[03:49] <Tu13es> genii: yes, I believe so
[03:49] <Pici> dzb_: This isnt really an ubuntu specific question, but I'll try to help.  Do you even have an irc server running on djdz.de ?
[03:49] <genii> Tu13es: eg: hda1 hda5 hdb3    or wherever
[03:49] <Tu13es> I believe /dev/sda4
[03:50] <Tu13es> grub> find /boot/grub/stage1 says it's hd0,3 which would mean sda4
[03:50] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: okay. the next approach would be to download the nvidia driver directly from nvidia.com and install it.
[03:51] <Pici> vnese: If this is happening on the LiveCD, have you checked the md5 of the disc?
[03:51] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: find the driver for me? =[ I think I will mess up
[03:51] <genii> Tu13es: OK, so then in a console:   mkdir /mnt/sda4      then:      mount /dev/sda4 /mntsda4            then you should be able to find your menu.lst at   /mnt/sda4/boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:51] <kercyr> stefg, I know what the bot is telling you.  but apparently, something broke recently.  Something about a md5sum mismatch.
[03:52] <Tu13es> thanks genii :)
[03:52] <dzb_> Pici, of cource, it's ngircd
[03:52] <kercyr> I just installed manually, and it works...  but there is an issue with the "usual" paths (i.e. from the repo) to installing flash right now.
[03:52] <stefg> kercyr: i see. but imho even autoinstallation from firefox works in feisty, and the package does nothing more, than d/l and install the tar.gz. o installing manually doe not hurt
[03:52] <genii> Tu13es: np. I had a typo there, missed a / in /mntsda4   should be /mnt/sda4  in the mount command
[03:53] <Tu13es> genii: yep, no worries
[03:53] <Maackey> hi
[03:53] <kercyr> stefg, yeah...  it was easier than I thought.  I had thought that the tar.gz file would have something to compile, but it only had three files.
[03:54] <Borisblue>  /join #wesnoth
[03:54] <stefg> kercyr: flash is binary only ... nonfree
[03:54] <Pici> dzb_: To specify a port with telnet, you dont use a colon (:), put a space between the host and port
[03:54] <genii> Pici Yes that colon thing is an old Windoze habit I still fall into :)
[03:55] <pawan> cant see tab names in xmms player
[03:55] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: have a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=441658&highlight=8400m and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual
[03:55] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: if you have any problems, let me know. i should really be getting to do some work now
[03:55] <dzb_> Pici, thx, it's working!
[03:55] <genii> superjedi: Did you get it figured out yet?
[03:55] <pawan> where to download new screensavers
[03:56] <Maackey> can anyone help me with flash on a 64bit system?
[03:56] <stefg> !flash64
[03:56] <ubotu> You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[03:56] <blairellis> Anyone want to possibly tell me why I can play certain DVD's but when I throw in BadBoys II it wont work?
[03:56] <genii> work, AFK 2-3 mins
[03:56] <profanephobia> the flash for firefox doesnt work that well
[03:56] <pawan_> hi
[03:56] <profanephobia> maackey i recommend using the 32 bit firefox installation
[03:57] <profanephobia> then install the 32 bit flash plugin
[03:57] <pawan> hi
[03:57] <funkmaster> hi there ppl :)
[03:57] <profanephobia> whats happenin
[03:57] <pawan> where to download new screensavers
[03:57] <Tu13es> how can I bring up a terminal with the keyboard?
[03:57] <funkmaster> can someone tell me the dependencies or which repos i need for xserver-xorg-video-via?
[03:57] <Tu13es> my touchpad doesn't appear to work
[03:58] <blairellis> pawan: interfacelift
[03:58] <superjedi> Nah.  Fond another easy to install one
[03:58] <blairellis> oh wait...
[03:58] <blairellis> screensavers...
[03:58] <pawan> whats that
[03:58] <funkmaster> cuz sudo apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg-video-via doesn't work for me :/
[03:58] <blairellis> Appologies, I was thinking you wanted backgrounds.

[03:58] <slabby> anyone have a guide for setting up wine for feisty?
[03:58] <moldy> trying to mount nfsv4 shares with sec=krb5, i always get "rpc.gssd appears not to be running" and then the mount fails -- but rpc.gssd IS running -- any ideas? is this a bug in ubuntu?
[03:58] <Pici> PriceChild: #ubuntu+1  :p
[03:59] <profanephobia> tul3es go to the system -> prefrences -> keyboard shortcuts to set the shortcut there
[03:59] <pawan> screensavers
[03:59] <PriceChild> Pici, argh sorry should've been there... annoying xchat taking ages to load channels :)
[03:59] <genii> moldy It looks like the init.d entry doesn't use a lockfile for the pid and it gets confused
[03:59] <Tu13es> profanephobia: i can't go anywhere, my mouse doesn't work
[03:59] <profanephobia> slabby do you have wine alredy installed and need to configure or install as well
[03:59] <moldy> genii: hmm. does this mean that this is not the actual reason for the nfs mount failing?
[04:00] <profanephobia> tul3es what laptop do you have
[04:01] <system79> Anyone knows how to make ubuntu detect my video card (Nvidia 7600 GT)?
[04:01] <slabby> profanephobia, I have installed 0.9.33, need to configure
[04:01] <Tu13es> profanephobia: MacBook
[04:01] <slabby> profanephobia, utorrent is the first app i want to run
[04:01] <genii> moldy Well, it's a bit beyond me, frankly. but i know previously I had some faulty init.d entries just doing exactly like that. It would start the daemon, not assign a pid/lockfile. then when a process needing it looks for the lockfile to see if it's running, it reports not running at all and failes
[04:01] <n2diy> How can you determine which printer port is active, lshw doesn't show it, and I can't find it listed in dmesg either?
[04:02] <kaminix> How do I tell aptitude to not upgrade a package?
[04:02] <moldy> genii: hmm ok, thx

[04:05] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: yes
[04:06] <genii> dzb_: I don't usually use it that way, I normally have in it's conf file somewhere like /opt/eggdrop   the settings of what channels to autojoin already
[04:06] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: good. then open a terminal and enter 'cd Desktop'. you should now be able to see the driver (enter 'ls')
[04:07] <profanephobia> iso: are you using a samba server
[04:07] <okiaro> hi. I have a window called 'untitled window' that refuses to close when i right click on it and select close. How can i find which process it belongs to so that i can kill it?

[04:08] <WereCatf> Hi peeps. I'm having trouble getting my laptop's LCD working correctly with the nvidia drivers..They detect the native resolution as 968x768 when in reality it's 1024x768. With nv driver it works, but then I won't get direct rendering. Any suggestions on how to force the correct resolution?
[04:09] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: no such file or drectory
[04:09] <howlingmadhowie> okiaro: alt+F2 'xkill' then click on the window you want to kill
[04:10] <markqvist> Hey there :) does anyone know how to hide mounted drives from my gnome desktop?
[04:10] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: 'ls' what do you see?
[04:10] <mikepj> I have a kernel update question.  Recently I came across a blog entry noting a data corruption problem on machines with over 4Gb of memory.  This was due to a kernel bug.  I was wondering if the patch for this has been merged into the 6.06 LTS version of Ubuntu.  The blog entry is here:  http://blogs.smugmug.com/don/2007/07/25/silent-data-corruption-on-amd-servers/
[04:10] <genii> dzb_: I think you need to run it first time with some special option when you change the conf, then it makes a new channel file with the right info. ! minute i'll look it up
[04:10] <m_> do anyone know the code to get ubuntu? not Kubuntu?
[04:10] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: desktop examples sudo
[04:10] <radioaktivstorm> m_ sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[04:10] <oldude67> Quinton, cd /Desktop
[04:10] <Jack_Sparrow> m_: HAve you already installed the kubuntu -desktop
[04:10] <okiaro> howlingmadhowie, that just seems to crash nautilus and the window remains
[04:10] <iso> profanephobia: not on the linux side
[04:11] <howlingmadhowie> 'cd desktop'

