[03:00] <sivik> grand, i get to figure out how to do that
[03:00] <Pelo> PedroDaGr8,  please restate yor problem I don'T recall
[03:00] <PedroDaGr8> umm I am not sure how to go about asking a question on here so I am just going to go ahead and ask it: I am trying to run the Ubuntu liveCD (MD5 checks out 5 burned cd's all checked out iwth no errors). It refuses to load it just hangs with the orangish brown background and nothing else comes up, if I hit Alt-F1 I see some errors about my wireless card cand send SSID or something like that. My wireless card is an Intel 2200BG. If anyone ca
[03:00] <Sh3r1ff> wastedfluid: tried doing it in the live cd? there you have no problem deleting partitions
[03:00] <wastedfluid> Sh3r1ff:
[03:00] <PedroDaGr8> Video is intel integrated
[03:00] <wastedfluid> It wants you to unmount ANY logical partitions over 5 to delete hda5
[03:00] <wastedfluid> So I think it wants me to unmount hda6, and 5.. to delete 5.
[03:00] <Pelo> wastedfluid, from the live cd did you try unmounting the hda4 first ?
[03:01] <rabiddachshund> when I run sudo visudo, my password works, but when I try to move a directory, it's not right. I've added myself to the admin group but I just can't figure out what's going on.
[03:01] <wastedfluid> I'd be scared to do that, Pelo.  So, boot into live.. and unmount hda 4.. then delete hda5 ?
[03:01] <Ironman273> Sh3r1ff:  whatever I did it's not asking me for the keyring password anymore, only my WEP key, but I guess that's the lesser of 2 evils...  Thanks for the help
[03:01] <wastedfluid> will fstab update.. as in, know that the swap is now hda5, and not hda6?
[03:01] <Pelo> wastedfluid,  then   delete both 5 and 6  ,  reach in the / fstab and make a small edit
[03:01] <Sh3r1ff> Ironman273: open keyring manager and see if the default keyring is still there
[03:01] <Doonz> how is this board for use under unbuntu MSI 945GM3-F w/ DualDDR2, Video, 7.1 Audio, Gigabit Lan, SATA II, PCI-E x16
[03:01] <San_Tehnik> good night people)
[03:01] <Pelo> wastedfluid,  you'll need to make a new 5
[03:01] <wastedfluid> pelo: will ubuntu run without a swap?
[03:02] <Sh3r1ff> wastedfluid: it can
[03:02] <Ironman273> Sh3r1ff:  Yeah, one says "default" in bold and then there's "session"
[03:02] <wastedfluid> Let me make sure I have this.
[03:02] <Pelo> PedroDaGr8,  ok I see for further reference  please use my nick in every line
[03:02] <Sh3r1ff> Ironman273: can you delete it now?
[03:02] <navets> hey how do i make things automatically start in ubuntu
[03:02] <Tarkus> anyone know if i want to be able to edit the files on my webserver (/var/www/) directly with an IDE. i need to 'chown -R mike /var/www' right? or is it not a good idea to do that to /var/www/ (by default /var/www/ is owned by root)..
[03:02] <wastedfluid> Boot off live cd;  unmount hda4.. delete hda5, rename hda6 to hda5.. and then reboot into ubuntu and update fstab?
[03:03] <Pelo> wastedfluid,  you will be making a new swap and you will edit fstab from the live cd to correct the fstab entry for swap
[03:03] <Clarrisa_2008> clearze1, the thernet card is a SMC1244tx v2
[03:03] <PedroDaGr8> ahhh sorry pelo my bad
[03:03] <naknak987> i cant figure it out so im just going to use windows. peace
[03:03] <Pelo> PedroDaGr8,   ok  boot up the live cd nd run the cd integrity check from the boot menu ,  maybe you have a bad cd
[03:03] <wastedfluid> Pelo: Hm.  I will be able to access /etc/fstab from the live cd?
[03:03] <PedroDaGr8> i did that
[03:03] <PedroDaGr8> pelo i did that
[03:04] <PedroDaGr8> pelo all 5 have checked out fine
[03:04] <X_M4n> the only way i can run Ubunta is thru the safe mode setting at boot
[03:04] <Sh3r1ff> wastedfluid: you don't need /etc/fstab in the live cd
[03:04] <Pelo> wastedfluid,  yes you just mount the / partiton  and navigat the same wway as in the installed version
[03:04] <Taime1_> i just installed ubuntu feisty to a laptop about ten minutes ago, and i have no sound.. there is no red x on the sound icon.. can someone please help me troubleshoot this??
[03:04] <clearze1> Clarrisa_2008: what does lspci -v show you?
[03:04] <clearze1> Clarrisa_2008:paste it in pastebin if you would
[03:04] <wastedfluid> Pelo: how do I mount / ?
[03:04] <clearze1> Clarrisa_2008:  my connection dropped for a sec. Did you paste that?
[03:04] <Sh3r1ff> Taime1_: use aslamixer to turn up the volume
[03:04] <Pelo> PedroDaGr8, well not knowing what is wrong  will recommend the alternate install cd  , it is text based and should install with no problems
[03:05] <Sh3r1ff> Taime1_: alsamixer
[03:05] <X_M4n> 7.04
[03:05] <Clarrisa_2008> I haven't pasted anything, I have to type it all in here...because I can't connect to the box because of it not seeing the network
[03:05] <PedroDaGr8> I'll post in the forum, and if I get no replys I think I will do that
[03:05] <Clarrisa_2008> clearze1, I haven't pasted anything, I have to type it all in here...because I can't connect to the box because of it not seeing the network
[03:05] <Clarrisa_2008> clearze1, hang on
[03:05] <rabiddachshund> can someone help me with sudo?
[03:05] <clearze1> Clarrisa_2008: k
[03:05] <dkkong> Okay since I can't print with my printer can I at least use it as a scanner?
[03:05] <Pelo> wastedfluid,  it should be mounted but   if not     sudo mkdir /media/HDD               sudo mount /dev/hda*   /media/HDD
[03:05] <X_M4n> i burned knoppix on a cd yet my cursor is invisble
[03:05] <Pelo> rabiddachshund, how can we help
[03:06] <greyfrog> rabiddachshund: what is your sudo question?
[03:06] <wastedfluid> writing that down, Pelo.
[03:06] <Tarkus> anyone know if i want to be able to edit the files on my webserver (/var/www/) directly with an IDE. i need to 'chown -R mike /var/www' right? or is it not a good idea to do that to /var/www/ (by default /var/www/ is owned by root)..
[03:06] <Sh3r1ff> !sudo | rabiddachshund
[03:06] <ubotu> rabiddachshund: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[03:06] <rabiddachshund> It's recognizing my password when I use sudo visudo, but not just 'su'
[03:06] <Taime1_> Sh3r1ff: that didnt help at all...
[03:06] <Pelo> wastedfluid,  are you on dapper ?
[03:06] <greyfrog> rabiddachshund: su would try to use the superuser ("root")
[03:06] <wastedfluid> 6.06 LTS
[03:07] <rabiddachshund> is that not the same thing?
[03:07] <Sh3r1ff> Taime1_: what's your sound card? and do you have more than one soundcard?
[03:07] <greyfrog> rabiddachshund: nope
[03:07] <cheeseboy> wats mplayer option to strech fullscreen?
[03:07] <rabiddachshund> doh
[03:07] <greyfrog> rabiddachshund: su = switch user
[03:07] <Pelo> wastedfluid, yeah that is dapper, mention it when asking for help in the future
[03:07] <greyfrog> rabiddachshund: usually used to switch to root
[03:07] <Taime1_> Sh3r1ff: just onboard sound
[03:07] <wastedfluid> okay.
[03:07] <Pelo> cheeseboy,   ask in #mplayer
[03:07] <wastedfluid> so, sudo mkdir /media/hdd ... sudo mount /dev/hda4/ /media/hd
[03:07] <wastedfluid> ?
[03:08] <Pelo> wastedfluid,   /media/hdd
[03:08] <Sh3r1ff> Taime1_: u selected that card as the default sound card and check if it is supported?
[03:08] <LDZ420> is there a command that will allow me to check my current video resolution setting?
[03:08] <greyfrog> rabiddachshund: pretty much use sudo whenever you'd usually use su
[03:08] <Sh3r1ff> !hardware | Taime1_
[03:08] <ubotu> Taime1_: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[03:08] <rabiddachshund> so when I use su, it asks for a password. the password for my user account and the root account are the same.
[03:08] <jamis> I've tried a fair number of the "answers" in the ubuntu forums for fixing this error with DRI: Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[03:08] <Pelo> the second one ,   it doesnT' matter wht you name the mkdir dir but they must match in both command
[03:08] <wastedfluid> Pelo:  one last question.  I want to add the leftover 1.8 from the extra swap to my ext3 partition.   Do I have to unmount it to resize it..?
[03:08] <rabiddachshund> but it says failed authentication
[03:08] <jamis> has anything changed since those posts were created
[03:08] <Pelo> wastedfluid, scond one ,   it doesnT' matter wht you name the mkdir dir but they must match in both command
[03:08] <Taime1_> Sh3r1ff: its just an intel  945 chipset
[03:09] <X_M4n> i have an xps 400  dual core, am i able to create a new partition with this version of ubunta without it screwing up winblose?
[03:09] <greyfrog> rabiddachshund: ack, not sure then :(  check to make sure root password is the same I guess..
[03:09] <Sh3r1ff> wastedfluid: if you do it with live cd, no problem to unmount it
[03:09] <wastedfluid> ok
[03:09] <wastedfluid> i'll brb
[03:09] <Pelo> wastedfluid,  hold on let me have another look at the gparted pick
[03:09] <rabiddachshund> how would I do that?
[03:09] <Taime1_> X_M4n: be sure to defrag your win partition first
[03:09] <wastedfluid> thanks so much man
[03:09] <wastedfluid> you guys are freaking great
[03:09] <wastedfluid> ok
[03:09] <Pelo> we realy are
[03:09] <wastedfluid> http://www.jbodystreet.com/gparted.png <-- Pelo
[03:09] <greyfrog> rabiddachshund: system > admin > users and groups
[03:10] <Sh3r1ff> Taime1_: did you ever get sound out of it?
[03:10] <greyfrog> rabiddachshund: should be able to set the root password there
[03:10] <Pelo> wastedfluid,  hold on I thnk your mout command was wrong
[03:10] <Taime1_> oh yeah
[03:10] <wastedfluid> o
[03:10] <Taime1_> Sh3r1ff: yes, in windows
[03:10] <jamis> wastedfluid: if you have a cd drive... gparted has a nice bootable partitioner live cd...
[03:10] <dkkong_> Is there a way to make sane see my scanner if it doesn't detect it under root?
[03:10] <rabiddachshund> ok, i'm there but I don't see root
[03:10] <rabiddachshund> doh.
[03:10] <navets> where is my autostart folder
[03:10] <Pelo> wastedfluid,     sudo mount /dev/hd3 /media/hdd
[03:10] <jamis> better then partition magic imo
[03:10] <Sh3r1ff> Taime1_: windows isn't much of use in ubuntu ;)
[03:10] <wastedfluid> oh yeah
[03:10] <wastedfluid> good looking, Pelo.
[03:11] <greyfrog> rabiddachshund: what version ubuntu you using?
[03:11] <wastedfluid> lol.. my dumbass probably wouldn't have figured that out
[03:11] <rabiddachshund> dapper
[03:11] <wastedfluid> ok
[03:11] <wastedfluid> I'm going to attempt to fix this
[03:11] <wastedfluid> brb
[03:11] <mayorbuttes> Anyone able to point me in the direction of how to trouble shoot an ircd-hybrid settup?
[03:11] <mayorbuttes> I can't seem to connect to mine.
[03:11] <greyfrog> rabiddachshund: ack, I'm using feisty....  this could be a difference between dapper and feisty
[03:11] <Pelo> wastedfluid,  for the resizing ,  you 'll need to  delete the hda4 partiton , resize the hda3 then make a new hda4 and hda5 nested in that
[03:11] <Pelo> damit
[03:12] <jamis> I followed the instructions here: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide and they didn't work at all (they made the situation worse...)
[03:12] <rabiddachshund> I just reset the password on root. brb I'm going to try it now
[03:12] <Sh3r1ff> Taime1_: when you test your sound in system, preferences, sound, do you hear something?
[03:12] <jamis> i'm still getting Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[03:12] <Taime1_> Sh3r1ff: no, sir
[03:13] <mayorbuttes> jamis: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=277294
[03:13] <mayorbuttes> Try there?
[03:13] <Pelo> jamis,  did you do a forum search for your error msg ?
[03:13] <jamis> Pelo, yes and none of the stuff seemed to work... it seems my only option is to install the official drivers..
[03:13] <rabiddachshund> sweet! I'm in.
[03:13] <Sh3r1ff> Taime1_: try setting sound to alsa, and kill the esd and restart the gdm, let me know if you get sound then
[03:13] <greyfrog> rabiddachshund: good deal :) have fun man!
[03:13] <Taime1_> Sh3r1ff: kill esd?

