[11:18] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: ok, but root (h1,5) does work
[11:18] <paul68> ikonia: ok will try
[11:19] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: no, my ubuntu partition in on the 7th partition...so hd1,6 will work
[11:19] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: you ubuntu partition is the 6th according to that fdisk output
[11:20] <ikonia> arvind_khadri so it should be hd1,5
[11:20] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: just a sec... i think i copied a wrong command...sorry
[11:21] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: root (hd1,4) doesnt return a error
[11:21] <ikonia> arvind_khadri what does it say ?
[11:21] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: it echoes back root (hd1,4)
[11:21] <chiliblue_> I am trying to install amazons mp3 store downloader app, it is a i386 I I am running a AMD 64 Dual Core, I should be ok to force the install right?
[11:22] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: now do setup (hd0) and see if it complains
[11:22] <ikonia> arvind_khadri it should complain
[11:22] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: yeah it does
[11:22] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: now change root to (hd1,5)
[11:22] <ikonia> and then try setup (hd0) this may/maynot complain
[11:23] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: this too complains... for root (hd1,6) it wont complain
[11:23] <ashu> hello, i've some problems in playing videos in Intrepid...could someone help?
[11:24] <ikonia> arvind_khadri which makes sense as your ext is reserving partitios 3 and 4 - so that makes your linux partition "7" as you rightly said before which makes hd1,6 "correct"
[11:24] <ikonia> the question is why this partition can't be mounted
[11:24] <zetheroo> how do I get OOo to detect Java?
[11:24] <penno> hey how do i find ip address
[11:24] <ikonia> penno ifconfig
[11:25] <bob_> .
[11:25] <thanius> Hello, I'm running Intrepid on my laptop and often now and then when on battery the screen dims to a very low brightness. The brightness controls doesn't affect this, and then suddenly, it goes back to normal. Anyone know how to fix/disable this?
[11:25] <thanius> penno: ifconfig
[11:25] <Elijah_Frost> Good day ladies and gentlemen. What do I need to do in order to play World of Warcraft under 8.10? I got video drivers and wine installed. However, FPS isn't that high
[11:26] <thanius> Elijah_Frost: Disable compiz
[11:26] <ikonia> Elijah_Frost: #winehq is a better bet
[11:26] <penno> thanks
[11:26] <thanius> Hello, I'm running Intrepid on my laptop and often now and then when on battery the screen dims to a very low brightness. The brightness controls doesn't affect this, and then suddenly, it goes back to normal. Anyone know how to fix/disable this?
[11:26] <Elijah_Frost> ok thanks
[11:26] <arvind_khadri_> ikonia: sorry got disconnected
[11:26] <penno> hey can u get ip from another sever
[11:26] <arvind_khadri_> ikonia: root hd1,5 gives error
[11:26] <ashu> The videos just keep flickering after I downloaded all the extra Gstreamer extra codecs and Ubuntu restricted extras
[11:27] <ashu> I tried VLC next but with same problem :(
[11:27] <ikonia> arvind_khadri_ thats fine as the ext partition is reserving partitions 3 and 4 - so that makes your aprtition 7 as you rightly said, so hd1,6 will work, but the question is why can that not be mounted
[11:28] <penno> do u need a anti virus in linux
[11:28] <ikonia> penno: not really
[11:28] <penno> ya i like to  go on yahoo and they boot me ou of the room is there any way u can get there ip
[11:29] <ikonia> penno no
[11:29] <ikonia> penno: nor shoyuld you care what their ip is
[11:29] <jussi01> !virus | penno
[11:29] <ikonia> penno: your booted out of a room for a reason, I suggest you address that
[11:31] <arvind_khadri_> ikonia: well this happens with me most of the times when i reload grub and i try a lot to recover from this, but finally get frustrated and i do a fresh install... and yeah as a matter of fact grub isnt able to load windows too,it says NTLDR not found
[11:32] <ikonia> arvind_khadri_ ntldr not found is normally a windows issue due to how the aprtitioning process has gone
[11:32] <ashu> I GET FLICKERING VIDEOS IN TOTEM AND VLC ALL THE TIME, CAN SOMEONE HELP?
[11:32] <penno> na they boot for fun in yahoo
[11:32] <ALLi> ytj
[11:32] <arvind_khadri_> ikonia: i feel if the ubuntu partitions get loaded/mounted the ntldr would also vanish
[11:32] <ikonia> ashu people will help more if you don't use capslock
[11:33] <ikonia> penno thats not something we can help with, comaplin to yahoo
[11:33] <Andrew``> !dual boot
[11:33] <penno> na thanks any

[11:33] <ikonia> ashu I now chose to ignore your help reaquest though for that very reson
[11:33] <arvind_khadri_> ikonia: i mean the problem may vanish, anyhow, what can we do about this ?
[11:33] <ashu> yeah great...
[11:34] <ikonia> ashu: if you noticed I was helpiung multiple people as are others and more people will get to you once they have finished with what they are doing
[11:34] <ashu> there are 1300 people here
[11:34] <ikonia> arvind_khadri_ I'm trying to walk through why your partition can't be mounted by grub,
[11:34] <ashu> not many helping ones though

[11:34] <ikonia> ashu: I see people busy helelping

[11:35] <ashu> i've noticed, thank you
[11:35] <ikonia> arvind_khadri_: I'll let you know as I come to something, but as I see it at the moment your disk should mount
[11:35] <penno> whats a good link to learn commands

[11:36] <Kalidarn> hi, i have a Logitech Quickcam 9000... what i've noticed is the framerate in skype is much worse than it is in windows (where i get silky smooth speeds)... i've had trouble getting luvcview to show anything but a black box when opening it
[11:36] <Kalidarn> the red light lights up though as if it is taking picture i've tried to get luvcview to view at different resolutions and frame rates.. but it still doesn't want to work
[11:37] <penno> thanks ikonia
[11:38] <Kalidarn> oh and my webcam is on /dev/video0
[11:38] <Kalidarn> so its definitely pointing to the right place
[11:38] <Kalidarn> i could't get guvcview to work either
[11:38] <Kalidarn> both seem to crash too
[11:39] <Kalidarn> and i have to kill them with killall -9
[11:39] <ooglebutte> !webcam | Kalidarn this might have a clue
[11:39] <Kalidarn> (and yeah i know its a supported one) ;)
[11:39] <Kalidarn> i checked before i bought it
[11:40] <Kalidarn> which it is listed there
[11:40] <prodigel> hi all. I've just noticed a new database in mysql, it's called diogenes. Do you have any idea who created this? I only see some records about 'barrel' , 'file upload' etc
[11:40] <penno> i type cheese
[11:40] <penno> and it come up with a web cam
[11:40] <Kalidarn> Logitech QuickCam Pro9000 uvcvideo 046d:0990 Yes Yes, but crashes in Skype unless update uvcvideo. 7.10 (Gutsy 2008-Jan-
[11:40] <Kalidarn> that doesn't happen for me
[11:40] <Kalidarn> when i load up cheese
[11:41] <Kalidarn> but the red light goes on
[11:41] <Kalidarn> hmm
[11:41] <[e]Lement> Hm
[11:41] <chiliblue_> Solved my amazonmp3 download app install on a amd64 issues
[11:41] <[e]Lement> I found another weird bug when updating to 8.10
[11:42] <Kalidarn> mm
[11:43] <penno> so u telling me  that linux dont get a virus
[11:43] <[e]Lement> penno, yes as it is based off the same thing Mac OS X is.
[11:43] <Myrtti> penno: it's very, very, very unlikely
[11:43] <ikonia> penno read the link, there are different way tto exploit
[11:43] <Kalidarn> [e]Lement, no its not actually
[11:43] <Kalidarn> ;)
[11:43] <[e]Lement> Uh
[11:43] <[e]Lement> Yeah
[11:43] <Kalidarn> macosx is bsd and mach ;)
[11:43] <Kalidarn> linux is not bsd and mach :)
[11:43] <[e]Lement> Linux is loosely based off UNIX
[11:43] <[e]Lement> BSD is based off UNIX
[11:44] <Kalidarn> linux is a unix-like system ;)
[11:44] <[e]Lement> They are distant cousins
[11:44] <Kalidarn> where as osx is unix ;)
[11:44] <Kalidarn> well more unixy
[11:44] <Kalidarn> than what linux is ;)
[11:44] <ikonia> does it matter ?
[11:44] <FloodBot2> Kalidarn: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:44] <[e]Lement> Correct
[11:44] <Kalidarn> ikonia, it means its less posix compliant ^_^
[11:44] <[e]Lement> But as I was saying, they are closer than Mac OS X -> The NT Kernel
[11:44] <Kalidarn> and doesn't get the special batch that macosx did
[11:44] <ikonia> Kalidarn does it matter for the puporse of the question
[11:44] <ikonia> !offtopic
[11:44] <Kalidarn> haha probably not i didn't read that
[11:44] <[e]Lement> Wait
[11:44] <Kalidarn> its got nothing to do with getting viruses though
[11:45] <[e]Lement> So if we go off topic my lazy ass has to join another channel?
[11:45] <Kalidarn> its because most of the software comes through digitally signed repositories
[11:45] <puneeth> !nvidia
[11:45] <Kalidarn> and not from random installers, it is possible if you ran an un-trusted .deb file from somewhere on the internet it could do harm penno
[11:45]  * [e]Lement installs a rootkit on Kalidarn's PC
[11:46] <[e]Lement> I really want to invest in an eee pc and get Ubuntu EEE
[11:46] <[e]Lement> But yeah
[11:47] <[e]Lement> I've learned that after upgrading to 8.10 my screensaver won't deactivate by mouse movement
[11:47] <[e]Lement> I have to click =/
[11:47] <Kalidarn> http://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/linux-uvc-devel/2006-August/000720.html mmm this person had the same problem as me
[11:47] <Kalidarn> The camera light shows red but the screen is black. Closing the window
[11:47] <Kalidarn> gives "Stop asked" on the console, but after that the process hangs. Have to
[11:47] <Kalidarn> use kill -9 to stop luvcview.
[11:47] <Unas> people please direct me how to enter the gui under 8.04 LiveCD if it didn't logged in automatically? :(
[11:47] <ikonia> Unas you should get logged in
[11:48] <[e]Lement> Unas, it should login automatically.
[11:48] <Unas> nope, it didn't
[11:48] <ikonia> Unas what do you see
[11:48] <[e]Lement> Are you sure you didn't grab the "Alternative" cd?
[11:48] <Unas> i know, that it sould
[11:48] <Unas> nono
[11:48] <[e]Lement> hm
[11:48]  * [e]Lement shrugs
[11:48] <[e]Lement> Odd

