[05:53] <essenceofchaos> Hey all. Can anyone help me out with a problem? When i play any kind of video i can only see playback on about 1/4 the size of the screen. if the window is bigger than that the rest gets cropped out
[05:53] <Flannel> blackhole: build-essential
[05:53] <BHSPitLappy> essenceofchaos, tried more than one media player?
[05:53] <Zac1> but what about this for example
[05:53] <ApocalypticOni> cool, thanks
[05:53] <cdubya> np
[05:53] <emi> ji
[05:53] <emi> hi
[05:53] <blackhole> Flannel, Is that a command i should execute?
[05:54] <essenceofchaos> Yea on xine it works fine but not all formats run there
[05:54] <Flannel> blackhole: no, that's a package you should install
[05:54] <cdubya> blackhole, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:54] <eternalswd> essenceofchaos, what are you using to play it?
[05:54] <Zac1> http://www.apple.com/macbook/frontrow.html
[05:54] <blackhole> okay.
[05:54] <essenceofchaos> vlc and totem have the problem
[05:54] <Zac1> eternalswd:
[05:55] <eternalswd> Zac1, looks like they require their proprietary software to access the videos
[05:55] <Zac1> eternalswd:... ok so what can i do about that?
[05:55] <essenceofchaos> Ah nevermind for some reason it's wrking now.  oops. ok thanks all
[05:55] <blackhole> cdubya, is there a package for QT 4.2.2
[05:55] <blackhole> ?
[05:56] <eternalswd> Zac1, complain to apple?  not much you can do
[05:56] <Zac1> :(
[05:56] <blackhole> and mysql?
[05:56] <Zac1> thanks
[05:56] <greyhat> hi
[05:57] <cdubya> blackhole, just a sec
[05:57] <eternalswd> PurpZeY, the problem wasn't playing quicktime files, the problem was that particular page required Quicktime 7 just to access the videos
[05:57] <blackhole> sure
[05:57] <BHSPitLappy> I have more success playing quicktime than most other online formats in linux
[05:57] <PurpZeY_> eternalswd: Got it.
[05:57] <wit_273> I have a Toshiba Tecra A8 that the sound will not work on the built in speakers when running Feisty, but will work with external speakers.  The speakers do work in Windows
[05:57] <wit_273> Has anyone else ran into that problem?
[05:57] <cdubya> blackhole, looks like lots of qt4 stuff when I searched
[05:57] <blackhole> okay
[05:58] <emi> when i try to boot i cant and after 3 minutes it says : can't access tty; job control turned off (initramfs)
[05:58] <cdubya> blackhole, you have multiverse and universe repos enabled?
[05:58] <eternalswd> wit_273, if you've got built-in and external, you probably need to change which device is controlling volume
[05:58] <blackhole> cbudya, nope how can i do so.
[05:58] <blackhole> cdubya,
[05:58] <milllmannn> where is the apache httpd.conf file located when installed from apt-get?
[05:59] <greyhat> hola tupa
[05:59] <cdubya> blackhole, System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager
[05:59] <wit_273> I have enabled both speakers and headphone jack (which is what you use for external speakers)
[05:59] <Death_Sargent> ok I can't connect to my primary wifi network
[05:59] <blackhole> Yes its there...
[05:59] <Death_Sargent> I can connect to anything but it
[05:59] <eternalswd> milllmannn, /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[05:59] <cdubya> blackhole, then go to Settings > Repositories
[05:59] <Death_Sargent> all my other stuff can connect but not me
[05:59] <blackhole> Done
[05:59] <eternalswd> Death_Sargent, is it encrypted?
[05:59] <Death_Sargent> this linux laptop cannot connect over wifi to my home network
[06:00] <Death_Sargent> other encrypted netoworks are detected
[06:00] <Death_Sargent> and I have been able to connect before
[06:00] <cdubya> blackhole, then on the first tab for Ubuntu software, make sure that universe and multiverse repos are ticked
[06:00] <blackhole> Okay.
[06:00] <cdubya> blackhole, close window, and reload
[06:00] <blackhole> okay.
[06:00] <cdubya> blackhole, then search for qt :)
[06:01] <Death_Sargent> eteralswd: did you catch that
[06:01] <Flannel> milllmannn: What are you trying to configure?  Ubuntu does it's apache the debian way.  So there is no monolithic config file anywhere (but they're all in /etc/apache2).  Ubuntu doesn't use httpd.conf, for instance.
[06:01] <milllmannn> im configuring it to use serve ruby content
[06:01] <eternalswd> wit_273, the volume for your headphone jack is probably PCM in alsamixer, open up alsamixer from the terminal and make sure other stuff isn't muted.  The bars would have and MM on them if muted
[06:01] <tupa> greyhat, hey, what up?
[06:01] <blackhole> cdubya, Is there some more tools i would need for development, i mean basic development tools which you suggest i should install with build-essentials
[06:01] <totto> any one got a clue how i can get my wire less netvork to work :S
[06:02] <Flannel> milllmannn: Did you install apache2-mod-ruby?  That should be it.
[06:02] <milllmannn> i set it up from the source last night instead of using apt-get install and i had some intermittent problems
[06:02] <eternalswd> Death_Sargent, so it used to work, but now it doesn't?  did this happen after a distro upgrade?  after a kernel upgrade?
[06:02] <cdubya> blackhole, what are you looking to develop in?
[06:02] <greyhat> tupa /join #unixmexico :)
[06:02] <blackhole> cdubya, QT and MySql
[06:02] <wit_273> eternalswd, I have checked that mulitple times nothing is muted and all volumes are maxed
[06:02] <milllmannn> well, does apache2-mod-ruby use mongrell cluster?
[06:02] <cdubya> blackhole, ok....
[06:02] <Flannel> milllmannn: I have no idea
[06:02] <Death_Sargent> enternalswd: just eye-candy and video driver upgrade nothing but kernel headers
[06:02] <Death_Sargent> eteralswd: no full kernel change
[06:03] <cdubya> blackhole, I've not used it, but I know there's a qt designer out there for that kind of stuff......
[06:03] <saxartist> mIRC sucks...
[06:03] <milllmannn> ok, then i guess i will try that if this doesnt work...
[06:03] <saxartist> anyway
[06:03] <saxartist> haha
[06:03] <eternalswd> wit_273, try asking in #alsa
[06:03] <cdubya> blackhole, are you wanting to design an interface to mysql or something?
[06:03] <saxartist> I'm trying to fix my install.... I just changed resolutions in KDE Settings and now my login screen won't appear and won't boot
[06:03] <saxartist> recovery mode didn't work
[06:03] <saxartist> any suggestions?
[06:03] <blackhole> yes similar kinda i knw what QT have i just was asking do i need any more tools like gcc and etc
[06:04] <eternalswd> Death_Sargent, don't know what to tell you, there shouldn't be any reason it would suddenly stop working :(
[06:04] <Flannel> saxartist: ctrl-alt-f1 doesn't get you to a TTY?
[06:04] <wit_273> eternalswd, thanks I will go there.  I have tried Googling it, and Ubuntu Forums with no luck.  Lot's of ideas but nothing worked.
[06:04] <saxartist> it does, but I don't know how to change the default Manager Flannel
[06:04] <cdubya> blackhole, don't think so other than what you've got in build-essential, but then, I'm not into qt......
[06:04] <totto> i hawe a dwl-ag550 wireless network kard that umbuntu cant find can sombody place helpe me ?
[06:04] <blackhole> Okay
[06:04] <saxartist> it said KDE wasn't starting because it wasn't default, but it is, and GDM didnt' start either Flannel
[06:04] <gerro> saxartist: yeah read what the error it says states, you probably edited it not using a plaintext editor, if your writing program takes more than instantly to load up it will not do
[06:05] <saxartist> gerro: I used the KDE settings menu
[06:06] <saxartist> I don't know how to change the default manager from command line
[06:06] <gerro> saxartist: ah well can't help you there because I don't use kde
[06:06] <pyrak> can i have some suggestions for linux advantages over windows to help convert a friend?
[06:06] <gerro> saxartist: I would just edit xorg.conf
[06:06] <saxartist> ah...
[06:06] <gerro> pyrak yeah
[06:06] <saxartist> that's an idea... I need to try thinking... ;)
[06:06] <Flannel> saxartist: dpkg-reconfigure --config kdm, I believe.
[06:06] <arooni> hey folks
[06:06] <eternalswd> blackhole, you may need some development packages specific to the project like libqt3-mt-dev, etc
[06:06] <Flannel> er, --configure
[06:06] <arooni> i have a bluetake usb device.... and i want to get it working with ubuntu 7.04.  any tips to how?
[06:07] <blackhole> eternalswd, What i need to download for that
[06:07] <saxartist> arooni:  bluetake?
[06:07] <saxartist> Flannel: thanks
[06:07] <totto> i hawe a dwl-ag550 wireless network kard that umbuntu cant find can sombody place helpe me ?
[06:07] <eternalswd> blackhole, what are you trying to compile?  or are you starting your own project?
[06:07] <arooni> saxartist: thats the name of the usb bluetooth adapater  (brandname)
[06:07] <blackhole> eternalswd, I am trying to compile a app which uses QT 4.2.2 and Mysql Dbase
[06:07] <eternalswd> !wifi | totto
[06:07] <ubotu> totto: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:08] <eternalswd> blackhole, do you have the name of the program so I can look it up?
[06:08] <blackhole> eternalswd, Its mine dude not open source
[06:09] <blackhole> eternalswd, I have developed it earlier using some other linux distor
[06:10] <eternalswd> blackhole, you probably need libqt4-dev and libmysqlclient15-dev at least, and maybe some more, but that's a starting point
[06:10] <blackhole> okay
[06:11] <blackhole> I also need mysql servere
[06:11] <blackhole> which package is it?
[06:11] <eternalswd> blackhole, mysql-server-5.0
[06:11] <Nutubuntu> blackhole,  I think it's mysql-server ... search for 'mysql' in aptitude or Synaptic and you should find it
[06:11] <blackhole> yup got it
[06:12] <pyrak> gerro, please enlighten me :)
[06:12] <krazye> is there a way I can give a program permissions to access a disk drive?
[06:13] <krazye> lol it sounds like a strange or stupid question
[06:14] <blackhole> which is package for ncurses
[06:14] <blackhole> ?
[06:15] <arooni> i have a bluetooth usb adapter i want to use in ubuntu 7.04.... any suggestions on how to hook it up?
[06:15] <pike__> !bluetooth | arooni
[06:15] <ubotu> arooni: For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[06:15] <arooni> great!
[06:16] <krazye> anyone good with vm?
[06:16] <Torahteen> I'm trying to run VirtualBox, but it says that the group vboxusers doesn't have write permissions for /dev/vboxdrv
[06:16] <Torahteen> How do I give it permissoin?
[06:16] <Torahteen> ion*
[06:17] <ant-> !chmod
[06:17] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[06:17] <wgre0111> I am having a hard time getting my web cam to work.
[06:17] <robby> Why?  Why does Linux have to be so awsome!?!?
[06:17] <robby> lol
[06:18] <MajorPayne> !test
[06:18] <ubotu> failed
[06:18] <arooni> is there a UI for any of these bluetooth management things?
[06:18] <wgre0111> any ideas on getting my web cam to work?
[06:18] <krazye> Torahteen: try sudo -s -H in your terminal then try adding it
[06:18] <robby> botsnack
[06:18] <InVerSioN|LP> hey
[06:19] <krazye> Torahteen: it's just a guess, I don't know if it will work
[06:19] <InVerSioN|LP> i know it's not exactly on topic here, but i was wondering if there were any tech-related professionals who would be willing to help me with my resume?
[06:19] <botsnack> arooni: there are gnome and kde front end tools
[06:19] <saxartist> yay! thanks Flannel, I fixed it
[06:19] <saxartist> it was xorg.conf
[06:19] <arooni> botsnack: got any suggestions for the gnome ones?
[06:20] <Torahteen> Thanks guys :)
[06:20] <pike_> arooni: sorry im not too familiar with bluetooth stuff
[06:20] <krazye> np
[06:21] <pike_> arooni: an apt-cache search bluetooth  should give you an idea
[06:21] <[SKiZ] > can anyone shed some light on why my D-Link DWL-G510 Wifi card does not get detected after installation despite being on the HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards list
[06:21] <krazye> only if I can get it to work in vmware
[06:21] <InVerSioN|LP> would anybody mind helping me with my resume?
[06:21] <ce_nie> jakarta
[06:21] <eck> InVerSioN|LP: do you have it posted somewhere?
[06:21] <wgre0111> how can i set a a virtual machine with my windows partition?? is it free?
[06:21] <ce_nie> tttt
[06:22] <wgre0111> i wouldnt mind helping
[06:23] <valehru> Hey guys
[06:23] <cdubya> there any way to setup vmplayer to work with an existing winders partition?
[06:23] <Samad> hello all, is there any easy way to give myself full read/write permission for everything in Feisty?
[06:23] <krazye> wgre0111: you need a conversion tool
[06:23] <valehru> My Graphics card is running at 97 degrees celcius.  Any way I can bring that down, its not doing anything intensive that I can tell, I just started up the machine.
[06:23] <pike_> Samad: sudo -i :)
[06:24] <Samad> pike: just run "sudo -i"?
[06:24] <krazye> cdubya: you need a virtual image to use vmplayer
[06:24] <pike_> valehru: id verify that in the bios. ive often gotten inaccurate numbers in linux
[06:24] <wgre0111> how do you make a virtual image?
[06:24] <MajorPayne> Samad: That will give you a root terminal.
[06:24] <Flannel> Samad: You don't want to give yourself full read/write permissions.  That's a bad thing.
[06:24] <valehru> pike_, well my computer regularly shuts down due to reaching 100 degrees....its nuts!
[06:24] <cdubya> krazye, yeah, I read a little about it, just didn't get to see if you could do it with an existing partition or not. Guess I'll nix that
[06:25] <Samad> Flannel: why is this?
[06:25] <pike_> Samad: what are you trying to do?  if you need to copy and move files in gui you can launch an app with sudo like ... gksu nautilus&
[06:25] <taxman> compiz works great on this Dell on Gutsy tribe 2 for what it's worth
[06:25] <krazye> cdubya; you can try to do what Im doing
[06:25] <Flannel> Samad: Because permissions are good.  Having a user that can't accidentally delete the entire system is a good thing.
[06:25] <pike_> valehru: well thats bad :) i have mine set to shutdown at 70 cel i think
[06:25] <segagman> hello my fello ubuntu people
[06:25] <valehru> pike_, tell me about it.
[06:25] <Samad> pike: yes I just want to avoid having to running commands in terminal to copy files
[06:25] <cdubya> krazye, which is?
[06:25] <bruenig> !find libpanelapplet
[06:25] <ubotu> Found: libpanelappletmm-2.6-1c2, libpanelappletmm-2.6-dev
[06:25] <krazye> cdubya: Im trying to make a virtual image of xp to be able to access my xp partition
[06:25] <Samad> Flannel: gotcha ;)
[06:26] <pike_> Samad: the gksu nautilus  is your best option it will launch your file manager
[06:26] <Flannel> Samad: you can use `gksu nautilus` like pike_ said.  But once you're done doing admin stuff, you should close that nautilus window.
[06:26] <krazye> cdubya: Im having difficulty though, it wont allow my permissions to add the partition to my virtual machine
[06:26] <taxman> wgre0111: I may have missed, what image are you trying to make?
[06:26] <darwin81> I'm thinking about compiling my kernel from scratch for better performance. So far the best guide seems to be: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=311158&highlight=Master+Kernel . Does anyone know of a better guide or can give me an tips?
