[06:22] <Gman99999> I can't get AWN to Work in KDE I have both gnome and kde installed on my laptop, how the heck can i even get it to load?
[06:22] <_numbers_> what is the best movie player for ubuntu ?? one that plays smooth
[06:22] <Le^stat> ta
[06:23] <Gheym> mplayer
[06:23] <LSD|Ninja> sarthor: b43 is the new one I believe
[06:23] <mrmiggidude> Ninja: How do i do that?
[06:23] <mrmiggidude> Loopback?
[06:23] <SNuxoll> _numbers_: mplayer
[06:23] <carandraug> StudentDriver, but always check the man pages of that command to check
[06:23] <_numbers_> ty
[06:23] <Dillo_of_Faeo> can anyone help with video/imaging problems?
[06:23] <sarthor> LSD|Ninja, yes. i installed b43-wcutter i think.
[06:23] <carandraug> _numbers_, mplayer
[06:23] <bobertdos> Dillo_of_Faeo: Ask away
[06:23] <_numbers_> does it have playlist features?
[06:23] <sarthor> LSD|Ninja, so will it be my driver name to write in my kismet.conf??
[06:23] <alistair> hal_v2, sorry make that Faststone image viewer if you like I can send you the installer?
[06:23] <StudentDriver> carandraug, so I wouldn't necessarily use "-v" without checking if it is supported, correct?
[06:24] <goodbyegravity> Le^stat: It's probably libgtk2.0-dev
[06:24] <RequinB4> Why don't all webservers use SSL
[06:24] <carandraug> _numbers_, yes. You may want to try the SMplayer skin
[06:24] <_numbers_> thnx
[06:24] <nicholaspaul> Anyone know how i can delete all temp files? I remember someone once told me of a command that could do that...
[06:24] <SNuxoll> RequinB4: because it requires them to buy a SSL cert , and uses up extra bandwidth
[06:24] <SNuxoll> nicholaspaul: just reboot your machine, that'll clear all of them
[06:24] <nicholaspaul> particularly, old kernels
[06:24] <SNuxoll> nicholaspaul: old kernels aren't temp files...
[06:24] <nicholaspaul> SNuxoll: yea? cool thx
[06:24] <hal_v2> alistair, I can get it. So xnview is a no go? 'Cause I'm downloading it right now.
[06:25] <Le^stat> ta
[06:25] <SNuxoll> nicholaspaul: temp files == anything in /tmp
[06:25] <Dillo_of_Faeo> randomly (it seems), my graphics gets wonky and during video playback, vertical bands appear across the whole screen.  This only happens when using stand-alone players, and not web embedded video.
[06:25] <nicholaspaul> SNuxoll: so how can i del. the unused kernels?
[06:25] <LSD|Ninja> sarthor: I don't know, I've never used kisment. If I were to guess though I'd say probably not. My guess would be what framework you use for wireless in general which I believe is wext (wireless extensions) for most native drivers
[06:25] <StudentDriver> carandraug, would there be any danger in re-doing my driver installs as I'm not sure if they took?
[06:25] <carandraug> StudentDriver, yes. Search the man page of the command to see if -v activates verbose mode. In can do something else, you never know. ALso remember that it's case sensitive so -v is different that -V
[06:25] <SNuxoll> nicholaspaul: you remove them with apt, aptitude, or synaptic
[06:25] <_numbers_> carandraug smplayer skin is not in the list can i sudo apt-get install smplayer skin ?
[06:25] <alistair> hal_v2, no totally the wrong one - Faststone is way better by far once youve used that you will likely throw everything else away :-)
[06:25] <nicholaspaul> SNuxoll: ok, that makes sense. Its all coming back to me! (its been a long day...) thx
[06:25] <StudentDriver> carandraug, i have noticed that stuff is case sensitive
[06:25] <bobertdos> nicholaspaul: If you really want to, you can use apt-get or Synaptic to remove old kernel images. Also, sudo apt-get clean (in the terminal) will clear the package cache.
[06:26] <carandraug> _numbers_, I'm pretty sure you can find it in synaptic
[06:26] <RequinB4> SNuxoll: Why must they "buy" a SSL cert - why can't they just make one and what gives businesses who sell SSL certs the ability to make them?
[06:26] <dn4> where can I get gnaural?
[06:26] <_numbers_> carandraug ok thnx
[06:26] <nicholaspaul> bobertdos: thanks !!
[06:26] <dumbdum> How do i format a HDD with ext3?
[06:26] <SNuxoll> RequinB4: you can't 'trust' a self signed SSL certificate
[06:26] <goodbyegravity> RequinB4: It's like making your own drivers license.
[06:26] <SNuxoll> RequinB4: since you didn't have a trusted 3rd party issue it
[06:26] <hal_v2> alistair, work on wine?
[06:26] <LSD|Ninja> dumbdum: mkfs.ext2 -j /dev/drivepartition
[06:26] <SNuxoll> RequinB4: goodbyegravity's analogy was spot on
[06:27] <carandraug> StudentDriver, I don't think there's any danger in redoing it but I don't know the commands. Just give a try to see if it's working or not before redoing it
[06:27] <alistair> hal_v2, actually thats what Im doing now as soon as I get the file Ill try it and let you know
[06:27] <hal_v2> K.
[06:27] <RequinB4> Ok, so I as the user have no idea if the SSL cert they made up will actually protect me?  I still don't understand the workings of it but i guess it makes sense
[06:27] <LSD|Ninja> mrmiggidude: sorry, completely forgot to pass this on: http://www.walkernews.net/2007/08/19/how-to-mount-and-read-cd-iso-image-in-linux/
[06:27] <mrmiggidude> Thank you!
[06:27] <mrmiggidude> Where do I access my screenlets?
[06:28] <daztronik> self signed SSL certs encrypt the data exactly the same as vendor-signed, you are paying for the big sticker that says "a recognised organisation is certifying this certificate as belonging to a particular server"
[06:28] <hal_v2> Yeah, it works on wine
[06:28] <bobertdos> dumbdum: gparted could probably take care of that
[06:28] <StudentDriver> carandraug, ok I think i'll try that. I know for sure that my wireless drivers aren't working so I'll probably be redoing those. I believe I asked this question before but I might have missed your response: is there any way to check if my video drivers are installed correctly?
[06:28] <SNuxoll> daztronik: which is half the reason self-signed certs are bad
[06:29] <SNuxoll> daztronik: SSL certs aren't just used to encrypt data, they are used to verify the other party
[06:29] <dmsuperman_>  help! my tty is 100% black, no text shown. my bootup also doesn't show anything when normally it would give me a detailed report of everything it's doing
[06:29] <daztronik> correct
[06:29]  * BiohazardSteven slaps ultracheese around a bit with a large trout
[06:29] <StudentDriver> carandraug, without being able to check the verbose option as I've already restarted a couple of times
[06:29] <daztronik> where they were designed to encrypt traffic originally :P
[06:29] <mrmiggidude> Where can I access my screenlets, anyone?
[06:29] <bobertdos> StudentDriver: which drivers?
[06:29] <dumbdum> Thanks bobertdos!
[06:29] <SNuxoll> daztronik: they were designed to protect confidential information
[06:30] <StudentDriver> bobertdos, my video and cpu scaling drivers. I'm using an HP2133
[06:30] <RequinB4> ok, so it's like a secure telephone connection -- you aren't 100% (as much as you trust the third party, that is) sure that the server with the cert is the legit server you want
[06:30] <SNuxoll> daztronik: part of that is verifying who you are going to send the data too, especially with stuff like credit card numbers
[06:30] <Kuprin> so then...what IS a good laptop for Ubuntu these days?
[06:30] <daztronik> SNuxoll: yep yep
[06:30] <goodbyegravity> Kuprin: I <3 my ASUS W5FM
[06:30] <Omlette> I hear Lenovo is good, too.
[06:30] <StudentDriver> bobertdos, if I were using windows I reckon that I'd be able to see that my video isn't installed correctly because it would look like garbage
[06:31] <dn4> why doesn't ubuntu have gnaural in the repository?
[06:31] <goodbyegravity> IBM contribute a lot to Linux now.  I think freetype is maintained by one of their guys.
[06:31] <StudentDriver> but I can't see any recognizable difference since I installed the drivers
[06:31] <RequinB4> Snuxoll: Ok, so it's like me emailing someone and asking "are you sure you're really my freind and not an impersonator" and he/she replies "Of course"
[06:31] <bobertdos> StudentDriver: Well, my first suggestion would be to look at the output of glxinfo in the terminal, for video.
[06:31] <carandraug> StudentDriver, you can have several drivers to make them work. You can use the open source or the propiertary ones. By the default it comes with the open source. What's your graphics card?
[06:32] <SNuxoll> RequinB4: exactly
[06:32] <dumbdum> hey bobertdos, do you know how I could clone my laptop hdd, I have a windoze Xp partition and a Mint Linux partition. I want to change my 40 gig drive to a 160 gig.
[06:32] <RequinB4> sweet
[06:32] <StudentDriver> carandraug, good question...I believe I'll have to look that up again.\
[06:32] <carandraug> StudentDriver, search in lshw for it
[06:33] <mrmiggidude> Screenlets, anyone?
[06:33] <s0ulstice> Hey guys, I have a wireless Netgear Card and I can't seem to get it to be recognized either in windows or linux... more important that it runs in linux anyhow... anyone have any ideas?
[06:33] <mrmiggidude> Can someone help me find where to get screenlets.
[06:33] <mrmiggidude> or where to access them
[06:33] <s0ulstice> !pastebin
[06:33] <Dillo_of_Faeo> what would cause vertical bands to appear on the screen during video playback?
[06:33] <Gman99999> AWN won't start on my desktop does anyone know why?
[06:33] <bastid_raZor> mrmiggidude; gdesklets perhaps?
[06:33] <carandraug> StudentDriver, the open source drivers will probably get you image. Unless you stumble upon some graphics problems you shouldn't try to use the proprietary ones
[06:33] <Gman99999> Im using KDE
[06:33] <BiohazardSteven> hey
[06:34] <Iodous> hi, i need some help
[06:34] <mrmiggidude> bastid: Nuh uh.
[06:34] <Iodous> hello...
[06:34] <dn4> configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[06:34] <s0ulstice> Here is my pastebin from lspci: http://paste.ubuntu.com/38702/
[06:34] <dn4> when I do ./configure
[06:34] <dn4> ideas?
[06:34] <bobertdos> dumbdum: Well, partimage (that we talked about yesterday) wouldn't quite do it because the partition sizes have to match with each other. So, I would suggest using a Live session to mount those partitions and just completely copy them from one to the other. I like using external hard drives for that kind of thing.
[06:34] <Iodous> i need heeeellllooooo
[06:35] <s0ulstice> you need hello?
[06:35] <Iodous> hhhheeeeellllllppppp
[06:35] <StudentDriver> carandraug: is there any particular reason for that? it's actually an IGP
[06:35] <Iodous> i ment lol
[06:35] <bobertdos> lodous: How may we help you?
[06:35] <Iodous> im trying to watch a movie
[06:35] <StudentDriver> carandraug: Chrome9 HC IGP
[06:35] <Iodous> on ubuntu 8.04
[06:36] <bobertdos> !dvd | lodous
[06:36] <Gman99999> bobertdos how do you check error messages?
[06:36] <leo> what filetype is your movie? or is it a DVD?
[06:36] <Iodous> and it says The playback of the movie requires a DVD source plugin which is not installed
[06:36] <Gheym> anybody need help with wifi?
[06:36] <Iodous> its a movie
[06:36] <dumbdum> Yes, I used Gparted to copy the windows partition but the Linux partition wont copy!
[06:36] <s0ulstice> Gheym, Sure I do .. I am not sure if my wireless card is being recognized
[06:37] <Gheym> gparted? what about fdisk?
[06:37] <bobertdos> Gman99999: Most system logs are located in /var/log
[06:37] <Gheym> you could even cop out and use cfdisk
[06:37] <bobertdos> Gman99999: You generally start by reading those.
[06:37] <carandraug> StudentDriver, if there's a reason to choose open source instead of proprietary software? There's a whole philosophy about it. The one that drives Linux.  You should use a Live session to do that.
[06:38] <carandraug> StudentDriver, ok. Don't touch the video drivers. It should be working fine by default with the open-source
[06:38] <s0ulstice> Gheym, wanna help??
[06:38] <Gheym> sure
[06:38] <dumbdum> Hey, bobertdos, I forgot to tell you my Ubuntu is working perfectly!! Dont ask 'cause I dont know!!
[06:39] <s0ulstice> Gheym, Ive pasted my output from lspci here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/38702/
[06:39] <dumbdum> Yes i used the "live gpated' Cd
[06:39] <ioio> anyone here
[06:39] <travers> yeah so linux's "open source" philosophy is pretty much take what ya can, give nothing back--binary blobs throughout the tree etc
[06:39] <bobertdos> dumbdum: Oh I see. Well, that's good
[06:39] <StudentDriver> carandraug, should I do anything if I've already played with it before having this chat?
[06:39] <dn4> http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=gnaural  <--- Where is hardy support?
[06:39] <carandraug> StudentDriver, there's more to it than just easier support. Ever heard of Richard Stallman? Take a look at wikipedia and read something about open-source
[06:39] <macvr> hi, i'm trying to report a bug for my touchpad[this is my first time]. in the debugging procedures, it is given to attach 6 separate files to the bug report, but in the launchpad bug report site there seems to be an option to attach only 1 file, am i doing this correctly?
[06:39] <travers> open source also does not equal FSF & GNU
[06:40] <carandraug> StudentDriver, if it ain't broken, don't try to fix it ;)
[06:40] <bobertdos> ioio: What's up?
[06:40] <leo> but then how do you mod things?
[06:40] <zero__> hey, how do im trying to install a 2 disc game, but i cant unmount the first disc, how do i do it?
[06:40] <dumbdum> I still have the problem of the files in the garbage bin but all else is great!
[06:40] <StudentDriver> carandraug, that's what I was hoping you'd say
[06:41] <bobertdos> dumbdum: You know, I never did ask you, if you use-> ls .local/share/Trash does it list everything in there?
[06:41] <Dillo_of_Faeo> Is there a way to active following the processes so I can "watch" xOrg working when I play a video?
[06:41] <Dillo_of_Faeo> ' from the command line, I mean
[06:41] <dumbdum> I'll check!
[06:41] <goodbyegravity> tail -f /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:42] <zero__> hey, how do im trying to install a 2 disc game, but i cant unmount the first disc, how do i do it?
[06:42] <Dillo_of_Faeo> thanks
[06:42] <dumbdum> It says "files info" (in purple)
[06:42] <seangrove> hey all, what does everyone use for SLOC on linux?

