[00:00] <moymoy> Trizicus: you don't have to boot into the liveCD, you can boot into recovery mode and do it as root, as root will not have to mount /home, so it'd be safe to fill that partition up to 100%
[00:00] <Trizicus> trevorj: Well I figured however I'd like to be able to setup a wipe for / with atleast 10 passes w/o intervention
[00:00] <Wallace> trizicus: like trevorj says, if you want to remove *everything* and it's your root parition, then boot off a cd and do it
[00:00] <oty> how do I close then restart wine?
[00:01] <trevorj> Trizicus: w/o intervention? as in run it and let it go? or can you boot it into a livecd and then run it and let it go?
[00:01] <Wallace> trizicus: for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0; do if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdax; done
[00:01] <Trizicus> trevorj: Yea but if I do it that way dd will destroy data lol
[00:01] <trevorj> Trizicus: you could do a loop like for `seq 1 10`; do dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp_zeros.tmp; tm /tmp_zeros.tmp; done
[00:01] <whoiswho> oh, i confused indicator-applet and notification-area. oops. okay thanks!
[00:02] <Wallace> trevorj: seq.... that's what i was looking for ;)
[00:02] <trevorj> Trizicus: not if you do it to a file
[00:02] <trevorj> Wallace: seq is very very nice
[00:02] <trevorj> Wallace: for such a simple tool, who knew it would be so damn effective
[00:02] <Wallace> trevorj: i keep finding new stuff in unix that's useful....and i've been using it for 15 years
[00:02] <zaoul> indeed
[00:02] <trevorj> Wallace: I feel you, fellow old hat
[00:03] <oty> what's the wine channel?
[00:03] <trevorj> oty: #wine?
[00:03] <oty> i want to whine about my wine program
[00:03] <zaoul> #winehq
[00:03] <Trizicus> can anyone vouch for bcwipe?
[00:03] <oty> thanks za
[00:03] <trevorj> oty: ah, listen to zaoul
[00:03] <ardchoille> #winehq
[00:03] <moymoy> Trizicus: maybe you can make use of some clever alias that links together `rm` and `shred` so that you'll never have to dd your free space again
[00:03] <Wallace> /p [ENTER] /j #winehq
[00:03] <vesper_> Hi can anyone help me with a screen problem. A lot of the windows on my net book are too big to be viewed. I've altered the resolution, resized them, moved them and I don't know what else to do
[00:03] <Tindo> anyone know anything about cairo dock?
[00:04] <Trizicus> moymoy: http://www.techthrob.com/2009/03/02/howto-delete-files-permanently-and-securely-in-linux/
[00:04] <kristina> hi, I just installed totem on kubuntu but got no sound at all, any ideas?
[00:04] <geek1212121212> Using a CQ60-419WM numpad center row and directionals left and right don't work USA layout and I have selected various keyboards with the same or worse result any thoughts.
[00:05] <trevorj> Trizicus: moymoy: what if a program calls the kernel directly though
[00:05] <SeaPhor|borked> kristina, install vlc
[00:05] <Wallace> kristina: step 1: double check all your volume settings
[00:05] <JairunCaloth> trevorj: So, I have the priv key on the remote machine, I've got %h/authorized_keys and authorized_keys2 in sshd_conf, nx is an allowed user & group. I'm stuck
[00:05] <moymoy> Trizicus: ahh.. i never knew about the -u option.. i always just removed with rm afterwards
[00:05] <Trizicus> sfill to wipe FREE space
[00:05] <Wallace> seaphor: is vlc available for karmic?  I tried today, and it appeared to be unavailable
[00:05] <Trizicus> have to get rid of some unruly stuffffff...... lol
[00:05] <linxeh> hmm is there vm solution that allows access to the VM console/gui over X11/VNC/RDP ?
[00:06] <JairunCaloth> trevorj: sshd still denies acces to user nx
[00:06] <kristina> Wallace: sound setting should be all right, the mic on totem is greyed out
[00:06] <trevorj> JairunCaloth: A better question would be, what exactly are you trying to do
[00:06] <joel> hi
[00:06] <moymoy> trevorj: i don't know if you'll be able to delete a file that calls to the kernel, but i know that you can get most programs to halt if you use the SysReq keystrokes
[00:06] <electricTape> hey guys.  I use Ubuntu 9.10.  Mac OS has a spotlight button and Windows has a search bar in the start menu.  Does Ubuntu have anything like that?
[00:06] <trevorj> JairunCaloth: just run freenx using nxclient normaly?
[00:06] <zzaza> Does any one have experience  of using M-Audio Fast Track Pro for podcasting, i just need two mic inputs do i really need a mixer if i have a ralatively good mic
[00:06] <SeaPhor|borked> Wallace, i did sudo apt-cache search vlc then from that did sudo apt-get install vlc,,, works fine
[00:07] <JairunCaloth> trevorj: yes
[00:07] <Wallace> electicetape: applications->accessories->search for files
[00:08] <electricTape> thanks
[00:08] <Stargazer> I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 and i'm at a CLI for some reason. the liveCD worked fine. any ideas?
[00:08] <trevorj> JairunCaloth: have you tried ssh'ing into the server like ssh nx@blah
[00:08] <trevorj> JairunCaloth: you should get the NXSERVER shell
[00:08] <arand_> Stargazer: what kindo of?
[00:09] <Stargazer> Arand_, what kind of what ?
[00:09] <SeaPhor|borked> scunizi, LjL,  this is what i get during the fresh install of 9.10- http://imagebin.ca/view/h5y8LBE.html   any ideas on how to make it see my partitions? this is the 3rd cd and image download, tried on a usb also, all the same
[00:09] <Wallace> SeaPhor|borked, E: Couldn't find package vlc-plugin-esd
[00:09] <JairunCaloth> trevorj: Permission denied (publickey).
[00:09] <trevorj> JairunCaloth: scp root@server:/var/lib/nxserver/home/custom_keys/client.id_dsa.key ./
[00:09] <electricTape> what do you guys think is the best dock menu for Ubuntu.  I like the OS X dock.
[00:09] <arand_> Stargazer: cli. is it the grub propt, is it the login prompt...?
[00:09] <trevorj> JairunCaloth: wait, first
[00:09] <scott704> Hello. [:
[00:09] <trevorj> JairunCaloth: did you create a custom server nx ssh key
[00:10] <trevorj> JairunCaloth: or did you use the default
[00:10] <SeaPhor|borked> Wallace, do you have another installer running, or an updater?
[00:10] <Wallace> seaphor: nope
[00:10] <SeaPhor|borked> Wallace, did u do the apt-cache search vlc ?
[00:10] <Stargazer> Arand_, it prompted me to login... like as if it was an alternative CD (which it wasn't).
[00:10] <Wallace> seaphor: yes
[00:10] <scott704> I'm new to Linux, anyone know where I could find a good tutorial for the terminal?
[00:10] <JairunCaloth> trevorj: when I follow the doc, and specify custom keys, the custom_keys directory never gets created...
[00:10] <JairunCaloth> trevorj: however
[00:10] <trevorj> JairunCaloth: you ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure freenx-server?
[00:10] <trevorj> JairunCaloth: and created one?
[00:10] <JairunCaloth> trevorj: yes
[00:11] <moymoy> Wallace: SeaPhor|borked: i don't havethat vlc plugin either, maybe the vlc ppa has to be added
[00:11] <Jordan_U> !terminal | scott704
[00:11] <arand_> Stargazer: and this is when you boot straight after install? In that case, video drivers would be the suspect...
[00:11] <JairunCaloth> trevorj: I can run nxkeygen and it puts them in ~nx/.ssh
[00:11] <scott704> Thanks. [:
[00:11] <JairunCaloth> trevorj: these are the keys I"m attempting to use
[00:11] <trevorj> JairunCaloth: ahic
[00:12] <Stargazer> I have an nVidiot card. what's the search command?
[00:12] <rhiliam> just installed karmic. Is there a way to specify the mountpoint for my encrypted luks partition. The system seems to automount it under media.
[00:12] <arand_> Stargazer: what happens if you login and run command " startx "
[00:12] <SeaPhor|borked> Wallace, open the Applications>Ubuntu Software... and make sure its set to "all available..." and choose from there
[00:12] <trevorj> JairunCaloth: do you have a /var/lib/nxserver/home/custom_keys dir
[00:12] <Wallace> SeaPhor|borked, I just tried without the plugin, and it's d/ling now
[00:12] <SeaPhor|borked> k
[00:12] <Stargazer> Arand_, it's the drivers "(EE) No drivers available."
[00:12] <trevorj> JairunCaloth: and by ~nx/.ssh do you mean /var/li/nxserver/home/.ssh?
[00:12] <Wallace> SeaPhor|borked, yes, i have a multiverse in sources.list
[00:13] <sres> join #ubuntu-fr
[00:13] <JairunCaloth> trevorj: no, I do not have a custom_keys dir, and yes /var/lib/nxserver/home/.ssh = ~nx
[00:14] <arand_> Stargazer: ok, that's somewhat odd, since the drivers obviously should've been installed... Ok, try " sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx " (tab completeion is convenient to avoid misspelling)
[00:14] <Wallace> SeaPhor|borked, seems to have worked without the plugin package
[00:14] <sres> join #ubuntu-fr
[00:14] <Wallace> :)
[00:15] <moymoy> Wallace: what sound system do you use?
[00:15] <JairunCaloth> trevorj: whenver I run dpkg-reconfigure freenx-server and tell it to use custom keys, or to create new custom keys, the /var/lib/nxserver/home/custom_keys dir does not ever get created.
[00:15] <peloverde> Is there any good alternative to the nvidia-vdpau ppa?
[00:15] <geek1212121212> anyone have exp with Using a CQ60-419WM numpad center row and directionals left and right don't work USA layout and I have selected various keyboards with the same or worse result any thoughts.
[00:15] <Wallace> moymoy: no idea
[00:15] <N3OInc> Whats with the CHannel EMergency thing?
[00:15] <grumbles> Can someone help me install Windows XP on my separate HDD?
[00:15] <Stargazer> Arand_, i have to choose between the 96, 185 and 173 packages of nvidia-glx.
[00:15] <grumbles> Some filesystem problem
[00:15] <Wallace> grumbles: try in #windows
[00:15] <SeaPhor|borked> Wallace, gotta have the app before the pluggin, because the app creates the dir the plugins need to install to
[00:15] <grumbles> thanks
[00:16] <moymoy> Wallace: then why install the vlc plugin? what wasn't working?
[00:16] <seme> can anyone give me a hand
[00:16] <seme> I'm trying to install wordpress on ubuntu
[00:16] <Wallace> moymoy: because that's what the vlc website says to do http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ubuntu.html
[00:16] <seme> the only info I can find is for old versions of ubuntu and I'm not sure it really applies
[00:16] <seme> any help pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated
[00:17] <arand_> Stargazer: Ok, then go for -185 which should be the standerd in karmic
[00:17] <moymoy> grumbles: should be fairly easy to install XP on another HDD, you just have to pick which drive you want as your C:
[00:17] <Wallace> SeaPhor|borked, I just tried again, and it still says can't find package.... i don't really care, it seems to work  just as long as that plugin isn't needed
[00:17] <sres> join #ubuntu-fr
[00:17] <sres> join # ubuntu-fr
[00:17] <Wallace> sres: try /join #ubuntu-fr

[00:18] <JairunCaloth> scott541: ssh
[00:18] <aperson> how do you shutdown a system when you have neither shutdown or reboot ?
[00:18] <moymoy> Wallace: you can add this ppa.. it'll keep your vlc up-to-date too https://launchpad.net/~c-korn/+archive/vlc
[00:18] <Wallace> idebug: appears to be, yes
[00:18] <geek1212121212> I admit I am using a compaq but please don't hold that against me I know they are crap.
[00:18] <SeaPhor|borked> Wallace, vlc is good about suggesting extra pluggins it needs as they arise
[00:18] <idebug> meh
[00:18] <s0undt3ch> what the hell happened to http://security.ubuntu.com ?
[00:18] <moymoy> aperson: type `sudo reboot` into a terminal
[00:18] <Wallace> SeaPhor|borked, sounds good - thanks moymoy, but ppa looks like something i don't need

[00:19] <Wallace> idebug: nope, but someone asked maybe an hour ago and it was down then too
[00:20] <moymoy> aperson: you don't have the program reboot in bin? D; .. well there are ways, if you utilize the SysReq keystrokes
[00:20] <idebug> Wallace: ah, k, must be something significant if its been over an hour
[00:20] <aperson> moymoy, /sbin, but yeah.  I've never been able to get those to work, it's REISUB

