[08:45] <NeXtDaY> kjw75: yes.. Ican write normally in text files.. the same with abiword.. but the only problem is with filenames.. for example: f i l e n a m e <-- a space between each letter.. not in english. in my language
[08:45] <blankrider> i cant md5sum in cmd line
[08:45] <blankrider> o.o
[08:45] <blankrider> it says its not recognized command
[08:45] <blankrider> md5sum ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso
[08:45] <RoC_MasterMind> blankrider, md5sum is part of the md5sum package I think
[08:45] <RoC_MasterMind> !md5sum
[08:45] <ubotu> To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more
[08:45] <RoC_MasterMind> !info md5sum
[08:45] <ubotu> Package md5sum does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[08:46] <blankrider> im on windows
[08:46] <RoC_MasterMind> Oh
[08:46] <RoC_MasterMind> That's why
[08:46] <blankrider> i cant run linux
[08:46] <ProN00b> blankrider, search for md5sum.exe
[08:46] <RoC_MasterMind> Microsoft does not consider that important
[08:46] <blankrider> THATS MY PROBLEM
[08:46] <blankrider> i cant install it
[08:46] <RoC_MasterMind> THere are many md5sum utilities
[08:46] <blankrider> ugh
[08:46] <jrib> !enter | blankrider

[08:46] <sperotek> is there any way to add users so they all have the same desktop and theme and all? Some way to automate creation of users since I have to add a few hundred?
[08:46] <blankrider> chill out o.o
[08:47] <RoC_MasterMind> I like hashcalc.  It can create hashes for many algorithms and is GUI. http://www.slavasoft.com/hashcalc/index.htm
[08:47] <jrib> blankrider: click on "md5sum on windows" at the top of the link I sent you
[08:47] <NeXtDaY> any help please?
[08:47] <RoC_MasterMind> sperotek, yes...this is called a skeleton profile...the system skeleton profile is stored in /etc/skel/  Anything in there is copied to a new user's home directory upon user creation.
[08:47] <kjw75> NeXtDaY what language?
[08:47] <blankrider> yay more stuff to dl o.o
[08:48] <NeXtDaY> kjw75 arabic
[08:48] <ProN00b> blankrider, you can download it here http://www.etree.org/md5com.html
[08:48] <rrivasdiaz> I have a problem with gnome-vfs and I need help. I have defined some ssh connections to remote servers using "Connect to Server...". For some servers the connection is done right. But for others a get an error dialog saying "Timeout reached".
[08:48] <rrivasdiaz> Can anybody helpme to solve it? the server is ok (I can connect from the console)
[08:48] <ulaas> NeXtDaY, ya selam..
[08:49] <NeXtDaY> ulaas :). kifak/kifek?
[08:49] <blankrider> ok im working on it now
[08:49] <ulaas> NeXtDaY, no idea man. just turkish :)
[08:49] <frojnd> I have PCIsoft v92 modem (DIAL-UP) how can I know if this modem is supported by packages of ubuntu and if I need to download some other packages before and than later install in on dial-up maschine?? can someone help me on this one ?
[08:49] <sperotek> RoC_MasterMind: Would that include things like FireFox plugins?
[08:50] <mapez> is there a way to check my network traffic in the terminal?
[08:50] <NeXtDaY> ulaas: No problem. was saying: hows it going?:)
[08:50] <RoC_MasterMind> sperotek, sure.  If you like, you can copy a person's already setup profile to /etc/skel/
[08:50] <ulaas> NeXtDaY, thanx... too hot. other than that , fine
[08:51] <kjw75> NeXtDaY sorry I don't know
[08:51] <orn> #qt
[08:52] <sperotek> RoC_MasterMind: so I would make an "image" user, and then just cp the home folder to the skel folder?
[08:52] <ulaas> NeXtDaY, by the way did you try to change the font?
[08:52] <NeXtDaY> kjw75 no problem. thanks anyway
[08:53] <NeXtDaY> ulaas: nope. am new to ubuntu,
[08:53] <hendrixski> apt-get tries to install a package whose post-install it can't run... I tried dpkg --configure -a and apt-get -f install and a few other thigns and it still shows up!  Is there a way to get apt to just stop calling it?
[08:53] <click> #!usr/bin/python
[08:53] <Libertine> wow big $chan
[08:53] <RoC_MasterMind> yes.  sperotek anything inside /etc/skel/ would be copied to the user's homedirectory as is and then they would be given ownership of it.  Just make sure you don't copy their home directory itself to the skel folder...like /etc/skel/image/..but rather the files inside their home directory.
[08:53] <click> how do i execute such script ?
[08:53] <click> #!usr/bin/python
[08:53] <click> ?
[08:53] <ulaas> NeXtDaY, try changing font settings from themes.
[08:53] <NeXtDaY> ulaas: ok hold on plz...
[08:53] <MrOtacon> hey guys, how do i add my windows partition (hda3) to grub and also display the grub list by default at boot?
[08:54] <RoC_MasterMind> sperotek, cp -R /home/image/* /etc/skel/               I think that would do it.
[08:54] <hendrixski> click, you want to execute a python script?  just type in python and the name of the script :-)
[08:54] <click> i wanna create it .. what the extension should be ?
[08:55] <georgy28> Mr_Pan, : /boot/grub/menu.lst is the file to change
[08:55] <taime1> how do you release and renew your ip when you are plugged directly into a cable modem?
[08:55] <MrOtacon> click: py
[08:55] <kjw75> can I download apt-get packages off the Internet in windows, so that I can install them in linux, if so, where can I find them?
[08:56] <sperotek> RoC_Mastermind: Great, that should let me keep all the settings, thanks
[08:56] <hendrixski> click, oh... umm ... that shoul be in a manual.  :-) www.python.org has a few
[08:56] <georgy28> MrOtacon :  /boot/grub/menu.lst is the file to change Sorry Mr PAN
[08:56] <ghee> hey guys, sorry for the newbie question, but having loads of trouble partitioning M$ vista.  the native partitioner won't shrink the 80G hard drive more than 6G and gparted says to run chkdsk (which i did).  any advice?
[08:56] <Libertine> How can I use Ubuntu to get information about my motherboard?
[08:56] <hateee> [14:50]  <hateee> hey, what's the diff between productions and records?
[08:56] <hateee> [14:51]  <hateee> for example, Asshole Productions and Asshole Records
[08:56] <hateee> anyone know?
[08:56] <preaction> taime1: dhclient eth0 (or whatever your network interface is)
[08:57] <taime1> okay
[08:57] <hendrixski> help! apt-get tries to install a package whose post-install it can't run... I tried dpkg --configure -a and apt-get -f install and a few other things and it still shows up!  Is there a way to get apt to just stop calling it?
[08:57] <preaction> taime1: looks like you'll need to do it as sudo as well. and just "sudo dhclient" seems to work
[08:58] <paroxysm> what's the command that "Document Viewer" uses to open files?
[08:58] <NeosVortex> Hey I have a quick question, is there a way to connect to a windows share using Ubuntu Server?
[08:58] <preaction> !samba | NeosVortex
[08:58] <ubotu> NeosVortex: 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
[08:59] <NeosVortex> preaction: I knew about samba, can i use it on a CLI Server though?>
[08:59] <MrOtacon> georgy28: Ok - Thanks
[08:59] <NeXtDaY> hmm, can anyone help me please?
[08:59] <preaction> NeosVortex: why not?
[08:59] <hateee> [14:50]  <hateee> hey, what's the diff between productions and records?
[08:59] <hateee> [14:51]  <hateee> for example, Asshole Productions and Asshole Records
[08:59] <sebforgold> strange nextday, have the same question =)
[08:59] <preaction> !ohmy | hateee
[08:59] <ubotu> hateee: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:59] <NeosVortex> I've mostly used it with gui and wasn't sure if i could use it with cli preaction thanks though!
[08:59] <Pici> !offtopic | hateee
[08:59] <ubotu> hateee: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:00] <preaction> NeosVortex: smb_client and mount smbfs will be what you want probably
[09:00] <NeXtDaY> sebforgold , heh.. i asked my question three times now and yet no one is able to help :-(
[09:00] <hendrixski> hateee, what the hell??
[09:00] <Libertine-`-> how do i use ubuntu to find out info about my motherboard please?
[09:00] <NeosVortex> thanks preaction
[09:00] <sn-> Libertine-`- you can use lspci or lsusb at the terminal
[09:00] <sn-> or in gnome there is a device-manager style app that lists as well
[09:00] <Libertine-`-> thanks
[09:00] <sn-> np
[09:01] <Libertine-`-> sn-
[09:01] <Libertine-`-> what is your typing speed approximately?
[09:01] <sn-> varies :)
[09:01] <Libertine-`-> between?
[09:01] <stinger05> is there any program or plugins for windows xp that would give it the 3d/wobble effects like compiz which comes with new linux systems ?
[09:01] <taime1> sudo dhclient will renew my ip?
[09:01] <Synapsi> is there anybody that can tell me if the "hidden SSID" bug has been solved?
[09:01] <sn-> i haven't tested it in many years Libertine-`-
[09:01] <sebforgold> yes @ taimel
[09:01] <sn-> its all down to my daskeyboard, lovely to type on :-)
[09:01] <hendrixski> stinger05, yes... but it costs a lot
[09:01] <Libertine-`-> aww come on
[09:01] <NeosVortex> stinger05: I know there is a 3d cube program that was free
[09:01] <Libertine-`-> daskeyboard? :0
[09:02] <taime1> thanks
[09:02] <sn-> www.daskeyboard.com
[09:02] <Woodrag> Ik keep getting: child pid 11752 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) running Apache2+php5 on Dapper Drake... Googled it but no solution.... ;-(
[09:02] <sn-> cost a bit, but im constantly typing everyday so suits me well
[09:02] <preaction> taime1: it will renew the lease on your IP, it might not change your IP address at all though. it all depends on the dhcp server that your ISP is running
[09:02] <mcampbell> Is there a way to have programs run as different users have different colored window decoration?
[09:02] <Libertine-`-> ah i see
[09:02] <Libertine-`-> very nice idea
[09:02] <Libertine-`-> having a blank keyabord
[09:02] <NeXtDaY> again:  i need help please, i can't write any filename within my language. a space will appear between each letter?sorry for repeating
[09:02] <stinger05> whats the name of the paid one ?
[09:03] <Libertine-`-> keyboard
[09:03] <Libertine-`-> ^^
[09:03] <sn-> why should you need to look at your keys :p
[09:03] <sn-> anyways this is a bit off topic :-)
[09:03] <hendrixski> stinger05, I totally forgot but I'm googling it... I'll get you the name of it in a second
[09:03] <stinger05> ok thx dude :D
[09:03] <osxdude|palmTX> What is your language, NeXtDaY?
[09:03] <sebforgold> someone know how its possible to change the style from ubuntu to http://www.gnome-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre2/60804-2.jpg that? (dockbar?, menu?, icons?)
[09:04] <NeXtDaY> osxdude|palmTX: It is arabic
[09:04] <Krusnix>  Hello there, any help would be appreciated. This morning beryl crashed on me while I was creating a background for the skydome. With the crash the lower half of the screen went black... It still functions (when I move my mouse over the lower left corner as I am doing now I can see that I can resize my maximized firefox window except I can't see the lower half.
[09:04] <Krusnix> I un-installed beryl using purge, and autoremove
[09:04] <Krusnix> The problem has still persisted
[09:04] <Krusnix> I've got an x800 ati card, so I dont think it has anything to do with the nvidia bug
[09:04] <georgy28> sebforgold,: it's a mac under linux, so will be difficult
[09:05] <osxdude|palmTX> I NeXtDaY: I think you should go to the  arab ubuntu channel if there is one.
[09:05] <osxdude|palmTX> !ar
[09:05] <Synapsi> how can I let my network manager see a wireless hidden SSID network?
[09:05] <NeXtDaY> osxdude|palmTX: yep, there is one but dead one actually
[09:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ar - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:05] <stefg> Krusnix: beryl support in #beryl or #ubuntu-effects
[09:05] <Krusnix> Well this has nothing to do with beryl now
[09:05] <Krusnix> Beryl is -gone- from my system
[09:06] <delcoyote> bye bye Beryl
[09:06] <NeXtDaY> lol
[09:06] <osxdude|palmTX> NeXtDaY: How many people?
[09:06] <Krusnix> Indeed, until it's more reliable I refuse to use it
[09:06] <hendrixski> stinger05, I think it was called winstep.
[09:06] <sebforgold> georgy28, so its not just themes, icons and so on? =)
[09:06] <Krusnix> This is the 3rd time this has happened, and I'm not going to wipe it again.
[09:06] <stinger05> oh ok
[09:06] <Woodrag> Ik keep getting: child pid 11752 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) running Apache2+php5 on Dapper Drake... Googled it but no solution.... ;-(
[09:06] <Krusnix> Thank though
[09:06] <stinger05> how much does it cost?
[09:06] <systest> Anyone here successfully instantiated a tun/tap device? If so, what did you need to do besides load the tun module?
[09:06] <NeXtDaY> osxdude|palmTX: onle me :P
[09:06] <pavs> <IP_ADDRESS>/255
[09:06] <georgy28> sebforgold : no theme, and so one
[09:07] <ryan8403> krusnix: did you try rebooting?
[09:07] <sebforgold> georgy28, .. :( okay but thx 4 help :D
[09:07] <stefg> Krusnix: you might have to reconfigure the xserver (sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg)
[09:07] <imbecile> hey guys, I just wanted to thank all you guys for being so helpful.. ubuntu support is freaking awesome.. keep up the good work
[09:07] <Synapsi> how to let ubuntu network manager see an hidden wireless network?
[09:07] <magnetron> where do i set my date format? the evolution calendar in the upper corner has a funny order of the date/time. i would like to set it to ISO 8601 mode.
[09:07] <georgy28> sebforgold, : np
[09:07] <hendrixski> stinger05, I remember seeing videos a long time ago about making windows wobble on windows...and giving it animated icons and animated backgrounds... and I think it's winstep... I may be wrong
[09:07] <osxdude|palmTX> NeXtDaY: Any bots?
[09:07] <hendrixski> stinger05, it was like $100 or so I think
[09:07] <sn-> imbecile those comments make it worthwhile ;]
[09:07] <NeXtDaY> osxdude|palmTX: nope, #ubuntu-sa
[09:07] <stinger05> wow, thats quite expensive
[09:08] <Krusnix> Yes, I have rebooted ryan the problem likes to annoy me :P
[09:08] <hendrixski> Synapsi, I think if it's hidden then it's hidden.... my friend has a hidden network.... because he can't get WPA to work
[09:08] <Krusnix> I'll try that right now stefh
[09:08] <zorglu_> q. i installed feisty 3days ago, before i add edgy, now i got firefox crashing quite a lot when playing flash video, is this a known issue ?
[09:08] <Krusnix> *stefg
[09:08] <magnetron> Synapsi: you have to edit the info manually
[09:08] <osxdude|palmTX> not even a bot.
[09:09] <hendrixski> stinger05, there may be like basic packages that don't doo all of the effects... i dunno... why bother... if you like proprietary software then get a Mac... ikf you like customizing stuff then Ubuntu does it all
[09:09] <magnetron> !offtopic
[09:09] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!