[06:45] <malberto> tok, this wil be the problem man !
[06:45] <hitman1985> ok who do i ask about sound issues with hardy ?
[06:45] <carandraug> !ru | tok
[06:45] <dumbdum> It comes back with this   ~/.local/share/Trash/files$
[06:45] <bobertdos> hitman1985: Um, us?
[06:46] <hitman1985> kk
[06:46] <StudentDriver> carandraug, thanks for your help. I'm going to try and get my wireless working.
[06:46] <bobertdos> dumbdum: Now type ls, see if anything's in there.
[06:46] <hitman1985> i got a dell dimension 4600 and onboard 5.1 realtek chip
[06:46] <dumbdum> yes it lists those folders.
[06:46] <hitman1985> installed pulse audio since then nothing works no more :(
[06:46] <carandraug> StudentDriver, that's okay. Don't know much about wireless other than pointing out links to you
[06:47] <mib_rc8ee9> 	http://data-rescue-linux.qarchive.org/ has a list of data recovery tools for linux, I haven't tried any of them. only had to deal with that kind of situation with Win/Mac
[06:47] <bobertdos> dumbdum: Okay, try the removal from here then-> sudo rm -irf .
[06:47] <StudentDriver> carandraug, well it was more than I had before so I'm grateful.
[06:47] <dmsuperman_>  I can't get /quit
[06:47] <dmsuperman_> woops
[06:47] <bobertdos> hitman1985: In Hardy?
[06:48] <macvr> hi, i'm trying to report a bug for my touchpad[this is my first time]. in the debugging procedures, it is given to attach 6 separate files to the bug report, but in the launchpad bug report site there seems to be an option to attach only 1 file, am i doing this correctly?
[06:48] <hitman1985> yes 8.04
[06:48] <bobertdos> hitman1985: Why did you install Pulseaudio when Hardy already comes with it?
[06:48] <hitman1985> it said it in one of the tutorials :(
[06:48] <bobertdos> hitman1985: for what?
[06:49] <hitman1985> for skype sounds
[06:49] <abcde2> any one knows how to install mod_secuirty on kubuntu hardy?
[06:49] <hitman1985> so now i got a panel on the top right what i dont even need
[06:49] <bobertdos> hitman1985: It was probably out of date.
[06:49] <hitman1985> i guess :(
[06:49] <hitman1985> if so then should i just reinstall everything ?
[06:50] <hitman1985> the sound didnt work correctly before eighter
[06:50] <bobertdos> hitman1985: but did it work at all?
[06:50] <dumbdum> No doesnt do anything :-(
[06:50] <hitman1985> i had sound for one app but if ie i got a message on pidgin it would stop all other sounds
[06:50] <hitman1985> at least my skype worked before
[06:50] <keli002> test
[06:51] <hitman1985> now i cant even get the shortcut in the menu bar anymore
[06:51] <hitman1985> if i reinstall skype
[06:51] <chao1> Corrupt HDD - I need a free open source program that preferably has a gui but doesn't have to that can look back through several deletions. I have photos the are trapped in a corrupted partition on a failing hdd. I have tried testdisk, dd, gnuddrescue, photorec with nothing recovered. I have tried fsck and several other cli commands. Can anyone tell me of another tool that I can install that has a gui frontend that is able to look back through several delet
[06:51] <hitman1985> but thats a minor (mostly i need my sound to work 100% )
[06:51] <chao1> :D
[06:51] <chao1> :-?
[06:51] <bobertdos> hitman1985: Pulseaudio is just buggy in general. There's little we can do about it right now. We're all PRAYING that Intrepid improves Pulse.
[06:51] <annie_g> On this computer I have (2) slide-in Hard Drive trays - (1) has Hardy Heron and (1) has Windows XP - When I turn off the Ubuntu HD tray and then boot into Windows my HD tray - My windows always resets my Time ahead by exactly 6 hours - minutes are the same - just the hours jump ahead - Does anyone have an idea what would cause this to happen ? The kernel ? ? ?

[06:52] <xaj> hello all, just got ubuntu to recognize my winmodem and get it to go on the internet. however, whenever i run firefox and visit a site it says that it is in offline mode, how do i put it in online mode?
[06:52] <alistair> Its after doing a bios update
[06:52] <carandraug> annie_g, it has to do whether Linux is usung UCT or the BIOS time
[06:53] <hitman1985> i just now switched since all the vista stuff came up and i was filled up with the ms rip offs
[06:53] <hitman1985> so i built this one up for linux
[06:53] <hitman1985> and hoped that most bugs where gone
[06:53] <bozy> hello,test
[06:53] <hitman1985> i love it how it is, just need minor glitches fixed :)
[06:53] <bobertdos> !hi | bozy
[06:53] <damien> does anyone no where i would got to get a MPEG4 pluging , coz i downloaded a few family guys vids and it will only play audio
[06:54] <carandraug> annie_g, UTC makes sense because it greatly simplifies changing timezones and daylight savings time. localtime is necessary if you dual boot with an operating system such as Windows, that only stores localtime to the hardware clock.
[06:54] <hitman1985> damien get vlc player :)
[06:54] <damien> ok thanks

[06:55] <hitman1985> to help ppl near me get into ubuntu as well
[06:55] <macvr> :'(
[06:55] <sk33t0r> anything else in ubuntu thats as fun to mess around with as screenlets?
[06:55] <carandraug> annie_g, try this (if you use Gnome). Right click in the clock and choose preferences. See if the UTC box is ticked? It shouldn't
[06:56] <sk33t0r> I heart the terminal screenlet
[06:56] <chao1> hitman1985: thats good ;-). howtoforge.com is good
[06:56] <annie_g> carandraug: Wow - that's incredible ! So when I go into BIO's my clock time is write - but when I totally turn off power via a key for tray - My time still changes - this is totally weird.
[06:56] <chao1> among other sites
[06:56] <carpediem> sk33t0r: for me, I'd saw awn
[06:56] <djhash> sk33t0r: you could mess around with Compiz fusion
[06:56] <bobertdos> annie_g: and if the option for UTC isn't even there, there's a file you can edit.
[06:56] <hitman1985> i read stuff in ubuntuforums.com
[06:56] <sk33t0r> yea Ive messed around with that already
[06:57] <hitman1985> but its just to much info for one issue and thats why i basicly did my mistakes so far
[06:57] <annie_g> right
[06:57] <hitman1985> love to have irc working now
[06:57] <sk33t0r> unfortunately my gfx card isnt that great on my laptop so my options are somewhat limited
[06:57] <sk33t0r> ati x300 mobile
[06:57] <annie_g> bobertdos: hang on wiull check.
[06:57] <annie_g> will
[06:58] <carandraug> annie_g, if you use UTC, you can leave the BIOS clock by Greewich that Linux will make the changes without chaging it. Windows needs to change the time in BIOS. That's the problem
[06:58] <hitman1985> is there a quick fix for this mess with my audio devices ?
[06:58] <hitman1985> since i got all that stuff on here twice i guess
[06:58] <hitman1985> i just want it to be like before
[06:58] <hitman1985> :)
[06:59] <macvr> hi, i'm trying to report a bug for my touchpad[this is my first time]. in the debugging procedures, it is given to attach 6 separate files to the bug report, but in the launchpad bug report site there seems to be an option to attach only 1 file, am i doing this correctly?
[06:59] <macvr> :-X
[07:00] <damien> where would i got to get vlc player all i can find is the windows versions
[07:00] <damien> ???
[07:00] <annie_g> carandraug: I checked my clock preference and there is no box or anything that say's "UTC"
[07:00] <djhash> damien: Synaptec
[07:00] <hitman1985> damien one sec i ll show you :)
[07:00] <resin_> damien: try apt-get
[07:00] <damien> thanks
[07:00] <bobertdos> annie_g: Okay, go into a terminal
[07:00] <Guru> Are there any known issues with Lenovo y410 (sound and wireless) ...
[07:00] <annie_g> bobertdos: ok
[07:01] <HackXP> :/
[07:01] <HackXP> :\
[07:01] <annie_g> bobertdos: ok term open
[07:01] <bobertdos> annie_g: From there, type->gksudo gedit /etc/default/rcS
[07:02] <hitman1985> http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ubuntu.html
[07:02] <hitman1985> thats where you find your ubuntu version
[07:02] <annie_g> bobertdos: ok - will cut-n-paste your command - hang on -
[07:02] <bobertdos> annie_g: No, you don't have to
[07:02] <damien> thanks heaps

[07:02] <arquebus> is there a way to find out your disc usage in ubuntu like when you r-click the c drive icon and get the pie chart in windows?
[07:03] <bobertdos> annie_g: Just find where it says UTC = yes, change it to no, save, and exit.
 sytstem - administration - system monitor
[07:03] <arquebus> thx hitman1985
[07:03] <carandraug> bobertdos, that rcS file is nice. All these rc files. I never know where to find what I want. rc.conf Arch and BSD style is much more simpler
[07:03] <hitman1985> :) np
[07:03] <georginavarela> hello to everyone.. im planning to install ubuntu to my macbook.. but i was reading i need to install using grub. because im using windows with bootcamp
[07:04] <hitman1985> first tab will show your available space
[07:04] <georginavarela> how do i use grub while installing.. whatever that is
[07:04] <annie_g> bobertdos: ok already did - have rcS(etc/default) - gedit - window open
[07:04] <bobertdos> carandraug: I had searched FOREVER to find the right file to edit for this problem. I was so happy when I finally found it.
[07:05] <bobertdos> annie_gL Do you see UTC = yes?
[07:05] <bobertdos> annie_g: Do you see UTC = yes?
[07:05] <benner> may i ask a question?
[07:05] <carandraug> bobertdos, in Arch it's everything in one file. No symlink mess
[07:05] <Finnish_> Hi, i bought a new laptop, I'll get it maybe tomorrow. It is HP Pavilion dv5-1035. Anyone around with that laptop?
[07:05] <carandraug> benner, yes you can. That's what this channel is for
[07:05] <Omoikane__> Okay, so am trying to organize my ubuntu desktop. I wanted to move my network settings from the right to the left. There was a divider and I deleted the divider and so my network icon and my battery icon vanished.
[07:06] <annie_g> bobertdos: ok did that and the oter text type window closed and came back to the term window - looks good so far

[07:06] <jitu3485> Hi, I am unable to find module.h in /usr/include/linux/ , can someone tell where to find it ?I am using ubuntu-8.04 hardy
[07:06] <bobertdos> annie_g: and you remembered to save?
[07:06] <benner> can i cut and paste from kwrite?
[07:06] <Guest17019> exit
 all u have to do is click it :)
[07:07] <annie_g> bobertdos: yea - it should be edited and changed - do I need to do a reboot to check ?
[07:07] <bobertdos> carandraug: Wow, that must be nice, but doesn't the file get kind of long then?
 sorry no
[07:07] <damien> yeh but it only gives me an exe file ?
[07:07] <hitman1985> do you know how to open a terminal ?
[07:07] <bobertdos> annie_g: Well, yeah, if you want to. That should fix the problem either way.
[07:07] <georginavarela> hello to everyone.. im planning to install ubuntu to my macbook.. but i was reading i need to install using grub. because im using windows with bootcamp.. so how do i install using grub.. whatever that is. first time installing linux
[07:07] <benner> i am tring to install fire fox 3.0 big problems.
[07:07] <benner> i did get netscape installed.
[07:07] <benner> it works good.
[07:07] <benner> but i am haveing a hard time with firefox 3.0. i have uncompressed it but how do i install it?
[07:07] <benner> i'm missing something.
[07:07] <FloodBot1> benner: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:07] <benner> can you point me in the right direction?
[07:07] <damien> isnt exe. windows based
[07:07] <hitman1985> you dont want exe
[07:07] <annie_g> bobertdos: yes did a save 1st - brings bback some my ol dos in windows stuff
[07:08] <hitman1985> how to i pull someone in a private chat ?
[07:08] <carandraug> bobertdos, not really. And it's full of comments explaining everything
[07:08] <Omoikane__> Okay, so am trying to organize my ubuntu desktop. I wanted to move my network settings from the right to the left. There was a divider and I deleted the divider and so my network icon and my battery icon vanished.
[07:08] <OSUKid7> I'm trying to get NTLM authentication to work in Firefox from Ubuntu... anyone know if that's possible? I believe the firefox side is setup correctly with network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris, but it's not working, and I would think Ubuntu would have to provide the NTLM auth data... any suggestions?
[07:08] <annie_g> bobertdos: Will reboot mind if I let you know if it works?
[07:08] <carandraug> hitman1985, which IRC client are you using? And remember that not everyone likes private message
[07:08] <kiosk> h
[07:09] <bobertdos> annie_g: Yes, please, by all means :)
[07:09] <hitman1985> lostirc
[07:09] <mattzab> Is there any way to restore everything that Ubuntu installs without having to reinstall Ubuntu?
[07:10] <bobertdos> carandraug: You know, I've been using Ubuntu, Fedora, and Solaris for a number of years now. I think I'm about ready to try something like Arch.
[07:10] <carandraug> hitman1985, never used that one. Usually you just search for the nick in the user list and double click on it
[07:10] <hitman1985> hmm
[07:10] <annie_g> bobertdos: ok might be a bit - want to actually reboot Hardy - then sut down Hardy cold - turn off Hardy drive then try my Windows tray - be back soon - thx
[07:10] <hitman1985> any better irc ?
[07:10] <annie_g> shut
[07:10] <hitman1985> what would you recommend ?
[07:10] <carandraug> bobertdos, you'll learn a lot of stuff with Arch. I did
[07:10] <mattzab> I installed and configured it to exactly how I wanted it, but then I ran an orphaned package cleaner and it removed ALOT of stuff... like I don't have sound now and gdebi was missing and all kinds of random stuff was gone
[07:10] <georginavarela> hello to everyone.. im planning to install ubuntu to my macbook.. but i was reading i need to install using grub. because im using windows with bootcamp.. so how do i install using grub.. whatever that is. first time installing linux
[07:10] <carandraug> hitman1985, you can't get better than Xchat
[07:10] <hitman1985> ok
[07:11] <hitman1985> i ll try to get that goin tonight :)
[07:11] <hitman1985> ty
[07:11] <bobertdos> carandraug: So is it pretty much all compiling source?
[07:11] <hitman1985> can i just apt get it ?
[07:11] <mattzab> georginavarela, grub is linux's bootloader
[07:11] <hitman1985> or search
[07:11] <hitman1985> ?
[07:11] <AppleForEat> wait mattzab
[07:11] <mattzab> Yes, AppleForEat?
[07:11] <bobertdos> carandraug: We're getting a bit off topic here, :p
[07:11] <AppleForEat> quickstart
[07:11] <mattzab> quickstart?
[07:12] <AppleForEat> you can back up and restore
[07:12] <carandraug> bobertdos, yes, you're right. Mind if I PM you?
[07:12] <mattzab> is that to solve my problem?
[07:12] <Finnish_> Is ATI Radeon HD 3450 working in ubuntu?
[07:12] <mattzab> I already messed it up though, backing it up won't help at this point...
[07:12] <bobertdos> carandraug: sure thing
[07:12] <Omoikane__> Okay, so am trying to organize my ubuntu desktop. I wanted to move my network settings from the right to the left. There was a divider and I deleted the divider and so my network icon and my battery icon vanished.
[07:12] <mattzab> I've already lost a lot of packages and dependencies, alot of which came with Ubuntu upon install
[07:13] <benner> i'm having a hard time with firefox 3.0
[07:13] <mattzab> I was wondering if there was an apt-get that I could use to get it all back
[07:13] <mattzab> I tried apt-get install ubuntu-desktop but it didn't get me what I need
[07:13] <AppleForEat> http://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=8&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.howtoforge.com%2Fquickstart-the-swiss-army-knife-for-ubuntu-8.04-desktop&ei=d2SqSNriLKKW6wPqi6GEDQ&usg=AFQjCNE_2jAqAsAjb2DHYjB6RYtRaU07ZA&sig2=zw4bQvkzzUOoYBVQtvENxw

