[00:00] <legend2440> is no sound on Shutdown or Reboot a common problem in Hardy?
[00:00] <Chad> Does anyone know why i cannot enable my desktop effects i have the radeon driver already enabled
[00:00] <Flannel> ndo: Then you didn't successfully add your groups in the recovery console
[00:00] <sorin-mihai> n-iCe, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades but i sugest too to install 8.04.1 from scratch.
[00:00] <n-iCe> Odd-rationale: my machine won't support it
[00:00] <Odd-rationale> n-iCe: your machine won't support 8.04? why not?
[00:00] <Khisanth> legend2440: checked the usual suspects?
[00:00] <chriswr> anyone know of any free open source rpg's?
[00:00] <Intelli> I am trying to use some Optical Character Recognition software. So far having poor results with gORC, and I don't think I've got tesseract to do anything. Can anyone assist me?
[00:00] <n-iCe> pentium 3, 256 ram 10 hd Odd-rationale :)
[00:00] <Odd-rationale> n-iCe: that is fine specs...
[00:01] <Flannel> n-iCe: That'll work fine.  Although you might want xubuntu instead.
[00:01] <n-iCe> Odd-rationale: nope, I have tries it
[00:01] <Odd-rationale> n-iCe: use the alternative cd to install , though...
[00:01] <Flannel> n-iCe: You'll need the alternate CD to install.  But once installed, it'll run
[00:01]  * Flannel stops stepping on Odd-rationale's toes.
[00:01] <legend2440> Khisanth: well tried changing Autodetect to Alsa in Sounds
[00:01] <Odd-rationale> Flannel: out of my way! :)
[00:01] <Krisando> hey
[00:01] <cvx> i didnt think anyone still ran a p3
[00:01] <soundray> Intelli: it's a bit of a weak spot in Linux
[00:02] <cvx> :(
[00:02] <Odd-rationale> n-iCe: i would even argue that hardy may use less resources than edgy... :)
[00:02] <ndo> Flannel: what i did was "usermod -G adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev lpadmin scanner admin -a ndo" is it right?
[00:02] <n-iCe> i will try
[00:02] <n-iCe> brb
[00:02] <Intelli> So I read from google searching, soundray, but surely I can get better results than what I am currently getting.
[00:02] <DeRoXX> Can anyone help me Upgrade pidgin... ?
[00:02] <ndo> Flannel:cuz what i noticed that output wasnt really right
[00:03] <unop> cvx, i still use one
[00:03] <soundray> Intelli: I've played with tesseract and got reasonable result from it when I fed it a plain text page without fancy stuff like embedded pictures ;)
[00:03] <Jack_Sparrow> DeRoXX getdeb.net  if you are trying to fix irc
[00:03] <Khisanth> legend2440: I mean making sure you the option to play a sounds is enabled :)
[00:03] <Jack_Sparrow> icq
[00:03] <bobertdos> Chad: Is Visual Effects set to Extra? Do have the compizconfig-settings-manager installed?
[00:03] <AlexJP> soundray im not using the network manager tho im using wicd
[00:03] <Intelli> soundray, I am trying to scan a book and use an ORC program to convert the pictures to text.
[00:03] <zach__> Can someone help me?
[00:03] <soundray> AlexJP: I see, don't know then
[00:04] <AlexJP> soundray thx anyway
[00:04] <Chad> bobertdos: it's set to non because when i try and enable to anything it goes all white for like 20 seconds then when i can finally see desktop it's set at non again
[00:04] <Dedi> is there a hardy howto how to install from console/chroot ?
[00:04] <legend2440> Khisanth: yes when i click Play button they play fine. bit on shutdown or reboot nothing.  Startup sound plays fine
[00:05] <Flannel> ndo: no, you need commas in between each group.  adm,dialout,cdrom,...
[00:05] <soundray> Intelli: I had to do that once -- gave up and used a trial version of Abbyy Finereader
[00:05] <Don64> in Xfce, on the title bar what does the stick button in the upper right do?
[00:05] <sorin-mihai> DeRoXX, echo deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/pidgin-developers/ubuntu hardy main | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list
[00:05] <Chad> bobertdos: no i do not have the setting manager installed.
[00:05] <arcadjos> witam
[00:05] <ndo> Flannel: ohh, if i knew :)
[00:05] <Flannel> sorin-mihai, DeRoXX: don't do that
[00:05] <darkscript> is there an ncurses interface to NetworkManager
[00:05] <Flannel> sorin-mihai, DeRoXX: sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
[00:05] <arcadjos> jakis polak mi pomoze
[00:06] <arcadjos> ?????
[00:06] <Don64> in Xfce, on the title bar what does the stick button in the upper left do?
[00:06] <bobertdos> Chad: Well, is it the Ubuntu restricted driver you're using?
[00:06] <Odd-rationale> legend2440: iirc, the reason you don't have shutdown sounds is that ubuntu now shutsdown too fast before the sounds gets to play...
[00:06] <hiptobecubic^> what's the difference between tee, echo >>, and cat >> ?
[00:06] <Chad> bobertdos, no im using the radeon driver
[00:06] <Flannel> hiptobecubic^: tee -a is the same as >>, tee is >
[00:06] <Odd-rationale> legend2440: it started since gutsy, i beleive...
[00:06] <ndo> Flannel: "usermod -G adm,dialout,cdrom,floppy,audio,dip,video,plugdev,lpadmin,scanner,admin -a ndo" like that?
[00:06] <bobertdos> Chad: the binary from ATI?
[00:06] <Flannel> hiptobecubic^: or "| tee -a" and "| tee" that is.
[00:06] <legend2440> Odd-rationale: oh ok thanks
[00:06] <Flannel> ndo: yes
[00:06] <Chad> boertdos: it's the only driver Odd-rationale and I could get to work
[00:07] <hiptobecubic^> Flannel, so nothing?
[00:07] <NiMa91> ok, i'ma try boot on the non-ACPI computer and see where exactly it stalls
[00:07] <ndo> Flannel: ok good brb
[00:07] <NiMa91> *where it stalls exactly
[00:07] <Chad> bobertdos: how do i do that?
[00:07] <Odd-rationale> bobertdos: no. the open source ati drivers...
[00:07] <Flannel> hiptobecubic^: Well, "tee" allows you to sudo it
[00:07] <Flannel> hiptobecubic^: but other than that, right.  nothing.
[00:07] <hiptobecubic^> you can't sudo cat or echo?
[00:08] <bobertdos> Odd-rationale: That's what I thought. His card is new enough where the ATI binary may be the only way to go. I don't know if we dare even go there though :p
[00:08] <soundray> hiptobecubic^: you can, but the redirection won't be sudo'd (as the calling shell handles it)
[00:08] <jfsc> hey does ubuntu include dd_rescue
[00:08] <Odd-rationale> bobertdos: are you thinking envyng?
[00:09] <soundray> !info ddrescue | jfsc
[00:09] <Chad> *watches the smart people talk*
[00:09] <bobertdos> Odd-rationale: either that or follwoing the dkms procedure, but again, I don't know if I'd have the stamina, if you catch my drift.
[00:09] <jfsc> hmmm im looking for dd rescue on the cd, or a dvd download of ubuntu
[00:09] <Odd-rationale> bobertdos: me too. i'm too scared/tired to go there...
[00:09] <hiptobecubic^> foo | sudo echo >> bar  doesn't do the same thing?
[00:10] <soundray> jfsc: it's in universe -- you'll have to get it from the repos
[00:10] <unop> hiptobecubic^, no
[00:10] <jfsc> :((
[00:10] <soundray> hiptobecubic^: no
[00:10] <jfsc> thx
[00:10] <unop> hiptobecubic^,  foo | sudo tee -a bar
[00:10] <cj_> hello ppl, am i in the correct place for a n00b question?
[00:10] <soundray> hiptobecubic^: just try to write to a file in /root/ to see the difference
[00:10] <SebNaitsabes> yes you are
[00:10] <SebNaitsabes> in the correct place
[00:10] <hiptobecubic^> ok i see
[00:11] <Chad> Bobertdos,Odd-rationale, I have no idea what you guys are talking about but if it even has a slight chance of working I'm up for it.
[00:11] <unop> hiptobecubic^, or.  sudo sh -c "foo >> bar"
[00:11] <bobertdos> Chad: Please don't take this the wrong way, but Odd-rationale and I know what needs to be done, but we're not sure we're ready to take you there :D
[00:11] <SebNaitsabes> cj_:  what's the question?
[00:11] <Chad> bobertdos cool, I think :-/
[00:11] <unop> hiptobecubic^, >> will try to create the file even before sudo is invoked and since that is done by your current user, your command could fail
[00:11] <ndo> Flannel: iguess its fixed, God bless you :)
[00:11] <cj_> thank you. I've got ubuntu 8.04 installed on my laptop. and i want to connect to my windows pc. To gain access to the shares. But i cannot seam to do it, using the connect to server application
[00:12] <hiptobecubic^> unop, ok thank you
[00:12] <unop> ndo, i guess you had to use commas there
[00:12] <unop> ?
[00:12] <Odd-rationale> hey Chad, i gtg mow the lawn... hope you get some help!
[00:12] <ndo> unop: yes
[00:12] <Chad> Odd-rationale: I hope so to
[00:12] <cj_> please bare in mind, im a total linux noob and i use a gui
[00:12] <unop> ndo, cool - does groups list all the right groups now?
[00:12] <bobertdos> Chad: It is a........delicate procedure, and the older the install of Ubuntu, the less likely it is to work properly.
[00:13] <Ale1> If I install Ubuntu 6.06, will it update to the latest version?
[00:13] <LordMetroid> no
[00:13] <SebNaitsabes> !samba |  cj_
[00:13] <ndo> unop: ndo adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev scanner lpadmin admin vboxusers
[00:13] <LordMetroid> it will update to 7.04
[00:13] <cj_> thankyou seb!
[00:13] <unop> ndo, sounds good :)
[00:13] <Ale1> Are there no later versions?
[00:13] <soundray> Ale1: yes, you can upgrade from 6.06 to 8.04
[00:13] <Ale1> Oh, alright.
[00:13] <SebNaitsabes> cj_: no problem
[00:13] <soundray> Ale1: but it's better to install 8.04 direct
[00:14] <Intelli> soundray, in lieu of using an ORC program, what would be the best way to go about creating a readable, small PDF file?
[00:14] <jsheedy> hi in trying to install ubuntu 8.04, the dvd boots, says loading kernel, then then keeps rebooting.  I have tried safe mode, and a new dvd-rom, memory check came out good too.
[00:14] <NiMa91> YES, I'm getting somewhere.
[00:14] <Chad> bobertdos:  i have the newest install of ubuntu
[00:14] <SebNaitsabes> fault DVD maybe
[00:14] <SebNaitsabes> faulyt
[00:14] <Ale1> soundray: Why is it better? ANy problems with updating?
[00:15] <NiMa91> Anyone here know how to install GRUB on a MBR, etc, etc from a LiveCD?
[00:15] <MuzikJunkie> anyone able to help with new video card? Just installed the nvidia 6200 and I cannot start X.  I have tried the dpkg-reconfigure command and even tried to run xfix in recover mode...nothing seems to make X want to start.
[00:15] <jsheedy> ok maybe
[00:15] <kyncani> jsheedy: tried 8.04.1 or 7.10 ?
[00:15] <SebNaitsabes> !Grub
[00:15] <kyncani> jsheedy: (that's why I would do)
[00:15] <NiMa91> oh, thanks
[00:15] <jsheedy> I just downloaded the alternate 8.04.1
[00:15] <jsheedy> cd
[00:15] <jsheedy> will try that
[00:15] <bobertdos> Chad: Well, I meant, the longer you have Ubuntu on your system and the more you do to it...........but we can try it if you really want to.
[00:15] <SebNaitsabes> no problem
[00:16] <kyncani> jsheedy: good luck ;)
[00:16] <legend2440> Chad: open system>administration>hardware drivers is there a box there for ATI and if so is it checked?
[00:16] <Chad> Bobertdos: i have had ubuntu installed about 2 days now
[00:16] <Intelli> Going on 2 years for me.
[00:16] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie  NOt the easiest way.. but..  http://pastebin.com/m49654db5
[00:16] <Chad> bobertdos: and I'm also dual booting so if it does mess up I can always boot into windows
[00:16] <SebNaitsabes> Bobertdos:  also to get into Ubuntu in the first place he needs to have the Live CD in and to tell that to boot from the hard disk
[00:17] <jsheedy> kyncani:thanks
[00:17] <Chad> legend2440: no because im not using that driver
[00:17] <Chad> holy
[00:18] <ndo> wow
[00:18]  * sorin-mihai wonderful netsplit \:D/
[00:18] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow:  Think this will work?  Is this risky?
[00:18] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie No, it is just the binary driver for nvidia
[00:18] <legend2440> Chad: so there is no box there at all? or its just not enabled?
[00:18] <bobertdos> What just happened with that mass exodous??
[00:18] <hdevalence> !netsplit
[00:19] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow:  Ok so I'll run through those 15 steps
[00:19] <Chad> legend2440: it's not enabled but its fine like that according to Odd
[00:19] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[00:19] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow:  actually, how can i DL the nvidia driver with no way to sign on?  Another cpu?
[00:20] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie I am working on writing a tutorial that will let you wget the driver
[00:21] <Sad`Panda> bb
[00:21] <MuzikJunkie> ahh that's what I need...I do have another cpu here, will that work u think?
[00:21] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie which card again..
[00:21] <Jack_Sparrow> 6200?
[00:21] <MuzikJunkie> XFX GeForce 6200 AGP 512MB
[00:22] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie if you have another pc or even livecd will let you get it and save to usb
[00:23] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow:  I have a live cd, and another cpu.  or I can install the old vid card and go that route...in the essence of not wasting yout time, which will be quickest?
[00:24] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow:  Even the live CD does not boot with this card.
[00:24] <hdevalence> so my sound has just died. when I try to run speaker-test I get "ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:874:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave \n Playback open error: -16,Device or resource busy". Is there a way to reset it?
[00:25] <chicox> lsof|grep snd
[00:25] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie try livecd with noapic acpi=off options.. F6 at frist menu in order to enter those modifiers
[00:25] <friedtofu> anyone know what pulseaudio is good for?
[00:25] <groken> i need to confirm my understanding of the /etc/resolv.conf file. if my server is accessible at some.domain.address.com, do i want "domain some.domain.address.com" or "domain address.com"? i presume the first?
[00:26] <NiMa91> Hrh
[00:26] <NiMa91> I just reinstalled grub, and it still fails to boot.
[00:27] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow:  Starting Linux Kernel
[00:27] <NiMa91> I wonder if grub has something against my system... is there any easy way to install, like, lilo or something, with no access to the target system's OS?
[00:27] <kitche> groken: all resolv.conf is used for it name resolition mainly DNS
[00:27] <igorw> hey guys, when I make a bridge br0 (<IP_ADDRESS>), and add 2 interfaces to the bridge tap0 and eth0 (208.x.x.x), I can not use eth0 to connect to internet anymore.. how could I go around that?
[00:27] <legend2440> Chad: well its up to you but i'm 99.9% sure that if you enable the ATI proprietary drivers you will be able to use compiz with no problem. you can alway uncheck the box and go back to the open source driver. i noticed in your xorg.conf it says Driver "radeon". i'm pretty sure that should say Driver "ati" but the proprietary   fglrx drivers are very good in my experience. i have Radeon 9600 card
[00:27] <unop> groken, that totally depends on how you want to resolve names that are not fully qualified.   if you are looking up a host named foo, do you want it to be resolved to foo.some.domain.address.com or foo.address.com
[00:28] <Chad> legend2440: except when i enable them i can't boot ubuntu black screen at login
[00:28] <groken> unop: i would want it to be foo.some.domain.address.com
[00:28] <Scunizi> I need some advice on VM's.. VMware won't install and function on one of my machines.  I notice that virtualbox is in the repo's. Do I install virtualbox-ose & virt-manager to get it going?  Also is the vm accessible from another machine on the same lan?
[00:28] <unop> groken, right, then "domain some.domain.address.com"
[00:28] <hdevalence> chicox: OK, there are 3 programs using it. If I try closing them, could that work?
[00:29] <groken> unop: perfect. thanks! and thanks kitche !
[00:29] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow:  After the loading bar completed, it looked like it was going to try and start X but then I got green and red flashing lines
[00:29] <wilbert> #ubuntu-pr
[00:30] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow:  The CD is done reading and the lines are still wigging out
[00:30] <dougydecimate> So, my terminal is messing up. When I open one it's blank, allows me to type, but no commands work. I can open a root terminal fine and it works properly.  how can I fix it?
[00:30] <unop> igorw, i suspect that it is because you have used a private IP address there <IP_ADDRESS>  - private IP addresses cannot be used over the internet
[00:30] <hdevalence> chicox: nvm, it was okular causing the problem. Thanks for the help!
[00:30] <unop> igorw, can you ping hosts on your LAN ok?
[00:30] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie can you get to cli in your regular install
[00:30] <cypha> how do you enable wireless in ubuntu?
[00:31] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie and are you running 32 bit
[00:31] <cypha> ubuntu doesn't see my broadcom wireless card
[00:31] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow:  Only in recovery mode (root Shell)
[00:31] <cypha> i have network-manager installed
[00:31] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow:  Yes 32 bit
[00:31] <kitche> groken: ah my mistake it's pretty much the same thing as search :)
[00:31] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie get to a shell
[00:31] <legend2440> Chad:  if you follow Method 1 here it will work    http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Hardy_Installation_Guide
[00:31] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie Lets see if we can do this
[00:32] <igorw> unop: i have a crazy firewall around me, and ping would not work. but when I try ping -I eth5 google.ca I get Destination Host Unreachable,
[00:32] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow: done
[00:32] <Chad> legend2440: tried that
[00:33] <igorw> unop: when i take down the br0 and remove tap0 and eth0 from the bridge, i can ping -I eth0 google.. err previous eth5=eth0
[00:33] <legend2440> Chad: ok
[00:33] <Chad> legend2440: bobertdos said he would help me out. he knows what the problem is, Thanks alot for your help though
[00:33] <unop> igorw, well, is eth5 ever part of br0?
[00:33] <legend2440> Chad: ok good luck
[00:33] <unop> igorw, sorry sorry, i got ya
[00:34] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow: ready at the shell
[00:34] <igorw> unop, ya, when i put eth0 as part of the bridge I can not ping google, if i remove it then it works again
[00:35] <Andorea> Can someone tell me what is the command for "show desktop" [i wanna add it to my AWN launcher]
[00:35] <unop> igorw, if you attach an interface to a bridge, it becomes quite unusable by itself  -- and since your bridge uses a private IP address, it is not surprising you cannot ping a host on the internet.
[00:35] <Joelito> Hi all, got this question..I installed cairo-clock and I like it, is there any cairo or similar that shows a calendar with the day of today?
[00:35] <MuzikJunkie> Andorea: Do you have the latest AWN where you can add the Show Desktop Applet?
[00:35] <bastid_raZor> Andorea; doesn't AWN have an applet for that?
[00:35] <unop> igorw, what is eth0's address normally? when not part of the bridge?
 i have the latest versioni believe, didn't know there is applet
[00:36] <igorw> it is <IP_ADDRESS>
 i will try to find it, thank you~
[00:36] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie one sec
[00:36] <unop> igorw, and tap0 ?
[00:36] <bastid_raZor> Andorea; i've actually switched to cairo-dock .. i'm enoying it much more
[00:36] <bastid_raZor> s/enoying/enjoying
 i will try that one too then :) thanks
[00:36] <igorw> haven't given tap0 Ip, but i plan to give it either <IP_ADDRESS> or <IP_ADDRESS> (not sure if .1 will work, since br0 got that ip)
[00:37] <bastid_raZor> Andorea; you'll have to add a repo.. google for it. there is a howto.. i could give you a link if you like?
[00:37] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie  lets try this..  wget http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/173.14.05/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.05-pkg1.run
[00:37] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow: Ohh that is gonna take a while to type...here goes...
[00:37] <KenBW22> sometimes when i connect to this channel it says that KenBW2 is already taken. I set it as kenBW22 but when i log in there's no KenBW2. Why?
[00:37] <Jack_Sparrow> k
 yes please :)
[00:38] <unop> igorw, remove any ip addresses from eth0 and tap0, create the bridge and set the ip address of br0 to <IP_ADDRESS>  (or if this address is not a static one, try updating it via dhcp)
[00:38] <bastid_raZor> Andorea; >> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CairoDock
[00:38] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie  I will try to help but may need to leave soon
 thanks :***
[00:38] <igorw> unop: i get ya, and then I can have tap0 with local ip, that can use eth0 as gateway to the net
[00:39] <unop> igorw, errm, you'll have to give br0 a secondary IP address - a private one
[00:40] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow: Does it matter if I am logged on as Root@hostname when i run this?
[00:40] <unop> igorw, tap0 and eth0 go out of use when part of a bridge, administering them becomes a no-op when they are a part of a bridge
[00:40] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie nope you will sudo if needed anyhow
[00:40] <dethnull> whats a good desktop recording app?  dosnt matter if it has a gui or not
[00:40] <histo> MuzikJunkie: why ar eyou logged in as root
[00:41] <dumples> Is there an easy setting to find to switch over to an s video cable?
[00:41] <unop> !screencast | dethnull
[00:41] <bastid_raZor> dethnull; gtk-recordmydesktop
[00:41] <zerogate> i didn't have my menu.lst ubgradet during my gutsy to hardy upgrade but i should have, how can i
[00:41] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow: 404 Not Found
[00:41] <zerogate> what can i do now
[00:41] <dethnull> ty
[00:41] <histo> dumples: what kind of video card are you using?
[00:41] <GunniH> hai
[00:41] <GunniH> I haz a problem