[09:09] <Woodrag> my apache2 keeps on crashing on Dapper Drake... Segmentation Fault(11)... Is this a know issue?
[09:09] <NeXtDaY> osxdude|palmTX: yes, but the problem is not how install arabic, i can write within it in text files and abiword just fine.. the only problem is with *filenames*

[09:10] <djr> can anyone tell me what version of gnome is in the current ubuntu?
[09:11] <Primus^^> hey, there is anyway I can configure Pidgin? like enable esc key etc...

[09:11] <Mongoose> 2.18.1
[09:11] <ctkroeker> every time I try to boot on this one machine, I get an initramfs error
[09:11] <magnetron> was that a  netsplit or a dcc?
[09:11] <hendrixski> Synapsi, if it's hidden but you know the name then you can access it through the manual config... like magnetron said... but if you want to look for hidden networks... i don't know that you can
[09:11] <Primus^^> /server -m irc.ubuntu.com

[09:12] <stinger05> hendrixski: but ubuntu doesnt run all my programs including games, voice convos, and all sorts of stuff...
[09:12] <leku> i was wondering if I already have windows installed on my other drive
[09:12] <Mongoose> NeXtDaY: I mean the variable
[09:12] <magnetron> hendrixski, Synapsi: you could use kismet to scan for hidden wlans
[09:12] <durty> i'm trying to install php and mysql
[09:12] <leku> can I use crossover to run outlook that is already installed?
[09:12] <durty> how do i do that
[09:12] <Mongoose> NeXtDaY: can I count on it to be set?
[09:12] <leku> or do I have to install it from scratch again?
[09:12] <ctkroeker> every time I try to boot on this one machine, I get an initramfs error, I already tried using diff RAM modules, no go
[09:12] <NeXtDaY> Mongoose oops, sorry no idea :)

[09:13] <ctkroeker> I{m booting from an ubuntu live cd, although it does this with any linux cd i try
[09:13] <zorglu_> jrib: what is this bug you talk about ?
[09:13] <stefg> !dcc
[09:13] <ubotu> There are people around who think it is funny to abuse a bug in certain routers by sending invalid DCC commands. When bitten by this bug ops in #ubuntu remove users so they are no longer targets. To fix it have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit
[09:13] <hendrixski> stinger05, I've been using only ubuntu for a year now and it does all that I need, for home and business... though, I don't play games.. so yeah.. you probably need windows for that
[09:13] <primus^^^> !pidgin
[09:13] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[09:14] <Krusnix> Stefg, what shall I do upon entering the Configuring-xorg screen?

[09:14] <hendrixski> stefg, ah, thanks for having ubotu explain that one :-)
[09:14] <imbecile> stefg,  you need to change port you use for server to fix it correct?
[09:14] <durty> i'm trying to install php and mysql jpw dp o dp ot
[09:14] <Upsal> apt-get says that i have to insert data into /cdrom/, but i have no cd-drive, and i want to use a mounted ISO image, how can i do that?
[09:14] <magnetron> !lamp | durty
[09:14] <ubotu> durty: 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.

[09:14] <hendrixski> help! apt-get tries to install a package whose post-install it can't run... I tried dpkg --configure -a and apt-get -f install and a few other things and it still shows up!  Is there a way to get apt to just stop calling it?
[09:14] <madcreatio1> :-P
[09:15] <stefg> imbecile: that's not a fix, just a workaround. better update the firmware with a proper one
[09:15] <someone2005> can anyone tell me the current kernel version thats running in ubuntu 7.04 ?
[09:15] <magnetron> !info linux

[09:16] <ctkroeker> booting any linux live cd gets me an initramfs error. I already tried using diff RAM modules... any ideas?
[09:16] <someone2005> thanks thought was that 2.6.15 ? gone up some...
[09:16] <hendrixski> someone2005, you can tell yourself... type in uname -i into a terminal
[09:16] <hendrixski> err,,,, uname -a
[09:17] <someone2005> ok...
[09:17] <hendrixski> for example  for me it's   2.6.20-16-lowlatency
[09:18] <Steffke> hab mal ne frage: wieso geht mein ton nicht?
[09:18] <Stormx2> hendrixski: What's the advantae of a lowlatency kernel?
[09:18] <stinger05> hendrixski: do you recommend me to use just ubuntu, would linux mint do the job ?

