[09:54] <frolle> I am getting this error when i try to conncet to mysql: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
[09:55] <sykofox> how do i install nvidia driver ?
[09:55] <tonsofpcs> bad password, frolle
[09:55] <preaction> !nvidia | sykofox
[09:55] <frolle> tonsofpcs: i set no password :)
[09:55] <ubotu> sykofox: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:55] <sykofox> cheers
[09:55] <Flannel> frolle: you need to setup a root password for your mysql root user.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#head-39085275bc28194cca77d021ec362ff3003b10bc
[09:56] <preaction> frolle: you need to use mysqladmin to set a password for root
[09:56] <bill> ok........
[09:56] <bill> see the problem with all these community docs, i dont know what any of them mean...
[09:57] <perlmonkey> true
[09:57] <snoops> then the easiest solution is to go down to a store and get a blank cd
[09:57] <bill> if i did know what any of it meant, i probably wouldnt need to look at them in the first place
[09:57] <snoops> so you can burn the iso as a cd image and boot off it
[09:57] <perlmonkey> ive been running ubuntu for 2-3 weeks now
[09:58] <bill> oh, im friggan stupid, i got a cd-rw somewhere.... ive never thought to just erase the damn thing....
[09:58] <perlmonkey> gnome seems much slower than debian, but on the positive side alot of stuff works out of the box better
[09:58] <Flannel> bill: scroll down to where it says "Installation without a cD" and then look at the descriptions and see what hardware/stuff you have (and what they look like they need), and then see if that method works for you.
[09:59] <ivx> gnome is slower than debian? okay....
[09:59] <frolle> preaction: i use the command mysql -u root to try setting up the pass but still no access
[09:59] <perlmonkey> gnome on Ubuntu is noticeably slower than gnome on Debian
[09:59] <bill> k
[10:00] <bill> ok, now i cant find my cd-rw...
[10:00] <preaction> frolle: as i said, you must use mysqladmin. type "man mysqladmin" and look for "setpassword"
[10:00] <perlmonkey> Ubuntu's gnome seems to be a little bloated
[10:00] <mrynit> i need to remove some partions and move my ubuntu partion do a different one all on the same harddrive. i know how to do the partioning but what else do i need to do to make use my system will boot? do i need to tell linux where to look on boot besides grub?
[10:00] <perlmonkey> but I have no problems running xfce4 under Ubuntu
[10:00] <ivx> perlmoney, so apt-get remove what you don't want
[10:00] <perlmonkey> ok
[10:00] <HowardTheCoward> apt-get remove ubuntu :)
[10:00] <bill> well, there is the install fromwindows...
[10:00] <perlmonkey> ubuntu looks promising so far
[10:01] <ivx> perlmoney, debian has a little bit newer of packages, so they are a little bit bigger, more feature
[10:01] <ivx> i mean ubuntu is newer
[10:01] <perlmonkey> ya
[10:01] <bill> but i tried that, like 50 times, along with like 5 other things, i cant get it to work
[10:01] <omegacenti> Is it still a good idea to have twice as much swap as ram?
[10:01] <bill> it always asks me for the cd during instalation
[10:01] <perlmonkey> ubuntu experience under gnome seems to be closer to windows
[10:01] <perlmonkey> its definitely easier to use and more user friendly than debian
[10:01] <snoops> omegacenti if you have 2gig of ram, having a 4gig swap is ridiculous
[10:01] <frolle> preaction: i am getting the same error..
[10:01] <preaction> omegacenti: depends on how much ram you have, but yes. you may also look at changing your "swappiness" value
[10:02] <omegacenti> snoops: I have 1 gig.
[10:02] <bill> if i knew what the commands all meant, then i could just change them to what i want, everything would be fine, and all that mess... but yeah
[10:02] <nathanj> when i was installing ubuntu i made a storage partition (/media/storage) it seems to be mounted but i want to make it rw accessiable to all users, how do i do that?
[10:02] <snoops> I'd go with a 1gig swap then omegacenti
[10:02] <ivx> perlmonkey, that's the idea, but don't forget where ubuntu came from
[10:02] <omegacenti> preaction: yeah I read that in Rute.. just wondering if still true.
[10:02] <perlmonkey> and dont forget where debian came from too ;-)
[10:03] <omegacenti> Snoops I am still having issues with suspend/hibernate though. Its irritating so I am reading every linux document I can get my hands on.
[10:03] <bill> (hd0,0)      <---what is that.... my c drive or just the whole hard drive?
[10:03] <perlmonkey> i did consider running freebsd before i decided to go with ubuntu
[10:03] <ivx> perlmonkey, you mean mostly GNU?
[10:03] <DemonSamurai> what can i do with this help pls Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[10:03] <omegacenti> snoops: I think I mght have a degree in Linux certification by the time I am done.

[10:05] <NNate> anyone know how i can get a verizon usb720 evdo modem to work on ubuntu 7.04?  maybe ndis wrapper?
[10:05] <sykofox> any clues on how to get 8800gtx working with ubuntu ?
[10:05] <ikonia> moshe: follow the guides on help.ubuntu.com
[10:05] <bill> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows   im reading this thing here
[10:05] <ikonia> moshe: those guides are out of date
[10:05] <bill> thx mrynit
[10:06] <moshe> thanks
[10:06] <DemonSamurai> ermmm can i get some help with this Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[10:06] <ikonia> moshe: apache2-ssl-certificate is part of the apache-ssl package
[10:06] <ivx> sykofox, see if you got system>admin?restricted drviers
[10:06] <bill> reading the netboot aproach on that doc there
[10:06] <Python1320> Trying to put my voodoo working but dont know the BusID --- My lspci is outputting "00:0e.0 Multimedia video controlle....." what should I put to Xorg BusID?
[10:06] <bill> and every time i go into there and boot it up with grub, i get "file not found"
[10:07] <bill> ive tripple checked all the things, and i cant figue it out
[10:07] <sykofox> ivx, i can't even do anything in ubuntu, nothing works, x fails to start n all hell breaks loose =p
[10:07] <perlmonkey> how do I kill my process which refuses to die
[10:07] <andrewss> Hi, I accidentally deleted /etc/init.d/screen and apt-get --reinstall screen doesn't create that file <-- any ideeas ?
[10:07] <sykofox> can't access terminal
[10:07] <ivx> skyofox, has it everworked?
[10:07] <ikonia> perlmonkey: how are you killing it ?
[10:07] <sykofox> first time trying
[10:07] <Flannel> moshe: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/serverguide/C/httpd.html
[10:07] <bill> right after it tries to load "kernel   (hd0,0)/boot/linux vga=normal ramdisk_size=14972 root=/dev/rd/0 rw --" it says file not found, not sure wtf is goin on
[10:07] <Flannel> andrewss: remove with --purge then install again
[10:07] <omegacenti> Is it a good idea for a single user type setup to do multiple partions for things like /usr /boot swap and things?
[10:08] <ikonia> bill don't use the phrase "wtf"
[10:08] <frolle> Flannel: any ideas to my problem?
[10:08] <ivx> skyofox, will i tlet you boot live cd, will it boot with out x (does it give you login promt)
[10:08] <bill> k
[10:08] <NNate> anyone know how to get any of the broadband cellular modems to work under ubuntu?
[10:08] <ikonia> omegacenti: overkill
[10:08] <omegacenti> ikonia: thanks.
[10:08] <Flannel> bill: I imagine /boot/linux isn't the kernel.  It's most likely much longer than that
[10:08] <Myrtti> omegacenti: / and /home
[10:09] <andrewss> Flannel: it say it wants to remove ubuntu-desktop ...
[10:09] <Frogzoo> NNate: if you can use pppd it's just as a serial modem
[10:09] <omegacenti> Myrtti: I see. I will take this into consideration. However, I am not sure how much space I should give to /
[10:09] <Flannel> andrewss: that's fine.  ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage.  When you reinstall, reinstall ubuntu-desktop as well.
[10:09] <sykofox> ivx, it comes up with a blue screen saying x failed to start. then it takes me back to the boot screen where i can type things but nothing works
[10:09] <bill> flannel: thats where it tells me to put the "linux" file that i downloaded
[10:09] <NNate> do i need to load any drivers to get it to work?  maybe with ndis wrapper?
[10:09] <bill> i put em all into the directories it tels me, and it still never works out right
[10:10] <Memrix> Need some help with aSpell
[10:10] <bill> can i somehow mount the iso during the boot
[10:10] <Myrtti> omegacenti: not less than 8, preferably more
[10:10] <Python1320> How to get the correct busid for my video card?
[10:10] <omegacenti> Myrtti: 8 gigs?
[10:10] <Myrtti> omegacenti: yeah
[10:10] <perlmonkey> is there a way to force a process to die which refuses to die
[10:10] <bill> with grub, so its not looking for the cd in the cd drive while i install?
[10:10] <omegacenti> Myrtti: how many did you give to /
[10:11] <ikonia> perlmonkey: how are you killing it ?
[10:11] <Myrtti> 7.4, but I'm on a laptop that has dualboot and too tiny harddrvie
[10:11] <perlmonkey> hi Myrtti
[10:11] <mrynit> i need to move my install partion to a different partion on my harddrive. i know how to do the partioning but do i need to change any system files so ubuntu will boot?
[10:11] <perlmonkey> I'm on a laptop which has 6GB and dual boot
[10:11] <ikonia> myrtti could you please ask perlmonkey to remove my from ignore if he wants help
[10:11] <andrewss> Flannel: thanks, worked
[10:12] <perlmonkey> I use grub to dual boot
[10:12] <HowardTheCoward> Myrtti: have you considered to use some lightweight alternatives to big hdd space-consuming apps?
[10:12] <bill> This procedure should be possible using a disk image, but it may be necessary to use a different kernel and pass some special argument in menu.lst to tell it to boot from the CD image (Has been achieved using Knoppix).
[10:12] <NNate> one more question, i have an HP dv8000 laptop with 2 sata hdds with ubuntu 6.10 loaded on the second drive but if I choose to boot from that drive in the bios, ubuntu hangs at the load screen but if i switch drives it works perfectly, any thoughts?
[10:12] <Flannel> mrynit: you'll need to update some stuff in GRUB, both stage one and two.  (two is menu.lst, one is reinstalling grub in the MBR)
[10:12] <novato_br> how can I get portuguese dictionary on Ubuntu?
[10:12] <Myrtti> HowardTheCoward: sure, but I'm company internal helpdesk and I need to run the same as my clients
[10:12] <bill> ^^that would help me maybe if it told me what "argument" to use
[10:13] <mrynit> Flannel, grub will still be on the MBR. i am not erasing it
[10:13] <HowardTheCoward> Myrtti: it's easy then, tell your boss to give you a better laptop
[10:13] <perlmonkey> Myrtti: what I did was install xfce4 and used nfs to mount my /home on a raid, the laptop now runs 10x faster
[10:13] <Flannel> mrynit: No, but you need to point it to your new HDD
[10:13] <mrynit> i know i nee to change grub for the menu
[10:14] <mrynit> Flannel, i am using the same harddrive. im just removing 2 partions and moving ubuntu's partion to a new one
[10:14] <bill> ok, well, can somebody tell me what i need to type in to get my windows partition mounted?
[10:14] <moshe> Flannel: i've actually followed https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/server/C/httpd.html, but it still wasn't exact, had to change few things before it worked
[10:14] <perlmonkey> Mrynit you can easily edit grub menu to make your partition different, just press E on grub menu
[10:14] <Flannel> mrynit: are you moving /boot?
[10:14] <bill> i think its been about 6 years since i mounted a windows partition in linux
[10:15] <mrynit> Flannel, yes i am moving the entire file system
[10:15] <mrynit> i have 200mb free in this partion. i need more space
[10:15] <perlmonkey> apt-get clean
[10:15] <Flannel> mrynit: Your stage 1 (in MBR) points to /boot, to get to stage 2 (with your menu.lst).  You need to tell the stuff in the MBR to look at the new drive for /boot
[10:16] <mrynit> Flannel, ok i get it now so i DO need to install grub after i move things
[10:16] <UnhandledExcepti> hi !
[10:16] <mrynit> Flannel, idk about stage 1/2
[10:16] <Flannel> reinstall grub, yes.  To the same place it is currently, but pointing to the new drive.  This is done through... well, first link:

