[00:00] <fogobogo> matrix: btw. vlc has a shoutcast listing plugin.
[00:01] <tsukasa_> legend2440: i put /boot on a non-raided partition, i got to grub but it wont boot
[00:01] <Muchon> #ubuntu-es
[00:01] <tsukasa_> legend2440: is there a way to remedy that without putting / on a normal partition? or at the very least, to put / on a lvm partition to minimize hd space loss
[00:01] <matrix> ok i installed xmms2 when i play now streamtuner i still get error xmms not found

[00:04] <drkguy> How can i force apt to download something off a specific repo???

[00:04] <matrix> no i want to play radios station on my streamtuner
[00:04] <droopsta915> anyone ever play war chess for linux?

[00:04] <Jakob_the_liar> how do i make that writeable

[00:04] <matrix> when i play on my streattuner it can not found my xmms
[00:04] <drkguy> Jakob_the_liar: mount it first, then you can really write to it
[00:04] <Jakob_the_liar> it is mounted
[00:05] <unop> Cpudan80, that's better
[00:05] <unop> Cpudan80, so what's the problem now? permissions?
[00:05] <jdavis__> how do I look to see what passwords are in a keyring and delete some?
[00:05] <drkguy> Jakob_the_liar: gksu nautilus
[00:05] <Cpudan80> unop: I can't write anything to the drive
[00:05] <Jakob_the_liar> hence why it says /dev/sdb on /media/sdb type vfat
[00:05] <fogobogo> matrix: check you configuration
[00:05] <fogobogo> *your
[00:05] <Cpudan80> unop: /home/debrac/ITDrive is owned by me, and chmoded appropriately
[00:05] <tsukasa_> okay, so will LVM work with grub and boot the kernel without any special linux magic?
[00:05] <unop> Cpudan80, have you checked both the share and directory permissions on the server?
[00:05] <Jakob_the_liar> what is that supposed to do drkguy
[00:06] <Cpudan80> unop: Also The files look weird, if I do an ls -l -- they all have yellow backgrounds with green text
[00:06] <Jakob_the_liar> that just opens up nautilus
[00:06] <Cpudan80> unop: Yes, it works fine in windows
[00:06] <fogobogo> matrix: there should be something like "play stream with this app" . and its set to xmms.
[00:06] <Mauricio>  #ubuntu-es
[00:06] <fogobogo> matrix: so. change it.
[00:06] <drkguy> Jakob_the_liar: it allows you to move to browse files as root

[00:07] <lolufail> will the standard initrd boot from raid5 AND luks AND lvm?
[00:07] <Bucketface> Hi, how do I find my native MAC address :<?
[00:07] <Cpudan80> unop: I could do that
[00:07] <unop> Jakob_the_liar, what does this command give you?  echo $UID
[00:07] <Jakob_the_liar> cp: cannot create regular file `/media/sdb/Resume.odt': Read-only file system
[00:07] <Cpudan80> unop: The credentials file has dir_mode=0700 and file_mode=0700 is that right?
[00:07] <carandraug> droopsta915: yes you can. Check if unrar is installed
[00:07] <matrix> i can not find that where to change my xmms settings on streamtuner
[00:07] <Cpudan80> unop: with the appropriate login information obviously
[00:07] <Jakob_the_liar> 1000 unop

[00:08] <unop> Jakob_the_liar, your UID does not correspond with that used to mount the volume
[00:08] <droopsta915> carandraug: is that in the apps?
[00:08] <Jakob_the_liar> what do i do unop
[00:08] <unop> Cpudan80, you mean that's the contents of the credentials file?
[00:08] <matrix> yes but where is select a music player

[00:08] <Syco54645_AAO> can someone please direct me to a guide on making deb files from directory structures
[00:09] <matrix> no its not
[00:09] <carandraug> droopsta915: it's in the synapctic package manager. Run "aptitude search unrar" You must have an i (of installed) before it or a p (from purge) if not
[00:09] <histo> Syco54645_AAO: what are you trying to do?
[00:09] <unop> Jakob_the_liar, mount -t vfat -o uid=$UID,gid=${GID:-$UID} /dev/sdb /media/sdb

[00:09] <matrix> what
[00:10] <unop> Cpudan80, i am not sure the credentials file supports dir_mode and file_mode .. in anycase, why don't you put these options in fstab ?
[00:10] <Cpudan80> unop: I could
[00:10] <unop> Cpudan80, i think you should .. the manpage seems to indicate only the username and password options are legal
[00:11] <Jakob_the_liar> didnt work unop

[00:13] <ivx> hi, I have one computer with 2 users and I want to be able to have shared folders. for example, i want to have a music folder in my and my wife's home directory that is the same, so we both can add to it and delete from it and not have to worry about permission problems. what would be a good way to do this? I've been trying NFS but not having very good luck
[00:13] <carandraug> carandraug: no problem. Check if it's working. If for some reason you can't, you can always use the terminal
[00:13] <sudobash> ok i have figured out everything except this: it is telling me i have invald subnet number/mask combo... subnet <IP_ADDRESS> netmask <IP_ADDRESS>
[00:13] <superrad> i need to reformat my hdd to change the partitions, could I just copy my ubuntu install to a backup drive by doing sudo cp -a /*location of ubuntu root* from a live cd then reformat then copy it back to the new partition in the same way then edit fstab and grub?
[00:13] <tsukasa_> will LVM work with grub and boot the kernel without any special linux magic?
[00:13] <matrix> when i double click on listen to a .m3u.file nothing happens
[00:13] <tsukasa_> will LVM work with grub and boot the kernel without any special linux magic?
[00:14] <Kai_wp> Can Ubuntu mount an ISO larger than 4GBs without any modifications?
[00:14] <carandraug> Jakob_the_liar: no problem. Check if it's working. If for some reason you can't, you can always use the terminal
[00:14] <matrix> when i double click on listen to a .m3u.file nothing happens
[00:14] <unop> tsukasa_, to save yourself from headaches .. keep /boot on a non-lvm partition
[00:14] <Kai_wp> I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron 32-bit
[00:15] <matrix> when i double click on listen to a .m3u.file nothing happens
[00:15] <unop> ivx, is the shared folder a local directory or a network share?
[00:15] <fogobogo> matrix: what player do you use now for streamtuner?
[00:15] <lolufail> does the standard mkinitramfs command detect a xfs over lvm over dm-crypt over md-raid setup?
[00:15] <tsukasa_> unop: okay, but / will work on a lvm partition? the reason im asking is because i actually want / on a raid0 partition but its not booting
[00:15] <legend2440> matrix: right click the m3u then properties>open with
[00:15] <tsukasa_> unop: so im wondering if i have to have / on lvm
[00:15] <usb> hello everyone
[00:15] <ivx> unop, local dir, I just have one computer,
[00:15] <matrix> i right click nothing happens
[00:15] <hml> rocks cluster linux is redhat based; if i want to do clustering with a debian/ubuntu based distro; what shoul.d i use?
[00:16] <droopsta915> i got warchesssetup.exe open in wine, whats the best place to put the setup in?
[00:16] <unop> tsukasa_, / can exist on lvm .. maybe you should check with the LVM howto as to whether you have it all setup properly
[00:16] <matrix> all i want is to play streamtunder radio shoutcast it does not matter which mediaplayer to play with it
[00:16] <usb> when anyone has a minute, i have a question about mounting an external usb drive
[00:16] <Sixofour|Sleep> ok
[00:16] <tsukasa_> unop: okay, do you know if / can exist on raid0?
[00:17] <superrad> usb: whats your question?
[00:17] <carandraug> !ask | usb
[00:17] <unop> ivx, put both users in a common group .. make that group owner of the directory and mount it under your home directories (see the --bind option to mount for that)
[00:17] <usb> when in my external harddrive, it no longer is recognized by ubuntu
[00:17] <usb> i run fdisk -l and it doesn't even show up
[00:17] <usb> any ideas on why this is? it worked before
[00:17] <unop> ivx, you might also like to chmod g+s /that/directory to make life a little easier
[00:18] <carandraug> usb: did you removed it unsafely from windows last time you used it?
[00:18] <unop> tsukasa_, sure, that's possible too
[00:18] <nachomania> Hello!
[00:18] <usb> im not sure, its been awhile since i've used it
[00:18] <tsukasa_> unop: do you need to do anything special? i got to grub with / on raid0 and it says it cant boot from it
[00:18] <Cpudan80> unop: without the UID part it wont let me ls into the drive
[00:18] <superrad> i need to reformat my hdd to change the partitions, could I just copy my ubuntu install to a backup drive by doing sudo cp -a /*location of ubuntu root* /*location of backupdrive* from a live cd then reformat then copy it back to the new partition in the same way then edit fstab and grub?
[00:19] <unop> usb, did you try   sudo fdisk -l
[00:19] <Cpudan80> unop: I changed it to uid=$UID
[00:19] <stephen_> I'm PREPARING to install the nvidia video driver, and it says I need to first stop the "X-Server" and enable VGA mode by default. Can someone help me do this?
[00:19] <carandraug> usb: even if you didn't remove it safely from windows, I think it still should appear in "sudo fdisk -l"
[00:19] <lolufail> where is a more technical channel for ubuntu questions?
[00:19] <unop> Cpudan80, perhaps the permissions on the mount point need to be adjusted
[00:19] <kitche> superrad: just be easier to use dd really for that
[00:19] <unop> lolufail, this would be it.
[00:19] <yuri_> im having no luck with my contact list. i can browse the web from my phone.. anybody know a way to sync my gmail contacts?
[00:19] <Cpudan80> unop: the permissions on the mount point itself are 777 for my user
[00:19] <superrad> kitche: whats dd?
[00:19] <nachomania> Could someone running ubuntu on a laptop pm me?
[00:19] <unop> Cpudan80, are you owner of that directory?
[00:20] <Kai_wp> Does anyone know how to mount an iso larger than 4 GBs on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron 32-bit?
[00:20] <carandraug> usb: you have to run fdisk -l as sudo. I noticed you didn't
[00:20] <nachomania> thank!
[00:20] <lolufail> unop: huh. good thing there are so few noobs in here...
[00:20] <usb> carandraug: it used to be under /dev/sdb1, but now it isn't. the only thing that shows up are /dev/sda1,2,5 .. which is my internal harddrive
[00:20] <unop> Kai_wp, i don't think there is a limit if you mount under loop?  what have you tried so far?
[00:20] <carandraug> usb: you said you ran "fdisk -l" You have to run it with sudo
[00:21] <Cpudan80> unop: yep
[00:21] <[SCKESLUNA]> anyone know how to put the clock back in the top right corner, i deleted it from the panel on accident, and i put it back on, but it won't go back to where it was

[00:21] <kitche> superrad: disk druid is what it's called it's like a disk copy program kinda man dd to learn more really
[00:21] <usb> carand: yeah, sorry. my bad. i actually ran 'sudo fdisk -l"sorry about the nonexactness
[00:21] <unop> Cpudan80, not sure why that is .. you should atleast be able to ls files .. but anyway .
[00:21] <ja> Does anyone know how I would go about getting my laptop to recognize the RAM I put into it?
[00:21] <Kai_wp> unop: I was using some software called Kiso to mount it. Although, even when I simply try to open the iso in Ubuntu it calls it invalid. Even though a windows ISO rerader can read it without problems.
[00:21] <carandraug> [SCKESLUNA]: right click on it and select move
[00:21] <superrad> kitche: thanks i'll have a look now
[00:22] <Kai_wp> unop: Should I be using the "mount" command?
[00:22] <Abztrakt23> partitioning is driving me nuts
[00:22] <Cpudan80> unop: it can ls (well, for now anyway) - but in tNautilus it does weird things
[00:22] <mano> hello all... I have a question about ubuntu and swap space on disk... i have a laptop with 2gb ram, do i need a swap space? can i just disable it?
[00:22] <[SCKESLUNA]> won't go back to the very end of the toolbar
[00:22] <unop> Kai_wp, try mounting it like this.   sudo mkdir /media/iso;  sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop /path/to/file.iso /media/iso
[00:22] <Kai_wp> unop: Alright, but this won't extract the iso, right?
[00:22] <carandraug> [SCKESLUNA]: right click on the other ones and make sure they're not "locked to panel"
[00:22] <unop> Kai_wp, no
[00:23] <evilryu> it
[00:23] <Kai_wp> unop: Alright, I'll try. :)
[00:23] <tsukasa_> unop: do you need to do anything special? i got to grub with / on raid0 and it says it cant boot from it