[06:26] <Samad> Flannel; Pike: thank you both
[06:26] <cdubya> krazye, what are you trying to do?
[06:26] <Samad> great help
[06:27] <cdubya> ah, nm
[06:27] <krazye> cdubya: Im trying to make a virtual image of xp to be able to access my xp partition
[06:27] <Flannel> !kernel | darwin81
[06:27] <cdubya> krazye, how are you going about that?
[06:27] <ubotu> darwin81: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[06:27] <wgre0111> i am trying to do the same... how do you make a virtual image for xp?
[06:27] <eck> darwin81: fyi you aren't going to get significantly better performance (maybe in a server scenario...)
[06:27] <krazye> cdubya: vmware workstation has the option of adding a hard drive support to an existing image
[06:27] <taxman> darwin81: you do know to never submit bug reports based on your custom kernel right?
[06:27] <MajorPayne> darwin81: IMHO and my tip is it is not worth it.
[06:28] <MajorPayne> darwin81: Besides that you really need to know your hardware.
[06:28] <pike_> wgre0111: best to google for some website thatll build the vmx file for ya. i prefer vmware-server which is free at their website though. or qemu
[06:28] <zango> how do i install emacs 22?
[06:29] <firelord901> Can someone help me with a problem. Whenever I boot I always need to turn off my wifi or else it will take a long time.
[06:29] <krazye> wgre0111: install vmware-server and go through the defaults, with the exception to use NAT. Insert XP CD to you cd drive. Power the Virtual machine... follow the xp install instructions
[06:29] <Samad> how do I run this gksu nautilus?
[06:29] <eck> firelord901: try disabling it in /etc/network/interfaces
[06:29] <Flannel> Samad: in a terminal, or the run dialog (alt-f2)
[06:30] <eck> and just let NM take care of bringing it up once you log on
[06:30] <darwin81> I just want to do it to learn something new. I can always boot to the old kernel right?
[06:30] <krazye> wgre0111: vmware palyer doesnt allow you to create or manage virtual disks, you will need vmware-server to do this
[06:30] <wgre0111> I already have xp though...
[06:30] <Samad> Flannel: where's the file located?
[06:30] <Vlet> Does anything in particular need to be done in order to take full advantage of a dual core intel chip with a mysql server running on ubuntu, or will it just happen?
[06:30] <robby> is there a way to change the way the prompt look in terminal?
[06:30] <MajorPayne> darwin81: As long as you do not remove it.
[06:30] <zango> whats the best way to install emacs 22? I don't want to wait till it's in the repo
[06:31] <krazye> wgre0111: if you have windows already, then you can use a conversion tool to convert it to a virtual disk image
[06:31] <eck> zango: compile it. i'm sure there are instructions on the emacs web site
[06:31] <cdubya> krazye, how do you do that?
[06:31] <pike_> Vlet: just make sure the kernel you have supports smp
[06:31] <firelord901> eck: where would I find that?
[06:31] <wgre0111> would that affect my programs on there? i have alot of win development tools..
[06:31] <cdubya> because I've already got the xp partition intact
[06:31] <pike_> Vlet: the generic one does
[06:31] <eck> firelord901: the file is /etc/network/interfaces
[06:31] <Flannel> Samad: What file?  just alt-f2 then type 'gksu nautilus'
[06:31] <wgre0111> that dont want to lose atm...
[06:31] <krazye> wgre0111: http://www.vmware.com/products/converter/
[06:31] <The_Jesus> can someone help me with isntalling a 64 bit ubuntu?
[06:32] <Vlet> pike_: including mysql?
[06:32] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  why do you need the 64bit version?
[06:32] <segagman>  man i love this hole thing but im new and dont know how 2 "install" a program i have down loaded or conpile ect   is there a step by stem book any one can sujest? if i when i learn how to do it i might conpleatly cross over .. UBUNTU is catiching on but it need suport for linux n00bz  "intalling radom dl pro grams i think is a big factor in converting people to ubuntu linux... but any got a book i could get off amazone?
[06:32] <pike_> segagman: ubuntu as with other debian distros makes having to compile very rare
[06:32] <wgre0111> segagman are you using fiesty?
[06:32] <pike_> !synaptic | segagman
[06:32] <ubotu> segagman: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[06:32] <Samad> Flannel: Thanks a ton, I'm a total greeny if you couldn't tell
[06:32] <dr_willis> segagman,  i dissagree... iinstalling some  programs you ' download' is somthing ive RARELY needed to do under ubuntu.
[06:32] <The_Jesus> i need help witht he 64bit version because thats te computer i built
[06:32] <krazye> wgre0111: i dont suggest you use this though. I hear people have many problems with this. its best to create a virtual disk from scratch
[06:32] <The_Jesus>  a 64 bit computer with 4 gigs of ram
[06:32] <MajorPayne> robby: You can change the PS1 enviroment varable in .bashrc.
[06:33] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  with 4gb you MIGHT need 64bit.. but   you may have much better luck with the 32bit disrtos.
[06:33] <darwin81> MajorPayne, Also, do you know of a good guide or have any tips to improve performance?
[06:33] <taxman> robby: in general, google for bash shell prompt
[06:33] <firelord901> eck: what would I edit in there?
[06:33] <eck> firelord901: just disable everything other than lo
[06:33] <MajorPayne> darwin81: You will get hardly any performance increase.
[06:33] <taxman> you'll see all you ever wanted to know about how to change the prompt
[06:33] <eck> firelord901: i'll pastebin mine for reference
[06:34] <segagman> sauerbraten i grab it but i just dont understand how to get it to run
[06:34] <eck> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28924/
[06:34] <robby> K, is the bash shell and terminal the same thing?
[06:34] <eck> robby: no, the shell is the program that runs in the terminal
[06:34] <taxman> robby: it's the default shel the terminal uses
[06:34] <MajorPayne> robby: A bash shell runs in a terminal.
[06:34] <wgre0111> krazye hmmmm.... well can I have two different xp and this ubuntu on my machine?
[06:34] <taxman> so sort of is your answer
[06:34] <robby> oh i see
[06:34] <robby> cool
[06:34] <robby> thanks
[06:34] <segagman> stuff  thats not in the add remove or the symnapti thing
[06:35] <SeveredCross> Up to 4 GB of RAM is supported by 32-bit kernels, so you're fine.
[06:35] <SeveredCross> At least IIRC anyway.
[06:35] <krazye> wgre0111: you can have as many xps your computer can handle
[06:35] <eck> i think you need to enable highmem support in your kernel to get more than 3 GB visible ram
[06:35] <wgre0111> segagman most programs ive seen come with make files or autorun
[06:35] <SeveredCross> I think that it's enabled in the default kernel.
[06:35] <taxman> segagman: for apps that aren't alredy ported to Ubuntu (ie in synaptic) it's not always straightforward
[06:35] <wgre0111> and you run programs with ./####Name#### in terminal
[06:35] <SeveredCross> I think support for up to 4 GB of memory is the default kernel option.
[06:36] <astomper> How do I play an ISO image?
[06:36] <darwin81> MajorPayne, I know that compiling my own kernel is probably to risky just for a slight performance increase. I was just wondering if you had any other tips for performance.
[06:36] <The_Jesus> the 64 bit computer i built,needs the ubuntu 7.04 which i have however i get either a greys creen with a pointer, or a black screen with an ex. for the mouse
[06:36] <SeveredCross> Anything more than 4 and you're going to need a new kernel.
[06:36] <pike_> The_Jesus: typically the only reason you NEED 64 bit is for a single process to address more than 4 gigs ram. the 32 bit kernel can still use the ram just not one single process which if you think about it.. unless youre running gnome you should be fine ;p
[06:36] <MajorPayne> darwin81: I don't.  Sorry.
[06:36] <wgre0111> krazye would a new installation delete my current partitions though?
[06:36] <The_Jesus> but since i have the 64bit version to ubuntu
[06:36] <The_Jesus> what does that mean
[06:36] <taxman> astomper: mount it as an image and then run it with whatever app you want to use
[06:37] <The_Jesus> yay i killed it!
[06:37] <astomper> I remember a guide now that you say that, thx taxman
[06:37] <pike_> The_Jesus: it will work fine and maybe be a little faster but you might have some problems with flash plugin stuff like that
[06:37] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  sounds like X isent gettitng setup right. May want to try the alternative install cd's
[06:37] <segagman> i got a lot of thing i like to try but thenn its stops with the high learning curve that linux is i will get there but i want to move faster ...you know like tabed browing did for us all
[06:37] <The_Jesus> is anyone in ehre,
[06:37] <taxman> np
[06:37] <The_Jesus> can i  pm you guys?
[06:37] <The_Jesus> and talk to you in there?
[06:37] <The_Jesus> its ahrd to find the stuff in here properly
[06:38] <segagman> i want to understand how to get these programs to work were they are on my box ect
[06:38] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  thats why we say your NAME at the start of the lines.
[06:38] <taxman> The_Jesus: please see the topic and the FAQ on how to ask questions
[06:38] <The_Jesus> yeah, still..when ti get spushy there..it jsut ah...get shard to follow around
[06:38] <dr_willis> Gee - i must be leet.. i can follow it in here.. and on 4 other channels. :)
[06:38] <segagman> LINUX 4 n00bz is there a book called that i need it and want it
[06:38] <The_Jesus> alright, soy our saying,e vne thoguh i built a 64 bit computer- mothebroard, processor, ram, and video card
[06:39] <segagman> ] ha
[06:39] <The_Jesus> i should run the 32bit version?
[06:39] <Nutubuntu> The_Jesus, you're probably more likely to run into an issue addressing HD space with a 64 bit kernel, than you are addressing RAM with a 32 bit kernel. The 64 bit kernel has a 1TB limit on partition size; the 32 bit doesn't ... strange but true.
[06:39] <dr_willis> segagman,  problem is the noobs dont want to spend time reading. :)
[06:39] <The_Jesus> i have a 360gig hard drive im ntow orried
[06:39] <taxman> segagman: short version is you compile them or install them and figure out where they put the executable
[06:39] <person51090> I just installed linux as a dual boot. When I try to boot it, I get a black screen that says "GRUB _" and the cursor blinks. Any suggestions??
[06:39] <jplastin> What's the best way to automount an NFS share on startup?
[06:39] <krazye> wgre0111: A new installation will delete your current partition if you choose to reformat it
[06:39] <Flannel> segagman: help.ubuntu.com has a lot of good stuffs.
[06:39] <milllmannn> has anyone set up apache to serve rails content using mongrell cluster?
[06:39] <RoC_MasterMind> jplastin, Ubuntuguide.org
[06:39] <segagman> well im a linux n00b 2.0.4 betta that like to read
[06:40] <taxman> segagman: the README file that comes with the app is a good place to start
[06:40] <segagman> books
[06:40] <eck> jplastin: put it in your fstab
[06:40] <jplastin> eck: I did but it didn't work
[06:40] <krazye> wgre0111: A virtalization creates an image file on your hard drive. If you delete that, than your virtualization is gone
[06:40] <eck> jplastin: you must have put the entry in incorrectly or something
[06:40] <The_Jesus> so,
[06:40] <wgre0111> ohh sooo
[06:40] <eck> can you mount it by name after booting up?
[06:41] <segagman> ok ok ill try harder linuxman this is why i like it i just keep learning
[06:41] <wgre0111> krazye so its not even really changing or formating my partition at all...
[06:41] <taxman> milllmannn: no clue at all, but it's usually better to ask a specific question. For something that specific perhaps no one that's reading will know
[06:41] <The_Jesus> errrr.. i can run the 32bit version properly without any problems, butt he 64bit veriion is bigger than my hard drive? is that it?
[06:41] <jplastin> eck: yes
[06:41] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  NO.. there is a limit on the size of a single filesystem. that affetcts the 64bit disrtos.. Unless you know you NEED 64bit.. stick with 32bit
[06:41] <The_Jesus> i know some people that might have milllmannn but i cant get ahold of them
[06:41] <person51090> I just installed linux as a dual boot. When I try to boot it, I get a black screen that says "GRUB _" and the cursor blinks. Any suggestions??
[06:42] <milllmannn> I need help on a good resource for setting up apache to use mongrell on ubuntu 6
[06:42] <dr_willis> !fixgrub
[06:42] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[06:42] <eck> jplastin: there should be some sort of netmount service that starts up as a boot service, i guess it's not enabled by default?
[06:42] <milllmannn> ive been told to do things like backport and stuff, but it seems overly complicated
[06:42] <taxman> milllmannn: google apache, mongrell, ubuntu? :)
[06:42] <krazye> wgre0111: Correct; all vmware does is creates and uses virtual images, .vmx files on your existing hard drive.
[06:43] <Yorii> Is it possible to run Compiz or Beryl with fglrx drivers on an ATI card?
[06:43] <Yorii> since it doesn't support Composite Extension?
[06:43] <wgre0111> krazye so this conversion actually kinda makes a copy of existing xp?
[06:44] <milllmannn> taxman: I havent been able to find a good concise resource for ubuntu 6 that doesnt involve comiling from source
[06:44] <The_Jesus> so as for the TB thing, thats as big as ubuntu CAN get. not that it is that big right?
[06:44] <jorgerosa> hello all
[06:44] <milllmannn> how do i find out the version of the system i am running?
[06:44] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  just forget about the TB thing.. it dosent apply to you. :)
[06:44] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  its how big A filesystem Can get.
[06:44] <eck> milllmannn: lsb_release -a
[06:45] <taxman> Yorii: try it? :) the latest 7.10 alpha has compiz turned on by default. But reallize it's an Alpha and don't ask questions in here :)
[06:45] <krazye> wgre0111: Yes; it "copies" your existing hard drive partition into a virtual image: .vmx
[06:45] <The_Jesus> alright
[06:45] <jorgerosa> any C++ coders here that wanna help in a open-source game project?
[06:45] <milllmannn> cool thanks!
[06:45] <The_Jesus> well sicne the comptuer i want to run ubuntu on
[06:45] <The_Jesus> is not not connected to my network
[06:45] <The_Jesus> where can i redownload the file?
[06:45] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  what file?
[06:45] <The_Jesus> i ahd my instructor get it for me, and i dont want to ahve to go through some bs shit form where i have to give them my lifestory
[06:45] <The_Jesus> ubuntu
[06:45] <The_Jesus> the 64 bit version
[06:46] <Yorii> taxman: well I'm not running 7.10 :P and it doesn't even start
[06:46] <The_Jesus> i ahve a copy of the regular/32bit
[06:46] <wgre0111> krazye:  can you recommend a conversion utility?  id be willing to give it a shot even though people report troubles?
[06:46] <Yorii> Checking for XComposite extension               : failed
[06:46] <dr_willis> The_Jesus,  i think you have totally lost everyone now.
[06:46] <Yorii> turning it on makes it crash and I have to restart X
[06:46] <sirus> IPV6 ROCKS!
[06:46] <MajorPayne> !language | The_Jesus
[06:46] <ubotu> The_Jesus: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:46] <taxman> Yorii: then I think the answer is no for now :)
[06:47] <Yorii> I'll go find some other drivers :<
[06:47] <krazye> wgre0111: The only one I know and can recommend is http://www.vmware.com/products/converter/
[06:47] <jorgerosa> any C++ coders here that wanna help in a open-source game project? link: http://www.via2b.com/iteam/
[06:47] <krazye> wgre0111: it's free
[06:47] <wgre0111> krazye: hmmm sounds NOT free?
