[05:37] <Warbo> Cedega CVS is free, but doesn't have copy-protection-breakingness (for legal reasons)
[05:37] <sain> is wine as good as cedega though?
[05:37] <G3N3SIS> I want to emulate PS.
[05:37] <eneried> Fortis, you must pay to for Call of Duty
[05:37] <G3N3SIS> Sain: You can use the CVS
[05:37] <Zac1> strabes: what, ok
[05:37] <Dheeraj_k> i am looking for technical detail about apt.
[05:37] <frying_fish> spx2: edit your xorg.conf for the mouse to say /dev/input/event1 for now
[05:37] <sain> i might just boot up windows to play it
[05:37] <Stormx2> G3N3SIS: Try GIMP-Shop. its not as good but meh. You get used to it. Personally I emulate Paint Shop Pro 7
[05:37] <sain> too much hassles
[05:37] <frying_fish> instead of mouse1
[05:37] <Dheeraj_k> any site?
[05:38] <Warbo> G3N3SIS: Take a look through the repositories, I think there are playstation emulators in there
[05:38] <eneried> sain, wine is as good if you take your time tunning it
[05:38] <Warbo> oops
[05:38] <J4kch> sain: Good thinking
[05:38] <Warbo> photoshop?
[05:38] <Warbo> sorry
[05:38] <Stormx2> Dheeraj_k: Google is your friend.
[05:38] <DralaFi> Dheeraj_k, google might know. You could also read the source.
[05:38] <G3N3SIS> Well, I am fine with making the image, just I need to slice my layouts.
[05:38] <Fortis> !apt
[05:38] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[05:38] <Dheeraj_k> i want to integrate it with mysql
[05:38] <Stormx2> Dheeraj_k: In what way?
[05:38] <strabes> Zac1: make sure "Mount Remavable drives when hot-plugged" and "Mount removable media when inserted" are checked
[05:38] <frying_fish> and spx2 it shoudl be mouse0 currently not mouse1 as thats your touchpad.  I would also suggest learning how to write a udev rule for it and make it appear somewhere different and use that other place.
[05:38] <eneried> Stormx", G3N3SIS, there's a problem in gimp, it cannot work with ymck, and it is essential to designers, if you only need web design GIMP is the best option you could make
[05:38] <RichiH> Stormx2: more work than privilege ;)

[05:39] <Dybber> How do I get Java running in Firefox? I can run java applications just fine, but applets doesnt work. (Im using edgy)
[05:39] <Warbo> I hear Krita does CYMK, but I have not used it yet
[05:39] <Dheeraj_k> to keep the package detail in database
[05:39] <sain> Unimatrix9, castle wolfenstein
[05:39] <mama> hey i have a question every time i go to a website like youtube the page crashes....HELP :)
[05:39] <Unimatrix9> yeah
[05:39] <Stormx2> eneried: It cannot work with YMCK? YMCK is a japanese 8-bit band I quite like...
[05:39] <Unimatrix9> thats the one
[05:39] <J4kch> mama: What browser you using?
[05:39] <Zac1> Strabes: It is checked? What next
[05:39] <strabes> Zac1: you need to figure out where your device is located in /dev, so then you can manually mount it.
[05:39] <mama> firefox
[05:39] <sain> Dheeraj_k, so pull down the package details into a table
[05:40] <J4kch> mama: Weird, firefox never gave me no trouble
[05:40] <G3N3SIS> Wait, what's YCMK or whatever?
[05:40] <eneried> G3N3SIS a color space based on substraction, opossed to RGB bassded on addition, CMYK fits with printer machines RGB fits with screens
[05:40] <G3N3SIS> oh.
[05:40] <Warbo> G3N3SIS: A way of defining colour, useful for printing
[05:40] <Stormx2> YMCK is a good band tho xD
[05:40] <G3N3SIS> Well still, isn't that different from what I need?  I just need to slice layouts.
[05:40] <DralaFi> Yellow Cyan Magenta blacK
[05:40] <mama> any suggestions?
[05:40] <morphir> Dybber, get automatix2
[05:40] <jesse__> i'm back again
[05:40] <J4kch> mama: You have the latest version right?
[05:40] <Stormx2> Dybber: Ignore that advice given by morphir
[05:40] <Dheeraj_k> so that when i'll fireup apt-get install package it should check database and fetch package from repo
[05:41] <mama> i think so?
[05:41] <Zac1> Strabes: What is a possible device name for an mp3 player
[05:41] <Dybber> Stormx2, whats your advice then?
[05:41] <jesse__> any question?
[05:41] <Stormx2> Dybber: easyubuntu
[05:41] <sain> Dheeraj_k, yeah, you'll have to put the records into the database yourself though
[05:41] <morphir> Stormx2, why is that?
[05:41] <eneried> Stormx2, G3N3SIS, CMYK is needed to make colors on printed works match the colors you selected
[05:41] <J4kch> mama: sorry, can't help ya =/
[05:41] <Stormx2> Dybber: or just reading the pages. Automatrix breaks stuff
[05:41] <strabes> Zac1: it's going to be like /dev/sda1 or something but you're going to have to dmesg it
[05:41] <Warbo> no Broadcom networking help then?
[05:41] <Stormx2> !automatrix
[05:41] <mama> i tired to instill flash player again
[05:41] <Dheeraj_k> as a part of my college project
[05:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about automatrix - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:41] <sain> Dheeraj_k, should be easy enough to script with php/perl etc
[05:41] <strabes> Zac1: just search ubuntuforums.org
[05:41] <Stormx2> !automatix
[05:41] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe

[05:42] <Dheeraj_k> dms == desktop management system
[05:42] <G3N3SIS> I just need to be able to slice the layout's into tables and then code it and use it on the internet.
[05:42] <eneried> G3N3SIS,  then use gimp instead
[05:42] <prudhvi_> Hi, is it possible to install Ubuntu as guest Operating system under RH based systems?
[05:42] <morphir> Stormx2, works for me :)
[05:42] <Zac1> Strabes: there is sda and sda1
[05:42] <Stormx2> G3N3SIS: The GIMP caaan do that.
[05:42] <Dheeraj_k> sain: i am not a fan of php i may code it in java >>ejb
[05:42] <eneried> G3N3SIS, Gimp works on linux and windows so you can work on onw system, change an contuiinue in the other
[05:42] <sain> Dheeraj_k, the overhead of java would be overkill on such a project
[05:43] <sain> Dheeraj_k, but yeah, whatever
[05:43] <J4kch> I'm having problems downloading stuff with Synaptic and Aptitude, anyone care to help?
[05:43] <eneried> G3N3SIS, ok, then look for a dreamweaver alternative, right?

[05:43] <G3N3SIS> Guys, look I already know that.  I have most of the opensource software on Windows.  I want to know if I can slice with Gimp.  If so, where is the feature.
[05:43] <sain> the way Dreamweaver writes broken code is so cool
[05:43] <Dheeraj_k> http://www.apt-get.org/ where is the documentation? and source code?
[05:43] <sain> i wish every developer used it

[05:44] <eyalw> jrib: hi again. I have an idea to my sound problem, tell me what u think, I read some pages, and they suggested installing the windows codecs and then the gstreamer-totem-firefox-plugin packege, u think this will help?
[05:44] <Zac1> how do you mount an mp3 player?
[05:44] <Fortis> Genesis: Try google
[05:44] <Afief> Has a solution been found for the IPW2200 frimware problem in edgy?
[05:44] <G3N3SIS> No no, I want to SLICE.  I have googled it before Fortis.
[05:44] <Fortis> Genesis: OK
[05:44] <strabes> Zac1: I told you: yours is not automounting so just search ubuntuforums for that question - it's a common one
[05:44] <G3N3SIS> Slice to cut the layout into pieces.  It then turns it into tables using the images.
[05:45] <sain> G3N3SIS, but the simple answer is; you won't find that functionality easily from GIMP like with photoshop
[05:45] <eneried> G3N3SIS, tell me what slice does and i can help you
[05:45] <spx2> unimatrix9 , jesse__ ?
[05:45] <vinicri>  i'm using kubuntu, early i was with ubuntu and its gnome interface, either with one or another, it seems a little bit to me that the visual plataform work with lag. I dont know if its memory, that i have only 256MB. is it the problem?
[05:45] <G3N3SIS> I just did Eneried.
[05:45] <J4kch> vinicri: That's most likely the problem
[05:45] <eneried> hehe, yes
[05:45] <sain> G3N3SIS, our designer went down the same path and ended up back at photoshop
[05:45] <Fortis> Genesis: offtopic: Why you use tables? Use CSS :)
[05:45] <eneried> vinicri, maybe
[05:45] <jrib> eyalw: does this work: '
[05:45] <jesse__> spx2:> i here
[05:45] <G3N3SIS> haha ok sain.
[05:46] <jrib> eyalw: does this work: 'aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav' ?
[05:46] <G3N3SIS> I'll just have to go back to Windows for this stuff then.
[05:46] <vinicri> can i do something to solve this before buy more memory
[05:46] <eneried> Fortis, tables are a really good alternative, i'm with G3N3SIS, in that thing
[05:46] <J4kch> g3n3sis: Dual bootage
[05:46] <jesse__> spx2:> i'm here
[05:46] <G3N3SIS> That leads me to my second question.  If i'm ultimately going to use this for a while, then I need Ventrilo, as well as Mplayer I believe it is to support my codecs for anime.
[05:46] <Tominator> hi @ll
[05:46] <bonggnu> hi, my apache2 seems does not support mysql database, but i have installed the mods, how can i fix it ?
[05:46] <eneried> G3N3SIS a virtual machine
[05:46] <G3N3SIS> Yeah, I'll jsut boot back to Windows for my web-dev stuff.
[05:46] <Fortis> Are there really no tools for slicing?
[05:47] <sain> tables are used for tabled data ... lol, i love when i see someone trying to do tabled data purely in CSS
[05:47] <J4kch> vinicri: is switching back to Gnome an option?
[05:47] <Tominator> I've got a problem using the nvidia1.0-9629 running ubuntu egdy eft...
[05:47] <Tominator> When I start something in fullscreenmode, my Xserver collapses, and wine won't run! is there a bug fix in the newer driver-versions? or is there another problem?
[05:47] <eneried> G3N3SIS, instaling a vitual machine let you run windows inside linux,
[05:47] <spx2> jesse__ it seems all have let me down
[05:47] <sain> it's like "i'll never use tables again! No matter what!"
[05:47] <G3N3SIS>  Mplayer, is that a good player for video as well as music?  I know VLC didn't have an official release for *nix
[05:47] <spx2> jesse__ i don't have any support any more
[05:47] <Fortis> sain: When you use slice, I think you don't want to table data
[05:47] <spx2> :(
[05:47] <G3N3SIS> brb
[05:47] <sain> Fortis, you don't know the procedure he is trying to do
[05:48] <sain> it involved tables, unfortunately
[05:48] <jesse__> spx2:> last resort is to go and buy a dell usb optical wheel  mouse
[05:48] <Fortis> What is he trying then? :)
[05:48] <sain> he is trying to replicate what Dreamweaver does with slices
[05:48] <nothlit> G3N3SIS, yes it does video just as well as music, but you might have to choose a -vo
[05:48] <jesse__> :(
[05:48] <sain> where you can slice up the image and put it into tables for display
[05:49] <Fortis> Oh well, it's fine
[05:49] <nothlit> G3N3SIS, you should use gmplayer, also mencoder transcodes videos great as well but vlc has the most built in codecs
[05:49] <jesse__> spx2:> still there?
[05:49] <J4kch> So uh, anyone feel like helping me out? =P

[05:51] <sain> J4kch, well you must be, because it's trying to retrieve from localhost :)
[05:51] <jrib> eyalw: hmm that's really strange.  I think your best option is to try the flash9 beta as it uses alsa by default
[05:51] <wy> Hi, I have a problem with /dev/dsp. It changes its mode to crw-rw----  every time I restart. But I want it to be globally readable and writable
[05:51] <J4kch> sain: foxy proxy is off (and that's firefox stuff)

