[10:11] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, The two commands that the error message says to run, did you run them?
[10:11] <zango> i have free time, what's a gui linux application i could build?
[10:11] <bob301> sx66 It sounds like the changes have already been made. your partition was removed, and a new one, with a new filesystem, have overwritten it. At this point, it sounds like you will need to use a data recovery utility or take the HDD to a local computer shop for recovery, if it is possible. Data cannot always be recovered, and rarely 100% of the data is restored when retrieval is possible.
[10:11] <DFM> darwin81:Why is that? I did and I get 14 meg down and 768 up and tv looks perfect.
[10:11] <Zta> How do I change the window manager and still keep all the desktop stuff, ie. Nautilus and friends?
[10:11] <Jordan_U> zango, Look at the Ubuntu bounties
[10:11] <jmak642> i've tried hacking my xorg.conf file according to the forum posts i see, but always i have to replace the original xorg.conf to get x to start
[10:12] <zango> Jordan_U, didn't know about that, thanks
[10:12] <LukeEkblad> he first one i run says this: luke@luke-laptop:~$ /etc/apt/sources.list

[10:12] <josh_marshall> Did you run 'sudo apt-get update' ?
[10:12] <bob301> LukeEkblad you need to type 'sudo apt-get upgrade' in that window.
[10:12] <LukeEkblad> yes
[10:12] <intelikey> so why are you trying ot execute the sources.list file ?
[10:12] <astro76> NOT upgrade
[10:13] <bob301> err
[10:13] <naranha> is there a good free serif font which is suited for printing (similar to Times new Roman)
[10:13] <bob301> right...'sudo apt-get update'
[10:13] <josh_marshall> astro76: Sorry, type.
[10:13] <josh_marshall> astro76: typo*
[10:13] <intelikey> biotrox sources.list problem
[10:13] <astro76> LukeEkblad, type sudo apt-get update
[10:13] <sx66> bob301: how do you resize a ntfs to make a 10gb free space for ubuntu?
[10:13] <LukeEkblad> sudo apt-get update   thats what it says
[10:13] <LukeEkblad> wow
[10:13] <LukeEkblad> woops
[10:14] <LukeEkblad> W: GPG error: http://download.tuxfamily.org feisty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY<PHONE_NUMBER>34D43A
[10:14] <biotrox> itelikey, how to fix this..?
[10:14] <LukeEkblad> W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
[10:14] <vip3rousmango> LukeEkblad: are you trying to update wine?
[10:14] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, Have you added extra repositories?
[10:14] <LukeEkblad> uhm
[10:14] <LukeEkblad> What?
[10:14] <LukeEkblad> i think
[10:14] <biotrox> intelikey,...... ?
[10:15] <bob301> sx66: The Ubuntu LiveCD has a graphical program that can do this for you. In fact, you seem to have gone through it once already. however, you need to be careful when choosing the options. You need to tell it to do three things: Resize the existing partition, to make it smaller. 2. Create a new partition for the unused space. 3. install Ubuntu in the new, unformatted partition.
[10:16] <jmak642> has anyone ever set up ubuntu server as an iscsi san server? is it hard?
[10:16] <LukeEkblad> Jordan_U:   yes
[10:16] <sx66> bob301, yes, how do you resize an ntfs of 40gb windows hdd to a 10 gb free space for linux?
[10:17] <chalcedony> does anyone have a kvirc for ubuntu ?
[10:17] <josh_marshall> sx66: Boot up off the LiveCD, run 'sudo gparted'...
[10:17] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, You need to get the pgp key for tuxfamily.org
[10:17] <josh_marshall> sx66: But DEFRAG FIRST.
[10:17] <Jordan_U> josh_marshall, gksudo
[10:17] <LukeEkblad> Jordan_U:  what?
[10:17] <vip3rousmango> Jordan_U: why gksudo gparted?
[10:18] <Jordan_U> !gksudo | vip3rousmango
[10:18] <jmak642> sx66: have you tried gparted? i'm a noob so listening to me might be a bad idea.  i used sudo apt-get gparted and it is nice for me
[10:18] <ubotu> vip3rousmango: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[10:18] <vip3rousmango> ahh ok. didn't know that, thanks :)
[10:18] <josh_marshall> Jordan_U: You know, I've always run sudo out of habit instead of gksudo -- I know thats correct, but I've never had any issues.
[10:18] <josh_marshall> Jordan_U: Probably if it broke more, I'd have learned it by now. :) Bad habits.
[10:18] <jmak642> sx66: but i do agree, defrag from windows first
[10:18] <EdLin> josh_marshall: sometimes that can leave behind root-privledged temporary files that mess things up.
[10:19] <Jordan_U> josh_marshall, Most times you won't but the one time you will will keep you from being able to log in again
[10:19] <q_a_z_steve> Just a quick question, can I make it so the user cannot highlight, and therefore try and select a title column, like "Better Operating Systems" in my triple boot menu?
[10:19] <josh_marshall> Jordan_U: Hahaha...
[10:19] <josh_marshall> Jordan_U: Speaking from bad experiences? :)
[10:19] <LukeEkblad> Jordan_U:   What do i do?
[10:19] <chalcedony> i want to download kvirc on ubuntu edgy, how can i do that?
[10:20] <Jordan_U> josh_marshall, No, speaking from other people's bad experiences :)
[10:20] <EdLin> josh_marshall: most online experts do. ;-)
[10:20] <intelikey> anyone know what this is ?  http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/38069      dmesg is at  http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/38070    ?
[10:21] <josh_marshall> Jordan_U: I should probably spend more time in IRC -- I've been using Ubuntu since Warty, but this is the first time I've ever spent any amount of time in here, and I've already learned that I've developed lots of bad habits -- Automatix, sudo GUI, etc...
[10:21] <intelikey> chalcedony enable the universe repository and use the package manager of your choice
[10:21] <yellow_chicken> "man 3 time" did not give me the manual for time.h?  but "man 3 ctime" give me something.  how to get manpage for time?
[10:21] <LukeEkblad> Can someone elce help me?  here's my problem http://lukeekblad.googlepages.com/grrrr
[10:21] <chalcedony> Intcom: is there a command line way to do that?
[10:21] <intelikey> chalcedony and long time no see  :)   ol'  friend  :)
[10:21] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, You should be able to install things again once you run sudo apt-get -f install
[10:21] <chalcedony> intelikey: *hugs* good to see yo
[10:21] <chalcedony> you
[10:22] <bob301> LukeEkblad: You may want to try backing up your existin sources.list file (just copy it and give it a new name) and then generate a new one from here: http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/ and use it to replace the old one
[10:22] <ari_stress> hi guys, my friend said that we can "activate" root account by: sudo -s ?
[10:22] <chalcedony> intelikey: i'm really not a gui user much
[10:22] <intelikey> chalcedony yes there it.    sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list    &&  sudo apt-get install kvirc
[10:22] <Jordan_U> ari_stress, That will get you a root shell, so yes, sort of
[10:22] <LukeEkblad> bob301:   ok, how odi get to my sources file?
[10:22] <chalcedony> kewl :)
[10:23] <_markt> ari_stress: sudo su -
[10:23] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, Have you run sudo apt-get -f install yet?
[10:23] <ari_stress> thanks Jordan_U. _markt
[10:23] <ari_stress> cool
[10:23] <intelikey> chalcedony errr need an sudo apt-get update between the two commands...   sorry.     i'm disoriented by my own issue.
[10:23] <LukeEkblad> Jordan_U:  yes
[10:23] <LukeEkblad> Jordan_U:  i duno what to do from there tho
[10:23] <bob301> LukeEkblad, you willw ant to back up the file: sudo cp -p /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list_backup
[10:23] <Jordan_U> _markt, sudo -s is the "official" way, though it doesn't really matter
[10:24] <MrMist> anyone here experienced with freebob
[10:24] <MrMist> ?
[10:24] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, Does Add/Remove work now?
[10:24] <MrMist> I can't get it to work with my FireWire sound card
[10:24] <jmak642> well, i'm gonna leave this thing to its work and go to sleep
[10:24] <jmak642> gnight everyone
[10:24] <_markt> it doesn't matter; I'll be adding myself to wheel soon, anyway
[10:24] <LukeEkblad> Jordan_U:  nooo
[10:24] <intelikey> chalcedony that's #   sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install kvirc   <<<<   sorry for the miscue on the first one.
[10:25] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, But sudo apt-get -f install didn't give you any errors?
[10:25] <intelikey> anyone know what this is ?  http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/38069      dmesg is at  http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/38070    ?
[10:25] <LukeEkblad> bob301:  ok, but how do i  get to my sources list?
[10:25] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:25] <LukeEkblad> Jordan_U:  i typed that in, and a bunch of stuff came up, i duno what to do from there
[10:26] <bob301> then generate a new file from the link I sent. You can then use 'gksudo /etc/apt/sources.list' and paste the data into this file, after removing the existing stuff.
[10:26] <bob301> err...yeah, what jordan_U said
[10:26] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, Did you say yes when it asked if you wanted to let it do whatever it wants to do?
[10:26] <intelikey> bob301 !  'gksudo /etc/apt/sources.list'
[10:26] <chalcedony> intelikey: wow thanks .. discovering new stuff, i appreciate it :)
[10:27] <intelikey> chalcedony welcome.
[10:27] <bob301> intelikey...err...yeah, what jordan_U said: Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:27] <LukeEkblad> Jordan_U:  it never said that
[10:28] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, Can you pastebin what it did say?
[10:28] <josh_marshall> So, is there any sort of official movement to the sources.list.d?
[10:28] <josh_marshall> Or is that just for convenience?
[10:28] <LukeEkblad> bob301:   So, i just deleat everthing in that folder and replace it with the code i got from that website?
[10:28] <josh_marshall> !!
[10:29] <intelikey> so let me try this one more time.      anyone know what this is ?  http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/38069      dmesg is at  http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/38070    ?
[10:29] <chalcedony> intelikey: that last command string you gave me, with the # doesn't seem to be doing anything?
[10:29] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, Move, never delete important config files :)
[10:29] <LukeEkblad> Jordan_U:  ok, whats the paistbin url again?
[10:29] <Jordan_U> !paste > LukeEkblad
[10:30] <intelikey> chalcedony it doesn't contain #    that was just to  denote the beginning of the string.    # is a comment marker to the shell   i.e. do nothing after this #  :)
[10:30] <LukeEkblad> Jordan_U:  but replace them?
[10:30] <astro76> I wonder if you can get ubotu's msg without a registered ick

