[02:29] <hax_> there must be a way to tell ubuntu to boot to console?
[02:29] <neopsyche> and then another cable running into the computer..
[02:29] <peirce141> w3ccv: thanks a bunch for that, it's perfect now
[02:29] <daggerx> <<<got rid of edubuntu ... thx for help on locating what was still in the system
[02:29] <un_operateur> peirce141, and what was?
[02:29] <neopsyche> Linux seems to say it gets packets
[02:29] <hax_> (with the live cd, that is)
[02:29] <jackson3246> tonyyarusso: I haven't. I'm not sure how, to be honest
[02:30] <neopsyche> But thats from the Network..
[02:30] <n2diy_> daggerx: , and that is the lowest number here I've seen, since I started playing here.
[02:30] <neopsyche> now how do i login to my account on the network?
[02:30] <peirce141> un_operateur: he added -J ACCEPT to the command you told me to use
[02:30] <w3ccv> un_operateur, need a -j ACCEPT to the iptables line
[02:30] <neopsyche> to access the internet using ubuntu?
[02:30] <un_operateur> peirce141, w3ccv ahh yea -- duhh me :)
[02:30] <neopsyche> ?
[02:30] <n2diy_> neopsyche: I'm missing your questions, because you aren't addressing them to me.
[02:30] <neopsyche> oh
[02:30] <un_operateur> peirce141, but can you connect tho?
[02:30] <daggerx> i seen it at 380 or so at like 3am lol
[02:31] <berbear_> how can i get hdd vibration protection on my laptop to work?
[02:31] <peirce141> un_operateur: yep, i just tried
[02:31] <daggerx> not sure berbear, but if you find out, let me know
[02:31] <w3ccv> peirce141, now you need to find the rule file loaded at boot  - and do a iptables-save (that file name)
[02:31] <juano> un_operateur: any ideas bout this hotmail issue?
[02:31] <tonyyarusso> jackson3246: System > Admin > Users is your easiest bet.  Under the advanced tab of properties
[02:31] <n2diy_> neopsyche: type n2, and then hit tab, that should complete my user name for you.
[02:31] <peirce141> w3ccv: how would i go about finding the rule file?
[02:31] <neopsyche> n2diy
[02:31] <un_operateur> ifwr,  maybe this -- echo "$@" | sed,s,:,\ -,g | tr -d \ /\* | tr -d \'\"\?\[:cntrl:\]
[02:31] <patrik> which ncurses package should I install in edgy server? get a load of them with apt-cacher search ncurses
[02:31] <neopsyche> n2diy how can i get ppp connection working
[02:31] <w3ccv> How do I get rid of directory colors???
[02:32] <berbear_> lol
[02:32] <patrik> need it to run make menuconfig
[02:32] <ifwr> cool, Ill give it a shot
[02:32] <neopsyche> n2diy using wlan isp..
[02:32] <un_operateur> juano, I already said -- all hosts on the microsoft network are non-pingable -- they do that to stop hackers and kiddies DoSing them
[02:32] <neopsyche> n2diy on xp i just create new connection
[02:32] <neopsyche> in my_connections
[02:32] <ragnar_123> I am going to run a server here at home, (just for testing/learning php and sql). Should I download the 6.06, or 6.10 server image?
[02:32] <n2diy_> neopsyche:  I've only setup dialup ppp, I don't have any experience with wlan.
[02:32] <daggerx> now if i can find an Xgl guru... ill be set
[02:32] <juano> un_operateur:  im not talking bout ping
[02:32] <patrik> ragnar_123: go for 6.10
[02:32] <neopsyche> hmmm
[02:33] <mads-> doing "sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop,user wc3.iso /media/wc3/" gives me an error: "mount: Not a directory".. What to do? :S
[02:33] <un_operateur> peirce141, rule file??
[02:33] <neopsyche> apparently ubuntu isnt cool with pppoe connections
[02:33] <neopsyche> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-138.html
[02:33] <juano> un_operateur:  im saying that i have a ubuntu server with a xp machine in eth1 (internal) and internet in eth0
[02:33] <ragnar_123> patrik: thanks..
[02:33] <juano> the xp machine can enter everywhere
[02:33] <un_operateur> mads- did you create the directory?
[02:33] <juano> EXCEPT hotmail
[02:33] <peirce141> un_operateur: peirce141, now you need to find the rule file loaded at boot  -  and do a iptables-save (that file name)
[02:33] <mads-> un_operateur, yeah
[02:33] <neopsyche> anyone have any ideas how to setup ppp connection?
[02:33] <peirce141> un_operateur: that's what w3ccv told me to do
[02:33] <daggerx> any XGL guru's here?
[02:33] <w3ccv> peirce141, I'm trying to find it on my system
[02:33] <daggerx> (for the compiz desktop)
[02:33] <n2diy_> neopsyche: take a look at system-admin-networking, that is where dialup is configured, and there is a network configure there too.
[02:34] <tonyyarusso> daggerx: #ubuntu-xgl might be a better bet
[02:34] <jackson3246> tonyyarusso: hm... yeah. I just checked the /etc/passwd on both installations and the entries for the corresponding users are identical
[02:34] <peirce141> w3ccv: alright, thanks
[02:34] <neopsyche> basically .. its like.. i need to access an account on a LAN
[02:34] <CorpseFeeder> I installed Edgy from the alternate CD in text mode. When it boots up I end up in a flashing stripy screen of garbage. what do I do?
[02:34] <neopsyche> WLAN
[02:34] <daggerx> ok ty
[02:34] <neopsyche> ok
[02:34] <tonyyarusso> jackson3246: Does it say anything other than "there is an error"?  Anything useful in log files?
[02:34] <VerdRousseau> anyone have a netgear ma521
[02:34] <DarthLappy> CorpseFeeder, Have you tried switching to a VT after it has booted?
[02:34] <neopsyche> n2diy OK.. talk me through it.. i will need to go into the other room though..
[02:34] <patrik> CorpseFeeder: did you install in in a virtual environment?
[02:35] <jackson3246> tonyyarusso: no for the first question, and I wouldn't know which log files to check to answer the second
[02:35] <Robo> Hey, is anyone in here?
[02:35] <patrik> Robo: no
[02:35] <un_operateur> peirce141, what i find really odd is that you dont have a /etc/init.d/iptables script
[02:35] <tonyyarusso> jackson3246: I usually just pop into /var/log/ and look at anything that looks interesting.  Particularly syslog and the kernel one.
[02:35] <w3ccv> peirce141, I have it loaded at wlan startup time -  with iptables-restore /home/root/itables.rules
[02:36] <Robo> I can't get wireless for the life of me ;_;
[02:36] <n2diy_> Robo, nope.
[02:36] <jeeves_Moss> all?  can anyone help me with GPSD and Kismet?
[02:36] <Robo> aw damn, i was hoping someone would be here
[02:36] <madman91> mads-: i think you have to pass -o for every option
[02:36] <Robo> oh well.
[02:36] <un_operateur> peirce141, do this -- ls -l /etc/rc?.d/*ip*
[02:36] <neopsyche> ok
[02:36] <madman91> mads-: -o loop -o user
[02:36] <jackson3246> tonyyarusso: oh. haha good plan. I'll check that out, yeah
[02:36] <neopsyche> n2diy ok it says 2 devices not configured
[02:36] <neopsyche> PPP0 and the Ethernet card
[02:36] <segin> madman91: -o rw,remount 2 options "rw" and "remount"
[02:36] <peirce141> un_operateur: a few lines for /init.d/hplip
[02:36] <peirce141> un_operateur: nothing else
[02:37] <Robo> anyway, i guess i'll throw my question out there: i'm trying to get a WUSB54Gv2 to work and it's...not
[02:37] <mads-> madman91, still gives me the same error =/
[02:37] <Robo> i'm using the linksys drivers and they're loading properly in ndiswrapper but it's not finding the hardware
[02:37] <madman91> segin: ?
[02:37] <berbear_> how can i get windows drivers to work in linux? ndiswrapper?
[02:37] <madman91> mads-: weird
[02:37] <mads-> very
[02:37] <Robo> berbear_, that should work
[02:37] <mads-> Everythings seem right
[02:37] <un_operateur> peirce141, try this -- grep -inH iptables /etc/init.d/*
[02:38] <n2diy_> neopsyche: put some punctuation after n2diy, so the message is highlighted for me. Can you configure them? What are they?
[02:38] <berbear_> robo: does it work for drivers other than wireless?
[02:38] <peirce141> un_operateur: nothing
[02:38] <Robo> hmm, dunno
[02:38] <n2diy_> I did?
[02:38] <Robo> i probably know about as much as you :x
[02:38] <juano> i need help with my xp machine from LAN, cant go in hotmail.com or msn.com but everywhere else seems ok
[02:38] <Robo> check the ndiswrapper website
[02:38] <jackson3246> tonyyarusso: nothin good in the logs
[02:38] <segin> berbear_: No.
[02:38] <berbear_> :( ok thnx
[02:38] <segin> berbear_: What kind of driver?
[02:39] <tonyyarusso> jackson3246: Darn.  Anything odd about this partition setup?  When did this start?
[02:39] <emo> I can't upgrade my system any help please..?
[02:39] <Robo> juano: it's probably because hotmail/msn's servers are about as stable as a bipolar schizophrenic
[02:39] <berbear_> for hdd vibration protection and webcam
[02:39] <CorpseFeeder> DarthLappy: I do not know what a VT is
[02:39] <neopsyche> n2diy_:  ok so i have an option to activate ethernet
[02:39] <malikeye> back
[02:39] <berbear_> sergin: for hdd vibration protection and webcam
[02:39] <juano> Robo:  LOL
[02:39] <malikeye> peirce141: you get it working ?
[02:39] <peirce141> w3ccv: is there an easy way to find where my iptables rules are? I dont have any similar file on my system
[02:39] <jeeves_Moss> un_operateur: do you know anything about Kismet and GPSD?
[02:39] <neopsyche> hmm
[02:39] <n2diy_> ubotu, _
[02:39] <peirce141> malikeye: yep, now im working on saving the rules
[02:39] <n2diy_> neopsyche: go for it.
[02:39] <CorpseFeeder> patrik: I don't think so.
[02:39] <tonyyarusso> juano: Um, why asking about XP here?
[02:39] <malikeye> peirce141: /sbin/iptables save
[02:39] <segin> berbear_: Get a Linux-compatable webcam
[02:39] <DarthLappy> CorpseFeeder, Oh, the virtual terminal. Ctrl-Alt-F1, etc.
[02:39] <neopsyche> er.. will have to disconnect from here then lol
[02:39] <un_operateur> jeeves_Moss, nope sorry :(
[02:40] <jackson3246> tonyyarusso: it started just when I installed in an hour ago. I've got edgy on /dev/sda1, the home on /dev/sda2, windows on /dev/sdb1, and this one (dapper) on /dev/sdb2
[02:40] <neopsyche> to plugin ethernet.
[02:40] <n2diy_> ubotu, user name
[02:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about user name - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:40] <n2diy_> ubotu, user
[02:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about user - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:40] <juano> its not bout XP, i am in ubuntu, i have eth0 -> INTERNET / eth1 -> XP MACHINE
[02:40] <emo> my system show my up that I got 4 updates available however I can't install it
[02:40] <Nontitle> ubotu, name
[02:40] <n2diy_> ubotu, name
[02:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about name - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:40] <berbear_> segin: its built into my laptop "(
[02:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about name - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:40] <CorpseFeeder> I have not tried going to the virtual terminal.
[02:40] <jeeves_Moss> un_operateur:  any luck on helping me find some help?
[02:40] <jackson3246> tonyyarusso: this one was the one I just installed because the dist-upgrades from breezy --> dapper --> edgy kind of messed up my system
[02:40] <neopsyche> but what then.. when the ethernet is enabled.. i need to setup another connection to login to my account and access the internet over the pppoe connection using ppp
[02:40] <tonyyarusso> jackson3246: maybe it's getting weirded out b/c they're different disks, not just partitions?
[02:40] <juano> from XP MACHINE i can go anywhere google, etc. etc. EXCEPT hotmail and msn
[02:40] <n2diy_> ok, how do I lose the underscore after my name?
[02:40] <Robo> juano, trust me
[02:40] <Robo> hotmail's servers are ALWAYS down
[02:40] <malikeye> n2diy_: /nick n2dit
[02:40] <DarthLappy> CorpseFeeder, You might be able to try and configure X from there.
[02:40] <malikeye> diy
[02:40] <un_operateur> peirce141, i'm getting soft in the brain -- all you need to do is -- sudo iptables-save
[02:41] <neopsyche> n2diy_:  see above message
[02:41] <w3ccv> peirce141, neither do I but the ones I put there.  so  do 'sudo iptabes-save /etc/iptables.up.rules'
[02:41] <peirce141> un_operateur: alright, thanks
[02:41] <juano> yeah but from ubuntu i can !
[02:41] <jackson3246> tonyyarusso: yeah. it's probably something like that. I think I'm gonna give it a topic on the message boards
[02:41] <jeeves_Moss> frogzoo:  are you in here?
[02:41] <tonyyarusso> juano: Yeah, I'd blam the sites rather than your setup
[02:41] <n2diy> test
[02:41] <patrik> CorpseFeeder: Ok, I installed ubuntu in Virtual PC 2005 and got the same prob you are mentioning.
[02:41] <Robo> juano, different browser maybe?
[02:41] <neopsyche> test?
[02:41] <n2diy> malikeye, tnx
[02:41] <peirce141> thanks a lot guys!
[02:41] <tonyyarusso> n2diy: /nick yournewnicksansunderscore
[02:41] <CorpseFeeder> I have the nvidia driver run file on a USB stick. I tried to reconfigure x with the nv driver and it does not work.
[02:41] <juano> firefox both
[02:41] <Robo> are you using firefox on both?
[02:41] <tonyyarusso> doh, he got it
[02:41] <juano> yes
[02:41] <Robo> hm
[02:41] <ifwr> n2diy, that gave me an error
[02:41] <w3ccv> peirce141, and when you wanto to invoke the rules when you reboot  'sudo iptables-restore /etc/iptables.up.rules'
[02:41] <malikeye> you shouldn't need to specify a place to store the rules
[02:41] <tonyyarusso> jackson3246: good plan
[02:41] <juano> maybe any iptables rule?
[02:41] <neopsyche> ok.. well.. im going to try setup on ubuntu..
[02:41] <juano> i tried iptables -F
[02:41] <neopsyche> cheerz ppl
[02:41] <n2diy> ifwr, what gave you an error?
[02:41] <CorpseFeeder> how do I mount the usb stick and get the nvidia driver file off it to run it?
[02:42] <neopsyche> exit
[02:42] <jeeves_Moss> w3ccv:  are you any good with GPSD and Kismet?
[02:42] <ifwr> the regular expression
[02:42] <jackson3246> tonyyarusso: thanks for the help. I'll be off now
[02:42] <w3ccv> malikeye, if you don[t then how do you find them again?
[02:42] <n2diy> CorpseFeeder: it should automount, and bring up Nautilus.
[02:42] <un_operateur> w3ccv, you shouldnt need to do that -- iptables is a kernel module and reads from some config file -- iptables-save should suffice
[02:42] <malikeye> w3ccv: there is a default location, no ?
[02:42] <w3ccv> jeeves_Moss, never heard of them (well hardly ever)
[02:42] <CorpseFeeder> I can't get into nautilus
[02:42] <CorpseFeeder> i have no graphics
[02:43] <juano> Robo: any ideas??
[02:43] <CorpseFeeder> the graphics dirver is on the usb drive
[02:43] <n2diy> CorpseFeeder: ok, try mount /media/usb
[02:43] <jeeves_Moss> w3ccv: ok, thanks.  I'm still trying to find some help
[02:43] <aliendream23> I( have a drive (hdd1) that the system sais is mounted to /media/hdd1, but I cannot access this drive...help?
[02:43] <malikeye> aliendream23: does 'mount' show it as mounted ?
[02:44] <tim167> how do i install GOOGLE EARTH on UBUNTU ? thanks!
[02:44] <w3ccv> malikeye, no - without a file name it wants the input from the stdin/stdout
[02:44] <jeeves_Moss> n2diy:  do you know anything about GPSD or Kismet?
[02:44] <burner> !google earth | tim167
[02:44] <ubotu> tim167: Google Earth is now available, for free (only as in price), for Linux, too. To download it see http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html
[02:44] <malikeye> w3ccv: not in my experience
[02:44] <segin> tim167: Did you Google?
[02:44] <aliendream23> malikeye: "/dev/hdd1 on /media/hdd1 type vfat (rw)"
[02:44] <n2diy> jeeves_Moss: no not really, APRS yes.
[02:44] <jeeves_Moss> !tell jeeves_moss kismet
[02:44] <w3ccv> malikeye, I just tried it on Edgy!!
[02:44] <tim167> yes i downloaded it, its a BIN file but i can do nothing with it
[02:45] <malikeye> aliendream23: what does ls -la /media/hdd1 say ?
[02:45] <jeeves_Moss> n2diy: APRS?  what's that?
[02:45] <w3ccv> malikeye, and the same on FC4  - these are current versions of iptables
[02:45] <burner> tim167, double-click it?
[02:45] <segin> tim167: Linux doesn't use magic .exe installers, sorry. It's meant to be used at a root shell.
[02:45] <tim167> its called GoogleEarthLinux.bin
[02:45] <malikeye> w3ccv: that's funny, I just did without specifying a target and it worked fine
[02:45] <n2diy> jeeves_Moss: Amateur Position Reporting System, it uses gps.
[02:45] <burner> tim167, then "run"
[02:45] <aliendream23> "total 20
[02:45] <aliendream23> drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 16384 1969-12-31 19:00 .