[06:05] <G3N3SIS> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[06:05] <G3N3SIS> Trying to install codecs
[06:05] <jrib> sain: yes
[06:06] <TGPO> sain, yes
[06:06] <jrib> G3N3SIS: do you have synaptic open?
[06:06] <sain> then pkill that baby
[06:06] <G3N3SIS> Tryed opening it.
[06:06] <TGPO> G3N3SIS, bad idea interupting dpkg
[06:06] <G3N3SIS> Said that another process was using Sudo
[06:06] <G3N3SIS> Yeah, I had to, it was stuck.
[06:06] <wasabi> You're trying to kill sudo?
[06:06] <jrib> G3N3SIS: no, another process is using the apt database, not sudo
[06:06] <eneried> QUESTION: how to change the default media player?
[06:06] <graham_100> i have problems witgh that stupid programme Wine how do i get rid of it??
[06:06] <G3N3SIS> Should I relog?
[06:06] <wasabi> You should close the other process.
[06:06] <G3N3SIS> What process is it?
[06:06] <jesse__> be care ful with dpkg without it you can't install anything
[06:07] <wasabi> Probably synaptic or update-manager.
[06:07] <sain> graham_100, let's not get rid of it ... we'll look at the sources together and fix your problem
[06:07] <G3N3SIS> Nice, I got synaptic to open.
[06:07] <sain> graham_100, you get cracking on learning how to code
[06:07] <J4kch> g3n3sis: WOW! You're such a pro
[06:07] <jrib> graham_100: sudo aptitude purge wine
[06:07] <jesse__> got to go
[06:07] <wasabi> killing processes that are in /var/lib/dpkg is generally not safe.
[06:07] <wasabi> They locked it for a reason.
[06:07] <A[D] minS> i used bittorando client to download file.iso and the total size for file is 2.6Gb , but i rebooted my computer after 1.7Gb .. now i can't resume file to be 2.6G its says file already exist do u want to replace !!!
[06:07] <A[D] minS> any idea how to resume ?
[06:07] <G3N3SIS> No, I didn't kill anything.
[06:08] <graham_100> only reason i want rid is because itkeeps saying something about 3d driver not working after it already worked fine once
[06:08] <G3N3SIS> I attempted to, but it said the command didn't exist.
[06:08] <wceoscar> is xchat the best irc client for ubuntu?
[06:08] <jrib> !defaultapp | eneried
[06:08] <ubotu> eneried: To change the default application for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties -> Open With, and then change the setting. In Kubuntu, Konqueror -> Settings -> Configure and then hit "File Associations"
[06:08] <jrib> !best | wceoscar
[06:08] <ubotu> wceoscar: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[06:08] <spx2> wceoscar irssi would be pretty good
[06:08] <eneried> A[D] minS: tell bittornado to recheck integrity on downloaded file
[06:08] <TGPO> wceoscar, is anchovies the best pizza topping?
[06:08] <spx2> jrib can you help me dude ?
[06:08] <sain> wceoscar, in other words, yes
[06:08] <G3N3SIS> It just wouldn't open because I ctrl+Z'd a sudo aptitude install
[06:08] <TGPO> wceoscar, no
[06:08] <sain> wceoscar, if you want a graphical IRC client
[06:08] <Hexidigital> i prefer IRSSI
[06:08] <eneried> A[D] minS: it works on azureus and utorrent, then i believe bittornado have an option for suh thing
[06:08] <sain> wceoscar, don't listen to them!
[06:09] <TGPO> bitchx
[06:09] <spx2> IRSSI !
[06:09] <sain> TGPO, gui
[06:09] <TGPO> sain your preaching opinion
[06:09] <jrib> spx2: what is wrong?
[06:09] <wceoscar> what other irc  client?
[06:09] <Fortis> XChat
[06:09] <sain> TGPO, he wants a graphical client
[06:09] <ks3> G3N3SIS, ctrl+z puts it in the background... could you have used fg to get it back?
[06:09] <eneried> QUESTION: nobody is reading me? how can i change the default media player?
[06:09] <jrib> eneried: scroll up, ubotu answered :)
[06:09] <spx2> jrib http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=311462
[06:09] <sain> and no-one would choose bitchx over irssi
[06:10] <jesse__> system, preferences, mutilmudia system selecotr
[06:10] <TGPO> sain I do
[06:10] <spx2> wceoscar use IRSSI it is exactly what you need
[06:10] <J4kch> sain: Is there a fast way to download the all the updates rather than manually?
[06:10] <spx2> j4kch yes use apt-get
[06:10] <mwalling> !samba
[06:10] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[06:10] <Fortis> How can I run scripts by startup of my system?
[06:10] <J4kch> spx2: the problem is that apt-get won't connect =)
[06:10] <graham_100> sain what does this mean ??    libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4a
[06:10] <eneried> thanks jrib ;)
[06:11] <jesse__> thats bs
[06:11] <sain> someone tell J4kch where to set apts proxy
[06:11] <J4kch> someone tell me
[06:11] <jesse__> it should connect still bs
[06:11] <sain> graham_100, wel, what it says ... ditch the wine
[06:11] <wceoscar> ok.. i just installed amsn 0.95... and noticed that they realeased 0.96.... i downloaded the package now how can i install it with the synaptic?????
[06:11] <graham_100> sain it wont let me ditch wine! lol
[06:11] <graham_100> says it can't
[06:11] <sain> J4kch, i would help but i don't run ubuntu
[06:11] <jrib> J4kch: I think it uses $http_proxy but synaptic may have its own settins.  General proxy is in system > preferences
[06:11] <eneried> QUESTION: what is the best place to find a binary mplayer for edgy?
[06:12] <jesse__> go on synaptic, and click reload to refresh the rep.
[06:12] <jrib> eneried: in edgy multiverse
[06:12] <jrib> !multiverse | eneried
[06:12] <ubotu> eneried: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[06:12] <graham_100> sain so i guess because i don't know nuclear physics i can't get rid of it lol
[06:12] <livingdaylight> i want to open an application with wine but i don't see it in my list of 'open with application'
[06:12] <sain> J4kch, try that system>preferences for the proxy as jrib said
[06:12] <eneried> thanks jrib
[06:12] <J4kch> I'm there
[06:12] <sain> graham_100, you could slap it repeatedly
[06:13] <graham_100> sain that may work lol
[06:13] <sain> graham_100, worked with my gf
[06:13] <graham_100> lol
[06:13] <salkot> Is there any way to automatically give nm-applet access to my keyring?
[06:13] <jrib> J4kch: settings > preferences > network  is in synaptic as well
[06:14] <sain> keyring
[06:14] <sain> ok then
[06:14] <J4kch> jrib: It is in direct connection to the internet
[06:14] <wceoscar> ok.. i just installed amsn 0.95... and noticed that they realeased 0.96.... i downloaded the package now how can i install it with the synaptic?????
[06:14] <livingdaylight> Hallo Jungs!? i want to open something with wine, but i don't see it in my list
[06:14] <graham_100> sain when sudo tells you it does not have super cow powers what is that?
[06:14] <ac7ss> Any one know how to change the default keyboard layout in XFCE?
[06:14] <livingdaylight> yes, i have installed it
[06:14] <sain> graham_100, what about sudo -i
[06:15] <sain> graham_100, i mean su -i
[06:15] <Yggdrasil> hey can somone help me out, i have a situation where sometimes on boot,, my hald fails, eventualy it times out and i cant run gnome, kde and flux seem to start fine.
[06:15] <mydy>
[06:15] <Z3dzDead> Does anyone know how i can test the browsing speed- want to know if its any better on linux (or is that just a myth?)
[06:15] <jrib> graham_100: don't you mean aptitude tells you that?
[06:15] <wceoscar> ok.. i just installed amsn 0.95... and noticed that they realeased 0.96.... i downloaded the package now how can i install it with the synaptic?????
[06:15] <juliux> hi all i have a problem with cups if i try to install cups i get this error http://www.ubuntuusers.de/paste/5668/
[06:15] <graham_100> sain i think ui will format and start again
[06:16] <wceoscar> ok.. i just installed amsn 0.95... and noticed that they realeased 0.96.... i downloaded the package now how can i install it with the synaptic?????
[06:16] <graham_100> then i have to do that stupid  wireless card setup
[06:16] <klm-> is there a 'setting wizard' for ubuntu with which I could save my contemporary settings (programs installed, bookmarks, stuff like that) and then install a new clean version from scratch and make the wizard install all my previous settings?
[06:16] <eneried> Yggdrasil boot gnome with a different user, if gnome works bad the problem is in gnome if not the problem is in your gnome config,m then go to your home dir and fix gnome config files and folders..
[06:16] <J4kch> jrib: I'm on the network preferences, everything looks normal
[06:16] <graham_100> oh well
[06:16] <sain> graham_100, haha you gotta enjoy doing it or there's no point :)
[06:17] <jrib> J4kch: echo $http_proxy
[06:17] <lumpki> wceoscar, is it a deb file?
[06:17] <ac7ss> anyone use XFCE?
[06:17] <sain> J4kch, have you set up iptables with some frontend?
[06:17] <Yggdrasil> eneried, really ? it seems as if the hald layer .. whatever that is eeds to be fixed, something with hardware abstraction.
[06:17] <|ID|Tigerman[X64> probably a stupid question, but is there a way to write a new superblock when fsck dont feel like fixing anything?
[06:17] <sain> J4kch, i'm thinking maybe you set up a transparent proxy in iptables
[06:17] <J4kch> jrib: http://localhost:4001
[06:18] <jrib> J4kch: well there you go
[06:18] <eneried> but if another user could start the gnome the hald setting is only to your user
[06:18] <eneried> Yggdrasil:
[06:18] <J4kch> sain: not to my knowledge but I do a lot of stuff without my knowledge =P
[06:18] <ks3> Tigerman, there are alternate superblocks throughout the partition
[06:18] <Yggdrasil> ill try it eneried
[06:19] <Tigerman> ks3 and using them to run fsck, I still get the message that the superblock is fubar..
[06:19] <sain> J4kch, heh theres' your problem, it is connecting to your machine port 4001
[06:19] <J4kch> jrib: So now how do I fix it?
[06:19] <eneried> ;)
[06:19] <eneried> i have to go now
[06:19] <eneried> thanks for the help
[06:19] <J4kch> sain: so now what?
[06:19] <eneried> ;)
[06:20] <jrib> J4kch: do you need to use a proxy?  Try    export http_proxy=""     and then run aptitude again
[06:20] <woro2006> how can I export my evolution calendar for viewing on the web?
[06:20] <ks3> Tigerman, you can do mke2fs -n /dev/xxxx to get a list of all alternate superblocks, and try each one.... hopefully one is good
[06:20] <sain> J4kch, yeah, do that (assuming you are running bash, which you probably are)
[06:20] <sain> J4kch, what jrib said
[06:21] <sain> J4kch, and all your problems should dissappear :)
[06:21] <Tigerman> ks3: but when i fix problems on the hdd (actually its hdc :p) using a different superblock, it wont cause new problems, or?
[06:21] <jrib> well J4kch should find out how that got set since it will probably get reset when you reboot
[06:21] <wceoscar> its a DBL file
[06:21] <ks3> Tigerman, shouldn't... i've used it successfully once or twice
[06:21] <wceoscar> DB!!!!!!!!!!
[06:22] <mwalling> is there a known problem with us.archive.ubuntu.com right now?
[06:22] <sain> jrib, yeah, or just set in in his .profile
[06:22] <ompaul> mwalling, put it in your web browser
[06:22] <Tigerman> ks3: /dev/hdc is apparently un use by the the system; will not make a filesystem here!
[06:22] <J4kch> sain, jrib: Problem remains
[06:23] <mwalling> ompaul: its been loading for ~1 minute now
[06:23] <ks3> Tigerman, so, it's already mounted?
[06:23] <ompaul> mwalling, and from in excess of 4k miles I can say no there ain't
[06:23] <jrib> J4kch: what is the error
[06:23] <Tigerman> ks3 nop
[06:23] <sain> J4kch, what is the $http_proxy now?
[06:23] <ompaul> mumbles-off, why do nick spam?
[06:23] <J4kch> sain: still localhost
[06:23] <lumpki> wceoscar, you need to get the .deb file for ubuntu
[06:23] <ks3> Tigerman, hmmmm, for some reason fsck thinks so... does it show up in /proc/mounts?
[06:23] <mwalling> ompaul: 100% packetloss
[06:23] <Tigerman> just rebooted and didnt mount anything afterwards..
[06:24] <ompaul> mwalling, well not from this side of the atlantic - check your upstream
[06:24] <mwalling> ubuntu.com/wiki is fine
[06:24] <ks3> Tigerman, or perhaps another fsck / mkfs process has it opened?
[06:24] <ompaul> mwalling, different machines
[06:24] <ompaul> mwalling, in different locations
[06:24] <stoorty> what repositry do i need to get ntfs-3g ?
[06:24] <Tigerman> ks3: nope
[06:25] <stoorty> !ntfs-3g
[06:25] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but is still BETA software, so use it with caution. Dapper installation instructions http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710
[06:25] <sain> J4kch, so you did; export $http_proxy=""
[06:25] <J4kch> sain: Whoops, forgot the $
[06:26] <sain> ok, once the $http_proxy isn't localhost, try it
[06:26] <J4kch> sain: Now I get a bunch of invalid identifier stuff
[06:26] <ompaul> mumbles, you are in a channel with 1k people and if they all did that it would be unsuable do this     >>/away put your reason here<< and then no one except the person who wants you knows that your off and we can all live in peace
[06:26] <PiTcReW> hmm
[06:26] <ompaul> s/unsuable/unusable/g
[06:26] <mumbles> sory ompaul  i normlay do - my irc crashed
[06:26] <Tigerman> ks3: its not in /proc/mounts..  and there is no other mkfs/fsck processes running..
[06:26] <PiTcReW> can someone help me?
[06:27] <ompaul> k
[06:27] <PiTcReW> i can't get mp3's to play
[06:27] <mumbles> and bnc went into action :(
[06:27] <sain> J4kch, ok one sec ... i don't use bash
[06:27] <jrib> J4kch: no, you don't use $ with export
[06:27] <PiTcReW> nevermind
[06:27] <stekotzurivychps> is it possible that vnc seems faster than windows remote desktop to me?
[06:27] <sain> J4kch, yeah
[06:28] <mwalling> ompaul: its back. lathargic, but back
[06:28] <ompaul> J4kch, export http_proxy=http://your.proxy.whatever:PORT_NUMBER
[06:28] <ks3> Tigerman, okay, how about mke2fs -F -n /dev/hdc1 (or whichever partition on hdc...)
[06:28] <jrib> J4kch: export http_proxy="" && echo $http_proxy       this should work
[06:28] <sindrum> pitcrew:ill try
[06:28] <ompaul> J4kch, also export ftp_proxy=http://your.proxy.whatever:PORT_NUMBER   (if it does the ftp also)
[06:28] <sain> ompaul, we want to get rid of his proxy setting
[06:28] <Tigerman> ks3: ill try that..
[06:28] <sindrum> pitcrew:what are you using to play them with
[06:29] <mateusz> hi
[06:29] <ompaul> sain, from? web browser or apt?
[06:29] <J4kch> jrib: it appears blank
[06:29] <justin_> Why does my "add/remove" programs always tell me my list is out of date no matter how many times I reload or update it? -- and even update apt- it still tells me this
[06:29] <jrib> J4kch: great, that's what we want right?
[06:29] <sain> J4kch, now try
[06:29] <Sikavica> How can I make rsh trusting my localhost? (putting localhost in .rhost, doesn't seem to work)
[06:29] <sain> ompaul, apt ... it was using the proxy
[06:29] <J4kch> jrib: still can't get the updates
[06:30] <ompaul> sain, very easy in synaptic
[06:30] <jrib> J4kch: are you doing 'sudo aptitude update' in the same terminal?
[06:30] <sain> ompaul, than talk him through it ... i don't run ubuntu :)
[06:30] <Tigerman> ks3: that got me a superblock list, yeah
[06:30] <ompaul> sain, seems he is getting enough help
[06:30] <ks3> Tigerman, excellent
[06:30] <sain> ompaul, only noticed his problem was that he was connecting to a proxy running on his local machine
[06:30] <J4kch> jrib: Not using terminal at all
[06:31] <Tigerman> ks3: 14 of them.. now i just need to hope one of them works?
[06:31] <jrib> J4kch: right, that variable was only reset in the terminal you issued that export command
[06:31] <salkot> justin_, maybe the date on your computer is wrong?
[06:31] <PiTcReW> hmm
[06:31] <PiTcReW> how do i change my screen resolution to 1440x900??
[06:31] <PiTcReW> its not in the list of resolutions
[06:31] <J4kch> jrib: Ohhh, I see what you did there
[06:32] <ks3> Tigerman, yep, one of them should be good
[06:32] <Tigerman> is there anyone more likely than the other ones?
[06:32] <J4kch> jrib: Alright, got the updates but Synaptic still won't work
[06:33] <ompaul> J4kch, are you in a terminal?
[06:33] <ks3> Tigerman, you could start with the last one, but it's hard to say...
[06:33] <J4kch> ompaul: yes
[06:33] <jrib> J4kch: ok, because outside your terminal http_proxy is still set to localhost:4001.  You have to find out what is setting it to that
[06:33] <Tigerman> i started with the 2nd to last :p
[06:33] <ompaul> J4kch, have you got synaptic open?
[06:33] <J4kch> jrib: alright
[06:33] <sain> J4kch, also until you find out what's setting up the proxy, you should put the export http_proxy="" in your $HOME/.bashrc
[06:33] <J4kch> ompaul: yes
[06:33] <lumpki> PiTcReW, to reconfigure X, do 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[06:33] <ompaul> %help
[06:33] <ubotu> (help [<plugin>]  [<command>] ) -- This command gives a useful description of what <command> does. <plugin> is only necessary if the command is in more than one plugin.
[06:33] <ompaul> J4kch, close it please
[06:33] <J4kch> ompaul: closed
[06:34] <ompaul> J4kch, please type >> sudo apt-get update << and tell me if it works or throws an error
[06:34] <lumpki> PiTcReW, that's 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' of course
[06:34] <J4kch> ompaul: gives error, but >> echo $http_proxy << shows localhost
[06:35] <bariel> hello, which tool i can use to combine pdfs file?
[06:35] <ompaul> Gwaihir, TURN OFF your away message - if it happens again I will ban you
[06:35] <PiTcReW> thanks lumpki
[06:35] <PiTcReW> this is my first day using linux so i didnt know
[06:35] <lumpki> np
[06:35] <Gwaihir> ompaul: sorry...
[06:35] <ompaul> J4kch, are you running squid or some such?
[06:36] <J4kch> ompaul: don't think so
[06:36] <ompaul> Gwaihir, k - please turn it off
[06:36] <PiTcReW> could someone tell me why kaffeine player attempts to play an mp3 file for a second or so and then stops?
[06:37] <ompaul> J4kch, in the terminal do this >> ps awux | grep squid | grep -v squid <<  does that give you any result?
[06:37] <PiTcReW> however rhythmbox works
[06:37] <J4kch> ompaul: nothing
[06:37] <ompaul> PiTcReW, that would be better asked in "#kubuntu"
[06:38] <sain> J4kch, from a quick google the most popular proxy using port 4001 is Java Anonymous Proxy ... you aren't using that , are you?
[06:38] <PiTcReW> thanks
[06:38] <J4kch> sain: was, uninstalled it
[06:38] <sain> J4kch, ah we get closer :)
[06:38] <ompaul> J4kch,  so it looks like you are not, so let us do this the easy gui way type >> gksu /usr/sbin/synaptic <<
[06:39] <HumanPrototype> hi all
[06:39] <ompaul> J4kch, tell me when it is launched
[06:39] <HumanPrototype> has anybody here tried customizing the ubuntu install cd?
[06:39] <J4kch> ompaul: launched
[06:40] <ompaul> J4kch, click settings -> network  and choose direct conneciton to internet
[06:40] <ompaul> J4kch, THEN choose apply
[06:40] <J4kch> ompaul: setting, preferences, network and done
[06:40] <jrib> J4kch, sain, ompaul: http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=310& seems familiar
[06:41] <sain> ompaul, he says he was using JAP proxy, and uninstalled it. For some reason it is still trying to use the proxy ...
[06:41] <ompaul> J4kch, now with that all okay and saved and whatever - click reload
[06:41] <bxnp> could somebody confirm that www.gnome-look.org is down
[06:41] <ompaul> sain, well he should not be pointing at it now :)
[06:41] <bobbyshafter> I am in the process of installing edgy in a dual boot .