[00:41] <histo> dumples: nvidia-settings
[00:41] <igorw> unop: awesome, I was thinking of adding 2nd ip to eth0, but that did not work all too well
[00:42] <dumples> where would i get to that?
[00:42] <igorw> unop: thanks for the advice
[00:42] <histo> dumples: in a terminal

[00:42] <unop> igorw, i am not sure if a bridge is the answer to your requirements .. but then again i don't fully understand your network setup.
[00:43] <zerogate> i didn't have my menu.lst ubgradet during my gutsy to hardy upgrade but i should have, what can i do now?
[00:43] <marcelo> hello?
[00:43] <unop> zerogate, does this command still want to upgrade packages?   sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[00:43] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie You got build-essential already right
[00:43] <histo> marcelo: yes
[00:44] <GunniH> ok hey
[00:44] <igorw> unop: basically I am tryin to set up OpenVpn where remote clients can get their IPs from a our local DHCP server, I read that it requires ethernet bridgin
[00:44] <marcelo> Oh Thanks.
[00:44] <GunniH> anyone here who knows a bit about everything ?
[00:44] <GunniH> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuServerFlashDriveInstaller
[00:44] <GunniH> I'm trying to configure my flash drive ready
[00:44] <zerogate> unop, yes
[00:44] <marcelo> I have never used this chat
[00:44] <GunniH> Determine which device your flash drive is on (/dev/sdb, etc)
[00:44] <GunniH> ok how can I determine where it is ?
[00:44] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow: lemme get that now
[00:45] <unop> zerogate, i guess you will have to complete the upgrade then, it seems the upgrade failed.
[00:45] <zerogate> oh, okay
[00:45] <histo> GunniH: plug it in and lsusb
[00:45] <marcelo> this is just a test
[00:45] <GunniH> histo
[00:45] <GunniH> its

[00:45] <FloodBot1> GunniH: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:45] <unop> igorw, hmm, and is the DHCP sever on another machine on the local subnet?
[00:45] <GunniH> and the ID
[00:45] <GunniH> :)
[00:45] <histo> GunniH: try lspci
[00:45] <zerogate> unop, but during the upgrade i was asked if i want the menu.lst upgraded and i said "no"
[00:45] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow: that is instaling now...for some reason (and I have two sets of eyes) I do not know where the typo is
[00:46] <dumples> histo: ok, i installed it
[00:46] <histo> GunniH: hrm.. you need the dev
[00:46] <zerogate> unop, but now i want to say yes but i think it is too late
[00:46] <histo> dumples: okay open a console and run it.
[00:46] <dumples> ok, its up\
[00:46] <histo> dumples: look for tv out settings.
[00:47] <unop> zerogate, hmm, yea.  maybe this does it.  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow grub; sudo update-grub
[00:47] <RonBurgundy> Can someone help me out through PM. Im trying to get linux on the computer.
[00:47] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow: is that a 1 opn the end of the string or an L
[00:47] <zerogate> unop, thx i will try
[00:47] <unop> zerogate, do that once aptitude has finished upgrading tho
[00:47] <igorw> unop: and dhcp server will give local <IP_ADDRESS>/24 ips to OpenVPN client,  usually dhcp serves out <IP_ADDRESS> - <IP_ADDRESS> to "onsite" connected clients.
[00:47] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow: ahh it was a 1
[00:48] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow: package is downloading and build-essential is in place

[00:51] <unop> Guest68309, $? is just the return status of a script/command.  there isn't much you can do with it
[00:51] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie I appreciate your trust in this..
[00:51] <Joki> can you explain how do i disable compiz

[00:57] <histo> MuzikJunkie: you have a problem with your framebuffer driver then.
[00:57] <Guest68309> unop, it is big jajaj
[00:58] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie Something is really wrong there
[00:58] <jimmmym> histo: should i bother looking now, or wait till it fails
[00:58] <unop> !paste | Guest68309
[00:58] <Guest68309> unop, I know jaja
[00:58] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow: If I run with an old xorg, I may be able to get it to a TTY
[00:58] <histo> jimmmym: you can look now if it just failed. There should be some old logs in there to
[00:58] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie I need to run, service call to fix windows and I am already late...
[00:58] <histo> jimmmym: just check around /var/log so you are familiar
[00:58] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow: thanks for the help...I will sit here contemplating
[00:58] <Jack_Sparrow> MuzikJunkie keep at it..  you have a good idea what we are trying to do..
[00:59] <Jack_Sparrow> you have the driver ..
[00:59] <MuzikJunkie> Jack_Sparrow: yep....good luck with the service call!
[00:59] <Jack_Sparrow> ty

[00:59] <aboughifar> salut
[00:59] <aboughifar> les mek
[00:59] <histo> MuzikJunkie: aren't you trying to install an nvidia card?
[00:59] <histo> MuzikJunkie: what version of ubuntu and what nvidia card?
[01:00] <MuzikJunkie> histo: Hardy, geforce 6200 512MB AGP
[01:00] <histo> MuzikJunkie: your just trying to install video drivers? do you have any GUI right now?
[01:00] <Guest68309> unop, check 538 line http://paste.ubuntu.com/29440/
[01:00] <MuzikJunkie> histo: no gui, X will not start even after dpkg reconfigure
[01:01] <Guest68309> unop, it is really big, jaja I hope you could read it
[01:01] <nabcore> Is it possible to add the GUIness of Desktop to an existing server install using the magic of apt-get ?
[01:01] <kitche> nabcore: yes
[01:01] <histo> MuzikJunkie: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[01:01] <histo> MuzikJunkie: remove the nvidia binary driver if you were trying to install that.
[01:01] <histo> MuzikJunkie: I don't know how far you got.
[01:02] <histo> !nvidia > MuzikJunkie
[01:02] <nabcore> kitche; is it something like apt-get install ubuntu-desktop?
[01:02] <kitche> nabcore: if you want gnome yes
[01:02] <histo> nabcore: yes
[01:02] <unop> Guest68309,  $? is only current right after you execute a command. you are testing $? after palabra=`cat /tmp/xdialog.tmp` which is too late
[01:02] <nabcore> ok.. I will pass this onto my uncle; thanks
[01:02] <histo> nabcore: ubuntu-desktop would add a normal gnome ubuntu set up. kubuntu-desktop would add kde ubuntu setup or kubuntu
[01:02] <nabcore> ok; thanks histo
[01:02] <histo> nabcore: and I would use aptitude instead of apt-get
[01:02] <nabcore> ok... noted