[09:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu-de - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:18] <magnetron> where do i set my date format? the evolution calendar in the upper corner has a funny order of the date/time. i would like to set it to ISO 8601 mode.
[09:18] <hendrixski> Stormx2, it's good if you want to do stuff with midi.. other than that.. I think it just eats my battery faster :-(

[09:18] <magnetron> !de > georgy28    (see private msg from ubotu)
[09:18] <Stormx2> hendrixski: Maybe it will fix my recording woes :)
[09:18] <georgy28> mrigns, : thanks
[09:19] <someone2005> yup get 2.6.20-16-generic
[09:19] <hendrixski> stinger05, I'm not familiar with Linux Mint to give you an oppinion
[09:19] <dxdemetriou> ubotu, is still missing the linux-backports-modules-2.6.20-16-generic
[09:19] <hendrixski> Stormx2, it may be helpful... also if you don't have enough ram you'll have recording woes no matter what the latency of your kernel is
[09:19] <Stormx2> hendrixski: 768mb, it's enough under windows.
[09:20] <hendrixski> Stormx2, ok, yeah. that's plenty
[09:20] <magnetron> stinger05: i would recommend ubuntu, it is slimmer but will still be able to install all packages. plus with ubuntu, you can get support hee
[09:20] <magnetron> *here
[09:20] <Stormx2> hendrixski: Probably my oldish soundcard, but we'll see.
[09:21] <hendrixski> Stormx2, oh yeah... having a good sound card helps too... :-)  but there aren't that many "bad" cards... unless you have it built into the motherboard... those can be crappy
[09:21] <Stormx2> Nope, its an oldish soundblaster.
[09:21] <stinger05> i loved ubuntu, especially feisty, but the only problem with it is that u need an internet connection to download the plugins for mp3/video/dvd movies and all other things...
[09:21] <Krusnix> I guess nobody knows enough to help my problem -.-
[09:21] <Stormx2> I've had issues with jokosher and stuff, even after a clean install.
[09:21] <NeXtDaY> stinger05: i agree with u :)
[09:22] <Woodrag> my apache2 keeps on crashing on Dapper Drake... Segmentation Fault(11)... Is this a know issue?
[09:22] <osxdude|palmTX> hendrixski: that happens to me too.
[09:22] <Stormx2> stinger05: That's right, it's part of ubuntu's ethos.
[09:22] <hendrixski> stinger05, no you don't... go to ondisk.com and you can get a CD of all the stuff on the repositories
[09:22] <dxdemetriou> is still missing the linux-backports-modules-2.6.20-16-generic?
[09:22] <hendrixski> osxdude|palmTX, lol... probably to a lot of us :-)

[09:24] <M3G4crux> hi to all
[09:24] <Barber> Hello can some one help
[09:24] <Stormx2> gnomefreak: Is it worth your time to do this sort of thing? I hesitated.
[09:25] <Barber> What is a good pcmcia Wireless lan card for linux
[09:25] <M3G4crux> Why is it that I can not install any apache2 package
[09:25] <Barber> some thing cheap
[09:25] <hendrixski> stinger05, ondisk can send you a bunch of CD's or DVD's through the mail... I know the lady who owns the company.  There's a big market for people without fast internet connections who need acess to the repos
[09:25] <magnetron> !hardware > Barber   (read private message from ubotu)
[09:25] <M3G4crux> it complains about my apache version, I installed the version prior to upgrading to Edgy
[09:25] <someone2005> seem to be set already... Any Ideas ?
[09:25] <gheeg> hey all, sorry for the M$ ? but trying to install feisty on a friend's machine and gparted fails and the native vista partitioner can't resize more than 6GB.  any ideas
[09:25] <gnomefreak> Stormx2: its being handled

[09:25] <MIMB1> Hello.  I've installed ubuntu server 7.04 onto my server, and I can't figure out how to make it register it's own address on our local (microsoft) dns server.  I could do it if I used dhclient, but I want this one static.
[09:25] <zenix> is it even possible to install Qt4 without KDE4?
[09:25] <hendrixski> stinger05, then you replace the address of the online repos with the address of the CD drive  :-)
[09:25] <Barber> thanks all
[09:26] <hendrixski> zenix, yep
[09:26] <pike_> Barber: the atheros cards are well supported. id recommend one with an external antenna port too
[09:26] <zenix> hendrixski: i would like to know how ;)
[09:26] <pike_> Barber: cisco etc
[09:26] <hendrixski> zenix, just apt-cache search qt4 and find the qt4 tools that you want to install
[09:26] <stinger05> well can't i just download the repos and put them all on a cd manually?
[09:26] <Gnea> Barber: linksys makes some very nice and affordable pcmcia cards
[09:26] <stinger05> i mean is there a website which provides this ?
[09:26] <hendrixski> zenix, in fact... KDE still uses Qt3 as far as I know (not scheduled to adopt qt4 'till KDE4)
[09:26] <zenix> hm, but that only returns the qt4-core and base libraries for KDE4 development
[09:26] <someone2005> I'd say yes ...
[09:26] <zenix> hendrixski: that's correct
[09:27] <sampbar> Hi GazzaK
[09:27] <zenix> i would like to start making Qt4 apps in Ruby though ;)
[09:27] <sperotek> It seems there is no way to uninstall stuff like bittorrent because it is part of Gnome Desktop, is there any way to disable it
[09:27] <bean-oh> anyone running gibbon yet? worth running?

[09:27] <fuzzy_logic> hi people.. i just installed apache2 on my computer to test php files and stuff.. but when i type apache2 in the terminal it gives me the following error: apache2: Syntax error on line 189 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Could not open configuration file /etc/apache2/httpd.conf: No such file or directory
[09:27] <Barber> Thanks Bunches
[09:27] <fuzzy_logic> can anyone help me??
[09:27] <sperotek> yes but this is for student accounts
[09:28] <Stormx2> fuzzy_logic: You don't start apache2 via terminal. Have you followed the wiki page, and installed from the repos?
[09:28] <someone2005> brb...
[09:28] <zenix> fuzzy_logic: just do "sudo touch /etc/apache2/httpd.conf"
[09:28] <Gnea> fuzzy_logic: you need to type the entire path out: /etc/init.d/apache2
[09:28] <fomrica> ["DCC SEND CHRIST_IS_AN_EMACS USER"]
[09:28] <zenix> (minus quotes)
[09:28] <Stormx2> zenix: That file should already exist in a default apache2 install.
[09:28] <zenix> it should
[09:28] <Gnea> fuzzy_logic: er, sudo /etc/init.d/apache2
[09:28] <zenix> but apparently something went awry
[09:28] <hendrixski> zenix, ::shrug:: I use qt3... and for that I use the qt3-mt package... but I don't see a qt4-mt package

[09:29] <hendrixski> zenix, good luck :-)
[09:29] <fuzzy_logic> Stormx2+zenix+Gnea: i installed it from the repos and first tried it with init.d, but it doesn't give me any output when i try to start, stop or ask for the status..
[09:29] <hendrixski> alrighty... let's see if someone can answer my question:
[09:29] <Stormx2> fuzzy_logic: Very odd.
[09:30] <fuzzy_logic> Stormx2: indeed..
[09:30] <Gnea> fuzzy_logic: are you sure it's not running already?
[09:30] <hendrixski> help! apt-get tries to install a package whose post-install it can't run... I tried dpkg --configure -a and apt-get -f install and a few other things and it still shows up!  Is there a way to get apt to just stop calling it?
[09:30] <fuzzy_logic> Gnea: as i said.. i can't get any output of the status..
[09:30] <zenix> hendrixski: i ran into this problem before
[09:30] <someone2005> The reason I can open the Lib would be because the Libs linked to a shared ? would that be correct ?
[09:30] <fuzzy_logic> Gnea: it just jumps to the next terminal line
[09:30] <Hultiz> I was watching a movie, paused it and started another and now my entire system is muted! It doesn't make any sounds at all, tried restarting but nothing changed.
[09:30] <osxdude|palmTX> hendrixski: cnt undersnd u
[09:31] <zenix> you have to modify the file containing the list of broken packages
[09:31] <hendrixski> zenix, did you have any solution for it?
[09:31] <Airforce5555> @chuck
[09:31] <Gnea> fuzzy_logic: and as I said, are you sure that it's not running already?  use this command:  ps axf | grep apache  or ps axf | grep httpd
[09:31] <zenix> i forgot where it is
[09:31] <stinger05> does anyone know how to download all the ubuntu repos manually in one folder and set them up on a cd ?

[09:31] <hendrixski> osxdude|palmTX,  when I run apt-get it tries to install stuff that it couldn't install previously... normally you fix this by running dpkg --configure -a and apt-get -f install ... but that's not doing it
[09:31] <Gnea> stinger05: yes, download the ISO files

[09:34] <Stormx2> ShackJack: He's serious. This isn't a PG channel.
[09:34] <Gnea> fuzzy_logic: no, make sure that the correct .conf file exists that it's looking for
[09:35] <dsl368> where can i get finch then?:)
[09:35] <Gnea> fuzzy_logic: and assume nothing.
[09:35] <Stormx2> dsl368: Is finch to do with pidgin?
[09:35] <hendrixski> @lart ShackJack
[09:35] <gman_> hey guys
[09:35] <fuzzy_logic> Gnea: lol
[09:35] <sn-> hendrixski that looks similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbus/+bug/25931 (and its duplicates)
[09:35] <ompaul> hendrixski, not here thanks - the bot does not reply to same - it has been told not to
[09:35] <mon^rch> what's the command to take ownership of a dir and all it's files?
[09:35] <fuzzy_logic> Gnea: so what you are suggesting is that i rename the file to httpd.conf?? i just did that.. and nothing happened
[09:35] <fuzzy_logic> its still the same
[09:36] <hendrixski> ompaul, oh... lol .. was worth a try
[09:36] <Gnea> fuzzy_logic: what exactly are you typing that makes it stay 'the same'?
[09:36] <pequatre> hi. can someone help me with a Deskbar annoyance: the d*mn applet won't behave correctly: i set the  "web search " extension to only display the main search engine yet the moron displays _all_ the search engines...
[09:36] <hendrixski> sn-, yup, except mine doesn't happen on the regular system so there is no HAL worries... it's on a chroot
[09:36] <ompaul> mon^rch, sudo chown -R $username:$username /directory/* or .* but .* is usually bad
[09:36] <M3G4crux> how can I force apt-get to stop complaining about versions, etc.
[09:36] <sn-> hendrixski hmm, can you tell us more about the problem, did it just start happening or ?
[09:37] <fuzzy_logic> Gnea: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start (or restart, stop, status), and then it doesn't give me any output, just jumps to the next line
[09:37] <bean-oh> anyone running gibbon yet? worth running?
[09:37] <Gnea> fuzzy_logic: there's no need to rename anything, you should just make a symbolic link
[09:37] <ferronica> hi all
[09:37] <fuzzy_logic> Gnea: how do i do that?
[09:37] <M3G4crux> I mean, install a package forcing it through dpkg --force-all and then when running apt-get upgrade and so on not having to uninstall it again
[09:37] <dc2448> Guys - I can't boot looks like my disk is fried  - booting off a live cd has let me see the following - anyone got any bright ideas? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/27661/
[09:37] <ferronica> can i use KDE applications on GNOME ?
[09:37] <hendrixski> sn-, it started when I tried to install vim-gnome... and it loaded a bunch of modules that it just plain old can't configure
[09:37] <sn-> bean-oh yes, testing, its not advised to use it as a proper system unless you enjoy seeing things break
[09:37] <pike_> ferronica: yeah
[09:37] <sn-> for me its been ok thus far, but use at your own risk :)
[09:37] <fuzzy_logic> ferronica: yes

