[00:00] <lobonegro_rlopez> hello
[00:00] <Penta> what is abiword?
[00:00] <erUSUL> Morgansl1: you either enclose the folder name in "" or you scape the space with \ like this cp -r folder\ with\ spaces
[00:00] <Infl1kted> Hello!
[00:00] <qe2eqe> StaRetji, really not my forte, but the CLI method is sometimes ubuntu unfriendly.  Check that box for your own good.,
[00:01] <sebsebseb> !info abiword
[00:01] <lobonegro_rlopez> I was wondering how one could make a screensaver for Ubuntu/Gnome? I have a friend who is an artist who has screensavers of his work made for windows and mac.
[00:01] <Penta> I ask for irc server GnuWorld
[00:01] <sebsebseb> Penta: see above
[00:01] <Penta> not for visual Gnu
[00:01] <hey`> nothing fccf, there ain't no good backups from what I see.
[00:01] <Morgansl1> erUSUL: it worked Thanks for all the help
[00:01] <Infl1kted> I have a problem trying to reproduce music in Exaile :S
[00:01] <erUSUL> Morgansl1: no problem
[00:01] <sebsebseb> Penta: oh I guess I read wrong then
[00:02] <hey`> I'll will struggle with the nvidia-settings window.
[00:02] <hey`> for now
[00:02] <Morgansl1> erUSUL: :D
[00:02] <IndyGunFreak> hey`: do you have the restricted driver enabled for your Nvidia device?
[00:02] <sebsebseb> !ot |  Penta
[00:02] <qe2eqe> Infl1kted, make sure your output is set correctly (pulseaudio, oss, alsa, etc.)
[00:02] <hey`> indygunfreak I've just installed the one envyng gave me.
[00:02] <Infl1kted> Yep.
[00:02] <Infl1kted> I use oss
[00:02] <IndyGunFreak> hey`: sigh... why int he world would you use that train wreck?
[00:02] <Infl1kted> The weird is that I can listen music (or video) using totem
[00:02] <erUSUL> Infl1kted: why ? oss is deprecated and not functional most of the time
[00:03] <qe2eqe> IndyGunFreak, /me defends envy-ng
[00:03] <erUSUL> Infl1kted: you should use Pulseaudio or alsa
[00:03] <hey`> mmh
[00:03] <qe2eqe> Infl1kted, ^^^ what he said.
[00:03] <IndyGunFreak> !envy > hey`
[00:04] <IndyGunFreak> no telling what went wrong
[00:04] <Infl1kted> If I try to use Alsa, I get an error.

[00:05] <sebsebseb> !ot |  Penta
[00:06] <Lappy> How do I un-mount a internal hard drive than re-mount it? I mounted it to /media and not /fstab, how do I go about doing so?
[00:06] <Penta> I have asked if it posible to install gnuworld on ubuntu 9.04 without any problems.Pecouse there is always some problem during instalation of postgresql..
[00:06] <Infl1kted> And If I use pulseaudio, the sound goes through the internal sound card.
[00:06] <Infl1kted> Not through the USB one :S
[00:06] <evident> BioVorE, how do I find out which device it is?
[00:06] <sebsebseb> !info gnuworld
[00:06] <Penta> haha
[00:06] <Penta> lol
[00:06] <Penta> GnuWorld is not a package
[00:07] <sebsebseb> Penta: I didn't think  it would be in the repo whatever your on about, but anyway
[00:07] <Penta> gnuworld contains boost lib,postgresql and cvs gnu files
[00:07] <sebsebseb> Penta: You can compile stuff
[00:07] <robuntu> what site do we use to link blocks of text?
[00:07] <erUSUL> !paste
[00:07] <sebsebseb> !info postgressql
[00:08] <Penta> with 1 s
[00:08] <Penta> postgresql
[00:08] <Beardbar> ok im dumb, i thought there was a libXSLT package in the repository for ubuntu server?
[00:08] <StaRetji> qe2eqe: I have cleared my xorg conf stating it's only intel driver nothing else and still the same error http://paste.ubuntu.com/287393/
[00:08] <bin1010> howdy all...how do I setup multiple ssh tunnels, do I have to have separate terminals for each one?  I want these running all the time...  Thxs.

[00:08] <sebsebseb> Penta: you can search the repo for things your self
[00:08] <Lint_> how can I change my locale without installing all translation stuff?
[00:08] <Penta> !info postgresql
[00:08] <Penta> there is
[00:08] <westsyde> Hi all, I am wondering if anyone here knows of some good software or DEB package for merging changes that have taken place in a development environment and the production site, so that if minor and or major changes are made to the test site, while data only in general is entered into the production site, that the two seamlessly become one without loosing anything.
[00:08] <Penta> :D
[00:09] <sebsebseb> Penta: and   probably sort out depdances and stuff, and I already know postgressql  was probably in the repo, I just wanted to show you
[00:09] <Penta> yep that is that
[00:09] <evident> can anybody tell me which of the devices in my /dev/ folder is my SD Card? How do I find out?
[00:09] <Rezagrats> What's mk called ? (the package)
[00:09] <dandaman> who remember me?
[00:09] <sebsebseb> dandaman: your name that's it
[00:10] <dandaman> well i fixed the mbr windows 7 problem
[00:10] <dandaman> now i move onto getting ubuntu to load
[00:10] <Infl1kted> Is there a way to invoke some sort of pulseaudio config GUI?
[00:10] <sebsebseb> dandaman: How did you do that?
[00:10] <dandaman> sebsebseb: bootsect.exe
[00:11] <erUSUL> Infl1kted: there are various pavucontroll paman pavumeter etc
[00:11] <StaRetji> Bump: I have cleared my xorg conf stating it's only intel driver nothing else and still the same error http://paste.ubuntu.com/287393/
[00:11] <sebsebseb> dandaman: in reply  to  your pm,  no I don't need help fixing grub error 21, but others might now, but also in the future
[00:11] <qe2eqe> StaRetji, have you used the 'hardware drivers' menu thing yet?
[00:12] <StaRetji> nope, I don't have gnome mate :(
[00:12] <qe2eqe> StaRetji, 'jockey-gtk'
[00:12] <erUSUL> Infl1kted: the best is padevchooser. it makes an applet from where you can lounch the other gui tools
[00:12] <benjoldersma> is there a way to create an installer of unbuntu that will install a custom list of packages afterwards (and be unattended)?
[00:12] <erUSUL> Infl1kted: in the notification area
[00:12] <smokie> hey guys, is there a way to remote to my ubuntu 9.04 or do i have to install realvnc server?

[00:16] <smokie> qe2eqe, is there a good vnc server for ubuntu?
[00:16] <smokie> ok
[00:16] <robuntu> what site do we use to link blocks of text?

[00:16] <iceroot> robuntu: you mean post large text?
[00:16] <g_> pastebin?
[00:17] <iceroot> !paste | robuntu
[00:17] <xmas> can someone help me connect usb?
[00:17] <StaRetji> qe2eqe: jockey-kde or gtk would require to install gnome or kde, no disk space mate
[00:17] <iceroot> !ask | xmas
[00:17] <erUSUL> xmas: just plugging the disk should "just work (tm)"
[00:17] <robuntu> pastebin Thanks
[00:17] <StaRetji> anyway, thx for tips
[00:17] <xmas> erUSUL, it didn't
[00:17] <qe2eqe> StaRetji, one more
[00:17] <StaRetji> I'm all ears
[00:17] <Infl1kted> xmas, Did you mount it?
[00:18] <HowardTheDuck> hey.  got a question.  if 9.10 is coming out in a matter of days, why am i still having to update 9.04 on a daily basis
[00:18] <xmas> infl1kted, how do i mount it?
[00:18] <qe2eqe> StaRetji, find your module.blacklist, add i915, that might help - -  its not elegant.
[00:18] <qe2eqe> StaRetji, I have to go myself, later
[00:18] <StaRetji> good idea, let me try it
[00:18] <Infl1kted> Go to menu "places"
[00:18] <StaRetji> thx, bie
[00:18] <qe2eqe> StaRetji, post a qe2eqe, it [didn't] work
[00:18] <Infl1kted> And check in there if there's a new item.

[00:19] <Infl1kted> Like disk 4.1 GB
[00:19] <Infl1kted> Or something like it.
[00:19] <VCoolio> g_: charmap is a font viewer
[00:19] <sebsebseb> IndyGunFreak: I was a little slow there, I was going to do that
[00:19] <xmas> infl1kted, it's in the places menu but, that's probably because it was there before... when I click on it there, nothing happens
[00:19] <Beta-guy> thank you
[00:19] <IndyGunFreak> sebsebseb: gotta be fast when i'm around.. 65wpm.. :)
[00:19] <sebsebseb> IndyGunFreak: I also touch type :)
[00:20] <Infl1kted> No windows popping up?
[00:20] <xmas> nothing
[00:20] <Infl1kted> Ok.
[00:20] <sebsebseb> IndyGunFreak: ended up taking my  hands off my keyboard then though,  anyway  this just turned into a bit of a silly offtopic :D
[00:20] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[00:20] <Infl1kted> Try opening a personal folder
[00:21] <Infl1kted> And check in the left for the device list.
[00:21] <xmas> you mean, like "computer"?
[00:21] <Infl1kted> Yes, that.
[00:21] <xmas> it shows up in there, the icon but, same... no reaction
[00:21] <Infl1kted> No up arrow at the right of the item?
[00:21] <mgv1> i must find the way to get spell check to work in english - ive already removed the hebrew one for it to work
[00:21] <xmas> no
[00:22] <Infl1kted> Ok, right click on it >> Mount
[00:22] <xmas> properties say unkown...
[00:22] <jove> does anyone know how to extract the file with "toast" extension ? for example :  appl-installer.toast ?
[00:22] <xmas> mounting isn't doing anything either..
[00:22] <g_> damnit! this is so frustrating! how do i preview fonts?
[00:23] <Infl1kted> Can you copy the contents of the file: /etc/fstab ?
[00:23] <Infl1kted> And paste in a pastebin?
[00:23] <sebsebseb> Infl1kted: yes
[00:23] <xmas> ok
[00:23] <xmas> !pastebin
[00:24] <Infl1kted> What's up sebsebseb?
[00:24] <sebsebseb> Infl1kted: nm
[00:25] <jove> how to convert "toast" file to an executable file ?
[00:25] <Infl1kted> jove, as in roxio toast?
[00:26] <shane2peru> what would be considered an open source streaming video format?
[00:26] <xmas> infl1kted: http://paste.ubuntu.com/287407/
[00:26] <O__o> French toast?
[00:26] <shane2peru> And would Window$ people be able to play it?
[00:26] <jove> inflited: it's music maker installer, it's similar to Roxio
[00:27] <Infl1kted> shane2peru, un formato de reproducción abierto.
[00:27] <sebsebseb> shane2peru: OGG Vorbis in browsers that support  the <video> tag and that format such as Firefox 3.5
[00:27] <Infl1kted> Y si, los usuarios de Güindows tendrían que poder reproducirlos.
[00:27] <sebsebseb> !es | Infl1kted

[00:27] <Infl1kted> OK, jove.
[00:28] <Infl1kted> With one time was enough -.-
[00:28] <shane2peru> sebsebseb: do you know if windows boxes can play that?
[00:28] <Infl1kted> Did you try to burn the image?
[00:28] <shane2peru> Infl1kted: ahh, ya veo, estás jugando. :)
[00:28] <sebsebseb> shane2peru: If they have Firefox 3.5 installed yes, becasue it has in built support :)

[00:29] <shane2peru> sebsebseb: how about IE?
[00:29] <sebsebseb> shane2peru: sadly not
[00:30] <sebsebseb> shane2peru: Microsoft like propritary stuff
[00:30] <shane2peru> sebsebseb: hmm, too bad for them. :)
[00:30] <Beardbar> whats the zlib module called for the package manager, for some reason I cannot find it when searching for zlib
[00:30] <shane2peru> sebsebseb: that is the dilema, I want maximum viewability.
[00:30] <Infl1kted> xmas, is that what you get with the HD plugged?
[00:30] <xmas> yes
[00:31] <Infl1kted> Does it come with a activity led-light?
[00:31] <Infl1kted> an activity*
[00:31] <shane2peru> sebsebseb: producing in open source cuts out windows, which also unfortuenatley has the largest market share
[00:31] <xmas> no but, it's on and running
[00:31] <sebsebseb> shane2peru: that's not true it depends
[00:31] <Infl1kted> Try to unplug and plug it again.
[00:31] <sebsebseb> shane2peru: remember FIrefox 3.5 runs on Windows as well
[00:32] <xmas> wow, actually it does have a light and it's on. I tried that a few times too.
[00:32] <xmas> (I keep it behind the pc so never really see it)
[00:32] <sebsebseb> shane2peru: plus there are programs on Windows that play OGG/Vorbis  and ones that do FLAC for music also open format
[00:32] <Infl1kted> It's on at all times, or it's blinking from time to time?
[00:32] <xmas> it's on steady right now. i'll try to unplug, turn it off again, etc
[00:33] <Infl1kted> OK, try that
[00:33] <Infl1kted> Which brand is the HD, btw?
[00:33] <xmas> IO-Data
[00:33] <xmas> And when it's unplugged, the icon in the paces menu disapears
[00:34] <Infl1kted> Yeah, that's normal.
[00:34] <xmas> and it's back now, steady light and it's on the menu
[00:34] <Infl1kted> HDC or HDL series?
[00:35] <xmas> hmm.. i'm not sure how to check
[00:35] <kisuke> what is the difference between the standerd disk and the alternet install disk
[00:35] <Infl1kted> Never mind.
[00:35] <xmas> HDCS
[00:35] <rein_> hai
[00:35] <Infl1kted> Well, according to IO's site, Linux is not supported.
[00:36] <xmas> it was working fine before
[00:36] <Infl1kted> But it should work anyways.
[00:36] <Infl1kted> ANd what happened?
[00:36] <xmas> like, something changed because the gui did not start either
[00:36] <xmas> when i restarted, the gui was gone and the usb hd was not working
[00:36] <blingo> Hello guys, slow download on synaptic, any advices? I think I've removed ipV6 ...
[00:37] <xmas> i did something that was supposed to just remove the gui for the login but, i guess it did more than that
[00:37] <Infl1kted> Ok, does the HD comes with two USB ports, right?
[00:37] <xmas> no
[00:37] <xmas> but i can try another on the pc
[00:37] <Infl1kted> Try that too.
[00:38] <hlambeth> anyone else have a problem with ubuntu 9.04 and coolbits not working at all?
[00:38] <xmas> nothing, same problem as before
[00:39] <Guest69967> hey, i have a broadcom airforce one wireless card in my laptop and it is not showing up in proprietary hardware i could be using
[00:39] <Infl1kted> Same problem with another disk?

