39] <NickGarvey> honda: how much HD space do you have?
[01:40] <Superslash> and it just finished that, now its doing "Enterprise volume management system"
[01:40] <farous> anyone know why with the latest updates my system became irratic and unstable?
[01:40] <Honda> Well unfortunatelly I have a great space... but my computer won't let it happen lol... too slow you know?
[01:41] <Chiv> newbie here, probably a question from the faq(couldnt find it though). How do i make the remote desktop/vnc a system service, so i dont have to log in first and then connect, but rather just connect from vnc after boot ?
[01:41] <Spde> how do i edit accounts and stuff in proftpd? cant really find it in the man page? (tired) =)
[01:41] <benplaut> I;m getting into lightweight WMs, most of which don't have any sort of load-on-login functionality. In a gdm .desktop file, can i have it execute a standard-format .xinitrc?
[01:41] <jimcooncat> Honda, my friends happy with a 5 year old Compaq and xubuntu, only a few things are slow
[01:42] <captine> NeverDream, sorry to keep bothering, but where are the official d/l's?
[01:42] <NeverDream> the "main" repo
[01:42] <farous> spde there is a good howto on the formus on proftpd. adise use vsftp from its name it is more secure :)
[01:42] <Honda> Can the linux be joint to a Windows domain and support it features already?
[01:42] <ilian> ?
[01:42] <NickGarvey> honda look into "samba"
[01:42] <NeverDream> captine, main, security, and universe has useful stuff, too
[01:42] <jimcooncat> Honda, I beleive so, see samba
[01:42] <fdoosey> polpak -> I made the changes from that forum, is a dpkg-reconfigure still needed?
[01:42] <Honda> let me find something for it....
[01:43] <ilian> hi
[01:43] <polpak> fdoosey, I don't think so.. Just have to restart X
[01:43] <Honda> or better, about it... lol my english sucxxxxx
[01:43] <fdoosey> Ah
[01:43] <Chiv> i dont think sambat allows to join a domain, but just file/printer sharing
[01:43] <NeverDream> captine, here's all of them: ftp://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/
[01:43] <jimcooncat> Honda, we've only used it as a domain controller
[01:43] <fdoosey> <-- total newbie... and I do that...how?
[01:43] <Honda> but no as a client?
[01:43] <Honda> not
[01:43] <polpak> fdoosey, ctrl-alt-backspace works pretty well
[01:43] <twinge> How do you guys feel about ubuntu as development environment? It seems to market itself primarily at the "normal" user.
[01:43] <fdoosey> learning this will be SO worth it to be rid of Windows
[01:43] <fdoosey> OK
[01:44] <p01n7> thought everyone wanted to know
[01:44] <p01n7> :P
[01:44] <NeverDream> captine, I would imagine the easiest way would be to rsync them to a drive, if you have a drive large enough... you'd need a LOT of space
[01:44] <jimcooncat> Honda, no, but should not be a problem
[01:44] <polpak> p01n7, dapper's not stable yet.. But you can if you feel you're up to it
[01:44] <ilian> may I join the dialogue?
[01:44] <nickrud> gotta be better than mandrake
[01:44] <youBun2> Oh I also can access the drive just fine with my current fstab
[01:44] <ilian> I am a newbie aswell
[01:44] <jimcooncat> ilian, you really should
[01:44] <nickrud> er
[01:44] <p01n7> polpak, thats mostly why im doing it
[01:44] <Honda> Well I saw that most of linux e-mail clients supports exchange server.
[01:45] <captine> NeverDream, thanks.  I will get an external drive tomorrow.
[01:45] <Honda> that is cool...
[01:45] <NeverDream> captine, that would give you every package
[01:45] <ilian> how can I private message smb?
[01:45] <NeverDream> captine, but you could just get what you want and make a little repo yourself
[01:45] <NeverDream> captine, iirc, there's a guide on the net somewhere
[01:45] <pvd2006> is Nessus a pretty good way to test your system for security holes?
[01:45] <captine> NeverDream, hope my hotel doesn't mind me downloading like mad
[01:46] <Honda> I'm looking at fedora distribution screenshots... does anyone know wich one is more intuitive?
[01:46] <captine> :)
[01:46] <Honda> knows
[01:46] <IdleOne> captine>  your paying for the connection :)
[01:46] <captine> iirc?
[01:46] <farous> anyone know why with the latest updates my system became irratic and unstable? talking about breezy here? for example w, who are giving me problams. Also dual head xinerama started to give me problams were half the screen was not displayed last time i gave a presentation
[01:46] <NeverDream> captine, yeah, it's a HUGE download
[01:48] <captine> IdleOne, nope, it's free, but they might complain
[01:48] <Spde> anyone running software raid here?
[01:48] <jimcooncat> Honda, fedora is nice if you have a geek guide available to get you set up
[01:48] <IdleOne> captine>  tell them it's for a big presentation you need to do
[01:48] <NeverDream> captine, it would work something like this: http://tim.suttonfamily.co.uk/timwiki/How_to_make_your_own_apt_repository
[01:48] <captine> shot NeverDream
[01:48] <captine> will do IdleOne
[01:48] <captine> :)
[01:48] <jimcooncat> Honda, but I got the feeling you gotta be part of the club
[01:49] <captine> the connection is through inn-connections.com
[01:49] <NeverDream> fedora is really easy to set up, and it's pretty to boot
[01:49] <Honda> I aways liked Red Hat distributions, but I stopped playing with linux when I got spanked for one weekend trying to install a modem. I think it happened in 2001 loooooooooool
[01:50] <ilian> can I have a private conversation with an andvanced linux user?
[01:50] <MistaED> fedora has some nice gui tools to make life easier like to change services, samba, etc. but it fails with yum/up2date compared to apt/synaptic
[01:50] <nickrud> Honda, hardware modems, <rinse and repeat>
[01:50] <NeverDream> MistaED, exactly why I use Ubuntu :p
[01:50] <jimcooncat> captine, you running your distribution out of a hotel room?
[01:50] <captine> yip
[01:50] <Abtubtuntu> I prefer Ubuntu because it's brown.
[01:50] <youBun2> Folks
[01:50] <Honda> I think I was trying to install a winmodem, but that was long ago... thing got better now, at least we have broadband lol
[01:51] <captine> jimcooncat, I've booted the live cd
[01:51] <youBun2> When I reinstall Windows on Monday
[01:51] <youBun2> How many partitions should i create?
[01:51] <jimcooncat> how you like it, I haven't tried a new one lately
[01:51] <captine> jimcooncat, would love to buy a laptop and load it, but got no cash for that
[01:51] <youBun2> I would like to run Ubuntu with XP but I am told I should have an extra partition for dual boot ?
[01:51] <calloc> how do i restart the mysqld server?
[01:51] <ryan`> youBun2: when I dual boot windows, I make two partitinos for windows
[01:52] <ryan`> one ntfs
[01:52] <jimcooncat> captine, get an old clunker and stick it in a corner down cellar
[01:52] <Parkotron> I need some bash help.  I'd like to rename them all to .jpg. The following line will rename all the files in the current directory, but I'd like the rename to work recursively: for file in *.jpg; do mv $file ${file/%".jpg"/".jpe"}; done
[01:52] <ryan`> and one fat32
[01:52] <ilian> May I ask a question?
[01:52] <ryan`> and I use the fat32 for the page file
[01:52] <jimcooncat> ilian, please just ask
[01:52] <ryan`> then use the page file as swap under linux.
[01:52] <captine> jimcooncat, i don't understand.  Do you mean a second hand laptop?
[01:52] <ryan`> but that's just me.
[01:52] <ilian> I`ve just installed Ubunto and spliced my HDD in 3 parts
[01:52] <jimcooncat> captine, or old desktop, they're easier to find
[01:52] <ryan`> Parkotron: use find
[01:53] <ilian> 1.WindowsXP 2 Ubunto 3 Database
[01:53] <Honda> Does linux already recognizes ntfs partitions?
[01:53] <jimcooncat> but thinkpads around here are fairly cheap
[01:53] <polpak> Honda, read only, but yes
[01:53] <calloc> how do i restart the mysqld server?
[01:53] <MistaED> i recommend ext2 over fat32 if you want a shared partition for data, see fs-driver.com
[01:53] <Parkotron> ryan`: Thanks. Really should have thought of that.
[01:53] <Superslash> honda ilian: yes but if you have a SATA hdd apparently ubuntu installcd's don't recognize partitions
[01:53] <jimcooncat> second hand that is
[01:53] <nickrud> youBun2, I'd wait a bit, this seems to be geek time :)
[01:53] <youBun2> lol
[01:53] <ilian> Windws cannot find the HDD with the database...
[01:53] <jimcooncat> ilian, so what's the problem?
[01:53] <captine> jimcooncat, can't take an old desktop back to south africa with me.  Will take up too much space.  Would ubuntu install and run off an external hdd
[01:54] <nickrud> Superslash, that's youBun2's exact problem
[01:54] <youBun2> nickrud, lol
[01:54] <Superslash> bickrud: my exact problem as well
[01:54] <ryan`> polpak, Honda: you can write NTFS, but the write support in the vanilla kernel is experimental
[01:54] <ryan`> captine: sure
[01:54] <jimcooncat> captine, I believe so, you just would have to be able to boot it
[01:54] <Superslash> apparently the way to solve the unrecognized partition problem is to run the latest livecd and fix everything with gparted
[01:55] <ilian> the separate database HDD is "invisible" by Windows....No problem for the Linux...
[01:55] <ryan`> even if you can't boot it, you can bootstrap it from a bootcd, thoug that can be a little tricky.