[07:23] <bobertdos> annie_g: I've worked with a number of different Unix environments for the past five years.
[07:24] <SebNaitsabes> enzotib: you have to run it from CD or as a VM

[07:24] <SebNaitsabes> enzotib:  and Live CD  well
[07:24] <Jkewlo> i dual boot Ubuntu and Windows
[07:24] <dts> What am I looking at as far as "chat"?

[07:24] <SebNaitsabes> enzotib: and try like that
[07:24] <Jkewlo> and went to boot back into windows

[07:26] <SebNaitsabes> enzotib:  well you can do that,  or just select Ubuntu
[07:26] <Ape3000> Is there a way to have network users with Ubuntu? So they would have the homes and login details on network.
[07:27] <mattzab> are there # symbols before those?
[07:27] <alistair> mattzab, no, why?
[07:27] <enzotib> SebNaitsabes, thank you very much
[07:27] <Jkewlo> well i get the blue screen of death
[07:27] <dmsuperman_> dstrbdfrk: See http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/GRUB#Error_18
[07:27] <mattzab> your username is familiar
[07:27] <Jkewlo> i had another one that worked
[07:27] <Jkewlo> and itsnot working now
[07:27] <SebNaitsabes> enzotib: also you can try KDE in the same way
[07:27] <dmsuperman_> Ape3000: just mount the /home dir via nfs ?
[07:27] <Jkewlo> not even there got pasted over with title		Ubuntu 7.10, memtest86+
[07:27] <dsmith_> well, I am not allowed to use ubuntu in the office no more.. LAME IT nazis
[07:27] <dsmith_> :(
[07:28] <enzotib> SebNaitsabes, i imagine kubuntu-desktop pkg, right?
[07:28] <dmsuperman_> dsmith_: that's why you just get cool IT group like mine
[07:28] <Ape3000> dmsuperman_: But can the users then login?
[07:28] <dmsuperman_> dsmith_: or just kill them
[07:28] <dsmith_> heh...
[07:28] <SebNaitsabes> enzotib: for KDE3 as for KD34 though that's something else
[07:28] <s0ulstice> Any reason my wireless card would have the lights turned on, but not be recognized by lspci??
[07:28] <SebNaitsabes> !find
[07:28] <SebNaitsabes> !find kde4-core
[07:28] <dmsuperman_> Ape3000: try it. worst case scenario, boot into recovery and remove the mount point and go back to local filesystem
[07:28] <Ape3000> dmsuperman_: Do I need to mount also the passwd or something from network?
[07:28] <SebNaitsabes> !kde4-core
[07:28] <dstrbdfrk> my ubuntu wont load can anyone help ?????
[07:28] <SebNaitsabes> enzotib:  kde4-core it seems
[07:28] <dmsuperman_> Ape3000: or try googling
[07:29] <Jkewlo> can someone pm me.. for some help
[07:29] <Jkewlo> im lost...
[07:29] <dsmith_> dmsuperman_: well, honestly I think the lame IT folk which is a 3rd part that was hired saw my desktop and saw that I was connecting to the termial server via RDP and freaker out. AS it goes against thier business model for extracting the most amount of $$$ from the compnay
[07:29] <dmsuperman_> dstrbdfrk: I already told you what to read
[07:29] <SebNaitsabes> enzotib: Gnome and KDE are desktop environments yes.  where as XFCE and so on are just window managers.  loads of window managers you can try with Linux
[07:29] <mattzab> I'll be back
[07:29] <dmsuperman_> dstrbdfrk: read it and don't keep throwing a million ? onto the end of your redundant questions
[07:29] <SebNaitsabes> jkewlo: help with what?
[07:29] <mattzab> I have to get on my Ubuntu
[07:29] <mattzab> which is broken at the moment
[07:30] <dmsuperman_> dsmith_: yeah, third party IT sucks
[07:30] <bullgard4> In what file does dist-upgrade log the current state of the dist-upgrade?
[07:30] <dmsuperman_> dsmith_: they can't possibly know how your network works like a normal sysadmin would
[07:30] <dmsuperman_> dsmith_: not to mention they get paid every time they have to do anything, so they try to draw things out as long aspossible
[07:30] <Jkewlo> i updated Ubuntu and i use grub to dual boot. and my windows boot is gone got pasted over with title		Ubuntu 7.10, memtest86+ somehow.. and i need to get into windows i have 2 months of programming i need to get
[07:30] <dsmith_> heh, nah I build the damn thing, they knew what I was using as one mentioned the word "grub"
[07:30] <dsmith_> lol
[07:30] <dmsuperman_> dsmith_: whereas a good sysadmin would be as efficient as possible
[07:30] <dsmith_> aye
[07:30] <enzotib> SebNaitsabes, i have seen kubuntu on another pc, and it comes with a lot of specific utilities (kate, ktorrent, konsole, etc.) different from that used by default in Gnome. Installing kubuntu-desktop get in all such pkgs?
[07:31] <dstrbdfrk> im sorry dmsuperman i dont see where you said
[07:31] <dmsuperman_> dstrbdfrk: http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/GRUB#Error_18
[07:31] <dmsuperman_> dstrbdfrk: take a look at that
[07:31] <dmsuperman_> dstrbdfrk: btw, I googled "grub error 18" and that was the first result
[07:31] <SebNaitsabes> enzotib: yep the default stuff.   if you don't want the whole of KDE you can just have the few apps you want running in Gnome/Ubuntu
[07:31] <dsmith_> and just to thin I was finalljy getting samba, fstabd etc..working nicely
[07:31] <dsmith_> sigh, anyways goodnight
[07:31] <Jkewlo> anything in particular Seb?
[07:31] <dmsuperman_> dsmith_: see ya
[07:32] <SebNaitsabes> jkewlo: what do you want help with?
[07:32] <Jkewlo> i updated Ubuntu and i use grub to dual boot. and my windows boot is gone got pasted over with title  Ubuntu 7.10, memtest86+ somehow.. and i need to get into windows i have 2 months of programming i need to get
[07:32] <SebNaitsabes> gutsy?
[07:32] <enzotib> SebNaitsabes, oh i already have some of that, krusader, kile, kpdf
[07:32] <Jkewlo> i have no idea
[07:32] <Jkewlo> which one this is
[07:32] <SebNaitsabes> 7.10 is gutsy
[07:32] <Jkewlo> yeah
[07:33] <Jkewlo> then its gutsy
[07:33] <Jkewlo> it like took over my pc
[07:33] <Jkewlo> i just need to get into windows
[07:33] <leafw> question: glxinfo lists "Direct rendering: yes" when using Xorg + dwm, but not when using gnome. Any ideas on why gnome can't use direct rendering?
[07:33] <Flannel> Jkewlo: There should be a sample Windows entry in the comments in your menu.lst (/boot/grub/menu.lst)
[07:34] <Flannel> Jkewlo: You just need to change the partitions, and copy it to the end of your menu.lst (and uncomment it, of course)
[07:34] <SebNaitsabes> enzotlib:  yep and Gnome apps can be run in KDE.  meaning KDE users don't have to have the whole of Gnome installed for those apps
[07:34] <Jkewlo> yeah
[07:34] <SebNaitsabes> enzotlib:  you should try kubuntu and kde4  I guess
[07:34] <Jkewlo> so my part is sda2
[07:34] <SebNaitsabes> !windowmanager
[07:35] <Jkewlo> would it be root		(hd1,0)
[07:35] <SebNaitsabes> !enlightment
[07:35] <SebNaitsabes> !fluxbox
[07:35] <evilbug> "top" is showing me that 1gb [out of 2g] ram is being used and system monitor is showing me 250mb, which should i trust? i only have xchat and pidgin running X_X
[07:35] <SebNaitsabes> enzotlib:   Gnome and KDE are desktop enviroments and  XFCE,  Fluxbox so on are just window managers
[07:36] <enzotib> thank you SebNaitsabes, i will try
[07:36] <Jkewlo> title Windows XP root(hd1,0) makeactive chainloader	+1
[07:36] <Jkewlo> does that look right?
[07:36] <dstrbdfrk> what does this mean ??  -bash: /dev/sda: Permission denied
[07:36] <unop> evilbug, trust the output of   free -m  .. i think top corroborates with this.
[07:36] <SebNaitsabes> enzotlib:  when installing kde it will probably ask you which one ot use GDM or KDM   I sugest sticking with GDM thats the log in screen that Ubuntu uses.  KDM is not as nice in my opinion
[07:37] <unop> dstrbdfrk, are you trying to execute /dev/sda ?
[07:37] <unop> dstrbdfrk, what command did you try? and what are you aiming to accomplish?
[07:37] <evilbug> unop- dude... what is using 1gb of my ram??? thanks.
[07:37] <SebNaitsabes> enzotib:  when installing kde it will probably ask you which one ot use GDM or KDM   I sugest sticking with GDM thats the log in screen that Ubuntu uses.  KDM is not as nice in my opinion
[07:37] <dstrbdfrk> idk exactly im trying to follow some instructions to grub-install /dev/sda
[07:38] <Jkewlo> Still lost...
[07:38] <enzotib> SebNaitsabes, i have seen it, and i agree
[07:38] <unop> evilbug, the kernel allocates some amount of memory as a cache for files .. you can find out what amount exactly using the  free  command
[07:38] <Jkewlo> How do i know that hd1 is it??
[07:38] <leafw> what is the name of the application running the restricted drivers dialog?
[07:38] <unop> dstrbdfrk, ok, which command gave you that error message then?
[07:39] <evilbug> unop- it's weird to me since this is the first time it's doing this.
[07:39] <Jkewlo> i got 1 hard drive parted with ubuntu and windows
[07:39] <mrmiggidude> Can someone help me installing 'global-menu-applet' to the dock
[07:40] <evilbug> how can i clear the cache?
[07:41] <Jkewlo> when i right click my partition and goto information i see a warning. Unable to read the contents of the file system! Because of this some operations may be unavailable...
[07:41] <Flannel> Jkewlo: No, sda2 is hd0,1
[07:41] <Gman99999> Does anyone know how AWN works in KDE?  I have some error codes
[07:41] <Jkewlo> kk
[07:41] <Jkewlo> thanks
[07:41] <Jkewlo> <3
[07:41] <unop> evilbug, the cache is controlled automatically, you don't have to worry about adjusting it
[07:42] <unop> !pm | dstrbdfrk
[07:42] <Jkewlo> Flannel - Now this should boot into Windows just fine?? and hopefully i have now lost any of my stuff
[07:43] <Jkewlo> brb
[07:44] <leafw> what is the name of the application running the restricted drivers dialog?
[07:44] <leafw> it does not appear in the menus anymore
[07:45] <dstrbdfrk> can someone tell me how to install grub from the terminal to the mbr i think mine has gotten corrupted im booting of of my backtrack usb and i need some help

