[12:01] <bobdobbs> could someone look at this http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/870740 it keeps happenening and has somehting to do with login hanging indeffinately
[12:01] <Jowi> arthus, before you do: write up the ipaddress, subnet mask and gateway that you get in windows
[12:02] <guilherme_jorge> hello all, I've updated ubuntu 6.06 to 6.10 and in this proccess firefox was already updated to version <IP_ADDRESS>. Now, when I try to access www.orkut.com, and anothers sites like of banks, and I get the following message in firefox:  "Unexpected response from server |  Firefox doesn't know how to communicate with the server. Check to make sure your system has the Personal Security Manager
[12:02] <guilherme_jorge>     installed.     * This might be due to a non-standard configuration on the server." Note: All of the sites uses SSL. Any idea?
[12:02] <Jowi> arthus, "ifconfig" in linux should match those settings. if they do not - run "sudo network-admin" and set it up in there.
[12:02] <arthus> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/3391/
[12:02] <mon^rch> will my beryl work in kde?
[12:02] <arthus> Jowi: now I go to ubuntu and test
[12:03] <arthus> jowi: I'll be back
[12:03] <tom_> !beryl
[12:03] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-xgl
[12:03] <Jowi> arthus, ok, looks fine. yes, boot into ubuntu and have a look
[12:03] <tom_> and yes it probably will.
[12:04] <flareze> anyone know any app to wath tv with WinTV PVR 350 card ?
[12:04] <bobdobbs> here it is, but from a diff log, the first was from syslog, this is from usr.log http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/870743
[12:05] <bobdobbs> I really need that user back, can anyone please help me?
[12:05] <cameotwat> i'm manually editing the partitions how much should i use for swap ?
[12:05] <bimberi> !tvtime
[12:05] <ubotu> tvtime: A high quality television application. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.1-2.2ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 636 kB, installed size 1768 kB
[12:05] <nikitis> I think I figured out why it says Direct Rendering: No  I did a "glxinfo | grep vendor" and got Server glx vendor string: SGI and then two NVIDIA Corporations.  What should I do to fix this?
[12:05] <cameotwat> i have 256 ram
[12:05] <bimberi> flareze: Try tvtime
[12:06] <mon^rch> double ram for a swap
[12:06] <Jowi> cameotwat, 512MB is more than enough
[12:06] <flareze> bimberi: tvtime not working
[12:06] <cameotwat> Jowi what is that swap partition used for anyway ?
[12:06] <nikitis> Anyone?
[12:06] <flareze> bimberi: it says "cant open capture device /dev/video0
[12:06] <foxmulder> hi there
[12:07] <drew1313> bye all
[12:07] <foxmulder> i'm new in ubuntu
[12:07] <cameotwat> Jowi both ext3 and swap should be primary partitions?
[12:07] <Jowi> cameotwat, swap = page file. to free up some data that is stored in ram that is not used very often.
[12:07] <juano__> nikitis: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf check to see in section Device   Driver is in "nvidia"
[12:07] <flareze> bimberi: when i try to cat /dev/video0 > /tmp/adasd.mpg.. it do record.. but its black n white screen
[12:07] <cameotwat> should i set them both to be primary?
[12:07] <Jowi> cameotwat, doesn't matter. you can have 4 primary partitions. if you need more partitions than that you need to create an extended partition with logical partitions inside of it.
[12:08] <foxmulder> who can i see a windows partition in ubuntu?
[12:08] <nikitis> juano__: Driver is nvidia
[12:08] <juano__> nikitis: ok.. seems good
[12:08] <bimberi> flareze: Sorry, I know little more than the existence of the app.  Has the kernel recognised the card?  See if you can find out what modules should be loaded and see if they are (using 'lsmod').
[12:09] <nikitis> juano__: but Cedega says direct rendering is no.  I won't be able to achieve very fast speeds will I?
[12:09] <cameotwat> Error while resizing/moving /dev/hda1
[12:09] <cameotwat> Jowi problem :P
[12:09] <nikitis> juano__: or is it lying to me
[12:10] <flareze> bimberi: sure... i can find it
[12:10] <Jowi> cameotwat, I can see that ;) it's a ntfs partition or something?
[12:10] <juano__> nikitis: mm nope, i got direct rendering Yes , whatvideo card you got ?
[12:10] <nikitis> GeForce Go 6800
[12:10] <juano__> nikitis: driver is "nvidia" and NOT "nv" right ?
[12:10] <nikitis> 3D Acceleration works fine, but direct rendering doesn't which means it's having to go through X
[12:10] <nikitis> juano__: yes it's nvidia not nv
[12:10] <cameotwat> Jowi yes..
[12:11] <Jowi> cameotwat, do you need the data that is on it?
[12:11] <juano__> nikitis: ok , type glxgears and see what speed you get those gears going
[12:11] <cameotwat> Jowi why :P
[12:11] <nikitis> it doesn't show the speed  only the gears
[12:11] <toM|vendettA> hi... i have a bunch of files named filename.txt, i want to make them filename.tom
[12:11] <nikitis> how do I make it show the fps
[12:11] <juano__> nikitis: well are they fast or very slow and stuttery?
[12:12] <cameotwat> Jowi i think i need it
[12:12] <nikitis> They are simi fast, but as fast as they could be
[12:12] <jkillaz> test
[12:12] <nikitis> not stuttery as if no nvidia driver is installed
[12:12] <toM|vendettA> is there a way i can batch convert file extensions? like say file.txt to file.ext
[12:12] <kelsin> nikitis: in the Module section of xorg.conf are you loading glx and NOT dri?
[12:12] <kelsin> nikitis: and when you log on do you see the nvidia logo before the login screen?
[12:12] <nikitis> kelsin: yes i checked already dri isn't even listed
[12:12] <Jowi> cameotwat, well, you have an option to delete all partitions, reboot and then run the installer again. or you can try to only run gparted to resize the partition and reboot, then run the installer again to create the other partitions needed. that error is a bit hard to troubleshoot. it's like doing guesswork.
[12:12] <nikitis> kelsin: yes I see the logo
[12:13] <mon^rch> question: what does dri stand for and why should it be commented out?
[12:13] <Jowi> mon^rch, Direct Rendering Infrastructure - accelerated 3D
[12:13] <kelsin> nikitis: you're not running Compiz or Beryl correct?
[12:14] <kelsin> mon^rch: when using nvidia drivers you don't want xorg's dri driver loaded
[12:14] <toM|vendettA> is there a way i can batch convert file extensions? like say file.txt to file.ext
[12:14] <IntuitiveNipple> Direct Rendering Infrastructure
[12:14] <Jowi> mon^rch, why it would be commented out is a different question. I need it enabled on my card (intel 945GM)
[12:14] <mon^rch> oh, ok... ty
[12:14] <nikitis> kelsin: i did a glxinfo | grep vendor and I did not get NVIDIA logo 3 times like i'm supposed to.  Instead I got it 2 times and SGI once.    I'm not running Beryl currently no.  I had it installed but I disabled it and restarted the Laptop.  still no direct rendering
[12:14] <cameotwat> Jowi gparted?
[12:14] <jkillaz> I have a wpa wireless network card which I want to work on my dell latitude d610.... how can I figure out whihch driver I need?
[12:14] <funkja> I have connected my tv card audio to my CD-ROM audio-in connector on my motherboard. How would I enable that?
[12:14] <kelsin> nikitis: do you have: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/3392/ in your xorg?
[12:15] <cameotwat> Jowi is that included in my fluxbuntu?
[12:15] <kelsin> nikitis: might want to try it if not
[12:15] <Jowi> cameotwat, I have no idea what partitioning tools fluxbuntu come with. in the ubuntu live/desktop cd you run gparted.
[12:15] <kelsin> nikitis: might want to try disabling the composite extension in xorg too to see if that gives you dri
[12:15] <Jowi> cameotwat, #fluxbuntu should be able to help you there
[12:15] <mjr> nikitis, 1) in xorg.conf, you're not supposed to load the dri module for nvidia 2) are you running Xgl, perhaps, even if not Beryl? It would explain lack of direct rendering.
[12:16] <nikitis> kelsin: i'm beginning to think maybe mesa and nvidia drivers are mixed.  I'll try your suggestions
[12:16] <kelsin> nikitis: have to run to a meeting, good luck
[12:16] <ledemente> Hi.
[12:16] <Mortuis> Is there a traceroute program in Ubuntu?
[12:16] <cameotwat> Jowi yes i'm there
[12:16] <nikitis> mjr: there is no dri module in xorg.conf
[12:16] <mjr> nikitis, good
[12:16] <Mortuis> I can't seem to figure out the name if there is one.
[12:16] <Zombie1> Is this a good place to ask questions about MacBooks and parallel?
[12:17] <nikitis> mjr: i was running beryl, but i rebooted without it and it still says direct rendering no
[12:17] <ledemente> I accidentally messed up my sources.list and now I can't get updates or upgrades until I resolve some issue with "wpasupplicant"
[12:17] <ledemente> I don't think I need it - I'm not using wireless.
[12:17] <Jowi> cameotwat, I need to hit the sack. getting late here. good luck.
[12:17] <funkja> How would I enable my cd rom audio in from my motherboard?
[12:17] <mjr> nikitis, that's not what I asked, but if you were using Xgl
[12:17] <cameotwat> Jowi thanks
[12:18] <nikitis> mjr: i have an Option in xorg.conf that says AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
[12:18] <pbureau> ledemente- remove the module
[12:18] <FatherTyme> Is there something like /etc/debian_version for Ubuntu?
[12:18] <ledemente> pbureau: how?
[12:18] <juano__> nikitis: you might want to try what kelsin sais
[12:18] <pbureau> ledemente- use gnome ?
[12:19] <toM|vendettA> is there a way i can batch convert file extensions? like say file.txt to file.ext
[12:19] <juano__> nikitis: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/3392/ in your xorg
[12:19] <ledemente> Yes, although I also use some KDE apps.
[12:19] <mjr> rename s/txt$/ext/ * or something
[12:19] <jrib> toM|vendettA: rename
[12:19] <pbureau> toM|vendettA-  sudo rename *.txt *.ext ??
[12:20] <toM|vendettA> thanks pbureau and jrib
[12:20] <jkillaz> please can someone show me where to start looking for enabling wpa on my Pro/Wireless 2200
[12:20] <ledemente> wpasupplicant
[12:20] <jrib> toM|vendettA: use rename with -n first.  It just says what it will do that way.  It prevents big mistakes :)
[12:20] <nikitis> mjr: would AllowGLXWithComposite prevent direct rendering?
[12:20] <ledemente> I'm trying to get rid of it.

