[15:52] <F-3000> Slart: If the whole Ubuntu hangs up so badly that all I can do is press power/reset-button, what you'd consider as a source for the problem?
[15:52] <Pest> gey is here someone from Crete,Greece ? :(
[15:52] <Pici> tavis1: sudo chown -R tavish:tavish ~/.mozilla/
[15:53] <Pici> !gr | Pest
[15:53] <mixed1234> binarymutant, i have gdm installed, you know how to enable and disable kdm?
[15:53] <blueeyez> does anyone know a program that special supports mp3, wmv and flv? and a lot more video/audio files?
[15:53] <blueeyez> a converter program
[15:53] <genii> ffmpeg will use whatever codecs you have installed
[15:53] <Slart> F-3000: no matter what you do? it's not just happening when you run something special? I would suggest the noapic and nolapic stuff but you're already using those
[15:54] <binarymutant> mixed1234, well I would remove kdm, which you can do in synaptic but there are ways to do it in the terminal as well
[15:54] <Pest> ubottu i alredy tryed in this channles noone can give me hand dare :(
[15:54] <Pest> thx anyway
[15:54] <blueeyez> i have tried it but didnt work
[15:54] <thiebaude> bye guys,later
[15:54] <tavis1> pici: its working fine now!!  thanks a lot pici !
[15:54] <tavis1> :)
[15:54] <F-3000> Slart: Now it froze while booting, and two lights are flashing on keyboard. I assume it did use those parameters I did input into menu.lst.
[15:55] <ShinobiTeno> Pest, what problems do you have?
[15:55] <Slart> F-3000: did you have a chance to run update-grub?
[15:55] <F-3000> Slart: ctrl+alt+del has no effect.
[15:55] <Rideh> hey how can i tell what package dependencies something is compiled with? i want to see if openldap compiled with openssl s
[15:55] <F-3000> Slart: I did it before reboot.
[15:55] <Pici> tavis1: Great :)
[15:55] <Gnea> blueeyez: i told you: avidemux and audacity.
[15:55] <kk_ubuntu> hello, I use recordmydesktop on ubuntu hardy and find that when I finish my recording and play the out.ogg file in vlc, the video and sound is not in tandum.  the vidio comes late and audio come early.  it is not syncronised. has some one faced this problem?
[15:55] <Slart> F-3000: there is some kind of "secret handshake" key combo to force a reboot.. can't remember it though
[15:55] <Slart> F-3000: just powercycle it
[15:55] <Gnea> blueeyez: audacity does support audio files
[15:56] <ShinobiTeno> @everyone, is there a way to make Audacity work with PulseAudio????
[15:56] <blueeyez> audacity didnt work
[15:56] <Gnea> maybe you didn't take the time to get to know it right
[15:56] <Slart> ShinobiTeno: isn't audacity oss only?
[15:56] <F-3000> Slart: Any way to see what went wrong at last boot, in case the system starts now?
[15:56] <Slart> F-3000: well.. there's always the logs
[15:57] <blueeyez> well yea but i need flv and wmv converted into mp3
[15:57] <ShinobiTeno> Slart, thats the problem. It requires some exclusive access...
[15:57] <Slart> F-3000: /var/log/messages, /var/log/syslog, /var/log/kern.log
[15:57] <ShinobiTeno> Slart, using mxWaveEdit instead...
[15:57] <kk_ubuntu> the recordmydesktop is being run on hardy 64 and the video lags wen the output is played
[15:57] <F-3000> Slart: Wrote those log-names down...
[15:58] <F-3000> Slart: Now it froze on white screen. I think login crashed.
[15:58] <blueeyez> oka i found a way:P
[15:59] <Slart> F-3000: can you use the recovery option in grub?
[15:59] <F-3000> Slart: Again it doesn't respond at all.
[15:59] <blueeyez> or well its mp3 now but its still filling 23 MB
[15:59] <F-3000> Slart: That's what I'm going to try next.
[15:59] <Jefo> is there a command to get a bios sound?
[15:59] <Pici> Jefo: What is bios sound?
[16:00] <blueeyez> Gnea dont you know a music/video converter in same program?
[16:00] <Slart> beautifulsnow: hmm.. I took a look in gconf-editor.. there are lots of shortcuts for nautilus and metacity.. but as far as I could tell it was all keyboard stuff. notthing for the mouse
[16:00] <wooker> :)
[16:00] <Jefo> Pici, i mean the sound that comes from the mainboard, not the soundcard/speakers
[16:01] <Jefo> system sound
[16:01] <beautifulsnow> Oh Slart where may i find that file? the shortcut is not listed as Alt+Button 2 or something?
[16:01] <Gnea> blueeyez: i've already told you what they are in ubuntu.
[16:01] <scientus_> according to mount /etc/mtab has my drive mounted but via umount it is unmounted, i cant deleate or look at mtab m=but mount tells me what actually is mounted, how do i mount without consultng mtab??
[16:01] <Jefo> like for a boot error
[16:01] <Rideh> is there a way in ubuntu to specify support to be compiled in when using apt-get - example slapd+openssl
[16:01] <Gnea> blueeyez: if you want to get extra fancy, there's always ffmpeg, but it's not a gui
[16:02] <zamba> i've just mirrored my hard drive to an other hard drive, using cp -ax / /new-drive
[16:02] <Pici> Rideh: No, because apt-get doesn't compile things, it just gets binaries.
[16:02] <zamba> now i want to set up grub
[16:02] <zamba> how do i do this?
[16:03] <Rideh> Pici:  ty, i miss gento's use flag portage setup.. oh well
[16:03] <Pici> Rideh: You could use apt-get source and compile yourself (or use apt-build, but I'm not too familiar with that)
[16:03] <tMish> intrepid is too raw for me. going back t 8.04
[16:03] <Rideh> ty
[16:03] <bastid_raZor> !grub | zamba
[16:03] <Pici> Jefo: Before Ubuntu has booted?
[16:03] <zamba> bastid_raZor: i've tried this.. but when entering root hd1,0 it says unrecognized device string
[16:04] <oiky> after rebooting, some of my settings (eg kopete xchat) were lost. anyone knows what the problem?
[16:04] <Jefo> Pici, i just want to know how to make that system sound
[16:04] <zamba> bastid_raZor: and that find command just gives me the file..?
[16:04] <F-3000> Slart: kern.log's last line before crash: [59...] lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions
[16:05] <railsbob> msg nickserv identify anup1234
[16:05] <railsbob> shit
[16:05] <Pici> railsbob: Time to change that password.
[16:05] <codeblue> can some one help me, I made an account with adduser --disable-login rt
[16:05] <railsbob> hehe
[16:05] <railsbob> yes
[16:05] <codeblue> now i cant use "screen" on that account
[16:05] <F-3000> Slart: messages log says same.
[16:05] <codeblue> here is the error: Cannot open your terminal '/dev/pts/2' - please check.
[16:06] <Slart> beautifulsnow: just run gconf-editor in a terminal.. it's a tree structure.. much like the windows registry if you've ever messed with that
[16:06] <Slart> F-3000: I don't think that's the one..
[16:06] <markalsa> hello, i am trying to do record of my desktop but all the programs dont work
[16:07] <Slart> F-3000: can you pastebin the system log?
[16:07] <markalsa> istanbul, recordmydesktop, xvidcap
[16:07] <Slart> F-3000: sudo apt-get pastebinit; cat /var/log/syslog | pastebinit
[16:07] <markalsa> all have problems
[16:07] <bastid_raZor> zamba; from the 2nd link did you try the Reinstalling grub option of using the Ubuntu CD
[16:07] <F-3000> Slart: While syslog's last message was avahi-daemon[4606] : Registering new address record for MAC-address on eth0.*.
[16:08] <hoonteke> I have a few bad bits in one of my ram chips.  I understand there is a kernel module "badram" that deals with this automatically by taking those bits out of the allocation algorithm.  Does Ubuntu use this kernel module, and how do I find out my setup?
[16:08] <aaron_> my firefox is taking up my entire desktop
[16:08] <aaron_> how do I switch it back
[16:08] <Slart> F-3000: I doubt it's avahi.. I would guess apic/lapic problems or graphics problems..
[16:08] <Slart> aaron_: double click the title panel
[16:08] <Slart> aaron_: or press F11
[16:08] <F-3000> Slart: How I check if that noapic actually kicked in?
[16:10] <aaron_> thanks how do I save the setting...still opens and takes my whole desktop
[16:10] <Slart> F-3000: try this "grep -i apic /var/log/dmesg
[16:10] <Slart> aaron_: afaik it should save it between sessions.. without doing anything
[16:11] <F-3000> Slart: There's 8 lines returned.
[16:11] <aaron_> I close it and it opens and takes my whole desktop
[16:11] <aaron_> arg
[16:11] <Coiotes> Has anyone here exported Apple Mail settings/contacts to Evolution/Thunderbird on Linux? Having trouble finding a guide to do it easily.
[16:11] <gouki> Is there a minimal CD image of Intrepid already? Can't seem to find it.
[16:11] <Slart> F-3000: you can compare it to my output from the same command.. http://pastebin.com/f5962bac2
[16:11] <F-3000> Slart: And apt-get pastebinit gives "E: Invalid operation pastebinit"
[16:12] <Gnea> gouki: they should know in #ubuntu+1
[16:12] <Slart> F-3000: sudo apt-get install pastebinit; cat /var/log/syslog | pastebinit
[16:12] <Slart> F-3000: forgot the install =)
[16:12] <Slart> !info pastebinit | F-3000
[16:12] <ActionParsnip> hey all
[16:13] <Slart> ello ActionParsnip
[16:13] <ActionParsnip> if i force an fsck will it scan both partitions on my one and only internal disk
[16:13] <scientus_> according to mount /etc/mtab has my drive mounted but via umount it is unmounted, i cant deleate or look at mtab m=but mount tells me what actually is mounted, how do i mount without consultng mtab??
[16:13] <Gnea> scientus_: just use the mount command
[16:14] <F-3000> Slart: Had to do "dhclient" to get net-access. :P
[16:14] <scientus_>  sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[16:14] <scientus_> mount: according to mtab, /dev/sda1 is already mounted on /media/sda1
[16:14] <Gnea> scientus_: df
[16:14] <scientus_>  df
[16:14] <scientus_> df: cannot read table of mounted file systems: Stale NFS file handle
[16:14] <ActionParsnip> or if i force the fsck will it only scan /?
[16:14] <scientus_> and i dont use NFS
[16:14] <scientus_> and have never used it
[16:14] <FloodBot3> scientus_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:14] <scientus_> and this persisted through restarting
[16:15] <sam__> how can i optimize squid for downloads, i have windows & mac users who download fairly large OS and antivirus updates, i don't want the same file coming down the wire each time
[16:15] <Slart> F-3000: hehe.. recovery mode is hard to work with =)
[16:15] <Gnea> scientus_: can you pastebin your /etc/fstab?
[16:15] <F-3000> Slart: http://pastebin.com/f67996823
[16:15] <Slart> ActionParsnip: I remember seeing that info in some man page.. can't remember where though.. didn't find it in man shutdown, man fsck, man reboot
[16:15] <Gnea> sam__: #squid
[16:15] <ActionParsnip> sam__: setup a local windows update server and local antivirus server to spread out updates
[16:16] <scientus_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/60556/
[16:16] <ActionParsnip> Slart: cheers man
[16:16] <F-3000> Slart: Gotta say, I'm a lot easier one to help at, as I've installed FreeBSD, and fooled around with it a lot. :)
[16:16] <sam__> cheers...
[16:17] <Slart> F-3000: never messed with freebsd.. it's on my todo list though.. check line 62 in your pastebin.. it says "#
[16:17] <Slart> #