[09:37] <dejx> Hello
[09:37] <ferronica> pike: any crash
[09:38] <ShackJack> ferronica: They may take a little longer to load, cause of extra KDE libs, but they work fine (although don't match your GNOME quite as good ;))
[09:38] <dejx> I have a small problem with X windows, everything works ok with root, but with normal users, its all foo
[09:38] <pike_> ferronica: no it will pull down some kde libs but it does that automatically. most people use k3b for instance to burn cds
[09:38] <sn-> hendrixski sorry i cant think of anything, hopefully someone else can help
[09:38] <dejx> Its takes few minuts to load X with normal user, but with root few secunds, same with programs
[09:38] <dejx> What to do?
[09:39] <fuzzy_logic> Gnea: thanks, but i know what a terminal is and how i can use it.. but how do i make a symbolic link??
[09:39] <hendrixski> sn-, k.. I'll take a look at that bug report again though... because before I just dismissed it as "not my bug" ... but I see that there are some workarounds on it ... maybe I'll have luck with it

[09:46] <DarkRamon> can someone please help me... Im trying to reinstall mysql-server and it is not letting me.... http://www.mirc.net/paste/?1365
[09:46] <Gnea> dejx: sounds like you have an NFS problem.  the hostname of the computer should map to the local IP address on the network, not the localhost.
[09:46] <hendrixski> sn-, do you know any other apt-get commands for these kinds of situations?  like how to configure apt under the hood?
[09:46] <osxdude|palmTX> raul: Run it n Terminal

[09:51] <andrewww> Hey i had a quick question,..whenever i record my desktop with recordmydesktop...the out.ogg file never plays in VLC player or any player in that matter...I have the w32 codecs, and i dont understand why it wont play.  Any ideas on how to fix this?
[09:51] <taa> is it possible to install launchpas locally like gforge for exemple ?
[09:51] <r00723r0> hi
[09:51] <Wonderboy> What is the easiest way to upgrade to the newest version of Gnome?
[09:51] <Stormx2> andrewww: The video is ogg theora.
[09:52] <scorp123> andrewww: ogg codec missing? It has nothing to do with w32codecs .... ogg-vorbis is a free standard.

[09:52] <mzanfardino> I have recently built from package dmraid (so that I may install ubuntu on a software RAID array).  I successfully ran ./configure and ./make.  Now I want a .udeb file.  When I run ./make install this (of course) installs dmraid, but I need the .udeb file to take to my machine which will be built with the array.  Can someone please tell me if there is a step I might be missing in order to create the udeb file?
[09:52] <andrewww> Ok, so what codecs would i need to view my own output file?
[09:52] <ctkroeker> booting any linux live cd gets me an initramfs error. I already tried using diff RAM modules... any ideas?
[09:52] <r00723r0> i'm pretty sure this is not supposed to happen - i boot up my computer, i see the ubuntu load screen with the orange bar, then i get the console and it tells me apt is not installed and my hard drive is corrupt. i try to fsck it but it's mounted. i enter "reboot" and the computer boots up normally. i'm now logged in as myself and everything works fine
[09:52] <raul> yeah... but is annoying wait all time when your remote ftp window freeze and all windows same
[09:53] <taa> nickrud so can i buy a licence ? is it possible i meant ?
[09:53] <dejx> Gnea
[09:53] <r00723r0> so reboot started the computer for me
[09:53] <r00723r0> it was like a password

[09:53] <dejx> And yes i can read and write from console, the only problem is X
[09:53] <raul> when force to quit, all window close too
[09:53] <scorp123> andrewww: sudo apt-cache search ogg  .... it should be listed there I guess.

[09:53] <sn-> bean-oh install it in a virtual machine (virtual box / vmware) to test out first i say :]

[09:54] <Stormx2> liquiddoom: Yeah, it'd work.

[09:54] <DarkRamon> It is showing me the same error: http://www.mirc.net/paste/?1366
[09:54] <r00723r0> scorp123: i definitely asked
[09:55] <r00723r0> i boot up my computer, i see the ubuntu load screen with the orange bar, then i get the console and it tells me apt is not installed and my hard drive is corrupt. i try to fsck it but it's mounted. i enter "reboot" and the computer boots up normally. i'm now logged in as myself and everything works fine
[09:55] <scorp123> r00723r0: then I beg your pardon; I did not see it.

[09:55] <raul> I dont imagine as it cannot happen to anybody, is something very common with the removibles devices
[09:55] <scorp123> r00723r0: maybe a loose cable??
[09:55] <r00723r0> a loose cable?
[09:55] <r00723r0> but then why am i logged in
[09:55] <bobbyy> need ubuntu 7.04 themes
[09:55] <DarkRamon> erUSUL: it is giving me the same error: http://www.mirc.net/paste/?1366
[09:55] <andrewww> I still have no idea as to what im doing..ahha to be honest im new to the whole linux scene
[09:56] <scorp123> r00723r0: I had that once ... flaky contact on one of the HD's ... It would report errors every third reboot or so.
[09:56] <someone2005> Whats the best way to get that orange lock off of a linked file ?
[09:56] <r00723r0> scorp123: no way, i just switched my secondary hard drive
[09:56] <IndyGunFreak> POVaddct: good choice.
[09:56] <r00723r0> this is scary
[09:56] <scorp123> r00723r0: *exactly* ... you touched your hard drives, so you probably touched the cables too?
[09:56] <IndyGunFreak> r00723r0: what is scary
[09:56] <POVaddct> IndyGunFreak: well i had some issues with the e1000 ethernet card
[09:57] <r00723r0> scorp123: yes, of course
[09:57] <r00723r0> IndyGunFreak: the similarities
[09:57] <scorp123> r00723r0: maybe one of the cables is not 100% firmly inserted as it should be?
[09:57] <r00723r0> scorp123: there's no way i'm going to find out right now
[09:57] <r00723r0> i'm copying part of it
[09:57] <osxdude|palmTX> @pity the old computer
[09:57] <POVaddct> IndyGunFreak: but i think it runs okay now (module parameter RxIntDelay=5)

[09:59] <r00723r0> scorp123: my best guess is yes
[09:59] <IndyGunFreak> DJDoubledeks: what type of sound device
[09:59] <r00723r0> scorp123: but i don't want to scare my parents
[09:59] <DJDoubledeks> its a usb sound blaster

[10:00] <scorp123> r00723r0: but if your new HD is making troubles too .... either you're one of those guys having bad luck all the time and you bought a "dead on arrival" harddisk .... or the real issue is your disk controller (that part in the PC that controls the HD's ...)
[10:00] <weltbaum> hm, crowded here
[10:00] <scorp123> r00723r0: how old is the PC in question?

[10:01] <Erich85> Hey all.  This isn't very technical-related, but I'm wondering if anyone knew of any Ubuntu programs to allow the icons in my top panel to zoom larger when the cursor hovers above them... sort of like what OSX does.
[10:02] <someone2005> What does a - mean as to a check for executing files ?
[10:02] <scorp123> r00723r0: well, hard drives can die pretty fast, especially if they suffer "heavy use" ....
[10:02] <r00723r0> my parents have been putting gigabytes of pictures on it
[10:02] <scorp123> Erich85: gdesklets
[10:02] <crolle17> i tried to insert a png-bitmap into /usr/shared/pixmaps for having it as an icon. but it is impossible?
[10:02] <Erich85> scorp123: You're a good man with a big heart.
[10:03] <scorp123> Erich85: no, in fact I am pretty arrogant and selfish ... you just don't know me yet :-)
[10:03] <crolle17> how to add a png-bitmap to pixmaps-library?

[10:08] <Erich85> I love that even with the prettiest Beryl graphics running, my RAM is hardly eaten up.  Vista used 1 out of 2 of my GB's just sitting there, and it didn't even do that much.

[10:08] <Wonderboy> Erich85, Ubuntu isn't the only linux distro that uses Apt. :)
[10:08] <scorp123> Erich85: all distros based on Debian use it. :)
[10:08] <Wonderboy> Erich85, but I do agree, it is a nice stable distro. I couldn't stand it when I first used it, but that was a while back, now it's great.
[10:08] <Erich85> Wonderboy: :)  I'm sure, but it's the first Linux distro I've used.  I suppose I mean Linux in general, and especially the Gnome interface.
[10:08] <Erich85> Wonderboy: What were its old flaws?
[10:08] <scorp123> Erich85: and you can even get it to work on some non-Debian distros such as SUSE if you put some effort into it :)
[10:09] <Erich85> scorp123: I can't say that I'm too big of a fan of KDE
[10:09] <stu-mc> Q: what ftp server should i use ?
[10:09] <Wonderboy> Erich85, slowness, applications failing, I don't remember exactly since it was a few years ago (perhap 2).
[10:09] <vzduch> anyone have a hint on enabling 3D acceleration w/ nvidia-glx-legacy? I tried a number of tricks I found on the 'net, but none work.. the driver itself is working, only I get no acceleration
[10:09] <usr13> How does one turn off X?
[10:09] <Wonderboy> stu-mc, whatever you are the most confortable with configuring securely. :)
[10:09] <scorp123> Erich85: I until recently *was* ... But then KDE started to be boring :)
[10:09] <Wonderboy> comfortable*
[10:09] <usr13> (need to install nvidia driver.
[10:09] <usr13> if I kill X, it just restarts.
[10:10] <scorp123> Erich85: so now I switched to GNOME ... for now :)
[10:10] <vzduch> usr13: use one of the drivers from the repos, no need to stop X for that
[10:10] <osmosis> what vnc does ubuntu use ?
[10:10] <Wonderboy> scorp123, you want fun, run fluxbox. ;)

[10:11] <Wonderboy> scorp123, it's nice and lightweight, it's great. But when I need something that is gnome-like and still lightweight I use Xfce.
[10:11] <stu-mc> sorry forgot i was in */me*
[10:11] <scorp123> Wonderboy: and "WindowMaker" is nice too ... especially on older systems.
[10:11] <someone2005> ok where was I ?
[10:12] <Erich85> Wonderboy, scorp123:  Are there any other novel GUI's that Linux uses?  As in, something that employs an idea different than the desktop metaphor?  It'd be neat to work with some truly eye-opening interfaces.  Do those exist?
[10:12] <usr13> vzduch: My card is Tnt2
[10:12] <stefg> stu-mc: look at ssh, sshfs, sftp..... sudo apt-get install openssh-server on the  server
[10:12] <mariusbm> scorp123, IceWM rock on my thinclient setup... so does blackbox.. .:)
[10:12] <scorp123> Erich85: depends on what you want .... for graphics effect that will make any Vista user STFU I suggest Beryl or Compiz-Fusion :D
[10:13] <vzduch> usr13: old stuff, afaik even older than my GF2.. --> nvidia-glx-legacy

