[00:00] <Scunizi> peaces: there should be a network icon up by the date/clock. click that.. if you have wpa or web on your router disable that first.  If broadcasting is off turn it on (in the router)
[00:01] <peaces> Scunizi: what should i do after i disable that?
[00:01] <mn> Might anyone be able to help me with getting a screenlet installed?
[00:02] <Scunizi> peaces: after disabling teh wpa/wep?
[00:03] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: ask someone how to list the most recently laid down files in /var/cache/apt/archives with ls. or perhaps read the man page for ls and figure it out. or, maybe just try and manully installed the next oldest version of pulseaudio packages in there with the dpkg command and see what happens. it's up to you about reinstalling tho.
[00:03] <peaces> Sxunizi: Yeah I just disabled that
[00:03] <onetinsoldier> manually install*
[00:03] <peaces> Scunizi: Yeah I just disabled the wpa
[00:04] <Capn_Fish> rww: I'm trying to disable the auto-creation of recovery boot options
[00:04] <Scunizi> peaces: turn on "broadcasting" so the rest of the neighborhood will see your router, including your laptop.. once you've figured out how to connect then you can go back and disable broadcasting and either reestablish wpa/wep or use mac filtering to limit access to your laptop
[00:05] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: i really recommend you keep asking every few minutes for someone to help you figure out your sound problem. but make sure you let them know you installed proposed updates
[00:05] <rrplay> mn, some info here http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/03/17/os-x-like-widgets-with-screenlets-on-ubuntu-3rd-update/
[00:05] <peaces> Scunizi: I have broadcasting on, I don't know even where in ubuntu I would go to be able to see SSID's though
[00:05] <caseheart> ontinsoldier, i checked the /var/cache/apt/archives and it shows no new files today, shows friday as last date modified day
[00:06] <rww> Capn_Fish: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and change "alternative=true" to "alternative=false", then run sudo update-grub
[00:06] <rrplay> !screenlets
[00:06] <Scunizi> peaces: up by the clock in the upper right corner there is an icon that looks like windows networking icon.. 2 computer screens, one in front of the other.
[00:06] <peaces> Scunizi: yup nothing in there about wireless though
[00:07] <Scunizi> peaces: when you click on it what appears in the drop down box.?
[00:07] <peaces> Scunizi: just my wired network connection
[00:07] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: ok, roger. what version of pulseaudio do you have installed?
[00:07] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: mine is... 0.9.10-2ubuntu9.2
[00:07] <caseheart> onetinsoldier, forgive me, how do i check that?
[00:08] <onetinsoldier> dpkg -l pulseaudio
[00:08] <Scunizi> peaces: have you looked in System > Admin > Hardware drivers to see if there are drivers there that are not activated for your wireless card?
[00:08] <caseheart> onetinsoldier 0.9.10-2ubuntu PulseAudio sound server
[00:08] <peaces> Scunizi: yeah there is one in there that was automatically installed when i started up for the first time
[00:09] <Capn_Fish> rww: thanks
[00:09] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: hmmm, no 9.2 on the end? interesting
[00:09] <caseheart> onetinsoldier would you like to see the verbose output from dpkg -l pulseaudio?
[00:09] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: sure.
[00:10] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: if you mena all the lines besides the one that list the version number... then no
[00:10] <Scunizi> peaces: I'm not on a wireless connection right now to look and play, but right mouse clicking on the icon and left clicking on the icon will give you different options. What you're looking for is for an option to switch from ath0 to something else.. (not sure how it'll be labeled..)
[00:10] <caseheart> ok 10-4 didnt know if that would make a difference?
[00:10] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: here'
[00:11] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: here's my entire line...  ii  pulseaudio                0.9.10-2ubuntu9.2         PulseAudio sound server
[00:11] <sivel> hello all
[00:11] <peaces> Scunizi: I know what you mean, but its not there... I have been playing around with this for hours now
[00:11] <caseheart> onetinsoldier mine is ii  pulseaudio     0.9.10-2ubuntu PulseAudio sound server
[00:11] <juhls> Apt-get can't verify some packages cause it is missing some gpg keys...  Does anyone know where I can get them?
[00:12] <Zerocool947> I just installed a package from synaptic that's supposed to give me utilities for my laptop, but I don't know how to access it or modify it
[00:12] <peaces> Scunizi: I appreciate you help, my dinner just finished though so I'll try again later thanks again
[00:12] <sivel> i cant seem to get around this annoying keyring popup when i open evolution. i dont have auto login enabled, and i type in the admin password, to no avail, any ideas?
[00:12] <juhls> I can't seem to get the right words for google
[00:12] <Scunizi> peaces: hopefully someone else will jump in and know the answer.. Unfortunatly I'm stuck.. Have you read ubottu's reference page..?
[00:12] <Scunizi> !wireless | peaces
[00:12] <FAJ> Scunizi: what is his issue?
[00:12] <juhls> Gives me too much info
[00:13] <mn> rrplay: can you help me with getting the vista start button clone working? it doesn't say anything about it there
[00:13] <sivel> !keyring
[00:13] <Scunizi> FAJ: he has an atheros card that he can't get connected. drivers are loaded he says from install and can see them in Sys>Admin>Hardware..
[00:13] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: i probably can't help much with this tho. you need to put the question out to the whole channel like you were before, but just make sure you let them know you installed proposed updates.. if you actually did. btw, try piping your dpkg -l command into less and see it looks a little different. i don't know why my version looks a little different than yours
[00:13] <adaptr> !seahorse
[00:13] <adaptr> pffrt
[00:13] <juhls> !gpg
[00:13] <rww> juhls: can you copy the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list into pastebin, please?
[00:13] <FAJ> Scunizi:  did he try iwconfig ging it?
[00:13] <rrplay> mn: what screenlet are you using
[00:13] <rww> !pastebin > juhls
[00:14] <onetinsoldier> caseheart:  try this...  dpkg -l pulse* | less
[00:14] <Scunizi> FAJ: not with me.. but he says he's been trying for several hours..
[00:14] <FAJ> Scunizi: o ok .
[00:14] <caseheart> onetinsoldier   ii  pulseaudio                                0.9.10-2ubuntu9.1                       PulseAudio sound server
[00:14] <caseheart> thats what i get from piping it.
[00:14] <juhls> hold on
[00:14] <anto9us> Zerocool947, read your package's information provided in synaptic
[00:14] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: ahh, there you go! entire version number now
[00:15] <caseheart> Thx for teaching me that trick o.t.s.
[00:15] <Scunizi> FAJ: if you have suggestions for him to try, since he's eating dinner you may consider sending him a /msg or PM so he'll see it later.
[00:15] <FAJ> ok
[00:15] <Zerocool947> anto9us: I did, it didn't provide anything. Also, I restarted and i don't remember what the package is called
[00:15] <mn> rrplay:  I am trying to make my ubuntu desktop look like Aero and I am trying to use the orb screenlet to add the top and the bottom to the orb start button.  I am also trying to get the button screenlet up
[00:15] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: as you can see, i have a slightly newer version.. perhaps the version i have has been bugfixed
[00:15] <flaco> hello, anyone can tell me reasons why my hard drive (sata) is not recognized in the installation??
[00:15] <rrplay> mn: try the screenlet wiki or forum etc google for the vista clone info you want
[00:16] <caseheart> onetinsodier, please tell me if this is correct, sudo apt-get install pulseaudio ?
[00:16] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: i emphasize 'perhaps'
[00:16] <mn> trying it
[00:16] <Rdgcrs> How can I disable NetworkManager?
[00:16] <Rdgcrs> on Ubuntu 8.10
[00:16] <anto9us> Zerocool947, then, retrace your steps, what were you looking for and why? All packages have a list of installed files.
[00:16] <Scunizi> Rdgcrs: uninstall it.
[00:16] <FAJ> Rdgcrs: why?
[00:16] <sivel> anyone on the keyring problem?
[00:16] <FAJ> Rdgcrs:  you could disable it in sessions
[00:16] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: sudo apt-get update... then  sudo apt-get install pulseaudio
[00:16] <Zerocool947> anto9us: it was a set of utilities for dell laptops
[00:17] <Rdgcrs> FAJ: How?
[00:17] <Zerocool947> anto9us: I found it in the terminal, then downloaded it through synaptic
[00:17] <justizin1> the installer screen wraps at the top and overlaps itself, anyone ever seen this?
[00:17] <FAJ> Rdgcrs: in System>Prefernces>Sessions
[00:17] <caseheart> i still get same thing, latest version
[00:17] <Rdgcrs> ok
[00:17] <FAJ> Rdgcrs:  i wouldn't recommend disabling it though..
[00:17] <justizin1> sorry, in alternate / text installer, that is..
[00:18] <Rdgcrs> FAJ: I have network problems if I use it
[00:18] <rrplay> mn;   try here http://gnomestyle.blogspot.com/2007/05/make-ubuntu-look-like-vista.html
[00:18] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: roger. sorry to hear that. you might try rebooting tho. however, i have serious doubts that will help
[00:18] <FAJ> Rdgcrs:  what are you using in it's place?
[00:18] <anto9us> Zerocool947, so, what do you need help with? Synaptic includes a list of files that each package will install.
[00:18] <FAJ> Rdgcrs:  i agree ;)  gnome-network-manager sucks
[00:18] <FAJ> Rdgcrs:  wicd is really good
[00:18] <mn> rrplay: those are the directions i am trying to follow :(
[00:19] <Rdgcrs> FAJ: The common Debian's way... /etc/network/interfaces...
[00:19] <Zerocool947> anto9us: well first I need to find the package. Then I need to find what it installed exactly and how I activate it
[00:19] <FAJ> Rdgcrs:  ah that works too...
[00:19] <natsukao> hello
[00:19] <juhls> rww, http://paste.ubuntu.com/89567/
[00:19] <caseheart> lol, i will definitely try.....however i fear  you are correct. I do appreciate the help, and you DID at least teach me one trick..so....my thanks.   I will continue to ask, as I really would like to know WHY as much as fix it...
[00:19] <rrplay> mn : WMs and eye-candy are fun !!
[00:20] <anto9us> Zerocool947, in terminal, pressing up arrow will step you back through your history of typed commands
[00:20] <natsukao> i would to know if there is a video editor that give me the possibility to import files *.flv
[00:20] <Rdgcrs> FAJ: I'll try wicd when I have time... thanks!
[00:20] <_Ire> whats the command for a new folder?
[00:20] <Zerocool947> anto9us: I found it in synaptic, but I can't find where It would have installed the program
[00:20] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: you sound like me now.. i almost always want to know 'why'. curiousity killed the cat! lol
[00:20] <FAJ> Rdgcrs:  ya, i have never had issues with wicd.  it works especially well with wifi.... and it removes gnome-network-manager for you ;)
[00:20] <IndyGunFreak> natsukao: import flv files?
[00:20] <natsukao> yes
[00:21] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: good luck to u   :-)
[00:21] <anto9us> Zerocool947, it may have been a number of programs, look at its file list, it may have put some in /usr/bin or similar
[00:21] <caseheart> I recently installed proposed updates, have pulse audio newest version , AC97 audio, just quit working for no reason, everything shows like it should work, but no sound (tested multiple outputs....not a cord , etc)........Anyone have a clue what would cause it to just die? The only thing I have done is install the new updates, and i was trying to install a webcam earlier.
[00:21] <mn> rrplay: :) I agree, but this is though for me to figure out.  The first time I did it, the botton came up fine.  Then I changed the config back like it was, and now I try to put that button back on there and it won't work
[00:21] <natsukao> or to import *.ogv files
[00:21] <rww> juhls: thanks. Looks like the only repositories you have are official Ubuntu ones. Did you delete the Ubuntu Archive keys by accident or something?
[00:21] <juhls> rww, so what are your thoughts?
[00:22] <juhls> rww, I don't see how... I never touched it
[00:22] <rrplay> mn; cant say that i had tried this one here
[00:22] <Scunizi> caseheart: if you installed "proposed" and it goofed something then you should report it as a bug/regression.. that's somtimes the problem with "proposed"
[00:22] <rww> juhls: hmm. Can you pastebin the output of "sudo apt-key list" for me? That'll show the keys you have right now.
[00:23] <caseheart> Scunizi, could you breifly explain where/how? I have no problem doing that.
[00:23] <juhls> rww, sure give me a sec
[00:23] <Scunizi> caseheart: htt://www.launchpad.com and search for ubuntu then the package or just search for the package.
[00:24] <philsf> if I update the lvm2 package, do I need to reboot (I'm using LVM volumes)?
[00:24] <rrplay> mn: did you log in and out yet   restart X ??
[00:24] <deepfriedsquirre> Hi
[00:24] <deepfriedsquirre> Where's the log file for fsck?
[00:24] <Scunizi> caseheart: also I think if proposed is still activated, you could look in Synaptic for the package and there might be a link in the description
[00:24] <rww> juhls: oh, and if you have any files in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory, pastebin them too (you can put them in the same pastebin as the apt-key output)
[00:24] <juhls> rww, http://paste.ubuntu.com/89569/
[00:24] <caseheart> I get this from launchpad  Apache/2.2.9 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.9 OpenSSL/0.9.8i DAV/2 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/<IP_ADDRESS>35 Server at www.launchpad.com Port 80
[00:25] <juhls> rww, I'll need to make another post
[00:25] <Scunizi> caseheart: try launchpad.net
[00:25] <rww> juhls: okay, that works too :)
[00:25] <FAJ> where is the bootup log found?
[00:25] <Scunizi> caseheart: /ubuntu
[00:25] <Scunizi> FAJ: /var/log ??
[00:26] <FAJ> Scunizi: lol... yes?  but which log is it?
[00:26] <rww> FAJ: /var/log/dmesg, /var/log/daemon.log, /var/log/messages, depending on what exactly you're looking for
[00:26] <FAJ> rww:  you know if you turn usplash off... where can i see what is being written there?
[00:26] <juhls> rww, http://paste.ubuntu.com/89570/
[00:26] <Scunizi> FAJ: I could(n't) tell you but then I'd have to rm you :)
[00:26] <flacom> hi, any ideas why a disk is not recognized during the installation but its recognized in the bios?
[00:26] <FAJ> lol
[00:27] <juhls> rww, running Xubuntu btw no one in that channel is giving me the light of day.  I used the desktop install
[00:27] <CelticLord> nuit !!
[00:27] <deepfriedsquirre> Where's the log file for fsck, fsck.ext3 and e2fsck?
[00:27] <juhls> rww, I hope I didn't shoot myself in the foot telling you that
[00:27] <FAJ> rww:  it's not in /var/log/boot
[00:27] <Jack_Sparrow> flacom ou can hit F6 and try all_generic_ide on the command line and remove quiet and splash while you are there
[00:28] <joshual> hi folks, trying to use k3b to burn an iso, k3b doesnt detect a cdrom
[00:28] <sivel> can anyone see this?
[00:28] <Scunizi> joshual: do you have more than one in the machine?
[00:28] <rww> juhls: nope, I figured you were running Xubuntu from your sources.list file. So the only repositories you're using are the Ubuntu and Medibuntu ones, and you have the keys for all them... hmm. Which packages are you getting an error for?
[00:28] <fourat> hello all
[00:28] <rww> sivel: yes
[00:28] <Scunizi> sivel: yep
[00:28] <sivel> i cant seem to get around this annoying keyring popup when i open evolution. i dont have auto login enabled, and i type in the admin password, to no avail, any ideas?
[00:29] <Scunizi> sivel: is it asking for the password(s) to your email accounts when checking?
[00:29] <rww> FAJ: then look in the three files I told you about :)
[00:29] <sivel> yes
[00:29] <FAJ> rww:  looking...
[00:29] <juhls> rww, I can't remember.  I could never get any help on the subject so I just allowed them to be installed...
[00:29] <Swabby> Is there like a website or faq that recommends applications to design websites and run them on linux?
[00:29] <fourat> i need to limit internet access on a per-user account basis, so for example, i want to apply some firewall rules when user X is logged in ... anyone ?
[00:29] <everettz> Does anyone know if Eeebuntu supports accessible install like Intrepid?
[00:29] <fourat> just for an idea
[00:29] <sivel> whn i type in the admin password for the keyring, it keeps on popping right back up as if the pass is wrong
[00:29] <sivel> when
[00:30] <juhls> rww, probably not a real good idea.... But patience wasn't my strong suit...
[00:30] <Scunizi> sivel: mine has been doing that too.. I kill the evo-data server and that seems to help.. sometimes.. other times I simply close Evo then kill the data server and reload.. then it works for a while... I think this started a couple of updates ago.
[00:30] <FAJ> rww:  could you name them again please :D
[00:30] <deepfriedsquirre> Where's the log file for fsck, fsck.ext3 and e2fsck?
[00:30] <yaris123456789> hey guys i added index.html to public_html, but it keeps showing Great Success ! Apache is working on your cPanel® and WHM™ Server
[00:30] <rww> FAJ: /var/log/dmesg, /var/log/daemon.log, /var/log/messages, depending on what exactly you're looking for
[00:30] <sivel> how do i kill and reload it
[00:30] <sivel> ?
[00:30] <darkfuzion> yo yo yo
[00:30] <justizin1> howdy, i somehow ended up in expert install mode with only the option to install LILO, and i'm trying to figure out how to install / configure grub manually, any pointers? i installed grub2 package and ran update-grub, but still have no menu.lst, just a grub.conf
[00:30] <nonickname2> hi; i tried creating a live usb stick from kubuntu 8.10 (desktop) using usb-creator - now i'm getting "Missing operating system" when i try to boot from that usb stick
[00:30] <anto9us> fourat, http://tips.webdesign10.com/using-linux-for-web-design-and-development-ubuntu
[00:31] <FAJ> rww:  didn't see what i was looking for :\
[00:31] <juhls> rww, so if it happens again, I'll basically need to figure out what repository it came from.
[00:31] <FAJ> in thos fiels
[00:31] <Swabby> anto9us: that for me? :)
[00:31] <nonickname2> didn't find any solution yet - anyone got the same?
[00:31] <juhls> nonickname2, dd your usb stick... Boot record is messed up...
[00:31] <rww> juhls: yeah, basically
[00:31] <anto9us> Swabby, yes, my eyes were crooked :)
[00:31] <rww> juhls: but it looks like you have all the right keys for the repos you have, which is why I'm confused
[00:31] <Scunizi> sivel: you can add the system monitor to one of your panels by right mouse clicking on the panel and "add" .. once there it should be self explainitory.
[00:32] <nonickname2> juhls: heh... is there some help/tutorial page somewhere?
[00:32] <Swabby> anto9us: thanks for the site
[00:32] <flacom> Jack_Sparrow, like this: file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper all_generic_ide ??
[00:32] <juhls> rww, how do you know I have the keys lol?
[00:32] <nonickname2> (i.e. a "definitive" one...)
[00:32] <juhls> nonickname2, man dd
[00:32] <rww> juhls: from http://paste.ubuntu.com/89569/