[16:17] <Slart> bah.. sorry everyone
[16:17] <FloodBot3> Slart: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:18] <F-3000> Slart: So that's supposed to mean that apic is off the game?
[16:18] <Gnea> scientus_: looks like /media/sda1 is already setup automatically
[16:18] <scientus_> but its not mounted
[16:18] <scientus_> and mount -a doesnt work
[16:18] <Slart> F-3000: that's my guess.. but then there are lines claiming "bla bla bla apic enabled" and such..
[16:18] <Gnea> how do you know that?
[16:18] <scientus_> i understand the basics but i have some wierd corruption that prevents me from resetting mtab
[16:19] <F-3000> Slart: I noticed same.
[16:19] <scientus_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/60558/
[16:19] <Guest41531> hello
[16:19] <F-3000> Slart: I'll try boot with apic enabled.
[16:19] <Gnea> well, we're going to have to run through the basics to get anywhere, i'm not going to assume what you do/don't know. that would be counterproductive.
[16:19] <Slart> F-3000:do that.. it's not like it can get worse
[16:19] <scientus_> rm wont remove it
[16:19] <Guest41531> hej są tu polacy??
[16:19] <mixed1234> how do you report a bug???
[16:19] <flourish> hello everyone, one day i saw a command: maybe it is : find ./ -iname "*.cue" | xargs chmod 644 + , what deos the "+" here mean and where is it from?
[16:19] <dusty-sts> Hey guys I have purchased mobile broadband from T-Mobile and they have bundled this modem with it: Bus 002 device 002: id 12d1:1003 Huawei Technologies Co, LTD. E220 HSDPA Modem.  It works great under windows, but I am fighting with it to get it working under Ubuntu, it appears to be supported by my kernel and recognises it fine.  I just can't seem to configure it to connect to the net, no matter what I try..  Has anyone in here had any e
[16:19] <dusty-sts> xperience with this ?
[16:19] <Slart> !pl | Guest41531
[16:19] <Gnea> !bug | mixed1234
[16:19] <scientus_> !launchpad | mixed1234,
[16:20] <F-3000> Slart: It might even fix it. :D Altho if that's the case, I'll be tolly confused. Since I wasn't able to do installation with apic on.
[16:20] <Gnea> scientus_: what's this /mnt/www ?
[16:20] <mxdoom> Who here uses exchange?
[16:20] <scientus_> its just a samba driev Gnea
[16:20] <Gnea> !ask | mxdoom
[16:20] <scientus_> it works fine
[16:20] <Slart> mxdoom: exchange on linux? sounds like fun.. using wine? =)
[16:21] <mxdoom> Slart: ;p
[16:21] <mxdoom> Gnea: don't make me call the qq police.
[16:21] <FreshUbuntuNoob> flourish, + adds the specified modes to the specified classes
[16:21] <mixed1234> Gnea, so we can't report a bug anonymously?  we have to create an account?
[16:21] <scientus_> how do i force deleate the /etc/mtab file, rm wont work
[16:21] <Gnea> mxdoom: heh, go right ahead
[16:22] <Gnea> mixed1234: that's right.
[16:22] <binarymutant> mixed1234, anonymously = spam
[16:22] <Gnea> mixed1234: anonymous is weak.
[16:22] <F-3000> !vi
[16:22] <genii> scientus_: Since that file keeps getting dynamically re-made by the system you will never get rid of it
[16:22] <Slart> scientus_: I'm not sure mtab is a normal file.. or it's generated .
[16:22] <mxdoom> I'm looking for an exchange compatible client, but evolution sucks! It doesn't support all types of public folders and it doesn't support css! That i terrible! I need a email client that support CSS, exchange, public folder, and calendar and contact support that exchange offers but I need it on ubuntu.
[16:22] <user_> sorry to bother you again but how do i install e17 desktop shell
[16:23] <F-3000> Slart: How did I edit with vi again? :D I (letter) doesn't work this time.
[16:23] <Slart> F-3000: I hate vi.. can't you use nano instead?
[16:23] <Gnea> scientus_: alright, let's go with a pastebin of dmesg
[16:23] <FreshUbuntuNoob> !code
[16:23] <scientus_> no gneii, i think its corrupt and by removing it will work again
[16:23] <zer0ne> hi, can anyone explain why my atheros wifi card no longer works under <IP_ADDRESS> or 21 kernels. the kernel is not loading the appropriate mdules..?
[16:23] <mxdoom> !exchange
[16:23] <flourish> FreshUbuntuNoob: thanks, i find the original command: find ~ -iname '.DirIcon' -exec tar uPvf icon.tar {} +
[16:23] <mxdoom> !email
[16:23] <mxdoom> !mail
[16:23] <flourish> FreshUbuntuNoob: where does the "+" come from?
[16:23] <Slart> F-3000: but to answer your question.. I thought 'i' was for insert mode..
[16:23] <mxdoom> :(
[16:24] <Gnea> scientus_: if you think that will fix it, then just do it
[16:24] <genii> scientus_: If you remove it then the system will not know what filesystems are mounted
[16:24] <mxdoom> !emailclient
[16:24] <FreshUbuntuNoob> mxdoom, AFAIK, there is no fully compatible client with Exchange
[16:24] <Slart> F-3000: I don't know any other secret keys to make it work
[16:24] <MTecknology> ikonia: hi
[16:24] <scientus_> rm /etc/mtab
[16:24] <scientus_> rm: cannot remove `/etc/mtab': Stale NFS file handle
[16:24] <scientus_> i cant do it
[16:24] <user_> anyone know how to get e17 desktop?
[16:24] <Slart> scientus_: why do you want to remove it?
[16:24] <F-3000> Slart: nano did the trick. :D
[16:24] <Gnea> scientus_: ls -l /etc/mtab  perms?
[16:24] <binarymutant> mxdoom, never heard of a linux email client that works well with exchange, you could turn IMAP or POP on though
[16:25] <binarymutant> user_, e17 is still in development I think, but I know you could get e16
[16:25] <Gnea> user_: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-install-e17-enlightenment-desktop-in-ubuntu.html
[16:25] <user_> thank you
[16:25] <F-3000> Slart: I use edit on FreeBSD, vi on my webhost (SSL), and... heck, haven't yet found out "works on them all"-type for linux. :P
[16:25] <Gnea> binarymutant: e17 is stable enough to recommend now
[16:26] <Gnea> binarymutant: www.elivecd.org  only requires 100mhz and 64MB of ram.
[16:26] <binarymutant> Gnea, is it going to be in intrepid? I've been waiting for it to get into the repos
[16:26] <savid> How do I browse a windows share that requires a password?
[16:26] <F-3000> Slart: It booted all cool.
[16:26] <scientus_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/60563/
[16:26] <Gnea> binarymutant: i doubt it
[16:26] <Slart> F-3000: *sigh*.. one of these days I'll have to sit down and learn vi.. or emacs.. or both.. then my tranformation will be complete.. I can uninstall gnome and just run in textmode.. with the occasional text mode quake session.. ;)
[16:26] <binarymutant> Gnea, :*(
[16:27] <Slart> F-3000: with apic enabled?
[16:27] <F-3000> Slart: Yep.
[16:27] <lungren> When i installed ubuntu it deleted vista but i still want a windows on here dual-booted.  is there any way i can get a copy of xp using my proof of purchase or something?
[16:27] <Gnea> scientus_: hrm, it says your samba server isn't responding
[16:27] <scientus_> thats cause i hibernated
[16:27] <Slart> F-3000: it's a weird weird world.. but still, this time it's actually good.. you've got a working ubuntu install
[16:27] <scientus_> perhaps
[16:27] <Pici> lungren: You'll need to contact your vendor for that, or ask in ##windows
[16:27] <lihoo_hoso> just use vBox..
[16:28] <scientus_> but yeah im not sure its up right now, but i had this prob when it was up
[16:28] <lungren> ty
[16:29] <F-3000> Slart: Not said yet. I need to see if it crashes on it's own again.
[16:29] <Gnea> scientus_: yeah, hibernation will screw things up sometimes
[16:29] <t2> hi all,  since source-o-matic is down forever, is there any other website that will let me configure my sources.list ?   Where can i find a list of all ubuntu repositorys ie location based and also the non-official stuff like the Opera Browser repo ?   thanks
[16:30] <F-3000> Slart: And it did *just* that when I opened updater.
[16:30] <Torway> Hi, I have had the same reoccuring problem now for over a week... Everything seems to be working fine but sound is not working in such applications as Miro, Youtube and Myspace. Sound IS working when testing through Sound settings and watching DVDs... (its an new mediacenter PC wtih AMD64 etc) Any ideas please??
[16:30] <Gnea> scientus_: see if you can boot the livecd and remove the mtab that way
[16:30] <scientus_> arggg
[16:30] <scientus_> seriously why isnt there a force rm
[16:30] <echinos_> rm -f?
[16:30] <F-3000> Slart: No any kind of reaction.
[16:30] <scientus_> just remap where that file pointer points to
[16:30] <scientus_> rm -f didnt work
[16:30] <echinos_> ah
[16:30] <Slart> F-3000: sigh.. nothing in the logs this time either I suppose?..
[16:31] <F-3000> Slart: ctrl+alt+del doesn't work. ctrl+alt+F# doesn't work...
[16:31] <lbci> torway: have you played with the mixer settings? maybe on a diff channel
[16:31] <F-3000> Slart: Gotta check once it boots.
[16:31] <Slart> F-3000: just be happy it isn't a laptop =)
[16:31] <Torway> ibci: What is the mixer settings?

[16:32] <Luis_> help please
[16:32] <aguitel> dusty-sts, is usb modem ?
[16:32] <hoonteke> will badram or equivalent functionality be included in Intrepid?
[16:32] <binarymutant> Luis_, help w/ what?
[16:33] <Luis_> Internet,
[16:33] <kunwon1> hoonteke, ask them in #ubuntu+1 :)
[16:33] <Luis_> I cant connect.
[16:33] <hoonteke> that's a channel?
[16:33] <hoonteke> cool, didn't know
[16:33] <F-3000> Slart: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/F3000
[16:33] <kunwon1> hoonteke, yes
[16:33] <binarymutant> Luis_, are you on it right now?
[16:33] <Luis_> I have a MEDION laptop and a ADVENT computer running ubuntu
[16:33] <Luis_> im on my laptop right now totalk to you
[16:34] <user_> what's the command to see what version of ubuntu i have?
[16:34] <bastid_raZor> user_; lsb_release -a
[16:34] <Gnea> user_: lsb_release -a
[16:34] <bastid_raZor> two answers is too much for that guy.
[16:34] <rtape> #ubuntu
[16:35] <ThexLeopard> hello all, i have a problem with my java runtime environment, it wont run java programs, anyone have any ideas what the problem might be?
[16:35] <binarymutant> Luis_, so are you connected by ethernet cable or wifi?
[16:35] <ubunt2> i have problems with my installation of 8.04 on my desktop
[16:35] <Luis_> Well, laptop = wifi, but I have ethernet connection for the ubuntu PC, it just doesnt connect.
[16:36] <F-3000> Slart: Man, my memory sucks. :D
[16:36] <ubunt2> i have windows installed and a former ubuntu version and the installation gets stck 4 hours now
[16:36] <binarymutant> Luis_, hmm, type sudo dhclient into a terminal, but it sounds like a router or internet problem
[16:36] <F-3000> Slart: "If you need to use special commands while booting with LiveCD, and you need to add the same commands into boot with installed Kubuntu, just slip them into GRUB."
[16:36] <Luis_> I done the command
[16:36] <oalep> hello, im running a ubuntu live cd on my crappy windows laptop, i connected my pendrive but i dont know how to access it,
[16:37] <ubunt2> live cd starts normally
[16:37] <oalep> how can i see the list of storage units?
[16:37] <Slart> F-3000: ok, back again..  .. oh.. you've done this before =)
[16:37] <genii> oalep: sudo fdisk -l
[16:37] <F-3000> Slart: Installed Kubuntu on laptop which has Vista.
[16:38] <ubunt2> but during the installation on the harddrive, 8.04 seems to try to reduce a windows partition instead of using unpartitionned disk space
[16:38] <Luis_> I done the command, now what?
[16:38] <F-3000> Slart: Done it twice, actually.
[16:38] <user_> anyone know a different address on a tutorial on how to install e17 desktop? http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-install-e17-enlightenment-desktop-in-ubuntu.html didn't work
[16:38] <F-3000> Slart: But per my experience, Kubuntu is relatively unstable.
[16:38] <binarymutant> Luis_, if it worked you should see an ip and be able to connect to the internet, if not check the wires and make sure they are plugged in
[16:38] <ikonia> user_: is it available as a package in synaptic ?
[16:38] <Adam> any one know any other wireless config tools other than wireless manager?
[16:38] <ThexLeopard> need help with java runtime environment
[16:38] <user_> i think not
[16:38] <F-3000> Slart: *especially* if you customize the appearance. More customized, more unstable.
[16:38] <Adam> i mean network manager
[16:39] <ikonia> user_: then you'll have to build it yourself
[16:39] <jron> new question... why can't my default user edit files created under a nagios:nagios when my default user is part of the nagios group?
[16:39] <Slart> F-3000: I've been so lucky when it comes to ubuntu so far.. installed it on 1 laptop and 2 desktops.. no problems .. working wireless, graphics etc etc
[16:39] <jron> new = newb. :P
[16:39] <Luis_> I didn'tget an IP. But I did get things appearing.
[16:39] <F-3000> Slart: Did you know, that if you want to make MP3s with Kubuntu, all you got is command-line tool? :P
[16:39] <user_> ok where do i get the source?
[16:39] <binarymutant> Luis_, what does it say?
[16:39] <ubunt2> from ubuntu.com
[16:39] <Luis_> It says:
[16:39] <lobo0> I chose to not install the bootloader in "Advanced" when I installed Ubuntu. Does this mean that I can't boot Ubuntu from Vista's bootloader, or that I just won't see grub when I first start up?
[16:40] <elli222> anybody using xnest here? i seem to have a problem connecting to myself...
[16:40] <ikonia> user_: the e17 website
[16:40] <lucax> hey guys, is ibex coming with clear intrepid as default gnome-theme?
[16:40] <Slart> F-3000: well.. command line is pretty nice.. I'm using irssi for irc
[16:40] <F-3000> Slart: I discovered that last week.
[16:40] <Slart> lucax: better ask in #ubuntu+1 , that's where the beta people hang
[16:41] <elli222> oh ill go there too
[16:41] <F-3000> Slart: Well, it's useful and stuff, but... if you don't know how to write a script, and want to import your favorite CD as MP3, you're in serious trouble with Kubuntu. :/