[03:14] <hyperactivecrond> does ps3 ubuntu have working sound drivers yet?
[03:14] <Sh3r1ff> Pelo: feeling good today he? ;)
[03:15] <mayorbuttes> jamis: So alot of the stuff can still be applied.
[03:15] <rammy_> i checked out printer settings but there appears to be no settings i can change
[03:15] <Taime1_> Sh3r1ff: still no sound
[03:15] <jamis> mayorbuttes: yes.... but the only help that forum post seems to give is the stuff I've already tried
[03:15] <rammy_> that is change to print from tray
[03:15] <mayorbuttes> jamis: Alright, gotcha.

[03:15] <cookie> hope someone can help me with the login problem
[03:16] <Pelo> Sh3r1ff, it fells nice to be appreciated sometimes ,  it doesnt, seem to happen often enough
[03:16] <Pelo> cookie,  which login problem ?
[03:16] <Clarrisa_2008> clearze1, I donly pasted in the portion that talked about the ethernet controller, because I have to type everything in... I can't paste from that machine as it's not on the internet...
[03:16] <Sh3r1ff> Pelo: not often enough, that's true ;)
[03:16] <cookie> as I always had to login twice before it is successful.
[03:16] <quad3d> DARKGuy, yea, vi
[03:16] <Sh3r1ff> Taime1_: try playing a sound file on terminal and see if you get an error
[03:16] <rabiddachshund> crap. one last thing.
[03:16] <DARKGuy> quad3d: vi is for astronauts, I need something user-friendly y'know, something I don't have to read a 30-page-manual just to see how can I open a file :P
[03:16] <Clarrisa_2008> Clearze1, what is weird to me is why the driver says it's a linksys, instead of smc, but maybe that is just a generic driver for this SMC ethernet card?
[03:17] <jamis> I want to get video acceleration working on my radeon x1600 card. I can get into xorg just fine but it doesn't seem as if the fglrx driver is  being loaded correctly
[03:17] <Pelo> cookie,  ok that is a strange one any special msg between logins ?
[03:17] <rammy_> i went to settings and lasterjet 3050 settings -> paper-> source say Tray 1
[03:17] <rabiddachshund> now that I've installed firefox 2 in the right directory, how do I pin it to the applications menu and thus the top bar?
[03:17] <jamis> though... I've put all of the "correct" configs in xorg.conf
[03:17] <cookie> nothing
[03:17] <Pelo> rammy_,  try another one
[03:17] <cookie> on the gdm login window.
[03:17] <Taime1_> Sh3r1ff: no error when playing this .ogg file, bbut no sound either
[03:17] <cookie> I typed in a user name/password hit enter
[03:17] <Pelo> rammy_,  it is possible that tray one is the handfeed, and try two the actual tray or somethign silly
[03:17] <clearze1> Clarrisa_2008: one sec

[03:18] <Sh3r1ff> Taime1_: you sure your speakers are connected? ;) cause i can't seem to figure out why yu have no sound
[03:18] <jamis> mayorbuttes: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide  says that the Composite extension is enabled by default and the fglrx drivers don't support it. But when I disable the composite extension as the page says, my screen goes to poo
[03:18] <Taime1_> Sh3r1ff: its just the laptop speakers
[03:18] <quad3d> or for i in `grep OLD_TXT FILE`;do perl -pi -e 's/${i}/NEW_TXT/';done

[03:19] <DARKGuy> quad3d: that's sad, when we're in the graphic era and we can have GUI apps :P
[03:19] <quad3d> %s with /g do whole file searching/replacing
[03:19] <mayorbuttes> jamis: Blah, you're an eyecandy buff =p
[03:19] <jamis> mayorbuttes: I may just install the stuff directly from ati and ignore the "ubuntu way"
[03:19] <aoirthoir> jamis,  it is experimental. My screen went to poo also so i stopped using it
[03:19] <DARKGuy> quad3d: wait, I don't get it...
[03:19] <jamis> mayorbuttes: even the aterms are messing up
[03:19] <Pelo> Sh3r1ff,  can you take over cookie with his loggin problem ?
[03:19] <DARKGuy> quad3d: you don't know any GUI app? something human-usable?
[03:20] <jamis> alright

[03:20] <Pelo> Taime1_,   desktop or laptop ?
[03:20] <cookie> to get back to the gdm login window.
[03:21] <Taime1_> Pelo: laptop, sir
[03:21] <hyperactivecrond> dude that's not spanish either
[03:21] <cookie> then try the second time, and it will work.
[03:21] <jamis> mayorbuttes: yar I've never had good luck with it either
[03:21] <Pelo> Taime1_, no need to call me sir I just need to catch up
[03:21] <GenNMX> Hmmm, could a Pentium 4 2.6GHz be better for a medium-heavy load server then Dual P3 500MHzs?
[03:21] <mayorbuttes> jamis: Best to stick with nvidia (for now, anyway)
[03:21] <Sh3r1ff> cookie: what's your problem again?
[03:21] <clearze1> Clarrisa_2008: You said it was working in the earlier versions of ubuntu correct?
[03:21] <Taime1_> Pelo: it wasnt really a formality
[03:21] <mayorbuttes> jamis: but that doesn't help you, and I do appologize for that
[03:21] <concept10> GenNMX, yes
[03:21] <chinomoreno> ppl
[03:21] <chinomoreno> anyone has a vaio here?
[03:21] <hyperactivecrond> yes chinomoreno ?
[03:22] <cookie> my problem is I could not login with the first attempt.
[03:22] <Clarrisa_2008> clearze, yes, it worked for like months and months no problems until after the apt-get upgrade
[03:22] <hyperactivecrond> no i don't *
[03:22] <jamis> mayorbuttes: not a problem.  Bad cards?

[03:23] <mayorbuttes> jamis: christ. That's some dirty rotten luck
[03:23] <Sh3r1ff> cookie: is your keyboard layout correct and you sure you type username and password right?
[03:23] <ub12> Is there a way to get an appointment to pop up at a predetermined time?
[03:23] <Sh3r1ff> cookie: last session script?
[03:23] <cookie> yes, the keyboard is fine.

[03:25] <ryanakca> how can I /easily/ create a chroot so that a user can use two apps: screen and irssi.
[03:25] <Sh3r1ff> ub12: run through the settings of the calender, you'll see it somewhere there
[03:25] <Clarrisa_2008> hyperactivecrond, I had ubuntu 6.06.1 installed as a lamp server.  no gui, then I decide for some dumb ass reason to upgrade to 6.1 edgy, and after I ran the apt-get update, and the apt-get upgrade, everything seemed to pull down and install, although I didn't get a "upgrade complete, reboot now" message, it just left me at the prompt.  so I rebooted, and now I can't connect to the network... My ethernet card is stuck with t
[03:25] <Clarrisa_2008> he <IP_ADDRESS> ip address
[03:25] <mayorbuttes> Any idea if 1.) Ubuntu server blocks 6665-6669 port-wise by default, and, if so, 2.) Any easy shmeezy way to get around this
[03:25] <ub12> Sh3r1ff, ok I will look
[03:25] <hyperactivecrond> Clarrisa_2008, does dmesg recognize your eth0?
[03:26] <ryanakca> mayorbuttes: use port 8001
[03:26] <cookie> hello
[03:26] <mayorbuttes> ryanakca: Will do. Any reason for that?
[03:26] <Sh3r1ff> cookie: what were you saying about that session script?
[03:26] <Clarrisa_2008> hyperactivecrond, I don't know.  how do I check it to find it that line?   I get a red FAIL message now when it reboots but it goes by so fast, that I can't wwrite it down.  and I don't know what I"m looking for in dmesg
[03:26] <ryanakca> mayorbuttes: it's a fix to an irc DCC exploit
[03:27] <fester225> What is the name of the file manager in Feisty?
[03:27] <hyperactivecrond> Clarrisa_2008, open a terminal.
[03:27] <clearze1> Clarrisa_2008: Your best bet would be to get a livecd of the earlier verison boot it up then run lsmod and see what module is running your ethernet device also lspci will give you more information about the chipset after you have the correct driver. The only other option I know is to compile drivers from source but I'm not sure they are what you would need.
[03:27] <hyperactivecrond> fester225, in GNOME: Nautilus
[03:27] <cookie> i said, it might have to do with session script
[03:27] <cookie> but I dont know how to fix it.