[11:49] <Unas> it's an ordinary ubuntu with realtime extensions
[11:49] <ikonia> Unas: it's not the official ubuntu cD ?
[11:50] <ikonia> Unas ahh ok, so they modify it, so I suggest you use their support methods
[11:50] <Pupeno> What other clippboard history program is there other than glipper?
[11:51] <Vinceman> why can't I 'sudo users-admin' properly?
[11:51] <ikonia> Vinceman launch it from the gui menu
[11:51] <Vinceman> yes but then I cannot give users more or less options
[11:51] <arvind_khadri_> ikonia: shall i try super grub?
[11:51] <ikonia> Vinceman: system->administration
[11:51] <ikonia> arvind_khadri_ do'nt see how that will make a difference
[11:51] <ikonia> Vinceman it's the same tool
[11:51] <Vinceman> with no rights ikonia!
[11:51] <ikonia> Vinceman: you can give ht eusers what ever options you want iwth that menu
[11:52] <ikonia> Vinceman what ?
[11:52] <Kalidarn> hmm xawtv doesnt want to work either
[11:52] <Vinceman> ikonia: I can't allow him to connect to internet using a modem
[11:52] <arvind_khadri_> ikonia: does the drive being LBA make a difference as mentioned in one of the posts
[11:52] <creek23_> hello
[11:52] <Vinceman> or use tape drives
[11:52] <arvind_khadri_> ikonia: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=442945 here
[11:52] <Vinceman> scanners etc. etc.
[11:52] <ikonia> Vinceman how is that anything to do with your user admin command
[11:53] <ikonia> arvind_khadri_ lba should no longer matter
[11:53] <creek23_> what cvs client + gui do you guys use with gnome desktop?
[11:53] <Vinceman> I need superuser rights in that command
[11:53] <ikonia> arvind_khadri_: but I don't understnd it %100
[11:53] <arvind_khadri_> ikonia: ok... #grub exists?

[12:07] <__franky__> hi, just installed ubuntu on a computer and connected it to my 32" lcd tatung
[12:07] <__franky__> when i run the livecd it has the correct resolution 1360*768
[12:07] <__franky__> but after install it show the resolution to 640*480 no matter what
[12:08] <__franky__> i can select 1360*768 but it becomes just a like a zoom.   the tv seems to force the resolution to 640*480 even the ubuntu shows 1360*768
[12:08] <zetheroo> ikonia: hmmm I went to http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ and I cannot seem to find what I am looking for ...
[12:08] <__franky__> anyone familiar with this behavior?
[12:08] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: This error is returned if the partition requested exists, but the filesystem type cannot be recognized by GRUB.so either you used the wrong partition/disk in menu.lst or something in your partition table is wrong.........this is what they said
[12:08] <zetheroo> ikonia: I while back I found a bunch of DVD iso's for the Hardy repos
[12:11] <sajuuk> hey guys trying to dual screen... ubuntu sees my two screens in the screen resolution manager in System>Preferences, but nothing is happening, what should I do?
[12:11] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: i think i got it... see Ubuntu is on the second drive so menu.lst should say (hd1,7) for Ubuntu right?
[12:11] <meganox> sajuuk: man xrandr
[12:12] <vladtsepesh1984> someone can help configuring dual monitor on ubuntu 8.10???
[12:12] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: and for windows it should be hd0,0
[12:12] <jkb> sajuuk: what video card driver?
[12:12] <sajuuk> intel 550
[12:12] <ActionParsnip1> !dualhead | vladtsepesh1984
[12:12] <__franky__> anyone know what might cause my problem?
[12:12] <jkb> and you are doing xinerama?
[12:12] <sajuuk> how do i install xinerama?
[12:13] <jkb> one sec
[12:13] <sajuuk> i think i checked through synaptic, wasn't there
[12:13] <sajuuk> and i did a apt-get
[12:13] <sajuuk> zilch for both
[12:13] <remoteCTR1> ikonia: .kde/share/config/knetworkmanagerrc it is obviously:)
[12:13] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: either i should now change the device.map or replace all the instances of hd0 with hd1
[12:13] <jkb> which version, hardy? intrepid?
[12:13] <sajuuk> hardy
[12:14] <Dabbu> if i am accesing internet through "HTTP" or "SHOCK5" proxy...how can i acess internet in application installed through "WINE"
[12:14] <sajuuk> wots Xrand?
[12:15] <meganox> i have just formatted 2 internal drives and now want to change the names in nautilus and mount them read-write with a right-click like i do my usb drives (not automount)
[12:15] <Guest7851> Does anyone know if it's possible to move the Master Sound Volume Control icon in the top application bar, over to the right of the date and time so it doesn't obscure anything when it's left in the "open" position with the slider visible?
[12:15] <ghaleb> hello, how can I perform a script at each login to the server  ?  for example. I want the server to send an email on each login success login
[12:15] <meganox> sajuuk: xrandr is a command line utility for dealin with dual monitors.  AFAIK GUI tools in gnome aren't complete yet
[12:16] <sajuuk> oh god... is there a quick tute for xrandr?
[12:16] <jeaton> hi, i just installed ubuntu while having Windows XP already on here, anyway, im not able to boot into windows now
[12:16] <Guest7851> "Right Click" -> "Move" doesn't allow me to move it over that far.
[12:16] <Dabbu>  if i am accesing internet through "HTTP" or "SHOCK5" proxy...how can i acess internet in application installed through "WINE"??
[12:16] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: you there?
[12:16] <jeaton> it shows up on the boot loader, but all it says is "starting up..."
[12:16] <meganox> Guest7851: you will need t right-click each applet on the panel and unlock them first
[12:17] <tealson> I cannot switch between my desktops using my mousewhell any more, how can I fix this? (using compiz)
[12:17] <Guest7851> @jeaton You are lucky.
[12:17] <ActionParsnip1> tealson: join #compiz
[12:18] <jkb> sajuuk: xinerama or xrandr setup on intel is not gui clicky sadly, with nvidia binary driver you can use nvidia-settings

[12:19] <Bacta> Hi, installation is screwed. I keep getting the following error: Buffer I/O error, dev sr0 . I've downloaded the image twice and have tried Wubi but to no avail. What other installation issues are available to me?
[12:19] <Tyrath> would anyone be able to read a make dump?
[12:19] <Tyrath> - i'm stuggling pinpointing the error for a make
[12:19] <Tyrath> as in, I have no idea why it isn't making from the dump
[12:20] <meganox> sajuuk: xrandr is quite easy, you need to make one edit to xorg.conf to set a large enough Virtual desktop, your card must support a size big enough for both monitors tiled, or you will only be able to clone the screens
[12:20] <Tyrath> !gspcav1
[12:20] <Tyrath> :(
[12:20] <Bacta> Anyone?
[12:20] <sajuuk> wot type of edit to xorg?
[12:21] <Tyrath> Bacta: what are you trying to do?
[12:21] <Bacta> Install Ubuntu 8.10
[12:21] <Tyrath> Bacta: did you try dist-upgrade
[12:21] <Bacta> I don't have a distro
[12:21] <arvind_khadri> can i run update-grub from the live cd?
[12:22] <Bacta> I'm installing this alongside Windows
[12:22] <Tyrath> Bacta: ah k, have you made a new partition?
[12:22] <Bacta> no. the installer is meant to do that
[12:22] <Bacta> I can't even get beyond the first splash screen before I get errors
[12:22] <Tyrath> Bacta: live CD install or no?
[12:23] <Bacta> won't work with Live CD either
[12:23] <Bacta> I've been told to check the media. I will do this but I don't get why this could be an issue having downloaded the image twice
[12:23] <Tyrath> Bacta: the first splash screen being the installation splash screen or the installed O/S splash screen?
[12:23] <Bacta> first splash screen before installed O/S
[12:23] <ikonia> Bacta: burn problem, or a problem iwth th eimage
[12:24] <Bacta> potentially
[12:24] <Bacta> I've got an 8 gig ipod. I'm aware that some O/Ss will install off USB
[12:24] <Bacta> would this be an option?
[12:24] <ikonia> not fromt eh piod
[12:24] <Tyrath> Bacta: I would automatically assume you're trying to install the 64 bit when your O/S only supports the 32 bit...
[12:24] <ChrisBookwood> How do i change the theme of the screensaver login dialog when my desktop is locked?
[12:24] <ikonia> and usb set is a reasonable ammount of work
[12:24] <ikonia> Bacta: and if your image is borked, putting it on a usb won't change that
[12:24] <Bacta> ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386(2).iso
[12:25] <ikonia> Bacta: thats a file name and shows nothing
[12:25] <ActionParsnip1> Bacta: you can download it a million times, if their is a transmission error and the image is bad you will get issues
[12:25] <meganox> sajuuk: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174
[12:25] <ActionParsnip1> Bacta: md5checks are there for a reason
[12:25] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: i guess the UUID's are a prob
[12:25] <Tyrath> Bacta: ahh I see... have you tried disabling some of the advanced package installs at the splash?
[12:25] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: why would you say that
[12:25] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: it's not getting tot he menu stage
[12:26] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: uuid's aren't even referened before that
[12:26] <Bacta> Tyrath: I can do that?
[12:26] <meganox> sajuuk: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=361124&page=19
[12:26] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: i just now chrooted into ubuntu partition and ran update-grub
[12:26] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: you shouldn't do that
[12:26] <Tyrath> Bacta: I think there's a key you can press which allows you to uncheck package installs off the splash screen
[12:27] <Tyrath> Bacta: I'm not 100 percent sure what it is tho, it should say somewhere at splash
[12:27] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: hmm... but there was no other way to run update-grub as # grub people said to do so
[12:27] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: when yu boot, do you get teh grub menu, yes/no
[12:27] <Vinceman> ikonia the sudo credential has expired
[12:27] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: ya i do get it
[12:27] <ikonia> Vinceman: good, now try opening your user admin
[12:27] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: ooh you do
[12:28] <Tyrath> Bacta: there also should be an install line and you could delete a few options off the line (possibly not a good idea unless you know exactly what you're doing)
[12:28] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: :) thats why i said its due to UUID's :)
[12:28] <sajuuk> guys im gonna follow this
[12:28] <sajuuk> http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Xorg_RandR_1.2
[12:28] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: in that case, yes, the uuid's in the menu.list, manually update them, or change them to /dev/sda1 for example
[12:28] <Vinceman> there's an unlock version
[12:28] <Bacta> thanks guys :) will do a media check
[12:28] <ikonia> Vinceman: great
[12:28] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: ok :)
[12:28] <sajuuk> and see how that goes, soz for punct with enter key

