[21:30] <rufus_> okay, I already have Kubuntu installed on my hard disk. I have two other partitions - /dev/hda1 and /dev/hda2 - Kubuntu is on /dev/hda3 - How can I choose to install Ubuntu on /dev/hda1(/media/sda1)
[21:30] <ph0rensic> leeping: What seems to be the issue
[21:30] <rufus_> I already have a swap partition
[21:30] <leeping> The Ubuntu live CD doesn't appear to be willing to mount when I serve it on NFS
[21:30] <misteralexander> prince_jammys => i'll try that.
[21:30] <Photocopy> mjw: Now all the sudden clicking record makes an error opening sound device
[21:30] <MasterShrak> rufus_ choose it during the install
[21:30] <mjw-> Photocopy make sure ALSA is chosen in the volume control too
[21:30] <leeping> I consistently get the error: "Cannot find a live filesystem"
[21:31] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: don't bother paste-binning it if its empty
[21:31] <Odd-rationale> rufus_: When you install, on the partition step. Do a manual
[21:31] <MasterShrak> leeping mount the nfs share then mount the iso
[21:31] <ph0rensic> rufus_: In setup you select manually to install to that partition
[21:31] <rufus_> MasterShrak, but it wants to save it to /media/hda3
[21:31] <Photocopy> mjw-: Alsa is chosen, had to do that part to make sound work
[21:31] <rufus_> which is where Kubuntu is
[21:31] <Z0d14k1> Is there a way in compiz to force an app to always launch on a specific cube face?  ie: pidgin is always Face 4 e-mail is always face 2?  (is face the right word?  Desktop?)
[21:31] <credible> Z0d14k1: yes, please join #compiz-fusion
[21:31] <Odd-rationale> rufus_: During instal of ubuntu, set hda2 to /
[21:31] <MasterShrak> rufus_ are you aware that you can use ubuntu (gnome) and kubuntu (kde) on the same install?
[21:31] <leeping> Mount the NFS share?
[21:31] <rufus_> Okay, I got it
[21:32] <leeping> MasterShrak, do you mean I need the NFS server running?
[21:32] <rufus_> MasterShrak, I am aware of hat
[21:32] <Z0d14k1> credible:  Thanks.  Sorry, should have paid more attention to where I was....
[21:32] <rufus_> that*
[21:32] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: if theres another trash in there im gonna be very confused
[21:32] <MasterShrak> leeping what exactly are you trying to do?
[21:32] <leeping> I have a server computer with an image of the Ubuntu Live CD.. on the server I have PXE and TFTP
[21:32] <soleone> hi everyone! does someone know a good dictionary tool like babylon for ubuntu
[21:33] <misteralexander> prince_jammys | kbrooks => Okay, yeah it's just listing now the contents of the other trash folder.  I'm wanting to just completely erase the .Trash folder entirely.  So it's not on the disk at all, gone totally.
[21:33] <MasterShrak> soleone i think there is one already installed, check your applications menu
[21:33] <ballonge1> what is the best way to mount shares via samba on my ubuntu client? by enterering username, passwords in fstab or in a txtfile inside userhome, or is there another way?
[21:33] <sp0ro|> Which file do you edit to change the module parameters of a wireless adapter?
[21:33] <leeping> I'd like to serve the Live CD kernel on TFTP and mount the rest of the CD on NFS, so that computers on the LAN can boot up using the live CD on the server
[21:33] <leeping> The computers on the LAN don't have CD-ROM drives, you see ..
[21:33] <_Oz_> Hello, Ubuntu friends!
[21:33] <MasterShrak> ic leeping, i dont have any experience doing that, sorry
[21:34] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: rm -r .Trash-misteralexander  <--- but it will be recreated when delete stuff in the future
[21:34] <ballonge1> leeping: how do you servhe the live cd to tftp?
[21:34] <ph0rensic> leeping: You trying to install remotely??
[21:34] <leeping> ph0rensic: Not really.  Once the computer boots up with the LiveCD, I will use netcat to write an image of a pre-configured system to the hard drive
[21:34] <misteralexander> okay, i'm not EVER using this SD card in the computer again.
[21:34] <leeping> because I have twelve identical computers
[21:34] <mjw-> leeping that is considerably more advanced than this channel is really designed to address.
[21:34] <leeping> ballongel: I'm only serving the kernel of the livecd
[21:34] <Detructor> leeping: lol
[21:34] <ph0rensic> leeping: why dont you look at clonezilla
[21:35] <sp0ro|> Which file do you edit to change the module parameters of a wireless adapter?
[21:35] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: you can execute the above command any time you want that trash can gone
[21:35] <wyseur>  hello everybody
[21:35] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: windows does the same, creates a Recycled folder automatically
[21:35] <misteralexander> prince_jammys => stand-by for a patebin addy.
[21:35] <vincenzo> folk!!!!!!!!!!!
[21:35] <Photocopy> mjw-: I see what you mean and i played with those settings to no avail.. the ones in edit> preferences.
[21:35] <wyseur> anybody knows any problems with installing windows after a format from within ubuntu?
[21:36] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: pasting what?  is there an error
[21:36] <leeping> ph0rensic, I've looked at systemimager, which I feel is similar, but those large program packages don't always work with new hardwaree
[21:36] <dario> ciao a tutti
[21:36] <wyseur> I can't seem to install xp on my HD
[21:36] <vincenzo> Tell me why do you chose linux as oyur s,o.???
[21:36] <ph0rensic> leeping: Well it was worth a shot
[21:36] <misteralexander> prince_jammys => http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56135/
[21:36] <mjw-> Photocopy i don't record anything in linux so i don't know what else to say
[21:36] <wyseur> it used to work untill I formatted the disk with ubuntu
[21:36] <rufus_> if I already have grub set up for another operating system, will ubuntu overwrite it, or just set it up to work alongside the other operating system?
[21:36] <leeping> ph0rensic, I'll look at clonezilla :) thanks
[21:36] <mjw-> !ot > vincenzo
[21:36] <Symgeosis> pe
[21:36] <ph0rensic> leeping: Check it o9ut on sourceforge.net
[21:37] <WarriorSlayer> somebody plz can help me configuring my home network?
[21:37] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: oh boy
[21:37] <ph0rensic> leeping: Has uni and multicasting like ghost
[21:37] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: are you able to write to this thing?  what is it? a partition?
[21:37] <ph0rensic> leeping: says it supports ~40 pc's installing at once
[21:37] <Photocopy> Can anyone help me with audacity? I cannot get it to pick up my mic
[21:37] <amd> yuy
[21:38] <amd> tyutyuty
[21:38] <MasterShrak> amd please dont spam
[21:38] <pike_> rufus_: i would expect ubuntu to prompt you before overwriting the mbr but im not totally sure. in any case ubuntu should autodetect the other os and set it up on its menu.lst so when it does overwrite the mbr on bootup you still have the choice of os
[21:38] <misteralexander> yeah, i've written to it using my Ubuntu desktop (this is my laptop // it has the smart-card reader).  It's an SD card.
[21:38] <leeping> ph0rensic, that sounds pretty cool - I'll look at the documentation :)
[21:38] <leeping> Thanks
[21:38] <ikonia> hfmls: you called
[21:38] <rufus_> pike_, thanks
[21:39] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: right now it seems you dont have permission to write to it
[21:39] <Petengy> knowing I have properly (and working) installed ALSA driver for my 82801H (ICH8 Family) sound system.... someone know how to get internal mic to work ?
[21:39] <bascule> pike_: at the end of install you have to explicitly tell it not to overwrite, but it picks up other OS just fine, and recovery partitions too
[21:39] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: try   sudo rm -r .Trash-misteralexander
[21:39] <Petengy> or make working an internal mic of a laptop inside ubuntu?
[21:39] <misteralexander> okay, hold on
[21:39] <muttonjeff> thanksants
[21:40] <misteralexander> no same output.  Read-only.
[21:40] <Photocopy> seriously.
[21:40] <misteralexander> I've got to be able to do this . . . I can write info to it and delete it but when it's in the .Trash folder it's untouchable????
[21:41] <Photocopy> I installed ubuntu studio to record stuff and I cant get my mic to work. I need a hand here.
[21:41] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: if you want to test that, try this     touch testfile
[21:41] <v_sec> anyone else have all their emerald theme engine's setting go to all 0 opacity? and any idea how i get back those settings?
[21:41] <misteralexander> okay, lemme see.
[21:41] <s0u][ight> i got troubleshooting with sound :s
[21:41] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: if you have permission, it will create an empty file called testfile
[21:41] <misteralexander> cannot touch 'testfile' system read-only.
[21:42] <pike_> Photocopy: its almost certanly just muted if you run alsamixer you can adjust the settings for the mic
[21:42] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: so thats the problem ---- otherwise ,    rm -r .Trash-misteralex     is all you would have to do
[21:42] <Photocopy> pike_: No, in alsamixer, unmuting it only makes mic input come out my speakers, audacity doesnt pick it up
[21:43] <Detructor> doesn't use alsa only OSS?!
[21:43] <Detructor> eerh
[21:43] <Detructor> audacity
[21:43] <misteralexander> so what's the problem???  It's just read-only and that's that?  I'm screwed?
[21:43] <Photocopy> audacity lets me use oss
[21:43] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: this /media/disk  you're in ;: what is it again?
[21:43] <Photocopy> i mean alsa
[21:43] <MasterShrak> v_sec chances are its a compiz setting, by doing: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager   you get a program called ccsm that you can mess with settings
[21:43] <misteralexander> an SD card
[21:44] <Photocopy> i can select my sound card (listed as an alsa thing) in devices in audacity
[21:44] <misteralexander> My "Navigon GPS" 4GB SD Card.
[21:44] <Photocopy> i cannot make my microphone work
[21:44] <Detructor> errh...Photocopy: try to start audacity with aoss
[21:44] <Photocopy> detructor: How
[21:44] <Detructor> first you have to install alsa-oss over the package repositories
[21:45] <excalibas> Im having some problems with the gnome panel, it freezes and the cpu goes to 60% and stays there untill i kill it. It used to be ok....
[21:45] <Photocopy> detructor: I don't like the sound of this package
[21:45] <Detructor> then you've to start audacity via "aoss audacity"
[21:45] <Detructor> oh...
[21:45] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: paste the output of this (only one line, so don't need to pastebin):     grep '/media/disk'  /etc/fstab
[21:45] <Faust-C> do i need portmap to browse MS network ?
[21:46] <Detructor> Photocopy: errh okay...
[21:46] <MasterShrak> Faust-C i dont think so
[21:46] <Photocopy> detructor: I can select alsa devices in audacity
[21:46] <v_sec> MasterShrak: thanks- so now this begs the question.... how do i have wobbly windows if "wobbly windows" isnt checked off as "enabled" in ccsm?
[21:46] <Faust-C> i cant browse my network even w/ smb apps
[21:46] <Detructor> Photocopy: okay...
[21:47] <MasterShrak> v_sec its probably a setting somewhere else
[21:47] <prince_jammys> prince_jammys: pastebin only if more than one line long
[21:47] <ph0rensic> v_sec: You might just have advanced desktop effects marked and not full compiz
[21:47] <Photocopy> detructor: It simply doest work
[21:47] <MasterShrak> prince_jammys im glad you let yourself know that :)
[21:47] <v_sec> MasterShrak: any ideas where?
[21:47] <MasterShrak> v_sec not a clue since im not on my linux machine atm
[21:47] <misteralexander> PRINCE_JAMMYS => After hanging for a second it resulted in no output.  Nothing happened.
[21:47] <Detructor> Photocopy: errhm, what happens, when you go to the "audio" panel in the system menu
[21:47] <Detructor> and then "test" the input?
[21:48] <saurabh> i want to remove freeradius since i accidently deleted radiusd.conf from /etc/freeradius, the i did sudo apt-get remove freeradius, then i installed it again, but it says it can't find radiusd.conf in /etc/freeradius/
[21:48] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: it gets mounted automatically?
[21:48] <Detructor> and what device is selected there?
[21:48] <misteralexander> yeah.
[21:48] <Photocopy> detructor: Audacity doesnt have a system menu
[21:48] <Detructor> not audacity
[21:48] <Detructor> :D
[21:48] <pike_> Photocopy: there are multiple sections in alsamixer playback capture all   you want the mic on in playback but not capture i think
[21:48] <|unjustice|> hi I am running ubuntu gutsy on x86 and using amarok but I cannot scan my collection in order to load files into the library, and whenever I open it I get an error that reads
[21:48] <prince_jammys> MasterShrak: yeah, just a "note to self"
[21:48] <Friez> hi
[21:48] <MasterShrak> saurabh sudo apt-get purge freeradius    then reinstall it
[21:48] <|unjustice|> "Please check that the "dcopserver is running"