[10:32] <gypsymauro> hi, there are binaries images of kernel with vserver patch applied for feisty?
[10:33] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, Don't do anything with your sources.list until you have actually run the two commands the error told you too
[10:33] <intelikey> chalcedony yes on the first line with   deb *     at the end of the line with main restricted   add  'universe' as a single word     save and exit

[10:37] <Simplechat> i think i have a dumber question
[10:37] <random1> can you use a gui on a server?  or just on the desktop?
[10:37] <random1> =(
[10:37] <intelikey> chalcedony if it gives errors fetching,  note the message  """_markt> LukeEkblad: that's because the servers are down; just wait a while and try again"""    <<< could be the cause.
[10:37] <Simplechat> ok then, mines slightly less dumb
[10:37] <hatter> is it ok to put entries in the fstab as per the old method ?  now UUID is used,  for some reason /dev/sdb1 is not being mounted at boot
[10:37] <Simplechat> how do you use a device?
[10:37] <Simplechat> i've mapped a truecrypt drive, its /dev/mapper/truecrypt0
[10:37] <Simplechat> but how exactly to i use that?
[10:37] <LukeEkblad> Crap, its 1:37 here and i'm soooooooooooo tired Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.ghjkhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[10:37] <Jordan_U> hatter, Yes, you can still use device names
[10:38] <random1> So is that a yes?
[10:38] <Simplechat> yes, you can use gnome/kde on a server
[10:38] <Simplechat> iirc
[10:38] <Simplechat> :(
[10:38] <bobsomebody> crap its 4:37am here, im so wired....
[10:38] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, Go to sleep, the servers will probably be back when you wake up

[10:38] <random1> So then
[10:38] <Simplechat> any ideas on where i would find info on devices?
[10:39] <LukeEkblad> Jordan_U:   so, what do i do when i wake up?
[10:39] <Jordan_U> LukeEkblad, Run the commands that the error tells you to run
[10:39] <random1> How would I put kde on that machine? =/
[10:39] <hatter> I Jordan_U , thx