[00:31] <[SCKESLUNA]> alright, is there any way to have VLC start up immediately after you click a .wmv file on a website, instead of having the download window come up? i click on "do this automatically" but it still comes up, i did the same thing with a .mpeg and the download window doesn't come up anymore on those
[00:31] <korupted> 0.0.25
[00:32] <korupted> everything is good but the guichan is in the /usr/local/lib directory
[00:32] <Barqs> could anyone help me fix choppy videos? glxinfo says direct rendering is enabled. i'm using ubuntu hardy. The file type is .avi. Any ideas?
[00:33] <carandraug> [SCKESLUNA]: try looking in the perferences menu. There's a tab called content and a field called "file types" change it there
[00:33] <korupted> oh i got it i typoed /user/local/lib suppose to be /usr/local/lib
[00:34] <korupted> yep it works now
[00:34] <korupted> thanks again guys
[00:34] <[SCKESLUNA]> idk, for some reason, it doesnt fix the bypass the download window
[00:34] <tsukasa_> unop: do you know if i did anything wrong?
[00:35] <philip__> can someone help me? I modified my ubuntu hardy theme to leopard mac theme and now in programs such as evolution the "file, view, etc.." is missing from the toolbar
[00:35] <droopsta915> im trying to uninstall wine, anyone know how
[00:35] <histo> [SCKESLUNA]: I believe there is a vlc plugin for firefox
[00:35] <unop> tsukasa_, well, obviously .. but i don't know enough of raid to ascertain what is wrong
[00:35] <drkguy> !kernel
[00:35] <nutricycle> good morning, could anyone tell me where the Vsync setting is for the cube effect?
[00:35] <unop> tsukasa_, i would use the RAID howto from tldp
[00:36] <histo> [SCKESLUNA]: with that you could have it play in the browser. However if you right click on a downloaded wmv and go to properties youc an change the default open app.
[00:36] <bofh80> [SCKESLUNA], sudo apt-get install mozilla-plugin-vlc or use synaptic to install it
[00:36] <histo> nutricycle: in gconf or are you using compizconfig-settings-manager?
[00:36] <nutricycle> histo, CSM
[00:36] <histo> bofh80: aptitude
[00:37] <histo> nutricycle: belive its under general settings
[00:37] <Barqs>  could anyone help me fix choppy videos? glxinfo says direct rendering is enabled. i'm using ubuntu hardy. The file type is .avi. Any ideas?
[00:37] <bofh80> [SCKESLUNA], if you have any problems, try the mozilla-mplayer plugin, works very well for me
[00:38] <nutricycle> histo, thanks youre right
[00:38] <bofh80> histo, aptitude?? instead of synaptic? WHY? :P
[00:38] <danbhfive> Barqs: are you using totem?  Maybe give vlc a try?
[00:38] <DOT3CH> can someone help me get this splash theme installed that i downloaded
[00:38] <[SCKESLUNA]> thanks guys
[00:38] <Clyde> Hello all, I'm trying to install Ubuntu but it says it can't detect the CD-ROM drive. Can anyone help?
[00:38] <Barqs> danbhfive: I've been using totem-xine yeah. Should I search "vlc" in synaptic?
[00:39] <[SCKESLUNA]> Barqs: i'd use apt-get
[00:39] <outbriber> Barqs: sudo apt-get install vlc should work
[00:39] <Barqs> [SCKESLUNA]: okay.
[00:39] <[SCKESLUNA]> do what outbriber said
[00:39] <Barqs> outbriber: will do.
[00:39] <histo> bofh80: much better handling of orphaned packages
[00:39] <nutricycle> could anyone give some advice for emulators?
[00:40] <Kai_wp> unop: It worked!  Or a video decoding/streaming engine?
[00:41] <histo> bofh80: thats just what I choose
[00:41] <histo> Barqs: yes.
[00:41] <Barqs> histo: okay, thank you.
[00:41] <nutricycle> histo, i need emus with front ends for, nes, snes, SMS, SMG, mame, sinclair spectrum, MSX
[00:41] <carandraug> !eg | ricky8
[00:41] <cutandbrused> How do i make my audio work on wine
[00:42] <[SCKESLUNA]> histo, i double that from nutricycle
[00:42] <bofh80> cutandbrused, winecfg
[00:42] <bofh80> cutandbrused, in a terminal sorry
[00:42] <carandraug> ricky8: egiptian channel in #ubuntu-eg
[00:42] <danbhfive> !xine
[00:42] <danbhfive> !hi
[00:42] <bofh80> cutandbrused, sorry i'm flooding. winecfg in a terminal, little gui pops up, audio tab, i think choose ALSA. unless someone else?
[00:43] <danbhfive> !askthebot
[00:43] <Kai_wp> I'm not sure if this is the place to ask. But, does anyone know if resizing my Wubi's "partition"  to be larger is risky when dual-booting with windows xp pro sp2 on an NTFS HD?
[00:43] <bofh80> Kai_wp, well it depends what you mean by risk. have you got your valuble data backed up? if not it's a big risk :)
[00:44] <Flannel> Kai_wp: Wubi doesn't dual boot "really", it sits in a file inside your windows partition.  Resizing it should be fine, there's no danger of breaking your windows partition (just running out of space)
[00:44] <FarmCretin> howdy, how can i use ls exclusively? i want to list all the files that do NOT end in *.nfo    so far im thinking it would look something like       ls ! '*.nfo'
[00:44] <palomer> I loaded a disk
[00:44] <cutandbrused> will Winecfg play my diablo 2
[00:44] <palomer> how can I tell the filesystem?
[00:44] <carandraug> cutandbrused: yes
[00:45] <Kai_wp> Flannel: Alright. Although, I assume I'll have to use "PartedMagic" to increase the "partitions" size?
[00:45] <jrib> FarmCretin: no, pipe to grep.  Alternatively, use a nice shell like zsh.
[00:45] <palomer> ls | grep "*[^o"] might work
[00:45] <palomer> err
[00:45] <palomer> .*[^o]
[00:45] <Barqs> Guys, even with VLC media player the video is still choppy. It's not pixelated, it's not slowed down or unresponsive, however the screen flickers black screens every once millisecond.
[00:45] <Flannel> FarmCretin: ls -l | grep -v .nfo
[00:45] <carandraug> cutandbrused: according to winehq, it runs flawlessly (platinum medal for every review with Diablo II, with and without LoD)
[00:45] <Flannel> Kai_wp: No, no.  I'm... actually not sure how you'd increase wubi's size.  But theres *no* parititoning at all.
[00:46] <danbhfive> Barqs: maybe you should try totem-gstreamer instead of xine
[00:46]  * cyphase is so annoyed when open-source projects make GUIs for Windows and Mac, but not Linux, because "Linux people know how to use the command line"
[00:46] <Barqs> danbhfive: The problem is I'm not sure exactly which one the players are using... I have both installed.
[00:46] <danbhfive> Barqs: remove totem-xine
[00:46] <linduxed> is there a nice app that could work as an alarm clock?
[00:46] <carandraug> palomer: run "sudo fdisk -l" to know the filesystem
[00:46] <jrib> FarmCretin: in zsh, you have: ls -d ^*.nfo
[00:47] <cyphase> linduxed: yea, it's called alarm-clock :)/ one second, let me get the link
[00:47] <warnush> can anyone tell me where the kernel source tree is (or what the synpatic package is) ?
[00:47] <FarmCretin> Flannel: that did it, but i want to write it out. adding |nano makes it all smushed together
[00:47] <Flannel> FarmCretin: write it out?
[00:47] <nutricycle> cyphase when they start doing that linux will spread like wildfire, especially now there is wubi (although it wont let you install on another HD)
[00:47] <Flannel> FarmCretin: to a file you mean?
[00:47] <palomer> and how do I format a disk?
[00:47] <Barqs> danbhfive: It appears to be the same without xine, so I'm assuming they must be using gstreamer?
[00:47] <FarmCretin> Flannel: yes
[00:47] <Flannel> FarmCretin: ls -l | grep -v .nfo | tee filename.txt or ls -l | grep -v .nfo > filename.txt
[00:47] <FarmCretin> Flannel: is it possible to make nano play nice?
[00:48] <danbhfive> Barqs: how did you get xine in the first place?
[00:48] <Flannel> FarmCretin: you don't need nano, just pipe it straight into a file.
[00:48] <StepNjump> Hi guys. Does anyone know what kind of software I could use to synchronize folders between Ubuntu and Vista?
[00:48] <cutandbrused> I cant find how to get winecfg?
[00:48] <spideyman> hello
[00:48] <FarmCretin> thanks Flannel , learn somthing new every day
[00:48] <warnush> StepNjump: rsync ?
[00:48] <kcman> i have an archive file type that i need to unpack so that it is one file again, is there an app for this??
[00:48] <StepNjump> Hi warnush
[00:48] <warnush> cutandbrused: did you install wine ?
[00:48] <StepNjump> Thank you
[00:49] <palomer> does ubuntu have full ntfs read/write support?
[00:49] <cutandbrused> yes
[00:49] <StepNjump> Where can I get this?
[00:49] <Barqs> danbhfive: I got amarok since I use it for all my music, and it usually runs with xine, so I searched xine in synaptic and found totem-xine and installed it.
[00:49] <carandraug> cutandbrused: that's the configuration menu of wine. Install wine and you're ready to join battle.net
[00:49]  * student likes it when the gui and the cli are both good (see: apt & synaptic)
[00:49] <jrib> kcman: you need to tell us the kind of archive it is
[00:49] <warnush> StepNjump: synaptic
[00:49] <Flannel> FarmCretin: also, if you don't want a file, but just to be able to scroll around, pipe it to less (ls -l | grep -v .nfo | less)
[00:49] <outbriber> linduxed: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/alarm-clock
[00:49] <danbhfive> Barqs: did your problem start then?
[00:49] <StepNjump> Sorry warnush
[00:49] <carandraug> palomer: yes. WIth nfts-3g
[00:49] <palomer> I just got a usb disk formatted with ntfs
[00:49] <StepNjump> Do you mean
[00:49] <linduxed> outbriber: will check
[00:49] <kcman> jrib looks like it is a rar file type...
[00:49] <palomer> whats ntfs-3g?
[00:49] <jrib> !rar > kcman
[00:50] <StepNjump> get-apt install synaptic
[00:50] <warnush> palomer: a ntfs read/write plugin for linux
[00:50] <StepNjump> ?
[00:50] <drkguy> WTF
[00:50] <cyphase> linduxed: here's the PPA: https://launchpad.net/~alarm-clock/+archive
[00:50] <student> StepNjump: System > Administration > Synaptic
[00:50] <cyphase> linduxed: do you know how to use repositories?
[00:50] <warnush> StepNjump: no, run synaptic and find rsync
[00:50] <drkguy> The normal ubuntu kernel doesn't have ALSA
[00:50] <carandraug> palomer: it's the driver to mount ntfs partitions
[00:50] <drkguy> Why?
[00:50] <Barqs> danbhfive: I'm not sure, I had never tried to run an avi file before now. But is there a quick way to just swap xine as my default, and try mplayer out?
[00:50] <StepNjump> oh ok thank you Warnush
[00:50] <palomer> but ntfs is not case sensitive, right?
[00:50] <StepNjump> I will try that. I will et you know
[00:50] <StepNjump> in a few secs
[00:50] <Violetbass> why does the root tool for deamons giving a authfail?
[00:50] <warnush> palomer: whats your point ?
[00:51] <palomer> warnush, just wondering
[00:51] <palomer> if I should keep my usb disk as ntfs
[00:51] <palomer> or format it as win95
[00:51] <palomer> dos32
[00:51] <warnush> palomer: you mean fat32?
[00:51] <danbhfive> Barqs: I dunno, sorry.  Maybe you could try this command, exactly:    sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop^
[00:51] <student> palomer: dont use the enter key as punctuation
[00:51] <carandraug> palomer: I don't think it matters to the filesystem. It matters to the OS and the Linux is case sensitive
[00:51] <Barqs> danbhfive: will do.
[00:52] <warnush> where the kernel source tree is (or what the synpatic package is) ?
[00:52] <carandraug> palomer: linux handles ntfs just fine now. You would have problems 2 years ago but not now.
[00:52] <unop> warnush, sudo aptitude install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[00:52] <warnush> unop: ok, so i have that installed
[00:52] <student> carandraug: i dont know about that.  ive had problems copying files named foo and Foo to my FAT322 ipod from ext3 on linux before.  it asks if i want to overwrite the file
[00:53] <warnush> unop: but i cannot find it via find in the cli
[00:53] <unop> warnush, ls -ld /usr/src/
[00:53] <cyphase> linduxed: how're you doing?
[00:53] <unop> warnush, err.  ls -ld /usr/src/*
[00:54] <carandraug> student: really? hmm, maybe you're true. I've always thought it was dependent on the OS
[00:54] <warnush> unop: so if i am manually installing the nvidia driver, i can tell it /usr/src and it will work, or do you think i need to tell it a sub-dir under that?
[00:54] <carandraug> palomer: seem sI was wrong. According to student filesystem is cased sensitive. If that's the case, ntfs will be case-sensitive
[00:55] <[SCKESLUNA]> does anyone know how to make a dr. pepper and a pepsi like enfused drink
[00:55] <Flannel> student: FAT is special... or more specifically, 8.3 filenames were special.
[00:55] <unop> warnush, hmm, you could use the envyng tool to make your life a little easier
[00:55] <nutricycle> is there any way to get rhythm box to play files i double click on instead of adding them to the playlist?
[00:55] <warnush> [SCKESLUNA]: no
[00:55] <Flannel> [SCKESLUNA]: please ask in #ubuntu-offtopic
[00:56] <LA_Mike_FA> i have a question about installing ubuntu server 8.0.3
[00:56] <student> Flannel: so copying foo and FOO to an ntfs partition would work without problems you think?
[00:56] <warnush> LA_Mike_FA: shoot
[00:56] <unop> warnush, depending on what the driver install wants .. the directory it wants is probably   /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[00:57] <LA_Mike_FA> i get an error code and i looked it up and it means the spindle number is too high what should i do?
[00:57] <Flannel> student: I believe so, but then if you boot to windows, you'll have issues.
[00:57] <linduxed> outbriber: thx it really helped
[00:57] <Flannel> student: There's one way to find out :)
[00:57] <warnush> unop:  ironic - b/c that dir/file is not there
[00:57] <warnush> unop: nm - i dumb
[00:58] <unop> warnush, which probably means the linux-headers package was not installed properly
[00:58] <warnush> unop: im dump, i was already in that directory
[00:58] <warnush> unop: thanks for the help
[00:58] <unop> heh
[00:58] <unop> np
[00:58] <warnush> unop: crossing fingers
[00:59] <student> Flannel: the only problem is, i swore off windows for my personal machines :-)
[00:59] <outbriber> linduxed: did you get cyphase's link?
[00:59] <LA_Mike_FA> ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
[00:59] <waynew> hi, could someone tell me how to limit permissions of a particular user (without having to edit permissions of every file on my system)
[00:59] <Flannel> LA_Mike_FA: please don't do that.
[00:59] <[SCKESLUNA]> this is more of a vista question but is there another font that Vista uses primarily other than Segoe UI
[01:00] <LA_Mike_FA> ok sorry
[01:00] <Flannel> [SCKESLUNA]: ##windows
[01:00] <LA_Mike_FA> i just am waiting for a response
[01:00] <Flannel> waynew: What are you trying to limit them to?
[01:00] <waynew> specifically I'm trying to give a particular user no read access to any directory other than his home dir
[01:00] <[SCKESLUNA]> ....nevermind
[01:00] <unop> waynew, that's pretty impossible
[01:00] <DOT3CH> can somebody help me install a splash upgrade that i downloaded
[01:00] <DOT3CH> not sure where to drag the package after its extracted
[01:01] <Flannel> !usplash | DOT3CH
[01:01] <Flannel> DOT3CH: that wiki page walks you through it
[01:01] <Dewente> i want to install flash in ubuntu 64bit !!!!!
[01:01] <DOT3CH> Flannel: ive already seen that
[01:01] <waynew> unop: I thought it used to be in one of the gui menus in prior versions of ubuntu
[01:01] <DOT3CH> Flannel: theirs a muuuch easier way
[01:01] <qr> waynew: you might be able do that with acl's ... google setfacl
[01:01] <jrib> Dewente: visit http://badgerbadgerbadger.com/ and click on the yellow bar at the top
[01:01] <DOT3CH> Flannel: where you just drag the stuff right in its spot
[01:01] <waynew> setfacl? lemme give it a look
[01:02] <unop> waynew, i highly doubt it .. if a user was unable to read into any other directories or files other than those in his own home directory -- he wouldn't even be able to log on
[01:02] <Flannel> DOT3CH: alright, well, that way works fine.    As long as you have the -updates repository enabled, flash will install fine.  Yes, even on 64bit
[01:04] <unop> waynew, some user processes need to read/write to /tmp
[01:04] <VipOrX> dewente: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree && sudo apt-get install libflashsupport
[01:04] <seba> its is the channel superdistro
[01:04] <[SCKESLUNA]> main icons on the desktop, anyone know how
[01:04] <unop> waynew, why do you want to do this? aren't the defaults enough?
[01:04] <Dewente> adobe company doesn't have flash for 64bit
[01:04] <waynew> unop: I suppose I should clarify, I'm just creating a dir for an ftp user
[01:04] <jrib> Dewente: ubuntu sets up nspluginwrapper automatically...
[01:04] <VipOrX> dewente: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree && sudo apt-get install libflashsupport
[01:05] <carandraug> [SCKESLUNA]: what do you want to do with them?
[01:05] <waynew> I just don't want that user to be able to have much access
[01:05] <[SCKESLUNA]> click on them to save time
[01:05] <ivx> hello, I'm having a problem with permission. I'm trying to share a folder and it would all be working except when someone makes a file it is read only for the group, and read and write for the owner. how can i share a folder so the whole group can read and write to it
[01:05] <Dewente> VipOrx, i will do it now
[01:06] <seba> how can I enter to a channel of ubuntu in spanish?
[01:06] <carandraug> [SCKESLUNA]: I don't get what you want? Shortcuts to applications in the desktop? Change icon of folders in the desktop? Something else?
[01:06] <waynew> ivx: chmod g+rw I believe
[01:06] <jrib> seba: /join #ubuntu-es
[01:06] <Dewente> sudo apt-get install libflashsupport   dont work
[01:06] <LA_Mike_FA> bye
[01:06] <unop> waynew, make sure the ftp user's shell is /bin/nologin or /bin/false .. should be ok
[01:06] <jrib> Dewente: you don't need it
[01:06] <seba> thank you
[01:06] <[SCKESLUNA]> oh, whoops, i said the question totally wrong, i meant, does anyone know how to put the main icons on the desktop
[01:06] <waynew> unop: ok, thanks
[01:06] <VipOrX> Dewente:  try flash now at youtube
[01:06] <ivx> waynew, but then when someone creates a new file that file is read only for the group
[01:07] <waynew> ivx: I'm fairly certain that
[01:07] <Dewente> dont work !!
[01:07] <carandraug> [SCKESLUNA]: could you please give me your definition of main icons?
[01:07] <waynew> ivx: is a problem with the user actually creating the file
[01:07] <unop> ivx, do you create files using nautilus?
[01:07] <Flannel> ivx: you need to change your default umask
[01:07] <[SCKESLUNA]> filesystem, network, home folder
[01:07] <VipOrX> you closed firefox and went to youtube?    does about:plugins   in firefox show flash?
[01:07] <ivx> unop, yes i'm testing it right clicking and create file
[01:07] <Dewente> jrib, tell me again let me try you option
[01:07] <Omoikane_> okay, what is the Keyboard shortcut to load a cmd line?
[01:07] <carandraug> [SCKESLUNA]: it should be there by default. If not run gconf-editor in the terminal
[01:08] <jsn> Is there any way to find out where, in "make menuconfig", I can find a particular option... given its option name?
[01:08] <Flannel> [SCKESLUNA]: start gconf-editor, and go to nautilus > desktop, and theres a whole bunch of checkboxes for you
[01:08] <unop> Flannel, there is a bug in gio presently where it doesn't obey the umask  .. so anything that uses gio has a problem
[01:08] <waynew> Omoikane_: do you mean the terminal?
[01:08] <jsn> CONFIG_IWLCORE to be specific
[01:08] <Omoikane_> yes
[01:08] <jrib> Dewente: no, what VipOrX said will do the same thing.  Let him troubleshoot that.  In addition to what VipOrX asked also pastebin the output of this command: apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree
[01:08] <jrib> s/him/us
[01:08] <waynew> Omoikane_: it's not set by default in latest versions, but you can go to system>preferences>keyboard shortcuts, IIRC
[01:09] <nutricycle> does anyone know which is the better iso mounter?
[01:09] <Dewente> apt-cache policy flashplugin-nonfree
[01:09] <jrib> nutricycle: mount
[01:09] <ivx> unop, I tried what you said to do before, but i'm having a sharing problem, would you suggest using NFS to share files?
[01:09] <jrib> Dewente: write that in a terminal and then paste the output onto paste.ubuntu.com.  Then give us the url
[01:09] <ivx> unop for just one computer?
[01:09] <waynew> Omoikane_: yep, it's in the "Desktop" section - Run a terminal - it's the last option
[01:09] <nutricycle> jrib, does it have a gui?
[01:10] <Dewente> ok
[01:10] <jrib> nutricycle: there are some nautilus scripts somewhere.  I'm not aware of their names offhand though
[01:10] <Omoikane_> waynew I need to load compiz because it has crashed and so I can't browse without loading it. So I just need to do compiz --replace
[01:10] <MarkJones> Hello could anyone help me with getting my new Nvidia GeForce 6200 AGP card working with Ubuntu Hardy 8.04.1 and compiz enabled? My system freezes with it enabled.Worked fine with my other geforce mx400 card.Please anyone?
[01:10] <unop> ivx, no NFS is overkill -- the problem is not how you have setup the share .. just the way nautilus creates files, it does not obey the umask .. so it's hard to create files/directories with the right permissions
[01:11] <MarkJones> Ubuntu works fine without compiz turned on however.
[01:11] <waynew> if alt+f2 brings up the run dialog, Omoikane_, you can check the option run in terminal
[01:11] <carandraug> [SCKESLUNA]: once you start gconf-editor in the terminal, go to "apps > nautilus > desktop" and tick the option volumes
[01:11] <damasceno>
[01:11] <ivx> unop, but if i was creating a file with lets say gimp would that be the correct permissions? i set the folder to g+s
[01:11] <damasceno> Do I need an access router for a client, I have the IP, LOGIN, and PASSWORD, as I do that
[01:11] <waynew> Omoikane_: or just type in xterm or whatever terminal you have installed
[01:11] <unop> ivx,  you could modify the umask in /etc/profile to  umask 002  .. that will ensure nautilus creates file properly .. but it will still struggle with directories
[01:11] <Dewente> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu.com/41395/
[01:11] <VipOrX> Dewente:   do you have universe enabled?
[01:12] <unop> ivx, yea, i'm not sure .. but i am pretty sure that even gimp is affected by this bug
[01:12] <unop> s/yea//
[01:12] <VipOrX> Dewente:   nevermind, I see your on Gutsy, libflashsupport is only for hardy pulseaudio issue
[01:13] <VipOrX> Dewente:  open firefox and in the URL bar type about:plugins
[01:13] <ivx> unop so how fast do they usually fix bugs?
[01:13] <Dewente> ok
[01:13] <jrib> Dewente: make sure you have restarted firefox first
[01:13] <damasceno> Do I need an access router for a client, I have the IP, LOGIN, and PASSWORD, as I do that?
[01:14] <Dewente> VipOrX, ok done
[01:14] <unop> ivx, well, hard to say -- depends on the priority assigned to bugs .. and this one is classified as a 'low priority' one .. there's no telling, a couple of weeks perhaps
[01:14] <jsn> Is there any way to find out where, in "make menuconfig", I can find a particular option... given its option name? CONFIG_IWLCORE to be specific
[01:14] <Dewente> VipOrX, no plugins are installed
[01:15] <ivx> unop, oh, well thanks for your help
[01:15] <qr> can I set a umask for a paritcular directory? I.e. If I have /home/foo using the default umask, can I set a different umask that will apply to files created in /home/foo/bar (and subdirectories, such as /home/foo/bar/hats , etc)?
[01:15] <MarkJones> Man I wish someone could help me.
[01:15] <VipOrX> Dewente:  how did you install firefox?
[01:15] <unop> ivx, this might be a workaround in the time being .. see the last post here. http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-40617.html
[01:15] <jrib> !helpme > MarkJones
[01:16] <Dewente> i did by the terminal
[01:16] <nutricycle> has anyoine used gisomount?
[01:16] <OmgItsAshark> I am running dual monitors
[01:16] <OmgItsAshark> how can i keep one desktop on one monitor and the other on the other
[01:16] <jimmio> what do I do to talk to the bot in private instead of filling the channel with stuff?
[01:16] <unop> qr, no .. the umask is a global thing
[01:17] <ivx> unop, thanks
[01:17] <jrib> jimmio: /msg ubot5 foobar
[01:17] <OmgItsAshark> so i can play games on one screen and still pidgin and the internet on the other
[01:17] <MarkJones> I have used gisomount.But in ubuntu its almost not needed as the File Roller can open ISOs out of the box.
[01:17] <VipOrX> Dewente:  remove and purge firefox and flashplugin-nonfree  , then reinstall firefox using apt-get and flashplugin-nonfree using apt-get
[01:17] <VipOrX> Dewente:  before re-installing, run: apt-get update
[01:18] <sahil> is anyone familiar with gnewsense?
[01:18] <Dewente> ok let me check
[01:18] <Dewente> i have 64bit .. it's not problem ?
[01:18] <jrib> sahil: #gnewsense is :)
[01:19] <qr> unop: I see. Is there any way to emulate this behaviour? I'd like to have a folder where all files created in that folder are 0664 ... which is I guess a bit different then setting the umask, now that I think it through.
[01:19] <icedevil> can someone help
[01:19] <jrib> icedevil: best to just ask the channel your question
[01:19] <VipOrX> jrib might be best to answer that, I've only used 64 bit on hardy
[01:19] <unop> qr, perhaps so - with ACLs
[01:19] <MarkJones> nutricycle did you get the IM?
[01:19] <markowen> sss
[01:19] <qr> unop: ok, I'll look into that then. Thanks.
[01:20] <icedevil> i have plugged in in the external harddrive and ubuntu doesn't recognise it.
[01:20] <icedevil> it was working before
[01:20] <icedevil> but became unplugged
[01:20] <mike-ekim> anybody....
[01:20] <mike-ekim> mp3
[01:20] <mike-ekim> please
[01:20] <icedevil> when i connected it again, it didn't recognise i
[01:20] <jrib> !mp3 > mike-ekim
[01:20] <icedevil> it*
[01:20] <mike-ekim> didnt get one
[01:20] <danbhfive> mike-ekim: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[01:20] <markowen> a
[01:20] <mike-ekim> i did that one
[01:21] <jrib> Dewente: it's not a problem.  Does it still not work after what VipOrX suggested?
[01:21] <danbhfive> !medibuntu > mike-ekim
[01:21] <unop> qr, that won't really change the unix permissions to 664 .. but you can have some access control that emulates the unix permissions of 664
[01:21] <jrib> mike-ekim: what happens when you double click on an mp3?
[01:21] <Dewente> jrib, i am trying let me a min
[01:21] <mike-ekim> opens in rhythmbox
[01:21] <icedevil> jrib, do you have a solution?
[01:21] <mike-ekim> and doesnt play or move nothing
[01:22] <jrib> icedevil: check dmesg
[01:22] <sudobash> I need some help seriously... I am trying to get PXE working so I can do a netboot from two laptops and I have been trying to follow a walk through but I found a better one on Ubuntu forums but I think it is too late to do one because I have already set up DHCP3-Server and have it configured the only real problem is choosing which TFTP Daemon to use and how to get it working with PXE and the current DHCPD settings I have configured
[01:22] <sudobash> ....
[01:22] <jrib> mike-ekim: what if you open it in totem?
[01:22] <qr> unop: hmm, I see.  I'd prefer to be able to force permissions (or at least force certain bits to be set) but I may be willing to settle for emulating it depending on how it's done.
[01:22] <icedevil> jrib, what's dmesg?
[01:22] <jrib> icedevil: a command
[01:22] <geonerd> greetings!
[01:22] <mike-ekim> dont have totem
[01:23] <icedevil> i'm a new user to ubuntu...could you explain it a little please?
[01:23] <jrib> mike-ekim: what distro are you using?
[01:23] <Dewente> DONT WORK
[01:23] <mike-ekim> oh i do
[01:23] <mike-ekim> ubuntu 8
[01:23] <jrib> icedevil: type 'dmesg | tail' in a shell
[01:23] <mike-ekim> its there
[01:23] <mike-ekim> but it is not playing
[01:23] <FloodBot3> mike-ekim: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:23] <geonerd> does anyone use wicd for wireless network management?
[01:23] <jrib> !enter | mike-ekim
[01:23] <unop> qr, the only solution (which is a hack really) is to have some sort of cronjob/script poll the directory every so often and change permissions
[01:23] <sudobash> the ubuntu forum walkthrough is saying use dnsmasq but i have DHCP3-Server up and running correctly....
[01:23] <VipOrX> Dewente, see private message
[01:24] <sudobash> but I cant get any TFTP to work
[01:24] <unop> qr, which is really inefficient for large directories
[01:24] <jrib> unop, qr: I think your ACL suggestion would work
[01:24] <unop> jrib, it works to emulate the unix permissions .. but doesn't really change the permissions - which is what he is after
[01:24] <jrib> !who | Dewente
[01:25] <icedevil> jrib,  i've typed it inand have a list of logs, but what do i do now?
[01:25] <jrib> unop: but the user won't be able to access the files anyway.  What's the difference?
[01:25] <qr> unop: yes indeed it would be.  I'll keep looking and see what I come up with.
[01:25] <jrib> icedevil: you look for something interesting after you plug in your drive
[01:26] <unop> jrib, well, for one .. acls only work if the volume is mounted with the acl option .. so he might have some removable media he's worried about .. i dunno
[01:26] <geonerd> any wicd users here who can help me out?

