[12:03] <RkyRaccoon> cheesymonkey, i re-installed and it started fine, but as allways it started not booting
[12:03] <Littlegator> gnontghol what was the command to format a device? >_>
[12:03] <pharsmoth> anyone know why i would be getting a command not found error when im attempting to restart/start my samba server (samba is in stalled as best i can tell)
[12:03] <RkyRaccoon> cheesymonkey, im getting kinda sick of this
[12:03] <aaron> sixdraw: that should be fine. but use the 32bit edition of ubuntu
[12:03] <ferret_0567> How do I get xchat-gnome to automagically IDENTIFY me to NickServ?
[12:03] <thebigham> Thanks MattJ
[12:03] <thebigham> today is my first day of using ubuntu
[12:03] <sixdraw> does ubuntu not support the 64 bit or is it just easier with drivers etc and wine to use 32 bit?
[12:03] <BashBang> Ia2 : try   glxinfo | grep -in yes    will let you know if you have 3d accel enabled
[12:04] <MattJ> thebigham, congratulations :)
[12:04] <ichahi> beryl<3
[12:04] <thebigham> thanks =)
[12:04] <CheesyMonkey> sixdraw, easier with 32bit really
[12:04] <MajorPayne> If I chmod 750 /etc/skel/ will home directorys created after that have 750 permissions?
[12:04] <ferret_0567> sixdraw: Ubuntu supports 64-bit, but 32-bit is a lot easier to use for newbies
[12:04] <sixdraw> because i have a 64 bit amd allready and use the 32 bit version for that reason but i'd like to use the full functionality
[12:04] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, its still there
[12:04] <ferret_0567> It's a bit hard to get 32-bit programs to work
[12:04] <sixdraw> right thanks a lot
[12:04] <ferret_0567> you can do it, but it's hard
[12:05] <ferret_0567> I'm using 64-bit right now
[12:05] <CheesyMonkey> RkyRaccoon, Ummm its a weird problem
[12:05] <aaron> 32bit all the way.
[12:05] <Jordan_U> sixdraw, It's only with proprietary apps that you have a problem
[12:05] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : and you #commented out #load dri  #load glx  like that?
[12:05] <RkyRaccoon> cheesymonkey, would switching to kubuntu work?
[12:05] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, no i deleted them
[12:05] <Littlegator> gnontghol what was the command to format a device? >_>
[12:05] <sixdraw> and just one other thing, is there a noticeable advantage in using 64 bit over 32 apart from those issues?
[12:06] <hobbs_> how do I embed a web page in the desktop?  like active desktop in wndows
[12:06] <CheesyMonkey> RkyRaccoon, I really doubt it, end of the day its the same OS just a different DE
[12:06] <MajorPayne> RkyRaccoon: Kubuntu still uses X.
[12:06] <ferret_0567> why is hdparm not being run as part of the system startup scripts anymore?
[12:06] <dez> hey all
[12:06] <ferret_0567> I need it
[12:06] <CheesyMonkey> RkyRaccoon, Have you ever tried any other distros that worked?
[12:06] <pharsmoth> hey dez
[12:06] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : did you save the file like that?  Make sure they aren't back
[12:06] <dez> whats a good bootl loader for dual booting ubuntu?
[12:06] <ferret_0567> The Linux kernel automatically disables DMA and other advanced hard drive features automatically
[12:06] <CheesyMonkey> dez, the defaukt GRUB :)
[12:06] <RkyRaccoon> cheesymonkey, no this is my first shot at linux.  It works great on my laptop
[12:06] <sixdraw> i read its only in applications using complicated algorithims etc. and very large files that its benifical to use 64 bit
[12:07] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, yea, i checked they saved
[12:07] <sixdraw> or something along those lines
[12:07] <dez> well the grub just auto maticly loads ubuntu
[12:07] <dez> it doesnt give me the option to load xp
[12:07] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : what exactly does the EE message say
[12:07] <dez> :(
[12:07] <CheesyMonkey> dez, I think, from experience of dualbooting on fedora however, you go into the menu by pressing any key i think then choose Other
[12:07] <hobbs_> dez you want to dual boot with windows?
[12:08] <x89x> do via deltachrome people hae to choose vesa drivers ?
[12:08] <dez> yes hobbs
[12:08] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, "(EE) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable"
[12:08] <timewriter> hmm
[12:08] <ferret_0567> that is due to some errors, but I know that if I enable DMA, unmaskirq, and IO_Support = 32-bit with sync (mode 3) later, the system still functions fine
[12:08] <Biteyni> Does anybody know how to mount an external HD into Ubuntu?
[12:08] <hobbs_> dez you  installed windows first?
[12:08] <CheesyMonkey> RkyRaccoon, And you deleted that Load "DRI"?
[12:08] <ferret_0567> how do I get hdparm to run automatically on bootup
[12:08] <sixdraw> if there's any developers here by the way that have contributed to the development of the latest ubuntu, what a great job ye did.. ive converted a lot of friends lately i tell you
[12:08] <ferret_0567> ?
[12:08] <RkyRaccoon> cheesymonkey, yea
[12:08] <dez> well i got two hard drives and i installed ubuntu onthe small one and xp on the big one
[12:08] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : what type of grafics card do you have?
[12:09] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, ati radeon x1950pro
[12:09] <hobbs_> dez in what order?
[12:09] <dez> uh
[12:09] <dez> ubuntu first i think
[12:09] <ferret_0567> dez: you need to install Windows first
[12:09] <Ia2> MattJ, Thanks that fixed my problem!
[12:09] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : and what driver is it using in xorg.conf?
[12:09] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, fglrx
[12:09] <dez> but i didnt have the big hard drive pluged in
[12:09] <hobbs_> dez did you have the windows one installed when you installed ubuntu?
[12:09] <Biteyni> wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb1,
[12:09] <Biteyni>        missing codepage or other error
[12:09] <Biteyni>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[12:09] <Biteyni>        dmesg | tail  or so
[12:09] <x89x> via deltachrome driverss !!
[12:09] <Biteyni> anybody know what i can do?
[12:10] <MattJ> Ia2, great!
[12:10] <hobbs_> dez you need to re-configure grub then
[12:10] <Biteyni> external HD
[12:10] <Biteyni> ?
[12:10] <dez> oh
[12:10] <dez> ok
[12:10] <x89x> its intalling vesa drivers !!
[12:10] <hobbs_> dez with the big one plugged in, but seccond in the boot order
[12:10] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : if you aren't going to use any 3d you could just use the xfree 2d driver
[12:10] <ferret_0567> Biteyni: please, use the pastebin for anything bigger than 4 lines
[12:10] <MattJ> Ia2, hopefully it won't be necessary when ATI fix the problem
[12:10] <ferret_0567> !pastebin > Biteyni
[12:10] <dez> ok
[12:10] <Biteyni> ferret_0567: do you know what i can do to fix this?
[12:10] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, do i replace "fglrx" with "xfree"?
[12:11] <Ia2> Hope so!
[12:11] <ferret_0567> what did you do to get that error Biteyni?
[12:11] <timewriter> anyone can help me configure penggy ?
[12:11] <acke_> i liked GPROFTPD, a pretty nice ftp server. for us n00bs.. .>D
[12:11] <NixMan> can someone test one of my tutorials to see if it is easy to follow? message me if you are interested
[12:11] <timewriter> ill check goole
[12:11] <timewriter> google
[12:11] <velko> Biteyni, somtimes a simple fsck on the external hard drive partition helps here
[12:11] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : no, different name, I have to check what it is,  hang one sec
[12:11] <dez> brb
[12:11] <Biteyni> how to do that velkO?>
[12:11] <RkyRaccoon> bashbang, if its vesa ive tried it many times
[12:12] <Jordan_U> NixMan, Are you writing them on the official wiki?
[12:12] <Littlegator> I tried doing mkfs -t ext3 /dev/hda4 but it freezes at inode 29
[12:12] <ferret_0567> can I just add "exec /etc/init.d/hdparm to /etc/rc.local to get hdparm to run at boot up time????
[12:12] <Ia2> MattJ, do you by any chance know why I would not be able to set permissions on my Hard Drives?
[12:12] <NixMan> Jordan_U: no, on my personal blog, is that frowned upon?
[12:12] <Biteyni> velko: How do i do fsck?
[12:12] <Jordan_U> NixMan, It is by me, and IMHO should be by more people.
[12:12] <ferret_0567> ...
[12:12] <MattJ> Ia2, which hard drives? and what file system are they?
[12:12] <velko> Biteyni, say your external hard drive is called /dev/hdb and has only one partition (called /dev/hdb1) formatted with ext3. you type "sudo fsck.ext3 /dev/hdb1"
[12:13] <ferret_0567> this channel is WAY too crowded
[12:13] <Dimz> hi. i was using windows and my pc turned off unexpectedly and now when i log into ubuntu my ntfs files partition doesnt mount anymore. can any1 help??
[12:13] <IdleOne> !automount
[12:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about automount - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:13] <Biteyni> /dev/sbd1
[12:13] <velko> Biteyni, adapt this example to your actual configuration. you have to know the device name for the hdd and the partition scheme and partition types
[12:13] <IdleOne> !mount
[12:13] <NixMan> Jordan_U: ok, well imho it is ok, but hey what does mho matter? could you test it for me?