[00:33] <[TiZ]> Hi. There is a _seriously_ annoying bug in Evolution, and I'm looking for another mail client. I want to try out Claws Mail, but I need to get all of my mail from Evolution to Claws. Can anyone help me with that?
[00:33] <badr> I have a question related to the Logitech Wireless Dj Music system support
[00:33] <rww> juhls: the first key there is for the *.archive.ubuntu.com servers. The second is for Ubuntu CDs. The third is for Medibuntu. I don't see any repos in your sources.list files other than those.
[00:33] <[TiZ]> A seriously annoying bug that GNOME doesn't seem to care about, that is.
[00:33] <juhls> nonickname2, google "dd a disk"
[00:33] <badr> is it possible to use it under ubuntu?
[00:33] <Scunizi> [TiZ]: what bug
[00:33] <juhls> rww, so the key name is in the remarks on the sources.list?
[00:33] <darkfuzion> balah
[00:34] <[TiZ]> Scunizi: Read mail being marked as read.
[00:34] <spriizha> can someone help please: what is alternatives in linux of command: 'links' inh
[00:34] <[TiZ]> unread, that is
[00:34] <spriizha> in diferent linux
[00:34] <anto9us> [TiZ], use an IMAP server, google provide a free one, then upload you email to it and it can then be brought in to any client supporting IMAP
[00:34] <mia_tech> guys need some help doing a pxe network install? anyone?
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[00:34] <nonickname2> k, will bug you again though i guess *g*
[00:34] <Scunizi> [TiZ]: that's strange. I don't have that issue..
[00:34] <[TiZ]> anto9us, I hate Gmail's IMAP.
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> mia_tech: let me websearch
[00:34] <nonickname2> (never used dd up to now)
[00:34]  * ElijahDuBarryVT is away: I'm not here, please try again latter!
[00:34] <jin> [TiZ], use gmail pop3 then
[00:34] <darkfuzion> yo yo yo
[00:34] <onetinsoldier> darkfuzion: hello. how are you doing?
[00:34] <anto9us> [TiZ], a temporary solution to a temporary problem, yes?
[00:34] <jin> what is so great about imap anyway?
[00:34] <rww> juhls: nope, which keys sign which repos is just something you have to learn, really.
[00:35] <darkfuzion> onetinsoldier:good got a new laptop
[00:35] <mrwes> re
[00:35] <paulo> #ubuntu-es
[00:35] <badr> is it possible to use Logitech wireless dj music system with ubuntu?
[00:35] <juhls> rww, where did you get your information?
[00:35] <darkfuzion> with Nvidia Gforce Go
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> mia_tech: http://myy.helia.fi/~karte/ubuntu_pxe.html
[00:35] <mia_tech> ActionParsnip: I kind of have it half way... i"m not sure if I"m using the right boot image
[00:35] <deepfriedsquirre> Where's the log file for fsck, fsck.ext3 and e2fsck?
[00:35] <[TiZ]> Scunizi: I used to start Evolution at startup with Alltray, and I used Mail Notification with it. So I would usually just shut down without properly exiting it. When I start my computer again, much of my mail is unread again, and I get many notifications about them.
[00:35] <anto9us> jin, it's great for getting email between disparate and uncooperative clients
[00:35] <rww> juhls: for end-users, we usually just include a line on how to install the required GPG key in the instructions for adding the repositoriy
[00:35] <[TiZ]> That's my bug.
[00:35] <onetinsoldier> darkfuzion: oh! must be nice, or i hope it is anyway! no more old ancient radeon 9200 eh? hehe
[00:35] <[TiZ]> jin: I'm not sure I want to redownload all 7000 of my e-mails.
[00:35] <darkfuzion> lol no way
[00:36] <onetinsoldier> :-)
[00:36] <penol> how to mount ipod touch 2gen (2.2 firmware) in ubuntu?
[00:36] <darkfuzion> it have amd turion 64 mobile
[00:36] <adaptr> penol:  plug it in
[00:36] <rww> juhls: I forget, to be honest
[00:36] <penol> adaptr: It dont show up
[00:36] <juhls> rww, makes sense cause you wouldn't expect someone not to have a key in the instal
[00:36] <darkfuzion> now i gotta install ubuntu on it
[00:36] <adaptr> penol: where
[00:36] <penol> and i cant sync files adaptr
[00:36] <ActionParsnip> deepfriedsquirre: /var/log/fsck
[00:36] <penol> adaptr: on desktop
[00:36] <adaptr> penol: why should it ?
[00:36] <deepfriedsquirre> ActionParsnip: Thanks, but it doesn't contain enough
[00:36] <darkfuzion> and figure out how to partition it with windows on it
[00:36] <adaptr> penol: get a media player that supports it
[00:36] <juhls> rww, so somehow I am installing software that doesn't have a key lol
[00:37] <penol> adaptr: amarok :/ ?
[00:37] <rww> juhls: exactly. Ubuntu adds the Ubuntu keys during its setup. If you follow the Medibuntu install steps, it installs its key... the only time you /should/ have missing keys is if you're using a PPA
[00:37] <adaptr> penol: yes, I use amarok
[00:37] <ActionParsnip> deepfriedsquirre: maybe some extra switches gives more info to the log?
[00:37] <penol> adaptr: do i need to install some other files ?
[00:37] <deepfriedsquirre> switches?
[00:37] <onetinsoldier> darkfuzion: ahh, nice. so now you can have the 64-bit version of linux. very cool
[00:37] <mia_tech> ActionParsnip: ok it says that the boot image is pxelinux.0 but the pc is booting up but not getting the image
[00:37] <rww> juhls: which is what i thought was going on at first, but there aren't any ppa lines in there, so i guess not :(
[00:37] <adaptr> penol: not that I know of
[00:37] <adaptr> penol: you have to configure the ipod in amarok, hat's it
[00:37] <juhls> rww, So I've been installing stuff I shouldn't have
[00:37] <penol> adaptr: is it hard?
[00:37] <white-sheep> There are ~/.bash_login in Mac.  What's the equivalent for Ubuntu?
[00:38] <adaptr> penol: just go and do it
[00:38] <juhls> rww, computer doesn't act differently
[00:38] <white-sheep> ~/.bashrc ?
[00:38] <penol> adaptr: i will try, and i ask here if google cant help me.
[00:38] <juhls> rww, they keys were created for a purpose lol
[00:38] <yaris123456789> hey guys i added index.html to public_html, but it keeps showing Great Success ! Apache is working on your cPanel® and WHM™ Server
[00:38] <juhls> ah well...
[00:38] <ActionParsnip> mia_tech: http://www.pyrosoft.co.uk/blog/2007/05/13/ubuntu-pxe-network-install-with-fiesty-fawn-704/ just replace fiesty with intrepid or hardy
[00:38] <juhls> Can't turn back time...
[00:38] <peaces> can anyone help me to get wireless working?  I don't even really know where to begin
[00:38] <rww> juhls: well, if you were just using Synaptic or apt-get install packagename, everything from there should have been signed properly. Hence me wanting to know the package name so that I could figure out why it wasn't picking up the key/signature
[00:38] <Dr_Willis_AAO> white-sheep,  .bashrc  And .bash_profile normally
[00:39] <onetinsoldier> darkfuzion: you just partition normally. just make them all extended partition after yer windows partitions. if you need to re-size the windows partition, well, i'm not familiar with that
[00:39] <penol> yaris123456789: change a setting in /etc/apache2/sites-enables/000-default
[00:39] <juhls> rww, if it happens again I'll be sure to mark which package
[00:39] <FAJ> in tty, how can i scroll up?
[00:39] <onetinsoldier> !partitioning | darkfuzion
[00:39] <juhls> rww, I just said screw it...  I think it was kate or something..
[00:39] <white-sheep> Dr_Willis_AAO -- Do you know how to define your environmental variables?  Is that $PATH?
[00:40] <darrend> I have an rsnapshot script attempting to log in to a remote ubuntu box to do backups, how should it backup stuff like /etc when there's no root user it can rsh as?
[00:40] <Dr_Willis_AAO> white-sheep,  .bashrc or .bash_profile for a per user settings...
[00:40] <ActionParsnip> peaces: run lspci and lsusb, one will identify the device, you can websearch from there
[00:40] <penol> adaptr: Using Amarok to transfer music to iPhone 3G and iPod Touch 2G (models introduced in 2008) and all other models of iPod Touch and iPhone that have been upgraded to firmware 2.x does not work: Apple introduced a cryptographic hash into the song database of the device, and as long as the method to compute this hash has not been reverse engineered and implemented within libgpod, updating the database with libgpod will result in your device not
[00:40] <rww> FAJ: Shift + Page Up
[00:40] <FAJ> rww:  thanks
[00:41] <juhls> white-sheep, the .bashrc is read by xterminals
[00:41] <adaptr> penol: and you have one of those ?
[00:41] <penol> adaptr: yeah :(
[00:41] <FAJ> rww:  not working?
[00:41] <adaptr> penol: sorry, I have a nano that works just fine :)
[00:41] <deepfriedsquirre> I ran fsck and /var/fsck/log doesn't contain a lot. How can I get the standard output back?
[00:41] <white-sheep> juhls -- I mean -- How do I set environment variables -- Is that by defining the given directory in $path ?
[00:41] <juhls> white-sheep, supposedly the .bash_profile or .profile is source by the .bashrc
[00:41] <darkfuzion> well i have the whole drive in windows
[00:41] <FAJ> rww:  nvm
[00:42] <juhls> white-sheep, export VARIABLE makes it available to all shells
[00:42] <penol> adaptr: Damn, *is running around to find steve jobs, to kill him*
[00:42] <groggy> How can I disable the USB hid drivers?
[00:42] <Zerocool947> anto9us: Theres a bunch of files, but I don't know if they're automatically implemented
[00:42] <FAJ> gksu nautilus is refusing to start... does anyone have any ideas as to why?
[00:42] <darkfuzion> i think ill ust the guided feture to resize  or use WUBI
[00:42] <groggy> I've tried putting in a quirk entry, but it doesn't seem to work.
[00:42] <ActionParsnip> groggy: sudo rmmod <whatever>
[00:42] <Alastair_> hurray, i've officially removed the bloatvista from my pc :P from this day on there's only one way - the ubuntu way.. ^^
[00:42] <Zerocool947> anto9us: and I don't really know what to do with any of them
[00:42] <groggy> "Module is in use".
[00:42] <onetinsoldier> darkfuzion: roger
[00:42] <juhls> white-sheep, without the export it is local... export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/my-dir adds $HOME/my-dir to your path
[00:43] <groggy> I don't want it to start up, and I should be able to disable it in modprobe.d/
[00:43] <white-sheep> juhls -- Thanks -- I think I got it -- Basically I just type in -- export LOL=/home/chris/LOL
[00:43] <juhls> white-sheep, and makes it available to all shells it is global
[00:43] <darkfuzion> and i hopw that work the guided part because i hate to use wubi
[00:43] <groggy> I have:
[00:43] <groggy> options usbhid quirks=15a4:1001:0x0004
[00:43] <ActionParsnip> groggy: lsmod will show you whats loaded, you can remove whatever you wish
[00:44] <white-sheep> juhls -- Is that correct?  What I just said?  <_<
[00:44] <groggy> ActionParsnip: As I said, it refuses because it's in use.
[00:44] <juhls> white-sheep, it sets a variable called LOL with the path you stated.. Use a dollar sign to have it show its meaning
[00:44] <juhls> white-sheep, basically yeah
[00:44] <anto9us> Zerocool947, you should do some research through your favourite search engine, not everything comes with the documentation you can easily digest, a certain skill level might be required
[00:44] <groggy> $ modprobe -r hid
[00:44] <groggy> FATAL: Module hid is in use.
[00:44] <Ward1983> i'm following this: http://www.dit.upm.es/vnumlwiki/index.php/Tutorial#Some_Root_Privileges only root@host# su -pc 'uml_switch -tap tap0 -unix /var/run/vnuml/Net3.ctl < /dev/null > /dev/null &' vnuml does not work, it states /var/run/vnuml/Net3.ctl exists but could not be deleted, yet /var/run/vnuml doestn even exist! :s this is very confusing
[00:44] <white-sheep> juhls -- Thanks. :)
[00:44] <Ward1983> what can be wrong?
[00:44] <FloodBot1> Ward1983: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:44] <juhls> white-sheep, the linux documentation project has a howto on bash
[00:45] <groggy> My real question is: what's wrong with the quirk entry?
[00:45] <Ward1983> yeqh sure thqts flooding i guess... :s
[00:45] <juhls> white-sheep, and type bash in google and you get a lot of hits
[00:45] <Ward1983> explaining my problem == flooding :)
[00:46] <white-sheep> juhls -- I know -- I'm reading up on that.  I'm reading on docs on HowTo for MAC // but I know it's similar -- Unix.  Thank again.  :)
[00:46] <C0p3rn1c> white-sheep: for more info about the export command: http://www.justlinux.com/nhf/Shells/Configuring_the_Bash_Shell.html
[00:46] <juhls> white-sheep, if you are using the bash shell it should be basically the same
[00:46] <anto9us> Ward1983, waste of time arguing with/complaining to a bot, they're stubborn and insensitive in my experience
[00:47] <rrplay> mn: do have what you want  got a seperator after the start ?
[00:47] <onetinsoldier> darkfuzion: what did this laptop come with? vista?
[00:47] <darkfuzion> what sounds good is a Ubuntu Latte
[00:47] <Ward1983> anto9us, it was meant for the people that tell the bot to reply to a person that explains his problem
[00:47] <darkfuzion> Xp

