[12:00] <bolrod> indeed
[12:00] <pinkmermaid> >.> My mouse keeps freaking out.
[12:00] <bolrod> sh ./call.of.duty
[12:00] <bolrod> with the space
[12:00] <suspect_> and then?
[12:00] <suspect_> i know
[12:00] <bolrod> enter
[12:00] <suspect_> press enter?
[12:00] <mwe> heh
[12:00] <ompaul> suspect_, if you know your trolling
[12:00] <pinkmermaid> Like, I'll be going about my business and it'll just go all crazy and uncontrolled, like an out of control teenager on Jerry Springer >.>
[12:00] <patrick52222> bolrod:the one from synaptic does show the proper card i have but the nvidia site one does i have had it befor
[12:00] <suspect_> trolling?
[12:01] <bolrod> what does it say when you press enter
[12:01] <dli> what
[12:01] <dli> what
[12:01] <suspect_> sh ./call<TAB>
[12:01] <wfx> hi
[12:01] <bolrod> you hit the tab key?
[12:01] <suspect_> yes
[12:01] <mwe> rofl
[12:01] <suspect_> i hit it twice
[12:01] <bolrod> or you write <TAB>
[12:01] <dli> what's the website to generate sources.list entries auto?
[12:01] <bolrod> ?
[12:01] <suspect_> and i sai the file name
[12:01] <hollowman8904> how can i mount a network share as a local drive?
[12:01] <suspect_> noth of them
[12:01] <suspect_> now what i do?
[12:01] <bolrod> then you have 2 files that have the same beginning of the name
[12:01] <_jason> ubotu: tell dli about easysource
[12:01] <suspect_> how do i run it?
[12:01] <hollowman8904> i cant seem to open files properly when the computer thinks its over the network.
[12:01] <bolrod> then chose one of the files you see when you hit tab twice
[12:01] <suspect_> and install it?
[12:01] <gimmulf_> i cant find SKype in respitorys
[12:01] <bolrod> just write out the full name
[12:02] <_jason> ubotu: tell gimmulf_ about skype
[12:02] <bolrod> sh ./call.of.duty.run
[12:02] <bolrod> or whatever the name is called
[12:02] <wfx> on brezzy i found tons of ...anon log[decaps_gre:pptp_gre.c:395] : disca... ~20 in a sec in my syslog
[12:02] <suspect_> no such file of directory
[12:02] <bolrod> ls *call*
[12:02] <bolrod> what does that say?
[12:02] <suspect_> ok i press tab 3 times
[12:02] <gimmulf_> _jason:  none of the mirrors works
[12:02] <patrick52222> i having problems with ubuntu as it says i can't make as i have gcc4.0 when it needs gcc3.4(nvidia prob)
[12:02] <ompaul> suspect_, do the following >>pwd<< and give the result of that and then do this >>ls -al call*<< and tell me exactly what you see
[12:02] <suspect_> and i saw the file names
[12:02] <suspect_> it didnt do shit
[12:02] <_jason> gimmulf_: for seveas?
[12:02] <ompaul> suspect_, no language
[12:03] <ompaul> suspect_, no bad language to be more exact
[12:03] <wfx> how can i reduce the loglevel for pptp/ppp
[12:03] <suspect_> ok sorry
[12:03] <suspect_> when i typed pwd
[12:03] <suspect_> i saw /home/suspect/desktop
[12:03] <bolrod> good
[12:03] <suspect_> now what next?
[12:03] <ompaul> suspect_, you did not see that
[12:03] <suspect_> yes i did
[12:03] <gimmulf_> _jason:  added it, still wont find skype
[12:03] <chavo> patrick52222, install gcc3.4
[12:04] <bolrod>  /home/suspect/Desktop ?
[12:04] <suspect_> yes
[12:04] <_jason> gimmulf_: did you apt-get update?
[12:04] <bolrod> ok
[12:04] <suspect_> what now?
[12:04] <bolrod> what do you see when you type   ls *call*
[12:04] <patrick52222> i cant as i have the bew version gcc4.0
[12:04] <ompaul> suspect_, there is a huge difference between D and d
[12:04] <suspect_> with the star?
[12:04] <bolrod> yep
[12:04] <TTT_Travis> how do I install lame?
[12:04] <dli> _jason, thanks
[12:04] <suspect_> what i do now?
[12:04] <bolrod> what did it show
[12:04] <TTT_Travis> nevermind
[12:04] <TTT_Travis> got it
[12:04] <suspect_> with lower case d
[12:05] <suspect_> /home/suspect/desktop
[12:05] <gimmulf_> _jason:  doesnt it update after adding new respirotys
[12:05] <bolrod> ls *call*   << copy paste that into your terminal
[12:05] <bolrod> and hit enter
[12:05] <chavo> you can install both, 4.0 will be the default. to use 3.4 you just do -> export CC=/usr/bin/gcc-3.4 , before running the nvidia installer
[12:05] <hollowman8904> can someone help me mount a network share as a local drive?
[12:05] <bolrod> suspect_: and tell me what it output
[12:05] <_jason> gimmulf_: after you edit sources.list you need to run 'sudo apt-get update'
[12:05] <suspect_> this is what i saw when i typed is w/e
[12:05] <suspect_> call.of.duty_1.5-english.run  call.of.duty.united.offensive_1.51-english.run
[12:05] <bolrod> good!
[12:06] <suspect_> now what?
[12:06] <bolrod> when you hit tab .. it doesn't know which file to complete
[12:06] <bolrod> so you have to give clues
[12:06] <gimmulf_> _jason:  i use synaptic packet manager, and i have updated it
[12:06] <bolrod> but now you can do
[12:06] <_jason> gimmulf_: did you press reload?
[12:06] <bolrod> so.. which file you want to run anyway?
[12:06] <bolrod> the united.offensive ?
[12:06] <gimmulf_> _jason:  yes :)
[12:06] <bolrod> or the other one
[12:06] <suspect_> no first one
[12:06] <suspect_> the normal cod
[12:06] <_jason> gimmulf_: which mirror did you use?
[12:06] <mwe> suspect_: is it spelled like that, all lower case?
[12:07] <bolrod> sh ./call.of.duty_1.5-english.run
[12:07] <bolrod> that should work
[12:07] <suspect_> yeah
[12:07] <bolrod> if it doesn't
[12:07] <bolrod> read manual
[12:07] <bolrod> or give the error
[12:07] <_jason> most likely he'll need sudo
[12:07] <suspect_> werifying archive
[12:07] <mwe> good
[12:07] <gimmulf_> _jason:  deb [WWW]  http://free.linux.hp.com/~brett/seveas/freenx breezy-seveas freenx
[12:07] <suspect_> /home/suspect/.setup9067: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[12:08] <bolrod> ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[12:08] <_jason> gimmulf_: why did you use the ``freenx'' section if you want skype?
[12:08] <chavo> needs gtk 1.2
[12:08] <Seveas> gimmulf_, where did that [WWW]  come from?
[12:08] <bolrod> now you type the exact same thing
[12:08] <bolrod> but with sudo in front
[12:08] <suspect_> what?
[12:08] <suspect_> what exact same thing?
[12:08] <bolrod> so  ->              sudo  sh ./call..etc
[12:08] <warpzone> hey guys, quick question because I can't seem to find it online
[12:08] <gimmulf_> Seveas:  _jason  hmm :)
[12:08] <warpzone> once ive installed ssh, how do I get it to run at boot
[12:08] <gimmulf_> Seveas:  good question
[12:08] <chavo> he'll have to install gtk 1.2 first, it's an old graphical installer built with gtk 1.2
[12:08] <mwe> warpzone: it will by default I think
[12:09] <HymnToLife> warpzone> it runs at boot, you don't need to do anything
[12:09] <suspect_> /home/suspect/.setup9171: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[12:09] <suspect_> same thing happened
[12:09] <bolrod> urh
[12:09] <warpzone> ooo nvm then, thanks!
[12:10] <bolrod> where did you get this .run file from?
[12:10] <suspect_> loki
[12:10] <bolrod> well
[12:10] <_jason> suspect_: sudo aptitude install libgtk1.2
[12:10] <taigeR> what's the default root password?
[12:10] <_jason> ubotu: tell taigeR about root
[12:10] <suspect_> jason i have to type the exact thing?
[12:10] <_jason> suspect_: yes
[12:11] <suspect_> Reading package lists... Done
[12:11] <suspect_> Building dependency tree... Done
[12:11] <suspect_> Reading extended state information
[12:11] <suspect_> Initializing package states... Done
[12:11] <suspect_> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[12:11] <_jason> suspect_: do what it says and don't paste here, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[12:11] <bolrod> do what it sais
[12:11] <suspect_> ok thank you
[12:12] <warpzone> what about for GPM? I know that wasn't preinstalled. how would I add that to boot?
[12:12] <suspect_> what do i do in this?
[12:12] <suspect_> i see text boxes
[12:12] <bolrod> nvm
[12:12] <_jason> suspect_: can you be more vague?
[12:12] <bolrod> do sudo  dpkg --configure -a
[12:12] <bolrod> do ->              sudo dpkg --configure -a
[12:12] <suspect_> i dont see no intructions
[12:13] <tonyyarusso> warpzone: I thought the installation of gpm added itself?
[12:13] <Bambino> may i please ask.. why isnt my ssh working? I have it installed and when i type /etc/init.d/ssh start   it failes to start!
[12:13] <_jason> Bambino: sudo?
[12:13] <erUSUL> Bambino, any error msg
[12:13] <erUSUL> ?
[12:13] <bolrod> Bambino: /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[12:13] <Bambino>  * Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server...                               [fail]
[12:13] <bolrod> ;o
[12:13] <Bambino> even with sudo , same error
[12:13] <suspect_> its doing something
[12:14] <ompaul> suspect_, okay that thing where you put several lines in the irc client at once - don't do it, it is something you can get banned for - no debate use paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[12:14] <taigeR> how can i do a search on my whole system?
[12:14] <erUSUL> Bambino, check the logs
[12:14] <suspect_> i see en_US.UTF-8
[12:14] <erUSUL> Bambino, check the logs in /var/log/
[12:14] <Bambino> erUSUL, how do i check my log? ;)
[12:14] <_jason> taigeR: find /
[12:14] <suspect_> sorry thats spamming right?
[12:14] <warpzone> tonyyarusso: I'm not sure, i'll have to restart to check
[12:14] <mmmiiikkkeee> hello... i have an ATI 9600 graphics card.. and am haveing trouble getting it installed
[12:14] <polpak> taigeR, or locate
[12:14] <bolrod> suspect_: just wait till it finishes
[12:14] <suspect_> ok
[12:14] <suspect_> what does that do though?
[12:14] <mmmiiikkkeee> i was usig th directions from: https://wiki.ubuntulinux.org/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[12:14] <SuperK> hi
[12:14] <bolrod> but I guess this might be hard to install
[12:14] <polpak> taigeR, depeding on how new the file you're looking for is
[12:14] <Bambino> erUSUL, there are loads of logs starting with ssh. which one?
[12:14] <bolrod> you might want to search a tutorial to install call of duty
[12:14] <bolrod> or a howto
[12:15] <bolrod> and read through it
[12:15] <suspect_> i tried that
[12:15] <SuperK> hey quick question for someone
[12:15] <carthik> suspect_, what does what do? please state your question on one line if you want a decent chance of getting answers
[12:15] <polpak> mmmiiikkkeee, and what's the problem?
[12:15] <suspect_> the command ya gave me
[12:15] <suspect_> sudo  dpkg --configure -a
[12:15] <mmmiiikkkeee> the second part... but its not working it stilll says its useig Mesa
[12:15] <polpak> !tell suspect_ about enter
[12:15] <carthik> suspect_, the command who gae you?
[12:15] <erUSUL> Bambino, the most recent ?
[12:15] <suspect_> someone gave me that command
[12:15] <carthik> suspect_ please read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FaqOnIrc like the message you got when you first joined said
[12:15] <bolrod> carthik: aptitude returned an error
[12:15] <SuperK> I'm showing 85% memory load at idle, is that normal??
[12:15] <bolrod> and told to do that
[12:16] <bolrod> SuperK: yes
[12:16] <suspect_> ok the command installation w/e finished
[12:16] <Bambino> erUSUL, ssh          ssh-agent    ssh-askpass  sshd         ssh-keyscan
[12:16] <Fir> instruction Google Adsense-->  http://planet.nana.co.il/hartk2003/en.htm                 Download free Firefox -->  http://planet.nana.co.il/hartk2003/Firefox.htm
[12:16] <Bambino> ssh-add      ssh-argv0    ssh-copy-id  ssh-keygen
[12:16] <polpak> SuperK, it's cache
[12:16] <Fir> instruction Google Adsense-->  http://planet.nana.co.il/hartk2003/en.htm                 Download free Firefox -->  http://planet.nana.co.il/hartk2003/Firefox.htm
[12:16] <suspect_> the thing finshed
[12:16] <mwe> suspect_: that's good. it's probably all cached
[12:16] <suspect_> ok what now?
[12:16] <mwe> SuperK: that's good. it's probably all cached
[12:16] <SuperK> thanks, thouhgt my system was fubar
[12:16] <erUSUL> Bambino, check the ssh one
[12:16] <polpak> SuperK, nope. You want the OS to be using your memory
[12:16] <polpak> SuperK, otherwise why have it =)
[12:16] <suspect_> ?
[12:16] <bolrod> erUSUL: doesn't ssh dump in the syslog?
[12:16] <mwe> SuperK: high memory usage is good when it's because of caching
[12:16] <SuperK> so 20% CPU load at idle is about right as well??
[12:17] <TTT_Travis> what would I need todo to get ubuntu to detect a rockwell based voice and fax modem?
[12:17] <sopowae> hi all
[12:17] <bolrod> SuperK: check with   'top'  to see whats on top
[12:17] <bolrod> and what is using the cpu
[12:17] <polpak> SuperK, no.. what do you mean by idle
[12:17] <suspect_> ok what do i do from there?
[12:17] <SuperK> just siting at desktop
[12:17] <suspect_> from what i have just done?
[12:17] <bolrod> SuperK: maybe updatedb is running or something ?
[12:17] <erUSUL> Bambino, check in /var/log/messages too as bolrod pointed out
[12:17] <carthik> SuperK, if you leave your ssytem on, the memory usage climbs that is normal
[12:17] <mwe> SuperK: mine says 4%
[12:17] <polpak> SuperK, having a lot of memory using cache is fine, running at 20% cpu utilization when your computer's not doing anything is a problem
[12:17] <mmmiiikkkeee> is there a way to remove the drivers and start over?
[12:18] <SuperK> I do have 3 superkaramba apps running is that it?
[12:18] <carthik> SuperK, read http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/07/memory-swap-management/ for info
[12:18] <bolrod> Bambino: syslog
[12:18] <mwe> SuperK: maybe
[12:18] <bolrod> Bambino: tail /var/log/syslog
[12:18] <suspect_> bolrod
[12:18] <bolrod> ?
[12:18] <suspect_> what do i do now?
[12:18] <carthik> SuperK, use top to see what is using the resources.
[12:18] <mwe> SuperK: try closing it and see what it says or use top to identify what using the cpu
[12:19] <defendguin> is mario danic around?
[12:19] <SuperK> I'm kinda new to linux, what is 'top'??