[04:12] <m_> do anyone know what the code to get ubuntu is? i'm a newbie
[04:12] <profanephobia> iso: no one sec ill post permenant mount
[04:13] <radioaktivstorm> m_ if youre trying to install ubuntu.... open a terminal and type sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[04:13] <profanephobia> iso: does it require a password?
[04:13] <n2diy> m_, I don't understand your question? What are you running now?
[04:13] <Jack_Sparrow> m_: Have you already installed the kubuntu -desktop and want the ubnuntu-desktop
[04:13] <m_> yes
[04:13] <iso> profanephobia: yes, i have something similar in my fstab right now
[04:14] <radioaktivstorm> m_: if youre trying to install ubuntu.... open a terminal and type sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[04:14] <n2diy> Jack_Sparrow: GL ;)
[04:14] <m_> thx
[04:14] <Jack_Sparrow> m_: Install the ubuntu-desktop   synaptic...
[04:14] <genii> dzb_: Run it with the option  -m   to make new files
[04:14] <profanephobia> iso: edit the /root/.smbcredentials first with username and password
[04:14] <Jack_Sparrow> n2diy: :)  gotta go soon anyhow.. Dr appt
[04:14] <dzb_> genii, thats what i did: ./eggdrop -m eggdrop.conf
[04:15] <profanephobia> username=winusername
[04:15] <profanephobia> password=winpassword
[04:15] <n2diy> Jack_Sparrow: GL with the Dr.
[04:15] <saltaren> Anyone know a nice program for temperature monitoring trough the terminal?
[04:15] <profanephobia> iso: and i was use nano or vim to edit these files
[04:15] <pop> oi td bm
[04:15] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: sorry, my boss just called :) so, where were we? 'ls' replies that there is a file called 'desktop' (which surprises me because it is usually called 'Desktop') and when you enter 'cd Desktop' it replies "no such file or directory".
[04:15] <n2diy> saltaren: search synaptic for sensors.
[04:16] <genii> dzb_: Then you logged onto the server and made a channel with the name in the conf  that you want it to join?
[04:16] <Quinton_> howlingmanhowie: yeah
[04:16] <howlingmadhowie> okiaro: that's strange. try xwininfo and then click on the window
[04:16] <savetheWorld> howlingmadhowie: case matters
[04:16] <profanephobia> iso: once you added the password and username info open your fstab file and add //netbiosname/sharename    /media/sharename        cifs    credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
[04:16] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: i just need step by step for beryl and nvidia?
[04:17] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: i can do everything else on my own
[04:17] <genii> dzb_: I remember some chicken-egg thing like this. I think I had to open the channel first, then run the bot.
[04:17] <esteem> hi guys, how do I mount a ".img" file?
[04:17] <iso> 10:16 < profanephobia> iso: once you added the password and username info open your fstab file and add //netbiosname/sharename     /media/sharename        cifs    credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
[04:17] <W_McL> in #ubuntu-de
[04:17] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: and you're sure you entered 'cd Desktop' and not 'cd desktop'?
[04:18] <CyberWorld> what happens to all the top and bottom panels when you switch desktops
[04:18] <okiaro> howlingmadhowie, done. can i use any info printed there to  kill it?
[04:18] <CyberWorld> how do you get back to 1
[04:18] <dzb_> genii, the channel is open, I am conencted
[04:18] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: oh... ok so whats next lol ?
[04:18] <n2diy> esteem, you don't mount files, only file systems.
[04:18] <CyberWorld> It just a screen and that's it
[04:18] <CyberWorld> just wall paper
[04:18] <iso> profanphobia: thanks! will that persist?
[04:18] <esteem> n2diy:  well, it was a DD backup of a partition
[04:18] <genii> dzb_: If it's definitely running and you are in the right channel, type in:    /msg <botname> Hello             (or whatever the botname is and the trigger word is. Usually the trigger word is hello or Hi or Hello)
[04:18] <howlingmadhowie> okiaro: i'm not sure how... just a second. what does 'ps aux | grep <name of program you want to kill>' return?
[04:19] <profanephobia> iso: it should i havent had problems with it before
[04:19] <CyberWorld> anyone?
[04:19] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: i'd move the driver to the /root directory.
[04:19] <CyberWorld> simple question I think
[04:19] <Jack_Sparrow> howlingmadhowie: Good luck this morning...
[04:19] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: wheres that?
[04:19] <profanephobia> iso: also make a backup of your fstab file
[04:19] <n2diy> esteem, and it is an .img file? I don't know then.
[04:20] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: enter 'sudo -i' and your password. then 'mv /home/quinton/Desktop/NVIDIA* $HOME'
[04:20] <okiaro> howlingmadhowie, thats the problem - i don't know the name of the program. The window seems to be from a crashed instance of VLC but killing all vlc processes hasn't helped
[04:20] <nikin> Restricted driver manager tels me that i cant install the nvidia driver until i fix broken packages... but there arent any.. i checked it with synaptic
[04:20] <dzb_> genii: doing that leads to this  I don't recognize you from that host.
[04:20] <dzb_>  Either you are using someone else's nickname or you need to type: /MSG chiller IDENT (password)
[04:20] <howlingmadhowie> okiaro: mm. i'd recommend restarting gdm
[04:20] <esteem> n2diy:  I used 'sudo dd if=/dev/sdb2 of=/home/owner/Desktop/xn902.img'
[04:20] <okiaro> howlingmadhowie, that's what i was afraid of :-/
[04:20] <Tu13es> anyone here running Ubuntu on a MacBook?
[04:21] <profanephobia> tul3es: is your macbook the duo core
[04:21] <okiaro> howlingmadhowie, ok thanks for your help
[04:21] <genii> dzb_: Ah, so you need to make conf changes then allowing your username to be able to connect from localhost/<IP_ADDRESS> or relax the IP filtering stuff
[04:21] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: just put a >
[04:21] <Tu13es> profanephobia: it's a brand new C2D
[04:21] <howlingmadhowie> okiaro: what does 'ps axjf' tell you?
[04:21] <n2diy> esteem, Sorry, I haven't played with dd. Re-ask your question including dd, the .img seemed like a simple image/picture file question.
[04:21] <Tu13es> the touchpad was working until I compiled a custom kernel just now
[04:22] <iso> profanephobia: my fstab is set up this way, however I found the mount broken one day.  mount -a fixed it, but i'm wondering if there's a mechinism that will detect and remount?
[04:22] <okiaro> howlingmadhowie, what should i be looking for? there is a lot of stuff
[04:22] <genii> dzb_: It's been a while since i poked around with IRC, my old IRC server is taken down now
[04:22] <derenrich> Is there a save files and settings wizard under ubuntu like there is for windowS?
[04:22] <howlingmadhowie> okiaro: enter 'ps axjf', search for '/usr/sbin/gdm' and see if there are any strange child processes
[04:22] <profanephobia> tul3es: ok so the macbook you have has reported bugs with the current linux headers.. if you want try gsynaptic
[04:23] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: sounds good. enter 'cd $HOME'
[04:23] <derenrich> I want to reformat and reinstall but i don't feel like setting everything up again
[04:23] <dyrne> derenrich: we call this 'tar' :) there might be a gui backup though i guess
[04:23] <genii> dzb_: I'll see if I can find you a useful help site/tutorial
[04:23] <dzb_> genii, here's my conf file I'm looking through it at the moment http://djdz.de/eggdrop.conf
[04:23] <mzuverink> I have a My Book by Western Digital, several actually.  What command can I use to rename them to something other that :My Book"?
[04:23] <okiaro> howlingmadhowie, just xgl and xorg and their children
[04:23] <derenrich> dyrne: But I don't feel like figuring out what I need to tar and what I don't
[04:23] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: just loaded root@ubuntu again
[04:24] <profanephobia> iso: i would try auotFS
[04:24] <profanephobia> autoFS*
[04:24] <Tu13es> profanephobia: I installed that but when I run it I get "GSynaptics couldn't initialize.  You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Confir to use GSynaptics"
[04:24] <dyrne> derenrich: it is easier than windows because everything is saved in .config files and dirs in your home so if you wanted to you could just copy these to a directory called backup or whatever and if you had to restore just copy em back overwriting the bad ones
[04:24] <moldy> where is the "strings" command in ubuntu?
[04:24] <profanephobia> ok
[04:24] <iso> profanphobia: thank you. i will give that a try
[04:24] <genii> dzb_: OK I'll take a look. I do not have my old working one to compare to  but i'll do my best :)
[04:24] <profanephobia> iso np
[04:25] <derenrich> dyrne: Well, most things are, but things like apache configuration or samba configuration are not stored there
[04:25] <JodiH> whats the best mail server to use that can be configured to foreward all mail to a second internal exchange server
[04:25] <howlingmadhowie> okiaro: the program probably has the same PGID as /usr/bin/gnome-session
[04:25] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: and what do 'pwd' and 'ls' now say?
[04:25] <profanephobia> tul3es: ok open you xorg.conf file for editiing
[04:25] <Tu13es> yeah, I opened it and added "SHMConfig" "true" to no avail
[04:26] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: /root and root@ubuntu:~#
[04:26] <dzb_> genii, it now seems that I conected through hello
[04:26] <dzb_> genii, I had to identify first...
[04:26] <profanephobia> tul3es: ok well lets try this...uninstall gsynaptic and install qsynaptic see if it works
[04:26] <wxc> hello
[04:26] <dzb_> genii, i did so and now I#ve been verified, how can i now join a channel
[04:27] <checkers> hi all, what's the difference between "kubuntu-7.04-alternate-i386.iso" and "kubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso"?
[04:27] <profanephobia> checkerrs: alternate is text based install
[04:27] <wxc> xchat is very good
[04:27] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: there's nothing in the directory? strange. 'ls /home/quinton/Desktop'. is the driver you downloaded from the nvidia website still there? if yes, can you write the first 5 letters?
[04:27] <checkers> profanephobia, is that the only change?
[04:27] <n2diy> checkers: alternate is a cli install, and desktop is a gui install.
[04:27] <AYapejianMI> yea, xchat is great
[04:28] <checkers> righto, thanks
[04:28] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: write the first 5 letters?
[04:28] <profanephobia> checkers: as far as i know...i usually only use alternate if graphical wont work for some reason
[04:28] <nikin> Restricted driver manager tels me that i cant install the nvidia driver until i fix broken packages... but there arent any.. i checked it with synaptic
[04:28] <nikin> any idea?
[04:28] <lmosher> Can anyone help me figure out how to disable the screensaver lock from activating on suspend/resume? I've looked in all the scripts. It only happens when I physically hit the suspend button, if i activate the scripts manually it doesn't show.
[04:29] <profanephobia> nikin do you have your restricted repos in use
[04:29] <nikin> profanephobia: il check, but i should
[04:29] <checkers> does the alternate CD need to boot into linux before you can install it?
[04:29] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: just tell me the first 5 letters
[04:29] <genii> dzb_: Actually i think the file that is pertinent here is the ircd.conf file
[04:29] <nikin> profanephobia: yes.. they are enabled
[04:29] <sn0> checkers it boots straight to the debian-installer in text mode, there is no desktop environment like with the desktop cd
[04:30] <profanephobia> checkrs: im almost posistiv ethat the alternate does not use ubuntu live
[04:30] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: NVIDI ?
[04:30] <genii> dzb_: Or hybrid-ircd.conf   I can't remember offhand
[04:30] <checkers> perfect
[04:30] <checkers> thanks you three :)
[04:30] <Falstius> I've had problems with xorg locking up while taking 100% of the processor when using the nvidia driver (it hasn't happened yet with the NV driver) and I think it only happens when running vmplayer (its been running alot).  I've used two different video cards.  Has anyone heard of any bugs that sound like this?
[04:31] <profanephobia> nikin: one sec
[04:31] <nikin> profanephobia: ok
[04:31] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: okay. now on the console (assuming you still have a root prompt) enter 'mv /home/quinton/Desktop/NVIDI* $HOME'
[04:31] <genii> dzb_: Your eggdrop.conf file looks fine to me by the way, but then as i said I do not have my old working one to compare with :(
[04:32] <n2diy> profanephobia: checkers, so how is Ubuntu installed from the cd, do you need to boot into it, or can you run it from the current OS?
[04:32] <n2diy> *alternat CD
[04:32] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie
[04:32] <n2diy> *alternate CD
[04:32] <profanephobia> n2diy: you will need to boot from the disk
[04:32] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: no destination
[04:32] <acke> how do i eject a cd in kubuntu running on a powerpc?
[04:33] <acke> rightlick eject doesnt work
[04:33] <neol> ~is their any text based irc software install by default in ubuntu 7.04 & 6.06, like irssi.... so i can connect while i'm booting from Ubuntu Live Cd... plz some one tell me ??? :(
[04:34] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: okay, you're typing something wrongly. try this 'mv /home/quinton/Desktop/NVIDI* /root'
[04:34] <checkers> n2diy, I was referring to the fact that you *dont* need to boot into a whole linux OS off the CD before you can install it
[04:34] <genii> dzb_: I think if you maybe just try to authenticate your user password it will add the new location you are logging in from to it's list of places you connect from.
[04:34] <jhaig> acke: I don't know, but is there a CD eject key on the Mac keyboard?
[04:34] <checkers> which is a large saving of time
[04:34] <n2diy> profanephobia: Bummer! I FC1 on my laptop, and I want to put Dapper on it, but I can't boot from the cdrom drive, and I only have 250megs of free disk space.
[04:34] <dzb_> genii, well I allready did and thats what happened
[04:34] <n2diy> checkers: roger that. good luck.
[04:34] <Pici> neol: I think irssi is there.
[04:34] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: says root@ubuntu etc...
[04:34] <dzb_> genii, but I still cant figure out how to get it into teh channel
[04:35] <neol> Pici: no its not their dude
[04:35] <neol> Pici: i already checked it :(
[04:35] <profanephobia> nikin: have you checked in the synaptic manager under edit -> fix broken packages
[04:35] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: now what?
[04:35] <Pici> neol: Er. Then you can install it if you have an active network connection.
[04:35] <W_McL> neol, it's at least installable, but probably not on the live cd :(
[04:35] <profanephobia> n2diy: then i would recommend maybe installing another distro like damn small linux onto a flash drive
[04:36] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: okay: 'cd' and 'ls'. you should see the NVIDIA driver
[04:36] <nikin> profanephobia: i did.. no effect
[04:36] <DK_II> how do I reconfigure ubuntu to detect my new monitor?
[04:36] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: yes
[04:36] <neol> Pici: W_McL but their should some thing like text based chatting for connecting thru irc channedl for asking help if we cannot boot in graphical mode ???
[04:37] <n2diy> profanephobia: Yep, I'm exploring that path, but how would I go from DSL to Ubuntu?
[04:37] <W_McL> neol, it would be useful
[04:37] <profanephobia> nikin: ok try running sudo aptitude purge nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-common
[04:37] <genii> dzb_: When you do the /msg <botname> Hello     it calls it up
[04:37] <neol> W_McL: thats what i'm asking dude, is their any software installed like that by default in ubuntu ??? :(
[04:37] <dzb_> genii, yes and I allready loged in successfully
[04:38] <neol> can we use GAIM in text mode ??? :(
[04:38] <profanephobia> n2diy: you're gonna need more space for ubuntu unless you don't install a lot of packages
[04:38] <W_McL> neol, i understand your question, but i really don't know if there's aterminal based irc client on the live cd
[04:38] <MTecknology> After dealing with 3 Fedora servers and 2 Windows servers, I would like to take a moment to thank all of the developers and people that help other people in this channel for the magnificent job they've done. If I could get beryl and my stylus to work i'd be in heaven :D
[04:39] <genii> dzb_: Looking for a sample eggdrop.conf which tells it to keep trying to reconnect every so often, brb
[04:39] <checkers> beryl on a server? 0.0
[04:39] <MTecknology> also - THANKYOU for having a cli way to do upgrades!!!
[04:39] <dek> anyone know if there is a way to edit the windows registry from Ubuntu?
[04:39] <MTecknology> checkers, my own system is ubuntu
[04:39] <neol> W_McL: lets see if someone else can help me out here. Thanks for ur help... Can we use GAIM in  text mode buddy ???
[04:39] <nikin> profanephobia: should i reinstall the restricted modules?
[04:39] <CyberWorld> I get get a blank screen when every I switch desktops????
[04:39] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: now?
[04:39] <CyberWorld> how do I get to 1 again
[04:39] <profanephobia> dek: do you mean the wine version or an actual windows installation
[04:39] <CyberWorld> and get the panels showing
[04:39] <CyberWorld> I can press the calc button
[04:40] <dek> the actual windows reg
[04:40] <CyberWorld> it doesn't lock up
[04:40] <Pici> dek: You could try running regedit with wine and connecting to a network registry.  I have no idea if that will actually work.
[04:40] <profanephobia> nikin: did that run without errors
[04:40] <MTecknology> checkers, I'd love it if I could change the fedora systems to ubuntu :) - but it's not up to me :(
[04:40] <n2diy> profanephobia: Hell, if I can shoe horn FC1 onto the drive, I can do it with Dapper. But the laptop is ancient, no Nic card, no USB, so the only path is the CDROM, which isn't bootable.
[04:40] <W_McL> neol, no. gaim is a gnome program which requires X and at least some gtk libraries
[04:40] <nikin> profanephobia: no errors.. just it uninstalled the restricted kernel modules
[04:40] <checkers> :P I'm a fedora guy actually
[04:40] <CyberWorld> what do I need to do?
[04:40] <neol> W_McL: i c
[04:40] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: cool. now you can carry on with the instructions on the nvidia site ( or on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual ). just remember to "sudo -i" to get to a root window, and then "cd /root" to get to the directory with the driver in it before running "sh ./NVIDIA*" again, otherwise you won't find it
[04:40] <checkers> but too much hacking is required to make it work on my laptop, so I use ubuntu on it
[04:40] <CyberWorld> I can close X windows ctr-alt-backspace
[04:41] <profanephobia> nikin: did it show any broken package (it usually does if any are broken)
[04:41] <CyberWorld> add adjust sound and start calc with calculater button
[04:41] <molkko> anybody knows a troubleshooting guide for this particular problem: gscanbus and lsmod seems to tell me that my firewire card is OK with ubuntu but when I connect camcorder, gscanbus (firewire) does not detect the camcorder at all. google could not help with this :(
[04:41] <dek> thanks for the info.  I'll be back
[04:41] <wit> i want to instyall ubuntu on a laptop that does nopt have a working booting cd only a usb external cd and no floppy. i have xp insalled with 3 partions how can i uinstall uibuntu
[04:42] <nikin> profanephobia: yep.. mainly edgy kernel modules
[04:42] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: it say to turn off x server before install ?
[04:43] <profanephobia> nikin: ok then try to reinstall the restricted modules
[04:43] <kuitang> How do I set up dhcpd to use one specific NIC?
[04:44] <oldude67> kuitang, try dhcpcd eth0 or eth1 or what ever the number is for it
[04:44] <adrian_5452> hello
[04:44] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: to do that, enter 'Ctrl+Alt+F2'. log in. 'sudo -i', enter password. '/etc/init.d/gdm stop'
[04:44] <CyberWorld> Am I here?
[04:44] <nikin> profanephobia: reinstalled sucesfully
[04:44] <PriceChild> CyberWorld, yes
[04:44] <kuitang> oldude67: not dhcpd, dhcpd
[04:44] <nephish> kuitang_: i use firestarter
[04:45] <CyberWorld> nobody has an answer to a novel question
[04:45] <profanephobia> nikin: ok great see if it lets you use restricted
[04:45] <nephish> kuitang_: do you mean to serve dhcp or get an ip with it ?
[04:45] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: then how do i get back to the nvidia installer?
[04:45] <kuitang> serve
[04:46] <profanephobia> cyberworld: do you have a novell question
[04:46] <W_McL> neol, if that helps you, here is a howto of customizing live cds: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[04:46] <Mishaal> is Intel (R) 82852/82855GM/GME graphic controler good ???
[04:46] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: now enter 'sh ./NVIDIA*'
[04:46] <nephish> kuitang_: using ubuntu ?
[04:46] <nephish> or kubuntu
[04:46] <nephish> >
[04:46] <kuitang> nephish: ltsp on ubuntu
[04:46] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: and follow the on screen instructions
[04:46] <nikin> profanephobia: no luck :(
[04:46] <CyberWorld> a better question would be what is the keyboard sequence to switch desktops????
[04:46] <nikin> profanephobia: the same problem
[04:47] <paotzu> cyberworld: alt-function key for some window managers, alt-hjkl for others
[04:47] <CyberWorld> this is gnome paotzu
[04:47] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: wtf... no matching precompiled kernel interface was found on NVIDIA
[04:47] <nephish> kuitang_: yeah, try firestarter. i use it to serve dhcp to home LAN. i get dhcp from ISP > serve to LAN on another nic
[04:47] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: it cant find a precompiled kernel
[04:48] <profanephobia> nikin: ok whats your card
[04:48] <nikin> its an MSI FX5200
[04:48] <whatspy> hello, how do we kill a graphical application ? Some file copy dialog box froze due to insufficient access rights but now it won't leave
[04:48] <CyberWorld> paotzu, what the function key F1 F2 I tried that and what is hjkl?
[04:48] <CyberWorld> thanks in advance
[04:48] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: ERROR: you do not appear to have libc header files installed on your system. Please install your distibution's libc development package ?
[04:48] <stuart-> is there a guitar pro for ubuntu as well?
[04:49] <profanephobia> whatspy: alt+f2 "xkill" click app window
[04:49] <nephish> whatspy_: use xkill either from Alt-F2 or from a terminal. It turns the cursor into a little skull , click that on the app
[04:49] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: okay. you'll need that. quit the installation and follow the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual
[04:49] <Mishaal> hello guys !!
[04:49] <Mishaal> is Intel (R) 82852/82855GM/GME graphic controler good ???
[04:49] <whatspy> xkill ? sounds cool, okay
[04:49] <nikin> profanephobia: FX5200
[04:49] <genii> dzb_: Bah, I'm not having much luck with it. I'm pretty sure the channel needs +cycle    but you have that already. If you have the channel open and are in it, stop the bot then restart it to see if it joins now. If the bot starts first then you open the channel it doesn't always keep looking to see if there is one it should be trying to join
[04:49] <whatspy> oh yeah that little skull ! hadn't seen it for years
[04:49] <nephish> hehe
[04:50] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: you can return to the X server by entering ctrl+alt+f7
[04:50] <Pici> Mishaal: ##hardware
[04:51] <profanephobia> nikin: open your xorg.conf and see whether or not it selects nvidia or nv in the driver section
[04:51] <jamesu> Hello, Anyway to enable username and password with my https server with Ubuntu Feisty ?