[00:48] <anto9us> Ward1983, I believe floodbot has it's own automagical triggers

[00:48] <C0p3rn1c> clooluss: but you can also ask here if it's ubuntu related
[00:48] <darkfuzion> onetinsoldier: orrignally it came with vista basic but i installed xp pro

[00:49] <fourat> i need to limit internet access on a per-user account basis, so for example, i want to apply some firewall rules when user X is logged in ... anyone ?
[00:49] <FAJ> pastebin.com/m19a1ac56  This can't be good; when i try to gksu nautilus that is the output in terminal... That can't be right help please?
[00:49] <Ward1983> anto9us, doesnt matther, i just found it annoying thats all, i never had this before so something must have changed
[00:49] <onetinsoldier> darkfuzion: roger. you have a install disk for xp? if so, perhaps you could do what i do. make your own windows partition leaving plenty of room for linux partitions, then install windows, then you can make linux partitions without any need to worry about resizing. but as afar as i know resizing should work fine too
[00:49] <Zerocool947> anto9us: Sorry to keep bothering you, but I think I have a grasp at what I have to do. The ReadMe is telling me to make a daemon that starts at boot by creating an init file
[00:49] <juhls> nonickname2, no zero it out completely dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/(name of usb); then install the whole thing again....
[00:50] <nonickname2> ah, ok, thanks :)
[00:50] <nonickname2> will try, bbl
[00:50] <Zerocool947> anto9us: and gives me the few things that I have to set, but I don't know how to do it. Do yo uthink you could help me?
[00:50] <onetinsoldier> darkfuzion: --> but i installed xp pro  ..well? why didn't you leave room for linux partitions?
[00:50] <juhls> nonickname2, or you could do the first 512MBs of the stick... I tried that and it never worked for me... SO I just cleared the whole thing
[00:50] <FAJ> pastebin.com/m19a1ac56  This can't be good; when i try to gksu nautilus that is the output in terminal... That can't be right help please?
[00:50] <anto9us> fourat, I belive squidguard will do what you need
[00:50] <juhls> nonickname2, try your luck
[00:50] <darkfuzion> because someone said to install windows first
[00:51] <darkfuzion> and i tried to install linux first lol
[00:51] <Rdgcrs> I use ifup and ifdown to configure my network; wlan0 offers me internet ant eth0 network shared files. Why with this configuration I can't acces to Internet? http://paste.ubuntu.com/89580/
[00:51] <darkfuzion> but oh well i still can make a partition right?
[00:51] <onetinsoldier> darkfuzion: yes.. but when you install windows you can make you own windows partitions with the windows installer cd
[00:51] <darkfuzion> i know i asked that and they said no
[00:52] <anto9us> Zerocool947, I'm off to bed soon, you should do some research through your favourite search engine is my advice
[00:52] <onetinsoldier> darkfuzion: ?? hmm, i don't get that
[00:52] <onetinsoldier> darkfuzion: oh well. do what ya gotta do!
[00:52] <darkfuzion> but i can go and make a partion
[00:52] <FAJ> pastebin.com/m19a1ac56  This can't be good; when i try to gksu nautilus that is the output in terminal... That can't be right help please?
[00:52] <deepfriedsquirre> Where can I find the log of a terminal?
[00:52] <darkfuzion> with the cd
[00:52] <deepfriedsquirre> with stdout?
[00:52] <C0p3rn1c> darkfuzion: sure, if you left space, it shouldn't be such a big problem
[00:53] <darkfuzion> im sure i have alot of space
[00:53] <robert__> hey guys how would I make all the icons smaller for the system, applications, and places menu? I already have a 1680x1050 resolution and 66dpi
[00:53] <ActionParsnip> deepfriedsquirre: history
[00:53] <darkfuzion> cant you partion a drive with a partition maneger?
[00:53] <deepfriedsquirre> ~/.history?
[00:54] <C0p3rn1c> darkfuzion: yes you can
[00:54] <onetinsoldier> darkfuzion: i'm confused. now you're saying you did leave plenty of free space to make linux partitions on?
[00:54] <anto9us> Zerocool947, you should check that the init files haven't already been created for you, look in /etc/init.d
[00:54] <darkfuzion> no i can make free space for linux with the cd by making a parttition
[00:54] <C0p3rn1c> darkfuzion: did you do a manual or automatic partitioning ?
[00:54] <onetinsoldier> darkfuzion: ok... cool
[00:55] <darkfuzion> right it has a partion manager on the cd ill reboot my system and make a partition
[00:55] <Zerocool947> anto9us: thank you for pointing me in the right direction. The readme says I have to create them, I have some basic (read: very basic) programming experience, so might be able to do something
[00:55] <C0p3rn1c> darkfuzion: you can resize your partitions from a live cd, with a partition manager
[00:55] <darkfuzion> i can use the guided feture to make the partion right?????
[00:55] <C0p3rn1c> not sure about that though
[00:55] <C0p3rn1c> never tried it :)
[00:56] <C0p3rn1c> anyone else ?
[00:56] <lander2k2> can anyone tell me how to change runlevel in Ubuntu 8.10?
[00:56] <darkfuzion> i mean you can use the slide feture to resize
[00:56] <C0p3rn1c> darkfuzion: yeah, but you have to boot from a live cd
[00:57] <C0p3rn1c> darkfuzion: you can't resize a partition you are using
[00:57] <darkfuzion> i have the cd they sent
[00:57] <mn> rrplay: what is a separator?  That little line thing on the bar?
[00:57] <darkfuzion> so i can make partition from the live cd
[00:57] <dmulholland> hello, im trying to print multiple copies of something using lpr, does anyone know the flag? man lpr didn't tell me anything
[00:57] <mylogic> Is there a convenient way to reset ALL of my compiz settings to the default?
[00:57] <darkfuzion> ill just use Wubi
[00:58] <darkfuzion> im sure it has defualt
[00:58] <ActionParsnip> dmulholland: -Kcopies or -#copies
[00:58] <ActionParsnip> dmulholland: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/cgi-bin/manpage?lpr
[00:58] <kaiser10123> i changed my resolution now i can get to option to change cause panel is not visable
[00:58] <dmulholland> ill give that a shot, thanks ActionParsnip
[00:58]  * darkfuzion beat his head against sharp objects lol
[00:58] <dmulholland> http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/cgi-bin/manpage?lpr
[00:58] <kaiser10123> whats is command to get to resolution optin
[00:58] <rrplay> mn: jusst like in gnome a seperator in the panel
[00:59] <C0p3rn1c> darkfuzion: yes create a ntfs partion with GParted
[00:59] <C0p3rn1c> its a grafical partition manager
[00:59] <mn> rrplay: oh yeah I have that
[00:59] <lander2k2> can anyone tell me how to change runlevel in Ubuntu 8.10?
[00:59] <darkfuzion> so get Gparted to do a partion in windows?
[00:59] <rrplay> mn: still no good ?? or ok
[00:59] <adaptr> lander2k2: exactly the same way as any other linux distro
[00:59] <onetinsoldier> lander2k2: as root type  runlevel #  ..?
[00:59] <adaptr> lander2k2: telinit <runlevel>
[00:59] <ActionParsnip> !runlevel
[01:00] <rrplay> !init
[01:00] <onetinsoldier> doh! that's it.. telinit
[01:00] <rww> !upstart
[01:00] <deepfriedsquirre> I'm looking for the output of fsck I ran earlier - where can I find it?
[01:00] <C0p3rn1c> darkfuzion: boot from a live cd, launch GParted, use it to resize your partition to make room for a ntfs windows partion, create a ntfs partition, reboot, boot from the windows cd
[01:00] <adaptr> deepfriedsquirre: nowhere /
[01:00] <mn> rrplay: naw I can't figure out how to get this.  I run the shell script that is supposed to change the ubuntu button to the vista button.  it worked the first time, but isn't now
[01:00] <C0p3rn1c> darkfuzion: and then just install windows on the ntfs partion you created
[01:01] <kaiser10123> what is shortcut to resolution options in gnome
[01:01] <darkfuzion> ok
[01:01] <ActionParsnip> kaiser10123: do you have an nvidia gfx card?
[01:01] <deepfriedsquirre> adaptr: *gasp* Sure?
[01:01] <rww> kaiser10123: Alt-F2 to get to the Run Program box, then enter "gnome-display-properties"
[01:02] <dmulholland> ActionParsnip: If i want 15copies then i guess it should be lpr -15copies print.pdf?
[01:02] <[TiZ]> Can anyone help me move my mail from Evolution to Claws?
[01:02] <C0p3rn1c> darkfuzion: ok good luck
[01:02] <adaptr> deepfriedsquirre: unless you redirected its output to a file, yes
[01:02] <dmulholland> ActionParsnip: i'm working remotely so i need it to just work
[01:02] <robert__> how would I make all the icons smaller for the system, applications, and places menu? I already have a 1680x1050 resolution and 66dpi
[01:02] <ActionParsnip> dmulholland: from what I can gather: lpr -#15 print.pdf
[01:02] <onetinsoldier> kaiser10123: System --> Preferences --> Screen Resolution
[01:02] <rrplay> mn: those files may be to old for 8.10 sorry can't be of more help at the moment
[01:02] <deepfriedsquirre> adaptr: Oh no! Well thank you very much.
[01:02] <C0p3rn1c> darkfuzion: still there ?
[01:02] <dmulholland> ActionParsnip: ill give it a shot
[01:03] <[TiZ]> I guess I'll just re-download everything. :|
[01:03] <kaiser10123> onetinsoldier: i cant see my panel it is off screen
[01:03] <onetinsoldier> kaiser10123: all i saw was this -->  what is shortcut to resolution options in gnome
[01:04] <frejda62> tak kolik je tu čechů?
[01:04] <bazhang> !cz
[01:04] <caseheart> Onetinsoldier, are you still around?
[01:04] <kaiser10123> onetinsoldier: i mean an alt f2 text shortcut
[01:04] <C0p3rn1c> darkfuzion: after you install windows, windows will probebly reset the boot sector, so you'll have to fix it from the live cd and set it back to grub
[01:04] <onetinsoldier> caseheart: yes, hello. i'm here. what's up?

