[02:17] <kitsuneofdoom> cafuego_: I believe I did ask which CD I needed...oh, well, no matter, I can probably do it with this one, and I have a big stack of blanks
[02:17] <tripppy> hi, i just installed a new video card, a very big upgrade, now i can't get into Gnome, how do i run video card setup again?
[02:18] <bimberi> tripppy: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:18] <tripppy> thnx!
[02:19] <gizmo_the_great1> are the terminal commands stored in a config file somewhere....the one's that are listed when you doskey through history?
[02:19] <kitche> gizmo_the_great1: ~/.bash_history
[02:19] <linux_kid> trippy: you are going to have to reinstall ubuntu or at least go to tty1 and reinstall the package gnome-desktop
[02:20] <kitche> linux_kid: no he doesn't he just has to reconfigure X
[02:20] <gizmo_the_great1> kitche: thanks, but I do not appear to have a hidden .bash folder?
[02:20] <kitche> gizmo_the_great1: it's not a folder
[02:20] <kitsuneofdoom> cafuego_: Is the "alternate" install disk the server install disk?
[02:21] <cafuego_> kitsuneofdoom: No, it's called 'alternate'
[02:21] <gizmo_the_great1> kitche: well spotted. cheers man
[02:21] <tripppy> well if i cant reconfigure ill reinstall!
[02:21] <kitsuneofdoom> cafuego_: can you tell me where to get it?
[02:21] <tripppy> laters
[02:21] <kitsuneofdoom> cafuego_: oh, nevermind
[02:21] <likeninja> New to Ubuntu, just installed 6.06 with a dual boot, but I only have access to the net via a USB D-Link DWL-G122 receiver and its not being recognized...anyone familiar with this?
[02:21] <Ray-Newbie> for my video problem i've tried adding "fb=false video=vga:off" (according to online help) to boot line but it doesn't seem to help.  i guess i need to get it visible first before i install the drivers?
[02:22] <Asc> Any word on whether Debian's very nearly full-disk-encryption encryption feature will be in Feisty?
[02:22] <cassidy> hey guys, has anyone ever heard of working dri for x1950 with the new 8.32.5 drivers?
[02:22] <daniel1988> hi folks! I'm having problems with nvidia driver (9631). Installation was ok (using envy script). It only displays white screen upon loading gdm: http://img443.imageshack.us/img443/5905/nvidiaew6.jpg . Any idea? (topic on ubuntu forum: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1968883#post1968883)
[02:22] <Asc> less one encryption
[02:22] <eugman> How can I rip sound using mplayer without it showing the video? I'd like it to work faster if thqat's possibled.
[02:23] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, that's my laptop!!!
[02:23] <liam_> whats the bar at the bottom of the screen called on linux
[02:23] <pagefault> easy
[02:23] <FurryNemesis> I've got one of those!
[02:23] <liam_> with the tasks on and stuff?
[02:23] <Aj_> is there a default passwd for root on Ubuntu?
[02:23] <pagefault> eugman: use the null video output plugin
[02:23] <cafuego_> liam_: panel
[02:23] <liam_> thanks
[02:23] <cafuego_> liam_: in Gnome anyway
[02:23] <liam_> im on kde
[02:23] <liam_> ?
[02:23] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, Toshiba Satellite S5200-701 :)
[02:23] <kitche> Aj_: root is locked so it doesn't have a password use sudo instead
[02:23] <Asc> eugman: use '-vo null'
[02:23] <elyon> ikonia:  Okay, I'm back...but it didn't change.
[02:24] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, woohoo! anyway, did you use the legacy package or the normal one?
[02:24] <ikonia> elyon: really, thats annoying
[02:24] <ikonia> and surprising
[02:24] <Peebo> any one from pommy land here
[02:24] <elyon> ikonia:  And when I logged off, the screen went black with just a black X for a cursor... I had to do a hard reset
[02:24] <ikonia> I'm off to bed now so I can't really progress it
[02:24] <ikonia> elyon: looks like your install has a problem too
[02:24] <elyon> ikonia:  Alright.  Well thanks for your help and have a good night.
[02:24] <ikonia> no problem
[02:24] <notme> How can I figure out where http://localhost/ is pointing to in my install. It is not /var/www/
[02:25] <elyon> Linux has a long, LONG way to go if it ever wants to be a viable alternative to Windows for the average user... I must say.
[02:25] <svish> where can I find more themes for Ubuntu?
[02:25] <somerville32> elyon: How so?
[02:25] <svish> !themes
[02:25] <ubotu> Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://kdelook.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[02:25] <wyld> elyon: why do you think that
[02:25] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, envy script. nvidia 96.31 (I think this should be the normal one)
[02:25] <kitche> elyon: well considering that Linux is not an alternative to winodws I would say it doesn't
[02:25] <Peebo> elyon: True but Ubuntu is in front of all the other distributions
[02:25] <bepogi> hey guys.  i have the most ridiculous newbie question in the history of the world.... i JUST installed ubuntu for the first time.  trying to grab automatix.
[02:25] <bepogi> i do a sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list in the terminal
[02:26] <bepogi> it asks for password but then i cannot type anything?
[02:26] <Aj_> kitche, I don't seem to get an error message when I use sudo, but it does not seem to be preforming the requested operation ifup\
[02:26] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, legacy is 71.84 or something like that (71.xx)
[02:26] <somerville32> !automatix | bepogi
[02:26] <ubotu> bepogi: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[02:26] <Aj_> ifup *
[02:26] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, looks like you made it unnecessarily complicated
[02:26] <svish> ok.. let me refrase that.. on the gnome-look site, which category under content do I find themes for ubuntu? any of them?
[02:26] <wyld> elyon: I dual boot, but have not used windows for anything but games
[02:26] <kitche> Peebo: well most distros aren't trying to be alternatives to Windows also
[02:26] <Ray-Newbie> for my video problem i've tried adding "fb=false video=vga:off" (according to online help) to boot line but it doesn't seem to help - still comes up as giberish.  i guess i need to get it visible first before i install the drivers?
[02:26] <wyld> !worksforme
[02:26] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[02:26] <bepogi> ah
[02:26] <somerville32> elyon, wyld: Xubuntu is the only thing I have installed. :)
[02:26] <elyon> I say that about Linux because I have a lot of computer experience and its been taking me over two weeks to get everything working... imagine someone that just wants to check email and such.
[02:27] <wyld> somerville32: quite the brazen adventurer aren't you?
[02:27] <Uthalin> elyon: ubuntu should be able to "just check email" right out of the box
[02:27] <somerville32> elyon: What problems have you been having?
[02:27] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, what should I do now?
[02:27] <elyon> ...and things are STILL going wrong that no one seems to be able to fix.
[02:27] <somerville32> elyon: Let me try :)
[02:27] <cassidy> anyone know if the x1950 pro works with the new 8.32.5 drivers?
[02:27] <Peebo> kitche: Like most people who do more then play games I am waiting patiently for Micorsoft to implode and for Windoze to disappear from the face of the Universe
[02:27] <liam_> how do you change icon themes on kde?
[02:28] <Asc> elyon: The average user wants to use the internet, limewire, an office program, and winamp.  Linux will be fine for the average if X ever starts working right.
[02:28] <somerville32> elyon: Open a private query with me so that we don't need to be distracted by the traffic in here :)
[02:28] <FurryNemesis> well, first off all reconfig your xserver to use the generic mesa or vesa drivers so you can actually see what you're doing
[02:28] <pagefault> cassidy: if it does don't expect it to run very well
[02:28] <elyon> somerville32:  Okay, well there are two problems I'm currently having.  First, my mp3 player, card reader, and digital camera can no longer be mounted.
[02:28] <eugman> thanks asc
[02:28] <somerville32> elyon: Lets work through each issue one at a time.
[02:28] <wyld> how do you do a private query?
[02:28] <cassidy> pagefault: can you get dri working with it?
[02:28] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, I can acces gnome session
[02:28] <kitche> wyld: /query nick
[02:28] <cassidy> pagefault: because i want to use xgl
[02:28] <Asc> eugman: Glad I could help.
[02:28] <FurryNemesis> ah, that's ok - can you get into synaptic?
[02:28] <svish> !kde
[02:28] <wyld> thanks kitche
[02:28] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the K Desktop Environment. To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop", or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE for other ways to get KDE
[02:29] <somerville32> elyon: Was it working at one point?
[02:29] <elyon> Asc:  I don't know about that.  Even from the first install, Firefox crashed on me a few times.
[02:29] <svish> !installingthemes
[02:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about installingthemes - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:29] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, ctrl+alt+f1, login, sudo rm /tmp/.X0-lock, startx and everything is fine
[02:29] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, direct rendering is enabled
[02:29] <pagefault> cassidy: says x1900 series
[02:29] <FurryNemesis> oh, right
[02:29] <pagefault> so I would assume so
[02:29] <kitche> elyon: welcome to flash bugs since firefox doesn't crash normally but flash likes to make it crash alot :P it even does it in windows
[02:29] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, yes, I cann access it
[02:29] <elyon> somerville32:  I opened a dialog window with you.
[02:30] <Asc> elyon: Funky.
[02:30] <h3xis> !automatix
[02:30] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[02:30] <cassidy> pagefault: are you still talking about with the new 8.32.5 drivers?
[02:30] <pagefault> cassidy: yes
[02:30] <Red-Sox> Jam is huge
[02:30] <Red-Sox> it's been installing forever
[02:30] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, and plese write to me: daniel1988, massage (easire to see what you are actually typing)
[02:30] <noodles12> if i open up torrents in ktorrent. where are these temp torrents kept? i deleted the files but it still keeps popping up "would you like to recreate this file?"
[02:30] <Red-Sox> speak of the devil it just finished
[02:30] <cassidy> pagefault: well i cant get mine to run under ati for opengl, its saying that stupid mesa
[02:31] <somerville32> elyon: Are you registered?
[02:31] <pagefault> cassidy: it will be very slow though because ati lacks the extension to accelerate it fast enough
[02:31] <elyon> elyon:  I don't think so.
[02:31] <kitche> noodles12: /tmp probably but just remove them from ktorrent
[02:31] <Ray-Newbie> can someone help me - for my video problem i've tried adding "fb=false video=vga:off" (according to online help) to boot line but it doesn't seem to help - still comes up as giberish.  i guess i need to get it visible first before i install the drivers?
[02:31] <Peebo> Any one from England can you check this out please. http://members.westnet.com.au/maglar/  <- nothing to important but you might help.
[02:31] <cassidy> pagefault: any way 3rd party drivers or something to get it running?
[02:31] <somerville32> !register | elyon
[02:31] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, type dani(and hit tab key < it will autocomplete the rest)
[02:31] <ubotu> elyon: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[02:31] <elyon> Asc:  Then there is the issue I'm having now with my card reader, digital camera, and mp3 players not working.  Those are things the 'average user' would want to have working too.
[02:31] <pagefault> hmm
[02:31] <pagefault> cassidy: not much you can do except buy an nvidia card :(
[02:32] <Red-Sox> Where to apps install to?
[02:32] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, now say what to do...
[02:32] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, got it - ok, looks like you're not getting my PM's so essentially you need to restart X to get a working screen, is that it?
[02:32] <Red-Sox> Oh and I _NEED_ iTunes running on Linux
[02:32] <Red-Sox> Any workarounds?
[02:32] <kitche> Red-Sox: though wine but 7.x doesn't work
[02:32] <Asc> elyon: Funky.  They work for me.
[02:32] <somerville32> !itunes | Red-Sox
[02:32] <ubotu> Red-Sox: itunes is not available on Linux, but there are many audio player alternatives (see !players). For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee
[02:32] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, right
[02:32] <kitche> elyon: have you updated lately?
[02:33] <xtknight> elyon: im here now
[02:33] <Red-Sox> somerville32: Yeah but I need the music store
[02:33] <phish2> I've got a box installed with the normal desktop install however now I put the root drive on lvm.  I added device mapper modules to /etc/mkinitramfs/modules and lvm scanning and all that works in the busybox but it always tries to mount root (and waits at trying to mount root for 5 mins before failing and dropping into busybox)
[02:33] <Asc> red-sox: You can use Ccedaga to run itunes.  Also, banshee is a semi-passable clone.
[02:33] <Asc> *cedaga
[02:33] <elyon> kitche:  Any time updates are available, yes.
[02:33] <xtknight> elyon: did you get gparted working
[02:33] <Red-Sox> Asc: Dude I _have_ Cedega!
[02:33] <notme> Red-Sox: what functions [] do you need in itunes?
[02:33] <Red-Sox> Asc: So it runs well?
[02:33] <pagefault> crossover office runs itunes the best but is a commercial product
[02:33] <elyon> xtknight:  Nope.  now my removable devices refuse to mount ;)
[02:33] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, I tried to use synaptic to install nvidia dirver... it tries to install 97xx which doesn't support gf4mx 460go
[02:33] <phish2> I'll I have to do to boot from there is lvm lvchange -a y to the lv groups I use
[02:33] <xtknight> elyon: ah ok
[02:33] <pagefault> you are better off with amarok or exile
[02:33] <Red-Sox> notme: iPod integration, Music Store, Look and Feel, using an apple product :P
[02:33] <xtknight> elyon: well we can fix that
[02:33] <notme> banshee
[02:34] <Red-Sox> notme: mainly music store though...
[02:34] <elyon> xtknight:  somerville32 is giving me a hand at the moment :P
[02:34] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, ok, get into synaptic, search for nvidia legacy and install the package called nvidia-glx-legacy - you don't need the dev files. After that run "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable"
[02:34] <kitche> elyon: then probably you got a kernel update and it broke your system the kernel is actually updated quite a bit in Linux not sure if Ubuntu updated it though
[02:34] <notme> banshee
[02:34] <xtknight> elyon:
[02:34] <xtknight> k
[02:34] <notme> Red-Sox: banshee can do all that
[02:34] <somerville32> elyon: xtknight can help too :)
[02:34] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, I want to install beryl
[02:34] <Red-Sox> notme: How do I use the Music Store?
[02:34] <Asc> red-sox: I don't have Cedaga myself; I've just heard that it runs itunes.
[02:34] <elyon> grr... my nickname is already registered.
[02:34] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, no prob, I've got it running right now
[02:34] <kitche> notme: banshee can't use Apple music store
[02:34] <Red-Sox> Asc: oh
[02:34] <cassidy> pagefault: damn i like this card under windows....
[02:34] <elyon> somerville32:  I'm fine with that :)
[02:34] <somerville32> elyon: identify then :)
[02:35] <somerville32> elyon: /msg nickserv identify <your pass>
[02:35] <notme> Red-Sox: read the banshee webpage it will tell you how
[02:35] <pagefault> cassidy: ati doesn't care about linux
[02:35] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, starting with nvidia 96.29, drivers do it, no need for xgl nor aiglx
[02:35] <elyon> somerville32:  I never registered it, though.
[02:35] <Asc> wait.  Banshee does music store?
[02:35] <somerville32> elyon: Ok, then register your nick :)
[02:35] <pagefault> cassidy: I had to switch from them because I got fed up
[02:35] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, so i need something >=96.29
[02:35] <Red-Sox> notme: kk
[02:35] <kitche> Asc: not that I know of
[02:35] <elyon> somerville32:  Its already taken lol
[02:35] <kitche> Asc: unless it's Amazon or another one
[02:35] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, legacy drivers are 7xxx
[02:36] <phish2> anyone have any idea why root fails to mount (or rather just activate my lv groups?)
[02:36] <cassidy> pagefault: well idk anymore then no need for linux with this card, cant run alot of apps very good
[02:36] <kitche> FurryNemesis: what card do you have?
[02:36] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, I'm using XGL as a workaround, thing is our GeForce 4 cards are actually revamped GeForce 2's which don't accept those drivers - Toshiba kept that one unser their hats
[02:36] <xtknight> oh boy does Illustrator (under vmware) drive me up the wall.  anyone know of any good alternatives? (preferably linux)
[02:36] <pagefault> cassidy: their vista drivers are no better either which is sort of funny
[02:37] <kitche> FurryNemesis: well considering that GeForce2 is still supported with the nvidia drivers and not the legacy drivers I would use the nvidia drivers and not their legacy ones
[02:37] <xtknight> Illustrator is way overkill for what i need to do, and i believe i'm suffering because of that.
[02:37] <cassidy> pagefault: ya right now my card will play games in windows but like during half life 2 it keeps crashing, must be a bad model or something
[02:37] <Asc> Hmm, the plugins page says there's one for the itunes store
[02:37] <cafuego_> xtknight: Ha! Inkscape!