[10:13] <usr13> vzduch: Vanta LT
[10:13] <Wonderboy> Erich85, the only interfaces I've used are: KDE, Gnome, Fluxbox, Xfce
[10:13] <taa> i still can't find any strong arguments for why launchpas is source closes !
[10:13] <osmosis> which is better...tightvnc   or realvnc ?
[10:13] <Wonderboy> fiXXXerMet, no problem, best of luck to you, it's pretty much plug and play so you should be all set.
[10:13] <r00723r0> i would like to make an archive which i need to split by size. is this possible with file-roller?
[10:13] <taa> launchpad i meant
[10:13] <usr13> vzduch: nvidia-glx-legacy?
[10:13] <Wonderboy> fiXXXerMet, wifi on linux can be scary sometimes, I know. ;)
[10:13] <scorp123> osmosis: I personally prefer tightvnc .... no particular reason. it's the one I always used :)
[10:14] <Erich85> scorp123: Oh yeah, I have Beryl, it's awesome.  I just meant something different than the "Desktop is a link to my folders, blah blah".  Like, how the $100 laptop has that crazy novel GUI that works based on the idea of a neighborhood
[10:14] <Wonderboy> fiXXXerMet, and of course if you need any help you know where to find us. :)
[10:14] <r00723r0> i would like to make an archive which i need to split by size. is this possible with file-roller?
[10:14] <fiXXXerMet> Wonderboy: Yah.  Tried to get a pre-n card working and decided that the time it is taking me to get it working isn't worth the cost of a working card
[10:14] <r00723r0> or any other archiving system?
[10:15] <regeya> r00723r0: pax will split by size, but not if you're compressing.  using tar and split will work, as in tar czvf - ./* | split -b 795m - archive.
[10:15] <armando> hellow
[10:16] <regeya> then you get archive.aa, archive.ab, split at 795 mb
[10:16] <r00723r0> regeya: thanks - what's the size of a dvd?
[10:16] <RkyRaccoon55> ubuntu feisty wont let me use "1600x1050" resolution
[10:16] <calc> r00723r0: ~ 4.5GiB
[10:16] <regeya> r00723r0: CAREFUL -- you can't make a single file to the size of a dvd-r.
[10:16] <usr13> vzduch: Can this nvidia-glx-legacy driver be installed while the X server is running?
[10:16] <r00723r0> regeya: ?
[10:16] <usr13> anyone?
[10:16] <calc> regeya: if you write it via udf you could (i think?)
[10:16] <vzduch> usr13: yes
[10:16] <calc> r00723r0: iso9660 has 1GB limit i think
[10:17] <RkyRaccoon55> how do i get ubuntu to allow 1600x1050?
[10:17] <r00723r0> that's fucking rediculous
[10:17] <regeya> calc: last time I tried, yes, it'll write but not read...there's a filesize limit on udf as well but I don't remember
[10:17] <r00723r0> i hate iso9660
[10:17] <Wonderboy> RkyRaccoon55, does your video card support it?
[10:17] <calc> r00723r0: iso9660 is like 25 years old

[10:17] <r00723r0> my bad
[10:17] <mariusbm> r00723r0, you can try the UDF mode..
[10:17] <RkyRaccoon55> wonderboy: yes, and i added it to my xorg.conf
[10:17] <scorp123> r00723r0: do you have an external USB harddisk? Backup to that ....
[10:17] <vzduch> usr13: only need to restart X after installation.. and best run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' beforehand, otherwise you likely get something like 640x480..
[10:17] <r00723r0> no, i don't :(
[10:17] <Wonderboy> RkyRaccoon55, have you restarted your session since?
[10:18] <r00723r0> mariusbm: how do i do that?
[10:18] <RkyRaccoon55> wonderboy: yes
[10:18] <bahmie> anybody thinking of buying the asus eee with ubuntu loaded on it?
[10:18] <Wonderboy> RkyRaccoon55, and the machine? (though usually you shouldn't have to)
[10:18] <TehDarkLiquid> Anyone have any experience with getting the mouse working in Virtual PC 2007?
[10:18] <usr13> vzduch: DO I need to edit xorg.conf by hand?
[10:18] <RkyRaccoon55> wonderboy: yes
[10:18] <vzduch> usr13: not necessarily
[10:18] <scorp123> TehDarkLiquid: that's a Microsoft product methinks??
[10:18] <usr13> vzduch: to change from nv to "nvidia"?
[10:18] <TehDarkLiquid> sure is
[10:18] <usr13> vzduch: Ok, thanks.
[10:18] <mariusbm> r00723r0, i belive brasero got the UDF mode, can handle "DVD size" files..
[10:18] <vzduch> usr13: no, you can do that by running the above
[10:19] <r00723r0> brasero?
[10:19] <vzduch> i.e. change from nv to nvidia
[10:19] <scorp123> TehDarkLiquid: you're in the wrong channel buddy .... #microsoft
[10:19] <Wonderboy> RkyRaccoon55, what kind of card is it?
[10:19] <vzduch> 1st question it asks
[10:19] <neverblue> how can I check the resolution a display is currently using?
[10:19] <thenetduck> join #ubuntulive
[10:19] <TehDarkLiquid> Because i'm trying to run it on VPC it's suddenly microsofts problem?
[10:19] <TehDarkLiquid> interesting
[10:20] <Wonderboy> neverblue, are you using gnome?
[10:20] <vzduch> neverblue: check the info button on your display ;)
[10:20] <neverblue> Wonderboy, yes
[10:20] <mariusbm> r00723r0, yes. as in the burning software..
[10:20] <thenetduck> is there a ubuntu live channel?
[10:20] <scorp123> TehDarkLiquid: mouses work everywhere else it seems, so yes ... it must be a Micro$oft problem.
[10:20] <Wonderboy> neverblue, system -> preferences -> screen resolution
[10:20] <r00723r0> ok
[10:20] <neverblue> Wonderboy, no, from cli
[10:20] <vzduch> thenetduck: why would you want one?
[10:20] <TehDarkLiquid> no. it's ubuntu's inability to recognize the mouse.
[10:20] <vzduch> thenetduck: you can ask questions about the live CD here
[10:20] <TehDarkLiquid> or maybe not.. hmm
[10:21] <scorp123> TehDarkLiquid: sure, that's why all the people here are typing from CLI like mad to get their mice working again? :-)
[10:21] <neverblue> Wonderboy, Imeant screen
[10:21] <thenetduck> vzduch I mean the Ubuntu Live Orgen confrence :)
[10:21] <omha> hey
[10:21] <usr13> How does one turn off the X server in Ubuntu?
[10:21] <Wonderboy> neverblue, one sec, I'll see if I can find it.
[10:21] <omha> i just installed kde4base but how do i start it?
[10:21] <vzduch> usr13: what's the problem again?
[10:21] <thenetduck> vzduch I accually need to find out if I can print shirts for my US Team members that say Ubuntu Live on them
[10:21] <usr13> vzduch: It
[10:22] <andkore> hey, i gotz a noob question. if i wanna burn a ubuntu disc, can i just extract the stuff and put it in the winders thing so i dont hafta get a windows burning tool?
[10:22] <usr13> vzduch: The screen does not contain the desktop images anymore.
[10:22] <thenetduck> vzduch I'm not going to get suide or something will i?
[10:22] <vzduch> thenetduck: no idea..
[10:22] <usr13> vzduch: I'm thinking I should go ahead and compile the driver I downloaded from nvidia?
[10:22] <Sweetrelease> andkore no you have to burn it,
[10:22] <usr13> vzduch:   Or.... ?
[10:23] <andkore> Sweetrelease, i meant the windows burning thing. sorry bad explanation
[10:23] <TehDarkLiquid> scorp123: can you suggest an alternative to have fiesty server installed in a virtual enviornment with a GUI on it?
[10:23] <vzduch> usr13: it probably dropped you to a low-res desktop.. as I said, run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[10:23] <Sweetrelease> andkore windows burning thing?
[10:23] <RkyRaccoon55> wonderboy: my comp froze, sorry
[10:23] <justeco> I just installed Feisty and it seems faster than LTS :)  Snappier.  It was also much easier to install certain apps since more repositories are active by default.  Very nice.
[10:23] <scorp123> TehDarkLiquid: VMware Server .... can be downloaded for free + it just works. Been there, done that, used it.
[10:23] <Wonderboy> neverblue, check your X conf file.
[10:23] <Wonderboy> RkyRaccoon55, no problem, what video card?
[10:23] <andkore> Sweetrelease, the burning tool that comes with windows...
[10:23] <UbuntuServerUser> when running quotacheck -avugm I get this eerror:  Quota for users is enabled on mountpoint /srv so quotacheck might damage the file.
[10:23] <UbuntuServerUser> What does it mean?
[10:23] <RkyRaccoon55> radeon x1950 pro
[10:23] <andkore> Sweetrelease, i'm in win right now
[10:23] <TehDarkLiquid> scorp123: Thanks :)
[10:23] <neverblue> Wonderboy, no no, there is a cli to check a screens res
[10:23] <scorp123> TehDarkLiquid: Another one: "VirtualBox". Is opensource as of recently. Comparable to VMware Workstation.
[10:24] <Sweetrelease> andkore i dident know windows came with a ISO burner
[10:24] <andkore> Sweetrelease, o
[10:24] <scorp123> TehDarkLiquid: "VirtualBox" too just works ....
[10:24] <usr13> vzduch: What is "Default Screen" ?   Is that same as Screen 1?
[10:24] <justeco> Only bug I have found so far is that selecting the configuration from the little "Wired Connection" icon shows me a dialog where everything is set to <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:24] <hypn0> thenetduck: the normal procedure is to get permission from owners, canocial I think
[10:24] <RkyRaccoon55> wonderboy: radeon x1950
[10:24] <andkore> Sweetrelease, well my question i guess is can you extract an iso and use a regular tool to burn it and will that work?
[10:24] <vzduch> usr13: which question?
[10:24] <andkore> Sweetrelease, instead of using a tool that lets you burn right from an iso
[10:24] <RkyRaccoon55> wonderboy: pro
[10:24] <CppIsWeird> how do i change what the default application is that opens up certain file types
[10:24] <CppIsWeird> ?
[10:25] <Wonderboy> neverblue, perhaps xrandr
[10:25] <Wonderboy> RkyRaccoon55, sure, one sec.
[10:25] <Sweetrelease> andkore your better off getting a free iso burner and doing the iso
[10:25] <_MrPeanut_> hey guys .. is there an easy way to copy a text file list of files with full paths to a central location? one directory?
[10:25] <neverblue> Wonderboy, nope, that does something else
[10:25] <UbuntuServerUser> when running quotacheck -avugm I get this eerror:  Quota for users is enabled on mountpoint /srv so quotacheck might damage the file. What does it mean? Help
[10:25] <Wonderboy> neverblue, then I have no idea. =P
[10:25] <andkore> Sweetrelease, will this work? i already tried isomagic and it isn't working
[10:25] <nickrud> CppIsWeird, you right click a representative file, select properties at the bottom of the menu, and open with on the dialog window
[10:25] <vzduch> usr13: if I am correct, this question asks the name of your monitor.. but might also be a lot later in the process
[10:25] <neverblue> O_o
[10:26] <andkore> Sweetrelease, isomagic burns it but then it doesn't detect anything on the CD and when i boot and select boot from CD nothing happens
[10:26] <Sweetrelease> andkore i dont know, if it boots great if it dosent a cd costs about 5cents. give it a shot
[10:26] <vzduch> andkore: are you burning the ISO as a file instead of as an image?
[10:26] <andkore> no i'm not vzduch
[10:26] <andkore> it has an option for burning an iso
[10:27] <andkore> and that isn't working
[10:27] <hwilde> !burn