[01:08] <hey_joe> can anyone tell me why the newest alternate, and desktop cd won't function?  i believe it must be gnome... when i install with the alternate CD, i can login, but then it just hangs on the orange background.. mouse still works, the live CD, won't load the desktop unless in safe graphics mode..
[01:09] <hey_joe> what can i do here?
[01:09] <hey_joe> i know how to get to a failsafe terminal..
[01:09] <adaptr> lander2k2: in a console, do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop, then log off from yoru desktop
[01:09] <mn> rrplay: where should I do that?
[01:09] <ActionParsnip> hey_joe: did you md5 check the iso and verify the cd was consistant once burned?
[01:09] <hey_joe> is there a driver i must apt-get in order for gnome to work?
[01:09] <mewwyxmas> hi
[01:09] <hey_joe> ActionParsnip, yes I did indeed.
[01:09] <mewwyxmas> tcpdump -ni eth0 host localhost and <IP_ADDRESS> port 2049 <-- wont work.what is the exact syntax or parameter to listen the traffic from my pc to that ip connecting to port 2049 to and fro?
[01:09] <adaptr> hey_joe: gnome to work for what ?
[01:09] <rrplay> mn: where you got the build and suppoprt
[01:09] <lander2k2> adaptr: thx
[01:09] <ActionParsnip> hey_joe: good, thats one possibility out of the way
[01:09] <hey_joe> adaptr, i know its not gdm, cause i can login..
[01:09] <hey_joe> it must be a gnome startup script or something
[01:10] <ActionParsnip> hey_joe: you could try disabling things like dma / acpi
[01:10] <ActionParsnip> !bootoptions | hey_joe
[01:10] <hey_joe> ActionParsnip, did that as well..
[01:10] <chupy> hi i have a question how do i put in kde or install the mini icon in the bar to conect via wifi lan etc...
[01:10] <hey_joe> hrm
[01:10] <ActionParsnip> hey_joe: checked ram health and hard drive health?
[01:10] <hey_joe> ActionParsnip, yes..
[01:11] <[TiZ]> I can't get Claws Mail to download the messages on my GMail. Can anyone help?
[01:11] <hey_joe> again, it doesn't freeze, it just sits at orange backgorund after GDM login..
[01:11] <ActionParsnip> hey_joe: disabled unnecessary hardware in bios
[01:11] <caseheart> Does anyone know how I can force install a previous version of a package, and/or remove the one i have? I have ran proposed updates on pulseaudio, and it has stopped giving me sound, while seeming like everything is perfect. 8.10
[01:11] <hey_joe> ActionParsnip, I do that anyways....  and beside that.. safe graphics DOES work..
[01:11] <hey_joe> off the live CD that is..
[01:11] <ActionParsnip> hey_joe: can you boot to root console and create a new user, see if logging in with that user works ok
[01:11] <hey_joe> ActionParsnip, did that too..
[01:12] <rww> caseheart: I don't know how to do it from the terminal, but Synaptic can do it with Package > Force Version...
[01:12] <hey_joe> is there a "generic" driver i can try in xorg.conf?
[01:12] <sFEARs> is there an official open office channel?
[01:12] <ActionParsnip> hey_joe: tried upgrading your system from root console?
[01:12] <chupy> hi i have a question how do i put in kde or install the mini icon in the bar to conect via wifi lan etc...
[01:12] <Starnestommy> sFEARs: #openoffice.org
[01:12] <hey_joe> ActionParsnip, i did set a root password, login, and do apt-get update
[01:12] <sFEARs> nice.. thanks
[01:13] <hey_joe> to no avail, is there another tag to update all packages instead of just the source list?
[01:13] <rww> sFEARs: for most stuff, #openoffice.org. There's a full list on http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/IRC_Communication
[01:13] <ActionParsnip> hey_joe: oh dear, enabling the root account is not a good idea
[01:13] <hey_joe> ActionParsnip, it doesn't matter, the machine is not connected to the network.. i was just testing..
[01:14] <hey_joe> ActionParsnip, is there a way to update all installed packages with apt-get if I was to connect it to the network?
[01:14] <ActionParsnip> hey_joe: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:14] <hey_joe> ActionParsnip, did that already as well..
[01:14] <ActionParsnip> hey_joe: will set your xorg to defaults
[01:14] <hey_joe> installs the safe graphics .conf, but that even fails..
[01:14] <hey_joe> hrm
[01:14] <Starnestommy> hey_joe: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[01:14] <hey_joe> sweet
[01:15] <hey_joe> Starnestommy, that will update the source.list, and all installed packages?
[01:15] <ActionParsnip> hey_joe: i'd also add: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[01:15] <mn> rrplay: ah mk
[01:15] <chupy> i want to change to open suse how do i export all things?
[01:15] <Starnestommy> hey_joe: that will update the list of available packages and upgrade all the installed packages to the newset version in the repositories
[01:15] <hey_joe> Starnestommy, thank you so much.
[01:16] <hey_joe> thanks everyone.

[01:21] <mankash> How to set the environment variable through sh script?
[01:21] <tgblb> PeoplesAdvocate, Try making apache use a different port. If it works with the different port and not 80, it's most likely blocked.

[01:22] <rrplay> mn: if you had it working before it could be compiz

[01:22] <onetwoth1> Whenever I try to dualboot windows XP and Ubuntu, I can never get the boot loader both GRUB and the microsoft one to indefinitely recognize the other operating system.

When I restarted the machine after the one time I did get Windows to boot from GRUB it was no longer on the GRUB menu.  I've tried all the guides I can find re
[01:22] <ellis> Ok. I'm at the alsa-utils file. What should I edit?
[01:23] <ActionParsnip> frojnd: you could use 3 sweeps, 1 set ownership to root *.avi, then set ownership to root for *.srt, then delete recursively as user and the files will not be removed
[01:23] <Jack_Sparrow> onetwoth1 are you mixing ide and sata drives?
[01:23] <ActionParsnip> frojnd: i'd make a small test folder to test
[01:23] <ozgurgerilla> Starnestommy: ok, well the laptop is Acer Aspire one and ubuntu is the latest version and the wireless don't work because of drivers I think.. I tried the tutorial from google but still doesn't work.
[01:23] <ActionParsnip> frojnd: you will then need to set the owner back to your username
[01:23] <ellis> ozgurgerilla: Which card?
[01:23] <onetwoth1> Jack_Sparrow no
[01:24] <cpp32> ;

[01:25] <ozgurgerilla> ok thanks ActionParsnip
[01:25] <crimsun> ellis: intrepid? if so, are you using pulseaudio? if you're using pulseaudio, do you have to kill and restart pulseaudio before sound is audible again?
[01:26] <PeoplesAdvocate> ozgurgerilla: do you have an option of installing restricted drivers for the card?
[01:26] <Jack_Sparrow> ActionParsnip Find Network Card Chipset:  "sudo lshw -C network"   in a terminal it will show the networking card/chipset   will also work.. :)

[01:30] <onetwoth1> anyone have a suggested solution to my problem?

[01:46] <onetwoth1> Anyone here good with setting up a dualboot system? (XP and Ubuntu)
[01:46] <eseven73> masque7: hrm that site got my lamp up in 15 mins
[01:46] <lander2k2> onetinsoldier: I'm not sure what the session manager is - gdm
[01:46] <veloc1ty> i had the same "issue" and after an hour troubleshooting a friend of mine told me that it's working :P
[01:46] <CaptainMorgan> I wouldn't upgrade to 8.10 though - on the server, you'll be supported a lot longer on 8.04
[01:46] <CaptainMorgan> LTS
[01:46] <masque7> yeah i know apache's index.html file resides in /var/
[01:46] <lander2k2> onetinsoldier: I'm running gnome - is that gdm?
[01:46] <dmole> onetwoth1: install XP then Ubuntu
[01:47] <masque7> just wondering how i can upload my own stuff via WinSCP
[01:47] <w3wsrmn> dmole: JFS seems to fit your conditions
[01:47] <mickinator> like what i want to know is if say i clicked on a pdf it opens up pdfview, but how does it know to open that up?
[01:47] <onetinsoldier> lander2k2: yes
[01:47] <mn> lander2k2:  Do you have any other desktop environment installed?
[01:47] <masque7> ((i've got LAMP set up and working - main reason was wanting to use torrentflux so i don't wanan break anything))
[01:47] <CaptainMorgan> mickinator, it's called "preferred applications"
[01:47] <CaptainMorgan> System -> Prefs/Admin
[01:48] <onetwoth1> dmole: I did that but I couldn't boot XP after installing Ubuntu.  It said something was corrupted, NTLDR I believe.
[01:48] <dmole> w3wsrmn: wikipedia did not have it marked as resizeable I'll go have a look
[01:48] <lander2k2> mn: no, just gnome as far as I know - I have Ubuntu 8.10 installed and I haven't installed any other desktop environment
[01:48] <w3wsrmn> dmole: It is resizable
[01:48] <eseven73> masque7: ok sorry i thought you just needed to get lamp installed...just keep asking like every 5 mins someone will get to you eventually :)
[01:48] <mn> lander2k2: then yes, gdm would be your display manager
[01:48] <mickinator> preferred applications isnt what i want
[01:49] <mickinator> unless theres a generic command to open files?
[01:49] <lander2k2> mn: k, thx
[01:49] <mickinator> thanks by the by though
[01:49] <mn> np.  glad to help
[01:49] <dmole> onetwoth1: that's odd did you get that after booting to grub?
[01:49] <anom01y> if I copy files to a floppy disk can I run that disk in windows ???
[01:49] <mickinator> /etc/mime.types?
[01:50] <dmole> w3wsrmn: I'll change the wiki page then :)
[01:50] <anto9us> mickinator, right click the file, select properties, open with
[01:50] <onetwoth1> dmole: yeah it had Ubuntu and XP on the menu and when i selected XP it threw that error.
[01:50] <anom01y> ActionParsnip: do you know how to mount / copy files to a floppy disk in ubuntu ?
[01:50] <mickinator> im writing my own file manager
[01:50] <mrpockets> There really is no dependable way of getting an .avi to a an encoded DVD is there?

[01:50] <baz_> hi folks... just installed ubuntu on an external drive. I made sure to change the grub location in 'advanced' before clicking install. Now i am having problems loading my vista install. I searched the forums and google and nothing seems to address what i am seeing... any thoughts?
[01:50] <onetwoth1> dmole: its a 64-bit system if that makes any difference.
[01:51] <eseven73> !op | Administrador
[01:51] <anom01y> yes /dev/fd0, but using mount /dev/fd0 does not work
[01:51] <zrak> i have hp 550 notebook, i have dual boot ubuntu/win xp, and i installed ext2fs on xp, and when i open the ubuntu partition nothing is displayed, like it's empty, doesn someone has a clue, what can the problem be?
[01:51] <anom01y> ActionParsnip: you there ?
[01:51] <ActionParsnip> anom01y: yes
[01:51] <dmole> onetwoth1: this is fixable without a reinstall on a 32 bit system not sure if 64 makes a difference
[01:52] <mn> mickinator: what are you writing your manager in?  C++?
[01:52] <ActionParsnip> anom01y: if you run sudo fdisk -l does it show
[01:52] <ActionParsnip> !paste | anom01y
[01:52] <onetwoth1> dmole: how do you fix it?
[01:52] <baz_> hi neaai, thanks again for the help yesterday
[01:52] <ActionParsnip> anom01y: paste the output of the command to there
[01:52] <mickinator> mn: Haskell
[01:52] <frojnd> This is a nightmare. All i'm trying to do is to write a simple script that extract from multiple *.r01 *.r03,.. files into one file and than delete those *.r01 *.r02 files and I cant :S
[01:52] <mn> mickinator: oh, cool
[01:53] <lander2k2> onetinsoldier: thanks for the tip - gdm confirmed
[01:53] <anom01y> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.ca/1290513
[01:53] <mickinator> mn: yep tis gonna be very hard!
[01:53] <onetinsoldier> lander2k2: yw
[01:53] <zrak> ActionParsnip: do you have idea about my problem?
[01:53] <mickinator> mn: but worth it
[01:53] <ActionParsnip> !rar | frojnd
[01:53] <Ward1983> does anyone know much about sockets? (its a ton to explain so i ask first if there's anyone who might be able to help)
[01:53] <mn> mickinator: sounds tough.  why are you doing it?
[01:53] <xai> in hardy, I can't update with the synaptic pm.. Complains about localhost:8080 cant connect
[01:54] <ActionParsnip> anom01y: ok its not outputted there
[01:54] <frojnd> ActionParsnip: I know what rar is... I'm trying to use it in a command line...
[01:54] <mickinator> mn: why not, challenging project, hasnt been done fully before
[01:55] <frojnd> command unrar e * by itself works but if I join it with: unrar e *.rar && rm *.r[0-9][0-9] *.sfv Than I get a message: No files to extract WHy is that ?
[01:55] <enovativ> hello to all
[01:55] <enovativ> does anyone know how to use linux to convert RAW drive to either FAT32 or NTFS and preserver the data that is on the driver ?
[01:55] <mn> mickinator: oh, well good luck.  is the project open source or proprietary?