[00:39] <xmas> infl1kted, i mean i tried the same hd on another usb port on the computer

[00:41] <fearful> Does anyone know how I can reset my shortcuts, I cleaned installed Jaunty but had a different config in a seperate home I'm just mounting, so I'm guessing something messed up there.
[00:42] <xmas> Infl1kted, I got it!

[00:43] <Infl1kted> Good!

[00:53] <flyman> service xfs restart will only restart the X font server
[00:54] <hlambeth> is there a program like gpuz for ubuntu?
[00:54] <lemon_lime123> can i get some help with my installation?
[00:54] <flyman> lemon_lime123: type what your issue is and someone will help.
[00:55] <benhaminjr> alright i'll rephrase my question. I see that there is a guide for installing Ubuntu FROM a usb flash drive. Would an external HDD work in the same way?
[00:55] <lemon_lime123> when i try to login, the comp freezes
[00:55] <PovAddict> I have Ubuntu Hardy... is there any easy way to upgrade to Flash 10?
[00:55] <flyman> benhaminjr: you want to use the external as a flash drive?
[00:56] <PovAddict> or better: does Gnash support Flash10 features yet?
[00:56] <amerinese> what is the equivalent of man 2 chdir on ubuntu?  i believe that is bsd?
[00:56] <amerinese> what does the 2 stand for?
[00:56] <te> nocleader: find anything? :)
[00:56] <PovAddict> it's the section name
[00:56] <PovAddict> er
[00:56] <PovAddict> number
[00:56] <PovAddict> :P
[00:57] <FloodBot1> PovAddict: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:57] <PovAddict> amerinese: and it works in Ubuntu
[00:57] <PovAddict> FloodBot1: stfu
[00:57] <benhaminjr> flyman: i'm looking to just simply install Ubuntu. I have a source ISO but i'm out of blank disks. funning the install files from the usb hdd would be easiest method i believe, if possible
[00:57] <PovAddict> amerinese: you need to install the manpages-dev package first
[00:57] <amerinese> PovAddict: oh ok, no wonder
[00:57] <amerinese> PovAddict: thanks
[00:58] <benhaminjr> funning = running* oops
[00:58] <nocleader> te: pastebin.org/37773
[00:58] <flyman> benhaminjr: ok. In that case you would need to make sure the iso has a way of booting. for example, extract the usb flash iso and extract to the usb hd. Then in bios force the external drive as the first drive to load.
[00:58] <nocleader> te: sorry so slow ... I had to re-remember
[00:59] <te> nocleader: no worries
[00:59] <te> nocleader: im doing that same thing but it doesnt seem to work
[00:59] <benhaminjr> flyman: thanks, i wasn't sure if it would be that easy. i figured i'd ask before i gave it a shot. I have to unpack the external from my storage locker
[00:59] <te> :\
[00:59] <lemon_lime123> install 9.04 is fine but  it freezes at login
[01:00] <nocleader> te: no request to put in your password?
[01:00] <te> nocleader: i put in my password, it works
[01:00] <PovAddict> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FlashPlayer9 redirects to MultimediaApplications
[01:00] <te> nocleader: i get the banner and everything
[01:00] <te> nocleader: but i cannot go to internal websites
[01:00] <PovAddict> which has a useless three-line explanation
[01:00] <te> everything hangs
[01:00] <nocleader> te: OK so you're good now?
[01:00] <toby__> ?
[01:00] <od3n> so what is restarting the x server do?
[01:01] <te> nocleader: no, im able to connect, but i cant use internal websites on the VPN
[01:01] <Infl1kted> there isn't a channel for pulseaudio, right?
[01:01] <od3n> is it like rebooting in windows
[01:01] <Infl1kted> I'm still having problems with it >_>
[01:01] <PovAddict> od3n: er not sure how to explain
[01:01] <PovAddict> od3n: it restarts all of the graphical stuff, I guess
[01:01] <nocleader> te: that sounds like setup of vpn --- example- I can't access internet when I vpn
[01:02] <nocleader> te: becuase my shop does not do split-tunneling
[01:02] <od3n> so if I have updates downloading I should wait till after that
[01:02] <lemon_lime123> sometimes, other times the cursur freezes while the thing is spinnning
[01:02] <te> this used to work :\
[01:02] <alod> All I want is 1600x1200 @ 65Hz on the live CD... http://pastebin.com/m6215dd58
[01:02] <PovAddict> od3n: depends what you're using to download them
[01:02] <te> nocleader: when i use the windows client i can use both the regular net and the vpn network
[01:02] <te> nocleader: im trying to make my wireless use the VPN exclusively
[01:02] <od3n> update manager
[01:02] <_dan> so i got through the whole live cd installer
[01:02] <te> does that make sense?
[01:02] <_dan> and then it decided to tell me it can't install grub
[01:02] <_dan> at 94% complete
[01:02] <_dan> how 2 fix??
[01:03] <_Techie_> am i able to connect to a WPA secured wireless network using the network manager?
[01:03] <_dan> i cant even use the new partitions in grub cmd line :s
[01:04] <Infl1kted> <.<
[01:04] <Infl1kted> >.>
[01:04] <_dan> keep getting stuff like
[01:04] <nocleader> te:  Hmm.. well, when I get on I have a 10.x.x.x address and I can't ping the pc next to me.
[01:04] <_dan> grub> root (hd0,2)

[01:04] <nocleader> te:  best of luck .. I don't think I can be of help .. cheers
[01:05] <sebsebseb> dandaman: yeah
[01:05] <te> nocleader: htanks anyway
[01:05] <te> :)
[01:05] <nocleader> ;0
[01:05] <dandaman> so do you have any idea how to get around this grub problem?
[01:05] <dandaman> should i just try reinstalling
[01:05] <dandaman> even though i already have reinstalled before
[01:05] <_dan> maybe grub just sux
[01:06] <sebsebseb> _dan: heh
[01:06] <PovAddict> did it offer to install grub2?
[01:06] <dandaman> _dan: im starting to think that
[01:06] <sebsebseb> _dan: well yeah Grub is great when it works, but then when it messes up on people it's a pain
[01:06] <dandaman> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-235453.html
[01:06] <pilibeen> does anybody know what the program(s) is called which gives you weather/filesystem/other stats on your desktop...kind of a real-time text display for the desktop?
[01:06] <dandaman> im having this guy's problem
[01:06] <PovAddict> is lilo an option nowadays?
[01:06] <PovAddict> pilibeen: depends on what desktop environment you use
[01:06] <pilibeen> PovAddict, gnome
[01:06] <PovAddict> then I dunno :)
[01:07] <sebsebseb> dandaman: I don't know Grub that well
[01:07] <_dan> maybe i dont need grub in mbr?
[01:08] <_dan> can i use windoze bootloader instead
[01:08] <sebsebseb> _dan: you could use lilo instead, but hardly anyone uses that with Ubuntu
[01:08] <sebsebseb> _dan: I think the Windows boot loader can be edited to boot Ubuntu
[01:08] <PovAddict> I don't think you can use windoze bootloader to start Linux
[01:08] <sebsebseb> I guess really it's better to have Grub though, so you get the kernels listed, and recovery mode
[01:08] <_dan> is there anything the livecd installer installs after doing grub?
[01:08] <PovAddict> oh, well... I think you can make windoze bootloader start grub :)
[01:08] <agliodbs> gods
[01:08] <PovAddict> a grub *not* in the mbr
[01:08] <agliodbs> just looked at the bug list for ebox
[01:09] <sebsebseb> PovAddict: I  am pretty sure that it can be edited to boot up Linux
[01:09] <agliodbs> why is this considered stable software for Ubutu?
[01:09] <neoTheCat> sorry if this has been asked a million times, but i have not found an answer.  is there a gnome 2.28 repository for 9.04?
[01:10] <te> nocleader: it works!
[01:10] <sebsebseb> neoTheCat: maybe a ppa
[01:10] <te> nocleader: I was using an authmode and I didn't need one
[01:10] <FlyByRaci> anyone know the best way to find out what hardware i have inubuntu
[01:10] <PovAddict> ppas are awesome
[01:10] <nocleader> te: good for you!!
[01:10] <te> nocleader: that's confusing because the default.conf includes an IKE authmode line
[01:10] <te> :\
[01:10] <te> anyways, thanks
[01:10] <sebsebseb> PovAddict: depends, plus things can go wrong with them
[01:11] <PovAddict> how do I install Flash 10?

[01:18] <PovAddict> jrib: it's still loading flash9
[01:19] <jrib> PovAddict: restart firefox
[01:19] <PovAddict> I did

[01:19] <PovAddict> I'm in amd64, and the .so is 32-bit
[01:19] <PovAddict> indeed, that's *why* I'm not just using adobe's .deb
[01:19] <jrib> PovAddict: you need to get the amd64 version of flash
[01:20] <neoTheCat> i mean i do not mind installing some sort of a backend server
[01:20] <PovAddict> can't I use the nspluginwrapper like I'm doing for Flash9?
[01:20] <_dan> alright well
[01:20] <jrib> PovAddict: you can, but 1) it's more work 2) does not work as well imo
[01:20] <_dan> im just going to run the installer again
[01:20] <_dan> and hope for the best
[01:20] <PovAddict> well how "stable" is the 64-bit Flash?

[01:25] <Evelina> I have problem getting Universal FeedParser to work using a python script from Terminal.
[01:26] <ricardoromao> hello, anyone knows how to permit desktop users to halt the computer without password on 9.10 ?
[01:26] <jrib> ricardoromao: #ubuntu+1 for help with karmic
[01:26] <ricardoromao> jrib, tks
[01:26] <Evelina> I have a line saying: #!/usr/bin/python and then import feedparser on it's own line. Then I have a couple of commands that will work using python prompt in Terminal. Why isnät it working in my python script?
[01:26] <Evelina> *isn't
[01:26] <jrib> PovAddict: purge the other one, restart firefox
[01:27] <PovAddict> adobe's docs suck
[01:27] <PovAddict> they tell me that after downloading the .tar.gz I should run ./flash-installer
[01:27] <PovAddict> there's only a .so in the .tar.gz (even in the 32-bit from the main download page)
[01:28] <dandaman> kill me
[01:28]  * PovAddict kills dandaman
[01:28] <Evelina> Why isn't my python commands working using a .py script when they work in Terminal after running the commands from python >>> prompt?
[01:28] <jrib> dandaman: do you have an ubuntu-related support question?
[01:28] <dandaman> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-235453.html
[01:28] <jrib> Evelina: -ETOOVAGUE
[01:28] <dandaman> im having the same problem as that guy
[01:28] <Evelina> jrib: What?
[01:28] <dandaman> i have 2 hdd's, one with windows 7, one with ubuntu
[01:28] <jrib> Evelina: your question is too vague
[01:29] <Evelina> Ok
[01:29]  * Etu want's ntfs-3g AR packages in the ubuntu mirrors... Every time I booting up a CD I have to compile it from source....
[01:29] <dandaman> when i  choose to boot the ubuntu hdd it writes grub and doesnt do anything
[01:29] <mgmuscari> is there a way to change where icons on the desktop are placed by default?
[01:29] <westsyde> Does anyone know if Ubuntu has a mySQL database sync package to manage database merging ??
[01:29] <mgmuscari> for example automounted media pops up in the upper left corner... can i move it?
[01:29] <PovAddict> jrib: holy crap it worked
[01:30] <PovAddict> now that I purged flashplugin-nonfree, other users on my machine will have no Flash; can I install the new .so system-wide?
[01:30] <jrib> PovAddict: yeah, but I don't remember where exactly...
[01:30] <Etu> And I want a new version of fsarchiver too...
[01:30] <sintral> PovAddict /usr/bin/mozilla-firefox
[01:30] <jrib> sintral: isn't it in /usr/share/ somewhere?
[01:31] <fwaokda> how can i disable word wrap in terminal?
[01:31] <PovAddict> /usr/share has arch-indep files...
[01:31] <sintral> could be, trying to go from memory
[01:31] <Evelina> Well, There is a python software called Universal FeedParser. When I type python and press Enter in Terminal I got the python prompt and then I am allowed to run several python commands as I should. The problem is that when I create (and chmod) a file named feedparser.py and use #!/usr/bin/python and import feedparser, then the commands won't work in my script file.
[01:31] <jrib> PovAddict: easy way: reinstall the other flash and see where it went
[01:31] <sintral> Pov you on x64?
[01:31] <PovAddict> and /usr is supposed to be for apt to manage; isn't there a place to put it in /usr/local?
[01:31] <PovAddict> sintral: yes
[01:31] <kerin> My 9.04 install appears to be missing the Fuse module, despite having fuse-utils installed.  Please advise.