[12:13] <cafuego> Dimz: Boot windows and have it do its disk check, then boot Ubuntu.
[12:13] <CheesyMonkey> RkyRaccoon, do you have fglrx set as driver?
[12:13] <ferret_0567> Dimz: you need to run ntfs-fix on that NTFS partition
[12:13] <Skrypt> Can someone help me? It's a sound issue. Onboard nvidia sound on 32bit Ubuntu w/ Feisty. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3030313#post3030313
 how do i do that?
[12:14] <BashBang> RkyRaccoon : you can try    ati    or   radeon  for driver names  not sure wich will work with your card the best
[12:14] <Ia2> MattJ, External drive
[12:14] <Mhz> hi all, I uninstalled wine using Synaptic and when I run "which wine" in a prompt it still finds something in /usr/local/bin. I guess I must have installed it at some point in time using make, now how can I uninstall it?
[12:14] <ferret_0567> what was your NTFS partition called?
 Files
[12:15] <Jordan_U> RkyRaccoon, I think that "ati" chooses the correct driver for your card but I may be wrong
[12:15] <MattJ> Ia2, ah, external drives are often formatted FAT32, which doesn't support permissions
[12:15] <Wizek> Do someone know what is GRUB ERROR 21, while booting?
[12:15] <ferret_0567> um...what does the error say when you double click on it Dimz?
[12:15] <Ia2> actually it's ntfs
[12:15] <astro76> Mhz, it must actually still be there, which simply searches the path when you run it
[12:15] <ferret_0567> does it say something about "Cannot mount /dev/hdc"?
[12:15] <ferret_0567> what does it say?
[12:15] <Jordan_U> Ia2, That doesn't support UNIX permissions either
[12:15] <NixMan>  Jordan_U: ok, well imho it is ok, but hey what does mho matter?
[12:15] <NixMan>                 could you test it for me?
[12:15] <Dimz> basicly i was workin in windows n my electricity went. i turned the pc back on and into ubuntu n my partition isnt on the desktop anymore.
[12:16] <Jordan_U> NixMan, Sure
[12:16] <capashen> #ubuntu-fr-testing
[12:16] <capashen> oups sorry
[12:16] <NixMan> Jordan_U: thank you, and i may look into the wiki very soon  Jordan_U: ok, well imho it is ok, but hey what does mho matter?  could you test it for me?
[12:16] <astro76> Mhz, you can see if the package you compiled has a make uninstall
[12:16] <r0dzilla> trying to get bluetooth up and running on ubuntu
[12:16] <NixMan>  Jordan_U: ok, well imho it is ok, but hey what does mho matter?
[12:16] <NixMan>                 could you test it for me?
[12:16] <Mhz> astro76: that's what I figured out. I have trouble with wine and I want to reinstall it fresh, however I don't know how to clean up the mess!
[12:16] <r0dzilla> what pin number does ubuntu use for pairing?
[12:16] <Ia2> MattJ, so shall I format using what system?
[12:16] <astro76> Mhz, you should use checkinstall when you need to build software
[12:16] <NixMan> Jordan_U: http://techystuff.info/?p=64
[12:16] <getBoa> hi y'all....      how to upgrade the feisty fawn to the Gutsy Gibbon ???
[12:16] <Mhz> astro76: I'm not sure I still have the package from which I installed
[12:17] <r0dzilla> previous distro I used would show a bluetooth logo on the notification area and ask for a pin number to use
[12:17] <mwe> Wizek: it usually means menu.lst is wrong, referencing an incorrect drive I think
[12:17] <astro76> Mhz, well, if you installed under /usr/local/bin, and you haven't installed anything else, only wine stuff will be under /usr/local
[12:17] <bad_cables> so, if you use ubuntu then you can just download most apps as a .deb file to your desktop and install them?
[12:17] <r0dzilla> I followed all the steps in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup but my phone is asking for a pin number to finish pairing
[12:18] <bad_cables> like in DSL and Debian regular
[12:18] <RkyRaccoon> cheesymonkey yes
[12:18] <MattJ> Ia2, ext3 is what Linux/Ubuntu use, and supports all the features
[12:18] <Littlegator> How do I completely delete a partition?
[12:18] <rockets> MattJ, well not really. you can use a bunch of other things like reiserfs
[12:18] <astro76> r0dzilla, try 0000, 1234, ...
[12:18] <bad_cables> with a speaker magnet
[12:18] <rockets> matti, and i think XFS
[12:18] <r0dzilla> astro76, yeah tried a few of those already
[12:19] <CheesyMonkey> RkyRaccoon, One minute Im reading a few things about people who have had the same error :)
[12:19] <IdleOne> Littlegator, use dd man dd for info
[12:19] <Biteyni> e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
[12:19] <Biteyni>  So i tried doing that but the thing didn't give me permission
[12:19] <Biteyni> what to do know
[12:19] <MattJ> rockets, Ia2 just wants to format his drive, and ext3 is perfectly adequate :)
[12:19] <Biteyni> it says to be in root?
[12:19] <bad_cables> Littlegator: there are 2 options, 1... speaker magnet and 2... use qtparted to do it with a nice GUI
[12:19] <Jordan_U> NixMan, That is already covered on the wiki @ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ThunderbirdNewVersion
[12:19] <RkyRaccoon> cheesymonkey, Im not alone?!
[12:19] <Wizek> nwe, could u check it 4 me? :) i'm a new user, and ui just installed ubuntu tu a formated hd, how can the file be wrong?
[12:19] <IdleOne> Littlegator, yeah use gparted or qtparted
[12:19] <Cogito> hi all
[12:20] <bad_cables> Littlegator: ever use partition majik?
[12:20] <CheesyMonkey> RkyRaccoon, Are you heck
[12:20] <NixMan> Jordan_U: ok, but some of my subscriers may not know that. however, i see your point, the wiki helps keep all the info in one place. however, i guess my point is generating trafic.
[12:20] <velko> bad_cables, well - yes. ubuntu like dsl is derived from debian proper. but instead of downloading deb files to your desktop and installing them is better to use a package manager like synaptic or aptitude
[12:20] <CheesyMonkey> !paste > CheesyMonkey
[12:20] <MattJ> Ia2, gparted should be able to show you the drive, and let you reformat it
[12:20] <RkyRaccoon> cheesymonkey, heck?
[12:20] <Cogito>  someone help me!
[12:20] <Ia2> MattJ, Thank you I'll try that.
[12:20] <bad_cables> Littlegator, qtparted is a really nice app to configure disk partions and format them
[12:20] <Littlegator> Okay, let me rephrase my question. When using Gparted or even a terminal command to delete a partition, it fails and ends up temporarily resetting my partition tables.
[12:21] <bad_cables> for linux
[12:21] <Jordan_U> NixMan, My point is that generating traffic at the cost of not helping your users is wrong
[12:21] <IdleOne> Cogito, with?

[12:23] <Cogito> thank you
[12:23] <Jordan_U> NixMan, Do what you want, but by keeping your users from the official documentation you will be hindering them and you can't possibly keep all of your instructions up to date like the wiki can

[12:27] <CheesyMonkey> gavintlgold, I did already, jiffajaffa look i even commented it :O
[12:27] <bad_cables> bagualas: you need 3 copper wires, and some RCA jacks to do it with a soldering iron, but you can cause phazing if you are not careful...
[12:27] <gavintlgold> kewl
[12:27] <bad_cables> bagualas: try and find a plugin for XMMS to output to MONO
[12:27] <EmxBA> hi, may someone help me? I have a serious hardware issue
[12:27] <CheesyMonkey> gavintlgold, As a suggestion, why not do a video, in the highest quality you can showing off all its features?
[12:28] <cracker> my kernel is 2.6.20-16-*  i need to update it to *-17 so that i can use fwcutter.. pls tell me how
[12:28] <bad_cables> bagualas: if not, try a diskwriter and convert it to mono in Audacity
[12:28] <bagualas> bad_cables, all my cables are mono. I need the output to be mono. So, will not solde :D
[12:28] <Jordan_U> EmxBA, Ask your question and if someone can help they will
[12:28] <Cairna> How do I turn off X Server so that I may install my nvidia driver  on dapper?
[12:28] <CheesyMonkey> gavintlgold, Showing people its the way forward and beryl no longer supported etc =D
[12:28] <gavintlgold> cheezymonkey: i made a low quality video with all features (on digg recently) but maybe I can do another

[12:29] <suqzi> hey guys, here's my question: where should I find info for getting my laptop to see my external hard drive?
[12:29] <Wizek> mwe, are u here?
[12:29] <EmxBA> I have nvidia 6150 integrated card. It was working OK until 2 hours ago. I just couldn't boot my pc, and then I've got message that overlocking (which I haven't done) has failed. settings in bios have been reverted to default. and then, it boots sometimes, sometimes not. windows xp safe mode is ok, ubuntu recovery mode is ok, but when I started ubuntu as usually or windows
[12:29] <Jordan_U> cracker, Why do you need to upate to use fwcutter and why can't you just apt-get upgrade?
[12:29] <Cairna> Suqzi, generally on startup you press an F# key to start up Bootmenu
[12:29] <EmxBA> I didn't work, Jordan_U
[12:29] <Biteyni> < needs help with external hard drive error
[12:29] <Cairna> It should say early on startup
[12:29] <EmxBA> Jordan_U: the things is, screen flickrs, blinks
[12:29] <bad_cables> bagualas: are you using a patch bay?
[12:30] <Littlegator> How do I fix this error? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30167/
[12:30] <EmxBA> colours are mixed and it seems like a GPU issue
[12:30] <cracker> jordan: cuz i was trying to use bcm43xx-fmcutter for my 1390 broadcom card
[12:30] <EmxBA> but how come safe mode works?
[12:30] <bagualas> sry, didnt understand what is patch bay ;\
[12:30] <suqzi> Cairna, what should I look for in bootmenu?
[12:30] <EmxBA> do I need to buy a new GPU? is the problem laying there?
[12:30] <Jordan_U> cracker, But that shouldn't require a specific kernel
[12:30] <fiXXXerMet> /dev/sdd1 on /media/Sansa e260R type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,shortname=mixed,uid=1000,utf8,umask=077)      Shouldn't I be able to write to that?
[12:30] <Taffy-nay> hey everyone, new ubuntu user with a sound issue here. anyone available to help?

[12:32] <EmxBA> Jordan_U: my whole pc worked 2 hrs ago, that's weird
[12:32] <Jordan_U> EmxBA, Then it is probably a GPU problem, if you have openssh server installed you can check that everything else is working without needing a monitor
[12:33] <vavaproductions> hi every1
[12:33] <EmxBA> Jordan_U: I have it installed. so that would clarify that the problem is in gpu?
[12:33] <vavaproductions> waz up

[12:36] <CheesyMonkey> gavintlgold, I wouldnt class you as that, not for posting it twice, so long as its under the relevant section :)
[12:37] <ryanakca> hmm.. are there any advantages at running amd64 over i386? (I know about some of the proprietary software not running, I can just set up a chroot for that.)
[12:37] <Wizek> mwe, are u here?
[12:37] <cracker> jordan: i have fiesty trying to use fwcutter
[12:37] <Jordan_U> cracker, You should be using 2.6.20 then, what does uname -r output?
[12:37] <Skrypt> EmxBa, cool? i'm asking every 5 minutes. In a room this busy, I think that's fair.
[12:37] <kitche> ryanakca: not really since many programs aren't programmed for amd64 yet
[12:37] <ryanakca> kitche: ok
[12:37] <cracker> jordan:it shows 2.6.20-16-generic
[12:38] <ryanakca> kitche: thanks :)
[12:38] <EmxBA> Skrypt: well...
[12:38] <Greyscale> Why does my machine keep locking up diskthashing?