[02:39] <cassidy> brb
[02:39] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, legacy drivers will work, I can promise you that - mine's perfectly supported - and you're right, it is annoying
[02:39] <David6717> Anyone set up DSL on Ubuntu?
[02:39] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, is there a way to kill this white screen? driver actually works: glxinfo | grep direct ...direct rendering: Yes
[02:39] <xtknight> cafuego_: i can definitely catch on to this quicker. thanks.  but importing my current illustrator thing is going to be way too much trouble so ill just finish it up in there but for my next project this looks great
[02:40] <ammiel> is there a 32 bit package of libsm?
[02:40] <cafuego_> xtknight: export from illustrator as SVG
[02:40] <ammiel> i need it for wine

[02:40] <liam_> how do i find what version of kde im running?
[02:40] <xtknight> cafuego_: you wouldn't happen to know of how to remove just a couple mesh points from illustrator?  all i can find is ways to add them, the problem is my curve looks all weird because i cant adjust all the points perfectly.  i need to have less points.
[02:41] <cafuego_> xtknight: No, sorry... I haven't used Illistrator in close to a decade...
[02:41] <ammiel> liam_, you can open up konqueror and then go under help to about kde
[02:41] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, not that I know of, unfortunately - what a pain - silly question but what's running on session startup?
[02:42] <xtknight> just for reference, Alt+Click removes a mesh point
[02:42] <xtknight> phew
[02:42] <kitche> daniel1988: ok that is odd that probably not a geforce chipset then let me check out nvidia website

[02:43] <Riyonuk> What about bluefish and eclipse?

[02:43] <xtknight> Riyonuk: dreamweaver under vmware, that is

[02:44] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, I can login (on blind)... everyting works (login sound appers), it loads gnome session but there is the white screen on the top of it (if that was the answer on your question)
[02:44] <kitche> daniel1988: they must of just released those driver recently
[02:44] <cafuego_> Riyonuk: dreamweaver 2004 runs under cedega actually (perhaps wine too)
[02:44] <xtknight> Riyonuk: wine! it's so much better than vmware... :P   ok if you want serious suggestions, bluefish or anjuta i believe
[02:44] <Riyonuk> there we go
[02:44] <daniel1988> kitche, :( yes the support for gf4 is removed starting with 97xx
[02:45] <xtknight> maybe anjuta is only for C programming, i cant remember exactly
[02:45] <bruenig> !info nvu
[02:45] <ubotu> nvu: Complete Web Authoring System. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0final-2ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 8373 kB, installed size 26448 kB
[02:45] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, just noticed something on your xorg.conf - you're got 2 random 0's after the section:serverlayout : 22 screen, after the " marks
[02:45] <xtknight> nvu, yes that too
[02:45] <kitche> daniel1988: since I know they were still supported in 97xx when they first came out
[02:45] <Riyonuk> I hate nvu, Im gonna look into anjuta
[02:45] <bruenig> anjuta is not a dreamweaver type app
[02:45] <bruenig> it is an ide
[02:46] <ammiel> is there a 32 bit libSM library ?
[02:46] <daniel1988> kitche, the installed driver actually works: glxinfo | grep direct ...direct rendering: Yes (have you read the topic on forums?)
[02:46] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, I'll take a look
[02:46] <kitche> daniel1988: yes I did but my gpu probably won't work :(
[02:47] <homebrewer> Hi everyone!!
[02:47] <raintheory> if i need to i'll unload dapper from the HDD, delete it's partitions and then resize the NTFS partition with windoze tools...  but i'd rather do it another way...   anyone?
[02:48] <Red-Sox> What's the package that managers the "svn" command?
[02:48] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, here:     Screen         "Default Screen" 0 0 ?
[02:48] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, yep
[02:48] <homebrewer> in TERMINAL i can put 'LANG=...' before my command! HOW do I do this in, for example, <alt>F2 run dialog??
[02:48] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, never seen that before, could it be causing the foulup?
[02:49] <squeaks> raintheory, the ubuntu installer will resize ntfs i think
[02:49] <squeaks> do custom partitioning
[02:50] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, it won't let it to start properly after "killing" gdm...
[02:50] <raintheory> squeaks, tried that...  no luck
[02:50] <squeaks> error?
[02:50] <ProN00b> does anyone have a source for the death note movie ?
[02:50] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, I'll try to remove them, but I don't think it will really help
[02:50] <h3xis> ProN00b, pm
[02:50] <ProN00b> oh DAMN
[02:50] <bobby> how do you tell which version of ubuntu you are running?
[02:51] <FurryNemesis> daniel1988, also see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/511/ for my xorg.conf - Everything works, but bear in mind I'm using the legacy drivers + xgl in that
[02:51] <crimsun> bobby: lsb_release -r
[02:51] <cafuego_> bobby: lsb_release -a
[02:51] <stoorty> is there a bonic client specifically for ubuntu??
[02:51] <ProN00b> nobody told me that amsg was clientwide in xchat
[02:51] <cafuego_> stoorty: yes
[02:51] <squeaks> raintheory, if you're trying to install dapper drake, i think the resize utility might be new to edgy
[02:51] <cafuego_> ProN00b: Did you ask?
[02:51] <raintheory> squeaks, ahh okay
[02:51] <bobby> right; what issues will I face doing an upgrade from 5.10 to 6.06? I'm using the automated upgrade
[02:51] <squeaks> also, might want to defragment first
[02:52] <ProN00b> cafuego_, no
[02:52] <raintheory> squeaks, i already have dapper installed dual-boot with windows...  but decided that i need more room on the NTFS side
[02:52] <bobby> I've backed up the squid and routing config so I can't forsee much of an issue though I'm trying to do this as a live upgrade
[02:52] <daniel1988> FurryNemesis, ok, thx. I want to have driver builtin composite support, for better performance

[03:10] <David6717> didn't work
[03:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about I tried that... - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[03:10] <borg> how do i mount my dvdrom ?
[03:10] <noelferreira> it didn't noiesmo. what shoul i do?
[03:10] <David6717> I gotup to pppoeconf
[03:11] <David6717> It gave some error message
[03:11] <David6717> and then quit
[03:11] <bobby> ebroder, can you be more specific.  at what point does ubuntu stop booting?
[03:11] <ebroder> bobby: the bios finishes its thing, then nothing happens
[03:11] <stefg> achandra: see !easysource for a webpage to regenerate your sources.list, but all you have to do is uncomment the universe-entries in the existing /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:11] <ebroder> i see no indication that there's any booting activity
[03:11] <ammiel> Can i get a link to the Ubuntu package repositories?