[16:41] <lucax> Slart, thanks
[16:42] <dusty-sts> yup usb
[16:42] <Whitor> Hi, I just installed a program... argus ... when I try to run it, it tells me that the program is not installed, I may install it by typing "sudo apt-get install argus-server"   ... which I did, and it told me that it was already installed ... I ran a locate argus and found the executable in /usr/sbin ... but when I try to run it, it still tells me its not installed... whats up ? how do I fix this ?
[16:42] <Slart> lucax: you're welcome
[16:42] <F-3000> Slart: One of the things I love in linux is that you can switch desktops on the run. I succeeded to crash one game, all I needed to do is ctrl+alt+F2 and killall -15 gamename, and switch back.
[16:42] <lobo0> anyone?
[16:42] <ikonia> Whitor ehck your path variable
[16:42] <Whitor> ikonia, where ?
[16:42] <binarymutant> Luis_, type lspci into a terminal
[16:42] <binarymutant> Luis_, and then pastebin it
[16:42] <Luis_> Woah, loads of text.
[16:43] <ikonia> lobo0: sayign anyone is pointless, if they missed the question "anyone" won't help them see it, if they dont' know tha answer saying "anyone" won't make them know it
[16:43] <ikonia> Whitor: echo $PATH
[16:43] <Luis_> Pastebin? Sorry, I'm new to ubuntu.
[16:43] <Slart> F-3000: yup.. I really like that you can almost always ssh from the laptop and kill whatever program is being stubborn
[16:43] <`TonY> Whitor, sudo apt-get install argus-client , if you are trying to do so
[16:43] <lobo0> I chose to not install the bootloader in "Advanced" when I installed Ubuntu. Does this mean that I can't boot Ubuntu from Vista's bootloader, or that I just won't see grub when I first start up?
[16:43] <binarymutant> !pastebin
[16:43] <ikonia> lobo0 the windows boot loader cannot boot linux
[16:43] <outbackwifi> !hi
[16:43] <ikonia> lobo0: it can boot grub
[16:43] <Slart> lobo0: I think so, yes.. I doubt Vista will help you boot ubuntu..
[16:44] <hwilde> is there any way to really debug why livecd dumps to busybox initramfs ?
[16:44] <MTecknology> ikonia: well - after all that - I'm just going to leave grub on my hard drive. I was trying to lock down my laptop but it's coming at the expense of too much battery life....
[16:44] <lobo0> so I have to go back and install grub?
[16:44] <Whitor> ikonia, yeah, that lets me see the $PATH ... hod do I chang eit ?
[16:44] <ikonia> MTecknology ooh really, thats asid
[16:44] <Luis_> This is gonna take aLONG time to copyout..
[16:44] <ikonia> Whitor is /usr/sbin in your path
[16:44] <ikonia> MTecknology "sad"
[16:44] <Whitor> `TonY, I nstalled argus-client aswell ...
[16:44] <F-3000> Slart: GUI crashed while we were talking... :/
[16:44] <ikonia> MTecknology: I ran a test on my laptop and grub went onto the SD card, no problem
[16:44] <Whitor> ikonia, yes it is
[16:44] <Baldr> ciao a tutti
[16:44] <Pici> !it | Baldr
[16:44] <ikonia> Whitor: ok, so ls- la /usr/bin/$program_name
[16:45] <ikonia> Whitor: ok, so ls -la /usr/bin/$program_name
[16:45] <Baldr> Ops sorry english one :D
[16:45] <MTecknology> ikonia: I'm wondering if grub couldn't detect that as a valid drive... maybe my hardware is still too new
[16:45] <oalep> hi, wich command can show mne all my storage units and their sizes in MB
[16:45] <ubunt2> is there a less noisy chatromm to discuss install questions?
[16:45] <Whitor> ikonia, so create a simlink in /usr/bin ?
[16:45] <F-3000> Slart: This is interesting..
[16:45] <ikonia> MTecknology well, that shouldn't be a problem
[16:45] <Slart> F-3000: found something?
[16:45] <bastid_raZor> oalep;  df -h
[16:45] <Whitor> is that whats thats doing ?
[16:45] <outbackwifi> oalep: sudo fdisk -l
[16:45] <ikonia> Whitor: no - I said do "ls -la /usr/sbin/application_name
[16:46] <ikonia> MTecknology: if ubuntu can see it - grub should be able to see it
[16:46] <MTecknology> ikonia: I'm probably doing something wrong. Thanks for helping me though. I appreciate it.
[16:46] <F-3000> Slart: http://pastebin.com/f51e1a606
[16:46] <Whitor> ikonia, he, no you said <ikonia> Whitor: ok, so ls- la /usr/bin/$program_name
[16:46] <ikonia> MTecknology not at all, if you want to try again - say and we'll work thorugh iwth it
[16:46] <MTecknology> ok
[16:46] <ikonia> Whitor I corrected myself the line under it
[16:46] <F-3000> Slart: Line 4 and 5.
[16:46] <ikonia> Whitor: and ls is not a link
[16:47] <MTecknology> I'll remember ya for when I do try again since I most likely will
[16:47] <Whitor> ikonia, in oyur third statement, oyu changfe bin to sbin ...
[16:47] <F-3000> Slart: Line 6 is just saying that I typoed the password after GUI crash, which forced me to re-login.
[16:47] <Slart> F-3000: anacron?
[16:47] <Whitor> changed*
[16:47] <outbackwifi> ubunt2: this is a support channel
[16:47] <ikonia> Whitor ls -la /usr/sbin/$application_name
[16:47] <alexmax> I am trying to compile something on a ubuntu system, and it attempts to grab one too many header files and errors out.  It comes down to this line: #if (HAVE_PGSQL).  How do I ensure that directive fails from my ./configure line?
[16:47] <ikonia> alexmax look at the configure options
[16:47] <alexmax> I dont want to install header files for postgresql since I dont actually use it
[16:48] <Baldr>  ,can someone telle me please the italian ubuntu's IRC ?
[16:48] <alexmax> ikonia: Yeah, but I have no idea if it's called a 'feature' a 'tag' or what
[16:48] <alexmax> I dont know C well enough to be able to tell what that actually is
[16:48] <ikonia> alexmax read throught eh configure script
[16:48] <hwilde> is there any way to really debug why livecd dumps to busybox initramfs ?
[16:48] <alexmax> so I can disable it
[16:48] <alexmax> okay thanks
[16:48] <outbackwifi> alexmax: you will have an option to not install postgresql support for the application you are building
[16:48] <ikonia> alexmax what are you trying to compile ?
[16:48] <IdleOne> !it > Baldr
[16:48] <Whitor> ikonia, that didn't change anything
[16:48] <outbackwifi> alexmax: it should be ./configure --diable-postgres or something
[16:48] <outbackwifi> disable
[16:48] <ikonia> Whitor it shouldn't do
[16:48] <alexmax> Thanks
[16:48] <alexmax> I'll check the configure script
[16:48] <ikonia> Whitor: it should list the permissions on the file
[16:49] <outbackwifi> alexmax: ./configure --help should help you
[16:49] <ikonia> alexmax: what are you actually trying to build/
[16:49] <predator363> Hello all
[16:49] <F-3000> Slart: But what's this? "gdmgreeter[5348]: segfault at 00fe26c8 eip b7ef0bba esp bffe2640 error 6"
[16:49] <outbackwifi> !hi | predator363
[16:49] <Whitor> ikonia, it returned this : lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 2008-10-21 09:54 /usr/sbin/argus -> argus_linux
[16:50] <ikonia> Whitor ok, so it's a symlink so "ls -la /usr/sbin/argus_linux"
[16:50] <aguitel> i have an yahoo e-mail  ,how backup all ?
[16:50] <F-3000> !gdmgreeter
[16:50] <ikonia> aguitel yahoo mail is held on yahoo's servers
[16:50] <Slart> F-3000: I would say that seems more relevant to your crashing =)
[16:51] <F-3000> Slart: Makes more sense than anacron.
[16:51] <Whitor> ikonia, ls: cannot access /usr/sbin/argus_linux: No such file or directory
[16:51] <ikonia> Whitor thats the problem then
[16:51] <aguitel> ikonia, for security i want to make backup for all my emails
[16:51] <Slart> F-3000: the greeter is the thing.. eh.. the thing.. where you write your password, I think
[16:51] <ikonia> aguitel they are held on the yahoo mail server
[16:51] <Whitor> ikonia, but synaptic thinks its installed
[16:51] <predator363> so i ended up accedently stumbleing upon the salvation to my no wifi prob last night. (im on it now) but in trying to fix my scratchy sound i seem to have flubbed my graphics drivers now im in 800x600 and cant change it and have no visual effects. so my question is how do i fix my problem with my vid driver and how do i un doodoo my sound?
[16:51] <ikonia> Whitor the package is installed but the binary isn't
[16:51] <F-3000> Slart: So called "login window".
[16:51] <Whitor> hmm
[16:51] <aguitel> ikonia, if server crash ?
[16:51] <lbci> aguitel, dont know bout personal, but yahoo business accounts have backup in options
[16:52] <Whitor> ikonia, ok, thnaks, I'll look into this
[16:52] <F-3000> Slart: But why it's crash kicks me out from Gnome?
[16:52] <Slart> F-3000: why is it crashing at all
[16:52] <lbci> aguitel, otherwise you have to use pop client with leave messages on server checked...
[16:52] <Luis_> binarymutant: here's the pastebin
[16:52] <Luis_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/60573/
[16:53] <F-3000> Slart: That's another neat question.
[16:53] <TheFiller> Hey, when I'm installing a test version of Ubuntu, (alpha or  beta) and then update it regularely over the internet while the version becomes more and more stable until the alpha becomes the beta and the beta becames a stable version, will I finally get the stable version out of this process or do I have to re-install then?
[16:53] <F-3000> Slart: Is there a log that shows what updates I've done?
[16:53] <aguitel> lbci, i know
[16:53] <Stormx2> How can I disable desktop effects from command line?
[16:53] <Pici> !final | TheFiller you should be fine
[16:53] <Slart> F-3000: I think there's a log for apt in /var/log
[16:53] <aguitel> Stormx2, compiz ?
[16:53] <Stormx2> aguitel: Yes.
[16:53] <aguitel> Stormx2, metacity --replace
[16:54] <TheFiller> thanks Pici
[16:54] <binarymutant> Luis_, are you positive your wire is connected and the internet is on?
[16:54] <aguitel> Stormx2, alt+f2
[16:54] <Luis_> I have a red wire.
[16:54] <Symmetria> is there a command I can issue to a ubuntu box to force it to reboot as if I'd hit the reset buttom
[16:54] <tavish> i am getting permission denied whenever i try to write something on my pen drive. i mount using, sudo mount /dev/sdb /media/stick4 -t vfat -o rw,user
[16:54] <Luis_> And I will brb to reset the modem.
[16:54] <Steve[cug]> anyone here familiar with multipathing on linux?
[16:54] <Slart> Symmetria: sudo reboot doesn't do it for you?
[16:54] <Tuxtony> hit here
[16:54] <ikonia> Steve[cug]: as in fibre - sure
[16:54] <Slart> Symmetria: not sure if you can do a cold reset from software though
[16:55] <aguitel> Stormx2, install fusion-icon frm repo
[16:55] <Steve[cug]> ikonia: I'm having an issue with a SAS 5/E controller
[16:55] <Steve[cug]> ikonia: http://pastebin.com/m49624e66
[16:55] <F-3000> Slart: Is there a command alike tail, that will show me the whole file, not just tail of it?
[16:55] <outbackwifi> F-3000: less filename
[16:55] <Slart> F-3000: cat will show you the whole file
[16:55] <Slart> F-3000: but "less" is much better for big files
[16:55] <Luis_> The iunternet is 100% plugged in.
[16:56] <Luis_> internet*
[16:56] <predator363> should i repost my question or wait. i dont wanna get flamed for doing something wrong again/
[16:56] <outbackwifi> !repeat
[16:57] <hwilde> is there any way to really debug why livecd dumps to busybox initramfs ?
[16:57] <Jeruvy> tavish: see 'man chown'
[16:57] <binarymutant> Luis_, do you know if your router does dhcp?
[16:57] <predator363> so my question is how do i fix my problem with my vid driver and how do i un doodoo my sound?
[16:57] <outbackwifi> predator363: what video card do you have?
[16:57] <predator363> Origional post: so i ended up accedently stumbleing upon the salvation to my no wifi prob last night.