[12:38] <Littlegator> bashbang: yes I am
[12:38] <Greyscale> it just sits there
[12:38] <Greyscale> and thashe
[12:38] <Greyscale> the the point I can't move the cursor
[12:38] <SlimeyPete> Greyscale: how much memory do you have?
[12:38] <Greyscale> 512M
[12:38] <Greyscale> this is with it idling too
[12:39] <SlimeyPete> hmm, should be plenty.
[12:39] <ThanatosDrive> Goodness! I think Ubuntu is trying to double my speakers as subwoofers.
[12:39] <cracker> jordan:it shows 2.6.20-16-generic
[12:39] <Greyscale> just browsin' the net for an hour or so makes it go thrash
[12:39] <ThanatosDrive> How can I stop it from doing that?
[12:39] <Jordan_U> cracker, Then you have 2.6.20 ( which is greater than 2.6.17, the last number doesn't matter )
[12:39] <Greyscale> I'm removing slocate, maybe that's what its doing
[12:39] <Greyscale> ThanatosDrive, thats usually due to them being plugged into the wrong socket :P
[12:39] <Taffy-nay> i have ubuntu running my laptop and when i plug in speakers or headphone, i get sound through both the plugged in device AND the onboard speakers
[12:39] <BashBang> Littlegator you could try using    mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda4
[12:39] <cracker> jordan:so what shud i do now i have the fwcutter and i hjave a .exe driver
[12:39] <Greyscale> why in gods name is slocate installed by default?
[12:40] <cracker> jordan:so what shud i do now i have the fwcutter and i hjave a .exe driver
[12:40] <Greyscale> cracker, are you trying to install the bcm43xx drivers?
[12:40] <ThanatosDrive> Greyscale: No, the colors match, and there's even an 'Audio Out' tag next to the aqua-colored plug.
[12:40] <cracker> yes
[12:40] <Jordan_U> cracker, No need for the exe driver, just install bcm43xx-fwcutter
[12:40] <Greyscale> Stereo sound is green, usually
[12:40] <Greyscale> blue for rear speakers
[12:40] <Greyscale> pink for mic/sub
[12:41] <Jordan_U> cracker, It will automatically download the firmware you need
[12:41] <cracker> yes i did that then.. the wifi LED still is showing that it is not working
[12:41] <unagi> anyone know if its possible to sit desktop icons on the right side instead of the left?
[12:41] <Greyscale> I have a bcm43xx... tell me if you get stuck ^_^
[12:41] <ThanatosDrive> Geryscale: I don't have a subwoofer either. But somehow it's like Bass Boost is on.

[12:45] <bad_cables> is it? who can notice... the 10% of elites in this room? i shouldnt care about them since i have nothing to hide on this server and besides, maybee a hacker or 23 on my system might set up an IRC server and do something constructive and maybee even protecty my system

[12:49] <Taffy-nay> oh well, i guess i was being a bit pushy, it's not an urgent issue anyhow, i'll pop my question in the forums and wait
[12:49] <Taffy-nay> i have ubuntu running my laptop and when i plug in speakers or headphone, i get sound through both the plugged in device AND the onboard speakers
[12:50] <Jordan_U> dsnyders, ssh in and run "shutdown -h now" as root, how to trigger that to happen I don't know
[12:50] <Dangerous> hello dirty scum bag mother fuckers
[12:50] <Wizek> BashBang, why do u think it will be sucesful, if it wasn't before?
[12:50] <bruenig> Taffy-nay, yeah that is a bit more of an advanced and very case specific issue. This channel would be better for more generalized questions such as "how do i configure such and such app" "how do I install such and such"
[12:51] <Jordan_U> !ohmy | Dangerous
[12:51] <Falstius> Taffy-nay: are you using the snd-intel8x0 module?  You can check in the terminal with lsmod | grep snd-intel8x0
[12:51] <ubotu> Dangerous: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:51] <BashBang> Wizek : the five
[12:51] <dsnyders> Jordan_U, The shutdown is automatic on the machine that monitors the UPS, but I have others on the same UPS that also need to be shut down automatically.
[12:51] <blizzow> !ohmy | Dangerous
[12:51] <cwgannon> so, say i'm on the desktop in ubuntu, what's the keyboard shortcut to bring up the dialog to restart/shut down/log off

[12:52] <Jordan_U> Cairna, How are you trying to install the drivers?
[12:52] <Falstius> Taffy-nay: okay.  I know of one issue with that module which causes strange effects.  It is definitely a soundcard and module specific problem.  Make sure to include that information when you post to the form.
[12:52] <etank> i used gnome-pilot to sync it but i dont know what to use to view the stuff that was synced
[12:53] <Wizek> BashBang, and the last, i used "alternate" cd, but the same error
[12:53] <Taffy-nay> thanks, i'll make sure I do
[12:53] <Cairna> Jordan_U: I downloaded it off the nvidia site, ran it through terminal. It has a sort of GUI interface, and tells me to shut off X Server
[12:54] <Jordan_U> Cairna, For future reference it is generally better to use the ( albeit older ) drivers from the repositories, to restart X press ctrl+alt+backspace
[12:54] <liorkamer> i install aMSN and he want TLS MODELS where i get it ?

[12:54] <cwgannon> so, say i'm on the desktop in ubuntu, what's the keyboard shortcut to bring up the dialog to restart/shut down/log off? (thanks in advance)
[12:54] <Dangerous> children kjahflers fack
[12:54] <Azzkikr> i don't think there's a default keyboard shortcut
[12:55] <cwgannon> oye!  what does one use then?
[12:55] <cwgannon> the mouse!?!?
[12:55] <Azzkikr> er, yeah? :)
[12:55] <cwgannon> oh geez
[12:55] <bruenig> cwgannon, or you can figure out what the command is and shortcut that command using xbindkeys (sudo apt-get install xbindkeys)
[12:55] <Jordan_U> dsnyders, You could just make a script that whenever it is told by the UPS to shut down it first ssh's into the other boxes and shuts them down
[12:55] <cwgannon> thanks both of you!
[12:55] <mcrawfor> is there any ubuntu utility that could notify me of updates to ubuntu servers I maintain?
[12:56] <liorkamer> i install aMSN and he want TLS MODELS where i get it ?
[12:56] <bad_cables> cwgannon: shutdown -r -h -n now
[12:56] <mcrawfor> or should I write some custom cron job?
[12:56] <unagi_> sigh i guess hibernation will never get fixed =*(
[12:56] <chipito-br> hello can somebody help me with internet access??? after formatting my pc (hd upgrade) and installing 7.04 (which i used before) internet stopped working... can somebody help me? thanks
[12:56] <bruenig> mcrawfor, all of your servers should have the same updates at the same time right?
[12:56] <Skrypt> Can someone help me? It's a sound issue. Onboard nf3 sound on 32bit Ubuntu w/ Feisty. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3030313#post3030313
[12:56] <FusE> Does anyone know if a ADMtek card is supported by Feisty, IT worked for me on dapper kernel, but when I upgraded to edgy, I wasnt able to connect wirelessly without turning off network security
[12:56] <unagi_> chipito-br: what do you mean it stopped working
[12:56] <Jkessler> does anyone know of a good ubuntu terminal program for connecting to a switch via com port?
[12:56] <mcrawfor> bruenig: not necessarily, they all have different packages installed
[12:57] <bruenig> mcrawfor, what do you mean notify?
[12:57] <liorkamer> i install aMSN and he want TLS MODULE  where i can get it ?
[12:57] <mcrawfor> an email would be fine
[12:57] <chipito-br> unagi_: dont know... lan works perfectly, but i don't have internet access no matter if i put manual ip config or dhcp
[12:57] <mcrawfor> i've just written cronjobs on debian systems to simulate an upgrade and send me the output...
[12:57] <sm5por> Jkessler: Maybe minicom does the trick? I don't know your environment.
[12:57] <mcrawfor> but it seems like there could be a more elegant solution
[12:57] <unagi_> is this on a laptop or desktop
[12:58] <bruenig> mcrawfor, yeah you are going to have to put a script together, I wrote one a while back that would list all upgrades so that I could put it in conky, apt-get --simulate upgrade is a good place to start then some grepping and awking and seding and whatnot
[12:58] <chipito-br> desktop
[12:58] <mcrawfor> hm
[12:58] <mcrawfor> they put so much time into the UI-laden, desktop-friendly update-notifier, I wondered if there wasn't something slick for sysadmins
[12:58] <mcrawfor> okay
[12:58] <Wizek> BashBang, i have both, 1 ide and 1 sata, i tried install it to ide, and formated it to ext3
[12:59] <BashBang> Wizek : k, are you happy with how the disk is partitioned?
[01:00] <Ayarcy> I'm working on preseed files for a custom Ubuntu install CD.  I can find example preseed files but no actual official documentation of what variables d-i can use or what format they should be in.  Where can I find the official specs?  (Specifically, right now I'm looking at pkgsel/install-pattern, but this issue isn't limited to that variable.)
[01:00] <cwgannon> is there a keyboard shortcut to open a terminal, and if not, what's the best way for me to set one up?  (thanks in advance)
[01:00] <bad_cables> Skrypt: i hate to tell you this, but sound is a black art. it may be that your soundcard is new, in that case i would try several "Live CD" distros untill you find one that can sing... then you can investigate which linux driver and how they set it up
[01:01] <Skrypt> Bah.
[01:01] <Skrypt> :(
[01:01] <chipito-br> hello can somebody help me with internet access??? after formatting my pc (hd upgrade) and installing 7.04 (which i used before) internet stopped working... can somebody help me? thanks
[01:01] <bad_cables> Skrypt, that mobo looks too new for me to even help you
[01:01] <BashBang> Wizek : your willing to loose everything on the ide drive? you don't have any windows partitions or anything you wanna keep do you?
[01:01] <Skrypt> it's a year old.
[01:01] <Ek0nomik> does anyone know how to fix the bug with Ubuntu server edition; on boot it hangs on "Running local boot scripts", and you have to hit enter to get to the logon prompt.
[01:01] <Skrypt> MSI K8Neo
[01:01] <Skrypt> Maybe older.
[01:01] <bad_cables> a year is really new to me
[01:02] <jvai> any1 uses atuoscan for debian? it's a network tool (GUI)

[01:02] <Wizek> BashBang, windows is at other hd, i can plug it off, if it's nesesery
[01:02] <bad_cables> Skrypt, dont underestimate the power of the live disk... try several knoppixes and several others too

[01:03] <ch40s> using gnome exchat
[01:03] <radioman> not gnome
[01:03] <PriceChild> ch40s, use xchat instead of xchat-gnome then
[01:04] <ch40s> oh ok
[01:04] <BashBang> Wizek : no that's ok, if you wanna reformat the drive just type into the console     mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda4     that's it, should reformat then you can reinstall on that drive
[01:04] <ch40s> ty
[01:04] <JC_Denton_> (Mono) are there any good tools for reading output from a usb device acting as a Humande Interface Device? I tried sharpUSBLib but like everyone else im have problems with read() not returning anything