[06:43] <HumanPrototype> has anybody here tried customizing the ubuntu install cd?
[06:43] <ompaul> sain, well his software should not be using it now if he has done what I said
[06:43] <sain> jrib, yeah, that looks right
[06:43] <ompaul> HumanPrototype, there is something on the wiki and there is gnewsense
[06:44] <sain> J4kch, so you've done "apt-get --purge remove anon-proxy"
[06:44] <lumpki> bxnp, it's not responding
[06:44] <ompaul> HumanPrototype, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization/Dapper
[06:44] <Tigerman> ks3: when you use the alternate superblocks to (try) to fix the fs, is it normal to get like 1k+ errors?
[06:44] <ompaul> sain, that was the gui thing I just did :)
[06:44] <justin_> :/
[06:44] <ks3> Tigerman, if there are lots of file system errors (which there very likely are if the superblock is corrupt)
[06:44] <sain> ompaul, ah ok, i'll leave it in your capable hands
[06:45] <sain> ompaul, just his $http_proxy keeps getting set back to localhost ....
[06:45] <J4kch> sain: It's uninstalled
[06:45] <jamesbrose> Has anybody else noticed the problem with VMware Player?
[06:45] <bxnp> there are rumors that the site is hacked
[06:45] <jamesbrose> It doesn't work for me.
[06:45] <Zaggynl> Hi, I've found this nice app on freshmeat, and I made a .deb file out of it, where can I propose to let this be added in the repository?
[06:45] <justin_> When VLC starts like.. skipping frames what could it be? - I know it is not the video because it does not skip on otehr machines, and I did a fresh reboot?
[06:45] <dcordes> how can i resume files in firefox?
[06:45] <ompaul> sain, I think what happened is that sudo apt-get remove --purge packagename was not doen
[06:45] <justin_> dcordes: you can't
[06:45] <ompaul> done that is
[06:46] <dcordes> justin_: no way?
[06:46] <justin_> dcordes: You only can in Opera by default, im sure there is a firefox extension for it
[06:46] <ompaul> justin_, it could be DMA
[06:46] <justin_> ompaul: You think? ..
[06:46] <ompaul> justin_, I know :)
[06:46] <J4kch> ompaul, sain: "Package anon-proxy is not installed so not removed"
[06:46] <ompaul> justin_, that is a 99% case
[06:46] <justin_> ompaul: Haha strange because it did not do it in Xubuntu, only does it in Ubuntu..
[06:46] <nothlit> dcordes, there are tons of download manager extensions in firefox
[06:46] <justin_> ompaul: Hrmm, have any quick solutions?
[06:47] <nothlit> for firefox*
[06:47] <sain> ompaul, yeah ... not being on ubuntu, how does he know make sure all the anon-proxy files are purged?
[06:47] <justin_> ohhh...
[06:47] <bobbyshafter> any help on yhe dual boot
[06:47] <sain> J4kch, yeah, it may be that when you removed it you didn't use the 'purge' argument, so didn't remove all the files
[06:47] <sindrum> dcordes you need the plugin
[06:47] <justin_> Maybe it will run fine in Flux :) -- I forgot Gnome uses more ram default then XFCE hehe.
[06:47] <justin_> let me go try that
[06:47] <ompaul> J4kch, but you did not did purge it first time out - you can reinstall and put it in again but just check now with the reload if it gets the files good if not then you might try a reinstall and a --purge
[06:47] <J4kch> sain: so I'd have to reinstall and purge?
[06:47] <Tigerman> ks3: "good"
[06:47] <J4kch> ompaul: mkay
[06:47] <nothlit> bobbyshafter, the desktop cd should automatically set that up for you with xp/ubuntu
[06:48] <sindrum> it use to be default but has changed
[06:48] <Tigerman> cause... i just had 2-3k errors :p
[06:48] <nothlit> bobbyshafter, if you have more than one linux  installation you'll have to edit grub
[06:49] <ompaul> J4kch, and note that you can't do sudo apt-get update and have synaptic open at the same time
[06:49] <wceoscar> what would be a good audio player?
[06:49] <ompaul> wceoscar, the default one, or xmms or whatever you like
[06:49] <wceoscar> ok
[06:49] <fuci> Why can't I change my resolution? It's in my xorg.conf file but it doesn't appear in the list in which you would normally change the resolution. I'm using Xubuntu.
[06:49] <bobbyshafter> hey i am using 2 drives and will boot from bios
[06:49] <J4kch> ompaul: I know that =P
[06:49] <sain> wceoscar, i like xmms
[06:50] <ompaul> !resolution | fuci
[06:50] <ubotu> fuci: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type "sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart" in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:50] <wceoscar> where can i get it in .deb?
[06:50] <fuci> ompaul: doesn't work.
[06:50] <HumanPrototype> ompaul, thanks - i had found the wiki page but i will look in to gnewsense
[06:50] <HumanPrototype> does anybody know what the rules are about using artwork deriving from the ubuntu logos for another project?
[06:50] <ompaul> J4kch, please understand, I don't know what you do or don't know, so I have to assumesomething
[06:51] <ompaul> HumanPrototype, you should not - as they are trademarks
[06:51] <J4kch> ompaul: true
[06:51] <sain> and it's mostly safe to assume you know nothing .... nothing!
[06:51] <sain> ;)
[06:51] <HumanPrototype> ompaul, so how are they used for things like nubuntu and xubuntu
[06:51] <sindrum> funci:you can reconfigure and select which resoulutions you can use
[06:51] <storkme> is it possible to install ubuntu server edition with the 6.06 install CD ? if so how
[06:52] <ompaul> HumanPrototype, they are part of the "ubuntu family" and approval was sought from canonical
[06:52] <fuci> sindrum: I did that, and after I did it. It doesn't work anymore.
[06:52] <Tigerman> ks3: now, if none of the superblocks will give me any good results, is that when i start crying, or is there a way to create a fresh, working, superblock?
[06:52] <grunt121-d8> hello?
[06:52] <wceoscar> where can i get the last xmms for ubuntu?
[06:52] <ks3> Tigerman, no way that I know of, short of reformmating the partition.... but that's no good...
[06:52] <J4kch> ompaul: I purged, but > echo $http_proxy < still shows localhost
[06:52] <sindrum> funci:dpkg-recofigure xserver-xorg
[06:52] <grunt121-d8> umm can sum 1 help me?
[06:52] <lumpki> fuci, did you restart X?
[06:52] <Tigerman> ks3: as i said.. "start crying" aka reformatting :p
[06:53] <fuci> lumpki: I did.
[06:53] <ks3> Tigerman, but if using one of the alternates started checking and came up with errors, it may be fixable
[06:53] <sindrum> funci:try that leaving everything as is except the resoulution
[06:53] <ks3> Tigerman, albeit, some data would be lost
[06:53] <ompaul> J4kch, reboot and see if it is there,
[06:53] <HumanPrototype> ompaul, ok, thanks
[06:53] <fuci> Well, doesn't hurt to try again. :p
[06:53] <fuci> Brb.
[06:53] <J4kch> ompaul: It also said "directory /var/run/anon-proxy not empty so not removed"
[06:53] <HumanPrototype> ompaul, how would I go about obtaining approval for a similar project?
[06:53] <sain> J4kch, doh, i assumed you rebooted :)
[06:53] <lumpki> wceoscar, use synaptic
[06:53] <grunt121-d8> sum 1 help me?
[06:53] <Tigerman> ks3: if i have to reformat the partition, all data will be lost as there is only one :p
[06:53] <ompaul> HumanPrototype, read the ubuntu website on trademarks
[06:53] <sain> J4kch, lol it's still running
[06:54] <lumpki> what is your question grunt121-d8?
[06:54] <ks3> Tigerman, well, yes
[06:54] <wceoscar> in synaptic it shows me like 100 files with xmms
[06:54] <marcin_ant> !raid
[06:54] <ubotu> Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[06:54] <ks3> Tigerman, but, you can try fsck -b <alternate superblock> -y /dev/hdc1
[06:54] <grunt121-d8> i have doom 3 and i wanna know how to record a AVI demo
[06:54] <Tigerman> -y is? same as -p?
[06:54] <lumpki> wceoscar, just install 'xmms' and it will grab anything else it needs
[06:54] <HumanPrototype> storkme, not that I know of
[06:54] <ks3> Tigerman, the fsck -p option tries to safely prune the file system...  -y tells it to assume yes to all questions
[06:54] <fuci> Didn not work :/
[06:54] <wceoscar> ok
[06:55] <sindrum> funci:dont forget to reboot
[06:55] <stoorty> how do i get apt-get to work? it says it cannot open the lock file??
[06:55] <stoorty> !apt-get
[06:55] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[06:55] <ks3> Tigerman, slightly different, if i remember correctly... -y doesn't care about saving data, just getting the file system mountable (more or less)
[06:55] <Tigerman> hmm.. -p in the description says auto repair tho..
[06:55] <lumpki> stoorty, use sudo apt-get ...
[06:55] <MattJ> How do I change the TTY X runs on?
[06:55] <Launchpad-Lap> hey guys is there an irc client for 64bit ubuntu?
[06:55] <stoorty> still get the xsame error lumpki
[06:55] <ck3> grunt121-d8: http://vnc2swf.sourceforge.net
[06:55] <lumpki> stoorty, close synaptic
[06:56] <lumpki> =D
[06:56] <sain> J4kch, you sure anon-proxy is stopped?
[06:56] <Tigerman> anyways.. ill try -y instead.. still got 12 superblocks to hope for a result with :p
[06:56] <ck3>  is the http://us.archive.ubuntu.com mirror having issues?
[06:56] <stoorty> it is closed, i already done that lumpki
[06:56] <ompaul> sain, there is the most obvious one :-)
[06:56] <gop> !usb flash
[06:56] <HumanPrototype> stoorty, you cannot run apt-get twice at the same time so you cant have the update manager, synaptic, apt-get or aptitude going when you try and open one of them

