[02:32] <crdlb> nerdzyboy: did you enable the restricted driver somehow?
[02:33] <nerdzyboy> yep
[02:33] <lostboyz> i know there are file organizers for mp3 files, but is there a great file sorter for backup?
[02:33] <webpirate> thanks..
[02:33] <crdlb> nerdzyboy: that would be the problem
[02:33] <Ry-Fi2> does anyone here have any experiance setting up CGI in apache? I am trying to set up CGI irc but i cant seem to get it to work
[02:33] <crdlb> fglrx (the restricted driver) doesn't support AIGLX, so you'd have to use Xgl
[02:34] <nerdzyboy> So I just deactivate them?
[02:34] <crdlb> yes
[02:34] <webpirate> one thing I noticed....with beryl the windows used to raise of the desktop while you were rotating....can't do that anymore
[02:35] <`eric-> can anyone help me get my 8800 to work.. i've select the restricted driver, and it works sometiems.. but other times it just won't boot... :(
[02:35] <nerdzyboy> crdlb: So I just deactivate them?
[02:35] <mssever> juanbond: I don't think there's a way from the CLI ftp prog, but GUI ftp programs should give you such an option
[02:35] <juanbond> cool, thanks mssever.. i'm actually looking into wget and rsync right now
[02:35] <holycow> does anyone know where user profiles are stored in gutsy that the useradd applet uses?  there is nothing in /etc/skel to indicate why its doing silly things ... where can i look to change its settings?