[03:11] <h3xis> !alternate
[03:11] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[03:11] <stefg> achandra: and the sudo apt-get update, of course
[03:12] <bobby> ebroder, that isn't a good sign... do you have a means to test your hard drive status?
[03:12] <ebroder> bobby: i tried running fsck from the installer. came up clean
[03:12] <ebroder> and the install runs fine
[03:12] <h3xis> anyone know where to find the alternate cd?
[03:13] <bobby> ebroder, interesting; do you just have the one hdd connected to the computer or are you using a pci-ide card?
[03:13] <bobby> h3xis, at the ubuntu cd download site
[03:13] <h3xis> bobby, ty
[03:13] <tirus89> h3xis, anything on that alt install torrent
[03:13] <nalioth> bah, lag
[03:13] <Ice_Wewe> nalioth: what's -r do?
[03:13] <noelferreira> how can i use unzip to extract a lot of files (.zip ... .z01 ... .z02 ..)
[03:13] <h3xis> tirus89, i dont know, what's wrong with getting it from a site?
[03:13] <ebroder> bobby: i have a pci-ide card, but i disconnected it because it was causing problems - installer couldn't decide which drive was hda and which was hde. right now i have one hdd plugged into the motherboard
[03:14] <nalioth> Ice_Wewe: turns off a redirect
[03:14] <Ice_Wewe> noelferreira: shouldn't the program automatically find the rest of the parts to the file?
[03:14] <Ice_Wewe> nalioth: oh, ok
[03:14] <noiesmo> noelferreira, maybe try p7zip and use p7zip -d *.zip
[03:14] <Ice_Wewe> noelferreira: are they all in the same folder?
[03:14] <bobby> noelferreira, read the manual? ... unzip -e file.z01 should work iirc?
[03:14] <tirus89> h3xis, i wouldnt know whats a good site to search torrents,
[03:14] <achandra> stefg: yes, I did this...and still it refuses to work
[03:14] <bobby> noelferreira, why don't you just use file-roller in gnome?
[03:14] <tripppy> ok, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, didnt really help. now it boots into a black screen , rather than error
[03:14] <h3xis> tirus89, i mean the direct ISO download
[03:14] <David6717> anyone know how to set up Qwest DSL with Ubuntu?
[03:14] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: use Google for looking for torrents
[03:14] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: Google indexes all the torrent sites, so you'll get the best results
[03:15] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: uh, not that I'd know >_>
[03:15] <bobby> ebroder, righto - I've had the same problem as you in the past - you'll be happy to know with some stuffing around and a 2.6.18+ kernel it works nicely these days :)
[03:15] <tirus89> Ice_wewe, no crap with it? ^_^ ?
[03:15] <ebroder> bobby: what exactly do you mean?
[03:15] <bobby> ebroder, if you took the pci-ide card out after the last time you did grub-install you will haev to do it again
[03:15] <stefg> achandra: msttcorefonts is a special packages, that downloads the fonts from some sourceforget-site. These have a tendency to be down, so the package install fails
[03:15] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: no, I get pretty accurate hits on what I want
[03:15] <ebroder> bobby: i did a complete reinstall after i pulled it
[03:15] <bobby> ebroder, pci-ide drives hand on the wrong bios information to the kernel and it stuffs it :P
[03:15] <h3xis> tirus89, do you prefer a torrent?
[03:15] <tripppy> im going to re-install ubuntu, is dapper ready?
[03:15] <bobby> ebroder, oh...well that is a problem then
[03:15] <Stephenishere> Hi, i tried to install Mplayer and i think i did it wrong, when i play movies i get a loud hissing sound...
[03:16] <tirus89> h3xis, it would be nice ^_^
[03:16] <h3xis> tirus89, k
[03:16] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: I'd say it works 90% of the time, as long as you're not looking for something that's hard to find, or would show up on a lot of xxx sites
[03:16] <noiesmo> tripppy, go edgy
[03:16] <ebroder> bobby: any chance a different version of ubuntu would work?
[03:16] <achandra> stefg: i see...is there a manual way of installing them?
[03:16] <tripppy> noiesmo, thats wat i meant
[03:16] <bobby> ebroder, which version of ubuntu are you using?
[03:16] <tirus89> ice_wewe, lol
[03:16] <noiesmo> tripppy, yes its ready
[03:16] <David6717> anyone know hwo to set up Qwest DSL on Ubuntu?
[03:16] <ebroder> bobby: edgy
[03:16] <bobby> I always suggest the latest
[03:16] <Ice_Wewe> does anyone know why my V4L module freaks when I unplug my cam (also why nothing can access my cam) and khubd starts using all my CPU time till I reboot?
[03:16] <h3xis> tirus89, http://isohunt.com/torrents/?ihq=ubuntu+alternate click on the first one. should say ubuntu-6.10-alternate-i386.iso
[03:16] <Ice_Wewe> I filed a bug report, but my bug seems to have died, alone and forgotton
[03:16] <stefg> achandra: yes, there is, by putting the right archives into the right places. But don't ask for details, 'cos i don't know them
[03:17] <Ice_Wewe> h3xis: I don' like distro torrents
[03:17] <h3xis> Ice_Wewe, i dont either but tirus89 prefers one
[03:17] <Ice_Wewe> h3xis: unless you're grabbing them the day of, or the day after, there is no one seeding
[03:17] <bobby> ebroder, if the livecd uses the same kernel as edgy installed jump into that and check if dmesg detects your hdd and mobo correctly - there may be an issue with that specific kernel version
[03:17] <tirus89> h3xis, ^_^
[03:17] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: just use an ftp link, it's faster
[03:17] <h3xis> Ice_Wewe, there are 168 seeds
[03:17] <tirus89> ice_wewe, hahaha, right.....
[03:17] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: plus, you don't have to deal with share ratio, etc.
[03:17] <bobby> though it is very odd for grub not to follow on from the bios
[03:18] <tirus89> ice_wewe, i'll stick with the torrents, its what i know right now
[03:18] <bobby> suggests to me maybe an issue with the settings in the bios (reset it to cmos defaults)
[03:18] <noelferreira> how can i use unzip to extract a lot of files (.zip ... .z01 ... .z02 ..)
[03:18] <ebroder> bobby: i could try that
[03:18] <bobby> and then reinstall the mbr (grub-install)
[03:18] <ebroder> ok
[03:18] <Ice_Wewe> tirus89: suit yourself, I prefer direct http/ftp downloads myself. Use wget
[03:18] <bobby> noelferreira, USE FILE-ROLLER
[03:18] <h3xis> noelferreira someone already told you to use unzip *.zip
[03:18] <beck> Umm.
[03:18] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: file roller is useless for RARs, that's my one main complaint
[03:18] <professor> Hey all
[03:19] <professor> I have a question, does anyone run aircrack
[03:19] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, no it's not.  there is a package that adds rar support to file-roller
[03:19] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: I have to use wine and a windows version of unrar to expand any of them
[03:19] <h3xis> professor, i did a year ago
[03:19] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: I've installed that package, and it doesn't expand any of the RARs I have
[03:19] <leros> how do i enable the restricted repository?
[03:19] <clever> professor: i have aircrack and use it every now and then
[03:19] <bobby> file-roller compresses and decompresses everything for me; including parts ...
[03:19] <bobby> so...it works for me :|
[03:19] <bepogi> Hello.  Trying to install JRE on Ubuntu using the terminal.    How do you work it?  Click ok, type ok, get by it... etc?!?!?
[03:19] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: doesn't for me, but I'm on x64
[03:19] <professor> how do I get it from terminal, I want to use it from the interface instead of the terminal
[03:19] <bruenig> leros, it should be enabled by default, paste your /etc/apt/sources.list if you aren't sure
[03:19] <bruenig> !paste | leros
[03:19] <ubotu> leros: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:20] <clever> professor: i dont think aircrack has a gui
[03:20] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, ah righto - I'm still hiding on x86 :)
[03:20] <Ice_Wewe> bepogi: hit 'return/enter'
[03:20] <h3xis> professor, you have to use it in terminal
[03:20] <clever> none that ive seen
[03:20] <professor> really
[03:20] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: you'll find that a h*ll of a lot doesn't work on x64
[03:20] <tirus89> hahah lol, only like hour and a half
[03:20] <professor> I cant get it to work for moe

[03:20] <Ice_Wewe> professor: really
[03:20] <bepogi> yeah.  nothing happens when enter is pressed.
[03:20] <professor> I have tried airdump
[03:20] <Ice_Wewe> professor: I had to do that the other day
[03:20] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, sounds familiar - like using windows_64? :P\
[03:20] <professor> can you private im me
[03:20] <h3xis> tirus89, ive never used the alternate cd so....youre kind of on your own
[03:20] <Ice_Wewe> professor: I used synaptic to install it, just hit return for me
[03:20] <bobby> my mac is 64bit and everything works fine :)
[03:20] <h3xis> tirus89, unless you explain what you se
[03:20] <h3xis> see
[03:20] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: wouldn't know, don't use Windows
[03:20] <willys_fueguino> I have a friend that removed his gaim tray icon and now he cant see the tray of any programs..
[03:20] <professor> yea I did that also
[03:20] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: Core 2 Duo, or G5?
[03:21] <willys_fueguino> could somebody help us??
[03:21] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, neither do I.  though every windows chap I know does :)
[03:21] <professor> but still can not get airodump to work
[03:21] <tirus89> h3xis, ok, i'll give it a shot, i'll just need the basic commands for the install
[03:21] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, G5
[03:21] <bobby> of course
[03:21] <bruenig> willys_fueguino, right click the panel, add to panel, then find the notification area applet and add it
[03:21] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: Can't stand my G4 PowerBook, so slow
[03:21] <leros> bruenig: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/512/
[03:21] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: I got tired of PPC and jumped to x86, then to x64. Been running x64 for a year now... so fast.
[03:21] <professor> it says that I cant get the drivers to reconize
[03:21] <tripppy> wheres the m5# for edgy?
[03:21] <h3xis> tirus89, i'll try :S
[03:21] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: single core stuff though
[03:21] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, I've got a G4 powerbook; does what I need... so appart from neo office being slow I haven't noticed an issue
[03:21] <professor> it keeps booting me out to the web site
[03:22] <bruenig> leros, it is enabled, the first line has it "eb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy main restricted universe multiverse"
[03:22] <Matthew_W> Help!
[03:22] <Matthew_W> lol
[03:22] <bruenig> wow that was hilarious
[03:22] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, I'm thinking about making the switch when debian releases x64 branch as stable
[03:22] <professor> and what is with Edgy
[03:22] <leros> bruenig, ok thanks
[03:22] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: found out after my dad started working at Freescale that the PB G4 probably would'a had a dual core, except the group that was making the CPU delivered almost 2 years late
[03:22] <bobby> bruenig, I hope you missed the d from the start of that line
[03:22] <professor> I loaded it in my computer and, sometimes when I am on a program it just logs off the program
[03:22] <bruenig> bobby, yeah I did
[03:22] <professor> so I went back to 6.06
[03:22] <Matthew_W> Here's the thing, I have no GRUB any longer, because I installed windows!  ... on a separate partition of course.. when I do sudo grub-install I get an error... no corresponding bios candidate... any help is greatly needed.
[03:23] <bruenig> No Grub!
[03:23] <bruenig> lol
[03:23] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, mmm... big shame about the delays too as I'm a big fan of the ppc series
[03:23] <stefg> !grub
[03:23] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:23] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: I was, but it's kinda SLOW
[03:23] <Matthew_W> Checking now
[03:23] <noiesmo> Matthew_W, so you running livecd
[03:23] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: only thing that really gets me is that Apple choose to include AGP 4X with this CPU
[03:23] <noelferreira> Ice_Wewe: yes fiels are in the same folder
[03:23] <Matthew_W> noiesmo:  yep
[03:23] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: my 1999 IBM has AGP 4X
[03:24] <professor> so how do I get airodump to work when it says the drivers are not correct.  I have loaded in the correct drivers still cant get it to work.  I have a compact laptop
[03:24] <noiesmo> Matthew_W, you need to chroot in to the linux install then do grub
[03:24] <professor> and I am using ndiswrapper for my desktop
[03:24] <funkdollar> Matthew_W : if you try grub-install /dev/hda (or whatever you have?)
[03:24] <bepogi> Forget JRE for now.  Now when I open the Synaptic Package Manager, I get a "E:dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.  But nothing happened when I opened the terminal and sudo that.
[03:24] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: I know PPC has support for PCI-E, you see it on the G5.
[03:24] <Matthew_W> funkdollar: No corresponding bios drive X_X
[03:24] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: their Intel laptops ship with PCI-E, they were just too damn lazy to redesign the chipset for the G4
[03:24] <noiesmo> !chroot | Matthew_W
[03:24] <ubotu> Matthew_W: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[03:25] <noelferreira> people i got this erros: :  zipfile claims to be last disk of a multi-part archive;
[03:25] <noelferreira>   attempting to process anyway, assuming all parts have been concatenated
[03:25] <noelferreira>   together in order.  Expect "errors" and warnings...true multi-part support
[03:25] <noelferreira>   doesn't exist yet (coming soon).
[03:25] <noelferreira> sorry for the paste
[03:25] <funkdollar> ls /dev/hd* and then try hdparm -I on each one of them to see if hdparm recognizes the device ?
[03:25] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: and this thing with DDR2 RAM, nice for giving me a price break, but it runs at a slower speed than any x86/64 notebook, so I can't use any of my Apple RAM in a PC notebook
[03:25] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: horrible
[03:25] <professor> ok so Im new to linux is ubuntu the best version
[03:25] <bruenig> !best
[03:25] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[03:25] <professor> I mean I like it alot
[03:26] <Ice_Wewe> professor: well, you're in the Ubuntu room, so the common bias is going to be 'yes it is'
[03:26] <bobby> lol
[03:26] <bruenig> professor, gentoo is far better, try your hand at that
[03:26] <professor> lol
[03:26] <bimberi> professor: yes, but this is a biased forum ;)
[03:26] <lumgwada> hi, have there been any reports of instability to Firefox (Dapper) patches? I have a number of sites I that make Firefox blink out of existance.
[03:26] <Ice_Wewe> professor: it depends on the person, some will tell you yes, others will disagree
[03:26] <jvai> sik.. lol
[03:26] <noelferreira> any help with unzip?
[03:26] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, so you're running ubuntu on your mac?
[03:26] <professor> I hear ya
[03:26] <Ice_Wewe> bruenig: Gentoo is the ultimate linux
[03:26] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: no, it doesn't work
[03:26] <HLM> !ubuntu
[03:26] <funkdollar> folks anyone here running gnome ? After a while when showing the desktop my icons on the desktop redraw NOT instantaneously which is annoying ...
[03:26] <ubotu> Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuHowCome
[03:27] <bobby> professor, it depends on what you want to do with linux.  if you want a simple to use desktop I recommend ubuntu...if you want to sink your teeth into a more 'purist' distrobution try out debian.
[03:27] <HymnToLife> there is no such thing as an "ultimate Linux"
[03:27] <professor> isnt ubuntu debian based
[03:27] <HymnToLife> please don't feed the trolls
[03:27] <FurryNemesis> HymnToLife, yep
[03:27] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, rubbish; gentoo has some huge draw backs like the rest
[03:27] <borg> how do i mount my dvdrom ?
[03:27] <bruenig> gentoo has no drawbacks
[03:28] <bobby> bruenig, re-read
[03:28] <funkdollar> I mean is there any alternative for icon placement ? I was a long time openbox user in the past and some gnome things really annoy me ...
[03:28] <bruenig> borg, it should automount when you put dvds in it
[03:28] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: aside from compiling everything, and I can't figure out how to install it, it's good
[03:28] <Stephenishere> where is wine located after install?
[03:28] <professor> in terminal
[03:28] <bruenig> well installing it is impossible but I mean that is not a big issue
[03:28] <professor> or right click
[03:28] <willys_fueguino> bruenig: thanx a lot. (its the very first time that I see a tip like that work with only 1 try ;-) ) thanx
[03:28] <noiesmo> borg, mount /dev/hdx /media/cdromx
[03:28] <bobby> bruenig, it's package management is shocking.  after two years a gentoo box would need to be blown away if it had high usage.  there are other issues as well.  most of which are very off topic for this channel
[03:29] <bruenig> more bobby FUD
[03:29] <bobby> Stephenishere, you run things with it...  wine windows.exe
[03:29] <professor> I find that after downloading a package I cant find it
[03:29] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: I disagree, emerge is one of the best package managers available
[03:29] <Stephenishere> Yeah but i dont know where the .exe file saved to
[03:29] <Ice_Wewe> Stephenishere: umm, in your path?
[03:29] <rbil> Stephenishere: after install, .wine in your home directory is where the "windows" environment is stored
[03:29] <bobby> Ice_Wewe, indeed it is; I'm talking about long term package degredation
[03:29] <Ice_Wewe> Stephenishere: well then do a locate
[03:29] <Ice_Wewe> bobby: what exactly is the issue?
[03:29] <professor> where is everyone from
[03:29] <Stephenishere> ah i didnt know there was a . in front of it
[03:29] <Stephenishere> i was trying just cd wine :)
[03:30] <Ice_Wewe> Stephenishere: make a sym link
[03:30] <Gothfunc> since moving to beryl, i find the taskbar redundant and obtrusive.  i don't suppose there are panel plugins available are there?  a notification area for windows that want attention would be more useful to me than a panel full of idle tasks.
[03:30] <blanky> Gothfunc: #ubuntu-xgl maybe?
[03:30] <bruenig> Gothfunc, remove the taskbar
[03:30] <blanky> Gothfunc: or even #beryl
[03:30] <Ice_Wewe> ugh, why would anyone want to run xgl?
[03:30] <professor> do you have to compile ever program you install?
[03:30] <gop> hey
[03:30] <bobby> Gothfunc, interesting.  no it doesn't exist at the moment though adding it as a requested feature to gnome would be very handy
[03:30] <bruenig> Gothfunc, right beside that little view desktop button, right click there and then remove task list
[03:30] <gop> how do I install drivers
[03:30] <gop> for my ati tv wonder
[03:30] <gop> card
[03:30] <blanky> professor: sudo apt-get install <programname>
[03:30] <Ice_Wewe> gop: synaptic
[03:31] <Gothfunc> blanky: is the gnome panel anything to do with beryl or xgl?
[03:31] <gop> for tv tunner
[03:31] <professor> yea but is that a compile
[03:31] <professor> as well
[03:31] <blanky> Gothfunc: well, you're asking for a plugin in beryl, no?
[03:31] <Ice_Wewe> gop: can't help you, don't know if it's supported
[03:31] <Gothfunc> bruenig: then i wouldn't know when a task is flashing
[03:31] <funkdollar> Ice_Wewe, Xgl i dunno - but Aiglx really is something
[03:31] <Gothfunc> bobby:  i wonder if it would be hard to add myself
[03:31] <bobby> aiglx is integrated into xorg 7.1 now
[03:31] <Gothfunc> blanky:  no, in gnome panel
[03:32] <bruenig> Ice_Wewe, just a suggestion, for channel sanity it is probably best to suggest command line fixes at least as far as apt-get is concerned because unless you are absolutely positive you know exactly how to go step by step in the gui and you fail nobody can pick up where you leave off
[03:32] <Gothfunc> blanky:  i was asking if it used plugins
[03:32] <professor> I downloaded some nes similators, how do I get game on them
[03:32] <bruenig> professor, get some roms
[03:32] <funkdollar> bobby i used to run this on edgy a day ago with the open source radeon driver
[03:32] <Ice_Wewe> funkdollar: I find that XGL is a waste of hardware and energy. While I'm not a 'save the planet' person, I feel that those useless effects should be saved for causes that need a good feature alot more than linux does, such as Vista or OS X
[03:32] <professor> wher
[03:32] <professor> e
[03:32] <bobby> professor, read their manual pages
[03:32] <Shocka311> If I delete my HD and re dl ubuntu will my screen name for IRC chat be taken or can I still login as shocka311?
[03:32] <professor> I tried