[01:04] <Dangerous> your a dakiuleesh
[01:04] <Cairna> Jordan_U, ya there perchance?
[01:04] <PriceChild> liorkamer, install amsn from the repositories instead of compiling it yourself.
[01:05] <bercebu> hi
[01:05] <Dangerous> you scasi bagijo peacha geminias
[01:05] <Wizek> it won't do anything to my windows? there is iportant files...
[01:05] <Jordan_U> Cairna, yeah
[01:05] <PriceChild> Dangerous, english only.
[01:05] <james> Ok, sorry to bother anyone. Not used Linux in ages. What's the comand to make a file executable in terminol?
[01:05] <BashBang> Wizek : oops made a mistake;   should be      mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda    not /dev/hda4    sry.
[01:05] <Geminia1> dangerous, ealif kaootosh
[01:05] <PriceChild> james, chmod +x file
[01:05] <james> cheers
[01:05] <Cairna> I tried it, a little fast, granted. Anyway, apparently it does not have anything to support my kernel. So what were you saying about the drivers that came with Ubuntu?
[01:05] <dcordes> how can I find out which display has which identifier in order to set up xorg.conf to get two different xservers on two displays?
[01:05] <Wizek> BashBang, it won't do anything to my windows? there is iportant files...
[01:05] <Jordan_U> Wizek, What are you trying to do? repartitioning is always a little dangerous
  ok where i get the soures ?
[01:06] <sm5por> james: "chmod +x file" should do the trick, I suppose.
[01:06] <Cairna> If you're on Vista be careful about resizing, wizek
[01:06] <chipito-br> hello can somebody help me with internet access??? after formatting my pc (hd upgrade) and installing 7.04 (which i used before) internet stopped working... can somebody help me? thanks
[01:06] <PriceChild> liorkamer, sudo apt-get install amsn
[01:06] <Wizek> it is a grub error 21...
[01:07] <Jordan_U> chipito-br, Wireless or wired?
[01:07] <chipito-br> Jordan_U: wired
[01:07] <BashBang> Wizek not if you have windows on your sata drive, should show up as /dev/sda.  type  mount in the console and it will show you all your hard drives
[01:07] <unagi_> is it possible to switch sides on the desktop the icons sit?
[01:07] <pitooow> c/nick pitoow_BRA
[01:07] <Jordan_U> chipito-br, What happens if you run: sudo ifup eth0 && sudo dhclient eth0
[01:07] <Jordan_U> ?
[01:08] <Cairna> Anyhoo, what were ya saying about, preloaded drivers, Jordan?  I know I got Ubuntu workin' great with my last 'puter.  But twas with a FX 5500, and now a 6150 LE.
[01:08] <chipito-br> Jordan_U: nothing, lan works perfectly, just internet doesn't
[01:09] <Jordan_U> Cairna, Just that there are nvidia drivers available in the repositories that are generally easier to use and won't break whenever you upgrade your kernel
[01:09] <james> What's the gui version of sudo again?
[01:09] <Wizek> BashBang, root@ubuntu:~# mkfs.ext3 /dev/hda

[01:09] <hamza> hey guys ...i dont get the loading screen in ubuntu when i boot....like in windows...any solution
[01:09] <james> Thanks for all your help!
[01:09] <BashBang> Wizek : yup that will do it
[01:09] <crippler> Does ubuntu have a auto installer so i dont have to download a 690mb zip and burn a cd. Maybe similar to debian's installer?
[01:09] <hamza> hey guys ...i dont get the loading screen in ubuntu when i boot....like in windows...any solution
[01:09] <kitche> !alternate | crippler this has it
[01:09] <chipito-br> Jordan_U: how can i "reset" all the connections (or maybe reconpile the kernel?) it seems the system is not using/detecting DNS
[01:10] <Jordan_U> crippler, You mean like Debians exe installer?
[01:10] <Wizek> BashBang, it did nothing
[01:10] <ubotu> crippler this has it: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[01:10] <Wizek> BashBang, only wrote that out
[01:10] <hamza> hey guys ...i dont get the loading screen in ubuntu when i boot....like in windows...any solution????
[01:10] <Cairna> How do I use these so called " repositories", Jordan?
[01:10] <Jordan_U> chipito-br, So "sudo dhclient etho" Does *not* work?
[01:11] <BashBang> Wizek : it's not suppose to say anything, try to reinstall now.
[01:11] <chipito-br> Jordan_U: the commands work, but it does not solve my problem
[01:11] <Neil3> !Minimal
[01:11] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[01:11] <liorkamer> its dont work..(amsn)
[01:11] <Jordan_U> chipito-br, If the commands "worked" then you wouldn't have a problem
[01:12] <chipito-br> Jordan_U: u know what i meant :P
[01:12] <Dangerous> is there a way to get a text boot up instead of that graphical loader that doesn't tell you sqwat about what is going on?
[01:12] <pixelation> Gah, so Xubuntu has marked my whole Windows drive as read only... How do I undo this?
[01:12] <astro76> !ntfs-3g | pixelation
[01:12] <ubotu> pixelation: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[01:13] <Jordan_U> chipito-br, Yes, but I need to know if dhclient gets anything from dhcp or not, I am assuming not
[01:13] <W_McL> Dangerous, edit your /boot/grub/menu.list, remove the "quiet" enry after the kernel
[01:13] <W_McL> *entry
[01:13] <Dangerous> thanks buddy
[01:13] <crippler> Jordan_U, yes like debian's exe
[01:13] <Cairna> I'll be bach.
[01:13] <W_McL> then you'll still have the bootsplash but with boot messages displayed under the progress bar
[01:13] <chipito-br> Jordan_U: yes, it gets the ip correctly (<IP_ADDRESS>) mask (<IP_ADDRESS>) gateway (<IP_ADDRESS>) but internet simply dont work
[01:14] <Jordan_U> !wubi | crippler

[01:36] <sx66_> where is the abiword thesaurus?
[01:36] <BashBang> hamza : and the hardware is new too?
[01:36] <hamza> bashbang and im dual booting with winxp..if thats causing any problem
[01:36] <phoenixz> How do I stop the firewall on (k)ubuntu??
[01:36] <dave_> i got a radeon 9200 i just switched from an older nvidia, and i cant get glx to work
[01:36] <dave_> lopen: libGLcore.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[01:36] <vzduch> hamza: it should be in the updates
[01:37] <dave_> keep getting that in my xorg.0.log
[01:37] <BashBang> hamza : windows shouldn't bother it any
[01:37] <x89x> jordan_U
[01:37] <x89x> theres a card named Live
[01:37] <x89x> how do i choose that ?
[01:37] <RoC_MasterMind> phoenixz, there is no firewall configured by default.
[01:37] <x89x> and make it default ?
[01:37] <sm5por> JackC: Maybe the Alacarte menu editor is what you want? Not sure if I understand your question.
[01:37] <Jordan_U> x89x, I don't know, if that is what you think is the card you want then yes
[01:38] <systemd0wn> Question-Scripting, Is there a command i can enter in the gnome terminal that will open anther command say "ls" in a new window?
[01:38] <BashBang> hamza : the only place you usually see UUID's is in /etc/fstab
[01:38] <x89x> thats the card
[01:38] <x89x> i'm sure
[01:38] <perplejo> hi
[01:38] <x89x> how do i choose it now jordan_U ?
[01:38] <perplejo> i have a question about the live cd
[01:38] <hamza> bashbang the hardware is quite old..p4 1.7g...recently added 256ram..total 512ram
[01:38] <freeagy> how can i close the dvd tray with console?
[01:39] <elliotf> freeagy, try to mount the dvd device
[01:39] <Jordan_U> x89x, asoundconf -set-default-card <name>
[01:39] <EADG> freeagy: eject -t
[01:39] <perplejo> can i burn the live cd in a cd-rw?
[01:39] <elliotf> EADG, much better than mine.  :)
[01:39] <hamza> bashbang i didnt even get the graphical boot loading screen when i was installing from live cd
[01:39] <BashBang> hamza : just thinking you might have a bad sector on your disk is all, no evidence to back it up though
[01:39] <Frogzoo> perplejo: sure
[01:40] <RoC_MasterMind> perplejo, yes...CD-RW's are good!
[01:40] <Jordan_U> x89x, actually there is no "-" before set
[01:40] <phoenixz> RoC_MasterMind, So there is also no way to quickly enable and disable the firewall?
[01:40] <RoC_MasterMind> phoenixz, did you ever configure a firewall?
[01:40] <x89x> fdone jordan_U
[01:40] <x89x> now let me test the sound
[01:40] <phoenixz> RoC_MasterMind, Yeah, using fwbuilder, nice tool!
[01:40] <hamza> bashbang is there a scan or something to check it..and i only have a 40gb hd
[01:40] <freeagy> EADG thank you. \o/
[01:41] <RoC_MasterMind> phoenixz, you probably have to dump all the rules.
[01:41] <ralph> why can't i forward images in evolution?
[01:41] <jufa> ey ppl
[01:41] <yurimxpxman> what's a good program to use to record the audio output? (audacity doesn't seem to have that capability in linux..)
[01:41] <RoC_MasterMind> phoenixz, also try that question in #linux
[01:41] <x89x> its playing :)
[01:41] <x89x> yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh
[01:41] <RoC_MasterMind> phoenixz, and google.
[01:41] <perplejo> i tried to boot from a CD-RW but just gets skipped. I tried booting from the BIOS,choosing the cd drive and nothing, any ideas?
[01:41] <x89x> thanks jordan_U :)
[01:41] <sm5por> systemd0wn, try "xterm /bin/ls"
[01:41] <phoenixz> RoC_MasterMind, lets just say.. on Fedora I could do "service iptables stop" and thats it.. firewall: off
[01:42] <RoC_MasterMind> perplejo, use a CDR
[01:42] <Jordan_U> x89x, np :)
[01:42] <perplejo> did too
[01:42] <phoenixz> RoC_MasterMind, service firewall start, firewall: on
[01:42] <freeagy> & the what is the open command? \o/
[01:42] <systemd0wn> sm5por, will do. thanks
[01:42] <BashBang> hamza : what format is the disk in?  ext3, reiserfs?
[01:42] <RoC_MasterMind> phoenixz, yeah I'm familiar with those, but not at all familiar with iptables management.
[01:42] <Frogzoo> phoenixz: so submit a patch
[01:42] <systemd0wn> sm5por, nothin :)
[01:42] <EADG> freeagy: hehe, it's eject.   have a look at man eject for more options.
[01:42] <x89x> jordan_U how do i write on an NTFS partition using linux ? ?
[01:43] <phoenixz> RoC_MasterMind, I have to say.. that "service" command in fedora really was nice.. Though I love kubuntu (sorry, Im an kde guy) I really miss that command
[01:43] <RoC_MasterMind> !ntfs-3g | x89x
[01:43] <ubotu> x89x: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[01:43] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | x89x
[01:43] <x89x> is it safe >>
[01:43] <phoenixz> Frogzoo, I would love to, but I am not such an expert yet..
[01:43] <perplejo> i also checked burning the right thing in the cd
[01:43] <phoenixz> Frogzoo, for now, my contribution will be the idea :)
[01:43] <RoC_MasterMind> x89x, their webpage already answers that, and yes.
[01:43] <hamza> bashbang i have no clue abt that
[01:44] <x89x> jordan_U
[01:44] <dissection> Anyone here knows how to use megahal?
[01:44] <x89x> do i always have to access the terminal for the alsamixer ??
[01:44] <sm5por> systemd0wn, the argument to xterm simply replaces the shell. /bin/ls will likely terminate immediately. You need a script that will pause or wait for keyboard input, such as more/less.
[01:44] <BashBang> hamza : type mount into a console it will tell you
[01:45] <jufa> who is girls
[01:45] <p99> The upgrade methods shown for breezy won't work
[01:45] <p99> I can't upgrade the update-manager package
[01:45] <thebigham> wats the channel for beryl questions
[01:45] <hamza> bashbang its probably ext3 /dev/sda3 on / type ext3
[01:45] <RoC_MasterMind> thebigham, #beryl
[01:46] <bhurt> #quit
[01:46] <bhurt> \quit
[01:46] <cacus> anybody knows anything about using GStreamer engine in Amarok under Feisty????
[01:46] <RoC_MasterMind> phoenixz, service iptables stop will dump all the rules...the rules are saved in a separate file that it uses when you "start" it...
[01:46] <systemd0wn> sm5por, ah i see what you mean, i had to run the command a couple times to see it, but say "gnome-terminal" opens (most likely processes the command) and closes very quickly.
[01:47] <Frogzoo> systemd0wn: the term is closing cos the command has finished
[01:48] <freeagy> EADG  ok
[01:48] <hamza> bashbang the system does boot if i don't do anything but it takes a lot of time... and the lack of boot screen makes it look very unattractive
[01:49] <liorkamer> i fixed the amsn... :)
[01:49] <BashBang> hamza : I understand, it's very ugly
[01:49] <systemd0wn> Frogzoo, ya i get it. thanks!  this might actually work out since the app im running is going to stay open until i give it some sort of quit command
[01:49] <aaron> serpentine isn't seeing my cd/dvd burner. any advice?
[01:49] <systemd0wn> sm5por, frogzoo, Thanks.
[01:49] <sm5por> systemd0wn, maybe you can write a shell script that runs the command and pipes it through more
[01:49] <p99> When I install ubuntu 6.06 my wifi card doesn't work but if I install 5.10 the wifi card does work. I think it's cus 5.10 actually asks to cinfigure the wifi card. What should I do? I cannot do anything withough internet.
[01:50] <pramz> what wifi card ?
[01:50] <x89x> hey how do i access alsamixer w/o the teminal ??
[01:50] <p99> d-link dwl-g AirPlus
[01:50] <pramz> the gnome sound applet should be able to set the volume etc for you
[01:50] <EADG> x89x: double click your speaker icon iirc
[01:50] <jrib> x89x: double click on the speaker icon in your panel
[01:50] <BashBang> hamza : try   cat /var/log/syslog | grep -in error    see if there are any error messages related to the disk
[01:51] <hamza> bashbang during normal boot the system boots from dev/sda3......cant i tell it to boot directly from here instead of the resume thing
[01:51] <p99> D-link dwl-g630 AirPlus*
[01:51] <systemd0wn> sm5por, the idea behind this is that the command will destroy my ath0 dev then start aircrack-ng (later adding to the script variables like channel etc) since this application is going to stay running until i give it a quit command it should be fine.
[01:51] <jrib> p99: why not try 7.04?
[01:51] <p99> Same thing happens
[01:51] <phoenixz> RoC_MasterMind, Exactly.. and its an easy thing to do
[01:51] <pramz> p99, do you remember how you got it to work in 5.10 ?
[01:52] <p99> The live cd install method doesn't have a part for configuring wifi
[01:52] <p99> I'm on 5.10 right now
[01:52] <jrib> p99: not sure then, but you should check bugs.ubuntu.com for a bug report about it and if one does not exist, file one
[01:52] <p99> the install utility is debian style
[01:52] <p99> k
[01:52] <pramz> p99, what does ifconfig say ? wlan0? or eth1 ? or something else for that wifi card ?
[01:52] <p99> h/o
[01:52] <x89x> how do i get my wifi max work ?? it has a zydas driver zydas1211B
[01:52] <hamza> bashbang its only this 02:07:33 hamza-linux init: Failed to open console: Input/output error
[01:52] <RoC_MasterMind> p99, if you can, download the latest install disc.
[01:53] <p99> I downloaded 7.04 xubuntu