[10:18] <mrynit> k
[10:18] <Flannel> mrynit: do the "with overwriting windows bootloader" not the keeping
[10:18] <mrynit> Flannel, do i need to change my /etc/fstab ?
[10:18] <DemonSamurai> how can i open this  /etc/X11/xorg.conf i mean i need the command pls .....
[10:18] <ikonia> DemonSamurai: use a text editor

[10:19] <sldkfj> gksudo gedit
[10:19] <sldkfj> gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:19] <Flannel> mrynit: mrynit most likely not, no.  Unless you're moving the order of the partitions (or making more, or whatnot)
[10:19] <datou> what are you talking about?
[10:19] <perlmonkey> hehe
[10:19] <mrynit> Flannel, yes i am
[10:19] <ikonia> datou: join the channel #xchat and they will help you learn how to use xchat
[10:20] <Flannel> mrynit: then yeah, you'll probably need to shuffle stuff in your fstab
[10:20] <sivaji2009> my cpu speed is 1.67GHZ but "cat /proc/cpuinfo" says  only 1.004GHZ

[10:31] <hawk> perlmonkey: ps ax | grep firefox-bin, what does the status column say?
[10:31] <novato_br> no, hawk
[10:32] <hawk> novato_br: Then I didn't quite understand what you were asking...
[10:32] <novato_br> Bassetts , i want to make iso of my ubuntu instalation on my hard disk
[10:32] <perlmonkey> 5709 ?        Dsl    0:34 /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin
[10:32] <Bassetts> novato_br, so you want to make a backup
[10:32] <novato_br> i want make DVD image of my ubuntu instalation
[10:32] <novato_br> yep
[10:32] <novato_br> backup of my instalation
[10:33] <hawk> perlmonkey: Ok... status is D, then
[10:33] <novato_br> Bassetts,  how can i get backup?
[10:33] <perlmonkey> hawk whats it mean
[10:33] <ikonia> perlmonkey: how are you trying to kill it
[10:33] <Bassetts> perlmonkey, have you tried using sudo to kill it?
[10:33] <perlmonkey> ya
[10:33] <Bassetts> perlmonkey, e.g. sudo kill 5709
[10:33] <hawk> perlmonkey: Well, D is that it's in uninterruptible sleep..
[10:34] <DemonSamurai> zz how can i modify xorg.conf when i open it from terminal and all i get is a blank page?
[10:34] <perlmonkey> only a reboot will shift it?
[10:34] <Bassetts> DemonSamurai, you must of typed the filename wrong
[10:34] <hawk> perlmonkey: Is there any obvious thing that would cause it to get stuck doing some IO or something?
[10:34] <hawk> perlmonkey: Any sort of disk problems? Anything?
[10:34] <DemonSamurai> gksudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[10:34] <novato_br> how can I do a backup about my ubuntu instalation on DVD ?
[10:35] <Bassetts> DemonSamurai, xorg.conf is at /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:35] <perlmonkey> hawk: i'm constantly having problems with firefox (and many other network apps), i think it's either related to permission issue or networking, I use a mounted /home/user folder over nfs
[10:35] <Bassetts> ubuntu is case sensitive so x11 is not X11
[10:37] <nooga> hi
[10:37] <hawk> perlmonkey: I guess it could be an issue with firefox having issues with having it's settings/bookmarks/cache/... on that NFS mount, then... I mean, I see no real reason why it would cause problems as long as the connection to the NFS server is reliable and there is free space there
[10:38] <nooga> i've got dapper 6.06 LTS, and after installing Compiz/XGL X does not want to start and tells me something like "couldn't open RGB_DB"
[10:39] <nooga> after a restart, cuz earlier Compiz worked and everything was fine
[10:39] <perlmonkey> hawk: aye I think you are right

[10:47] <deep> (8
[10:47] <logmein> probably some kid got hold of his keyboard
[10:47] <deep> haha (:
[10:48] <CheshireViking> maybe they've got problems with their keyboard, only a couple of keys work :)
[10:48] <necro> haha
[10:48] <tyt> hi!!
[10:49] <tyt> does Ubuntu has any softwares Like FireWorks?
[10:49] <gordonjcp> CheshireViking: maybe they've got a cat
[10:49] <logmein> tyt: you want a fireworks screensaver?
[10:49] <sldkfj> what's fireworks?
[10:49] <CheshireViking> gordonjcp, :)
[10:49] <tyt> sorry it's a Software called Fileworks

[10:50] <nathanj> when i was installing ubuntu i made a storage partition (/media/storage) it seems to be mounted but i want to make it rw accessiable to all users, how do i do that?
[10:50] <tyt> thank i try
[10:50] <frolle> nathanj: sudo chown username:username /media/storage
[10:50] <nathanj> frolle what about for all users?
[10:51] <tyt> wine can't run FireWorks
[10:51] <frolle> nathanj: good question..
[10:51] <noiesmo> tyt, crossover office can i thinks
[10:51] <logmein> tyt: you might want to read up on linux file permissions and try something like truecrypt
[10:52] <logmein> tyt: as for other things there are many syslog options for logging
[10:53] <tyt> When i run wine?
[10:53] <noiesmo> nathanj, for all users use group users and make sure all users are members of group users
[10:53] <nathanj> noiesmo ta :D
[10:53] <logmein> tyt: no truecrypt is native linux software and syslog is built into your system
[10:54] <noiesmo> nathanj, then also set the permissions with chmod 775 so owner and group can read write execte and world can read and execute
[10:54] <iDN> Hi, I have a problem...
[10:54] <tyt> Maybe i should discard way on windows!!
[10:54] <nathanj> noiesmo ta
[10:54] <noiesmo> nathanj, np
[10:54] <gerry> i am stalking alan pope
[10:55] <logmein> tyt: most of what your asking for is already built into linux systems
[10:55] <gerry> is he popey?
[10:55] <gerry> doesanone know?
[10:55] <gerry> does anyone know
[10:55] <gerry> i am getting a new keyboard
[10:55] <tyt> ??realy!
[10:56] <logmein> tyt: perhaps what your looking for is some sort of automated samba/nfs setup
[10:56] <iDN> I recently installed Enemy Territory. Every thing works fine except when I press a keyboard combination (which I don't know what it is), the player stuck in one direction. Any help?
[10:56] <logmein> iDN: dude that game is awesome, isn't 2.60 the latest linux version?
[10:56] <popey> *ding*
[10:56] <iDN> Yes.
[10:56] <tyt> and what about ATI drivers?
[10:56] <iDN> 260b, to be exact.
[10:56] <logmein> iDN: I've never experienced that problem myself, which key is it?
[10:57] <tyt> I can't turn on the desktop effect
[10:57] <iDN> I think it's something with CAPSLOCK.
[10:57] <logmein> tyt: ATI drivers suck, you can try the drivers in the repository or default open source ones, perhaps mesa
[10:57] <tyt> but it runing when i uninstall the ATI drivers
[10:58] <logmein> tyt: do you have direct rendering working?
[10:58] <crdlb> tyt, what video card do you have?
[10:58] <tyt> i'm not sure,how can i see?
[10:58] <tyt> ATI x300
[10:58] <logmein> tyt: lspci
[10:59] <crdlb> tyt, so desktop effects work with the ati driver disabled?
[10:59] <logmein> tyt: tyt: glxinfo | grep rendering
[10:59] <tyt> yes!
[10:59] <crdlb> then what's the problem? :)
[10:59] <cotyrothery> should i upgrade my pc or buy a new one?
[10:59] <logmein> tyt: wow your lucky open rendering out of the box
[11:00] <cotyrothery> im not sure what to do
[11:00] <tyt> under the driver ,turn on effect ,computer down!!
[11:00] <iDN> Thx everybody, I think I might have just solve it.
[11:00] <HowardTheCoward> cotyrothery: how old is it?
[11:00] <cotyrothery> HowardTheCoward: not sure
[11:00] <crdlb> tyt, yes that's because the proprietary driver is terrible
[11:00] <cotyrothery> HowardTheCoward: It only has a 256 mb ram chip
[11:00] <crdlb> tyt, if you want it to work under that driver, you'd have to set up Xgl
[11:00] <logmein> tyt: I think ATI released their driver as a joke because it usually never works
[11:00] <cotyrothery> it has a 2.20 ghz proccessor
[11:00] <HowardTheCoward> cotyrothery: if it's older than three years, i'd get a new one
[11:00] <tyt> so ,i just uninstall the driver
[11:01] <cotyrothery> well im sure it is
[11:01] <logmein> tyt: yeah if it doesn't work go ahead
[11:01] <tyt> but nvidia can running well
[11:01] <chohmann> How do I connect to a Juniper NetScreen VPN from Ubuntu?
[11:01] <logmein> tyt: nvidia and intel are good at graphics cards
[11:01] <cotyrothery> i was going to buy a dell xps
[11:01] <cotyrothery> should i
[11:01] <cotyrothery> i bet ubuntu would run great on it
[11:01] <tyt> thank you very much ,i learn so much
[11:01] <HowardTheCoward> cotyrothery: i think nowadays one shall aim for a 64-bit processor and pci-express on the motherboard at least
[11:02] <mm2000> hello. is it hard to create a deb-file of for instance a web-application written in php?
[11:02] <cotyrothery> yea i know
[11:02] <cotyrothery> so should i go with a dell xps
[11:02] <HowardTheCoward> mm2000: why would you do that?
[11:02] <cotyrothery> for 1000 dollors
[11:02] <Raiders32> I just received warnings about unauthenticated updates from Update Manager.  These update are "xscreensave-data" and "xscreensaver-gl".  These updates good/bad.  How do you cancel them?
[11:03] <mm2000> HowardTheCoward: i would like to explore how i can simplify installation of a certain script
[11:03] <yo2k> mm2000: you can compress it
[11:04] <mm2000> HowardTheCoward: the script depends on mysql, php, gd, freetype, ... (and so on)
[11:04] <logmein> Raiders32: I don't recall any updates involving the screensaver, I would suggest unmarking that and continuing with update until you find out solution
[11:05] <Raiders32> logmein:  I have unchecked them several times but the update notification won't go away
[11:05] <sramm> Hi All,
[11:06] <logmein> Raiders32: is that a problem?
[11:06] <sramm> is there a way to disable the framebuffer without recompiling the kernel?
[11:06] <logmein> sramm: go into grubs menu.lst file use locate to find it, settings are there I think
[11:06] <HowardTheCoward> mm2000: web apps have their gothchas, suppose you have like 1000 virtual hosts on a server, would it make sense to install your app to all of those from a debian package?
[11:06] <erUSUL> Raiders32: screensaver was updated recently... http://lwn.net/Articles/238078/
[11:06] <qiyong> hi all, where to store the route info?
[11:07] <Raiders32> logmein:  I think it is.  This is the first time I encountered this problem
[11:07] <logmein> erUSUL: sorry perhaps my brother updated it and not me so didn't notice
[11:07] <tyt> logmein:where can i see the arp table?
[11:07] <HowardTheCoward> tyt: man arp
[11:07] <Raiders32> erUSUL:  thanks.  I'll check it out
[11:07] <tyt> !!thanks!
[11:07] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[11:08] <logmein> tyt: arp -a
[11:08] <HowardTheCoward> logmein: do you think he'll read the manpage after what you've done? :)
[11:08] <erUSUL> Raiders32: you should check why they appear as unauthentificated
[11:08] <tyt> yes i see!
[11:08] <mm2000> HowardTheCoward: how about phpmyadmin then?
[11:08] <logmein> HowardTheCoward: hope he doesn't manpages suck just look up a guide on google or read rutebook
[11:09] <Raiders32> erUSUL:  why would Update Manager tell me they are unauthenicated updates?
[11:09] <HowardTheCoward> logmein: honestly, your quote deserves bash.org
[11:09] <logmein> Raider32: perhaps your sources list is incorrect or you do not possess the gpg keys
[11:10] <logmein> HowardTheCoward: what of it?
[11:10] <sramm> logmein: no surry .. nothing found there... :c(
[11:10] <logmein> sramm: umm who are you?
[11:10] <HowardTheCoward> logmein: the part about manpages
[11:11] <hylje> dirty people
[11:11] <logmein> sramm: oh yeah frame buffering.. umm no clue myself
[11:11] <CyberMad> how to resize font size on PuTTY?
[11:11] <nooga> what should I do if i see  error: /etc/X11/X is not executable
[11:11] <nooga> ?
[11:11] <yo2k> how make a virtual/aliases nic ?
[11:11] <sramm> someone here who knows how to disable frame buffering ?
[11:13] <HowardTheCoward> yo2k: man ifconfig
[11:14] <sldkfj> sramm, I think I remember there was an entry to select or not select when going through the command   dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:14] <omegacenti> Is this why ctl-alt-delete doesn't work in linux?
[11:14] <omegacenti>  /proc/sys/kernel/ctrl-alt-del      This  file controls the handling of Ctrl-Alt-Del from the keyboard.  When the value in this file is 0, Ctrl-Alt-Del is trapped and sent to the init(1) program to              handle a graceful restart.  When the value is > 0, Linuxs reaction to a Vulcan Nerve Pinch (tm) will be an immediate reboot,  without  even  syncing  its  dirty              buffers.  Note: when a program (like dosemu)
[11:14] <omegacenti> has the keyboard in raw mode, the ctrl-alt-del is intercepted by the program before it ever reaches the kernel tty              layer, and its up to the program to decide what to do with it.
[11:14] <omegacenti> Whoops... thought the edit was succesful. My apologies.
[11:14] <novato_br> hi dudes, how can I install on kernel compile, the reader memory cards ?
[11:15] <nooga> heh
[11:15] <nooga> my x server is daamgeeed
[11:16] <deep> "When the value is > 0, Linuxs reaction to a Vulcan Nerve Pinch (tm) will be an immediate reboot,  without  even  syncing  its  dirty buffers", haha
[11:16] <deep> :D
[11:16] <kyrel> Hello ! I have a little problem with mdadm that handles software raid 1.
[11:17] <omegacenti> deep: Thats what I get for reading the %^&*ing manual :)
[11:17] <omegacenti> man proc, so funny.
[11:17] <deep> omegacenti: man proc :O smart, i'll have to check that one
[11:17] <omegacenti> However, ctl alt del doesn't work for me.
[11:18] <omegacenti> I think its intercepted like it says in man/proc
[11:18] <nooga> :/
[11:18] <omegacenti> Wow, I actually feel like I know a little bit about linux now...
[11:18] <omegacenti> I think I am over that initial learning curve hump
[11:19] <BelaBartok> how do i start windows XP safe mode from ubuntu created grub loader??
[11:19] <nooga> excuse me but.. what to do if i see an error /etc/X11/X is not executable;  and xserver does not start?
[11:19] <omegacenti> BelaBartok: use the windows partition (boot to it) and spam f8 I think.
[11:19] <nooga> i've got all those xserver- packages installed
[11:20] <BelaBartok> omegacenti: but i need the safeboot option in grub menu... is there a way? cause spamming that F8 does not work
[11:20] <deep> omegacenti: what exacly do you want ctrl + alt + del to do? ctrl + esc brings up Process Manager, if that's what you want. (:
[11:20] <omegacenti> deep: See? that doesn't even work
[11:21] <deep> omegacenti: hmm, mabie gnome is'nt supporting that. (8
[11:21] <omegacenti> deep: no idea.
[11:21] <deep> omegacenti: automatix had some entry on fixing that ctrl + alt + del, you can try that. (:
[11:22] <omegacenti> deep: I figure if I read every linux document ever written I will eventually get around to that problem.
[11:22] <deep> omegacenti: haha, yeah, and you'll become som super guru on the way
[11:23] <deep> #ubuntu is quite quiet right now?
[11:23] <deep> Did my internet just die?
[11:23] <omegacenti> youre okay
[11:23] <omegacenti> I can hear you
[11:23] <perlmonkey> hi
[11:23] <omegacenti> typing a huge message
[11:23] <deep> Whoo. Then somethings up with ubuntu. :D
[11:24] <perlmonkey> ubuntu is ok
[11:24] <omegacenti> So far the issues I am skirting are: lack of suspend/hibernation.  Scratchy statrtup sound (might be a clipped sound file (don't know how to check)); Some basic stuff like discovering things like how to take off the UI splash screen ( I like reading whats going on (I don't like seeing some icon with a little bar)); and checking how to change the fonts/screen resolutions in the other tty's.
[11:24] <deep> #ubuntu, then (:
[11:24] <perlmonkey> why
[11:24] <deep> ;O
[11:24] <deep> hibernation, i miss that too
[11:24] <omegacenti> yep
[11:25] <deep> and perlmonkey, noones asking questions :O #ubuntu is not spammed to death by users. Too strange
[11:25] <perlmonkey> my laptop suggests it has bluetooth
[11:25] <omegacenti> Thats why I think I am going to resize my swap and root partitions this morning while I sleep
[11:25] <Bassetts> anyone here know if there is a way to start and app minimized or in the tray?
[11:25] <perlmonkey> deep: progress :P
[11:25] <Bassetts> perlmonkey, mine does to, but it only has the controller not the bluetooth daughterboard
[11:26] <perlmonkey> Bassetts: ah maybe thats the same case for me then
[11:26] <Bassetts> find your model number and get the specs for it
[11:26] <perlmonkey> ok
[11:26] <omegacenti> hmmm ctl alt esc does something weird in ubuntu/gnome 7.04
[11:26] <deep> Hmm
[11:27] <perlmonkey> some guy lost a fortune on these laptops
[11:27] <deep> ;O
[11:27] <perlmonkey> I was lucky to get one cheap
[11:27] <deep> I want a laptop. :(
[11:27] <deep> too*
[11:27] <perlmonkey> deep have a look on ebay
[11:27] <deep> perlmonkey: yeah, as soon as i get some money
[11:28] <perlmonkey> I paid 47 for my laptop
[11:28] <perlmonkey> it's a Toshiba Tecra 9100
[11:28] <Bassetts> old Toshibas are well built
[11:28] <perlmonkey> true
[11:28] <Bassetts> I just got a new Lenovo 3000 C200
[11:28] <deep> well, i should get started on bridging itnernet at my server. Seems quite alot to do. ;/
[11:28] <perlmonkey> is that the company which took over ThinkPad?
[11:28] <Bassetts> perlmonkey, have you check the wiki to see if there is a laptop report for that model?
[11:29] <Bassetts> yes
[11:29] <juanalberto> hola
[11:29] <perlmonkey> i should check
[11:29] <nooga> i've just remved xserver-xorg and all deps
[11:29] <nooga> please help me
[11:29] <limasdf> a
[11:29] <nooga> don't know how to install those again
[11:29] <juanalberto> hablais espaol