[10:28] <mariusbm> andkore, windows burning tool do not support ISO files..
[10:28] <ompaul> andkore, to burn an iso that works - you need to burn it as an iso not a file
[10:28] <hendrixski> umm... I rebooted and all of my programs are still there, but none of my settings, and none of my files are there
[10:28] <andkore> mariusbm, l2read

[10:42] <stu-mc> Scorp123: it was spoke about in a ubuntu manual so thought would use that one :)
[10:42] <tuliox> is there a livecd boot option to keep the livecd and go right to the installation process? like 5.10 was?
[10:42] <Sweetrelease> usr13 or system>preferences>screen resolution
[10:42] <esun819> tuliox: try downloading the alternate installer. do you mean the text-install option?
[10:42] <Raeth> tuliox: "installation process" being the blue text-based installer?
[10:42] <Sweetrelease> usr13 if its in the xorg.conf by default some of the larger or wider arent in
[10:43] <newtubuntu> how do I share a printer on a Samba network ?  I only see share FOLDERS, no printers, and in the properties tab of the printer I can't find a sharing option.  Thanks for any help.
[10:43] <scorp123> stu-mc: read the docs ... As far as I know with proftpd you don't even have to give your FTP users real system accounts.
[10:43] <Bo^Dick> very disappointing, i burned the xubuntu desktop 6.06.1 on a cd
[10:43] <scorp123> stu-mc: http://www.proftpd.org
[10:43] <stu-mc> Scorp123: kk thanks
[10:43] <Bo^Dick> and when i check the cd for defects it fails
[10:43] <tuliox> Raeth yes
[10:43] <IndyGunFreak> Bo^Dick: why is that a disappointment
[10:44] <tuliox> like debian's installer
[10:44] <scorp123> stu-mc: there are some important packages about "virtual hosting" you might be interested in ....
[10:44] <georgy28> ! samba > newtubuntu
[10:44] <Bo^Dick> IndyGunFreak: the cd appears to contains defects
[10:44] <scorp123> stu-mc: *pages ..... not "packages" .... typo.
[10:44] <zaggynl> Bo^Dick, did you check the image with md5sum?
[10:44] <esun819> tuliox: the alternative desktop iso has both the debian installer option as well as ubiquity
[10:44] <Raeth> tuliox: yeah, you need to burn the alternative disc
[10:44] <tuliox> oh thats cool
[10:44] <stu-mc> Scorp123: :) ill read ( not too many beers for me tonight then :)
[10:44] <tuliox> thx
[10:45] <Bo^Dick> zaggynl: i tried the "check cd for defects" option
[10:45] <UbuntuServerUser> I'm in the middle of editing a file and forgot to login as sudo, how do I save this?
[10:45] <Sweetrelease> paintcan any luck?
[10:45] <zaggynl> Bo^Dick, I understand, how did you burn the cd?
[10:45] <IndyGunFreak> Bo^Dick: couple things, try burning it slower (round 4x) also you migh want to download the latest version
[10:45] <Bo^Dick> zaggynl: deepburner
[10:45] <zaggynl> Bo^Dick, so you downloaded the image first?
[10:45] <paintcan> sweetrelease getting alot of errors I have a friend on AIM TRYING to help heh
[10:45] <Bo^Dick> zaggynl: yup
[10:45] <Sweetrelease> paintcan k
[10:45] <zaggynl> Bo^Dick, how did you download it? by bittorrent or by browser?
[10:46] <Bo^Dick> zaggynl: browser
[10:46] <UbuntuServerUser> I'm in the middle of editing a file and forgot to login as sudo, how do I save this in nano via CLI???<>>
[10:46] <mariusbm> UbuntuServerUser, save it in youre hom dir.. copy it later..
[10:46] <Bo^Dick> zaggynl: over 500mb size
[10:46] <zaggynl> Bo^Dick, before you burn a downloaded image (by browser), perform a md5sum check
[10:46] <zaggynl> Bo^Dick, are you familiar with that procedure?
[10:46] <projectstartrek> no
[10:46] <vzduch> question: how do I enable 3D acceleration after installing nvidia-glx-legacy? the driver works, I get the Nvidia logo on startup of X
[10:47] <MrOtacon> can some1 please tell me what this error is: Signal: SIGSEGV [segmentation fault]
[10:47] <tuliox> which has less memory usage, ubuntu or kubuntu? :D
[10:47] <Bo^Dick> zaggynl: nope
[10:47] <projectstartrek> kubuntu
[10:47] <vzduch> MrOtacon: application crashed
[10:47] <bronze> tuliox, I'm not sure, but I'm guessing ubuntu.