[01:03] <Guest68309> unop, mmmm jaja well let me try, thanks for the advice

[01:05] <kitche> Myrtti: was it :) I m getting some text lag a bit from compiling gnome
[01:05] <Myrtti> hihi
[01:05] <histo> MuzikJunkie: you can hit <tab> to auto complete the name of the file.
[01:05] <MuzikJunkie> histo: I'll need to get back into recover mode and then i'll run the remove
[01:06] <Guest68309> unop, it still come out zero :(
[01:06] <histo> MuzikJunkie: I don't think you installed it but when its done removing then sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[01:06] <histo> MuzikJunkie: you should be good to go then.
[01:07] <MuzikJunkie> histo: Didnt know about the tab...neat..  Unrecognized option --remove
[01:07] <kerin> I'm trying to get my wireless card working, according to google the card's supported - an intel 2200B/G.  but if i try using ifup or the Network Tools panel to configure the connection, it says "Ignoring unknown interface eth1=eth1"
[01:07] <histo> MuzikJunkie: I'm not sure what the nvidia remove switch was hold on one second.
[01:07] <Abed> unop, when i try mp3lame or lamemp3 it gives unknown codec but mp3 tells me unsupported codec for output stream #0.0
[01:08] <histo> MuzikJunkie: its --uninstall
[01:09] <MuzikJunkie> histo: It brought me to the screen about you should not be in runlevel 1...do you want to quit.  This is where I got last time and said Yes to quit
[01:09] <MuzikJunkie> histo: I dont think it installed
[01:09] <histo> MuzikJunkie: okay then do sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx
[01:10] <ani1> Hello all, wondering if anyone can shead light on my issue. Its a little long so i pastebin'ed it http://paste.ubuntu.com/29442/
[01:10] <fxcmh> I have an Ubuntu 8.04 with the 'home' directory on its own partition on the hard drive.  How do I set a storage quota for that partition for all users?
[01:10] <MuzikJunkie> histo: done.  shutdown -r now?
[01:11] <histo> MuzikJunkie: yeah
[01:12] <bobo> anil: try alsaconf?
[01:12] <tovmeod> hello, I have a sierra aircard 880e, can I use it with ubuntu?
[01:12] <iratsu> if i go guided LVM partitioning in a hardy installer, where does it put /boot?
[01:12] <ani1> bobo: alsaconf? no package named that...
[01:13] <tyler_d1> I am attempting to run 'dpkg --configure -a' my machine hangs indefinately from term and from gdm on 'Generating locales...' 'en_AU.UTF-8...
[01:13] <MuzikJunkie> histo: after the splash, i go to a black screen with an on screen display floating all around stating that Not Optimum Mode Recommended Mode 1280 X 1024  60hz
[01:13] <tyler_d1> any feedback or help to resolve this would be swollen
[01:13] <rockyrock> guys, Ubuntu doesn't recognize my Bluetooth!
[01:13] <rockyrock> I have Ubuntu 8.04
[01:13] <tovmeod> I got the 8.04 cd, does it comes with drivers to it or do I need to download something?
[01:13] <histo> MuzikJunkie: did it get in to a GUI?
[01:14] <MuzikJunkie> histo: no
[01:14] <histo> tovmeod: comes with drivers for a lot of hardware
[01:14] <MuzikJunkie> histo: if I flip the monitor to the digital cable, i see an all grey screen
[01:14] <techsupport> can anyone get me a link to instructions on how to set-up ventrilo server ?
[01:14] <histo> MuzikJunkie: hrm.... wth.  Well alright then i would sudo aptitude purge nvidia-glx
[01:14] <tovmeod> how can I check if it has mine?
[01:14] <Guest68309> unop, thanks anyways, I think because the variable $? I use it so many times after that line, when it come back takes the zero value, but I don't know how to reset it, or am I wrong ?
[01:14] <histo> MuzikJunkie: get to run level 1 and use the nvidia installer
[01:15] <unop> Guest68309, hold on a sec
[01:15] <MuzikJunkie> histo: as i was doing earlier you mean?
[01:15] <histo> Make sure you have the build-essentials package.
[01:15] <histo> MuzikJunkie: yeah nvidia-glx should have worked for you fine.
[01:15] <histo> MuzikJunkie: but you can always try the nvidia installer as well.
[01:16] <Guest68309> unop, don't try to execute my script because it requires a lot of files as well
[01:16] <tovmeod> are drivers the same for 64 bit or running 32 bit would be better?
[01:16] <inocentpc> I encountered a problem with not recognizing the USB flash drives. I installed linux Mint and other flavors of linux that came from ubuntu, and no USB. under XP, the laptop worked well, so it's not a hardware problem, I think. if you have suggestion let's talk in private, please. tnx.
[01:16] <ani1> any other thoughts on my sound issue http://paste.ubuntu.com/29442/ ?
[01:17] <votan> I have a Problem, somehow my Sound-Control stopped working recently after an update. I still hear the sound jsut fine, but I can't controll the volume and (I use a laptop) the internal speakers don't get muted after I plug in external Speakers. Does anyone have an idea what's broken ?
[01:17] <kevinO> anyone know how to configure the xserver-xorg-input-elographics driver?
[01:17] <bobo> anil: my mistake.  no alsaconf on ubuntu
[01:18] <ani1> bobo: alsamixer is all unmuted too
[01:18] <bobo> anil: maybe this helps? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449
[01:18] <smee> bobo: isnt hardy using pulse audio now?
[01:18] <ani1> ive done all the troubleshooting from the link that ubottu gives
[01:18] <smee> as a connector type thingy
[01:18] <Abed> i can't enable my built in bluetooth toshiba A200-1M5
[01:18] <itai-michaelson> My Nvidia X server settings sees my monitor as CRT while its actually LCD , there are no other options in the drop-down menu ,how do i change that?
[01:19] <ani1> bobo: ive been through this guide and it has not fixed my problem :*(
[01:19] <smee> itai-michaelson: same with me but it doesnt affect my peformance
[01:19] <bobo> anil: sound on linux is still more art than science
[01:19] <ani1> heh
[01:19] <histo> tovmeod: I would run 32bit more support for stuff there.
[01:20] <itai-michaelson> smee, it does affect mine! the fonts are all smeared , they look much better when i disable nvidia
[01:20] <histo> tovmeod: but its up to you. Depends on yoru experience etc...
[01:20] <histo> !better > tovmeod
[01:20] <yuji> hey guys, with two x screens, is there a way to move windows between screens? I want a firefox instance on both screens..
[01:20] <histo> itai-michaelson: and this is a problem why?
[01:20] <xTheGoat121x> I've noticed that with my sound, there is a delay... the mouse will freeze for just a moment before the sound plays, then unfreeze and the sound plays.
[01:21] <histo> yuji: ctrl+shft+alt+right arrow
[01:21] <histo> yuji: or you jsut drag the window to the other desktop.
[01:21] <yuji> histo: two x screens, not workspace
[01:21] <itai-michaelson> histo, because it makes the fonts look bad
[01:21] <bobo> anil: i assume you went through the routine of removing all the alsa stuff?  base and utils? and tried reinstalling?
[01:21] <ani1> yeah
[01:21] <smee> itai-michaelson: i have two screens setup in twinview mode, in the nvidia settings panel it calls my lcd(main) crt-0, and my other screen crt-1..
[01:21] <histo> yuji: you have two instances of X running?
[01:21] <histo> itai-michaelson: check the font settings.
[01:22] <ani1> bobo:  This happens every reboot so im fairly familiar with the purge reinstall
[01:22] <techsupport> can anyone help me install and setup ventrilo server ?
[01:22] <histo> !resolution > itai-michaelson

[01:22] <itai-michaelson> histo, but when i cancel the nvidia driver the fonts instantly become nicer!
[01:22] <yuji> histo: yeah
[01:22] <histo> itai-michaelson: perhaps its something nvidia driver is adding to the xorg.conf
[01:23] <histo> yuji: I believe when you start the instance of firefox you have to tell it which display to be on :0 or :1 etc...
[01:23] <ani1> techsupport:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=41737  but i prefer teamspeak its a super easy setup https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TeamSpeak
[01:23] <itai-michaelson> histo, how can i check that?
[01:23] <histo> itai-michaelson: gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:24] <Aletheuo> is there a way to disable ext fsck checks on bootup?
[01:24] <unop> Guest68309, /usr/bin/Xdialog  --yesno "foo" 10 30; if [[ $? == 0 ]]; then echo yes $?; else echo no $?; fi