[01:55] <analfabeta_>  hi, i will compiler a simples hello word in C, but the gnu c compiler says: "error: studio.h: No such file or directory"
[01:55] <captine> cool.  will get one tomorrow.
[01:55] <lucascoala> somebody can help me with FULL DUPLEX????
[01:55] <analfabeta_> why is that?
[01:55] <jimcooncat> captine, why not stick with the livecd?
[01:55] <ilian> dunno
[01:55] <Superslash> personally i just left about 80gigs unformatted in my windows install and imo use that with gparted, dont even need to touch my windows
[01:55] <ryan`> lucascoala, full dupelx on what?
[01:55] <_jason> analfabeta_: do you want stdio.h instead?
[01:55] <calloc> How do i restart the mysql server in ubuntu?
[01:56] <lucascoala> to use ekiga in ubuntu
[01:56] <lucascoala> dapper
[01:56] <_jason> calloc: did you install it?
[01:56] <analfabeta_> _jason, in gcc?
[01:56] <Superslash> of course anybody running a livecd will probably have my problem and be stuck for almost 30minutes at "enterprise volume management system"
[01:56] <ilian> I have operational Ubunto and Windows...but is this some kind of bug from the Win32?
[01:56] <polpak> calloc, /etc/init.d/mysql restart  probably. Or possibly mysqld
[01:56] <cK^Deathman>  when i try to run the live version, it loads everything up in bios or whatever, but then it freezes with a _ in the top left
[01:56] <captine> jimcooncat, cos i cant download apps or update :)  Ideally, i think i will just d/l all the apps i want and install them on my desktop back home
[01:56] <_jason> analfabeta_: you have a #include <studio.h>, do you mean stdio.h?  That is what I am used to seeing
[01:56] <ryan`> lucascoala: please be more specific
[01:56] <captine> jimcooncat, i.e. i want tv time etc
[01:56] <polpak> calloc, and you'll need to use sudo
[01:56] <lucascoala> yeah...
[01:56] <Honda> Superslash, My live CD took  only 5 minutes to book.
[01:56] <nickrud> and since I have never had sata, I'm at the end of my help
[01:56] <lucascoala> i have try to use ekiga to make conversation...
[01:57] <Superslash> honda: mines been on "starting enterprise management system" for around half an hour now
[01:57] <jimcooncat> captine, remote control of your home desktop isn't an option?
[01:57] <captine> Superslash, i agree with Honda, 5 minutes if that
[01:57] <analfabeta_> _jason, how i can know if i have ?
[01:57] <lucascoala> but when a does a conection i have an error
[01:57] <Honda> Superslash: something is wrong man... wut is ur hardware conf?
[01:57] <_jason> analfabeta_: put your source code on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and give me a link please
[01:57] <lucascoala> in a support of full duplex in alsa...
[01:57] <nekostar> ioi
[01:57] <IdleOne> Superslash>  try burning another cd
[01:57] <captine> jimcooncat, south africa is extremely expensive in terms of internet connectivity.  Dont have a connection at home
[01:57] <polpak> analfabeta_, stdio.h is the C standard IO header.. studio.h is not standard
[01:57] <fdoosey> polpak -> the fix on that thread blowed up X
[01:57] <fdoosey> BUT...
[01:58] <samuel> How do you make it so you can see your windows partition in ubuntu ? with a dual boot config
[01:58] <captine> jimcooncat, would love to set that up eventually
[01:58] <fdoosey> I made the changes listed elsewhere and I have a better resolution
[01:58] <_jason> ubotu: tell samuel about ntfs
[01:58] <jimcooncat> captine, I'd think about a secondhand thinkpad then
[01:58] <IdleOne> !tell samuel about mount
[01:58] <fdoosey> So many thanks, my screen is better.
[01:58] <analfabeta_> _jason, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10429
[01:58] <polpak> fdoosey, it's better but it's broken??
[01:58] <samuel> thanks
[01:58] <Superslash> idle0ne: i did, this is my second. everything works fine until here. it still responds promptly to key presses but it just takes forever to load (hangon its doing something again)
[01:58] <captine> jimcooncat, I'm in Detroit for 1 more week for work, then to Miami for a week.  Where would be the best place to get one?
[01:58] <fdoosey> It WAS broken
[01:59] <_esher> hi
[01:59] <captine> jimcooncat, ebay?
[01:59] <fdoosey> I fixed it
[01:59] <polpak> fdoosey, ah, cool
[01:59] <fiendskull9> Hello
[01:59] <Superslash> honda: look up the gateway 508ge, i've got that mofo with a soundblaster audigy2 value, and a 6600gt
[01:59] <fdoosey> There was another page listing 3 lines to add to xorg.conf
[01:59] <fiendskull9> long question, but here goes.....
[01:59] <_jason> analfabeta_: change your first line from ``include <studio.h>'' to ``#include <stdio.h>'' and try again
[01:59] <jimcooncat> ebay, craig's list, google, froogle
[01:59] <fdoosey> Which worked. I don't want to tempt fate by upping the resolution to 1600x1200
[01:59] <Honda> Superslash: Holy God!
[01:59] <_esher> can ubuntu support boot from ich7r raid array (tyan b5161 barebone with tyan tomcat i7230b mainboard) ... ?
[01:59] <fdoosey> It's a 21 inch monitor, I could go higher
[02:00] <fdoosey> But I'm content now
[02:00] <captine> thanks.  will start looking now
[02:00] <_esher> 5.10 dont work
[02:00] <lucascoala> analfabeta....
[02:00] <Superslash> honda: the hard drive is SATA, which is apparently why the
[02:00] <lucascoala>  stdio.h
[02:00] <IdleOne> captine>  search the phonebook for a small computer shop..they might have some second hand boxes available
[02:00] <Terminus> _esher: i don't think fakeraid works right now.
[02:00] <lucascoala> e nao studio.h
[02:00] <flax^^> hmm, the sound isnt synced at all with the movies :(
[02:00] <analfabeta_> _jason, but i have #include <studio.h>
[02:00] <jimcooncat> fdoosey, I'd get lost
[02:00] <Superslash> install cd wasnt working, but the livecd should be able to partition fine
[02:00] <fiendskull9> I have to ethernet cards, one being etho0 and other being etho1. At my house, i use etho0 just fine, but at my dads, i have to use etho1 for it to work, any idea why? and how i can get etho0 to work here? im thinking its the modem not liking my dlink card.
[02:00] <analfabeta_> _jason, only don't show in pastebin
[02:00] <analfabeta_> =/
[02:00] <Honda> Does anyone know if the live CD supports SATA?
[02:00] <sopido> hello.. my altgr key is not working xev gives ISO_Level3_Shift but i can not use it to get keys like (at) or a pipe.. any ideas?
[02:00] <fdoosey> It helps for my job, we keep many things open
[02:00] <_jason> analfabeta_: stdio not studio, there is no ``u''
[02:00] <Superslash> honda: it does
[02:00] <Honda> Superslash: did you tried the advanced boot feature?
[02:00] <nekostar> oi
[02:00] <analfabeta_> _jason, hmm, tks!
[02:01] <nekostar> i killed sshd process on my remote server on accident
[02:01] <Superslash> _jason: it's stdo, U or U Not, there is no I
[02:01] <nekostar> now i cannot ssh into it,,,,
[02:01] <Honda> Superslash: there must be an option to boot with SATA.
[02:01] <Grark> Grumble Grumbe.
[02:01] <Superslash> honda: afaik the livecd supports sata
[02:01] <nekostar> is there a way to fix it remotely without rebooting?
[02:01] <Superslash> and the installcd was fine
[02:01] <nickrud> youBun2, yeah this is definitly geek time.
[02:01] <Superslash> everything works, it just didnt recognize my partitions, and now this takes very long
[02:01] <sennachie1973> hi all
[02:01] <_jason> Superslash: ?
[02:01] <Superslash> it still responds fine, its not hungup, if i type it appears, but it takes for goddamn ever
[02:02] <fiendskull9> anyone else have problems mounting other fat32 partitions?
[02:02] <Superslash> _jason: "Do or do not, there is no try" - "U or U not, there is no I"
[02:02] <fiendskull9> they seem to load much slower
[02:02] <sennachie1973> nope
[02:02] <fiendskull9> or is ntfs just faster?
[02:02] <fiendskull9> oh well
[02:02] <fiendskull9> im out
[02:02] <NickGarvey> later
[02:02] <fiendskull9> peace ubuntu-heads
[02:02] <sennachie1973> cya
[02:02] <sennachie1973> hey can anyone help with a gnome 2.10 problem?
[02:02] <Honda> Superslash: very strange... How many GB is this SATA?
[02:02] <Superslash> 200
[02:03] <Superslash> 130 for windows, about 50 unformatted for linux
[02:03] <youBun2> nickrud, Yeah, haha
[02:03] <sennachie1973> ?
[02:03] <_esher> Terminus, nice idea i give a try at fakeraid
[02:03] <Honda> But are you trying to install or run from the live cd?
[02:03] <cK^Deathman>  when i try to run the live version, it loads everything up in bios or whatever, but then it freezes with a _ in the top left
[02:03] <Grark> any recommendations on an ftp client? Gftp is giving me grief.
[02:03] <IdleOne> sennachie1973>  if you dont ask a question nope we cant help you
[02:04] <nickrud> youBun2, hang in there, pop up a carefully crafted question, someone will bite eventually
[02:04] <sennachie1973> ok. the question is this.
[02:04] <polpak> Grark, why not use nautilus?
[02:04] <demonseed> hello, i just finished installing Dapper Flight on 2 boxes here, 1 is fine, this one however, in the Computer section, is showing 7 icons for ffloppy, any ideas why or how to get rid of them?