[06:47] <wgre0111> o :P
[06:47] <wgre0111> read my mind :)
[06:47] <The_Jesus>  sorry, forgto about langauge.  i want to download a file of the 64bit version of ubuntu, to install on ym 64 bit computer, which is not connected to anything. where can i go to download that file without filling out ten dozen forms?
[06:48] <wgre0111> would I have to be in xp for the converter?
[06:48] <krazye> wgre0111: says so on their website
[06:48] <eck> The_Jesus: ftp.ubuntu.com
[06:48] <The_Jesus> my computer which i wish to install ubuntu on, is on the other side of the room, with no wires connected to it.
[06:48] <The_Jesus> thankyou
[06:48] <krazye> wgre0111: not sure, I've never used the converter before.
[06:49] <wgre0111> krazye so how exactly does vmware work?
[06:50] <MajorPayne> !vmware | wgre0111
[06:50] <ubotu> wgre0111: VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[06:50] <krazye> wgre0111: I don't know the technicalities. Try searching wikipedia "vmware".
[06:51] <wgre0111> easyvmx is the vmserver?
[06:51] <sirus> is there a fakeident of ubuntu?
[06:52] <krazye> wgre0111: I don't know. The only two virtual machines I know of are virtualbox and vmware.
[06:52] <dr_willis> qemu is a distant third
[06:52] <dr_willis> vmware-server is what i use
[06:52] <ianmcorvidae> There are a few other obscure ones, but yeah.
[06:53] <krazye> I like vmware-server, however the lack of usb support ;\
[06:53] <dr_willis> dosbox :)
[06:53] <wgre0111> do you use it your self?
[06:53] <dr_willis> krazye,  lack? never noticed it lacking.
[06:53] <sirus> anyone
[06:53] <sirus> ?
[06:53] <Nutubuntu> dr_willis,  distant third in popularity? or functionality? I've been thinking of putting up a virtual winbox
[06:53] <dr_willis> Nutubuntu,  Ive had a lot ofissues with Virtualbox
[06:54] <krazye> My vmware-server says I cant add more usb devices because it cant handle more than 4
[06:54] <dr_willis> Nutubuntu,  Vmware-server works great for me.
[06:54] <segagman> PEACE OUT NELSON MANDELLA
[06:54] <Nutubuntu> t/y dr_willis
[06:54] <dr_willis> i tend to use them to test out livecd's Virtualbox seems to have issues in that area
[06:54] <wgre0111> where to get vmserver?
[06:55] <Nutubuntu> I was thinking of kvm/qemu or vmware, one or the other
[06:55] <ingo_> how can i get information about the gnome-themes ?
[06:55] <krazye> I basically use mine to get my itunes to work while im in ubuntu
[06:55] <krazye> stupid drm
[06:55] <dr_willis> qemu is not in the same league as vmware. :)
[06:55] <Nutubuntu> t/y - dr_willis - that's the decider for me then :)
[06:55] <dr_willis> it all depends on what you wan tto do. run XP? dont bet on qemu then
[06:56] <ingo_> hi all! how can i get information about the gnome-themes ?
[06:56] <krazye> qemu, whats that? Freeware?
[06:56] <ianmcorvidae> QEMU's good when you want it to be small; for example the DSL embedded version.
[06:56] <sirus> Or do i just use oidentd?
[06:56] <ianmcorvidae> But it's rather basic.
[06:56] <wgre0111> i need that....
[06:57] <wgre0111> krazye: I have a zune and this vmware would be great
[06:57] <krazye> zune not compatable with Rythmebox?
[06:58] <wgre0111> never tried... let you know now
[06:58] <krazye> dr willas maybe you can help me out
[06:58] <inayet> Can anyone help me with making my Creative SoundBlaster external sound card work? when I click on systems--> preferences--> sounds, and then click on TEST button I hear a BEEP noise. However when I attempt to listen to audio through for example youtube.com or internet radio station I cannot hear any sound. Please help thank you.
[06:58] <pike_> wgre0111: you need to register at vmware's website. (its free) and they email you a key to use with vmware-server which is vastly better than vmware-player
[06:58] <dr_willis> krazye,  huh? :)
[06:59] <dr_willis> inayet,  try playing a game? could  a flash sound issue.. not a sound card issue.
[06:59] <krazye> how do I grant vmware access to a hard disk I want it to use in the virtualization
[06:59] <ingo_> is there a possiblility to mix icon's from different gnome-themes?
[06:59] <dr_willis> pike_,  heck - they dont even email it to ya.. (well they do) they give it to right then.
[06:59] <wgre0111> thanks...
[06:59] <krazye> it gives me a permission denied when i try to access it
[06:59] <jplastin> Where can I add a command to run every time I boot up?
[06:59] <jplastin> as root
[06:59] <oksana> Is there a way to change default keybindings/accelerators in programs like gedit? (for instance Ctrl-f opens the search/find dialog; is there a way to remap the keybinding to another key instead of using Ctrl-f?)
[06:59] <dr_willis> jplastin,  depends on the command  /etc/rc.local is good for most
[07:00] <wgre0111> i have that permission denied all the time with alot of programs....
[07:00] <jplastin> dr_willis: the command is "mount -a"
[07:00] <Nutubuntu> oksana, in some programs yes (bluefish, for instance, or jEdit - I think) but IDK about gedit
[07:00] <ingo_> is there a possiblility to mix icon's between different gnome-themes?
[07:00] <oksana> ingo_: you can manually change the icons by right clicking the icon you want to change, choose properties, then click on the icon picture and find the folder with the icon you want to switch it with.
[07:00] <dr_willis> jplastin,  that should be getting done autopmaticially anyway.. You may be having some bigger issues.
[07:01] <hacosta> i have a strange problem, i have a usb keyboard connected to my laptop, and it doesn't work until i press a key on my laptop
[07:01] <krazye> willas, can I send you a pm?
[07:01] <dr_willis> jplastin,  mount -a , just has mount scan the fstab and automount the needed filesystems.
[07:01] <jon__> how can I change the resolution of gdm? when I boot, it too big and i can go to different parts by dragging the mouse around...
[07:01] <jplastin> dr_willis: I need it because my NFS entry isn't working.  If I run mount -a after boot the NFS partition is mounted, but otherwise it isn't... probably incorrect order of loading NFS thing at boot.
[07:01] <jplastin> All my other fstab entries work.
[07:02] <dr_willis> krazye,  letting vmware access a hard DISK requires manual tweaking/editiong of the vmware config files.. ive seen articals on it.. but   never done so. I share the drives with samba to let the vm machine get to them
[07:02] <ingo_> oksana: which icon-folder should i choose ?
[07:02] <inayet> dr_willis: I can play games that I downloaded from ubuntu without any sound.
[07:02] <dr_willis> jplastin,  now that makes sence.  netwroking is loading after..
[07:02] <dr_willis> jplastin,  toss that mount -a in the /etc/rc.local then :)
[07:02] <jplastin> dr_willis: Can I fix that so I don't have to put "mount -a" in rc.local?
[07:02] <mneptok> jon__: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:02] <jon__> it's really annoying, so I'd like suggestions
[07:02] <jplastin> haha ok
[07:03] <dr_willis> jplastin,  i dont use nfs much if at all.. so not sure what the deal is with it.
[07:03] <ctothej> how do I scroll through a long list in a terminal?
[07:03] <pike_> ctothej: you can pipe it to less or more like  ls | less
[07:03] <krazye> dr_willis, good Idea. maybe I will use samba to let my vm machine to get them as well. Can you recommend me a tutorial to do that?
[07:03] <RobFromMO> yeah, what pike said...
[07:03] <Nutubuntu> dr_willis, in vmware - do you need to give the virtual machine a partition of its own, or does it do its own fs inside itself (inside the file that contains the vm)?
[07:03] <SeveredCross> bojan
[07:03] <SeveredCross> Oops.
[07:03] <SeveredCross> Heh.
[07:03] <dr_willis> !samba | krazye

[07:05] <pike_> see the summery line of man less and man more.    i can never keep em straight one is a little more featurey i think
[07:05] <pike_> ctothej: ah less lets you scroll back up too not just down i guess
[07:05] <Nutubuntu> less is more : )

[07:06] <krazye> dr_willas, is an NTFS partition shareable with samba?
[07:06] <dragonx> hello
[07:06] <dr_willis> krazye,  never tried that. :)
[07:06] <inayet> I am new to linux and would love to get rid of windows, only if I can get my external sound card work with linux, it works with windows.
[07:06] <krazye> doh
[07:07] <wgre0111> I love ubuntu because there is so much help....
[07:07] <dr_willis> krazye,  i dont see why not..
[07:07] <The_Jesus> try WINE
[07:07] <krazye> thats what I need it to do. Im in a duel boot. i want it to share my NTFS partition :)
[07:07] <ctothej> from the man page for more: " Users should realize that less(1) provides more(1)"
[07:07] <wgre0111> this is a real beautiful thing to see....
[07:07] <milllmannn> anyone have a site that explains how to get apache to run at startup?
[07:07] <pike_> wgre0111: sometimes there is too much :)
[07:07] <inayet> whats WINE all about?
[07:08] <wgre0111> heh:)
[07:08] <The_Jesus> WINE si A windows emulator
[07:08] <krazye> !wine
[07:08] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.

[07:08] <krazye> Wine sucks
[07:08] <dragonx> any ideas on how to fix it?
[07:08] <dragonx> thanks
[07:08] <krazye> I cant get ventrilo to work in wine :(
[07:08] <sdouble> wine has many problems, but it's still beautiful

[07:08] <krazye> true dat
[07:09] <pike_> wine is handy. wine+utorrent for instance
[07:09] <sdouble> I can't get a lot of things to work properly in it, but it's almost the same
[07:09] <ctothej> inayet: i had the same problem, it is with the flash plugin settings.
[07:09] <ianmcorvidae> I prefer deluge-torrent :)
[07:09] <ianmcorvidae> But wine is good for that trick.
[07:09] <sdouble> I actually enjoy ktorrent though I've been a utorrent user for a long time
[07:09] <pike_> ianmcorvidae: c++ vs python. i win :)
[07:09] <Ziggy> Hey, I am having trouble setting my monitors resolution so I can install ubuntu, can anyone help or suggest?
[07:09] <wgre0111> fiesty is a powerful bugger

[07:09] <ianmcorvidae> Also, some of the portable programs are good with wine.
[07:09] <taylor> Why won't tar -zxvf ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz  work? says it doesnt exist....
[07:09] <wgre0111> It detected alot of stuff that previous versions didnt...
[07:09] <jeremysan> What is the exact command to gedit the blacklist file?
[07:09] <wgre0111> IE my wireless card
[07:09] <ianmcorvidae> pike, I know. I still prefer deluge, lol.
[07:10] <wgre0111> I have a latitude D620
[07:10] <inayet> ctothej--How can I fix this problem; can you please walk me through fixing this problem?
[07:10] <brujoh> taylor, maybe try the file command.. file ndiswrapper-1.47.tar.gz
[07:10] <inayet> ctothej: where do I find flash ?
[07:11] <wgre0111> other than figuring out this vmware stuff... only other thing that could make me happy is getting my damn web cam to work on here....
[07:11] <dragonx> www.adobe.com
[07:11] <wgre0111> amsn is cool cause I can see others web cam but I cant get mine to work.
[07:11] <jeremysan> how do i edit my blacklist file?
[07:11] <ctothej> inayet: the way i did it was to go to a page that had a flash movie, right click on the movie and go into its settings
[07:11] <Flannel> !flash | inayet
[07:11] <ubotu> inayet: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[07:11] <Zoiks> can someone help me set up shared folders in feisty?
[07:11] <pike_> jeremysan: open an editor using the sudo command.
[07:12] <jeremysan> pike_ how do I do that?
[07:12] <Ziggy> Hey guys I have a question about resolution, I am having a problem installing ubuntu, it will only load to a peach screen (in safe graphics mode). How Can I install when it wont have a right resolution, my monitor allways bugs out.
[07:12] <Shadow6363> Hey, I was just wondering what the recommended widget program is?  I've heard of screenlets and gdesklets, but have no idea which is better.
[07:13] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  i hate them all. :)
[07:13] <Shadow6363> Open to more than just those two also, just haven't heard of any others.
[07:13] <ianmcorvidae> adesklets is another, but it's pretty weak.
[07:13] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  opera has similer feature also.. Hate it also. :)
[07:13] <dr_willis> heh
[07:13] <dr_willis> I find them all weak.
[07:13] <pike_> jeremysan: in a terminal sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist or gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[07:13] <dr_willis> Id much perfer panel-applets
[07:13] <ianmcorvidae> I use gdesklets to a small extent, but yeah. There are better options :P
[07:13] <Shadow6363> dr_willis, any reason, find myself agreeing with you at times, but figured I'd give them another try
[07:13] <ianmcorvidae> I don't have a panel :P
[07:13] <jeremysan> thanks.
[07:14] <Ziggy> Does anyone know how to set monitors proper resolution so I can install ubuntu, it wont load properly without it?
[07:14] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  i keep my apps fullscreened.. dekstop widgets are not seeable.. if they were panel applets. i could see them. :)
[07:14] <wgre0111> (needs to stop preaching) I never thought id get a version of linux to work on my computer
[07:14] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  that simple.
[07:14] <wgre0111> not enough time to figure debian straight
[07:14] <Shadow6363> dr_willis, i too keep them fullscreen, but dont really like any of the default panel applets
[07:15] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  perhaps if i get my dual monitors set up again some day...
[07:15] <wgre0111> others(wont name) wouldnt install right or detect my wireless card and ndiswhatever wasnt working
[07:15] <pike_> !fixres | Ziggy
[07:15] <ubotu> Ziggy: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[07:15] <wgre0111> but along came Ubuntu fiesty......
[07:15] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  theres a lot in the repos not installed.. theres also the windowmaker warf/dock applets that are nice in some cases
[07:15] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  but really how many  gizmos do ya need. :)\
[07:15] <Shadow6363> know the package names for any of them?
[07:15] <Ziggy> ubotu, Thanks man I think I can get that to work (On windows xp right now)
[07:16] <goodtimes> how do I change my file associations? when I open torrent files ubuntu wants to open it with democracy player instead of azureus
[07:16] <Shadow6363> dr_willis, i don't know, im quite satisfied with how things are, juts figured id try playing around with some of them
[07:16] <pike_> goodtimes: i think in nautilus you right click and its almost like xp where you do the always open with
[07:16] <Shadow6363> running out of things to play around with on my system :(
[07:16] <Sonicadvance1> I never knew C++ programs have 3 arguments in main() =o
[07:17] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  other then a clock, battery gague, and perhaps wireless/networking monitor. :) i dont need many
[07:17] <dr_willis> Shadow6363,  time to play with the emulators!
[07:17] <krazye> dr_willas is there a way to network my NTFS partition in ubuntu and find it in my virtual machine
[07:17] <heatxsink> if I "apt-get install lirc-modules-source"
[07:17] <dr_willis> krazye,  try samba.. other then that.. no idea
[07:17] <heatxsink> how do I get to the source?
[07:18] <dr_willis> heatxsink,  ya could always install winscp on the virtualmachine and use ssh
[07:18] <krazye> I talked to the guys at samba
[07:18] <Shadow6363> dr_willis, yeah, thats about all i have minus battery plus volume
[07:18] <krazye> I dont know anything about samba, but they told me its a network file system
[07:18] <krazye> a completely different file system?
[07:18] <krazye> am I confused?
[07:18] <heatxsink> dr_willis: huh?