[03:32] <professor> I a noob
[03:32] <bruenig> !enter
[03:32] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:32] <robertj> hey all, what's the fastest intel 3d accelerator out there?
[03:32] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: did u register your nick with the nickserv?
[03:33] <Shocka311> Ice_wewe: I don't know.
[03:33] <Ice_Wewe> professor: download some ROM files
[03:33] <bruenig> Shocka311, it won't be taken, if you registered it, nickserv keeps them
[03:33] <funkdollar> Well i am really shocked at the slowness of gnome redrawing my desktop with icons on it
[03:33] <professor> ok where from
[03:33] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: well type '/msg nickserv register <password>'
[03:33] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: at least I think that's what you do
[03:33] <noelferreira> help please: file #1:  bad zipfile offset (local header sig):  4
[03:33] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, what does free -m give you?
[03:34] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: and then, yes, when you trash your HDD and come back crying for help, you can use your nick
[03:34] <funkdollar> and i agree that this development energy could have been spen on usability rather than showoff ...
[03:34] <Shocka311> at a command prompt or just here on IRC?
[03:34] <bruenig> it is linux, if you want to develop something do it. Don't complain that the developers who do so for free are spending it on things you don't want them to

[03:35] <gop> bruenig,  but that same is argued with microsoft products
[03:35] <funkdollar> the first line
[03:35] <gop> that they spend time on stuff we don't want to
[03:35] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: in xchat, or whatever client you're using
[03:35] <gop> the same arugment is said about paid software
[03:35] <bruenig> gop, that is closed source, you can't do anything about that. You can for linux
[03:35] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: just please, for the love of all that is hardwarely, make sure you put a slash in front of it, otherwise we can all see what password you're gonna use
[03:35] <gop> bruenig,  hmm
[03:36] <gop> you mean with open source my grandmother can have some input on what features she wants / needs
[03:36] <Ice_Wewe> man, where is the stalker bot that tells everyone what city you're coming from
[03:36] <gop> what if my grandmother paid for ubuntu distro
[03:36] <gop> and support
[03:36] <Ice_Wewe> gop: no, but you can tell her she can, just for kicks
[03:36] <gop> Ice_Wewe,  :)
[03:36] <gop> lol
[03:36] <bruenig> gop, I am saying that people are developing for free what they want, don't complain about that. If you want something else developed you do it, don't tell these people who don't get paid by you to switch their focuses.
[03:36] <Falstius> your grandma could always post a bug report or feature request to launch pad ;)
[03:36] <gop> I was joking
[03:37] <Riyonuk> I keep getting the error message, in synaptic package manager, that I cant download the index thing, you know when you press refresh. http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/main/source/Sources.gz: Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[03:37] <noelferreira> help please: file #1:  bad zipfile offset (local header sig):  4
[03:37] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, hmm, everytime you hit f5 it just chugs?
[03:37] <gop> bruenig,  good point
[03:37] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: probably an incomplete file.
[03:37] <lufis> What's the difference between kill and killall?
[03:37] <gop> bruenig,  but with closed source you software your paying some to code
[03:37] <gop> and in the end
[03:37] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: my guess is that the gzip decompressor is getting an unexpected EOF
[03:37] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, what do you mean?
[03:37] <gop> he not doing what we want
[03:37] <gop> like a secure os
[03:37] <gop> e.g. windows
[03:37] <gop> they make it unsecure
[03:37] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, :o >_> what does that mean?
[03:37] <bruenig> gop, then complain and leave, but Ice_Wewe is crying about beryl developers and so was some other guy
[03:37] <gop> but we pay them to make it secure
[03:38] <gop> bruenig,  I don't complain
[03:38] <gop> I am happy
[03:38] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: it means the header is probably incomplete, and you can't get somewhere without complete map directions
[03:38] <gop> just saying the arguments on both side
[03:38] <funkdollar> FurryNemesis, its weird: if i do hard redraw thing on the desktop like moving windows around fast then reverting immediately to an empty desktop make the desktop icon redrawing choke
[03:38] <gop> to be objective
[03:38] <gop> I am happy
[03:38] <Shocka311> Ice_wewe: k i did that and it sent a message to nickserve, Am I registered now?
[03:38] <bruenig> gop, you are totally confused as to what the argument is
[03:38] <Ice_Wewe> gop: ok, so be objective while you code your grandmothers feature requests
[03:38] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, well, what if it means I cant get my audacious :(
[03:38] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: did nickserv say anything to you?
[03:38] <funkdollar> and after selecting another wallpaper and back the same again things fix
[03:38] <Falstius> lufis: kill takes a process ID, killall kills everything that starts with some sequence of leters.
[03:38] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: audacity?
[03:38] <bruenig> gop, there was no microsoft vs. linux argument. There was a "should you complain about linux developers and what they chose to develop or not" argument
[03:39] <Shocka311> Ice_wewe: no
[03:39] <lufis> Falstius: ah, neat. thanks
[03:39] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, Im pretty sure its audacious
[03:39] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: then I doubt it, want me to check?
[03:39] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: if you're talking about the audio editing software, it's Audacity
[03:39] <gop> bruenig,  oh
[03:39] <gop> good point
[03:39] <Shocka311> Ice_wewe: please
[03:39] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: if you're talking about something else, then it's Audacious
[03:39] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, although BMP seems pretty good
[03:39] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, -__- I just said that
[03:40] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: '/msg nickserv register <nick> <password>' I think
[03:40] <bruenig> you don't put your nick
[03:40] <bruenig> nickserv knows your nick since you are messaging them with it
[03:40] <gop> my point is I tought ubuntu was more user friendly user inputed distro bruenig
[03:40] <gop> I might be wrong
[03:40] <gop> :)
[03:40] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: yeah, what bruenig said
[03:40] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: you just said what?
[03:40] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, recent problem? Updated anything recently?
[03:40] <Shocka311> I typed /msg nickserve <password>
[03:40] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: no e on nickserv
[03:41] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, -___- that I wanted audacious, and you started talking about audacity >_>
[03:41] <bruenig> gop, it was over beryl, which is a fancy eye candy thing and they were complaining that developers shouldn't waste their time on it.
[03:41] <Shocka311> ah
[03:41] <Ice_Wewe> FurryNemesis: that's one field where I wish linux were more like Windows. Ubuntu needs a backup program where you can select to revert the system back 2 weeks or whatever
[03:41] <Gothfunc> any idea what the gnome panel program name is?
[03:41] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: ok, well sorry.
[03:41] <funkdollar> FurryNemesis, i have a clean edgy install - well i had beryl and uninstalled it and also played with the gcong setting regarding metacity performance features.
[03:41] <Riyonuk> tis ok :)
[03:41] <bruenig> gop, not over ubuntu and the ubuntu developers over the beryl developers as if they should for whatever reason they should abandon their project and do something else
[03:41] <gop> bruenig,  oh I see oh that just plain stupid
[03:41] <gop> developer should do what they want
[03:42] <gop> bruenig,  your right
[03:42] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, that probably did it
[03:42] <gop> I see your point
[03:42] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: make sure your synaptic/apt-get has all the sources added (like universe and multiverse), and if it isn't there, go Google hunting
[03:42] <crimsun> Gothfunc: gnome-panel, surprisingly enough
[03:42] <gop> bruenig,  I was confused
[03:42] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, got a backup?
[03:42] <Shocka311> it didn't do anything.
[03:42] <bruenig> !info audacious
[03:42] <ubotu> Package audacious does not exist in any distro I know
[03:42] <funkdollar> FurryNemesis, well a backup is out of the question i am afraid
[03:42] <Ice_Wewe> funkdollar: your gnome-panel uses up all your CPU time unless you kill it?
[03:42] <rbil> Ice_Wewe: only toy operating systems need "restore points"
[03:42] <bruenig> Riyonuk, I do not believe their is a package called audacious
[03:42] <Riyonuk> Yes, but I heard, or read somewhere that if I download programs not from the repositores, they wont get updated
[03:42] <Ice_Wewe> rbil: well I guess Ubuntu is a 'toy system' cause it's sure be useful
[03:43] <Gothfunc> crimsun:  ah, i did look for that, but must be blind.  guess i should have used grep
[03:43] <bruenig> Riyonuk, what is audacious?
[03:43] <Ice_Wewe> rbil: it would also be useful for OS X when Apple's reccomended update screws your machine
[03:43] <Riyonuk> bruenig, :o a music player
[03:43] <Noob2million> hello to all in the room.. I am trying to install ubuntu on my 1 GB usb key so I can boot to ubuntu.. has anyone here done this yet ? How did it go ?
[03:43] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, how about getting a clean gcong off your install cd?
[03:43] <funkdollar> Ice_Wewe, not at all my cpu is pretty low the proble is that desktop redrawing some times is slow
[03:43] <Ice_Wewe> Noob2million: tell us how it goes
[03:43] <FurryNemesis> Noob2million, nope, I use DSL off the stick
[03:43] <rance> is there a way in a bash script to detect the version of ubuntu a machine is running?
[03:43] <Riyonuk> bruenig, audacious-media-player.org
[03:43] <bruenig> Riyonuk, well there is no package in the ubuntu repos with that
[03:43] <Noob2million> so far I'm following several instuctions
[03:44] <crimsun> rance: parse ``lsb_release -r''
[03:44] <Ice_Wewe> funkdollar: no idea, sorry. In the test versions of Edgy the gnome-panel was QUITE broken
[03:44] <Riyonuk> why?
[03:44] <genben> Noob2million: hi, i am doing exactly the same thing, look here => http://nsaunders.wordpress.com/2006/11/06/a-usb-stick-grub-and-ubuntu/
[03:44] <Noob2million> does DSL have a graphic interface ?
[03:44] <funkdollar> FurryNemesis, how could that be done ?
[03:44] <gop> !info kdetv
[03:44] <ubotu> kdetv: TV viewer for KDE. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.9-1 (edgy), package size 1356 kB, installed size 5336 kB
[03:44] <bruenig> Riyonuk, what version of linux are you running
[03:44] <Gothfunc> bruenig:  beryl isn't merely eyecandy imo
[03:44] <Riyonuk> ubuntu 6.10
[03:44] <bruenig> Gothfunc, well that was a simple explanation
[03:44] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: because no one has bothered to make a package
[03:44] <Noob2million> checking link now genben.. brb
[03:45] <Gothfunc> bruenig:  ok sure
[03:45] <genben> rbil: i think that Ice_Wewe may be a troll
[03:45] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, er..... I assume there's a gcong.conf file somewhere in the .metacity folder if you can access that - it should be clean
[03:45] <Shocka311> ice_wewe: I typed all that but I don't know if it rtegistered.
[03:45] <Riyonuk> Ice_Wewe, dont they just drag-and-drop the package into there repositores?
[03:45] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, but that's a pure guess
[03:45] <bruenig> Riyonuk, ok do the following sudo bash -c "echo 'deb http://static.audacious-media-player.org/ubuntu edgy main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list" && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install audacious
[03:45] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: just a thought, sometimes people would like to know what kernel version you're running, type 'uname -a' to find out
[03:45] <bruenig> Riyonuk, do all of that
[03:45] <superkirbyartist> How can I enable the desktop in Ubuntu Edgy?
[03:45] <Ice_Wewe> genben: rat!
[03:45] <genben> Ice_Wewe: ha
[03:45] <FurryNemesis> copy it to usb stick or something then replace I suppose
[03:45] <funkdollar> FurryNemesis, i have been told many times never to mess with a working linux box :-)
[03:46] <Riyonuk> bruenig, why cant I just get the .deb from there site?
[03:46] <Ice_Wewe> Shocka311: type '/msg nickserv identify <password>' and if it tells you that you've already identified, then you're registered
[03:46] <bruenig> Riyonuk, do you want automatic updates?
[03:46] <superkirbyartist> I can't see the wallpaper or the icons.
[03:46] <FurryNemesis> funkdollar, rubbish, if it's not broken, tweak it
[03:46] <Riyonuk> bruenig, yup
[03:46] <Ice_Wewe> genben: I'm just here spreading my prejudice, like everyone else. Leave me alone.
[03:46] <bruenig> Riyonuk, copy and paste that lovely command
[03:46] <genben> Ice_Wewe: K
[03:46] <rance> crimsun: cool man, thanks thats exactly what I needed
[03:46] <Ice_Wewe> genben: :P
[03:47] <Riyonuk> o_O look at all the text
[03:47] <superkirbyartist> Can someone please help me with enabling the desktop in Ubuntu Edgy?  I see no wallpaper and cannot add any icons.
[03:47] <funkdollar> FurryNemesis, that was definately not my opinion ! Any other alternatives for icon placement ? I see many docks in screenshots like mac osx dock
[03:47] <Shocka311> Ice_wewe: it wrote back and said Identify ****
[03:47] <tirus89> h3xis, whats the command to get to a terminal
[03:47] <bruenig> Riyonuk, make sure you copy and paste it all at once on one line
[03:47] <funkdollar> What are those - gdesklets ?
[03:47] <quad3d> have you open up your eyes?
[03:47] <Ice_Wewe> Riyonuk: sudo bash -c "echo 'deb http://static.audacious-media-player.org/ubuntu edgy main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list" && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install audacious
[03:47] <h3xis> tirus89, are you in X or what
[03:47] <genben> Noob2million: don't follow several instructions, bookmaark them all, then work through them 1 at a time, until it fails or succeeds
[03:48] <tirus89> h3xis, na, i just need to get a terminal
[03:48] <crimsun> Ice_Wewe: um, it's not that no has has bothered to make a package but that whoever is currently packaging it externally hasn't been arsed to go through our submission and review process.
[03:48] <Riyonuk> yeah...W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://static.audacious-media-player.org edgy/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/static.audacious-media-player.org_ubuntu_dists_edgy_main_binary-i386_Packages)
[03:48] <Riyonuk> W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
[03:48] <Riyonuk> E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[03:48] <Ice_Wewe> bruenig: I figured if he saw it from everyone else in the room, he might get a clue
[03:48] <h3xis> tirus89, what are you in now?
[03:48] <superkirbyartist> Can someone please help me with enabling the desktop in Ubuntu Edgy?  I see no wallpaper and cannot add any icons.

