[11:50] <brainly-green> how come when I try ls /etc/init.d I can plainly see a file called xinitd
[11:50] <linopil> soundray: ?
[11:50] <brainly-green> but when I try ls /etc/init.d/xinitd it says no such file or directory
[11:51] <linopil> soundray: now at ttp://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Intel&card=ICH+southbridge+HD-audio+and+modem.&chip=ICH6%2C+ICH6M%2C+ICH7%2C+ESB2&module=hda-intel
[11:51] <soundray> linopil: it means that the module loaded
[11:51] <citybird> soundray: thanks looking at it now!!
[11:51] <valehru> is it just me or does gftp crash a lot?
[11:51] <linopil> ok soundray silence is good you say what next ?
[11:51] <brainly-green> what reason could there be for a file to appear in a listing of the parent directory, but not appear when I try to list the file itself
[11:52] <denardo> eternalswd: OK, done, thanks.
[11:52] <tamacracker> is there a gaim channel?
[11:52] <tamacracker> i need to know how to install themes onto gaim
[11:52] <soundray> Eon_: do you have a line in /etc/X11/xorg.conf that says 'Load    "dri"'?
[11:53] <brainly-green> ok this is weird, if I try sudo ls -l /etc/init.d/xin* it returns the file
[11:53] <soundray> linopil: test your sound
[11:53] <brainly-green> if I try sudo ls -l /etc/init.d/xini* it fails
[11:53] <brainly-green> what could the difference possibly be
[11:53] <eternalswd> tamacracker, try #gaim
[11:53] <brainly-green> the file is called /etc/init.d/xinitd
[11:53] <Eon_> soundray: : thanks, but i found the problem. I had to disable composite extentions or something in Xorg.conf.  I tried that yesterday as well, but it didnt work for some reason but when i tried again now it worked. (guess there was something wrong with the syntax last night)
[11:53] <soundray> brainly-green: are you positively sure? Is it not called inetd ?
[11:54] <soundray> Eon_: well done
[11:54] <brainly-green> no, it's called xinitd
[11:54] <eternalswd> citybird, you might want to take a look at http://www.clamav.net/3rdparty.html
[11:54] <tamacracker> thanks
[11:54] <brainly-green> it's a pretty clear font
[11:55] <eternalswd> citybird, I see there's some software that can scan incoming mails using clamd
[11:55] <brainly-green> maybe a corrupted hard drive?  I noticed recently that something told me there was a miscount of the number of hard links
[11:55] <brainly-green> I think locate told me that a while ago
[11:55] <soundray> brainly-green: do me a favor and try 'sudo ls -l /etc/init.d/xine*'
[11:55] <brainly-green> oh my god

[11:55] <brainly-green> blind
[11:56] <soundray> brainly-green: typical case of the problem sitting at the keyboard
[11:56] <brainly-green> you're right, it's xinetd
[11:56] <soundray> :)
[11:56] <brainly-green> how could I have misread that so many times
[11:57] <jahid> hi, i am trying to install ubuntu in a desktop PC. i selected "/" and "swap". then i pressed the "Forward" button. but i get one message like "No root file system". can anyone help me about this?
[11:57] <eternalswd> brainly-green, probably because of the folder init.d.  I always think xinitd because of that ;)
[11:57] <cool-freak> what does it mean "mark" on the log?
[11:58] <soundray> cool-freak: that syslogd was still alive at this point in time
[11:58] <ForgeAus> ahh fixed..
[11:58] <ForgeAus> now if only I can fix my ubuntu too
[11:58] <eternalswd> what's wrong with your ubuntu?
[11:59] <ForgeAus> it gets 75% through the startup bar and then freezes
[11:59] <Eon_> soundray: hehe, that "fix" didnt get me far... i need Direct Rendering: Yes to install Beryl, but when trying to start beryl after instalation i get an error saying "missing composite extentions"
[11:59] <dave__> got kicked out, does anybody have insight into evms and ubuntu? I'm really stuck here ...
[11:59] <cool-freak> it seems that he was cheking something in evrery 20 minutes
[11:59] <cool-freak> for 80 minutes
[11:59] <eternalswd> ForgeAus, edgy I take it?
[11:59] <ForgeAus> no error... but I think I "cleaned up" (as in autoremoved) ubuntu-minimal (which at the time I didn't realize how important it was
[11:59] <cool-freak> and then it shutdown
[11:59] <ForgeAus> yes edgy
[12:00] <ytripppy> mmm quick question, how do i fix a OS freezing on boot after the message "real time clock driver"
[12:00] <soundray> Eon_: dang... What's your card?
[12:00] <ForgeAus> what I've done was managed to copy some stuff from the LiveCD I'm using now it helped but still not quite fixed...
[12:00] <eternalswd> ForgeAus, have you tried booting safe?
[12:00] <ForgeAus> I can get into the recovery console but no networking in there
[12:00] <denard1> eternalswd: Hm. Changing folders in Thunderbird froze it. I killed the UI, and got the same problem restarting it. And trying to rm the lockfile tells me that /share is again read-only.
[12:01] <Eon_> soundray: x1900xtx
[12:01] <ForgeAus> eternal yes but I don't really know what to do from there
[12:01] <soundray> Eon_: sounds recent enough
[12:01] <ForgeAus> I can't use aptitude to reinstall ubuntu-minimal from inside it
[12:01] <eternalswd> denard1, what's the permissions from "ls -l / | grep share"
[12:01] <Nhatz> question......
[12:02] <Nhatz> what does this mean....?

[12:04] <ForgeAus> lol I like that guifications :)
[12:05] <eternalswd> ForgeAus, next time you load safe, try the startx command after logging in.  It'll try to start and produce an error log where things go wrong that you can look at to help diagnose the problem.  You should also take a look into how to initialize wireless network via commandline
[12:05] <ForgeAus> um ok I'll try startx and come back let you know what it does
[12:06] <eternalswd> denard1, what's the permissions via "ls -l /share/users/jzitt/Thunderbird/Profiles/ | grep n3wp70kj"

[12:07] <beginner> ??

[12:11] <brainly-green> how do I check if it does, IntuitiveNipple?
[12:11] <IntuitiveNipple> brainly-green: See what soundray just said

[12:14] <arunagiri> hi all
[12:15] <beginner> is it?
[12:15] <Davo_Dinkum> Is it possible to make your background change at a set time? Like every 24 hours?
[12:15] <ForgeAus> eternal you still there?
[12:15] <lskd-255> beginner, for one instance, there are 2.4 and 2.6 python-wxgtk
[12:16] <beginner> lskd-255, the problem is aptitude seems to install it to python24 instead of python2.5
[12:16] <beginner> *python2.4
[12:16] <ForgeAus> beginner I had a simimlar issue with urlgrabber
[12:16] <ForgeAus> it tends to depend on what version you get...
[12:17] <ForgeAus> and python tends to be picky about what version it runs on :(...
[12:17] <ForgeAus> but you might be ok if you manually convert it over (just copy it and tell it if theres anything in the script to go to python 2.5 instead)
[12:17] <ForgeAus> they're mostly compatible
[12:18] <Davo_Dinkum> Is it possible to make your background change at a set time? Like every 24 hours? Anyone?
[12:18] <beginner> ForgeAus, I am afraid that it will break something..
[12:19] <soundray> Davo_Dinkum: in gnome?
[12:19] <Davo_Dinkum> soundray: Yes.
[12:19] <ForgeAus> beginner I doubt it'd BREAK something
[12:19] <brainly-green> it said it can't open display
[12:19] <brainly-green> hey is it a problem if I have a lot of programs open on the vnc server, or what
[12:19] <ForgeAus> but if your copying the SCRIPT itself (ie the .py files
[12:19] <brainly-green> is that normal
[12:20] <ForgeAus> it can only complain that it won't run or give you a compilation error of some sort
[12:20] <ForgeAus> if there's binaries I don't think you have a choice you pretty much have to be stuck with 2.4
[12:21] <lskd-255> beginner, all I can suggest is using synaptic and loading something found using wxpython in search.
[12:22] <ForgeAus> yeah packages that require it will probably work
[12:22] <ForgeAus> as long as they don't require python 2.5 also (which is unlikely)
[12:22] <brainly-green> also I can't open anything from the "preferences" menu--it gives me a gray window box that does not respond and has no widgets on it, and I have to manually close it
[12:23] <Jedrick> how can i view webcam on gaim?
[12:23] <brainly-green> not related to vnc, just off topic
[12:23] <IntuitiveNipple> Jedrick: as far as I recall, gaim doesn't support cams
[12:23] <denard1> Grr... I can't function with broken email. If I can't figure out a way around this read-only issue (or whatever is disguising itself with it), I'll have to boot into Windoze to get any work done.