[02:36] <bulmer> holycow-> useradd  ..look at /etc/passwd and see whats been added
[02:37] <dustin> sry.
[02:37] <kslater> changed my primary user password in single user mode and still can't login (auth failed). Anyone know why?
[02:37] <holycow> bulmer: what might passwd haveto do with it tho?
[02:37] <bulmer> kslater-> did you save while you were in single user mode? and sync the disk?
[02:37] <nerdzyboy> crdlb: What driver should I use then?
[02:37] <bulmer> holycow-> man useradd
[02:38] <kslater> bulmer: save?
[02:38] <kslater> I ran passwd <user>
[02:38] <kslater> then I did a shutdown -r now
[02:38] <mssever> dustin: Don't know the command offhand. Try reading man dpkg and man aptitude. There's a way to recover from that, I just don't remember it
[02:38] <crdlb> nerdzyboy: the default "ati" driver, which is what you were using on the livecd and is what you'll get if you disable the restricted driver
[02:38] <dustin> mssever:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42529/
[02:38] <holycow> etc/skel is empty, it must have the settings actually stored somewhere, it wouldn't be in passwd tho
[02:38] <xp_prg> I want to share my internet conneciton with someone, can someone tell me how to do that?
[02:38] <bulmer> klater do it again, this do a sync before you shutdown
[02:38] <holycow> bulmer: thanks but thats not it
[02:38] <nerdzyboy> crdlb: k thanks!
[02:38] <kslater> sync is a command?
[02:39] <gcarrillo> sync pushes any writes to disk that havent gone yet
[02:39] <kslater> will do
[02:39] <bulmer> how come you dont respond with a prefix of the nick you are responding to?
[02:39] <holycow> anyone else know what the adduser applet might be doing?
[02:40] <kslater> bulmer: apologies
[02:40] <SteamMachine> Hi, I'm having severral issues - and I think they're connected.
[02:40] <mssever> dustin: Don't know the command offhand. Try reading man dpkg and man aptitude. There's a way to recover from that, I just don't remember it
[02:40] <bulmer> holycow useradd is the command behind  it
[02:40] <dustin> mssever: ok thanks.
[02:40] <mjancaitis> SteamMachine: what are they?
[02:40] <holycow> irrelevant, skel is empty.  its grabbing config from somewhere else clearly.
[02:40] <lgc_> Hi. What algorithm is executed to process the password in order to grant access?
[02:41] <SteamMachine> Very slow bootup (no splash screen), scrambled display on logout/shutdown aaaand the tty resolution makes the text too large to read (it goes offscreen)
[02:41] <J-_> When I sdtart up firestarter at boot up it says insufficient privs. Obviously becuase it's not running as root. How can I do so?
[02:42] <mssever> J-_: Is that a GUI? If so, prefix it with gksudo; otherwise, launch it from /etc/rc.local
[02:42] <xp_prg> anyone use ipmasq here?
[02:43] <J-_> mssever: k thanks
[02:44] <kslater> bulmer: no good, sync didn't help
[02:44] <alonea> ok, I tried upgrading to gusty, but it messed up my system so I reformatted root and installed from cd. now it wont go into the system at all (it gets a black screen which reminds me of the few times I tried to install ati binaries manually. envy installed them successfully) unless I go to recovery mode and type in startx
[02:44] <bulmer> kslater-> you were able to change the password ?
[02:45] <bulmer> kslater-> did you verify it first?
[02:45] <SteamMachine> So. Anything? Has anyone had anything similar to this?
[02:45] <CubeXombi> Whats a good lightweight gui that's still fine to use with compiz?
[02:45] <kslater> bulmer: passwd was changed successfully. How would I verify it in single user mode? (only mode that works)
[02:45] <bulmer> kslater-> log in as root?
[02:45] <mssever> SteamMachine: Sounds like a video card issue, maybe...but you probably already knew that. I don't know anything else, though
[02:46] <mssever> CubeXombi: What kind of GUI?
[02:46] <kslater> bulmer: I used the same process to set the root user's password. I have to give that to get to the single user mode prompt now, so I assume it's working the same for the user
[02:46] <SteamMachine> mssever: it does sound like that - except that it's a generic videocard and I don't have any "special" drivers installed.
[02:47] <CubeXombi> mssever, anything thats not gnome, KDE or Fluxbox.. xfce isn't too bad... just looking for other ideas,
[02:47] <alonea> anyone have any ideas? how would I load a generic video driver? in xorg it says the driver is ati
[02:47] <DerangedDingo> anyone here wanna help me try to compile Conky 1.4.8 with RSS?
[02:47] <CubeXombi> alonea what card do you have?
[02:47] <bulmer> kslater then what happens when you get into multi user mode?
[02:47] <alonea> CubeXombi: I have an ati xpress 200m
[02:48] <kslater> can't login with either my userid or root
[02:48] <mssever> CubeXombi: You're looking for a different window manager? Compiz is a window manager, so you could start just Compiz + whatever else you wanted to run
[02:48] <CubeXombi> one sec... you'll need the radeon driver.. I just set that up on y laptop
[02:48] <kslater> bulmer: just says authentication failed
[02:48] <LinuxInside> hey guys
[02:48] <mssever> CubeXombi: Of course, you can only run one wm at a time...
[02:48] <mssever> !hi | LinuxInside
[02:48] <ubotu> LinuxInside: Hi!  But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[02:49] <mssever> CubeXombi: Fluxbox and Compiz are both window managers, so you can't use both at the same time
[02:50] <alonea> CubeXombi: hopefully. had this for a year now and understand the basics pretty much
[02:50] <bulmer> kslater whats the line for root user look like in /etc/passwd ? how about in /etc/shadow? btw you having difficulty logging on as root or a normal user?
[02:50] <CubeXombi> alonea cool.. I'm just going to paste bin what i did myself... It should do the trick for you
[02:51] <kslater> bulmer: only concerned with being able to login with normal user at this point
[02:51] <humblerodent> tekhaw1: hi again, fellow Caleb
[02:51] <humblerodent> :P
[02:51] <CubeXombi> alonea: check this out http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42531/
[02:51] <tekhaw1> hi
[02:51] <Evanlec> anyone know of lightscribe software available for 32-bit?
[02:51] <alonea> CubeXombi: ok, I will give that a shot
[02:51] <kslater> bulmer: root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash for passw
[02:52] <bulmer> kslater what about /etc/shadow
[02:52] <tekhaw1> anyone here do any dvd ripping
[02:52] <dr_dark> holas
[02:52] <xonic1> when i try to connect cisco VPN client i see following error: Secure VPN Connection terminated locally by the Client
[02:52] <xonic1> Reason: Failed to establish a VPN connection.
[02:52] <xonic1> i checked dmesg, but no info there. any idea what might be wrong or where to check for more info
[02:52] <CubeXombi> alonea: I'll stick around for a bit just in case
[02:52] <kslater> bulmer: root:$1<lots of chars>/:13814:0:99999:7:::
[02:52] <alonea> CubeXombi: also, is my problem that gusty tried to put on fglrx or some sort of binary when it installed? (this is a clean system)
[02:52] <emaconline> hello help after upgrading to gutsy
[02:52] <Vibys> hey people, im having a few problems with ccsm, all the tick boxes are grayed out
[02:53] <mssever> xonic1: Try /var/log/syslog and other files in /var/log
[02:53] <tekhaw1> im using DVD:Rip to rip the vobs and i can transcode them i just wanted to know the fastest way to get it back on dvd
[02:53] <ToddEDM> hey guys, i am sharing  my home folder over my network, but when i try to connect to my ubuntu laptop it asks for a login/password , and i dont know what it would be
[02:53] <bulmer> kslater that looks okay
[02:53] <CubeXombi> alonea yup if you are infact using an r200M it's just not supported by the new driver
[02:53] <kslater> could it be that gdm is mucked up somehow?
[02:53] <mssever> ToddEDM: How are you sharing your home dir
[02:53] <bulmer> kslater you may have to use liveCd to recover and set the user passwd
[02:54] <MurielGodoi> Hi, anyone knows the default folder for tomcat webapps in ubuntu?
[02:54] <emaconline> why does the default kernel on the gutsy only gives me a blck screen
[02:54] <alonea> CubeXombi: ah, ok. (and why did they use new if it doesn't work? bah...)
[02:54] <emaconline> the .20 kernel works
[02:54] <ToddEDM> mssever: i just added it to the Shared folders
[02:54] <gnuts> hi, my touchpad stopped working, but buttons still do, any guesses?
[02:54] <mssever> ToddEDM: NFS? Samba? What?
[02:55] <CubeXombi> emaconline, it's the "splash" .. it hung my system for about  minutes .. romove it and you'll be fine
[02:55] <ToddEDM> smb
[02:55] <Vibys> ToddEDM set the password by "sudo smbpasswd -a username"
[02:55] <fatcatmatt> is there a command to remotely shutdown a winxp machine?
[02:55] <emaconline> how do i remove it?
[02:55] <ToddEDM> Vibys: should it take my normal username/password?
[02:55] <CubeXombi> alonea, i wish i knew.. though these drivers do seem to work a fair amount better than the default "ati" do
[02:55] <mssever> ToddEDM: The login username and password are independent from smb
[02:55] <Gargantua> Is git-core on the repos the "git" program?
[02:56] <mssever> ToddEDM: You'll have to use whatever is defind for that machine
[02:56] <xonic1> mssever: no info in /var/log/varlog or messages . any more idea?
[02:56] <mssever> ToddEDM: see /etc/passwd for a hint
[02:56] <Vibys> yes, but i think u can use a different password if u need to
[02:56] <alonea> CubeXombi: also, does it matter that xorg-driver-fglrx wasn't installed in the first place?
[02:56] <gnuts> anyone, a little touchpad help?
[02:56] <aboo0ood> hi all , Gutsy fails to mount the CD/DVD drive , any ideas ?
[02:56] <mssever> xonic1: I've never used VPN, so I'm afraid that was my best guess
[02:57] <CubeXombi> well it wouldn't have helped thats for sure :)
[02:57] <aboo0ood> it says : "mount: special device /dev/hda does not exist"
[02:57] <genefitz> aboo0ood, it doesn't mount the device at all?
[02:57] <gnuts> aboo0ood, is it a sata or ide drive?
[02:57] <mssever> aboo0ood: Is that set up in /dev/fstab? It's probably /dev/sd* in Gutsy
[02:57] <CubeXombi> alonea: well it wouldn't have helped thats for sure :)
[02:58] <aboo0ood> gnuts: SATA i guess
[02:58] <kelvie> does Ubuntu use custom pam modules for sudo?
[02:58] <kelvie> and if so, where can I find the patches for it :P
[02:58] <alonea> CubeXombi: ^__^. thankfully I haven't even tried for fglrx yet. at this point, I just want my system to properly work.
[02:58] <gnuts> so i think it will be labeled as sda not hda in gutsy
[02:58] <gnuts> that is what mine is
[02:58] <aboo0ood> mssever, gnuts , genefitz : this is the line in fstab  : /dev/hda        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
[02:59] <CubeXombi> alonea: i hear ya. i was scratching my head trying to figure out my card only a few days ago..
[02:59] <gnuts> sorry, i was thinking hard drives
[02:59] <mssever> aboo0ood: Try commenting out that line. It should work without an fstab entry
[02:59] <LinuxInside> 7.`10 still have brightness problem on some notebook. it couldn't control brightness with "Fn+"    any1 know about it ?
[03:00] <mssever> aboo0ood: If you really want an fstab entry, you can discover how it mounts when commented and modify fstab accordingly
[03:00] <clusty> hey
[03:00] <gnuts> any ideas why a touchpad would stop from one boot to the next?
[03:00] <alonea> CubeXombi: yeah, I had it all good, but then gusty came and I had to get the latest. ^^;;; I will brb
[03:00] <LinuxInside> no1 know?
[03:00] <aboo0ood> mssever: i need to reboot i guess , but i have a problem in my kernel , it acts nondeterministically , most of the times it gives me sth like : Disabling irq #20
[03:01] <CubeXombi> alonea: Same here.. no sweat..
[03:01] <aboo0ood> mssever: other times it works fine
[03:01] <mssever> aboo0ood: Sounds like flaky hardware
[03:02] <aboo0ood> mssever: i used to face the same problem in Feisty , googling the problem gave me an indication that it's a kernel bug
[03:02] <aboo0ood> mssever: i am rebooting anyways :) brb
[03:02] <clusty> on packages.ubuntu.com i can find libboost-date-time 1.33 as version but i have installed 1.34 (but no 1.33 available) any idea how this can be?
[03:02] <xonic1> lot of people are not able to use cisco vpn..it doeesnt connect. is  there any alternative of cisco vpn client?
[03:02] <LinuxInside> mssever: do u know that 7.`10 still have brightness problem on some notebook. it couldn't control brightness with "Fn+"
[03:02] <mssever> clusty: Are you using any third-party repositories?
[03:03] <clegane> what's the best way of moving a bunch of files between two fresh gutsy installs over an X-over cable? scp?
[03:03] <Dr_willis> clegane,  thats one way.
[03:03] <clusty> mssever, nope. stuff enabled from synaptic
[03:03] <mssever> LinuxInside: Hmm...Works on mine. Dunno what to tell you
[03:03] <emaconline> hello
[03:03] <clusty> mssever, no extra manually added
[03:03] <Dr_willis> clegane,  i tend to use the 'fusessh' tools.
[03:03] <genefitz> LinuxInside, brightness Fn works on my gateway
[03:03] <gnuts> one more try, my touchpad doesn't work all of a sudden, though the buttons still do, last boot it was fine. any ideas?
[03:03] <emaconline> back.. so just need to delete the 'splash' and the .22 kernel works?
[03:03] <emaconline> how?
[03:04] <clegane> dr_willis, alrighty, thanks for the tip
[03:04] <Dr_willis> emaconline,  could use the 'nosplash' option to the kernel
[03:04] <mssever> clusty: I think that there's a tab in synaptic that will tell you where a particular package is coming from
[03:04] <CubeXombi> emaconline "sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst"
[03:04] <LinuxInside> mssever:  what notebook u have
[03:04] <MurielGodoi> Hi, anyone knows the default folder for tomcat webapps in ubuntu?
[03:04] <dustin> If anyone can help i have no idea what else to try: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42532/
[03:04] <mssever> LinuxInside: HP Compaz nx9010
[03:05] <clusty> mssever, universe
[03:05] <mssever> clusty: Hmm.. Dunno
[03:05] <emaconline> btw, is this right? kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=ae815366-d9ef-42a3-aa0e-30e03ed5c53b ro quiet splash
[03:05] <jrib> dustin: pastebin /var/lib/dpkg/info/netatalk.*
[03:05] <LinuxInside> genefitz: maybe only my notebook have the problem
[03:05] <mssever> MurielGodoi: Dunno about Tomcat, but Apache's default webroot is under /var/www
[03:05] <Dr_willis> emaconline,  change splash to 'nosplash'
[03:06] <emaconline> shouldnt it be root=/dev/sdb1 ?
[03:06] <pga> If /dev/hda is for EIDE , /dev/sda is for SCSI drives, what is the cmd for SATA drives?
[03:06] <Dr_willis> emaconline,  no idea on that part.
[03:06] <CubeXombi> emaconline ( yup) and yes you can do that too
[03:06] <dustin> jrib: what is that?
[03:06] <Dr_willis> emaconline,  that uuid might be pointing at /dev/sdb1
[03:06] <jrib> dustin: the scripts that are failing
[03:06] <emaconline> oh ok
[03:06] <talsemgeest> I have sata and it sda
[03:06] <genefitz> LinuxInside, it may be, wish I could be more help
[03:06] <dustin> jrib: no i mean what do i do with that? is it a command line thing or what?
[03:06] <emaconline> Dr_Willis so i just need to edit that to nosplash and that will work?
[03:07] <pga> talsemgeest wouldn't that overlap if you were to use SATA and SCSI drives both under 1 pc?
[03:07] <LinuxInside> genefitz: if u wish
[03:07] <jrib> dustin: /var/lib/dpkg/info/netatalk.* is a glob meaning files in /var/lib/dpkg/info/ that start with "netatalk".  Open them in a text editor and show us the contents
[03:07] <talsemgeest> doesnt it just go sda1, sda2....
[03:07] <rb007> I just installed Gutsy.  I'm trying to edit files over FTP with Quanta -- In previous versions I could hit Ctrl-s and save live to the remote server, but this version is saving to /var/tmp/... and only uploads after I close the editor.  Is there a way I can get it to open files live over ftp?
[03:08] <aboo0ood> mssever: i rebooted , what's next ?
[03:08] <Kalumba> mssever, I've done what you asked me to do and it stops at the "Will now halt" and then it waits forever
[03:08] <pga> talsemgeest it's pointless to says sda1 and sda2 .. since they don't use master/slave drive like EIDE does.
[03:08] <kslater> what init mode has a non-graphical login? 3, isn't it?
[03:08] <kurisukun> Hey folks!
[03:08] <mssever> aboo0ood: After commenting the CD line in fstab, can you mount?
[03:09] <jrib> kurisukun: 2-5 are identical on debian and ubuntu.  What are you trying to do?
[03:09] <talsemgeest> I think it just does a best guess and makes the decision so it can work like that
[03:09] <mssever> Kalumba: Do you have any network partitions mounted?
[03:09] <Kalumba> mssever, no
[03:09] <jrib> kslater: 2-5 are identical on debian and ubuntu.  What are you trying to do?
[03:09] <MurielGodoi> mssever: There isn't /var/www here... thanks anyway
[03:09] <LJ> your mom and dad are here, kur?
[03:09] <corevette> how do i install aiglx for ubuntu
[03:09] <aboo0ood> mssever: u mean using terminal ? mmm i am trying to issue a mount /dev/hda /media/cdrom command but there's no /dev/hda here
[03:09] <mssever> Kalumba: Are you using wireless?
[03:09] <Kalumba> mssever, yes
[03:10] <CubeXombi> Corvette what card so you have?
[03:10] <kurisukun> My issue is with Video playback.  It appears to be a local machine issue.  Regardless of the player I'm in, the video will not display.
[03:10] <kslater> jrib: trying to prove that my password change is working, without involving gdm
 Which card?
[03:10] <mssever> aboo0ood: I mean by just inserting the CD (Assuming you're using Gnome)
[03:10] <jrib> dustin: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netatalk/+bug/109917 by the way
[03:10] <Kalumba> mssever, Intel 3945 wireless chipset with restricted drivers
[03:10] <nbug> i just upgraded an amd64 system to gutsy, and i have the problem described here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=585635, and here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/128803 does anyone have a fix yet?
[03:10] <jrib> kslater: why not just hit ctrl-alt-f1?
[03:10] <corevette> cubexombi: ATI Radeon X1300, i just installed the latest version that includes AIGLX support
[03:10] <aboo0ood> mssever: yes i am using Gnome but it's not mounting it
[03:11] <kslater> jrib: doh!
[03:11] <Kalumba> mssever, and an ATI X1600 graphics card
[03:11] <corevette> cubeoxombi: it still says composite not available when i try to enable it
[03:11] <mssever> Kalumba: I've had problems with wireless getting shutdown before something (NFS in my case) that needed it
[03:11] <kurisukun> I found a workaround where I can get it to display by starting it, changing workspaces, selecting another window, and then changing back to the workspace where the video is playing.  but as soon as I give that window focus again, the video disappears.  Sound familiar to anyone?
[03:11] <kslater> had ldap in fiesty and now after upgrade and removing libnss-ldap, libpam-ldap system isn't too good
[03:11] <Kalumba> mssever, how to change the shutdown order to fix that issue?
[03:12] <mssever> Kalumba: I had to fiddle with the init scripts
[03:12] <CubeXombi> alonea: and?
[03:12] <alonea> CubeXombi: nope. no luck. what confuses me if is I goto recovery mode and type in startx the system starts up fine, though it is root, but yet it doesn't load if I just load it normally under grub.
[03:12] <Kalumba> mssever, at this point I am willing to watch 10 minutes of Brittany Spears to get this sucker to work properly
[03:12] <pga> talsemgeest If fdisk is used to create a partition, so does /etc/fstab, right?
 I've seen people having good luck following this http://forlong.blogage.de/article/2007/10/23/fglrx-8423---finally-with-AIGLX-support
[03:12] <mssever> Kalumba: The init scripts live in /etc/init.d, and on shutdown, you're interested in runlevels 0 and 6
[03:12] <brad016> is there a way I can run a Windows XP partition in vmware player
[03:12] <kurisukun> Lets see here...  not sure how to gather my system specs yet either to let you know what my graphics card and such is...
[03:13] <Dr_willis> pga,  fstab defines what gets mounted where
[03:13] <mssever> Kalumba: Additionally, Ubuntu's upstart _might_ be a factor
[03:13] <CubeXombi> well.. can you pastebin you xorg.conf?
[03:13] <aboo0ood> mssever: any ideas ?
[03:13] <Dr_willis> brad016,  its doable. but requires manual editing of the vmware virtual machine config files
[03:13] <mssever> Kalumba: Basically, it's quite complex. It took me a long time to solve my problem
[03:13] <Dr_willis> brad016,  saw some articals on the web about doing that. and it will confuse your XP install. since the hardware will all be changed
[03:13] <mssever> aboo0ood: one minute...
[03:13] <Dr_willis> brad016,  which can trigger the xp reactivation stuff
[03:13] <pga> If fdisk is used to create a partition, so does /etc/fstab, right?
[03:13] <alonea> CubeXombi: sure, note that I reconfigured it back to default. gimmie a sec.
[03:14] <Kalumba> mssever, I am persistant now that I have a possible convert (my little sister) depending on it
[03:14] <CubeXombi> alonea no problem
[03:14] <Dr_willis> pga,  fstab has NOTHING to do with 'creating' partitions. it defins where partitions are mounted to.
[03:14] <brad016> Dr_willis, I never had to activate it, its a dell oem so...
[03:14] <holycow> does anyone know where user profiles are stored in gutsy that the useradd applet uses?  there is nothing in /etc/skel to indicate why its doing silly things ... where can i look to change its settings?
[03:14] <pga> Dr_willis cheers.
[03:14] <Dr_willis> brad016,  try putting it in a totally different machine.. and i bet there will be issues.
[03:14] <jrib> holycow: what do you mean by "useradd applet"?
[03:14] <arbeck23> i'm having trouble with compiz.  When I move things to a second desktop, they don't always leave the window list bar of the other desktop
[03:14] <holycow> under system/admin
[03:15] <Dr_willis> brad016,  good luck. :)
[03:15] <Marfi> hey hey! im trying to do an archival backup of a TON of music. what would be the best way to compress many portions?
[03:15] <jrib> holycow: define "silly things"
[03:15] <Marfi> i have around 60 gigs im gonna compress. =)
[03:15] <brad016> Dr_willis, can you give me a link to the thing
[03:15] <mssever> Kalumba: The best that I can suggest is that you first learn how init scripts work (Google it--it's too involved to explain here) and then work through the process of elimination to find the culprit
[03:15] <Haexlin> yah fstab is a way to simplify mounting for later use
[03:15] <brad016> Dr_willis, or what you gooogled
[03:15] <holycow> jrib: its adding folders that arent in /etc/skel
[03:15] <Dr_willis> brad016,  not really. I just saw the artical on some linxu site. I know better then to even try it. :) I got a nice clean xp setup for my vmware needs.
[03:15] <pga> What does >> gksu "update manager -c" do? Upgrade my distribution?
[03:15] <jrib> holycow: what folders
[03:15] <mssever> Kalumba: I just got an idea: Disable wireless and go wired. If you can shut down normally, than you know wireless is the culprit
[03:16] <holycow> . /music /documents /crap, etc
[03:16] <alonea> CubeXombi: http://pastebin.ca/753305
[03:16] <Kalumba> mssever, I'm checking now
[03:16] <Haexlin> .
[03:16] <brad016> Dr_willis, okay well thanks, but its a new installation, i just need it for my ipod and itunes downloads
[03:16] <CubeXombi> alonea thanks I'll be a sec
[03:16] <brad016> Dr_willis, I got a iTouch
[03:16] <alonea> CubeXombi: no problem.
[03:16] <LJ> Holycow. holycow. holycow
[03:16] <jrib> holycow: read comments in /etc/xdg/user-dirs.conf I am guessing
[03:16] <Dr_willis> brad016,  thers alternatives to itunes on linux i hear. I dont want/have/or need an ipod. So cant help ya in that area.
[03:17] <mssever> aboo0ood: try /dev/cdrom, /dev/cdrom0, /dev/hd* (whatever options may be possible), /dev/sd*, etc, until you find the one that works
[03:17] <pga> Dr_willis What does >> gksu "update manager -c" do? Upgrade my distribution?
[03:17] <MikesHardLinux> i just installed 7.10 64-bit and wanted to verify that I actually am in 64-bit mode. uname -r gives me "2.6.22-14-generic". How can I tell if I am using the 64-bit kernel?
[03:17] <Dr_willis> pga,  that would be my guess. :)
[03:17] <mssever> aboo0ood: You _might_ find some useful symlinks under /dev/disk
[03:17] <Evanlec> MikesHardLinux, uname -a
[03:17] <kurisukun> Ah-hah!  I found a fix.  Thank you for... Well... missing my issue ^_^
[03:17] <alonea> also note CubeXombi that I am on kde, not gnome, not that it makes much difference here.
[03:18] <MikesHardLinux> Thanks Evanlec!!
[03:18] <kurisukun> (as a side note, the problem was the visual effects, turning off the wobbly windows and the cube fixed everything right up)
[03:18] <LJ> Holycow. holycow. holycowcowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
[03:18] <CubeXombi> alonea: k, also what does it show when do yo an "lspci" ?
[03:18] <kurisukun> toodles!
[03:18] <brad016> Dr_willis, well itunes is the biggest internet music store, ipods look cool, who doesn;t like apple, and if you can tell me another device that can play 5 hours of video on a multiTouch screen I'd like to see it :)
[03:18] <kurisukun> exit
[03:18] <brad016> Dr_willis, and yes, I eat shit for breakfast
[03:18] <alonea> CubeXombi: umm, type that in terminal. (I know that sounds familiar, but working on a couple hours sleep at moment)