I've established a connection to my office's openvpn server, got an IP address (on interface tap99)  but am still routing traffic over my 802.11g interface (ath0). does anyone know how I can change the default route so traffic flows through tap99 instead of ath0 ?

[03:48] <ebroder> shut up
[03:48] <mcquaid> is anyone knowledgeable with dns servers using bind?
[03:48] <jvai> aihgt ppl
[03:48] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: SHUT UP
[03:48] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: run nautilus and go away
[03:48] <poorenglish> superkirbyartist: dont spam, try "nautilus"
[03:49] <Falstius> tirus89: ctrl+alt+f1 to get a terminal and alt-f7 to get back to the desktop works, or select terminal from the applications->accessories menu.
[03:49] <mcquaid> i'm following a howto and got it working for one domain name, but it falls apart when I try to set up multiple
[03:49] <Riyonuk> bruenig, yes, and it keeps mentioning gzip problems in  the middle of the huge block of text
[03:49] <FurryNemesis> superkirbyartist, metacity --enable do anything?
[03:49] <h3xis> tirus89, see what Falstius said
[03:49] <Ice_Wewe> bruenig: oops, someone took away your OPs
[03:49] <Shocka311> It just said >nicksrev< identify ****
[03:49] <Riyonuk> dont help him >_>
[03:49] <Ice_Wewe> bruenig: either that, or chanserv is on holiday
[03:49] <bruenig> I am not an op  was calling the ops
[03:49] <Ice_Wewe> bruenig: ah, ok
[03:49] <Riyonuk> I knew Automatix would cause a problem :p
[03:49] <crimsun> there's normally not a need to call the ops. We're around.
[03:49] <superkirbyartist> Nautilus is a FRIGGIN FILE MANAGER!
[03:49] <bruenig> !automatix | Riyonuk
[03:49] <ubotu> Riyonuk: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[03:49] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: no shit
[03:50] <Riyonuk> superkirdbyartist, no wai
[03:50] <Riyonuk> XD
[03:50] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: welcome to real life
[03:50] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: how else did you want your wallpaper?
[03:50] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: I think we have some idiot-on-a-platter left
[03:50] <superkirbyartist> So how is that supposed to help me in getting a wallpaper and icons?
[03:50] <Riyonuk> bruenig, sure would have been nice to know that before, you know like a sticky or something T_T
[03:50] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: well for starters, that's sorta the whole PURPOSE of a file manager
[03:50] <crimsun> superkirbyartist: nautilus isn't -just- a file manager.
[03:50] <superkirbyartist> Ice_Wewe: Well windows doesn't "disable the desktop" just because it feels like it!
[03:51] <Riyonuk> ok
[03:51] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: you're not going to have icons and a wallpaper just come out of no where
[03:51] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: that's because what you see in Windows is a FILE MANAGER
[03:51] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: that's because FINDER is a FILE MANAGER
[03:51] <superkirbyartist> Well they were there not long ago.
[03:51] <bruenig> Riyonuk, it is hard to nail down automatix problems, it is frustratingly hard
[03:51] <Riyonuk> bruenig, well I uninstall automatix, will it correct everything?
[03:51] <w3ccv> mcquaid, IIRC you have to set up multiple domains - and in the hints (?) file you name all servers
[03:51] <Riyonuk> -_-
[03:51] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: Explorer is a FILE MANAGER
[03:51] <poorenglish> bruenig: nice joke xD
[03:51] <Falstius> Riyonuk: not likely :)
[03:51] <carutsu> hello, i'm looking for something for creating animations, something like flash
[03:51] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: en.wikipedia.org/file_manager
[03:51] <w3ccv> mcquaid, each domain gets a seperate set of files
[03:51] <bruenig> Riyonuk, no, the damage has already been done
[03:52] <carutsu> is there a program? or must i surrender myself and run windows?
[03:52] <superkirbyartist> The point is, I had a problem in Xfce, and #xubuntu helped me better.
[03:52] <noelferreira> how can i find wath file is corrupted from a list of zip files with this error: file #1:  bad zipfile offset (local header sig):  4
[03:52] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: oh, sorry, en.wikipedia.org/wili/File_Manager
[03:52] <mcquaid> w3ccv, yes i think i've got that far, but what about rev.0.168.192.in-addr.arpa file?
[03:52] <mcquaid> how do you specify each there?
[03:52] <Falstius> carutsu: do you want to create flash or just animations?
[03:52] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, well perhaps if you weren't such a moron and spamming although for whatever reasons these idiots respond to it
[03:52] <superkirbyartist> Sorry, Ice_Wewe, learn how to spell.
[03:52] <carutsu> Falstius animations as easy as flash, not frame by frame
[03:53] <zekesmz> dang...my post got lost at the very start of superkirbyartists spam explosion. I'm looking for some tips on changing my default networking route to flow through a vpn interface instead of the default 802.11 one. any takers?
[03:53] <bruenig> well if Ice_Wewe wants to talk to you that is like killing two birds with one stone so keep going
[03:53] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: I will once you're less ignorant
[03:53] <superkirbyartist> Bruenig: If I say it twice it should be enough.  But I guess not so I repeated my post.
[03:53] <Ice_Wewe> bruenig: ?
[03:53] <crimsun> superkirbyartist: / Ice_Wewe: kill the hostility, please.
[03:53] <Ice_Wewe> crimsun: sure
[03:53] <Riyonuk> but I just installed ubuntu
[03:53] <Riyonuk> I dont want to do it again
[03:53] <Riyonuk> I hate life >_>
[03:53] <Riyonuk> bruenig, *sigh* Ill do it
[03:53] <Falstius> carutsu: you could probably run the flash movie creater in wine (I can't remember the name, I haven't done it since highschool when we thought flash was new and cool and not just used for really annoying advertisements)
[03:53] <linux1> anyone heard about any  problems with sound recording in 6.10 being very low , as in mic gain is too low?
[03:53] <bruenig> Riyonuk, well if you just started it, shouldn't lose too much
[03:54] <Falstius> Riyonuk: atleast it doesn't take as long as installing windows :)
[03:54] <bruenig> Riyonuk, if you have problems installing something or want some functionality that doesn't exist just come in here, people will be able to find that for sure
[03:54] <w3ccv> mcquaid, I'm looking on anotheremachine wait-1
[03:54] <Riyonuk> bruenig, whats the proper way to do this? Just install over ubuntu partion? I have 2, ubuntu and windows
[03:54] <mcquaid> w3ccv, ok
[03:54] <crimsun> linux1: there are known issues depending on which codec you use.
[03:54] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: you can edit the Xfce config files to include your own custom background, if you wish
[03:54] <noelferreira> please i need urgent help
[03:54] <Riyonuk> Falstius, ubuntu takes longer to isntall than windows >_>
[03:54] <bruenig> Riyonuk, yeah format the ubuntu partition and go again
[03:54] <noelferreira> how can i find wath file is corrupted from a list of zip files with this error: file #1:  bad zipfile offset (local header sig):  4
[03:54] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: but unless you glue the icons to your monitor, they aren't gonna show up cause they feel like it
[03:54] <linux1> well just the wav recorder
[03:54] <carutsu> Falstius so there's not any free app for creating animations? here's what i need, i'm doing a site, i want the buttons to be animated, however i will not use flash just for that so ill create the buttons and export them to gifs
[03:54] <bruenig> noelferreira, looks like file #1, perhaps it is the first file?
[03:54] <linux1> crimsun, sound recorder, wav
[03:55] <Riyonuk> ok
[03:55] <crimsun> linux1: no, the codec. See ``tail -2 /proc/asound/oss/sndstat''
[03:55] <superkirbyartist> I'm sorry, I guess my point wan't clear enough, but: all of a sudden my wallpaper and icons dissapeared, and I didn't ask for it.
[03:55] <Falstius> Riyonuk: no ... I can install ubuntu in 30 mins, windows takes a minimum of 2 hours and more for all the configuration.
[03:55] <Riyonuk> Ill be back in what 30min -_-
[03:55] <Ice_Wewe> linux1: what about cranking up the gain in gnome-volume-manager
[03:55] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: you never told us that
[03:55] <Riyonuk> Falstius, I dont use normal windows ;) it takes less than 2min
[03:55] <linux1> crimsun: ive installed w32codecs, and the gain is all the way up
[03:55] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: "Can someone please help me with enabling the desktop in Ubuntu Edgy?  I see no wallpaper and cannot add any icons."
 I gave you command, the output from which you need to tell me.
[03:56] <Riyonuk> Falstius, seems like ubuntu takes forever
[03:56] <linux1> ahh ok
[03:56] <crimsun> a command, even
[03:56] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: enabling the desktop... you could've been vaguer, and still been mad as to why we didn't understand what you were asking
[03:56] <Riyonuk> :p
[03:56] <carutsu> Falstius yea i know that, but the button has to move, so i need to make a gif i found that GAIM can do animations but FRAME by frame so i'd have to create like 12 frames, and i'm not a very artistic guy
[03:56] <superkirbyartist> bruenig: You will need to read COC again too, I guess.
[03:56] <Topslack> Is their some kind of problem right now with the mythtv packages? Apt-cache finds nothing and I've uncommented all of the sources
[03:56] <Falstius> carutsu: I don't know of any, but I'm not a graphics person.  Try searching synaptic.
[03:57] <carutsu> thank you
[03:57] <w3ccv> mcquaid, yes, you have to set up a file for rev.0.168.192.in-addr.arpa and populate it.  just like the others, I don't remember the exact syntax, but it soulds like you have the how-to and that _should_ guide you :-)