[06:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about usb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:56] <gop> I got one question
[06:57] <ks3> Tigerman, good luck
[06:57] <ompaul> sain, get progam "bum" installed and use it to turn off that proxy item simple gui for daemon management
[06:57] <gop> is thier a version of ubuntu, or linux that boots from a usb flash disk
[06:57] <gop> 2 gig or one gig
[06:57] <stoorty> i only have the one terminal open and i was trying to apt get ntfs-3g but i get the lock error

[06:57] <Tigerman> ks3: thanks, it appears ill need it :p
[06:57] <ompaul> l8r
[06:57] <sain> J4kch, get progam "bum" installed and use it to turn off that proxy item simple gui for daemon management
[06:57] <J4kch> well, I'm rebooting
[06:57] <gop> any here know, of a distro that support booting from usb
[06:57] <sain> J4kch, from ompaul
[06:57] <kitche> gop: dsl, slax is two
[06:57] <sain> J4kch, one sec
[06:57] <J4kch> sain: aight
[06:58] <fuci> Hmm, my system doesn't seem to go higher than 1280x960, normally I'd use 1280x1024
[06:58] <sain> J4kch, is there a anon-proxy.pid or similar in /var/run?
[06:58] <gop> oh kitche does it work like live, cd, as in after reboot I lose my infomation, kitche or it stores my information
[06:58] <gop> information
[06:58] <J4kch> sain: how do I check again? I forget
[06:58] <sindrum> funci:im not sure then...
[06:58] <sain> J4kch, ls /var/run in terminal
[06:59] <Lovloss> WEhenever I boot up it says my disk has errors i have to manually repair, and puts me in this shell.
[06:59] <J4kch> sain: right, well there is no .pid but there is anon-proxy
[06:59] <sain> J4kch, well reboot and see if it is still there
[06:59] <sain> J4kch, you should be ok
[06:59] <justin_> Well VLC works fine in Fluxbox.. so hmm I guess this :DMA: issue only occurs in Gnome ompaul ?
[06:59] <J4kch> sain: aight
[06:59] <fuci> All my fonts are messed up, this sucks :(
[06:59] <justin_> fuci: Go to preferences -> fonts
[07:00] <wceoscar> i just got XMMS but the volume doesnt works... it i try to lower it it wont...
[07:00] <justin_> wceoscar: Most likely another app has locked the sound controls.
[07:00] <Lovloss> is there a way to fsck my sda2? i cant really unmount it
[07:00] <sain> wceoscar, there is a setting in options for what mixer channel controls the volume
[07:00] <Lovloss> its my big data partition
[07:00] <justin_> You need to close the other app.. video player or even a flash vid, restart XMMS.
[07:01] <Lovloss> says /dev/sda2: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.
[07:01] <tryxter> hi everyone. i'm trying to install a D-Link DWL-G122 wlan usb stick for hours and still nothing. Can anyone give me an article or explain to me how to install it using WPA? please?
[07:01] <lumpki> stoorty, i think some other apt process must be running
[07:01] <tryxter> (i'm kind of a ubuntu newbie)
[07:01] <ademan> rather than using damn small linux or puppy linux, would it be possible for me to use gentoo to make my own minimal desktop, and then turn it into an ISO and then put it on a bootable thumbdrive?
[07:01] <justin_> By the way.. if your on big speakers you might want to change your XMMS options to OSS rather then Alsa, and click "master volume" controls.
[07:01] <wceoscar> What setting?
[07:01] <sain> ademan, it would be possible, but not reasonable
[07:02] <justin_> OSS sounds way better on big speakers :) -- especially for rock, Alsa works better for hiphop/dance/techno for some odd reason
[07:02] <ademan> sain: why not?
[07:02] <alecjw> ive got twinview working, but it's treating my CRT as the defualt display, wheras i want my DFP to be treated as defualt. how do i do this?
[07:02] <Lovloss> lets try this: is there any way for me to exit everything and get to the shell in such a way that i can dismount sda2 without my computer rebooting?
[07:02] <Lovloss> would umount -a work?
[07:02] <wceoscar> sain, whats that setting?
[07:02] <yannick_> "modprobe: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.15-27-amd64-generic/modules.dep: No such file or directory" using dapper. Does someone has ever seen such thing?
[07:03] <sain> wceoscar, options->preferences Then configure the output plugin under the Audio I/O plugins tab
[07:03] <Zehrila> God, why doesn't ubuntu come with a decent dial-up client? :(
[07:03] <Zehrila> How is one supposed to download one when one can't even connect?
[07:03] <kitche> Lovloss: do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop that will stop X and take you to the console
[07:03] <sain> ademan, because of the work involved, and the fact that gentoo like to build from source
[07:03] <fuci> The resolution & font problem is only when I log in with XFCE session, Gnome works fine.
[07:03] <sain> ademan, what do you have against damn small etc?
[07:04] <tryxter> can someone help me configuring my DWL-G122 stick? please!
[07:04] <justin_> Zehrila: Because most people are on broadband..
[07:04] <wceoscar> sain, there is no output plugin in the list...
[07:04] <justin_> Same reason Ubuntu does not ship with tons of DEV stuff, since most DEV's probably will not be using Ubuntu
[07:04] <sain> wceoscar, well that could be a problem :)
[07:04] <kitche> Zehrila: linux has a dial-up program go into networking and its the ppp connection
[07:04] <wceoscar> sain, i just found it
[07:04] <ademan> sain: i dunno i just kinda wanted to get newer releases of the involved software
[07:05] <lumpki> justin_, 50% of people still use dialup
[07:05] <wceoscar> sain, just fixed it
[07:05] <Zehrila> kitche: Ubuntu doesn't seem to have it.
[07:05] <sain> wceoscar, well then crank that puppy up
[07:05] <Zehrila> And justin_, isn't ubuntu the linux for everyone rather than for just those on broadband?
[07:05] <rummik> i just installed camorama and when it comes up it says it cannot connect to the video device (/dev/video0) however, lsmod says "videodev               11456  1 spca5xx" spca5xx is the module for my camera
[07:05] <wceoscar> i will ;)
[07:05] <sain> ademan, if it's any help, i did the same thing but with freebsd
[07:05] <wceoscar> hey
[07:05] <justin_> lumpki: Where ?
[07:05] <justin_> wow..
[07:06] <lumpki> everywhere
[07:06] <kitche> Zehrila: sure it does I m looking at mine right now, it should show a phone symbol next to it in the networking part it's under System -> networking
[07:06] <justin_> Why dial-up is almost as expensive as broadband
[07:06] <wceoscar> I Have like 39 of unallocated space... how can i partition it with ntfs or fat32???
[07:06] <wceoscar> 39gigs
[07:06] <lumpki> broadband is not available everywhere
[07:06] <defrysk> Zehrila, system > administration > networking
[07:06] <sain> wceoscar, well first, i'd recommend formatting with fat32 if you want windows interoperability
[07:07] <Zehrila> kitche: The one which you have to check/uncheck to enable/disable? If you're referring to that one, it does nothing for me when I check/uncheck even after enabling it in its properties.
[07:07] <ademan> sain: well alright thanks, at least i know its possible, now i just need to decide if that's what i want to do.  (In addition to wanting to have newer versions of things, i want a few extra programs i know are NOT bundled with dsl)
[07:07] <J4kch> Hey guys
[07:07] <J4kch> What's up?
[07:07] <kitche> !dialup|Zehrila
[07:07] <ubotu> Zehrila: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[07:07] <Zehrila> ubotu: Alright, lemme take a look.