[12:38] <cablesm102> mena, I'm sorry... Java 1.5 = Java 5.
[12:38] <cablesm102> mena, so you want to switch your default java to the sun one?
[12:38] <DavoFrom818> hi
[12:38] <mena> yes
[12:38] <DavoFrom818> whats the command to configure the network
[12:38] <tigerflyer> i just purchased a macbook and will be triple booting (windows/osx/ubuntu)... i also have a 320 gig external hardrive... what is the best filesystem to use on it so that i can use it with the 3 OS's
[12:38] <chorse> jrib: that's not exactly what i need, all the openoffice stuff that comes with it is not reasonable for a server system
[12:38] <mena> cablesm102, in the terminal i choose java 1.5
[12:39] <juano__> nikitis:  sure just put a # at the begining of that line like the other 3 bellow
[12:39] <mena> cablesm102, but after that opera closing auto after opning it
[12:39] <janga> nautilus question: ist there a way to automatically display folder.jpgs as folder icons?
[12:39] <juano__> nikitis: line 140 to be exact
[12:39] <cablesm102> mena, use this: "sudo update-alternatives --config java" and choose the one with sun in it.
[12:39] <mena> cablesm102, okay i did that
[12:39] <DavoFrom818> is it network configure?
[12:39] <nikitis> juano__: still no
[12:39] <mena> cablesm102, but opera in the option use 1.4
[12:39] <juano__> nikitis: you need to restart X for changes to take effect
[12:40] <nikitis> juano__: i did ctrl+alt+backspace
[12:40] <juano__> nikitis: ahh ok
[12:40] <jrib> chorse: I once needed support for si_LK, I think all I did was  sudo locale-gen si_LK.UTF-8   .  You tried this?  You may also have better luck in the language channel for your language since most of the people there would have gone through this :)
[12:40] <juano__> nikitis: mm and then a glxinfo | grep render
[12:40] <juano__> nikitis: whats it say with that command ?
[12:40] <nikitis> juano__: yes that's where i'm getting the direct rendering: No from
[12:41] <juano__> nikitis: ok hold on let me see
[12:41] <cablesm102> alright, mena, i think i know how to do this
[12:41] <mena> cablesm102, ok
[12:41] <DavoFrom818> anyone please?
[12:41] <cablesm102> mena, open Preferences and go to the Content section. Click Java Options
[12:41] <mena> okay i did
[12:41] <AmbientMstr> Hey, I installed last-exit player last night, but I can't hear any sound from it. Suggestions?
[12:41] <tigerflyer> i just purchased a macbook and will be triple booting (windows/osx/ubuntu)... i also have a 320 gig external hardrive... what is the best filesystem to use on the external so that i can use it with the 3 OS's
[12:41] <chorse> jrib: ah...thanks, so simple! and i wondered all the time where my locale.gen has gone
[12:42] <pbureau> ledemente- did you locate an .old file ? for the sources.list
[12:42] <AmbientMstr> tigerflyer: I believe fat32

[12:42] <cablesm102> mena, hold on a sec...
[12:42] <mena> ok take your time
[12:42] <cameotwat> i'm in the middle of installing ubuntu, and gparted told me a warning that /dev/hdc is read only file system and that it is unable to open /dev/hdc - unrecognised disk label, it's a livd CD

[12:42] <janga> DavoFrom818, ifconfig in terminal
[12:42] <nikitis> juano__: when i did glxinfo | grep vendor I got "SGI" "NVIDIA" "NVIDIA".  I was told I was supposed to have 3 NVIDIA's show up
[12:42] <AmbientMstr> Hey, I installed last-exit player last night, but I can't hear any sound from it. Suggestions?
[12:42] <tigerflyer> i was thinking fat32... but then i read that ubuntu supports hfs+
[12:42] <nikitis> juano__: i believe that could be my problem
[12:42] <pbureau> cameotwat- hdc is your cdrom, you need to look for hda
[12:42] <DavoFrom818> isnt there like a network-configure?
[12:42] <AngryElf> !ubotu java
[12:42] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository
[12:43] <AmbientMstr> ?
[12:43] <AngryElf> bah -- is there a package I can install to enable java support in firefox?
[12:43] <cameotwat> pbureau well it gives me an error that it can't make a partition i don't know why
[12:43] <juano__> nikitis: mm yes, actually i get 3 nvidia , one for server xgl, client xgl and opengl
[12:43] <jrib> AngryElf: read the page ubotu sent you too... (sun-java5-plugin)
[12:43] <janga> DavoFrom818, System->Administration->Network
[12:43] <jkillaz_> lendemente: can someone guide me throuh the installation of the wireless card?
[12:43] <nikitis> juano__:  right how would one go about fixing this?
[12:43] <pbureau> AngryElf- synaptic java5 ? or firefox tools addon java ?
[12:44] <DavoFrom818> im on ubuntu 6..10 server
[12:44] <cablesm102> mena, change the path to /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java
[12:44] <nikitis> juano__:  from what i've googled i've been told mesa drivers are mixed with nvidia
[12:44] <jkillaz_> iwconfi shows me my card on eth1..
[12:44] <pbureau> jkillaz_-  I can possibly help
[12:44] <janga> DavoFrom818, oh, ok
[12:44] <jkillaz_> pbureau: thnx....
[12:44] <juano__> nikitis: mm im searching, did you follow !nvidia ?
[12:44] <mena> cablem102, ok
[12:44] <cablesm102> mena, actually leave out the java at the end
[12:44] <RamiKassab> hey guys, is anyone here pretty avid in setting up a CVS repository?
[12:44] <cablesm102> so just /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/
[12:44] <mena> ok
[12:44] <nikitis> !nvidia
[12:44] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:44] <RamiKassab> I have a few questions
[12:44] <ala> hello... where can i find a list of the latest upgrades for ubuntu?
[12:45] <cameotwat> pbureau it says error while trying to move\resize hda1
[12:45] <pbureau> cameotwat- dunno.. sorry not a gparted expert
[12:45] <cameotwat> and the console keep saying 'error reading inode XXXXX' XXXXX - all kinds of numbers
[12:45] <oddmanout> hi all, I'm installing ubuntu on a laptop and it's really slow to load the installation screeen after I boot the livecd. Is there a nongraphical or non live-cd way to install?
[12:45] <cameotwat> oh
[12:45] <RamiKassab> first off, if I have a shared server development server where multiple projects are hosted on this server, do I only need one CVS repository? In this case, do I just create modules (projects) for each project hosted on the server?
[12:46] <cablesm102> mena, my bad... try this: /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/lib/i386
[12:46] <janga> DavoFrom818, there is no tool like yast in ubuntu, but you can install webmin and configure via HTML-interface
[12:46] <nikitis> juano__:  i would like to uninstall my drivers and start anew.  reformatting my system isn't an option
[12:46] <RamiKassab> furthermore, how do I password protect the modules (projects) so that only certain developers can access certain modules?
[12:46] <riotkittie> oddmanout: yes, there is - an alternate/text mode install. you can find it at ubuntu.com
[12:46] <mena> cablem102, ok
[12:46] <cablesm102> oddmanout, it takes a while for the LiveCD to boot. That's normal.
[12:46] <juano__> nikitis: sure, no need for format
[12:47] <ala> i have a server installation of edgy on one of my machines.  today i updated the udev package....where can i find out if i need to reboot the machine?
[12:47] <oddmanout> cablesm102: how long should I wait after double clicking the install icon? the cd stops spinning altogether
[12:48] <tecywiz121> Hello, I need some help.  I bought a belkin nic, and it will not work.  Any Ideas?
[12:48] <cablesm102> oddmanout, that seems abnormal. I thought you meant the time from when you stick the CD in and power it up to when it boots up entirely.
[12:48] <cablesm102> oddmanout, how much memory do you have?
[12:48] <riotkittie> oddmanout: when booting from the 6.10 disc, i waited about 40 mins total from boot to making it to the desktop and clicking install.
[12:48] <kitche> ala: well you do if you want to use the new udev but it's ok if you don't
[12:48] <mena> cablem102, that would make it work write
[12:48] <belkin> tecywiz121 sup ?
[12:48] <belkin> :)
[12:48] <riotkittie> needless to say, i did not install 6.10 :D
[12:49] <oddmanout> cablesml102, riotkittie: hurm. maybe I should work off of a 6.06 disk?
[12:49] <tecywiz121> belkin, lol, nothing much, the card just doesn't work :P
[12:49] <janga> !webmin
[12:49] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[12:49] <riotkittie> oh wait. i tried, then i waited another 10 minutes for the first screen of the install to pop up
[12:49] <virtu> anyone can help me with one gdesklet? please
[12:49] <cablesm102> oddmanout, there shouldn't be much of a difference. How much RAM do you have?
[12:49] <riotkittie> oddmanout: if you want. or just get the 6.10 alt install cd.
[12:49] <jrib> virtu: give more information
[12:49] <oddmanout> cablesml02: 256
[12:49] <ala> kitche:  that sounds reasonable.  but it is not that way for all packages right?  I suppose this because udev is a system package?
[12:49] <tecywiz121> the funney thing is, I had one that didn't work before, so I went and bought a new one... It turns out that its the same card with a different name
[12:50] <huascar80> how can i stop nautilus from remembering window/icon size, position ... etc...
[12:50] <dexter_> cze
[12:50] <huascar80> ?
[12:50] <mariusz> heloo
[12:50] <kitche> ala: the onyl thing that you really need to reboot for is for kernel update
[12:50] <oddmanout> I'll try the text install if this last attempt doesn't work. then I'll try 6.06 as a last resort
[12:50] <mena> cablem102,u opened site java.com and i verify the installation and its told me i have old ver
[12:50] <cablesm102> oddmanout, that seems like it might not be enough.
[12:50] <mena> i ..sorry
[12:51] <nikitis> How do I completely clean my system from install NVIDIA drivers.  Something got messed up seriously and reinstalling them hasn't fixed the problem.  Anyone know?
[12:51] <cablesm102> mena, not sure then.
[12:51] <oddmanout> cablesml02: in what sense?
[12:51] <ala> kitche: Setting up libvolumeid0 (093-0ubuntu18.0edgy2) ...
[12:51] <ala> Setting up volumeid (093-0ubuntu18.0edgy2) ...
[12:51] <ala> update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.17-10-generic
[12:51] <cablesm102> nikitis, you need to restore your xorg.conf
[12:51] <oddmanout> cablesml102: oh, you mean ram
[12:51] <mena> cablem102,okay no prb
[12:51] <cablesm102> oddmanout, yes.
[12:51] <virtu> ok jrib when I try to run a gdesklet called Rhythmlets it gave following error: "Could not find sensor 'Rhythmlet' /usr/share/gdesklets/Displays/rhythmlet/rhythmlet.display A sensor could not be found. This usualy menas that it has not been installed"
[12:51] <dexter_> mariusz daj na prv
[12:51] <mena> cablem102,thanks
[12:51] <ala> that is a kernel update...right?
[12:51] <nikitis> cablesm102: what about the nvidia-common files and such,  Those have to be cleaned too
[12:51] <virtu> jrib, so what sensor that I dont have installed?
[12:52] <cablesm102> nikitis, is anything broken?
[12:52] <oddmanout> ah, here goes the install screen
[12:52] <kitche> ala: no that just regenerates initrd image but you can pretty much say it is
[12:52] <jrib> virtu: no idae
[12:52] <jrib> idea even
[12:52] <dexter_> :-)
[12:52] <virtu> jrib, :(
[12:52] <oddmanout> where is the sys requirements page on ubuntu.com
[12:52] <nikitis> yes, direct rendering, but everything else points to the fact that the drivers are working.  Cept when I do a glxinfo | grep vendor I only get 2 NVIDIA logos and 1 SGI logo
[12:52] <cablesm102> oddmanout, i was looking for those, couldn't find it
[12:52] <virtu> jrib, everything seems to be fine here
[12:53] <nikitis> cablesm102: when I go to run a 3D game i get unable to start 3D acceleration
[12:53] <ala> kitche:  ok... on ubuntu desktop top a balloon comes up and suggests rebooting.  is there a log file that says something like that in the server edition?
[12:53] <cablesm102> nikitis, can i help you in private chat?
[12:53] <nrdb> i am looking for a C source example on how to use the serial port, can anyone help ?
[12:53] <nikitis> cablesm102: absolutely
[12:53] <jrib> nrdb: try ##c maybe
[12:53] <ugarit> how does one go about configuring the MIDI device on a pc?
[12:53] <nrdb> jrib: ?
[12:54] <oddmanout> I'd be surprised if 256 isn't enough, I think
[12:54] <kitche> ala: no well unless you installed ubuntu-desktop or something and use that
[12:54] <janga> virtu, there is a install_sensor.bin in the package
[12:54] <riotkittie> 256mb RAM is fine, i'm running 6.06 with that
[12:54] <jrib> nrdb: the channel dedicated to the C language can probably help you better than #ubuntu
[12:54] <tecywiz121> any ideas for a belkin network card?
[12:54] <ala> kitche: ok thanks
[12:54] <nrdb> jrib: ok thanks
[12:54] <belkin> tecywiz121 stop saying my nick :)
[12:54] <riotkittie> and have been able to run both GNOME and KDE without probs
[12:54] <oddmanout> cablesml02: guess if it's too much I could go with xubuntu
[12:54] <tecywiz121> belkin, sorry, hard to avoid it :P
[12:54] <virtu> janga, hmm.. I got the package from gdesklets-data..
[12:55] <belkin> tecywiz121 :)))
[12:55] <riotkittie> on a 750mhz p3
[12:55] <virtu> janga, where I can find the source of the gdesklet rhythmlet?
[12:55] <oddmanout> riotkittie: thanks for the info
[12:56] <oddmanout> this is a 2.6 ghz
[12:56] <janga> virtu, http://gdesklets.zencomputer.ca/
[12:56] <oddmanout> should be fine
[12:56] <arthus> I am having issues with WAN dns
[12:56] <dexter_> j
[12:56] <corevette> how do i mount my second hard drive?
[12:56] <tecywiz121> ok, so the driver xubuntu is loading is 8139too, and it fails with error -16
[12:56] <frogzoo> corevette: sata or ide?
[12:56] <ugarit> corevette mount /dev/hdb
[12:56] <high-freq> corevette: use the mount command
[12:57] <mariusz> dexter jestes:>
[12:57] <oddmanout> downloading the 6.06 image now
[12:57] <virtu> janga, ok
[12:57] <corevette> uagrit: mount: can't find /dev/hdb in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[12:57] <RamiKassab> if I have a shared server development server where multiple projects are hosted on this server, do I only need one CVS repository? In this case, do I just create modules (projects) for each project hosted on the server?
[12:57] <RamiKassab> furthermore, how do I password protect the modules (projects) so that only certain developers can access certain modules?
[12:57] <RamiKassab> and let's say one developer is working on two of these projects, can I give him one username that has access to multiple modules?
[12:57] <dexter_> jak ty to robisz ze nie dziala ?
[12:58] <diskus> !offtopic
[12:58] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:58] <juano__> nikitis: any luck??
[12:58] <corevette> frogzoo....what are the differences between sata or ide??? if i do mount /dev/hdb i get: mount: can't find /dev/hdb in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[12:58] <high-freq> ramikassab: try and see if chown by certain groups or sumtin...if thats what your gettin at...put certain people in a certain group and only they can access that area
[12:58] <mariusz> to nie ja jestem znawca ubuntu :P !!
[12:59] <DavoFrom818> ok
[12:59] <DavoFrom818> i have ubuntu vmware edition and its not seeing the ethernet why?
[01:00] <juano__> corevette: you cant do mount /dev/hdb , you need to give a mount point
[01:00] <eternalswd> I've finally come to the point that I want to ditch my windows partition alltogether.  Are there any special things I need to do to get grub set up correctly for next boot?  Can I join the old windows partition with the ubuntu partition once it's formatted to ext3?
[01:00] <corevette> where do i mount juano__
[01:00] <juano__> corevette: mount /dev/hdb /media/myotherHDD
[01:00] <oddmanout> eternalswd: with luck and backups
[01:00] <nomasteryoda> no
[01:00] <juano__> corevette: sudo mkdir /media/hdb
[01:01] <juano__> corevette: sudo mount /dev/hdb /media/hdb
[01:01] <RamiKassab> high-freq: by default, does cvs allow every local machine user to access all modules?
[01:01] <nomasteryoda> eternalswd, just umount it then mount after formatting as ext3 using gparted
[01:01] <virtu> janga, I ran the Install and still the same error :(
[01:01] <juano__> corevette: then go into /media/hdb
[01:01] <nikitis> juano__: no still trying to figure it out
[01:01] <high-freq> not too sure on cvs..i never set one up....could be possible tho
[01:01] <juano__> corevette: plus you need to mount a partition from there
[01:01] <corevette> juano__ mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[01:01] <juano__> corevette: needs to be hdb1
[01:02] <juano__> corevette: you cant /dev/hdb , has to be /dev/hdb1 or hdb2
[01:02] <juano__> corevette: you need to specify the partition number
[01:02] <RamiKassab> high-freq: is it better to create different repositories for each development project and just load modules associated with that dev project within it's respective repo?
[01:02] <DavoFrom818> why does no one answer me
[01:02] <high-freq> cuz its your nick
[01:02] <juano__> corevette: sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /media/hdb
[01:02] <nomasteryoda> DavoFrom818, whats the question/
[01:02] <DavoFrom818> serious man
[01:02] <corevette> juano__ there is no hdb1: mount: special device /dev/hdb1 does not exist
[01:03] <DavoFrom818> ok im running the ubuntu server for vmware
[01:03] <Xenguy> nomasteryoda: /lastlog DavoFrom818   ?
[01:03] <DavoFrom818> and i dont see the ethernet for some reason
[01:03] <high-freq> ramikassab: that might work..but then again...cvs might allow u to create the end users like ftp and such
[01:03] <juano__> corevette: sudo fdisk -l and pastebin
[01:04] <mena> What if i dowenload the last azureus app then i want to install it as i installed it from the adept is that could be
[01:04] <nomasteryoda> DavoFrom818, well try this... sudo network-admin
[01:04] <nomasteryoda> check settings there
[01:04] <DavoFrom818> says command not found
[01:04] <nomasteryoda> mena, sudo dpkg -i azureus.deb
[01:04] <dropsl> hi
[01:04] <nomasteryoda> if it is a deb
[01:04] <drx> hello
[01:05] <dropsl> please help me, i have a directory called "OwnFiles$" now i cant remove it or delete it, because the attribute of the folder is: ?--------- ? and even root can't delete etc...
[01:05] <nomasteryoda> welcome dropsl
[01:05] <mena> its in tar
[01:05] <dropsl> its probaly because of the $ in the name....
[01:05] <juano__> mena: then youll have to compile
[01:05] <nomasteryoda> ah
[01:05] <corevette> juano__ http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/3401/
[01:05] <DavoFrom818> nomasteryoda says  command not found
[01:05] <juano__> mena: tar -xvf azureusname.tar
[01:05] <mena> juano__, you mean make a packdge
[01:05] <nomasteryoda> DavoFrom818, you did sudo?
[01:05] <nikitis> How do I restore my xorg.conf?  My xorg.conf_backup got screwed around with on accident
[01:05] <drx> i issued a copy command on a large file (3GB) and now GNOME has locked up, I'm afraid to stop it because the file I'm moving is important & took hours to make.
[01:05] <DavoFrom818> yes
[01:05] <mena> juano__, okay
[01:06] <frogzoo> dropsl: root can delete pretty much everything
[01:06] <DavoFrom818> nomasteryoda: "sudo: network-admin: command not found"
[01:06] <dropsl> now even ls -l does not work, it justs hangs
[01:06] <juano__> corevette: you dont have partitions in your second HDD , your hdb
[01:06] <nomasteryoda> DavoFrom818, this is ubuntu?
[01:06] <dropsl> frogzoo: ls -l does not work in the folder containing that "OwnFiles$"...
[01:06] <DavoFrom818> yes
[01:06] <DavoFrom818> ubuntu server
[01:06] <juano__> corevette: you need to partition that HDD first
[01:06] <corevette> how juano__
[01:07] <dropsl> frogzoo: the attributes say, the file has no creator no date and no attributes...
[01:07] <juano__> corevette: is this HDD new?
[01:07] <frogzoo> dropsl: well if those permissions are right, you can't enter the directory
[01:07] <corevette> juano__ not really n
[01:07] <corevette> o
[01:07] <Xenguy> drx: maybe run 'top' to see whether the 'cp' is still in process  ?
[01:07] <juano__> corevette: i mean, you never partitioned this HDD before right? does it have anything inside ?
[01:07] <frogzoo> dropsl: if the directory has $ in it, escape it with \
[01:07] <dropsl> frogzoo: konqueror just does not show it. in the bash it was shown with those attributes, but now ls -l does not work, so i can't see those attributes...
[01:08] <dropsl> frogzoo: yeah i do so...
[01:08] <DavoFrom818> nomasteryoda any ideas?
[01:08] <corevette> oh nothing inside juano__.....but i have partitioned it NTFS....but not anymore