[07:18] <wgre0111> krazye: zune not working iwth rym program
[07:18] <Shadow6363> krayze, im pretty sure samba isnt an actual file system, not sure though
[07:18] <T-Connect> Is there a program that I can erase cd-rw?
[07:18] <dr_willis> oops wrong name. :) heh
[07:18] <heatxsink> no worries
[07:18] <dr_willis> tjat was for krazye  :)
[07:19] <kryten107> krayze, samba isn't a file system in that sense
[07:19] <sdouble> it's a system for files. poor wording.  =]
[07:19] <kryten107> it just allows for network resource sharing between Windows, Mac, and Linux
[07:19] <krazye> ok, so how does it work. is it like a p2p program ?
[07:19] <sdouble> it's just like sharing in windows
[07:19] <kryten107> no no, it's just a protocol
[07:20] <Yorii> beryl: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[07:20] <kryten107> but it's really easy to install in Gnome, just go to Shared Folders I believe
[07:20] <Yorii> what have I done? :(
[07:20] <T-Connect> How do you guys erase cd-rw on Ubuntu?
[07:20] <pike_> samba doest take any real config these days
[07:20] <sdouble> none at all
[07:20] <Shadow6363> Yorii, what were you doing before you got that, i've had that problem before and fixed it, might be able to help out
[07:20] <sdouble> it was working right after I installed ubuntu
[07:21] <Yorii> I deleted fglrx drivers
[07:21] <kryten107> but once you get your NTFS setup in Ubuntu, your virtual machine should pick up on the connection
[07:21] <kryten107> I'm fairly sure.
[07:21] <sdouble> I had windows shares on my network, just went to remote places and browsed my network to find them
[07:21] <logreeval> is firestarter truly needed on startup in the session manger thing?, or is it running in the background?
[07:21] <kryten107> so long as you have your network stuff fed through to the virtual machine
[07:21] <dr_willis> !info samba-doc
[07:21] <ubotu> samba-doc: Samba documentation. In component main, is optional. Version 3.0.24-2ubuntu1.2 (feisty), package size 6754 kB, installed size 14512 kB
[07:21] <inayet> ctothej: can you send me a link that has a flash movie? are youtube.com movies based on flash?
[07:22] <dr_willis> sdouble,  that proberly wont work for his vmware setup however
[07:22] <Yorii> any idea Shadow6363?
[07:22] <pike_> logreeval: it sets the iptables rules. after you run it type sudo iptables -L to see the settings
[07:22] <krazye> maybe its best I install it and figure it out hands-on
[07:22] <Shadow6363> Yorii, not really,sorry, why uninstalling the fglrx drivers
[07:22] <Nutubuntu> T-Connect,  'cdrecord blank=fast dev=/dev/cdrw' but for '/dev/cdrw' substitute the CD-RW device name.
[07:23] <dr_willis> krazye,  install that samba-doc package.. it included 2 well done books on samba, Samba is one of those topics thats well worth reading all about.
[07:23] <wgre0111> good night everyone.... thanks a million for all the help.
[07:23] <Nutubuntu> be well wgre0111
[07:23] <Yorii> Shadow6363: was gonna change to open radeon drivers
[07:23] <trelayne> hi all, I'm trying to watch live earth with mplayer plugin and it seems to hang on the plugin with the messge: Initiated "audio/MPEG4-GENERIC"   RTP subsession on port  xxxx Initiated "video/H264" RTP subsession on port yyyy
[07:23] <sdouble> ah, I thought it was someone else asking about the vmware stuff.
[07:23] <dr_willis> sdouble,  heck - it could be,. its late.. and im tired. :)
[07:23] <Yorii> Shadow6363: can't I apt-get that library? :(
[07:23] <trelayne> anyone else have this problem?
[07:23] <dr_willis> egads 1:30!
[07:23] <logreeval> thanks pike_ :)
[07:23] <dr_willis> night all.
[07:24] <Shadow6363> Yorii, Do you have the libgl1-mesa-glx package installed?
[07:24] <Yorii> yes
[07:24] <dfgas> how do i get pidgin or gaim to show song being played in xmms?
[07:24] <inayet> how do I know if I am using x86 or AMD64 or ppc ?
[07:24] <quentin> hello
[07:25] <Yorii> if you must ask you're probably using x86 inayet
[07:25] <vip3rousmango> anyone know if Kopete shows what song your playing in XMMS?
[07:25] <inayet> ctothej: can you please send me a site that is using flash ?
[07:25] <Nutubuntu> hm ... where do I get that egads-1.3.0 ? ;p
[07:25] <sdouble> hehe
[07:25] <UbuntuLover> I have ubuntu installed, but the restricted drivers say the driver might not be compatible, what should i do?
[07:25] <inayet> yorii: how can I be sure ?
[07:26] <Yorii> are you using a mac inayet?
[07:26] <drm> what kind driver??
[07:26] <sdouble> inayet: just try flash.com
[07:26] <drm> you need?
[07:26] <inayet> yorii: I am using a Gateway pentium 4
[07:27] <Shadow6363> Yorii, have you tried the restricted drivers if there were any?
[07:27] <Yorii> x86
[07:27] <Yorii> Shadow6363: it was those I removed
[07:27] <Shadow6363> Yorii, oh, have you installed the new open ones?
[07:27] <Shadow6363> well, i'm presuming you have and thats where the error is coming from?
[07:27] <taylor> Why can I not "Make" my ndiswrapper after installing?
[07:28] <Yorii> Shadow6363: I think I have :P
[07:28] <drm> ex
[07:28] <kryten107> taylor: did you ./configure it?
[07:28] <brujoh> taylor, are you using a capital M in make?
[07:28] <Yorii> Shadow6363: http://pastebin.ca/606892
[07:28] <Yorii> it's gone! :(
[07:29] <taylor> kryten107 no, it doesnt say anything about that on the ndiswrapper site
[07:29] <taylor> brujoh nope, lowercase
[07:29] <taylor> brujoh and im in the proper directory
[07:29] <kryten107> if you're using make, you'll have to ./configure it first I'm almost certain
[07:29] <kryten107> see if there's a configure script in the directory
[07:30] <brujoh> taylor, kryten107 has got you covered ;)
[07:30] <Shadow6363> Yorii, have libgl1-mesa-dri installed?
[07:30] <taylor> kryten107 nope, no config script
[07:30] <T-Connect> gnomebaker rocks!
[07:31] <kryten107> hm, can you point me in the direction of whatever instructions you're using?
[07:31] <Yorii> yes Shadow6363
[07:31] <taylor> kryten107 these ndiswrapper instructions kinda sorta suck
[07:31] <Shadow6363> Yorii, hrmm, I'm no expert at this stuff and you probably know more, but perhaps this has some good stuff: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_feisty_beryl_ati_radeon
[07:31] <Yorii> I doubt I know more! :D
[07:32] <kryten107> taylor, I'd say just ./configure for the hell of it and see if you get anything
[07:32] <Yorii> thanks for the link though..
[07:32] <inayet> ctothej: I clicked on a flash movie and then setting. next step?
[07:32] <Yorii> I think I'll just start everythin over
[07:32] <Yorii> :D
[07:32] <Toma-> Ive got a serious issue where the harddrive was HDA now its SDA...
[07:32] <UbuntuLover> Where can i get nvidia drivers for ubuntu 32-bit?
[07:33] <Toma-> dmesg wont display past scsi0: ata_
[07:33] <Shadow6363> Yorii, sorry, I'm nvidia so outside of that, im not very useful
[07:33] <Yorii> yeah, I'm never getting a laptop with ATI drivers :D
[07:33] <Yorii> luckily I got this one free..
[07:34] <Yorii> ATI-card*
[07:34] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, there is a tool called Envy in synaptic that will install the latest nvidia drivers for you, pretty schweet
[07:34] <Nutubuntu> !envy
[07:34] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[07:35] <UbuntuLover> I cant install ntfs-config, it says there's a conflict.
[07:35] <brujoh> doh... thanks for the heads up Nutubuntu
[07:35] <inayet> when I click on systems-->preferences-->sounds, and then click on TEST button I hear a BEEP noise, however when  I attempt to play videos I do not hear the sound.
[07:35] <Shadow6363> if you're starting all over, may I recommend http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=481314 the merge seems to be pretty nice so far
[07:35] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, then what do i do?
[07:36] <inayet> Please help with fixing my external Creative SoundBlaster card.
[07:36] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, well it looks like there are some problems with Envy and it isn't recommended by the channel. Might not be worth trying in your case :(
[07:37] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, how about my ntfs-3g? itdoesnt want to install
[07:37] <T-Connect> gnomebaker seem hang at 99%.
[07:37] <kryten107> taylor: any luck?
[07:38] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, hrm.. What error is it giving you?
[07:38] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, just a sec.
[07:38] <Yorii> Shadow6363: reinstalling fglrx fixed the problem...
[07:38] <Yorii> gotta find a better way to remove it :D
[07:39] <inayet> when I click on systems-->preferences-->sounds, and then click on TEST button I hear a BEEP noise, however when  I attempt to play videos I do not hear the sound.
[07:39] <Shadow6363> did you ever run the sudo modprobe -r fglrx or whatever the command was before uninstalling it from synaptic?
[07:39] <Nutubuntu> egads-10.4.0
[07:39] <UbuntuLover>  Depends: ntfs-3g but it is not going to be installed
[07:39] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, --^
[07:39] <Shadow6363> Yorii?
[07:39] <MajorPayne> What is "Launching HTTP Cache cleaner"?
[07:39] <Toma-> My computer is randomly switching between hda and sda... anyone experienced this before?
[07:39] <UbuntuLover> brujoh,  Depends: libfuse2 but it is not going to be installed
[07:41] <inayet> Please help----when I click on systems-->preferences-->sounds, and then click on TEST button I hear a BEEP noise, however when  I attempt to play videos I do not hear the sound.
[07:41] <taylor> kryten107 nope, installed package from synapteic, but its only version .6, ugh!
[07:41] <Shadow6363> inayet, if i had to guess, you dont have the proper codec, have you installed any besides the defaults?
[07:42] <Kryten107> taylor do you need an updated version for anything in particular?
[07:43] <taylor> kryten107 naw, but I just dont like having older verisons in linux, less reliable...
[07:43] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, You could try to install libfuse2. apt-get install libfuse2
[07:43] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, from the command line
[07:43] <john__> I have these files that are .rar files but in different parts, such as 1.r1, 2.r2 or whatever the file extension is. Will I be able to extract them easily like I do with Winrar on windows?
[07:43] <inayet> shadow6363: How do I know if I have installed any codecs?
[07:44] <inayet> I am new to linux
[07:44] <john__> test
[07:44] <john__> good
[07:44] <john__> I have these rar files that are split up into different parts
[07:44] <john__> will it be easily to extract them?
[07:44] <inayet> shadow6363: how can I install codecs?
[07:44] <Shadow6363> inayet, run sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras or install it from synaptic or the application > add/remove, search for restricted
[07:44] <john__> or will it be hard before this is a waste of time to download?
[07:45] <brujoh> !automatix
[07:45] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[07:45] <rheisya> lo
[07:45] <Shadow6363> inayet, any of those will install a bunch of goodies to get you going including flash and a few codecs
[07:45] <UbuntuLover> brujoh,  ntfs-3g: Depends: libfuse2 (>= 2.6) but 2.5.3-2.1ubuntu4 is to be installed
[07:45] <sanqiang> hello everyone. Does network-manager handle pppoe connections?
[07:45] <UbuntuLover> E: Broken packages
[07:45] <rheisya> semarang
[07:45] <Shadow6363> inayet, let me know how that goes
[07:46] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, Could you tell me the output of uname -r ?
[07:46] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, 2.6.20-15-generic
[07:47] <john__> Let me repeat my question incase nobody really heard me. Alright. There's this .rar file, but split up into parts. In Windows, I would highlight them all, right click and select extract here. Since i'm still learning more things about Linux since I Switched to it a few weeks ago, will it be easy to extract it the same way?
[07:47] <Shadow6363> and inayet, since i was a beginner not so long ago, ubuntuguide.org is a great place to get your system up and running, i find it rather useful in addition to irc of course
[07:47] <inayet> shadow6363: I typed "sudo apt-get"  what should I do now?
[07:47] <robby> !Programming Bash Variables
[07:47] <Shadow6363> john_ have you installed the rar package?
[07:47] <john__> no
[07:47] <srbaker> folks
[07:47] <srbaker> i'm having trouble with a netinstall
[07:47] <Kryten107> taylor, according to the INSTALL readme in the latest ndiswrapper tar, you should run 'make uninstall', then 'make', then 'make install' sounds odd, but you could try it
[07:48] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, i also seem to be unable to install the Nvidia driver, i did sudo sh NVIDIa* and it says i'm running X-server.
[07:48] <srbaker> i followed the dirctions at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/QuickNetboot
[07:48] <Shadow6363> john__  run a sudo apt-get install rar
[07:48] <srbaker> the logs say: "Serving pxelinux.0 to <ip>"
[07:48] <srbaker> but the client says "File not found"
[07:48] <srbaker> which doesn't make any sense
[07:48] <srbaker> thoughts?
[07:48] <robby> ok
[07:48] <srbaker> PXE-T01 File not found
[07:48] <john__> after i install it, will i be able to extract them?
[07:48] <buttercups> omg i love ubuntu
[07:49] <john__> i love ubuntu too.
[07:49] <srbaker> followed by PXE-E3B: TFTP Error - File Not Found
[07:49] <srbaker> anyone?
[07:49] <Shadow6363> john__ you should be able to, shouldnt even have to highlight them all, just open one and it should work, but i cant guarantee that
[07:49] <robby> everyone knows its butters
[07:49] <UbuntuLover> ubuntu hates me.
[07:49] <buttercups> hates me tooo!!
[07:49] <Enselic__> john__: sudo apt-get install unrar, yes you will be able to extract
[07:49] <robby> I love bash
[07:49] <john__> unrar?
[07:49] <Sonicadvance1> http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,2155245,00.asp
[07:49] <Enselic__> john__: unrar
[07:49] <john__> i'm doing sudo apt-get install rar.. are they both different?
[07:50] <Shadow6363> Enselic__ isnt rar the recommended package, simply enables the default archiver to handle them, unrar is the non-free isnt it?
[07:50] <cold> rg +7000
[07:50] <srbaker> anyone?
[07:50] <Enselic__> john__: if rar doesn't work, try unrar
[07:50] <gameprograma> Hello!
[07:50] <john__> ok
[07:50] <john__> got them both
[07:50] <john__> i'll come back when i need help.
[07:50] <Enselic__> Shadow6363: probably true, yes
[07:50] <inayet> shadow6363: What should I do now?
[07:50] <robby> im hungary
[07:51] <UbuntuLover> i cant install NTFS-3G!
[07:51] <Shadow6363> Enselic__ john__ i've only installed rar and it works, but like he said if rar doesnt working, install unrar, i believe unrar is the linux equivalent of winrar
[07:51] <Shadow6363> inayet, did you install that package?
[07:51] <oksana> Is there a way to change default keybindings in programs like gedit? (for instance Ctrl-f opens the search/find dialog; is there a way to remap the keybinding to another key instead of using Ctrl-f?)
[07:52] <level1> Hi, I'm playing a file that uses an ogm wrapper and is encoded in DviX... I have a very nice processor and I can run things like compiz no sweat, but the videos seem to lag a lot... should this be the case, and is there anything I can do?
[07:52] <inayet> shadow6363: once I typed in "sudo apt-get" I got a list of commands and options
[07:52] <Shadow6363> inayet, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[07:53] <UbuntuLover> brujoh,  you here?