[21:50] <|unjustice|> "Please check that the "dcopserver is running"
[21:50] <prince_jammys> misteralexander: ok good luck, remember that command, once you're able to write to the disk
[21:50] <Photocopy> detructor theres no audio in the system menu... theres preferences, system administration, help and support, about gnome, about ubuntu, quit...
[21:50] <Friez> what is dcopserver ?
[21:50] <|unjustice|> do not know
[21:50] <Detructor> okay, system -> preferences -> audio
[21:51] <Starnestommy> Friez: I think it's KDE's interprocess communication service
[21:51] <Z0d14k1> Friez:  dcopserver is a part of KDE used for IPC.
[21:51] <Detructor> sorry I'm a german user I don't know how these points are namend in the english version
[21:51] <ompaul> Friez, Starnestommy is right
[21:51] <Photocopy> detructor: Theres no audio there... you mean sound?
[21:51] <Detructor> yep
[21:51] <TheCougar> ok here it goes! i'm booting ubuntu (7.04 i think) from the cd and i play a radio station and it plays... but i don't hear it. so i plug in my headphones into my headphone jack (note that the speakers are already plugged into the speakers jack) and i can then hear the music from the speakers
[21:51] <Detructor> sorry again :(
[21:51] <Photocopy> detructor: what do i do in this sound preferences panel
[21:51] <TheCougar> whats up with that?
[21:51] <Friez> ok
[21:52] <Detructor> there should be something like "sound input"
[21:52] <Friez> how to check it dcopserver
[21:52] <Friez> running or not
[21:52] <Friez> ??
[21:52] <TheCougar> same thing happens in vista
[21:52] <Detructor> Photocopy: and there should be a "test" button
[21:52] <Photocopy> detructor: Right... what
[21:52] <rodafr> hello, I have a problem. when I plug in my headphones in my laptop, I get no sound. sound works through the internal speakers, though.
[21:52] <ompaul> Friez, it is only running when an application wants it - install konqueror usually that installs it
[21:52] <Detructor> press it ;)
[21:52] <Photocopy> Detructor: I clicked test... now what?
[21:52] <soleone> i can't find out how to start wordtrans-qt after installing, it hasn't been added to the applications-menu. somebody has a tip?
[21:53] <MasterShrak> TheCougar soudns like a hardware or bios problem
[21:53] <Detructor> Photocopy: have you heard something out of your speakers?!
[21:53] <Friez> ok how the check the status of this program ?
[21:53] <Photocopy> Detructor: Everything i say in the mic comes out the speakers, and did even before i clicked test.
[21:53] <Friez> via command line ?
[21:53] <TheCougar> MasterShrek: motherboard has been replaced (which has the sound card and front audio jack)

[22:00] <Detructor> o_0
[22:00] <Detructor> okay...
[22:00] <Photocopy> Detructor: The sound preferences sound capture setting is set to "alsa" quite simply, with no description of what actual device its using
[22:00] <Detructor> then I've don't idea...without: try and fail
[22:00] <danj> cant get my wireless card work, strange coss i read that there should be no problem :(
[22:00] <Detructor> oh
[22:00] <Detructor> errh
[22:00] <Detructor> damn
[22:00] <danj> but my wifi led still off, cant get it work
[22:00] <Photocopy> Detructor: Ive tried all the options in audacity to no avail
[22:01] <Detructor> ok...
[22:01] <prince_jammys> Photocopy: sound coming from the wrong card or no sound at all?
[22:01] <Detructor> then I've definetly no idea :(
[22:01] <none> danj: is it a Intel 4965 AG?
[22:01] <danj> yess
[22:01] <Photocopy> prince_jammys: Cant get my mic to work in audacity
[22:01] <danj> none: yes , it is
[22:01] <prince_jammys> Photocopy: oh THAT -- i don't remember the solution for that, sorry.
[22:02] <none> danj: i guessed on that ... does lspci show the device?
[22:02] <danj> i think no
[22:02] <prince_jammys> Photocopy: tried the forums?
[22:02] <danj> and as i said, led is off
[22:02] <danj> and there is no switch for wifi, there is only one for bluetoth
[22:02] <Photocopy> prince_jammys: I dont understsand why you think I'd do that?
[22:03] <spleencheesemonk> help needed. i backed up my evolution and restored it onto another computer but have a different home directory path (username).  when i send email now i get the following message :
[22:03] <spleencheesemonk> "Failed to append to mbox:/home/richard/.evolution/mail/local#Sent: Cannot get folder: /home/<username>/.evolution/mail/local: No such file or directory
[22:03] <spleencheesemonk> Appending to local `Sent' folder instead."
[22:03] <spleencheesemonk> Any ideas how i point evolution to my new sent folder path?
[22:03] <none> danj: hmmm, sounds said .... are you sure ... what about some BIOS settings?
[22:03] <Detructor> danj: try to reboot and when GRUB is showing, push the WiFi button...that should work...
[22:03] <none> said=sad
[22:03] <danj> Destructor, there is no wifi button
[22:03] <Detructor> o_0
[22:04] <lollo> ok but the files that i can find in a .trash folder there aren't in the " main" trash (the icon on the desktop) ...
[22:04] <Detructor> but it's about a WiFi buildin?!
[22:04] <none> danj: what about Fn-F5?
[22:04] <NorthernLights> Hello, sorry xchat took me while i asked for nothing
[22:04] <profoak> I am trying to run STEAM through WINE and i installed steam ok but whenever i try to load steam, it says STEAM is trying to display a web page through HTML and that I need Gecko installed but i have Gecko 2.0 installed
[22:04] <danj> doesnt work
[22:04] <danj> nothing happend
[22:04] <none> danj: bios settings?
[22:05] <Detructor> profoak: enter "wine iexplore http://www.google.de"
[22:05] <danj> default ??
[22:05] <none> danj: you have to check it.
[22:05] <Detructor> if that page is displayed, you've gecko installed for wine
[22:05] <none> danj: i'm only guessing
[22:05] <danj> yes, but didnt find any wifi setings
[22:05] <Lifeisfunny> I have a problem opening the Firestarter gui,  can someone offer a work-around?
[22:05] <none> danj: there is a homepage for ibm laptops .... have you seen this?
[22:06] <Detructor> danj: last idea that works for a friend: boot up with windows, activate the wifi and than shutdown and start ubuntu...
[22:06] <nn_ds> hi all
[22:06] <danj> yes m didnt find help, worse is that i didnt check it on windows, i started from instaling ubuntu
[22:06] <Photocopy> prince_jammys: K well i guess i can revert it bvack to the normal ubuntu.
[22:06] <Lifeisfunny> the gnome applications menu has me using the   gksudo /usr/bin/firestarter   as a command.
[22:06] <none> danj: any firmware loading problem in dmesg?
[22:06] <prince_jammys> Photocopy: what do you mean?
[22:07] <nn_ds> For some reason static ip configuration is not adding a gatewaty route to the routing table table
[22:07] <Photocopy> prince_jammys: What good is ubuntu studio without a working mic? It just takes up space then
[22:07] <nn_ds> is there a way to fix this
[22:07] <prince_jammys> Photocopy: oh right , i didnt know you had ubuntu studio.  but i'm sure there's a fix for your problem.  it's just that nobody here seems to know
[22:08] <danj> got some info on dmesg
[22:08] <none> danj: http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/lenovo.html
[22:08] <danj> i read it
[22:09] <profoak> Detructor - that worked than you, what did i do? did you just give a place to download gecko?
[22:09] <none> danj: http://www.dws.eclipse.co.uk/n200linux.html   wifi working as default