[02:45] <un_operateur> !google-earth | tim167
[02:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about google-earth - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:46] <un_operateur> !google earth | tim167
[02:46] <ubotu> tim167: Google Earth is now available, for free (only as in price), for Linux, too. To download it see http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html
[02:46] <malikeye> aliendream23: who are you trying to access it as ? a regular user ?
[02:46] <w3ccv> malikeye, are you using a script in /etc/init.d
[02:46] <burner> un_operateur, you're late to the party, i already pushed that once :P
[02:46] <aliendream23> yes
[02:46] <timo901> !beryl-trunk
[02:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about beryl-trunk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:46] <jeeves_Moss> n2diy:  I wonder if it's any better than GPSD.
[02:46] <malikeye> w3ccv: nope... iptables-save
[02:46] <otaku-san> ok I'm on kubuntu....and I'm trying to manually install firefox 2 on dapper drake...but I need the /opt...what is this directory and how do I get it
[02:46] <un_operateur> burner, gotta get me better tortoise-shoes :>
[02:46] <burner> otaku-san, if you don't have one... "sudo mkdir /opt" :)
[02:46] <w3ccv> malikeye, and it doesn't go the terminal window?  hmmm
[02:46] <segin> tim167: The installer is not GUI. Also, Linux has an execute premission to determine if the file can be ran.
[02:47] <malikeye> w3ccv: terminal window ? this is in a terminal
[02:47] <n2diy> jeeves_Moss: I'm not familiar with GPSD, so I can't say. Google on APRS, and Xastir, for more info.
[02:47] <otaku-san> burner: cool beans....thanks alot
[02:47] <tim167> un_operateur, burner:  run GoogleEarthLinux.bin  bash: run: command not found
[02:47] <w3ccv> malikeye, does it go to your screen?
[02:47] <jeeves_Moss> n2diy:  it's cool, I just did. thanks for your help
[02:47] <malikeye> I hit enter and I immediately get a prompt back
[02:47] <burner> tim167, u could open a term and type "chmod +x ~/Desktop/GoogleEarthLinux.bin && ~/Desktop/GoogleEarthLinux.bin"
[02:47] <un_operateur> tim167, chmod a+x GoogleEarthLinux.bin; sudo ./GoogleEarthLinux.bin
[02:47] <CorpseFeeder> I can't get the usb drive to work. I will brun a CD instead
[02:47] <w3ccv> malikeye, wonder where it goes?
[02:47] <n2diy> jeeves_Moss: Nada, are you a ham?
[02:47] <malikeye> w3ccv: this is how it's worked for me forever... not sure what you are talkin abuot :)
[02:48] <burner> aww, i forgot sudo ;)
[02:48] <Robo> i'm trying to get a WUSB54Gv2 to work on my desktop and ndiswrapper isn't detecting it
[02:48] <Robo> i'm using the right drivers but nothing's happening...
[02:48] <jeeves_Moss> n2diy:  nope.  I'm an electronics tech.  I never got into Ham that much
[02:48] <Robo> it just says "driver loaded", but nothing about the hardware
[02:48] <un_operateur> w3ccv, iptables is not a init.d script eh -- its a kernel module -- named iptable_filter
[02:48] <aliendream23> malikeye: yes, I am trying to use this drive as a regular user
[02:48] <n2diy> jeeves_Moss: roger that, I'm a tech too.
[02:48] <tim167> un_operateur: that seems to be working...thanks
[02:49] <malikeye> aliendream23: that ls from up there, that as a normal user or as root ? what is the problem again ?
[02:49] <w3ccv> malikeye, the way it works here on both FC4, RH9 and Edgy.  And by the man pages.
[02:49] <un_operateur> tim167, yw
[02:49] <malikeye> w3ccv: dunno what to tell you :)
[02:49] <aliendream23> that was root, the problem is that I cannot access that drive
[02:49] <aliendream23> ...as a regular user
[02:49] <malikeye> aliendream23: so when you do that ls as a regular user ?
[02:49] <w3ccv> un_operateur, there is an exectuable that loads, lists, and saves the kernel modules
[02:50] <w3ccv> malikeye, we have two different versions.
[02:50] <aliendream23> total 20
[02:50] <aliendream23> drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 16384 1969-12-31 19:00 .