[00:35] <rww> Krstnsn: what filesystem is on the partition (e.g.: ntfs, ext3, fat32...)?
[00:35] <love> MyWay: I would try downloading audacity to check it :P
[00:35] <Krstnsn> its a fat32 and i want to create another fat32
[00:35] <jberry_> cuong: an aside... once things are screwy like that, I would make sure I have a good backup of my user data,etc.
[00:35] <Jordan_U> Pasifica: What happens when you try?
[00:35] <unitedpotsmokers> hello people, good morning, i forgot what channel to know all about best software especially for ubuntu
[00:35] <dshuller> IP comes from your provider
[00:35] <MyWay> i've tried with the audio register in gnome
[00:35] <MyWay> i'll try audacity
[00:35] <MK13> Wallace, it say no such device, i think it is because in the messages i pasted it says removed
[00:35] <Krstnsn> rww its a fat32 and i want to create another fat32
[00:35] <Pasifica> Jordan_U: nothing happens.. it just wont change my ip
[00:36] <love> Alsa with jack imho is  much better than pulseaudio anyday
[00:36] <rww> Krstnsn: is there a lock icon next to its name in the list?
[00:36] <Krstnsn> rww theres a key next to the partition so i thought it was set to read only or something
[00:36] <Jordan_U> Pasifica: Did you choose the profile you created?
[00:36] <git__> does anyone know what application to use to play mp3 while saving it?
[00:36] <JairunCaloth> alsa makes me want to slit my wrists
[00:36] <Pasifica> Jordan_U: yes
[00:36] <MyWay> love, how to set all to alsa?
[00:36] <rww> Krstnsn: is there an "Unmount" option in the right-click menu? If so, click that first.
[00:36] <nunojpg> file exist and is executable but when trying to execute I get ./setday_p: Command not found.
[00:36] <Stargazer> I'm using nVidia-glx but i can't seem to find a way to rotate my second monitor so it's visually correct. any ideas on how to rotate that second monitor?
[00:36] <MK13> Wallace, "unable to enumerate USB device on port 3"
[00:36] <cuong> so it seems like i will have to reinstall using 9.10 release then?
[00:36] <Wallace> mk13: try sdb1
[00:36] <Jordan_U> Pasifica: Can you pastebin the output from "nm-tool" ?
[00:37] <MyWay> in older ubuntu i had the option in preferences, but not in 9.10
[00:37] <Krstnsn> rww i pressed unmount and it said it was busy. i have nothing going on with the drive
[00:37] <git__> i'm not able to mount filesystem.squashfs on a livecd (9.10) from a hardy (8.04)
[00:37] <dshuller> Your IP is provisioned by your provider.
[00:37] <geek1212121212> keyboard anyone please help
[00:37] <mneptok> !info nvidia-settings
[00:37] <jberry_> cuong: without getting your hands really dirty by playing around with the kernel files themselves, the only thing that comes to mind would be to download a 9.10 CD and do the install from that.
[00:37] <Wallace> mk13: hmm, i don't now much about usb hardware :(
[00:37] <nunojpg> ls -l setday_p: -rwxr-xr-x 1 gipsy users 100415 May 21  2009 setday_p
[00:37] <cuong> since the upgrade seems screw
[00:37] <MyWay> here i can't find where to set to alsa
[00:37] <love> MyWay thats alot  of poking and prodding I'm not too familiar with
[00:37] <mneptok> Stargazer: ^^^
[00:37] <cuong> cheers!
[00:37] <mneptok> Stargazer: that package might do it. i'm not sure, as i don't use nvidia products.
[00:38] <cuong> thank you all for your help!
[00:38] <jberry_> sorry, i couldn't help more -- anything more detailed would probably blow away the computer :)
[00:38] <MK13> Wallace, i can "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb" and it says the ame amount of data copied as the size of the disk
[00:39] <rww> Krstnsn: hmm. You could try unmounting it from GNOME (Places -> Computer, right-click it and click unmount), or from the command-line (sudo umount /dev/sdb1 (for example; use whatever's in gparted).
[00:39] <Stargazer> Mneptok, i personally don't like nVidia. i only got it because it was the same as an ATI and about 40$ cheaper. what was the program?
[00:39] <love> if anyone here is interesting in multimedia production and ubuntu studio didn't work out for them like it didn't for me, check out puredyne. It's upcoming release is based on karmic and comes with RT kernel. Reaaally cool dist.
[00:39] <Wallace> mk13: you've probably knackered the partition table then - try fdisk /dev/sdb
[00:39] <moymoy> MyWay: just uninstall pulseaudio and set alsa to start when you boot
[00:39] <Krstnsn> rww i ended up closing gparted and unmounting the device then pluging it back in. it will now unmount through gparted... thans i had no idea i needed to unmount it first. i really appreciate it.
[00:40] <rww> Krstnsn: You're welcome. Glad I could help :)
[00:40] <MyWay> how to set alsa start?
[00:40] <geek1212121212> does anyone know where I get help cq60-419wm keyboard some keys aparently not maped
[00:40] <edoceo-fluorine> Hey all - I just updated to 9.10 and now my VPN won't start via NetworkManager
[00:40] <Jordan_U> MyWay: moymoy: Alsa starts automatically with or without pulseaudio installed
[00:41] <MyWay> ah
[00:41] <mneptok> Stargazer: nvidia-settings
[00:41] <edoceo-fluorine> It's the "no secrets" issue - I've tried many of the fixes posted on the web with no success - any other ideas?
[00:41] <MyWay> so if i kill pulseaudio i can test if with alsa it works
[00:41] <Krstnsn> rww if i drag the arrow on the left to the right does that mean its going to move the curret info to the back of the drive and the new bits to the front?
[00:41] <love> MyWay: http://ubuntu-ky.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8284273
[00:42] <Krstnsn> rww ive only ever used gnuparted .. but decided to use something graphical this time
[00:42] <Stargazer> Mneptok, that's what i'm using... i think that's what the nvidia-glx package is... and now i don't have any panels. >:(
[00:42] <Hyperlite49491> if i want to install windows 7 on here, but still want my computer to be 50% linux.. how would i do that when i start the installation process?
[00:42] <MK13> Wallace, it says i need to set the number of cylinders O.o
[00:42] <Wallace> hyperlite: partition the disk 50/50 - install windows on one, and ubuntu on the other (nb: paritioning the disk will delete everything)
[00:42] <rww> Krstnsn: If you shrink the partition from the left, it'll move everything over, yes. That tends to take a while (as in, hours, sometimes), by the way.
[00:42] <dshuller> start the ubuntu install disk and choose something like 50%
[00:42] <mneptok> Stargazer: nvidia-glx is a driver. nvidia-settings is a prefpane.
[00:43] <Stargazer> Hyperlite49491, win7 can be installed in a partition unlike XP which used to use the entire drive by default.
[00:43] <geek1212121212> does anyone know where I get help cq60-419wm keyboard some keys aparently not maped
[00:43] <geek1212121212> does anyone know where I get help cq60-419wm keyboard some keys aparently not maped
[00:43] <Wallace> mk13: hmm, you got me there really :\
[00:43] <rww> !repeat | geek1212121212
[00:43] <magick> hi everyone. I'm having trouble with a very slow hard drive on ubuntu 9.10. I just booted from Win7 so I know the drive is fast but for some reason everything is ridiculously slow in ubuntu.. hd parm says read speed is 2MB/s and yet DMA is enabled and there is nothing out of the ordinary that I could tell in dmesg
[00:43] <dshuller> Look at ur hd size b4 u start to install and divide by half
[00:43] <Hyperlite49491> is partitioning the disk hard? and how will i do that? does it give me the option when i'm installing win7?
[00:43] <MK13> how many cylinders would be on a 1 gig flash drive?
[00:43] <Krstnsn> rww so i should just drage the arrow thats on the right over to the left and create the partition in the back and move everything over myself when its done?
[00:43] <geek1212121212> I have.
[00:43] <rww> geek1212121212: anyway. Which keys aren't mapped?
[00:44] <ArtyG> I'm a linux moron, generally. I need to know if anyone knows how I can execute a command while the system is starting (to set my CPU frequency)
[00:44] <Guthur> how do i get a terminal output eg aticonfig --help, to page
[00:44] <Guthur> it is to big for the buffer and i lose the start
[00:44] <s0undt3ch> Wallace: yeah, noticed, was just wondering if it was a programed downtime or something like that
[00:44] <dshuller> look .... select what ever is 50% of ur hd
[00:44] <Stargazer> Mneptok, anyways... i am using nvidia-settings then. thought it was called nvidia-glx. anyways, that 'prefpane' won't allow me to turn the display.
[00:44] <rww> Krstnsn: that should take less time, yes
[00:44] <VCoolio> Guthur: command blah > textfile.txt
[00:44] <mneptok> Guthur: aticonfig --help | less
[00:44] <Wallace> hyperlite: not that i know of - i've never tried in windows, but if you install ubuntu first, you should be asked if you want to partition the disk - nb: this will delete everything on the disk so be sure you don't want to keep anything
[00:44] <edoceo-fluorine> yea guess 9.10 wasn't ready for public consumption yet
[00:45] <Guthur> cheers VCoolio and mneptok
[00:45] <geek1212121212> rww: <> & 456 on numpad to start
[00:45] <Hyperlite49491> ok i'll give it a shot, thanks
[00:45] <Wallace> hyperlite: if you install windows 2nd, then you will need to boot off your ubuntu installer disk and re-install grub
[00:46] <dshuller> well ... ubuntu will ask if you want to partition ur disk prior to instal even if u hv another os on ur dsk
[00:46] <Wallace> hyperlite: actually, that's crap, you probably can partition the disk in the windows installer - ask the boys and girls in #windows to help you with that though
[00:46] <Wilabob> Hi, I just installed ubuntu with my existing xp installation and when I boot it says GRUB loading. error: no such partition

[00:46] <Wallace> wilabob: how many disks & paritions do you have?
[00:46] <flootenkerp> Does anyone know how I can restore my old usplash screen back?
[00:47] <Wilabob> I have 2 disks and 2 partitions on the first one (xp and ubuntu) and one on my smaller hard drive for file transfer between oses

[00:49] <geek1212121212>  rww: <> & 456 on numpad to start
[00:49] <Wallace> wilabob: hmm, k, well your grub config is probably wrong.
[00:49] <[manas]> how to swich off recent open document????
[00:49] <Wallace> wilabob: can you get to your menu.lst on the ubuntu parition?
[00:49] <Wilabob> How can I fix it? Why would it install wrong, I had a previous install that worked fine.
[00:50] <Wilabob> I'm on 9.10 so it doesn't have a menu.lst
[00:50] <Wallace> wilabob: ahh, grub 2
[00:50] <Wilabob> Yep
[00:50] <love> try booting from the disk you installed from and try recovery???

[00:51] <renato> hi guys . i want to know if the fglrx driver from ubuntu official repositories will work with a hd radeon 5850 or i have to download from ati/amd site ?
[00:52] <Wallace> wilabob: I don't know much about grub2, but if you can fiddle with your settings, try some different values for the drives
[00:52] <ChogyDan> Redeemed: maybe get rid of the prerm script?
[00:52] <love> i've read you should use the one from  ubuntu :/
[00:52] <edoceo-fluorine> Now I have to listen to a whole bunch of "that's what you get for free stuff"
[00:52] <MyWay> ok removed pulseaudio, i try restarting
[00:52] <MyWay> thanks
[00:52] <UnixDawg> is there a command to see what service are running at bootup?
[00:52] <Stargazer> Renato, why are you using a 5850 in ubuntu ?
[00:52] <Wilabob> So I should boot with the live cd and try and edit it?
[00:52] <edoceo-fluorine> Guess we should look at different softare
[00:52] <Redeemed> ChogyDan: any idea where it is?
[00:52] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: whats the problem?
[00:52] <Kingoss> hi

[00:54] <flootenkerp> Can someone help me please?
[00:54] <Wallace> edoceo: I assume your config is correct...have you rebooted since updating?
[00:54] <ChogyDan> edoceo-fluorine: I don't know, but I think no secrets means an issue with a password
[00:54] <edoceo-fluorine> Wallace, many times
[00:54] <Stargazer> Renato, i'm using an nVidiot card atm. i've never really used an ATI card in ubuntu/linux.
[00:55] <edoceo-fluorine> There are no passwords / no secret
[00:55] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: hmmm, can you give me the partition layout to?
[00:55] <renato> Stargazer: ok ... thx anyway .