[12:29] <meganox> sajuuk: good link, once you work out what xrandr comands you need it's easy to write a wrapper scipt
[12:29] <Tyrath> ActionParsnip1: thanks anyhow
[12:29] <ActionParsnip1> Tyrath: try #ubuntu-dev
[12:29] <x-kent> can anyone help ?
[12:29] <Tyrath> is anyone good at reading a make fail?
[12:30] <Tyrath> !#ubuntu-dev
[12:30] <sajuuk> except that i dont see wot im meant to be seeing in my xorg file
[12:30] <ikonia> Tyrath: what are you trying to make
[12:30] <ActionParsnip1> Tyrath: /j #ubuntu-dev
[12:30] <ActionParsnip1> Tyrath: its a channel
[12:30] <Tyrath> ikonia: gspcav1
[12:30] <meganox> sajuuk: section the virtual screen in the link you posted
[12:30] <Tyrath> ActionParsnip1: I've been on IRC for years, I realise this. but thanks :P
[12:30] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: UUID's of all or only ubuntu's?
[12:31] <ikonia> Tyrath the webcam drivers
[12:31] <sajuuk> meganox, what?  I dont understand
[12:31] <ActionParsnip1> Tyrath: then why did you try a factoid?
[12:31] <ikonia> arvind_khadri just do ubuntu first
[12:31] <Tyrath> ActionParsnip1: I was more after what the channel was for :P
[12:31] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: you can fix the rest once they are working
[12:31] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: :) yaa
[12:31] <ActionParsnip1> Tyrath: i see. i'd have gone and read the welcome
[12:31] <Tyrath> ikonia: that's it

[12:31] <ActionParsnip1> wow thats nifty
[12:32] <Tyrath> ActionParsnip1: what?
[12:32] <sajuuk> oh as in copy paste the virtual screen in?
[12:32] <x-kent> how can I disable alt window dragging ???
[12:32] <meganox> sajuuk: Virtual should be the only thing you need to add to xorg.conf.  you need to see if your screens will fit within the max allowed by your graphics card, probably easier one below the other
[12:32] <x-kent> help !
[12:32] <ActionParsnip1> ikonia: we have to be channel ops to do that
[12:32] <ikonia> ActionParsnip1: nah, shouldn't need to be
[12:33] <ActionParsnip1> ikonia: its what pidgin told me

I've made a number of requests for a new one, clearly outlining what has happened but they all constantly get denied. Is there anything else that can be done, or should I just give up?
[12:44] <dmulholland> ActionParsnip1, skill not showing after killall nm-applet and then launching from terminal shows no errors but also no applet

[12:45] <scientes__> also i get get my ubuntu to route ipv6 right again
[12:45] <snek> question about ubuntu64: is there any benefit to running the 64bit version instead of the 32bit version on a server if it has less than 4gb ram or is the speed increase negligible?
[12:46] <sajuuk> how can I test my vga card's max resolution?
[12:46] <scientes__> if you set up a tunnel with a netmask shouldnt it just be able to set routes up automatically?
[12:46] <Slart> snek: I think you'll do fine with 32-bit.. at least I don't know of a reason
[12:46] <ActionParsnip1> dmulholland: if you run the ps command again you will see the leftmost value is its PID
[12:46] <scientes__> and ip doesnt want to take my routes
[12:46] <Slart> snek: I still use 64bit myself.. but that's just for the coolness factor ;)
[12:46] <dmulholland> ActionParsnip1, nm-applet isn't running
[12:46] <ActionParsnip1> snek: if you are encoding / decoding stuff then 64bit is advantageous
[12:46] <ActionParsnip1> dmulholland: hmm
[12:47] <Tyrath> ikonia: http://pastebin.ca/1275809
[12:47] <snek> Slart: yeah I run 64bit on my desktop since it has 4gb, but my little download server runs 32bit and was just thinking all of a sudden if there would be any use to upgrading it
[12:47] <jmonreal> hey guys, i have a core2 duo with heron 64bits, and having a problem to recognize de 4gb of ram
[12:47] <dmulholland> ActionParsnip1, only think that comes up is /usr/sbin/nm-system-settings --config /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf
[12:47] <jmonreal> only sees 3gb
[12:47] <meganox> sajuuk: i don't know where to find the max Virtual resolution your card supports though
[12:47] <ikonia> Tyrath: got it
[12:47] <snek> jmonreal: you might have to change something in your bios
[12:47] <jmonreal> like what?
[12:47] <sajuuk> meh i just go with 2048 x 2048
[12:47] <jmonreal> snek, ?
[12:47] <sajuuk> see wot happens
[12:47] <meganox> sajuuk: you may only be able to stack your screens one above the other if they are wide
[12:47] <Slart> jmonreal: run "uname -a" in a terminal.. paste the results here if it's only one line
[12:47] <ActionParsnip1> dmulholland: try killing nm-applet and renaming its config file, then rerunning. you will have to reconfigure your connection
[12:47] <snek> jmonreal: errrr i will have to look that one up, one sec
[12:47] <Tyrath> ikonia: sweet. and no worries about the phone ;)
[12:48] <sajuuk> they are both 15"
[12:48] <sajuuk> 1024 is max
[12:48] <nil> hi!
[12:48] <meganox> 2048 x 2048 will probably work
[12:48] <sajuuk> yeah
[12:48] <meganox> good luck
[12:48] <sajuuk> lets reboot :D
[12:49] <meganox> or just logout ;)
[12:49] <ikonia> Tyrath first warning is it's looking for  header that doesn't exist, which explains (maybe) why it has unknown functions
[12:49] <sajuuk> yeah...
[12:49] <snek> jmonreal: something like this: Go into the bios and enable the memory hole for 4 GB support. This option is located in CPU Configuration->Memory Settings->Memory Configuration->Hardware Memory Hole <- set this to enabled.
[12:49] <sajuuk> lol it wouldn't let me save

[12:56] <snek> lianimator: open a terminal and type "free -m" and it will tell you how much you have.. if it doesn't find the full 4GB you might need to change something in the BIOS