It contains all the best Audio/Visual components from the Ubuntu repositories. For more info and install instructions, join #ubuntustudio or see http://ubuntustudio.org
[22:09] <Detructor> profoak: if that works, gecko is installed correctly
[22:09] <koolkat> to get into a better collage, if i become an apache mirror.....does that count for anything?
[22:09] <Detructor> and should work with Steam
[22:09] <Detructor> btw. what version of wine do you use?
[22:10] <Photocopy> prince_jammys: Er? why did you do that?
[22:10] <profoak> Detructor- it brought up google.de in a window but it also gave me an insall box and i installed gecko again and steam worked
[22:10] <prince_jammys> Photocopy: the channel
[22:10] <Detructor> profoak: so all is okay?^^
[22:11] <danj> none: got something like that:  iwl4965: Radio disabled by HW RF Kill switch in dmesg
[22:11] <Detructor> errh...and profoak: remember, steam friends doesn't work!
[22:11] <Photocopy> prince_jammys: That channel is so dead
[22:11] <agroker> azureus core dumps, what can be the reason?
[22:11] <prince_jammys> Photocopy: oh
[22:11] <profoak> Detructor- ya Steam seems to be working fine, should i somehow stop people from sending me messages?
[22:11] <v_sec> If I ps should I see compiz as well as compiz.real ??
[22:12] <none> danj: thats good, as the device is detected ... can you see anything similary in lsmod ?
[22:12] <prince_jammys> Photocopy: shame, because you need someone who has had the same problem
[22:12] <Detructor> profoak: errhm...if someone sends you a message over steam friends, you don't see it...there is some trouble with the refresh of the GUI
[22:12] <_nando> my desktop is not refreshing, when I move an icon it just moves after a F5 hit... this happens only in my account ... any idea? (gutsy)
[22:12] <none> danj: which ubuntu distro/version are you using?
[22:12] <Photocopy> prince_jammys: or someone who troubleshooted the same problem
[22:12] <danj> none: got iwl mods loaded
[22:12] <none> danj: good
[22:12] <danj> 7.10 32 bit
[22:13] <prince_jammys> Photocopy: they tend to be one and the same :)
[22:13] <none> danj: can you see the  MAC adresse with "ifconfig wlan0" ?
[22:13] <none> danj: the distro is supporting the hardware
[22:13] <MatBoy> is there a good fix to use the Nvidia drivers on a Feisty Fawn install with a Gutsy kernel ?
[22:13] <profoak> Detructor- as long as it doesnt crash steam im fine
[22:13] <Detructor> ;)
[22:13] <danj> none: wlan0     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:1D:E0:6F:D9:15
[22:13] <none> danj: hey .. everything working fine :)
[22:13] <Detructor> okay...fine^^
[22:14] <v_sec> anyone know the difference between compiz and compiz.real?
[22:14] <none> danj: whats the problem? :)
[22:14] <danj> almost, led is off and i cant find wifi network that is near me
[22:14] <Detructor> compiz.real is the process...
[22:14] <danj> in netapplet i got : wireless disabled
[22:14] <none> danj: "iwlist scan" does this show you the wireless network?
[22:14] <Starnestommy> v_sec: compiz.real is the real binary, compiz is a shell script that sets up the right variables for compiz.real and launches it
[22:15] <danj> none: wlan0     Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down
[22:15] <Friez> hello
[22:15] <Friez> ppl
[22:15] <Geoffrey2> ok, any suggestions what to do when your print jobs seem to be going nowhere?
[22:15] <bluefoxx> ok, so i got my webcam up and running, and its now mounted in the spot i want to moniter, but i was wondering, is there some way i can have the video feed from it put into a little window like those ppl with the xcoffee thing did?
[22:15] <Friez> Panic: Failed to initialize GTK
[22:15] <Friez> what is this Panic: Failed to initialize GTK
[22:15] <MatBoy> there seems to be a bug in the Feisty Fawn kernel so you can't read out MotherBoard sensors
[22:15] <none> danj: sorry .... first "ifconfig wlan0 up" ... then the "iwlist scan"
[22:15] <Friez> when running a program via bash
[22:15] <Friez> it display : Panic: Failed to initialize GTK ???
[22:16] <Friez> what 's this
[22:16] <Friez> what i have to do ?
[22:16] <v_sec> Starnestommy: I don't seem to have control over what compiz can and can't do- eg. I enable "Water effect" in ccsm but I can't use it... Any ideas?
[22:16] <Starnestommy> Friez: sounds like a bug in GTK? Do you have libgtk2.0 and libgtk2.0-dev installed?
[22:16] <danj> none: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Input/output error
[22:16] <Drk_Guy> v_sec: Just go to actions, and enable the key bindings
[22:16] <Friez> wait
[22:16] <bascule> danj: killall NetworkManager
[22:17] <bascule> and NetworkManagerDispatcher
[22:17] <blackvd> how do you restart the gnome-panels?
[22:17] <none>  0+
[22:17] <iter> there needs to be an #ubuntu-level2 for harder questions
[22:17] <v_sec> Starnestommy: also, things like "Wobbly windows" are turned off in ccsm, but my wobbly windows are working!?
[22:17] <Geoffrey2> I have evince loaded, with a pdf displayed....I bring up the print menu, select the printer, click the print button....nothing
[22:17] <iter> Geoffrey2: can you print to PDF ?
[22:17] <bascule> iter: there is, you pay for it ... ;)
[22:17] <iter> I would rather staff it :p
[22:17] <none> danj: did lsmod show: iwl4965 + iwlwifi_mac80211 + cfg80211 ?
[22:17] <Thirsteh> v_sec, believe they're enabled (in a different manner) via "Animations"
[22:18] <Geoffrey2> iter, why would I want to print TO pdf when what I want to print IS a pdf?
[22:18] <MatBoy> no-one running Gutsy with Nvidia drivers ?
[22:18] <Starnestommy> MatBoy: I am
[22:18] <Ikkeson> my first entry in the ubuntu chat is a question: I have a Medion laptop and i can't get my wireless network to work. It states that my radio is off but i can't seem to turn it on. Any1 having an idea? I found something on the dutch ubuntu pages but the link was dead
[22:18] <v_sec> MatBoy: yes, i am
[22:18] <iter> Geoffrey2: to begin troubleshooting the print process?
[22:18] <MatBoy> Starnestommy, what kernel version ? v_sec please tell me too :)
[22:18] <MatBoy> 2.6.22-14 seems to break the driver
[22:18] <v_sec> 2.6.22-14-generic
[22:19] <Starnestommy> I have that, too
[22:19] <Thirsteh> need more specifics
[22:19] <Starnestommy> seems to be working fine.
[22:19] <v_sec> MatBoy: yeah, I had that problem too, are you using restricted-drivers?
[22:19] <MatBoy> ok, nice, what have you both done to make the nvidia driver run ? I have to reinstall every boot those packages and XFCE is not woring that wel thann
[22:20] <MatBoy> -n
[22:20] <Friez> Starnestommy: libgtk2.0 already been installed but not libgtk2.0-dev
[22:20] <MatBoy> v_sec, yep
[22:20] <Detructor> ikkeson: does your laptop have a button for the WLAN to turn it on/off ?
[22:20] <Starnestommy> Friez: install libgtk2.0-dev
[22:20] <Jamesinator> When I try to change my resolution to 1280x1024, my desktop size increases but my resolution doesn't change. Now I'm scrolling around a huge desktop while still being stuck in 1024x768.
[22:20] <Friez> i just launch the installation
[22:20] <MatBoy> v_sec, possible to fix ?
[22:20] <v_sec> hmmm.... i couldn't get it to work with that- i downloaded them right from nvidia
[22:20] <Thirsteh> matboy, running with the latest nvidia drivers via Envy, works fine
[22:20] <mjw-> !envy
[22:20] <ubotu> envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[22:20] <Geoffrey2> sigh....ok, I found the problem.....
[22:21] <Ikkeson> detructor: yep but that button is not working. I saw on the dutch forum that several ppl had the same problem
[22:21] <Friez> nothing change
[22:21] <iter> Geoffrey2: what was it
[22:21] <Photocopy> prince_jammys: ill check back every day, but I really wanna get my recording underway.
[22:21] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, mhh ok... I was looking into that, but I need my own XFCE config because of 4 screens
[22:21] <Photocopy> rhyme lol
[22:21] <Thirsteh> Envy isn't recommended, but the nvidia driver currently in the repository just happens to have an extremely nasty bug that causes a complete freeze on FX cards
[22:21] <Friez> Starnestommy: notthing change after the installation
[22:21] <Thirsteh> which I happen to have
[22:21] <Friez> Panic: Failed to initialize GTK
[22:21] <Friez> again
[22:21] <Detructor> ikkeson: I had the same problem: the solution for me was: rebooting and when GRUBD is displayed I've to push the button ;)
[22:21] <MatBoy> ok, so what should be a good solution now than
[22:21] <Starnestommy> Friez: what's the first line of the shell script?
[22:22] <Detructor> GRUB not GRUBD
[22:22] <mad_max02> I have this strange high frequency sound coming out of my case. I'm sure its pcspeaker. I muted him in alsa-mixer and removed and blacklisted mod. Anyone have any other idea ? I dont wanna disconnect it from mobo.
[22:22] <Geoffrey2> apparently the settings from my last print job were saved, so instead of defaulting to print all, it was trying to print page 3 of a 1 page document......
[22:22] <mad_max02> I forgot: it is present when ever I play audio.
[22:22] <Ikkeson> so there is no way to turn it off and on using bash??
[22:22] <MatBoy> v_sec, how did you solve it ?
[22:22] <blizzkid> lo all, anyone can help me troubleshoot postfix and mailman integration? I keep getting user unknown errors
[22:22] <Friez> > chmod +x xtensoftphone
[22:22] <doc|work> mad_max02: I'd just remove it, it's not like they're useful anyway
[22:22] <Detructor> ikkeson: don't know...but I think not
[22:23] <Ikkeson> detructor: because always on drains the battery like hell
[22:23] <v_sec> Starnestommy: in Appearance > Visual Effects I have it set to "custom" and when i click Prefernces ccsm comes up with all the stuff that should / shouldnt be working incorrectly. any ideas?
[22:23] <Friez> to run the program i have to do > ./xtensoftphone
[22:23] <mad_max02> doc|work, yeah but I dont wanna do that as only solution.
[22:23] <Detructor> Ikkeson: damn...sorry I don't have any other idea
[22:23] <Detructor> *think*
[22:23] <Detructor> wait
[22:23] <mad_max02> what is related to pc speaker except its mod ?
[22:23] <Detructor> I can disable it at any time
[22:24] <Friez> this is the tuto http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56140/
[22:24] <Detructor> but only enable it on GRUB start
[22:24] <Ikkeson> detructor thanks anyway
[22:24] <Detructor> maybe it's the same for you?
[22:24] <Ikkeson> i will try that
[22:24] <Jamesinator> When I try to change my resolution to 1280x1024, my desktop size increases but my resolution doesn't change. Now I'm scrolling around a huge desktop while still being stuck in 1024x768.
[22:24] <v_sec> MatBoy: download the 100.14.19 package from nvidia and use it to install
[22:24] <MatBoy> v_sec, ok :) will do that :D
[22:24] <Detructor> ikkeson: would be fine if you come back and report ;)
[22:24] <Ikkeson> i will
[22:24] <antonsky> hi
[22:24] <Starnestommy> Friez: is there a website or source distribution of that?
[22:24] <Detructor> ikkeson: kay
[22:24] <Geoffrey2> I must admit, that's rather weird that the program would simply assume the last page range you specified would be what you wanted to print on everything from that point forward
[22:25] <MatBoy> v_sec, I will let you know
[22:25] <Ikkeson> so i will be beack
[22:25] <Ikkeson> cya later
[22:25] <Detructor> kk
[22:25] <Detructor> cu
[22:25] <Friez> everyone know this soft
[22:25] <fancy> hi there, just installed ubuntu..
[22:25] <v_sec> MatBoy: k, see you soon
[22:25] <Friez> this xlite
[22:25] <Detructor> fine ;)
[22:25] <Friez> sip softphone
[22:25] <mjw-> !hi | fancy
[22:25] <ubotu> fancy: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[22:25] <MatBoy> v_sec, I'm 24H a day on IRC ;)
[22:25] <Detructor> v_sec hey, we had a perfect timing ;)
[22:26] <Friez> on my old computer in ubuntu work fine
[22:26] <Friez> but not on new one
[22:26] <Jamesinator> When I try to change my resolution to 1280x1024, my desktop size increases but my resolution doesn't change.
[22:26] <fancy> When i boot now, in grub menu, there are ubuntu, ubuntu mem and xp partition
[22:26] <v_sec> Detructor: huh?
[22:26] <ompaul> Friez, what version are you trying to install on the new computer?
[22:26] <fancy> when you dont touch keyboard for 10 secs, ubuntu loads...
[22:26] <v_sec> oh, haha
[22:27] <fancy> how can i change this to xp (for my dad)
[22:27] <Friez> there is only one version for linux
[22:27] <Friez> and latest one
[22:27] <Detructor> v_sec: "(23:24:25) Ikkeson: i will try that" (my "client")
[22:27] <Detructor> (23:24:43) MatBoy: v_sec, ok :) will do that :D (your "client")
[22:27] <Friez> version 2.O
[22:27] <CyanideD> how do i play mp3s
[22:27] <v_sec> Detructor: heh
[22:27] <Detructor> nearly perfect I would say :D
[22:27] <en3r0> hi all
[22:27] <Detructor> hy
[22:27] <Thirsteh> MatBoy, really recommend you use Envy to install the latest nvidia driver. For one it's easier and you only have to click your mouse 3 times, but most importantly it doesn't cause a conflict between the restricted manager and the nvidia driver (causing problems with being able to load Compiz etc.)
[22:28] <Friez> the same version on both compter
[22:28] <mjw-> !grub > fancy
[22:28] <Thirsteh> MatBoy, it's as simple as going to http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html , getting "Envy New", installing it and running it
[22:28] <ompaul> Friez, ohh you are talking sip not ubuntu - you did not write it on one line so you did not come across well and so I misunderstood what you were saying
[22:28] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, I run Linux or years already, but this was an odd issue
[22:28] <Qwexer> can I change my video driver in terminal?
[22:29] <peanutwithchocol> hello everybody, does anybody know how to skip fsck at the ubuntu boot, because it EVERY startup begin to check two fats partitions I have, and the startup is a bit long, and, by the way, it also leave the graphic mode a moment, and then fsck intialises text mode, and then come back to normal mode at gdm screen
[22:29] <CyanideD> how do i play mp3
[22:29] <MatBoy> Detructor, I didn't get it btw ?
[22:29] <Friez> i try to install xlite on my ubuntu computer
[22:29] <peanutwithchocol> Cyanide: install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:29] <Thirsteh> I'm not doubting your competency, I'm just suggesting taking the easier route because the restricted drivers manager is gonna tackle you hard unless you edit its source (or use Envy which converts the nvidia package into a .deb called 'nvidia-glx-new' hence making the restricted manager think it's just a newer version of the normal driver)
[22:30] <peanutwithchocol> CyanideD: install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:30] <en3r0> anyone here against scientology?
[22:30] <mjw-> !ot > en3r0
[22:30] <CyanideD> Peanut what the cmd line
[22:30] <Detructor> MatBoy: it was about that v_sec and me have the "solution" at the same minute for you and the other guy ;)
[22:30] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, you have a point there :) I first will try the older version O ?
[22:30] <MatBoy> O
[22:30] <MatBoy> OK ?
[22:31] <MatBoy> Detructor, life can be fun :)
[22:31] <Thirsteh> MatBoy, hmm? Of Envy? Well, take the one that lists your card
[22:31] <Friez> i try to install xlite on my ubuntu computer using this instruction : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56140/ when i start to run this command ./xtensoftphone it display :Panic: Failed to initialize GTK
[22:31] <Detructor> yep :)
[22:31] <en3r0> alright, will keep on topic!
[22:31] <Friez> i try to install xlite on my ubuntu computer using this instruction : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56140/ when i start to run this command ./xtensoftphone it display :Panic: Failed to initialize GTK
[22:31] <peanutwithchocol> CyanideD: do you live in the usa?
[22:32] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, no the direct driver
[22:32] <CyanideD> yes i do Peanut
[22:32] <EnderTheThird> Is there  a better way to track CPU usage than System Monitor?  It's showing 100% usage in resources, but processes is showing jack for usage so I  don't know what's slowing this computer down
[22:32] <Friez> what i have to do know ?
[22:32] <Thirsteh> MatBoy, ah yeah, sorry. Sure
[22:32] <Detructor> enderthethird: type "top" in terminal ;)
[22:32] <NigelS> EnderTheThird: use top, or ps
[22:32] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, first alway sthe hard way :P
[22:32] <Detructor> 1 second faster :P
[22:33] <EnderTheThird> gnome-panel's the culprit apparently.   odd.
[22:33] <peanutwithchocol> CyanideD: you can't install the ubuntu restricted extras in your country because is not legal
[22:33] <L3ttuc3> Detructor i think he's talking IO, that wont show up in top either, ive had that problem too. :(
[22:33] <Hilikus> hey guys
[22:33] <CyanideD> ive done it before on 6.06

[22:34] <peanutwithchocol> CyanideD: I don't know very well because I live in the European Union, but i have heared the are some codecs to play mp3 you can install, and they are legal, but i don't know how to get them
[22:34] <Hilikus> im writing a script to backup my ubuntu server, and im usinf mysqldump to backup the DB but it says it doesnt have access from root user no password, but i dotn want to write a password in plain text in the script, how can i deal with this?
[22:34] <CyanideD> ok then
[22:35] <CyanideD> anyone know the cmd line to unstall mp3
[22:35] <L3ttuc3> Detructor what you said about top. when system monitor shows activity sometimes, in the panel, using top will not show what process is actually causing the use, if it is queued io requests or whatever.
[22:35] <pike_> EnderTheThird: could have been a bug introduced sounds like
[22:35] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, but the advantage of the envy way is ? I need to make my own xorg.conf still because I have 4 monitors on 2 cards
[22:35] <EnderTheThird> pike_:  strange thing is that it's showing a different user than the one i'm actually logged in under.