[01:24] <kerin_> Tilda doesn't always grab window focus - in fact it never seems to, I am using Metacity - any ideas?
[01:24] <WatchDragon> hmm, i have to know, is ubuntu 8 comparable to visa, as far as stuff not working right?
[01:24] <techsupport> ani1, the tutorial talks about wine, there is ventrilo for linux
[01:24] <histo> Aletheuo: you can change the options for when the drive is checked
[01:25] <smee> yujiL if you want to sepcify which screen to start up on gnome has a paramter for it : "--screen = 0" i thinks
[01:25] <Majost> is there an easy way to get all the package maintainers gpg pubkeys?
[01:25] <histo> kerin_: ask the tilda people. Or use devilspie and add a terminal to your desktop
[01:25] <MuzikJunkie> histo: I am going back to the basics...basic xorg and old geforce 2 card...just so that I can see the logs for a bit
[01:25] <yuji> hist: is it possible to ever move a window from one X to another? I'm torn because having 2 Xs is very useful to have 2 different sets of workspaces.
[01:25] <histo> MuzikJunkie: probably a good idea. Might want to double check the card you have. with lspci
[01:25] <PF> 6c/quit
[01:25] <smee> WatchDragon: everything works for me, even have wow running same as it does in windows
[01:25] <yuji> histo: i mean :)
[01:25] <MuzikJunkie> histo: also need some piece of mind that this system is working :)
[01:26] <kerin_> histo: not terrifically helpful on any level, but thanks for playing.
[01:26] <histo> yuji: I don't know how but I don't run two different X.
[01:26] <ani1> techsupport: check there website they have a how-to http://www.ventrilo.com/setup.php#Server_Installing
[01:26] <WatchDragon> cedega or wine?
[01:26] <ColOfNature> can someone tell me how to remove grub from my windows hd?
[01:26] <histo> kerin: well they would be the ones that would know the most about it.
[01:26] <MuzikJunkie> histo: Ahhh, my sanity is in tact...everything is still as it was before the new card...but I want this new card working!
[01:26] <xTheGoat121x> Anyone familiar with PulseAudio?
[01:26] <Aletheuo> histo: hmm, so set 1 to 0 to disable the check?
[01:26] <smee> histo: if its an nvidia card, then there is  an option to use twinview or spereate x screen
[01:26] <histo> MuzikJunkie: ahh you are swapping cards in teh same machine?
[01:27] <xTheGoat121x> BRB
[01:27] <AMDpenguin> shit
[01:27] <MuzikJunkie> histo: yes, i pulled out an old geforce for a new Geforce
[01:27] <histo> Aletheuo: you would have to follow the directions from ubottu I can't rmeember right now.
[01:27] <smee> WatchDragon: wine as described in the help.ubuntu site
[01:27] <histo> MuzikJunkie: The problem is probably the drivers for the old card still being there.
[01:27] <MuzikJunkie> histo: the old card is ok, hust a lil slow
[01:27] <smee> WatchDragon: helps that i have a core duo and a 8800gt
[01:27] <AMDpenguin> y did ubuntu fucking nuke my windows partition?
[01:27] <MuzikJunkie> histo: could be...is there a way to purge?
[01:28] <MISI> Hi all. i have a problem, i just installed Ubuntu 8.04, all was ok, and rebooted PC, now i get "run COMMAND with root directory set to NEWROOT" and can't run it, can someone help?
[01:28] <histo> MuzikJunkie: depends what is installed and how you installed them.
[01:28] <ani1> !language > AMDpenguin
[01:28] <WatchDragon> hmm, does wine not liek ATI cards?
[01:28] <histo> MuzikJunkie: dpkg -l | grep nvidia
[01:28] <smee> no
[01:28] <smee> nothing likes ati
[01:28] <smee> ati < good
[01:28] <WatchDragon> hmm
[01:29] <votan> incase my problem got scrolled away earlier :) --> somehow my Sound-Control stopped working recently after an update. I still hear the sound just fine, but I can't control the volume and (I use a laptop) the internal speakers don't get muted after I plug in external Speakers. Does anyone have an idea what's broken ?
[01:29] <smee> on my old computer using a ati 9600,  caused me heaps of problems and was restricted to a bare few potions in terms of 3d
[01:29] <MuzikJunkie> histo: glx-legacy and glx nvidia kernel common
[01:29] <unop> MISI, can you log on ok? does this message stop you from logging on? if so, where are you seeing it?
[01:29] <histo> MuzikJunkie: yeah the glx-legacy drivers hanging around would definately be an issue.
[01:29] <itai-michaelson> histo can u have a look ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/29447/
[01:29] <histo> MuzikJunkie: remove those and the kernel module then put the new card in and install nvidia-glx
[01:30] <histo> MuzikJunkie: sudo aptitude purge nvidia-glx-legacy    etc....
[01:30] <robdig> votan: try right clicking on speaker icon by clock, then select preferences. see if PCM is selected. if not, try selecting it
[01:30] <MuzikJunkie> histo: same way, aptitude purge?
[01:30] <histo> MuzikJunkie: yeppers
[01:30] <Xavura> So I was just sat here, happily coding away, then all of a sudden all my screen started flashing and stuff. All my windows kind of moved and, well I don't know, it was weird
[01:30] <histo> itai-michaelson: is that the proper monitor?
[01:31] <MISI> unop, i boot up pc, there is a loading screen and after 3 sec i get this
[01:31] <moshe> just completed an update,have compiz enabled but now I cannot resize windows.Can't remember how to fix this one.any ideas?
[01:31] <Xavura> and then all of my programs were moved onto my first virtual desktop thing
[01:31] <Xavura> But before they were all spread out across the virtual desktops
[01:31] <itai-michaelson> histo, my monitor says " SyncMaster 943nw" ,however i'm afraid it could a China-only model
[01:31] <smee> moshe: ccsm -> window utils
[01:31] <Xavura> Looking at it, I think compiz fusion decided to shut down as my transparency is gone but, it just happened out of nowhere
[01:31] <histo> MuzikJunkie: the new card should at least work in vesa mode then you can install the restricted driver
[01:31] <unop> MISI, so this is before you enter your username and password?
[01:32] <histo> itai-michaelson: and its just a problem with the clarity of fonts?
[01:32] <MISI> unop, yes
[01:32] <smee> moshe: ccsm -> window managment -> Resize Window
[01:32] <unop> MISI, and that is the exact error message you get?
[01:32] <itai-michaelson> histo, yes
[01:33] <histo> itai-michaelson: I would check the font settings for dpi if not perhaps someone else would know here.
[01:33] <smee> moshe: bindings -> initiate window resize for mouse
[01:33] <MuzikJunkie> histo: check http://paste.ubuntu.com/29449  is this ok to remove?
[01:33] <MuzikJunkie> histo: looks serious
[01:33] <votan> robdig: PCM is selected
[01:33] <MISI> unop. yes i see only this
[01:33] <smee> itai-michaelson: i usuall change teh dpi in settings -> appearance -. fonts to 72 instead of 96
[01:33] <histo> MuzikJunkie: what are you trying to remove that wanted to remove that?
[01:34] <MuzikJunkie> histo: nvidia kernel common
[01:34] <unop> MISI, i would reinstall grub if i were you.
[01:34] <unop> !grub | MISI
[01:34] <histo> MuzikJunkie: okay leave the kernel common then.
[01:34] <MuzikJunkie> histo: ok
[01:34] <moshe> smee,which option?
[01:34] <histo> MuzikJunkie: yeah its part of normal ubuntu install forgot about that.
[01:34] <moshe> smee,which option?
[01:34] <histo> MuzikJunkie: just remove the nivida-glx-legacy stuff.
[01:35] <madfrancis> I'm having an issue with my xorg.conf.backup. Specifically, when I try to save a new config it says it cannot remove the old backup. When I went to the actual DIR to do it manually it says I can't because I don't have permission. How do I remedy this?
[01:35] <MISI> unop, ok, i will try this, thx
[01:35] <pan034234> how do i install firefox32 on amd64?
[01:35] <smee> moshe: you have compiz config settings manager open?
[01:35] <moshe> yes I do
[01:35] <MuzikJunkie> histo: legacy is removed...install new card and reboot?
[01:35] <pan034234> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202537
[01:35] <itai-michaelson> histo, smee playing with the dpi helps - thanks
[01:35] <smee> moshe: you want the resize window section
[01:35] <pan034234> done scripts and firefox deb file
[01:35] <histo> MuzikJunkie: yeah shut the computer off install new card and boot up.
[01:36] <moshe> resize is checked
[01:36] <histo> MuzikJunkie: you'll probably get and X error and need ot install nvidia-glx
[01:36] <smee> moshe: then when your in that part, open the bindings tab
[01:36] <robdig> votan: hmm, then you might be running into this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/109442
[01:36] <MuzikJunkie> histo: I would be thrilled to see that error
[01:36] <unop> madfrancis, you need to use sudo or gksudo as needed
[01:36] <overlordpuppy> I seem to have sample rate issues recording.
[01:36] <madfrancis> I tried using "sudo rm xorg.conf.backup but had no luck.
[01:36] <unop> madfrancis, open up your editor in this way.  gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:36] <madfrancis> It said that no file or directory existed
[01:36] <histo> MuzikJunkie: well lets see what happens.
[01:36] <smee> moshe: you will see siz binding options
[01:37] <hoonteke> question: where is the cvs/svn repository for the nm-applet code?
[01:37] <smee> moshe: six*
[01:37] <smee> moshe: disable the top four
[01:37] <histo> hoonteke: did you try finding their homepage?
[01:37] <unop> madfrancis, well, you can't delete a file that doesn't exist, can you? :)
[01:37] <unop> madfrancis, that's quite pointless
[01:37] <madfrancis> perhaps not. But I've seen the file with my own eyeballs
[01:37] <hoonteke> histo: yes, but I got lazy after 2 minutes hoping it would be a quick url paste for someone.
[01:37] <unop> madfrancis, does the file exist?  ls -ld /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:37] <moshe> having problems seeing the top of the window.it is above the top of screen.cannot see the bindings tab
[01:37]  * hoonteke goes back to google grind
[01:37] <histo> hoonteke: isn't that part of gnome.
[01:38] <hoonteke> histo: I dunno?
[01:38] <histo> hoonteke: I thought that was now part of gnome now.
[01:38] <hoonteke> histo, k, loooking there now
[01:38] <smee> moshe: for me i have set the mouse binding to alt + button1 to initiate a window resize
[01:38] <histo> hoonteke: try #gnome
[01:38] <hoonteke> histo, great thanks
[01:38] <drwelby> Hi, I have 4 scripts in cron.hourly. If I run-parts /etc/cron.hourly, all 4 run. However, when cron runs that folder, only 3 run. the scripts all have similar permissions. Where to troubleshoot next?
[01:38] <smee> moshe: if you cant see the top of the window, then try pressing alt + drag to move the window
[01:39] <MuzikJunkie> histo: X started and I have a normal looking login screen
[01:39] <madfrancis> unop: yes
[01:39] <smee> this drag behaviour can be changed in System -> Preferences -> Window
[01:39] <unop> madfrancis, what does that return?
[01:39] <moshe> that works smee,but I used to be able to drag the window with left mouse btn and no alt
[01:39] <histo> MuzikJunkie: okay so its using the vesa driver now you just have to install the nvidia-glx driver it should actually prompt you
[01:39] <histo> MuzikJunkie: and tell you that a restricted driver is availible.
[01:39] <jokkaa> http://img99.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshffot1ru0.jpg ended up pretty good=)
[01:39] <MuzikJunkie> histo: so far, no prompt but I do have a desktop
[01:40] <smee> moshe: oops i tell l lie, i have it set to super+middle click to start resize
[01:40] <histo> MuzikJunkie: yeah you are using the non open gl driver basically now you just have to install nvidia-glx and you will be good to go.
[01:40] <madfrancis> unop: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2743 2008-07-21 18:49 /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:40] <orgthingy> hi
[01:40] <moshe> ok.just trying to get back to the old method using just left mouse btn and dragging
[01:40] <orgthingy> I *need* cmd for linux
[01:41] <orgthingy> yes, i know about terminal
[01:41] <orgthingy> i LOVE terminal
[01:41] <orgthingy> but, there are stuff i want to test in cmd
[01:41] <unop> madfrancis, ok,  what does this do?  sudo mv -v /etc/X11/xorg.conf{,.bkp}
[01:41] <orgthingy> how?
[01:41] <overlordpuppy> My sound is fine, but my recording is picking up a lot of static and is making my voice really deep. http://www.underscorelive.com/Voice.wav <-- Sample saying "Test Test Test"
[01:41] <histo> MuzikJunkie: try going to System > Administraiton > Hardware Drivers you should be able to do it from there.
[01:41] <moshe> it worked b4 the update.can't remember how I fixed it last time
[01:41] <smee> moshe: maybe have a look through those sections in the ccsm to see which ones would affect window resizing.
[01:41] <smee> moshe: make sure there are no rules preventing winow resizing
[01:41] <kitche> orgthingy: depends what you mean by test but myself I would buy a shell book really to learn everything
[01:41] <MuzikJunkie> histo: enabling now
[01:42] <orgthingy> kitche: no, i want to do "windows" stuff
[01:42] <histo> MuzikJunkie: then you will ahve 3d support.
[01:42] <madfrancis> unop:`/etc/X11/xorg.conf' -> `/etc/X11/xorg.conf.bkp'
[01:42] <moshe> ok.smee.will look at it again and may get back on in a few. thx for the assist
[01:42] <MuzikJunkie> histo: it actually installed glx-new
[01:42] <histo> orgthingy: what sort of stuff are you trying to test?
[01:42] <kitche> orgthingy: well you still didn't really anwser my question since I asked what do you want to test
[01:42] <histo> MuzikJunkie: thats fine.
[01:42] <victor_> can anyone look at my dmesg output for my TV Tuner Kworld ATSC 120:  http://pastebin.com/m2eb867ba
[01:42] <Guest98728> Anyone here able to help me with Thin Client setup? Any help would be awesome, thanks.
[01:42] <histo> MuzikJunkie: it should be able to pick okay. If not you can always change it back.
[01:42] <orgthingy> histo: command line programs and some stuff..
[01:42] <unop> madfrancis, great, that indicates you have moved that file and made a backup.  you can go about doing what you were doing now
[01:42] <histo> orgthingy: like what?
[01:42] <MuzikJunkie> histo: rebooting
[01:43] <unop> madfrancis, the backup is there incase you need it later.  i.e. /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:43] <orgthingy> histo: but.. u forgot my actual question
[01:43] <madfrancis> unop: alright. I'll give it a shot. :)
[01:43] <orgthingy> is there a way i can get cmd in linux?
[01:43] <lifebug> hello together!
[01:43] <histo> orgthingy: dos now
[01:43] <histo> orgthingy: no
[01:43] <histo> orgthingy: I'm sure there is an emulator or something.
[01:43] <victor_> xtknight: can anyone look at my dmesg output for my TV Tuner Kworld ATSC 120:  http://pastebin.com/m2eb867ba
[01:43] <unop> orgthingy, why would you want cmd.exe when you have a number of shells that do everything better?
[01:44] <kitche> orgthingy: yes terminal and ctl+alt+F1 will take you to the shell but if you want dos go get dosbox
[01:44] <histo> orgthingy: you could run a virtual machine with dos installed.
[01:44] <smee> orgthingy: cmd? as in windows cmd.exe?
[01:44] <nonewmsgs> how do i mount a bin/cue combo
[01:44] <orgthingy> unop: because i want to do a windows thing
[01:44] <orgthingy> i love terminal, but i *have* to use cmd
[01:44] <unop> orgthingy, like what exactly?
[01:44] <madfrancis> unop: Crap! Now when I go to save the settings I get this... "Failed to open existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'!"
[01:44] <histo> orgthingy: then you need dosbox or wine to use windows apps
[01:44] <orgthingy> unop: i dunno, ask my school man
[01:44] <buzzsaw> i am trying to compile a program and i got http://pastebin.com/m60110c02   however apt-get does not like   makeinfo or textinfo for packages
[01:44] <orgthingy> i told my teacher i only have linux
[01:45] <histo> orgthingy: its kind of hard to answer you questions if you wont' explain.
[01:45] <orgthingy> she told me that sometimes, terminal is fine but not for all classes
[01:45] <histo> orgthingy: we've told you that you can use dosbox probably
[01:45] <victor_> xtknight: can anyone look at my dmesg output for my TV Tuner Kworld ATSC 120:  http://pastebin.com/m2eb867ba
[01:45] <SUPEROGT> Good nite, i want to load some modules at start up so i added to /etc/modules but it don't work. I guess i'm writing something wrong. The commands i use for enable my modules are modprobe ath_pci and modprobe wlan_scan_sta and i added these commands with and without the modprobe but nothing... Anyone have another alternative?
[01:45] <histo> !info dosbox > orgthingy
[01:45] <orgthingy> histo: I need cmd.. because we're taking "cmd courses" in school
[01:45] <unop> madfrancis, what are you using to adjust settings?
[01:45] <histo> I give up
[01:45] <MuzikJunkie> histo: x did not start
[01:45] <smee> orgthingy: i would suspect your teacher is not aware of what the terminal in linux is capable of
[01:46] <MuzikJunkie> histo: black screen
[01:46] <histo> MuzikJunkie: hrm. okay remove nvidia-glx-new
[01:46] <iptel> hi ALL
[01:46] <orgthingy> smee: yes yes.. but some commands in cmd are different
[01:46] <histo> MuzikJunkie: and install nvidia-glx
[01:46] <bastid_raZor> orgthingy; have you thought about a virtual machine? i just caught the last of your issues
[01:46] <victor_> xtknight: can anyone look at my dmesg output for my TV Tuner Kworld ATSC 120:  http://pastebin.com/m2eb867ba
[01:46] <orgthingy> virtual machine.. nah, it  barely works
[01:46] <iptel> народ плиз
[01:46] <MuzikJunkie> histo: aptitude purge nvidia-glx-new?
[01:46] <histo> !ru
[01:46] <smee> orgthingy: but if you need to have ait, best way is to use virtualbox and run windows/dos in there
[01:46] <JFCake> anyone know a good distro based on Ubuntu 8.04 with kernel 2.6.24 or higher?
[01:46] <orgthingy> my computer is so old :(
[01:46] <xtknight> vices, umm well 2.6.26 added support for kworld 120 btw
[01:46] <iptel> пожскажите плеер для Убунту
[01:46] <xtknight> vices, sorry wrong nick
[01:46] <iptel> мп3
[01:46] <orgthingy> ok
[01:46] <xtknight> victor_,  umm well 2.6.26 added support for kworld 120 btw
[01:46] <unop> orgthingy, wine cmd.exe
[01:46] <MuzikJunkie> histo: i cannot even get to a TTY
[01:46] <histo> orgthingy: use dosbox or virtualbox.
[01:46] <smee> orgthingy: there is also a dos emulator in the repos
[01:46] <JFCake> Nice one.
[01:46] <victor_> xtknight: did you look at my dmesg output
[01:46] <MuzikJunkie> histo: recovery mode i guess?
[01:46] <histo> MuzikJunkie: reboot and at the grub screen hit esc and select recovery mode.
[01:47] <SUPEROGT> Anyone has any idea about load modules at startup ?
[01:47] <smee> orgthingy: the dos emulator would be less of an exercise to get up and running too
[01:47] <orgthingy> ah
[01:47] <orgthingy> wine has cmd :D
[01:47] <spiritwalker> hello does anyone knows why i have sdl libs installed and when i compile something ubuntu says they are not i'm relative new in linux
[01:47] <xtknight> victor_, yes i did.  i dont know what it means
[01:47] <orgthingy> wine cmd.exe
[01:47] <orgthingy> :D
[01:47] <orgthingy> thanks a lot
[01:47] <histo> MuzikJunkie: yeah atleast we know your card is working we just have to figure out which driver it wants. IT should be nvidia-glx I don' know why it would try -new
[01:47] <WatchDragon> virtualbox = easy stuff
[01:47] <orgthingy> and yes, ill try dos emulators
[01:47] <kitche> spiritwalker: most likely need -dev
[01:47] <victor_> xtknight: i also see this [ 4387.674395] cx88[0]: Calling XC2028/3028 callback
[01:47] <xtknight> victor_, compile a 2.6.26 kernel and try
[01:47] <smee> orgthingy: you want to make sure when dealing with permissions that the wine cmd is representing the situation as per normal windows lunacy
[01:48] <MuzikJunkie> histo: and you want me to run the aptitude purge...is this the same as unchecking the package in synaptic?
[01:48] <histo> orgthingy: yeah wine cmd.exe will work for you.
[01:48] <histo> orgthingy: just install wine sudo aptitude install wine
[01:48] <xtknight> victor_, p.s. enable CONFIG_SND in the new kernel if you want sound (and the proper module for your card), something most kernel compilation guides neglect to mention
[01:48] <orgthingy> i have wine already
[01:48] <histo> MuzikJunkie: purge will remove the configuration files
[01:48] <orgthingy> :)
[01:48] <MuzikJunkie> histo: is this what i need to run?
[01:48] <unop> orgthingy, wine does not have cmd.exe -- you need to run the cmd.exe that exists in your wine installation with wine
[01:49] <histo> MuzikJunkie: but yes aptitude purge just removes the package and its configs
[01:49] <histo> MuzikJunkie: sudo aptitude purge nvidia-glx-new
[01:49] <histo> MuzikJunkie: then sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx
[01:49] <histo> MuzikJunkie: hopefully that should fix it all.
[01:49] <spiritwalker> -dev ??? sorry i'm really a small pidgin
[01:49] <orgthingy> well, it seems that it has cmd.exe :)
[01:50] <smee> orgthingy: ha, you have to use the "wine cmd" in an existing terminal though...i assumed this wasnt the case..
[01:50] <unop> orgthingy, actually wait. wine has it's own cmd.exe but it isn't the fully compatible version with the actual microsoft cmd.exe - you'll need to get cmd.exe off of a windows CD
[01:50] <kitche> spiritwalker: libsdl-dev package if your trying to compile a program
[01:50] <orgthingy> unop : oh, i see
[01:50] <unop> orgthingy, the cmd.exe that comes with wine is wine's implementation of cmd.exe
[01:50] <histo> what is wrong with him just using dosbox
[01:50] <orgthingy> i see
[01:50] <MuzikJunkie> histo: installed nvidia=glx...rebooting
[01:50] <orgthingy> so, Ill get the real cmd
[01:50] <orgthingy> ms's cmd :)
[01:51] <SebNaitsabes>  if I remember correctly  Outlook can just have it's settings imported into Thunderbird  when both are running on Windows.  however what I am wondering is if I can get the settings from Outlook running in Windows into  Thunderbird  running in Ubuntu,  without  having to say  first install Thunderbird  into Windows and then copy the relivant setting files over to the one in Ubuntu
[01:51] <histo> MuzikJunkie: cross your fingers if not we'll just remove that and use the regular vesa driver temporarily
[01:51] <histo> orgthingy: yes
[01:51] <SebNaitsabes> also like THunderbird, outlook wil have it's own settings per user?
[01:51] <Ultraputz> thunderbird works with mapi?
[01:51] <orgthingy> ok, thanks for your help
[01:51] <smee> orgthingy: depending on which version of dos your class is using for the exercises, dosbox might be your better option
[01:51] <iratsu> what's a good terminal application to burn DVDs?
[01:51] <unop> histo, if his teacher want's him to use cmd.exe and he uses dosbox, he isn't guaranteed to get the same results
[01:51] <histo> iratsu: dd
[01:51] <SUPEROGT> Good nite, i want to load some modules at start up so i added to /etc/modules but it don't work. I guess i'm writing something wrong. The commands i use for enable my modules are modprobe ath_pci and modprobe wlan_scan_sta and i added these commands with and without the modprobe but nothing... Anyone have another alternative?
[01:52] <iratsu> histo: seriously?
[01:52] <MuzikJunkie> histo: black screen
[01:52] <orgthingy> smee: im downloading "freedos" (free DOS )
[01:52] <orgthingy> and dos emulator
[01:52] <kindofabuzz> what school is still teaching DOS???!!??
[01:52] <histo> !better > iratsu
[01:52] <MuzikJunkie> histo: recover mode?
[01:52] <kitche> iratsu: growisofs is the only way to burn dvd isos unless you use dd but have not tried using dd on dvd isos
[01:52] <histo> kindofabuzz: a lot of them unfortunately
[01:52] <kindofabuzz> jeeez
[01:52] <orgthingy> kindofabuzz: theyre teaching us how to use cmd actually
[01:52] <spiritwalker> ha ok that one i don't have so for what i understand -dev packages are for when we try compile things and the others are for programs use only right??
[01:52] <smee> kindofabuzz: any school that holds history in high regard
[01:52] <unop> orgthingy, freedos does not have a cmd.exe .. iirc, it only has a command.com
[01:52] <kindofabuzz> they should teach you linux commands
[01:52] <Ultraputz> kindofabuzz - a lot of technical schools mention it because there are still a lot of systems that use it
[01:53] <orgthingy> oh :(
[01:53] <iratsu> kitche: hmm what i want to burn isn't an iso though
[01:53] <unop> kindofabuzz, the schools that expect you to work on windows ..
[01:53] <kindofabuzz> Ultraputz, true
[01:53] <SUPEROGT> they should teach how to read and think
[01:53] <histo> iratsu: make it an iso then burn that.
[01:53] <smee> kindofabuzz: true, but they are funded and indoctrinated by pay slips that dictate a microsoft world
[01:53] <Ultraputz> superogt - there'd be no point.
[01:53] <iratsu> histo: ah, ok
[01:53] <kitche> iratsu: then dd is not what you want
[01:53] <JFCake> Yo if I compile and update my kernel on hardy, will that bug/slow it a bit?
[01:53] <Ultraputz> "now that idiots have critical thinking skills, they can be stupid, critically."
[01:53] <kindofabuzz> JFCake, only if you screw it up, which is possible
[01:53] <unop> JFCake, depends on what exactly you do
 any way thank you very very much my monitor and my head just say thanks
[01:54] <yyy_> JFCake: only if you do it wrong :P
[01:54] <orgthingy> oh
[01:54] <MuzikJunkie> histo: in recovery...purge nvidia-glx?
[01:54] <lifebug> is it possible to get a seperate sound for dropping a file into trash on the desktop? i use hardy with gnome ...
[01:54] <orgthingy> DOS aint working :(
[01:54] <SUPEROGT> gosh... anyone knows any good ubuntu related forum ?
[01:55] <histo> MuzikJunkie: nvidia-glx didn't work either?
[01:55] <the_darkside_986> How does one listen to internet radio as *.asx file? Totem keeps saying "Location not found" ???
[01:55] <MuzikJunkie> histo: nope
[01:55] <histo> MuzikJunkie: wth
[01:55] <orgthingy> DOS emulator****
[01:55] <histo> MuzikJunkie: yeah I guess to get back to working X
[01:55] <yyy_> the_darkside_986: try vlc or mplayer maybe?
[01:55] <kitche> the_darkside_986: vlc or mplayer but most likely need win32codecs
[01:55] <MuzikJunkie> histo:  i get through the splash and then the last four or so lines from the startup commands blink on the screen about 5 times and then the screen goes black with no access to TTY
[01:55] <JFCake> any how-not-to-fuck-up kernel upgrade method?
[01:55] <JFCake> :P
[01:56] <kindofabuzz> JFCake, good guide here: http://www.howtoforge.com/roll_a_kernel_debian_ubuntu_way
[01:56] <kitche> !language | JFCake
[01:56] <kindofabuzz> is what i used
[01:56] <JFCake> Aight.
[01:56]  * xTheGoat121x is back
[01:57] <JFCake> Ubuntu is about love, caring and all that
[01:57] <smee> SUPEROGT: i assume you have tried the obvious ubuntuforums,org
[01:57] <JFCake> lol.
[01:57] <MISI> unop, i get a "find: /boot/grub: No such file or directory" when i use ""find /boot/grub/stage1" at grub, any idea?
[01:57] <the_darkside_986> I'm using the _LATEST_ moblock in Ubuntu Hardy and I have no idea how to whitelist specific IPs now. They changed the format or something.
[01:57] <Ultraputz> general question -- how is everyone's experience with flash under hardy ?
[01:57] <SUPEROGT> smee: not so obvious for me, i'm spanish talker :P tks
[01:57] <unop> MISI, where are you now? within the live CD?
[01:57] <MISI> yes
[01:57] <Ultraputz> after about 3 youtube flicks, it fails, sometimes restarting the browser helps.
[01:58] <MuzikJunkie> histo: now i still get a black screen
[01:58] <neothecat> has anyone have problems with 8.04 where certain apps, like vmware and rhythmbox, where i open upa  preference box, and it just freezes?
[01:58] <histo> MuzikJunkie: after removing nvidia-glx?
[01:58] <kindofabuzz> Ultraputz, try Flash 10 beta, solved alot of crashing for me
[01:58] <MuzikJunkie> histo: yes
[01:58] <smee> SUPEROGT: ah. but english is not a problem to deal with no ?
[01:58] <histo> MuzikJunkie: and it worked the first time?
[01:58] <MuzikJunkie> histo: yes
[01:58] <unop> MISI, did you mount your linux partitions?
[01:58] <MuzikJunkie> histo: restore an old xorg/
[01:58] <Ultraputz> kindof - is it in backports or ?
[01:58] <ilowe> anybody know about console-kit-daemon taking up 100% of one of my cpus?
[01:58] <generato1> OK lets see if I can word this correctly. I get authentication failed when attempting to connect to ftp-server running pure-ftpd over SSH. Any help please.......
[01:58] <smee> SUPEROGT: since im not aure about a spanish ubuntuforums
[01:58] <histo> MuzikJunkie: it should have on its own.
[01:58] <kindofabuzz> Ultraputz, no, you gotta d/l it
[01:58] <kindofabuzz> google it
[01:58] <histo> MuzikJunkie: edit the xorg.conf and change the driver to vesa from nvidia see what happens.
[01:58] <Ultraputz> from adoobie?
[01:58] <histo> MuzikJunkie: or nv
[01:58] <Ultraputz> otay
[01:58] <kindofabuzz> yup
[01:58] <SUPEROGT> they are mhhhh slow?
[01:59] <histo> MuzikJunkie: I would try nv first then vesa
[01:59] <kindofabuzz> lol adoobie
[01:59] <MISI> unop, i installed in on same partiyion as windows
[01:59] <MuzikJunkie> histo: where do i go from here?
[01:59] <histo> MuzikJunkie: you can restart sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[01:59] <SUPEROGT> they don't respond ever... so i tried another option like irc but is useless
[01:59] <unop> MISI, eh? you mean you installed linux on an ntfs partition?
[01:59] <MuzikJunkie> histo: no access to TTY...have to pull the power
[01:59] <kindofabuzz> imposible ain't it?
[01:59] <SUPEROGT> they don't respond ever... so i tried another option like irc but is useless
[01:59] <histo> MuzikJunkie: Are you sure this is an nvidia card?
[02:00] <SUPEROGT> tks smee
[02:00] <MuzikJunkie> histo: XFX NVIDIA GEFORCE
[02:00] <histo> MuzikJunkie: reboot the recovery mode and sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:00] <smee> SUPEROGT: most of what i have learnt about linux over that last 4-5 years has been through my own experimentation and friends
[02:00] <MISI> unop, yes, its bad?
[02:00] <histo> MuzikJunkie: you are going to want ot change the driver section to nv from nvidia
[02:00] <histo> !nvidia > MuzikJunkie
[02:00] <MuzikJunkie> histo: ok never used nano
[02:01] <jimd1> hi guys.  I'm trying to add a new user to my ubuntu desktop set up.  When I create the account using System > Administration > Users and Groups, after the account appears to b created it is missing a number of folders such as music, pictures, public, etc. Anyone have any ideas on how these other folders "should" get created?
[02:01] <histo> MuzikJunkie: its an editor
[02:01] <unop> MISI, yes indeed, grub does not know how to read off of ntfs partitions to get the boot images
[02:01] <smee> SUPEROGT: not being a stagnant project means it always presenting new things to learn
[02:01] <histo> MuzikJunkie: the keys ont he bottom are Ctrl then the letter
[02:01] <MuzikJunkie> histo: i know, just not familiar with it
[02:01] <histo> MuzikJunkie: well use which ever editor your are familiar with.
[02:01] <corpus_fenestrum> quit
[02:01] <smee> jimd1: this  behaviour you want is like windows server profiles ?
[02:01] <histo> MuzikJunkie: nano will ask you to save any changes on exit.
[02:01] <smee> jimd1: it is possible with linux, but i forget how
[02:01] <MISI> unop, i jusy used the option that was in the installation, so what can i do now>
[02:02] <MuzikJunkie> histo: nothing in there about nvidia...there is a glx module though
[02:02] <unop> jimd1, these directories get created as and when needed by applications that the user runs
[02:02] <MuzikJunkie> hist: gedit :-)
[02:02] <unop> MISI, the best thing to do is create a new partition with gparted, and install linux on that one
[02:03] <jimd1> unop:  when my first account was created by the installer (when I first installed ubuntu) it created these folders for me.
[02:03] <smee> jimd1:ahh i think i remember now, there is a folder somewhere with this blank setup that gets used
[02:03] <MuzikJunkie> hist: device sectiojn has "Configured video device"  Driver nvidia...there it is
[02:03] <unop> jimd1, edit /etc/skel then
[02:03] <unop> smee, ^^
[02:03] <smee> jimd1: try searching on ubuntu forums for these words : new user profile home
[02:03] <jimd1> unop:  I am supposed to copy those?
[02:04] <generato1> does anyone here know how to configure SSH??
[02:04] <smee> jimd1: no, this folder is copied by the 'new user' app when you create the user
[02:04] <unop> jimd1, no, create all the files and folders that you expect the new user to have in /etc/skel .. whenever you create a new user from then on, those files and folders will be copied to the user's homedir
[02:04] <MISI> unop, ok, i will try, i have also a qurstion, how yo uninstall that one from the ntfs partition, the wondows installer cant do it
[02:04] <MuzikJunkie> histo: driver is nvidia and glx module is present
[02:05] <jimd1> smee:  i used the System > administration > users and groups to create the new user.  i simply filled in the dialog box and clicked.  those folders are not copied or made at that time
[02:05] <madfrancis>  I'm trying to set up dual monitors VGA + DVI and no matter what I try I can't get it to work. I'm working with the sudo nvidia-settings and even though it seems to be setup right I'm not seeing anything on my second display. Any ideas?
[02:05] <LostFayth> While building a kernel (from git, following instructions from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile) I got this: http://pastebin.com/d7848ddd1 Any ideas on how to fix?
[02:05] <pale-yafa> lspci -v shows me this
[02:05] <pale-yafa> 03:01.1 Multimedia controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Audio Capture (rev 11)
[02:05] <pale-yafa> 	Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 21