[10:50] <ubotu> bobsomebody: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:50] <astro76> DBLue, what distro version are you running?
[10:50] <random1> Cool
[10:50] <random1> Thanks
[10:50] <DBLue> Feisty
[10:50] <bobsomebody> predaeus, awwww, u didnt need to do that
[10:50] <LeiraHua> towlieba: i got this problem too, but seems the 3d acceleration still works, at least my compiz works smoothly
[10:50] <Jordan_U> random1, sudo iwconfig < device name > essid < name of network to connect to > && sudo dhclient <device name>
[10:51] <astro76> DBLue, did you install python from the repos, i.e. sudo apt-get install python ?
[10:51] <ibob63> When I try the command mozilla-thunderbird I get the error message: run-mozilla.sh: Cannot execute /opt/thunderbird/mozilla-thunderbird-bin.
[10:51] <LeiraHua> towlieba: and glxgears got a 2xxx points
[10:51] <DBLue> astro76, i did by double-click
[10:51] <DBLue> on the package
[10:51] <Simplechat> one question, why did this happen
[10:51] <astro76> DBLue, where did you download it from then?
[10:51] <Simplechat>  rm -d -f *
[10:51] <Simplechat> rm: cannot remove `other': Is a directory
[10:51] <Simplechat> rm: cannot remove `teset': Is a directory
[10:51] <random1> I hate to sound dumber, but device name?
[10:52] <Goshawk> astro76: if i'm not wrong, python is installed by default in desktop systems
[10:52] <DBLue> i have the package on the hard disk
[10:52] <Simplechat> shouldn't -d make it remove the directory?
[10:52] <Jordan_U> Simplechat, Not if there are files in it
[10:52] <Simplechat> there shouldn't be files in them
[10:52] <Jordan_U> Simplechat, -R to remove directories recursively
[10:52] <Simplechat> ok, that worked
[10:53] <Simplechat> now t/mnt is empty
[10:53] <astro76> DBLue, well you had to get it from somewhere, Goshawk is right, it should already be installed
[10:53] <DBLue> I install another version, maybe that caused the problem, maybe i must upgrade the program?
[10:53] <Simplechat> there are no volumnes mappedf
[10:53] <Goshawk> DBLue: do you have a standard ubuntu feisty desktop system?
[10:53] <astro76> DBLue, you need to stick with packages for ubuntu feisty only, preferably from official repos
[10:53] <Goshawk> DBLue: is yes, just open a shell and type "python" you will have a python2.5 shell
[10:53] <astro76> DBLue, or expect serious breakage
[10:53] <DBLue> But what is done is done, now how can i restore the damage?
[10:54] <Simplechat> ok
[10:54] <Simplechat> truecrypt is mounted
[10:54] <Goshawk> DBLue: double click on the corrupted package (the one that you have downloaded)
[10:54] <Jordan_U> DBLue, Depends on what you installed and how
[10:54] <Goshawk> and "remove it
[10:54] <Simplechat> on /dev/mapper/truecrypt0
[10:54] <Simplechat> that is /mnt, correct?
[10:54] <random1> oh wait
[10:54] <Goshawk> DBLue: then check that the "ubuntu-desktop" package is isntalled
[10:55] <Simplechat> or else?
[10:55] <Goshawk> DBLue: and try running python from the shell
[10:55] <astro76> Simplechat, um..... you would mount /dev/mapper/truecrypt0 on /mnt
[10:55] <DBLue> Hello
[10:55] <_markt> why does ls list all of my files in one column?
[10:55] <Simplechat> how do you map that?
[10:55] <Goshawk> DBLue: hello?
[10:55] <Simplechat> mount?
[10:56] <_markt> oh, there are some really long ones at the top (off the page)
[10:57] <astro76> Simplechat, yes mount, I have no idea how to do it with truecrypt though
[10:57] <astro76> have yet to try that
[10:57] <DBLue> Yes i selected the package, and synaptic says, you have to remove other packages, that packages are all packets that depend on Python, half Linux
[10:57] <Simplechat> hmmm.
[10:57] <Simplechat> its a normal device tho (or appears to be)
[10:57] <Simplechat> mount /mountpoint?
[10:57] <Goshawk> DBLue: ok don't do it
[10:57] <Simplechat> its not in fstab
[10:57] <DBLue> I know
[10:58] <Simplechat> mount: can't find /dev/mapper/truecrypt0 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[10:58] <DBLue> From the cd, is there i way to restore the default packages
[10:58] <_markt> Simplechat: did you give it a mount point?
[10:58] <Simplechat> ?
[10:58] <_markt> actually, never mind
[10:58] <_markt> it's 2am  8)
[10:58] <Simplechat> when i "mounted" the tc partition, it gave me that device
[10:59] <random1> Kickass
[10:59] <Simplechat> and then i'm trying to mount it from that device
[10:59] <_markt> well, now to find out if removing /etc/rc5.d/S13gdm is the dumbest thing I've done in a while
[10:59] <Simplechat> does that make sense?
[10:59] <DBLue> Goshawk, can i use the Ubuntu Feisty Fawn cd to get the default packages?
[10:59] <random1> Using neighbors wireless to download things
[11:00] <random1> Since I have no idea how to get to my own network. =D
[11:00] <random1> KICKASS!
[11:00] <random1> Thanks btw.
[11:00] <DBLue> Goshawk, please help me?
[11:01] <Simplechat> so how would i mount the volume?
[11:01] <_markt> dang, it still came up
[11:01] <astro76> DBLue, try dpkg --remove
[11:01] <DBLue> I did
[11:01] <astro76> DBLue, for the python package
[11:01] <DBLue> Same thing, you have to remove other packets
[11:02] <Simplechat> what type would it be?
[11:02] <Simplechat> for mounting?
[11:02] <DBLue> Yes for Python package
[11:02] <predaeus> Simplechat, try "sudo mkdir /mnt/mycrypt" "sudo mount /dev/mapper/truecrypt0 /mnt/mycrypt" and see what it says
[11:03] <_Carlo_> hi, why there is no apache2 mod security for ubuntu feisty?
[11:03] <DBLue> astro76 do you have any other suggestions?
[11:03] <predaeus> Simplechat, but mind that I am not familiar with truecrypt setup.
[11:03] <Simplechat> mount: mount point /mnt/mycrypt does not exist
[11:03] <Simplechat> ah, sorry
[11:03] <predaeus> just chose the name you want
[11:04] <astro76> DBLue, dpkg --remove --force-depends
[11:04] <Simplechat> ok this seems to be working
[11:04] <neenaoffline> can I use matchbox on the desktop at all ?
[11:04] <astro76> DBLue, that will remove it without removing the other packages, which is dangerous
[11:04] <DBLue> Then i will install Python again
[11:05] <astro76> DBLue, yes
[11:05] <DBLue> But which version was the deafault
[11:05] <astro76> DBLue, what do you mean?
[11:05] <Simplechat> ok
[11:05] <Simplechat> predaeus,  it worked
[11:06] <Simplechat> but i (as my user) currently have no rights to it
[11:06] <DBLue> I mean with the Feisty what version comes
[11:06] <Simplechat> i chmodded it 777
[11:06] <astro76> DBLue, 2.5.1
[11:06] <Simplechat> after doing the symlink
[11:06] <Simplechat> ln -s /mnt /home/tc
[11:06] <dvm> I want to print a file from 25th line to till the EOF. How can i use the "head" or "tail" or similar commands?
[11:06] <Simplechat> actually, one sec
[11:06] <astro76> DBLue, to be exact 2.5.1~rc1-0ubuntu3
[11:06] <Simplechat> how do you unsymlink?
[11:07] <astro76> !info python
[11:07] <ubotu> python: An interactive high-level object-oriented language (default version). In component main, is important. Version 2.5.1-0ubuntu3 (feisty), package size 137 kB, installed size 600 kB
[11:07] <DBLue> astro76, thanks.
[11:07] <predaeus> Simplechat, just remove the symlink
[11:07] <Nuktar> hello
[11:07] <josh_marshall> So what's everyone's take on Ubuntu Mobile vs. things like OpenMoko and Gnome Mobile?
[11:07] <josh_marshall> Or is there another channel for that?
[11:08] <Simplechat> predaeus, rm?
[11:08] <SlimeyPete> #ubuntu-offtopic  is for that kind of discussion
[11:08] <predaeus> Simplechat, yes
[11:08] <SlimeyPete> thisis a support channel :)
[11:08] <Simplechat> ok, thanks :)