[01:53] <RoC_MasterMind> !wifi > x89x did you get this yet?
[01:53] <BashBang> hamza : it has to boot from /dev/sda3 no matter what, that's where the root file system is. kinit seems to getting confused as to getting to it
[01:54] <x89x> ya
[01:54] <systemd0wn> thebigham, it has the directions on beryls site... let me see if i have a link
[01:54] <x89x> i sec
[01:54] <BlackChaos> jrib: how do i access that
[01:54] <p99> my bad
[01:54] <thebigham> systemd0wn, thanks alot =)

[01:55] <p99> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30172/plain/
[01:55] <jrib> BlackChaos: with the command 'gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst'.  You should make a backup if you aren't sure about this
[01:56] <x89x> RoC_MasterMind how do i ge tit work ?
[01:56] <BashBang> hamza : ever try booting in failsafe mode? any different?
[01:56] <x89x> its a zydas driver based
[01:56] <sm5por> systemd0wn, maybe you can tell me where I can find a howto for testing/troubleshooting device drivers? I have a USB serial port that doesn't work...
[01:56] <hamza> bashbang havnt tried that..this is where kinit tries to find resume image /dev/disk/by-uiid/21d7584d-9224-4c0a-b3be-f0ac42a0f319 sda8
[01:57] <WisdomWolf> I need help
[01:57] <WisdomWolf> I just installed nvidia-glx drivers and beryl on a laptop and when I restart i get a black screen
[01:57] <RoC_MasterMind> x89x, I carefully research stuff, I have an Orinoco Silver PC Card for WiFi on my laptop, it just works when I put it in.
[01:57] <BashBang> hamza : so it does it at the grub splash screen?
[01:57] <RoC_MasterMind> WisdomWolf, did you ask on #beryl ?
[01:57] <systemd0wn> sm5por, is it a USB to Serial adapter?
[01:57] <ThanatosDrive> I just want to say all you 1000+ people in this channel helping us new-comers out: Thank you!
[01:58] <WisdomWolf> no, cause i don't know if beryl is the problem or nvidia
[01:58] <sm5por> systemd0wn, it's a Wiretek USB to serial port adapter, model UN8BE.
[01:58] <x89x> RoC_MasterMind i got the files
[01:58] <WisdomWolf> I would assume it's nvidia drivers cause beryl has to be started manually it doesn't start with X
[01:58] <x89x> its telling of something like compliing
[01:58] <BashBang> sm5por : i had one of those cables that had the pl2303 drivers for two years and it never worked for me, I threw it out
[01:58] <x89x> how do i do that ?
[01:59] <systemd0wn> sm5por, are you connecting it to anything in particular?  GPS?
[01:59] <Op3r> hello! one question whats a good music player for ubuntu?
[01:59] <sm5por> BashBang, sorry to hear that...
[02:00] <ThanatosDrive> Op3r: The one already built-in is quite excellent.
[02:00] <sm5por> systemd0wn, yes, a Garmin eTrex Venture actually.
[02:00] <dissection> Anyone here knows how to use megahal?
[02:00] <Op3r> ThanatosDrive, which is rhytmbox?
[02:00] <ThanatosDrive> Op3r: Or try XMMS.
[02:00] <WisdomWolf> MasterMind do you have any suggestions?
[02:00] <ThanatosDrive> Op3r: Yes.
[02:00] <hamza> bashbang it does that after i choose the ubuntu os and then comes the black screen and i have to press altf2 and then it says starting up loading please wait
[02:00] <systemd0wn> sm5por, unplug it, and plug it back in.  then in the console type "dmesg" look at the last few lines you should see that it recognized the device and assigned the adapter something like /dev/ttyUSB0
[02:00] <BashBang> sm5por there is a difference in the drivers between the pl2303 and the pl2303x you have to find out what kind of chip your cable has
[02:01] <BashBang> hamza : k, grub is good then, see if you can boot failsafe and see if it makes any difference
[02:01] <WisdomWolf> anyone?
[02:01] <Dusk_> !flock
[02:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about flock - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:01] <antitab> anyone in here good with javascript? :|
[02:02] <phoenixz> RoC_MasterMind, doh! The service command DOES exist.. its only not installed.. typing service in bash tells you exactly what you need to install to get it :) kubuntu rulez!
[02:02] <kyja> so is there like an archive of bash scripts and clipings to add to bashrc to make a beefy terminal experiance?
[02:02] <hamza> bashbang which item is failsafe in the boot list
[02:02] <Dusk_> how do i uninstall flock browser??
[02:02] <sm5por> I have a /dev/ttyUSB0 device file, it appeared when I first plugged the device in. Should I repeat it?
[02:02] <jrib> antitab: ##javascript is a better place
[02:02] <antitab> I'm there
[02:02] <jrib> Dusk_: how did you install it?
[02:02] <antitab> no luck
[02:03] <BashBang> hamza : oh, it should say, maybe you don't have that
[02:03] <Dusk_> jrib, from the source
[02:03] <hamza> bachbang there is a recovery mode
[02:03] <hamza> bashbang there is a recovery mode
[02:03] <sm5por> BashBang, I'll look around about the pl2303/pl2303x difference, thanks for the hint.
[02:03] <dissection> Anyone here who has used Megahal? Should I install the eggdrop or the one from from apt-get? I don't know the difference between the two or which of the two is better
[02:03] <WisdomWolf> could someone at least give me some suggestion on how to go about solving this problem? I'm sure I can get to the HD with a live disk, just don't know what to do once i get there
[02:03] <jrib> Dusk_: so.... 'make install'?  or something else?
[02:03] <RoC_MasterMind> phoenixz, interesting...let me know if it works as expected.
[02:04] <kyja> !basharchive
[02:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about basharchive - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:04] <nikitis> what is glibc-devel called in ubuntu?
[02:04] <jrib> antitab: try later there then or wait a bit.  If it's related to Ubuntu, feel free to ask here
[02:04] <nikitis> I can't compile stuff without it
[02:04] <Dusk_> jrib, oh no sorry...i remembered..from a linux installer...a bin file it was
[02:04] <systemd0wn> sm5por, no i just wanted to see that it was being recognized
[02:04] <BashBang> hamza : try it just to see if it will boot any different then restart, try to narrow down the problem a bit
[02:04] <hamza> ok
[02:04] <jrib> Dusk_: I see, well you have to consult the documentation for it then.  There's no way to guess what it does or if it provides some uninstall switch
[02:04] <WisdomWolf> did I do something to make everyone ignore me?
[02:05] <sm5por> systemd0wn, It appearantly is. According to modinfo, the pl2303 module has been loaded.