[01:32] <jrib> dandaman: no
[01:32] <JoeSomebody> hi, noob again, in 9.04 can i move the top right thing with my name and a power icon? i would rather it not be above the X for closing windows
[01:32] <blingo> O.K, It's o.k now disabled window scaling.
[01:32] <sintral> dandaman, are you using software raid?
[01:32] <dandaman> no
[01:32] <Evelina> The commands won't work in my python file as they do running them from python prompt. I have #!usr/bin/python and import feedparser at the beginning of my feedparser.py file, but the commands later in my file won't work as they do runnning them from python prompt. Why?
[01:32] <jrib> JoeSomebody: middle click drag
[01:32] <blingo> bye all

[01:34] <Evelina> jrib: ok
[01:34] <jrib> PovAddict: if you want to do it the nice way, install the .so somewhere (/opt or /usr/local/ or whatever you wish) and use the alternatives system to add an alternative for flash (I forget the exact name, but there shouldn't be too many that say "flash")
[01:34] <Evelina> jrib: It says this: #!/usr/bin/python
[01:34] <sintral> alod: did you run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg?
[01:34] <jrib> Evelina: so you made a typo in your question?
[01:35] <dandaman> /quit life
[01:35] <Evelina> jrib: Yeah, I did.
[01:35] <Evelina> sorry, but I still got the problem.

[01:37] <jrib> Evelina: what do you expect to happen?
[01:37] <Evelina> jrib: Using in Terminal 1. python 2. import feedparser 3. d = feedparser.parser('url to rss') 4. d.entries[3].link
[01:38] <Evelina> jrib: I'm supposed to get the third link from feed.
[01:38] <alod> sintral just did, don't see what its doing other then backing up the current xorg.conf
[01:38] <jrib> Evelina: mapbe you want to insert a "print " at the beggining of the final line?
[01:38] <Evelina> jrib: Using Terminal will give the third link as output in Terminal, but not using the script.
[01:38] <Evelina> jrib: I don't know, I'm not used to python scripts.
[01:39] <jrib> Evelina: yes, you want to do that...
[01:39] <sintral> alod: should get a blue screen that lets you reconfigure
[01:40] <sintral> fearful: is it safe to assume you have the same UID for the new user?
[01:40] <Evelina> jrib: I got this error in Terminal trying to run the script: http://paste.ubuntu.com/287445/

[01:45] <dirka> hi there
[01:45] <centrinia> Is it just me or does the latest beta of karmic koala have gnome list every file as text/plain?
[01:45] <jerknextdoor> dandaman: what exactly are you trying to do?
[01:45] <Evelina> Maybe something is wrong calling the import feedparser or something.
[01:45] <jrib> centrinia: #ubuntu+1
[01:45] <centrinia> Okay.
[01:46] <dandaman> jerknextdoor: i have ubuntu installed on another hdd, windows 7 is on another
[01:46] <jrib> Evelina: what did you name your file?
[01:46] <dandaman> jerknextdoor: when i load up the ubuntu hdd it prints out grub and just sits there
[01:46] <Evelina> jrib: I called the script using ./scriptname.py in Terminal and I wrote print 'Hello' as the only line after the shebang.
[01:46] <dandaman> doesnt load up anything
[01:46] <jrib> Evelina: what's the actual scriptname?
[01:46] <jrib> Evelina: with your feedparser example
[01:46] <Evelina> jrib: My script's name is feedparser.py
[01:47] <jrib> Evelina: change it.  Python is importing that file instead of the feedparser module
[01:47] <Evelina> jrib: Oh, I'll try that.
[01:47] <ynk> hey guys. how's it going? i just finally figured out how to install my silly ati graphics card driver (woot!). now i'm trying to install compiz fusion... and there is no "compizconfig-settings-manager" in synaptic... what do i do?
[01:47] <dirka> does jaunty have any ati driver issues.  going to be building a htpc and heard that nvidia cards have much better support
[01:47] <jerknextdoor> dandaman: i just saw you said it's dapper so i'm not gonna be much help.
[01:48] <dandaman> i dont even know what it is jerknextdoor
[01:48] <lostson> dirka: i would go with nvidia it will work out better
[01:48] <dandaman> im just copying what the person wrote in their post
[01:48] <dandaman> jerknextdoor: i am completely clueless and have no idea how to fix this
[01:48] <jerknextdoor> dandaman: then why not just reinstall the whole ubuntu system if you dont know what it is.
[01:48] <Evelina> jrib: I got the same error.
[01:48] <dandaman> jerknextdoor: if you have any advice i would really appreciate it
[01:48] <dandaman> jerknextdoor: i have done that
[01:48] <jrib> Evelina: then you still have some feeparser.py file.
[01:48] <dandaman> i get the same problem
[01:48] <jrib> Evelina: then you still have some feedparser.py file.
[01:49] <Evelina> jrib: Maybe I can't just call feedparser using import feedparser?
[01:49] <jrib> Evelina: of course you can... how else would you?
[01:49] <Evelina> jrib: I removed the feedparser.py file.
[01:49] <dirka> well that sucks.  I just upgraded my pc from a 4670 to a 4870, was hoping to use the existing card to save a bit of cash
[01:49] <jrib> Evelina: then it's impossible that your error is the same.
[01:49] <jerknextdoor> dandaman: well, what did you install when you did it?  dapper?  gutsy? intrepid?
[01:49] <Evelina> jrib: Well, I don't know, maybe I had to write som other path than just import feedparser
[01:49] <dandaman> jerknextdoor: jaunty i think
[01:49] <jrib> Evelina: can you paste the error?
[01:49] <dandaman> jerknextdoor: i just went on the ubuntu site, downloaded the iso
[01:50] <Evelina> jrib: yes, wait.
[01:50] <dandaman> and installed...
[01:50] <jerknextdoor> dandaman: how did you install it?
[01:50] <dandaman> i dont know jack squat(i really need to use profanity) about linux :(
[01:50] <dandaman> first time i installed from the CD
[01:50] <Evelina> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu.com/287450/
[01:50] <dandaman> then the second time i made a live sesion from the CD and installed from the live session
[01:50] <dandaman> same result both times
[01:51] <jrib> Evelina:  File "/home/evelina/scripts/feedparser.py   does that file not exist?
[01:51] <jrib> Evelina: are you sure you don't have a feedparser.py or feedparser.pyc there?
[01:51] <Evelina> I see now that the script still say something about the feedparser.py that I changed inteo Feed_Parser.py. That is strange.
[01:52] <ynk> oops, false alarm, ladies. i have found the darn "compizconfig-settings-manager" in synaptic.. thanks!
[01:52] <asonge_> i'm using compiz on karmic and flash won't receive click events
[01:52] <Evelina> jrib: Yeah, I have removed it from my home folde script catalog to Trash.
[01:52] <ynk> ouch.
[01:53] <ynk> which browser are you using, asonge_ ?
[01:53] <jerknextdoor> dandaman:  i'm not going to be much help. i'm not understanding the whole story.
[01:53] <jrib> Evelina: works now?
[01:53] <dandaman> jerknextdoor: do you mind if i PM you?
[01:53] <Evelina> jrib: No, that file isn't longer in my home folder script folder, maybe as a secure copy?
[01:53] <jerknextdoor> dandaman: go for it.
[01:53] <jrib> Evelina: I mentioned two files.  Neither of them exist?
[01:54] <jerknextdoor> i'm trying to transfer files between a windows mobile phone and 9.04.  i'm getting nowhere.  any advice?
[01:54] <Evelina> I only saw one file, what else file did you mention?
[01:54] <jrib> Evelina: are you sure you don't have a feedparser.py or feedparser.pyc there?
[01:54] <darkham> hi people, how can i list all the commands availaibles in the terminal
[01:54] <darkham> ?
[01:54] <n-iCe> help
[01:54] <n-iCe> won't show you *all* though
[01:55] <Evelina> jrib: I had the last one as a hidden file.
[01:55] <Evelina> jrib: I removed it, what was it, the compiled version?
[01:55] <jrib> Evelina: yeah, byte-compiled
[01:55] <erikk71> hi whats the correct clock format
[01:55] <Evelina> jrib: Ok, will try again now.
[01:55] <erikk71> it is showing up in miltary time
[01:55] <Evelina> jrib: Yeah, now it works!!!
[01:55] <asonge_> darkham: well, if you want to list every file that's executable in $PATH...there's that.
[01:55] <jrib> darkham: ls all the directories in your path I guess... or press TAB TAB.  why?
[01:56] <jrib> Evelina: cool.  You might want to try #python for python help
[01:56] <asonge_> darkham: there's thousands of commands by default, (a few are bash constructs)
[01:56] <Evelina> jrib: Thank you very much. I have learnt something new today. Writing elementary python scripts and about python byte-code files.
[01:56] <RaviResck> my computer restarted during the installation of packages and now my dpkg/apt-get is not running. I receive the message "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." And when i type dpkg --configure.... When i type this the problem it isnt solved.
[01:56] <n0ah> hey i just installed ubuntu and it's dead slow, i'm wondering if it's a graphic issue but just one line in irssi and i can see the screen redrawing itself for about 3 seconds
[01:57] <nomasteryoda> RaviResck, try sudo dpkg --configure -a
[01:57] <asonge_> RaviResck: sudo dpkg --configure -a ?
[01:57] <darkham> jrib, because i would know the command i've by default , when i try diffrent distros
[01:57] <erikk71> hello
[01:57] <Evelina> jrib: Yeah, I didn't know what my problem was so I asked here. I will try #python if I get into more specific python scriptin problems. Thanks for all help.
[01:57] <jrib> Evelina: no problem
[01:57] <erikk71> can someone tell what the correct format is
[01:58] <jrib> !cli > darkham
[01:58] <n0ah> anyone know why just one line in a terminal causes about a 3 second screen redraw
[01:58] <Whiper> hey can any body knows how to install patches on ubuntu
[01:58] <ulb> hi
[01:58] <ulb> nhi
[01:58] <darkham> ok
[01:58] <asonge_> Whiper: i'm pretty sure you'd need the source to apply patches
[01:58] <jrib> Whiper: what do you want to do exactly?

[01:59] <asonge_> Casper1: were you running it *as* root?
[01:59] <jrib> Casper1: linux is case-sensitive.  You probably meant to type: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:59] <nomasteryoda> RaviResck,  try running synaptic
[01:59] <Casper1> jrib: k ill try that
[02:00] <Whiper> i have a tar file need to install
[02:00] <asonge_> Casper1: on the cli, tab-completing names helps with getting the filenames right.
[02:00] <jrib> Whiper: why?  What are you installing?
[02:00] <jrib> !who | Whiper
[02:00] <erikk71> can some one help

[02:04] <blaylock> !test

[02:05] <asonge_> Casper1: ctrl+alt+f1 to bring up a tty
[02:05] <Casper1> jrib: im not making it up
[02:05] <jrib> Casper1: you're either making a typo or the file does not exist
[02:05] <yukongt> does anyone know why youtube wont play videos that are on a different website?
[02:05] <Whiper> asonge_: noo
[02:06] <jrib> Casper1: what does this return: ls -l /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:06] <nemesis1911> sup guys I need help with tvtime I get "ivtv: Invalid argument cannot open cature device /dev/video1" but when I check to see if it works by running this in terminal "mplayer -vo xv /dev/video1" the tuner works ... can anyone help
[02:06] <Whiper> asonge_: hey can we have a private chat'
[02:06] <Casper1> jrib: im not making it up, theres no typo, and how can xorg.conf not exist
[02:06] <asonge_> Whiper: once i find out why compiz is breaking flash, sure.
[02:07] <asonge_> (again: when compiz is on, flash doesn't receive any left mouse click events, i get hover and right click)
[02:07] <nemesis1911> can anyone help me with tvtime?