[11:30] <limasdf> i want to listen to music
[11:30] <perlmonkey> its very good place
[11:30] <limasdf> what program?
[11:30] <nooga> hmm

[11:31] <sahil> hey, i have  2 icons for the partitions of my HD on my desktop but i do'nt want then on my desktop and if i press delete it gives me an error. Can someone tell me how to remove them?
[11:31] <deep> Bassetts: ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage with all the default packages with ubuntu (: so then he would get the lost packages
[11:31] <Bassetts> sorry nooga /etc/X11/X that should be
[11:31] <deep> nooga: :<
[11:31] <nooga> :/
[11:31] <nooga> doesn't work
[11:32] <kimmey> extensible syntax highlighting, thats what im for
[11:32] <kimmey> thanks deep
[11:32] <Bassetts> deep, ok i thought if installed xserver all the deps would get installed
[11:32] <deep> Bassetts: well, yes, but for example gnome isnt going to be (:
[11:32] <deep> Bassetts: and xchat, gaim, etc. etc.
[11:33] <lovingyou> hello
[11:33] <Bassetts> deep, ok, just he said he uninstalled xserver and all its deps, learn from mistakes =D
[11:33] <lovingyou> Someone can help me to ADD an IP on my machine ?
[11:33] <nooga> hm
[11:33] <nooga> i uninstalled it because it didn't work
[11:33] <perlmonkey> if only epiphany had a links toolbar, i would be the happiest monkey alive
[11:34] <roverrat> 4
[11:34] <nooga> after i removed ati driver
[11:34] <deep> Bassetts: haha, yeah, but if he uninstalled xserver then gnome is gone too. (8 and i'm guessing he woulnt be in #ubuntu if he used KDE or XFCE or something else (:
[11:34] <nooga> and aixgl
[11:34] <deep> :O
[11:34] <limasdf> what is good video player  to play WMA File

[11:46] <capiira> the problem i have with most distros is that i cant simply install newer packages that i want
[11:46] <longgia2001> my cdrom doesn't mount automatically, how can I make it auto mount when I load the disc in???
[11:46] <Beakman> hi, i am trying to boot linux from a usb stick, but the stick appears as a floppy and a hard drive.  how can i join these into just one drive?
[11:46] <omegacenti> deep: I actually tried gentoo as my first linux distro... guess how bad that scared me....
[11:46] <capiira> for example OpenOffice 2.2.1 or pidgin php 5.2.3 etc.
[11:46] <deep> omegacenti: i really have to find some good link about chost (8
[11:46] <hegemon> deep, so just point apt to the 7.04 repos?
[11:47] <capiira> i dont like the idea of depending so much of the distro
[11:47] <longgia2001> my cdrom doesn't mount automatically, how can I make it auto mount when I load the disc in???
[11:47] <deep> omegacenti: i tried gentoo once. Took me 8 hours to compile X11, kde, and everything that follows. Gave up and went back to ubuntu (8
[11:48] <capiira> there exist binary gentoo's
[11:48] <omegacenti> capiira: easy way to get around that, install the package yourself (such as debs or rpms) or compile from source yourself
[11:48] <tondar> hey all
[11:48] <deep> hegemon: yes (: just change "edgy" to "hoary", or what-they-are-called (8