[03:19] <holycow> jrib: that looks like its it actually, thank you very kindly sir
[03:19] <xp_prg> anyone use firestarter here?

[03:20] <ToddEDM> is there any "killer apps " that are not pre installed on Ubuntu?
[03:20] <Dr_willis> brad016,  ive totally boycotted all music - untill the record industry stops sueing grandmas :)
[03:20] <ToddEDM> just name some of the cool programs you guys use
[03:20] <mssever> ToddEDM: Depends on what interests you...
[03:20] <ToddEDM> anything
[03:20] <alonea> I am happy with my gigabeat with rockbox installed.
[03:20]  * Dr_willis posts Youtube videos that have titles of prince songs, just to annoy prince.
[03:21] <vasuvi> Somehow I managed to screw up GNOME so the top and bottom bar don't appear any more; any way to get them back?  (In Gutsy BTW)
[03:21] <mssever> ToddEDM: I use mplayer instead of totem, and right now I'm enjoying FVWM Crystal and IceWM for a light desktop
[03:21] <brad016> Dr_willis, I hear you, and i love bittorent for movies, videos, and Leopard, but I like my music to be high quality and legit
[03:21] <ItsaMeMario> mssever, it was not the wireless. I am going to test and see if it is the restricted ATI X1600 driver
[03:21] <CubeXombi> alonea .. i may have some bad news for you.. it apears you've got the forsaken video card..
[03:21] <jrib> kslater: haven't seen that.  Seems like you are an the right track with "removing libnss-ldap, libpam-ldap system isn't too good".  Have to go now, but hope you sort it out
[03:21] <Evanlec> i dotn spose anyone knows where i can find lightscribe software that works on 64-bit?
[03:21] <maquinax> hi, im having trouble with my display, all windows are blurry :(
[03:22] <CubeXombi> alonea, in otherwords 2D accessaration only
[03:22] <brad016> maquinax, like vista
[03:22] <alonea> CubeXombi: oh, I figured. it is truly an evil thing that I successfully got 3d to work perfectly on fiesty.

[03:22] <venice> where are the initial certificates for ssh located when it creates them?
[03:22] <kslater> can someone pastebin the default /etc/nsswitch.conf?
[03:22] <maquinax> brad016, nope, not like vista, like the window is not refreshing so i get several version of the same window one upon the other
[03:22] <Evanlec> LJ, you're gonna get booted real soon
[03:22] <MattJ> ToddEDM: Amarok (music), Inkscape (graphics), epiphany-browser (web browser), VLC (video/DVD player), Gajim (Jabber client)
[03:22] <maquinax> and i cand read
[03:22] <kslater> for gusty?
[03:22] <Dr_willis> brad016,  what even is legal any more is the issue.  Aparently the Music Biz. sayd if you buy a cd. you dont have the right to play it on your ipod.. if you buy music for your ipod you dont have the right to burn the tunes to cd.. aparently just playing Music loudly is a public preformance and illeagle in some areas. :)

[03:23] <adante> Dr_willis: just tried, same result

[03:24] <xp_prg> hi all I am trying to use firestarter to share my wireless connection, but the available network devices only show eth0 and eth1, which one is my wireless device?
[03:24] <sjovan> good idee :)
[03:24] <sjovan> thanx
[03:24] <brack10> having trouble getting amarok to work on gutsy....installed it with synaptic, then installed mp3 plugin but I still get "some media could not be loaded (not playable)" when trying to play mp3s.  nobody in #amarok seems to know what to do

[03:24] <adante> Dr_willis: is this because it is a sda device and not hda?
[03:24] <sjovan>  Dr_willis: i did look at the site when i installed it. maby i should give it another look. thanx for reminding me :)
[03:24] <xp_prg> I think it is eth1

[03:25] <Dr_willis> adante,  you bring up a good point.. Not sure. But that may be the case
[03:25] <Cpudan80> brack10: You need to add MP3 support to amarok, it doesn't come with it. Why you are using a very bloated media player is beyond me... but... those pages have directions for adding mp3 to amarok
[03:25] <Dr_willis> sjoerd,  irssi is the kind of tool ya just gotta read/use/learn/reread :)
[03:25] <CubeXombi> alonea I've seen people having good luck following this http://forlong.blogage.de/article/2007/10/23/fglrx-8423---finally-with-AIGLX-support,

[03:26] <maquinax> hey can anyone help me know why this is happening? this is a screenshot of my screen :( i enabled compiz and now my display is broken http://img340.imageshack.us/img340/1155/screenshotpu8.png
[03:26] <Kalumba> mssever, well there is a difference when I turn off the restricted driver: with the open one the fan is quiet while the restricted one goes at full blast. Both hang at shutdown though
[03:26] <alonea> CubeXombi: at the time being, I would like to get into my system regardless of what kind of video support. 2d is good for now if thats the easiest to get.
[03:26] <CubeXombi> alonea: I wouldn't .. it says you "should" be able o get it working using the ATI driver.. "Should" though doesn't mean can..
[03:26] <Davo_Dinkum> How can I configure the gconf mime-type handling so that files download into the user's home directory and not /tmp/? Files downloaded with firefox in particular. (gnome v2.14.1)
[03:26] <maquinax> i cannot read the fonts or anything, and the window title gets corrupted
[03:26] <taggig> how do i automaticly mount my /media disks at startup?
[03:27] <brack10> which player would you recomend cpudan80?
[03:27] <maquinax> it seems like anything that has white as its collor gets translucent
[03:27] <CubeXombi> alonea for that you can do a "sodo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" that will pring you back to default
[03:27] <alonea> CubeXombi: yeah, have no idea what happened. never had a clean install do this. :'(
[03:27] <brack10> recommend*
[03:27] <CubeXombi> alonea: typo there sudo"
[03:27] <Cpudan80> brack10: Something that doesn't depend on KDE --- banshee is good
[03:27] <alonea> CubeXombi: that is the default that I sent you.
[03:27] <taggig> how do i automaticly mount my /media disks at startup?
[03:27] <Dr_willis> taggig,  the /etc/fstab file defines what gets mounted where.  'sudo mount -a' will reread the fstab and mount the automounted entrys
[03:27] <alonea> CubeXombi: its not working with the default. thats been the problem.
[03:27] <fatcatmatt> how do i run a .pl file in terminal?  (vmware-install.pl)
[03:27] <mssever> Kalumba: There's a magic SysRq key combo, which I don't recall, that is supposed to give you a shell. If you can use that combo, you might be able to find out what's still running, and therefore blocking the shutdown
[03:27] <Cpudan80> brack10: amarok doesn't run well in gnome because it is dependent on KDE libraries

[03:33] <taggig> Dr_willis, how do i fix it then?
[03:33] <Cpudan80> fatcatmatt: you'll have to look at the script to see what it does
[03:34] <alonea> CubeXombi: well, at this point I might just go back to Fiesty since Gusty is a complete no go.
[03:34] <CubeXombi> alonea well ATI says you should be ok with the new 8.42.3 driver release.. I'm just getting the how to cleaned up for you
[03:34] <alonea> CubeXombi: though if you have another idea, maybe it will work. hmm, ya know, in the past, envy has always worked for me.
[03:34] <genefitz> Alonea: what notebook are you using?
[03:34] <alonea> CubeXombi: I might give that a shot, though if it fails it means I gotta reformat, at least in the past I did.
[03:35] <CubeXombi> alonea you could giveit a shot
[03:35] <sahil>  has anyone gotten convert lit to work under gusty?
[03:35] <alonea> genefitz: HP Pavillion dv8113cl
[03:35] <CubeXombi> lemme get this to you as a last resort though..
[03:35] <alonea> CubeXombi: alrighty
[03:35] <taggig> Dr_willis, how do i fix it then?
[03:35] <Dr_willis> taggig,  fix what exactly?
[03:35] <taggig> Dr_willis, mount at startup
[03:35] <genefitz> Alonea: I just did a fresh load of Ubuntu Gutsy on my gateway with an Xpress 200M, and graphics loaded without issue.
[03:35] <genefitz> Note I didn't have graphic effects.
[03:36] <BaD-CrC> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=584494 <--- help?
[03:36] <nemo__> hello, how can I uninstall wrong wifi drivers?
[03:36] <taggig> Dr_willis, so i dont need to manually mount my /media disks...
[03:36] <genefitz> Do you think it may have just been a bad burn or a bad load?
[03:36] <CubeXombi> alonea you could giveit a shot
[03:36] <maquinax> alonea,  i instaled the 8.42.3 driver with my atii and even though it worked, scrolling was really slow, the performance for 3d sucked, i would stay away from it
[03:36] <alonea> genefitz: I dunno, on this laptop, this version of it has been a curse
[03:36] <mssever> taggig: man fstab
[03:36] <CubeXombi> alonea http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42533/ It's quick it's dirty but after it reboots you'l now
[03:36] <Dr_willis> taggig,  your question is vague. ANY thing in /etc/fstab will get mounted at startup.  There are also 'mount on the fly' features of Gnome/KDE. If you want somthing to always get mounted. You make a entry for it in /etc/fstab
[03:37] <wers> !mac
[03:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mac - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[03:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about osx - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:37] <alonea> maquinax: well, I can't get even 2d. I can't get anything. I just installed the system.
[03:37] <Dr_willis> taggig,  that may cause issues with removeable media in some cases however.