[01:10] <juano__> corevette: gksudo gparted?
[01:10] <janga> virtu, i havent used gdesklets for a long time, bur for temperature you have to install lm-sensors and then run sensors-detect.
[01:10] <dropsl> frogzoo: the folder was created by smb4k by mounting a windows share... so it obiously created the folder wrong...?
[01:10] <DavoFrom818> omg he ditched me
[01:11] <DavoFrom818> lol

[01:12] <virtu> janga, ok thanks anyway
[01:12] <corevette> ok i'm at gparted juano__
[01:12] <frogzoo> dropsl: you're quite wrong - ls -ld will show that folder
[01:12] <juano__> corevette: ok, select your HDB hard disk at top right
[01:12] <corevette> yup
[01:12] <juano__> corevette: is it empty ?
[01:12] <corevette> yes juano__
[01:12] <Xenguy> drx: how's it look?
[01:13] <dropsl> frogzoo: here is the output of the ls -ld: "ls: OwnFiles$: Input/output error"
[01:13] <corevette> all unallocated juano
[01:13] <juano__> corevette: ok, well you can partition your HDD with this program
[01:13] <corevette> primary partition juano__?
[01:13] <corevette> or extended juano__
[01:13] <juano__> corevette: depends on what you want to do with it
[01:13] <janga> DavoFrom818, what does "ifconfig" say?
[01:13] <miehe> who are french
[01:13] <corevette> what does either do juano__
[01:13] <frogzoo> dropsl: create a new terminal & try ls -ld again
[01:13] <juano__> corevette: what you want to do with this HDD ?
[01:13] <DavoFrom818> janga all i have is Lo
[01:13] <miehe> who are french
[01:14] <corevette> put stuff on it....under the hdd i'm using now
[01:14] <juano__> corevette: leave it for extra space for linux? or for windows ? or install another OS on it?
[01:14] <corevette> extra space juano__
[01:14] <miehe> how to install emacs on linux
[01:14] <frogzoo> !fr | miehe
[01:14] <ubotu> miehe: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[01:14] <tommason> Well here is a less intrusive version of the error.. E: libapache2-mod-geoip: subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 127
[01:14] <janga> DavoFrom818, then "lspci" and look if nic has been found.
[01:15] <dropsl> frogzoo: it just says the same error as previously...
[01:15] <juano__> corevette: ok, this is the deal, if you make filesystem ext3, it wont be accesable by windows, BUT, if you format to ntfs you can use it for windows and linux extra space, cause from linux you can access ntfs
[01:15] <corevette> i don't have windows juano__
[01:15] <dropsl> frogzoo: does there exists a fix utility that checks for inconsistency oder something?
[01:15] <corevette> nor do i want it juano
[01:15] <juano__> corevette: hehehe ok
[01:15] <juano__> corevette: then just format the whole thing to ext3
[01:15] <kitche> dropsl: there is fsck like checkdisk
[01:15] <tommason> I have tried using apt-get remove and and using the synaptic package manager but I am still unable to remove mod-geoip.. Never should have installed it in the first place..
[01:15] <DavoFrom818> yeah i see ethernet controller
[01:16] <corevette> extended partition juano__?
[01:16] <DavoFrom818> janga yeah i see ethernet controller
[01:16] <|Shadow|> yay, ubuntu install complete
[01:16] <|Shadow|> :D
[01:16] <frogzoo> dropsl: is this directory within a samba share?
[01:16] <juano__> corevette: yes first make extended
[01:16] <dropsl> frogzoo: no it is on my local /home partition
[01:16] <corevette> then apply juano__?
[01:16] <juano__> corevette: then make a logic partition with ext3 filesystem type
[01:16] <juano__> corevette: not yet
[01:16] <janga> DavoFrom818, then try "sudo ifconfig <IP_ADDRESS>"
[01:17] <dropsl> frogzoo: the weird thing is that i moved it to trash without problems, but now i just doesn't want to go away
[01:17] <frogzoo> dropsl: well what does smb4k have to do with it?
[01:17] <juano__> corevette: after making extended, make a logic partition with ext3 filesystem type
[01:17] <miehe> who are french
[01:17] <DavoFrom818> janga says device not found
[01:17] <jelloman> guys
[01:17] <juano__> corevette: this is over your extended