[02:04] <Grark> polpak, maybe cause i'm a newbie and wouldn't know where to find it! :P
[02:04] <flax^^> on some of the videos i have, the sound is _really_ messed up, not synced at all :( any1 know how to correct this?
[02:04] <polpak> Grark, Places->Connect to Server, choose FTP (with login) as the type
[02:04] <Superslash> honda: installing worked fine but didnt recognize that i had partitioned the hdd already, so i was told to use the livecd and gparted to format the linux partitions i want and leave the NTFS alone
[02:04] <htinn> demonseed, sudo nano /etc/fstab
[02:04] <mustard5> demonseed, hehe..I had the same thing :)
[02:04] <Superslash> btw can you stick my name in there when you talk to me, i've got highlight on
[02:05] <demonseed> k, thanks
[02:05] <mustard5> demonseed, as htinn said... edit your /etc/fstab and remove the excess entries
[02:05] <polpak> Grark, put in your username, and the server info, and you should be good to go
[02:05] <sennachie1973> i have a distro running gnome 2.10. i am trying to change my /etc/skel directory. i want a different start icon as my default start icon when creating a new account
[02:05] <Superslash> i'm thinking i should post my issues on the forum
[02:05] <demonseed> k super thanks a bunch!!
[02:05] <Honda> How did you partitioned the unformatted space for linux?
[02:05] <sennachie1973> so i need to know which file in etc/skel dictates the location of the start icon
[02:05] <Honda> did you put a tag on it?
[02:05] <sennachie1973> any ideas?
[02:06] <Honda> Superslash how did you partitioned the linux partition? did you flagged it?
[02:06] <mustard5> sennachie1973, I for one, have no idea :)
[02:06] <robert__> anyone here with easy ubuntu
[02:06] <Honda> ME!!
[02:06] <Honda> lol
[02:06] <robert__> ive been puttin the code in the terminall
[02:06] <sennachie1973> i can rename a file where the icon is and it will take
[02:06] <robert__> but nothin goes
[02:06] <IdleOne> sennachie1973> I second mustard5 :/
[02:06] <nickrud> sennachie1973, you're probably gonna want 2.14, if you want decent admin control of gnome
[02:06] <Grark> polpak, ok mr. smartie, how do I "delete" a network connection?
[02:07] <sennachie1973> but i want to keep the old icon around in case people prefer it
[02:07] <Superslash> honda: i havent yet. thats my problem. i left 50gigs unformatted so when i installed ubuntu i could set up my partitions, but the installcd saw the whole hdd as being unformatted and the livecd hasnt loaded yet
[02:07] <polpak> Grark, you mean remove it from the list?
[02:07] <techrush> how can i look at my system logs to try to determine if something weird has happend to my system ?
[02:07] <Grark> polpak, yes I screwed up I think
[02:07] <sennachie1973> well the distro im using only comes with 2.10
[02:07] <polpak> Grark, right click and select unmount
[02:07] <zzz> Salut   !!       est-il possible de faire tourner Msn messenger (windows) avec wine chez ubuntu  MERCI pour vos rponcess
[02:07] <htinn> sennachie1973, i think it's in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps
[02:07] <nickrud> techrush, less /var/log/*
[02:07] <polpak> !fr
[02:07] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[02:07] <mustard5> robert__, can you elaborate on 'nothing goes'?
[02:07] <IdleOne> sennachie1973>  this is a ubuntu help channel.what distro you using?
[02:07] <nickrud> sennachie1973, which disto?
[02:07] <htinn> "distributor-logo.png"
[02:08] <sennachie1973> so you think thats where it controls it?
[02:08] <Grark> polpak, it's not giving me a menu when I rightclick
[02:08] <lucascoala> hi people... can somebody help me with a FULL DULPLEX support on dapper to use ekiga to make some conversations??? cause a have an error when stablish de conection
[02:08] <sennachie1973> im using pclinuxos with gnome 2.10
[02:08] <polpak> Grark, where are you right clicking?
[02:08] <IdleOne> lucascoala> join #ubuntu+1 for help with Dapper :) and pie !
[02:08] <sennachie1973> i know its an ubuntu channel but the people at pc linux have no idea either
[02:08] <Grark> polpak, on the network I created
[02:08] <lucascoala> tks...
[02:08] <polpak> Grark, click places->Network Servers
[02:08] <nickrud> sennachie1973, ask someone at pclinuxos^W I don't know where
[02:09] <polpak> Grark, in that window, right click the server you created and select unmount
[02:09] <flax^^> i think that its my xvid codec thats a bit sad, the sound/picture isnt synced, any ideas?
[02:09] <Grark> polpak, got it, thank you
[02:09] <IdleOne> sennachie1973>  check and see if they have a forum on the website or a mailing list
[02:09] <Honda> Superslash when you boot with the installation cd... the whole hdd seems to be unformatted right? Isn't it showing only the 50GBs and ignoring the NTFS partition?
[02:09] <twinge> did all those rumors about changing the ubuntu release date settle down?
[02:09] <sennachie1973> well the majority of pclinux people use kde. and couldnt help beyond saying try etc/skel
[02:10] <twinge> where'd that end up?
[02:10] <sennachie1973> ive posted on their forum.
[02:10] <IdleOne> sennachie1973>  I dont think we can be much help either
[02:10] <Grark> polpak, it says it can't display contents.
[02:10] <mustard5> robert__, which method of installation are you using?
[02:10] <techrush> sennachie1973 their is a pclinuxos help channel on efnet but the forum is the best place probably
[02:11] <sennachie1973> ok. how about if it were ubuntu? would there be a file in etc/skel i could edit?
[02:11] <jollyjumper> Anyone got any tips for a application to find wireless accesspoints?
[02:11] <nickrud> sennachie1973, it's probalby in /etc/gconf , or by replacing something in /usr/share/icons
[02:11] <polpak> twinge, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseSchedule
[02:11] <_jason> sennachie1973: what do you mean by start icon?
[02:11] <sennachie1973> well i replaced gconf in the skel and no go.
[02:11] <polpak> Grark, of network servers?
[02:11] <Grark> polpak, no, the server I created.
[02:11] <sennachie1973> main menu icon if you talk gnome
[02:11] <sennachie1973> so im told.
[02:11] <Grark> polpak, I know the info's correct
[02:11] <techrush> gnome isnt well supported in pclinuxos sennachie1973
[02:11] <_jason> sennachie1973: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/distributor-logo.png_backup
[02:11] <polpak> Grark, ok, unmount it and start over
[02:11] <pvd2006> In Ubuntu, I am running Nessus trying to perform security scans of my computer. I have the server and client, but when I try to run the test it only does a portscan and doesnt enable the rest of the tests even though I have them CHECKED before I hit, "Start Scan."
[02:12] <_jason> sennachie1973: without the _backup part :) in ubuntu
[02:12] <h36sa> hey what's the proper way to not autoload a module on boot? I just want to exclude it.. right now I've just moved it which works but isn't the right way :P
[02:12] <sennachie1973> try no support for gnome at all in pclos
[02:12] <polpak> Grark, on the Connect to Server screen what are you selecting?
[02:12] <techrush> basically yes
[02:12] <NeverDream> captine, are you getting everything okay?
[02:12] <jollyjumper> Anyone got any tips for a application to find wireless accesspoints?
[02:13] <nickrud> sennachie1973, maybe /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/distributor-logo.png
[02:13] <nickrud>  ?
[02:13] <Brendon> hi all i'm trying to install the latest nvidia drivers. I ran the .run file and everything ran smoothly, no errors even the sanity check says okay. But when i try to run X, i get the error failed to load module glx, nvidia, kbd, mouse and fails to start. How can i check if the module is actually loaded?
[02:13] <sennachie1973> ok. i dont need to change the icon itself
[02:13] <sennachie1973> just the file that points to it.
[02:13] <ForeverGuest> Brendon:  modprobe -l |grep "nvid"
[02:13] <flax^^> how do i get vlc?
[02:13] <Honda> Jollyjumper: I think I found something
[02:14] <sennachie1973> i know where the icon itself is stored and have hacked that before
[02:14] <flax^^> cant seem to find the compiled code
[02:14] <jollyjumper> cool
[02:14] <_jason> sennachie1973: there is #gnome on freenode and GIMNet, try there
[02:14] <h36sa> come on guys.. how do I exclude bcm43xx from being loaded.. it messes with ndiswrapper
[02:14] <_jason> s/GIMNet/GIMPNet
[02:14] <sennachie1973> ta for the url's re distributor logo but its not there
[02:14] <Honda> jollyjumper thy this page: http://tuxmobil.org/linux_wireless_sniffer.html
[02:14] <Honda> try
[02:14] <jollyjumper> tnx, ill try it
[02:15] <sennachie1973> ta jason. i may do. only reason i tried here was i was told the ubuntu people were helpful. :-D
[02:15] <sennachie1973> i posted on the gnome forum with no response
[02:15] <Grark> polpak, "FOLDER CONTENTS CANNOT BE DISPLAYED"
[02:15] <captine> NeverDream, been lost a couple of times, but my hotel is close to my client, so i can get there easily
[02:15] <sennachie1973> hence asking around here
[02:15] <Brendon> ForeverGuest: that command shows that the nvidia.ko, nvidiafb,ko, and nvidia-agp.ko are loaded but x is still not seeing it. Any ideas why x won't see/use loaded modules?
[02:15] <Honda> Superslash so, when you run the partition aplication, it shows 200GB of non partitioned hdd?