[03:29] <hyperactivecrond> Clarrisa_2008, .. yes. Apparently your kernel doesn't see your ethernet controller.
[03:29] <Sh3r1ff> cookie: yes
[03:29] <jamis> aoirthoir: :( oooook
[03:29] <hyperactivecrond> Clarrisa_2008, you probably SHOULD boot off the livecd
[03:30] <hyperactivecrond> and run 'lsmod' to see what modules are loaded

[03:43] <james_M> same issue
[03:43] <Sh3r1ff> vbabiy: use debian for your server ;)
[03:43] <joyride> helo

[03:44] <Pelo> mlocker, do you mean it fails on fixing ?
[03:44] <vbabiy> Sh3r1ff: what is the difference?
[03:44] <mlocker> yes
[03:44] <freakazoid0223> james_M, xchat or xchat-gnome?
[03:44] <Pelo> mlocker, are you using regular cd or re-writable cd ?
[03:45] <ryanakca> mayorbuttes: dunno, sorry... not my area of expertise... have you asked in the IRC daemon's help channel?
[03:45] <mlocker> regular cd
[03:45] <Sh3r1ff> vbabiy: ubuntu is debian based, but for a server, you want as few as packages installed on your machine
[03:45] <mayorbuttes> ryanakca: I have not. I suppose I should do that, eh/
[03:45] <jake> I'm trying to install Mediawiki on Ubuntu 6.06

[03:45] <jake> Should I be here or #mediawiki?

[03:45] <jake> Pelo: thanks
[03:45] <puff> Frogzoo: mii-diag?
[03:46] <Pelo> jake just general insall instructions   #mediawiki would probably be better
[03:46] <Sh3r1ff> Eleaf: every proces running in the background uses resources, resources you can better give to the service your server is running
[03:46] <vbabiy> well Sh3r1ff i am using ubuntu server
[03:46] <Eleaf> Sh3r1ff, of course, but just because it's installed doesn't mean it has to be running ;)
[03:46] <ryanakca> mayorbuttes: might get a higher quality help... good luck!
[03:46] <Sh3r1ff> vbabiy: what is your problem with the server?
[03:46] <puff> Frogzoo: Ah, mii-tool is already installed, must be part of package mii-diag.
[03:46] <jake> Pelo: I don't see mediawiki
[03:46] <juju>  any websites for help with partitioning two sata drives raid1?
[03:46] <Pelo> jake,  check on their site for info about a help channel
[03:47] <jake> I just need help with the last step

[03:47] <vbabiy> Sh3r1ff: well i don't have much experience with linux server and i would like to move my window 2003 server to ubuntu

[03:47] <jake> It says it can't use my root password
[03:47] <Sh3r1ff> vbabiy: what do you want your server to do?
[03:47] <jake> But I set up one with passwd

[03:47] <Pelo> mlocker,  I do not know , I have never seen that problem before
[03:48] <Sh3r1ff> vbabiy: yes
[03:48] <Pelo> mlocker,  what is your native language ?

[03:51] <puff> Frogzoo: htop?  That's some funky version of top?
[03:51] <scoobydoo28139> Can someone tell me how to get my tv card up running?
[03:51] <mayorbuttes> ryanakca: You the man. Thanks sir.

[03:52] <Frogzoo> puff: yep
[03:52] <Clarrisa_2008> is there a way to load the the desktop version of ubuntu, just to get it all configured, and then after you are satisifed, disable all of the resource hogging GUI so that it will perform better as a day to day server?
[03:52] <gonnaeatthat> pel what about on a server for my website just use ssh terminal and delete?
[03:52] <Pelo> scoobydoo28139, check the forum for you tvcard model andnumber
[03:52] <nomasteryoda|w> scoobydoo28139, what card? bttv?
[03:52] <Slasher> hey, i had to reinstall windows and not grub is gone, what's the fastest way to reinstall it?
[03:52] <puff> Frogzoo: I generally always have firefox, emacs, and terminal running.  Often have rhythmbox.
[03:52] <puff> And of course X.
[03:52] <nomasteryoda|w> Slasher, boot from live cd
[03:52] <GrueTamer> Slasher: a good ol grub-install (hd0) in the terminal
[03:53] <cookie> hello

[03:53] <GrueTamer> from the livecd
[03:53] <Slasher> that gave me an error, sec
[03:53] <cookie> just reboot but it still has the same problem with the login
[03:53] <Sh3r1ff> cookie: it worked?
[03:53] <Sh3r1ff> hmm
[03:53] <cookie> unfortunately, not!
[03:53] <puff> Firefox is a pig, of course, but it always has been.  Nothing else really consumes a significant fraction.

[03:56] <Pelo> Slasher,  I think at the end of the first links there are instrutctions for a full reisntall , your best bet
[03:56] <wastedfluid> Okay.  So I delete hda5, merged the partitions(hda5+hda6) and edited Fstab.  The reason I merged hda5(swap) + hda6(new swap) - was because I couldn't add it to my ex3 extention.. it would only let me add it to my extended, or merge the linux swap partitions
[03:56] <wastedfluid> so Now I have a 4gb swap :(
[03:56] <Clarrisa_2008> fuck
[03:57] <mayorbuttes> wastedfluid: Have fun running<PHONE_NUMBER>000 terminals.

[03:59] <AshyisMe> is there some way to upgrade ubuntu onto an existing install?

[04:03] <kazol> I think I have to install the grub bootloader, how to do this?
[04:03] <Toma-> cookie: weird! have you been messing with permissions at all in your home dir?

Is there a way to do this within Ubuntu? (I was not successful mounting the md0-1)
[04:06] <Oldgeezer2> trying to install a fx 5200 video card, when I put it in it gives me an x-server failed screen at boot, so I got the drivers from the nvidia site but the installation instructions are kinda vague??
[04:07] <Toma-> Pelo: help is help :)
[04:07] <nomasteryoda|w> Oldgeezer2, try "sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx"
[04:07] <cookie> Toma: I only pasted here.
[04:07] <puff> Frogzoo: Can you clarify your comment about mii-tool?
[04:07] <Pelo> Oldgeezer2, if you have something specific you need us to clarify just ask