[16:57] <Luis_> binarymuted, I am not sure, how could I check this?
[16:57] <Symmetria> heh echo b >/proc/sysrq-trigger <[16:57] <predator363> outbackwifi: geforce 8200m
[16:58] <Symmetria> I don't suggest typing that if you don't want your box to bounce btw ;p
[16:58] <outbackwifi> predator363: are you using envy?
[16:58] <predator363> noop
[16:58] <outbackwifi> !envy| predator363
[16:58] <predator363> forgot all about envy lol
[16:58] <outbackwifi> predator363: just check what driver your xorg.conf is using?
[16:59] <binarymutant> Luis_, um...every router is different usually you can just go to http://<IP_ADDRESS> or http://<IP_ADDRESS> to check it out
[16:59] <DavidCanarias> jrib: Hi again. Tried what you said I wrote "dvdbackup -M -v" but it just tells me teh ifo, bup menu/dvd/volume  exits will try to overwrite it and nothing else happens? Is that right?
[16:59] <predator363> thats a problem
[16:59] <ikonia> Steve[cug]: what version of ubuntu is this ?
[16:59] <binarymutant> Luis_, how does your laptop connect to the internet?
[16:59] <ikonia> Steve[cug]: where did you get multipahtd ?
[16:59] <ikonia> multipathd /
[16:59] <predator363> outbackwifi: hold on lemme do the paste thing
[16:59] <outbackwifi> k
[16:59] <Luis_> My laptop is connected via wireless.
[16:59] <w0ls0n> anyone here know of any supported SATA addon cards for ubuntu? I don't have any onboard SATA Ports and would like to use a SATA drive.
[16:59] <oalep> how is it called the program to see ext3 partitions in windows?
[16:59] <rahee1> Luis_ some uses <IP_ADDRESS> by default. so check that out also
[16:59] <outbackwifi> oalep: ext2fs
[16:59] <ganes1> like screenshot is it possible to take screen video? if yes how ?
[16:59] <ikonia> w0ls0n 3ware and lsi are the main ones
[16:59] <erUSUL> !ext3
[17:00] <Steve[cug]> ikonia: Ubuntu 8.04.1 and the multipath-tools package was straight from the repos
[17:00] <ikonia> Steve[cug]: 1 cable plugged into each controller ?
[17:00] <Luis_> Im not on my NETGEAR wireless router.
[17:00] <predator363> outbackwifi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/60579/
[17:00] <Steve[cug]> yeah
[17:00] <erUSUL> w0ls0n: most should work
[17:01] <Luis_> I want to connect to the internet via a wire on ubuntu.
[17:01] <outbackwifi> predator363: can you edit files?
[17:01] <ikonia> Steve[cug]: these are fibre ? (I don't know the md3000)
[17:01] <knut_> hi does anybody know a plugin for rhythmbox like coverflow for itunes?
[17:01] <w0ls0n> Luis_, connect it to the ethernet port
[17:01] <predator363> outbackwifi: like how?
[17:01] <w0ls0n> erUSUL, how would I know what does/doesn't work?
[17:01] <outbackwifi> predator363: just add the line Driver  nv in your configured video device section
[17:01] <Luis_> How would I connect the wire to the ethernetport?
[17:01] <Luis_> Imnot good at networks./
[17:01] <outbackwifi> predator363: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.xonf
[17:01] <Steve[cug]> ikonia: no...it's a SAS interface.  Direct-attach
[17:01] <outbackwifi> predator363: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[17:01] <Luis_> [All wires are plugged in already btw]
[17:02] <ikonia> Steve[cug]: ahh sas, sorry you did say
[17:02] <Steve[cug]> ;)
[17:02] <Steve[cug]> np
[17:02] <ikonia> Steve[cug]: so in that case, 1 cable is fine, you don't need a loop
[17:02] <Luis_> Yeah why did you want me to go to the netgear smartwizard?
[17:02] <ikonia> Steve[cug]: let me have a quick poke at that card and array - I don't know that one personally
[17:02] <Luis_> it's Wireless router. I would like to connect in ubuntu through wired.
[17:02] <erUSUL> w0ls0n: http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Hardware/sata.html
[17:02] <binarymutant> Luis_, I dont know the specific of your home network but you should go to whichever router is connected to the internet
[17:03] <predator363> outbackwifi: its open
[17:03] <Steve[cug]> ikonia: np.  the SAS controller act's just like most other HBAs I have played with
[17:03] <MTecknology> ikonia: I'm checking to see how much battery this sucks. I forgot that the calibration is off since I was running a virtual machine from an external drive on battery power a few times. I'll tell ya later if I'm up for finishing the task. :)
[17:03] <akabane> bonsoir
[17:03] <outbackwifi> predator363: scroll down to a section called "Configured Video Device"
[17:03] <LinuxFan> Is there a good, free program that you can create screencasts in Ubuntu? I need something that does more than just records the desktop.
[17:03] <Luis_> binary, I went to that url you told me, but it says it's wireless.
[17:03] <binarymutant> Luis_, and make sure the cables are connected to a router that is connected to the internet
[17:03] <Luis_> Is there a way to connect via wire?
[17:03] <Pici> !screencat | LinuxFan
[17:03] <popey> heh
[17:03] <Pici> !screencast | LinuxFan pardon my spelling
[17:03] <gonzaloaf> hi, I have booted my latpop as a client, but it freezes while the start logo of ubuntu appears, then caps lock led is blinking too, what could be happening_
[17:03] <erUSUL> Luis_: System>Admin>Net
[17:03] <popey> LinuxFan: what else do you want to do?
[17:04] <F-3000> Slart: How I print on screen a content of file from a specific point? Like tail, but ability to determine where it starts.
[17:04] <Luis__> Sorry.
[17:04] <predator363> outbackwifi: it does not say that anywhere
[17:04] <Luis__> Yeah, how do I connect to the internet on ubuntu via a wire?
[17:04] <Luis__> It works fine on XP.
[17:04] <LinuxFan> popey like to be able to add text and stuff (since my mic dont work) and maybe zoom feature
[17:04] <ThexLeopard> i cant run java applets on my computer, i have the ubuntu java plugin and open jdk installed and it still wont work
[17:04] <Luis__> Just doesn't seem to work on ubuntu.
[17:05] <outbackwifi> predator363: can you pastebin the complete file?
[17:05] <w0ls0n> Luis_, is the nic supported in ubuntu?
[17:05] <popey> LinuxFan: unfortunately those features aren't available in any linux screencast systems
[17:05] <LinuxFan> popey for like HOWTO tutorials and what not
[17:05] <LinuxFan> ah ok thanks popey
[17:05] <predator363> sure
[17:05] <popey> LinuxFan: i use xvidcap and recordmydesktop for http://screencasts.ubuntu.com/
[17:05] <Stormx2> Also, looking on getting dvd stuff working. At the moment my drive seems to spin up the dvd for ages, but in the end it can't read it (VLC say main input error: no suitable access module for `dvd:///dev/scd0'). I have libdvdcss installed...
[17:06] <predator363> outbackwifi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/60580/
[17:06] <Slart> F-3000: hmm.. there is "head" to print the first lines of a file, "tail" to print the last lines.. there might be switches to these commands.. also check "man cat" if there are switches for that command
[17:06] <LinuxFan> ok popey ill check into thanks again
[17:06] <outbackwifi> F-3000: you can use head or tail to do that if you know how many lines
[17:06] <burg> if i install ubuntu after windows (dual boot) - when i open my pc i see that screen where it asks me that os to start - how to uninstall ubuntu so, after, it will open windows dirrectly? last time i did that it shown an error page (error loading grub)
[17:06] <binarymutant> Luis_, connect it to your netgear router I guess
[17:06] <F-3000> Slart: pastebinit and find within browser. No?
[17:06] <tavish> i did, sudo chown -hR tavish /media/stick4 it says operation not permitted
[17:06] <Slart> F-3000: that might work too
[17:06] <Luis__> Binary I am using the netgear router.
[17:06] <F-3000> outbackwifi: Thanks. :)
[17:06] <Luis__> That's the thing.
[17:07] <Luis__> If I plug it into the xp laptop
[17:07] <Luis__> i connect via ethernet.
[17:07] <Luis__> but it doesnt seem to work on Ubuntu.
[17:07] <dulak> burg: boot windows and type fdisk /mbr and it will clear grub out of the mbr and only boot windows
[17:07] <binarymutant> Luis_,  but if you plug it into your desktop it doesn't work?
[17:07] <Kr0ntab> Stormx2: commercial DVD's require libdvdcss2... a decryption library...  see medibuntu repository...
[17:07] <Luis__> No.
[17:07] <Luis__> Atleast, I can't get it towork
[17:07] <Kr0ntab> !medibuntu | Stormx2
[17:07] <outbackwifi> predator363: your xorg.conf seems kinda screwed
[17:07] <burg> dulak: type that wherE?
[17:07] <Luis__> On XP it goes: Local Area Network connected.
[17:07] <predator363> outbackwifi: crud
[17:08] <Jeruvy> burg you probably have a boot loader now, see grubs documents for removing.  My experience says it's faster to wipe the disk and start with a fresh install.
[17:08] <Luis__> But on Ubuntu nothing happens.
[17:08] <Scunizi> I'm in panic mode.. I have sda, sdb & sdc on my pc. sdb had several partitions the 1st was WinXP, 2nd=/ for hardy install #1, 3rd=23Gib of storage, 4th=extended, 5th=storage, 6th=/swap.  I tried to resize #3 and it ended with an error. Now I can't boot into my 1st install of Hardy but I can into winXP (with a long delay)... Booting into 2nd install of Hardy takes a while but works. Gparted now only discovers sda1 &2 and sdc.  Sdc is wher
[17:08] <Scunizi> e the 2nd install of Hardy lives. Sda is my /home for the 1st install.  Any help getting sdb working again?
[17:08] <predator363> outbackwifi: how to fix?
[17:08] <mixed1234> anyone knows how to fix the package manager?  I am unable to update and install software
[17:08] <digdug> I can't switch workplaces with effects enabled (ubuntu 8.10 beta)
[17:08] <dulak> burg: boot windows, login as an admin, run the command line then type fdisk /mbr
[17:08] <Pici> !ibex | dulak
[17:08] <tavish> !chmod
[17:08] <Pici> dulak: sorry, that was for digdug
[17:08] <Pici> digdug: Please join #ubuntu+1 for Intrepid/8.10 support/discussion.
[17:08] <burg> dulak: that when i also have windows and ubuntu ?
[17:08] <Tha_Stig> hey guys, anyone know how i can set up what my laptop does when i close the lid?
[17:08] <st_> I have a question. I'm putting XP & ubuntu on a friends computer. He's never used ubuntu/linux before but he's interested. Should I put 8.10 on it or 8.04? He's going to be using basic stuff like internet/music/iPod Thanks a lot.
[17:09] <outbackwifi> predator363: can you recreate it using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[17:09] <linbeee> whats the alternative for fdisk ? in command line
[17:09] <binarymutant> Luis_, thats really strange, I don't think I can help anymore than I have. Have you tried surfing the web because Ubuntu won't say anything about it being connected
[17:09] <dulak> burg: you just asked how to make it only boot windows and uninstall the part where it asks what OS to boot
[17:09] <outbackwifi> predator363: use sudo
[17:09] <erUSUL> linbeee: parted or cfdisk
[17:09] <Luis__> Yeah I have tried surfing the web, it just says "Firefox cannot connect to this server" blahblahblah
[17:09] <outbackwifi> tha_stig:yes
[17:09] <Luis__> the page load error thing
[17:10] <Jeruvy> Luis__: who are you talking to?
[17:10] <predator363> outbackwifi: Package `xserver-xor' is not installed and no info is available.
[17:10] <Luis__> and it cant install the effects from anything
[17:10] <outbackwifi> Luis__: pastebin sudo ifconfig
[17:10] <lbci> st_:8.10 will give better hardware support on newer computers, i personally am using 8.10 with no problems
[17:10] <Luis__> and in the top left it has 2 comps with a exclamation mark
[17:10] <outbackwifi> predator363: xserver-xorg you missed the 'g'
[17:10] <mattgyver83> st_, you should probably install 8.04 right now, then have him updgrade when 8.10 is live.
[17:10] <ganes1> is there any screen recorder for ubuntu?
[17:10] <F-3000> Slart: I don't see anything fancy on the apt log...
[17:10] <linbeee> k thnx but my problem is that fdisk is not showing unpartioned space is there any way to get around that?
[17:10] <burg> no, i asked how to correctly uninstall ubuntu
[17:11] <predator363> outbackwifi: oh yea duh
[17:11] <erUSUL> Luis__: go to system>Admin>Net choose to edit your net card. Disable roaming mode and choose dinamic ip configuration
[17:11] <binarymutant> Luis_, it doesn't make too much sense that windows could connect but ubuntu couldn't, it's the same concept
[17:11] <Luis__> In network I only have Point to point connection
[17:11] <erUSUL> Luis__: then you mast be using a modem an not a router....
[17:12] <erUSUL> !ppp
[17:12] <Luis__> Binary so there's no chance of it not be compatible/.
[17:12] <dulak> burg: to uninstall ubuntu do what I said, but then after the fdisk /mbr, go to admin tools and the disk manager and you can erase the ubuntu partition and format it for windows
[17:12] <erUSUL> !adsl | Luis__
[17:12] <ayilmaz> anybody upgraded to OpenOffice 3.0 in Hardy by using launchpad repos?
[17:12] <Slart> F-3000: why not try reinstalling gdm.. just to see if it fixes the problem, sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm
[17:12] <predator363> outbackwifi: its done
[17:13] <binarymutant> Luis_, standards dont change with the OS
[17:13] <F-3000> Slart: Going to do a test... I'll let the PC idle for some time. If it crashes, it has something to do with anything that triggers after certain time of idling (acpi?).
[17:13] <outbackwifi> predator363: can you now open up xorg.conf in an editor>
[17:13] <Luis__> Erm.
[17:13] <Luis__> When doing sudo pppoeconf
[17:13] <Scunizi> I tried to resize 1 of 5 ext3 partitions on sdb and now sdb is invisible to blkid, fdisk -l and Gparted.. What's up with that?
[17:13] <Luis__> it says no working ethernet card detected.
[17:14] <predator363> outbackwifi: how?
[17:14] <Slart> F-3000: sounds reasonable
[17:14] <Luis__> and that i should run the modconf
[17:14] <Coded1> I have a bluetooth usb dongle with a BroadCom 2035 chipset that I cant get going for the latest version of xubuntu
[17:14] <Coded1> any ideas?
[17:14] <outbackwifi> predator363: like how you did before; sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[17:14] <F-3000> Slart: Good excuse to take a break. :D
[17:14] <binarymutant> Luis_, your not doing pppoeconf, your just trying to pull a dhcp requst, ppp is for modems
[17:14] <outbackwifi> !intrepid| coded1
[17:14] <burg> i`m on windows now, i tried fdisk command, but it sais unknown command
[17:14] <Slart> F-3000: go get some coffee =)
[17:14] <Luis__> Im confused..
[17:14] <dulak> ganes1: there is a great desktop recorder called recordmydesktop, it has a gtk frontend for gnome called gtk-recordmydesktop
[17:15] <Luis__> Right.
[17:15] <Coded1> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[17:15] <Coded1> http://www.debiantutorials.org/talkitup/index.php?topic=1662.0
[17:15] <Coded1> are some that I have tried
[17:15] <FloodBot3> Coded1: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:15] <Luis__> I am using a wired connection.
[17:15] <outbackwifi> Scunizi: your disk just committed harakiri :)
[17:15] <krupa^> hey, where can i get tutorial how to install & use CVS system on ubuntu?
[17:15] <predator363> outbackwifi: oh yea sorry im dumb and barely awake at school
[17:15] <Luis__> How do I connect via wire?
[17:15] <Coded1> sry FloodBot
[17:15] <outbackwifi> Luis__: how do you do that in windows?
[17:15] <predator363> outbackwifi: want me to paste bin it?
[17:15] <outbackwifi> predator363: sure
[17:16] <Luis__> Plug the wire inand it'll say "Local Area Network detected"
[17:16] <Scunizi> outbackwifi, that's what I thought but winXP lives there too and I can still boot to that but not my first install of Hardy. (I have 2 installs of hardy)
[17:16] <Luis__> and itll find the IP,all that, then after about a few seconds or so im connected,.
[17:16] <outbackwifi> !cvs
[17:16] <F-3000> Slart: Now as you mentioned coffee, which I don't drink... Tea sounds tasty.
[17:16] <outbackwifi> Luis__: what version of ubuntu is that?
[17:16] <Luis__> 8.04
[17:16] <Luis__> LTS Desktop.
[17:17] <binarymutant> Luis_, if its plugged up everything should be automatic too, or type sudo dhclient
[17:17] <Luis__> hardy
[17:17] <outbackwifi> Luis__: can you  pastebin sudo ifconfig
[17:17] <predator363> outbackwifi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/60585/

[17:18] <predator363> outbackwifi: hold up lemme re open i
[17:18] <predator363> outbackwifi: k yes its open
[17:18] <outbackwifi> predator363: scroll down to line 41 and insert a new line after that line and type in Driver           "nvidia"
[17:19] <outbackwifi> predator363: before the Option line
[17:19] <outbackwifi> Luis__: have you pastebinned your ifconfig?
[17:19] <Luis__> Im writing it.
[17:19] <predator363> outbackwifi: Identifier	"Configured Video Device"?
[17:20] <outbackwifi> predator363: yes insert a new line below this one
[17:20] <predator363> outbackwifi: and just type nvidia?
[17:20] <Luis__> pastebin:
[17:20] <Luis__> http://paste.ubuntu.com/60586/
[17:20] <outbackwifi> predator363: you dont seem to read too well :) ; type Driver press tab and nvidia
[17:21] <predator363> outbackwifi: lol sorry not while im at school on 3 hours of sleep in 48hrs
[17:21] <predator363> outbackwifi: i typed and saved it
[17:22] <outbackwifi> predator363: restart your X  server by pressinng ctl+alt+backspace
[17:22] <Luis__> Have you read the pastbin?
[17:22] <burg> dulak, ok, i understand
[17:22] <outbackwifi> Luis__: and its not good, your nic is not up
[17:22] <burg> can i use the same command if i have vista?
[17:22] <Luis__> Meaning?
[17:23] <Luis__> can I not connect to the internet because of this "nic" being down?
[17:23] <outbackwifi> Luis__: can you type sudo ifup eth0
[17:23] <F-3000> Slart?
[17:23] <outbackwifi> Luis__: yes
[17:23] <dulak> burg: I am not sure if fdisk /mbr works in vista, I don't use vista
[17:24] <F-3000> What is the most system-taxing games that get installed with default Ubuntu-installation?
[17:24] <krupa^> is SubVersion and cvs are the same?
[17:24] <binarymutant> F-3000, nibbles?
[17:25] <F-3000> binarymutant: Thanks, I'll give it a try.
[17:25] <mixed1234> anyone knows how to reenable GDM?  I installed KDE and now I am unable to shutdown my machine from within GNOME using a GUI
[17:25] <AdamDH> any one know a better wireless tool than network-manager?
[17:25] <alkisg1> Hello, how can I synchronize evolution to an Ericsson Z800 mobile phone? multisync, opensync, openobex...?
[17:25] <outbackwifi> AdamDH: wicd
[17:25] <outbackwifi> !wicd| adamdh
[17:25] <Luis__> Bk.
[17:25] <mixed1234> AdamDH, as far as I know network manager is one of the best around?  what are you trying to accomplish with network manager that you aren't able to?
[17:25] <gonzaloaf_laptop> hi, I have installed the last kernel  2.6.24-21-server but it doesnt created the entries on the grub menu.lst, how can I force it to create the entries?
[17:26] <binarymutant> F-3000, its not really 'taxing' though
[17:26] <Luis__> Ill try re-seating it and if not then I'll just get another card.
[17:26] <outbackwifi> Luis__: what was the output of the sudo ifup etho?
[17:26] <binarymutant> Luis__, it actually recognizes your card you dont need to reseat it
[17:26] <Luis__> says
[17:26] <Luis__> Oh,so does that mean the card is broke?
[17:27] <outbackwifi> Luis__: did you mean reset when you said reseat?
[17:27] <Luis__> No. I meant reseat.
[17:27] <binarymutant> Luis__, no it doesnt mean it its broke, it means it's fine
[17:27] <Luis__> Hm...So why isn't it working?
[17:27] <binarymutant> Luis__, dunno, when you did lspci it showed up
[17:27] <jim_p> !upgrade
[17:28] <Luis__> Wtf.
[17:28] <Luis__> Yeah.
[17:28] <Luis__> So what is the reason any POSSIBLE reason I cant connect?
[17:28] <AdamDH> wifi manager will not connect to our cisco based wlan network that is secure with wpa, TKIP, AES CCM
[17:28] <AdamDH> *secured
[17:28] <wishie> is it safe (in hardy) to remove hotkey-setup ? ie, is HAL matured enough to hardy to cover the tasks of hotkey-setup ?
[17:29] <AJC_Z0> What is a simple way to get Update Manager to stop stealing focus?
[17:29] <binarymutant> Luis__, I'm still thinking your not plugged up right, pastebin sudo lsmod and then i can narrow it down
[17:29] <Luis__> binary.
[17:29] <Luis__> are you crazy?
[17:30] <Luis__> lsmod is humungous
[17:30] <Luis__> I cant write that out!
[17:30] <binarymutant> dont type it, just copy paste
[17:30] <Luis__> I cant.
[17:30] <binarymutant> ?
[17:30] <Luis__> 2 different computers.
[17:30] <binarymutant> Luis__, lol nm i forgot
[17:30] <Luis__> Lol
[17:30] <Vonor> hi
[17:31] <F-3000> binarymutant: Looks like...
[17:31] <Luis__> Any SPECIFIC info on the ls command you needed?
[17:31] <outbackwifi> AdamDH: i am able to connect to wpa networks   using network manager
[17:32] <Luis__> brb
[17:32] <AdamDH> ah so might be an issue with network manager then
[17:33] <Luis__> bk
[17:33] <AdamDH> how do I go about using Wicd in intrepid ibex?
[17:33]  * omolina is back (gone 05:01:47)
[17:33]  * outbackwifi its actually a program called wpa_supplicant that does this in the background
[17:33] <Pici> !intrepid | AdamDH
[17:33] <outbackwifi> AdamDH: are you on intrepid?
[17:33] <binarymutant> Luis__, give me a sec

[17:35] <aflack> hey can someone help me install java for firefox in ubuntu 8.04? im having trouble..
[17:35] <Luis__> k
[17:35] <Vonor> am on kubuntu 8.10 beta and noticed two flaws: #1 I got an atheros wlan card and the udev setup tries to load both, the kernel based ath5k driver and the atheros hal driver (ath_pci, ath_hal etc etc), fixed that by blacklisting the ath5k module (which doesn't work for my card)          #2: klogd starts dd as childprocess to write the logfile (odd enough!) and uses 50% cpu time -which is in my case 100% of one of the cores I got on my cpu
[17:35] <unop> !8.10 | Vonor
[17:35] <Luis__> dmesg|grep AMDdoes nothing
[17:36] <jedimindtrick> hey... i had a power outage and ubuntu shut down unexpectedly, now that i booted back up - i dont see any icons on my desktop .... any ideas?