[00:56] <geek1212121212>  I'm just a poor blind slob who wants to get some keys working cq60-419wm
[00:56] <ChogyDan> Redeemed: are you going to reinstall?
[00:56] <edoceo-fluorine> NetworkManger - appears to be crap -
[00:56] <Redeemed> probably
[00:56] <UnixDawg> ok haw do I make it run with out inetd ?
[00:57] <flootenkerp> Anyone?
[00:57] <Redeemed> ChogyDan: I run off of a college network, that is quite horrible, so I think that is how it got corrupted

[01:09] <[manas]> how to swich off recent open document????
[01:09] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: should be blank I thought
[01:09] <[manas]> how to swich off recent open document????
[01:09] <jberry_> peterpants: i think ChogyDan is right. what is the real issue? no sound? which ubuntu vers?
[01:09] <peterpants> jberry_: I'm sorry.  It's working. :] I had the sound plugged into my mobo slot and not my soundcard. No need for configuring anything. However, I assume that I'm running PulseAudio by default? Just for general knowledge
[01:09] <[manas]> how to swich off recent open document????
[01:10] <Jordan_U> !repeat | [manas]
[01:10] <peterpants> jberry_: mobo slot - mobo soundcard
[01:10] <musikgoat> hmm, is security.ubuntu.com down?
[01:10] <Stargazer> For some reason i cannot my panels and gnome-panel isn't working as a command. any ideas?
[01:10] <[manas]> Jordan_U, check my first post
[01:10] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: you may need to chroot into the installed partition
[01:10] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: Ran into a problem... the terminal has a white screen and doesn't show anything,,,
[01:10] <falstaff|h> musikgoat, http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/
[01:11] <ctmjr> !panels | Stargazer
[01:11] <coachz> Can i get my left panel in my file browser to follow my right panel ?
[01:11] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: How do I do that?
[01:11] <musikgoat> falstaff|h: nice, never knew about that...
[01:11] <peterpants> jberry_: the issue was no sound but It's working now. I've had trouble in the past with x-fi not playing but I guess it works out of the box in this version, yay. i'm using 9.10
[01:11] <jberry_> peterpants: not sure how to tell. i'm running pulseaudio. the software is working and controlling the sound which confirms that that's my driver.
[01:12] <geek1212121212> Bigshot what ubuntu version? is it turned on ? Is wireless enabled and does etho work?
[01:12] <materieller> i'm using firefox 3.5.5. can't open flash fullscreen in google chrome either.
[01:13] <jberry_> peterpans: pulseaudio is the default.  i'm very happy w/pulseaudio my audio-hub is finally working (speakers connected via usb) that never worked before under 9.04.
[01:13] <musikgoat> is it true that security.ubuntu.com is an alias of archive.ubuntu.com?
[01:13] <Stargazer> Ctmjr, that didn't work... i'm restarting to see if that does it.
[01:14] <LjL> musikgoat: uh, they're two different sites
[01:14] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: I managed to be able to see the terminal window
[01:14] <geek1212121212> cq60-419wm some keys not work <.>
[01:15] <LjL> musikgoat: guess what, security is even down for me now (while archive isn't)
[01:15] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: is this a new install?  it, er, might, be easier to reinstall.     Anyway.  You need to mount the partition: sudo mkdir /mnt && sudo mount /dev/<your partition location> /mnt
[01:15] <ChogyDan> then, sudo chroot /mnt
[01:15] <musikgoat> LjL: ok, same here :(
[01:15] <mcprtk> umm.. hi people
[01:15] <VCoolio> materieller: have you flashplugin-nonfree installed?
[01:15] <musikgoat> LjL: do you think this is a recent status, or has been for some time?
[01:15] <materieller> let me check
[01:16] <ctmjr> sorry you do need to restart gnome it should be in the factoid
[01:16] <LjL> musikgoat: i don't really know, haven't apt-get updated today. i didn't see anyone complaining here though so far...
[01:16] <mcprtk> does anyone know how to modify gstreamer plugin settings individually?
[01:16] <LjL> musikgoat: actually, someone complained 15 minutes ago
[01:16] <materieller> no i do not
[01:16] <musikgoat> LjL: thanks for checking
[01:16] <materieller> should that fix it then?
[01:16] <gaffo_home> anyone know much about ATI support and multip monitors?
[01:17] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: how do I find my partition location?
[01:17] <VCoolio> materieller: give it a shot, it's what I have (but that's with 32-bit if it matters)
[01:17] <mcprtk> @gaffo, I have ATI card but havent tried connecting 2 monitors with ubuntu
[01:17] <materieller> i'm on 64 bit. just installed it. let me check now
[01:17] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: do you know which partition you installed to?
[01:17] <LjL> musikgoat: checking better, it's been down for at least about two hours
[01:18] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: I know it's the second one but what do I call it?
[01:18] <musikgoat> LjL: are you aware of a contact to alert to this issue?
[01:18] <musikgoat> or any mirrors
[01:18] <fcuk112> !cn
[01:18] <LjL> musikgoat: no, but i'm pretty sure they have alarm bells going off...
[01:18] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: probably /dev/sda2
[01:18] <LjL> musikgoat: i don't think there are mirrors, contrary to the other repositories
[01:18] <SeaPhor> many thanks to "arand" from #ubuntu for trying to help, to no avail tho,,, but he tried, and if i find the issue i will post it
[01:19] <materieller> VCoolio: works now. Thanks a lot.
[01:19] <VCoolio> materieller: cool, happy I could help
[01:20] <[manas]> Jordan_U, check my first post
[01:20] <[manas]> how to swich off recent open document????
[01:20] <researcher> :)Hello everybody. How r u? I am just new. My second attempt to chat
[01:20] <mcprtk> hi researcher
[01:20] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: it says cannot create that directory /mnt file exists and if I get rid of the mkdir part I get mount you must specify the file system.. What now?
[01:20] <researcher> hi
[01:20] <CShadowRun> researcher: what happened to your first? :P
[01:21] <Jordan_U> [manas]: Please stop
[01:21] <researcher> did not get how to start with
[01:21] <mcprtk> lol, im also having the same problem, this is my 1st tym....
[01:21] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: sudo mkdir /media/install && sudo mount /dev/sda2 /media/install
[01:21] <[manas]> Jordan_U, sor was wrong post
[01:22] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: Still says I have to specify the file system... I think it's ext4
[01:24] <ChogyDan> I guess so, Im not sure the syntax though
[01:24] <fcuk112> anyone who has used pps in ubuntu and speaks english who can help me?
[01:24] <coachz> Can i get my left panel in my file browser to follow my right panel ?
[01:25] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: What?
[01:25] <flootenkerp> Hi, I'm trying to add a file to the folder in file system called root but I get this: you do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "root"
[01:26] <chea> !sudo | flootenkerp
[01:26] <chea> This should help you
[01:26] <the_lord> Hello! anyone here with karmic iowait problems?
[01:26] <flootenkerp> Oh. Thanks :p
[01:26] <fcuk112> anyone who has used pps in ubuntu and speaks english who can help me?  or can anyone tell me how i can get totem firefox plugin to work?
[01:26] <the_lord> or with any way to solve them?
[01:27] <sileni> hello eveyrone i have a windows xp iso that i want to burn to usb drive and install through that, i'm on ubuntu what method would you guys suggest?
[01:27] <Wallace> how do i delete the route "<IP_ADDRESS>     <IP_ADDRESS>         <IP_ADDRESS>     U     2      0        0 wlan0"  (i tried route del <IP_ADDRESS> and it said "SIOCDELRT: No such process")
[01:27] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: try adding -t ext4
[01:28] <ChogyDan> to the mount command
[01:28] <researcher> how to get EDUBUNTU in local language? Somebody to guide  me?
[01:29] <researcher> how to get EDUBUNTU in local language?
[01:29] <flootenkerp> Hm, I'm still not sure how to put a file into the root folder
[01:29] <chea> flootenkerp: Alright
[01:29] <VCoolio> researcher: download, burn, load and install and you'll be asked for what language to use; also you can install language packs after installation
[01:29] <chea> flootenkerp: I'll try and help you out. Do you know the path to where you want the file to be moved?
[01:30] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: now it's giving me wrong fs type, bad option.......... very long error
[01:30] <flootenkerp> I'm just trying to put one file into root.
[01:30] <researcher> vocoolio thanks
[01:30] <chea> Root as in the /root?
[01:30] <flootenkerp> Yeah, I believe so.
[01:30] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: maybe try ext3?
[01:30] <flootenkerp> The file I want to move in there is located on my desktop
[01:30] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: nope
[01:30] <VCoolio> flootenkerp: sudo mv ~/Desktop/file /root
[01:31] <chea> flootenkerp: I will pm you
[01:31] <chea> Or that
[01:31] <flootenkerp> Alright, thanks.
[01:31] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: can you access it through the places menu?
[01:31] <Wilabob> yeah
[01:31] <materieller> Wilabob: are you trying to mount a windows partition?
[01:31] <Wilabob> no
[01:31] <VCoolio> flootenkerp: except for a .gtkrc-2.0 I never moved a file to /root, so: what are you doing?
[01:32] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: then it must already be mounted.  Just chroot into whatever mount point it is using.  Something under /media
[01:32] <flootenkerp> Well, I'm trying to edit my usplash
[01:32] <flootenkerp> And I'm doing so with startup manager
[01:33] <flootenkerp> But it only looks for .so files in file system, and root
[01:33] <Wilabob> how do I find what the mount point is?
[01:33] <flootenkerp> So I want to put the so file in either one of those directories.
[01:33] <VCoolio> flootenkerp: hmm, that should be /usr/lib/usplash I think, in pre-Karmic distros
[01:33] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: try mount
[01:33] <surgy> sup guys
[01:33] <surgy> hey guys i need some 32bit libraries namely: libgtk-1.2.so.0
[01:34] <surgy> where would i find it?
[01:34] <VCoolio> flootenkerp: and didn't startupmanager have an option to add usplash themes?
[01:34] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: I mounted it... now it's on my desktop
[01:34] <flootenkerp> How would I place the file in there?
[01:34] <materieller> surgy did you try sudo apt-get install libgtk-1.2
[01:34] <VCoolio> flootenkerp: the same, but now: sudo mv /root/file /usr/lib/usplash
[01:34] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: yes, now run mount, and see where it is mounted
[01:34] <flootenkerp> Also, the previous terminal command didn't work when I tried to move the file in there
[01:35] <surgy> materieller: yea im on 64 bit and i need the 32 bit version in my /usr/lib32/ folder
[01:35] <VCoolio> flootenkerp: try gksudo nautilus , you'll have a gui file manager with root permissions
[01:35] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: It gives me a big block of text... What am I looking for?
[01:35] <materieller> surgy: hmm. not sure where to find that
[01:36] <zerq_> there's no way to make the gtk file open dialog display as icons / thumbnails..? :/
[01:36] <zerq_> that.. sucks
[01:36] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: Nevermind found it
[01:36] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: /dev/sda2 on /media/somehting   mk
[01:36] <bcj> If my root filesystem is mounted read-only, can I forcibly remount it as read/write?   "mount -t ext2 /dev/sda1 /" doesn't work as the filesystem is already mounted read-only.
[01:37] <freze> Ive been using ubuntu for more than 2 years and I just recently found out that im running under cpu-throttling on 50%. Wtf! Is this setting default because i found this on my laptop to!?
[01:37] <mzawieska> hey guys I am havin problem with my ubuntu when i restart it i am getting error
[01:37] <Pricey> freze: it'll go up as required
[01:37] <flootenkerp> ThNKA, IT WORKED vCOOLIO
[01:37] <bcj> freze: CPU throttling _should_ be dynamic.
[01:37] <mzawieska> usplash setting mode 1152x864 failed
[01:37] <Ahadiel> freite, It changes depending on your CPU load.
[01:37] <flootenkerp> oops, sorry CAPS.
[01:37] <Ahadiel> freze*
[01:37] <surgy> can someone help me find a 32bit library?
[01:37] <VCoolio> flootenkerp: nice, have fun
[01:37] <mzawieska> usplash Using mode 1024x760
[01:38] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: I did it!! Now what do I need to do?
[01:38] <flootenkerp> Alright, thanks.
[01:38] <chea>  flootenkerp awesome!
[01:38] <flootenkerp> I'll go check it out now. Thanks for the help guys.
[01:38] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: ok, so once you got the chroot going, run update-grub
[01:38] <freze> Aha, but now Ive changed it to static full, and its much faster I think, especially the gui
[01:38] <mzawieska> mount of file failed a maintence shell will now started control d will terminate this shell and re-type
[01:38] <mzawieska> can some1 help me with this
[01:39] <surgy> cant i just add a 32 bit repo or something? i really need help havnt beenable to find any info at all anywhere
[01:39] <N3OInc> Alright! I think I am going to put the KEyboard question to bed for a bit.
[01:40] <kiwifunk> where can i download the alternate .iso?
[01:40] <N3OInc> Surgy: Why wouldn't you already have a 32bit Repo?
[01:40] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: Ok it gave me grub-probe: error: cannot find device for /.
[01:40] <surgy> N3OInc: because im using the 64bit version of the operating system
[01:40] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: you may have to mount /dev and /sys
[01:40] <sileni> cd #linux
[01:40] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: and maybe /proc too
[01:41] <sileni> just kidding >.>
[01:41] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: Uggg, How?
[01:41] <mzawieska> any1 could help me with my problem
[01:41] <mzawieska> hey guys I am havin problem with my ubuntu when i restart it i am getting error
[01:41] <mzawieska> any1 could help me with my problem