[02:05] <pale-yafa> 	Capabilities: <access denied>
[02:05] <unop> MISI, you'll probably need to boot up into windows and delete all the linux directories from C: (or the drive letter your windows install uses)
[02:05] <smee> jimd1: yep follow waht unop said
[02:05] <pale-yafa> is this <access denied> ok?
[02:06] <Ultraputz> kindofabuzz -- the installer hangs on "warning: please enter a valid installation path"
[02:06] <smee> jimd1:  "/etc/skel " hold this 'new user's home folder setup' template
[02:06] <unop> !paste | pale-yafa
[02:06] <Ultraputz> when i give it /usr/lib/mozilla, it just repeats the warning
[02:06] <unop> pale-yafa, you might need to use sudo as needed
[02:06] <MISI> unop, ok, thanks for your help
[02:06] <kindofabuzz> Ultraputz, are you using the flash right now from the repos?
[02:06] <pale-yafa> unop: I would use paste if it was long, but I think 4 lines are ok
[02:06] <Ultraputz> ja
[02:07] <kindofabuzz> Ultraputz, abort the installer
[02:07] <Ultraputz> ja
[02:07] <unop> pale-yafa, no, 4 lines is still a disruption -- if it's more than a line, use a pastebin
[02:07] <Ultraputz> it's quit
[02:07] <kindofabuzz> Ultraputz, do you know how to cp command line?
[02:07] <Ultraputz> pull it from apt/synpatic?
[02:07] <kindofabuzz> no
[02:07] <Ultraputz> ja, command line proficient

[02:09] <Ultraputz> kind - permissions?
[02:09] <kindofabuzz> Ultraputz, close any browsers open first
[02:09] <Windsurfer619> rockenrola1: Oh. My bad. Is there something on the DVD already?
[02:09] <kindofabuzz> Ultraputz, sudo cp
[02:09] <ambrosyo> anyone can help me here?