[02:16] <nickrud> sennachie1973, we try, but that may possibly be hardcoded, #gnome does seem like the best bet
[02:16] <captine> NeverDream, am loving the driving.  In SA i have a 1.8 litre golf, here i have a 3.5 litre pontiac
[02:16] <ForeverGuest> What errors in Xorg.log? (I'm new to ubuntu, not sure if that's the right log file)
[02:16] <Superslash> no
[02:16] <captine> NeverDream, it's fun driving
[02:16] <NeverDream> captine, :)
[02:16] <Superslash> honda: when i get to the partition setup on breezy badger 5.10 installcd (not live, actual installcd) it shows the 200gb nonpartitioned hdd
[02:16] <sennachie1973> thanks for the efforts anyhow
[02:16] <sennachie1973> :-D
[02:16] <NeverDream> captine, where are you staying?
[02:16] <polpak> Grark, ok, unmount it and start over
[02:16] <polpak> Grark, on the Connect to Server screen what are you selecting?
[02:17] <Superslash> when i'm in windows Xp pro, service pack 1, it shows 130gigs of NTFS and 50gigs of unformatted space
[02:17] <Brendon> ForeverGuest: log just says that is can't open those modules i listed above.
[02:17] <mustard5> Brendon, where you using this guide? http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75074
[02:17] <Honda> Superslash strange... It should at least shows 130GB of non recognized type or something like that lol
[02:17] <captine> NeverDream, Bloomfield hills, Detroit

[02:18] <ForeverGuest> Brendon: Also, anything that looks relevent in dmesg?
[02:18] <Superslash> youd think it would at least have the decency to hang or something, but its perfectly responsive
[02:18] <Superslash> its just sitting there loading "Enterprise volume management systems"
[02:19] <Grark> polpak, I've gone through it now 6 times.  I'm selecting ftp with login, putting the server address in...port, pass, leaving folder blank (or tried with / and \) name and username
[02:19] <Honda> Superslash trying to figure it out also...
[02:19] <billwray> anyone talking about EKIGA on breezy?

[02:19] <Grark> or is it \\<IP_ADDRESS>
[02:19] <NeverDream> captine, I think we should move this convo, if you don't mind ;)
[02:19] <Brendon> ForeverGuest: i type dmseg and didn't see anything about the nvidia card
[02:19] <Honda> superslash is your windows part ntfs?
[02:20] <captine> sure
[02:20] <Superslash> of course
[02:20] <Superslash> its for playing games
[02:20] <_sHaDe> in #ubuntu-it tehre aren t peolple that can help me
[02:20] <_sHaDe> *there
[02:21] <ForeverGuest> Brendon: Unforunately, I'm running out of ideas -- though, have you done an actual reboot? IIRC, nvidia kernel drivers don't load well after you've booted
[02:21] <nickrud> _sHaDe, I dont use skype or teamspeak, sorry
[02:21] <Honda> superslash what application are you using to part?
[02:21] <billwray> ekiga?
[02:21] <nickrud> or that
[02:21] <Superslash> i've been so bored babysitting this livecd boot that i've polly watched more pornography in the last hour and a half than i have in a day normally
[02:22] <Honda> loooooooooooooooool
[02:22] <_sHaDe> nickrud, thank you dor your interrement
[02:22] <Superslash> honda: i did my formatting during the windows XP install. i just used 130gigs for winxp and didnt even touch the rest
[02:22] <h36sa> come on guys.. how do I exclude bcm43xx from being auto-loaded.. it messes with ndiswrapper
[02:22] <_sHaDe> *interessement
[02:22] <Superslash> left it completely unformatted
[02:22] <nickrud> more than we needed to know, Superslash
[02:22] <Brendon> ForeverGuest: yeah i have reboot, i'll try the guide that was mentioned above. I'm going thru the xorg.log and see it loads modules out of the /usr/lib/xorg/modules dir.
[02:22] <Superslash> nickrud: i havent been hitting it or anything, just looking
[02:22] <Honda> Superslash I know, but what program is on the ubuntu cd for patitioning?
[02:22] <nickrud> lol
[02:22] <polpak> Grark, that should work
[02:22] <ForeverGuest> Brendon: Alright; sorry I wasn't any more help
[02:23] <polpak> Grark, assuming that that is a valid ftp server
[02:23] <h36sa> Superslash: you should make a small winxp, a large media (fat32) and then use the rest for linux installs
[02:23] <Grark> it's valid
[02:23] <polpak> Grark, is it on a lan?
[02:23] <h36sa> keep all your stuff in 1 place that you can always access
[02:23] <Grark> polpak, yes on a lan
[02:23] <Brendon> ForeverGuest: thanks
[02:23] <polpak> Grark, you don't need to specify the port
[02:23] <samuel> what version of kde does that command install?
[02:24] <mustard5> Brendon, try looking over that guide and see if there is anything you missed
[02:24] <DeMoNSeEd> Thanks for the help on the floppy drive glitch, worked like a charm, thanks again!!
[02:24] <polpak> Grark, try just putting in the server and username
[02:24] <Honda> I'm liking this ubuntu stuff lol
[02:24] <Brendon> mustard5: just a quick question, with xorg must i put nvidia modules in the xorg/modules dir?
[02:25] <mustard5> Brendon, I have no idea
[02:25] <samuel> What version does the kde comand install?
[02:25] <samuel> 3.4 or 3.5?
[02:25] <Grark> polpak, when I took the "errror" and pasted it into firefox, I got a "no PASV" error
[02:25] <Grark> polpak, so it might be related to that
[02:25] <polpak> Grark, oh.. that is a problem
[02:25] <_jason> !kde3.5
[02:25] <ubotu> (you might want !kde3.5.1) To upgrade to KDE3.5, Follow the instructions at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-35.php (add the deb... line to your sources.list). Then "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade".
[02:26] <SoulPropagation> How do I change the window border theme?
[02:26] <Grark> back to my original question :)  Any good ftp clients for linux?
[02:26] <SoulPropagation> ....Without using the theme mgr?
[02:26] <polpak> Grark, the FTP server you are running doesn't support passive mode
[02:26] <polpak> Grark, the problem isn't the client, it's the server
[02:26] <Grark> gtp gets in just fine
[02:26] <nickrud> sampan, breezy is 3.4
[02:26] <SoulPropagation> Grark: /usr/bin/ftp, PlacesMenu>ConnectToServer
[02:26] <mustard5> SoulPropagation, why without the theme manager?
[02:26] <nickrud> sampan, 3.4.3
[02:26] <Grark> polpak, gftp gets in just fine
[02:26] <misterii> hey, why can't I make any directories with my default username?
[02:26] <polpak> Grark, do you administrate the ftp server?
[02:26] <Grark> polpak, yes
[02:26] <SoulPropagation> mustard5: Because I'm not using Metacity
[02:27] <polpak> Grark, can you configure it to allow passive mode?
[02:27] <_jason> misterii: where are you trying to make them?
[02:27] <Grark> polpak, but it's hardcoded into the hardware
[02:27] <mustard5> SoulPropagation, k
[02:27] <polpak> Grark, oh
[02:27] <Grark> polpak, no
[02:27] <nickrud> never have had decent luck with apt-get.org , or any of them
[02:27] <polpak> Grark, well gftp will work fine, but you have to uncheck the use passive mode option
[02:28] <misterii> _jason, I tried to put it to home/misteri/ //*thats my default username*//
[02:28] <Grark> polpak, no, I'm getting "not a directory" error with it when I try to transfer a file.
[02:28] <polpak> Grark, non-passive FTP is very antiquated, and problematic for several different kinds of network configurations
[02:28] <_jason> misterii: what command did you use and what was the output?
[02:29] <Nameeater> how can I make update run less hard out (with like nice) ?
[02:29] <Nameeater> updatedb*
[02:29] <misterii> I tried to make it with ubuntu's file manager, permission denied
[02:29] <captine> how do i open a terminal window?
[02:29] <polpak> Grark, well that would indicate that either the path you're trying to upload to is invalid or it is a file, not a directory
[02:29] <_jason> misterii: try mkdir foo in a terminal and see what the error is
[02:29] <polpak> captine, applications->accessories->terminal
[02:29] <_jason> captine: applicatoins menu > accessories > terminal
[02:30] <_jason> i took longer and I didn't even spell it right
[02:30] <Honda> Superslash could not figure out a solution, pass me your e-mail and I'll try to find something about it...
[02:30] <captine> poing_, _jason i can't believe i've looked everywhere and haven't seen it.  Must be blind.  thanks
[02:30] <captine> :)
[02:30] <ya> anyonee heere/
[02:31] <mustard5> ya, we are all here
[02:31] <tisuang> hello everybody
[02:31] <nickrud> you could edit /etc/crond.daily/slocate and add a nice value; but I thought nice was brought in by cron somewhere
[02:31] <ya> im new at this
[02:31] <Honda> me too lol
[02:31] <Grark> polpak, so I can ONLY transfer directories?
[02:31] <polpak> Grark, no
[02:31] <ya> r u guys on a laptop?
[02:31] <nickrud> Nameeater, see above ^
[02:31] <Honda> I'm
[02:32] <mustard5> ya, not everyone no...some are though
[02:32] <polpak> Grark, you can't transfer a file into another file, and you can't transfer files into a directory that doesn't exist
[02:32] <ya> kool
[02:32] <Grark> polpak, I'm trying to take....wait.
[02:32] <Grark> polpak, I think I get it.
[02:32] <Grark> brb
[02:32] <te_iubesc> hello every one... help some body.. can i get a little help in private?
[02:32] <Honda> yes, very! It also recognized my wireless card... awesome
[02:32] <Nameeater> nickrud: thanks, its locking up the sytem when it runs, tho I'm wondering if the HDD is on the blink :/
[02:32] <ya> do any of u havee a there account?