[01:27] <qr> duiu: Xwin32 is not too bad
[01:28] <jrib> unop: that's true
[01:28] <pudland> how can i fix MBR?
[01:28] <unop> duiu, vnc would be a better option
[01:28] <hubar> Can anyone see cnn's windows media player stream now?
[01:28] <adac> duiu: I like Xming a lot.
[01:28] <mike-ekim> this is a pain, really. Everytime I set up ubuntu I have to spend hours fixing these multimedia issues
[01:28] <jrib> pudland: you want to restore the windows bootloader?
[01:28] <mike-ekim> and every new release its a different rig
[01:28] <danbhfive> mike-ekim: totem has an autoinstaller now
[01:28] <jrib> mike-ekim: you really should not need to do anything more than install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[01:29] <pudland> jrib: i pulled out prim IDE HD and now comp stops at verifying DMI pool when trying to boot from sata.
[01:29] <jrib> mike-ekim: try a different mp3 if you believe you've successfully installed the codecs
[01:30] <mike-ekim> jrib: ive tried my whole library, it is even causing ubuntu to crash
[01:30] <davf> Can't get xubuntu to install. hangs loading libc6-deb
[01:30] <jrib> pudland: do you just want to reinstall grub?
[01:30] <mike-ekim> and I have already set up ubuntu-restricted-drivers, how can apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-drivers result in an inproper installation.. ?
[01:30] <jrib> mike-ekim: does the progress bar move?  does it give you an error?
[01:30] <davf> From what I've read this is a dma issue? can't figure out how to enable dma. Using alternate iso
[01:30] <mike-ekim> nope
[01:30] <ScheissDroge1>  davf:checked media for defects ?
[01:30] <jrib> mike-ekim: I asked two questions...
[01:30] <davf> yes, no defects
[01:30] <mike-ekim> not error, no progress bar, amarok attempts to play (jumps to 1 sec) then stops as usual
[01:30] <pudland> jrib: thats just it. I dont know if its mbr or grub
[01:31] <jrib> mike-ekim: is sound working?
[01:31] <ScheissDroge1>  davf:kinda PC ? alternate installer ?
[01:31] <Mauricio> alguien habla español ?
[01:31] <mike-ekim> Yes
[01:31] <amirman> anyone know anything about opening an app in a new x server (alt+f7)
[01:31] <mike-ekim> sound works perfectly fine, there is no progression in the media player, it is not being played
[01:31] <jrib> pudland: I don't know.  I can give you the instructions for restoring grub and you can try it I guess
[01:31] <davf> laptop toshiba satellite old one
[01:31] <jrib> !grub > pudland
[01:31] <Mauricio> SOMEBODY SPEAK SPANISH ?