[12:25] <frogzoo> anyone had a problem with amarok crashing while recreating the collection?
[12:30] <kentismaximus> i need help with setting up a usb isdn modem, can anyone help me?
[12:30] <denard1> OK, so a web page suggested that there was a problem mounting the partition, and that I should fsck it. fsck found some problems. I indicated at the prompt that it should fix them, but it exited saying that the filesystem was unchanged. And trying to change folders in Thunderbird after that still hangs. Is there a way to actually get this to work?
[12:32] <ForgeAus> um man fsck perhaps?
[12:32] <soundray> denard1: call fsck with -y to force the fixes
[12:32] <tamacracker> wtf shouldn't this theme install: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=51008
[12:32] <ForgeAus> or maybe you need to run it as root (so sudo fsck)?
[12:32] <tamacracker> on my ubuntu box
[12:32] <ForgeAus> or perhaps its mounted readonly .. you might need to mount it as read-write
[12:33] <tamacracker> br
[12:33] <tamacracker> b
[12:34] <soundray> denard1: btw, fsck should be run from recovery mode or, better yet, a live CD
[12:34] <denard1> Ah, so the interface to fsck is misleading. Damned if I know why someone would design a program to ask if you wanted to do changes and then ignore your response *sigh*
[12:35] <lskd-255> kentismaximus, as close as I can come to that is I am using a broadband modem that has the standard cat5 out to a usb linksys plug accessory
[12:36] <denard1> Ah, OK, doing it with the fsck -y seems to have solved the problem.
[12:37] <kentismaximus> lskd, its pretty difficult, because i dont know what to do, but the kernel has (im pretty sure) the necessary (CAPI) drivers built-in... and output of lsusb: "Bus 001 Device 002: ... AVM GmbH ISDN-Connecor TA", so its there, but how do i talk to it, what /dev/tty? is it?

[12:44] <TheSkorm> I can tell you what that python error means but that would achive nothing

[12:44] <silent_scream> ardchoille42,  well i have the movie ripped. alla ia need is a program that puts the subs into the avi
[12:44] <hazem> lol so do know any package i can use till i fix this problem ?
[12:45] <TheSkorm> you could try reinstalling it
[12:45] <hazem> or i should to do it by command line
[12:45] <hazem> i did
[12:45] <hazem> same error
[12:45] <TheSkorm> and make sure /etc/wifi-radar.conf is readable (chmod/chowner) and correct information inside
[12:46] <ardchoille42> silent_scream, Well, acidrip will rip a DVD movie and put the subtitles into the .avi file with the movie as long as you have the Subtitle drop down menu engaged in the "Other Stuff" section. But I don't know how to do it if you already have the movie ripped.
[12:46] <TheSkorm> thats all I can help you with though there may be others that have seen this error
[12:46] <TheSkorm> feel free to make a forum post too
[12:47] <silent_scream> ardchoille42,  is there a prog for win, so as to run it with wine?? (or try to...)

[12:49] <ardchoille42> jahid, The root account is diabled by default.
[12:49] <jahid> ardchoille42, how can i enable root account?
[12:50] <soundray> jahid: don't enable root, use 'sudo -i' and enter your user password
[12:50] <jahid> ubotu, if i know about sudo. but if i use sudo then which password i have to use?
[12:50] <ardchoille42> jahid, There's actually no need to log in as root. Enabling the root account is a security hole, IMHO, and is not supported configuration. I can't help you do that.
[12:50] <soundray> !root | jahid
[12:50] <ubotu> jahid: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:52] <ardchoille42> jahid, One of the good things about a disabled root account is if I wanted to break into your computer, I know you have a root account and I can sit there all day and try to brute force it. I can't do that if it's disabled.

[12:54] <jahid> i tried to use "su" but its not accepting my password. i am the only user of this computer. and when i was installing i just setup my account, since root is not active.
[12:54] <ardchoille42> jahid, Use sudo:  sudo command
[12:55] <soundray> jahid: do *not* use su. Use sudo
[12:55] <jahid> soundray, sudo is working. "su" wont work?
[12:55] <JdGordon> jahid: so sudo su then it will put you in root
[12:55] <soundray> jahid: please read the page that ubotu pointed you to
[12:55] <ardchoille42> jahid, You can't su to the root account if you don't have the password.
[12:55] <soundray> jahid: do not follow JdGordon's advice
[12:56] <soundray> JdGordon: sudo su is not recommended. Use sudo -i to get a root shell with a sane environment
[12:56] <jahid> soundray, i tried to open that page, but that is not opening.