[02:09] <rmull> Hello, is it possible to get a "rush delivery" of a large number of Ubuntu CDs to Boston MA before September? I need around 50 and am willing to pay up to $20.
[02:09] <overlordpuppy> My recording sound is picking up a lot of static and is making my voice really deep, but my regular sound is fine. It was suggested yesterday by someone that it's my sampling rate. How can I fix it? If you want to hear the sound, http://www.underscorelive.com/Voice.wav <-- Sample saying "Test Test Test"
[02:09] <rockenrola1> Windsurfer619: no. virgin DVD's

[02:10] <Windsurfer619> rockenrola1: I'm sorry then, I can't help you :(
[02:10] <ambrosyo> is it ubuntu supported for a webcam?
[02:10] <rockenrola1> ok
[02:10] <Xsss4hell> Howto setup a fake camera that streams the screen
[02:10] <JFCake> ambrosyo, yarly
[02:10] <Ultraputz> buzz - doing the youtube test.
[02:10] <rockenrola1> Xsss4hell: vlc ?
[02:10] <ambrosyo> english pls JFCake
[02:10] <smee> Xsss4hell: i wasnt aware that amsn could even do voice not to mention video
[02:11] <JFCake> ambrosyo,  yes really.
[02:11] <kindofabuzz> Ultraputz, if you read the flash 10 release notes, hardware acceleration in linux does not work with compiz
[02:11] <ambrosyo> JFCake can i talk to u in private to help me
[02:11] <JFCake> No.
[02:11] <unop> rockenrola1, 4.3 Gibibytes translates to about 4.7 Gigabytes
[02:11] <Xsss4hell> smee I just talk with a designer who shows me his screen, no He streams his screen. he has windows I have ubuntu ;)
[02:11] <smee> kindofabuzz: you mean that compiz + hardware accel does not work with the flash player
[02:11] <rockenrola1> unop: that is interesting
[02:11] <smee> Xsss4hell: and ?
[02:12] <smee> Xsss4hell:amsn is not msn
[02:12] <Xsss4hell> rockenrola1, I need a fake hardware device that I can select as v4l2 device
[02:12] <kindofabuzz> smee, no flash hardware accel does not work with compiz on
[02:12] <Xsss4hell> smee, correct
[02:12] <Ultraputz> buzz -- "about flash 10" in the menu, so good so far, except... didn't actually load video
[02:12] <ambrosyo> JFCake: im using ubuntu 8.04 LRS how do i install a web camera,
[02:12] <kindofabuzz> Ultraputz, something else is screw then lol
[02:12] <smee> Xsss4hell: and i'm not sure why you want to use a instant messenger to stream video
[02:12] <rockenrola1> Xsss4hell: fake? you don't have a camera? then I don't know.
[02:12] <Ultraputz> restarted again, now it's happy,
[02:12] <Ultraputz> and fast.
[02:13] <unop> rockenrola1, storage vendors count in increments of 10^3 .. while disk usage utilities count in increments of 2^10
[02:13] <Xsss4hell> rockenrola1, I have a camera, I don't want to adjust my camera to record my screen
[02:13] <kindofabuzz> Ultraputz, better?
[02:13] <smee> Xsss4hell: because it's possbile to setup vlc as a stream server
[02:13] <Xsss4hell> rockenrola1, I want to directly stream my screen
[02:13] <Ultraputz> watching the compiz fusion demo video, wondering what it woudl be like to have a graphics card built during the present decade :-)
[02:13] <Ultraputz> rocks so far, thanks a lot man
[02:13] <kindofabuzz> np
[02:13] <ani1> Hey all, I am having a problem with my sound. After reboots it stops working correctly i have purged the alsa installs and restarted alsa-utils. The only thing that will produce sound, and only in 1 ear, is to `sudo /sbin/alsa force-reload` but if i modify the volume sound stops working. This isn't a hardware issue since it worked before the reboot... My ALSA output is found here http://pastebin.ca/1080205
[02:13] <unop> rockenrola1, meaning. a gigabyte is 1000 megabytes but a gibibyte is 1024 mebibytes
[02:13] <Xsss4hell> smee, what if he has no vlc ;)
[02:13] <Xsss4hell> smee, just msn
[02:14] <Xsss4hell> I know it is possible
[02:14] <smee> Xsss4hell: it's a trival matter since vlc is free
[02:14] <rockenrola1> Xsss4hell: that is a interesting project. good luck
[02:14] <ambrosyo> guy, teach me how to install a web camera in ubuntu?
[02:14] <Guest29957> what do you do with web cam
[02:14] <Ultraputz> get paid to take your clothes off.
[02:14] <jimcooncat> Xsss4hell: I don't remember which package it is, but I used to stream a jpeg image. Any firefox could see the cam
[02:14] <rockenrola1> unop: I knew tha,. but didn't remember. It seems that it must be that
[02:15] <Guest29957> what
[02:15] <Xsss4hell> rockenrola1, it's not a project, that's something that exists I don't know the name of the app
[02:15] <Ultraputz> most people just point them at webs and watch them. it's like the weather channel, but more exciting.
[02:15] <ambrosyo> i want to install my webcam
[02:15] <Guest29957> clothes off
[02:15] <ambrosyo> but i dont know how to install it
[02:15] <smee> Xsss4hell: have you tried searching in synaptic for screen recording apps?
[02:16] <jimcooncat> ambrosyo: I believe camorama is a good package to test it with
[02:16] <filsuf> I have a lot of problem with firefox
[02:16] <smee> Xsss4hell: and searching forums for vlc stream server?
[02:16] <filsuf> it keeps on crashing
[02:16] <Ultraputz> ambrosyo -- look for a wiki for video4linux
[02:16] <ambrosyo> how about im using yahoo messenger
[02:16] <Ultraputz> they have a list of hardware and drivers, if your equipment is on there, it may save you some trouble
[02:16] <Guest29957> any other good chat irc
[02:16] <Xsss4hell> smee, vlc is not my thing. I want to just use a different video device. A fake video device that streams my screen
[02:17] <smee> Xsss4hell: which vlc does i believe
[02:17] <ambrosyo> im trying to download camorama but they cannot install
[02:17] <Ultraputz> xsss - does Istanbul do what you need?
[02:17] <DARKGuy> hey guys, any way to control mpd through audacious ?
[02:17] <Guest29957> istanbul
[02:17] <DARKGuy> wtf
[02:17] <jimcooncat> Xsss4hell: you could use vnc, but I'm afraid it would be very choppy
[02:18] <Xsss4hell> Ultraputz, no Istanbul doesn create a virtual webcam
[02:18] <rockenrola1> Xsss4hell: in a quick google it seems that vlc also does screencast. if true then the streaming comes along.
[02:18] <Xsss4hell> rockenrola1, he streams to me and is surfing and photoshopping very fluid
[02:19] <smee> Xsss4hell: but he is using windows

[02:19] <Xsss4hell> smee, yes I want something like this for linux http://www.fakewebcam.com

[02:20] <filsuf> does anybody know that Obama uses Ubuntu?
[02:20] <DARKGuy> hey guys, is there any way to control mpd through audacious ?
[02:20] <filsuf> McCain is computer illiterate ... Bush uses Mac, Clinton too
[02:20] <filsuf> Obama uses Ubuntu?
[02:20] <smee> Xsss4hell: ok i just googled for "stream desktop via vlc" and got this : http://schiralli.wordpress.com/2008/02/05/stream-your-desktop-as-a-video-using-vlc-maclinuxwindows/
[02:20] <ani1> Hey all, I am having a problem with my sound. After reboots it stops working correctly i have purged the alsa installs and restarted alsa-utils. The only thing that will produce sound, and only in 1 ear, is to `sudo /sbin/alsa force-reload` but if i modify the volume sound stops working. This isn't a hardware issue since it worked before the reboot... My ALSA output is found here http://pastebin.ca/1080205
[02:21] <Xsss4hell> smee, obviously yes ;) but it should be possible maybe it is out there and we don't know the name of the app
[02:21] <Ultraputz> yeah, so he doesn't need an MS Office license to write press releases about his capitulation to the right and the militarism. yay ubuntu?
[02:21] <Windsurfer619> DARKGuy: I highly doubt it's possible.
[02:21] <Ultraputz> "check out! charles manson uses fedora!" :-)
[02:22] <DARKGuy> Windsurfer619: there's not a plugin? :(
[02:22] <Xsss4hell> too complex http://allonlinux.free.fr/Projets/AVLD/