[02:50] <jeeves_Moss> n2diy:  did you see the latest Elektor msg from the UK?  it's got a good 30 and 80 meter DSS tuned radio
[02:51] <segin> tim167: I suggest you google on Unix file premissions
[02:51] <malikeye> aliendream23: don't paste to the channel, use pastebin if you need to paste
[02:51] <malikeye> !pastebin
[02:51] <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)
[02:51] <n2diy> jeeves_Moss: no I haven't, ya got a link?
[02:51] <aliendream23> ok
[02:51] <segin> tim167: also google on BASH SHELL
[02:51] <un_operateur> w3ccv, the netfilter_iptable kernel module loads the rules, /sbin/iptables -L lists them and /sbin/iptables-save saves them
[02:51] <malikeye> w3ccv: <IP_ADDRESS>debian1-1ubuntu2
[02:51] <malikeye> aliendream23: that was as a regular user ?
[02:51] <aliendream23> yes
[02:51] <n2diy> malikeye, lubuntu, what is that?
[02:51] <malikeye> so you have access then
[02:51] <malikeye> n2diy: that is a number 1
[02:52] <n2diy> malikeye, roger that.
[02:52] <aliendream23> ok...but I cannot browse it with naut.?
[02:52] <jeeves_Moss> n2diy: http://www.elektor-electronics.co.uk/
[02:52] <malikeye> aliendream23: 'touch /<mountpoint>/test'
[02:52] <Rosie> I have a question.
[02:52] <malikeye> oh wait
[02:52] <malikeye> you don't have write... nevermind
[02:52] <w3ccv> un_operateur, yes, as I said.  they are in /sbin
[02:52] <n2diy> jeeves_Moss: roger that, I'm going there now.
[02:53] <tim167> segin: i will...after i'm done wondering around in Alaska :p
[02:53] <jeeves_Moss> n2diy:  it's a good mag that's not simplistic.
[02:53] <malikeye> aliendream23: what is your goal, I think you need to device what you want to do, before I can give security advice
[02:53] <un_operateur> w3ccv, but not in /etc/init.d tho -- which explains why peirce141 couldnt find any iptables files there
[02:53] <malikeye> s/device/decide/
[02:53] <malikeye> aliendream23: just a storage aread for your user ?
[02:54] <Robo> Is anybody able to help me with my problem, or are you all busy? D :
[02:54] <aliendream23> ok, I want to be able to read and write to the drive as a regular user, and have it appear in my naut.
[02:54] <ecto1> quit
[02:54] <w3ccv> un_operateur, how do I get rid of the dammed colors in a 'ls' black and whit is lats easier to read
[02:54] <malikeye> ok, so then you want to chown username.groupname /<mountpoint>
[02:54] <malikeye> do you know what that means ?
[02:54] <n2diy> jeeves_Moss: Interesting.
[02:54] <aliendream23> yeah
[02:55] <w3ccv> !ls colors
[02:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ls colors - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:55] <tonyyarusso> Rosie: Just ask.  If someone knows, they'll help.  If not, try again later, and also on the mailing list and forums.
[02:55] <malikeye> aliendream23: k, so you so the user.group should be the $username ( IE : the same )
[02:55] <w3ccv> !dirlors
[02:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dirlors - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:55] <un_operateur> w3ccv, you probably have an alias for ls that turns on colours
[02:55] <aliendream23> malikeye: operation not permitted
[02:56] <malikeye> aliendream23: gotta sudo it
[02:56] <aliendream23> i did
[02:56] <un_operateur> w3ccv, try -- alias ls='/bin/ls'
[02:57] <PORDO> what's this about? ekiga: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libopal.so.2.2: undefined symbol: speex_echo_state_init
[02:57] <n2diy> un_operateur: shouldn't you have w3ccv look in his .bashrc file for colors?
[02:57] <malikeye> w3ccv: you need to nullify this in your .bashrc : alias ls='ls --color=auto'
[02:57] <aliendream23> I am using a root terminal, and it still won't let me do it
[02:57] <malikeye> aliendream23: sudo chown user.group /mountpoint
[02:58] <n2diy> malikeye, never mind. :)
[02:58] <un_operateur> n2diy, just testing that it was indeed an alias doing that
[02:58] <petafile> Network manager isn't showing my wireless connection, but its up and running.  wireless is eth1, and its setup w/ admin>network config or whatever
[02:58] <petafile> why isn't it showing up in network manager?
[02:58] <Rustle> Woo, ubuntu freezes on "loading linux kernel" on the installation, I ran memtest86 and it's at 68% and it's all errors
[02:58] <Rustle> :(
[02:59] <malikeye> Rustle: ugh... bad modules ?
[02:59] <malikeye> sounds like it
[02:59] <Rustle> hmm
[03:00] <Rustle> Well something is bad, any hint towards a solution malikeye?
[03:00] <timo901> were can i find latest stable ati drivers
[03:00] <w3ccv> un_operateur, thanks  now I can read my ls on the laptop
[03:00] <avis> Merry Christmas ubuntu developers
[03:00] <timo901> its all or nothing now
[03:00] <petafile> no network manager ideas?
[03:01] <n2diy> Rustle, malikeye can't he run memtest from the boot prompt of the install cd?
[03:01] <Rustle> Yea, that's where I'm running it now
[03:01] <aliendream23> malikeye, it still won't permit it
[03:01] <un_operateur> w3ccv, it looks like you are indeed right about saving the content of iptables-save to a script in /etc/init.d --- i wonder how peirce141's tables get launched at startup
[03:01] <markoutther1> Anyone know a good program for network discovery?
[03:02] <aliendream23> I am doing "sudo chown alienseer23.alienseer23 /media/hdd1
[03:02] <timo901> i have found fglrx drivers using synaptic package manager is it safe to install them ?
[03:02] <un_operateur> w3ccv, you might want to change the alias in ~/.bash_aliases so it sticks
[03:02] <sephirot1> Hi, i tried installing netbeans. stupid bin won't detect jdk on my box. There doesnt seem to be any configure/path options either.
[03:02] <sephirot1> any help?
[03:03] <Flannel> sephirot1: did you install java from the repositories?
[03:03] <Rustle> Ubuntu it's a necessity though, I could install gentoo or something install; I need a stable OS so I can sort out a load balance with multiple nics
[03:03] <Rustle> sort of an ethernet bond
[03:03] <sephirot1> Flannel: yes.
[03:03] <sephirot1> from the repos.
[03:03] <Rustle> isn't*
[03:03] <Rustle> soz I'm a little stoned my sentence made no sense
[03:03] <Flannel> sephirot1: and "java --version" at a console works?
[03:03] <malikeye> Rustle: test one stick at a time, that my only advice :)
[03:04] <Rustle> ok thanks
[03:04] <w3ccv> un_operateur,   grep intab /etc/init.d/*
[03:04] <w3ccv> un_operateur,   grep intab /etc/init.d/* returned nothing here too
[03:04] <sephirot1> Flannel: i can compile java source. isn't that enough?
[03:04] <sephirot1> but let me check and get back
[03:04] <aliendream23> malikeye: what would prevent that from being permitted?
[03:04] <Rosie> I am just so sick of the ubuntu forums' staff
[03:04] <srothroc> I can't seem to get wireless to work on my laptop, either.
[03:04] <Flannel> sephirot1: yeah, that's good enough
[03:04] <srothroc> Intel Pro 2200BG.
[03:04] <Rosie> They are one of the most anal staffs in existence
[03:04] <malikeye> aliendream23: I dunno... thinking
[03:04] <Rustle> Would there be a linux bootable memory repair disk anywhere? or something of the sort
[03:04] <Rosie> At least, the few mods that ban on the sight of anything
[03:05] <Flannel> sephirot1: netbeans must be using a set location, instead of using the PATH.
[03:05] <avis> where do they linger on freenode, ubuntu developers ?
[03:05] <srothroc> Frankly, I don't even know how to find out whether or not I'm even seeing any networks...
[03:05] <un_operateur> w3ccv, grep intab ?  :)
[03:05] <Madpilot> avis, #ubuntu-devel
[03:05] <avis> thank you
[03:06] <juano> i need help with my xp machine from LAN, cant go in hotmail.com or msn.com but everywhere else seems ok
[03:06] <sephirot1> so how do i get it to see the SUN java SE? i've got blackdown java installed as well. but afterwards installed the sun's bin package.
[03:06] <babymausiwolf> hi, is it possible to upgrade to breezy without breezy cd
[03:06] <dibblego> wpa
[03:06] <dibblego> !wpa
[03:06] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:06] <srothroc> Actually, interesting... it seems like I'm running in IPv6?
[03:06] <srothroc> Yeah, I looked there, ubotu.
[03:06] <babymausiwolf> warty
[03:07] <brady> what is the package to install the standard gnome desktop? i installed from a server disk b/c that was all that was available.
[03:07] <Flannel> brady: "ubuntu-desktop"
[03:07] <burner> ubuntu-desktop
[03:07] <Flannel> brady: and, you'll want to change to the -generic kernel as well, away from the -server one
[03:07] <babymausiwolf> is it possible to upgrade to breezy from warty without breezy cd
[03:07] <malikeye> aliendream23: you are sure that that user and that group exist ?
[03:07] <w3ccv> un_operateur, I much prefer xchat to gaim, but doesn't want to install on Edgy  got any ideas  apt-get says it is a broken package
[03:07] <aliendream23> yeah,
[03:08] <Flannel> babymausiwolf: yes.  You need to go warty > hoary > breezy
[03:08] <Flannel> !upgrade | babymausiwolf
[03:08] <ubotu> babymausiwolf: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:08] <aliendream23> it's the only one I put on here
[03:08] <aliendream23> just checked it also to make sure
[03:08] <babymausiwolf> thx
[03:08] <burner> babymausiwolf, short answer, you have to go to hoary, then breezy
[03:08] <malikeye> aliendream23: can you pastebin a ls -la /media ?
[03:09] <malikeye> not that it will tell me anything :)
[03:09] <un_operateur> w3ccv, I think you might want to install xchat2 or x-chat2 (cant remember which)
[03:09] <aliendream23> hang on
[03:09] <malikeye> konversation is nice... but dependent on kde stuff
[03:09] <brady> Flannel, thanks for the help. Does the kernel issue apply to ppc (uname -a would suggest not)?
[03:09] <Flannel> w3ccv: xchat is in universe, xchat-gnome is in main
[03:10] <Flannel> brady: this is what, edgy? dapper?
[03:11] <tigafan09>  Is anyone familiar with the problem with Jmicron?
[03:11] <Flannel> brady: ah, it does appear that -server is only in effect in 386 and amd64.
[03:11] <brady> Flannel, edgy.
[03:11] <aliendream23> malikeye: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38607/
[03:11] <Flannel> brady: so yes, I suppose you needn't worry about your kernel
[03:11] <w3ccv> Flannel, xchat-gnome might load - trying to connect to us.archive now.
[03:12] <tigafan09>  Is there a patch or something to allow ubuntu to work with jmicron?
[03:12] <sephirot1> Flannel: seems i've to use `netbeans_install.bin -is:javahome  path_to_jdk `
[03:12] <timo901> how do i check if my ati driver install was successful
[03:12] <sephirot1> So how do i find the path_to_jdk?
[03:12] <wastrel> "hello"
[03:12] <un_operateur> timo901, run the glxgears program
[03:13] <tigafan09>  can someone please help me?
[03:13] <un_operateur> !anybody | tigafan09
[03:13] <ubotu> tigafan09: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:13] <Flannel> sephirot1: well, 'which java' will give you the path to the compiler.  I don't know if it wants that, or if it wants the path to the libraries.
[03:13] <malikeye> aliendream23: for the hell of it : chmod 777 /media/hdd1 && chown alienseer23.alienseer23 /media/hdd1 && chmod 755 /media/hdd1
[03:13] <timo901> un_operateur:  gears has always worked
[03:13] <sephirot1> Flannel: k- thanks.
[03:14] <malikeye> oh WAIT... what kind of FS is this aliendream23 ?
[03:14] <un_operateur> timo901, the load which it puts on the system should be greatly lessened if the right drivers are installed
[03:14] <tigafan09>  I've installed Ubuntu 6.10 via alternate cd and am having trouble with it because of the whole Jmicron IDE controller conflict... is there a patch or something that I can install?
[03:14] <Flannel> malikeye, aliendream23.  Nooo.  Don't do that.
[03:14] <malikeye> Flannel: why ?
[03:14] <towsonu2003> tigafan09, is this what you mean: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/57502

[03:15] <b0ss_> woops
[03:15] <ragnar_123> well, i am off to sleep, merry x-mas all!
[03:15] <un_operateur> malikeye, why are you having to change permissions like that?
[03:15] <Flannel> malikeye, aliendream23: because that'll screw up his drive forever, and is NOT the 'fix' you want.  He should instead be fixing that issue with mount options (umask, or whatever brethren of it for his FS)
[03:15] <malikeye> un_operateur: cause his fs is stuck :)
[03:15] <aliendream23> same thing
[03:16] <aliendream23> not permitted
[03:16] <malikeye> Flannel: what are you talkin about ?
[03:16] <tigafan09>  towsonu2003: Yes, that's my problem. I'm running on an Asus P5W DH Deluxe Mobo, it had the Jmicron chip
[03:16] <Flannel> malikeye: changing the mount options is the fix he wants.
[03:16] <aliendream23> unmask??
[03:16] <malikeye> huh ?
[03:16] <malikeye> aliendream23: do a mount... is it mount readonly ?
[03:16] <Captain_Redbeard> Bah... what file is thermal information written to?
[03:16] <malikeye> that will most certainly NOT screw up his drive forever
[03:16] <un_operateur> Flannel, screw up the drive forever??
[03:16] <trev__> if i want to use bittorent do i have to configure ip table or use firestarter?
[03:16] <aliendream23> how about this, I will unmount this thing to start from fresh
[03:17] <towsonu2003> tigafan09, according to that, a fix is available in feisty, which isn't released yet. but this still seems a problem without a patch: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/grub/+bug/64574
[03:17] <malikeye> aliendream23: is it mounted readonly ?
[03:17] <Flannel> un_operateur: well, the current permissions, so... all the current data.  For good.  I suppose not the drive itself
[03:17] <skeeto> I attached my IPOD to my USB and nothing popped up on my desktop
[03:17] <malikeye> pastebin the mount output
[03:17] <malikeye> there is no data
[03:17] <malikeye> and it would only affect the directory
[03:17] <malikeye> nothing in it
[03:17] <w3ccv> skeeto, does it show in df
[03:18] <jimmygoon> Can someone help me? - I have a CF->IDE adaptor and when I plug it into my Thinkpad 570 the Bios will not let me set it as bootable
[03:18] <un_operateur> Flannel, it's quite likely to do anything as the permissions are applied on the mount-point itself not what it points to
[03:18] <un_operateur> not*
[03:18] <aliendream23> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38609/
[03:18] <Flannel> malikeye, aliendream23, man mount will explain umask, dmask/fmask/whatever it is for your filesystem.  Scroll down to find the section on the FS type you're mounting
[03:18] <skeeto> w3ccv what is df?
[03:18] <w3ccv> skeeto, not all devices soow on the desktp all the time - dont ' rely on the desktop
[03:18] <skeeto> <--- = noob
[03:18] <malikeye> un_operateur: well to the filesystem, really... it's already mounted so, technically you are changing the filesystem
[03:18] <un_operateur> Flannel, in anycase -- the permissions can always be reset by root
[03:18] <w3ccv> skeeto, a command line utiiityu - shows dosk space on all mounted devices
[03:18] <malikeye> Flannel: umask has nothing to do with this
[03:18] <Flannel> un_operateur: eh, that's true.  I thought I saw a -R in there, which wouldve.
[03:19] <brady> will ubuntu take advantage of xorg splitting all of the video drivers into different pieces?
[03:19] <malikeye> hmm... it's mounted rw, so that's good
[03:19] <skeeto> /dev/sda2 /mnt/ipod vfat user,noauto,umask=000 0 0
[03:19] <skeeto> oops
[03:19] <w3ccv> skeeto, it you iPod is mounte it probably will be /media/ipod
[03:19] <malikeye> aliendream23: touch /media/hdd1/test
[03:19] <un_operateur> malikeye, if you used a -R in the chmod/chown then the contents of the drive would be changed, but you arent doing that so nothing is
[03:19] <malikeye> does it let you write there ?