[01:56] <CaptainMorgan> anyone upgrade to flash 10 and not having problems?
[01:56] <CaptainMorgan> I can't downgrade back ... so I've upgraded to 10 and now flash doesn't work
[01:56] <onetinsoldier> CaptainMorgan: yes
[01:57] <anto9us> CaptainMorgan, yes
[01:57] <mn> mickinator: ah.  well, best of luck with it :)
[01:57] <mickinator> cheers

[01:57] <dkam> Does anyone know how to make monit send email with a FQDN?
[01:58] <onetwoth1> dmole: do you know how to fix that error?
[01:58] <enovativ> can anyone help me convert a RAW drive to NTFS using linux ?
[01:58] <frojnd> ActionParsnip: what if I don't wanna write a name of file, what if there is a huge number of this name of file ?
[01:58] <enovativ> and preserve the data...
[01:58] <ActionParsnip> frojnd: use tab completion
[01:58] <dmole> onetwoth1:  copy the ntldr off some other windows box
[01:59] <Spikius> anyone alive? :))
[01:59] <onetwoth1> dmole: would the 64-bit version be different than the 32-bit version?  Cause i only have one 64-bit machine.
[02:00] <dmole> onetwoth1:  not sure you could also  boot from your windows XP cd. log into your windows installation. type "fixboot". if your xp drive is not c:, type "fixboot x:" wher x: is your drive.
[02:00] <enovativ> can anyone help me convert a RAW drive to NTFS using linux ?
[02:00] <enovativ> and preserve the data...
[02:00] <Davekong> how do I get openbox to use the .xml file in my home directory? obconf is trying to access the one under /root and I get errors when trying to customize
[02:00] <dmole> Spikius: look dead people on IRC is just not cool
[02:01] <CaptainMorgan> onetinsoldier, I got 64-bit, I can't find that available on adobe... only x86
[02:01] <tsuna27> I need help what does this mean "Click the Static button and change the IP Address to an address that's outside the dynamically assigned range of your network. This will ensure your iPhone is always contactable at the same address for syncing."
[02:01] <Spikius> http://www.paste.lt/paste/a7578373feb1635ec21931574b73b652 >> anyone knows why this script works on some video files, and on some of them it doesnt?
[02:01] <onetinsoldier> CaptainMorgan: hang on and i'll see if i can find it
[02:01] <tsuna27> what does an IP dynamically assigned range of you network mean how can I choose one????
[02:02] <enovativ> tsuna27 : whatever your DHCP range is on router..you must make the IP address "static" and use a ip address outside that range
[02:02] <Davekong> tsuna27, your router probably has some dhcp setting which uses some range of ip addresses you need to choose one outside that range
[02:02] <baz_> i would like to install ubuntu on an external hd and have it so that if my external hd is plugged in it loads ubuntu and if not, vista loads without even knowing about my external hd - is this possible, if so where would grub go?
[02:02] <Spikius> tsuna27, it means that dhcp server auto assigns IP adress to you, to your computer
[02:02] <onetinsoldier> CaptainMorgan: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html
[02:02] <tsuna27> spikius: how can i find the numbers
[02:02] <enovativ> for example is you have 50 address set for DHCP on your router, and your ip address range starts at <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:03] <enovativ> then your range is from <IP_ADDRESS> - <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:03] <enovativ> so you could use a "static" address of <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:03] <tsuna27> so i can pick a random number
[02:03] <tsuna27> and it will work
[02:03] <enovativ> it sould
[02:03] <enovativ> should
[02:03] <Rillaspora> http://www.sexy-sarah.info/?uid=217952
[02:04] <iratik> tsuna27: also .. don't pick your router's ip ...  the router ip is usually out of the dhcp range for obvious reasons.... usually the only other static you have to worry about
[02:04] <enovativ> as long as it is not in the DHCP range
[02:04] <asparatu> hello, i have a ibm x41 table pc and I am trying to get the styles to work and i can
[02:04] <iratik> Trying to upgrade from dapper to hardy - Getting error message "installArchives() failed .. /etc/fstab.pre-uuid already exists"   .. Googled the issue couldn't really find a quick resolution... anyone have any helpful hints  ?
[02:04] <Rillaspora> http://www.sexy-sarah.info/?uid=217952
[02:04] <Rillaspora> http://www.sexy-sarah.info/?uid=217952
[02:04] <baz_> what does it mean if i  boot and all my computer says is "grub" - there are no opions nnothing to do, it just shows a black screen and tthe word "grub"
[02:04] <enovativ> and you do not go over the requirements of the subset mask
[02:04] <asparatu> hello, i have a ibm x41 table pc and I am trying to get the styles to work and i can not
[02:04] <FloodBot1> Rillaspora: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:04] <tsuna27> iratik i choose 192 168 2 321 and now safari does not work
[02:04] <enovativ> so as i said before <IP_ADDRESS> will do fine
[02:05] <enovativ> or you  could do <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:05] <CaptainMorgan> onetinsoldier, thanks! unpacking it gives me a .so file... how do I install this? isn't this a library file?
[02:05] <Spikius> ok so there is non bash scripters around? :(

[02:06] <tux9778> hi who created the ubuntu1501 blog?
[02:06] <zrak> enovativ: do you know someone who knows about ext2fs under windows?
[02:06] <onetinsoldier> CaptainMorgan: first..the most important thing you can do, is make sure you don't any any flavor or kind of flash on your system
[02:06] <enovativ> zrak : sorry sir i do not, maybe i should research that way i can be of more better help
[02:06] <Spikius> zrak, used it couple of times, first time everything was fine
[02:06] <CaptainMorgan> onetinsoldier, ya, I removed them all
[02:06] <Spikius> second time, crappy...
[02:07] <CaptainMorgan> onetinsoldier, I've been trying them one at a time, deleting them when they don't work
[02:07] <Spikius> second time wiundows just said that disks where not formated properly and asked me to format them
[02:07] <zrak> Spikius: i can mount the ext3 partition but i when i browse it i get empty partition
[02:07] <CaptainMorgan> onetinsoldier, the only one that came sorta close was swfdec, but it was like a bad version of adobe flash
[02:07] <CaptainMorgan> worked, but not nicely
[02:07] <dmole> w3wsrmn: still looking for doc on how to shrink JFS
[02:07] <zrak> Spikius: i doesn't ask me to format it now
[02:07] <Spikius> zrak, well ext3 driver for win is ekperimental for now..
[02:07] <iratik> You guys get spammed in here?
[02:08] <onetinsoldier> CaptainMorgan: ok...  one sec
[02:08] <enovativ> can anyone help me convert a RAW drive to NTFS using linux ?
[02:08] <enovativ> can anyone help me convert a RAW drive to NTFS using linux ?
[02:08] <zrak> Spikius: can it be a problem about SATA drives or no?t
[02:08] <CaptainMorgan> !gparted | enovativ,
[02:08] <enovativ> and preserve the data...
[02:08] <dmole> enovativ: what is a RAW drive?
[02:08] <Spikius> theoricly maybe.. i have ata disk
[02:08] <ActionParsnip> tsuna27: if you have 6 pcs who use the first 1 - 6 ips (192.168.0.x etc) then set it o something like .200 and you'll be ok
[02:08] <Lunar_Lamp> !iplayer
[02:09] <onetinsoldier> CaptainMorgan: mv the file to here --> /usr/lib/firefox/plugins    ...if you don't have a plugins dir in there... make one
[02:09] <enovativ> dmole : i have a external drive that once was used on a linux box, and i then used it on a new install linux box, and for reason when i put it back on the windows box i could not acces anything
[02:09] <iratik> ActionParsnip: each of you guys have told him a different subnet ! ... one person told him use 192.1.168 ... you told him 192.168.0.  and he used <IP_ADDRESS> ... lol
[02:09] <ActionParsnip> iratik: i was making an example only
[02:09] <enovativ> thru research and a few utilities i found out i had a RAW drive..whatever that means
[02:10] <enovativ> so i am trying to find a way to convert it back to NTFS
[02:10] <ActionParsnip> iratik: we dont know his network address
[02:10] <hololight> Anyone notice a high Python cpu load when using the sysmonitor screenlet?
[02:10] <baz_> whats the best irc client fro ubuntu/linux
[02:10] <enovativ> i thought i read somewhere it could be done in linux
[02:10] <iratik> i know... but he might not comprehend that your example does not factor in his network settings and he might take it literally
[02:10] <Spikius> enovativ, the only way is to format partition
[02:10] <dmole> enovativ: probably means it can't find the partition
[02:10] <CaptainMorgan> onetinsoldier, done... a simple restart of firefox and it should now work, ya?
[02:10] <ActionParsnip> iratik: so we made examples with the most used network address based on a class C network, we didnt have enough info
[02:10] <Spikius> you cant convert ext3 to ntfs
[02:10] <baz_> i am using pidgin now and i like its cleanliness but not too many features
[02:10] <onetinsoldier> CaptainMorgan: yes
[02:11] <dmole> enovativ: you will need to fix partition
[02:11] <ActionParsnip> baz_: there is no best ANYTHING in life
[02:11] <eseven73> xchat or irssi baz_
[02:11] <ActionParsnip> baz_: its all preference and taste
[02:11] <dmole> enovativ: was it ntfs before?
[02:11] <baz_> eseven73: thanks
[02:11] <baz_> actionparsnip: thhats not true
[02:11] <caseheart> Anyone have any success getting a creative vf0350 webcam working with 8.10>?
[02:11] <ActionParsnip> baz_: theres no best irc client, try a few and decide whats best for your needs. One mans best is another mans worst
[02:11] <dmole> enovativ: you CAN recover
[02:11] <CaptainMorgan> onetinsoldier, didn't work :(
[02:12] <ActionParsnip> baz_: tell me something where there is a clean cut "best"
[02:12] <CaptainMorgan> cleared cache too.. in case that might've had something to do with it
[02:12] <onetinsoldier> CaptainMorgan: hang on.. i had that wrong. sorry... close out Firefox
[02:12] <tarelerul1> What kind of hardware specs do you need to run the 3d cube and all the rest of the effects ?
[02:12] <CaptainMorgan> onetinsoldier, k
[02:12] <ActionParsnip> baz_: not just computers, it can be ANYTHING
[02:13] <Spikius> tarelerul1, my pc with gf fx 5500 runs it perfectly
[02:13] <onetinsoldier> CaptainMorgan: it goes here....  --> ~/.mozilla/plugins
[02:13] <Ceddie> Anyone pls help??? when i typed on terminal "ls" it has an error
[02:13] <onetinsoldier> CaptainMorgan: so just mv the plugins directory down one dir
[02:13] <baz_> actionparsnip: you will be surprised how similar human beings are, we are all organic, we all have 2 eyes and we all think pamela anderson is hot - now if u want to argue between pamela and gizelle we can split hairs but you are certainly not going to tell me try looking at rosie odonell
[02:13] <Spikius> so i guess anything beyond gf 4 mx works fine
[02:13] <eseven73> tarelerul1: i had my cube running pretty well on a 5200 nvidia (that card is like 4 years old)

[02:15] <tarelerul1> Thanks , Spikius, and eseven73 for the infro.  I have seen those youtube videos that look great ,but never been able to config the advanced effects to work. I wonder if it was mater of configing or  maybe my hardware would not do it
[02:15] <CaptainMorgan> onetinsoldier, success!!!
[02:15] <CaptainMorgan> thank you!!
[02:15] <dmole> Ceddie: sounds bad but I don't know what's up with that
[02:15] <CaptainMorgan> cheers mate
[02:15] <onetinsoldier> CaptainMorgan: yeah! w00oties
[02:15] <Ceddie> dmole: thanks
[02:15] <baz_> actionparsnip: fine maybe "best" wasnt a good word but i should have said "good" - i think anyone can agree that xchat is better than a client in alpha being developed by an elementary school
[02:15] <ActionParsnip> baz_: using irc clients as an example, there arelots or clients, each has different feature sets. If someone suggests a client as "best" but it doesnt have the functionality you want then it is not best, yet smoeone said it was the "best"
[02:15] <sloopy> baz_, i prefer Patricia Richardson over pamela or gizelle

[02:15] <ActionParsnip> baz_: thats an opinion
[02:15] <baz_> actionparsnip: but at the same time u can see what i am trying to get at trather than arguing semantics
[02:15] <CaptainMorgan> hey, I'm good. thanks again