[01:32] <unop> amirman, do you want to be able to interact with the app ?
[01:32] <Mauricio> I'm Banned of ubuntu-es :(
[01:32] <davf> ScheissDrogel haven't tried live. Have to d/l it.
[01:32] <davf> but not much mem
[01:32] <Mauricio> !es
[01:32] <davf> ScheissDrogel
[01:32] <amirman> unop: yeah definitely, i want to be able to switch between the app and my desktop with alt+f7 alt+f6
[01:33] <davf> I'll d/l live and try it and come back later. - ScheissDrogel

[01:36] <Flannel> Dietrich: Avant has its own config thing.
[01:36] <MikeSeth> config thing, yo
[01:37] <Dietrich> @Flannel yeah, i found that but I can't seem to spot a screen placement setting
[01:37] <Dietrich> is there an advanced mode that I'm missing?
[01:37] <Flannel> Dietrich: do you know one exists?  You should ask the AWN people
[01:37] <Dietrich> Sorry, just going off https://answers.launchpad.net/awn/+question/16259

[01:42] <jrib> Dewente: did you pastebin what I asked?
[01:42] <Dewente> not
[01:42] <jrib> mike-ekim: if you start totem from a shell, do you get any interesting output?

[01:42] <platyhelminth_> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvsboPUjrGc
[01:42] <VipOrX> jrib:  I had Dewente remove / purge firefox and flashplugin-nonfree, remove his .mozilla dir, reinstall firefox/flash
[01:42] <jrib> platyhelminth_: we like to keep this channel dedicated to ubuntu support only since it is so busy.  Mind moving your discussion over to #ubuntu-offtopic?
[01:42] <VipOrX> he has the plugin in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
[01:43] <mike-ekim> nope
[01:43] <coolpinata> hmm can anyone help me find out why my /home only has 170kb available
[01:43] <Dewente> jrib. done
[01:43] <jrib> VipOrX: and about:plugins?
[01:43] <VipOrX> jrib:  he says nothing
[01:43] <jrib> Dewente: but we need the url :)
[01:44] <jrib> coolpinata: applications -> accessories -> disk usage analyzer
[01:44] <Dewente> paste ?
[01:44] <ScheissDroge1> !paste
[01:44] <hubar> fuck, I hate those microsoft nazi's.

[01:50] <mstef> anyway to get HDMI output to work under 7.10 w/ an integrated non-nvidia graphics card (dell xps m1330)???
[01:51] <emma> Have any of you happened to have found a good way to stream the Democrat Convention in Ubuntu?
[01:51] <sven_oostenbrink> Why is "sudo dd if=/dev/random of=/media/truecrypt1/urandomtest3 bs=2K count=150000" not doing anything but writing a file of like 300 bytes?
[01:51] <emma> The best I've found is CSPAN which works but the video is choppy.
[01:51] <arang> hey guys anyone that could give me a hand with an nvidia 9600GT video card? i got it working i just have some questions about the Core clock
[01:51] <jrib> emma: it's a sick joke that dncc is using silverlight
[01:52] <emma> Yeah it seems pretty annoying to me.
[01:52] <emma> Perhaps the republicans will prove to be more friendly to open source.
[01:52] <Overand> Can I use PPTP over a PPP link?  (Via a celular 'modem')
[01:54] <Gnea> arang: the peopl in #nvidia could probably answer them better

[01:54] <jrib> hubar: eh?
[01:54] <hubar>  xbxb<EMAIL_ADDRESS>has joined #ubuntu
 emma: it's a sick joke that dncc is using silverlight
[01:55] <hubar> That is why I cursed at them at the beginning. :)
[01:55] <jrib> hubar: okay, you're forgiven :)  Was just letting you know of the rules, not really yelling so much
[01:55] <arang> Gnea: i'm in there too but no answer so far
[01:56] <mbrigdan> is there a way I can ensure a certain drive always mounts with the same name?
[01:56] <hubar> jrib: I wish moonlight works now though :(
[01:56] <unop> !fstab > mbrigdan
[01:56] <jrib> mbrigdan: if you give the drive a label, that's probably the easiest way.  You could also explicitly add it to your fstab using UUID
[01:56] <klasikahl> does anyone here have any experience with ocfs2 and more than two nodes?  I need to know if it's possible (and what method to use) for ~20 nodes
[01:57] <klasikahl> please :) i really hate gfs+gnbd

[01:57] <unop> mbrigdan, e2label
[01:58] <dunn> BOFH80 you here? got some follow up on yesterdays tribulations :)
[01:58] <Wisconsinliberta> why so many packages broken in 8.04?  not ready yet?
[01:59] <unop> Wisconsinliberta, 8.04 or 8.10 ?
[01:59] <dunn357> or anyoe here from yesterday? djhash?
[01:59] <jrib> Wisconsinliberta: be more specific.  8.04 is a stable release
[01:59] <VipOrX> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TitleIndex   needs to be in the chan topic.   This is a WONDERFUL page for 90% of the questions in here
[01:59] <Wisconsinliberta> 8.04, lots of packages fail to install due to dependencies it cannot install (using add/remove)
[01:59] <bofh80> dunn357, cool. uh, give me a brief reminder, mighta been you i was trying to remember :P
[02:00] <dunn357> yeah, light on router wouldnt come on
[02:00]  * gaintsura wanders in, bashes his head on the desk "help?"
[02:00] <dunn357> and on computer
[02:00] <dunn357> no internet on 8.04
[02:00] <bofh80> dunn357, yeah that was it :P
[02:00] <dunn357> :D
[02:00] <dunn357> ok, so i installed vista and wiped the HD of ubuntu
[02:00] <bofh80> dunn357, so what's been happening then
[02:00] <dunn357> and internet worked just fine
[02:00] <bofh80> dunn357, ouch really. how very very strange
[02:00] <dunn357> then, i put in ubuntu and ran it as LiveCD, internet is working just fine!
[02:00] <dunn357> have yet to reinstall tho
[02:00] <bofh80> dunn357, oh dear
[02:01] <dunn357> got no idea why it wouldnt work yesterday tho
[02:01] <unop> Wisconsinliberta, you probably don't have all the ubuntu repositories enabled.
[02:01] <bofh80> dunn357, well hopefully a clean install might sort it. realtek network cards, should just work, you've got the bog standard shipped by the thousand version
[02:01] <gaintsura> and again, I'm back, same issue, no resolve. I've been trying for 3 days now to get my video to work properly. compiz and its effects run fine, video is a bit choppy, full screen video is nothing, a flicker and return back to window mode. glxinfo says direct rendering: no, and fglrxinfo says Render is Mesa Indirect Rendering, I've tried quite literally almost everything I can think of, can anyone help me out?
[02:02] <dunn357> bofh80, the fact that the live session is working with internet fills me with hope, i might go for a dual boot configuration tho
[02:03] <mstef> if i split my disk into two partitions and dual boot xp..would i be able to later remove the xp partition and give the space back to the ubuntu partition..or vica versa?
[02:03] <bofh80> dunn357, heheheh. that's entirely your choice, windows first, then ubuntu. so your doing it in the right order :)
[02:03] <Sixofour|Sleep> how do i change video drivers?
[02:03] <cyphase> dunn357: if you want, you can install ubuntu from inside windows
[02:03] <Xang> mstef: Yes.
[02:03] <gaintsura> mstef: it will be quite a pain, but yes
[02:03] <dunn357> cyphase, is that a recommended approach?
[02:03] <Gorogoth> ok
[02:03] <mstef> Xang, thanks...way too many problems with ubuntu 7 on this laptop
[02:03] <Gorogoth> hello
[02:03] <mstef> id rather put it in virtualbox under xp
[02:03] <mstef> sadly
[02:03] <cyphase> dunn357: yes, it's on the official CD
[02:03] <cyphase> dunn357: well..
[02:03] <fistandandelus> hi, can anyone help? Im haing trouble with some weird,  blocky diagonal display everytime i try to run anything thats graphically intensive, now ive narrowed it down to a monitor problem, but as of now im utterly stumped
[02:03] <nutricycle> dunn357, the new wubi installer is great!  mount the ubuntu iso in windows and it takes only 5 mins to install
[02:04] <SeligArk1n> Hey how can i disable 'beagle' or whatever came with the newest update?
[02:04] <gaintsura> mstef: then do that, actually windows runs better in vbox than on proprietary hardware =)
[02:04] <dunn357> nutricyle, ah i see!
[02:04] <cyphase> dunn357: i don't know if it's "recommended". it works, and it's supported officially. it may be a *little* slower
[02:04] <SeligArk1n> i dont really need anything to find files for me (most of the stuff i have is stored elsewhere
[02:04] <mstef> gaintsura, yes it does..but the hardware problems are being caused by ubuntu..so id rather boot xp normally and put ubuntu in vbox
[02:04] <gaintsura> how sad
[02:05] <gaintsura> mstef: what hardware problems?
[02:05] <cyphase> dunn357: i've only tried on one computer (not mine), which only has 221MB of memory
[02:05] <mstef> gaintsura, yea it is..i bought this laptop solely for ubuntu
[02:05] <SeligArk1n> is 'killall trackerd' enough or do i need to do more?
[02:05] <dunn357> cyphase, ok i see, but im so full of optimism now (and ive decided to scrap my old windows box so the soon to be ubuntu box will get some new parts)
[02:05] <darkangel88> Hi there, need some help about some crashing after resuming an suspend session.. anyone expert in this field ?
[02:05] <mstef> gaintsura, no HDMI out, horrible WIFI support, hibernate works 70% of the time, standby crashes the system..some battery issues..etc
[02:05] <mstef> dell xps m1330
[02:06] <Kai_wp2> How can I read/write to Wubi's "root.disk" file?
[02:06] <darkangel88> having a problem with event/0 crashing.. anyone knows what event/0 is ?
[02:06] <Kai_wp2> I want to replace my xorg.conf file with a backup
[02:06] <gaintsura> mstef: interesting, the wifi bit can be taken care of, hibernate/suspend does the same thing to me, and as for HDMI.. I dunno
[02:06] <Gorogoth> can someone help me i have unbuntu on a old laptop and everytime i use the browser it stop working
[02:06] <Kai_wp2> I mean, I need to replace my xorg.conf file with a backup. I was trying to do this from Windows, but I only have a program that can read the Wubi disk image.
[02:07] <Kai_wp2> I can't write to it.
[02:07] <cyphase> Gorogoth: the browser stops working, or ubuntu
[02:07] <bastid_raZor> Kai_wp2; do that while running ubuntu.. all you need to do is restart x after you've changed it
[02:07] <sudobash> AHHHH! I got PXE working... I nuked DHCP3 and just installed DNSMASQ and it is working right now...
[02:07] <darkangel88> anyone knows what "events/0" is ??
[02:07] <sudobash> went by the ubuntu link
[02:07] <slacker_> can anyone help me
[02:08] <sudobash> I know i was close with the DHCP3-Server and TFTPD
[02:08] <slacker_> I am getting a BusyBox error while installing Kubuntu 8.04
[02:08] <gaintsura> mstef: what wifi card is in there?
[02:08] <slacker_> I am getting a BusyBox error while installing Kubuntu 8.04 64bit
[02:08] <darkangel88> anyone knows what "events/0" is ??
[02:09] <slacker_> I am getting a BusyBox error while installing Kubuntu 8.04 64bit please help =/
[02:09] <gaintsura> slacker_: don't repeat, ask and wait =)
[02:09] <SeligArk1n> Anyone? My laptop keeps locking up using the CPUY alot, i think it is something indexing my files
[02:09] <slacker_> lol sorry
[02:09] <Dr_willis> slacker_,  for a start. verify the cd/iso md5's are correct.
[02:10] <Barqs> Is it better to get a 64bit ubuntu version or 32bit if you're a mediocre linux user?
[02:10] <lextori> I am trying to install ubuntu on my new PC, and the live CD(both normal and alternate version) hang on boot
[02:10] <slacker_> Dr_willis: stupid question, but how do I do that?
[02:10] <amirman> i've been trying to use xinit to open an application on a separate xserver that i could access with ctrl+alt+f8 but i run into some errors http://paste.ubuntu.com/41408/ - i'm thinking that it might have something to do something i discovered a few weeks ago, the authorization for x is different on ubuntu, the xauth file is created at boot and stored in /tmp so scripting something with xauth is impossible since the key or whatever is changed at each boot, i've
[02:10] <Dr_willis> Barqs,  i would stick with the 32bit
[02:10] <Dr_willis> !md5
[02:10] <cyphase> Barqs: 32-bit
[02:10] <gaintsura> Barqs: user type doesn't matter, it depends on what you are doing because 64bit support is still lacking
[02:10] <pedro> can anyone tell me the difference between ubuntu, kubuntu and stuff?
[02:10] <IndyGunFreak> Barqs: i agree w/ Dr_willis .. stick w/ 32bit for right now.
[02:10] <Dr_willis> pedro,  kubutnu = ubuntu -gnome+kde
[02:10] <lextori> I have verified my ISO already
[02:10] <gaintsura> pedro: ubuntu is gnome based, kubuntu is kde based, edubuntu = educational ubuntu
[02:10] <cyphase> Barqs: 64-bit still has some issues (on windows as well)
[02:11] <ThOuGhtFuL> alguem do Brasil por aew???  (=
[02:11] <IndyGunFreak> Dr_willis: lol, that looked like an algebra equation
[02:11] <gaintsura> cyphase: any idea on when they will start working more on 64bit support? I feel like my system is being neglected =(
[02:11] <Barqs> Dr_willis, cyphase, gaintsura, IndyGunFreak: Okay, will do. I was wondering if it was worth it, but I'll wait until it becomes more developped. Thanks guys =p
[02:11] <gaintsura> IndyGunFreak: hey =)
[02:11] <darkangel88> anyone knows what "events/0" is ??
[02:11] <IndyGunFreak> gaintsura: ... hey..
[02:11] <slacker_> Dr_Willis: The 64 bit lacking support could that be my problem? As I can install the 32bit just fine.
[02:11] <IndyGunFreak> ?
[02:12] <Sixofour|Sleep> so i have an ATi Radeon X1300, right now..system is using Intel 386 for display drivers o.O..i am looking and the only radeon drivers are "ATi Radeon, Radeon 8500, Radeon (fbdev), Radeon (fglrx), Radeon (Vesa)...which should i use?