[12:19] <Seveas> defendguin, look for pygi
[12:19] <defendguin> thanks
[12:19] <bolrod> suspect_: 'sudo apt-get install libgtk1.2'
[12:19] <bolrod> if that doesn't work
[12:19] <bolrod> then I really don't know
[12:19] <suspect_> i did that
[12:19] <suspect_> and it finished
[12:19] <Bambino> bolrod, ok thanks. basically all has the same line. or all do . .. Apr 13 23:18:34 localhost kernel: [ 4336.094229]  r8169: eth0: PHY reset until link up
[12:19] <carthik> SuperK, open a terminal and type top and then Enter. it is a "table of processes" if I am not wrong
[12:19] <suspect_> so what do i do now?
[12:19] <bolrod> without error?
[12:19] <suspect_> no
[12:19] <chavo> SuperK, I've noticed some high cpu usage from karamba applets also esp, liquid weather
[12:20] <mwe> SuperK: a command. type it in a terminal
[12:20] <bolrod> it returned an error?
[12:20] <mwe> SuperK: it show process inforamation
[12:20] <suspect_> no
[12:20] <mwe> shows*
[12:20] <bolrod> ok
[12:20] <bolrod> then type
[12:20] <bolrod> sudo  sh ./call.of.duty  (rest of name)
[12:20] <bolrod> again
[12:20] <Bambino> erUSUL, Apr 13 23:18:34 localhost kernel: [ 4336.094229]  r8169: eth0: PHY reset until link up
[12:20] <mmmiiikkkeee> when i : glxinfo | grep -i opengl..... it says i am using the mesa drivers
[12:20] <suspect_> wait you tiold me to do this first?
[12:20] <mmmiiikkkeee> not the ati ones :(
[12:20] <suspect_> sudo  dpkg --configure -a
[12:20] <ompaul> suspect_, if it is more than one line of error use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org for it thank you
[12:20] <SuperK> superkaramba is second on the list so that must be it yes?
[12:21] <bolrod> suspect_: indeed.. and that finished right?
[12:21] <suspect_> yes
[12:21] <taner_c> hallo
[12:21] <SuperK> and I am using liquid weather too
[12:21] <chavo> SuperK, yes it's probably it
[12:21] <bolrod> so.. you did    'sudo  apt-get install libgtk1.2'
[12:21] <bolrod> as well?
[12:21] <mwe> SuperK: what does it say in %CPU ?
[12:21] <SuperK> ok, thank you very much
[12:21] <erUSUL> Bambino, that is an error of network card it should not affect ssh
[12:21] <suspect_> no ima do it now
[12:21] <Tremii> hi
[12:21] <defendguin> i seem to be having issues with network manager in flight 6
[12:21] <chavo> there's a new version of liquid weather out that works much better
[12:22] <defendguin> ive seen my problems in launchpad but their solution doesnt work for me
[12:22] <carthik> defendguin, what sort of problms?
[12:22] <suspect_> its unpacking things
[12:22] <Tremii> is there something like umsdos in ubuntu breezy? (i want u*ix permissions on top of vat)
[12:22] <suspect_> and its done
[12:22] <SuperK> 2.3 and then root says 3.7
[12:22] <suspect_> now type what
[12:22] <Bambino> erUSUL, so whats the solution
[12:22] <_-ZeroCool-_> hola
[12:22] <_-ZeroCool-_> alguien que hable espaol?
[12:22] <Seveas> !es
[12:22] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[12:22] <defendguin> carthik: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/37128
[12:22] <mwe> SuperK: root? the right most column is the process name
[12:23] <erUSUL> Bambino, i can not know for sure sorry
[12:23] <bolrod> dang why do so many people join/leave !?!
[12:23] <SuperK> xorg
[12:23] <MrKubuntuUser> would anybody here know of any Linux telnet clients (besides the included "telnet" program)?
[12:23] <mmmiiikkkeee> when i : glxinfo | grep -i opengl..... it says i am using the mesa drivers not the ATI ones
[12:23] <suspect_> call of duty setup came up
[12:23] <chavo> superkaramba is porbably making the xorg cpu usage go up also
[12:23] <suspect_> YESSSS
[12:23] <bolrod> Seveas: you're not helping it with changing op status all the time ;)
[12:23] <suspect_> thank you very much
[12:23] <bolrod> suspect_: good
[12:23] <bolrod> :)
[12:23] <mwe> bolrod: at least in irssi you can configure it to ignore joins/parts
[12:23] <bolrod> mwe: I don't
[12:23] <InnerFIRE> anyone know the repository for gmplayer?
[12:23] <bolrod> since its usefull sometimes
[12:23] <bolrod> ;/
[12:23] <suspect_> now i have to mount a cd
[12:24] <tparkhill> Hollowman8904, try here for share mounting help: http://ubit.buffalo.edu/linux/ublinux4/samba.php
[12:24] <bolrod> oooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[12:24] <suspect_> i ahve the real cd though
[12:24] <suspect_> have*
[12:24] <defendguin> carthik: i have cleaned out my interfaces file but this doesnt seem to have any effect on the issue
[12:24] <tparkhill> I'm reading it, too, so I've no answers but what is there...
[12:24] <_jason> InnerFIRE: multiverse
[12:24] <mwe> bolrod: yeah it's trade off. I'd go crazy in here without it though
[12:24] <bolrod> then put that in
[12:24] <carthik> defendguin, couple of things, maybe it is "truly broken" second -- you need to not have the interfaces eth0 eth1 etc defined in /etc/network/interfaces
[12:24] <_jason> ubotu: tell InnerFIRE about mplayer
[12:24] <suspect_> the real cd?
[12:24] <bolrod> yeah
[12:24] <suspect_> ok
[12:24] <SuperK> I also show nothing in swap file, do I need to set that up similar to windows??
[12:24] <mmmiiikkkeee> when i : glxinfo | grep -i opengl..... it says i am using the mesa drivers not the ATI ones
[12:24] <wfx> MrKubuntuUser, do you mean something like this: http://www.slicer.ca/coldfire ?
[12:25] <mwe> SuperK: what does swapon -s say?
[12:25] <defendguin> carthik: on my other flight 6 computer they are all defined in interfaces and it works
[12:25] <angom_h> Hi, I just finished installing ubuntu, but no where in the installation it asked for the root password, is there a default one ?
[12:25] <bolrod> sudo
[12:25] <bolrod> is for root rights
[12:25] <bolrod> there is no root in ubuntu standard
[12:25] <sublime> how can i call the cdmon script from cron
[12:26] <mwe> SuperK: it shouldn't resort to using swap unless memory is getting really full (not counting the cache)
[12:26] <bolrod> angom_h: if you run something that requires a password
[12:26] <carthik> defendguin, could you please produce some debug output and add it to the bug report you mentioned. Somethings probably need ironing out
[12:26] <_jason> angom_h, bolrod: there is root but it is locked
[12:26] <bolrod> use your normal password
[12:26] <_jason> ubotu: tell angom_h about sudo
[12:26] <sublime> it's ok "sh ./cdmon"  ?
[12:26] <bolrod> _jason: don't make it more difficult then it has to be
[12:26] <bolrod> :]
[12:26] <SuperK> ok, thanks
[12:26] <defendguin> carthik: exactly what information would you like me to add to the report?
[12:26] <carthik> defendguin, I would really appreciate it if you could write up what all you tried :) I know that is a tough ask, maybe, but thatnks for the help
[12:27] <SuperK> time to get ready for work, thanks all
[12:27] <defendguin> i am more than happy to help
[12:27] <mmmiiikkkeee> when i : glxinfo | grep -i opengl..... it says i am using the mesa drivers not the ATI ones
[12:27] <mmmiiikkkeee> what shoud i do?
[12:27] <wfx> or realy a thinks like qterm
[12:27] <mmmiiikkkeee> i followed the directions on the wiki..
[12:27] <suspect_> yes its working
[12:27] <bolrod> suspect_: cool
[12:27] <suspect_> hey what about aim?
[12:27] <mwe> mmmiiikkkeee: glxinfo|grep direct is an easy way to see if direct rendering is working
[12:28] <suspect_> how do i install that?
[12:28] <suspect_> the same command?
[12:28] <bolrod> erh
[12:28] <suspect_> just wanted the normal aim
[12:28] <bolrod> open the applications > add programs
[12:28] <carthik> defendguin, if it crashes, then a backtrace, else, the syslog when you try to run it. Run the app from the cmmoand line, and paste the output of that. If something else is required, the person who's assigned the bug will ask you for it.
[12:28] <suspect_> i dont like gaim
[12:28] <bolrod> if aim has a file that will run on linux
[12:28] <suspect_> add applications?
[12:28] <bolrod> erh
[12:28] <bolrod> add/remove
[12:28] <wfx> MrKubuntuUser, sorry i think this is what you search qterm (bbs and ssh)
[12:29] <mmmiiikkkeee> it said no
[12:29] <AngryElf> i have a stupid question....where is the Remote Desktop client located?
[12:29] <bolrod> but if aim has a linux installation file
[12:29] <bolrod> you can run it with  sh ./aim.run
[12:29] <bolrod> or something
[12:29] <bolrod> whatever the file is called
[12:29] <mmmiiikkkeee> and :OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[12:29] <angom_h> thx
[12:29] <bolrod> and to install it you probably have to do    sudo  sh ./aim.run
[12:29] <MrKubuntuUser> wfx:  I need a telnet client that does VT102 emulation and can print from the server to my local printer
[12:29] <mmmiiikkkeee> how do i get the ati drivers to work?
[12:29] <mwe> !ati
[12:29] <ubotu> methinks ati is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI or http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=24557&page=1&pp=10 or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=423589
[12:29] <MrKubuntuUser> wfx:  NetTerm used to be able to do that on Windows
[12:29] <suspect_> ok thank you
[12:29] <bolrod> otherwise.. aim probably has a good howto on their site
[12:30] <carthik> defendguin, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash might be helpful
[12:31] <suspect_> thank you bolrod
[12:31] <wfx> MrKubuntuUser, with print from the server to local -> like hardcopy (screenshot)?
[12:32] <suspect_> wait the installation has 2 cds
[12:32] <suspect_> i cant open the cd drive when it says to
[12:32] <bliss1_> hello
[12:33] <MrKubuntuUser> wfx:  No, not a screenshot... I'm using INNOPAC (a library circ thing) over Telnet and it can print records to a local printer.  It uses some kind of VT102 printer escape codes to do it
[12:33] <fiendskull9> quick help
[12:33] <fiendskull9> whats the chmod number to give just read to all groups?
[12:33] <MrKubuntuUser> wfx:  VT102 Printer Control
[12:33] <carthik> fiendskull9, chmod a+r foo
[12:34] <MrKubuntuUser> wfx:  http://innovativeusers.org/faqs/print/definitions.html - "Attached" Printer
[12:34] <mwe> fiendskull9: you mean all users. you can only limit one group
[12:34] <fiendskull9> carthik, have foo in there? or was that a silly comment?
[12:34] <carthik> fiendskull9, foo is my favorite filename, substitute the filename there :)
[12:34] <fiendskull9> mwe, im trying to make my windows partition readable to all
[12:34] <toxic_> [sed help]  is there a way to only return data matching pattern rather than deleting data matching pattern ? (ie this deletes data: sed -e 's/[0-9] //g' while I want to return only the numbers)
[12:34] <mwe> fiendskull9: you can't with chmod
[12:34] <mwe> fiendskull9: you need to mount it differently
[12:34] <HymnToLife> !tell fiendskull9 about ntfs
[12:35] <carthik> fiendskull9, ah! that is differnt problem all together...
[12:36] <bliss1_> nickrud: hi I noticed that my box will not reboot since diabling USB legacy in BIOS diabled because i have a pertition with kernal 2.6 and another with the same kernel so I was told to diable so keybord would work
[12:37] <bliss1_> carthik: hi
[12:37] <carthik> yes bliss1_
[12:37] <bliss1_> carthik: take a look at post just now to nickrud please
[12:38] <carthik> bliss1_, sorry but I don't really understand the problem
[12:38] <bliss1_> carthik: ok
[12:39] <taigeR> when i type make: I get the following error message:
[12:39] <taigeR> tar xzvf foo2zjs.tar.gz
[12:39] <taigeR> cc -O2 -Wall   -c -o foo2zjs.o foo2zjs.c
[12:39] <taigeR> make: cc: Command not found
[12:39] <taigeR> make: *** [foo2zjs.o]  Error 127
[12:39] <carthik> !tell taigeR about paste
[12:39] <carthik> taiger, $sudo apt-get install build-essential
[12:39] <_jason> taigeR: you need to install build-essential
[12:40] <bliss1_> carthik: see you later I have this question three times already
[12:40] <wfx> MrKubuntuUser,  sounds like do on terminal ls and the output would be print
[12:40] <taigeR> thanks
[12:40] <diana> hi, does anyone nkow how to detect blutooth devices?
[12:41] <carthik> bliss1_, care to explain the question, I dont see whta you mean by saying you have two kernels. State your problem in a different way perhaps?
[12:41] <_jason> toxic_: use sed -n and use the 'p' command to print, so for example: sed -n '/cool/p' will print lines with cool in it
[12:42] <amphi> diana: hcitool might be what you want
[12:42] <decco> hi
[12:42] <diana> thanks amphi
[12:42] <me2win> anyone got a linksys wpc54g?
[12:42] <meloch> Hello ubuntu channel! I have a quick mysql question.
[12:42] <diana> is an aplication?
[12:42] <toxic_> _jason, yeah, but I have a log file containing text, ip, numbers. I want to extract the ip, and it's not very nice to first remove a-z. A-Z until I only have the ip left.
[12:43] <mwe> meloch: access point?
[12:43] <carthik> diana https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BluetoothSetup
[12:43] <dnbshawn> yo
[12:43] <dnbshawn> whats ubuntu
[12:43] <diana> thanks
[12:43] <dnbshawn> ?
[12:43] <carthik> dnbshawn, read the channel message please
[12:43] <meloch> If I want to edit entries in a mysql database with a nice user interface - what are my options?
[12:43] <amphi> diana: there's probably a bluetooth howto at tldp.org
[12:43] <mwe> meloch: phpmysql is one
[12:43] <_jason> toxic_: you want a command that will extract all of the ip numbers from that log file?
[12:43] <brasko> sorry, I'm sure this question is asked all the time.
[12:44] <brasko> How do I install mplayer on ubuntu?
[12:44] <meloch> mwe: okay. any good? i'll try it out then
[12:44] <shredder_> Bunqueeda Sha na na Sobequan Ubuntu
[12:44] <amphi> toxic_: awk?
[12:44] <_jason> ubotu: tell brasko about mplayer
[12:44] <mwe> meloch: it rocks
[12:44] <dnbshawn> it says its the offical ubuntu support channel
[12:44] <mwe> meloch: you need to configure apache and php to use it though
[12:44] <carthik> dnbshawn, and thre are urls, http://ubuntu.com explains it all best
[12:44] <bur[n] er> anyone know how to change the sound card that flash audio comes out of?
[12:44] <dnbshawn> i dont see anywhere in the topic where it says "dont ask questions"
[12:44] <dnbshawn> no
[12:44] <toxic_> _jason, there is one ip number / line or / file if you wish, I need to extract that ip ...