[03:20] <un_operateur> skeeto, oi
[03:20] <un_operateur> !paste | skeeto
[03:20] <ubotu> skeeto: 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)
[03:20] <skeeto> ok sorry
[03:20] <malikeye> but to change a mounted filesystems mount point is to actually change the FS, not the mountpoint
[03:20] <aliendream23> cannot touch, permission denied
[03:20] <w3ccv> skeeto, nope it's not mounted.
[03:20] <malikeye> there you have it
[03:20] <malikeye> something is wrong with the FS
[03:21] <malikeye> aliendream23: you sudo'd that ?
[03:21] <tigafan09>  towsuno2003: So is there anything i can do?
[03:21] <skeeto> so how do I mount it?
[03:21] <malikeye> aliendream23: does /var/log/messages or dmesg show any disk errors when you try to write to the disk ?
[03:21] <trev_> is there anything specail you have to do in ubuntu to run bitorent?
[03:21] <aliendream23> no error with sudo
[03:21] <malikeye> so sudo works
[03:22] <malikeye> ?
[03:22] <skeeto> trev:  I just went to the torrent and hit download and clicked open
[03:22] <aliendream23> yes
[03:22] <malikeye> k
[03:22] <malikeye> hmm
[03:22] <malikeye> do a chmod 777 /media/hdd1
[03:22] <daviey> Hi, does anybody know of a 3-way videoconferencing (full-screen) software that is compatible with windows?  It also needs to be easily installed, with no firewall forwarding for the windows users.
[03:22] <trev_> ok, i just read in the forum that bittornado is brocken right now so ill switch to azerious
[03:23] <aliendream23> ok
[03:23] <malikeye> oh wait... vfat doesn't honor permissions
[03:24] <malikeye> you need to open it wide, I think
[03:24] <aliendream23> how do I change the mount options?
[03:24] <malikeye> I think.
[03:24] <tigafan09>  towsuno2003: So is there anything i can do to get it to work with Jmicron? or do i have to wait til feisty?

[03:26] <jazzKaz> hi everybody, i have a problem: the /var partition should be mounted before than start the rcS, how i do ? a bootparam ?
[03:26] <malikeye> hmmm
[03:26] <Ashton_K> fstab
[03:26] <inuyasharenegade> what is that norton software for clearing partitions called?
[03:26] <Ashton_K> Go to /etc/fstab I think.
[03:26] <malikeye> this might be a umask thing...
[03:26] <Ppjet6> Anyone using cedega ?
[03:26] <Ashton_K> THat's the file that controls the automounts.
[03:26] <tigafan09>  Is there any known way to get ubuntu to work with Jmicron?
[03:26] <jazzKaz> fstab is S35
[03:26] <malikeye> my apologies Flannel if you were right :)
[03:26] <burner> Ppjet6, no, but i use wine :)
[03:26] <jazzKaz> i need before
[03:26] <aliendream23> how do I unmask?
[03:27] <Ppjet6> burner: i want to play wow, so .. :)
[03:27] <malikeye> aliendream23: check this out : http://edge-op.org/grouch/fatperm.html