[04:54] <jamesu> thanks for trying. Anybdy else there know how to do that ?
[04:54] <profanephobia> nikin: your xorg.conf should be using "nvidia" as the driver
[04:54] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: upon installing the essentials it says it couldnt find the package
[04:54] <zefyrus> hi all
[04:54] <kahrytan> Anyone know how to use gdesklets?
[04:54] <nikin> profanephobia: ok.. i reconfigure it.. so il be back in few minutes
[04:55] <profanephobia> ok
[04:55] <zefyrus> I've just upgraded to gutsy and my Turion 64 X2 have the second core disabled !!!
[04:55] <Tomcat_> zefyrus: #ubuntu+1
[04:56] <malocite> has anyone here ever got lirc to work?  for ir remotes?
[04:56] <profanephobia> zefyrus: i would strongly recommend you downgrade to feisty
[04:56] <zefyrus> Tomcat_, tks
[04:56] <Tomcat_> malocite: Are you sure that you need it?
[04:56] <malocite> well... I wanted to use my computer as a media center
[04:56] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: i'm wondering if i can dial in from outside and do this for you. it's starting to take way to long
[04:56] <zefyrus> profanephobia, i like to test and send bugs
[04:56] <malocite> I even bought a shiny new remote and ir receiver :(
[04:56] <Tomcat_> malocite: I have a infrared remote for a hauppauge tv card... it works with a kernel driver and is recognized like a mouse/keyboard. :)
[04:57] <esteem> I have a partitioned compact flash card,  and I'm trying to get DD to realize that it is just one single CF card so that I am able to totally clone the CF card of the same size to another.
[04:57] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: please?
[04:57] <malocite> hmmmm
[04:57] <profanephobia> zefyrus: more power to ya then good luck and thanks
[04:57] <Tomcat_> malocite: I'll see if I can find you some info.
[04:57] <kahrytan> Does anyone know how to move gdesklets?
[04:57] <zefyrus> profanephobia, :)
[04:57] <Tomcat_> malocite: Because if it's just "another mouse", you can just remap the keys, or script them.
[04:58] <malocite> yeah I guess you could do that...
[04:58] <HoboBen> Hi all. How can I delete certain programs from appearing in my right click > "Open With" menu? Is there a key in the gnome config editor?
[04:58] <Cae> quick question..ubuntu machine..why on earth would one user save command history (root, basically, by a different name) and the regular user accounts not?
[04:58] <malocite> i know the ir works, cause I was able to get some response from a test signal
[04:58] <Cae> the .bashrc files are not different, and 'set' shows that HISTSIZE and whatnot are actually
[04:58] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: build-essential should be in the apt cache. did you cut and paste the line from the webpage into a terminal?
[04:58] <Cae> *actually set
[04:58] <twoleggedman> anyone else having problems Connecting to ca.archive.ubuntu.com
[04:59] <malocite> lirc is so annoying, its a shame no one has written anything a little easier yet
[04:59] <genii> dzb_: Sorry not to be more help.  I found some places you may get find what info you need: http://www.ircadmin.net/eggdrop/official/  and http://www.egghelp.org/  has very good info from the left side frame, including the command reference info and setup tips etc
[04:59] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: not cut and paste...
[04:59] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: then try it and see if it works
[04:59] <malocite> once thats done I just have to get my tv out to work properly, and I am there :)
[05:01] <axisys> I can access a remote windows folder thru Places -> Connect to Server.. how do I mount/map it to a local folder?
[05:01] <moustafa> can nobody help me?
[05:01] <Tomcat_> malocite: Sorry, can't find exactly how I found out about that stuff... you could try googling for "ir-kbd-i2c" (that's the driver I'm using) or just "i2c remote control"...
[05:01] <moustafa> I am talking with you now.
[05:01] <iNcrease> what command must i type to (clear temporary files , sort, defrag... my files on hdd)
[05:01] <malocite> what is the i2c?
[05:01] <moustafa> I have a problem M.R
[05:01] <malocite> that gets mentioned a lot in the lirc stuff
[05:02] <[HW] Anonymous> errr.....
[05:02] <Tomcat_> malocite: http://www.linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/Remote_controllers#Winfast_and_Hauppauge_remotes_supported_in_kernel <--- Here's some basic info
[05:02] <moustafa> it's about vividas soft wear
[05:02] <HoboBen> Hi all. How can I delete certain programs from appearing in my right click > "Open With" menu? Is there a key in the gnome config editor?
[05:02] <Tomcat_> malocite: No idea really... some kernel interface.
[05:02] <varka> malocite: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I%C2%B2C
[05:02] <moustafa> I want to install vividas
[05:02] <Sonicadvance1> I have a network card installed that SHOULD be using the tulip module, but it isn't, any way to force it to use the Tulip module?
[05:02] <osxdude|lap> !2c | malocite
[05:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 2c - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:02] <moustafa> into linux ubuntu 7.4
[05:02] <[HW] Anonymous> hi, can i ask something about ShipIt free CDs ?
[05:02] <osxdude|lap> !i2c
[05:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about i2c - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:02] <Borisblue> has anyone successfully installed wesnoth development version on ubuntu?
[05:02] <malocite> well, lets take a read on that
[05:02] <moustafa> Can nobody help me?
[05:02] <moustafa> vividas
[05:02] <Quinton_> howlingmadhowie: it just says to isnert the edgy cd and hit enter so i do and then it doesnt load the cd or work
[05:02] <Catoptromancy_> wesnoth was quite easy
[05:03] <Catoptromancy_> Borisblue, how does it not install?
[05:03] <osxdude|lap> [HW] Anonymous yes
[05:03] <profanephobia> borisblue: yes but it was pretty hard
[05:03] <orbin> HoboBen: rightclick  on a file in nautilus > properties i > open with tab
[05:03] <Catoptromancy_> boredand1logging, you only need a few libs
[05:03] <Catoptromancy_> Borisblue,
[05:03] <Catoptromancy_> heh
[05:03] <malocite> so that means i2c is the standard for remotes in this case
[05:04] <[HW] Anonymous> uh, I'm going to request Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Edubuntu CDs (total 3), will they ship it in the same package ?
[05:04] <HoboBen> orbin - thanks a million!
[05:04] <Borisblue> Catoptromancy_:  http://cl1p.net/error
[05:04] <Borisblue> I get this error msg
[05:04] <iNcrease> moustafa, sudo apt-get install vividas?
[05:04] <Borisblue> something to do with python
[05:04] <moustafa> Thank you
[05:04] <moustafa> yes man
[05:04] <[HW] Anonymous> or different 3 packages for each distro
[05:04] <Borisblue> profanephobia: what did you have to do to make it work?
[05:04] <ShawnRisk> sorry about that, I wondering why the CA server which is Canadian is down?
[05:05] <moustafa> not working sudo apt-get install vividas
[05:05] <osxdude|lap> [HW] Anonymous: it probably will ship in the same box if you order each one at the same time
[05:05] <profanephobia> borisblue: theres just a lot of packages you have to install but i really can t remember which ones
[05:05] <ShawnRisk> trying to do apt-get update yet the CA server fails
[05:06] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: i've really got to be getting to do some work now. the package manager is still trying to get packages from the cd, which isn't good. you can open /etc/apt/sources.list in a text editor 'sudo nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list' and comment out (add a '#' at the start of the line) any lines which look like they refer to a cd. then run 'sudo apt-get update'
[05:06] <moustafa> please , can nobody help me to know how to install sudo apt-get install vividas
[05:06] <[HW] Anonymous> osxdude|lap: a box or small package ?
[05:06] <orbin> ShawnRisk: use a mirror
[05:06] <Some_Person> Can you help me? I want Ubuntu's partition to take up the unallocated space: http://img292.imageshack.us/img292/3893/gpartednq1.png
[05:06] <howlingmadhowie> Quinton_: lots of luck, i gotta be going.
[05:06] <ShawnRisk> how?
[05:06] <[HW] Anonymous> i hope i won't get into tax thingy :\
[05:06] <osxdude|lap> [HW] Anonymous: small package probably
[05:06] <iNcrease> moustafa, dwnload it directly from there website?
[05:06] <[HW] Anonymous> umm...
[05:06] <AncientPC> How come I needed to install openssh-server to get ssh working on my laptop but not for any of my other PCs (all with default 7.04 install)?
[05:06] <DJ-_-> ok a new problem has started for me, when I compile something on the desktop it is hidden
[05:06] <[HW] Anonymous> osxdude|lap: thanks
[05:07] <osxdude|lap> [HW] Anonymous your welcome
[05:07] <moustafa> there is no copy there
[05:07] <BlackDesign> Hi
[05:07] <Catoptromancy_> Borisblue, doing this will make it work, not sure exactly which ones it needs, but I dont think they will hurt   http://cl1p.net/caseful/
[05:07] <paotzu> AncientPC: if you install the server, either turn it off or make sure it is locked down
[05:07] <ShawnRisk> orbin: How do I use a mirror?
[05:07] <Some_Person> Can anyone help me?
[05:07] <profanephobia> some_person: whats the prob
[05:07] <orbin> ShawnRisk: settings > repositories in synaptic.  or edit sources.list and replace with a repo from here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[05:08] <AncientPC> paotzu: I installed it so I could ssh into my laptop.  How would I lock it down?
[05:08] <Some_Person> profanephobia: I want Ubuntu's partition to take up the unallocated space: http://img292.imageshack.us/img292/3893/gpartednq1.png
[05:08] <DJ-_-> its like this even if i use "touch file" it is not shown on dekstop but is shown on ls -al
[05:08] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Hi all! Since upgrading to Feisty some time ago, my movieplayers wont work when embedded in firefox... rightclicking in the player and selecting "Open in movieplayer" opens and plays it in a separate window... but I dont want that... any solution available??
[05:08] <paotzu> AncientPC: use a non-standard port for ssh and call it with -p, don'y use passwords and instead use key authentication
[05:09] <profanephobia> some_person: whats on that ntfs partition
[05:09] <Some_Person> profanephobia: Windows XP, why?
[05:09] <n2diy> DJ-_-: your files go into /home/yourname, not the desktop.
[05:09] <profanephobia> some_person: if it was vista it might have caused mor eprobs
[05:09] <paotzu> AncientPC: check out /var/log/auth.log.0 on your laptop if it is connected to the internet
[05:10] <DJ-_-> n2diy: i said touch on desktop
[05:10] <Archon> has anyone here successfully installed apache2, mono2.0 and the respective mod_mono? the documentation given doesn't seem to work for me. i get "Service Temporarily Unavailable"
[05:10] <Some_Person> profamephobia: I used to have a Vista partition but I deleted it earlier today.
[05:10] <AncientPC> What's the difference between the .log and .log.0 files?
[05:10] <paotzu> AncientPC: .0 is a backup of .log with more entries
[05:10] <DJ-_-> any ideas? as this is causing problems for me
[05:10] <gnomefreak> AncientPC: log is newer iirc
[05:10] <AncientPC> paotzu: k thx
[05:11] <pawan> hi
[05:11] <profanephobia> some_person: ok so will gparted not let you create a new partition after you highlight the unallocated space?
[05:11] <_aib> does anyone know a place to get community help with mysql problems? it's practically impossible to get a question answered in #mysql
[05:11] <pawan> new screensaver for ubuntu required
[05:11] <paotzu> AncientPC: bots will try to brute force your ssh, install an irc bot on your computer to control virused windows computers, and all sorts of other weird stuff
[05:11] <Some_Person> profanephobia: I don't want a new partition
[05:11] <n2diy> DJ-_-: are they in /home/yourname/desktop.?
[05:11] <osxdude|lap> pawan: change the screensaver prefs
[05:11] <Some_Person> profanephobia: I want to make the ext3 partition bigger by using that unalocated space
[05:12] <louish> In windows we use AD, but I would like to know how (what) Linux uses to manages workstation and users.  I would like to switch all windows servers and workstations to linux...   Could someone point me in the right direction pls?
[05:12] <DJ-_-> n2diy: no
[05:12] <profanephobia> some_person: ok one sec
[05:12] <AncientPC> paotzu: How do I go about modifying my openssh-server config?  Also, why did I need to install the server to work for my laptop but I could ssh into other Ubuntu default installs just fine?
[05:12] <DJ-_-> n2diy: but cd Desktop/ and "ls -al" shows the file up
[05:12] <paotzu> AncientPC: I'm assuming openssh-server is not default install anymore
[05:13] <ChrisF-> I installed Pidgin using a .deb package and on startup, it crashes with a segmentation fault.  I purged it from my system and installed from source but I'm getting the same issue.  Anybody know how I can get this program up and running?
[05:13] <paotzu> AncientPC: because of all the use of ubuntu machines as zombie-pilots
[05:13] <osxdude|lap> /goshaper
[05:13] <osxdude|lap> oops
[05:13] <n2diy> DJ-_-: Desktop!? Linux is case sensitive, so desktop, and Desktop, are two different files. What is the original problem?
[05:14] <AncientPC> paotzu: I used the same CD (7.04) to install Ubuntu on 3 desktops / 1 laptop.  I could ssh into all desktops but not the laptop and needed to install openssh-server to get it to work.  That's what has me confused. :(
[05:14] <DJ-_-> n2diy: the default dekstop dir is known as "Desktop" lol
[05:14] <paotzu> AncientPC: weird... well, lock your ssh down in any case
[05:14] <Casperin> #ubuntu2
[05:14] <Casperin> >_<)