[12:59] <ikonia> Tyrath: and sometimes if a software is not well maintained they may not keep up to date with changes in the kernel so 2.6.11 or greater it works with, but anything over 2.6.20 it may fail
[12:59] <sajuuk> At the moment my laptop monitor is the 'left' but i want it to be the right
[12:59] <ikonia> lunaphyte_: because your dns can't resolve the hostname,
[13:00] <ataufik> thx for quick response everyone
[13:00] <snek> lianimator: if you want to use the full 4gb without problems it is recommended to use 64bit
[13:00] <sajuuk> can i do the changes in resolution manager?
[13:00] <lianimator> snek: ah. then.... it's fine right? I'm not actually wasting any?? 3GB is more than enough for me I think.. I'll use only about 2GB
[13:00] <jrib> lunaphyte_: because it's just a warning.  Apache should be starting anyway
[13:00] <meganox> jrib: can i just set perms on the mount point while it's mounted?  thought i needed to set uid and umask in mount options
[13:00] <Tyrath> ikonia: i tried installing the old version via a make and still it couldn't find the headers :/. i'm going to apt the headers and see what luck I have
[13:01] <ikonia> Tyrath apt the headers ? do you know what package they are in ?
[13:01] <sken> does anybody know how can i convert videos to mp3 in ubuntu 8..10?
[13:01] <snek> lianimator: well, it is still a small waste i guess, plus the 64bit version is a bit faster in general.. but if you will never use that much it won't make too much difference
[13:01] <lunaphyte_> jrib: yeah, it does - but with wrong info, breaking things like rewriting in certain cases and use of certain envvars.
[13:01] <ikonia> sken: mencoder
[13:01] <jrib> meganox: yes, you have to set the permissions while it's mounted and you do it to the mount point (and anything under it).  uid and gid options make no sense for ext3 since it can handle permissions in the filesystem
[13:02] <yaser> Hi, if I want to write a HowTo related to Wireless and Networking, which place of Ubuntu Forums should I put it?
[13:02] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: nothing works here :( , can i install only lilo through alternate cd?
[13:02] <Tyrath> ikonia: it tells me sometimes... but i don't have to install them i don't think... it might be a simple symlink problem...
[13:02] <sajuuk> omg done, thx meganox you made my day
[13:02] <ikonia> arvind_khadri why do you want to install lilo
[13:02] <sken> ikonia how can i install mencoder?
[13:02] <rohdef> how do I make my laptop work with a projector
[13:02] <lianimator> snek: thanks :)
[13:02] <ikonia> sken: it's part of the mplayer package
[13:02] <sajuuk> meganox, my hat is off to you
[13:02] <lianimator> rohdef: what's your vga card?
[13:02] <jrib> lunaphyte_: you should check the apache docs on what that should be.  I guess hostname works, but there are probably cases where you'd want something else.  #apache probably knows more
[13:02] <meganox> sajuuk: glad it worked, i crashed X when i did it ;)
[13:02] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: is it not good to install that?
[13:02] <sken> so?
[13:02] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: you need to start giving more info instead of just keep saying "it doesn't work" I can't help you with "it doesn't work"
[13:02] <snek> yaser: Tutorials & Tips would be a good place I think: http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=100
[13:02] <rohdef> lianimator, Intel something, it's an onboard
[13:02] <sajuuk> i did that two days ago, i was prepared to do it
[13:02] <sajuuk> good night all :D
[13:03] <yaser> snek, thk
[13:03] <ataufik> another question of WMV, currently I just installed VLC and Mplayer...  can I remove it and just use Totem?
[13:03] <lianimator> rohdef: how are you going to connect the projector to the laptop?
[13:03] <jrib> snek: ffmpeg would be another converting program
[13:03] <rohdef> lianimator, normal VGA-cable
[13:03] <sken> i have installed mencoder ikonia
[13:03] <sken> i mean mplayer ikonia
[13:03] <lianimator> rohdef: the blue big thing?
[13:03] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: the same error came up after i changed the UUID's ,error 17, and now i have fixed the MBR so that atleast i can boot into Windows
[13:03] <EZAS> Nvidia  restricted drivers + reboot = black screen (8.04) - If I got to recovery, I will be able to see the login screen again, but then teh driver is disabled .. PLEASE HELP... please
[13:03] <sken> does anybody know how can i convert videos to mp3 in ubuntu 8..10?
[13:03] <EZAS> using an 8800GT 512MB
[13:03] <rohdef> lianimator, eh? What blue thing?
[13:03] <Matrix2323> Plz help dont run Windows Media center
[13:04] <ActionParsnip1> ataufik: sure, you can remove anything you want that you don't need
[13:04] <ikonia> arvind_khadri right get back to how you where with grub not working, then boot into a livecd, and lets fix this
[13:04] <Tyrath> ikonia: ok i just checked the location of the headers it was checking and oddly i already have those headers installed...
[13:04] <jrib> sken: ffmpeg or mencoder...
[13:04] <meganox> jrib: thanks, my vfat USB drive was my only reference point.  there are no default options for ext2/3 in gconf.  of course there aren't!
[13:04] <lianimator> rohdef: normal vga cable.. like a monitor?
[13:04] <ActionParsnip1> Matrix2323: huh?
[13:04] <ikonia> Tyrath check the location to see ifi t's in the include path
[13:04] <sken> jrib which is better?
[13:04] <jeaton> i installed ubuntu a little while ago, and now im unable to boot back into windows, it's still an option under GRUB, but it just says "starting up"
[13:04] <rohdef> lianimator, yes like an old monitor, new digital monitors (like most lcd-monitors use DVI)
[13:05] <Matrix2323> Ubuntu with wine dont run Windows media center, dont use my tuner tv
[13:05] <chiliblue_> jeaton you get as far as the windows splash screen
[13:05] <ActionParsnip1> jeaton: check your /boot/grub/menu.lst is correct
[13:05] <Tyrath> ikonia: actually it says i must have read/write access to my kernal source tree
[13:05] <tdreyer1> why does nautilus randomly start using 100% of my cpu?
[13:05] <snek> Matrix2323: yeah i doubt that's going to work at all... you want to use a native Linux application
[13:05] <jrib> sken: depends on your criteria of course.  Both will get the job done.  ffmpeg is newer and I tend to use that
[13:05] <Tyrath> ikonia: do you know where the source tree is?
[13:05] <ActionParsnip1> Matrix2323: xbmc can do all that, WMC is a windows app
[13:05] <lianimator> rohdef: not sure on an intel card.. thought it might be nvidia.
[13:05] <sken> jrib how can i install ffmpeg
[13:05] <ikonia> Tyrath: /usr/src
[13:06] <snek> Matrix2323: MythTV might be another option
[13:06] <jrib> snek: use APT
[13:06] <jeaton> chiliblue_: no, only the next screen after grub, where it just says "starting up.."
[13:06] <snek> jrib: you keep using my nick, but you mean someone else :P
[13:06] <Tyrath> ikonia: and I just chmod u+rw /usr/src ?
[13:06] <ikonia> Tyrath: it is complaining about that header though, in clear english
[13:06] <jrib> snek, sken: wow, you're right
[13:06] <ikonia> Tyrath: why are you looking at permissisons when the error is in clear english
[13:07] <Tyrath> ikonia: i'm trying to install the older driver. and the stack dump is saying i need read/write privs
[13:07] <Matrix2323> but dont run in wine or crossover, for is very good
[13:07] <ikonia> Tyrath look in /usr/src
[13:07] <sken> jrib how can install ffmpeg?
[13:07] <jeaton> ActionParsnip1: /boot/grub/menu.list should be correct, but i can paste it along with fdisk -l if you like?
[13:07] <Tyrath> ikonia: it's there
[13:07] <jrib> sken: use APT (apt-get or Synaptic)
[13:07] <ActionParsnip1> jeaton: sure, put it in the same paste
[13:08] <ActionParsnip1> Matrix2323: xbmc is a similar app, if you want WMC, use windows
[13:08] <sken> jrib i installed it via command but ffmpeg didn't appear in menu
[13:08] <Matrix2323> in virtual box working good windows media center??
[13:09] <jrib> sken: it's command line
[13:09] <hmw> ActionParsnip1 i give up, this is way too complicated, and i dont even have similar folders/file names. no "application/x-executeable" at all
[13:09] <ActionParsnip1> Matrix2323: ive not used it in that context, give it a try. id use xbmc instead
[13:09] <ActionParsnip1> hmw: i dont use gnome so i cant give first hand experience help
[13:10] <Tyrath> ikonia: what's bizarre is it tells me the header directory is rwxrwxrwx - meaning all privs granted unless i'm mistaken
[13:10] <ikonia> Tyrath: can you show me the exact error message please
[13:10] <chiliblue_> what is the name of ubuntu 8.10?
[13:10] <chiliblue_> is it still hardy
[13:10] <ikonia> chiliblue_: no
[13:10] <jrib> chiliblue_: intrepid ibex
[13:10] <meganox> chiliblue_: Intrepid Ibex
[13:10] <chiliblue_> intrepid thanks
[13:10] <Pici> chiliblue_: Intrepid Ibex
[13:10] <hmw> ActionParsnip1 as there are many people wanting similar things, i guess they will create a GUI solution sometime. I will practise my patience meanwhile ;-) thanks again.
[13:10] <ikonia> chiliblue_: intrepid ibex
[13:11] <ActionParsnip1> hmw: give it a looking into if you get bored
[13:11] <meganox> jrib: to pick up my changed disk labels, do i need to restart hal?  I don't wan to reboot
[13:11] <sken> jrib i installed ffmpeg via synaptic but it doesn't appear on the menu
[13:11] <chfwiggum> !ot
[13:12] <Joseph_K> Need some help getting the Intel 3945 ABG wireless device to work in Kubuntu 8.10 - driver (module) is loaded, 'wlan0' appears, but lshw reports that the device is disabled.  There is no RF killswitch (except maybe Fn-F5), so... what do I do?
[13:12] <ActionParsnip1> chiliblue_: if you run lsb_release -a | grep -i code you will see what codename you have installed
[13:12] <Ashgadgets> hello
[13:12] <sken> pici pici firfirici
[13:12] <Ashgadgets> i need the help
[13:12] <jrib> sken: it's command line, not in the menu
[13:12] <hmw> ActionParsnip1 i just wanted to install a game and wanted exe files to be marked differently. i should be able to solve it, but not now. i want to play now and hack tomorrow *g*
[13:12] <Matrix2323> linux is for losseer!!
[13:12] <_sdf_ra_> anyone?
[13:12] <Ashgadgets> my apt is broken
[13:12] <jrib> Matrix2323: do you have a question about ubuntu support?
[13:12] <jrib> or that
[13:12] <Pici> sken: And the point of that was?
[13:12] <chiliblue_> thanks ActionParsnip1
[13:13] <sken> soo how can i use ffmpeg jrib
[13:13] <Terje_hansen> irssi
[13:13] <fightskillz> Need some help editing a file that 'i am not the owner of'
[13:13] <Tyrath> ikonia: http://pastebin.ca/1275830
[13:13] <sken> pici for a joke men pici in my language means peach
[13:13] <jrib> meganox: well the labels should be changed right away.  You just need to remount them.  With external disks you could just plug them in again.  Not sure what to do with the internal ones
[13:13] <hmw> fightskillz you can use "sudo gedit <filename>"
[13:13] <Ashgadgets> my apt is broken!
[13:13] <Pici> !gksudo | hmw fightskillz
[13:14] <meganox> jrib: will just logout
[13:14] <ActionParsnip1> hmw: use gksudo for gui apps dude
[13:14] <jrib> sken: ffmpeg -i infile outfile
[13:14] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: ok i am in the live cd and yeah i have made the linux disk to boot first now
[13:14] <ActionParsnip1> hmw: sudo gedit is not advised
[13:14] <jeaton> Action http://rafb.net/p/3vH52y16.html
[13:14] <jrib> Ashgadgets: /how/ is it broken?
[13:14] <hmw> ActionParsnip1 thanks... didnt know yet
[13:14] <jeaton> ActionParsnip1:
[13:14] <ikonia> Tyrath: thats not an error, thats just a warning
[13:14] <Ashgadgets> jrib: seg faults
[13:14] <hmw> ActionParsnip1 but sudo vim would have been ok, right?
[13:14] <ikonia> arvind_khadri mega, so pastebin your menu.list from your machine (not the liveCD) and lets work it through
[13:15] <ALLi> FXG
[13:15] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: ok just a sec
[13:15] <kebomix> hello, i cant upgrade from ubuntu 8.04 to ubuntu 8,10 by ubuntu 8.10 cd ?
[13:15] <fightskillz> thanks all
[13:15] <tdreyer1> kebomix: yes
[13:15] <Jack_Sparrow> kebomix only with the alt
[13:15] <_sdf_ra_> anyone?
[13:15] <tdreyer1> kebomix: sorry, misread :
[13:15] <Ashgadgets> jrib: anything that can be done?
[13:16] <ActionParsnip1> jeaton: looks fine
[13:16] <ActionParsnip1> !grub | jeaton
[13:16] <jeaton> any ideas?
[13:16] <ActionParsnip1> jeaton: that may help some
[13:16] <sken> no such file or directory jrib
[13:16] <kebomix> i pressed alt+f2 and typed gksu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade" like ubuntu.com says , and it show me screen to type password then nothing happens !
[13:16] <Tyrath> ikonia: ah k. so what where the errors down the bottom?
[13:16] <jeaton> ill check it out, thanks
[13:16] <jrib> Ashgadgets: pastebin the exact command and output.  And describe any ideas you have (ie what are the last things you did before the problem arose)
[13:17] <jrib> sken: error messages without commands are half as useful as error messages with commands
[13:17] <jrib> !paste > sken
[13:17] <fightskillz> wait now i'm getting "Please check that you typed the location correctly and try again."
[13:17] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/80309/
[13:17] <remoteCTR1> gawd i hate this new network manager
[13:17] <remoteCTR1> nothing works
[13:17] <remoteCTR1> rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
[13:17] <ikonia> Tyrath well the first one that says the CFLAGS was changed, you may want to fix that, then you need to see more lines above what you've pasteed to find out the problem
[13:17] <fightskillz> oh wait, that's probably my fault hold on
[13:17] <Tyrath> ikonia: how could I do that?
[13:18] <fightskillz> ya ok thanks it works
[13:18] <Sapient> Hi, I am trying to pipe output of a command to "less", but the command requires a password to be entered interactively
[13:18] <Tyrath> ikonia: that's all that appeared under me typing make in the console
[13:18] <kebomix> anybody help me here
[13:19] <Ashgadgets> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu.com/80310/
[13:19] <jrib> Sapient: you probably just won't see "Password", but you can still type it
[13:19] <julmumma> hi! i have installed package kubuntu-desktop (kde4). i didn't like it. how do I remove all that was installed?
[13:19] <cjae> how long has 8.10 been out?
[13:19] <nil> one month
[13:20] <m1dn1ght> cjae: just over a month
[13:20] <jrib> Ashgadgets: try strace, maybe someone will see something
[13:20] <Ashgadgets> jrib: strace apt-get -f install ?
[13:20] <Sapient> jrib: works, thanks
[13:20] <ikonia> Tyrath well, something in the file Makefile in the source dir changes CFLAGS, I suggest you fix that or go back to using the current version of the code
[13:21] <kebomix> i cant upgrade to ubuntu 8.10 by cd ?!!
[13:21] <erUSUL> !puregnome | julmumma
[13:21] <meganox> julmumma: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome
[13:21] <cjae> m1dn1ght, any good? I switched from ubuntu
[13:21] <ataufik> hello I am back... Just install w32codecs from medibuntu and its dependencies but the file still can't be played... any advice?
[13:21] <arvind_khadri> kebomix: use a alternate cd
[13:21] <sken> i installed ffmpeg and mencoder but doesn't appear on the menu
[13:22] <sken> any clue?
[13:22] <ikonia> arvind_khadri almost there ?
[13:22] <jrib> sken: I told you already they are command line programs...
[13:22] <cjae> m1dn1ght, @ 8.04 cause ubuntu was getting to unstable for me and switching kernels too much
[13:22] <ikonia> cjae ubuntu never switches kernel versions
[13:22] <cjae> ikonia, what
[13:22] <sken> but i don't know how to use them jrib
[13:22] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: ya i feel so... as now its correct the drives are being pointed correctly
[13:23] <ikonia> cjae ubuntu keeps the same kernel versions as when the release was launched
[13:23] <sken> any other non-command line programms
[13:23] <ikonia> arvind_khadri sorry no, I missed your link
[13:23] <jrib> sken: I told you how to use ffmpeg in a simple case.  And when you gave me an error message, I asked you to pastebin the command you used along with the error
[13:23] <DarkKnight> hey i m not finding the right driver for my printer...can anyone help
[13:23] <julmumma> erUSUL, meganox: thanks
[13:23] <Ashgadgets> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu.com/80311/
[13:23] <jerbear> i'm using freenx, and anything that uses named colors (rgb.txt) doesn't work? anyone have any ideas?
[13:24] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/80309/ here it is
[13:24] <ikonia> thanks
[13:24] <cjae> ikonia, are you sure you are no misunderstaing me cause I have clearly saw the updater do it and install more kernels links in grub
[13:24] <cjae> -s
[13:24] <sken> how can i pastebin it jrib?
[13:24] <ikonia> cjae it installs the same kernel base
[13:24] <ikonia> cjae: the base never changes
[13:24] <jrib> Ashgadgets: doesn't mean much to me, don't know
[13:24] <jrib> !paste > sken
[13:25] <m1dn1ght> cjae: I still use 8.04 because I have some dodgy hardware that intrepid doesn't like
[13:25] <arvind_khadri> !alternate > kebomix
[13:25] <Ashgadgets> jrib: does it have anything to do with the distro not getting updated?
[13:25] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: my advice to you would be - just to get this working change the root=UUID=blah line to root=/dev/sda7 or what ever the correct option is
[13:25] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: then once it's booted - change it tot he correct uuid
[13:25] <ataufik> hello I am back... Just install w32codecs from medibuntu and its dependencies but the WMV file still can't be played in Totem... any advice?
[13:25] <sken> i pasted it jrib
[13:25] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: and before doing that install grub again to where?
[13:26] <meganox> cjae: they are security and stability updates and are recommended to install. should not break anything
[13:26] <jrib> sken: give us the url
[13:26] <ikonia> arvind_khadri exactly as you had it before
[13:26] <sken> what url?
[13:26] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: to the place where windows is present right?
[13:26] <psicobra> hi all
[13:26] <snek> ataufik: have you tried playing it with VLC? it seems pretty good at WMV files these days from what I could tell just a few days ago when I tested it
[13:26] <sken> what url jrib?
[13:26] <ikonia> arvind_khadri no, the root option needs to be where ubuntu was (1,6) and the other the boot drive mbr (hd0)
[13:26] <jrib> sken: that you got when you pasted it
[13:26] <psicobra> i have just installed a sound card with optical out spdif how do i make it work?
[13:27] <jerbear> i'm using freenx, and anything that uses named colors (rgb.txt) doesn't work? anyone have any ideas?
[13:27] <wisnut> Intrepid 64 - anyone know of a real fix for java crashing firefox?
[13:27] <Jim_Raynor> Howdy, boys
[13:27] <ataufik> snek : hahaha... I just remove VLC and Mplayer, I thought w32codecs can resolve the problem of playing WMV play with Totem
[13:27] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: ok as the present situation goes ubuntu is in (0,6) so the mbr would be in?
[13:27] <snek> ataufik: oh ok haha
[13:27] <creek23_> what cvs gui do you use?
[13:27] <snek> ataufik: one moment, i will see if they play in totem on my machine at home
[13:27] <cjae> meganox, ya I know but was annoying and on occaision it did mess stuff up
[13:27] <jrib> Ashgadgets: I doubt it.  Did you try googling 'apt-get segfault'.  I think I've seen someone asking about this before, so you might get some hits that can give you some ideas
[13:27] <creek23_> hello. what cvs gui do you guys use?
[13:27] <Jim_Raynor> I upgraded to 8.10 and now I can't connect to encrypted networks
[13:27] <ikonia> arvind_khadri I thought ubuntu was on your hd1 drive
[13:27] <Jim_Raynor> even WEP ones
[13:27] <Jim_Raynor> :/
[13:28] <jrib> creek23_: who still uses cvs? :/
[13:28] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: i have fixed the mbr so that windows boots and windows is in the second drive....
[13:28] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: i changed the booting order so that windows could boot
[13:28] <Ashgadgets> jrib: will see that
[13:28] <ikonia> arvind_khadri right so it's hd0,7 for the root,
[13:28] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: which drive is the default boot device
[13:28] <ataufik> snek : the error message was :   "The stream is encrypted and decription is not supported"
[13:29] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: the drive which has linux.... (as of now)
[13:29] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: thats hd0
[13:29] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: setup is (hd0) then too
[13:29] <Lartza_> how can you run program from terminal so it wont close when you close terminal?
[13:29] <snek> ataufik: ah you are trying to stream a file? or is it a stream you ripped to your hdd?
[13:29] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: ok so root(hd0,6) setup(hd0)
[13:29] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: then change the UUID in menu.lst
[13:29] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: that looks good
[13:30] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: right?
[13:30] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: thats tright
[13:30] <wisnut> removed gcj 4.3 base, same problem, disable "java" in FF preferences, all seems to be well except now any java application doesn't run. . . . .
[13:30] <jrib> Lartza_: disown the job after you run it (COMMAND & disown), or use nohup (nohup COMMAND), or use screen
[13:30] <jrib> !screen > Lartza_