[02:16] <eseven73> tarelerul1: i think 9 times out of 10, if and as long as linux recognizes your video card and the drivers made nicey nicey with linux, then you should have no probs with 3d stuff
[02:16] <dmole> Ceddie: you could try upgrading or using a rootkit checker to check for problems also check your hardware (RAM + HD)
[02:16] <sloopy> Ceddie, 'type which ls'
[02:16] <ActionParsnip> baz_: im just educating that best is none existant but i understand what you are asking
[02:16] <ActionParsnip> !irc | baz_
[02:16] <CaptainMorgan> Ceddie, check your .bash_aliases file, could be that your ls command linked to the wrong command
[02:17] <ActionParsnip> baz_: try a few, see which you prefer then run with that one
[02:17] <Ceddie> pls tell me how I just new
[02:17] <baz_> actionparsnip: thanks man, just wanted to fasttrack that processyou know
[02:17] <CaptainMorgan> Ceddie, more .bashrc | grep ls; more .bash_aliases | grep ls
[02:17] <sloopy> Ceddie, in a terminal (where you type ls) type 'which ls' it should respond with /bin/ls
[02:17] <baz_> actionparsnip: get some good reco's from fine people
[02:18] <Ceddie> CaptainMorgan: I just trying to install the driver of my cam
[02:18] <ActionParsnip> baz_: i personally use pidgin but its only because I use so many of the other protocols it suppots so it seems silly to me to install a seperate irc client if what I already have can do it
[02:18] <Ceddie> ok , nothing happend
[02:18] <Letter_Z> My iPod keeps demounting, I tried it on other computers and OS and it works fine, but whenever I try and get it to mount on Ubuntu, it mounts for 5 minutes and then demounts, its really annoying because I'm trying to use it as a flash disk to transfer files from an old laptop
[02:18] <Ceddie> CaptainMorgan: nothing happens
[02:18] <ActionParsnip> !ircclient
[02:19] <tarelerul1> eseven73, configing it and know what all those fetures do is one of the hard parts.  I think it is like samba in the repect . great if you get it working ,but if it don't just work then hard pressed to figure out why .
[02:19] <enovativ_> i just tried using gparted to solve my problem and no good
[02:19] <baz_> actionparsnip: are u typing my name before each msg or clicking on it somewhere and it appears?
[02:19] <ActionParsnip> does anyone know the factoid to list irc clients?
[02:19] <enovativ_> gparted does not see external drives
[02:19] <enovativ_> unless i did someting wrong
[02:19] <ActionParsnip> baz_: i'm tab completing your name
[02:19] <ActionParsnip> !tab | baz_
[02:19] <eseven73> tarelerul1: well if linux really likes your card you wont have to configure it :P  hehe
[02:19] <baz_> ActionParsnip: haha no way! thats exactly why i was thinking of getting another client - thanks dude!
[02:20] <ActionParsnip> baz_: yeah man, most do that
[02:20] <eseven73> tarelerul1: what card do you have anyways?
[02:20] <ActionParsnip> baz_: doesnt do it for factoids though which would be really handy
[02:20] <enovativ_> i just tried using gparted to solve my problem and no good
[02:20] <enovativ_> gparted does not see external drives
[02:20] <enovativ_> unless i did someting wrong

[02:21] <lord_hypnos> enovativ whitch one?
[02:21] <ActionParsnip> lord_hypnos: i'd check your config for ip. If you have set a static ip, it may be outside the subnet mask of your lan and fail
[02:21] <eseven73> rww ok, i guess i missed that one :P
[02:22] <enovativ_> lord_hypnos: if opera not working for you use firefox or Konqueror
[02:22] <Aayush_> i remove some services from start up at run level 5 using sysv-rc-config, but still it starts at start up ... any  solutions
[02:22] <tarelerul1> eseven73,  not on the system I have Ubuntu installed on .  On Parents computer.   It is nvidia somethign  at home
[02:22] <lord_hypnos> I tried both firefox and opera
[02:22] <lord_hypnos> and yes I do use a static IP
[02:22] <enovativ_> lord_hypnos: what type of router do you have
[02:22] <xxuriahxx> need help with amarok 2 (linux)  - im looking for the button or command that actually syncs the ipod or media device - where is it or how do i sync
[02:22] <Ward1983> is there anyone who knows how sockets work?
[02:22] <eseven73> tarelerul1: well generally nvidia is the easiest to work with
[02:22] <ozgurgerilla> Hi all, I'm still having problems with my wireless card
[02:22] <lord_hypnos> its calles arris cm450b, can't find anything on the internet about it enovativ
[02:22] <Ceddie> anyone pls help me I got error when i typed on terminal 'ls'
[02:23] <rww> Aayush_: you should be removing them from runlevel 2 instead. Ubuntu uses Upstart, which uses 2 instead of 5.

[02:24] <enovativ_> lord_hypnos: let me check on it..but you be able to do : http://<IP_ADDRESS> in any browser and it will ask for login/password
[02:24] <Ceddie> No one seems to help me...... :(
[02:24] <sloopy> Ceddie, i asked a question, answer it, it would help

[02:24] <tarelerul1>  eseven73, the easy system I have ever had to work with is my hp laptop. The one with nvida has never work right all the way . after getting the wireless card working it was all pretty easy.  The 3d cube thing has worked ,but never seem to be work it.  Plus never read much on how to get all those wow effects . just basic install
[02:24] <sloopy> Ceddie, in a terminal (where you type ls) type 'which ls' it should respond with /bin/ls
[02:25] <ozgurgerilla> Can someone help me resolve my wireless problem. I have an Atheros wireless and it still doesn't seem to work
[02:25] <Letter_Z> My iPod keeps demounting, I tried it on other computers and OS and it works fine, but whenever I try and get it to mount on Ubuntu, it mounts for 5 minutes and then demounts, its really annoying because I'm trying to use it as a flash disk to transfer files from an old laptop.