[12:21] <Bassetts> did xchat not used to have a program to let it sit in the tray in the repos?
[12:21] <Ragnaroek> investigating
[12:21] <Ashur> where can i enable it
[12:21] <doddi> eregi: i believe the number is it appears in the list at the bottom
[12:22] <Quall> I need help. A .tar.gz wont install. It is a modem driver I am trying to get working. Will someone help? I have the terminal text
[12:22] <rob_p> Ashur: Do you have another bootable CD to try?
[12:22] <Ashur> erm, not to my knowledge
[12:22] <rob_p> Ashur: I suspect you corrupted the one you have.
[12:22] <PriceChild> Quall, what have you tried?
[12:22] <Ashur> :|
[12:22] <Ashur> >.<
[12:23] <Ashur> anyway i could install linux without having to boot it?
[12:23] <gerro> Quall: right click it and choose extract here
[12:23] <Quall> Just tried installing a martian driver for an Agere modem
[12:23] <limasdf> !amarok
[12:23] <ubotu> Amarok is an audio player for Linux with an intuitive interface. The latest version is 1.4.3 for Dapper and 1.4.5 for Edgy and packages are  available for Kubuntu at www.kubuntu.org See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Amarok
[12:23] <Quall> I dont know what is wrong though
[12:23] <Quall> I am a total noob
[12:23] <Quall> I know hardly anything
[12:23] <Quall> Gerro: You need to see what it says. It wont install
[12:24] <Quall> Can I PM someone it?
[12:24] <anandanbu> Help needed in restoring the fonts back in my Ubuntu 7.04
[12:24] <perlmonkey> hoooe
[12:24] <haggis> anyone know how to put the users list on xchat permanently?
[12:24] <Ashur> rob_p, would i have done it when i deleted the thunderbird folder?
[12:25] <Bassetts> anyone know what happened to xchat-systray
[12:25] <perlmonkey> Javid_UK hi
[12:25] <rob_p> Ashur: Perhaps... I don't know what you did, but it sounds likely.
[12:25] <TwigEther> Anyone know why I'd be getting: "/etc/init.d/rc: 2: sed: Input/output error." in my NFS boot on startup? (Followed closely by a system freeze :-()
[12:25] <Ashur> rob_p, i unzipped the iso and simply deleted the thunderbird folder
[12:25] <perlmonkey> ahhh more NFS woes, I have plenty myself too
[12:25] <eregi> doddi, cant find..
[12:25] <Ashur> to free up some space
[12:25] <Quall> Can I PM someone the problem?
[12:25] <TwigEther> perlmonkey: could you add to...: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/120483 =)
[12:25] <doddi> eregi: what cant you find?
[12:26] <perlmonkey> its better to post problems into channels so more people can see and respond
[12:26] <TwigEther> I think some of the init scripts are baaad
[12:26] <rob_p> Ashur: The iso will fit on a standard CD.  No need to go deleting things.
[12:26] <Ashur> rob_p
[12:26] <Ashur> it doesn't it says i need an extra 1.22 MB of space
[12:26] <perlmonkey> TwigEther: I don't think my problem is actually a bug, I think it's more a user error
[12:27] <TwigEther> perlmonkey: well I'm trying root over NFS, but it doesn't appear to actually work. Seems to get a login prompt, then a few more services load up and then it says "I/O error" lots >_<
[12:27] <perlmonkey> damn
[12:27] <Javid_UK> Question - Is it possible to get ubuntu version which boot and runs from a DVD  eg like Knoppix ?
[12:27] <kyrel> nobody knows about software raid ?
[12:27] <perlmonkey> I never tried to boot over NFS before
[12:27] <TwigEther> I've commented out /etc/network/interfaces' bit so eth0 doesn't get hosed
[12:27] <perlmonkey> kyrel: i know some
[12:28] <eregi> doddi, http://pastebin.com/929509 this is my menu.lst what should i SET by default?
[12:28] <perlmonkey> kyrel: I am running soft raid-5
[12:28] <Huffameg> help!! i need help with my DVDplayer. it just shuts down whenever I try to open a DVD and I get this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25685/
[12:28] <perlmonkey> cool
[12:28] <Ashur> rob_p: http://i18.tinypic.com/6hiam4h.jpg
[12:28] <rob_p> Ashur: That's odd!  I haven't heard of such a problem.  The iso image should fit nicely on a CD though.
[12:28] <perlmonkey> TwigEther: do you mount your /home/users on NFS also?
[12:28] <Ashur> my CD'sare average 700 mb CD's
[12:28] <kyrel> perlmonkey, my raid 1 array works, but when I unplug one of my two hdd, the system boot, assemble the degraded array but do not start it :S
[12:29] <Ashur> CD'sare*
[12:29] <Ashur> >.<
[12:29] <Ashur> CD's are
[12:29] <perlmonkey> TwigEther: that's what seems to be causing me the most problems, permission issues I think with some gnome and kde apps
[12:29] <TwigEther> perlmonkey: yeah, everything over NFS except /boot. Eventual aim is to get root over NFS working in my VM and then migrate it to my main box, using a CF card for /boot
[12:29] <Tama00> what the command on the live cd to switch sound cards
[12:29] <TwigEther> no hard drives would be sweet, see :)
[12:29] <Ashur> rob_p, should i try downloading it again?
[12:29] <perlmonkey> kyrel: does it have enough drives to start?
[12:29] <Tama00> because i have an onboard sound card and a pci sound card
[12:30] <Tama00> and i would like to change it from onboard to pci
[12:30] <Tama00> because the onboard one doesnt work at all
[12:30] <kyrel> perlmonkey, 1 of 2. It is morrored, so i think yes.
[12:30] <tondar> hey all
[12:30] <perlmonkey> TwigEther: cool
[12:30] <doddi> eregi: my guess would be 7 but i am not 100% sure if it starts 0 based. Maybe someone else could clarify
[12:30] <rob_p> Ashur: That would be my recommendation.
[12:30] <kyrel> perlmonkey, mirrored sorry
[12:30] <tondar> I cant add the webilder applet to my gnome-panel
[12:30] <perlmonkey> Kyrel: yes
[12:30] <tondar> it generates an error
[12:30] <Ashur> rob_p, it says it's downloading a 696.2 mb file
[12:31] <doddi> eregi: you could set it to saved which will default to your last booted
[12:31] <Ashur> and apparently my cd's are only 696
[12:31] <perlmonkey> Kyrel: I have no experience of raid 1 :-/
[12:31] <kyrel> perlmonkey, you use mdadm ?
[12:31] <perlmonkey> ya
[12:32] <perlmonkey> mdadm --detail /dev/md0
[12:32] <kyrel> maybe you know which script is lauched at startup to assemble arrays ?
[12:32] <rob_p> Ashur: Odd.  Not sure what to tell you.
[12:32] <perlmonkey> phew now you're asking
[12:32] <perlmonkey> not sure
[12:32] <Ashur> Maybe they are just cheap CD's
[12:32] <babo> guys, I need to get a web page from my cache. The page that I was looking at had important info on it. Unfortunately due to a db error, that info is gone. The page should still be in my firefox cache though right ? How do I find it ?
[12:32] <necro> Ashur: can you overburn?
[12:33] <Ashur> necro, is that the same as re-write?
[12:33] <necro> no
[12:33] <Ashur> oh
[12:33] <Ashur> erm
[12:33] <necro> Ashur: what proggy you use to burn?
[12:33] <Ashur> i don't know, what is it?
[12:33] <perlmonkey> babo: cache files are located in ./mozilla in home folder
[12:33] <Ashur> just the vista one
[12:33] <necro> hrmm
[12:34] <eregi> doddi, works 7
[12:34] <necro> Ashur: try and look at drive settings, or somewhere in your settings, and see if there are any options to overburn.
[12:34] <kyrel> perlmonkey, I've read that mdadm does'nt allow to start the array because data with only one disk sould be corrupted. But I need to sqeeze this protection :S
[12:34] <doddi> eregi: cool
[12:34] <perlmonkey> kyrel: ah yes as I suspected that would be the problem
[12:35] <perlmonkey> kyrel: you could try and force it to start
[12:35] <Ashur> necro, how do i check the disk settings
[12:35] <perlmonkey> there is an option for mdadm
[12:35] <kyrel> perlmonkey, yep, but i don't know where. I've tried some mdadm.conf options, without any result
[12:36] <necro> ashur: I dunno, never used vista.  Just look in any of the settings and see if you see anything with overburn.
[12:36] <Ashur> ok
[12:37] <Ashur> thanks, there's something using up about 1% of the disk.
[12:37] <Ashur> i'll format it and see what happens
[12:37] <perlmonkey> kyrel: http://www.linuxmanpages.com/man8/mdadm.8.php
[12:37] <perlmonkey> krel: --assume-clean or --force might help you get it going
[12:37] <necro> Ashur: usually, if you use the disc-at-once option, and no multi-session, you can burn a *lil* bit more data.  What are you trying to burn?
[12:38] <Ashur> oh ffs, the format took up more space O.o
[12:38] <Nickste> hey all. I'm dualbooting ubuntu and windoze. If I format the ubuntu partition, will the grub loader still remain intact?
[12:38] <Ashur> necro, disk at once?
[12:38] <CyberMad> i tried share a folder on ubuntu.. how to access it from windows? i tried //<IP_ADDRESS>/ (ubuntu's IP), but it ask me for password
[12:38] <Ashur> never heard of it
[12:39] <necro> Ashur: that means that you burn the disc and finallize it.  You can't burn to it again.  It's done.
[12:39] <Bassetts> where are the icons for xchat kept?
[12:39] <CyberMad> what is default username and password?
[12:39] <Ashur> will i need a burner program to do that?
[12:39] <necro> Ashur: I don't think so.
[12:39] <tschaka> CyberMad in smb.conf the user must be "share", user = share
[12:39] <tschaka> for no pw
[12:39] <Milux> hello! I've a issue with my onboard soundcard VIA 8237 AC97, there's a costant bass stutter. I tried all configurations and settings with alsa but i don't resolve the problem
[12:39] <Ashur> as you don't get any options with the vista burner
[12:40] <necro> Ashur: you should look into getting nero.  Probably much better than the vista default burning program.
[12:40] <CyberMad> CyberMad i see.. ok thank you, i will try it
[12:40] <Ashur> i have no money
[12:40] <Ashur> what so ever at the moment
[12:40] <necro> Ashur: what are you trying to burn?
[12:40] <Ashur> ubuntu 7.04
[12:40] <lovingyou> I want to edit a file, but when I want to save it its permision denied ...
[12:40] <lovingyou> what is the chmod command ?
[12:40] <tschaka> CyberMad and restart samba after u've done it, should work then (with sudo /etc/init.d/smb or samba restart) :P
[12:40] <necro> Ashur: that will fit on a normal cd.
[12:41] <Ashur> necro
[12:41] <Ashur> it doesn't
[12:41] <IdleOne> lovingyou, sudo gedit file.name
[12:41] <necro> Ashur: you're trying to burn the .iso, right?
[12:41] <Ashur> http://i18.tinypic.com/6hiam4h.jpg
[12:41] <lovingyou> IdleOne I use pico
[12:41] <lovingyou> ...
[12:41] <Ashur> yes
[12:41] <perlmonkey> Ashur: an iso file has to be burned different than a normal data cd
[12:41] <lovingyou> chmod + ? file
[12:41] <lovingyou> to work
[12:41] <perlmonkey> you must state iso cd burn eh
[12:41] <IdleOne> lovingyou, sudo pico file.name
[12:41] <necro> perl: thanx.  :)
[12:42] <necro> Ashur: right, you have to burn the image.  Not drag and drop the data.
[12:42] <perlmonkey> thats it
[12:42] <perlmonkey> necro: thanks for putting it better
[12:42] <Ashur> oh
[12:42] <babo> guys, does anyone know how I can get a page from the firefox disk cache ?
[12:42] <Ashur> any advice on how to do that?
[12:42] <rob_p> lovingyou: Did you have any success with adding the second IP?
[12:42] <Lincoherent> \join #ubuntu-fr
[12:42] <necro> perl: thank you and all your buds for helping me get up and running.  You have my thanx.
[12:42] <babo> I go to about:cache and look for my page on disk. Apparently it's there. But there isn't any matching page key in ~/.mozilla
[12:42] <perlmonkey> Ashur which prog are you using to burn the iso image?
[12:43] <perlmonkey> usually the software will have the option or a switch somewhere to state iso image
[12:43] <Ashur> perlmonkey: the bruner which comes with vista
[12:43] <lovingyou> do you have any idee how I can make a process to start himself if the server get restarted?
[12:43] <Ashur> burner*
[12:43] <Ashur> i get no options
[12:43] <perlmonkey> ok
[12:43] <Ashur> when i press burn
[12:43] <doddi> Ithink Ashur might be burning the iso onto a disk as a file and not burning the actual iso
[12:43] <perlmonkey> i think so too
[12:43] <necro> he is
[12:43] <perlmonkey> and extra space is needed that way
[12:43] <necro> yep
[12:44] <Ashur> how do i burn it as an iso image?
[12:44] <necro> Ashur: look for any option to burn a "previously saved image"
[12:44] <Ashur> the only options i get
[12:44] <Ashur> are
[12:44] <tschaka> Ashur u may download a free iso burning programm? :p
[12:44] <doddi> ashur: what package he using to burn?
[12:44] <necro> Ashur: an .iso is an exact picture of what a disc is supposed to look like.
[12:45] <necro> doddi: the vista included one.  :o
[12:45] <Jared> Is there an actual command to show desktop?
[12:45] <necro> Let me see what I can find.....
[12:45] <doddi> ashur: i have vista and i dont think the included one will burn iso's
[12:45] <Ashur> oh :(
[12:46] <necro> geez
[12:46] <Ashur> thanks for all your help guys, it's much appreciated
[12:46] <necro> no wonder I went to linux
[12:46] <Ashur> i'm looking for an so burner
[12:46] <Ashur> as we speak
[12:46] <tyoc> Hey people, trying to run an app, but it say: error while loading shared libraries: libpng.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[12:46] <necro> Ashur: look for a cd-burning program that will burn .iso's.  Almost all will.
[12:46] <tschaka> http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=233217
[12:46] <doddi> ashur: use another free iso burning tool like already suggested or download daemon tools so you can mount the iso image as a normal drive, then copy onto a disk
[12:46] <tschaka> Ashur
[12:46] <necro> Ashur: you can probably even find a shareware one.
[12:47] <Ashur> i can never see which ones are any good
[12:48] <mrynit> http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s85/mrynit/partiton.png that is wat i wnat to do. do i need to change fstab
[12:48] <necro> Ashur: see if there is a trial version of "nero".
[12:48] <IdleOne> Ashur, nero has a free trial version you can download
[12:48] <necro> hehe
[12:48] <necro> :D
[12:48] <Jared> Find one called "iso burner"
[12:48] <Jared> It's very simple.
[12:48] <Jared> Free.
[12:48] <Jared> And effective
[12:48] <IdleOne> iso burner is also good
[12:48] <yaeyo> Could someone point me to some documentation on fixing broken acpi dsdts? \
[12:49] <Jared> (no that wasn't sarcasm :P)
[12:49] <necro> Maybe linux isn't his speed.  :P
[12:49] <tschaka> Ashur http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=233217 its called burncdcc and requires no installation
[12:49] <Jared> ack
[12:49] <Jared> ack
[12:49] <Jared> ack
[12:49] <Jared> wait...never mind :P
[12:49] <Jared> Yeah...you're on windows aren't you?
[12:49] <IdleOne> !enter
[12:49] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:49] <necro> Ashur: maybe you should stick with windows.
[12:49] <Jared> sorry :S.
[12:49] <doddi> Ashur: one thing i will say is do not install ubuntu on the same machine you have vista running on - if you dont know what you are doing you will most likely screw up your vista too
[12:50] <necro> definately
[12:50] <perlmonkey> true
[12:50] <IdleOne> !vista
[12:50] <ubotu> vista is the new operating system by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org
[12:50] <perlmonkey> good advice from mr doddi
[12:50] <Ashur> lol, i sort of know what i'mdoing. i've read up but i've just neber burnt an iso to disk before
[12:50] <doddi> i found out the hard way :)
[12:50] <Ashur> never*
[12:50] <Ashur> by the way, if i only have on partition
[12:51] <Ashur> can i still partition the two?
[12:51] <Didaskal0s> How do you view information of your linux kernel?
[12:51] <ubuntuish> hi, i am having a problem with applications that i minimize, they seem to disappear, they are still running under processes but disappear from the gui, is there a way i can bring them back up? (specifically mirc.exe via wine)
[12:51] <perlmonkey> the best way to install linux is to have a free partition or space available for one
[12:51] <IdleOne> ubuntuish, use xchat
[12:51] <doddi> ashur: vista comes with its own partitioning tool now so only use that as vista does lots of voodoo stuff with your drive
[12:52] <Ashur> O.o
[12:52] <ubuntuish> IdleOne, thank you. That really helped.
[12:52] <ubuntuish> hi, i am having a problem with applications that i minimize, they seem to disappear, they are still running under processes but disappear from the gui, is there a way i can bring them back up? (specifically mirc.exe via wine)
[12:52] <Ashur> doddi, where can i find it?
[12:52] <tondar_> hey all
[12:52] <tondar_> lost my beryl desktop cube
[12:52] <firedrops> lol mirc.exe via wine
[12:52] <tondar_> can't bring it back
[12:52] <firedrops> why?
[12:52] <Jared> Ashur, Burning an iso isn't even hard compared to some of the crap you'll screw up trying to do anything else :P
[12:52] <firedrops> :/
[12:52] <doddi> Administrative tools
[12:52] <perlmonkey> haha
[12:52] <perlmonkey> why or why
[12:52] <tondar_> i cant even rotate it anymore
[12:52] <perlmonkey> msie
[12:52] <perlmonkey> for web too?
[12:52] <IdleOne> ubuntuish, I dont understand this fascination with wanting to use windows programs when there are plenty of linux alternatives that are just as good and most of the time better
[12:53] <tondar_> hello
[12:53] <tondar_> ?
[12:53] <perlmonkey> ;-)
[12:53] <tondar_> any ideas
[12:53] <tondar_> ?
[12:53] <tondar_> beryl no cube
[12:53] <tondar_> :(
[12:53] <leagris> ubuntuish, these application rely on havi the explorer service running aka desktop manager for Windows. Wine does not provide a desktop manager, so no task bar and no iconized application. As stated, use native Linux Xchat for IRC.
[12:53] <ubuntuish> IdleOne, mirc is mirc there is no alternative for it. I am not using it because i like the way it looks, i use it for my scripts and for so on
[12:53] <Lincoherent_> #ubuntu-fr
[12:53] <necro> ubuntuish: yea, use xchat.
[12:53] <Jared> ubuntuish, why use mirc on wine when you can use xchat...I mean...some stuff, okay...
[12:54] <Jared> Xchat has pretty much everythign you want.
[12:54] <RayJones> how do I auto load a module?
[12:54] <ubuntuish> is nobody reading?
[12:54] <IdleOne> ubuntuish, ok well try asking in #winehq they should be able to help you
[12:54] <RayJones> I have to keep modprobe lirc on bootup
[12:54] <ubuntuish> ty
[12:54] <perlmonkey> i wonder if i could run Smartstamp software on wine
[12:55] <perlmonkey> Im sick of having to keep XP partition just for 1 program
[12:55] <Jared> what program perlmonkey
[12:55] <perlmonkey> Royal Mail's SmartStamp software for Windows
[12:55] <perlmonkey> I guess if the software is not supported by wine in the project it wont be expected to run?
[12:56] <tondar_> any ideas? please help me
[12:56] <necro> there isn't a linux stamp printing proggy yet?
[12:56] <tondar_> lost my cube
[12:56] <perlmonkey> or does wine provide general support for apps built a certain way?
[12:56] <perlmonkey> i never used wine before
[12:56] <Ashur> necro
[12:56] <Ashur> can i pm you?
[12:56] <_Ahti> how do i copy files over ssh? the sshd server is running on my linux, and the ssh client is running on my VMware Windows XP
[12:56] <IdleOne> tondar_, ask a full question on 1 line
[12:56] <necro> Ashur: you can try.  Dunno, you might have to be registered.
[12:56] <rob_p> RayJones: Put it in /etc/modules and it will auto load on bootup.
[12:56] <_Ahti> i need to copy a file from Windows to Linux
[12:56] <Bassetts> can someone help me, i want xchat to go to the tray if i click the close button
[12:56] <RayJones> thanks just found it
[12:56] <ace_suares> perlmonkey: try qemu. You can instalal XP inside qemu and then run your app.
[12:56] <tondar_> IdleOne: I lost my beryl desktop cube, I can't rotate it no more
[12:57] <perlmonkey> _Ahti: ftp?
[12:57] <RayJones> what about daemon programs like lircd ?
[12:57] <IdleOne> tondar_, ahh ok #ubuntu-effects or #beryl can help you
[12:57] <Huffameg> how do i make backup of xorg.conf in terminal?
[12:57] <perlmonkey> ace_suares; thanks
[12:57] <ace_suares> Ahti: use scp
[12:57] <rob_p> RayJones: You need to make an init script for it.
[12:57] <necro> Ashur: join #Ashur
[12:57] <necro> :)
[12:58] <tondar_> IdleOne: will give it a try
[12:58] <RayJones> right thanks
[12:58] <IdleOne> Bassetts, there is a xchat-systray package you can install from repos
[12:58] <perlmonkey> Huffameg: cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.bak
[12:58] <Bassetts> IdleOne, that got removed for feisty
[12:58] <IdleOne> Bassetts, no it didnt
[12:58] <Bassetts> IdleOne, as it was considered not needed now xchat has its own icon
[12:58] <ace_suares> _Ahti: you can run Public File Server an dcopy them over http, too.