[02:05] <hamza> bashbang wats the entry to get the dhcp from the wireless network...becuz i may have to use that at startup
[02:05] <BashBang> sm5por : prolific has some documentation on their site, rpm stuff i think but i believe it has some stuff on hard linking, and udev
[02:05] <unagi> is it possible to switch what side the desktop icons are on?
[02:06] <WisdomWolf> sorry, just had a response and then nothing...didn't mean to be rude
[02:06] <systemd0wn> sm5por, aight. so your using gpsd?
[02:06] <jrib> Dusk_: http://brentroos.com/2006/07/24/install-flock-on-ubuntu/ seems to list the commands you need to uninstall it
[02:06] <sm5por> systemd0wn, unfortunately I have no RS-232 serial tester so I can check whether the signals are getting out, but I believe they aren't.
[02:06] <BashBang> hamza : dhcp? you need your network address you mean?
[02:07] <Dusk_> jrib, thanks
[02:07] <darkkish> In knoppix
[02:07] <darkkish> er... debian
[02:07] <sm5por> BashBang, prolific? I'll have to check that.
[02:07] <darkkish> how do i mount my FAT32 drive to give write access?
[02:07] <BashBang> hamza : iwconfig; ifconfig ethx
[02:07] <systemd0wn> sm5por, (you did make sure that the garmin is set to use the serial port?)  you can "cat /dev/ttyUSB0" i believe
[02:07] <phoenixz> RoC_MasterMind, works.. install debian-helper-scripts and "service" command is available
[02:08] <zango> Can I run Counter strike source on 64 bit ubuntu? via wine (or something else)
[02:08] <spiral_shell>  hi can anyone help?  I am getting "greeted me with my own hostname " errors in my logs...
[02:08] <BashBang> sm5por : that's who makes the chip for that cable, if you do a lsusb it should say prolific in the name field
[02:08] <spiral_shell> and also "replied to HELO/EHLO with my own hostname" warnings
[02:08] <RoC_MasterMind> zango, I don't think so, it's for 32-bit.
[02:08] <blizzow> What's the best way of upgrading my feisty installation to gutsy?
[02:08] <sm5por> systemd0wn, no, I plan to use gpsbabel, but I have used minicom for testing purposes. The GPS is set to text mode, 4800 bps, and I set minicom to the same. It's silent.
[02:08] <phoenixz> RoC_MasterMind, only bad thing about apt-get is that its kind of bad with conflicts and problem messages.. if there is a conflict, half of what I selected is installed, the other half is not.. and the other half I selected is no longer selected either, and if that were like 20 packages, good luck with finding out which ones I selected again.. and "There is a conflict" is also not too clear, what conflict? with what package? why?
[02:09] <phoenixz> RoC_MasterMind, NOT that I am complaining :)
[02:09] <x89x> can linux play xvid videos ??
[02:09] <phoenixz> ubuntu and kubuntu rule..
[02:09] <BashBang> sm5por : they have drivers as well but rpm's last time i checked
[02:09] <PriceChild> x89x, yes
[02:09] <x89x> which program
[02:09] <x89x> >>
[02:09] <PriceChild> !mp3 | x89x
[02:09] <zango> RoC_MasterMind, i figure: CSS runs on 64 windows fine and Linux can run 32 bit binaries....
[02:09] <ubotu> x89x: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[02:09] <RoC_MasterMind> phoenixz, I have to say, I have always found apt-get very smart...."There is a conflict" has never happened for me.
[02:09] <RoC_MasterMind> zango, oh...I don't know, usually esoteric and proprietary stuff doesn't work out for 64bit people.
[02:10] <systemd0wn> sm5por, hrm. i was actually having issues with minicom and cutecom and a adapter today... but i have gotten it working many many times... so did you "cat /dev/ttyUSB0" ?
[02:10] <WisdomWolf> zango, I would look into cedega
[02:10] <zolty> Hi there, I am a fairly new user.  I am using a pvr 150 tv capture card and I never seen video0 appear in the dev folder, I am using 7.04 64bit
[02:10] <phoenixz> RoC_MasterMind, When there is a conflict it does not give a whole lot of info about it.. actually, apt-get gives really vague errors, and adept manager only says "a conflict or something"... That could be improved I think
[02:10] <RoC_MasterMind> phoenixz, pastebin an example.
[02:10] <phoenixz> (and thats not flaming)
[02:10] <sm5por> BashBang, I'll look at their site. Domain name?
[02:10] <phoenixz> RoC_MasterMind, well, when I encounter another conflict, I will :) ATM I have nothing to install
[02:11] <John`> is there a way to set resolution in vlc player using terminal?
[02:11] <systemd0wn> sm5por, cat should at least tell you if anything is being sent from the GPS to the computer
[02:12] <BashBang> sm5por : hang on a sec
[02:12] <sm5por> systemd0wn, Hmm, "cat /dev/ttyUSB0" yields "Protocol error". Weird.

[02:13] <systemd0wn> sm5por, i wish i had my garmin around and my adapter... but can you change data rates perhaps?
[02:14] <sm5por> systemd0wn, a few days ago I tried to reload the pl2303 module with debug=1, but I'm not sure it made any difference. Perhaps I need a reboot...
[02:14] <BashBang> sm5por : are you connecting a phone to your cable?
[02:15] <systemd0wn> BashBang, its a Garmin GPS --> Serial to USB adapter --> computer
[02:15] <GiantNoob> I need some help
[02:15] <BashBang> systemd0wn : thx
[02:15] <systemd0wn> bashbang, np
[02:15] <systemd0wn> sm5por, i suppose it wouldnt hurt to reboot.
[02:15] <GiantNoob> I installed ubuntu and i cant play DVDs now
[02:15] <sm5por> BashBang, site bookmarked, thanks! No, I have a GPS, but I also have a modem around if necessary.

[02:16] <GiantNoob> ok
[02:16] <lufis> What's the best all-in-one printer brand for Linux? something that's guaranteed to work?
[02:16] <BashBang> sm5por : just so you know the driver from prolific is not the same as the driver in the kernel, the kernel driver is reverse engineered
[02:17] <jrib> John`: see http://www.videolan.org/doc/play-howto/en/ch04.html, specifically the "--width" and "--height" switches probably
[02:17] <sm5por> systemd0wn, I'll try a reboot later if nothing easier works. This time I'll write down the steps I try on paper to remember them.
[02:17] <zolty> Hi there, I am a fairly new user.  I am using a pvr 150 tv capture card and I never seen video0 appear in the dev folder, I am using 7.04 64bit.  Does anyone have any experience in this area?
[02:17] <unagi_> why is kde so popular?
[02:17] <systemd0wn> sm5por, i wish i did that, i feel like most the time i try the same few things over and over again. :)  Might have found a forum where someone was having the same prob.
[02:18] <jrib> unagi_: that's a question better asked in #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:18] <unagi_> i didnt consider it to be offtopic since kde can be and usually is implemented in ubuntu jrib
[02:18] <jrib> !away > MrTsunami (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:19] <sm5por> BashBang, good to know. Can I determine the driver version from modinfo somehow? I see "srcversion:     DB9C92CE3A19BB36B1827F1"; tells me nothing!
[02:19] <astro76> lufis, http://openprinting.org/printer_list.cgi?make=Anyone
[02:19] <jrib> unagi_: I see, but #ubuntu is for ubuntu support only
[02:19] <lufis> astro76: thanks :)
[02:19] <BrendanM> ok, so rmdir doesn't work if there's stuff in a directory
[02:19] <BrendanM> what command can I use to delete a directory AND the stuff inside it?
[02:19] <systemd0wn> sm5por, nevermind that forum link went no where... i will keep looking
[02:19] <red> whats the cli for installing the newest version of openoffice
[02:19] <jrib> BrendanM: rm -r
[02:19] <unagi_> anyone know if it is possible to have ubuntu arrange desktop icons on the right side of the screen?
[02:19] <jrib> !cli > BrendanM (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:20] <BrendanM> yeah, thanks. I know what a CLI is
[02:20] <RoC_MasterMind> red, apt-get install openoffice.org
[02:20] <jrib> BrendanM: the page ubotu linked you to also contains the answer to your question as well as similar information
[02:20] <unagi_> anyone know if it is possible to add menu items to thedesktop menu?
[02:20] <BashBang> sm5por : lsusb  may give you better details on what chip set you have exactly, to get the driver version you could try and grep /usr/src/linux for pl2303, should have the version in the top comments
[02:21] <zolty> Hi there, I am a fairly new user.  I am using a pvr 150 tv capture card and I never seen video0 appear in the dev folder, I am using 7.04 64bit.  Everything I read says this card should be supported by the kernel, it is not a pvr1600.  Could someone please tell me what it means when i can see the device in the hardware manager but it does not show up in /dev/?
[02:21] <^overshard^> Is there a decent tutorial for installing Beryl on a 7.04 Ubuntu system with an ATI graphics card?  The ones on the official beryl site no longer work properly.
[02:22] <RoC_MasterMind> zolty, sorry to hear....it seems the hauppage pvr150 was a crappy card...pvr-250 was what everbody bought...although that doesn't help you
[02:22] <swiftly> I just tryed to install PokerTH 0.5 and its saying I need GLIC 2.4? I think I ound out I have a file libc-2.3.6 or something. Only new at this and need tro get the newer file? Can anyone help?
[02:22] <jrib> ^overshard^: try #ubuntu-effects for help with beryl
[02:22] <mzanfardino> I want to maximize the performance of a server I'm installing ubuntu to.  That hardward is: quad dual-core xeon CPU with 8GB ram and ~1T RAID5 (hw) storage.  I'd like to install 32-bit ubuntu, but will it be able to address the hardware sufficiently?  My chief purpose is to host vmware server and virtualize a number of installations...
[02:22] <RoC_MasterMind> ^overshard^, consider compiz-fusion
[02:22] <mzanfardino> s/that/the
[02:22] <mzanfardino> s/hardward/hardware
[02:23] <zolty> so instead of helping or just telling me what it means when it shows up in one spot but not the other, you insult my hardware choices?
[02:24] <BashBang> zolty : did you look in /proc?
[02:24] <RoC_MasterMind> I'm saying your twice inconvenienced.
[02:25] <swiftly> Can anyone tell me how to get GLIBC2.4? I must have GLIBC 2.3 (only knew so...)
[02:25] <sm5por> BashBang, lsusb says PL2303 Serial Port. I don't have sources installed, /usr/src is empty. I can find the module in my file system, though what I really want is something to tell me the exact status of what is loaded into the kernel.
[02:25] <sdouble> anyone know if it's possible to set numlock on by default?
[02:25] <jrib> swiftly: what version of ubuntu are you using?  feisty seems to have 2.5
[02:25] <zolty> bash, just checked also no video0 in there
[02:25] <nikitis> What is the OpenGL Header package called?
[02:25] <GiantNoob> anyone know how to change my reselution higher than 2024 bye 768?
[02:26] <swiftly> jrib: picked up an old DVD the other day and havent looked back. Would'nt know
[02:26] <BashBang> sm5por : lsmod | grep -in pl2303
[02:26] <jrib> !version > swiftly (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:28] <swiftly> jrib: it be dapper
[02:28] <sm5por> BashBang, done that, it gives module names, sizes and dependencies (pl2303, usbserial, usbcore). Maybe I don't need more.
[02:28] <Krumar> hey, if i install ubuntu on a computer right now, and leave a partition free on it for a windows install later on, how will grub handle it?
[02:28] <Frogzoo> sdouble: look in keyboard preferences
[02:28] <BashBang> zolty : check   dmesg   /var/log/Xorg.0.log      see if any thing is seeing it
[02:29] <wolflord> Howdy all
[02:29] <sdouble> haha, thanks Frogzoo.  I expected it to be more difficult that that.  =P
[02:29] <wolflord> how do you check to see if samba has been installed ??
[02:29] <scoobtits> whats the command to brign up the wine configuration???
[02:29] <RoC_MasterMind> Krumar, yes grub will handle it.
[02:29] <RoC_MasterMind> !dual-boot > Krumar
[02:29] <astro76> Krumar, windows will overwrite the mbr and you will have to recover grub: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[02:30] <Krumar> thank you RoC_MasterMind
[02:30] <|thunder> OffTopic: can anyone remember which torrent site got served with papers saying that HAD TO KEEP ALL RECORDS? was it torrentreactor ?
[02:30] <scoobtits> how do i bring up the wine configuration..>??/
[02:30] <Krumar> ah, astro76 , i had a feeling windows would over write it
[02:30] <jrib> swiftly: you should upgrade to feisty fawn 7.04 if you want more recent software
[02:30] <Frogzoo> scoobtits: winecfg
[02:30] <jrib> |thunder: #ubuntu-offtopic is for offtopic :)
[02:30] <scoobtits> Frogzoo:thnx bud
[02:31] <wolflord> how do you check to see if samba has been installed ??
[02:31] <swiftly> jrib: is it possible to keep all my other software still?
[02:31] <sm5por> BashBang, what bothers me is that I reloaded pl2303 with debug=1, but I don't see whether it had any effect.
[02:31] <RoC_MasterMind> |thunder, it doesn't matter.
[02:31] <BashBang> sm5por  you have to apt-get --install the kernel source, that's why /usr/src is empty.
[02:31] <swiftly> and all my odocs etc?
[02:31] <jrib> swiftly: sure you can upgrade from dapper to edgy and then to feisty using the package manager.  Let me send you the instructions
[02:31] <jrib> !upgrade > swiftly (see the private message from ubotu)