[02:26] <rww> xxuriahxx: if you don't get any help here, try #kubuntu. They know more about KDE stuff (amarok2 is a KDE app) than us :)
[02:26] <sebastian> for a simple  XP Home 32bit and  Ubuntu Ibex 64bit dual boot,   should I go for the desktop CD or alternate, by the sounds of it with alternate I can encrypt the partition and get LVM, but  I don't need the partition encrypted, and I guess I won't really benefit from LVM either
[02:26] <xxuriahxx> ok thanks
[02:26] <rww> sebastian: desktop CD will be able to do it just fine
[02:26] <ActionParsnip> !neon | xxuriahxx
[02:26] <rww> !dualboot | sebastian
[02:26] <ActionParsnip> xxuriahxx: /j #amarok.neon
[02:26] <ozgurgerilla> Can someone help me resolve my wireless problem. I have an Atheros wireless and it still doesn't seem to work
[02:26] <sebastian> rww:  are there any other advantages to  the alternate CD than what I just mentioned?   or is that it and everything else is just text based?
[02:27] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: did madwifi not fly?
[02:27] <xxuriahxx> thanks
[02:27] <ozgurgerilla> ActionParsnip: Hey, I cannot install it. How can I check if the current one is ok?
[02:28] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: lshw -C network
[02:28] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: it will have a driver
[02:28] <baz_> ActionParsnip: is there a way to have pidgin flash or notify me if my name is used somewhere?
[02:28] <bastid_raZor> lord_hypnos; in the top right you'll see a dual monitor icon.. right click it and then connection information. what is your IP?
[02:28] <ActionParsnip> baz_: it goes frmo green to orange in system tray
[02:29] <ozgurgerilla> ActionParsnip: ok it did some things and stoped
[02:29] <baz_> ActionParsnip: ah
[02:29] <sshirley> Can anyone tell me how to make sure a driver loads all the time? If I do a modprobe, I can load the driver. Next time I boot, the driver (ath5k) is no longer loaded.
[02:29] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: sudo iwlist scan will also show wireless accesspoints if they are not hiding ssid
[02:29] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: can you pastebin the output
[02:29] <ozgurgerilla> im not on that computer though
[02:29] <bastid_raZor> sshirley; you could add the module to /etc/modules
[02:29] <rww> i hate my wireless card so much >.>
[02:29] <sshirley> I'm glad everyone is talking about wireless cards. I'm having a problem getting my Atheros based card to run.
[02:30] <ozgurgerilla> rww: tell me about it.
[02:30] <sloopy> my wireless card was plug and play
[02:30] <bastid_raZor> !atheros
[02:30] <ozgurgerilla> ActionParsnip: don't you want parts of it
[02:30]  * rww needs to invest in one of those wireless thingies you plug into an ethernet port, 'cause his ethernet card works just fine
[02:30] <sshirley> bastid_raZor: Thanks!
[02:30] <ActionParsnip> sshirley: add its name to /etc/modules
[02:31] <ozgurgerilla> sshirley: Atheros is pain in the an*s
[02:31] <sshirley> I'm getting a 'Access Point: Not associated" problem
[02:31] <sloopy> i use a atheros based card for my home wireless router
[02:31] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: mine works out of the box
[02:32] <sshirley> ozgurgerilla: I've been noticing.  I am better of using NDISWrapper instead of the madwifi drivers?
[02:32] <ozgurgerilla> ActionParsnip: do you need that description to help me isn't there any other way?
[02:32] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: does the scan show wirelesses?
[02:32] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: if it does, we are done
[02:33] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: sudo iwlist scan
[02:33] <ozgurgerilla> ActionParsnip: nope, it shows; lo, eth0 and pan0
[02:33] <sshirley> ActionParsnip: I type that same command and it will scan and find networks. But I still can't connect.
[02:34] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: did you get madwifi-tools installed?
[02:34] <doodle77> sshirley: yes
[02:34] <ActionParsnip> sshirley: install wifi-radar, you can configure connections with taht
[02:34] <ozgurgerilla> ActionParsnip: im not sure how to do that. is it lshw -C network?
[02:34] <sshirley> doodle77: Yes I AM better of using NDISWrapper?
[02:34] <doseryder> The LiveCD (Intrepid Ibex (8.10)) failed to load the GNOME Desktop Environment with the proper settings and the screen is basically black.  Note that I'm using a ATI HD2600 XT (AGP) with a LCD monitor with 2560x1600 native resolution
[02:35] <doodle77> sshirley: yep
[02:35] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: you can use your install cd as a repo and run sudo apt-get install madwifi-tools
[02:35] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: if you can get a wired connection you can install the latest one on the repos as well as install the latest kernel / system updates which also can help
[02:35] <doseryder> Prior to Gutsy Gibbon, When I do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:35] <sshirley> ActionParsnip: Can I use wifi-radar from the consolde or is it X-based?
[02:36] <ActionParsnip> sshirley: its x based
[02:36] <doseryder> there is a option setting screen which prompts to for desired screen modes (resolution settings)
[02:36] <doseryder> but now its not available
[02:36] <sshirley> AP: This is a headless server
[02:36] <ActionParsnip> sshirley: if you want cli based stuffs, sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
[02:36] <ActionParsnip> sshirley: you can configure it from there
[02:36] <ActionParsnip> sshirley: if you use wpa, you need the wpasupplicant installing
[02:36] <doseryder> I just want to reconfigure GNOME to run at lower settings so I can install this thing
[02:36] <doseryder> can someone give me some pointers?
[02:36] <fryd> who here is a network adim?
[02:37] <fryd> as a job
[02:37] <ActionParsnip> sshirley: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/
[02:37] <doseryder> Note that I still have access to the terminal by doing alt+ctrl+f1
[02:37] <ActionParsnip> fryd: i am
[02:37] <rww> fryd: if you have a support question, go ahead and ask it. If you're making general conversation, #ubuntu-offtopic would be a much better place for it :)
[02:37] <sshirley> AP: I don't think I use WPA.  When a new media is mounted (inside /media) the icons on my desktop go away never to return (until logout/in) .. ideas on what might cause this? (Plug in a USB icons blink or vanish, umount a usb or /dev/sd(x) drive and icons flash or vanis) ..
[02:39] <ActionParsnip> sshirley: the yuo should be ok, you probably use wep which you can also specify in that file, remember to: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart to apply the new settings
[02:39] <doseryder> Let me rephrase the question, How do you reconfigure your Screen mode settings in the terminal???
[02:39] <ozgurgerilla> ActionParsnip: I've downloaded the madwifi-0.9.4 to my usb and nw its on the laptop.. in which directory do I type install cd and sudo apt-get install madwifi-tools
[02:39] <exodus_ms> !xorg
[02:39] <YamiFrankc> Hi,someone can help me to get my wifi card to work?
[02:39] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: is it a deb file?
[02:40] <ActionParsnip> YamiFrankc: run lspci and it will tell you what wifi card you have, you can websearch from there
[02:40] <lord_hypnos> so anyone can help me with my router problem? my ip is <IP_ADDRESS> and it's static. my routers IP should be <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:40] <tsuna27> i got thos error while trying to download ipod-convenience: E: ipod-convenience: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[02:40] <ozgurgerilla> ActionParsnip: how do I check?
[02:41] <YamiFrankc> I have an atheros,also i did a lot of thing i found on internet,but none works
[02:41] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: copy the file to your home dir and run ls in the folder
[02:42] <tsuna27> what does this mean? "i got thos error while trying to download ipod-convenience: E: ipod-convenience: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1"
[02:42] <kudar> ActionParsnip: can i get dist-upgrade while get-upgrade is unpacking?
[02:42] <bastid_raZor> lord_hypnos; not the IP the outside world sees.. but your internel IP your router gives you.
[02:42] <ozgurgerilla> ActionParsnip: I did. now? and it's not a file its a directory.
[02:43] <lord_hypnos> how do I check that bastid_raZor ?
[02:43] <ActionParsnip> kudar: i wouldnt think so, only 1 process at a time can access the packages
[02:43] <sshirley> AP: I read the manpage for interfaces. It didn't immediately jump out at me how to specify my WEP (maybe I didn't read it properly). I will have the following so far:
[02:43] <bastid_raZor> lord_hypnos; ifconfig and look for inet addr:
[02:44] <sshirley> AP: AUTO WLAN0
[02:44] <sshirley> IFACE WLAN0 INET DHCP
[02:44] <FloodBot1> sshirley: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:44] <kudar> is dist-upgrade going to upgrade from hardy to intrepid?
[02:44] <lord_hypnos> bastid_raZor: should be thisone <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:44] <daf_> Can anyone help me with dpkg --configure -a failing?
[02:44] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: i'd strongly suggest a wired connection to get setup
[02:45] <daf_> Cannot find /lib/modules/<IP_ADDRESS>-inj
[02:45] <bastid_raZor> lord_hypnos; no, you're using a wired connection?
[02:45] <ActionParsnip> daf_: whats its output?
[02:45] <lord_hypnos> yes I am
[02:45] <daf_> which is true. I deleted it a while ago.
[02:45] <ozgurgerilla> ActionParsnip: ok does mirc work on ubuntu?
[02:45] <bastid_raZor> kudar; yes it would upgrade your version to Intrepid
[02:45] <lord_hypnos> bastid_raZor: yes i am
[02:45] <majnoon> ozgurgerilla, SORTA in wine
[02:45] <daf_> ActionParsnip did you see my response?
[02:45] <bastid_raZor> lord_hypnos; okay, on eth0 what is the inet addr: and Bcast:
[02:46] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: you can run it via wine but its pointless as there are a massed multitude or irc clients for linux, what aspect of mirc do you require?
[02:46] <lord_hypnos> I dont use eth0, i use eth1
[02:46] <kudar> bastid_raZor: will i have to update intrepid once it upgrades from hardy to intrepid?
[02:46] <lord_hypnos> bastid_raZor: i use eth1
[02:46] <bastid_raZor> kudar; i don't know, i still use hardy.
[02:46] <ActionParsnip> daf_: is it referenced in /etc/modules?
[02:46] <ozgurgerilla> ActionParsnip: as long as it does the job it's ok for me. the one your using :)
[02:46] <bastid_raZor> lord_hypnos; fine, what is it for eth1
[02:46] <ActionParsnip> ozgurgerilla: i use pidgin, but something more like mirc would be xchat
[02:46] <scresawn> join #gnome-art
[02:47] <kudar> bastid_raZor: why?
[02:47] <ozgurgerilla> ActionParsnip: thanks, brb.
[02:47] <daf_> ActionParsnip no just fuse,lp,rtc,sbp2
[02:47] <lord_hypnos> bastid_raZor: inet Adresse:<IP_ADDRESS>  Bcast:<IP_ADDRESS>
[02:47] <Starnestommy> ozgurgerilla: mirc can be run under wine, but native clents such as xchat and irssi work better
[02:47] <ozgurgerilla> thanks..
[02:48] <bastid_raZor> kudar; i'm going for stability rather than latest and greatest. this is a home business box that i can't afford to spend 1 minute of downtime.
[02:48] <ActionParsnip> daf_: you could create the file just to keep it happy
[02:48] <ActionParsnip> bastid_raZor: you will never get 100% uptime
[02:48] <xai> synaptic keeps giving me this: "can't connect to xyz.com ... could not connect to <IP_ADDRESS>:8080 .. (111 connection revfused)
[02:48] <xai> Its a hardy system.
[02:48] <daf_> ActionParsnip ok but then how can I go about deleting it so dpkg doesn't see it.
[02:49] <xai> Do I need to upgrade?
[02:49] <FAJ> bastid_raZor: if that is what you are going for:  then ubuntu LTS is probably the best for you...
[02:49] <aeosynth> I want to do a fresh install of ubuntu, do I have to create a brand new partition or is there any way I can use my existing install (ie delete and reinstall everything except my home folder)?
[02:49] <I_Am> I'm trying to install ubuntu but it partitioner dosen't see any of my partitions
[02:49] <ActionParsnip> xai: hardy is supported until 2011
[02:49] <bastid_raZor> ActionParsnip; i beg to differ. this box has been upgraded to hardy and in the last 3 months i've had less than 1 total hour of downtime.
[02:49] <xai> Or is there some funky proxy setting in synaptic?
[02:49] <FAJ> bastid_raZor: stick with hardy then.... personally I think it is really really good.
[02:49] <Starnestommy> xai: make sure that synaptic's proxy settings are correct or change the server's you using in system > administration > software sources
[02:49] <bastid_raZor> lord_hypnos; probably the best way to find your router ip would be to google the brand and model.. <IP_ADDRESS> may work
[02:49] <FAJ> bastid_raZor:  i tried an upgrade; ended up regressing.
[02:49] <ActionParsnip> bastid_raZor: i work for a huge company with a tonne of redundancy and our availablity is 99.9999, we are pushing to get 99.99999 right now
[02:50] <ActionParsnip> bastid_raZor: 1 hour out of 3 months is not 100% availability
[02:50] <bastid_raZor> FAJ; i have a server that i upgraded that didn't go so well.
[02:50] <I_Am> I'm trying to install ubuntu but it partitioner dosen't see any of my partitions
[02:50] <FAJ> bastid_raZor: what is wrong then??
[02:51] <bastid_raZor> ActionParsnip; and your point? i prefer to not upgrade.
[02:51] <doodle77> qemu crashed and my mouse is still grabbed!
[02:51] <ActionParsnip> daf_: you could search your files for any containing the module nae
[02:51] <bastid_raZor> FAJ; it had issues upgrading but i've fixed since.
[02:51] <FAJ> LTS' are normally more stable than anything else.
[02:51] <I_Am> I'm trying to install ubuntu but it partitioner dosen't see any of my partitions, but my ubuntu live cd can mount them
[02:51] <lord_hypnos> bastid_raZor: i googled but I found nothing but I think its <IP_ADDRESS> because I can ping that
[02:52] <FAJ> I_Am:  try formatting through gparted?  just a guess...
[02:52] <sayeghr> Hey gang, I have a question. I'm trying to upgrade from 7.04 to 7.1 but I'm getting issues because I suspect that the feisty repositories are no longer there... What do I do? I tried upgrading using the 7.1 alternate cd but it fails on me too.
[02:52] <ActionParsnip> bastid_raZor: if the system works, dont fix it, if its broken you need to act. You could analyse access patterns and work on it when there is least access to minimise impact
[02:52] <I_Am> FAJ it thinks my disk is blank
[02:52] <xai> Starnestommy: i found some $http_proxy that matches, but I don't see where it was set.
[02:52] <FAJ> I_Am:  are they?
[02:52] <daf_> ActionParsnip what controls dpkg? some config file somewhere?
[02:52] <kiko> hi
[02:52] <ActionParsnip> bastid_raZor: resolving the issue will allow the system to function better so is like an investment
[02:52] <I_Am> FAJ the live cd can mount the other partitions
[02:53] <FAJ> I_Am:  ok i understand that,,, however, the install cant... have you checked the disk for errors?
[02:53] <ActionParsnip> daf_: dpkg is just a package installer and remover, i dont think it has a config file
[02:53] <bastid_raZor> lord_hypnos; some routers want you to change your subnet.. i have two routers that broadcast wifi  then receive the signal and rebroadcast.. those routers require subnet to be changed.
[02:53] <I_Am> FAJ yes
[02:53] <kiko> how can i install songbird in a dell mini 9 netbook
[02:53] <FAJ> I_Am:  and nothing then?
[02:53] <sayeghr> Anyone know how to get upgrading working with 7.04 to 7.1? Or is it broken now that 7.04 isn't supported?
[02:53] <kiko> ?
[02:53] <bastid_raZor> ActionParsnip; since hardy is an LTS i have 3 years of no worry.
[02:53] <I_Am> FAJ YES
[02:54] <ActionParsnip> !songbird | kiko
[02:54] <lord_hypnos> bastid_raZor: so what should I set the subnet to?
[02:54] <ActionParsnip> kiko: the hardware doesnt matter, ubuntu is ubuntu
[02:54] <FAJ> sayeghr:  it shouldn't be 'broken' but installing 8.04 from an alternateive maybe?
[02:54] <ellis> !info songbird
[02:54] <ellis> ...
[02:54] <ActionParsnip> kiko: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Songbird
[02:54] <sayeghr> Urgh Im starting to think a clean install to 8.1 is in order.
[02:54] <FAJ> I_Am:  just checking.... is there any information on the HDD's?
[02:54] <bastid_raZor> lord_hypnos; i don't know, your routers model and version and google will give you those answers.
[02:55] <FAJ> sayeghr:  clean installs aren't bad?  it would help improve system speed etc.
[02:55] <bastid_raZor> ellis; songbird does not have a package, you'll have to snag it from their site and install it manually
[02:55] <daf_> ActionParsnip I was able to use update-initramfs to remove the fake file. I'm clean now thanks for the help.
[02:55] <kiko> dell mini 9 runs an ubuntu 8.04 mid edition on an atom processor
[02:55] <ActionParsnip> daf_: no man, smooth move
[02:56] <I_Am> FAJ: its a wd sata2 80gb laptop hd
[02:56] <kudar> why cant linux-backports-modules-intrepid be found?
[02:56] <FAJ> I_Am:  is there anything on it?
[02:56] <aeosynth> can do i do a fresh install of ubuntu while keeping my home folder intact?
[02:56] <I_Am> FAJ: the windows partition im on right now
[02:56] <bastid_raZor> aeosynth; you would have to move your /home to another partition or back it up somewhere.