[02:32] <polpak> !anyone
[02:32] <ubotu> probably 90% of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? <hint>
[02:33] <mustard5> te_iubesc, best ask the question in this channel..so everyone can see it
[02:33] <te_iubesc> mustard5 okay :) sorry
[02:33] <Grark> polpak, no that didn't work
[02:33] <polpak> te_iubesc, if someone can help you they will
[02:33] <Grark> polpak, I was trying to drag a file onto a directory remote
[02:33] <SoulPropagation> Is there a way to have global hotkeys? E.g. I can press Super+Arrow to go back/forward in XMMS
[02:33] <te_iubesc> i have a problem.. i dont have anough space.. and is not login anymore in.. what can i do.?
[02:33] <ya> doees someeone have a there account
[02:33] <Grark> polpak, local file to remote hd.
[02:33] <misterii> _jason, the problem is, I can't access my desktop from the console
[02:33] <polpak> Grark, try to change into that directory on the remote side first
[02:34] <_jason> misterii: 'cd Desktop'
[02:34] <polpak> misterii, or if you aren't in your home dir 'cd ~/Desktop
[02:34] <Honda> ya there account?
[02:34] <mustard5> te_iubesc, hmmm...what were you doing just prior to it happening that caused the drive to fill up?
[02:34] <Grark> polpak, I did.
[02:34] <Grark> like I said...just weird.
[02:34] <polpak> Grark, did that work?
[02:35] <nickrud> Nameeater, I start work at 7:30, which is when anacron starts up updatedb ; personally it's an annoyance until I alter anacron's start time but it never locked up anything
[02:35] <polpak> Grark, when you double click the directory you want to upload the file to, does it change your remote path, or give an error?
[02:35] <Grark> Could not change local directory to /home/usER/downloads/vid1/vid10/vid.avi: Not a directory
[02:35] <tisuang> someone here know how to use tv-out with rules in gnome?
[02:36] <Grark> polpak, god I'm dumb.
[02:36] <SoulPropagation> Grark: Ummmm, dude, of course an .. never mind.
[02:36] <polpak> Grark, =)
[02:36] <te_iubesc> aaa i quess instaling some packeges .. i have 7 giga memorry .. a i was adding some programs.. i think all programs :) and .. then not enough memmory . to login
[02:36] <jeremy_c> I just installed ubuntu for the first time and I don't remember it asking me for a root password and I cannot login, did I miss something?
[02:36] <polpak> !tell jeremy_c about root
[02:36] <jeremy_c> polpak: thanks.
[02:36] <_jason> jeremy_c: what do you mean you cannot login?  didn't you setup a user and a password for that user?
[02:36] <polpak> jeremy_c, ubuntu users don't use root, we use sudo =)
[02:37] <fiendskull9> where do i change the splash screen?
[02:37] <mustard5> te_iubesc, you were installing everything?
[02:37] <jeremy_c> I said that wrong, I can login.
[02:37] <polpak> !usplash
[02:37] <ubotu> well, usplash is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USplashCustomizationHowto
[02:37] <Blippe> in kde i am able to define a picture for a folder with a .directory-file, is there a "substitute" in gnome?
[02:37] <jeremy_c> I cannot login or su as root.
[02:37] <te_iubesc> mustard5 yeah.. preaty stupid a?
[02:37] <misterii> _jason, I can't copy files/make dirs/etc with my account default (Misteri)on  xUbuntu
[02:37] <Nameeater> nickrod: probably my harddrive, better start burning stuff to dvd :/
[02:37] <_jason> jeremy_c: oh okay, just see ubotu's private message then
[02:37] <jeremy_c> polpak: I use sudo as well on mac os x and my freebsd, just concerned me I could not root.
[02:37] <mustard5> te_iubesc, wll I suppose you might try uninstalling something via the command line :)
[02:37] <te_iubesc> did i mention i`m new in lynux :)
[02:37] <_jason> misterii: pastebin what 'mkdir foo' does
[02:37] <Grark> polpak, it had to do with directory/filename length on the hardware.  When I shortened it, it worked fine.
[02:37] <Grark> so gftp is working again
[02:37] <misterii> it does ok
[02:37] <te_iubesc> mustard5 how can i use console instead of login screen?
[02:37] <polpak> Grark, ah.. Glad to hear it
[02:38] <nickrud> Nameeater, maybe, um a silly question: you do have dma enabled (I get bit by this on every install)
[02:38] <fiendskull9> is there a faster ftp client than gftp
[02:38] <_jason> misterii: then that means you can make directories
[02:38] <jeremy_c> ah, ok. the sudo is fine for me. Just had me concerned.
[02:38] <Grark> polpak, last question
[02:38] <misterii> but I worry of it not working on GUI
[02:38] <fiendskull9> i can only get like 200 kbps with it on my server
[02:38] <mustard5> te_iubesc, ctrl + alt + f1  will take you to a console login prompt
[02:38] <Grark> can you do a batch renaming of files in a directory?
[02:38] <misterii> only as root I can
[02:38] <polpak> Grark, yes
[02:38] <_jason> misterii: where are you trying to create the directories?
[02:38] <te_iubesc> mustard5 thanks :) i'm happy now
[02:38] <jeremy_c> hm, however, that will not allow me to run the update. It wants a root password, so I have to at least set the password.
[02:38] <Grark> change "sesame street" to "SS"
[02:38] <_jason> Grark: man rename :)
[02:38] <Nameeater> nickrud I have no idea, but it hasnt done this before and I think it is doing it on windows now
[02:38] <Grark> dangnabbit.
[02:38] <_jason> jeremy_c: no, use sudo.  What update?
[02:38] <Grark> thanks again guys
[02:39] <ya> can we just talk about anything?
[02:39] <mustard5> te_iubesc, come back if you have problems
[02:39] <_jason> ya: no, support only here.  Anything else in #ubuntu-offtopic please :)
[02:39] <polpak> jeremy_c, you mean the package updator?
[02:39] <mustard5> te_iubesc, you can get to irc from console too you know
[02:39] <Honda> Hail Brows, was a funny time! Thanks for all the chat! have to go, maybe I'll be back tomorrow! Cya all!
[02:39] <jeremy_c> _jason: when I logged into Gnome for the first time, it has an applet that runs. It said 65 updates.
[02:39] <polpak> jeremy_c, you just use your own password
[02:39] <Nameeater> I installed a game with Starforce copy protection that hid the game files (and I cant delete them) and my HDD has been acting up ever since. even on linux
[02:39] <jeremy_c> Clicking it, it wants the password.
[02:39] <_jason> jeremy_c: your user password
[02:39] <misterii> _jason,  trying to do it as misteri gives permission denied
[02:39] <jeremy_c> _jason: ok. For some reason, I just thought it would be the root password.
[02:39] <ya> i have another question
[02:39] <Nameeater> I may have to do a complete format at some stage I think
[02:40] <te_iubesc> mustard5 aaa when shod i do that ? when he show me the screen whith login ? is not working ctrl+alt+f1
[02:40] <_jason> misterii: I have no idea what you mean by ``it''
[02:40] <SoulPropagation> Is there a way to have global hotkeys? E.g. I can press Super+Arrow to go back/forward in XMMS
[02:40] <jeremy_c> _jason: yup, as you know, that worked. thanks!
[02:40] <Carl_FK> firefox wants me to install java manually from here: http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp - what is the non sun thing in the ubuntu repos I can use?
[02:40] <te_iubesc> mustard5 i know :) i'm using vmware :) for ubuntu :) a virtual machine
[02:40] <polpak> jeremy_c, it's trying to do a gksudo command,  only users in the admin group are allowed to sudo, and even then only if they supply their password
[02:40] <misterii> _jason, mkdir (it) as misteri gives permission denied
[02:40] <threeseas> hello
[02:41] <polpak> !tell Carl_FK  about java
[02:41] <nickrud> Nameeater, check out smartmontools , they report potential disk failures
[02:41] <_jason> misterii: can you pastebin this please?
[02:41] <mustard5> te_iubesc, its not working at the login screen?
[02:41] <te_iubesc> nope
[02:41] <misterii> _jason, its just one string and its in finnish so nr
[02:41] <mustard5> te_iubesc, hmmm
[02:42] <te_iubesc> mustard5 same heare hmmm :)
[02:42] <Nameeater> nickrud: thanks
[02:42] <_jason> misterii: I just wanted to make sure I knew what you did, can you paste the line where you entered the command?
[02:42] <nickrud> Nameeater, may you have the same results I did: nothing wrong :)
[02:42] <Carl_FK> !javadebs
[02:42] <threeseas> had a power outage the other day and now I cann't login but get some sort of message about session only lasting 10 seconds --- however am able to login a terminal and after rm some file I'm able to startx... only its not my desktop
[02:42] <threeseas> how can I fix this
[02:42] <threeseas> ?
[02:43] <ya> i have a question!
[02:43] <_jason> ya: ask!
[02:43] <pvd2006> How do you tar -xf filename into a certain directory?
[02:43] <Nameeater> hehe I hope so ^^
[02:43] <mustard5> te_iubesc, I'm thinking about it, something has to be removed to make space...but I'm not sure about the how to remove and what to remove
[02:43] <polpak> pvd2006, cd directory && tar -xf /path/to/file.tar
[02:44] <pvd2006> Thanks
[02:44] <te_iubesc> mustard5 same heare... i cant use the console.:( cant do nothing :(
[02:44] <_jason> pvd2006: -C works as well
[02:44] <misterii> misteri@Dacave:~/mp3$ mkdir whack
[02:44] <misterii> mkdir: hakemiston "whack" luominen ei onnistu: Lupa evtty
[02:44] <ya> i have a myspace and i loaded a picture off the internet to a file and then uploaded it on myspacee but says it cant upload it,please help.