[01:41] <mzawieska> mount of file failed a maintence shell will now started control d will terminate this shell and re-type
[01:41] <FloodBot4> mzawieska: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:41] <sileni> mzawieska: suicide is always a solution
[01:41] <kiwifunk> where can i download the alternate ubuntu .iso?
[01:41] <mzawieska> yea i know
[01:41] <mzawieska> i wish i could
[01:41] <ChogyDan> !torrents | kiwifunk
[01:42] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: Gives me mount: can't find /dev in /ect/fstab or /ect/mtab
[01:42] <kiwifunk> ChogyDan: thanks !
[01:42] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: ok, just exit the chroot with exit
[01:43] <Wallace> anybody know how i can force samba to talk over my vpn?  it seems to ignore the routing table and uses a different network interface

[01:43] <sileni> thank you come again!
[01:43] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: sudo mount /dev/proc /media/your_drive/dev      etc etc
[01:43] <mzawieska> please help guys
[01:44] <N3OInc> Surgy:  You check over here at all? http://rpm.pbone.net/
[01:44] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: oops, should be sudo mount /dev /media/your_drive/dev
[01:44] <VCoolio> kiwifunk: torrents for alternate cd here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt
[01:44] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: then sub in /proc for /dev and then /sys too
[01:44] <musikgoat> sileni: in ubuntu? use the USB Startup Disk creator
[01:44] <sileni> musikgoat: that only works for ubuntu .iso?
[01:44] <musikgoat> sileni: nope
[01:45] <kiwifunk> VCoolio: thank you!
[01:45] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: now it says mount: /dev is not a block device
[01:45] <musikgoat> sileni: as far as i've understood, its a front end to unetbootin
[01:46] <sileni> musikgoat: , it won't allow it
[01:46] <sileni> musikgoat: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1147460
[01:46] <sda> hi all
[01:46] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: hmmm, I don't know then.  its strange that your mounts are just picking up the types
[01:47] <musikgoat> sileni: pardon me... I'd go for unetbootin then
[01:47] <sileni> musikgoat: you are pardoned
[01:47] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: should I just try installing again? Or will it just do the same thing? BTW I'm using the alternate cd
[01:48] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: really?  so, you don't have a livecd environment?
[01:48] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: I'm using the live cd now but I used the alternate cd to install
[01:48] <sda> hi all from italy
[01:49] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: Because the live cd takes sooo long
[01:49] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: actually, maybe try the instructions here: http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-recover-grub2-after-windows.html
[01:49] <flootenkerp> Back, anyone here use startup manager?

[01:51] <Cuddles> can anyone advise me to a ubuntu distro for my old compaq system, I've run 9x and 7.10. 7.10 hangs on install (looking for cd or something like that)

[01:54] <Cuddles> can anyone advise me to a ubuntu distro for my old compaq system, I've run 9x and 7.10. 7.10 hangs on install (looking for cd or something like that)

[01:55] <Cpudan80_> sorry bout that
[01:55] <Cpudan80_> Cuddles: did you post your specs?
[01:55] <FloodBot4> !netsplit
[01:55] <trenton> I have Ubuntu 9.10 and it seems to runs in a very jerky manner (i.e open rhythmbox and it take a couple seconds for everything to catch up.
[01:55] <musikgoat> Cuddles: you could try Hardy LTS (8.04)
[01:55] <Cpudan80_> my net hiccuped
[01:55] <Sylphid|netbook> Cuddles, if your computer is old enough it may require a 2.4 kernel ... i think 6.06 might have been the last 2.4 kernel release
[01:55] <Cuddles> no i didnt
[01:55] <Hellow> Wow, nice netsplit.
[01:55]  * chea cuddles Cuddles
[01:55] <dshuller> .
[01:55] <dshuller> .
[01:55] <dshuller> .
[01:55] <Cuddles> It was running the newest version of ubuntu
[01:55] <Cuddles> so 8.04
[01:56] <musikgoat> Cuddles: newest is 9.04
[01:56] <musikgoat> sorry 9.10
[01:56] <trenton>  I have Ubuntu 9.10 and it seems to runs in a very jerky manner (i.e open rhythmbox and it take a couple seconds for everything to catch up.)
[01:56] <Cuddles> yeah tit was running that
[01:56] <Cuddles> but I couldnt get vnc to run
[01:56] <Cuddles> at all, also samba wouldn't work for the life of it.
[01:56] <musikgoat> Cuddles: meaning you couldn't vnc into the box correctly?
[01:57] <Cuddles> yea
[01:57] <Cuddles> I could ssh but nothing else
[01:57] <dshuller> @trenton Please update.
[01:57] <musikgoat> Cuddles: hmm, could you vnc into the box and only get the desktop and not be able to click anywhere?
[01:57] <Cuddles> nope, vnc wouldnt do anything
[01:58] <Cuddles> but i could use putty to ssh in
[01:58] <musikgoat> oh
[01:58] <Cuddles> and that was fine
[01:58] <musikgoat> wierd
[01:58] <Cuddles> pretty odd
[01:58] <Squideshi> I'm running gnome-system-log - Version 2.28.1 on Ubuntu 9.10. Anyone know why I don't have a calendar in the System Log Viewer?
[01:58] <Squideshi> The documentation says there should be one.
[01:58] <musikgoat> Cuddles: in any event, maybe hardy would be better for you
[01:58] <flootenkerp> Anyone here use Startup-manager setup?
[01:58] <dshuller> Yeah ... linux lags behind
[01:59] <Cuddles> Ill give it a shot
[01:59] <Cuddles> http://releases.ubuntu.com/hardy/ this is the address i googled
[01:59] <Travis> hello A/all
[01:59] <musikgoat> that'd be it
[01:59] <electricTape> hey guys.  I'm using Ubuntu.  Is there a way to align your desktop icons to the right hand side of the screen?
[01:59] <dshuller> Hello!
[01:59] <Cuddles> should i just try to alt install or the live cd?
[02:00] <dshuller> Yeah, just do it!!@
[02:00] <musikgoat> alt install is safer if there are unknown graphics issues
[02:00] <armence> Hey all, I have a 64 bit desktop running ubuntu and I need to build and run some 32 bits software. How can I do that? (The software is compiled with g++ and linked with ld)
[02:00] <flootenkerp> Anyone here use Startup-manager?
[02:00] <Travis> Ubuntu is making me want to pull my hair out.  I have a laptop it's on that has an external monitor port.  How can I make it go to both?  I've tried the stuff on the forums.  It either goes to the external or internal, never both.
[02:00] <dshuller> Install it ... do it!!
[02:00] <trenton> so is the lag normal????
[02:01] <dshuller> do it ... right now!
[02:01] <musikgoat> what lag?
[02:01] <dshuller> install it ... right now
[02:01] <Squideshi> Travis: It's largely dependent on your graphics chipset. Which do you have?
[02:01] <Travis> the laptop I have is a Dell Inspiron 8200
[02:01] <trenton> (PREVIOUS POST)  I have Ubuntu 9.10 and it seems to runs in a very jerky manner (i.e open rhythmbox and it take a couple seconds for everything to catch up.
[02:02] <Travis> i am unsure of the chipset
[02:02] <Travis> the Nvidia external monitor support takes a GLX driver
[02:02] <meatbun> what's the name of java plug for firefox? package name, apt-get
[02:02] <musikgoat> yeah, try turning off desktop effects
[02:02] <sda19861> hi all

[02:03] <dshuller> hi
[02:03] <armence> Am I beyond help ? ;)
[02:03] <musikgoat> yes
[02:03] <dshuller> hi
[02:03] <musikgoat> dshuller: really? troll much?
[02:03] <armence> Also, my numpad does not work
[02:03] <flootenkerp> Anyone here use Startup-manager setup? I'm trying to edit my usplash but it keeps using the default one.  How can I do that? (The software is compiled with g++ and linked with ld)
[02:06] <N3OInc> Hey is Surgy still here?
[02:06] <N3OInc> surgy: Someone else has like the same issue
[02:06] <Squideshi> Travis: What do you see for video when you run lspci?
[02:06] <surgy> yes
[02:06] <surgy> surgy is here
[02:07] <N3OInc> Yo.
[02:07] <flootenkerp> Anyone here use Startup-manager setup? I'm trying to edit my usplash but it keeps using the default one. I renamed mines to the default one, but it only worked when shutting down, not logging back on.
[02:07] <N3OInc> I think both of you are looking for the same things
[02:07] <QuestionMark> how can i install the guest Linux Adititons for Virtual Box in Karmic ? its a .run file
[02:07] <Squideshi> Travis: Try "lspci | grep VGA".
[02:07] <Cuddles> there is 1400 people in here and like 10 peoiple talking?
[02:07] <flootenkerp> !startup-manager
[02:07] <N3OInc> Surgy: Did you try that pbone site?
[02:08] <Travis> let me log back in
[02:08] <ChogyDan> armence: I kinda wish I knew the answer.  It might be that you have to put together a boostrapped chroot
[02:08] <N3OInc> I know its not a Repo, but it may have files inside packages you could mess with
[02:08] <musikgoat> QuestionMark: there is a shell script on the iso iirc
[02:09] <Timmymayes> anyone here familiar with adding the software source for xbmc?
[02:09] <QuestionMark> [musikgoat] thanks just need sudo sh .FileName.run ¿right?
[02:09] <Travis> give me one Squid
[02:09] <Travis> am waiting on the dang system to catch up
[02:09] <musikgoat> QuestionMark: no, try sudo sh autorun.sh