[05:15] <Some_Person> profanephobia: I am currently booted to my Ubuntu install. Should I boot to the Live CD?
[05:15] <AncientPC> paotzu: will do, thanks.
[05:15] <fatdigger> sexy
[05:15] <profanephobia> some_person: yes i thought thats where you were
[05:15] <gnomefreak> fatdigger: please stop
[05:15] <ryanakca> Hmm... what's the best virtualisation server for an Ubuntu comp with only 512mb ram?
[05:15] <n2diy> DJ-_-: Ok, I don't play with Desktop, good luck.
[05:16] <fatdigger> sorry, ok
[05:16] <DJ-_-> n2diy: dude u just wasted my time
[05:16] <Some_Person> profanephobia: ok, i'll boot to the live cd, just wait a sec
[05:16] <AncientPC> paotzu: Are people exploiting ssh by brute forcing the username and passwords?  How are they getting the usernames?
[05:16] <DJ-_-> anyone know why even if i use "touch file" it is not shown on dekstop but is shown on ls -al
[05:16] <profanephobia> ryanakca: i would recommend innotek virtualbox
[05:16] <orbin_> Aquilas: pastebin the command and error output: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[05:16] <ryanakca> profanephobia: ok, thanks :)

[05:19] <adub> is there a way to repair system in ubuntu using install disk
[05:20] <Aquilas> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31416/
[05:20] <Leolimas> I tryed 6.06 Server, now I will try a 6.06 alternate
[05:20] <osxdude|lap> adub: you can overwrite your current install and save your home folder somewhere else
[05:20] <osxdude|lap> adub: you will have to reinstall your apps, though
[05:21] <adub> osxdude|lap this stinks b/c in feisty i can not get monitor mode working on my atheros card but it works in 6.10 so now i get to redo my entire system
[05:21] <kersinc> #ubuntu-es
[05:21] <Leolimas> someone have a tip, to force a boot with low memory mode ?
[05:21] <adub> but in 6.10 it worked for like 3 days and then it quit working in it as well
[05:22] <adub> my network card just quit working all together osxdude|lap]
[05:22] <AncientPC> My laptop sometime crashes when resuming from suspend.  Sometimes I get no display.  Sometimes the keyboard doesn't work at all but I get the locked login screen.  Once I managed to get to the terminal (ctrl alt f1) and I saw a message about a hardware failure being spammed across my screen.  What can I do to troubleshoot this problem?
[05:22] <osxdude|lap> adub: reinstall nsidwrapper
[05:23] <adub> i have never used nsidwrapper
[05:23] <adub> osxdude|lap i heard ndiswrapper will not get monitor mode and packet injection working on atheros cards
[05:23] <genii> AncientPC: Remember what piece of hardware it was groaning about and replace it if possible.If it's a builtin piece of hardware you may be needing a new laptop tho
[05:23] <osxdude|lap> adub: I don't know about atheros cards so I can't help you
[05:24] <adub> i heard you had to use madwifi to get all that working well madwifi old
[05:24] <adub> k
[05:24] <sasch> hi all
[05:24] <adub> well from here i do not know what to do im afraid if i install 6.10 ubuntu then my network card will bork again
[05:24] <sasch> anyone can help me with MRTG ??
[05:24] <sasch> i have one problem
[05:24] <sasch> http://www.pastebin.ca/634611
[05:24] <AncientPC> genii: It didn't specify which hardware was failing (it's a laptop).  Do you know which log files I should be looking at?
[05:25] <n4LR> anyone know what port 23170 is for mostly?
[05:25] <umop-apisdn> does anyone have knowledge pertaining to setting up many:many NAT, using my ubuntu box as a router?
[05:26] <keito> how can I find an app that has been installed but there is no icon???
[05:26] <asisak> umop-apisdn: you need some advanced iptables tutorial, I guess.
[05:26] <asisak> keito: which app?
[05:26] <genii> AncientPC: /var/log/messages , also some others like /var/log/dmesg and /var/log/lastlog    mainly you want maybe the last 50 or so lines to look at. From command I usually do: tail <logname> it just gives the last bit not scroll the whole file or load it
[05:26] <Some_Person> profanephobia: are you there?
[05:26] <umop-apisdn> asisak: what's the difference between iptables and ipchains?
[05:26] <keito> asisak: synfig
[05:27] <Leolimas> Anyone can help me? I need install Ubuntu, in a P-MMX 233 with 48Mb Ram
[05:27] <asisak> umop-apisdn: linux kernel 2.2 / 2.4 and 2.6
[05:27] <keito> asisak: tried alt+F2 "synfig".. no luck
[05:27] <daniele_983> hello all i've a geforce+compiz-fusion and i've installed avant-window-navigator but i've a problem with launchers. When i pass on the mouse the text don't disappear. Any solution for it?
[05:27] <n2diy> umop-apisdn: no I don't, but I am very interested in your quest. Iptaples, is the replacement for ipchains.
[05:27] <Aquilas> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31416/
[05:27] <umop-apisdn> asisak: so, basically.. iptables is newer
[05:28] <Leolimas> Anyone can help me? I need install Ubuntu, in a P-MMX 233 with 48Mb Ram - It install all corret with low memory mode, but when it restart
[05:28] <Leolimas> it dont boot back
[05:28] <AncientPC> genii: Thanks, I'll make sure to do that the next time my laptop fails to resume from suspend.
[05:28] <genii> Leolimas: You need at least 64Mb usually. It can be done with 48 and a swap file setup to behave like the computer has more ram, but not recommended
[05:29] <asisak> paulm_: I guess you have a similar filesystem on the live cd as another filesystem. Network configuration happens in /etc/network/interfaces
[05:29] <Leolimas> genii I did a swap partition with 700Mb
[05:29] <Aquilas> for that small of a computer I would use Xubuntu
[05:29] <asisak> umop-apisdn: yes. I guess dapper+ has only iptables.
[05:29] <Some_Person> Can anyone help me?
[05:29] <keito> asisak: any ideas??
[05:29] <specker> Leolimas: I might try Damn Small Linux
[05:29] <asisak> keito: looking
[05:29] <specker> or Xubuntu
[05:29] <Leolimas> specker try what ?
[05:30] <genii> Leolimas: The thing is to get the computer to use the swap partition when you are running the installer so it finishes OK
[05:30] <keito> asisak: thank you
[05:30] <Some_Person> I want my ext3 (ubuntu) partition to take up the allocated space. Can anyone help me? http://img412.imageshack.us/img412/9562/gpartedhy5.png
[05:30] <asisak> keito: try /usr/bin/synfig after alt-f2
[05:30] <asisak> keito: if synfig does not work
[05:30] <paulm_> asisak: yes, it is similiar.  However the casper / initramfs overwrites my /etc/network/interfaces file at boot up.
[05:30] <genii> Leolimas: Yes, another linux distribution called Damn small Linux may be bettwr for you with that much ram
[05:30] <Leolimas> genii yes, it install all right, but dont boot to the real system
[05:30] <keito> asisak: will do
[05:30] <specker> Leolimas: www.damnsmalllinux.org/
[05:31] <Leolimas> genii its is debian based ?
[05:31] <Aquilas> does anyone know the commands to fix the apt-get in the Konsole
[05:31] <Leolimas> genii I have a project, that I need install 1 slack base, 1 fedora base, and 1 debian base ;)
[05:31] <AncientPC> Leolimas: For what it's worth, I've used both Xubuntu alternate install and Damn Small Linux on a very old laptop (200Mhz, 64MB RAM) and DSL was much batter.
[05:31] <asisak> Aquilas: sudo apt-get install -f
[05:31] <paulm_> asisak:  i believe all i need to do is pass the right boot parameters, however the syntax in 'man casper' doesn't seem to work.
[05:31] <Some_Person> Can anyone help me?
[05:32] <asisak> paulm_: okay, sorry then. I am not such a casper-expert.
[05:32] <AncientPC> Leolimas: There was a considerable amount of GUI lag even with Xubuntu.
[05:32] <daniele_983> someone know avant-window-navigator????
[05:32] <Leolimas> AncientPC I just need mode text
[05:32] <genii> Leolimas: Yes it's debian based
[05:32] <genii> work, aFK
[05:32] <keito> asisak: no luck although it is located there. i can see it
[05:32] <Some_Person> Can anyone help me?
[05:32] <asisak> Some_Person: right click on unallocated space and "new partiton"?
[05:33] <paulm_> asisak: thanks.  Perhaps the place to ask is on launchpad then?
[05:33] <Some_Person> asisak: I don't want a new partition
[05:33] <blithen> Major problems!
[05:33] <Some_Person> asisak: I want the ext3 partition to take up the unallocated space
[05:33] <paulm_> asisak: what I found on google is pretty minimal.
[05:33] <blithen> Everything is good up until it trys to create the ext3 file system in the partition it just freezes and that's it. I have to hard restart my computer. Right now I'm running of the live CD please help!! I've also checked the CD for defects twice. did the top command in the terminal and this is what came up
[05:33] <blithen> http://pastebin.com/m55ff80e3
[05:33] <asisak> Some_Person: oh, you want to resize partitons? I don't think it works.
[05:34] <sambagirl> is seveas still associated with ubuntu?
[05:34] <Some_Person> asisak: so its impossible?
[05:34] <Aquilas> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31418/    Thanks, did that and this is what I get.
[05:34] <keito> googeldesktop vs beagle.... which should i go for?
[05:34] <asisak> paulm_: you should ask for some livecd-experts then. It is also possible that it is easier to setup a DHCP server than creating a static IP livecd.
[05:34] <coolin86> SamePerson: i think you can resize
[05:34] <vandenoever> keito: strigi
[05:34] <macpo3> I just installed telnetd, which also installed openbsd-inetd. I tried "inetd restart" but can't telnet to <IP_ADDRESS> (connection refused) and telnet doesn't show under system / administration / services - any clues on what I still need to do?
[05:34] <dave_> hi folks
[05:34] <Some_Person> coolin86: i cant get the ext3 partition to take up the unallocated space http://img412.imageshack.us/img412/9562/gpartedhy5.png
[05:34] <Pici> Some_Person: yes. Hes just on a bit of a personal leave of absense.
[05:34] <asisak> Some_Person: I am not saying it is impossible, but I would backup everything, create new partiton layout and copy things back.
[05:35] <zerokill88> Ok, so im going to try to dual boot now after backing up my ubuntu system, and i know its easier when you partition your disk first so theres no confusion. i was wondering is there a livecd just for a partition program? i try using gparted on the livecds but i just get error of being mounted somewhere and im too lazy to figure it out if i can just boot ionto a livecd partitiong software and do it that way.
[05:35] <Pici> Some_Person: sorry, wrong name
[05:35] <Some_Person> Pici: how do i do it?
[05:35] <asisak> Some_Person: that is an easy solution.
[05:35] <keito> vandenoever: how come?
[05:35] <Pici> sambagirl: yes. Hes just on a bit of a personal leave of absense.
[05:35] <gordonjcp> macpo3: why telnet?
[05:35] <dave_> i have hosed my ubuntu - but kubuntu works fine, can someone point me to the startup configuration file that deals with metacity/compiz etc?
[05:35] <Some_Person> asisak: I am not deleting everything on my system
[05:35] <vandenoever> keito: it's fastest and smallest
[05:35] <qmf> hi there. i've mounted a share via nfs which has the rw flag on the server but it's only showing up as read only when i mount it. any ideas?
[05:35] <sambagirl> ok thank you pici
[05:35] <keito> asisak: could it be that I don't have the dependencies???
[05:35] <Aquilas> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31418/
[05:35] <macpo3> because it gives me a quick and easy way to fix file permissions problems when I'm upstairs editing php and web pages remotely
[05:36] <keito> vandenoever: better than beagle then?
[05:36] <coolin86> Same_Person: right click on the partition you want to grow and decrease the start point
[05:36] <asisak> keito: check if you have in fact installed synfig
[05:36] <coolin86> Same_Person: but make sure to back up critical stuff
[05:36] <blithen> Everything is good up until it trys to create the ext3 file system in the partition it just freezes and that's it. I have to hard restart my computer. Right now I'm running of the live CD please help!! I've also checked the CD for defects twice. did the top command in the terminal and this is what came up http://pastebin.com/m55ff80e3
[05:36] <keito> asisak: how?  it is in the /bin just looked
[05:36] <vandenoever> keito: yes, it is also part of kde4
[05:36] <asisak> coolin86: does this work for extended partitions as well?
[05:36] <macpo3> the box is behind a router that's only letting http through, so the telnet access will only be possible from the lan, so security is not a massive issue
[05:36] <Some_Person> coolin86: the extended partition won't resize, it has a lock
[05:36] <vandenoever> keito: and could be used with gnome too (no gui deps)
[05:37] <paulm_> asisak:  where does one find livecd experts?
[05:37] <asisak> keito: if it is there it should run... that is I have no idea.
[05:37] <keito> vandenoever: sweet I'm using gnome (have both but gnome suits me better for now)
[05:37] <coolin86> Same_Person: I missed the extended part.  I have never done that.  I think asisak may have the only solution. Sorry
[05:37] <keito> asisak: cheers no worries
[05:37] <asisak> paulm_: maybe on #ubuntu-devel after the developent team meeting is over
[05:37] <Aquilas> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31418/
[05:38] <Some_Person> asisak: Is there no way to reisize an extended partition?
[05:38] <vandenoever> keito: best feature of strigi is that it does streamed analysis which means it can also index e.g files in archives or emails
[05:38] <Davy_Jones> asisak: google SLAX
[05:38] <vandenoever> no matter how deeply nested
[05:38] <macpo3> so - any ideas how I get telnet running with openbsd-inetd ...... do I need to find a config file for inetd somewhere?
[05:38] <asisak> Davy_Jones: why?
[05:38] <qmf> strange, my files seems to be read write on this share, but the folders are read only. what's up with that?
[05:38] <vandenoever> asisak: google desktop is not free software
[05:38] <Davy_Jones> asisak: it's a live distribution that lets you customize what you wanna have inside
[05:38] <asisak> vandenoever: what is with google desktop?
[05:39] <AngryElf_> Does anyone know why Crtl+[1-9]  doesn't work in Ubuntu's version of Firefox?
[05:39] <vandenoever> asisak: it is closed source -> bad
[05:39] <Some_Person> asisak: nevermind, i got it, i had to do "swapoff" to the swap partition
[05:39] <asisak> Davy_Jones: oh, maybe you mean this for paulm_
[05:39] <kbrosnan> AngryElf_: i belive that it conflicts with gnome shortcuts
[05:39] <asisak> vandenoever: did I recommend it to someone?
[05:39] <Aquilas> can anyone help me with this problem? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31418/
[05:39] <asisak> vandenoever: I really don't understand :)
[05:40] <Davy_Jones> asisak: yeah.. sorry, just got out of bed.. don't know what i'm doing
[05:40] <VSpike> Anyone know if strigi can index maildir++ ?
[05:40] <VSpike> Or MS Word docs?
[05:40] <AngryElf_> kbrosnan: I just found it's Alt+# instead...nvm :)
[05:40] <kbrosnan> AngryElf_: ahh yes
[05:40] <vandenoever> VSpike: you mean a dir with 1 file per mail? it can and also indexes all attachments
[05:41] <lashmoov2> anyone using a 24" wide monitor
[05:41] <Flodo> So, how is everyone?
[05:42] <Davy_Jones> !hi|Flodo
[05:42] <ubotu> Flodo: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:42] <Some_Person> asisak: now i'm stuck with this: http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/9576/gp2gg6.png
[05:42] <zerokill88> im going to partition my disk, to put windows on.once i do i know my MBR will be overwritin. how do i save ubuntu and get it to dual boot?
[05:42] <VSpike> vandenoever: yep, and nested folders.  Which usually start with a "."
[05:42] <Flodo> Hi and thanks =)
[05:42] <vandenoever> VSpike: check
[05:42] <michaelfavia> anyoen know how to delete an entire folder element in gconf? id liek to reset compiz app folder settings as they are corrupted.
[05:43] <n2diy> mbr | zerokill88
[05:43] <ari_stress> hello guys, i wrote an howto about howto setup lcd projector on notebook with feisty. it's at http://linux2.arinet.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=155&Itemid=35 hopefully it helps :)
[05:43] <michaelfavia> thinking about just switching to a flat file because gconf-edit wont let me...
[05:43] <VSpike> vandenoever: most of them seem to be able to do maildir but not maildir++.  Beagle ignores anything starting with a "."
[05:43] <asisak> Some_Person: you should 1. backup, 2. resize extended partition, 3. pray, 4. resize ext3 partition, 5. pray
[05:43] <VSpike> vandenoever: maybe i should try it.  What about msword ... any idea?
[05:43] <n2diy> grub | zerokill88
[05:43] <vandenoever> VSpike: ah, i see, strigi does that by default too, but you can configure it
[05:43] <AngryElf_> Which download do I want for my dual-Xeon PC?...standard?
[05:43] <vandenoever> msword is also supported natively
[05:43] <Some_Person> asisak: steps 1 and 2 are done, but it wont let me resize the ext3, and i dont believe in god btw
[05:44] <Aquilas> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31418/
[05:44] <VSpike> VSpike: currently got gdl installed but never ever use it because its so lame.  just haven't had the energy to remove it
[05:44] <VSpike> vandenoever: ^
[05:44] <asisak> Some_Person: sorry, no more idea
[05:44] <zerokill88> n2diy do i want to perserve or overwrite windows bootloader?
[05:44] <VSpike> vandenoever: how can you configure it?  Can you use wildcards?
[05:44] <vandenoever> VSpike: you mean gds?
[05:44] <vandenoever> VSpike: yes wildcards like rsync
[05:44] <VSpike> vandenoever: yeah google desktop linux
[05:44] <n2diy> windows | zerokill88
[05:45] <vandenoever> VSpike: they have a distro?
[05:45] <Some_Person> Can anyone help me? I want the ext3 partition to take up the unallocated space: http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/9576/gp2gg6.png
[05:45] <n2diy> :/
[05:45] <VSpike> vandenoever: because I have a lot of mail folders :) And adding them to an include list one at a time is not an option :)
[05:45] <lostMyMarbles> Is there any program on linux that will open and allow me to edit my old Adobe .ai files?
[05:45] <VSpike> vandenoever: sorry .. probably bad terminology on my part. i just mean the desktop search tool for linux
[05:46] <n2diy> zerokill88, windows will overwrite linux, but i can't find the command to help you.
[05:46] <vandenoever> VSpike: ok
[05:46] <VSpike> vandenoever: I noticed they refer to it internally as gdl
[05:46] <anzan> lostMyMarbles, try Xara Xtreme for .ai files.
[05:46] <vandenoever> VSpike: lets hope they dont make a distro
[05:46] <Casperin> newbie q: how do I make certain files (say .mp3) open with a specific program by default?
[05:46] <Some_Person> Can anyone help me? I want the ext3 partition to take up the unallocated space: http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/9576/gp2gg6.png
[05:46] <lostMyMarbles> Thanks
[05:46] <lostMyMarbles> I will
[05:46] <umop-apisdn> Some_Person: is there an issue with using gparted?
[05:46] <lostMyMarbles> I was hoping that there was a GNU way to do it though
[05:47] <Some_Person> umop-apisdn: it wont let me resize the ext3 partition to use the unallocated space
[05:47] <Aquilas> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31418/
[05:47] <VSpike> vandenoever: it installs some god-awful update script in your cron.hourly - totally unnecessary on an apt based system - which then dumps script output to your root email every tyime it runs
[05:47] <umop-apisdn> Some_Person: which unallocated space?
[05:47] <vandenoever> VSpike: and it's closed source stuff from the internet search monopoly
[05:48] <Some_Person> umop-apisdn: the only one i have: http://img409.imageshack.us/img409/9576/gp2gg6.png
[05:48] <umop-apisdn> ah, i see... your ext3 partition is after the unallocated space
[05:48] <Some_Person> umop-apisdn: correct
[05:48] <VSpike> vandenoever: true.  If it worked well, I could live with that until an open source alternative that worked for me was available
[05:48] <umop-apisdn> if it were before, you could probably make it work
[05:48] <VSpike> vandenoever: will try strigi anyways
[05:49] <Some_Person> umop-apisdn: what can i do about it?
[05:49] <umop-apisdn> well, right offhand, i would be inclined to say "nothing"
[05:49] <VSpike> Still got a lot of docs in msword format so really need to index those too, although new ones are ooxml
[05:49] <Aquilas> someone please help me... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/31418/
[05:50] <umop-apisdn> Some_Person: if you don't want to buy another drive, and you don't want to lose the install you have, then i would suggest purchasing a commercial drive partitioning software, like partition magic... except i don't know if partition magic is still around
[05:50] <Some_Person> umop-apisdn: so i'm stuck with less than half a gig of free space on my ext3 partition?
[05:50] <Some_Person> umop-apisdn: I am not buying another drive
[05:50] <Some_Person> umop-apisdn: i have partition magic on windows
[05:51] <umop-apisdn> Some_Person: then the only thing i can suggest is blowing away your install, and being more careful when you reinstall next time :)
[05:51] <Some_Person> umop-apisdn: should i try that?
[05:51] <umop-apisdn> Some_Person: aha! yes, that may do the trick
[05:51] <Some_Person> umop-apisdn: ok, i'll try partition magic
[05:51] <Some_Person> bye
[05:51] <umop-apisdn> i hope he doesn't fsck his partitions up too badly
[05:53] <corpulunt> why apt-get install samba did not install the /etc/init.d scripts for samba?