[04:10] <enigma_> pelo: i was looking for another opinion
[04:10] <kazol> kitche: any ideas?
[04:10] <atarinox> any idea why i can connect to my wireless network just fine when it's secured, but when it's unencrypted I can't? I'm on feisty w/ a RTL8180 chipset. can't find any info online
[04:10] <Fezzler> Swat keeps asking for Authenification Required?
[04:10] <kitche> kazol: not really never heard of grub being installed to both hd's since it should be only on one hd
[04:11] <Toma-> cookie: kde right?
[04:11] <kazol> kitche: I'm using software RAID-1.
[04:11] <kitche> kazol: your point being grub has nothing to do with RAID
[04:11] <kazol> kitche: How do I make either HD boot by itself then?
[04:12] <kitche> kazol: umm select the drive in grub
[04:12] <swatF1RESTORM> what would cause me to not be able to play video files across the network?
[04:12] <kazol> kitche: how? I'm a newbie.
[04:12] <HorizonXP> hey, where can I ask for a critical bug to be fixed?
[04:12] <sidim> Hi ... Anybody using Joost
[04:12] <Pelo> kazol,  a newbie with a raid array ?
[04:13] <kazol> Pelo: yes, I cannot make a HD boot by itself.
[04:13] <kazol> Pelo: Newbie to Linux, know a lot about m$.
[04:13] <Pelo> HorizonXP,   lanuchpad https://launchpad.net/
[04:14] <Pelo> kazol,  I don'T know anything about raid myself which is why your newbei comment made me look up
[04:14] <HorizonXP> Thanks Pelo. Would you consider erasing files off a USB key during shutdown a critical bug?
[04:14] <Sh3r1ff> HorizonXP: unmount the usb drive before shutting down is a good bug fix ;)
[04:14] <kitche> HorizonXP: you sure the files are on the USB key since ubuntu doesn't write to usb right away
[04:14] <Toma-> cookie: kde?
[04:15] <Fezzler> anyone know swat?
[04:15] <Pelo> HorizonXP,  if the files were freshly move to the usb drive and you did not eject the drive before shutting down I would say you made a booboo and its, not a bug
[04:15] <Pelo> Fezzler,  I can honestly say I know squat about swat
[04:15] <kazol> Anyone here know how to make a hard drive under RAID bootable by itself??
[04:16] <swatF1RESTORM> what would cause me to not be able to play video files across the network? I get the following error "There is no input plugin to handle the location of this movie"
[04:16] <Noodlesgc> Can anyone help me, when i enable the nvidia-glx-new my computer only boots to command line, is there any way to enable it without this happening?
[04:16] <Armageddon00> How do i find my soundcard's name and then find a driver for it?
[04:16] <kitche> Fezzler: what do you need to know about swat bah he left
[04:16] <kazol> Armageddon00: run "sudo lspci"
[04:16] <sivik> ok, i have a hd plugged in from an external drive, it picks up when i turn the device on in dmesg, but it says when i try to fdisk "unable to read /dev/sdb"
[04:16] <sivik> does that mean the hd is bad?
[04:16] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: raid is there for linking drives together, booting just one drive isn't the purpose of raid
[04:17] <cookie> Toma: sorry, just got back.
[04:17] <cookie> Toma: no i use gnome desktop
[04:17] <kitche> sivik: you don't fsck the drive you fsck the partition unless you have no partitions
[04:17] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: I'm setting up RAID-1. What if a HD fails?
[04:17] <Pelo> Noodlesgc,  consider asking the ppl in #beryl and #ubuntu-effect they have more need for xgl sfuff then the general ubuntu population
[04:17] <sivik> fdisk, not fsck
[04:17] <cookie> Toma: before i used to install all of them. kde, xubuntu and ubuntustudio
[04:17] <sivik> fdisk /dev/sdb
[04:17] <sivik> Unable to read /dev/sdb
[04:17] <cookie> Toma: then remove it back to gnome unbuntu
[04:17] <cookie> Toma:feisty
[04:17] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: then you have the other, raid 1 means hd 2 is a backup of hd1
[04:18] <Toma-> cookie: that might be the problem
[04:18] <jimmy-james> i added my user to the disk group today, "sudo usermod -G disk jimmy", but now i cannot use sudo, why not?
[04:18] <Pelo> sivik,  isthe drive unmounted ? I think you need to unmount it to rund fdisk
[04:18] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: How do I make either HD boot? I did this successfully in Windows Server 2003.
[04:18] <kitche> jimmy-james: you took your user out of the admin group probably
[04:18] <Toma-> cookie: try this, "sudo apt-get remove --purge kde-guidance"
[04:18] <cookie> Toma: really, why?
[04:19] <sivik> its not mounted anywhere
[04:19] <Sh3r1ff> kazol, hd in raid 1 and ubuntu installed on it?
[04:19] <Toma-> cookie: you have a KDE startup process still trying to login
[04:19] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: Yes, 2 HDs with software RAID-1.
[04:19] <kitche> sivik: reread what I said you can't fsck a drive you can fsck a partition on the drive though
[04:19] <sivik> i'm not fscking it
[04:19] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: installed ubuntu on it and can you boot ubuntu?
[04:19] <cookie> Toma: not, i have removed it all.
[04:19] <Pelo> jimmy-james, keep in mind I know nothign about this but does user jimmy have any sudo access ?
[04:20] <cookie> Toma: now only ubuntu gnome based
[04:20] <sivik> kitche: why don't u reread what i said about the fact that i'm talking about fdisk and not fsck
[04:20] <Toma-> cookie: you didnt purge it did you?
[04:20] <sivik> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22372/
[04:20] <kitche> sivik: then means that it's not /dev/sdb then
[04:20] <cookie> Toma: yes.
[04:20] <sivik> well, according to the dmesg, it is
[04:20] <kitche> sivik: what does cfdisk tell you about it
[04:20] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: only when the 2 HDs are in place. Take any one out and I get the error msg "waiting for root filesystem."
[04:20] <Toma-> yes you did? or yes you didnt?
[04:20] <sivik> thats what i just posted it
[04:21] <cookie> Toma: i just did the command you told.
[04:21] <Toma-> cookie: ok
[04:21] <cookie> Toma:0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[04:21] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: that's because the 2 drives are linked with raid, you need both disks in to make it work
[04:21] <sivik> i have three hd's right now and cfdisk only picks up one, which isnt' the one i'm loading from
[04:21] <cookie> Toma: that is the result
[04:21] <jimmy-james> kitche: it appears i did, i added myself back to the admin group, are there any other groups i should add myself to?
[04:21] <kitche> sivik: but anyways hard to help you when you don't say people's named
[04:21] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: if you want just one drive remove the raid
[04:21] <Toma-> cookie: rightio. now do this "sudo rm /etc/X11/Xsession.d/40guidance-displayconfig_restore"
[04:21] <sivik> kitche: ok, i didn't the first time but whatever
[04:22] <jimmy-james> Pelo: i just added myself back to the admin group so i can sudo again
[04:22] <kitche> sivik: so cfdisk /dev/sdb says teh same thing
[04:22] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: I want the 2 HDs constantly updated, and if 1 fails, the other will take its place.
[04:22] <sivik> fatal error: cannot read disk drive
[04:22] <Frogzoo> puff: do both devices support 100Meg ?
[04:22] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: leave themin raid 1, put both disksin and boot
[04:22] <cookie> Toma: I just did that.
[04:22] <Pelo> jimmy-james,  glad I could help
[04:22] <cookie> Toma: now what?
[04:23] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: if one fails the raid will kick in
[04:23] <swatF1RESTORM> what would cause me to not be able to play video files across the network? I get the following error "There is no input plugin to handle the location of this movie"
[04:23] <Toma-> cookie: try logging in again.
[04:23] <jimmy-james> what groups is a user default added to, when you install ubuntu?
[04:23] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: But I simulated failure by disconnecting one and booting, and it did not.
[04:23] <kitche> jimmy-james: should be users and admin
[04:23] <freekge1> Pelo: thanks
[04:23] <cookie> Toma: Ok, will do,. and back here later. Thanks!
[04:23] <Pelo> swatF1RESTORM,  did you check the forum for the error msg ?
[04:23] <Pelo> freekge1, for what ?
[04:24] <freekge1> Pelo: dialup on and off
[04:24] <Pelo> oh
[04:24] <Toma-> cookie: it might not work, but if it doesnt come straight back here and dont run any gnome apps (apart form cxhat)
[04:24] <Toma-> *xchat
[04:24] <Pelo> freekge1,  sorry so much going on I loose track
[04:24] <yao> #join Gentoo
[04:24] <jimmy-james> kitche: thanks
[04:24] <Sh3r1ff> kazol, that's not simulating a broken disk, that's messing up the raid, if one fails, put another disk in, put it in raid and you want know the difference
[04:24] <freekge1> Pelo: it's ok.  my nick got changed logging on and off
[04:24] <Pelo> yao,   /join #...
[04:24] <cookie> ok
[04:25] <swatF1RESTORM> Pelo: I threw it in google and nothing helpful was returned
[04:25] <Pelo> freekge1,  so the dialpu thing works great , I knew it was there but I wasn,t sure that was all of it
[04:25] <xcd> hi, i've installed beryl and i can see the gem and everything in the menu bar but i can't use the beryl window manager... (metacity works).. i've read a bit about this online but there seems to be a lot of different ways people are configuring things, anyone know what i should do?
[04:25] <yao> thanks pelo, u are right
[04:25] <yao> sorry
[04:25] <Pelo> swatF1RESTORM, mplayer ?
[04:25] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: I see...So it cannot boot using 1 disk. When it fails, I should place a blank one in?
[04:25] <freekge1> Pelo: think I'll recommend user uses pon/poff on command line.  way faster