[13:33] <endo602> anyone here use optical out for audio?
[13:34] <matrix223> Fedora is great,
[13:34] <ataufik> snek : okay... I will do update
[13:34] <Jim_Raynor> It used to work fine on the Heron... I know that I'm not alone on that one, right people?
[13:34] <kebomix> hmw: yes
[13:34] <snek> ataufik: gstreamer plugins are what totem uses to play media files in general
[13:34] <wisnut> okay - so has anyone had issues with java on FF, Intrepid 64, tried posted 'fixes' and nothing works?
[13:34] <ActionParsnip1> matrix223: i find it bloated but if it works for yuo then cool :)
[13:34] <rimas123> meganox : thanks, but i dont have alt cd and my optical drive isnt working:)
[13:34] <hmw> kebomix if you already have the compiz settings manager installed, you just need to activate the plugin "Place Windows" afair
[13:34] <ActionParsnip1> wisnut: use icedtea
[13:35] <snek> ActionParsnip1: you're right, i forgot about that function in IRC.. haven't used it in years :)
[13:35] <ataufik> snek : can I use this syntax : apt-get install gstreamer0.10* to install all gstreamer codec?
[13:36] <snek> ataufik: hmm that would install a bit too much i think.. one sec i'll make a pastebin for ya
[13:36] <Lartza_> will deb package for debian sid work in gutsy?
[13:36] <wisnut> when i run 'java -version' I show IcedTea6 1.3.1 (6b12-0ubuntu6) Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_0-b12)

[13:37] <Lartza_> will deb package for debian sid work in gutsy?
[13:37] <Jim_Raynor> come on, guys... throw me a little attention here!

[13:37] <wisnut> default, demo print, divx, gcj (i think this is the problem), quick time, shockware, totem, windows media player
[13:37] <reqqit> 'sup guys - so, on modems, screw my conexant winmodem - are there supported USB hardware Fax/Modems?

[13:38] <Jim_Raynor> I can't connect to encrypted wifi networks since I upgraded to the Ibex
[13:38] <ActionParsnip1> jurism: broadcast is the broadcast address, network is the network address
[13:38] <jrib> sken: yes, that's how you use it
[13:38] <snek> ataufik: sudo aptitude install gstreamer0.10-plugins-base gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-good gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
[13:38] <rom_> oh putain

[13:38] <Jim_Raynor> It worked fine before... also, clean install offers the same result
[13:38] <kebomix> hmw: thx that worked
[13:38] <ActionParsnip1> jurism: in a class c network, the last octet will be 255 for broadcast and 0 for network
[13:38] <Jim_Raynor> No encrypted networking for Raynor