[02:07] <PovAddict> jrib: there is no flash alternative :/
[02:07] <jrib> PovAddict: hmm?
[02:08] <PCTeacher012> PovAddict: The closest thing to flash on linux is synfig studio
[02:08] <PovAddict> [21:34] <jrib> PovAddict: if you want to do it the nice way, install the .so somewhere (/opt or /usr/local/ or whatever you wish) and use the alternatives system to add an alternative for flash (I forget the exact name, but there shouldn't be too many that say "flash")
[02:08] <jrib> PovAddict: pastebin: ls -l /etc/alternatives
[02:08] <Whiper> asonge_: hey i wanted to install that files
[02:08] <jrib> Casper1: seems like everything is right then.  Your file is empty.
[02:09] <Casper1> jrib: would that have to do with using an alternate install cd?
[02:09] <PCTeacher012> The one i know is Synfig Studio. There is also one called Flash4Linux or F4L if i remember right
[02:09] <mac9416> Hello, if the same package is available from multiple sources, how does APT decide which source to install it from?
[02:09] <PovAddict> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu.com/287458/
[02:09] <jrib> Casper1: well you don't need an xorg.conf at all.  I doubt it has anything to do with the use of the alternate cd
[02:09] <PCTeacher012> mac9416: The one that has the fullest package
[02:10] <PCTeacher012> The most amount of referrals to it
[02:10] <mac9416> PCTeacher012, fullest?
[02:10] <Casper1> jrib: how would i go about changing the resolution then?
[02:10] <jrib> !fixres > Casper1
[02:10] <mac9416> PCTeacher012, ah OK. What kind of referrals?
[02:10] <PovAddict> !version
[02:10] <jrib> PovAddict: waht ubuntu version?
[02:10] <PovAddict> I'm on hardy
[02:11] <Balsaq> can the installation of a correct video card with its own dedicated memory, make my youtube video run at the correct speed (they are too slow now)
[02:11] <PCTeacher012> mac9416: There are multiple dependencies. So it chooses one that has installations to the dependencies. Normally, it will not be in multiple respitories though.
[02:11] <jrib> PovAddict: that's why.  Either create your own alternative if you care or just drop the file in there, doesn't really matter
[02:11] <mac9416> PCTeacher012, thanks much.
[02:11] <Whiper> hello can any body help me install wifi patch
[02:11] <PCTeacher012> Balsaq: Did you install Flash Player from Adobe as the plugin, and not Gnash?
[02:11] <PCTeacher012> mac9416: No problem
[02:11] <asonge_> Balsaq: some drivers are more choppy than others for flash video on linux
[02:11] <jrib> Whiper: did you read the wifi documentation ubottu sent you?
[02:12] <Balsaq> PCTeacher012:yes took the flash
[02:12] <PCTeacher012> Balsaq: Okay, just making sure. What browser do you currently use?
[02:12] <Balsaq> ubuntu904
[02:12] <Balsaq> and took all the kazillion updates
[02:13] <Whiper> its fine i just want to install this file
[02:13] <Balsaq> firefox
[02:13] <jrib> Whiper: read the wifi documentation
[02:13] <Balsaq> PCTeacher:firefix with ubuntu904 and flash
[02:13] <Whiper> jrib
[02:14] <shaullx> how do i give folder permissions?
[02:14] <Whiper> jrib: hey can u teach me to install
[02:14] <PCTeacher012> Balsaq: Firefox YT was slow on my computer too. I installed Google Chrome. Pages loaded much faster and YT videos played correctly. Install from:http://gtk-apps.org/content/show.php/Google+chrome?content=112341
[02:14] <shaullx> i need to make an archive from a folder and it says i dont have permissions
[02:14] <jrib> Whiper: no, I can only give you the wifi documentation so you get your wifi working without breaking your install
[02:14] <jrib> shaullx: what are you doing exactly?
[02:14] <PCTeacher012> The debian packages will work for ubuntu, just choose your version (32 bit or 64 bit)
[02:14] <shaullx> jrib i just told you trying to make an archive
[02:14] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: there's a managed ppa for chromium on linux
[02:15] <Axess_Denied>  psubuntu
[02:15] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: so you can just apt-get it and get updates
[02:15] <jrib> shaullx: "exactly"?  i.e. where?
[02:15] <PovAddict> Google also has an apt repo
[02:15] <PovAddict> with chrome, picasa, and other proprietary software
[02:15] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: This is not chomium. This is the browser from Windows. V 4
[02:15] <PCTeacher012> of Google Chome. Not Chomium
[02:15] <shaullx> jrib what do u mean where? desktop
[02:15] <PCTeacher012> Chromium*
[02:15] <Balsaq> PCTeacher: the vids play but slow, i think it because old ATI vid cards do not have drivers connected to ubuntu? found out geforce fx 5200 ago card fits my 200watt PS and HAS drivers for ubuntu? any chance that is a fix- i am a non tech could be WAY off with my idea
[02:15] <jrib> shaullx: you're trying to create an archive on your desktop and you do not have permissions?  Is this correct?
[02:16] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: the one from apt seems like it'd be faster (new updates, etc)
[02:16] <shaullx> jrib yes the folder is copied from my hdd im on live usb
[02:16] <PCTeacher012> Balsaq: Have you tried installing its propritory drivers?
[02:16] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: Maybe, what is the command? sudo apt-get install chromium? Ill check if it is faster
[02:16] <asonge_> chromium-browser
[02:16] <jrib> shaullx: in that case, just use gksudo nautilus
[02:16] <PCTeacher012> aaah. Okay, thanks asonge_ Ill check it out
[02:16] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: sources are here: https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa
[02:16] <Axess_Denied> balsaq: still having issues with the flash videos?
[02:17] <Balsaq> PCTeacher: someone had me look in the ubuntu propietary driver file and none were in ther...heard there are none for old ATI Xpert cards?
[02:17] <PCTeacher012> Hmm. I dont know, mine is ubuntus driver (I have nVidia RIVA TNT2 Pro Model 64 :P)
[02:17] <Balsaq> Axess_Denied:yes but may have a way to fix it cross referencing my idea now
[02:17] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: No package for chromium-browser
[02:17] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: you didn't add the source.
[02:17] <Axess_Denied> Balsaq: you should also try looking at ATI's site for drivers
[02:17] <smokie> hey guys, whats an old version that works with older hardware and still has its repos up?
[02:18] <smokie> 7.10 dont have repos anymore
[02:18] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa
[02:18] <Balsaq> PCTeacher: heard ubuntu luvs nvidia...ATI bad for nvidia
[02:18] <smokie> have to b manually updated
[02:18] <PCTeacher012> asonge_:  fORGOT TO HAHA
[02:18] <smokie> which is complicated for me
[02:18] <PovAddict> smokie: old versions have security vulnerabilities, not speed
[02:18] <PovAddict> use a new version of fast software
[02:18] <Axess_Denied> balsaq:  Try this site for reference :  http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx
[02:18] <PovAddict> eg. don't use a modern KDE, use something like XFCE instead
[02:18] <smokie> PovAddict, its a p3 machine with 64mb of ram
[02:18] <Balsaq> Axess_Denied: heard there is an issue with old ATI cards...they have some stuff for radeon mine is Xpert though
[02:19] <PCTeacher012> Balsaq: Possible. I dont know, i have no computer with ATI that i know of. I have 2 old computers. Both nVidia from my understanding.
[02:19] <asonge_> smokie: go for xubuntu on that, that might be runnable
[02:19] <smokie> PovAddict, i was reading the ubuntu docs and it was recommended to use 7.10 or 6.06 ofr older hardware
[02:19] <asonge_> ATI has relatively recently released good 3rd party drivers.
[02:19] <canthus13> smokie: Exen xubuntu is gonna need more memory.
[02:19] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: Is there any key i need?
[02:19] <canthus13> s/exen/even/
[02:19] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: that page wasn't the source, it was the instructions with the gpg key l ink
[02:19] <smokie> is there a place to read on what versions have repos still live?
[02:20] <canthus13> smokie: You're going to need something really lightweight... Or you're going to need to add memory.
[02:20] <spiderbatdad> smokie, try puppy or knoppix
[02:20] <canthus13> smokie: 128 mb is absolutely the minimum.
[02:20] <Balsaq> PCTeacher:nvidia openly accepts and gives their proprietary info to ubuntu andlinux, was told ATI did not or at least was not helping get them all set up and seems too have left a lot of older stuff out
[02:20] <canthus13> smokie: Puppy or DSL, maybe.
[02:20] <PovAddict> smokie: Ubuntu documentation wouldn't *recommend* an unsupported version
[02:20] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: Aaah, i found that out right before haha
[02:21] <Balsaq> PCTeacher: someone, whether it is ubuntu or ATI has not made sure all the drivers are there for thr OS to make the vid card run coreectly.
[02:21] <smokie> PovAddict, it does actually.. atleast thats what i understood from the doc.. let me read it again
[02:21] <smokie> canthus13, hmm thought it would run on 64mb
[02:21] <PovAddict> unless 6.06 is still in LTS support
[02:21] <canthus13> smokie: Nope.  Not much will run on 64mb.
[02:21] <asonge_> smokie: DSL or a heavily hacked linux might still make it on 64MB
[02:22] <canthus13> PovAddict: 6.06 server is.
[02:22] <iamelite> Does anyone know how i can format and parition a small HARDDRIVE to act in stead of a CD ROM for purpose of BOOTING as such?
[02:22] <smokie> PovAddict, "If your specifications are lower than the minimum requirements but you still want to install Xubuntu in your machine, please consider using pre-8.04 releases (preferably try 7.10 first and go to 6.06 (LTS) if you can't get it working).
[02:22] <smokie> "
[02:22] <Axess_Denied> balsaq: the Xpert series card sall had the Rage 128 processor. Here is the linux driver you need to try
[02:22] <smokie> but thats for xubuntu though
[02:22] <Axess_Denied> balsaq: http://linux.die.net/man/4/r128
[02:22] <canthus13> iamelite: Isn't that what a hard drive normally does?
[02:22] <smokie> asonge_, hmm i never heard of DSL.. its a linux distro?
[02:22] <Balsaq> PCTeacher: i hate window so much i am willing to buy a vid card that has driver support for ubuntu, but being a certified non-tech i wonder if i have a clue
[02:23] <canthus13> smokie: Damn Small Linux.  It'll run on pretty much anything.
[02:23] <asonge_> smokie: damn small linux...it may be abandoned, but i used it 5 years ago
[02:23] <PovAddict> smokie: that page was written when 8.04 was current
[02:23] <Balsaq> Acess_Denied: really, you think there is driver support for me?
[02:23] <canthus13> smokie: It's still active, actually.
[02:23] <PovAddict> smokie: please post a link so someone can fix it ;)
[02:23] <canthus13> smokie: It uses the 2.4 kernel, tho, so don't expect much in the way of modern hardware support.
[02:23] <canthus13> smokie: It runs well,t hough.
[02:23] <iamelite> canthus13, I mean to say, as to boot up a setup disk from a small harddrive, IE: A windows install disk, Linux iso, etc...
[02:23] <smokie> PovAddict, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements
[02:23] <smokie> canthus13, hmm
[02:24] <smokie> well i want it for ssh tunneling
[02:24] <smokie> and small stuff like that
[02:24] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: I got the key and everything imported. Just gotta install now haha
[02:24] <canthus13> iamelite: Ah. You'd run into serious issues when you remove that drive.
[02:24] <canthus13> iamelite: Particularly with windows not being able to find itself.
[02:24] <ramseize> llon/j #xubutu
[02:24] <PCTeacher012> ill let you know how it is soon asonge_ It is installing
[02:25] <iamelite> canthus13, well my DVDburners dead, and i dont really want to buy a new. There must be some cleverness i can instill using a small harddrive
[02:25] <canthus13> smokie: http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/
[02:25] <canthus13> iamelite: Use a thumb drive.
[02:25] <iamelite> canthus, only have a 4gig, its a 6gig image.
[02:26] <ramseize> can anyone tell me what is the best dock in xubuntu?
[02:26] <kasansweat> I'm not sure of the exact differences between scp and sftp -- but is there a way to copy a bunch of files in one line (eg in a bash script) with ftp?
[02:26] <canthus13> iamelite: Dunno what to tell you, then... unless you have an external drive you can use.
[02:27] <ramseize> is awn the best dock for xubuntu?
[02:27] <iamelite> hmm
[02:27] <smokie> thanks guys
[02:27] <smokie> just one last thing,
[02:27] <canthus13> smokie: NP
[02:27] <maelstrom> what do I do to figure out what kind of wireless card I have?
[02:27] <smokie> is there a place to find out what repos are still active for what versions of ubuntu?
[02:27] <canthus13> maelstrom: From the command prompt, type lspci
[02:27] <Tehedra> Anyone know of a howto to optimize a mysql install?
[02:27] <gartral> how do i scan my network to see all the hardware attached to it? (computers, switches, gateway)
[02:27] <canthus13> maelstrom: That will tell you everything in your system.
[02:28] <edbian> I am using NIS and all of my nis users are missing things from the menu.  Why?
[02:28] <canthus13> smokie: If it's supported, they're active. So, Hardy, Intrepid, Jaunty, and Karmic.
[02:28] <Jake> I'm currently running Windows 7 and I love it but I'm still considering dual booting Ubuntu.  What do you think?
[02:28] <dirka> is there a way to directly control  a linux box aside from going through ssh?  i do not have a working keyboard on the box itself but need to use the display its connect to
[02:28] <canthus13> smokie: for desktop, anyway.
[02:28] <canthus13> Jake: Go for it.
[02:29] <canthus13> dirka: On screen keyboard.
[02:29] <canthus13> dirka: Or VNC
[02:29] <Jake> canthus13:  I'm just not quite sure when I would use Ubuntu rather than Windows 7
[02:29] <maelstrom> thanks canthus13
[02:29] <canthus13> Jake: For anything other than gaming.
[02:29] <canthus13> maelstrom: No problem.
[02:29] <smokie> canthus13, i see.. any reason why Gutsy version is not listed there?
[02:29] <dirka> but will vnc work on console level?  xterm isnt working due to ati driver issues
[02:29] <maelstrom> Any obvious reason why my laptop would not be able to detect a wireless network with a hidden broadcast when I've entered all the info correctly?
[02:29] <canthus13> smokie: Gutsy is no longer supported as of april of this year.
[02:30] <asonge_> dirka: you can start a screen session on the display
[02:30] <canthus13> smokie: 18 month support cycles and all.
[02:30] <maelstrom> My roommate bought a new router and kept all the settings the same, but now my laptop doesn't pick it up. My phone still sees it though and wifi works on it (since the settings are all the same)
[02:30] <asonge_> dirka: screen is like a multi-workspace cli...you get normal cli and ctrl+a to start a new term... man screen for more
[02:30] <canthus13> maelstrom: Will your laptop pick up anything else?
[02:31] <maelstrom> canthus13, yes it sees all my neighbors' (password protected *grumble*) networks
[02:31] <smokie> canthus13, ah i didnt know that.. is it difficult to upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04?
[02:31] <PCTeacher012> Chromium & myspace: 3 seconds 37 ms. Chrome and Myspace: 4 seconds 73 ms. Chomium and youtube: 5 seconds 32 ms. Chrome and youtube: 2 seconds 58 ms
[02:31] <canthus13> maelstrom: Heh. Some wireless cards do no like some routers. It's annoying.
[02:31] <canthus13> smokie: Nope. click a button and you're off.
[02:31] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: i have it in a lot less time than that...
[02:31] <Jake> canthus13:  If I install via the liveCD could I delete the partition using window's partition manager if I wanted to?
[02:32] <canthus13> Jake: Yep.
[02:32] <smokie> cool.. i should give that a try
[02:32] <smokie> thanks for the help
[02:32] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: you want to try again, or clear your cache? those stats sound like the difference between caching
[02:32] <n0ah> yea guys it was the display driver
[02:32] <canthus13> smokie: If you go to the update manager, it should give you the option to upgrade to Hardy.
[02:32] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: Really? I'll do that. One more seconds
[02:33] <smokie> canthus13, i dont have that one connected to the internet so i never checked or noticed, but i will
[02:34] <canthus13> smokie: It should come up automatically after it checks for updates.
[02:34] <dirka> heres my issue:  i need to troubleshoot my ati video drivers (grrr).  i am currently on my laptop, and i dont believe i can view xterm through ssh.  so i need a way to have my input on my laptop affect the default display.
[02:34] <dirka> so kinda like a vnc for the console level
[02:35] <blaylock> drika X forwarding with ssh?
[02:35] <PCTeacher012> Chromium and YT: 4 seconds 9ms. Chromium and myspace:3 seconds 21 ms. Chrome and YT:3 seconds 82 ms. Chrome and Myspace:3 seconds 21 ms.
[02:35] <asonge_> hrm *shrug*
[02:36] <dirka> blaylock, sorry, not quite sure what that is. :/
[02:36] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: but here, chromium gets daily updates.
[02:37] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: What again is the command to check free memory? and  Wow, really?
[02:37] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: i just use htop
[02:37] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: and yeah, that repo points to daily builds
[02:37] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: K thanks
[02:37] <asonge_> (htop is like 5 times better than top...and looks way better when on acid)
[02:37] <blaylock> drika google X forwarding with ssh
[02:38] <mgv1> how can i set text editor in gftp?
[02:38] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: Htop is what?
[02:38] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: you know the cli app "top"?
[02:38] <il5anto> hi all
[02:38] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: Lol, nope
[02:38] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: htop is a colorized version of that
[02:38] <asonge_> oh, this is for cli-land
[02:38] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: ...? What?
[02:39] <il5anto> any people have a free google wave invite ?
[02:39] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: go in the cli and type "top"
[02:39] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: I installed htop from terminal (htop_
[02:39] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: yeah, you can compare to htop
[02:39] <asonge_> (command is htop)
[02:40] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: KK, testing now
[02:40] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: Uhm.. That doesnt tell me my free ram :P How do i check what my free ram is?
[02:40] <asonge_> PCTeacher012: free
[02:41] <PCTeacher012> Total: 509004. Used, 438692. Free, 70296.
[02:41] <bp> hii
[02:41] <bp> is it best to use a ppd file than not?
[02:41] <lstarnes> PCTeacher012: try free -m
[02:42] <PCTeacher012> There we go lstarnes Thanks :) Total: 497. Used: 428. Free: 68
[02:42] <revf> I'm having a really weird problem with the version of gparted that's on the jaunty usb stick
[02:42] <revf> http://paste.ubuntu.com/287470/
[02:42] <lstarnes> PCTeacher012: technically, free gave you the correct answer, but in KB instead of MB
[02:42] <mgv1> why does this happens often with gftp 'Error: Remote site ********** disconnected. Will reconnect in 30 seconds'
[02:43] <PCTeacher012> lstarnes: oooh okay haha. I am much more used to MiB not KiB :P
[02:43] <revf> is there a more specific room I can go to for help with gparted? (#gparted is empty)
[02:43] <revf> (ish)
[02:43] <PCTeacher012> revf: From what i know, there is no more room specific to gparted
[02:43] <revf> oh ok
[02:43] <revf> anyway
[02:44] <revf> for some reason when it runs e2fsck
[02:44] <PCTeacher012> revf: What exactly are you trying to do with gparted?
[02:45] <revf> well, my overall goal is to move one partition over to the right and shrink it, then expand the one to the left to fill the remaining space
[02:45] <revf> but the log at http://paste.ubuntu.com/287470/ is for just the first part
[02:45] <PCTeacher012> revf: ooooh, this from the USB?
[02:45] <revf> yeah
[02:45] <revf> for some reason when it runs resize2fs it doesn't work because it says it needs to run e2fsck
[02:45] <PCTeacher012> revf: Do you have ubuntu or some sort of partition are your computer?
[02:45] <revf> even though it just ran e2fsck
[02:45] <revf> yeah ubuntu is installed, I have a home partition, a user partition and a swap partition
[02:45] <revf> this is on the user partition, which is in the middle
[02:46] <Mach> 9.10 has too much errors
[02:46] <Mach> will the whole release would be good enough?
[02:46] <asonge_> Mach: to be fair, it's in beta.
[02:46] <lstarnes> Mach: #ubuntu+1 is for 9.10, not this channel
[02:46] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: Yea, that is true. but 9.10 will be better in full version
[02:47] <PCTeacher012> revf: Let's see. Can you not run GParted from your ubuntu partition? Or from the live CD?
[02:47] <asonge_> (hopefully, or else there'd never be a reason to upgrade :) )
[02:47] <revf> I don't think it's even installed on the ubuntu partition
[02:47] <PCTeacher012> asonge_: Yea, haha. If they truly can not make it better than 9.4.  No
[02:47] <PCTeacher012> But if one can be unmounted, yes
[02:48] <revf> maybe I should try updating gparted with apt-get?
[02:48] <revf> on the stick?
[02:48] <PCTeacher012> revf: You could try
[02:48] <PCTeacher012> revf: Worth a shot ;)
[02:48] <revf> it really seems like this is resize2fs's fault though
[02:48] <Mach> too many users
[02:49] <revf> it says "please run e2fsck first" right after gparted already ran e2fsck
[02:49] <PCTeacher012> revf: LOL, it might be but idk, im not expert on GParted,
[02:49] <revf> this is especially weird because I've done basically the same thing off this same stick before with no problem
[02:49] <PCTeacher012> revf: That is really weird... done anything on the stick since then?
[02:50] <revf> not really
[02:50] <revf> I do use it for file storage too but I haven't booted it or touched the ubuntu part
[02:50] <PCTeacher012> revf: Hmm.. You could also try making a bootable version of GParted.
[02:50] <PCTeacher012> revf: Download from their site and it has a bootable version, nothing else will be mounted
[02:51] <FloridaGuy> whats all this mean in my fstab....   ( /boot was on /dev/sda1 during installation )    http://pastebin.com/m480c1103    ....?
[02:52] <edbian> I am using NIS and all of my nis users are missing things from the menu.   I've just - for the first time - abandoned my GNOME desktop and logged in to KDE, and what I see? Nothing! Where are all my desktop icons?
[02:52] <b0xxy> bl
[02:52] <b0xxy> windows ftw
[02:52] <b0xxy> !
[02:52] <revf> OK, I guess i could try that.  I'm pretty reluctant to get rid of the bootable ubuntu though, and I only have one stick
[02:52] <revf> I guess I'll try googling around first
[02:52] <PCTeacher012> b0xxy: Windows sucks hahaha.
[02:53] <mgv1> would i need to download the latest ubuntu or the update will do that?
[02:53] <PCTeacher012> revf: Okay, and maybe you could temporarily cut the files from the stick into the computer
[02:53] <lstarnes> mgv1: you have to manually do it through the update manager
[02:53] <PCTeacher012> My computer can not boot from flash :P
[02:53] <uday> can u please help me out
[02:53] <kisuke> !ask | uday
[02:53] <PCTeacher012> uday: We cant until you ask the question
[02:54] <dcamp25> any SFTP  guys out there ?
[02:54] <mgv1> lstarnes, there are instructions?
[02:54] <lstarnes> !upgrade > mgv1
[02:54] <shane2peru> dcamp25: what is the question?
[02:54] <uday> i am unable to get the sound in ubuntu  can help me
[02:54] <shane2peru> dcamp25: I'm not a real sftp guy, just wondered about the question. :)
[02:55] <PCTeacher012> uday: In a certain program or overall?
[02:55] <lolyea> uday: do you have any clues to why?
[02:55] <dcamp25> I am trying to backup Cisco Call Manager to ubuntu 9.04 will not work.  all other sftp functions work.
[02:56] <shane2peru> dcamp25: ooops, over my head, perhaps someone can help you.
[02:56] <PCTeacher012> uday: What version of ubuntu do you have?
[02:56] <dcamp25> I 9.o4
[02:56] <mgv1> lstarnes, so its just a button to press
[02:56] <lstarnes> mgv1: it's a bit more involved
[02:56] <dcamp25> I belive the issue may be that Call Manager does not understand encrypted streams......
[02:57] <lstarnes> mgv1: you may need to do other things.  Check the upgrade notes when upgrading
[02:57] <dcamp25> Is there a Cisco Group ?
[02:58] <Cr4zy_B0y> how to remove background when booting Ubuntu ?
[02:58] <PCTeacher012> uday: You still there
[02:58] <mgv1> lstarnes, im hoping nothing will collapse with it when upgrading
[02:58] <bp> hi
[02:58] <lolyea> uday has quit (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
[02:58] <durt> dcamp25, #cisco or ##cisco
[02:58] <lolyea> i think
[02:58] <Cr4zy_B0y> ?
[02:58] <mgv1> how can i test my laptop microphone better after not hearing nothing in the recorder?
[02:58] <bp> i can print! :).. so simple.. however when i print with evince (pdf document), the page is blown up when i print to letter size page..
[02:59] <bp> does it have anything to do with ppd?
[02:59] <PCTeacher012> lolyea: Ooooh ,okay. Well, he obviously can not get much help..... haha
[02:59] <bp> mgv1, u mean, "not hearing" "anything"
[02:59] <bp> mgv1, check if its using alsa, and check the mic volume with alsa tools
[03:00] <lolyea> pigeon sux
[03:00] <PCTeacher012> lolyea: It does, that is why i use irssi ;)
[03:00] <mgv1> bp- yes yes yes
[03:00] <lolyea> and i use xchat
[03:00] <Formode> mgv1: Pidgin*?
[03:00] <Formode> Trying to get compiz-deskmenu working right now. Got it running with hotkeys... But not just from clicking. Is there any way to bind an action to the wallpaper in compiz? (Say like right click on wallpaper launches ____?)
[03:00] <hwl> Error! DKMS tree already contains: vboxdrv-2.1.4
[03:00] <hwl> You cannot add the same module/version combo more than once.
[03:00] <PCTeacher012> lolyea: I have that installed, it was intstalled when i installed the package xubuntu-desktop. But i never used it ;)
[03:00] <hwl> how do i fix this
[03:00] <durt> !splash | Cr4zy_B0y
[03:00] <hwl> i want to remove virtualbox app
[03:01] <lolyea> PCTeacher012: its awesome u gotta try it
[03:01] <Cr4zy_B0y> no no
[03:01] <PCTeacher012> lolyea: Ill log in in a diff name and see how it is
[03:01] <mdg> anyone know how to get streamtuner to load all the stations available?
[03:01] <lolyea> PCTeacher012: its alot like irssi lol
[03:01] <Cr4zy_B0y> when booting
[03:01] <Cr4zy_B0y> not startup time
[03:01] <durt> Cr4zy_B0y, then what do you mean?
[03:01] <hwl> nvm
[03:01] <mgv1> formode: not working when i try to open a jabber account
[03:01] <Formode> mgv1: You're doing it wrong.
[03:02] <revf> PCTeacher012: apparently it's a known bug that happens for pretty complicated-seeming reasons, I'll have to try to figure it out some other time
[03:02] <cody__> lolyea, I am now in XChat. But one thing i LOVE about irssi is that i can type just l and click tab and it finished your name, not lol then tab ;)
[03:02] <revf> but it doesn't sound like bootable gparted would help
[03:02] <revf> thanks anyway
[03:02] <Cr4zy_B0y> after choice ubuntu in grub
[03:02] <PCTeacher012> revf: Ooooh. okay. Your welcome
[03:02] <mgv1> formode: really?
[03:02] <lolyea> cody__: that is aweosme
[03:02] <Cr4zy_B0y> the screen with ubuntu logo
[03:02] <mdg> anyone know how to get streamtuner to load all the stations available?
[03:02] <Cr4zy_B0y> i want remove it to show which is running
[03:02] <cody__> lolyea, It is. XChat so far is nice, i like being able to scroll :P
[03:03] <kisuke> Cr4zy_B0y:  try ctrl + alt + (anumber beteween 1 - 6)
[03:03] <lolyea> cody__: yea
[03:04] <cody__> irssi does not allow you to :P But i still perfer it as of now lolyea
[03:04] <mdg> anyone know how to get streamtuner to load all the stations available?
[03:04] <lolyea> cody__: maybe shift+pgup?
[03:04] <mgv1> bp- i dont think i hear anything even after setting it to the highest in alsamixer
[03:04] <cody__> lolyea, Nope, tried everything :P Locked in place. If i miss something, i have no chance of seeing what it was :P
[03:04] <jrib> cody__: you can definitely scroll in irssi.  Try PageUp or ShiftPageUp
[03:04] <lolyea> cody__: think of when the server restarts Xp
[03:05] <PCTeacher012> Is there any way to get a windows-only stream to work on linux? If you need the site, ill post it, it is a radio
[03:05] <cody__> jrib, O_O Wow... I never knew that! I guess i never actually tested it! :P
[03:05] <jrib> PCTeacher012: i need the site..
[03:05] <PCTeacher012> www.sosradio.net
[03:05] <PCTeacher012> im pretty sure that is the url, it might be .org
[03:05] <mgv1> why i dont have spell checker even if i removed another language checker? for example in xchat
[03:06] <jrib> PCTeacher012: works fine with mplayer
[03:06] <PCTeacher012> how do i open it with mplayer?
[03:06] <lolyea> cody__: xchat and irssi are awesome compared to what my System 7.6.1 machine had
[03:06] <cody__> lolyea, What did it have? :p
[03:07] <dandaman> so i need help...I just installed ubuntu on another hdd using wubi from windows 7, now when i load up ubuntu, the 60gb hard drive that ubuntu is on isnt showing up in the file browser in ubuntu but shows up in windows, any ideas?
[03:07] <FonFon> is there a particular syntax that need to be used when entering checkinstall "provides" option? I cant seem to get apt to register it? figured i'd ask before making dummy packages...
[03:07] <lolyea> cody__: it had macirc 16day shareware v2.6 XD
[03:08] <jrib> PCTeacher012: well it probably works fine with other players as well, but if you wish to use mplayer then install the mozilla-mplayer package (or whatever it is).  Or just do in a console: mplayer -playlist 'http://www.christiannetcast.com/listen/dynamicasx.asp?station=sosradio'
[03:08] <PCTeacher012> lolyea: Wow! That is amazing :P:P:P:P:P:P (I switched back to irssi. I can not seem to leave it :P
[03:08] <lolyea> cody__: it ran that at startup instead of the FINDER!
[03:08] <PCTeacher012> jrib: Any idea about google chrome plugin for it?