[17:41] <Luis__> yes?
[17:41] <ThexLeopard> outbackwifi, any java runtime environment
[17:41] <Luis__> I have the wire in the router downstairs.
[17:41] <aflack> Neaai: uh well what do you mean by dangerous
[17:41] <Luis__> any other wires i should no about?
[17:41] <outbackwifi> ThexLeopard: you mean it wont get installed?
[17:42] <dinamizador> por favor necesito ayuda
[17:42] <Neaai> aflack: instead of "su -" (root-password)   try  "sudo bash" (personal password)
[17:42] <sudobash> Are there back doors in Ubuntu for Government use, which would be for spying?
[17:42] <schmidtm> !es
[17:42] <aflack> Neaai: is that dangerous?
[17:42] <binarymutant> Luis__, I guess, the cat5 connects to your pc and router, everything else is automatic if your using dhcp
[17:42] <predator363> outbackwifi: whatever we did killed my x server to death and i had to boot in recovery mode and do an xrestore
[17:42] <ThexLeopard> outbackwifi, they all install fine, i can select them all as the default fine, but they wont run java applets
[17:42] <Luis__> so theres something else that might not be plugged in?
[17:42] <dulak> Neaai, aflack: the correct usage would be sudo su -
[17:42] <Coded1> sudobash: of course
[17:42] <Neaai> aflack: Not dangerous per-se. But it will put you in administrator powers with which you can easily mess things up if you err.
[17:43] <outbackwifi> predator363: if your xserver goes down, you dont have to boot in recovery, login into text mode and just modify xorg again
[17:43] <Neaai> dulak: What's the gain with that form of usage ?
[17:43] <binarymutant> Luis__, if your not using dhcp you would have had to manually set up your networking in windows
[17:43] <Luis__> brb
[17:43] <jamus> howdy folks
[17:43] <Luis__> ill ask my dad
[17:43] <aflack> Neaai: wait one second...  neaai do you think you can pm me this text is hurting my eyes + i have a headache
[17:43] <outbackwifi> ThexLeopard: what do you get when you type java -version in a terminal
[17:43] <predator363> outbackwifi: oh well im still stuc in 800x600 with scratchy sound and no visual effects *cry's*
[17:43] <dulak> Neaai: sudo bash doesn't give you a full login, so for instance ~ would still be pointing to your user home directory and not /root
[17:44] <dulak> Neaai: sudo su - gives you a full root environment
[17:44] <Neaai> aflack: But here it's so all the others can see and also so someone else can offer ideas too.
[17:44] <outbackwifi> predator363: did you run your nvidia configure utility on it?
[17:44] <kesi> hi all, anyone got a sec to help a wine-newbie install something?  I keep running into issues.
[17:44] <predator363> outbackwifi: lemme try again and see if it will work now
[17:44] <sudobash> so if there were back doors potentially all we have to do is find them in the code...
[17:44] <outbackwifi> predator363: just change the nvidia to nv and it should work fine (inside xorg.conf)
[17:44] <dtolj> kesi: are you using crossover office?
[17:44] <aflack> Neaai: well, im probably just doing something wrong, as i already think i am instead of it not working i think im doing it wrong... if we run out of ideas cant we just switch back to public?
[17:44] <Luis__> ill just try a network test.
[17:45] <Luis__> ill disconnect.
[17:45] <Luis__> ok?
[17:45] <ThexLeopard> outbackwifi, http://paste.ubuntu.com/60591/
[17:45] <kesi> dtolj, not sure what that is.. I'm on HH using wine to install a DVR remote software
[17:45] <rrenaud> i just installed 8.04, but it doesn't seem to want to play sounds from both the browser and pidgin at the same time, is there an easy fix?
[17:45] <jamus> kesi:  speak man
[17:45] <codeblue> can someone here pleas help me
[17:45] <codeblue> rtorrent wont report the correct stats or running time to my trackers
[17:45] <codeblue> Iv spent 2 days configuring rtorrent and wtorrent and dont want to have to change client
[17:45] <jamus> kesi:  or woman ...
[17:45] <kesi> jamus, on HH trying to install and SDVR remote software under wine. woman.
[17:45] <dtolj> kesi: it may not be supported
[17:45] <Neaai> aflack: Before the installation, instead of doing "su"  do  "sudo su"
[17:45] <aflack> ok one second
[17:45] <outbackwifi> ThexLeopard: launch firefox from the terminal and try to browse some site with the java applets; if it doesnt work, see the messages on the terminal
[17:45] <Neaai> aflack: and then continue as stated in the docs
[17:46] <user_> what is dmraid
[17:46] <user_> ?
[17:46] <aflack> got it, see i told you i was doing it wrong lol
[17:46] <predator363> outbackwifi: it seems to be all crudded up again
[17:46] <ikonia> user_ a tasty fake raid technology
[17:46] <lucapost> hi all!
[17:46] <outbackwifi> predator363: how?
[17:46] <ikonia> user_: avoid at all costs (in my view) if posible
[17:46] <aflack> Neaai:  now where do i install to? and which package should i dl from the java site..
[17:46] <outbackwifi> !hi | lucapost
[17:46] <kesi> jamus, dtolj I run "wine setup_file.exe" and the setup for the program launches and seems to go through but then a cmd window comes up scrolling over and over again and I think it's prompting me to overwrite c:\Program but I can't read it.
[17:46] <user_> sudo mount /dev/sda2/
[17:46] <user_> $MFTMirr does not match $MFT (record 0).
[17:46] <user_> Failed to mount '/dev/sda2': Input/output error
[17:46] <user_> NTFS is either inconsistent, or you have hardware faults, or you have a
[17:46] <user_> SoftRAID/FakeRAID hardware. In the first case run chkdsk /f on Windows
[17:46] <user_> then reboot into Windows TWICE. The usage of the /f parameter is very
[17:47] <FloodBot3> user_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:47] <Neaai> aflack: hold on I check
[17:47] <predator363> outbackwifi: not sure maybe when i fixed the xserver but now even when i boot up i have to log in via command prompt and type startx
[17:47] <kesi> jamus, dtolj,  should I be using sudo?
[17:47] <ThexLeopard> ok outbackwifi java seems to be loading some applets but not the one i actually need
[17:47] <predator363> outbackwifi: erhrhm sudo startx
[17:47] <outbackwifi> ThexLeopard: it isnt that choosy :)
[17:48] <user_> how can i run chkdsk /f from ubuntu ? or is there a utility that can do just the same?
[17:48] <predator363> outbackwifi: lemme see i think i have an idea to fix my xorg
[17:48] <ikonia> user_ you can't
[17:48] <ikonia> user_: you need to boot into windows
[17:48] <outbackwifi> predator363: this usually happens if gdm doesnt start; sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart should help
[17:48] <user_> i don't have
[17:48] <ThexLeopard> outbackwifi, i know its not o; it must be a problem with the university, never a quick fix for anything, tah anyway
[17:48] <user_> windows
[17:48] <ikonia> user_ then why do you have ntfs data ?
[17:49] <user_> and i can't mount my ntfs partition
[17:49] <user_> i had windoes
[17:49] <user_> windows
[17:49] <user_> let me explain
[17:49] <jedimindtrick> hey... i had a power outage and ubuntu shut down unexpectedly, now that i booted back up - i dont see any icons on my desktop .... any ideas?
[17:49] <aflack> Neaai: done checking lol?
[17:49] <predator363> outbackwifi: nah man i cant figure it out/ why wouldent gdm start?
[17:49] <kesi> jamus, dtolj, the scrolling text reads: "C\Program (Y/N)?Overwrite C:\Program..."
[17:49] <user_> i have a 80 gb sata seagate drive, this was devided in 2 partitions c: 10gb and d: 70gb
[17:49] <ikonia> user_: well you need to boot into windows to run windows disk tools
[17:49] <Luis_> all works.
[17:49] <Neaai> aflack: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html
[17:50] <outbackwifi> Luis__: what did you do?
[17:50] <Luis_> I connected to the internet via the same cable just now.
[17:50] <user_> i installed ubuntu over windows partition
[17:50] <Luis_> on xp.
[17:50] <user_> so i don';t have windows
[17:50] <predator363> outbackwifi: it sais i'm missing the section device  configure video device but i dont know where to put it to try and fix it
[17:50] <Luis_> and it worked,but in ubuntu it doesnt.,
[17:50] <Neaai> aflack: you want the JRE. Running environment
[17:50] <Luis_> it just has 2 screens with an exclamation mark
[17:50] <jamus> kesi:  well ... im not really familiar with the app ur trying to install but as general help i suggest u go to http://appdb.winehq.org/ and look up the compatibility issues
[17:50] <aflack> dling
[17:51] <aflack> i thought there was java 6 or 7 not 2?
[17:51] <Luis_> Is it 100% not incompatibilities?
[17:51] <kesi> jamus, well... should I be installing under wine using sudo?
[17:51] <jamus> kesi: wait a sec
[17:51] <F-3000> Slart: So far so good.
[17:51] <outbackwifi> predator363: didnt you just have that?
[17:51] <aflack> Neaai: i thought there was java 6 or 7 not 2?
[17:51] <binarymutant> Luis_, on your windows machine pastebin your ipconfig
[17:51] <Flecha2> Hello! I had a problem installing Fluxbuntu. The installer didnt intalled grub. I dont know why. But I have another linux installed in the same machine, so I edited the menu.lst of it so I could load Fluxbuntu. Added these lines: "title fluxbuntu" "root (hd0,5)" "kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=/dev/sda6 ro quiet splash" "initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.22-14-generic" Fluxbuntu is installed in the first of the exte
[17:51] <rrenaud> i just installed 8.04, but it doesn't seem like i can get sound to play in both pidgin and firefox at the sametime
[17:52] <Slart> F-3000: ok.. so you've got a computer that doesn't crash when you leave it alone =)
[17:52] <Neaai> aflack: I think it is a difference between java runtime and java develop
[17:52] <predator363> outbackwifi: my brain just exploded i dunno what i did lets start over lol
[17:52] <Slart> F-3000: did you change anything since the last crash?
[17:52] <F-3000> Slart: Leaving it alone doesn't crash it.
[17:52] <Luis_> Omg.
[17:52] <jamus> kesi: is ur ubu running on  different partition then windows couse when it asks overwrite there is a slight  chance thet u erase something important
[17:52] <aflack> well ill dl the one you gave me one second
[17:52] <Luis_> I cant copy and paste it.
[17:52] <F-3000> Slart: Done only updating.
[17:52] <Neaai> aflack: But why not use the .deb package for that in the repository ?
[17:52] <Luis_> btw you see when i do ipconfig
[17:52] <binarymutant> Luis_, why not?
[17:52] <F-3000> Slart: I'm starting to think that noapic with *installed* Ubuntu caused the crashes.
[17:52] <Luis_> doesthat have to be the wireless enabled
[17:53] <Luis_> or with wire enabled?
[17:53] <aflack> Neaai: when i tried installing it like that it said something about wrong structure
[17:53] <binarymutant> Luis_, wire
[17:53] <Luis_> kk
[17:53] <Hexbomber> Okay.. so this is a really bizzare problem I have been having. I got it to work, then pushed my luck.. and now I am back to square one. I have a dell 1525 with the Broadcom 1505 Wireless N Mini card, and when connecting to my school's wireless nothing happens. I can see the network in the top right hand corner, when I connect it says connected, and theres good signal strength.. but nothing else happens. I can't ping anything, and I can't
[17:53] <Hexbomber> access any websites..
[17:53] <Luis_> ima d/c again.
[17:53] <Hexbomber> any ideas?
[17:53] <jamus> generally u just use the windows installer and it works fine try to stay out of commandlines when possible
[17:53] <Neaai> aflack: Normally, the installer will put a file in your home directory somewhere where firefox/iceweasel will look for it. That's all.
[17:53] <user_> what's the command for unmount?
[17:53] <jedimindtrick> Hexbomber: i used to run a company called hexabomb
[17:53] <Neaai> user_: umount
[17:53] <rrenaud> user_: umount
[17:53] <ikonia> user_ umount
[17:54] <user_> k
[17:54] <F-3000> Slart: But what I do wonder, is that why the CD-ROM's light is flashing? It's almost unnoticeable. Drive's empty.
[17:54] <aflack> Neaai: err okay?
[17:54] <Luis__> bk
[17:54] <Luis__> right.
[17:54] <aflack> Neaai: It wont let me install from the package installer thing it said wrong structure i cannot click anything besides cancel
[17:54] <Luis__> i cant copy things fromcmd.
[17:54] <aflack> Neaai: do i want rpm or normal to download?
[17:54] <ikonia> Luis__ what is the error
[17:54] <Luis__> nothing
[17:55] <Luis__> just cant select the txt.
[17:55] <ikonia> aflack you can't use rpm's on ubuntu
[17:55] <F-3000> Slart: Also, I'm doing the installs in 1-10Mb bursts, not all at once.
[17:55] <Neaai> aflack: then try the one you got from the java site.
[17:55] <predator363> outbackwifi: ok lets start one step at a time, earlyer today i was trying to fix the sound on my lappy fallowing a instructional forum i deleated the acpi thread and reinstated it then restarted when i did so i had no audio i was stuck in 800x600 video and my login gui wouldent start i was ticked
[17:55] <ikonia> aflack: what is wrong with java from the ubuntu repo
[17:55] <binarymutant> Luis_, try holding shift down
[17:55] <Flecha2> Hexbomber: Are you using ndiswrapper?
[17:55] <Slart> F-3000: sounds weird
[17:55] <Neaai> aflack: the normal. The rpm is for some other distros.
[17:55] <aflack> Neaai: ok i dont know i tried playing a game, and it said instal java and it gave  me the site link
[17:56] <ikonia> aflack: java is in the ubuntu repos
[17:56] <ikonia> aflack: open synaptic and search for "java" and install the package you want
[17:56] <predator363> outbackwifi: and the only thing iv been able to fix is the sound i got it back but its still all scratchy
[17:56] <Flecha2> Hexbomber: I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 and have just installed the driver. Its working here
[17:56] <Jeruvy> I noticed before last week that any tiny images I saved were thumbnailed in a ZOOM display mode.  A patch fixed this and now the images are displaying normal size, however I still have a 'boundary' that is the original size.  How do you fix this?
[17:56] <outbackwifi> predator363: ok, first thing to check is whether your xorg is using the right driver
[17:56] <jamus> kesi:  u still here?
[17:56] <Neaai> ikonia: for some reason he said it said something about a "wrong structure"
[17:56] <F-3000> Slart: I succeeded to screw up the very first Kubuntu install by doing "full update". What screwed it, was that the updater crashed in midway, and left ALL packets as if they'd be updated.
[17:56] <kesi> jamus, sorry
[17:56] <ikonia> Neaai: Id' get the exact error, as he's not making much sense
[17:56] <jamus> kesi:  its fine
[17:56] <kesi> jamus, I have windows running on a separate partition
[17:56] <outbackwifi> predator363: if you can pastebin /var/og/Xorg.0.log that could be a start
[17:57] <aflack> which one do i install there is hella lot more than just java showing up
[17:57] <mrunagi> how do you save a file in nano i cant ever remember
[17:57] <Neaai> ikonia: is the package name "default-jre" ?
[17:57] <ikonia> !java > aflack
[17:57] <F-3000> Slart: I had to do reinstall after it.
[17:57] <ikonia> Narfi: I think so, pm I've just sent him will expalin it all
[17:57] <aflack> already saw that
[17:57] <maniheer> mrunagi, Ctrl + O
[17:57] <LinuxFan> mrunagi ctrl+O
[17:57] <mrunagi> thank you
[17:57] <ikonia> aflack: what part is not clear ?
[17:57] <maniheer> LinuxFan, HAHA