[02:32] <elpargo> hi, has happen to anyone, I installed vmware and now networkmanager is not getting my DHCP settings right, I assume there is some conflict with the virtual devices
[02:32] <BashBang> sm5por : I'll tell you every thing I can about it, but be warned your on a hellish nightmare of a trip trying to get that thing going.
[02:32] <unagi_> anyone know if it is possible to have ubuntu arrange desktop icons on the right side of the screen?
[02:32] <swiftly> thanks jrib... should be able to get this going now...
[02:33] <elpargo> swiftly I did that at work, it worked just fine, although it did took some time.
[02:33] <systemd0wn> sm5por, you mind letting me know if you get this working?  Like i said i was having problems with an adapter today so perhaps its the same thing.
[02:33] <BashBang> sm5por : I tried for two years and then trashed the damned thing
[02:33] <elpargo> swiftly, although if you do have a data partition I recommend a reinstall (download wise is less data)
[02:33] <sm5por> BashBang, I appreciate your help and warnings, but I think I need a pause right now to consider my options.
[02:33] <sdouble> anyone get the radeon driver to work on a 9800 pro?  My glxinfo says direct rendering: No  Just wondering if it's supported or not.  I've seen it listed as "experimental"

[02:35] <BashBang> sm5por : the only other place i can think of to look is on the gentoo forums, they are the best, alot of smart people there, some dumb ones too though  :)
[02:35] <sm5por> systemd0wn, I'll let you know if you tell me where I should send it. I'm not a regular IRC user, I installed xchat just to ask this question.
[02:35] <elpargo> does "mark for complete removal" in aptitude == --purge in apt?
[02:35] <PriceChild> elpargo, yes
[02:36] <systemd0wn> sm5por, thanks, i can send you some ideas if i figure it out tomorrow at work.

[02:39] <astro76> that's gnome though
[02:39] <FusE> eth1 is
[02:39] <unagi> kde doesnt have a similar app?
[02:39] <astro76> mo0osah, I think there's an AutoStart directory somewhere in your home
[02:39] <unagi> kde is weird man
[02:39] <sm5por> systemd0wn, thanks for the advice (and BashBang too, but he's gone asleep I think). I'll send you a note just to recap.
[02:39] <skollie> what happens when you restart it i.e. disable and enable?
[02:40] <FusE> sec
[02:40] <systemd0wn> sm5por, np and thank for the recap.

[02:41] <astro76> mo0osah, does your script work when you run it manually?
[02:41] <mo0osah> yes
[02:41] <unagi> sigh.....even if it requiers shell scripting....does anyone know if its possible to have the desktop icons sit on the right side of the desktop or add 'clean up by type' to the desktop menu?
[02:41] <mo0osah> astro76:  it's for wacom mouse scroll fix
[02:41] <skollie> FusE: no idea, sorry
[02:41] <FusE> nothing happens when I restar tit
[02:41] <jrib> mo0osah: did you test it with an app like 'kate' or something?
[02:42] <FusE> It just shows the two computers overlapped, and wher my strength icon would be, its yellow
[02:42] <mo0osah> i just typed those commands in the terminal and they work
[02:42] <mo0osah> so i put them in a file

[02:42] <ubotu> ferret_0567: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[02:42] <PriceChild> ferret_0567, "Don't"
[02:42] <ferret_0567> don't?
[02:43] <calc> ferret_0567: you can compile it like any other dist... but it is recommended you don't
[02:43] <wert613> heya PriceChild =D
[02:43] <PriceChild> ferret_0567, there is no real reason.... why do you want to?
[02:43] <ferret_0567> All I want is a package
[02:43] <calc> ferret_0567: even linus doesn't recommend using vanilla kernels
[02:43] <jrib> mo0osah: do you have a shebang line at the top of the file and does it have executable permissions?
[02:43] <ferret_0567> weird errors in my dmesg about hard drives
[02:43] <skollie> FusE: that means it's not connecting to your router
[02:43] <calc> ferret_0567: linus considers it distributions job to make kernels usable for users
[02:43] <ferret_0567> and cd drives
[02:43] <PriceChild> ferret_0567, higher version numbers do not mean better.
[02:43] <mo0osah> jrib: shebang line?
[02:43] <FusE> Ive checked the configuration, my key and ssid is correct
[02:43] <FusE> I used windows today
[02:43] <jrib> mo0osah: like:   #!/bin/sh
[02:43] <mo0osah> yea i did chmod +x .....
[02:44] <ferret_0567> PriceChild: a lot has changed from 2.6.20 and 2.6.21
[02:44] <PriceChild> ferret_0567, and most was backported
[02:44] <skollie> FusE: try to re-enter the key
[02:44] <FusE> skollie, is essid the same as ssid
[02:44] <ferret_0567> I don't really care if higher version numbers don't mean better
[02:44] <ferret_0567> I just want to try making a newer kernel and see if it fixes my issue

[02:57] <skollie> FusE: when you search for wireless connections, does it detect your router?
[02:58] <JBH> I have an IPod video, and I've tried using both gtkpod and Amarok to play music (most imported from .mp3s to the IPod).  However, I get an error that the files can't be played.  Is there a codecs I can get that supports playing music from the IPod?

[03:00] <mrsno> wizek many problems have been solved with a bios update for your motherboard, unfortunately
[03:00] <skollie> JBH: then you should not need additional codes. Does your ipod show up as a device in amarok?
[03:00] <scoobtits> hey guys how do you install a program with discs in wine, liek changing the disks
[03:00] <mo0osah> mneptok: k, let me restart x
[03:00] <mrsno> wizek if that is possible i would start with that, then check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Core_2_Duo_Support for other workarounds (shouldn't be needed on feisty however)
[03:00] <GiantNoob> anyone wana help me?
[03:01] <wizek> mrsno, why unfortunately?  O.o
[03:01] <GiantNoob> :(
[03:01] <scoobtits> what giant noob?
[03:01] <mrsno> wizek updating the bios of the motherboard is not for the faint of heart :-)
[03:01] <scoobtits> whats ur prob
[03:01] <BashBang> wizek : how did you make out with your install?

[03:01] <JBH> Skollie, It does in Amarok, and I can actually see the files, but when I try to play them, I get an error that it cannot play the files.  Gtkpod doesn't recognize the IPod at all
[03:02] <skollie> JBH: are you sure the files are not in the m4a format?
[03:02] <Mac1016> anyone have experience with the enlightenment window manager installed on ubuntu?  I pulled from the elbuntu repo designed for ubuntu but I can't play dvd's even though I installed the codecs under gnome?  Do I need to reinstall them?

[03:03] <wizek> mrsno, Can i update bios from Live cd? i don't have os installed
[03:03] <IdleOne> !best
[03:03] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[03:03] <kevinl--> GiantNoob: i prefer videolan . the command is vlc
[03:03] <JBH> Skollie:  I'm pretty sure they are .mp3 unless the IPod converted them during the import process.
[03:03] <wizek> BashBang, Didn't work...
[03:03] <wizek> BashBang, the same...
[03:03] <GiantNoob> kevinl--:  the command?
[03:03] <BashBang> wizek : sry to hear
[03:03] <skollie> JBH: what did you use to copy the files onto the ipod?
[03:03] <hamza> bashbang do u know a good network software that will manage my wireless network automatically..because i have to type sudo dhclient ra1 everytime i start
[03:03] <mrsno> wizek yes, http://www.hermann-uwe.de/blog/flashing-a-bios-the-linux-way-tm-using-flashrom should work from the livecd note: i haven't tried it myself
[03:03] <John`> how do you change screen resolution of vlc player using terminal?
[03:03] <nikitis> Anyone know the name of the keymapping program in linux that is used in terminal?
[03:04] <kevinl--> apt-get install videolan,  and apt-get install libdvdcss2
[03:04] <JBH> Skollie, originally ITunes from Windows XP
[03:04] <BashBang> hamza : network manager
[03:04] <kevinl--> you might need find a custom repository for libdvdcss2
[03:04] <x89x> can anyone help me ?
[03:04] <Torahteen> After trying to set up my wireless, I had no luck. Someone said to run iwconfig, so I did. Only 2 cards are shown, lo and eth0, both saying no wireless extensions. I was told that a 3rd card would show if it had worked. Any ideas as to what I might've done wrong?
[03:04] <nikitis> Anyone?
[03:04] <mneptok> JBH: iTunes encodes as AAC by default, not MP3
[03:04] <hamza> bashbang but thats already installed and its no good...doesnt connect to my wireless network automatically
[03:04] <kevinl--> which you can find by googling and add it to your /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:04] <wizek> mrsno, Did u have the same problem?
[03:05] <JBH> mneptok, is there a place to download that codecs?
[03:05] <dabaR> nikitis: maybe google has a table for you.
[03:05] <nikitis> dabaR, no luck
[03:05] <dabaR> nikitis: of hex ascii values
[03:05] <nikitis> yes
[03:05] <mrsno> wizek no i use amd64 but it was a _very_ common problem earlier in the year/last year with core 2 duo motherboards that use jmicron
[03:05] <mneptok> JBH: the option to install AAC/MP4 support should be offered when you double-click a file
[03:05] <GiantNoob> How do i get my dvd to work?
[03:05] <Torahteen> Does nobody know?
[03:05] <BashBang> hamza : did you go through the create new wireless network wizard?