[03:11] <dandaman> anyone wanna try to tackle my problem?
[03:11] <PCTeacher012> kk ill try both jrib Thakns
[03:11] <kisuke> FloridaGuy: gparted, but it does notrcome in an ubuntu install run "sudo apt-get instal gparted" at the comand line
[03:11] <jrib> !anyone | dandaman
[03:11] <lolyea> jrib: maybe mplayer-mozilla
[03:11] <dandaman> I just installed ubuntu on another hdd using wubi from windows 7, now when i load up ubuntu, the 60gb hard drive that ubuntu is on isnt showing up in the file browser in ubuntu but shows up in windows, any ideas?
[03:12] <dandaman> i asked it earlier jrib
[03:12] <jrib> lolyea: it's actually the other one
[03:12] <dandaman> no one answered :\
[03:12] <FloridaGuy> kisuke, ok
[03:12] <jrib> dandaman: think about why it is more effecient to just ask your question
[03:12] <PCTeacher012> lolyea: it is, mozilla-mplayer :P
[03:12] <dandaman> i didnt wanna spam by asking it twice
[03:12] <kisuke> dandaman: insta from a live cd to the partition you want to install to
[03:12] <lolyea> jrib: darn
[03:12] <mdg> anyone know how to get streamtuner to load all the stations available?
[03:12] <PCTeacher012> lolyea: :P
[03:13] <dandaman> kisuke: i tried that, grub would get messed up and not boot up
[03:13] <dandaman> kisuke: i NEED to use wubi
[03:13] <lolyea> PCTeacher012: i dont actually have the plugin
[03:13] <lolyea> PCTeacher012: I have mplayer tho
[03:13] <PCTeacher012> lolyea: I need it cause i need that site ;)
[03:13] <jrib> dandaman: but you're "spamming" the same by saying "anyone blah".  Even more in fact, because no one has any clue what your question is.  So on the offchance someone replies to you, you're going to have to ask your question anyway
[03:13] <il5anto> any people have see or test google wave ?!?!?
[03:13] <PCTeacher012> uhm... jrib will it install in shiretoko?
[03:13] <jrib> PCTeacher012: try and see
[03:14] <lolyea> jrib: good thing floodbot is here...
[03:14] <PCTeacher012> jrib: Lol, we'll see :P
[03:14] <dandaman> ok, you win, i dont feel like arguing about what is the best way to be polite in this channel, i'd rather try to get my question answered instead :\
[03:14] <kisuke> dandaman: why do you need to use wubi?
[03:14] <GodfatherofEire> So, does anybody else know if there's a package of the legacy backgrounds from Warty up till Intrepid?
[03:14] <dandaman> kisuke: because ubuntu wont load otherwise
[03:15] <jrib> GodfatherofEire: might be an easy project to start and maintain if you are interested and you find it doesn't yet exist
[03:15] <dandaman> i have no idea why but i spent way too much time in here trying to solve the problem until i just broke down and used wubi
[03:15] <kisuke> dandaman: have you verified the CD?
[03:15] <dandaman> yes
[03:15] <prakriti> what dictates what services show up in the services admin?  is there a better way to manage services?  a cmd line way perchance?
[03:15] <GodfatherofEire> jrib, thats just it, I think there already is one though, I'm just not sure where it'd be
[03:15] <jrib> prakriti: sysv-rc-conf
[03:17] <Linx> having problem with fglrx Xorg video since kernel upgrade on thursday last week
[03:17] <kisuke> dandaman: a does it give you an error at all? please describe what happens
[03:17] <dandaman> kisuke: i've moved past fixing grub, no way im going back to that nightmare
[03:17] <x-warrior> Where can I get more information about how and when to use the section code from launchpad? Actually i'm studing computer science and want to share some codes with the community
[03:17] <dandaman> wait, is filesystem the hard drive that ubuntu is installed on?
[03:17] <prakriti> jrib : brilliant!  thats precicely what I was looking for.  Thanks!
[03:17] <Linx> when I have the xorg drives installed X crashes with segfault when running X -configure
[03:18] <jrib> GodfatherofEire: search for packages with "wallpaper" in the name.  I see things like "edgy-wallpapers" coming up
[03:18] <kisuke> dandaman: i can agree with that had grub break on me before <shudders>
[03:18] <Linx> I tried installing drives from ATI
[03:18] <Linx> and still have the same program
[03:18] <dandaman> kisuke: basically the suicide hotline know me by name now
[03:19] <Doctor_Ify> Hey Hey hey
[03:20] <PCTeacher012> jrib: It will not work in Firefox 3.5 or firefox 3.0
[03:20] <PCTeacher012> i installed mozilla-mplayer
[03:20] <Linx> running ubuntu 9.04 x86_64
[03:20] <PCTeacher012> Is there anything else i need to do?
[03:21] <kisuke> WUBI EXPERT LINE ONE!!!
[03:23] <dandaman> so the hdd that ubuntu is installed on is ntfs, is that why it isnt showing up in places?
[03:23] <kisuke> dandaman: might help i don't know...
[03:24] <kisuke> !wubi | dandaman
[03:24] <lolyea> dandaman: it is a hard disk imag
[03:24] <dandaman> i do not understand :(
[03:24] <lolyea> dandaman: it is a file on your windows partition
[03:25] <dandaman> no
[03:25] <epaphus> Hey guys, when I import a VPN config with the built in Network Manager.. where does it save that config?
[03:25] <dandaman> i chose for it to be installed on my new hdd
[03:25] <lolyea> dandaman: u have to restart your computer with the cd in the drive
[03:25] <dandaman> im looking at gparted and it says that 11gb are used, the 11gb that is ubuntu
[03:25] <lolyea> dandaman: then install
[03:26] <dandaman> lolyea: i cant install off the CD, problems with grub
[03:26] <dandaman> ugh screw it im just gonna shrink the drive and reinstall ubuntu
[03:26] <lolyea> dandaman: wat does it do at startup?!
[03:26] <jrib> PCTeacher012: "touch"ing the plug-in files and restarting firefox should be sufficient, though I thought that recent firefox versions included some interface to select preferred plug-ins
[03:26] <lolyea> hes gonna screw everythin up!
[03:26] <rahearn> Does anyone know where the empathy buddy list is stored on karmic?  I'd like to sync to machines by keeping the directory/file on ubuntu one, but all i've found is the rather useless .config/Empathy/contact-groups.xml file
[03:27] <kisuke> dandaman: add a  100 MB partition to the root of your main drive and set it to mount as /boot
[03:27] <jrib> rahearn: #ubuntu+1 for karmic questions
[03:27] <rahearn> jrib: sorry
[03:27] <trakcyia> How do I customize the colors of my taskbar by making changes to the 'system theme'?