[07:08] <sain> ademan, yeah, and remember you'll have to either compile the progs on the usb stick, or elsewhere then put the binaries and dependencies on the stick
[07:08] <Zehrila> BTW is there a way for me to download gnome-ppp while using windows and then install it from ubuntu? I've got one multiboot system.
[07:08] <sain> J4kch, so?
[07:08] <wceoscar> sain, i know that.. im sharing the space with windows... how can i partition the drive with fat?
[07:08] <Zehrila> gnome-ppp doesn't seem to be included with the gnome packages provided on CD.
[07:08] <J4kch> sain: Don't rush me! =P
[07:08] <sain> J4kch, lol
[07:08] <J4kch> sain: Echo looks fine
[07:09] <errorlevel> Zehrila: Yes.  Go on http://packages.ubuntu.com and find the .deb file.  Make sure you grab the dependencies if you need them.  Then you can install them from within ubuntu using dpkg -i filename.deb or dpkg -i filename1.deb filename2.deb ...
[07:09] <tryxter> ** dwl
[07:09] <sain> wceoscar, well you could use the install disk, would be easiest
[07:09] <J4kch> sain: anon-proxy is gone from /var/run
[07:09] <manmadha> hee when ever i delete certain files ..... *.*~ is forming.....What is the meaning of this...?
[07:09] <wceoscar> ok
[07:09] <sain> J4kch, cool, how about the ole update?
[07:10] <J4kch> sain: It's working!
[07:10] <J4kch> sain: I love you man, you and jrib and ompaul...
[07:10] <sain> J4kch, hot diggity dawg
[07:10] <Lapfunc> hi.  i installed enigma, and it changed my resolution down.  now that i've exited, it didn't change the resolution back up, and i can't seem to change it through system->administration.  the desktop is still 1024x768, but the screen is something like 640x480, and i have to move the mouse to the edge of the screen to scroll it
[07:10] <sain> J4kch, lol, if i had sussed out it was still running, we could have save many minutes :)
[07:10] <J4kch> sain: I want to have your child
[07:10] <manmadha> any body there?
[07:11] <sain> J4kch, so does the gf ... neither of you is getting it
[07:11] <Lapfunc> any ideas how i return my resolution to normal?
[07:11] <Zehrila> Thanks a lot errorlevel and kitche both. I think that's the stuff I needed.

[07:12] <J4kch> sain: there isn't one, I just like hanging around here

[07:20] <Lapfunc> ubotu: i wanted to do it without restarting x if possible.  is that the only way?
[07:20] <lumpki> manmadha, how exactly are you deleting... command line or what?
[07:20] <Lapfunc> ah sorry, missed that last bit
[07:20] <Lapfunc> i'll read that
[07:20] <manmadha> lumpki, shift+del
[07:20] <redDEADresolve> sain any helpful hints on that, last time i hashed out and added no auto to sda1 mounting parameters and it allowed my internal card reader to work
[07:20] <manmadha> i have to rm that shit
[07:20] <manmadha> *~
[07:21] <lumpki> in nautilus?
[07:21] <manmadha> nope

[07:21] <sain> redDEADresolve, hmm don't really know, sorry
[07:21] <princemackenzie> are bluefish/nvu the best choices for web authoring?

[07:22] <princemackenzie> sain, im not nearly l33t enough for vi
[07:22] <sain> princemackenzie, ah, then don't worry about 'web authoring'
[07:22] <bruenig> can't even say 1337 right
[07:22] <sain> too many dilletantes already
[07:22] <manmadha> defrysk, yaa i know ..But why the file is forming...when i shift+ del it
[07:23] <manmadha> ?
[07:23] <princemackenzie> let me rephrase
[07:23] <zach635> linux ppc suppost suxxors ><
[07:23] <zach635> *support
[07:23] <princemackenzie> if i want to put up an ugly website, whats my best choice
[07:23] <rNIUS> hi everybody!
[07:23] <bruenig> princemackenzie, vim
[07:23] <sain> princemackenzie, ah that's better. But seriously, i dunno
[07:23] <sain> lol bruenig
[07:23] <manmadha> princemackenzie, on windows..!!!!!!!!!!!!
[07:23] <bruenig> vi improvied
[07:23] <bruenig> s/improvied/improved
[07:23] <sain> princemackenzie, i have looked at those, out of interest, and they blow large chunks
[07:24] <J4kch> damn updates, I need to restart
[07:24] <sain> some wierd wysiwyg
[07:24] <J4kch> can't be bothered -_-
[07:24] <princemackenzie> sain, alright
[07:24] <zach635> gl hf, going back to osx ^^
[07:25] <wceoscar> when i enter the shell ctrl+alt+F1 the fonts there seem to be laggy and taller than wider... cani change the res or resolve this prob?
[07:26] <manmadha> wceoscar, it is closing its x-windows
[07:26] <manmadha> may be
[07:26] <manmadha> sorry
[07:27] <sain> wceoscar, you mean your console fonts?
[07:27] <wceoscar> the shell works properly the problem is how the characters are dsplayed... the fonts look taller than wider
[07:27] <sain> wceoscar, i think there is a console-tools package or similar that helps to tweak such things
[07:27] <wceoscar> YEs.. the console FONTS
[07:27] <Jahman> hi
[07:28] <wceoscar> how can i fix that???? it looks like crap
[07:29] <Raven> anybody got any good Ubuntu wallpapers
[07:29] <sain> you'll have to google, or get someone else to tell you ... i'm on another system
[07:29] <princemackenzie> Raven, ubuntu specific or good wallpaper in general
[07:29] <sain> wceoscar, try console-tools maybe
[07:29] <Raven> good wallpaper and Ubuntu
[07:30] <wceoscar> wheres that locates sain?
[07:30] <princemackenzie> Raven, www.interfacelift.com has excellent wallpaper
[07:30] <wubrgamer> hey guys
[07:30] <wubrgamer> quick poll
[07:30] <Vorbote> wceoscar: have you already tried to reconfigure the console-tools package?
[07:30] <sain> wceoscar, dunno, but it's around
[07:30] <wceoscar> nope
[07:30] <princemackenzie> Raven, for ubuntu, you can poke around the gallery on the forums, www.ubuntuforums.org
[07:30] <wubrgamer> what IRC client are you using ?
[07:30] <christian1222> Hi Guys, I just installed Ubuntu 6.06 on my computer in a protest against windows and proprietary software. Does anyone know of a good book for beginners with some cmputer knowledge, but none fo linux?
[07:30] <princemackenzie> wubrgamer, XChat
[07:30] <sain> wubrgamer, just reading raw packets
[07:31] <linux_kid> wubrgamer: Xchat
[07:31] <sain> wubrgamer, with tcpdump
[07:31] <princemackenzie> sain, lmao
[07:31] <Vorbote> wceoscar: Hmmm.. that would be console-setup instead (things have changed a bit lately).
[07:31] <wceoscar> vorbe, where is that setting located?
[07:31] <Raven> Cheers m8, some good stuff on their
[07:31] <sain> wceoscar, ah, follow Vorbote's advice ... not mine :)
[07:32] <linux_kid> Anyone here know how to install pictosniff? (it reads Nintendo DS pictochat chatrooms)
[07:32] <sain> hmm wubgamer went to investigate tcpdump as an IRC client
[07:32] <hexdream> Where do I find the FAQ/usage guidlines for #ubuntu
[07:32] <sain> hexdream, you actually want to read them?
[07:32] <nothlit> why would people sniff pictochat
[07:33] <hou5ton> How can I set smb4k so that I can open it as user, instead of having to be root?
[07:33] <linux_kid> nothlit: because they have no better use of time...
[07:33] <helpme> hello
[07:33] <hexdream> never hurts ;-) actually they can hurt. Just want to make sure I dont step on any toes.
[07:33] <helpme> Hi guys! How are you guys doing?
[07:33] <sk0r`> hello all
[07:33] <sain> hexdream, i think the only rule is; don't make Seveas angry
[07:33] <nothlit> christian1222, theres an official ubuntu book, if not oreilly has tons of great educational books and theres a book for mepis thats supposed to be pretty good
[07:33] <sk0r`> just stopping by to say ubuntu rocks my face off
[07:34] <Seveas> sk0r`, doesn't that hurt?
[07:34] <ademan> gparted won't let me format a usb disk, is that supposed to be that way?
[07:34] <sain> sk0r`, missing faces are covered in #noface-ubuntu
[07:34] <hexdream> fair enough. different people anger in different ways.
[07:34] <wceoscar> vorbote, where is that console stting at?
[07:34] <Vorbote> wceoscar: A small beginers hint: Open synaptic, search for the package click on its name and select configure package (somewhere in the menus). Or open a terminal emulator and type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup". I find the latter easier but many are afraid of the command line...
[07:34] <helpme> I need some help with GRUB
[07:34] <sain> helpme, lay it on me
[07:34] <helpme> thank you sain.
[07:35] <nothlit> synaptic has a tie-in to dpkg-reconfigure?
[07:35] <Vorbote> nothlit: yes
[07:35] <sk0r`> :D
[07:35] <sain> helpme, oh, i wouldn't be doing the thanking yet
[07:35] <sain> synaptic is a front-end to dpkg/apt
[07:35] <helpme> We (me and a friend) have installed Ubuntu Daper on his comp.
[07:35] <nothlit> =/ why can't synaptic use aptitude then
[07:35] <sain> so yeah, a bit of a tie in ;)
[07:35] <Magusknight> how do i run a shellscript
[07:35] <sain> aptitude is different
[07:35] <helpme> After installing, there was no GRUB.
[07:36] <helpme> so, SInce from the beguining ther ewas no grub, I don't know what to do. I can't use "restore grub"
[07:36] <nothlit> sain, yeah it uses apt-get (and apt-cache?) but i didn't know it ties into dpkg-reconfigure
[07:36] <sain> helpme, so you can't boot up?
[07:36] <helpme> We can only boot Ubuntu
[07:36] <helpme> but, he also has WIndows OS on it
[07:36] <nothlit> helpme, use the alternate install cd, super grub disk, or regular grub disk
[07:36] <nothlit> you could always use loadlin
[07:36] <sain> helpme, you'll have to install grub again
[07:36] <wceoscar> vorbote, what should i select on encoding the console?
[07:36] <helpme> but, since ther eis no GRUB, we cannot choose which OS to run
[07:36] <slammm> ubuntu = teh best
[07:36] <slammm> XD
[07:36] <slammm> thanks guys
[07:37] <sain> helpme, but you say it will boot into ubuntu?
[07:37] <helpme> yes
[07:37] <helpme> it only boots Ubuntu
[07:37] <sain> helpme, if it does, boot into ubuntu then apt-get install grub
[07:37] <helpme> it dosn't display the Grub at all.
[07:37] <helpme> looks like grub wasn't isntalled
[07:37] <nothlit> sain, aptitude still can use install remove purge update upgrade dist-upgrade
[07:37] <helpme> ok. sudo aptitude install grub
[07:37] <slammm> ciao
[07:37] <kitche> helpme: do you see a ubuntu logo?
[07:38] <Vorbote> wceoscar: I supppose you Speak a western european language, thus utf-8 with iso-8859-15 translitaration is the default (and most appropriate setting).
[07:38] <LjL> sain: aptitude is also a frontend to dpkg/apt, it's just that it also does some backend-like stuff of its own...
[07:38] <J4kch> sain: I just downloaded this .mov file, it doesn't show properly on VLC, any suggestions?
[07:38] <sain> nothlit, yeah, aptitude is better as it removes uneeded dependencies, unlike apt ...
[07:38] <nothlit> helpme, grub is install, its just invisible unless you hit esc at the right time
[07:38] <Vorbote> s/tranlitaration/(transliteration/
[07:38] <craigp84> i've been tasked with deploying linux on a small network... what tools should i read up on to allow me to control desktop profiles - like GPO in windows?
[07:38] <sain> J4kch, mplayer?
[07:38] <syock> My computer can suspend and hibernate. If I suspend, I can have it wake-up by moving the mouse. While it can be convenient for some people, I don`t like it when it wakes up by itself when I accidentally bumped the desk. So I want to remap the wake-up trigger to just the sleep button on the keyboard.
[07:38] <nothlit> helpme, do gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:38] <sain> LjL, ok, i defer to your greater knowledge
[07:38] <kmasta> hey guys, when ever my computer come out of powersave mode, my internet connection doesn't work. When I try to shut it down I can't get the shut down menu to come up and I have to manual restart the computer
[07:38] <LjL> sain, i was just saying.
[07:38] <slammm> hey, how long will it take for delivery of cds?
[07:38] <sain> LjL, yeah, i wasn't being sarcastic
[07:39] <pr0cheater> hi
[07:39] <wceoscar> vorbote, i speak native american english
[07:39] <slammm> hey, how long will it take for delivery of cds?
[07:39] <wceoscar> is that iso-8859?
[07:39] <Vorbote> wceoscar: then don't touch the defaults.
[07:39] <kitche> slamm: depedns but it's 1-3 business weeks
[07:39] <Vorbote> wceoscar: do fiddle with the font settings there.
[07:39] <helpme> hi.
[07:39] <helpme> This is me in the Ubutforums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=311808