[22:36] <Thirsteh> MatBoy, the advantage is you get the latest drivers, not the "stable" driver locked in the repository. There is no real downside as far as I can tell, it doesn't cause any conflicts because it acts like a new version of the standard driver and it's as easy to uninstall as typing 'sudo envy --remove-all' (if a new standard driver is released etc, nothing will break)
[22:36] <Detructor> CyaneideD: don't do that!
[22:36] <Friez> what's up ?
[22:36] <Detructor> ubuntu-restricted-extras is a meta package!
[22:36] <Thirsteh> MatBoy, for me, the stable driver caused freezes which I couldn't even SysRq out of X from, so it was ...heh, necessary
[22:37] <pike_> EnderTheThird: so ps aux | grep gnome-panel  shows a diff user?
[22:37] <Detructor> you will loose things like java as well
[22:37] <xyblor> rufus_: it doesn't seem to work, but maybe I just haven't made significant enough changes to xorg.conf to notice a change
[22:37] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, ok
[22:37] <doc|work> anyone know how to get the configure options for php? phpinfo() isn't reporting them

[22:38] <Thirsteh> Detructor, 'sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-restricted-extras' removes dependencies, 'sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-restricted-extras' doesn't.

[22:38] <ompaul> Friez,  my answer was based on the fact that over many lines I thought one thing, when in fact I later discovered you are talking about sip not ubuntu - you did not write it on one line so you did not come across well and so I misunderstood what you were saying

[22:39] <node_6> hi all
[22:39] <|unjustice|> hi
[22:39] <Starnestommy> Detructor: adept is, iirc.  Aptitude is command-line
[22:39] <Thirsteh> Detructor, Aptitude is a CLI front-end to the APT library, same as apt-get
[22:39] <CyanideD> that worked Peanut thanks
[22:39] <node_6> I added a repo for wine so that I could have more current packages.  How do I tell apt to disregard the wine packages in the standard repo?
[22:40] <Detructor> I've changed them again, damn >.< sorry
[22:40] <Thirsteh> Aptitude is the recommended default by Debian, but Ubuntu still seems to use apt-get, I don't know if that will change
[22:40] <mysterycool> Media change: please insert the disc labeled
[22:40] <mysterycool>  'Ubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon_ - Release i386 (20071016)'
[22:40] <mysterycool> in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter
[22:40] <mysterycool> :s
[22:40] <DaveG|> Hi, i've been playing about with the Screens and Graphics settings, and now text in the GDM and aMSN are now too small to read... Anyone have any ideas?
[22:40] <Thirsteh> the main difference is that aptitude removes unused dependencies by default, apt-get doesn't, unless you do apt-get autoremove
[22:40] <Thirsteh> so it boils down to: chaos if you remove metapackages with aptitude, but not with apt-get
[22:41] <L3ttuc3> Thirsteh what about synaptic?
[22:41] <mysterycool> Media change: please insert the disc labeled
[22:41] <mysterycool>  'Ubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon_ - Release i386 (20071016)'

[22:41] <mysterycool> why does that happen? :S
[22:41] <node_6> remove the cd-rom line from your sources.list file
[22:41] <Thirsteh> L3ttuc3, Synaptic is a GUI front-end to the apt-get APT library abstraction, ehhr.. It's apt-get :)
[22:41] <Detructor> because you have the cd in your package sources
[22:41] <node_6> (just comment it out with #)
[22:41] <node_6> I added a repo for wine so that I could have more current packages.  How do I tell apt to disregard the wine packages in the standard repo?

[22:41] <Thirsteh> I'm not sure Aptitude has any GTK/QT gui yet, but the builtin ncurses gui is pretty nice
[22:42] <L3ttuc3> Thirsteh is there a way to get synaptic to remove dependencies (whole metapackage and inclusions) like you were saying aptitude does by default?
[22:42] <Slart> node_6: I don

[22:42] <rufus_> I would really like to figure this out
[22:42] <vinc1> how to check ubuntu release ?
[22:42] <mysterycool> sudo apt-get install build-essential -> i type this and something wrong happens :S
[22:43] <Slart> vinc1: lsb_release -a
[22:43] <EnderTheThird> can i manually log another user off from the CLI?
[22:43] <Friez> ok thx
[22:43] <Friez> i find it
[22:43] <Slart> EnderTheThird: you can kill all his processes... install "slay"
[22:43] <Thirsteh> L3ttuc3, I don't know really, I've never actually wanted to remove everything a metapackage linked to -- but, even though mixing apt-get and aptitude isn't recommended, I guess, theoretically, you could just do 'sudo aptitude remove <metapackage>' as a onetime thing
[22:43] <Slart> !info slay
[22:43] <ubotu> slay (source: slay): Kills all of the user's processes. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.6.1 (gutsy), package size 10 kB, installed size 76 kB
[22:43] <node_6> Slart:  agreed on that point. however I have several scripts that use 'apt-config show' and I don't want two "wine"'s in the list

[22:43] <mysterycool> help plz with compiling a program! :s

[22:44] <woodsoul|away> mysterycool: uncheck in synaptic --> settings --> repos install from cd-rom
[22:44] <node_6> Slart: I was thinking there was a way to exclude specific pacakges
[22:44] <Slart> node_6: well.. I have no idea how to fix that for you.. perhaps someone else does
[22:44] <node_6> np. thanks :)
[22:44] <mysterycool> huh??
[22:44] <L3ttuc3> Thirsteh why do you say mixing them is ill advised? arent they all part of the same package management system?
[22:44] <Slart> mysterycool: something wrong happens??... way to be descriptive
[22:44] <thinman1189> I'm really confused. updates just recommended a new intel xorg driver. the thing is that I don't have any intel in my comp, unless intel owns one of the parts companies. my cpu is amd 64 and my gpu is nvidia. "This package provides the driver for the Intel i8xx and i9xx family of chipsets, including i810, i815, i830, i845, i855, i865, i915, i945 and i965 series chips." Why is it offering me this and should I be worried that it's incorrect
[22:44] <mysterycool> >.>
[22:44] <EnderTheThird> pike_:  killing that user's processes brought my CPU usage back down.
[22:45] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, what is the real advantage of that envy when you still have to make your own xorg.conf ?
[22:45] <pike_> EnderTheThird: k. it should respawn did it?
[22:45] <mysterycool> slart: i am trying to compile a program that i downloaded but i do what it says on the guides ive been told to check out from this channel but it doesnt work. :S
[22:45] <seon> hello do you know an equivalent of thunderbird i can use without export conditions
[22:45] <NigelS> thinman1189: a driver being installed doesn't mean that you're using it - your system will have drivers available for a wide range of hardware
[22:45] <ensignchirps> By your command, type ensignchirps status report if you require assistance
[22:45] <Ikkeson> Detructor: Bad news!!! I didn't work
[22:45] <EnderTheThird> pike_:  no.  that user isn't (or shouldn't be) logged in right now
[22:45] <NMajik> How can I resolve this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56142/?  The problem is, if you install a bunch of packages with apt-get deliberately and then later on decide to begin uninstalling with aptitude, aptitude won't know what packages you deliberately installed (i.e. NOT unused dependencies) and start removing stuff you might need
[22:46] <Detructor> Ikkeson: sorry for that...
[22:46] <Ikkeson> np
[22:46] <vinc1> thank u Slart
[22:46] <Detructor> I don't have any other idea
[22:46] <EnderTheThird> pike_:  that user is set to auto-login though.  i wonder if that's part of the reason behind it after the update.  i'll need to see what happens after i restart
[22:46] <Slart> seon: "export conditions"?? explain please
[22:46] <Detructor> Ikkeson: try to ask in the forum
[22:46] <leeping_> Hey there .. I've crashed to the initramfs during a startup
[22:46] <Ikkeson> i will
[22:46] <leeping_> Is there an analog of dmesg that I can use in the initramfs??
[22:46] <Thirsteh> MatBoy, you don't. Just tell it to not touch the xorg.config. The only thing it needs is "nvidia" as the module, and you can run with your old config, unless your config is simply invalid with newer drivers
[22:47] <mysterycool> Slart: says some stuff then this:
[22:47] <mysterycool> After unpacking 31.9MB of additional disk space will be used.
[22:47] <mysterycool> Do you want to continue [Y/n]?
[22:47] <seon> Slart> us export conditions sorry , iran, north korea

[22:54] <Thirsteh> fancy, hmm, there's a plugin you can enable in the advanced compiz settings that makes the "Show Desktop" button in the lower left in Gnome do something similar
[22:54] <cheesypieces> Detructor: yep that works, thanks
[22:54] <Thirsteh> it's just called "Show Desktop" I think
[22:55] <Detructor> and maybe sudo apt-get autoremove
[22:55] <NigelS> NMajik: you may be using the gcj release rather than suns - if you use synaptic you can find your java installs - just search for those, if you don't have the sun jre then install that - to choose between them in future you can use the update-alternatives --config java
[22:55] <Thirsteh> Detructor, no, it really isn't.
[22:55] <Detructor> it is * is a wildcard
[22:55] <Thirsteh> Yes, but your command is insane
[22:55] <Detructor> it works :P
[22:55] <Thirsteh> And it won't remove all of Kubuntu
[22:56] <Detructor> it will, over dependencies...you'll have to run sudo apt-get autoremove
[22:56] <woodsoul> fight ;]
[22:56] <kbrooks> this will:
[22:56] <kbrooks> this will ---------------------------
[22:56] <Thirsteh> Any package that's only used in KDE but not actually called 'kde' (libkde*, arts, etc) won't be removed

[22:56] <Thirsteh> Detructor, and well, it's simply dangerous
[22:56] <Detructor> Thirsteh: but then they are *not relevant* and will be wiped away with autoremove
[22:56] <cheesypieces> btw getting rid of kubuntu-desktop gets rid of hardly any

[22:57] <Thirsteh> Detructor, using wildcards like that with something as dangerous as a --purge toggle isn't exactly a good way of doing things

[22:59] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX

[22:59] <NMajik> NigelS: You were right I did have gcj and only bits and parts of sun's install. I'm downloading it now, will you be around for another 30 minutes or so?
[22:59] <kbrooks> !freenx
[22:59] <ubotu> FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX

[22:59] <mysterycool> This usually means that another package management application (like apt-get or aptitude) already running. Please close that application first.
[22:59] <pretender_> ok thanks
[22:59] <rufus_> do ubuntu and Kubuntu use the same kernel?
[22:59] <MrObvious> !lamp
[22:59] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)