[03:27] <malikeye> if you do care, read that page
[03:27] <inuyasharenegade> anyone know how to clear partitions so i dont have gnub error anymore when trying to load new system up
[03:27] <un_operateur> aliendream23, do you have a pastebin of your current fstab, mtab files and the mount command?
[03:27] <burner> wine works for Warcraft 3 and starcraft :)
[03:27] <Ashton_K> join #madwifi
[03:27] <Ashton_K> Oops
[03:28] <tigafan09>  Is there any known way to get ubuntu to work with Jmicron?
[03:28] <Ppjet6> burner: if you explain me i would use wow ^^
[03:28] <Ppjet6> *will
[03:28] <wastrel> what's jmicron
[03:28] <Ppjet6> ** wine :P
[03:29] <burner> Ppjet6, just install from the repositories from winehq.com ... then wine blah.exe
[03:29] <Ashton_K> Wastrel, sounds like a chipset?
[03:29] <Ashton_K> Some sort of CPU architecture?
[03:29] <Ashton_K> (Maybe)
[03:29] <Ppjet6> burner: yes, done, but no results :/
[03:29] <tigafan09>  Jmicron is and IDE Controller on Intel motherboards, I've been burning up google all day and can figure out no way to get it to work with linux
[03:29] <tigafan09>  any ideas?
[03:29] <Ppjet6> burner: just X crash :)
[03:30] <srothroc> How can you make sure Ubuntu is trying to authenticate for wireless networking using a WEP key?
[03:30] <Ashton_K> IDE as in, your HD's don't work without it?
[03:30] <un_operateur> malikeye, were you asking him to umask=777?? :)
[03:30] <Ashton_K> Oh yeah. While I'm here.
[03:30] <cyphase> "To date, there are no reports of actual attacks against Windows users."
[03:31] <Ashton_K> Can anyone tell me whether RAID can be used to backup an individual partition, or must it be across the whole Hard Drive?
[03:31] <Ashton_K> (RAID 1, to be specific)
[03:31] <malikeye> un_operateur: no.. I said to change the permissions to 777 to see if we could change anything about it
[03:31] <trev_> when you guys download videos off google video as .avi can you watch them in fullscreen on your computer?
[03:31] <Ashton_K> Sure.
[03:31] <tigafan09>  The HD works oddly, i'm not sure if that plug is Jmicron or not though, but my ide optical drive doesn't work which i believe is the reason why i can't get into anything under the PLACES menu and my desktop isn't fuctioning at al
[03:31] <jeeves_Moss> all: can someone help me with GPSD?
[03:31] <w3ccv> apt-get install xchat-gnome times out trying to connect to  us.archives.ubuntu.org  - ORG.  but all lines in /etc/apt/sources.list have .COM  ??
[03:31] <un_operateur> malikeye, did he have a umask set for the mount point?
[03:31] <IndyGUnFreak> trev, i don't know about google, but I watch avi's in full screen w/o issue
[03:32] <Ashton_K> The resolution of the video might be a problem, might be a bit.... grainy.
[03:32] <malikeye> then I remembered that fat/vfat has weird permissions
[03:32] <Ashton_K> But you can play it.
[03:32] <Ashton_K> Try using VLC
[03:32] <malikeye> un_operateur: don't know.. didn't see his fstab....
[03:32] <malikeye> s/his/their/
[03:32] <markoutther1> anyone know why I am getting this when trying to install nagios with apt-get?
[03:32] <markoutther1> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[03:32] <knapp> Are there any graphical frontends for FFmpeg? I'm trying to convert a VOB to AVI.
[03:32] <Ashton_K> Mark, did you use sudo?
[03:32] <un_operateur> w3ccv, the server seems down
[03:32] <trev_> knapp:, not any good ones that i found
[03:33] <malikeye> un_operateur: that was bad PD... I shoulda asked for fstab in the beginning
[03:33] <markoutther1> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[03:33] <un_operateur> markoutther1, you might need to sudo that command
[03:33] <markoutther1> No, should I ?
[03:33] <IndyGUnFreak> yes
[03:33] <markoutther1> Like what sudo apt-get install .....
[03:33] <IndyGUnFreak> thats why it asked if you were root..lol
[03:33] <un_operateur> markoutther1, yes
[03:33] <srothroc> Or, here's another question to ignore: Why is it that I can specify the ESSID, but when checking iwconfig, I see that the AP's MAC address doesn't match the AP's actual MAC address?
[03:33] <markoutther1> thanks guys, new to this linux stuff
[03:34] <IndyGUnFreak> ah, it happens
[03:34] <IndyGUnFreak> you'll come here a lot.
[03:34] <gouki> Testing something: still system anything - ignore this
[03:34] <malikeye> un_operateur: I shouldn't have been so quick to squash Flannels input :)
[03:34] <un_operateur> srothroc, routers and switches have multiple mac addresses -- one for each ethernet interface
[03:34] <w3ccv> un_operateur,  ok, I thought there was a boobo in my files.  I'll just keep.  Actually there is no DNS entry for it.  (did a nslookup)
[03:34] <w3ccv> s/a/an/
[03:34] <un_operateur> malikeye, what did you say to Flannel ?
[03:34] <NineTeen67Comet> Hello all .. any video editor individuals in here? I've got a project to work on. I've got 5 camera angels, and am in the process of copying all the audio/video off the tapes to the hd so I can edit them .. But I would like to use the sound off one of the videos as the video .. and sync all the rest to that sound .. possible?
[03:34] <sephirot1> Umm...guys. still no progress. I've got sun-java5-jdk installed and i am unable to get the NetBeans installer to identify the jdk path
[03:35] <Ashton_K> Anyone here know much about RAID 1 in here?
[03:35] <Ashton_K> (Hooray redundant sentence structure)
[03:35] <malikeye> I dismissed umask entirely without knowing 100% on my own that it was that way
[03:35] <markoutther1> Now it says E: Couldn't find package nagios does this mean I cant install with apt-get?
[03:35] <un_operateur> w3ccv, you can always use another mirror in the meantime -- sudo perl -i.bak -pe 's/ubuntu/uk\.ubuntu/' /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:35] <srothroc> I'm trying to figure out why my wireless isn't working; if the MAC address is fine, then it's seeing the AP fine. Checking iwconfig shows a bunch of errors for "Rx invalid crypt", which I take to mean that my key is invalid. I've retyped it half a dozen times now.
[03:36] <tigafan09>  anyone else in here have Jmicron on their mobo?
[03:36] <trev_> does anyone know what to do if your nvidea card won't display videos in fullscreen?
[03:36] <gouki> testing something: still system
[03:37] <un_operateur> srothroc, I'd make sure that both sides were talking the same authentication and encryption protocols -- 64/128bit WEP vs WPA, etc
[03:37] <skeeto> if you have a brand new IPOD and are going to connect it to a Windows machine later and sometimes a Linux machine do you format the IPOD filesystem to vfat?
[03:38] <srothroc> Hence my previous question -- how to ensure that the ubuntu side is actually talking 64-bit WEP?
[03:38] <brady> what is the process to convert my ubuntu install to turkish?
[03:38] <brady> dpkg-reconfigure ...
[03:39] <un_operateur> skeeto, an ipod has its own format i think -- most probably apple's hfs/hfs+ or something like it
[03:39] <malikeye> do they stil use hfs ? I thought they stopped making windows vs mac ipods
[03:39] <brady> skeeto, mac ipods are hfs, win ipods are fat
[03:39] <un_operateur> srothroc, i'm not too sure as i dont run wireless on my linux machine -- iwconfig --help might give you an indicator
[03:40] <un_operateur> malikeye, an ipod is an ipod -- no windows or apple specific ones ..
[03:40] <Ashton_K> Does anyone know if RAID 1 has to mirror the whole disc, or can it merely mirror a single partition?
[03:40] <tigafan09>  anyone else in here have Jmicron on their mobo?
[03:40] <malikeye> do they do an initial format during setup ? I don't know if windows supports HFS
[03:41] <Ashton_K> Malikeye, in order to access an iPod, you have to go through separate software.
[03:41] <un_operateur> Ashton_K, Raid1 does no mirroring
[03:41] <Ashton_K> Like iTunes, so whether Windows supports HFS is unimportant?
[03:41] <Ashton_K> *.
[03:41] <Ashton_K> Un, wait what?
[03:41] <malikeye> Ashton_K: not really.. if wondows can't see the partition then it can't use it
[03:41] <un_operateur> Ashton_K, err sorry -- it does, i'm confusing it with RAID2
[03:41] <Ashton_K> On an iPod?
[03:42] <malikeye> yeah
[03:42] <Ashton_K> No, that's not important.
[03:42] <malikeye> the partition is most important
[03:42] <Ashton_K> Because in order to write to an iPod, you have to use separate software.
[03:42] <Ashton_K> That software, can see HFS.
[03:42] <malikeye> itunes can't magically see HFS if the windows kernel doesn't support it
[03:42] <Ashton_K> Windows, can see the USB port.
[03:42] <un_operateur> malikeye, windows sees the partition using the ipod driver
[03:42] <malikeye> there is an ipod driver ?
[03:42] <Ashton_K> Probably in iTunes.
[03:42] <un_operateur> malikeye, sure, just as there is for any hardware
[03:43] <Ashton_K> Now the question is, is there an iPod driver for Linux?
[03:43] <Ashton_K> (Or module, even)
[03:43] <malikeye> I'm not sure about that... its just a harddrive to the OS
[03:43] <un_operateur> Ashton_K, sure
[03:43] <deebus> is there a way to list the user accounts on a machine at the command line?  other than less-ing the /etc/passwd?
[03:43] <un_operateur> malikeye, and harddrives (or the controllers to be precise) dont need drivers??
[03:44] <malikeye> they do
[03:44] <MistaED> Ashton_K: yeah i plug in my ipod all the time and it comes up as ipod with a nice ipod icon ;) but it works just as if it were an external drive
[03:44] <brady> this ipod talk is not very important in this channel.
[03:44] <Ashton_K> Which is probably even handier than going through software.
[03:44] <archangelpetro> does anyone have issues writing to USB mem sticks?
[03:44] <Ashton_K> No.
[03:44] <malikeye> yup... looks like there is a driver... but that doesn't change the whole FS thing
[03:44] <un_operateur> malikeye, it;s more like a peripheral more than an external storage device -- it does need a driver to be able to translate win32 specific commands to its own
[03:44] <deebus> anyone know how to list user accounts at the command line?
[03:44] <Ashton_K> Make sure your thumb drive is formatted as FAT.
[03:44] <Ashton_K> (Mine is FAT 16, but it's a 256 meg one)
[03:45] <archangelpetro> specifically.. trying to write files
[03:45] <Ashton_K> No.
[03:45] <Ashton_K> No problems.
[03:45] <Ashton_K> Make sure it's formatted as FAT.
[03:45] <archangelpetro> deebus, cat /etc/passwd
[03:45] <Ashton_K> And that it's mounted (Although I think Ubuntu auto mounts)
[03:45] <deebus> other than that
[03:45] <deebus> really, I just want a list that's super easy to tokenize
[03:45] <brady> deebus why?
[03:45] <tigafan09>  what is the risk of messing up an ntfs drive when writing to it in ubuntu?
[03:45] <Ashton_K> They claim it's stable, but I'd imagine it's a possibility.
[03:46] <deebus> to parse through my /var/log/auth.log and alert me when a brutessh attack hits a correct user account name
[03:46] <Ashton_K> Since I think NTFS is supposed to be a closed format.
[03:46] <un_operateur> deebus, maybe -- perl -lne 'print /^([^:] *?):/' /etc/passwd
[03:46] <ubuntu> hi all
[03:46] <tigafan09>  and when in windows and writing to a ext3 drive, is there a risk of screwing it up?
[03:47] <morvok> how about ls /home??
[03:47] <un_operateur> tigafan09, sure, just as there is when using an NTFS driver on linux
[03:47] <ubuntu> hello to everyone
[03:47] <Rustle> Right
[03:47] <deebus> aw jeez...
[03:47] <deebus> ls /home...
[03:47] <deebus> I am an retard
[03:47] <Ashton_K> I'd imagine windows to ext3 is safer than Linux to NTFS
[03:48] <Ashton_K> Since the ext3 driver is open source, and easily converted to windows.
[03:48] <malikeye> from apple.com : "If configured for a Mac, the iPod will be restored as Mac OS Extended (HFS Plus). If configured for Windows, the iPod will be restored as FAT32."
[03:48] <CorpseFeeder> what is the apt-get commands to install make, gcc and linux-headers packages?
[03:48] <Ashton_K> But windows didn't exactly hand us an NTFS driver.
[03:48] <deebus> thank, you morvok.  apparently I'm riding the short bus tonight
[03:48] <un_operateur> deebus, thats only going to list the users who have logged on
[03:48] <Ashton_K> apt-get linux-headers`uname -r` I think
[03:48] <morvok> deebus: don't worry half the time I am the team leader driving the bus
[03:48] <Ashton_K> Notice the back ticks (Those aren't apostrophes)
[03:48] <deebus> lol
[03:48] <un_operateur> deebus, or those whose home directories have been created
[03:48] <malikeye> "You cannot use an iPod whose disk is configured for Macintosh on a Windows-compatible computer"
[03:48] <stormchas3r> how do i change my hostname in ubuntu server?
[03:49] <Ashton_K> So, does anyone know? Can RAID 1 mirror a partition, or must it mirror the whole drive?
[03:49] <deebus> operateur:  that's fine, that's all I really need for right now, I think
[03:49] <un_operateur> deebus, best you parse /etc/passwd
[03:49] <deebus> ugh.  oh well
[03:49] <daviey> Hi, does anybody know of a 3-way videoconferencing (full-screen) software that is compatible with windows?  It also needs to be easily installed, with no firewall forwarding for the windows users.
[03:49] <deebus> I'll have to whip up a script sometime when I'm not being an retarded
[03:49] <Ashton_K> Daviey, Skype.
[03:50] <un_operateur> deebus, this ought to do it -- perl -lne 'print /^([^:] *?):/' /etc/passwd
[03:50] <Ashton_K> It'll do video conferencing, and it'll do multi-way calling. Don't know if it'll do both at once though.
[03:50] <Ashton_K> There are linux and windows variants available.
[03:50] <daviey> Ashton_K, does skype support video on linux?
[03:50] <CorpseFeeder> everything I type into apt-get on command line is just giving me illegal operation error
[03:50] <Ashton_K> To my knowledge, yes.
[03:50] <w3ccv> Ash-Fox, I think the vido is available only for XP  -  W2k doesn't
[03:51] <deebus> wow, thanks oper
[03:51] <Ashton_K> Getting Linux to like your webcam might be an interesting task though.
[03:51] <deebus> regex ninja
[03:51] <w3ccv> Ashton_K, , I think the vido is available only for XP  -  W2k doesn't
[03:51] <daviey> Ashton_K, i have the webcam working, but cannot find the setting on skype for it!
[03:51] <NixNewb> Can i have both KDE and Gnome on the same system?
[03:51] <Da> oi
[03:51] <malikeye> NixNewb: certainly
[03:51] <Da> hello all
[03:51] <w3ccv> daveyates, video is XP only - dammit
[03:51] <morvok> corpse-feeder: are you running it as root?
[03:52] <deebus> thanks all.  piece out
[03:52] <NixNewb> do you have the link to the wiki page to do that or point me in the right direction?
[03:52] <deebus> oh yeah...I said p-i-e-c-e out
[03:52] <NixNewb> cause I'm seeing kubuntu, a whole 'nother installation
[03:52] <moil> how do I set permissions on a samba share to allow a remote user to edit/move/delete files
[03:52] <malikeye> NixNewb: just install them both, when you get the X login screen you can choose by changing the session option
[03:53] <Olathe> Does anyone know how to configure /etc/network/interfaces to use WPA personal AES ?
[03:53] <malikeye> NixNewb: aptitude install gnome ?
[03:53] <NixNewb> so it would be "sudo apt-get install kde"?
[03:53] <malikeye> you already have KDE, right ?
[03:53] <NixNewb> I have gnome installed already, cause thats what was on the disk
[03:54] <malikeye> ok, I read that wrong up there... yeah that would work
[03:54] <Spaghetti_Knife> How do I play dvd's on my computer? I look at the desktop, and I don't see an icon.
[03:54] <NixNewb> but the pages i'm looking at say I have to get another distro, kubuntu
[03:54] <CorpseFeeder> it is logged in as root, all I am getting is illegal operation from apt-get
[03:54] <malikeye> NixNewb: nah... don't need to do that
[03:54] <junior_cronos> hello
[03:54] <morvok> corpseFeeder: what are you typing in?
[03:54] <malikeye> NixNewb: try that command, it's gonna ask you to confirm installation anyway
[03:54] <NixNewb> okay
[03:54] <Spaghetti_Knife> How do I play dvd's?
[03:55] <Spaghetti_Knife> I can't find the dvd icon.
[03:55] <NixNewb> Package kde is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[03:55] <NixNewb> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[03:55] <NixNewb> is only available from another source
[03:55] <Ashton_K> Try /media/hdc?
[03:55] <malikeye> !libdvdcss
[03:55] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[03:55] <Ashton_K> Or whatever your mount folder is.
[03:55] <Ashton_K> Try VLC
[03:56] <junior_cronos> hello im brazilian
[03:56] <Ashton_K> I've yet to have it refuse a video file.
[03:56] <CorpseFeeder> sudo apt-get linux-headers or sudo apt-get linux-headers`uname -r` or sudo apt-get linux-headers-`uname -r` or sudo apt-get pyjamas/pork chop/underpants... it doesn't matter what... it just responds with illegal operation

[03:56] <morvok> CorpseFeeder: sudo apt-get install foo
[03:56] <malikeye> NixNewb: sudo aptitude install kde works for me
[03:57] <aliendream23> I fixed the problem by editing my fstab and doing an unmount and remnount, restarting the x server and bashing my head into the monitor a few times, thanks :)
[03:57] <CorpseFeeder> aha! install

[03:57] <NixNewb> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/844039
[03:58] <Ashton_K> Hrm, I dunno, is there an open source zip file?
[03:58] <Ashton_K> Seems all we use are tarballs.
[03:58] <jeeves_Moss> Ashton_K: do you know anything about GPSD?
[03:58] <cmweb> tar: This does not look like a tar archive
[03:58] <cmweb> tar: Skipping to next header
[03:58] <cmweb> tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers

[03:58] <NixNewb> would I need to change where apt-get is checking
[03:58] <malikeye> NixNewb: try aptitude
[03:58] <xbrc> holy christ there is alot of people in here
[03:58] <burner> moil, you have to set local permissions on it that way
[03:58] <NixNewb> okay
[03:58] <malikeye> apt-get works for me too
[03:59] <moil> as in right click - properties?
[03:59] <malikeye> you might need universe for kde, not sure
[03:59] <NixNewb> awesome, that seems to have done the trick malikeye
[03:59] <burner> moil, yea
[03:59] <malikeye> weird
[03:59] <Ashton_K> Yeah, cnweb, the tar command won't work for zips.
[03:59] <NixNewb> I thiought aptitude was some sort of slang