[05:54] <albreche> hi is there a deb for  wmd driver ?
[05:55] <lostMyMarbles> I just tried the Xaralx and it does not support .ai files. I know that GIMP will open them but will convert them to raster. Any other suggestions? I also know that Inkscape (my prog of choice) won't open an .ai file either.
[05:55] <ShawnRisk> You should add the contents of `/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4 to 'aclocal.m4'. Which aclocal.m4 file do I add it to or make a new file?
[05:55] <keito> asisak: I'm a dumb@$$. it was console only. just installed the gui frontend and all is gravy.  thanks anyway
[05:56] <mabus> I installed ubuntu server, then installed fluxbox from source but I'm having troubles. when I start gdm and login using fluxbox session, it tells me that it could not find an exec line in the fluxbox file. However, in several different places I have a config file with the line exec startfluxbox, and have also tried exchanging it with exec fluxbox in each file. which file am I missing do you think? any ideas?
[05:56] <bwisdom> ok, Ill throw this one out there. When I try and use the ./configure command to install something it gives me this about the compiler: "checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables"
[05:56] <malocite> yaaay got my remote working through lirc :)
[05:56] <anzan> lostMyMarbles, sorry re Xara. Worked for me. Though I've only opened a few files with it that I needed to get to.
[05:56] <mabus> bwisdom: have you installed build-essential?

[05:57] <konam> someone can tell me what happens if i disable the filesystem check in the boot?
[05:57] <mabus> konam: it will cease to check the filesystem upon booting? :P
[05:57] <dyrne> konam: it wont check the other non / file systems i think. which isnt really a big deal
[05:57] <mabus> Meaning if there's any errors on it, you won't know when you restart the computer.
[05:57] <sexcopte1> i have a slightly strange problem, but not a serious one. Just installed Feisty and when it boots up, it goes from grub menu to a blank screen for a while, then to the login... any ideas why the splash screen thing isn't showing?
[05:58] <corpulunt> why apt-get install samba did not install the /etc/init.d scripts for samba?
[05:58] <mabus> sexcopte1: is "quiet" one of the boot options?
[05:58] <sexcopte1> mabus: where would i find that?

What files do I need to make backups of so that I can restore them if I skrew up again without having to reinstall ubuntu again
[06:00] <corpulunt> Hello
[06:00] <corpulunt> clear
[06:00] <corpulunt> why apt-get install samba did not install the /etc/init.d scripts for samba?
[06:00] <Some_Person> Partition Magic cant do it either
[06:00] <lashmoov2> malocite: learn how to use nano
[06:01] <malocite> the text editor?
[06:01] <lashmoov2> malocite: that will allow you to edit your xorg.conf from prompt
[06:01] <malocite> right
[06:01] <mabus> malocite: as far as X goes, you really just need to back up /etc/X11/xorg.con
[06:01] <genii> corpulent They should be named smdb and possibly also nmbd not sambad
[06:01] <genii> smbd and nmbd rather
[06:01] <DjViper> malocite: did you backup your xorg conf ?
[06:01] <sexcopte1> mabus: there's no grub.conf file, but in the menu.lst file, the relevant entry does have a line with quiet. is it safe to just delete it?
[06:01] <konam> dyrne so i can disable it and nothing bad would happen with time?
[06:02] <malocite> im just doing that now
[06:02] <mabus> sexcopte1: delete the line in menu.lst? no, but you can delete that option
[06:02] <malocite> just did it
[06:02] <sexcopte1> mabus: well, it is its own line, the line just says quiet, i'll pastebin it to make it clear
[06:03] <malocite> well thats done, now to figure out the ati drivers :)
[06:03] <B-rabbit> hi everyone,has anyone herd of the OS called BackTrack...it's a linux distro...which i am downloading right now. i was just wondering if you run a linux distrobution(in this case "backtrack") on top of ubuntu using vmware?
[06:03] <dyrne> konam: not any more bad than would happen normally. the only diff is that you might have to run fsck yourself if something became corrupt and you started having problems. its a diff between ubuntu doing it for you or you doing it

[06:10] <Pici> Davy_Jones: I have no idea what that means.
[06:10] <bee2643> erestar, i am running several PHP servers in ubuntu
[06:10] <liquiddoom> erestar: I guess it would be able to, but I'm not sure
[06:11] <erestar> I have everything enabled in php.ini that I should need, and I can fopen("http://somethinglocal") but anytime I try to use http for something external it doesn't work
[06:11] <erestar> And I have absolutely no idea why
[06:11] <corpulunt> yo
[06:12] <corpulunt> i just apt-get samba and there is no init.d script on /etc/init.d for it.
[06:12] <corpulunt> what could be wrong?
[06:12] <liquiddoom> erestar: Do you mean local as in the same IP, or the same domain?
[06:12] <erestar> local as in something served by the same computer that PHP is running on
[06:13] <erestar> You can test it with one line:

[06:14] <erestar> Any suggestions on what to check? I've enabled the wrapper and spoofed the user_agent to a mozilla browser string
[06:14] <erestar> Not sure what else to check
[06:15] <liquiddoom> erestar: Here it is
[06:15] <kitche> ryanakca: you most likely need openldap
[06:15] <corpulunt> i just apt-get samba and there is no init.d script on /etc/init.d for it.
[06:15] <corpulunt> what could be wrong?
[06:15] <axisys> I can access a remote windows folder thru Places -> Connect to Server.. how do I mount/map it to a local folder?
[06:15] <liquiddoom> erestar: allow_url_open in php.ini controls it, it seems
[06:15] <rycuda> I'm trying to use PAM ldap to achieve this. I can run succesful queries against AD using ldap tools. Watching the traffic using ethereal shows succesful results being returned by the server. However I always get an unknown users error when trying to auth against an account.
[06:15] <erestar> liquiddoom: You mean allow_url_fopen?
[06:16] <sipior> corpulunt: might simply be called something else. have you looked through the inventory of installed files?
[06:16] <erestar> liquiddoom: Cause that is enabled
[06:16] <liquiddoom> erestar: I guess so, I might be looking at an old document
[06:16] <Aquilas> Pici: Thanks that worked for me...
[06:16] <rycuda> Does anyone have any thoughts as to what I might be doing wrong?
[06:16] <erestar> liquiddoom: Eh, I'll put it in there and see what happens ;)
[06:16] <esteem> does anyone know how I am able to fully backup my compact flash card, with DD so that, both of the partitions that are contained on it, - are captured upon a standard DD image extractor?