[12:44] <diana> it helpeed
[12:44] <dnbshawn> ubuntu.com doesnt explain it well enough
[12:44] <_jason> !ubuntu
[12:44] <ubotu> somebody said ubuntu was a free GNU/Linux distribution. More at http://www.ubuntu.com and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarkShuttleworth
[12:44] <meloch> mwe: sweet! thanks.
[12:44] <dnbshawn> thats why i came here
[12:45] <toxic_> amphi, awk is certianly nice, but I'm not too familiar with it
[12:45] <dnbshawn> nevermind
[12:45] <dnbshawn> >:(
[12:45] <carthik> dnbshawn, if you have specific questions, we can be of greater help
[12:45] <Bambino> where do i change my screen resolution?
[12:45] <toxic_> _jason, so instead of matching letters and then using 'd' command to remove them until only numbers are left, there must be a way to remove everything but the pattern I'm matching against.
[12:45] <amphi> toxic_: how are the fields in a line delimited?
[12:45] <bliss1_> cartick: I instaled another debian distro on hda2 , ubuntu and other debian ditro both have kernel 2.6 now I could not use my laptop keyboard in other during install so I was told just by chance to diable usb legacy in my BIOS and it worked i was able to install other distro because I diabled usb legacy in BIOS. now sine that time I can shutdown BUT labtop will not reboot
[12:45] <carthik> Bambino, system->prefs->screen resolution
[12:45] <_jason> toxic_: use grep
[12:45] <_jason> toxic_: grep -o to be more specific
[12:46] <dnbshawn> ok, im asking what ubuntu linux is more toward a technical standpoint. how does it improve on debian?
[12:46] <mwe> Bambino: you possibly have to edit xorg.conf as well
[12:46] <Bambino> k thanks
[12:46] <toxic_> _jason, grep only returns the entire line, and grep-o only returns the characters I've already specified. grep -o * matches "*hi" but not "hi"
[12:46] <amphi> dnbshawn: 'improve' is in the eye of the beholder
[12:46] <dnbshawn> the website just tells me that "people" brought ubuntu together
[12:46] <dnbshawn> yeah
[12:46] <mwe> dnbshawn: it makes it easier to install and manage
[12:46] <toxic_> amphi, text ip port text random number
[12:46] <_jason> toxic_: grep uses regex
[12:46] <dnbshawn> so its like mandrake is to redhat?
[12:47] <carthik> bliss1_, but can you start normally from power-down?
[12:47] <mwe> dnbshawn: um I don't think so
[12:47] <toxic_> _jason, hmm ok
[12:47] <_jason> toxic_: for example to match 3 numbers . 3 numbers . 3 numbers: egrep -o '[0-9] {3}.[0-9] {3}.[0-9] {3}'
[12:47] <Hamman> dnbshawn: ubuntu is easier to get started with, as you get a preconfigured gnome desktop and graphical administration utilities out of the box. You also get a predictable release schedule
[12:47] <_jason> toxic_: oops, all those .'s should be \.
[12:48] <toxic_> _jason, neat
[12:48] <toxic_> _jason, I'll give that a try :)
[12:48] <dnbshawn> ok
[12:48] <suspect_> ok i have another insy winsy problem
[12:48] <dnbshawn> so its just a well packaged debian
[12:48] <Hamman> dnbshawn: also, you get much more recent versions of software compared to debian stable(without the risk of breakage you have with testing)
[12:48] <suspect_> while i install call of duty
[12:48] <Hamman> dnbshawn: yeah, pretty much
[12:49] <suspect_> i have to insert the second cd
[12:49] <suspect_> but the cd drive wont open
[12:49] <suspect_> what do i do?
[12:49] <dnbshawn> sounds good to me
[12:49] <Hamman> also, I don't think Ubuntu is quite as anal as debian about licensing issues(as we have a multiverse repository)
[12:49] <dnbshawn> *downloads*
[12:49] <mwe> dnbshawn: somone told me ubuntu is african for I can't install debian
[12:49] <dnbshawn> im looking to install either ubunto or gentoo on my lappy
[12:49] <mynamesbob> does anyone here use fluxbox?
[12:49] <HymnToLife> suspect_> sudo eject /cdrom
[12:50] <suspect_> oh ok
[12:50] <amphi> mynamesbob: I have done - I use openbox ATM
[12:50] <dnbshawn> well i cant install debeian
[12:50] <dnbshawn> lol
[12:50] <bliss1_> cartick: if I do shutdown -r now the computer starts to shut down says on screen rebooting but it does not screen goes blank and power switch on computer does not work have to pull out mains at back of labtop and put back in again then the compter goes off then power switch on laptop works
[12:50] <carthik> dnbshawn, http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship explains debian<->ubuntu
[12:50] <mynamesbob> amphi: my sound is not working
[12:50] <amphi> mynamesbob: what does that have to do with the window manager?
[12:50] <suspect_> oh and i need wine(x)/cedega
[12:51] <mynamesbob> amphi: i am using oss through jack and nothing works with fluxbox, says no device but when i use gnome everything works just fine
[12:51] <suspect_> to be able to play cod
[12:51] <suspect_> where do i get that?
[12:51] <carthik> bliss1_, I'm sorry, but I can only guess it is some sort of BIOS problem (to the best of my knowledge, which is limited)
[12:51] <lampshade> Where does win install things after I have installed them using wine?  (I know this sounds dumb)  I installed picassa and I'm curious where wine put the picassa2.exe, etc files on my computer
[12:51] <JrbM689> I must say, this installation is a breeze
[12:51] <_jason> ubotu: tell mynamesbob about anyone
[12:51] <JrbM689> I hope I don't have too much trouble with Wine
[12:51] <amphi> mynamesbob: perhaps it's configured to use esd? (guessing, I don't use gnome or jack)
[12:51] <toxic_> _jason, {*} does that match 0 to any number of chars, or is it interpreted differently ?
[12:51] <toxic_> _jason, since an IP isn't necessarily 3 digits / dot
[12:52] <bliss1_> cartick: ok thanks
[12:52] <Hamman> suspect_: I think there's a switch you can launch cedega with, something like --monitor-cd, check the man pages
[12:52] <shredder_> ubotu: Will I die broke and unpopular?
[12:52] <suspect_> can i just go to the web or something and download it?
[12:53] <Hamman> suspect_: what? cedega?
[12:53] <mwe_> My internet connection randomly dies and I have to ifdown wlan0 && ifup wlan0 to fix it. I can't spot anything in the logs. how would I go about debugging that?
[12:53] <suspect_> yeah
[12:53] <suspect_> i seriously need that
[12:53] <suspect_> can one of ya send me a link to the page?
[12:54] <Hamman> suspect_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Cedega?highlight=%28cedega%29
[12:54] <suspect_> oh and i still dont know what to do with aim
[12:54] <bliss1_> catick: could try enabling it again?
[12:54] <Hamman> or you can pay a fee each month to the transgaiming people
[12:54] <suspect_> how do i install aim?
[12:54] <suspect_> with the tgz file?
[12:54] <amphi> toxic_: {1,3} would do I think
[12:55] <lampshade> suspect_, you can just use Gaim for your aim client.  Much better than aim anyway unless I"m missing something
[12:55] <suspect_> no
[12:55] <amphi> mwe_: what card?
[12:55] <suspect_> i need it becuz i need to transfer pics and such
[12:55] <suspect_> wtd?
[12:55] <mwe> amphi: atheros wifi
[12:55] <Hamman> yeah, wtf happened?
[12:55] <suspect_> ?
[12:55] <me2win> w00t

[12:56] <shredder_> My bad
[12:56] <xanavim> no need to cry over split milk
[12:56] <amphi> mwe: oh, dunno - ipw2200 does that sometimes due to probs with the fw
[12:56] <suspect_> but cant ya just tell me how to install aim please?
[12:56] <suspect_> just that
[12:57] <shredder_> Mass wiretapping
[12:57] <harisund> Hello.. how's everyone doing today ?
[12:57] <obnibolongo> harisund: bored
[12:57] <shredder_> Server needs a cooler
[12:57] <harisund> obnibolongo: Can't wait for the weekend, eh?
[12:57] <Hamman> suspect_: you have to compile it manually
[12:58] <obnibolongo> harisund: nah, just bored
[12:58] <Hamman> can't find a good guide for it
[12:58] <amphi> suspect_: unpack the tarball & there should be docs in it
[12:59] <Hamman> anyway, first you have to extract the tgz, then you have to open a terminal and cd into that directory, the run ./configure, make and sudo make install
[12:59] <Hamman> you have to have the build-essential package installed too
[12:59] <InnerFIRE> !wine
[12:59] <dominus> hola alguien sabe como montar imagenes mdf en linux
[12:59] <me2win> wtf happened to ubotu
[01:00] <suspect_> ok i see docs in the file what now?
[01:00] <me2win> dominion: k3b
[01:00] <amphi> suspect_: er, read them?
[01:00] <ZeZu> damn
[01:00] <Virtuous> whoa
[01:00] <ZeZu> thats a hell of a split
[01:00] <Seveas> I saw this one coming
[01:00] <ZeZu> nutsplit
[01:00] <Seveas> had 30 seconds lag earlier
[01:00] <Virtuous> what happened?
[01:00] <suspect_> im confused
[01:00] <shredder_> Whoa were still here
[01:01] <Seveas> Virtuous, freenode burped
[01:01] <amphi> suspect_: there should be a file called INSTALL or README
[01:01] <mlehrer> weird, all kinds of network problems going on
[01:01] <harisund> Could someone care to explain how our population jumped from 700+ to 1/2 of that?
[01:01] <amphi> harisund: netsplat

[01:01] <mlehrer> ~dictionary netsplit
[01:01] <Seveas> harisund, freenode burped
[01:01] <harisund> I am really curious to know what happened.. problem with zelazny.freenode.net irc.freenode.net
[01:01] <DarthLappy> Heh, helps if the bot's here :)
[01:01] <mmmiiikkkeee> i am having  a problem with how to configure my dual monotors... i cna move the mouse from one to the other but i cant drag an item from on monotor to he other
[01:01] <Seveas> ~help
[01:01] <harisund> But aren't we on freenode as well Seveas?
[01:01] <suspect_> i see usr folder
[01:01] <Seveas> harisund, yes, we're on this half
[01:01] <suspect_> then local
[01:01] <DarthLappy> harisund, That's your server...
[01:02] <suspect_> then bin and lib folders
[01:02] <shredder_> Works of the Devil
[01:02] <carthik> mmmiiikkkeee, you need to set them up in xinerama mode, else it is like having two logins, or two seperate "heads"
[01:02] <amphi> suspect_: why not install gaim or something, BTW?
[01:02] <nalioth> harisund: freenoded is made up of dozens of servers
[01:02] <harisund> Seveas: Oh ok .. I see.. thanks ..picture is kind of bit more clear now ..
[01:02] <Seveas> the people who seem to have left are on the other half
[01:02] <suspect_> i dont like gaim
[01:02] <suspect_> i want the normal aim
[01:02] <harisund> nalioth: Yes, and I use Gaim to connecto to Freenode.. would you suggest xchat?
[01:02] <suspect_> anyways
[01:02] <mmmiiikkkeee> where can i goto to get xinerama??
[01:02] <amphi> harisund: irssi is a nice irc client
[01:02] <vertex78> does anyone here use kino?
[01:02] <suspect_> in the bn folder i see a file called aim witha picture of a foot
[01:02] <suspect_> a green foot
[01:03] <nalioth> harisund: i'd suggest a dedicated irc client, rather then a multitasking communication widget (like gaim)
[01:03] <suspect_> bin
[01:03] <amphi> suspect_: I have no idea about the 'normal' aim
[01:03] <suspect_> i just want to know how to install it
[01:03] <harisund> amphi; When on anoher machine that doesn't have a IRC client, I use ssh to log back to my home computer and use irssi.. otherwise I prefer a client that alerts me when my name is typed with a sound or something ..
[01:03] <EvilGuru> would someone be able to help me with this? http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=159917
[01:03] <harisund> nalioth: Which client would come under a "dedicated" category?
[01:04] <shredder_> Solar flares
[01:04] <Seveas> welcome back people
[01:04] <xanavim> ouch, too many netsplits
[01:04] <amphi> heh
[01:04] <JrbM689> What happened?
[01:04] <me2win> netsplit
[01:04] <Seveas> lol
[01:04] <me2win> LOL
[01:04] <Seveas> and they're gone again
[01:04] <shredder_> Witchcraft
[01:04] <nalioth> harisund: xchat, irssi, kvirc, ksirc, any "irc client" that "only" does internet relay chat
[01:04] <Hamman> this is some crazy shit

[01:18] <jerry> getting ones i dont need cant find the one im lookin for
[01:19] <ompaul> jerry read the url the bot points to
[01:19] <jerry> ahh good thats the one last item to be configured
[01:19] <patrick52222> !java
[01:19] <ubotu> To install Java/Sun Java see Java on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats and also see !javadebs
[01:20] <amphi> michael__: who or w? whowatch?
[01:20] <michael__> amphi: I mean like where can I see which user is logged in?
[01:21] <Oetzi> hmm can anyone tell me howto get iso8859- character encoding to work under dapper
[01:21] <amphi> michael__: type 'w' in a term
[01:21] <gnu2it2> how do you list physical hard drives in a system?
[01:21] <taigeR> I am trying to install my Canon Lide 50/35 Scanner, anybody knows anything about that?
[01:21] <amphi> michael__: or 'who'
[01:22] <michael__> amphi: I see, but this kinda is a computer to my parents.. And thats a bit too advanced... No way to implement it in the menu?
[01:22] <mynamesbob> does anyone here use jack and oss2jack, i have read a howto on the ubuntu forums , set my gstreamer properties as oss, and logged out and back in, now when i go to listen to a cd or anything involving audio it plays for about 5 seconds then stops, then if i try to play it again, or another sound it says that there is no sound device, /dev/dsp
[01:23] <mynamesbob> i then have to log out and back in to hear sound
[01:23] <wvelez_> taigeR: plug it in, applications, graphics, xsane
[01:23] <box2> hi there
[01:23] <amphi> michael__: you could stick 'xterm -hold -e who' in a menu item I suppose...
[01:24] <AngryElf> is it necessary to format a data tape before writing files to the beginning?
[01:24] <Eleaf> mm
[01:25] <mynamesbob> does anyone know how i can fix this?
[01:25] <michael__> amphi: hmm, not exactly what i was looking for... But it does the job
[01:25] <michael__> amphi: thanks a lot :)
[01:26] <amphi> michael__: what more were you looking for? ;)
[01:26] <wfx> nalioth, its is a sweet pain to wait :-)

[01:27] <michael__> amphi: or in the system menu
[01:27] <wfx> i hope we get some user-backup feature in dapper.
[01:27] <amphi> michael__: oh - I don't know enough about gnome, I'm afraid, but 'whoami' is the command you want for that, not 'who'

[01:40] <Concord_Dawn> Wonder if anyone will notice that.
[01:40] <suspect_> red can you show me the exact command on opening wine?
[01:40] <Mathman> loki505maese: something along those lines I'm sure.
[01:40] <Jaymz> Concord_Dawn: Get off the linux irc channel :P
[01:40] <loki505maese> ok thanks
[01:41] <red_Marvin> Tomorrow, what happens if you open synaptic and search for ircii?