[13:39] <jrib> Lartza_: right
[13:39] <never2far> hi ...i tried to make a cron ...but it doesn't work ..also tried to restart crond from /etc/init.d/crond restart
[13:39] <never2far> any one have a clue ?
[13:39] <tiyowan> reqqit: Check out the list, find a compatible modem, and you're all set.
[13:39] <snek> ataufik: i don't have that installed, but if my line doesn't help you could try it
[13:39] <Lartza_> he is updating but not sure will it be 1.4.6
[13:39] <ActionParsnip1> jurism: <IP_ADDRESS>/24 would have a subnet mask <IP_ADDRESS> network 192.168.0,0 and broadcast <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:39] <tiyowan> Jim_Raynor: What wireless card are you using?
[13:39] <ataufik> snek : okay... will try one by one then...
[13:40] <student> 嗨
[13:40] <terramoto> i followed the wiki guide but it didnt change the splash screen :\
[13:40] <Jim_Raynor> Broadcomm
[13:40] <snek> ataufik: the weird thing is totem asks me if it can't play a file if i want to install the codec.. it doesn't do that for you? (i'm running 8.10)
[13:40] <endo602> I am having a problem gettin gmy optical out for my xfi audio card to work, the analog jacks work
[13:40] <Jim_Raynor> Anyway, tiyowan... it worked fine with the Heron
[13:40] <jurism> <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>? I am runnning windows XP + virtualbox+ ubuntu server and I am trying to host a web server on Ubuntu. I will try Your settings :)
[13:40] <student> 哈囉
[13:41] <jrib> !tw | student
[13:41] <snek> endo602: optical under linux is a problem, let alone x-fi optical.. you're lucky it even works with analog plugs, the drivers are brand new
[13:41] <kebomix> guys , i did instructions on this page http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=ipw2200 and i lost my wireless connection ?!!!
[13:41] <sken> http://paste.ubuntu.com/80331/
[13:41] <ataufik> snek & ActionParsnip1 : gstreamer0.10-pitfdll installed and still can't play the WMV, I will try snek's advice
[13:41] <Jim_Raynor> WPA, WEP... no issues on that version... BUT when I updated to Ibex, game over man!
[13:41] <sken> jrib didn't work
[13:41] <tiyowan> Jim_Raynor: hold on
[13:41] <endo602> snek should i just stay with windows until its resolved?
[13:41] <azfira> ibe_kom
[13:42] <snek> endo602: yeah, x-fi is nowhere near complete support under linux
[13:42] <jrib> sken: you need to be in the directory that youtube.YouTube_-_eisai_sto_myalo_kati_magiko.flv is in
[13:42] <ActionParsnip1> jurism: yeah the ip will be 192.168.2.x with netmask <IP_ADDRESS>. network <IP_ADDRESS>. broadcast <IP_ADDRESS>
[13:42] <endo602> sounds like the best advice i heard in awhile
[13:42] <endo602> i got ubuntu running on a vm
[13:42] <endo602> under vista
[13:42] <endo602> and the sound works
[13:42] <sken> you mean to copy paste the video in command  line jrib?
[13:42] <endo602> but i will leave it at that
[13:43] <snek> endo602: it's using the vmware driver then, that's different
[13:43] <jurism> OK. do I need to add DNS server as local IP or my ISP DNS server IP?
[13:43] <jrib> sken: no, I mean you are now in ~ (/home/dimitris) in the command line.  But your video is not in ~, it is somewhere else right?  You want to 'cd' to that directory that it is in
[13:43] <sken> explain jrib
[13:43] <meganox> jurism: router IP if you have a router
[13:43] <tiyowan> Jim_Raynor: Could you open up a terminal and type iwconfig and see what it says please.
[13:43] <jurism> ok, thank You!
[13:43] <sken> i don't understand jrib explain
[13:44] <jrib> sken: where is the video?  What folder?
[13:44] <Tyrath> ikonia: thanks for the help, i'll fiddle around a bit and see how i go

[13:46] <Dabbu> ikonia: i have installed MySQL and start it from init.d but don't know how to proceed ?
[13:46] <jrib> sken: then run your command again
[13:46] <ajax4> jrib: Thanks
[13:47] <ikonia> Dabbu you asked for a gui, I'pici has just told you the name of the gui package
[13:47] <snek> ataufik: hmm ok, but then it WILL play EVERYTHING hehe
[13:47] <ikonia> I/pici

[13:48] <Flynsarmy> Are there any firewalls for linux that have allow/deny popups like the windows ones?
[13:48] <tiyowan> Jim_Raynor: Everything seems to be fine. Do you know the hex key of the network you're trying to connect to? We could try connecting to it manually to narrow down the problem.

[14:05] <Jack_Sparrow> shyam_k the ethernet is a $5 problem, get a card that is supported well.  the printer is another issue.  There is a reason they give away canon printers free with a purchase, canon knows what they are worth.

[14:07] <ActionParsnip1> ataufik: ive never set this up, i can only give links man
[14:07] <ataufik> ActionParsnip1 : ok... nws
[14:08] <ActionParsnip1> ataufik: maybe someone else can help, or try later on
[14:08] <riz0n> after i kill Xvnc in ubuntu, how can i restart it?
[14:08] <shyam_k> Jack_Sparrow: thanks a lott. /me reading those links.. i am looking only for free software solutions.. hmm he will have to change;-)
[14:09] <shyam_k> ActionParsnip1: thanks i had a play with the printer when he was having lenny..it seem i have to repeaet the same here too..
[14:09] <[c0re]> hi is there any apps for read/write sms for GC89
[14:09] <shyam_k> ActionParsnip1: thanks ill check it up.
[14:09] <riz0n> i figured it out, xinetd
[14:09] <ActionParsnip1> shyam_k: theres a driver you can compile
[14:09] <zaraki_sama> ataufik, i use an GT fusion from option its a PCMCIA modem, when i pluged in intrepid automatically recognized it, then we choose our country and the provider, if the provider not exist i pick one and setting up the provider manually
[14:10] <shyam_k> ActionParsnip1: yeah i had a try on that for lenny..it should be ok with the printer now.. can only try it out by this weekend..
[14:10] <ataufik> zaraki_sama : can you setup the connection profile with your modem into NM manager?
[14:10] <Flynsarmy> Jack_Sparrow, Is the answer to my question 'no' ?
[14:10] <shyam_k> as shown here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=382598 its wierd with lspci it dont tell about the ethernet controller at all!!!!

[14:14] <Jack_Sparrow> jokkaa you are offtopic, but games are always a good place to start.
[14:14] <riz0n> Just curious, I want to create a script that is capable of determining the process # identified from ps -A | grep Xvnc, then kill it, anyone have any pointers on what i should do to make this work

[14:15] <jonsmith1982> so i've just installed ubuntu and realised i need a newer ath5k driver, any tips on compiling the kernel for ubuntu?
[14:15] <Jack_Sparrow> !compile
[14:15] <hmw> what could it be, when i hear a sinus tone with a frequency different at different refresh rates? i turned down the volume but the tune stays
[14:15] <Joe2> Hmm, those sites are only telling me stuff I've already tried. I don't have issues with "no sound", it's just that the sound is corrupted now :-( It was fine before the upgrade but now I get screwed up audio. Some bits of left, some bits of right, some low freqs, some high freqs. It's just garbled :-(
[14:15] <hmw> i've got a CRT
[14:15] <rchase> ActionParsnip1: I am really sorry about that, it was a putty screw up :(
[14:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Joe2 /j #alsa and they will show you how to reinstall the alsa sound driver
[14:16] <zaraki_sama> ataufik, my device worked fine with hardy and intrepid, and yes i can setup my ISP profile manually with NM
[14:16] <Joe2> OK. It's likely to be alsa rather than pulse then?
[14:16] <tiyowan> Joe2: Have you tried terminal -> killall pulseaudio ?
[14:16] <ActionParsnip1> rchase: its ok amn, just use pastebin next time and we're all cool :)
[14:16] <rchase> yeah, that's what I meant to do:
[14:16] <Jack_Sparrow> hmw high pitched sounds coming from your crt are not a good sign
[14:17] <riz0n> ok then let me ask this, when using ps -A, is there another switch i can use that will limit the output to ONLY the pid
[14:17] <thiebaude_> just switching from pidgin to xchat
[14:17] <rchase> Could somebody look at this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/80339/ and tell me if sda5 & sda6 are logical partitions within /sda3?  Just need another set of eyes.
[14:17] <hmw> Jack_Sparrow they come from the speakers
[14:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Joe2 Pulse has its own set of issues.
[14:17] <rchase> I set this up a long time ago, and can't remember if my /home partition is /sda5.  I am preparing to install intrepid.
[14:17] <Joe2> I did do that, but it didn't make any diff, or rather, I just lose audio altogether.
[14:17] <Jack_Sparrow> hmw k
[14:17] <hmw> only at 1280 i cant hear any. probably freq too high
[14:17] <ataufik> zaraki_sama : that is my problem, can setup my profile with NM. therefore, I have to manually run wvdial

[14:17] <ataufik> zaraki_sama : that is my problem, can NOT setup my profile with NM. therefore, I have to manually run wvdial
[14:17] <rchase> ActionParsnip1: thx
[14:18] <hmw> Jack_Sparrow and its defintively a clean sine wave
[14:18] <Joe2> I went from 8.04 kubuntu to 8.10 ubuntu (via dist upgrade then ubuntu-desktop). So pulse wasn't in the equation before?
[14:18] <zaraki_sama> ataufik, the very 1st thing NM will let you choose your country and ISP provider, yoy have done that?
[14:18] <ActionParsnip1> lxuserNewbie: most mics plug into the soundcard, get the soundcard configured and you can use any
[14:18] <tiyowan> on5sl: sda1-4 are always primary partitions. Everything above is logical.

[14:19] <rchase> oh that's got it.  thx people.  sorry for the flood, i hate putty.
[14:19] <javaJake> Anyone know how to stop Flash from getting sound at all? It seems to lock up whenever it doesn't get what it wants, so I want to make it go to /dev/null or something :P