[01:17] <corevette> how big juano__
[01:17] <corevette> oh ok juano__
[01:17] <juano__> corevette: as big as you want
[01:17] <dropsl> frogzoo: smb4k creates a folder  and mounts the network share in it
[01:18] <juano__> corevette: that depends on how much space of the HDD you want to use for extra space
[01:18] <dropsl> frogzoo: perhabs i should reboot...
[01:18] <corevette> ext3 on top of an extended juano__?
[01:18] <janga> DavoFrom818, so what is the name of the nic in lspci?
[01:18] <|Shadow|> lol yay, 116 updates
[01:18] <linuxnewbie756> i need to chmod /var/lib/tor, i tried sudo chmod -R 1000, not sure what it needs to be, but i want it so that tor will work
[01:18] <ugarit> any recommendations for good partitioning for an enterprise level server
[01:18] <juano__> corevette: ext3 will be your logical partition that lies in your extended partition

[01:20] <juano__> corevette: yes, check to see if everything is ok, if everything was made on hdb and NOT hda and that your partitions are what you want
[01:20] <n1sxk> hi
[01:20] <frogzoo> willys_fueguino: see /var/log/messages & /var/log/syslog
[01:20] <tim167> what's "clearing orphaned inode" ?
[01:20] <corevette> welcome welcome welcom n1sxk
[01:21] <tommason> I am lost as to why I cannot uninstall mod-geoip..
[01:21] <willys_fueguino> frogzoo: none of them has it :-\
[01:21] <corevette> juano it says /dev/hdb5
[01:22] <juano__> nikitis: cat /etc/modules ?
[01:22] <cablesm102> Can anyone explain to me why anyone would use apt-get and not aptitude?
[01:22] <juano__> nikitis: is there an nvidia line in there ?
[01:22] <frogzoo> cablesm102: apt-get's pretty bullet proof
[01:22] <dropsl> hi
[01:22] <juano__> corevette: ok then , there is only one big partition thats deb hdb5 right ?
[01:22] <cablesm102> frogzoo, Aptitude isn't?
[01:23] <nikitis> juano__: i just uninstalled everything.  Can you open a private chat with me
[01:23] <eternalswd> how do I manually mount a new ext3 partition?
[01:23] <frogzoo> cablesm102: apt-get's never given me problems
[01:23] <corevette> yes juano
[01:23] <dropsl> frogzoo: just wanted to say that after a reboot i could delete the folder... really weird. but thanks for your help!! :)
[01:23] <Jas-Nix_> eternalswd: mount /path/to/device /path/to/directory
[01:23] <juano__> corevette: ok then everything seems good, apply then
[01:24] <Fusheh> Heya, I just restarted up ubuntu and I'm getting "GDM xserver not found". Now trying to execute a file that doesnt exist is what the problem is. How would I change this to get xserver working again?
[01:24] <corevette> juano i did a sudo mount /dev/hdb5 /media/hdb       it looked like it works
[01:24] <DavoFrom818> anyone that can help me get this thing up and running?
[01:24] <juano__> corevette: good
[01:24] <corevette> thx juano

[01:25] <tommason> So what should I do with about the issue with mod-geoip.. I am new to ubuntu and have been able to figure most things out but this has me stumped
[01:25] <corevette> ok juano__
[01:25] <juano__> corevette: or from nautilus just go to /media/hdb
[01:25] <nofxx> Jas-Nix: i guess ffmpeg can do it
[01:25] <corevette> yup
[01:25] <eternalswd> Jas-Nix, what would I do in fstab to get it to automount after I reboot?  would it be something like /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 ext3 defaults 0 1?
[01:25] <juano__> corevette: thats 80 GB free to use ;-) now
[01:25] <janga> DavoFrom818, sorry i dont know you probably have to modprobe the right module. Is it a AMD onboard chip?
[01:25] <cablesm102> Can anyone explain the advantages of apt-get over aptitude? it seems like every guide I read specifies apt-get, even though Aptitude has more powerful dependency handling.
[01:25] <ubuntu> hi!
[01:25] <arthus> hullo
[01:25] <Jas-Nix> eternalswd: ya kinda like that..

[01:26] <arthus> can anyone help me with a resolution issue?
[01:26] <aridese> cablesm102: im sorry
[01:26] <corevette> thanks juano__!
[01:26] <Jas-Nix> DavoFrom818: where did you get that command from ?
[01:26] <aridese> cablesm102: it's just debian standard
[01:26] <DavoFrom818> google.com
[01:26] <Jas-Nix> DavoFrom818: can you link me to a webpage or something ?
[01:26] <juano__> corevette: anytime!
[01:26] <frogzoo> !helpme | arthus
[01:26] <ubotu> arthus: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:26] <cablesm102> aridese, so is aptitude. Are there any other reasons for sticking with apt-get?
[01:26] <thisheregiraffe> cablesm102, i've always stuck with aptitude, because of the dependency handling..
[01:26] <nonades> I'm having trouble with crontab, can anyone help me with it?
[01:26] <|Shadow|> if anyones got some time can they help me to set up my xorg.conf file for dual monitors?
[01:26] <juano__> corevette: that formatting was quick lol
[01:26] <cablesm102> thisheregiraffe, same here... juts wondering why most guides specify apt-get.
[01:26] <frogzoo> arthus: don't be vague
[01:26] <DavoFrom818> shoot i copied and pased one sec let me goole it again
[01:26] <Fusheh> Heya, I just restarted up ubuntu and I'm getting "GDM xserver not found". Now trying to execute a file that doesnt exist is what the problem is. How would I change this to get xserver working again?
[01:26] <corevette> yup juano
[01:26] <juano__> corevette: is it a SATA?
[01:27] <corevette> how do i tell juano
[01:27] <Jas-Nix> uh..
[01:27] <thisheregiraffe> cablesm102, it's a slightly shorter command to type?  who knows--i've never noticed a huge difference
[01:27] <Jas-Nix> oops, wrong term
[01:27] <kitche> cablesm102: they do the same thing just use what one you like better but one advantage with aptitude is the dependency following and that's about it
[01:27] <Jas-Nix> DavoFrom818: thanks
[01:27] <Jas-Nix> DavoFrom818: is it a linux app, I don't have winblowz installed.
[01:27] <nofxx> Kernel panic on the clients with LTSP.... clients are semprom 64.... server ubuntu 6.10 i386
[01:27] <juano__> corevette: well at the BIOS maybe, or else just open up the PC and look at the plug from the HDD to the motherboard
[01:27] <nofxx> any hel
[01:28] <tommason> well I guess if I can't get it uninstalled I will be making the switch to gentoo.. been trying to avoid doing it but.. Now is as good a time as any to do it..
[01:28] <frogzoo> corevette: for x in a b c d ; do sudo fdisk -l /dev/sd$x ; done
[01:28] <arthus> I need to set my resolution to 1440x900, but it does not go up to that in resolution options
[01:28] <juano__> corevette: if its grey and wide its IDE if its a red thin cable its SATA mostly
[01:28] <Moosebuntu> Can someone help me setup Freenet on Ubuntu GNU/LInux?  I'm getting errors when running the commands shown here: http://freenetproject.org/download.html
[01:28] <corevette> yup my pc is open juano.....its a skinny + long gray wire
[01:28] <Ralith> hey, I'm having trouble getting my flash plugin working
[01:28] <corevette> *wires juano__
[01:28] <Ralith> I've installed flashplugin-nonfree
[01:28] <Ralith> and checked that the ~/.mozilla/plugins link is correct
[01:28] <juano__> corevette: is it very wide?
[01:28] <willys_fueguino> Hi everyone... I need to know where is the log of the messages from tty8?? (It seems that isn't on /var/log*)
[01:28] <Ralith> but it doesn't work in firefox
[01:29] <eternalswd> Jas-Nix, what exactly is the pass option for?
[01:29] <corevette> the metal prongs it plugs into is about 2 x 25ish juano__
[01:29] <Jas-Nix> eternalswd: pass ?
[01:29] <cablesm102> Ralith, flashplugin-nonfree installs Flash 7. You probably want Flash 9, which may be more compatible with websites. Maybe you're testing on a site that requires Flash 9.
[01:30] <eternalswd> Jas-Nix, the last number in an fstab line.
[01:30] <arthus> I need to set my resolution to 1440x900, but it does not go up to that in resolution options