[10:47] <VSpike> has anyone else who has installed the google desktop linux beta found that you start getting emails from cron?
[10:47] <avb> hi all. Guys, maybe somebody already fix a problem when compiz is grabbing al Ctrl-Alt bindings under gutsy?
[10:47] <zaggynl> Bo^Dick, do you still have the link to the image?
[10:47] <logan_> do you have to get a firewall on ubuntu fiesty?
[10:47] <UbuntuServerUser> kthanks
[10:48] <zaggynl> logan_, ubuntu comes with a firewall by default
[10:48] <MrOtacon> vzduch: is there any reason why i am getting it when running UT99? everyone on ubuntu forums says that they can run it fine
[10:48] <zaggynl> !iptables
[10:48] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[10:48] <logan_> is there a way to access it?
[10:48] <c_lisp> man iptables
[10:48] <logan_> thank you]
[10:48] <zaggynl> logan_, sure thing, install firestarter
[10:48] <bronze> logan_, Not really, but there is one by default, called iptables (but I don't think it's enabled)
[10:48] <avb> i think its kind of a plugin who doing something with ctrl-alt binding
[10:48] <zaggynl> !firestarter  | logan_
[10:48] <ubotu> logan_: please see above
[10:48] <vzduch> MrOtacon: I don't play, let alone UT ;)
[10:48] <logan_> yes
[10:48] <VSpike> Seems they drop something into cron.hourly to check for updates, but it uses "echo" a lot internally.  All very well except now I get emails every time it runs
[10:48] <MrOtacon> vzduch: :) - ok thanks... just wanted to get that old classic workin
[10:48] <zaggynl> o/
[10:49] <MrOtacon> does anyone have ut99 running in feisty, game of the year edition, and if so - can you please tell me how you got it to work
[10:49] <UbuntuServerUser> how do I get a listing via CLI of my networking devices? and how do I know which one I am plugged into?
[10:50] <Bo^Dick> zaggynl: i'm performing the md5sum check right now
[10:50] <zaggynl> Bo^Dick, okay good
[10:50] <mariusbm> UbuntuServerUser, ifconfig list all network devs..
[10:50] <zaggynl> I'm not saying that certainly is the problem, but it very well could be
[10:50] <UbuntuServerUser> thanks
[10:50] <UbuntuServerUser> btw, why is it ifconfig and not ipconfig?
[10:50] <Bo^Dick> zaggynl: the output was "dd8778d8670a14fdeddfece062b52783"
[10:50] <zaggynl> Bo^Dick, could you paste the link you got the image from?
[10:50] <mariusbm> UbuntuServerUser, becuse... :)
[10:51] <UbuntuServerUser> you guys hate windows that badly???
[10:51] <Bo^Dick> zaggynl: hang on
[10:51] <jrib> UbuntuServerUser: InterFace
[10:51] <zaggynl> sure thing
[10:51] <UbuntuServerUser> ok
[10:51] <key2> hi
[10:51] <avb> heh, nobody
[10:51] <UbuntuServerUser> lol
[10:51] <avb> ok
[10:51] <avb> thanks :)
[10:51] <logan_> Ok, it says I need to have root privelages
[10:51] <projectstartrek> use sudo
[10:51] <zaggynl> UbuntuServerUser, it's a unix/linux thing, we just do things differently
[10:51] <RkyRaccoon55> how do i get ubuntu feisty to run 1600x1050 screen resolution?
[10:51] <zaggynl> that, and there are plenty of zealots and fanboys
[10:51] <logan_> so.. sudo firestarter?
[10:51] <zaggynl> yessir
[10:51] <Bo^Dick> zaggynl: http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/mirror/cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/6.06.1/release.1/xubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso
[10:51] <zaggynl> thansk
[10:51] <mariusbm> UbuntuServerUser, nope.. I use windows everyday.. but do not tell anyone! :)
[10:51] <logan_> im getting better at this ;)
[10:52] <UbuntuServerUser> zaggynl, so much for some// kind of standard
[10:52] <MrOtacon> has anyone played unreal tournament (the classic 99 goty version?)
[10:52] <zaggynl> UbuntuServerUser, it very much is a standard, of linux :D
[10:52] <MrOtacon> on ubuntu i mean
[10:52] <zaggynl> Bo^Dick, http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/mirror/cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/6.06.1/release.1/MD5SUMS contains all md5sums
[10:52] <UbuntuServerUser> mariusbm ;) I'll keep a secret, if i stated what OS i was one right now I'd probably get auto kicked
[10:52] <zaggynl> compare the one you got from your image with the one next to the file name in that file
[10:52] <RkyRaccoon55> how do i get ubuntu feisty to run 1600x1050 screen resolution?
[10:53] <UbuntuServerUser> zaggynl exactly, of Linux, but not of computer ;) but its getting OT so w/e i don't care
[10:53] <zaggynl> dd8778d8670a14fdeddfece062b52783 c0b54deca75e8e3a87988846c9ae1e44
[10:53] <UbuntuServerUser> zaggynl computing*
[10:53] <MrOtacon> RkyRaccoon55: my guess would be editting /etc/X11/xorg.conf - but im guessing, i am a newb
[10:53] <projectstartrek> edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and add 1600x1050 to the resolution list
[10:53] <mariusbm> UbuntuServerUser, lol. but i am seriously in love with my ubuntu box... kicks vistas ass...
[10:53] <zaggynl> UbuntuServerUser, of computing? Microsoft is pretty standard for most people, but they does not define computing for the full 100%
[10:54] <projectstartrek> then restart X
[10:54] <RkyRaccoon55> MrOtacon: i am to, no worries.  I allready did that though
[10:54] <hacked_kernel> I installed jdk from the .bin file and I did update-alternative for the java and java commands, javac is working fine but when executing java it say "No such file or directory"
[10:54] <RkyRaccoon55> how do i get ubuntu feisty to run 1600x1050 screen resolution?
[10:54] <portabel_radar> Hi, can anyone of you help me?
[10:54] <zaggynl> RkyRaccoon55, add those resolutions in xorg.conf, then use xrandr to change
[10:54] <wols_> !fixres | RkyRaccoon55
[10:54] <georgy28> ! ask
[10:54] <ubotu> RkyRaccoon55: 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
[10:54] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:54] <wols_> RkyRaccoon55: what videocard?
[10:54] <UbuntuServerUser> zaggynl, definitly I agree, but I'm talking about universal standards, not just Microsoft, not just unix, etc, would have saved me from asking "whats command for network devices" if ipconfig carried over to unix's "ifconfig"
[10:55] <RkyRaccoon55> wols_: ati radeon x1950 pro
[10:55] <wols_> !ati | RkyRaccoon55
[10:55] <ubotu> RkyRaccoon55: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:55] <dblx> my citrix mapped drive says device not ready?
[10:55] <wols_> RkyRaccoon55: you currently use vesa. which can't do that res
[10:55] <UbuntuServerUser> mariusbm, i would run ubuntu if it wasn't for games :(
[10:55] <zaggynl> UbuntuServerUser, that's the good/bad part, there is no universal standard. but a lot of difference, makes it interesting, yet tiring
[10:55] <magnetron> !games | UbuntuServerUser
[10:55] <RkyRaccoon55> wols_: on a previous install of ubuntu it worked fine
[10:55] <ubotu> UbuntuServerUser: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and ubuntugames.org
[10:55] <MrOtacon> UbuntuServerUser: have you ever played ut99 on ubuntu?
[10:56] <zaggynl> I personally run dual boot
[10:56] <hacked_kernel> I installed jdk from the .bin file and I did update-alternative for the java and java commands, javac is working fine but when executing java it say "bash: /usr/bin/java: No such file or directory"
[10:56] <wols_> RkyRaccoon55: I doubt it. the only drivers that work for you are vesa and flgrx. and fglrx is not installed by default
[10:56] <UbuntuServerUser> meOtacon no....played it on winders
[10:56] <hacked_kernel> any help?
[10:56] <wols_> and vesa is unaccelerated and usually doesn't gove above 1024
[10:56] <zaggynl> Bo^Dick, how's it going?
[10:57] <wols_> hacked_kernel: yes. don't install that stuff
[10:57] <MrOtacon> UbuntuServerUser: ahhh - ok :) - just been trying to get it running all day - everyone on the forums say it works - but i can't get it to
[10:57] <wols_> !java | hacked_kernel
[10:57] <RkyRaccoon55> wols_: doubt it all you want. it was working fine with the ati drivers
[10:57] <ubotu> hacked_kernel: 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. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[10:57] <Bo^Dick> zaggynl: isn't it pretty amazing how i could get a faulty image at xubunty.org
[10:57] <UbuntuServerUser> mrotacon :( sorry can't help you there
[10:57] <wols_> RkyRaccoon55: as I said: with fglrx. "ati" si the driver delivered with Xorg. and no, that one does not wrk
[10:57] <RkyRaccoon55> wols_: i currently have the same drivers installed but its not working this time.
[10:57] <wols_> RkyRaccoon55: no matter what you tell me here
[10:57] <MrOtacon> UbuntuServerUser: :) no worries dude
[10:58] <zaggynl> Bo^Dick, actually it isn't, web browsers do not make for safe downloading, for large files, I prefer either wget or bittorrent, the latter does its own file corruption checking aka checksum
[10:58] <RkyRaccoon55> wols_: i used the drivers from ati's site, dont argue about this i know it worked before i re-installed ubuntu
[10:58] <wols_> RkyRaccoon55: which dirveers exactly. and don't say "ati". name them differently cause that is ambigous
[10:58] <wols_> RkyRaccoon55: if you use those drivers. fine. we don't support them
[10:58] <projectstartrek> ati is an open source linux driver
[10:58] <wols_> ubuntu has perfectly fine ati restricted drivers
[10:58] <Centinex> How can I enable boot logging in Ubuntu to see why it's freezing during bootup?  I can't get a shell, so I need to find a way to log it to diagnose why.
[10:58] <RkyRaccoon55> wols_: and thats fine, but is there any way you could give me a hint as to how to get that resolution to work?
[10:59] <Steve^> Hey, Kaffiene is crashing when I try to open any type of file. I should fully reinstall it? Or?
[10:59] <wols_> RkyRaccoon55: I already did
[10:59] <Bo^Dick> that was my last writable cd that went into a frisbee
[10:59] <Bo^Dick> grr
[10:59] <wols_> there is probably morein your xorg.log. check it
[11:00] <MrXorg> Anyone know where to get xorg-intel845g drivers from?
[11:00] <Centinex> Google.
[11:00] <mariusbm> is there any scandinavians here?
[11:00] <wols_> MrXorg: i810 is what you need
[11:00] <tonyyarusso> mariusbm: Of course.
[11:00] <tonyyarusso> (Partially anyway)
[11:00] <MrXorg> Sweet!.. where from
[11:00] <wols_> MrXorg: you already have it
[11:01] <mariusbm> tonsofpcs, just barly hanging in here i see..
[11:01] <usr13> How does one determine what screen resolution is being used?
[11:01] <tonyyarusso> Minnesota, USA by birth - Norwegian and Swedish by ancestry (as well as Finnish, Polish, Swiss, and Italian)
[11:01] <mariusbm> sorru tonsofpcs ... wrong dude..

[11:01] <ubotu> tonyyarusso: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[11:01] <MrXorg> wols_:  trying to get my s video working... it says I need that driver
[11:01] <wols_> MrXorg: who does?
[11:02] <tonyyarusso> wols_: Doh, sorry - mixed up my tabs!  /me scuttles back to -offtopic
[11:02] <MrXorg> The box in front of me
[11:02] <zaggynl> usr13, xrandr
[11:02] <wols_> intel only has those drivers afaik
[11:02] <zaggynl> usr13, look for the line with the asterisk (*) in front of it
[11:02] <_Robbe_> Does anyone know a way to get the full root access as a user while using nautilus ?
[11:02] <Nachtzecke> who can i know wich kind of theme i need?
[11:02] <nickrud> usr13, a quicky is xdpyinfo | grep dimension
[11:02] <zaggynl> _Robbe_, sudo nautilus
[11:02] <wols_> i810 which is for all intel cards from i810 onwards up to i965
[11:03] <magnetron> _Robbe_: press alt+f2 ,then type gksudo nautilus
[11:03] <wols_> !root | _Robbe_
[11:03] <ubotu> _Robbe_: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[11:03] <wols_> RkyRaccoon55: use sudo and gksudo
[11:03] <wols_> oops
[11:03] <_Robbe_> zaggynl & ubotu : thanks a lot :-)
[11:03] <wols_> RkyRaccoon55: probably your monitor refreshrates are wrong btw
[11:03] <Bo^Dick> thanks guys for the support
[11:03] <MrXorg> wols_: So my "xorg-video-intel driver" is already installed?
[11:04] <wols_> MrXorg: yes
[11:04] <zaggynl> _Robbe_, no problem, and ubotu is a bot :)
[11:04] <Centinex> Okay.  Ubuntu 7.04 is freezing AT RANDOM during bootup.  I can't seem to identify a pattern, and in recovery mode, it always freezes directly after "Setting up console font and keymap...[OK]
[11:04] <wols_> MrXorg: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:04] <RkyRaccoon55> wols_: i change them in xorg.conf?
[11:04] <wols_> RkyRaccoon55: yes
[11:04] <Centinex> Does anyone have any idea how i can isolate the problem further?
[11:04] <MrXorg> Tried that
[11:04] <Centinex> Okay.  Ubuntu 7.04 is freezing AT RANDOM during bootup.  I can't seem to identify a pattern, and in recovery mode, it always freezes directly after "Setting up console font and keymap...[OK]
[11:04] <Jahman> hi
[11:04] <Jamesinator> I'm trying to install ubuntu 7.04 via liveCD on a VERY old PC. It boots up properly, but when I try to run the ubuntu demo on the CD, it loads the kernel then dies with a "cannot find main filesystem" error. I think this might be because I use scuzzy instead of IDE, but does anyone have any tips on how I can get this working?
[11:04] <wols_> MrXorg: feel free to check intel.com. i810 is all ubuntu has afaik
[11:04] <Nachtzecke> who can i know wich kind of theme i need?
[11:04] <levander> Is postfix an alternative to sendmail?
[11:05] <Jamesinator> !postfix
[11:05] <ubotu> postfix is the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) for Ubuntu. Read more about setting it up here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix or here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto
[11:05] <wols_> Jamesinator: how much memory,what scsi card?
[11:05] <wols_> levander: yes
[11:05] <wols_> levander: and you don#t want sendmail
[11:05] <MrXorg> No matter what I do s video doesn't work I'm not to sure how to edit xorg to allow s video
[11:05] <Jamesinator> wols_: I'm not sure for either question, I'll boot it and check. It's incredibly old, circa '95/'98.
[11:05] <spiderfire> any of the window managers good for auto arranging gimp