[07:56] <djhash> ok.. you need to go through this step by step.. if you have another computer to log into so we can go through it.. than it'll be great..
[07:58] <Irreducibilis> What mode is -J
[07:59] <keppi> anyone here running netatalk?
[08:00] <djhash> if i'm not mistaken.. netatalk is installed with ubuntu.. at least thats what I remember from Fiesty..
[08:00] <djhash> if you dont have Apple computers on ur network.. then you dont need it..
[08:01] <keppi> I have netatalk installed (I think from the repos).  But I can't connect with it.
[08:01] <keppi> I'm trying to set up my ubuntu box as a time machine device
[08:02] <neoline> Hello?
[08:02] <Theaxiom> Hey does anyone here have any experience with running Ubuntu in vmware?
[08:03] <Lunks> Theaxiom: it should just work
[08:04] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[08:04] <djhash> hmm.. keppi.. all i know about apple talk is how to uninstall it from ubuntu
[08:04] <Theaxiom> Lunks, I am having trouble with the network adapater.
[08:04] <keppi> hmmm...  thanks djhash :/
[08:04] <Lunks> Theaxiom: what about it?
[08:05] <keppi> Theaxiom:  what kind of trouble?
[08:05] <Theaxiom> Lunks, it is not working after installing vmware tools, hold on just found a thread, going to try it http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=15237
[08:06] <Lunks> It's supposed to work, dunno
[08:06] <Lunks> I use vbox instead of vmware, Theaxiom
[08:06] <Theaxiom> Lunks, vbox? never heard of it, I will look it up
[08:06] <keppi> I use vbox as well, but I run XP in it.
[08:07] <keppi> vbox = virtualbox
[08:07] <Lunks> Theaxiom: virtualbox, it's a vmware alternative
[08:07] <Theaxiom> Lunks, thanks
[08:07] <Lunks> well, it just works for me... there's a gpl version, but I believe almost everyone uses the free non-gpl one (usb support and such)
[08:07] <mattzab> My sound died
[08:08] <mattzab> I was removing orphaned packages and whatever tool I used just started removing tons of stuff like crazy
[08:08] <Lunks> But as stated on the forum post, we usually do the other way around - windows as a guest.
[08:08] <mattzab> so now I'm missing stuff that came with ubuntu upon install
[08:08] <mattzab> and I need to get all that stuff back
[08:08] <mattzab> how can I do that?
[08:08] <Lunks> mattzab: try reinstalling ubuntu-desktop package
[08:08] <Lunks> or kubuntu
[08:08] <NodeRazor> Hello, does any one know where gcc and g++ stores its headers and libraries ?
[08:08] <mattzab> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop right?
[08:08] <Lunks> whichever you're using right now
[08:08] <Lunks> mattzab: yep
[08:08] <mattzab> or is there a way to uninstall, then reinstall
[08:09] <Lunks> mattzab: you should try installing, if not, reinstall
[08:09] <Lunks> it *may* solve your issue
[08:09] <kevin_> Does anyone know how to disable icons in the GNOME main menu?
[08:10] <mattzab> Lunks, this is what I get
[08:10] <mattzab> http://pastebin.com/m69b8fad
[08:10] <Lunks> mattzab: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop --reinstall
[08:10] <Lunks> I believe it's what you're looking for
[08:11] <mattzab> ah, thank you
[08:11] <NodeRazor> kevin_, System > Preference > Main Menu
[08:11] <Lunks> But if it's statinng you already have the newest version, possibly it won't work. You can always try, though. :)
[08:11] <mattzab> didn't work
[08:12] <mattzab> it asked me if i wanted to use up extra disk space to install it
[08:12] <mattzab> it was one of those y/n questions
[08:12] <kaffien> so kubuntu 8.04 will not boot on the eeepc  701 or the 1000  should i bother trying ubuntu hardy?
[08:12] <mattzab> After this operation, 0B of additional disk space will be used.
[08:12] <Cyber_Stalker> my routing table seems to be incorrect would that cause network problems
[08:12] <djhash> mattzab: that is normal..
[08:12] <kevin_> NodeRazor: I've checked there, I don't see any option to disable icons.
[08:12] <mattzab> What would you suggest?
[08:12] <kcman> is there a software that will let me mount a .cue or .bin file?
[08:12] <mattzab> I'm still stuck
[08:12] <mattzab> no sound! ahhh!
[08:13] <Gheym> ùíù Theaxiom<EMAIL_ADDRESS>has joined #ubuntu
 Hello?
[08:13] <Gheym> [msg(s0ulstice)] what do you mean? like do you want to hear them? or would it be possible to get them on mp3?
[08:13] <Gheym> ùíù passwdtab<EMAIL_ADDRESS>has joined #ubuntu
[08:13] <NodeRazor> kevin_, you need just to disable icons?
[08:13] <mattzab> I can't find whats missing now...
[08:13] <kevin_> NodeRazor: Yes.
[08:13] <NodeRazor> why?
[08:13] <NodeRazor> I don't think there is an option like that in ubuntu.
[08:13] <Gheym> ùíù Theaxiom<EMAIL_ADDRESS>has joined #ubuntu
 Hello?
[08:13] <Gheym> [msg(s0ulstice)] what do you mean? like do you want to hear them? or would it be possible to get them on mp3?
[08:13] <Gheym> ùíù passwdtab<EMAIL_ADDRESS>has joined #ubuntu
[08:14] <Lunks> just a little question, what menu option there is besides preferences on system?
[08:14] <djhash> !flood >Gheym
[08:14] <djhash> !flood | Gheym
[08:14] <NodeRazor> kevin_, what you can due is remove or move the /usr/share/icons folder.
[08:14] <NodeRazor> that might due it.
[08:15] <Lunks> just a little question, what menu option there is besides preferences on system?
[08:15] <mattzab> Lunks, I have Preferences, Administration, and Control Center
[08:15] <Lunks> Hmm duh
[08:15] <Lunks> On 8.10, menu order has changed
[08:15] <mattzab> so what are you saying here?
[08:15] <sheep> Lunks: this channel doesn't support 8.10.  For 8.10, try #ubuntu+1
[08:15] <NodeRazor> ;-) I haven't tried Ubuntu 8.10 yet, will due soon... nice to see whats new.
[08:16] <kevin_> NodeRazor: Doesn't that seem a little extreme?
[08:16] <kcman> is there a software that will let me mount .cue or .bin files
[08:16] <NodeRazor> kevin_, well yeah, but I don't know what else you can due =D
[08:16] <NodeRazor> sorry mate
[08:16] <Lunks> sheep indeed
[08:16] <kevin_> NodeRazor: :(
[08:16] <NodeRazor> kevin_, can you explain why you wan't to remove the icons anyways?
[08:16] <ElectricField> does anyone know what nick Richard stallmen uses on here?
[08:17] <kevin_> NodeRazor: :'C
[08:17] <woozzy> hi all i need to move a file from one location to another via the termnial app. cos i cant do it the normal copy paste way as i dont have permission.
[08:17] <kevin_> NodeRazor: It goes better with the theme I'm trying to use.
[08:17] <alistair> Help: lost network connection - Windows share empty; anyone pse advise?
[08:17] <wols_> woozzy: mv with sudo. or gksudo nautilus
[08:17] <mattzab> so there are no other options? just reinstall ubunto from zero?
[08:17] <wols_> alistair: smbclient -L <windows IP>.  does it show the sharenames?
[08:17] <kevin_> NodeRazor: For something like that, moving my /usr/share/icons folder seems trivial.
[08:18] <NodeRazor> kevin_, ok I found it
[08:18] <NodeRazor> kevin_, go to System > Appearance
[08:18] <kevin_> NodeRazor: K.
[08:18] <NodeRazor> kevin_, they you should have "Apperance Preference" window open.
[08:18] <ElectricField> does Richard Stallman talk on here?
[08:18] <NodeRazor> kevin_, then ander Interface
[08:18] <ElectricField> need to contact him urgently
[08:18] <NodeRazor> kevin_, disable show icons in menus ;-)
[08:18] <djhash> mattzab try "sudo apt-get -f install ubuntu-desktop"
[08:19] <NodeRazor> that should due it.
[08:19] <kevin_> NodeRazor: YES. Alright. Anytime your in St. Louis, I owe you a drink.
[08:19] <NodeRazor> kevin_, is that what you need?
[08:19] <NodeRazor> kevin_, lol thanks.
[08:19] <alistair> wols_, I just did smbclient -L (no ip) and nothing is shown do you want me to paste results?
[08:19] <kevin_> NodeRazor: Much love rasta.
[08:19] <mattzab> djhash, it says that ubuntu-desktop is already the newest version
[08:20] <NodeRazor> kevin_, I did not know about this future my self lol
[08:20] <SitUbuntuSit> kevin, that's an elegant solution... otherwise, just backup then remove the contents of /usr/share/gnome/apps/ I think to accomplish the same thing
[08:20] <NodeRazor> kevin_, just found it =)
[08:20] <ufk> hi
[08:20] <ElectricField> Does Richard Stallman  chat on here?
[08:20] <NodeRazor> kevin_, you mind sending screen shot of your theme ?
[08:20] <kevin_> Sure thing, h/o.
[08:20] <ufk> i have mysql installed on ubntu 8.04 on a lenovo r61 laptop and it takes lots of resources. how can i low the priority of the process? using nice 19 or something ?
[08:20] <alistair> wols_, I see I got to give it a name I will try again sri
[08:20] <djhash> mattzab: then try "sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop" then "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[08:20] <NodeRazor> kevin_, upload the image to tinypic.com please.
[08:21] <Flannel> ufk: renice is how you do it after the fact
[08:21] <ufk> Flannel, ahh... what?
[08:21] <kevin_> NodeRazor: Could a direct link to ImageShack suffice?
[08:21] <NodeRazor> kevin_, yes, that will work too
[08:22] <kcman> is there a software that will let me mount .cue or .bin files
[08:22] <Flannel> ufk: "nice [command]" runs command with associated niceness.  "renice" is used to adjust niceness of already running commands
[08:22] <ufk> oh cool thanks
[08:22] <hateball> kcman: Not that I know, but you can use bchunk to convert to an iso
[08:23] <mattzab> djhash: http://paste.ubuntu.com/38719/
[08:23] <alistair> wols_, sri cant get my head around smbclient
[08:23] <kcman> hateball is that on the res?
[08:23] <wols_> mattzab: check /var/log/dpkg.log
[08:23] <hateball> !info bchunk
[08:23] <wols_> alistair: I gave you the exact command
[08:23] <Flannel> ufk: Also, you could always turn it off when you're not using it.
[08:23] <moDumass> ah awesome, um, i have a portable harddrive mounted on my desktop and i cant unmount it, even removed it and restarted and still it is there
[08:24] <ufk> it's a developer laptop we always use it.
[08:24] <ufk> the renice looks cool i'll try it thanks
[08:24] <mattzab> wols_ this is nasty long, what exactly am I looking for in here?
[08:24] <wols_> moDumass: something has a file open on thatdrive
[08:24] <moDumass> wols_ that drive isnt even connected to my machine
[08:24] <wols_> mattzab: there are timestamps in there that tell you when was what removed
[08:25] <wols_> moDumass: a not connected drive can't be mounted...
[08:25] <wols_> at least not after a restart
[08:25] <alistair> wols_, bash: windows: no such file or directory
[08:25] <NodeRazor> moDumass, did you try > umount -f <hd>
[08:25] <wols_> alistair: I don't know the IP of your windows box
[08:25] <moDumass> NodeRazor, no but i surely will
[08:25] <NodeRazor> moDumass, are you trying to unmount hard drive or remove a file from it?
[08:26] <mattzab> wols_: will it show up in here if it was not removed by synaptic?
[08:26] <moDumass> NodeRazor, im just trying to unmount it
[08:26] <azn_emo_boi101> !twss
[08:26] <moDumass> i might re plug it in, and then unmount it once its been recognised
[08:26] <azn_emo_boi101> !!!
[08:26] <azn_emo_boi101> thats what she said.
[08:26] <NodeRazor> moDumass, yeah, then try running fdisk
[08:26] <NodeRazor> and see which hard drive you need to unmount, unless you already know.
[08:27] <azn_emo_boi101> format c
[08:27] <NodeRazor> moDumass, then run for example umount -f /dev/sdc
[08:27] <alistair> wols_,  smbclient -L <<IP_ADDRESS>>.     does that look like it should be?
[08:27] <Flannel> azn_emo_boi101: Please try and keep on topic in this channel.  We have -offtopic for silly remarks.
[08:28] <moDumass> hmm, and now there are 2 "My Books" on my desktop
[08:28] <azn_emo_boi101> Off topic is quiet.
[08:28] <NodeRazor> moDumass, after you unmount hard drives you can simply delete those shortcuts.
[08:28] <NodeRazor> moDumass, useally they will be in /mount/ or /mnt/
[08:28] <alistair> wols_, if so it comes back with no such file or directory
[08:28] <NodeRazor> so for example you need to unmount sdc
[08:29] <mattzab> wols_ http://paste.ubuntu.com/38720/ is from today right when I ran the remove thing. Can I just apt-get install each thing that it removed and everything should work again?
[08:29] <caco> and mount a woman instead.
[08:29] <caco> bam
[08:29] <NodeRazor> umount -f /dev/sdc then rm -rf /home/<hd_name>
[08:29] <NodeRazor> woops
[08:29] <NodeRazor> */mount/<hd_name>
[08:29] <ElectricField> does MArk Shuttleworth come on here?
[08:30] <alistair> wols_, its very odd because I can flick to Windows on same machine and it works there. It used to work on Linux fine, but has just stopped tonight. Only thing I can relate to is I did a bios upgrade, but then that should surely effect windows too?
[08:30] <Flannel> ElectricField: At times, yes
[08:30] <illmortal1> hey guys, how do i confirm my password with nickserv?
[08:30] <moDumass> rm -rf /home/desktop/My Book
[08:30] <moDumass> ok
[08:30] <moDumass> cool
[08:30] <Flannel> illmortal1: You'll get an email with instructions
[08:30] <moDumass> thanks
[08:30] <NodeRazor> moDumass, yeah that should work too.
[08:30] <illmortal1> my legitimate username is "illmortal" not "illmortal1"
[08:30] <moDumass> NodeRazor, yeh no change
[08:30] <NodeRazor> moDumass, but this removes only for shortcut, if you delete it from /mount/ it will also remove the folder.
[08:31] <moDumass> should i sudo it?
[08:31] <illmortal1> An email? I haven't put an email address anywhere on IRC, Flannel.
[08:31] <NodeRazor> moDumass, yes .
[08:31] <Flannel> illmortal1: When you register, you should have set up an email address to associate with your account.
[08:31] <moDumass> okapi14, cool, gimme a sec
[08:31] <MrObvious> moDumass: Nice nick. I'd change it IMO.
[08:31] <NodeRazor> moDumass, give me exact path to the shortcut.
[08:31] <NodeRazor> lol
[08:31] <MrObvious> It might offend some people.
[08:32] <moDumass> NodeRazor, /media/My Book
[08:32] <illmortal1> this is an old username... normally I type out a command of some sort and type my password to verify me.
[08:32] <moDumass> hmm, it doesnt appear to be a file on my desktop
[08:32] <Flannel> illmortal1: /msg nickserv identify password
[08:33] <illmortal1> thank you Flannel.
[08:34] <NodeRazor> moDumass, ok remove it after umount, sudo rm -rf /media/My\ Book/
[08:34] <NodeRazor> exactly like that
[08:34] <moDumass> MrObvious, thanks, ive had the nick for yours, and i think if it offends really, cmon
[08:35] <moDumass> thanks NodeRazor
[08:35] <NodeRazor> moDumass, np.
[08:35] <moDumass>  yours == years