[03:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kde-desktop - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:59] <moil> I tried opening up permissions that way but it didn't seem to do anything
[03:59] <vox754> !kde
[03:59] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the K Desktop Environment. To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop", or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE for other ways to get KDE
[03:59] <cmweb> Ashton_K, i need a way to unzip though
[03:59] <NixNewb> I just saw text and didn't bother reading it
[04:00] <vox754> !tell malikeye about kde
[04:00] <xbrc> can someone answer me this: how do I get permissions? I installed ntfs g3.. long story short.. i went through the disk utility because everything else doesn't seem as it is working.. i click on browse and it tells me i dont have permissions to browse..
[04:00] <Spaghetti_Knife> I think my Ubuntu doesn't recognize my cd drive.
[04:00] <NixNewb> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/844042

[04:01] <Dot> i have an issue with themes
[04:01] <malikeye> vox754: NixNewb is looking for just kde
[04:01] <Dot> i installed the t-ish theme
[04:01] <malikeye> aptitude install kde should work
[04:01] <Dot> and the scrollbar dosent change to the trippy blue and round one
[04:01] <cmweb> i hate freebsd
[04:01] <vox754> !tell xbrc about chmod
[04:02] <Dot> it stays the same ugly square one
[04:02] <NixNewb> well, i'll log out and check to see if I can switch

[04:02] <NixNewb> ok
[04:02] <Dot> any help?
[04:02] <vox754> !tell NixNewb about kde
[04:02] <cmweb> Can i just change the extention and do the regular command? (from .zip to .tar)
[04:02] <malikeye> NixNewb: that didn't install anything for you... you might have KDE already
[04:03] <Dot> heloooo
[04:03] <malikeye> NixNewb: aptitude install kubuntu-desktop... see what it wants to install
[04:03] <cmweb> !kde | nixNewb

[04:04] <malikeye> kubuntu-desktop is gonna pull in a whole lot of stuff
[04:04] <NixNewb> Its Getting right now
[04:04] <malikeye> you probably already had kde installed
[04:05] <Dot> well it would be nice if i could get a response

[04:06] <cmweb> dot, whats the problem
[04:06] <malikeye> !anybody
[04:06] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:06] <Acu_> today, nothing is working - I have 40 GB in a Debian RC1 machine - I want to burn it on Double Layer - doesnot work - I want to transfer to a windows laptop (it does it at 599kb /min) - I attach a RW DVD and it writes with 36k b/min - I attache a Porshe Design Lacie External Hardisk (280GB) but I cannot write on it from Linux - what the heck is that?
[04:06] <malikeye> Dot: just ask... if someone can help, they will... that's why we're here :)
[04:06] <burner> Dot, so your T-ish theme doesn't work... maybe it uses a gtk-engine that you don't have?
[04:07] <cmweb> Dot, the way you ask and the way you act affect how your question is answered
[04:07] <Dot> id think so
[04:07] <Cheyenne> Is there a easy graphical way to use Samba in 6.06
[04:07] <Dot> it dosent say, i dont think ill check
[04:07] <idlemind> cheyenne webmin
[04:08] <Acu_> Cheyenne: there is GSAMBAD - but I do not know how good it is
[04:08] <NixNewb> Thanks for the help so mailkeye, I appreciate it
[04:08] <igor> Marry Cristmans for everybody
[04:08] <malikeye> Cheyenne: swat
[04:08] <malikeye> !swat
[04:08] <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
[04:08] <burner> cbeyenne, nautilus as a client... and right click "share" via nautilus?
[04:08] <malikeye> NixNewb: you are welcome.. not sure why you needed the whole desktop though... kinda irking me :)
[04:09] <Cheyenne> I was going to have 4 USB 250GB HD's to be my file server on 6.06
[04:09] <jrobinson> nice
[04:09] <rpereira> Does someone know how to sync Evolution+GmailContacts+GoogleCalendar?
[04:09] <NixNewb> Well, I just want to see what it looks like and see which GUI I prefer.  Gnome looks kind of ugly
[04:09] <cmweb>  rpereira, if you get an answer to that let me know please
[04:10] <rpereira> I don't know if I have to use OpenSync or MultiSync.
[04:10] <Cheyenne> For 5 Win XP and one Mac to host all of my files

[04:11] <jrobinson> does anyone know how well ubuntu runs on the shiny new HP entertainment notebooks?
[04:11] <burner> killer ;)
[04:11] <burner> ubuntu is killer on everything :)
[04:12] <jrobinson> k
[04:12] <Cheyenne> Can Ubuntu tun on a IBM Thinkpad 390E?
[04:12] <jrobinson> i heard some other people were having problems with the acpi on the notebook model i'm looking at
[04:12] <wastrel> http://www.linux-laptop.net/
[04:12] <jrobinson> yeah
[04:12] <jrobinson> that's where I looked
[04:12] <TheAsp> Cheyenne: assuming it supports WOL and it's plugged into a network, any dist could turn it on :)
[04:12] <jrobinson> i think I'll just buy it and return as needed
[04:13] <burner> i'd check the wiki for the hardwaresupport and laptoptestingteam
[04:13] <Spaghetti_Knife> When I pop it in, it starts running,
[04:13] <Cheyenne> I ment to say Run On
[04:13] <Cheyenne> Sorry.
[04:13] <ToHellWithGA> how can i build or install very large console fonts?  my monitor is far from me and i can run 1280x1024 with fat fonts on the LCD (about 160 dpi)
[04:13] <deebus> hm.  interesting
[04:13] <deebus> thx again
[04:13] <Spaghetti_Knife> When I pop my dvd in, it starts running, but nothing pops up.
[04:13] <malikeye> NixNewb: not why you chose it, why the kde metapackage didn't work :)
[04:13] <Spaghetti_Knife> I don't think Ubuntu recognizes my dvd player.
[04:13] <Spaghetti_Knife> Can anybody help?
[04:14] <TheAsp> Spaghetti_Knife: have you followed the multimedia instructions?
[04:14] <burner> Spaghetti_Knife, you have the dvd codecs?
[04:14] <burner> !dvd
[04:14] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[04:14] <NixNewb> oh okay, that makes more sense
[04:14] <Starcraftmazter> yo, when I play divx encoded .avi files in mplayer, the video is bouncing, anyone know why?
[04:14] <malikeye> :)
[04:14] <Spaghetti_Knife> Yes, I do.
[04:14] <malikeye> NixNewb: check out xfce too
[04:14] <Starcraftmazter> why?
[04:14] <Spaghetti_Knife> I even have libdvdread3.

[04:16] <jrobinson> do you think I should buy a notebook for myself before or after christmas?
[04:16] <w3ccv>
[04:16] <pegs-using-e17> Spaghetti_Knife: have you installed all the necessary packages?
[04:16] <AtticStorm> All, I have an issue upon upgrade to Edgy.  When it boots I get a "Signal Out of Range" error on boot.  Think the new light X server is using the wrong resolution.  Looked around but can not find the file to change.  Can anyone help?
[04:16] <mvore>
[04:16] <Cheyenne> Deffantly after Christmas.
[04:16] <jrobinson> ok
[04:16] <Spaghetti_Knife> pegs-using-e17: I have libdvdread3.
[04:16] <jrobinson> good idea
[04:16] <malikeye> day-after-xmas sales might be good
[04:16] <Cheyenne> I think prices would be lower
[04:16] <NixNewb> jrob, it depends on the tax laws where you live, and if you want to buy it online
[04:17] <pegs-using-e17> you will also need libdvdcss2
[04:17] <NixNewb> where I live stores get taxed on new years, 12:01 on the inventory they have in stock
[04:17] <jrobinson> i live in texas, and I'm buying it from shopping.hp.com using an employee discount
[04:17] <NixNewb> so they're especially eager to get rid of items between Christmas and New Years
[04:17] <xabbott> AtticStorm:  /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[04:17] <NixNewb> I live a few miles from HP
[04:17] <NixNewb> Small world
[04:17] <jrobinson> where?
[04:17] <Spaghetti_Knife> pegs-using-e17: I type in the command for installing libdvdread3, but the documentation's for ubuntu 6.06. I have 6.10, so the installation might already be done by Synaptic.
[04:18] <NixNewb> Off 249
[04:18] <jrobinson> houston?
[04:18] <NixNewb> Yes
[04:18] <jrobinson> k
[04:18] <jrobinson> i'm in spring
[04:18] <cafuego_> AtticStorm: boot the recovery mode, then fix your X cfg.
[04:18] <Jule1> OK, building linux box for daughter, I need to get codecs, and it's the same pain it was when I set mine up...
[04:18] <AtticStorm> xabbott: Will take a look and get back.  Thanks.
[04:18] <NixNewb> I work in Spring, when I'm not at school
[04:18] <Jule1> does anyone have a nice link that explains it???
[04:18] <Cheyenne> What version of Ubuntu would be good for a MC
[04:18] <NixNewb> I live in Cypress
[04:18] <jrobinson> nice
[04:18] <jrobinson> cool
[04:18] <Spaghetti_Knife> pegs-using-e17: And anyway, even without dvd playback, the computer should recognize the dvd.
[04:18] <jrobinson> small world
[04:18] <jrobinson> where do you work?

[04:19] <wastrel> :]
[04:19] <pegs-using-e17> what sort of dvd is it?
[04:19] <srothroc> I tried installing Opera and got "Dependency is not satisfiable: libqt3-mt" -- any suggestions?
[04:19] <AtticStorm> cafuego_: Do I run "X cfg" at the recovery root command line to start this up?
[04:19] <NixNewb> I work for an engineer in an office he has behind his house
[04:19] <NixNewb> A few blocks away from Klien
[04:19] <Cheyenne> What version of Ubuntu would be good for a MC
[04:19] <cafuego_> AtticStorm: 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[04:19] <NixNewb> *Klein
[04:19] <malikeye> not to mention it's bad to give out personal info like this in teh interweb
[04:19] <jrobinson> cool
[04:19] <malikeye> :)
[04:20] <jrobinson> let's not anger the off-topic gods though
[04:20] <aSt3raL_> i installed a program using make.  is there an easy way to uninstall the software that i built?
[04:20] <surface> !w32codecs

[04:20] <NixNewb> Yes, we might have to make a sacrificial offering to appease their wrath
[04:20] <vox754> !tell Jule1 about codecs
[04:20] <Jule1> make cleandistro or some such, look in the makefile
[04:20] <cafuego_> Jule1: google w32codecs+ubuntu
[04:20] <mythos__> for codec-installation i used automatix
[04:20] <Jule1> thanks
[04:20] <malikeye> NixNewb: I'm not an off-topic god, but I'll take a sacrificail offering of dead presidents :)
[04:21] <cafuego_> aSt3raL_: normally not; you might need to manually remove what got installed.
[04:21] <malikeye> sacrificial, even
[04:21] <srothroc> Any suggestions for the libqt3-mt problem?
[04:21] <pegs-using-e17> another place to get all the codecs you need for avi, wmv and dvd go to http://seveas.imbrandon.com/
[04:21] <Cheyenne> What laptop cards work with ubuntu?
[04:21] <main2> all
[04:21] <Jule1> aSt3raL_: if you want to uninstall a program that you built from a makefile, you have to hope that the makefile has an uninstall.  you will have to look in the makefile for that, and be a bit savvy.
[04:21] <aSt3raL_> so just do like a slocate beryl* and remove all the files manually?
[04:21] <main2> every single one on this **** planet :')
[04:21] <NixNewb> I doubt any of them are virgins, except truman, he might have been
[04:22] <jrobinson> hmm, does the president have to be killed by us, or can I just go digging around DC?
[04:22] <Jule1> aSt3raL_: make cleandistro or something similar
[04:22] <cafuego_> aSt3raL_: possibly; but you should have just used the beryl packages anyway.
[04:22] <main2> Cheyenne: depends on the manufacter
[04:22] <aSt3raL_> nah i built the svn
[04:22] <Cheyenne> I mean wireless cards and ethernet cards tork?
 Thank you, I will give it a try.  When I upgraded to Edgy, it messed up KDE and have been working to get things back, but have been working in GNOME again.  Thanks again.
[04:22] <main2> tork?
[04:22] <cafuego_> aSt3raL_: so does the maintainer, as packages.
[04:22] <malikeye> wow, there is gonna be feds in this channel soon :)
[04:22] <vox754> !wireless
[04:22] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:22] <Jule1> ubotu: thanks, I just noticed your pm.
[04:22] <aSt3raL_> over an old svn and it segfaults because of some old plugin conflict
[04:22] <main2> once again, check the manufactor its site etc...
[04:23] <Jule1> hehe
[04:23] <Cheyenne> Can you give me a page?
[04:23] <main2> some are cooperative, and do what they should do