[01:30] <juano__> corevette: corevette well if the cable is the same as the CD device then it sure is an IDE
[01:30] <DavoFrom818> !fixres|arthus do it by hand
[01:30] <juano__> corevette: if it is very different its a SATA
[01:30] <corevette> yup juano
[01:30] <nonades> I'm having trouble with crontab, can anyone help me with it? pm me
[01:30] <tommason> Ok I guess no one knows anything about mod-geoip and why I would be unable to remove it
[01:30] <corevette> nope
[01:31] <juano__> corevette: should be IDE then
[01:31] <josephduchesne> hello
[01:31] <jkillaz> why does my font looks so bad?
[01:32] <jkillaz> I already tried different settings using System -> Pref -> Fonts
[01:32] <jkillaz> but still this is not great
[01:32] <Ralith> jkillaz, are you running a nonnative resolution on an LCD display?
[01:33] <jkillaz> Im using the only resolution available on my laptop
[01:33] <FlyingSquirrel33> how can I find my default gateway if my interface was configured via dhcp?
[01:33] <Jas-Nix> DavoFrom818: did you find it...?
[01:33] <jkillaz> 1024x768 on a Dell Latitude D610
[01:33] <mena> juano__,
[01:33] <thisheregiraffe> FlyingSquirrel33, i think the ifconfig command ought to tell you what you need
[01:33] <kitche> FlyingSquirrel33: type in sudo route and see what is default
[01:33] <Fusheh> "GDM Xserver not found" I keep getting this error when I try to start ubuntu. GDM is trying to execute a file that doesnt exist. How can I correct this? I know I have xserver installed I assume I just need to point it towards it! :O
[01:34] <FlyingSquirrel33> thisheregiraffe: no
[01:34] <mena> juano__, i want to make my system use 128128 size of icones just this
[01:34] <FlyingSquirrel33> kitche: yes
[01:34] <mena> juano__, how to do
[01:34] <willys_fueguino> Hi everyone... I need to know where is the log of the messages from tty8?? (It seems that isn't on /var/log*)
[01:34] <FlyingSquirrel33> thisheregiraffe, kitche: Thanks.
[01:34] <josephduchesne> I just changed my login options and now instead of a login screen I get a grey screen with an X mouse and after that nothing happens at all. How can I turn automatic login back on?
[01:35] <mena> juano__, never mind i find it
[01:36] <codi> if i just installed a new version of wine through add/remove programs, shouldn't it be the newest available?
[01:37] <kitche> codi: depends if it came right from winhq.com
[01:37] <dm_> I have a daemon that keeps crashing on me, is there anyway to have it AUTORESTART the daemon if it crashes?
[01:37] <nonades> Can anyone here help me wiht crontab?
[01:37] <chona> hi i just need help..i'm trying to install Apache PHP  and MySQL... the first two seemed okay, but i dont think i successfully installed mysql...
[01:37] <hikenboot__> can anyone tell me what path is the default path for the install of firefox/mozilla/opera ...is there a command that would tell me this without searching with find or locate? which doesnt seem to give me the right path either
[01:37] <Jas-Nix> kitche: are you the same one thats in #sourcemage?
[01:37] <Flannel> codi: no.  Ubuntu versions (versions of programs per each ubuntu repository) are frozen each release.  Which is why, for instance, Dapper has FF1.5, and wont ever have 2.0
[01:37] <codi> i guess it didn't, cause it's a bit behind. can i now just run apt update to get the newest?
[01:38] <cablesm102> nonades, for a guide to crontab, use the command "man crontab"
[01:38] <Flannel> hikenboot__: which path does it give?
[01:38] <Flannel> codi: only the newest in the repository
[01:38] <kitche> Jas-Nix: yes haven't worked on SourceMage in a long time though
[01:38] <nonades> That doesn't help
[01:38] <Jas-Nix> ya me either
[01:38] <chona> please help...
[01:38] <Flannel> !lamp | chona
[01:38] <ubotu> chona: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[01:39] <codi> ok, so what are my options then, if i already have the newest in the repo, and i need newer than that
[01:39] <hikenboot__> which gives /usr/bin/mozilla ...the tar.gz for flash doesnt seem to like it
[01:39] <Flannel> chona: that URL has all the info you need
[01:39] <Jas-Nix> we worked on getting aiglx going together
[01:39] <andriijas> i have 2 sound cards, i dont wish to use the default one, how do i change?
[01:39] <Flannel> hikenboot__: install flash from the repositories, in backports
[01:39] <chona> thanks ubotu..
[01:39] <|Shadow|> can anyone please help me with xorg.conf? i have a dual head graphics card with another monitor and i wish to enable it with ubuntu
[01:39] <Jas-Nix> kitche: ^^
[01:39] <hikenboot__> ok thanks
[01:40] <KillerT> |Shadow|: ati or nvidia?
[01:40] <andriijas> !sound
[01:40] <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 - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[01:40] <|Shadow|> KillerT ATI
[01:40] <Fusheh> GDM keeps telling me xserver not found. Where is the config file that I have to edit to direct GDM to my xserver?
[01:40] <codi> can i add the wine repository and then update?
[01:41] <kitche> Fusheh: it finds xserver automatically\
[01:41] <Flannel> !wine | codi, yeah that's what you'll end up doing.  Well, removing and installing
[01:41] <ubotu> codi, yeah that's what you'll end up doing.  Well, removing and installing: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[01:41] <KillerT> |Shadow|: basically u make two screens that point to the same device
[01:41] <Fusheh> Well it cant find it, it keeps trying to execute a file that doesnt exist.
[01:41] <codi> remove, aww man
[01:41] <BrendanM> So I have an ATI Radeon Mobility 9000, what would be the best driver for me to use, the open source ones or ATI's fglrx proprietary drivers?
[01:42] <codi> here comes a complete reinstall. i know it
[01:42] <|Shadow|> KillerT like if i just copy and paste the Section "Screen" ?
[01:42] <Flannel> codi: no no, just of wine
[01:42] <BrunoSilva> quit
[01:42] <codi> yah, and beryl is a piece of cake to setup
[01:42] <codi> but then uh oh, x won't start
[01:42] <KillerT> |Shadow|: hold on i use nvidia but with my old ati i think there was one thing needed to be changed let me go look
[01:42] <|Shadow|> KillerT ok thanks :)
[01:43] <Fusheh> Codi: Thats kinda my problem lol D:
[01:43] <Flannel> codi: neither beryl, nor wine are supported directly by Ubuntu, but wine should be fine, you'll just be removing the one you just installed, and installing a different version.
[01:43] <Fusheh> I'm stuck using lynx and irssi! Oh noes D:
[01:44] <codi> yah, adding a repository is something of a challenge too
[01:44] <KillerT> |Shadow|: is it a dvi and vga port or two vga ports?
[01:44] <codi> 8 different ways i've read about
[01:44] <|Shadow|> KillerT it has one vga port, and one vga like port thats about twice the length, with a convert on it to make it vga
[01:44] <|Shadow|> i don't know what the second port is called though :P
[01:45] <codi> wheres that sources.lst?
[01:45] <Flannel> codi: there are hardly eight.  Well, I suppose there could be.  But ultimately, you'll just be editing your sources.list, whether that's through a text editor, or a GUI frontend.
[01:45] <Flannel> codi: /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:45] <KillerT> |Shadow|: prob dvi to vga
[01:45] <|Shadow|> KillerT yea its a dvi, just found some pictures on google :)
[01:46] <codi> ok, so i've added the rep to my list
[01:46] <codi> now i use add/remove to uninstall the old wine?
[01:46] <KillerT> |Shadow|: I've never done dvi to vga i am not sure if u need to pass extra options...I know with dvi to hdmi setup (one for my 36" hdtv) I had to pass extra options
[01:46] <Flannel> codi: er, probably would work.  A more failsafe method -- sudo apt-get remove --purge wine
[01:47] <Flannel> codi: I'm not sure if add/remove will remove config files
[01:47] <|Shadow|> hmm, well i guess we can allways try and if not just put the file back to how it was?
[01:47] <KillerT> |Shadow|: http://tonywhitmore.co.uk/blog/2006/02/07/dual-head-on-ati-radeon-9200-se-under-ubuntu/ has an example of a dual head configuration u can kinda try but u may need change here and there
[01:47] <|Shadow|> KillerT ok i'll look at that :)
[01:47] <codi> ok, wines been removed through the purge, now what?
[01:47] <Flannel> codi: install the wine from the wine repository
[01:47] <codi> should add/remove pick up on the new repository
[01:48] <codi> or do i use synaptic?
[01:48] <Flannel> codi: no, add/remove only has a small fixed set of programs, you'll want to use synaptic
[01:48] <Fusheh> GDM: Xserver not found: /usr/local/bin/Xg1 :0 :0 ......(some more stuff here) || This is my error, there is no /usr/local/Xg1. Anyone know a fix or at least guide me in the right direction to solving this problem? xD
[01:48] <codi> question: if i were to install something through add/remove, could i uninstall it through synaptic?
[01:48] <ubuntu> i tried to install edgy from a fat32 device
[01:48] <ubuntu> and i managed to boot it
[01:48] <codi> is it more or less the same thing, just synaptic has advanced features?
[01:49] <ubuntu> and to debootstrap manually
[01:49] <Flannel> codi: yes, just like youjust removed it with apt-get, they all work with the same packages
[01:49] <ubuntu> now i don't know what to do
[01:49] <ubuntu> to setup grub
[01:49] <Flannel> !grub  | ubuntu, first link
[01:49] <ubotu> ubuntu, first link: 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
[01:49] <kritical> I'm trying to add scp to my ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file... does anyone know how to do this? if not does anyone know what command scp executes remotely?
[01:50] <KillerT> ubuntu: is there anyway u could change ur name for me?
[01:50] <|Shadow|> KillerT if i use his exact xorg.conf file, does it stand a high chance of working?
[01:50] <Jas-Nix> Does anyone know how to burn .mkv movie files to DVD ? I would like to convert them to .VOB files
[01:50] <KillerT> |Shadow|: no
[01:50] <|Shadow|> or should i pull out the monitors and screens section and try that
[01:50] <|Shadow|> (i made a backup of my xorg.conf so i can allways go back)
[01:50] <Fusheh> Hey is this how the graphical end of *nix works (Or in ubuntu's case at least) Xserver - GDM...is there more in the middle or what?
[01:50] <Eons> killerT sorry I didn
[01:50] <KillerT> Eons: Thanks your the bomb
[01:50] <Eons> t noticed =)
[01:51] <KillerT> |Shadow|: You need to adjust it to your settings
[01:51] <kitche> Fusheh: Xserver is needed for a graphical system
[01:51] <nikin> i have a notebook here with sis 650 GFX card and it does not support dri. do i stand any chance on running compiz on this?
[01:51] <Fusheh> Yeah, but does it load Xserver then GDM
[01:51] <Fusheh> Anything after or before or in the middle?
[01:51] <|Shadow|> KillerT ah, i think i get the idea
[01:51] <kitche> Fusheh: gdm loads xserver
[01:51] <Fusheh> Ahh okay thank you
[01:51] <ranzabau> hello everybody
[01:52] <Fusheh> So gdm looks for an xserver to load, what config file controls this?
[01:52] <kitche> Fusheh: but xserver is what's underneath gdm though
[01:52] <nikin> inst there a fake dri or something like that avilable?
[01:52] <KillerT> nikin: fake?
[01:53] <Fusheh> kitche: That just mind raped me :o || Meaning you need xserver to load gdm which loads xserver :o
[01:53] <cameotwat> gparted is saying it can't resize my NTFS partition (using a live CD here)
[01:53] <nikin> KillerT: this GFX card has no dri support at all so compiz doesnot start i get an error: "no managable svreens"
[01:53] <nikin> screens*
[01:54] <codi> so should i always use synaptic if i can?
[01:54] <Flannel> codi: it doesn't matter
[01:54] <KillerT> nikin: what card?
[01:54] <codi> well if it gets me newer versions of software, wouldn't that be better?
[01:55] <nikin> KillerT : as far as i know its a SIS 650
[01:55] <KillerT> ew
[01:55] <shmeelAway> audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=music: Could not get/set settings from/on resource. dang, my USB wireless music thing won't work
[01:55] <KillerT> nikin: sorry i wouldn't be able to help you havn't ran a sis in say 6 years
[01:55] <Eons> Flannel: hey thanks
[01:55] <fluvvell> what are the minimum requirements for an xserver, say on a server machine i just want vncviewer to run. (so I can look at pcs on the network)
[01:55] <Eons> i didn't remember correctly
[01:56] <Eons> it was update-grub
[01:56] <fluvvell> !xserver
[01:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xserver - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:57] <codi> hmm, the wine repository from the help.ubuntu page doesn't bring up the newest version, only the old version i just uninstalled
[01:57] <Eons> and not grub-update
[01:57] <kitche> fluvvell: depends what you use gnome tends to like 128 mb but cna run on 64mb minium
[01:57] <arthus> I need help fixing xserver
[01:57] <arthus> It will not start
[01:57] <arthus> !display
[01:57] <arthus> ! resolution
[01:57] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[01:57] <chona> hi ubotu...thanks i think i had successfullt installed it...would it work even if i was no able to instal phpmyadmin??
[01:57] <KillerT> fluvvell: I'm pretty sure all ur required to have is some type of xserver installed no window manager is needed as u will be viewing the one over the network
[01:58] <codi> aha, i had to grab a key or something, now it shows the newest
[01:58] <fluvvell> KillerT, yes I've biffed in xserver-xorg, but not sure how to start it
[01:58] <TW> Is there a link that tells you how to decide if you want 6.06 LTS vs 6.10 ?
[01:58] <kitche> fluvvell: startx will start X
[01:59] <codi> how do i know what repositories i still need keys for?
[01:59] <kitche> chona: ubotu is a bot
[01:59] <KillerT> fluvvell: there are tiny x s made for exactly what u r doing too btw
[01:59] <jrib> TW: if you don't want to upgrade for 5 years, then use dapper.  If you need the latest software ubuntu provides and don't mind upgrading every 6-18 months, use 6.10
[01:59] <TW> great
[01:59] <TW> thx
[02:00] <TW> so 6.10 is still upgradable, just more often :)
[02:00] <KillerT> I'm using dapper because i am lazy
[02:00] <tim167> how do i delay a command in the shell ? (pause ? delay ? wait ?)
[02:00] <KillerT> TW: dapper is supported for 5 years so u don't hafta upgrade
[02:00] <BearPerson> sleep
[02:00] <TW> when you upgrade does it keep all your settings or is it like a full reinstall?
[02:00] <KillerT> TW: both upgradable
[02:00] <fluvvell> KillerT, any good examples?
[02:00] <tim167> BearPerson oh yes that one! tanks
[02:01] <Flannel> KillerT, TW: three years on the desktop, five on the server.
[02:01] <tigerflyer> what command do u use in order to see the kind of filesystem a partition uses?
[02:01] <KillerT> flannel Xvnx
[02:01] <KillerT> Flannel:  Xvnc
[02:01] <Ferret> tim167: sleep 5s; sleep 10m; sleep infinity
[02:01] <Flannel> TW: upgrades are upgrades, it keeps all your configs
[02:01] <TW> excellent... Thanks very much...
[02:01] <TW> Unbuntu here I come :)
[02:01] <|Shadow|> KillerT uhh, my cards running off the default drivers, and theres many diffrences to my xorg.conf and the one in the example
[02:02] <|Shadow|> im not really sure how to edit it :(
[02:02] <tigerflyer> what command do u use in order to see the kind of file system a partition uses?
[02:02] <theherbalizer> hey guys, how do i format an ext3 disk in 6.10?
[02:03] <Eons> do i need to do something else to complete install? i've debootstrapped, installed ubuntu-desktop and a kernel image (grub is ok)
[02:03] <kitche> theherbalizer: there is two ways but I do it mke2fs -j /dev/<disk>
[02:03] <KillerT> |Shadow|: Well, I would start by suggesting installing the ati drivers which might even recognize and configure some settings for you automatically
[02:03] <kitche> theherbalizer: that makes it ext3
[02:03] <Eon_>  I followed this guide ( https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/hardware.html ) to install Xorg-driver-fglrx for my Ati card,  and it sais that installing xorg will activate 3d rendering. It didnt do that for me. What else can I do to get "direct rendering: yes" when i look at glxinfo ?
[02:03] <josephduchesne> does anyone know why I would get a black screen with a X mouse on starting ubuntu?
[02:03] <soberon> hello
[02:03] <Eons> also, fstab is ok, too
[02:03] <|Shadow|> KillerT cool, arn't the drivers card specific for this?
[02:03] <|Shadow|> im not doing very well searching for EAX1600PRO drivers lol
[02:04] <theherbalizer> kitche: will that completely wipe it?
[02:04] <kitche> theherbalizer: it will do a full format
[02:04] <KillerT> |Shadow|: one sec
[02:04] <theherbalizer> kitche: thanks
[02:04] <josephduchesne> or is there any way to reset all boot options?
[02:04] <Gwanky> hi
[02:04] <Gwanky> I'm having trouble with Xserver
[02:04] <KillerT> Gwanky: hi
[02:05] <KillerT> gwanky: join the ranks
[02:05] <|Shadow|> KillerT scratch that, i found linux ati drivers :)
[02:05] <Gwanky> I have a 7600GT, do I need to download someupdated drivers or something?
[02:05] <KillerT> |Shadow|: I found it right as u said so too :oP
[02:05] <|Shadow|> lol :P
[02:05] <KillerT> radeon x1600
[02:05] <Gwanky> And does Ubuntu 4.10 support PCI-Express
[02:05] <Gwanky> ?
[02:06] <eegore> I have a mangled file system with a had super block, is there anyway to recover it?
[02:06] <|Shadow|> hmm, no clue what version of xfree86 i have
[02:06] <Jas-Nix> Gwanky: yes it does
[02:06] <eegore> [17179621.588000]  VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev hdd1.
[02:06] <KillerT> u have xorg
[02:06] <Jas-Nix> eegore: have you tried fsck?
[02:06] <KillerT> |Shadow|: most likely
[02:06] <Gwanky> Jas-Nix:Whenever I run the xserver config thing it simply says that its on the PCI Bus
[02:06] <eegore> yep and it balks
[02:07] <|Shadow|> ah ok, so the one that says "Automated installer and display drivers for XFree 86 4.3 and X.Org <list of version numbers here>"
[02:07] <KillerT> |Shadow|: word up
[02:07] <RancidLM> hey all im trying to get dual screen working in ubuntu, i got it set up correctly.. when i log into another profile the dual screens work great but when i log into my profile one monitor turns off and only one works.. what do i have to remove in my profile to get dual monitors working?
[02:07] <kidko> Has anybody encountered problems with Xorg after trying to install Beryl?
[02:07] <|Shadow|> RancidLM join the "Im trying to get dual screen working in ubuntu" club lol
[02:08] <kidko> I just tried, and then X crashed, and will not go past a blank, black screen.
[02:09] <tigerflyer> what command do u use in order to see the kind of file system a partition uses?
[02:09] <kitche> Gwanky: well PCI bus is PCi-E pci-E is just an updated version of PCI so of course it will say that
[02:09] <KillerT> RancidLM: What differs from ur profile to the others? it prob is with the window manager
[02:09] <RancidLM> |Shadow|: well it works perfectly on a empty profile but on my profile it doesn't work right, i fear i will have to remove .gconf .gnome2 but i do not want to lose ALL my settings
[02:09] <Jelloman> how do i set up ubuntu
[02:09] <Jelloman> so that it boots windows
[02:09] <Jelloman> and not ubuntu
[02:09] <Jelloman> so my parents dont have to choose
[02:09] <corevette> is there someway i can mount iso's?
[02:09] <Flannel> Jelloman: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst (you'll need to use sudo) and change the `default`
[02:09] <babo>   Jelloman: you want to set up ubuntu so that it boots windows ?
[02:09] <Jas-Nix> Jelloman: you mean so it goes to Win by default ?
[02:09] <Flannel> !iso | corevette
[02:09] <ubotu> corevette: To mount an ISO disc image, type "sudo mount -o loop my.iso <mountpoint>" There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before burning. Burning .iso files: see !burn
[02:09] <RancidLM> KillerT: the only thing that differs is one is a blank profile and one is a used profile with prevous gnome video settings.. ( i just don't know where  the settings are)
[02:10] <Arigato> does beagle index and search contents of archives?
[02:10] <Gwanky> Kitche:Actually they are completely different technologies, but PCI-e is designed to be transparent so that's proabably right. But question number two, how would I update my nivida drivers from the text only command line
[02:10] <juano__> Jelloman: imposible, you will need a boot menu loader to boot one or the other
[02:10] <Jas-Nix> Gwanky: There's a ton of howto's out there
[02:10] <Jas-Nix> Gwanky: did you google ?
[02:10] <juano__> Jelloman: that is if you want to keep both of them
[02:10] <juano__> Jelloman: windows & ubuntu
[02:11] <KillerT> RancidLM: can u take an empty profile's gnome files and compare it with ur own
[02:11] <Gwanky> Jelloman:Try configuring windows MBR to load windows by defualt unless a certain keystorke is punched in
[02:11] <Jas-Nix> first hit
[02:11] <Jas-Nix> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75074
[02:11] <Gwanky> Jelloman:Thats how I have it set up to run OSx86
[02:12] <juano__> Jelloman: ahh probably you want to make windows the default loading
[02:12] <juano__> Jelloman: follow Flannel instructions
[02:12] <Gwanky> Jelloman:Its possible to hide the MBR unless a keystroke is hit to bring it up, I just forgot how
[02:12] <KillerT> RancidLM: This is probably something u will need to play with on ur own as it will be very difficult for a third party to assist without being right there
[02:12] <alienseer23> my evolution calendar won't load, but I found it's source file, how do I recover it?
[02:12] <RancidLM> KillerT: thats what i have been doing at this point i know that a Empty gnome profile will enable dual screens but im unsure what exactly causing this problem.. is it gnome panel.. is it metacity.. i have no clue..
[02:12] <Flannel> Jelloman: ah yes, and "hidemenu" will hide the grub menu, so they'll have no choice to boot to windows (unless they hit escape, then they get the grub menu)
[02:13] <alienseer23> or at leaste, how do I reset the gnome calendar without restarting x?
[02:13] <Tonren> How do I enable the terminal "write" command?
[02:13] <KillerT> RancidLM: u don't have beryl on ur profile do u?
[02:13] <KillerT> or compiz?
[02:13] <corevette> flannel...how do you unmount....
[02:13] <RancidLM> Killer_: i do but its not running at all. im running metacity
[02:13] <KillerT> corevette: umount
[02:13] <RancidLM> KillerT: i do but its not running at all. im running metacity
[02:13] <juano__> corevette: umount /media/something
[02:14] <juano__> corevette: sudo umount /somethingtoumount
[02:14] <Gwanky> Jelloman:Thats a decent point, it would most likely be easeir to configure GRUB than a hacked copy of bootcamp being emulated over MBR.
[02:14] <KillerT> RancidLM: are u sure? make extra sure beryl isn't running on ur config
[02:15] <KillerT> RancidLM: It causes the symptoms u speak of and could be setup via profile
[02:15] <corevette> whats the command for gnome for restarting the menus and stuff
[02:16] <KillerT> netsplit
[02:16] <theherbalizer> okay, another: i want to add the ext3 disk i just formatted to my filesystem, is there a particular name i need to give it's folder in /mount?
[02:16] <Jelloman> please try to find it