[02:57] <ActionParsnip> kiko: doesnt matter any at all, its still ubuntu. Its like thinking an install of winrar in windows would be any different on a thinkpad to a dell inspiron. its all the same
[02:57] <doodle77> my mouse is still grabbed after qemu crashed, how do i ungrab it?
[02:57] <Davekong> aeosynth, no you don't have to just do not parition the home drive and make a differ user name than the old one
[02:57] <FAJ> I_Am:  try partitioning windows inside gparted before using the ubuntu installer,,, maybe...
[02:57] <sshirley> Can anyone tell me if using NDISWrapper for a network card degrades performance?
[02:57] <Ward1983> can someone check if the coammands that are used here are not good? http://www.dit.upm.es/vnumlwiki/index.php/Tutorial
[02:57] <CodeWar> how do I get to expand tree bars using right left arrow keys .. right now I have to use Ctrl+right / left
[02:58] <ActionParsnip> sshirley: no its pretty decent usually
[02:58] <I_Am> FAJ: i even tired a gparted live cd and got no luck
[02:58] <FAJ> I_Am:  is it vista?
[02:58] <Davekong> aeosynth, oh sorry if your /home is not on it's own partition then yea you have to move it to it's own partition
[02:58] <sshirley> AP: Then maybe I am better off using NDISWrapper. I can't seem to get this to work (even though I can scan).
[02:59] <FAJ> !ndiswrapper
[02:59] <FAJ> maybe?,,, just wondering.
[02:59] <jimjimhim> hi
[02:59] <FAJ> I_Am:  is it vista?
[02:59] <yaris123456789> hey guys i have a few nameservers, how can i check if they work ?
[02:59] <frayedknot> i'd like to use my usb headset to play games under wine, where do i start with this?
[02:59] <jimjimhim> I am having a sound problem.  It seems to stop working randomly
[03:00] <sshirley> ActionParsnip: Is this correct <script src='http://pastie.org/344155.js'></script>
[03:01] <Ward1983> jimjimhim, for some reason i had that too when pidgin sounds were not muted
[03:01] <Ward1983> you never know maybe its the same problem
[03:01] <raylu> sshirley: what part of a headless wireless server sounds like a bad idea?
[03:02] <sshirley> raylu: I know it's generally a bad idea. But it works for the layout of my house.
[03:02] <jimjimhim> Ward1983, it was during dvd playback and sometimes with VLC or Banshee
[03:02] <raylu> sshirley: also, it sounds to me that the problem is that you're not sure of your wireless router's configuration
[03:03] <Ward1983> jimjimhim, dunno then sorry
[03:03] <btoogood>  hi there all, hey i have registered with linuz counter and ubuntu counter just wondering how do I put the certificates in my signature in Kontact
[03:03] <raylu> sshirley: switching to ndiswrapper won't fix that. if scanning returns results, you're fine with your driver
[03:03] <raylu> sshirley: ndiswrapper won't improve the situation
[03:04] <Ward1983> can someone explain what is bad about the commands used here? and maybe even give an alternative http://www.dit.upm.es/vnumlwiki/index.php/Tutorial
[03:04] <Ward1983> someone told me it were retarded commands but didnt explain why
[03:04] <Ward1983> he was rather moody
[03:04] <yaris123456789> now i have nameserver,  how do i link a domain name to a specific folder on my server ?
[03:05] <sshirley> raylu: So I guess I just need to dig a little deeper in fidning out how to configure this.
[03:06] <sshirley> raylu: Which pastebin do you all use? I'd like to show you what I have in my /etc/network/interfaces so far.
[03:06] <GarthDB> Is there anyone here that could help me with some ubuntu expertice?
[03:06] <basti> a nameserver? do you have 100 computers at home sshirley?
[03:06] <basti> yaris123456789 i mean
[03:07] <Ward1983> GarthDB, lol jsut ask the question or nobody CAN reply :)
[03:07] <sshirley> basti: I never said anything about a nameserver. I think that was yaris123456789.
[03:07] <raylu> !pastebin | sshirley
[03:07] <raylu> sshirley: though pastecode, pastie, etc. are all fine
[03:07] <GarthDB> I am trying to install ubuntu on a computer that doesn't seem to like to boot off of the hard drive
[03:07] <ozgurgerilla1> wow ubuntu rocks!
[03:07] <sshirley> raylu: http://paste.ubuntu.com/89640/
[03:07] <raylu> sshirley: have you gotten connected at all? if not, i'd suggest messing with iwconfig and dhclient rather than interfaces
[03:08] <enovativ_> lord_hypnos: are you still on here
[03:08] <ozgurgerilla1> ActionParsnip: are you around here?
[03:08] <enovativ_> sorry for the delay....
[03:09] <GarthDB> Ward1983: thanks - I can boot on the install cd, but it won't boot on my hard drive after installing.  I was just wondering if there was an easy way to make a boot cd that will boot the installation on my hard drive
[03:09] <GarthDB> that was a bit redundant sounding
[03:09] <sshirley> raylu: No I haven't. This is what I get when I do a iwconfig: http://paste.ubuntu.com/89642/
[03:09] <Ward1983> GarthDB, it should boot from your harddrive, are your BIOS settings correct? did you remove the CD out of the tray?
[03:09] <aiuw> How does one re-install a package and all of the config files with that package
[03:09] <enovativ_> is there a way to convert a external RAW drive to NTFS ?
[03:10] <enovativ_> using linux ?
[03:10] <ozgurgerilla1> can someone help me with my wireless card please, it's a athemos wireless card and doesn't work
[03:10] <enovativ_> i tried gparted...but for some reason ...gparted does not see external drives
[03:10] <sebastian> !wireless
[03:10] <Ward1983> GarthDB, also if its still IDE check jumper settings
[03:10] <R0b0t1> How might I get Transmission (bittorrent client) to minimize to the upper-right like it used to?
[03:10] <jimjimhim> enovativ_, did you try partedmagic?
[03:10] <Ward1983> GarthDB, uinless it booted a OS before that is offcourse lol
[03:10] <aiuw> R0b0t1, minimise it?
[03:10] <GarthDB> Ward1983: I did remove the cd, and you're right it should be booting from the hard drive.
[03:11] <GarthDB> Ward1983: that might be it
[03:11] <R0b0t1> aiuw: Upper-right, like the Windows system tray.
[03:11] <enovativ_> jimjimhim: are you talking about Partiion Magic or is there a app out there called "partedmagic" ?
[03:11] <sebastian> !ndiswrapper | ozgurgerilla1
[03:11] <jimjimhim> enovativ_, i will get you the url
[03:11] <R0b0t1> aiuw: Get what I mean? Minimize it to an icon
[03:11] <enovativ_> jimjimhim: thanks
[03:11] <raylu> sshirley: if ifconfig shows that you have no ip, "dhclient wlan0"
[03:11] <eseven73> R0b0t1: theres a few toys in synaptic that allows you to minimize or dock any window, just search it for 'minimize'
[03:11] <Ward1983> GarthDB, and the liveCD has a option "Boot from first harddrive" in the menu btw :p but just fix it instead of using that ugly workaround
[03:11] <jimjimhim> enovativ_, http://partedmagic.com/
[03:12] <GarthDB> Ward1983: that dies silently
[03:12] <aiuw> R0b0t1, whenever I start it, and click "x" it automatically shows up as an icon in the upper corner
[03:12] <jimjimhim> its open source and has a nice GUI
[03:12] <enovativ_> jimjimhim: thanks again...checking it out now
[03:12] <Ward1983> GarthDB, thats freaky
[03:12] <GarthDB> yeah
[03:12] <raylu> jimjimhim: ...what's wrong with gparted?
[03:12] <R0b0t1> aiuw: It used to do that for me, also.
[03:12] <raylu> enovativ_: gparted is in the repositories; just use that
[03:12] <R0b0t1> However when I upgraded to the newest ubuntu, it doesn't anymore.
[03:12] <Ward1983> GarthDB, did you do a standard install? guided? (or whats the name again in english)
[03:12] <jimjimhim> raylu, nothing I just like partedmagic better
[03:13] <GarthDB> Ward1983: I tried the guided install
[03:13] <GarthDB> Ward1983: and the manual
[03:13] <jimjimhim> raylu,  because I use it on non linux systems a lot
[03:13] <thorin81> I have a wireless driver question reg. activation of the wireless adapter
[03:13] <Ward1983> GarthDB, you only have one disk right? just to make sure
[03:13] <sshirley> raylu: I've tried that a few times. http://paste.ubuntu.com/89643/
[03:13] <SudoKing> Hi I'm having a problem with apt-get/dpkg.  subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
[03:13] <enovativ_> raylu: i just tried gparted, and it doesn't see external drives
[03:14] <GarthDB> Ward1983: I have three One IDE and two SATA and I think that might be causing the problem
[03:14] <Ward1983> enovativ_, it does here
[03:14] <lord_hypnos> enovativ yeas
[03:14] <lord_hypnos> yes*
[03:14] <lord_hypnos> and i still dont know what to do
[03:14] <enovativ_> Ward1983: are you telling me that gparted works on external drives
[03:14] <Ward1983> GarthDB, did you try booting from the others? its possible grub is installed on another disk, i had that before
[03:14] <GarthDB> Ward1983: The SATA are running off of a card and I'm not entirely sure the Bios is handling that right
[03:14] <raylu> enovativ_: it should... did you select the right drive?
[03:14] <enovativ_> lord_hypnos: did you find your answer about your router ?
[03:14] <Ward1983> enovativ_, again: it does here
[03:15] <Ward1983> enovativ_, on my 1TB over USB
[03:15] <enovativ_> Ward1983: thanks i will look at it agian
[03:15] <lord_hypnos> enovativ: nop
[03:15] <enovativ_> lord_hypnos: sorry for tre delay...stil researching
[03:15] <Ward1983> enovativ_, the dropdownlist is in the upper right corner btw
[03:15] <Ward1983> lol
[03:15] <white-sheep> I wonder if I can set variable in /.bash_alias ?
[03:15] <lord_hypnos> enovativ:is there a difference between a router and a modem?
[03:15] <enovativ_> Ward1983: thanks
[03:15] <GarthDB> Ward1983: yeah.  It really dies if I tell it to boot off of anything other than the IDE
[03:15] <enovativ_> lord_hypnos: yes a big difference
[03:15] <GarthDB> Ward1983: I installed it there
[03:15] <Ward1983> GarthDB, you get to see grub when you boot from the IDE?
[03:16] <Ward1983> GarthDB, (grub is the bootmanager)
[03:16] <GarthDB> Ward1983: nope
[03:16] <lord_hypnos> enovativ: ok I think I have a modem. it still blocks my ports. I want to forward a port so it can be used by transmission
[03:16] <core7> gaul
[03:16] <GarthDB> Ward1983: I haven't been able to get it to boot off of anything but the cd
[03:16] <core7> i9ndonesia
[03:17] <GarthDB> Ward1983: I just got a grub error 21
[03:17] <Pici> !id
[03:17] <sshirley> raylu: Holy crap!! It just worked!!
[03:17] <Ward1983> GarthDB, did you try booting from the other 2 disks just to make sure grub is not on them?
[03:17] <enovativ_> lord_hypnos: so basically you have one connection from the wall to your modem, and CAT5 from your modem to your NIC card
[03:17] <Ward1983> GarthDB, then you got to see grub
[03:17] <GarthDB> Ward1983: but I think I did this last install wrong
[03:17] <raylu> Shovi: o.0?
[03:17] <Ward1983> GarthDB, you get grub error 21 when you boot from the IDE?
[03:17] <raylu> er, =\
[03:17] <raylu> sshirley: what'd you do?
[03:17] <Ward1983> GarthDB, lol please tell that kind of stuff immediately in the future :p errors are important
[03:18] <GarthDB> Ward1983: No sorry I was trying something new - booting off of a usb
[03:18] <GarthDB> Ward1983: sorry I was trying it out while talking to you
[03:18] <lord_hypnos> enovativ: yep.. all wired
[03:18] <GarthDB> Ward1983:  I was telling you about my previous problems first
[03:18] <Ward1983> GarthDB, no problem
[03:18] <thorin81> I am running an Acer with Broadcom wireless network card. I installed ndiswrapper but I cannot get the adapter to activate - any help would be great!!!!!!
[03:18] <sshirley> raylu: http://paste.ubuntu.com/89647/   I don't get it though. I did the same thing in my /etc/network/interfaces file, restarted the networking, and nothing.
[03:18] <Ward1983> GarthDB, it indeed has something to do about not recognizing the disk
[03:19] <Ward1983> GarthDB, at least according to google (google grub error 21)
[03:19] <FAJ> !broadcom | thorin81
[03:19] <Ward1983> GarthDB, check the BIOS settings, if you dunno how to set them make some pictures and give the links to someone here
[03:19] <FAJ> !info bcm43-fwcutter | thorin81
[03:19] <GarthDB> Ward1983: I am going to try taking out the IDE and installing it on the SATA drives.  That was the previous install configuration
[03:19] <FAJ> -.-
[03:19] <tsuna27> amarok!
[03:19] <GarthDB> Ward1983: *One of the Sata drives
[03:19] <tsuna27> !amarok
[03:20] <lord_hypnos> enovativ: btw i dont use a firewall
[03:20] <Ward1983> GarthDB, that might be faster too
[03:20] <israelito_solito> hello, I have a problem with my video card. The video works fine for about 30 minutes and then it gets slow
[03:20] <sshirley> raylu: Can you explain what the difference is? Or is it just one of those things?
[03:21] <tsuna27> does any1 noe how 2 make amarok look like itunes?
[03:21] <GarthDB> Ward1983: The IDE is a larger drive and I'm wanting to use it as file server, but when I have the IDE drive in it doesn't even try to boot off of the SATA, and hangs forever when I tell it to
[03:21] <enovativ_> lord_hypnos: that is a bad practice...there is no port forwarding without a router (and or firewall)
[03:21] <Ward1983> GarthDB, so you cannot even use the IDE with anything? then check your BIOS settings
[03:21] <GarthDB> Ward1983: I might just put the IDE in an external usb case I have and use it that way
[03:22] <enovativ_> lord_hypnos: if all you have is a modem with one port for that CAT5 from the modem to your NIC card...you need to get a router
[03:22] <Ward1983> GarthDB, its definitely not normal
[03:22] <lord_hypnos> enovativ: what for?
[03:22] <Ward1983> GarthDB, check the BIOS its probably in there somewhee
[03:22] <austin>  itues on ubuntu
[03:22] <rww> !itunes | austin
[03:22] <enovativ_> lord_hypnos: you can not port forwarding on a modem
[03:22] <enovativ_> lord_hypnos: unless the modem has a built in router
[03:22] <GarthDB> Ward1983: that is what I figured, but I didn't want to spend too much time troubleshooting it.  I hate messing with the BIOS, that's why I was trying to boot from cd :)
[03:23] <jimjimhim> enovativ_, there are devices that are modems/firewalls so he might have one of those
[03:23] <enovativ_> lord_hypnos: what is the name of your router again
[03:23] <lord_hypnos> enovativ: yeah i think that is the case
[03:23] <lord_hypnos> enovativ: mom I'll give you a link
[03:23] <jimjimhim> you need the vendor and model number
[03:23] <white-sheep> How do I change JAVA_HOME setting?  It is point to JRE when I want to point it to JDK.
[03:23] <enovativ_> jimjimhim: good point.....thanks
[03:23] <beefybefay> What's the firefox 64-bit java plugin package called?
[03:23] <israelito_solito> hello, I have a problem with my video card. The video works fine for about 30 minutes and then it gets slow
[03:23] <Ward1983> GarthDB, lol are you like "scared" of the BIOS?
[03:23] <jimjimhim> they all run Linux btw
[03:23] <enovativ_> lord_hypnos: thanks....let me get that...and i will be better able to assist
[03:23] <FAJ> the BIOS is a scary place
[03:23] <magnetron> !flash64 | beefybefay
[03:23] <jimjimhim> =)
[03:24] <enovativ_> in the meantime let me go and try this gparted again
[03:24] <Ward1983> GarthDB, if it makes you feel a little bit more secure you could make pics of the bios screens and ask on IRC what to choose
[03:24] <GarthDB> Ward1983: yeah :)  I've wasted too much time on past projects in BIOS
[03:24] <austin> can you install itunes on ubuntu
[03:24] <FAJ> !itunes | austin
[03:24] <white-sheep> austin -- You can install Windows on Ubuntu.
[03:24] <austin> wtf
[03:24] <Ward1983> GarthDB, still if you're gonna install OSes you NEED to work with the BIOS
[03:24] <austin> just tell me i dont need the server....
[03:24] <jimjimhim> !drm
[03:24] <jimjimhim> lol
[03:24] <carandraug> is there something as a general equalizer in Ubuntu 8.10? I fell like the sound has more bass since I switched to 8.10
[03:24] <jimjimhim> xD
[03:25] <comradekingu> rythmbox and amarok are good candidates
[03:25] <jimjimhim> !appledrm?
[03:25] <austin> does...anyone..know about itune
[03:25] <austin> (s)
[03:25] <FAJ> austin:  listen to what we are saying!
[03:25] <GarthDB> Ward1983: yeah.  So I'm seeing in there that I have two options for hard disk boot priority - my IDE and Bootable Add-in Cards
[03:25] <rww> austin: iTunes is, as you've been told repeatedly, NOT AVAILABLE ON LINUX.
[03:25] <FAJ> !itunes > austin
[03:25] <jimjimhim> austin, Itunes is not on linux
[03:26] <beefybefay> Isn't there a open source 64bit java plugin?
[03:26] <lord_hypnos> enovativ: it should be the previous version (mine is cm450b)of that device http://www.arrisi.com/product_catalog/listers/index.asp?id=391
[03:26] <comradekingu> Apple drm is called FairPlay...
[03:26] <GarthDB> Ward1983: I have the IDE as the primary boot.  Is there something more to it than that?
[03:26] <FAJ> b/c apple is anti-linux, even though they are built on linux..... -.-
[03:26] <carandraug> austin: I think it runs in wine if you really really can't go with an alternative that is in the repositories
[03:26] <jimjimhim> "fair" hahhaah!
[03:26] <white-sheep> How do I change JAVA_HOME setting?  It is pointed at JRE when I want to point it to JDK.
[03:26] <jimjimhim> apple is anti-consumer
[03:26] <FAJ> carandraug: it works on itunes... sometimes.... it's really bad.
[03:26] <rww> jimjimhim: take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:27] <austin> carandraug: how do i run it on wine?
[03:27] <comradekingu> Worst apple-joke is ALAC. Right now you are probably wondering what ALAC is. Its FLAC, only..., yes