[17:58] <Neaai> !java
[17:58] <F-3000> Slart: If using Ubuntu comes out as success, I'm going to abandon Kubuntu. Just as my father did. :D
[17:58] <Luis__> thats the ipconfig on windows.
[17:58] <jamus> kesi:  use add remove to install wine and then take windows app installer and double click it  and it should work
[17:58] <predator363> outbackwifi: no such file it sais
[17:58] <aflack> hold on i have a headache im not sure what part is not clear alls i am rtrying to do is play a damn game on java, whenever  i tried the jgi whatever plugin it just closed when it tried to load something java
[17:58] <cedriczg> F-3000, if I am not wrong you can try sudo apt-get install --fix-broken
[17:58] <kesi> jamus, reinstall wine?
[17:58] <jamus> kesi:  but check for compatibility first to be sure
[17:59] <bibi__> I pushed on media direct button :(
[17:59] <outbackwifi> predator363: look in /var/log/Xorg*
[17:59] <F-3000> cedriczg: could have helped half year ago... :) But I'll write that down, so thanks. :)
[17:59] <binarymutant> Luis_, okay on your ubuntu pc go to System->Preference->network configuration
[18:00] <cedriczg> F-3000, what do you mean? now it won't help?
[18:00] <Luis__> there is no network config
[18:00] <Luis__> just network proxy
[18:00] <bya> Hello everyone !
[18:00] <cedriczg> bya, hello

[18:00] <maniheer> i'm bored anyway
[18:00] <F-3000> cedriczg: I had that problem with my very first Kubuntu/Linux installation, which happened over half year ago. :)
[18:00] <cedriczg> bya, ask what you want
[18:00] <binarymutant> Luis_, is it in administration?
[18:01] <aflack> Neaai: which one??
[18:01] <maniheer> Kubuntu 7.10 puxed with bugs
[18:01] <cedriczg> F-3000, ok, I got it ;)
[18:01] <Neaai> aflack: j2re-1_4_2_18-linux-i586.bin
[18:01] <jamus> kesi:  im out for a smoke brb
[18:01] <bya> Well, here is the thing (I am french but in #ubuntu-fr it seems to be people-less), one of my friend came to my home today, and i told him i will help him
[18:01] <maniheer> jamus, smoking = bad for health
[18:01] <binarymutant> outbackwifi, the driver showed up though, and it shows in lspci...
[18:01] <F-3000> cedriczg: Now I'm installing (and testing) Ubuntu.
[18:01] <aflack> Neaai: ok i just started to dl that to my desktop
[18:01] <predator363> outbackwifi: also is envy a good choice and how do i get it running everytime i try to install it, it doesent want to install
[18:01] <bya> His issue is the following one : He turns on his computer, but he gets no signal
[18:02] <Berto> Hi - My firefox automatically downloads PDF files.  How do I make it give me the CHOICE again?
[18:02] <cedriczg> F-3000, which version?
[18:02] <aflack> Neaai: ok its dled...
[18:02] <outbackwifi> predator363: your xserver is using the vesa driver
[18:02] <maniheer> bya, on the screen?
[18:02] <predator363> outbackwifi: how do i fix that?
[18:02] <bya> maniheer, Yeah, not even the Nvidia logo
[18:02] <Neaai> aflack: Put that in a directory in your homedir and execute it.
[18:03] <aflack> Neaai: one second
[18:03] <maniheer> bya, is ur PC alive?
[18:03] <cedriczg> bya, you tried the live CD?
[18:03] <Luis__> Help?
[18:03] <maniheer> tried another monitor
[18:03] <outbackwifi> predator363: can you do an ls -l of /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers and pastebin that?
[18:03] <bya> yeah it is alive
[18:03] <kesi> jamus, I installed utorrent with no problem.
[18:03] <binarymutant> Luis_, is it in administration?
[18:03] <outbackwifi> predator363: need to check if you have the nvidia driver at all
[18:03] <aflack> Neaai: you cant execute .bin...
[18:03] <F-3000> cedriczg: 8.04. Tho, I'm a bit sceptic regarding that version number, as when I updated Kubuntu from 7.10 to it, it basically broke the Kubuntu (-> reinstall....). Most problematic with that was, that it wasn't my laptop.
[18:03] <cedriczg> bya, Est-ce que tu as esayé le live CD?
[18:04] <Neaai> aflack: that's an executable. Do:   chmod u+x that.file.bin  ;   ./that.file.bin
[18:04] <Neaai> aflack: (replace "that.file.bin" with the name of the .bin file)
[18:04] <bya> Cause when he reboots (by shutting down electricity) it tells me that the pc shutted down by the wrong way, and that it has to go threw bios
[18:04] <cedriczg> F-3000, I am using ubuntu 8.04 and I'm happy with it since june. What laptop do you have if I may know?
[18:04] <F-3000> cedriczg: You have any idea, why the cd-drive's light keeps flickering?
[18:04] <bya> And setup everything again
[18:04] <predator363> outbackwifi: i have i installed the driver and had it working untill i fallowed that forum
[18:05] <predator363> outbackwifi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/60601/