[02:22] <djs>  Hey guys, the first meeting of #southeastlinuxfest has just started, if you want to come, you are most warmly welcome.
[02:23] <smee> Xsss4hell: the other issue is that no IM in linux will stream video
[02:23] <Ultraputz> southeast what?
[02:23] <djs> Think SUPERLUG
[02:23] <Xsss4hell> smee, amsn does!
[02:23] <Xsss4hell> X.Org X server -- void input driver
[02:23] <Xsss4hell> hmm
[02:23] <rockenrola1> Xsss4hell: what is your ultimate goal?
[02:23] <Ultraputz> southeast antarctica? southeast ukraine?
[02:24] <kitche> djs: please go to #ubuntu-offtopic to say that
[02:24] <metalpres> how do you get hardware video decoding working in ubuntu?  when using both vlc and mplayer I use the same cpu% playing a video using XVideo, X11, and OpenGL (in mplayer) since opengl wont work at all in vlc
[02:24] <Pici> !ot
[02:24] <Xsss4hell> rockenrola1, to show him my desktop and the project I'm working on with him
[02:24] <metalpres> i have the latest nvidia drivers installed and working
[02:24] <Xsss4hell> rockenrola1, like vnc but over a webcam session in msn
[02:24] <Xsss4hell> amsn
[02:24] <Scunizi> anyone know how to enable usb support in virtualbox?  #vbox is dead right now.
[02:25] <Guest29957> any interesting irc servers
[02:25] <rockenrola1> Xsss4hell: ok. but why not vnc then? it will do the trick
[02:25] <Xsss4hell> rockenrola1, but he need vnc also right?
[02:25] <kdb424> Can someone help me? I have a tripple boot system, windows XP, Mac and Ubuntnu, and want to access my music files in Ubuntu. Any ideas?
[02:26] <smee> Xsss4hell: if you run vlc screen:// you get what you want
[02:26] <SebNaitsabes> kdb424: on  an Apple Mac?
[02:26] <smee> you then need to redirect vlc output to amsn
[02:26] <rockenrola1> Xsss4hell: yes. I see your problem now
[02:26] <tech0007> kdb424: where's ur music stored?
[02:26] <Delts> Hi all, I was wondering how to build a custom keymap.  Anyone able to help me?
[02:26] <kdb424> SebNaitsabes : Yea. I'm official
[02:26] <Guest29957> any interesting irc servers
[02:26] <kdb424> My music folder in my username's folder
[02:27] <tech0007> kdb424: i mean in what partition? ubuntu, mac or xp?
[02:27] <kdb424> ohhh. mac
[02:27] <Scunizi> how do I enable sharing of folders/directories?
[02:27] <SebNaitsabes> kdb424:  how did you get Windows on there boot camp?
[02:27] <Guest29957> any interesting irc servers
[02:27] <kdb424> When I am in ubuntnu, it won't allow access
[02:27] <SebNaitsabes> kdb424: is Windows on a NTFS partition?
[02:27] <tech0007> kdb424: 'sudo fdisk -l' and paste the output in paste.ubuntu.com
[02:27] <kdb424> SebNaitsabes : Boot camp
[02:27] <bonhoffer> trying to decide between freenas and ubuntu for my new file server -- any recommendations either way
[02:28] <overlordpuppy> Help! X( This is the 3rd day in a row I came on here to fix the same problem
[02:28] <kdb424> Windows is on Fat 32
[02:28] <Xsss4hell> rockenrola1, it is a very simple idea. LOOPBACk from screen to another virtual v4l2 device
[02:28] <Scunizi> nevermind
[02:28] <bonhoffer> it looks like freenas might do what i need, but i am not sure about using it as a print server
[02:28] <bonhoffer> and if i use ubuntu i am not sure if i can do software raid
[02:28] <bonhoffer> still confused about how software raid works
[02:28] <kdb424> I'm in mac now, Will it still work?
[02:28] <SebNaitsabes> kdb424: well on PC's anyway with Ubuntu Hardy Heron.  there is a built in driver for Windows that is on a NTFS.  and  files can as a result easily be moved/copyed into Ubuntu
[02:28] <tech0007> bonhoffer: there's lots of soft raid howto's out there
[02:29] <Zoem> Hi, is there a way to see which process originated a network packet?
[02:29] <bonhoffer> tech0007, sure, i've been poking at them
[02:29] <SebNaitsabes> kdb424: bootcamp hummm do you know about Mac virtualmachine software?
[02:29] <bonhoffer> can ubuntu do that?
[02:29] <kdb424> I want them to remain where they are, because I can access all mac files, except my username protects them from accessing them
[02:29] <bonhoffer> someone told me i can do different hard-drive sizes on freenas -- with software raid
[02:29] <tech0007> kdb424: do u see the xp partition under Places menu?
[02:29] <bonhoffer> that doesn't make sense
[02:29] <kdb424> SebNaitsabes : Yea, I prefer trippleboot because I can still use them as virtual machines too
[02:29] <Xsss4hell> so I redefine the question
[02:29] <bonhoffer> i guess the drobo does something like that
[02:30] <kdb424> Yea. I see the linux and XP
[02:30] <SebNaitsabes> kdb424: oh right using a psyical install as a VM?
[02:30] <kdb424> SebNaitsabes : yep
[02:30] <smee> Xsss4hell: look to see if amsn accepts video in via a pipe command
[02:30] <Xsss4hell> Howto loopback the Xservers output to a virtual device
[02:30] <smee> Xsss4hell: vlc screen:// --stdout = <amsn pipe in >
[02:31] <tech0007> kdb424: you cant access your music when you're in ubuntu?
[02:31] <Xsss4hell> smee it doesn't
[02:31] <kdb424> tech0007 : I can see and use all files on every partition in mac and lunix
[02:31] <bonhoffer> tech0007, not sure if this is the best room for freenas /software raid discussions, any recommendations where i can go?
[02:31] <tmapj> hey could someone please explain to me how to get your microphone working in ubuntu?
[02:31] <smee> Xsss4hell: then  you need to setup a virtual vidoe device that amsn can see
[02:31] <jimcooncat> amsn
[02:31] <jimcooncat> supports no commandline options. Everything is done via the GUI.
[02:31] <kdb424> No. It's protected. I can see everything but what's in the username folders
[02:32] <kdb424> tmapj : Depends on the system
[02:32] <tmapj> kdb424, what do you mean the "system"
[02:32] <tech0007> bonhoffer: try #freenas
[02:32] <smee> Xsss4hell: once you got that , then you use : vlc screen:// --stdout <virtual video device>
[02:32] <bonhoffer> tech0007, yeah -- it is dead
[02:32] <anteaya> i am trying to get skype <IP_ADDRESS> working in hardy with an usb Edirol UA-25 sound card.  I found skype_dsp_hijacker and am not sure if that is the correct direction, I havn't had any success so far.  Any takers?
[02:32] <tech0007> kdb424: so waht do u want to do?
[02:32] <kdb424> tmapj : Hardware
[02:32] <tmapj> you mean my microphone?
[02:32] <smallfry> what is a program that you can use to uncompress .rars?
[02:32] <kdb424> tech0007 : I want to leave the music where it is, but be able to play it in ubuntnu also
[02:33] <tech0007> smallfry: file-roller in ubuntu
[02:33] <moshe_> smallfry,try unrar.it's in the snaptic package manager
[02:33] <SebNaitsabes> smallfry:  or 7zip  in the command line or the GUI one under Wine
[02:33] <kdb424> tmapj : That and the computer, which I guess determines the mic. My drivers are different than yours, but I had to install some
[02:33] <tech0007> kdb424: i use rhythmbox in my dualboot box, my music is in ntfs xp
[02:33] <Zoem> I am watching network traffic on wireshark, and see a lot of dns requests originating from my computer to an IP address it can't reach, for locations I've never heard of. Any ideas how to track down what is causing this?
[02:34] <R0b0t1> I've just tried to run a windows game, and it tried to go fullscreen and now my screensize is stuck at 800x600 on a 19200x1600 monitor. How can I change it back? Theres no way to access the normal menu, for some reason its overlapped with other stuff and all.
[02:34] <tmapj> kdb424,  how do i determine what drivers i need to install and where do i find them
 rightclick on your volume applet in the bar - or use alsamixer in a shell & try to mute/unmute the mic with key "m"
[02:34] <kdb424> tech0007 : I am trying to use rythembox too, but because of me using itunes and an ipod with mac, I don't want to change the location
[02:34] <Mr_Giraffe> oh, speaking of sound, it seems that some system update killed sound on my computer
[02:34] <Xsss4hell> I found something
[02:34] <Xsss4hell> but need help to understand the package
[02:34] <Mr_Giraffe> i'm running a vanilla hp tx2000 on 8.04, my system is fully updated, and the sound works on vista
[02:34] <Mr_Giraffe> so it's not a hardware problem, but a driver problem
[02:35] <Aranel> Is using "sudo apt-get autoremove" secure ? Its trying to remove lot of things :)
[02:35] <kdb424> tmapj : Sorry to say it, but the only way I can think of it is to look up your computer specs, or maybe try a generic driver. I have a Mac, so drivers are easy to find, because there are so few different types of macs
[02:35] <tech0007> kdb424: my music stays in xp, i just changed the folder monitored by rhythmbox
[02:35] <tmapj> lifebug how do you run alsa mixer
[02:35] <Zoem> I am watching network traffic on wireshark, and see a lot of dns requests originating from my computer to an IP address it can't reach, for locations I've never heard of. Any ideas how to track down what is causing this?
[02:35] <anteaya> Zoem, i found this link to be an interesting read: http://blog.gnist.org/article.php?story=HollidayCracking
[02:35] <rockenrola1> Aranel: yes. I use it all the time
[02:35] <Xsss4hell> can somebody tell me if this can create a virtual device that can stream my desktop ? xserver-xephyr in combination with xoo
[02:35] <Zoem> anteaya thanks I'll have a look
[02:35] <Xsss4hell> xserver-xephyr & xoo
[02:35] <tech0007> Aranel: autoremove is like cleaning up unneeded packges, its safe
[02:35] <kdb424> Yea I get that. My mac partition is the big one though. Windows is too small to be used for holding that kind of stuff
[02:35] <anteaya> Zoem, HTH
[02:35] <Aranel> ok thanks :)

[02:38] <Mr_Giraffe> recent meaning within the last couple days
[02:38] <Aranel> tech0007: :P Im using kubuntu and i have it. it can be really old package :/
[02:39] <kdb424> tech0007 : It says I do not have permission to access the files
[02:39] <kindofabuzz> evon,  sudo cp /whereverflash10is/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree
[02:39] <kdb424> and I can't change them in ubuntu
[02:39] <tech0007> Aranel: yup, autoremove is safe (most of the time)

[02:49] <troythetechguy>  I think I found a solution that will allow me to run 8.10.  The VESA video driver appears to work great, but how do I remove the "nv" driver that is installed by default, and install the Vesa driver?
[02:50] <kdb424> tech0007 : How do I know what number to put in? Is it always the same?

[02:50] <Zoem> rafaelscj no, everything looked pretty normal. lots of dups of winbindd, apache2, and samba, though
[02:50] <san_zzz> troythetechguy, just edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf find nv and replace vesa

[02:54] <Mr_Bad_News> what does AT stand for lifebug "visual" start the prefered at?
[02:54] <vilemaxim> kushal_12_27_200: you could see if you could ssh into the machine
[02:54] <vilemaxim> from another
[02:54] <uriel_> hello/
[02:54] <uriel_> ?
[02:55] <Gibbster> Or failing that, at least some words of sympathy ;-)
[02:55] <kushal_12_27_200> alt + f2 still does nothing. trying ctrl + alt + backspace ...
[02:55] <vilemaxim> kushal_12_27_200: that will restart X... which will kill all apps
[02:55] <kushal_12_27_200> vilemaxim, even that is not working ...
[02:55] <vilemaxim> kushal_12_27_200: not exactily what you were asking for.
[02:56] <vilemaxim> kushal_12_27_200: ssh?
[02:56] <kushal_12_27_200> have not tried ssh yet
[02:56] <wicker> hello
[02:56] <vilemaxim> kushal_12_27_200: if that doesn't work... you willl have to hard shutdown... sorry

[02:58] <captain_> rockenrola1 thanks for the link how to remove icons, do you any resources for automounting my second HD at boot?
[02:58] <kushal_12_27_200> how can I find out what to put in the ip address in ssh username@ipaddress ?
[02:59] <vilemaxim> ubuntu_: I'd try deleting the partion and recreating them.  Sometimes rebooting after messing with the partitions helps
[02:59] <Zoem> kushal_12_27_200 to connect to yourself?
[02:59] <uriel_> kn thanks for nothing
[02:59] <uriel_> jk i know u guys r busy
[02:59] <tech0007> kushal_12_27_200: that's the ip of the machine u want to connect to
[02:59] <vilemaxim> kushal_12_27_200: if you have access to the dhcp server you could look there
[02:59] <evon> kindofabuzz: anything yet?
[02:59] <kushal_12_27_200> well, i am on a macbook now but it is the ubuntu machine that is frozen
[02:59] <evon> kindofabuzz: thanks for the help by the way https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/<IP_ADDRESS>ubuntu2
[02:59] <rockenrola1> captain_: do you know your way around the fstab file ?
[02:59] <ubuntu_> vilemaxim:  i have data in them
[02:59] <Gibbster> Is there any reason that having the sata drives in the system would make ubuntu think the ide drive is a scsi drive?
[03:00] <vilemaxim> kushal_12_27_200: a lot of the router's web interfaces can show you the dhcp client leases
[03:00] <holyguyver> I recently updated my software trough synaptic & there was an update to the nividia stuff & now although the screen resalution on my desktop is alright, my log in screen is very messed up showing me only the upper left hand corner of it, the rest of the log in manager being far too big for my screen & being far beyond the edge of it. could someone please help me?
[03:00] <Zoem> kushal_12_27_200 your IP adress is <IP_ADDRESS>
 sry!? you just have to put the program to the files named under "startup-programs" in your session-preferences.
[03:00] <kdb424> I'm off to ubuntu. I'll be back
[03:00] <pan03243> how do i get firefox32bit to work on 64bit ubuntu?
[03:00] <captain_> rockenrola1 nope, does this look like a solid tutorial? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=802699&highlight=automount
[03:00] <Gibbster> Having my system unbootable as soon as a drive fails would kind of defeat the point of raid
[03:00] <Zoem> kushal_12_27_200 greetings from lakewood ^_^
[03:00] <ubuntu_> vilemaxim:  i have data in them. i will get deleted if i recreated them
[03:00] <captain_> rockenrola1 just trying to be cautious
[03:00] <Mr_Bad_News> i already added that lifebug does it matter?
[03:00] <kushal_12_27_200> connection refused
[03:01] <Zoem> I am watching network traffic on wireshark, and see a lot of dns requests originating from my computer to an IP address it can't reach, for locations I've never heard of. Any ideas how to track down what is causing this?
[03:01] <craigbass1976> I'm booted to a livecd on a busted windows box.  Is there ANY way to import the IE bookmarks into the livecd mozilla so that I can then dump them out and restore once I've reinstalled windows?
[03:01] <vilemaxim> ubuntu_:  you were installing ubuntu on a partition you have data on?
[03:01] <vilemaxim> kushal_12_27_200: did you have ssh installed?
[03:01] <craigbass1976> Right now windows partition in is /mnt
[03:01] <holyguyver> How do I resize my login manager?
[03:01] <Zoem> kushal_12_27_200 is there an ssh server on the computer you are trying to connect to?
[03:01] <kushal_12_27_200> no, vilemaxim, I guess I will have to hard boot.
[03:01] <rockenrola1> captain_: always backup before experimenting and you are safe. Worst case scenario use a livecd to restore any files
[03:01] <vilemaxim> kushal_12_27_200: sorry
[03:01] <kushal_12_27_200> thanks a lot for helping
[03:02] <ubuntu_> vilemaxim:  i have other partitions on a hd. and i want to install ubuntu on one of them. but the installed or g/qtparted isnot showing any partitions. just the hd.
[03:02] <rockenrola1> captain_: yah, you can follow that tutorial
[03:02] <lifebug> Mr_Bad_News: hmm - then it starts 2 times, when your window-manager starts
[03:02] <vilemaxim> kushal_12_27_200: no problem... linux gives you more options when you are having these kinds of problems, but there is no magic bullet
[03:02] <captain_> rockenrola1 thank you
[03:02] <rafaelscj> Zoem, if your computer is resquesting, look at /etc/resolv.conf
[03:03] <rockenrola1> captain_: what filesystem is your second hardrive ?
[03:03] <vilemaxim> ubuntu_: hmmmm.... sounds like the partition table got messed up.  I would test the harddrive first
[03:03] <Mr_Bad_News> i didnt add it to xsession lifebug does that matter?
[03:03] <Mr_Bad_News> why would it load twice
[03:03] <captain_> rockenrola1 it is NTFS
[03:03] <holyguyver> !resize
[03:03] <kushal_12_27_200> I understand, vilemaxim. I am now booting into Windows before rebooting to go back to ubuntu.
[03:03] <ubuntu_> vilemaxim:  how
[03:03] <holyguyver> !login manager
 no
[03:04] <kushal_12_27_200> !xkill
[03:04] <ubuntu_> vilemaxim:  fdisk -l is show partions good.
[03:04] <holyguyver> !help
[03:04] <ubuntu_> vilemaxim:  how would you check the hd
[03:04] <Zoem> rafaelscj /etc/resolve.conf lists the DNS servers my ISP provides me. The requests are going to <IP_ADDRESS> I am not on a local network
[03:04] <vilemaxim> ubuntu_: I use UBCD http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ ... Seagate puts out a harddrive diagnostic tool
[03:04] <ubuntu_> vilemaxim:  and ya. when runing windows. it got held 2 times.
[03:04] <ubuntu_> vilemaxim:  held = no keyboard mouxe usage.
[03:04] <Zoem> !login-manager | holyguyver
[03:05] <Zoem> oh
[03:05] <Gibbster> hmm... no drive geeks arounnd?