[23:00] <fancy> Thirsteh, yes man Show Desktop did it..this is F10 in MacosX. Do you know what is f9 ? :P it cascades all the windows to desktop
[23:00] <Thirsteh> mysterycool, 'Add/Remove Programs' or 'Synaptic Package Manager' probably
[23:00] <Slart> mysterycool: synaptic.. the graphical application where you can install stuff... if you have it open.. close it
[23:00] <kbrooks> rufus_, *buntu are all based upon the same base
[23:00] <Slart> !synaptic > mysterycool
[23:01] <mysterycool> no i dont
[23:01] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, quite amazing that install
[23:01] <Thirsteh> fancy, no idea, sorry, but play around with the modules in compiz-config, there's a bunch that's deactivated
[23:01] <kotsu> Does it matter if the Swap partition comes before or after the Linux partitition (I'm trying to double boot, and my Linux install doesn't boot)
[23:01] <Malachi> Is there any way I can send a message to someone over SSH?  Do you know how?
[23:01] <Slart> Malachi: I don't think ssh can do that.. samba can
[23:01] <kotsu> In that order
[23:01] <kotsu> And the Windows boots from the get-go
[23:01] <Slart> kotsu: order doesn't matter
[23:01] <Malachi> Slart: That'd be fine, too. How?
[23:01] <CapTech> kotsu: It doesn't matter what order your logical drives are.
[23:01] <kbrooks> Malachi, there is a way which exploits a security vulnerability in ssh (which unfortunately is a bit too impractical to fix)
[23:02] <kbrooks> Slart, it can
[23:02] <scott25> can someone help me with my ipod, in amarok it says it could not create a lockfile on the ipod
[23:02] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, for surem thanks for convincing me :)
[23:02] <Slart> Malachi: smbclient -M 111.222.333.444
[23:02] <kbrooks> Slart, with X11 forwarding
[23:02] <mysterycool> slart: i dont
[23:02] <Syubi> ssh user@host is the syntax?
[23:02] <CyanideD> Can someone help me with getting my desktop on to my tv, i had it there before i switched over to linux
[23:02] <Malachi> kbrooks: Oh really? Ew. I smell Net Send problems if Linux gets a bit more mainstream....
[23:02] <Thirsteh> kotsu, it doesn't really matter. Some recommend putting Swap on the outer tracks ('Ending' of the drive in the partition manager, I think) but it's really a small difference if any
[23:02] <Malachi> Slart: Thanks.
[23:02] <kbrooks> Malachi, the remote host linux or windows please
[23:02] <Thirsteh> kotsu, so I wouldn't worry about it no
[23:02] <kotsu> So, then that's not the problem
[23:02] <Malachi> kbrooks: Both are Linux machines running Ubuntu.
[23:03] <Thirsteh> MatBoy, anytime
[23:03] <kotsu> But GRUB or however isn't working, if it was indeed installed by Feisty Fawn
[23:03] <FD_F> i`m runing ubuntu on vmware there is a way detect my 8800GT card ?
[23:03] <Slart> kbrooks: ah.. but that's part of x11 forwarding.. isnt't that like saying ssh can send email.... if you run an email client using a ssh console =)
[23:03] <kbrooks> Malachi, not so hard to do, here's the link ... (grabbing it)
[23:03] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, you are good ;)
[23:03] <Syubi> this syntax isn't working for me
[23:04] <Latina> Escriba el texto aquí........Hola buenas tardes
[23:04] <Slart> !es | latina
[23:04] <ubotu> latina: Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda.
[23:04] <Thirsteh> FD_F, no, I don't think so. The only virtualization software that really supports graphics acceleration is Parallels for Mac afaik
[23:04] <Thirsteh> MatBoy, heh, thanks
[23:04] <mysterycool> !compile | mysterycool
[23:04] <kbrooks> Malachi, http://www.hackinglinuxexposed.com/articles/20040608.html
[23:04] <saxofoner> Hey everyone, experienced user here, having some problems.  My sound was working on my Thinkpad T61p, but I was having a few issues, so I decided to install the new ALSA drivers.  Epic fail.  My sound card isn't even detected anymore.  I have the HDA Intel card that doesn't like ubuntu.  However, I HAVE had it working before.  I just need help totally purging alsa and starting over.
[23:04]  * woodsoul thought there isn't easier Gnu/Linux distro than ubuntu...
[23:04] <Thirsteh> FD_F, oh and Vmware Fusion, also for Mac
[23:04] <JosiahW> can I sync and update my palm treo 700wx through ubuntu?
[23:05] <CyanideD> Can someone help me with getting my desktop on to my tv, i had it there before i switched over to linux
[23:05] <Malachi> kbrooks, Slart, thanks to the both of you.
[23:05] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, but on that 2.6.22-14 kernel, my terminal will not start in XFCE... maybe because I run a 64 bits version that is not a good idea ?
[23:05] <Slart> Malachi: you're welcome
[23:05] <kbrooks> Malachi, the way to fix that is at the source, which is YOU. NEVER use X11 forwarding on servers that you don't trust that have X11
[23:05] <mysterycool> how do i compile a program???!
[23:05] <FD_F> Thirsteh: thanks
[23:06] <elhoir> hwllo, just a question
[23:06] <NigelS> mysterycool: any program in general or do you have one in mind? also, why? :)
[23:06] <nauticfriend> hello
[23:06] <plen0x_> mysterycool: apt-get install build-essentials
[23:06] <Slart> JosiahW: perhaps =/.. if it's anything like syncing a phone you've quite some work ahead of you
[23:06] <elhoir> how can i get running java in Ubuntu 7.10?
[23:06] <Thirsteh> MatBoy, try launching the terminal from some other terminal (xterm or something) and check the output. I doubt it's because you're on 64-bit
[23:06] <Malachi> kbrooks: Okay, thanks. I just need it to send a message to one of my clients since he doesn't use IM software.
[23:06] <elhoir> better, in firefox?
[23:06] <kbrooks> Malachi, ssh -x user@host to disable X11 forwarding, iirc
[23:06] <NigelS> elhoir: open synaptic, search for java and you can install it from there
[23:06] <Slart> !java | elhoir
[23:06] <JosiahW> Slart: it is a phone :) a smartphone/pda
[23:06] <ubotu> elhoir: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository (in !Backports for !Edgy)
[23:06] <Thirsteh> FD_F, welcome
[23:06] <woodsoul> mysterycool: please be patient...
[23:07] <EnderTheThird> pike_:  didn't have any trouble this time.  not sure what caused that, but i'm having normal cpu usage now
[23:07] <elhoir> ubotu: and for the applets? (firefox)
[23:07] <Slart> JosiahW: google for it.. +ubuntu +palm +treo ....
[23:07] <Latina>  Estoy perdida..
[23:07] <mysterycool> NigelS: i was trying to install aMSN but then it says i didnt have a tcl program reader or something with tcl error and i need to get a native ubuntu tcl thingy then i downloaded one tcl thingy but dont know how the hell i compile it! :2
[23:07] <mysterycool> * :@
[23:07] <JosiahW> Slart: I do and only get some forums that dont lead anywhere :(
[23:08] <NigelS> elhoir: ubotu is a bot. iirc the applet is installed with it, failing that - again, search the repo
[23:08] <elhoir> i have just installed sun-java6-plugin but does not work
[23:08] <|unjustice|> Anyone know how to find drivers for my realtek ALC880 sound card? My alsamixer cannot get my audio input jack to detect
[23:08] <Slart> JosiahW: well.. that usually means there isn't support yet.. sorry..

[23:09] <ubotu> Latina: The #ubuntu, #kubuntu and #xubuntu channels are english only. For a complete list of channels in other languages, please visit http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat
[23:09] <erUSUL> Latina: yo mismo; entra en #ubuntu-es
[23:09] <NigelS> mysterycool: are you certain that the required component isn't in the repository? if not then you'll have to follow the instructions - there are not general compilation instructions though many programs come with a configure script and then you need to run make
[23:09] <Latina> oh que bien, no me quiero ir de aquim se ve bueno esta sala
[23:09] <kbrooks> Malachi, be aware again that with the ingenuity as demostrated in that article a server owner can do unethical things to you if you a) have X (if you see a GUI login screen when you boot, you probably do) and b) haven't disabled X forwarding
[23:09] <steve176> Hi, My Western Digital USB Passport Drive doesn't appear under ubuntu 7.10. Works fine in XP and from earlier versions of Ubuntu. Any ideas?
[23:09] <Thirsteh> mysterycool, I doubt you need to compile anything, you just need the TCL/TK -dev packages from the repository
[23:09] <mysterycool> repository? wtf is that? :s
[23:10] <erUSUL> Latina: en tu cliente irc « /join #ubuntu-es » . En esta sala no se puede hablar otro idioma que no sea inglés
[23:10] <Slart> steve176: I have one of those too.. it works nicely in ubuntu... needs a properly power-supplied usb port though
[23:10] <kbrooks> Malachi, I'll leave it at that
[23:10] <erUSUL> !repos | mysterycool
[23:10] <ubotu> mysterycool: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories
[23:10] <tyrone> steve176 try manually mounting it
[23:10] <Malachi> kbrooks: Yeah, thanks for the warning. Actually, I have a copy of that book. I don't remember reading that....
[23:10] <Slart> mysterycool: repositories are huuge software archives.. like a ftp server.. where you can get your software for ubuntu
[23:10] <JosiahW> Slart: well, maybe I can get something going through wine
[23:10] <steve176> Slart - same machine is dual booted to WinXP and works on the same USB port
[23:10] <Syubi> how does the ssh command work? ssh user@host ?
[23:10] <Slart> steve176: have you tried mounting it manually?
[23:10] <erUSUL> !ssh | Syubi
[23:11] <ubotu> Syubi: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[23:11] <kbrooks> Malachi, and you may be observant enough to conclude that X security is VERY primitive
[23:11] <Slart> JosiahW: give it a try.. though I think getting usb connectivity working with wine might be tricky as well
[23:11] <kotsu> Eh, hopefully I'm not being repetitious here, but I didn't get the reply I was looking for earlier
[23:11] <kotsu> I'm having issues with GRUB
[23:11] <kotsu> That is to say, it doesn't show up
[23:11] <tyrone> steve176, try manually mounting it manually from the terminal http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=678047 that page will give you some information they talk about a seagate but it will help you too
[23:11] <mysterycool> slart: how do i get that tcl/tl whatever from the repository?
[23:11] <NigelS> elhoir: what does about:plugins from within firefox say about its currently install components? you may need to switch from using gcj using update-alternatives --config java
[23:12] <steve176> Not yet, will try
[23:12] <Malachi> kbrooks: Mm. I'd think it'd be more secure than what it looks like....
[23:12] <tyrone> steve176, mount it as ntfs not as ext3
[23:12] <Slart> !info tcl
[23:12] <ubotu> Package tcl does not exist in gutsy
[23:12] <Slart> !tcl
[23:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tcl - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[23:12] <NMajik> NigelS: OK, installed the new java packages but getting the same errors, any further insight?
[23:12] <Malachi> kbrooks: I suppose since a lot of servers don't run X, it's not TOO significant, but still....
[23:12] <elhoir> Nigels: what?? i dont know how to do that... im newbie :-P
[23:12] <Slart> bah.. ubotu.. no dessert for you..
[23:12] <Slart> mysterycool: why do you need tcl? what are you installing?
[23:12] <kotsu> ..eh.
[23:13] <NigelS> mysterycool: if you don't know really basic details at this stage you prob shouldn't be trying to compile software - go ahead and read some docs; i.e. open up synaptic and search for tcl
[23:13] <Thirsteh> Slart, aMSN, he needs the header files (-dev)
[23:13] <steve176> thanks, although think I'll need to mount is as FAT
[23:13] <Slart> Thirsteh: isn
[23:13] <CapTech> Has anyone gotten RealPlayer to work on Gutsy 64-bit?
[23:13] <kbrooks> Malachi, BTW there is ##security to discuss security
[23:13] <Slart> GGARAHAHRHAHA.. sorry.. had a quick fit of rage over my keyboard..
[23:13] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, and still again not starting after booting :S
[23:14] <Slart> Thirsteh: isn't amsn in the repos?
[23:14] <Malachi> kbrooks: Oh, nice insinuation. I'm leaving anyway.
[23:14] <NigelS> elhoir: in the browser address bar - type about:plugins then firefox will list its installed plugins, see what it thinks is installed (I'm assuming you've restarted all FF instances since installing java)
[23:14] <mysterycool> slart: i am trying to install aMSN a linux version of msn messenger (quite like it basically) and it needs that tcl/tk whatever thingy
[23:14] <kbrooks> Malachi, bye :-)
[23:14] <tyrone> Slart, I am sure amsn is in the repos I use it ^^
[23:14] <Thirsteh> Slart, yep, guessing he either needs a newer version or he hasn't seen "Add/Remove"/"Synaptic"
[23:14] <Slart> !info amsn
[23:14] <ubotu> amsn (source: amsn): An MSN messenger written in Tcl. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.97RC1+dfsg-0ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 3371 kB, installed size 10956 kB
[23:14] <cappiz> would<PHONE_NUMBER>3 be a free number to call in the UK?
[23:15] <kbrooks> mysterycool, go into synaptic search for amsn install it, or simply in the terminal type sudo apt-get install amsn
[23:15] <tyrone> mysterycool, you can just go to Application, Add and Remove programs
[23:15] <Slart> mysterycool: run this in a terminal "sudo apt-get install amsn"
[23:15] <fredsua> Can anyone help me install a samsumg printer driver scx-4100 using terminal?  I have instructions how to properly install the driver but as a newbiew, I have no clue how to use terminal.
[23:15] <_Oz_> Ubuntu friends: how can I get alternate login screens/splash screens installed into Ubuntu?
[23:15] <Slart> mysterycool: or on second thought... do what tyrone told you.. it's easier
[23:15] <kbrooks> _Oz_:
[23:15] <elhoir> NigelS: no java plugin, but i have just installed it :S
[23:15] <kbrooks> !gdm | _Oz_
[23:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gdm - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[23:15] <Thirsteh> MatBoy, what terminal are you using in XFCE? gnome-terminal?
[23:15] <kbrooks> _Oz_, erm
[23:15] <elhoir> NigelS: i dont understand
[23:16] <Slart> mysterycool: or what kbrooks said.. basically they are all easier than what I wrote =)
[23:16] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, XFCE, but it tries to start with errors again
[23:16] <NigelS> elhoir: how did you install it? from the repository?
[23:16] <marky_mark47> anyone had problems with an ATI Radeon card? After 4 months of no problems, now every second boot my monitor image is squashed and the fonts are small.
[23:16] <_Oz_> GDM?
[23:16] <Ikkeson> detructor??
[23:17] <Toastin> I need help with a general installation...
[23:17] <kbrooks> _Oz_, ok, for the login screen, go to system > admin > login window
[23:17] <Thirsteh> MatBoy, can you show me the error, and if you can't see it/them, can you try launching the terminal from another terminal (so you get any output)
[23:17] <NigelS> NMajik: if you're sure that you're now actually using Suns JRE then I'm not sure - have you tried resetting your router before trying again? You should prob check any mailing list these guys have
[23:17] <elhoir> NigelS: i firstly installed from rep, sun-java6-plugin, but it didnt work, then i installed from firefoix
[23:17] <_Oz_> yes?
[23:17] <daysleepr> hello all, how can i get the 'home' and 'end' keys to work in terminal?
[23:17] <Ikkeson> where can  ifind info on how-to install tgz and tar.bz2 drivers
[23:18] <kbrooks> _Oz_, then go to the local tab. press add, and just a second lemme look for login themes
[23:18] <speeddemon8803> !tgz | lkkeson
[23:18] <ubotu> lkkeson: Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression
[23:18] <steve176> Great, that worked. Any idea if it will it automatically mount in future?
[23:18] <rufus_> how do I tell what number a partition is? like to find out what /dev/sda2 is
[23:18] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, I have the idea itś my 8600GT + 2.6.22-14 kernel
[23:18] <_Oz_> thanks
[23:18] <_Oz_> how do I install login themes, though?
[23:18] <kbrooks> _Oz_, i just explained
[23:18] <tyrone> steve176, don't forget to safely remove hardware everytime you log out of windows and it should work fine
[23:19] <elhoir> NigelS: Now i have both java5 and java6 installed but dont work
[23:19] <Thirsteh> MatBoy, when you say terminal, do you mean the graphical interface or a normal terminal in which you enter commands?
[23:19] <kbrooks> _Oz_, go here to find a theme http://www.gnome-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=150&PHPSESSID=28ea545c9ab5183d4dcc496d7c08b93d
[23:19] <Toastin> my PC won't install ubuntu.
[23:19] <tyrone> steve176, it usually works better if you plug it in before booting