[01:07] <ardchoille42> !fixres > DRM3Z
[01:07] <soundray> persen: why don't you write a wrapper script for Eclipse instead of running it via terminal?
[01:07] <DRM3Z> !fixres ?
[01:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fixres ? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:07] <cwillu> fixres for some, miniature american flags for others!
[01:08] <ardchoille42> DRM3Z, ubotu should have sent you a pm
[01:08] <persen> soundray: wrapper script? Can i still launch it via "an icon on my desktop" ?
[01:08] <cwillu> persen: yep, it just means writing the commands you'd normally use in a terminal into a file, and using that file to launch from the desktop
[01:08] <persen> ok
[01:09] <cwillu> persen: there's a magic line to put at the top of the file though, just look for any .sh file, it'll show you what to do
[01:09] <cwillu> and then mark it as executable
[01:09] <sosna> ehmmm it's not simple...
[01:09] <persen> What i want is to run ~/.bashrc first i guess.
[01:10] <ardchoille42> persen, ~/.bashrc gets run when you log in
[01:10] <cwillu> ardchoille42: I thought that was just run whenever you run bash
[01:10] <persen> and also when i launch the terminal from x
[01:10] <ardchoille42> cwillu, Yes, you're right, my bad
[01:11] <cwillu> persen: I think it'll get run automatically if you put #!/usr/bin/bash at the top of the script
[01:11] <persen> ok
[01:11] <cwillu> don't hold me to that though :p
[01:11] <soundray> cwillu: on ubuntu that would be #!/bin/bash
[01:11] <ardchoille42> hash bang slash bin slash bash
[01:11] <devilsadvocate> persen, why not just change the PATH permanently?
[01:12] <valehru> I keep getting the message  Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? when I try and upgrade.  Nothing else is using apt, im positive of that...is there a way to remove these locks without rebooting the system?
[01:13] <cwillu> valehru: running it via sudo?
[01:13] <valehru> cwillu, ya
[01:13] <valehru> just doing sudo apt-get update
[01:14] <persen> devilsadvocate: How do i change the PATH permanently?
[01:14] <cwillu> valehru: and you checked ps aux for apt's and dpkg's?
[01:14] <Enquest> How can I do something like this cat -R * | grep enquest
[01:14] <soundray> Enquest: 'find . -print0 | xargs -0 grep enquest'
[01:15] <valehru> cwillu, hmm there is : root      8489  0.0  1.1  13856 11092 pts/0    T    19:50   0:01 apt-get install
[01:15] <valehru> root      8491  0.0  0.1   4644  1840 pts/0    T    19:51   0:00 /usr/lib/apt/me
[01:15] <cwillu> valehru: shared machine?  or maybe just doing an automatic update?
[01:16] <h3> i'm having problems installing ubuntu 6.10 from alt install cd to an old pII, it stalls after 'detecting hardware to find cd devices', any ideas?
[01:16] <valehru> cwillu, its not a shared machine....I was midway through an install but decided to change the source and pressed ctrl + z....anyway to kill them?
[01:16] <cwillu> h3: ide=nodma might get it working, you'll have to turn on dma for the hard drive after it installs though
[01:17] <sosna> ehhh doesn't work, resolution is 800x600....
[01:17] <sosna> a moze kto po polsku umie?
[01:17] <cwillu> valehru: probably best to fg it, then uninstall it after it finishes
[01:17] <tdn> I am trying to set up encrypted rootfs with LUKS. But I cannot boot. It says that no cryptfs is configured and then it waits for rootfs and I have to reboot...
[01:17] <econobeing> i just formatted some unallocated space on my HD to FAT32, will that automatically mount from now on when i turn on my computer?
[01:17] <valehru> cwillu, fg?
[01:17] <h3> cwillu, ok thanks ill give it a go
[01:17] <cwillu> ctrl+z  = stop, fg = continue in forground
[01:18] <cwillu> h3: hdparm will be the magic incantation to google if it works
[01:18] <econobeing> i guess i should try it out <_< brb
[01:18] <ardchoille42> Tomboy is pretty cool.. first time using it :)
[01:19] <cwillu> ardchoille42: I had this weird thing with it though, didn't handle large texts very well for me;  couldn't dup it after clearing everything out though
[01:19] <ardchoille42> I just watched a video of xgl/compiz. It's pretty nice but it should come with a bottle of dramamine, lol
[01:19] <cwillu> (large being 5-10 paragraphs)
[01:19] <cwillu> hh
[01:19] <devilsadvocate> persen, not sure, but i know that its possible
[01:20] <ardchoille42> cwillu, Really? I didn't think it had a limit.
[01:20] <cwillu> ardchoille42: as I said, I couldn't dup it after;  I must have just hit a corner case on how it handled text or something :p
[01:20] <ardchoille42> Unreproducable bug?
[01:20] <cwillu> ardchoille42: just got really really slow, like it was scanning the whole text each time I added a char
[01:21] <ardchoille42> Well, it's supposed to be for note taking, or so I guess.
[01:21] <cwillu> ardchoille42: I just settled for running a moinmoin wiki on my machine :p
[01:21] <cwillu> nothing like being able to put sketches right on the page
[01:21] <ardchoille42> cwillu, You should be using scribus if you want to write a book, lol
[01:21] <cwillu> ardchoille42: 10 paragraphs != book :p
[01:21] <ardchoille42> moinmoin is cool
[01:22] <cwillu> that's what my stack of paper is for
[01:22] <ardchoille42> hehe
[01:22] <cwillu> sweet, repo's done copying
[01:24] <persen> my god, third time today that ubuntu freezes
[01:24] <joaquin_> Hello
[01:24] <econobeing> hmm, it didn't do it automatically
[01:25] <econobeing> so, how can i add a command to run at startup?
[01:25] <persen> When everything freezes, is there a keyboard-combo i can do to get out of X ?
[01:25] <econobeing> i need to add "sudo mount /dev/hda2 /media/hda2"
[01:25] <joaquin_> wat is the chanel in spanish?
[01:25] <cwillu> econobeing: man fstab
[01:26] <persen> econobeing: add it to fstab
[01:26] <cwillu> !fstab
[01:26] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[01:26] <persen> !glx
[01:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about glx - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:26] <econobeing> ah, thanks
[01:26] <cwillu> persen: what are you looking for?
[01:26] <persen> the new "snappy" desktop stuff
[01:26] <persen> 3d
[01:26] <cwillu> !aiglx
[01:26] <ubotu> AIGLX (Accelerated Indirect GLX) is an open source project founded by the X.Org Foundation and the Fedora Core Linux community to allow accelerated indirect GLX rendering capabilities to X.org and DRI drivers. This allows remote X clients to get fully hardware accelerated rendering over the GLX protocol. Head to #ubuntu-xgl for support.
[01:27] <cwillu> persen: what type of freezes are you hitting?
[01:27] <cwillu> compiz related?
[01:28] <persen> think so, but another question, have other people here experienced "freeze" of the system?
[01:28] <cwillu> ctrl+alt+backspace is the usual x-server killer, ctrl+alt+f1 will also get you to a terminal (ca+f7 to get back)
[01:28] <persen> yep, but none of them worked.
[01:28] <persen> Had to reset the box.
[01:28] <cwillu> persen: hardlock?  does the mouse still move?
[01:28] <cwillu> what vidcard, driver?
[01:29] <persen> cwillu: mouse moves, mp3 plays, but all keyboard combos didnt do anything.
[01:29] <cwillu> persen: do you have another machine handy?
[01:30] <cwillu> persen: first place to look would be in /var/log/xorg.log, dmesg, etc, for anything suspicious
[01:30] <persen> cwillu: i have other machines yes, how so ?
[01:30] <cwillu> how long had the machine been running before it froze?
[01:30] <cwillu> persen: when it freezes, it's handy to know whether you can still ping it, and ssh it
[01:31] <persen> cwillu: Just got this machine yesterday (some old server i think, xp2200+, via kt266, 1gb ram)
[01:31] <cwillu> persen: it isn't an ibm is it?
[01:31] <persen> Maybe its an unstable piece of shit.
[01:31] <persen> cwillu: no, manually built.
[01:32] <cwillu> another possibility is a broken bios;  was it a kinda gradual freeze?  you said the mouse still moved, could you move windows at all for some period of time?
[01:33] <cwillu> I'd check the logs though, and see if you can ssh it (openssh-server I think is the package if you haven't got it already, just be aware that it gives all regular users remote access protected only by their passwords)
[01:34] <y0hm> u can restrict openssh connections thought ....
[01:35] <y0hm> though...*
[01:35] <y0hm> :/
[01:35] <cwillu> y0hm: ya, just not set up by default;  just talking about troubleshooting something else right now anyway
[01:35] <y0hm> k !
[01:36] <cwillu> best I heard was a guy who rigged iptables to drop more and more packets as wrong passwords were entered
[01:37] <Misuzu> what is a good media player for 1080p in linux :3
[01:37] <y0hm> i'm just starting to learn iptables ..pretty powerful ..pretty COMPLEX too...
[01:37] <catalytic> where can i find a decent guide on configuring apache2 on ubuntu?
[01:37] <cwillu> quite
[01:37] <econobeing> does this look good to add to fstab? "/dev/hda2 /media/hda2 Vfat auto,user,exec,rw,sync 0 0"
[01:37] <y0hm> cata there is a specific apache irc channel
[01:37] <cwillu> catalytic: do you know apache config files from anywhere else?
[01:37] <starfighter> salut a tous :)
[01:37] <catalytic> no
[01:38] <gop> !vnc
[01:38] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[01:38] <catalytic> i need to know where they are and how to config them
[01:38] <econobeing> ?
[01:38] <gop> !freenx
[01:38] <ubotu> FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[01:38] <cwillu> catalytic: the apache online docs will probably get you most of it, debian uses a2enmod and a2ensite to config stuff
[01:38] <Bobbix> For a valid WPA2-PSK + AES procedure ???? (Ubuntu Edgy)
[01:38] <catalytic> ok
[01:38] <y0hm> cata tried reading the MAN ?
[01:38] <y0hm> man apache :p
[01:38] <cwillu> y0hm: I found the man pages a bit counterintuitive for apache on debian actually :p
[01:39] <y0hm> yeah sometimes they are
[01:39] <starfighter> j'ai essay de rajouter une image dans le forum, mais elle ne s'affiche pas

[01:40] <daviey> Hi, anybody know how to get ftp-ssl working in nautilus???
[01:41] <cwillu> and I can barely understand french anymore :)
[01:41] <Bobbix> i'm italian and i try to write in english in this channel
[01:41] <cwillu> daviey: sftp:// doesn't do it?
[01:42] <daviey> cwillu, sftp and ftp-ssl are different
[01:42] <cwillu> ah
[01:42] <daviey> cwillu, thanks anyway
[01:42] <y0hm> ah here too :)
[01:42] <cwillu> daviey: I think there's some nautilus handlers that aren't enabled by default, let me check
[01:42] <Bobbix> ok, i go now (bye)
[01:44] <daviey> cwillu, i have installed ftp-ssl which replaces 'ftp' but nautilus doesn't seem to use it.  It works fine from console, just not nautilus
[01:45] <cwillu> daviey: might be out of luck then;  nautilus is using the vfs stuff, which ftp-ssl may not install anything for
[01:45] <daviey> cwillu, :(
[01:45] <cwillu> daviey: although it'll work with mounts fine if you can find a fuse version of it I guess
[01:47] <catalytic> i installed apache2 via synaptic
[01:47] <catalytic> and it has this written underneath
[01:47] <catalytic> This package contains all the standard apache2 modules, including SSL support.
[01:47] <catalytic> However, it does *not* include the server itself; for this you need to
[01:47] <catalytic> install one of the apache2-mpm-* packages; such as worker or prefork.
[01:47] <daviey> cwillu, what a good idea
[01:47] <catalytic> i need something else before i can start configuring the httpd.conf ?
[01:47] <catalytic> I cant find the httpd.conf at the moment
[01:47] <cwillu> catalytic: apache2 depends on apache2-mpm-worker though, so it should be installed
[01:48] <catalytic> i have apache2-mpm-prefork installed
[01:48] <cwillu> catalytic: all the apache config is in /etc/apache2/
[01:48] <cwillu> modules and sites are split out of httpd.conf, just so you know
[01:48] <catalytic> ah, so they are
[01:48] <catalytic> how come locate couldnt find them?
[01:48] <catalytic> or does it only find things within my user space?
[01:48] <cwillu> catalytic: basically just symlinks, a2ensite and a2enmode are the apps to handle it
[01:49] <cwillu> catalytic: locate updates automatically every night
[01:49] <catalytic> ok
[01:49] <catalytic> erm
[01:49] <catalytic> ive never left my box on overnight yet :P
[01:49] <cwillu> if you install something new that you want indexed, sudo updatedb will do an update at that moment
[01:49] <econobeing> awesome, my partition loads when it boots now. thanks a lot whoever it was that linked me to the fstab page
[01:49] <valehru> hey guys, how do I install kernel sources?
[01:49] <catalytic> hah, no wonder i can never find anything
[01:49] <c1|freaky> hi all. what is a good systemstats webtool for ubuntu? HotSanic doesnt work because I always get this error: unsupported graphics format 'GIF'. now I need another tool for system stats. can someone help me? (ubuntu server)
[01:49] <cwillu> I _think_ it's also smart enough to update when you turn it on if you missed an update
[01:50] <y0hm> valehru  :  linux-headers-yourkernel
[01:50] <cwillu> econobeing: np
[01:50] <valehru> y0hm, thx
[01:50] <cwillu> daviey: any luck?
[01:50] <daviey> cwillu, i might be able to mount using curl... i'll report back
[01:51] <cwillu> daviey: are you stuck using ftp over ssl?  nautilus can handle ssh transparently if that's useful at all (sshfs is also handy for that approach)
[01:52] <cwillu> curl's a proxy, right?
[01:52] <daviey> cwillu, it aint my server.  I have ftp-ssl or webdav.  As their certificate is wrong webdav won't work in nautilus (works in konquerer)
[01:52] <cwillu> lol
[01:52] <y0hm> valehru u probably (don't know 100%) need to install "build-essential" as well if you want to build/compile
[01:53] <valehru> y0hm, have it installed
[01:53] <y0hm> with yer kernel sources
[01:53] <neftune> cwillu, curl is a downloader, like wget
[01:53] <y0hm> tk
[01:53] <y0hm> tok
[01:53] <valehru> have to recompile alsa with the new kernel......the headphone jack doesnt work out of the box in edgy
[01:54] <cwillu> there's an ssl wrapper I'm trying to remember, that might work as well (point nautilus to the localhost, and the proxy handles the wrapping, but it's not terribly convenient)
[01:54] <y0hm> have some alsa probs here as well
[01:54] <ocb58> how do i create another user with the same rights as the current one in 5.10?
[01:54] <y0hm> mainly with tv-card
[01:55] <y0hm> anyone know how to get sound out of a hercules smartTV2 card on Edgy ?
[01:55] <cwillu> daviey: might be able to get stunnel or sslwrap to do what you need too
[01:55] <daviey> cwillu, i installed stunnel - but haven't looked at it yet
[01:55] <cwillu> daviey: it's pretty straightforward
[01:56] <sulo> Hi, I've got a very annoying problem: Just got my wireless card working and connected to the LAN. Used dhcp to retreive information. However, I only stay connected for a couple of minutes at a time, after which I'm kicked off the net again and have to reconnect. Can someone shed some light on this, please?
[01:57] <Jowi> sulo, generally speaking, this might be interference from other devices. try changing the channel in the router/AP
[01:59] <aciddrops> helllo
[01:59] <Jowi> sulo, also make sure that the pc is on the same floor as the AP and in line-of-sight from it. that and changing channels is what I would do first of all.
[02:00] <aciddrops> greetings