[11:09] <predaeus> option
[11:09] <Nuktar> helP! how can I update to gutsy gibbon?
[11:09] <Simplechat> ok
[11:09] <Nuktar> ... from feisty fawn
[11:09] <CaptainM> Nuktar, there are a couple of ways. But you know that gutsy will crash right?
[11:09] <predaeus> Simplechat, read "man ln" and also the manpages for other commands. like "man mount" "man rm" ....
[11:10] <Simplechat> ok :)
[11:10] <Nuktar> no problem for me, i install ubuntu dozens of times a month!
[11:10] <Nuktar> I just wanna try it
[11:10] <Simplechat> they are rather hard to use tho
[11:10] <BlueD> How to get the packages from the Feisty Fawn cd?
[11:10] <Simplechat> and i've still got my problem with access
[11:11] <Simplechat> brb
[11:12] <CaptainM> Nuktar, ok ;) you can change alll the entry's saying feisty to gutsy in /etc/apt/sources.list, you can do a clean install of gutsy or you can do apt-get dist-ufrade
[11:12] <CaptainM> upgrade
[11:13] <Nuktar> ok. thanks ill try now

[11:28] <rjb> ok, is there a better channel to ask about that APIC error shit?
[11:28] <LeiraHua> PG: first u should know your new hd's device name, it may be /dev/hda1
[11:28] <askand> I have problems with my new canon pixma mp510...ubuntu prints on only 1/4 of the paper?
[11:28] <xtreon> Need help! I want to record Mp3 as audio cd and somehow I can't do that in K3b anymore? Do I need a new codec or something? please!
[11:28] <LeiraHua> PG: no, it won't crash your system, it just cannot mount your new HD
[11:29] <_markt> lol
[11:29] <LeiraHua> PG: second, your should create a mount point for your HD, /mnt/hdb for example~
[11:29] <PG> LeiraHua: 1.  2. does it exist a another esealy try.
[11:30] <Simplechat> hmmm.
[11:30] <PG> LeiraHua: iam to silly for thaht^^ sorry

[11:30] <Simplechat> i'm going to restart and hope that it can destroy the device this time
[11:30] <PG> but thanks a lot
[11:30] <PG> for the good help^^
[11:30] <LeiraHua> PG: ... well, it's OK~
[11:30] <SkorpKing> PG: after you changed the fstab file you can test it by typing 'sudo mount /mnt/hdb' it will give an error if something is wrong.
[11:32] <PG> does it change because i have splitt my hdd into three ones
[11:32] <xtreon> please? what do I need to record mp3 as an audio cd whit k3b??

[11:58] <CrackRockSteady> I was having some issues getting pptp working with the network manager, but I worked out what I was doing wrong. But now I have all the test pptp connections I had setup and I can't delete them from my Network Manager Menu using nm-vpn-properties. Is any one able to tell me which configuration file NM uses to store this lis?
[11:58] <CrackRockSteady> list?
[11:58] <nico_> well, does it support RPM or not
[11:58] <jatt> you can install rpms bypassing the debian packaging system but that's not a good idea (rpm is in the repos). Better use alien to convert your rpm to deb format first.
[11:58] <ancient1> Hor|zon: I don't want any problems from a version that doesn't like Gnome
[11:58] <DBLue> What is betther Bochs or VMware

[11:58] <Hor|zon> ancient1, it likes gnome fine....it's a gtk app
[11:59] <jatt> Hor|zon: I know but sometimes there is software where only rpm is available
[11:59] <ancient1> DBLue: VMware  is good. no idea 'bout the othere
[11:59] <erUSUL> !alien | nico_
[11:59] <ubotu> nico_: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)

[11:59] <ancient1> Hor|zon: ok. uninstalling

[11:59] <CrackRockSteady> I guess nobody knows then... Anyone able to point me in the right direction of were too look?

[12:24] <polarheat> jatt: i installed a dapper server and the installer program configured it using DHCP. now i want to change it from DHCP to using static networking. i can modify /etc/network/interfaces to do it but i believe there's a more "right" way to do it using "dpkg-reconfigure".
[12:25] <polarheat> jatt: now "man dpkg-reconfigure" says that i must know the name of the package i want to modify using that tool, but i didn't know which package installed the networking for ubuntu servers.

[12:29] <LadyBug> Honey_bee: I literally just updated two minutes ago and Nautilus works for me.
[12:30] <_markt> I have problems with today's ubuntu updates, but they're the only versions I've ever had  8)

[12:31] <Honey_bee> I am using the terminal now :)
[12:31] <Honey_bee> but i'd quite like my desktop to work too!
[12:31] <_markt> then it seems you can do anything you want  8)
[12:31] <sung> hi
[12:31] <sung> hi

Is there a way to tell it to ignore this package?

[12:38] <polarheat> jatt: but i can lease IP address from the DHCP server.
[12:39] <PG> how do i reconf my conf.file
[12:39] <polarheat> jatt: anyway, i'll try to troubleshoot again. thanks for your help.
[12:39] <jatt> polarheat: well probably your network configuration files are alright. etherconf just provides an interface to setup the network configuration files (the same files could be changed manually to have the same results)
[12:39] <PG> How do i RECONFIGUR MY xorg.conf
[12:40] <Michelle80xx> Really nice website vote and revenge people, feelings, faliure, the intelligent way of revenge: www.revengebay.com
[12:40] <polarheat> jatt: maybe i need to change my sources.list to that in "Unofficial Ubuntu Dapper Starter Guide" and try to install etherconf again.
[12:40] <jatt> polarheat: forgot to mention etherconf is in the universe repositories
[12:40] <polarheat> Michelle80xx: that's interesting.
[12:41] <polarheat> jatt: can you point me to a nice tutorial about setting up a local repository that serves both 32bit and 64bit packages?
[12:41] <PG> NO Helppppppppppppppp
[12:41] <Honey_bee> Anyone have any idea how I can fix Nautilus then?
[12:41] <PG>  How do i RECONFIGUR MY xorg.conf
[12:41] <polarheat> PG: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:42] <stefg> !offtopic
[12:42] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:42] <PG> thanks a lot
[12:42] <LadyBug> jhaig: you can mark it "hold in present state"  with = or H in dselect but it seems Synaptic does not have that functionality.
[12:42] <polarheat> PG: don't forget to install 3d card drivers first (ATI or NVIDIA) before doing "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg".
[12:42] <jatt> polarheat: you mean a ubuntu mirror? Sorry I don't have a clue how that could be done :)
[12:43] <Frogzoo> does gnome-keyring-manager manage any keys other than wifi atm ?
[12:43] <polarheat> jatt: yep ubuntu mirror.
[12:43] <polarheat> jatt: no problem, buddy. you've helped me a lot already. :)
[12:43] <Sevk> /set
[12:43] <Frogzoo> I'd like to have gnome-keyring-manager remember website passwords if possible?
[12:43] <Sevk> :)
[12:43] <jatt> polarheat: but I was curious and found a nice wiki page about it:

[12:46] <feh> so yeah, I have no clue why Usplash isn't working
[12:46] <nomic> cool
[12:46] <feh> It has worked on every other machine I have
[12:46] <stefg> feh: uspalsh doesn't work, because your framebuffer doesn't work, i guess
[12:46] <feh> it seems that it doesn't like this dell for some reason
[12:47] <feh> i'm pretty sure that's not it
[12:47] <Ominous> how come when using network i cant copy a whole folder accross to my laptop

[12:48] <jatt> disk full
[12:48] <Ominous> feh: the other computer is windows so i dont think so
[12:48] <polarheat> berent: read the manual for your motherboard.
[12:49] <jhaig> LadyBug: I'm happy editing a config file.  Do you know where I need to set it?
[12:49] <polarheat> berent: you have to adjust fsb speed multiplier.
[12:50] <sheek> hello. if the mantainer of the amarok package is around I'd like to request him to build the new version 1.4.6 and put it in the repositories
[12:50] <nomic> what bit torrent client is available using apt-get?