[06:18] <max0> hi how do I change the default programs to file ext's eg when i click a *.doc file i want to change the program which opens it
[06:19] <Some_Person> Can anyone help me?
[06:19] <liquiddoom> !ask | Some_Person
[06:19] <ubotu> Some_Person: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:20] <kitche> ryanakca: so the active directory setup is for logon and file sharing correct?
[06:20] <Some_Person> this is my drive: [ntfs] [extended[unallocated] [ext3] [swap] ]  now how do i make the ext3 take up the unallocated space?
[06:20] <vocx> max0, with a right click you change that in properties
[06:20] <lmosher> No one here has any experience with suspend? Seriously?
[06:20] <erestar> liquiddoom: Would you mind testing to see if you're experiencing a similar issue?
[06:21] <erestar> I've run into this problem on a few ubuntu machines
[06:21] <liquiddoom> erestar: My server is down. HARD. sorry, apache exploded and I'm still trying to clean up after it
[06:21] <vocx> lmosher, susend and hibernate are tricky features. It worked for me on 6.06 but it doesn't anymore since 6.10 so I live with it
[06:21] <erestar> liquiddoom: Hehe, that stinks ;)
[06:21] <sipior> Some_Person: if there's enough room, move the ext3 partition to the beginning of the unallocated section, then grow the partition as desired
[06:21] <erestar> liquiddoom: I'm gunna try in #php
[06:21] <liquiddoom> erestar: yeah, apache doesn't wanna work right again, even if I run tasksel install lamp-server
[06:21] <Some_Person> sipior: GParted and Partition Magic won't let me
[06:22] <sipior> Some_Person: if the unallocated section is smaller than the ext3 partition, things won't work so well
[06:22] <Some_Person> sipior: the unallocated section is larger than the ext3 partition
[06:22] <kitche> ryanakca: this is the only way that I know that works http://www.nuxified.org/topic/managing_linux_through_windows_active_directory_0

[06:23] <Some_Person> Anlar: what will tune2fs do?
[06:23] <sipior> Some_Person: strange, then you should be able to move them. you're not running gparted on a mounted disk, are you?
[06:23] <Some_Person> sipior: no
[06:23] <supremedialect> hi all any one familiar with digiop network cameras?
[06:23] <ryanakca> kitche: umm. I never asked a question...