[01:41] <loki505maese> im new to this os thats y
[01:41] <Concord_Dawn> Jaymz: You know if breezy setup supports USB keyboards?
[01:41] <suspect_> me too
[01:41] <Mathman> loki505maese: course you'll need libdvdcss or whatever installed so the thing can get decrypted
[01:41] <matt88> Ho wdo I make groups?  Anyone?  lol
[01:41] <Tomorrow> I don't have X working
[01:41] <Mathman> loki505maese: and /dev/dvd may or may not exist.  that's just an example.
[01:41] <suspect_> how do i open wine?!!!!
[01:41] <loki505maese> when i play a dvd in totem its says an error
[01:42] <amphi> matt88: man addgroup
[01:42] <Mathman> suspect_: you don't open wine.  you use wine to run windows applications
[01:42] <Jaymz> Concord_Dawn: it should - although I use ps/2.  It took my usb mouse fine
[01:42] <matt88> thank you
[01:42] <suspect_> oh
[01:42] <Mathman> suspect_: for example: wine notepad.exe
[01:42] <loki505maese> error reading nav packet
[01:42] <loki505maese> something like that
[01:42] <red_Marvin> suspect_, as I said: run programs like wine <programname>
[01:42] <suspect_> so how do i run call of duty?
[01:42] <Jaymz> brb

[01:42] <Concord_Dawn> sure loki505maese, what do you need?
[01:42] <suspect_> show me the command
[01:43] <Mathman> suspect_: you don't until you run the call of duty installer
[01:43] <loki505maese> i cant get a dvd to play in totem
[01:43] <suspect_> i installed it aeready
[01:43] <shredder_> Totem is feeble
[01:43] <suspect_> already*
[01:43] <amphi> suspect_: please don't use the imperative mood ;)
[01:43] <red_Marvin> Tomorrow, ok. Does apt-get give any errors?
[01:43] <Mathman> loki505maese: apt-get libdvdnav or something
[01:43] <suspect_> sorry
[01:43] <Tomorrow> no
[01:43] <loki505maese> how do i get that
[01:43] <Mathman> loki505maese: or synaptic, or whatever your prefered method of software installation is
[01:43] <shredder_> You have to enable your dvd player
[01:43] <Tomorrow> other than can't find package stuff
[01:44] <suspect_> look i installed cod already
[01:44] <suspect_> so how do i play it?
[01:44] <Concord_Dawn> suspect_, please don't be rude to the help people here.
[01:44] <shredder_> In your synaptic package manager
[01:44] <suspect_> im not being rude
[01:44] <Concord_Dawn> They don't have to help you, they're volunteering.
[01:44] <amphi> suspect_: like a xylophone?
[01:44] <red_Marvin> Tomorrow, Ah then I probably know what you should do
[01:44] <suspect_> like what?
[01:44] <suspect_> lol
[01:44] <Tomorrow> ?
[01:45] <Mathman> suspect_: wine /home/suspect/.wine/c_drive/Program files/cod/cod.exe
[01:45] <suspect_> i just want to know how to open and play call of duty
[01:45] <red_Marvin> Tomorrow, wait a little...
[01:45] <Mathman> suspect_: something along those lines
[01:45] <Concord_Dawn> read what Mathman wrote suspect_.
[01:45] <suspect_> ooooh
[01:45] <suspect_> ok thnx
[01:45] <Tomorrow> I'm shivering in anticipation
[01:45] <loki505maese> mathman can u send me the files that i need to get my dvd to play
[01:45] <shredder_> Loki go in your synaptic package manager and under sound and video enable youe dvd player
[01:45] <Concord_Dawn> loki505maese, apt-get install totem.
[01:45] <red_Marvin> Tomorrow, hehe, try this: http://ubuntuguide.squarecows.com/doku.php#repositories
[01:45] <Concord_Dawn> totem /dev/cda
[01:45] <Mathman> loki505maese: not me.  I don't even run linux at work
[01:45] <suspect_> ok i went to the cod folder
[01:45] <suspect_> i clicked on the codmp.exe file
[01:45] <Mathman> loki505maese: just run synaptic.  you don't know how to do that?
[01:46] <red_Marvin> Tomorrow, and then try installing ircii again
[01:46] <Tomorrow> oh
[01:46] <Tomorrow> ooooooh
[01:46] <loki505maese> where can i find the synamic thing thats your talking about
[01:46] <suspect_> and said couldnt open file
[01:46] <Tomorrow> oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh
[01:46] <Tomorrow> yup that worked
[01:46] <Tomorrow> its installing
[01:46] <Tomorrow> thank you so much
[01:46] <zig_> anyone know when we can expect 'flight 7'?
[01:46] <Concord_Dawn> suspect_, it's because you haven't set up an association for .exe files.
[01:46] <Mathman> loki505maese: if nothing else, open up a terminal and run "apt-get synaptic"
[01:46] <suspect_> and how do i do that?
[01:46] <Concord_Dawn> suspect_, you don't.
[01:46] <Concord_Dawn> read what Mathman wrote.
[01:46] <red_Marvin> Tomorrow, Glad I could help ^_^
[01:46] <suspect_> so how am i supposed to play cod?
[01:47] <MarineBoy> How hard is this Dristro to install?
[01:47] <Concord_Dawn> type wine /home/suspect/.wine/c_drive/Program files/cod/codsp.exe into a terminal.
[01:47] <shredder_> loki goto system then administration
[01:47] <Concord_Dawn> MarineBoy, easier than windows.
[01:47] <suspect_> ooooh
[01:47] <amphi> MarineBoy: trivially easy, usually
[01:47] <jbroome> MarineBoy: can you turn on a pc and put a cdrom in a drive?
[01:47] <Troel1> Hello everybody. I'm going to install the new dist ("new"), but I'm having some trouble with BIOS. Can anybody help?
[01:47] <suspect_> actually i wanted codmp
[01:47] <suspect_> not sp
[01:47] <MarineBoy> Will it detect my DSL automaticly?
[01:47] <Concord_Dawn> then replace sp with mp...
[01:47] <suspect_> lol
[01:47] <Concord_Dawn> MarineBoy, possibly.
[01:48] <MarineBoy> hrm
[01:48] <Concord_Dawn> It depends on if your DSL system needs special software to work or not.
[01:48] <loki505maese> nothing will pop pop
[01:48] <loki505maese> pop up
[01:48] <loki505maese> i mean
[01:48] <MarineBoy> See, Problem is if it dont, then I have no way to change back to windows because i lost my winblowz installation cd.
[01:48] <Mathman> loki505maese: meaning?
[01:48] <MarineBoy> I dont HAVE to install the software for my DSL it automatically comes up.
[01:48] <red_Marvin> MarineBoy, If you download the live cd you could always find out
[01:48] <Mathman> ok...
[01:48] <suspect_> this is what hapened
[01:48] <suspect_> wine: cannot find '/home/suspect/.wine/c_drive/Program'
[01:48] <Concord_Dawn> loki505maese, what are you trying to installing?
[01:48] <MarineBoy> Yeah thats what I think i'm going to do
[01:49] <Concord_Dawn> suspect_, you need to put quotes around /home/suspect...........
[01:49] <suspect_> "
[01:49] <suspect_> that?
[01:49] <Concord_Dawn> yea.
[01:49] <suspect_> oh
[01:49] <Tomorrow> hey, I have another question, how do I find my video card's bus identifier, I assume I use lspci, but what am I looking for?
[01:49] <suspect_> then can you write it down for me?
[01:49] <suspect_> = D
[01:49] <Mathman> suspect_: you need to use your brain just a tad here and replace the sample path I put there with the actual path
[01:49] <yipe> hello everbody
[01:49] <suspect_> tye
[01:49] <Concord_Dawn> hi yipe?
[01:49] <suspect_> type
[01:49] <Mathman> suspect_: it's not too hard man
[01:49] <amphi> Tomorrow: unless you have more than one card, you don't need that
[01:49] <green_earz> MarineBoy: run the ubuntu live cd first on the box you want to install on to see if get a internet connection
[01:49] <Tomorrow> well I'm setting up my xserver
[01:50] <Tomorrow> because it didn't work before
[01:50] <_Dez> anything think i can play xvids on a 266Mhz laptop with 96MB of ram?
[01:50] <joesmith> any ideas on how to set up a secondary gateway for internet traffic (i have two isps and two routers). i'm afraid it is easy in windows because they have a default gateway and you can just add others in a list. I suspect it can be done with the route command, but have not figured out the right parameters to not confuse network traffic
[01:50] <Tomorrow> and I had to replace the ati driver with fglrx
[01:50] <yipe> hi:)
[01:50] <amphi> Tomorrow: for a single card, you can leave the bus id blank
[01:50] <Tomorrow> and now it wants to know my video card's bus identifier
[01:50] <Tomorrow> oooh
[01:50] <Tomorrow> ok
[01:50] <zig_> _Dez: best way to find out is to try
[01:50] <suspect_> i tried the quotes
[01:50] <suspect_> error
[01:50] <_Dez> zig_ whats a lightweight video player?
[01:51] <amphi> _Dez: maybe ;)
[01:51] <Troel1> Can anybody help me with jumpers? I need to reset BIOS in order to boot the new dist.
[01:51] <Concord_Dawn> joesmith, have you searched http://wiki.ubuntu.com?
[01:51] <zig_> _Dez: maplyer is pretty light
[01:51] <amphi> _Dez: I like mplayer
[01:51] <Concord_Dawn> _Dez: I like mplayer.
[01:51] <suspect_>  so uhmm
[01:51] <joesmith> dawn: tried to find info on default / secondary gateways but no luck yet.
[01:51] <Mathman> Troel1: you'd look up your motherboard at your vendors site and find a manual.
[01:51] <green_earz> Dez : vlc
[01:51] <Concord_Dawn> suspect_, please paste the errors?
[01:51] <amphi> _Dez: we have a quorum ;)
[01:51] <_Dez> k mplayer it is
[01:51] <suspect_> can someone type the exact thing im supposed to type?
[01:51] <_jason> _Dez: mplayer definitely
[01:51] <_Dez> ;)
[01:51] <Concord_Dawn> joesmith, you have multiple interfaces on your computer?
[01:51] <suspect_> wine: cannot find '/home/suspect/.wine/c_drive/Programfiles/cod/codmp.exe'
[01:52] <Concord_Dawn> suspect_, find codmp.exe and tell me what the pathname is.
[01:52] <joesmith> no, set up a virtual eth0:0
[01:52] <Zarephath> Wow...kewl all I get is audio with kaffeine, totem...This is a dvd that is currently playing on my desktop dvd player...all the files are installed per the wiki...any ideas?
[01:52] <Concord_Dawn> joesmith, can't help you then. I have no idea about virtual interfaces.
[01:52] <Mathman> suspect_: how could we do that.  your home directory could be anything from /home/suspect to /home/bill to /home/tina.  how are we supposed to know that?  you can't just use your head a tiny little bit here and figure out if you'd need to replace something or other in that example?
[01:52] <Concord_Dawn> Zarephath, mplayer?
[01:52] <suspect_> well in cod sp the path is
[01:52] <suspect_> /home/suspect/cod
[01:52] <Troel1> Mathman: It's not possible to set up the system to boot from the new dist, whilst running Ubuntu?
[01:52] <Concord_Dawn> sigh.
[01:52] <joesmith> assume for the moment that there is two interfaces, what then/
[01:52] <Concord_Dawn> then do this.
[01:52] <amphi> Zarephath: try with mplayer from an xterm - at least you'll see some messages; if you need more, mplayer -v
[01:53] <Concord_Dawn> wine "/home/suspect/cod/codmp.exe"
[01:53] <Concord_Dawn> that's it.
[01:53] <Concord_Dawn> and it still might not work, because you need DirectX, which Wine doesn't support afaik.
[01:53] <kfarrell> Dapper doesn't have xlibs, how can I force Cedega to install?
[01:53] <Mathman> Concord_Dawn: wine does dx8 at least.
[01:53] <Concord_Dawn> there a new version of ubuntu due out soon? I've been out of the loop for a while?
[01:54] <Zarephath> amphi: K thanks
[01:54] <zig_> yup
[01:54] <zig_> dapper drake
[01:54] <Concord_Dawn> Mathman, thanks.
[01:54] <Mathman> kfarrell: you'd install xlibs or whatever it is you need.
[01:54] <suspect_> could'nt load default_mp.cfg. Make sure call of duty is run from the correct folder.
[01:54] <zig_> Dapper drake should suck less than breezy badger
[01:54] <suspect_> thats what is said
[01:54] <Bobrownik> are there any ati x800 64bit drivers?
[01:55] <Mathman> suspect_: change into that directory first before you run it then.  wine ./codmp.exe
[01:55] <Zarephath> amphi: sudo apt-get install mplayer doesn't find the file repos are enabled...
[01:55] <Concord_Dawn> damnit.
[01:55] <kfarrell> I have cedega .deb file, can I force it to install in dapper. Dapper doesn't have xlib package per se, it has it installed in other packages?
[01:55] <amphi> Zarephath: apt-cache search mplayer to get a package name
[01:55] <Mathman> kfarrell: why not just get the tar.gz then?
[01:55] <_jason> ubotu: tell Zarephath about mplayer
[01:55] <Superkuh> (Ubuntu 5.10) When setting up a samba printer share (intended for use by a win2k box) of a CUPS printer in smb.conf under the '[printers] ' block the 'printer = ' value refers to the /etc/cups/printers.conf  '<DefaultPrinter LaserJet-3P-w/-PCL5>' string, right? So I'd put, 'printer = LaserJet-3P-w/-PCL5' in smb.conf?
[01:55] <Zarephath> amphi: Kewl that was the next question :-O
[01:56] <Concord_Dawn> ok, debootstrap exited with an error code 2 when I tried to install Breezy on my desktop. Can someone tell me what might cause this?
[01:56] <suspect_> this is the exact location
[01:56] <suspect_> "/home/suspect/cod/CoDMP.exe"
[01:56] <_jason> suspect_: just run wine and PLEASE stop using enter as punctuation
[01:56] <Bobrownik> are there any ati x800 64bit drivers?
[01:57] <Concord_Dawn> suspect_, you fail at Linux. Please reformat and go back to Windows. If you can't figure out how to run a program from terminal, you don't deserve to run Linux.
[01:57] <Mathman> suspect_: and is there a foo.cfg or whatever there?
[01:57] <kfarrell> Mathman, I only have the .deb version
[01:57] <Concord_Dawn> debootstrap exited with an error code 2 when I tried to install Breezy on my desktop. Can someone tell me what might cause this?
[01:57] <suspect_> in the localtion?
[01:57] <amphi> Concord_Dawn: now, now ;)
[01:57] <Mathman> kfarrell: then stop pirating software I say
[01:57] <shredder_> Suspect you will eventualy figure it out
[01:57] <Concord_Dawn> amphi, you mind helping me? :-P
[01:57] <amphi> suspect_: you need to read the docs for wine, it would seem
[01:57] <suspect_> i just dont know how to play codmp on this linux joint
[01:58] <Concord_Dawn> wow.
[01:58] <Mathman> linux joint.  yikes.
[01:58] <Concord_Dawn> IT'S NOT THAT HARD.