[12:51] <Lounge> what are some other things we can do with the terminal besides install, irc, and updates?
[12:51] <berent> polarheat : they say it reduces life of processor
[12:52] <jatt> Lounge: you can run emacs in a terminal and program, read mail, write your documents, etc. with it
[12:52] <Lounge> awsome
[12:52] <sheek> jatt where?
[12:52] <dimon08> Lounge, almost everything)
[12:53] <jatt> !launchpad
[12:53] <ubotu> launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's Bounty and Bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/
[12:53] <Lounge> can we use it to stop wars?
[12:53] <raddy>
[12:53] <polarheat> berent: if your processor's actual speed is really 667 MHz, it won't reduce it's normal life. but if your processor speed is really 500Mhz and you always run it overclocked (that is on 667MHz) it will reduce the processor lifel
[12:54] <LadyBug> jhaig: Just open "sudo dselect", browse to "Select", find your package and press = on it. It should mark the package in hold and it won't be processed.
[12:55] <berent> polarheat : what do u mean by actual speed . i got this information from sudo lshw - capacity:667MHz clock :100MHz
[12:55] <PG> waht doe it means " out of range"
[12:56] <PG> Thats says my screen when i logoff
[12:56] <Dralid> Hey, are there other visualizations besides GOOM? If so, is there a Synaptic Package to install them?
[12:57] <SlimeyPete> PG: that's a message given by your monitor, rather than your PC. It just means that it's lost the signal momentarily. Nothing to worry about unless the pictue doesn't come back.
[12:57] <askand> How do I make myself owner of an debfile?

[01:01] <crofty> my ubuntu 6.06 machine does not the MSHOME network with a two XP laptops on this wireless network? can any1 help please
[01:01] <jhaig> LadyBug: Thanks, I've found it.  Now I see that it is marked for reinstall because it is broken (apparently).  It works, so maybe I'll just leave it, or reinstall with the tarball instead of the .deb file.
[01:03] <LucianIndy> i've noticed when i do ls -l for my Desktop directory, there were two files that ended in a tilda(~) that i did not see on my desktop via gui. what are those files?
[01:03] <LadyBug> jhaig: I'd go with the tarball route, juggling status flags with dselect is PITA, because you can hit all kind of dependency issues.
[01:03] <Glave-work> how can you see what kernel you're using?
[01:03] <nitebirdz> they tend to be backup files created by an app while the originals are being edited, LucianIndy

[01:12] <SlimeyPete> sci3ntist: I mean "ask your question in #perl, not here"
[01:13] <SlimeyPete> this is not a perl channel, it is for ubuntu support.
[01:13] <sci3ntist> It dosnt matter as long as all about linux and scripting
[01:13] <roachmmflhyr_> gsuveg: i believe its lua50
[01:13] <Gasten> sci3ntist: but is it about ubuntu or perl?
[01:14] <Gasten> sci3ntist: ask away.

[01:27] <xoRock> i just update my system, and it feels slower
[01:28] <PG> helpt me, can someone tell me how do i restart the gdm without a newstart
[01:28] <PG> without a reboot
[01:28] <zipper> newstart ?
[01:28] <zipper> ah
[01:28] <zipper> PG, "/etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[01:28] <SlimeyPete> PG: press ctrl-alt-backspace. Or go to a terminal (ctrl-alt-f1) and run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm/restart")
[01:29] <PG> but then the wohole system reboot
[01:29] <zipper> ctrl-alt-backspace is generally considered bad practice
[01:29] <SlimeyPete> sorry, "gdm restart"
[01:29] <SlimeyPete> zipper: indeed, but it works ;)
[01:29] <zipper> PG, no it wont.
[01:29] <PG> ok thanks
[01:29] <SlimeyPete> PG: doing these things shouldot make your system reboot.
[01:29] <SlimeyPete> *should not
[01:29] <askand> ANyone know why i get this status on my printer: /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstocanonij failed

[01:31] <QueenCat> I just installed Ubuntu on this machine, then I did sudo apt#get install kubuntu-desktop. Ubuntu-Install found the GForce4 and installed driver that worked perfectly... I was wondering why the NVidea splash screen didn't show up on boot, so I went in to system configuration and selected the NVidea GForce4 (Generic) which I found out doesn't work at all (max. 640x480) and now I dunno how to get the standard driver back... can someone help?
[01:31] <zipper> nuno_nunes, plz what? You've already gotten your answer.
[01:32] <polarheat> nuno_nunes: install xmms.

[01:32] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[01:32] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, What standard driver? The Nvidia one or the nv open source one?
[01:32] <polarheat> nuno_nunes: install codecs.
[01:32] <polarheat> nuno_nunes: or if you want, install easyubuntu.
[01:32] <zipper> QueenCat, you can replace "nvidia" with "nv" in /etc/xorg.conf to get back your old driver.
[01:32] <ilikec0ws> zipper, /etc/X11/x
[01:32] <QueenCat> ilikeC0ws, the one that I just replaced, which I believe was nv
[01:32] <ilikec0ws> zipper, /etc/X11/xorg.conf :)
[01:33] <zipper> ilikec0ws, ah ofc, my bad
[01:33] <QueenCat> zipper, thx I'll try
[01:33] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, Sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf ...find the nvidia driver line change whats in the @ to nv
[01:33] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, "***
[01:33] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, Stupid american keyboard layout :(
[01:34] <xoRock> how to reinstall synaptic?
[01:35] <QueenCat> hm, xorg.con says nv is the selected driver...
[01:35] <troopperi_> xoRock: type in console  sudo apt-get install synaptic
[01:36] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, If you look down, You'll see lines like this Depth 24 then below it Modes with screen reoslutions inside "" like "640x480"
[01:36] <xoRock> troopperi_, thx
[01:36] <Russian> Good evening everyone :)
[01:37] <troopperi_> xoRock: np :)
[01:37] <QueenCat> ilikeC0ws, yes
[01:37] <berent> Good evening Russian
[01:37] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, Under the depth 24, add your desired screen reolution on that modes line in the same format as the rest
[01:37] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, So it will be Modes "YourxResolution" "640x480"
[01:39] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, Then ctrl+x then press y when asked and enter again, then start x again
[01:39] <QueenCat> ilikec0ws the <Device> Monitor also shows modeline  "640x480@60" 25.2 640 656 752 800 480 490 492 525 -vsync -hsync | should I change that, too?
[01:40] <ainesso> Hello, my first time here and got a question about bluefish on kubuntu feisty
[01:40] <ainesso> Is this the place to ask?
[01:40] <Russian> Is there an option in "Konversation" to turn off all these message, like when someone is leaving or joining the irc channel?
[01:40] <RGautier> yes
[01:40] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, Never seen a line like that before, try it yeahg :)
[01:40] <RGautier> no
[01:41] <daniel_washere> Hi, how do i enable my bluetooth adapter?
[01:41] <RGautier> You might try specific product channels for specific questions
[01:41] <daniel_washere> It said it switched into 'off-mode'
[01:41] <ainesso> ok thanks
[01:41] <RGautier> that are unrelated to ubuntu itself
[01:41] <RGautier> For example #Konversation
[01:41] <zipper> QueenCat, all those numbers (beside 640x480) describe the refresh rate. It shouldn't be necessary, but i guess it couldn't hurt to have them there.
[01:41] <pyro> Hey guys, how to burn an IMG to DVD in ubuntu? I used "growisofs -Z" and it just burn te img file into the disk and didnt create the full disk
[01:41] <ainesso> it's kinda related to ubuntu
[01:41] <ainesso> related to gnome-VFS functionality.....
[01:42] <RGautier> The just ask
[01:42] <kismet> pyro, gnome has gbaker for kde there is k3b
[01:42] <RGautier> The = then
[01:42] <ilikec0ws> ainesso, Just ask away mate :)
[01:42] <zipper> QueenCat, usually the gfx card gets the needed info from the screen itself
[01:42] <pyro> gbaker doesnt do IMG does it?