[06:24] <Some_Person> sipior: the ubuntu live cd
[06:24] <kitche> rycuda this is the only way that I know that works http://www.nuxified.org/topic/managing_linux_through_windows_active_directory_0
[06:24] <sipior> Some_Person: okay, that's fine. does it give an error when it fails?
[06:24] <Some_Person> sipior: it just doesnt let me, no error
[06:24] <kitche> rycuda: at least without much fuss
[06:25] <Some_Person> sipior: i'm on windows right now (cuz i was told here to try partition magic), shall i switch to the ubuntu live cd?
[06:25] <sipior> Some_Person: wait, did it fail under both partition magic and gparted?
[06:25] <konam_> dyrne
[06:25] <Some_Person> sipior: neither one gives the option
[06:26] <rycuda> Thanks kitche I'll have a read.
[06:26] <Some_Person> sipior: GParted wont let me move the partition (it doesnt give the option), and Resize/Move is greyed out in Partition Magic
[06:26] <konam_> dyrne how do i disable the filesystem check?
[06:26] <kitche> rycuda: it even uses pam
[06:27] <bwisdom> ok, well right now I have another problem. "You must have the GLib 2.0 development headers installed to build." How do I fix this?
[06:27] <sipior> Some_Person: simplest option, frankly, would be to get a second disk, backup all partitions to that, repartition the old disk, and restore.
[06:27] <ebp> how can i show user's in xchat?
[06:27] <Some_Person> sipior: no
[06:27] <sipior> Some_Person: no?
[06:27] <Maximo> hi
[06:27] <Some_Person> sipior: i do not have another disk, and i refuse to buy one
[06:27] <bwisdom> ebp: there is a lil thing at the bottome left of the window that says users. click it and it will show them
[06:28] <Maximo> alquien habla espanol aqui..?
[06:28] <sipior> Some_Person: well, best of luck then
[06:28] <Some_Person> Anlar: you mentioned tune2fs, what is that then?
[06:29] <Cure> For some reason, I am unable to partition my hard drive
[06:29] <Anlar> Some_Person: first parted, I thought you had done that.. you can just maximize the previous partition to encompass that non-used as well.. then that -j fixes the file system to match that partition size
[06:29] <Cure> I tried Partition Magic, and then GParted, and neither work
[06:30] <lmosher> Some_Person, Basically you can't do this the way you want. It's very difficult to grow a partition forward. I had the same setup as you, and wanted to do something similar. I ended up deleting the NTFS partition, shrinking the ext3 partition as small as I could, COPYING it forward, then deleting the old ex3, growing the ext3, building the NTFS and reinstalling windows.
[06:30] <Some_Person> Anlar: GParted won't let me resize the partition to use the unallocated space before it
[06:30] <Maximo> hi i neeyou repar my disk hard
[06:30] <Maximo> help please
[06:30] <stuart-> ah crap, how can i use wine to install multi cd games
[06:30] <sipior> you can't move the beginning of an ext2/3 partition, sadly
[06:30] <stuart-> i'm done with the 1st disc but it doesn't let me unmount ot continue with 2nd disk
[06:31] <lmosher> Some_Person, If the unallocated space is smaller than the ext3, you should be able to copy it (that wasn't possible when I did it, hence deleting the NTFS partition)
[06:31] <Some_Person> sipior: so i'm forced to reinstall... :(
[06:31] <sipior> Some_Person: that's one option
[06:31] <sipior> stuart-: rip the discs to cd images
[06:31] <Anlar> Some_Person: I did not talk about GParted
[06:31] <lmosher> Some_Person, You read me? You can copy if you make room (I used GParted)
[06:31] <sexcopte1> mabus: well, i rebooted, and this time i saw a load of text run by, and *then* a blank screen until login :p so i guess it could be video card driver related. perhaps more hassle that it's worth...
[06:31] <Some_Person> lmosher: the unallocated space is larger than the ext3
[06:32] <stuart-> sipior, what next
[06:32] <lmosher> Some_Person, Then you should be able to copy your ext3 and delete the old one
[06:32] <juangar> juan_73_1
[06:32] <Some_Person> lmosher: let me switch to ubuntu livecd, just wait a sec
[06:32] <lmosher> Some_Person, I did this in gparted
[06:32] <juangar> juan_73_1hotamil.com
[06:32] <sipior> stuart-: you can mount the images as you like, just keep a spaer terminal handy
[06:32] <csmiga> I just loaded Ubuntu 7.04 on a SPARC box and WOW!  This is great!  The apt repository is huge and it runs so well.
[06:33] <lmosher> oh but you can't do it w/ windows mounted :)
[06:33] <Some_Person> lmosher: hence why i'm switching over, be back soon, bye
[06:33] <mabus> sexcopte1: yep, sounds like whatever the console uses to show stuff isn't working. it will probably look better if you put quiet back on, but yeah, it wouldn't be worth much trouble unless it means you can't use any of the tty screens at all
[06:33] <lmosher> oh wait.. I did it in partition magic. eh. whatever it should work.
[06:33] <New2Ubuntu> damn...
[06:34] <juangar> lamasmaladecaihotmail.com
[06:34] <AnotherDamnedDJ> there ... that one ALWAYS works...  ;)
[06:34] <sexcopte1> mabus: ok. well thanks for your help anyway!
[06:34] <mabus> sexcopte1: no problem
[06:34] <Cure> I don't understand why is refuses to resize my NTFS partition
[06:35] <Cure> *it
[06:35] <konam> someone knows how to disable the filesystem check in the boot time?
[06:35] <AnotherDamnedDJ> Anyone know how to set up ircd to give channel ops to the 1st person in channel?
[06:35] <AnotherDamnedDJ> mine doesn't seem to want to do that
[06:36] <stuart-> sipior, eh i didn't know images were mountable. so i just mount filename.iso ?
[06:37] <stuart-> mount filename.iso /target/dir ?
[06:37] <sipior> stuart-: you'll want the loop option to mount, syntax can be found in the mount man page
[06:37] <Twofclubs> i was wondering how to register my name?
[06:37] <Twofclubs> for #ubuntu
[06:38] <kitche> !register | Twofclubs
[06:38] <ubotu> Twofclubs: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[06:38] <genii> !register | Twofclubs
[06:38] <Twofclubs> !register | Twofclubs
[06:38] <kitche> genii: late :)
[06:39] <stuart-> sipior, kay thanks.
[06:39] <kitche> Twofclubs: click the linka nd it tells you how to register
[06:39] <Some_Person> lmosher: ok, i'm back, now how do i do that copy thing
[06:39] <Twofclubs> thank you
[06:39] <sipior> stuart-: should be something like mount imagename /mnt/cdrom -o loop=/dev/loop
[06:39] <genii> kitche Yup :) Well, if i wasn't holding a coffee at same time mighta been a bit faster LOL
[06:41] <Davy_Jones> can i "upgrade" feisty to ubuntustudio?
[06:41] <Anlar> konam: edit the /etc/fstab, look at the numbers at right
[06:42] <stuart-> sipior, cool. thanks again.
[06:43] <newbie> hello all
[06:44] <profanephobia> wow no questions
[06:44] <AntonSmari> I have one
[06:44] <profanephobia> ask away
[06:45] <AntonSmari> my computer freezes while installing ubuntu
[06:45] <ikonia> at what point
[06:45] <AntonSmari> also if it manages to install it freezes when updating
[06:45] <ikonia> is it the same point every time
[06:45] <ikonia> how many times have you tried it
[06:45] <AntonSmari> and sometimes just when booting onto the live cd
[06:45] <ikonia> why are you trying to update if you have not installed the system
[06:45] <profanephobia> whats your hardware specs
[06:45] <AntonSmari> when it manages to install that was long time ago
[06:45] <AntonSmari> like 2 days or so...
[06:46] <jbu311> can someone tell me how to unblock a port in ubuntu?
[06:46] <jbu311> i cant find the place to
[06:46] <rahimamir786> hi
[06:46] <AntonSmari> 4 x 1024MB 800MHz RAM pieces...
[06:46] <AntonSmari> 8800GTX
[06:46] <SirSherlock> whats a good terminal emulator besides xterm?
[06:46] <AntonSmari> 6600 Core 2 Duo
[06:47] <rahimamir786> what is a good wine emulator
[06:47] <SirSherlock> wine is not an emulator =P
[06:47] <sipior> jbu311: ports should be unblocked by default. which port do you need?
[06:47] <SirSherlock> WINE
[06:47] <rahimamir786> I mean what is a good windows emulator...
[06:47] <jbu311> Sipingal, 8888
[06:47] <profanephobia> antonsmari: maybe you have a bad stick of RAM...can you install any other distro or OS
[06:47] <kitche> ok I just seen a screwup with a package
[06:47] <alieas> Hi, I'm trying to use a PS2 -> USB adapter with ZSNES.  The joystick is identified with "dmesg", and you can grab input with "cat /dev/input/js0".  However, if you hold down a button, its choppy or stutters, as in a button release every 1 second.   Has anyone known this to happen before?
[06:47] <profanephobia> wine
[06:48] <SirSherlock> rahimamir786: id go with vmware
[06:48] <AntonSmari> yes I could install windows vista and windows xp without a problem
[06:48] <jbu311> Sipingal, all of them should be unblocked by default?
[06:48] <SirSherlock> check the ubuntu forums on how to setup
[06:48] <stuart-> how do i change between workspaces?
[06:48] <rahimamir786> is it free
[06:48] <ninix> hi, is  "Option "no_dri" "no"" in my xorg.conf disable DRI ?
[06:48] <stuart-> as in shortcut
[06:48] <alieas> Hi, I'm trying to use a PS2 -> USB adapter with ZSNES.  The joystick is identified with "dmesg", and you can grab input with "cat /dev/input/js0".  However, if you hold down a button, its choppy or stutters, as in a button release every 1 second.   Has anyone known this to happen before?
[06:48] <sipior> jbu311: sure it's not blocked by your modem?
[06:48] <JunkYard> fools jockin my nick. :/
[06:48] <AntonSmari> never even froze but I had sometimes problem running stuff, might be a bad piece of ram
[06:48] <kitche> Does anyone know why they compiled OpenVPN without SSL support what is the point of having it installed then?
[06:48] <jbu311> sipior, i'm not sure
[06:48] <rahimamir786> exit
[06:48] <newbie> Will Ubuntu run on 733Mhz@256Mb@4Gb@Intel 82810?
[06:49] <profanephobia> antonsamri: remove all but one stick and go from there to test your RAM
[06:49] <jbu311> sipior, crap i think i've been talking to the wrong person instead of u
[06:49] <profanephobia> newbie: yes
[06:49] <genii> newbie Yes
[06:49] <newbie> it will be very slow?
[06:49] <sipior> jbu311: tab-complete is a dangerous friend :)
[06:49] <fedora-ds> does anyone here have expirience with ldap + samba + qmail ??? that could give me a hand?
[06:49] <AntonSmari> so what do you suggest if I have a bad block of ram}
[06:49] <profanephobia> newbie: you can configure for best speed
[06:50] <profanephobia> if you have bad RAm it wil need to be replaced, also check your ubuntu cd/image
[06:50] <mzaza> What is the diffrence between ubuntu (gusty) and gubuntu?
[06:50] <kitche> mzaza: you mean gobuntu
[06:50] <newbie> profanephobia: can I use fvwm or enlightenment >
[06:50] <coopster> gobotu?
[06:50] <mzaza> kitche: oh, ya. sry
[06:50] <kitche> mzaza: gobuntu is all free software
[06:50] <AntonSmari> I have 2 ubuntu cd's both unable to install
[06:50] <profanephobia> newbie: i wouldnt recommend enlightenment and sorry but ive never used the other
[06:51] <Leolimas> AntonSmari make a md5 check
[06:51] <kitche> mzaza: so it won't be able to install nvidia drivers and such most likely
[06:51] <profanephobia> newbie: but gnome should work fine
[06:51] <AntonSmari> how do I do that}
[06:51] <newbie> profanephobia: really?
[06:51] <mzaza> kitche: ok, thanks.
[06:51] <kitche> mzaza: unless you do it by hand of course
[06:51] <newbie> profanephobia: I am afraid of only 256 Mb
[06:51] <bz0b> just checking if their are any vulnerabilites in feisty kernel 2.6.20-16 'cause my boss needs me to get into one of our ex-employees systems
[06:51] <AntonSmari> how do I do a md5 check?
[06:52] <bz0b> i have user access but i need to escalate privlidges
[06:52] <rocky> i'm looking to buy some new wireless N stuff... what's the most hassle-free laptop wifi card (N) i can get for ubuntu/fiesty ?
[06:52] <Leolimas> profanephobia: hey man, what version did u installed at ur old notebook ?
[06:52] <profanephobia> newbie: do you have to have a GUI otherwise i would just use text based
[06:52] <vandenoever> AntonSmari: md5sum $file
[06:52] <Agrajag> bz0b: ...why don't you simply boot from a CD?
[06:52] <AntonSmari> on the image file}
[06:52] <profanephobia> leolimas: do you mean what version of ubuntu
[06:52] <Leolimas> profanephobia yes man
[06:52] <obtix> say i output to a file (ie: ls -l >>~/test/test.txt) and i want to run a second command that is similar to append to the test.txt file. how would i do this?
[06:53] <bz0b> Agrajag: if i boot from cd, can i change the root
[06:53] <fedora-ds> does anyone here have expirience with ldap + samba + qmail ??? that could give me a hand?
[06:53] <Agrajag> bz0b: that's what chroot is for
[06:53] <malocite> I am in Canada and it keeps hanging when I try to download pacakges
[06:53] <newbie> profanephobia: just use console?
[06:53] <profanephobia> sorry i got confused... i was running edgy eft
[06:53] <eubey> what is the current kernel for ubuntu right now?
[06:53] <Leolimas> profanephobia I will try install 6.0
[06:53] <Leolimas> profanephobia alternate CD
[06:53] <coopster> obtix, if you use >, it will overwrite the file, but if you use >>, it will always append, no matter what command it is
[06:53] <eubey> beter question, what is the kernel that is included with the feisty install cd?
[06:53] <Some_Person> is there no way at all to add free space to the beginning of an ext3 partition?
[06:53] <profanephobia> the alternate cd is text based so prolly would be best
[06:54] <sipior> eubey: 2.6.20, iirc
[06:54] <bz0b> Agrajag: so explain what would i do boot into live cd, open terminal and
[06:54] <obtix> coopster: thank you!
[06:54] <Some_Person> if not i'll have to reinstall
[06:54] <AntonSmari> I am afraid I formated the disk containing the image file...
[06:54] <coopster> obtix, no problem
[06:54] <Hibame> Anyone know a way to remove ubuntu besiedes just installing another os or using gparted
[06:54] <bz0b> aagrajag: i have user access because he saved it to boot up without pass but how would i get his user pass with being logged in, is it possible
[06:54] <Agrajag> bz0b: sudo chroot </media/root/filesystem> /bin/bash
[06:54] <profanephobia> newbie: yeah just a console but you shouldnt have to much trouble running with 256
[06:54] <Some_Person> i want to avoid reinstalling
[06:54] <coopster> Hibame, format the partition?
[06:55] <newbie> okay thx
[06:55] <Agrajag> bz0b: where that bit in <> is whereever your new root is
[06:55] <Some_Person> but i need more space on my ext3, and my unallocated space is located before the ext3
[06:55] <Hibame> coopster I need to format it so I can install another os on it
[06:55] <coopster> Hibame, the other OS install process should do that for you
[06:55] <Agrajag> bz0b: you should then have a root shell, in the installed system, and can run passwd on his account
[06:55] <profanephobia> Hibame: what Os do you plan on installing
[06:55] <AntonSmari> should I try booting the cd with only 1 x 1024 block of RAM?
[06:55] <sipior> Some_Person: the beginning of an ext3 partition is fixed; so, unless you can copy it (and i
[06:56] <bz0b> it asks for current pass
[06:56] <Davy_Jones> can i tell synaptic to view all installed packages.. i wanna free some disk space
[06:56] <profanephobia> antonsmari:i would
[06:56] <Hibame> coopster it doesnt, after installing ubuntu server NO other os sees the drives not even ubuntu client
[06:56] <coopster> AntonSmari, sure, i've booted it with 256mb of ram
[06:56] <Agrajag> bz0b: there is no password on the liveCD, just hit enter
[06:56] <sipior> Some_Person: and i'm guessing gparted didn't let you) you're stuck with a reinstall, i'm afraid
[06:56] <Some_Person> FUCK
[06:56] <Hibame> I want windows server 2003 profanephobia
[06:56] <AntonSmari> thanks, il try that and then let you guys know ty for your help :)
[06:56] <ikonia> Some_Person: there is no need for that language
[06:56] <bz0b> agrajag: its ubuntu its defaulted to sudo root account is locked
[06:56] <Agrajag> !ohmy
[06:56] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:56] <ttt-> hi, i can ping my router ip, but i cant access the network beyond that. what could be the problem?
[06:56] <Agrajag> bz0b: on the liveCD?
[06:57] <profanephobia> Hibame: easiest way would prolly be to download DOS and format it that way if you dont want to use gparted
[06:57] <bz0b> agrajag: on installed version, is it possible without livecd
[06:57] <Agrajag> I said, run "sudo chroot </media/root/filesystem> /bin/bash"
[06:57] <coopster> ttt-, is your router set as the gateway for your computer?
[06:57] <Agrajag> bz0b: not that I know of
[06:57] <ttt-> yes
[06:57] <vonderer> hi there
[06:57] <AntonSmari> btw, I am using Gaim Internet Messenger on the live cd at the moment
[06:57] <bz0b> i dont have the users actual password its saved to boot up without pass
[06:57] <vonderer> does anyone here use MPD?
[06:57] <Some_Person> is ext2 beginning also fixed?
[06:57] <coopster> Hibame, i'm not sure, the other OS's should be able to see the drive regardless
[06:57] <ttt-> i got anotther computer hooked up to it, and it is working fine
[06:57] <Hibame> profanephobia: I would use gparted but apprently they havent gotten their livecd to a workable state
[06:57] <sipior> Some_Person: yep
[06:57] <AntonSmari> and its running fine just until I begin install...
[06:57] <Davy_Jones> can i tell synaptic to list all installed packages?
[06:58] <AntonSmari> and If I make the install I get grub error 21
[06:58] <Agrajag> bz0b: So thenyou need to change it
[06:58] <profanephobia> Hibame: you might have a hardware problem
[06:58] <coopster> ttt-, if you run 'ip route' on the computer, does it have a line that says 'default via' ?
[06:58] <bz0b> aaragon: yes so i need a boot cd
[06:58] <Hibame> coopster it has to be something ubuntu server did as ubuntu client cant even install
[06:58] <AntonSmari> just if, its like 1/50
[06:58] <profanephobia> Hibame: is it a SATA drive or what
[06:58] <Agrajag> bz0b: Boot it with a liveCD, chroot into the installed system, and run passwd on his account to change it. Then you can boot it back up and do what you want
[06:58] <phenom> To change you nickserv pass?
[06:58] <Agrajag> bz0b: Yes, you do.
[06:58] <Rayen> Hello, I was just wondering if there is a Linux distribution out there, which is made to only run Xen? (So it would be a very small linux distribution)
[06:58] <Some_Person> why is ext3 beginning fixed?
[06:58] <coopster> Hibame, I've installed server before and it doesn't hide the drive, it sounds like hardware issues
[06:58] <Hibame> profanephobia: the thing is right before I installed ubuntu server all three pata hard drives worked perfectly fine on xp
[06:58] <ttt-> coopster: no it doesnt
[06:58] <sipior> Some_Person: that's complicated
[06:59] <bz0b> agrajag how do i chroot into the system, what would i have to know before i reboot
[06:59] <Agrajag> vonderer: I use it
[06:59] <ikonia> being fixed
[06:59] <ikonia> ?
[06:59] <ikonia> whats wrong with it
[06:59] <profanephobia> Rayen: the smallest linux distro ive used was DSL
[06:59] <Some_Person> i cant move it, i cant copy/paste it, it has less than half a gig free space, theres nothing i can do
[06:59] <AntonSmari> any1 know what could possibly be wrong
[06:59] <malocite> is the canadian distro down?
[06:59] <coopster> ttt-, then that computer doesn't actually have the gateway set.  run 'ip route add default via (router's IP)' as root, and see if that helps.
[06:59] <Agrajag> bz0b: I just told you how to use chroot. It's a very simple command. You need to know the mountpoint of the root filesystem that you want to chroot into
[06:59] <Hibame> coopster: having three hard drives fail at the same time seems unlikely to me
[06:59] <genii> malocite: Yes
[06:59] <sipior> Some_Person: i'm not entirely sure why you can't copy the partition, but i can't see your screen, etc.
[06:59] <malocite> is there a way I can use the us one?
[06:59] <coopster> Hibame, well, so server is installed onto a raid?
[07:00] <bz0b> agrajag is there a command i can use to find the root filesystem
[07:00] <fuffal0> this isn't an ubuntu question really...but i thought i would ask as someone might know ... i shut off my computer last night, and when i go to boot it now it just sits at the inital bios screen (shows the date/time and my cpu, but doesn't move on to RAM/HD detection) - I can't hit DEL to get into setup (my keyboard doesnt look like its been turned on yet) - any ideas?
[07:00] <Agrajag> bz0b: mount
[07:00] <Hibame> coopster: no it was a lvm
[07:00] <bz0b> agrajag its on a notebook computer, is it most likely /root
[07:00] <vonderer> Agrajag: I've got a problem: on my feisty it halts every time I stop playing and start the same track after some time.
[07:00] <ikonia> fuffal0: this is ubuntu support
[07:00] <ttt-> coopster! omg that did it
[07:00] <Agrajag> bz0b: you're not really getting it
[07:00] <genii> malocite: To use the one at York University in toronto, change all   ca.archive.ubuntu.com   to debian.yorku.ca   in the file /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:00] <fuffal0> ikonia i know but i don't know where else to ask
[07:00] <profanephobia> Hibame: ok ive never had ubuntu cause this problem but download something like knoppix and try to let it format your drives
[07:00] <ikonia> fuffal0: on your motherboard makers support system
[07:00] <bz0b> agrajag, eg /dev/sda1
[07:00] <ttt-> coopster: i thought it set the gateway ip already :/
[07:00] <Agrajag> bz0b: and no /root is not the root FS, that's the home directory of the root user
[07:00] <Some_Person> i just recently got ubuntu working perfectly how i want it, it was 2 months in the making
[07:00] <Agrajag> bz0b: that's the device, not the filesystem
[07:00] <Some_Person> i do not want to reinstall
[07:01] <Some_Person> but i need more free space
[07:01] <profanephobia> some_person: what was going on again
[07:01] <neverblue> ca.*.ubuntu.com are so slow
[07:01] <profanephobia> oh yeah
[07:01] <sipior> Some_Person: then back up to another disk, or juggle and remove partitions you don't need
[07:01] <bz0b> agrajag, what main directory would it be in
[07:01] <coopster> ttt-, ;)  take a look at your System -> Administration -> Networking settings and see if it's go the gateway set.  If it's using DHCP, i'm not sure why it wouldnt get set
[07:01] <Agrajag> vonderer: Oh, I run it on dapper with no sound device, just streaming
[07:01] <bz0b> is it /media?
[07:01] <vonderer> Agrajag: ah, nevermind then :)
[07:01] <Agrajag> bz0b: OK. The root filesystem is /.
[07:02] <Agrajag> It will NOT be so when you boot from the CD.
[07:02] <coopster> Hibame, so, all the partitiions that are in the LVM volume should show up to the other OS install, but the LVM volume isnt going to
[07:02] <Agrajag> BEcause then / will be the CD's root
[07:02] <Some_Person> sipior: yeah, back up an entire ubuntu isntall, right? how the fuck do you do that?
[07:02] <genii> Maybe some op can put on topic about ca.archive.ubuntu.com ??
[07:02] <sipior> Some_Person: copy the partition to another disk, problem solved
[07:02] <Agrajag> You need to find out what device is mounted on / NOW, and then find out where that deivce is mounted when you boot the liveCD, and then chroot into that
[07:02] <Some_Person> sipior: i dont have one
[07:02] <profanephobia> Some_person: well all installed packages are archived by ubuntu for one
[07:02] <genii> afk, work
[07:02] <Some_Person> profanephobia: duh
[07:03] <coopster> Some_Person, ...what's the problem?  why can't you just use gparted to move the ext3 partition so that the free space is at the end, and then resize it?
[07:03] <Hibame> coopster, the thing is bios sees the drives and so does the os, but it seems that when the os attemps to write to the drives to start the install nothing happens, windows bsod and linux just says no drives are in the pc
[07:03] <Some_Person> coopster: it wont let me
[07:03] <profanephobia> some_person: ive backed up my install plenty of times
[07:03] <coopster> Some_Person, need to be more specific.  does it slap your hand when you try, or what?
[07:04] <Some_Person> coopster: i choose resize/move, and it just wont let me move it
[07:04] <osxdude|lap> Hello, I want to have a cloned screen (aka 2 X screens). I have tried the turorial on the wiki with no luck.
[07:04] <eubey> how do i make my hard drive show up in the /dev/ folder when booting from the live cd? Right now it is only showing up as /media/disk, but i need to be able to mount it as /dev/hda1
[07:04] <profanephobia> Hibame: ive had your problem before but for me Vista caused it...all i did was scrubbed the drives
[07:04] <J_P> hi all
[07:04] <coopster> Hibame, huh, that's odd.  i would try booting from a LiveCD, boot disk, or whatever and using fdisk to delete all the partitions and see what that does
[07:04] <osxdude|lap> Can anyone help me?
[07:04] <eubey> osxdude|lap, what gfx card u using?
[07:04] <J_P> people, how I know what package have utility 'xv' ?
[07:04] <Hibame> profanephobia: how do I do that
[07:05] <J_P> apt-file search xv ?
[07:05] <varka> osxdude|lap: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174
[07:05] <osxdude|lap> eubey: 5200
[07:05] <Hibame> coopster: I tried the gparted livecd and it didnt support my video card, and when I did the ubuntu livecd it said no drives installed
[07:05] <lxuser> can someone please help me mount my external usb hdd?
[07:06] <coopster> Some_Person, dunno.  copy the partition to either another drive, repartition the one you need, and copy it back.
[07:06] <bz0b> agrajag: eg, like if i was mounting the filesystem on a freshly installed gentoo it would be for example "chroot /mnt/gentoo" right
[07:06] <bz0b> '
[07:06] <lxuser> I can clearly hear the drive spinning but when i try to mount /dev/sda1 it gives me this
[07:06] <profanephobia> Hibame: most people look for third party software like Drive scrubber but try this... first where your drives in raid or was the OS only on on edrive
[07:06] <lxuser> mount point /media/usb1 does not exist
[07:06] <Agrajag> bz0b: something like that, yes
[07:07] <Some_Person> coopster: I DONT HAVE ANOTHER DRIVE FOR THE 3RD TIME
[07:07] <Some_Person> coopster: i dont have another drive
[07:07] <sipior> lxuser: you can just make that dierctory
[07:07] <Hibame> profanephobia: it was only on one drive, I then used lvm to extend to the other two
[07:07] <lxuser> sipior, what do you mean?
[07:07] <sipior> Some_Person: back off, or you can solve your problem on your own.
[07:07] <coopster> Some_Person, so, accept the fact that you've screwed up by not planning ahead.  you'd have to pay me for help before you get to yell at me.  good luck/
[07:07] <bz0b> agrajag, so i know that the installed system is on dev/sda1 so if i mount that to like /mnt/ubuntu then chroot /mnt/ubuntu would that work
[07:08] <Some_Person> coopster: not planning ahead?
[07:08] <eubey> osxdude|lap, install nvidia-glx and nvidia-settings
[07:08] <sipior> lxuser: just do "sudo mkdir /media/usb1", it should then have a mount point
[07:08] <Agrajag> bz0b: yes
[07:08] <profanephobia> Hibame: ok have you removed the drive that the OS was installed on to see if they can be found
[07:08] <bz0b> agrajag. thanks
[07:08] <Agrajag> bz0b: thought the liveCD should mount stuff like that automatically to something like /media/sda1
[07:08] <coopster> Hibame, i'd look for a drive eraser cd, there are some free cd images out there
[07:09] <jetscreamer> what's wrong with dd
[07:09] <bummer> hi to all :)
[07:09] <dominussuus> bummer: hi!
[07:09] <Hibame> profanephobia: I have tried to install to all three drives individualy but all came up with the same issues
[07:09] <eubey> osxdude|lap, then run nvidia-settings via terminal
[07:09] <dominussuus> question for the room: what sort of reputation does wodim/cdrecord have for breaking CD-RWs?
[07:09] <ujuergensen> channels
[07:09] <jetscreamer> !room
[07:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about room - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:09] <profanephobia> Hibame: damn that sucks... ok what all hav eyou tried to format the drives with
[07:09] <Hibame> coopster: got any names off hand?
[07:10] <genii> Sounds like an IDE controller failure and not a drive failure
[07:10] <jetscreamer> what a very extensively lobotomized bot
[07:10] <jetscreamer> !botsnack
[07:10] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[07:10] <eubey> osxdude|lap, then there should be an option under screen or display or something where you can set one of the connected monitors to clone
[07:10] <dominussuus> genii: that was for me?
[07:10] <coopster> Hibame, http://www.killdisk.com/downloadfree.htm
[07:10] <Hibame> profanephobia: windows vista, windows server 2003, windows xp, gparted, ubuntu client, ubuntu server still installs and I tired that but it did nothing
[07:10] <lxuser> sipior, that seemed to do something, now when i try to mount /dev/sda1 it wants me to specify the filesystem. I know what that means, but im not sure what to do
[07:10] <Anlar> jetscreamer: just do /ignore ubotu and then /ignore -regexp -pattern "^!" *  ;)
[07:11] <profanephobia> Hibame: ok one ec and ill find a good prog for you to try
[07:11] <genii> dominussuus: no, for hibame
[07:11] <ds0n> .
[07:11] <dominussuus> genii: okay :)
[07:11] <sipior> lxuser: odd, it should just mount when you plug it in. you can specify the filesystem type with the -t option to mount
[07:11] <eubey> osxdude|lap, you may have to go to system>administration>restricted drivers manager and enable the nvidia driver
[07:11] <Hibame> genii: but then how do I still install ubuntu server to them just fine?
[07:11] <jetscreamer> Anlar: why would i want to ignore the bot
[07:12] <lxuser> sipior, fdisk -l tells me its fat32, is there something i need to modify in the fstab?
[07:12] <coopster> lxuser, if it's giving you a mount point not found error, try running 'mkdir /media/usb1' then trying.
[07:12] <Anlar> jetscreamer: because it's utter rubbish?
[07:12] <osxdude|lap> eubey:  I did
[07:12] <fluffles> hi guys, how can i 'rescan' the Parallel ATA bus for harddrives? in FreeBSD that would be atacontrol reinit ata0, any linux/ubuntu equivalent?
[07:12] <profanephobia> Hibame: ok try going here http://www.webmasterfree.com/Hard_Disk_Scrubber_2.0_d1472.html
[07:12] <lxuser> coopster, ive done that, now its asking me to specify a file system.
[07:12] <Hibame> profanephobia: do I need to hook my drives up to a windows box to use that?
[07:12] <eubey> osxdude|lap, kk then restart compy and use nvidia-settings to configure the dual screen or clone or whatever you need
[07:12] <sipior> lxuser: yes, the type should be vfat
[07:12] <genii> Hibame: Goos question :)
[07:12] <genii> bleh, typos
[07:13] <osxdude|lap> eubey: I
[07:13] <osxdude|lap> oops
[07:13] <jetscreamer> Anlar: sometimes it knows things though, url's for one
[07:13] <profanephobia> Hibame: i think its a bootable image im not sure why it mentions os requirements
[07:13] <benzs_s> so i downloaded the KDE stuff onto ubuntu
[07:13] <lxuser> sipior, what specifically should it look like? just making sure
[07:13] <benzs_s> how does one change from gnome to kde in one swift movement
[07:13] <coopster> Hibame, the link i gave you has a bootable cd.
[07:13] <benzs_s> ninjakde or something
[07:13] <Hibame> profanephobia: its an exe
[07:13] <vonderer>  I'm trying to use MPD here, on my kubuntu 7.04, and have this problem: every time I try to play the same song after stopping it or to continue after pausing it for some time, it halts. Is there any way to solve this problem?
[07:13] <jetscreamer> benzs_s: you can install kde, gnome, whatever.... the seperation is kinda artificial
[07:13] <osxdude|lap> eubey: I'll just restart X
[07:13] <Hibame> coopster: yea I am downloading it now
[07:13] <benzs_s> jetscreamer: oui
[07:13] <jetscreamer> mix&match to taste
[07:13] <eubey> osxdude|lap, go fors it
[07:14] <benzs_s> well i tried using kubuntu, but it was buggy as hell for some reason
[07:14] <profanephobia> benzs_s: if you want the absoulute fastest way then log out and change your session
[07:14] <sipior> lxuser: /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb1  vfat defaults  0  0
[07:14] <benzs_s> oh?
[07:14] <Anlar> jetscreamer: not really, as all of those are usually the first hits using google, and it doesn't cause that silly spam here
[07:14] <benzs_s> at the login menu?
[07:14] <profanephobia> hibame: oh shit sorry ill look again
[07:14] <benzs_s> <_ something of a noob, sorry
[07:14] <lostMyMarbles> I am trying to start a program called GENS and when I click on the icon it appears in the task bar and says starting GENS but then nothing happens and it disappears from the task bar any ideas?
[07:14] <profanephobia> benzs_s: yeah at the log in screen go to options and change session to KDE
[07:14] <jetscreamer> Anlar: i was thinking more about the ubuntu.com url's
[07:14] <benzs_s> damn
[07:14] <coopster> benzs_s, you can run 'apt-get install kubuntu-desktop' and it will grab everything you need.
[07:14] <benzs_s> easy as that huh?
[07:15] <jetscreamer> Anlar: i do prefer dpkg though
[07:15] <profanephobia> lostmymarbles: try to launch it from the terminal
[07:15] <benzs_s> coopster: i did it through synaptic, so i assume it should all be there?
[07:15] <lostMyMarbles> I did and it says.../home/richard/.gtkrc-2.0:2: error: scanner: unterminated string constant - e.g. `style'
[07:15] <coopster> benzs_s, yep, then you'd just need to change the session
[07:15] <benzs_s> awesome
[07:15] <benzs_s> cheers guys
[07:16] <profanephobia> cheers
[07:16] <lxuser> sipior, worked like a charm, thanks!
[07:16] <sipior> lxuser: my pleasure
[07:16] <profanephobia> Hibame: do you have a floppy drive
[07:17] <Hibame> profanephobia: yes
[07:17] <Hibame> profanephobia: but not disks
[07:17] <profanephobia> hibame: ok then try using DOS to format the drives...(wow i cant believe i said that)
[07:17] <profanephobia> oh
[07:17] <bommelom> has anyone got wpa2 encryption working under ubuntu?
[07:17] <Davy_Jones> why do i think ubuntu takes up a lot of disk space?
[07:18] <profanephobia> davy_jones: why do you think that
[07:18] <romgmz> hi im very new, i need healp
[07:18] <umop-apisdn> Davy_Jones: hah! you should see sabayon's footprint
[07:18] <profanephobia> romgmz: what the prob
[07:18] <Davy_Jones> profanephobia: i installed it on a 6GB drive.. and it's 100 percent full
[07:18] <scd-br> somebody knows some Java IDE, slight and good, to Ubuntu?
[07:18] <romgmz> how can install my second hdd its all ready in my lap
[07:18] <Davy_Jones> profanephobia: i know i got stuff in my /home folder but still
[07:18] <Davy_Jones> they don't take up that much
[07:19] <profanephobia> davy_jones: uninstall unneeded packages surely there are things you dont need
[07:19] <stefg> romgmz: you need to make a partition, format it with a filesystem, and the choose a mountpoint and enter that to /etc/fstab
[07:19] <profanephobia> romgmz: if your hard drive has been installed then all thats left is to format it
[07:19] <profanephobia> romgmz: use gparted
[07:19] <Davy_Jones> profanephobia: i am in the process of doing that
[07:20] <Davy_Jones> i uninstalled evolution, balckjack games, palmOS stuff
[07:20] <stefg> romgmz: what are you going to use the drive for?
[07:20] <profanephobia> davy_jones: maybe ubuntu isnt the right distro for you..maybe you need a smaller distro
[07:20] <Davy_Jones> i got 60 MB back
[07:20] <umop-apisdn> Davy_Jones: my ubuntu install eats only 2.4gb
[07:20] <Davy_Jones> profanephobia: probably.. i'll try crux
[07:20] <romgmz> i want to use my 2 hdd
[07:21] <umop-apisdn> Davy_Jones: how big is your home folder?
[07:21] <profanephobia> although im not sure where all that space went
[07:21] <romgmz> like in w xp c and d
[07:21] <Davy_Jones> umop-apisdn: and they keep telling you windows is bloated
[07:21] <illovae> hello
[07:21] <romgmz> but i cant found my second hdd
[07:21] <umop-apisdn> Davy_Jones: windows *is* bloated... have you seen how much space vista eats?