[03:28] <mgmuscari> does anybody know of a package that will play back what the microphone/line-in picks up in real time?
[03:28] <kisuke> !theme | trakcyia
[03:28] <Linx> also winbind
[03:28] <kisuke> doh
[03:29] <the_beav> will grub recognize my OS X partition?  and be able to boot to it...like chainload or something?
[03:30] <LLStarks> et
[03:30] <varmont> alow
[03:30] <varmont> alllow
[03:31] <fearful> where are is the icon folder in Jaunty
[03:31] <the_beav> /usr/share/icons
[03:31] <the_beav> ~/.icons
[03:32] <shaullx> i changed something probebly and now desktop effects and videos are not working
[03:32] <fearful> thanks lol
[03:32] <shaullx> i connected and external monitor to my netbook and played with resolutions and then it happened
[03:32] <the_beav> "i changed something probably" isn't gonna help us help you, man lol
[03:32] <shaullx> i reset everything back the way it was but still
[03:32] <varmont> bro ni aq baru pake linux cara update firefox entu gimana
[03:32] <varmont> bro ni aq baru pake linux cara update firefox entu gimana
[03:33] <the_beav> does ubuntu make a backup/original xorg.conf?
[03:33] <the_beav> if that's the case, shaullx, find it
[03:33] <shaullx> the_beav find what?
[03:33] <PCTeacher012> I cant see either panel
[03:33] <the_beav> and copy it over the xorg.conf that you modified
[03:33] <PCTeacher012> Why not?
[03:33] <PCTeacher012> It still works, but i dont see it
[03:34] <JacobT> hey room i have an ati card that artifacts on the rt hand side of my dipslay
[03:34] <shaullx> maybe i should restart gdm?
[03:34] <varmont> ada yg indonesia gak
[03:34] <varmont> ada yg indonesia gak
[03:34] <the_beav> if indeed, as it SHOULD, ubuntu has a backup xorg.conf -->/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup   (or xorg.conf.original) copy that over the current xorg.conf..and then restart X
[03:34] <mgv1> there is a way to rotate pictures of webpages?
[03:34] <PCTeacher012> How do i get to see the panels again?
[03:35] <the_beav> PC- alt+F2  then  "gnome-panel"
[03:35] <the_beav> or "gnome-panel &" in terminal
[03:36] <rigodeni1> when i play a game (both 2D or 3D) in windowed mode the screen flickers, black bars. And when i play fullscreen after a few mins of play the screen locks up completely. I have an ATI 4870 with ubuntu proprietary drivers activated. What should i do?
[03:37] <the_beav> rigoden: ATI + LINUX = crap....i have same problem...you can try 100 things...none of them worked for me
[03:37] <cfedde> in my case turning off extra effects helps
[03:38] <trakcyia> kisuke in particular, i'm not trying to install anything. all i really need is access to the images the theme uses and a copy of gimp
[03:38] <trakcyia> I just dont know where the actual theme images are
[03:38] <the_beav> cfedde is right...turn off all effects for a much better performance
[03:38] <bp0> ati rage 128 works great in linux
[03:38] <bp0> heh
[03:38] <the_beav> my radeon hd 2600xt is crap
[03:38] <bp0> yeah
[03:38] <the_beav> 45 dollar nvidia cards out perform it
[03:39] <JacobT> radeon 1300 is even more crap haha
[03:39] <JacobT> problem is i hav e a laptop
[03:39] <bp0> anything newer than the rade 128 isnt so good
[03:39] <trakcyia> bp0: the rage 128.. is really old isnt it? i think i had one 7 years ago
[03:39] <m0r0n> I know this is not Ubuntu related, but what format what I need to format my drive in order to install windows?(Still using Ubuntu don't kill me)
[03:39] <bp0> but that rage is awesome
[03:39] <cfedde> ati has really taken a beating lately.
[03:39] <bp0> trakcyia: yeah, that was kindof the joke
[03:39] <Tehedra> is there an irc client built into ubuntu that i can use through ssh?
[03:39] <bp0> it does work really rgeat tho
[03:39] <bp0> *great
[03:39] <Tehedra> i dont really want to have to install something
[03:39] <lolyea> bp0: rage 128 sux compared to radeon hd 4870
[03:40] <frogfoo> Tehedra: not intalled by default, but irssi is in the repositories
[03:40] <johnni> I am in Jaunty 9.04...I pull up skype fresh install only see Pulse Audio Sound Server listed...none of my alsa are listed for like picking my mic and that any ideas?
[03:40] <shaullx> what the hell happened, i install ubuntu on my netbook and everything worked ok, desktop effects worked, i installed video codecs and changed the resolution for my external monitor and now videos won't play and desktop effects cant be enabled, its like my video driver got deleted or something
[03:40] <gbear14275> looking for a download link for server 9.10 beta... the link is broken on the main page.  Found this:  http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/releases/karmic/beta/ but not sure its what I'm looking for
[03:40] <mgv1> how can i check what is wrong with a microphne after alsa didnt shoewd it is the problem?
[03:40] <trakcyia> m0r0n: use fat32 or ntfs, either one will work fine, but the windows install cd will guide you through that process you don't need to create a filesystem beforehand
[03:40] <the_beav> desktop effects and ati don't mix....i have OS X on my desktop w/ the 2600xt..and it ROCKS...however, can't even run xcompositor in ubuntu
[03:40] <gbear14275> is there a "regular" 9.10 server edition?
[03:40] <lolyea> m0r0n: u can use wubi
[03:41] <the_beav> well, i can RUN it...but do anything else, like full screen video...its crap
[03:41] <Keiya> ... ;_; I /still/ can't click in windows without gnome wanting to move them
[03:41] <trakcyia> then tell gnome to knock it off
[03:41] <rigodeni1> the_beav: well i have compiz fusion extra effects, they work flawlessly, its only games that seem to mess things up for me.
[03:41] <Tehedra> frogfoo, when i type sudo aptitude search irssi  i cant see it
[03:41] <shaullx> someone?
[03:42] <Keiya> I ----ing uninstalled and reinstalled the entire damn desktop component, I've done everything but reformat and reinstall from disk...
[03:42] <frogfoo> m0r0n: i think the windows installer will format whatever partition(s) it takes over itself. so you shouldn't worry about that
[03:42] <Keiya> Do I have to do that!?
[03:42] <Tehedra> oh i see it
[03:42] <gbear14275> shaullx: I'd use vlc... no need for codecs
[03:42] <m0r0n> trakcyia: Its on a seperate hard drive, and I reformatted with the windows disk to re-install windows and then it said it doesn't meet the requirements or something
[03:42] <Keiya> Man, my Vista partition lasted longer than three days...
[03:42] <frogfoo> Tehedra: odd. maybe it's in the universe repos or something
[03:43] <shaullx> gbear14275, im not talking about codecs, i installed them to use movie player. the problem is my display driver something happened to it
[03:43] <the_beav> rigodenil: anything fullscreen, games, videos, flash...will screw up with effects on...in all of my ati experiences
[03:43] <Tehedra> i found it frogfoo thanks :D
[03:43] <frogfoo> Tehedra: nope - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Irssi
[03:43] <shaullx> and its a netbook all the display drivers were installed by default without any problem
[03:43] <frogfoo> Tehedra: good :)
[03:43] <shaullx> i dont know what to do now
[03:43] <m0r0n> Does anyone use GPareted?
[03:43] <trakcyia> m0r0n: you really ought to be in ##windows, but if you're not meeting requirements it may be disk size, if your computer really doesn't meet the requirements, you can alter the installing with a program called nlite
[03:43] <gbear14275> shaullx: " i installed video codecs and changed the resolution for my external monitor and now videos won't play and desktop effects cant be enabled, its like my video driver got deleted or something..."  sounds like a codec problem
[03:44] <gbear14275> m0r0n: yes...
[03:44] <johnni> I am in Jaunty 9.04...I pull up skype fresh install only see Pulse Audio Sound Server listed...none of my alsa are listed for like picking my mic and that any ideas?
[03:44] <shaullx> gbear14275 codecs can cause desktop effects to not work? i used them before i just reinstalled ubuntu and they worked
[03:44] <shaullx> i dont know what happened now
[03:44] <m0r0n> gbear14275: There are keys beside a partiton, what does that mean?
[03:44] <gbear14275> shaullx: when you say codecs... what program are you talking about?
[03:44] <shaullx> gbear14275 "movie player"
[03:45] <shaullx> the default player
[03:45] <m0r0n> gbear14275: Also a "!" in a warning symbol
[03:45] <shaullx> gbear14275 it said it needs codecs and it searched for them and installed them
[03:45] <the_beav> VLC > Movie Player....by miles
[03:45] <gbear14275> m0r0n: means they are locked/mounted probably
[03:46] <m0r0n> gbear14275: Cool thanks.
[03:46] <gbear14275> shaullx: I apologize, but that does sound like a legit problem but I'm not going to be able to help you
[03:46] <gbear14275> shaullx: I don't know enough
[03:46] <gbear14275> shaullx: can you remember what codec it was that you were trying to install?
[03:46] <shaullx> gbear14275 ffdshow i think
[03:46] <shaullx> or something like that
[03:47] <johnni> how do I disable Ctrl Alt D minimizing my desktop windows?