[01:58] <kfarrell> Mathman, well since I paid for it, <insert expletive here>
[01:58] <suspect_> i know alot about windows
[01:58] <_Dez> wow xfce4 runs way smoother then flux
[01:58] <Mathman> kfarrell: since you paid for it then, why couldn't you easily get the tarball?
[01:58] <Concord_Dawn> TYPE wine "<pathtocod>/codmp.exe" jeesus.
[01:58] <suspect_> but i added this new hard drive and i wanted to install linux ont he new one
[01:58] <vinboy> hi
[01:58] <Concord_Dawn> sigh.
[01:58] <vinboy> is making my fat32 writable in linux any safe
[01:58] <vinboy> ?
[01:58] <suspect_> but instead i erased windows from the old one and i didnt feel like installing windows back
[01:59] <Concord_Dawn> yes.
[01:59] <_jason> vinboy: it's fine
[01:59] <suspect_> so i came to ubuntu
[01:59] <Concord_Dawn> suspect_, you need to read the "Linux for Dummies" book before you start using Linux.
[01:59] <Mathman> suspect_: nobody needs to hear your life story
[01:59] <amphi> kfarrell: --force-depends ?
[01:59] <suspect_> mathman shush
[01:59] <amphi> suspect_: there's a handy 'intro to linux' book you can d/l from tldp.org, FWIW
[01:59] <wenko> anyone know why I cant get a connection via SSH from my WRT54G and my Ubuntu Linux box, but putty works fine...  i get this error: ssh: connection to wenko@<IP_ADDRESS>:22 exited: No auth methods could be used
[01:59] <vinboy> _jason: ok.. thans
[02:00] <shredder_> With windows every thing is turned on with linux you must turn what you want on
[02:00] <kfarrell> amphi, ahh, ty. I'll give that a try
[02:00] <amphi> kfarrell: otherwise, man dpkg ;)
[02:00] <Concord_Dawn> amphi, can you tell me why debootstrap would exit with an error code of 2 while trying to install on my desktop?
[02:00] <green_earz> suspect_,: http://www.linux.org/   could be help for some liunx learning
[02:00] <Concord_Dawn> This desktop ran Hoary just fine.
[02:00] <amphi> Concord_Dawn: in a word, 'no'
[02:01] <Troel1> Mathman: I'm sorry to bother you, but can I make the system boot from the disk. Can I configure this in Ubuntu? Maybe something init or...?
[02:01] <Concord_Dawn> list of possible causes then? :-P
[02:01] <devon_> how do I get k3b to burn mp3'S
[02:01] <Troel1> Mathman: It won't open BIOS.
[02:01] <Concord_Dawn> Troel1, BIOS controls the boot order.
[02:01] <shredder_> Hey suspect don't listen to anyones crap about you need to go back to windows.
[02:01] <Concord_Dawn> oh, nvm.
[02:02] <amphi> suspect_: for this particular problem, you may find useful docs in /usr/share/doc/wine, dunno, never used the thing myself
[02:02] <_jason> ubotu: tell suspect_ about cli
[02:02] <[cro] smiley> how to convert string to integer using c++?
[02:02] <kfarrell> amphi, Thanks, worked fine. I forgot about --force-depends
[02:02] <Mathman> Troel1: you'd need to access the bios setup.  well, I spose you could do it from linux perhaps if you're all ultimate, but nah, you'd need to access the bios setup screen.
[02:02] <_jason> suspect_: if you follow those tutorials ubout just sent you, I think you will have a much easier time
[02:02] <[cro] smiley> and how to convert integer to string using c++?
[02:02] <amphi> [cro] smiley: atoi(3) ? ;)
[02:02] <wenko> anyone at all able to help me??  .anyone know why I cant get a connection via SSH from my WRT54G and my Ubuntu Linux box, but putty works fine...  i get this error: ssh: connection to wenko@<IP_ADDRESS>:22 exited: No auth methods could be used
[02:03] <[cro] smiley> amphi, and string to int?
[02:03] <_Dez> whats the cmd to install mplayer
[02:03] <Troel1> Mathman: I'll just have to try another thousands times then ;) Thanks for your help anyway :)
[02:03] <Mathman> suspect_: or you could listen to what I told ya about 15 minutes ago and change to the directory your program resides in before you try and run it.
[02:03] <[cro] smiley> amphi, sorry int to string?
[02:03] <_jason> ubotu: tell _Dez about mplayer
[02:03] <Bambino> one question that is really annoying me.. For some reason, there are 5 users showing connect at the same time to me. However, it does not help tp kill all the process, relog, restart, turn off the internet. Nothing! can someone please help?
[02:03] <_Dez> ty
[02:03] <suspect_> i dont get it
[02:04] <Troel1> :P
[02:04] <amphi> [cro] smiley: snprintf? these are standard c lib funcs, BTW
[02:04] <Mathman> suspect_: in the shell.  the cd command.  you know what a shell is?
[02:04] <[cro] smiley> amphi, it works in c++?
[02:04] <Mathman> suspect_: cd /home/suspect/call_of_duty
[02:04] <suspect_> yes
[02:04] <suspect_> terminal
[02:04] <ultrasonicsite> Hey
[02:04] <ultrasonicsite> I have a question
[02:05] <amphi> [cro] smiley: strtol is better than atoi, BTW - dunno about c++
[02:05] <suspect_> cd ~/Desktop
[02:05] <suspect_> correct?
[02:05] <amphi> ultrasonicsite: congratulations
[02:05] <Mathman> suspect_: if that's where you installed call of duty to, sure.
[02:05] <ultrasonicsite> Hey guys, I just updated ubuntu and when the new kernel starts I get an error
[02:05] <suspect_> ok
[02:05] <suspect_> and what do i type there
[02:05] <tritium> suspect_: please use punctuation rather than hitting the enter key too often
[02:05] <Mathman> suspect_: ls
[02:05] <Concord_Dawn> Can someone tell me why it won't let me install Breezy? It's been stuck on retrieving sed from the disk for about 20 minutes now.
[02:05] <suspect_> thats all i need to  know to be able to play cod
[02:05] <ultrasonicsite> It has something to do with cylinders of some sort
[02:05] <suspect_> Ok.
[02:06] <suspect_> ls?
[02:06] <Mathman> suspect_: typically.  yep.
[02:06] <Superkuh> Is there a quick way to restart smbd or reload my smb.conf file from the command line?
[02:06] <shredder_> Cocord dawn what brand motherboard?
[02:06] <suspect_> Thats what you want me to type?
[02:06] <suspect_> On the command?
[02:06] <amphi> [cro] smiley: if you use some string object it probably has conversion methods
[02:06] <paul_chudley> concord dawn, do you have a non-linux format partition?
[02:06] <suspect_> ls?
[02:06] <Phobetor> Superkuh, sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[02:06] <amphi> suspect_: man ls ;)
[02:06] <Mathman> suspect_: ls, the command ls, yes, that's what you'd type.
[02:06] <tritium> Superkuh: sudo invoke-rc.d <servicename> restart
[02:06] <suspect_> LoL.
[02:07] <Superkuh> Thanks.
[02:07] <Concord_Dawn> paul_chudley, no. The disk was freshly formatted to Ext3.
[02:07] <suspect_> I see the files that i got on the desktop when i type in ls.
[02:07] <blindx> X-Chat doesn't log by default, does it?
[02:07] <shredder_> Concord Dawn are you using a P4 elite group motherboard?
[02:07] <suspect_> So what do i do from there?
[02:07] <Mathman> suspect_: what files do you see then?
[02:08] <Concord_Dawn> shredder_, no. It's an 8 year old motherboard.
[02:08] <suspect_> aim.tgz
[02:08] <Concord_Dawn> ...........
[02:08] <suspect_> call of duty .run
[02:08] <shredder_> Pretty old
[02:08] <shredder_> Ancient
[02:08] <suspect_> and call of duty united offensive.run
[02:08] <hoopyFrood> blindx: not sure, check ~/.xchat2/xchat.conf
[02:08] <schtinky> My attempt at an AMD64 breezy install is failing. The install hangs at "installing grub package". Anyone know how to get around this?
[02:09] <blindx> Damn. Someone said my name was gone, and this channel is so active, I don't know who/when
[02:09] <Concord_Dawn> shredder_, yes. But it ran Hoary fine and I did a dist-upgarde to Breezy, so I don't see it why it doesn't love my Breezy install media.
[02:09] <blindx> my name while I was gone, rather
[02:09] <suspect_> Beside the call of duty.run file i see wine_0.9.10-winehql-2_i386.deb
[02:09] <amphi> suspect_: just don't play games; it's obviously not meant to happen ;)
[02:09] <Mathman> suspect_: so perhaps you're in the wrong directory.  what gives you the impression ~/Desktop was the right one?
[02:09] <BBHoss> hey, whats a good program to burn dvd-video with in linux?
[02:09] <LadyNikon> hmm
[02:09] <suspect_> What?
[02:09] <LadyNikon> it seems I missing kernels
[02:09] <eduardo> hi to every where
[02:10] <suspect_> aim is in red.
[02:10] <amphi> LadyNikon: how disappointing ;)
[02:10] <eduardo> I'm from Venezuela
[02:10] <BBHoss> somebody please help
[02:10] <LadyNikon> I had to reinstall my machine
[02:10] <LadyNikon> last install i could select smp kernels
[02:10] <green_earz> BBHoss:  k3b
[02:10] <LadyNikon> this time.. i cant after i install them.
[02:11] <suspect_> Ok?
[02:11] <BBHoss> it does DVD-Video?
[02:11] <amphi> LadyNikon: you can always install an smp kernel later
[02:11] <suspect_> So what do i do now?
[02:11] <LadyNikon> amphi: it is later
[02:11] <LadyNikon> and i dont see it in the synaptic package manager
[02:11] <_jason> suspect_: read the cli tutorials please
[02:11] <shredder_> I was asking cause My P4 elite group ran warty fine with the exception of finding my on board lan card, The same motherboard will not install breezy or run live cd
[02:11] <LadyNikon> last time it was.
[02:11] <jared_> Question
[02:11] <Mathman> suspect_: let me ask you this.  where is call of duty?  and in what format?  typically it would be on an installation cd.
[02:11] <jared_> I installed Ubuntu and now I cannot login as root in the terminal
[02:11] <green_earz> BBHoss: yes its do vod files
[02:11] <amphi> LadyNikon: heh - apt-cache shows no smp kernel packages?
[02:11] <jared_> What gives?
[02:12] <suspect_> Ok.
[02:12] <suspect_> Call of Duty is  .run file
[02:12] <amphi> jared_: ubuntu comes with root disabled, you're meant to use sudo
[02:12] <LadyNikon> amphi: dunno what that is.
[02:12] <suspect_> or a .exe file in /home/suspect/cod/codmp.exe
[02:12] <_jason> ubotu: tell jared_ about root
[02:12] <jramsey> jared_, you don't need root or su with U.
[02:12] <LadyNikon> r000t
[02:12] <cdevidal> Yo I need to run a backup that spans CDs; would use Mondo but it's broken in Breezy :-/  Can anyone think of an equivalent?
[02:12] <jared_> Got it.  So I can use sudo?
[02:12] <Mathman> suspect_: and you got this where?  because call_of_duty.run or whatever sounds a lot like a linux application, most like a call of duty server.
[02:12] <amphi> LadyNikon: try 'apt-cache search kernel smp'
[02:13] <jramsey> jared_, y
[02:13] <suspect_> I installed Call of Duty earlier.
[02:13] <Mathman> suspect_: and this /home/suspect/cod/codmp.exe exists?
[02:13] <schtinky> My attempt at an AMD64 breezy install is failing. The install hangs at "installing grub package". Anyone know how to get around this?
[02:13] <suspect_> with terminal.
[02:13] <jared_> yes
[02:13] <Mathman> suspect_: you installed it how?
[02:13] <jared_> Thanks very much, guys.
[02:13] <jared_> Just want to install some VLC
[02:13] <jramsey> jared_, yw happy U'ing
[02:13] <suspect_> sh ./call<tab>
[02:13] <suspect_> or
[02:14] <LadyNikon> amphi: ok some came up
[02:14] <LadyNikon> how come they arent in the synaptic?
[02:14] <suspect_> sudo sh ./call.of.duty etc.
[02:14] <amphi> LadyNikon: dunno, never used it
[02:14] <suspect_> Ok?
[02:14] <Mathman> suspect_: and this thing you installed, that was  call_of_duty.run or whatever?  which happens to be?  and it was installed to /home/suspect/cod?
[02:14] <dli> how to prevent the wireless interface be brought up auto? when I want to use the wired one
[02:14] <suspect_> yes
[02:15] <schuetze> hi.
[02:15] <Mathman> suspect_:  yes?  yes what?
[02:15] <LadyNikon> dli: disable the wireless
[02:15] <diego> hey apt-get says i have no gcc installed but synaptic says it is
[02:15] <LadyNikon> system> admin > netowrking
[02:15] <Mathman> suspect_: jesus man.  you gotta learn how to carry on an irc conversation.
[02:15] <defendguin> is there a guide for people to get xgl working if they have an intel chip?
[02:15] <suspect_> i just came here to learn how to install and run call of duty on ubuntu.
[02:16] <suspect_> but people here keeps giving me attitude
[02:16] <suspect_> and telling me to real cli tutorial.
[02:16] <suspect_> = \
[02:16] <suspect_> getting me frustrated.
[02:16] <cafuego> Call of Duty is Linux software?
[02:16] <suspect_> windows
[02:16] <cdevidal> suspect_: lol, it's a good idea to learn how to communicate in IRC if you want good help
[02:16] <dli> LadyNikon, yes, I disabled wireless (ifconfig eth1 down), and enabled eth0, after some time (5 mins), eth1 is up again
[02:17] <cafuego> Have you checked whether people have made it run with Wine (and or Cedega)?
[02:17] <LadyNikon> dli: odd.
[02:17] <Mathman> suspect_: so you want to sit here complaining some more or answer my questions now?  guess which way is going to help you out and which isn't?
[02:17] <amphi> dli: is dhclient running on that interface? if so, kill it
[02:17] <eobanb__> are we talking about the call of duty server software or something
[02:17] <LadyNikon> dli: it should be wlan shouldn't it?
[02:17] <suspect_> ok i came here for you to help me.
[02:17] <dli> amphi, I see, it's dhcpcd :(
[02:17] <eobanb__> suspect_, are we talking about call of duty the game, or some server software for it
[02:17] <_sHaDe> n8 all
[02:17] <cdevidal> suspect_: answers that are just "yes" and "Ok?" are too confusing
[02:17] <jramsey> b4 i do something unnecessary, the stand. distro doesnt include build-essential right?
[02:17] <suspect_> the game
[02:18] <eobanb__> suspect_, because there is in fact a linux server package for it
[02:18] <eobanb__> suspect_, okay
[02:18] <suspect_> Ok.
[02:18] <suspect_> lol
[02:18] <cafuego> suspect_: Have you checked whether people have made it run with Wine (and or Cedega)?
[02:18] <Mathman> eobanb: I'd guess the latter considering he's saying callofduty.run or whatever is what he installed.