[02:45] <mustard5> te_iubesc, I've never used vmware either so I have no idea how it starts up
[02:45] <_jason> misterii: ls -ld ~/mp3
[02:45] <ForeverGuest> te_iubesc: What wwere you looking for?
[02:45] <mustard5> te_iubesc, if it was a grub startup I would say go to 'recovery mode' from grub..but I guess thats not an option
[02:45] <ForeverGuest> te_iubesc: I've been playing a bit with vmware lately...
[02:45] <misterii> _jason what do you aim by that?
[02:46] <te_iubesc> is saying when i log in GDM could not write to your autorization file
[02:46] <mustard5> ForeverGuest, te_iubesc has filled up his partition completely and now can't access ubuntu
[02:46] <_jason> misterii: to check the permissions on that folder
[02:46] <mustard5> ForeverGuest, he's got no hard drive space left after 'installing everything'
[02:46] <te_iubesc> mustard5 vmware is a virtual machine.. so i can have windows and linux in the same time..
[02:46] <pvd2006> _jason, so tar -xfC then what?
[02:47] <pvd2006> _jason, can you give me an example
[02:47] <_jason> pvd2006: I think you would do tar -C directory -xf blah
[02:47] <ForeverGuest> te_iubesc: From what I've seen, if you set up a dynamic resizing partition, and you reach the maximum size, there's not much you can do
[02:47] <ya> help me!
[02:47] <misterii> _jason, drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4096 2006-03-18 03:19 /home/misteri/mp3
[02:47] <te_iubesc> ForeverGuest vmware is cool i like it.. so.. i wana learn linux.. so i put ubuntu.. then problems:)
[02:47] <fiveiron> so what would be a good mailing list if I have a problem with flex in dapper?
[02:47] <ForeverGuest> te_iubesc: except maybe log in through terminal if possible, and try to delete files...
[02:47] <te_iubesc> ForeverGuest yeap :(
[02:47] <mustard5> ForeverGuest, he says the ctrl + alt + f1 is not functioning at the login screen
[02:47] <themuffenmann> what's up guys..
[02:47] <te_iubesc> ForeverGuest i wana log in a terminal.. but i dont know how...
[02:47] <misterii> its root, I know. But how to give permission to all folders to "misteri"?
[02:47] <pvd2006> _jason, ok so tar -C directory -xf filename
[02:48] <mustard5> ForeverGuest, what other method can he use in vmware to get to console?
[02:48] <nickrud> fiveiron, The project web page is at http://lex.sf.net/
[02:48] <_jason> pvd2006: yeah
[02:48] <ForeverGuest> mustard5: Let me dig for a second
[02:48] <te_iubesc> ForeverGuest i need something like safe mode in windows
[02:48] <pvd2006> thanks
[02:48] <_jason> misterii: what is root?
[02:48] <ubuntu> nick cold
[02:48] <aleksander> @jason root is superuser
[02:48] <polpak> misterii, sudo chown -R misteri:misteri /home/misteri/mp3
[02:48] <_jason> aleksander: :)
[02:49] <aleksander> as root you're a master of the system
[02:49] <ya> someone have a private conversation wit me,i need help
[02:49] <aleksander> can do anything
[02:49] <mustard5> ya, ask your question in this channel
[02:49] <_jason> misterii: you mean the owner of ~/mp3 is root and you want to change the owner to misterii?
[02:49] <ya> i need help on myspace\
[02:49] <themuffenmann> to the computer, root is god..root can do anything, anytime, anwhere
[02:50] <fiveiron> uh
[02:50] <fiveiron> are the repositories all broken?
[02:50] <mustard5> ya, your problem seems to be myspace related..not really ubuntu related..what is the filetype you are uploading?
[02:50] <ya> homee
[02:50] <misterii> I want that misteri will have all the same rights to directories as root
[02:50] <themuffenmann> myspace sucks
[02:50] <ya> *home
[02:51] <IdleOne> fiveiron> repos working good for me
[02:51] <_jason> misterii: you don't want that because it is a bad idea
[02:51] <ya> every time i click browse an error occures
[02:51] <mustard5> ya, what browser are you using?
[02:51] <_jason> misterii: misterii gets /home/misterri, root gets everything
[02:51] <fiveiron> yeah... mine are all broken
[02:52] <aleksander> what browse you click?
[02:52] <nickrud> fiveiron, I don't think so, I used the us one about an hour ago
[02:52] <aleksander> my repos are fine
[02:52] <ya> huh?
[02:52] <IdleOne> !repos
[02:52] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[02:52] <aleksander> nothing broken in dapper
[02:52] <purpleidea> would someone mind doing: "sudo apt-get install soundconverter" and checking if when you add a file it actually appears because i'm getting nothing! i just want to convert a flac to mp3 :(
[02:52] <mustard5> ya, what is the name of the browser are you using?
[02:52] <_jason> misterii: do you mind pasting the output of 'ls -ld ~/mp3' and we can see whether root owns that.  And if he does we will change that
[02:52] <ya> just thee myspace browser

[02:53] <IdleOne> fiveiron>  go here  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 and replace your /etc/apt/sources.list with the one on the wiki
[02:53] <polpak> _jason, which was why I told him the chown it
[02:53] <mustard5> ya, what does the error say?
[02:53] <IdleOne> fiveiron>  then do sudo apt-get update
[02:54] <_jason> polpak: ah thanks

[02:54] <_jason> misterii: so everything is working fine now then?
[02:55] <nickrud> Comrade_Sergei, breezy (5.10)?
[02:55] <mustard5> te_iubesc, any idea what you don't need to have installed..or a big file you can delete that you don't need?
[02:55] <Comrade_Sergei> void^ what
[02:55] <Comrade_Sergei> yes nickrud
[02:55] <Comrade_Sergei> remember me
[02:55] <purpleidea> hey can you do: "sudo apt-get install soundconverter" and check if when you add a file in that program it actually appears because i'm getting nothing! i just want to convert a flac to mp3 :(
[02:55] <te_iubesc> mustard5 nope :)
[02:55] <mustard5> te_iubesc, well you will have to find something :)
[02:55] <te_iubesc> mustard5 i was adding programs .. for internet , aplication, games... all
[02:55] <te_iubesc> mustard5 form the cd:)
[02:56] <nickrud> Comrade_Sergei, if so, sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-mad
[02:56] <te_iubesc> mustard5 all from ubuntu
[02:56] <ForeverGuest> te_iubesc: This might be work, but I think I've thought of a way. Not sure it'll work though, as I haven't tried it
[02:56] <rob138> what would be a program i could use to cut out samples from mp3s and make soundclips from them?
[02:56] <mustard5> te_iubesc, ok..so pick something to unistall...name an application
[02:56] <nickrud> Comrade_Sergei, you need to read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[02:56] <ForeverGuest> te_iubesc: Did you install from an ISO, or an actual CD (or did I miss it, and you're now at least partially logged in?)
[02:56] <te_iubesc> mustard5 hmm where is apliction ?
[02:56] <ya> waiting for a reply mustard5
[02:56] <mustard5> ForeverGuest, he is in command line now
[02:56] <te_iubesc> ForeverGuest yeap.. from ubuntu .. ad programs
[02:56] <mustard5> ForeverGuest, the problem now is what to unistall/delete
[02:57] <ForeverGuest> Ah, okay.  That's good, because my answer was going to be convoluted ;)
[02:57] <te_iubesc> i think he get all that from cd
[02:57] <te_iubesc> ForeverGuest 10x :)
[02:57] <te_iubesc> mustard5 where i find programs?
[02:57] <rob138> what would be a program i could use to cut out samples from mp3s and make soundclips from them?
[02:57] <ya> waiting mustard5
[02:57] <mustard5> ya, well I'm not sure what the problem is
[02:57] <ForeverGuest> Question for the room: Does anyone have advice on fixing a borked sudoers file that doesn't require a rescue disk?
[02:57] <thenetduck> hey is this server the same as irc.freenode.net
[02:57] <mustard5> ya, what is the file type?
[02:57] <_jason> ForeverGuest: boot in recovery mode
[02:58] <mustard5> ya, where is the file stored in your folders?
[02:58] <polpak> ForeverGuest, boot in single user mode?
[02:58] <void^> rob138: audacity
[02:58] <ya> wat do ya mean?
[02:58] <polpak> ForeverGuest, or rather recovery mode
[02:58] <pvd2006> whoops..., I just accidently extracted 1500 files to my desktop....
[02:58] <ForeverGuest> _jason: vmware makes that difficult
[02:58] <pvd2006> any shortcut to undo that
[02:58] <Comrade_Sergei> thanks nickrud it works
[02:58] <misterii> _jason, oh sorry... Yes, everything 0K
[02:58] <rob138> void^, thanks
[02:58] <mustard5> ForeverGuest, you got a root password?
[02:58] <te_iubesc> mustard... i dont know ehere is the file..
[02:58] <misterii> how do I give permission to /home/misteri/ to misteri?
[02:58] <te_iubesc> mustard5 they where default
[02:59] <purpleidea> misterii: chown
[02:59] <ForeverGuest> mustard5:  No, I rather wish I did. I hadn't set it yet; was going to write after I finished tweaking the sudoers file
[02:59] <_jason> misterii: what does ls -ld /home/misteri say now?
[02:59] <purpleidea> misterii: or chmod
[02:59] <polpak> misterii, chown -R misteri:misteri /home/misteri
[02:59] <ForeverGuest> mustard5: (Clearly, I did things in the wrong order... )
[02:59] <ya> wat do ya mean
[02:59] <Frogzoo> misterii: sudo chown misteri /home/misteri
[02:59] <polpak> misterii, you need to sudo it
[02:59] <mustard5> ya, what type of file is it?  a jpeg or a .doc file or what?