[07:53] <Enselic__> level1: you could check if you have the latest codec
[07:53] <gameprograma> Is there a Windows Explorer-like tool for Gnome?
[07:53] <gameprograma> Nautilus isn't exactly cutting it.
[07:53] <buttercups> can someone nice answer a question for me pleeeease
[07:53] <level1> Enselic__: how?
[07:53] <encompass> gameprograma: what feature do you need?
[07:53] <Shadow6363> gameprograma, what extra features do you need?
[07:54] <encompass> hehe
[07:54] <Shadow6363> sort of jinx
[07:54] <Enselic__> level1: what program do you use?
[07:54] <level1> gameprograma: you can try konqueror, a lot of people (like me) really like it
[07:54] <gameprograma> encompass, Shadow6363: A tree view of the folders on the left hand side.
[07:54] <level1> Enselic__: kaffine, but its not the only player that has this problem
[07:54] <encompass> it has that
[07:54] <brujoh> UbuntuLover,  yeah I was looking around a bit. It looks like it is recommended to use the restricted devices manager to install your nvidia drivers
[07:54] <Enselic__> level1: mplayer has in my experience the best playback
[07:54] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, i meant the ntfs-3g
[07:55] <gameprograma> level1: Any other alternatives to Konqueror?
[07:55] <level1> Enselic__: is there a nice frontend to that, preferrably a kde frontend?
[07:55] <UbuntuLover> why is it everytime i use ubuntu i get major headaches.
[07:55] <inayet> shadows6363: it is updating some packages automatically.
[07:55] <encompass> gameprograma: view... sidepain
[07:55] <encompass> hehe sidepain
[07:55] <level1> gameprograma: well, theres nothing that windows explorer can do that konqueror can't, thats for sure
[07:55] <Shadow6363> inayet, that is ok, just wait for it to finish and then try to play the video
[07:55] <level1> gameprograma: so maybe your just not find the features you want
[07:55] <level1> but they're there
[07:56] <lastuser_> firefox jeje
[07:56] <encompass> gameprograma: I recommand sticking with gnome tools... it's "cleaner" that way
[07:56] <acu> can anyone tell me the easiest (preferably GUI with rightclick) way to mount automatically all hard disks in a computer? editing the fstab is still a black magic...
[07:56] <Kryten107> level1: the kde frontend to mplayer is kplayer ;)
[07:56] <encompass> acu: what version of ubuntu is it?
[07:56] <lastuser_> I prefer amarok :D
[07:56] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, not too sure on that one, What is ntfs-3g?
[07:56] <encompass> acu: fesity should do it for you
[07:57] <Enselic__> gameprograma: you can choose tree-view in Edit -> Settings
[07:57] <UbuntuLover> its to read/write ntfs drives
[07:57] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, its to read/write ntfs drives
[07:57] <buttercups> I'm trying to install ubuntu and like when I get to the partition options I dont get the resize option just the guided - use entire disk and the manual option
[07:57] <buttercups> someone tell me why!
[07:57] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, ahh I see...
[07:57] <encompass> buttercups: umm you can install ubuntu in many ways... including keeping your old Operating system on it
[07:57] <n2diy> buttercups: is anything else on the hard drive?
[07:58] <Enselic__> buttercups: the partitioner probably suspects it cannot do a resize safely
[07:58] <Enselic__> buttercups: or not at all
[07:58] <firelord901> Can someone figure out why I need to plugin my headphones and unplug them to get my speakers to work?
[07:58] <Shadow6363> gameprogramma, like someone else said, there is a treeview, but i cant find how to get it like the windows explorer, im fairly sure you can, but not sure
[07:58] <Enselic__> buttercups: in any case, you can try to do it manually
[07:58] <encompass> firelord901: what is your sound card?
[07:58] <firelord901> encompass: Intel HDA
[07:58] <khin> hi im trying to use the standard program w/ gui to get some bittorrents. i started downloading one and its going at like 18 KB/sec on a university network capable of several Mpbs. whats up?
[07:58] <level1> Kryten107: that's werid... theres no kplayer package on the ubuntu repos, even though I know I've installed it before
[07:58] <dpemmons> quick question.. I just installed mysql from source (I wanted 5.1beta) and added /usr/local/mysql/bin to PATH in /etc/environment     I still get "The program 'mysql' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:sudo apt-get install mysql-client-5.0" when I type mysql at the command line though..
[07:58] <encompass> firelord901: I have the same driver... I don't get that issue
[07:59] <firelord901> encompass: are you using alsa version 1.0.14?
[07:59] <Shadow6363> gameprogramma, try on the left sidebar where it says places normally, click on that and then switch to treeview
[07:59] <encompass> firelord901: I would talk to the alsa guys on that one
[07:59] <Kryten107> level1: yeah I had to add it from the debian-multimedia repos I think
[07:59] <Kryten107> don
[07:59] <encompass> firelord901: what ever came with feisty, I am to lazy to look
[07:59] <Shadow6363> gameprogramma, also make sure under the edit>preferences that show only folders isn't checked if you want files also
[07:59] <Kryten107> don't know why it's not in the (k)ubuntu repos
[07:59] <khin> anyone know why it would so slow
[07:59] <khin> er would be
[07:59] <Shadow6363> gameprogramma, let me know if that is what you want or if you need more
[07:59] <firelord901> encompass: do you think its a problem in alsamixer?
[07:59] <robby> i hate all the connection Linux has to my system
[08:00] <encompass> firelord901: no
[08:00] <Shadow6363> inayet, hows that going so far?
[08:00] <buttercups> ya i wanna like duel boot windows xp with ubuntu, im following this guide psyhcats.net, im not smart enough to do it manualy
[08:00] <encompass> firelord901: sounds very funky to me...
[08:00] <khin> "manually" ?
[08:00] <acu> encompass: I use Debian Etch - but majority of things working in Ubuntu should work in Debian - and I need a GUI - easy way to permanently mount Hard disk drive - and I thought that would be for sure used in Ubuntu routinely
[08:00] <robby> lol manually
[08:00] <n2diy> khin: bitorrent is a sharing protocol, if your upload/download ratio is high, you may be throttled back by the servers/
[08:00] <firelord901> encompass: Your sound worked out of the box?
[08:00] <level1> !kplayer
[08:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kplayer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:01] <robby> 'MAN'ually
[08:01] <buttercups> whats funny
[08:01] <buttercups> omg
[08:01] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, I did an apt-get install ntfs-3g and it installed with no trouble in ubuntu fiesty. You could have some funky dependency or broken package problem. Maybe someone here knows how to troubleshoot that.
[08:01] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, nobody answered me.
[08:01] <khin> n2diy, you mean if im downloading stuff but not uploading? this is my first download so i guess i dont have anything to upload
[08:01] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, weird though, it was a fresh install too.
[08:02] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, 7.04?
[08:02] <n2diy> khin: yes, exactly, and if you did have stuff to upload, that would slow your download too.
[08:02] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, yeah, fiesty.
[08:03] <trumpetmic> hi
[08:03] <brujoh> UbuntuLover, already got all the updates and stuff?
[08:03] <n2diy> khin: bitorrent is for bandwidth sharing, not high speed DLs.
[08:03] <UbuntuLover> brujoh, yeah
[08:04] <imut> #jakarta
[08:04] <khin> n2diy, wait what, so you mean i can never get fast downloads?
[08:05] <khin> 13 KB/sec is not cutting it
[08:05] <robby> emacs pretty archic
[08:05] <dpemmons> quick question.. I just installed mysql from source (I wanted 5.1beta) and added /usr/local/mysql/bin to PATH in /etc/environment     I still get "The program 'mysql' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:sudo apt-get install mysql-client-5.0" when I type mysql at the command line though..
[08:06] <n2diy> khin: no, but it takes time for your client to find servers, address them, etc... So your speed will ramp up slowly. I'm new to torrent too, in fact, I was just reading about on wikipedia.
[08:06] <dpemmons> how do I add it to the path so it actually works?
[08:06] <haberman> emacs rules...very powerfull if you know how to use it.
[08:06] <buttercups> are there any girls in here
[08:07] <n2diy> ! offtopic | buttercups
[08:07] <ubotu> buttercups: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:07] <Shadow6363> what kind of question is that in a help channel?
[08:07] <robby> haberman: thats what i was just thinking, i bet you can make some good stuff...;)
[08:07] <buttercups> no i want a girl to help me not a guy
[08:07] <Shadow6363> ok
[08:07] <oksana> khin: not everything on bittorrent is fast. it depends on how many people are sharing the file and the speed of their connections. (and how many others are downloading at the same time)
[08:07] <dpemmons> buttercups: you're looking for a girl on IRC? good luck :-p
[08:07] <Shadow6363> buttercups, odd, how will you know if theyre a girl or a guy?
[08:07] <robby> wow butters that is selfish
[08:07] <Irishscotch> are there mp3 downloaders for ubuntu?
[08:08] <mundungus> robby: copy that!
[08:08] <Irishscotch> somewhat like limewire
[08:08] <khin> hmmm now its at 25 KB/sec. a new record
[08:08] <Kryten107> irishscotch: it's called frostwire
[08:08] <Irishscotch> ty
[08:08] <Kryten107> np
[08:08] <robby> ouch 25kb
[08:09] <dpemmons> so.. can anyone tell me how to add a directory to PATH in ubuntu?
[08:09] <oksana> Irishscotch: or gtk-gnutella
[08:09] <UbuntuLover> Is there a website to show all the alternative software if someone like me just transfered from Windows?
[08:09] <brujoh> dpemmons, edit /etc/environment
[08:09] <level1> !alternatives
[08:09] <ubotu> To change the default applications system-wide, use 'sudo update-alternatives --all' in a terminal.
[08:09] <level1> !windows
[08:09] <ubotu> For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[08:09] <dpemmons> brujoh: I did that.. I'm still getting the "install this with apt-get" message
[08:09] <level1> !equivalents
[08:09] <n2diy> UbuntuLover: have you checked out Synaptic yet, in your menus?

[08:10] <level1> nj786: what the problem?
[08:10] <^Takut^> anyone can tell me how to print using custom page size in ubuntu dapper
[08:10] <n2diy> UbuntuLover: I thought you wanted to explore what software was available to to you?
[08:11] <brujoh> dpemmons, ahh I see.. try source /etc/environment and try again
[08:11] <UbuntuLover> n2diy, no,i wanted linux-alternatives since i moved from Windows. Like video players,and the likes.
[08:11] <n2diy> UbuntuLover: have you checked out Synaptic yet, in your menus?
[08:11] <dpemmons> brujoh: ah that works
[08:11] <UbuntuLover> n2diy, fine.
[08:11] <buttercups> omg the only  help i got was im offtopic, i dont like ubuntu anymore, thats like why i wanted a girl they are nicer
[08:11] <nj786> level1: like when i send them a pic they tell me it autmoatically cancells
[08:12] <dpemmons> brujoh: will it "stick" now?
[08:12] <n2diy> UbuntuLover: it's all there, you just have to look for it.
[08:12] <Kryten107> UbuntuLover, did you see those links the bot provided?
[08:12] <brujoh> dpemmons, it should work for any new shells you open from now on I believe
[08:12] <inayet> ctothej: The downloading has finished, but the sound still does not work from youtube.com
[08:12] <UbuntuLover> Kryten107, where?
[08:12] <Kryten107> !equivalents
[08:12] <ubotu> A comprehensive list of of Windows-equivalent applications in Linux can be found at http://www.linuxrsp.ru/win-lin-soft/table-eng.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WhatWindowsUsersWant
[08:13] <dpemmons> brujoh: nope it doesn't :-(
[08:13] <n2diy> buttercups: you just alienated half the people on the list, with your girl only help request.
[08:13] <inayet> Shadow6363: the downloading has finished but the sound from youtube.com still does not work
[08:13] <SuicideSamari> How do I change my proxy settings?  Every-time I try to connect to any net service from the shell, it connects through a proxy...need to go directly through. THanks!
[08:13] <robby> lol
[08:13] <dpemmons> I suppose I could add that to bash.bashrc but that seems like a hack..
[08:14] <MajorPayne> !hi
[08:14] <brujoh> dpemmons, yeah it does.. I hate to suggest this but I think I addressed a similar problem once with a reboot.. I had to hack my path as well.
[08:14] <SuicideSamari> Could someone help me change my proxy settings for the shell?
[08:14] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:14] <Flannel> dpemmons: That's the 'correct' method.  Add it to your bashrc
[08:14] <robby> 1 thing I like about Linux/Ubuntu etc.. Is you gota work for it.
[08:14] <UbuntuLover> I tried downloading Adobe Reader, but all i got was a Tar.Gz file, what do i do with it?
[08:14] <taylor> Why does iwconfig not print my wireless device(like wlan0), when I have properly installed the drivers in ndiswraper?
[08:15] <rohan> how can i change the command used to suspend/hibernate the computer ? i'd like to use s2ram and not the default suspend/hibernate that comes with ubuntu
[08:15] <kahdloc> huge /names list in here.
[08:15] <dpemmons> ok.. that's what I'll do then
[08:15] <inayet> shadow6363: where are you ? my external soundcard is still not working
[08:15] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: tar xvzf filename.tar.gz
[08:15] <dpemmons> brujoh, Flannel: thanks
[08:15] <Kryten107> taylor, is your wlan0 up?
[08:15] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: cd filename/
[08:15] <UbuntuLover> Megaqwerty, does that install the reader for me?
[08:16] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: not yet, that just extracts it.
[08:16] <taylor> kryten107 i suppose not, if iwconfig wont list it
[08:16] <Shadow6363> inayet, do movies in like the movie player work or is it just youtube?
[08:16] <taylor> kryten107 it works fine in windows amt
[08:16] <Kryten107> taylor: does it show up in ifconfig?
[08:16] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: the next command changes into the extracted directory
[08:16] <Kryten107> taylor: it depends if it's a matter of it being recognized and installed or just being activated
[08:17] <taylor> kryten107 ifconfig lists eth0(ethernet) and lo(i dunno what this is...)
[08:17] <robby> Imagine if everyone was forced to use Linux all the sudden. LOL call centers would flood
[08:17] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: then once in the directory, do: ./configure
[08:17] <Megaqwerty> make
[08:17] <Megaqwerty> sudo make install
[08:17] <inayet> Shadow636:I will go to videos.google.com and see if it works there. Can you recommend any other sites that I can visit to see if I can hear the sound?
[08:17] <UbuntuLover> uh-huh
[08:17] <taylor> kryten107 hmm how do i activate it? (just in case its not)
[08:17] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: did you not understand all of that?
[08:17] <tucci> am having amarok trouble: burning a playlist no longer opens k3b, but k3b opens fine when I do it. Can anyone help?
[08:18] <Kryten107> taylor: lo is local loopback, no need to worry about it. if your wlan0 is actually installed and such, then you should be able to bring it up with 'sudo ifconfig wlan0 up'
[08:18] <n2diy> taylor: lo is your loop back connector, every box has it and needs it, don't mess with it.
[08:18] <DigitalNinja> Can someone help me with atptitude? I downloaded a package and I would like to install it using aptitude but I don't know how to do that
[08:18] <Zoiks> can someone help me with shared folders?
[08:18] <SuicideSamari> How do I change my proxy settings?  Every-time I try to connect to any net service from the shell, it connects through a proxy...need to go directly through. THanks!
[08:18] <taylor> n2diy lol :) ty
[08:18] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: if you tell me where you got lost, I can explain it to you.