[14:26] <sken> any clue how to use mencoder?
[14:26] <outbackwifi> mib_dcmpfh in your /etc/profile
[14:27] <christianp> but it starts only if i boot from a second partition (pressing esc at bootup)
[14:27] <outbackwifi> christainp: what model?
[14:27] <christianp> how can i say to my system to use the grub into the secondary partition?
[14:27] <christianp> 900
[14:27] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: alas! the method we tried doesnt work, same error again, i have thought of installing DSL in a partition which will re-isntall grub
[14:27] <outbackwifi> christianp: make that partition active
[14:28] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: so may have stuff working that way
[14:28] <christianp> outbackwifi, how can i do this?
[14:28] <ikonia> arvind_khadri re-installing grub won't change anything
[14:28] <christianp> i can't find gparted
[14:28] <christianp> have i to install it?
[14:28] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[14:28] <outbackwifi> christian: using fdisk the "a" option toggles that flag
[14:28] <snek> Myrtti: hmm you got a point there, let me try
[14:29] <ezzieyguywuf> anytime my computer goes into standby or i suspend it, it kills the connection with my bluetooth mouse. the only way to get it back is to remove the connection completely and re-set up the connection. has anyone found a way to fix this?
[14:29] <christianp> ok, i'm trying
[14:29] <christianp> fdisk
[14:29] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: i dont want to re-install ubuntu all over again
[14:29] <mib_dcmpfh> outbackwifi: you can only do that if you have root.
[14:29] <ikonia> arvind_khadri show me your current menu.lst
[14:29] <outbackwifi> mib yas
[14:29] <mib_dcmpfh> outbackwifi: or if you sudo, which is the same.
[14:29] <mib_dcmpfh> outbackwifi: so, how to do it as a normal user?
[14:30] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: its the same as you had seen it last.... and as of now am on windows...booting into the live cd takes ages
[14:30] <Lartza_> is there any way to run ubuntu on windows without vmware
[14:30] <ikonia> arvind_khadri then it won't work if you've not changed it
[14:30] <rootsnatch> Lartza_: Is there a virtualbox for windows?
[14:30] <Lartza_> i have ubuntu on otehr partition but sometimes i need it just for some quick compiling etc
[14:30] <outbackwifi> mib: do it in your .bashrc (though not sure it will work)
[14:30] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: i did the UUID stuff
[14:30] <Lartza_> rootsnatch: thats bacsically same as vmware right?
[14:30] <ikonia> arvind_khadri I need to see how you've done it
[14:30] <Lartza_> i think it is for windows
[14:31] <rootsnatch> Lartza_: ya, same idea
[14:31] <rootsnatch> Lartza_: but I am pretty sure it is possible to run a vm from a already done partition
[14:31] <Lartza_> i found andlinux pretty confusin
[14:31] <Lartza_> and it takes extra space
[14:31] <rootsnatch> It does?
[14:31] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: i remember it well... i replaced the instances of the uuid stuff with /dev/sda7
[14:31] <tiyowan> Intrepid_Doesnt: You're using intrepid right?
[14:31] <Lartza_> well you install it, takes 2,5 or 4,5 gb
[14:31] <ikonia> arvind_khadri I'd like to see it to verify it's contents
[14:31] <mib_dcmpfh> outbackwifi: no, that doesn't work.
[14:32] <rootsnatch> I thought it just ran straight from that partion
[14:32] <Lartza_> depending on xfce or kde
[14:32] <Lartza_> atleast i dont know how to run it that way
[14:32] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: hmm please give me sometime... you will be around right?
[14:32] <ikonia> arvind_khadri should be
[14:32] <rootsnatch> google around, I am pretty sure it is possible
[14:32] <tiyowan> Intrepid_Doesnt: I think there's a compatibility issue with Broadcom and intrepid. Check out: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=959323&highlight=connect+encrypted+wireless
[14:32] <Lartza_> and i would also like it be inside windwos like graphically the whole ubuntu's desktop
[14:32] <Lartza_> ok
[14:32] <nimda2004_> это че хачовский чтоли канал?
[14:32] <outbackwifi> mib: what about .profile or even xstartuprc?
[14:32] <Intrepid_Doesnt> hmm
[14:32] <dennda> How do I install the OpenGL reference as manpages?
[14:32] <erUSUL> !ru | nimda2004_
[14:33] <Lartza_> so how will vmware or virtualbox run
[14:33] <rootsnatch> Lartza_: as far as speed?
[14:33] <Lartza_> dont they boot *.iso?
[14:33] <Intrepid_Doesnt> i was reading the forums and found some interesting solution
[14:33] <rootsnatch> well that can
[14:33] <mib_dcmpfh> outbackwifi: I don't want a list of all possible combinations. I just want one file where I can put it. Guessing is not hard. Guessing the right one is.
[14:33]  * outbackwifi like any other app
[14:34] <snek> i am trying a sudo modprobe powernow-k8 (should be right for my cpu) but the command gives a: FATAL: Error inserting powernow_k8 (/lib/modules/2.6.27-9-generic/kernel/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/powernow-k8.ko): No such device.......... the file exists in that directory though.. i get the same error for powernow-k7/k6 and even acpi-cpufreq
[14:34] <christianp> sorry... i can't find gparted in the default repos... have i to add others?
[14:34] <outbackwifi> mib: sorry i cant help you with that
[14:34] <tiyowan> Intrepid_Doesnt: I think you'll be able to find an answer on the forums. Lots of people have reported problems with broadcom and intrepid.
[14:34] <slayton> christianp, its in there just run sudo apt-get install gparted in a terminal
[14:34] <rootsnatch> Lartza_: I am pretty sure it will just boot the partition, there is some configuring needed but ya it should just go straight from the partition
[14:34] <outbackwifi> !info gparted
[14:36] <Lartza_> andlinux can get ubuntu from partition, but i wont get any desktop and its still rpetty complicated as i find the whole andlinux thing

[14:36]  * outbackwifi wonders what this andlinux thing is
[14:37] <killahop> hi all
[14:37] <outbackwifi> !hi
[14:38] <Lartza_> outbackwifi: heard of colinux?
[14:38] <on5sl> tiyowan: could be..but that's not the problem...it's my samba that is the problem
[14:38] <outbackwifi> nope
[14:38] <tiyowan> on5sl: What seems to be the problem exactly?
[14:38] <rootsnatch> Lartza_: what is colinux?
[14:39] <Lartza_> you can run linux inside windows natively
[14:39] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: can i access my linux drives from windows?
[14:39] <on5sl> tiyowan: my samba share won't mount when i'm logged in as an other user..only user bram who has sudo right can mount the share properly...
[14:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Lartza_ why would you want to do that? ugh
[14:39]  * outbackwifi has only heard of redhat debian mandrake suse ubuntu and their derivatives
[14:39] <arvind_khadri> how to access linux drives from windows?
[14:39] <ikonia> arvind_khadri I'd recommend against it
[14:39] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: ok...
[14:40] <Jack_Sparrow> on5sl I dont do samba but did you add that user to the samba group
[14:40] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: rebooting now..will be back in few minutes
[14:40] <tiyowan> arvind_khadri....better to make a small FAT32 partition for sharing stuff between Win and *nix
[14:40] <Lartza_> Jack_Sparrow: i sometimes need ubunt for some quick and fast so dont wanna reboot...
[14:40] <blip-> hi all, the following boot line isn't working to boot the .22 kernel it hangs on the part about starting boot scripts local.rc ... even though i've got the generic .22 kernel installed from the repos...  i can boot .21 with the exact same line though(by changing the 22 to 21).... any ideas ?   thanks
[14:41] <tiyowan> on5sl: I'm not experienced at all in samba...but obviously you need to change the permissions for a particular use from somewhere.
[14:41] <tiyowan> on5sl: *user
[14:41] <ataufik> zaraki_sama : i have tried that
[14:41] <azhang2110>  /join #freebsd
[14:41] <outbackwifi> arvind: explore2fs is just one way
[14:41] <zaraki_sama> user from indonesia, you can join #ubuntu-id, in irc.freenode.net
[14:41] <rootsnatch> Lartza_: also it would be nice to boot my windows partition in ubuntu
[14:42] <ataufik> zaraki_sama : are you from Indonesia too?
[14:42] <on5sl> tiyowan: yeah well i've tried to change the user right for the users but this didn't help? :(
[14:42] <Jack_Sparrow> on5sl did you see a specific group samba when you were setting users permissions
[14:43] <Jack_Sparrow> !samba
[14:43] <Lartza_> rootsnatch: you can atleast linux on windows with virtualbox
[14:43] <on5sl> Jack_Sparrow: i'll read that and try it and come back afterwards..just a sec :)
[14:44] <rootsnatch> Lartza_: but like I have a linux partition and a small windows partition and I want to do to the reverse of what you want, and I know it is possible I just haven't done the googling and configuring
[14:45] <Jack_Sparrow> rootsnatch vbox will run windows
[14:45] <jonsmith1982> where can i find a 2.26.27 ubuntu kernel?
[14:45] <Jack_Sparrow> inside ubuntu
[14:45] <Lartza_> Jack_Sparrow: but from partition?
[14:45] <rootsnatch> Jack_Sparrow: I know it will, but will it boot my windows partition that is already installed?
[14:45] <jonsmith1982> by default?
[14:45] <ikonia> jonsmith1982 it's in 8.10 by default
[14:45] <Basil> hi
[14:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Lartza_ no, it is not for running your other hd installed windows os.. it installs into ubuntu (sorta)
[14:46] <ezzieyguywuf> what do i need to do to activate my fingerprint scanner?
[14:46] <jonsmith1982> i must need a later revision then, i set this up on slackware not long ago but forgot which version i used.
[14:46] <Lartza_> you can run ubuntu partition with virtualbox
[14:46] <rootsnatch> ezzieyguywuf: what laptop do you have? I have an x61 and I got it working wonderfully with thinkfinger
[14:47] <Jack_Sparrow> jonsmith1982 lsb_release -a in term will tell
[14:47] <ezzieyguywuf> rootsnatch: i'm using a thinkpad t60p
[14:47] <rootsnatch> ezzieyguywuf: ya look into thinkfinger
[14:47] <ezzieyguywuf> rootsnatch: does that add implementations for sudo in the command line as well as for loging in?
[14:48] <lipinski> Anyone have problems with ltsp-build-client on 8.10?  I can't get it to work because the dpkg of hal fails in the chroot

[14:55] <rootsnatch> ezzieyguywuf: well on my x61 i don't have a finger pad or anything but if I want to scroll I can press down the middle button and then use the trackpoint to scroll up and down

[14:56] <krish> Lartza_ can you tell me how? I am a newbie in this
[14:56] <ezzieyguywuf> rootsnatch: yes it does
[14:57] <krish> Lartza_ is it possible by using different folder? wat about the configuration files?