[03:00] <LogicalDash> I've created a FAT16 partition and put some files from Windows on it, so that I could edit them in either Windows or Ubuntu. The files aren't showing up in Ubuntu. What's wrong?
[03:00] <ya> jpeg.
[03:00] <te_iubesc> mustard5 question how can i enable mouse form console?
[03:00] <te_iubesc> from
[03:00] <te_iubesc> :)
[03:00] <mustard5> te_iubesc, I have no idea
[03:00] <_jason> ForeverGuest: are you running windows now?
[03:00] <mustard5> ya, does it have a .jpeg extension on it?
[03:00] <purpleidea> hey, anyone know how to convert from flac to mp3? soundconverter isnt working
[03:00] <ya> i dont think so
[03:01] <ForeverGuest> _jason polpak:I feel silly, apparently I can just reboot the vmware and still access the boot list...  recovery mode does it
[03:01] <mustard5> ya, try or a .jpg?
[03:01] <Comrade_Sergei> whats a good media player for ubuntu thats equal in usibility to windows media player
[03:01] <Frogzoo> !tell LogicalDash about vfat
[03:01] <purpleidea> sergei: mplayer
[03:01] <ds[de] > LogicalDash: just the files or the whole partition?
[03:01] <NeverDream> captine, are you able to get repos?
[03:01] <ForeverGuest> _jason: gentoo. I'm thinking about switching, so wanted tocheck it out
[03:01] <te_iubesc> mustard5 okay
[03:01] <mustard5> ya, try renaming the file with either a .jpeg or .jpg on the end of it
[03:01] <IdleOne> !tell Comrade_Sergei about restrictedformats
[03:01] <Comrade_Sergei> purpleidea?
[03:01] <purpleidea> yes?
[03:01] <LogicalDash> !tell ds[de]  just the files, I can see the partition.
[03:01] <Comrade_Sergei> i no about that
[03:01] <IdleOne> !tell Comrade_Sergei about mplayer
[03:01] <mustard5> te_iubesc, I don't know whats on your system, so I don't know what you can delete or uninstall
[03:01] <ya> kk thanks
[03:02] <mustard5> te_iubesc, that is something you have to work out
[03:02] <Comrade_Sergei> that one helps
[03:02] <pvd2006> how do you remove all the files from a certain directory that lets say has a .NASL extension. I dont see any options for rm to select to remove only a certain file type from a directory.
[03:02] <purpleidea> remove *.NASL
[03:02] <pvd2006> lol
[03:02] <Frogzoo> LogicalDash: you can see the mount point or you can see the partition? does the partition show up in 'mount'
[03:02] <pvd2006> easy enough..
[03:02] <purpleidea> rm *.NASL
[03:02] <te_iubesc> mustard5 but.. at least tell me how to uninstal .. i will do everything else
[03:02] <ds[de] > LogicalDash are you sure the permissions are set correctly? try listing the files with sudo
[03:02] <mustard5> te_iubesc, sudo apt-get remove <packagename>
[03:02] <Phlosten> rm -r *.NASL to recurse the subdirectories
[03:03] <Phlosten> i think
[03:03] <LogicalDash> Frogzoo: the partition shows up in the disks manager if that's what you mean.
[03:03] <purpleidea> Phlosten: can you check something please?
[03:03] <te_iubesc> mustard5 thanks
[03:03] <pvd2006> purpleidea, bash: /bin/rm: Argument list too long
[03:03] <Frogzoo> LogicalDash: no - you need to mount the partition - read the msg from ubotu & follow the instructions
[03:03] <Phlosten> purpleidea,  whats that?
[03:03] <Frogzoo> !tell LogicalDash about vfat
[03:03] <purpleidea> pvd2006: type "rm *.NASL"
[03:03] <nickrud> pvd2006, how many files do you have !!!!
[03:03] <pvd2006> 1500
[03:04] <axiom> Hi, whenever I try to use an application compiled against gtk, i get this warning: "Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate loadable module in module_path: "libsmooth.so"," Any ideas about how to fix it?
[03:04] <LogicalDash> Ah, sorry guys, guess I should actually read what shows up in new tabs.
[03:04] <purpleidea> phlosten: sudo apt-get install soundconverter
[03:04] <purpleidea> open the program, tell me if it actually works and can add a file please
[03:04] <ds[de] > LogicalDash: need any help mounting it?
[03:04] <mustard5> axiom, look for a package for libsmooth in synaptic?
[03:04] <Phlosten> purpleidea, i would if I was in Ubuntu atm
[03:04] <axiom> mustard5: no suck luck
[03:05] <Zodo> Say, can anyone tell me how to remove a package with apt on a partition that won't boot?  I'm assuming that I'll have to use a boot CD.  The svgatextmode package is kernel panicking things.
[03:05] <LogicalDash> ds[de] : First I gotta install this thing...
[03:05] <mustard5> axiom, packages.ubuntu.com  has a search function for what files are in what package
[03:05] <axiom> mustard5: to clarify, i searched with apt-cache
[03:05] <purpleidea> phlosten thanks anyways:(
[03:05] <purpleidea> anyone one using ubuntu and apt can test something for 30 sec please?
[03:05] <mustard5> axiom, do you have all repositories enabled?
[03:05] <axiom> mustard5: thanks, ill take a look
[03:05] <axiom> mustard5: yes
[03:05] <IdleOne> purpleidea> ?
[03:05] <te_iubesc> how can i see how big is a file?
[03:05] <mustard5> axiom, k
[03:05] <purpleidea> idleOne: sudo apt-get install soundconverter
[03:05] <IdleOne> k
[03:05] <_jason> te_iubesc: du -h file
[03:05] <ya> it says an unknown error has occured
[03:06] <ds[de] > LogicalDash: k, this might help you after you installed it : http://www.psychocats.net/linux/mountwindows.php
[03:06] <purpleidea> idleOne: when you open the program, click "add" and see if a file actually appears in the list. it's like the buttons do nothing :(
[03:06] <pvd2006> lol
[03:06] <te_iubesc> _jason thanks
[03:06] <pvd2006> it keeps giving me argument list too long
[03:06] <mustard5> ya, what says that?
[03:06] <pvd2006> :-\
[03:06] <Swedish_Chef> is there a patchlist of what's applied to ubuntu's 2.6.15-18 kernel?
[03:06] <EricBetts> Is the ubuntu kernel a bzimage?
[03:06] <ya> myspace upload center
[03:06] <polpak> pvd2006, you can do          find /path/to/huge/list/of/files -name '*.NASL' | xargs rm
[03:06] <karioz> hola
[03:06] <Swedish_Chef> EricBetts: yes
[03:06] <karioz> algen por hay
[03:06] <EricBetts> Swedish_Chef, thanks
[03:06] <_jason> !es
[03:06] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[03:07] <polpak> pvd2006, if the files you want to remove are called .NASL
[03:07] <ds[de] > Swedish_Chef: are you looking for a changelog?
[03:07] <nocti> hello
[03:07] <mustard5> ya, something is wrong with that file I would say
[03:07] <polpak> pvd2006, but be careful, cause it'll also zap any files in subdirectories with that name
[03:07] <ya> hold on
[03:07] <threeseas> had a power outage the other day and now I cann't login but get some sort of message about session only lasting 10 seconds --- however am able to login a terminal and after rm some file I'm able to startx... only its not my desktop
[03:07] <nocti> how can i update/install packages on a box with no internet connection? thanks
[03:07] <IdleOne> purpleidea> gimme a sec
[03:07] <Swedish_Chef> ds[de] : not exactly. i've seen the changelog, but i was wondering if there was a list/description of the patches applied to the vanilla kernel to make ubuntu's kernel
[03:07] <threeseas> and the fix is ---
[03:07] <axiom> mustard5: no packages are listed as having it
[03:07] <threeseas> sudo rm -rf /home/[user] /.ICEauthority
[03:07] <purpleidea> idleOne: no problem, thanks!
[03:08] <mustard5> axiom, I guess you need to install it manually then
[03:08] <nickrud> threeseas, multiple pints
[03:08] <Swedish_Chef> ds[de] : i normally run -ck but i've been running the ubuntu kernel ever since i upgraded to dapper...just to test it out, i guess
[03:08] <CppIsOnLinux> how do i get my pcmcia Netgear wireless card to work?
[03:08] <axiom> mustard5: i'll look into it, thanks
[03:08] <karioz> algen hlabla espaol
[03:08] <Swedish_Chef> i don't want to lose any functionality/convenient patches by going back to ck
[03:08] <polpak> !es
[03:08] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[03:08] <ds[de] > Swedish_Chef: now that you mention it, that *would* be intersting
[03:08] <_jason> karioz: /join #ubuntu-es
[03:08] <ya> i browsed it and it showed the same thing
[03:09] <Comrade_Sergei> idleone purpleidea do you have one that has a library feature such as WMP
[03:09] <IdleOne> purpleidea>  I tried it and it didnt add the file but only because it is a .txt file. I dont have any music on this box but it did tell me unknown
[03:09] <CppIsOnLinux> i have the drivers downloaded, but i dont really know what direction to go from there.
[03:09] <farous> anyone tried the new fglrx drivers?
[03:09] <tisuang> Hello! Who knows how can I create rules for the nvdia tv-out in gnome???

[03:10] <purpleidea> comrade sergei: are you using ubuntu?