[07:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Davy_Jones: burn var/apt/cache/archives to a cd
[07:21] <Davy_Jones> umop-apisdn: my home folder is 740.6MB
[07:21] <profanephobia> romgmz: do you mean you want windows to be install on that hdd or that you want it to be able to read that drive
[07:22] <Davy_Jones> umop-apisdn: think i gotta delete some pr0n
[07:22] <profanephobia> lol
[07:22] <umop-apisdn> Davy_Jones: my *clean* vista install ate 18 gigs.
[07:22] <Davy_Jones> umop-apisdn: but 2.4GB is still too much for an operating system
[07:22] <Davy_Jones> umop-apisdn: what???? 18 gigs?
[07:22] <profanephobia> geesh
[07:22] <umop-apisdn> Davy_Jones: open a console, type "df -H" (minus the quotes)
[07:22] <profanephobia> was it ultimate
[07:22] <profanephobia> lol
[07:22] <AntonSmari> hey all
[07:22] <umop-apisdn> profanephobia: nope - default install from dell, vista home basic
[07:23] <romgmz> i want to read it and format to use just ubuntu
[07:23] <profanephobia> lol
[07:23] <stefg> Davy_Jones: we're talking a /full/ OS, including Office browser and mail here...
[07:23] <Davy_Jones> umop-apisdn: /dev/sda5     ext3    6.0G  5.6G   89M  99% /
[07:23] <Davy_Jones> 99 percent full
[07:23] <umop-apisdn> oh yeah... i uninstalled openoffice
[07:23] <AntonSmari> managed to install ubuntu on my desktop...  but I got grub error 21...
[07:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Davy_Jones: Look to see how much space var/apt/cache/archives is taking up
[07:23] <profanephobia> romgmz: ok just format it to however you see fit
[07:23] <stefg> !minimal
[07:23] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[07:23] <AntonSmari> AGAIN :(
[07:23] <screencast> hi
[07:23] <Davy_Jones> profanephobia: i just did apt-get clean yesterday
[07:24] <Jack_Sparrow> Davy_Jones: Look to see how much space var/cache/apt/archives is taking up
[07:24] <zaxor0> I have a usb hard drive tat did mount before on ubuntu but now it doesnt, but it does on another computer, how can I fix this?