[02:16] <jvai> beryl is designed for edgy but not dapper?
[02:16] <Jelloman> bc i need to hide it from my dad only
[02:16] <RancidLM> KillerT:  ya its not running at all.. and i have a feeling if remove .gnome2 my problem will be solved.. but its just lossing all my app settings that will be upsetting
[02:16] <corevette> whats the command for restarting gnome?
[02:16] <KillerT> corevette: ctrl-alt-backspace
[02:16] <corevette> i don't want to lose apps killert
[02:16] <Gwanky> guess what
[02:16] <corevette> killert theres a way to just restart gnome
[02:16] <Gwanky> my car responds to voice commands
[02:16] <Flannel> Jelloman: I'm telling you-- change the 'default' uncomment 'hiddenmenu', that's all you need.
[02:16] <marcusgrazette> hey, i'm trying to use php4-gd2 with apache
[02:16] <marcusgrazette> i've installed it, and installed libapache2-mod-php4
[02:16] <marcusgrazette> but i get an error from the php site saying "Please make sure you PHP compiled with GD2."
[02:16] <Gwanky> and the nav computer responds to SIGKILL
[02:16] <KillerT> jvai: beryl is not designed with ubuntu edgy or dapper in mind
[02:17] <kitche> RancidLM: back up .gnome2 then do cp .gnome2 .gnome2bak
[02:17] <nikitis> Guys i'm still having a no direct rendering problem
[02:17] <jvai> oooh ok, but beryl isnt in the dapper repos @killer1
[02:17] <KillerT> jvai: shouldn't be in edgy either
[02:17] <jvai> ??
[02:17] <bruenig> jvai, beryl is third party repo
[02:17] <KillerT> jvai: unless u changed ur sources.list
[02:18] <mnoir> theherbalizer: the name can be anything but you should make it meaningful - i like /mnt/hdxn where hdxn is the partition but /mnt/movies works too
[02:18] <jvai> beryl from source?
[02:18] <mnoir> theherbalizer: as example
[02:18] <bruenig> jvai, not from source, it is third party though. It is not in any of the ubuntu repos. It is in an independent repo
[02:18] <KillerT> jvai: beryl will work on dappper and edgy and most any other distro with the right configuration
[02:18] <theherbalizer> mnoir: gotcha. what do i need to make the mount point?
[02:19] <jvai> oo i got easy ubuntu on this thing... i dont kno how much it deviated from the orig config
[02:19] <Flannel> theherbalizer: mount points are just folders, so 'mkdir'
[02:19] <theherbalizer> Flannel: oh, so it can still be / ?
[02:19] <theherbalizer> Flannel: not required to be unique
[02:19] <mnoir> theherbalizer: what flannel said.  but /mount is not a standard for mount points
[02:19] <Flannel> theherbalizer: no, It has to be something thta stuff isn't already mounted on.
[02:20] <mnoir> theherbalizer: the standard places would be /mnt or /media
[02:20] <|Shadow|> uhh, i downloaded this ati-driver-installer.run
[02:20] <RancidLM> kitche: ya just gonna try that brb
[02:20] <|Shadow|> and its trying to open it with gedit?
[02:20] <bruenig> |Shadow|, chmod +x it
[02:21] <|Shadow|> bruenig i only just loaded ubuntu im new to the whole thing, chmod +x ?
[02:21] <bruenig> |Shadow|, is it on your desktop?
[02:21] <|Shadow|> yes
[02:21] <theherbalizer> so in fstab it's going to read /dev/sda1  /mnt/movies     instead of /dev/sda1 /
[02:21] <mnoir> the standards for the linux directories is kept at http://www.pathname.com/fhs/
[02:21] <nikitis> omg, i can't figure this out, and i'm about to throw this thing out the damn window.  I uninstalled my nvidia drivers.  fixed my sources.list file.  reinstalled the drivers per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia instructions, rebooted, and the 3D acceleration works, but no Direct Rendering still.  Nvidia logo pops up, it says "nvidia" in xorg.conf file.  The only...
[02:21] <bruenig> |Shadow|, do cd Desktop && chmod +x ati-driver-install.run && sudo ./ati-driver-install.run
[02:21] <nikitis> ...discrepency I can find is that when I do a "glxinfo | grep vendor" it returns "server glx vendor string: SGI" next line " Client glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation" next line "OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation"  Can someone please who knows what to do please, please help me!
[02:21] <mnoir> theherbalizer:  that looks ok
[02:22] <mnoir> theherbalizer: it aint the whole line though
[02:22] <kitche> nikitis: so it saysa direct rendering no?
[02:22] <KillerT> nikitis: didn't u say u r running sis 650?
[02:22] <|Shadow|> hmm, thats odd. when i try and enter the command line my screen messes up
[02:22] <theherbalizer> mnoir: sweet, i'll give it a shot
[02:22] <|Shadow|> (ctl+alt+f2)
[02:22] <nikitis> kitche: yes
[02:22] <theherbalizer> mnoir: yeah, i understand that
[02:22] <bruenig> |Shadow|, just go to applications>accessories>terminal
[02:22] <nikitis> KillerT: i'm running a GeForce Go 6800
[02:22] <mnoir> theherbalizer: just making sure :)
[02:23] <Trixsey> Does root ("sudo") have an own trashcan? Or does it delete instantly?
[02:23] <|Shadow|> ah, thanks :)
[02:23] <KillerT> nikitis: oh ur not that person niki who was here
[02:23] <nikitis> I've been here for 6 hours trying to figure this problem out
[02:23] <kitche> Trixsey: deletes instantly I believe if you do it though the terminal
[02:23] <mnoir> Trixsey: when you are at the commandline, delete is delete
[02:23] <bruenig> Trixsey, sudo rm and rm will delete it instantly either way
[02:23] <nikitis> Something really odd is going on
[02:23] <Trixsey> bruenig, ah ok
[02:23] <nikitis> i've followed about 10 people's directions to fix it and nothing
[02:24] <KillerT> nikitis: so option "dri" = a negative
[02:24] <AnythingJ> I am having a bit of trouble getting my Bekin wireless card to work.  All of the online howto's I have found says this card should work out of the box, and I should just be able see the card in system -> Network Settings... but it is not there... could that be because I did install ubuntu with the wireless card in? I just recently purchesed the card?  I am also using xubuntu... could that be the problem
[02:24] <nikitis> KillerT: yes
[02:24] <cafuego_> nvidia needs glx, not dri or glcore.
[02:24] <Trixsey> KDE4 vs Gnome 3
[02:28] <Trixsey> Which do you think will be coolest?
[02:28] <drx> anyone know how to Ctrl-Alt-Del into a Xen Windows VM?
[02:28] <theherbalizer> okay, so     /dev/sda1/	/mnt/sda1	ext3	      ...and then what?
[02:28] <mnoir> Trixsey: KDE4, just like every kde versus gnome  :)