[02:10] <flootenkerp> I'm sorry for my repetition, but I need a little help with setting a usplash on startup manager
[02:10] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: Back... I tried to follow the guide but on the second command it gives me this mount: mount point /mnt/dev does not exist
[02:10] <flootenkerp> Can someone please help?
[02:10] <meatbun> what's the name of java plug for firefox? package name, apt-get
[02:11] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: that just means that you have to create the directory
[02:11] <dshuller_> @maybe ... what is ur qustion flootenkerp?
[02:11] <ChogyDan> meatbun: sudo-java6-plugin
[02:11] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: so mkdir /mnt/dev
[02:11] <ChogyDan> mm hm
[02:12] <musikgoat> QuestionMark: but yes, that autorun seems to just check for your arch and calls the proper .run file
[02:12] <meatbun> ChogyDan, i just install a sun java plugin, it no work..
[02:12] <meatbun> i am searching for a 2nd one
[02:12] <dshuller_> >---> flootenkerp
[02:12] <flootenkerp> dshuller: I want to change my usplash
[02:12] <musikgoat> QuestionMark: hmm, it seems it does more as well
[02:12] <flootenkerp> That's it.
[02:13] <QuestionMark> [musikgoat] installing ... im need a few minutes
[02:13] <ChogyDan> meatbun: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras sun-java6-plugin && sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun && sudo apt-get remove mozilla-plugin-gnash swfdec-mozilla
[02:13] <flootenkerp> But whenever I change it, it keeps reverting to the other one.
[02:13] <flootenkerp> I don't know why.
[02:13] <Travis> Squideshi, I had to uninstall the dang driver to make the laptop work where i can read it.
[02:13] <dshuller_> No ... shuller does not want to change usplash
[02:13] <Travis> am waiting for reboot
[02:13] <dshuller_> reboot
[02:14] <Squideshi> Travis: No problem.
[02:14] <flootenkerp> Why?
[02:14] <flootenkerp> It didn't work.
[02:14] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: wait, you need to use the directory that your partition is mounted in place of /mnt
[02:14] <flootenkerp> I already rebooted.
[02:14] <dshuller_> reboot
[02:14] <dshuller_> force a rebut
[02:15] <chatZilla> why is ubuntu so ugly?
[02:15] <flootenkerp> I already did, that isn't gonna do anything...
[02:15] <GhotiPhud> Hello I have a problem with fuzzy sound.  I have an HDA Audio card
[02:15] <QuestionMark> rebooting guest
[02:15] <dshuller_> Ubuntu is not ugly.
[02:15] <nonama> ugly is only our mindset only .... :D
[02:15] <flootenkerp> I'm sorry for my repetition, but I need a little help with setting a usplash on startup manager
[02:15] <chatZilla> the theme and wallpaper is hideous.
[02:16] <flootenkerp> Can someone help?
[02:16] <sebsebseb> chatZilla: many other distros look better by default
[02:16] <chatZilla> I stopped recommending ubuntu to people because they've all been turned off by the user interface
[02:16] <flootenkerp> then CHANGE IT
[02:16] <chatZilla> linux mint looks good
[02:16] <Travis> user interface?  it's good
[02:16] <flootenkerp> It has other themes you know.
[02:16] <sebsebseb> chatZilla: Mandriva 2010 Gnome looks rather good
[02:16] <Travis> reminds me of Windows
[02:16] <mneptok> !offtopic | chatZilla
[02:16] <Travis> oops, yes I had to say that
[02:17] <chatZilla> why is it brown? Their logo is yellow, orange, and red not brown.
[02:17] <chatZilla> brown and orange, yuck!
[02:17] <flootenkerp> I need a little help with setting a usplash on startup manager
[02:17] <Squideshi> chatZilla: Are you volunteering to create new artwork?
[02:17] <chatZilla> it's like the Cleveland browns of the nfl
[02:17] <sebsebseb> chatZilla: your not the first person to say stuff like that
[02:18] <sebsebseb> chatZilla: that the theme isn't good,  I have a feeling it might be quite different in 10.04, but probably not
[02:18] <chatZilla> their homepage is much better now
[02:19] <mneptok> do i *really* need the !offtopic factoid again? really?
[02:19] <coachz> can the left pane of the file browser expand like XP does ?
[02:19] <mneptok> c'mon people.
[02:19] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: w00t! It let me run the update-grub cmd but at the end it said cannot find the list of permissions
[02:19] <coachz> like a tree view
[02:19] <flootenkerp> Anyone here use Startup-manager setup? I'm trying to edit my usplash but it keeps using the default one. I renamed mines to the default one, but it only worked when shutting down, not logging back on.
[02:19] <Squideshi> Travis: Still rebooting?
[02:19] <sebsebseb> flootenkerp: Which version of Ubuntu?
[02:19] <Travis> yes
[02:19] <flootenkerp> 9.04
[02:19] <Travis> i think i borked it again
[02:20] <sebsebseb> flootenkerp: ok
[02:20] <sebsebseb> flootenkerp: you can for example install the kubuntu boot up screen
[02:20] <wgrant> coachz: At the top of the side pane, click the little dropdown (it probable says 'Places'). Change it to 'Tree'
[02:20] <sebsebseb> flootenkerp: and then use startup manager to change to that one
[02:20] <Travis> yup, i gotta go reinstall it for the 3rd time today
[02:20] <Travis> brb
[02:20] <Travis> this time i know it willw ork
[02:20] <coachz> wgrant hi five !
[02:20] <flootenkerp> Yeah, but the problem is the .so file reverts to the default one
[02:20] <cheri703> coachz: click where it says "Places" in the left panel, there are several options, one is "Tree"
[02:20] <coachz> thanks
[02:20] <cheri703> bah, was slow
[02:20] <coachz> perfect !
[02:20] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: erm, hmmm,  I don't know
[02:21] <sebsebseb> flootenkerp: you could also try removing the default, and then I assume it will go on the kubuntu,  but I would just keep them both installed
[02:21] <mstrzele> Hi all! Why security.ubuntu.com doesn't working?
[02:21] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: is it reinstall time?
[02:21] <wgrant> mstrzele: Sysadmins are on it.
[02:21] <sebsebseb> flootenkerp: still on 9.04?  is it, because 9.10's boot up isn't like 9.04 at all? or?
[02:21] <flootenkerp> Well, like I said I renamed mines to the default ones name and renamed the default
[02:21] <wgrant> mstrzele: Should be OK in a few minutes.
[02:21] <mstrzele> OK. Thx.
[02:21] <the_lord> I'm having some troubles, when I'm copying large amount of data my system becomes unresponsive
[02:22] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: did all the mounts work?  did you switch to your partition instead of the /mnt?
[02:22] <flootenkerp> I used 9.10. Went to slow for me
[02:22] <flootenkerp> And was a little to buggy
[02:22] <Squideshi> the_lord: Did you check your log files?
[02:22] <the_lord> is there any way to fix this?
[02:22] <sebsebseb> flootenkerp: to buggy when it came to what for you?
[02:22] <aspyrides> hello there! its my first time here and i want to make a question about an ubuntu installation...can you be kind and help me please? :)
[02:22] <aliendude5300> Hi, I need some help. I recently installed Windows 7, and it broke my Ubuntu bootloader. :(
[02:22] <sebsebseb> !ask |  aspyrides
[02:22] <the_lord> Squideshi, yes
[02:22] <flootenkerp> Eh, moving files
[02:22] <flootenkerp> Renaming files
[02:22] <sebsebseb> aliendude5300: Ubuntu 9.10 yes?
[02:22] <flootenkerp> Normal things bugged up.
[02:23] <Squideshi> the_lord: See any entries that look suspicious?
[02:23] <userone1> i have some short (<5min) audio files in mp3 and ogg format. also, i need to create some original music. which is the best music app for ubuntu; ardour, audacity or rosegarden? and which of these are supported by ubuntu?
[02:23] <aliendude5300> sebsebseb: Yeah,
[02:23] <sebsebseb> aliendude5300: Clean install or upgrade?
[02:23] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: Yes no error on mounting
[02:23] <the_lord> Squideshi, nothing unusual there, the iowait of my CPU is huge
[02:23] <aliendude5300> sebsebseb: clean install.
[02:23] <flootenkerp> Anyways, could someone just tell me how I could edit my usplash
[02:23] <sebsebseb> aliendude5300: ok so you got Grub 2 then unless you changed that
[02:23] <sebsebseb> !grub2 |  aliendude5300
[02:23] <webbb82> has anyone tried out lucid lynch
[02:23]  * ChogyDan throws his hands up into the air< Wilabob
[02:23] <webbb82> lucid linx
[02:23] <sebsebseb> webbb82: alpha 1 isn't even out yet
[02:23] <aliendude5300> I know what grub is. How do I get it back?
[02:24] <arand_> webbb82: #ubuntu+1
[02:24] <webbb82> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/
[02:24] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: Let me try all the cmds again...
[02:24] <webbb82> then whats that
[02:24] <Squideshi> aliendude5300: Check that wiki page.
[02:24] <sebsebseb> aliendude5300: not sure with Grub 2, I guess that page has your answer though
[02:24] <aspyrides> I have skype installed, and when i speak with someone, they can see me on their computer when i put the camera on but i cannot get their picture..does anyone know how to fix this?
[02:24] <flootenkerp> anybody?
[02:24] <Squideshi> aliendude5300: It can reinstall itself, but you have to know how. Hence, the wiki page...
[02:24] <aliendude5300> I used to know how to do it on a Live CD with GRUB1...
[02:24] <waiteseth> I think I may have found the wrong channel. Does anyone know where I might find a channel here for a more beginner oriented conversation?
[02:24] <webbb82> so what is thias  http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/
[02:24] <aliendude5300> I'd assume it would be a similar process
[02:25] <kwyjibo> anyone know of a thing to make an analog gamepad behave like a pointing stick nub found on some laptops?
[02:25] <the_lord> Squideshi, any ideas?
[02:25] <wgrant> webbb82: A pre-alpha release which probably won't work.
[02:25] <cheri703> try #ubuntu-beginner-help (I think)
[02:25] <flootenkerp> Does someone know how I could edit my usplash?
[02:25] <aliendude5300> Unfortunately since I'm stuck on winows, I can't even chroot into my installation :(
[02:25] <waiteseth> Thanks.
[02:25] <webbb82> where do i get the karmic koala daily build
[02:25] <webbb82> i cant find it anywhere
[02:25] <Razass> Could someone point me in the right direction of logging into the 9.10 terminal on a comp on my local network from a windows machine - I am attempting to use PuTTY but it won't connect.....thx
[02:25] <Pricey> !usplash | flootenkerp
[02:25] <sebsebseb> webbb82: Karmic is out now
[02:25] <wgrant> webbb82: You don't. There aren't Karmic dailies any more.
[02:25] <Pricey> !download | webbb82
[02:25] <sebsebseb> webbb82: Karmic is 9.10
[02:26] <aliendude5300> webbb82: That's because there is a final build
[02:26] <CyL> Hi, I'll give some presentations regardinng hash function security, and I'd like to reproduce the hashes listed in the shadow password, how could I do that?
[02:26] <aspyrides> !ask I have skype installed, and when i speak with someone, they can see me on their computer when i put the camera on but i cannot get their picture..does anyone know how to fix this?

[02:27] <userone1> which editor does ubunut support? from synaptic there doesnt seem to be any support for ardour, audacity or rosegarden by canonical
[02:27] <aliendude5300> Is there anyway to use chroot from a windows install? I dont want to waste a CD. I always install with the Alternative CD, so I only have that.
[02:27] <Travis> Squideshi, here is the video card in it:  NVIDIA GeForce4 440 Go
[02:27] <Travis> ATI Mobility RADEON 9000
[02:27] <electricTape> hi guys.  New Ubuntu user here.  How do I configure my taskbar so that windows of the same program are grouped together?
[02:27] <Squideshi> the_lord: Have you tried running top to see which process is near the top?
[02:27] <aliendude5300> Then again, it might be possible to use chroot from the alternative CD...
[02:27] <Squideshi> Travis: What's the output from "lspci | grep VGA"?
[02:27] <wgrant> userone1: Canonical does not provide support for any audio editor that I know of.
[02:27] <GhotiPhud> Hello I have a problem with fuzzy sound.  I have an HDA Audio card.  It has never been this bad until the current version
[02:27] <Travis> i can't get that.
[02:27] <wgrant> userone1: However, why are you concerned about that?
[02:27] <Travis> it was so screwed, i had to reformat it and am reinstalling
[02:28] <Travis> wait
[02:28] <Squideshi> Travis: You'll need that. The "generic" name won't give you enough information.
[02:28] <the_lord> Squideshi, none, the problem is not cpu load, it's iowait
[02:28] <Kudi> how do i hide my ip address
[02:28] <wgrant> Kudi: In what context?
[02:29] <userone1> wgrant: just a nice to have. its always good to know security and bug fixes are available easily
[02:29] <Kudi> wgrant: i want unlimited megavideo.....they limit your viewing time and they check by using your ip address
[02:29] <Squideshi> the_lord: So the CPU is sitting waiting for I/O to complete? Where are you seeing the statistic?
[02:29] <Travis> i don't need to install it
[02:29] <Travis> i can run Ubuntu live to find out
[02:29] <Travis> dee dee dee!
[02:29] <aspyrides> anyone/

[02:30] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: I got a little furthur... It says there's a problem with my device.map How do I go about fixing it?
[02:30] <ChogyDan> Krstnsn: yeah.  shrinks and moves take forever, since all the files have to be moved about
[02:30] <CyL> Could someone would please help me figuring how the hash values in shadow file are computated?
[02:30] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: what is the problem?  you just have to edit device.map
[02:31] <Squideshi> the_lord: Sorry, I don't know enough about your issue to help.
[02:31] <Krstnsn> i just wish gparted has an estimated time or progress bar or something. just sort of left in the dark to when itll be done.

[02:33] <Krstnsn> mechdave: i have issues with brasero not with an external
[02:33] <Keplerk> yes i try it but in windows networks dont appear anything
[02:33] <Krstnsn> it ALWAYS error at the end of a brun but the burn is always ok.