[02:13] <Doglino> someone can help me to configure boot with grub??
[02:13] <Sixofour|Sleep> configure what?
[02:13] <IndyGunFreak> ok
[02:13] <gaintsura> Sixofour|Sleep: you'll have to configure xorg for the driver
[02:13] <Doglino> i have two hds
[02:13] <Sixofour|Sleep> does it matter that i am using KDE3.5? [kubuntu channel hasn't answered]
[02:13] <gaintsura> Sixofour|Sleep: or, you could get the AMD ATI proprietary driver which comes with catalyst
[02:14] <Sixofour|Sleep> how do i get the proprietary?
[02:14] <gaintsura> Sixofour|Sleep: hold
[02:14] <cyphase> gaintsura: well, some of the issues are due to proprietary programs, e.g. Flash. the rest of the issues are being worked on as far as i know
[02:14] <darkangel88> anyone knows what "events/0" process is ??  Related to the mouse, wifi card, video card.. ??  Please someone !

[02:15] <misteralexander> how do I change permissions for a drive? I insert my iPod, but it says (via GtkPod) I can't modify or update my iPod, because I don't have permission to. When I check properties, "Root" owns my iPod, NOT ME.  Argh!  Any help?
[02:15] <jesolato> Hello. I'm looking for potential Moderators of an up and coming forum. If you're interested, please pm me for more details. I'll be on standby. Thanks!
[02:16] <gaintsura> Sixofour|Sleep: follow that, install it, have fun
[02:16] <Finger> Honestly, I'm not sure what is all available for Linux
[02:16] <darkangel88> anyone knows what "events/0" process is ??  Related to the mouse, wifi card, video card.. ??  Please someone !
[02:16] <Sixofour|Sleep> finger..alot is avialbe for linux
[02:16] <IndyGunFreak> !patience | darkangel88
[02:16] <Finger> I've heard many mentions of an application called Wine but no idea what it is
[02:16] <Sixofour|Sleep> what do you want?
[02:16] <Doglino> if a hd is SATA, it's named as sd0 in menu.lst??
[02:16] <Sixofour|Sleep> sudo apt-get install wine
[02:16] <Sixofour|Sleep> and find out
[02:16] <IndyGunFreak> !wine | Finger
[02:16] <gaintsura> damn those ! commands
[02:17] <IndyGunFreak> Finger: just be advised its not 100%.. it works great w/ some programs, barely with quite a fwe, and not at all w/ a whole bunch
[02:17] <Sixofour|Sleep> huh?
[02:17] <gaintsura> I've been trying for 3 days now to get my video to work properly. compiz and its effects run fine, video is a bit choppy, full screen video is nothing, a flicker and return back to window mode. glxinfo says direct rendering: no, and fglrxinfo says Render is Mesa Indirect Rendering, I've tried quite literally almost everything I can think of, can anyone help me out? ATI X1200 fglrx drivers, glxinfo says direct rendering: no
[02:17] <Finger> See I just want to find and play with stuff for linux to see if I can make my move from Windows permanent
[02:17] <Sixofour|Sleep> wine works great with every program ive used
[02:17] <dee> whats  up in here?
[02:17] <misteralexander> Finger: there are about 1,000 "Platnium" rated programs for WINE, it works great for me.
[02:18] <misteralexander> how do I change permissions for a drive? I insert my iPod, but it says (via GtkPod) I can't modify or update my iPod, because I don't have permission to. When I check properties, "Root" owns my iPod, NOT ME.  Argh!  Any help?
[02:18] <dee> <new comer
[02:18] <IndyGunFreak> Sixofour|Sleep: well, there's plenty of programs it doesn't work.. i've certainly had less than 100% success w/ it.
[02:18] <Finger> anyplace I can go to find a top list of Linux apps or something?
[02:18] <Sixofour|Sleep> gaintsure did you jsut recommend drivers to me when you yourself don't know how to fix it?
[02:18] <gaintsura> Finger: theres a lot of programs that are similar to anything you can find on windows, I've not been able to find about 4 programs that I use frequently in windows for linux and thats it
[02:18] <gaintsura> Sixofour|Sleep: no, I'm having a completely different problem
[02:18] <Sixofour|Sleep> oh ok
[02:18] <Sixofour|Sleep> lol
[02:18] <IndyGunFreak> Finger: yeah, google "Linux Alternatives".. and you should get a site that will list windows programs, and their linux alternatives
[02:19] <darkangel88> is there any channels to get specific help on devices ??
[02:19] <gaintsura> Sixofour|Sleep: my problem is dealing with full screen video direct rendering
[02:19] <skarface> misteralexander: alt-f2, gksudo gtkpod
[02:19] <IndyGunFreak> darkangel88: try /join #linuxhelpwithspecificdevices
[02:19] <gaintsura> s/video direct/video & direct

[02:19] <IndyGunFreak> he asked..
[02:20] <misteralexander> skarface: I learn something new everyday . . . THANKS!
[02:20] <darkangel88> does the channel actually exist... ?
[02:20] <misteralexander> it worked.
[02:20] <IndyGunFreak> darkangel88: sure it does... as soon as you enter it.
[02:20] <darkangel88> I'm alone in there !
[02:20] <IndyGunFreak> maybe i mis-spelled it, let me double check
[02:20] <darkangel88> still on FreeNode ?
[02:20] <bastid_raZor> heh
[02:21] <IndyGunFreak> i wanna start an #ubuntu channel on coldfront
[02:21] <darkangel88> I did enter it but it's empty.. is the syntax right ?
[02:22] <IndyGunFreak> darkangel88: it should be.. wait a while, someone will prolly show up
[02:22] <darkangel88> allright thanks
[02:22] <darkangel88> I appreciate IndyGunFreak
[02:22] <bastid_raZor> you're the man IndyGunFreak
[02:22] <IndyGunFreak> bastid_raZor: lol..

[02:26] <Gigacore> Hi guys, I need a small help
[02:26] <Gigacore> I installed XAMPP in opt dir
[02:26] <Gigacore> and when I try to open phpMyAdmin from the localhost, it says permission denied and it requires me to make it writable
[02:27] <Gigacore> any home to make it writable ?
[02:27] <MeNice> How do i get sound on wine i have ubuntu 8.04 lts i think and wines lattest version but there is no sound for diablo 2
[02:27] <tarvid> what's the "official way of starting bind at boot time?
[02:28] <Kai_wp2> So it turns out I can't get into Ubuntu. I believe it's because I need to replace my xorg.conf file with a backup. How can I go about doing this without access to Ubuntu?
[02:28] <darkangel88> I can understand for level1 support.... google would help greatly... but I've been searching for answers without success..
[02:28] <darkangel88> so in my case, no, google does not help me
[02:28] <tarvid> Kai_wp2, restart in rescue mode
[02:28] <IndyGunFreak> darkangel88: what are you trying to do again?
[02:28] <gaintsura> tarvid: he's using ubuntu via wubi
[02:28] <dude7070> what are alternatives to Adobe Air ? Its lack of support for Arabic is forcing me to find another platform/framework
[02:28] <tarvid> cd /etc/X11
[02:29] <Kai_wp2> tarvid: Would that be more effective than trying to do it by editing Wubi's disk image in Windows?
[02:29] <darkangel88> does events/0 sounds familiar to you ?
[02:29] <IndyGunFreak> no
[02:29] <MeNice>  How do i get sound on wine i have ubuntu 8.04 lts i think and wines lattest version but there is no sound for diablo 2
[02:29] <MeNice>  How do i get sound on wine i have ubuntu 8.04 lts i think and wines lattest version but there is no sound for diablo 2
[02:29] <tarvid> Kai_wp2, have you tried Ctrl+Alt+F1?
[02:29] <darkangel88> the process events/0 in fact
[02:29] <IndyGunFreak> dunno darkangel88
[02:30] <darkangel88> k.. thanks anyway
[02:30] <IndyGunFreak> i thought you had an ipod problem
[02:30] <Gorogoth> ok
[02:30] <Kai_wp2> tarvid: Nope. Is that to start rescue mode?
[02:30] <tarvid> Kai_wp2, never used wubi but if you can get to /etc/X11
[02:30] <Gorogoth> how is everyone
[02:30] <tarvid> That is to switch to a shell window without GUI
[02:30] <darkangel88> So I guess the linuxhelpthing was all part of the fuckingoogleit.com stuff ?
[02:30] <IndyGunFreak> darkangel88: do you have an ipod problem?
[02:30] <Kai_wp2> tarvid: I found I software that reads the Wubi image, but won't let me write. So maybe I'll try "rescue mode". Is it just like the terminal?
[02:30] <darkangel88> nope
[02:31] <tarvid> With any luck you might see a login prompt\
[02:31] <IndyGunFreak> ok, i thought you had an ipod problem
[02:31] <tarvid> Yes
[02:31] <darkangel88> not me

[02:32] <Terralthra> and I have an atheros 5416 card

[02:32] <pike_> gunas: do a 'file *.bin' see what it is or do a head *.bin
[02:33] <Gorogoth> everytime i do to a site that has flash my browser closes
[02:33] <Terralthra> I modprobed ath_pci, but it isn't showing any interfaces under ifconfig
[02:33] <regeya> you're sure it's really an executable gunas?
[02:33] <regeya> what pike_ said
[02:33] <regeya> Gorogoth: unfortunately, support for flash in linux is terrible
[02:33] <regeya> Gorogoth: I even have that problem under OS X, though, so we're not alone
[02:33] <lolufail> does the standard mkinitramfs command detect a xfs over lvm over dm-crypt over md-raid setup?
[02:33] <tarvid> Flash works, I hate it but it works
[02:34] <tarvid> Firefox should be as reliable
[02:34] <regeya> cripes lolufail
[02:34] <Gorogoth> what can i do for now regeya
[02:34] <tarvid> but before despair create another user and see if life improves running firefox as that user
[02:34] <drhe|skt> how can i kill Amarok audio player? i dont see it. but i cant load it. so i figure it might still be open, just crash. any way to kill it.?????