[02:28] <nikitis> KillerT: i added Load       "
[02:28] <Trixsey> KDE should re-design their panels

[02:28] <Trixsey> if they do it in KDE4 I'll be there in a heartbeat
[02:28] <mnoir> Trixsey: more busier fun here in ubuntu
[02:28] <Trixsey> KDE seems to be working harder on development too
[02:28] <Trixsey> Gnome is like..

[02:29] <wellstevesays> 1024x768 is the highest
[02:30] <mnoir> Trixsey: quanta integrates a debugger, web preview and svn/cvs
[02:30] <bruenig> reverendnathan, any word processor
[02:30] <xtknight> |Jason8|, the one for your architecture in the package format that you prefer

[02:30] <reverendnathan> bruenig: I've been using OOo; anything more specific? Perchance a script of addon to OOo or KOffice?

[02:32] <jkillaz> how can I update firefox to firefox2 with synaptic?
[02:32] <theherbalizer> so now do i need to reboot, or is there a remount all command?
[02:32] <bruenig> jkillaz, you can't
[02:32] <bef> how to "unzip" a .tar.gz
[02:32] <xtknight> firefox2 is in the repositories
[02:33] <frogzoo> waaah - open office writer is fullscreen in gnome and won't give me the tool bar back again
[02:33] <MamanN> wellstevesays: but if you want to reconfigure via dpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:33] <bruenig> bef, tar xf whatever.tar.gz
[02:33] <xtknight> bef, tar xzvf filename.tar.gz, or right click Extract in gui
[02:33] <bruenig> my command is shorter
[02:33] <theherbalizer> lol
[02:33] <xtknight> mine is more verbose
[02:33] <xtknight> and has a Z
[02:33] <theherbalizer> and a v
[02:33] <xtknight> wait a minute now...
[02:33] <mnoir> the z is kinda necessary i think
[02:33] <theherbalizer> alright, lemmie give this a shot, hopefully it works.
[02:33] <xtknight> xf just does .tar :P
[02:33] <bruenig> the z is not necessary
[02:33] <bruenig> try it
[02:34] <kitche> xtknight: with the new tar you don't need z or j
[02:34] <xtknight> im in windows
[02:34] <xtknight> lol

[02:36] <xtknight> Rug, try just presing alt tab..works for me sometimes
[02:36] <bruenig> I bet sudo shutdown -r now would do it but that is probably not what you are looking for

[02:36] <render> hey.. i need help  =x  i tried the live CD and it always stops responding at the splash screen after i chose to start or install
[02:36] <EnsignRedshirt> How do I install an .otf font?  With .ttf, I just copy the file into .fonts.
[02:36] <Flannel> shmeelAway: ubuntu doesn't use the root account, we use sudo.
[02:36] <Flannel> !fonts | EnsignRedshirt
[02:36] <ubotu> EnsignRedshirt: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer

[02:37] <xtknight> render, geforce video card?
[02:37] <render> yes
[02:37] <mnoir> shmeelAway: generally you don't - you use root sparingly, through sudo
[02:37] <render> er
[02:37] <render> yes i verified the cd, no not a geforce card

[02:38] <xtknight> render, like the DOS-like interface or do you see a pretty brown background as if a desktop were coming up?
[02:38] <EnsignRedshirt> Flannel: There is nothing in that page about .otf files.
[02:38] <canine_kouji> oi
[02:38] <xtknight> rexxenexx, you can safely ignore that error
[02:38] <render> black background, ubuntu logo with the words "ubuntu", and the orange bouncing progress bar which has stopped bouncing
[02:38] <canine_kouji> oh wait, you guys wont know, you're all noobs.   I tried the same thing with a .otf file, but abiword (for example) does not show the font.
[02:40] <KillerT> send him to purgatory
[02:40] <mnoir> mebbe we can play pingpong with him

[02:41] <hagabaka> hmm
[02:41] <hagabaka> maybe...
[02:41] <xtknight> s_v_e_n, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:42] <Flannel> EnsignRedshirt: and you restarted abiword, right?
[02:42] <|Shadow|> well, i found this example... http://tonywhitmore.co.uk/blog/2006/02/07/dual-head-on-ati-radeon-9200-se-under-ubuntu/ but every part of it is diffrent to mine
[02:42] <EnsignRedshirt> Flannel: Yes.
[02:42] <|Shadow|> identifier, device, monitor etc is all diffrent
[02:42] <|Shadow|> and i don't have a clue what to set in mine.
[02:42] <drx> "...the superblock is corrupted and you need to run this utility with the --rebuild-sb."  What?
[02:42] <xtknight> |Shadow|, goal = cloned mode with a single video card that has two heads?
[02:42] <KillerT> |Shadow|: No matter where u go u are not going to get a perfect setup to ur own. It is meant as a template for ur own
[02:42] <xtknight> drx, well run the utility like this: asdf --rebuild-sb
[02:42] <hagabaka> i'm writing a word-guessing game, which uses a file with newline-seperated words
[02:43] <KillerT> xtknight: I don't think he is going for clone
[02:43] <|Shadow|> i allready have clone, my card does that in hardware i really want a extended desktop
[02:43] <render> so er, whats the difference to kubuntu and ubuntu? one's based on gnome and one kde, i know, but how does that matter in terms of usability?
[02:43] <Jelloman> how do i edit the boot table
[02:43] <Jelloman> in linux
[02:43] <drx> xtknight, will this hose the Windows 2003 Xen VM Guest I just installed?
[02:43] <Jelloman> to put windows on top
[02:43] <xtknight> |Shadow|, using ati proprietary drivers?
[02:43] <Flannel> !dualhead | |Shadow| read this?
[02:43] <ubotu> |Shadow| read this?: Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama
[02:43] <xtknight> Jelloman, gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:43] <Jelloman> how do i edit it the right way :D
[02:44] <EnsignRedshirt> Flannel: Do you know if a .otf file *should* work?  This is the first one that I've tried to use.  I'll look for some more and see if they work.
[02:44] <|Shadow|> xtknight i downloaded and installed the linux xorg drivers from ati, yes.
[02:44] <|Shadow|> i'll read that page :)
[02:44] <xtknight> Jelloman, you move the 5 or so windows boot instruction lines above the 5 or so linux ones.
[02:44] <xtknight> |Shadow|,read up on the ATI proprietary driver docs
[02:44] <shmeelAway> hey, sry, the thing closed by accident, can i get that command again plz?
[02:44] <Flannel> EnsignRedshirt: I have no idea.  I imagine it should.you migt need libotf
[02:44] <Jelloman> kk
[02:44] <Jelloman> so make windows 5
[02:44] <Jelloman> no
[02:44] <Jelloman> 0
[02:44] <Jelloman> and linux 5
[02:44] <xtknight> shmeelAway, kdesu ?
[02:44] <|Shadow|> i do have to say this isn't a good start for linux vs windows though :/
[02:44] <shmeelAway> mm
[02:44] <Flannel> Jelloman: no no, just change the number.
[02:45] <|Shadow|> taken me 3 hours and i can't even get dual monitors up and going.
[02:45] <Flannel> Jelloman: 'default 0' is the current default, you want 'default 5' or whatever
[02:45] <Jelloman> thats what i said flannel
[02:45] <xtknight> Jelloman, you shouldn't have to change any numbers
[02:45] <Jelloman> ooooh
[02:45] <xtknight> Jelloman, as far as i know :/
[02:45] <s_v_e_n> xtknight, build-esenntial is installed
[02:45] <jackson3246> is there some way I can mute/unmute my microphone with a hotkey in beryl or metacity or .. just gnome in general?

[02:45] <shmeelAway> command not found
[02:45] <xtknight> which one?
[02:45] <shmeelAway> -.-
[02:45] <Flannel> xtknight: 'default'
[02:45] <xtknight> i'm not in linux atm
[02:45] <rexxenexx> when i run the mythfrontend and click watch tv it says "could not connect to the backend server..."
[02:45] <MamanN> shmeelAway: kdesu or gksu (command) eg. gksu gedit
[02:46] <xtknight> ah i guess
[02:46] <killert> xtknight: shame on u
[02:46] <s_v_e_n> eclipse - problem: cant find any header-files from /usr/include
[02:46] <xtknight> s_v_e_n, place /usr/include in PATH so eclipse sees it
[02:46] <shmeelAway> but that's only in the terminal right?
[02:46] <jackson3246> is there some way I can mute/unmute my microphone with a hotkey in beryl or metacity or .. just gnome in general?
[02:46] <Byan> can anyone recommend a good gallery? cgi for site?
[02:46] <xtknight> jackson3246, xmodmap and alsaconf
[02:46] <shmeelAway> can i get root access out of terminal? i'm not the greatest at this script stuff
[02:46] <MamanN> shmeelAway: yes but u can run any grapical from there
[02:46] <Jas-Nix> Byan: gallery
[02:46] <Flannel> shmeelAway: just console - sudo nano /file/path/stuff
[02:46] <pabix> hi all
[02:46] <Jas-Nix> it's php
[02:47] <killert> jackson3246: btw metacity is gnomes wm so saying in metacity or gnome is the same thing
[02:47] <xtknight> jackson3246, well theres an alsa command that sets audio options, something like alsaconf or setalsa or something
[02:47] <Byan> Jas-Nix: eh?
[02:47] <Jas-Nix> Byan: are you looking for something to display pictures ?
[02:47] <Byan> yeah
[02:47] <shmeelAway> like, my mounted windows partition says root only for writing stuff, i wanted to get something from my edgy partition to the windows one
[02:47] <xtknight> shmeelAway, read only you mean?
[02:47] <mnoir> MamanN: why are you not recommending gksudo?
[02:47] <shmeelAway> no, it's read/write
[02:47] <jackson3246> xtkight: is it in the repos or something? it's neither of those, I think
[02:48] <shmeelAway> but i need root permission
[02:48] <MamanN> shmeelAway: if u want to mount ntfs just seti at /etc/fstab
[02:48] <Menisk> I would like to connect my ubuntu laptop to my windows home network but cannot work out how to change the workgroup... Does ubuntu not work with workgroups?
[02:48] <Flannel> !samba | Menisk
[02:48] <ubotu> Menisk: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[02:48] <xtknight> jackson3246, xmodmap is included with Xorg.  im pretty sure you will need to use it somewhere along the way.  and there's an alsa command that saves a sound card configuration and loads it.
[02:48] <shmeelAway> it says "owner: root" folder acess "create and delete files"
[02:48] <MamanN> shmeelAway: run at terminal sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[02:48] <shmeelAway> I have it mounted already
[02:48] <Menisk> Thanks Flannel will have a look.
[02:49] <IntuitiveNipple> shmeelAway: Use "sudo command..." to do things as 'root'
[02:49] <shmeelAway> i can't click and drag i guess lol
[02:49] <IntuitiveNipple> when it asks for a password, its expecting your *user* password
[02:49] <killert> do u realize most questions asked here have been answered in one form or another easily viewable via a search on google?
[02:49] <IntuitiveNipple> shmeelAway: Yes you can, but you need to add a simple script to Gnome to allow you to open directories as root
[02:50] <rexxenexx> Starting MythTV server: mythbackendSession management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed
[02:50] <mnoir> killert: but we are not allowed to say that
[02:50] <kitche> EnsignRedshirt: it seems with .otf you need to install a wrapper for them since they are postscript look here http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/utilities/fontools/
[02:50] <shmeelAway> aha, do u know what that script is intuitivenipple?
[02:50] <killert> mnoir: crap my bad