[01:44] <Russian> hmm I am currently using Konversation
[01:44] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, Good good, just download yourself the proper nvidia drivers,
[01:44] <Frogzoo> pyro: you should be able to just right click the iso & burn image
[01:44] <Russian> But I cant find the option to turn of the channel messages, when someone joins or leaves
[01:44] <ilikec0ws> !nvidia > QueenCat  Check the PM
[01:44] <pyro> frogzoo im talking about IMG
[01:44] <QueenCat> ilikec0ws, would that be the nvidia-xgl package? I wanna use beryl
[01:44] <RGautier> Russian - I use GAIM for IRC
[01:44] <pyro> apparently sometimes you can just change the extention. reckon tht'll work on Windows PE image?
[01:44] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, You can do it through the restricted drivers manager if you want,
[01:45] <zipper> RGautier, it's called pidgin now :)
[01:45] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, Lemme guess you made the switch for the eye candy aye? :P
[01:45] <Russian> yeah zipper what about pidgin
[01:45] <Russian> How do I install it
[01:45] <QueenCat> jupp

[01:45] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, Quite a few people do at first, then reliase what they were missing out on overall :P
[01:45] <zipper> RGautier, sure it is. It just means your Ubuntu installation is out-of-date
[01:45] <Russian> Anyone uses Konversation in here?
[01:45] <merce> no hay ni el tato no?

[01:47] <zipper> RGautier, dunno, its not that long ago
[01:47] <Grnsgrf> hi all
[01:47] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, If you use ubuntu/any linux distro for a few weeks you probably wont want to be switching back
[01:47] <gerro> that is odd wonder what triggers it
[01:47] <Russian> RGautier, when you type in google Gaim, you get automatically searchresult with Pidgin
[01:47] <Grnsgrf> has anybody made experiences with a creative "zen vision m" and gnomad/kzenexplorer?
[01:48] <ilikec0ws> RGautier, You can get a 3rd party pidgin.deb I believe, but first Id try sudo apt-get install pidgin ....just check its not hidden away in the repos
[01:48] <RGautier> I use Application Add/Remove
[01:48] <ilikec0ws> RGautier, You wont find it in there :)
[01:48] <Russian> You can't find it there RGautier
[01:48] <RGautier> I already installed it - and it installed as GAIM
[01:48] <Russian> ^^
[01:48] <RGautier> I did
[01:48] <pyro> help plese, how to burn an img file in 5.04 liveCD?
[01:48] <QueenCat> ilikec0ws, I've been using Ubuntu at work, lately and must say, that I am absolutely amazed by the compability and the community sites in germany
[01:48] <Russian> RGautier: http://pidgin.im/pidgin/home/
[01:48] <Grnsgrf> my zen stucks everytime, if i try to mtp-detect, for example
[01:49] <RGautier> Dude - I already HAVE it - am using it :)
[01:49] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, Id be more amazed by the stability/speed/reliablity :P, but the community support is something windows will never be able to compete with
[01:49] <Russian> K
[01:49] <RGautier> Don't need help installing it - I was suggesting it to you as IRC client
[01:49] <nicodrummer> ola

[01:51] <Reivaj> hi
[01:51] <ilikec0ws> QueenCat, Never been a fan of Suse, like distrowatch says its a bit demanding all the gui configs etc...
[01:51] <gerro> how do I force a floppy to umount?
[01:52] <ilikec0ws> capiira, There has been an update to flash player...
[01:52] <gnomefreak> capiira: flash is grabbing the linux_9_bleh.tar.gz but adobe moved the newest flash tar using the same name so our script is downloading what it thinks is the right version
[01:52] <Reivaj> hi

[02:21] <OldPink> Hey. Thinking of buying a new laptop, 256Mb of RAM, 700-1000Mhz processor. Will the LiveCD run/install on that, or should I download the alternate installer? Aim is to install Ubuntu, see what it's like and if it's to slow just sudo aptitude install xubuntu-desktop - chances are it'll be fine, it's ran well on this system for almost a year now
[02:21] <chade> OldPink:  that should run ubuntu with no issue ... although more ram would be better
[02:21] <Pici> OldPink: You should be fine, you might need a bit more ram, but xubuntu would be good.
[02:21] <Jack_Sparrow> xoRock: Testing everything out there can cause problems.. make a backup of your system especially after a fresh install so you can quickly restore it if needed.
[02:22] <PG> And i forgot to say but i came a message : would you like to set the settings gnome like or system.
[02:22] <PG> i decided system
[02:22] <xoRock> Jack_Sparrow, how do i make backup? is it something like imaging partition?
[02:22] <chade> Is the openoffice.org updates coming down at a crawl speed for anyone else ?
[02:22] <Frogzoo> OldPink: really consider getting 1gig ram
[02:22] <Russian> PG Hold on
[02:22] <OldPink> chade, Pici - I've got a friend installing Ubuntu on his laptop now, and he's going to see how much RAM it uses just running a base install. It's hard to get an idea here, as I have apache, firefox, google desktop, multiple background processes etc. That should help me choose
[02:23] <Jack_Sparrow> xoRock: I use the dd command three lines in a terminal and you can do it right now while we talk..

[02:23] <chade> OldPink:  i would suggest 512 - 1gb ... but if you arent running much you might get away with 256 ...will be kinda slow at times though
[02:23] <ilikec0ws> dvd__, I dont think VIAs support 3D, as in the fancy eye candy stuff etc..