[04:23] <main2> just google the "nameofthecard"+"linux"
[04:23] <Cheyenne> I was looking for one to buy
[04:24] <main2> Cheyenne: ok, that changes the situation
[04:24] <main2> wanne play it safe.. get a intel card (ipw2200 or something)
[04:24] <wastrel> <3 ipw2200
[04:24] <main2> those are cheap, really well supported
[04:24] <malikeye> wastrel: agreed
[04:24] <cafuego_> or an atheros; most netgear models that end in 'T' are atheros.
[04:24] <Cheyenne> i have a cheep X-Jack connector eathernet but i have broke most of the ones i have
[04:24] <main2> intel most of the wlan stack!!
[04:24] <main2> ^^
[04:24] <vox754> !search intel

[04:25] <cafuego_> main2: Why not? They work fine.
[04:25] <main2> fck off
[04:25] <main2> they do not
[04:25] <Cheyenne> Is there a page with currently supported cards
[04:25] <cafuego_> main2: Mind you manners please.
[04:25] <srothroc> Any help with getting the downloadable Opera 9.1 install file working with Dapper Drake?
[04:25] <main2> yes, there are a few sites with listings Cheyenne
[04:26] <Cheyenne> for ubuntu
[04:26] <cafuego_> Cheyenne: the wiki lists a whole lot of cards and instructions for them
[04:26] <srothroc> I try running it with the Package Installer and I get "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libqt3-mt".
[04:26] <main2> cafuego there's nothin wrong with my manners..
[04:26] <main2> suggesting somebody to buy a broadcom to be used under linux = insane.. rediculous
[04:26] <cafuego_> main2: Maybe I imagined it then
[04:26] <PORDO>  can anyone here help me to get dmix working with my spdif?
[04:27] <cafuego_> main2: Like I said, the 4306 works fine.
[04:27] <main2> how do you know

[04:27] <main2> they had to reverse all those chips..
[04:27] <cafuego_> main2: and they did a great job, the driver works.
[04:27] <srothroc> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser is, unfortunately, out of date...
[04:28] <Ranbee> srothroc: there should be a deb on the opera site you can use
[04:28] <cafuego_> main2: with wep, without wep, with wpa, with wpa+radius.
[04:28] <main2> they did a great job, but the chance that it stops working some moment is real..
[04:28] <cafuego_> main2: most 4318s work too, but NOT the others.
[04:28] <srothroc> That's what I tried, it's what gave me the error, Ranbee.

[04:30] <jeeves_Moss> all:  ANYONE?  GPSD?
[04:30] <ablyss> use dapper version srothroc
[04:30] <Ranbee> if not try this - sudo aptitude install libqt3-mt
[04:30] <Ranbee> srothroc: ^^
[04:30] <cafuego_> It's not as if the intel chips don't need closed firmware files.

[04:32] <NixNewb> whats the difference between apt-get and aptitude?
[04:32] <eigenlambda> aptitude is more one word
[04:32] <eigenlambda> whereas apt-get is more standard
[04:32] <eigenlambda> its a tradeoff
[04:32] <eigenlambda> you know?
[04:33] <NixNewb> so its just in the name?
[04:33] <vox754> !search aptitude

[04:33] <un_operateur> Nix, aptitude's more sophisticated -- but in the same context of apt-get -- it remembers dependencies installed and removes them should they no longer be needed
[04:33] <berbear> how do i find out if my wireless is eth0 or eth1
[04:33] <eigenlambda> (you usually have to use debfoster for that)
[04:33] <NixNewb> thanks un

[04:40] <srothroc> Is there a way to have the windows key be a combination key for keyboard shortcuts, like ctrl, alt, and shift are?
[04:40] <vox754> !shortcuts
[04:40] <ubotu> Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net

[04:41] <ubotu> You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords>", the "apt:/" URL in KDE, or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways!

[04:43] <Ranbee> badwarri0r: type this into terminal - file nkrecnik-0.19 then post the output
[04:43] <eigenlambda> nvidia drivers?  dunno how they deal with refresh rates.  all i know is, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to reconfigure your refresh rates

[04:45] <un_operateur> MrSprout, you might like to try this -- gnome-display-properties
[04:45] <wimpies> file command with files in that directory
[04:45] <badwarri0r> Ranbee: what to write in the terminal now ??
[04:46] <wimpies> badwarri0r : what files are in that nk* directory ?
[04:46] <Zoffix> !search telnet
[04:46] <ubotu> Found: telnet

[05:07] <badwarri0r> man because i lost there
[05:07] <Madpilot> wimpies, Ubuntu uses sudo, not root, by default - so 'sudo apt-get install..."
[05:07] <TheAsp> Faintofhearts: what card do you have?
[05:07] <wimpies> badwarri0r : you are NOT root.  run sudo apt-get install libx11-dev
[05:07] <badwarri0r> pls lets start again
[05:08] <badwarri0r> ok i type that
[05:08] <vox754> un_operateur: you did your best, kick him, we'll try next time.
[05:08] <Faintofhearts> TheAsp: I have an intel 810, or something similar.
[05:08] <badwarri0r> pls no kick me
[05:08] <badwarri0r> pls
[05:08] <badwarri0r> i need the help

[05:08] <Madpilot> ubotu, enter | badwarri0r
[05:08] <ubotu> badwarri0r: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:08] <TheAsp> Faintofhearts: are you using the i810 driver?
[05:08] <Faintofhearts> Yes.
[05:08] <wimpies> badwarri0r : run ./configure --prefix=/usr again till it completes successfully
[05:08] <un_operateur> vox754, i'm actually quite amused by his clownish antics :)
[05:09] <TheAsp> Faintofhearts: some i810 stuff needs other stuff to be modified...  google for your exact hardware
[05:09] <badwarri0r> wimpies: i type ./configure --prefix=/usr and after that just i have one error i dont have completed
[05:09] <wimpies> badwarri0r : and don't beg ... just as questions ... and I want to go to bed !
[05:09] <Faintofhearts> Sure thing.
[05:09] <wimpies> badwarri0r : what error ?
[05:10] <badwarri0r> wimpies: checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!
[05:10] <TheAsp> Faintofhearts: you might need to run in 16bpp too
[05:10] <un_operateur> lloll :))
[05:10] <wimpies> badwarri0r : have you run sudo apt-get install libx11-dev ???
[05:10] <Faintofhearts> How would I go about doing that TheAsp?
[05:10] <badwarri0r> wimpies: yes i have run that
[05:11] <wimpies> badwarri0r : run it again to make sure
[05:11] <un_operateur> wimpies, badwarri0r -- sudo aptitude install libx11-dev x-dev
[05:11] <TheAsp> Faintofhearts: edit xorg.conf?
[05:11] <wimpies> un_operateur : x-dev ? I do not have an x-dev package installed
[05:11] <badwarri0r> ok i run now sudo aptitude install libx11-dev x-dev and then what to type ??
[05:11] <wimpies> un_operateur : x-dev ? oops i DO have one ... sorry
[05:11] <brady> is there any difference between using a server install disk then apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and using the desktop install cd?
[05:11] <wimpies> badwarri0r : run configure ... again !!
[05:12] <Faintofhearts> TheAsp: I'm sort of new to this. What exactly am I editing in?
[05:12] <wimpies> un_operateur : x-dev  seems to be a dummy package
[05:12] <badwarri0r> omg
[05:12] <badwarri0r> i have the error again
[05:12] <TheAsp> Faintofhearts: start with google...
[05:12] <Faintofhearts> Ok
[05:13] <TheAsp> Faintofhearts: is it a laptop?
[05:13] <wimpies> badwarri0r : I suppose you have typed your password (of the user you are currently logged in with) as the prompt sudo generates
[05:13] <Faintofhearts> TheAsp: No it's a desktop.
[05:13] <badwarri0r> wimpies: can we start again and quick pls ?
[05:13] <maquis> is there a way to dist-upgrade a ubuntu-server installation without the rest of the base ubuntu packages being installed?
[05:13] <un_operateur> wimpies, indeed it is -- and it's meant to pull in the x-protocol headers
[05:13] <craigbass1976> Why, if I remove a package (postgresql) there's still a file in /etc/init.d ?
[05:13] <badwarri0r> wimpies: please really i need that program please.
[05:13] <wimpies> un_operateur : x-dev is for trainsitional purposes
[05:14] <TheAsp> craigbass1976: you didn't --purge it
[05:14] <un_operateur> craigbass1976, because you didnt purge-remove postgres
[05:14] <wimpies> badwarri0r : there is a file called config.log and scan it for errors (see which file from x11 is missing)
[05:14] <badwarri0r> wimpies: please can we start again new one ?
[05:14] <wimpies> badwarri0r :no need ... you just need some system files ... you do not need to start again
[05:14] <craigbass1976> TheAsp, is that part of the apt command, or that's the whole command?
[05:14] <badwarri0r> how to see with pico config.log
[05:14] <wimpies> badwarri0r : keep going !
[05:14] <TheAsp> craigbass1976: in debian/ubuntu you don't lose config files when you remove something unless you purge it
[05:14] <wimpies> badwarri0r : any editor will do
[05:14] <badwarri0r> so what to see there ?
[05:15] <un_operateur> craigbass1976, sudo aptitude purge postgresql
[05:15] <craigbass1976> TheAsp, I'm used to yum.  I just type purge-remove blahblah?
[05:15] <craigbass1976> ok
[05:15] <wimpies> badwarri0r : somewhere in that file it is trying to find X11 header files and the compiler probably produces some error ... just read through the file and look for any error
[05:15] <TheAsp> craigbass1976: or apt-get --purge remove
[05:16] <badwarri0r> wimpies: do you know that program for what i use it ?
[05:16] <bombhumper> does anyone know how to get k3b to burn mp3's
[05:16] <wimpies> badwarri0r : no
[05:16] <craigbass1976> TheAsp, ahh, there they go.
[05:16] <badwarri0r> wimpies: man for to learn english language, man i dont know english language.
[05:16] <TheAsp> craigbass1976: they are safe to keep around :)
[05:16] <badwarri0r> wimpies: i know just macedonian and serbian language
[05:16] <craigbass1976> TheAsp, I've screwed up installing ledgersmb somewhere, so I wanted to start fresh
[05:16] <slicky> wtf.. is it legal to download linux dists and then sell them for like 10 euros/cd (dvdr/cdr) burned copies... ?
[05:16] <variant> slicky: yes
[05:17] <TheAsp> craigbass1976: then yeah, you want to do that
[05:17] <bombhumper> hello homos
[05:17] <variant> slicky: it is encouraged
[05:17] <craigbass1976> slicky, you can do whatever you want, so long as the source is available to the customers
[05:17] <vleon> check
[05:17] <badwarri0r> wimpies: and please i will open terminal and you will tell me again on start please i really need the program i must go in IRAQ to work and have some money please, i have 34 years
[05:17] <wimpies> badwarri0r : I have just compiled it on my system
[05:17] <badwarri0r> wimpies: please
[05:17] <HyperHacker> so
[05:17] <slicky> okey, hm, strange, then i can start selling ubuntu dist via ebay ;D
[05:17] <un_operateur> slicky, sure, someone's got to pay for the manual labour put into packaging and distributing the media -- and something has to pay for the media and packaging itself
[05:17] <wimpies> badwarri0r : do not beg so much ... it won't help you
[05:17] <badwarri0r> wimpies: I open now a terminal and now ?
[05:17] <HyperHacker> I downloaded this "Ubuntu 6.10 alternate install CD"
[05:17] <variant> slicky: good luck finding buyers
[05:18] <HyperHacker> it's 903MB so it doesn't fit on a CD-R
[05:18] <badwarri0r> wimpies: man but please i must learn pls
[05:18] <wimpies> badwarri0r : do you have a mail address ? I will send you the compiled version
[05:18] <slicky> variant: lol =)
[05:18] <HyperHacker> but it's a CD-R image so it can't be burned to a DVD.
[05:18] <HyperHacker> wtf?
[05:18] <un_operateur> slicky, what makes you think they'll buy off of you when they can download for free??
[05:18] <badwarri0r><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[05:18] <un_operateur> :)
[05:18] <badwarri0r> here it
[05:18] <variant> HyperHacker: huh?
[05:18] <wimpies> badwarri0r : hold on
[05:18] <badwarri0r> ok
[05:18] <craigbass1976> variant, I am surprised every day with what people will pay money for.  Windows, for instance...  : )
[05:18] <variant> HyperHacker: it's an iso, you can burn it to anything
[05:18] <slicky> un_operateur: ill only sell to ppl who got 56k ;D
[05:18] <rusher> hello
[05:18] <badwarri0r> tell me when you sent it
[05:18] <HyperHacker> variant, when I try to burn the image in Nero it tells me it's not useable on DVDs
[05:19] <variant> slicky: you can order the ubuntu cd's for free from ubuntu site
[05:19] <rusher> the bad thing about ubuntu is that you need a internet connection
[05:19] <un_operateur> slicky, chances are they'll buy if off of amazon.com than you :p
[05:19] <variant> HyperHacker: thats because nero sucks balls tbh
[05:19] <wimpies> badwarri0r : just now ... check your inbox ... should subject is 'compile'
[05:19] <badwarri0r> ok
[05:19] <un_operateur> !language | variant
[05:19] <craigbass1976> slicky, then you may also want to warn them that their modem will most likely not work in Ubuntu, unless things have changed drastically.
[05:19] <ubotu> variant: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:19] <slicky> can i buy a ubuntu cd with manuals and stuff on the ubuntu site? :o
[05:19] <HyperHacker> variant, what else burns DVD images on XP?
[05:19] <variant> HyperHacker: no idea, i don't use it
[05:19] <slicky> craigbass1976:  why not? :o
[05:19] <HyperHacker> Windows thinks they're zero-byte CDRs
[05:20] <rusher> get infraexpress, great free program
[05:20] <craigbass1976> slicky, are you serious?
[05:20] <rusher> infraexpress <-- the best windows burning program, freeware
[05:20] <Ashton_K> Burn... windows? Sure!
[05:20] <Ashton_K> Sorry, had to.
[05:20] <Ranbee> HyperHacker: do you need to burn an iso on XP?
[05:20] <HyperHacker> yeah
[05:21] <slicky> craigbass1976: lol no.. just found this add at tradera.se about someone who was selling linux dists..  was just curius
[05:21] <craigbass1976> slicky, like I said, unless things have changed a lot since I got broadband, most software modems don't work in Linux because they're designed to be run with Windows.  Conextant offers drivers, for a fee, and there are some other that are reported to work, but it's spotty at best
[05:21] <HyperHacker> I've tried various programs but they don't recognize DVDs
[05:21] <badwarri0r> wimpies: so there you send me just icons ?
[05:21] <Ranbee> HyperHacker: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/burncdcc.html
[05:21] <badwarri0r> wimpies: man can you sent me all commands how to install it pls ???]
[05:21] <caminomaster> hi
[05:21] <craigbass1976> hi