[02:34] <tarvid> killall amarok
[02:34] <lolufail> killall amarokapp -.-
[02:35] <pike_> gunas: so she's a binary file you should be able to ./*.bin it..
[02:35] <regeya> maybe someone else has a suggestion, Gorogoth?  I don't know; I don't have my browser crash but memory and cpu usage is through the roof for me :-/
[02:35] <nutricycle> i cant believe how far ubuntu has come, its so easy now

[02:36] <Wisconsinliberta> anyone had luck recently with virtualbox free on 8.04?  package fails for me
[02:36] <tarvid> Gorogoth, start firefox from a terminal window and see what error messages happen

[02:41] <Threethan> I'm having a problem with getting ubuntu to recognize my wireless card, or my router, or heck, I don't know. It just won't connect to the internet, and I've tried that 'Documentation Site' six time. No luck.
[02:41] <Gorogoth> this is what i got on terminal
[02:41] <Chad> I havn't been on my linux comp for awhile and I have no idea what the password is
[02:41] <Gorogoth> Segmentation fault
[02:41] <Finger> how do I get to the compiz config manager open in Kubuntu? I have it installed via the desktop settings
[02:42] <tarvid> Gorogoth, sounds like a profile issue
[02:42] <damasceno> I need access Windows, i use Linux(Ubuntu). I try rdesktop, but, result is:

[02:42] <Terralthra> um
[02:42] <tarvid> try running firefox as a different new user, if life improves you need to try a new profile, i've forgotten how that is done but I found help at mozillazine
[02:42] <Terralthra> you can't
[02:42] <drhe|skt> does anyone know if there is a alternative ATI grfx drivers i could use? instead of the ones provided by ATI?? i get some screen tearing using ATIs drivers.
[02:43] <Terralthra> but you can tell the session manager to save your windows
[02:43] <amirman>  i've been trying to use xinit to open an application on a separate xserver that i could access with ctrl+alt+f8 but i run into some errors http://paste.ubuntu.com/41408/ - i'm thinking that it might have something to do something i discovered a few weeks ago, the authorization for x is different on ubuntu, the xauth file is created at boot and stored in /tmp so scripting something with xauth is impossible since the key or whatever is changed at each boot, i'v
[02:43] <Chad> How do i reset my ubuntu profile password?
[02:44] <Gorogoth> how can i up dare firefox
[02:44] <Kai_wp2> Can I access the terminal before loading the desktop of Ubuntu?
[02:44] <wizzer> no
[02:44] <Kai_wp2> I mean, some sort of console
[02:44] <Kai_wp2> Before the log in show up etc.
[02:44] <tarvid> Chad, in rescue mode and with care delete the password in /etc/passwd
[02:45] <Kai_wp2> * shows
[02:45] <Chad> Tarvid, You mean recovery mode right?
[02:45] <kcman> can someone help me with Cedega?
[02:45] <tarvid> yes
[02:45] <Kai_wp2> I  just need to run "sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak /etc/X11/xorg.conf".
[02:45] <Gorogoth> ok
[02:46] <pike_> Kai_wp2: alt-ctrl-f2  do what you need to then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:46] <ant2ne> Wow 1296 people in one chat
[02:46] <tarvid> Kai_wp2, that's a catch22, try Ctrl+Alt+F6
[02:46] <tarvid> it's a zoo
[02:46] <Gorogoth> how can i update firefox
[02:47] <SeligArk1n> hey my laptop keeps locking up using the HDD alot, i ghave a sneeking suspicion its indexing things
[02:47] <SeligArk1n> how can i srop this indexing?
[02:47] <ant2ne> is it indexing of swapping?
[02:47] <Kai_wp2> tarvid / pike: I can't do anything at the desktop, as I have no access. When I boot it tells me it's running in low graphics mode. Then when I configure it or say continue, I get a black screen. Although, when I configured it, after 30 seconds or so my PC beeped. Coincedentaly I just modified my xorg.conf file to work with some drivers for my tablet just before.
[02:48] <SeligArk1n> ant2ne: i do not understand the question
[02:48] <Kai_wp2> tarvid / pike: That's why I was wondering is there's some sort of console I can access before it loads the log in.
[02:48] <ant2ne> is your HD swapping memory?
[02:48] <SeligArk1n> i dont know it happens every night around the same time, however
[02:49] <ant2ne> That is odd...
[02:49] <Tybee> .
[02:49] <ant2ne> Do you have a cron job or something scheduled?
[02:49] <danbhfive> SeligArk1n: do you know what program it is?
[02:49] <Gorogoth> ok
[02:49] <Gorogoth> i guess i can't huh
[02:49] <Kai_wp2> Could I run a copy command from the rescue mode?
[02:49] <danbhfive> Gorogoth: whats your question?
[02:50] <tarvid> Kai_wp2, I don't know wubi but Ctrl+Alt+Backspace will restart X and Ctrl+Alt+F6 will switch to a terminal window and Ctrl_Alt+F7 will switch back to X
[02:50] <kcman> i can not get anything to install in Cedega is there an expert in the room?
[02:50] <SeligArk1n> as far as i can tell there is no cronjob
[02:50] <SeligArk1n> crontab -e and sudo crontab -e are both empty
[02:50] <tarvid> crontab -e
[02:50] <ant2ne> crontab -l
[02:50] <qr_> SeligArk1n: check /etc/cron.daily/ , those scripts are all run each day.
[02:50] <YellowShadow> Hey guys
[02:50] <SeligArk1n> did that too, nothing that sounds like it is indexing
[02:50] <Threethan> Sorry, I asked this before but:
[02:50] <Threethan> I'm having a problem with getting ubuntu to recognize my wireless card, or my router, or heck, I don't know. It just won't connect to the internet, and I've tried that 'Documentation Site' six time. No luck.
[02:50] <tarvid> there could be other crons scheduled in /cron.d/* cron.daily etc.
[02:51] <danbhfive> kcman: #cedega
[02:51] <YellowShadow> I'm having some problems with my montiors, after about 10-30 secs after login my monitors go to sleep.
[02:51]  * Kai_wp2 is going to try CTRL+ALT+F6 at the black screen after the configuration
[02:51] <xerxex> Hi guys, is there anyone here that can speak japanese?
[02:51] <qr_> !jp
[02:52] <xerxex> thx
[02:52] <kcman> danbfive yeah i went there i dont think anyone is home... lol
[02:52] <ant2ne> I don't know much about indexing sorry... I dont' know if it is a scheduled type of thing
[02:52] <YellowShadow> Anyone know how I can fix that?
[02:52] <danbhfive> kcman: maybe you could try wine, and the appdb
[02:52] <Gorogoth> ok that blows
[02:53] <lextori> Okay I've got my system istalled, ut it hangs durring boot on *starting bluetooth
[02:53] <RollingD34th> I need some help getting my sound card installed. It didn't have internet when i install linux. I do now, but it hasn't reconized the card. I'm pretty sure it's a sound blaster pro.
[02:53] <lolufail> does LVM have _any_ performance impact?
[02:53] <Gorogoth> where can i find some help on my firefox issuse
[02:53] <RollingD34th> I've tried to docs, but they don't tell me what to do when linux doesn't see it at all
[02:53] <kcman> danbhfive i have wine but all the games that i have are on there "to due" list....
[02:54] <ant2ne> wine is nice, but not perfect
[02:54] <ant2ne> i look at it as an added bonus
[02:54] <danbhfive> kcman: what do you mean?  what ratings do the games get?
[02:54] <ant2ne> Gorgoth what is your firefox issue?
[02:54] <xerxex> excuse me ppl, but how do I connect to #ubuntu-jp?
[02:54] <qr_> xerxex: /j #ubuntu-jp
[02:55] <danbhfive> ant2ne: Gorogoth wont say  : P
[02:55] <ant2ne> LOL
[02:55] <xerxex> Unknown host. Maybe you misspelled it?
[02:55] <ant2ne> is there a way to filter those quit: messages
[02:55] <danbhfive> ant2ne: are you using pidgin?
[02:55] <ant2ne> yes
[02:56] <danbhfive> ant2ne: there is a plugin
[02:56] <ant2ne> ahhh...
[02:56] <Gorogoth> aww :(
[02:56] <ant2ne> is it sudo apt-get able?
[02:56] <Gorogoth> ok
[02:56] <danbhfive> ant2ne: no, look under the tools menu
[02:56] <Gorogoth> ant2ne it's my turn
[02:57] <critter> I just installed Java in Dapper, but all my Java apps are running horribly slow. Does anyone know how to fix that?
[02:57]  * SeligArk1n heart irssi
[02:57] <kcman> danbhfive well no one is supporting diablo (the first one) i got SC working, i also have WoW running but as soon as i start moving around the app closes itself something about my graphics card even though i have 3d rendering i was just looking for a app that will aid my machine along in the goof off hours
[02:57] <ant2ne> I see the plug ins.. what one am I lookin for?
[02:57] <Threethan> Any idea if ubuntu would find a driver on my windows machine, or if it comes with certain drivers already installed?
[02:57] <SeligArk1n> meh i will just deal with it and see if ican fix it later
[02:57] <qr_> critter: make sure you got sun's java and not gnu's java
[02:58] <danbhfive> kcman: have you seen the app database?  Sometimes it has additional setup info to make the games actually work...
[02:58] <critter> qr, the package I installed was sun-java5, so I'm thinking it's the right one.
[02:58] <danbhfive> Threethan: whats the problem?
[02:58] <qr_> critter: indeed... maybe try java6? I don't know.
[02:58] <afallenhope> hey havin' an issue here. I plugged my phone into the USB I wrote "lsusb" it picks it up where do I know it's mounted?
[02:58] <Threethan> Well, I can't connect to the internet. It shows my ethernet card (Both of them) and I change the properties to DCHP (or however you say it) and it just won't connect.
[02:58] <critter> I suppose. I'll try it, see if it's any better.
[02:59] <Threethan> I was thinking it might just be that the driver isn't installed intot he ubuntu hard drive, but is on the window hard drive.
[02:59] <danbhfive> Threethan: no, ubuntu includes all its own drivers
[02:59] <ant2ne> hmm
[03:00] <ant2ne> i guess that worked
[03:00] <danbhfive> Threethan: if its a wireless ethernet, then its slightly different....
[03:00] <ant2ne> teh quit messages stopped
[03:00] <ant2ne> this is now tolorable
[03:00] <afallenhope> Anyone gonna help/
[03:00] <afallenhope> because I check bitpim and it says usb::001::005::2
[03:00]  * RollingD34th still needs help with his sound card
[03:00] <danbhfive> ant2ne: yeah, its nice because it still shows quit messages of people who were active in the channel
[03:01] <pai> co ai noi tieng viet ko
[03:01] <pai> :D
[03:01] <ant2ne> ahh
[03:01] <gaintsura> seems my video probs will never be fixed =( I can't think of any other ideas
[03:01] <Threethan> No, it's a wired ethernet.
[03:02] <gaintsura> 50 sites, 25 same answers, 0 problems fixed
[03:02] <kcman> danbhfive i can see that you are a wine fan... lol
[03:03] <shiloh7> giantsura, what problem
[03:03] <BiNaRyCoDe> Will someone help me?
[03:03] <shiloh7> !question
[03:03] <Finger> Anyone know of any drivers for my Logitech G5 mouse?
[03:03] <gaintsura> shiloh7: I've been working for 3-4 days now trying to get full screen video to function, every time I try to go full screen, I get a flicker and it returns to window mode. Direct render is disabled and I can't seem to figure out why. When I enable the ATI restricted drivers, I lose all GUI
[03:04] <Gorogoth> ok
[03:04] <ant2ne> Full Screen? Window Mode? What app is this?
[03:04] <shiloh7> giantsura, ahhh, sorry, I am an Nvidia believer
[03:04] <gaintsura> ant2ne: any, mplayer, web browser, doesn't matter
[03:05] <BiNaRyCoDe> I recently installed a ubuntu linux on a 1.4ghz computer, but as I try to boot it, it takes forever....could someone help me figure out why?
[03:05] <ant2ne> so... video won't play in full screen in any app?
[03:05] <danbhfive> kcman: er, no, its my understanding that cedega is based off of wine.  I just checked the appdb, and it says that diable II works
[03:05] <gaintsura> ant2ne: with mplayer, flv video playback is slow and choppy
[03:05] <gaintsura> ant2ne: nope
[03:05] <ant2ne> nvidia is the way to go
[03:05] <ant2ne> what type of card?
[03:05] <danbhfive> Finger: whats the problem with your mouse?  I have a G5 laser mouse
[03:05] <Finger> not so much a problem as a lack of functionality
[03:05] <ant2ne> I think Gorogoth is is a bot
[03:05] <Kai_wp> Alright, using rescue mode to "Fix the X Server" worked. I'm back into Ubuntu. But now Compiz Fusion won't work. It's installed, but when I run "compiz --replace" from the terminal I get "No whitelisted driver found. aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity". How can I fix this?
[03:05] <shiloh7> G5 rules. :P
[03:06] <Finger> like the software DPI modes, the side scrolling etc
[03:06] <kcman> danbhfive yeah part 2 works and it also is supposed to work in cedega but i havent tried to install that one i was trying to get the first one to work, i am fan of the first one
[03:06] <ant2ne> Kai, want ubuntu version you using?
[03:06] <gaintsura> ant2ne: ATI X1200 Series
[03:07] <shiloh7> giantsura, ewwwwwwwww
[03:07] <gaintsura> shiloh7: not my choice, its a laptop
[03:07] <ant2ne> I hear ATI is not the best linux friendly
[03:07] <Kai_wp> ant2ne: Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron 32-bit
[03:07] <danbhfive> Finger: yeah, I don't know of a solution to the soft. DPI, and I never use the side scrolling, but in theory, those are just buttons
[03:07] <gaintsura> ant2ne: it was working fine about 4 months ago, and between the system upgrades it stopped working
[03:07] <afallenhope> Anyone.. know where my phone's path would be? lsusb picks it up..
[03:07] <bofh80> ant2ne, that has changed since AMD take over. ATI themselves never bothered with drivers for linux
[03:08] <ant2ne> giant, could that be a codec issue?
[03:08] <danbhfive> Finger: you should be able to map them to things, something, somewhere, not sure really
[03:08] <Finger> you'd think it would be something that would be auto detected and utilized in proper situations
[03:08] <ant2ne> were you using automatix?
[03:08] <gaintsura> ant2ne: I don't think so. I cannot get catalyst to work either since the upgrade, and no I was not
[03:08] <Finger> I'm a newbie... mapping things isnt something I have any clue on lol
[03:08] <shiloh7> giantsura, you tried envyNG?
[03:08] <gaintsura> bofh80: agreed
[03:08] <ant2ne> Kai, can you not click Preferences -> Advanced Desktop Settings
[03:08] <Finger> hell I understand so little about Linux I feel like I need a degree just to turn off the computer now =P
[03:08] <gaintsura> shiloh7: yes, and those didn't get me any closer, actually after envyng I had to remove ALL of the display drivers and start from basically nothing
[03:09] <shiloh7> giantsura, :(, i am sorry to hear that
[03:09] <danbhfive> Finger: well, each mouse button is numbered, so when you left click, Linux is told that mouse button one was pressed.  The side scroll buttons are like 7 and 8 or something like that.   Most linux apps use one the first 3, which is the problem
[03:10] <gaintsura> shiloh7: the sad part is, this all stemmed from not being able to open catalyst to adjust anti alias settings because full screen video was pixelated, now I can't even get full screen video =(
[03:10] <cutandbrused> hello
[03:10] <ant2ne> hi
[03:10] <danbhfive> Finger: Im gona look into something...
[03:10] <Kai_wp> Also, when I try to set the "Visual Effects" to "Extra" it says that desktop effects can't be enabled.
[03:11] <danbhfive> kcman: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=3498&iTestingId=22891
[03:11] <shiloh7> giantsura, i have a dell alppy with ATI, but i dont push it
[03:11] <tyg13> Kai_wp: Do you have a good graphics card?
[03:11] <Finger> kk
[03:11] <tyg13> Kai_wp: Do you think it could handle it?
[03:11] <gaintsura> shiloh7: I wasn't trying to push it, I was just trying to make it so when I watched a streaming movie it wasn't pixelated
[03:12] <shiloh7> giantsura, no, i meant me cause ati and linux dont have a great relationship
[03:12] <gaintsura> shiloh7: it worked fine previously
[03:12] <ant2ne> Kai, have you ever gotten compiz to play nice?
[03:12] <tyg13> kai_wp are you still there?
[03:13] <mochabcha> does anybody know anything about blender here
[03:13] <mochabcha> mine won't open
[03:14] <kcman> danbhfive ok so you want a cookie, nah i am only playing thanks for showing me that, and that i also wasted 45 bucks today dam i am totally lost still with linux i still have so much more to learn...
[03:14] <shiloh7> giantsura, im at a loss, i have no advice
[03:14] <ant2ne> blender? You open the top... drop in ice and spirits and fruit....
[03:14] <gaintsura> shiloh7: =( no one seems to
[03:14] <Kai_wp> tyg13: Yes, an XFX Nvidia 8600 GT XXX 256MB.
[03:14] <shiloh7> :(
[03:14] <ant2ne> sorry giant... ATI not friendly
[03:14] <gaintsura> shiloh7: I've tried literally everything I can, talked to at least 15 people
[03:15] <ant2ne> sounds like you tried to fix noe problem and ran into aother
[03:15] <gaintsura> ant2ne: it was working fine before, and now it doesn't at all
[03:15] <nutricycle> is it possible to install native video drivers in a virtual machine?
[03:15] <gaintsura> ant2ne: exactly
[03:15] <Kai_wp> tyg13: Compiz Fusion worked perfectly before I replaced my xorg.conf with the generic one in rescue mode.
[03:15] <danbhfive> kcman: no, I dont want I cookie!  I was trying to help  : (     really.   How did you loose $45?  I don't get whats happening...
[03:15] <cup0beans> does anyone know why when i get a large amount of traffic through my connection my wireless would stay connected but the internet drops? it only happens with wireless
[03:15] <tyg13> Kai_wp: Did you make any changes to the xorg.conf before restoring it?
[03:15] <ant2ne> Kai: DOH!!! Did you make a back up?
[03:16] <ant2ne> Some files should be auto backed up before editing. IMO
[03:16] <kcman> danbhfive it is 45 for the account with Cedega and i was dumb and paid them thinking that it included customer support, guess the joke is on me lol and i am not trying to pick a fight or mean to come accross mocking i was really being serious thank you really! :)
[03:16] <Kai_wp> tyg13: The only intentional changes was that modified it to work with my tablet. I was following a tutorial. But it wasn't so specific about where to paste things. :P
[03:17] <nodoubt> can bind run correctly from var/lib/named/etc ? is this a newbie friendly location for bind to live?
[03:17] <Kai_wp> I just enabled my video cards drivers. So I'm going to reboot. Although I'd like to know, is it risky to use CTRL+ALT+Backspace to reboot faster?
[03:17] <tyg13> Kai_wp: Just backup normally, we don't really want to screw things up even more
[03:17] <qr_> Kai_wp: no, not risky, but ctrl+alt+backspace doesn't reboot
[03:17] <tyg13> Kai_wp: restart*
[03:17] <aglio2> hey, I'm having some trouble using aptitude to install the software I want
[03:17] <ant2ne> CNTL+ALT+BKSPACE is not reboot/restart
[03:17] <aglio2> should I not be using aptitude?
[03:18] <ant2ne> it only restarts X
[03:18] <Kai_wp> So what would a full reboot do that restarting X wouldn't?
[03:18] <tyg13> aglio2: What software do you want to install?
[03:18] <Kai_wp> Quite a bit?
[03:18] <aglio2> postgresql 8.3 to start out
[03:18] <tyg13> Kai_wp: Reinitialize everything
[03:18] <ant2ne> ummm everything non graphical
[03:18] <ant2ne> LOL
[03:18] <qr_> Kai_wp: restart everything that runs on your computer that isn't X
[03:18] <Kai_wp> Alright, I'll do a full reboot from now on then. :P Thanks.
[03:18]  * Kai_wp reboots
[03:19] <aglio2> but I can't find the packages -- when I search for "postgresql" i get a list of 220+ packages
[03:19] <ant2ne> You need not do a full reboot often in Linux
[03:19] <aglio2> which *don't* include postgresql-server
[03:19] <danbhfive> kcman: cool.  I don't know much about cedega, except that it is based on wine.  I'm not trying to convert you particularly, I just figured that since its the same code base, the wine support might work for cedega.  But for $45, you probably should get some sort of support.  I would email them, anyway, good luck, and happy gaming!
[03:19] <aglio2> the search doesn't appear to work
[03:19] <tyg13> aglio2: Have you tried Add/Remove?
[03:19] <qr_> aglio2: try theaptitiudesearchcommand | sort | less
[03:19] <tyg13> aglio2: or Synaptic?
[03:19] <aglio2> tyg13: it's a hosted server.  I'm limited to commandline
[03:20] <ant2ne> my understanding is that cadega is an off-shoot of wine. cadega kicks some of its code and $$ to wine
[03:20] <tyg13> aglio2: Oh. Okay
[03:20] <aglio2> hmmm
[03:20] <aglio2> I'm thinking aptitude is a loss
[03:20] <aglio2> broken
[03:20] <tyg13> aglio2: Use sudo aptitude search postgresql
[03:20] <aglio2> I'm root
[03:20] <ant2ne> how do you install aptitude LOL
[03:20] <tyg13> aglio2: Then just use aptitude search postgresql
[03:20] <wickedpuppy> hi guys , i am wondering how do I give access to a friend? I am getting invalid template error
[03:21] <tyg13> wickedpuppy: Root access?
[03:21] <ant2ne> what access?
[03:21] <ant2ne> Kai is back
[03:21] <aglio2> tyg13: just so you know, that gives me a *completely* different list than aptitude curses interface gives me
[03:21] <Kai_wp> Tis a success. :)
[03:21] <ant2ne> oh?
[03:21] <ant2ne> you got compiz up?
[03:22] <ThOuGhtFuL> o/
[03:22] <BiNaRyCoDe> I have a question ppl: if I install Ubuntu and then restart why does it not boot up?
[03:22] <Kai_wp> Ya, I just ran "compiz --replace". Although it complains of an incorrect value somewhere, it did that before too. Yet it still works.
[03:22] <tyg13> Kai_wp: I had the same problem, I just didn't know to check the drivers :)
[03:22] <ant2ne> Then do a sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bk
[03:22] <wickedpuppy> tyg13, no no ... in one of the channel here ... not on my machine
[03:22] <wickedpuppy> :P
[03:22] <tyg13> wickedpuppy: So IRC access?
[03:23] <Kai_wp> tyg13: I Googled the exact error message and found a topic on it marked "solved". Although the solution wasn't to check your drivers, when someone mentioned them I checked to see if mine were enabled. :)
[03:23] <wickedpuppy> tyg13, yes
[03:23] <aglio2> feh, what's the search tool for apt-get again?
[03:23] <Pici> wickedpuppy: #freenode would be the best place to ask, thats the irc network that you are on.
[03:23] <ant2ne> frankly, I don't kow how I got in IRC
[03:23] <wickedpuppy> ah ...
[03:23] <tyg13> wickedpuppy: Don't ask in here :)
[03:23] <tyg13> wickedpuppy: I honestly have no idea on IRC channel modes and such
[03:23] <nodoubt> BiNaRyCoDe:  it is a bug in ubuntu install - d/l updates - then check for updates again - then try restart
[03:24] <jimmio> is there a utility to edit files via terminal?
[03:24] <qr_> jimmio: vim , nano, emacs, pico ... pick one
[03:24] <ant2ne> nano
[03:24] <tyg13> jimmio: nano, vim, emacs
[03:24] <ant2ne> i like nano
[03:24] <wickedpuppy> tyg13, i think i been asking this question everywhere and they told me to come here ... my mistake is i didn't say its irc access ... silly me
[03:24] <ant2ne> ??
[03:24] <tyg13> jimmio: although nano is arguably the easiest for newbies
[03:24] <aglio2> what I really want is YAST's curses interface combined with apt-get's installation
[03:24] <ant2ne> =-P
[03:25] <ant2ne> It gets the job done fast and easy
[03:25] <Flannel> aglio2: try aptitude
[03:25] <bofh80> lol
[03:25] <Xcerca> anybody know a good place to find grub-gfxboot menus ?
[03:25] <qr_> ant2ne: you just need to learn how to search properly with apt-get ... sort and grep are your friends inthis case.
[03:25] <aglio2> Flannel: joke?
[03:25] <Xcerca> i want to change mine
[03:25] <jimmio> renaming files? =P
[03:25] <Flannel> aglio2: no.  run aptitude with no arguments.  It opens a curses TUI
[03:25] <ant2ne> Honestly, how long do you want to sit at terminal text editor?
[03:26] <ant2ne> qr? what does apt-get have to do with anythng?
[03:26] <aglio2> Flannel: I just got through bitching about how broken the aptitude interface is
[03:26] <Flannel> aglio2: alright, well, I just got here.  so, fair enough.  I have no idea what yast's interface is like.
[03:26] <kcman> danbhfive you still here?
[03:27] <ant2ne> danbhfive hasn't said nothing in awile
[03:27] <aglio2> Flannel: easy to use
[03:27] <danbhfive> heh, im here  : P
[03:28] <stepanstas> Hello.  So Ubuntu recently died on me, but i was able to recover all the files.  I think i had some problems with my harddrive.
[03:28] <aglio2> Flannel: if only it weren't on top of SuSE and their darned proprietary RPMs
[03:28] <stepanstas> I was wondering if i should run tests to see if i should reinstall on this one and check for bad sectors, or get a new one?
[03:28] <BunTai> how to run on root?
[03:28] <ant2ne> stepanstas: that reminds me. Windows has a chkdsk /R function that recovers bad sectors of a hard drive... What is the linux version of this?
[03:28] <BunTai> how to run terminal on root?
[03:29] <djhash> BunTai: sudo
[03:29] <BunTai> ok
[03:29] <BunTai> how to delete file in blacklist?
[03:29] <dft> I'm a bit sceptical about the fact that when attempting to install nfs-common, I"m being asked to remove apparmor, initscripts, mount and a few other key packages
[03:29] <BunTai> my wireless connection still cant connect
[03:30] <ant2ne> wireless + linux = vodoo... JK
[03:30] <stepanstas> ant2ne, I think it was fsck and i think i tried that once.  But then if failed again and i wasnted to know if these were physical bad sectors or recoverable
[03:30] <Dabbu> how to update to install driver in ubuntu ?
[03:30] <danbhfive> Dabbu: what driver?
[03:30] <dft> http://paste.ubuntu.com/41423/
[03:30] <Dabbu> any hardware driver ..
[03:30] <Dabbu> like display driver
[03:31] <ant2ne> why update? is it not working?
[03:31] <Varange> hi there
[03:31] <djhash> dft: why are you installing nfs-common
[03:31] <Dabbu> working but i find that the display is not clear
[03:32] <ant2ne> does fsck --help doesn't say notta about bad sectors. unless blocks are sectors
[03:32] <ant2ne> djhash: He is installing nfs-common to share files with his XO,,, JK
[03:32] <sanassar> God I have to keep changing my name to sanassar wheen I come
[03:32] <ant2ne> I just did that
[03:32] <ring0> hi, how can i see which charset i have installed?
[03:32] <Varange> i have just installed ubuntu-server, and i can't get the xserver to run. I have installed kdm, gdm, xserver-xorg and kde. the reocnfigure for xserver has no section relating to video settigns at all
[03:32] <dft> djhash: seems required for mounting nfs shares
[03:32] <sanassar> I'm bored.Anyone need some problems solved?
[03:32] <stepanstas> ant2ne, i dont even know if there is a difference between sectors and blocks
[03:32] <Varange> sanassar: me pls
[03:33] <sanassar> Varange:What do you need
[03:33] <Varange> sanassar: i have just installed ubuntu-server, and i can't get the xserver to run. I have installed kdm, gdm, xserver-xorg and kde. the reocnfigure for xserver has no section relating to video settigns at all
[03:33] <Varange> hi sanassar, btw :)
[03:33] <ant2ne> if you do a fsck --help it says "-c  Check for bad blocks and add them to the badblock list"
[03:33] <ant2ne> that sounds like what you want to do
[03:33] <ant2ne> if you suspect the HD is going south
[03:33] <andrer> i am trying to run a php script in background... but if i do "php script.php &" it goes straight to "stopped" state... i can FG to it to continue... but why is it stopping?
[03:34] <djhash> dft: what version of ubuntu are you running
[03:34] <tsuna27> hi what is the command for the trash can
[03:34] <RoC_MasterMind> is there a way to remove the proprietary nvidia driver if installed through the restricted drivers manager?
[03:34] <Varange> sanassar: where do I start diagnosing?
[03:34] <dft> djhash: server 8.04
[03:34] <Xcerca> is there a good place to get new grub-gfxboot screens ?
[03:34] <ant2ne> tsuna... I just found that one... Oooo what was it again
[03:35] <stepanstas> ant2ne, and is there any way to check the badblock list? If it already has a lot of bad blocks, i dont think its work installing on
[03:35] <dft> djhash: is there and equiv. to /etc/redhat-release for ubuntu?
[03:35] <djhash> dft: i dont have nfs-common installed.. and I can still mount network shares..
[03:35] <ant2ne> I think the bad block list would be in the file table... so I dn't think it is checkable... not sure
[03:35] <dft> djhash: I'll test it out
[03:36] <stepanstas> ant2ne, okay. well thanks for your help.  Ill try reinstalling it
[03:36] <ant2ne> stepanstas, I'd run fsck -c one more time
[03:36] <ring0> could anyone help me find out which charset i have installed?
[03:36] <ant2ne> if it crashes again... scrap the HD
[03:36] <djhash> dft: as a matter of fact.. at the moment I am watching a video on VLC reading a file from a windows share..
[03:36] <sudobash> this  laptop i am working on has a virus in the laptop and even ubuntu confirmed it....
[03:36] <dft> djhash: that's not nfs though that would smb
[03:37] <djhash> dft: oh.. right.. i guess i'm not in know about nfs..
[03:37] <dft> djhash: np
[03:37] <ant2ne> nfs = network file system
[03:37] <ant2ne> old unix stuff
[03:37] <hatoon> oi