[12:59] <skar> hi, i've installed feisty, and while running "xmms", if i search for a song by pressing "j", the string i type in the search box isn't visible, nor is the search filtering the songs on the live as it used to!?!?! any ideas on how to fix it?
[12:59] <RayJones> thanks

[12:59] <rob_p> RayJones: welcome
[12:59] <ace_suares> perlmonkey: you used qemu before ?
[12:59] <necro> Ashur: join #Ashur.
[12:59] <leagris> Bassetts, IdleOne now there is xchat-gome with embeded taskbar icone and gnome integration
[12:59] <Julle> i have followed two different guides on how to restore grub after a windows installation without success. Is there anyone who could give me a helping hand?
[12:59] <perlmonkey> ace_suares: never, but installing XP would seem to defeat the object
[12:59] <ace_suares> perlmonkey: why ?
[12:59] <Jared> Julle...I think I've read it's best to install windows first.
[12:59] <Bassetts> leagris, xchat has a systray icon, i want xchat to minimize to tray when i click close
[01:00] <perlmonkey> why do I want XP installed when I have it installed already eh
[01:00] <Huffameg> per
[01:00] <perlmonkey> would just be making extra work
[01:00] <Huffameg> perlmonkey: i get permission denied..
[01:00] <ace_suares> perlmonkey: oh. Well, it's installed inside linux so no dual booting more.
[01:00] <Julle> Jared yes it is, but i had o make a reinstallation of windows
[01:00] <IdleOne> Bassetts, seems your right
[01:00] <perlmonkey> Huffameg: add sudo infront
[01:00] <perlmonkey> sudo cp ...
[01:00] <Huffameg> ah.. hehe
[01:00] <Jared> ahh, okay.
[01:00] <leagris> Bassetts, right click the systray icone and select hide that's it
[01:00] <Lincoherent_> grrrr
[01:01] <Bassetts> leagris, i need it to do it when i close the window
[01:01] <perlmonkey> ace_suares: true, I have limited space tho on my drive :-/
[01:01] <Bassetts> leagris, i use devilspie to minimize or send apps to the tray via closing them on startuo
[01:01] <perlmonkey> plus no license for XP
[01:01] <IdleOne> Bassetts, try asking in #xchat if there is a plugin you can load that does that
[01:01] <Bassetts> ok
[01:02] <neil_feisty> what could i use rss reader for ubuntu
[01:02] <ace_suares> perlmonkey: zap the xp partition and make it into a linux partition. Use qemu to install windows xp on linux. install your app into windows xp.
[01:02] <perlmonkey> phew
[01:02] <IdleOne> !liferea | neil_feisty
[01:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about liferea - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:02] <sahil> Ubuntu displays a white screen at after loading successfully and login, what should I do?
[01:02] <perlmonkey> or maybe just fuk SmartStamp off and start using their web based service
[01:03] <IdleOne> perlmonkey, language please :)
[01:03] <perlmonkey> sorry
[01:03] <TwigEther> Anyone know which service is responsible for the "Starting basic networking..." message during boot?
[01:03] <Sepho> anybody know if feisty is with AIGLX preinstalled and configured? (for ATI card graphic)
[01:03] <TwigEther> 'cos my NFS root works fine up till there now :o
[01:03] <Bassetts> IdleOne, it seems i can install the systray plugin from the site of the author, but it has no icon in the tray
[01:04] <perlmonkey> sahil: CTRL + ALT + Backspace, and login in safe mode
[01:04] <sahil> perlmonkey, then?
[01:04] <neil_feisty> tks IdleOne
[01:04] <perlmonkey> try to establish from Xorg error log what caused the problem and/or check your xorg.conf config
[01:04] <perlmonkey> could be display misconfig
[01:04] <Bassetts> where are the xchat icons located?
[01:05] <sahil> perlmonkey, is there a way to reconfigure the server ?
[01:05] <perlmonkey> sure
[01:05] <Huffameg> what is a typical name for a standard text editor?
[01:05] <Jared> where is the .gtkrc file located?
[01:05] <perlmonkey> anyone know the command to reconfig xorg?
[01:05] <IdleOne> Huffameg, nano
[01:05] <tschaka> perlmonkey dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg or sumthing
[01:05] <perlmonkey> in debian it would be dpkg-reconfigure
[01:05] <perlmonkey> ahh thanks
[01:05] <firedrops> hmm
[01:06] <firedrops> i think that if u delete xorg.conf
[01:06] <perlmonkey> ive only been using Ubuntu 2 weeks
[01:06] <firedrops> he'll just create a new one
[01:06] <firedrops> :P
[01:06] <firedrops> but if you do try that, dont delete, rename
[01:06] <perlmonkey> make a backup of your conf first
[01:06] <firedrops> :P
[01:06] <tschaka> firedrops i really wouldnt test it w/o backup :D
[01:06] <firedrops> lol, rename
[01:06] <firedrops> :P
[01:07] <perlmonkey> sudo cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.bak in /etc/X11
[01:07] <mez> HELLOO!!
[01:07] <firedrops> i think the most recent versions of xorg support that
[01:07] <IdleOne> Bassetts, /usr/share/icons
[01:07] <perlmonkey> Basetts got his icons finally
[01:08] <phretor> hi there

[01:09] <Bassetts> IdleOne, /set gui_tray_flags 1
[01:09] <perlmonkey> type: /msg nickserv
[01:09] <Bassetts> IdleOne, that makes xchat 2.8.0 go to tray on close
[01:09] <_dac> ok thank you
[01:10] <sorsis> is ubuntu 7.04 feisty going to get blender 2.50 version?