[02:24] <Jack_Sparrow> xoRock: open a terminal...  type sudo su  enter... cd space / enter
[02:24] <Russian> PG Its better to talk in here, other people may use the info also
[02:25] <chade> ilikec0ws:  yeah .. new patches for openoffice
[02:25] <PG> yes alright
[02:25] <Russian> !resolution
[02:25] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[02:25] <Russian> PG sec I am working on it
[02:25] <pim> havar. i'll look into that one. thanks
[02:25] <ilikec0ws> chade, Imagine the amount of people donwloading them then ;)
[02:25] <PG> Russian: do you have seen my conf
[02:25] <xoRock> Jack_Sparrow, then?
[02:25] <Jack_Sparrow> xoRock: tar cvpzf backupxorock.tgz --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backupxorock.tgz --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys --exclude=/media -- /
[02:26] <Jack_Sparrow> xoRock: that is a mouthfull
[02:26] <OldPink> And I'll be using Firefox 3 Alpha 6 (http://www.mbhoy.com/05-07-2007/gran-paradiso-alpha-6) as my experiences with that are excellent, and it dramatically cuts RAM usage. As you can see in the article. So really chade hopefully with a 512Mb Swap and very little running, I should be OK, but Xubuntu is always there to save me, or Fluxubuntu if I'm really cutting down
[02:26] <xoRock> Jack_Sparrow, haha
[02:26] <PG> Hellllllllllppppppppp
[02:26] <Pici> !ask | PG
[02:26] <ubotu> PG: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:26] <AnRkey> PG what card do you have?
[02:27] <Jack_Sparrow> xoRock: You should then see all your files bing compressed into a file in /
[02:27] <chade> OldPink:  i think you will be just fine
[02:27] <PG> I have a ati (radeon 9700)
[02:27] <pyro> unlucky

[02:27] <AnRkey> nvidia forever
[02:27] <m1r> PG ; google > envy
[02:27] <Russian> PG Open synapic package manger
[02:27] <PG> OK
[02:27] <xoRock> Jack_Sparrow, yes and how do i restore the system?
[02:28] <Russian> PG search ATI
[02:28] <PG> I dont want a ati driver
[02:28] <PG> i have it
[02:28] <Jack_Sparrow> xoRock: to restore  sudo su... cd /   ...tar xvpfz backupxorock.tgz -C /
[02:28] <LucianIndy> is there a way to create a launcher that will allow you to drag and drop a file or directory and it would chmod it 700 and change group/user to root?
[02:28] <Russian> then you should just run the command I gave you and it should work
[02:28] <ilikec0ws> PG, my advice would be join #ubuntu-de and ask in german
[02:28] <PG> Russian: And what
[02:29] <PG> Russian: And then
[02:29] <xoRock> Jack_Sparrow, ic, its quite handy ^^
[02:29] <Jack_Sparrow> !backup
[02:29] <ubotu> There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[02:29] <Russian> PG Try this
[02:29] <Russian> sudo apt-get update
[02:29] <Russian> sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-generic restricted-manager
[02:29] <OldPink> Thanks chade.
[02:29] <Jack_Sparrow> xoRock: there is more info on that for you, it explains the excludes
[02:30] <OldPink> Glad that means I can just use one of my shipit CDs, no need to download 700Mb on this 576 connection :P
[02:30] <Nephelauxetic> hi
[02:30] <xoRock> Jack_Sparrow, thx ^^
[02:31] <Jack_Sparrow> xoRock: My other suggestion is to copy your /var/cache/apt/archive folder to a cd ...  that way if you need to reinstall 7.04 for some reason.. you will not need to download all the updates again...
[02:31] <wolverine> anyone know how to setup ftpd from apt? there is no man page nor app called ftpd :P
[02:31] <PG> Russian: on the second code (from you) it says E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[02:31] <grim76> wolverine: try vsftpd
[02:31] <OldPink> PG, you can only run one installation based program at once
[02:31] <Jack_Sparrow> xoRock: just copy them from the cd back to that folder or add the cd to your repo
[02:31] <Russian> PG try to restart ubunu
[02:31] <OldPink> PG, close synaptic/update manager
[02:31] <PG> ok
[02:32] <Nephelauxetic> I'm having problems with my hald (on Feisty, several machines/different hardware). When I use nautilus hald hangs and causes the system to freeze. Also vmware is making trouble

[02:32] <PG> Russian: and then
[02:32] <xoRock> Jack_Sparrow, ok
[02:32] <Jack_Sparrow> xoRock: any questions on that
[02:32] <Russian> Try the codes again

[02:35] <xoRock> Jack_Sparrow, also do u know how to format flash disk from ubuntu?
[02:35] <sarthor> Hi, When i try to start /etc/init.d/shaper , so i get the message.. RTNETLINK answers: No such file or directory... help please....