[18:05] <luis9955> sorry where was we?
[18:05] <aflack> Neaai:  wait, do i need to navigate to the dir?
[18:05] <Neaai> MTecknology: I'm just used this way. it's a habbit
[18:05] <aflack> Neaai: of where the file is?
[18:05] <F-3000> cedriczg: My laptop's museum-type; 266MHz HP, which can't even boot livecd. But my friend's laptop is Asus. I'll give you a link for some things I wrote...
[18:05] <Neaai> aflack: yes where you installed it
[18:05] <outbackwifi> predator363: you do have nvidia driver that seems to be dated 10 oct
[18:06] <aflack> Neaai: i havent installed it yet lol..
[18:06] <luis9955> Hello?
[18:06] <Neaai> aflack: downl'd it, sorry
[18:06] <cedriczg> bya, non je suis d'Uruguay. Mais je parle francais aussi
[18:06] <aflack> Neaai: ok one sec..
[18:06] <MTecknology> Neaai: I do that too, but I take the assumption people don't understand it and may screw something up :P
[18:06] <binarymutant> luis9955, is it in administration? if not try sudo ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS>
[18:06] <F-3000> cedriczg: I lied about the livecd-thing. It CAN boot Fluxbuntu and DSL.
[18:06] <kesi> jamus, well it seems like it's a problem with the program I am trying to run.. I guess I'll just install it on the windows partition and have to boot into windows to run it.
[18:06] <cedriczg> F-3000, ok
[18:06] <outbackwifi> predator363: ok now you need to open up xorg.conf and add the driver line again; this time pastebin it after youve done it so i can check
[18:06] <luis9955> in administration i have:
[18:06] <TJ-42> if I want to give a php application the ability to create, write, and read files in a directory, is "www-data" the user I need to give read and write permissions to for the directory?
[18:06] <luis9955> Network
[18:06] <bya> cedriczg, je lui ai dit (puisqu'il s'agit de mon copain) de booter à partir du live CD  mais pour l'instant j'attends toujours le résultat
[18:06] <luis9955> Network Tools
[18:06] <F-3000> cedriczg: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/F3000
[18:06] <outbackwifi> !fr | bya
[18:06] <Neaai> MTecknology: guess I'd better be careful as well. :)
[18:06] <dulak> TJ-42: if that's the user apache is running as, yes
[18:06] <aflack> k and whats the code?
[18:07] <luis9955> Is it either of them?
[18:07] <binarymutant> luis9955, are you in gnome or kde?
[18:07] <bya> outbackwifi, i can speak english, this isn't a matter
[18:07] <maniheer> bya, is the battery on the motherboard on properly?
[18:07] <Neaai> aflack: code ?
[18:07] <luis9955> Erm..
[18:07] <TJ-42> dulak: that's the default, right? and there shouldn't be anything else to do, right?
[18:07] <dulak> TJ-42: and on ubuntu that's the user apache runs as, so yes
[18:07] <luis9955> How can I check?
[18:07] <TJ-42> ok thanks :-)
[18:07] <aflack> Neaai: to make it executable
[18:07] <TJ-42> obviously I'm messing up somewhere else then :-)
[18:07] <bya> maniheer, How can i possibly know that?
[18:07] <binarymutant> luis9955, nm, just try sudo ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS>
[18:07] <maniheer> open it up :D
[18:07] <dulak> TJ-42: you want rwx on directory, rw on files
[18:07] <cedriczg> bya, donc tu dois attendre et apres tu peut posser la le probleme a nouveau (j'en ai pas d'accent grave ici :P )
[18:07] <jamus> kesi:  that should  work
[18:07] <Neaai> aflack: try this:   bash ./name.of.file.bin
[18:08] <bya> maniheer, it ent like that suddainly, i think there is no hardware isues, is there?
[18:08] <dulak> TJ-42: you can just sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /path/to/directory
[18:08] <maniheer> bya, its a wrist watch looking round battery
[18:08] <predator363> outbackwifi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/60603/
[18:08] <spree> Why isn't the latest version of PHP available in apt-get?   It's a dvr software to check on my business and I need to come up with some way to view it without rebooting everytime
[18:08] <Neaai> aflack: this is shorter and saver
[18:08] <bya> cedriczg, ok
[18:08] <aflack> Neaai: i am ....
[18:08] <Neaai> safer*
[18:08] <csilk> spree, ubuntu has thousands of packages it's hard to keep them all 100% upto date
[18:08] <luis9955> Says no such device.
[18:08] <Neaai> aflack: exit root first
[18:09] <mrunagi_> can u run xfce in parallel with gnome or kde and select it only when you need it?
[18:09] <maniheer> csilk, it should keep some up to date
[18:09] <aflack> Neaai: but the instructions said sudo su then password?
[18:09] <outbackwifi> predator363: another thing is that the monitor refresh rates that you have there dont support any mode higher than 800x600
[18:09] <csilk> maniheer,  we do keep many uptodate
[18:09] <Neaai> aflack: do this as a user first. Then when you succeed, do it for all user as root.
[18:09] <csilk> but like I said, there are tens of thousands
[18:09] <jamus> kesi:  wine is a windows emulator which is good for some stuff but a lot of programs mainly the more ''heavy'' ones will not work on it as they require some functions not found on it
[18:09] <dulak> mrunagi_: yes, if you install gnome and xfce and kde all together, they just become sessions you can choose at the login screen
[18:09] <predator363> outbackwifi: ?!?!?!?!? how do i fix that?
[18:09] <aflack> Neaai:how do i exit root
[18:09] <Neaai> aflack: exit  :p
[18:09] <binarymutant> luis9955, try ifup eth0
[18:10] <luis9955> says failed to open. acess denied.
[18:10] <kesi> jamus, it's a pretty small java based client.. I thought it should work
[18:10] <Orbixx> Simple question. What's the default terminal font?
[18:10] <outbackwifi> predator363: do you know what monitor you have? is it branded?
[18:10] <binarymutant> luis9955, my bad sudo ifup eth0
[18:10] <maniheer> Orbixx, Crap
[18:10] <maniheer> :P
[18:10] <abstortedminds> how would i get something similar for this to work in ubuntu:  hotkeys for german characters:  http://german.about.com/library/blcomp_dekey1.htm
[18:10] <spree> cs278 Well yeah but PHP is pretty darn important to keep up to date due to the nature of it being used with Apache on every Ubuntu webserver
[18:10] <aflack> Neaai: ok finally now tell me tha command one last time lol
[18:10] <ThisIsMeAndN> Hi all. I have an ISO file I want to burn using the Live CD, however when I try to eject the Live CD, I can't. I right click on the drive and go to Eject but it tells me there's probably no media...
[18:10] <luis9955> says "ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0."
[18:10] <predator363> outbackwifi: i have a 1080p 15.4'' lcd compaq with no model number on it as its build into my lapppy
[18:10] <mrunagi_> does xfce automatically disable composite like compiz?
[18:10] <Neaai> aflack: hmm.. it's:   bash  ./name.of.the.file.bin
[18:11] <csilk> spree,  Yes I agree, what version is in the repo at the moment, and are you on hardy or intrepid?
[18:11] <ThisIsMeAndN> I've tried eject /dev/cdrom which does work, however inserting a blank doesn't detect so I can't proceed
[18:11] <jadedoto> ThisIsMeAndN: You can't eject the LiveCD while using it to run the system.
[18:11] <maniheer> !xfce | mrunagi_
[18:11] <aflack> neaai: without the periods besides .bin im guessing?
[18:11] <abstortedminds> hi Pulpie
[18:11] <noxo> Hi
[18:11] <Pulpie> abstortedminds: hey
[18:11] <ThisIsMeAndN> jadedoto: oh. So is there anything I can do to get this ISO burned?
[18:11] <luis9955> says its ingoring the unknown interface
[18:11] <maniheer> !hi | abstortedminds
[18:11] <Neaai> aflack: with
[18:12] <Neaai> aflack: put the ./  at front
[18:12] <spree> csilk: the version for Hardy is 5.2.4 and the current version of PHP available on php.net is 5.2.6
[18:12] <aflack> Neaai: so i need to add periods to the file name??
[18:12] <Pulpie> abstortedminds: can I help you with something?
[18:12] <jadedoto> ThisIsMeAndN: Burn it with the host OS you have running, or if you are booted into the LiveCD and trying to burn the ISO there, use a different drive than you have the LiveCD in
[18:12] <bingungaja> hello, can i browse my other PC windows vista with my notebook ubuntu through bluetooth ?
[18:12] <aflack> Neaai: o...
[18:12] <outbackwifi> predator363: oh a laptop :) ok just safely delete all the lines inside the "monitor" section and add this one line -> Identifier      "Configured Monitor"
[18:12] <cedriczg> F-3000, well you have a similar laptop to mine
[18:12] <Neaai> aflack: bash: ./file-name.bin
[18:12] <abstortedminds> pulpie, you must be a someone with the same nicck as someone i know
[18:12] <csilk> spree,  in the next release of Ubuntu (end of month) php will be upgraded to 5.2.6. you can get this now via the hardy backports if you wish
[18:12] <spree> csilk on a security audit, Nessus reports numerous red flag security flaws if a server is not using 5.2.6 and these are flaws which can potentially obtain root
[18:12] <maniheer> i thought he meant people, THERE's A pulpie in here!!!
[18:12] <F-3000> cedriczg: You got oldie-goldie too? :P
[18:12] <cedriczg> F-3000, I have an HP dv6701us
[18:13] <csilk> spree,  please see my previous post
[18:13] <Pulpie> abstortedminds: I might be why?
[18:13] <Pulpie> maniheer: lol
[18:13] <ThisIsMeAndN> jadedoto: The host OS is fried. The ISO is a backup of all of the data that I need. The system is a laptop with only one burner... so I guess that means I can't do anything, right?
[18:13] <Nt_nT> !desklets
[18:13] <binarymutant> luis9955, hrm right click on the computer in your tray
[18:13] <Pulpie> abstortedminds: your name reminds me of someone...
[18:13] <abstortedminds> wondering how i get this to work http://german.about.com/library/blcomp_dekey1.htm on ubuntu
[18:13] <F-3000> cedriczg: Ah. Well, as I mentioned earlier, my laptop's 266MHz HP. The two laptops mentioned on the page aren't mine. :)
[18:13] <jadedoto> ThisIsMeAndN: Use the liveCD to make a liveUSB image
[18:13] <noxo> not sure
[18:13] <cedriczg> F-3000, I wouldn't say it's oldie. But I know it's not one of the last ones. I bought it recently
[18:13] <luis9955> Manual config?
[18:13] <abstortedminds> Pulpie, nodereality server
[18:13] <predator363> outbackwifi: like this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/60604/
[18:14] <binarymutant> luis9955, yeah
[18:14] <kesi> jamus, ok going to boot into vista to test this. Thanks!
[18:14] <F-3000> #linux-fi
[18:14] <cedriczg> F-3000, oh, right
[18:14] <Pulpie> abstortedminds: i've been there
[18:14] <aflack> Neaai: ok i installed it i think, it accepted and it created and did some stuff and nows its done..
[18:14] <ThisIsMeAndN> jadedoto: No USB drive.   I set 777 umask to the cache directory and give it to www-data:www-data.  but new files created in it have username:group as TJ:TJ (my regular user's name, not www-data)
[18:14] <outbackwifi> predator363: no! you changed the "screen" section not the "monitor" section
[18:14] <cedriczg> Does someone tried the art-gnome program on ubuntu 8.04 ?
[18:14] <Pulpie> abstortedminds: hmm what channel?
[18:14] <abstortedminds> #node
[18:14] <Neaai> aflack: wait, I need to refresh what's to be done next. if it's not yet complete
[18:14] <cedriczg> I am having troubles to look at previews in that program
[18:14] <predator363> outbackwifi: crap!
[18:14] <binarymutant> luis9955, make it look like this http://paste.ubuntu.com/60595/
[18:14] <aflack> Neaai: k.
[18:15] <dulak> TJ-42: the files are created by php?
[18:15] <outbackwifi> predator363: replace the screen section as per this --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/60603/
[18:15] <jadedoto> ThisIsMeAndN: What is the host OS you are trying to fix?
[18:15] <csilk> spree,  did you get what I said?
[18:15] <cedriczg> If someone can test it I would be glad. sudo apt-get install art-gnome
[18:15] <predator363> outbackwifi: i click undo untill it was back to the way it was
[18:15] <TJ-42> dulak: yes.
[18:15] <luis9955> binary
[18:15] <F-3000> Is it how important to update the english language-packs, if the user doesn't use english as the system language?
[18:15] <cedriczg> sorry
[18:15] <jamus> kesi:  good luck linuxing (btw: vista suks bigtime-- just had to say that), carry on :)
[18:15] <outbackwifi> predator363: yes, you could
[18:15] <Nt_nT> anyone have any experience with adesklets?
[18:15] <luis9955> it cant see the network card.
[18:15] <luis9955> it says no network devices found.
[18:15] <ThisIsMeAndN> jadedoto: Windows XP. I think a virus took out the system files. I've tried everything (recovery CDs, live Windows CDs, etc), but nothing, so I've decided to start from scratch.
[18:15] <Pici> cedriczg: The package name is gnome-art
[18:15] <cedriczg> sudo apt-get install gnome-art
[18:16] <predator363> outbackwifi: i meant i did
[18:16] <cedriczg> Pici, yes
[18:16] <cedriczg> Pici, do you have it installed?
[18:16] <jadedoto> ThisIsMeAndN: What exactly are you trying to do? You can just reinstall windows from the install CD.
[18:16] <outbackwifi> predator363: ok now change the "monitor" section and then pastebin it please
[18:16] <Pici> cedriczg: No, and I don't have graphical access here to test it either.
[18:16] <bingungaja> hello, can i browse my other PC windows vista with my notebook ubuntu through bluetooth ?
[18:16] <predator363> outbackwifi: sorry i just missed the screens section lemme fix it
[18:16] <cedriczg> Pici, I am not able to see the previews. Nor in the program or with the link "preview"
[18:17] <jadedoto> ThisIsMeAndN: Alternatively, you could actually instal Ubuntu on the laptop, and in the installer, tell it to use the free space on the windows partition. It will create a small area and install ubuntu on that
[18:17] <maniheer> !info gnome-art
[18:17] <ThisIsMeAndN> jadedoto: I have a lot of work I need to backup, and Windows no longer boots, hence why I was hoping I could use the Ubuntu live CD to back them up first, then reinstall Windows.
[18:17] <jadedoto> ThisIsMeAndN: and then  you can boot into that install and burn whatever data you need
[18:17] <dulak> TJ-42: you didn't chown the directory to www-data or you did?
[18:17] <Neaai> aflack: Ok. Rewind.  That sounds like exactly what I need
[18:17] <luis9955> im being serious.
[18:17] <jadedoto> ThisIsMeAndN: That will keep your windows files, just use the free space on the drive to make a small install of ubuntu
[18:17] <aflack> Neaai: i already installed it though..
[18:17] <luis9955> if I have to get through this crap just for internet
[18:17] <jamus> ThisIsMeAndN:  its a good idea to keep the important stuff on different partition not used by any os so in case of crash its easier to recover
[18:17] <luis9955> then whats the point in using ubuntu?
[18:17] <maniheer> luis9955, get to the toilet
[18:17] <maniheer> AND QUICK
[18:18] <binarymutant> lol
[18:18] <luis9955> not funny.
[18:18] <luis9955> seriously.
[18:18] <ThisIsMeAndN> jamus: True, however it's not my laptop. I'm just the tech guy ;)
[18:18] <Neaai> aflack: check that page, it has a test to see in page whether you have it ok or not.
[18:18] <F-3000> Cool, you can pm ubottu with !s. :)
[18:18] <luis9955> whats the FRICKING POINT in using ubuntu
[18:18] <luis9955> if it cant even use my damn network card.
[18:18] <jadedoto> !ubuntu
[18:18] <binarymutant> luis9955, try sudo /etc/init.d/network restart
[18:19] <luis9955> says command not found
[18:19] <TJ-42> dulak: yes, it is chowned to www-data as user and group.  but I can even only create files if permissions are set to 777 rather than 770, suggesting to me that for some reason php or apache is not accessing the directory as www-data  -- does that make sense?
[18:19] <predator363> outbackwifi: even with all the complications so far im seriously enjoying learning linux as compared to using windows
[18:19] <maniheer> luis9955, u make it look like we forced into using ubuntu
[18:19] <outbackwifi> predator363: yes and now change the value of the monitor inside the Screen section to the same one i.e. "configured monitor" instead of "Monitor0" as it is right now
[18:19] <F-3000> luis9955, I can sell you new network card, if postal expenses don't kill the efford. :P
[18:19] <Neaai> aflack: It provides full instructions too for the installation.
[18:19] <binarymutant> luis9955, try sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart   *srry
[18:19] <aflack> Neaai: ive been to that site before i came to this irc..
[18:19] <TJ-42> dulak: the directory definitely shows www-data owns it: drwxrwxrwx 2 www-data www-data  4096 2008-10-21 13:17 cache
[18:19] <predator363> outbackwifi: k i did it
[18:19] <Neaai> aflack: oh
[18:19] <dulak> TJ-42: yes apache has a suid ability, so it can run sub processes as your normal user instead of www-data
[18:20] <luis9955> reconfigruing network ninterface
[18:20] <outbackwifi> predator363: can you pastebin it just to be sure?
[18:20] <aflack> Neaai: and apperently mines not working
[18:20] <predator363> outbackwifi: sure hold on
[18:20] <luis9955> done, now what?
[18:20] <dulak> TJ-42: best way to test is to chown that dir back to your normal user and put 770 permissions on it and see
[18:20] <binarymutant> luis9955, then ifconfig and see if eth0 is there
[18:20] <dulak> TJ-42: if that's the case that's actually more secure than having apache user own it
[18:20] <jamus> ThisIsMeAndN: what exactly r u trying to do at the moment ?
[18:20] <F-3000> luis9955: Don't get frustrated. :) Things might not work with first try. At least Ubuntu isn't promising you that it's going to work 100% with your hardware, whereas windoze does that promise, yet it might be totally faulty.
[18:20] <luis9955> nope
[18:20] <luis9955> no eth0
[18:20] <cedriczg> Can anyone using ubuntu 8.04 test package gnome-art and let me know if you are facing same issues? I would appreciate
[18:20] <predator363> outbackwifi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/60610/
[18:20] <binarymutant> luis9955, all out of ideas sorry :(
[18:21] <luis9955> =|
[18:21] <angusthefuzz> cedriczg: I can confirm that the preview does not work
[18:21] <luis9955> now I have to try and force my dad into putting the network in
[18:21] <luis9955> network card*
[18:21] <ThisIsMeAndN> jamus: Backup my data using the LiveCD to reinstall Windows. At the moment, I'm going to try jadedoto's suggestion of installing Ubuntu to the free space on the HD and boot off that :)
[18:21] <luis9955> the new one
[18:21] <luis9955> brb
[18:21] <FloodBot3> luis9955: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:21] <outbackwifi> predator363: ok this looks fine. now restart the x-server with ctl+alt-backspace
[18:21] <cedriczg> angusthefuzz, thanks a lot.
[18:21] <maniheer> luis9955, what network card have you got?
[18:21] <Neaai> aflack: I need to catch up then. hold on
[18:21] <predator363> outbackwifi: k hold on
[18:21]  * outbackwifi wonders how old is luis9955
[18:22] <maniheer> chori chori chupke chupke
[18:22] <bibi__> I accidentaly pushed on media direct button on my dell laptop and now getting grub error 17. None of the forum posts I found were helpful. Has anybody had similar problem?
[18:22] <F-3000> luis9955: Lemme too know about what card, I'll do search.
[18:22] <maniheer> ignore me
[18:22] <binarymutant> maniheer, ADMtek NC100 Network is what he has
[18:22] <maniheer> never heard of that one
[18:22] <binarymutant> maniheer, it shows up lspci and the driver shows up in lsmod
[18:22] <kc8pxy> anone here try to wine chrome?
[18:22] <TJ-42> dulak: except that then is_writable returns false.... (whereas before it returned true, apparently, even when it clearly could not write to the directory)
[18:22] <kc8pxy> (on uubuntu)
[18:23] <giorgos> #kedros
[18:23] <binarymutant> why doesn't google compile chrome on linux anyways? and secondly why can't I find the source
[18:23] <luis9955> my dad is annoying me
[18:23] <luis9955> ffs
[18:23] <aflack> no but i wined chrome on windows.
[18:23] <luis9955> god
[18:23] <maniheer> binarymutant, isn't it a bad thing he couldnt /etc/init.d/network restart?
[18:23] <luis9955> "ill do it tomorrow"
[18:23] <FloodBot3> luis9955: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:23] <Pici> !ot | luis9955
[18:23] <luis9955> thats all he ever frickin says
[18:23] <Shakedown> so if I wanted to get a theme from gnomelook.org, how do I know what kind of theme I need? (GTK2.x, GDM, Compiz,...)
[18:23] <ThisIsMeAndN> I have to go, but thanks so much for the tips! Extremely helpful channel :)
[18:23] <ThisIsMeAndN> Bye everyone :)
[18:23] <dulak> TJ-42: that's weird, you could check your apache config and see how it's set to run as that user for that virtual host, maybe disable that on that vhost and then chowning to www-data would work
[18:23] <outbackwifi> !bye
[18:23] <jadedoto> ThisIsMeAndN: You're welcome!
[18:23] <maniheer> !bye
[18:23] <binarymutant> maniheer, lol I got it wrong :( it was /etc/init.d/networking
[18:23] <facundoo>  hola
[18:23] <maniheer> wah wah
[18:23] <dulak> TJ-42: but that's not default setup afaik, you have to do a lot of work to get apache to run stuff as a normal user
[18:24]  * maniheer hides in a corner
[18:24] <kc8pxy> aflack:  ... i like chrome from ym windows box, and don't want to wait till they make a linux native  :-(
[18:24] <jamus> ThisIsMeAndN: sound good , the live cd version is ont intended  for that
[18:24] <TJ-42> dulak: you're right it's got to be something with apache I guess.  which is strange since I have really not changed the setup.  I'm going to ask in apache rooms
[18:24] <aflack> i am not a big fan of chrome :\ i could wait :D
[18:24] <Hexbomber> chrome is terribly insecure.
[18:24] <Hexbomber> and loads pages funny.
[18:25] <outbackwifi> TJ-42: Hint--> you need to use suid or suexec for that
[18:25] <maniheer> aflack, use firefox 3.1 with jit enabled
[18:25] <maniheer> supposed to be quicker
[18:25] <facundoo> che

[18:25] <binarymutant> Hexbomber, wouldn't that be webkit
[18:25] <maniheer> aflack, fair enough
[18:25] <cedriczg> angusthefuzz, If you run gnome-art from terminal and try to look for lets say desktop themes, do you see error logs "PixbufError with File: <...>.png - deleted"
[18:26] <TJ-42> outbackwifi: well i've definitely never used either.  so something is odd :-)

[18:27] <aflack> Neaai: you there?
[18:27] <facundoo> The business more exposed to bankruptcy is the glassware.
[18:27] <cedriczg> angusthefuzz, ok. I will have to dig in the web for this kind of error and see what I can resolve. thanks

[18:32] <Shakedown> How can I find out if I can use a GTK2.x theme?
[18:32] <Pici> jedimindtrick: ctrl-alt-backspace restarts Xorg, which will restart nautilus in the process.
[18:32] <maniheer> Shakedown, u can use all of them