[01:11] <Jared> umm...yeah
[01:11] <IdleOne> Bassetts, thank you good to know
[01:11] <doddi> perlmonkey: yes
[01:12] <perlmonkey> cool
[01:12] <Myrtti> sorsis: I doubt it
[01:13] <RayJones> Hi can I get that website with the init script creator I seem to have lost it!!!!!
[01:14] <rob_p> RayJones: http://rob.pectol.com/startup_scriptbuilder/
[01:14] <Jared> how do I restart x?
[01:14] <Jared> I went blank try8ing to think.
[01:14] <RayJones> ty
[01:15] <tschaka> Jared ctrl alt backspace or /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[01:15] <Jared> thanks
[01:16] <ZummiG777> Question: I'm about to install Ubuntu for the first time, coming from a Fedora Core environment.  What are the real differences between Ubuntu Server and Ubuntu Desktop?
[01:16] <_dac> perlmonkey, what time of day is there?
[01:16] <Frogzoo> ZummiG777: the gui - that's it
[01:16] <doddi> Zummig: i believe server is command line only
[01:16] <IdleOne> ZummiG777, GUI is all
[01:16] <eleim7> think he left
[01:17] <ZummiG777> So, Desktop has the Gnome and Server has shell access only?
[01:17] <tschaka> _dac perlmonkeys daytime should be 12.15 pm :p
[01:17] <IdleOne> ZummiG777, you got it
[01:17] <_dac> it's 6:17am here.
[01:17] <tschaka> _dac usa?
[01:18] <_dac> yes, texas
[01:18] <eleim7> heh, me too
[01:18] <tschaka> kk
[01:18] <ZummiG777> Then, let me just confirm I can do something.  If I run server edition, assuming init level 3, but want to run an X based application over ssh with forwarding enabled, can I install KDE/Gnome/X and still run said application even if there is no X server running?
[01:18] <tschaka> u texas guys are crazy, sitting in a freaky ubuntu channel 6.17 in the morning, having chats with other freaks :d
[01:18] <TakeOut{u}> no
[01:19] <SleepingSloth> right. my screensaver is crashing my desktop - as is the screensaver preferences manager - can anyone tell me how I can turn it off by changing a config file?
[01:19] <Frogzoo> ZummiG777: default is run level 2 on ubuntu - there isn't the 2 shell/5 gui distinction from redhat
[01:19] <eleim7> well, I broke my Ubuntu and I've been trying to figure out how to fix it
[01:19] <Hit3k> ty
[01:19] <tschaka> ic, what is it eleim7 ?
[01:19] <_dac> I'm old and I have to goabout every 2 hours.
[01:20] <ZummiG777> That is interesting to know, Frogzoo.  I do need to read up more on the system, is there a purpose to init level 3 then?
[01:20] <eleim7> downloaded Envy, installed the nvidia driver, restarted X or something... and a module won't load...  Also...no x means no gui..period...I believe.
[01:21] <IdleOne> eleim7, good thing is your Ubuntu is only a week old and you can do a fresh install without losing to much
[01:21] <nathanj> _Ahti_ sudo /etc/init.d/sshd stop
[01:21] <eleim7> any suggestions? I'm having to run windows until I can figure out how to reinstall my nvidia driver
[01:21] <_Ahti_> nathanj: Thanks :D
[01:21] <IdleOne> !nvidia | eleim7
[01:21] <ubotu> eleim7: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:21] <demonio> to install the nvidia driver is easy
[01:22] <ZummiG777> Thanks!  Off I flee to see if these Sun boxen will enjoy Ubuntu then
[01:22] <nomasteryoda> much more so than it used to be
[01:22] <keck0f> hi.
[01:23] <nomasteryoda> howdy keck0f
[01:23] <eleim7> I need a second computer I guess so I don't have to handwrite all these suggestions on napkins and whatnot
[01:23] <hylje> keck0f: its not
[01:23] <hylje> go away
[01:24] <IdleOne> hylje, no need to be rude
[01:24] <IdleOne> !offtopic | keck0f
[01:24] <ubotu> keck0f: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:28] <eleim7> blah.
[01:30] <necro> wow
[01:30] <necro> What's goin' on in here?
[01:30] <eleim7> alot of people coming and going
[01:30] <necro> Someone run a netsplit.c?  :D
[01:31] <keck0f> i installed ubuntu-6.06.1-server-amd64 and then installed openssh-server and xterm via apt-get. ssh works, i can open a remote session using putty. But connecting to the unbuntu server using xmanager give's error "The X11 forwarding request was rejected!". Are there any more deb-Packages that need to be installed to run a remote x-session?
[01:31] <ShpxLbh_uk> what application do you use for listing internet radio ?
[01:31] <TakeOut{u}> yes keck0f, X and a manager
[01:32] <necro> Shpx_bh_uk: google internet radio
[01:32] <ShpxLbh_uk> in ubuntu is working ?
[01:32] <fabian_> hola
[01:33] <eleim7> well, off to try to figure something out... brb
[01:34] <keck0f> TakeOut{u}: What packages are necessary at least? Is "xorg, twm" and the depending packages enough?
[01:34] <TakeOut{u}> keck0f : you'd probably be better off opening "sudo aptitude" going to virtual packages, and installing Ubuntu-Desktop
[01:35] <TakeOut{u}> it might install alot of stuff you don't need, but unless bandwidth and HD space are a big concern, its the easiest way
[01:35] <nomasteryoda> keck0f, the configuration files are in /etc/ssh and /etc/sshd if memory serves me
[01:35] <IdleOne> TakeOut{u}, keck0f if you want you can also install xubuntu-desktop
[01:36] <LordGamer> Anyone know the best DVD Ripper and XviD encoder for Ubuntu?
[01:36] <nomasteryoda> keck0f, installing one desktop package such as xchat should call in the dependencies using aptitude install pkg
[01:36] <nomasteryoda> k9copy
[01:36] <nomasteryoda> avidemux for xvid ..  .my 2 cents
[01:36] <LordGamer> k9copy doesnt have enough settings
[01:37] <LordGamer> what about a stand alone DVD ripping program?
[01:38] <olive2> acidrip should do it
[01:40] <olive2> or just 'apt-cache search dvd rip'
[01:40] <tondar> hey all
[01:41] <tondar> has anyone worked with weblider
[01:41] <graveson1> is there a tool to encode files from any format to a divx compatible player. looking for a frontend to mencoder. i have tried so many tools and just cannot get anything to work
[01:41] <tondar> the applet that changes desktop wallpaper
[01:41] <sorsis> to get libGL.so is it enough if i install nvidia-glx-new.deb ?
[01:41] <tondar> im having problems with it
[01:41] <F00BaR> hi, how do i start the sshd server
[01:42] <olive2> VLC normally works for converting and playing divx files
[01:42] <tondar> webilder desktop applet? anyone
[01:42] <tondar> ?
[01:42] <stefg> F00BaR: you have installed openssh-server?
[01:42] <F00BaR> yes
[01:42] <olive2> sudo /etc/init.d/sshd start
[01:42] <olive2> sudo apt-get install openssh-server if you dont have it yet
[01:43] <F00BaR> i have it
[01:43] <F00BaR> thank you
[01:44] <F00BaR> hmm
[01:44] <handy> hi
[01:45] <LordGamer> I am looking for a DVD Decrypter equivalent to Linux
[01:46] <Bassetts> hi, in rhythmbox if i add a few albums to the play queue and put shuffle on the songs are still played in order
[01:46] <Bassetts> LordGamer, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs
[01:46] <stefg> !dvd
[01:46] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[01:47] <LordGamer> tried K9 didnt work
[01:47] <nuked_omen> when i want to install nautilus-sendto it requires that i uninstall pidgin and install gaim.. why is that?
[01:47] <stefg> there's dvd::rip (a bit archaic)
[01:47] <AnRkey> LordGamer, a quick google and i found this http://mrbass.org/linux/ubuntu/dvdshrink/
[01:47] <Bassetts> nuked_omen, i dont think pidgin is compatible with it
[01:47] <AnRkey> LordGamer, google is your friend :D
[01:48] <nuked_omen> but pidgin is the new gaim
[01:48] <LordGamer> I am using google and talking to you :p
[01:48] <nuked_omen> i should downgrade to gaim to be able to use nautilus-send to
[01:48] <Bassetts> nuked_omen, it is new, nautilus doesnt support it yet
[01:48] <nuked_omen> that's weird
[01:48] <AnRkey> LordGamer, lazy :D
[01:48] <stefg> !pidgin | nuked_omen
[01:48] <ubotu> nuked_omen: pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[01:48] <nuked_omen> i see
[01:48] <PriceChild> nuked_omen, remember pidgin isn't supported in feisty...
[01:49] <nuked_omen> i didn't like the new name anyway
[01:49] <nuked_omen> pidgin
[01:49] <nuked_omen> pfft
[01:49] <Bassetts> it has meaning
[01:49] <Bassetts> look it up in the dictionary
[01:49] <nuked_omen> i know but it sounds funny
[01:49] <LordGamer> oh I just found thi http://linuxappfinder.com/
[01:51] <nuked_omen> LordGamer: that can be handy
[01:51] <vermoos> i get ^[[A / ^[[B in the terminal sometimes (when i paste mainly)
[01:51] <eleim7> mkay, that didn't work
[01:52] <vermoos> and this is the "termcap settings"
[01:52] <vermoos> ?
[01:52] <jonathan_>  /msg NickServ IDENTIFY jonathan
[01:52] <vermoos> can this be cured - not being able to shift-ctrl-v is inconvenient
[01:52] <nuked_omen> lol
[01:52] <PriceChild> jonathan_, change your password...
[01:52] <jonathan_> ok
[01:52] <jonathan_> sorry wrong place to change
[01:53] <nuked_omen> vermoos: in the terminal, i paste with ctrl+insert
[01:53] <Bassetts> nuked_omen, you never thought ubuntu sounded weird, but that has meaning?
[01:53] <PriceChild> jonathan_, use the server tab if your client has one so that you don't give it away like that next time ;)
[01:53] <nuked_omen> vermoos: actually, shift+insert
[01:53] <CyberMad> what is the best and fastest pdf reader on ubuntu?
[01:53] <crdlb> CyberMad, evince (it comes with ubuntu)
[01:53] <nuked_omen> Bassetts: ubuntu sounded ok
[01:53] <jonathan_> PriceChild, just trying to log in to my account
[01:53] <TTRanger_> is there any way to convince Ubuntu to stop asking me to log in over and over again to access the Update Manager, etc?  I am just a single user and it gets kinda annoying that I have to log in at all.
[01:53] <jonathan_> ok
[01:54] <Bassetts> TTRanger_, it is because it is a root application
[01:54] <CyberMad> crdlb in 7.04 (feisty) there is evince ?
[01:54] <nuked_omen> TTRanger_: you can log in as root, but that's risky
[01:54] <CyberMad> where is it?
[01:54] <TTRanger_> What is the risk, nuked_omen
[01:54] <eleim7> what do I need to do to reinstall Ubuntu from a live CD... it won't automatically boot from the CD for some reason
[01:54] <crdlb> CyberMad, yes it's just called Document Reader in the menu iirc
[01:54] <Bassetts> you could delete anything TTRanger_
[01:54] <nuked_omen> TTRanger_: you can ANYTHING to your system
[01:55] <nuked_omen> including screwing it up
[01:55] <Bassetts> and change anything
[01:55] <eleim7> <-- good at screwing stuff up
[01:55] <Bassetts> its not a good idea unless you a very experienced linux user
[01:55] <TTRanger_> :-)
[01:55] <crdlb> CyberMad, correction "Document viewer"
[01:55] <eleim7> hence the reinstall
[01:55] <vbabiy> hey guys does any one know of a tool to be able to rip streaming real video
[01:55] <TTRanger_> ok thanks guys
[01:55] <nuked_omen> eleim7: learn not to then
[01:55] <Bassetts> eleim7, welcome to my world
[01:55] <eleim7> trying
[01:55] <PriceChild> !info mencoder | vbabiy
[01:55] <ubotu> vbabiy: mencoder: MPlayer's Movie Encoder. In component multiverse, is extra. Version 2:1.0~rc1-0ubuntu9.1 (feisty), package size 3474 kB, installed size 8736 kB
[01:56] <eleim7> I was merely trying to update my video driver and now it won't load a module and I'm not sure what to do
[01:56] <vbabiy> PriceChild: any idea how this is done
[01:56] <CyberMad> crdlb thanks :)
[01:56] <PriceChild> vbabiy, nope... but read "man mencoder" if you're really interested...
[01:56] <A[D] minS> !3D
[01:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 3d - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:57] <vbabiy> thanks PriceChild
[01:57] <CyberMad> is there software like K-Lite Mega Codec Pack for ubuntu?
[01:57] <crdlb> vbabiy, something like: mplayer rtsp://somestream/whatever.rm -dumpstream -dumpfile somefile       would work for just pulling it
[01:57] <crdlb> then you can use mencoder to reencode it later
[01:58] <crdlb> if you want to
[01:59] <jonathan_> Which is better, KDE or Gnome?
[01:59] <PriceChild> !best | jon
[01:59] <ubotu> jon: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[01:59] <PriceChild> jonathan_, ^
[01:59] <jonathan_> ubuntu or kubuntu?
[01:59] <jonathan_> it still confusing me
[01:59] <PriceChild> jonathan_, its personal preference.
[02:00] <jonathan_> oh... he2
[02:01] <crdlb> jonathan_, and you can install both desktop environments on one installation
[02:01] <jonathan_> Somebody Work at freenode in here?
[02:01] <crdlb> and plenty of others
[02:01] <jonathan_> ?
[02:01] <jonathan_> how can?
[02:01] <stefg> !freenode
[02:01] <ubotu> freenode is the IRC network that you're on! See http://freenode.net/faq.shtml
[02:02] <vbabiy> thanks crdlb