[03:05] <Pici> !msgthebot
[03:06] <vilemaxim> ubuntu_: hmmm... I might not be able to help you.  I don't believe I ever ran into that situation.... And I work as a repair shop that uses linux a lot.
[03:06] <holyguyver> Pici how do I resize the login manager?
[03:06] <Pici> holyguyver: I dont know, sorry.
[03:06] <chuck> hi, when i tried to upgrade my server with apt-get upgrade, it said all the packages under "the following packages have been kept back" how do i upgrade them
[03:06] <vilemaxim> ubuntu_: I would still test the drive
[03:06] <Pici> chuck: apt-get dist-upgrade
[03:06] <tech0007> chuck: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[03:06] <holyguyver> Pici, well we was trying to pick ubottu's brain about it, be ubotu doesn't seem to know either.
[03:07] <Zoem> holyguyver System->Administration->Login Window
[03:07] <tech0007> how can i get file-roller to support 7z archives?
[03:07] <ubuntu_> vilemaxim:  which tool do you sue again?
[03:07] <Zoem> holyguyver just didn't know the package name :\
[03:07] <chuck> thank you Pici and tech0007
[03:07]  * MISI`afk is now auto-away after 1h idle
[03:07] <vilemaxim> ubuntu_:  http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/

[03:07] <Pici> !away > MISI`afk
[03:07] <lifebug> .<Mr_Bad_News>: i hope i understand you in the right way. you can start your window-manager from console by making a file ".xinitrc" with your wm in it (gnome-wm, fvwm2 for instance)
[03:07] <smee> tech0007: sudo apt-cache search 7zip
[03:08] <holyguyver> Zoem, where in that can I resize the resalution for it?
[03:08] <tech0007> smee: 7zip or p7zip?
[03:08] <holyguyver> seperate from my system rez
[03:08] <Mr_Bad_News> lifebug, i want avant to start when gnome loads
[03:08] <vilemaxim> ubuntu_:  and  http://www.seagate.com/www/en-us/support/downloads/seatools/
[03:08] <Mr_Bad_News> and conky
[03:08] <hydroponic> What are the correct permissions for /home/ directories? I don't want other users on the system to be able to see and copy my files
[03:08] <rafaelscj> Zoem, check your ip settings, with "ifconfig", it is like a gateway's ip
[03:08] <FF|h0lus> hi
[03:09] <smee> tech0007: it shows me only p7zip
[03:09] <FF|h0lus> i have one problem :P I have installed Windows and Ubuntu
 yes - ok. than you don't hab
[03:09] <hydroponic> Mr_Bad_News: Go to System -> Preferences -> Sessions
[03:09] <FF|h0lus> In windows i have Wireless and normally connecting
[03:09] <Gibbster> hydroponic: 600 would work
[03:09] <Zoem> holyguyver resolution is set with with the X server, so, change the resolution of your X and it will take the login window with it
[03:09] <hydroponic> Gibbster: I still want my public_html to work, would it?
[03:09] <ubuntu_> vilemaxim:  thx
[03:09] <tech0007> smee: i installed p7zip, but it's not extracting an archive i got from torrent
[03:09] <FF|h0lus> In ubuntu i have wireless but I can't connect
 yes - ok. than you don't have to handle the xsession. just add it to startup-progs in sessions
[03:10] <Mr_Bad_News> is there a way to get nautilus permission preferences like they were in dapper with the check boxes instead of the pull down menus
[03:10] <holyguyver> Zoem, but my resalution is fine, only on my loginwindow it is different then the rest of my system.
[03:10] <vilemaxim> Gibbster: huh? hydroponic that will not work
[03:10] <smee> tech0007: your in gnome?
[03:10] <Mr_Bad_News> the menus dont have all the options
[03:10] <Gibbster> hm... probably not
[03:10] <tech0007> smee: yup
[03:10] <craigbass1976> I'm booted to a livecd on a busted windows box.  Is there ANY way to import the IE bookmarks into the livecd mozilla so that I can then dump them out and restore once I've reinstalled windows?
[03:10] <hydroponic> vilemaxim: Any way around that?
[03:10] <smee> tech0007: can you try right clicking on the file and using extract?
[03:10] <Zoem> rafaelscj I have no gateway, nat, or other device that would use a 192 block address. I have an IP direct from my ISP, with their gateway
[03:11] <vilemaxim> hydroponic: Gibbster: oh sorry... I miss read what he was sasking for.  you are right
[03:11] <tech0007> smee: "Unsupported Method" Sub items Errors: 1
[03:11] <Zoem> holyguyver hmmm... I believe there are setting for the login window appearance *in* the login window... but you would need to login again to check. so, maybe thats a long shot
[03:11] <snmpee> What is the package for galga??
[03:11] <smee> tech0007: and double clicking it opens fileroller?
[03:11] <ColOfNature> okay, so: if i plug in the ide drive which has ubuntu installed, then if i chose my sata drive from the bios boot menu grub loads but returns error 17 if i try to load ubuntu, or err 13 if i choose windows. if, on the other hand, i chose the ide drive with ubuntu installed from the boot menu i don't get grub, i just get "Missing operating system". I've unplugged the ubuntu drive, and win is...
[03:11] <ColOfNature> ...working fine (or as fine as it usually does). Anyone have any ideas?
[03:11] <FF|h0lus> Why ubuntu can't connect to my internet
[03:11] <FF|h0lus> Wifi
[03:11] <tech0007> smee: yup, it shows me the contents of the archive, i cant just extract it
[03:12] <vilemaxim> hydroponic: use chmod -r 0600 /home/username
[03:12] <FF|h0lus> Windows connecting without problems
[03:12] <hydroponic> vilemaxim, Gibbster: OK thanks
[03:12] <xtrxfr> craigbass1976: I don't think you can get the file to the livecd, but if you have an internet connection, you can email and attached those files to yourself.
[03:12] <holyguyver> Zoem I cannot mess with my login settings from within the window for the resalution is so badly off that I cannot see anything when I am in my loginwindow.
[03:12] <vilemaxim> FF|h0lus: ifconfig will tell if you have an ip address
[03:12] <Gibbster> So... any takers on why an ide drive would pretend to be a scsi drive?
[03:13] <ace_suares> Gibbster: i think most sata drives do that
[03:13] <gam3r111> i neeeeed help
[03:13] <gam3r111> rlly bad
[03:13] <holyguyver> Gibbster, maybe for fun, maybe it thin's it is at a masquerade.
[03:13] <craigbass1976> xtrxfr, well, I've got the favorites folder; just have to copy that and hope for the best.  If he was running Ubuntu, this wouldn't have happened.  :P
[03:13] <vilemaxim> FF|h0lus: that needs to be run in a terminal if you are a new
[03:13] <tyler_d1> errors updating ubuntu -- ran dpkg -configure -a and now its frozen at Generating locales - en_AU.UTF-8...
[03:13] <smee> tech0007: one sec
[03:14] <vilemaxim> tyler_d1: frozen?
[03:14] <xtrxfr> there you go :)
[03:14] <thefool> anyone here know much about pulseaudio?
[03:14] <thefool> it is the default in hardy yet I can't actually "use" it as it was meant to be used, I can't figure out how to control individual applications volumes etc. and pavucontrol (the program that does that) seg faults after installing via apt-get
[03:14] <ace_suares> gam3r111: help with what
[03:14] <tyler_d1> vilemaxim: stuck frozen - not processing
[03:14] <Gibbster> ace_suares: it's a pata. holyguyver: but there's no chamber music...
[03:14] <vilemaxim> tyler_d1: kill it and see if you have enough disk space  df -h
[03:14] <FF|h0lus> vilemaxim ye I write to terminal this
[03:14] <ace_suares> Gibbster: maybe your bios emulates pata trough sata ??
[03:14] <FF|h0lus> and what is the next step ? ; p
[03:14] <tyler_d1> vilemaxim: I did and there is
[03:15] <Gibbster> ace_suares: I doubt it... it's a really old system (and bios)
[03:15] <Gibbster> ace_suares:think 2000
[03:15] <gam3r111> i have vista and ubuntu dual booted on a computer and i wasusing bcd in windows to let the vista loader be incharge instead of grub and i cant boot back into ubuntu
[03:15] <tyler_d1> vilemaxim: just prior to this there is a message relating to firefox 3.0 - dependency problems - leaving unconigured
[03:15] <tyler_d1> vilemaxim: unconfigured
[03:15] <ColOfNature> anyone know how to stop grub from running unless i boot to the drive it is installed on?
[03:15] <holyguyver> Gibbster 2000 is not old, until this year I was running on a 1998.
[03:16] <Gibbster> ace_suares: I do have another sata drive using a sata card, but that's for a different set of drives
[03:16] <ace_suares> Gibbster: well then I dont see how an ide drive can become a scsi drive... you mean /dev/sda or something ?
[03:16] <vilemaxim> tyler_d1: hmmm.. the next think I would do is start modifing the post and pre install scripts to see how far they are getting... but I would be afraid to direct you to do that.
[03:16] <ace_suares> gam3r111: i have no clue about MS products, including the boot laoder.
[03:16] <gam3r111> i have vista and ubuntu dual booted on a computer and i wasusing bcd in windows to let the vista loader be incharge instead of grub and i cant boot back into ubuntu
[03:16] <Gibbster> ace_suares: I have three drives: a pata drive sdc, and two sata drives running off a sata card: sda and sdb
[03:16] <tyler_d1> vilemaxim: care to give me a hint as the system is unusable in teh current state
[03:17] <gam3r111> well can someone help me
[03:17] <chh111> i got a critical problem trying to upgrade from 8.04.1 to 8.10,can any one help me?
[03:17] <ace_suares> Gibbster: well if your pata is connected to the normal ide0 , then it should be /dev/hda
[03:17] <Gibbster> ace_suares: the trouble is when I disconnect either of the sata drives, my system doesn't boot
[03:17] <vilemaxim> tyler_d1: but if you are up for the adventure the scripts are in /var/lib/dpkg/info
[03:17] <Gibbster> ace_suares: yeah, that's what I thought
[03:17] <IdleOne> chh111, #ubuntu+1
[03:17] <tyler_d1> vilemaxim: always up for an adventure
[03:17] <ace_suares> Gibbster: it's your bios that does that.
[03:17] <vilemaxim> tyler_d1: I just put echo "here"
[03:17] <gam3r111> i have vista and ubuntu dual booted on a computer and i wasusing bcd in windows to let the vista loader be incharge instead of grub and i cant boot back into ubuntu
[03:17] <gam3r111> i have vista and ubuntu dual booted on a computer and i wasusing bcd in windows to let the vista loader be incharge instead of grub and i cant boot back into ubuntu
[03:17] <gam3r111> i have vista and ubuntu dual booted on a computer and i wasusing bcd in windows to let the vista loader be incharge instead of grub and i cant boot back into ubuntu
[03:17] <FloodBot1> gam3r111: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:17] <Zoem> holyguyver hmmm, I think also the startup manager might have something to help you. its in the Add/Remove Programs
[03:17] <vilemaxim> tyler_d1: you understand bash scripts
[03:17] <smee> tech0007: did you "sudo apt-get install 7zip"  or  "sudo apt-get install 7zip-full"
[03:17] <vilemaxim> ?
[03:18] <yclian> Hi guys, I am upgrading one of my server from Gutsy to Hardy, but it seems that the locale is screwed. Am seeing "perl: warning: Setting locale failed." whenever a package is installed.
[03:18] <gam3r111> i have vista and ubuntu dual booted on a computer and i wasusing bcd in windows to let the vista loader be incharge instead of grub and i cant boot back into ubuntu
[03:18] <ace_suares> Gibbster normally, ide0 goes before the sata drives... and in the bios, in boot order, you must be able to set it
[03:18] <yclian> Thing thing is hanging there btw: Setting up locales (2.7.9-4) ... Generating locales...   en_AU.UTF-8...
[03:18] <tech0007> smee: apt-get install p7zip
[03:18] <tyler_d1> vilemaxim: somewhat
[03:18] <smee> tech0007: also, is the 7zip a multipart?
[03:18] <Gibbster> ace_suares: yeah... that's another thing. I installed on the ide drive, but it wouldn't boot until I set the boot sequence to scsi
[03:18] <troythetechguy_>  System/prefrences/screen resolution states my refresh rate is 76 Hz, but my on screen display for my monitor says it's 60 Hz.  Which one is probably correct?
[03:19] <tech0007> smee: just 1 file, it has an iso inside it
[03:19] <Gibbster> ace_suares: this was before the sata drives were even formatted
[03:19] <uriel_> customizing my user interface
[03:19] <Gibbster> ace_suares: or partitioned, for that matter
[03:19] <chuck> wow why is the kernel downloading at 33kB/s >_>
[03:19] <IdleOne> it seems that my browser has been hi-jacked. I have some porn site comming up on firefox startup. anybody seen this happen lately?
[03:19] <uriel_> i need help with costomixing my user interface
[03:19] <CarlFK> where can I import slugify from so I can use it in a view ?
[03:19] <vilemaxim> tyler_d1: if you messed with them at all you should be able to find the line that it is sticking at.  That might explain what is happening.  Once you find the line you can run it directily and see the error you get.
[03:19] <ace_suares> Gibbster: can't be anything else then your bios. Or maybe the ROM of you sata adapter does this ? Can you disable that rom or set it uo (Ctrl-M ?)
[03:19] <ace_suares> uo up
[03:19] <uriel_> anybody know somthin bout that?
[03:19] <FF|h0lus> vilemaxim plz check the pm ;)
[03:19] <smee> tech0007: to eliminate corrupted archive, download an entirely seperate 7zip file and try using that
[03:19] <tech0007> IdleOne: recreate your firefox profile
[03:19] <CarlFK> whoops, this isn't #django...
[03:20] <vilemaxim> tyler_d1: you might have to manually figure out the vars
[03:20] <ace_suares> uriel_: what do you want to customize..
[03:20] <tech0007> smee: ok will do
[03:20] <smee> tech0007: preferably a 7zip file  not made with the p7zip program
[03:20] <IdleOne> tech0007, my question is more how did this happen ?
[03:20] <Gibbster> CarlFX: your python talk ain't welcome here ;-)
[03:20] <ndo> guys, ive got trouble. when i run virtualbox, my gnome goes broken. system is still working, but i cant use it.. :(
[03:20] <uriel_> i meen like the windows and stuff
[03:20] <uriel_> ive seen other people download them
[03:21] <tech0007> IdleOne: some pages have scripts on them, i have adblock and noscripts extensions
[03:21] <vilemaxim> FF|h0lus: You do not have an IP.  Are you connecting through a wire or wireless?
[03:21] <uriel_> is there a prgram to use these downloads with or a prosses
[03:21] <Sylphid> ndo, how much memory do you have?
[03:21] <Gibbster> ace_suares: I really don't mind that the drive shows up as sdc. my problem is that when I disconnect another sata drive, I can't boot