[23:19] <mikebot> I ran an install script as root, and now I'm trying to uninstall it...how do I do that?
[23:19] <NigelS> elhoir: right - that could have messed things up somewhat - if you mean that you downloaded Suns package, then I'm not sure as to where it installs its plugin
[23:19] <rufus_> i tried /dev/sda2 as being partition 2, but GRUB said it didnt exist
[23:19] <mikebot> Oh, nvm.
[23:19] <mikebot> Thanks.
[23:19] <daysleepr> no word on getting the home key to work in terminal?
[23:19] <tyrone> Toastin, what does it say?
[23:20] <NigelS> elhoir: let's see what is going on; first off what do you see when you type update-alternatives --config java
[23:20] <kbrooks> _Oz_, when u have downloaded a theme you can go there and either press the add button and find the theme or drag and drop the theme file into the list
[23:20] <Toastin> Nothing. I get a blank screen with a white cursor in the top-left corner.
[23:20] <tyrone> daysleepr, it works fine on mine
[23:20] <tyrone> Toastin, what have you done
[23:20] <tyrone> ?
[23:20] <Silerx> anybody wanna explain why i ordered my fiestyfawn free cd like 5 months ago and am still waiting for it?
[23:21] <elhoir> Nigels: i am in another pc with the irc, please wait a minute
[23:21] <daysleepr> :-/
[23:21] <Toastin> I inserted a disc with the .iso file on it into my cd drive, pressed enter and it was supposed to start mounting
[23:21] <Toastin> but it never did
[23:21] <DjViper> Toastin: you need to burn the .iso file AS a cd image
[23:21] <mysterycool> slart: its not working
[23:21] <speeddemon8803> Silerx...you can check on the status of your order at the shipit website...it will say request not approved if it didnt go through.
[23:21] <speeddemon8803> !shipit
[23:21] <tyrone> Toastin, don't copy it burn it

[23:22] <Toastin> well it was from "ubuntu linux for dummies" they guaranteed it would work
[23:22] <Thirsteh> MatBoy, ah, you meant X. I'm sorry, I have to go, try googling "FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia", a bunch of people seem to have had similar problems

[23:22] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, yes I know... I will... 0:30 here also again :)
[23:22] <Silerx> i keep checking it and it says that it sent it as well as the gusty gibbon cd i ordered like a couple of weeks ago and that hasent shown up yet either.
[23:22] <kbrooks> Silerx, dont wait anymore, go buy a CD of gutsy gibbon
[23:22] <Slart> mysterycool: I've never used amsn.. I can't help you with those errors.. ask the channel
[23:22] <MatBoy> Thirsteh, thanks so far :)
[23:23] <speeddemon8803> I agree with slart
[23:23] <mysterycool> anybody can help with aMSN?
[23:23] <kbrooks> Silerx, well it can take a LONG time to deliver the cd to you
[23:23] <elhoir_> NigelS: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56146/
[23:23] <ATG> Hm. Anyone here have experience with Azureus?
[23:23] <Silerx> i already downloaded it and burned it but i want to know why it didnt come even thogh it should have.
[23:23] <speeddemon8803> or...if you have a good connection to the internet, download the iso file and burn it to a cd
[23:23] <tyrone> mysterycool, you don't. Run amsn from the terminal and look at the error
[23:23] <tyrone> s
[23:23] <mikebot> When I rm something (or rm -r something), where does it go?
[23:23] <kbrooks> Silerx, it just can take a long time.
[23:23] <Slart> mikebot: is this a philosophical question?
[23:23] <ATG> I just reinstalled it,  and I used to be sharing a bunch of torrents, but I'm not entirely sure hwo to share them again.... anyone have an idea?
[23:23] <mysterycool> tyrone: and i do that how? its my first day on linux -_-
[23:24] <kbrooks> Silerx, you arent paying them
[23:24] <Pici> mikebot: it doesnt 'go' anywhere. its gone.
[23:24] <Kuroachia> Any recommendations on an app that will track wifi points in the area?
[23:24] <mikebot> Pici: I thought it could be recovered.
[23:24] <Silerx> @kbrooks, i know it can take a long time but 5 months?!?
[23:24] <mikebot> Slart: Heh, unfortunately no.
[23:24] <kbrooks> mikebot, it's removed from the hard drive permanently
[23:24] <Toastin> tyrone: it was a purchased disc, came with a "for dummies" book
[23:24] <kbrooks> mikebot, permanently as in  it WILL be overwritten
[23:24] <Slart> mikebot: it's gone.. poof.. ceased to be.. an ex-file if you wish =)
[23:24] <mikebot> Then what's the difference between rm and shred?
[23:24] <bAndie91> hi all
[23:24] <tyrone> mysterycool, ok open a terminal
[23:24] <NigelS> elhoir_: ok, now go to /usr/lib/firefox/plugins and type: ls -al
[23:24] <tyrone> mysterycool, and type amsn
[23:24] <bAndie91> i 'd like to use infra port to send/receive files with my handphone
[23:25] <kbrooks> mikebot, shred just makes it even MORE harder to recover the file
[23:25] <tyrone> Toastin, I can't help you then ask the dummies book
[23:25] <kbrooks> mikebot, by overwriting the file
[23:25] <Ikkeson> Can ubuntu use RPM packages?? Or if not where can i find info on compiling, because i found the sources, but i don't have a clue on what to do witi these sources. noob for life i guess
[23:25] <kbrooks> mikebot, many, many times
[23:25] <mikebot> kbrooks: Oh, hehe, OK...can you shred folders?
[23:25] <kbrooks> mikebot, no.
[23:25] <Liono>  while adding users. there a primary group and theres an secondary group options. what do secondary group option do?
[23:25] <mark4> ok so i just put a dvd in my drive and its popped up the dvd creator file browser.  is it possible to make a backup of my / partition in here?
[23:25] <Jordan> if i install the server edition, can i add a GUI to it?
[23:25] <mark4> its live. im booted to it
[23:25] <Scunizi> !permissions > Scunizi
[23:25] <mysterycool> tyrone: it just poped up amsn now but no error :s
[23:25] <mikebot> kbrooks: OK, thanks a lot for your help..
[23:25] <mikebot> Bye all.
[23:25] <kbrooks> mikebot, uum
[23:25] <kbrooks> mikebot, stop
[23:25] <speeddemon8803> !alien | lkkeson
[23:25] <ubotu> lkkeson: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[23:25] <tyrone> mysterycool, try loggin in
[23:25] <mikebot> ?
[23:25] <Slart> mikebot: I'm not sure.. shred might write stuff over the file repeatedly so it's harder to recover
[23:25] <elhoir_> NigelS: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56147/
[23:25] <bAndie91> bye
[23:26] <mysterycool> its logging in! ;)
[23:26] <mikebot> Slart: Thanks.
[23:26] <blizzkid> lo all, anyone can help me troubleshoot postfix and mailman integration? I keep getting user unknown errors
[23:26] <bAndie91> hi!
[23:26] <bAndie91> i 'd like to use infra port to send/receive files with my handphone
[23:26] <kbrooks> mikebot, i can give you my email so that you can contact me for more help iif you want
[23:26] <mysterycool> :o
[23:26] <mysterycool> it works! :>
[23:26] <Liono> while adding users. there a primary group and theres an secondary group options. what do secondary group option do? those are : audio, cdrom, dialout, floppy, lpadmin, plugdev, scanner, video
[23:26] <mysterycool> :D :D :)
[23:26] <mysterycool> tyrone and slart: thanks :D
[23:26] <mikebot> kbrooks: No, that's really all I needed.
[23:26] <MasterMel> Where can i find my trahs folder in ubuntu?
[23:26] <kbrooks> mikebot, ok bye
[23:26] <Slart> you're welcome, mysterycool
[23:26] <Silerx> yah mysterycool no biggie...
[23:26] <mikebot> Bye.
[23:27] <kbrooks> MasterMel, it's in ~/.Trash
[23:27] <Jordan> can i add a gui to the server edition?
[23:27] <Slart> MasterMel: all over the place.. there's one in your home folder.. and one on each drive I think... search for folders named .Trash
[23:27] <mysterycool> ;)
[23:27] <mysterycool> :D
[23:27] <kbrooks> Jordan, yes
[23:27] <Ikkeson> Because i only can find the RPM packages,  where can i find info on compiling, because i found the sources, but i don't have a clue on what to do witi these sources. noob for life i guess
[23:27] <kbrooks> Jordan, it's fine to...
[23:27] <|unjustice|> Hi
[23:27] <Jordan> kbrooks: how?
[23:27] <kbrooks> Jordan, but servers dont NEED a gui
[23:27] <erUSUL> Liono: a user can be member of many groups e first one it enters is the primary one but there is no actual difference between primary and secondary
[23:27] <mysterycool> hey does anybody know if u gotta pay for a virtual machine? (just asking cuz i am searching it for something that i wanna do :p)
[23:27] <bAndie91> Jordan: apt-get install x-window-system
[23:27] <tyrone> mysterycool, np ^^ you one the first guys i've helped i am a noob too but i am learning!!
[23:27] <kbrooks> Jordan, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[23:28] <NigelS> elhoir_: ok, and ls -al /etc/alternatives/firefox-javaplugin.so
[23:28] <kbrooks> bAndie91, no...
[23:28] <Jordan> ok
[23:28] <kbrooks> mysterycool, not really
[23:28] <kbrooks> mysterycool, er i misunderstood
[23:28] <Jordan> i know they dont need it, but i dont know linux commands
[23:28] <bAndie91> kbrooks: whats no?
[23:28] <tyrone> mysterycool, from VMware?
[23:28] <kbrooks> mysterycool, no - a flat no
[23:28] <mysterycool> kbrooks: ?
[23:28] <NigelS> elhoir_: you may also have plugins installed in your home dir in ~/.mozilla - make sure this isn't so as they could override the default
[23:28] <kbrooks> mysterycool, hmm...
[23:28] <Liono> erUSUL ok. and that will increase its privaliges?   where can i  know the privilages of each group? and what groups are sudoers? need details
[23:28] <Merkidemis> Why is it when I try to execute a .bin file in bash I get a -bash: ./whatever.bin: No such file or directory?  I have done a chmod +x to it and have tried running it via sudo as well
[23:28] <kbrooks> mysterycool, rephrase your question
[23:28] <mysterycool> so i can like get a free virtual machine and run another os on it and access it via my pc? and this is free? :s
[23:28] <NigelS> elhoir_: if everything looks ok we can try deleting your plugins data file then ff will rebuild it
[23:29] <bAndie91> i 'd like to use infra port to send/receive files with my handphone
[23:29] <speeddemon8803> Jordan, you do realize that eventually you will have to learn linux commands...even the GUI version has to dig into a CLI sometimes.
[23:29] <kbrooks> mysterycool, you can't "get" a free VM
[23:29] <kbrooks> mysterycool, you have to "make" one ;-)
[23:29] <mysterycool> ..?
[23:29] <mysterycool> make..?
[23:29] <Jordan> speeddemon8803, i know
[23:29] <MagoonD> Hello
[23:29] <tyrone> mysterycool, yes the software for the virtual machine is not free unless it is linuz
[23:29] <tyrone> linux*
[23:29] <kbrooks> mysterycool, as in, you need to create a new virtual hard disk
[23:29] <MagoonD> mates I just installed ubuntu but my mouse is real slow I have set it to max is there any other way to increase the speed?
[23:29] <speeddemon8803> kbrooks...i actually followed that lol
[23:29] <kbrooks> tyrone, not so
[23:29] <Jordan> i'd rather ease into linux...like i did w/ ms-dos lol
[23:30] <mysterycool> and where is this virtual hard disk stored? :s
[23:30] <elhoir_> NigelS: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56148/
[23:30] <kbrooks> mysterycool, anywhere you want. can i show you?
[23:30] <speeddemon8803> linux cli and dos are somewhat similar...
[23:30] <tyrone> mysterycool, in you hard drive. it is just a big file
[23:30] <mysterycool> kbrooks: yes plz!
[23:30] <Scunizi> Where are usb flash memory sticks mounted by default?
[23:30] <mysterycool> tyrone: yes..?
[23:30] <NigelS> elhoir_: aha, well we've found the fault
[23:30] <mysterycool> tyrone: so it is basically in your own pc..? :p
[23:31] <tyrone> mysterycool, yeah
[23:31] <elhoir> what is the problem?
[23:31] <speeddemon8803> !usb | scunizi