[03:50] <the_beav> ANYBODY know if ubuntu will install next to my OS X partition and grub will be able to chainload it?
[03:50] <KB1JWQ> the_beav: rEFIt is your friend.
[03:50] <substancev> frogfoo: i can, however, return to desktop... BTW... im using Linux Mint... based off ubuntu...
[03:50] <cfedde> is there a hot key for maximizing a window vertically?
[03:51] <Prajjwal> !grub

[03:51] <KB1JWQ> Gah.
[03:51] <leaf-sheep> !resetpanel | PCTeacher012
[03:51] <the_beav> KB1JWQ :  cheers, mate...I'll be reading all about that in a few minutes....wouldn't happen to know of any good guides/how to's?
[03:52] <shaullx> KB1JWQ is hell a bad word? :|
[03:52] <KB1JWQ> the_beav: Yeah.  It's called "Read the documentation."
[03:52] <shaullx> is there a command that will start a video with vlc from terminal?
[03:52] <lolyea> PCTeacher012: i kind of still like xchat
[03:52] <substancev> shaullx: try running vlc -v from terminal and pastebin it
[03:52] <frogfoo> substancev: which video card?
[03:52] <PCTeacher012> leaf-sheep: Thanks :D
[03:52] <shaullx> ok i will
[03:52] <PCTeacher012> lolyea: Haha, yea, it might be hard to get off :P
[03:52] <the_beav> KB1JWQ: already there....pretty....funny...tho....i guess
[03:53] <chiggins> question: is there some kinda add-on to ubuntu that i could download to make it so the menu bars for programs would come up on the top task bar.... like a mac basically
[03:53] <lolyea> PCTeacher012: i think its compiz trancperancy on my term window that bothers me
[03:53] <Keiya> When running gnome, trying to click inside a window is causing it to be dragged (as if alt was held down). The title bar buttons and the panels still work. This has persisted through restarting gnome, restarting the machine, and uninstalling and reinstalling the entire desktop environment. Holding down alt while clicking, it acts as if alt wasn't held. How can I fix this?
[03:53] <leaf-sheep> chiggins: Google "gnome, global menu PPA" or something similar.
[03:53] <substancev> frogfoo: GeForce 7150M / nForce 630M (GPU 0)

[03:54] <gbear14275> I was wondering if someone could pass a link to me or some information about the upcoming 9.10 server edition?  I tried to download it from this link: http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/releases/9.10/  but its broken.  I found this page: http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/releases/karmic/beta/  but am not sure what version I'm looking for.  Can someone tell me about the upcoming server versions or by chance point me to the "regular" server .i
[03:54] <frogfoo> substancev: did you see this thread? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=585454 old but maybe it'll work
[03:55] <shaullx> substancev what does that mean
[03:55] <substancev> shaullx: looks like you either are running a video to powerful for your machine or you dont have vid drivers installed
[03:55] <substancev> just a guess
[03:55] <uman> Hello, I need a newer version of a package. Is there a way to just install one package from Karmic on my Jaunty system?
[03:56] <shaullx> substancev it can only be drivers but i didnt even need to install them they where preinstaleld by default its a netbook i never had any problems with that
[03:56] <uman> Before anyone asks, it's not in backports; I already checked
[03:56] <frogfoo> PCTeacher012: use /msg lolyea <whatever>
[03:56] <frogfoo> PCTeacher012: for pm
[03:56] <shaullx> substancev something went wrong and i dont know what and how to fix it
[03:56] <PCTeacher012> lolyea: I did
[03:56] <the_beav> uman: goto the products website..see if there offer a deb for the newer release you're loking for
[03:56] <shaullx> preinstalled*
[03:56] <substancev> frogfoo: i believe this is my solution..
[03:56] <uman> the_beav: they don't :(
[03:56] <frogfoo> PCTeacher012: then alt-p and alt-n to switch "tabs"
[03:56] <uman> it's python-sqlalchemy by the way
[03:56] <substancev> shaullx: let me correct this issue and ill try to help as much as i can
[03:56] <raudy> please see this.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/287508/
[03:57] <PCTeacher012> frogfoo: Alt p and alt n goes up/down page
[03:57] <frogfoo> PCTeacher012: wrong, i mean ctrl-p and ctrl-n to switch "tabs"
[03:57] <the_beav> uman: you can build from source, maybe?  just make sure the older package is removed
[03:57] <PCTeacher012> frogfoo: No other tabs?
[03:57] <shaullx> substancev ok what should i do then?
[03:57] <uman> the_beav: okay.
[03:57] <frogfoo> PCTeacher012: well, windows, whatever. if you /msg someone, you'll get them
[03:57] <shaullx> substancev it happened after i installed codecs for "movie player" and played with the resolution for my external screen
[03:58] <evon> can anyone please help me set up an ftp server?
[03:58] <ixian_> !karmic
[03:58] <gbear14275> join #ubuntu+1
[03:58] <gbear14275> oops lol hehe
[03:58] <PCTeacher012> lolyea: Well, i dont think compiz is actually needed ;)
[03:58] <PCTeacher012> woops
[03:59] <josh> does anyone remember that "game" for the Apple II where you could wire robots with logic gates and sensors then set them free in a room to complete some task?
[03:59] <frogfoo> evon: did you try these instructions? https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/serverguide/C/ftp-server.html
[03:59] <balsaq2> PCTeacher:you all tied up?
[03:59] <Keiya> josh: Robot Oddessy
[03:59] <frogfoo> evon: guess they're pretty old, but ftp servers probably haven't changed much...
[03:59] <PCTeacher012> balsaq2: What do you mean? :P
[03:59] <Keiya> josh: (I never played it, but there's a java rewrite somewhere)
[03:59] <balsaq2> can you pm me
[03:59] <evon> frogfoo: i will check it out. does it have a gui?
[03:59] <josh> Keiya: awesome! wonder if there's a contemporary version
[04:00] <balsaq2> PCTeacher: will you pm me?
[04:00] <frogfoo> evon: i doubt it. most servers do not.
[04:00] <PCTeacher012> balsaq2: I did
[04:00] <evon> frogfoo: that sucks. I'm not that good and commandline
[04:00] <Keiya> josh: Not that I know of, just a rewrite of the same thing, with the old look and everything, to run on modern hardware (and add a few little things like chips with different numbers of pins)
[04:00] <frogfoo> evon: don't worry, you'll learn by doing.
[04:00] <substancev> shaullx: try reinstalling your video drivers... what card do you have?
[04:01] <gbear14275> I was wondering if someone could pass a link to me or some information about the upcoming 9.10 server edition?  I tried to download it from this link: http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/releases/9.10/  but its broken.