[03:37] <genefitz> Alonea, if nothing else works, I would try a re-burn of Ubuntu, at a low speed, and try a fresh load to see if maybe it may have been just a load error.
[03:37] <maquinax> alonea, which card are you using?
[03:37] <genefitz> Because as I said, it is running like a charm on my computer.
[03:37] <nemo__> hello, how can I uninstall wrong wifi drivers?
[03:37] <taggig> Dr_willis, so i just enter like /media/hd5 and it will be fixed?
[03:37] <CubeXombi> alonea: check the filenames though if you can .. I'm just editing an old script
 hi
[03:38] <mssever> nemo__: How did you install them?
[03:38] <nemo__> msserver, it got installed by itseft.
[03:38] <alonea> maquinax: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon XPRESS 200M 5955 (PCIE)
[03:38] <Dr_willis> taggig,  the fstab file has a specific format of its entryes. You may want to read up on it.   You are still a bit vague on exactly what you are wanting to mount.
[03:38] <adminn> video[1002:5d4f @ Intel Corporation 915G/P/GV/GL/PL/910GL Processor to I/O Controller]
[03:38] <maquinax> alonea, oh, then the new drivers should help you :)
[03:38] <alonea> maquinax: DRI R300 is opengl vendor string
[03:38] <Dr_willis> taggig,  you have a specific hard drive you want to get mounted? or somthing else?
[03:38] <mssever> nemo__: Well, no. Something installed it
[03:38] <mssever> brb
[03:38] <brack10> I'lll try one more time... I've tried installing the mp3 plugin within amarok, manually installing libxine1-ffmpeg and also installing the kubuntu restricted formats package and I still get an error message in amarok trying to play mp3 files.....
[03:39] <maquinax> alonea, do you get anything in the display right now?
[03:39] <brack10> I've tried restarting amarok of course btw
[03:39] <nemo__> the ubuntu installation program
[03:39] <Jimdb> taggig: paste what you have so we can see it
[03:39] <CubeXombi> maquinax, yeah I just sent alonea some instuctions.. from a fresh install there's no X
[03:39] <maquinax> nemo__, why do you want to uninstall them?
[03:39] <alonea> maquinax: when I start my system, its a black screen, unless I goto recovery mode and type in startx
[03:39] <CubeXombi> alonea!
[03:39] <CubeXombi> that i know
[03:40] <CubeXombi> It's not your drivers at all!
[03:40] <alonea> CubeXombi: uuwa? wha?
[03:40] <CubeXombi> alonea.. it's the usplash.. it dies on many boots..
[03:40] <alonea> CubeXombi: haven't done anything damaging yet.
[03:40] <mssever> nemo__: Either blacklist the module or figure out which package installed it and remove that one
[03:40] <alonea> CubeXombi: ok, how do I fix that.
[03:40] <maquinax> alonea,  yeah, that doesnt seem like an X problem
[03:41] <CubeXombi> alonea: open your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:41] <Kalumba> mssever, I have checked the /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq file and it only has "1" in it which according to the manual means "1 - enable all functions of sysrq", but when it stops during shutdown the magic keys don't work :(
[03:41] <nemo__> how do I do that?
[03:41] <taggig> Dr_willis, my satadisk with like music and stuff on
[03:41] <nemo__> looking at the package manager?
[03:41] <alonea> CubeXombi: ok
[03:41] <CubeXombi> you have to be root (or sudo gedit or whatever
[03:41] <alonea> CubeXombi: I am logged into the system as root.
[03:41] <Jimdb> TAGGIG:   PASTE WHAT YOU HAVE
[03:41] <mssever> nemo__: The blacklist is at /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[03:41] <maquinax> nemo__,  is the wireless driver causing issues for you? generally if you do not have the hardware the drivers dont even get loaded
[03:41] <alonea> CubeXombi: no sudo necessary
[03:42] <mssever> You can use lsmod to find out the module name
[03:42] <mssever> nemo__: You can use lsmod to find out the module name
[03:42] <nemo__> the hw is there
[03:42] <CubeXombi> even better .. in your Kernel line (the one you use to boot .. just erase the word splash
[03:42] <nemo__> let me see...
[03:42] <cesar__> why does my sound not goddamn work on vlc and movie player?
[03:42] <mssever> Or, search in Synaptic for your driver and uninstall it
[03:42] <cesar__> i just removed my tv card, it fixed it, and now it won't work again
[03:42] <brack10> nevermind screw amarok
[03:42] <brack10> banshee is 200 times better
[03:42] <cesar__> i mean it works on movie player, but not on VLC
[03:43] <Jimdb> brack10:  what's banshee?
[03:43] <icefyre> hi guys
[03:43] <alonea> ok, brb, gonna restart and pray
[03:43] <icefyre> I'm having issues upgrading to gusty
[03:43] <MurielGodoi> Hi, any1 knows how to fix the problem when running a java swing application under compiz?
[03:43] <cesar__> i think the name gusty has stuck, let's rename the distro
[03:43] <Kalumba> Jimdb, it is either a graphics card by now dfunct 3dfx or a nasty lady you should avoid
[03:43] <CubeXombi> alonea: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=/dev/hda1 ro quiet is what mine looks like.
[03:43] <min2> Hello, I need help with a network problem.  I am running ubuntu 7.10 with a built-in nvidia gigabit network controller and I am only getting 8 MB/S transfer to a fileserver running linux samba.  I get 40+ MB/S with windows dual booted on the same machine.  Any ideas?
[03:44] <mssever> Kalumba: I had similar problems, too. I don't know what to tell you, other than keep trying various things. It me several weeks to get my issue sorted out and yours clearly is a different matter entirely
[03:44] <John_is_it> can somebody help me
[03:44] <John_is_it> i hae installed ubuntu 7.10
[03:44] <icefyre> when I try to upgrade to gusty the update manager says it fails to acquire a package
[03:44] <CubeXombi> Alonea, you won't get the prety little splash screen taht you are supposed to be sing but your machine will probably love you for it
[03:44] <John_is_it> when ubuntu is loading my monitor turns off
[03:44] <Kalumba> mssever, darn! This is not going to make my sister happy.
[03:44] <John_is_it> how can i change the screen resolution when ubuntu is loading
[03:44] <mssever> Kalumba: Does the sysrq sequence E I S U B successfully reboot your machine when it hangs
[03:45] <min2> any ideas on the network isse?
[03:45] <asrnet> I have a ati 9600xt and I cannot change the driver from VESA to fglrx. Trying to get tv out working.
[03:45] <Kalumba> mssever, I'm going to try now....by George! It does!
 try removing the "splash" or use "nosplash" in your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:46] <dell> hi
[03:46] <Kalumba> mssever, erm...correction: It works in Gnome itself
[03:46] <John_is_it> ok thanks
[03:46] <mssever> Kalumba: And you're running with the splash and quiet boot options disabled, right?
[03:46] <mssever> Kalumba: But what about from the hung state?
[03:47] <Kalumba> mssever, checking...
[03:47] <dell> hi
[03:47] <mssever> !hi | dell
[03:47] <ubotu> dell: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:47] <mesaboogie> hi
[03:47] <genefitz> Just out of curiosity, has anyone notices a slightly longer boot-up time for Gutsy than you did with Feisty?
[03:47] <Kalumba> mssever, no response
[03:47] <dell> my dogs name is booogi
[03:47] <vasuvi> Any idea why gnome-appearance-properties would monopolize my CPU, and what could be the cause of it?
[03:48] <mesaboogie> yes..
[03:48] <genefitz> It seems to take longer on my computer to bot Gutsy than it did Feisty.
[03:48] <CubeXombi> genefitz, once i disabled the splash no.... but prior to that i was going on 7 minutes
[03:48] <mssever> Kalumba: I'm sure there's a bug just waiting to be reported, but what is it? :-( That's pretty annoying
[03:48] <CubeXombi> I'm now down to about a 40-5 second boot.
[03:49] <min2> Hello, I need help with a network problem.  I am running ubuntu 7.10 with a built-in nvidia gigabit network controller and I am only getting 8 MB/S transfer to a fileserver running linux samba.  I get 40+ MB/S with windows dual booted on the same machine.  Please Help!
[03:49] <Alonea> CubeXombi: *smooch*
[03:49] <genefitz> CubeXombi, how do I do that?
[03:49] <CubeXombi> alonea I take it that it worked!
[03:49] <mssever> min2: Probably related to your driver, but that's all I know
[03:49] <genefitz> Sorry, I missed it.
 try removing the "splash" or use "nosplash" in your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:50] <Alonea> CubeXombi: yeshum! arigatou! happy camper now
[03:50] <gandalfcome>  Trouble with my new fglrx driver, When in gnome-failsafe mode the driver works, In normal mode it doesnt really load the flgrx driver. complains about not being able to initialize gtk+ in .xsession-errors.  I really have no idea
[03:50] <Jimdb> Well, i"m looking at Banshee and tho it seems competent it isn't complete and has many noticeable bugs--that one notices up front.
[03:51] <Alonea> CubeXombi: I really do love the fact how you can format your root and not your home and pretty much keep everything.
[03:51] <min2> msserver:  last question - do you know how to disable ip6 support?
[03:51] <CubeXombi> alonea.. whole heartedly agree with that!
[03:51] <Alonea> CubeXombi: windows reinstalls were always a pain. took hours to get everything back where on linux it takes a few minutes.
[03:51] <lloy0076> What package(s) contain the standard C libraries in Gutsy?
[03:51] <gcarrillo> hey guys, whats the way to tell the free space on the hard disk in gutsy?
[03:51] <mssever> min2: I know how to do it in Firefox, but not system-wide
[03:51] <gcarrillo> isnt there a new graphical way to do it?
[03:51] <min2> thanks
[03:51] <mssever> gcarrillo: df
[03:51] <Alonea> CubeXombi: now, I do have to always refix my wifi card, but thats just one thing.
[03:52] <MurielGodoi> hi, Has any1 fixed java window problems under compiz?
[03:52] <gcarrillo> mssever: thx, but i was thinking of the pie chart way
[03:52] <mssever> MurielGodoi: Yeah, one moment
[03:52] <CubeXombi> alonea, good luck with that! .. that's my next step
[03:52] <CubeXombi> now i's time for coffee though!
[03:53] <asrnet> I have a ati 9600xt and I cannot change the driver from VESA to fglrx. This happened after changing resolutions on my monitor. Any ideas?
[03:53] <genefitz> CubeXombi, Just add it onto the end? Because after doing a quick look for splash, all I can find is "quietsplash"
[03:53] <mssever> MurielGodoi: put AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit in your /etc/profile, log out, then back in
[03:53] <CubeXombi> genfitz, erase the word splash
[03:53] <Dr_willis> mssever,  cool. Been looking for that fix. :)
[03:53] <Dr_willis> mssever,  no need to 'export' it?
[03:53] <MurielGodoi> mssever: i will do that tkxs
[03:53] <Alonea> CubeXombi: I have done it so many times before that its not too big of a deal. anyway, I am going to get some much needed sleep. night love!
[03:53] <CubeXombi> genefitz, erase the word splash it should be saying Blablabla.. ro quiet splash
[03:54] <loony> hum.. I got a pcmcia sound card on my laptop.. the integrated sound card works.. but there is no sound coming out on the pcmcia one.. on their web page there is no linux driver.. where can I find one? could it be that its allready installed and that I only need to enable it and disable the integrated one?
[03:54] <CubeXombi> Alonea night
[03:54] <mssever> Dr_willis: MurielGodoi I goofed. it's export AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit
[03:54] <sjovan> okay... i'm trying to get irssi to autoconnect to channels. why doesn't this work ---> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42536/ <--- for /etc/irssi.conf

[03:54] <sjovan> from /etc... *
[03:54] <genefitz> CubeXolmbi, just change # defoptions=quiet splash to # defoptions=quiet ?
[03:54] <Kalumba> mssever, lots of weird text shows up, but nothing which can give a clue to what is causing the problems
[03:54] <Dr_willis> mssever,  heh - thats ok. :)
[03:54] <mssever> Kalumba: Grr...
[03:54] <Greencookie> Someone please help me configure my video card. I've been trying for the past month now.
[03:55] <CubeXombi> genefitz yup and as well if you have it in your kernel line.. Here's mine
[03:55] <epax> !ati | asrnet

[03:55] <Greencookie> I tried installing the binary driver, but failed.
[03:55] <loony> anyone that could help me?
[03:55] <Kalumba> mssever,  there is a <WARN> nm_hal_deinit() libhal shutdown failed - Connection is closed
[03:55] <epax> Greencookie: What card do you have?
[03:55] <Jimdb> greencookie:  all the drivers are binary but they may be open source or closed (done by the manufacturer)
[03:56] <Kalumba> mssever, and it is all coming from the NetworkManager
[03:56] <threeseas> ubuntu 7.10 internet speed sucks'
[03:56] <genefitz> okay, done. wish me luck :-)
[03:56] <sjovan> hey... what's the -unregged part all about?
[03:56] <mssever> Kalumba: In that case, try to manually kill NetworkManager (and maybe hal) before rebooting