[23:31] <Merkidemis> How do I execute .bin files?
[23:31] <Slart> Scunizi: /media/disk is one place
[23:31] <mysterycool> tyrone: and what are they exactly used for? i mean what is the purpose anw?
[23:31] <speeddemon8803> oops
[23:31] <Slart> Scunizi: but always a folder in /media
[23:31] <speeddemon8803> dont follow that, i forgot that was for installing from usb, not usb mount points :/
[23:31] <rufus_> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4338884
[23:31] <pike_> Merkidemis: chmod +x file or right click and make executabe in permissions
[23:31] <rufus_> maybe someone can help?
[23:32] <tyrone> mysterycool, it is just a program that will let you run a machine. To tun windows on ubuntu maybe, fun whatever
[23:32] <Jordan> they are'nt that similar; ms-dos commands are more logical
[23:32] <kbrooks> mysterycool, do you accept private messages? did you see my pm?
[23:32] <bAndie91> i 'd like to use infra port to send/receive files with my handphone, what program should i use?
[23:32] <Ikkeson> Where can i find info on compiling? I have source codes to a driver, but i am still a noob on Linux.
[23:32] <Scunizi> Slart, I formatted it a while ago and gave it a name of "EDGY". there is a listing in /media for EDGY but I can't cd into it.  for some reason .. I think it's a permission problem and am investigating.

[23:33] <NigelS> elhoir: for some reason, I'm not sure why the wrong link has been made even though alternatives thinks it is right, so:
[23:33] <Merkidemis> pike: I am trying to run from my home directory, does that need to be +x too?
[23:33] <Slart> Scunizi: try "sudo chmod a+rw /media/edgy"... replace /media/edgy with the correct path
[23:33] <pike_> Merkidemis: you are not in the correct directory. type ls to list contents of the dir  then youll see Desktop so cd Desktop and ls again youll see the file and if you run chmod now itll work
[23:33] <Liono> what groups are sudoer groups by default?
[23:33] <Scunizi> Slart, thanks I'll try.. it had a dirty unmount and then was inaccessable.
[23:33] <Pici> Liono: admin
[23:33] <Liono> Pici any more?
[23:34] <solexious> [Q] What is the default install folder for programs using the apt-get command?
[23:34] <bAndie91> liono: see /etc/sudoers
[23:34] <Merkidemis> pike: I am in the correct directory.  ls lists the files, I can chmod it without error

[23:35] <Slart> solexious: google for linux folder hierarchy or something... there is a plan behind the madness =)

[23:39] <peepsalot> anyone here use firefox extensions for keeping track of your bookmarks across computers?  i can't decide what I should use.  del.icio.us, foxmarks, google bookmarks, sync2it, etc.
[23:39] <eekrano> MagoonD, yes.
[23:40] <pocketdrummer> vladanian: So, I was told that linux doesn't install things to a designated folder (like program files in windows), so how do you know where things are installed?
[23:40] <NigelS> elhoir_: what does about:plugins show? what was the feedback from making the link?
[23:40] <tyrone> MagoonD, yes everyone when they don't know the answer they don;t say anything usually
[23:40] <adrian> hey does anyone know how to keep sound going in Ubuntu i don't have a sound card i just have onborad sound on the mother and sound will play sometimes then just quit any ideas on if i need any drivers installed or anything
[23:40] <MagoonD> eekrano, how do I increase my my speed when i set ti to fast but its still real slow?
[23:40] <CyanideD> can someone help my getting my desktop back onto my tv i had it before i moved over to linux
[23:40] <vladanian> pocketdrummer: it's a linux convention to put programs in /usr/bin/
[23:40] <_Oz_> kbrooks: when I download it...  how do I install?
[23:40] <Liono> why i cant see etc/sudoers    i have enabled to show hidden files
[23:40] <bAndie91> do anyone use irda utils?
[23:40] <vladanian> pocketdrummer: linux does put things in specific places -- by convention -- but just like windows, the files could be installed anywhere
[23:40] <kbrooks> _Oz_, when u have downloaded a theme you can go there and either press the add button and find the theme or drag and drop the theme file into the list
[23:40] <eekrano> MagoonD, that depends on why its so slow... what h/w are you running?
[23:41] <Merkidemis> pike: /home/merkidemis/hldsupdatetool.bin: no such file or directory.  This is the full path to the file I am trying to run.
[23:41] <pocketdrummer> vladanian: oh ok, thanks man
[23:41] <elhoir_> NigelS: it says that i have shockwave, VLC, totem, Windows Media Player 10, DivX and QuickTime
[23:41] <xobius> rufus_, did you config the grub?
[23:41] <vladanian> pocketdrummer: my pleasure
[23:41] <MagoonD> i am running ibm x41 tabled ubuntu gutsy, the mouse is a track point build into the keyboard one of those ibm red bubble mice
[23:41] <MagoonD> eekrano,
[23:41] <NigelS> elhoir_: you can try reinstalling the plugin with apt-get install --reinstall sun-java6-plugin
[23:41] <eekrano> MagoonD, ....
[23:42] <vladanian> Does anyone know where the splash image that appears during boot is stored, or where its size is configured?
[23:42] <NigelS> elhoir_: also, try deleting pluginreg.dat from ~/.mozilla and ~/.mozilla/firefox
[23:42] <MagoonD> eekrano,  its real fast in windows just slow in ubuntu
[23:42] <pike_> Merkidemis: try using tab completion maybe youre just missing the case or something
[23:42] <pocketdrummer> vladanian: So, should I point it to Rhythymbox or Rhythymbox-client?
[23:42] <Slart> vladanian: it's compiled into an executable I think..
[23:42] <adrian> does anyone know how to make sound quit turning off automatically
[23:43] <eekrano> MagoonD, need to be a bit more specific... slow with graphics, loading applications, all?
[23:43] <Slart> vladanian: google for "ubuntu splash create" there is a howto for the older version of splash screne
[23:43] <adrian> i have onboard sound so i'm not sure why it shuts off once in a while
[23:43] <elhoir_> NigelS: reinstalled, i have closed firefox
[23:43] <vladanian> Slart: I overstated my display size when I installed initially, and ever since, I can't boot w/o axing "splash" from my grub config
[23:43] <Slart> vladanian: using nvidia?
[23:43] <Merkidemis> pike: Same thing.
[23:43] <vladanian> Slart: ati
[23:43] <MagoonD> eekrano, slow with movement acceleration and sensitivity
[23:44] <Merkidemis> pike: is ubuntu server set up differntly to not allow this somehow?
[23:44] <vladanian> pocketdrummer: I'd try rhythmbox -- but it's weird that it doesn't appear in the list for you, since it does for me
[23:44] <Slart> vladanian: I don't know how to do that.. my splash has never worked.. perhaps you can reinstall the splash you have now
[23:44] <aboed> vladanian: resolution conf stored in /etc/usplash.conf
[23:44] <_Oz_> kbrooks: got it to work.  Didn't understand that you leave the theme ARCHIVED before adding.
[23:44] <NigelS> elhoir_: did the link work? what does ls -al /etc/alternatives/firefox-javaplugin.so say now?
[23:44] <eekrano> MagoonD, what does glxgears give you for fps?
[23:44] <vladanian> aboed: sweet, thanks

[23:46] <MagoonD> eekrano, yes i do
[23:46] <xobius> rufus_,  did you config the grub?
[23:46] <Merkidemis> pike: it makes no sense.  it looks like it SHOULD be able to run just fine, but doesn't