[03:10] <IdleOne> purpleidea>  nope I dont know sorry
[03:10] <te_iubesc> 10x
[03:10] <pvd2006> trying to delete all these .nasl files I accidently extracted to my desktop. I cant do it with my desktop because it freezes up since there is over 1500 files
[03:10] <purpleidea> idleone: thanks anyways
[03:10] <polpak> pvd2006, ok

[03:11] <rob> network manager with wpa support, any unoffical package for that yet?
[03:11] <ya> mustard5: it still showed up wheen i browsed it
[03:11] <nickrud> corvax, I don't think easyubuntu claims to support dapper, try #easyubuntu
[03:11] <Mnemic> Guys, i'm trying to ./configure php5 and i get an error msg "configure: error: cannot find output from lex; giving up"

[03:11] <_jason> Mnemic: php is in the repositories
[03:11] <captine> NeverDream, if i get an external drive, and use rsync, will it be able to do it over a couple of days, with reboots in between?
[03:11] <corvax> ill do it the ole fashioned way
[03:11] <_jason> Mnemic: php5 is in the repositories
[03:11] <nickrud> corvax, make-jpkg?
[03:12] <ya> the browser is but it wont upload
[03:12] <Mnemic> hmm
[03:12] <Mnemic> ok _jason thanks :)
[03:12] <NeverDream> captine, you're going to need a BIG drive
[03:12] <_jason> ubotu: tell Mnemic about lamp
[03:12] <NeverDream> captine, but if you have a good download speed, then you should be able to
[03:12] <_jason> Mnemic: you can follow that guide if you are setting up lamp, just change all the php4's to php5
[03:12] <NeverDream> captine, if you leave it on overnight :S
[03:13] <IdleOne> purpleidea> see if this helps you www.mp3-converter.com/linux
[03:13] <pppoe_dude> is xubuntu production stable?
[03:13] <Mnemic> Damn, and already installed Apache+mySQL :/
[03:13] <mustard5> ya, there is a command you can use in console to determine what 'filetype' a particular file is
[03:13] <te_iubesc> i want to get de login windows again from console .. startx ?
[03:13] <mustard5> ya, its the 'file' command
[03:13] <polpak> mustard5, file filename
[03:13] <kinovari> Anyone know if the default kdevelop.deb will have the whole php chunk?
[03:13] <IdleOne> purpleidea> http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Audio/gnormalize-3129.shtml
[03:13] <captine> NeverDream, is a 160 gig big enough?
[03:13] <mustard5> ya, try the file command
[03:14] <ya> kk
[03:14] <nickrud> te_iubesc, if you're in a virtual console, sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart
[03:14] <captine> :)
[03:14] <mustard5> ya, type man file for instructions in terminal
[03:14] <purpleidea> idleone: will check it out...
[03:14] <te_iubesc> nickrud aham thanks
[03:14] <LogicalDash> Thanks guys, it seems to have worked. Only problem remaining is that I've got an empty directory left over from a botched attempt at mounting--what's the shell command to remove it?
[03:14] <IdleOne> purpleidea>  dont know if that will help but its worth checking out
[03:14] <NeverDream> captine, I should hope so ;)
[03:14] <mustard5> ya, basically its as polpak says above   file yourfilename
[03:14] <polpak> LogicalDash, rmdir directory
[03:14] <LogicalDash> polpak: Thanks!
[03:14] <polpak> LogicalDash, sure
[03:15] <mustard5> ya, that will tell you what type of file this things if for sure
[03:15] <purpleidea> idleone: been looking eerywhere, the program i had you apt, is supposed to be the shit, but it;s not working: P what the !
[03:15] <ya> it doeesnt work either
[03:15] <IdleOne> purpleidea>  you mean its supposed to be the best right :P watch the language please
[03:15] <nickrud> purpleidea, ?
[03:15] <mustard5> ya, what do you mean 'doesnt work?  what error did you see?
[03:16] <purpleidea> idleone: yes. sorry.
[03:16] <nocti> how can i update/install packages on a box with no internet connection? thanks
[03:16] <te_iubesc> 10x you all is working :) i erased the games:)
[03:16] <mustard5> ya, 'doesn't work' tells me nothing...the error message is what I need :)
[03:16] <purpleidea> nickrud: trying to convert flac to mp3 having issues :(
[03:16] <Samineru> is there a way to resize a window from the comandline? cause my firefox window is now taller than my monitor
[03:16] <nickrud> nocti, if you have access to an ubuntu or debian box, apt-zip is your savior
[03:16] <ya> hold on wrong screen,sorry
[03:16] <nickrud> purpleidea, ah, truly something to curse about
[03:17] <IdleOne> Samineru> hold alt and left click to move your screen down
[03:17] <ya> it said nothing
[03:17] <nocti> nickrud: just a win32 box with internet connection. how do i do it? thanks
[03:17] <Samineru> also is there a way to make my monitor turn itself io degrees? so instead of 1280x800 I would have a 800x1280 screen?
[03:17] <mustard5> ya, so what did you type in?
[03:17] <CppIsOnLinux> where are mouse properties to be configured in ubuntu?
[03:17] <opter> ANyone got an idea why there is not sound with tvtime?
[03:18] <IdleOne> CppIsOnLinux>  System > Administration > Mouse I think
[03:18] <purpleidea> nickrud: any ideas? mind trying out sudo apt-get install soundconverter and seeing if the buttons actually work?
[03:18] <Samineru> idleone, the bottom of the window goes of the screen so I need to access the bottom corners to shrink it
[03:18] <NeverDream> CppIsOnLinux, /etx/x11/xorg.conf
[03:18] <nickrud> nocti, I've never done it that way, but I've been told that apt-get --print-uris install <package> gets something usable (you gotta build from that)
[03:18] <Samineru> wait
[03:18] <mustard5> opter, unmute 'line in'?
[03:18] <NeverDream> errr
[03:18] <ya> i just useed the file command and it told me nothing, no error shoewed up
[03:18] <Samineru> nevermind idleone thanks
[03:18] <GTroy> anyone feel like helping me to get gtkpod to work?
[03:18] <NeverDream> CppIsOnLinux, /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[03:18] <IdleOne> Samineru>  :)
[03:18] <nickrud> purpleidea, I have cursed that seriously, to the point that I don't care anymore
[03:18] <opter> yes
[03:18] <GTroy> I'd really appreciate it
[03:18] <mustard5> ya, I don't know what the problem is
[03:18] <nocti> nickrud: can't i just download .deb packages and install it on the ubuntu box?
[03:18] <ya> ok

[03:20] <bacon_> Does someone know how to make a pretty link to another bug in a launchpad comment? there's now "preview"
[03:21] <mustard5> bacon_, it doesnt process URL's automatically?
[03:22] <mustard5> bacon_, or the URL is huge ?
[03:23] <bacon_> no, it's just that i see people posting "bug #n" and it's a nice link, should i just put std html?
[03:23] <CppIsOnLinux> anywhere know where i can turn tapping off for a touchpad in linux?
[03:23] <mustard5> bacon_, I don't know actually :)
[03:23] <dli__> for dialup with wvdial, how do I know my IP?
[03:23] <LogicalDash> Now I'm trying to change the group of the FAT16 partition. It's not letting me.
[03:23] <IdleOne> dli__> <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:23] <mikebot> how can i make my mouse scroll work in zsnes?
[03:23] <nickrud> IdleOne, swimming is fine, direction is everything
[03:23] <pvd2006> polpak, that command didnt work, it still says there are too many arguments
[03:24] <pvd2006> in otherwords to many files to list
[03:24] <dli__> IdleOne, no, I'm not asking the IP, I'm asking for a local way :(
[03:24] <pvd2006> to delete at once
[03:24] <IdleOne> nickrud>  when you dont know which way to go follow the bubbles they always go up :P
[03:24] <dli__> IdleOne, but thanks :)
[03:24] <pvd2006> is there anyway to force it
[03:24] <mustard5> pvd2006, what if you delete a subset of them first using some other wildcard argument?
[03:24] <CppIsOnLinux> i have the windows drivers for the touchpad... but i accessed the turning off the tapping function is accessed through the windows mouse configuration
[03:24] <nickrud> IdleOne, you've never truly been 'out there' then :)
[03:24] <pvd2006> mustard5, it says I dont have access to them even u nder orot
[03:24] <pvd2006> under roto
[03:24] <pvd2006> root
[03:25] <pvd2006> i tried to chmod them, but then
[03:25] <mustard5> pvd2006, that's pretty wierd :)
[03:25] <IdleOne> nickrud>  Im not sure I know what that means but Ive been places I care not remember
[03:25] <pvd2006> too many arguments for chmod:-\
[03:25] <fabs> Hello everyone
[03:25] <pvd2006> so I guess I have to
[03:25] <pvd2006> chmod a subet
[03:26] <pvd2006> subset
[03:26] <pvd2006> then
[03:26] <pvd2006> rm a subet
[03:26] <ds[de] > pvd2006: well, you're probably better off learning how to write a quick shell script than to delete these files manually :)
[03:26] <nickrud> IdleOne, I'm not sure I knew what I meant, but I feel you :)
[03:26] <mustard5> pvd2006, you on gnome?
[03:26] <IdleOne> hahah :)
[03:26] <fabs> Guys I need some quick help, why when I try to do apt-get install chmlib, it tells me file not found?
[03:26] <pvd2006> mustard5. yes
[03:26] <Swedish_Chef> argh, how to get rid of the restart required notification thing without restarting?
[03:26] <baconbacon> did you sudo apt-get update
[03:26] <mustard5> pvd2006, have you tried gksudo nautilus to get root access from nautilus window?
[03:27] <mustard5> pvd2006, you could try deleting some manually :)
[03:27] <baconbacon> fabs did you sudo apt-get update