[03:57] <kernele> a LiveUSB will be nice.
[03:58] <devkinetic> carutsu : their may be a way to do them in gimp or some kind of extension for it
[03:58] <Falstius> superkirbyartist: if you want help for free, it is best to be polite.
[03:58] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: no, I like to work in the back, that way I can let other people deal with the idiots... sorry, couldn't think of a better term
[03:58] <superkirbyartist> Guess what?  Your "job" is to be a volounteer, then.
[03:58] <mcquaid> w3ccv, when I try to restart bind9 i get rndc: connect failed: connection refused
[03:58] <linux1> crimsun: yes
[03:58] <mcquaid> wasn't getting that with just the one
[03:58] <genben> Ice_Wewe: i like your style, or lack thereof
[03:58] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, it is not my job, and I will help if I know, If nobody knows what you are asking or how to help it, they won't respond, what else do you want
[03:58] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: [sarcasm]  well good luck getting help with your next problem [/sarcasm]
[03:58] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, if nobody knows there is nothing they can do
[03:59] <Ice_Wewe> genben: thanks, I've been told I'm a no BS guy. If you're computers dead, I won't pad it
[03:59] <funkdollar> thanks folks ...
[03:59] <crimsun> linux1: is it muted?
[03:59] <genben> Ice_Wewe: haha, cool
[03:59] <Ice_Wewe> genben: sorry Sir, your computer is totally dead, no repairing it, get a new one
[03:59] <superkirbyartist> bruenig and Ice_Wewe, if you don't understand, you just ask to elaborate.
[03:59] <Ice_Wewe> genben: ...Next
[03:59] <crimsun> linux1: please pastebin your ``amixer'' output
[03:59] <carutsu> devkinetic: ok, thank you i'll search to see what i can find
[03:59] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, nobody in this channel understood, you want 898 requests to elaborate?
[03:59] <aleka> xdocker question.. when trying to dra\g and drop apps in the docker, I am getting an error "Grabbing the mouse failed with "AlreadyGrabbed"
[04:00] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: well, when you spam the same vague message 7 times, we don't really feel like asking the spammer for MORE details
[04:00] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, you realize the impracticality of such a policy
[04:00] <devkinetic> why is my atp-get going 35 kbs from us.arcive.ubuntu.com
[04:00] <aleka> sorry that would be kxdocker and not xdocker
[04:00] <genben> devkinetic: heavy server load?
[04:00] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, the policy is, if you don't know, you don't say anything. People had no idea so they didn't respond.
[04:00] <superkirbyartist> So much for "humanity to others"
[04:00] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: patience is a virtue
[04:00] <w3ccv> mcquaid, Looking at the site you pointed to - yes, follow the example for the zone 1.128.192.inaddr.arpa  It's not someting you really need - it's your own local network and unless you do a reverse lookup for a local machine you'll never use it.
[04:00] <noelferreira> bruenig: i have one file .zip and other 7 files .z01 .... .z02 ........ .z07 . my question is wich file is #1?
[04:00] <Falstius> carutsu: there is a program called "gem" that might be what you're looking for.  Or blender, it is for 3D stuff but might do 2D also.
[04:00] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: well, we'll be glad to be humane to others when they aren't complete idiots with ADHD
[04:01] <devkinetic> genben it must be becuase when it grabs stuff from any other server im getting 2mb/s
[04:01] <linux1> crimsun pastebin url?
[04:01] <crimsun> linux1: see the topic.
[04:01] <Topslack> Can anyone offer any help as to why I can't seem to get apt-get install mythtv to find any packages?
[04:01] <carutsu> Falstius thank you!! i'll look for them
[04:01] <Ice_Wewe> genben: how was that?
[04:01] <crimsun> Topslack: enable multiverse.
[04:01] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, nobody knows, this is linux, go post on the forums, go to #ubuntuforums or any other place. We aren't paid, we are in here helping to the best of our ability.  We simply didn't respond because we didn't know how to solve your problem
[04:01] <genben> devkinetic: most likely
[04:01] <superkirbyartist> Ice_Wewe, SHUT UP!
[04:01] <Ice_Wewe> superkirbyartist: after you
[04:01] <genben> Ice_Wewe: succint, but i think you are labouring your point
[04:02] <crimsun> ok, that's really enough.
[04:02] <enat> hey, i'm trying to burn an svcd in bin/cue format, but i keep getting "index beyond end of track" errors .. after looking at the cue, i see that there are indexes beyond (time wise) the end of the video stream
[04:02] <superkirbyartist> bruenig: Take a look at 10:00:59.
[04:02] <Topslack> crimsun: I have, I've un commented everything in the sources.list and run at apt-get update but still nothing
[04:02] <enat> any idea how i can get it to burn?
[04:02] <noelferreira> how can i find wath file is corrupted from a list of zip files with this error: file #1:  bad zipfile offset (local header sig):  4
[04:02] <crimsun> superkirbyartist: please use /ignore, don't push your luck
[04:02] <superkirbyartist> Bruenig we may live in different timestamps.
[04:02] <main> could someone help me out with an error i get when i try and run adept after i install it
[04:02] <linux1> crimsun: its pasted
[04:02] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, also if you wish to pose evidence, it had better be before your 15 flooding posts in a row
[04:02] <crimsun> linux1: url?
[04:03] <aleka> has anyone in here used Kxdocker?
[04:03] <johnw188> how do I get the volume up/down keys on my imac to change the side channel instead of the PCM channel?
[04:03] <linux1> crimsun: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/514/
[04:03] <devkinetic> how do i chnage my atp-get mirror?
[04:03] <superkirbyartist> Why are you guys pointlessly debating instead of helping me out?
[04:03] <johnw188> devkinetic: it's in your /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:03] <carutsu> Falastius just gem?
[04:04] <enat> because they feel no obligation? who knows :)
[04:04] <Steven_M_> hi all
[04:04] <genben> devkinetic: /etc/apt/sources.list => add a Country Code in front of every archive.
[04:04] <johnw188> hi steve!
[04:04] <bruenig> devkinetic, go into your /etc/apt/sources.list and chance the two letter country code before "archive.ubuntu.com"
[04:04] <bruenig> change*
[04:04] <crimsun> linux1: try increasing your VIA DXS elements.
[04:04] <genben> devkinetic: ie, .au for Australia, .fr for France, then run apt-get update
[04:04] <linux1> crimsun: edit a specific alsa file?
[04:05] <superkirbyartist> And what's so complicated about "No wallpaper, no icons"?
[04:05] <genben> bruenig: he is currently using us archive, so needs to *add* a CC
[04:05] <bruenig> aleka, I haven't used kxdocker
[04:05] <crimsun> linux1: amixer set 'VIA DXS',0 90% && amixer set 'VIA DXS',1 90% && amixer set 'VIA DXS',2 90% && amixer set 'VIA DXS',3 90%
[04:06] <nolimitsoya> sorry for asking, but the manpages confuses me; how do i print todays date (CCYYMMDD) and time (HHmm) without spaces, padded with -'s, using 'date'?
[04:06] <devkinetic> thanks everyone, id be lost if it were not for all the help ive gotten here. goodnight everyone
[04:06] <genben> night
[04:06] <linux1> crimsun: ok let me start up sound recorder again
[04:06] <enat> anybody in here familiar with burning svcd's ?
[04:07] <nolimitsoya> enat, k3b can help you :)
[04:07] <mcquaid> w3ccv, ok i think i made a little progress, i can dig the domains i set up. but they don't respond to ping.
[04:07] <enat> it can't, as it spits out errors :(
[04:07] <nolimitsoya> enat, devede might too...
[04:07] <andrew_> anyone: how do i specify what sound device my volume buttons control?
[04:07] <linux1> crimsun: yes that seems to have improved it, thank you
[04:07] <enat> i've got a bin/cue, but when i try to burn it, i get "index beyond end of track" errors
[04:07] <w3ccv> mcquaid, see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/515/
[04:07] <crimsun> linux1: great.
[04:07] <enat> i'm not sure what i've done wrong
[04:07] <enat> lol
[04:07] <w3ccv> mcquaid, no ping response - sounds like a firewall problem
[04:08] <murader> hey all
[04:08] <Falstius> enat: are you burning the bin/cue as an image or just copying them to the CD .. and they aren't for a DVD are they? ;)
[04:09] <w3ccv> mcquaid, that is either a firewall or a routing problem.  do you have routing setup for them - netstat -rn should tell you
[04:09] <murader> does Ubuntu work with the jmicron-Chipset
[04:09] <linux1> crimsun: thanks for your help once again, im out
[04:09] <crimsun> np
[04:09] <andrew_> anyone: how do i specify what the volume controls on my keyboard control?
[04:09] <mcquaid> w3ccv, actually  they are on the same machine
[04:09] <enat> i'm using cdrecord (and various frontends) to try and burn the bin to cd with the cue
[04:09] <mcquaid> w3ccv, so it can't be a firewall/router issue
[04:09] <w3ccv> mcquaid, also is resolv.conf working -
[04:10] <carutsu> i found about Ktoon... its not part of KDE?
[04:10] <devkinetic> hey guys i have firefox <IP_ADDRESS> how do i update it to 2.0?
[04:10] <bimberi> nolimitsoya: 'date +%Y%m%d%H%M'  however the "padding with -'s", not sure
[04:10] <nolimitsoya> bimberi, thank you :) ill try working from that :)
[04:10] <w3ccv> mcquaid, I really mean does resolv.conf exist and point to the correct nameseerver - remember no space after the name server's address
[04:10] <mcquaid> w3ccv, yes resolve.conf works fine.  if I dig the 4 domains I setup they work, and any others get routed through my isps dns
[04:11] <bimberi> nolimitsoya: kk :)
[04:11] <Steven_M_> are there any wvdial users here?
[04:12] <andrew_> anyone: how do i specify what the volume controls on my keyboard control?
[04:12] <w3ccv> mcquaid, Try it with nslookup - not dig - they work differently. Dig will work where nslookup willnot.
[04:12] <devkinetic> hey guys i have firefox <IP_ADDRESS> how do i update it to 2.0?
[04:12] <w3ccv> mcquaid, it's been about 5 years since I had to debug a nameserver problem - it's coming back slow.
[04:13] <mcquaid> ok, i get: Server:         <IP_ADDRESS> (which is this box's ip)
[04:13] <mcquaid> Address:        <IP_ADDRESS>#53
[04:13] <genben> devkinetic: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade firefox
[04:13] <bruenig> devkinetic, you have to do it manually unless you want to upgrade to edgy 6.10
[04:13] <mcquaid> ** server can't find zingotel.com: SERVFAIL
[04:13] <bruenig> devkinetic, that command won't work
[04:14] <devkinetic> bruenig that won't? so how do i go about it
[04:14] <genben> bruenig: whoops, i am on edgy eft, sorry
[04:14] <andrew_> anyone: how do i specify what the volume controls on my keyboard control?
[04:14] <w3ccv> mcquaid, what does resolv.conf have for the "nameserver" line
[04:14] <mcquaid> search zingotel.com
[04:14] <mcquaid> nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:14] <w3ccv> mcquaid, s/line/lines/
[04:15] <Jbirk> How do I install the mozilla-mlayer plugin
[04:15] <Jbirk> on Edgy
[04:15] <Jbirk> It seems Totem is default
[04:15] <mcquaid> after that i have my isp's dns.  when I comment out my isp's dns the domain i set up won't ping
[04:15] <bruenig> devkinetic, you have to go to getfirefox.com get their version, extract it and then run the firefox script inside of the extracted directory
[04:15] <bimberi> andrew_: try right-click -> Preferences on the Volume applet
[04:15] <nolimitsoya> bimberi, just adding a '-' between the %foo's did the trick. :) what confused me was the manpages use of '+FORMAT' in place of something like '+foo' for passing the %foo's. >_< i guess im too tired to think straight...
[04:15] <Azhi_Dahaka> hi
[04:16] <nolimitsoya> !hi | Azhi_Dahaka
[04:16] <bruenig> Jbirk, sudo apt-get remove totem-mozilla && sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer
[04:16] <ubotu> Azhi_Dahaka: Hi!   Sometimes you just need to see an example :)
[04:16] <Akuma_> i need to find a driver for a dial-up modem (a  winmodem i think). how should i go about doing that? linmodems.org isn't all that helpfull when you don't already know how to go about doing it
[04:16] <devkinetic> can i upgrade to 6.10 from 6.06 to 6.10 without alot of trouble?
[04:16] <mcquaid> ok
[04:16] <Azhi_Dahaka> i'm trying the ubuntu 6.06 livecd but the wireless doesn't  work
[04:16] <andrew_> bimberi: i can do that, and change what the volume applet controls, but that has no effect on keyboard buttons
[04:16] <bimberi> andrew_: kk, guessed wrong then :|
[04:17] <andrew_> anyone: how do you install the Jack library in WINE?
[04:17] <andrew_> bimberi: thanks anyways
[04:17] <enat> [sarcasm]  thanks for attempting to help guys! [/sarcasm]
[04:17] <blameless> Azhi_Dahaka: what card do you have?
[04:17] <andrew_> Azhi: why don't you try 6.10?
[04:17] <mcquaid> ok i restarted it again, same thing, it'll dig but not ping
[04:17] <superkirbyartist> STUPID BRUENIG SENT ME A VIRUS!      WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?
[04:18] <nolimitsoya> superkirbyartist, i highly doubt that, unless you are referring to automatix :P
[04:18] <xtknight> lol
[04:18] <w3ccv> mcquaid, dig just looks at the nameserver, ping trys a connection - try pinging the IPaddress -
[04:19] <bimberi> that'll only remove files with dots in them
[04:19] <nolimitsoya> superkirbyartist, ah, well in that case... use your head next time :P
[04:19] <bruenig> well first off SUDO RM wouldn't work
[04:19] <bruenig> seeing as those commands both don't exist
[04:19] <Falstius> bruenig: "#! /bin/sh \n echo "Enter your password to see nekid women" \n sudo rm -rf /"
[04:19] <xtknight> well you got a secure OS, you got a secure browser, the only thing missing is a brain
[04:19] <xtknight> :D
[04:19] <adam> 6.06 i was able to enter safe graphics mode and install, it doesnt work with 6.10, and my xorg.conf doesnt work with 6.10 either so i cant get x to work.. any ideas?
[04:19] <genben> devkinetic: or try http://www.debianadmin.com/upgrade-ubuntu-dapper-to-ubuntu-edgy-eft.html
[04:19] <superkirbyartist> THIS IS BULL$4!T !
[04:19] <nolimitsoya> Falstius, +1 for genious!
[04:19] <bruenig> the ops really should take care of this nut
[04:19] <w3ccv> mcquaid, By not pinging you mean it times out? or other errors
[04:19] <mcquaid> w3ccv, yes i can ping this box by ip address
[04:19] <pagefault> it's easy
[04:20] <pagefault> open your sources.list
[04:20] <superkirbyartist> BRUENIG IS AN IDIOT!
[04:20] <pagefault> change dapper to edgy
[04:20] <pagefault> save
[04:20] <crimsun> superkirbyartist: dude, last warning.
[04:20] <pagefault> apt-get update/dist-upgrade
[04:20] <mcquaid> w3ccv, no i get an 'unknown host' error
[04:20] <nolimitsoya> Falstius, that puts darwins theory of evolution in practice :)
[04:20] <superkirbyartist> WHAT DID I DO WRONG?   We can read lowercase too.
[04:20] <andrew_> anyone: how do you install Libjack.so?????????
[04:20] <crimsun> andrew_: needed to compile something?
[04:20] <devkinetic> genben: thanks for that link
[04:21] <crimsun> andrew_: install libjack0.100.0-dev
[04:21] <mersco> What configures the icons of the partitions displayed on the gnome desktop?
[04:21] <superkirbyartist> !Why do the people in Ubuntu fraud you by making you DELETE ALL YOUR HARD DRIVE!
[04:21] <crimsun> argh.
[04:21] <devkinetic> we don't
[04:21] <superkirbyartist> devkinetic: I guess Bruenig did.   Move along.
[04:22] <andrew_> crimsun: no i just want to use WINE
[04:22] <blameless> andrew_: why do you need jack to use wine?
[04:23] <andrew_> blameless: well its telling me i need libjack.so when i run it, I think i may need it to run a program and get sound
[04:23] <xtknight> is there a flac plugin for winamp in the repos?
[04:23] <cyphase> Does anyone have a WiFi card that supports 802.11g out of the box on Ubuntu?
[04:23] <xtknight> not winamp...xmms
[04:23] <Cuddles_in_KY> evening all.
[04:23] <w3ccv> mcquaid, thinking...  the nameserver answers dig with the correct info, it answers nslookup with correct info, but doesn't return correct info to applicatons?  Have you tried someting like telnet ?
[04:23] <blameless> andrew_: mine also complains about jack, but it'll use OSS or ALSA without a problem
[04:23] <andrew_> cyphase: I have 2 :-)
[04:23] <nolimitsoya> xtknight, doesnt 'flac' work?
[04:23] <blameless> cyphase: yes
[04:23] <Falstius> andrew_: did you try running winecfg and setting it to use oss and alsa?
[04:23] <Cuddles_in_KY> esoteric question... does anyone know how to get a parallel port zip drive working?
[04:23] <w3ccv> cyphase, yes, my Linksys card works.
[04:23] <Steven_M_> when I try to connect to the net using wvdial I get an error saying that pppd died while trying to athenticate our selves to peer. Even though the user name and password is correct. Does anyone know how to fix it?
[04:24] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY: put your coffee cup on top of it?
[04:24] <andrew_> Falstius: yes I tried that, is there anything else i need to do? do I need to restart X?
[04:24] <Samus_Aran> does anyone know if there is somewhere that I can get a more recent version of Ghostscript ?  I need at least 8.5x for my printer and Ubuntu has the 8.1x version, and don't want to install it via source as I want it available to all my apps
[04:24] <mersco> I've mounted a partition via system->administration->disks, but the icon doesn't show up on my desktop ... how do I make it show up on the desktop?
[04:24] <xtknight> nolimitsoya: never mind, found it at xmms-flac
[04:24] <Gromit103> Hey, how do you kill a process in ubuntu?
[04:24] <mcquaid> w3ccv, well actually nslookup gives me a SERVFAIL error
[04:24] <Cuddles_in_KY> falstius, while i enjoy a good laugh as much as anyone else, i'm kind of desperate right now. i -need- the data from those disks
[04:24] <Falstius> andrew_: I would think that's all it takes.  I certainly didn't restart xwindows.
[04:25] <mcquaid> w3ccv, I'll paste my relevant files to pastebin, maybe something jumps out at you if you don't mind looking
[04:25] <ryanakca> why can't my dapper live cd (from shipit) resize the ntfs partition so that I can install k/ubuntu?
[04:26] <xtknight> Gromit103: you need the pid of the process and then you can kill it from the terminal.  complete freezes are rare and usually you can terminate an app by pressing X like 5 times...itll prompt you with a force quit
[04:26] <xtknight> Gromit103: kill <pid>
[04:26] <andrew_> Falstius: So I should check the OSS and ALSA box?
[04:26] <xtknight> Gromit103: killall <processname>
[04:26] <Falstius> andrew_:that's what I did
[04:26] <w3ccv> mcquaid, something in the files isn't quite right. bind is VERY pick about the syntax - comma/period and semi-colon/color errors are common. I once had a Network Ops Center working about 3 hours thll they found a bad semicolon.
[04:26] <daning> hello
[04:26] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY: google gave me this: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/text/ZIP-Drive
[04:26] <Gromit103> xtknight:  Thx, what if I'm in a full screen app?
[04:26] <andrew_> Falstius: Do i have to config anything in the OS sound settings?
[04:26] <xtknight> Gromit103: switch out to the virtual consoles and use the kill command
[04:26] <w3ccv> mcquaid, yes paste it, won't qurantee anyting though
[04:26] <Falstius> andrew_: do you have also installed?
[04:27] <daning> dapper or edgy?
[04:27] <Falstius> er alsa
[04:27] <Cuddles_in_KY> falstius, yes, i've tried that. that's why i'm here.
[04:27] <mcquaid> heh, ya i already noticed an omitted ; but didn't solve it
[04:27] <Gromit103> xtknight ok, thanks
[04:27] <andrew_> Falstius: Ummm, im not sure what you mean
[04:27] <mcquaid> ok thx, one sec and i'll paste it
[04:27] <xtknight> Gromit103: Ctrl+Alt+F1~F6 are virtual terminals.  F7~F12 are your desktop 'consoles'...(usually just f7)
[04:27] <Falstius> andrew_: try "sudo apt-get install alsa-oss"
[04:28] <Falstius> andrew_: that's also usefull, along with a few other tweaks, to getting decent flash sound in firefox.
[04:28] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY: it didn't work?
[04:28] <andrew_> Falstius: K just did, should I restart  anything?
[04:29] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY:  those tldp howtos are always incredibly out of date.
[04:29] <Cuddles_in_KY> falstius, if it had worked i wouldn't be here.
[04:29] <Falstius> andrew_: should 'just work'