[02:18] <Blue-Steel> hi guys
[02:18] <green_earz> diego: from a terminal use the command " dpkg -l | grep gcc "  to see if the package is installed
[02:18] <suspect_> i've seen screen shots of counter strike on wine.
[02:18] <eobanb__> suspect_, looks like call of duty works fine on vanilla wine
[02:18] <eobanb__> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=3603
[02:18] <cafuego> is call of duty the same as counter strike?
[02:18] <suspect_> vanilla wine?
[02:18] <suspect_> can i download that?
[02:19] <cafuego> sudo apt-get install wine
[02:19] <cafuego> !info wine
[02:19] <Blue-Steel> i installed ubuntu as 'server install' and later added  kdm and kde. but now i need to set it properly . if there any 'howto' that you guys can recommend ?
[02:19] <ubotu> wine: (Microsoft Windows Compatibility Layer (Binary Emulator and Library)), section universe/otherosfs, is optional. Version: 0.0.20050725-0ubuntu1 (breezy), Packaged size: 14131 kB, Installed size: 55484 kB
[02:19] <amphi> suspect_: you have 'fruits of the forest' wine ATM? ;)
[02:19] <cafuego> ... after you enable 'universe'.
[02:19] <cafuego> amphi: chocolate & hazelnut wine
[02:19] <suspect_> i have the newest wine.
[02:19] <LadyNikon> amphi: ok so how do i install it from apt-cache?
[02:19] <suspect_> 0..9.10 something like that.
[02:20] <amphi> LadyNikon: apt-get install <package_name>
[02:20] <eobanb__> suspect_, vanilla mean just means plain old wine, (as opposed to a patched version or a commercial version)
[02:20] <LadyNikon> ah
[02:20] <jramsey> if i need to build a module, i need to install build-essential over a stand. U install right?
[02:20] <suspect_> lol
[02:20] <LadyNikon> amphi: oh wait
[02:20] <suspect_> Ok so anyways how do i run call of duty.
[02:20] <suspect_> LoL
[02:20] <amphi> suspect_: the ice cream idiom is an industry standard ;)
[02:20] <MrKubuntuUser> Hi... is anybody else getting "memory corruption detected" in their syslog from kdm on Kubuntu Dapper?
[02:21] <suspect_> The readme of call of duty tels me to get wine(x)/cedega
[02:21] <LadyNikon> amphi: irqbalance - Balances irq's for SMP systems
[02:21] <LadyNikon> pcmcia-modules-2.4.26-1-686-smp - PCMCIA Modules for Linux (kernel 2.4.26-1-686-smp)
[02:21] <cdevidal> Mondo is broken in Breezy :-/  Anyone know a CD-spanning backup tool that worx in Breezy?
[02:21] <LadyNikon> thats not a kernel
[02:21] <LadyNikon> thats a module.
[02:21] <MrKubuntuUser> It still seems to function correctly , but I noticed that started to show up after I updated this afternoon.
[02:21] <suspect_> But i dont know how to get that.
[02:21] <eobanb__> suspect_, you dont need cedega....that readme is probably outdated.
[02:21] <suspect_> oh.
[02:21] <suspect_> ok then.
[02:21] <diego> hey apt-get says i have no gcc installed but synaptic says it is, and when i try ti compile some file, gcc tries to compile iostream first, and gives LOTS of errors
[02:21] <eobanb__> regular wine will work fine
[02:21] <suspect_> So.
[02:21] <LadyNikon> amphi: all these are pcmcia modules
[02:21] <suspect_> What do i have to do now?
[02:22] <LadyNikon> amphi: brb
[02:22] <amphi> LadyNikon: try apt-cache search kernel smp | grep kernel-image perhaps
[02:23] <LadyNikon> amphi: nothing
[02:23] <eobanb__> suspect_, http://www.liflg.org/?catid=7&gameid=1
[02:23] <LadyNikon> amphi: gonna run to the store brb
[02:23] <cdevidal> LadyNikon: have you tried apt-cache search kernel-image | grep smp  ?
[02:23] <suspect_> Look man i already downloaded the game from there.
[02:23] <eobanb__> then put your CD in and run the file
[02:23] <suspect_> I just need to know how to play it on linux.
[02:23] <suspect_> Ubuntu.
[02:24] <Mathman> suspect_: not zenwalk?
[02:24] <suspect_> zenwalk?
[02:24] <Mathman> suspect_: as opposed to ubuntu
[02:25] <heyjoe2> !frostwire
[02:25] <twidget> would someone point me to the FAQ on dual booting Ubuntu/Windows?
[02:25] <suspect_> I dont see that anywhere.
[02:26] <eobanb__> suspect_, did you install the game yet?
[02:26] <saik0> !tell twidget about dualboot
[02:26] <jramsey> why is aptitude better to use than apt-get ??
[02:26] <suspect_> Yes.
[02:26] <cafuego> 1) Install windows and leave free space on disk. 2) Install Ubuntu. Done :-)
[02:26] <eobanb__> then you should just be able to do "wine /pathto/game.exe"
[02:26] <twidget> caaha, so Ubuntu last
[02:26] <cdevidal> never mind on the CD backup tool, I found out how to use split :-)  http://www.linux-backup.net/App/
[02:26] <amphi> jramsey: apt-get works for me
[02:26] <cafuego> twidget: Yep, it will detect windows and add it to the boot menu.
[02:26] <jramsey> ok txs
[02:27] <cafuego> twidget: If you install windows second, it will detect linux and wipe it from the boot menu ;-)
[02:27] <ubun2> Hey, you think 10GB is enough for an ubuntu partition if I split off /home/ ?
[02:27] <twidget> thanks, both saik0 and cafuego
[02:27] <cafuego> ubun2: More than enough.
[02:27] <eobanb__> ubun2, yes.
[02:27] <heyjoe2> could someone please tell me how to get the dos2unix app required to run frostwire on ubuntu
[02:27] <Mathman> eobanb__: seems like he tried that.  but it complained about not finding foo.cfg or whatever.  course I suggested he change into his call of duty directory first then.  course I don't think he listened at all...
[02:27] <twidget> no way to share a drive between the two for docs, is there?
[02:27] <cafuego> !find bin/unix2dos
[02:27] <suspect_> Yes i have installed call of duty already.
[02:27] <ubotu> Ubuntu Search of 'bin/unix2dos' (1 shown): (/usr/bin/unix2dos) in utils/sysutils.
[02:28] <suspect_> And?
[02:28] <Mathman> suspect_: and then you run it
[02:28] <cafuego> twidget: if you install on fat32, Linux can read/write to it.
[02:28] <suspect_> How?
[02:28] <eobanb__> ...
[02:28] <eobanb__> i just said
[02:28] <Mathman> suspect_: wine apparently.
[02:28] <eobanb__> wine /path/to/game.exe
[02:28] <jramsey> with apt-get, the list of suggested pkgs after the extras; how do i tell apt-get to install those too, or does it anyway??
[02:28] <suspect_> Thats what ive been meaning to learn the whole time.
[02:28] <cafuego> twidget: WIndows can read from (and sometimes write to) ext3, with some free software.
[02:28] <ubun2> Does it make any difference if the install, home , or swap are on logical or physical partitions?
[02:28] <cafuego> ubun2: no
[02:28] <suspect_> but i dont see wine anywhere
[02:29] <Mathman> suspect_: wine would be the command you type
[02:29] <inthane> Anybody willing to help a somewhat n00b with a bizzare networking issue?
[02:29] <eobanb__> 'you dont see wine' ...??
[02:29] <diego> hey apt-get says i have no gcc installed but synaptic says it is, and when i try ti compile some file, gcc tries to compile iostream first, and gives LOTS of errors
[02:29] <amphi> jramsey: you must install them yourself - aptitude may install 'suggests' or 'recommends', dunno
[02:29] <twidget> sorry, didn't mean to be rude
[02:29] <jramsey> amphi, ok ty
[02:29] <suspect_> ok?
[02:29] <spoon> I had to install wine on my ubuntu box, it didn't come pre-installed. :\
[02:29] <twidget> okay, I'm off to try and dual boot...
[02:29] <cafuego> twidget: rude? :-)
[02:30] <eobanb__> twidget, just remember, install windows first, then ubuntu.
[02:30] <twidget> quitting without thanking you
[02:30] <amphi> spoon: typing 'apt-get install wine' a bit tiring, eh? ;)
[02:30] <cafuego> Well, you know..
[02:30] <twidget> I clicked the wrong window :/
[02:30] <cafuego> good luck :-)
[02:30] <heyjoe2> could someone please tell me how to get the dos2unix app required to run frostwire on ubuntu?
[02:30] <jramsey> install windows ... reboot 17 times ... install U. ... reboot once ;)
[02:30] <buulian> what is linux greatest setback that dev's can fix?
[02:30] <gnu2it2> what would cause /dev/ttyS? not being created?
[02:30] <eobanb__> buulian, !???
[02:30] <cafuego> heyjoe2: install 'sysutils'
[02:30] <suspect_> Ok?
[02:30] <suspect_> ya still didnt tell me nothing
[02:31] <suspect_> what do i have to type?
[02:31] <Mathman> suspect_: wine
[02:31] <eobanb__> suspect_, maybe you can listen this time
[02:31] <buulian> what is the greatest need?
[02:31] <heyjoe2> cafuego: its already installed, where do i access it
[02:31] <eobanb__> wine /path/to/game.exe
[02:31] <cafuego> heyjoe2: Just on the commandline.
[02:31] <eobanb__> where /path/to/game.exe is the actual path to the game
[02:31] <amphi> buulian: good video editing sw
[02:31] <jramsey> amphi, apt-get build-essentials is fine except at end i see W: Couldn't stat source package list http://us.archive.ubuntu.com breezy/universe Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy_universe_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[02:31] <Mathman> eobanb: I'm thinking more like so: cd /path/to/game; wine ./game.exe
[02:31] <jramsey> W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
[02:31] <inthane> Okay, I'm just going to throw it out there.  I'm running MIrc inside of a WinXP VMWare session on this same computer.  The XP session can do everything on the 'net just fine, and is in bridging mode.
[02:31] <buulian> besides iTunes...
[02:31] <jramsey> should i worry about this?
[02:31] <buulian> what about music stuff?
[02:32] <eobanb__> Mathman, i dont think it should make a difference
[02:32] <amphi> jramsey: do what it suggests
[02:32] <cafuego> buulian: what about it?
[02:32] <jramsey> amphi, ok ty
[02:32] <suspect_> wine /home/suspect/cod/codmp.exe
[02:32] <eobanb__> buulian, do you have a specific question?
[02:32] <inthane> From Ubuntu itself, networking is spotty.  Some web pages open, some don't.
[02:32] <suspect_> correct?
[02:32] <DarkMageZ> buulian, the iTunes problem is being fixed atm, it's called songbird
[02:32] <amphi> buulian: yeah, and CAD, and... there's plenty to do ;)
[02:32] <Mathman> eobanb__: well again, when he tried wine before he was talking abouut it not finding some config file.
[02:32] <eobanb__> suspect_, if that's the path, then yes
[02:32] <inthane> Doesn't matter which browser I use.
[02:32] <buulian> great
[02:32] <spoon> inthane I'm running mirc wiht wine. vmware seems a bit overkill. hehe
[02:32] <suspect_> ok.
[02:32] <inthane> Also, couldn't connect to IRC or GAim.
[02:32] <cafuego> buulian: Linux' biggest problem is called "Windows Users".
[02:32] <inthane> Any ideas?
[02:33] <cafuego> "fixing" them before they breed might be the way to go ;-)
[02:33] <amphi> cafuego: heh
[02:33] <inthane> (P.S. This did work before - I will admit that I may have done something, but I'm not sure what.)
[02:33] <diego> hey apt-get says i have no gcc installed but synaptic says it is, and when i try ti compile some file, gcc tries to compile iostream first, and gives LOTS of errors
[02:33] <pschmitt> I installed ubuntu (Breezy Badger) 3 days ago.  Starting 2 days ago, My system will be REALLY flakey for about 15 seconds and then I will lose keyboard control, some x-windows look distorted, but I still have mouse control.  How can I even start to troubleshoot this???
[02:34] <DarkMageZ> cafuego, we are abit too late for that one... they consist of 90%+ of the population... the only solution is to convert those who we can, and kill the rest
[02:34] <eobanb__> diego, sudo apt-get build-essential
[02:34] <heyjoe2> cafuego: i typed sysutils in the command line and nothing happened. what do i do exactly?
[02:34] <diego> ok wait
[02:34] <amphi> pschmitt: proprietary X driver? ;)
[02:34] <inthane> spoon: Running mIRC from Wine would run into the same issues. :P
[02:34] <suspect_> the cod console came up with errors
[02:34] <eobanb__> why would anyone use mIRC on linux?
[02:34] <pschmitt> amphi: "X driver" as in my video card?
[02:34] <diego> invalid option
[02:34] <diego> =S
[02:34] <suspect_> maybe i shouldnt be a gamer
[02:34] <inthane> My guess is it has something to do with DNS or routing, just not sure where to start.
[02:34] <cafuego> heyjoe2: You type cat [dos filename]  | dos2unix > [new filename]
[02:34] <Mathman> suspect_: sweet.  you did it finally it sounds like.
[02:35] <amphi> suspect_: hear hear - be a coder instead
[02:35] <suspect_> maybe i should be a hacker = )
[02:35] <cafuego> heyjoe2: That makes `dos2unix' convert the file and save it as a new one.
[02:35] <suspect_> lol
[02:35] <diego> ??
[02:35] <amphi> pschmitt: yeah
[02:35] <Mathman> suspect_: now ya probably just gotta figure out how to install nvidia drivers or whatever and you're set.  but good luck with that...
[02:35] <suspect_> lol
[02:35] <suspect_> i know a little python
[02:35] <suspect_> its easy
[02:35] <cafuego> 'sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx'
[02:36] <suspect_> whats the nvidia-glx for?
[02:36] <Mathman> cafuego: haha, ya make it sound so easy too.
[02:36] <cafuego> Mathman: Well, it is.
[02:36] <heyjoe2> cafugeo: what should its new filename be?
[02:36] <_Dez> where do i get mplayer codecs?
[02:36] <cafuego> suspect_: nvidia-glx are the nvidia Xorg drivers.
[02:36] <Mathman> cafuego: debatable.  if you've been following this thread at all.
[02:36] <cafuego> !restrictedformats
[02:36] <ubotu> from memory, restrictedformats is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[02:36] <heyjoe2> cafuego: so far ive got sudo cat runFrost.sh dos2unix
[02:36] <suspect_> i dont have any nvidia graphics cards
[02:36] <pschmitt> amphi: I'll try reinstalling from nvidia.com's drivers... hopefully that'll do the trick
[02:36] <pschmitt> :/
[02:37] <amphi> pschmitt: good luck
[02:37] <ubun2> Why does the dvd image link for united states take me to kubuntu dvd images instead of ubuntu ones?
[02:37] <inthane> So no takers on my network issue?
[02:37] <cafuego> heyjoe2: cat runFrost.sh | dos2unix > runFrost2.sh
[02:37] <suspect_> well ima go now
[02:37] <amphi> heyjoe2: you can use a decent text editor to remove the ^Ms
[02:37] <cafuego> Mathman: The only time it tends to not work is when $USER has wrecked their system with an nvidia.com tarball first.