[08:18] <Zoiks> DigitalNinja: how did you download it
[08:18] <Kryten107> DigitalNinja: no need to install it with aptitude, aptitude will automatically see it once it's installed with dpkg
[08:19] <sirus> can a eggdrop be installed on Ubuntu?
[08:19] <n2diy> taylor: :), but I'm serious, you need it.
[08:19] <taylor> kryten107 wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[08:19] <taylor>     wah wah wah
[08:19] <UbuntuLover> Megaqwerty, thanks, i'll try it once adobe finishes downloading
[08:19] <buttercups> like omg i should have known better to ask for help from a guy
[08:19] <DigitalNinja> Zoiks: It's webmin. I downloaded the .deb
[08:19] <Megaqwerty> UbuntuLover: okay, good luck. (not that you'll need it)
[08:19] <DigitalNinja> Kryten107: I think there is a way to tel aptitude to install a .deb package
[08:19] <Kryten107> taylor: then it's not actually installed / recognized
[08:19] <Zoiks> just install it DigitalNinja it will automaticly show up on the package list
[08:19] <Kryten107> DigitalNinja: I'll check the man, one sec
[08:20] <DigitalNinja> Zoiks: There are dependencies that don't get install if I use dpkg
[08:20] <Megaqwerty> DigitalNinja: to install a .deb package do sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
[08:20] <Zoiks> or you can just double click on it and click install
[08:20] <Zoiks> :)
[08:20] <DigitalNinja> Megaqwerty: That works but it doesn't install the dependencies
[08:20] <taylor> kryten107 ndiswrapper -l says...     wmp54gs : driver installed
[08:20] <taylor>         device (14E4:4320) present (alternate driver: bcm43xx)
[08:20] <pike_> DigitalNinja: what package are you installing?
[08:20] <Megaqwerty> DigitalNinja: or, if you want a GUI, you can do gdebi-gtk filename.deb
[08:21] <Kryten107> DigitalNinja: yeah I think aptitude is like apt-get, which won't install from a .deb, just fetchs and installs, so you'd use dpkg itself to install it
[08:21] <robby> You have to work for.
[08:21] <Yorii> I just wanted to say that after 3 hours of work and at least 20 reboots I finally got beryl to work with my ATI card \o/
[08:21] <Megaqwerty> DigitalNinja: my command will look for dependencies as well as install it
[08:21] <DigitalNinja> Kryten107: What about all the dependencies
[08:21] <inayet> shadow6363: I cannot hear any sound from videos.google.com site either
[08:21] <Kryten107> taylor: just because the driver module is installed though doesn't mean your setup is recognizing the physical device
[08:21] <DigitalNinja> This is on a server
[08:21] <svrfrmfaith> can someone help me out with some wireless stuff?
[08:21] <DigitalNinja> no X
[08:21] <taylor> kryten107 how do i make it recognize it lol
[08:22] <Kryten107> DigitalNinja: dpkg should take care of it. you don't have to use the CLI to do it, if you just install it from the right click context menu it'll fetch dependencies
[08:22] <Megaqwerty> DigitalNinja: well, you can install it with dpkg, it will give you an error, you can then get the other dependency, etc.
[08:22] <taylor> kryten107 im stubborn, i only have an ethernet connection through tonight, and i got to get wirless to work hehe
[08:22] <DigitalNinja> Kryten107: This is a server. No X
[08:22] <svrfrmfaith> I have instructions I just need someone to walk through them with me
[08:22] <svrfrmfaith> I'm a noob
[08:23] <Megaqwerty> DigitalNinja: unless you have all the dependencies dl'ed then you can just do sudo dpkg -i *.deb, and dpkg will figure it out for you.
[08:23] <Kryten107> DigitalNinja: hm. I'll check on it and get back to you
[08:23] <Kryten107> taylor: unfortunately figuring out your wireless from the start isn't something I can do from IRC at the moment, I'd check with some guide or UbuntuForums.org for some howtos
[08:23] <robby> I had to edot driver files and system files to get my ethernet to work.
[08:23] <Kryten107> man multitasking is a rush >.>
[08:23] <taylor> kryten107 kk, im off to google then hehe ty
[08:24] <Kryten107> taylor: np, you're welcome
[08:24] <DigitalNinja> Megaqwerty: I don't have all the dependencies downloaded.
[08:24] <DigitalNinja> I don't know what they are
[08:24] <DigitalNinja> I just know there are a lot of them
[08:24] <poningru> DigitalNinja: what are you trying to do?
[08:24] <svrfrmfaith> anyone...wireless help?
[08:24] <Shadow6363> quick question, what is the command to lock your screen, just xscreensaver or what?
[08:24] <poningru> !wifi | svrfrmfaith
[08:24] <ubotu> svrfrmfaith: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:25] <DigitalNinja> poningru: Install a .deb package and have all the dependencies installed
[08:25] <Yorii> how do I fold the corners of windows with beryl? :)
[08:25] <svrfrmfaith> yeah I have found instructions
[08:25] <Megaqwerty> DigitalNinja: you can find the dependencies on packages.ubuntu.com
[08:25] <svrfrmfaith> but I've hit snags
[08:25] <svrfrmfaith> so I'm hoping someone can walk me through it
[08:25] <Shadow6363> inayet, im working on it, but you might want to mention to the channel youre having trouble getting your external sound card to work
[08:25] <MajorPayne> !hi | MajorPayne
[08:25] <DigitalNinja> Megaqwerty: No. This is not a package from Ubuntu
[08:25] <sirus> What do I ned to install an eggdrop?
[08:25] <bruenig> sirus, sudo apt-get isntall eggdrop
[08:25] <poningru> DigitalNinja: if it has any dependencies that it needs installing from the repos then it will download and install them
[08:26] <Shadow6363> inayet, before you do, does sound work in videos not online, like local videos lke one of the example videos installed with the system
[08:26] <svrfrmfaith> wireless.....come on someone who is bored and has a few minutes to help me out! :)
[08:26] <Megaqwerty> DigitalNinja: well, it's actually time for me to be off to bed, so I'm sorry I can't be of more help. 'night.
[08:26] <DigitalNinja> poningru: This is not from any repos. I downloaded this from a website
[08:26] <poningru> DigitalNinja: what is it?
[08:26] <DigitalNinja> webmin
[08:26] <robby> Im bet you can make some keygens and pssword crakz with emacs and terminal
[08:26] <poningru> DigitalNinja: there is a reason why its not in the repos
[08:26] <DigitalNinja> I want it
[08:26] <poningru> ...
[08:26] <elpargo> anyone knows why flash + videos eats up CPU?
[08:27] <bruenig> elpargo, flash video or flash + video?
[08:27] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: whats the trouble?
[08:27] <elpargo> bruenig, flash video :) flv
[08:27] <bruenig> elpargo, mainly because adobe is incompetent
[08:28] <Kryten107> DigitalNinja: I'm sure there's a way, I'm still poking around the mans and googling
[08:28] <inayet> Shadow6363: Are there any videos on my ubuntu systems that came with it?
[08:28] <bruenig> DigitalNinja, sudo dpkg -i foo.deb ; sudo apt-get install -f (yet another flaw in debian package management)
[08:28] <heatxsink> has anyone compiled lirc-0.8.2 by hand?
[08:28] <elpargo> DigitalNinja, it's call gdebi
[08:28] <heatxsink> ls
[08:28] <Kryten107> DigitalNinja has no X
[08:28] <DigitalNinja> elpargo: That only works if you have X
[08:28] <bruenig> that is a dirty way around it
[08:28] <DigitalNinja> bruenig: Thansk
[08:29] <Shadow6363> inayet, there should be an Examples folder on your desktop or in your home folder, if not you should be able to create a new user and that user will have them
[08:29] <DigitalNinja> bruenig: Thanks
[08:29] <elpargo> DigitalNinja, then use bruenig's cli
[08:29] <Shadow6363> inayet, or just google for a .avi and download it
[08:29] <Kryten107> Glad we got that one out lol
[08:29] <Shadow6363> anyone know the command to lock the screen?
[08:29] <zenfool> hey all :)
[08:29] <bruenig> when you dpkg it, it creates an error about missing stuff and logs the package as broken and then you have to use the apt-get option to try to fix broken packages
[08:29] <bruenig> ridiculous
[08:29] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: keep it in the channel
[08:29] <poningru> whatsup?
[08:29] <Kryten107> seriously.
[08:29] <svrfrmfaith> oh sorry about that
[08:29] <DigitalNinja> bruenig: That should work. I thought there was a way to do it using aptitude though
[08:29] <DigitalNinja> maybe not
[08:29] <bruenig> no
[08:29] <elpargo> Shadow6363, ctrl_alt_l
[08:29] <Kryten107> Aptitude doesn't handle local packages
[08:29] <elpargo> Shadow6363, make those +
[08:29] <Kryten107> installing them anyway..
[08:29] <khin> should one of my bit torrent downloads really be going at 3 KB/sec or is something just wrong
[08:29] <svrfrmfaith> the forum I'm getting install instructions for my wireless isn't noob friendly and it's confusing me
[08:29] <pike_> bruenig: its not so bad.
[08:30] <Shadow6363> i need the actual command, trying to make a script with it
[08:30] <Shadow6363> ^@elpargo
[08:30] <John`> is there a way to make ubuntu ignore caps and uncaps files and treat it as the same thing?
[08:30] <brujoh> Shadow6363, I believe the command to lock your desktop is xscreensaver-command -lock (xscreensaver has to be running of course)
[08:30] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: whats the trouble?
[08:30] <bruenig> pike_, why would you have dpkg and apt-get, there needn't be two package management things like that, it creates problems like that
[08:30] <ColdNunya> svrfrmfaith, what kind of wireless card do u have
[08:30] <poningru> John`: no
[08:30] <Kryten107> John`: nope that's how Linux rolls.
[08:30] <UbuntuLover> Which is better? Compiz or Beryl?
[08:30] <svrfrmfaith> Dell 1390
[08:30] <elpargo> bruenig, but wasn't flash9 supposed to fix all that?
[08:30] <ColdNunya> me 2!
[08:30] <svrfrmfaith> and I found instructions
[08:30] <John`> ok
[08:30] <poningru> UbuntuLover: both are same now
[08:30] <svrfrmfaith> that everyone say work
[08:30] <svrfrmfaith> on the forum
[08:30] <ColdNunya> man isnt that card a bitch
[08:30] <John`> how do you look at hardrive info
[08:30] <John`> ?
[08:30] <bruenig> elpargo, flash 9 fixed sound not much else
[08:30] <svrfrmfaith> but there are things that I simply don't understand
[08:30] <elpargo> Shadow6363, ahh hold on I don't remember its full name
[08:31] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: go to synaptic search for bcm-43xx and install it
[08:31] <Kryten107> John`: what kind of info?
[08:31] <Shadow6363> elpargo, i think i found it, gnome-screensaver-command -l ?
[08:31] <John`> space
[08:31] <John`> how much space left
[08:31] <ColdNunya> i did the script from the site, but it ends up dissabling my wireless all together
[08:31] <John`> etc..
[08:31] <UbuntuLover> poningru, i saw this really cool comparison on youtube between Windows Aero and Beryl on Ubuntu and it was awesome, where could i find that set of theme/config?
[08:31] <n2diy> John, what kind of HD info?
[08:31] <John`> in terminal
[08:31] <John`> how much space left, how many partitions
[08:31] <John`> etc..

[08:31] <zenfool> how's everyone today?
[08:31] <xoRock> !ask have anyone try ubuntu desktop?
[08:31] <svrfrmfaith> all the instructions say I have to use that program that forces windows drivers
[08:31] <n2diy> John, df
[08:32] <elpargo> Shadow6363, yup that works here too.
[08:32] <Kryten107> John`: gah, trying to remember Gnome stuff...I think there should be a Disks option in Administration?
[08:32] <elpargo> bruenig, so we are basically stuck with crappy videos?
[08:32] <Shadow6363> yay :)
[08:32] <Nutubuntu> How do I work backwards from where gconfd crashes with sig 15, to figure out what's going on?
[08:32] <xoRock> !ask have anyone try ubuntu studio? (not desktop ^^)
[08:32] <bruenig> elpargo, the videos aren't crappy, your cpu might race a bit and the browser will crash on you every once in a while
[08:32] <svrfrmfaith> here are the instructions provided to install my card
[08:32] <svrfrmfaith> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=140214&page=2
[08:32] <ColdNunya> is there a way to go back to the default drivers with that 1930 card? after i ran that .sh from a forum it lost all knowlege of my card..
[08:32] <svrfrmfaith> on the bottom
[08:32] <John`> thanks
[08:32] <elpargo> make that crappy videos on crappy software.
[08:33] <UbuntuRocks> hey all - may i ask a question about automounting a usb drive from a terminal (not gnome or kde)
[08:33] <n2diy> Nutubuntu: your log files?
[08:33] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: oh hmm hold on
[08:33] <UbuntuLover> be right back
[08:33] <svrfrmfaith> thanks poningru
[08:33] <elpargo> bruenig, in here it goes to 100% although I open several at ones so they load in the back.
[08:33] <bruenig> UbuntuRocks, automount from terminal, oxymoron?
[08:33] <Nutubuntu> n2diy, yes - looked at them, grep for the crash time, but I don't understand much of what I saw
[08:33] <svrfrmfaith> there's only like 10 steps, but half of them confuse the hell out of me
[08:33] <ColdNunya> ponigru, i have the same problem.
[08:33] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: use gtkndis
[08:33] <poningru> install that
[08:34] <svrfrmfaith> how do I get it/install it?
[08:34] <UbuntuRocks> I have a USB drive showing up fine as sda, vfat system on it, entry in fstab that works fine with "mount -a" - but it doesn't mount at boot time! and ideas?
[08:34] <n2diy> Nutubuntu: roger that! I probabaly wouldn't either!? You might pastebin the relevant sections?

[08:34] <nixlover> hey, what can i use for rar files
[08:34] <nixlover> i need to open a rar file
[08:34] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: go to system->admin->synaptic
[08:34] <sniDe> Hey guys, how do I change the default use of application for a certain file type? For example I have some .cbr / .cbz comic book files but when I double click on one of them.. it automatically opens a program named Evince Document Viewer, I don't want that.. I prefer Comix
[08:34] <bruenig> svrfrmfaith, which ones confuse you
[08:34] <poningru> and search for that
[08:34] <pike_> nixlover: unrar
[08:34] <John`> type rar in sypmatic nixlover
[08:34] <John`> find it in there
[08:34] <pike_> nixlover: syntax is like unrar e filename.rar
[08:34] <nixlover> is that the only thing.. cause thats in beta
[08:35] <ColdNunya> pningru, the touch pad software?
[08:35] <pike_> nixlover: unrar-nonfree
[08:35] <Kryten107> sniDe: Preferred Applications I believe
[08:35] <svrfrmfaith> well step 2 confuses me, I don't now how to get my kernel header files
[08:35] <brujoh> UbuntuRocks, to automount it at bootup you would need to make an entry for it in /etc/fstab
[08:35] <svrfrmfaith> step 1 was easy enough
[08:35] <bruenig> oh wow that guy is stupid
[08:35] <bruenig> he says to do sudo make uninstall before sudo make?
[08:35] <nixlover> pike_: so thats my only chose
[08:35] <nixlover> choice
[08:35] <elpargo> bruenig, how about flv playback in the desktop? i remember vlc had something going.
[08:35] <baconbacon> I did a shred on my swap (/dev/sda2) to be sure to get rid of sensitive data. after that I mkswap /dev/sda2 and changed the uuid in /etc/fstab. Now hibernate doesn't work When I reboot it doesn't resume but reboot normally. What did I forget?