[08:38] <moDumass> umount: /media/MyBook: not found
[08:39] <webfarmer> yea :)
[08:39] <moDumass> haha, thanks for the help though
[08:39] <NodeRazor> moDumass, lol, you can't umount like that.
[08:39] <moDumass> the hdd isnt connected to my machine so im experimenting
[08:39] <NodeRazor> moDumass, I said first run fdisk and find the hd you want to unmount
[08:39] <paolo_> MrObvious: I tried to rename .gnome2, but it didn't work
[08:39] <webfarmer> MrObvious: Thats exactly what  I mean
[08:39] <pewpew> is there ich7 raid support in the linux kernel?
[08:39] <webfarmer> MrObvious: :)
[08:40] <moDumass> Noderazor if its not linked to my machine, can i even unmount it?
[08:40] <NodeRazor> moDumass, or at least open "System Monitor" > File Systems
[08:40] <moDumass> its a symbolic link i guess
[08:40] <MrObvious> paolo_: I hate to give you advice without you accidently wiping something important out. :\
[08:40] <NodeRazor> moDumass, yes
[08:40] <MrObvious> webfarmer: No clue.
[08:40] <MrObvious> paolo_: Does it say access denied or something?
[08:40] <moDumass> Noderazor its showing it in system monitor
[08:41] <MrObvious> paolo_: You may have to do it from another account.
[08:41] <NodeRazor> moDumass, ok do you know which one it is ?
[08:41] <paolo_> MrObvious: no, but what happens is that it doesn't create thumbnails until I rename the file (e.g. filename.jpg -> filename.jpeg)
[08:41] <paolo_> MrObvious: from another user, everything is fine
[08:41] <NodeRazor> moDumass, you can probably figure it out by size.
[08:42] <NodeRazor> moDumass, you need to find out the device name.
[08:42] <Achoth> Hello. I'm trying to backup my MBR as this guide shows me: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/20/backing-up-the-mbr/   However, how do I know where my MBR is located? I've got 2 SATA drives
[08:42] <MrObvious> paolo_: Sometimes I just like removing ~/.* just to clean things out, but sometimes I get overzealous. I wouldn't recommend it though.
[08:42] <paolo_> MrObvious: it is worse than that. I cannot choose any file.jpg as a desktop background
[08:42] <NodeRazor> moDumass, like /dev/sda1 etc.
[08:42] <paolo_> MrObvious: I guess that is the only thing for me left to do
[08:42] <MrObvious> paolo_: I'm just the type of person that if something like that bugged me I would just start over.
[08:43] <MrObvious> paolo_: I would make a backup just in case you accidently nuke something.
[08:43] <MaximB> does commenting (#) also works at the      /etc/passwd  and   /etc/shadow  files ?
[08:43] <paolo_> MrObvious: ok! ;-) probably mv ~/.* /tmp is a bit safer ! ;-)
[08:43] <paolo_> MrObvious: yes! ;-) ok... I guess I need to do this when I am not running X, right?
[08:43] <MrObvious> paolo_: What is probably the safest route is to make username2 then move everything over then sudo userdel username && rm -rf /home/username/
[08:43] <djhash> Achoth: the MBR is on the drive that you boot from..
[08:44] <MrObvious> paolo_: Just log out of the one username.
[08:44] <paolo_> MrObvious: ok... let me try.
[08:44] <paolo_> MrObvious: thanks for the hint
[08:44] <MrObvious> paolo_: Well have fun.  Both these gives output "file or catalouge does not exist"
[08:45] <king> hello everyone, i just want to ask how can i manage to up my ubuntu server which will be used as file server and the user authenticated is coming from windows 2003 active directory, newbie here
[08:45] <MrObvious> whelp that was interesting
[08:45] <NodeRazor> moDumass, what is the device name of it?
[08:45] <MrObvious> !samba | king
[08:45] <djhash> Achoth: what command are you running?
[08:45] <MaximB> ikonia:  but when editing those files manually - how can I comment in them ?
[08:45] <MrObvious> king: Read up on that and then you should be able to figure things out better.
[08:45] <moDumass> /dev/sdc1 its written on the other side of the hdd image
[08:45] <Achoth> $dd if=/dev/sda of=MBR-backup bs=512 count=1
[08:45] <ikonia> MaximB: you don't edit them menually
[08:46] <ikonia> MaximB: you use the tools
[08:46] <NodeRazor> umount -f /dev/sdc
[08:46] <moDumass> Noderazor /dev/sdc1/ sorry
[08:46] <NodeRazor> moDumass, ??
[08:46] <king> im confused, what samba version should i used, someone told me sambe 3 but i got confused there
[08:46] <djhash> type "ls /dev/sda" and see what it tells you
[08:46] <moDumass> sorry no following /
[08:46] <MaximB> ikonia:  I know there are commands for removing users and groups but it will be much faster to just uncomment it
[08:46] <king> i there any script that will help?
[08:46] <NodeRazor> moDumass, you get it ?
[08:46] <ikonia> MaximB: its the wrong way to do it and can provide issues
[08:46] <ikonia> MaximB: use the tools
[08:47] <moDumass> so unmount -f /dev/sdc1 or jsut sdc?
[08:47] <MrObvious> sdc I think
[08:47] <NodeRazor> moDumass, NO, umount -f not unmount
[08:47] <MrObvious> The nice part is Linux will complain if you get it wrong.
[08:47] <ikonia> MrObvious: sdc is not a partition
[08:47] <MaximB> ikonia:  what toold are you talking about ? cli commands ?
[08:47] <ikonia> MrObvious: sdc1 is
[08:47] <moDumass> okapi14, thanks you guys/people
[08:47] <ikonia> MaximB: as am I
[08:47] <Achoth> djhash: It says "/dev/sda" in a weird color.
[08:47] <MrObvious> See like I said ikonia Linux will complain.
[08:47] <MrObvious> lol
[08:47] <moDumass> Noderazor isnt that wht i said? hmm, confused now
[08:47] <ikonia> MrObvious: you mount a partition, not a disk
[08:48] <NodeRazor> you said unmount

[08:48] <king> ubottu is there any script or guidelines?
[08:48] <NodeRazor> unmount and umount is different LOL

[08:48] <NodeRazor> no "N" in umount
[08:48] <moDumass> NodeRazor, oh, ok, cool, i thought you were refering to the -f
[08:48] <ikonia> king: read the URL ubottu sent you
[08:48] <djhash> Achoth: did u use "sudo dd....."
[08:48] <NodeRazor> moDumass, try umount -f /dev/sdc1 if that wont work.
[08:49] <king> Ok thanks guys i will check this one and i'll be back thank you..
[08:49] <MrObvious> YW
[08:49] <TornadoChas3r> Can Anyone Tell me What b_ i r Mean in a Proftp Logfile?
[08:49] <moDumass> umount2: No such file or directory
[08:49] <Achoth> djhash: I tried, but that just gave me instructions on how to use "sudo" for some reason
[08:49] <moDumass> umount: /dev/sdc: not found
[08:49] <moDumass> will do
[08:49] <moDumass> thanks
[08:49] <ikonia> NodeRazor: you mount a file system (or unmount) not a device
[08:49] <ikonia> NodeRazor: where is /dev/sdc1 mounted
[08:50] <MrObvious> ikonia: Don't confuse him, he is probably tired too. :p
[08:50] <hwilde> you unmount a mountpoint.
[08:50] <ubuntunub> Is anyone here able to assist me with a problem with the wubi installer for ubuntu?
[08:50] <TornadoChas3r> anyone lol
[08:50] <ikonia> MrObvious: I'm not confusing him -  I'm giving him fact
[08:50] <NodeRazor> you need to use sudo for mount and umount
[08:50] <Bracki> How can I access /blah/.config folders in the file browser/nautilus?
[08:50] <NodeRazor> ikonia, what?
[08:50] <MrObvious> ikonia: You are confusing me in the process.
[08:50] <djhash> Achoth: you need to type it all in one line.. "sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=mbr_backup bs=512 count=1"  Also.. replace the - with _
[08:50] <hwilde> Bracki, you need to show hidden files
[08:50] <moDumass> i think its fixed
[08:50] <Flannel> Bracki: ctrl-H will show hidden folders
[08:50] <moDumass> awesome
[08:50] <moDumass> thanks
[08:50] <MrObvious> ubuntunub: Just state your problem and someone will help if they know how.
[08:50] <NodeRazor> moDumass, good, no problem.

[08:54] <ubuntunub> Actually it cuts out.
[08:55] <djamel> ubuntunub, i had a lot of problems with the installers lately, i don't know what's going on, i had to perform a netinstall for it to work
[08:55] <Twois10> anyway to tell Amarok to start playing at time = hh:mm:ss ?
[08:56] <ubuntunub> Well I can't get it to install =\ and I don't know how to burn a ISO.. lol
[08:56] <ubuntunub> I don't have the programs for it.
[08:56] <NodeRazor> yeah, netinstall is the way to go ;-)
[08:56] <nikre> thx for help, synaptic game me the tip as if it knows what i search for(packages->force version)
[08:56] <nikre> *gave
[08:56] <hwilde> TornadoChas3r, that line doesn't mean anything really...  it's just shorthand for the terms of the download.  b is binary format,  i i forget,  r is read i think,  why what is the problem you are trying to solve
[08:56] <NodeRazor> Just installed CentOS 5.2 with netinstall today.

[08:59] <hwilde> ubuntunub, i'm not sure you have a firm grasp on what you're trying to accomplish here
[08:59] <NodeRazor> bazhang, with what?
[08:59] <NodeRazor> I don't have any issue lol
[08:59] <ubuntunub> I'm absolutely positive.
[08:59] <hwilde> ubuntunub, you should download the install cd image, burn it to a cd, then boot from that cd and install
[09:00] <ubuntunub> I did, Do I just drag and drop the files and boot from CD?
[09:00] <hwilde> ubuntunub, if you can't figure out how to burn the iso,  follow this link here:

[09:03] <djhash> Dr-Manmohan^Sing: what bazhang said...
[09:03] <ikonia> skoenman: you don't need to compailed it
[09:03] <ikonia> skoenman: if you open your package manager and search for clam you'll find it in there, pre-compiled ready for use
[09:04] <NodeRazor> ok gota go
[09:04] <hwilde> alma, also try system->admin->hardware testing
[09:04] <skoenman> no but i need to compile it so that safe squid will work with it
[09:04]  * NodeRazor closes the doors....
[09:04] <hwilde> alma, it should run a mic test for you
[09:04] <ikonia> skoenman: I assure you, you don't need to compile it
[09:05] <alma> hwilde, I have xubuntu where to find hardware testing because I can not find it
[09:05] <hwilde> alma, i dunno, what i'm saying is try to find another program to verify the mic works
[09:05] <alma> hwilde, okay
[09:05] <alma> hwilde, what progra
[09:05] <alma> m
[09:05] <alma> ?
[09:05] <skoenman> ikonia have you setup a clamav server with safesquid???
[09:06] <alma> hwilde, I will download a sound recorder
[09:06] <ikonia> not directly with safe squid no
[09:06] <hwilde> !skype

[09:07] <hwilde> alma, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=477724   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=477724
[09:07] <skoenman> ikonia what compiler do you think i should load???i have loaded gcc
[09:07] <ikonia> skoenman: well, the documents I've just read on it, say nothing about needing to compile it
[09:08] <ikonia> skoenman: safe-squid just needs to access the pre-compiled clam daemon - you do not need to compile it
[09:08] <skoenman> hmmm k but the clam verion doesnt seem to want to work with it
[09:09] <ikonia> skoenman: what makes you say that ?
[09:09] <skoenman> thats why im taking the clamav from there website ....
[09:09] <ikonia> skoenman: I suspect its something stupid like the safe-squid user hasn't got the correct permissions to the clam socket file
[09:09] <skoenman> sorry the version doesnt seem to want to work with it
[09:09] <ikonia> skoenman: why do you think it's the version ?
[09:09] <skoenman> hmm can also be
[09:10] <hwilde> skoenman, why can't you just use the one in synaptic ?
[09:10] <ikonia> skoenman: I've just read 3 documents (skimmed I'll grant you) and none of them require you to compile clam to work
[09:10] <ikonia> hwilde: and that is the question...
[09:10] <skoenman> hmm well im using ubuntu server
[09:11] <ikonia> skoenman: so ?
[09:11] <hwilde> skoenman, why can't you just use the one in synaptic ?
[09:11] <skoenman> im gonna try and load the precompiled one and just give the user rights
[09:11] <ikonia> skoenman: don't just blindly do things
[09:11] <ikonia> skoenman: investigate
[09:11] <alma> hwilde: it is working thanks for help with the guides
[09:11] <skoenman> well lets put it this way
[09:11] <ikonia> skoenman: what is the error your getting ? why do you think it's a version issue (whats your clue)
[09:11] <hwilde> alma, mmhmm
[09:12] <skoenman> clam av worked and i could update and scan....
[09:12] <skoenman> safesquid also worked but it didnt scan the files that went through it ....
[09:12] <ikonia> skoenman: I'm still waiting for some sort of debug info or something that gives you a clue that it's a clam av version issue
[09:12] <skoenman> how i know this is that you go to this one site and download n virus and its suppost to stop it
[09:13] <ikonia> skoenman: no - that means safe-squid and clamav are not talking to either other....thats all
[09:13] <skoenman> yeah so how do i fix it.
[09:13] <ikonia> skoenman: well, as I said look into it, check the log files, check why they can't talk, then fix it
[09:13] <ikonia> skoenman: rather than blindly assuming things and doing things
[09:14] <geev> heeelp, i restarted my computer then i opened firefox but i dont find my bookmark folders on this firefox where can i find them

[09:20] <azn_emo_boi101> How can I find how it's broken?