[07:40] <simon92> hi i need help: when I installed the nvidia driver my 2nd core get lost in the system where you can see the processes is just one core before that there was a second my cpu x2 3800
[07:40] <slammm> i live in the UK
[07:40] <LjL> sain: also BTW, on Edgy apt-get adds an unused-dependencies-auto-removal feature of its own. myself i've switched back to apt-get (though there are still some features that can be handy in aptitude, but i guess i never used them much...)
[07:40] <wceoscar> vorbote, then shoud i cancel that part or select utf?
[07:40] <sain> slammm, took 3 weeks for them to get the cds to me in Australia
[07:40] <The_Evil_One> does ubuntu support ICH7 sound card?
[07:40] <slammm> ok thanks sain
[07:40] <slammm> im off now
[07:40] <slammm> take care
[07:40] <sain> LjL, ah, good to know ... i have to confess i don't even use ubuntu ...
[07:41] <J4kch> sain: lol
[07:41] <sain> but i like to pretend i do, because of the hype :)
[07:42] <Magusknight> sain: so what do you use?
[07:42] <sain> Magusknight, oh no, this could get all nasty ;)
[07:42] <sain> freebsd
[07:42] <J4kch> sain: how do I get mplayer?
[07:42] <sain> but i install ubuntu for a lot of people
[07:42] <LjL> sain: well, perhaps the auto-removal feature will be backported to Debian as well, who knows... (well perhaps somebody does, just not me =)
[07:42] <boink> apt-get install mplayer, how else?
[07:42] <sain> J4kch, um apt-get install mplayer ?
[07:43] <Magusknight> sain: why?
[07:43] <bruenig> J4kch, sudo apt-get install mplayer, you need to enable the extra repos first
[07:43] <boink> you'll need the right codecs as well
[07:43] <boink> you should apt-get install the right codecs first
[07:43] <J4kch> package isn't available
[07:43] <kmasta> hey guys, my network connection keeps dropping when ever i come out of powersave mode, what's going on?
[07:43] <sain> Magusknight, many reasons, none of which should be elucidated on this channel
[07:43] <boink> then you need to adjust your /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:43] <bruenig> J4kch, could you pastebin your sources.list
[07:43] <bruenig> !paste
[07:43] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)

[07:44] <slop> i'm having problems with fglrx....after upgrading to edgy, i installed fglrx, and i get these errors:  "[fglrx]  API ERROR: could not register entrypoint for .....

[07:44] <sain> J4kch, you've got to add all the fun repositories to your sources.list
[07:44] <sain> J4kch, i'm sure there's an easy 'ubuntu way' to do it
[07:44] <hexdream> Does anybody know of a way to take the repository DVD's and run them off the hard disk (in a specific folder). Im sick of pushing & pulling disks.
[07:44] <J4kch> pretend that I don't know how to open the sources.list
[07:45] <J4kch> and tell me how to do it =P
[07:45] <bruenig> J4kch, gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:45] <bruenig> J4kch, then copy and paste to that url
[07:45] <Zaggynl> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1839967
[07:45] <J4kch> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35198/
[07:46] <J4kch> looks like they are enabled
[07:46] <sain> J4kch, you can also add repositories through synaptic ... like settings->repositories or similar
[07:47] <nothlit> sain, how up to date are the ports?
[07:47] <J4kch> sain: I'd have to know which ones to add
[07:47] <bruenig> J4kch, first you probably should delete that breezy line if you are't using it
[07:47] <bruenig> J4kch, add this line at the top
[07:47] <bruenig> deb http://uk.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper main restricted universe multiverse
[07:47] <nothlit> J4kch, system administration software sources
[07:47] <bruenig> J4kch, oh you will have to do sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list in order to edit
[07:48] <nothlit> bruenig, you can use the "software sources" app
[07:48] <zugu> hello
[07:48] <bruenig> nothlit, you can edit the sources.list
[07:48] <slop> how would i go about updating a link (libGL.so.1)?  i just want to replace it with a new copy that points to libGL.so.1.2
[07:49] <zugu> i'm having some problems with the tcp/ip ports: some bittorrent clients are reporting blocked ports on my system, however, there are applications using whatever ports they like
[07:49] <J4kch> bruenig, added
[07:49] <zugu> is there a centralised port management thing?
[07:49] <bruenig> J4kch, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install mplayer
[07:49] <bruenig> zugu, I used firestarter to open bittorrent ports
[07:49] <nothlit> bruenig, you said pretend you don't know how to edit the sources.list file, so i was talking about the noob way
[07:49] <bruenig> zugu, sudo apt-get install firestarter, if you wish to try it
[07:50] <zugu> bruenig, thank you
[07:50] <hou5ton> I have a program, SMB4K, that I want to have always mount as root and do so automatically when I boot up. HOw do I do that?
[07:51] <boink> is there an ubuntu tv-card page?
[07:51] <bruenig> !tvout
[07:51] <ubotu> For help with enabling the TV-Out on certain NVidia cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOutNewbieEdition
[07:51] <J4kch> okay, I have mplayer now. Is there a way to get ALL of the codecs?
[07:52] <nothlit> bruenig, why would he need to install a firewall in order to open ports? i'm guessing he hasn't done anything with iptables

[07:52] <bruenig> nothlit, I didn't tell him to do so, I simply remarked that that is what I did to do so.
[07:52] <nothlit> zugu, are those other apps you installed thing like apache ssh or vnc?
[07:52] <J4kch> bruenig: danke
[07:53] <nothlit> zugu, or  just things like media players and browsers
[07:53] <bruenig> nothlit, iptables was maddening. Perhaps that is my incompetence but I generally am able to grasp things and that I was not.
[07:53] <zugu> nothlit, no, it's azureus, bittornado and utorrent under wine
[07:53] <nothlit> zugu, no "there are applications using whatever ports they like" ... what are these apps
[07:53] <zugu> nothlit, other apps, like amule, the default gnome torrent client or dc++ are able to freely use the ports
[07:54] <nothlit> zugu, that means you probably need to edit your router settings to open up 6881
[07:54] <nothlit> zugu, or its because you haven't opened it up tcp & udp
[07:54] <zugu> nothlit, what app is using that port?
[07:55] <helpme> there is no package grub in edgy
[07:55] <zugu> nothlit, tcp & udp are open, otherwise amule or dc++ would not function
[07:55] <helpme> sudo aptitude install grub, dosn't give anything
[07:55] <nothlit> zugu, things like the default torrent  client probably don't bother complaining about not being able to accept connections since it can still make them
[07:55] <nothlit> zugu, thats just the default torrent port
[07:55] <tonyyarusso> !info grub edgy
[07:55] <ubotu> grub: GRand Unified Bootloader. In component main, is optional. Version 0.97-11ubuntu14 (edgy), package size 359 kB, installed size 764 kB
[07:55] <nothlit> zugu, it'll depend on the app and the settings