[08:35] <sniDe> Where is that?
[08:35] <svrfrmfaith> I just want to run through it because everyone after said it helped
[08:35] <svrfrmfaith> or it worked
[08:35] <svrfrmfaith> I really need my wireless up, otherwise back to XP :(!
[08:35] <n2diy> sniDe: menu > system >prefs > preferred apps?
[08:35] <Kryten107> bruenig: I just read that in the official INSTALL readme for ndiswrapper too, I don't get it
[08:35] <bruenig> elpargo, vlc mplayer I know can do it, anything which uses ffmpeg as a backend should be good to go
[08:36] <Kryten107> bruenig: just removing old junk I guess
[08:36] <svrfrmfaith> bruenig can I direct message you?
[08:36] <OmegaCenti> sniDe: that way may not work. Are you in gnome?
[08:36] <bruenig> no
[08:36] <pike_> nixlover: only good one so far as i know. ive only ever used unrar with rar files. back in the day i used wine i think with winrar
[08:36] <ColdNunya> svrfrmfaith this card is killin me
[08:36] <svrfrmfaith> I'm working on it ColdNunya :)
[08:36] <sniDe> Yeah, I'm using the Gnome desktop environment.
[08:36] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: instead of following that instruction just use gtkndis
[08:36] <nixlover> ark doesnt work with rar file?
[08:36] <Kryten107> I need to brush up on Gnomenclature...
[08:36] <svrfrmfaith> k can someone run me through how to use/install gtkndis?
[08:36] <Kryten107> nixlover: not without unrar installed
[08:36] <sniDe> I have found it.. thanks.
[08:36] <sniDe> Gonna configure it now.
[08:36] <OmegaCenti> sniDe: right click the type of file you want to start opening default in another application
[08:36] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: I just told you
[08:36] <OmegaCenti> sniDe: go to open with
[08:37] <nixlover> ooo ok so i guess ill install it
[08:37] <svrfrmfaith> ohh hold on
[08:37] <svrfrmfaith> thanks
[08:37] <ColdNunya> svrfrmfaith did it dissable your ethernet too when you were messing with it?
[08:37] <poningru> svrfrmfaith: go to system->admin->synaptic
[08:37] <bodaciousbrian> Does anyone know how to capture audio with ubuntu?
[08:37] <elpargo> bruenig, ok then I'll probably get video downloader and work around it. but still I hate it when companies don't fix their crap and won't let people fix it for them either.
[08:37] <inayet> Shadow6363: I am in the process of downloading .avi video
[08:37] <OmegaCenti> sniDe: then choose the application (or type it in to the command box) and from then on, it will open with the application you specify
[08:37] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: maybe Audacity does audio capture?
[08:37] <pike_> bodaciousbrian: like from a video or what?
[08:37] <Kryten107> not really sure.
[08:37] <bruenig> elpargo, don't use it
[08:37] <svrfrmfaith> no not disabling of ethernet
[08:37] <svrfrmfaith> okay I'm in synaptic
[08:37] <bodaciousbrian> Kryten107, ive heard that
[08:38] <OmegaCenti> bruenig: to each his own.
[08:38] <elpargo> bruenig, that's kind of hard with everyone today posting everything to youtube :)
[08:38] <bodaciousbrian> pike_, just streaming audio... but yeah basically, i want whats being sent though my sound card to be saved to mp3
[08:38] <sniDe> Yeah, but when I do that.. it will open for that particular file, not ALL .cbz / .cbr ..
[08:38] <bruenig> I wrote a youtube download script
[08:38] <sniDe> all files I mean.
[08:38] <bruenig> you want it?
[08:38] <OmegaCenti> sniDe: are you sure about that?
[08:38] <svrfrmfaith> what do I do after I get into synaptic?
[08:38] <n2diy> bruenig: me to, I have ten fingers, why only use three of them on a mouse?
[08:39] <bodaciousbrian> pike_, i dont know if there is anything that listens to ALSA for example, and records it
[08:39] <Ayabara> I need to use my external harddrives in osx and ubuntu. What should I format them to?
[08:39] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: if I'm reading the Audacity features list correctly, you should be able to specify whatever audio input you want
[08:39] <bruenig> n2diy, hard to control someone when you have to worry about whether they clicked the right box or not
[08:39] <bodaciousbrian> Kryten107, ill fire that up now and play with it
[08:40] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: good luck~
[08:40] <UbuntuRocks> brujoh i already have an entry in fstab that works with "mount -a" - but doesn't mount it at boot???
[08:40] <robby> Anyone know the return code for wrong passwrd?
[08:40] <sniDe> My apologies.. I thought it didn;t work before.
[08:40] <elpargo> bruenig, I'll pass there is this really nice firefox extension that takes care of almost all sites.
[08:40] <n2diy> bruenig: yes, and whether the right clicked, left clicked, double clicked, etc...
[08:40] <OmegaCenti> sniDe: no problems. I hope it was helpful
[08:40] <sniDe> Apparently the other cbz / cbr files now can be opened with the Comix application.
[08:40] <sniDe> Yeah, thanks man. I appreciate your help.
[08:40] <bruenig> elpargo, ah but how much easier can it get than $ youtube url
[08:40] <svrfrmfaith> there is no gtkndis
[08:41] <OmegaCenti> sniDe: I was confused as well about this behaviour in the beginning.
[08:41] <bruenig> well if anyone is interested, here is the youtube script: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28941/
[08:41] <elpargo> bruenig, true but then it supports other sites :)
[08:41] <ColdNunya> what does gtkdnis do?
[08:41] <brujoh> UbuntuRocks, I think you might need to make sure the device is called directly in fstab. instead of doing a mount -a (to mount all) try mountint the specific device.
[08:41] <svrfrmfaith> I don't know, I was told to use it
[08:41] <svrfrmfaith> gtkndis
[08:42] <UbuntuRocks> brujoh thanks - that also mounts fine - so it doesn't seem sthere is anything wrong with the fstab entry
[08:42] <ColdNunya> when you blacklisted that driver, and used the new one. does it stop recognizing your wireless card?
[08:42] <svrfrmfaith> I haven't gotten that far at all, I'm stuck on the second step of the instructions
[08:42] <svrfrmfaith> I'm a real noob
[08:42] <svrfrmfaith> I've used Fedora Core in the past
[08:42] <svrfrmfaith> then went to XP because some drivers I needed weren't in open source
[08:42] <n2diy> ! nood
[08:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nood - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:42] <svrfrmfaith> now I'm trying again
[08:42] <n2diy> ! noob
[08:42] <ubotu> Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[08:42] <netyire> hello all, anyone know how to use mencoder to convert an avi file to a dvdauthor compliant pal mpg file
[08:43] <brujoh> UbuntuRocks, what does your fstab entry look like?
[08:43] <svrfrmfaith> I don't know what it means when it says "you need to get the kernal header files"
[08:43] <svrfrmfaith> how/where to get those
[08:43] <Kryten107> n2diy: someone needs to teach ubotu about nood.
[08:43] <svrfrmfaith> and which ones
[08:43] <ColdNunya> you are using what version of ubuntu
[08:43] <ColdNunya> ?
[08:43] <bruenig> netyire, I usually go with ffmpeg -i file -type ntsc-dvd file.mpg
[08:43] <netyire> *hello?
[08:44] <svrfrmfaith> newest one I beliee
[08:44] <svrfrmfaith> just installed
[08:44] <svrfrmfaith> two days ago
[08:44] <ColdNunya> ok, fiesty fawn 7.04 32bit?
[08:44] <netyire> bruenig,  thanks :D. But anyone knows how to use mencoder to do it?
[08:44] <n2diy> Kryten107: roger on the dumb bot. :) 1025 nicks is on the low side, usually we are up near, or above 1100.
[08:44] <svrfrmfaith> how do I find it?
[08:44] <bruenig> why would you want to really
[08:44] <bruenig> ffmpeg is better
[08:44] <netyire> ffmpeg may sometimes make the audio out of sync
[08:44] <netyire> :(
[08:44] <ColdNunya> did you get it from the website?
[08:45] <bruenig> says who?
[08:45] <Kryten107> n2diy: I was just in it for the power of 2, but yeah, this is a crowded room lol
[08:45] <svrfrmfaith> yeah feisty Fawn 7.04 32 bit
[08:45] <svrfrmfaith> that's right
[08:45] <brujoh> UbuntuRocks, may want to make sure it isn't set to noauto
[08:45] <ColdNunya> 1 sec
[08:45] <robby> I wonder if youcan pipe a m4 or sed to ssh?  like m4/sed <file> +1,a,A > ssh www.something.com/.....
[08:45] <John`> how come when i do "rar a /home/name/Desktop/images" it doesn't add the images folder but it add stuff from the desktop?
[08:46] <UbuntuRocks> brojuh - yes, it isn't set to noauto - because mount - a works. i have a feeling the drive isn't ready at the time that bootup tries to mount - is that possible?
[08:46] <netyire> bruenig, hmm, well it may have from past experience. :D anyway, is it possible to use mencoder? (this sounds a bit irritating, right?)
[08:46] <n2diy> Kryten107: got a secret for ya, #ubuntu-classroom is almost empty.
[08:46] <Enselic__> John` try "rar a /home/name/Desktop/images/*.jpg"
[08:46] <bruenig> I sure there is, if the scroll back on your terminal will allow you to see the whole thing
[08:47] <Kryten107> n2diy: I don't mind, I was just surprised. Never been in here before, but helping out seems pretty cool
[08:47] <UbuntuRocks> anyone ever used udev/hal/ivman to automount a usb drive?
[08:47] <brujoh> UbuntuRocks, Good question. I wonder if you have to include the UUID in the fstab entry also.
[08:48] <ImLukeEkblad> yo
[08:48] <n2diy> Kryten107: roger, roger. Getting a TY can be a lot of work, but it is worth it.
[08:48] <ImLukeEkblad> Whats up all?
[08:48] <bruenig> UbuntuRocks, yeah it is setup by default to do that
[08:48] <robby> Lukes Drunk
[08:48] <bodaciousbrian> Kryten107, i cant make audacity record any random thing playing though the sound system =(
[08:48] <nj786> hey why cant i send pics and videos through PIDGEN or GAIM to WINDOWS XP users using AIM
[08:48] <Enselic__> robby: couldn't you sed to a temporary file which you then send to the remote computer
[08:48] <Enselic__> ?
[08:48] <ImLukeEkblad> Robbys High
[08:48] <John`> what would be a command to rar a folder?
[08:48] <UbuntuRocks> bruenig how do you tell it where to mount the drive?
[08:48] <John`> is it still using "rar a
[08:48] <John`> "
[08:48] <robby> lol
[08:48] <ImLukeEkblad> I have a question
[08:49] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: did you fiddle with the input stream? I have limited experience with Audacity and haven't actually touched it in several months
[08:49] <bruenig> UbuntuRocks, on my arch box, it mounts it where I have specified in the fstab
[08:49] <Enselic__> John`: it will be explained how to use the program in "man rar"
[08:49] <ImLukeEkblad> Um, is there anything better than GIMP on linux?
[08:49] <jordan_> How do I suspend to RAM from a terminal?
[08:49] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: you may want to try the development version
[08:49] <robby> Enselic_: You tell me..;)
[08:49] <bodaciousbrian> Kryten107, yeah i have, it might be that my sound card is not installed correctly also... but, i dont know
[08:49] <ImLukeEkblad> wuh?
[08:49] <netyire> hmm install the package that contains s2disk or something
[08:49] <UbuntuRocks> bruenig may i ask what options you have for it in fstab?
[08:50] <bruenig> It is on my laptop which I am not privy to
[08:50] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:  the what?
[08:50] <level1> hi, whats the easiest way to upgrade to kernel 2.6.22?
[08:50] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: you are running GIMP 2.2 right?
[08:50] <ImLukeEkblad> uh huh
[08:50] <ColdNunya> sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.15-25-386
[08:50] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: hm. yeah, that might mess it up. I'd check through Audacity's support or UbuntuForums to see what you can find
[08:50] <svrfrmfaith> thanks!
[08:50] <svrfrmfaith> okay hold on just a second
[08:50] <ColdNunya> or 19
[08:50] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Yes, i am
[08:50] <n2diy> Kryten107: do you see the speaker icon on your menu bar? Those settings will effect Audacity's performance.
[08:50] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: the next version (2.4) is under development, you can try GIMP 2.3 to see how far it has come
[08:50] <level1> ColdNunya: wouldn't that be a downgrade?  and a big one at that
[08:50] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: the version you are using hasn't been improved for like 2 years
[08:51] <svrfrmfaith> didn't work
[08:51] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: with new functinoality, only bugfixes
[08:51] <svrfrmfaith> error
[08:51] <bodaciousbrian> Kryten107, im going to change my soundcard settings from autodetect to something that i can easily set audacity to listen too, and hope it works
[08:51] <svrfrmfaith> "Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg...."
[08:51] <ColdNunya> i think 19 is the current....
[08:51] <svrfrmfaith> 19?
[08:51] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Ok, how do i get the newer one?
[08:51] <level1> ColdNunya: I have 20
[08:51] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: so if you want to find out what the best image editing app looks like for Linux, you need to try GIMP 2.3
[08:51] <ColdNunya> i see.
[08:51] <level1> ColdNunya: so obviously 19 is not current
[08:51] <ColdNunya> sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.20-25-386
[08:51] <ColdNunya> is that correct filename
[08:51] <svrfrmfaith> for me?
[08:51] <netyire> urname -r
[08:52] <jordan_> ImLukeEkblad: I have heard a KDE app recommended, I think it was called krita
[08:52] <ColdNunya> level1
[08:52] <ImLukeEkblad> Whats KDE?
[08:52] <netyire> K desktop environnment
[08:52] <netyire> !kde
[08:52] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu.

See http://kubuntu.org) for more information.
[08:52] <ColdNunya> i havent found the official current #ubuntu
[08:52] <n2diy> ImLukeEkblad: Gnomes sister.
[08:52] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: hm, I dunno, sorry. Good luck, and I'd definitely check the forums if you can't get it working
[08:52] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: Krita is different though, it's a painter app, not an image editor
[08:52] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:    How do i get gimp 2.3?
[08:52] <UbuntuRocks> !hal
[08:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hal - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:52] <UbuntuRocks> !ivman
[08:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ivman - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:52] <UbuntuRocks> !udev
[08:52] <flaccid> !info gimp
[08:53] <bodaciousbrian> Kryten107, where can i find thoes?
[08:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about udev - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:53] <ubotu> gimp: The GNU Image Manipulation Program. In component main, is optional. Version 2.2.13-1ubuntu4.2 (feisty), package size 2899 kB, installed size 7920 kB
[08:53] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: look at ubuntuforums.org, or google for "gimp 2.3 for ubuntu"
[08:53] <bruenig> UbuntuRocks, I think it is probably just /dev/whatever /mount/point vfat defaults 0 0
[08:53] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: http://www.ubuntuforums.org - Your Best Friend Ever
[08:53] <bruenig> since I had to write it and I am lazy
[08:53] <flaccid> ImLukeEkblad: yeah i had to d/l manual and install - still not in ubuntu packages
[08:53] <jordan_> How do I suspend to RAM from a terminal?
[08:53] <bodaciousbrian> Kryten107, awsome, thanks for the help
[08:53] <Shadow6363> inayet, sorry things are slow, did you get that video yet?