[02:35] <Jack_Sparrow> xoRock: what do you use the flash for?
[02:36] <xoRock> Jack_Sparrow, copying data? i have 2 gig Adata
[02:36] <dawn`chorus> PG, what's wrong with your screen res?  what're you trying to do?
[02:36] <Nephelauxetic> I'm having problems with my hald (on Feisty, several machines/different hardware). When I use nautilus hald hangs and causes the system to freeze. Also vmware is making trouble. See messages: http://pastebin.ca/614198 which is repeated till I cold boot
[02:37] <pyro> lol? linux thinks docx is a zip?
[02:37] <Jack_Sparrow> xoRock: I have never doe it but I assume gparted would format the flash.. Id have to google it .. I have not had that problem but I dont plug or unplug my flash drive with the system on.
[02:37] <Frogzoo> Jack_Sparrow: that works fine
[02:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Frogzoo: Hi, what works fine
[02:37] <dvd__> ilikec0ws: OK, 10x, anyway
[02:37] <Frogzoo> Jack_Sparrow: just unmount before you unplug
[02:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Frogzoo: I assumed it would.. I just dont have the need
[02:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Frogzoo: That is where I store my dd backup file
[02:38] <Russian> For some reason, available updates arent downloading?
[02:38] <Frogzoo> grr.. these OO updates aren't gonna happen anytime soon...
[02:39] <xoRock> Frogzoo, i wait till the light is absolutely off and eject it
[02:39] <chade> haha .. mine have been going for an hour Frogzoo
[02:39] <PG> i wrote 1280x1024 in the xorg.conf (on  all colors) and when i restart my pc and then i will change it but the normaly resolution like 1024x768 nad 800x600 but i delet the resolution in my conf
[02:39] <xoRock> Frogzoo, is it different, eject vs unmount?
[02:39] <Frogzoo> xoRock: just as long as you unmount first
[02:39] <Frogzoo> xoRock: oh yes..
[02:40] <sarthor> Hi, When i try to start /etc/init.d/shaper , so i get the message.. RTNETLINK answers: No such file or directory... help please....
[02:40] <xoRock> Jack_Sparrow, o well maybe its why
[02:40] <Frogzoo> xoRock: easiest way is to put the Disk Mounter applet in your taskbar & use that to unmount
[02:40] <Jack_Sparrow> Frogzoo: good idea
[02:40] <xoRock> Jack_Sparrow, do i need to unmount it or eject on the first place??
[02:41] <PG> dawn"chorus : i think it sets the screen resolution everytime at defaults
[02:41] <aznpridechinese> anyone know why when i try to install the latest alsa driver 1.0.14 it gives me some kind of permission error during installation?
[02:41] <Jack_Sparrow> xoRock: unmount
[02:41] <xoRock> Frogzoo, ok i added it
[02:41] <dawn`chorus> PG, pastebin your xorg.conf for us.
[02:42] <PG> ok at the site
[02:42] <xoRock> Jack_Sparrow, Frogzoo, thanx ill see how it work ^^ cheers
[02:43] <mythrage> anybody using ipw2100
[02:43] <jabon> #ubuntu-es
[02:43] <Frogzoo> !anyone | mythrage
[02:43] <ubotu> mythrage: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[02:43] <PG> See my conf : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29474/
[02:43] <aznpridechinese> anyone?
[02:43] <LucianIndy> i want to create a launcher that will allow you to drag and drop a file to it, enter your sudo pw, then it would chmod the item to 700, change ownership to root and change the group to root. is this possible?
[02:44] <PG> my config : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29474/
[02:44] <Frogzoo> LucianIndy: you can drop onto launchers?
[02:45] <LucianIndy> yeah, i have one that is             gksudo "gnome-open %u"
[02:45] <RickH> LucianIndy:  I like the idea.
[02:45] <LucianIndy> drop a file onto that and enter sudo, then it opens as sudo
[02:45] <mythrage> Does anyone using ipw2100 on ubuntu
[02:46] <RickH> LucianLindy:  That would be very nice.  Right now there are many apps that I have to start in terminal for that reason.
[02:46] <LucianIndy> the value of %u when you drop something is file:///whatever/whatever/etc
[02:46] <dawn`chorus> PG, i don't know why you can't get your desired resolution.
[02:46] <LucianIndy> i need one that doesn't do file:/// because chmod,chgrp, and chown wont allow it
[02:46] <RickH> LucianIndy:  Is that a desktop change as well?
[02:46] <dawn`chorus> PG, try reading on this page: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[02:46] <LucianIndy> RickH, desktop change?
[02:47] <Pici> LucianIndy: you could write a script to pull off the first part of the path and then run that through the commands you want.
[02:47] <RickH> LucianIndy:  Something like modifying drag-and-drop behavior?
[02:47] <dawn`chorus> PG, here's the ATI part: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto#head-42bafbcee7a10ed50f2d9016555557b9874be252
[02:47] <LucianIndy> no, it works without any mods
[02:47] <RickH> nice
[02:47] <LucianIndy> just make a launcher with 'gksudo "gnome-open %u" ' (minus the single ')
[02:47] <Nephelauxetic> I'm having problems with my hald (on Feisty, several machines/different hardware). When I use nautilus hald hangs and causes the system to freeze. Also vmware is making trouble. See messages: http://pastebin.ca/614198 which is repeated till I cold boot
[02:48] <PG> dawn" chorus: ive made a reconfigure and then when ubuntu started a message pop uped and it asked me with wich options the settings will load (system or gmone desktop) i decided system and that is why the shi doeant workkkkkkkk
[02:48] <LucianIndy> and you can drag/drop anything that needs to be opened via sudo
[02:48] <LucianIndy> Pici, i'll try that
[02:48] <SAndre> hello
[02:48] <LucianIndy> i'll have to use perl or something wont i?

[03:00] <jetscreamer> PG: when it asks you about your monitors refresh rates, in the advanced section of the dpkg-reconfigure... it gives you a choice between simple medium and advanced...
[03:00] <PG> jetscreamer:  grep EE says can not open device
[03:00] <Alkhouli> "tinyproxy"  denys me from connecting to some sites ... i tried uninstalling it but i lost all the sites access then , i don't know wut to do ? can anyone help ?

[03:03] <jetscreamer> works just fine here rickh
[03:04] <Alkhouli> jetscreamer, i dd the aptitude remove , but i can't connect to HTTP sites anymore now !!
[03:04] <RickH> I ask because I've seen several people (and read several blogs) indicating you should not use it on NTFS disks.  As if it were still buggy and could cause corruption.
[03:04] <jetscreamer> pg i'm not sure what to tell you then.  can you paste your xorg.conf in a pastebin?
[03:05] <RickH> I haven't had any problem so far.
[03:05] <jetscreamer> RickH: all i know is i've used it a few times and checked with chkdsk in windows everytime... no problems
[03:05] <jetscreamer> so far
[03:05] <PG> ive made that pastbin thing
[03:05] <RGautier> Whats the link, PG
[03:05] <jetscreamer> you should not use the ntfs write in the regular ntfs support
[03:05] <PG> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29474/
[03:06] <Alkhouli> jetscreamer, it seems that the system can not go out to HTTP sites without that proxy ! How can i reconfigure it ?!
[03:06] <Russian> Restricted Driver manager says Ati accelerated graphics drive is not in use, how to put it in use?

[03:08] <Fiercirous> hi all, i wish to find out if there is a generic webcam driver for ubuntu? i have got a free webcam as a sign up gift but this free webcam is a tailored product, and therefore no liunx drivers are provided. appreciate any leads onto this.
[03:08] <PG> jetscreamer: And waht is it
[03:08] <RickH> jetscreamer:  Do I have to undo something after installing ntfs-3g?
[03:08] <RickH> jetscreamer:  Undo something in the kernel?
[03:09] <Fiercirous> hi all, i wish to find out if there is a generic webcam driver for ubuntu? i have got a free webcam as a sign up gift but this free webcam is a tailored product, and therefore no liunx drivers are provided. appreciate any leads onto this. btw, there is no model number for the webcam. i have got it working in windows though. but not ubuntu; ubuntu failed to detect it (usb connection).
[03:09] <jetscreamer> PG: when you did hwinfo, did it return the values of HorizSync	28-51 & VertRefresh	43-60 ?
[03:09] <Russian> Tallman da ruski
[03:09] <jetscreamer> pg also it seems to indicate you have 3 wacoms
[03:09] <PG> wait
[03:09] <jetscreamer> RickH: no you don't, you just have to mount the hd with -t ntfs-3g instead of -t ntfs
[03:09] <jetscreamer> s/hd/partition/
[03:10] <RickH> jetscreamer:  Where do I check that that is happening?  Does the ntfs-3g install package do that automatically?
[03:10] <tallman> Russian: why don't you ask at the russian channel then?)
[03:10] <jetscreamer> RickH: if you installed ntfs-3g all required files 'should' have been installed at the same time (if you didn't have them)
[03:10] <Russian> tallman Caues I have an english keyboard
[03:10] <RickH> jetscreamer:  Okay... I figured as much.  You were beginning to make me nervous. :)
[03:11] <jetscreamer> RickH: no you would just need to amend your fstab or the mount command you use
[03:11] <tallman> Russian: that makes it clear.