[02:34] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: Any ideas?
[02:34] <Travis> Squideshi:  nVidia Corporation NV17 GeFroce4 440 Go
[02:34] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: I dunno.  Did you get an error? or did you just get a warning?
[02:34] <Travis> what the?
[02:34] <Travis> Squideshi, you there?
[02:35] <Travis> Squideshi:  nVidia Corporation NV17 GeFroce4 440 Go
[02:35] <mechdave> It seems as if cdrecord is broken, my burner won't mount a blank disk
[02:36] <Krstnsn> mechdave: have you seen if the same issues lies in with k3b too?
[02:36] <Squideshi> Travis: There's no PCI ID or anything in the output from "lspci | grep VGA"?
[02:36] <mechdave> Krstnsn, I don't know, I don't run KDE
[02:36] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: yeah, I think I would need to see the error
[02:36] <mechdave> Anyone had problems with burning in k3b?
[02:37] <Krstnsn> mechdave: i figured. its what i use on my gnome cause brasero doesnt have enough features.
[02:37] <ubuntu> Hi, is there something wrong with the radeon driver? I have a 9250 and compiz is suddenly mind boggeling slow in comparison with 9.04
[02:37] <musikgoat> QuestionMark: did you reboot or restart X after installing?
[02:37] <ChogyDan> mechdave: works for me  (im using gnome)
[02:37] <Wilabob> it says installation finished. no error reported. this is the contents of the device map (all ready told you) check if this is correct or not. if any of the lines is incorrect. fix it and re-run the script 'grub-install' and when it when it first runs it gives me the partition error... This is the cmd grub-install --recheck /dev/sda
[02:37] <promiscuousmode> silly question: i installed ubuntu server (just downloaded from ubuntu.com), does it not contain a GUI? Once logged in, I get a CLI -- how do I start the GUI?
[02:38] <N3OInc> startx
[02:38] <musikgoat> promiscuousmode: ubuntu server doesn't come with a gui by default
[02:38] <rampage73> anyone got an aspire one ZG5 netbook internal 3g connection working and want to share how to step by step?
[02:38] <bastidrazor> promiscuousmode: there is no gui in the server edition unless you install ubuntu-desktop
[02:38] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: yeah, that is fine.  It always says that.  Yours looks good AFAIK
[02:38] <rampage73> oh i am using karmic
[02:38] <N3OInc> ^ What they said
[02:38] <promiscuousmode> musikgoat: where do I download it from?
[02:38] <mechdave> ChogyDan, Have you updated in the last 24 hours?
[02:38] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: so I should try a reboot?
[02:38] <musikgoat> promiscuousmode: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[02:38] <ChogyDan> mechdave: yeah, but I havent got any k3b updates I don't think
[02:38] <arand_> promiscuousmode: you'd have to install it.
[02:39] <mechdave> ChogyDan, you are using k3b in gome?
[02:39] <ChogyDan> mechdave: yeah
[02:39] <Travis> Squideshi, that IS what that command spit out
[02:39] <promiscuousmode> musikgoat: ok, but I'm having problems even enabling my wireless card... any way for me to download it from here (windows) and then run from within the gui?
[02:39] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: yeah
[02:39]  * mechdave opens up a terminal and types...
[02:39] <QuestionMark> [musikgoat] thanks so much, bye
[02:39] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: Okay here goes...
[02:39] <Travis> Squideshi:  nVidia Corporation NV17 GeFroce4 440 Go rev a3
[02:39] <mechdave> ChogyDan, Thanks, be back let you know the results
[02:39] <musikgoat> promiscuousmode: not easily, you could download the ubuntu desktop edition
[02:39] <bastidrazor> mechdave: all the libraries and such take up about 180MB.. not that much and k3b has a better UI
[02:40] <arand_> musikgoat: is that how to do it proper? don't you install just gnome, gdm, and stuff if you want gui server?
[02:40] <Squideshi> Travis: Hmmm... There's usually a PCI ID out front. For example: 00:02.0
[02:40] <mechdave> My burner is toasted in brasero, so no other choice really
[02:40] <promiscuousmode> musikgoat i see... no easy way to do it from within the server? i can plug in wired i guess the eth0 is working
[02:40] <Squideshi> Travis: Have you tried #nvidia ?
[02:40] <musikgoat> arand_: ubuntu-desktop is a meta package that contains those packages
[02:40] <musikgoat> promiscuousmode: thats the easiest method
[02:40] <musikgoat> go wired
[02:41] <promiscuousmode> ok, after i do the sudo apt-get, once it's downloaded and installed, i just use "startx" to get into it?
[02:41] <progre55> hi people! I have karmic installed, and trying to use empathy. I had the empathy icon on the top-right corner (with the flashy envelope sign), but then accidentially I "removed it from panel". Now I run it, but when I close the window, I cant see it anymore, although it's running. Any suggestions, please?
[02:41] <arand_> musikgoat: yea, but it will pull in the whole desktop installation, and I'm not sure that's wanted if you want a server, hmm?
[02:41] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: Nope didn't work
[02:41] <progre55> and the same has happened to pidgin now
[02:41] <mechdave> Here is the dmesg for the problem --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/325022/
[02:41] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: Now it's reinstall time
[02:41] <musikgoat> arand_: i wouldn't suggest your method because you don't know if you are getting all that is needed for a good desktop env
[02:42] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: ya
[02:42] <musikgoat> arand_: but to each their own
[02:42] <N3OInc>  Best graphical Firewall for Notifications and granularity? Opinions anyone??
[02:42] <mechdave> The last bit is where I put in a blank disk
[02:42] <larry> HELLO
[02:42] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: If it does it again then what?
[02:42] <musikgoat> N3OInc: I believe firestarter is the common iptables front end
[02:42] <Berkin> ew
[02:43] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: file a bug on launchpad.net
[02:43] <N3OInc> musikgoat: Heard, Thank you.
[02:43] <Travis> i have no Squideshi, let me go there
[02:43] <Berkin> ewwwww
[02:43] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: So I would have to install like 9.04 or something?
[02:44] <Travis> Thanks.  Am going to go there
[02:44] <zaoul> why is xterm-256color not default?
[02:44] <zaoul> Pushing 2010 and we default to 8bit term colors?
[02:44] <keppi> I enabled desktop compositing and my screen got scrambled.  How do I turn it off from the terminal?
[02:44] <zaoul> srsly?
[02:44] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: why 9.04, did that work for you?
[02:44] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: whatever works
[02:45] <Wilabob> ChogyDan: would installing 9.04 then updating possibly work?
[02:45] <zaoul> keppi: sudo su, enter your pass... then open up /etc/X11/xorg.conf and comment out the compositing line
[02:45] <ChogyDan> Wilabob: ya.  And then just forget about grub2 for now
[02:45] <zaoul> yea no good answer?
[02:45] <zaoul> nobody likes 256 term colors?
[02:45] <zaoul> pff
[02:45] <franc> !svenska
[02:45] <zaoul> fine, rot your eyes out
[02:46] <franc> !swedish
[02:46] <Guest80892> hi
[02:46] <Thermoelectric> ANy idea on how to upgrade Ubuntu 9.04 to 9.10 using a normal installer (iso) (not the alternate installer, like http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading says I should use)?
[02:46] <keppi> zaoul:  I looked for /etc/X11/xorg.conf and I didn't see the file.  Running xubuntu if that makes a difference
[02:46] <zaoul> keppi: tab completion is your friend
[02:46] <ChogyDan> Thermoelectric: you would have to just reinstall.  You cant upgrade
[02:47] <Thermoelectric> ChogyDan: So I would lose the system preferences and all that stuff if I reinstall?
[02:47] <ChogyDan> Thermoelectric: not necessarily
[02:48] <userone1> just been reading some forums and came across a good point about music editors; the advantage of using linux is that I can download all of audacity, ardour and rosegarden and just use the best tool for the job! better than paying for a commercial app only to discover it can only do 60% of what i need.
[02:49] <poyntz> hi folks
[02:49] <userone1> wgrant: thanks for your 'help'.
[02:49] <poyntz> I've installed KDE desktop, but the trash can doesn't support drag/drop. Any way to fix this?
[02:50] <jussi01> poyntz: ask in #kubuntu
[02:50] <poyntz> jussi01: ty
[02:50] <Alan502> good night, a friend wants to install ubuntu in his macintosh. Is there any helpful tutorial i can give him?
[02:50] <jussi01> !mac | Alan502
[02:51] <jussi01> hrm, no
[02:51] <Alan502> jussi01, thats not about it
[02:52] <jussi01> Alan502: no, it isnt, wait a sec
[02:52] <Alan502> jussi01, can the normal ubuntu cd be used to install on a mac?
[02:52] <musikgoat> Alan502: is it an older mac, or an intel one?
[02:52] <musikgoat> !ppc | Alan502
[02:52] <jussi01> Alan502: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook
[02:53] <flootenkerp> Can anyone please help me install this usplash http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Azenis%20Usplash?content=111188 on my startup manager?
[02:53] <mphill> how can i find out repo a  package that is trying to install is in?
[02:53] <flootenkerp> I'm not sure how to do it.
[02:53] <bastidrazor> mphill: apt-cache policy  packagename
[02:53] <flootenkerp> If someone could explain, that would be great.
[02:54] <Alan502> musikgoat, jussi01 ; thanks a lot  :)
[02:54] <jussi01> Alan502: :)
[02:55] <Alan502> jussi01, sorry its an older mac! anyway will that tutorial work?
[02:55] <fvs> banished: regressions?
[02:55] <flootenkerp> Can anyone please help me install this usplash http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Azenis%20Usplash?content=111188 on my startup manager?
[02:56] <JoshV> Hi, I am currently running Hardy and would like to overwrite it with Karmic without erasing the contents of my user folder. Right now, I'm running on the Karmic LiveCD, ready to install. The closest install option I'm presented with is "erase and use entire disk," but I'm afraid that will delete my home folder.
[02:56] <jussi01> Alan502: find out iff its a power pc version, if it is see the link from the other person before.
[02:56] <JoshV> Will it? If so, any suggestions?
[02:56] <N3OInc> flootenkerp: Im installing it now, I'll see if I can help
[02:56] <musikgoat> JoshV: yes
[02:56] <flootenkerp> okay, thanks
[02:56] <musikgoat> JoshV:  do you see manual partitioning or guided partitioning?
[02:57] <JoshV> I see manual, yes
[02:57] <Kirsch> hey all is it possible to move the last login message after the MOTD?
[02:57] <JoshV> Do I just specify that it should use the current ext3 partition without format?
[02:57] <musikgoat> JoshV: use manual, and you can then overwrite your / and swap, and leave /home alone
[02:57] <JoshV> I don't remember allocating swap space in Hardy. Was it optional at the time?
[02:58] <musikgoat> JoshV: its always optional, but recommended
[02:58] <N3OInc> Guys, whats a .so file?
[02:58] <mechdave> Has anyone managed to remove wodim and install cdrtools-2.0 with success?
[02:58] <JoshV> Also, I'd like to point out that you said /home alone.
[02:59] <JoshV> Anyway, thanks.
[02:59] <musikgoat> :P
[02:59] <N3OInc> Some kind of library file.
[02:59] <flootenkerp> Isn't .so the file for usplash's?
[02:59] <N3OInc> I dont see that splash going in my friend.
[03:00] <N3OInc> Yeah.. The splashes on ubuntu's site are just pngs
[03:00] <flootenkerp> Oh... well, I'm not sure how to use splashes at all.
[03:00] <flootenkerp> Mind telling me how?
[03:00] <JoshV> What's recommended swap, again?
[03:00] <ixian__> ??
[03:00] <JoshV> I'd like to resize sda1 to make room for some
[03:00] <N3OInc> Honestly. I have no idea. I am walking through the Appearance settings as we speak.
[03:01] <musikgoat> JoshV: usually same size as RAM if you want to hibernate
[03:01] <kbp> does anyone know which repository server doesnt limit the speed? My one is au and it never goes up higher than 50KB/s, which is !@#$
[03:01] <flootenkerp> oh, okay.
[03:02] <flootenkerp> Whoa
[03:02] <MacAttack> WTF was that
[03:02] <husinjalal> split?
[03:02] <IdleOne> !netsplit
[03:02] <N3OInc> yeag
[03:02] <musikgoat> kbp: try ranom ones in your region like the southeast countries and such
[03:02] <MacAttack> sorry im new to irc lol
[03:02] <JoshV> All right, it wants to write the resize to disk immediately. I assume I should permit that, and can trust it not to format, yes?
[03:02] <flootenkerp> N30inc, if you figure out, please PM me. I'm very lost on how to install these things :p
[03:02] <JoshV> Honestly I'd be surprised otherwise, but er
[03:03] <musikgoat> JoshV: it will only format what you have instructed it to, for a manual
[03:03] <MacAttack> how do i find out the kinda of ram i have
[03:04] <N3OInc> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[03:05] <Wallace> what app should i use to retrieve email from my isp (for e.g. via pop3) and dump it into the local mail system
[03:05] <banished_> Hi, how to install cdrtools?
[03:06] <poseidon> I'm using Document Viewer 2.28.1 on ubuntu 9.10 to view the pdf at the following location http://www.ugrad.vcu.edu/pdfs/090923-01_postbacc_app.pdf
[03:06] <poseidon> However, it says that multiple files are bundled together and asks me if I want to download the newest acrobat reader
[03:06] <poseidon> Is there an foss alternative that will work?
[03:08] <mechdave> Wallace, you could use postfix for relaying mail
[03:08] <N3OInc> Is Notepad++ a bad idea in Linux?
[03:08] <banished_> N3OInc: is there a linux version at all?
[03:08] <recursion> How can I change the name of my Ubuntu Machine?
[03:08] <Wallace> mechdave - i don't want to relay, I want to receive local email....somebody already told me to use fetchmail :)
[03:09] <Cuddles> slack
[03:09] <eraldo> How will Ubuntu partition my hdd if I chose "use the entire disk"?
[03:09] <bastidrazor> recursion: change it in /etc/hostname
[03:09] <musikgoat> security.ubuntu.com seems to be back up, for anyone that was missing it the past few hours