[02:03] <plastik> what network services are enabled by default after an install ? (ubuntu desktop, or whatever)
[02:03] <jahid> how can i search for versions before installing suing APT?
[02:04] <Jowi> plastik, none
[02:04] <cwillu> jahid: synaptic -> properties on the package will tell you stuff
[02:05] <thomass> Hello. I have installed steam with wine, but I can`t see the text. Which fonts do I have to install?
[02:05] <jahid> cwillu, i didnt you? can you clear me little more?
[02:05] <Jowi> plastik, you'll have to install those services yourself (webserver, ftp, ssh, samba etc etc) :)
[02:06] <cwillu> if you install packages via synaptic (administration menu), it'll tell you what version is there;  you can pick a particular one (if available) via the force menu item
[02:06] <andriijas> why do people install ubuntu to play counter-strike? lol.
[02:06] <mav> i am a newbie ..  i have to generate graphs from a txt file . from the terminal window. what are the options available to be ??
[02:07] <mav> thanks in advance !
[02:07] <andriijas> mav: thats not much of a ubuntu related question, sorry to say but i guess you get better answers by google or some forum
[02:07] <ardchoille42> andriijas, hahaha
[02:07] <andriijas> ardchoille42: what? :b
[02:07] <thomass> andriijas, I just want to test it, because I am going to change to ubuntu, and I need Counter-Strike :P
[02:07] <ardchoille42> andriijas> why do people install ubuntu to play counter-strike? lol.

[02:09] <cwillu> andriijas: might want to look at a demo of crossover;  if you can get counterstrike working there, you can probably get it working in vanilla wine as well, just with more effort
[02:09] <sulo> Jowi: thing is, this router is not in my apartment, but in my neighbour's
[02:09] <sulo> Jowi: so how do I know what channel to change to?
[02:09] <Jowi> sulo, there's no specific channel. your neighbour will have to try different ones. depends on your surroundings.
[02:10] <andriijas> cwillu: im no gamer. im just fine with my webdevelopment
[02:11] <Jowi> sulo, is your appartments underneath one another or across?
[02:12] <sulo> Jowi, across
[02:12] <Jowi> sulo, so you can basicly see his window?
[02:12] <sulo> Jowi, we live on the same staircase
[02:12] <sulo> Jowi, i.e. across the hall
[02:13] <Jowi> sulo, ah, door to door. I see. better try different channels then.
[02:13] <Mathew> Hello.
[02:13] <sulo> Jowi, okay. thanks
[02:13] <Mathew> I wonder if someone would care to help me solve a simple problem.
[02:13] <Mathew> dealing with Ubuntu startup behavior.
[02:13] <sulo> Mathew, just ask
[02:13] <Mathew> ok.. I have a laptop
[02:14] <Mathew> when at home I run a single display and beryl
[02:14] <sulo> What's the name of the text-based rpg where you at some point (early in the game) end up in a room with a VAX, which you have to log on to ?
[02:14] <Mathew> when at work I run with a dock and metacity
[02:15] <Mathew> I would like to write a startup script that tells if I'm docked or not and replaces the appropriate xorg file and disables/enables beryl-manager when I log in.
[02:15] <Mathew> 2 problems with this... I have no idea how to tell if I'm docked or not to make an action in this script
[02:16] <Mathew> and I don't know where my session startup program list is kept so it can be edited to disable/enable beryl
[02:16] <sulo> Mathew, ~/.Xsession?
[02:17] <h3> cwillu, hey thanks 'ide=nodma' got ubuntu installed for me, how do i set dma on now?
[02:17] <Mathew> thats prob it sulo
[02:17] <soundray> Mathew: if you run 'tail -f /var/log/syslog' while you dock, you will see whether any events are logged/devices created in relation to the docking

[02:34] <ice> modem ADLS
[02:34] <AngryElf_> the ubuntu wiki on beryl doesn't mention anything about installing AIGLX (i thought it used to).  It only mentions enabling it in xorg.conf....is this somethign new?

[02:34] <y0hm> funchal check apt-cdrom
[02:34] <nilvio> when i try put wine cfg i get message Segmentation fault (core dumped)

[02:34] <AngryElf_> andriijas: alright then, I did everything the wiki says and no fun burning windows :/
[02:34] <y0hm> from Xorg 7.1 to be precise AIGLX is included by default
[02:35] <Data_> nilvio, have you tried in root user?
[02:35] <IdleOne> Dh3Y0: ubuntu will format that drive/partiton so you will lose those files but I believe that with the Ubuntu CD ( live cd ) you can access that drive and try to recover the files
[02:35] <Jowi> AngryElf, in Edgy it is included. In Dapper you need to install it
[02:35] <nilvio> Data_ yest
[02:35] <ice> ppoe

[02:51] <cwillu> xgl, aiglx is just the xserver, beryl and compiz will generally run on either
[02:52] <Jowi> AngryElf, for me it was easiest with AIGLX since it is included by default in edgy.