[09:21] <azn_emo_boi101> I think
[09:21] <azn_emo_boi101> hold on
[09:21] <azn_emo_boi101> Brb
[09:21] <azn_emo_boi101> Okay
[09:21] <wols_> azn_emo_boi101: you must fix your apt
[09:21] <azn_emo_boi101> I'm getting package information, I hit install updates
[09:21] <Crshman> how can i check what is using a filesystem i wish to unmount?
[09:21] <azn_emo_boi101> How?
[09:21] <hwilde> azn_emo_boi101, sudo apt-get install -f
[09:22] <wols_> azn_emo_boi101: use apt-get as I told you
[09:22] <azn_emo_boi101> Okay
[09:22] <geev> wols_, where is the folder do you know the path?
[09:22] <wols_> hwilde: ignoring broken packages is a bad idea. sooner or later you have to fix it
[09:22] <geev> wols_, so from there is there any means to make them visible again on firefox browser
[09:22] <wols_> geev: ~/.mozilla
[09:22] <hwilde> azn_emo_boi101, then run   sudo dpkg --configure -a
[09:22] <kibibyte> how to change keybord shoutcut to change worskpaces in xubuntu help pls
[09:22] <hwilde> wols_, understood, and in this case I am recommending latter
[09:22] <hwilde> !keytouch | kibibyte
[09:22] <wols_> geev: check on disk if the bookmarks even exist
[09:22] <wols_> geev: sometimes they get deleted :( (mainly on windows so far but who knows)
[09:22] <moDumass> hmm, 403 forbidden
[09:23] <moDumass> wt
[09:23] <moDumass> h
[09:23] <wols_> hwilde: never latter. next time apt needs to run you must fix it anyways
[09:23] <azn_emo_boi101> It wants to remove ubuntu-desktop
[09:23] <azn_emo_boi101> D:
[09:23] <wols_> and at that time you don't want to but want to install/remove something instead
[09:23] <hwilde> lol
[09:23] <wols_> azn_emo_boi101: install the packages that errored as I told you
[09:24] <Lunks> Can I set default arguments for a program? let's say, ssh... I want it to always use -C
[09:24] <azn_emo_boi101> wols can you repeat what you told me?
[09:24] <hwilde> Lunks, /etc/ssh/ssh_config
[09:24] <azn_emo_boi101> Closed the window and it's not there
[09:24] <hwilde> wols_ its gonna remove his desktop man
[09:24] <azn_emo_boi101> halp
[09:24] <azn_emo_boi101> What happened/
[09:24] <bazhang> no it wont
[09:24] <azn_emo_boi101> ?
[09:25] <bazhang> azn_emo_boi101, stop with the enter key
[09:25] <wols_> hwilde: what YOU told him removes  his ubuntu meta package. installing a package certainly never removes that
[09:25] <geev> wols_ do you know command that will help me to find the mozilla directory that i can run on terminal?
[09:25] <wols_> geev: find . -name bookmark*
[09:25] <azn_emo_boi101> Sorry
[09:25] <azn_emo_boi101> Wols, can you repeat what to do?
[09:26] <Lunks> hwilde: thanks!
[09:26] <Crshman> INTERESTING
[09:26] <Crshman> oops
[09:26] <Crshman> wrong window =X
[09:26] <FloodBot1> Crshman: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:26] <wols_> 10:21 < wols_> azn_emo_boi101: try to install them via apt-get and show us the output if it errors
[09:26] <azn_emo_boi101> install what?
[09:26] <azn_emo_boi101> The broken files?
[09:27] <wols_> yes
[09:27] <bazhang> azn_emo_boi101, what is the problem
[09:27] <azn_emo_boi101> wols I'm pastebinning the output

[09:31] <wols_> azn_emo_boi101: what ubuntu version is this?
[09:31] <azn_emo_boi101> 8.04
[09:31] <wols_> packages.ubuntu.com disagrees with you http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libgtk2.0-0&searchon=names&suite=hardy&section=all
[09:31] <bazhang> azn_emo_boi101, is this linux mint?
[09:31] <azn_emo_boi101> Sorry, flaky internet, disconnected
[09:32] <hwilde> so your internet and firefox and java are also broken?
[09:32] <wols_> azn_emo_boi101: apt-cache policy libgtk2.0-0  pastebin that
[09:32] <hwilde> what'd you do to your poor system
[09:32] <azn_emo_boi101> i have no idea
[09:32] <bazhang> also, azn_emo_boi101 did you use any 3rd party scripts on that?
[09:32] <azn_emo_boi101> On what?
[09:32] <Myrtti> azn_emo_boi101: "lsb_release -a" on terminal
[09:33] <azn_emo_boi101> wols: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/38728/
[09:33] <wols_> bazhang: it sounds like intrepid...

[09:34] <azn_emo_boi101> i did, wols
[09:34] <wols_> azn_emo_boi101:no
[09:34] <wols_> apt-cache is NOT apt-get
[09:34] <wols_> Myrtti: he might have one or several intrepid packages
[09:34] <Myrtti> wols_: true
[09:35] <azn_emo_boi101> Sorry old stuff on the clipboard

[09:35] <djc> I'm getting an input/output error half way through the installer
[09:35] <djc> but I've gotten it with two different CD's now
[09:35] <StillTime> Hi all. Anybody familiar with FreeNX here?
[09:35] <djc> what would be a good way to test the HD?
[09:35] <Flannel> djc: Have you checked those CDs for defects?
[09:36] <hwilde> wols, Myrtti, why is it looking for dependency 2.12.9-4ubuntu3  instead of 3ubuntu4 ?
[09:37] <azn_emo_boi101> Help me...
[09:37] <bazhang> azn_emo_boi101, did you any other repos to that?
[09:37] <azn_emo_boi101> bazhang?
[09:37] <azn_emo_boi101> eh?
[09:38] <bazhang> azn_emo_boi101, please pastebin sources.list
[09:38] <hwilde> azn_emo_boi101, can you pastebin   "dpkg -l | grep gtk2"
[09:38] <azn_emo_boi101> bazhang where is that?
[09:38] <hwilde> /etc/apt
[09:38] <eth01> why is your nick azn_emo_boi101?
[09:38] <bazhang> in /etc/apt/
[09:38] <azn_emo_boi101> joke
[09:38] <eth01> is that short for "asian emo boy"
[09:38] <eth01> :/
[09:38] <wols_> hwilde: makes no sense. puc says it there is ubuntu2 in ubuntu only
[09:39] <wols_> hwilde: we already know what is installed
[09:40] <azn_emo_boi101> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/38733/ thats for you hwilde
[09:40] <hwilde> azn_emo_boi101, thats an old link tho
[09:40] <hwilde> copy again
[09:40] <azn_emo_boi101> oh
[09:40] <hwilde> sometimes ctrl c doesnt go between aps
[09:41] <azn_emo_boi101> software sources I can't find it
[09:41] <azn_emo_boi101> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/38734/ hwilde there
[09:41] <bazhang> azn_emo_boi101, cat /etc/apt/sources.list and paste to paste.ubuntu.com
[09:41] <hwilde> azn_emo_boi101, your versions should look like this here   http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/38735/
[09:42] <azn_emo_boi101> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/38736/ there
[09:42]  * hwilde would suggest apt-get install pastebinit but...
[09:43] <hwilde> why does that say gutsy
[09:43] <opr_> hi
[09:43] <azn_emo_boi101> I upgraded from gutsy
[09:43] <opr_> is there a way to edit my scheduled events
[09:43] <opr_> but by gui?
[09:43] <opr_> rather than crontab -e
[09:44] <skoenman> ikonia i dont know what i did now but it works with precompiled files and the same squid....
[09:44] <hwilde> opr_, gcrontab
[09:44] <bazhang> there are feisty in there as well
[09:44] <BezNalogov> I have installed on hardy my epson al-c1100 according to the instruction of http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Epson-AcuLaser_C1100. But when I try to print I will get an error in cups that says /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failed. I am unable to solve this problem, anyone an idea?
[09:44] <opr_> hwilde, thanks
[09:44] <cojones_> is it possible to optimize ubuntu for an i686 machine and not use the generic kernel?
[09:45] <azn_emo_boi101> So, what should I do guys?
[09:45] <opr_> yes you must compile your own one
[09:45] <azn_emo_boi101> what happens if I remove ubuntu-desktop?
[09:45] <hwilde> azn_emo_boi101, you dont want to do that
[09:45] <azn_emo_boi101> Never mind.
[09:45] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, nothing happens .. it's just a meta-paclage
[09:45] <azn_emo_boi101> Yeah
[09:45] <azn_emo_boi101> I guess I could use xfce
[09:45] <unop> meta-package*
[09:45] <cojones_> i tried running a rt kernel once and that ruined everything
[09:45] <cojones_> (ruined updates that is)
[09:45] <hwilde> cojones_, why dont you like the generic kernel
[09:46] <azn_emo_boi101> But I like gnome.
[09:46] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, you still trying to fix the broken package states?
[09:46] <azn_emo_boi101> yeah
[09:46] <wols_> unop: the meta packages is no biggie, missing pixbuf-engines however is
[09:46] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, try this.   sudo aptitude install -f
[09:46] <bazhang> unop, he has mixed gutsy feisty sources for a hardy install
[09:46] <wols_> azn_emo_boi101: if you can, try another mirror, update and dist-upgrade
[09:46] <azn_emo_boi101> How?
[09:47] <azn_emo_boi101> and dist-upgrade to WHAT?
[09:47] <azn_emo_boi101> I'm on hardy
[09:47] <hwilde> not quite
[09:47] <wols_> bazhang: it still should upgrade to hardy only
[09:47] <Theaxiom> I installed the vmware tools after installing ubuntu in vmware, and when I rebuilt the vmxnet module and restarted networking, my nic could no longer receive an ip address. How do I switch back to my old vmxnet module?
[09:47] <wols_> cause the packages are newer
[09:47] <azn_emo_boi101> How do I mirror?
[09:47] <unop> bazhang, well, i'm surprised that has an impact .. it shouldn't do
[09:47] <bazhang> also comment out the feisty repos and 3rd party ones azn_emo_boi101
[09:47] <azn_emo_boi101> How?
[09:47] <azn_emo_boi101> That apittude install -f gave me some imput
[09:47] <cojones_> hwilde: i'm seeking performance increases
[09:47] <wols_> azn_emo_boi101: show us your /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:47] <nagyv> hello! I have a problem with my USB (I presume). Before whenever I connected my phone it was recognised, mounted, etc. Not it isn't, but the connection is fine as the phone start to charge its batteries. I've tried lsusb, but it didn't show anything that I would recognise as my phone. Any ideas?
[09:48] <hwilde> but if he has a feisty and gutsy mix, why is it pulling packages newer than mine in hardy ?
[09:48] <azn_emo_boi101> wols I already did
[09:48] <azn_emo_boi101> Hold on
[09:48] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, can you put that on a pastebin?
[09:48] <Theaxiom> yay, it magically works now?
[09:48] <bazhang> hwilde, hardy proposed is in there
[09:48] <wols_> hwilde: exactly. packages from intrepid even. and apt-cache policy shows the package came from hardy/updates
[09:49] <hwilde> azn_emo_boi101, how attached are you to your system?
[09:49] <pheera> ?????????
[09:49] <hwilde> !kernel | cojones_
[09:49] <azn_emo_boi101> Quite
[09:49] <azn_emo_boi101> I'm pastebinning
[09:49] <hwilde> azn_emo_boi101, bc it only takes like 20minutes to reinstall from cd
[09:49] <azn_emo_boi101> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/38739/ That's what I get now
[09:49] <azn_emo_boi101> I can't make big download, hwilde
[09:49] <azn_emo_boi101> I'm on HughesNet Satellite internet
[09:49] <hwilde> azn_emo_boi101, that should be fixed now then
[09:49] <opr_> hwilde, where do i need to save it?
[09:50] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, if i were you, i'd let aptitude fix this situation .. by answering yes to it's suggestions
[09:50] <wols_> azn_emo_boi101: once upon a time you had intrepid  or such in your sources.list
[09:50] <Theaxiom> damn why does ubuntu take so much hard drive space?
[09:50] <azn_emo_boi101> wtf?
[09:50] <hwilde> opr_, huh?
[09:50] <azn_emo_boi101> So, to what I just pastebinned, yes?
[09:50] <hwilde> Theaxiom, how much
[09:50] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, yes
[09:50] <opr_> hwilde, for my gcrontab, where does it need to be saved?
[09:50] <azn_emo_boi101> What happens if I get rid of gtk2.0-examples
[09:50] <azn_emo_boi101> wols, you agree?
[09:50] <hwilde> opr_, the default  whatever it prompts
[09:50] <opr_> /home/myusername
[09:50] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, i shouldn't imagine much happens
[09:51] <Theaxiom> hwilde, Total filesystem usage: 4.6 gigabytes, fresh install.
[09:51] <unop> !info gtk2.0-examples
[09:51] <azn_emo_boi101> okay let me try
[09:51] <hwilde> azn_emo_boi101, that's just going to remove the new version you somehow installed,  then you should be able to instal lthe correct one
[09:51] <azn_emo_boi101> Okay
[09:51] <hwilde> Theaxiom, and everything works on your system right, video, sound, etc ?
[09:51] <Theaxiom> hwilde, Yeah got it all working.
[09:51] <hwilde> Theaxiom, and how do you think ubuntu works for everybody?
[09:52] <hwilde> Theaxiom, if you want to free up diskspace go into synaptic and remove everything you dont need
[09:52] <Theaxiom> hwilde, I am used to Gentoo, it is really small, heh. You download wht you need.
[09:52] <azn_emo_boi101> Okay, it's working
[09:52] <zamanfou> could someone tell me where is the clipboard data stored?
[09:52] <Theaxiom> hwilde, Thanks.
[09:52] <unop> Theaxiom, 4.6Gb is quite good when compared to how other OSes do
[09:52] <bazhang> Theaxiom, then try the minimal installer
[09:53] <unop> zamanfou, in memory
[09:53] <hwilde> Theaxiom, and it doesn't work for everyone, and if you want sound you have to recompile sound.  and if you change video cards you have to recompile your kernel, etc etc
[09:53] <bazhang> !minimal
[09:53] <azn_emo_boi101> Vista needs 6 gigs for Ultimate install
[09:53] <zamanfou> unop, how can I access it?
[09:53] <Theaxiom> unop, bazhang hwilde I can see now that ubuntu has everything I will ever need, yes it is good as a fresh OS install. No need to add anything. :)
[09:53] <hwilde> Theaxiom, I have ubuntu down to 645megabytes on a compact flashcard.  it's pretty easy to remove stuff
[09:53] <azn_emo_boi101> haha!
[09:53] <azn_emo_boi101> It worked!
[09:53] <azn_emo_boi101> I think it's fixed
[09:53] <unop> zamanfou, depends, command line? C program? what?
[09:53] <azn_emo_boi101> Thank you guys SO  much!
[09:54] <hwilde> azn_emo_boi101, you can sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade now without errors?
[09:54] <webfarmer> I'm trying to get a simple text to speech engine with a gui - I've tried verbose, lsr... I just can't seem to get any of these programs to work - can anyone assist?
[09:54] <azn_emo_boi101> I can run update manager
[09:54] <hwilde> webfarmer, festival is really easy.
[09:54] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, to keep the system stable now .. you should remove the old feisty and gutsy sources
[09:54] <zamanfou> unop, both
[09:54] <opr_> webfarmer, i tried with festival, no luck though, sorry
[09:54] <azn_emo_boi101> How?
[09:54] <unop> zamanfou, see xclip
[09:54] <hwilde> webfarmer, echo "blah blah" | festival --tts
[09:54] <unop> !info xclip > zamanfou
[09:54] <webfarmer> hwilde how do you use it
[09:55] <webfarmer> ttr filename?
[09:55] <webfarmer> tts
[09:55] <webfarmer> sorry
[09:55] <pheera> ?????????????????
[09:55] <hwilde> webfarmer, sudo apt-get install festival
[09:55] <zyclop> how do i tell alsa, wich soundcard to use?
[09:55] <webfarmer> done that
[09:55] <azn_emo_boi101> just remove anything that says gutsy or fiesty from software sources/
[09:55] <zamanfou> unop, thank you
[09:55] <unop> webfarmer, festival -tts < filename
[09:55] <pheera> ??????????????????
[09:55] <opr_> im going, yhanks for help
[09:55] <opr_> *thanks
[09:55] <bazhang> pheera, please stop
[09:55] <webfarmer> seriously - if I have a pdf document? or a webpage
[09:56] <azn_emo_boi101> Guys?
[09:56] <webfarmer> do I have to copy that entire thing to a text file?
[09:56] <unop> webfarmer, you'll need to convert those to text files.. using an automated tool perhaps
[09:56] <Theaxiom> If I have ubuntu installed in a vm, inside my vista, and I use RDP to connect, will it get stuck in an infinite loop? lol
[09:57] <webfarmer> isn't there a gui or something
[09:58] <azn_emo_boi101> Okay, sorry guys
[09:58] <zamanfou> unop, is there any syscall which will give me the info I need?
[09:58] <unop> webfarmer, i'm not aware of any GUI apps .. except maybe openoffice
[09:58] <azn_emo_boi101> How do I remove gutsy repos and make sure I have Hardy?
[09:58] <hwilde> webfarmer, there is a pidgin plugin that will speak your chats
[09:58] <azn_emo_boi101> You all saw my sources.list
[09:58] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, comment out the lines that say gutsy, etc in /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:58] <djc> Flannel: I didn't check the disks, but the one I used now was brand new, and those CDs have been working fine for
[09:59] <azn_emo_boi101> I don't see many that say hardy
[09:59] <djc> me
[09:59] <hwilde> what happens if he just deletes sources.list ?  won't synaptic fix it
[09:59] <Theaxiom> That is awesome ubuntu has terminal services.
[09:59] <inertial> aynone know where my virtual desktop size might be stored? i can't find it in Xorg.conf
[09:59] <azn_emo_boi101> or any in software sources gui
[09:59] <djc> not sure how I'd easily verify the contents right now
[09:59] <wols_> Theaxiom: how can you use rdp to connect to ubuntu?
[09:59] <webfarmer> hwilde... I need a speech engine for webpages - that's all - why is this so difficult?
[09:59] <unop> hwilde, not a wise thing to do
[09:59] <Theaxiom> wols_ I meant to connect to vista
[09:59] <azn_emo_boi101> How do I edit sources.list?
[09:59] <hwilde> synaptic won't autogen one ?
[09:59] <Theaxiom> wols_, I just tried it, got booted to vista login screen, hehe
[09:59] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, using your editor.  gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:00] <unop> hwilde, it might do, tho i can't verify as i don't use gnome.
[10:00] <azn_emo_boi101> So any line with gutsy in it I add pound at the beginning?
[10:00] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, right
[10:00] <wols_> zamanfou: kernel has no clipboard hence no syscall for it
[10:00] <enquest> is there something to install all the base things to run a server?
[10:00] <hwilde> webfarmer, did you google this at all?  http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-363915.html  How-To Install Click, Speak, a Web-page Reader (Text-to-Speech) Firefox Extension
[10:00] <wols_> enquest: install ubuntu server
[10:00] <enquest> I got this ubuntu box and even the "man" command is not installed
[10:01] <azn_emo_boi101> All my gutsy repos are already commented out