[04:25] <Feral_Kid> I have installed 7.04 server, but I can't get cups to look at the printers connected via USB... What do I need to do to get CUPS to recognize the USB printers?
[04:25] <sivik> if it says "fatal error: cannot read disk drive", does that mean the disk drive is bad
[04:26] <Pelo> freekge1,  you can make in a launcher or a little scrip
[04:26] <Pelo> make him
[04:26] <kitche> sivik: no just might be formatted bad I had a drive do that once to me had to reformat the whole thing
[04:26] <xcd> sh3: thanks
[04:26] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: yes, put another disk in and put it in the raid, then the raid will copy everything from the disk still in place to the new disk and your back in business
[04:26] <Jordan_U> Feral_Kid, System -> Administration -> Printing
[04:26] <Pelo> Jordan_U, server
[04:26] <freekge1> Pelo: launcher? sorry, I'm pretty much cli
[04:27] <Pelo> freekge1,  desktop shortcut to lanch apps
[04:27] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: Thanks, I'll try it.
[04:27] <Pelo> lauch
[04:27] <Pelo> launch
[04:27] <Pelo> damit
[04:27] <kitche> sivik: low format the drive is what I meant by formatting
[04:27] <sivik> ok, how do i do that
[04:27] <Pelo> freekge1,   right click the desktop , create launcher
[04:27] <Feral_Kid> Jordan_U> That would be correct if I were running 7.04 Desktop, but server doesn't do gnome...
[04:27] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: configuring the new disk with the raid might be tricky, but i'm sure google will help you with that
[04:28] <freekge1> Pelo:  sweet!  I'll have a look
[04:28] <swatF1RESTORM> Pelo: No. Totem-xine... from what i've seen on the forums they just switched to Totem-gstreamer but I can only get DVDs to play correctly with Totem-xine
[04:28] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: I have to configure it? So it won't automatically copy?
[04:28] <gatekeep> Hello folks, I have a problem with my Ubuntu server. Everytime its rebooted, the drive order changes. This causes the boot loader to point the kernel to a wrong or non-existant partition (i.e. /dev/sda2 is supposed to be root). My root partition is supposed to be on /dev/sda (which is supposed to be the IDE Primary Master), is there anyway to force the kernel to probe the ATA interface BEFORE the SCSI interface?
[04:29] <Pelo> swatF1RESTORM, there is a #xine  you could try asking for their advice
[04:29] <Feral_Kid> dmesg shows that there is USB in play, but CUPS doesn't see any USB devices....
[04:29] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: if you put a new in, it won't be in raid, so you have to make the raid partition and link it to the already existing raid partition on the other disk
[04:29] <sivik> gatekeep, make sure your booting them in the right order from bios
[04:29] <gatekeep> sivik: I'm 100% sure, because the boot loader DOES start.
[04:29] <swatF1RESTORM> Pelo: didn't have a clue. I'll see if I can find the answer there.
[04:29] <sivik> gatekeep, not sure then
[04:29] <sivik> i haven't ever had a problem
[04:29] <gatekeep> sivik: The kernel just seems to detect the drives in a different order each time ...
[04:29] <nomasteryoda|w> !uuid > gatekeep,
[04:29] <sivik> kitche: how do i do a low format on the drive
[04:29] <nomasteryoda|w> !uuid
[04:29] <ubotu> To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[04:29] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: But it will boot?
[04:30] <Pelo> swatF1RESTORM, I had to check , which is why I asked if it was mplayer, they hve a great channel
[04:30] <Dezine> I have a 5-button mouse and the buttons work, how can I edit what the back button does? It just left-clicks.
[04:30] <gatekeep> nomasteryoda: I'm using an IBM Intellistation which uses LILO, I wasn't aware that LILO played well with UUID's
[04:30] <nomasteryoda|w> uuid should make it so no matter which order, the drive you put in with the UUID  will boot first
[04:30] <Pelo> !mouse | Dezine
[04:30] <ubotu> Dezine: Enabling extra mouse buttons: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto  - Enabling serial mouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto
[04:30] <nomasteryoda|w> er,  hmmm
[04:30] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: if you configure the new disk with raid, otherwise it will have the same problem that there is only one disk with raid
[04:30] <gatekeep> i would be using grub
[04:30] <gatekeep> but the IBM doesn't play to well with it
[04:30] <nomasteryoda|w> me neither
[04:31] <swatF1RESTORM> Pelo: I've heard a lot of good things about mplayer. I just think it's a little out of my reach right now to configure.
[04:31] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: and raid needs at least two partitions, three if you want raid 5
[04:31] <Sh3r1ff> swatF1RESTORM: use vlc ;)
[04:31] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: But it will bypass that "waiting for root fs" message?
[04:31] <sivik> and how do i install PAM support into ubuntu
[04:31] <gatekeep> nomasteryoda|w: You're using LILO with UUID's? ... Or can I just add to the kernel append line: root=<drive UUID here>
[04:31] <Pelo> swatF1RESTORM, I don't use it much myself  but I ear it is quite versatile  that and vlc
[04:31] <taime1_> if i simply 'sudo tar xzvf<package.tar.gx>'   where does it unpack it to?
[04:31] <nomasteryoda|w> gatekeep, nope... using grub here...
[04:32] <kitche> taime1_: the directory your in when you run that command
[04:32] <nomasteryoda|w> no clue on lilo... i hate that actually
[04:32] <Oldgeezer2> back again, trying to install an fx5200 video card, tried using the sudo command to install drivers said it worked but when I plug in the card and reboot I get the ubuntu loading screen then it goes to an x windows failed to start  screen. I have the nvidia .run file on desktop if needed
[04:32] <swatF1RESTORM> Pelo: I couldn't get VLC to play DVDs. I used VLC in windows just because it played the most things out-of-the-box.
[04:32] <nomasteryoda|w> but lilo was a good man... we still miss him
[04:32] <gatekeep> nomasteryoda|w: Ok, you just made the wheels in my head start spinning, so do I, but I'm FORCED to use it...
[04:32] <taime1_> kitche: i wasnt in a directory
[04:32] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: no, for the exact same reason when there's only one diskin, raid one writes everything in double, but reads from the two disks at the same time
[04:32] <nomasteryoda|w> gatekeep, it  might work... worth a look
[04:33] <Pelo> swatF1RESTORM,  something is wrong,  I can play just about anything with all the players ,  I 'm not sure what is going on on your end but you'll need to figure it out
[04:33] <kitche> taime1_: well you most have been if not then that file would not be there
[04:33] <puff> Frogzoo: Yeah.
[04:33] <Frogzoo> puff: try 'sudo mii-tool eth0 100baseTx-FD'
[04:33] <kitche> taime1_: if you weren't in a directory then that file would not exist where you untarred it
[04:33] <defcon_> what is the easiest way to set up a ftp on ubuntu
[04:33] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: wait, so I have 2 RAID-1 disks. One breaks down, I put a blank one in?
[04:33] <Sh3r1ff> swatF1RESTORM: install libdvdcss2
[04:33] <puff> Frogzoo: Should be, one's a two-year old laptop and the other is a pc101 internet appliance, a month or two old.
[04:33] <defcon_> any easy ftpd for ubuntu?
[04:33] <Frogzoo> puff: try 'sudo mii-tool eth0 -F 100baseTx-FD'
[04:34] <noiesmo> swatF1RESTORM: check out mediubuntu add repos to your sources list and also enable universe and multiverse then you can install mplayer & codecs etc http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/index.php
[04:34] <Pelo> taime1_,  be default when you open the terminal you are in /home
[04:34] <_GateKeeper_> gah got booted
[04:34] <puff> Frogzoo: Cool.  Trying it.
[04:34] <swatF1RESTORM> Sh3r1ff: I have that installed.
[04:34] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: now you have to put raid on the new disk, don't know how exactly, but that's why google is your best friend
[04:34] <noiesmo> swatF1RESTORM: heres repo howto http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repository.php
[04:34] <shawn34> help! just got a new computer today, when I try to load the live cd, xserver crashes! how do i fix this! new pc has nvidia graphics
[04:34] <puff> Frogzoo: No output from the command.  Ping again?
[04:34] <Pelo> defcon_,  check in synaptic
[04:35] <Sh3r1ff> swatF1RESTORM: you have the gstreamer codecs installed?
[04:35] <puff> Frogzoo: Ping says destination unreachable.
[04:35] <Frogzoo> puff: aye
[04:35] <defcon_> Pelo,  ok
[04:35] <Oldgeezer2> wheee another nvidia crashes x server
[04:35] <sivik> !pam
[04:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pam - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:35] <Pelo> shawn34,  you will need to use the alternate install cd to install in txt mode then you can install the nvidia drivers
[04:35] <Sh3r1ff> Pelo: did cookie's problem get resolved?
[04:35] <Pelo> Oldgeezer2, it's not realy anyting new
[04:35] <swatF1RESTORM> Sh3r1ff: No. I couldn't get DVDs to play with Menus using gstreamer.
[04:35] <shawn34> Pelo, crap... thanks
[04:36] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: lol I have ~20 pages of printouts on my desk on how to do this...I've been trying for the past month. So adding a blank hd will bypass that "waiting for root fs" error msg?
[04:36] <Pelo> Sh3r1ff,  not that I have seen
[04:36] <Pelo> Sh3r1ff, and I haven't heard back from taime1 either
[04:36] <Sh3r1ff> swatF1RESTORM: so you have or have not the codecs installed?
[04:36] <puff> Frogzoo: Ping says destination unreachable.
[04:36] <puff> Frogzoo: Would my wireless connection be interfering with this?  Wireless is also 192.168.etc.
[04:36] <Oldgeezer2> Pelo I used the sudo for nvidia glx and I am still crashing x server when I put in the fx 5200 card any ideas?
[04:37] <Sh3r1ff> Pelo: sad day for the newbies out there if we can't help them ;)
[04:37] <Pelo> shawn34,  that is one of the oddest thank you lines ever
[04:37] <Frogzoo> puff: does ifconfig show the i/f with an ip?
[04:37] <shawn34> Pelo, lol
[04:37] <Sh3r1ff> Frogzoo: yes
[04:37] <swatF1RESTORM> Sh3r1ff: I believe so. would it be possible to play DVDs using Totem-xine if I didn't have the codecs installed?
[04:37] <ArtM> Does Ubuntu Server really boot up with Apache in place ??
[04:37] <shawn34> Pelo, do you know why xserver is crashing? its a 22in WS monitor
[04:37] <Pelo> Oldgeezer2,  I know absolutely nothing about the nvidia stuff exectp what I told shawn34  and the restricted driver thing in the admin menu
[04:37] <Sh3r1ff> swatF1RESTORM: you still need the right codecs, but you can try playing dvd's with xine

[04:38] <Pelo> shawn34,  I assume it is because it tries to find the right video driver and cant
[04:38] <Oldgeezer2> pelo restricted drvier thing? could you explain?
[04:38] <Sh3r1ff> swatF1RESTORM: but if vlc fails, i doubt xine will work, my vlc plays everything just fine
[04:38] <__mikem> Oldgeezer2, when you say crashing, do you mean, that the screen becomes a pattern of lines and you have to restart?
[04:38] <taime1> Pelo:  im trying to install ndiswrapper, but when i use the 'sudo make uninstall' command, it never returns with 'no packages to remove', which is what the tutorial says it must say in order to continue... i have run that abuot a hundred times now
[04:39] <puff> Frogzoo: Hm, this is odd... eth0 has no ip, but eth0:avah has showed up and it has a funky ip.
[04:39] <puff> Frogzoo: Not sure when it showed up.
[04:39] <swatF1RESTORM> Sh3r1ff: I can play DVDs with Totem-xine, just not VLC
[04:39] <wastrel> "feinsty"
[04:39] <Sh3r1ff> swatF1RESTORM: strange
[04:39] <Frogzoo> puff: avah arrived with feisty - not sure what it's for
[04:39] <puff> Frogzoo: Okay, when I unplug the cable eth0:avah disappears, so.
[04:39] <Pelo> Oldgeezer2,  in feisy  there is a little app that check our system and install some basic restricted drivers for some of the nvidia and ati hardware,  older models usualy,   it is in menu > system > admin > restricted drivers
[04:40] <Oldgeezer2> mikem no the ubuntu loading screen finishes, it does not go to a log in, goes to terminal screen and a funky grey screen says xserver failed to start do you want to see the log etc etc
[04:40] <Fezzler> someone was helping me last night and asked to see smb.conf or smbpasswd "shadow" - does that me he has my passwords?
[04:40] <Pelo> taime1,  you need to  make first
[04:40] <Sh3r1ff> Oldgeezer2: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:40] <Sh3r1ff> Oldgeezer2: when in terminal
[04:40] <__mikem> Oldgeezer2, okay then it aint the problem I had
[04:41] <puff> Plugged it back in, 30 or so seconds later I got a "network is connected" popup and eth0:avah shows up in ifconfig output again.
[04:41] <Pelo> taime1,   do what architecture are you running ?
[04:41] <HorizonXP> hey Pelo: What if i was editing files on it? And I had quit the applications writing to the drive, then shutdown? And why would it delete the folder that file was in?
[04:41] <swatF1RESTORM> Sh3r1ff: The problem I was asking about was viewing videos across a samba share.
[04:42] <Sh3r1ff> taime1: to installfrom source ./confgure, make then make install
[04:42] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: So will adding a spare HD bypass that error msg that prevents booting?
[04:42] <Pelo> HorizonXP,  you still need to eject for the files to be synched
[04:42] <Zambezi> mkfs -t ext3 -m 0 -r 0 What means -r 0 there?
[04:42] <Sh3r1ff> swatF1RESTORM: u have to add the samba share as network file system
[04:42] <Pelo> taime1,  what version of ubuntu are you running  x86 ?
[04:42] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: not if you don't put raid on it
[04:43] <HorizonXP> Pelo: Right, but the folder was there before I inserted the key. Why would it delete it? And shouldn't ubuntu "eject" it during shutdown?

[04:43] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: So I need to have a spare HD with RAID-1 lying around??
[04:43] <cookie> Toma: Hello, I an back.
[04:43] <HorizonXP> Pelo: It's like Ubuntu not cleanly writing to the HDD before it shuts down... it's not right
[04:44] <cookie> Toma: But unfortunately, it still does not work.
[04:44] <Pelo> HorizonXP,  here is how it works,  you're files don'T actulay get writen tothe usb device, they get cache and writtten n the background over time , unless you unmount / eject where the process is put in the foreground and thefiles get writtten imidiately
[04:44] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: you have to put raid on it when plugged in and make it work with the already existing raid
[04:44] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: just putting in a random raid 1 disk won't work
[04:44] <Toma-> cookie: ok, put a copy of /var/log/user.log up on pastebin
[04:44] <cookie> where is the pastebin?
[04:45] <cookie> Toma: can you give me the link pls?