I got a pcmcia sound card on my laptop.. the integrated sound card works.. but there is no sound coming out on the pcmcia one.. on their web page there is no linux driver.. where can I find one? could it be that its allready installed and that I only need to enable it and disable the integrated one?
[03:57] <Jimdb> is there an x-fi card driver for 32bit yet?
[03:57] <sjovan> okay... i'm trying to get irssi to autoconnect to channels. why doesn't this work ---> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42536/ <--- for /etc/irssi.conf
[03:57] <Greencookie> epax, Jimdb: I have an ATI card I guess. I tried the binary drivers but they didn't work on my Gutsy.
[03:58] <Jimdb> greencookie:  you mean you tried the drivers from the ATI site?
[03:58] <e2> What repo has alsa 1.0.15 as i have hda-intel soundcard? Running gutsy 64bit. tia
[03:59] <qazwsx> is pdf2ps broken?
[03:59] <qazwsx> is pdf2ps broken in the latest ubuntu?
[03:59] <Greencookie> Nopes. I installed flgrx i guess (cuz it shows up in the driver's list) and when I try to use it, X crashes making me do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.
[03:59] <Jimdb> greencookie:  btw, how did your cookies become green?
[03:59] <Kalumba> mssever, on a unrelated subject: I installed Startup Manager to see what services were being started upon boot. For some strange reason the Nvidia-kernel was there and activated. That is strange considering that I have an ATI card
[03:59] <Greencookie> Jimdb: lol Jim, I made them with special 'herbs' ;)
[03:59] <genefitz> making mental note to buy CubeXombi a beer or something...
[03:59] <Greencookie> Jimdb: The kind that gets you in a good mood . :D
[03:59] <epax> Greencookie: Do you get refresh rate problem?
[04:00] <Jimdb> greencookies: you should go to the ati website and download their drivers.  they are recently released and support aiglx natively.
[04:00] <Greencookie> How do I check my refresh rate epax. BTW I can't enable 3d acceleration as I'm using the Vesa driver.
[04:00] <mssever> Kalumba: Hmm....        I seem to remember a report that might be relevant. I'm looking for it now...
[04:00] <Greencookie> Jimdb: How do I install those?
[04:00] <genefitz> CubeXombi, thanks friend. that shortened my boot time massively.
[04:01] <Jimdb> greencookie:  you download them and double click on the file that you downloaded.
[04:01] <nalpha> there is someone who's have same problem with me? Failed to mount QNAP with SMB Script??
[04:01] <jonecamp> Sunbird does not load any more. It initially worked well, but then crashed and has been freezing when it loads ever since. This seemed like it may have been a profile thing, so I tried removing it, but it still froze. This issue still occurs after a complete removal, an installation of 0.7, using metacity or compiz, and using different video drivers. Here is the part that gets me; it works when I run it remotely with ssh and X. I
[04:01] <Greencookie> Jimdb: thanks. Any way to find out which ATI card I'm using? I tried 'lspci' it gives me unknown ATI card.
[04:01] <genefitz> I wonder why the Ubuntu developers put something in there that lags to badly, Usually they are really efficiency minded
[04:01] <snail> How do I burn a .zip file in command line?
[04:02] <Jimdb> greencookie:  a notebook?
[04:02] <kid> ko
[04:02] <Dr_willis> snail,  burn a zip? that makes no sence
[04:02] <Greencookie> Desktop.. dell dimension c521
[04:02] <snail> how do i put a .zip file onto a disc
[04:02] <Greencookie> Desktop.. dell dimension c521 Jimdb
[04:02] <snail> it's not an image or anything
[04:02] <Dr_willis> snail,  thers several tools that let you make data cd's
[04:02] <snail> i just want the .zip file on the disc ... via command line
[04:02] <Jimdb> greencookie open the case and pull the card out (after you turn the power off).
[04:02] <genefitz> Greencookie, have you already installed the restricted drivers?
[04:03] <Dr_willis> from the command line - you sould check out some of the cli based cdburnign front ends. Its been so long sinve ive done it.. i cant even rember the options
[04:03] <Greencookie> Jimdb: Ok I'll try that.
[04:03] <Dr_willis> !find cdrecord
[04:03] <ubotu> Found: cdrecord
[04:03] <threeseas> I've tried all the fixes for poor internet speed and I'm still being ripped
[04:03] <Jimdb> greencookie:  the card s hould say what the model number is
[04:03] <threeseas> what else
[04:03] <Greencookie> genefitz: I guess so, cuz when i open restricted drivers, then I get ATI drivers in that window.
[04:03] <kid> ls
[04:03] <Kalumba> mssever, that is odd. I can not find any process that is called network running
[04:04] <genefitz> Greencookie: is there a check mark next to the ATI driver?
[04:04] <Dr_willis> !info mybashburn
[04:04] <ubotu> mybashburn: Burn data and create songs with interactive dialog box. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.2-1 (gutsy), package size 82 kB, installed size 728 kB
[04:04] <mssever> Kalumba: NetworkManager is capitalized
[04:04] <kid> !info kid
[04:04] <ubotu> Package kid does not exist in gutsy
[04:04] <Dr_willis> snail,  may want to check out 'mybashburn
[04:04] <Greencookie> genefitz: No when I try to enable that and restart X it crashes, forcing me to reset x
[04:04] <nalpha> anyone knows, an error smb_add_request show in my console after i mount with script QNAP share?
[04:05] <MurielGodoi> I am back to let youu know that your hint about java swing windows under compiz solved my problem. So thanks all :)
[04:05] <Kalumba> mssever, capitalized or not there is no process with it in its name
[04:05] <qazwsx> given a ps file; how do I conver it to another ps file; 2 pages (of the old ps) per one page of the (new) ps
[04:05] <genefitz> Greencookie, what video card are you using?

[04:05] <Dr_willis> qazwsx,  you mean shrink/fit 2 pages onto one page of paper?
[04:05] <mssever> Kalumba: OK. I think that I might know the problem...Give me a minute to find the link I'm looking for
[04:05] <qazwsx> Dr_willis: yes
[04:05] <Greencookie> guys how do I know if i have linuxx86 or linuxx86_64?
[04:06] <qazwsx> Dr_willis: it's in ps format already; I wnat it to be 2 pages per one; like the format of a2ps when I feed it a text file
[04:06] <Dr_willis> qazwsx,  ive done that ages ago. :) when printing.. using.. Hmm.. xppp I think. but its been a long time since ive done it.
[04:06] <Kalumba> mssever, I really really hope that you do have the solution on this one as I feel my sanity slipping away
[04:06] <dasiala> has anyone tried getting world of warcraft working?  I've used cedega, wine, and crossover.  Crossover has been the best thus far, it lets me play for about a minute.  I have a dell inspiron 1420n with the intel gm965 integrated graphics.  I'm worried it won't work with my graphics card.
[04:06] <sauvin> Greencookie, do a uname -r
[04:06] <Dr_willis> qazwsx,  and that was to a printer - not a file. :()  wonder how it did that anyway