[10:01] <wols_> hwilde: TTS software is not what he wants
[10:01] <azn_emo_boi101> Oh but they're unchecked
[10:01] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, ok, you might need to do this first.  sudo aptitude update
[10:01] <hwilde> wols_, he wants a program to speak his website ?
[10:01] <zamanfou> wols_, I see. Do you know how can I see what clipboard contains?
[10:01] <azn_emo_boi101> I've done that btu I'll rn it again
[10:01] <hwilde> unop, can't he just copy somebody else's sources.lst ?
[10:02] <qqopp> asdasfsd
[10:02] <azn_emo_boi101> Lol banhammer.
[10:02] <unop> hwilde, he could .. but why tho? he already has his own
[10:02] <hwilde> his seems borked
[10:02] <inertial> if i have a window manager that's not starting propperly, where should I look... X seems to load fine but the WM hangs
[10:02] <azn_emo_boi101> How can I speed up my Hardy?
[10:02] <azn_emo_boi101> Runs slower than XP
[10:02] <wols_> hwilde: he stated his problem wrongly
[10:03] <wols_> azn_emo_boi101: how much RAM do you have?
[10:03] <hwilde> wols_, he wants to embed a tts object into his webpage for users to see ?
[10:03] <azn_emo_boi101> 512 mb
[10:03] <wols_> webfarmer: festival
[10:03] <hwilde> wols_, I already told him festival
[10:03] <hwilde> :p
[10:04] <azn_emo_boi101> Okay, I ran aptitude update
[10:04] <azn_emo_boi101> Can i Update packages now?
[10:04] <hwilde> azn_emo_boi101, what part of your system specifically is slower
[10:04] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, yes
[10:04] <wols_> azn_emo_boi101: dist-upgrade?
[10:04] <azn_emo_boi101> opening windows
[10:05] <hwilde> turn off all the fancy effects
[10:05] <unop> wols_, iirc, he's already on hardy
[10:05] <azn_emo_boi101> But I love my effects D:
[10:05] <wols_> unop: but he had packages from feisty and guts in his output, as bazhang said
[10:05] <hwilde> run the upgrades!
[10:05] <bazhang> azn_emo_boi101, then get a better video card and more ram.
[10:06] <azn_emo_boi101> I'm on a laptop
[10:06] <azn_emo_boi101> I can hardly upgrade the card
[10:06] <hwilde> there is no way vista runs faster on that laptop with only 512mb of ram.
[10:06] <azn_emo_boi101> XP
[10:06] <azn_emo_boi101> not vista
[10:06] <azn_emo_boi101> Can I cancel updating?
[10:06] <bazhang> turn off compiz and get rid of awn then
[10:07] <bazhang> also remove ppa repos and all 3rd party repos
[10:07] <wols_> and pray you don't use a SIS videocard
[10:07] <bazhang> azn_emo_boi101, and back up your files NOW.
[10:07] <hwilde> lol
[10:07] <unop> wols_, i think bazhang said he had feisty and gutsy sources .. not necessarily packages .. and his grep of dpkg -l for gtk packages showed he had newer packages than hwilde did.
[10:07] <hwilde> yeah he had three newer packages, but older repos
[10:08] <hwilde> go figure
[10:08] <bazhang> unop, he has hardy proposed sources as well
[10:08]  * hwilde thinks he tasted the intrepid and didn't like it
[10:08] <unop> hwilde, how do you come to that conclusion? :)
[10:08] <hwilde> how did he get 4ubuntu3
[10:09] <hwilde> that is beyond hardy
[10:09] <azn_emo_boi101> Guys, can I cancel updating?
[10:09] <unop> hwilde, hardy proposed
[10:09] <bazhang> hardy proposed make it into intrepid?
[10:09] <Abracadabra> Hello :)
[10:09] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, why do you want to do that?
[10:09] <Abracadabra> How do you copy/paste on Ubuntu server CLI ?
[10:09] <zyclop> I have sound with the system sounds and Amarok, but nothing else. Is this a known problem?
[10:09] <azn_emo_boi101> unop: I haave a limited amount of download space a day, if I can't finish
[10:09] <bazhang> Abracadabra, install pastebinit
[10:09] <erno> does anyone know how to configure the slapd password for ldap?
[10:10] <Slart> Abracadabra: ctrl+shift+c, ctrl+shift+v
[10:10] <azn_emo_boi101> Nvm, tt's run
[10:10] <azn_emo_boi101> it'll run
[10:10] <hwilde> erno,   sounds too obvious but /etc/openldap/slapd.con ?
[10:10] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, you can .. but you might break the packages again
[10:10] <BezNalogov> zyclop: Can you give an example of a prog that doesnt give sound?
[10:10] <Slart> Abracadabra: oh.. or wait.. not on the tty
[10:10] <azn_emo_boi101> D:
[10:10] <Slart> Abracadabra: that's in a terminal
[10:10] <azn_emo_boi101> Is the netbook remix any good?
[10:11] <soundray> !info gpm | Abracadabra
[10:11] <Abracadabra> slart, and how to select text (sorry for the n00b question)....gotta start somewhere :)
[10:11] <hwilde> zyclop, on my computer only the first app I open gets access to the soundcard.  have to close it before another app can access
[10:11] <bazhang> azn_emo_boi101, chat in offtopic channel
[10:11] <azn_emo_boi101> Sorry
[10:11] <zyclop> BezNalogov, Firefox and Totem
[10:11] <unop> Abracadabra, how do you access the server maching?  console or ssh?
[10:11] <Slart> Abracadabra: I don't know.. I've never had to copy paste on a raw tty in text mode.. but try gpm
[10:11] <unop> Abracadabra, s/maching/machine/
[10:12] <Slart> Abracadabra: and there's no need to be sorry.. we've all been there at some time
[10:12] <Abracadabra> unop, console....not through PuTTy
[10:12] <hwilde> Abracadabra, what exactly do you want to do?
[10:12] <unop> Abracadabra, try gpm then.
[10:13] <hwilde> Abracadabra, why not just    echo "text you want to copy here"  >> fileyouwanttopastehere
[10:13] <hwilde> then deal with cut n paste in the editor
[10:13] <unop> hwilde, temporary files can be a hassle .. and it's easier to just use a mouse if you have one
[10:14] <Abracadabra> hwilde, I have installed Ubuntu server under VMWare, and am testing a Network monitoring tool. I need to select and copy/paste some of the config files
[10:15] <Abracadabra> Is there any SHIFT+right arrow to highlight and a key combination to copy/paste ? :/
[10:15] <soundray> Abracadabra: no
[10:15] <Abracadabra> *Isn't there
[10:15] <gchaos> is there some software for making electronic music in Ubuntu?
[10:15] <soundray> Abracadabra: you can use the mouse to copy/paste if you install gpm, or you can run GNU screen, which lets you copy from the buffer and paste elsewhere
[10:15] <soundray> !screen | Abracadabra
[10:16] <gchaos> is there some software for making electronic music in Ubuntu?
[10:16] <bazhang> !studio
[10:16] <bazhang> gchaos, ^^

[10:17] <gchaos> thx a lot!!!!
[10:17] <Abracadabra> sudo apt-get gpm install gives an error ....

[10:22] <DNAngel> i'm not sure. the screen with some message is so fast dissapear. I can't read what the message
[10:22] <soundray> Rafik: do you have a second computer? Things might be easier if you could login from a machine with working X
[10:23] <soundray> DNAngel: have you tried the boot option for checking the CD integrity? It's worth doing
[10:24] <DNAngel> i checked all option to boot to try solve it, but always goes to BusyBox
[10:24] <Rafik> soundray, I do have another laptop (used to conect here). how can I do ?

[10:28] <hwilde> gotta have a working system
[10:28] <Theaxiom> hwilde, Don't get me wrong, I love Vista. But linux is just sooooo fast.
[10:28] <hwilde> I like anything that works
[10:29] <hwilde> 'nuff said
[10:29] <DNAngel> Vista have so much bug ya know
[10:29] <inertial> i used the encrypted root fs option one the ubuntu alternate install, is there any way to resize that partition to make room for another or am i fucked?