[02:05] <yobrien> !ask
[02:05] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:05] <stefg> jonathan_: you choose your session at login, so you are taken to one or the other
[02:05] <cjaydee> sorry
[02:05] <SleepingSloth> stefg: I will be looking at solving the root cause later - for now I need to stop my PC crashing every time I leave it idle for 10 mins

[02:06] <jonathan_> there is just gnome
[02:06] <sorsis> vbabiy: i see projector as another display with no specific software needed.
[02:06] <Pici> jonathan_: you need to install something first
[02:07] <jonathan_> double installer?
[02:07] <Pici> jonathan_: If you want to use KDE too, install kubuntu-desktop
[02:07] <stefg> SleepingSloth: sudo apt-get remove --purge xscreensaver-gl xscreensaver-gl-extra

[02:07] <vbabiy> sorsis: well i ask because i tried to hookup my projector to my computer yesterday and it would not raise the resolution above 800x600 even after i edited the xorg.conf
[02:08] <Pici> jonathan_: Either open synaptic and search for kubuntu-desktop and install it or go to a terminal and type `sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop`
[02:08] <yobrien> cjaydee: system->preferences->screen resolution
[02:08] <stefg> SleepingSloth: btw, you can (and should) disable screensaving alltogether... save the planet, you know :-)
[02:08] <AnRkey> our community has made me intolerant towards other communities. This # for example is so friendly that I have come to expect the same from other #'s. Maybe we should all drop the friendly, kind and helpful bit down a notch... :)
[02:08] <Azul> installing both gnome and kde is a waste of space
[02:09] <Pici> AnRkey: :P
[02:09] <Pici> AnRkey: He wants both.
[02:09] <Pici> er, Azul ^
[02:09] <cjaydee> yobrien: i can't see the screen... that's my problem
[02:09] <jonathan_> ok
[02:09] <jonathan_> thanks man downloading now
[02:10] <jonathan_> and kubuntu based on debian?
[02:10] <yobrien> !res | cjaydee
[02:10] <ubotu> cjaydee: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[02:10] <Pici> jonathan_: kubuntu is just ubuntu with KDE, which is based on Debian
[02:10] <stefg> !debian | jonathan_
[02:10] <ubotu> jonathan_: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[02:10] <gilster> hello, i had done this before in visudo but cant remember:  i want timeout stamp for sudo sessions gone. I want to ALWAYS be promted for root password by sudo?
[02:11] <SleepingSloth> stefg: I agree - it's a mate who is having this problem, not me...
[02:11] <JLSDATASTORAGE> Jonathan Could someone help me out with a good download of ubunt it seems that the MD5 sum dont get right after downloading different locations.
[02:11] <AnRkey> jonathan_, all ubuntu flavours are based on debian
[02:11] <jonathan_> sure ubotu ;)
[02:11] <cjaydee> thanls
[02:11] <cjaydee> thanks
[02:11] <SleepingSloth> stefg: and he's using LCD screens... so it's pointless anyway - I think it was more just looking at what screensavers were available, and *crash*
[02:11] <jonathan_> including xubuntu and edubuntu
[02:11] <Pici> !bot | jonathan_
[02:11] <ubotu> jonathan_: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[02:11] <jonathan_> he2
[02:12] <jonathan_> still 54%???
[02:12] <jonathan_> long way to go
[02:12] <stefg> SleepingSloth: yeah, the fixing for the notorious PEBKAC-bug is slow in most linux-distros...
[02:12] <gilster> so can anyone help with visudo tags for sudoers?
[02:13] <stefg> !sudo
[02:13] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:13] <padee> szia everyone. does anyone know how to cancel a timed shutdown (sudo shutdown -h -P +30) ??
[02:13] <jonathan_> !sudo
[02:13] <bodhi> i have nvidia, just installed Ubuntu 7.04, upgraded kernel, now "glxinfo" gives errors and enabling 3D accel messes everything up at boot-up
[02:13] <jonathan_> what the means of sudo -s -H?
[02:14] <jonathan_> I don't understand with
[02:14] <jonathan_> -d
[02:14] <jonathan_> -s
[02:14] <jonathan_> -h
[02:14] <jonathan_> -t
[02:14] <jonathan_> -r
[02:14] <gilster> i need help with sudoers
[02:14] <gilster> ?
[02:14] <Monty|Sle> i am authd lol :o
[02:14] <Pici> jonathan_: Check out the sudo manpage `man sudo`
[02:14] <Monteh> oh well i am now lol
[02:15] <A[D] minS> !glxinfo
[02:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about glxinfo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:15] <stefg> jonathan_: may i point you to the !faq and suggest you /msg ubotu . This will give you a private window to the bot so you can explore the bots brain without interrupting the channel flow
[02:15] <keck0f> TakeOut{u}, nomasteryoda: thanx for hints. i do not want to install more packages than necessary. an X-Server installation is not necessary to allow remote users to run x-applications. There package "xlogo" or "xterm" do not depend on a X-server... but they depend on the libx11-6 ...
[02:17] <kempoller> Where is the correct place to put 'setkeycodes *** ***' variables to correct missing hotkeys? I have a lenovo laptop so I appended them to /usr/share/hotkey-seup/lenovo.hk. Safest place?
[02:18] <MattJ> Is there a way to find out what package a file belongs to?
[02:18] <Frogzoo> MattJ: dpkg -S filename
[02:18] <stefg> uhhhh... far to smart a question... you know keytouch, kempoller ?
[02:18] <MattJ> Frogzoo: Great thanks, I knew it must be somewhere :)
[02:19] <kempoller> stefg , I don't know keytouch
[02:19] <keck0f> i've installed ubuntu-6.06.1-server-amd64 and have run "apt-get install openssh-server xterm", why can't run xterm remotely? I get error "The X11 forwarding request was rejected!", why?
[02:19] <stefg> !keytouch
[02:19] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[02:20] <Smiley> hi guys, atm im running LTS, but want to change to the newest version.... what do i change to allow it to update?
[02:20] <Smiley> !help lts
[02:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about help lts - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:20] <kempoller> stefg, i know where to set them after, this is to get them recognised in the first place
[02:21] <Pici> !upgrade | Smiley
[02:21] <ubotu> Smiley: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[02:21] <stefg> Smiley: ubuntu doesn't support skipping versions, so you either have to go dapper-> edgy-> feisty, but that#s trouble some. i'd rather use the method outlined in !cloning and do a fresh, clean feisty install
[02:22] <keck0f> Smiley: "update-manager" offers you to upgrade to 6.10
[02:22] <Smiley> stefg: i can't write a CD :<
[02:22] <kempoller> stefg, appending /usr/share/hotkey-setup/lenovo.hk does work, so I guess I'll go with that. just wondering if it was bad idea. Thanks for your help
[02:22] <stefg> kempoller: im no FHS specialist, but your suggestion sounds sensible
[02:22] <Bassetts> when i have a few albums in the play queue and i have shuffle on rhythmbox just plays the next track
[02:23] <stefg> Smiley: USB-stick?
[02:23] <Smiley> stefg: hum, even that page doesn't say what i need to enter to disable the LTS stuff... at hte moment it wont even show me hte update.
[02:23] <Smiley> stefg: fail. :(
[02:23] <gilster> so can anyone help me with sudoers tags?
[02:23] <kempoller> stefg, thanks for your thoughts :)
[02:23] <Smiley> Ah now i see thanks :)
[02:23] <CyberMad> how to open PDF file on firefox it self? without opening Document Viewer
[02:24] <vbabiy> CyberMad: you can install the adobe plug-in