[04:09] <s0m1c> kid
[04:09] <icefyre> anyone know how I can get around this and upgrade?
[04:10] <Greencookie> How do I uninstall amarok?
[04:10] <Greencookie> Its too buggy in gutsy, keeps giving me problems.
[04:10] <s0m1c> heelo everybody here?
[04:10] <icefyre> Greencookie: add/remove from applications men
[04:10] <icefyre> Greencookie: add/remove from applications menu
[04:10] <Jimdb> greencookie:  i would recommend focusing on one problem.
[04:10] <eljimbo> Anyone use esata and ubuntu?
[04:11] <Greencookie> Jimdb: hehe, I give up too easily. OK now focusing solely on my ati card, then next on my other problems:)
[04:11] <gerro> anyone know of a replacement font for simsun.ttf? I need to view some chinese
[04:11] <Jimdb> greencookie:  http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/linux/linux-radeon.html
[04:11] <slackorama> does update-manager produce a log I could look at post update?
[04:11] <sjovan> what's the deal with joining #ubuntu-unregged
[04:11] <Dr_willis> Hmm. Ive had noissues with amarok that i am aware of.  - I tend to use that SongBird however mainly
[04:11] <Jimdb> greencookie:  that's the ati driver for your card
[04:11] <jonecamp> eljimbo: what makes esata different than sata other than the connection, i would think the os would see it the same way
[04:11] <sjovan> what do you ahve to do, to be regged?
[04:11] <icefyre> I don't know where to look for the log
[04:11] <s0m1c> hi
[04:11] <icefyre> where would it be stored under?
[04:11] <Greencookie> Jimdb: im getting this on http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/linux64/linux64-radeon.html.
[04:12] <Greencookie> Jimdb: is that wrong? i got amd 64 processor on my desktop.
[04:12] <eljimbo> well I have a storage array (4 hard drives), and I believe its only seeing one of the drives
[04:12] <hydrogen> yaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy sox
[04:12] <hydrogen> okay
[04:12] <Jimdb> greencookie:  do you have the 32bit or 64bit version of ubuntu installed?
[04:12] <Nuked> anyone know how I can get the updated theora for a faster thoggen?
[04:12] <shua> evening gents
[04:13] <Greencookie> Jimdb: can u tell me how to find out? sorry for being so new.
[04:13] <Evanlec> hey so um, this question is probly getting old, but is it at all safe to resize my ntfs Vista partition in ubuntu?
[04:13] <Nuked> !theora
[04:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about theora - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:13] <ToddEDM> what program is most like itunes
[04:13] <jonecamp> eljimbo: 4 drives separately connected or is there external hardware so there is only one cable to the computer?
[04:13] <ToddEDM> or BETTER than itunes
[04:13] <Greencookie> !amarok | ToddEDM
[04:13] <ubotu> ToddEDM: Amarok is an audio player for Linux with an intuitive interface. The latest version is 1.4.3 for Dapper and 1.4.5 for Edgy and packages are  available for Kubuntu at www.kubuntu.org See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Amarok
[04:13] <Dr_willis> Evanlec,  ive never had issues resizeing mine.
[04:13] <shua> does anyone know how to get to the controller card selection utility when installing server 7.10?
[04:13] <icefyre> anyone know how to get around update manager failing on:
[04:13] <icefyre> Failed to fetch http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2/./Packages.gz 404 Not Found
[04:13] <symlink> hydrogen, Im with ya.... ;)
[04:13] <gavintlgold> anyone know where canonical gets it's money from?
[04:13] <Greencookie> ToddEDM: amarok is what ure looking for.
[04:13] <Evanlec> Dr_willis, was it a vista partition tho?
[04:13] <Jimdb> greencookie:  from what you pasted earlier it looks like the 32bit.
[04:13] <icefyre> when upgrading to gusty?
[04:14] <eljimbo> jonecamp: they are enclosed in an external box
[04:14] <Dr_willis> Evanlec,  ive resized xp. and vista
[04:14] <gavintlgold> sorry, its*
[04:14] <gavintlgold> ;)
[04:14] <shua> Canonical get $$$ from supporting commercial use of ubuntu
[04:14] <eljimbo> so there is one cable to the computer
[04:14] <Greencookie> ok I'll get that thanks. Isnt there a way to find if my ubuntu is 64 or 32 bit?
[04:14] <Evanlec> Dr_willis, what method did u use?
[04:14] <gavintlgold> shua: what do you mean?
[04:14] <Jimdb> Canonical doesn't break even yet on what they put into it
[04:14] <shua> well... I had 2 36gb drives in my box
[04:14] <wolliw> Greencookie, I have 64bit and it says "x86_64" in the output of uname -a
[04:14] <shua> replaced them with 5 147gb drives
[04:14] <shua> set them up in Raid5
[04:15] <Greencookie> wolliw: here's mine Linux Cookie-Jar 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Sun Oct 14 23:05:12 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/
[04:15] <shua> and am getting an error - aacraid: Host adapter reset request
[04:15] <jonecamp> eljimbo: well then that means that there is some sort of raid hardware in that box, so it will only see the array, you don't have control over them individually i believe
[04:15] <wolliw> that's 32bit
[04:15] <wolliw> i believe
[04:15] <Greencookie> thenx
[04:15] <Jimdb> greencookie:  so does mine and my install is a 32bit version.
[04:15] <shua> I think it is because the wrong driver is being used.
[04:15] <shua> and I would like to select the correct one
[04:16] <hektik> BitchX-1.1-final+ by panasync - Linux 2.6.22-14-generic
[04:16] <Greencookie> ok thnx Jimdb. Do you think im missing out on my amd 64 processor by using the 32 bit?
[04:16] <Jimdb> greencookie:  the last I saw the 32bit and 64bit versions of the driver are in the same install.
[04:16] <shua> I have reinstalled, and re-partitioned, but do not see the selection util for drivers
[04:16] <eljimbo> jonecamp: i think it might be a hardware issue as the status light on the drive is only lit for 1 of them
[04:16] <eljimbo> thanks
[04:16] <eljimbo> /exit
[04:16] <Jimdb> greencookie:  hell no
[04:16] <Evanlec> Greencookie, yea a little bit, nothing major
[04:16] <Jimdb> !ohmy | jimdb
[04:16] <Greencookie> Jimdb: ok. I just felt like 64 would be two times faster than 32 hehe:)
[04:17] <icefyre> anyone know how to get around update manager failing on:
[04:17] <icefyre> when upgrading to gusty?
[04:17] <icefyre> Failed to fetch http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2/./Packages.gz 404 Not Found
[04:17] <Evanlec> Greencookie, no, not anywhere near 2x, but unless u have a specific reason, i'd say go for it and install 64bit
[04:17] <genefitz> Greencookie: I have used both 32 and 64 on my 64x2 machine, but I have seen very little difference. I stick with 32 because it doesn't give hell for plugins
[04:18] <Greencookie> Evanlec, genefitz : ok thanks guys. I think ill stick with the safer 32bit version.
[04:18] <Kalumba> mssever, so I just rename /etc/rc6.d/S31umountnfs to /etc/rc6.d/K31umountnfs & /etc/rc6.d/S40umountfs to /etc/rc6.d/K40umountfs  ?
[04:18] <Jimdb> greencookie:  32bit seems to not have the extra difficulties when dealing with finding programs that operate on it.
[04:18] <Jimdb> greencookie:  so the general rule is that if you don't need it don't install it.
[04:18] <torshido> could somebody please give me the list of dependant packages for installing sun-java5-jre on a *fresh* installed Fesity?
[04:18] <genefitz> Jimdb, indeed, it seems like a craps shoot sometimes in 64 bit, "Will it work or will it crash?"
[04:18] <Greencookie> Jimdb: while im downloading driver can u tell me how to remove amarok? Add/Remove doesnt seem to remove it as it suggest using synaptic package manager(whatever that is).
[04:18] <icefyre> do I need to change mirrors somehow or something?
[04:19] <Jimdb> greencookie:  the installer at the link I provided has both the 32bit and 64bit drivers
[04:19] <Greencookie> torshido: I think sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre should do it
[04:19] <Nuked> no dice then huh
[04:19] <genefitz> Sudo apt-get remove amorok, I think ins the command
[04:19] <Evanlec> Jimdb, i feel like its the other way around, if u dont need 32-bit don't install it
[04:19] <mssever> Kalumba: Try it and see. The Debian fix is much better, but it's more difficult to apply
[04:19] <Jimdb> greencookie:  why do you need to remove it?  is something wrong with it?  does it not work properly?  you don't like it?  you found better?  you don't understand it?
[04:19] <bardyr> hey
[04:19] <mssever> Kalumba: Ubuntu really needs to apply the Debian fix
[04:19] <scguy318> torshido: isn't it sun-java6-jre? or are you trying to go for an older version?
[04:20] <Kalumba> mssever, I agree
[04:20] <torshido> I need to manually download those packages from packages.ubuntu.com.... I dont have a Feisty at hand right now... I will install them on a classroom with no Internet access
[04:20] <scguy318> torshido: ah, ok, lemme look
[04:20] <genefitz> I love Amorok, It is probably one of my most frequently used programs
[04:20] <torshido> Greencookie: I need to download the debs
[04:20] <torshido> scguy318: thanks!
[04:20] <Greencookie> Jimdb: I guess something is wrong with it! cuz i always freezes up, i cant open it.
[04:20] <AlbertEin> hi guys!, this is weird, i cannot play any video on any player even when nautilus recognize de video and makes a thumbail of it. When i open any video on any player i got some crazy stuff instead of the video, like color lines on a bad reception tv
[04:20] <scguy318> torshido: Feisty, Dapper, Gutsy?
[04:20] <bardyr> i have a sis163u wifi usb card, use the winXP driver with ndiswrapper but i need to turn wifi off and on my laptop before it finds any networks
[04:20] <torshido> scguy318: Feisty
[04:20] <bardyr> any way to fix this?
[04:20] <AlbertEin> i have 7.10, everythiong worked fine on 7.6
[04:21] <Jimdb> greencookie:  you tried other audo programs and don't have lock ups?
[04:21] <genefitz> Greencookie, have you tried re-installing it?
[04:21] <Jeriath|sleep> is tehre a way to start the xserver in like safe mode from terminal?
[04:21] <Greencookie> Jimdb: I'm in love with Amarok I wanna re-install it. is there a command line version to do this?
[04:21] <SamFisher47> my emerald has crashed :(
[04:21] <torshido> Greencookie: sudo apt-get install amarok --reinstall
[04:21] <Jimdb> greencookie:  are other audio programs locking up?
[04:21] <scguy318> Greencookie: sudo apt-get install amarok
[04:21] <Greencookie> Jimdb: I downloaded the ATI drivers but when I double click on it GEdit opens up saying there's a error
[04:21] <scguy318> Greencookie: oh what torshido said
[04:22] <genefitz> Greencookie: sudo apt-get install amorok
[04:22] <scguy318> Greencookie: chmod +x it then run from terminal
[04:22] <SamFisher47> *amarok?
[04:22] <jayk-> how do you reconfigure x windows when you change video cards?
[04:22] <Jimdb> greencookie:  you have to make it an executable.  in windows programs with .exe are all executable.  in linux any file can be flagged as an executable.
[04:22] <jayk-> it no longer starts up
[04:22] <genefitz> sam, correction noted (sometimes fingers move faster than my brain)
[04:22] <genefitz> my bad
[04:22] <Greencookie> jayk-: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:23] <scguy318> torshido: it depends on debconf, java-common, locales, and sun-java5-bin
[04:23] <Greencookie> Jimdb: Can u help me make it executable?
[04:23] <scguy318> torshido: those packages have their own dependencies
[04:23] <scguy318> torshido: see http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/libs/sun-java5-jre
[04:23] <Greencookie> Jimdb: the file name is ati-driver-installer-8.42.3-x86.x86_64.run
[04:23] <DanaG> Hmm, my e1000 NIC crashes when under heavy load, such as bittorrent.
[04:23] <torshido> scguy318: did you run the apt-get install command? or just read the dependencies in packages.ubuntu.com ??
[04:23] <Jimdb> greencookie:  at a terminal prompt just type sudo sh ati*.run
[04:23] <scguy318> torshido: i read the page
[04:23] <Evanlec> can anyone suggest an application to use to resize my Vista NTFS partition?
[04:23] <DanaG> When that happens, the only way to get the interface back is to reboot.
[04:23] <Greencookie> Jimdb: thnx
[04:23] <scguy318> torshido: I'm not on Ubuntu right now unfortunately
[04:23] <DanaG> Evanlec: disk manager.
[04:24] <DanaG> Right-click "my computer" and select "manage"
[04:24] <Evanlec> DanaG, meaning gparted?
[04:24] <Evanlec> DanaG, no i meant from ubuntu
[04:24] <mssever> Evanlec: gparted live cd
[04:24] <DanaG> Vista has its own on-the-fly resizer.
[04:24] <t3ch13> Evanlec You should be able to resize vista partion in vista itslef
[04:24] <SamFisher47> Vista=of the gay
[04:24] <Evanlec> DanaG, yea and i used that, but it wouldnt let me reduce the partition size any lower than 130gb !
[04:24] <jmworx> 3 machines, 3 different cards (3 manufacturers), 3 attempts at desktop effects with Gusty, 3 failures out-of-the box (only one worked after fighting with it) :-(
[04:24] <Evanlec> SamFisher47, agreed, thats why i want to shrink it down
[04:24] <torshido> scguy318: I already did that, but sometimes you forget about a deb.... I need somebody to run the "apt-get install sun-java5-jre -s" command and tell me the exact packages, please
[04:25] <SamFisher47> haha
[04:25] <timewriter> hi
[04:25] <scguy318> torshido: lemme fire up my laptop then
[04:25] <torshido> scguy318: you are the greatest! thanks
[04:25] <timewriter> anyone knows how to install a tv card on feisty ?
[04:25] <Kalumba> mssever, This is it. I am going to shut it down. Wish me luck.
[04:25] <SamFisher47> see you all, i'll be back on later to help if you need it
[04:25] <omegaweopon> I made a 10 gig virtual machine using virtual box in fiesty, I upgraded to gutsy only to find out virtual box doesnt work on it.  How do I uninstall it and insure that I erase the program AND the virtual machine?
[04:25] <t3ch13> Evanlec I had the same thing with my 160 gig vista only let me reduce by 40 gig so I just used that for my linux
[04:25] <mssever> Kalumba: OK. Hope it works
[04:25] <Evanlec> omegaweopon, im using virtualbox right now gutsy so thats incorrent...
[04:26] <jcode> I got rid of Windows Vista...
[04:26] <Greencookie> Jimdb: I just installed. I'm gonnna restart x. Be back.
[04:26] <torshido> omegaweopon: sudo apt-get remove virtualbox ??
[04:26] <Evanlec> t3ch13, yea but that sucks!, i dont want vista eating up 80gb that it doesnt need
[04:26] <jcode> Gutsy runs amazingly well on my laptop.
[04:26] <t3ch13> Unfortuanately I have some stuff that requires windows and vista is better than XP
[04:26] <Evanlec> only reason i dont get rid of vista entirely is for games
[04:26] <Kalumba> mssever, it seems it did not work :(
[04:27] <mssever> Kalumba: Grr.
[04:27] <Kalumba> mssever, I am close to tears. This is driving me nuts!
[04:27] <torshido> t3ch13: vista is better than xp? please
[04:27] <Jimdb> torshido:  no
[04:27] <mssever> Kalumba: It IS annoying. Maybe it would be good to take a break and come back to it later
[04:27] <t3ch13> torshido I have not had any problems with Vista
[04:27] <jmworx> Anyone knows how to have desktop effects *and* window borders at the same time?
[04:28] <Kalumba> torshido, sure, in 10 years and after 4-5 service packs you'll be just 10% worse than XP
[04:28] <threeseas> how do I fix the slow internet speed? Gutsy and ipv6 has been shut off
[04:28] <omegaweopon> I did apt-get remove on virtualbox but I still have the 10 gtigs missing
[04:28] <pga> If i do this >> sudo apt-get remove --purge ProgramName << would this remove the program completely, along with it depencies?
[04:28] <timewriter> jmworx you have to load compiz and emerald at startup
[04:28] <mssever> Kalumba: I need to head to bed soon. Sorry I wasn't able to help you solve it.
[04:28] <Kalumba> mssever, I agree. *sigh* I feel like inviting someone to ssh into the sucker and take a look