[11:05] <zaggynl> :D
[11:05] <wols_> Jamesinator: ubuntu desktop needs 256MB RAM btw
[11:07] <Jamesinator> wols_: Really? Crap. I doubt it has that much, but it might. Is that the cause of the problem? I wouldn't expect lacking memory to prevent it from loading the filesystem.
[11:07] <Jamesinator> wols_: 64mb memory
[11:08] <wols_> Jamesinator: the problem is probably it can't find a driver for the scsi card alright
[11:08] <Chief> i couldn't get ubuntu 6.10 to work on an athlon 64 3500 with 256 megs mem - had to upgrade to a gig to use the live cd
[11:08] <Nachtzecke> who can i know wich kind of theme i need?GTK1? GTK2? Compiz? sorry 4 my very bad english,but its important for me to know that :)

[11:11] <vzduch> question: how do I enable 3D acceleration after installing nvidia-glx-legacy? the driver works, I get the Nvidia logo on startup of X
[11:11] <vzduch> jrib: you don't want to use BitchX, at least not w/ default settings..
[11:11] <thesource> can some one tell the the comaned in term to open gnome masager
[11:11] <xst> I try to burn a Cd with k3b but it claims that no blank CD is in the drive. It says "please insert blank Cd" in the window where I should normally just press "burn". Why?
[11:11] <Chief> it should be enabled automatically
[11:11] <bronze> usr13, if you've used mirc before, xchat can be pretty similar
[11:11] <jrib> vzduch: why?
[11:12] <thesource> i think it was some thing like gom??
[11:12] <jrib> thesource: what is "gnome masager"?  what does it do?
[11:12] <Lunar_Lamp> I was installing ubuntu-desktop on my server when it died (power fail) during the config process - how can i resume, as the config processes did not complete.
[11:12] <Nachtzecke> wols_, thanks...so i will try again
[11:12] <CppIsWeird> anyone know of a multi-torrent torrent app. ?
[11:12] <ant30> Has work somebody with SecuRemote vpn connections ?
[11:12] <dummy> sup
[11:12] <vzduch> jrib: you need to 'tame' it first, it has some settings that are not well received on most IRC channels
[11:12] <jrib> vzduch: k
[11:12] <thesource> its theam manger
[11:13] <zaggynl> CppIsWeird, I find wine + utorrent to work the best, for ubuntu (linux) native apps, try ktorrent, azureus and many others (search with synaptic)
[11:13] <jrib> Lunar_Lamp: try installing ubuntu-desktop again?  It should throw errors if something needs to be configured and tell you to 'dpkg --configure -a'
[11:13] <vzduch> jrib: it doesn't have 'bitch' in its name for no reason ;)
[11:13] <thesource> i was reading and i foudn it and it change the sound on login and password sound
[11:13] <ant30> slslslsl
[11:14] <Lunar_Lamp> jrib, hmm, doesn't throw up erros, but, for example, I have no xorg.conf
[11:14] <mo0osah> how do i install a bin file
[11:14] <jrib> thesource: system -> administration -> login window   or in cli:  gksu gdmsetup
[11:14] <zaggynl> mo0osah, you have to mount it first
[11:14] <jrib> mo0osah: what are you trying to install?
[11:14] <mo0osah> realplayer
[11:14] <vzduch> jrib: normally, bin != CD image
[11:14] <jrib> !realplayer > mo0osah (see the private message from ubotu)

[11:15] <jrib> !xconfig > Lunar_Lamp (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:15] <jrib> Lunar_Lamp: though I'm not sure how to check that that is the only issue... maybe you want to remove the packages that installed and reinstall them?
[11:15] <Pici> Can someone pastebin the results of `xset q` for me? I'm doing some bug research.
[11:16] <Lunar_Lamp> jrib, I got it sorted now I think - :)

[11:21] <intangir> vdepizzol: sounds like you need a proper video driver installed
[11:21] <dummy> hey how do I increase font size in xchat
[11:21] <jrib> _MrPeanut_: yes, use a for loop in bash to read in each line one by one and copy the files
[11:21] <georgy28> vdepizzol : I guess you need the nvidia driver
[11:22] <vdepizzol> georgy28: the nvidia-glx didn't work with my card (GeForce4 MX 4000), since the current version in feisty repositories doesn't support it
[11:23] <georgy28> vdepizzol, : and the nvidia-glx-legacy ?
[11:23] <foug> my external hard drive isn't being detected. It was working earlier this morning. I've tried a restart, and unplugging and plugging it back in. Anyone know what the problem might be
[11:23] <jrib> foug: does it show up if you do 'sudo fdisk -l'?
[11:24] <vdepizzol> georgy28: it also didn't work... some problem with restricted-modules version :/
[11:24] <foug> jrib: hda2 extended that might be it?
[11:25] <godtvisken> Can anyone help me add a rule to iptables to allow ssh?

[11:25] <jrib> foug: sda is your external?  are you sure?  what version of ubuntu?
[11:26] <foug> jrib: well i don't know for sure, but it's a 500gb HD and it says 500.1GB next to it. I'm using 7.04
[11:26] <dff> I need chroot tutorial
[11:26] <jrib> foug: your main HD isn't 500gb?

[11:28] <Chads> Fair enough.
[11:28] <foug> jrib: do i just go to /etc/fstab then do an ls?
[11:28] <cad> jrib: thank you, but when you say permanently, you're saying that I can't just startx and undo the change?
[11:28] <jrib> foug: nah, it's a text file, just open it in gedit or something
[11:28] <jrib> cad: yeah.  What are you trying to accomplish?
[11:28] <Chads> I've just installed Ubuntu and everywhere I look it says Ndiswrapper is on the CD or is installed but I cant find it anywhere.
[11:28] <Default> what is the minimum ram required for ubuntu 7.

[11:30] <myusrnm> guys, i am running ubuntu and i want to install windows xp since wine doesn't work for me and i need to use certain programs. how would i go about getting a dual boot?
[11:30] <HOT> guys, is there a catch all command to undo a batch of synaptec updates in one go?
[11:30] <ceil420> Default, i've got Xubuntu Feisty on 512mb ram, and it's rarely over 50%
[11:30] <ceil420> that's with firefox and everything :o
[11:30] <Default> ok, i got 64 mb ram
[11:30] <ceil420> lol i dno about all that :x
[11:30] <ceil420> wait til someone more "in the know" answers, i guess
[11:30] <ceil420> :x
[11:31] <jrib> foug: what's the output of 'uname -r'?
[11:31] <cad> jrib - so are you telling me that I this change 1) can't be undone at all, 2) can't be undone from the cli, 3) will prevent me from starting gnome from the cli ... or 4)...
[11:31] <Default> lol ok
[11:31] <mike24> can anyone help with my ubuntu problem.. i got ubuntu working fine but when i try to load winxp it just reboots back into grub
[11:31] <foug> jrib: 2.6.20-16-generic
[11:31] <jrib> cad: it can be undone, but if you don't want to do it permanently, there's really no point in doing it this way.  Which is why I asked what you are actually trying to do
[11:31] <Default> and a screemin fast 550mhz amd:)
[11:31] <cad> Get to the command line faster.
[11:31] <myusrnm> guys, i am running ubuntu and i want to install windows xp since wine doesn't work for me and i need to use certain programs. how would i go about getting a dual boot?
[11:31] <vzduch> myusrnm: either you know how to restore a bootloader.. or you first install Windoze, then install whatever Linux distro(s) you have
[11:32] <mike24> anyone ever have this proble,
[11:32] <jrib> cad: then sure, this is fine.  You can startx to start X or startup gdm if you want manually,  'man update-rc.d' to see what the gui is actually doing when you disable the graphical greeter (it disables gdm from starting)
[11:32] <Default> sore peter can't beet er
[11:32] <myusrnm> So, vzduch, I basically have to install windows and then reinstall ubuntu and all my programs?
[11:32] <ceil420> Default, looks like 64mb ram is minimum for Feisty: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements
[11:33] <ceil420> recommended is 192 tho :x
[11:33] <nitro4ce> hi. i use gnome and the buttons inside web pages don't have gtk+ integration. for example, the search button in google is a square and it's not nice. i would like to integrate that buttons with my gnome theme. is that possible?
[11:33] <godtvisken> georgy28: it doesn't appear to have worked
[11:33] <Chads> I've looked all over Ubuntu Jrib even that link you gave me but they all seem to hint at having a bit of linux knowledge.
[11:33] <Default> ceil420: ok tks
[11:33] <vzduch> ceil420: 64 MB is minimum for any full-fledged Linux kernel
[11:33] <ceil420> Xubuntu minimum is 48mb ram ^^
[11:33] <mike24> can anyone help with my ubuntu problem.. i got ubuntu working fine but when i try to load winxp it just reboots back into grub , anyone have a clue what i did wrong
[11:33] <jrib> Chads: did you put the cd into your drive and get a popup about enabling a repository?
[11:33] <qnyc> myusrnm, these instructions will tell you how to restore your bootloader after you install windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[11:34] <jrib> foug: try mounting it manually.  Are you familiar with how to do that?
[11:34] <georgy28> godtvisken, : ethX is your lan card so i guess for you it's eth0
[11:34] <ceil420> "Absolute Minimum Installation" only needs 32mb ram
[11:34] <foug> jrib: nope
[11:34] <ceil420> but that's strictly CLI
[11:34] <Raevn> Ceil420 Just barely fit Xubuntu into 128 mb of a Dell Latitude
[11:34] <Chads> No jrib. The CD went in and nothing happened.
[11:34] <Default> ceil420: ok
[11:34] <jrib> foug: what filesystem is on sda1?
[11:34] <ceil420> Raevn, i'm just readin' help.ubuntu.com :x
[11:34] <ceil420> only system i've ever installed Xubuntu on has 512mb ram
[11:34] <foug> jrib: ? ntfs i think
[11:34] <jrib> Chads: try 'sudo apt-cdrom' in a terminal
[11:34] <Ausylo> hey guys, i need some help with a black screen after the GUI boot screen
[11:35] <Chads> ok
[11:35] <someone2005> I've got a question about link time referance...
[11:35] <Raevn> Ceil420: Runs like a glacier though. I read that too and testing tells me to use mor if you can get it
[11:35] <jrib> foug: sudo mkdir /media/sda1 && sudo mount -t ntfs -o umask=0222 /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[11:35] <godtvisken> georgy28: ah woops >_> didn't see that. should i worry about erasing that entry (that i left with ethx)?
[11:35] <foug> jrib: is there a chance this might erase the data on it? i can't have that
[11:35] <ceil420> Raevn, yeah, i think "minimum requirements" means "It'll work, but just barely" :x
[11:35] <Pelo> someone2005,  we don'T guess here,  if you have a question , ask it