[02:37] <diego> hey apt-get says i have no gcc installed but synaptic says it is, and when i try ti compile some file, gcc tries to compile iostream first, and gives LOTS of errors
[02:37] <amphi> suspect_: go thou and game no more ;)
[02:38] <ramonv> !restricted
[02:38] <ubotu> I guess restricted is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats  Most of the formats listed there can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[02:38] <heyjoe2> cafeugo: i get no such file or directory, i definitely have the frostwire deb file on my desktop though
[02:38] <mxpxpod> does anyone have network-manager working with an airport extreme?
[02:38] <cafuego> heyjoe2: If you have a deb, you can just install that, though.
[02:39] <inthane> Bah, guess I have to break out the install disk and start over. :P
[02:39] <BrownMan> Hey room, I just got the tar file for VNC for Linux x86...can anyone help me install it?
[02:39] <jramsey> ok i forget the cmd to display the kernel version
[02:39] <cafuego> mxpxpod: I did, ut the latest update made network-manager not enable the 'COnnect' button, rendering it useless :-(
[02:39] <cafuego> BrownMan: 'vnc' is prepackaged in Ubuntu. Just apt-get install one.
[02:39] <heyjoe2> cafuego: really, but doesnt hte ubotu bot say different? how do i do it? ive been trying to install this program on and off for weeks
[02:39] <suspect_> ok
[02:39] <Davey> How do I use debsrc's? Can I compile something from scratch using them, with custom flags?
[02:39] <suspect_> bye
[02:40] <cafuego> heyjoe2: 'sudo dpkg -i debfile'
[02:40] <amphi> Davey: yes
[02:40] <mxpxpod> cafuego: the strange thing is, when I select my access point, it doesn't set the card to the correct access point name
[02:40] <mxpxpod> cafuego: it's really annoying
[02:40] <cafuego> mxpxpod: Are you on the absolutely latest kernel?
[02:41] <pschmitt> Does anyone here run Ubuntu for MythTV?  I dont have any serious questions about it, just taking a quick random poll.
[02:41] <mxpxpod> cafuego: 2.6.15-20?
[02:41] <heyjoe2> cafuego: i tried that already and got an error msg
[02:41] <mxpxpod> yup, I'm on it
[02:41] <heyjoe2> cafuego: http://pastebin.com/658820
[02:42] <BrownMan> Cafuego:  I'm a Linux n00b still...do you know what I should type into the terminal to get it?  Is it in the repositories?
[02:42] <cafuego> heyjoe2: You need to run that command in the directory your deb is in. Try 'cd Desktop' first.
[02:43] <ReWT_AxS> SO I installed KDE on my ubuntu. When I went to sessions and chose gnome, it just kept flashing and never loaded. So I ran the uninstall command for kubuntu-desktop and tried reinstalling gnome. It is still flashing....Any way I can fix this? I tried recovery mode but it only flashed too.
[02:43] <cafuego> BrownMan: 'sudo apt-get install vnc4vier'. Or use Synaptic and search for 'vnc'.
[02:43] <BrownMan> Cafuego thanks
[02:43] <cafuego> vnc4viewer
[02:43] <tonynewbie> Anyone good with DVDs?
[02:44] <amphi> tonynewbie: I play 'em like a fiend
[02:44] <zig_> anyone know if the theme properties crash when using xgl/compiz has been fixed?
[02:44] <mxpxpod> cafuego: so, you can't get it to play nice either? I haven't ever been able to get it to work :(
[02:44] <heyjoe2> cafuego: http://pastebin.com/658826
[02:44] <cafuego> zig_: You can't change the compiz theme anyway, why bother with it?
[02:44] <tonynewbie> amphi: My tvtime works great but my DVDs are choppy.
[02:44] <heyjoe2> cafuego: what do i do
[02:45] <amphi> tonynewbie: you have dma enabled on the drive? hdparm will tell you
[02:45] <cafuego> heyjoe2: Run frostwire; it's installed.
[02:45] <tonynewbie> Yes
[02:45] <diego> hey apt-get says i have no gcc installed but synaptic says it is, and when i try ti compile some file, gcc tries to compile iostream first, and gives LOTS of errors
[02:45] <ReWT_AxS> anyone?
[02:45] <heyjoe2> cafuego: when i click on it under app--interent--frostwire, it wont open
[02:46] <heyjoe2> internet even
[02:46] <amphi> tonynewbie: I only use mplayer myself - are you using the optimal video driver for your player?
[02:46] <cafuego> heyjoe2: run 'frostwire' in the commandline,s ee if there are any errors.
[02:46] <yipe> I had that same problem
[02:46] <yipe> with frostwire.... hmmmm, I'll try that too
[02:46] <tonynewbie> amphi:  I'm clueless...
[02:46] <heyjoe2> cafuego: http://pastebin.com/658828
[02:46] <paul_> Is there anyone who knows how to get ethernet file sharing working on Breezy Badger?
[02:46] <amphi> tonynewbie: do you use mplayer?
[02:47] <M3M> Hey everyone - I just installed Ubuntu again and am having trouble getting my nVidia graphics driver to work.  Can anyone point me to a guide that I could work through?
[02:47] <tonynewbie> Xine
[02:47] <diego> M3M there are lots of howtos
[02:47] <josejuan> /#ubuntu-es
[02:47] <tonynewbie> Which I believe is what mplayeruses anyway.\
[02:47] <cafuego> heyjoe2: Looks like sloppy coding on the part of the developers.
[02:47] <green_earz> tonynewbie: http://www.linuxnetmag.com/en/issue7/m7hdparm1.html  http://www.linuxdevcenter.com/pub/a/linux/2000/06/29/hdparm.html
[02:47] <diego> M3M, just search in google it is really easy
[02:47] <amphi> tonynewbie: I don't use it, so no idea really
[02:48] <cafuego> heyjoe2: Not much I can do about that :-(
[02:48] <heyjoe2> cafuego: should i try to reinstall it or what?
[02:48] <amphi> tonynewbie: is it the same whether full screen or not?
[02:48] <cafuego> heyjoe2: Based on those errors, mebbe just uninstall it and look for an alternative.
[02:48] <tonyyarusso> Okay, I might have an issue:  My roommate shut down my laptop by just pulling the plug out (the battery isn't in) because he claims it was making a loud, strange noise.  What logs should I check to see a) what could have caused the noise, b) whether everything was okay with the brute force power cutoff?
[02:49] <DrBanzai> Anybody here use Cedega?  I tried my question in #cedega but nobody is talking in there...
[02:49] <heyjoe2> cafuego: any ideas for an alternative
[02:49] <_Dez> hey would streaming video be better then playing a XVID, on a CPU 266Mhz?
[02:49] <heyjoe2> cafuego: i have the limewire rpm file sitting on my desktop
[02:49] <cafuego> tonyyarusso: Check /lost+found. If there are files, it wasn't happy.
[02:49] <tonyyarusso> cafuego: Okay.
[02:49] <tonyyarusso> cafuego: Nothing.
[02:50] <amphi> tonynewbie: and run smartctl on the drive, in case that's what was making the noise ;)
[02:50] <cafuego> heyjoe2: You could try limewire... 'sudo apt-get install alien; alien <rpmfile>; sudo dpkg -i <resulting limewire deb file>'
[02:50] <cafuego> tonyyarusso: No problem then.
[02:50] <tonyyarusso> At the time I had irssi, Gaim, OpenOffice writer, and maybe firefox running.
[02:50] <tonyyarusso> amphi: Never heard of that...manning smartctl now.
[02:50] <ReWT_AxS> SO I installed KDE on my breezy ubuntu. When I went to sessions and chose gnome, it just kept flashing and never loaded. So I ran the uninstall command for kubuntu-desktop and tried reinstalling gnome. It is still flashing....Any way I can fix this? I tried recovery mode but it only flashed too.
[02:51] <diego> hey apt-get says i have no gcc installed but synaptic says it is, and when i try ti compile some file, gcc tries to compile iostream first, and gives LOTS of errors
[02:51] <amphi> tonyyarusso: I'd do the long test
[02:51] <M3M> diego, thanks I'm reviewing a howto right now.  I may be back w/ more questions.
[02:51] <tonynewbie> amphi: Yes the same full or small.
[02:51] <diego> M3M, ok i'll try to be here
[02:51] <tonyyarusso> amphi: Okay.  (How long should I expect?)
[02:51] <amphi> tonyyarusso: it'll tell you when you run it
[02:51] <tonyyarusso> amphi: cool.
[02:51] <tonynewbie> green_earz: I'm reading those pages now.
[02:52] <jramsey> diego, go to wiki.ubuntu.com search for kernel source and make sure you have the right installs; like build-essential

[02:57] <amphi> tonyyarusso: no idea, I've only run smartctl on ide drives
[02:57] <tonyyarusso> amphi: Okay.
[02:57] <ReWT_AxS> How do I take right justtification off my text input box in mIRC?
[02:57] <pschmitt> is there a default development package that will install make, all the requisit GNU compilers, etc.???

[02:58] <marcky> ok help me out
[02:58] <yipe> THANK YOU!:)
[02:58] <diego> jramsey, ok its installed now what should i do?
[02:58] <pschmitt> Ahh, thx d00d
[02:58] <ReWT_AxS> SO I installed KDE on my breezy ubuntu. When I went to sessions and chose gnome, it just kept flashing and never loaded. So I ran the uninstall command for kubuntu-desktop and tried reinstalling gnome. It is still flashing....Any way I can fix this? I tried recovery mode but it only flashed too.
[02:58] <menisk>  the sbm didnt work
[02:58] <marcky> what's the system networking applet?
[02:58] <amphi> yipe: man dpkg would have told you
[02:58] <cafuego> tonyyarusso: Any chance you've got a serial ata drive? They may or may not be supported by smartctl.
[02:58] <jramsey> marcky, System => Administration => Networking
[02:58] <pschmitt> gotta close xwindows, i might be make for more
[02:58] <tonynewbie> amphi: green_earz When I run hdparm I get this: HDIO_GETGEO failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
[02:58] <jramsey> diego, try gcc -v and see what version
[02:58] <yipe> I was looking at it but it was all in jargon
[02:58] <tonyyarusso> cafuego: The actual drive is IDE, with an s-whatever controller.
[02:58] <yipe> man pages are not helpful to newbies
[02:59] <amphi> tonynewbie: what is the command you typed? does hdparm -i /dev/whatever work?
[02:59] <marcky> wait, there's no menu's yet, there's no UI yet, this is at the beginning of the Ubuntu installation
[02:59] <jramsey> man pages are very helpful
[02:59] <tonyyarusso> amphi: Haven't tried anything yet, just reading the man.
[02:59] <yipe> but not to newbs
[02:59] <heyjoe2> cafuego: what should i do? cd Desktop?
[02:59] <tonyyarusso> bah
[02:59] <tonyyarusso> Dangit
[02:59] <cafuego> heyjoe2: yep
[02:59] <jramsey> i disagree ... the journey of discovery is worth the time
[02:59] <jared_> Question, now
[02:59] <amphi> jramsey: ;)
[02:59] <yipe> especially when they need one tiny bit of info that's buried 6 pages deep into it and has to be assembled from parts
[02:59] <paul_> I am trying to get access to a shared folder on my other machine, which has the same login and password as I am using on this machine. When I go to Places>Network Servers, an authentication box comes up asking for username, domain and password. When I enter them, and click connect, it is always unsuccessful, and the same box comes up again. Can anyone please help me with this?
[03:00] <marcky> wait, there's no menu's yet, there's no UI yet, this is at the beginning of the Ubuntu installation
[03:00] <jared_> I tried to grab xvncviewer, but it says it's already installed.  What's the dealio?  I can't seem to find any vnc software
[03:00] <marcky> see my problem jramsey?
[03:00] <amphi> yipe: true - man pages are more reference than tutorial - man mencoder is a particular favourite of mine
[03:00] <tonynewbie> amphi: I did it without the -i. When I use the -i, it gives me different info.
[03:00] <jramsey> marcky,  u mean the install isnt even done? oopsie
[03:00] <dragoon> hey guys, is there anyway i can get the alsaconf command in breezy ?
[03:00] <ReWT_AxS> jared, do you have your repositories configured?
[03:00] <marcky> haha
[03:00] <jramsey> where is it?
[03:00] <marcky> yup
[03:00] <marcky> it just started
[03:00] <heyjoe2> cafuego: ok great, now ive got a deb on my desktop. so do i do sudo dpkg -i limewire-free_4.11.0-1_i386.deb ?
[03:00] <jared_> Repositories?  Not that I know of!
[03:00] <marcky> I get through the hardware dectection
[03:00] <marcky> and the network hardware detection
[03:00] <amphi> tonynewbie: -I is more helpfule than -i
[03:01] <lutra> heyjoe2: yup
[03:01] <ReWT_AxS> that's why you cant find a vnc package lol
[03:01] <marcky> then it starts configuring the network (dhcp)
[03:01] <ReWT_AxS> !repositories
[03:01] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[03:01] <jramsey> marcky, can u get past it? it wants to get to ubuntu and update itself ... u can probably get the net configured without that (maybe)
[03:01] <marcky> and that's where the whole thing freezes
[03:01] <ReWT_AxS> click those links and read
[03:01] <marcky> I wouln't know how to get past it
[03:01] <jramsey> marcky, how is wireless modem attached, usb?
[03:01] <diego> jramsey, gcc versin 4.0.2 20050808 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.0.1-4ubuntu9)
[03:01] <ReWT_AxS> !tell jared_ about repositories
[03:01] <green_earz> tonynewbie: have a look at your  cat /etc/fstab  for the /dev for the dvd drive  then hdparm -i /dev/something
[03:01] <marcky> nope, ethernet
[03:01] <amphi> tonyyarusso: you get tonynewbie highlights too? ;)
[03:01] <jramsey> diego, how are you building? and what are you building?
[03:02] <diego> wait wait
[03:02] <tonyyarusso> amphi: Yep.  People can't seem to spell my nick, so I have it hilight *tony*
[03:02] <diego> let me try to build again
[03:02] <amphi> tonyyarusso: "don't do that then" ;)
[03:02] <heyjoe2> cafuego: thank u so much! you are one of the most genuinely helpful ppl on here. ive been trying to get this done for weeks
[03:02] <dragoon> hey guys, is there anyway i can get the alsaconf command in breezy ?
[03:02] <marcky> It's ethernet, JR
[03:02] <jramsey> can anyone help marcky? stuck on an install
[03:03] <amphi> dragoon: I wonder who removed it and why...
[03:03] <diego> jramsey, ok thank you it doesnt try to build iostream anymore
[03:03] <tonyyarusso> amphi, cafuego: It doesn't seem to work on my drive :(  Bah.
[03:03] <marcky> HELP *looking helpless*
[03:03] <ReWT_AxS> he has to turn an option off
[03:03] <ReWT_AxS> i forget what it is though
[03:03] <jramsey> diego, yw happy U-ing
[03:03] <LadyNikon> ok

[03:03] <LadyNikon> so anyone know how i can get ubuntu smp kernels?
[03:03] <diego> jramsey, thanks i think , what does that mean? =)
[03:03] <amphi> tonyyarusso: perhaps a newer version?