[02:25] <stefg> Smiley: if you're not in a hurry (read: 6 weeks of patience) you can have a Fesity CD sent to you by !shipit
[02:25] <CyberMad> vbabiy thanks
[02:26] <vbabiy> No problem CyberMad
[02:26] <kelvie> does ubuntu come with an IRC client?
[02:26] <vbabiy> kelvie: yes xchat
[02:26] <kelvie> .. and does it automatically come to this chann? :P
[02:27] <_Ahti_> vbabiy: its not pre-installed
[02:27] <kelvie> ah.. is one pre-installed?
[02:27] <stefg> Smiley: and consider: never change a running system. Dapper is actually quite stable and proven now. If everything works, why upgrade? Edgy/Feisty have some new features which can cause trouble with wifi, network or some mobos
[02:27] <_Ahti_> kelvie: Nope
[02:27] <kelvie> I know kubuntu has one preinstalled and goes straight to the kubuntu channel
[02:27] <vbabiy> kelvie: sudo apt-get install xchat-gnome
[02:27] <_Ahti_> kelvie: GAIM has an IRC Client included
[02:27] <_Ahti_> and GAIM comes pre-installed
[02:27] <vbabiy> kelvie: if you install that it will go right to gnome
[02:27] <kelvie> yeah my friend's installing a language pack atm so she can't install anything new
[02:28] <kelvie> until that's done
[02:28] <CyberMad> i tried running wine Dict.exe from terminal and it's works.. but why when i tried it from shortcut it return some error, the software is opened but there is error message that dictionary database can not be read
[02:28] <kane77> how can I store secretly my passwords (bank account info etc.)?
[02:28] <vbabiy> CyberMad: is it calling wine Dict.exe in the shortcut
[02:29] <kelvie> kane77: I use encfs
[02:29] <CyberMad> vbabiy no, i tried these:
[02:29] <stefg> !info gnome-keyring-manager | kane77
[02:29] <ubotu> kane77: gnome-keyring-manager: keyring management program for the GNOME desktop. In component main, is optional. Version 2.18.0-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 84 kB, installed size 1624 kB
[02:29] <jonathan_> what is internic network?
[02:29] <CyberMad> wine /home/user/.wine/drive_c/Dict/Dict.exe   ,then  wine /home/user/.wine/drive_c/Dict/Dict.exe
[02:30] <CyberMad> sorry the 2nd is wine "C:\Dict\Dict.exe"
[02:30] <CyberMad> but both return error.. it's strange because if i do it from terminal, there is no error message
[02:31] <kane77> stefg, kelvie, is it possible to have some files encrypted in such a way that when I open them in an application (be it OOffice or homebank) it would ask for a password and if it;s correct then opens them?
[02:31] <stefg> CyberMad: #winehq ?
[02:31] <lenny64600> hey all
[02:31] <stefg> kane77: have a look at gpg
[02:31] <kelvie> kane77: hrm.. not in encfs, no
[02:31] <stefg> !info gpg | kane77
[02:31] <CyberMad> ok thanks
[02:31] <ubotu> kane77: Package gpg does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[02:31] <yobrien> CyberMad: probably coz wine changes to the exe dir before running ... or c:\windows
[02:32] <kane77> stefg, I had some gpg stuff installed before but I couldnt make much of it :/
[02:32] <vbabiy> CyberMad: what is the error you are getting
[02:32] <mwe> !info gnupg
[02:32] <ubotu> gnupg: GNU privacy guard - a free PGP replacement. In component main, is important. Version 1.4.6-1ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 889 kB, installed size 4588 kB
[02:33] <CyberMad> vbabiy can not the dictionary database
[02:33] <stefg> kane77: it has some learning curve
[02:33] <_Ahti_> How can i monitor whats going on in my ssh-server?
[02:33] <mwe> _Ahti_: log files
[02:33] <_Ahti_> mwe: live...?
[02:33] <CyberMad> vbabiy can not read..
[02:33] <stefg> _Ahti_: netstat?
[02:33] <CyberMad> or open it
[02:33] <Bassetts> what is a good music player with a play queue that does random playback well?
[02:33] <_Ahti_> stefg: i'll try
[02:33] <kelvie> Bassetts: amaroK!
[02:33] <vbabiy> CyberMad: there is something wrong with the shortcut it is linking to the wrong location
[02:34] <stefg> !player | Bassetts
[02:34] <ubotu> Bassetts: Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[02:34] <crish> HI all.. i'm using Ubuntu 6.06.. and i'm new to it.. i installed the VLC player.. but its not playing wmv files.. can anyone help me out with this??
[02:34] <kane77> Bassetts, amarok is cool..
[02:34] <mwe> _Ahti_: tail -f /var/log/syslog
[02:34] <stefg> !win32codecs | crish
[02:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about win32codecs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:34] <kenkku> hi, I tried to remove an old fedora partition with qtparted in the livecd and now kubuntu won't boot, says error 17
[02:34] <stefg> !w32codecs | crish
[02:34] <ubotu> crish: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[02:34] <vbabiy> stefg: you beat me to it
[02:34] <_Ahti_> mwe: Thank you :)
[02:35] <crish> ubotu: thanks.. will check that link now
[02:35] <vbabiy> lol
[02:35] <mwe> _Ahti_: it will show what else is going on the server as well, though
[02:35] <Bassetts> stefg, i was looking for recommendations, but thanks =D
[02:35] <stefg> !botsnack
[02:35] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[02:35] <_Ahti_> mwe: :)
[02:35] <_Ahti_> haha. ubotu is great
[02:36] <CyberMad> someone at winehq answer my question: <Exy|DT> That's because you should always chdir to the folder where the app is before running it
[02:36] <stefg> Bassetts: i tend to agree that amaroK is pretty much the best player currently... consider exaile if you want something similar, but more gnome centric
[02:36] <kenkku> does anyone know what grub error 17 stands for?
[02:36] <ceil420> !paste
[02:36] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[02:36] <vbabiy> CyberMad: thanks for coming back and letting us no of the solution
[02:36] <chrisjs169> ok, is there any way i can test my ubuntu box for like browser hijacking or something?  yesterday both Google.com and Digg.com showed only HitboxGateway[version number]  and today i'm getting redirected to Japanese sites.  It only lasts for around three minutes, but during that time, wget is fine
[02:36] <stefg> kenkku: google?
[02:37] <kelvie> nancypants: like this
[02:37] <Bassetts> stefg, i was getting the impression amaroK is on top but exaile also seems to have alot of fans
[02:37] <kenkku> stefg: believe me, I have tried >P
[02:37] <kenkku> different sources say different things
[02:37] <deep`> Can i 'give' a network card an eth-interface? When i do ifup, it sais 'eth1 cannot be found', but i have 3 networkcards in my computer. All are listed in lspci.
[02:37] <vbabiy> chrisjs169: try to do a ping see if you are hitting google server
[02:37] <stefg> kenkku: not hard enough, it seems... #17 is partion error ( i know that from memory)
[02:37] <stefg> !grub | kenkku
[02:38] <ubotu> kenkku: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[02:38] <_Ahti_> Bassetts: Ah amaroK is the best... and if you don't have a problem running KDE apps under GNOME, then you should definately use amaroK
[02:38] <kenkku> stefg: thank you, I will look into those for now
[02:38] <stefg> kenkku: have you shifted around partitions?
[02:38] <ceil420> can someone tell me why it is that before a restart, i could access most files on a hard drive, but not all of them; then after a restart, even BIOS lists the HD as an "unknown device"? -_-
[02:38] <_Ahti_> Bassetts: Personally, i dislike running KDE apps under GNOME and vice versa
[02:38] <Bassetts> _Ahti_, ditto
[02:38] <kenkku> stefg: no, qtparted didn't let me
[02:39] <mwe> _Ahti_: oh you might need to tail -f /var/log/auth.log instead
[02:39] <stefg> kenkku: so are you on Live-CD now?
[02:39] <kenkku> stefg: I only removed one partition and I got this error. now i recreated an empty one in the free space
[02:39] <_Ahti_> mwe: Yeah? ok
[02:39] <kenkku> stefg: yes
[02:39] <eregi> koollman: :?
[02:39] <stefg> kenkku: so open a term, run 'sudo grub'
[02:39] <_Ahti_> mwe: Thanks
[02:40] <kenkku> stefg: ok, done
[02:40] <stefg> kenkku: enter 'find /boot/grub/stage1' and tell me what turns up
[02:40] <chrisjs169> vbabiy: i pinged the last site that it happened to, and it was the same as the ip that showed when i pinged it from another computer (different network)
[02:40] <Bassetts> what can i use to tag mp3s?
[02:41] <kenkku> stefg: hd0,4
[02:41] <vbabiy> chrisjs169: then you are hitting the correct server
[02:41] <kenkku> stefg: I have no idea if this helps, but grub gave the error in stage1.5
[02:42] <stefg> kenkku: ok, enter 'root (hd0,4)' and then 'setup (hd0)'... we'll deal with that error later
[02:42] <kenkku> stefg: done, seemed to go ok
[02:43] <chrisjs169> vbabiy: yes, that's kind of why i think there's a problem with my browser...as i said before, wget/links works, but Opera/Firefox don't
[02:43] <stefg> kenkku: i'd suggest to try a reboot now... if it stills doesn't work, come back on Live CD
[02:43] <vbabiy> chrisjs169: its on both opera and firefox
[02:43] <kenkku> stefg: ok, will be right back..
[02:43] <arghh> how do i remove automatix?
[02:44] <chrisjs169> vbabiy: for the three or so minutes that this occurs, yes
[02:44] <stefg> arghh: be reinstalling :-)
[02:44] <tyranis> how do I set my root password?
[02:44] <vbabiy> chrisjs169: no idea that is way over my head
[02:44] <stefg> !root | tyranis
[02:44] <ubotu> tyranis: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[02:44] <yobrien> chrisjs169: no proxy setting?
[02:44] <arghh> stefg: reinstalling ubuntu? or automatix?
[02:44] <vbabiy> and i got to go to work so see you guys later
[02:44] <chrisjs169> yobrien: nope
[02:45] <AngryElf_> Is there I can get updates to download automatically and then prompt for installation?
[02:45] <tyranis> thankyou
[02:45] <stefg> arghh: ubuntu... automatix is considered as a not curable desease
[02:45] <yobrien> chrisjs169: what happens if you type in the ip address?
[02:45] <hwilde> hey where is the sound file that plays on boot up?
[02:46] <yobrien> hwilde: /usr/share/sounds ... or something
[02:46] <chrisjs169> yobrien: the ip address works, but as I mentioned before, both browsers only 'redirect' for three to five minutes before 'working normally'
[02:47] <stefg> chrisjs169: DNS -trouble?
[02:47] <arghh> hrm just managed to uninstall it lol
[02:47] <yobrien> chrisjs169: could be a dns issue if the ip address works but typing the dns name dont work ... could
[02:47] <TTRanger_> When downloading new items, such as source code, is there a standard defacto place where things like that should be initially unpacked?
[02:48] <stefg> TTRanger_: /usr/src
[02:48] <arghh> now for next question, after upgrading from 6.06>6.10>7.04, alot of my icons in my menus are missing, any help?
[02:48] <stefg> !FHS
[02:48] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[02:48] <A[D] minS> GLX version: 1.2
[02:48] <chrisjs169> stefg: that's what i originally thought, but i don't see how wget and links wouldn't have a problem, only opera/firefox
[02:48] <A[D] minS> how i can upgrade to 1.3 ?
[02:49] <stefg> chrisjs169: bhine (transparent) proxy?
[02:49] <stefg> chrisjs169: behind (transparent) proxy?
[02:49] <TTRanger_> stefg, tx
[02:49] <chrisjs169> stefg: not that i know of - this computer's connected directly to the dsl modem
[02:49] <arghh> after upgrading from 6.06>6.10>7.04, alot of my icons in my menus are missing, any help?
[02:50] <TTRanger_> stefg, I don't seem to have the necessary permissions to extract to that location.   Does that mean I am not logged in as the usr?  Strange.
[02:51] <stefg> chrisjs169: your ISP might put you behind one... get some alternative dns servers and check, if the problem still persists if you use them
[02:51] <chrisjs169> stefg: ok, verizon's dns servers always have been horrible...
[02:51] <kenkku> stefg: ok, tried it, grub works but when I try to load the ubuntu partition, says error 17
[02:52] <kenkku> stefg: windows xp partition seemed to work
[02:52] <Bassetts> stefg, i tried exaile but my multimedia keys do not work with it
[02:52] <stefg> TTRanger_: unpacking might be restricted to root. you can safely sudo chmod 775 /usr/src && sudo chown root:admin /usr/src . If you are memeber of admin rthen you can write to tahe dir
[02:53] <TTRanger_> stefg,  thanks I'll try it
[02:54] <TTRanger_> stefg,  Otherwise, what is the generally safe "playground" area where the person who is logged into the system can just get files stored and work on them?
[02:54] <stefg> kenkku: your partition numbering shifted (the new partition prolly got a higher number than the one before)... give me a listing of sudo fdisk -l at !pastebin as mentioned in /topic
[02:54] <H3lp> hello everyone
[02:54] <H3lp> can anyone help me out editing my ppo connection settings
[02:54] <kenkku> stefg: k, momento
[02:55] <H3lp> i just a call by my isp to change my account's name
[02:55] <H3lp> i dunno how to do tht
[02:55] <stefg> TTRanger_: any arbitrary dir in his ~ (home)
[02:55] <czester> Hello
[02:55] <TTRanger_> ok, so home is fair game...good thanks