[03:03] <cwillu> DRM3Z: proprietary driver or the opensource?
[03:03] <Data_> ooboontoo

[03:04] <DRM3Z> mean*
[03:04] <Data_> cwilly I use vesa driver for my ati but I don't need 3D

[03:08] <cwillu> !backports
[03:08] <ubotu> If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports

[03:11] <Jowi> goldeagle, run gnome-font-properties and see if there are values missing there
[03:11] <Jowi> goldeagle, maybe a font you were using is not there any more
[03:11] <sorush20> cwillu: I have the backports
[03:11] <sorush20> deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[03:11] <sorush20> its not there.
[03:12] <goldeagle> Jowi: sans, sans, sans, sans bold, monospace, best forms ... this is selected
[03:12] <Math^> hello, I've got some script, where to put it/make it active?
[03:12] <goldeagle> Jowi: I migrate for edgy from dapper
[03:13] <Ulixes> hi
[03:13] <soundray> Math^: chmod 755 to make it executable. Copy it to /usr/local/bin to put it on the path
[03:13] <Ulixes> can anyone tell me what is the command to stop X?
[03:13] <Math^> soundray: ok
[03:13] <ForgeAus> to stop X?
[03:13] <ForgeAus> good question!
[03:14] <Ulixes> yes, like startx
[03:14] <Ulixes> for start
[03:14] <ForgeAus> not sure why anyone would want to but still
[03:14] <Ulixes> is it just stopx?
[03:14] <Math^> soundray: not something like a+x?
[03:14] <Ulixes> i'm a newbee :|
[03:14] <soundray> Math^: man chmod
[03:14] <biotrox> what do you intend to do with stopping X..?
[03:14] <soundray> Ulixes: Ctrl-Alt-Backspace
[03:14] <biotrox> you just TUI or with GUI
[03:15] <biotrox> Ctrl-Alt-Backspace just to restart the GDM not for restarting X
[03:15] <Math^> soundray: it does not work
[03:15] <daftvader> hi, can anyone help me get usplash to work?
[03:15] <soundray> Math^: what, man chmod?
[03:15] <daftvader> I just upgrade to edgy and usplash does not work
[03:15] <daftvader> just a blank black start up screen
[03:16] <Data_> Ulixes to stop X must be in root in a shell and type: gdm stop
[03:16] <Jowi> goldeagle, was the upgrade successful? maybe you can try to delete .gtk* .gnome* and .gconf* in your homedir and try to login again. that will reset gnome to its defaults
[03:16] <Math^> soundray: Ive copied the file in to my /usr/local/bin dir
[03:16] <Math^> and I've chmod it
[03:16] <goldeagle> Jowi: I dont deleted nothing ... I have problems in two packages ... one moment
[03:17] <soundray> Math^: enter 'which file' (substituting file with the name of your script)
[03:17] <goldeagle> Jowi: gnome-app-install ubuntu-desktop , impossible install this packages
[03:18] <Jowi> goldeagle, ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage for a full ubuntu gnome install. why does it fial?
[03:18] <Rprp>   ChanServ Duiv`eerrgus`eufzeuw JGotti Rprp
[03:18] <Math^> soundray: ha?
[03:18] <cwillu> goldeagle: have you used automatix or easyubuntu?
[03:19] <goldeagle> Jowi: I go try install and send error .. one moment
[03:19] <biotrox> is there any chick using ubuntu for their computer..
[03:19] <goldeagle> cwillu: I dont use this .... I use dst-upgrade for migration only
[03:19] <Jowi> goldeagle, ubuntu-desktop is more than one package. its more like 50-100 of them that is installed if you select it.
[03:19] <Jowi> goldeagle, you need it.
[03:19] <gnomefreak> biotrox: please join #ubuntu-offtopic for general chatter
[03:20] <goldeagle> Jowi: yes .. one moment friend
[03:20] <biotrox> Ooo OK
[03:20] <soundray> Math^: how are you getting on?
[03:20] <sorush20> not all the packages in fiesty are in backports for edgy
[03:24] <goldeagle> Jowi: http://sial.org/pbot/22729
[03:25] <goldeagle> Jowi: I'm installing ... one moment
[03:25] <rukuartic> Hi there. I've been having problems with Apache2 not logging things propperly. Does anyone know anything about this?
[03:26] <webben> Installing emacs currently fails for me: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/3451/
[03:26] <webben> can anyone suggest how I could fix that?
[03:27] <zyth> webben, use vi.
[03:27] <webben> zyth, Not helpful. ;)
[03:27] <zyth> heheh ;)
[03:28] <zyth> you need this file: cp: cannot stat `/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/dictionaries-common/debian-ispell.el'
[03:28] <Jowi> goldeagle, maybe also reinstall xorg "sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg" also see if these are up to date "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-standard"
[03:28] <zyth> install ispell.
[03:28] <zyth> mebbe
[03:28] <soundray> webben: try 'sudo dpkg --configure -a'
[03:28] <Jowi> goldeagle, but I hope ubuntu-desktop is enough
[03:28] <zyth> webben, and for god's sake, run apt-get autoremove ;)
[03:29] <webben> zyth, i dunno ... I'm sure I use some of that stuff. So I don't trust it.
[03:29] <webben> soundray, thanks that gives me the same error
[03:29] <rukuartic> zyth: Yeah, what if we *want* to keep that stuff, how do we get rid of the message?
[03:29] <zyth> rukuartic, I'm unsure, sorry
[03:30] <Pici> try apt-get -f install
[03:30] <goldeagle> Jowi: error now ...http://sial.org/pbot/22730
[03:31] <soundray> webben: can you install dictionaries-common ?
[03:32] <soundray> webben: (it provides /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/dictionaries-common/debian-ispell.el)
[03:32] <webben> ah ha
[03:32] <webben> that sounds promising
[03:33] <goldeagle> Jowi: I wa with error, apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop gnome-app-install ... without error again
[03:34] <Jowi> goldeagle, dependency errors. hmmm... have you tried to run "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" before trying to install ubuntu-desktop again...

[03:35] <Jowi> goldeagle, at least not all is lost :)
[03:36] <goldeagle> Jowi: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade , zero packages
[03:36] <metaperl> I tried to install Ubunu 6.10. I get a disk error when booting from hard drive. is there some option to verify the disk initialization?
[03:36] <Jowi> goldeagle, do you have any third party repos in /etc/apt/sources.list?
[03:37] <soundray> metaperl: you should try the instructions for grub failure after Windows install:
[03:37] <soundray> !grub | metaperl
[03:37] <ubotu> metaperl: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:37] <goldeagle> Jowi: http://sial.org/pbot/22732, apt-get dist-upgrade and apt-get update

[03:39] <tuxub> hi, how can I compress a multiple disk zip file in ubuntu?
[03:39] <tonyyarusso> tuxub: what do you mean by multiple disk?
[03:40] <Jedrick> is there a way to know the ip of my chatmate in gaim?
[03:40] <tonyyarusso> Jedrick: There _might_ be a plugin for that.
[03:40] <Jowi> goldeagle, maybe try to use an archive repo in your country in sources.list... that's the best bet I have atm.
[03:40] <frojnd> hello
[03:40] <soundray> tuxub: zipsplit -h
[03:41] <tuxub> I need to split some files to send by email. the max size of each file must not exceed 5M
[03:41] <Jedrick> tonyyarusso: what plugin is that?
[03:41] <tuxub> and must be openable by someone using windows on the other end
[03:41] <Pici> Jedrick : if you're using aim, theres no way of knowing unless you have a direct connection setup
[03:41] <frojnd> does anyone know for any kind of prog that manage subtititles (.srt, .sub...) FPS...
[03:41] <Jedrick> Pici:  what you mean?
[03:41] <goldeagle> Jowi: ok ... I go change my repository for BR
[03:42] <Gamentine> hello all,
[03:42] <remsss> hello everyone
[03:42] <soundray> tuxub: zipsplit -h
[03:42] <ShankarGanesh> hello all
[03:42] <Pici> Jedrick : I mean that using AOL's AIM system means that you and your friend connect to aol's server and are actually chatting through that.  If you setup one of those direct connections (usually for doing file transfers, I dont remember the exact name of it) you should be able to do a netstat to find their IP.
[03:43] <__Jenny> hello
[03:43] <Dh3Y0> 100% downloaded gonna go burn
[03:43] <ShankarGanesh> can i ask a question here