[08:53] <Kryten107> bodaciousbrian: you're welcome, good luck~
[08:54] <svrfrmfaith> what the heck does it mean when the terminal says E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[08:54] <svrfrmfaith> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[08:54] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: I can guide you if you want to
[08:54] <jordan_> svrfrmfaith: You are running another package manager
[08:54] <svrfrmfaith> haha got it
[08:54] <robby> Enselic__: you have prior exp with sed to remote?
[08:55] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Ok
[08:55] <n2diy> svrfrmfaith: another package manager is using it, you need to close Synaptic, apt-get whatever, so the lock file goes away.
[08:55] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: first, download the latest release from www.gimp.org
[08:55] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: (2.3.18)
[08:55] <flaccid> 2.3 is heaps better
[08:55] <netyire> can you disable the lock file?
[08:55] <Ayabara> can I mount hfs+ in ubuntu?
[08:55] <svrfrmfaith> okay still having serious problems with the second step of these weireless instructions
[08:55] <Enselic__> robby: how do you want to use it?
[08:55] <svrfrmfaith> wireless*
[08:55] <Frogzoo> jordan_: sudo pmi action suspend
[08:55] <ColdNunya> http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/devel/
[08:56] <UbuntuRocks> thanks bruengi - trying it out now... do you need ivman or is udev/hal enough?
[08:56] <ColdNunya> it says 15 is current
[08:56] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Ok
[08:56] <jordan_> Frogzoo: Thank you
[08:56] <netyire> ayabara: I think you can, the forum or help.ubuntu.com may have info on it though
[08:56] <ColdNunya> but hell if i know thats what your using
[08:56] <svrfrmfaith> says "Couldn't find package linux-headers-2.6.15-386
[08:56] <brad016> how do you run bittorent from the command line?
[08:56] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: let me know when it has downloaded
[08:56] <brad016> just start it
[08:56] <netyire> install rtorrent
[08:56] <brad016> its allready installed
[08:57] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   how do i install the 2.3 one?
[08:57] <Ayabara> netyire, ok, I'll do some more research
[08:57] <robby> just wondering
[08:57] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: have you downloaded the latest release?
[08:57] <ColdNunya> http://ubuntu.secs.oakland.edu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.20/linux-headers-2.6.20-15-386_2.6.20-15.27_i386.deb
[08:57] <n2diy> brad016: are you spelling it correctly, I thought it was bitorrent?
[08:57] <nicola> -irc.net
[08:57] <Kryten107> n2diy: nope, bittorrent, as in a torrent of bits
[08:57] <brad016> n2diy, ya thats it, thanks man
[08:58] <brad016> n2diy, apriciate it
[08:58] <Kryten107> n2diy
[08:58] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   The newest releas is 2.2.18
[08:58] <Kryten107> n2diy: ouch, nevermind.
[08:58] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: 2.3.18
[08:58] <svrfrmfaith> k it's installing
[08:58] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: the latest development release
[08:58] <svrfrmfaith> thanks for walking me through this
[08:58] <ImLukeEkblad> I dont know to to download that tho
[08:58] <n2diy> :)
[08:58] <UbuntuRocks> bruenig - do you know where i can look for debug info to see why its not mounting my usb drive automatically?
[08:58] <Kryten107> n2diy: and that came off as unintentionally condescending
[08:58] <bruenig> no, hal is confusing
[08:58] <Yorii> What's a good bittorrent client for unbuntu? Azureus crashes on me for no apparent reason :/
[08:58] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: where are you from? Ill give you a link
[08:58] <Yorii> Ubuntu*
[08:58] <svrfrmfaith> okay I believe I have the latest version of ndiswrapper
[08:58] <n2diy> Kryten107: nada
[08:58] <svrfrmfaith> and I did all that make install stuff
[08:58] <oksana> Yorii: deluge
[08:58] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: where shall I pick a mirror for you?
[08:59] <bruenig> Yorii, azurues is one of the worst clients out there
[08:59] <svrfrmfaith> step 8
[08:59] <brad016> n2 but you cant run it form that
[08:59] <svrfrmfaith> is the next one that I'm really stuck on
[08:59] <bruenig> Yorii, utorrent is good though give it a try
[08:59] <Kr[A] p> hi, i've prob running ubuntu 7.04 desktop 64bit LiveCD. After selecting 'run or install ubuntu' in Menu, it loads awhile then my screen goes blank 'no signal' Any help? Tks.
[08:59] <Yorii> I know, but other than uTorrent, Azureus was the only one I could think of
[08:59] <Yorii> and I cba with Wine :P
[08:59] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Washington state, Us of America, Earth, Milky way
[08:59] <netyire> Yorii: try ktorrent
[08:59] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: :d
[08:59] <Yorii> not using KDE
[08:59] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:  lol
[08:59] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: http://gimp.mirrors.hoobly.com/gimp/v2.3/
[09:00] <netyire> Yorii: you can run it even if you're not in kde
[09:00] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: there is a list of mirrors at gimp.org, so you know next time
[09:00] <Nutubuntu> Maybe a better question (than my how-do-I about X crashing) might be, is there anything I can put in place that would make a record of what's crashing X, as it happens? rather than trying to look back through the logs?
[09:00] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: now grab 2.3.18
[09:00] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: and download it somewhere
[09:00] <netyire> Yorii: type sudo apt-get install ktorrent
[09:00] <netyire> its a great client
[09:00] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   ok, whats one?
[09:00] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:  theres like 90
[09:00] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: http://gimp.mirrors.hoobly.com/gimp/v2.3/gimp-2.3.18.tar.bz2
[09:00] <ompaul> !bootoptions > Kr[A] p  (check the message from the bot - ubotu it tells you all you need to know)
[09:01] <ImLukeEkblad> OMG
[09:01] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: yeah but only one is latest... 2.3.*18*
[09:01] <Nutubuntu> (although in the plus column, I won a $5 gift cert to amazon while searching for info on the X crash ...)
[09:01] <ImLukeEkblad> um, can you wait 17 hours?
[09:01] <ColdNunya> i gotta get going. good luck
[09:01] <Jordan_U> Frogzoo, pmi action suspend didn't suspend the computer successfully but choosing suspend from Gnome does ( it just doesn't resume, which I think is a problem with fglrx, which is why I am trying to suspend without X running to check )
[09:01] <Kr[A] p> ompaul: okie. thanks
[09:01] <UbuntuRocks> bruenig - so you're saying i should use ivman instead?
[09:01] <ColdNunya><EMAIL_ADDRESS>if you get it working
[09:01] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   OHHHHHH, nvm, 17 minuts
[09:01] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: you might wanna try out different mirrors
[09:02] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: sure
[09:02] <ImLukeEkblad> lol
[09:02] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Sooo, it is way better?
[09:02] <Frogzoo> jordan_: sudo pmi action suspend
[09:02] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: GIMP is the best image editor for Linux
[09:02] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: and it's better
[09:02] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: I'm a developer of it
[09:02] <Jordan_U> Frogzoo, I used sudo
[09:02] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:  Wooh, really?
[09:03] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: we aim for releasing 2.4 in some months
[09:03] <Jordan_U> Frogzoo, The screen went blank and the computer froze but it wasn't suspended
[09:03] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   How dose it compare to Photoshop?
[09:03] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: what about 2.2 don't you like btw?
[09:03] <level1_> Enselic__: I never liked the multi document interface, personally... is there a way around that, to force it to be single document or tabbed?
[09:04] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Yeah, its good I guess, but I miss photoshop
[09:04] <level1_> ImLukeEkblad: try it for yourself
[09:04] <Nutubuntu> Enselic__,  truly? I owe you guys a huge thank-you - GIMP is outstanding
[09:04] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: it lacks some things that would make it interesting for professionals, mostly more than 8-bit color deepth
[09:04] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Why cant you make it more than that?
[09:04] <Enselic__> level1_: the UI is controverisal
[09:04] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: we are, bu that will be in 2.6
[09:04] <robby> Is there any error code or return code for incorrect passwrd?
[09:05] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: first we need to get 2.4 out
[09:05] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: since 2.4 is several yearslod
[09:05] <Enselic__> 2.2 i mean
[09:05] <flaccid> the selection features in 2.3 is what makes it decent
[09:05] <EADG> level1_: Have a look at PhotoGimp, supposedly makes it more like PS gui, haven't tried it myself thought.
[09:05] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Cool
[09:05] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: GIMP will make use of a new image processing core, called GEGL
[09:05] <flaccid> its gimpshop
[09:05] <level1_> so, how can I install new linux headers?
[09:06] <brujoh> robby from a failed su the return code seems to be 1
[09:06] <Jordan_U> Enselic__, From outer space?
[09:06] <Enselic__> Jordan_U: ?
[09:06] <Ayabara> it seems that hfs/hfsplus support is there, but I can't find much info on reliability. I'm gonna use OSX and Ubuntu and want to find the right format for my external hd without using fat32 :)
[09:06] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   So, what verson of the gimp will be as good as ps cs3?
[09:06] <level1_> flaccid, EADG: they aren't in the repositories
[09:06] <level1_> Ayabara: something against fat32?
[09:06] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: that's a long time left, but we are getting closer and closer day by day
[09:06] <nj786> hey why cant i send pics and videos through PIDGEN or GAIM to WINDOWS XP users using AIM?????
[09:07] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:  cool
[09:07] <EADG> flaccid: thanks,
[09:07] <Enselic__> nj786: migt be because there is no support for that yet
[09:07] <jeremysan> What is the best way to install ndisWrapper?
[09:07] <nj786> Enselic__: meaning?
[09:07] <Enselic__> nj786: noone has writtens support for that
[09:07] <level1_> Enselic__: theres support for images, it just seems to be fussy
[09:07] <Jordan_U> Enselic__, It's a Gnome easter egg, open the run dialog and run "gegls from outer space"
[09:07] <flaccid> level1: i already said that
[09:08] <Enselic__> nj786: or well there might be, test the latest code
[09:08] <nj786> Enselic__: ok how do i test it from where?
[09:08] <Enselic__> nj786: you need to build from source to get the latest
[09:08] <jeremysan> What is the best way to install NDISwrapper?
[09:08] <level1_> nj786: keep trying, sometimes it takes a few attempts
[09:08] <robby> Jermeysan: having wireless issues?
[09:08] <level1_> its annoying
[09:08] <jeremysan> yes robby.
[09:09] <brad016> does Ubuntu have python preinstalled?
[09:09] <Jordan_U> brad016, Yes
[09:09] <robby> 1 moment got the page
[09:09] <jeremysan> well I wouldn't say issues, It's just that I bought a wireless USB card and the only way to install it (as far as I know) is with NDISwrapper
[09:09] <brad016> Jordan_U, neat
[09:09] <Jordan_U> brad016, Ubuntu <3 Python :)
[09:09] <jeremysan> So I'm trying to figure out the best way to do that
[09:09] <brad016> Jordan_U, what?
[09:09] <Ayabara> level1, just a feeling that it's not the best choice if I can mount hfs from ubuntu or ext2/3 from os x
[09:09] <vinneh> anyone having trouble installing extensions in firefox?
[09:10] <robby> jermeysan: linksys?
[09:10] <jeremysan> robby, not linksys, D-Link
[09:10] <bruenig> vinneh, no nobody
[09:10] <brad016> Jordan_U, where is python?
[09:10] <robby> k
[09:10] <vinneh> ayabara
[09:10] <tonsofpcs> what is the difference between remove and completely remove in synaptic?
[09:10] <Jordan_U> brad016, Just run "python" in a terminal
[09:10] <n2diy> Does anybody have experience with NaDa? I installed it, but I'm not sure if it is working or not? http://www.bernardbelanger.com/computing/NaDa/
[09:10] <vinneh> i know a lot about osx
[09:10] <brad016> Jordan_U, got it
[09:11] <bruenig> tonsofpcs, remove is like apt-get remove, completely remove is like apt-get remove --purge
[09:11] <flaccid> tonsofpcs: completely remove purges the config files as well
[09:11] <vinneh> i missed the start of your conversation
[09:11] <Jordan_U> tonsofpcs, remove completely remves config files
[09:11] <vinneh> but have you tried FUSE
[09:11] <ImLukeEkblad> Enselic__:   Ok, i'm trying to learn graphic art  possibly for a career someday.  Would The GIMP be good enough for that?
[09:11] <tonsofpcs> so you would remove for an update/upgrade/reinstall but completely remove if it f'd something up and you don't want to see it again?
[09:11] <bruenig> ImLukeEkblad, probably not
[09:11] <ImLukeEkblad> Why not?
[09:11] <Enselic__> ImLukeEkblad: printing professionals need feature not yet provided by GIMP
[09:11] <Ayabara> vinneh, nope. My Mac arrives in a couple of days, and I thought I'd reformat my external drives today.
[09:11] <bruenig> tonsofpcs, I would completely remove always unless you are hosting some webserver or something in which you have done a bunch of manual editing to configuration files in /etc
[09:12] <RRRRRRRRR> alguien sabe espaol??
[09:12] <Frogzoo> tonsofpcs: complete removal erases the configs in /etc
[09:12] <bruenig> !es
[09:12] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[09:12] <jeremysan> What is the best way to install NDISwrapper?
[09:12] <Jordan_U> Ayabara, You can't mount ext2/3 from OSx and you can't mount hfs+ RW on Linux unless you turn off journaling :(
[09:12] <vinneh> thats not correct
[09:12] <vinneh> fuse will do it
[09:12] <bruenig> ImLukeEkblad, you can probably learn on it, but gimp is not as strong as photoshop in terms of features
[09:12] <vinneh> im sure fuse will do it
[09:12] <Nutubuntu> Enselic__,  I'm curious to know which features you are referring to - not yet in GIMP - needed by printing professionals
[09:12] <ripper> how do i remove a newer version of libc6 and install the old one back?
[09:13] <tonsofpcs> thanks guys :) [I tried installing compiz and it killed gdm]
[09:13] <vinneh> fuse in most ubuntu repos, and is also in fink, and darwinports
[09:13] <Frogzoo> !appdb | ImLukeEkblad: you can get PS to run in wine:
[09:13] <ImLukeEkblad> Do you think that There will ever be a program on Ubuntu that will be as good as Photoshop?
[09:13] <ubotu> ImLukeEkblad: you can get PS to run in wine:: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[09:13] <Enselic__> Nutubuntu: support for higher bit-deepth, and better CMYK support
[09:13] <Jordan_U> Nutubuntu, CYMK support is a big one
[09:13] <n2diy> ripper: very carefully, that is a critical piece of software.
[09:13] <Enselic__> Nutubuntu: that's the the most important things missing
[09:13] <vinneh> fuse even has ntfs read write
[09:13] <robby> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsDlink  try this site, it gave me step by step
[09:13] <flaccid> ImLukeEkblad: gimp is just as good if you learn
[09:13] <ripper> n2diy yeah i upgraded it and it removed g++ and a bunch of other stuff
[09:13] <ripper> i need all that back
[09:14] <flaccid> photoshop 7 runs well in wine
[09:14] <ImLukeEkblad> Ok
[09:14] <Nutubuntu> I am still *very* impressed with GIMP
[09:14] <bruenig> ripper, how would it remove g++?
[09:14] <UberPsyX> hi, im trying to install guild wars nightfall, my cd wont mount so i downloaded the client, it loaded once, got to login screen but i had no mouse so i closed. Now when it connects to areanet it freezes my pc at 100% and i have to force quit to get out again
[09:14] <tonsofpcs> flaccid: really? at full 32bpp?
[09:14] <svrfrmfaith> how do I "view" the wireless network?
[09:14] <n2diy> ripper: have you checked synaptic/
[09:14] <ripper> not yet
[09:14] <netyire> UberPsyX: check winehq for help or use cedega
[09:14] <n2diy> /?