[07:56] <zugu> nothlit, the default gnome torrent client is set to randomly use ports between 10000 and 15000, and it's working properly, while azureus and utorrent say that they cannot use random ports, such as 12345
[07:56] <ernz> Hello, how do I "Add a repo"?
[07:57] <Dreetn> I have xp and I want to install ubuntu on another partition, so I set my 1th boot device on my disk station and I insert the disk with the .iso file
[07:57] <nothlit> zugu, like i said, its probably that the mainline client doesn't complain about either udp or receiving connections (in the server sense)
[07:57] <Dreetn> But then xp just starts...
[07:57] <stoorty> set it to boot from cd?
[07:58] <hexdream> have you tried the super grub disk. Saved my butt after a botched dual boot. http://supergrub.forjamari.linex.org/
[07:58] <Dreetn> I did
[07:58] <stoorty> or use the libve cd and install from that
[07:58] <bruenig> zugu, I installed firestarter. Then just went to policy and opened the ports. Then configured utorrent to use those ports and it was good
[07:58] <Dreetn> ok
[07:58] <nothlit> zugu, downloading still works fine if you haven't set it up properly
[07:58] <ernz> !beryl
[07:58] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-xgl
[07:58] <nothlit> zugu, because a client can still make connections
[07:59] <zugu> nothlit, they need to use random ports, because there are trackers that do not accept connections on the default torrent port
[07:59] <nothlit> zugu, but things like azureus and utorrent will complain because its one sided
[07:59] <bruenig> nothlit, yeah if you want to leech. If you are firewalled you cannot connect to other people who are firewalled. So if everyone was firewalled, bittorrent wouldn't work.
[07:59] <^FrIenD^> Ciao a TuTTi
[07:59] <nothlit> bruenig, i know, im just explaining why he might not have got an 'error' message from the mainline client
[07:59] <bitflip> CPP2e.html || Pastes to http://cpp.sf.net || Be patient, courteous, and precise...this is C++, we  all have our segfaults. We don't do homework.
[07:59] <nothlit> bruenig, i am not telling him to violate the spirit of bittorrent
[08:00] <bruenig> nothlit, oh ok, I mean we steal things, but we don't go as far as maintaining harmful firewalls, come on
[08:00] <nothlit> zugu, so how do you connect to the internet? through another computer? through a router? dialing into the cable modem?
[08:00] <J4kch> sigh, linux needs flash player support
[08:00] <bruenig> J4kch, it has flashplayer support
[08:00] <J4kch> how am I supposed to watch youtube videos without flash?
[08:01] <nothlit> bruenig, T.T please very carefully reread what i wrote from the very beginning before you accuse me of that again.
[08:01] <DARKGuy> yay
[08:01] <J4kch> bruenig, not the latest version which is needed
[08:01] <kitche> J4kch: linux does have flash support unless your on an 64-bit distro

[08:05] <javaJake> ernz: beryl is just for redeon
[08:05] <Washboy> Super_Cat_Frog: Check if you have the xgl package and remove it ;). Thats should clear things up :P.
[08:05] <J4kch> bruenig, Don't rush me! =P
[08:05] <javaJake> kitche: no not so easy. :)

[08:07] <morisal2> mhgf
[08:07] <ernz> javaJake: So will beryl not work for me? What should I use instead?
[08:07] <kitche> ernz: you don't need XGL to run beryl but with the drivers that ubuntu uses you will probably need to use xGL sicne they are not the latest
[08:07] <bruenig> J4kch, what was the error and when did it show up, what command did you run before it showed up
[08:08] <bruenig> are the us repos down?

[08:29] <Slart> Hello. Does anyone know where the small application "Screen resolution Preferences" gets the values to put into the drop down boxes? from xorg.conf? somewhere else?
[08:29] <aleka> Does this mean a bad install Cd?
[08:29] <avilella> hi all, I am trying to get ubuntu-home-backup to install
[08:29] <Slart> Donald1: check /usr/local/games.. might be there
[08:29] <kitche> aleka: most likely
[08:29] <avilella> but there seems to be something wrong
[08:29] <x-r00t-x> alef0, no its not dhc its hda
[08:29] <x-r00t-x> hdc*
[08:29] <Firefishe> bruenig: understood...that paste is only a possibility, I haven't changed it yet.  What happened is, after adding the key, I did a Reload in Synaptic, and got some update connect errors.

[08:30] <ernz> I am trying to add repos, and when I hit refresh I get an error: "http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org edgy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available" Why is this?
[08:30] <assasukasse> hi all, how can i make a windows share password to be saved in keyring so i am not asked anymore?
[08:30] <aleka> hdc would be my CDROM x-r00t-x
[08:30] <Firefishe> bruenig: it was asking for something that ended in Release.gpg and Release
[08:30] <Firefishe> bruenig: which it did not do before
[08:30] <x-r00t-x> hmm
[08:30] <aleka> kitche, can you give me a simple step to checksum the iso image I downloaded?
[08:30] <Firefishe> bruenig: it only happened after adding the key
[08:30] <bruenig> Firefishe, I haven't been able to connect to the us repos today so perhaps that is where the problem lies?
[08:30] <sebaji> como llego a ubuntu en espaol?

[08:30] <kitche> aleka: md5sum in linux there is a gui for windows to check
[08:30] <Donald1> Slart: how do i access the directory?
[08:30] <Firefishe> bruenig: that would explailn a lot
[08:31] <aleka> I am in Ubuntu now
[08:31] <ernz> The key it's looking for is "NO_PUBKEY 5A947CF51609B551" but it can't be found

[08:31] <sebaji> thanks
[08:31] <lumpki> Donald1, just try launching them from a command line
[08:31] <kitche> aleka: then md5sum <file>.md5
[08:31] <Firefishe> bruenig: I'll go back and check something, and delete t hose similiar lines
[08:31] <lumpki> they should ebin your path
[08:31] <Slart> Donald1: if it is there you should be able to just do a "ls /usr/local/games" from a console
[08:31] <aleka> ok
[08:31] <lumpki> they should be in your path
[08:31] <J4kch> What is the best bittorrent client?
[08:31] <Firefishe> bruenig: thanks
[08:31] <kitche> !best|J4kch
[08:31] <ubotu> J4kch: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[08:31] <aleka> hmm... I reckon I downloaded the md5 file when I downloaded the iso
[08:31] <bruenig> J4kch, utorrent through wine
[08:31] <Slart> J4kch: azureus? ... many like it, some dont
[08:31] <Donald1> Slart: i typed in ls /usr/local/games but nothing happened
[08:32] <J4kch> Aight, thanks guys
[08:32] <aleka> is the md5 part of the iso image?
[08:32] <lumpki> Donald1, just try typing 'boson'
[08:32] <Donald1> lumpki: I can't because i don't know where they are!
[08:32] <bruenig> aleka, no the md5 is seperate
[08:32] <Slart> Donald1: it was just a suggestion.. they might be somewhere else.. what game was it?
[08:32] <ernz> kitche: Why an I getting a "The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 5A947CF51609B551" error. I am following the HowTo to the letter?
[08:32] <Donald1> Slart: there was freecraft and boson

[08:33] <kitche> ernz: you need the key's for apt for the beryl repo
[08:33] <Donald1> Lumpki: it's ok, i found boson
[08:33] <lumpki> Donald1, you can go back into synaptic and check the files that were installed
[08:33] <zOap> is there a free ram app for ubuntu?
[08:33] <ernz> kitche: how do I do that?
[08:34] <crackcorn> howdy, how can i find out what modules are loaded
[08:34] <kitche> ernz: it's apt-key is the command not sure how to do it myself really
[08:34] <crackcorn> specifically sound
[08:34] <justin_> How can I add a program that I compiled into the Gnome programs menu manually?
[08:34] <lumpki> Donald1, when you install things, they usually are put somewhere in your PATH, so you can just launch them without knowing where they are
[08:34] <DARKGuy> w 3
[08:34] <DARKGuy> oops.
[08:34] <christian1222> can i get apt-get adobe reader?
[08:34] <justin_> apt-get install

[08:34] <Donald1> Lumpki: ok, thank you very much
[08:34] <christian1222> haha
[08:34] <ernz> kitche: wget http://beryl-mirror.lupine.me.uk/1609B551.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - <<For some reason they put that AFTER the refresh!!????
[08:34] <Slart> Donald1: when I installed freecraft it ended up in "usr/games/freecraft"

[08:34] <aleka> kitche, bruenig this is where I downloaded it from >> http://www.ubuntu.com/products/GetUbuntu/download#currentrelease and I don't see a link for an md5 file