[04:31] <ekaeka> xtknight: I use sudo apt-get install w32codecs and it returns:

[04:31] <ryanakca> how do I make my dapper live cd (from shipit) resize the ntfs partition so that I can install k/ubuntu?
[04:31] <Harkonnen20> Im trying to run the live cd of 6.1 and when I boot with the disc and hit start, it goes through some loading stuff then gives me an x server error.

[04:32] <ekaeka> Ive gone to the ftp link where the package was located on a dev blog, but it looks to be down..so
[04:32] <xtknight> ekaeka: type '   uname -m   '
[04:32] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY: it exists on my system
[04:33] <Harkonnen20> It is a Radeon 9200se
[04:33] <ekaeka> xtknight: it returns i686
[04:33] <Cuddles_in_KY> falstius, good for you. it doesn't on mine.
[04:33] <andrew_> didnt work, I mean this is a simple program, its PokerStars, ha
[04:33] <xtknight> ryanakca: you may have to download a gparted livecd to do that reliably
[04:33] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY: I'm just pointing out that it should be there and should work.   Hm, I have them on this Dapper install.  So 'sudo modprobe imm' (or ppa) doesn't work?
[04:34] <kitche> andrew_: that works in wine but when you go to a table you lose the lobby for good*
[04:34] <andrew_> kitche: awesome, but how do i get sound!!!?
[04:34] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, both came up with ''no such module''
[04:34] <toM|vendettA> can someone help me? i would like a home folder icon on my desktop, but dont know how to get one o.O
[04:34] <ekaeka> xtknight: yes, I believe the location of the package is unavailable, see here: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/12/04/libdvdcss2-and-w32codecs-for-ubuntu/
[04:34] <kyhx> im wonder about wine right now.... were do you put the windows binary to use wine
[04:35] <xtknight> ekaeka: ahh ok.
[04:35] <toM|vendettA> Nevermind, an idiot I am.
[04:35] <andrew_> everyone : there needs to be a ubuntu skypecast, 24/7
[04:35] <ekaeka> xtknight: would you know of an alternative way to retrieve the package besides that ftp?
[04:35] <xtknight> a what?
[04:35] <andrew_> xtknight: google it
[04:35] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: what's the output of 'uname -r' ?
[04:36] <andrew_> kitche: awesome, but how do i get sound!!!?
[04:36] <Harkonnen20> blameless it is a ATi Radeon 9200se video card.
[04:36] <ekaeka> perhaps try and use an rpm..?
[04:36] <blameless> hmm, i'm not sure why that would have a problem
[04:36] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, 2.6.17-10-generic
[04:36] <jasin> hi
[04:37] <kitche> andrew_: there is a work around with the lobby bug on wine's page hmm to get sound not sure exactly well you will have to do winecfg most likely to get it you had sound outside of wine?
[04:37] <xtknight> ekaeka: well packages.ubuntu.com doesnt have it at all
[04:37] <jasin> 2.6.17-10-generic is 3 versions behind the latest
[04:37] <andrew_> ktche: yeah i get sound out of wine
[04:37] <xtknight> ekaeka: and neither does debian
[04:38] <xtknight> ekaeka: http://www.debian-multimedia.org/pool/main/w/w32codecs/
[04:38] <Harkonnen20> neither do i
[04:38] <kyhx> !wine
[04:38] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:38] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: that is strange.  packages.ubuntu.com tells me you should have /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/kernel/drivers/scsi/ppa.ko (and imm.ko) :/
[04:38] <ekaeka> xtknight: ah, wonderful :)
[04:38] <capiira> hmmmm hi how well does a ubuntu upgrade work?
[04:38] <Shocka311> can anyone tell me if there is an easier way to setup my pc to dual boot Win if on a seprate HD than to erase Linux off my master, install Win onto my master then Reinstall linux on my slave?
[04:38] <kitche> andrew_: according to the wine appdb sound works
[04:39] <andrew_> ktche: I mean, sound works outside of WINE, but I kind of want to disable my onboard sound, because I have a soundblaster, can I do that?
[04:39] <capiira> i mean from an older version to newer
[04:39] <andrew_> kitche: I think that may be the problem
[04:39] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, suggestions on fixing this?
[04:39] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY: It is included in linux-image-2.6.17-10-386
[04:39] <d1gita1> i am writing a shell script and i need to change volume in mplayer. i have a FIFO set up and working  (echo "pause" > mplayer_pipe  works fine)  but i cannot seem to set the volume with 'echo "volume 50" > mplayer_pipe'  .  Any ideas?
[04:39] <xtknight> andrew_: set it as the default alsa device
[04:39] <capiira> like 5.x to 6.x to 7.x
[04:39] <nolimitsoya> andrew_ yes you can disable your old soundcard, in you bios settings
[04:39] <xtknight> andrew_: asoundconf set-default-card <CardName>
[04:39] <xtknight> andrew_: asoundconf list    to get a list of CardNames
[04:40] <andrew_> thx
[04:40] <w3ccv> mcquaid, still there?   you MUST modify the first line where it says do not modify the following.  The first number is the serial number - and should be incremented with each modification
[04:40] <Harkonnen20> blameless i also have onboard video, but it is disabled
[04:40] <Cuddles_in_KY> falstius, i'm sorry, but i know what my system is telling me. and based on your primary advice to me, i'm a bit wary of what else you offer.
[04:40] <Azhi_Dahaka> i'm trying the ubuntu 6.06 livecd but the wireless doesn't work
[04:40] <mcquaid> ok let me look
[04:40] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: difficult as it seems that you don't have a full install.  Are those files present?
[04:40] <minerale> Greetings I just installed vncserver and it works, I stareted up vncserver but gnome does not load I get an error: Gnome-session: you're already running a session manager
[04:41] <Shocka311> anyony have an answer, please tell me if there is an easier way cause I'm about to erase my hard drive
[04:41] <w3ccv> mcquaid, and the domain nist.gov.db is not the .db domain - but probably not part of the current problem
[04:41] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, not that i can find.
[04:41] <Cuddles_in_KY> physically not there.
[04:41] <andrew_> anyone : my OSS doesnt work, could that be the problem when using WINE?
[04:41] <klees> is anyone using an ATI 9800 Pro with the latest 8.32.5 drivers???
[04:42] <xtknight> !anyone | klees
[04:42] <ubotu> klees: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:42] <jasin> dont use OSS use Alsa
[04:42] <jasin> !alsa
[04:42] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin
[04:43] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: sanity check here (mine): this is i386 ?
[04:43] <mcquaid> w3ccv, so the number<PHONE_NUMBER> has to be incremented by 1 in each of the seperate db zone files?
[04:43] <Azhi_Dahaka> hmm
[04:43] <Azhi_Dahaka> guys
[04:43] <andrew_> ubotu: im not having problems with sound, but im having problems with sound and WINE
[04:43] <Azhi_Dahaka> i'm trying the ubuntu 6.06 livecd but the wireless doesn't work
[04:43] <ubotu> im: mail/news handling commands and Perl modules. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:148-5 (edgy), package size 310 kB, installed size 1260 kB
[04:43] <coz_> hey all ... by chance... is there a command to list recent updates?
[04:43] <klees> i have a problem with GL Screensavers after the latest set of updates...  anyone experiencing problems as well?
[04:43] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, yes.
[04:43] <klees> GL screensavers are no longer accelerated
[04:43] <kyhx> Were is the c drive located at that wine creates?
[04:43] <xtknight> klees: is anything else accelerated/