[04:45] <Oldgeezer2> sh3r1ff should I select nvidia or nv?
[04:45] <Sh3r1ff> Oldgeezer2: i think nv
[04:45] <Toma-> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[04:45] <Sh3r1ff> Oldgeezer2: but i have an ati, so i wouldn't know really
[04:45] <HorizonXP> Pelo: Ok, that's understandable, although I don't like it... It should write to the USB device completely, not put it in the background. I mean, there's a progress bar showing that it's being copied, that should be where it's happening. But that's not the point. My point is that Ubuntu, upon shutdown, should complete that background task; not kill it
[04:45] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: How can I plug it in if I can't boot the other HD? Do I need to connect the third HD to the other IDE cable?
[04:46] <rockay> hi
[04:46] <rockay> I need helkp
[04:46] <HiddenHax> Does anyone play tremulosu and experience crashes very often?

[04:46] <Pelo> HorizonXP,  check in the forum maybe it is a feature you can enable somewhere
[04:46] <HorizonXP> Pelo: and even if it did... all that should happen is that it doesn't save my most recent changes to that file.... not delete the folder that contains it!
[04:46] <swatF1RESTORM> Sh3r1ff: There is no input plugin to handle the location of this movie - that's the error message i get.
[04:46] <rockay> I'm having trouble with a ati radeon 7000 dual head video card
[04:46] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: just connect it where the broken disk was, and boot from a live cd or so to configure it, then boot back up, but for the right procedure ask google ;)
[04:46] <Oldgeezer2> Sh3r1ff its an agp card so what is the bus identifyer?
[04:46] <rockay> can anybody help me?

[04:47] <rockay> my video card doesn't actually support linux
[04:47] <Sh3r1ff> swatF1RESTORM: and follow the instructions for the client
[04:47] <rockay> but I was wondering if there was a driver I could get
[04:48] <Sh3r1ff> swatF1RESTORM: than you will be able to play it
[04:48] <Pelo> rockay,  what video card is this ?
[04:48] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: So I can't partition it the same as the other 2 HDs using the alternate liveCD?
[04:48] <p1ls> hey how can open synaptic in console?
[04:48] <HorizonXP> Pelo: I have no idea either, that's what i'm trying to find out. I managed to recover the files using Photorec and testdisk, so that's not the issue either. I'm just trying to determine how it happened, and whether it's a bug or not
[04:48] <shrimants> i am on a Dell Inspiron 9300. i wanted to fix the Alps touchpad, which right now is being finicky (over reactive clicking, no user preferences, randomly moves the mouse while typing).
[04:48] <rockay> ati radeon 7000ve
[04:48] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: nope, you only have to do it if one breaks

[04:50] <cookie> can I directly send you the file?
[04:50] <cookie> thru. this xchat?
[04:50] <uNoodles> throw my desktop out too
[04:50] <Toma-> cookie: nope, sorry
[04:50] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: But I cannot boot and access any HD-it says it's in use.
[04:50] <nme> Well, it is not going to go very far with this stupid wire attatched to it!!!
[04:50] <Pelo> rockay,  ahh you need the altenate install cd ,  it is text based
[04:50] <RyanRyan52>  this is more of a general computers question but you ppl ara smart so ill ask you. What I'm trying to do is somehow format one of my computers HD then transfer files on to it. It currently has no OS (it has files from a failed linux install, linux never liked that computer). What I'm trying to do is put grub on it to connect to my tftp server to test my OS im making. I know how to install grub I just dont no how i can format
[04:50] <RyanRyan52> it and copy the files to it without installing an OS and without a livecd (linux liveCDs also hate my computer)

[04:50] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: which hd you're talking about?
[04:50] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: I could not even reinstall! I had to dBan for 1 hour. I reinstalled and dBanned 4 times already this week trying to get RAID to work.
[04:50] <nme> it would work much better if I could get wifi working ;)
[04:51] <shrimants> ah

[04:51] <neoice> is "apt-get install phpmyadmin" not the correct package for phpmyadmin?