[05:22] <wimpies> badwarri0r : in that file is also a file nkrecnik in the bin directory
[05:22] <caminomaster> There's a way to make xfce uses the gnome configuration (launchers, etc)?

[05:24] <cafuego_> badwarri0r: Why would you unpack it to / ?
[05:24] <caminomaster> cafuego, which file I need to modify to set it in?
[05:24] <badwarri0r> wait
[05:24] <wimpies> badwarri0r : because I compiled it to be installed like that
[05:24] <cafuego_> caminomaster: No idea, maybe run it from ~/.xinitrc
[05:24] <slicky> hm.. what ubuntu mint?
[05:24] <wimpies> cafuego_ : because I compiled it like that
[05:24] <slicky> "Ubuntu Linux 2.0 Mint"
[05:24] <cafuego_> wimpies: you'r making him unpack unchecked files to / ?  Does he know you?
[05:25] <cafuego_> slicky: Not ubuntu
[05:25] <wimpies> cafuego_ : that tar file  contains subdirectories of course !
[05:25] <cafuego_> wimpies: like /bin/bash? ;-)
[05:25] <slicky> cafuego_: okey
[05:25] <wimpies> cafuego_ : funny
[05:25] <cafuego_> wimpies: Not really

[05:35] <badwarri0r> and all delte :S
[05:36] <wimpies> badwarri0r : say again ?

[05:36] <badwarri0r> naah man i was had a nkrecnik
[05:36] <wimpies> badwarri0r : rm -rf * from where ?
[05:36] <badwarri0r> in the root terminal
[05:36] <kitche> badwarri0r: did you do it in /?
[05:36] <badwarri0r> i type rm -rf * in the terminal
[05:36] <wimpies> badwarri0r : that is NOT good...
[05:36] <badwarri0r> yep
[05:37] <badwarri0r> why ?
[05:37] <badwarri0r> what is that ?
[05:37] <badwarri0r> rm -rf * to delete all files ?
[05:37] <badwarri0r> a
[05:37] <kitche> badwarri0r try this ls and see if it says command not found

[05:37] <badwarri0r> nobody :)
[05:38] <kitche> badwarri0r ok thought you did it in / :)
[05:38] <badwarri0r> :)))))
[05:38] <PWill> rm -rf * is a bad idea
[05:38] <wimpies> kitche : in applnk is just as bad ...
[05:38] <badwarri0r> aha
[05:38] <badwarri0r> wimpies: so man how you means now to i run nkrecnik ?
[05:38] <Joker_> Can I interject a quick question that likely has a very easy fix?
[05:38] <wimpies> badwarri0r : run again sudo cp -ar /share/* /usr/share it should install some files again
[05:39] <wimpies> badwarri0r : you have installed ubuntu ? well that uses GNOME ... ncrecnik requires KDE which means kubuntu
[05:39] <badwarri0r> done
[05:39] <badwarri0r> and ?
[05:39] <badwarri0r> man lOOK i was have this program on gnome
[05:39] <wiseelben> anyone here uses MainActor
[05:40] <dxdt> Where do I add something so that it is always passed as an argument to the kernel even after the kernel has been automagically upgraded and stuff?  I am trying to pass vga=791 but it doesn't seemed to get passed.  I just want a better freaking looking console when I hit ctrl+alt+f1
[05:40] <badwarri0r> so man now what to type ? install recnik ?
[05:40] <wimpies> badwarri0r : wait
[05:40] <badwarri0r> okay.
[05:40] <wiseelben> Is there any way for me to import DivX avi's on MainActor 5.5?
[05:41] <tonyyarusso> dxdt: The kopt line.
[05:41] <Cheyenne> Another question from me, What do you people recomend for a boot loader?
[05:41] <xabbott> dxdt: i have it on my kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:41] <wimpies> badwarri0r : No, you NEED KDE to run nkrecnic  so you need to install kubuntu
[05:41] <badwarri0r> :S
[05:41] <badwarri0r> damn
[05:41] <dxdt> but what if you want it for all new kernels that may be pushed, does that still work?
[05:41] <Ranbee> badwarri0r: ask here [05:41] <xabbott> oh , yea

[05:42] <xabbott> do this

[05:42] <Joker_> jordan@jordan-beige:~$

[05:42] <wimpies> badwarri0r : How should I know... i am from belgium and have never had any need for serbian or macedonian ... sorry
[05:42] <tonyyarusso> dxdt: Yep, or in addition to any options that are already there.
[05:43] <Cheyenne> Another question from me, What do you people recomend for a boot loader?
[05:43] <badwarri0r> aha
[05:43] <badwarri0r> ok
[05:43] <badwarri0r> damn
[05:43] <badwarri0r> ok people :(
[05:43] <wimpies> badwarri0r : just install kubuntu (it is just some packages you need but I do not which ... check the website of ubuntu/kubuntu
[05:43] <dxdt> k gonna try it
[05:43] <wiseelben> joker_: not the smartest one here, but are you sure that your FAT hasn't been automatically mounted? Edgy automounts FATs (and even NTFS)
[05:43] <badwarri0r> man but i dont have kubuntu
[05:44] <wimpies> badwarri0r : download it from the net or run sudo apt-get install <SOMESPECIALPACKAGE>
[05:44] <|{> u can install kde thru synaptic if u have ubuntu or xubuntu
[05:44] <|{> yeh tht too
[05:44] <wimpies> but I do not know which package ... perhaps kubuntu or kde... check the website
[05:44] <Joker_> wiseelben: Don't think it's already mounted... Doesn't show up in Places>Computer
[05:44] <xabbott> badwarri0r:  aptitude install kubuntu-desktop i believe
[05:44] <|{> yeah it is.. just checked
[05:45] <Joker_> wiseelben: Did they just change something on me from Dapper to Edgy? I just got around to switching yesterday
[05:45] <badwarri0r> i type aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[05:45] <badwarri0r> i means i type sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[05:45] <badwarri0r> adn is 2%
[05:45] <badwarri0r> :S
[05:45] <wiseelben> joker_: you can try unmounting it first by using the "umount" command. something like "umount /dev/hda1"
[05:45] <wimpies> badwarri0r : it will take a which (KDE is not small) but after that you should be able to run the program
[05:45] <kitche> Joker_: type mount and pastebin what is mounted
[05:45] <wiseelben> you might need sudo
[05:45] <wimpies> have to go now and get some sleep ( it is 06:00 AM here ... )
[05:46] <badwarri0r> here is 6:00 am here too :)

[05:46] <|{> ?
[05:46] <Faintofhearts> Anyone here who may be able to help me with it?
[05:46] <Joker_> kitche: Where do you want me to paste it to you?
[05:46] <wimpies> badwarri0r : good luck ... install kde and you should be just fine
[05:46] <kitche> !paste|Joker_
[05:46] <ubotu> Joker_: 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)
[05:46] <nolimitsoya> |{, try 'sudo nvidia-glx-config enable'
[05:46] <badwarri0r> !paste Joker_
[05:46] <|{> \m/
[05:46] <badwarri0r> :)
[05:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about paste Joker_ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:46] <|{> thx
[05:46] <kitche> Joker_: just rememebr to paste the link

[05:47] <badwarri0r> hey people
[05:47] <badwarri0r> for downloading KDE i just need command: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop ???
[05:47] <wiseelben> ok I'm trying to install LiVES (vidoe editor), but apparently all the edgy libs are not current enough? For example, I get "libfontconfig1 (>= 2.4.0) but 2.3.2-7ubuntu2 is installed."
[05:47] <umop-apisdn> lol srry
[05:48] <badwarri0r> for downloading KDE i just need command: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop ???
[05:48] <badwarri0r> ????????????
[05:48] <wiseelben> badwarri0r, yes that would download the kubuntu desktop
[05:48] <dxdt> tonyyarusso, yeah that didn't work at all.  Console font is still huge and stuff
[05:48] <wiseelben> all theo ther stuff too, not JUST KDE
[05:48] <nolimitsoya> badwarri0r, no, thatll give you the full kubuntu desktop. for a vanilla kde install, just get 'kde' or 'kde-core' for a lightweight install
[05:48] <Joker_> kitche: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38617/
[05:48] <Faintofhearts> I need help enabling direct rendering. My graphics card is an Intel Corporation 82815 CGC and I have the i810 driver already installed.
[05:48] <badwarri0r> oki
[05:48] <badwarri0r> thanks ppl
[05:48] <badwarri0r> byee
[05:48] <umop-apisdn> Faintofhearts, same here
[05:48] <umop-apisdn> doom3?
[05:49] <tonyyarusso> dxdt: Sure you have the right vga setting?  Was it in hex or dec?  Mine is vga=0x318, btw.
[05:49] <Faintofhearts> Quake 3 actually :P
[05:49] <umop-apisdn> oic
[05:49] <nolimitsoya> Faintofhearts, should work out of the box. did you configure your xserver?
[05:49] <umop-apisdn> yeh mines still givin me trouble
[05:49] <Ranbee> can't badwarri0r just get the qt libs and headers?
[05:49] <kitche> Joker_: /dev/hda1 is your root filesystem why would you umount it?
[05:49] <dxdt> vga=791 is all I put