[03:10] <recursion> bastidrazor: thanks, let me try it, hold on...
[03:10] <mechdave> Wallace, you can use evolution and set it up for local mbox
[03:10] <trism_> N3OInc: it's not that it's a bad idea, it will probably run fine with wine, but you may want to try out the various linux native editors to see if one of those will work for you
[03:10] <mechdave> irc_conf_mode off
[03:10] <mechdave> oops
[03:11] <Wallace> mechdave: i use thunderbird, and I'm setting up imap on my server, so that I can read my email from any of my machines/oses
[03:11] <[-jon-]_> how can I rewrite grub to my ubuntu install
[03:11] <N3OInc> trism_: Thanks for the input, could you possibly direct me towards one?"
 I'm in that right now.
[03:12] <[-jon-]_> I need to rewrite grub for my ubuntu install. How can I do this?
[03:12] <sync3times> Wallace, fetchmail?
[03:12] <banished_> N3OInc: geany
[03:12] <Wallace> mechdave: well yes, but i'll also be vpning in
[03:13] <mvalviar> Hi. I can't switch users. I get "Unable to start new display" everytime I try. Please help. I've looked everywhere for this.
[03:13] <trism_> N3OInc: apparently scite is supposed to be similar in features, I haven't tried it myself though, gedit is pretty configurable, and of course there are always vim and emacs which are a bit more complicated, but powerful too
[03:14] <mechdave> Wallace, you need to set up a mail relay to check for pop3 messages from your ISP and also to send (relay) messages to your isp, but be careful, if you make a mistake in the setup it could be used as a spam relay for those nasty people :)
[03:14] <N3OInc> trism_: Heard thank you, I shall check it out.
[03:14] <recursion> bastidrazor: that worked surprisingly well. 7 free internets for you!
[03:14] <banished> Has anyone else experienced a massive slowdown in graphics performance with ubuntu 9.10 and the radeon driver?
[03:14] <eatloaf> Hi.  How do I launch a program with a terminal window?
[03:15] <sync3times> eatloaf, rxvt -e program
[03:15] <mechdave> eatloaf, just type the name of the program
[03:15] <Wallace> mechdave: correct - i already have postfix installed.  outgoing mail can go directly to the isp from the mail client, and don't worry about relaying, smtp is firewalled off from the outside anyway
[03:15] <kermit_> hi there, im failed to mount into my hard disk after i am using live cd, any body can describe what should i do?
[03:15] <banished> compiz is rendered useless while it worked smoothly with ubuntu 9.04
[03:15] <[-jon-]_> I need to rewrite grub for my ubuntu install. How can I do this?
[03:16] <mechdave> Wallace, well all you have to do now is to get postfix to get messages from your isp
[03:16] <N3OInc> kermit_: which live cd, Ubuntu? Which version?
[03:16] <eatloaf> mechdave: it's getting launched automatically when i insert a cd, but i want a terminal to pop up rather than it run in the background.
[03:16] <Wallace> mechdave: to clarify - i want incoming email to be retrieved by my server and then made available locally via imap.  outgoing mail is direct to isp via smtp
[03:16] <Jordan_U> !grub | [-jon-]_
[03:16] <Wallace> mechdave: yes, i want postfix to get messages from my isp - i thought i needed something else for that - i.e. fetchmail.  will postfix do the retrieval for me?
[03:17] <eatloaf> sync3times, mechdave: xterm -e program seems to be what i'm looking for. thanks!
[03:17] <blinding_lights> hi so i have a question
[03:17] <sgtpwner> is anybody herE?
[03:17] <musikgoat> no
[03:17] <sync3times> eatloaf, :)
[03:17] <Wallace> !ask | blinding_lights
[03:17] <kermit_> i already upgrade into karmic, and the shipit cd came yesterday to my house and i am using boot from live cd
[03:17] <andrez_> andy body got using pyroom? got a question, it cannot be launched , whether in gnome, e16, or awesome
[03:18] <blinding_lights> why is it when i try to install a game on my pc it gives me an error message
[03:18] <Wallace> blinding_lights, what game? what os? and what error message?
[03:18] <sync3times> heh
[03:19] <mechdave> eatloaf, no worries
[03:19] <mechdave> Wallace, try this page --> http://www.postfix.org/faq.html#poppers
[03:19] <sgtpwner> i am having a problem i have 3 ubuntu computers and none of them can see eachother in the network but we can ping each other so what do i have to do to see the computers? (im fairly new to linux and the person with me has not used linux in about 17 years so he forgot quite a bit)
[03:19] <Wallace> mechdave, will do, thx
[03:20] <Wallace> sgtpwner: what do you mean by "can't see" if you can ping them?
[03:20] <banished> sgtpwner: what do you mean by "see each other?" Samba shares?
[03:20] <Wallace> snap!
[03:20] <blinding_lights> nancy drew ubuntu and Archive:  /media/cdrom0/Setup.exe
[03:20] <blinding_lights> [/media/cdrom0/Setup.exe]
[03:20] <blinding_lights>   End-of-central-directory signature not found
[03:21] <bastidrazor> !appdb | blinding_lights
[03:21] <sgtpwner> no shamba does not work for some reason i think it sis for mainly linux to windows and i mean can't see as in cannot browse their files and they are not visible in the network
[03:21] <Wallace> blinding_lights, "setup.exe" ?  are you sure it isn't a windows game?
[03:21] <blinding_lights> oh thanks
[03:21] <blinding_lights> :)
[03:21] <banished> sgtpwner: if samba is now working, how do you expect to browse thair files?
[03:21] <N3OInc> Hey is Cedega still live?
[03:22] <Zombie> Would anyone familiar with the Hard drive bug on Ubuntu?
[03:22] <sgtpwner> samba does not fix anything tat is what i mean
[03:22] <ardchoille> Wallace: It is a windows file
[03:22] <musikgoat> Zombie: i doubt there is only one hard drive bug in ubuntu...
[03:22] <alfer> salve ki mi darebbe una mano con ubuntu???
[03:22] <curtis> sup
[03:23] <banished> sgtpwner: but samba is for "browsing files" the way you describe it
[03:23] <ardchoille> !it
[03:23] <N3OInc> Do I need to uninstal qufw to use firestarter?
[03:23] <sgtpwner> no i mean once i installed samba nothing changed
[03:23] <banished> !it | alfer
[03:23] <banished> oO
[03:23] <Zombie> I mean, I run 9.04, and I am concerned about the hard drive "thrashing bug"
[03:23] <sgtpwner> and i think samba is mainly for unix to windows
[03:24] <musikgoat> Zombie: i thought that was squashed long ago
[03:24] <Zombie> sgtpwner: I use Samba for Unix to Unix file transfer all the time.
[03:24] <Zombie> With Kerberos
[03:24] <DigitalKiwi> why?
[03:24] <b0n1> double r[3]; r={2,0,0}; what with these commands in c ?
[03:25] <sgtpwner> but i cannot see the computer that i want to send the file to i can although i can ping them
[03:25] <musikgoat> yeah, its a crappy protocol, but so be it
[03:25] <moymoy> Zombie: samba can sometimes throttle your =[ .. i've had much luck with NFS, but i have no idea how to use the NFS client included in windows
[03:25] <b0n1> i get warning: extendend initializer lists only available with....
[03:26] <musikgoat> b0n1: you can ask in #ubuntu-programming
[03:26] <rudraksh> Hello:
[03:26] <sgtpwner> hi
[03:27] <sgtpwner> so anyone have similar problems to me?
[03:27] <bastidrazor> !sshfs | sgtpwner may be a guide to help.
[03:27] <gdiz> hey, I know this is a dumb question but I am trying to get to the rhythmbox plugin folder.  where can I find that?
[03:27] <Fezzler> Ugraded to 9.10.  Telling on boot one harddrive is failing.  Never had this issue before.  Help?
[03:28] <bastidrazor> sgtpwner: do you have openssh-server installed on the ubuntu machines?
[03:28] <Fezzler> Other than that, upgrade was smooth.
[03:28] <sgtpwner> bastidrazor: no
[03:28] <Jordan_U> Fezzler: "Telling on boot one harddrive is failing." Can you rephrase that?
[03:28] <eatloaf> Hi, I locked my rsync at 2.6.9 and now everytime I use aptitude i get this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/325051/  I never got this when rsync was locked in 9.04.  How do i fix this?
[03:29] <_Dasda> anyone have good experience with word processors? I really dont like OpenOffice grammar checker at all. I actually take my assignments from laptop (ubuntu) to desktop(xp+word). i end up finding and correcting so many errors in word. Anyone know of a really good grammar and spell checker for ubuntu? Its the most important thing for me because I need to do work for school
[03:29] <Fezzler> Jordan_U>> When I first log in, a pop up appears that says one of my harddrives may be failing
[03:29] <N3OInc> Do I need to uninstal qufw to use firestarter?
[03:29] <Jordan_U> Fezzler: Then it likely is
[03:30] <Fezzler> Jordan_U>> Icon at top says it has "many bad sectors."
[03:30] <Fezzler> Jordan_U>> Don't think so
[03:30] <musikgoat> N3OInc: you should only use one particular firewall software, im not sure if having both will bother anything
[03:30] <Jordan_U> Fezzler: Why don't you think so?
[03:30] <banished>
[03:30] <sgtpwner> _dasda: you can try using word through wine on your ubuntu laptop
[03:31] <Fezzler> Jordan_U>> I only have one HD in computer.  Brand news
[03:31] <Zombie> My lapto have as a load cycle count of 58444
[03:31] <banished> _Dasda: there are plugins for openoffice
[03:31] <Veinor> yeah, I'm pretty sure that having multiple firewalls will break things in hilarious and unexpected ways
[03:31] <_Dasda> sgtpwner: yea thats what i was thinking, Oh god, my life will never be free of ms
[03:31] <_Dasda> banished: oh I never knew that
[03:32] <_Dasda> banished: are they available at openoffice home website?
[03:32] <N3OInc> musikgoat: Thanks again mate.
[03:32] <sgtpwner> _Dasda: i think maybe using google and some searching you could probably find a good native ubuntu app
[03:32] <musikgoat> i'm not sure if the ms office stuff will work through wine... its got some deep hooks into the windows OS
[03:32] <banished> _Dasda: at least there is a comercial plugin by the german Duden verlag, but I think it's only availiable in german..
[03:32] <_Dasda> sgtpwner: i've thout about abiword, heard some good stuff about it
[03:33] <musikgoat> star office is another one to check out
[03:33] <sgtpwner> i can't help you i am still relatively new to unix myself
[03:33] <Name141> Does ATI work as well as nVidia ? (although I guess this is an opinion? )
[03:33] <musikgoat> sgtpwner: you shouldn't call this unix :)
[03:33] <Jordan_U> Fezzler: You can check the smart data with another tool / OS but that information is coming dirctly from the hardware itself. I'd back up anything important
[03:33] <Name141> in terms of there being drivers avalable
[03:33] <sgtpwner> Name141:nvidia is my preference
[03:33] <poseidon> I'm trying to use evince to view the pdf at http://www.ugrad.vcu.edu/pdfs/090923-01_postbacc_app.pdf
[03:33] <banished> Name141: the proprietary nvidia driver is still the best OpenGL driver avaliable for Linux
[03:33] <ZykoticK9> Name141, not even close -- avoid ATI
[03:33] <_Dasda> msikgoat: thanks ill try that too
[03:34] <N3OInc> Individual installs of MSO2K7 will fly in Wine, but they need to be installed as instances and individually, and its a mess to cross-combine
[03:34] <musikgoat> Name141: nvidia is most peoples preference, definately avoid ati
[03:34] <_Dasda> I would like to make my desktop ubuntu also but only Word is holding me back
[03:34] <poseidon> But it says "Multiple files are bound together in this PDF Package." then it says that adobe recommends that I use their acrobat reader software to view the pdf
[03:34] <N3OInc> ...Or at least I read it
[03:34] <_Dasda> cause i dont wanna fail my uni classes. lol :)
[03:34] <Name141> Well, I have a 300 watt power supply and the 4550 will work better than the 9400 GT it seems.
[03:34] <ska178> is there a way to play a game on a windows partition through ubuntu without problems? i read wine wouldn't work for that...
[03:34] <Name141> as in for games, HD playback
[03:34] <N3OInc> Does Ubuntu 9.10 Salt hashes by default?
[03:34] <sgtpwner> Name141: if you are into gaming nvidia is the best choice although there are certain ati cards that are quite good
[03:34] <banished> ska178: wine works for that
[03:35] <Name141> sgtpwner: I took a look at the 4550 seems to do better than the 9400 GT.
[03:35] <poseidon> _Dasda, I'm looking forward to college next year because I was hoping it would be less dependent on ms than in HS
[03:35] <ska178> banished: so I'd be able to get into World of Warcraft through ubuntu, using wine without any problems?
[03:35] <Name141> sgtpwner: although if I want to make the move to linux again, it appears I am going to have trouble?
[03:35] <ScottG> When I run `sudo echo $PATH` my /home/user/bin folder shows up. However, when I run sudo <some program in ~/bin> I get the error "sudo: <prog.sh>: command not found" Why is this? It is obviously in my $PATH so why would it not be found?
[03:35] <musikgoat> Name141: eh, hanging around here, I will tell you that if at all possible, avoid ATI
[03:35] <Name141> musikgoat: OK.
[03:35] <sgtpwner> iName141: the 9000 series is not that great its basically a repacked version of 8000 series
[03:36] <_Dasda> poseidon, there is aplugin i found for a dictionary to spellcheck. http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/en_US-dict    but still grammar is missing
[03:36] <_Dasda> u can give that a try too
[03:36] <banished> ska178: WoW is platinum in wine, so i guess so
[03:36] <Jordan_U> _Dasda: Even word's grammar checker is worthless IMHO, if you really need to ask another human to check your essays for grammar.
[03:36] <Name141> sgtpwner: I currently have a 8300 GS that uh.. peters out in Half-Life2: Episode 2
[03:36] <ska178> banished: thank you for your help, i thought wine could just run windows programs using ubuntu..not with a windows mount
[03:37] <_Dasda> honestly guys, there are alot of plugins for the problem i have
[03:37] <sgtpwner> really? one of my comps is 2gig ddr1 6800gs and it runs hl2 at about max graphics 1900x1600
[03:37] <_Dasda> i gotta give them a try now
[03:37] <_Dasda> thanks for letting me know openoffice has plugins
[03:37] <Name141> sgtpwner: HL2 is different
[03:37] <banished> ska178: well, if your applications is on a ntfs partition you can mount it of cause - or install it using wine on your linux partition
[03:38] <Name141> sgtpwner: Loast coast is where I start noticing trouble