[04:54] <cookie> Toma: here is the link: http://pastebin.ca/508637

[04:54] <taime1> i installed ndiswrapper, but i still have no wireless, can someone help me get it working?
[04:54] <marshall> my file select dialog always shows hidden folders, how do i make it hide hidden folders?
[04:54] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: That the HDs are in use-I have to permanently erase them just to install.
[04:54] <shrimants> sh3r1ff, he cant cuz he doesnt have the driver installed. am i correct nme?
[04:54] <Sh3r1ff> taime1: you need the windows driver to work with ndiswrapper
[04:54] <nme> i need the driver for the button....
[04:54] <Madpilot> marshall, right-click, uncheck "Show Hidden"
[04:55] <quaal> ping6 is the command to ping ipv6 address?
[04:55] <nme> yes
[04:55] <taime1> i installed the driver
[04:55] <nme> i tink
[04:55] <Pelo> I'm out guys, g'night and good luck
[04:55] <taime1> the card is recognized, but my card cant see connections
[04:55] <uNoodles> can anyone help me, i cant get my gmplayer to play dvd's
[04:55] <shrimants> nme, if u have 7.04 installed, boot into it, hardwire the connection to get online, and then try different thing
[04:55] <shrimants> s
[04:56] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: erase them completely, set up the raid, and once the raid is configured, you can't change an existing raid partion, unless you erase it again
[04:56] <nme> uh... how you think im online right now shrimants?
[04:56] <nme> magic?
[04:56] <uNoodles> i installed every dvd package
[04:56] <kitche> !dvd | uNoodles:
[04:56] <ubotu> uNoodles:: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[04:56] <quaal> connect: Network is unreachable
[04:56] <quaal> why ?
[04:56] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: but it is possible, to link another raid partition to an already existing one
[04:56] <quaal> do i need to enable ipv6 or something?
[04:56] <nme> cuz you would be right in assuming so ;)
[04:56] <shrimants> nme, you are in ubuntu right now?
[04:56] <taime1> Sh3r1ff: the card is recognized, but my card cant see connections
[04:56] <nme> yes
[04:56] <shrimants> the try this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Ndiswrapper_for_Broadcom_43xx_wireless_chipset
[04:56] <shrimants> what have u got to lose
[04:56] <Sh3r1ff> taime1: what does iwconfig give you?
[04:56] <nme> no more windblows on me laptop
[04:57] <jimmythegeek> any vmware pro's?  I am installing 6.06.1 as a guest and install hangs at file 30 of 'select and install software' step (toward the end)
[04:57] <shrimants> ouch. first mistake right there
[04:57] <jimmythegeek> nme: congrats
[04:57] <Toma-> cookie: do you by chance have a partition with /home on it?
[04:57] <taime1> Sh3r1ff: a lot
[04:57] <nme> I do vmware in windows...
[04:57] <Sh3r1ff> taime1: you get wlan0?
[04:57] <taime1> Sh3r1ff: no
[04:57] <nme> congrats on what?
[04:57] <cookie> Toma: what do you mean?
[04:58] <jimmythegeek> nme:'no more winblows'
[04:58] <Sh3r1ff> taime1: then the driver isn't properly configured
[04:58] <cookie> Toma: I do have 4 partitions on one hard drive.
[04:58] <nme> oh
[04:58] <Sh3r1ff> taime1: you placed the firmware in /lib/firmware?
[04:58] <Toma-> cookie: ok
[04:58] <nme> well, still have to use it at work and on my desktop...
[04:58] <cookie> Toma: and one of these is ubuntu.
[04:58] <taime1> um... no
[04:58] <idefine> i do i place an already running command into the background?
[04:58] <shrimants> nme, try what the link i sent says. if it doesnt work then continue whining
[04:58] <idefine> how do i*
[04:58] <nme> getting the wifi driver is not whatn i need help with
[04:59] <nme> i need help with geting the card "on" so that the drivers will work
[04:59] <idefine> without freezing it
[04:59] <bruenig> idefine, ctrl + z
[04:59] <Sh3r1ff> jimmythegeek: sure it is a vmware problem?
[04:59] <taime1> Sh3r1ff: the tutorial only had me blacklist some firmware
[04:59] <shrimants> if u install the driver, the wifi will work
[04:59] <nme> .....
[04:59] <idefine> bruenig: is it possible to do it without freezing it?
[04:59] <wastrel> ctrl-z suspends the running process, it won't keep running
[04:59] <jimmythegeek> Sh3r1ff: the md5 on the iso checks out
[04:59] <bruenig> hmmm
[04:59] <nme> no, cuz the card is not ON.. i have a button to turn it on and off
[04:59] <nme> it wont work in windows unless I have some acer crap installed
[04:59] <shrimants> also, try going into your BIOS. there will probably be a setting to start the computer with wifi turned on.
[04:59] <Sh3r1ff> jimmythegeek: tried installing something els in vmware?
[05:00] <nme> i can have the broadcom drivers installed, but it wont work in windows....
[05:00] <wastrel> run it in screen and detach
[05:00] <jimmythegeek> Sh3r1ff: got about 8 vms in various places.  Gonna try on another vm host.
[05:00] <Sh3r1ff> taime1: you need to rename some windows driver files and put them in /lib/firmware if i remember right
[05:00] <wiseelben> how would I copy a file from a remote server to my current folder using scp?
[05:00] <shrimants> can someone help me configure alps touchpad?
[05:00] <Sh3r1ff> but then again, not a fan of ndiswrapper
[05:01] <Sh3r1ff> jimmythegeek: what's the host?
[05:01] <taime1> well, i dont know how else to get wireless
[05:01] <shrimants> nme, restart comp, boot into BIOS, try to have the wifi turned on automatically at startup
[05:01] <Sh3r1ff> taime1: is the hardwaresupported?
[05:01] <jimmythegeek> sh3r1ff: ubuntu 6.06 server
[05:01] <taime1> of course not
[05:01] <daylighter> I have a microsoft sidewinder gamepad, and I'm having problems getting it working
[05:02] <Toma-> cookie: im sorry, ive got to run :( in the long run, re-installing would be the easiest way to solve your problem, but im sure theres just soem residual config left over. try using synaptic to find the "Remove (residualconfig)" packages in the Status section
[05:02] <Toma-> cookie: cya and good luck!
[05:02] <nme> ... think i tried that a few times.. didnt work....       here is the thing.. I know i saw a guide on how to get it to work.. thats why i tried to install again... BUT i cant find that guide again
[05:02] <taime1> i wouldnt even be fooling with this shiite
[05:02] <nme> just wondering if anyone knows anyone with an acer 44oo
[05:02] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: So how would I prepare a blank HD for RAID-1 if a)I can't boot off the remaining HD; b)The LiveCD lists the HDs as "in use"?
[05:02] <Sh3r1ff> jimmythegeek: don't you need a display manager to be able to run vmware?
[05:02] <cookie> ok bye
[05:03] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: c when one disk fails and you need to replace it, and only then
[05:03] <zedfloyd> i have a windows directory that i can play mp3's from in ubuntu but i can not write files to it... says i dont have permission...?  how can i write to this windows partition?
[05:03] <Oldgeezer2> Sh3riff ok did all that and enabled the drivers is there anything else I need to know before I reboot and install the card?
[05:03] <Sh3r1ff> zedfloyd: boot windows ;)
[05:03] <kitche> !ntfs-3g | zedfloyd
[05:03] <ubotu> zedfloyd: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[05:03] <shrimants> zedfloyd, use chown to change ownership to windows
[05:03] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: Replace it with a RAID disk only?
[05:03] <shrimants> srry, to change ownership to your own name
[05:03] <jimmythegeek> sh3r1ff: yep - but you don't need the whole meal deal.
[05:03] <greyfrog> zedfloyd: print /etc/fstab here
[05:04] <jimmythegeek> no gnome
[05:04] <zedfloyd> what is chown?
[05:04] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: replace it with a blank disk and put raid one it when it is in place
[05:04] <wastrel> wiseelben:  user@remote-server:path/to/file .   (the . is important)
[05:04] <shrimants> chown - CHange OWNership
[05:04] <greyfrog> zedfloyd: chown = change ownership
[05:04] <Madsy> zedfloyd: Sets file ownership
[05:04] <kitche> shrimants: won't help him since linux doesn;t have ntfs write unless feisty includes that by default now
[05:04] <shrimants> yes it does
[05:04] <Sh3r1ff> jimmythegeek: other distro's as guest work, say like windows just to test ;)
[05:04] <zedfloyd> ahhh does it matter that i have 64
[05:04] <shrimants> **fiesty does
[05:04] <jimmythegeek> zedfloyd: chown username:groupname file-to-change
[05:04] <shrimants> i dont think so
[05:04] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: But you said I cannot boot with a blank disk.
[05:05] <Sh3r1ff> kitche: that is a no go ;)
[05:05] <jimmythegeek> sh3r1ff: this host has a guest already - ubuntu desktop
[05:05] <levon> aright seriously i got something sweet going on hmm hold on i need to get a desktop capture so everyone can check this out
[05:05] <shrimants> zedfloyd it should be the same, the operating system works the same, it just handles the isntructions differently
[05:05] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: not boot the installed operating system butr a live cd ;)
[05:05] <jimmythegeek> sh3riff: but guest was created on other host
[05:05] <zedfloyd> ok
[05:06] <daylighter> I've been following the directions on several tutorials, but jscalibrator and snes cant find my sidewinder
[05:06] <shrimants> as for me, my problems are all listed here: shrimants.blogspot.com
[05:06] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: But the LiveCD lists the HD as in use.
[05:06] <shrimants> http://shrimants.blogspot.com
[05:06] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: you only have to edit the blank hd, not the still working disk
[05:06] <joeljkp> how do i enable the commercial repo?
[05:06] <troib> hello
[05:07] <shrimants> joeljkp, its enabled by default in fiesty, but u can go through synaptic package manager
[05:07] <shawn34> running the minimal install cd, installed base system. selected to install ubuntu desktop. asked for screen res for xserver then started to install the desktop. but now its been sitting at 6% for 5+ minutes and just says "Please wait..." any ideas as to whats going on here?
[05:07] <shrimants> or gedit your sources list
[05:07] <joeljkp> shrimants: hmm, how come no reaplay or opera?
[05:07] <shrimants> realplayer on opera browser?
[05:07] <joeljkp> shrimants: yeah
[05:07] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: So I remove all other HDs, put a blank one in, format the same partitions as the previous HDs except for creating md*?
[05:07] <Mr-Z> Wow, crowded in here :O
[05:07] <shrimants> because firefox > opera
[05:08] <shrimants> ^__^
[05:08] <joeljkp> shrimants: is there any way i can check that it's being included?
[05:08] <shrimants> i dont know, i dont use opera so im not a good person to ask
[05:08] <dedi> looking for expert to fix [fglrx]  Internal AGP is not supported in 2.6 kernel ;)
[05:08] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: leave one of the raid disks in, put a blank in it, boot live cd, put raid on blank disk, link it to previous raid and then boot os again
[05:09] <shrimants> joeljkp, i installed 7.04 and it came with support for most things in firefox, and then i used Automatix2 in order to install the codecs/plugins i was missing, along with changing the handler to mplayer
[05:09] <shrimants> i also use totem-xine instead of totem-gstreamer
[05:10] <joeljkp> shrimants: those aren't commercial...
[05:10] <gravemind> I started downloading a torrent yesterday, and somehow overnight the computer got turned off and I can't find the data. What logs do I need to read to find out what happened, or find the data.
[05:10] <shrimants> i know, this is linux. not much is commercial
[05:10] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: But will I be able to change the md* and won't it format the original disk?
[05:11] <troib> is there someone here that might be able to help me
[05:11] <shrimants> troib, it depends on what you need help in
[05:11] <Mr-Z> I'm trying to run a bash script to convert some .M4A files to .MP3, but I'm getting an error:  "/bin/bash: bad interpreter: Permission denied".  Anybody know why that is?  I'm running Dapper, pretty new to linux in general
[05:11] <shrimants> for instance, i've been trying to figure out how to fix my Alps touchpad for about 30 minutes unsuccesfully
[05:11] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: if you want to be sure, just give it a test drive before you implement it for real
[05:11] <jimmythegeek> shrimants: :(
[05:12] <shrimants> ?
[05:12] <shrimants> what?
[05:12] <jimmythegeek> shrimants: no love for the Alps touchpad
[05:12] <shrimants> oh the touchpad thing?  yeah. annoying
[05:12] <HeFFy> hey guys~ i hav problem with FF's flash player and i hav AMD64
[05:12] <taime1> i installed ndiswrapper, and i installed the driver, but still no wireless, what am i missing?
[05:12] <levon> this is what im doing anyone intrested in helping me with some questions i have http://img03.picoodle.com/img/img03/8/5/24/f_Screenshotm_af2b97c.png look at this first the bottom is suppose to be a customized pannel but its not its icons put together i want to make a panel from this any help would be appreciated
[05:12] <jimmythegeek> don't have one myself
[05:12] <quaal> everything i read says ipv6 is enabled by default
[05:12] <shrimants> jimmythegeek: no love for dell computers
[05:12] <kazol> Sh3r1ff: Thanks, sorry for all of those questions...RAID in Windows 2003 is much easier and automatically boots.
[05:12] <quaal> but i cant ping ipv6 addresses
[05:12] <dedi> how can i check if i have kernel agp support and loaded?
[05:12] <quaal> i even tried installing the 6tunnel package
[05:13] <shawn34> ok, im installing ubuntu on my new pc. how can i make sure im taking advantage of my amd dual-core processor? do i need to install the k7 kernel?
[05:13] <troib> might anyone know what the message Gtk-WARNING **-cannot open display : might mean
[05:13] <shrimants> im getting a new one sometime, i just want to get my feet wet with ubuntu/linux before trying to get it on my future lappy
[05:13] <levon> tell me that isnt pretty sweet
[05:13] <Sh3r1ff> kazol: the power of linux is that you can configure everything yourself, and don't have to put up with the default windows crap ;)
[05:13] <levon> i need to make one more for the time at the end
[05:13] <shrimants> yeah, the only way that sucks is that lots of times u dont know HOW to configure crap yourself
[05:13] <Sh3r1ff> shawn34: generic kernel takes care of that
[05:13] <shrimants> blasted touchpad
[05:13] <shrimants> and blasted sound
[05:13] <bruenig> someone go to this page and see if you get the same error please: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_registration-run
[05:14] <troib> Sh3r1ff
[05:14] <troib> sorry
[05:14] <shawn34> Sh3r1ff, when i have the deskop up an running how can i check to make sure?
[05:14] <Sh3r1ff> shrimants: thats why we share the little knowledge we have ;)
[05:14] <j_ack> dedi, lsmod | grep agp
[05:14] <Mr-Z> I'm trying to run a bash script to convert some .M4A files to .MP3, but I'm getting an error:  "/bin/bash: bad interpreter: Permission denied".  Anybody know why that is?  I'm running Dapper, trying to execute the script from a Fat32 partition ...
[05:14] <shrimants> yes, its actually quite fun
[05:14] <Sh3r1ff> troib: check what?
[05:14] <shrimants> in any case, i have no idea how to freakin fix the sound and touchpad
[05:15] <shrimants> sound is a way bigger problem
[05:15] <Sh3r1ff> Mr-Z: file is executable?
[05:15] <dedi> j_ack: thanks, then i dont have it loaded :(
[05:15] <HeFFy> can anyone help me on problem with FF's flash player and i hav AMD64
[05:15] <Sh3r1ff> shrimants, google no help?
[05:15] <Mr-Z> Sh3r1ff:  I was under the impression that I just type up the script and use ./scriptname to run it ...
[05:16] <[Meta] > !codecs
[05:16] <shawn34> Sh3r1ff, when i have the deskop up an running how can i check to make sure?
[05:16] <[Meta] > =/
[05:16] <Sh3r1ff> Mr-Z: you have to set the permission so you can exute it
[05:16] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[05:16] <joeljkp> btw, shrimants, the best answer to my question would be "try to install vmware-server from add/remove applications"
[05:16] <levon> has anyone took a look at what im trying to do? im just curious and need some help to actually make it a panel the items you see at the bottom are just icons on top of a panel thats transparent but i need to see if anyone in here knows how to actually turn that thing into a panel would be nice let me know heres the image once again http://img03.picoodle.com/img/img03/8/5/24/f_Screenshotm_af2b97c.png
[05:16] <Sh3r1ff> shawn34: check what?
[05:16] <quaal> can anyone ping this 2001:618:400:b999:0:0:b19:beef
[05:16] <wastrel> Mr-Z:  you can run it with  bash scriptname   or yeah, set the execute permissions
[05:16] <j_ack> dedi, thats my output , sis_agp                 9604  1
[05:16] <j_ack> agpgart                35400  2 nvidia,sis_agp
[05:16] <shawn34> Sh3r1ff, that ubuntu is using my dual core correctly
[05:16] <IowaDave> shrimants: i assume you have audio drivers for your sound hardware?
[05:17] <troib> i uninstalled my working display driver, restarted to a terminal, and i tried reinstalling the driver from the repository but when i try to edit config it gives me the message  Gtk-WARNING **-cannot open display :
[05:17] <Mr-Z> It's got all of the permissions turned on, still not working :( also tried running with Sudo but it made no difference
[05:17] <dedi> j_ack: do you know how to get agp support, agpart isnt in the kernel anymore (right?) and there isnt a loadable module for nfroce3 (only find via, intel and sis)
[05:17] <Sh3r1ff> shawn34: cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep '^processor' | wc -l  will show you how many processors ubuntu finds
[05:17] <wastrel> Mr-Z:  do you have the proper interpreter in the #! line ?
[05:18] <shrimants> iowadrive yes
[05:18] <shawn34> Sh3r1ff, thanks
[05:18] <Mr-Z> #!/bin/bash
[05:18] <greyfrog> troib: how are you trying to edit the config?
[05:18] <Mr-Z> which is the same dir I get for my shell if I user finger on my username
[05:18] <shrimants> the sound WORKS, its just tiny little things that are annoying as heck
[05:18] <j_ack> dedi, what is the name of youre card
[05:18] <Sh3r1ff> shawn34: you will want to see 2 ;)
[05:18] <troib> gksudo gedit?
[05:18] <troib> sorry im very new
[05:18] <shrimants> iowadrive: for detailed info, http://shrimants.blogspot.com
[05:18] <cycom> Why isn't rtc enabled in the default amd64 kernel?
[05:19] <shrimants> troib, i feel for u, im in the same boat
[05:19] <greyfrog> troib: that will only work with the display running...  is the xserver running?
[05:19] <dedi> j_ack: its an ati x800 and ati removed the internal agp support
[05:19] <IowaDave> shrimants: things like echoes and pitch shifts?
[05:19] <wastrel> Mr-Z:  ok how about a hello world type script with the #!/bin/bash and then something like  echo hello world
[05:19] <Sh3r1ff> troib: sudo nano ;)
[05:19] <taime1> is there a decent distribution that supports broadcom wireless cards and sound???
[05:19] <troib> greyfrog; sorry would that be the gui?
[05:19] <greyfrog> troib: what Sh3r1ff said :)
[05:19] <bullgard4> I cannot find a hal-device-manager tutorial. Is there one?
[05:19] <greyfrog> troib: yup
[05:19] <dedi> j_ack: at kernel config i dont find any agp options at device / char / agp. only when using "search" in the kernel menu there are results which are not browsable. there is amd64 (agp) and agp on yes, but are they realy compiled then? (just doesnt look like)
[05:20] <j_ack> dedi, sorry then i cant help, i have nvidia
[05:20] <Dezine> I imagine this is a stupid questions but for the life of me google is of no help.. I'm trying to install a gaim plugin, where is that folder on my computer?
[05:20] <Dezine> or any installed programs for that matter