[03:03] <jramsey> marcky, my cable router (linksys) was recognized out the chute ... enet attached
[03:03] <eternex> helo
[03:03] <jramsey> diego, happy ubuntu-ing
[03:04] <tonyyarusso> amphi: I just got the one from the repos...
[03:04] <diego> jramsey, haha ok thanks
[03:04] <diego> jramsey, happy U-ing to you too
[03:04] <diego> bytes
[03:04] <marcky> Jramsey, it recognises my router, it get's stuck after that
[03:04] <marcky> I suspect it's trying to get an IP
[03:04] <amphi> tonyyarusso: you could look at the site and see whether a current/dev version supports your drive
[03:04] <tonynewbie> amphi: green_earz hdparm -I /dev/dvd
[03:05] <amphi> tonynewbie: and what do you get? /dev/dvd is pointing at the right device?
[03:05] <tonyyarusso> amphi: I'll look.  I'm not even sure what to look for though b/c of the somewhat unconventional setup.
[03:05] <marcky> Hey guys, can anybody help me out here? I'm stuck at the beginning of an install.
[03:05] <marcky> Hey guys, can anybody help me out here? I'm stuck at the beginning of an install.
[03:05] <jramsey> marcky, if ur router is similar to most u can get to it thru a browser; a fixed ip address gets ur to a config page; do u have a (gulp) windows machine or another linux box u can check to see if the port is active ??  i have linksys and not sure about alcatel
[03:06] <marcky> Yep sure, I know how to get to the routers UI
[03:06] <amphi> tonyyarusso: the package is smartmontools, dunno a url for it
[03:06] <marcky> I can reach it through my windows machine
[03:06] <tonynewbie> amphi: ATAPI CD-ROM, with removable media
[03:06] <tonynewbie>         Model Number:       MATSHITADVD-ROM SR-8583
[03:06] <tonynewbie>         Serial Number:
[03:06] <tonynewbie>         Firmware Revision:  D54A
[03:06] <tonynewbie> Etc
[03:06] <jramsey> marcky,  ask _jason  he might be able to help (if he's on)
[03:06] <yipe> okay, pastebin of the errors I got
[03:06] <yipe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12209
[03:07] <marcky> thanks jramsey!
[03:07] <paul_> Does anyone here have a Palm (Zire or Tungsten) interfacing with Breezy Badger? If so, may I ask how did you get it working?
[03:07] <amphi> tonynewbie: try hdparm -D1 /dev/dvd
[03:07] <amphi> tonynewbie: er, -d1
[03:08] <jramsey> marcky, yw
[03:08] <heyjoe2> whats a good programme for converting ogg to mp3
[03:08] <heyjoe2> or ensuring that when i put a cd in it is ripped to mp3
[03:08] <Bambino> Does anyone know why Amarok is not shuffeling for me?
[03:08] <dragoon> heyjoe2: ogg2mp3
[03:08] <lutra> tonynewbie: it may also be /dev/cdrom0
[03:08] <marcky> jramsey, I think he's not around, anyone else you can send me to?
[03:08] <tonyyarusso> Okay, anybody with some good irssi-fu help me out here.  Need to hilight *string* excluding *stringplus*.
[03:08] <tonynewbie> amphi: dma is set to on
[03:08] <yipe> did anyone look at my pastebin?
[03:08] <yipe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12209
[03:09] <amphi> tonynewbie: oh, well
[03:09] <jramsey> marcky, lemme look
[03:09] <tonynewbie> Thanks lutra
[03:09] <heyjoe2> dragoon: where do i get that. its not in synaptic
[03:09] <amphi> tonynewbie: you could try mplayer using the xv driver and see if that works better
[03:09] <marcky> ok
[03:09] <dragoon> heyjoe2: google ?
[03:09] <tonynewbie> amphi: Someone was saying to disable error checking....
[03:10] <paul_> Does anyone use a Palm with Breezy Badger?
[03:10] <heyjoe2> dragoon: ok
[03:11] <lutra> paul_: i use two when i'm typing
[03:11] <yipe> I'd really appreciate if someone would look at that pastbin.... limewire is just SUCH a resource hog
[03:11] <paul_> lutra may I ask how you got Breezy to recognise your Palm?
[03:11] <lutra> yipe: where did you install frostwire too?
[03:12] <yipe> huh?
[03:12] <lutra> paul_: i am just kidding...i was making a bad joke
[03:12] <yipe> I just did sudo dpkg -i
[03:12] <lutra> yipe: it says you typed in frostwire
[03:12] <marcky> Jramsey: Anything?
[03:12] <pvd2006> hmm
[03:12] <pvd2006> frostwire, is that the alternative to limewire?
[03:13] <reverb> Hi there everybody...
[03:13] <yipe> yes, this was after installation
[03:13] <yipe> yes it is
[03:13] <pvd2006> Does it use less resources than limweire?
[03:13] <lutra> yipe: dpkg -s frostwire
[03:13] <reverb> I got some diffucult question about the 'screen' command...
[03:13] <heyjoe2> is there a media player on linux that, like media player does everything, plays audio/video, allows you to rip, burn etc
[03:13] <jramsey> marcky, go check http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/f-101-p-7.html
[03:13] <jared_> I did what it said, but still I have no vncviewer.  Any extra info?
[03:13] <jramsey> and poke around
[03:13] <lutra> yipe: i lie...dpkg -L frostwire
[03:13] <digen> can anyone give me the repos needed for installing azureus
[03:13] <jramsey> marcky, you may find something there
[03:13] <pvd2006> HeyJoe, I dont know about all that but VLC player and mplayer are good.
[03:14] <yipe> okay.... what did that just do?
[03:14] <Kr0ntab> sup folks
[03:14] <lutra> yipe: the L should show you all the files in frostwire.deb
[03:14] <heyjoe2> pvd2006: im specifically looking for ripping/burning functions
[03:14] <heyjoe2> and conversion from ogg to mp3
[03:14] <lutra> lutra: from there you should be able to locate the executable file
[03:14] <pvd2006> azureus, is a resource hog for just using torrents, but you can download it from their site.
[03:15] <dragoon> torrentflux ftw
[03:15] <digen> pvd2006,any other suggestions then??
[03:15] <Bobrownik> why would you convert ogg to mp3?  ...mp3 player?
[03:15] <dragoon> get a decent mp3 player
[03:15] <green_earz> reverb: http://www.hn2.org/docs/tbg/screen.html
[03:15] <dragoon> that can play ogg
[03:15] <dragoon> :p
[03:15] <HedgeMage> Bobrownik: that's why my music player does ogg natively
[03:15] <pvd2006> digen, the gnome-torrent works just fine, or maybe bit torrent like lutra said.
[03:15] <HedgeMage> Bobrownik: no mp3 here
[03:15] <yipe> I don't see any files with a .exe after them
[03:15] <dragoon> ...
[03:16] <digen> pvd2006,cool will check it out.thanks
[03:16] <paul_> Does anyone here know how to configure my Breezy Badger system to be able to switch between English and Japanese keyboard input, (both using a US keyboard)?
[03:16] <lutra> doh....
[03:16] <reverb> green_earz: well... its a more tricky question than that... i got i working and know how to use it.
[03:16] <pvd2006> np;)
[03:16] <lutra> yipe: paste the output on pastebin
[03:16] <Bobrownik> i like ogg a lot better then mp3 myself
[03:16] <lutra> no .exe in linux btw
[03:16] <dragoon> wtf would linux use an exe yipe
[03:16] <pvd2006> yipe, .exe is only for windows
[03:16] <heyjoe2> Bobrownik: mp3 player exactly
[03:17] <Bobrownik> but if your mp3 player doesnt play ogg then yeah m you gotto conert
[03:17] <yipe> well.... what's the equivalent?
[03:17] <jramsey> paul_, u try the language selector in system/admin?
[03:17] <heyjoe2> bobrownik: any ideas for some good converting progs
[03:17] <sethk> yipe, file names have no magical significance in real operating systems such as linux or unix
[03:17] <dragoon> heyjoe2: i already told you, ogg2mp3
[03:17] <yipe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12210
[03:18] <yipe> surely the extension means SOMETHING?!!?
[03:18] <tonyyarusso> yipe: No file extension, for instance everything in /usr/bin/
[03:18] <sethk> yipe, no, nothing
[03:18] <sethk> yipe, and it should not.
[03:18] <yipe> that makes no sense to me...
[03:18] <nopea> anybody here happen to know how to move mail from Thunderbird on Windows to Thunder on Linux?
[03:18] <pvd2006> linux doesnt have to have extensions for binary files, usually you just set that a file is an executable file with chmod a+x (x=executable)and if the file is executable it will run fine just by typing the file name.
[03:18] <sethk> yipe, the reason for having extensions in windows is the the early primitive versions had a file system with no concept of file attributes
[03:18] <tonyyarusso> nopea: Yes.  You just have to transfer the profile directory structure.
[03:19] <sethk> yipe, so the only way to make a file into a type was to use it's name
[03:19] <lutra> and  cause windows is stupid
[03:19] <yipe> and now I see why it's so damn difficult to set certain file types to open in certain programs
[03:19] <sethk> yipe, but that was eliminated in other operating systems around 1965
[03:19] <sethk> yipe, it's not
[03:19] <Bobrownik> i dont know of any , im a newb to linux
[03:19] <marcky> thanks jramsey!
[03:19] <sethk> yipe, it isn't difficult at all, it just isn't done by name
[03:19] <nopea> tonyyarusso, as is just copy it over?
[03:19] <paul_> jramsey I may have been successful in configuring it, but I can't tell because I don't know how to cause the system to switch between the two keyboard input modes.. Any idea how?
[03:19] <jramsey> marcky, that help? there seems to be some relevant stuff
[03:19] <sethk> yipe, web browser type programs don't use file names anyway, they use an attribute in html
[03:19] <heyjoe2> dragoon: how do u install it
[03:20] <sethk> yipe, even in windows these days the name is not significant for most programs
[03:20] <lutra> heyjoe2: apt-cache search ogg2mp3
[03:20] <nopea> I am guessing same would go for any Firefox profiles
[03:20] <dragoon> heyjoe2: compile it....
[03:20] <dragoon> *bangs head on table*
[03:21] <tonyyarusso> nopea: Correct.
[03:21] <heyjoe2> dragoon: what do you perceive to be the underlying causes of the south china sea conflict?
[03:21] <simongo> fuckers
[03:21] <nopea> tonyyarusso, cheers
[03:21] <jramsey> paul_, i am not sure if KMFL works with ubuntu ... hold on lemme see if i can find out; it is a remapper on the fly
[03:21] <tonyyarusso> nopea: That enough for you or would you like file paths?
[03:21] <dragoon> ubuntu users are wankers
[03:22] <heyjoe2> dragoon: why do i ask such a seemingly irrelevant question? because of the assumptions, supercillious arrogance of some support ppl on this channel
[03:22] <jpoa> Hi there!
[03:22] <nopea> tonyyarusso, if you have the time sure! thanks
[03:22] <paul_> jramsey thankyou very much.
[03:23] <jramsey> paul_, yw .. did that help?
[03:23] <paul_> jramsey no
[03:23] <loki505maese> can any body tell me wat is an aternitive way to delete stuff offf your computer
[03:23] <jramsey> paul_, theres a deb pkg for ubuntu here => http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=130915&package_id=143535&release_id=353015
[03:23] <paul_> jramsey not yet. I mean thanks for finding out
[03:23] <jpoa> Need some help! Im trying to set up a server to share an internet connection. I've followed the how-to on the docs, but i get no dhcp offer to the clients. I therefore installed dhcp3-server and now i have ip on the clients and net on the server, but NO internet on the clients! HelP! P
[03:23] <loki505maese> cause i dont know where the recycl bin went
[03:23] <yipe> so, did anyone look at that pastebin?
[03:23] <jadaz87> does anyone know of a music player like rhythmbox but has id3 tag editting?
[03:24] <jramsey> paul_, u ok blazing a trail and trying to install it?
[03:24] <Cooner750_> Anyone know of a good free FTP server? (Easily configured)
[03:24] <yipe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/12210
[03:24] <Stormx2> is there a good command line tool to convert between image formats?
[03:24] <ReWT_AxS> Beep Media PLayer
[03:24] <Stormx2> jadaz87: Not sure, amaroK?
[03:25] <Stormx2> ReWT_AxS: Thats not like rhythmbox
[03:25] <green_earz> Cooner750_: proftpd
[03:25] <pvd2006> to install a .deb file its just dpkg -i filename right
[03:25] <pvd2006> ?>
[03:25] <paul_> jramsey I am not sure. I am a new linux user. hopefully I won't run into too many problems installing a package. I will have to try and see.
[03:25] <Stormx2> pvd2006: yeah, but sudo
[03:25] <pvd2006> yeah
[03:25] <pvd2006> I just did it to frostwire, didnt seem to work correctly, hmmm.
[03:25] <jramsey> paul_, it seems like it's a problem that has been solved; so u should be ok after its installed
[03:25] <yipe> I'm trying to get help with the same thing pvd2006
[03:26] <yipe> and the guy who was helping me just left:(
[03:26] <pvd2006> Yipe, if I figure it out ill let you know
[03:26] <yipe> thank you
[03:27] <tonyyarusso> nopea: (iirc) Copy C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\somenonsense4325.default\ to ~/.mozilla-thunderbird/blahblah123.default/
[03:27] <yipe> someday I'll be super smart and I'll be able to switch to slackware...
[03:27] <jramsey> paul_, did u try changing the keyboard layout in keyboard preferences? japan is there
[03:27] <yipe> SOMEDAY
[03:28] <nopea> tonyyarusso, cheers!
[03:28] <tonyyarusso> nopea: Or, if you're like me and already have another profile on Linux, rename it to .old1 instead of .default.  Enjoy!
[03:28] <Stormx2> yipe: XD
[03:28] <nopea> wish there was a moxbackup program that could back up to a linux readable file
[03:28] <Cooner750_> How do I configure proftpd?
[03:28] <pvd2006> How can you output what a shell script is doing into a log file?
[03:29] <pvd2006> not what it shows on the command line, but what its doing behind the scenes
[03:29] <paul_> jramsey I am trying it now... So to switch between them, is there some shortcut key?
[03:29] <jpoa> anyone?
[03:29] <ReWT_AxS> everytime i try to open terminal it closes
[03:29] <tonyyarusso> So, I followed !ntfs to mount /windows user-accessible, and now it shows up with an icon on my desktop when mounted.  Thing is, none of my other partitions do that.  Why?  (And how can I make it go away, but still have CD-ROMs and such show up?)
[03:30] <victorluso> you speek spanish
[03:30] <yipe> !es
[03:30] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[03:30] <sethk> victorluso, speak, even
[03:30] <paul_> jramsey I added Japanese to the keyboard layout list, and ticked the box for that, but I am still typing in English, so am i correct in assuming that it was not successful?
[03:30] <tonyyarusso> Stormx2: Imagemagick I think?  Should have a convert tool of some sort.
[03:31] <Stormx2> tonyyarusso: ok cool
[03:31] <victorluso> can I speek spanish
[03:31] <victorluso> si?????????
[03:31] <yipe> sure, all you want
[03:31] <yipe> but it won't do you much good in here
[03:31] <sethk> victorluso, use the spanish channel for spanish
[03:31] <victorluso> really
[03:31] <Stormx2> tonyyarusso: How do I launch it?