[04:01] <josh> Keiya: thanks a ton!
[04:01] <josh> Even the Apple chan didn't know
[04:01] <epaphus> Hey guys, when I import a VPN config with the built in Network Manager.. where does it save that config?
[04:01] <shaullx> substancev there are no drivers to reinstall and i dont remember what card its something generic of intel im on a netbook
[04:01] <Keiya> josh: No problem!
[04:01] <raudy> how i can detect my ethernets
[04:01] <shaullx> substancev drivers where preinstalled i dont know if i can even download them for linux
[04:02] <dissected> hello
[04:02] <Keiya> Ah! I fixed my problem!
[04:02] <substancev> shaullx look for your drivers under menu->administration-> hardware/restricted drivers
[04:02] <substancev> i believe thats the path.
[04:02] <Mike_lifeguard> What is the standard wireless security I should be setting up?
[04:03] <shaullx> substancev nothing about display there i looked only wifi
[04:03] <Keiya> If anyone has Gnome constantly moving their windows instead of clicking them, open system->preferences->windows and use the keyboard (or hold alt_ to activate one of the options (alt is default). This should fix it!
[04:03] <gbear14275> Mike_lifeguard: wpa2 is a good choice
[04:04] <evon> frogfoo: so i followed the instructions and started the daemon so how to i allow someone to dowload my files?
[04:04] <prajjwal> hi, umm quick question .... i burned a .iso image(of Jaunty) to a CD-RW ... and when i tried to use it to install it on my friend's computer, it wouldn't recognize the CD .... is that a "wont work cause its a CD-RW thing" ????
[04:04] <frogfoo> evon: you need to put your files in the right place, so that vsftpd can find them
[04:05] <evon> frogfoo: why can't i just tell the program where to get them?
[04:05] <shaullx> /server -m irc.torrentleech.org/7011
[04:05] <shaullx> wtf
[04:05] <shaullx> :S
[04:06] <frogfoo> evon: yes, that would work too
[04:06] <prajjwal> btw i went into his BIOS after a couple of tries and disabled all the boot options other than the CD one ..... gave me some error about not being able to load ....
[04:06] <shaullx> why did it send to the channel
[04:06] <Out_Cold> prajjwal, you should be able to prioritize the boot options instead of disabling them
[04:06] <evon> frogfoo: ok I am reading the config file now to see if I can tell it where to get the files but I still have know idea how to have someone connect to it
[04:06] <Out_Cold> ** sorry if that's already done or i'm off by lots, i just joined in
[04:07] <frogfoo> evon: ok. i reckon you want to look for the anon_root config option in that file
[04:07] <shaullx> substancev so do u have any ideas?
[04:07] <disappearedng> Anyone familiar with how I can deal with the vodei wrapper?
[04:07] <Dr_butter> noisebridge
[04:07] <frogfoo> evon: once that's set up, hopefully you can tell people to put ftp://<your-ip-address-here>/ into firefox
[04:08] <frogfoo> evon: there are potential firewall/networking snags that depend on exactly how you're connected to the internet
[04:08] <Out_Cold> i had my ftp rooted cuz i failed to update my ftp server for a long time..
[04:08] <evon> frogfoo: ok you mind trying it for me if i send you the info?
[04:08] <frogfoo> evon: rightho
[04:09] <prajjwal> i tried taht ... but it still wouldn't read the CD and would boot from the HD ..... even when i F12'd and booted from CD ... a msg would flash up and it would go back to booting from Vista ..... it was only after i disabled the booting from all but the CD then i got the error (sorry i for got what the excact wording was .... but it was something like "cannot recognize device" ..... my CD-R on which i burned Har
[04:09] <prajjwal> dy DID install it properly on his though ... so i was just wondering ...
[04:09] <Lenin_Cat> were is the equalizer in VLC
[04:10] <Out_Cold> prajjwal, did he use the same disc?
[04:10] <prajjwal> the same CD-R for Hardy you mean ??? yeah ....
[04:11] <Out_Cold> prajjwal, i would try the disc in another computer or try another disc.
[04:12] <substancev> frogfoo: Thanks... although the steps were not for me it reminded me of what my solution was previously.. Its in the grub menu ... i had no vga=xxx setting for terminals... so it works now. thank you
[04:12] <Out_Cold> sometimes badly programed windows burn apps do a really poor job of iso burning
[04:12] <PCTeacher012> aaah, ubuntu is not nice to ATI. try to get the nvidia equivelant, Like about a nVidia RIVA TNT2 Model 64 Pro (I have that ;))
[04:12] <substancev> shaullx: how's it going with that
[04:12] <prajjwal> oh .. .so its not a CD-RW problem then ??? (i figure i screwed up somewhere ..) ...thanks ... i'll try it on other computers and see how it works ...
[04:12] <shaullx> substancev nothing new
[04:12] <torn> Is Karmic Koala going to give the option to install to an encrypted root partition during installation?
[04:12] <substancev> ok... paste that link from pastebin again
[04:13] <frogfoo> substancev: np :)
[04:13] <PCTeacher012> balsaq2: Since they say it would work, then go with it. I wasnt sure if such an old computer could handle a newer geforce
[04:14] <Out_Cold> prajjwal, it could be a number of problems to hardware, bad discs, poor burning, incompatible architecture
[04:14] <substancev> frogfoo: may i ask what exactly you searched that found that... i was looking for vitual consoles... tty i think would have gave me better results
[04:14] <substancev> shaullx: can you paste the pastebin url again?
[04:14] <_dan> so yeah
[04:14] <_dan> i told grub to install on a different disk instead
[04:14] <_dan> still get the error that it cant install grub
[04:14] <shaullx> substancev http://pastebin.com/m183ae428
[04:14] <_dan> am i pretty much SOL?
[04:14] <prajjwal> thanks Out_Cold, ...
[04:15] <_dan> really want to get linux to work on this comp
[04:15] <_dan> without reformatting a whole drive
[04:15] <_dan> >_<
[04:15] <frogfoo> substancev: ubuntu blank console, via http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=710789
[04:15] <mgv1> why i dont see previews of flvs?
[04:15] <_dan> is it confused because im on windows 7?
[04:15] <Keiya> Can anyone help me translate the student fork of these instructions? ( http://stustorage.uww.edu/webstoragedocs/connect-pc-webdav.html ) I've tried, but I keep getting "Cannot display location<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Not a WebDAV enabled share"
[04:15] <YungRipp> How do I restart my Kubuntu command bar at the bottom if it crashes?
[04:16] <Out_Cold> _dan, if you install grub where your windows is you don't actually format the windows partition, just your master boot record
[04:16] <frogfoo> substancev: the signal to noise ratio of the ubuntu forums is much higher than the rest of the web, so i usually include ubuntu in my searches
[04:16] <Out_Cold> _dan, i dunno bout windows 7 though
[04:16] <_dan> so i should tell it to install grub into my windows partition?
[04:17] <Out_Cold> if it asks you that, yes. it will allow you to boot both windows and ubuntu
[04:17] <_dan> well the default is (hd0) i think
[04:17] <Out_Cold> _dan, you should do the default grub installation without selecting the advanced options
[04:17] <uman> the_beav: okay.
[04:17] <substancev> shaullx: do all media players crash immediately?
[04:17] <_dan> but then you can also tell it to do /dev/sda, /dev/sda1 and stuff
[04:17] <Out_Cold> yes. that's the windows MBR
[04:17] <_dan> the default grub install fails though
[04:18] <Jack_Vermicelli> Heya, guys. I need help ejecting a dvd. :-P I get Failed to eject "/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_model_DVD_RW_AD_7170A". Given device "/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/storage_model_DVD_RW_AD_7170A" is not a volume or drive.
[04:18] <uman> the_beav: turns out I was able to go ahead and install the Karmic package. Why didn't you just tell me that to begin with?
[04:18] <shaullx> substancev yeah
[04:18] <shaullx> not only media players effects wont work its a driver problem
[04:18] <jasonmchristos> does 9.10 have rhythmbox?
[04:18] <Keiya> Can anyone help me translate the student fork of these instructions? ( http://stustorage.uww.edu/webstoragedocs/connect-pc-webdav.html ) I've tried, but I keep getting "Cannot display location<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Not a WebDAV enabled share" (Alternatively, there's OS X instructions at http://stustorage.uww.edu/webstoragedocs/connect-mac-webdav.html if thoise are more easily translatable)
[04:19] <_dan> installer just says, grub failed to install on hd0
[04:19] <substancev> shaullx: after you installed codecs where again?
[04:19] <_dan> and that its a fatal error
[04:19] <torn> _dan, how many physical hard drives do you have?
[04:19] <_dan> 5
[04:19] <the_beav> uman: it's probably not advised...and if it was a more complex graphical package, it more than likely would have called for dependencies that aren't in you're repos
[04:19] <substancev> shaullx: mplayer?
[04:19] <the_beav> uman: but that's good to know...
[04:19] <shaullx> yeah
[04:20] <abgalphabet> can i help testing the booting of 9.10 beta by deploying it on Virtualbox?
[04:20] <_dan> does the linux partition need to be at the beginning of the drive or something?
[04:20] <torn> _dan, no.
[04:20] <torn> _dan, how many physical hard drives do you have?
[04:20] <rwlove_> is there a specific sound channel for ubuntu? one that's not just alsa or pulse?
[04:20] <_dan> torn: 5
[04:20] <rwlove_> and by channel I mean irc channel
[04:20] <_dan> and when i try to do grub from cmd line i get this
[04:20] <_dan> grub> root (hd0,1)
[04:20] <_dan> Error 18: Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS
[04:20] <mgv1> i think its a bad thing to say 'ubuntu is os for humans' who decided on this?
[04:20] <torn> _dan, what does your setup look like? (Hard drive 0 has Windows, Hard drive 1 has...?)
[04:21] <_dan> hdd 0 is windows, the other 4 are data drives
[04:21] <Out_Cold> _dan, i haven't run into that problem before
[04:21] <uman> mgv1: agreed
[04:21] <torn> _dan, and you installed Linux on HD 0?
[04:21] <_dan> yeah
[04:21] <uman> mgv1: last I checked Ubuntu is an OS for computers ;)
[04:21] <_dan> its a 1.5TB drive
[04:21] <substancev> shaullx: could you run mplayer from terminal and paste bin it? i want to compare
[04:21] <_dan> i cleared 100gb at the end of the drive
[04:21] <_dan> after the windows partition
[04:22] <_dan> for linux
[04:22] <torn> _dan, how many partitions? (Windows is partition 1? swap is partition 2? /boot is 3? / is 4? /home is 5?)
[04:22] <shaullx> substancev how to run mplayer from terminal
[04:22] <frogfoo> mgv1: you think we should extend the evangelism to other species?
[04:22] <mgv1> uman, really funny
[04:22] <abgalphabet> how to hide the grub2 bootloader menu completely?
[04:22] <_dan> i just did windows is 1, ext3 is 2, swap is 3
[04:22] <_dan> i couldn't figure out how to get it to autogenerate the partitions
[04:22] <_dan> do i need a separate one for /boot?
[04:22] <torn> _dan, did you already install Linux? Or at you stuck at the installer?
[04:22] <mgv1> just a stupid name for this os
[04:22] <_dan> the installer fails out at the grub step
[04:22] <substancev> shaullx: in terminal just tupe gmplayer
[04:22] <torn> _dan, no you don't need a separate /boot, but it's recommended.
[04:22] <_dan> im on live cd
[04:23] <shaullx> substancev its not mplayer terminal says its not installed, its "movie player"
[04:23] <substancev> shaullx: in terminal just type gmplayer
[04:23] <rwlove_> abgalphabet: edit /boot/grub/menu.conf and change the timeout to 0
[04:23] <torn> _dan, but the last 3 partitions are unused? Nothing is installed to them?
[04:23] <substancev> shaullx: woops
[04:23] <Trizicus> i setup vsftpd and I cannot access (anonymously) my ftp server via firefox but it can be accessed anonymously via ftp. How do I fix this?>
[04:23] <_dan> the last 2 i created to install onto
[04:23] <_dan> so it has whatever the installer put on them
[04:23] <substancev> shaullx: in terminal type totem
[04:23] <_dan> before it tried doing grub
[04:23] <torn> _dan, I'm guessing you are trying to install Ubuntu?
[04:23] <Linuxteacher> How do i register my name again?
[04:23] <_dan> yeah
[04:24] <lstarnes> !register > Linuxteacher
[04:24] <Keiya> mgv1: So agreed, I can't get Ubuntu to run on me at all. Maybe I'm some knockoff russian human?
[04:24] <frogfoo> Trizicus: i don't understand. firefox speaks ftp (that is, the ftp protocol) and you seem to be saying that it can be accessed via ftp
[04:24] <torn> _dan, no need to do all this "prep work" before installing. The Ubuntu installer allows you to do a manual partition setup (with Gparted) and then you can create the partitions and install the OS in one go.
[04:24] <frogfoo> Trizicus: how can it be accessed, exactly?
[04:24] <_dan> yeah i made the new 2 partitions with gparted in the installer
[04:25] <Trizicus> i can access it anon through ftp command however cannot do so in a browser or filezilla for example
[04:25] <_dan> and then proceeded to install onto them
[04:25] <evon> frogfoo: question for you
[04:25] <_dan> except the installer failed at doing grub
[04:25] <abgalphabet> set the grub timeout to 0, but it still display "Welcome Grub" or "Loading Grub" sth...message on the screen. can i hide this message also?
[04:25] <frogfoo> evon: mm
[04:25] <shaullx> substancev http://pastebin.com/m6ae25d9e
[04:25] <torn> _dan, I recommend this setup: Partition 1 - Windows, Parition 2 - swap, Partition 3 - /boot, Partition 4 - /, Partition 5 - /home
[04:25] <mgv1> just a silly thing to call ubuntu 'for humans'
[04:25] <evon> if I chmod a directory so that ftp users can download from it but not write to it. will i still be able to write to that directory?
[04:26] <torn> _dan, and then GRUB will be installed and replace the current MBR on HDD 0, and it will automatically add "Windows" to the list of OS's to choose from when you boot up the computer.
[04:26] <torn> _dan, the GRUB files will be installed on /boot
[04:26] <frogfoo> Trizicus: what happens when you put ftp://localhost/ into a browser running on the server?
[04:26] <substancev> shaullx: im sorry could you do it again this time type totem --sync
[04:26] <jjrev> mgv1: are you aware of the meaning of the word "ubuntu" ?
[04:26] <Trizicus> it times out
[04:26] <frogfoo> evon: well, you're asking the question backwards
[04:26] <torn> _dan, /boot I recommend ext2, while / and /home I recommend ext3 (or ext4)
[04:26] <Trizicus> err nevermind...
[04:27] <evon> frogfoo: how so?
[04:27] <Trizicus> now it's working (and yes I restarted service before to be sure)
[04:27] <frogfoo> evon: you mean: can I chmod a directory so that i can still write to it, but others cannot
[04:27] <frogfoo> evon: answer: yes
[04:27] <mgv1> jjrev, what is it?
[04:27] <torn> _dan, I just read what you wrote.
[04:27] <evon> frogfoo: thanks
[04:27] <jjrev> mgv1: it means "humanity towards others"
[04:27] <shaullx> substancev http://pastebin.com/m6e41ea03
[04:28] <mgv1> jjrev, sounds like robot
[04:28] <jjrev> mgv1: ?
[04:28] <Trizicus> frogfoo it works with localhost however it does not work with my IP address (router ip address) I've setup portforwarding and it wont work through firefox but using the ftp command it will work.
[04:28] <Balsaq> PCTeacher012: battery went dead sorry
[04:28] <mgv1> jjrev, the name ubuntu reminds me the word robot
[04:29] <frogfoo> Trizicus: Are you sure that you're putting ftp:// with the ip address into firefox?
[04:29] <substancev> shaullx: not really telling me much.. did you know what codecs it was going to install?
[04:29] <F3L1P3> somebody can help-me
[04:29] <Trizicus> yes
[04:29] <F3L1P3> ?
[04:29] <frogfoo> Trizicus: when you say it doesn't work, what happens exactly?
[04:29] <Trizicus> It works when i do ftp ip but not in firefox
[04:29] <mgv1> jjrev, so this is the actual name of ubuntu? by what languege?
[04:30] <shaullx> substancev i told you ffdshow
[04:30] <Trizicus> it times out with 425 error
[04:30] <ynk> my goodness! everybody is DEAD in the Netbeans channel. -sigh-
[04:30] <jjrev> mgv1: the word comes from Africa
[04:30] <Out_Cold> _dan, i agree with torn 100%. you should do separate drives for those partitions and USE the auto installer
[04:30] <ynk> all i need to be able to compile c++ apps.
[04:30] <F3L1P3> wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
[04:31] <F3L1P3> what means -O-?
[04:31] <_dan> wait
[04:31] <frogfoo> Trizicus: yes, but please explain exactly what happens when you try to access it in firefox
[04:31] <_dan> so do each partition on a separate drive? :/
[04:31] <frogfoo> Trizicus: in more detail than "it doesn't work"
[04:31] <_dan> @ Out_Cold
[04:31] <Balsaq> how do i pm someone?
[04:31] <frogfoo> Balsaq: /msg foo bar
[04:31] <Out_Cold> _dan, each partition a different /dev/sda##
[04:31] <Trizicus> When I try ftp://ip/ in firefox I get a 425 error. However when I try ftp ip it works just fine
[04:31] <Balsaq> thanks frogfoo
[04:32] <Out_Cold> _dan, same drive different partition
[04:32] <AutoMatriX> Hi folks, I've got to setup a complete webserver for a 2nd hand shop ... but I'm nowhere .... can one please give me a direction to look in ? thanks
[04:32] <_dan> alright ill try separate boot partition
[04:32] <_dan> if not maybe i can clear out my fourth drive temporarily and try it there
[04:32] <mgv1> jjrev, "humanity towards others" is also boring name
[04:33] <frogfoo> Trizicus: are you running firefox on the server?
[04:33] <Out_Cold> _dan, use the auto installer and select the manual partition install, there you use gparted to set up
[04:33] <torn> _dan, he means about separate partitions for swap, /boot, /, and /home
[04:33] <Linuxteacher> how do i run a script inside irssi? It is a perl file
[04:33] <Trizicus> Yes
[04:33] <Out_Cold> ^^
[04:33] <_dan> aight
[04:33] <jjrev> mgv1: what would you call it?
[04:33] <_dan> ill give the auto install another try
[04:33] <torn> (And use ext2 for /boot since ext3 and ext4 use a journal, which is needless for the /boot partition)
[04:34] <Out_Cold> agreed
[04:34] <Linuxteacher> why doesnt linux use NTFS -_- lol
[04:34] <_dan> what would you recommend for sizes for these?
[04:34] <Out_Cold> although ext4 is turning out to be a fairly interesting FS
[04:34] <_dan> if i have 100gb to work with
[04:34] <jjrev> Linuxteacher: because we have Ext4 ;)
[04:34] <Linuxteacher> jjrev: LOL, is it better than ntfs?
[04:34] <torn> _dan, it depends.
[04:34] <Out_Cold> Linuxteacher, NTFS er and is windows.. and you can load the ntfs drive and mount the drives
[04:35] <Out_Cold> !NTFS
[04:35] <kindofabuzz> ntfs is probably not open source
[04:35] <mgv1> jjrev, "understanding robotic behaviur in humans" but what is the matter what is my suggestion the name doesnt pretty
[04:35] <jjrev> Linuxteacher: it's pretty quick, but i don't really have a comparison.. i don't use windows much at all