[03:38] <Ryan9104> anyone have any problems getting their webcam to work on 9.10 and fix it?
[03:38] <sgtpwner> hmm
[03:38] <sgtpwner> well maybe you should try turning resolution down a touch
[03:38] <banished> Ryan9104: which webcam?
[03:38] <Gibbster> Hi guys. Since upgrading to 9.10 I've noticed that the audio in VLC playback is really choppy. Any ideas?

[03:39] <Ryan9104> everything is being detected
[03:39] <wonderboy> is there a graphical frontend for pppoeconf in 9.04?
[03:39] <Name141> musikgoat: Why are the ATI drivers the work of the devil for linux ?
[03:39] <Ryan9104> Bus 002 Device 002: ID 046d:0870 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Express
[03:40] <sgtpwner> Gibbster:yeah sometimes during upgrades certain files et removed
[03:40] <xenome> is there a way to undo the last apt-get install?  I want to remove the package I installed and all the other junk it put on
[03:40] <sgtpwner> *get
[03:40] <ska178> banished: the wine faq is telling me i'd have to reinstall world of warcraft, and i can't use the windows partition..
[03:40] <musikgoat> Name141: because ATI is closed source by nature
[03:40] <Name141> musikgoat: I thought the nVidia driver was too?
[03:40] <N3OInc> name141: edit the conf manually for the fancy toys.

[03:41] <sam_> how do you find out if your running 32 bit ubuntu or 64 bit?
[03:41] <Name141> OK.  So on a 300 watt I'm probably looking at 9400 GT, or the 220 ?
[03:41] <Monocian> Can anyone tell me where to find Startup applications in Xubuntu ? :)
[03:41] <uvacav> N30Inc: hello :)
[03:41] <sgtpwner> Has anyone had this issue: one unix computer cannot see another unix computer
[03:41] <N3OInc> I'm banned from a channel I have never been in
[03:42] <N3OInc> uvacav: is that channel invite only or something? Lol
[03:42] <musikgoat> Name141: maybe, you haven't considered upgrading to a 450w or something?
[03:42] <musikgoat> N3OInc: are you registered?
[03:42] <banished> Ryan9104: so cheese is not working?
[03:42] <Name141> musikgoat: Dell claims it will provide too much power to the motherboard if I was to upgrade and void my warranty.  Then they go on saying I can run a 9500GT rated at a 350watt min power supply that wouldn't void the warranty.
[03:42] <sam_> how do you find out if your running 32 bit ubuntu or 64 bit?
[03:42] <N3OInc> musikgoat: No... Maybe thats it
[03:43] <Name141> musikgoat: Now , as a cusomer..How am I supposed to make sense of that ?
[03:43] <musikgoat> !register | N3OInc

[03:44] <ghem> I need to be able to see the different options (memtest, safe mode)
[03:44] <Name141> musikgoat: that's what i say.. Why is it going to say "ooh look maw, I have a whole nother 150 watts I can use!! yay!! lets blow it!"
[03:44] <Name141> musikgoat: but we are also talking about dell here.
[03:44] <Jordan_U> ghem: Hold shift during boot
[03:44] <Name141> (if you know what I mean)
[03:44] <sam_> i686 is 32 bit?
[03:44] <musikgoat> right, they are just dumb and want you to upgrade your computer
[03:44] <maco> sam_: yes
[03:44] <banished> Ryan9104: you might try http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3856516#post3856516/
[03:45] <ghem> Jordan_U, thanks ill try
[03:45] <Name141> musikgoat: They tried to sell me an XPS also cause the "heat doesn't disapate in my systems setup"
[03:45] <musikgoat> Name141: on that note though, some dell's dont abide by ATX standards, so you should really investigate others attempts at upgrading
[03:45] <musikgoat> haha
[03:45] <Ryan9104> banished: look at the date.
[03:45] <Ryan9104> banished: I have tried it and then realized all of that stuff is in the kernel now
[03:46] <ghem> worked :)
[03:46] <banished> Ryan9104: yes, I was wondering that it might be
[03:46] <Name141> musikgoat: this isn't the slim version of the 530 Inspiron
[03:46] <N3OInc> Is there a simple way to do "Tile windows vert/horizontally" in Buntu
[03:46] <Name141> musikgoat: The power supply is a Bestek ATXsomethingsomethingsoon
[03:46] <ska178> is there a way in to run WoW (already installed on windows xp) through ubuntu or will i have to install the game seperately on ubuntu?
[03:46] <banished> N3OInc: you might use a tiling window manager ;-)
[03:46] <silliness> !zoneminder
[03:46] <silliness> !info zoneminder
[03:46] <Krstnsn> so this 500gb usb external has be shrinking the partition to 230 GB for 3hrs... does that seem ok?

[03:46] <Gibbster> sgtpwner: is the ubuntu-restricted-extras package sufficient for the codecs for the dvd for my choppiness problem?

[03:47] <wonderboy> whats the easiest/standard gui way to configure pppoe in jaunty?
[03:47] <Ryan9104> banished: still doesn't work in cheese.
[03:47] <banished> wonderboy: Network manager
[03:47] <sgtpwner> Gibbster: i think so but my favorite codec pack is the cccp one (it might be ccpp)
[03:47] <Ryan9104> banished: it doesn't show any camera devices in the programs.
[03:47] <banished> Ryan9104: any console output?
[03:47] <Hibbidy> ska178: I play WoW in Ubuntu...I just copied install folder from XP into my Wine program files directory.  Works great.
[03:48] <wonderboy> banished: can it handle the pppoe username and password configurations too?
[03:48] <Gibbster> sgtpwner: thanks. I'll try that

[03:48] <sgtpwner> Gibbster:welcome
[03:48] <banished> wonderboy: ofcause
[03:48] <ska178> hibbidy: do i have to copy the directory in order for it to correctly play on ubuntu? i was hoping to avoid that
[03:48] <wonderboy> banished: ok.. thanks..
[03:48] <Name141> musikgoat: some people have complained about the bestek in HP and Dell system , and Bestek in general saying no matter if I buy a video card the PSU is a "ticking time bomb" and needs to be replaced ASAP. *shrug*
[03:48] <banished> ska178: what happens if you start it from the windows partition?
[03:49] <Ryan9104> banished: http://pastebin.com/m3b1f73a1
[03:50] <sam_> isn't 32 bit i386? and 64bit i686?
[03:50] <Hibbidy> ska178: I've since wiped XP from my system otherwise I'd give it a try.
[03:50] <ska178> hibbidy: thank you banished: one sec, i'll give it a try
[03:51] <microlith> sam_: i386 is a generic x86 32-bit compatibility arch, i686 is optimized for pentium-pro class processors or better
[03:51] <microlith> 64-bit is x86_64
[03:51] <sam_> ok
[03:51] <banished> well, i368 is i368 class CPUs or better, to be exact ;-)

[04:08] <banished> gaffo_home: fglrx is the proprietary one, it's not as nice as the nvida driver (by far) but still better than the current open xorg driver
[04:08] <hyperstream> isnt nvidia more supported
[04:08] <danijel5> i'm install and configured samba but i think that i'm maybe in wrong with wins

[04:11] <SirTopHat> my ubuntu laptop here, it used to recognize SD cards, but now it doesn't. I also used to work with the sound but that's also gone
[04:11] <surgy> ZykoticK9: ok my psx controller (hooked up through a usb adaptor) is working perfect. my xbox 360 gamepad is not doing anything
[04:12] <SirTopHat> I think this has something to do with erasing "toshiba system volume"
[04:12] <rroblak> what's the recommended way to disable init scripts?
[04:12] <Wallace> anybody know of an alternative to fetchmail for retrieving email via pop3?
[04:12] <ZykoticK9> surgy, sorry man can't/won't help with 360 pad -- hopefully someone else knows about that
[04:12] <rroblak> delete the symlink?  change permissions?  update-rc.d?  change permissions?
[04:12] <surgy> can someone help me get my xbox 360 gamepad to work please?
[04:13] <sync3times> Wallace, so what is the beef with fetchmail?
[04:13] <Wallace> sync3times, it retrieves *all* of my email every time...even with nofetchall set :(
[04:14] <sync3times> Wallace, you are telling it to leave mail on the server?
[04:14] <Wallace> sync3times, yes, but even so, it should only retrieve messages which haven't been seen before
[04:15] <SirTopHat> is it possible ubuntuy was dependant on files in the partition "Toshiba system volume" to use some hardware?
[04:15] <sync3times> Wallace, but why would you do that.   If you just want to read mail, use google
[04:15] <pieces> So I have two desktops, one is sharing files and the other is able to access all the shares except the ones on an external drive.  When I try to access these it says "Unable to mount windows share"  Can someone please help?
[04:16] <Magnesium> Monocian: Hey Monocian, did you ever get your discs working?
[04:16] <gobyfish> hello,everybody
[04:16] <Wallace> sync3times, yuck, not going near googlemail....i have a mail account at my isp - i want to retrieve it locally, and then make it available via imap
[04:17] <sync3times> Wallace, fine, then why are you leaving it to build up on the isp server?
[04:17] <Wallace> sync3times, i got it all sorted, except for the part where it retrieves all messages every time - despite the option not to do so :\
[04:17] <zerq> i ran into the ugly side of gmail the other day, sent a mail to a craigslist address and suddenly my account was locked and had to enter my mobile number and get them to sms me a validation code.. and i don't have a mobile phone <.<
[04:17] <porter1> rroblak, I believe update-rc.d should work just fine
[04:17] <Wallace> sync3times, cus I don't trust it yet - i might want to fall back to pop3 directly from thunderbird to isp
[04:18] <zerq> as convenient as webmail is.. that made me want to go back to the oldschool way asap
[04:18] <Wallace> sync3times, isp deletes it after a month anyway
[04:18] <sync3times> Wallace, ah
[04:19] <Wallace> sync3times, so....if fetchmail did what it said, and "nofetchall" retrieved just the unseen messages, everything would be happy.  but for some reason, nofetchall is having no effect :(
[04:19] <sync3times> Wallace, does your isp support forwarding your mail to another account?
[04:19] <nbc> bye
[04:19] <Wallace> sync3times, i can't figure it out, so i wanna try something else
[04:19] <Wallace> sync3times, no, no forwarding
[04:19] <LordDragon> hey guys. anyone know of a way to generate those special chars like "squared" or spanish letters etc?

[04:21] <zerq> wonder if hushmail offers free pop3..