[04:28] <Evanlec> omegaweopon, virtualbox does work on gutsy
[04:28] <torshido> omegaweopon: where did you create the image?
[04:28] <phill> Hi everyone. I need help with a CUPS printer problem.   I have a Kyocera laser printer connected via USB that has been working for a years.  Suddenly CUPS can't detect it as a local printer any more via usb or parallel.  Can anyone suggest why the local printer isn't be detected?  Ubuntu 7.10.
[04:28] <jmworx> timewriter: What do you mean by that exactly?
[04:29] <Evanlec> omegaweopon, but if u still want to delete it, the virtual disk image should be in ~/.VirtualBox (show hidden files in nautilus with ctrl+h)
[04:29] <DanaG> Gaack, how do I fix my e1000?
[04:29] <Jimdb> vista has wgn/wga and 47 other programs that monitor and collect data on you and return it to microsoft.  I sort of akin that to say having walmart come to your door every sunday to ask to go through your belongings to determine fi any of those are stolen.  because microsoft does it with a hidden camera I don't see how it would be different t han say allowing walmart to do the same thing.
[04:29] <timewriter> are you using emerald with compiz ?
[04:29] <jmworx> timewriter: Using whatever comes with gusty
[04:29] <holycow> okay the new add printer applet is interesting.  its not accepting my password when i change server settings ... anyone run into this?
[04:29] <mssever> Kalumba: Unfortunately, I doubt that that would work. I thing the needed information is only available after the network interface is torn down. But, maybe I'm wrong.
[04:29] <timewriter> sudo apt-get install emerald
[04:29] <omegaweopon> Evanlec: Sorry I mant to say "It doesnt work how I want it to work... hehehe.
[04:30] <Evanlec> omegaweopon, oh, ok, well then u have your answer
[04:30] <jmworx> timewriter: Why isn't gusty installing that by default? Don't most people want to have window borders?
[04:30] <Kalumba> mssever,  there is dmesg for starting a computer up. no such thing for shutdown?
[04:30] <timewriter> i have no idea jmworx , im just a simple user
[04:30] <mssever> Kalumba: Not that I'm aware of
[04:30] <timewriter> i didnt installed gutsy also
[04:31] <Billies> hi guys, ive got a bit of a problem enabling visual effects, when i check any of the options provided other than none, i get a message, it says composite extension is not avalable, what does that mean, and can it be fixed? this is after a semi fresh install
[04:31] <omegaweopon> Im sorry but I have no clue where ~/.virtualbox is
[04:31] <timewriter> Billies you have your graphic card drivers installed ?
[04:31] <mssever> Kalumba: Well, I need to go to bed. Hope you get this sorted eventually.
[04:31] <torshido> omegaweopon: I think VirtualBox images end in the extension .vdi
[04:31] <Billies> yea
[04:31] <Billies> the ATI ones
[04:31] <genefitz> Billies, what video card are you using, which driver?
[04:31] <timewriter> type fglrxinfo
[04:31] <Kalumba> mssever, thanks for all your assistance. I really appriciated it.
[04:31] <timewriter> whats the output ?
[04:31] <Kalumba> mssever, sleep well
[04:31] <pga> If i do this >> sudo apt-get remove --purge ProgramName << would this remove the program completely, along with it depencies?
[04:31] <jmworx> timewriter: doesn't work
[04:31] <mssever> Kalumba: np. Thanks
[04:31] <omegaweopon> Found em
[04:31] <timewriter> jmworx why
[04:32] <torshido> omegaweopon: you could search your entire disk for this files with: find / -name "*.vdi"
[04:32] <Billies> ive got the ATI restricted ones installed, latest ones
[04:32] <Evanlec> has anyone else succesfully resized a vista ntfs boot/system partition in ubuntu?
[04:32] <timewriter> Billies if the output is correct , then sudo apt-get install xserver-xgl
[04:32] <jmworx> timewriter: I still get no borders, though it takes a bit longer for things to happen when I try to enable effects
[04:32] <genefitz> Billies, what series card are you using?
[04:32] <omegaweopon> Thanks guys,  Now question number two.  everytime I backspace too far in anything it gives me the annoyingly loud beep noises.  How do I get rid of this?
[04:32] <Billies> ATI X1650 AGP, card itself is fine, runs all my games artifact free in windows
[04:32] <timewriter> jmworx  emerald --replace
[04:33] <timewriter> Billies install xgl
[04:33] <Billies> will do
[04:33] <timewriter> the xgl server
[04:33] <genefitz> Billies are you using the Ubuntu provided driver or the driver from ATI?
[04:33] <infinitycirucit> don't the newest ati drivers have aiglx support
[04:33] <Jimdb> yes, the newest ones are supposed to
[04:33] <torshido> omegaweopon: http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-turn-off-virtual-console-beep
[04:33] <genefitz> Hmm, yeah, I forgot about xgl. My bad
[04:33] <timewriter> :)
[04:33] <Billies> so happy i dont have to constantly restart the system every time i do something like this
[04:33] <Billies> Genefitx: yeah, the new and updated ones, the ones that were on my live disk were old
[04:34] <timewriter> Billies , works now ?
[04:34] <Billies> downloadin
[04:34] <timewriter> ok
[04:34] <AttractPay|Die> What would run PCI Express?
[04:34] <timewriter> graphic card AttractPay|Die
[04:34] <jmworx> timewriter: emerald --replace doesn't do anything
[04:34] <torshido> omegaweopon: this one is easier: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/disable-the-system-beep-on-ubuntu-edgy/
[04:34] <timewriter> jmworx you have the emerald theme manager installed ?
[04:35] <omegaweopon> thanks torshido
[04:35] <holycow> anyone running gutsy here and not able to add printer because pass is not accepted for localhost?
[04:35] <Samus_Aran> can someone tell me what Ubuntu Gutsy is ?
[04:35] <Billies> not my computer:( old barton should have died ages ago, thanks a lot guys, guess i gotta relogin for this to take effect
[04:35] <timewriter> ok
[04:35] <timewriter> :)
[04:35] <Samus_Aran> I assume it's the next version, but it isn't listed on the site
[04:35] <timewriter> Samus_Aran , Ubuntu Gutsy is the latest Ubuntu release
[04:35] <Jimdb> old bartons are good
[04:35] <jmworx> timewriter: It's installed
[04:35] <genefitz> Samus_Aran, Gutsy is the latest distro if the Ubuntu Linux Operating System.
[04:35] <torshido> Samus_Aran: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyGibbon
[04:36] <Samus_Aran> how do I figure out which version I am on ?  I've done a few distupgrades now and can't recall what I'm on
[04:36] <Billies> mine still plays Battlefield 2142 pretty nicley, but my friends almost identical system, cept he has a pent 4 with HT overpowers mine
[04:36] <torshido> Samus_Aran: is the codename for Ubuntu 7.10
[04:36] <Samus_Aran> I think I'm on Feisty Fawn, but I thought I updated to 7.10 ..
[04:36] <torshido> Samus_Aran: do a "cat /etc/issue"
[04:36] <Billies> ill be back in a bit if something goes wrong, helpful place
[04:36] <timewriter> jmworx you did something wrong
[04:36] <Samus_Aran> torshido: /etc/issue is a custom file on my system
[04:36] <timewriter> emerald + compiz fusion are working perfect for me
[04:37] <jmworx> timewriter: i typed "emerald --replace". There isn't much that can go wrong with that.
[04:37] <timewriter> im removed emerald tho , because its a bit too much
[04:37] <Samus_Aran> timewriter: I was surprised that Ubuntu stopped using /etc/debian_version, but did not add a /etc/ubuntu_version
[04:37] <torshido> Samus_Aran: hummmm, then I have no idea, anybody?
[04:37] <timewriter> jmworx type emerald --help
[04:37] <netdefilr> I have a windows vista fileshare that has random files like spreadsheets on it. And I'm trying to access this fileshare with gutsy gibbon. But for some odd reason, it affects ubuntu when saving files, or browsing directories. Does anyone know a workaround?
[04:37] <timewriter> whats the output ?
[04:37] <jmworx> timewriter: emerald [--replace] [--help] [--version]
[04:37] <timewriter> so its there
[04:38] <timewriter> you need libemeraldengine0 and emerald-themes too
[04:38] <timewriter> do you have them ?
[04:38] <Nozy> hi all
[04:38] <Jimdb> jmworx:  find and download this:  fusion-icon_1.0-1_i386.deb
[04:38] <jmworx> timewriter: Yes. The process is there. It just doesn't do anything. I've got libemeraldengine0 and emerald-themes as well
[04:38] <Billies> it works! thanks whoever provided the solution! its so jello like, haha
[04:38] <Samus_Aran> apt-get distupgrade only shows me the files that show up for apt-get upgrade
[04:39] <Jimdb> haha
[04:39] <timewriter> and are you using compiz ?
[04:39] <jmworx> Jimdb: what the hell is that?
[04:39] <genefitz> nerdefilr, the only issue I had in file share between Vista and Ubuntu was the workgroup names under samba. I had to install Samba config to change the workgroup name to "workgroup" vice "mshome"
[04:39] <jmworx> timewriter: I'm not using anything at the moment because nothing works
[04:39] <Billies> draging these windows has never been so much fun, they stretch and jiggle, haha, thanks a ton guys
[04:39] <genefitz> After that, I was able to share and share alike between the systems
[04:39] <Samus_Aran> I tried a GIMP 2.4.0 package from GetDeb for Gutsy (there was none for Feisty) and it didn't work, lots of dep issues.  can Feisty not be upgraded to Gutsy using apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[04:39] <Jimdb> jmworx:  it will provide a systray icon where you can more easily access the configuration for emerald, compiz, or the native metacity
[04:39] <Samus_Aran> Billies: heh
[04:40] <timewriter> well
[04:40] <Greencookie> Hey Jimdb
[04:40] <Jimdb> jmworx:  i start with that as a session.
[04:40] <timewriter> i guess emerald wont run without compiz
[04:40] <jmworx> Jimdb: no use since it doesn't actually start!
[04:40] <Greencookie> Jimdb: what was the command to run the ati driver package from the terminal? sudo sh ati?
[04:40] <Billies> haha, playin with those windows showed me a new way to move em around, im gonna go, windows need shakin, thanks
[04:40] <Jimdb> jmworx:  the decorations or compiz
[04:40] <Jimdb> greencookie:  sudo sh ati*.run
[04:40] <torshido> scguy318: any news?
[04:40] <genefitz> I don't use the visual effects. I guess I am old fahsnoned.
[04:40] <jmworx> timewriter: BTW, "compiz --replace" tells me that "Checking for Xgl: not present" even though I'm enabling it
[04:41] <timewriter> sudo bash ati-driver-whatever.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/yourversion
[04:41] <timewriter> jmworx told you
[04:41] <netdefilr> genefitz: before you did that, did you have access to the fileshare?
[04:41] <xoxo2723> Hi everybody! A newcomer here. Need some help.
[04:41] <timewriter> emerald wont run without compiz
[04:41] <bullgard4> What is the reason for the name 'dev' of the (pseudo) file /proc/net/dev? man netstat: "device information". I cannot detect any 'device information' in it.
[04:41] <jmworx> timewriter: you told me what?
[04:41] <netdefilr> genefitz: I have access to the fileshare after authenticating, but problems come up when saving, or browsing.
[04:41] <netdefilr> genefitz: sometimes loads files, other times dies.
[04:42] <genefitz> netdefilr, I installed samba config, then under settings, changed the workfroup name. Viola! everything picked everyting up
[04:42] <z0ltan> so im having some trouble getting ubuntu to recognize my other 2 hdds.  I got into the disk usage analyzer and it shows me having 70 or so gb but i have 3 80 gb hdds connected. they are all ata.  when i use the gnome partition editor it detects them, and they are formated as ext3. so my question is there a way to get the filesystem to recognize them? like all 3 at the same time?
[04:42] <genefitz> voila even.
[04:42] <genefitz> Please don't check my spelling.
[04:42] <timewriter> jmworx , in order to get your emerald working , you need to install compiz
[04:42] <jmworx> Seriously, how many cards are there that actually work with desktop effects? Can't be more than one or two...
[04:42] <timewriter> there are many cards
[04:42] <netdefilr> genefitz: is the package samba-config?
[04:42] <jmworx> timewriter: compiz *is* installed.  I installed ubuntu studio manager from synaptic package manager. It was 300mb+ when I innstalled it.. and now when I click on the uninstall its 32kb.. do I have to uninstall all the apps that was included one by one?
[04:43] <z0ltan> ya
[04:43] <timewriter> then why it says you have  no xgl present ?
[04:44] <Jimdb> zoltan you able to write down the device names of the 2 additional drives?
[04:44] <sjovan> loony: autoremove
[04:44] <qcode> CompUSA's got 500GB drives for $99.99... I'm gonna go get a couple
[04:44] <sjovan> remember --purge
[04:44] <Greencookie> Help!
[04:44] <sjovan> and in the end
[04:44] <jmworx> timewriter: Well you tell me.  Its killing my eyes:(
[04:45] <sjovan> when it's done
[04:45] <timewriter> if its not working on every machine you tried , maybe you are doing something wrong
[04:45] <sjovan> you do a apt-get autoclean
[04:45] <Jimdb> greencookie:  did those drivers install?
[04:45] <timewriter> it worked for me
[04:45] <Greencookie> Jimdb: I guess so, cuz when I do lspci i get the following
[04:45] <timewriter> and im using  radeon also
[04:45] <timewriter> X1950XT
[04:45] <timewriter> pretty dodgy
[04:45] <Greencookie> Jimdb:  ATI Technologies Inc RV516 [Radeon X1300/X155
[04:46] <netdefilr> Does anyone know how to get the trackpoint on a thinkpad working good? I have the app to configure it, but it doesn'
[04:46] <netdefilr> t automatically keep the settings after reboot
[04:46] <xoxo2723> Does anybody know why the run application dialog (ALT + F2) is so slow in gutsy?
[04:46] <loony> sjovan: hum.. thats abit over my head.. I installed ubuntu yeasterday.. havent used linux in 7 years..
[04:47] <jmworx> timewriter: Installed Gusty with fresh install. Machine hangs. Upgrade on another machine. No borders out of the box. Eventually got them to work but half the plugins don't work. Third machine is this one, nothing works. And it's not like it's the first distro I installed. This is just a POS
[04:47] <timewriter> :)
[04:47] <timewriter> i see ..
[04:47] <z0ltan> like what kind of devices they are? they are labeled like hdc and hdd
[04:47] <Jimdb> zoltan:  when you select each device in gparted on the right side of the screen it lists the device name, such as /dev/hdb or /dev/hdc, etc
[04:47] <z0ltan> i dunno what happened to hdb
[04:47] <joeb3_> xoxo2723, pops up right away for me.
[04:47] <timewriter> im using Feisty
[04:47] <sjovan> loony: is it a install trough apt-get?
[04:47] <timewriter> compiz + emerald working
[04:48] <timewriter> and it worked on Gutsy too
[04:48] <loony> sjovan: I used the thingy in xfce
[04:48] <holycow> anyone having problems with adding printers in gutsy? its not accepting my password?
[04:48] <timewriter> more simple in gutsy
[04:48] <loony> synaptick package manager
[04:48] <timewriter> just needed to install xserver-xgl
[04:48] <holycow> never mind even that, it shouldn't even ask for a password.   anyone know what the fix is for this?
[04:48] <jmworx> timewriter: Then you must have one of the... one card supported I guess
[04:48] <Jimdb> zoltan:  i'm asking you to write them down so you can refer to the device names later
[04:48] <z0ltan> ooo
[04:48] <z0ltan> ok, done
[04:48] <timewriter> jmworx x1950xt was not supported 1 month ago
[04:48] <sjovan> loony: that's the same as useing apt-get, but you do it the har GUI way :)
[04:48] <Jimdb> zoltan:  what are they?
[04:48] <timewriter> i didnt thought it will work
[04:48] <Greencookie> How do i reconfigure X to default settings?
[04:49] <sjovan> loony: go to the terminal and do it my way instead :)
[04:49] <z0ltan> hda (one that works) hdc and hdd
[04:49] <bhaskark> hi all, my friend forgot his user name and password, how to recover them?
[04:49] <loony> sjovan: hehe ok.. but what do I put in for name?