[03:43] <ShankarGanesh> i use gaim and i wanna store irc chat history
[03:43] <tuxub> sondray, the -n size is in bytes?
[03:43] <Pici> Jedrick : if you are looking for a more speicific gaim answer, you might try  looking in the #gaim channel
[03:43] <Jedrick> Pici:  im using gaim as yahoo messenger
[03:43] <prower> Hello :> For some reason, whenever I start up GAIM, the tray icon shows me as away even though I'm set as available....is there some setting that I have to change?
[03:43] <ShankarGanesh> how do i do that
[03:43] <Jowi> __Jenny, /usr/src
[03:43] <ShankarGanesh> i use gaim and i want my irc chats to be stored
[03:43] <__Jenny> Jowi, no there is nothin
[03:44] <Pici> Jedrick : I'm not familiar with yahoo messenger, I'd try asking in #gaim
[03:44] <ShankarGanesh> help pls :)
[03:44] <Jowi> __Jenny, then you need to install it.
[03:44] <goldeagle> Jowi: http://sial.org/pbot/22734 , apt-get update
[03:44] <Jedrick> ok
[03:44] <soundray> tuxub: yes
[03:44] <ignacio> hi
[03:44] <__Jenny> Jowi, how?
[03:44] <tuxub> amaia@maia:~$ zipsplit -n 500000 xpto.zip
[03:44] <tuxub> zipsplit error: Entry too big to split, read, or write (relatorio_final_0506.pdf)
[03:44] <ignacio> can someone help me with a usb video capture card?
[03:44] <tuxub> soundray, can u help me? what am I doing wrong?
[03:45] <__Jenny> i have this kernel running: <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:45] <ShankarGanesh> how do i store irc chat history in gaim?
[03:45] <__Jenny> Jowi, i have this kernel running: <IP_ADDRESS>
[03:45] <tonyyarusso> Jedrick: All right, I don't have a direct answer, but it at least looks like it must have access to that information somehow, http://mailman.jabber.org/pipermail/jdev/2004-November/019625.html
[03:45] <goldeagle> Jowi: http://sial.org/pbot/22735 sources.list new , my country
[03:46] <Jowi> __Jenny, you downloaded and compiled that one yourself?
[03:46] <__Jenny> no
[03:46] <__Jenny> its a root server from my hoster
[03:46] <Jowi> goldeagle, "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[03:46] <__Jenny> with their kernel
[03:47] <adamlaptop> hi all
[03:47] <__Jenny> Jowi, do i need some header files?
[03:47] <goldeagle> http://sial.org/pbot/22736, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-standard
[03:47] <__Jenny> Jowi, or how can i fix this problem?
[03:47] <adamlaptop> how would i go about installing LAMP on my local machine as a testing environment?
[03:47] <Jowi> __Jenny, so they should know where to get the kernel source for you. they might have used specific patches and stuff. I can't really recommend how to get it for you.
[03:47] <soundray> tuxub: I haven't tried this, but I think you need to do the zipping and splitting in one. Ie. if your data is in folder/, do 'zipsplit -n 500000 archivename.zip folder/'
[03:48] <soundray> tuxub: use -t to test
[03:48] <__Jenny> Jowi,  so the kernel source isnt on the server in a dir?
[03:48] <__Jenny> Jowi, cant i search for it?
[03:49] <Jowi> __Jenny, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[03:49] <nocturn> Hi all
[03:49] <soundray> tuxub: sorry, I take it all back
[03:49] <ShankarGanesh> gud nite everybody
[03:49] <goldeagle> Jowi: http://sial.org/pbot/22737 , "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[03:49] <nocturn> I'm looking for a program to make backups of a homedirectory to CD
[03:49] <nocturn> something easy
[03:49] <goldeagle> Jowi: error again ... :|
[03:49] <nocturn> Hubackup is nice, but does not allow custom excludes
[03:49] <adamlaptop> how would i go about installing LAMP on my local machine as a testing environment?
[03:49] <ardchoille42> nocturn, I use tar in a script for that. Want me to pastebin it?
[03:50] <Jowi> goldeagle, yeah, and the same one as well. I have no idea what to think of that.
[03:50] <soundray> tuxub: that error you're getting is because some files in your archive are too big -- they would be split across several files, which zip does not support.
[03:50] <nocturn> ardchoille42: Thanks, but I'm looking for something with a GUI, it's not for me
[03:50] <nocturn> It's for an ex-windows user with basic computer knowledge, so the easier the better
[03:51] <ardchoille42> nocturn, Ok, but with a GUI, you need to run it.. a shell script can be put into a crontab and the system will run it without you having to do it. Just a thought.
[03:51] <steeg> is there a way to force apt-get to remove a package? i am having some problems trying to reinstall mldonkey.. it worked fine for a while, but stopped working after i tampered with the config, and i tought i'd do a reinstall to get it back up
[03:51] <ardchoille42> nocturn, Ah, ok.
[03:51] <soundray> tuxub: I've got another solution. Are you still there?
[03:51] <tuxub> yes, please
[03:52] <goldeagle> Jowi: http://sial.org/pbot/22738 , Summary: sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop gnome-app-install AND sudo apt-get upgrade
[03:52] <Jowi> goldeagle, ah, look what i stumbled accross https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-app-install/+bug/67067
[03:52] <nocturn> window 3
[03:52] <goldeagle> Jowi: I'm seeing this url ...
[03:53] <Jowi> goldeagle, so it seems to be a python problem.
[03:54] <soundray> tuxub: do a 'split -b 500000 xpto.zip xpto-archive'
[03:54] <goldeagle> Jowi: python problem, is possible ... I have old and new versions
[03:54] <tuxub> soundray, but will I be able to open that files in windows with winzip?
[03:54] <soundray> tuxub: on Windows, you can recombine the resulting xpto-archive files with 'copy /b xpto-archive.* xpto.zip'
[03:55] <goldeagle> Jowi: how to do python problem ?
[03:55] <tuxub> soundray, that wont work... the destination is a complete non techie computer user
[03:55] <tuxub> explaining her how to do a copy /b is the same for her has explaining to you how to mount an atomic bomb :P
[03:56] <Jowi> goldeagle, I don't know.
[03:56] <soundray> tuxub: oh, I wouldn't find that too difficult
[03:56] <zyth> tuxub, make a batch file for her?
[03:56] <zyth> lol
[03:57] <tuxub> zyth, isn't there a way to make a winzip like file in ubuntu?
[03:57] <goldeagle> Jowi: thx friend ... I think pythn problem .. I go to talk with python comunity
[03:57] <tuxub> just like thjat
[03:57] <tuxub> ?
[03:57] <zyth> tuxub, yeah, use winzip+wine
[03:57] <zyth> lol

[04:01] <soundray> tuxub: you could create a multi-volume archive with tar. WinZip can unpack those.
[04:02] <tuxub> soundray, thats a better way
[04:02] <Pici> Its common enough that we need a bot response to it ;)
[04:03] <Phurtiv3Ph0x> !enter Phurtiv3Ph0x
[04:03] <svfusion> anyone use squid?
[04:03] <Phurtiv3Ph0x> i need one of those

[04:05] <|Shadow|> lol its starting to get frustrateing, i spent 7 hours on it yesterday
[04:05] <dramamine> Package mysql is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package mysql has no installation candidate

[04:05] <yigido> hello
[04:06] <yigido> i have a problem installing ubuntu on my laptop
[04:06] <yigido> any one can offer help?
[04:06] <riotkittie> yigido: and your problem is?
[04:06] <Jowi> tuxub, "zipsplit" is probably what you are looking for.
[04:06] <yigido> after i say start or install ubuntu, for a few milliseconds something appears on the screen saying
[04:06] <tuxub> Jowi, can you show me an example of how to do it? I tried but didn't manage to do it
[04:06] <yigido> can not allocate region 7 bridge something
[04:06] <yigido> then the bar comes up and thats it
[04:06] <yigido> no further progress
[04:07] <yigido> i have a fujitsu siemens M1437G laptop
[04:07] <riotkittie> ooh i am being run over by  atonka dump truck

[04:07] <yigido> :(
[04:07] <dramamine> anyone?
[04:08] <pumpkinhead> question: if i need to reset my modem during the session, how do i reset the connection to ubuntu?
[04:08] <yigido> anyone has any idea about it?
[04:08] <Jowi> tuxub, never tried. but I would guess first create a zip file with "zip" and the "zipsplit -n 512000 myfile.zip"
[04:09] <CanadianMan_> i'm having trouble getting my tv-out to display anything, i'm using dvi-component

[04:10] <ruzgar> how can i upgrade my ubuntu to upper version ?
[04:10] <pumpkinhead> damageDOne are you sure it's blank and not a faulty diskk

[04:11] <pumpkinhead> damage may i ask what brand of dvdr?
[04:11] <soundray> damageDOne: this is probably the difference between Gigabytes and "Gibibytes"
[04:12] <damageDOne> soundray: huh?
[04:12] <bulmer> pumpkinhead: try  /etc/init.d/networking restart
[04:12] <CanadianMan_> pumpkinhead, are you able to go under Network under system -> admin and deactivate/activate
[04:13] <CanadianMan_> nvm
[04:13] <pumpkinhead> thank you bulmer and Canadian
[04:13] <damageDOne> pumpkinhead: DVD brand is imation. The writer is a from an ASUS lapotp
[04:13] <ConstyXIV> and there was much rejoicing, as I found out how to use usb mass storage players in banshee
[04:13] <soundray> damageDOne: a DVD has<PHONE_NUMBER> bytes. Manufacturers call this 4.7GB, although in reality it's only 4.48 GB (if you consider a Gigabyte to be 1024*1024*1024 bytes)
[04:14] <damageDOne> Okay so if I drop a few files off and try again I should be alright.
[04:14] <andriijas> they apply same wierd math to harddrives
[04:15] <Dh3Y0> allright cd burnt now bootinh
[04:15] <Dh3Y0> wish me luck
[04:15] <soundray> damageDOne: yes, I think so
[04:15] <ConstyXIV> next question: can you keep nautilus from popping up every time i insert my music player or thumb drive?
[04:15] <Dh3Y0> my first linuxs installation
[04:15] <Dh3Y0> XP
[04:15] <damageDOne> soundray: I just tried and got this "Please replace the disc in the drive with a supported disc with at least 4.3 GiB free.  The following disc types are supported:
[04:15] <damageDOne> DVD+R DL"
[04:15] <svfusion> I get this error when I start squid FATAL: Failed to make swap directory /var/squid/cache/00: (13) Permission denied

[04:17] <ConstyXIV> gop: it means you disconnect, but it keeps running
[04:17] <gop> is freenx the rdp for linux or unix
[04:17] <ykrana> but it like rdp in it..
[04:17] <ConstyXIV> gop: like it, but better
[04:17] <ykrana> gop: it means i'm still on 9v input
[04:17] <gop> ConstyXIV,  but don't vnc do that already

[04:19] <soundray> Jowi: it won't work if any of the uncompressed files exceed the limit you set with -n
[04:19] <ykrana>  then: zipsplit -n 20000000 myfile.zip  have i only want him or i'll try but i'll just leave no matter if i need you to ignore list.
[04:19] <gili> i neeed some help regarding Mplayer.....when i play different vids i get a diagonal split of the screen....why?