[18:34] <aflack> hello
[18:35] <meoint> Hi
[18:35] <aflack> sorry, it wasnt moving down with the text i thought everyone sotpped talking
[18:35] <TheFiller>  Can I safely sym-link certain directories in my home directory (like those used by firefox, opera, thunderbird mail, xchat, whatever) to directories on an external HDD, so that I can use the logs, bookmarks, settings on more than one linux distribution/computer?
[18:35] <Shakedown> Ok, so if I goto Theme->Install, what do I select? I'm just navigating the directories of the theme
[18:36] <aflack> ERROR: dependency is not satisfiable: firefox 3.1 - branding | abrowser-3.1 -branding
[18:36] <jadedoto> TheFiller: I suppose you _could_ but what if you boot without that HDD?
[18:36] <Daremonai> If I want a DNS server so i can route my IP to a webname, what do you think I should use? I have my own irc/ssh/ftp/etc. servers, I want to be able to use them all..
[18:36] <n8tuser> TheFiller-> its okay to do that
[18:36] <Pici> Shakedown: You shouldnt need to use that.  Just drag the tar.gz file that you downloaded onto the themes window.
[18:36] <jedimindtrick> i just lgoged otu/back in and still no icons on the desktop :\
[18:36] <binarymutant> Daremonai, bind maybe?
[18:36] <Shakedown> Pici: So I don't need to extract the tar.gz?
[18:36] <maniheer> aflack, add this line to your sources.list
[18:36] <maniheer> deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/fta/ubuntu hardy main
[18:36] <Pici> Shakedown: Correct, no need.
[18:36] <jedimindtrick> when i goto home folder > desktop - they are there just not showing up
[18:37] <jadedoto> aflack: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion
[18:37] <jadedoto> There is a guide on how to do it.
[18:37] <TheFiller> jadedoto: well, then I'm out of luck ;) What would happen then by the way? when e.g. ~/firefox is a dead symlink and I start firefox?
[18:37] <TheFiller> n8tuser: OK
[18:37] <Daremonai> binarydigit, don't I have to buy a domain name from some company?
[18:37] <aflack> maniheer: i dont get what you mean im sorta new to linux
[18:37] <jadedoto> TheFiller: Nothing.
[18:38] <maniheer> how do you add sources using a GUI?
[18:38] <binarymutant> Daremonai, yes
[18:38] <maniheer> (first question of its kind)
[18:38] <Pici> maniheer: System>Administration>Software Sources
[18:38] <binarymutant> Daremonai, maybe dyndns is what your looking for
[18:38] <meoint> is nmap illegal?
[18:39] <Daremonai> binarymutant (sorry i got the wrong name - sorry binarydigit) - Alright, I need to buy one from a decent company.
[18:39] <aflack> maniheer: i dont know how to add sources or what that means, explain?
[18:39] <binarymutant> meoint, no
[18:39] <jadedoto> TheFiller: As long as you do have a /home area where some user information is stored, I'm sure that would be fine (because it is created automatically anyway). But If you start out with the external as /home, you might run into some spectacular mount errors
[18:39] <binarymutant> meoint, you can even see it in films like the Matrix :)
[18:39] <binarymutant> Daremonai, dyndns is free btw
[18:40] <TheFiller> jadedoto: I do not want to mount the external partition as /home, just have some directories in ~/ point to this partition
[18:40] <Daremonai> binarymutant, and I will be able to get a .com domain name and it allows me to have all my services running?
[18:40] <binarymutant> Daremonai, they supply the name if you want your own you have to pay $$
[18:40] <Neaai> aflack: It's not doing something correcly, there could be something amiss. A friend with firefox can't do, I can't either with iceweasel.
[18:40] <halkun> how do I know what version of ubuntu I'm running?
[18:41] <Neaai> aflack: I'll check a bit
[18:41] <Pici> halkun: lsb_release -a
[18:41] <Daremonai> binarymutant, what do you mean they supply the name?
[18:41] <aflack> ok
[18:41] <Pici> Daremonai: FYI, some residential ISP's block some ports, like those used for http, ftp, mail...
[18:41] <binarymutant> Daremonai, I mean if you go with dyndns you'll get a xxx.dyndns.com name, but if you want your own domain you'll have to buy it
[18:41] <cedriczg> angusthefuzz, I will definitely go for last version for gnome-art and check if it works. Here it is https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-art
[18:41] <Daremonai> Pici, Yeah I know.. but I talked to my ISP he's opened everything for me.
[18:41] <Helminthe> Hello
[18:42] <Mohammad[B]> hi all, i need a program for send/receive faxes in ubuntu with a fax modem, please help me !
[18:42] <Shakedown> How can I delete a directory that's not empty? 'rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty'?
[18:42] <Daremonai> binarymutant, I see.. and if I wanna buy one, who's the "best" provider?
[18:42] <Pici> Shakedown: rm -rf
[18:42] <binarymutant> Daremonai, I go through godaddy, but it's all personal preference
[18:42] <Pici> Daremonai: #web may be able to help you better at this point, as its not really Ubuntu related.
[18:43] <cedriczg> angusthefuzz, well I thought it was a newer one but it's the same as the one in synaptic repositories...
[18:43] <Daremonai> Thanks Pici, and thank you binarymutant!
[18:43] <binarymutant> :)
[18:43] <the_eraser> hi
[18:44] <Helminthe> Mohammad[B]: hylafax is a very good software for this task, although you'll need to do some serious reading in its manual
[18:44] <Shakedown> Pici: Thanks
[18:45] <Mohammad[B]> Helminthe, that is cli based ?
[18:45] <woli> how do i check if ports routed to my computer are open?
[18:46] <Helminthe> Mohammad[B]: it has all the options and GUI frontends you might need a few dozen more :)
[18:46] <madmax__> restricted driver support is there a specific channel for the broadcom sta driver
[18:46] <Mohammad[B]> heath|OTG, okay, thank you anyway :-)
[18:46] <J6Dof> hi , what is launchpad's repository for ubuntu hardy ?
[18:46] <madmax__> my driver is checked but doesn't say in use after a reboot
[18:47] <swajak> talk about EXCITEMENT for OSS.  un hunh!
[18:47] <Pici> J6Dof: What do you mean?
[18:47] <madmax__> if i check and uncheck it the inuse goes green and i can connect to wireless networks but it does not survive a reboot
[18:47]  * swajak wants you to ignore him.
[18:47] <predator363> outbackwifi: i restarted x and i said no screens found i tryed as hard as i could to not have to xfix in recovery mode but it was what i ended up having to do
[18:47] <J6Dof> i know it has a repository like ubuntu's official online repository ,cant find it
[18:48] <Helminthe> is anyone using (successfully) pommed with Inteprid?
[18:48] <Pici> !ibex | Helminthe
[18:48] <maniheer> i got an Aipom
[18:48] <maniheer> anyone want to trade?
[18:48] <MarcC_> lol, anybody know why "blank screen" for screensaver would crash X, while normal screensavers don't?
[18:48] <maniheer> :P
[18:48] <predator363> did outbackwifi leave?
[18:48] <Pici> J6Dof: There are PPA repositories, but no general launchpad one afaik.
[18:48] <Pici> predator363: yes.
[18:48] <Helminthe> Pici: ok, correction noted :)
[18:48] <predator363> CRAP!
[18:49] <J6Dof> so what is ppa's repository
[18:49] <JPL> I have asus Eee pc 701. I forgot username and password. Is there a way to get it back ? :(
[18:49] <Pici> !ppa | J6Dof
[18:49] <predator363> he was trying to help me fix my graphics problems and all he ended up doing wa sdestroying my xserver twice
[18:49] <Helminthe> pommed used to run almost perfectly in 8.04 (kernel 2.6.24) and is badly badly broken now :(
[18:49] <binarymutant> predator363, lol ouch
[18:50] <madmax__> i think the problem is in jockey
[18:50] <predator363> so i'll ask again to see if anyone elts can help
[18:50] <madmax__> it rewrites the /boot/initrm file when you enable and disable the broadcom driver
[18:50] <headphonerush> um... hi, i need help installing skype on my system
[18:51] <madmax__> the new nvidia update crashes as well on reboot
[18:51] <madmax__> it was all working fine untill jock updated
[18:51] <jken146> headphonerush, see http://medibuntu.org
[18:51] <binarymutant> headphonerush, ekiga is the free software replacement for skype btw

[18:53] <madmax__> predator363: try turning off the restriced nvidia driver
[18:53]  * RonzO waves to everyone
[18:53] <Helminthe> halkun: I don't see the issue with having some harmless fun while working on something, especially something as un-conventional as Ubuntu
[18:53] <madmax__> or sudo displayconfig-gtk
[18:53] <headphonerush> thanks jken146!
[18:53] <predator363> madmax_: i would but in device drivers it dose not have that option available
[18:53] <binarymutant> ubuntu is pretty conventional...
[18:53] <RonzO> predator363, what video card are you using?
[18:54] <halkun> I'm suprised that Tengwar isn't in there
[18:54] <predator363> ronz0: geforce 8200m
[18:54] <Helminthe> binarymutant: coming from a very restrictive working environment, that went to "we only do c# version 2.0, not 1.1, not 3"..
[18:54] <RonzO> predator363, have you installed it through restricted drivers?
[18:55] <binarymutant> Helminthe, lol thats rough
[18:55] <predator363> ronz0: it was installed using the newest driver from nvidia and working flawelessly but no its not
[18:55] <predator363> ronz0: now its not i mean
[18:56] <RonzO> predator363, did you download it from the nvidia website?
[18:56] <predator363> ronz0:yep
[18:56] <dragonlaw> hello, i cannot access my college wireless. Although I can connect to the ESSID, i cannot connect to the internet. My college wireless has a firewall that requires me to login with a username and a password. Can anyone help?
[18:56] <RonzO> predator363, when working with ubuntu, the best way to do it is to use the ones in synaptic. whenever a new kernel comes out, the drivers are updated with it
[18:57] <RonzO> predator363, if you download the binary for it, you will have to install it EVERY time a new kernel comes out
[18:57] <predator363> those drivers dident work
[18:57] <binarymutant> Helminthe, of course ubuntu can do c# too though, but I get where your going with it
[18:57] <Helminthe> !nul
[18:57] <predator363> ronz0: how do i find out what im using right now
[18:57] <Helminthe> heh, didn't get approved :)
[18:57] <RonzO> predator363, nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and go down to "driver" section
[18:58] <Helminthe> dragonlaw: your question doesn't seem to be related to Ubuntu or Linux in any way..
[18:58] <madmax__> predator363: sudo displayconfig-gtk change the driver to vesa and change the moniter from plug n play  to lcd 1280x800 or something to reflect your display then you chould be able to test the settings if the work fine click ok and log out and back in
[18:58] <kansan> how long can i stay on hardy?
[18:58] <dragonlaw> er im using ubuntu
[18:58] <dulak> kansan: as long as you want
[18:58] <Craihhgney> what does "daemon" mean?
[18:59] <dragonlaw> when i try to access the wireless via XP i can
[18:59] <dragonlaw> so i think its the ubuntu configuration?
[18:59] <RonzO> Craihhgney, use it in a sentance, it has multiple meanings
[18:59] <MarcC_> kansan: you can really stay with Hardy as long as you like
[18:59] <dulak> Craihhgney: service that runs without displaying anything to the screen
[18:59] <neosisani> friend wants to have beautiful linux with multiple desktops. Should he get ubuntu or kubuntu?
[18:59] <RonzO> dragonlaw, what wireless card do you have?
[18:59] <aflack> what does !dangerdo
[18:59] <Helminthe> dragonlaw: you said the wireless connection works, but there is some other layer of authentication afterwards. is this related to your (ubuntu) computer?
[18:59] <RonzO> neosisani, try the live CD of both. i am partial to ubuntu
[18:59] <kansan> MarcC_, when do updates stop coming out?
[18:59] <dragonlaw> atheros 5418
[18:59] <dragonlaw> yea it is.
[19:00] <Vegombrei> hi ... is there a terminal based torrent downloading software ???
[19:00] <neosisani> that is good idea, thx RonzO
[19:00] <MTecknology> Craihhgney: denyhosts is a daemon because once it's started, it runs without user interaction. It basically just sits back and does what it's supposed to.
[19:00] <dragonlaw> the wireless can connect, and then when i go into firefox i am supposed to see the authentication
[19:00] <MarcC_> kansan: what kind of updates? You can run the full gamut from self-updating to minor security updates, etc.
[19:00] <dragonlaw> i can do that with xp but not when i'm using ubuntu
[19:00] <augusto> alguem pode dar uma ajuda ai, como instalar o wireless no meu ubuntu!
[19:00] <aflack> guys what does !danger do>??
[19:00] <dragonlaw> im using ubuntu 8.04
[19:00] <kansan> MarcC_, all kinds ? not sure what the difference is;  i just hit the red download icon at top right
[19:00] <tMish> intrepid is too raw for me. going back t 8.04
[19:00] <binarymutant> Vegombrei, rtorrent is I believe
[19:00] <bibi__> Vewgombrei: there is ncurses based software. I will try to remember what it is.
[19:00] <predator363> ronz0:please look http://paste.ubuntu.com/60622/
[19:01] <Helminthe> dragonlaw: oh, so it doesn't actually work fully, I have the same issues with my Atheros 5418 wireless card on a Macbooc pro
[19:01] <predator363> ...
[19:01] <dragonlaw> yea
[19:01] <MarcC_> kansan: hardy will be maintained/supported for three years on the desktop, five on the server
[19:01] <madmax__> dragonlaw: try installing a differant browser like opera and see if that works
[19:01] <Helminthe> dragonlaw: what manufacturer/model have you?
[19:01] <augusto> my atheros active by software
[19:01] <predator363> ronz0: please look http://paste.ubuntu.com/60622/
[19:01] <dragonlaw> no i tried already but it does
[19:01] <RonzO> predator363, is that all of it?
[19:01] <madmax__> dragonlaw: can you check for updates
[19:01] <dragonlaw> its a thinkpad t61
[19:02] <predator363> yea
[19:02] <aflack> MarcC: thats a long time lol
[19:02] <predator363> ronz0: yea
[19:02] <kansan> MarcC_, awesome;
[19:02] <MarcC_> kansan: after that you can decide to either upgrade or just maintain it yourself (find backports or compile your own).
[19:02] <dragonlaw> yea did that too
[19:02] <augusto> fujitsu siemens amilo li2727
[19:02] <madmax__> dragonlaw: or ping google.com
[19:02] <RonzO> predator363, try to enable the nvidia driver from restricted driver manager, and see what happens. it shows that there is no video card driver running  =)
[19:02] <dragonlaw> i'm thinking its something to do with WEP enterprise?
[19:02] <MarcC_> kansan: but usually the temptation is too strong for me and I upgrade pretty often ;)
[19:02] <dragonlaw> but im not sure really
[19:02] <Vegombrei> binarymutant: is there a doccument that shows me how to use it ? im currently downloading and installing it
[19:02] <predator363> ronz0: restricted driver managaer?
[19:02] <Helminthe> dragonlaw: try this hint and driver: http://razvan.cosma.name/weblog/index.php?entry=entry080625-002308
[19:02] <markus_> Can it be that some ubuntu package server are offline?
[19:02] <kansan> MarcC_, is there anyway to know if the intel p31 chipset (specifically on board ethernet) is supported in intrepid?
[19:03] <StrixV> Adept Manager problem: Okay, so I've custom compiled a couple things (like vpnc with openssl enabled).  How the hell can I get it to stop?
[19:03] <dragonlaw> ok i will
[19:03] <RonzO> predator363, system > admin > hardware drivers, and enable the nvidia driver there
[19:03] <MarcC_> kansan: test using a live CD
[19:03] <Helminthe> dragonlaw: of course, it's my we page, if I plant a virus in those files it's your fault, etc
[19:03] <kansan> MarcC_, good call
[19:03] <dragonlaw> oh ok
[19:03] <RonzO> StrixV, don't install those updates
[19:03] <MarcC_> kansan: ethernet will be pretty obvious if you're missing support :)

[19:04] <ajhtiredwolf> RonzO, unfortuantely no that wont fix it, already tried it
[19:04] <SlimeyPete> you probably don't need it unless you're hosting a fileshare for Windows workstations

[19:07] <supertanker> What's a good application that would allow me to do search-and-replaces on multiple text files?
[19:07] <MTecknology> ikonia: I decided that the battery life impact isn't significant enough for me to reinstall everything. There's still a chance of it - but that depends on a different class.