[14:59] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: and root=/dev/sda7 is correct right as fdisk says that sda7 is linux drive
[14:59] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: i didnt reboot yet
[14:59] <alex_21> Does anyone know how to set up Ventrillo Server on Ubuntu
[14:59] <Ysangkok> hogar: synaptic
[14:59] <ikonia> arvind_khadri if sd7 is the linux root file system - then yes /dev/sda7 is right
[14:59] <Jack_Sparrow> hogar THe best way to install is from our repos using synaptic, or apt-get

[15:05] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: this is very weird
[15:05] <Jack_Sparrow> mrthraz I didnt think we were the support for ubuntustudio
[15:05] <jonsmith1982> things like this are much easier on slackware :|
[15:06] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: ????
[15:06] <ikonia> arvind_khadri what ?
[15:06] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: grub didnt boot
[15:06] <mrthraz> Jack_Sparrow:  "(08:46:05 AM) persia: That said, this channel mostly has knowledge about the studio apps, rather than the core functionality.  You might also want to try in #ubuntu."
[15:06] <ikonia> arvind_khadri as I said earlier you need to give more info
[15:07] <reqqit> I am sick of modems - hrm, I am trying one now that is a softlink, I setup the scanmodem, found driver, installed it, says it is making a symlink ttySL0 - but it never does
[15:07] <ikonia> arvind_khadri: didy ou get the menu screen, did you get an error
[15:07] <mrthraz> thats why im here
[15:07] <Jack_Sparrow> mrthraz Just because they dont want to support their release does not mean we should
[15:07] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: i didnt get the grub menu, windows booted as if there is no grub at all...
[15:07] <Jack_Sparrow> !mint
[15:07] <truebosko> Hi, installing Ubuntu on a new machine and its been sitting at "59% copying files ..." for about ~15 minutes. Is this normal? Mouse is still responsive.
[15:07] <ikonia> arvind_khadri it's not bootint from your linux disk then as you thought it was
[15:08] <reqqit> Jack_Sparrow, I got a modem working, but it didn't support what I needed, found another laptop, another modem, doesn't create the symlink it says it does - anyway, I've opted for a USRobotics USB modem - you think that will have any luck?
[15:08] <reqqit> or anyone who knows about modems =)
[15:08] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: hmm yaa... this is really weird... what do i do now?
[15:09] <Jack_Sparrow> reqqit not likely... but depending on the effort it takes .. worth the try
[15:09] <ikonia> arvind_khadri same thing, apply grub to hd0,7 as before but with a setup of (hd1)
[15:09] <hogar> someone know if ubuntu 5.04 brings a recordef by default
[15:09] <arvind_khadri> ikonia: ok
[15:09] <bazhang> hogar, that version is long eol
[15:09] <Jack_Sparrow> reqqit does it show up in lspci etc?
[15:09] <Jack_Sparrow> lsusb
[15:09] <mrthraz> Jack_Sparrow, these are core ubuntu problem, wifi is not a studio problem
[15:10] <reqqit> yeah, shows up on lspci, 82801DB/DBL/DBM
[15:10] <reqqit> I saw something on the site specific for that... lemme check again
[15:10] <reqqit> (*@(*@ modems
[15:10] <krish> hey how to connect to #wordpress from here?
[15:10] <bazhang> krish /j #chan
[15:10] <reqqit> I wonder if there is 3G in that remote place I am going... I don't think so, since mobile phones don't work either :((
[15:11] <Jack_Sparrow> mrthraz I understand what you are saying, but many of these other releases do things to get those apps installed that cause a ton of issues... which is why we are careful to draw a line in what we support as in the disrto we produce..
[15:11] <harvey> Hi all, I just upgraded to 8.10 and am unable to change my screen resolution....does anyone have any ideas what I should do ????
[15:11] <Jack_Sparrow> mrthraz pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list

[15:20] <DarkKnight> ikonia;sorry tht i didnt mention.....got affected by virus in XP
[15:20] <ikonia> DarkKnight so what do you want done ?
[15:20] <thiebaude> bbl
[15:21] <Jack_Sparrow> mrthraz That does not look bad...  but I need to get ready for class...
[15:21] <DarkKnight> ikonia; i dumped it in my desktop..and wen i m trying and deleting it....its not getting deleted...
[15:22] <ikonia> DarkKnight can you start talking in fact. What do you mean you "dumped it on your desktop" - did you copy the files to your desktop, or are you accessing them from your desktop, how are you trying to delete them, what file system is on the pen drive
[15:23] <hogar> yes it brings a cd burner by default
[15:23] <snek> DarkKnight: check the owner of the file using a terminal.. "ls -al" will show you some more info than usual.. you might be able to delete them with "sudo rm -f"
[15:23] <MrBlueberry> hello
[15:23] <DarkKnight> ikonia; i copied it 2 desktop.... and in the icon symbol, a lock symbol also appears...though i never put any permission rights upon it...when i delete the files...it says...permission denied
[15:24] <ikonia> DarkKnight: ok, so who is the owner of the files and what are the permissions on the file
[15:24] <MrBlueberry> can anyone help me? I like KDE but there is one little problem: is it better to install KDE on existing Ubuntu system or to install Kubuntu itself?
[15:24] <RocknRoll> hi guys
[15:24] <ikonia> MrBlueberry just install #kubuntu desktop
[15:24] <Jack_Sparrow> snek be very careful when giving out the force command that you include a path after it.. If yo pass the wrong thing to a beginner they wont know and can erase everything
[15:25] <jeaton> i had windows xp on this box, installed ubuntu, and I cannot boot to it anymore, the option is under grub, but it just says "starting up..."
[15:25] <TiMiDo> !flash
[15:25] <snek> Jack_Sparrow: kk, that's why i didn't include a path behind it ;)
[15:25] <Jack_Sparrow> MrBlueberry sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[15:25] <MrBlueberry> thanks :)
[15:25] <Wi_Fibre> Can anyone point me in the right direction, I'm trying to install Cedega using the tgz file????  I'm brand new to linux, I just wiped out my XP machine and went full Ubuntu.
[15:25] <MrBlueberry> will it be as useful as a Kubuntu installation?
[15:25] <Jack_Sparrow> snek include something like /path/filename  just so they know
[15:26] <ikonia> MrBlueberry it is akubuntu install
[15:26] <snek> Jack_Sparrow: i'll keep it in mind hehe
[15:26] <thiebaude> ikonia: i got the floppy in the drive and icon still didn't pop-up
[15:26] <BenHoltz> Hey Jack_Sparrow, do you know of any programs that i can use that would solve this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=634640 ?
[15:26] <ikonia> thiebaude is there a readable file sytem on the floppy
[15:26] <MrBlueberry> i mean: i would go for installing just KDE DESKTOP if it was : )
[15:26] <Jack_Sparrow> snek Very low tollerance for anyone writing that command unclearly or wrong..
[15:26] <hogar> do you know some cd burner to ubuntu 5.04?
[15:26] <mrthraz> Jack_Sparrow i dont understand.
[15:26] <thiebaude> ikonia:bookmarks for firefox
[15:26] <MrBlueberry> i have a Kubuntu CD at all... which is the better way?
[15:26] <DarkKnight> ikonia; i created those files on my desktop...and then copied 2 my pendrive...then inserted the pd in a virus infected system...so it got affected.....made some changes to the files....and then brought back to my system and saved it back to my desktop
[15:26] <Jack_Sparrow> BenHoltz YOu need to post descriptions and not just links
[15:26] <genii> 5.04 ??
[15:26] <ikonia> hogar: 5.04 is not supported any more
[15:27] <bazhang> hogar that is eol

[15:27] <Wi_Fibre>  Can anyone point me in the right direction, I'm trying to install Cedega using the tgz file????  I'm brand new to linux, I just wiped out my XP machine and went full Ubuntu.
[15:27] <snek> Jack_Sparrow: yeah i've noticed the op's here are quite touchy on things like that.. been trying to better myself but it's hard to keep in mind some people are really, really new to this.. i still consider myself a noob ;)
[15:27] <BenHoltz> I need someone to help me find a Graphical network tool that will help me map my network in a visio type diagram? I have tried many already, either they dont work or i cant get them to work
[15:27] <Jack_Sparrow> np

[15:27] <Jack_Sparrow> snek and we appreciate your help in here
[15:27] <lenswipe> how do i mount my filesystem on the desktop?
[15:28] <lenswipe> like this: http://sourceforge.net/dbimage.php?id=152332
[15:28] <Wi_Fibre> I am using wine
[15:28] <lenswipe> i cant get it to work, can someone help me please
[15:28] <Wi_Fibre> but from what I've heard Cedega does it better
[15:28] <snek> Jack_Sparrow: just enjoying the channel, only been here 1.5 days now and feeling right at home :)
[15:28] <hogar> is that I can not record on a cd
[15:28] <lenswipe> anyone?
[15:28] <lenswipe> i could do with some help for this
[15:28] <Jack_Sparrow> afk
[15:28] <ikonia> lenswipe what do you mean mount your desktop ?
[15:28] <thiebaude> ikonia: i know about the sudo modprobe floppy, but it is tempoary
[15:28] <hogar> I donwloaded the 8.10 version
[15:28] <ikonia> lenswipe: your asking ever 2 seconds - clam down and explain what the issue is
[15:29] <lenswipe> ikonia: i want to mount my filesystem on the desktop:
[15:29] <lenswipe> like this
[15:29] <lenswipe> http://sourceforge.net/dbimage.php?id=152332
[15:29] <snek> lenswipe: you want icons to your mounted drives on your desktop?
[15:29] <lenswipe> snek: yes!
[15:29] <ikonia> lenswipe: there are no file systems mounted on the desktop - do you mean the iconss/
[15:29] <Ysangkok> thiebaude you could put it in your startup scripts
[15:29] <lenswipe> snek: thats exactly it :D
[15:29] <ikonia> lenswipe: that happens automaticlly whena  disk is mounted
[15:29] <thiebaude> Ysangkok: what folder is that?
[15:29] <lenswipe> ikonia: i want my linux file system to apear on the desktop
[15:29] <ikonia> thiebaude: just looking in gconf now for the folders
[15:29] <lenswipe> ikonia: like in this screenshot: http://sourceforge.net/dbimage.php?id=152332
[15:30] <ikonia> thiebaude: sorry for the option
[15:30] <Lartza_> installing wordpress from repository is bad why it is on the documaentation?
[15:30] <thiebaude> ikonia: thanks
[15:30] <thiebaude> np
[15:30] <ikonia> lenswipe: I've sen the screenshot you've posted it 3 times, that should happen when a file system gets mounted automaitclly
[15:30] <ikonia> automaticlly
[15:30] <Ysangkok> thiebaude: /etc/modules is a list of modules to load at startup
[15:30] <ikonia> thiebaude just stuck a floppy in my 8.04 box and it put the icon on the desktop and auto mounted it fine
[15:30] <lenswipe> ikonia: yes, but i want my ubuntu partition to mount like that, its not doing O_o
[15:30] <Ysangkok> thiebaude: /etc/rc.local is a script which is run at startup
[15:30] <ikonia> lenswipe thats a gconf setting for showing icons
[15:31] <thiebaude> ikonia: seems like 8.10 has a problem with that
[15:31] <gumpish> Can anyone tell me how I can work with a modem? I need to dial into a remote system (like a BBS), this isn't for dial up internet access. I posted a thread on the community forum last night but it hasn't gotten any replies (and only 8 views).
[15:31] <thiebaude> 8.04 is no problem with the icon
[15:31] <lenswipe> ikonia: yes, its checked, and my ubnutu drive still doesnt show up :(
[15:31] <snek> lenswipe: it's not showing you the "Computer" icon?