[03:39] <Jordan_U> kcman: Yes
[03:39] <syndr0> i downloaded screem but not a big fan of it.
[03:39] <syndr0> gaintsura, is it in the syn manager?
[03:39] <gaintsura> syndr0: I like bluefish, its pretty well balanced, good syntax highlighting.
[03:39] <gaintsura> I belive it is
[03:39] <syndr0> good for java too
[03:39] <fastmady> How do I configure wireless in Ubuntu?
[03:39] <kcman> Jordan_U wow that is really cool thanks for the help

[03:43] <syndr0> cast, ty
[03:43] <trii> i have problem whit my linux
[03:43] <syndr0> cast, i really dont know anything about python so i was asking someone if they knew about it so i couldask them what it could be used for and how
[03:43] <gaintsura> sudobash: microcrap hard at work I see
[03:43] <meoblast001> wtf is up with openoffice
[03:43] <nDuff> syndr0, then ask the whole channel, or join #python
[03:43] <syndr0> cast, sorry my mother failed in raising me to be a linux guru
[03:43] <syndr0> k
[03:44] <meoblast001> im trying to tell it  23:04 as a race time and it converts it to 11:04:00 PM
[03:44] <meoblast001> how do i fix this?
[03:44] <nDuff> syndr0, asking only one person a question isn't considered polite, unless that question is topical to a discussion you're already having.
[03:44] <ant2ne> ls ~/.local/share/Trash
[03:44] <cast> syndr0: well, i know the odd thing about python, so will quite a few other people :)
[03:44] <syndr0> im sorry
[03:44] <nDuff> syndr0, that said, Python's pretty good as a general-purpose language. Do you have a more specific question?
[03:44] <syndr0> i meant it more to everyone
[03:44] <syndr0> usually when i come in here
[03:44] <syndr0> everyone ignores me
[03:44] <FloodBot3> syndr0: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:44] <syndr0> so i was talking to the first person that acknowledged me
[03:45] <tsuna27> gaintsura: i want to create a launcer for AWN and that commands not workin
[03:45] <Nomad> i'm having a weird issue where i can't seem to access resolutions higher than 800x600 (and it takes some doing to get access to that mode, normally 640x480 is the max). i have a GeForce4 Ti 4200, and am running ubuntu 8.04. everything used to autodetect just fine, any ideas what might be wrong?
[03:45] <gaintsura> tsuna27: cant help you there, sorry
[03:45] <ant2ne> tsuna: ls ~/.local/share/Trash
[03:46] <ant2ne> what is AWN?
[03:46] <syndr0> yes, what can you use python for, give some real simple examples. the last time i used to program it was with vb. so sorry im outta date. im trying to get back into computers ya know
[03:46] <nDuff> syndr0, I use Python to write virtual machine automation and control software.
[03:46] <syndr0> cast whats the odd thing about python
[03:46] <tsuna27> Ant2ne: AWN is the launcer
[03:46] <mano> when is 8.10 coming out?
[03:47] <syndr0> ok. so to make a computer do tasks a user would do ... correct?
[03:47] <cast> syndr0: you can use python for pretty much anything. i use it for processing data and controling other apps
[03:47] <djhash> syndr0: you want to see what python can do.. check out Canola
[03:47] <syndr0> djhash link me
[03:47] <G_N_A_A_ballsac> hylol
[03:47] <syndr0> can you use python in html
[03:47] <nDuff> syndr0, see http://pypi.python.org/ for a list of software written in python
[03:47] <ant2ne> Nomad:what graphics card do you have?
[03:47] <syndr0> like can you implement a program on a website thats made in python
[03:47] <djhash> syndr0: http://openbossa.indt.org.br/canola/
[03:47] <nDuff> syndr0, sure; see turbogears.org, and the 20 Minute Wiki example.
[03:48] <Nomad> ant2ne:  GeForce4 Ti 4200
[03:48] <ant2ne> do you see it listed in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file?
[03:49] <dft> alright, anyone else have any insight to the following message: http://paste.ubuntu.com/41423/
[03:49] <Nomad> ant2ne: currently all i've got the Device section is "NVIDIA GeForce4 (generic)"
[03:49] <danbhfive> andrer: did you figure it out?
[03:49] <Finger> Can anyone help me install a theme in kubuntu? I've read docs about general theme installs and from the maker of the theme but I cannot get it to actually apply the theme (using kbfx)
[03:50] <ant2ne> can you... System -> Administration -> Restricted Drivers ???
[03:50] <syndr0> damn no sound for 20 min wiki example
[03:50] <ant2ne> dft: what was the command the led to that message?
[03:51] <Nomad> ant2ne: I see Hardware Drivers, no Restricted Drivers though..
[03:51] <danbhfive> andrer: I was curious, and I think it might be that if you use echo, it stops the script?  Since it needs to output to the shell.  Try coding your script so it doesnt output to the shell...
[03:51] <dft> ant2ne: apt-get install nfs-common
[03:51] <AnarkiNet> whats a favourite mail daemon for 'nix?
[03:51] <ant2ne> Nomad: that is what I meant
[03:51] <Nomad> in that case yes :p
[03:51] <ant2ne> is your device listed there?
[03:51] <Nomad> and they're enabled
[03:51] <cast> dft: can you add 'mount' to the aptitude install line?
[03:51] <ant2ne> Oh... dang... I'm at a loss then
[03:52] <AnarkiNet> im switching over a windows server 2008 box to ubuntu server and email is something i want to get up and running asap
[03:52] <cast> AnarkiNet: in debian land, exim
[03:52] <AnarkiNet> ok
[03:52] <dft> cast: probably, you're thinking apt-get install nfs-common mount?
[03:52] <Nomad> ant2ne: it's listed as 'NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver' though, not the actual name of my video card... could that be an issue ?
[03:52] <cast> dft: regarding your paste :>
[03:52] <emyller> 'eevning
[03:53] <syndr0> does anyone use boa constructor?
[03:53] <dVs> how do i install emerald tar.gz themes ?
[03:53] <emyller> guys, i'm connected with a hsdpa modem (3G)
[03:53] <dft> cast: my concern is why would mount, initscripts and system-services have to be removed?
[03:53] <emyller> i have to use wvdial to connect, but...
[03:54] <cast> dft: got anything strange in /etc/apt/sources.list?
[03:54] <ant2ne> Nomad, I don't know. it very well could be.
[03:54] <emyller> till before i change something i dont know, i could also connect by using the network-admin
[03:54] <Finger> Can anyone help me install a theme in kubuntu? I've read docs about general theme installs and from the maker of the theme but I cannot get it to actually apply the theme (using kbfx)
[03:54] <dVs> how do i install emerald tar.gz themes ?
[03:54] <Nomad> alright, well i'll get back to googling and see if i can figure something out. thanks for the help though !
[03:54] <dft> cast: root@gibson:~# cat /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:54] <dft> deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
[03:54] <ant2ne> good luck Nomad
[03:54] <ant2ne> check back here again
[03:55] <emyller> but when i try to reconfigure my modem on it, the changes simply dont take effect and they disappear
[03:55] <G_N_A_A_ballsac> WHAY UBUNTU DOSENT WORK!?????????????????????
[03:55] <cast> dft: wait, why are we talking in #ubuntu
[03:55] <Dr_willis> Finger,  you may want to check the kbfx homepage/docs - if its a kbfx theme.  Proberly you just copy the files to the users .kbfx or similer location
[03:55] <Dr_willis> G_N_A_A_ballsac,  thats one way to get on everyone's /ignore list
[03:55] <gregbrady> What is the best way to install a sound card that was not recognized by the installation of 8.04?
[03:55] <emyller> dVs: try to rename the file to .emerald instead of .tar.gz
[03:55] <jimmio> question, what can I do to make a password field of sorts in a terminal application?
[03:55] <zelrikriando> G_N_A_A_ballsac, Calm down and explain
[03:55] <dft> cast: this box was built from ubuntu server 8.04
[03:56] <ring0> could you help me figure out which charset i have?
[03:56] <unavailable> Say i want to infect my windows install inside virtual box with that new "antivirus xp 2008"
[03:56] <emyller> anyone?
[03:56] <Diazepam> Hi anyone know of an application that can monitor and log remote user bandwidth?
[03:56] <steven3> Hello!
[03:56] <dVs> emyller nope that didnt work
[03:56] <Barqs> Hi, what gives m4a/aac support in amarok?
[03:56] <unavailable> would it be able to jump partitions
[03:57] <cast> dft: oh, well. you're in unsupported land. if you want to use debian, install debian.
[03:57] <cast> dft: but that explains how you're hitting such problems
[03:57] <unavailable> Say i want to infect my windows install inside virtual box with that new "antivirus xp 2008"
[03:57] <unavailable> would it be able to jump "partitions"
[03:58] <dft> cast: so you're telling me that out of the box, ubuntu server is pulling down from the debian repos and I get left in the dark because of it...hmmm
[03:58] <cast> dft: surely not?
[03:58] <emyller> dVs: what is inside that file?
[03:58] <emyller> the gz
[03:59] <unavailable> join /windows
[03:59] <iarspider> unavailable: if you use virtual disks (not physical partitions) - then no
[03:59] <cast> dft: if ubuntu server does that it should be an epic bug
[03:59] <unavailable> arrgh
[03:59] <dft> cast: agreed
[03:59] <meoblast001> why cant i install cinelerra from ubuntu?
[03:59] <unavailable> iarspider: so it would not be able to mess with my dual boot xp part
[03:59] <unavailable> ?
[03:59] <dft> cast: I haven't manually changed that sources list
[03:59] <zelrikriando> meoblast001, you should be able to
[03:59] <dVs> two files gtk2.0 and metacity 1
[03:59] <iarspider> I think so
[03:59] <unavailable> cus ive heard that even after a complete wipe, that virus is still there
[03:59] <zelrikriando> meoblast001, but I wont recommend it
[03:59] <meoblast001> whats the package name
[03:59] <meoblast001> why not
[04:00] <meoblast001> everything on google recommends it
[04:00] <meoblast001> all other video editors suck
[04:00] <iarspider> 'cause what goes on inside the VM is completely isolated from the host systemn
[04:00] <meoblast001> kdenlive works about as good as windows movie maker but crashes 24/7
[04:00] <sudobash> can you run a live OS over PXE like citrix?
[04:00] <unavailable> allright
[04:00] <unavailable> cool
[04:00] <unavailable> thanks all
[04:00] <zelrikriando> meoblast001, You have to hack in it to make it work properly...it's not even a 1.0 to me
[04:00] <cast> dft: hmmm. dunno. how about using debian :>
[04:00] <meoblast001> zelrikriando: no video editing in linux?
[04:00] <zelrikriando> meoblast001, it might have evolved...not sure...
[04:00] <zelrikriando> meoblast001, use Kino
[04:00] <iarspider> unavailable: I think this is how AV labs do their tests
[04:00] <meoblast001> kino sux
[04:01] <zelrikriando> meoblast001, maybe a bit less features but it works....
[04:01] <meoblast001> first it has to do a 1 hour conversion to DV of a 30 second clip
[04:01] <Theaxiom> To add something to path, do I just add it like this without the quotes: "$PATH:/path/to/something" ?
[04:01] <JymmmEMC> I'm just curious, has anyone every got wifi working on a laptop using a livecd?
[04:01] <zelrikriando> meoblast001, I use it...
[04:01] <dft> cast: as much as I'd love to tear down and rebuild this box, the time is not available
[04:01] <meoblast001> then it gives you like 2 options, make the video black and white, crop it, and thats about it
[04:01] <Dr_willis> Theaxiom,  you must 'export' the variable for child processes to see it , export PATH=$PATH:/extra/path
[04:01] <legend2440> dVs: http://openswitch.org/2008/04/28/how-to-enable-emerald-in-hardy-heron-804/

[04:04] <blak> caan sum1 help me find how to open airsnort?
[04:04] <zelrikriando> meoblast001, but cinelerra is messed up...it's a good software but a real pain to make it work

[04:06] <meoblast001> to dv
[04:06] <blak> well, I feel like an infant. Thanks!
[04:07] <ansichart> Has anyone else had problems with Adobe Flash Player plugin not having audio?
[04:07] <gregbrady> So, no way to install my sound card?  Which is an AC97?
[04:07] <jimmio> ansichart: There's another audio app currently using the device.
[04:07] <blak> I can't quite grasp how to compile a tarball either
[04:07] <jimmio> ansichart: Rhythmbox for instance.
[04:07] <zelrikriando> meoblast001, I did some 10minutes videos with it...I am not sure about the longer ones...but usually video editing do take time