[04:44] <klees> even though fglrxinfo shows fglrx enabled
[04:44] <marcel__> hi
[04:44] <Falstius> kyhx: by default, .wine/drive_c
[04:44] <kitche> kyhx: ~/.wine/drive_c
[04:44] <xtknight> klees: does glxinfo show direct rendering yes (assuming you're not using xgl)?
[04:44] <klees> xtknight: fglrxinfo and glxinfo show i have the drivers loaded
[04:44] <klees> xtknight: not using xgl
[04:44] <Azhi_Dahaka> but doesn't it beats the ideal of the livecd?
[04:44] <jasin> wine sucks
[04:44] <xtknight> klees: is glxinfo fast?
[04:44] <xtknight> klees: err, glxgears
[04:44] <kyhx> Falstius,  kitche  thanks you
[04:44] <w3ccv> mcquaid, yes, will typically you would make it<PHONE_NUMBER> for the first today, the second mod would be<PHONE_NUMBER>, ... reflecting the dat and which rev it is.  just so the nuber is higher
[04:45] <klees> xtknight: the gl screensavers are no longer accelerated after the latest updates.  everything was fine prior
[04:45] <w3ccv> mcquaid, s/dat/date/
[04:45] <klees> xtknight: yes
[04:45] <jasin> run windows not wine
[04:45] <marcel__> hi guys I have a Gateway mx 3215 and ubuntu but NO SOUND
[04:45] <HorD> so?
[04:45] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: does 'dpkg -L linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic | grep ppa.lo' output anything?
[04:45] <xtknight> klees: hmm i'm not sure why that would be
[04:45] <d1gita1> i am writing a shell script and i need to change volume in mplayer. i have a FIFO set up and working  (echo "pause" > mplayer_pipe  works fine)  but i cannot seem to set the volume with 'echo "volume 50" > mplayer_pipe'  .  Any ideas?
[04:45] <coz_> marcel__, do you know th manufacturer of the onborad sound card?
[04:45] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: oops, ppa.ko
[04:45] <w3ccv> mcquaid, I think lines 98 and 110 should end in '.'s
[04:45] <marcel__> I think it is VIA
[04:45] <jasin> !alsa | marcel__
[04:45] <klees> xtknight: im not sure what broke what in the latest set of updates
[04:45] <ubotu> marcel__: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin
[04:46] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, nothing, on either version of that command.
[04:46] <marcel__> When I play music or watch a video I can see the time moving, but NO sound
[04:46] <coz_> marcel__,  well check under system preferences sound I believe let me look
[04:46] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: how about without the "| grep..."
[04:46] <xtknight> klees: run a screensaver manually from /usr/lib/xscreensaver/gl*...    same thing?
[04:46] <jasin> !alsa | marcel__

[04:46] <mcquaid> w3ccv, yes I notcied the missing . as well wasn't sure
[04:46] <mcquaid> i'll try that
[04:46] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: (should be lots of lines)
[04:46] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, nothing.
[04:47] <w3ccv> mcquaid, bind is funny - iirc it stores some cached files that even restarting does't cure  so that serial numbr is important.
[04:47] <marcel__> my sound volume is muted constantly
[04:47] <coz_> marcel__, yeah go under system/preferences/sound
[04:47] <jasin> bind is a huge security risk
[04:47] <klees> xtknight: running it manually looks fine
[04:47] <coz_> marcel__, under the devices tab and the sound playuback pull down see if the via is listed
[04:47] <klees> hmm
[04:47] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: how about 'dpkg -L linux-image-$(uname -r)' ?
[04:47] <xtknight> klees: odd.  sure nothing else like updatedb is running while ur idleness/screensaver gets triggered?
[04:48] <marcel__> just a sec.
[04:48] <klees> xtknight: positive
[04:48] <coz_> marcel__, no that may not be the place
[04:48] <jasin> BIND 4 and BIND 8 have had a large number of serious security vulnerabilities over the years.
[04:48] <andrew_> anyone: how specify what device the volume controls on a keyboard effect?
[04:48] <klees> i have gkrellm monitoring with Top
[04:48] <coz_> marcel open a terminal and type alsamixer
[04:48] <marcel__> No it is just blank no soundcard
[04:48] <xtknight> klees: what happens if you just preview a screensaver?  does it work then also?
[04:48] <ryjax> exit
[04:48] <xtknight> klees: (in the gnome screensaver preferences dialog)
[04:48] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, tons of stuff. still scrolling
[04:48] <coz_> marcel__, well then lsamixer in the terminal will come back wihtout sound card also
[04:49] <marcel__> yes, I just tried
[04:49] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: try adding the "| grep" to that
[04:49] <crimsun> marcel__: lspci -nv   pastebinned, please.
[04:49] <coz_> marcel__, you may hve to go to the alsa site under manyfaturers and see if that particular chipset is aupported
[04:49] <klees> xtknight: preview shows the screensaver not accelrated
[04:49] <jasin> marcel, unmute it then
[04:49] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, nothing, again.
[04:49] <coz_> marcel__, liten to crimson
[04:49] <coz_> :)
[04:49] <klees> xtknight: the same screensaver i ran manually
[04:49] <xtknight> klees: ok, a screensaver service is to blame.  im not sure which one X or gnome uses,  xscreensaver maybe or something like that, i know there's osme service
[04:49] <marcel__> I cannot, if I try to move it up, id goes down
[04:49] <marcel__> who is crimson?
[04:49] <Falstius> Cuddles_in_KY: did you do anything like trying to recompile your kernel?
[04:50] <crimsun> marcel__: meaning me.
[04:50] <andrew_> anyone: how specify what device the volume controls on a keyboard effect?
[04:50] <marcel__> O.K. what do you suggest?
[04:50] <mcquaid> w3ccv, damn, still unknown host
[04:50] <crimsun> marcel__: I asked for information.
[04:50] <jasin> marcel, alsa is probally not enabled.
[04:50] <w3ccv> mcquaid, you only need to bump the serial number in the file you are working on, not all of them for each edit session. ..... just found my DNS and Bind book
[04:50] <xtknight> andrew_: always the default i think but u can use xmodmap manually and then the alsa volume command
[04:50] <klees> xtknight: i know nothing about those services
[04:50] <Cuddles_in_KY> falstius, i may be crazy, but i'm not insane.
[04:50] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: i'm really stumped.  If the package is installed fully the file(s) should be there.  Only thing I can think of is to try a 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-$(uname -r)' but let me try it here first
[04:50] <xtknight> klees: me neither, unfortunately ;)
[04:50] <marcel__> sorry, so many it's moving pretty fast here:)
[04:50] <mcquaid> ok
[04:51] <Azhi_Dahaka> read 512 bytes at 0: Input/Output error
[04:51] <klees> xtknight: do u have an ATI card?
[04:51] <xtknight> klees: naw, nvidia
[04:51] <marcel__> it seems I do not have alsamixer installed
[04:51] <mcquaid> i changed them all anyway,
[04:51] <andrew_> xtknight: its not using the default
[04:51] <andrew_> xtknight: its using my onboard, Ill try to disable it in my bios if all else fails
[04:52] <jasin> marcel,  open alsa mixer, goto file / change device
[04:52] <marcel__> when I double click on the volume control, I get this message"No volume control GStreamer plugins or device found"
[04:52] <jasin> marcel,  select 1 or 2, whichever works.
[04:52] <xtknight> hmm
[04:52] <aivijay> Anyone using gnucash
[04:52] <xtknight> andrew_: not sure, i think im having the same trouble.
[04:53] <aivijay> I have some problems with it
[04:53] <xtknight> andrew_: but it may pick up the default device prior to you setting it.  so in turn it has the OLD default device
[04:53] <Pie-rate> How would I forward FTP (not sftp) connections from my ubuntu box?
[04:53] <marcel__> jasin, what do you mean by file?
[04:53] <w3ccv> mcquaid, I think I found it - in the pastebin line 61  zigotel is it's own nameserver - by name, but itdoesn't know where that name is.  change that to the ip <IP_ADDRESS> (?)
[04:53] <jasin> marcel,  umm you is not listening.
[04:53] <andrew_> xtknight : i just wonder if you can change that somewhere
[04:53] <mcquaid> w3ccv, ok
[04:53] <xtknight> andrew_: no idea.  probably in some init script
[04:53] <trainer_> hi, I can't seem to get an internet connection. my network status looks ok, but ifconfig does not show an "inet addr", only one for ipv6. can anyone help me
[04:53] <marcel__> say it again please
[04:54] <jasin> marcel,  you obviously didn;t open alsa mixer, file is at the top, click on that
[04:54] <Azhi_Dahaka> linux busted my sd card
[04:54] <vijay> I am trying to use gnucash and I find its not properly showing up the fonts
[04:54] <andrew_> anyone: I still cant figure out why I dont get sound out of "pokersars" through WINE
[04:54] <jasin> Azhi, sounds works fine here.
[04:54] <vijay> for the currency
[04:54] <w3ccv> mcquaid, and bump up the serial number - then kill -HUP to reread the files.  maybe even open a window to 'tail -f /var/log/messages'
[04:54] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: ok, the reinstall didn't break anything but I'm rebooting (separate machine) just to make sure.  Stand by
[04:55] <marcel__> I probably do not have it installed, give me a second\
[04:55] <Neeled> Hello, Is there a way I can compare file names between two directories/devices and list ones that differ?
[04:55] <Azhi_Dahaka> read 512 bytes at 0: Input/Output error
[04:55] <Azhi_Dahaka> can't mount iy
[04:55] <Cuddles_in_KY> standing by.
[04:55] <Azhi_Dahaka> t
[04:55] <andrew_> how can i tell if OSS is working, and if it's not, how do i make it work?
[04:56] <jasin> marcel, under system / prefrences / sound .. you can enable sound there or change it to oss or alsa or whatever is listed.
[04:56] <james296> what package is it I need to re install to correct the way the Ubuntu Help Centre looks?
[04:57] <marcel__> I do not have it installed where do I find it?
[04:57] <james296> like what if things are missing from it?
[04:57] <james296> how do I fix that?
[04:57] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: rebooted fine.  Give that a try.
[04:58] <daning> /info
[04:58] <andrew_> anyone: when i try to test OSS in sound settings, it does not work, but ALSA does, but I need OSS for WINE, anybody got a clue?
[04:58] <clever> how would i access the tvout feature on my video card?
[04:58] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, thanks, i'll try that. before i leave though... know anything about bluetooth?
[04:58] <Bhaskar> How can i format Usb drive in ubuntu
[04:58] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-$(uname -r)'
[04:58] <jasin> marcel, type: alsamixer, if its installed a console version of it will come up there
[04:58] <Pie-rate> My brother is in the bay area right now, and wants to connect to our dinosaur red hat 7.1 server with FTP (probably using Dreamweaver), except as a security measure, FTP is blocked via /etc/hosts.deny and I don't have root access. I'd like to know what i could do about forwarding all FTP from this ubuntu 6.10 box to the dinosaur redhat 7.1 server
[04:58] <james296> well?
[04:58] <bimberi> Cuddles_in_KY: nope.  I'm sure you're glad to hear it ;P
[04:59] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, thanks, running it now.
[04:59] <Cuddles_in_KY> bimberi, reason i asked, i'm about to switch to a frogpad, and it's bluetooth-only.