[05:20] <dedi> j_ack: i think the problem doesnt lie on the grafic card. have to handle this i think: [fglrx]  Internal AGP is not supported in 2.6 kernel

[05:20] <Sh3r1ff> troib: yup
[05:20] <daylighter> not .cong
[05:21] <troib> thanks so much
[05:21] <Sh3r1ff> daylighter: sure it is typo ;)
[05:21] <daylighter> :)
[05:21] <shrimants> iowadave, no no, nothing serious, just that 1) pc speaker and subwoofer are controlled differently instead of as one unit, 2) master volume only controls PC Speaker (so subwoofer and headphones remain where they are)
[05:21] <troib> i greatly appreciate
[05:21] <ko12upt> this is what im doing anyone intrested in helping me with some questions i have http://img03.picoodle.com/img/img03/8/5/24/f_Screenshotm_af2b97c.png look at this first the bottom is suppose to be a customized pannel but its not its icons put together i want to make a panel from this any help would be appreciated
[05:21] <troib> it
[05:21] <p1ls> hey i just installed eterm how cani run it
[05:21] <daylighter> I am still trying to figure out what to do w/ my sidewinder
[05:21] <greyfrog> troib: good luck! :)
[05:21] <shrimants> 3) with headphones plugged in, the other sound devices (pc speaker, sub) dont put out sound, but the media keys dont control the headphone volume, neither does the trey
[05:21] <shrimants> tray* icon
[05:21] <troib> thanks guys
[05:22] <Mr-Z> wastrel:   I can run a hello world script from my home directory, but not from the directory with I'm trying to run the script from (which is on a different partition) ...
[05:22] <p1ls> hey i just installed eterm how cani run it
[05:22] <troib> now that i know i can get support like this, u can be sure ill be back
[05:22] <Dezine> thanks anyway..
[05:22] <greyfrog> troib: :)
[05:22] <wastrel> Mr-Z:  the partition is mounted noexec.   use mount  to look at the flags
[05:22] <wastrel> Mr-Z:  my guess anyway :]
[05:22] <shrimants> so right now, i have headphone jack going to line in on my surround sound system, and i have to control the volume by setting the tray icon to PCM instead of headphones or speakers and then i have to slide the slider to control
[05:23] <Mr-Z> I'll check my fstab
[05:23] <IowaDave> shrimants: i read your blog. don't know if this will help. my speakers all have separate volume controls for the subwoofer and the mains, because the circuit for splitting out the subwoofer is internal to the speakers.
[05:23] <daylighter> is there a channel for gaming/emulation ?
[05:23] <p1ls> hey i just installed eterm how cani run it
[05:23] <shrimants> by subwoofer, i mean my PC Speaker has 2 speakers and then there is a 1 inch subwoofer on the bottom of the laptop
[05:23] <Mr-Z> wastrel:  You're right, it's mounted as noexec.  Is that something I can change in my fstab?
[05:23] <IowaDave> shrimants: headphone jack to line >>in<<?
[05:23] <shrimants> so i want that subwoofer volume and PC Speaker volume to be locked in a tight ratio
[05:24] <troib> now how do i add this as a favorite channel
[05:24] <troib> anybody?
[05:24] <Sh3r1ff> troib: which client do you use?
[05:24] <troib> using bersirc?
[05:24] <shrimants> iowadave, i have logitech Z5500, so its headphones from comp to auxilliary input on z5500 reciever unit
[05:24] <Sh3r1ff> troib: google.com ;)
[05:24] <jazzrocker> hi, there's a repo out there specifically for audio recording software, some university, and it has a big long acronym that i think starts with C, anyone know what i'm talking about and can remember the name and also tell me the name? :)
[05:24] <troib> lol
[05:24] <jazzrocker> i'm not talking about "ubuntu studio"
[05:24] <troib> thanks so much
[05:24] <IowaDave> shrimants: ok, that's more detail than a rube like me can help with. sorry.
[05:24] <jay1> can anyone direct me to an easy to use media server for linux
[05:25] <CerebroJD> Hmm... I have no idea why this damn wireless card wont work correctly.    Thanks for your help!

[05:39] <nrdb> Hi I am trying to get a VOIP application to work, Ekiga stuffs up my ADSL modems LAN connection ??? :(    what else can I use ?
[05:39] <PackeT> anyone have any experience with ubiquity?
[05:39] <taime1> crimsun:yes
[05:39] <crimsun> taime1: then, in a Terminal, run:  bash ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh
[05:40] <PackeT> has anyone gotten the migration assistant to run stand alone ?
[05:40] <PackeT> everyone says ubiquity --migration-assistant
[05:40] <taime1> crimsun: it says the directory doesnt exist
[05:41] <PackeT> dosen't werk for me
[05:41] <taime1> crimsun: i mean the file
[05:42] <crimsun> taime1: what's the precise error message?
[05:42] <gravemind> are there programs that look for stuff that has been deleted but not erased?
[05:42] <taime1> crimsun: no such file or directory
[05:42] <agraupe> I've been having a slight problem with my wireless network and ubuntu.  It seems to work fine right after setup, and then, inexplicably, it slows to the point where it can just barely resolve domain names.  Any ideas why this might be happening?  I checked the output of iwconfig eth1, and it showed a rate of 1Mb/s.  I tried to set it to 11Mb/s, but it didn't work.  I reset the router and rebooted, and now it's back to normal
[05:42] <crimsun> taime1: that's the entire error line?
[05:43] <taime1> crimsun: bash: /home/amy/Desktop/alsa-info.sh: no such file or directory
[05:43] <crimsun> taime1: then you didn't download and save the script to your desktop as I asked...
[05:44] <Sh3r1ff> agraupe: then it was a router problem
[05:44] <taime1> crimsun: im staring right at it
[05:44] <taime1> crimsun: its sitting on my desktop
[05:44] <crimsun> taime1: take a screenshot and post a url to it.

[05:45] <taime1> crimsun: or just mad at me?

[05:45] <dsnyders> Is it possible to "boot" an iso file from linux?

[05:46] <bknitram> dsnyders, Yes, if you install a emulator.

[05:47] <dr_willis> dsnyders,  i use vmware or virtualbox to boot iso files to test out live cd's
[05:47] <crimsun> taime1: so, do you see your typo yet?
[05:47] <dsnyders> Sh3r1ff, that just mounts it.  I want to boot it without going to the store, buying blank media, etc.
[05:47] <Scootin159> how do I go about diagnosing a suspend issue?

[05:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about typo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:48] <taime1> crimsun:  you just haaaaaad to make me jump through the hoops ;)
[05:48] <CerebroJD> dsnyders, you want to boot to an iso?
[05:48] <Sh3r1ff> dsnyders: afraid you will have to go to the store then ;)
[05:48] <dr_willis> dsnyders,  to do what exactly with it?  clarify the real problem :)
[05:48] <bknitram> dsnyders, You will need to install an emulator.
[05:48] <gravemind> so does anyone know, are there programs that look for stuff that has been deleted but not shredded? My computer had a sloppy shutdown, and I was downloading a large torrent, and can't find the data
[05:48] <gravemind> but it might still be on the drive
[05:48] <sid> fuck, I just did rm -rf /etc by accident. heh