[04:49] <holycow> let me rephrase the question ... anyone here running gutsy?  does your require a pass to add a printer?
[04:49] <Greencookie> time. Yep.
[04:49] <sjovan> the name of the pacages you want to delete
[04:49] <timewriter> replace it
[04:49] <netdefilr> genefitz: system-config-samba?
[04:49] <Jimdb> greencookie:  the installer should have made a copy of the xorg.conf file.
[04:49] <Radio_man> Will comprize work with on board 2d/3d/ graphics?.
[04:49] <sjovan> and without the "<>"
[04:49] <tanath> my epiphany keeps crashing on startup when i recover the session and i don't want to give up the session. i think i know what window is causing it. is there a way i can fix it?

[04:52] <a[2121]e> hey.. where is open chat?
[04:52] <Jimdb> zoltan you should avoid being logged in as root...you can alter permissions on files in your home folder that you won't be able to edit later.

[04:59] <jimmy-nokernel> I wish to compile a kernel.  I have downloaded the kernel source, bunziped it.  I want to copy my current kernel configuration into the source tree.  Where can I find my currently running kernel configuration?  I have checked the /boot directory, it is empty.
[04:59] <Jimdb> put this at the end of the file
[04:59] <Jimdb> /dev/hdc1 /media/beta ext3 rw,user,noauto 0 0
[05:00] <sjovan> loony: is this your topic? ---> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=595643&highlight=pcmcia
[05:00] <Greencookie> Hey Jimdb I installed the driver, now I have a ATI Catalyst Control centre in my menu, but it doesnt work when I click it:)
[05:00] <z0ltan> k
[05:00] <z0ltan> done
[05:00] <Jimdb> zoltan:  that should be /dev/hdd1 instead of /dev/hdd1
[05:00] <sjovan> loony: anyways... put in your laptop specs there and maby some one will help you out :)
[05:00] <Jimdb> zoltan:  that should be /dev/hdd1 instead of /dev/hdc1
[05:00] <netdefilr> genefitz: once you change to the right workgroup it works fine then eh?
[05:00] <Jimdb> zoltan:  for the last entry, that is
[05:00] <z0ltan> rgr
[05:00] <Jimdb> zoltan:  save the file
[05:01] <genefitz> netdefilr, you are linking to a Vista computer right?
[05:01] <netdefilr> genefitz: yup
[05:01] <z0ltan> done
[05:01] <Jimdb> zoltan:  now if that works, when you restart you should have the drives on your desktop and have read-write capability
[05:01] <loony> sjovan: thats me :)
[05:01] <z0ltan> ok, i will be back soon
[05:01] <genefitz> netdefilr, two ways to do it, you can change your workgroup on your linux box to "workgroup" or change your vista workgroup to "mshome"
[05:02] <Jimdb> greencookie:  i can't say what is causing it.  if you issue the command at a terminal prompt does it give an error message?
[05:02] <sjovan> loony: k, then you need to put down the specs! computer name and specialy the name of the soundcard
[05:02] <riotkittie> do not leave a ms workgroup as mshome. ever.
[05:02] <genefitz> Past that, if you have filr sharing on in your windows box, and your firewall set to permit it, it will work
[05:02] <sjovan> how els could someone help you out?
[05:02] <netdefilr> genefitz: gotcha. I think vistas setup to workgroup, could be wrong.
[05:02] <loony> sjovan: true true
[05:02] <genefitz> netdefilr, vista auto defaults to "workgroup"
[05:03] <Greencookie> Jimdb: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42537/ is my lspci.
[05:03] <loony> sjovan: havent been a "nerd" in years :)
[05:03] <graviton_> hey
[05:03] <Greencookie> Jimdb: whats the command to give at the terminal? so I can configure my ati card. Is it aticonfig?
[05:03] <netdefilr> genefitz: awesome, fixes one of my last issues with ubuntu :)
[05:03] <Bonster> oh i had porn running
[05:03] <netdefilr> genefitz: thanks
[05:03] <genefitz> I have all my computers networked to "workgroup" But if you change Vista's workgroup to "Mshome" it will pick up and see all your computers
[05:03] <sjovan> loony: but any ways... can't help you out. don't even know what a pcmcia is :P
[05:03] <Jimdb> greencookie:  i don't know the name of the executable for the cat control center for ati, but if you execute that command at a terminal prompt it should tell youa message as to why it won't load the cat control center.
[05:03] <graviton_> later!
[05:04] <Greencookie> aticontrol
[05:04] <Greencookie> oops
[05:04] <genefitz> netdefilr, sorry I couldn't find that article for you..
[05:04] <niru> how does ubuntu create deb packages out of the gnome source
[05:04] <Greencookie> !ati
[05:04] <netdefilr> gen: thanks though, it should help.
[05:04] <loony> sjovan: the small cards you put in on the side of the computer..
[05:04] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:04] <etrask> could someone help me? I read somewhere on the "Ubuntu Features" page that there's an option to have the hard drive be encrypted in real time
[05:04] <vinny> I have installed xubuntu 7.10 and openoffice, but when i open openoffice writer its blank, i suspect its a java issue but i cant get it to work.
[05:04] <etrask> but I can't figure out how to do it (or now that I'm looking, where it says that)
[05:04] <sjovan> loony: aaaa. okay, now i'm with you. so what is the name of you card?
[05:05] <sjovan> and the name of your computer
[05:05] <loony> sjovan: echo indigo i/o
[05:05] <netdefilr> genefitz: it's actually a completely different workgroup name all together
[05:05] <loony> fujitsu siemens c1320D
[05:05] <Tiago> any one go dual head working with compiz-fusion on ati under gusty gibbon yet?
[05:05] <netdefilr> genefitz: but tomorrow i'll test this out. thanks again.
[05:05] <Greencookie> How do I remove amarok from synaptic manager?
[05:05] <Zippy2> this ext2 volume manager thing for vista is so useless
[05:06] <SamFisher47> why not just use add/remove?
[05:06] <sjovan> loony: what...? is the name of the sound-card echo indigo i/o?
[05:06] <genefitz> netfefilr, here it is, http://www.ubuntutux.org/change-workgroup-in-ubuntu-7-04
[05:06] <Zippy2> Greencookie: apt-get remove --purge amarok
[05:06] <Greencookie> SamFisher47: cuz It doesnt allow me to, it says one or more things are dependant on amarok
[05:07] <SamFisher47> oh right
[05:07] <sjovan> greencookie: then you force...
[05:07] <sjovan> apt-get remove -f
[05:07] <SamFisher47> Greencookie: in that case use --purge from apt-get
[05:07] <loony> sjovan: yepp.. :) added it with url on the forum now
[05:07] <DanaG> Oh hey, what are the default permissions on /tmp?
[05:07] <Tiago> dual head? ati? gusty gibbon? please?
[05:07] <DanaG> I accidentally rm'd it.
[05:07] <SamFisher47> or as sjovan said
[05:07] <sjovan> kk
[05:07] <Greencookie> Zippy2: thanks a lot. I'm purging:)

[05:08] <michael_> sure
[05:08] <Tiago> im pleeding with the ubuntu community! with out dual monitors there is no linux! Q_Q
[05:08] <z0ltan> <3 ty very much

[05:08] <Jimdb> zoltan:  you see icons on your desktop?
[05:08] <godbless> how do i install "django" on an ubuntu linux server?
[05:08] <z0ltan> yup
[05:08] <Ltar> I'm running a LiveCD, trying to get access to some files with  sudo chown -R default:default /path/to/directory, which I do not have read permissions for
[05:09] <z0ltan> and they are recognized by the disk usage utility
[05:09] <Jimdb> zoltan:  great,  did you learn something?
[05:09] <z0ltan> ya
[05:09] <Jimdb> zoltan:  good...night...have fun
[05:09] <z0ltan> so the media folder is used to manage the different partitions
[05:09] <Tiago> please help! there must be dual head ati for ubuntu or i shall surely die or turn emo!
[05:09] <z0ltan> which each need a directory right?
[05:09] <Ltar> It thorws "invalid user" at me... what's the default user value, or how can I assign the folder to global read/write?
[05:09] <z0ltan> what did the chmod 777 do?
[05:09] <Jimdb> zoltan:  the /media folder simply is where you mount stuff that you want on your dsktop as an icon
[05:09] <z0ltan> oh
[05:10] <michael_> simple question - how to change brightness on crt monitor with nvidia card?
[05:10] <Jimdb> zoltan:  chmod 777 gave everyone permissions to write to those folders
[05:10] <hari> hi
[05:10] <z0ltan> ahh so all the users could use them
[05:10] <tonyyarusso> michael_: CRT monitors usually have some menu bottons on the front of them to control such things.
[05:10] <Jimdb> zoltan:  so, yes a regular user can read/write to the partition
[05:10] <DanaG> Oh hey, what are the default permissions on /tmp?
[05:11] <z0ltan> how would i go about limiting who can write to where?
[05:11] <Jimdb> zoltan:  technically read/write to the file system on teh partition.
[05:11] <jimmy-nokernel> DanaG: drwxrwxrwt for /tmp
[05:11] <Tiago> i am roooooooooooooooooot
[05:11] <gerro> what is the difference between .ttc and .ttf fonts?
[05:11] <timewriter> :)

[05:11] <Tiago> i must have dual head in gusty
[05:12] <Ltar> I'm running a LiveCD, trying to get access to some files with  sudo chown -R default:default /path/to/directory, which I do not have read permissions for / ownership.
[05:12] <Ltar> It throws "invalid user" at me... what's the default user value, or how can I assign the folder to global read/write/ownership?
[05:12] <BLLZ> does anybody know how to import music from an ipod with rhythmbox?
[05:12] <sjovan> loony: have you activated pm?

[05:12] <DanaG> aah, 1777
[05:12] <BLLZ> Bonster, is it a music manager too?
[05:12] <Jimdb> zoltan;  that's much more involved.  you may want to spend some time learning about linux permissions and security.
[05:12] <Bonster> yep
[05:12] <z0ltan> but i realize i have a lot to learn before i can do that on my own
[05:13] <z0ltan> ya

[05:14] <tonyyarusso> elninja_: gparted