[03:06] <unagi> anyone know any good 3d camera tracking programs for linux?
[03:06] <skollie> JBH: It should not have converted the files if they were originally in mp3 format. Can you copy mp3's from your HD to the ipod?
[03:06] <cm_raf> helo, I got a problem...I need to installl ubuntu-desktop, but I don't have internet, the only way to connect to internet is thru a browser, how can I install gnome in a PC without internet?
[03:06] <x89x> anyone can help ?
[03:06] <dabaR> nikitis: http://game-editor.com/tutorials/images/ascii.jpg how is that?
[03:06] <Torahteen> cm_raf, you can connect through a browser?
[03:06] <Torahteen> If so, you have internet, I'm not sure what the question is
[03:06] <hamza> bashbang no the network was visible already
[03:06] <kitche> cm_raf: well what did you use to install since it's on the install cd
[03:06] <JBH> Skollie, I can copy them down.  I have done so once before (it was a pain because there were not names to the files, only random letters), and they were mp3s
[03:06] <jrib> cm_raf: what disk do you have?
[03:06] <scoobtits> what's the command to switch disc if your installing through wine.
[03:07] <x89x> can anyone help me >>>>????
[03:07] <nikitis> dabaR, this program i'm reffering to is an active program that shows other values, I guess it's not hex
[03:07] <dabaR> !ask
[03:07] <BashBang> hamza : does the network manager applet start at boot?
[03:07] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:07] <mneptok> x89x: please stop repeating
[03:07] <kitche> scoobtits: you have to setup a var depedns on the installer though
[03:07] <hamza> bashbang yes it does
[03:07] <scoobtits> kitche, whats a var?
[03:07] <x89x> so why doesnt anyone help ? mneptok ?
[03:07] <nikitis> it maps keys other than just keyboard, and mouse.  It does things like joysticks too
[03:07] <dabaR> x89x: help with what?
[03:07] <JBH> Torahteen, what sort of wireless card do you hae?
[03:07] <JBH> have rather
[03:07] <mneptok> x89x: maybe no one knows the answer.
[03:07] <kitche> scoobtits: I know for UT2k4 you need a SETUP_CDROM var for your shell for it to noitce that there's more then one cd
[03:07] <cm_raf> Torahteen, no, I can't connect through a browser 'cause i don't have internet
[03:08] <x89x> i havent asked yet mneptok
[03:08] <x89x> i'll ask noy mneptok
[03:08] <dabaR> x89x: ask now
[03:08] <BashBang> hamza : do you have key ring manager installed?
[03:08] <skollie> JBH: most strange. Usually when amarok cannot play a file it has to do with unsupported formats and/or codecs not installed. In your case, this does not seem to be the problem, right?
[03:08] <cm_raf> kitche, jrib: I'm using Ubuntu server 7.04
[03:08] <hamza> bashbang no wats that
[03:08] <x89x> i have a /media folder with 10 GB free
[03:08] <dabaR> x89x: that was raelly cute.
[03:08] <Torahteen> JBH, I have a linksys USB Wireless-G USB Network Adapter with Speedboost
[03:08] <x89x> i cant copy anthing to it mneptok ?
[03:09] <JBH> Skollie, it would seem that it should play mp3, I just didn't know if there were some special case(s) for IPod.
[03:09] <x89x> says permission denied mneptok !
[03:09] <cm_raf> Torahteen, kitche, jrib: The only way to connect to internet is through browser, I'm in a hotel and they require an ID to allow access to internet...
[03:09] <Vsop_vsop> hey folks..
[03:09] <x89x> can i shift the space to a drive ?
[03:09] <mneptok> x89x: i don't help people that repeat. if you want my help, follow channel guidelines to get it.
[03:09] <W_McL> x89x, /media is a directory where other drives are mounted into
[03:09] <skollie> JBH: Nope. If it's mp3 and your ipod is correctly detected in amarok, there should be no problem
[03:09] <dabaR> x89x: do you know how to open a terminal?
[03:09] <BashBang> hamza : look in system/administration   see if it is there, your wireless ssid and pass words should be there under one pass word
[03:09] <kitche> cm_raf: you can't due much unless you have a desktop cd laying near you
[03:10] <x89x> ya dabaR
[03:10] <W_McL> it's ok that you don't have write permissions there
[03:10] <unagi> anyone here an animator or compositor?
[03:10] <JBH> Torahteen, have you looked at ndsiwrapper?  Many of the Linksys devices use a Broadcom 43xx chipset, although the USB part adds another dimension to your issue.
[03:10] <dabaR> x89x: open one, please. DO you know how to run commands?
[03:10] <x89x> some
[03:10] <Torahteen> JBH, I'm using ndiswrapper ATM
[03:10] <skollie> JBH: when you first tried to play mp3 in amarok, did it ask if you wanted to install additional codecs?
[03:10] <cm_raf> kitche: what can I do when I get a desktop CD?
[03:10] <John`> anyone here use vlc player?
[03:10] <x89x> dabaR. i want to shift the space
[03:10] <Torahteen> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=225206
[03:11] <JBH> Skollie, *sigh* I was afraid of that answer :-)
[03:11] <Torahteen> I'm using that tutorial
[03:11] <Vsop_vsop> have a ati radeon  X1400  looking for the ati cmd for the driver
[03:11] <kitche> cm_raf: you can make the cd act like a repo
[03:11] <scoobtits> vsop
[03:11] <hamza> bashbang my network doesnt have any password or ecryptions
[03:11] <dabaR> x89x: good, so you are familiar with the concept. So, please run sudo fdisk -l, and also run ls -ld /media, and ls -l /media
[03:11] <scoobtits> use the drive flgrx
[03:11] <logreeval> is "network-admin" the only network manager?
[03:11] <BashBang> hamza : it's wireless no?
[03:11] <hamza> yes
[03:11] <dabaR> x89x: once you get the output, please use a http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org page to post it to the Web, and give us a URL, we will read, and let you know what to do.
[03:11] <mongolai> anyone here use enlightenment DR17 aka e17?
[03:12] <John`> Vsop_vsop: try the open source driver first
[03:12] <JasonJ> how do i start xvnc server at startup?
[03:12] <skollie> JBH: see my subsequent question about installing additional codecs when first playing mp3's in amarok
[03:12] <Vsop_vsop> Scoobits :aok will that stop the flicker in of the screen when i move a page?? like the Rez is off
[03:12] <kitche> mongolai: I use it on and off

[03:12] <cm_raf> kitchie: how can I do that, can you help me, please?
[03:12] <mongolai> kitche, did you install with apt, or build from cvs?

[03:13] <Torahteen> Has anyone else been able to install a Linksys USB adapter and get it working?
[03:13] <JBH> Skollie, no it didn't

[03:13] <mongolai> kitche, ok thanks. I tried using some old e17 .debs, but nothing was really a go
[03:13] <hamza> bashbang i connect to a router
[03:13] <koisoooo> win4lin vs. vmware. what's faster and better?
[03:13] <Vsop_vsop> Scoobtits:  where do i get that?.. whats the entry?
[03:13] <kitche> mongolai: e17 is not in ubuntu and I know how to compile so I did it that way but there is a script on the forums to get e17 automaticallu installed and such
[03:13] <RoC_MasterMind> koisoooo, vmware is good.
[03:13] <skollie> JBH: which distro are you running?
[03:13] <BashBang> hamza : me too
[03:14] <JasonJ> vnc4server :1 yields "New 'linuxmce:1 (jason)' desktop is linuxmce:1" but i can't connect to it. wtf?
[03:14] <koisoooo> RoC_MasterMind im using vmware and it's working fine. i was just wondering if win4lin could be better
[03:14] <Nil_> I once connected to a WiFi network and now it's always connecting to that network in the first place, i always have to choose the network i want it to connect to after it connects to the first network
[03:14] <mongolai> kitche, yea, I think I saw that. I think I'll just go the old-fashioned way!
[03:14] <sdouble> what driver do you guys recommend for using an ati 9800 pro?
[03:14] <JBH> /tell trahteen sorry, I'm not much help there.  I ended up having to use a hack of sorts for my Broadcom 43xx chipset with native-hacked drivers.  Ndiswrapper wouldn't work for me.
[03:15] <JBH> Skollie, Feisty

[03:15] <skollie> JBH - just a sec
[03:15] <JasonJ> does anyone know how to use vnc?
[03:15] <BashBang> hamza : you can do it the harder way
[03:15] <JBH> lol, I mixed up my WoW syntax
[03:15] <x89x> dabaR
[03:15] <x89x> you there
[03:15] <W_McL> x89x, can you also post the output of the command mount?
[03:15] <x89x> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30173/
[03:16] <hamza> bashbang wats that
[03:16] <JBH> /skollie Ok
[03:16] <skollie> JBH: do you have libxine1-ffmpeg installed?
[03:16] <sdouble> haha, /tell
[03:16] <x89x> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30174/ W_McL
[03:16] <dabaR> x89x: which exact /media directory has that free space?
[03:16] <chris__> anyone experienced a weird bug with feisty install, now every window title bar has a 'o' on the left hand side? any direction on how to fix?
[03:17] <dabaR> chris__: does it look like it is missing the icons?
[03:17] <Vsop_vsop> how do i get the driver for flgrx.. whats teh cmd?
[03:17] <JasonJ> what command do i send by ssh to log in on the gui?
[03:17] <x89x> hda6 with 26 GB
[03:17] <JBH> Skollie, I do now
[03:17] <x89x> and .media itself with 10 GB
[03:17] <jrib> chris__: are you using xfce (xubuntu)?
[03:17] <JBH> Skollie, but I didn't when you asked
[03:17] <BashBang> hamza : you can put what you enter every time you boot into a shell script, and put it into /etc/init.d. This way it should start every time you boot your comp
[03:17] <W_McL> x89x, it looks like there is noo need to shift any space. you only have one linux partition and the space displayed in /media is the free spache you get on all directories on this partition
[03:17] <dabaR> JasonJ: to be able to open GUI programs, use the -Y or -X option for ssh
[03:17] <skollie> JBH: and does it work now?
[03:17] <sdouble> Vsop_vsop: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules
[03:17] <chris__> dabaR: icon is there, just a 'o' next to it.
[03:18] <sdouble> but there is more to it
[03:18] <Vsop_vsop> did that..
[03:18] <W_McL> x89x, go into your home directory and have a look if there's the same amount of free space
[03:18] <JBH> I'll have to check (I don't have the Ipod connected).  What does that lib do?
[03:18] <JasonJ> okay so what do i type to make the machine log in locally?
[03:18] <hamza> bashbang so how do i do that
[03:18] <jrib> cm_raf: download the alternate cd, burn it (or mount the iso I guess), and then use apt-cdrom to add it as a repo
[03:18] <jrib> !alternate > cm_raf (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:18] <skollie> JBH: it installs all the necessary codecs for a range of audio and video formats
[03:18] <sdouble> Vsop_vsop: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide
[03:18] <x89x> yes W_McL
[03:18] <unagi> any way to convert .flv to .mov on linux?
[03:18] <x89x> theres the same amount of space
[03:19] <JBH> Skollie: Good info.  Thanks!
[03:19] <dabaR> x89x: /media itself? I do not think that directory can have free space, because it is a directory, and not a mount p oint.
[03:19] <BashBang> hamza : I'll start it off for you in a paste bin
[03:19] <j-dub> yo
[03:19] <BashBang> hamza : give me a min
[03:19] <dabaR> x89x: try running df -h.
[03:19] <hamza> bashbang ok thankx
[03:19] <skollie> JBH: if playing mp3's from your ipod does not work after installing libxine1-ffmpeg, it is not a codecs problem