[04:19] <gop> con-man,  the channel will still be thier
[04:19] <ykrana> why would say, for the channel is crap
[04:19] <Jowi> tuxub, -n [number]  must be bigger than the biggest file in the zip.
[04:19] <ykrana> condensed  water  water must be only
[04:19] <ZloDeY> ku-ku
[04:19] <Spinnaker> ConstyXIV: Which one you use?
[04:19] <ykrana> you all use?
[04:19] <Jowi> soundray, true
[04:20] <ConstyXIV> Spinnaker: gnome tends to be more unified and easier to use, while kde is more flexible and powerful
[04:20] <ykrana> constyxiv: which one is better: gnome or kde?
[04:20] <Rippance> hi
[04:20] <ykrana> hi
[04:20] <dm_> ConstyXIV i tend to disagree :P

[04:21] <omkar86> I installed ubuntu on second primary partition /dev/hda3, Can i make this partition logical without loosing data?
[04:21] <dm_> soundray maybe u can anser this. I want to play an MP3 while playing World of warcraft, but no sound comes from anything but WOW? , is there anyway to fis this?

[04:21] <gili> i neeed some help regarding Mplayer.....when i play different vids i get a diagonal split of the screen....why?
[04:21] <cefx-> Hello!
[04:22] <ConstyXIV> i use kde on my desktop, but gnome on my laptop because a) less powerful hardware, and b) work just gets done in gnome
[04:22] <cefx-> Anyone know the requirements to becoming an ubuntu mirror?
[04:22] <Astaroth> I basically need help on how to use xmodmap and imwheel
[04:22] <hitammanis> Have anyone got ubuntu to work on a USB Flash Drive yet?
[04:22] <soundray> dm_: do you play WoW through wine or something like that?

[04:22] <dm_> soundray aye
[04:22] <rippz> Hi, i'm going to install Ubuntu server instead of Windows 2003 on my home server. Can Ubuntu convert NTFS to linux file system for me?
[04:23] <ConstyXIV> rippz: not to my knowledge
[04:23] <ForgeAus> there is a convertfs tool
[04:23] <rippz> Is it reliable?
[04:23] <ForgeAus> but not sure if NTFS is one of the filesystems it uses
[04:23] <ConstyXIV> rippz: i say just back up and dump back
[04:23] <ForgeAus> you might need to copy/paste to a temporary location or backup and restore?
[04:23] <omkar86> hi I installed ubuntu on second primary partition /dev/hda3, Can i make this partition logical without loosing data?
[04:23] <soundray> dm_: it must be hogging the sound. Either run a music player within the same wine session, or configure wine to use alsa instead of OSS emulation. Not that I know how to do that...
[04:24] <gop> ConstyXIV,  and the nx server runs only on unix platform or does it also run on windows
[04:24] <pumpkinhead> soundray i have that problem with some apps but not others
[04:24] <dm_> soundray ill try thank you
[04:24] <rippz> alright I'd have to sort it out then since I lack hard drive capacity
[04:24] <k010> where do i find the log for all the crashed apps?
[04:24] <pumpkinhead> or dm_i mean
[04:24] <Astaroth> Trying to make horizontal scroll work on my Logitech Cordless Click mouse. Anyone willing to help?
[04:24] <soundray> pumpkinhead: probably each one that uses the old OSS instead of ALSA as the output backend
[04:24] <gop> if I log in to my own desktop locally
[04:24] <gop> /usr/NX/bin/nxclient &
[04:24] <gop> via this
[04:25] <ForgeAus> hmm I have an interesting question, whats stopping ntldr from using ext2fs driver to boot up from?...  (ie could one theoretically have a WindowsXP ext3 partition?
[04:25] <gop> I will get loop back effects
[04:25] <gili> bueno quien me puede decir como eliminar este diagonal que produce mplayer?

[04:25] <gop> any here know how can I check if my tv tuner card is supported
[04:26] <gili> gop: Mplayer is giving me a diagonal screen split how do i elimar that
[04:26] <hitammanis> Every time I had tried it, after changing and or installing something new I get message saying  /var/log/lastlog locked/write after fsck. What do I do? Please help :) :)
[04:26] <dm_> soundray i think i got it, but its fuzzy
[04:26] <rolf> how can i delete the pppoe config created by pppoeconf as well as the cached data within pppoeconf?
[04:26] <pumpkinhead> gili no se mucho de myplayer. puede ud trater los help files por el myplayer site?
[04:26] <gop> elimate that
[04:26] <daubs> Hey all, a quick question. On a lot of screenshots of GNOME I've seen around, a lot of them have like an information bar on the right hand side. What program supplies this?
[04:26] <Pici> !es
[04:26] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[04:26] <gop> GigaClon,  elimar = elimate
[04:26] <gili> sorry eliminate that
[04:26] <soundray> ForgeAus: I think that driver is like what you would call a module in Linux. So if there was a mechanism like initramfs to load drivers required for booting, it would be possible. But I doubt that Windows would allow that kind of fiddling
[04:26] <citybird> can anyone tell me where i can find a list of packages available for ubuntu? i am looking for libmail-spf-query-perl which is suggested in an install script that i am trying to use.

[04:27] <Pici> citybird : packages.ubuntu.com

[04:33] <phurtiv3ph0x> direct rendering: Yes
[04:33] <ConstyXIV> vim takes a looooong time to learn, but you will never want to go back
[04:34] <_Andrew> :D
[04:34] <phurtiv3ph0x> thats not openGL is it?
[04:34] <gop> is freenx secure ConstyXIV  alll I have to do is have port 22 open

[04:34] <sigger> soundray: actually, all  that did was tell me to use cdrecord, which tells me it doesn't support kernel > 2.4
[04:34] <gop> but I don't have patients for commands
[04:34] <ForgeAus> its not very user friendly agreed
[04:34] <UglyBetty> hello
[04:34] <ForgeAus> but once you learn it you can do magic... it seems
[04:34] <ForgeAus> (not that I've learnt it)
[04:34] <ConstyXIV> vim takes patience
[04:34] <osfameron> yup
[04:34] <Guychi> Hi! How can I change GRUB to load my WinXP by default?

[04:36] <ForgeAus> a 1 gig stick would store it ook
[04:36] <ForgeAus> if the live cd is only 600 or so meg
[04:36] <ConstyXIV> gop: sudo apt-get install eclipse-cdt
[04:36] <UglyBetty> so a 16 gig stick will be fine
[04:37] <ForgeAus> 16 gig stick? never heard of them
[04:37] <nkbreau> can someone help me get twinview working with my laptop... it only seems to want to use the external monitor... i made changes to the xorg.conf as described in some forum posts but no success...

[04:37] <nkbreau> does anything have to be done other than changes to the xorg.conf file for twinview ?
[04:38] <ForgeAus> um Guychi not sure.. I'd have to check it out myself too
[04:38] <gop> hitammanis,  thier is gentoo usb install which seem to be the best
[04:38] <ForgeAus> but there should be a /boot directory
[04:38] <ForgeAus> and under that a /grub directory
[04:38] <ForgeAus> inside that shoudl be a file called menu.lst
[04:38] <_Andrew> Guychi: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:38] <ForgeAus> with your boot order, etc...
[04:38] <gop> FordPrefect,  what distro you used on a stick
[04:38] <hitammanis> gop: do you have a link
[04:38] <Guychi> can I change the GRUB default from the GRUB command line?
[04:38] <andre> hello
[04:38] <gop> the bad part of linux on a distro
[04:38] <ForgeAus> in there somewhere will be an option to select the default OS

[04:42] <|Shadow|> what can i do ?
[04:43] <hibbie> change the permissoins, shadow
[04:43] <ForgeAus> all you have to do is build a system on it and copy a live cd over possibly?
[04:43] <|Shadow|> how?
[04:43] <hibbie> or run it as sudo?