[02:50] <drx> asdf doesn't work
[02:50] <shmeelAway> alright thanks
[02:50] <Flannel> killert: yes, actually.  Most of them are answered over and over again.  But not all of them.  And google doesn't say "yes, this is YOUR solution"
[02:50] <xtknight> drx, errr i didnt mean it literally.... whatever the command is --rebuild-sb ;P

[02:52] <killert> xtknight: word
[02:52] <EnsignRedshirt> Flannel: I'm still reading that page, but my first impression is that it is about using ttf/otf in Latex.

[02:53] <Menisk> I need a cure for an ubuntu addiction.
[02:53] <xtknight> Menisk, coffee
[02:54] <killert> Menisk: no cure
[02:54] <b1f30> Menisk: install dos

[02:54] <jvai> lol
[02:54] <b1f30> that shite will cure a friggin' hangover
[02:54] <shmeelAway> then my final question is: can i access my external hardrive on my virtual machine?
[02:54] <xtknight> try and install openbsd
[02:54] <killert> yes i mean it is the perfect solution look at the name Disk Operating System
[02:54] <xtknight> you'll hate yourself
[02:54] <Menisk> I installed it this morning as a guest OS in VMware player, have used it many times before.
[02:54] <drx> my superbock is corrupt, so I ran fsck and it says I have to run it manually
[02:54] <render> so any ideas on my non-working ubuntu live CD?
[02:54] <Menisk> Now I can't stop using it.
[02:54] <b1f30> openbsd is nifty
[02:55] <b1f30> so is netbsd
[02:55] <xtknight> oh man the install procedure makes jesus cry
[02:55] <shmeelAway> edgy can see the hard drive, but my vitual machine can't
[02:55] <xtknight> is there a good front-end GUI for making debian packages?
[02:55] <b1f30> $ sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[02:55] <Lahey_> is there linux for the 360 yet?
[02:55] <b1f30> automatic installation failed due to network problems or upstream changes
[02:56] <Flannel> b1f30: you probably want flash9 anyway.
[02:56] <Lahey_> Free60?

[02:57] <rexxenexx> what databases does mythtv need?
[02:57] <IntuitiveNipple> shmeelAway: Once you restart nautilus, you can Right-Click on and directory or file and choose "Scripts > Open As Administrator"
[02:57] <shmeelAway> alright
[02:57] <shmeelAway> will try
[02:58] <rexxenexx> How many MySQL databases does MythTV need? <--more accurate question
[02:58] <EnsignRedshirt> kitche: OK... but are you sure it will show me how to make an otf font usable in abiword or openoffice?  Does it work for you?
[02:58] <lufis> In Gnome's printer config dialog, there are only a few preset DPI print settings. Is there a way to configure it to print at a custom dpi?
[02:59] <IntuitiveNipple> shmeelAway: Hang On!! There's a critical typo!!
[02:59] <kitche> EnsignRedshirt: ah with openoffice it's a bit tricky let me find the page http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Font-FAQ#Are_OTF_fonts_supported_in_OpenOffice.org_2
[02:59] <shmeelAway> Could not save the file /home/nnliu/.gnomes/nautpts/Open As Administrator.
[02:59] <htaccess> hi, how do i mount a usb drive on LTS?

[03:00] <killert> Menisk: lol
[03:00] <IntuitiveNipple> shmeelAway: Yes, it is... here's the corrected instructions: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/3416/
[03:00] <Menisk> htaccess, it should just work
[03:00] <kitche> htaccess: you can type mount to figure out where it's mounted to if your not sure
[03:00] <daishadar> quick scripting question: what's the fastest way to test if a diretory has any subdirectories?
[03:00] <xtknight> home sweet home
[03:00] <IntuitiveNipple> shmeelAway: I typed the wrong directory name for gnome2 :)
[03:00] <Jelloman> ok so what exactly do i set windows too

[03:01] <htaccess> I have nothing mounted with fat in the list
[03:01] <patbam>  heloes
[03:01] <lufis> rexxenexx: does it not say in the documentation?
[03:01] <rexxenexx> I didnt see anything
[03:01] <kitche> htaccess: ok sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /media/<mountpoint> if you have an IDE system
[03:02] <xtknight> anyone here deal with color work (calibrator, etc)?  (i dont really have a specific question, i'd just like to talk about linux and its color support)
[03:02] <rexxenexx> I had to make one because I got dependency errors installing
[03:02] <htaccess> /dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[03:03] <Flannel> xtknight: that'd be #ubuntu-offtopic, if anywhere #ubuntu related, you might lso try ##linux, and Im sure there are better channels than that even
[03:03] <blanky> It's taking me 20 minutes to upload a 40 kb file :'(
[03:03] <kitche> htaccess: ok you must have an SATA system it might be /dev/sdb1 then
[03:03] <drx> my system says "superblock corrupted" and I can't run fsck and I can't shutdown -F, what do I do?  Help!
[03:03] <rexxenexx> in my mythbackend.log there is a line - 2007-01-29 12:21:55.723 Unable to connect to database!

[03:04] <pavan> How can i get telugu fonts?
[03:04] <EnsignRedshirt> kitche: Thanks for that link.  I guess the final answer to my question is "No, you can't just drop a .otf file in ~/.fonts and use it."
[03:04] <lufis> drx: RSEIUB, perhaps?
[03:04] <kitche> htaccess: ... ok see if dmesg says anything when you plug the device in
[03:04] <patbam> pavan: not sure but let's find out together...
[03:04] <patbam> <-- font freak
[03:04] <rexxenexx> could fireburner be blocking mythtv?
[03:05] <patbam> pavan: there are telugu fonts in synaptic
[03:05] <patbam> i think you want ttf-telugu-fonts , not sure what other packages you need
[03:05] <drx> lufix, where is RSEIUB located?
[03:05] <kitche> rexxenexx: firestart shouldn't effect mythtv unless you using a mythtv server
[03:05] <shmeelAway> thanks for the help
[03:05] <shmeelAway> =)
[03:06] <lufis> drx: it's a keyboard command that safely reboots the computer when nothing is responding.
[03:06] <xzk> I'm having a problem with my network manager, it won't connect to my wireless internet but it will connect to my neigbors.. it's never done this before - is there an alternative network managing application that would work?
[03:06] <dapatrick> Is there a script that should be used for enabling init.d services on Ubuntu, similar to chkconfig on RedHat/CentOS?
[03:06] <Epistax> Hey guys. I've seen 3 hours installing nvidia drivers. That part works fine now.. but how do I install OpenGL support into X?
[03:06] <Epistax> specifically, GLX
[03:06] <dapatrick> Or is symlinking the main means of enabling a service?
[03:06] <patbam> pavan: it seems tobe sufficient, http://te.wikipedia.org renders fine for me
[03:07] <blanky> Epistax: it's XGL not GLX (At least I think that's what you mean)
[03:07] <blanky> !xgl | Epistax
[03:07] <ubotu> Epistax: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - Help in #ubuntu-xgl - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[03:07] <lufis> drx: is nothing working at all?
[03:07] <rexxenexx> how about the beckend? I followed the  "MythTV Edgy Backend Frontend Desktop" Wiki
[03:07] <patbam> pavan: actually you probably will want to search synaptic for 'telugu' and install all the telugu support stuff
[03:07] <Epistax> blanky, ubotu, forgive me, but the NVIDIA X Server Settings calls it GLX
[03:07] <rexxenexx> only the backend is having probs
[03:07] <drx> lufis, I can boot and login as root
[03:08] <lufis> drx: ah

[03:16] <drx> lucis, it also says that fsck failed but it's on a volume that shouldn't affect Linux (it's on a Windows VM LVM volme)
[03:16] <cablesm102> Epistax, Epistax, under Driver (in the device section) does it say nvidia?
[03:17] <IntuitiveNipple> Akuma_: They are set in your .bash_profile
[03:17] <Epistax> cablesm102: Yes, I made that alteration myself.  When I restart the gdm, I see the nvidia splash screen
[03:17] <cablesm102> Epstax, sorry... don't know what the problem is.

[03:19] <Gwanky> PPC?
[03:19] <pierrelourens> intel
[03:19] <Gwanky> or x86?

[03:20] <pwk> drx, please chck pm
[03:20] <Gwanky> Bootstrap
[03:20] <cablesm102> Gwanky, sry... looking at wrong message
[03:20] <IntuitiveNipple> pierrelourens: which operating system is hosting the external drive?
[03:20] <Gwanky> not grub
[03:20] <Gwanky> use bootcamp
[03:20] <Gwanky> it works for dualbooting Windows XP Os X and prolly linux
[03:20] <Epistax> Ok if glx is failing on load, how do I tell? There is nothing in var log messages
[03:20] <pierrelourens> IntuitiveNipple: I haven't bought it yet, but I'm going to buy it for use w/ Time Machine -- and leave some space for Ubuntu
[03:20] <Gwanky> So can someone help my set up Xserver
[03:21] <gabriela> hi
[03:21] <gabriela> is there a keys combinations to block the screen?
[03:21] <Gwanky> Can someone help me with Xserver
[03:21] <IntuitiveNipple> pierrelourens: so you want to use it to dual-boot different operating systems? Or is it you just want to share files from it to different PCs ?
[03:21] <cablesm102> gabriela, you can set one in System>Preferences>Keyboard Shortcuts
[03:22] <gabriela> iGwanky:  had problems whit xserver
[03:22] <pierrelourens> IntuitiveNipple: my internal drive will boot Mac OS X, and the drive will have back up files (photos, music, etc)
[03:22] <gabriela> Guanky: i had problems with xserver too
[03:22] <Tonren> How do I kill an XServer from the command line?
[03:22] <gabriela> cablsesm102 thanks  i will check that
[03:22] <Gwanky> Gabriela:I install ubuntu and xserver fails
[03:22] <IntuitiveNipple> pierrelourens: ok, thats what I thought but I wasn't sure - so basically you want to share it across the network?
[03:22] <drx> pwk, how?
[03:22] <wil__> Tonren: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop     or start or restart
[03:23] <juano__> !nvidia
[03:23] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[03:23] <hyarion_> I recently installed Edgy and everything seems to freeze a couple times a day, everything but the mouse just freezes, any ideas?
[03:23] <IntuitiveNipple> pierrelourens: I think you could use NFS or Samba. Samba is probably easier to manage overall
[03:23] <pwk> so u had vista installed first?
[03:23] <gabriela> maybe is your graphic card
[03:23] <gabriela> what is your graphic card?