[08:35] <assasukasse> noone knows how to save a windows share password in keyring so that i am not asked every time i boot?
[08:35] <storkme> how do i check if a filesystem has errors on linux?
[08:35] <lumpki> Donald1, once you know the command, you can create a launcher in the menu or on the desktop
[08:35] <ArrenLex> storkme: fsck
[08:35] <salty-horse> hi. inwhich package can i find the glibc man pages? (it's not in glibc-doc)
[08:35] <storkme> assasukasse, can't you put it in /etc/fstab?
[08:35] <christian1222> ArrenLex: thanks
[08:35] <DARKGuy> Slart: Whenever you install some program or game, usually you just type the app/game's name the same way
[08:35] <Slart> Donald1: and if you know the command you can always do a "whereis freecraft" in console.. to find where it is
[08:36] <storkme> ArrenLex, fsck with which args
[08:36] <assasukasse> storkme i prefer to click on the share link on the desktop, but it asks me the windows admin password all the time, which i dont want..
[08:36] <Donald1> Slart: ok
[08:36] <ArrenLex> storkme: fsck /dev/<whatever>, as long as your filesystem is unmounted or mounted read-only.
[08:36] <storkme> assasukasse, share link? i don't have one of those
[08:36] <Slart> DARKGuy: yes, i know.
[08:37] <Slart> hmm.. my freecraft core dumped.. =/
[08:37] <storkme> ArrenLex, it wouldn't work - 'The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem' :|
[08:37] <DARKGuy> oops.
[08:37] <ArrenLex> storkme: what type of filesystem is it?
[08:37] <drcode> hi all
[08:37] <storkme> ArrenLex, it was ext3 when i made it
[08:38] <assasukasse> storkme i have a link to my windows shared folder on my desktop...i made from connect to server
[08:38] <joseph> can anyone tell me how i would get a list of all of the available irc channels
[08:38] <ArrenLex> storkme: Should work. Try running "sudo fsck.ext3 /dev/<whatever>" directly
[08:38] <storkme> assasukasse, it might be wise to put the connect command in /etc/fstab and make it mount it every time you log in
[08:38] <ArrenLex> joseph: /list works for me.
[08:38] <assasukasse> storkme do u have a wiki or anything else for that?
[08:39] <storkme> ArrenLex, same error.. does it make a difference that i'm on a live cd ?
[08:39] <drcode> I have problem with pppconfig
[08:39] <Slart> ouch... my x gdm keeps restarting when I try to run games in full screen
[08:39] <drcode> I use modem
[08:39] <ArrenLex> storkme: You're trying to check a system on your hard drive from a live-cd? There shouldn't be any problems with that. Run "sudo fdisk -l" to make sure you're trying to check the correct filesystem, though.
[08:39] <drcode> is there support for HSF modem under linux?
[08:39] <storkme> assasukasse, try this: http://tinyurl.com/59oyc
[08:40] <Rambo3> storkme whats the error , i think you can run it only on live cd
[08:40] <drcode> I need to buy driver or I can use free driver?
[08:40] <joseph> thanks arren
[08:40] <Jassossovinik> I can gain access to a remote server via ssh. I want to backup a directory on that machine onto this machine, but I can't work out how to do it.  How should I go about this?
[08:40] <storkme> ArrenLex, apparently /dev/sda doesn't contain a valid partition table which is my bad i think.. i guess that means i need to create one?
[08:40] <lumpki> drcode, it depends on the modem i think
[08:40] <drcode> I have pci connext
[08:40] <Slart> my resolution preferences thingy in ubuntu says I can only chose between 50Hz and 54Hz in horizontal refresh rate.. that cant be right.. how can I change it?
[08:40] <drcode> zoltrix modem
[08:40] <assasukasse> storkme thanks, do u have a clue how to make a touchscreen work?
[08:40] <joseph> exit
[08:41] <ArrenLex> storkme: o_O if it doesn't have a valid partition table, then there are no filesystems on it you can possibly check.
[08:41] <storkme> assasukasse, sorry buddy, no idea. google would be a good place to start
[08:41] <aleka> HOw do you verify the integrity of an iso file?
[08:41] <lumpki> drcode, did you check out linuxant.com?
[08:41] <Slart> aleka: check md5/crc32 if you know what they are supposed to be?
[08:42] <ompaul> Stork, don't say that, just say you don't know, if the word google is being used we give a full url targeted to solving the problem :)
[08:42] <storkme> ArrenLex, i used to use a 10gb hd for my OS but i just removed it.. so presumably i need to reformat the larger hd and include a partition table so it can be a valid filesystem?
[08:42] <assasukasse> storkme thanks anyway
[08:42] <J4kch> ompaul: Hey paul =)
[08:42] <ArrenLex> storkme: Oh. I would guess yes, then.
[08:42] <storkme> ompaul, hm, ok, sorry.
[08:42] <ompaul> J4kch, glad to see that worked
[08:42] <storkme> ArrenLex, do you know if it's possible to do that without formatting the hard drive?
[08:42] <ompaul> storkme, no worries
[08:42] <J4kch> ompaul: so am I
[08:42] <aleka> slart, this is to verify an edgy install iso actually..and the instructions on the wiki(burningiso HowTo) says it is outdated ( used a firefox extension to verify)
[08:43] <green_earz> aleka: dose the have md5sum file with it ? if so use md5sum to check the .iso against the md5sum file
[08:43] <ArrenLex> storkme: how do you mean "without formatting the hard drive"? Do you mean there's information on it you want to keep, despite there being no partition table?
[08:44] <Slart> aleka: doesn't the install CD have a "verify this cd" option when you boot from it? I might be thinking of debian though
[08:44] <ernz> !beryl
[08:44] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-xgl
[08:44] <aleka> green_earz, I can not see an md5 file to download from the ubuntu site
[08:44] <storkme> yeah ArrenLex
[08:44] <gnomefreak> Slart: check intergrity
[08:45] <storkme> i have no idea how that happened lol
[08:45] <gnomefreak> Slart: thats what you are looking for
[08:45] <aleka> slart yes it does.. and I am getting the error Buffer I/O error on device hdc when I try that
[08:45] <Denton_sk> does anyone knows when (or if) it will be possible to run 3D acceleration on ati xpress 200M with opensource driver?
[08:45] <drcode> I am now inside minicom
[08:45] <Slart> aleka: if you know the correct md5 you can just run "md5sum myimage.iso" in a terminal
[08:45] <ArrenLex> storkme: explain to me again how you managed to put information onto a drive with no partition table?
[08:45] <green_earz> aleka: as Slart said :  doesn't the install CD have a "verify this cd" option when you boot from it?
[08:45] <storkme> ArrenLex, no idea, ArrenLex.. i just used mkfs.ext3 on it when i bought it
[08:45] <drcode> is it recommanded to use mgetty or pon?
[08:45] <Slart> aleka: oh.. then you might have a disk error or something..
[08:45] <ArrenLex> storkme: That would make a partition table.
[08:46] <aleka> green_earz,  look at my response for slart please
[08:46] <storkme> ArrenLex, how come fdisk doesn't think i have one
[08:46] <drcode> for some reson pon say exept connect and it dosn't work
[08:46] <drcode> only minicom work
[08:46] <aleka> I am burning it on a different CD now just incase something went wrong while burning the other one
[08:46] <ArrenLex> storkme: I have no idea.
[08:46] <drcode> or recommanded to use mgetty with ppp?
[08:46] <J4kch> green_earz: how do I start bit tornado?
[08:46] <Paavo> Of course it is possible to make a filesystem on a drive with no partition table. Just write to the whole device.
[08:47] <Donald1> hello, how do I enable the "rendering" to play games correctly?
[08:47] <Slart> aleka: if you're getting read errors on the iso I dont think burning again will help.. perhaps download again to a different location and then burn from the new file will help
[08:47] <Rambo3> that doesnt make sence
[08:47] <ArrenLex> storkme: OHH, pavoo has a good point. Can you please pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l?
[08:48] <Donald1> hello, how do I enable the "rendering" to play games correctly?
[08:48] <strabes> Donald1: direct rendering?
[08:48] <lumpki> drcode, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[08:48] <Slart> Donald1: what video card do you have?
[08:48] <strabes> Donald1: you have to install your video card drivers?
[08:48] <ServerCrash> i might sound crazy, but can anyone tell me what difference does distro make, like why fedora or why ubuntu or for that matter suse when almost all of them are same linux
[08:48] <Donald1> strabes: i have installed the drivers
[08:48] <green_earz> J4kch: sudo apt-get install bittornado-gui   then :  /usr/bin/btdownloadgui
[08:48] <storkme> ArrenLex, Paavo, one second
[08:48] <J4kch> ServerCrash: You sond crazy
[08:48] <ServerCrash> you get almost all the same stuff
[08:48] <Donald1> Slart: i have an ATI x300
[08:48] <aleka> Slart, hmm..2 cds wasted.. but do you know of any Ubuntu download mirror that also has an md5 with it?
[08:48] <ernz> Is anyone able to help me getting beryl to work? I used the walkthrough and its all gone tits up. Now the title bars from all my windows are missing and beryl isn't actually working still.
[08:48] <strabes> Donald1: what kind of card do you have?
[08:48] <ServerCrash> J4kch,  i said i might sound crazy
[08:48] <J4kch> green_earz: oh, thanks
[08:49] <ArrenLex> ServerCrash: package management system, package availability, user community, goals and objectives.
[08:49] <Donald1> strabes: ATI X300
[08:49] <green_earz> np
[08:49] <Slart> Donald1: there are some ATI drivers you can download using synaptec... have you done that?
[08:49] <lumpki> ServerCrash, yup. distro is mostly just a personal preference
[08:49] <strabes> Donald1: h/o
[08:49] <strabes> ernz: wiki.beryl-project.org
[08:49] <Donald1> Slart: i have downloaded the drivers with the synaptics
[08:49] <Slart> aleka: nope.. check the ubuntu main site for mirrors
[08:49] <ernz> strabes: I did the walkthrough from there, and it doesn't work at all
[08:49] <ArrenLex> Donald1: I have that.  You're going to have a lot of trouble.
[08:49] <Subhuman> ServerCrash, the only thing in common is linux - which is just the kernel - you can comapre the kernel to the engine in a car - 10 cars might have the same engine - but they can be totally different cars
[08:50] <Donald1> ArrenLex: mmm, that's reassuring...
[08:50] <LIBe> too hard find wireless network...
[08:50] <strabes> Donald1: did you install fglrx? your card isn't supported by the open source driver
[08:50] <ArrenLex> Donald1: Innit? :)
[08:50] <ServerCrash> i have been using redhat/ fedora from long time but had heard a lot about ubuntu so wondering should i switch and if yes than what differece would i get in ubuntu
[08:50] <ArrenLex> strabes: Yes it is.
[08:50] <Slart> Donald1: ok.. I'm not up to date on ATI drivers.. but check the forums.. there should be plenty of threads about installing ati drivers and enabling hardware rendering and such
[08:50] <nothlit> ServerCrash, things like proprietary stuff, ease of use,hardware support, plug and play , as well
[08:50] <Donald1> Slart: ok, i'll go take a peak
[08:50] <J4kch> ServerCrash: Ubuntu is more user-friendly imho
[08:50] <storkme> ArrenLex, Paavo, http://rafb.net/paste/results/5ufBwt35.html
[08:50] <Slart> I'm there trying to get my nvidia card working =)
[08:50] <ArrenLex> Donald1: Go into /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change your video card driver to "radeon". Then try your game.
[08:50] <ServerCrash> Subhuman, Open office is same so is xine or firefox ...on all the flav of linux
[08:51] <strabes> ArrenLex: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto - X300 isn't supported by the open source ati driver
[08:51] <Subhuman> ServerCrash, okay - for example the way you install all of them is different
[08:51] <nothlit> ServerCrash, Subhuman, the kernel can be compiled with as many or as few options as you'd like so there exists a difference there as well
[08:51] <g0tw00d> can someone tell my Ubuntu locks my USB mouse up ever 15 minutes or so....I have to unplug it then replug it back in.....
[08:51] <Donald1> ArrenLex: it doesnt find the command :s
[08:51] <Subhuman> in ubuntu - since it uses apt - its VERY easy to install a big package like OO - in fedora or anything RPM based - its more difficult as you have to find the other programs OO needs yourself.
[08:51] <storkme> g0tw00d, anything useful from dmesg?
[08:51] <strabes> Donald1: I would recommend that you use fglrx for your specific card
[08:51] <ServerCrash> Subhuman, so is yum in fedora
[08:52] <nothlit> Subhuman, no they have yum synaptic and apt-get
[08:52] <Subhuman> yum is nowhere as near as good as apt though.
[08:52] <g0tw00d> im new to ubuntu....i have no idea what you said :)
[08:52] <strabes> Donald1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[08:52] <aleka> Slart, thanks.. i got it here http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/ubuntu-releases/edgy/MD5SUMS>> and the MD5 matches with what I am getting on the iso I downloaded... don know what went wrong
[08:52] <nothlit> apt-get/synaptic exists from rpm based systems
[08:52] <Donald1> strabes: how do i use fglrx? and, moreover, what is it? :)
[08:52] <Subhuman> g0tw00d, type "dmesg" in a console
[08:52] <Subhuman> nothlit, exactly
[08:52] <Subhuman> their copying the best system :D
[08:52] <g0tw00d> ok hold on sec... :)
[08:52] <Subhuman> but thats the beauty of linux
[08:52] <Subhuman> go install suse
[08:52] <Subhuman> and ubuntuy
[08:52] <Subhuman> check them out
[08:52] <strabes> Donald1: it's the closed-source ati driver. it's the only linux ati driver that supports your card
[08:52] <Subhuman> youll get a feel for what you like.
[08:52] <strabes> Donald1: go to the link that I pasted above
[08:53] <Donald1> strabes: yes
[08:53] <g0tw00d> ok
[08:53] <storkme> any ideas ArrenLex Paavo ?
[08:53] <Subhuman> ive tried tons of distros before i settled on ubuntu ServerCrash - in fact i used suse for months before i found debian.
[08:53] <SARA> Can someone tell me how to upgrade my firefox when using my terminal
[08:53] <Slart> aleka: internet goblins..  I blame all strange things on them =)
[08:53] <nothlit> SARA sudo aptitude install firefox
[08:54] <strabes> SARA: firefox 2.0 comes with edgy

[08:54] <ServerCrash> Subhuman, i am fedora 5 now planning to go to 6 or ubuntu...so was seeking some guidance which way to move
[08:54] <lumpki> ServerCrash, maybe try debian or ubuntu for a while and see if you like it.
[08:54] <Paavo> storkme: so you want to convert that drive to a format where it has a valid partition table?
[08:54] <nothlit> Subhuman, its just you were attributing dependency hell to fedora, when there are better package management systems now
[08:54] <ArrenLex> Rprp: grep "hello" *
[08:54] <SARA> thank you!
[08:55] <Paavo> storkme: what are you planning to do with the drive?
[08:55] <strabes> ArrenLex: you're using radeon not ati for the driver..?
[08:55] <Rprp> doesnt work
[08:55] <Rprp> or it takes ages
[08:55] <nothlit> ServerCrash, theres nothing wrong with sticking with that you know
[08:55] <Slart> is anyone else here using the latest nvidia driver on Ubuntu 6.10? if so, can you use the preferences, scree resolution application or does it report the wrong refresh rates in the drop down box?
[08:55] <ArrenLex> strabes: that's right, because the ati driver doesn't support 3D acceleration at all, for any card. The radeon driver does.
[08:55] <Subhuman> nothlit, im not saying its hell - im jus saying apt is better.
[08:55] <strabes> ArrenLex: ok
[08:55] <Subhuman> Slart, the beta? - if so i am.