[04:43] <alan_> mais ele est em portugues

[04:43] <ForgeAus> Id' be more interested in making a network boot for it lol
[04:43] <gop> hin http://www.flashlinux.org.uk/
[04:44] <|Shadow|> ok
[04:44] <hitammanis> Pici: I followed the instruction exactly and still get a lastlog error, I will try again
[04:44] <greysun> hitammanis: slax or something might be more fun on usb
[04:44] <gop> ForgeAus,  every try that
[04:44] <UglyBetty> so if i install it on a usb stick i can take it to a freinds house and plug it in to his pc and use ubuntu
[04:44] <gop> greygoo,  I used slax on usb
[04:44] <gop> it sucks
[04:44] <gop> UglyBetty,  yea
[04:44] <gop> but the ubuntu hack
[04:44] <hibbie> (if anyone's got a moment, I wouldn't mind a hand on some network/ADSL problems)
[04:44] <gop> is not so great yet
[04:44] <citybird> man i had almost forgotten what dependency hell was like.
[04:44] <hitammanis> greysun: I tried it, but I like ubuntu
[04:44] <gop> UglyBetty,  use this one http://www.flashlinux.org.uk/
[04:44] <ForgeAus> yeah slackware isn't all that good, at least I don't find it all that good
[04:44] <_bman|> would WEP by considered hexadecimal or ASCII on ubuntu 6.10?
[04:44] <ConstyXIV> i keep a slax minicd in my jacket pocket
[04:44] <gop> most work like live cd
[04:44] <gop> say if you
[04:45] <gop> say if you installed an application or add a user
[04:45] <gop> when you reboot the usb
[04:45] <UglyBetty> thanks
[04:45] <gop> it reset
[04:45] <_bman|> would WEP key be considered hexadecimal or ASCII on ubuntu 6.10?
[04:45] <gop> it won't save nothing
[04:45] <gop> it works like a live cd
[04:45] <gop> it sucks
[04:45] <ConstyXIV> _bman|: does your wep key have anything other than numbers and a-f?
[04:45] <|Shadow|> the installer runs now and it says "./ati-installer.sh: 156: Syntax error: Bad substitution"
[04:45] <gop> but http://www.flashlinux.org.uk/ works like a linux distro
[04:45] <_bman|> no.
[04:45] <Pici> _bman| : Probably hex
[04:45] <_bman|> just numbers.
[04:45] <_bman|> thank you.
[04:45] <citybird> can anyone help??  The following packages have unmet dependencies:  zlib1g-dev: Depends: zlib1g (= 1:1.2.3-6ubuntu4) but 1:1.2.3-13ubuntu2 is to be installed E: Broken packages...

[04:45] <pumpkinhead> alan_ busco mi IM
[04:45] <_bman|> if it's recieving & trnasfering packets..
[04:46] <gop> in that when you install flash linux it tells you need a ext3 partion where it saves yoru settings and apps
[04:46] <_bman|> why can't I get FF to work?
[04:46] <Guychi> Is there any way to recover my password if I forgot it?
[04:46] <_bman|> er, why wouldn't I?*
[04:46] <ConstyXIV> _bman|: have you tried network-manager?
[04:46] <ForgeAus> if you install flash linux to a drive but you don't have to
[04:46] <mick666> www.freepenguin.altervista.org/inden.html
[04:46] <_bman|> yes.
[04:46] <ConstyXIV> oh
[04:46] <ForgeAus> you can just use it for a temporary OS or a recovery OS
[04:46] <chris_shafto> Anyway to get a clean install of ubuntu without using the live CS?
[04:46] <UglyBetty> oh and by the way would ubuntu recognise my ntfs hard drive
[04:46] <chris_shafto> CD?*
[04:46] <hitammanis> brb
[04:47] <ForgeAus> also a usbstick is writeable
[04:47] <ConstyXIV> UglyBetty: AS READ ONLY
[04:47] <emo> -bman|:hexadecimal
[04:47] <ConstyXIV> oops
[04:47] <SushiP> Oooo flash linux looks nice *puts on ipod*
[04:47] <_bman|> ubuntu is great so far. :)
[04:47] <ForgeAus> an ubuntu liveCD isn't
[04:47] <ConstyXIV> sorry for caps
[04:47] <zack> i installed flash player 9 for firefox but some websites still tell me i need flash player 8 to play the videos
[04:47] <_bman|> but I can't get the wireless to work.
[04:47] <zack> should i remove flashplayer 7
[04:47] <UglyBetty> does that mean i could watch movies from that drive
[04:47] <ConstyXIV> _bman|: are you running the latest updates?
[04:48] <ardeni> irc.freenode.net
[04:48] <Meekus> a question if I may... I set up ubuntu to authenticate against MS Active Direcoty using Winbind, PAM, and krb5.  Works great.  Now I wish to mount a network drive for users to use as their home.  That network drive is Solaris, running both NFS and Samba.  Utlimately, I want users to only enter in their user/pass one time.  Any thoughts?  would smbmount be a good way to go?
[04:48] <yellowdart> zack, i have flash 9 working and never installed 7
[04:48] <gop> but ConstyXIV  am I wrong, but I read that usb flash has X number of writes it can do
[04:48] <gop> then it stops
[04:48] <emo> -bman|:open your network just for a while I mean remove the password to and try to connect I'd the same problem couple of days ago.
[04:48] <|Shadow|> kinda a long shot, but could anyone connect to my VNC and help me set up dual monitors (with a dual head ati card)
[04:48] <ConstyXIV> gop: right, i think its a few thousand
[04:49] <|Shadow|> i've been trying for 6 hours yesterday, and atleast 2 hours today and i just can't do it
[04:49] <|Shadow|> been through about 8 tutorials that allways seem to go wrong also :(
[04:49] <ardeni> #ubuntu-pl
[04:49] <gop> sushi I wish ubuntu did it that way
[04:49] <gop> sushi for usb flash is a live cd
[04:50] <gop> when you reboot it reset
[04:50] <emo> _bman|: see if you works..
[04:50] <gop> user and applcations installed
[04:50] <gop> but flash linux is like a real distro install
[04:50] <|Shadow|> heh, back to windows i guess lol
[04:50] <ConstyXIV> |Shadow|: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :)
[04:50] <|Shadow|> lol
[04:51] <|Shadow|> well i've really had it with linux, i spent 8 hours in total just trying to get dual monitors to work
[04:51] <emo> _bman|: what you have done to try to connect ?
[04:51] <|Shadow|> i mean jeez, its not exactly rocket science.
[04:51] <ConstyXIV> |Shadow|: i know someone who's done it, let me get a hold of him
[04:51] <_bman|> omg
[04:51] <_bman|> I'm in
[04:51] <_bman|> wireless works!
[04:51] <_bman|> thanks guys<3
[04:51] <ConstyXIV> |Shadow|: crap, hes in class
[04:51] <|Shadow|> ConstyXIV ok but this is getting repeatitve :P
[04:51] <|Shadow|> lol
[04:51] <citybird> ok i get it. i was looking at instructions for dapper and if i change dapper to edggy it will work.
[04:51] <Steven07> what did you do to make wireless work bman?
[04:52] <emo> _bman|: what you have done ?
[04:52] <|Shadow|> probably would just get the same responce anyways, i kept on getting pointed at bogus tutorials that tell me to run commands that don't work or return errors
[04:52] <_bman|> not sure, let it sit for a second.. after it was all connected
[04:52] <Steven07> nothing..but i've heard it buggy?
[04:52] <ConstyXIV> ive never tried to use dual monitors, i use mostly laptops anyways
[04:52] <_bman|> && FF loaded a page.
[04:52] <Steven07> haha
[04:52] <Steven07> alright
[04:52] <_bman|> =)
[04:52] <|Shadow|> ConstyXIV heh, dual monitors is one of my main things
[04:53] <|Shadow|> because im learning perl, so i have the scripts editor on one screen and a tutorial on the other.
[04:53] <_bman|> one more question, lol..
[04:53] <emo> _bman|: cool well done man at least works but you should know cons you might have the same problem another time.
[04:53] <_bman|> what folder would I use as my.. " folder I put all my stuff in"
[04:53] <Steven07> So everyone here has ubuntu
[04:53] <ConstyXIV> |Shadow|: i think gnome is crappy with twin displays, you may want to try kde
[04:54] <ForgeAus> ahh about usb sticks do you want to run ubuntu from it or just install?
[04:54] <ForgeAus> you can make a minimal CD and just copy packages to that...
[04:54] <|Shadow|> ConstyXIV does kde just support twin displays?
[04:54] <|Shadow|> or do i have to do all this crap in terminal and xorg.conf to make it work
[04:54] <ForgeAus> 8.4mb is all it takes
[04:54] <Guychi> Is there any way to reset the root password if it is forgotten?
[04:54] <ConstyXIV> |Shadow|: im really not sure
[04:54] <|Shadow|> well i suppose i can give it a go
[04:54] <_bman|> what folder would I use as my.. " folder I put all my stuff in"
[04:54] <|Shadow|> how do i install kde?
[04:54] <ForgeAus> mini.iso file
[04:54] <_bman|> ?