[23:46] <_Oz_> slart: please describe what is involved so I may determine if it is something I want to undertake.
[23:47] <NigelS> elhoir_: that would be why it didn't work :)
[23:47] <pike_> Merkidemis: seems odd. dunno man
[23:47] <pocketdrummer> Vladanian: Tried both in usr/bin, neither work. It opens Rhythymbox, but they won't play.
[23:47] <eekrano> MagoonD, are you using a gfx card or just whatever came with the mobo?
[23:47] <TKingdom> Anyone know if the package "unrar" will properly extract split archives?
[23:47] <Slart> !splash
[23:47] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[23:47] <Merkidemis> pike: odd is exactly the reason I came here.
[23:47] <vladanian> pocketdrummer: you put in /usr/bin/rhythmbox in the "use a custom command" box and it didn't work?
[23:47] <pike_> Merkidemis: ls |grep .bin | xargs -i bash {}   :-)
[23:47] <MagoonD> eekrano, graphics card in laptop
[23:47] <Slart> !usplash
[23:47] <ubotu> To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[23:47] <eekrano> ah
[23:47] <pocketdrummer> vladanian: Yep.
[23:47] <vladanian> pocketdrummer: are you sure it's installed?
[23:47] <Slart> there is a link there, _Oz_
[23:48] <scjp_> anybody here who can help me out with oracle because oracle is not listening the http port 6065 ??
[23:48] <elhoir_> NigelS:: what could i do?
[23:48] <_Oz_> slart: that doesn't seem too bad.
[23:48] <_Oz_> slart: thanks for that.
[23:48] <Aquahallic> did Terminal Server Client pakage update and get borked?
[23:48] <Slart> _Oz_: you
[23:48] <vladanian> pocketdrummer: I just did exactly that on my machine and it worked
[23:48] <astro76> Merkidemis: do you want to pastebin the output of ls -l in the directory the .bin should be in? not sure what else to tell you ;)
[23:48] <Slart> _Oz_: you're welcome.. I'll be sure to pass all questions about it to you then ;)
[23:48] <NigelS> elhoir_: what's the contents of /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun ?
[23:48] <eekrano> MagoonD, try turning off some of the "nice to have's" like wobbly windows and rotating cube for a moment and tell me if you see a speed difference
[23:48] <kinections> where would I find the .config for the ubuntu hardy heron kernel?
[23:48] <pocketdrummer> vladanian: Maybe I should reinstall? I mean, I can open rhythymbox and play it, but I can launch rhythymbox by clicking on the song... it's weird.
[23:48] <Merkidemis> pike: after the grep -> hldsupdatetool.bin: cannot execute binary file
[23:48] <rustmonster> flashplugin-nonfree on 64-bit gutsy fails the md5 test after downloading the tgz from adobe...
[23:49] <rustmonster> does flash plugin work on 64 bit?
[23:49] <Slart> rustmonster: again?
[23:49] <amenado> rufus_-> what is the problem?  hda vs sda ?
[23:49] <MagoonD> eekrano, i just turned everything off when you mentioned it and same thing
[23:49] <_Oz_> Slart: this link describes the procedure for Edgy.  I'm running Gutsy.  Is it still good?
[23:49] <Slart> rustmonster: it works for me now on 64-bit
[23:49] <rustmonster> Slart: what do you mean?
[23:49] <astro76> Merkidemis: also what is the *exact* command you are trying which is failing?
[23:49] <pocketdrummer> Vladanian: In fact, it doesn't work if I right-click and tell it to use rhythymbox...
[23:49] <eekrano> MagoonD, you're using compiz i assume?
[23:49] <Merkidemis> astro: ./hldsupdatetool.bin
[23:49] <Slart> _Oz_: oh.. it might have changed.. I think I read something about gutsy using a newer version or something..
[23:49] <vladanian> pocketdrummer: it just does nothing?
[23:49] <MagoonD> eekrano,  yes
[23:49] <elhoir_> NigelS: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56151/
[23:49] <pike_> Merkidemis: ls -l should show like : -rwxr-xr-x  the x is the executable bit that has been set.
[23:50] <_Oz_> Slart: damn!  That's the only downside to the documentation...  it constantly gets outdated.
[23:50] <eekrano> MagoonD, do you have the same problem if you're using metacity?
[23:50] <Slart> rustmonster: I use the flash plugin for 64bit.. it was broken about 2 weeks ago but got fixed
[23:50] <rustmonster> the filename is version 9
[23:50] <MagoonD> eekrano, i dont have metacity what is that?
[23:50] <danh1> I wanted to install kvm from hardy.....I have gutsy setup now
[23:50] <Merkidemis> astro: -rwxr-xr-x 1 merkidemis merkidemis 3513408 2008-02-11 18:56 hldsupdatetool.bin
[23:50] <|twiser|> can ark handle .rar files?
[23:50] <rustmonster> hm... okay...
[23:50] <danh1> how can I setup pinning to download kvm from hardy?
[23:51] <Merkidemis> astro: see, this is why after a lot of swearing I came here
[23:51] <pike_> Merkidemis: and ./hldsupdatetool.bin  does nothing?
[23:51] <Slart> danh1: why not just download the deb and install that only
[23:51] <rustmonster> oh well, i'll run windows for the time being and reinstall gutsy later
[23:51] <Slart> _Oz_: indeed.. there might be something newer out there.. I haven't found it though
[23:51] <eekrano> MagoonD, if you do "metacity --replace" in a terminal does that speed things up?
[23:51] <astro76> Merkidemis: indeed
[23:52] <NigelS> elhoir_: did you copy and paste what I typed before or type it accross? maybe you made a typo?from that directory do you have a jre/plugin/i386/ns7 dir?
[23:52] <Merkidemis> pike: it spits out the "no such file or directory" error, even though it lets me tab complete the name
[23:52] <rufus_> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4338884
[23:52] <rufus_> maybe someone can help?
[23:52] <_Oz_> kbrooks or slart: I can't seem to change my "theme" in Gutsy despite downloading a new one from Gnome-Look.  When I go to install, I select the tarball and it says invalid format.  Thoughts?
[23:52] <Slart> |twiser|: I don't know about ark.. but file-roller handles rar-files.. if you install rar first
[23:52] <_Oz_> (For the login screen, the tarball was fine.)
[23:52] <pocketdrummer> vladanian: Well, it opens, then says not playing (where the track information goes when you play a song)... then closes rhythmbox altogether.
[23:52] <MagoonD> eekrano, no it doesnt
[23:52] <Slart> _Oz_: nope.. no idea.. haven't really tried downloading new themes
[23:52] <astro76> Merkidemis: what if you do 'sh hldsupdatetool.bin'
[23:53] <johnny_> anyone know a good pastebin
[23:53] <danh1> Slart: How can I find/download the deb?
[23:53] <Pici> !paste | johnny_
[23:53] <eekrano> MagoonD, did your effects go away?
[23:53] <ubotu> johnny_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)

[23:53] <|twiser|> so sorry
[23:53] <danh1> Slart: I mean, I know it's on the repository, but I had no idea i could just apt-get the particular deb
[23:53] <MagoonD> eekrano, yes they did I select non to turn compiz off too
[23:53] <Merkidemis> astro: syntax error: "(" unexpected
[23:53] <|twiser|> how can fix that
[23:53] <elhoir_> NigelS: here is the ns7 directory http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56153/
[23:53] <astro76> Merkidemis: I think you need to open the .bin with a text editor and see what's up
[23:54] <mar77i> hi there. do you want to see something funny? I don't really know what that should... This is no fake: http://pastebin.ca/905724
[23:54] <eekrano> MagoonD, .... hmmm... your hard drive light keep going or something?
[23:54] <johnny_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56154/
[23:54] <astro76> Merkidemis: pastebin it if you want
[23:54] <johnny_> can someone tell me what the problem is
[23:54] <vladanian> pocketdrummer: and you can play an ogg in rb, just not by clicking on it? I have no idea why it's not working.
[23:54] <MagoonD> eekrano, no i dont think its a hardware or performance issue
[23:54] <Merkidemis> astro: well, its on the other computer and cygwin isn't letting me cut and paste from it
[23:54] <johnny_> unknown user 'postfix' ?
[23:55] <MatBoy> how stable is gutsy ?
[23:55] <johnny_> how do i fix that
[23:55] <eekrano> MagoonD, is your cpu maxed out?
[23:55] <Pici> mar77i: apt is not the name of the program you want.
[23:55] <MagoonD> eekrano, there has to be a file that stores the speed somewhere for mouse acceleration
[23:55] <pocketdrummer> vladanian: Yeah, I'm stumped too.
[23:55] <MagoonD> eekrano, not at all
[23:55] <Slart> danh1: no.. I mean.. download the deb using packages.ubuntu.com.. then install it using "sudo dpkg -i yourdebfilehere.deb"
[23:55] <Pici> mar77i: apt != apt-get
[23:55] <astro76> Merkidemis: what's the first line?
[23:55] <mar77i> Pici: why is anyone thinking I need sun-java6 for that???
[23:55] <johnny_> i upgraded from dapper to edgy and now i cant install anything
[23:55] <Merkidemis> astro: lots of random ascii characters in the bin, though it starts with ^?ELF^A^A^A^@^@^@^@^@^@
[23:55] <johnny_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/56154/
[23:55] <johnny_> does anyone know how to fix this
[23:55] <MatBoy> is gutsy stable comparing to Feisty Fawn ?
[23:55] <NigelS> elhoir_: right, so let's try what we tried before - firstly delete firefox-javaplugin.so from /etc/alternatives
[23:55] <danh1> Slart: I gotcha.  I meant I didn't realiez you could downlaod from packages.ubuntu.com
[23:55] <eekrano> MagoonD, mouse acceleration? thats it? i thought you were referring to overall speed
[23:55] <sponger> gutsy is just fine
[23:55] <astro76> Merkidemis: oh okay it is actually a binary
[23:55] <MatBoy> I mean, not buggy the whole time :)
[23:56] <MatBoy> sponger, ok :) thanks
[23:56] <rufus_> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4338884
[23:56] <rufus_> maybe someone can help?
[23:56] <MagoonD> eekrano, no just mouse accelration sorry for the confusion
[23:56] <Merkidemis> astro: its the dedicated server stuff for Steam games, like TF2
[23:56] <eekrano> MagoonD, heheh, sorry for makin you go through all that! one sec..
[23:56] <elhoir_> NigelS: already deleted
[23:56] <mar77i> MatBoy: it works for me
[23:56] <_Oz_> slart: I have updated info for you.  Simply do an add/remove or run synaptic and search for "startup manager" and you can control all the usplash stuff from the GUI.
[23:56] <Merkidemis> astro: of course I can't get the UT3 bin to run either
[23:56] <MagoonD> eekrano, np I appreciate any help I can get
[23:56] <MatBoy> mar77i, in my Debian days, I was always running testing
[23:57] <pike_> Merkidemis: youre sshing to it? i think youd like putty better as a windows client
[23:57] <Slart> _Oz_: ah.. that sounds nice.. I'll put that on my "to do"-list.. but now I'm off to bed.. good night
[23:57]  * MatBoy is upgrading now to Gutsy :)
[23:57] <NigelS> elhoir_: then (making sure you're in /etc/alternatives) type ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so firefox-javaplugin.so
[23:57] <Pici> mar77i: Because thats where apt is.  Its a java tool, it just happens to share a very similar name to apt-get.
[23:57] <cappiz> would<PHONE_NUMBER>3 be a free number to call in the UK?
[23:57] <Merkidemis> pike: yes I am
[23:57] <eekrano> MagoonD, did you try System > Preferences > Mouse under the motion tab?
[23:57] <Pici> !offtopic | cappiz
[23:57] <ubotu> cappiz: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[23:57] <NigelS> cappiz: no, I don't believe so
[23:58] <elhoir_> NigelS: done
[23:58] <NigelS> cappiz: google the area code
[23:58] <Merkidemis> pike: cygwin was more useful in my various programming courses
[23:58] <Liono> here are groups by default that are sudoer groups. what are they
[23:58] <Liono>  how can i know e.g admin is. and if iaim not wrong. plugdev is ,but where can i know that? may be i installed mythtv. and thats an suder too the group mythtv. so where can i know
[23:58] <NigelS> elhoir_: and was there an error this time?
[23:58] <Slart> danh1: you might have to force the install... check the man page for switches.. you'll end up with something like "sudo dpkg -i --force-dependencies yourdebhere.deb"
[23:58] <MagoonD> eekrano, yeah i set acceleration and sensitivity in Motion tab to their highest
[23:58] <Slart> danh1: because the hardy deb will probably depend on something that's not available in gutsy
[23:58] <danh1> lovely
[23:58]  * Shadowfire is away: gnite..
[23:59] <Pici> !away > Shadowfire (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[23:59] <elhoir_> NigelS: no, it has never shown an error
[23:59] <ch08r> If anyone is available , I am frustrated as hell... I have spent the last 3 days searching and trying to get my cdrom drive to work and cant get it to work, looked everywhere on line... anyone able to help me?
[23:59] <pike_> Merkidemis: cygwin is great but the default shell kinda sucks for intance i normally install sshd on cygwin so i can use putty to ssh to my local machine i just like the shell better
[23:59] <NigelS> elhoir_: you said before that there was a no such file error
[23:59]  * pike_ shrugs
[23:59] <astro76> Liono: the only group that has to do with sudoers is admin, other groups typically use group permissions to control access