[10:33] <rtp34783> azn_emo_boi101: irssi is a good terminal based irc client
[10:34] <DNAngel> Rafik : ur name seem familiar in Indonesia xD
[10:34] <DNAngel> kk,
[10:34] <Expl0ited> azn_emo_boi101: Id rather not though.
[10:34] <Expl0ited> rxvt is a better teminal emulator.
[10:34] <azn_emo_boi101> ?
[10:34] <Theaxiom> Is there any way to right click on a folder, and "Open Terminal Here"?
[10:35] <Expl0ited> I don't want opinions thanks, just how to change RXVT's options thanks
[10:35] <azn_emo_boi101> ?
[10:35] <azn_emo_boi101> I never even said anything to you...
[10:35] <soundray> azn_emo_boi101: to open a terminal: Applications-Accessories-Terminal
[10:35] <DistroJockey> Theaxiom, yep:  sudo apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal
[10:35] <azn_emo_boi101> Obviously
[10:35] <azn_emo_boi101> lawl
[10:35] <Theaxiom> DistroJockey, thanks
[10:36] <soundray> azn_emo_boi101: ask a clearer question if that's not what you meant
[10:36] <DNAngel> Is ubuntu will fixed on 4530 later, I hope. Coz I need do programming on Ubuntu. My old PC is fine with Ubuntu, but I need to run Ubuntu both too :)
[10:36] <rtp34783> azn_emo_boi101: what is your question?
[10:36] <Expl0ited> azn_emo_boi101: lol funny guy. either way anyone know where RXVT stores its options.
[10:36] <azn_emo_boi101> I don't have a qustion
[10:36] <Rafik> soundray, it returns : Can't open display
[10:36] <DistroJockey> Theaxiom, you're welcome. You will need to restart the nautilus process for it to appear as an option
[10:36] <azn_emo_boi101> Oh oh
[10:36] <azn_emo_boi101> I see
[10:36] <rtp34783> 11:33 < azn_emo_boi101> how can you use terminal?
[10:36] <azn_emo_boi101> No, I was talking about the IRC
[10:36] <Theaxiom> DistroJockey, How do I do that?
[10:36] <azn_emo_boi101> Yeah
[10:36] <azn_emo_boi101> Sorry
[10:36] <unop> Expl0ited, what kind of options?
[10:36] <hwilde> !enter | azn_emo_boi101
[10:36] <soundray> Rafik: hmm
[10:36] <azn_emo_boi101> sorry
[10:36] <DistroJockey> Theaxiom, killall nautilus  in a terminal should do the job
[10:36] <rtp34783> azn_emo_boi101: terminal based irc: irssi
[10:37] <DNAngel> Is ubuntu will fixed on 4530 later?, I really hope here. Coz I need do programming on Ubuntu. My old PC is fine with Ubuntu, but I need to run Ubuntu both too
[10:37] <Expl0ited> unop: I want to change background colors and stuff, or atleast its palatte.
[10:37] <azn_emo_boi101> Yah
[10:37] <azn_emo_boi101> thanks
[10:37] <DNAngel> Someone can help me?
[10:37] <hwilde> DNAngel, did you try the ultimate yet
[10:37] <unop> Expl0ited, in ~/.Xdefaults
[10:37] <Theaxiom> DistroJockey, thanks
[10:37] <Expl0ited> unop: thanks :D
[10:37] <enkrypt> I try to do "apt-get update" on an ubuntu 7.10, with normal sources.list, and I get the error messages saying "could not resolve 'alpha'" while that word is not even in sources.list ?
[10:37] <DistroJockey> Theaxiom, no problem
[10:37] <DNAngel> nope. too big for download. My connection is slow enough
[10:37] <hwilde> enkrypt, pastebin /etc/apt/sources.lst
[10:37] <Expl0ited> unop: wait, there is nothing with that name in ~/
[10:37] <Rafik> DNAngel, have you asked the laptop team ? #ubuntu-laptop
[10:38] <DNAngel> nope
[10:38] <enkrypt> hwilde: its the most normal sources.list, only contains archive.ubuntu.com univers etcetera
[10:38] <hwilde> enkrypt, pastebin /etc/apt/sources.lst
[10:38] <dougsko> anyone know of a way to copy and paste to and from terminals without using the mouse sorta like vim in visual mode?
[10:38] <soundray> Rafik: does it work when you do this: 'sudo xrandr -display :0 --output VGA --auto' ?
[10:38] <DNAngel> join  #ubuntu-lapto
[10:38] <hwilde> dougsko, you should be able to echo it to a file then open in the other term
[10:38] <Expl0ited> unop: rxvt doesn't have its own config files?
[10:39] <dougsko> hwilde: yeah but that wont work across different machines
[10:39] <unop> Expl0ited, not really no .. without that file, rxvt uses its defaults
[10:39] <DNAngel> and how can i fix error disk on ubuntu. My removable flash drive get some error
[10:39] <xim> is there a way to make it so evolution will only open one instance at a time, i keep finding like 6 of them open
[10:39] <hwilde> dougsko, you are trying to copy and paste across different machines?
[10:39] <DNAngel>  are u sure #ubuntu-laptop??? 1 person in room. and thts is me
[10:40] <Theaxiom> configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[10:40] <Theaxiom> - what does that mean?
[10:40] <hwilde> !laptop | DNAngel
[10:40] <Expl0ited> unop: there is this when I type 'locate rxvt' :
[10:40] <Expl0ited> V
[10:40] <Expl0ited> /etc/X11/rxvt.menu
[10:40] <hwilde> Theaxiom, probably you dont have permissions to make a file in that folder
[10:40] <unop> Expl0ited, don't paste in here
[10:40] <Rafik> soundray, nothing returned, seems to be ok
[10:40] <Expl0ited> omfg I forgot sorry :(
[10:40] <DNAngel> how can i fix error disk on ubuntu?. My removable flash drive get some error
[10:40] <dougsko> hwilde: yeah, i have a ton of different servers here, and i need to copy/paste a lot between terminals, so im just looking for a way to use my mouse less.
[10:40] <Circus-Killer> am i correct in thinking that i should not use fsck while the filesystem is still mounted?
[10:40] <azn_emo_boi101> expl0ited, sudo
[10:40] <Theaxiom> hwilde, a folder in my desktop...
[10:40] <hwilde> dougsko, scp between the machines
[10:40] <soundray> Rafik: but the external screen is still blank?
[10:41] <unop> Expl0ited, if you want to adjust rxvt settings.. create an ~/.Xdefaults file and add your settings in
[10:41] <Expl0ited> azn_emo_boi101: you don't need sudo for locate.. only for updatedb :P
[10:41] <azn_emo_boi101> idk
[10:41] <azn_emo_boi101> if you don't have permissions
[10:41] <soundray> Rafik: oh, sorry
[10:41] <Expl0ited> unop I found the examples file :( Im an idiot ...
[10:41] <Rafik> soundray, I'm on the command line ont the external screen
[10:41] <dougsko> hwilde: that would technically work, but it wouldnt exactly make my workflow more efficient
[10:41] <hwilde> dougsko, you should look into Synergy  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynergyHowto
[10:41] <soundray> Rafik: please try Alt-F7 now to see if X displays on the external
[10:41] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, sudo locate will usually give you different results to locate ..
[10:42] <Rafik> startx ?
[10:42] <azn_emo_boi101> oh
[10:42] <soundray> Rafik: no, Alt-F7
[10:42] <dougsko> hwilde: synergy is awesome, but there's no X on any of these machines
[10:42] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, you shouldn't use sudo unless you want to search for files that don't belong to you
[10:42] <DNAngel> erm, so maybe i just hope 4530 will support later then. well, my old PC is good enough until next ubuntu release then :P
[10:42] <Expl0ited> unop: true that.
[10:42] <Rafik> soundray, black screen
[10:42] <azn_emo_boi101> well, he said he may not have permissions
[10:42] <hwilde> dougsko, make a samba share and mount it on all the machines ?
[10:42] <soundray> Rafik: okay, try Ctrl-Alt-F9
[10:42] <hwilde> DNAngel, you need to try ultimate.
[10:43] <Expl0ited> azn_emo_boi101: sorry about this misunderstanding. its ok.
[10:43] <azn_emo_boi101> Yep
[10:43] <azn_emo_boi101> sorry
[10:43] <DNAngel> kk, I'll download it. maybe will done in 1 month xD.I  I mean need user GUI checkdisk for ubuntu
[10:43] <dougsko> hwilde: nah. basically it either comes down to some cool copy/paste trick i havent discovered yet, or im just gonna have to use the mouse
[10:43] <DistroJockey> soundray, Rafik : sounds to me like  xorg  doesn't have the setup for the second screen
[10:44] <Rafik> soundray, blinking "_" on the external monitor
[10:44] <soundray> DistroJockey: indeed. That's what we're trying to fix with xrandr ( Rafik)
[10:44] <dougsko> hwilde: bash  does have a vi mode, maybe visual mode works in that...
[10:44] <iori> hello
[10:44] <azn_emo_boi101> Is there a way to migrate ubuntu to a  new computer?
[10:45] <unop> dougsko, there is no visual mode for  set -o vi
[10:45] <EarthLion> hey, I am trying to enable sftp access for my users. They can current ssh in with no problems but, using sftp they get permission denied. In what config files are sftp users explicitely allowed or denied?
[10:45] <dougsko> unop: bummer :/
[10:45] <Rafik> DistroJockey, the problem is that the laptop screen is browken :/
[10:45] <soundray> Rafik: please do a Ctrl-Alt-F7 and try to login blindly (username and password, even if you don't see the prompt)
[10:45] <DistroJockey> soundray, but you used :0 right? Which would be the broken laptop screen?
[10:46] <GNU\colossus> hi all
[10:46] <soundray> DistroJockey: I'm assuming that there is one instance of X running, in which case the display number would be :0
[10:46] <dabbu> plz name a good html editor for ubuntu

[10:46] <DistroJockey> soundray, Rafik : yeah, that would be the default (broken) one
[10:46] <GNU\colossus> I just installed OO.org 3 beta2 onto an ubuntu system, and now I'd like to have all files opened with OOo 2.4 opened with 3.0 instead. How do I go about that? (Ubuntu 8.04, GNOME Desktop)
[10:47] <azn_emo_boi101> GNU, uninst 2.4?
[10:47] <tenbytes> hey any of you use geany?
[10:47] <unop> dabbu, bluefish, Kompozer
[10:47] <DistroJockey> soundray, Rafik : I'm assuming the external has never been set up in  xorg.conf
[10:47] <dabbu> azn_emo_boi101:so funny
[10:47] <tenbytes> i want to add a new file type so it can have syntax hightlighting
[10:47] <Expl0ited> !hostname > Expl0ited
[10:47] <azn_emo_boi101> dabbu what? it works.
[10:47] <GNU\colossus> azn_emo_boi101: impossible; ubuntu-desktop depends on that
[10:47] <soundray> DistroJockey: is there something else one could try, except xrandr --output VGA --auto? He's got the OS ati driver
[10:47] <azn_emo_boi101> GNU: Really?
[10:47] <Rafik> DistroJockey, I never used an external screen
[10:48] <azn_emo_boi101> dabbu: I use Gedit for html...
[10:48] <dabbu> unop:thanks...
[10:48] <dabbu> azn_emo_boi101:i know that
[10:48] <azn_emo_boi101> Firefox isn't opening.
[10:48] <dabbu> azn_emo_boi101:but i want a specific one
[10:48] <azn_emo_boi101> Help.
[10:48] <DistroJockey> soundray, I'm not familiar with the xrandr switches.  Does --output VGA mean physical output?
[10:48] <azn_emo_boi101> dabbu: oh
[10:48] <soundray> !html | dabbu
[10:49] <soundray> DistroJockey: yes
[10:49] <Rafik> soundray, DistroJockey ; should I try the same command with :1 ? ^^
[10:49] <DistroJockey> soundray, ahh. Rafik , no that won't help I don't think
[10:50] <soundray> Rafik: what do you get from 'sudo ddcprobe' (back in the console with Ctrl-Alt-F2)?
[10:50] <DistroJockey> soundray, Rafik : only thing I can think of is adding a  screen  definition in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:51] <azn_emo_boi101> Why won't firefox open?
[10:51] <soundray> DistroJockey: I'm very reluctant to fiddle with an apparently working xorg.conf when you can't see the results ( Rafik)
[10:51] <DistroJockey> Rafik, can you do the following please?:   sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit
[10:51] <DistroJockey> soundray, yeah, true
[10:51] <unop> azn_emo_boi101, another instance of firefox is runnign and has probably crashed
[10:52] <zyclop> azn_emo_boi101, have you tried running it from the console?
[10:52] <azn_emo_boi101> i closed them all from system monitor
[10:52] <azn_emo_boi101> no
[10:52] <unop> DistroJockey, uuoc :)  pastebinit < /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:52] <Rafik> soundray, DistroJockey : now i'm still having the blinking "_" on the external screen
[10:52] <etronik> sorry to be offtopic, but can you recommend an UML related channel ?? I don't know of any
[10:52] <zyclop> azn_emo_boi101, then do
[10:52] <DistroJockey> unop, uuoc?
[10:52] <soundray> Rafik: Hit Ctrl-Alt-F2 to get back to your console login
[10:52] <azn_emo_boi101> yeah nothing
[10:52] <unop> DistroJockey, useless use of cat. :)
[10:52] <soundray> Rafik: and forget ddcprobe
[10:53] <DistroJockey> unop, fair enough :)
[10:53] <soundray> Rafik: please try 'xrandr -display :0' instead
[10:53] <azn_emo_boi101> firefox still wont open
[10:53] <Rafik> soundray, ok
[10:53] <DistroJockey> unop, thanks :)
[10:53] <zyclop> azn_emo_boi101, are there any error messages?
[10:53] <azn_emo_boi101> no
